An inside-fastball controversy usually starts with some unwritten rules. Or with the unspoken references to the unwritten rules, which might have even been broken. Or with an unwitting manager unknowingly giving the appearance that he was appealing to the unwritten rules. With Derek Lowe and Dusty Baker, though, it looks like this is a tale of two dudes who loathe each other.
On Wednesday, Derek Lowe stepped up to the plate in the fifth inning for the Indians. The first pitch:
Lowe pointed to the dugout, where Baker reportedly shook his finger, as if to say, "No, no. Not me." Lowe isn't buying that:
This goes back to my last year with the Dodgers. (Baker) made up some [bogus] story. A lot of people got involved. People almost got fired over it. You can go ask him right now and he'll say he has no idea what you're talking about.
What an unbelievable tease. Dusty Baker made up something about Derek Lowe and spread it around, possibly with notes in class. Or Dusty Baker related something completely true, and Lowe has to pretend it's invented. What is it. Whaaaaaat. C'mon. Give us a hint.
More Lowe:
"I have zero respect for the guy — not that it matters. I imagine he'd say the same about me. But the [stuff] that was being said and the denials that he ended up ultimately doing was pretty sad. I'll just leave it at that."
Here's the point in the story where reporters shuffle over to the other clubhouse and see if they can get a quote from the manager in question. The manager will say things like, "Well, that's his opinion." And, "Look, I don't want to make an issue out of this. I wasn't trying to hit him." Right? Take it away, Dusty:
"He had some words for me. I really didn't want to make a public thing or a public spectacle. He's the one who brought it up. He had some choice words for me. I really don't care if he respects me. It doesn't matter."
See? Doesn't want to make it a thing. Everyone move on.
"I told (Mat Latos) to buzz him and make him uncomfortable. That's what happened."
Uh, wait.
"Man, I don't care," Baker said. "A lot of people don't respect me. He don't respect himself. The word was whatever he did and said probably there was a good chance he was drinking at the ballpark and he don't remember what he said or what he did. OK."
A phonograph needle screeches. The clubhouse gapes at Baker for a bit before feeling uncomfortable and avoiding eye contact. Did a major-league manager really say that?
And in the series of quotes, Baker continually references this event, or this rumor. All we have to do is guess. One time, my college roommate cheated during a game of Battleship by noting the spot of my destroyer in the reflection of my glasses. Might be something like that. But this sounds so damned juicy and salacious, and all we can do is guess.
Guess, and note that Derek Lowe and Dusty Baker don't like each other. As much as any manager/player combo from opposing teams haven't liked each other. Unfortunately, it'll be a while before Lowe starts against a Baker-managed team again, unless there's an all-Ohio World Series.
Until then, we'll spend far too much time wondering what Lowe thinks Baker made up about him. That's not an everyday bone of contention between a player and an opposing, folks. It's completely bizarre, and I demand answers. At least a hint? Here's a twenty. No, a fifty. Stomp your foot once if it has to do with the unwritten rules. C'mon.

Remove Ashley Broadway as the Fort Bragg Spouse of the Year
Ashley Broadway has been named the Fort Bragg Spouse of the Year and will be competing for Military Spouse of the Year. But she is not a Military Spouse. She is the lesbian partner of a soldier in the Army stationed at Fort Bragg. She does not hold an ID card, and her marriage is not recognized by the military, this country, or the state she is representing. The award needs to be given to a true, deserving Army spouse.

Pioneer BDP-35 Album
Jun 29, 2014 | By Sheila
I've been using these albums for 32 years and continue to use them - I am so glad you continue to make this same album, as the assortment of colors on my bookshelf in the same style looks very nice. I love that there is plenty of space to write. The quality of books now doesn't seem to be quite the same as 32 years ago, but it still is very good, but I love the archival acid free photo safe feature and will continue to buy as long as they are made.

I like almost everything about the album, but I am disappointed that they are not of the loose leaf album design where you can change order of photos if necessary. You cannot do this with these albums. I should have noted this when I ordered the albums. Thank you.

Vince Wilfork had one hell of a game as the New England Patriots advanced to the Super Bowl by the skin of their teeth with a 23-20 win over the Baltimore Ravens. The big man in the middle was everywhere for the Pats, swallowing up Ray Rice on multiple occasions and generally being an absolute terror.
So it would figure that Wilfork was the centerpiece of the ultimate celebration gif following the win. It's cold in New England and Wilfork was hot, leading to a smoldering pile of man with his arms extended in jubilation.
You are now terrified, and that's perfectly fine.

Updated Mar 4, 2013 - 6:41 am
Analyst: Daniel Briere would be a good fit with the Phoenix Coyotes
Originally published: Mar 3, 2013 - 11:11 am
While the Coyotes have not struggled to score the puck in 2013 (2.9 goals per game), the team has not quite with the same level of consistency it did a season ago when it reached the Western Conference Finals.
General manager Don Maloney has not been shy over the past year when it comes to adding centers (Antoine Vermette and Matthew Lombardi) who can push the puck and create chances at the offensive end of the ice, yet the Coyotes could certainly still use an extra piece or two as they look to make their fourth straight trip to the postseason.
Former NHL veteran and current Rogers Sportsnet analyst Brad May recently suggested that a certain top-line center would be a perfect fit for Maloney and Co. before the league's April 3 trade deadline.
That center would be former Coyote Daniel Briere.
Briere is still under contract with the Philadelphia Flyers until the end of the 2014-15 season and even said this week he had no desire to waive his no-trade clause. Still the 35-year-old is a potent playmaker with more than 800 games and 650 career points to his name.
The Quebec native was originally drafted by Phoenix in 1996 and played parts of five seasons with the Coyotes. While he recorded 53 goals and 47 assists during his time in Phoenix, Briere didn't reach his All-Star potential until stops in Buffalo and Philadelphia.
It's an intriguing thought nonetheless, and one fans in the Valley would likely welcome with open arms.

West Point, N.Y. - March 6, 2010 - The Springfield College men's gymnastics team scored a team season-high 335.900 points this afternoon and went on to defeat Army and Brockport in a meet at the U.S. Military Academy. Army finished second with 325.000 points, followed by Brockport at 286.350.
With the wins, Springfield has raised its record to 15-5 on the season, and remains a perfect 5-0 versus Army.
Ty Evans and Josh Fox were once again dominant for the Pride, finishing 1-2 in the all-around. Evans scored 84.500 points, Fox 84.150.
Evans had a great day, placing in the top six in all six events. He took first in the high bar with a score of 14.200. He also finished tied for second in the floor (14.850), third in the vault (15.350), third in the parallel bars (13.700), tied for third in the pommel horse (13.350), and tied for fifth in the rings (13.050).
Fox finished in the top three in four events. That included a first in the rings (13.450), a second in the high bars (14.100), a tie for second in the floor (14.850), and a tie for third in the pommel horse (13.350).
Others who did well for SC included senior co-captains Kyle Bartgis with a first in the parallel bars (14.400) and Matt Tocchio with a second in the pommel horse (13.900). In addition, Mike Licari placed in a tie for second in the still rings (13.250).
Next Sunday (Mar. 14), Springfield will conclude its home season with a tri-meet versus Air Force and William & Mary in Blake Arena at 1 pm.

|Walker calls special session on state health care options
Gov. Scott Walker recently issued Executive Order No. 123, calling a special session of the Legislature to address the implications of the federal launch of the Affordable Care Act. The special session will begin Dec. 2.
"The federal government failed to get its website fully operational, and it's irresponsible to force some Wisconsinites to pay the price for the federal government's failure," said Walker.
"I'm calling a special session of the Legislature to approve our plan extending the deadline for individuals moving to the federal exchange," he said. "We need to give people more time."Last week, Walker laid out and announced a plan for a three-month delay in the implementation of people moving into health care plans in the federal exchange.

What it is: The Center for American Progress, a liberal public policy think-tank, this week released a report titled "The State of Teacher Evaluation Reform," which looks at new teacher-evaluation systems in New Jersey and five other states as they continue to evolve under new state and national mandates.
Who wrote it: The report's author is New Jersey's own Patrick McGuinn, an associate professor of political science and education at Drew University. McGuinn, who chairs Drew's political science department, specializes in federal education policy.
What it says: The report focuses on states' capacity to implement new teacher-evaluation systems mandated through the federal No Child Left Behind Act and the Race to the Top competition, which provided funding to states to develop such systems with strict conditions for what would be permitted. Overall, McGuinn wrote, there are a number of tall challenges facing each state, starting with tight timelines and limited resources.
Communication is key: "The learning curve for local education agencies, state education agencies, and the U.S. Department of Education during the implementation of new teacher-evaluation systems will be steep and mistakes will inevitably be made, but it is crucial that the work be transparent and that information about effective methods be shared up and down the education delivery chain."
What it says about New Jersey: New Jersey fares pretty well in McGuinn's study, which finds it is taking a deliberative approach to instituting a new teacher- evaluation system through a pilot program that so far encompasses 30 districts. The fact that it was agreed to through a new tenure-reform law with bipartisan support only helps, the study says.
Yes, but … : New Jersey still faces a host of challenges as it seeks to have a statewide program in place by 2013-14, McGuinn says, ranging from whether the state Department of Education has enough staff to oversee such a plan to the difficulty of insuring quality programs in more than 550 districts.
Quote: "New Jersey is a strong local-control state, and that is clearly a challenge," McGuinn said in an interview. "Gov. Christie and Chris Cerf (the education commissioner) want to put in place a top-down mandate, and we have almost 600 districts inclined to go their own way."
Other states: Also studied in the report are Colorado, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Tennessee. They were chosen with New Jersey as states that are closed to adopting statewide models.
Who's best? McGuinn, in a separate interview, said all of the states have faced one struggle or another in trying to put statewide systems in place. But he said Delaware and Tennessee have been at it longest and have seen the most progress, if not outright success.

Moa Imperial Stout (Aged In Pinot Noir Barrels) - Moa Brewing Company

Reviews by ZoomanCru:
2.96/5 rDev -18.5%
MOA – Barrel Aged Stout (10.2%) - Moa Brewing Company (New Zealand)
App: Black pour with a serious three finger head that is way off for the style. Bottle seemed a little over carbed when opened. Allowed to settle and warm for nearly 20 minutes. Head is thick and creamy and very dark, with a sort of tawny brown color. Head retains like crazy, wish it would settle so I could drink the damned thing. Lacing is high and sticky with individual bubbles visible.
Smell: Smell is very strong on the barrel, with a significant woodiness and a twinge of acetic. Some dark roasted malt aromas come through, but are nearly hidden under the barrel aromas. Some very basic hints of dried fruit. As head settles, alcohol volatility becomes apparent.
Taste: Whoa. This beer is just absolutely overflowing with complexity. Fore taste is very sweet, and allowed to sit on the palate opens up into an impressive milk chocolate and plum-skin tartness that is very pleasant. Continues to its third act with a touch of roasty dryness that fights hard agains the sweetness and the alcohol. Dryness looses out, and alcohol is very apparent. Frankly a little hot, more akin to wine (which I don't usually expect in a 10pt stout). My hypothesis is that this bottle had a little extra sugar and was shipped/stored warm, increasing the ABV to around 11.5 (an estimate). Some really nice dark notes on the aftertaste.
Mouth: Totally overcarbed, a little too lingering in its sweetness, and the presence of the alcohol is drying my mouth out. All totally against style and very detrimental to overall impression.
Home tasting, 12.7oz bottle (Half Pour) into Snifter.

Young pour as this is a new batch, yet I believe this beer is nice with the red fruit pinot and grape leaf bitterness on the tounge and nose. Strong alcohol presence.This is very dry, chocolate malts here with raisin, plum, and cherry on the nose; interesting blend of dark fruit flavours and vibrant berry like flavor. The barrel is carrying this beer through for me. Resiny dark chocolate and earthy front; boozey, fruity, pinot is a nice touch. A bit boozey and stringent bite upfront, hardly a complaint on the finish..Mouthfeel is medium to moderate heavy, carbonation is Medium. drinks a lot like a quad to me..Suprisingly not too sweet, since the wine balances the heavy booze with nice red fruit sour note.Toungue is coated now with pinot and woodsy oak. A good 3-5 hrs sitting on this one should increase the qualities of this beer.. I would appreciate this with black truffles, meats with horesradish and lemon(parsy/dill/fresh herbs), sweet-breads.

Terrible, agreed with others, tastes and smells like band aids. No coffee roast like one would expect in a RIS and while the pinot is apparent, it lacks the fruit character. It must be infected I can't imagine this being intended to taste like this. Like the rating suggests, the appearance is the best attribute and not that great as the head retention is next to none (somewhat expected with barrel-aging). Back to the drawing board on this one.

Somewhere between dark brown and black, sits this beer. Massive carbonation, head initially, leading into a deep recission and a drinker wondering "dude, where's my foam head?" Solid amount of roast, white wine barrel and smoke in the aroma.
Taste, interesting, made me think of Mikkeller's White Wine Barrel Black Hole at first, and while many think that beer (and this one apparently) are abominations, I kind of dig the juxtaposition of a white wine barrel and a 10% imperial stout. The excessive carbonation only furthers the influence of white grapes/white wine, the wood barrel is very rich in this one too. Because of the white wine and carbonation, I thought this one really hid the alcohol well and stayed light on its feet throughout. If you loathe white wine/pinot, you're going to loathe this beer I suspect. Its really prominent. The beer tastes anything but what it looks like. There even seems to be a little white pepper aspect to it as well.
$6 at Total Wine. I dunno if its worth it or not as a repeat purchase, but I think its good and different enough that everyone should try it at least once.

(Served in a tulip glass)
A- This beer pours a dark dense black body with a deep tan cream and a carbonation of tiny bubbles that glide up the surface of the glass. The head last for a good bit before fading to a thin ring
S- The mellow soft red wine aroma blends with some dark roasted chocolate malt notes and a brewer's licorice note in the finish.
T- The inky black roasted malt has a tar note to it with some deep chocolate malt flavors with some nice red wine tannin flavors underneath. There is a gentle bitterness in the slightly dry finish. There are some interesting cigar tobacco notes and green wood notes that come thru with the dark roasted malt flavors as the beer opens up.
M- The medium-full mouthfeel has a thick texture that coats the mouth after each sip and some gentle alcohol heat that comes through on the exhale.
O- This is a nice smooth Imp. Stout that has some good notes of Pinot Noir supporting it. They are not really strong and the rest of the flavors blend together making a nice bit of complexity although subtle. Even though the red wine tannins are soft it still gives me that classic red wine heart burn.

Reviewed for what it is, obviously deviates from style somewhat.
Jet black with khaki mocha froth head, thin layer maintains. Good lacing, no sediment.
Nose is complex; bright tannic dark fruits, blackcurrant, coffee roast, oak, leather, tobacco. Really nice bouquet of an aroma.
Palate starts dark juicy fruit, bakers chocolate, bright acidity, mild oak and lengthens to dark chocolates, touch of vanilla, and sharp roast. Really complex and digging what some wine barrels can do to an imperial stout.
Full body, finishes slightly dry and pulling on the palate. Carbonation is right on target moving the beer along well.
For what they were trying to achieve with the aging in Pinot Noir barrels, I think they nailed it! Brings really complex oak, vinous tannic fruits to the style and it works.

Crazy, death-level carbonation. Strange smell. Chocolate, sour grapes and cherries, coffee and some strange funk. taste is sharp and acidic. Grapes, dark roasted coffee, slight chocolate, and sour cherries. The mouthfeel is very light and bubbly for a stout. The pinot noir notes may be a bit too strong for the base beer. Not bad but not something I'd buy again. The $5.99 price tag just made it too tempting to pass up.
So insanely carbonated that as soon as I removed the cage the cork exploded across the room. Murderous.

If you like variety, the story of personal computer operating systems is probably not a place to look for thrills. There was diversity in the early years, when every system basically had its own OS, but in those days, only the computer scientists even knew what an operating system was. You know the rest of the story: Unix gained a footing in the corporate, big-iron space, with Apple and Microsoft nailing down the end-user desktop, and Linux slipping indefatigably into the mix despite the best efforts of the competition.

FORT WORTH -- Six people, including five children, were taken to local hospitals for minor injuries after a Fort Worth ISD bus on the way to a field trip collided with a car Tuesday morning.
There were 35 nine- and ten-year-old children from Bill J. Elliott Elementary, two adults, and a driver on board the bus, which hit a car on Interstate-30 westbound just east of Interstate-35W.
Five children were transported by MedStar to Cook Children's Medical Center as a precaution and one adult was taken to Harris Methodist Hospital. One other student was taken by a private vehicle to a personal doctor.
The other students were placed on another bus and taken back to school, according to Fort Worth ISD spokesman Clint Bond.
It is unclear at this time where the field trip was headed.

Educators are firing back at Governor Tom Corbett's 2013 budget plan.Pennsylvania State Education Association president Mike Crossey told abc27 his organization was expecting Corbett to restore a decent portion of the $1-billion in public education cuts made over his last two budgets, but he only funded an additional $90-million."I think these cuts have been very cruel, and I think you can tell because student test scores have started to drop," Crossey said.Crossey says with class sizes at all-time highs, massive teacher layoffs, program cuts and districts forced to foot the bill by hiking property taxes, selling the state's liquor stores for $1-billion as a "quick fix" is not the answer."You've got an asset that brings in, at the current time, $500-million every single year," he said. "The governor's thinking about selling that off for a one-time, quick hit and dirty profit. Why?"He also said Corbett's plan to increase teacher pension contributions is already in place."Over the last ten years as an employee, we've paid in double to what the employer has paid in ten years," Crossey said. "So it's very different than the normal conversation out there in that our pension system works."Crossey said PSEA will now work with the state legislature to try and secure additional funding before the final budget vote in June.

It's an old saying that lightning strikes twice but for one family it not only struck twice but nearly struck a 3rd time. Tonight Derek Hackett introduces us to a family that's had more than just their share of the experience with sports injuries but continue to bounce back.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear.
It's perhaps the four scariest words you can utter to an athlete.
Taking 6 to 9 months to recover..It ends your season
Now imagine hearing those 4 words twice in about a year.
McKale Duttenhefer/ Junior Guard "I was doing a pivot move and then my knee stayed and popped. I was pretty scared, I just came back and I thought "how can this happen again, are you serious?"
Derek Hackett "McKale is a junior Guard for the Minot High Majettes. 13 months ago she had ACL reconstruction surgery. Reinjuring a surgically repaired ACL isn't common, at least according to Trinity Sports Medicine's Robin Gust.
Robin Gust/ Trinity Sports Medicine "I have not seen reinjuries of ACLs very often. To me, in my personal opinion, it's probably more to do with her body build than possibly any other factor."
That theory seems to hold true, McKale has a twin sister, Sierra, and she dealt with this same issue, on the same knee, a year before.
Sierra Duttenhefer/ Junior Guard "I did my ACL first, back 2 years ago in July. We were always like, "Well, now people can tell us apart with our leg brace then that first game of the season McKale tore hers. So we basically have everything the same."
All is well for the twins. Sierra's knee seems strong and McKale is sidelined for no more than 2 weeks after tweaking it on the tenth of January.
Soon the twins will get back to sharing the court.
Sierra "Just having McKale on the court with me is a big change for me. Just because I know where she's going to be. We have that twin telepathy thing and we've been playing together for so long."
To avoid those four words--you'll need to remember just one. Therapy.
"McKale: "The reason I have to go to the therapist is so he can evaluate how I make sharp turns and how I plant. All to see if I can prevent it by thinking about it. Other than that I can't really prevent it.
It will be a group effort but these sisters hope to never hear those four words ever again.
In Minot Derek Hackett, KX Sports.
McKale and Sierra have helped bring the Majettes to a 5 and 3 record on the season and are the Majettes are currently receiving votes in the state polls.
They host Century tomorrow night at the MSU Dome.
Minot Police say Zofia Kristal Pepple of New Town was struck by a pickup and killed about 6:25pm Sunday
A two-year-old child was killed by a hit-and-run driver in Minot Sunday evening.
They ask if you have any information about the incident that you contact them at 852-0111.
In addition, both had recently been released from state prison.

A growing number of parents are turning their bedrooms into delivery rooms.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, home births have increased by nearly 30 percent over the past few years. Moms, midwives and doctors predict the popularity of home births will continue to increase.
America Now was in Ali Corral's bedroom when she delivered her 8-pound, 10-ounce daughter with the only equipment she deemed essential -- her body, husband and two midwives, as well as a few basic medical tools and her own sheer will.
Denver Corral's arrival added yet another birth to the growing trend in home births across the country, a trend that is hardly surprising to hospitals.
"I think its probably risen more," says Dr. Frank Harrison, who is with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
One reason for the popularity of home births is because giving birth to a child in a hospital setting is expensive.
For their first daughter, the Corrals didn't have maternity insurance with their private health plan.
Out-of-pocket, a hospital birth without any complications or a Caesarean section (C-section) will likely cost at least $10,000 compared to $1,000 to $4,000 for a home birth or a delivery at a birthing center.
Besides the cost, the Corrals say they would still choose the midwife model of care because it offers a personal relationship with a midwife who encourages the use of minimal medical and technological intervention like an epidural or Caesarean section.
"She believes and we believe as a family that it was for the good of her and for the good of our baby to do it completely naturally, and we have three completely healthy kids," husband Mark Corral says.
Based on an analysis of several studies, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has acknowledged that while planned home births were associated with fewer medical interventions, lacerations and infections, evidence suggests the risk of neonatal death increases two-fold in planned home births as compared to planned hospital births.
Wary of complications that might arise during labor, obstetricians stand by the safety net provided by a hospital delivery.
"If you ignore the technology, you're going to lose some babies," Dr. Harrison warns.
However, many moms choose a home birth to avoid that technology, specifically, Caesarean sections which now account for more than 32 percent of births according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Unfortunately, in this country, the safest route equals C-section," Ali Corral says.
She wanted her birth to be a family event and not a medical one. To ensure a safe home birth, she did her homework before choosing a midwife.
She interviewed several about their training, experience, references, health insurance policy, emergency back-up plan and hospital transfer rate.
Lisa Johnson is a licensed midwife at Carolinas Community Maternity Center.
"I know when to evaluate when something is beyond my scope of care," Johnson says. "When something is beyond what I'm able to handle, I'm able to assess and make that decision that it's time to go to the hospital."
She was licensed in South Carolina after achieving a level of midwifery schooling and apprenticeship.
Parents need to know the laws in their state, because some home births are prohibited unless attended by a certified nurse midwife who is licensed in both nursing and midwifery.
If you decide there's no place like home, carefully consider the risks along with the personal rewards for you and your baby.
After all, this is the most important birthday you will plan for them.
If you decide on a hospital delivery, don't be afraid to check out your doctor, too. Ask about their C-section rate and experience if you're concerned.
Whether it's an obstetrician or a midwife, inquire about their medical malpractice insurance. Rising rates are pushing many obstetricians out of business, and not all midwives carry it.
Additional Information:
- The following information is from Dr. Frank Harrison, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC. His personal suggestion for moms looking for an alternative is working with a Certified nurse midwife in a hospital or affiliated birth center. Certified nurse midwifes have the back-up of a physician. He says an acceptable transfer rate for a midwife is between 8 and 10 percent.
- The following information is from Mark and Ali Corral. Their oldest daughter, Bella, was born in a birth center. Their second daughter, Joanna, was born at home. Ali preferred the personal relationship she had with her midwife, including the ability to call and email her, etc. Mark says the midwives are more like coaches for both mom and dad throughout the entire duration of the pregnancy.
- The following information is from Lisa Johnson, a licensed midwife at Carolinas Community Maternity Center. Her concern is with the continuity of care in a hospital setting. Parents may see multiple OB's and nurses throughout the pregnancy which defeats an individualized care plan. The Carolina Community Maternity Center was established after strong community demand. The facility is able to monitor the baby's heart rate during delivery, the mother's vial signs, administer oxygen and anti-hemorrhage medication and they are trained in neonatal resuscitation. The facility will transfer a mother into doctor care if during neonatal they develop health issues. They will not perform breach births or multiple gestations (twins). Their midwives are registered with the State Board of Health.
- This chart shows a cost comparison, hospital vs home: http://transform.childbirthconnection.org/resources/datacenter/chargeschart/
- The following definitions are from www.mana.org
1. Certified midwives (C.M.) meet American College of Nurse-Midwives (midwife.org) requirements, but they do not need to be nurses.
2. Certified nurse-midwives (C.N.M.) are nurse- practitioners who are certified by the American College of Nurse-Midwives.
3. Certified professional midwives (C.P.M.) meet North American Registry of Midwives (narm.org) certification standards.
4. Direct entry midwives (D.E.M.) are educated through self-study, apprenticeship, midwifery school or college- or university-based programs that don't include nursing. They include certified midwives and certified professional midwives.
5. Lay midwives are sometimes called traditional, unlicensed or "granny" midwives. These women are educated through self-study and apprenticeships, and while they may be highly experienced and skilled, they aren't certified or licensed.
6. Licensed midwives (L.M.) can practice in a particular jurisdiction, usually a state or province.
- The following statistics are from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Click here for more details.) Births taking place at home rose nearly 30% between 2004 and 2009, and an estimated 90% of these are planned. A breakdown of who helps women give birth at home: 42.9% (Certified professional, direct-entry or other midwives), 32.9% (Relatives, emergency medical technicians, other), 19.5% (Certified nurse midwives), and 4.8% (Physicians).
- After declining from 1990 to 2004, the percentage of U.S. births that occurred at home jumped 29 percent from 2004 to 2009, when it hit the highest level since researchers began collecting data 20 years earlier. (http://vitals.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/26/10242611-home-births-rise-nearly-30-percent)
- Non-Hispanic white women were most likely to give birth at home in 2009, with one in every 90 births, or about 1.1 percent, in that group taking place at home. That represents an increase of 36 percent over 2004.
- Home births more common among women 35 and older and among women with several previous children. (Source: CDC)
- According to the ACOG, although the absolute risk may be low, planned home birth is associated with a twofold to threefold increased risk of neonatal death when compared with planned hospital birth. When infants with congenital defects were excluded, the risk of neonatal mortality tripled. (Source: CDC)
- ACOG Committee Opinion: Believes that hospitals and birthing centers are the safest setting for birth, but respects the right of a woman to make a medically informed decision about delivery. Although the absolute risk may be low, planned home birth is associated with a twofold to threefold increased risk of neonatal death when compared with planned hospital birth. The appropriate selection of candidates for home birth; the availability of a certified nurse–midwife, certified midwife, or physician practicing within an integrated and regulated health system; ready access to consultation; and assurance of safe and timely transport to nearby hospitals are critical to reducing perinatal mortality rates and achieving favorable home birth outcomes. In the United States, approximately 25,000 births (0.6%) per year occur in the home. Approximately one fourth of these births are unplanned or unattended and without provisions for professional care during childbirth, are subsequently associated with high rates of perinatal and neonatal mortality. To date there have been no adequate randomized clinical trials of planned home birth. Click here to read more about the ACOG Committee Opinion.
- Pregnant women have been reluctant to participate in clinical trials involving randomization to home or hospital birth (i.e. being "instructed" where to deliver for the purpose of a study).
- Consequently, most information on planned home births comes from observational studies and are limited by small sample sizes, lack of control group, reliance on birth certificate data, voluntary submission and self-reporting, variation in skill and training of the birth attendant, among other factors.
- Based on a meta-analysis (results of several studies) of observational studies, although perinatal (before birth) mortality rates were similar among planned home births and planned hospital births, planned home births were associated with a twofold-increased risk of neonatal death (after birth).
- When limited to only nonanomalous newborns, the increased risk of neonatal death was even higher, almost threefold higher in planned home births.
- No maternal deaths were reported among 10,977 planned home births.
- When compared with planned hospital births, planned home births are associated with fewer maternal interventions (epidural, electronic fetal heart rate monitoring, episiotomy (cutting the skin between the vagina and anus), operative vaginal delivery (forceps or vacuum), and Caesarean delivery.
- Planned home births are associated with fewer third-degree lacerations or fourth-degree lacerations, less maternal infection and similar rates of postpartum hemorrhage, perineal laceration, vaginal laceration, and umbilical cord prolapse.
- Rates of pre-term birth before 37 weeks of gestation and low birth weight were lower for planned home birth, likely because of selection bias.
- The reported risk of needing an intrapartum transport to a hospital is 25–37% for 1st-time mothers and 4–9% for women who had already given birth before, due to lack of progress, fetal status, pain relief, hypertension, bleeding and fetal position.
- Planned home births can be safe only when involving healthy pregnant women (no preexisting maternal disease, no significant disease arising during the pregnancy, a singleton fetus, gestational age greater than 36 weeks and less than 41 completed weeks of pregnancy).
- American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that labor after cesarean delivery be undertaken in facilities with staff immediately available to provide emergency care (27). The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Committee on Obstetric Practice considers a prior cesarean delivery to be an absolute contraindication to planned home birth.

text:
The purpose of this article is to put forward a thesis about a general tendency of what is coming worldwide in the near future in political terms, how it is going to come about, and what revolutionaries should do to promote the changes and to shed light about the best way to proceed. We foresee the generalization of political turmoil, and actual revolutions of various sorts, all over the world, specially in places where people have access to the Internet and to alternative communication media, specially in the so called developing countries with those conditions. In rich countries we also see political revolutions, characterized by the questioning of traditional parties, the upsurge of new political organizations, connected with plain people and popular movements like women, ecological, immigrant, worker, human rights, antiwar, workers, new religions and others. The loud complaints about the status quo are going to increase everywhere, but a defining characteristic of what will happen is that new, popular movements will actually take power, significantly all over the world, some in whole countries, others, and notably, in localities, with a stronghold looking for new political and economic models characterized by participation of the people. The political upheaval of people will create demand for participative democracy and participative economics (at least at the interior of the firms, with cooperatives being the benchmark). Lastly, there will be a strong growth of networks of popular movements and political and economic new institutions led by the people across nations and the world, sometimes well beyond the figure of the nation state.
In the next sections we argue why we see such tendencies, and motivate the main reason, which serves as title to the article: information sharing as a sparkling light. In the last section we briefly propose an agenda of action for the revolutionaries, and conclude.
Injustice, inequality and revolution
It is well known that inequality, properly rationalized by the low income people, produces revolutions. There are famous modern formal theories that predict such a thing, confirming the dialectical theories of history beginning with Karl Marx, like the median voter theorem, or, notably, John Roemer's theory (1983) that shows that when income distribution is more unequal, revolutions are more likely.
A false revolutionary ideology ascribes the causes of revolutions to envy of the rich by the poor. And a rightist ideology that has made some road into some self-denominated left activists holds that poor are so because they are responsible for their choices in the past, or because of their laziness and corrupt character in general. It turns out that even thinkers like Robert Lucas, a well known Chicago Nobel laureate who can not be suspicious of being leftist or attacking neoliberalism, has shown, in a famous paper coauthored with Andrew Atkenson (1992), that, even a small inequality of information at the beginning of an economy populated by people with the same tastes for leisure and the same abilities, produces very unequal outcomes as time goes on. So, it is not that poor people have chosen more leisure over hard work in the past, compared to rich people. A small exogenous circumstance, attributed to bad luck for having less key information of opportunities can make a huge difference. And this is completely unfair, from the ethical stand point, and from the political stand point. But asymmetry of information is only one of many so called market failures that produce inefficiencies and unfair treatment of otherwise likewise people. We have also externalities (like pollution, environment degradation), credit constraints (like the ones imposed on the poor), public goods (like information, knowledge, technology), market power, poorly defined property rights, and so on as such causes of unfair social outcomes. The distributive justice literature has given enough arguments about the justification of income redistribution on grounds of fairness, taking into account all sorts of circumstances, and also individual responsibility (Roemer, 1996, 1998).
Even according to liberal thinkers like John Rawls, inequality is not only unfair, both ex-post, such as the cases occurring in a dynamic economy with unequal circumstances, and ex-ante, such as the case of personal handicaps that can be attributed to bad luck before being born, which must be insured against by ex-post transfers. Inequality is also inconvenient for economic growth. There is increasing evidence that inequality also produces economic stagnation, besides political turmoil. It has been shown by Robert Barro and other authors, for example, that among other factors, equality in income distribution is a factor that explains economic growth (Barro, 1981, 1998).
Even further, it is nowadays undisputed that participation of workers in the firm, and people in political matters, in particular poor workers and poor people, greatly improves firm performance, and administrative performance of the public sector. The false ideology that says that workers are less able intellectually has given way to the documented facts that they generally know more about the production processes in which they are involved than their bosses. And likewise, the false ideology that common people are less able to deal with public administrative affairs than university specialist has given way to the documented facts that peoples' participation in government greatly improves public administration performance. By what we are saying, the traditional rightist tradeoff between economic efficiency and equity is being broken.
To give just one example of effectiveness of public sector activities where people participate directly, in a study of 121 projects of rural clean water in 49 countries, Isham, Narayan and Pritchett (1994) found that 7 of every 10 projects was successful when the communities involved participated in their design and implementation. Only one of each 10 of them was successful when there was no participation. The explanation is found in the fact that the human mind has limitations, and people who deal directly with matters of their interest or involvement, has more knowledge than others that are not so close to the mater. In the case of people and government, they know more about what they really want, and what they have, than a central planner, even a benevolent one. Also, poor people have usually made hard choices regarding administration of scarce resources, and, as a consequence, are good administrators. In addition, they are aware of how public projects are done, since many of them are able to supervise at the site more than well studied central administrators and supervisors.
So, inequality, and exclusion, are unfair and inconvenient for society, not only for the poor and excluded. If poor people are given the chance and the resources to participate, not only they, but the whole organization in question, including society as a whole, benefits. It is true that in most circumstances a small group of people who benefit from the unfair exploitation of the excluded will object if the exploited are given a chance to participate and be subjects of their own development as human beings in society. Especially if the participating people are given political power to make decisions. But people generally find the elevation of those narrow interests over the interest of the majority to be unfair, and the consciousness of these facts produces political revolutions consisting in two things: not only redistribution of income and resources, and equalization of circumstances, but also economic and political participation of the poor, exploited and excluded.
It is indisputable that inequality produces revolutions, then. But a key ingredient for revolutions to happen is the raised consciousness of the poor, the agents of change, of the facts, and of the theories: the theories of fairness, the facts of inconvenience of inequality (and the dangers for humanity of neoliberal results regarding environment!). These facts can be, and have been, hidden by the mass media controlled

Winter + Spring Clinics
Love them or hate them moguls are a constant challenge no matter what your level of skiing. If you've been avoiding them, longing to conquer them or simply just frustrated by them, Momentum Winter + Spring Mogul Sessions will unlock the simple mystery of skiing bumps and help you become an all round more versatile skier.
Owned and directed by John Smart, two time Olympian, 13 time World Cup medalist and Canadian Hall of Fame member, the program is geared to all levels, from the intermediate adult who just wants to be able to get down a mogul field, to advanced skiers looking for a new challenge. Using current and ex-World Cup mogul skiers as coaches, along with CFSA qualified Freestyle coaches, these clinics will take you through the basics of mogul skiing using techniques which have been developed directly from the world's top mogul skiers and coaches on the World Cup circuit.
The winter and spring clinics are 'coaching-only' day programs set up in three or four day cycles. We meet at 8:30am and ski until the lifts close. Depending on your schedule, you can drop in on a daily basis or do back-to-back sessions till you drop out! Skiers will be divided into groups based on their skiing ability so they learn at a comfortable pace.
The maximum ratio of skiers per coach is limited to 6. Lift line priority will ensure good mileage and is an added bonus on busy weekends or holidays. The clinic also includes daily video review with a one-on-one analysis after skiing at Milestones.

Teaneck assesses response to storm
In the days following superstorm Sandy, after the fallen branches had been cleared from streets and power restored to most homes and businesses, township officials and emergency services began assessing their response to the massive storm and tallying its cost.
Mayor Mohammed Hameeduddin said that one of the most challenging aspects of dealing with a storm like Sandy is getting information out to residents, particularly when much of the town is without power.
The township used several means of communication during the storm, including posting information on the municipality's website, sending emails to residents and updating its Facebook page.
But for those without power or internet, the messages were not always received. Hameeduddin said that while he understands some residents' frustration with the amount of information available during the storm, conveying messages was difficult at a time when many of the usual tools of communication were no longer functioning.
"The council did as much as we could. We used the channels that we had available to us," said Hameeduddin.
"Many people didn't have internet, and if you didn't have power you couldn't charge your cell phone," he explained. "Robocalls won't work because when there is no power, many people are without phones. It is very hard to communicate in that situation."
Hameeduddin said he hopes the storm will spur more residents to sign up for official alerts on the township's website. In the past six weeks, the number of residents receiving alerts has jumped from 70 to 500, he said.
Hameeduddin said he is hopeful that a generator will soon be installed at the municipal building and Rodda Center, allowing the township to continue to function well during emergencies.
With an emergency generator, the Rodda Center could be used as a shelter and warming center for those without heat or power.
To help residents clean up the many branches and leaves downed by the storm's strong winds, the department of public works opened its depot for extended hours last week.
In addition, the building department recently opened for extended hours to expedite restoration and assist residents and businesses that suffered damage as a result of the storm.
The township has waved permit fees associated with repairs directly related to the storm and its aftermath.
Teaneck emergency services members had their hands full responding to increased calls during the worst of the storm, but no residents suffered major injuries, according to Larry Robertson of the Teaneck Volunteer Ambulance Corps (TVAC).
To prepare, TVAC quadrupled its normal number of members on duty, from two or three on a shift to about a dozen.
The ambulance corps also takes more of an active role in its own dispatching during emergencies, to take some of the burden off of the police department, Robertson said.
During the eight-day period during and immediately following the storm, the ambulance corps received about 40 percent more calls than average.
Among the calls was a mutual aid response to Ridgefield Park where carbon monoxide had filled an apartment building, and assisting at an emergency shelter in Teterboro where residents of Little Ferry and Moonachie, many with medical needs, had been evacuated.
Many other calls were from residents without electricity who needed a place to plug in necessary medical equipment.
Robertson said he hopes the Rodda Center will serve as a shelter during future emergencies and provide those residents with health needs with a place to go instead of the emergency room.
In all, 87 corps members worked throughout the storm, some on duty for more than 90 hours at a time.
"We made sure we were prepared," said Robertson. "All of our trucks had been topped off with fuel, and everything was stocked to max capacity. We believe we were successful in what was a very difficult situation."

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. will square off with Miguel Cotto tomorrow night on HBO PPV. Mayweather is understandably the favorite, bringing a 42-0 record to the ring with him while Cotto is a bit faded from his absolute peak. But the odds are still reasonable for some of the fights we've seen lately. Boxing odds tend to slant heavily in bouts like this just because a better boxer is a better boxer, unlike in MMA where a better striker can get taken down and submitted or a wrestler forced to stand up and trade strikes.
Currently, Mayweather is hanging around a -700 favorite, but is as high as -800 on some gambling websites. Cotto will come in as an underdog listed as anywhere between +450 and +550. There are also lines on things like how long the fight goes, with over 9.5 rounds listed at -250 and under 9.5 rounds at +170.
The favored method of victory for the event is Floyd Mayweather by decision (-150) followed by Mayweather by stoppage (+190), Cotto by stoppage (+800), Cotto by decision (+1400) and a draw (+4000).
In the evening's other featured bout, Saul "Canelo" Alvarez is listed at a -900 favorite against Shane Mosley who is an underdog of upwards of +600.
Jessie Vargas is a huge favorite at -3500 against Steve Forbes (+1750) and Deandre Latimore (-145) is a slight favorite against Carlos Quintana (+125).
The best value in all these lines would be on Quintana at +125 as I like his better experience to topple the sometimes lazy Latimore and Mayweather by decision at -150 since Cotto is difficult to stop, unlikely to stop Mayweather and Floyd doesn't carry huge power, making a decision likely.

New Diaspora: the first buzz
We need to raise $63.5K until May 4th, in order to keep the New Diaspora project going. Please share and contribute to our crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.
The odds are against us, but we have a growing team of experts and volunteers working around the clock, and our community is booming. Will we make it?
New Diaspora
And so it begins…
New Diaspora – the trailer from New Diaspora on Vimeo.
Please share our crowdfunding campaign and join us.
New Diaspora is an independent web documentary movement, focusing on the new generation of Greeks living abroad during the crisis in their homeland.
This is an expanding and ongoing project, aiming to build an online community where Greeks all over the world can share their own creative content and opinions. Documenting themselves on video, sending pictures, writing posts and proposing ideas that are relevant to the subject of our platform.
The main narrative drive is a documentary series directed by Nicolas Stamboulopoulos, who lives and works in Amsterdam since October 2009.
An open letter from the ones who left
For almost two years, I've been working on a personal project that will soon launch its crowdfunding campaign. It's a crossmedia documentary platform called New Diaspora, and it concerns the stories of Greeks who have moved abroad recently. Who are we, what are we doing here, why did we leave, what's our point of view on the current situation in Greece, how much have we adapted to our new lives. It's an open letter with multiple senders and even more recipients.
The main narrative drive is a web documentary series directed by Nicolas Stamboulopoulos, who lives and works in Amsterdam since October 2009. The documentaries explore different aspects of the neo-migrational phenomenon, focusing on the personal stories of the ones who left.
At the same time, New Diaspora is an open community, where expatriate Greeks can share their own creative content and opinions, from wherever they are. Documenting themselves on video, sending photos, writing posts and proposing ideas that are relevant to the platform's subject.
Beginning our journey from what unites us instead of what divides us, our aim is to intervene jointly and dynamically on the public debate concerning what's happening in our homeland. Also, to redefine our collective identity and to offer an alternative perspective on the international image of Greeks.

Occupy Amsterdam
OCCUPY AMSTERDAM: Dimitris Pavlopoulos from New Diaspora on Vimeo.
Only a few hours left till the New Diaspora crowdfunding campaign expires! Please share and contribute in order to support our independence, and help us tell the story of an entire migration wave as it happens.
I originally intended to post this video back in October of 2011, as a report of the Occupy movement's impact on Dutch society. For a number of reasons I decided to wait until the moment would be ripe, and now I'm posting it as a historical record of what was the political climate back then.
This is not a complete documentary, since it lacks a proper storyline, interviews with the protagonists and counter arguments from the economists who advocate the austerity measures. However, it shows the hopefulness for the change that never came. Ironically enough, the economic recession in Greece has evolved into a full scale bankruptcy. Some of the figures mentioned in Dimitris' speech sound almost harmless in comparison to what's happening today.
Dimitris Pavlopoulos is an economist, working as an Assistant Professor in the sociology department of VU University Amsterdam (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam).

MATCHDAY LIVE: Wanderers 2 Burnley 1
Updated 4:56pm Saturday 9th February 2013 in Sport By Marc Iles
Enable automatic updates every 30 seconds? YES NO
- Three changes for Wanderers - in come De Ridder, Mears and Dawson
- Out go Ricketts, Vela and Ream
DP - Thanks for everyone's patience with all the IT gremlins today at the Reebok...at least the three points was secured
DP - That's it....Chris Foy puts his whistle to his mouth and the points are Wanderers'....could be a big three points that.
DP - Wanderers have the ball where they want it...in the corner and Burnley are pegged back
DP - four added minutes to endure for the Whites faithful
DP - A fright for home fans with 30 seconds of normal time left as Junior Stanislas curls a right-footer a few yards wide
DP - All hands to the pump now as Ngog gets back to get in a good diving header clearance
DP - just need to stay tight now. Have to say the response to going behind has been superb. Dougie Freedman's double substitution was met with boos on 58 minutes - well the pair turned the game on its head
Just before the goal, Alonso saw a thunderous free-kick from distance rattle the post
Yes they can!!! GOAL for Wanderers on 82 minutes as the other substitute David Ngog diverst Spearing's off-target drive into the box past a helpless Grant
DP - SKD on for the final 10 to give his namesake Craig some support up front...Can the Whites snatch a win here??
Kevin Davies coming on for Eagles. Substitution cheered.
DP- closing in on the last 10 minutes and Wanderersare increasing the pressure. Craig Davies is causing real concerns for the Clarets defence and they have just had to clear two efforts off the line
DP - have to say it was such a teasing cross from Chungy but still needed the fine finish from Craig Davies
MI - Think the first one was Chungy's.
MI - Two shots cleared off the line – second one was Alonso's effort.
MI - Subs combine again. Exchange between Ngog and Davies opens things up – and just as Davies thought he had beaten Grant with a little dinked shot, the keeper made a great stop.
MI - Great ball in from Chungy. Craig Davies threw himself at the ball and got the feintest touch with his head to send it past Grant. Great finish.
GOAL! Craig Davies

boltonnut says
MI or DP you did not show whos playing and who's on the bench I can't make it to the game today so I would like to know.thanx.
Wanderers (4-2-3-1): Bogdan; Mears, Knight, Dawson, Alonso; Spearing, Pratley; Eagles, Chung-Yong, De Ridder, Sordell.
Subs: Lonergan, Ricketts, Ream, Vela, K Davies, C Davies, Ngog.
Burnley (4-4-2): Grant; Trippier, Shackell, Edgar, Lafferty; Stanislas, McCann, Marney, Wallace; Austin, Ings.
Subs: Jensen, Long, Treacy, Stock,. Mills, Paterson, Vokes.
DP - Results elsewhere coupled with the Burnley goal here currently see the Whites fourth bottom and just 2 points off the drop zone
MI - Bogdan's kicking has been all over the place today.
De Ridder off, Craig Davies on.
Sordell off, Ngog on.
BOTH substitutions booed.
MI - The original corner should not have been given. The second one, from which Burnley scored, should have been better defended.
MI - Corner from Stanislas headed back by Marney to Edgar at the far post. Easy nod home for him, despite pressure from Spearing.
1-0 Burnley
MI - Almost ready for the off in the second half. Can Wanderers pick up the tempo again?
MI - Wanderers got better as the first half went on there. Few half chances and an encouraging start from Dawson, De Ridder and Pratley. No goals yet though, so it's all to play for.
MI - Sordell just burst into life and drilled a shot just wide from the edge of the box. Wanderers just waking up now.
DP - Dawson again meets a deep corner at the back post...surely one will go in for him soon if the Clarets dont track the runs
MI – Pratley skimming shot takes a deflection and out for a corner. Been a good half for the midfielder.
MI - Eagles gets past McCann and strikes a right footed shot into the side netting. Had Grant beaten.
MI - Five mins to go. One thing is for sure, the second half is going to be better...
DP - home fans frustrated with a casual and wayward flick from Eagles that set Burnley on the attack but fortunately their corner came to nothing
DP- Dawson looking a real threat from set-pieces with good movement at the back post
Knight booked. Foul on Ings.
MI - Dawson wins header from Spearing's corner again. Knight fresh airs it, then Eagles blasts one well over.
MI - Dawson header cleared by Grant's feet at his near post. Defender goes close again.
MI - decent bit of football from Wanderers on the right. De Ridder hits a shot on the turn, deflected wide.
MI - Not a classic. Pratley standing out so far for Wanderers. It's his type of game.
MI - Spearing corner, Dawson got a free header but didn't get it on target. Big miss.
MI - Brilliant defending from Pratley as Wallace and Marney combined on the left and delivered a really dangerous cross. Superb clearance from the midfielder.
DP - First corner of the day for Whites was low from Spearing and half-cleared but lovely floated ball back in by Darren Pratley needed some commanding goalkeeping from Lee Grant as he came out to punch well clear
MI - four touches later, Wanderers are defending a corner.
MI - First corner of the game for Wanderers
MI - Not much quality in the game until a good run from Ings. Got past Alonso rather too easily until Dawson steamed in. Corner cleared.
DP - Burnley looking composed on the ball as you would expect from a team in the play-off mix but Whites are digging in and Spearing is already buzzing around the midfield
MI - for those who were confused, this is me!
As both me and Dave Pye are doing this live commentary, we'll differentiate the comments. I'll be MI, Dave can be DP. Simples.
Great free-kick whipped in from the right edge of the box by Jay Spearing needed a good headed clearance and it got one just yards out.
Great free-kick whipped in from the right edge of the box by Jay Spearing needed a good headed clearance and it got one just yards out.
Few people were critical of Spearing's set pieces last week - just whizzed in a beauty there. Cleared by Edgar, I think.
Early attack for the visitors spurred on by a decent-sized following as a cross from the right is met by Charlie Austin and leaves Zat Knight down momentarily but he is soon up without treatment after a knock on the back of his head
Eagles playing centrally. De Ridder on right, Chungy on left from the start.
Ready for the off here.
Few would have expected Mears to be back in action today. Big day for him against his former club.
Marc Iles back again. Dave has gone for a sit down in a dark room because of the IT issues.
Dave Pye here at last..Sorry for the delay folks...as Marc Iles said there have been power problems at the Reebok today affecting internet as well as the pa system... hopefully we will be okay now ready for kick off in the big derby

@MarcIles Was worried you were at the Superbowl and not the Reebok. #3points— @BeejMcGillashaw 09 February 2013
@MarcIles you know of any reason why kamara isn't in the squad today?— @Derek_McA 09 February 2013
Think De Ridder did quite well when he came on at Watford last week. Will be interesting to see him get a bit more game time today.

Only kidding. To sustain a promotion challenge, what the team needs is backbone. Simon Charlton said as much on GMR the other week. The introduction of Medo and the return of Holden and Wheater should go some way towards providing this ingredient.

"Love the quality of the paper. For the square designs, the "Happy New Year" greeting font could be smaller so that it doesn't overwhelm the main photo."
"Great card. Since it was square and would have required extra postage I got the rectangular envelopes that square card fits in but no extra postage requird. They were very tight to get card in and only fit one way. Would not get these envelopes again!"
"This was my first time using Tiny Prints and I was thrilled with the result. The cards are colorful, happy, and convey my wishes! Another plus: I ordered them on a Wednesday and they arrived at my door on Saturday!"
"Was able to share pictures to review 2013 and perfect wording for how we plan to spend 2014! Exactly the greeting I wanted to send our loved ones!"
"My cards turned out great. The colors are fantastic. I thought the wording/title went nicely for my situation... a VERY late new year's card. I liked that it didn't say Happy New Year on it."

Every week, Packers radio play-by-play man Wayne Larrivee, who also co-hosts the "Pro Football Weekly" syndicated radio show with PFW editor-publisher Hub Arkush, answers three pertinent questions about the Packers.
PFW: Can you offer a quick assessment of Matt Flynn's effort in place of Aaron Rodgers last Sunday? I thought he was looking pretty good early in the second half until he unloaded that ugly interception in the endzone.
Larrivee: The game is not too big for Matt Flynn, and that is a good thing. Unfortunately he does not have a lot of game experience, and that, along with the lack of reps a backup QB gets in practice, were factors in an uneven performance in Detroit. The Packers believe he is a legitimate NFL QB, and they have spent three years developing him. I know people will underestimate him, but do that at your own peril. He led LSU to the national championship (not JaMarcus Russell — who was a top pick in the draft) and brings great intangibles to the position. Mike McCarthy believes he has all the physical tools, and it is the intangibles that make the difference at that position.
PFW: In the worst-case scenario, just how much confidence do you have in Flynn's ability to keep the Packers in contention if Rodgers is deemed unfit to play this Sunday and beyond?
Larrivee: Like I said above, it's not a worse case for the Packers. Is Matt Flynn Aaron Rodgers? No. But he can handle the stage, and after three years in the system, the Packers believe he will be ready to play if necessary.
PFW: McCarthy said early in the week that OLB Frank Zombo (knee) could be really challenged to play this Sunday. How big of a loss would that be, and how do you see the Packers compensating for his possible absence?
Larrivee: The Packers are now losing starters that began the season as backups, especially along the defensive front seven. That is why the run defense has struggled of late (see N.Y. Giants and Bears of last year — they had the same injury problem). The Packers like Erik Walden, who would probably start if Zombo can't, but he was on the street earlier this year.
