Miller & Martin PLLC is celebrating its 145th anniversary and Burkett Miller's philanthropic contributions to education.
Founded in 1867 by T. M. Burkett, Miller & Martin PLLC was an original tenant of the Volunteer Building on Georgia Avenue upon completion of its construction in 1917. Over the succeeding years, the firm has grown in order to serve many of Chattanooga's leading companies in the Coca-Cola bottling, insurance, banking, manufacturing and service industries and now represents clients regionally and nationally through its office in Chattanooga and offices in Atlanta and Nashville.
"It is with great pride and appreciation that our firm has been able to represent clients in Chattanooga and beyond for 145 years," said Jim Haley, chairman of Miller & Martin PLLC. "Miller & Martin has represented many clients from their beginnings or at critical junctures in their existence, and has hopefully played at least a small role in their success. We are honored to continue to be a leader in the region when it comes to legal services, and we look forward to continuing our practice for many years," he said.
In addition to celebrating the firm's long-standing history, the firm recognized Miller & Martin partner Burkett Miller's commitment to higher education and to the community. "Burkett Miller established a reputation not only as an outstanding attorney, but also as one of Chattanooga's earliest and most active entrepreneurs and philanthropists," Mr. Haley said.
On Sept. 27, the firm held a reception in Chattanooga at Miller Plaza, which was donated to the public by Burkett Miller, to recognize and present gifts to three educational programs founded by Burkett Miller and the Tonya Foundation which he established. The programs were the Miller Center for Public Affairs at the University of Virginia; The Tonya Public Affairs & Economics Internship Programs at The University of the South; and The Burkett Miller Distinguished Lecture Series at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Representatives from each institution benefitted by Burkett Miller were in Chattanooga on Sept. 27 for the reception, including Gerald L. Baliles, 65th governor of Virginia and current Director of the Miller Center in Charlottesville, Va.
"Burkett Miller's vision for a place where engaged citizens, scholars, business leaders, government officials, and media representatives could convene to talk in a nonpartisan setting about the complex challenges confronting the country is the basis on which the Miller Center rests," Governor Baliles said. "We are committed to carrying on that vision for years to come and are forever grateful for the example he set."
Mr. Haley added, "It is important for us to continue Mr. Miller's mission and passion for scholarly thinking and research by continuing our investments in the programs he supported."

Lebanese soldiers on armored personnel carrier patrol Bab al-Tabbaneh neighborhood in Tripoli, Friday, July 4, 2014. (The Daily Star/Fathi Masri)
BEIRUT: The Lebanese Army said in a statement Tuesday that troops have rounded up some 1100 suspects from different nationalities June, on a variety of charges ranging from terrorism to staying in Lebanon illegally.
The statement said that the arrests were carried out in all Lebanese regions as part of a security crackdown implemented by the Army to curb car-bomb attacks and suspected jihadist activities.
"As a result of the security measures implemented by the Army in the various Lebanese areas, some 1100 people from different nationalities were arrested last June on various charges including involvement in terrorism crimes, illegal possession and use of firearms, drug dealing and smuggling," the statement said.
The statement gave no specific information regarding the nationalities of the suspects, but said many were apprehended for staying in Lebanon illegally.
The Army also confiscated 172 cars and 129 motorcycles without legal papers, and seized quantities of arms, ammunitions and military equipment, the statement said, adding that all detainees were referred to the pertinent authorities.
The Army and the Internal Security Forces have enforced a security plan in Beirut and other regions following a spate of suicide bombings that targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut and security checkpoints. Bombers often used stolen cars or vehicles with forged papers in their attacks.

Mariano Rivera to start throwing next week, says knee is at about "95 percent"
Jan 5, 2013, 4:37 PM EST
Encouraging news to pass along regarding Mariano Rivera, who is currently working his way back from surgery to repair a torn ACL in his right knee.
According to Andrew Marchand of ESPN New York, Rivera said today that he plans to start his offseason throwing program next week. That's earlier than normal for him, but he's doing things a little differently coming off major surgery. The 43-year-old also estimated that his knee is at around "95 percent" recovered.
"It needs more strengthening," Rivera said. "The five percent will come quick."
As of now, there's every indication that Rivera will be ready for spring training and a potential save chance on Opening Day. Whether you are a Yankees fan or not, that's a cool thing to think about on this quiet January afternoon.

MANCHESTER — A Pembroke man, shot twice in the leg by police after a car chase last June in back alleys and on downtown streets, was indicted on seven felony charges, including two counts of attempted first-degree assault for allegedly trying to run down police officers with his Jeep Commander.
Christopher Varagianis, 37, of 12 Alyssa Drive, but currently being held in the Valley Street jail, also was indicted by a grand jury sitting in Hillsborough County Superior Court, Northern District, on five counts of reckless conduct. The panel also issued misdemeanor charges of two counts each of disobeying a police officer and resisting arrest.
The incident happened on June 3 and began outside the 7 Days Market on Union Street, where Varagianis was reportedly found unconscious in his Jeep.
According to police, he regained consciousness, rejected medical treatment and then drove off with mountain bike patrol officers in pursuit because they believed he was impaired. Those officers radioed for assistance, and two unmarked police cars joined the pursuit.
Varagianis refused to pull over and drove at a high rate of speed in back alleys and city streets, eventually ramming his Jeep into the front of the unmarked Chevrolet Yukon being operated by Detective Michael Lavallee, according to a preliminary report of the officer-involved shooting issued by the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office in June.
The vehicles were locked grill-to-grill, with each driver stepping on the accelerator, and officers outside yelling for Varagianis to stop.
Three officers fired their weapons that day, according to the attorney general's report: Detective Joseph Mucci, who fired two shots at the Jeep's tires, flattening one of them; Lavallee, who aimed low and fired at Varagianis as his Jeep broke free and was about to pass him and after he warned him that he was going to shoot; and an unidentified undercover officer who fired after he saw two other officers jump out of the way of the Jeep to avoid being hit.
The attorney general's report does not identify which officer or officers actually shot Varagianis.

Andrea Meislin Gallery Hosts Global Reach Inc. Exhibition
Andrea Meislin Gallery is pleased to present Global Reach Inc., the second solo exhibition by collaborative artists Alina and Jeff Bliumis. The exhibition thoughtfully examines the contemporary movement and relocation of peoples around the world as well as the growing commercialization of immigration by positing the question - can immigration be the new tourism? Opening Reception will be held on Saturday February 26th from 6 to 8 pm.
Transforming the gallery space into the headquarters of the fictitious travel conglomerate - Global Reach Inc. - Alina and Jeff have created a world where mobility is fluid and visas are cursory. By taking advantage of the artists' Relocation Consulting Services during bi-weekly office hours, you may have a private consultation to determine your ideal country to relocate to for a few years, or more. After conducting a visual quiz, Alina and Jeff will run your responses through their unique ranking system to establish the country most suited to you and provide information and facts, the cheapest available airfare there, and even on request a 'human link' for your arrival.
The exhibition features a large-scale installation titled Tourism A to Z of 195 postcards (one for each independent country on Earth), which depicts a tourist's view of each country coupled with screen-grabs relating to the immigration process. The installation visually encapsulates the often-homogenous representations of countries in the context of attracting immigrants and tourists. Eleven unique works on paper in the Which Country is the Best to Move to? Series capture the particular difficulties or benefits of immigrating to specific locales. Both the physical and the performative aspects of Global Reach Inc. speak to the dissonance between those who want to move and those in this world that need to move.
Alina and Jeff's work has been exhibited internationally including the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art (Russia), Busan Biennale 2006 (South Korea), Assab One (Italy), Castlefield Gallery (UK). Additionally their work belongs to various private and public collections, including the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, the Saatchi Collection (UK) and the Victoria and Albert Museum (UK). For more information please contact the gallery at email@example.com.

While parking around LIRR train stations is typically a challenge, even on a regular work day, the holidays create more of a struggle for commuters in search of parking spots. LIRR spokesman Salvatore Arena said that ridership between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day increases by at least 10 percent; last year it was by 12 percent. Though the MTA is adding more trains to the schedule, that doesn't ease the parking situation, which is operated not by the LIRR, but by individual municipalities in each town.
"Every station is different," Arena said. "A good part of our parking is in the hands of the locality. They set the rules essentially."

This brief tutorial will enable web application developers to harness the power of cloud computing database, Xeround, with the best PHP MVC framework in town, CodeIgniter.
Xeround is an Israeli web startup, launched back in 2005. It specializes in cloud database software technologies, operating in the PaaS domain. Xeround is primarily known for its MySQL cloud database, which it provides with a seamless frontend application. Its unique selling point is the ability to easily scale MySQL application on multiple platforms like Amazon EC2 and Rackspace. Xeround is positioned well in the MySQL cloud database market. Xeround's basic MySQL cloud database plan is free and pretty fast.
CodeIgniter on the other hand is an Open Source PHP MVC (Model View Controller) framework used to make high end and enterprise level web applications. The framework uses a popular MVC software design pattern, popular with most of the top web developers today. The high points of using CodeIgniter as your web application framework are massive, such as highly organized code, rapid application development and plethora of in built tools.
What will this tutorial teach you?
This tutorial aims to teach you to setup up a basic CodeIgniter application in conjunction with the Xeround cloud database, powered by Oracle's MySQL.
What will this tutorial NOT teach you?
This tutorial will NOT teach you to use CodeIgniter, MySQL, Phpmyadmin, FTP, HTML, CSS, XAMPP or the web stack.
So in a nutshell?
It rather enables you to learn the processes involved in helping you setup your next web application using CodeIgniter with a Xeround backend.
What will you need?
- An Internet connection, preferably fast.
- A working installation of XAMPP. You can download one here.
- Patience.
Setting up CodeIgniter
With your XAMPP already installed and configured on your computer (Windows, Mac or Linux), you active it by following these steps.
- Launch XAMPP application by clicking on this icon on your desktop.
- Now, ensure the first two features on the control panel are active. In order to enable Apache and MySQL, just click the Start buttons beside them and their status-es should turn green. That's it. You're on localhost.
- Now, open up your favorite browser, preferably Google Chrome and type in the following text in the address bar: localhost. If that doesn't work, type in 127.0.0.1. If everything went well previously, you should see something like this. (Obviously, if you have Linux or Windows, it will mention XAMPP for X OS).
Now, lets setup CodeIgniter. The first thing you should do is visiting Ellis Lab's CodeIgniter page by click here. When on the home page, click on the download button on the right side. Now its time to unzip.
Once the compressed file is unzipped, name it anything you like. We have named it "CodeIgniterApp". It is important to clean the folder of any junk, by deleting the license.txt and the user guide files. You wont need those.
To enable your CodeIgniter app to work on the localhost, which is a simulation of a website on a host, you need to copy it to your htdocs.
To do this, follow the directory structure to access your htdocs folder.
Windows Mac
C:/xampp/htdocs Applications/XAMPP/htdocs
Now, just drag and drop the "CodeIgniterApp" folder into htdocs. To ensure everything went fine, open up your browser and type in localhost/CodeIgniterApp. If successful, you should see this page and probably celebrate.
At this point in time, the CodeIgniter has been successfully setup. However, it doesn't require a database to function just to load up a simple dynamic Welcome page. As the objective of our tutorial is to use CodeIgniter with Xeround, let's take a break from the CodeIgniter side of things and create an Account on Xeround.
Setting up Xeround
As mentioned before, Xeround offers cloud database services for MySQL that are highly scalable with top notch companies providing instances such as Amazon and Rackspace.
Note: This part of the tutorial will create a sample Xeround account. The username and password will not be disclosed.
- First things first. Visit http://xeround.com/ to access the Xeround site. The home page pretty much summarizes the things we have discussed so far, such as scalability, availability and simplicity.
- Using the navigation bar on top, click sign up. Alternatively, you can click here. Enter your details and in the 'Expected DB Size' field, select Less than 0.5 GB. This is well good enough for a starter.
- Now, check your email for the confirmation link that was sent to you. At this point in time, you don't have to choose the password. That comes later when you click the confirmation link.
- Once you have set the password after clicking the confirmation link, you will be welcomed to the Xeround's primary dashboard. This can be accessed at https://cloud.xeround.com as well.
- To create your new Cloud Database in minutes, follow these steps:
- Choose to create your database Instance.
- Choose the free 10 MB Xeround FREE plan. You get:
a) Shared Environment
b) High Availability Guaranteed
c) Throughput: up to 1MB/s
d) Connections: up to 5
- Now you will be asked to choose your Data Centre. We recommend Amazon EC2. It's the best in the business right now. Highly reliable!
- The last step for creating your DB Instance asks you to fill in some crucial details. These may be the most important details of all. They are essential to get your web application up and running on a MySQL backend.
Here is a sample of what we've filled in for this tutorial account:
- Once every detail has been carefully filled in and stored in your memory, remember to do one last thing. Yes, you guessed it right. Click the big blue button that says Create.
- Once you have clicked Create, a dialog box will show up saying "DB Instance creation is in progress". Just close. The DB Instance has been created by now.
- The DB Management Dashboard now looks something like this, as shown in the image below. Explaining all the features of the dashboard is beyond the scope of this tutorial.
- Now, click the link under external DNS Hostname and login to your Phpmyadmin. Once there, create yourself a database. We named ours 'neil'. At this moment, just take note of your: Database name, user, pass and external DNS Hostname
Connecting Xeround with CodeIgniter
Now that we have our Xeround database setup, it is time to connect the database with CodeIgniter.
- Open the CodeIgniterApp folder that you placed earlier in the htdocs directory. Access the database.phpfile by following the directory structure: CodeIgniterApp/application/config/database.php
- Once you are in the file database.php, scroll down to line 51. Can you see the fields for hostname, username, password and database?
Currently, they are set to localhost but since we want Xeround, we would need to add the details in the blank spaces using the notes we took earlier. By the way, Xeround works on localhost and web!
So based on the tutorial account details, it looks like this once its filled:
$db['default']['hostname'] = instance26267.db.xeround.com:16438;
$db['default']['username'] = 'user';
$db['default']['password'] = 'pass';
$db['default']['database'] = 'neil';
Note: Although you do not have access to the tutorial Xeround account we created, you can still use these database instance details. However, we recommend you create your own. This is only for demonstration purposes.
Tip: In order to avoid lagging, it is better to disable persistent connections within your CodeIgniter application by editing line 57 of database.php. You simply have to set $db['default']['pconnect'] = FALSE; to false. This ensures that there are no lags, since there is a limit of 5 connections in the Xeround FREE plan.
Congratulations. You have successfully completed the essential portion of the tutorial. You have connected your Xeround Cloud Database with your CodeIgniter application. What's next? Well, its time for some testing.
Testing your application
Lets create a sample table structure.
- Go to application/controllers/ and create a controller: tables.php.
- Add the following code and save it. The code is already supplied in the zip folder attached with this tutorial (namely CodeIgniterApp.zip).
So what this does is basically creates a Controller called Tables, loads the DBForge class of CodeIgniter (used to create tables) and creates a table called Test_Table. If returns messages on the success or failure.
- Run the tables' controller by type in the following address in your favorite browser's address bar: http://localhost/CodeIgniterApp/index.php/tables
- You should now see a message on your browser that says that the table "Test Table" has been created successfully. You can even confirm this by going back to your Phpmyadmin dashboard.
Now lets try adding some real world data into our table. To do that, we will create a small application that stores users' first and last name. Since the scope of the tutorial is not to teach CodeIgniter or programming whatsoever, the files have been supplied to enable you to learn. The end result of the small application is shown below.
Oh by the way, don't forget to turn on the following autoload.php options by going into CodeIgniterApp/application/config/autoload.php:
You can get the sample code used in this article hereShare Now:

Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Great warm personality great customer service
Saint Louis, MO
I hired Express Plumbing to rough in a bathroom in my basement. I can not express enough how impressed I was. They were wonderful to work with. They are so professional and really go the extra mile to satisfy the customer. There price was very reasonable and lower than several other companies. I am so thankful that I went with a smaller company where customer satisfaction is so important. I was impressed with their work during every step of the process. They were great and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The owner was great to work with. They really cared and wanted me to be pleased. The quality of their work was great. I wish I could post pictures. I love my new bathroom and I will definitely use Express Plumbing again for all my plumbing needs. I love this company!

A MAN accused of raping a woman and confessing to it when she confronted him with a hidden voice recorder will face a retrial.
Matthew Landells, 24, was acquitted of perverting the course of justice and assault after a Teesside Crown Court trial last week.
A jury could not reach a verdict on a charge of rape, and prosecutors asked for seven days to decide whether a retrial should be sought.
A date has not been fixed for the new case, and Mr Landells, of Ann Swyft Road, Newton Aycliffe, was granted bail until it is.

Linux Kernel
4 Comments
Linux 3.8 kernel
was released on Monday afternoon by Linus Torvalds. This is a very exciting kernel update.
Since the release of Linux 3.7 in early December there have been many changes presented for Linux 3.8, which are covered in the Phoronix
3.8 feature overview
article. Among the highlights are the introduction of the new F2FS file-syste, EXT4 inline data support, true CPU hot-plug support, Intel i386 support removal, new processor enablement, Radeon driver performance improvements, Intel DRM work, and a whole lot more.
For those interested in benchmarks of Linux 3.8, among the in-house Phoronix tests to date include
F2FS file-system benchmarks
EXT4 and Btrfs on Linux 3.8
Intel Ivy Bridge HD 4000 benchmarks
, a
Nouveau 5-way GPU comparison
NVIDIA GeForce 600 Linux performance
faster AMD Radeon graphics
, and
other 3.8 benchmarks
Linus announced the Linux 3.8 release with
this mailing list message
. There's still a Btrfs fix that wasn't merged for Linux 3.8 but it looks like that will be staved off until a stable point release.
Next up now is the
Linux 3.9 kernel
with its merge window opening this week. There's already
a lot of fun merges planned
for this next kernel development cycle.

Nearly every day there is another disgusting story regarding the outright parasitic behavior of public unions in California. Today I have a pair of recent articles to present. The first is entitled Californian's $609,000 Check Shows True Retirement Cost. That article is part of a stunning six-part series by authors Michael B. Marois and Rodney Yap. I encourage you to click on the link and read the entire piece.Also consider Calpers Bankruptcy Strategy Pits Retirees vs. All Others.
The California Public Employees' Retirement System is trying to rewrite the rules for bankrupt cities, claiming that it should get paid before almost everyone else, including bondholders.The biggest U.S. public pension fund would set a legal precedent should courts adopt Calpers's position that, as an arm of the state, it is exempt from rules that apply to other creditors in the Chapter 9 bankruptcy cases of San Bernardino and Stockton. A Calpers victory would threaten public services in a city trying to reorganize in bankruptcy, or in an extreme case, cause a city to disincorporate, attorney James E. Spiotto said in an interview. "Chapter 9 was never intended to cause the liquidation of a municipality or the reduction of services," said Spiotto, who isn't involved in the San Bernardino and Stockton cases. "What Calpers is doing is threatening the basic tenet of Chapter 9."Pension costs for retired public employees are straining local governments from California to Rhode Island. In Southern California, San Bernardino says it is so strapped for cash it must put off $13 million in payments to Calpers or risk public safety. About 400 miles (644 kilometers) north, creditors of Stockton are fighting Calpers in court as well, arguing that the pension fund shouldn't be given preferential treatment and urging the city to take an aggressive stance in negotiations.San Bernardino will battle Calpers in a federal court in Riverside, California, on Dec. 21 over two related legal issues: whether Calpers can sue the city to force it to make about $7 million in missed payments and whether the city should be kicked out of bankruptcy. Calpers blames elected officials for San Bernardino's financial problems, saying in an e-mail that they made "irresponsible and short-sighted" decisions. Cutting back on what the city owes employees would make it hard to recruit qualified workers, Calpers spokesman Robert Glazier said.
Both house speaker John Boehner and president Obama have given ground in the "fiscal cliff" drama. The sides are still far apart but concessions now are steady. The fact there is ongoing movement makes a deal possible. Will we get there? Can Boehner get enough in return on entitlement cutbacks? On that score the president has barely budged, but the stock market sure seems to think a deal will be reached.Please consider Boehner floats 'Plan B' as cliff deadline nears.
House Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday floated a back-up plan to raise taxes on incomes of $1 million and above, even as Republicans and the White House were moving closer to a deal to avert the fiscal cliff. Dubbed "Plan B" by the Ohio Republican, the proposal was met with immediate pushback from the White House and Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, who said it cannot pass both houses of Congress.The speaker said he remains confident a deal can be done before the end of the year. But he dismissed Obama's latest offer as unbalanced. Boehner said he wants $1 trillion in spending cuts for $1 trillion in revenue."That would be my version of a balanced approach," he said.
Taxes: Monday night, Obama dropped his long-held insistence that rates rise for incomes of $250,000 and above. The new target: allowing Bush-era rates to expire for incomes of more than $400,000. The speaker is willing to accept higher rates on $1 million incomes and above. Chances are that neither side is done moving toward the other. Could $500,000 be the sweet spot?Spending: Obama has offered $1.2 trillion in spending cuts, including $400 billion in savings from entitlement programs. That's a $50 billion increase in entitlement savings, but still far from the $1 trillion in entitlement cuts sought by Boehner. Debt ceiling: Some Republicans had wanted to use the threat of default to push the White House to make spending cuts. But last week, Boehner offered a one-year increase in the debt ceiling as part of a fiscal-cliff deal — as long as it is coupled with corresponding spending cuts. But Obama upped the ante on Monday night, calling for a two-year extension. (He'd originally wanted unlimited power to raise the ceiling.)

Diabetes Effects on the Baby
Diabetes makes a pregnancy high risk. This is because diabetes can cause many potentially negative effects on the baby as well as the mother. Blood sugar is the baby's food source and it passes from the mother through the placenta to the baby.
When a woman has diabetes and her blood sugars are poorly controlled (too high), excess amounts of sugar are transported to the baby. Since the baby does not have diabetes, he/she is able to increase the production of insulin substantially in order to use this extra sugar. This abnormal cycle of events can result in several complications including:
Macrosomia (large baby)
Macrosomia refers to a baby born weighing more than 4,000g (8.8 pounds) or born at greater than the 90 percentile for the gestational age. In response to the excess amounts of sugar that the baby receives, large amounts of insulin are produced by the baby in order to convert the sugar into body fat. That is, the baby is being "overfed" while inside the uterus.
As a result, the delivery can be more difficult for the baby and the mother with increased risk for injury to both. In addition, the odds of requiring a cesarean delivery can be much greater when the baby is too large. Most obstetricians perform an ultrasound to estimate the fetal weight before delivery and to determine if it is safe to attempt a vaginal delivery. Trying to deliver a very large baby vaginally, particularly when the mother has diabetes, can result in one of the most frightening obstetrical emergencies, a shoulder dystocia, where the baby's head delivers but the shoulders are too large to fit through the birth canal.
Neonatal Hypoglycemia
Neonatal hypoglycemia is defined as low blood sugars in the baby after birth. If the baby's pancreas is making large amounts of insulin in response to the mother's high blood sugars, it will continue to do so for a time after delivery. Since the sugar supply from the mother is no longer present once the baby has delivered, blood sugar can drop too low (hypoglycemia, blood sugar < 40 mg/dl). The baby can become fussy, jittery or may even have a seizure or breathing problems.
Because of these possible complications, most babies born to women with diabetes will be monitored very closely for the first few hours of life with frequent heel sticks to check their blood sugars. These babies may require more frequent breast or bottle-feeding to maintain their blood sugars at a normal range and in some cases will require intravenous fluids with glucose.
Other Neonatal Metabolic Problems
In addition to hypoglycemia, the excess insulin can also infrequently be responsible for other metabolic complications such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin) and imbalances of calcium or magnesium. The chances of a baby being born with diabetes are extremely rare particularly in cases where the mother has gestational diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes tends to run in families and offspring may be at increased risk for developing it in adulthood. Children of mothers with Type 1 diabetes have less than a 5% chance of developing diabetes during childhood. In fact, the baby has a greater risk if his/her father has Type 1 diabetes.
When blood sugars are persistently high, blood vessel damage in the placenta and poor oxygen and nutrient supply to the baby can occur. This decrease in oxygen may cause health damage to the baby including death or stillbirth. This rarely occurs in pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes and is more likely to occur if the mother had diabetes (either Type 1 or 2) before the pregnancy (pre-gestational diabetes). Because of this, women with pre-gestational diabetes should be monitored more closely toward the end of pregnancy.
Birth Defects
In the general population, there is about a 2 to 3% risk for having a baby with a major birth defect. Babies born to mothers with gestational diabetes do not have a greater risk of birth defects than the general population.
In women with pregestational diabetes, this risk is increased about three to fourfold particularly if blood sugars are high during the early weeks of pregnancy. This is the developmental time period when the baby is forming its vital organs. The risk for having a baby with one of these birth defects is directly correlated with how poorly the blood sugar was controlled during the first few weeks of pregnancy.
The most common birth defects are those of the brain, spinal cord and heart. The majority of these birth defects can be detected during the first half of the pregnancy with ultrasound studies and prenatal diagnostic tests. Having diabetes does not increase the risk for having a baby with a chromosome problem such as Down syndrome over the age-related risk. The key to minimizing the risks for having a baby with a birth defect is to seek preconception medical care in order to optimize blood sugar control before becoming pregnant.

Montreal Canadiens at Philadelphia Flyers (-150, 5.5)
The Habs are hanging on to the final postseason ticket in the Eastern Conference with white knuckles. Montreal is sitting in eighth with just two points separating it from the Atlanta Thrashers.
The Canadiens have lost back-to-back games heading into Friday and have only one win in their past six games. Montreal's offense has fallen flat in that stretch, scoring fewer than two goals per game. The Habs already have one of the worst scoring attacks in the NHL, ranked 24th in goals and 26th in shots per game.
"The guillotine's tightening," goaltender Carey Price told the Montreal Gazette. "It's a crunch time. Five games (to play). This is what makes it fun. It's always more fun to be in a race than to be sitting and watching this position."
It seems total bettors are the only ones having fun during this slump. Montreal's offensive woes have led the team to play under the betting total in five of those six games. The Canadiens are 32-41 over/under this season.
Pick: Under
Chicago Blackhawks at New Jersey Devils (-130, 5.5)
The Blackhawks were hoping to be picking up momentum at this time in the schedule – not snapping losing streaks.
Chicago put an end to a three-game slide with a 4-0 road win against the Minnesota Wild Wednesday night. That victory was just the team's third win in the past 10 games, dropping the Stanley Cup sleeper to second in the Western Conference. If the young Blackhawks can build off this latest win, they can still make a run at the San Jose Sharks, who lead them by three points in the standings.
'We just got to continue to work,'' defenseman Brent Seabrook told the Chicago Sun-Times. ''I don't think we want to worry about a turning point or that things are going to be easy now. We just got to continue to work and continue to play hard and do the little things.''
Chicago owns back-to-back victories over the Devils, winning their first meeting of the season 5-1 back in December.
Pick: Blackhawks

Play - Penn State
Edges - Nittany Lions: 5-1 ATS conference home dog 4 or more points. Spartans: 5-13 SU in this series, including 1-8 SU here.
With PSU head coach James Franklin 19-9 SU and 16-7 ATS at home in his head coaching career, look for the Lions to avoid their first losing record at hem since 2003 with a stunning shocker here today. We recommend a 1-unit play on Penn State. Thank you and good luck as always.
• Look: Marc's famous 5* College Football Most Valuable Play kicks off Saturday. He is documented 64-28 on these legendary 5* releases, including 2-0 this season. Best of all its backed with an awesome angle inside the game that is 100% ATS perfect since 1990. Get it right here, right now - don't miss out!
