The quick disconnect LNB:
The quick disconnect LNB:
This is a rule that I always find difficult to enforce. Since switching into contracting mode, I am often at any particular studio once per week or less. It seems to me, no matter what signs are posted or what words are spoken, the DJ seems to hear; "It is okay to eat and drink in the studio."
Of course, with that attitude, the inevitable is bound to happen:
To make things worse, this was spilled on the main mic on/off buttons. These button membranes come in groups of six and are not inexpensive. The complaint was "The main mic will not turn off." Ah well, I am paid to fix things after all. The DJ's are only inconveniencing themselves at this point.
Here in the good ole' US of A, today is election day. I try to stay away from politics, that is not what this blog is about. However, once in a while, a good public service announcement is required. So, this year, if you are a citizen and eligible to, go vote. People say, "Oh but it is a midterm election, it does not matter." Horse hockey, every election matters. Think of it this way; for 364 days out of the year, the politicians are fucking you. You get one day to return the favor. I suggest you use it wisely.
Remember way back when, perhaps in high school or college, you met this really cool person who seemed to be wonderful in every way? Yeah, then you got to know them a little better and, well, those first impressions changed a little bit.
The Crossed Field Antenna (CFA) sort of reminds me of my first prom date. There was a lot of promise there, but plans fell through.
From a 1999 Radio World article:
This potential new antenna was all the rage during the early 00's or whatever you call that decade. I remember thinking to myself; I will believe it when I see the test results. At one point, there was a battery of tests run in the installation in Egypt and China. The test results are spotty at best, however, none of these installation performed up to expectations. While it looks like a cool idea, and it would have been great to see it succeed, it seems that sheer will power alone will not make a particular system work outside of the laws of physics. There are a few of these still in operation out in the wild, mostly in Egypt.
This happened recently at an AM station we were doing work for. It seems the modulation monitor was not working when connected to the backup transmitter. A quick check of the RG-58 coax showed that I had the correct cable plugged into the monitor selector relay. Another check with an ohm meter showed the cable was okay. Then I looked at the connector on the monitor port of the transmitter and saw this:
Looks like the pin is too far back in the connector. This is an old style BNC connector with a solder in center pin:
The center pin has a blob of solder on it, preventing it from seating properly in the connector body. I could have lopped it off and applied a new crimp on connector, but my crimp tool was in the car. I didn't feel like walking all the way through the studio building, out into the parking lot and getting it. Therefore, I used a file and filed off the solder blob then reassembled the connector:
The transmitter was installed in 1986, I think the connector had been like that for a long time.
It may seem like a small detail to have the modulation monitor working on the backup transmitter, however, the modulation monitor is also the air monitor for the studio. Switching to the backup transmitter but not having a working air monitor would likely have caused confusion and the staff might think they are still off the air. I know in this day and age, a lot of station do not even have backup transmitters, but when something is available, it should work correctly.
I like my cool network analyzer and all that, but sometimes it is the Mark 1, Mod 0 eyeball that gets the job done.
With the spate of ransomware and crypto virus attacks on automation systems, perhaps a quick review of network security is in order:
The office network is more vulnerable because of the human element. Internet access is require, of course. Click on a pop up, sure! Hey, that photograph has a funny file extension, lets open it and see what it is. I never heard of this person before, but look, they sent me an executable!
Much of the office network security will rely on the quality of the router connected to the internet and the antivirus software installed. Of course, the network users have a good deal of responsibility also.
In light of recent events…
You know, in this day and age, one can subscribe to certain ideas or religious viewpoints and pull some pretty serious shit. You might even get away with it. That being said, here is a bit of advice: Do not fuck with Canada.
A theorem is not, indeed, a fact. It is rather, an idea which is deduced and supported by other proven facts. Thus, a theorem is generally believed a truth. It should be of interest to the "All Digital" AM (AKA Medium Wave) proponents that noise on the digital channel will reduce data throughput as a function of channel bandwidth and Signal to Noise Ratio. This is known as the Shannon-Hartley theorem:
With this equation, one can discern a fundamental flaw in the all digital logic. One of the main issues with AM Medium Wave broadcasting is the ever increasing noise floor. Our society has changed drastically in the last one hundred years or so since AM was invented. Electrical noise generators; computers, plasma screen monitors, mobile phones, appliances, energy efficient lighting, data over power line, street lights, poor utility line maintenance, even electric cars, it seems, generate a cacophony of noise in the Medium Wave frequency band. A digital modulation scheme, be it HD Radio or DRM, will mask the noise to a certain extent, that is true. However, once the SNR exceeds the ability of the receiver to decode the necessary bits, the receiver will mute. While it is true, the listener will not hear noise, they may not hear anything at all.
I will also note; none of the current "AM improvement" schemes under consideration by the FCC addresses the noise issue on the AM band. Without addressing the noise issue, any digital modulation scheme will be a temporary fix at the very best. The noise floor will continue to rise and after it gets high enough, the all digital modulation will simply not work.
It will be interesting to see the data from the all digital HD Radio testing that is being done in various locations. That is, if the NAB, et al. does not decide to treat that data like some kind of state secret; they have become reticent of late. When somebody acts like they have something to hide, it makes me think they have something to hide…
More and more wireless LAN links are being installed between the transmitter and studio. Often these links are used for network extension, remote control, site security, VIOP telephony, and sometimes even as a main STL. These systems come in several flavors:
For the first two categories of WLAN equipment, standard lightning protection measures are usually adequate:
For the second two types of WLAN equipment, special attention is need with the ethernet cable goes between the tower and POE injector or switch. Shielded, UV resistant cable is a requirement. On an AM tower, the shielded cable must also be run inside a metal conduit. Due to the skin effect, the metal conduit will keep most of the RF away from the ethernet cable. Crossing a base insulator of a series excited tower presents a special problem.
The best way to get across the base insulator of a series excited tower is to use fiber. This precludes the use of POE which means that AC power will be needed up on the tower to power the radio and fiber converter. This my not be a huge problem if the tower is lit and the incandescent lighting system can be upgraded to LEDs. A small NEMA 4 enclosure can house the fiber converter and POE injector to run the WLAN radio. Some shorter AM towers are no longer lit.
Another possible method would be to fabricate an RF choke out of copper tubing. This is the same idea as a tower lighting choke or a sample system that uses tower mounted loops. I would not recommend this for power levels over 10 KW or on towers that are over 160 electrical degrees tall. Basically, some 3/8 or 1/2 inch copper tubing can be wound into a coil through which a shielded ethernet cable can be run. Twenty to twenty five turns, 12 inches in diameter will work for the upper part of the band. For the lower part, the coil diameter should be 24 inches.
In all cases where CAT 5 or 6 cable is used on a tower, it must be shielded and the proper shielded connectors must be used. In addition, whatever is injecting power into the cable, ether POE injector or POE switch must be very well grounded. The connector on the shielded Cat5 or 6 cable must be properly applied to ensure the shield is grounded. A good video from Ubiquiti, which makes TOUGHCable, on application of connectors to shielded Cat5 cable is here:
In addition to that, some type of surge suppressor at the base of the tower is also needed. Tramstector makes several products to protect low voltage data circuits.
These units are very well made and designed to mount to a tower leg. They come with clamps and ground conductor designed to bolt to a standard copper ground buss bar.
There are various models designed to pass POE or even 90 VDC ring voltage.
This model is for POE. The circuit seems to consist mostly of TVS diodes clamping the various data conductors.
As more and more of these systems are installed and become a part of critical infrastructure, more thought needs to be given to lightning protection, redundancy and disaster recovery in the event of equipment failure.
Things seem to be relatively quite these days, no earth shattering developments, no big news stories, etc. My work load consists of mostly driving to one location and cleaning things up, then driving to another location and cleaning more things up. Nothing really new to write about. However, industry wide, there have been some developments of note:

The word "suffer" has seemed to reemerge into America's vernacular lately. It's been used to describe a variety of events in the U.S. recently, from the economic downturn to enduring being stuck in traffic with the radio stuck on Christmas music…in November (happened yesterday, and I almost broke my faceplate in half). Fortunately for us, Thad Reid has already endured his share of difficult moments on his way to the top, and this time around he shines the light on the people that didn't back him when he was at lower points in his career, making sure that they have their turn to Suffer Too. Dichter 2 Productions shines on the track, creating a one-two punch that incorporates Reid's hardened style with an upbeat, bass (and brass) heavy production. If listeners like this track from the self-proclaimed "Voice of the Commonwealth," be sure to check out his EP, Paid Time Off, out now. As always, keep it locked to the Booth for more.

text: 4.5 I ain't gonna bite, pro'ly theWub | 14/09/2012 | See all theWub's reviews (135) I was concerned that I might not like BORDERLANDS, as I've played games with stylised graphics before and have found this type of design can reduce the immersive qualities that I love about gaming. I need not have worried. Borderlands is one of the best games I've played. The visuals are very impressive and suck you right in. This is open-world gaming at it's best, with many large maps to explore as you complete the numerous missions. There are hundreds of weapons to collect and use, or sell along the way (gathering loot quickly becomes addictive). A wide variety of enemies will take you on as you progress up the levels. The combat is varied and the AI is good if not exceptional. Although there's little story to speak of there's enough humour to just about make up for this. It's possible that some might find the missions a tad repetitive but I was so engrossed in the game that I didn't tire of them and completed every one, including the 3 DLCs available. As for multi-player, well co-op is great fun but best played with people who you can rely on to share the loot. 4.5/5

HB ON THE SCENE:AmericInn Touts 'Tremendous Year' for Chain

LAS VEGAS—Some 500 attendees at the annual AmericInn Convention being held here at Bally's/Paris Las Vegas couldn't help but feel lucky in this casino-centric town after getting the news from President/CEO Paul Kirwin that 2012 marked a "tremendous year" for the midscale chain, particularly in terms of systemwide revenue.
"We indeed have much to celebrate and be grateful for at AmericInn," Kirwin told the crowd. "Chainwide RevPAR grew by over 6% boosting systemwide revenue to an all-time high of $195 million. So both brand revenue and individual hotel revenue were up significantly."
He added brand contribution to hotel revenue "rose to 50% with CRS contribution reaching an all-time high of 32%."
Tied to this are improvements in guest satisfaction and product scores.
"This is great news since it's just what we were after when we launched the AmericInn Refresh PIP program two years ago," said Kirwin.
He noted the brand has plans in motion to act on owners' requests that the Refresh program tackle improving guest bathrooms. "Throughout 2012 we spent extensive time researching our options, testing renovations at our Chanhassen property and discussing the results with our Owners Advisory Board. In the end we elected to commit the brand to upgrading the vanity areas by 2015 and to progressively renovating the shower and toilet areas through transfer, renewal and QA PIPs," said the CEO.
The brand also added to its distribution, opening two new-build hotels and three conversions. The chain now has 225 properties open or under development.
Looking ahead, after doing a beta test at 25 of its properties, the brand this May plans to bring TripAdvisor ratings on to property websites along with five reviews. It also will change out its CRS provider in 2014, moving from Travelynx to Trust International.

TTC or Pregnant Hyperemesis Gravidarum Sufferers and Survivors #31

Posted 04 March 2013 - 03:16 PM
Hey girls, I visited this thread before when I was pregnant, it has helped me so much to get through the pregnancy , and after the baby I got so busy and did not come very often.
firstly, I wish to tell the girls who are still struggling, the moment you hold your bundle of joy in your hands, you will realise all these suffers are nothing and worth every single moment of the nausea, every bit of the throwing up and just hang in there, its all worth it after all.
second thing, I wish to ask mums who has more than one kids, how do you manage a HG pregnancy with another toddler at home. It is hard enough for me to get through with my mum caring for me , now I am thinking about baby number 2( I really thought NO MORE at the time, but then , the bright smile at bub's face erased all the suffering , and yeah, I want another one despite the horrible nausea and throwing up) just not sure how am I going to cope this time around if I get pregnant again. My ob said that every pregnancy is different and I might not end up with HG again, however, my mum had HG when pregnant with me, so the chances are still pretty high I guess.
will really appreciate any of you sharing your own experience.
Posted 08 March 2013 - 09:08 AM
Melmeln - the chances are you will have HG again, and need to plan contingencies to work around it with a toddler.
30 weeks and had an awful day yesterday, v depressing
Posted 08 March 2013 - 02:41 PM
Hi All Tiff here...
WOW! I can't believe this group is still going!
I haven't been on EB for a few years, in fact, my login no longer worked because I don't have the same email! And I don't know if any original members are still here, but I started this group in 2007 (8 time survivor of HG).
I am so pleased to see that it continues to be a support to women suffering from this dreadful disorder.
For those who may still remember me... my children have almost grown. DD is 20 this year, and DS is 15 this year. After our awful HG journey, we gave up on having another baby (after 3 TOPs and 3 MC due to HG).
We left Queensland at the end of 2010 and moved to South Australia, and I am currently working as a midwife in Adelaide. If anything our experiences with HG enables us to empathise and help other women who endure it.
Thanks so much for keeping this thread alive for all these years! I am so proud of the group for continuing to be a support for HG mums; and the women who perserve through this desperate and severe illness.
Sending well wishes to those currently unwell. And hugs to all.
Zimmie (Tiff)

Checking in, ladies! I had hyperemesis with my first, normal morning sickness with my second and am now 5w0d with my third, and scared as all hell that I'm going to relive hg this time around. I haven't been feeling too bad but the anxiety around it is a little intense.
Reading back now.
Posted 09 April 2013 - 08:15 PM
Hope it all goes well, kkbelle!
I'm now 35 weeks. I had a bad couple of days about three weeks ago when zofran wasn't even touching the vomiting/nausea, but back to normal again now. Normal being on daily zofran and still fairly picky about eating. Much better than the first 20 or so weeks, though.
Posted 10 April 2013 - 10:29 AM
Just reposting here from my thread. Someone refereed me here..I didn't even know this group existed..so i'm very grateful to have found it.
It's been like this for a little over 3 weeks and i've had enough. I can't keep anything down..not even my own saliva. The last two days have been the worst...can't eat and can only drink water at night...everything stinks and sets off my vomiting, i'm weak and sick of getting up to run to the toilet. The only relief I get is at night and that flies by. I've tried everything!! Maxalon...morning sickness tablets...eating small meals...ginger...dry crackers...there is only so much I can take!!
I keep telling myself...it's worth it in the end!
Thanks for listening!
Posted 10 April 2013 - 11:48 AM
3sACharm my sister had the salivia thing as well. I think it is called pylatism. She had to spit in a bucket. She sipped on soda water for that. Hang in there I know it is terrible.
I luckily I guess didn't have that aspect of HG.
RealityBites glad you are getting to the business end if things.
Tiff glad you called in this is a revolving door thread sometimes quiet for ages as most are too sick to post or have baby and never want to think bout HG lol.
Melmein they always try that every pregnancy is different but as most find out with HG it means worse. I don't know how people with toddlers do it again. It would not be possible for me. You would need a lot of help.
Posted 10 April 2013 - 12:06 PM
Hi girls, just checking in! 32 weeks here and finally no more meds!!! Now it's just the reflux that is making me
Vomit and that's awful as it burns so much, but not being nauseas all the time is a nice change. It will get better girls, just hang in there!
Having HG with a toddler has been really hard though, to the PP that was asking. It meant lots of time off work for my DH also, my mum flying interstate to stay with us for a while to help out, booking extra days of Childcare where possible, and just trying not to let the guilt overwhelm me when DS was left to his own devices and I threw food to him from the couch! He has survived and is doing well, is really excited about the baby coming and doesn't seem to remember those really dark months when things were at their worst. But there is no way I could ever go through this again. Friends laugh as I said this after the first HG pregnancy, but we'd always wanted 2 children and I had an overwhelming desired or another when DS turned 2, but I definitely know my limits and I can't do another HG pregnancy.
This thread really helped me through the dark times and it was such a relief to know that I wasn't alone and that the thoughts I had we're all normal and part of HG. I can now happily say that I am looking forward to this baby arriving and all the dark thoughts are behind me.
Reality I hope you are doing ok! Just think, not long to go now, hang in there!!! Xx
Posted 13 April 2013 - 10:51 AM
Today is another bad day...so tired with no energy, I've had to resort to a bucket next to the bed to vomit in. Maxalon is hardly working and my body is craving everything but my stomach says no. I just want this to end! I took metamucil yesterday because I haven't had a bowel movement in a week and a bit..and the only wee's I do are in the morning after i've had a night drinking water.
I don't know what to do...i'm so tired of fighting..I can't stop crying
Posted 13 April 2013 - 01:22 PM
Oh love it sounds like you need to get to the hospital for some IV rehydration and Zofran. The zofran will stop the vomiting and you really need fluids. My OB out me straight in as soon as my urine output was like you describe. You start to run the risk of organ problems if you're not getting enough water, and when you're vomiting all the time an IV is the only way to get it in and keep it in. Can you call your dr to arrange an admission? Otherwise they tend you make you wait in the ED and send you home before you've had enough fluids, but if you can get your dr to arrange a bed in maternity for you it makes all the difference.
I know how hard it is, hang in there, and the zofran and fluids really do make a difference! Xxxx
Posted 13 April 2013 - 01:50 PM
Yes 3sacharm you need the zofran and probably a hospital rehydration. Then you may feel a little better.
Posted 18 April 2013 - 03:53 PM
3sacharm i really hope you got yourself to hospital hun, dehydration is terrible once is sets in.
I thought it time i home myself in here, im 9 weeks preg with #3 and battling the dreaded HG.
Ive lost 10kgs and been in hospital three times (weeks 6,7 & 8) for dehydration.
Im now on a combo of restavit, b6, maxalon, zofran and a stemetil suppository. Still sick 2-10 times a day. Im really hanging on trying to avoid hospital until next week, the meds are helping but im definitely not taking in enough water. I just sent DH out for watermelon, if i cant drink water i may as well try and eat it.
I had HG with my daughter (whole way thru) but not with my son.
Its kind of a backhanded milestone to have experienced one amazing vomit free pregnancy, only to be thrown into the oncoming traffic twice as hard the next time around.
I am getting my tubes tied after this baby, i never want to go through this ever again. It is scary to think that if it was as bad as this the first time i definitely wouldnt have had my son or be pregnant now.
I am clinging on to this pregnancy for my DH, this is his first baby and he is moving the earth to try and support me as best he can.
I know at 9 weeks im in the worst of it, im praying for 20 weeks to come around so that this miserable experience will hopefully be over.
Would love to hear how you ladies managed to gain weight back after a heavy first tri loss? Ive lost 1/6 of my body weight and am eating like a sparrow.. I cant see it happening?!

Well I was admitted to hospital on the 15th for rehydration. They gave me two bags of fluid and 1 zofran which brought me back to normal....until yesterday Threw up three times yesterday and only once so far today...maxalon seems to be holding but i'm scared of drinking & eating in high chance i'll throw it back up again. I really didn't want to go backwards..and having a scan last week shows that i'm actually ahead in my dates making me 10+5 today so i'm hoping relief is coming soon! I'm going to send DH out for some poweraid soon and i'll be sipping on that to see if that helps. DH is back to work tonight and I don't know how i'm gonna cope...fingers crossed it will be easy.
Expedit99 I'm really feeling for you darl! I feel bad complaining about my symptoms when you are in your darkest days. My prayers go out to you my dear that relief is just around the corner and I send you strength, I honestly couldn't go thru it that bad and you must be so exhausted!
Posted 22 April 2013 - 11:28 AM
3'sAcharm make sure you get a prescription for Zofran as well. You may need to take it ongoing. I use to have two 4mgs tabs a day sometimes three on a bad day.
Expedit it really is a tough road. I hope it is short-lived for you.

3saCharm - Yes, ditch the maxolon and get zofran wafers, also try restavit etc.
Expedit - I still eat like I have bad HG, that is, whatever I feel like. It's hard to explain to someone who hasn't had HG, the psychological state lingers for a long time. I don't do healthy pregnancy eating, and not really three meals a day, or vegetables, mostly easy carbs. So the weight has crept back on again. I only lost 5kg but am now about 3kg above pre-pregnancy weight, so have put on 8kg somehow. Last pregnancy after the birth I was 13kg under pre-pregnancy weight but I was overweight to begin with, so all was good.
I really feel for you at 9 weeks, right in the hell hole
I am okay, still on zofran daily and haven't had a really bad time for a while now. I have been worried about my eating habits but I guess with three weeks to go it doesn't really matter. The baby is a good size and apparently healthy.

Ive had a tough week too I guess its better been than my past two because im not in hospital but jeez, when does it end!! Im really trying to focus on the positives; My vitamin b6/restavit combo allows me to sleep nausea-free at night, its been a welcome reprieve from being ill all day long. 11 weeks tomorow and Ive been travelling steady enough to ditch the maxalon and stemetil and get by with an 8mg zofran in the morning.. Suffer between 3-8pm when it starts to wear off until the restavit/b6 at bedtime.
Yesterday was a write-off, not enough fluids and in bed all day long.
I went through three ziplock bags on the school run this morning, was too ill to drive safely, lucky DH was home. Im going to try some Ensure Plus smoothies to try and keep some calories in, food is such a battle ATM.. getting it in is almost as tough as trying not chucking it up at the moment
3sacharm we are very close in dates, fingers crossed the next trimester beings us some much needed relief!!

Hi Ladies, I havent been in here for a long time and I seen (unfortunately) there are quite a few newbies
I have been going quite well, it settled around 16wks for me and 1 zofran a day kept it under wraps and I could eat normally again. I'm now 32wks and things have started to turn sour again. I was wondering if any past sufferers experienced this, a worsening in the 3rd trimester? Scared I'm going to bring on preterm labour amongst the unpleasantness of HG.
Hope everyone is surviving the day the best they can. xxx

Hi there,
Well, I have followed this thread since before my pregnancy as I had HG with my DS 4 yrs ago.
Unfortunately I am now really needing to post. I am 11 wks pg and having a shocking time. I have followed Expedit and 3's through some of this pregnancy, sympathising with their journeys.
I am just SO sick ATM and can't get any relief. I am taking 2 x 8 mg Zofran a day (max dose) and can't take much else due to allergies. It has barely contained the vomiting to 5-10 vomits a day and the nausea is still horrific.
To add insult to injury I now have a rotten sinus head cold to add to it and that is making me even more dizzy and vomit more. Writing this post is a nightmare and has had many pauses.
I have awful stomach cramps and just so miserable. I feel like I'm totally neglecting my two other kids and poor DH is desperately trying to keep things afloat.
I just feel like I can't cope. As much as I would never do it, I have even found myself considering terminating the pregnancy. If you knew me you would understand how "not me" that is. Then I am overwhelmed with more guilt.
How on earth do you survive this?! I just want it all to end.
I have an appt with my OB today, but I don't know what good it's going to do. What more can be done?
Sorry for not addressing other posters. I'm sorry your journeys are tough. I'm just having a selfish pity party right now.

Literally taking a break in between chucks to write back here. Literally. Ugh night times are my worst!!!
SemiRuralGirl I've been following your posts too hun. There is nothing I can say.. except that I probably could have written your entire post myself
I dont think any woman has actually hit the pit of serious HG if the thought of termination hasn't ever crossed her mind. Especially in the first trimester when the meds barely touch the sides and there is no other way out. We TTC for 6 months to get this baby, it was very much loved and wanted, and I was still lying in a crumpled heap on my toilet floor from weeks 5-8 after 30 vomits a day BEGGING my other half not to judge me for wanting to end it. I even booked an appointment with the family planning centre without telling him but in the end the guilt got the better of me. That and I couldn't bear the thought of wasting the 8 weeks I'd already somehow manage to survive (three of them in hospital hooked up to IV).
I've just spent the afternoon curled in bed crying my hormonal eyes out because im too sick to cook my kids anything nice for dinner (or anything at all for that matter). I am 12 weeks and have now lost 13kg. My hair is falling out from malnutrition, my pharmacy bill in $300+ a month. Vomiting 3 times a day is a massive win because it isn't 30, but the nausea has knocked me for six. The constipation makes Zofran an uphill battle, lets see do I want to be endlessly sick or die from unbearable wind cramping today??? Strained chest muscles or burst blood vessels in your eyes from excess vomiting anyone?? I still have no connection with this pregnancy, and probably won't until it moves or something. I guess Im kind of excited since my kids are, but how the hell do you stay connected to it when the thought of being sick blinds you 24/7??
The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that my feelings towards pregnancy reflect in no way my feelings of being a mama. Raising babies is a piece of cake compared to this hell, God could throw down the most unsettled newborn in history and I will survive it with a smile on my face because NOTHING compares to this. This compares to nothing, probably cancer if I was ever unfortunate enough to experience it, but for me this is the absolute worst.
Please don't apologise for feeling selfish. Ever! If your anything like me this is the only place you can be honest about how truly hard it is. My family doesn't understand at all. Hubby tries but it gets a bit much for him sometimes. My well meaning MiL keeps telling me to drink stout. I dont think she understands that water thru a straw is enough of a battle at the best of times. They mean well, but they don't understand!!
Kate-123 sorry to see you needing to pop back in! I had HG with my daughter (which i now know was mild compared to this) which went away at 20 weeks. Unfortunately it came back at 36 weeks for me and the nausea stuck until she was born at 40+3. Are you having heartburn problems at all? I used to find that it would agitate my HG enough to make me chuck, I went through A LOT of Mylanta and Gaviscon in that last month!! Good luck and I hope it settles for you soon
Sorry to anyone I missed, I'm on borrowed time between here and the bathroom!!
Posted 09 May 2013 - 09:12 AM
Thanks Expedit.
I am in slightly a better way today. OB took one look at me and sent me over to the hospital. 3 bags of fluid, IV Zofran and 2 stemetil injections later I am home (and not vomiting for the time being).
I think I missed the dehydration window - didn't realise how bad it was and then ended up unknowingly in the dehydration cycle.
I too could have written your above post Expedit. Everything.
Thanks for the support. I hope everyone is feeling better (well, you know - at least a bit!) soon.
Kate - I have heard lots of stories about HG coming back in the last few weeks. I also heard indigestion can exacerbate it, so maybe some antacids would help? Hope you feel better soon.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 09:27 AM
Oh girls, I am so sorry to hear that you are having such a rough time. I can still clearly remember the depths of despair at the worst times, and just wanting to die or have it end whatever it took. I was sobbing to a midwife when I was last hospitalised to make it end and I was so lucky, she and another 2 of them had all had HG and got where I was coming from. But it does get better, just hang in there. I know seeing the light at the end is near impossible when you're this sick, but I used to repeat to myself "one more day down, one more day I never have to go through this again" and it was a good mantra! Needless to say we will NOT be having another baby unless they make surrogacy legal here! I can never do it again.
I had a break from I think 27-28 weeks this time, and since 34 weeks its been occasional days when needing meds, but they haven't worked fantastically. The heartburn definitely makes it worse and the last 2 days the acid burps have started the vomiting again. But I am booked for my csection on the 28th so I know I am finally on the countdown to feeling better!
Hang in there, I know it's horrible and I am sending you all huge hugs and feeling better vibes xxxxx

Hedge funds gained 2.41% in March according to the Barclay Hedge Fund Index, which is up 0.82% year-to-date.
"After an 8% sell-off in early March, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index bounced back to gain 17% from March 9 to March 31, its largest 3-week rally since 1987," Sol Waksman, founder and president of BarclayHedge, said.
Overall, 15 of Barclay's 18 strategy indices gained ground in March. Emerging markets jumped 4.74%, equity long-bias gained 3.51%, technology rose 3.20%, Pacific Rim equities gained 2.65%, healthcare and biotechnology rose 2.36% and convertible arbitrage was up 2.25%.
"Emerging market funds did exceptionally well in March, driven by double-digit returns in the equity markets in Brazil, Russia, India and China," Waksman said. "With the sudden upturn in equity markets, equity long-bias had its strongest one-month performance since gaining 4.72% in January of 2006."
The Barclay Fund of Funds Index gained 0.23% in March, and is up 0.61% in 2009.

Another day for folks along the Gulf Coast to deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina as much of New Orleans appears to be underwater and Biloxi appears to be lost.
The American Red Cross has thousands of volunteers mobilized to help victims of Hurricane Katrina.
This is the largest single mobilization that the American Red Cross has done for any single natural disaster. Hundreds of people are being plucked from the roofs of their homes by the coast guard, and are being taken to higher ground. An estimated 10,000 people have been holed up in the damaged Louisiana Superdome since the storm passed through on Monday. Here's one man who tells why he waited the storm out.
"I work for the sheriff in 'Orleans Parish, and I was afraid if the water wasn't high, I'd have to go to work. We decided to ride it out, and it was a bad mistake," said a resident of New Orleans.
Many are thinking just like that man, never to wait out a storm again.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., and VALAIS, Switzerland, Nov. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Lantibio, Inc. and TRB Chemedica announced today the signing of a licensing agreement with a subsidiary of Alcon, Inc. (NYSE: ACL) for the US development, marketing, and manufacture of a Dry Eye Syndrome product. The product consists of a TRB patented formulation containing sodium hyaluronate and is currently being studied in the US under an IND by a subsidiary of Lantibio. An ongoing multi-center Phase III pivotal study is being conducted under the FDA's Special Protocol Assessment program. Lantibio expects to file an NDA in 2008 for the product as a treatment for Dry Eye Syndrome.
In Dry Eye Syndrome, it is hypothesized that the product, administered via ocular instillation will hydrate the surface of the eye preventing dryness and long-term ocular injury. Sodium hyaluronate is a known natural molecule with viscoelastic properties that in preparation with specific ions and chelators, lubricates the eye and hydrates the ocular surface.
Under the terms of the agreement, Lantibio will conduct the development program and filing of the NDA, while Alcon will assume responsibility for subsequent marketing, sales and manufacturing for the US market. Terms of the agreement include up-front and development milestone payments, as well as royalties to be paid to Lantibio and TRB by Alcon on sales of the approved product.
"We believe this product will bring significant relief to patients with
Dry Eye Syndrome and look forward to completing our clinical study and to
filing an NDA with the FDA for approval in the US," said Andrew
Schiermeier, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Lantibio, Inc. "We are
delighted by this agreement, and could not hope fo

It's getting chilly outside and I am
craving warm and spicy foods and
there isn't any queso like this queso!
The secret is all in the
Frank's Buffalo Sauce,
one of those sauces that my kids
and their kids have become addicted to.
I keep a supply of it in the pantry so
we don't ever run out.
I first had this fantastic queso this summer
at our neighborhood Walk and Talk on
Sunday evenings where everyone gets out
for a walk and visits and we stop at 3 houses
where they serve refreshments.
My friends Sue Ellen served this and
I couldn't walk away from her crockpot!
She had created this fantastic variation
of queso that I know you are going to
love. It isn't hot, just savory.
We made it several times during
the summer and are having it again
now when it is freezing outside - this
is a year round recipe!
And it goes together in minutes
with things you can always have
on hand if you need to throw together
a fast appetizer or meal.
You can serve it straight out
of the pan or crockpot, but I
decided to serve mine up in these
fun mini cast iron frying pans that I
got at Costco last Christmas season.
I sure hope they are going to have them
again. They came four to a package and
have been the perfect size for individual
Kicked Up Queso Recipe
1 lb. ground beef
1 medium onion
2 cans Rotel tomatoes (mild)
1 small can chopped green chilis
2 lb. Velveeta cheese, cubed
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/3 C. Franks Red Hot Wings Buffalo Sauce
(don't get the hot one, get the medium one)
Chopped tomatoes and cilantro for garnish
Additional Buffalo Sauce if desired
In a large dutch oven pan brown the
ground beef and onion. Drain. Add the
Rotel tomatoes and the chilis. Stir in the
cubed Velveeta and heat on medium until
the cheese is melted. Add the beans and
Buffalo sauce and heat through.
Serve garnished with chopped tomatoes
and cilantro and a splash of additional
Buffalo sauce. Use tortilla chips as dippers.
This makes a large batch to serve a crowd
but it tastes great as leftovers too.
Dip in and enjoy some with me!
It is queso that is kicked up with
flavor from Buffalo sauce and I
think you will love this. I haven't served
it yet without someone asking for the recipe.
I will be posting this with

Fifth Harmony talks 2013 jams, a Christmas album: Video
How cute are Fifth Harmony? So very cute. I caught up with "The X Factor" fivesome on the red carpet at the American Music Awards earlier this week, fresh off of singing "Better Together" in the AMAs pre-show.
Each took time out to say what their No. 1 jam of 2013 would be, with Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors," HAIM's "If I Could Change Your Mind," a Rihanna single and more.
Considering it was cold (at least for L.A.), I also asked if they'd be into ever recording a Christmas album. And just guess their answer.
Get your coffee ready, 'cause here's some sugar. Check out the vid. Fifth Harmony's EP "Better Together" was released in October.
Anton Yelchin talks 'Star Trek,' 'Burying the Ex,' 'Terminator' and astronaut work
The long-form music video/short film for Broken Bells' "After the Disco" wielded a lot of star power, including fun sci-fi work from Jacob Gentry, Kate Mara in a pink uniform and the gifted melancholy of Anton Yelchin.
Sad Sailors Your Mouth: The National sings the 'Bob's Burgers' Thanksgiving song
If you spent the week singing the words "Sailors in your mouth" like I did, then you may be pleased to know there is a proper indie rock version of the new cult classic.
The "Bob's Burger's" newest Thanksgiving episode yielded another inspired Linda moment, as she and sister Gayle plunged deep into the topic of gravy for a new turkey day anthem. Brooklyn rockers The National showed back up for the holiday this year, in the animated form of your favorite pan-made condiment, for the "Bob's Buskers" series, only to slide down Bob's gullet.
R. Kelly, Kendrick Lamar answer 'What's your 2013 jam?' on the spot
Don't want you to count 'em, but just note: some artists think their own jam is the jam of 2013. And why shouldn't they?
HitFix caught up with a number of stars on the red carpet at the American Music Awards, including Akon, Fifth Harmony, Nelly, Kendrick Lamar, 2 Chainz, R. Kelly and Shemar Moore (?!) and asked, "What's your No. 1 song this year?"
Kells said "Do What You Want With My Body," his jam with Lady Gaga, Lamar went with his "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe." And Shemar Moore? He's a Drake man.
Watch our quick-hitting video from the AMAs above and answer for yourself: what's your 2013 jam?
Jacob Gentry, Anton Yelchin talk Broken Bells space adventure
By now you may have seen Part 1 and Part 2 of music crew Broken Bells' mini-film "After the Disco." What you may not know is what Bob Fosse has to do with any of it.
Helmed by Jacob Gentry ("The Signal") and starring Kate Mara and Anton Yelchin, this sentimental space journey is both retro-cool and futuristic, a look the director intended with the eye-popping space-scapes against throwback colors schemes and costumes.
"Science fiction is my favorite genre," Gentry said in our interview, an it shows. His first go with Broken Bells -- which consists of James Mercer of the Shins and producer/songwriter Danger Mouse -- was for 2010 music vid "The Ghost Inside," featuring Christina Hendricks literally selling pieces of herself to enjoy an intergalactic utopia straight from of a 1940's style Hollywood postcard.
The love story for "After the Disco" had Yelchin's character, boring and lifeless, finding his way into the arms of space cadet Mara, then lulled into the belly of a ship and a dance party that goes on forever. Sweet living, no? Tough luck, sweethearts, the scene goes sour. Read a full Q&A with Kate Mara on the video and more here.
"I wanted to take the deign elements of 'Logan's Run' and give it a melancholy," Gentry continues, mentioning that Broken Bells' "bold pop music references" suited the scope of a small story in a big universe. Gentry and Danger Mouse (aka Brian Burton) have known each other since college and each being a fan of each others' work appears to have helped with the shorthand and creative vision it takes to shoot a story like this in only two days.
Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" performance at the 2013 American Music Awards tended toward the minimal, but not because of what she wasn't wearing this time.
The young star donned a cat-themed two-piece and sang a straight-forward rendition of the "Bangerz" hit, and behind her was a giant kitten lip-syncing the song while being projected into space.
Seriously. That's it. Why, LOLCAT? In the words of Childish Gambino: Because the internet.
Cyrus showed no wink in her eye, and actually appeared quite emotional toward the end of the powerful tear-jerker, while the semi-static image of a cat peered thousands of yards into our soul. For such a massive troll, we even forgive her for missing a beat.
Kate Mara on 'House of Cards' Season 2: 'Never a boring moment'
In our interview this week, Kate Mara described the second season of "House of Cards" and her character in it, Zoe Barnes, as never having a dull moment. The same can probably be said of her professional life right now, as she promotes the two-part mini film "After the Disco" for Broken Bells, currently shoots "Captive" in Mexico City with David Oyelowo and will soon see the result of her turn in "Transcendence" with Johnny Depp. Mara also said that "House of Cards" finished shooting about a month ago, and the second season with drop – all at once, again – "relatively soon."
Watch Part One of Broken Bells' "After the Disco" here. Watch Part Two below.
The 20 best movie soundtracks of all time
Two major soundtrack releases -- last week's "Inside Llewyn Davis" and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" -- take two different tacks in regards to their tracks.
Like "O Brother, Where Art Thou?", the Coen Brothers' latest film integrates its songs firmly into the story, shy of a musical, but without meaning if not for its songs. Justin Timberlake, the film's star Oscar Isaac, Marcus Mumford and more topline the traditionals and golden Greenwich-era folk music.
"Catching Fire" is the latest in a string of major Hollywood flicks that assembled several previously unreleased songs from top-line artists like Coldplay, Ellie Goulding and Christina Aguilera, some of whom composed and recorded specifically for the movie.
Thinking about high profile releases like these, HitFix staffers put our heads together to rank some of the best film soundtrack releases we could think of. There were fierce defenses of sole votes, and no shortage of those who claimed they wore their record/tape/CD down to ashes. It was also no surprise there were great mixes for terrible movies -- we'll leave it to you to determine which those are.
But for every "Shaft," "Judgement Night," "The Crow," "Menace II Society," "Stealing Beauty," "American Graffiti" and "Twilight" film soundtrack we couldn't include in the Top 20, there were no-brainer classics like "Purple Rain," "Pulp Fiction" and "Pretty in Pink" to keep the conversation calm.
Check out our ranked list of the 20 Best Soundtracks Of All Time below, and rank 5 of your own, too. And don't fuss too bad, we'll do a Best Soundtrack Score some other time, you "There Will Be Blood" fans.

text: According to the website TechnoBuffalo, some recent posts via Twitter may have revealed more specs for the iPhone 6, which most people are expecting to arrive in September or October. The posts come from Sonny Dickson, who was the first to post bona fide leaked photos of the iPhone 5s and 5c last year. He says the forthcoming phone will be .22 inches thick, compared to .3 inches for the iPhone 5s. That's a significant difference. In addition, he says the phone will have an "Ultra Retina" display, at 389 pixels per inch compared to the current 326 for the iPhone 5s. That's full HD resolution. The A8 processor will be clocked at 2.6ghz, meaning that the iPhone 6 will see a speed bump even beyond that of the speedy 64-bit A7 processor in Apple's latest iOS devices.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ The Kansas House has given first-round approval to a bill that would bring the state into a compact with other states hoping to become exempt from the federal health care overhaul.
The House's voice vote Friday advanced the measure to another that is expected Monday. That final action will determine whether the bill goes to the Senate.
The measure also would let participating states remove themselves from other federal health regulations if Congress consents.
Many Republican lawmakers strongly oppose the federal health care law championed by Democratic President Barack Obama and see it as intrusive and burdensome.
Critics call the measure symbolic and say Congress wouldn't approve such a compact.
A Texas-based group is pushing the compact and says eight other states have enacted similar laws, including Missouri.

Tensions between BET's "106 & Park" co-host Terrence J and rapper Webbie appear to be getting more tense as the Louisiana rapper has now issued a threat of violence.
A week after getting banned from "106 & Park" for unknown reasons, Webbie has gone at Terrence.
"Not holding nmo beef with @TerrenceJ he a wanna be a** n*gga," he tweeted over the weekend. "Ima just simply beat him up when I catch him."
"RT @Balla_T: Webbie On Terrence J!! Real Savage Sh*t @OfficialWebbie http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php?v=wshh47H3UxZsjRI27m1F via @worldstar (Webbie's Twitter)
Webbie also released a video fully addressing the co-host.
"How can you tell me I'm not, I 'am' BET," Webbie said in a video. "You looking at BET right now. So Terrence, I'm sorry your b*tch [co-host Rocsi] wanted me to put that d*ck on her. Get your h*e, man. Get your f*cking h*e man. Get your h*e man." (Original Hollywood Films)
Terrence made headlines last week after publicly banning Webbie from "106 & Park."
"We would not like to thank Lil Webbie who is now banned from coming on the show. We will not be seeing him on '106 & Park' anymore," Terrence said following the show's Freestyle Friday segment. ("106 & Park")
Webbie appeared on the daily weekday show as a guest judge.
"All the way turnt up" is how Baton Rouge rapper Webbie describes his current disposition. The unabashed rhyme slinger has been off the rap grid of late, but he's reemerged to promote the release of his upcoming album, Savage Life 3.
