text: Sustainable Development Policy on Active Travel Date of Production = January 2010 Date of review = January 2011 -1 N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc Policy Statement 'The Trust recognises that travel and transport are determinants of health and aims, with the cooperation of staff partners and service providers, to actively promote and improve the health and wellbeing of the workforce and community though making available and encouraging the use of greener travel options' N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 1 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc 1. Rationale This document sets out why an active travel policy is required, how measures will be identified, implemented and monitored and what action is required by sites, managers and staff. This policy is required to promote a shift from sedentary to active travel. This policy should ensure that we adopt practices that reduce single occupancy car use and promote greener travelling options in order to improve health and well being by increasing physical activity. This policy will; Enable travel measures to be implemented effectively across NHS Stoke on Trent Ensure that all sites are equally aware of green travelling options and implementation is supported Deliver and support the transport and travel elements of the Strategic Services Development Plan (SSDP) Lay down the basis for partnership working on transport and travel between the Trust sites, and with external organisations (Neighbouring employers such as University Hospital North Staffordshire, Combined Healthcare Trust, NHS North Staffordshire, NHS West Midlands, Stoke‐on‐ Trent City Council, Private sector providers and other partners). 2. Purpose and Coverage A travel plan sets out how to combat over‐dependency on cars by supporting all the possible alternatives to people travelling in cars on their own. By reducing car miles this policy can not only benefit the environment but can produce financial benefits and productivity improvements saving both NHS Stoke on Trent and individual staff members money and time. This policy concentrates on improving existing travel choices whilst giving incentives to use more sustainable travel and disincentives to car use by ensuring there are realistic alternatives available. It is important that travel proposals offer staff realistic alternative options as people's ability to change their travel will vary. This policy covers corporate actions to be taken by NHS Stoke on Trent and site specific actions for the Hospitals, Primary Care and Health Centres for which we are responsible. It covers staff (whether employees of NHS Stoke on Trent or not) and people travelling to sites in all Trust owned or leased premises. In addition to this overarching policy, each site will have site specific tailored action plans that will state how this agenda is being met at that location. This document suggests a framework to developing, implementing and monitoring a travel plan to encourage travel by alternative methods other than the car. N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 2 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc This policy compliments the wider agenda of sustainable development and is part of a wider corporate Sustainable Development Management Plan. This can be found on our website. 3. Requirements As part of the Sustainable Development Management Plan NHS Stoke on Trent is required to have a Board approved active travel plan. All planning applications with significant transport implications require a travel plan. The Local Authority are stipulating implementation of a travel plan as a legal condition of giving planning permission and so this travel policy assists planning applications for a new site or new accommodation on current sites. This fits with NHS Stoke on Trent's commitments to encourage active travel and to improve accessibility to services. The adoption of a Travel plan at new sites meets Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) sustainable building requirements. 4. National Policy and Context Climate change is an unavoidable and pressing issue and is at the heart of corporate social responsibility. Small changes by each of us can make big changes to all. Measures to reduce excessive car use are vital for any organisation and leading by example and demonstrating leadership is especially important for the NHS. The NHS is the largest public sector contributor to climate change. The NHS carbon footprint is 18 million tonnes per year of CO2 and travel makes up 18% of this. On a national level all NHS trusts are required to develop travel plans and a number of policy instruments enforce this requirement. Key Policy Drivers Key policy drivers for active travel are listed here. These can be found in more detail in the Sustainable Development Management Plan. Saving Carbon, Improving health, NHS Carbon Reduction Strategy for England (January 2009) Climate Change Act (2008), Department of Energy and Climate change Available at http://www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/legislation/cc_act_08/cc_act_08. aspx Sustaining a Health Future, taking action on climate change. Special focus on the NHS. UK Faculty of Public Health 2009. NICE guidance (reference PH8) – Public Health Guidance on the Promotion and creation of physical environments that support increased levels of physical activity, Jan 2008, available http://www.nice.org.uk/Guidance/PH8 N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 3 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc NICE guidance (reference PH13) – Public Health Guidance on Promoting Physical Activity and the Workplace, May 2008 (available online http://www.nice.org.uk/Guidance/PH13 ) Take Action on Active Travel, 2008. Bristol, SUSTRANS and the Association of Directors of Public Health. (available online at www.adph.org.uk) NHS Sustainable Development Strategy (October 2008) Good Corporate Citizenship (GCC) online assessment model Other key areas that are supported by the sustainable development agenda are World Class Commissioning, Key Lines of Enquiry (KLoE) especially 3.1 Use of Resources, and the WHO Healthy Cities Phase 5. Local frameworks including Local Area Agreements (NI 186), Local Strategic Partnerships, and Comprehensive Area Assessments which all have target areas driven by sustainable development and travel. 5. The Case for Developing Travel Plans a. Health By reducing the reliance on private car journeys and making greener travelling options such as walking, cycling and using public transport viable alternatives to the car we can promote more physically active transport. There are key links between active travel and those looking at services around Obesity, decreasing Heart Disease and Stroke, Cancer, Depression and Mental Illness, Osteoporosis and falls in later life. Also people who are more active are generally healthier and take less sick leave. Nationally the NHS generates around 5% of all journeys in the UK. The NHS therefore is a key travel generator and has the opportunity to influence staff, visitors and patients. At present staff, patients and visitors to the NHS travel over 25 billion km a year and over 80% of this is by car. Annually, 3,500 people are killed, 34,000 seriously injured and 250,000 injured on the roads in Britain and pollution related admissions are estimated to cost the NHS between £17 – 60 million each year. b. Environmental Transport is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions and commuter and business travel make up 40% of miles driven by car. Travel plans can reduce traffic most during the key periods of rush hour peaks because the numbers of people driving to work is cut. We all experience the environmental degradation that can be caused by traffic. c. Corporate More active journeys give opportunities for people to build exercise into daily life and can be less stressful than car journeys. As parking on sites is limited, less people using cars every day should ensure there is parking for those with most need to access a vehicle. Less demand for parking means money can be saved on the cost of N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 4 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc providing and maintaining car parking spaces. The problems caused by traffic congestion on and around sites can be reduced. More green travel options can cut mileage claims and other business travel costs. Having green travel options will improve our image with the public and organisations across the City. 6. Partnerships and networks NHS Stoke on Trent will ensure this agenda is more effective by working as part of local and regional frameworks. The Local Authority employs an officer with responsibility for travel plans who can offer practical advice and information. There are grants available to assist with travel plan measures and the City Council are already operating a car share database. We will consolidate partnership working across the city and make best use of local and regional frameworks to ensure that we are part of a regional network for sustainable development. This partnership will ensure we are involved in a broad consistent approach and an action plan across the region to tackle this agenda. 7. Baseline Position The Trust has already demonstrated a commitment to this agenda through a range of initiatives. The examples below show that foundations are in place to be built upon in order to successfully deliver the encouragement of active travelling throughout the organisation. Work‐life balance (Employment Act 2002), whereby peak period travel and the amount of travel can be reduced through flexible working practices such as home working and telephone conferencing NHS Stoke on Trent reimburses staff at a nominal level for car sharing on business related car journeys The NHS Local Procurement Hub, where possible, uses local suppliers, Consideration of travel in LIFT agreements and PFI arrangements which will impact upon reducing congestion and pollution levels and will strengthen the local community Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) sustainable buildings requirements and transport assessments for new sites Engagement with the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) to support health improvement through the promotion of green travel at a strategic level and contributing to transport and healthy urban planning throughout the City Development of Health Impact Assessments which consider health, transport and access issues N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 5 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc A lease car scheme that is based on emissions A Walk this Way scheme which is a health and wellness programme free to all staff of NHS Stoke on Trent with the aim of helping people to walk more each day Teleconferencing as an alternative to travelling to meetings with Smartboards in meeting rooms, encouraging people to reduce the amount of unnecessary meetings and working at home options such as RAS tokens 8. NHS Stoke on Trent Commitments As a major employer NHS Stoke on Trent has a responsibility to be a good corporate citizen and be taking a lead on active travel. The commitments detailed in this policy will be measured routinely and monitored and sites should review and update their travel plans regularly. Baseline data will be gathered to ensure that change can be measured. NHS Stoke on Trent will actively promote green travel. NHS Stoke on Trent will: 1) Lead by example Targets Increase media coverage on sustainable development by 50% Ensure our staff and our key stakeholders are aware of our travel plans Ensure that 50% of our sites have their own travel action plans by 2011 Actions Generate greater positive media coverage on travel specifically and sustainable development more widely Increase awareness of our travel plans both within the organisation and with partners Develop tailored travel action plans relevant to all sites and regularly update these Organise sustainable travel awareness campaigns in conjunction with partners 2) Reduce unnecessary travel Targets Reduce the amount of meetings where travel is needed by 10% Reduce single car usage for business mileage by 10% Actions Enable more remote and home working as an option for staff Promote the national car share scheme and database Develop initiatives to reduce car usage for business mileage 3) Encourage the use of more sustainable modes of transport Targets N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 6 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc 100% of our sites will have a named Transport Planning Co‐ordinator by end 2010 Actions Implement options to encourage other modes of transport instead of the car, making other modes more viable Develop policies on payment for business mileage for cycles and walking Compare car mileage against public transport tickets and cycle mileage claims, e.g. travel allowances that incentivise the use of low carbon vehicles with differentiated rates where the maximum rates are paid for low carbon options such as cycling and walking Carry out regular checks on bike use and promote a cycle to work scheme 4) Reduce single occupancy car use to and from sites Targets Increase the numbers of people registered with the car share database by 100% Actions Review and implement the options available to incentivise people to reduce their car use, for example public transport initiatives, pool car and pool bikes, try before you buy electric bikes, free bus passes, staff buses, walking buses, cycle to work scheme. Review recruitment, employment practices and working practices 5) Reduce the proportion of staff and visitors parking at sites Targets Increase the numbers of people cycling to work Increase the numbers of people walking to meetings by 50% Through providing one‐stop services and more services closer to home, reduce the distances people travel to use health services Introduce car parking charges at head office sites Actions For example salary sacrifice options such as annual transport passes repaid through payroll, discount tickets deal with public transport operators, use of car share and cycle to work schemes Work with Local Authority to improve public transport access to sites 6) Improve facilities and access to facilities Targets Ensure 100% of new buildings meet BREEAM excellence Actions Make use of the travel grants available from the City Council for items such as cycle storage, purchase of pool bike / moped and shower / changing facilities Monitor the installation of facilities in light of BREEAM and Good Corporate Citizenship requirements N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 7 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc 9. Site Specific Commitments All sites where NHS Stoke On Trent employees are based and where we provide services will undertake and promote active travel measures. This document acts as the point of reference for all trust owned sites regardless of their size and will be used to guide development and implementation of measures and to meet the requirements of planning. All sites should; have access to this policy document, display a statement of commitment and promotion of active travel on notice boards have cycling maps and public transport timetables available All sites will have designated representatives, called Travel Plan Coordinators, who will coordinate the site action plan, monitor progress plus raise awareness of this agenda. All NHS Stoke on Trent owned sites will be expected to have a Travel Action Plan (Appendix One). These sites can be defined as those where NHS Stoke on Trent employees are based and where we provide services. Larger sites will be required to have a travel action plan first (within 6 months). Larger sites (with many employees based on site) are termed Type One Sites and are identified as Headquarters and Community Hospitals: Haywood Hospital Herbert Minton Building / London House (Floor Four) Heron House Longton Cottage Hospital Type 2 Sites (with fewer employees based on site) will have a Travel Action Plan within 12 months*. These sites are Health centres and primary care centres: Abbey Hulton Health Centre Blurton Health Centre Bentilee Health Centre Fenton Health Centre Hanford Health Centre Hanley Health Centre Longton Health Centre Lucie Wedgewood Health Centre, Burslem Meir Health Centre Piccadilly Centre, Hanley Packmoor Medical Centre Shelton Primary Care Centre Smallthorne Health Centre N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 8 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc Stoke Health Centre Tunstall Health Centre Trent Vale Health Centre * It is noted that some sites will be redeveloped in line with our Strategic Services Development Plan. A Template of a suggested action plan for sites to use is given in Appendix One. This can be tailored and rewritten as required to meet the needs of each site but should cover focused objectives, lead contact and review date. 10. Enablers to achieve change Resources will need to be allocated to support implementation of the travel policy. Senior management support will be important to ensure that the necessary resources are allocated to the travel plan. Managers should lead the way by travelling by sustainable means whenever they can. Managers will also have a role to play in supporting and enabling staff to engage in greener travelling options, for instance allowing time to walk to meetings. 11. Monitoring and links Progress against this policy will be monitored by the Sustainable Development Management Group. The areas monitored will be: Progress of the travel policy Annual review of the Travel policy Progress on site specific Action Plans Implementing schemes that will encourage sustainability Act as a point of reference for staff who want information on green travel The Active Travel Policy will be reviewed annually by the Sustainable Development Management Group. Operational lead Michelle Russell, Development Manager, Office of the Chief Executive, Fourth Floor London House, Stoke On Trent, Staffordshire, ST4 1NF. firstname.lastname@example.com Telephone: 01782 401050 Executive lead is the Assistant Chief Executive, Dawn Wickham. Board Champion is Chris Dawes, Chairman. This Policy was written by Michelle Russell and the Sustainable Development Management Group, January 2010 and will be reviewed in January 2011. It links directly to the Sustainable Development Management Plan and the Strategic Service Development Plan. N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 9 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc Action Plan for [site] [year] Introduction Name and details of key contact and site. Summary This section should refer to any other relevant documents that exist then briefly cover the main reasons for developing this action plan, i.e. the main objectives and targets and the most significant measures to be introduced. Later versions of this travel plan should include a summary of progress towards achieving targets. Other items may be any current issues and problems, any achievements so far or any details on current travel patterns. Executive policy statement 'The Trust recognises that travel and transport are determinants of health and aims, with the cooperation of staff partners and service providers, to actively promote and improve the health and wellbeing of the workforce and community though making available and encouraging the use of greener travel options' Action Plan This section should cover objectives of this action plan and what implementing the plan is expected to achieve. Any objectives set should be achievable and directly relevant to your own workplace. An example general overall objective could be: To encourage the use of safe and sustainable transport for travel to and from work and within work time. Examples of more narrowly focused objectives could be: to improve staff fitness levels through encouraging the use of more active forms of transport to reduce car use by 10% to increase walking by 10% to have more people registered on a Car Share scheme to increase the number of people cycling to the site to reduce congestion and parking issues around the office to reduce the number of single occupancy car journeys by staff to the site. These should have quantifiable targets whenever possible.

Once targets have been identified, success in meeting these targets must be measured so progress can be measured. Indicators may include a staff survey, recording of take up rates of schemes, walks or the number of lockers in use. Each site will be required to review their action plans annually and once formulated a copy of this action plan should be sent to; Development Manager, Michelle Russell, Office of the Chief Executive, London House Fourth Floor Stoke On Trent ST4 1NF email@example.com Telephone; 01782 401050 N:\CHIEF_EXECUTIVES_OFFICE\Assistant_Chief_Executive\Green 11 Travel\Transport and Green Travel Policy Final Version with targets.doc

Photos and Description of this 2 bedroom holiday apartment in Centro Storico (Old Rome)
The apartment is in the central district of "Appio", near Rome's historical center (3-4 stops by underground train). The metro station for is only a short distance away (3 minutes on foot). The apartment is very cosy with every comfort catered for. In its 65 square meters it can sleep up to 5-6 people. There is an entrance hall, a kitchen-diner, a large double bedroom , a living room, a bathroom with shower and a balcony. In the bedroom, as well as the double bed, there is a third single bed which is always available and if necessary a fourth bed can be pulled out. In the living room there is a sofa ( becomes a double bed). The apartment is very well cared for in terms of furnishings and cleanliness which we consider very important. Electrical appliances include: oven, washing machine, hair dryer , Wifi, TV and air conditioners in the bedroom and in the living room. Parquet floor everywhere, except the bathroom. Very close to the apartment (3 minutes on foot) there are the metro stops "Colli Albani" or "Furio Camillo" both of which offer access to the linea A and allows one to connect rapidly with the rest of the centre of Rome, so allowing you to fully experience and live Rome. The metro links the Appio district with the rest of the centre of Rome quickly, allowing one to easily reach the main touristic places of interests, from San Giovanni in Laterano to S.an Pietro (Vaticano), from the Colosseo to the Circo Massimo, from Spanish Steps to Trevi's Fountain and Villa Borghese. The price of the planning (€ 490) is for stays of 2 people for 7 days/nights.
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
- wheelchair inaccessible
Why Fernando chose Centro Storico (Old Rome)
When our children were young, Me and my husband decided to buy an apartment in the neighborhood 'Appio San Giovanni' because it is central and well served by the main metro line (line A). We did not imagine at this point that this apartment will host other families.
We decided to renovate and refurnish it well to welcome people who chose to stay in Rome in a warm and comfortable environment.
Today, our efforts are rewarded with all these entirely positive comments that we find in our listing on the site of "Homelidays."
We are confident you will be satisfied with our apartment too.
Rome will do the rest. Our city is a unique place. Indeed, every street, every church and every site shows that the Eternal City is an open air museum. Rome is not only for Romans, it is part of the World Heritage.
Good Roman Holiday.
Angela Fernando and our children Davide, Chiara and Francesco.

|Related: BEN AND KATE, FOX, Interview
Jane Seymour is best known for her long running TV series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. She has earned an Emmy Award, two Golden Globe Awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The actress recently guest starred as BJ's mother, Wendy in the FOX freshman comedy BEN AND KATE. She spoke by phone about the experience and shared what's on tap for her busy career.
Could you talk about your character, 'Wendy' which you played on BEN AND KATE?
Wendy is very competitive with her daughter BJ and she's always putting her daughter down. I mean she kind of points out things about BJ, like the fact that she has big shoulders and looks like a statue and, of course, BJ comes right back at her and refers to her mother as a "cat." BJ sort of thinks her mother looks terrible and basically, her mother doesn't. Her mother tries to outdo her daughter at every possible occasion."
Was there anyone in particular that you used as inspiration for 'Wendy?'
No. Reading the script and reading the characters that they played, I just thought she was a wonderfully inappropriate mother really. There's nothing remotely motherly about her and she's a bit of a piranha really. I mean she'll do whatever Suits here. She's not terribly concerned about "BJ" at all really. She'll go with whatever happens. She's pretending to be a mother. She's acting the role.
There's quite a bit of improvisation on the Ben and Kate set. Can you talk about what that experience was like for you?
I love improv, but I think what's great about the show is that it's so well written to begin with that when you improv, you're improv'ing on what they already have going there. We did a bit of improv, quite a bit, but those particular scenes were very well scripted.
Do you enjoy doing comedy?
I love doing comedy; absolutely love it. After Wedding Crashers, people suddenly realized that it's something I could do. I don't suppose there are that many people who do straight stuff and comedy, but I've always loved doing comedy. I think the older I get, the more chances I'm being given to play more character-kind of characters.
Was there anything you learned about doing comedy or about comedic timing from your time on the show?
No, I've done quite a lot of comedy actually. I think with comedy, it's got to be real. If it doesn't come from a real place then it really isn't funny, doesn't work. So, there has to be a reality to whatever it is you're doing and it has to make sense to your character. So, even if it is the most bizarre behavior on the planet, it's got to be completely normal to the person, to the character that's playing it.
I was wondering if you think you'll be back to Franklin & Bash again next summer.
Funny you should say that. I just got a text just the other day, less than a week ago from the creator of the show who told me he was pitching a story with me coming back. So, I'm going to be a mother of many people.
When you pick roles is there anything in the back of your mind that you're hoping people will learn from the roles that you take?
Just that I really enjoy doing comedy and that I have quite a range of different kinds of characters that I can play. Especially recently, I've got a lot of movies coming out, some of which you haven't seen yet, in which I play with a short blonde wig and I look like a completely different person. I'm really playing a lot of different characters really. I guess what I'm showing is that I don't just play myself. I play a lot of different people. That's called "acting," I think.

Where Ai Ai draws strength amid controversy
MANILA, Philippines -- In the days following her emotional confession of her separation from her husband, Ai Ai delas Alas received an outpouring of support from her family, friends and colleagues.
The 48-year-old actress said she continues to draw strength from loved ones who surround her, especially "[galing] sa mga anak ko at sa Diyos."
Delas Alas has two children with former husband, singer-actor Miguel Vera. She also has another son, Sancho, from a previous relationship.
In a series of posts on image-sharing service Instagram, delas Alas also shared photos of her with close friends and a religious support group, citing them as helpful to her moving on from her separation.
Last Sunday, an emotional delas Alas admitted in a taped interview on "The Buzz" that she and Salang, her husband of one month, broke up after he allegedly physically abused her.
Among the personalities who have expressed support for delas Alas following her confession are President Benigno Aquino III, ABS-CBN president and chief executive officer Charo Santos-Concio, co-stars Vice Ganda, Kris Aquino, Marian Rivera, and actress Judy Ann Santos.

Respond to Review of Stereo
by arthursgrub
Review: Stereo has been on the go for a few years now. It's part of the related veggie bars around Glasgow and carries a reasonably varied menu. It's a more downmarket venue and is reasonably priced. Has some deals such as 5 taps for a tenner on mondays. A good selection of beers (stocks Williams bottled beers too) and a nice vibe. Attracts a more leftfield crowd and is very handily placed bang in the city centre 100 yards from Central Station in renfield lane. (there's alaos the old hairdressers pub facing stereo, worth a visit). There's a gig and club situated downstairs with something on most nights of the week. The main downside is that the seating is of the hard uncomfortable type!!

... Maine! We wandered around for almost an hour before almost collapsing from low blood sugar levels. It was definitely lunch time. We wandered the streets of Freeport until we found Isabella's Sticky Buns Cafe & Bakery (http://www.yelp.com/biz/isabellas-stic ky-buns-cafe-and-bakery-freeport). The food was surprisingly satisfying (though at that moment, I think just about anything edible would have tasted like cake). Back on the road, we had about a 20 minute drive to ...

I just completed my first every extract boil, cool and yeast is pitched and lid is on plastic fermenting bucket. I have a bubble airlock, sanitized with a little water in it as a buffer. I've come to my first step where I'm confused (shocked I made it this far without confusion, BTW): my airlock came with a little plastic. Should I use it during fermentation? I can't decide.
Thanks for the help.
A little plastic what?
plastic lid?
Yes, it's vented.
"The only thing wrong with doing nothing is you never know when you're finished"
Sure, pop it on there. It'll keep thirsty critters out of your airlock fluid.
Another tip for airlocks: You can use cheap vodka instead of water. Then if any gets in your beer, there's no worry of infection (unlikely though it may be in any case).
Thanks for the help. Looking forward to tasting my Extra Pale Ale.

I have copious amts. of CM every month and test my urine with Ovulation sticks. It says I ovulate every month, just about midway in cycle of 29-31 days. But, I never get pregnant. I have had a fertility work up done by a RE. The first month my FSH was 3.2, second it was up to 21.3. After I reached, 21.3, he told me that my egg reserves were bad.
However, I have read publications from Fertility Specialists that say that is normal. People have a fluctuation of FSH from month to month. Just wondering why we can ovulate, have sex every day in one month and no BFP ??
I told my (now fired RE) that I did not want to do anything invasive or spend a ton of money. All I really wanted was, some clomid or pergonal. All he wants to do is IVF with donor eggs. So, NOPE.

When TV Works Online: Web Series We've Actually Heard Of
by Stephanie Earp, posted Jul 19th 2011 1:00PM
Lisa Kudrow's new comedy 'Web Therapy' debuts this week on Showtime, and if the title didn't tip you off, the show is a 30-minute reworking of a web series Kudrow started in 2008. The simple premise worked beautifully in the miniature format.
Kudrow plays Fiona Wallice, a therapist who thinks 50 minutes is too long for a therapy session, and conducts her mini-sessions via webcam. Of course, like most of Kudrow's characters, Wallice is self-centred, mean, and not all that well-informed. (I don't know why Kudrow insists on creating such unlikeable alter-egos for herself, but that's another column.) The trick will be to see if whatever charm the original held is maintained in a 30-minute format.
I'm going to be totally honest here -- I had never heard of 'Web Therapy' until it got picked up for television. Am I completely out of touch? Was the whole world watching this and nobody mentioned it to me? Or are you just as surprised as I am to hear that Kudrow has been regularly employed -- and winning Webby Awards -- for the last four years?

"I love watching young musicians grow into seasoned players and have had tremendous success with all my students.

Cardiff University and the city's Somali Integration Society have got together to encourage community members to take up higher education study.
Current Cardiff students from diverse local ethnic minority communities were among those hosting an Open Day about the University at Butetown Youth Pavilion. They were on hand to answer questions from around 140 members of various local ethnic minority communities about overcoming the hurdles of getting into university.
University staff also attended to provide advice about studying the variety of courses offered at the University including taking up adult classes and teaching staff were on hand to discuss courses in nursing, psychology and journalism. Staff from the University's Student Advisory Service discussed the practicalities of undergraduate life.
Staff from the University's Human Resources Division were also on hand to provide information on job opportunities within the University.
Professor Terry Threadgold, Head of the University's School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, said: "The aim of the event was to raise aspirations among our local communities and to improve awareness of Cardiff University. We received a large amount of positive feedback, with many people telling us they had been inspired to apply."

Roxbury 9, Margaretville 2
While 13 may have been an unlucky number for the Roxbury Rockets last year, it carries a somewhat different connotation this year.
In an impressive turnaround for the Roxbury softball squad, who went 3-13 last year, the Rockets are 13-2 this season and in possession of their first league title since 2004.
By Julia Green
The Roxbury girls' softball team, which finished last in 2008, completed a stunning turnaround on Monday by beating visiting Downsville, 1-0, to clinch the Delaware Mountain League division title.
The Rockets, 12-2, clinched the title, thanks, in large part, to a strong showing by Roxbury pitcher Heather Davie both in the circle and at the plate. Davie tallied 13 strikeouts and four walks, limiting the visiting Eagles to a mere three hits, and hit what would be the game-winning RBI double in the sixth inning for the Rockets, who committed no errors in the outing.
Margaretville 5, Roxbury 2
The elusive sunlight glinted off the silver barrel of Margaretville slugger Ian Williams' brand-new bat in the bottom of the sixth inning of Tuesday's non-league showdown with the Roxbury Rockets. And the resounding crack as he made contact with Roxbury pitcher David Clark's 0-1 pitch left no doubt that the ball was headed over the outfield fence.
By Julia Green
Margaretville 19, Gilboa 7 (Tuesday)
The Blue Devils dealt a hardy loss to visiting Gilboa last Tuesday, defeating the Wildcats 19-7. The Blue Devils jumped out to an early lead, scoring seven runs in the first inning to Gilboa's one.
"Gilboa did score an unearned run in the first inning – we had an error in the infield – but we came up at the bottom of the first inning and scored seven runs," said Margaretville Head Coach Rick Funck. "Chris Costa led off with a walk, Cody Fronckowiak singled, and Patrick O'Connell hit a triple. We only had three hits, but Patrick had a triple to knock in a couple runs and we scored a couple more that inning on sac flies."
By Julia Green
Roxbury 2, H-T 1 (Tuesday)
Roxbury pitcher Heather Davie had been knocking on the door for quite awhile, and in last Tuesday's home game against Hunter-Tannersville, the door finally opened. Davie, a junior, pitched the first no-hitter of her career, tallying eight strikeouts and four walks in the outing, which the Rockets won by a narrow 2-1 margin.
By Julia Green
Windham 4, Margaretville 9 (Thursday)
"Brian Faulkner pitched a complete game," said Margaretville Head Coach Rick Funck of Faulkner's performance at home on Thursday, when the Blue Devils hosted visiting Windham. Faulkner tallied eight strikeouts and allowed only three hits in the game, which Margaretville won, 9-4. "It was his most solid performance of the year so far," Funck added.
By Julia Green
RCS 15, Stamford (Thursday)
It was another solid showing for the Roxbury Lady Rockets on Thursday, when they posted a 15-0 victory over visiting Stamford to improve their record to 6-1 overall and 4-1 in league competition. Jessica Utsler went 3-for-3 with a triple for Roxbury while pitcher Heather Davie went 2-for-3 with four runs and three RBIs.
The Arc of Delaware County (Delarc) will be holding its Annual Bike-A-Thon this Saturday, May 2, with a rain date of May 9, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with routes in Walton, Delhi and Roxbury. Delarc has announced that it has expanded its Walton Bike-A-Thon Route to include a walking and running component.
Delhi — The annual Big Wheels Golf Tournament, held at the Delhi College Golf Course will take place on Friday, May 8, according to the Big Wheels tournament committee. The event serves as a primary fund-raiser for programs and services which provide assistance to Delaware County senior citizens.
