Chicago Bulls 88, Indiana Pacers 84
Not from a "best first round series ever" standpoint, but from a "this could be a good rivalry going forward" standpoint, this series reminds me of Celtics/Bulls in 2009. Every game is close, one team is established and the other is trying to become that, and — this is the big one — things got rough last night, as the Pacers tried to knock down anyone within five feet of the basket. Fun series, and hopefully a fun rivalry going forward.
Miami Heat 100, Philadelphia 76ers 94
This has to be frustrating for Philly. Much like the Pacers, they keep getting leads but then losing to the better team. For whatever reason — bad shots sometimes, but mostly running in to good defense — they just hit patches where they can't score. That's got to be disheartening. But at least Doug Collins had a great quote about it: "I'm a moral person, but I don't like moral victories." Word aapp.
Portland Trail Blazers 97, Dallas Mavericks 92
Looks like Brandon Roy was totally right — he should be playing big minutes. At least last night. 16 points and four assists in 24 minutes, with a bunch of those hoops and dishes coming down the stretch. It was cool to watch, even if Portland won't be able to count on it from game to game. For one night, at least, Brandon Roy was important again. Cool for him, cool for the Blazers.
(Programming note — No Fix today and only light posting, since it's kind of a holiday. Just a heads up.)


text: you asked... Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I know I shouldn't eat sushi while I'm pregnant, but what else is off-limits now? Want to participate? Log in to share your thoughts Re: I know I shouldn't eat sushi while I'm pregnant, but what else is off-limits now? Now that you're eating for two, what goes in your mouth is very important. In addition to sushi, avoid any other raw seafood or meat -- they carry parasites that are dangerous to your developing baby. Be careful with any fish (even the cooked kind!), because it can contain high levels of mercury. Also avoid alcohol, caffeine and soft cheeses like blue cheese, feta, and brie. Be wary of tap water, especially during your first trimester. And, try to keep junk food (empty calories, no vitamins and nutrients) to a minimum by opting for healthy alternatives. watch: what not to eat during pregnancy The Bump Editors re: Q: Foods to Avoid? I've heard from some sources that deli meats aren't safe. With my job, the convenience of a sandwich on the run when I need something quickly is attractive. Should I steer clear of this? lynettenjoel | re: Q: Foods to Avoid? my doctor just told me no chicken or turkey, and that tilapia and salmon are ok, but other fish aren't ie: shark( never considered trying it but it was the one fish from the list he gave us that stuck on the don'ts)i am curious about the herbs though i have always heard chamomile is NOT recommended and certain teas. mrs.viv07 | re: Q: Foods to Avoid? lunch meat has listeria (sp?) in it and can potentially be harmful to your baby (according to my OB). but i was told if you must have a sandwich, you can heat the lunch meat up to kill the bacteria before consuming melani17 | re: Q: Foods to avoid? how many glasses of milk are you suppose to drink a day? hobokengirl | re: Q: Foods to avoid? I saw on a previous page that there were alot of fish that were "okay" to eat and several studies that said that the omega's in fish could be essential to the development of t3h little one? The fish subject is always so... blah Gamer_Mama | re: Q: Foods to avoid? I also heard to avoid honey, is that true? PWalker | re: Q: Foods to avoid? no honey is to be avoided only in children under 1 because they do not have an acidic environment in their digestive tract to kill the spores that may be found in honey. but for adults we already have an acidic environment. so honey is safe karenandsam | re: Q: Foods to avoid? why is caffine bad for you during pregnancy kesleyd08 | re: Q: Foods to avoid? Fish are good (Omega are needed). Avoid having too much and avoid eating large fish like tuna and sharks because of the mercury. simple288 | re: Q: Foods to avoid? Why should I be wary of tap water? Katy821 | re: Q: Foods to avoid? my doc said the problem with lunch meat is that it sits out, but prepackaged stuff is ok. The deli stuff can carry a bacteria (L something) that can be fatal to the baby. if you have to have it she said to nuke it for a few seconds until it bubbles to kill any bacteria frf1537 | re: Q: Foods to avoid? Why no chicken or turkey? Both are great sources of lean protein--much better for you than beef. If cooked porperly, both should be okay. gotchagomo | re: Q: Foods to avoid? I'm in the 28th week and I can tell you that I never had a problem with COOKED Chicken or Turkey. In fact, that's pasically what I live off of when making dinner. I'm not a huge Red Meat eatter but I haven't had a problem with that either. The reason they tell you that you should be weary of Lunch Meat is because of the Listeria, but that's only because as adults we have the immunities to fight off that bacteria but baby does not. If you are going to eat lunch meat, or even sliced cheese, it's better to do it when you know it is fresh. I rarely eat lunch meat but every time I have, I've been fine. That's not to say that no onecan get anything from it, but the chances of that are rare. I've tried to stay away from alot of sea food while pregnant even though I absolutely love it! I figured that for me it was safer to wait on indulging the things I love from the ocean. I miss tuna so much! haha... I will eat shrimp, salmon and clams every once in a while. I've really eaten the same way that I normally would, which is healthy for the most part. Don't drive yourself crazy over the "What can't I eat" thing. As far as Tap Water goes, I don't drink it just because to me, it tastes like metal right now haha. I stick with purified water just because it doesn't make me gag. I also mix white cranberry juice or any other kind of juice with water because sometimes after CONSTANTLY drinking water, I need a little flavor in my life. =) TinyTiela | re: Q: Foods to avoid? So does this mean that Subway is out since the turkey sits out? I love Subway and that's basically all I've been craving. :( happilymarried121308 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? My pregnant friends and I have been eating subway but getting our subs toasted after they have put on all the vegies so everything is heated to kill bacteria. babyhowland | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Subway has a couple chicken sandwiches, and so does Quiznos. That's what I've had to resort to for the past 8 months. I've also been microwaving my sliced deli smoked turkey breast to a steaming condition, and after it cools down, it tastes just like smoked turkey breast normally tastes. I love sandwiches, and they're the most convenient foods, especially when you're seriously pregnant and your feet swell, so you can't cook elaborate meals anymore. lenuka2007 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I agree with some of the others, just heat your sandwich and you will be fine! adge12 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I am also needing clarification on the tap water part - why is tap water bad? I read that you shouldn't drink bottled water because of chemicals so now what water is safe??? ladyram09 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I read somewhere to avoid papaya, pineapple, and grapes. Does anybody know why these fruits are on the don't list? I love pineapple and grapes. katmpet | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Subway will nuke the meat for you if you ask them to. They did it for me. I have eaten pineapple [[canned]] and grapes during my pregnancy! Canned tuna is okay, as long as it is chunk light in water and not oil. Tilapia is also fine, as long as you don't consume more than 12 ounces in a week, i believe. I drink bottled water, and my baby is fine! I think it's city tap water that you're supposed to avoid, because it's treated. Deli meats from an actual deli are fine, just ask them not to give you the first 2 slices off whatever meat you choose, because it has had the most contact with the air. The rest you can just nuke to get rid of the bacteria. The things you want to avoid the most are fish with high levels of mercury, and empty calories [[chips, unhealthy snack foods, etc.]] They contribute a great deal to your weight. I know. I've gained 20 pounds in 5 months. MrsHenderson2008 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? The tap water I know isn't healthy...the way I see it, anything that smells and tastes like metal probably isn't good for you. I buy the cheap jugs of drinking water and mix in like the Crystal Light packets...I too need some flavor. :) Empty calories aren't good. I had a huge craving for Cheetos last week but at least -somewhat- healthier option for my craving, I got the Baked Cheetos instead. Someone mentioned in a prior post about grapes and pineapple being bad during pregnancy....is that true and why would that be? krazyshay1987 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? My Doc told me that everything was o.k. in moderation, but to avoid shellfish. I work on Labor & Delivery and have also asked a few of our other doctors and some of them say red wine is okay in moderation, some say sushi is ok. I think that whatever you feel safe eating and feeding to your baby is fine. I have eaten sushi, soft cheeses, lunch meat, etc and my baby is perfectly healthy :) KES1108 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? What about flaxsead??? I use it for tummy troubles, but now have read conflicting reviews for pregnant women!!! estroworld | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I know that foods to Avoid During Pregnancy are 1. Raw Meat 2. Deli meats including Hot Dogs. 3. Raw Eggs 4. Fish 5. Smoked Foods 6. Soft Cheese 7. Unpasteurized Milk. 8. Raw Shellfish 9.Pate 10. Caffeeine 11. Alchol 12. Unwashed Vegetables 13.

Sorry ladies about the chocolate. I love chocolate and can't stand the fact that I cant eat it but if it makes my baby healthier than I am all for it. You also have to be careful with Ice Cream. You can have a little bit but not to much. Judie1993 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? okay... i'm sure that Japanese women have eaten sashimi while pregnant, just like i'm sure that Italian ladies have had a glass of wine or two. can we say that for the most part, everything in moderation is okay? I'm not going to get wasted and eat raw salmon and ketchup chips all day every day, but the love of god, people! you're pregnant! LIVE A LITTLE! i've been craving salads and veggies so far, (14 weeks) and if i get the urge to have sushi one day, you bet i won't deny my body what it wants! i understand being cautious in the first trimester, but once things are in the clear... i'd say go hard. within moderation, of course. linneaforever | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? What if eggnog is pastuerized it should be fine though! I will have to double check, tis the season and I have been craving my eggnog! chrisdav79 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? If you've got a craving for eggnog, but aren't sure whether to avoid it or not.. Try "Silk" Nog! It's perfectly safe and it tastes wonderful! It definitely satisfied my craving! ashleahmast | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? i have been having morning sickness for about a week now and the only thing that settles my stomach is pepsi. I have tried ginger ale and it doesnt work. Is there something else i can try so that i am not drinking any "empty calories" Army_Babe | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Person who said no chicken or turkey...What? Why? erika1677 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Re: the chicken and turkey comment - I think her doctor was talking about the lunchmeat & deli versions of chicken and turkey. Listeriosis was the L word the one girl was thinking of; that's the bug that can be found on lunchmeat that sits out, or the salads and stuff at the deli. Cooked chicken and turkey is perfectly fine and very healthy. Protein is good! Stellah124 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Is it true that salt is unhealthy during pregnancy? crosebergman | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? you can drink pepsi, just buy the caffeine free kind! it tastes the same since caffeine is flavorless! ;) darbyjkennedy | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Basically the only way to be healthy and not eat at all cause it's all bad (caffeine, sugar, salt, fish, junk food, WATER!!!!!??? Really??) just don't drink and cut back or quit smoking... and have a feeding tube full of nutrients it's the only way LOL!!! rupprechts | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Hi I'm 12 weeks and I just prepared myself a tuna salad with chicken light tuna in water the bumble bee brand when I remembered about mercury. I was freaking out I was super hungry but I didn't want to eat untill I was sure so I search the internet was disappointed to find differet versions on eating CANNED TUNA; luckilly I hold on to all the paperwork I get @ my clinic and found one sheet that talked about mercury in fish-- It read (Do not eat shark- swordfish- tilefish-or king mackerel). (It is safe to eat other types of fish as long as you don't eat on average of more than 1 pound per week "uncooked weight" or two cans of tuna "6 ounce size" per week. Also very important make sure your food is well prepared and cooked... and be carefully what u read on the internet not everything is acurrate talk to ur Doc. instead... Hope it helps!!!!!!! loduca1686 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I have been putting some Lemon lime Gatorade in my water, to add some flavor and to get electrolytes. Its easy on a rocky stomach too. MrsSmithplus1 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? the deal with tap water is lead poisoning mostly... in that if hot water comes through copper pipes its likely to contain some amount of lead. which can lead to a low IQ in the baby. what "they" say to do is to run the tap you'll be drinking out of on cold for 6 minuets and your water should have run all the metals out of it that it accumulates overnight. cultural note... maybe your mom or grandma always said always start your water cold from the tap when cooking? there was something to that after all. lkscreamer | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I would stay away from Subway sandwiches, the chicken is not actual chicken and is apprent when taking a close look at it This will cure your craving of Subway. Sorry! nyceac | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I'm getting so tired of everyone telling me that i can't eat this or that i should eat more of that! ugh! let me be! if me eating a hamburger and french fries once in a blue moon or having a piece of candy sometimes is going to harm the baby then good lord! theres no way either of us are going to survive! i personally can't live off of vegetables, fruits, and salads all day every day for almost a year straight! it's starting to really get on my nerves! i think that some stuff the dr's tell you not to eat have legitimate reasons behind them, but most of the stuff people say about it just makes me laugh. stop over thinking ladies! just eat and that baby will come out beautiful! bnenglish1988 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? There is good advise here but wow, some really need to relax... Crisa01 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? As far as the lunch meat question - my doctor told me to avoid uncooked, unprocessed meats like salami, pepperoni and bologna. Cooked ham, cooked turkey and cooked roast beef should be fine; however, if the turkey, ham, etc. is sliced in the same place as the "bad meats" then they still run the risk of carrying lysteria. She said to stick with the pre-packaged stuff like Oscar Meyer or Hillshire Farms. Punkin62599 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I think if you ate a balanced diet before and eat everything in moderation, you'll be fine. I have adjusted my diet at all and I've been fine (at week 22). All of this seems like overkill..if you ate to take care of YOURSELF before, the baby will be fine. Of course, no raw fish/foods etc but that's common sense. I went easy on that and fresh fish anyway. miamigirl1969 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I've had deli sandwiches at least 3x/week (bring my own lunch to work) forever . Also throughout my pregnancy. Relax, people! miamigirl1969 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? No amount of alcohol has been proven to be okay during pregnancy. Fish twice per week at most, and yes the larger ones like shark, swordfish, etc should not be consumed at all. Tuna should not be albacore, it should be the light tuna. If you are a coffee drinker, one cup a day is fine; it is problematic b/c some people drink more than five cups/day. Remember during the first trimester the mother's caloric intake does not need to be increased unless she is underweight. ONLY 300 calories more per day is needed during the second and third trimesters, 300 calories is not a large amount. We are not actually "eating for two." Fried foods should be avoided b/c they can irritate the stomach and as pregnancy progress can cause more heart burn, who wants to aggravate heart burn! Chevy4 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? It is interesting to read this information about other countries, like the UK, where it's perfectly fine to have feta cheese. I don't get it. I love feta, and don't see why I can't have it. If people in the UK can have it, why can't we? We are both first-world countries with plenty of controls and hygiene. Radlermaedl | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I'm loving some of these responses :) No chocolate!! Get reallllll! TRY and take that away from a craving pregnant woman!! I agree with being careful of eating hotdogs/lunchmeat/deli meat due to Listeria. It can also be found on other contaminated foods such as produce, so remember to wash your fruits and veggies well! Listeria with pregnant women typically experience only a mild, flu-like illness. However, infections during pregnancy can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn.(taken verbatim from the CDC website) So yes, I would be careful with that. Tuna, in moderation is great. couple cans a week they say, though I did about three with my first because I craved it so much. Tuna and may on crackers? YUM! ashleymae23 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Is Whey Protein a problem when you're pregnant? I've been taking it to supplement my workouts for years for lean defined muscle... Not sure if I should continue taking it or any protein supplements... sbneibaur | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Pretty sure the whey is ok. My chiro today told me that as I progress we will continue to up my protein intake gradually bc it is needed for the babies development. :) Also, I know its highly debated, but I was told by several docs that one glass of wine is safe, and actually has benificial qualities & that no alchohol at all is just a rule that has stuck through the ages. moderation my friends! kimberlyesk | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I am 10 weeks pregnant with my 5th child. My oldest is 20 then 18, 15 and 6, the only thing i avoided was fish, raw meat & soft cheeses. All my pregnancies were wonderful all my children 100% healthy. Just think our parents didn't have all these strict rules on what they could and couldn't eat and we all turned out fine! Right? Just keep it in moderation. Good Luck Ladies ! HEATHERNJASON1 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I am a vegetarian (with the occasional fish & eggs) and this is my first pregnancy, I am very confused on what not to eat. Plus I have a our filter on my sink is that ok to drink?? ashmcdeavitt | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? A guy I work with was very stern that I must not eat Thai food when pregnant. Do all of the women who live in Thailand go for 9 months without eating anything when they are pregnant? alicante2004 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? This is a question you should probably ask your OB. They would have the most knowledge on what is healthy for you to eat. You never want to rely on secondary sources, even if they have shared your experience before. Remember, every woman and pregnancy is different. jbutterfly82 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I didn't know about the undercooked meat being a problem. I am 8 weeks and had a hamburger that was probably med well with some pink, will that one time cause a problem? Either way I won't do that again, but now I'm nervous. adiffen | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Well I've had 2 babies and am pregnant again, and all three times, my midwife told me its excellent to take omega 3 vitamins (fish oils) but to try to avoid eating fish. Also, heating up lunch meat is more healthy for pregnant women because of the lysteria issue. Just throw your sandwich in the microwave for a bit and it's fine. sciencefreak1357 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? are foods high in citric acid something to be avoided? like tomatoes or oranges? i know they have nutritional benefits but what about the acid? will that make me feel worse or give me heartburn? suupbuttercuup | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I think it's whatever you feel comfortable with. My doctor agrees with the everything in moderation. You can have a hot dog just not one every day. Most cheeses in the US are pasturized (even soft ones) and are safe for consumption. The same goes for eggs. (My doctor said I can have eggs benedict and those eggs are not all the way cooked.) In the end if you are going to worry something might happen b/c you ate those foods then avoid them. Otherwise just use good judgement and don't stress! chapetx | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? What about artificial sweeteners? akasha0624 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I would stay away from subway and junk food also when not pregnant! That's no food.. I am Dutch - in Holland health and food is a little different than in US but I would advice to start to eat healthy now! Let junk out! I am 10 weeks pregnant now and Feel very sensitive and mindful. Food can be a mindfulness practice now more than ever! Choose veggies, rinse then well, smell then, observe then and chew well. Find out what your body needs now. I am sure you can be more specific than thinking your body needs subway. What is subway actually?? Think well what to feed your little baby. I found out sour tastes like sour apple or orange helps with nausea on me. Enjoy your new healthy you!! DutchYogini | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? It would be better to focus on the foods that you should eat during pregnancy and make them the majority of your diet, in order to provide the necessary nutrition for both you and your baby. rosscurrie | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? This is all so insane. Everyone needs to relax!!! My sister has three kids and with her last she had a glass of red wine a day throughout the whole pregnancy. Her baby is beautiful and perfect. Her other two are perfect too, and she pretty much ate the same foods she did when she was trying to have a baby in the first place! Having a BITE of cheese or a cup of coffee isn't going to be THAT BIG OF A DEAL. No one can sit around eating leaf lettuce for 9 months! Let's all chill out shall we? You also can get your hair dyed btw, that's a MYTH. You think all these women gaining ridiculous weight (40 lbs, 60 lbs, 70 lbs) and having HEALTHY babies are eating salads?!?! COME ON! Cuppitycake | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Anyone know if its ok to have a one can of diet soda a day ( i need a little caffeine and dont drink coffee). I know they said to limit caffeine to under 200 mg a day, one can of diet soda is about 78 grams of caffeine. But it has phenyketoneurics and i wanted to make sure that was safe during pregnancy. Anyone know the answer.. please email me at email@example.com. thank you courtneycor | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I have a read a few posts about Thai food, Sushi etc. I spent a few months in China...if you live in a foreign country, your body has become immune to those types of foods. Chinese woman spend years strengthening their bodies to the food they make, if you haven't eaten Thai food or sushi every day for 18, 20, 30 years then yeah it can be unsafe, but things in moderation... hgentry34 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? NO ASPARTAME!!!!!!!! adriel85 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? Everything is fine in moderation. Im 30 weeks along now and my doctor said to eat meat as i like it as long as its not an everyday day thing. She recommends red meat once a month. She also said that caffine is fine also as long as its in moderation. The only think she said to avoid was shellfish or the bottom feeding fish such as shark etc. I have never heard of the tap water. If you drank it tons of times before you were pregnant i dont see the issue. HeatherAnne11511 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? You can eat deli meats as long as you heat up the meat to where it's steaming. It gets rid of any bacteria that might be on the meat. kwhitley39 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? So, what if the only cheeses and milk you buy ARE unpastuerized? Neither my son nor I like the flavor or texture of pastuerized, homogenized milk, and it always upsets my tummy. Now that I'm pregnant again, I'm just a little nervous continuing my raw milk & cheese, but they don't make me sick and the stuff from the store does! AmbrosiaHino | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I had a few questions about what was safe to eat too and I found a number for a Pregnancy Risk Info Service. They are 100% free and I found them very helpful! They'll pretty much answer any question you have about your pregnancy. The number is 1-800-733-4727. wisdomswords | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I thought I coldn't eat sushi either, but then after googling, I can have the cooked fish sushi and salmon sushi. They say to avoid mercury but here is somethings that may help you. http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancyhealth/foodstoavoid.html http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancyhealth/sushimercury.htm http://www.nrdc.org/health/effects/mercury/sushi.asp cotelarson2012 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? While I was pregnant, I was well aware of the foods that could have harmed my health estate and my unborn child`s health. One thing I could have not avoided though! I have a thing for hearty soups. They tasted like magic all the time. conquerer | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I've seen some people post about Crystal Light - I would DEFINITELY not recommend that, or any other diet drink for that matter. Aspratame is associated with Autism, a lot. Supposedly there's "not enough evidence to prove the connection" or whatever, but there's so much research pointing to aspratame as a leading cause, that I'm choosing to avoid it while pregnant. I grew up on Crystal Light, and I'm fine, but I'm sure it has a lot bigger of an effect on growing babies. muddmuffin | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? While I was pregnant I ate almost everything I wanted and I took some nutrition supplements from www.bulking-cutting.com.I gave birth to a healthy and beautiful baby. suniscomming | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? don't freak out too much about what to avoid eating. my doctors have always told me that there are no restrictions expect: no more than 2 cans of tuna per week (because of mercury) and make sure you're eating quality sushi (if you're eating it at all), and obviously avoid drugs and alcohol. karinaroselee | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? If you are going to eat deli meat, go for the prepackaged stuff. ajf2010 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I had a miscarriage and avoided all of the "bad" foods, this time I've allowed myself to eat what I want in moderation and have had a problem free pregnancy, I'm 31 weeks. I think stressing over what to eat what not to eat could be more harmful to the baby then the food itself! rere101708 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I know soft cheeses are bad...but I LOVE goat cheese - is this terrible? I'm TTC so not pregnant, but I dread the day someone says no goat cheese during pregnancy...If someone could let me know that would be great! Nicothy | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? processed/packaged meats jackie8927 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I too am often on the run and sometimes have to work well past dinner time. Grabbing a quick sandwich (love Italian Combos) is the easiest and most convenient thing to do. My OB assured me in his 30+ years as an OB he has never seen a case of listeria from a pregnant women eating deli meats on occasion throughout her pregnancy. He states the whole listeria scare started because immigrants coming over from Mexico were eating raw meat and getting the parasite. He informed me that it doesn't mean I should eat it every day but I once every so often won't hurt me. kissmeire | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? I eat soft cheeses, I have a cup of coffee a day, I eat seafood here and there and I totally saw some delicious Italian Cold Cut Slices a party the other night and ate one. My mom is totally irritated with all of the DO NOT's that us girls have to deal with these days. My sister and I are healthy young women, we were not breastfed, we are FIT and we have good head on your shoulders. If you go through your pregnancy being WORRIED and ANALYZING everything, you will drive yourself insane. No smoking or drinking alcohol...I do not smoke, but I did drink socially. Anyways, enjoy your pregnancy and talk to your bump! Exercise when you can, get lots of sleep, get excited about shopping, and keep a positive outlook on life and the baby! Also, about Soft Cheeses, they have to be pasteurized at almost ALL restaurants!! Everything in moderation! mdoty0627 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? and I meant I drank socially before I found out I was pregnant, but I have not at all since I found out. I will start Week 18 tomorrow : ) mdoty0627 | Q&A: Foods to avoid during pregnancy? You can have feta if it is pasteurized. Just look on the package. I eat pasteurized feta often. Also, if your grocery has a large cheese section, you might be able to find pasteurized blue cheese. Yum! I don't eat these at restaurants bc I cant be sure though. My doc also said occasional wine was ok. One glass or less, occasionally, nothing regular. Everyone quotes the "no amount of alcohol is safe in pregnancy" but is also true that that occasionally drinking a SMALL AMOUNT of wine is not proven to be unsafe either. The research is just not there. Heavy, regular drinking is proven to cause negative consequences. StephaniePikePA | Want to participate? Log in to share your thoughts

Lindsay Lohan is ready to move on.
The Mean Girls actress came out of the LAX courthouse beaming, as she appeared to be extremely pleased with herself after successfully completing her probation requirements. In an exclusive interview with TMZ.com, Lindsay talked about finally being able to move on in her life.
"It's just like a tremondous weight that has been lifted off my shoulders," says Lindsay to TMZ.com. "I feel really grateful and just happy to move forward."
Lindsay also told the entertainment website that all her legal woes allowed her to step back and look at her life in full perspective.
"I had worked so hard being something that I wanted to be, which is in this industry, and then I just kind of all let it fall apart," says Lindsay. "So kinda sitting back and looking at that saying, OK this is not what I signed up for. Like, wake up."
So with her very sweet victory and a fresh new start on the horizon, what is next on the list for Lindsay?
Well, the 25-year-old admits she is excited to start preparing for her role as the iconic Elizabeth Taylor for the Lifetime biopic Liz and Dick, which will begin filming soon in Toronto. The redheaded beauty says that she can "relate" to the late Hollywood star and says she will do her best in this new role.
"I'm gonna put my all into it. I'm really honored to be playing Elizabeth Taylor, and I really love the script. It's phenomenal."
We're rooting for you, LiLo!

Ghim-Lay is based in Flightglobal's Washington DC bureau, and manages a team of reporters who cover the commercial airline industry in the Americas. She also reports on the US low-cost carriers and Latin American airlines. She was previously a senior reporter at Flightglobal's Asia-Pacific bureau in Singapore, where she covered Asian commercial aviation, ranging from China's state-owned aircraft manufacturers to Asia Pacific airlines.
Before joining Flightglobal, she was a reporter with Singapore's English language broadsheet daily The Straits Times, where she wrote about land transport issues and policies. She got her start in journalism at the newspaper as a copytaster at its foreign desk, covering politics and general news in the Americas, Middle-East, South Asia and South-east Asia.

We live in sunny California and recently planted yuzu tree in our backyard. Right away we notice that the new leaves are eaten by pests. Originally we saw ants and we sprayed the tree. Ants are gone but something still eating my yuzu plant and the orange tree next to it. Mostly just the new leaves. The yuzu tree is small - maybe 3 feet high. The orange maybe 6 or 7 feet. I've been watching the plants and see no evidence of caterpillars, leaf miners, or snails. We do have snail food as bait around the plants. What could possibly be the culprit? Thank you in advance. Would love to post more pictures if needed. |

Earwigs??? |
With earwigs, are they obvious with naked eyes? I've not seen them. I am not having any luck seeing the pests in my trees. Saw this (attached pic) on my orange tree leaves, which is next to my yuzu - not touching. Could these what's making holes on the leaves of both my yuzu and orange trees? Thanks. |
Looks to be some sort of mite; you can treat with horticultural oil, or neem oil if you prefer. That is not what is chewing your leaves. If it is earwigs, you can find them on the ground under wood, leaves, etc. They do most of their damage at night, so you may not see them during the day on your plants. |

He said the rain was needed and he expects 2010 to be a great year for his business. He also said the past years we've seen drought conditions and as a result, he lost money.

Kintronic Labs Kinstar
Another advantage of the antenna is the wide audio bandwidth it offers in comparison to the typically narrow band characteristics of electrically short AM antennas. Figure 4 illustrates the small change in resistance and reactance of the KCST Kinstar measured over the 1250 ±15kHz band.
The inherent audio bandwidth performance of the Kinstar is evidenced by the less than 2 ohm variation in R and the less than 10 ohm variation in X over the 30kHz bandwidth of a typical HD Radio channel. Following the initial antenna tune-up and commissioning of the transmitter operation into the antenna Bob McClanathan responded, "This past Sunday, Jan. 11, I worked with Jon Thompson and Sparks Scott at KCST in Florence, OR, to complete the ATU adjustments and measurements for their new Kinstar AM antenna. I am very impressed with the quality of the antenna construction, and the operation is much better than what I expected. The impedance at 1250kHz is Z=15.1 + j80.0 ohms and is flatter than a pancake ±20kHz. Would be excellent for IBOC but fortunately KCST is not going there.
"The Kintronic ATU is of excellent quality as usual and built for easy impedance measurements. Very little adjustment was necessary to set the T for Z=50 ± j0 at the transmission line input. The KCST Kinstar is excellent in performance. I met a neighbor near the antenna site who is very pleased with the unobtrusive and nearly invisible appearance of this antenna. When considering the FAA restrictions, local zoning and neighborhood objections, this Kinstar will certainly prove valuable and popular for non-directional AM antenna sites."
King is president of Kintronic Labs.

JAIPUR: If you're in Jhunjhunu and get a sudden urge to relieve yourself in public, you might suddenly find yourself confronted by whistle-blowers—literally. The Jhunjhunu zilla parishad has decided to rope in volunteers who will embarrass people caught urinating or defecating in the open by standing behind them and playing drums or blowing whistles.
To add to their shame, the names of such people will be announced in the village through a public address system. The project has been launched in 34 village panchayats in the district with an aim to get rid of the practice of open defecation.
Interestingly, this unique initiative comes on the heels of Union minister Jairam Ramesh advocating a "no toilet, no bride" mantra to push for increased hygiene and sanitation in rural areas. Officials said that the problem of people urinating at public places is rampant and the decision to dissuade them is part of the plan to raise awareness about sanitation.
Jhunjhunu zilla parishad's chief executive officer Ramniwas Jat said, "There are 288 gram panchayats in the district of which 30 have received the Nirmal Gram Puraskar as every house in these villages has a toilet."
He said a proposal to include 34 gram panchayats under the project has been sent for approval. "We are constructing public toilets at each of these gram panchayats and people will be encouraged to use them. We want to raise awareness against the practice of urinating in public, which gave birth to the idea of beating drums and blowing whistles," said the officer.
"The idea will be implemented in 34 panchayats initially and if results are positive, other areas will also be covered under the initiative," Jat added.
Jhunjhunu district collector Joga Ram told TOI that a sanction for construction of about 10,000 toilets in BPL households has been given recently. Each toilet will cost around Rs 9,000.

And management is going to fire you without pay over it, realize they did so in error, not show any remorse and tell you to shoot HR a cover letter and résumé if you'd like the opportunity to try and get your old job back.
Paul Boudwin knows what we're talking about.
Boudwin's ordeal began in July 2011, when the bank was reviewing its employment records to ensure it complied with new federal rules that, among other things, require a criminal background check for anyone who works at a mortgage originator. When he was hired by the bank in 2006, Boudwin disclosed what he says was a legal misunderstanding from his college days. He and his best friend ate breakfast at a Denny's in Scottsdale, Ariz., near the Arizona State University campus. The place was a student hangout, and after they finished their meal, they mingled with other friends for a while. Each assumed the other had paid the check. When they left the restaurant an hour or so later, a manager confronted them outside, accused them of walking the check and called the police. They were arrested, paid a $50 fine and the $20 tab, tip included. The charge was later dismissed. "There was no intent for not paying for an omelet," Boudwin said.
When Bank of America's review last year turned up the information about the omelet incident that Boudwin disclosed when he was hired, it set off a bureaucratic process impervious to reason. In a letter included in the lawsuit, the bank said the charge amounted to a "disqualifying conviction" under the law, which prohibits anyone convicted of an offense involving dishonesty or breach of trust from working at a financial institution. Boudwin submitted court records showing the charges were dismissed. Bank officials assured him the matter would be sorted out, and the bank even filed for a waiver from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. on his behalf, court records show. However, the bank said because of the new rules, Boudwin couldn't continue to work during the six to nine months it might take to get the waiver. He was put on an unpaid leave of absence, and his Wharton trip was canceled. He was told he would receive his back pay and bonus when he was reinstated, he said. In late February of this year, his boss called. Boudwin thought his ordeal was over and the FDIC had granted the waiver. Instead, his boss told him he was being fired. The bank was tired of waiting, he said his boss told him. Two weeks later, the FDIC granted the waiver, but Bank of America refused to reinstate Boudwin to his old position. He was welcome to reapply, but his seniority, bonus and back pay would be lost.
Unfortunately for Bank of America, Boudwin decided that appealing as competing to come in as a first year employee sounded, he'd prefer to win the money owed to him in court, and filed suit against BofA last week. Will his case set a precedent for financial services employees wrongfully fired over misunderstandings at Denny's, IHOP, OHOP, Waffle House and local diners everywhere? Stay tuned.

Least offensive Denny's story I've ever heard.
I'd like to meet the HR representative who went around like a dog with its tail between its legs telling people he knew about "the next shoe to drop."
Fuck the cover letter and resume. Just shoot HR.
There's a waffle on my house.
um. what?
"Let the wives and children of these bankers be confronted with, and shamed by, the grotesque conduct of their husbands, wives, mothers and fathers"
Well we couldn't let UBS monopolize the "treat your employees like shit" news cycle.

Dine and dash. Blame it on the other guy. Classic defense strategy.
Does it surprise you that the idiots at BAML can't handle the most manageable technicality?
"I'm not guilty. You're the one that's guilty. The omelet makers, the bankers, the pancake lords, all you who lobby against making petty larceny legal. Just like you did with fleecing customers during the financial crisis. You're the one who's guilty. I mean, c'mon, let's kick the ballistics here: Ain't no pancakes made in Charlotte. Not one of us in here owns a bargain-basement breakfast joint. This thing is bigger than Paul Boudwin. This is big business. This is the American way."
Bank of America: Gets sued for cheating millions on their mortgage. Fires mortgage banker for accidently not paying for an omelette.
Omelet you finish…
In Soviet Russia..there are no omlettes…
Lets get it straight . ..It was Moons over My Hammy – Takes precedent over any Omelette ….
I think that was assumed by the Arizona State reference
Denny's still has "Grand Slam's", right? Kinky.
I wish I had more than just one thumbs up to bestow for this one. Sweet!

Yes, but do they know *who* I did at Denny's 14 years ago? Didn't think so.
