This photo is a combination of three consecutive exposures of White Point Beach in the Atlantic Canadian province of Nova Scotia, Canada shortly after sunrise on September 12, 2010. I like the otherworldly quality of this image.
The Method To My Madness:
The three exposures were brought into PhotoShop as separate layers in a single document. Via the use of layer masks and varying the blend modes and opacity I was able achieve the image you see before you. I also switched over to LAB mode and went to channels, selected the lightness channel and applied a small amount of unsharp mask to that channel to bring out a bit more detail. By sharpening in this manner you don't get the weird halo artifacts that you would just sharpening the whole image in RGB mode. After doing this I went back to RGB mode to save the final results.

Beautiful photo/s. But what is that black speck in the sky?
Thanks, Nicole! That is a bird flying by in the distance. Still not sure if I should have just cloned it out.
– Scott Ruhs
I personally think you should, it's kind of distracting and I wasn't sure if it was a bird or a speck. But that's just my opinion and others may think otherwise :)
I agree, Nicole. I fixed it and uploaded the new file. When I have it open in photoshop you can see the shape of the bird better, but on here it does look like a distracting speck. Thanks for your input.

That does look better! No worries :) I know I like constructive feedback and I can't help but open my big mouth sometimes lol.

Aspire Nautilus - Adjustable Airflow Tank System
The Nautilus tank has a large capacity and an adjustable airflow design. With a simple turn of the lower ring, you have four options to adjust airflow to meet different requirements for vaping. With the option of different size air holes, it allows the you to adjust for an easy or tight airflow, how warm or cold the vapor is, and how much vapor is produced.
Replacement coils are here
Pyrex Tank
Stainless Steel
Adjustable Airflow Control - 4 air holes to choose from, just twist the airflow ring .9mm, 1.1mm, 1.4mm, 1.8mm
Pyrex glass tube
BDC (Bottom Dual Coil) Technology
Holds about 5ml of eliquid (much larger than a Protank)
Complete Nautilus Tank (1.6 ohm atomizer pre-installed)
1 replacement atomizer (1.8 ohm)
1 eGo threaded cone
1 user manual (please read)
Height of Nautilus Tank System: 83.65mm
Max Diameter of Nautilus Tank System: 23.45mm
Eric's Notes:
This item will not take ANY other coils, only the Nautilus coils
Clean all parts before using, the glass, the base and the top! Please be careful with this tank, it is made of glass and can shatter and break if dropped. Breakage of the tank is not warrantied. Filling this unit is different from the other tanks as the glass actually comes off when you fill it, read the manual!
When building this tank or removing parts, please be sure to clean and dry all parts. When refilling, changing the coil make sure the center tube is on properly and tight, not having it all put together properly will result in leaking. Do not overtighten the top or bottom base, finger tight is good. I grasp the top and bottom with both hands (one on top the other on the base) and twist slowly until it stops, it does not need to be tightened more than that, over tightening can cause breakage. Glass Breakage or drops are not covered under any warranty.
Do not store in pockets, try not to drop them and be careful putting them back together.
Coil heads are not warrantied, neither is the glass. as this is a new product, I suggest you purchase one to try it out.
Eric's Review:
Well.. it's a beast which is kinda awesome, there is a LOT of liquid in this thing and I believe I finally found a good tank I can vape all day with without refilling! For perfomance, I have had it about 30 minutes and I am very impressed so far, I didn't think the airflow thing would make a difference to me, boy was I wrong, it's GREAT! I hope all tanks start coming out with this feature, it makes a world of difference in heat, flavor and vape. There were a few early reviews saying this leaked.. not a drop, doesn't gurgle either (for me) but this holds 5ML! I am not sure anyone could have any leaks with this tank as it is a sealed 510 connection, so it is not going to leak out of the base connection. Keep it above the half way mark if you can or if you experience gurgling of any kind. Is it worth the money? So far, yes. Are the coils worth it? Unsure, they are expensive so they better hold up a long time.
READ THE MANUAL, Don't expect this to do your laundy just because it is expensive! Cost does not always equal return, I like this, I think you will also.
A Customer let us know that cleaning the base isn't easy and you must remove all liquid from the base before refilling. The moisture fills up the base and really doesn't come back out easy, he had to use compressed air to get the remaining moisture out.

I give the tank 5 stars, but the coils a 3. have not gotten the longevity some have claimed. It is a very satisfying vape. Store the tank upside down when not in use, tends to prevent gurgling.have not used my pro-tanks in a week!
Posted by Lancefer on 21st Aug 2014
It works. I'll give it that. Ease of use is not so good as you really have to clean to get running properly again. I have used for about a day before saying the heck with it and going back to my Innokin iClear 30b Bottom Dual Coil Tank. Speaking of the iClear (a great product), I cannot seem to find it anymore to buy more.
Posted by stu on 7th Jul 2014
Some people are saying the wicks are burning out quick I solved that problem never go over 7.5 watts and you will get 7 days, I vape this tank at 6.5 watts still tastes great and I change the wick about every 9-10 days. don't over tighten wick when you screw it in just a snug fit never have a problem again. I put 5 out of 5 but more like 4 and a half out of 5 still very good. Vape on!!
Posted by Stu on 7th Jul 2014
buy the steel tank replacement never have another problem with flooding again it's air tight better seal for some reason, this tank rocks now. I use all VG fluid good flavor great vapor for a none rebuildable tank. I give it 5 out of 5!
Posted by Aaron on 10th Jun 2014
The tank is perfect. It is well constructed and holds a large volume of juice. The coils on the other hand deteriorate rather quickly. I have to change my coils ever other day because they burn out so quickly. I thought I was doing something wrong but it seems many others are having the same problem. It wouldn't be that bad if the coil replacements weren't so expensive.
Posted by Justin Bleyle on 26th May 2014
I've had my tank for about a month now. Very sturdy tank thus far. Love the capacity, although I continue to use my other tanks for a change of flavor. I'm still not sure if I want to purchase another one as the coils have been inconsistent. My first coil lasted about 3 weeks, I was pleasantly surprised. However, the second one I used from 1.8 box got a burnt taste after about 3 days. I'm on my third coil now and it seems to be working well after a week. I know with coils you may get a dud every once and while, but at the price they are selling for, I would hope you wouldn't have to deal with duds.
Posted by CMS on 26th May 2014
I agree with all the reviews BUT I cannot find any replacement glass tanks which I have already broken. Any answers to this one?
Posted by Justin on 5th May 2014
First off, I have to agree with Eric, this tank is a BEAST. There is a lot of liquid and it lasts a long time depending on how you vape. I just quit smoking, and I'm purely ecig now, so I'm a heavy vaper and I can get through a full day, and then some, without adding liquid. As for the coils, I seemed to have burnt out the one that came with it (1.6). My volts probably too high or didn't break it in properly (I did let it sit for at least 30 minutes). I think these work best when you break it in easy like. I switched to a 1.8 head, and started easy, around 3.5v, and worked my way up from their. It seems to take a little longer to break in, but once it does, it will hit like a champ. I've been going strong for an entire week so far on one coil, I hope it continues to last for a while longer, which brings me to one reason why it didn't get 5 stars. I cringed when I saw the price of the coils, however, if they last a long time, that will make it worth while.
I rarely give 5 stars, as you can always find ways to improve a product. I think I wished there were more alternatives besides the 1.6 and 1.8 coils offered at this point. I prefer a little higher rating, but that's just me and probably just the way I vape.
I really enjoyed the fact that I can dial in the airflow, I've never really had a problem with airflow in my other tanks, but it is a really nice feature for sure.
Gurgling? Not for me! I've had my tank down to 1/4 full, and no gurgle yet.
Leaking? Not a drop! The base is sealed, and my battery stay's clean as a whistle.
The question I've been asking myself for a week now, will I give up my other Pro Tank III's and buy a second Nautilus? Not yet, the jury is still out on the coils.
Would I recommend this to a friend? Yes, but it may be hard on the wallet.
Do I like the coils? Yes, but the 1.8 works best for me, and they are relatively expensive. Also, I'm not sure about longevity at this point.
Posted by Alex Brown on 17th Apr 2014
Love the build and performance of this tank, that is when it is working properly. The 2 stock heads that came with this tank lasted me only 1 day each before an awful burnt silica taste arose. Use 70/30 pg/vg. Never even went above 4 volts on my mvp. Worked ok on 4v for a couple hours and had to gradually drop farther and farther over the next 24 hours all the way down to 3.4v where the performance is horrible, hardly any vapor at all. Maybe I got bad heads with mine but man i dont know if i can bring myself to spend $18 on a 5 pack of heads that may only last for 24-48 hours. Definently gonna look farther into this before spending that amount of dough. Its a shame cause the first few hours this tank hit like a BEAST, but horrible after that. Anyone else having these coil issues? Or was i just the lucky one to get the bad batch? Who knows. Hope everyone else has better luck cause these things are expensive!!!
Posted by StacyF on 14th Apr 2014
I'm a newbie to vaping (about a month) and have managed to buy five different kinds of clearomizer tanks during that time, including the Kanger Aerotank and the Innokin 30S. I've been buying juices all over the place because they tasted great when I tested them at the store but they're much more disappointing once I bring them home. Enter the Aspire Nautilus. AMAZING! Even at only 3.5V on my iTaste MVP 2.0, I'm getting dense vapes and the rich, potent flavors I remembered from the vape shops using this clearomizer (I'm using the second smallest of the four air hole settings) The difference was so huge that I tried the same juices again with the other clearomizers I had, wondering if maybe the real difference was the the juices had time to steep after I cast them aside in disappointment the first time I tried them. Nope! It's definitely the Nautilus. I already bought a second Nautilus because it holds so much juice that I need two just so I can switch back and forth between at least two flavors at a time. It may cost more than other tanks but the fact that I'm going back to use juices I'd given up on has made it worth every penny!
Posted by Jared bradley on 12th Mar 2014
And i have had allot of tanks. This is the one. I'm gonna sell my other tanks because all I want is this Nautilus. The flavor is like no other tank, the hits are smooth. Someone finally made a tank the correct way the 1st time. I've had no leaking issues, refilled it three times already. Comes apart easy and goes back together easy. The air flow ring is another love of mine for this tank becase is locks (clicks) into place where the competitors air flow ring just free spins and I hate that. I will be redoing my whole tank collection with the Nautilus.
Posted by Wulf on 27th Feb 2014
The best tank I have tried. I used to be a die hard Kanger vaper, but now it's the Nautilus. Been using over a week. No dry hits, no burnt taste, great vapor, great flavor. Still using the same original coil. Some videos out there on how to rebuild this one as well. Might try rebuilding once the original coil burns out, but for now gonna keep on vaping. Finally, a quality tank with a quality coil. Just wish DV would get some back in STOCK! The price difference will easily be made up for by not having to buy as many coils. Well worth the money!!
Posted by Cah on 20th Feb 2014
I have waited 2 months to review the Nautilus hoping things would turn around. I must have received the only defective device. The vape from this tank is great when there's a good head in it. The 1.6 ohm head that came with it was great. The 2.1 ohm was garbage and tasted burnt from the get go. The issues I have experienced are at about 4ml and 2.5ml liquid levels when the Nautilus would flood and gurgle. It continues to do this until I set it down on a paper towel for a while and the juice will eventually make its way out the air hole. I use a 70/30 liquid and it does this like clockwork. Only the largest and smallest air holes in my tank line up with the spinning ring. The other two don't even line up correctly when the ring locks into place so some of the hole is blocked by the ring. When this tank is working, it works great. I just hate that I have to cover it with paper towel when I travel so I don't get e-liquid all over when burps it out the air hole. I love the amount of liquid it holds. There's so much I love about this tank but the issues I have are very disappointing. Again, I seem to be one of a very few with issues like this.
Posted by Brian D on 18th Feb 2014
I've had my 2 Nautilus tanks for a month now, and they perform wonderfully! Paired up with my Provari Mini, I have a great setup that I can dial-in to any juice/mood.
They break down and clean easily and all the parts so far, including coils, seem like quality pieces and have worked perfectly.
I think Aspire would hit a grand slam if they offered up an alternative cap. I like the look of it, though I would appreciate a more modern option, but I've heard several people cite the appearance as their only complaint. Some go so far as saying it'll prevent them from using it as there everyday tank.
Came back to buy a 3rd, but DV is out of stock. ACK!
Posted by rhinovr on 16th Feb 2014
Best taste, throat hit, and consistency of any tank I've tried. Airflow controller is a must have from now on. Good look finding replacement cartridges though!
Posted by Kollin P. on 14th Feb 2014
I was hesitant to plunk down so much money on a tank, but the Nautilus is WELL worth the money. Vapes like a champ, on par with any RBA. Holds 5ml of juice, too! I'll definitely be getting a second one (when they're back in stock, that is). I was a Protank 2 & 3 fan, but those have taken a back seat to the Nautilus now.
Posted by stephanie Bledsoe on 13th Feb 2014
I really like this tank, I have the protank 3 and the kanger aero tank. The aero is a good tank but a little fuzzy with airflow control, the nautilus has a smooth control that clicks into place.The vape is awesome and clouds of vapor, this is my go to tank. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of the looks and there is no protection for the glass tank. I would still buy one and the amount of liquid it holds is crazy.
Posted by Chuck N. on 11th Feb 2014
The taste and consistent vape of this tank is almost unnecessary compared to the chance that I get to show it off and talk about the benefits of vaping everywhere I go.
Posted by Sheila S on 3rd Feb 2014
This beast vapes just like a RBA! I love the fact that you can adjust the airflow to match your juice. This vapes as well as my Russian 91 and holds more juice. Aspire hit a home run with this one! The only con is the cost of the replacement coils. I am hoping they come down in time.
Posted by M. Peinqc on 2nd Feb 2014
I have literally tried every tank on the market. Was always a Protank II fan and then decided to try the new Aspire coils. I fell in love with them immediately and haven't touched a Kanger tank since.
When the Nautilus came out I noticed it was a little pricey but was anxious to try. I could go on and on about the benefits of this tank but it would simply take too long. If you try the Nautilus, it will be the last tank you buy.
However.... I have discovered a related problem since buying the Nautilus. I CAN'T BUY ANY REPLACEMENT COILS! Not from here anyways. The coils last a VERY long time, but do need to be changed periodically. I have been trying to purchase coils for the past two weeks and they have been sold out. Both the 1.6 and the 1.8 ohm coils have been "sold out" ever since I bought the tank. I LOVE this tank, and I LOVE DiscountVapers, but for the first time I am going to have to go to another website to get replacement coils so I can continue to use this MASTER PIECE by Aspire.

Mount Sakurajima, photographed by NOAA's Suomi NPP satellite. (NOAA image)
One of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's satellites detected the Aug. 18 eruption of Japan's Mount Sakurajima 14 hours before it occurred, according to a statement from the weather agency.
The satellite – the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) – pinpointed heat from the volcano while on one of its 14 daily orbits around the Earth using its Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor. Half a day after the satellite detected the thermal buildup, the volcano erupted, sending an ash plume three miles into the air.
Technically speaking, Suomi NPP is the first in the government's $13 billion next-generation Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) fleet. It's really just a converted demonstration satellite launched in 2011 in hopes of mitigating a gap in polar-orbiting satellite coverage.
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite sensor that allowed the satellite to predict the volcanic eruption.
While its sibling satellites – the first of which will not be operational until 2017 – will have far more powerful technical capabilities and instrumentation, detecting a volcanic eruption before it happens is proof that Suomi NPP has some cool features of its own.
"VIIRS continues to show new and remarkable capabilities that will enable scientists to better understand the Earth – from the land to the highest levels of the atmosphere," said Dr. Chris Elvidge, head of the Earth Observation Group of NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center in Boulder, Colo.
VIIRS will be included in the JPSS-1 and JPSS-2, which are expected to be operational in 2017 and 2022, respectively. JPSS represents the next generation of polar-orbiting satellites that will have an increased role in weather prediction.
Note: This story was updated on Aug. 26 to correct projected date of operation for JPSS-2.

Take a Picture: Snapchat Settles With FTC Over "Dissapearing" Claims 51
from the if-it-reaches-an-output-device-it-can-reach-an-input-device dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
We all know that things like screen grabs can "save" a snap chat on the other side. There is always an analog hole. To get a fine over it is stupid.
Snap chat's promise is that THEY don't save it - either on their server or in their app. The summary doesn't seem to indicate they did otherwise either.
This smells of the people at snap chat being invited to Fort Meade (NSA HQ), and told to install a back door (NSA's "collect it all" policy). When they refused (they wouldn't have started the company if they could agree to it), they now face a multi-gajillion dollar fine, and "supervision" guaranteed to drive them out of business.
I'm pretty sure we're watching the results a shake down. Very likely they are also under a gag order preventing them from speaking out about it.
If only we had a free press to tell us what really happened...
Land of the free, indeed.
If you can't understand it, it is intuitively obvious.

Hi all
New thread time
Previous thread
Posted 10 April 2012 - 02:32 PM
Hi All!
I have never posted in a forum before, but a friend directed me here and I am so glad I have found you! I am 31 weeks and have been in agony from the front of my pelvis when walking, sitting, lying down (oh my the lying down... ) for about a month now. I went to my GP who said "it's probably the position of the baby, take paracetamol and have a warm bath". I spoke to my midwife who said "oh yes, very normal, here try some tubigrip" and sent me away. In the interim I had a fall where I nearly did the splits (OUCH!!) and went to a different GP who wanted to simply sign me off. By that time I had done some Googling and asked to be referred to a physio. Sadly I can't find a specialist near me (Sydney's Northern Beaches) and ended up at a general sports physio. He gave me some exercises designed to help strengthen my pelvic floor and got me a support belt but told me that there was little he could do to make it better.
I have tried the support belt twice so far and both times it has kicked off severe lower back and lower abdomen cramping that lasted on and off for a couple of days so I am a little scared of it now! Didn't really find that it helped that much for the few hours it was on either. Sigh...
I am going to see my midwife again this week and will discuss it further. I am just surprised that no one seems to either know much about it, or take it seriously! So it is heartening, yet also sad, to find so many people on here that understand the pain. Everyone's first reponse is "oh yes, bad back eh? That's normal I had that too." Um no. I feel like I have been hit between the legs with an iron bar, am frequently unable to lift my feet off the floor because of the pain and walk holding onto things. I am also starting to get very sleep deprived because I can't move in bed without my pelvis clicking, cracking and feeling like it is being pulled apart at the front every time I move. Work is starting to get difficult because I have an hour commute, get stuck in front of a computer or on the phone for hours on end and then cannot stand up.
So far I have tried sitting on a gym ball, icing the area, using heat packs, sleeping with a pillow between my knees, sleeping propped up on the sofa, physio, walking, not walking, baths, crutches but so far nothing seems to be helping...what else is there???
I am going to make sure I speak to the midwife about birthing positions, and have read that all fours, on the side and in water are good ideas. I have no other indications of needing a c-section, and from the responses of my medical advisors so far they are unlikely to take my pain seriously enough to suggest that anyway. Is there anything I have missed that could help? Or does anyone know of a good person (physio/chiro/osteo) to go to on the Northern Beaches, or even in the CBD that could offer some more help or at least admit that there is something going on?!!! I am getting so sick of people telling me that it is a "normal" part of pregnancy. Well it might be normal, but that doesn't mean it doesn't REALLY HURT!
I hope all of you are feeling ok today and are, like me, pleased to read all of the good news stories of the ladies on the previous thread who have had their babies and recovered well afterwards! Lets hope more of us have lovely things like that to post in the future!
Posted 13 April 2012 - 03:18 PM
Hi, you poor thing, it sounds terrible! I have SPD too, but you definitely seem to be having it much worse than me! The only thing that seems to be working for me right now is complete rest, so if you can take time off I would say do it. I'll be feeling better then will go out to the shops or something and aggravate it again, so resting as much as possible is the main thing working for me right now.
You're right about the medical advice, there doesn't seem to be much that can be done, just heat packs on the back and ice packs on the pelvis, that's what i've been told. This physio has been recommended to me: Julia Schwarz, Suite 4 54-60 Briggs St, Camperdown, NSW, 2050 (02) 95162612. She's right beside the RPA hospital, not sure if that's any help. Hope you feel better soon!
Posted 23 April 2012 - 03:50 PM
Hi OP,
I feel your pain I really do! My first pregnancy I was on crutches - the pain was unbearable!
I had never even heard of anything like it or felt anything like it! I was undiagnosed. The pain started at around 22 weeks (I should mention I was pregnant with my twin daughters). It started on one side and ppl and drs thought it was sciatica. But it got much worse. My midwife (40 years plus experience) said she had never seen anything like it! Yikes!
I ended up walking with crutches to take the pain off my hips. No-one (tried Physio, ultrasounds - to see if there was something wrong, saw an Orthopedic Surgeon who suggested cortisone injections - I refused as I didn't know how that would affect the babies).
I found that every time my daughters heads were pressing on my hips that's when the pain would be at it's worst. And twin A was always head down....!
The good news is that once I had them pain was all gone! I was stressed that I would be dealing with the c-section pain as well as the hip pain but all turned out well.
I'm now pregnant for the second time (just 1 baby this time) and hope that there will be no pain this time round!
Good luck OP! It's worth it in the end.............

Hi Im 29.5 weeks pregnant with bubba 2, had no problems with ds but was diagnosed at 23 weeks this time with spd. I have a support belt which helps sometimes but other wise I need pain relief to be able to even get out of bed! I was hoping someone might be able to help me with a question as I don't see my ob for another month. I'm a bit worried that the belt might restrict bub being able to drop down into my pelvis when its time for her to do so. I'm guessing the belt is probably to low but I cant get it out of my head for some reason. She definitely hates me wearing it, if Ive had it off she will start kicking as soon as I put it on! Also what has help you ladies get comfortable when you sleep? If I put a pillow between my legs it hurts more, I currently have to sleep with my belt on as well or I end up in so much pain after an hour or so. If anyone has any advice on what helps I'd really appreciate hearing it, I'm still currently working as we are self employed & having trouble finding someone to replace me so giving up work as planned just isn't an option right now & the doctors that keep telling me to just don't seem to understand the impact it would have if I was to leave now.
Posted 30 July 2012 - 11:39 PM
OP, I share your frustration about the lack of information and understanding about SPD from a great majority of medical professionals. I don't think that the majority of people understand just how excruciatingly painful it can be. I was lucky to find a physio whose wife (also a physio) suffered with severe SPD when pregnant so my symptoms were taken very seriously and I was treated to manage my pain as best as possible. My sports physio's wife also suffered from SPD, so when I was referred to him from my physio I was again taken seriously.
Have you tried cold / heat packs (I lived with a heat pack between my legs from 16 weeks with DD and 13 weeks with DS!)? Depending on how severe your symptoms are, it might help to have your back taped by a physio. Mine was taped once a week and I hung out for Taping Day . A SIJ belt and belly belt combination might also help, as will mobility aids such as crutches or a walking stick.
I hope your SPD disappears after the birth of your baby and you are not one of the 7% of women for whom SPD does not go away. If you are in the unlucky 7% (like me), then set yourself up with a good specialist team. As well as my physio and my sports physio I have a remedial massage therapist, a chiro, a podiatrist and a psychologist.
This is a horrible condition.
ETA @impatientmummy, the cushion/pillow between the legs was excruciating for me, too. The only way I could sleep was on my back.

I just purchased a pair of pregnancy shorts from recoveryshorts.com. They are $202 with postage. I was 17 weeks when OB noticed the warning signs; lower back pain, hip pain and a tender (very very very) pubic bone. She was very concerned as it is REALLY early to develop these symptoms. She suggested the shorts and after two weeks of uming and ahing over the price, I bit the bullet. I still get sciatic pain, but the ache in my hips has lessened. They are very thick and go down to my knees, so not sure how I'll go in summer. Good luck ladies.

Hi, I'm newly pregnant (4wks) but interested in reading this post. I'm very scared of spd and I know its onset is imminent as I am hypermobile which means I already have loose joints and get hip pain walking and can feel it worsening at this very early stage even with the slightest rise in relaxin levels. I plan on telling my close friend who is a womens health physio about my pregnancy earlier than I would want to, to try and get some exercises and tips to get on top of it early. Definitely scared of what the future holds for my poor pelvis!
Posted 10 January 2013 - 04:44 PM
Hi everyone,
I am another new one here.
I have just gotten home after spending the night in hospital. My pelvis has slipped and I was referred here by one of the ladies in my DIG.
I am 22 +3 weeks pregnant.
I have had painful hips (crunching and popping as i walk and move) recently and on tuesday all of a sudden i was in agony. Finally went to the ER yesterday after no sleep on tuesday night and they admitted me.
I have been referred to the physio at the hospital (who has already seen me twice in 2 days) who has got me to come in bi-weekly until she feels i am ok.
also i have an appointment with the orthopeadic surgeons on monday to see if there is anything else we can do, and also determine if i need to get an xray, they think i might have fractured my pelvis during the last 2 days, due to the amount of pain i am in.
I have a very active 2 year old at home so alot of my "do not do" list involves things for my son.
Posted 13 January 2013 - 04:20 PM
Wow, never knew there was an SPD support group here.
Is it ok if I include my sciatica (well, technically sacro-iliac joint related pain). I have both sciatica AND SPD.
I have had the sciatica since 20 weeks and the SPD since about 28 weeks. Currently 30+3.
Its pretty bad. I have been to the physio and I have a support belt plus those SRC shorts. They help but not much. The physio said she can't do anything more for me.
The pain is so bad that at its worst I get no sleep, panadeine doesn't touch the pain and I end up wishing for a c/s then and there! I have constant sciatic pain and the SPD is mostly movement related (like if I open my legs too much). It's difficult and painful to walk around (and sit for too long too) and I dread stairs and sleeping. Sleeping is when it is worst. I hobble around like an old lady! When it's really bad I find myself wishing for crutches or a wheelchair. Yep, I'm in a bit of a sulk.
Anyway I'm dreading another 10 weeks of this and am hoping some of you understand what I'm going through, it looks like some of you (unfortunately!) do.
As a side, I have quite a few mobile joints too but not enough to be officially diagnosed as hyper mobile or anything.
Mum of: that sounds positively horrible!
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:07 PM
cyaira, I definatly understand what your going through, although i have another 17 weeks before i am due
I am already looking at a c-section as i have been told my pelvis might shift during labour and i wanted a natural birth again....
is this your first baby?
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:15 PM
17 weeks!! Oh no *hugs* that truly sucks. I hope you have a good care team.
What does it mean if your pelvis shifts during labour? I was kinda hoping my mobile joints would make the process easier, but maybe that's just wishful thinking for something good out of all this!
Yeah it's my first baby... Its nearly enough to put me off having another and I heard it gets worse each time.
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:21 PM
Luckily for me I have the Randwick womens hospital looking after me, and so far they have been amazing
Pelvis shift during labour for me means that during my labour my pelvis could move, effectively blocking the babies path out :-(
I didnt have this with my son, and just because you have it this time doesnt mean you will have it next time, just means your more likely to :-(
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:35 PM
Just found this thread from "we are discussing" I had PSD from about 30 weeks. I was with the RHW in randwick to and got to see the physio for free from about 34 weks . They were good but are limited in what they can do that late in pregnancy. Luckily the pain went away as soon as the baby was born - So hang in there ladies, on the down side my GP told me it would be worse next time
My question is probably a bit shallow. I am not sure if it is directly related to the PSD but my hips have widened significantly and are now at least 2 clothing sizes larger than pre pregnancy - I have gone back to my prepregnancy weight its just the hips. My baby is now 7 weeks old - a friend gave me a belt that is suposed to help, but I think it is too late now.
Anyone else have this problem?
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:45 PM
Chief Pancake: I am still pregnant, but my hips have increased in size by at least 10cm and I haven't really put on much weight so I expect I'll have the same problem. I would think that 7 weeks postpartum definitely not too late to start using the belt though - why don't you try and see how it goes? Can't hurt, can it?
Posted 13 January 2013 - 05:57 PM
Okay so my DS is now 3 and I just read something about a percentage of women having ongoing issues and I really think it's time I admitted I'm still in a lot of pain and how to I go about getting help? I had SPD and sciatica and needed a carer to help with things from about 34 weeks onwards - couldn't walk much at all from about 30ish I think. I did see Julia Schwatz but didn't really find it that helpful. Did the hot/cold thing, pillow thing and support belts and such.
Anyhow I had a horrible on my back labour and pushing with legs apart and people pushing my head down to my chest while I had an epi (that ended up giving me a spinal headache and weird back zaps for days at injection site) which is the worst thing to do and couldn't walk much after birth for weeks.
Now I still have pain almost every day if I think about it. Not severe all the time but enough that I can't sit on a bench seat for example with out standing up and not being able to walk properly. Feels like my lower back is frozen, can't stand to have it touched, it gets worse around periods with full on similar symptoms like pregnancy. I limp at times and if my son jumps on me and puts pressure on my hips, especially my right one I'm in agony. At it's worst I swear something feels like it's "broken' the pain is that bad.
I'm worried a GP will just say it's weight related - I'm 95kilos and have been since 16, and even pregnant didn't put on much so I've been constantly the same size.
Where should I go for help?
Posted 13 January 2013 - 07:22 PM
Tecopa, better to see your doctor than not to see your doctor, although they may say its weight related there may be underlying issues....
Cheif pancake maker, i have no idea how much my hips have increased insize, i suppose tomorrow when see the orthopedic surgeon and probably get an xray, they will tell me how big the gap in my pelvis is.... I am sure the belt will give some help, if not head back to your GP and find out if there are other options for you.
Posted 13 January 2013 - 07:39 PM
Hi Guys,
I just wanted to drop in and say I hope things get better for you all soon. I had SPD from about 24 weeks and the pain was soooo bad. I was having physio twice a week for a while, but it didn't really help, and I felt like I needed a wheelchair a lot of the time (if sitting wasn't so painful).
Make sure that your OBGyn knows you have this and you discuss what positions are best (if you plan to have a natural labour). If you don't have an understanding ObGyn, talk to the nurses at your hospital when you go in.
I told my ObGyn but he didn't listen and wrenched my knees apart. I swear it hurt more than the contractions at that stage If I go for another baby again, I will be crystal clear on this point, that's for sure...
All the best,
Posted 28 January 2013 - 02:58 PM
Hi Ladies,
I sympathise with everyone suffering with this painful illness!
I'm 25-weeks with DS2 and have had SPD symptoms for about 6-weeks (I didn't have it with DS1), but was formally diagnosed 2-weeks ago. I'm having a CS on the 1st of May, and the clicking in my pelvis/pubic bone area has started, along with serious immobility (probably only upright for 2hrs a day at the moment, always icing, Panadol, fish oil, belly belt, etc). I'm really scared about how bad this is going to get and if it will/won't go away after DS2 is born.
I'm located in Brisbane North-West and I'm looking for a good physio/chiro for any help/treatment. Any suggestions? Please feel free to message me details.

Hi everyone, I'm starting an Australian PGP support network. It's online. If u are interested in joining please pm me. I have had it for 3 months post birth this time and spent half of that on bed rest I think there is a need for women like us to connect as this has been very isolating... I hope none of you have to go through what I have been through. Third birth and the rest were fine!

I'm only 2 weeks so I'm hoping my twinges are psychosomatic! However I never really fully recovered, so they quite possibly aren't
The emotional effects in previous pregnancies have been almost as bad or worse as the physical - the fear that the pain will never go away and I'll be disabled for life and have to never return to the hobbies I love
Anyway. Good luck to us all.

I suffered from Pubis Symhysis pain in my pregnancy and was told it was "minor" and "would resolve itself". After more than 2 years of crippling pain and enormous disability I had the joint bolted back together with pins and a plate. That was 21 years ago and I continue to suffer chronic pain.
If you have this condition - please take it very seriously. The expert in this field is a Physiotherapist, Barbara Hungerford, who completed a Phd in Pregnancy Related Pelvic Dysfunction. Her practice is in Haberfield - however she has now trained many phsyios, nurses and doctors. It is worth going to her for an initial assessment though.
The pubis symphysis is the largest weight bearing joint in the body - if it is permanently injured it will cause life long pain and disability. However, with the right treatment and advice, you can recover full function! I never want to see anyone else go through what I went through. Please take care!

Most recent performance
There are currently no scheduled performances of Tosca. It was last on stage 10 May—26 June 2014 as part of the Spring 2013/14 season.
The Story
The painter Mario Cavaradossi agrees to help the fugitive Angelotti escape – and so attracts the attention of Scarpia, the sadistic Chief of Police. Scarpia captures Cavaradossi and has him tortured within earshot of his lover Tosca.
Read more… (Contains spoilers)
From its strident opening chords, Tosca conjures up a world of political instability and menace. The Chief of Police, Scarpia – one of the most malevolent villains in opera – ruthlessly pursues and tortures enemies of the state. His dark, demonic music contrasts with the expansive melodies of the idealistic lovers, Tosca and Cavaradossi, who express their passion in sublime arias. Giacomo Puccini's dramatic work was a hit with audiences on its 1900 premiere and it remains one of the most performed of all operas.
A candle-lit church, Scarpia's gloomy study with its hidden torture chamber and the false optimism of a Roman dawn: Jonathan Kent's naturalistic production throws into relief the ruthlessly taut drama, as the tension is wound up towards its fateful conclusion. Puccini's score is infused with the same authentic detail, from distant cannon fire during the Act I Te Deum to tolling church bells and the sounds of a firing squad.

On Wikipedia
Tosca (Italian pronunciation: [ˈtɔska]) is an opera in three acts by Giacomo Puccini to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. It premiered at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome on 14 January 1900. The work, based on Victorien Sardou's 1887 French-language dramatic play, La Tosca, is a melodramatic piece set in Rome in June 1800, with the Kingdom of Naples's control of Rome threatened by Napoleon's invasion of Italy. It contains depictions of torture, murder and suicide, as well as some of Puccini's best-known lyrical arias, and has inspired memorable performances from many of opera's leading singers.Puccini saw Sardou's play when it was touring Italy in 1889 and, after some vacillation, obtained the rights to turn the work into an opera in 1895. Turning the wordy French play into a succinct Italian opera took four years, during which the composer repeatedly argued with his librettists and publisher. Tosca premiered at a time of unrest in Rome, and its first performance was delayed for a day for fear of disturbances. Despite indifferent reviews from the critics, the opera was an immediate success with the public.Musically, Tosca is structured as a through-composed work, with arias, recitative, choruses and other elements musically woven into a seamless whole. Puccini used Wagnerian leitmotifs (short musical statements) to identify characters, objects and ideas. While critics have frequently dismissed the opera as a facile melodrama with confusions of plot—musicologist Joseph Kerman famously called it a "shabby little shocker"—the power of its score and the inventiveness of its orchestration have been widely acknowledged. The dramatic force of Tosca and its characters continues to fascinate both performers and audiences, and the work remains one of the most frequently performed operas. Many recordings of the work have been issued, both of studio and live performances.

POMA is Working for its Members
Let POMA Work for You
I can't tell you what a pleasure it is to have joined POMA. The professionalism and enthusiasm are refreshing.
Bill Liston
VP Advertising & Promotion, Daiwa
VP Advertising & Promotion, Daiwa
No one is doing what POMA is doing when it comes to education and opportunities. POMA reacts quickly to situations and is in tune with the needs of media and industry.
J.R. Robbins
Hobie has been a POMA Corporate Partner since last summer (2009). Quite honestly, when we first joined, I was not sure how it would work out for a fishing-oriented company like Hobie, but thought that it would be worthwhile to try. Have I ever been pleasantly surprised!
For starters, staff is easy to communicate with and is diligent with follow-up. We all know how important that is. POMA listens to its Corporate Partners. The frequent correspondence with members is useful without being frivolous.
When there was an issue with the expense of the conference for things that Hobie and other supporting members would not be taking advantage of, POMA found a way to work with Corporate Partners and restructure the fees so that they worked well for everyone involved.
As important, we really appreciate the fact that your 2010 summer conference will have water access so that we, along with other "water" products, will have the opportunity to showcase our boats in their own environment. No matter how much we say about our product, there is absolutely nothing like actually letting writers try for themselves.
The most important benefit, though, for Hobie has been the quality of writers that belong to the group. We met some of them at last summer's conference, others via email correspondence, and now look forward to meeting even more at the 2010 conference. The bottom line for all Corporate Partners is "ink" and I think that POMA will prove to be a very valuable conduit to help us do this. The responsibility for exciting members about our product, following up etc. is totally on our shoulders, but POMA gives up the platform.
Thanks for your efforts and I look forward to continuing Hobie's involvement.

Had it not been for Money Line listings, I would not have found my current job at Sporting Classics magazine. I was traveling to Montana this summer with a friend, when we stopped in Kearney, NE for a night.
In a small pub, I checked the Money Line, saw the job opening and applied for it thinking it was a long shot, but worth a try. Next thing I know, I'm sitting here telling you this. Needless to say, POMA has benefited me greatly!

POMA generates income for me on an almost weekly basis, in a strange way.
Most members use Money Line as a job and freelance opportunity listing. I use it to generate editorial content ideas, especially for business/trade content buyers. Job listings offer tons of information about challenges faced by companies in our industry. I use those challenges as a basis to develop story ideas to pitch to editors/buyers. Thanks POMA for all you do!

"Like many POMA members, I wear a variety of hats. Part TV production, part public relations, part freelance writer, my job varies and I go where the day takes me. The associations I build, the contacts I make and the information I learn at POMA's Summer Business Conference helps me every step of the way. From negotiating fees for services Mossy Oak Productions may use, or setting fees my freelance efforts may earn, I lean on sessions and advice from mentors and peers at POMA.
When I'm brainstorming for new revenue ideas, I call upon the same, and when I'm shooting still photos to support my writing, POMA lessons weigh in again. I look forward to the conference each summer because, when you can do business with your friends, you know you're in the right place."

A POMA Biz Tip allowed me to recoup content that would have taken a monumental amount of time to recreate.
A few weeks ago POMA posted a Biz Tip on how to recover lost files. I printed that up and filed it here at my desk, knowing that chances were that I'd never need it. But I filed it anyway.
Today, I was answering questions for my "Ask Dr Dave About Whitetails" column for www.sportsmansguide.com, and somehow deleted that file from my disk. I had no backup (duh), and even worse, that file contained around 100 past questions that I've been saving to use for a new book I've just started.
Biz Tips to the rescue. In 20 minutes, I was good to go.
Thanks POMA and Biz Tip author PC World Contributing Editor Lincoln Spector!

POMA provides incredible opportunities, far exceeding any expectations I had for being a POMA member. POMA Money Line listings provide room to spawn new thinking, expand opportunities, explore life in a new facility or role, just great! Keep up the great work!

I was stuck in a rookie outdoor writer rut. I needed encouragement from my peers, guidance from leading experts, and a mentor who genuinely cared if I succeed or failed. So, I joined POMA. Being welcomed with a smile and handshake followed by the question "What can we do for you?" has changed my career. Within four weeks, I landed a regular column assignment and five feature assignments that resulted in a great paycheck. Thanks POMA for giving me the tools I needed to take my career to the next level.
