Euro 2016 is too close to miss. Even for us?
Romanian football has been in a bad shape for years, but, hey!, you can always look at the FIFA rankings and deny reality. You can also do that by looking at the standings In Group F. In truth, now it
looks is easier than ever to reach the final tournament, while the opposition in this qualifying campaign also did its best (or worst?) to let us top the group and manage an extremely favourable situation.
So, it's Hungary – Romania and a win against the neighbours will further lift some moods over here, a draw will be just fine, while a loss wouldn't be the end of the world. I'll leave the result to others and try to focus on what can and can't be expected of Iordanescu's team in Budapest.
What to expect:
- A defensive approach
Yes, the pressure is on the home team, yes, we could do with a draw, and yes, we don't have enough quality (and the mentality) to play an attacking game. But let's give some credit to Iordanescu, ok? We're talking about the guy who was keeping 7-8 men behind the ball when his players were called Popescu, Petrescu, Sabau, Dumitrescu or Hagi…
- A poor game
With Papp and Goian at the back, Hoban (and maybe Prepelita or another "destroyer") in front of the defence, keeping and passing the ball will be a problem. As always…
- A lot of prayers
Iordanescu did very well and got attention and help from above: Chiriches and Torje are healthy and ready to go for the first minute. Hopefully, God won't be busy doing other stuff or watching another game on Friday evening.
What not to expect:
- Budescu from the start
Public pressure paid off: Liga 1's hottest player, Budescu, finally got called up. Astra's number 10 can also expect to feature at some point, if things go bad on the pitch, but nothing more than that. And he'd better be bloody good too, if called upon!
- High pressing and defending
We lack the right players and approach for the job, even though Hungary's defensive players would make every effort worthwhile.
- Young players
There's not a single player younger than 21 in Romania's entire squad, so why would we expect such a thing? Especially now, when there's so much as stake! Sorry for this last point, clearly I was running out of ideas… The U21s are playing against Bulgaria in Targu Mures and when they'll be old enough, they'll be good enough for the senior team too, right? Or was it the other way around?
Romania's biggest football club? Of course, it's St…op!
Strange headline for a strange situation, which was a perfect fit though for Liga 1, the championship with the biggest percentage of club owners in trouble with the law. The league where public money is used in competition with private money, but both types enter the circuit of the sport "where you cannot make a profit" with this very purpose. But that is another, longer story. :)
Back to the one behind the headline: on Sunday evening, Romanian multiple (running and most likley future) champions had to take drastic measures, following a lost lawsuit. The name, the biggest name in Romanian club football, the European Cup winners from 1986, Hagi's former and beloved team, cannot be used
anymore for now without the approval of the former owner of Steaua Bucharest. The name was erased from the scoreboard of the stadium that hosted the 1-0 victory against CSMS Iasi. A square represented the current league leaders who are on another solitary run towards the title, while the name and the logo were erased from the players' shirts, the dugout and any other visible place it stood before a Romanian court reached a shocking, but fair decision.
Gigi Becali might have took over the famous club and its huge fan pool through some dodgy maneuvers, but after more than a decade of use the Ministery of Defence finally managed to throw back a punch. It might not be a knock-out, but it surely is a knock-down. It might have angered some fans, but there's a sense of justice behind it. Steaua's past, glorious, but often built through unsporting measures under the communist regime, came back to haunt the club now ran from behind bars by its owner, Becali, and sporting director, Stoica, both unable to fuel the type of massive scandal that was expected by such a bold call. They and those within the club are now in an extremely delicate situation. If they've took this measure in Liga 1 to avoid further punishment, they are now in a race against the clock to find a solution. No later than Thursday evening, Dynamo Kyiv is coming to Bucharest in the Europa League and I'm sure they (and UEFA) would surely like to know the name of the team they're playing against…
UPDATE: After a meeting that took place on Monday afternoon, Becali's club has been granted the right to use the name and the logo for the last two official matches of 2014. Negotiations are expected to take place at the start of next year, with the Ministry of Defense hoping to make Gigi Becali pay an important sum to continue to use the brand.
Ogararu will lose games as a coach, but should never lose our respect
Mihai Nesu's everyday life is a physical struggle after the horrific accident suffered years ago, but his intelligence and passion for football are still in one place. So, it's not pity what got him the job as a video analyst for Universitatea Cluj from the new coach in charge, George Ogararu. It's just something you can't find these days (actually, for decades) at his former club, Steaua Bucharest: true friendship and respect from an open-minded person in charge.
To both of them I sincerely wish the best of luck. And let's just secretly keep our fingers crossed for Universitatea Cluj, no matter the team we support. There's a spirit within that club strong enough not to be perverted by the promise of quick success brought to town in recent years by CFR, a spirit that sets this club apart and gestures like Ogararu's just fit right in…
A look at Hagi's struggles with the best Romanian football academy
Viitorul started its third consecutive season in the top flight, which is quite a feature considering the impressive number of youngsters promoted, but also the difficulties to survive in a league full of clubs ready to throw everything into a fight that usually has one true victim: the future of Romanian football.
Hagi entered this fight with his best kids and intentions, but soon realized all his work and huge investment – done mostly by himself – can go to waste, so Viitorul has now linked to its name some shocking, yet very useful results obtained at the very end of the previous two Liga 1 campaigns.
It was not pretty to watch and it surely didn't send the right signals not only within the club, but also outside of it. But what father wouldn't try everything to protect his children?
The real problem, in my opinion, is not that Hagi felt the need to intervene, as he does now, by taking an active role in the technical staff of his own club, is that he failed to address some important issues, which regard both the Academy's activity and the senior team's results.
1. No real solution for players who turn 19.
The youth competitions – which Hagi's Academy dominate for years – involve only players up to 19 years old. Once the youngsters reach this critical age in their development, there's no Under 21 or Reserve League games waiting for them. Hagi probably hoped to address that when he supported Gheorghe Popescu's candidacy, but the former Barcelona captain ended the race in jail, not in the Romanian Football Federation's best office.
There was no plan B. There are no partner-clubs in the second division, there are no friendly relations with other Liga 1 clubs, where most of his 19 years old, champions at youth level, could have a chance to take the normal step towards senior football. Viitorul is the only senior club to aspire to and it simply cannot look after and promote every generation of new players that comes out of the academy each year.
2. Too much confidence in the Academy's potential to promote itself.
Initially, Hagi didn't want a club in the tip flight, but was forced to push for promotion, as he felt that the second division is not a glamorous shopping avenue for interesting clubs, not even Romanian 1st division teams. He had to stop the investment in the training facilities near Constanta to be able to finance the club, but I am not sure that things are that much better. A look at some of the top sales done so far? Chitu to Valenciennes (failed to adjust, now returned to Romania), Balasa to Roma (loaned in Serie B), Iancu to Steaua (failed to impress)… Not very good advertising, is it?
3. Poor marketing and reluctance to work with agents.
Probably Hagi relies on his name, on the impressive number of youth internationals (the U21 just lost 0-8 to Germany…) and surely lacks in his club structure the people who can attract and keep alive the little interest of foreign clubs. On the other hand, he also ignores the good (which often comes with some bad, but not always!) that can be done by agents who know how to sell players.
I'll offer one example I've been watching from a distance: Adrian Stefanescu, a Romanian agent who has very good links with top UK based clubs, including Manchester City, but who does some really good work in getting very young Romanian players in cont(r)act and with Premier League and Championship clubs. Atletico Arad, who does some good work at youth level, are lucky and also clever to have him as partner…
4. Poor selection of first team coaches
Viitorul promoted under the guidance of Catalin Anghel, an unknown, young coach, who has left the club after the first year in the top flight. His choice looked strange in the first place and it set a pattern Hagi hasn't abandoned. Same goes for Bogdan Vintila, former keeper and colleague of the owner, who was followed and now follows after Bogdan Stelea, whose brief spell in charge means that Hagi didn't really had to appoint himself in a technical role a couple of weeks ago. My feeling is that he was already making use of those prerogatives…
Anyway, having young, unexperienced and not so strict coaches in charge of a young and unexperienced team might not be the best idea, but until proven wrong, it seems like the only and the best idea.
5. Belief in wasted talents
Viitorul works every day with something than can be seen, felt in a player, but that cannot always be transformed into quality. It's a process that involved hundreds of players since the academy opened its doors, thousands of hours spent on the pitch, millions of Euros invested and a bunch of subjective factors that can influence the outcome and make the work at youth level such a massive task which most of Romanian clubs simply refuse to undertake anymore.
Why Viitorul, who produces talent in quantities way over the senior team's needs, decides every once in a while to sign players who proved at every level that they couldn't turn themselves into quality professional players is simply beyond me. But, normally, it's strictly linked with Hagi who – proved it also as a coach – really believes in his instincts (I cannot call stubborn a man I can't stop admiring). Signing players like Alibec and Daminuta, whose real talent is to throw away the fantastic opportunities to make a huge career in football, made no sense to me. If Daminuta came on a free and, in theory, might allow Viitorul to make some money, Alibec was signed on loan from Inter, offered the place deserved by one of Viitorul's kids, and made a mess of it once again. Now he's warming the bench of Astra Giurgiu, after his probably last loan spell in Serie A, with Bologna.
Trying to find a logic in these signings? Maybe Hagi wanted to show his Academy graduates how they must not look like in 2-3 years time. Full of tattoos and full of themselves, with some money in the bank, a flashy car & tarty girl at their disposal. But is that such a bad profile for a 17-18 years olds whose family education stopped at 13-14, when they left home to join the Academy and spent his teenage years among boys, going from training to school and back?
They might have all dreamt at one point to become the new Hagi, but haven't we all? :)
Rule number 1 in Romanian football: you don't mess with the owner!
Romania's defense held out in Athens against Greece, with Gabriel Tamas at right back, a desperate, yet effective solution. Normally, we should have seen there Alexandru Matel, the 24 years old who featured in both play-off games against Greece last November, when Romania missed out on a place at the World Cup, who went on to finish another solid season with Astra Giurgiu, winning the Romanian Cup and finishing the league in second place.
Don't look him up in Astra's team that managed to take out Slovan Liberec and OL on its way to the Europa League group stage! You won't find him in the starting line-ups, not even on the bench. You can find him in exile though, training on his own, twice a day, on the pitch of Astra's abandoned stadium from Ploiesti. He'll be there until next summer, waiting for the last year of his contract to run out, watching international games go by at a perfect age to play and impress.
He's 24, fully fit, but after just over 100 games for Astra, still naive enough to think that Ioan Niculae, a rich guy who likes to own business and people, would have said: "well, it's no problem if you don't want to renew your deal, my team can still do with the best Romanian right back for another year!". Well, the problem with most of the wealthy guys is that they rarely regard somebody else indispensable, valuable or at least worthy of respect. Other than themselves, that is…
Well, enough bad things about the owner. With all his faults, according to his version of events, he did meet the exact terms requested by Matel's agent for a contract extension this summer. A scenario Matel didn't feel the need to deny, which might just make it real. He prefers to pose as the victim, but it would have been a more convincing picture if he didn't negotiate for a new deal in the first place. And Niculae, as any other rich guy out there, has the cash to surprise you. Usually, in a positive way. At times, in ways you and your agent might dislike. Because in a story that affects not only Matel, but more people and teams, there's more than just one bad guy involved this time around…
Becali stays behind bars, but keeps Steaua as his prisoner
The champions have started in style. No worries in Liga 1, where Claudiu Keseru managed to score six in one game (in theory, Pandurii is one of the decent clubs, but in practice they often try not to upset a top business partner like Steaua) and very few teams will be able to pose a real threat during the current campaign. On the European stage, all going as planned so far and the red and blue outfit are 90 minutes away from another profitable presence in the Champions League group stage, having already a one goal advantage over Ludogorets, thanks to their top performer, Alexandru Chipciu.
So, results are here right away, in spite of the lack of experience of Costel Galca, money isn't a problem, the fans are behind the team (all over the country). All seems well, especially as in a dozen lines I didn't mention Gigi Becali. But, oops!, the name is here now, yet the man is still behind bars (alongside his right hand Mihai Stoica), and the problem that could affect Steaua's promising season arises.
Not only Becali took out of the club's account a big chunk of the over 10 millions euros profit registered last season, but he also kept a firm grip on the club, seriously restricting Steaua's movement on the transfer market, where important departures (past or imminent – Tanase and Latovlevici have been repeatedly linked with foreign clubs) need(ed) to be adressed.
The problem is that the club's structure is poor, it also only exists to approve and execute the owner's wishes and Steaua's view of the market is as narrow as the space between two bars. Without Stoica, there's nobody both informed and confident enough to take an unknown name to Becali, so the club's recent targets have been only current or past Liga 1 players.
Of the team that battled it out with the likes of Chelsea or Schalke, a handful of key players are gone. With Tatarusanu (Fiorentina), Chiriches (Tottenham), Gardos (Southampton), Bourceanu (Trabzonspor) and Pintilii (Al Hilal), the very backbone of the team was extracted and, in spite of all the income, Steaua failed to add players with either similar quality or at least potential. But the reason isn't just the reluctance to spend some money. In fact, the Bucharest outfit went after players of proven value, but in the only league Becali knew: the Romanian first division. A league that had already offered its best products to the club in recent years, a league that struggles to produce new talent at a good rate.
That's why Steaua signed Arlauskis (former league winner with Unirea Urziceni), Luchin (former Dinamo Bucharest player, signed from Botev Plovdiv), Breeveld (Pandurii) and Lemnaru (Universitatea Cluj, a player Galca doesn't even like). And that is the only reason why the club makes no secret in its intention to bring back to Liga 1 Jeremy Bokila, a striker who impressed with Petrolul, before moving to Terek Groznii. He's the main and last target once/if the Champions League group stage is reached, although he's been a flop in Russia and, more importantly, Terek can afford to speculate Steaua's desperate approach and ask for a lot of money (approx 2 million euros) for a fringe player.
Steaua is definitely weaker than last season, although Galca does some good work on the training pitch, yet the downfall of the solid team lead to important success by Laurentiu Reghecampf might not catch the eye that quickly. The group stage of the Champions League is only 90 minutes away, while the route to another league title remains accessible. A defeat (with the wrong scoreline) in Bulgaria could expose though the fact that Becali was wrong to take away from his club exactly what he's missing the most: the freedom. The freedom to move, to dare, to act.

Odell Mountain Standard Reserve 2009(RETIRED)
RATINGS: 89 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.64 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 255 ABV: 8.5%
This is more than a limited edition offering. Its an enigma in liquid form. At first it looks like a deep mahogany ale, then you take the first sip and notice its distinct hoppy character. We begin with a ridiculous amount of Cascade and Chinook hop varietals from Western Colorado and bring out their flavor with the hop back. Then we double dry hop for even more of that aroma you love. The result is an unforgettable beer from the forgotten time.

Tell me, what characters do you think Raiden can compete with in the neutral game without resorting to retarded NJPs?
And it still doesn't matter, the advantage off of a d4 is a much greater reward than his slow F4.
It doesn't really solve his problem either.
I could probably count the amount of times I've blocked a f2 from Nivek on my fingers, cause I'm so busy hammering d4 all match.

A New Web Exhibition Celebrates the Dallas Built by Herbert Miller Greene
Directly across from Unfair Park HQ sits the original Parkland Hospital, now home to Crow Holdings after an extensive redo that modernized the building without desecrating it; Herbert Miller Greene, the architect who designed and built Parkland in 1913 with partner James P. Hubbell, would still recognize the building, among the few Dallas structures from that era not replaced by a parking lot. The same cannot be said for another of Greene's building: the former YWCA boarding house on Haskell Avenue, torn down in January 2007 only days after preservationists and city officials learned of its scheduled demolition.
From the late 1800s through the early part of the 20th century, Greene's work, alone and with Hubbell, defined much of Dallas; he's responsible in part for the Dallas News building erected in 1897, the Titche-Goettinger Company store building, Neiman Marcus' downtown HQ, the first Temple Emanu-El and the Dallas Scottish Rite Cathedral, among others. And now, courtesy the Architecture and Planning Library at The University of Texas at Austin, you can dig a little further into Greene and Dallas's past: The school has created an extensive Web site, "The Architectural Legacy of Herbert Miller Greene," featuring, among other things,139 images featuring 42 projects for which Greene was responsible in Dallas and throughout the state, including on the UT campus. --Robert Wilonsky

Netflix orders Season 3 of "House of Cards" hit show
February 5, 2014 - 18:25 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - "House of Cards" season 2 is yet to premiere, but Netflix has commissioned a third season of the series. A representative for the company confirms the early renewal soon after star Robin Wright Penn spilled the beans, AceShowbiz reported.
On Tuesday, February 4, the Claire Underwood depicter told reporters when asked if she wanted to continue taking on the role which earned her a Golden Globe Award, "Sure, bring it on." She added, "We start shooting season 3 soon," but claimed that she had not seen scripts beyond season 2.
"House of Cards" season 2 will be released in its entirety on February 14 on Netflix. Kevin Spacey reprises his role as Frank Underwood who, in the second installment, has masterfully maneuvered his way into the Vice Presidency, but his ascension faces threats on all fronts.
Meanwhile, investigative reporter Zoe Barnes (Kate Mara) is inching closer to the truth about Frank and Peter Russo (Corey Stoll) and will stop at nothing to break the story. And Frank's wife Claire, the newly appointed Second Lady, must deal with the bright glare of the spotlight and how the intense scrutiny eats away at their once private existence.
Top stories
Some of the many artists on exhibit include Kevork Mourad and three generations of Elibekian family painters.

Disturbed's "Prayer," System of a Down's "Spiders" and Halestorm's "I Miss the Misery" will be among the songs.
The festival will screen three of his films: Exotica, The Sweet Hereafter, and Ararat, a drama about the Armenian Genocide.

Stylish Leather Bench
My husband and I are very happy with this modern leather bench. We use it in our mud room for taking off/putting on our shoes. We also store our shoes underneath. Color and quality are excellent, the leather is durable and I don't foresee it ripping easily, which is a plus. Also easy to assemble. I'm only giving it four stars instead of five because the frame of the bench has screws sticking out from the bottom and did not come with any kind of caps to protect the floor from scratches. We had to buy felt pads to stick under the corners of the frame and we use a rug as well. Overall, however, very pleased with this stylish leather bench.Read More
Love it!
I was looking for something sleek to go on the other side of a coffee table that didn't look bulky. This was absolutely perfect. Easy to assemble.Read More
Beautiful Bench
We purchased this bench for our entry way, we have the matching ottoman in our living room. We love both, they are high quality and very nice looking.Read More
Great Bench!
This bench was exactly what we needed and works very well with our furniture. We actually use it as an ottoman/coffee table with a tray and love the look of it. I'd say the quality is better than what you pay for, so that is a win. Is it the best quality leather? No, but if you want that, you'll have to pay for it. The leather almost doesn't look like leather due to the patina and its thickness (or thinness) but it's acceptable at this price point and will be fine for most people who are obviously here bc of budgetary purposes. Durability: Haven't had it for too long but I think it will last for at least a few years and that will be plenty of time for me to think it was worth the price. We aren't rough on our furniture though, so hopefully it will last much longer.Read More
awesome bench!!
Just got this bench and I put it together in about an hour (distracted by my TV shows:) but it's actually very easy although the allen key is bit of a pain. The holes lined up nicely but two of the screws would not really take, not necessary because the rest the the screws and washers went in and the bench is very sturdy. I love the modern look, yet still a bit traditional with the tufting. The bonded leather is a beautiful saddle brown, as the description says. It does not look cheap at all but it has a slight odor that should dissipate within a few days. the metal legs are a dark grayish but looks a bit brown as well, I guess due to lighting in the room. this works perfectly for me since I'm using this with a large farm table and brown metal chairs I purchased on this site as well. The bench will sit two adults comfortably and three children, I love the size! The cushion seems too firm right now but i'm sure it'll soften up with everyday use. I'm glad I purchased this, the price was great , the quality is great and I highly recommend.Read More
Great bench
This is a beautiful piece. Color of the brown on my screen was true to the color of the bench. I would have like a more subltle Tan, it's a more warm golden brown tone. It's heavy and well made. For bonded leather its a good look. It a little shiny but not cheap looking. I would recommend this product!Read More
It is Perfect.
The bench looks good at the foot of my bed. I have Maple wood furniture and the bench works well.Read More
The bench is working out well in my foyer. There are six screws attaching the bench to its base, and only 5 would good in; the other one wouldn't line up. It seems sturdy with just the five. I feel like it was a bargain!Read More
Questions & Answers
I like the color and construction of the bench with the metal frame.
color and size should be perfect in my space.
We ordered two of these to see how they performed and check the durability and we loved them. They are very sturdy and allow for extra customer seating in our lobby and waiting area.
needed an ottoman that was large scale but still feel airy and not so heavy- like the mix of leather and metal- really versatile in a number of interiors-
Color & Stlye
color of the fake leather and steel frame

Color and style are perfect for teenage son's room and the price was great.
Simple and stylish for a fair price!
Liked the style and color
We are looking for something that does not overpower a small living room area.
My wife picked this one.
Loved the industrial modern look, the color worked for my space, and it had multiple good customer reviews.
I like neutral tones.
Simple lines, nice leather color and size fits my space
Is there anything on the metal frame to prevent it from scratching wooden floors?
Hello nholt2012, yes, this bench has rubber on the bottom to keep it from scratching the wooden floors. Thank you for shopping with us!
No. We use it as a coffee table and placed the bench on a rug. Due to the dimples, we use a tray to hold drinks stable. Go to Lowes to get adhesive cushions to protect your floor.
Will this hold up to a person sitting on it that weighs 250 pounds
It should
I don't know. I weight 292 pounds so I weight 292 pounds so I re-enforced my bench with plywood while I was putting it together.
What is bonded leather?
Bonded leather is made from leather that is "left over" or not in its original form, pressed together and adhered to other leather via a bonding agent. This type of leather, sometimes referred to as reconstituted leather, is an alternative to what is known as genuine leather, which represents whole pieces of animal hide.
does this bench come in other colors?
We do not carry this item in any other color options.
what is the weight limit on this bench? are there buttoms in the tufts?
yes there are buttons in the tufts. not sure of the weight limit.
Benches like these typically hold up to 250 pounds.

My GTT sucked. I spent the whole 2 hours varying between about to throw up and about to pass out. Needle one - missed the vein, use the other arm, needle 2 success in the first arm, needle three back in arm 2 - she used the same F'ing vein!!! It hurt SO bad that I cried. I don't remember ever crying during blood tests before but i could not stop - my god it hurt. I came home and decided to take the day off. I felt awful. DH brought me a kebab for lunch which helped - get some good food into me! Was nice to have a nanna nap this afternoon anyway. I'm not looking forward to the 28 week GTT.... but I don't remember having the 2 hour one last time either.
Posted 08 November 2012 - 10:58 PM
So glad to hear everyone's scans have been going really well. How exciting!!
Well I was hospitalised on Saturday, my morning sickness is so bad I became severely dehydrated and started losing my vision. Not fun at all. But bub is fine and after lots of fluids and medications I am feeling a little better. I can keep water down now at least and the last two days even managed a few meals
Oh and a quick intro of myself (forget if I have done one), I'm 21, from Victoria, engaged to my beautiful man (highschool sweethearts and will celebrate 5 years together around bubba's EDD). My son Leo is nearly 17 months and still breastfeeding/comfort nursing (very draining)
Posted 09 November 2012 - 07:17 AM
Sarkasm - that sounds horrible, I'm really not looking forward to mine. I have one vein that nurses like to use and each time it is getting more and more painful.
I'm feeling "less pregnant" now than for the 14 weeks previous! Apart from itchy, stretching skin and a growing belly I'm starting to feel like myself, getting some energy back (went two days in a row with out an afternoon disco nap! Success!) and am finding I can exercise without feeling like I want to fall asleep standing up. My eating has also gone back to normal (apart from chicken. Chicken tastes weird.).

I was hospitalized yesterday for hg, couldn't stop vomiting
Posted 09 November 2012 - 10:11 AM
I'll claim boobies!
Sorry, I've been MIA - well, far too slack to post.
I'm so pleased to read about everyone's scans.
Oh sarkazm, so sorry you had such an awful experience with your GTT. I had the 'pleasure' of doing the GTT at 10 weeks being prediabetic prior to being pregnant - now I officially have gestational diabetes and get to follow a strict diet for the remainder of my pregnancy, oh joy
Having done IVF and been the proverbial pin cushion, I've discovered that there are pathology people who can properly collect blood and those who can't. Your collector was a definite 'can't' - seriously hope your next GTT will be a far less painful experience.
MadelineCharlotte, RealityBites - I'm sorry your ms/hg has gotten to the point where you have needed to go to hospital. Hope it provided some much needed relief.
Madeline - awww, I love hearing stories about people who marry their high school sweethearts I married my uni sweetheart - met at 18 and we're still together nearly 20 years later.
newseason - I think I'm in denial about my bump - I'm fobbing it off as an extra layer of fat rather than baby!
dotdash - me too! I don't feel pregnant anymore. MS has all but gone, I've gone back to the gym (yay!) - I just feel like a diabetic who has to monitor her blood sugar levels throughout the day and follow a low carb diet. I've basically lost interest in my actual pregnancy, but all I'm thinking about is life with 3 of us and how it will be
AFM - just plodding along, funny thing was that as soon as I had my 12 week NT scan and got back the good results, my mind has totally relaxed - I was anxious in the first trimester, basically taking it one week at a time, and now, hardly a care in the world - dunno if this is good or bad.
I spent the whole of Wednesday in hospital with gastro - I'm one of those people who just can't stop vomiting when they get it. Woke up 3.30am Wednesday feeling very ill, started vomiting and kept vomiting every 10 minutes. DH rang the nurse-on-call service who said go to ED if I can't handle the vomiting, otherwise see a GP within 4 hours. Ended up going to the ED and was very lucky that they took me in straight away. Hooked up on IV fluids and anti-nausea meds. I only went to ED because I was worried about the baby and getting dehydrated, otherwise, I would have just stayed at home and rode it out which I have done previously. It wasn't until I was in hospital that I realised that in the previous gastro episodes I've had, I've virtually driven myself into the ground - I didn't think that severe vomiting and having the runs is worthy of a trip to the ED
Off to see my OB this afternoon where I get to break the news to him that I'm off to the Maldives in Jan - anyone else going on a babymoon??
Posted 09 November 2012 - 10:55 AM
Hi ladies,
Been a bit since I posted... Great to see so many positive scans and progress All good over here, we had a great scan, baby has all it's bits, low risk results (NT).
Does anyone else have an anterior placenta? I do atm (it could move later), but I'm wondering if it's what's causing my terrible back pain
Clothes: Anyone looking for some boho, comfy maternity clothes, I recently bought 4 maxis from http://www.fillyboomaternity.com/c/4002702...ty-clothes.html
'Let's be together' (black) and 'The story of' (navy/white stripe) are my favs! I team them with fluoro thin belts, long necklaces, light crocheted vests/boleros, and some thongs (it is Summer in QLD after all ).
TV: I've also downloaded 3 seasons of One Born Every Minute and have been watching each night. I end up in "happy" tears almost every episode
Posted 09 November 2012 - 12:25 PM
sarkazm - what a horrible experience! Hopefully next time you get someone who is better at inserting needles.
realitybites & madeleinecharlotte & scruff1010 - your poor things. I hope you start feeling better soon.
jenganoosh - I don't have an anterior placenta this time but I did with my first pregnancy. It didn't cause me backache but definately meant I felt baby movement much later and it wasn't all that frequent. At the beginning of my labour DD was posterior (don't know if that was because of an anterior placenta or not) which meant I had awful backache during labour (but that eased up a lot when I got into the bath).
Posted 09 November 2012 - 02:05 PM
Sarkazm76 - sorry to hear about your awful GTT. I had one at 10 weeks and my ob said the standard has changed and all of the pregnancy ones are now the 2hour ones. I nearly vomitted at the 10 week one as I still had MS. I had GD with DD so am basically on the diet now and have to have a GTT every 4-6 weeks.
i feel like i need a day off. DD is teething and DS has been really bad at kinder today, I just want DH to come home and take over-........argh
Posted 09 November 2012 - 06:37 PM
Finally had our scan today. Everything looks good but the risk for DS is currently 1:290 which is apparently high risk (but better than the straight age related risk of 1:110). The doctor looking after me today talked me through the results and said that if they were anything over 300 we would have been low risk and now we need to decide if we have further testing or not. She did say that the scan looked good and the neck measure was excellent.
Leaning towards not doing further testing as it seems like the risk is still pretty low. I have the added dilemma of not knowing what I would do if the testing came back as an absolute sure thing for D/S, I would be very doubtful if I would do anything except arm myself with knowledge.
As I said, not too worried but it is just one extra thing to think about after the last 13 weeks and to top it all off I still have pretty bad morning sickness. Feeling very sorry for myself!
Have the OB appointment next week so will ask him about it then. Good to see all the other results and I envy those who are back to feeling normal!

Thanks, that is a fab site, bookmarked!
I am also a One Born Every Minute tragic
Scutterbug - Oh you poor thing, not news you need to hear! A good friend of mine had similar odds with her 2nd child and had an amnio and said it was horrible. When her 3rd came back with similar odds she didn't do the amnio. They are both fine. I know that's not definitive science but I guess with these things we have to go with our guts.
Posted 09 November 2012 - 09:03 PM
Jenganoosh, what site do you download one born every minute? I've just starting to get into it. Have been trying to get hubby to watch an episode with me but he's holding off until its closer to our reality
Posted 10 November 2012 - 06:05 AM
I had my appointment and my results have come back at 1/7000, so I'm very happy with that. Saw bub sucking fingers and got a pic so I will try to post it.
ATM I have been emotional, wanting to cry. I didn't have any emotional issues 1st trimester and I'm sure they should be easing now in 2nd so I guess I'm just a little behind.
I'm beginning to think I may be feeling bub move a little...
Nurse and OB asked if I am yet, so I know it's very possible. I cannot hide my bump any longer, so I don't even try to. Sleep is becoming an issue again, waking and can't get back to it. It's frustrating listening to hubby sleeping away whilst ur tossing and turning.
Have a lovely weekend ladies.
Posted 10 November 2012 - 09:29 AM
Morning All.
Jenganoosh - i love that site, thanks for the link
Newseason - try torrent day, they seem to have everything on there
Scutterbug - how stressful for you, im sure you will make the right decision on whether to further test or not.
Mumfor 3- great result, happy for you
Sorry to all those ladies still feeling the effects of MS/HG fx it leaves town soon.
AFM - still plodding along, NT scan wednesday so fx all is ok.
Started telling family this weekend as big get together today so wanted it out in open as my lack of drinking and the size of my BB's is a dead giveaway. (i didnt think they were that big until this week, they are huge -for me anyway)
my Nana cried when i told her last night and just got msg off an aunty saying my cousin aged 9 squealed when she told her ... so excited that it is out in the open
DH is being a pill - i know he is happy and excited deep down would just be nice if he looked slightly happy or excited or wanted to talk about bub every now and then.
Has been an emotional week though had my other grandmothers funeral wednesday and he couldnt come due to exam which i was fine with ... so giving him the benefit of the doubt at the moment

Hi ladies, have been reading along since my first post a few weeks back but wanted to wait til 12 wk scan to get more active, and I was getting stressed reading about the losses in the group, particularly the later ones. But sadly i'm now one of those losses too. Had some pretty serious spotting yesterday and managed to get an emergency scan yesterday arvo (was booked in for 12 wk scan next week). Unfortunately there was no heartbeat or movement, and baby was measuring the size of a 9.5wk old. Will have follow up bloodtests to confirm HCG levels are decreasing etc, but hopefully it'll all just happen naturally.
Anyway, just wanted to wish you all the best of luck with your pregnancies and the births that will follow. It's an amazing journey
Take care,
Posted 10 November 2012 - 01:08 PM

Squizzy so sorry this is happening. Look after yourself and hope that you are back in a dig group very soon.
Have the OB appointment tomorrow and after sitting with my less than impressive NT results for a couple of days I have come to the conclusion that even if it is offered I won't be doing any further testing.
This was such a surprise and a pretty much a miracle it even happened at all, whatever will be will be and I am going to (blindly) assume that everything will turn out for the best regardless of what happens. I think I will ask the OB for an extra scan at around 16 weeks to check the nasal bone and the rest of the anatomy just so I know as early as possible what we are in for. Should be an interesting conversation as this is the first time that I will meet him!
Morning sickness still sucky but at least have cut down the vomiting to only a couple of times a day so it is on the improve. Told our six year old today who in turn told me as long as I can keep it out of her room and I can promise it won't be cuter than she was she is excited to be a big sister!

Miami-Based Burger King Costs Taxpayer $356M a Year Due to Low Employee Pay
Burger King is one of the largest companies with global headquarters in Miami-Dade. Which is, in theory, great for the local economy, but BK's practice of paying its restaurant employees low wages may not be so great for the American economy. A new study estimates that Burger King employees might cost taxpayers $356 million a year.
The report, which breaks down the cost of low-income fast-food workers to public assistance projects by chain, comes from the National Employment Law Project. A significant portion of fast-food workers must rely on government assistance to supplement their low income.
"While payroll data for individual fast-food companies is not publicly available, we estimate that the low-wage business model at the ten largest fast-food companies in the United States costs taxpayers more than $3.8 billion each year," the report states.
Of that amount, $356 million comes from Burger King employees, behind only Subway, Yum! Brands (Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut), and McDonald's. Burger King employs about 208,307 frontline fast-food workers across the country.
The report comes as a nationwide campaign to raise the wages of fast-food workers intensifies.
