As opposed to our favorite songs, or songs we'd like to think define our listening habits, taking a look at what a person actually listens to can be far more revealing. With that in mind, every so often we'll ask an artist to take a look at the most-played songs in their iTunes libraries and share with us the results. We do this on the honor system, and we ask our subjects to share a few words about each song.
Tom Burns
With irrepressible pop tendencies like The Shins, perky harmonies like our very own Hoot Hoots (see "Lions" here), and a synthy backbone that elevates their music beyond simple hook-driven jingling, Nashville's The Features have a sound any indie rocker would love. And love they have--they're widely embraced across the pond, have a loyal following in their native South--and attention Chris Kornelis: they're signed to Serpents and Snakes, a Kings of Leon imprint--but since forming in 1994, the group has yet to spring from these shadows to a further-reaching fan base.
Things appear to be changing with the release of the band's third album, last year's Wilderness, a boisterous, indie-meets-garage rock affair guided by frontman Matt Pelham's assertive (even Caleb Followill-y) vocals that's been getting high marks from every rag from Paste to Spin. Here, drummer Rollum Haas (above left) shares the top ten songs in heavy rotation on his iTunes and lends further insight into the band's complex trove of influences.
The Features play Chop Suey tonight with Vanaprasta and The Good Hurt. 8 p.m. $10.
1. "On Your Own Again," Scott Walker: I feel like his albums are all spotty but when he's on it's amazing. His originals usually end up being my favorites.
2. "Dancing With The Moonlit Knight," Genesis: Selling England By The Pound is my favorite record of theirs top to bottom. Being a musician into prog rock kind of makes you feel the same way as being an avid Star Trek fan in middle school. I know that feeling.
3. "Stop It," Pylon: Vanessa [Briscoe] is one of my favorite vocalists from that era. So much neat music like Pylon, DBs, R.E.M., B-52s, etc, came out of the South at that time.
4. "Mother Of Pearl," Roxy Music: Probably my favorite Roxy song. There's no traditional arrangement to it. Just an intro where [Brian] Ferry has a weird dialogue with himself and a verse that builds gradually.
5. "Poor Moon," Canned Heat: Love song to the moon/hippie environmental message. Good stuff.
6. "Skipping," Associates: They seem to be a love it or hate it band, like Rush. I've never heard anything else like it.
7. "The Chauffeur," Duran Duran: They're the first band I got really into. They also led me to Roxy Music which led me to a lot of other good music.
8. "The Classical," The Fall: This song encapsulates everything I think is good about The Fall.
9. "Nothingface," Voivod: I've just started listening to them. It has everything I like about metal, science fiction, and prog rock. It's pretty over the top. A lot of the artwork is awesome. It's like he never changed the things he drew since 4th grade, he just got amazingly good at it.
10. "Hero," Neu!: I think talking about who did what first in music can be a little silly. Like did Sabbath invent metal, who invented punk, etc. I do think this song is pretty ahead of the curve though.

Trouble in Spice World; McCormick Faces Changing Demographics, Changing Tastes
Published: February 20, 1998
(Page 2 of 2)
''Everything imaginable has happened to this company,'' says John M. McMillin, an analyst with Prudential Securities, who grudgingly raised the stock to a ''buy'' recommendation a few months ago when slotting fees started to deflate, but continues to fret about its long-term sales prospects.
For most of its existence, this has been a company run on genteel principles that include bringing the business to a halt several times a year for events like oyster roasts and golf tournaments. Employees also own 68 percent of the stock -- this is not a family-controlled company -- and the company made Fortune's list of the country's best places to work.
Now, Mr. Lawless said, McCormick has responded to events of the last few years by becoming ''more focused and more aggressive.'' Some underperforming assets, like a garlic company in California and another property in Egypt, have been sold. Stock repurchasing has reclaimed 7.5 million shares over the last year, with 2.5 million more expected by the end of 1998. The company also pared its debt substantially. A new focus on making sure that net operating profit is well above the cost of capital is supposed to calm investors, many of whom are pension fund managers.
The slide seems to have been stopped, at least for now. Last year's earnings were $1.30 a share, up from 52 cents in 1996, a year loaded with unusual restructuring expenses, and are expected to rise 12 percent more this year. ''We're back to a normal competition,'' Mr. Lawless said in an interview in his office, where he keeps a boomerang commemorating McCormick's net income last year ($95 million at the time of the boomerang's inscription, but $98.4 million according to the annual report) versus Burns, Philp's (a loss of $173 million (Australian), or $116.8 million (United States), as of June 30). [The stock price has risen modestly, closing at $29.8125 Thursday, compared with roughly $24 a year ago.]
A big factor, of course, was that Burns, Philp ran into trouble. The company, based in Sydney, is overhauling itself after two years of heavy losses. A proposed sale of the company to a group of its own executives fell through in November, but speculation rages about other potential buyers, including leviathans on the order of Unilever. Mr. Lawless says he will welcome such competition, ''from a rational competitor.''
Meanwhile, McCormick is betting heavily on industrial sales, which have been growing at double-digit rates but have smaller profit margins than spices sold at retail. About 40 percent of the business is industrial sales, from flavorings for products to packaged gravies for restaurant or food-service chefs, and Mr. Lawless wants that to grow to 50 percent or more.
McCormick has come up with the secret formulas for a number of products from companies like Pepsico. A recent tour of the scent-heavy flavorings lab in nearby Hunt Valley found a box of French Toast Crunch by General Mills displayed on one counter top.
''If it has my flavor in it, I buy it,'' said Dennis Kucharczyk, a senior flavor chemist. ''That's my ego trip. Seeing your product national -- that's why we do this.''
Without Burns, Philp snapping at its heels, McCormick has been able to reduce by nearly half the shelf-space fees paid to grocery stores. In 1995, the company paid out $200 million in such fees. ''Now it's about $120 million, and we're comfortable with that,'' Mr. Lawless said.
Selling McCormick products in discount stores, once snubbed, is now a real possibility, Mr. McCormick said. The company is also looking for growth from abroad. China is a particular target.
Despite a long-held custom of promoting from within, McCormick has made some recent hires from among the food industry's giants, including a new director of research and development, Hamed Faridi, who spent 14 years at Nabisco. The company says it is committed to staying in the herb and spice business, and will not be producing crackers or cookies to help increase demand for its core business. But do not rule out acquisitions of other kinds. ''People say we're an herbs-and-spices company,'' said Mr. Lawless, an earnest Canadian. ''But I say we're a flavoring company.'' One product he has an eye on is A-1 steak sauce, now owned by Nabisco.
But whatever the changes, the caution with which McCormick has traditionally done business seems likely to continue. Recently someone suggested that the company might want to jump on the bandwagon that had formed around the British singing group the Spice Girls and their movie, ''Spice World.'' Maybe that could prompt people -- teen-agers, their parents, music fans of all ages -- to take more interest in McCormick.
''There were lots of discussions about 'Should we align with the Spice Girls?' '' Mr. Lawless said. In the end, he gave it the thumbs down.

D1); Jerry Richardson prepares tarragon at a McCormick plant. (Marty Katz for The New York Times)(pg. D5) Charts: ''Spice Wars'' McCormick & Company is the biggest single seller of spices, but it has been slow to adjust to changes in the consumer market. Here are figures for the major sellers, including sales of spices, seasonings, peppers and different varieties of salt. Charts show sales for McCormick, Burns Philp, supermarket brands, bulk and other for the years 1994 through 1997. McCORMICK -- Fought off a challenge from Burns, Philp, but growth has been elusive. BURNS, PHILP -- Its costly war with McCormick brought it close to bankruptcy; it is trying to regroup. SUPERMARKET BRANDS -- A popular alternative to name brands, but growth is flat. BULK AND OTHER -- These sellers have been better at fulfilling Americans' changing appetite for spices. (Source: Information Resources Inc.)(pg. D1)

Ijarna was an inhabitant of Deep Space 9.
In 2372, he was assaulted by his wife following an incident of public lewdness on the Promenade. The night of the reported assault, Odo had caught the two "misbehaving" behind the information kiosk on the second level.
Odo briefed the incident the following Tuesday with Kira Nerys during their weekly review of the criminal activity report. Kira wondered why Ijarna still stayed with his wife, as that was not the first time she had assaulted him - a question she recanted upon learning of the kiosk incident. (DS9: "Crossfire")

What can I do if I think my mother-in-law's filthy house is a danger to our baby?
My mother-in-law's house is dusty, dirty and unsanitary. The septic system can't handle paper waste, so she keeps a small, open-topped wastebasket next to the toilet for used toilet paper and feminine products. It often goes un-emptied for days or even a week. She's a hoarder, so the place is full of old newspapers and junk. I don't want to spend the holidays caring for our baby in this environment, but my husband says we'll hurt his mom's feelings if we stay in a hotel. What can I do?

...and I still fear that the day will come when my husband says we arw going there I dont want to upset anyone or hurt their feelings but mil is obviously a drunk and mentally unstable and their house a health hazard, I moved to the other side of the world when I met mt husband so I have no family here and its so hard. On top of all this my husbands family are all rude to me and ignores everything I sa. i feel invisible and very alone in this!!!posted 05/06/2015 by annapetz
Well...imagine my shock and horrot when the family around the table burst out laghing when my MIL grabbed my breasts and sqeezed them! This haunts me forever. On our way home I tried to talk to husband about his mothers mental state but he got furious and defensive and said that Im the crazy one! His mother is a normal mediterranean mama and is just being loving.....I was very clise to leave him at that moment. Well years later, and many more visits to the unsanitary home filled with human and animal feaces and urine and cockroaches and filth and mold everywhere - I did leave him, but silly me came back and then got pregnant...after my daughter was born we visited once, the housecwas filled with cigarette smoke and I was given biscuits with mold on them, I took my baby and went out and sat in the car. That was it, I would not risk my daughters health for anything!!!! My husband and the family were so surprised... duh! I have refuswd to go to that house ever since, it is unspoken aboutposted 05/06/2015 by annapetz
My MIL and FIL are absolutely filthy people and their unsanitary habits have caused me unbelievable grief for 19 years now. My husband thinks there is nothing wrong with what they do and gets very angrt and defensive when I try to point out that it is not normal to cut up raw chicken, not clean hands afterwards and then grab cooked food with hands and put it on plates! But he would not do the same of course (or I would not have married him obviously).... My MIL is ab alcoholic and has mental issues, but the family denies this! She sits at the table when we eat and stares vacantly into the air and then suddenly screams that she wants beer! Total madness! FIL gets agitated and screams back ar her, at which she answers with the sh..t and f..ck words. OMG. I was in a state of shock for years over the every second weekend we would visit their house before my daughter was born! My MIL would always get drunk and she would reach out and grab my breasts and sqeeze them!! I was too shocked to saposted 05/06/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
Although your MIL may not see it this way, this is 100% a safety issue. Hoarders are similar to addicts; expect a tantrum from MIL, but do not take it personally and stand your ground. Explain the situation to your pediatrician and have your husband hear from a third party that it is unwise to have your child play/visit in that environment. Unfortunately, my in-laws are also hoarders. In 5 years of marriage, I have never been inside their home. Only certain people are permitted inside. I understand my MIL is probably embarrassed, but there is no chance that my child will be permitted there unless I can see it first. Did I mention that my husband's schizophrenic aunt lives there too? Never met her, but I understand that her disease is not well-controlled. It's funny, they will likely see me as the barrier to their grandchildren, not the junk or mentally-ill aunt :o(posted 06/29/2014 by MeiMei2014
I completely understand what you're talking about, my issue is with my own mother who threatens to not speak to me if I try to talk to her about her house. She says she likes it that way and to shut up and leave her alone. I don't believe you are wrong for staying at a hotel but the one thing you need to do is tell her about it. If it continues because everyone lets her do it then she will never change. The only way to change a situation is to confront it and the condition of someone's house is a testiment to how they treat their family and she needs to provide a sanitary place to house a family gathering. If she cannot provide that then she either needs to not have a family function or get a new house. I hope this helps.posted 08/20/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
my mother and father live in a tiny single wide trailer. Furniture is stacked on itself, and trinkets are all about. There is no floor room, and the carpet is possibly 30-40 years old. The neighbors dogs constantly get, murder my parents cats by ripping them into pieces, and attack other dog and chase humans. My mom also smokes, Despite my mom being hurt, and she was at first for a long time, i didnt cave in. Her home is no place for a baby. It is a hazard waiting to happen. She finally came to terms with it, and realized until she has a safer home, our kids won't be there. There was no arguing, just laying out of the facts. And it hurts her to know she doesn't have a home she can host with, but that's the price of living there. We all have things we want to do, but sometimes we need to make changes to do them.posted 11/11/2012 by Megan151
My MIL is a wonderful person but her house has health issues. I do my best not to bring my children. She has about 15 cats (alley cats, she has a good heart but this is too much) and 2 dogs. There's clutter from floor to ceiling. Cats urinate all over and since there's so much junk, it's hard to clean up. The dogs don't get washed. The cats bring in fleas. Every time we visit, our clothes stink. Since we moved 100 miles away. I use the excuse of being too tired to visit from taking care of two children. She is more than welcome to visit us. I always cook her a full meal and am very hospitable.posted 12/15/2007 by KaileeAndErinsMom
Your main concern is your child's health and I don't blame you. I don't know why it's so hard for people to understand that babies can easily become sick from filth or just germs. So keep away until she does better by you and your child.posted 04/13/2008 by ayepeep
when i saw this i nearly died of laughter i thought i was the only one going through this. This is excatly my mother and laws house 4 cats and one dog. the walls are covered in grease from cooking which she refuses to clean, if though when i ask if there mold all over shower im told no there isnt, but im not a idiot.. sometimes the washrooms are not even cleaned for weeks and there are multiple people living there! im am not a b**** and im not ocd but cmon i wont be leaving my newborn there probably everposted 12/05/2011 by a BabyCenter Member

Additional Information
About Negros Women for Tomorrow FoundationNegros Women for Tomorrow Foundation, Inc. (NWTF) is a non-governmental organization established with an aim to help men and women achieve self-sufficiency, particularly in the province of Negros Occidental's low-income communities. The organization offers its clients a wide variety of products, including loans for micro-entrepreneurs, hospital income benefits, life insurance, accidental death benefits and more. Kiva lenders' funds will be used to expand the reach of these products to low-income urban and rural communities.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

UPDATE; Lasers May Soon Be Used to Treat Farsightedness
By ANNE EISENBERG
Published: November 3, 1998
Sharon McCormack of White Salmon, Wash., loved windsurfing the Columbia River Gorge, but she had a problem on the big jumps: Her contact lenses washed out. ''Or I got dust under a lens,'' she said. ''That's incredibly painful.''
Ms. McCormack solved the problem by having laser surgery to correct her nearsightedness. More than 400,000 laser vision procedures will be done this year, industry sources say, most of them for nearsightedness, or myopia, like Ms. McCormack's. But next year, farsighted surfers and others may be having laser surgery, too.
In July, the Ophthalmic Devices Panel of the Food and Drug Administration recommended approval of a laser to treat farsightedness, or hyperopia.
Final approval is expected by year's end. ''I'm sure that Americans will be treated for farsightedness with lasers next year,'' said Dr. Scott MacRae, associate professor of ophthalmology at the Casey Eye Institute at the Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland. Dr. MacRae has also served on the F.D.A. Ophthalmic Devices Panel.
Now, two lasers used to treat myopia and myopia with astigmatism are approved by the Federal agency. The basic procedures, photorefractive keratotomy (PRK) and laser in-situ keratomileusis (Lasik), remove tiny bits of the cornea to flatten it so light focuses more precisely on the retina. PRK shapes the cornea's surface; Lasik, a mid-corneal method, vaporizes or ablates the middle of the cornea rather than the front to improve focus.
But farsightedness is more difficult to correct, Dr. MacRae said. In the new procedure, a laser will be used to sculpture the area in the periphery of the cornea, in effect, making the center steeper and bringing the focus from behind the retina to the retina.
''What you're doing for the nearsighted is a crewcut to the cornea,'' Dr. MacRae said. ''For the farsighted, you have the trickier job of steepening the cornea.''
A variation of farsightedness that the new procedures will not treat is presbyopia, the gradual, age-related condition of suddenly fuzzy print and the necessity of reading glasses. ''About the time you turn 40, the eyes start to lose their capability to focus sharply for near vision,'' said Dr. Jeffrey L. Weaver, director of the Clinical Care Center at the American Optometric Association in St. Louis. ''These new laser procedures won't affect presbyopia, because the condition is not due to the cornea. It comes about as the lens loses its ability to accommodate or focus sharply for near vision, a loss of elasticity that is inevitable as we age.''
The new laser methods to treat farsightedness are expected to cost at least $4,000 and probably will not be covered by most insurance policies.
Dr. Weaver cautions that any laser treatment should be approached thoughtfully. ''PRK and Lasik for myopia have been very successful,'' he said. ''People are usually quite happy with the outcomes, unlike older surgeries like radial keratotomy.''
No matter how successful a procedure, though, risks remain. ''Surgeons doing Lasik actually slice off the front surface of the eye, flip it back, do the laser procedure, and then return the flap to its place,'' Dr. Weaver said. ''There's always the small possibility that the flap may become dislodged. You have to weigh the risk against how much you want to get rid of your glasses or contact lenses.''
Photo: Dr. Scott MacRae of Oregon Health Sciences University predicts that lasers will soon be approved for correcting farsightedness. (John Gress for The New York Times) Chart: ''Goodbye Glasses'' Surgery to correct vision uses an excimer laser, a computer-controlled cool laser beam that performs no cutting or burning. The laser vaporizes corneal tissue by breaking the attachments between the molecules. Here is how laser eye surgery works: NEARSIGHTEDNESS, OR MYOPIA If the eyeball is too long, or the cornea has too much focusing power, images do not focus on the retina, but in front of it. Distant objects appear blurry. TO CORRECT NEARSIGHTEDNESS PRK A cold laser sculptures the cornea's surface, removing tissue to flatten it and change its focal point. Lasik An incision is made in the cornea to create a hinged flap. The laser is then applied to the middle cornea. FARSIGHTEDNESS, OR HYPEROPIA If the eyball is too short or the cornea too flat, images focus in a point beyond the retina. Close objects are blurry. TO CORRECT FARSIGHTEDNESS Excimer laser to treat farsightedness is expected to be approved by the F.D.A. by the end of the year. In one method, the center of the eye is masked and peripheral tissue is removed to steepen the center of the cornea. (Source: Visx, American Academy of Ophtalmology)

Connecting Math and Science for All Students
Cawley, John F., Foley, Teresa E., Teaching Exceptional Children
Hands-on Contextualized Highly interactive Interconnected Systematic Engaging Interesting Understandable
The words in our little list have a sort of progression. We go from hands-on activities that have context, and we end with engaged students who understand the material we are presenting. What could be better? Sounds easy, right? Well, many teachers may find that they need another word on the list, "systematic," to ensure that all students "get" the connections between math and science and improve their understanding.
This article describes a way to provide systematic connections between mathematics and science through several hands-on lessons, word problems, and opportunities for problem-solving. The article also describes the benefits to all students of linking mathematics and other school subjects.
Special Education Connections
Special education has an extended history of curricular connections. Seguin (1907) commented as far back as 1866: "Teaching facts is not so fruitful as teaching how to find the relations between a single one and its natural properties and connexions" (p. 64). Ingram (1960) and Duncan (1943) suggested that subjects should not be taught alone, but in connections to other subjects. Ingram employed a "unit method" in which students would study a common topic such as "Raising Chickens"; and all skills and processes would be integrated into the topic to ensure that the student recognized the relationships between the subject and its applications.
Other researchers (e.g., Engelmann, Carnine, & Steely, 1991) described how to teach arithmetic computational relationships and their connections within the context of solving word problems in mathematics. Hasselbring and Moore (1996) used contextualized learning environments to teach mathematics to students with learning difficulties. Gersten and Baker (1998) described how to integrate scientific concepts into situated cognitive activities through explicit instruction.
Cawley and Parmar (1993) developed two comprehensive problem-solving programs that integrated mathematics and science within the context of language comprehension and arithmetic. The two programs begin with counting and extend through division and cover a grade span approximating 4 years. The programs are nontraditional in that they engage the student in contextualized problem-solving activities and seek to develop computational proficiency through problem-solving. All activities are "hands-on" and highly interactive. They all take place within science settings (e.g., the matter laboratory; the weather map) and develop proficiency with computation via problem-solving activities.
Making Connections
Our problem-solving programs take advantage of the structure and sequence of math curricula and inject science topics into the lessons. We thus can make interesting and meaningful connections between mathematics and science. This article outlines three mathematics ideas. These are the interrelationships between multiplication and division, ratio, and proportions. The topics cover a grade range of Grades 3 through 8. Each of these topics represents important mathematics principles, as follows:
* The multiplication and division relationship is important as a means of describing multiplication and for using the relationship between factors to define division as a search for the missing factor.
* Ratio is important as a constant (i.e., pi as derived from circumference/ diameter); as a variable for making comparisons (e.g., Which is larger/ smaller: 2/4, 3/8, or 4/8?); and as a guideline for developing mixtures and solutions (e.g., customized paint orders),
Proportions are important for comparing two ratios and for preparing combinations of products (e.g., If 1 ounce of weedkiller is added to a gallon of water, how many ounces of weed killer must be added to 4 gallons of water?). Many adolescents and adults have difficulty with proportional reasoning (AAAS, 1993), as do students with disabilities (Brownell, Mellard, & Deshler, 1993). …

Hi Everyone,
Please only respond if your knowledgable on what I am asking or have gone through it. So im 21 wks pregnant and on 70 mg a day of methadone. I do go to a clinic every morning and take it under a nurses care. I have been on methadone for about 10 mo. and was tapering when i found out i was expecting. The clinic made me immediatly stop the taper for liability reasons i guess b/c the harm it can cause the unborn fetus. I was wondering if anyone has experience, or knows someone who has been in the relm of my dosage and had a child? thanks for the help~

Ashlee, I know methadone's been mentioned on the board before, but for the life of me I can't remember the exact info about it. Tried doing a search for it and I keep getting an Error message. Maybe you can try it? Search is having an epic attitude on BBC lately so don't be shocked if you get the message, too.

Having kids is a lot like being pecked to death by a chicken.
thank you. i have been extremely educating myself about being pregnant and what to expect and all about babies on methadone i just would really like someone direct experience not a page telling me what can happen but hasnt been through it :)

We rarely ask folks to come off methadone..we do like them to cut down if possible
The reason they stopped your taper is because it can cause a miscarriage. It's considered safer for the fetus to continue taking the medication at the same dose.
The concern with medications like methadone is neonatal withdrawals, or neonatal abstinence syndrome. Researchers are finding that there may not be a link between the dosage a mother takes and NAS. Below is a bunch of great information regarding NAS.
It's been my experience, through the pain board, that more often than not, babies are born with no withdrawal symptoms. If they show signs of withdrawal, it's minor, and typically does not require treatment. I cannot, for the life of me, recall an occasion where a baby had severe withdrawals, and my board has almost 500 members. There is a full gambit of medications used on the board, from tylenol to methadone, and everything in between.
If I can answer any specific questions, please feel free to ask, and I'll be happy to help. ***hugs***
Here's a wealth of great information about neonatal abstinence.
KEEP IN MIND: this information is geared towards women who are NOT using medications AS PRESCRIBED by their doctors.
I am posting this so you may have a reference of what withdrawal symptoms CAN be, and ask you to read the following fully before commenting.
High-Risk Newborn
Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome
Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is a term for a group of problems a baby experiences when withdrawing from exposure to narcotics. It is estimated that 3 to 50 percent of newborn babies have been exposed to maternal drug use, depending on the population and area of the country.
Almost every drug passes from the mother's blood stream through the placenta to the fetus. Illicit substances that cause drug dependence and addiction in the mother also cause the fetus to become addicted. At birth, the baby's dependence on the substance continues. However, since the drug is no longer available, the baby's central nervous system becomes overstimulated causing the symptoms of withdrawal.
Some drugs are more likely to cause NAS than others, but nearly all have some effect on the baby. Opiates, such as heroin and methadone, cause withdrawal in over half of babies exposed prenatally. Cocaine may cause some withdrawal, but the main symptoms in the baby are due to the toxic effects of the drug itself. Other drugs such as amphetamines, barbiturates, and narcotics can also cause withdrawal. Alcohol use causes withdrawal in the baby, as well as a group of problems including birth defects called fetal alcohol syndrome.
When a mother uses illicit substances, she places her baby at risk for many problems. A mother using drugs may be less likely to seek prenatal care, which can increase the risks for her and her baby. In addition, women who use drugs are more likely to use more than one drug, which can complicate the treatment. The risk of contracting HIV and AIDS is also greater among intravenous (IV) drug users.
In addition to the specific difficulties of withdrawal after birth, problems in the baby may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- poor intrauterine growth
- premature birth
- seizures
- birth defects
Specific drugs often times cause specific problems in the baby and may include the following:
- Heroin and other opiates, including methadone, can cause significant withdrawal in the baby, with some symptoms lasting as long as four to six months. Seizures may also occur and are more likely in babies born to methadone users.
- Prenatal use of amphetamines is associated with low birthweight and premature birth, and may cause intracranial (in the head) bleeding in the baby.
- A mother's prenatal cocaine use may be related to an increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
- Marijuana use is linked to lower birthweight and size of the baby.
- Alcohol use in pregnancy also has significant effects on the fetus and the baby. Growth during pregnancy and after birth is slowed. Specific deformities of the head and face, heart defects, and mental retardation are seen with fetal alcohol syndrome. Withdrawal symptoms from alcohol may last up to 18 months.
- Cigarette smoking has long been known for its effects on the fetus. Generally, smokers have smaller babies than non-smokers. Babies of smokers may also be at increased risk for premature birth and stillbirth.
Symptoms of NAS may vary depending on the type of substance used, the last time it was used, and whether the baby is full-term or premature. Symptoms of withdrawal may begin as early as 24 to 48 hours after birth, or as late as five to ten days. Alcohol withdrawal may begin within a few hours after birth.
The following are the most common symptoms of neonatal abstinence syndrome. However, each baby may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms of withdrawal in full-term babies may include:
- tremors (trembling)
- irritability (excessive crying)
- sleep problems
- high-pitched crying
- tight muscle tone
- hyperactive reflexes
- seizures
- yawning, stuffy nose, and sneezing
- poor feeding and suck
- vomiting
- diarrhea
- dehydration
- sweating
- fever or unstable temperature
Premature babies may not have the classic signs of withdrawal listed above, but more often experience the following symptoms:
- tremors (trembling)
- high-pitched crying
- rapid breathing
- poor feeding
The symptoms of NAS may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your baby's physician for a diagnosis.
An accurate report of the mother's drug usage is important, including the time of the last drug taken. A neonatal abstinence scoring system may be used to help diagnose and grade the severity of the withdrawal. Using the scoring system, points are assigned for certain signs and symptoms and the severity of each. This scoring may also help in planning treatment.
Specific treatment for NAS will be determined by your baby's physician based on:
- your baby's gestational age, overall health, and medical history
- extent of the disease
- your baby's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- expectations for the course of the disease
- your opinion or preference
Babies suffering from withdrawal are irritable and often have a difficult time being comforted. Swaddling, or snugly wrapping the baby in a blanket, may help comfort the baby. Babies also may need extra calories because of their increased activity and may need a higher calorie formula. Intravenous (IV) fluids are sometimes needed if the baby becomes dehydrated or has severe vomiting or diarrhea.
Some babies may need medications to treat severe withdrawal symptoms, especially for seizures. Specific drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating withdrawal include the following:
- methadone for heroin and other opiate withdrawal
- benzodiazepines (for alcohol withdrawal)
Other drugs are also being used to help relieve the discomfort and problems of withdrawal. The treatment drug is usually in the same class as the substance the baby is withdrawing from. Once the signs of withdrawal are controlled, the dosage is gradually decreased to help wean the baby off the drug. Consult your baby's physician to learn which treatments might be effective for your baby.

Hi Ashlee,
I understand where you are coming from. I'm on suboxone to help manage my chronic pain and opiate dependency. I was offered methadone, but felt more comforable with suboxone. Anyway, there are a lot of information out there about this topic. Just google "Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome" or "NAS" ... This will be my first baby on suboxone, so I have no experience with NAS and otherwise. However, during my researches, I stumbled upon this webpage and bookmarked it as it contained extremely helpful information. It is a board for pregnant moms on methadone. They share their experiences, etc. http://excoboard.com/Methadone_Pregnancy_Information/85305
This other link contains some helpful information, especially if you read all of the comments.
One thing I can tell you for certain... your baby may or may not have to stay in the NICU for awhile... but he/she will come home... and your baby will be perfectly fine! :)
Hope those links help to give you the information you need to feel reassured. Good luck!

Five Fortunesby Beth Gutcheon
Witty, wise, and hope-filled, Five Fortunes is a large-hearted tale of five vivid and unforgettable women who know where they've been but have no idea where they're going. A lively octogenarian, a private investigator, a mother and daughter with an unresolved past, and a recently widowed politician's wife share little else except a thirst for new dreams, but after a week at the luxurious health spa known as "Fat Chance" their lives will be intertwined in ways they couldn't have imagined. At a place where doctors, lawyers, spoiled housewives, movie stars, and captains of industry are stripped of the social markers that keep them from really seeing one another, unexpected friendships emerge, reminding us of the close links between the rich and the poor, fortune and misfortune, and the magic of chance.
Good-bye and Amenby Beth Gutcheon
In a summer cottage on the coast of Maine, an unlikely love was nurtured, a marriage endured, and a family survived. Now it is time for the children of that marriage to make peace with the wounds and the treasures left to them. And to sort out which is which. The complicated marriage of the gifted Danish pianist Laurus Moss to the provincial American child of privilege Sydney Brant was a mystery to many who knew them, including their three children. Now Eleanor, Monica, and Jimmy Moss have to decide how to divide or share what Laurus and Sydney have left them without losing one another.
Gossipby Beth Gutcheon
The critically acclaimed author of Good-bye and Amen, Leeway Cottage, and More Than You Know returns with a sharply perceptive and emotionally resonant novel about all the ways we talk about one another, the sometimes fine line between showing concern and doing damage, and the difficulty of knowing the true obligations of friendship Gossip Beth Gutcheon "Did you know that the origin of the word gossip in English is 'god-sibling'? It's the talk between people who are godparents to the same child, people who have a legitimate loving interest in the person they talk about. It's talk that weaves a net of support and connection beneath the people you want to protect." Loviah "Lovie" French owns a small, high-end dress shop on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Renowned for her taste and discretion, Lovie is the one to whom certain women turn when they need "just the thing" for major life events-baptisms and balls, weddings and funerals-or when they just want to dish in the dressing room. Among the people who depend on Lovie's confidence are her two best friends since boarding school: Dinah Wainwright and Avis Metcalf. Outspoken and brimming with confidence, Dinah made a name for herself as a columnist covering the doings of New York's wealthiest and most fabulous. Shy, proper Avis, in many ways Dinah's opposite, rose to prominence in the art world with her quiet manners, hard work, and precise judgment. Despite the deep affection they both feel for Lovie, they have been more or less allergic to each other since a minor incident decades earlier that has been remembered and resented with what will prove to be unimaginable consequences. These uneasy acquaintances become unwillingly bound to each other when Dinah's favorite son and Avis's only daughter fall in love and marry. On the surface, Nick and Grace are the perfect match-a playful, romantic, buoyant, and beautiful pair. But their commitment will be strained by time and change: career setbacks, reckless choices, the birth of a child, jealousies, and rumor. At the center of their orbit is Lovie, who knows everyone's secrets and manages them as wisely as she can. Which is not wisely enough, as things turn out-a fact that will have a shattering effect on all their lives. An astute chronicler of everything that makes us human, Beth Gutcheon delivers her most powerful and emotionally devastating novel to date. Gossip is a tale of intimacy and betrayal, trust and fidelity, friendship, competition, and motherhood that explores the myriad ways we use and abuse "information" about others-be it true, false, or imagined-to sustain, and occasionally destroy, one another.
Leeway Cottageby Beth Gutcheon
In April 1940, as the Nazis march into Denmark, Sydney Brant, a wealthy girl of the Dundee summer colony, marries a gifted Danish pianist, Laurus Moss. They believe they are well matched, as young lovers do, but Laurus's beloved family is in Copenhagen, hostage to what the fortunes of Hitler's war will bring. By the time the war is over, Laurus's family has played an active role in Denmark's grassroots rescue of virtually all seven thousand of the country's Jews. Meanwhile, in America, Sydney has led a group knitting for the war effort, and had a baby. Combining the story of one long American twentieth-century marriage with one of the most stirring stories of World War II, Leeway Cottage is a beautifully written tour de force of a novel.
More Than You Knowby Beth Gutcheon
In a small town called Dundee on the coast of Maine, an old woman named Hannah Gray begins her story: "Somebody said 'true love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen.' I've seen both and I don't know how to tell you which is worse." Hannah has decided, finally, to leave a record of the passionate and anguished long-ago summer in Dundee when she met Conary Crocker, the town bad boy and love of her life. This spare, piercing, and unforgettable novel bridges two centuries and two intense love stories as Hannah and Conary's fate is interwoven with the tale of a marriage that took place in Dundee a hundred years earlier.
Saying Graceby Beth Gutcheon
Rue Shaw has everything--a much loved child, a solid marriage, and a job she loves. Saying Grace takes place in Rue's mid-life, when her daughter is leaving home, her parents are failing, her husband is restless and the school she has built is being buffeted by changes in society that affect us all. Funny, rich in detail and finally stunning, this novel presents a portrait of a tight-knit community in jeopardy, and of a charming woman whose most human failing is that she wants things to stay the same. Saying Grace is about the fragility of human happiness and the strength of convictions, about keeping faith as a couple whether it keeps one safe or not. Beth Gutcheon has a gift for creating a world in microcosm and capturing the grace in the rhythms of everyday life.

Im guessing you get this suggestion a lot but i was think that the freelancer axpansion would be perfect for this mod, with all the new units and such :)
It's gonna be added in FEMP 2.5
I waged all out war with swadia. STARTING WITH PRAVEN
My army was 400 strong
Right... as I wrote in my PM to you Ikaguia, intallation method you produced elsewhere is not working.
1. Downloading FEMP 2.4;
2. Updating FEMP 2.4 to 2.41a;
3. Overweiting FEMP 2.41a with FIMP 0.572;
leads to black screen on main menu, failing to upload few dozens of textures on the character face creation screen and... well... i think it's common error with FEMP, but I run out of memory later. Even despite switching all setting to abolute minimum. Interestingly... my PC is quite powerful machine.
PS. Can you also explain why download here weights 1.1 GB? Elsewhere FIMP is only 15 mb...
download here seems to be FULL download FIMP v0.4, no need to download FEMP, I wasn't the one who uploaded it so I can't tell exactly.
about the black screen, I've already fixed it in FIMP v0.6 (dunno how)
can you tell me the name of the missing textures?
I thought so. Still, even with this full FEMP+FIMP+FIX download the game crashed because of missing textures.
And sure. I can do that. Just tell me whether game produce crash log somewhere or I will need to rewrite the textures names manualy?
in the warband folder there is a rlg_log.txt
Hmm... strange. This time (after I installed FIMP again) I managed to get to character creation screen, however it was totaly black and "+" buttons on character skill screen where somehow black.
Despite that game was not flooding the screen with red "missing texture" messeges.
This is what I found in rlg_log.txt

Wrrrrr... Probably the only solution will be adding extra1 gb of RAM. Thanks for help. A+ for support ;)
I have a SLEW of texture errors that i never encountered before,I have not downloaded a different version.I will get some pasted on here next time I try playing this.If anyone can help me before that (doubtful) i will be very grateful.Oh and most of them seem like normal M&B textures not added ones.
what do you mean you have not downloaded a different version?
you should download FEMP 2.41a and install FIMP on a FEMP copy
OH and I have it from this download Floris Expanded 2.4 + music pack + FIMP 0.4 + fix .
Can't seem to get any of the error messages because each time it crashes due to one my mouse won't appear on anything but task manager until I end warband
This version USED to work on my PC,so i'm almost positive it's not a ram problem.But anyway i know this is fail but where do I even check that?
uhm, that's strange, how much RAM do you have?
if you have < 3GB maybe it's too resource extensive for your computer, next version will be lighter.
check this: Forums.taleworlds.com

Thursday mornings Shelley Neal, the South Braintree agent for the American Express Company, met the 9:18 local from Boston to pick up the payrolls of the Slater & Morrill and Walker & Kneeland shoe factories. Until January 1920, the payrolls had been sent down on Wednesdays, but recently there had been so many holdups around Boston that the head office had altered its delivery schedules.
It was an uneasy time, that year after the soldiers returned. In November the savings bank in the neighboring town of Randolph, a few miles west of Braintree, had been held up and robbed. A month later, on the day before Christmas, four men in a touring car had tried to rob the paymaster of the L. Q. White shoe factory in Bridgewater, sixteen miles to the south. An unknown gang had recently stolen several freight-car loads of shoes belonging to Slater & Morrill. Almost every week Neal received a notice from the Boston office warning him to take every precaution, particularly to watch out for suspicious strangers. He now carried his 38-caliber Colt in his pocket with the pocket flap tucked inside so that he could reach for it quickly.
South Braintree was the other side of the New York, New Haven & Hartford tracks, at the wrong end of town. Had there been a national-bank branch there, the payroll money would not have had to be sent down by train, but the triangle of factories and narrow streets and workers' houses was not commercially important enough. Braintree itself, lying ten miles south of Boston, was an undistinguished community of about fifteen thousand inhabitants that one passed through almost absent-mindedly on the old turnpike road to Cape Cod.
On Thursday morning, April 15, Neal, in his customary dark suit,

This is so awesome!
Your work is just incredible.
So cute! I love your designs!
for whatever reason, i find more inspiration from sketches and scribbles than i do finished projects.
just keep drawing please
I like the underwater strip and the composition. The lower two rows are from Darker than Black series 2 OVA, right? Nice movement but on its own it feels like there isn't quite enough in comic style…
"Isn't quite enough in comic style?" Compared to what? Who made up that rule? lol. Thanks!
I'm actually not sure what I meant back then xD Heyho, I took a look at it again and I really like it so I think I was trying to be constructive. Sorry it sounded so flat-out rude. The anatomy is great and the movement is interesting to watch.
I love it! You've got an amazing style. Totally inspired now!
wOW this is A STYLE I WAS AIMIN FOR GOOD GRIEF!
very goooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOD..!! .. I LIKED.. ^^
You every gonna do some cool stuff like this with some black characters? Love your style love anime and manga and would love to see a blend of the two. And i know your stlye would wreck all types of havok in the anime manga world. No coonery no dumb stuff just bad ass art (which is all you produce) with black characters so kids can put them on par with any other anime or manga out there. Your stuff is always inspiring to me.
Thanks, bro. I have tons of material starring characters of color/ different ethnic backgrounds. Just browse through my gallery in fact, two of my main projects star characters of color. But i got love for other races, too. Including the project i work on that are not mine, such as this one.
beatsin as always.....
Damn, damn, damn!!!
one word,gangsta!!!!
looks like the style of breath of fire iv. awesome
nice lines
the evolution of your work is amazing and inspiring as well
this is hands down one of the coolest characters i ever seen, i have a character like this lmfao
good stuff
love it, like the monster design and the character design too, keep it up.
Is this for something real or just sketching ideas? It looks really cool!
I kinda like more the desgin that he look younger, but the first one is much more interesting for an actual show.

man jus love how ya keep up the excitement in ya lines
I always liked how your images clearly show action, movement and tension- or clearly show stillness
It's all about the silhouettes. If you fill in your poses all black and the pose's body action doesn't read clear, it's not a good pose. Silhouettes are key to good gesture and posing, which in turn compliments staging and composition.
awesome action siquence !
I see you there being awesome. Great job.
Oh wow, these are awesome :,D They're adorable X3
I think people lack the understanding of the definition of the word, 'scribbles'.
This looks Avatar-ish. I approve.
water bending maybe?
Are those copic marker tones or water color?
spanking concept!!!
I gotta say.. I want my CBGN!!!
Sweet!! These are great designs!!
long time no see
always a pleasure though
always a pleasure though

Tucson - Color catcher Yorvit Torrealba's spring black, blue and frustrating.
In one week, the hard-luck catcher has taken four baseballs to his right biceps, leaving it swollen and discolored. He will be out of action for at least the next few days.
"I've never seen anything like it," trainer Keith Dugger said. "Four shots on his biceps in seven days. It's ugly. Now the swelling has moved down toward his elbow so he can't throw anything more than long-toss."
Dugger said he doesn't think Torrealba will end up on the disabled list, but will have a better idea when the team breaks camp Saturday.
Torrealba entered camp expecting to compete with catcher Danny Ardoin for the No. 1 job. But an early shoulder injury put Torrealba behind from the start.
Slump buster
Shortstop Clint Barmes entered Tuesday's game against the Giants with a .196 average (9-for-46), but hit two singles to raise his average to .222.
"I'll be fine. I was slow early last spring, and then the last week I got hot and carried that right into the season," said Barmes, who began the 2005 regular season by hitting .410 in April.
In his final exhibition start, Zach Day allowed four runs on seven hits in four innings, including a two-run homer to Abraham Nuñez. Day struck out six....
