SHADYSIDE - For the Shadyside Tigers, it's 9-0, one to go.
After Friday night's 48-20 dismantling of Bridgeport at Fleming Field, all that stands between Shadyside and the school's third 10-0 season - and second consecutive - is a home encounter with Barnesville.
"(Back in August), I didn't think we'd be here," Shadyside coach Mark Holenka said. "But, it's sure nice to be here. I just told our seniors to enjoy the next two home games because they'll be the biggest of your life."

Shadyside's Austin Dorris is pursued by Bridgeport's Chance Watson (60) during their game Friday night at Fleming Field.
Shadyside had wrapped up a berth in the inaugural Division VII playoff field after a victory against Wheeling Central two weeks ago. It firmly wrapped up a home game after last week's victory against Union Local and the victory against Bridgeport all but seals the OVAC Class 2A title, which would be the Tigers' third in four years.
Bridgeport, meanwhile, has dropped four in a row and seven of eight. The Bulldogs (2-7) will conclude their regular season at home against Cameron.
"We'll get back to work Monday, work hard this week and try to close out the season with a win," Bridgeport coach Rudy Vavrock said.
The Tigers didn't do anything fancy.
They simply did what works best for them and that's running the ball behind that massive and talented offensive line with their backfield of quarterback Austin Dorris, tailback Eric Howell and fullback Chris Littell.
The trio combined for 225 yards on 26 carries and scored six touchdowns. Dorris carried just three times for 87 yards and two touchdowns. In the process, he went over the 1,000-yard mark for the season.
Dorris' touchdown runs covered 16 and 65 yards
Littell led the way with 104 yards on 14 carries and he scored twice. He scored the final touchdown of the first half and the first score of the third-quarter on runs of 3 and 9 yards, respectively.
Howell finished with 34 yards on nine rushes. His two touchdown runs covered 1 and 5 yards.
"They're really hard to stop once they get it going," Vavrock said. "They've got three guys who can run the ball. They're a playoff team and they play like it. This is one of the more physical Shadyside teams that I can remember because they just come right at you."
The physicality not only comes from the backs, but also the Tigers' line, which is comprised of Zach Meadows, Colton Campbell, Cory Banco, Hunter Hammond and Jacob Spencer.
The Tigers' first team scored on all seven of its possessions before Holenka put in his younger players after the first series of the third quarter. After each touchdown, Mason Campbell was perfect on the point after.
"It was a workmanlike effort," Holenka said. "After the first half, we decided we'd play (the first unit) one series each way and then get them out of there. I don't worry about the points because I want the kids to grow, get a little better and get some experience. Our younger kids deserve to play because they're the ones who give us a look all week."
Despite Holenka's hopes to get some opportunities to work on the passing game, Dorris threw only four passes, landing half for 37 yards.
"When you get a lead too quick, you have to watch what you do (offensively)," Holenka said. "We don't want to rub any salt in any wounds, so we'll work on our passing game on Tuesday through Thursday on the practice field."
Bridgeport, which fought to the bitter end, scored all three of its touchdowns in the fourth quarter.
The first Bulldogs touchdown came on a highlight reel style catch on a pass from Bailey McGrath to Dakota Gabel. The pass hit Gabel in the chest, ricocheted off a Tigers' defender and back into Gabel's arms for a touchdown.
Patrick Britton scored on a 1-yard run and Gabel, who accounted for 118 yards of offense, including 84 rushing, closed the scoring with a 53-yard burst.
The Tigers' final score was a 39-yard run by Stevie Doughty in the fourth quarter.
Shadyside's defense picked off McGrath three times. Dorris, Jake Duvall and Cody Hawthorne all pilfered passes.

From food trucks to finer dining spots, you'd be hard-pressed to find places to eat in Portland where you'll get the side-eye for wearing jeans. Eating well—especially eating farm-to-table—is a cultural obsession here, whether you're having a $4 egg sandwich or a $30 entrée. Though many chefs around Portland have James Beard Awards and Top Chef wins, it's still rare to wait more than an hour for brunch or dinner, even at the city's hottest restaurants—the toughest spots to get a table are Screen Door, Pok Pok, and Ava Gene's. And if an hour wait is too long, there's always a great place nearby to have a drink—or you can just head to the food carts.
The best restaurants in Portland offer eclectic dining opportunities as well as modern twists on traditional dishes, sure to satisfy even the most discerning foodies. At Pok Pok, James Beard Award-winning chef Andy Ricker serves up a fusion menu inspired by classic Thai cuisine and served in a trendy, low-key environment. Locals' favorites include Vietnamese chicken wings, boar collar, and Thai noodle soups. At Nostrana, award-winning chef Cathy Whims turns out authentic Italian cuisine with a rustic, lightly modern take. She makes her mozzarella in-house daily, imported her wood-burning oven from Tuscany, and works closely with her farmers to incorporate local produce into the menu, even if it's not a traditional Italian ingredient.Read Less

There's a joke in Charlotte, North Carolina that visitors only visit once. Why? Because they fall in love with the city and stay! The Queen City is certainly majestic – it spreads across the gently rolling hills of the Carolina Piedmont, just east of the Catawba River and south of Lake Norman. And while residents may joke about visitors staying, there's no question Charlotte's population is booming. Charlotte is one of the nation's fastest-growing cities and is a major financial hub.
Charlotte is a major college town, home to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Johnson & Wales University, Central Piedmont Community College, and Queens University of Charlotte. Davidson, a suburb of Charlotte, is home to Davidson College – one of the top liberal arts colleges in the US.
Perhaps one visit had you hooked, as well! Or perhaps you'll be attending UNC Charlotte. Or maybe you want to become a part of Charlotte's thriving financial, technical, and business climate. No matter what the reason you want to rent an apartment in Charlotte, here's the buzz about the Queen City!
Things to Do in Charlotte:
Charlotte has long attracted new residents. Thomas Spratt was among the first European settlers to arrive to the area that is now Charlotte back in 1755. Once you've selected your Charlotte apartment, learn more about the city's long and impressive history! Start at the Charlotte Museum of History then head for the impressive grandeur that is the Duke Mansion. The Historic Duke Mansion was built in 1915 and includes the impressive Southern mansion and award-winning gardens.
Built around 1800, the historic Latta Plantation is a living history farm. This former cotton plantation hosts tours as well as special events, including Civil War reenactments, festivals, and a children's summer camp.
The historic Rosedale Plantation, built in 1815, is a huge 4,600-square-foot home. While the plantation once contained 919 acres, today there are 8.5 acres remaining. The plantation offers tours and hosts weddings and special events.
Now that you are familiar with Charlotte's past, it's time to "fast" forward to the present and the NASCAR Hall of Fame! Check out the exhibits, attend an event, check out Heritage Speedway, or have lunch at the Pit Stop Café.
Perhaps you prefer art museums to race cars. Charlotte has you covered with the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art, Anne Neilson Fine Art, the McColl Center for Art and Innovation, and the NoDa Arts District to explore.
Charlotte is home to Carowinds, a 398-acre amusement park. Boomerang Bay, a 20-acre water park, is located within Carowinds. If you love roller coasters, be sure to check out the latest roller coaster, Fury 325. This is the world's tallest and fastest giga coaster. The coaster travels up to 95 miles per hour and is 6,602 feet long with a 325-foot lift height. Other rides include the Carolina Cyclone, the Carolina Cobra, Nighthawk, the Hurler, and the Intimidator.
The US National Whitewater Center offers thrilling outdoor adventures such as whitewater rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, mountain biking, zip lines, a canopy tour, and rope courses. The center is located on 500 acres along the Catawba River and includes a picnic area, restaurant, gift shop, and concession stands.
If you prefer your thrilling adventures in the form of Broadway shows and musical performances, the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center hosts everything from the Charlotte Symphony to the Martha Graham Dance Company to Broadway plays to stand-up comedians. The Bojangles' Coliseum opened in 1955 as Charlotte's first major sports and entertainment venue. The coliseum hosts music concerts, rodeos, competitions, and family shows.
Sports fans will love cheering on the NFL Carolina Panthers at the Bank of America Stadium! This 74,455-seat stadium is located in Uptown. The stadium is also used for college sports events, concerts, and special events. The NBA Charlotte Hornets play at Time Warner Cable Arena, a large arena that also hosts the AHL ice hockey team, the Charlotte Checkers.
What to Consider When Moving to Charlotte:
The Queen City is also the Hornet's Nest. The second nickname came about during the American Revolution, when hostile residents drove British commander General Cornwallis out of the city. The General later declared that Charlotte was a "hornet's nest of rebellion." The NBA Charlotte Hornets derive their name from this historical event.
Charlotte is a major financial center, and it is also home to many Fortune 500 companies. Bank of America, Duke Energy, Food Lion, Harris Teeter, Lance Inc., Sonic Automotive, and Chiquita Brands International are all located in Charlotte.
NASCAR is huge here, so if you're not a fan yet – you will be soon! Charlotte is home to several NASCAR offices in addition to the NASCAR Hall of Fame. The Charlotte Motor Speedway is located in nearby Concord.
When looking at Charlotte apartments to rent, be aware that the city contains nearly 200 neighborhoods. Uptown is the heart of the city and home to several major businesses, museums (including the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art and the Mint Museum), more than 200 restaurants, 50 nightclubs and bars, and a multitude of shops. Uptown Charlotte contains several smaller wards.
NoDa is a trendy village in North Charlotte. The neighborhood is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is home to historic mill houses and apartment communities. NoDa is a major art and entertainment district, home to a variety of art galleries, restaurants, and music venues.
University City surrounds UNC Charlotte and contains University Research Park, one of the largest research parks in North Carolina. Bordering University City are attractions that include Concord Mills Mall and Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The Historic South End is hip and trendy, featuring a variety of shops, restaurants, and bars located in historic mills and warehouses. The South End dates back to the early 1850s with the development of a railroad line. The Historic Charlotte Trolley Museum is located in the neighborhood.
Why Charlotte Apartments Are Hot:
There's a reason Charlotte is buzzing! This terrific city is the second-largest in the Southeast and the 16th largest city in the nation. Charlotte is a sports town, a college town, an arts town, and the place for exciting outdoor adventures. With a diverse population, a variety of interesting neighborhoods, and beautiful parks such as the Little Sugar Creek Greenway, it's no wonder visitors to Charlotte decide not to leave! Ready to live royally in the Queen City? Find your apartment in Charlotte now!

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Did someone say let it snow?
Areas of central and southern Ohio have gotten more snow already this winter than all of last season. That's making a lot of kids and ski-resort operators happy, but not the folks who've had to drive around in it.
The National Weather Service said Monday that the approximately 2 ½ feet of snow in Columbus so far this season is double what central Ohio got during all of last winter. The nearly 19 inches in Dayton and foot in Cincinnati also about doubled last winter's totals in those regions.
The weather service said Cleveland has logged about 28 inches this season — about 10 inches short of the snowfall total for all of last winter.
More snow is expected in Ohio Monday.

I've seen the anime, but not read the manga. I looked through my own search methods and couldn't come up with much, myself, for a map. There are a few Japanese art books related to the series, but I don't know the exact contents. Sometimes such books contain maps, even if they are just rough ones. I saw one listed on EBay, so you could contact the seller to see if it has a world map in it. Just do a EBay search for "Berserk artbook" and it will come up. If you don't know of it already, a site called arcticnightfall.com is devoted to Berserk and has listings of various merchandise that came out for it, including the art books, so there's another avenue to look into them, if you wish. Again, I don't know if these books have any map data in them, but they seem like a possible source.
Other than that, there is a new series of Berserk animated movies currently coming out in Japan, and the DVDs, when/if they are released overseas, may or may not have map info in the scenes or in extras.

Day 20: We Are What We Are (2010)
Photo provided by Victoria Will/Invision/AP Images
We Are What We Are | 90 min | NR
Give writer/director Jorge Michel Grau credit, he took a fresh approach to the cannibalism film.
His Spanish language picture lives in a drab underworld of poverty teeming with disposable populations and those who consume flesh, figuratively and literally.
In a quiet opening sequence, a man dies in a mall. It happens that this is a family patriarch and his passing leaves the desperately poor family in shambles. While their particular quandary veers spectacularly from expectations, there is something primal and authentic about it.
It's as if a simple relic from a hunter-gatherer population evolved separately but within the larger urban population, and now this little tribe is left without a leader.
An internal power struggle begins to determine the member most suited to take over as the head of the household, and therefore, there is some conflict and competition – however reluctant – over who will handle the principal task of the patriarch: that of putting meat on the table.
We're never privy to the particulars – which again gives the whole affair a feel of authenticity – but adding to the crisis is the impending Ritual, which apparently involves a deadline and some specific meat preparations.
Grau's approach is so subtle, so honest, that it's easy to forget you're watching a horror film. Indeed, were this family fighting to survive on a more traditional level, this film would simply be a fine piece of social realism focused on Mexico City's enormous population in poverty.
But it's more than that. Sure, the cannibalism is simply an extreme metaphor, but it's so beautifully thought out and executed!
The family dynamic is fascinating, every glance weighted and meaningful, every closed door significant. Grau draws eerie, powerful performances across the board, and forever veers in unexpected directions.
We Are What We Are is among the finest family dramas or social commentaries of 2010. Blend into that drama some deep perversity, spooky ambiguities and mysteries, deftly handled acting, and a lot of freaky shit and you have hardly the goriest film in the genre, but certainly one of the most relevant.
An intriguing American remake of sorts is forthcoming, but do yourself a favor and check out the original.
Day 19: The Ring (2002)
The Ring | 115 min | PG-13 |
Not going to lie to you – this one we love. Gore Verbinski's film achieves one of those rare feats, ranking among the scarce few Hollywood remakes that surpasses the foreign born original, Japan's unique paranormal nightmare Ringu.
The Ring – thanks in large part to the creepy clever premise created by Koji Suzuki, who wrote the novel Ringu – is superior to its source material principally due to the imagination and edge of the fledgling director. Verbinski's film is visually arresting, quietly atmospheric, and creepy as hell.
This is basically the story of bad mom/worse journalist Rachel (Naomi Watts) investigating the urban legend of a videotape that kills viewers exactly seven days after viewing.
The tape itself is the key. Had it held images less surreal, less Bunuel, the whole film would have collapsed. But the tape was freaky. And so were the blue-green grimaces on the dead! And that horse thing on the ferry!
And Samara. From cherubic image of plump cheeked innocence to a mess of ghastly flesh and disjointed bones climbing out of the well and into your life, the character is brilliantly created. (It's actually a full grown man who climbs herky-jerky out of the TV, but who cares?)
Verbinski punctuates Rachel's journey with unexpected moments and scares just as surely as that lighthouse beacon will round the room again and expose Brian Cox's bloated, pock-marked glory in the back of the living room.
Sure, it amounts to an immediately dated musing on technology (VHS? They went out with the powdered wig!) Still, there's that last moment when wee Aidan (a weirdly perfect David Dorfman) asks his mom, "What about the people we show it to? What happens to them?"
At this point we realize he means us, the audience.
We watched the tape! We're screwed!
October 18: Severance (2006)
Severance | 96 min | Rated: R
Genuinely funny and exhaustingly brutal, Christopher Smith's British import Severance offers a mischievous team building exercise in horror.
A handful of would-be execs for global weapons manufacturer Palisade Defense are mislead and slaughtered in what they believe to be a mandatory weekend excursion in Hungary to build corporate camaraderie.
Smith and co-writer James Moran's wickedly insightful script mocks corporate culture as Smith's direction pays homage to the weirdest assortment of films. The result is an uproarious but no less frightening visit to an area of the world that apparently scares the crap out of us: Eastern Europe. (Think Hostel, The Human Centipede, Borat.)
Epically watchable, Severance boasts solid performances, well-placed bear traps and land mines, a flame thrower, and an excellent balance of black humor and true horror.
To say more would be to give too much away, but rest assured that with every scene Smith and crew generate palpable tension. It erupts with equally entertaining measure in either a good, solid laugh or in a horrible, disfiguring dose of horror. How awesome is that?!
October 17th: Dead Alive (Braindead) (1992)
Dead Alive (Braindead) | 104 min | Rated: R
Rated R for "an abundance of outrageous gore," Dead Alive is everything the early Peter Jackson did well. It's a bright, silly, outrageously gory bloodbath.
Lionel Cosgrove (Timothy Balme) secretly loves shopkeeper Paquita Maria Sanchez (Diana Peñalver), but she has eyes for someone less milquetoast. Until, that is, she's convinced by psychic forces that Lionel is her destiny. Unfortunately, Lionel's milquetoast-iness comes by way of decades of oppression via his overbearing sadist of a mother, who does not take well to her son's new outside-the-home interests. Mum follows the lovebirds to a date at the zoo, where she's bitten (pretty hilariously) by a Sumatran rat-monkey (do not mistake this dangerous creature for a rabid Muppet or misshapen lump of clay).
The bite kills her, but not before she can squeeze pus into some soup and wreak general havoc, which is nothing compared to the hell she raises once she comes back from the dead.
Mama's boy that he is, Lionel can't bring himself to do what he must until it is spectacularly too late. He chains up an entirely unwholesome family down the basement, which works out well enough as long as he keeps from being bitten, and keeps conniving Uncle Les (Ian Watkin) out of there.
Braindead is so gloriously over-the-top that nearly anything can be forgiven it. Jackson includes truly memorable images, takes zombies in fresh directions, and crafts characters you can root for. But more than anything, he knows where to point his hoseful of gore, and he has a keen imagination when it comes to just how much damage a lawnmower can do.
October 16th: Inside (2007)
Inside (À l'intérieur) | 82 min | Rated: R
Holy moly. Inside is not for the squeamish.
Beatrice Dalle's insidious performance is hard to shake. Fearless, predatory, pitiless and able to take an enormous amount of abuse, her nameless character stalks a very, very pregnant Sarah (Alysson Paradis). Sarah lost her husband in a car crash some months back, and now, on the eve of Christmas, she sits, enormous, uncomfortable, and melancholy about the whole business. She's grown cynical and despondent, more depressed than excited about giving birth in the morning.
Alexandre Bustillo's film seeks to change her mind, make her want that baby. Because Dalle's lurking menace certainly wants it. Her black clad silhouette is in the back yard, smoking and stalking – and she has seriously bad plans in mind.
Bustillo and directing partner Julien Maury swing the film from intelligent white collar angst to goretastic bloodfest with ease. The sadistic humor Dalle brings to the performance adds chills, and Paradis's realistic, handicapping size makes her vulnerability palpable.
The film goes wildly out of control, and by the third act, things are irredeemably out of hand. And yet, this is a 2/3 brilliant effort, a study in tension wherein one woman will do whatever it takes, with whatever utensils are available, to get at the baby still firmly inside another woman's body.

Parents at the Emmys.
by Meredith O'Brien
When the Emmy nominations were announced last week, I was taking a good look at which actors and actresses were nominated for what roles when something jumped out at me: The list included a whole lot of characters who play parents on TV. There were good parents, bad parents, parents who try but don't necessarily succeed and parents who do things they really shouldn't in the name of "helping" their family.
Then I wondered: If I tallied them up would there be more bad parents on the list – because behaving badly seems so theatrical and much more comedic and/or dramatic than acting like a goody-two-shoes – or would the role model parents rule the day? Here's what I found:
The Parentally Challenged
The drama Mad Men, which netted 17 Emmy nominations overall, featured several parents who won't be winning any Parent of the Year contests. Take the main couple, Don and Betty Draper, played by Jon Hamm and January Jones, both nominated for best lead actor/actress in a drama. Ad man Don may have tried really hard to be a dedicated and attentive father but his string of extramarital affairs (including one with his daughter's teacher) and the fact that he stole another man's identity -- both developments which contributed to the death of his marriage to suburban housewife Betty -- basically trumped the good he did as a dad. As for Betty, when she wasn't telling her eldest son to bang his head against a wall when he's bored, she was shouting to her daughter to get out of her hair and "Go watch TV." The eldest parent on the show, Roger Sterling (played by John Slattery, nominated for best supporting actor in a drama) left his wife for his secretary who's barely older than Roger's only daughter, who now hates her father's new wife and feels angry and betrayed that her father disposed of her mother with apparent ease.
The lead characters on two Showtime dramas are intensely messed up parents, mostly due to their dabbling in criminal activity and struggles with drug addiction. Dexter Morgan from Dexter, played by Michael C. Hall (nominated for best lead actor, drama) is a married father living in the 'burbs, who helps the Miami homicide division catch criminals while he moonlights as a killer of the guilty. Jackie Peyton on Nurse Jackie, played by Edie Falco (nominated for best lead actress, comedy) is addicted to pain meds about which she lies and steals in order to get her fix, and has been cheating on her doting husband, the father of her two kids.
Meanwhile, Walter White on Breaking Bad, played by Bryan Cranston (nominated for best lead actor, drama) is similar to Don Draper in that he doesn't set out to be a bad father. In fact, he's doing what he does – cooking crystal meth and getting involved in the drug trade – FOR his family, to earn money for them.
However there's little ambiguity when it comes to whether two characters – Ben Linus from Lost and Evelyn Harper from Two and a Half Men – could be considered traditionally "good" parents. Linus, played by Michael Emerson (nominated for best supporting actor, drama) stole a baby from a woman, raised the child as his own then allowed the teenage girl to be executed in order to protect the magical Lost island which he hoped to run. Meanwhile Harper, played by Holland Taylor (nominated as best supporting actress in a comedy) is referred to by her adult children as "the devil" and has been described as a "toxic" mother and grandmother.
Modern Family has its funny moments, but something kept nagging at me as "off". Then it struck me: how "modern" are these families if none of the mother figures work outside of the home?
Also nominated from Dexter (in the guest actor category) John Lithgow as Arthur Mitchell / Trinity. His was a truly horrifying portrayal of a "family man." Shudder...

Retaliation earned box office love worldwide, and so already boasts a global box office total of $132 million, which is enough for Paramount to promise G.I. Joe 3 will happen.

WASHINGTON (AP/WUSA9) - The expected 'snowquester' spared the nation's capital from heavy snow fall on Wednesday.
WUSA9 reporter Ko Im took to the streets and says very little accumulation was seen. A big difference from prior predictions of up to six inches.
The inch or two that fell Wednesday morning in Washington was enough to shut down much of the city. Federal offices were closed, and commuter trains were canceled or ran on abbreviated schedules.
But most of the snow melted as soon as it hit city streets.
The Smithsonian Institution museums on the National Mall remained open for visitors, but the National Zoo was closed.
At the monuments and memorials, the National Park Service closed its ranger stations.

I am currently on a project (like all of you). I am currently collecting Warhammer 40k Minis and writing a background for them. In that work, I want to create a complete Planet for the story to take place on. Then, mapping tips and tricks were to be found.
And for Real life information, I have a Master degree in History and currently doing an Advanced Master in European Studies (in 1 year) and I am Belgian, that's all Folks :-)
Well, ok let's stop here otherwise there will be nothing else to tell later ;-)
I am glad to join your Community and hope and to learn a lot and to share my futur work with you !
See ya !

Cascade of Intervention in Childbirth
What is the "cascade of intervention?"
What is an example of the cascade of intervention?
How can I limit the problem of a cascade of intervention?
What is the "cascade of intervention?"Many things in life have unintended effects: they may or may not have the effect that we want, and they may also have other unplanned and possibly unwanted effects.
Many maternity care interventions have unintended effects during labor and birth. Often these effects are new problems that are "solved" with further intervention, which may in turn create even more problems. This chain of events has been called the "cascade of intervention."
This chain of events can change the course of a woman's labor in important ways, yet women and their partners are often unaware that many routine interventions can lead to a cascade of unplanned experiences and unwanted side effects.
The maternity practices that can lead to a cascade of intervention include:
In many instances, these practices cause problems because they disrupt the normal physiology of pregnancy, labor and birth — for example, by:
What is an example of the cascade of intervention?Epidural analgesia can provide very effective pain relief during labor. It also increases the risk of experiencing a sudden drop in blood pressure, a longer labor, difficulty moving about, difficulty urinating, difficulty pushing the baby out, fever, and other undesirable effects.
A variety of interventions — such as continuous electronic fetal monitoring and intravenous fluids — are widely used with epidurals to monitor, prevent or treat these effects. And others become more likely, including use of synthetic oxytocin to strengthen contractions, use of a urinary catheter to empty the bladder, and use of a vacuum extractor or forceps to help move the baby out. These in turn may have side effects that lead to the use of other interventions.
The impacts can also extend to babies. For example, epidurals increase a woman's likelihood of developing a fever; if a mother has a fever, caregivers worry that her baby may have an infection. Though few babies whose mothers have an epidural associated fever do in fact have an infection, as a precaution these babies often have blood tests and are treated with antibiotics just after birth. They may also be observed in a special nursery, which can interfere with bonding and breastfeeding.
This chain of possible effects from epidural and other interventions shows the importance of making careful, informed maternity decisions.
How can I limit the problem of a cascade of intervention?Almost every intervention has some potential to cause harm. You should make decisions about whether to have an intervention carefully. We encourage you to accept only those interventions that are more likely to offer benefit than harm. In weighing possible benefits and harms, it is important to rely on the best available evidence about potential effects, and to consider how you feel about the possible outcomes. It is also important to learn about other options that may be available.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to fully and accurately know in advance the course of a decision, and the degree to which other interventions and their effects will come into play. The best way to limit the problem of a cascade of intervention is to become informed, get all of your questions answered, set your goals and plans, and avoid interventions with the potential for harm, whenever possible.
The following may help you avoid unnecessary interventions:

"For the complete Hollis H-160 Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) story" - Click here
I am having a rough time trying to compare DPVs. In particular, Id like to know the pounds of thrust and run time comparisons between the high end SEADOOs and the Hollis or Farralon higher end units. The cost is so incredibly different that I am sure the difference must be something more than longevity since one could buy new SEA DOOs with fresh batteries every year for 5 or six years and throw away the old ones and still come out ahead compared to high end Farralon. I did use a small Farralon a few years back, but, the difference I thought was more one of balance and direction.To give the top speed doesnt help without knowing torque or foot pounds of thrust, and perhaps balance, and pull against the flow resistance of a bulky gear set up. Without a connecting cord the force could pull the unit out of ones hands or pull off ones mask etc, which is why they tell us its pressure safe to almost 600 feet(I guess). I bought two DPVs from you about a year ago, and they do help cover alot more territory SEADOO Explorers. They do have a little trouble pulling me from the surface even when neutrally bouyant. The question is , "Is it possible to get data on these units which compare apples to apples?" I have checked specs on the manufacturers websites and tried checking online with DPV clubs no one seems to know.. Thank You for any help you can give. Sincerely, Bill Nuesse MD
Typically, the Hollis or Farallon type DPV are larger and use for tech type diving. Seadoo and Bladefish are more recreational. As for the specifications that you are looking for we can only recommend contacting the manufacturers directly. We have a list of contact information for most of the companies on our warranty page. http://www.scuba.com/resources/warranty_info.asp
Have a oceanic Mako... Have had hydrogen gas detonate in motor compartment, blowing main motor compartment seal.... ... some water had entered battery compartment, dried out. The motor compartment seems to have a separate sealed compartment from battery area... Is there hydrogen gas absorption buttons inside motor compartment? Has there been problems plague this model... Its a bit spooky to read the warning label regarding hydrogen gas,.
Torque, speed, and endurance…
We have raised the bar in manufacturing with the H-160. This new innovative DPV sets the standard for tow behind vehicles. With 45lbs of thrust and a depth rating of 656ft / 200m the H-160 is the DPV of choice. With removable trim weights you have the perfect trim for salt or fresh water diving. The H-160 is operable with one hand and has a trigger switch that allows divers to vary between power settings of 50%, 75% or 100%. Select the power setting and use the thumb lock to set the underwater cruise control. All of these features make the H-160 the DPV of choice for cave, wreck, technical, and recreational diving.

H-160 - provides 45lbs of thrust
Perfect balance in the water for easy handling
User accessible battery pack (no tools required)
Selectable input (110/220V) automatic charger
5 hour recharge
Height 28.75in (73.03cm) , diameter of body 8.5in (21.59cm), and diameter at prop shroud 14.25in (36.2cm)
Weight: 48lbs (22 kg)
NiMH batteries will need several charge and discharge cycles before they will deliver their full burn time rating. During the first two or three cycles the burn times may be shortened, however after a few cycles the batteries will perform normally. It may take a few more cycles before they have been conditioned enough to reach peak performance. NiMH chemistry suffers from a high discharge rate, up to 10% day after the initial charge. High temperatures also affect this, both ambient and internal battery temperature which means keeping out of direct sunlight is critical
It is not recommended to leave the battery connected to the vehicle for longer than 48 hours if not in use. This could over-discharge and damage the battery pack. If storing for prolonged periods of time, be sure to charge the battery pack every 2-3 months to ensure a conditioned pack and to avoid damage
Please see your instruction manual for more detailed information

At last night's festivities of Celtic New Year's eve, our neighbors were wondering who WE, the people, are as all of us approach these mid-term elections. In a decade of spending, too much on WAR, by Republicans WE are offered that same old status quo by their candidates. In four years of Democrats coming to power WE have not solve the Decade's issues of alienation with our global economy, community and humanity. Both parties, together, in their polarized separation have taken little note of the will and interests of our majority.
In campaigns, political "he-said, she-said" in slimy attack ads refuse to address the issues WE, the people, know must be addressed. Alternatives such as Tea Parties only want to strangle government so no effective investment can be made for WE, the people. News entertainment personalities continue their comedy acts only for the purpose of self-promotion. Major corporations and the small minority of wealth quietly serve their own interests by avoidance of any global government participation.
Tomorrow WE will see many voting in blind ignorance of the candidates and issues. WE will see prejudice, hatred, and dogmatic ignorance create voters that emotionally look for simple answers from someone other than themselves. What WE won't see are WE, the people, as a majority taking responsibility for our own future and selecting candidates and measures that truly serve us all. What WE will see is more of us voting against someone or something than voting for candidates and measures that will serve our future.
WE will see who WE are!

I always liked how the initial reasons for the space programs were to figure out ways to drop nukes from space before they perfected ICBMs. Also the government wanted to nuke the moon in the 50s -> moon landing.
The only generally accepted adverse effect of fluoride at levels used for water fluoridation is dental fluorosis, which can alter the appearance of children's teeth during tooth development; this is mostly mild and usually only an aesthetic concern. Compared to unfluoridated water, fluoridation to 1 mg/L is estimated to cause fluorosis in one of every 6 people (range 4–21), and to cause fluorosis of aesthetic concern in one of every 22 people (range 13.6–∞). Here, "aesthetic concern" is a term used in a standardized scale based on what adolescents would find unacceptable, as measured by a 1996 study of British 14-year-olds.
Just do it.
king only found that study by coincidence anyway while searching "british 14 year olds"
"I'll go," said Chagataev. "But what will I do there? Build socialism?"
"What else?" said the secretary.
I'm seeing a connection between increased Arabic hostility to European countries and the influx of British 14 year old rape victims. Perhaps semen is in the water.
times are hard and since the majority of the internet supports child rape I've decided to follow the old mantra of "if you can't beat them, commit atrocious crimes because it's ok"

Validated and Adapted for Food Detection
The RAPID'Sakazakii Medium protocol is certified by AFNOR Certification, according to the ISO 16140 requirements as an alternative method to the ISO/TS 22964 reference standard, for the detection of Cronobacter spp. in infant formula (No. BRD: 07/22-05/12).
Nordval Validation Ref No032.
Intended Use
RAPID'Sakazakii medium is a selective chromogenic agar that is intended for the isolation and detection of Cronobacter spp. (formerly classified as Enterobacter sakazakii). The most common source of Cronobacter spp. contamination is powdered infant formula.
The principle of the medium is based on detection of a specific enzymatic activity common to all species of Cronobacter. Hydrolysis of the chromogenic substrate 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indol α-D-glucopyranoside leads to the formation of typical turquoise-colored colonies. The medium includes compounds carefully selected to promote the growth of Cronobacter spp. while suppressing interfering flora, giving the medium increased selectivity. Competing bacteria, if not completely inhibited, can form light purple or gray colonies.
Simple and Rapid Protocol : certified by AFNOR certification according to the ISO 16140
RAPID'Sakazakii medium is formulated for use in standard methods (for example, ISO 22964 reference method). The medium can also be used with a shortened protocol to test "clean" samples such as powdered infant formula with a low level of contamination. The short protocol is used to detect Cronobacter spp. in 24 hr after an 18 hr enrichment in buffered peptone water, eliminating the need for selective enrichment.

Niagara, NY (Sports Network) - A 3-pointer by Juan'ya Green in the final
moments of overtime provided the Niagara Purple Eagles with a thrilling 93-90
win over the Iona Gaels in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play at the
Gallagher Center.
Green was two assists shy of a double-double with 26 points for the Purple
Eagles in the victory (14-8, 10-1 MAAC). Ameen Tanksley recorded a double-
double with 15 points and 11 boards. Antoine Mason scored a team-high 30
points and T.J. Cline tallied 11 points off the bench as Niagara a seventh
consecutive game.
For the Gaels (14-8, 8-3), David Laury recorded a double-double with 24 points
and 16 boards. Lamont Jones was two rebounds shy of a double-double with 23
points, but also turned the ball over eight times on the night. Sean Armand,
Tre Bowman, and Curtis Dennis added 11 points apiece as Iona snapped a two-
game winning streak.
Niagara made 7-of-17 3-pointers in the first half, but Iona made 60.7 percent
from the floor in the frame to claim a 41-38 advantage at the half.
Iona held a three-point lead with 23 seconds remaining in regulation until
Green hit a 3-pointer with seven seconds remaining to tie the score at 81-81
and force overtime.
Iona was a perfect 7-of-7 at the foul-line in bonus session, but Niagara made
5-of-11 from the floor, including the clutch 3-pointer by Green as time
expired to seal the win.
Niagara was forced into 17 turnovers on the night, while Iona only gave the
ball away six times.
