An epidural numbs your body
Alison replied on
An epidural numbs your body from the waist down, not the neck down as you've indicated in your article.
I can understand your points about how pregnancy is seen as a problem--or disease--for modern medicine to "fix." I was frequently frustrated by this in my pregnancy when my overly conservative (female) doctor would detail the litany of things I shouldn't do as they could harm the baby (for example: keeping my heart rate below 140 when exercising, a guideline that was changed years ago by the ACOG). My wishes for those nine something months were largely downplayed or even ignored--or worse, seen as irresponsible and dangerous to the baby. I would love to have a midwife for my next pregnancy, but unfortunately, there don't seem to be enough in my area. I hope midwifery makes a resurgence in the coming years.
That said, I did chose an epidural during labor, but I think this was in large part due to being induced (pitocin makes labor more painful) and having inherited by mother's fast labors (I dilated 7 cm in 45 minutes--ouch!). While pain medication certainly shouldn't be seen as a given for women in labor, it truly should be a personal decision, whatever a woman decides. I'm glad I chose the epidural, as it allowed me to actually enjoy the labor. Before, I was in so much pain (and constant pain--not just during the contractions) I couldn't even think, let alone practice the lamaze breathing techniques. Good for Gisele for managing a medication-free labor, but that's certainly not for everyone.
Cultural expectations of birth
Becky replied on
I was really surprised by some of the anger that people had in response to Gisele's experience. My experience with natural childbirth was similar to hers (although I did not have a waterbirth) -- it was strenuous, but not painful, not even at the end.
But there is a cultural expectation that giving birth is the Worst Thing Ever. There's a cultural expectation that you Will Have An Epidural. These expectations are perpetuated by the media, by Hollywood (see the recent trailer for Backup Plan, for example) -- in short, often by men. And that's a huge part of the problem. Why are people choosing to believe the patriarchal cultural expectation over the experience of a woman who's been through it?

Just came across this piece about French philosopher Elisabeth Badinter's new book Conflict, Women and Mothers:
'Attacked by her critics as out of touch with the new generation she is attempting to salvage, Badinter has stuck to her guns. She says that the new image of the "ideal mother" – one who breastfeeds for six months, does not rush to return to full-time work, avoids painkillers in childbirth, rejects disposable nappies and occasionally lets her baby sleep in her bed – makes impossible demands on any woman who has a life outside of her child.
"'Good motherhood' imposes new duties that weigh heavily on those who do not keep to them. It contravenes the model we have worked for until now [and] which makes equality of the sexes impossible and women's freedom irrelevant. It is a step backwards," she said.'
Women's autonomy
Becky replied on
But natural childbirth increases a woman's autonomy while she's in labor. Then she's not stuck on her back, or denied food and (sometimes) water.
I agree that aspects of the "ideal mother" are completely inaccessible to many women. But it's more an issue of class, not feminism. Although breastfeeding saves much, much money in the long run, poorer women don't tend to have the access to lactation consultants, or money for them, or money for a pump when they go back to work. That's a problem. Women in this country generally don't have paid maternity leave, and either way, unless they can afford to stay home for longer, must go back to work by 12 weeks. Having the option to stay home longer if they so choose is important. I went back to work at 12 weeks with no regrets, but having a financially viable choice would be nice.*
Instead of complaining that breastfeeding ties women down, why not campaign to make nursing in public more accepted? That's why women feel tied down with breastfeeding -- because in many parts of the country, nursing in public is frowned upon.
Thanks for the link. I'm glad to see that the tradition of mothers judging each for their choices is alive and well.
* I will digress to bitch about smug people who claim that most mothers don't "need" to work, and if those silly women would just do the math, they'd see that they're not coming out ahead financially, what with daycare and other work-related costs (commuting, wardrobe, etc.). That argument assumes that a woman is earning much, much less than her partner.
I realize there are multiple authors on this blog . . .
Becky replied on
I must note that you are coming perilously close to making a "formula is feminist!" argument on the same blog that complained about big chains marketing veg*n items on their menu. So let me get this straight:
- Paying a large corporation like Enfamil for food for my child, when I am already equipped with better food to feed my child: feminist!
- Paying Burger King for a veggie burger for myself, when I'm on the Ohio Turnpike and have no other healthy veg*n options: not feminist!
Got it.
Elizabeth replied on
I'm a pregnant, feminist academic, and so these issues (the gendered politics of birth and medicine) are very close to my heart and thoughts these days.
Holly, I really don't think you dealt with them well here. This blog is unfocused, confused, and misdirected.
Stick to what you know; I don't think birthing politics are it.

Tiffany replied on
I don't entirely know what you think blogs are for, but I used to come to Bitch to be informed. It's why I read a lot of things. Twice now you've posted extremely ill conceived articles with little foundation, ridiculous conclusions and expected us to explain things to you. I think you may be better off remaining a film reviewer until you have the time to do more in depth research on what you're writing about.

kiki replied on
She's right you know. This was not a good entry. It was poorly written and confusing. The only reason I kept reading was I thought maybe it would all come together in the end. It did not.
Just stop
Tiffany replied on
The implication of this statement as it was reported in the magazines seemed to be that Gisele's birth was painless because she is generally a superior woman.
Superior, that is, as a direct result of her attractiveness. We are either supposed to be awed by her abilities, or angered by her condescension. We are supposed to think she is either lying to retain her sexy image, or because she wants to make us all feel even worse than her beauty already does. In the context of celebrity news, it is necessary for us to hate them, or hate ourselves.
Where do you get this stuff from? What supports your conclusions? And you know your audience is primarily American right? No one here gives a flying about the Daily Hate Mail.
I know you write for the Guardian and C4. But I also know, for a fact, they're both guilty of the same kind of journalism you like attaching to the easy bait.
The Mail likes to take its philosophies from 1950s Freudian psychoanalysis - in a culture predicated on self-gratification, women must be masochistic. In a way, it's nice to know where we stand.
I couldn't even finish. I got to the epidural part that you got so wrong, which even I know and I'm a petless and childless woman and couldn't continue.
This is embarassing. I'm really disappointed in the quality of these posts.
Holly Grigg-Spall replied on
'Where do I get this stuff from?' My own head.
These blogs are tagged 'social commentary' for a reason - they are comments on society. What 'supports' the statements of any of the bloggers here at Bitch? I am assuming you're looking for stats, demographic breakdowns, field research, interviews with sources and the like - you'll find that's investigative journalism, and not social commentary blogging.
I am here to analytically assess contemporary media relating to women's reproductive health. Bitch is a feminist 'response' to pop culture. These are my 'responses' to pop culture from my feminist standpoint.
I was hired for my voice, not to present annotated academic essays or pieces of investigative reporting.
Exactly how would you like to see me 'support' the writing you picked out? What would you see as adequate evidence for the veracity of my claims?
I recall in the other post you were similarly outraged about my lack of research. Although were I to present research as dry statistical data, would you not then find issue with the collector of that research? You don't like the Daily Mail, you don't like the Guardian, you don't like Channel 4 - that's a pretty wide spectrum from left to right, so what media outlets do you find informative?
And speaking of research - a quick Google of my name does not an astute assessment of my career make. Why didn't you call my former employers and interview them? Perhaps call Bitch and ask for a breakdown of their decision making process before hiring me?
You stated you did not read the entire article, so your critical assessment of my writing is very poorly supported. If you never reached the conclusion of the piece, how do you know it was 'ridiculous'? What was ridiculous about it?
If you came here to be informed...on what exactly? The details of Gisele's labor? How to go about a painless birth? A directory of the best midwives? This is social commentary, once again.
The definition of 'commentary' is: 'interpretation, analysis, assessment, appraisal, criticism'. Shall we find a definition of 'social commentary' too? Here's one: the act of rebelling against an individual, or a group of people by rhetorical means. Here's another: the act of expressing an opinion on the nature of society.

Angeline Gillis replied on
I'm a registered nurse who works in Labour and Delivery. One of my coworkers, also an RN, does hypno-birthing classes on her days off. Now I know every woman's experience is different and everyone has different pain thresholds or ways to deal with pain when it comes to labour, but I was very impressed with the level of control the women who have participated in these classes have. For the most part, they seem to be able to mentally and physically deal with labour. Without participating in these classes, I've only seen the same level of calmness and control in women who opt not to have drugs a handful of times. I think it's something worth looking into, and I know if/when I choose to have kids I will look into it for myself.
People need to stop being
Anokh replied on
People need to stop being self righteous over how they birth their children. Who cares, really, as long as your child is healthy and happy and you are healthy and happy with the experience.
I had a home birth with my first child and we both almost died and ultimately ended up in the hospital.
I had my second child in the hospital and much to my surprise the doctors were very nice and accommodating and my wishes were respected in every situation. Don't let scaremongers from either side sway you.
Many women and even my midwife laid a lot of blame at my feet over the first experience - that there was somehow something wrong with me for not having a "happy home birth". Yes birth is a natural event but nature is impartial and life can be "nasty, brutish and short" so patting yourself on the back for having a painless birth or feeling guilty for a C-Section is just a waste of everyone's time.
Oxytocin the LOVE hormone!!
ariadne replied on
Holly, this is a great commentary - having worked as an apprentice lay midwife, and having given birth twice without medication (one in esctasy, and one in yes, 'pain'!!) I find this inquiry into birth experience, especially when it comes time to give birth yourself, beyond epidurals and c-sections so important. Birth can be painful AND/OR ecstatic, and yes birth walks the edge of death in life. I used to love reading (i guess i still do!) women's in-depth home birth stories when I first studied midwifery, which gave me such a wealth of insight into the sensations and inner-outer workings of un-medicated births. There is really good work on female hormone/physiology of birth being done by French OB Michel Odent, who writes of oxytocin as the "Love" hormone, and is ideally what we want to have going in free flow during the process of birth. Oxytocin flows when a woman feels secure, relaxed etc, yet is inhibited by adrenaline release (adrenaline is stimulated by stress) - but this is so little studied! Though is intuitively I think what many midwives work towards/with - I suppose ideally being able to love the women through labour, to support mother's sense of safety and release is so important to the process and her experience. The 2Oth century medical focus of birth has been so much on pain regulation without looking to deeper experience (and physiology) of this always awesome event.
Holly, I know this is an old
Lindsay Craven replied on
Holly, I know this is an old piece and noone has commented for awhile, but I really appreciate reading your posts and just wanted to say thanks. I am seriously disappointed and shocked by the language of people like Tiffany, who seem to think that whatever we read in a blog we should take as gospel. Unlike her, I am excited to read about things that get dialogue going and prompt me to explore issues I may not have thought about before, whether I agree with them or not. Ironic that by being rude and snarky and refusing to discuss anything, they usually end up making your writing sound a lot more credible than they would like--I loved the comment about formulaic feminism--according to that the formula is to define yourself the way the commenter sees fit! I am one of those mean feminists who doesn't have kids yet (and I look forward to them, mind you) but still thinks it's vital to talk about the issue of motherhood, a topic that is supposed to be off limits to me, apparently, until I have experienced the miracle of childbirth according to feminist formula. I cannot believe the superiority of some of the mothers who comment here, who wish to have no dialogue of the implication of certain aspects of birth control, birth, and motherhood on all women, feminist or not. It honestly disgusts me. But anyway, keep up the good work, I am a fan, and hurry up and get out all your good ideas before motherhood erases any critical thinking skills you have (and yes I know this is hugely offensive, but I would say if you're offended by it, you are probably guilty of it.)

Mostly for tubers and fishers, but suited us just fine because we typically don't use the facilities - just the hookups and later, the Dumping station. It was difficult to move a big RV around after using the dump station - just not enough turn radius. I wouldn't say the restrooms and shower were dirty...just looked like they were 100 years old - stained and rusted (looked pretty bad). But truly, not dirty. Nice staff and a beautiful location for a peaceful stop.

Loved this park! It is small and really a destination park, not a place to overnight, though we did overnight there to visit friends in Blacksburg. Our site backed up to the New River. It was peaceful and lovely. Good electric and water. Dump station but no sewer hookups. The campground is also a tubing company and most people seem to come there for river activities. There are a lot of tent campers, so be advised that the air will be smoky. The Wi-Fi signal was strong, but I was unable to connect, leaving me to believe their server was down. I did get a marginal 3G signal on Verizon and a usable 1X signal for tethering my netbook so I didn't miss the Wi-Fi. The young woman in the office is delightfully friendly. The campground is quite a bit off the beaten path. - Road Princess

We paid Passport America rate. Campground is right on the New River, great for fishing and tubing. Sites are very narrow the 6 RV sites with gravel are level. Campground is very clean and well maintained. Water pressure was great, over the air TV reception is spotty due to mountains. Owner was very helpful and accommodating. Train noise was not a problem, we hardly even heard it after the first night. Would stay here again!! - 20andOut

No telling how deep Greenwood's girls basketball team could go this postseason if only the final four minutes of each quarter counted.
Woodmen coach Debbie Guckenberger is in no hurry to find out.
Her team literally saved its best for last in Friday night's 40-32 victory against county rival Whiteland, outscoring the Warriors by a total of 30-9 when factoring in the last half of the four quarters.
The semifinal win at the Class 4A sectional at Franklin Community High School moved 12th-ranked Greenwood (18-4) into tonight's 7:30 championship game opposite No. 9 Franklin Central (18-4). The Flashes advanced by defeating New Palestine 61-23 in Friday's second semifinal.
This marks the first time in eight years the programs will meet, the Flashes scoring a 53-28 decision against the Woodmen in a first-round sectional game in February 2005.
"They are very athletic and they defend very well," said Guckenberger of a Franklin Central team that takes the floor having won nine of its past 10 games. "It's going to be tough."
Not that Friday's battle against Whiteland resembled a picnic.
After dropping a 43-42 thriller at Greenwood on Jan. 4, coach Kyle Shipp's Warriors had all the confidence necessary to go toe-to-toe with the Woodmen.
This was demonstrated early as Whiteland marched to a 7-2 advantage and even late with Whiteland trailing by only four points with 5:31 remaining in the game.
But just like it did when it
finished the first quarter with a 9-0 scoring run and the second with a 10-0 burst, Greenwood capitalized down the stretch.
A one-handed runner off the glass by senior guard Jordan Unversaw at 5:18 made it 32-26. Nearly three minutes of clock would be exhausted before more points were scored, and they were huge with Woodmen forward Deauna Evans burying a 3-pointer from the left wing with 2:23 showing to push the margin to nine.
"That's huge late in the game, but I'll give you two others that were huge. The shot they hit at the end of the first quarter and the shot they hit right before halftime," said Shipp, alluding to Sarah McLeod's buzzer-beating chippy and Kelsie Ratliff's trey from the top of the key, respectively.
"Our kids fought. They gave a great effort tonight. What I told them after the game was I was proud of how they battled and proud of the people they are. I have no doubt they will all be successful people in life."
All five of Whiteland's starters are seniors who Friday played their final game in a Warriors uniform. Guard Chelsea Perry produced a team-high 12 points before fouling out late, with backcourt mate Kaitlyn Phillips adding 11.
Leading all scorers with 21 was the 5-foot-9 Ratliff, who drained three triples and also contributed to Greenwood's sizable 30-20 rebounding advantage with four boards of her own. Neither team shot well, the Woodmen making 13 of 38 field goals (.342) compared to Whiteland's 11 of 42 (.262).
"It's always down to the wire. It's always going to be a battle when we play Whiteland. They are a good team that is well-coached and plays hard," Guckenberger said. "I felt the key tonight was that we did a much better job defensively than we did the first time we played them this season."
Greenwood, which has six seniors of its own, received six points and four rebounds from the 5-10 Evans. Six-foot junior post Brittany Gray came off the bench to record a game-best eight boards for the Woodmen, her total barely eclipsing 5-10 forward Michaela Harris, who led Whiteland (10-12) with seven.

Stars Join Battle against Factory Farming Methods; Video Campaign to Mark Launch of National Vegetarian Week
STARS such as Sir Paul McCartney, Joanna Lumley and Martin Shaw appear in a new video to mark National Vegetarian Week, launched yesterday.
The short film has been produced by Viva!, which is campaigning against factory farm practices.
The issue will be highlighted in a national march and rally in central London on Saturday.
Those attending will be shown the film, in which Sir Paul says: 'There are a whole lot of things wrong with our planet at the moment.
'We hear a lot of words from big business and from Government but they don't seem to do much about it. But we can do something about it.
'We can help the environment, we can help end cruelty to animals and we can help improve our own health, and all you have to do is go vegetarian.'
Viva! say 45 billion animals were slaughtered in the world last year, one billion in Britain, and most of them were factory farmed.
Actress Joanna Lumley, a strong supporter of the group, says: 'We've got to realise that we're creatures of this planet, treat living things with respect and the earth will show respect back.'
Actor Martin Shaw says: 'If people, before they eat their meals, were taken to a factory farm and saw the degradation and torture they are party to, I don't think most would want to carry on.'
Others who appear in the film are singer Chrissie Hynde, prominent barrister and Viva! patron Michael Mansfield, QC, actor Jerome Flynn, and TV presenter Wendy Turner-Webster.
Vegetarianism - factfilea
n Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish, or poultry. Vegans are vegetarians who abstain from eating or using all animal products, including milk, cheese, other dairy items, eggs, wool, silk, and leather.
n Among the many reasons for being a vegetarian are health, ecological, and religious concerns, dislike of meat, compassion for animals, belief in non-violence, and economics.
n Vegetarianism was advocated by the ancient Greeks. Pythagoras and his followers believed that animals should not be killed and eaten because they have souls. Plato believed plant foods promoted good health, while other Greek thinkers felt that eating animal flesh was naturally repugnant and should be rejected on aesthetic grounds.
n In later times, famous writers such as, Voltaire, Paley, Pope, Shelley, Bentham and Lamartine all expressed similar opinions about the desirability of a flesh-free diet. …

Gamzee X Reader
All those Jokes
Gamzee slumped on his couch and let out an annoyed sigh. How could he tell her? He had know _____ for just over 2 years now.
He wanted to tell her that he loved her, but every time he tried, it just ended up in some corny joke. Or... Something about faygo.
I mean, sure. They made _____ laugh, but that wasn't what he wanted. He wanted her to be his... And no one else's. It also didn't help that she had been hanging out with Karkat a lot lately. And it was making him jealous.
Gamzee then stood up and walked out the door. He decided that he might as well try one more time. He walked down the street, staring up at the sky. He soon reached ________'s house. He stopped, and looked at the front door. His eyes then opened with shock as he saw Karkat standing there. ______ was standing with the door open, and Karkat was right outside it. Gamzee quickly moved to where he was hidden behind a bush, but could hear what they were saying. Karkat looked down at his feet, and he was blushing. _______ just looked at him very confused. "_______.... I-I.... I LOVE YOU!" He said, blushing even more as he said it.
It was now _______'s turn to look down at her feet and blush. She then looked up at Karkat. "Oh Karkat.... I'm sorry but... I love someone else." She said with a gentle tone in her voice. Karkat looked heart broken. Gamzee scrambled out of ______'s yard quickly. Then Karkat walked down the driveway.
He then spotted Gamzee and walked over to him. "YOU BETTER TREAT HER PRETTY FUCKIN WELL ASS." He said, and then walked away. Gamzee looked at him, dumbstruck, and then walked up to ________'s door. He took a deep breath and knocked.
_______ opened the door and looked up at Gamzee. She smiled at him. "Oh hi Gamzee! I didn't expect you to come over!" She chirped happily.
"Um CaN i Um CoMe In?" He asked, putting his hands in his pockets.
"Yeah sure!" _____ said, and moved aside, letting him come in, and closing the door behind him. He walked over to her couch, and sat down. He took a deep breath.
"OkAy _______ YoU kNoW aLl ThOsE rEaLlY wEiRd JoKeS i'Ve BeEn TeLlIng?" _________ just nodded. "WeLl.... ThEy WeReN't SuPoSeD tO bE jOkEs. ThEy WeRe Me TrYiNg To TeLl YoU... I lOvE yOu ________"
He look up at her with a very serious face. It scared _________ a little, but she smiled, and hugged Gamzee tightly. "I love you to Gamzee... And I have for a while."
Gamzee looked down at her and smiled, a light blush coming across his cheeks, he then wrapped his arm around her, and kissed her on the forehead.

MADRID (AP) — The two-year doping ban for cyclist and former Olympic silver medalist Antonio "Toni" Tauler has been upheld by Spain's National Court.
The court said Friday Tauler's appeal had been rejected because "no irregularities could be detected" either in the gathering, transport or analysis of his samples. He tested positive for a banned blood-booster EPO in 2010.
Tauler won silver at the 2008 Beijing Olympics with fellow Spanish cyclist Joan Llaneras.
On Monday, the major doping investigation in cycling, Operation Puerto, goes to trial after a seven-year wait.

Hip Hop fans are a funny breed I tell you. Many folks for many years have looked to Common as a savior of sorts. It can all be traced to his seminal cut "I Used To Love Her," because anyone that capable of breaking down the game like that is surely capable of righting the wrongs, right? But there is no saving what doesn't want to be saved; all he can do is write the wrongs. As Com's traditional b-boy evolved into an experimentalist, his fans battled his direction and tried to keep him in their nicely constructed boxes. The result has been one of the most talented brothers to ever grace this culture being held to an unwavering scrutiny that would break most men. Like the old adage goes, you can't please them all. It has been apparent Common doesn't adhere to traditional thinking, which would explain why he has gone and pleased them all.
Yeah, yeah, I know. Some of you reading this aren't pleased, but shit, did you hear the reaction to "Electric Circus." Album number six is Common coming full circle, returning to a vibe that etched his name into the annals of history in 1993. It just so happened that a friend and fellow Chi-Town native has brought back a sound that was the signature of the early 90's. Some things are just meant to BE.
Much like his PNC Kanye West, Common brings his album to the masses with a single like no other on the radio. Backed by one of 'Ye's finest beats to date, Common brings you to "The Corner." A vivid cut that mixes Hip Hop's street sensibilities with Com's gift for analysis. While many will likely expect the album to follow that sound, "BE" on the whole is much smoother than its hard single. This will become more apparent with the silky second single "Go" hits the airwaves. "Faithful" and "Love Is" follow a similar vibe, and both feature Common at his best touching on something close to everyone's heart.
As has been the case his entire career, Common is at his best when he is getting introspective. Which is why the intro and title track are among the finest moments (the ridiculous beat from Kanye and Dilla doesn't hurt either). The pinnacle comes with; "Waitin' for the lord to rise/I looked into my daughters eyes/and realize I'ma learn through her/the messiah might even return through her/if I'ma do it, I gotta change the world through her." Of course Com has never been a slouch when it comes to the art of storytelling and "Testify" is no exception. His twisting story of the Queenpin is highlighted by Kanye's ever-excellent use of vocal samples. Kanye's horns on "Real People" damn near steal the show too, if only Common didn't keep up so effortlessly with his breezy flow.
Like any great album, there is no shortage of description or accolades that I could fill this review with. I could go on for days, cause I haven't even mentioned the like of "Chi City" or "It's Your World," but I only have so much room here. So maybe I'll get to the part that everyone wants to know; is this better than Resurrection? It's a great album and some of the easiest 42 minutes of listening you'll ever do, but better than his sophomore opus? I don't know, ask me in 12 years. For now, just let it BE.

The data were used to compare features of navigation system interfaces in terms of their support of drivers' needs for guidance and contribution to safe driving. Certain design principles (which apply while driving, not necessarily for trip planning) emerge from these analyses.
Contextual guidance information on a screen display (including landmarks and other orientation cues) is potentially helpful, provided it is automatic, or system driven. However, the potentially greater allocation of visual attention to the display increases the risk of insufficient attention being directed to the road.
Voice guidance, with context-rich information, and without additional or concurrent visual information, is more effective than displaying guidance information on a visual screen.
Automatic Voice guidance appears to be the most effective and safest. Possible explanations for the superiority of the automatic voice system are that the system can better anticipate upcoming decision points because it "knows" the road network, it frees drivers from having to decide and initiate interactions, and it causes drivers to drive at a pace established by the system. There is growing evidence that voice instructions with a redundant screen display is the optimal configuration for a navigation interface ( Parkes & Burnett, 1993; Verwey, 1993). Indeed, the Ideal Navigator condition (i.e., automatic voice messages and a redundant visual display) produced the best QOD scores.

Glanbia revenues rise to €2.88 billion
Food group achieves double-digit earnings growth for third consecutive year
Glanbia chairman Liam Herlihy, group finance director Siobhán Talbot and managing director John Moloney at the announcement of Glanbia's 2012 full-year results yesterday in Kilkenny
Food group Glanbia has reported revenues of €2.88 billion for 2012, a 4.8 per cent increase on the previous year, driven by a strong performance in its global nutritionals division.
Pretax earnings for 2012 rose 9 per cent to €198.8 million, while the company also reported a better than expected 14.2 per cent jump in adjusted earnings per share to 52.9 cent.
This is the third consecutive year Glanbia has achieved double-digit earnings growth.
The company said the improved numbers came on the back of a strong performance in its global nutritionals division which saw revenue grow by 20 per cent on the back of "positive markets and strong operational performances in each business unit".
"We are in a stronger position than ever to drive the business forward and capitalise on our competitive advantage in both business-to-business and business-to-consumer nutritional products and solutions," group managing director John Moloney said.
Higher costs
The company's US cheese and global nutritionals business grew 11 per cent to €1.4 billion, up from €1.3 billion in 2011 despite a 6 per cent decline in US cheese prices. Some 52 per cent of Glanbia's revenues come from the US cheese and global nutritionals division.
The Dairy Ireland revenue increased 2.4 per cent to €631 million, despite a "challenging year in both consumer products and agribusiness". Higher input cost prices in both the feed and fertiliser product categories contributed to margin pressure across the sector.
Glanbia undertook a complex restructuring last year which meant the establishment a joint venture between the plc and Glanbia co-op which will be known as Glanbia Ingredients Ireland. The enterprise – which means the co-op's share in the plc is reduced to 41.3 per cent – will be the largest dairy processing business in the country.
The company said the restructuring was part of its strategic approach to the potential opportunity for expansion in Irish dairy processing, which will arise due to the abolition of EU milk quotas in 2015.
The group also invested in capital projects and acquisitions in 2012, which amounted to €115 million, including the €45 million purchase of Aseptic Solutions in the US to enhance its nutritional ingredient technologies division.
In its outlook for 2013, Glanbia indicated that it expected adjusted earnings per share growth, on a constant currency basis, of between 8 and 10 per cent for the full year from a base of 51.02 cents.
Mr Moloney said the company had the capacity to spend up to €200 million on acquisitions in 2013, while still having a prudent balance sheet.
However, he remained cautious about the global environment.
"There are some headwinds with an uncertain global economic environment and challenging Irish retail environment, but the Group is well positioned to maintain its growth momentum," said Mr Moloney.
The board is proposing a final dividend of 5.43 cent per share, bringing the total dividend for the year to 9.09 cent per share, representing an increase of 10 per cent.

Utah Congressman Rob Bishop is 'king of earmarks'
95% of his requests are for past donors to his campaigns
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
Utah's three U.S. House members have completely different philosophies about requesting "earmarks" that order federal agencies to fund specific projects they like.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, requested none for upcoming 2010 appropriations bills, and he campaigned against earmarks. Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, requested relatively few (totaling $56 million), and only 3.5 percent were for campaign donors. But Rep. Rob Bishop requested $6.5 billion worth, and 95 percent are for past campaign donors.
He requests so much, in part, because he passes along virtually all requests made to him. "My concept is basically that if an earmark is asked of us, and it appears to be for a legitimate project, we pass it on — because appropriators have to look at it and make that call (on whether it is funded) anyway," Bishop said.
Also, he is on the House Armed Services Committee, so much of what he requests is for defense contractors. Those requests tend to be for very expensive weapons systems — and such contractors also happen to be donors to his campaigns because of his committee role.
Finding such data is easier this year because the House this month began requiring members to post on their Web sites the earmarks they request (senators need not do so yet). That comes after President Barack Obama campaigned against earmarks for inflating spending for sometimes silly projects, although he also requested them as a senator.
Chaffetz also made earmarks a campaign issue that he used to help defeat former Rep. Chris Cannon, R-Utah. In last year's campaign, Chaffetz said, "Until there's reform, I will not ask for them. They're a cancer in the system, and I want to extract them."
Matheson requested $56.2 million worth of earmarks for 2010, or less than 1 percent of what Bishop did. Most were on behalf of local governments for such things as specific roads, trails or water systems. Only one was on behalf of a campaign donor, L-3 Communications, for $2 million for a driving simulator for soldiers.
Examples of some other earmarks Matheson requested include: $1.6 million to complete construction of the Timpanogos Cave National Monument visitors center; $3.8 million for a navigation system at the St. George Airport; $998,000 for energy-efficient outdoor lights at the Utah Shakespearean Festival; and $1.1 million to help revitalize the Jordan River corridor in Salt Lake County.
"I request funding for projects that have merit for improving public safety, growing the economy and enhancing the quality of life in Utah," Matheson said.
"I am comfortable putting my name alongside all these requests. Whether it is to help expand Uintah County's drug court or to bring city water mains up to current fire codes, I look to local officials for the most critical needs in their communities," he added.
The king of earmarks among Utah's House members is Bishop, whose $6.5 billion in requests was 115 times more than what Matheson made, and 95 percent of it went to campaign donors.
Just two of his requests — both for Boeing — accounted for almost all of the value of his requests: $4.2 billion to buy another 15 C-17 cargo planes, and $1.75 billion for the Global Ballistic Missile Defense system.
"Part of that was we were reacting to rumors that Obama's budget will cut the C-17, which many of us think is a bad idea. That was a multi-member request. I was not the only one requesting it," Bishop said.
He adds that sometimes administrations intentionally cut their defense budgets — to make them appear leaner — knowing that Congress will add back key programs through earmarks. "It's a game that administrations of both parties have played," he said.
He adds that defense contractors come to him with requests for earmarks because he is on the Armed Forces committee, "and because almost all of the military installations in Utah are in my district."

"Banff" Top 5 Page for this destination Banff by doreenellen
Banff Travel Guide: 502 reviews and 1,128 photos
Banff we read is a little peace of heaven with Rundle and Cascade mountains as a backdrop, we agree entirely. It was my favourite place of our trip.
We stayed at the Ptarmigan Inn which was in the main street and very central. The hotel was very comfortable, with a restaurant and bar. There was also internet service in reception.
We had many excursions arranged for the area of Banff and enjoyed them all. We rode up the Sulpher Mountain on the Brewsters Condola which was amazing. An 8 minute ride to the top - 7,486 feet. where you could see a grand view of the Bow Valley below. The Bow Falls, and Lake Minnewanka. We walked along the walkways and around the top on the virgin snow and took lots of photos of the mountains and town of Banff way below It is just a short taxi away from Banff..
During our stay in Banff, we toured all around the National Park which was the first national park in Canada and saw lots of wild life, like Elk, Big horn sheep, wolves, etc.
The deep canyons like Johnston Canyon were really amazing, especially in the snow. Bow River which runs through Banff is the longest river in th Banff National Park.
We saw Banff Springs Hotel which can take 1,700 people, and had a tour of Lake Louise Chateau by Lake Louise. Next day even had lunch at Lake Louise Lodge by the Ski Jump. Also saw places like Johnston Canyon and much much more%
Rundle Memorial United Church 104 Banff Avenue looks lovely against the mountain backdrop.
Lake Louise was a sight to see and much better than the photographs we had seen. It was lovely to see it in the snow but would love to return in the summer too to get a boat ride on the lake. It made a lovely picture
- Pros:Wonderful scenery and lakes
- Cons:None
- In a nutshell:Heavenly place where you must visit both in Winter and Summer

This sure is a most wonderful region - thanks for a fine page!
Ah yes - the Rocky Mountains are gorgeous and seductive - once you've been there you continually find reasons to go back!! Good job on your pages!! ~Alicja~
We went to St. James Gate pub & stayed in the Ptarmigan - Banff is beautiful in Summer & as your pictures show - also in winter
Very nice! We are going to Banff, come October (2005). You've stirred our anticipation a bit - no alot!
2.The trail that leads to a lookout called the Big Beehive from this lake is usually snow laden but clear by July. From the trail at the front of the hotel go right and follow signs.
Banff looks lovely! It's easy to understand why this was your favourit place!
Great page about Banff Doreen! This is such a beautiful place! Great to see Lake Louise in the snow!
will re-check these pages before I venture off to Banff, and will take notes then. Thanks for tips. Loved the wintry photo's
Triffic page-i want to go there-looks fantastic-love the wintery scenes..
Great Banff page Doreen, and when you go to live there dont forget to invite me - lol, that Irish Bar sounds great :-)

The past little while has seen a lot of talk about where the X-Men franchise is going after "X-Men: Days Of Future Past," and how it will lead into "X-Men: Apocalypse" and whatnot. And while that speculation is sorta interesting (even if the latter movie is still two year away), it might be nice to focus on 'DOFP' first. Well, Fox is doing just that, by dropping a brand-new clip from the movie today.
Trask Industries head Bolivar Trask (played by a spectacled, mustachioed Peter Dinklage) appears in this one, promising no human casualties from his new line of Sentinels. But someone at the conference table doesn't like what's going down, and that's Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), who is soon doing her nude, blue, punching, flipping and kicking thing. It's fun stuff and right in the spirit we expect from Bryan Singer and co.
"X-Men: Days Of Future Past" drops on May 23rd. Watch below.

Planning on hitting at least one or two of the TN omniums this summer when they come up.

aww i love you too. Actually i like all of you, it's one of the reasons i keep coming back here to annoy you all.
Good chance I'll be at Fouche as well. It'll be a decide the week before if the fitness is there kind of thing.
No 2013 races yet he in New England, but here's my prediction: pack fodder.
Having a new baby boy more than makes up for that, though. :)
I was at the race (cat 4) but not used to the narrower, packed road. They changed the course from last year, so it's a downhill finish on the narrowest part of the course. I spent a lot of time in front, then gave up on the last lap. A bad night's sleep and an uncomfortable course with cactus along side and sometimes hanging INTO the road will do that. Pack finish for me.
See you at VOS? Hope your ribs get better! What happened?
Don't yell at me. Cherry Pie W Cat 4, 23rd of 25. NP of 178. It must go up! Even so, it's hard racing with (grand)children.
Last year was my first year and I'm amazed how much I learned over the course of the season. I can imagine how much more clever the guys are that have been doing this a few years...
I crashed at the UCSB road race in Santa Maria on 1/26. "Ribs 3-7 fractured/displaced, and a 25% pneumothorax". I'm doing the TT and the RR (on my back up road bike, a huge steel thing, since I won't have my replacement frame until late tomorrow), but skipping the crit to protect the ribs for another week. Current plan is to be back in the crits for the Focus GP.
ex can u come to ohioland. I want to meet the man, the myth, and the legend!
please hit me up when ur in cleveland. I'll take you out for a beer and a ride.
hold on their fat boy. Who said i was the female on this date? I'm always the pitcher!
just saying maybe ex is the ****
why am i always the ****?

Copy the entire address and then open a new window. Paste the copied address into the address bar BUT change the format from .flv to either: .mpg, .mpeg, .wmv or .avi
And finally when you have the correct address for the movie in either of those formats place it in a download client such as Download Accelerator or Flashget etc.

Nedocromil sodium is a mast cell stabilizer. Nedocromil sodium inhibits the release of mediators from cells involved in hypersensitivity reactions. Decreased chemotaxis and decreased activation of eosinophils have also been demonstrated.
In vitro studies with adult human bronchoalveolar cells showed that nedocromil sodium inhibits histamine release from a population of mast cells having been defined as belonging to the mucosal sub type and inhibits beta-glucuronidase release from macrophages.
Pharmacokinetics and Bioavailability
Nedocromil sodium exhibits low systemic absorption. When administered as a 2% ophthalmic solution in adult human volunteers, less than 4% of the total dose was systemically absorbed following multiple dosing. Absorption is mainly through the nasolacrimal duct rather than through the conjunctiva. It is not metabolized and is eliminated primarily unchanged in urine (70%) and feces (30%).

May 24, 2016
SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) -- After six years of planning and 18 months of construction, Jekyll Island's new convention center is opening to the public that paid for it.
Gov. Nathan Deal celebrated the milestone with Jekyll Island officials Sunday afternoon. The 128,000-square-foot convention facility is the centerpiece of $50 million in recent improvements to the island state park funded by Georgia taxpayers.
The Jekyll Island Authority says it's already lined up more than 200 convention groups through 2016, worth about $40 million in total business. Still, authority director Jones Hooks expects budgets will remain tight until two privately-built convention hotels open by 2014.
Hooks says the state investment was needed to turn around years of declining tourism and lost conventions. The island's old convention center was built in 1961.

Graphene Patterned After Moth Eyes Could Give Us 'Smart Wallpaper'
Tweaking the structure of graphene so that it matches patterns found in the eyes of moths could one day give us "smart wallpaper," among a host of other useful technologies.
Tweaking the structure of graphene so that it matches patterns found in the eyes of moths could one day give us "smart wallpaper," among a host of other useful technologies.
Researchers from South Korea have created a robotic insect that's capable of jumping and landing on an aquatic surface, a unique mode of transportation found only in specialized animals.
Ah, spring has sprung. The weather's warm, the trees are starting to bud, and robots are frolicking about — including ATRIAS, a two-legged bot developed by researchers at Oregon State University.
Since 2007, researchers at the Maryland Robotics Center have been steadily upgrading Robo Raven, a super-realistic robotic bird that's so lifelike it even fools the real thing. Its developers recently unveiled two new versions, including one that can take off by itself.
Researchers led by Stanford engineer Elliot Hawkes have created a pair of gecko-inspired gloves that enable users up to 200 pounds to scale smooth, vertical panes of glass. As one biomechanical engineer put it: "This is a really big deal."
Classic robots are absolutely weird, but there can be something unnerving about seeing dogs, snakes, bees, fish, and birds in robotic form. From uncanny headless creatures to mechanical snakes that can squeeze their way up a person's leg, here are the robotic critters we can't stop staring at.
If you described a shark as a toothy torpedo covered in sandpaper, you wouldn't be too far off the mark. It's that rough sandpapery skin that gives sharks their highly efficient swimming abilities, and scientists finally understand why.
The incredible properties of hagfish slime have fascinated scientists for decades, but researchers are only just beginning to make sense of this mucilaginous secretion. In doing so, they hope to create superfibers that could one day be used in everything from bullet-proof vests to artificial tendons.
That somebody is German engineering firm Festo. The company, which has a history of turning to nature for inspiration, is also responsible for this mechanical seagull and these claw-tipped Doc Ock arms (which were modeled after an elephant's trunk).
Designed by German engineering firm Festo, these claw-tipped, artificially intelligent arms were designed to mimic the utility and movement of an elephant's trunk – but the resemblance to Dock Ock's writhing limbs is just uncanny.
Engineers often take inspiration from animal designs because they're more efficient than machines are. In the case of owl wings, nature has a major advantage over human engineering: owl wings are uncannily quiet. Now, researchers are considering outfitting wind turbines with an upscaled equivalent – if they can figure…
We love all this creepy/cute furniture inspired by animals and bugs. Some of it gets a little macabre, too.
Everyone, say hello to RoboBee. RoboBee is inspired by the biology of a fly – otherwise, it's exactly what it sounds like. And it is amazing.
Spiny headed worms are a clingy lot. They're intestinal parasites with long, cactus-like heads that are perfect for penetrating, and then grabbing hold of, the insides of their host's digestive organs. Now, bioengineers have co-opted these hanger-ons' latching mechanisms for something therapeutic: skin grafts.
Unsatisfied with the crawling, writhing, coiling and climbing abilities of their existing hoard of robotic snakes, members of Carnegie Mellon University's Biorobotics Laboratory have gone and given their mechanical serpent a brand new talent: the ability to wrap itself in a stranglehold around pretty much anything…
Now that BigDog can throw concrete slabs like it's nobody's business, it would be a mistake to assume that the humble quadrotor isn't going through a similar evolution in form and function. Watch as this avian-inspired micro UAV uses its talons to snatch objects like an eagle.
Our technologies are becoming more biological with each passing year. And here's the latest breakthrough: Caltech engineers have developed an integrated computer chip that can learn to heal its own injuries.
When the pending robopocalypse strikes, you may be tempted to seek refuge in the water. Don't do it — and watch this video to see why. It's the HiBot ACM-R5 robotic snake, a twirling and swirling amphibious machine developed by Japanese researchers. And what's just as remarkable (or is that horrifying?) is that it…
You remember Cheetah, don't you? Back in March, DARPA released video of the robotic quadruped galloping at speeds of up to 18 miles per hour. At the time, 18 mph was a new record, outstripping the previous one by just shy of five miles per hour.
People who go on social networking sites are often compared to ant colonies — but it may be truer than anyone realizes. A new study from the University of Madrid suggests that the behavior of real-life ants could inspire developers to improve the way these sites function. By constructing an algorithm modeled off the…

These matzos are entirely hand made by ultra orthodox Torah Jews, well versed in the laws of Matzot baking, under the supervision of Badaz Yore Deah with the direction of R' Shlomo Machpud. All Matzot enter the oven with a stick covered in disposable lining paper, and many other stringencies are observed, from the time of kneading, till the completion of baking, in less than 18 minutes, as befits g-d fearing Jews who are stringent in Mitzva obeservance. Free from Tevel and Shviit, Challah seperated according to Jewish Law. Every care has been taken to guarantee that the Matzot are crisp, fresh and tasty. Mehadrin Min Hamehadrin baked in B'nei Brak, Israel . This item is priced below value.
While we take much precaution in packaging matzos to arrive as shipped in tact, some matzos may arrived cracked. Due to the nature of this item, it is acceptable and expected and so we do not accept returns or cancellations based on this claim.

Furniture polishing is probably one of my least favorite chores to do, and I tend to put it off as much as I can. Since I do put it off so much, my wood tends to get dull fast, and even after I have polished and cleaned, it tends to look a little lackluster.
I have tried other wood polishes in the past, and some of them were decent, but nothing that really blew me away and gave my wood the look it should have.
I happened to catch a commercial for Dutch Glow one night. Now while I'm usually skeptical about products advertised on TV, I figured for the price of $10 plus shipping and handling I would give it a try and see how it went.
Click Here if you're looking for the best deal on Dutch Glow and you will be taken to the official website.
Here are the features of Dutch Glow:- Reveals the wood's natural beauty- Removes years of wax buildup- Works on any wood surface including painted surfaces.- Cleans, polishes and nourishes- Helps repel dust- One hundred year old woodworkers formula
My personal experience with Dutch Glow
Ordering online was easy, and I would actually recommend ordering online as opposed to calling them. You can call them if you prefer to go that route, but from what I've heard from others, there will be a long hold time. I just ordered online because I didn't want to deal with it.
My order arrived in a timely manner and was well packaged. It looked like it got a rough handle in transit (not Dutch Glows fault!), but everything arrived intact and not even dented.
The first thing I noticed when I set out to use my Dutch glow for the first time is that the scent was fairly pleasant. For me, it was not overly fake or chemical and I like that. I am very sensitive to different scents and so I am careful about what I use, it was pleasant to have a decent scent for my wood milk.
Dutch Glow was also very easy to use. I just followed the directions on the bottle and I used the polishing cloth that came along with it to make sure I got the full advantage of the system as it should be used.
What a difference!
While you do have to put a little bit of effort in, I found this was by far the easiest to use product I have used on my wood surfaces, and it took all of the dull and worrisome grime off my wood furniture. I don't think any of my furniture looked this good when I first got it and I am very pleased with the results.
We have one coffee table that I always try to hide or put a large book on when company comes over because it has a nasty ring mark on it that stands out starkly. Or I should more accurately say we did have one; I used the Dutch Glow on it and with some proper buffing, no more ring. The coffee table looks brand new!
I have decided I will never be without Dutch Glow in my cleaning line up again. I am actually taking a bit of joy in cleaning my wood surfaces and furniture because I am seeing the results. I can see the shine and health of my wood. I truly appreciate the different grains and feelings now. I would recommend this to anyone like me who wants an easier way to keep your wood furniture clean and looking great.
Best Place to Buy Dutch Glow?
The best deal I have seen is right from the official website. Not only do you get the lowest price by buying direct from the manufacturer, but they also offer some good bonuses too like a buy one get one free offer. Like I mentioned earlier, I'd recommend ordering online as opposed to calling, otherwise you may be put on hold for a while.
Click Here to purchase Dutch Glow and take advantage of the bonus offer currently running!
Wrap UpIt's not very often that I come across a product advertised on TV that actually works as it should. Dutch Glow Amish Wood Milk is the exception though. I have been very pleased with the effectiveness of Dutch Glow in cleaning all of my wood surfaces. It really does bring out the wood's natural shine and beauty.It's inexpensive and comes with a money back guarantee, so you have literally nothing to lose by trying it out. Give it a shot - you won't be disappointed.

Genre as Context in the Alliterative Morte Arthure
Whetter, K. S., Arthuriana
Genre remains an important context for teaching and understanding literature. The genre of the Alliterative Morte is epic-heroic. This genre is dominated by a focus on heroes and their concern with honor, glory and martial achievement. Such values and heroes have potentially tragic consequences, but such tragedy and the genre which surrounds it are celebrating, not condemning, Arthurian heroism and martial deeds. (KSW)
(ProQuest: ... denotes non-US-ASCII text omitted.)
All literary criticism is dependent upon contexts: that of the critic if nothing else, but also that of the original author and text. To take a notable example from Greek Drama, the comic poet Aristophanes probably would not have written so many plays devoted to pan-Hellenic peace had he not been writing during the destruction and divisiveness of the Peloponnesian War. Or, to take a medieval Arthurian example, the tragic emphases and simultaneously positive and negative portrayal of warfare in Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte Darthur no doubt owe something to the turmoil of the equally divisive Hundred Years War and Wars of the Roses, against which bloody backdrops Malory assembled and created his Arthuriad.1 Likewise, suggests Mary Hamel, the Alliterative Morte Arthure owes its own tragic effect to the poet's response to Henry IV's usurpation of Richard II's throne.2 The socio-political contexts of the Morte Arthure are explored more fully throughout this special issue of Arthuriana, with Marco Nievergelt paying special attention to the Ricardian and late-medieval crusading contexts of the poem and Christine Chism situating the poem amidst the cultural, chivalric and courtly coalitions of the late fourteenth century.3 But equally important as a text's military or political contexts are its literary and generic contexts, for all literary criticism, if not all literary creation, is also dependent, consciously or not, on genre. Genre is in fact one of the key contexts for author, text, audience and scholar alike. Genre study has long been unfashionable: Croce famously denigrated it at the beginning of the twentieth century, and modern literary theory ignored it or further castigated it.4 Hence Fredric Jameson's comment of a generation ago still has validity today:
The reaction against genre theory in recent times is a strategic feature of what must be called the ideology of modernism. And it is certain that of all literary works, so-called modernistic ones are the least classifiable according to traditional 'kinds': witness the rise of a new and hybrid form in the novel, and in our own day, the emphasis on the incomparable uniqueness of the individual writer. 5
In part, this reaction against genre stems from the misguided belief that genre study and the classification of a text's genre restrict meaning and impose rigid closure or boundaries. In reality, genre is much more than a purely classificatory system: its classifications are useful and practical, not least for pedagogical reasons; but genre offers much more than this. As Northrop Frye and Alastair Fowler each observe in different but equally perspicacious ways, an understanding of genre enhances rather than obscures the reader's and critic's understanding of literature.6 And in part this increased literary elucidation occurs as a result of understanding the literary contexts of a particular kind or genre-both how the genre itself operates and what expectations it raises, as well as how and where it relates to other literary genres.7 Such contextualization reveals that most genres contain aspects of one or more other genres mixed in with the dominant kind, but that even granted the ubiquity of such generic mixture one kind generally dominates and stamps any individual text (or film or song, etc.). Where the generic mixture is too great to allow one genre to dominate the result is a generic hybrid, but even with mixture or hybridity an understanding of genre is still crucial for appreciation and interpretation. …

Go-to Reference for Weavers
Best Uses
Comments about Handweaver's Pattern Directory:
This is an essential reference for any weaver interested in producing woven patterned fabrics. It also contains info on fibers, equipment and directions on following the weaving drafts. The photo examples of each pattern are excellent -- there are close-ups and imaages of the reverse side of the pattern as well. My only complaint: I am a very new weaver, and I needed more explanation as to how the drafts are read. The book assumes that the reader/weaver has more knowledge than I did (of which I had next to none.) Anyway, this is an indispensable book!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Handweaver's Pattern Directory:
If you want to weave something unique, or a one of a kind design this book can help you do that. I love the fact that the pictures are in color and that they show several different patterns using the same tie- up with different treadling.

I'm looking at the RPM packaging steps that Paul has done. AIUI, he uses a small python script to pick the changelog information out of the document's XML. Cool idea. My question is this: should we build the RPM changelog from the XML content or from the CVS check-in log? Using the XML info is way cool, but we can get more file-specific information from the CVS log. I think developers, er, RPM users, would like the additional details. Opinions? Cheers

The Challenge of the "Selfie"
Just curious if there has ever been a "selfie" challenge on DPreview? I think it would be an interesting "category". There are so many elements that can go into the hot self portrait now-a-days.
I'm a "new-er" member so I'm not sure if this has been done in the past? Is there a way you can look through an archive possibly?

I have followed all the things of windows help, but no result.
Still no update, and every time the same screen.
Please help, so i can download my updates.
Vista is already activaded!
I'm having the same problem as Ed. I've followed all the instructions on the Microsoft site, but I still can't get any updates.
Two quick questions:
- In addition to the steps listed on the Windows Help and How-To website
(http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/), did you also try the alternate steps
for the ISA server settings in this KB?
- I'm not sure if the ISA server info is applicable to your situations, but
do either of these scenarios apply?
"If you receive Windows Update error 8024402C while checking for updates,
you might need to do one of the following:
.. If the computer is connected to a network at work, contact a network
administrator. You probably receive updates using Windows Server Update
Services (WSUS), a service that enables network administrators to deploy and
manage updates for all computers on a network. For more information about
WSUS, go to the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) website
.. If your computer is usually connected to a network at work (for example,
if you use a mobile PC but you are currently using it at home or at another
location), you probably receive updates using WSUS and can not receive
updates by connecting directly to the Internet or to another network, such
as a home network. To solve the problem, connect to the network at work and
try checking for updates again, or contact a network administrator."
Finally, it works!!
I have in a last effort i deinstalled windows vista and made a new clean
I did't update xp but i choose in the selection screen for a clean
installation and this worked for me, at last!!
I was afraid you'd say that. I have a similar problem.
but isn't reinstalling Vista like burning down the house for spring cleaning?
Vista windows update not working.
"Windows could not search for new update"
WindowsUpdate_C0150004 WindowsUpdate_dt000
I have the same problem and same setup as Ed M. I'm not to keen on
reinstalling Vista and have tried all the tips from Microsoft
Have the same problem...
I've updated correct till SP1 installed :(
I had the same problem ''Code 8024402C'' until I figured out to shut the
windows firewall completely. Now I am downloading updates. Hope they will be
installed without any problem. For you guys have the same error code, try to
turn off the windows firewall before scanning new updates. Just do not forget
to turn on it again...
Logically windows firewall should allow windows update service by default. I
tried to make an exception of windows update on windows firewall but could
not find its .exe or whatever it is necessary to make an exception.
I am using OS vista home premium ,any one can help me to windows update since i am getting error
WindowsUpdate_8024402C" "WindowsUpdate_dt000
I could not able to update
You may receive a "0x8024402C" error message when you scan for updates on
the Windows
Windows Update error 8024402C
this helped me
i had to open internet options in Internet Explorer (i think you can also do
this from control panel) and make sure that my LAN settings had only
"automatically detect settings" checked (not the other two below that).
then it worked. silly really.

Poll observers say the longest lines came when polls opened at 7 a.m. The crush of voters who arrived early created waits of up to an hour at some sites in Madison and Milwaukee.
Election workers are bracing for another rush once workers start leaving their jobs in the late afternoon. But mostly, they say the process is running smoothly except for routine technical glitches and registration problems.
Turnout appears high in many parts of the state. A poll worker at a downtown Madison voting site says more than 1,000 people voted there by 10:30 a.m.
