CEA blood testCarcinoembryonic antigen blood test
The CEA test measures the level of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the blood. CEA is a protein normally found in the tissue of a developing baby in the womb. The blood level of this protein disappears or becomes very low after birth. In adults, an abnormal level of CEA may be a sign of cancer.
A blood sample is needed.
Smoking may increase CEA level. If you smoke, your doctor may tell you to avoid doing so for a short time before the test.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or a slight bruise. These soon go away.
This test is done to monitor the response to treatment and then to check for the return of colon and other cancers such as medullary thyroid cancer and cancers of the rectum, lung, breast, liver, pancreas, stomach, and ovaries.
It is not used as a screening test for cancer.
The normal range is 0 to 2.5 micrograms per liter (mcg/L). In smokers, the normal range is 0 to 5 mcg/L.
In smokers, slightly higher values may be considered normal.
A high CEA level in a person recently treated for certain cancers may mean the cancer has returned.A higher than normal level may be due to the following cancers:
- Breast cancer
- Cancers of the reproductive and urinary tracts
- Colon cancer
- Lung cancer
- Pancreatic cancer
- Thyroid cancer
Higher than normal CEA level alone cannot diagnose a new cancer. Further testing is needed.
An increased CEA level may also be due to:
- Liver and gallbladder problems, such as scarring of the liver (cirrhosis), or gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis)
- Heavy smoking
- Inflammatory bowel diseases (such as ulcerative colitisor diverticulitis)
- Lung infection
- Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)
- Stomach ulcer
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:
- Excessive bleeding (rare)
- Fainting or feeling lightheaded
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)

These shoes have shock-absorbing springs in the soles that relieve the stress and fatigue of running, walking, or standing better than any shoe available. Tests performed at Michigan State University proved that the patented springs returned up to 96% of the energy from each step that would otherwise be lost to the ground. The downward force deflected and dispersed during each impact is recycled to the wearer as propulsive energy, further reducing the strain on the feet, even for casual walkers or those who stand on their feet most of the workday. Unlike the compressed foams and gels used for cushioning on other athletic shoes, these springs will never break down or degrade. The shoes have a full-grain leather upper, with a one-piece outsole of abrasion-resistant carbon rubber. Each shoe contains one spring in the heel and one in the forefoot. Men's Hook-and-Loop Straps. Whole/half sizes 8-12; 13 and 14. If in-between sizes, order the next larger size. Medium width. White or Black. (13 oz.)
To ensure a proper fit in our footwear, we encourage you to measure your foot to determine your shoe size and refer to the shoe sizing chart below.

Previously bought a pair in black. Mistakenly ordered a half size larger this time. Should not have. Original size was fine, just required a bit of break-in time.Spring assist clearly makes walking more comfortable and less tiring.

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania field hockey team christened the new Ellen Vagelos Field in style over the weekend, with wins over Cornell and Pacific. On Wednesday, the homestand continues as the Quakers host city rival La Salle at 4 p.m.
Directions to Ellen Vagelos Field!

Click here for live stats!
The Series with La Salle
Despite their relative proximity in distance, this will be just the sseventh meeting between the Quakers and the Explorers in field hockey. Penn leads the series, 5-1, with the most recent win coming two years ago, 1-0, in double overtime at Franklin Field. These teams also met three straight years, from 2001-03; before that, the last meeting came way back in 1978 (La Salle's only win, a 3-2 decision played at La Salle).
About La Salle
The Explorers (2-6) gained a win their last time out, a 2-1 victory over Liberty on Sunday. Prior to that, they fell to Pacific 2-1 on Friday. La Salle's other win came at UMass-Lowell, 3-0, on September 8. Olivia Shoemaker is La Salle's leader in every offensive category with five goals and three assists for 13 points. Mariel Papa and Maddy Tettelbach have four goals each, while Abby Lawrence has five points (2g, 1a). At the other end, Lisa Shaffer has played every minute in goal; she has a 3.31 goals-against average and a .710 save percentage.
About Penn
*At 4-1, Penn will match its best start since 1997 if it wins against La Salle.
*Last year the Quakers tied a program record for goals in a season, with 42. They are well on their way toward giving that mark a run this year, with 22 goals in their first five games. Take out a one-goal performance at Bucknell, and Penn is averaging 6.0 goals per game.
*Freshman Jasmine Cole already has two hat tricks in her collegiate career; it took her four games to do it. The first one came at Saint Joseph's, and the second one came last Saturday in her Ivy League debut against Cornell.
*Junior Emily Corcoran has also been on fire, with goals in all but one game so far this season. She had the opening goal and then two assists in the Cornell win, then scored Penn's first two goals against Pacific on Sunday. Overall, she is second on the team with 13 points.
*Another freshman, Elise Tilton, scored twice in a 23-second span Sunday vs. Pacific; she is tied with Corcoran for second on the team in goals (5), and like Corcoran she has scored in all but one game this season.
*Senior Julie Tahan is fourth on the team with seven points (2g, 3a), while sophomore Elizabeth Hitti is right behind her with six points (2g, 2a).
*It was good to see junior Alex Iqbal get on the score sheet Sunday against Pacific; she assisted on a goal for her first point of 2013. Iqbal was an All-Ivy performer as a freshman, but missed all of last year due to an injury.
*Junior defender MaryRose Croddick also gained her first point of 2013, with an assist against Cornell, while senior Sunny Stirewalt had her second point of the season, an assist, against Pacific.
*Junior Carly Sokach has played every minute in goal this season; she was magnificent against Bucknell (11 saves, 2 goals) and Cornell (12 saves, 3 goals). She then collected her first shutout of 2013 Sunday against Pacific.
*Overall, Sokach has a .766 save percentage this season; however, in the last three games that number shoots up to .833. Her goals-against average for the 2013 campaign is 2.20
*Tahan and Croddick were second-team All-Ivy players a year ago; both are back this season. Hitti, meanwhile, received honorable mention despite being a freshman. The team also welcomes back Iqbal, who was an All-Ivy honoree in 2011 as a freshman but missed all of last year due to injury.
*Tahan and Iqbal are this year's captains. In addition to Tahan, the other seniors are Stirewalt, Amelia Cohen and Katie Harrington.
Up Next...
Penn is at Harvard Saturday at noon, looking to stay unbeaten in Ivy League play.

Its day of triumph at an end, it withdrew to the seclusion of its hangar, and the Fokker biplane replaced it in the air.
It was only a short while before the Fokker monoplane was "behind the times."
They chose a three-motored Fokker monoplane, with 200 horsepower Wright air-cooled motors.
The Fokker biplane D.7 first appeared in numbers at this time.
He knew the Fokker had its gun fixed forward, rigidly fixed, so that it could only fire ahead through the propeller.
I noticed that a German Fokker was attacking three Caudron machines.
They must depend on eyesight alone to tell them when they were nearing the oncoming Fokker craft.
The Fokker was driven over the town of Verdun in the course of the fight.
You can figure how long that little light-weight, with its patchy wings and misfiring engine, would last against a Fokker.
Swooping down from behind, one of them, a Fokker, riddled Chapman's plane.
German monoplane, 1913, from name of A.H.G. Fokker (1890-1939), Dutch engineer and inventor.

If they could add the likes of James Saville, James Brum, Paddy Holohan it'd make for a great night out.

Ignore the Haters… ACT OF VALOR is a great piece of film making.
posted at 12:54 pm on February 24, 2012 by Kevin McCullough
A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to walk the red carpet with my business partner Stephen Baldwin on the U.S.S. Intrepid to view ACT OF VALOR with about 120 VIPS from NYC. Notable progressives were in attendance–Montel Williams, Ellis Henican, and others. In short, the evening was special, not just because the film is a breathtaking action movie, the likes of which comes along once in a generation, but because the story has more heart than any movie made about our military in the last twenty years.
The filmmaker's Q & A following the screening was also very telling. Their primary motivation for making this apolitical movie about the life of Navy Seals was primarily to pay honor and tribute to the sacrifice these extraordinary individuals make in order for all the rest of us to walk around free.
The liberals in attendance gave the film the same standing ovation I did, because they were drawn into an intense story line that did not choose partisan sides.
That's not to say that liberals who haven't seen the film aren't making a partisan issue of it.
A more heinous, asinine, and dishonest expression of this is this piece from Gawker. The author Hamilton Nolan, speaking completely out of ignorance on the matter, seems to imply that the filmmakers attempted to make this piece of "propaganda" to cash in on the press of the Osama bin Ladin take down. If he had actually spoken to the filmmakers–as I did–he would've learned that this cinematic masterpiece was in the works four years prior to the OBL raid.
Nolan's ignorant trash-talking about Relativity Media also demonstrates the lack of knowledge (does anyone who blogs at Gawker actually ever have to know anything) because Relativity came in on the marketing and distribution to help push the film to a somewhat normal level of theaters for opening weekend. Their cash infusion also allowed this tiny independent passion project to get some needed television ad space.
It is difficult to put into words how important this film is. It is even harder to put into words how GOOD this film is.
As the CEO of a media company with several film projects in the works, let me just tell you–art this good usually doesn't get the recognition it deserves if it's patriotic. But there is absolutely no reason why this film shouldn't be up for multiple recognitions from the academy, if all they were measuring was the quality of the craft.
The fact that it won't will only be enhanced if we turn it into the biggest movie of the weekend!

make sure your path is correct otherwise sslstrip may not initiate properly which would cause you to miss any passwords being entered.. please let me know the output of the following command when executed at a bt5 terminal prompt:
if it does not include "/usr/local/bin" then execute the following command at the bt5 prompt:Code:echo $PATH
then execute both sslstrip and ettercap by name at the terminal to verify independently that they are both working.. they should be called from the command line without a full path (ie just 'sslstrip' and 'ettercap -T').. if they both work then re-run yamas and see if it works for you..Code:export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
NOTE:the path is not persistent for some reason so i make an alias for the export command in the ~/.bash_aliases file. You may do this via the following commands from a bt5 prompt:
and add the following line: (the file may be blank if you do not use aliases)Code:nano ~/.bash_aliases
hit ctrl-x to save the file to the same location and then reboot the phone for good measure..Code:alias p='export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH'
then every time you load the bt5 terminal on your phone via the 'bt' startup script you can just type 'p' and press enter to set your path before you get started.. it's quick and hackish but it works.. I messed around with ways to do this automatically but got sidetracked and haven't looked back into it in a bit.. hope this helps you!
If this does not solve your problem then let me know and we'll go from there!

Before i get jumped on, i'm posting here as a last resort. I've checked as many guides as i could, and they all start with "load back track from disk, or put it onto a USB" I'm struggling to get that far. I've downloaded the correct files as a mod on the forums told me to and i've done the following.
Burn to dvd, using several different programs, and the slowest speed possible.
neither computer i've used has recognised any as a bootable disk.
Partitioned my HDD using UNetbootin.
UNetbootin has sucessfully partitioned my drive, however when running i get this error message.
"Find -set-root/unetbootin/ubnkern
Error 15 - File not found
Press any key"
Tried to boot the dvd's on 2 different computers.
My next step would be to put backtrack on a HDD entirely, which i'm ok with, due to having an old laptop kicking around, however i dont have any installer exe files or anything that leads me to think i can install it to start with. I'm sure its something small i'm doing wrong, but after several days of frustration, its getting to me.
The files i have when i unzip the download(done with winrar and winzip on different occasions)
If i am going to install backtrack to a HDD entirely, how do i go about doing this?
I apologise if the answer is staring me in the face, or is blatantly obvious, but i'm really struggling

Reviews of this property
Appartamento con posizione ottima: vicinissima alla via principale Avenue Jean Medecin e alla fermata del tram. Zona sicura e tranquilla, non abbiamo mai avuto problemi neppure tornando a casa tardi la sera.
Pulizia e organizzazione ottimi; all'arrivo viene fornita una cartina della città e una piccola guida con le attrazioni principali di Nizza.
L'appartamento ha tutto, dalla lavatrice al microonde, ma è organizzato in modo non propriamente funzionale, ad esempio ci sono due librerie e due tavoli ma manca un armadio per i vestiti.
Esperienza complessivamente molto positiva, si vede che l'attività è gestita con grande attenzione.
L'unica nota negativa che possiamo riportare è che quando abbiamo avuto un grande problema e abbiamo chiesto una mano dato che non parliamo il francese e non sapevamo a chi rivolgerci per risolverlo ci siamo sentiti poco aiutati, sappiamo benissimo che non era nelle loro competenze, ma un aiuto da chi parla entrambe le lingue ed è della città ci avrebbe fatto comodo in un momento complicato!
Salvatore was very helpful to us during our stay and the apartment was very well planned. It's really close to gare SNCF, the shopping street jean-medecin and just a 10 min walk to the beach.
Salvatore an his cousin Stefano are very friendli. We liked them and appreciated their helpfulness really!
I have to say, the appartment was not that clean, what did not was a big problem for us. But therefore it was equipped nicely and well done up!
We liked the location because it was right at the main street!
Thank you and best regards :)
The apartment was clean and in a great location. It was close to the airport, and just a short walk to the train station, the tram, and excellent shopping and dining. We arrived late to the airport (around 2130) so transportation to the apartment was a challenge. Salvatore suggested 2 busses, both of which didn't run after 2100. He also said that if we took a cab, we should contact his friend. Unfortunately, the friend didn't respond to our call. When we arrived at the apartment, the gentleman who greeted us with the key, Stefan, was very pleasant and helpful. Water pressure was great in the shower and we never ran out of hot water. Unfortunately, there were two aspects of the apartment stay that were not great. One was that we had a problem with the clothes washer. The problem was of our making. It was necessary for me to contact Salvatore a few times before the problem was addressed. The other problem which was very concerning is that the apartment had roaches. We would also note that the loft bedroom had a very low ceiling that we could not stand upright in. Not a huge problem but noteworthy. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but wouldn't stay in this apartment again because of the roaches.
Malgré d'excellents rapports avec Salvatore, je suis très déçu de ma dernière expérience. Le studio loué était infesté de cafards vivants et de cadavres.
Je sais qu'il est très difficile de se débarrasser de ses insectes une fois qu'ils sont en place mais en retrouver dans son lit, courant au plafond et dans la salle de bain, dans les placards est une expérience très désagréable surtout lorsque l'on a des visiteurs.
Great stay in Nice! Apartment very well furnished, clean and especially good (shops, tourist attractions and restaurants nearby).
Will definitely stay again !!!
Super séjour à Nice ! Appartement très bien meublé, propre et surtout bien situé (boutiques, lieux touristiques et restaurants à proximité).
J'y retournerai sans hésiter !!!
Reviews for this host's other properties
We very much enjoyed our stay at this apartment. Very close to Jean De Medicin, in the centre of Nice. A perfect apartment/living area for 2 people to stay in. It all went smoothly with keys and check-in, we could handle this all by ourselves in accordance with e-mail from the host Salvatore. We are going back again on August 2rd and will stay in this apartment once again. We highlyrecommend this for everyone!!

The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Wir haben den Aufenthalt in Nizza sehr genossen.
Insgesamt haben wir drei Nächte in dem Apartment übernachtet.
Nach Ankunft erfolgte problemlos die Schlüsselübergabe.
Das Appartement war sauber und es war alles da, was man benötigt. Die Küche ist voll ausgestattet und es gibt Handtücher (die sogar in Plastik verpackt sind) und Toilettenpapier war auch vorhanden.
In der Umgebung befinden sich fußläufig ein Supermarkt, ein Bäcker, ein Restaurant und eine Apotheke.
Das Wichtigste, die Promenade des Anglais, liegt ebenfalls nicht mal 5 Minuten von dem Apartment entfernt.
Dort findet man auch gleich eine Bushaltestelle.
Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.
Dankeschön Salvatore.
very nice apartment in the center of Nice.

Mines joins National Geothermal Academy
GOLDEN, Colo., Sept. 1, 2010 – Colorado School of Mines has been invited to join the National Geothermal Academy and will participate in its summer program to be held June-August 2011 at the University of Nevada, Reno.
Earlier this year, the U.S. Department of Energy awarded the University of Nevada, Reno a $1.2 million grant to develop and operate the National Geothermal Institute, a consortium of top geothermal research institutions including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cornell University, Stanford University, the Oregon Institute of Technology and the University of Utah.
Mining Engineering Professor Masami Nakagawa will be part of a team designing an eight-week intensive accredited course for the summer program covering all aspects of geothermal power utilization, business development, policy/permitting/environmental regulations, resource assessment and exploration, reservoir engineering and management, power plant design and construction and direct use applications.
The modules will be offered for undergraduate credit or leading to a post-baccalaureate graduate certificate in geothermal energy. For industry professionals who do not need or have time for the intensive course, individual week modules will be offered as professional development.

At the end of the camp, the coaches got together to name their top performers and here is the list:
Top Overall Performer: Cole Cook | 2014 TE | Carrollton (Ga.)
Cook is known as a strong blocker, but he has strong hands too. He made some great catches on Sunday, he got off the line well, and he showed he is much more of a complete tight end than some may think. No offers are on the table now for this 6-foot-5, 234 pound junior, but there will be.
Top Underclassman: D'Andre Gardenhire-Washington | 2016 DE | Camden County (Ga.)
Another Camden County star shined at an MVP Camp. Kalvarez Bessent impressed many last year at this camp and he is now a top corner in the 2014 class. Gardenhire-Washington will likely be another top prospect coming out of Camden County. He is long (6-4/192), quick off the ball, and he was unblockable in the 1on1s Sunday.
Top Quarterback: Tyler Harris | 2014 QB | Pierce Coutny (Ga.)
Harris had a big weekend. He took home a big trophy on Sunday after throwing tight spirals and hitting many receivers in stride, but he also picked up an offer from Alabama on Saturday. He has the size, arm, and poise to be a top quarterback prospect in this cycle.
Top Running Back: Traveon Samuel | 2015 RB | Central (Ala.)
Samuel showcased his speed and hands again at his third MVP Camp in the last two years. He is one of the quickest athletes on the field at all times and it is almost impossible for him to be covered. He makes quick cuts and he explodes out of his breaks.
Top Wide Receiver/Tight End: Jeremy Caldwell-Fabregas | 2014 WR | Liberty County (Ga.)
Caldwell-Fabregas went against the top defensive backs in the 1on1s and that is what sealed the deal for him getting this award. He is a 6-foot-2, 190-pound receiver with good speed, body control, and he displayed strong hands. He plays linebacker in high school, so he is very physical.
Top Offensive Lineman: Montel McBride | 2014 OG | Plant City (Fla.)
McBride dominated up front on Sunday. He showed great strength and solid footwork in the offensive line drills, but it was during the 1on1s when he really put on a show. He was stoning defensive linemen on a regular basis. He could play offensive or defensive line on the next level, but his highest ceiling without question is at offensive guard. He checked in at over 6-feet 4-inches tall and at 331 pounds.
Top Defensive Lineman: Darrius Sapp | 2014 DT | Valdosta (Ga.)
Sapp is a 6-foot-2, 332 pound interior defensive lineman who could play defensive tackle or nose guard on the next level. He was nimble on his feet Sunday and he showed the ability to overpower his opponent as well.
Top Linebacker: Tre Jackson | 2014 LB | Lowndes (Ga.)
When you see Jackson on the field, you immediately think inside linebacker that knows how to hit. He is a 5-foot-11, 232 pound jacked up linebacker that surprised many in coverage on Sunday. He moves downhill very well, but he turned and ran with some good running backs in this camp too.
Top Defensive Back: Malkom Parrish | 2014 CB | Brooks County (Ga.)
It was a tight battle at this position and Parrish won out in the end. He is a very tough and physical corner who loves to press at the line of scrimmage. He showed very good quickness and the ability to change direction and to run with the receivers. Expect his recruitment to pick up in the coming months.

Overcoming the Fear and Trying Again for a Homebirth
Hi there
My daughter was born via emergency c-section after 4 days of pre-labour, a hospital transfer, and another day of labour, followed by an emergency c-section. When I think about having another baby (not a given but an option) I often ponder whether I could face the fear and try for another homebirth. How do you overcome the fear that it will all go wrong again and end in tragedy? Have you been there? Did you find that being pregnant gave you the strength to make the choice?

Hi Mumof2IVFmiracles,
I'm sorry to hear about your difficult birth.
There are lots of wonderful things you can do during your pregnancy which can increase your odds of having an easier, natural birth AND give you so much more confidence that your next birth will be the birth you want.
Avoiding sweets (processed foods and foods with sugar), choosing organic foods, and eating a fertility friendly and pregnancy friendly diet is a good first step. Be sure you get enough essential fatty acids like those found in flax oil or cod liver oil.
Using aromatherapy and hypnosis during pregnancy and labour can enhance emotional and physical well being, both of which would be beneficial to you during your next pregnancy.
There's an "Embracing Safety Aroma Pack" that you can purchase which gives you everything you'll need. I use aromatherapy when I just want to be calmed, or when I'm sick (using appropriate essential oils for what I need at the time). I have a diffuser that I use to diffuse the aroma into the room, but oils can be used in many different ways - many people use little burners to diffuse the oil or blend them with a base oil like almond oil, and rub them on the body (wonderful for massage).
I did a search for aromatherapy on this site and came up with many excellent resources to help you learn more about how this can help during pregnancy and birth.
I'm going to make another post (or two) discussing some other things that can be really helpful in balancing the body during pregnancy so that birth is easier.
I'm also curious as to why you needed IVF to conceive. Was it male factor, female factor, or both? Any details you can share related to this would possibly give me some insight as to why labour didn't progress normally for you. I had my last baby just one month shy of my 41st birthday, and I have a dear friend who had her last baby at 44. Both were homebirths and both progressed normally, so I know it's not simply age related. Would love to help you figure out the cause so we can address that strongly next time.
Kind regards,

Another thing that can greatly help to ensure a faster, natural birth is having regular chiropractic treatments throughout your pregnancy. Especially starting from week 36 on. These adjustments can help your body to be in alignment, structurally, and can also help baby to be positioned as best as possible when going into labour.
The better you are aligned, and the better baby is positioned, the faster and easier labour will be.
I'm including 2 videos here, both with pregnant women in their last trimester, who are having chiropractic adjustments. You'll notice that on the first one, it's a manual adjustment.
On the second one, it's more of a non-force adjustment. There are many types of skeletal adjustments. You could even have a Cranio-Sacral Therapist do an adjustment.
My midwife suggested a chiropractor with my last two babies. They were the easiest of all 5 of my births. I wish I had gone throughout those pregnancies, but I only went from week 38 on - sometimes having 3 adjustments in a week because we needed to get baby into a better position before birth.
Acupuncture can also be used throughout pregnancy and even into labour, to keep things balanced. The more balanced your hormones are, and the more balanced your entire body is, the better birth experience you should have.
You can find an Acupuncturist here.
What I want to leave you with is this. There are many different things you can do during your next pregnancy to support your body and your baby so that you have the absolute best possible chance of having the homebirth that your heart desires.
When you're pro-active in your care during your pregnancy, you will feel empowered, and that empowerment will reduce any anxiety you may have revolving another birth. Do your research and interview some chiropractors, acupuncturisst, massage therapists, nutritionists, and anyone else you think will offer a benefit during your next pregnancy. Once you feel confident then you'll be able to make the move to have another child and you'll feel really good about that decision.
Looking forward to hearing from you again.
Warm regards,

You've had some great info from Kate but I just wanted to add my comments.
I also experienced a traumatic birth with my son and I suffered from post traumatic stress after this. I used to replay the birth again and again in my mind and I also suffered from panic attacks. This sadly made it difficult for me to bond with my beautiful baby boy at first. Gradually, I got better. I talked through the birth in great detail with a close friend who helped me to come to terms with what had happened. I sought help from traumatic birth support groups. I also researched and read lots of information on the different birth choices available.
I am now 15 weeks pregnant and have naturally been thinking about the next birth. I must say, as you mention, that being pregnant seems to have empowered me to think through my birthing options with clarity and confidence. I am also going to book onto a Hypnobirthing course as the information I have found on this is that hypnobirthing can help women to have a calmer, quicker and natural birth. As well as this I am researching having the help and support of a doula.
Obviously I have not experienced the second birth yet so I cannot say for sure. But I can say that I feel different about the birth now - no longer fearful but empowered.
I hope this helps in some way,

Thanks for your thoughts Kate and LJ.
In preparing for pregnancy I was very lucky to have the care of a highly skilled chiropractor, a homeopath, ozzie midwife as my IM and also a doula, as well as a skilled IVF team to combat the endometriosis that made conception difficult, and the elevated cardio-lipin levels which made carrying to term less likely. It was nothing short of an amazing feat of teamwork which saw me pregnant and successfully on the way to birth after many many many loses.
Having witnessed the beautiful birth of my first daughter at home (via another woman) I was bent on a home birth. I attended Hypnobirthing (again) and with the unfailing support of my homebirth team, planned a glorious birth. But it was not to be.
I think if you have walked the common road and had a traumatic birth, it is easier to take courage next time because you see what you could have done and you seize that as your power. But that is not me.
I am the woman who was exceptionally well informed, took advantage of every oppotunity to 'ensure' that birth would progress smoothly, and in the end ended up at the train wreck. It's been a bitter pill to swallow.
I would be really interested to hear the thoughts and feelings of woman like me, who did it all but had a birth that was a long way from what they hoped.

I am sorry to hear about your traumatic birth. You know I didn't really plan anything for my births but see that birthing is a time of surrender and ended up having eight homebirths. I think you have to give birth, where you feel safe. It is very difficult to dismiss your previous experiences and it takes faith in something greater than yourself, to overcome fear.

Hi myheartsisters,
You mentioend that you had eight homebirths. How many children do you have and what are their ages?
I have five, ages 80, 18, 14, 11 and the "baby" is 8. I'm 49 and perimenopausal now so highly doubt there will be anymore blessings for us.

Hi Kate, I am 41 and my oldest is 21 and a half, 20, 18, 16,15, 13,11, 8,6,3 and I had heart failure in my last pregnancy. So the last baby would have been about one. I think the last will always be the baby. Currently our last is so spoilt but she's gorgeous. I don't think you can give a child too much love.

Welcome to Screen and Media Studies
We live and work in the 21st century, and all our students will spend their working lives there. That is why the Screen and Media Studies curriculum is oriented towards the future. Everything we do is guided by the question: how relevant is this to the future of the media?
We believe that the future will be global, multicultural, multi-skilled, digital, creative and smart. That is why our curriculum combines thinking and making. You cannot understand the media without making them; you cannot make media without understanding how they work. The new professional, the new citizen, the new critic and the new maker all need to understand the whole process of media. So we will study media technologies, political economy, styles and techniques, ideologies and meanings, audiences and reception.
We know that the future will demand more mobility and flexibility. Therefore we will not only supply students with the skills and understanding necessary to think about and through the media. We want all our students to have the full range of skills for research and communication, because these will be the key skills of the coming decades, whatever careers they move into.
Audience Research Unit
This unit provides a forum for multi-disciplinary qualitative research activities focused on the role and significance of viewers / readers / users within media practices
'Mediarena' is both a facility and an idea. It will develop new forms of practice-based research and inquiry-based practices using media technologies, with a particular emphasis on graduate and postgraduate work..

For the second consecutive year, the Transplant Services in Augusta, Georgia, has been recognized by HealthGrades with the Kidney Transplant Excellence Award.
In fact, Augusta University is one of only ten kidney transplant programs to receive this quality distinction, and one of 20 nationwide to receive a HealthGrades Transplant Excellence Award.
HealthGrades annual evaluation of the nation's top-performing hospitals in organ transplantation includes clinical quality data, based on patient outcomes, for each of the 210 adult acute care hospitals that perform transplants. This information is available, free to the public, at HealthGrades.com and is intended to help patients in need of kidney, lung, heart or liver transplants.
HealthGrades Transplant Excellence Award is based on data calculated by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) for all adult acute care hospitals in the U.S. with transplant programs.
Hospitals with transplant programs received HealthGrades Transplant Excellence Awards if they had a statistically significantly higher three-year survival rate. Award recipients were also required to have waitlist mortality that was either not significantly different than expected or was significantly lower than expected based on SRTR calculations. Of the 210 hospitals evaluated, 20 hospitals received this award.
HealthGrades, Inc. is the leading independent healthcare ratings organization, providing quality ratings, profiles and cost information on the nation's hospitals, physicians, nursing homes and prescription drugs. Millions of patients and many of the nation's largest hospitals, health plans and employers rely on HealthGrades' quality ratings, advisory services and decision-support resources. The HealthGrades Network of websites, including HealthGrades.com and WrongDiagnosis.com, is a top-ten health property according to comScore and is the Internet's leading destination for patients choosing providers.

Lisa J. Sullivan, '16, is the United States winner of the Ireland Poetry Project Prize. Her winning entry, "To the Bog of Allen," is an ekphrastic poem, which means it was written in response to another work of art. Ms. Sullivan's poem is in response to a short video by Nigel Rolfe called, "Into the Mire." The poem is printed below; to see the video, visit The Poetry Project's U.S. winner.
"I was elated," Ms. Sullivan said of learning her poem had been chosen. "I have a special affinity for ekphrastic poetry, so this win really bolstered my confidence in that category."
The Plymouth resident is an English major with a writing concentration. Her ultimate goal is to earn an MFA in poetry. She cites an undergraduate research project through the Adrian Tinsley Program as a turning point.
"I am thankful to the BSU faculty members who have been so supportive of my writing, especially during my ATP Creative Grant project last summer," she said. "After that experience, I felt emboldened enough to start entering poetry contests."
The victory comes only months after Ms. Sullivan published her first chapbook of 11 poems, The Childless Mother, written with the support of a 2013 ATP summer grant. The poems explore the complex emotions of childless (or "childfree") people in order to help dispel lingering social stigmas about those who do not have children, whether by choice, family circumstances, miscarriage, or infertility.
Ms. Sullivan's poems are told in a variety of voices and perspectives – male and female, each in a different context, with myriad thoughts and emotions about their childfree lives and their nurturing relationships with the children of friends and siblings. She says she hopes the poems offer nuanced insight into the human desires, choices, and misfortunes that lead some to become parents and others not.
The poems in The Childless Mother suggests that those without children cannot be dismissed as selfish, unfulfilled, or uncaring, but are each unique in circumstances and choices, steadfastness and fluctuating feelings. Interviews with a psychologist, a pastor, and several childless/childfree people and close reading of research and literary texts helped inform the perspectives expressed in the poems in The Childless Mother.
The contest for the Ireland Poetry Prize is held in collaboration with the Academy of American Poets (poets.org).
To the Bog of Allen
By Lisa J. Sullivan
(Written in response to Into the Mire by Nigel Rolfe)
You are lonely because
you claim the lonely–
ancient dolmens,
abandoned trackways,
restless folk who fail
to check your depth
before they step.
But I saw that man
who stood on the edge
of your edge
and fell like a domino
into what he thought
was a part of himself.
Your typical lure–
he mistook a water ripple
for a weary mouth
pleading, "Help."
You have always lain
between two sides
of a thing:
The Liffey–The Shannon.
They feed you
even when you aren't hungry.
Did you let him rise
because you had no appetite?
Or have you learned to tell
the difference between
those who come to give
and those who come to take?
Dazed with your poison,
I thought he may give in,
but you let him crawl away.
Tell me–has your acidic palate
grown to dislike the taste
of the will of man?

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning did not practice Wednesday in order to rest his ankles. The elder Manning was hit low last week and managed to stay in the game. This injury has been lingering for a few weeks now; however, there's no reason to assume Manning will miss even one play against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Analysis:
The Chiefs are 9-0 and Denver is 8-1. This should be a great game and obviously, it's a big moment for the AFC West. Thinking back, when was the last time this much was on the line for that division? If I had a team of statisticians at my disposal, I'd look that up for you because nothing comes to mind immediately. In any case, Manning is a must-start even if he had his foot decapitated. The guy is having a career year and playing lights out.

Robin Thicke says he's spent $500,000 on marijuana
Listen to Robin Thicke on iHeartRadio
Robin Thicke is giving fans an idea of just how much it costs to write a song like "Blurred Lines."
In an interview with "The Sun," the singer said that he's spent "a good $500,000 dollars on pot," the drug he calls his "crutch," his "muse" and "the lesser of all evil."
Robin continued detailing his personal use, saying that he has a friend who runs a medical marijuana store and it's "a non-stop chimney" in his home. He did however say that he has tried to quit using it, adding that he's "quit everything once."
Thicke's single is currently enjoying its seventh consecutive week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, and his latest album is looking at a solid debut sales week as well.

John Brown, one of three principals at housebrand in Calgary, works for one of the most innovative architecture firms around. And how he and his partners got here and continue to innovate was the topic of his packed breakout session, Architecture for All—Design Education as Advocacy.
"Early on I asked myself, why aren't more architects involved in the housing industry," he said. The architect and his partners set out to change that. "We set up housebrand as a vertically integrated company that combines different services—architecture, real estate, education, interior design, and product retailing," he said.
Brown launched housebrand with his wife, Carina van Olm, and Matthew North. They help working families and individuals buy houses and then provide design and construction services to tailor the house to their budgets. But the firm has expanded since the early days. Brown and his partners believe education is the key to creating a client-base that appreciates design, so housebrand launched a design-advocacy movement called Slow Home. "There used to be a time when food was real and home were real," Brown said. "Slow home is about site and materiality, design and construction, quality of life. It's a cultural argument."
As part of its advocacy mission, the firm also buys ad space in a local publication where it addresses design problems and provides answers to resolve them. Weekend workshops also allow consumers to come into the firm's office/retail space to hear presentations about design and to take basic design classes. "Some people spend more time picking out a flat screen TV than they do a house," Brown said.
The design advocacy efforts have yielded interesting results, Brown said. Among them: The public needs and wants to work with you; a public-friendly office location is key; consider information-based advertising; lectures and open houses are good ways to connect with the public; get your real estate license. "Design education as advocacy takes the long view," he said.
