I spent the last 4 days in the presence of greatness. True gluten free celebrities!
The American Dietitian Association Food and Nutrition Conference and Expo in Denver was huge. It had over 10,000 attendees and about 400 vendors. The conference covered many areas of food and nutrition, including gluten free.
There were many gluten free celebrities at the conference. I wish I had more time and had been able to speak with many more.
Please let me introduce you to 10 of the super stars I met.
Nancy Baker, National Foundation for Celiac Awareness Director of Education, and my roommate at the hotel. Nancy is doing truly amazing work, educating food manufacturers and food service facilities of all stripes how to produce gluten free items.
Anne Roland Lee, Director of Nutritional Services for Dr. Schar. Before joining Schar, Anne worked at Columbia in the Celiac Disease Center with Dr. Peter Green. Anne presented at the conference on "Treating Your Patients with Celiac." I think it should have been called "Caring for Your Patients with Celiac." Anne's thoughtfulness, experience, and understanding showed through her session.
Melinda Dennis, Nutrition Coordinator of the Celiac Center at Beth Israel Deaconess. She does research too. Melinda also owns Delete the Wheat, offering classes, coaching, supermarket tours, even mountain retreats. Melinda ably presented case studies at the conference. She is charming, smart, fun, and very tall.
Marlisa Brown, owner of Total Wellness. Marlisa is a registered dietitian, certified diabetes educator, and a chef. She created Gluten Free Easy blog. She is a bundle of energy and her new book Gluten-Free Hassle Free will be released soon.
Tricia Thompson, the Gluten Free Dietitian, is a consultant, researcher, and author. I refer to her Living Gluten-Free blog on diet.com often. Tricia is the go to gal for accurate and current information on labeling and ingredients.
Jim Garsow, TH Foods, manufacturer of Mr. Krispers and Crunchmaster multi grain and multi seed crackers. Mr. Krispers are available in my local store. Crunchmaster crackers are at Sam's Clubs. Both crackers have useful online store locators. Both are also delicious, you will not hesitate to offer to everyone.
I met Jim before the conference. The crackers are made in a plant about a half hour from my house. I already knew I like them, all of them.
Elana Amsterdam of Elana's Pantry. Many of you know this, but I must say it again. She is so sweet. Elana was signing her beautiful new cookbook The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook.
I was fortunate to also get the last chocolate chip cookie from the cookbook. Awesome! It was soft and slightly chewy, not a bit crumbly. Sweet, not too sweet. I'll definitely make them, and can't wait to try more recipes from the book.
Rhonda Kane, Consumer Safety Officer at the FDA. Rhonda is part of the team working on the gluten free definition that we are (im)patiently waiting for. Rhonda calmly, and in as much detail as we wanted, answered all of our questions.
Margaret Masiello, clinical coordinator for the Kogan Celiac Center at Saint Barnabas Health Care System in NJ. With the help of NFCA, Margaret instituted gluten free information and offerings into the whole Saint Barnabas System. Having worked in health care systems, I am in awe of her accomplishments.
Udi's, people are talking, "Udi's bread is just like regular bread." Folks are ordering cases shipped to their homes. Now I can see why. It is true! I tried thin pizza crust too, it was mighty fine.
So these are some of the folks I consider celebrities of the gluten free world, the true super stars. The ones who are truly making a difference.
Collectively they counsel, research, educate, write, create recipes, manufacture, and distribute to the gluten free world.
They are also are smart, creative, effective, helpful, and caring. I am so fortunate to have met them.

Full disclosure: I am grateful to the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness and Schar, who funded most of my costs to attend the American Dietetic Association Food and Nutrition Conference and Expo 2009.
Schar is the European market leader in gluten free foods and is new to the US market. My local grocery store carries Schar products now, and I am so glad they do. Schar offers pasta, breads, crackers, and cookies. My favorites are the hazelnut wafers, the crisp bread, and the super thin cracker.
I was also pleased to meet Schar representative Katrhin Vantsch from Italy. Katrhin is the Italian equivalent of our dietitian. I enjoy learning other countries perspectives on gluten free foods and intolerance.
Who are your gluten free celebrities?

Recipe Find: Tex-Mex lasagna a real crowd-pleaser
Updated 4:09 am, Monday, June 18, 2012
Who doesn't like a dish that's good for entertaining, tastes better when it's assembled a day in advance, and uses familiar ingredients?
Our find this week covers all those bases nicely, and it's all thanks to a request from Eleanor Castle.
She writes, "I have lost a real crowd pleaser of a recipe. I (hope) you may be able to help.
"I think I may have gotten this recipe from the Express-News in the 1980s or the 1990s. That's where almost all of my recipes come from, so there is a good chance I got this one from you.
"The recipe name is Green Chile Lasagna and one recipe makes enough to fill two oblong pans. I always made one to serve to my family and froze the other to keep on hand either for another family dinner or to take to a friend when she had a new baby or other family emergency.
"The recipe uses regular lasagna noodles, not tortillas, but then it has a (Tex-Mex) flavor from green chiles, ground beef and sour cream. There is a similar recipe that uses flour tortillas but it is not the right one.
Food & Drink Channel
"Thank you."
I can help Castle with her request, though I can't be sure that we ran this recipe in our newspaper previously. Our computer files only go back to about 1991 and it didn't show up in the search I conducted. And I've handled too many recipes in my past 30 years writing for the Express-News to recall many specific ones.
But, after searching through multiple community cookbooks, I found a recipe exactly as Castle described in an early H-E-B cookbook called "Texas Favorites: A Collection of Family Recipes" that was published in 1985. We may or may not have done a story on the book and published the recipe, but the timing is right, and likely this would have been the type of cookbook we would have written about. The book says these Texas favorites "were selected by a panel of judges and their task was not an easy one. We received hundreds of recipes" from customers and H-E-B partners. This recipe was submitted by Cheryl Thomas of Austin and just as Castle remembered, it makes two baking dishes of lasagna.

PALM COAST, Fla. - Flagler County deputies evacuated six homes Tuesday evening in connection with a fire at a home on Woodstone Lane in Palm Coast that started just before 11 p.m. and resulted in one person being hurt.
The state Fire Marshal has been called in to investigate the cause of the fire, which has initially been deemed suspicious, investigators said.
The Palm Coast Fire Department was able to extinguish the fire, which fully engulfed the home. Flames could be seen coming from the roof, according to deputies.
The resident, 54-year-old Harold Pizzetta, was found sitting in a chair in the corner of his fenced yard where he apparently had been during the fire and firefighting efforts, according to deputies. He said someone had broken in, set the fire and left.
Pizzetta was taken to Florida Hospital Flagler for treatment of burn injuries. Firefighters determined there were no other occupants of the home.
Deputies said the size of the fire and strong winds forced the evacuation of houses in the immediate area.

Steinway is said to have built some of the finest pianos in history, and this was one of their most elaborate square grand models of the Victorian era.
This piano was built by the famous Steinway & Sons Piano Company in 1871 during the height of the square grand piano's popularity in Victorian America. Much of Steinways reputation and fame was gained from the advances they made in square piano building during the 19th Century, and their designs and patents were used for decades. This piano is made of the Rococo Victorian Style. The case is made of stunning rosewood, and it is of the desirable cabriole leg style with carved music rack and pedal lyre. The ivory keyboard is good enough to be restored. The piano is being in rebuilt to like new condition, inside and out. This piano can be fitted with the computerized player mechanisms if desired.

This dinosaur is talking patriarchy
As we wrap up the final plenary of the 2012 National Sexual Assault Conference, I reflect on the powerful undercurrent pulsing through the rooms. We sparked these three days with the goal "Revive, Rethink, Reclaim," set forth by this year's conference host. The Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault crafted a conference that called the bright and engaged activists in the room to return to the roots of the movement. Let's get back to feminism. Let's get back to talking about patriarchy.
Our opening keynote speaker, Cassandra Thomas, stirred the fire of anger and passion. She called for attendees to fuel their outrage over the horror of sexual violence. During this moving address, I heard the first of many references to patriarchy and its curious absence from our work. A perplexed Thomas challenged that "nobody talks about patriarchy anymore!?"
Later, during an intriguing session on the links between pornography and violence, Bob Jensen mused that if you talk about patriarchy, you're a dinosaur. Patriarchy isn't pleasant dinner conversation. It's not something that you open with…
"Hi folks, I'm Ali. Really glad to be here. By the way, there's a systematic, institutional, and pervasive illness that sickens our culture and stamps on the value and safety of women."
Patriarchy is disgusting, it's awful, it hurts people. People of all genders struggle under the oppressive weight of it. Patriarchy girds rape culture. It embraces victim blaming. It laughs at racist jokes. It gay bashes. It tells a child raped by a coach to get over it. It sneers to a migrant worker, "learn English, go back where you came from." It refuses sex education to people with cognitive disabilities. It sexualizes children in advertising, turns women into objects, glamorizes sexualized violence.
I'm going to take my cue from the revolutionaries at this conference. Let's talk about patriarchy. Let's see it, name it, and challenge it. How exciting it is that we are developing alternative visions of this world? This dinosaur is pretty amped to get started.
Hi Ali, that is some introduction! No seriously, your blog did make
me think - I've seen such change in my lifetime, but we still have
so far to go. Thanks for the encouragement!
Thank you for sharing you thoughts. Good to know there are lots of us who still want to talk about the big picture changes!

- About Plattsburgh
The Civility in the Workplace educational initiative began as a joint labor/management initiative in the Fall of 2011 and continued through the Spring of 2012. The initiative is part of SUNY Plattsburgh's ongoing commitment to an inclusive environment where all employees, students, parents, and guests feel welcome and safe. Our goal is to make SUNY Plattsburgh the best place it can possibly be for all of us.
In the Fall of 2012, the initiative expanded to encompass community building as a major theme for SUNY Plattsburgh.
Major components of the initiative include:
Civility in the Workplace Survey: The October 2011 Civility in the Workplace Survey was distributed to all employees through Zoomerang or a mailing. The survey helped us to establish a baseline for the campus community on what we consider to be civil/acceptable behavior. The survey also helped us to identify problem areas and work on solutions for the future. A follow-up survey is planned for the future. Download Summary of Civility Survey (PDF file size 229KB).
"Research on workplace civility confirms that a civil workplace is essential for good customer service, employee retention and productivity, and overall workplace health..." - www.becauseitmatters.net
Civility Poster Contest: In November of 2011, all employees were invited to participate in a poster contest to promote civility on campus. A $50 gift certificate to the campus bookstore was given to the winner—Brady Blake in the Printing and Duplicating Office. Five hundred copies of the poster were printed and distributed to campus offices and posted in employee lounges and workplaces. Download PDF of Brady Blake's Civility Poster (PDF file size 350KB).
Programs and Speakers: In the Fall of 2011, Joel Neuman gave a presentation on Civility in the Workplace: The Prevention and Management of Workplace Aggression and Bullying to employees at both the Main Campus and our Branch Campus at Queensbury. The presentation helped us to define uncivil and bullying behavior and also to look at potential solutions for preventing and managing such behavior. In the Spring of 2012, Tedra Cobb presented two workshops for employees: Communication—The Foundation of Respect in the Workplace and Creating a Culture of Civility and Respect Workshop. These two hands-on workshops helped participants not only learn about themselves, but also how to resolve conflict and manage difficult conversations.
Cardinals Care "You Made a Difference" Recognition Program: One of the new initiatives of the expanded program is the Cardinals Care: You Made a Difference Recognition Program. Individuals are invited to reward exceptional service above and beyond the call of duty by completing a nomination form and mailing or emailing it to the Civility and Community Building Committee. Nominated individuals will be publicized and a copy of the nomination will be forwarded to the employee. All faculty, staff, and students are eligible for nomination..
Resources: We are collecting a list of websites, books, articles, and other information that you might find useful. If you have items you would like added, don't hesitate to contact one of the below individuals. Download Civility Resources (PDF file size 245KB)
The Promote Community Building Committee and the Cardinals Care Recognition Program would like to recognize this month's nominees – students, faculty, and staff – who made a positive difference or went the extra mile for someone else:
Help build our SUNY Plattsburgh community by acknowledging the special efforts of those on campus.
Everyone is welcome to get involved in this special initiative. If you would like to be added to the email list for information about meetings and programs, please contact one of the following individuals:

CHI Pro Low EMF Professional Hair Dryer
A good blow dryer with a diffuser is absolutely mandatory if you've got hair that's half-way between curly and straight (and yeah, I know that means wavy, but not all the time).

There are a few things that should be noted however for best results. The texture of this product is greasy and thick, which made it ideal for my thick hair. It is a pre-shampoo treatment - meant to be applied BEFORE you shampoo and condition your hair. I loved using this every week or so to give my hair a rest from blow drying, when I let my hair dry naturally. I applied about 1 1/2 inches (it comes out of the tube like toothpaste) to my damp hair, combed it through with a wide tooth comb (sometimes I then twisted it into a low bun), and then let it dry naturally. When it was dried I was very happy with my frizz free waves which were not sticky, oily or weighed down. My hair was shiny, soft and felt really conditioned and healthy. I also love that it's 99% natural. This also worked well for me as a leave-in styling aid. I only used a nickel-size amount on my dry hair and the results were fantastic (more than that and it did feel a little greasy). At first it didn't seem like my hair was absorbing it very well and it felt a little greasy. After a few minutes though, my hair felt really soft and was much less poofy and frizzy and remained that way all day. Editor's Note: This is not for use with thin or oily hair.Tags: beauty, conditioners, organic, hair, Burts Bees, dry hair, damaged hair, organic beauty, hair treatmentsAdded 10 Years Ago from Drugstore.com

Jersey Shore Half Marathon Falls Victim To Shutdown
The Jersey Shore Half-Mararthon has fallen victim to the federal government shutdown thanks to its location but is offering runners an alternative.
The historic race at Sandy Hook Gateway National Recreation Area was cancelled after the federal government failed to reach a resolution Friday. National Parks are closed across the country because of the shutdown.
However, the Atlantic City Marathon Race Series, which runs on Sunday, October 13, will be offering a substantial discount to runners who were registered to participate in the Jersey Shore Half Marathon.
Runners can visit the 2013 Sports & Fitness Expo on Friday, October 11th from 3 p.m. – 8 p.m. or Saturday, October 12th from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. to register. By showing your proof of registration for the Jersey Shore Half, they will offer a discount on the cost of registration.
In a released statement Friday, AC Marathon officials said,
"We realize that many of these runners have been training for months and not having a race to complete their tremendous accomplishment would be devastating! We look forward to hosting members of our New Jersey running community during this difficult time."
For more information, contact the Atlantic City Marathon Race Crew at 609-822-1167 ext. 142.

Quote of the Week
"I have been empowered by my 'culturally unacceptable birth' [breech]."

The Art of Midwifery
A word to the wise about nutrition: Urge the women you serve to treat every day during the last couple of weeks of their pregnancy like it is the day they will go into labor. Many women and their uteruses get exhausted and give up after long hours of labor. Hospital staff often will not let women eat to replace lost energy and nutrition. So they should do it before they get there to avoid the complications that come with a tired body and uterus.

News Flashes
University Hospital of Geneva conducted a study of 705 singleton term breech presentations, 385 of which were planned vaginal deliveries and 320 elective cesareans. There were significantly fewer maternal complications in the planned vaginal deliver group than in the elective cesarean group. Five neonates with major malformations died. There was no difference in corrected neonatal morbidity between the planned vaginal delivery group and the elective cesarean group. Risks independently associated with intrapartum cesarean were nulliparity, maternal age greater than 30 years and higher body mass index. The researchers concluded that "there is no firm evidence to recommend systematic elective cesarean section for breech presentation at term."

Breech Pregnancy and Birth
In Langer et al.'s 1998 meta-analysis, all the data collected came from obstetric departments with strict selection protocols and specialized medical care available at birth. In a sample of 7,239 breech births, there was no increased risk of mortality with vaginal breech birth. They did find an increase in risk for morbidity but argue that the wide variety of definitions of morbidity makes this difficult to interpret, and draw attention to long-term follow-up studies suggesting that there appears to be no significant difference in long-term handicap between vaginally and abdominally born breech babies. They conclude that "the process of resorting to caesarean section for every breech presentation at term does not seem defensible."(1)
Weiner concluded that "when good clinical sense was applied, the selected near-term breech and term breech fetus was delivered as safely through the vagina as through the abdomen." He also pointed out that "cesarean section did not eliminate the risk of a traumatic delivery."(2)
Stein reviewed four studies comprising 2,610 breech babies. He found no significant differences in mortality or morbidity between vaginal and caesarean births.(3)
However, there are meta-analyses which suggest benefits of elective caesarean section. Spelliscy-Gifford et al. pooled studies to form a group of 3,056 women, 1,231 of whom had a trial of labour. They found small improvements in babies' outcome for the caesarean group over the vaginal group in both morbidity and mortality, though they point out that "the risk of fetal injury in either case is small." Risk for mortality was not significant when analysed alone. They concluded "the potential increased risk of neonatal morbidity after a trial of labour should be considered along with the increased maternal risk from caesarean delivery." Their study has been critisized for choosing its criteria for injury arbitrarily.(4)
Cheng and Hannah reviewed studies which included 12,278 women. Their conclusion, though apparently supportive of caesarean section is a cautious one: "The results suggest that planned vaginal delivery may be associated with higher perinatal mortality and morbidity rates than planned caesarean delivery. Because of selection bias in the majority of studies, differences in outcomes may be due to factors other than the planned method of delivery. An appropriately sized randomised controlled trial is needed to answer this question definitively."(5)
This study was criticised for including studies as old as 1972. Difficulties with data this old include nonavailability of fetal heart rate monitoring in labour and ultrasound to detect major fetal malformations antenatally, and the dramatic improvement in neonatal care which has occurred since then.
Bingham and Lilford reviewed studies published between 1974 and 1987 and found that vaginal delivery was associated with an increased risk of four deaths and four babies handicapped per 1,000 compared to caesarean section. This risk appeared to decrease in the more recent studies to an excess risk of 2 per 1,000 for vaginal over caesarean delivery. They argue that the apparent disadvantage of maternal morbidity in elective caesarean section may not be as significant as the maternal morbidity produced by failed trials of labour that end in emergency caesarean.(6)

Forum Talk
I need input and suggestions for a woman who has had moderate to severe labial pain, from the middle of the inner labia to up above the urethra since her birth seven months ago. She has been to her obstetrician several times and to a urologist as well. No one can "find" any reason for her pain. She said when she birthed she felt stretching pain in this region, more than she felt with baby number 1. She also had to "hold her baby in and wait for the doctor." She said by the time he came she did not want to push because the pain was so severe. Obviously, she has some physical birth trauma that is not apparent but nonetheless is real. What would you suggest to her to aid in her healing? She ranks her pain between a 3 and an 8 depending on the day and described the pain as stabbing, burning and achy.

Question of the Week
Q: What do you do when you don't have a last menstrual period to track the conception date? I had a tubal pregnancy. After a D&C it was determined that I would need either tubal surgery or Methotrexate. I chose Methotrexate because I didn't want to have part of my tube removed. Subsequent to the Methotrexate, I was getting blood samples taken to confirm that the HCG levels were going down, and they were.
While waiting for my period so that I could start oral contraceptives, the condom broke, and I've been waiting for my period. It's late - I think. I was just getting my cycle back from 10 months breastfeeding so it wasn't regular. If I'm pregnant, what do I do? How can I determine my due date?

Question of the Week Responses
Q: I had beautiful skin before I had children. Late in my first pregnancy my face began to break out in horrible acne. It lasted more than a year before it started to get better. At the time I had a lot of stress in my life with work, school, a misdiagnosis that had me fearing I would lose the baby, and a cesarean. I attributed it to this and the usual hormones associated with pregnancy and breastfeeding. Since I was breastfeeding, no dermatologist would have anything to do with me. I was not willing to give up breastfeeding, but I became reclusive because I was so embarrassed. Now, five years and two more births later, I still struggle with acne, but not nearly as severe. I drink tons of water and eat nutritiously. I am still nursing. Does anyone have any suggestions or insight?
— Eva
A: I would give a homeopath in your area a try. You can find out about homeopathy on the NCH Web site: www.homeopathic.org. Homeopathy will not interfere with nursing. It will help you "heal" naturally. You can also search for a homeopathic practitioner close to you on that Web site.
— Kim Costa, RN BSN IBCLC RLC
A: Check out rosacea and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). Both conditions have an onset in the childbearing years due to hormonal changes. A dermatologist may know exactly what it is just by looking at your skin and asking a few questions.
— Elaine
A: I too struggle with acne, although I had a little respite from it during my pregnancy and for a year and a half once my son was born. Your diet does not seem to be the issue; in my case it is not, either. I tried a variety of natural healing techniques to no avail until recently when I came across a book called Dr. Chi's Method of Tongue and Fingernail Diagnosis and started taking some of his herbal formulas (especially Chi-F, which balances hormones). After three weeks of taking the herbs I notice a definite improvement.
— Jenn
A: I, too, went through this with my first child, and I started using Proactiv. It has almost completely cleared my skin of all acne. Now I use it just as a preventive against breakouts. I was very skeptical at first as I had seen it in an infomercial, but I was so desperate that I would try anything. More information can be found at www.proactiv.com.
— Anon.
A: We have had excellent results with a product called "Nature's Cure," a homeopathic remedy sold at Walmart in the cosmetic department. A tablet in the morning and the evening and a face cream once a day is all that is needed. It's safe and it works!
A: You might want to have your thyroid levels checked. Pregnancy can cause a previously normal thyroid function to become altered. Some people with hypothyroidism experience increased acne. For some, treating the hypothyroidism greatly decreases the severity and frequency of their acne. Find a doctor who will take your concerns seriously. Get your TSH and Free T3/Free T4 levels checked. Keep in mind that some "borderline normal" levels accompanied by symptoms may actually benefit from a trial of meds, too. Although it's still controversial, some docs are coming to believe that a much narrower range of "normal" is actually most desirable. Do some research on thyroid issues (see www.thyroid-info.com/articles.htm) and discuss what you find with your doctor.
— Anon.
Q: Has anyone had a mom who bleeds excessively? This mom has done many herbal/vitamin supplements to build her blood and still has a history of excessive bleeding prior to delivery of the placenta. As her uterus clamps down to deliver the placenta, there is a significant gush of blood. Pitocin has been the only thing her previous midwife used that was effective, but I am looking for an herbal remedy.
— Robe
A: I'm a mom of two who hemorrhages like this after birth. With both births I was given Pitocin immediately following (it was administered via IV in the hospital w/ my son and a shot in the perineum after the birth of my daughter at home). After my son's birth the attending doctor told me I'd lost three pints of blood, "about twice the normal amount." That was a sobering thought, considering I refuse blood transfusions.
During my pregnancy with my daughter my midwife had me taking red raspberry leaf capsules (6/day), drinking one-quarter cup of chlorophyll daily (to boost iron), and I drank red raspberry leaf and mother's milk teas. I also discovered that the homeopathic remedy erigeron canadensis helps stop hemorrhaging after birth. I still lost a considerable amount of blood but I think it may have been because I hesitated to take it until some time had gone by. I still think it worked, though, because the bleeding wasn't as much as what I lost with my son's birth. I've also heard of some moms who eat a piece of placenta or put a small piece under their tongue and the bleeding stops.

Regarding post-cesarean uterine repair [Issue 6:22]:
I observed two uterine repairs this year. One physician did the repair by enclosing from the exterior edge through to the inner edge of each side of the wound of incised uterus and bringing the sides together. She did repeat the process. Even though there were two rows of stitches, this is a one-layer repair. The other physician placed the stitches from the interior of the uterus through half of the body of the uterus on each side of the wound, bringing the inner layer together. Then the second layer was brought together by going from the exterior to the middle to close the wound completely. There was a huge difference in the look of the integrity of the uterus. The first looked rough and ragged; the second looked smooth and closed. I have found that physicians' surgical reports do not make it absolutely clear as to how the sutures were placed to differentiate between rows or layers. I'm also not sure physicians always know the difference.
— Elaine Taylor, CPM, LDM
I am a nurse who has been working in the homebirth field for about 27 years. In this current atmosphere of fear and anxiety regarding the flu and the shortage of flu vaccine, I have to question the protocol that has been set up wherein pregnant women and children are given priority for receiving the flu vaccine. How can it be safe for pregnant women and children to receive the vaccine when it is preserved with thimerserol (mercury)?
— Joy Jones
In response to homebirth quote critique by Marigold Hibbert of Cedartown, Georgia [Issue 6:22]: I am very happy to hear what an amazing birth you had. After all the research and effort you put in, you deserve it! I think it is great to let others know how amazing a hospital birth can be when the right set of people and ideas come together. I had just such a birth as well, that included two midwives, a doula, my husband and mother-in-law. Through a lot of effort and research, I was able to have a birth that was not a "medicalization of her [my] body's normal function."
However, I truly understand what the quote was saying. I also had a homebirth with my first child. "When a woman births at home, it is a demonstration of civil and medical disobedience that defies the medicalization of her body's normal function while it honors her inherent, amazing power" [Issue 6:20]. No one asks you if you are going to birth at a hospital or at home - they always assume a hospital. When people found out I was going to birth at home, with my first baby - Horrors! You'll die! The baby will die! Little did they know that a homebirth was as safe as or safer than a hospital birth. I made sure they did by the end of our conversation.
Both experiences were great, and I give all the credit to the midwives. They had already fought a lot of battles with the hospital on my and other moms' behalf. However, there are so many things that I couldn't do at the hospital that I could at home, such as eating, relaxing in a tub, getting away from laughing nurses, etc. I had a lot more leeway at home than I did at the hospital.
The real question I always ask is, Where are you and your chosen birth team going to feel the most comfortable? If it is at the hospital, then that is absolutely where you should be. If it is at home and you are a normal healthy mom, then you should be at home.
Thank you, Marigold. The more people who bring safe natural birth to the hospital, the more they see how amazing and wonderful (and cheap) it can be for them. And thanks to all the ladies who birth at home. The more business the hospital loses to homebirth, the more people will see homebirth as a viable choice, and the more the hospital will see that their methods are based on shoddy assumptions.
— Karen Crow, AAHCC
Sunset is the time the State of Texas decides whether to keep the Texas Midwifery Board or not. It could also be decided to move the Midwifery Board under the Nursing Board in an effort to consolidate the number of boards needing management and review. If the Midwifery Board ceases to exist, midwifery and homebirth will also cease to exist. If the Midwifery Board is moved under the Nursing Board, the Texas Medical Association (TMA) will be able to control and dissolve Texas midwifery by summarily rewriting the Midwifery Rules of Practice. For example, changing the rules to require midwives to have physician back-up in order to practice, which opens the door to doctors refusing to give the midwives back-up, can make it impossible for them to practice legally. This situation has the ability to change the family freedom to select midwifery and homebirth in Texas.
In the past, TMA has taken subtle action against Certified Nurse Midwives - some hospitals in Texas abruptly ended their CNM programs while citing expense as the excuse. Another obvious attack on midwifery was TMA's blatant stalling and opposition during the rules revision process of the Texas Midwifery Board - TMA held it up for over a year. TMA has taken extreme measures to shut down midwifery in Texas. Their efforts have included lobbying for an insidious midnight amendment which would give them the right to rewrite the midwifery rules and eventually make it impossible to legally practice midwifery. Their representatives at the last legislative session made it clear that they intend to try again at the Midwifery Board Sunset Review. They intend to remove midwifery from Texas family care. This is the time when supporters and consumers can communicate the need for access to midwifery and homebirth.
For more information and background about Sunset Review, the significance for midwifery in Texas, and why consumer action is essential, see: www.tfmidwifery.org/Sunset.htm and www.tfmidwifery.org/The%20Sunset%20Risk.htm

Key Attributes
- Manages Outdoor Development Resource and Mobile Climbing Walls UK
- 20 years experience ranging from cycle mechanic to shop manager to outdoor instructor
- Active in Cycling UK course delivery since 1999
- Based in Lancashire, covers the UK
Once I had completed my initial mountain bike leader course, I was then "forced" to work off my course fee for the Outdoor Education Centre who had covered the cost of my initial course. My love of cycling and climbing combined with my abilities with the spanners kept me busy there for years!
Prior to this however, I had (of course) started riding bikes at a pretty early age.
Now working with Cycling UK enables me to meet lots of amazingly interesting people, both colleagues and participants. The overall ethos of Cycling UK integrates with my own thoughts wonderfully too.
My own time is spent doing just about anything involving the outdoors, riding my bike, fixing bikes, walking with my dog, riding my bike! You get the idea!

Reunion '98Logic Grid puzzles come with a handy interactive grid that will help you solve the puzzle based on the given clues.
It's reunion time for the class of 1998, and it's your job to gather information on all of your former classmates for the reunion directory. You have finally organized all the information, but as you are handing it to the publisher's messenger, he clumsily drops a few pages into the shredder! You manage to rewrite most of those pages, but you realize you are missing some information on five of your classmates (3 men and 2 women). You need to match each person with his/her spouse, last name, occupation, and the city in which he/she lives. All you have to work with is what you recall from your notes, and your memories of your classmates from school days.
CLASSMATES: Casey, Dana, Jordan, Drew, Kelsey
SPOUSES: (women) Anna, Karen, Jane, (men) Matthew, David
LAST NAMES: Campos, Jones, Kaufmann, Smith, Thompson
OCCUPATIONS: lawyer, social worker, disk jockey, pediatrician, news anchor
CITIES: Lawton, Helena, Dayton, Madison, Springfield
1) The male classmates are the one from Madison, the one from Helena, and the lawyer.
2) The five classmates are Casey, the man that married Jane (who is not from Helena), the woman surnamed Thompson, the disk jockey, and the woman who lived in Lawton.
3) You recall that only two classmates (1 man and 1 woman) married people with the same first initial as their own. They both have jobs in the media industry.
4) You can also recall that nobody (including spouses) has a last name with the same initial as their first name.
5) The monogram on Karen's towels is the same forward as backward. Her last name is not Campos.
6) David's wife became the anchor for Lawton's 6 o'clock news. Her best friend became a pediatrician in Dayton.
7) Mr. and Mrs. Kaufmann's first initials are the same as the abbreviation of Mr. Jones' occupation.
8) In high school, Dana was always very compassionate and eager to help anyone in need. It is no surprise that he became a social worker (not in Dayton).
HintAll classmates' names are unisex. You must determine which are male and female.
A monogram generally consists of a husband's and wife's first initials on either side of their last initial. (ex: Tim and Janet Brown = TBJ)
AnswerCasey Smith married Anna and became a lawyer in Springfield.
Dana Kaufmann married Jane and became a social worker in Madison.

Think You Know the Original Host of 'The Dog Whisperer' Series? Here are 10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Cesar Millan
Cesar Millan is coming on November 23 to the Centre and though Ihave seen him in countless television shows, I was curious about his background. I did a little research and found out 10 things that you might not have known about Cesar. Check them out below!
- Cesar is a a New York Times Best Selling author – he has had multiple best sellers including Cesar's Way.
- Cesar's first nickname was "the dirty dog boy" – because of his way with dogs on his grandfather's farm in Mexico. Cesar tried to not let the names get to him and is now an advocate against bullying.
- Jada Pinkett-Smith was one of Cesar's first famous fans and supporters. He told her that he wanted to be on TV so she paid for an English tutor to help Cesar learn the language.
- Cesar worked as a limo driver when he first moved to the United States.
- Cesar spoke no English when he moved to America but is now traveling the world and giving lectures.
- The Dog Whisper series would become National Geographic's No. 1 show during its first season. It has been broadcast in 80 countries.
- Cesar would walk 30-40 dogs off leash as one of his jobs when he first came to the US. He didn't know it was illegal.
- Cesar has spearheaded several philanthropic organizations including The Millan Foundation and supports other foundations such as Pups on Parole and the It Gets Better project.
- He hosts a new show, Cesar Millan's Leader of the Pack. "It is my hope that Leader of the Pack will prevent the deaths of so many innocent dogs. My goal with this show is to awaken the world to how many dogs are killed unnecessarily every year, how we kill them, and how the world really treats what we call man's best friend. By recognizing what is really happening around the world, we can save the lives of millions of dogs by respecting their love." –Cesar Millan
- Millan's focuses on a general philosophy that he calls "calm-assertive energy." A person's attitude and energy is transferred to canine companions.
You'll be amazed and inspired by the simplicity with which Cesar's Way can bring harmony and balance into your and your dog's lives. See the star of Nat Geo WILD's brand new series Leader of the Pack and the original host of National Geographic's Dog Whisperer perform his incredible dog training techniques, LIVE!

Laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty (LAUP) is a technique that
uses lasers to perform surgery for some sleep-related breathing disorders. It
may be used if you have:
There is debate about whether the laser procedure is an
effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). LAUP has not shown any major benefit for people who have sleep
apnea.footnote 1 And problems swallowing and voice changes are
common side effects from LAUP.
LAUP is not recommended by
the American Academy of Sleep Medicine to treat sleep apnea.footnote 2

Some people slow down when they hit their 70s. Not Jorge Paulo Lemann. Just as Brazil shakes off its hangover from Carnival comes news that the 73-year-old deal-maker, who pulled off the country's biggest overseas acquisition in the form of Inbev's $52bn merger with Anheuser Busch, is on the hunt again, this time for Heinz.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - A law enforcement officer will be assigned to every public elementary school in Alachua County when classes resume next year.
The Alachua County Sheriff's Office will assign an armed deputies at the 12 elementary schools that lie outside Gainesville city limits and a Gainesville police officer will be at schools within the city from 30 minutes before until 30 minutes after school day beginning January 3.
"This will be our No. 1 priority and nothing will be off the table," said Sheriff Sadie Darnell told Alachua County Today. "The safety of children is our focus for the new year. That's our resolution."
The extra patrol officer will cost an estimated $17,500 per week, and the assignments are only temporary, although the entities will look for funding to permanently assign resource officers to elementary schools.
Currently, school resource officers are provided to middle and high schools in Alachua County.
"As we all know, the presence of School Resource Deputies in schools has become an important part of the duty to protect children on campus," said Sheriff's Office spokesman Art Forgey. "The presence of the SRD's also provides a deterrent to those targeting young children around our schools and an expedited law enforcement response to school violence or weapons."
Parents like Chris Harmon are thankful there is a plan.
"I think it's needed, I think it's needed," said Harmon.
But not every parent is convinced it's a perfect solution.
"I just wish we didn't even have to have that, I wish as a mom, that that presence wouldn't be needed, that people are doing these awful things at schools," said Mary Thomas.

Hi, i have never used ruby before, but i was wondering if someone would be nice enough to tell me what it is used for.
I am guessing that it is a server side site programming language, as PHP and ASP are, but why is it its own language?
I dont beleive I have ever seen any life examples and only heard of faint discussion on people using it?
Is it out of date or does it only compile on certain server or is there some specific things that only Ruby can achieve?
In other words, what makes Ruby, Ruby? and why would one chose to programme in Ruby?
Thanks for all your help!
Best regards, Team 1504
Hi,i have never used ruby before, but i was wondering if someone would be nice enough to tell me what it is used for.
Ruby is a scripting language, like Python or Perl. It's used server-side, most frequently as part of the Ruby on Rails and Sinatra frameworks, but can also be used for writing scripts to run locally.
Twitter was originally built in Ruby on Rails, as was Hulu. All the 37signals apps (basecamp, highrise, etc.) are built in Rails, so are GitHub, Shopify, getSatisfaction, and tons of other high-profile sites.
Definitely not out of date, it's under active development. It's interpreted, so it doesn't compile at all (like PHP). I don't think there's anything that only Ruby can achieve (other than making programmers happy )
Most people who like ruby like it because it has very short and readable syntax (compared with the more spaghetti-like PHP), and because it's purely object oriented: everything in Ruby is an object, and behaves like an object.
Many of the key selling points are summarized on the Ruby site's about page:
Hope that helped! Let me know if you have more questions!
Ruby is a scripting language like php or python. It is fully object oriented and also has a very compact syntax
Thank you! I have currently decided to learn Perl and then probably Ruby (without rails) and lastly Python.I love Ruby's syntax but dislike Python's only one way to do something because I am creative. However I love Python's applications especially with GUI. Hmm who knows what ill choose after Perl
Thanks & Best Regards, Team 1504
Hi Team 1504,
With the hep of ruby,
We can able to Upload N number of video files automatically at a time in to Youtube account.
Both of the links demonstrated that functionality.
Automatically open browsers,fill forms,read data from Excel/Text/Doc/Video files and fill/upload in to youtube.
Hi, Could you help me understyand what each of those links are supposed to do?
Thanks in advance, Team 1504
Hi team1504,
Thanks. With the help of ruby we can do the following things
I am sure Ruby is little bit best with Perl for scripting purpose.
Hello jazzezravi— welcome to sitepoint! Thank you for answering my question as your First post.I am currently debating between perl & Ruby (not on rails not yet)
Ruby -- It acts like oops language like Java,C++ and also acts like scripting language such as Perl, Python.
Rails is the killer application. Except Rails, ruby has nearly 40 most importnat libraries in it.They ar esuch as ,
WatirSeleniumCucumberBret-Watircraft Etc..,
Is that true? Team decided on Perl, which I know does compile (sometimes, in parts or in whole, depending on what you're doing... giving you both compile-time errors and run-time errors) and Python does something similar (both compile to byte-code). Are there no compiling parts of Ruby?

LITCHFIELD >> A Torrington resident will be spending the next six years of his life behind bars.
John Pettway, 34, was sentenced to six years, 331 days, followed by five years' probation for second-degree burglary, third-degree assault, second-degree threatening, second-degree criminal mischief and violation of probation.
According to State's Attorney Dawn Gallo, Pettway entered a home in the middle of the night, where an elderly mother and her daughter lived, breaking furniture. Later, he threatened to kill a gas station employee, which left the victim shaken up, and one incident included bloodying a victim's face, Gallo said.
"He was very high on something and is a dangerous person," said Gallo.
Pettway's attorney Ira Mayo said alcohol abuse is a problem for his client and was a contributing factor to his offenses.
The alleged alcohol-induced incident played a role in violating his probation for previous crimes, causing the prosecutor and the defense attorney to find it difficult in adding up how much jail time Pettway will serve. Even Judge James P. Ginocchio deemed it a complicated sentencing.
"This is the most complicated sentencing I've issued in my life," Ginocchio said.
Finally reaching an appropriate sentencing agreement, Ginocchio asked for Pettway's final words on his own behalf.
"I just want to say whoever's house it was, If someone could tell them I'm sorry. I really didn't know what I was doing," said Pettway. "If someone came into my grandmother's house like that I would be very upset."
Attorney Mayo also stated on that this is the healthiest he has seen his client in a long time and is hopeful for his future.
"When he gets out I would like to see him become a basketball coach; he's great with kids and is a great player," said Mayo.
Once out of prison, as part of his probation, Pettway will have to attend alcohol and drug treatment, pay a $400 restitution fee and either obtain a full-time job or enroll in school.

MADISON, Wisc. – Saint Leo University Head men's basketball coach Lance Randall will serve as Thursday night's keynote speaker at the 2012 Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Fall Clinic held October 11 & 12 at the Madison Marriott West. Randall will speak from 7:30-9:45 p.m., and will share his coaching approach at Saint Leo as well as the Lions' 'Zone Attack' and 'Ball Toughness'.
The WBCA Fall Clinic is viewed by many coaches throughout Wisconsin as an excellent opportunity to advance themselves by attending. Coach Randall will address the capacity crowd of coaches in a clinic that has a strong history of successful and recognized names in NCAA Basketball.
Randall joins an impressive list including Wisconsin's Bo Ryan, Butler's Brad Stevens, Kansas's Bill Self, former Tennessee coach Bruce Pearl and New York high school coaching legend Bob Hurley, Sr. as just a few of the prior presenters in the Fall Clinic.
Named the Sunshine State Conference's Coach of the Year in his first season at the helm, Randall has brought his history of successful coaching to Saint Leo, helping the Lions win 19 games and earning the program's first-ever NCAA Tournament berth in 2012. He was only the third coach in the 45 year history of the program to earn Coach of the Year honors.
In 2011-12 Randall led a resurgence in the Lions basketball program. He inherited a team that was picked last in the SSC preseason poll and led it to a third-place finish in the regular-season standings with a 10-6 conference mark. First with a 18-12 overall record, the Lions won nine consecutive games at one point, breaking a program record that dates back to 1987. The hallmark of Randall's squad is hard-nosed defense, and his Lions led the league in scoring defense and finished fourth in the nation, permitting just 58.7 points per game. Saint Leo also led the league in holding its opponents to a 39.6 percent field goal percentage and 30.4 percent three-point percentage.
The WBCA is comprised of over 3,000 members at all levels of basketball within the state of Wisconsin. The Goals of the WBCA are to promote and maintain the highest possible standards in the coaching profession in our state; to work together with the WIAA for the improvement of conditions along with the promotion of Wisconsin high school basketball; to secure a better understanding of the problems that face coaching professionals and provide information and assistance to member coaches to better deal with these issues; to help resolve mutual problems of basketball coaches and to provide and promote for its members the latest coaching methods and techniques of teaching basketball; and to foster good fellowship and social contact among coaches, referees and other key stakeholders in the game.

Visa and South African Tourism partner to promote SA
Our relationship with Visa is of a symbiotic nature, and we see it as a long-term venture that will benefit the South African economy and position the country as Africa's prime tourist destination.
Global payments technology company Visa and South African Tourism (SAT) have teamed up to promote both South Africa as a tourist destination, and visitors' use of the Visa card.
Titled 'South Africa and Visa Welcome You', the promotion will not only articulate South Africa's tourist appeal, but also the country's advanced electronic payment network, which supports payments by Visa cards.
According to Phumi Dhlomo, regional director for Africa and domestic at SAT, the alliance will see the 2 organisations pooling resources to promote South Africa as the destination of choice and to provide useful tips to tourists on how to manage their travel expenses safely and conveniently.
'Our relationship with Visa is of a symbiotic nature, and we see it as a long-term venture that will benefit the South African economy and position the country as Africa's prime tourist destination,' he said.
Over the coming months Visa and South African Tourism will embark on activities promoting tourism, as well as the convenience of card usage while in South Africa. These will support retailers' end-of-year sales in January 2013 with POS visibility and card activation campaigns to drive visitors in-store. The Africa Cup of Nations soccer tournament in January/February will provide an opportunity to highlight the South African retail sector.
Visa's report, 'Tourism Outlook: South Africa', released in September, showed that tourist arrivals to South Africa rose 3% in 2011 despite tough global economic conditions. Increases from neighbouring countries Angola, Mozambique and Nigeria were particularly notable.
Visa and SAT hope to further strengthen inflows from emerging markets such as China and India, and traditional markets like the United Kingdom, United States and Germany.

ELLE's Second Women in Television Dinner Photos
I've just returned from an (almost) two week trip to Rwanda. I have been partnering with the Social Enterprise, Indego Africa, for the past year and it was time for me to take my first trip. Through Indego Africa, I taught a group of women artisans the art of bead-weaving on a loom. In preparation for our third collection and a special (secret-for-now) project, I visited with the Cooperative and conducted some training.
The trip kicked off with a weekend getaway to the Volcanoes National Park for a Gorilla Trek—the same place Dian Fossey conducted her Gorillas in the Mist research! After a three hour, uphill climb, we were just feet from a family of Gorillas—an experience of a lifetime.
The rest of the week was spent visiting cooperatives—beaders, sewers, weavers, metalsmiths—amazingly skilled Artisans—a true inspiration!
Here, traditional African Dancing kicked off the gorilla trek.
You can see how close we were.
