The amniotic fluid that bathes the fetus is necessary for its proper growth and development. It cushions the fetus from physical trauma, permits fetal lung growth, and provides a barrier against infection. Normal amniotic fluid volume varies. The average volume increases with gestational age, peaking at 800-1000 mL, which coincides with 36-37 weeks' gestation. An abnormally high level of amniotic fluid, polyhydramnios, alerts the clinician to possible fetal anomalies. Inadequate volume of amniotic fluid, oligohydramnios , results in poor development of the lung tissue and can lead to fetal death.
In pregnancies affected by polyhydramnios, approximately 20% of neonates are born with a congenital anomaly of some type; therefore, the delivery of these newborns in a tertiary care setting is preferred. This article presents the causes, outcomes, and treatments of polyhydramnios and oligohydramnios, as well as their effects on the developing fetus and neonate.
Rupture of the membranes is the most common cause of oligohydramnios. However, because the amniotic fluid is primarily fetal urine in the latter half of the pregnancy, the absence of fetal urine production or a blockage in the fetus' urinary tract can also result in oligohydramnios. Fetal swallowing, which occurs physiologically, reduces the amount of fluid, and an absence of swallowing or a blockage of the fetus' GI tract can lead to polyhydramnios.
United States
Oligohydramnios occurs in 4% of pregnancies, and polyhydramnios occurs in 1% of pregnancies.
See the list below:
Chamberlin used ultrasonography to evaluate the perinatal mortality rate (PMR) in 7562 patients with high-risk pregnancies. [1] The PMR of patients with normal fluid volumes was 1.97 deaths per 1000 patients. The PMR increased to 4.12 deaths per 1000 patients with polyhydramnios and 56.5 deaths per 1000 patients with oligohydramnios.
Preterm labor and delivery occurs in approximately 26% of mothers with polyhydramnios. Other complications include premature rupture of the membranes (PROM), abruptio placenta, malpresentation, cesarean delivery, and postpartum hemorrhage. [2]
Studies show an increased risk of associated fetal anomalies in more severe forms of polyhydramnios. In a series in 1990, 20% of cases of polyhydramnios involved associated fetal anomalies, including problems of the GI system (40%), CNS (26%), cardiovascular system (22%), or genitourinary system (13%). [3] Among these cases of polyhydramnios, multiple gestations occurred in 7.5%, 5% were due to maternal diabetes, and the remaining 8.5% were due to other causes. However, at least 50% of the patients had no associated risk factors.
The mortality rate in oligohydramnios is high. The lack of amniotic fluid allows compression of the fetal abdomen, which limits movement of its diaphragm. In addition to chest wall fixation, the lack of amniotic fluid flowing in and out of the fetal lung leads to pulmonary hypoplasia. Oligohydramnios is also associated with meconium staining of the amniotic fluid, fetal heart conduction abnormalities, umbilical cord compression, poor tolerance of labor, lower Apgar scores, and fetal acidosis. In cases of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), the degree of oligohydramnios is often proportional to growth restriction, is frequently reflective of the extent of placental dysfunction, and is associated with a corresponding increase in the PMR.
In twin gestation with twin-to-twin transfusion, polyhydramnios may occur in the recipient twin, and oligohydramnios may occur in the donor. This complication is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates.

Ok, so there's a lot of contraversy over women wearing thongs. 14-year-old boys who love seeing them on girls in Maxim turn into 44-year-old men with daughters that age & who cringe to find the bubblegum pink strip of cloth in the laundry, knowing it's definitely not his wife's. His head races with all the things she could be doing that those girls did with him back in his high school and college days. Or at least I'm guessing that's what goes through any dad's mind, or any young man who expects a daughter someday.
It's obvious there's sex appeal that comes with them. After all, thongs became mainstream when strippers were required by law to cover their coochie, but nothing said anything about covering the cheeks. Hence, "loin cloths" offered a loophole, & became a feminine thing to wear after strippers brought them into light.
So are thongs really that taboo for young girls to wear? Personally, I wouldn't let my daughter wear a thong until she's 15. But there is some practicality to thongs for any woman, even the purest, most innocent girl. Thongs serve for the avoidance of tacky panty lines, or where the seams bulge out at the butt of your pants. This especially happens with nice slacks or yoga pants, and personally, when I see it on a girl, I can't help but think, "Don't you own a thong?" It just doesn't look good.
If thongs are absolutely too much for someone, I can understand seamless, but let's admit, I & many girls feel cute in a thong. I mean, you get to show off what your mama gave ya, even if it's just within the confines of your pants! Like a little secret you've got; doesn't have to be Victoria's!
So thongs...practical or promiscuous? A bit of both. But it goes with the attitude regarding how & why you wear them. Whale tail? Trying too hard. A nice surprise for your boyfriend? No doubt he'll love it! And even just keeping it classy underneath yogas or snug-fitting slacks is a-ok too. Whatever you decide, play it up with different colors & designs, doesn't hurt to make it fun. :)

Chuan trains with Monk Saicho, who tries a variety of teaching methods to help Chuan calm his emotions enough to master the Air Shield technique...

"No, Chuan, that's all wrong," Monk Saicho was saying, his voice disheartened and his expression tired. "Power in Airbending should be drawn from form. Be flexible, and loose, and acrobatic. If you want to use such force, perhaps you should take up Firebending?"
Chuan sighed and sat down in the floor, drawing his legs up to his chest and resting his chin on his knees. He would never get this right...
Chuan was a boy of sixteen or seventeen with a thin build and broad, tall shoulders. His master, Monk Saicho, was only a few years older, but visibly wiser. He had been the youngest Airbender from the Northern Air Temple to ever receive his arrows at only fifteen years of age.
Monk Saicho sensed his pupil's obvious dismay, and decided to try a different teaching approach.
"Okay, stand up," he said, and Chuan reluctantly got to his feet. "Don't tell any of the other Monks, because they'd get mad at me for going against custom, but let's spar."
Chuan perked up at once. He waved his arms up and wind currents caught the underside of his clothes and lifted him to his feet. He bent his knees and broadened his stance, bringing his hands up in front of his face and bracing for attack.
"Now, if I were to do a simple attack like this, what would you do?" Saicho asked. He took a step forward and pushed outward with his palm. A small gust of wind was pushed toward Chuan.
The attack was so miniscule that he knew it couldn't harm him even if he allowed it to hit him. Nonetheless, he knew the answer his master was looking for, and with a flick of his wrist a staff shot into his hand from off a rack on the wall. Chuan twirled the staff around in his hands and Saicho's small gust of wind was dissipated the moment it made contact with the makeshift fan.
"Very good!" Saicho commended his student. "Resourceful, too. And you only made a move to block my own, instead of one to attack me back. See? You have been learning."
Chuan allowed himself to grin as his master repeated the same lecture that he had given time and time again.
"Airbending is not about the offense, but about the defense. Do not seek to attack your opponent, but simply-"
"-Simply parry his or her attacks defensively, only resorting to violence under extreme circumstances," Chuan finished for him.
"I see," said Saicho, drawing himself up to his full height. "You're bored of the basics, then? Well then, let's see if you can perform the Air Shield, hmm?"
Chuan groaned. His master knew that it was the one move that he simply could not perform. Saicho said it had something to do with him being too offensively oriented, so the defensive techniques would come to him with more difficulty, but Chuan didn't care. He just wanted to learn this amateur move so that he could move on. How could it be that this one mediocre move would be the one that would prevent him from ascending to the next rank? At this rate he would never earn his arrows!
He had discussed the problem with Kaizan over a game of Air Ball the other day, but the advice his friend had given was to just keep trying.
"I mean, you have to get it eventually, right?" he had said.
"Yeah," Chuan had replied. "Sure..."
"Are you ready?" Saicho asked.
Chuan quickly got into the correct stance. He stood with his legs a little ways apart and bent slightly at the knees. With a sharp intake of breath, Chuan managed to nervously respond, "Yes. I'm ready."
Monk Saicho retreated to the corner of the room and grabbed the familiar stick, while Chuan raised his arms to either side and curled his fingers so that they touched the underside of his knuckles. He breathed in and out calmly and felt the air around him whip up.
Saicho nodded and prepared to throw the stick. Chuan screwed up his face in concentration and gritted his teeth together. Then he remembered that he was supposed to be calm for this technique to work, so he relaxed his muscles and tried to imagine his chi flowing through his body. He felt the air around him begin to spin. The sound of wind reached his ears and he breathed out in pleasure.
"Good, good..."Saicho was saying. "You're doing it." He retracted his arm and threw the stick. If Chuan were doing the move correctly, it would simply bounce right off the sphere of air. But if not, he would have another red lump on his forehead to further his shame at yet another failure... Chuan watched as the stick arced through the air, and he tried to focus all of his energy on maintaining the sphere of air around his body. As the stick came closer and closer, however, he felt his concentration slipping. He felt his muscles tighten up as he became nervous. What if I fail? The stick hit the air shield and tore straight through it. The strength of the air managed to deter the motion of the stick enough that it ended of scraping Chuan's arm instead of whacking his forehead, but yet again he had botched the technique.
"No!" Chuan cried as he rubbed his scraped arm.
Monk Saicho sighed. "Come," he said. "Let me mend that."
"No!" Chuan yelled again. "I'm sick of this! Why can't I get this stupid move?"
"Because," Monk Saicho said calmly, stepping sideways to block Chuan's path to the door, "you have too much aggression. Calm the tides of your emotions, or you will never be able to master Airbending."
Chuan turned away from his master, his face glowing red in grief and shame.
"Monk Saicho?" he asked at last.
"Yes, Chuan?"
"May I leave?"
His master sighed, but reluctantly stepped aside and allowed him access to the exit. "Maybe we'll take tomorrow off," his teacher called from the door as Chuan trudged shamefully down the hill.
"Yeah," Chuan replied without turning back around. "Maybe..."

By ROBERT PEAR,
Published: September 12, 1993
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11— Just days after sending a detailed description of President Clinton's health plan to Congress, Administration officials scrambled today to find new ways to pay for it, as they acknowledged that Congress would probably not accept deep cuts in the growth of Medicare and Medicaid.
The officials said they were considering several options, including a new Federal tax on hospitals, if they are forced to scale back the proposals on Medicare and Medicaid, the programs for the elderly and the poor.
Ira C. Magaziner, the President's health policy coordinator, said in May that such a tax could be justified because many hospitals would get a financial "windfall" under the Clinton plan. All Americans would have insurance coverage, so hospitals would be paid for services now written off as bad debt or charity care, he said. Seeking Savings in Medicaid
The hospital tax was not in the plan that Mr. Clinton sent to Congress for inspection this week. But Administration officials said today that the idea was still under consideration as a backup if Mr. Clinton could not get all the savings he wanted in Medicare and Medicaid.
The President wants to cut $238 billion, or 12 percent, of the projected growth of Medicare and Medicaid over five years. He would use the savings to help finance coverage for the uninsured and to expand benefits for the elderly.
Administration officials say they are also seeking other sources of revenue. One option is some form of tax on big companies that operate health insurance plans for their own workers, outside the regional health alliances that would buy coverage for most consumers under the Clinton plan. Doubts in Congress
The question of how to finance Mr. Clinton's ambitious program still vexes many Administration officials and members of Congress, who doubt that the latest proposals will produce all the revenue envisioned.
"I don't know anybody who thinks it's fully funded," said Representative Jim Cooper, a Tennessee Democrat who reviewed the President's proposal this week. Gail R. Wilensky, an economist who was in charge of Medicare and Medicaid from 1990 to 1992, under President George Bush, complained today that the Clinton Administration had "punted on the question of how to finance" the program. "It's not hard to be benevolent if you're not worried about how to pay for it," she said, asserting that Mr. Clinton had avoided "hard choices."
The Administration's 11th-hour struggle comes just days before Mr. Clinton is to unveil the health plan in a speech to Congress on Sept. 22. For months, as he and his aides tried to design a generous, comprehensive package of health benefits for all Americans, they deferred tough decisions about how to pay for it. After a long fight over his budget package, which included many tax increases, Mr. Clinton is skittish about proposing new taxes for health care.
For now, in addition to the savings in Medicare and Medicaid, Mr. Clinton expects to get $105 billion from new taxes on cigarettes and perhaps liquor over the next seven years. He will propose $47 billion of savings in other Federal health programs.
In addition, the White House says the Treasury will collect $51 billion more because businesses will have higher profits and workers higher incomes if medical costs are controlled as Mr. Clinton proposes. C. Eugene Steuerle, a senior fellow at the Urban Institute, said that "if the costs constraints really work," such increases in revenue are plausible. But he observed that doctors and hospitals often find ways of circumventing such controls.
And the prospects for other financing tactics are uncertain. Many Congressional Democrats and some Administration officials say the proposed cutbacks in the growth of Medicare and Medicaid are too big, and lobbyists for the elderly note that Medicare was already trimmed in the budget package just enacted. On Thursday, Hillary Rodham Clinton told Congress that the White House was willing to reconsider these proposals. Capping Health Costs
The premise for many of the numbers in the plan is the assumption that the Federal Government can, by law, curb the growth of health spending. The Clinton plan includes a formula that would put a tight lid on the growth of private health spending, as well as Medicare and Medicaid.
Under this formula, in the year 2000, the Government would not allow any increase in medical spending beyond that needed to keep pace with inflation and population growth.
Hospital officials say the health-care industry probably cannot curb costs so fast, and many Administration officials agree.
In recent weeks, Laura D'Andrea Tyson, chairwoman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, and her staff have raised questions about the validity of numbers being used in the President's plan. But Hillary Rodham Clinton and Mr. Magaziner insist that Medicare, Medicaid and private insurers can save huge sums by cutting waste and limiting payments to doctors and hospitals.
Some Administration officials say they worry that abrupt cutbacks could have devastating effects on the quality of care and access to care. Other officials say such concerns are unfounded and cite the experience of manufacturing companies that have become stronger after cutting costs.

For Fox News, It's All Kicking And Streaming
Originally posted at MediaPost

I'm not sure how this crazy primary season has been for the nation, but it's been a marketing boon for news networks. Specifically, it has allowed them to burnish their brands and suddenly declare — a la Mike Bloomberg — that they are in the TV Everywhere business.
That starts with Fox News Channel, which, in terms of ratings and the elevation of its premier talent Megyn Kelly, has been the single biggest beneficiary of the "Trumpizing" of the White House race. Nothing screams that more than The Donald's game of chicken with FNC over whether he will boycott the January 28 Iowa GOP smackdown because of Kelly being back in the inquisitor role.
What's lost amid the taunts between Fox News supremo Roger Ailes and The Donald is that FNC is taking full digital marketing value out of hosting the debate, for the first time streaming the elephantine smackdown to all who care to tune in — no cable or satellite subscription required. All anyone needs is an Internet connection. The Fox News Go app will also have the debates, as well as terrestrial radio on Fox News Radio.
In other words, even a Fox News that skews heavily to the Modern Maturity set wants to entice the cord-cutters and cable-nevers to its "fair and balanced" world view. The powers that be at Ailes' news machine know that even for its loyalists and the rest of us political junkies, we want our news and info wherever we want it, whether that's the flat-screen in the living room or on an iPhone while stuck in traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge. FNC has been pulling unheard-of-before numbers for the GOP slugfests, so why not add to those gargantuan millions by drawing in the over-the-top TV crowd?


text: PALO ALTO, Calif. ( TheStreet) -- Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is in no hurry to take his company public even as everyone in Silicon Valley and on Wall Street awaits the initial public offering of the social-networking site. "We're going to go public eventually, because that's the contract that we have with our investors and our employees," Zuckerberg told the Wall Street Journal in an interview. But, he added, "We are definitely in no rush." Unlike some of his predecessors such as Apple ( AAPL) CEO Steve Jobs and Google's ( GOOG) founders, Zuckerberg doesn't need huge cash reserves to build factories, a global distribution system or even a massive marketing machine, the Journal notes. "If you don't need that capital, then all the pressures are different, and the motivations to go public are not there in the same way," Zuckerberg said. Zuckerberg has turned down several acquisition offers, the Journal reports. These include a $1 billion offer from Yahoo! ( YHOO) in 2006 and an overture from Microsoft ( MSFT) that was worth a possible $8 billion or more, people familiar with the matter told the newspaper.

The Wilderness years: 1964-1979
he world was changing fast by 1964.
Nikita Khruschev
had been removed by a communist party coup in October of that year and replaced by hard-line
Leonid Brezhnev
President Johnson
had taken power in the US after the assassination of Kennedy, and Britain was now governed by the Labour government of
Harold Wilson
. The conduct of the
Cold War
was also changing. The
Cuban Missile Crisis
had shown the real dangers of the confrontation and each side appeared to agree that tensions needed to be relaxed. The mid 1960s to the end of the 1970s became known as the period of Détente; (French for relaxation of tensions) between East and West. For a period, tensions did calm between the superpowers and a number of arms control agreements were settled or started. Yet the Cold War was far from over, and its focus was shifting away from Central and Eastern Europe and toward the Third World states of the southern hemisphere. The forces of communism were spreading in areas of South East Asia and the focus of US defense policy was to be focussed intently for the next 10 years on containing communist expansion from
and its neighbours.
Greenham remained practically unused as an airfield in the years that followed which also coincided with the closure or rundown of other USAF bases in Britain. SAC no longer maintained operational bases exclusively for its use as it had done since 1951. However, events in Europe meant that the rundown of USAF bases in Britain was only temporary. In 1966, aptly on All Fool's Day, French President Charles De Gaulle made an incomprehensible step of cutting French military involvement in NATO and expelling all US military bases that remained in France. De Gaulle set a deadline that all US forces must leave the country by April 1969. France played host to a number of logistics and supply bases including Chaumont, Toul Rousiéres, Chateauroux, Evreux, Dreux, and Laon. Instead, the US Department of Defense set its own deadline to remove forces from its nine bases and decided to leave by April 1967 in what was known as Operation FRELOC (for French Relocation). Some units were moved to West Germany, others were disbanded and many came to British bases including RAF Alconbury and Mildenhall.
The increased pressure and aircraft on British USAF bases meant that other bases had to be found for various uses. In January 1967, Greenham and
RAF Sculthorpe
in Norfolk were brought back into American use. The base was used as a storage site for the Air Force, manned only by a small number of personnel far smaller than that of its 1950s and early 1960s SAC days. It then came under the charge of the 7551st Combat Support Squadron, serving as the sister site to the huge USAF ordnance storage complex at RAF Welford, near Hungerford until its control passed to the 20th Tactical Fighter Wing at Upper Heyford in May 1970. During this period, many of the personnel working at RAF Welford lived in the accommodation at Greenham.
During these years, the base was used as part of a number of exercises. These included the annual REFORGER (Re-enforcement of Germany) NATO exercises. These served as training for the reinforcement of West Germany by mainly US Forces on a huge scale in the event of Warsaw Pact hostilities against NATO members. Huge numbers of troops would be flown in by transport aircraft from the US and would be parachuted into areas of West Germany. The Soviet invasion of
Czechoslovakia in 1968
demonstrated how this might be necessary. The invasion caused a major NATO alert as it seemed the invasion my have been a prelude to an attack on Romania or West Germany. A small hospital unit was established at Greenham during this time. Mostly though, the base was maintained by a mainly British skeleton support staff.
The base was put to an unusual use in 1972. Ugandan dictator Idi Amin was at the height of his purge of foreigners in the country and many fled to the United Kingdom. A number of refugees were housed in the then empty barracks on the base just left off the main gate.
From 1973, the base became the venue for many years to come for the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund's
Royal International Air Tattoo
. The first had been held at the Essex airfield of North Weald in 1971 and moved to Greenham in 1973. This charity event was established to assist those RAF personnel who were now approaching retirement age from wartime service. At first, this air show was held every two years, but became annual after 1977. At each Tattoo, air forces from many NATO members would arrive at Greenham to give flying and static displays of their planes and helicopters. The base saw many interesting visitors and aircraft we can now only dream of seeing fly,often over 200 aircraft attending. Visitors included RAF Vulcans, F-104 Starfighters, Lockheed Constellations, Lightnings, Javelins, Hunters, F1-11s, F4 Phantoms, and even on occasion, the mach 3+
SR71 Blackbird
reconnaissance jet.

In 1976, the runways at RAF Upper Heyford had to be resurfaced which meant that its
bombers would have to find a new home during the three months the work would take. Greenham Common was not a vast distance from the Oxfordshire home of the
s and was chosen as the temporary base to host planes, crews, and support staff. From March until June, the runways were once again aglow to the roar of jets. The arrival of the F1-11s also meant that their load of B-61 nuclear bombs also had to be sited at the base. This did not present any problems as the storage igloos from the original SAC deployments of B-47s remained on the west end of the base. Soon however, the aircraft and many of the support staff returned to Upper Heyford and for a brief period, the base returned to standby status.

Greenham Common was about to hit the headlines over plans by the Third Air Force. In April of 1977, the Third AF started informal discussions with the British Ministry of Defence for a plan to fully reactivate Greenham with a force of at least 20
KC-135 tankers
as part of an expansion of the European Tanker Task Force. At the time, RAF Mildenhall was already pushed for space and Greenham had a good runway and better facilities and location than other possible bases. In August 1977, work began to extend and refurbish the runways and taxiways. Local people guessed that something big was about to happen at Greenham. Plans for the reactivation were officially announced in February 1978 and led to a storm of protest among local people. A local pressure group was formed to oppose the reactivation. Locals claimed that the KC-135 was one of the loudest aircraft in the Air Force that would cause disturbance to Thatcham which had become a large residential area since the SAC deployments of the 1950s and early 1960s. Plans were even made to send a letter to President Carter.
Boeing KC-135
Eventually, British Secretary of State for Defence, Fred Mulley decided to reject the reactivation in May as it would mean tanker aircraft would have to fly very close to the
Atomic Weapons Establishment
at Aldermaston and concerns that some aircraft might stray over it with serious safety implications. In the event, a home for the tankers was found at the former SAC base of RAF Fairford which had been largely redundant since the RAF withdrew in 1971.
New details soon emerged though that the base might become a site for the
reconnaissance aircraft formerly known as the
. A news report in August 1978 claimed that Greenham Common was one of three bases the USAF was considering using deployment of 15 planes from the 1980s. Mildenhall saw periodic use by reconnaissance planes from 1979 where the TR1 was used for a few years. In the event however, Greenham was not chosen as the TR1 base and the aircraft were eventually deployed to RAF Alconbury.

The end of the 1970s represented turbulent times. It was becoming clear that the Soviets had actually used the relative quiet of the Détente years to rearm, greatly expand and modernize its armed forces. The Western world found itself in a period of economic stagnation following the oil crises of 1973 and 1979. Consequently, its armed forces faced either cutbacks or little in the way of modernized equipment. Unlike the Warsaw Pact states, NATO equipment was rarely interoperable or in any way standardized. The US found itself increasingly reluctant to intervene in trouble spots following the conclusion of the Vietnam war. The Soviet Union however was, in many ways at its very peak of world influence and was supporting several waves of communist activity in the third world which came to be known as "the arc of crisis" (from the Horn of Africa to Afghanistan). Most alarmingly from all this was that Soviet nuclear strength had moved from rough numerical equality with the US in 1970, to an outright superiority by the mid 1970s. Among the new weapons they deployed was an intermediate range ballistic missile named SS-20 by NATO. From October 1977, the Soviet Union was deploying this 2,500 mile range mobile missile in ever greater numbers.Western European cities (and possibly North America) also lived under the shadow of the new

jet bomber which could carry a nuclear payload to Western targets at supersonic speeds. NATO faced a serious threat against which it found itself increasingly poorly able defend against or respond to. Western European leaders called upon the United States respond to these new military, and what were to become intense, political issues.

I always feel awkward when a guy puts his tongue in my mouth and like "swirls" it... I don't know what to do, and I don't think I've ever reciprocated in that way with my tongue in their mouth. Obviously I do like SOME tongue, but I just feel like doing that is weird. Does everybody kiss that way except for me?
When you kiss how much tongue do you use?

No, I like it gently and slowly. My first kiss with tongue was with a guy plowing his tongue into my mouth like crazy. Scared me for life. You just have to talk about that stuff, eventually after a few dates?00|00|0
It wasn't even my first one.. lol. I'm 22, have had different boyfriends that I've dated for years.. but, I just never let that happen? I've been seeing a new guy for a month, and he did that last night, and I just feel like it's so strange! It's someone I'm sleeping with too.. so it's not a fact that it's too intimate or anything.. I just think it's weird... and I don't want him to think that I am weird! lol
I don't use my tongue either. I don't mind him doing it to me but Not Too Much. I like the occassional slip of the tongue. I find that more sexier. If he were to use it the whole time we were kissing, I would probably get distracted and turned off, So it's not just you Lol.00|00|0

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 26/4/2011 (2309 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
WINNIPEG — Manitoba's flood situation appears to be in a holding pattern.
The dikes along the Souris, Qu'Appelle and Assiniboine rivers are holding up, although high water levels are expected to persist along these streams for some time.
Provincial flood officials said this afternoon that the Red River was at "near crest" levels in Letellier — a full foot below the 2009 crest there.
Meanwhile, there are now 1,954 Manitobans who have been displaced by the 2011 flood, including 872 from Roseau River First Nation and 665 from Peguis First Nation.
Flood forecasters said prolonged high flows are expected to continue along the Assiniboine River for the next 10 days. River levels at Brandon increased by two-thirds of a foot over the past 24 hours. The Brandon crest is now expected between April 29 and May 3.
In Winnipeg, the Red River at James Avenue has dropped slightly to 18.36 feet over the past day. However, the Assiniboine will see greater flows in the coming days.
Earlier today, the province announced that it has reopened Highway 30 at Gretna. The Canada-U.S. border crossing there has also reopened.

How can I tell if he's actually serious about us?

great for the priceThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.blue2boyo3 years ago
i have three of these... and they work well. they are a little loose on standard aluminum magazines, but with the strap they will hold. compared to others they are a gud buy for the price; wish they came in other colors (od green, acu). normally with other puches i will remove the elastic strap and the magazines will be hel in place even in heavy movment, but not with this pouch. the loosness does have an added advantage as it will fit bulkyer polymer magazines but i would keep the elastic strap ... on these as aluminum magazines could fall out. for the price this unit is great and wouks well.

Great productThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Snowdog 20201 month ago
It works great for my Glock 19 magazines. they fit great not too tight or loose. and is very comfortable to wear. Really great to use at the range. I'll will be buy another one soon.
I like it, but . . .This reviewer rated product 3 out of 5 stars.solarflare0012 years ago
I have worn the mag holder for about 10 hours now and here is what I noticed. I put two glock 17 mags in the holster and they fit and are held in place, but they are a little to loose for my taste. The paddle holster is comfortable, but there are two tabs on the back that dig into my side a little making it uncomfortable to wear. Granted I am a little soft around the edges, but I am only 10 or 15 lbs overweight for my hight. I do like the way I am able to conceal two mags under an untucked polo. ... The mags are held tight to my body and only slightly print when I bend over. Over all I would say for the price it is a good deal, but it may dig into your side.

What it fitsThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.randyrem3 years ago
For all the folks struggle in the Q&A section, this holster is designed for model 1911 Magazines. I bought it at another location that had a better description. Quality and fit is good, and I recommend it IF your looking for a holster for your standard single stack 1911 style magazines.
Works well for meThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Elaland1 year ago
I'm using this for my .45 magazines, and it fits them well. They are designed for that size clip (single stack). I find the fit reasonably comfortable. I like the fact I can put it on by "clipping" it over my belt rather than having to thread the belt through it. I'd say it's also good for anyone with a concealed carry permit as it rides high enough for a jacket to easily cover it.

Bought this a month ago in preparation of getting CCL in my state. It is exactly what I needed to carry one extra 8 round magazine, JIC.

A Walk Through The Dark
Full Product Description
Read this, the other side of Don Piper's account of his '90 minutes in Heaven'. Don's best selling story is one of 'inexpressible Heavenly bliss' following his incredible return to life following at least 90 minutes with no signs of life following an horrific car crash with zero survivability.
But that's only half the story. Don's wife, Eva Piper went through all the trauma but experienced none of Don's bliss. 'A Walk Through the Dark' is the story of standing at the bedside of a broken man who could do nothing but moan in agony and turn his head away from her, and her step by step journey and transformation into a person she never expected to become.
Don had clinically died before being prayed back to life. Don Piper's testimony of heaven experienced was told in the New York Times bestseller 90 Minutes in Heaven. But for Eva, despite family and friends who kept vigil with her, this was a dark and lonely time.
Though Eva's story runs parallel to that of her husband, her experience is quite different. This is not a tale of heavenly places, but an earthly maze of hospital corridors, insurance forms, tiring commutes from home to workplace and hospital, and lonely hours of waiting and worrying.
Eva Piper brings a unique insight into the trials of heartache, the triumph of overcoming and the strength of faith that held her broken husband and her family together.
A Walk Through The Dark by Eva Piper was published by Thomas Nelson in July 2013 and is our 16430th best seller. The ISBN for A Walk Through The Dark is 9781400204700.

Publisher's Description
The next day she stood at the bedside of a broken man who could do nothing but moan in agony and turn his head away from her.
Later she would learn that he had died and actually experienced heaven before being prayed back to lifea true miracle. Don Pipers testimony, told in the New York Times bestseller 90 Minutes in Heaven, would one day bring hope to thousands. But all that was in the future. Despite family and friends who kept vigil with her, Eva Piper found herself essentially alone. Walking in the dark. And she had always hated the dark.
Though it parallels that of her husband, Eva Pipers account is quite different from his. It takes readers not to heavenly places but through a very earthly maze of hospital corridors, insurance forms, tiring commutes from home to workplace and hospital, and lonely hours of waiting and worrying. This is the story of a woman learning, step by darkened step, to go places she never thought she could go and growing into a person she never thought she could be.
Packed with hard-earned wisdom about what it means to be a caregiver, to open yourself to the care of others, and to rest in Gods provision, this book provides a dependable source of light to help you walk through the dark.

LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) - Justin Williams scored 12 points, including the game-winning put-back with .2 seconds remaining, as Wyoming beat TCU 67-65 Wednesday night.
Brandon Ewing's driving lay-up fell short for the Cowboys, but with seconds to go, Williams grabbed his 14th rebound of the night. The Horned Frogs were called for goaltending on the put-back, sealing the win for Wyoming.
Wyoming (12-11, 5-5 Mountain West Conference) finished the game on an 11-2 run. A Steve Leven three-pointer with 1:20 left brought the Cowboys within 65-63, and an ensuing 10-second violation against TCU (5-18, 1-8) and a pair of free-throws from Brandon Ewing tied the score at 65 with 54 seconds to go.
With his third block in the game, Wyoming's Justin Williams broke the MWC career record for blocked shots. He finished the game with four blocks, making 196 total during his two-year career at Wyoming.
Ewing scored 15 points for Wyoming. Steve Leven added 13. Derek Wabbing scored 12, and Brad Jones added 10 points for the Cowboys.
Nile Murry led the Horned Frogs with 15 points, and Brent Hackett added 13.
The Horned Frogs applied full court pressure to start the second half, forcing four turnovers in as many minutes and opening up a 49-36 lead with 16:03 to go.
The Cowboys came back with a 12-2 run that pulled them within 51-48 with 11:29 left.
Wyoming led by as much as five points in the first half before TCU went on a 10-5 run to finish the period. Art Pierce's three-pointer at the buzzer capped off the run, tying the score at 33.

Do not miss visiting this unique village. Try the fresh baked bread made from the village outdoor oven and also their local specialty dish called makarounas. The best time to go is Easter or the 15th of August. The people of Olympos realy live in their own world and they "worship" their village.
Women play the most important role in Olympos. Everyday, their tasks have been the same for centuries: they weave by hand, cook bread outside, use stone ovens and wood to light the fire, while the cultivation of the land is still a woman's duty. The men are usually overseas working. The people of Olympos live their lives revolving around the feasts of Saints and they have many celebrations year around. Some of them last for days with non-stop music and food and drink. They are extremely hospitable and if you ever addend one of their celebrations, you will be offered food and drink for free. They also still practice the elaborate traditional wedding ceremonial. Traditional hand-women costumes are still worn by the women. In the past, costumes had a status symbol, and it is scandalous for someone belonging to a lower class to wear the costume worm by the elite class. The village is one of the richest in Greece per capita. Change so far has been very limited, unfortunately, the new airport won't help in keeping this "living museum.

What is the easiest/best way to do a checkerboard with fondant? Would it be easier to cover the cake with white fondant and then cut out black squares or paint on black squares or is there a way to make it a checkerboard before covering the cake....
I am thinking covering the cake with white and then cutting out the black squares would be the best...I could be wrong though. Any of your advice would be great. Thanks!
I think you are right on track with covering and then adding the cut out squares. Your lines will be perfectly straight if you use a cutter and it would look much better. That is what I would do.
Not a bad idea but wouldn't the board be uneven? - the black would be slightly raised.
That is what I was thinking, that the black would be raised. I have seen it done that way before and it looks ok, but I have also seen it where it all looks like the same piece or whatever and looks really nice, just wondering of there is any easy way to do it.
I cut out both black & white squares and placed the side by side for the pattern on my Twilight cake. It wasn't hard to do and all of the pieces were uniform that way.

Heatherwood Communities believes in reasonable prices for outstanding accommodations.
Islandia, NY (PRWEB) June 27, 2013
For more than 50 years, Heatherwood Communities has been synonymous with family-oriented Long Island Rental Communities in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Now the firm is advancing into the New York Metro area with two properties currently leasing in Brooklyn and Queens with plans to expand further into the boroughs for a total of four properties leasing or with construction underway by 2014.
"This year Heatherwood is scheduled to open its doors to luxury rental buildings in Long Island City and Williamsburg," states Michael Spampinato, Marketing Director, Heatherwood Communities. "For generations, Heatherwood has provided affordable and amenity-packed communities for suburban families," he notes. "Our expansion toward Manhattan enables urban families the opportunity to lease an apartment in a unique property at readily affordable prices," Spampinato adds. "The public's very positive response to our new initiative has our organization very excited about the future," he concludes.
Heatherwood Communities new offerings stand out from their competitors; each is visually appealing and differs from the norm. One of the two properties that are currently available is 27 on 27th in Long Island City, Queens, which features sweeping Manhattan views (even from lower floors), a rooftop deck and double-height ceilings in public areas. A 27-story building, it has been designed to provide tenants a feeling of privacy with only six units per floor.
The firm's other current offering, The Union, in the heart of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, also features a dramatic glass curtain wall providing great stature and curb appeal. A private outdoor courtyard and swimming pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center and concierge coupled with upscale residences are but a few amenities that are drawing tenants to this new property.
Also in the works is a new Heatherwood NYC website to showcase the firm's upscale Queens and Brooklyn rentals. Two are currently available for lease and a third rental property will be leasing by the end of this year. A 4th Heatherwood NYC property is slated for a ground-up build in 2014. The website will cater to Heatherwood's discerning urban clientele and their requirements by highlighting the luxurious appointments and amenities that each distinctive property offers. Additionally, the site will enable visitors to view floor plans and individual property details. Another convenience, an online application will enable prospective tenants to fill out and submit their choice of both the building and apartment in only a couple minutes.

New Year Goal Of Serving Clients
Back From My New Year Holiday
After all the pre-Christmas festivities I needed a holiday away to recover from the holidays, and to burn off some calories!
Line-dancing and walking along the sea front in Bournemouth (UK) were just what the doctor ordered, and I cannot believe how lucky we were with the beautiful weather.
This is January in the UK!! Amazing 🙂
My friends were well wrapped up, but look at that blue sky! The sea was calm and the sun was bright. At the cafe I even chose an ice-cream instead of a coffee because I was so warm.
On our daily walks we did over 11,000 steps a day (according to my phone's counter) and that was before the evening's line-dancing started!
Where My Internet Career Started
Heading along the sea-front, memories started coming back when I saw the large brick conference centre shown here on the right.
That conference centre in Bournemouth was where my Internet Marketing aspirations were ignited.
I'd seen one of "those" adverts, where for ONLY $100 you can have a 3-day Internet Coaching weekend.
Each coaching session was more fascinating than the last one – to the extent that in the "stampede" at the end – to buy the "strictly limited conference package"….. there I was, along with all the other "wannabees"….. laden down with more courses (yes, physical files) than I could carry to the car. But the sales guys helped me carry them of course!
A Year Later It Could Have Ended
To cut a long story short….. no, I didn't become a millionaire working just 10 hours a week – and even their top man couldn't wring a profit out of a PPC campaign to sell the fruits of my labours. (An ebook about migraine.)
Frankly it was all a bit of a disaster and after slogging away for about a year I faced the miserable facts about that project. I wonder what happened to all the other hopefuls from that Bournemouth conference?
There has to come a point when you stop wasting your time and kidding yourself that something can ever work.
On reflection, the training that was sold to me HAD worked "once-upon-a-time" – maybe a couple of years earlier. But things online change so fast that methods and projects quickly get out-dated.
Despite my disappointment I was left with a sense that making money online COULD be possible. I've never been able to let go of that feeling, and – stubborn to the last – have continued the hunt, with the usual highs and lows that all online marketers will experience.
I truly believe that to be an Internet Marketer you need to invest in yourself and your business for the best possible chance of success.
If you agree, and are interested in a way of taking training courses you can sell on, then click here to learn about Exitus, or the image on the left.
I mention Exitus as an aside because it's a modern and regularly updated training course that affiliate marketers can sell and profit on. Re-selling for profit wasn't on offer when I took my original coaching course from Bournemouth all those years ago.
I learned a lot from that first course (on producing your own online product) – but not enough to cover the cost of the coaching 🙁
Perhaps what I missed at the time was that "THEN" it was all about "ME" and how much money I could make…. rather than thinking of serving clients, which SHOULD be the goal of any business.
Serving Clients Is In My Genes
I smack my wrists to think I forgot that, because "serving customers well" was drummed into me as soon as I was tall enough to see over the shop counter of the family business. Here's my training:
The customer is always right – especially when they are wrong
Serving A Team
At the end of 2016 I wrote about my ecommerce business (TPS – The Perfect Solution) and how it had really started to take off.
So it was actually with some reluctance that I left it over the Christmas and New Year holiday periods.
However, we have Facebook "team chat boxes" where people can ask for help regardless of whose team they're in. And I knew my two upline sponsors would be on hand to help.
I wasn't really expecting a lot to happen over the holidays anyway.
What Can Happen With A Team Effort?
Over the period from Christmas Day 2016 to today 7th Jan 2017 here's what my personal team and the global company team did for me:
- Personal group: grew from 59 to 102 (I caught it on 100, it's more now!)
- Company forced matrix: grew from 1749 to 2725
Best of all, my sponsor Kevin had worked with someone in my team to help her complete the final step required for my first Rank Advancement on the "career progression" within TPS.
That was my February goal smashed out of the water in the first few days of January!
Because of that, I am now an "MSO" – Master Store Owner (which means I have upgraded my own store to Bronze and so have 3 other of my personally sponsored store owners).
You can imagine how learning that within an hour of logging back in to Facebook dispelled any post-holiday blues!
Becoming A Servant In Turn
Just as Kevin "served" me and my team while I was away, it's now my turn to become a servant to my team. Only 3 good legs are required to get all the way to the top of the TPS compensation plan, and I have those already with my 3 Bronze upgrades.
That doesn't mean anyone else will be neglected – because it's best to have at least 5 legs front-line in case one team goes off the boil. I have more than 5 potentially good front-line team members, and I'm sure they'll soon see the potential of TPS.
Earl Nightingale and Being A Servant
The great Earl Nightingale had this to say about the rewards of service:
So whether you are a network marketer or a blogger or a shopkeeper, remember that your goal is to serve your clients, and success will follow.
How Will You Serve Your Clients In 2017?
Enough about me and TPS – over to you….
In the comments below, please share ideas as to how you will be serving clients in 2017.

So for those of you that have seen Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, it's safe to say it was awesome and there should definately be another. The question being: what? here are some thoughts:
-Angelica has the voodoo doll and seeks revenge by trying to kill him, while King George has gotten fed up and sends EVERY floating vessel in his Navy to get Sparrow, who has made himself a fleet with the ships from the bottles. (this one is a likely setup for the actual Pirates 5 and frankly a good one)
-Sparrow is introduced to his brother, who makes him look foolish, and is constantly trying to outshine him. meanwhile Barbossa has decided its time to become immortal and do away with Angelica, who wants the Revenge back. Jack tries to stop him because he loves her. (one of my better ideas)
-The old characters (Marty, Pintel Ragetti, Murtogg, and Mullroy) are reintroduced once the Pearl is freed from the bottle and Jack is reunited with his friends. Barbossa accidently partakes in the curse of Cortez again and needs to go find Turner to once again undo it. (Sorry, I forgot that Isla De Muerta sunk, so this is the least likely of my ideas)
- The Spanish believe to be the new world power as they have just destroyed the Fountain. they launch invasions on England, France, and many other countries. King George pleads to Jack Sparrow for help who again teams up with Barbossa. Together, they try to bring down the Spanish tyranny. (this in my opinion would be the best plot route for P5)
-Blackbeard is dead but the mermaids are impressed with his cruelty and return him to life with whats left of the fountain, which they later try to rebuild. as he is restored to his full power, Blackbeard goes on a new revenge quest to kill Barbossa, and Sparrow. (not happening, just a fun idea)
-The spirits of Davy Jones and Blackbeard are now trapped in Limbo. Both want revenge and both want to not only end Jack Sparrow but now the world. As they make their deals with the Devil, they, along with the cursed crew of the Black Pearl (those who died and imprisoned) and the Flying Dutchman (who died) return to the world with one goal in mind: revenge. As their powers grow, the deadly dread pirates begin resurrecting some unwanted guests: the Kraken, Quartermaster, Gunner, Yeoman, and even some new ones, such as a giant eel, a voodoo mermaid army, and the Sirens. Calypso returns to human form momentarily to inform Sparrow, who uses his ships in bottles (recently released) and Barbossa to unite not only the old pirate lords, and pirates, but the Spanish. meanwhile, Jones and Beard have pressganged the English (again) into service. as the world prepares for its showdown, everyone takes their side. (NO WAY this one will happen but it was fun coming up with it)
More ideas
-Jack finally gets the Pearl back to size and finds a misplaced map in his cabin. A map to Atlantis. he tracks down Barbossa who has the only link to Atlantis: the Sword of Triton. After some harsh words, the two agree to work together once again. on the way, they encounter Edward Low, a renowned pirate known for his unorthodox torture methods, who has teamed up with none other then a revenge hungry Angelica. the race is on. Once there, Triton is outraged that humans would dare to take his sword, and reclaims it as his own. Now declaring war on the human race, the group must try to escape Atlantis while finding a way to stop Triton from killing off the world.
-Angelica was telling the truth when she spoke of the chest of jewels that control the winds and tides. Eventually, she finds passage off of her island and seeks them. Jack hears tell of this and sets out to catch her before she gets out of hand. Barbossa tags along for the jewels. Once he's caught up, Jack sees that Angelica has secretly made a deal with the Spanish to split the jewels, with the majority going to the Spanish, of course. She now has an entire treasure/war fleet at her disposal, and is accompanied by the Spaniard. Jack stows away aboard her flagship, while Barbossa ande Gibbs follow using the Pearl (back to size through unknown circumstances) and the fleet, plus the Revenge. The Spanish dock in a large cave, and use rowboats to push on from there. Jack if found and taken along for the use of his compass. They embark on a trek through a foggy jungle, infested with bones. What Angelica neglected to mention was a curse placed on the Temple the jewels are located in. The Temple, as you get closer and closer, takes off years of your life and so kills you faster. Angelica remembers her extended life, and proceeds alone. As she finds the Chest, she removes the most prominent jewel: a sapphire necklace with a diamond skull on it. She takes it, and immediately feels empowered. Jack, outside the temple, sees a scrap of red cloth on the ground, and recognizes it to be from the voodoo doll. Understanding this, he runs. The Spanish don't get it until the Temple collapses and Angelica (with her newfound powers of the wind and tides) blows them back with hurricane winds. She proceeds back to the cave of ships, where see then sees the Revenge and the fleet. using her gem, she launches her fleet at Barbossa's and the battle begins. Jack, meanwhile, has no idea what just happened, until Syrena and Philip emerge, and agree to help him. As Barbossa fights with Angelica (she wants revenge for killing Blackbeard) Jack tries various traps which fail, and ultimately ends up accidently shooting the diamond skull on the necklace. It violently shakes and begins to glow red, and the Spanish are seen running for their lives as an army of skeletons from various parts of time (the bones outside the temple are resurrected). Jack and Barbossa fire at them from their ships, then leave the Spanish to fend for themselves. The necklace seeks to reunite with the jewels, and begins killing Angelica. She elects to just throw it, but Jack, fed up with her, dumps her overboard and continues on. Later on he reveals he also stole a jewel when no one was looking, and that even if Angelica puts the necklace back, that one's gone so she's done for.

Adding a folder for implementation specific tests will require changing the modules/imageio/build.xml and modules/imageio/make/run-test.xml and changing the src/test directory structure.

text: ArchiveFull text of appeal Below is the full text of Kenneth Bigley's appeal to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, broadcast on Aljazeera. 29 Sep 2004 21:41 GMT Bigley pleaded with Blair to free female Iraqi prisoners "I want to tell my fellow Britons that there is no progress, no negotiations to save my life. And no negotiations to end the humiliation of female prisoners in Iraq. Tony Blair is lying, lying when he says he's negotiating. My life is cheap. He doesn't care about me. Please, please help me and the Iraqi mothers. Mr Blair says he doesn't negotiate with terrorists. The French are negotiating with these people to release hostages. I'm begging you, I'm begging you to push, push Blair to help me. And my mother is in hospital. They tell me my mother is sick in hospital. You helped her, you want to help her ... Have the same compassion for the female Iraqi prisoners. All these people want is the female Iraqi prisoners free. They don't want to kill me. They could have killed me a week, two, three weeks ago - whatever. All they want is their sisters out of prison and back with their families where they belong. And Tony Blair. I'm begging for my life, I'm begging for my life. Have some compassion." Source: Aljazeera
