Your Lung Surgery and Hospital Stay
What can I expect the morning of surgery?
When you arrive at University of Wisconsin Hospital, you go to the First Day Surgery Unit (FDS) on D6/3 where a nurse helps you prepare for surgery. See map on last page. One family member or friend may stay with you in FDS. Your other family members and friends are guided to a waiting area. A nurse asks you questions about your health and helps you get ready for surgery. An anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist meets with you and answers your questions. An intravenous catheter (IV) is placed in a vein of your hand or arm. The IV is used to give you fluids and medicines. You may be given medicine to help you relax.
When you are taken to the operating room (OR), your family and friends are guided to the Surgical Waiting Area on 2nd floor (C5/2, just past the D elevator lobby). Here they are given updates from the OR. They may get a pager if they would like to leave the waiting area. The pager range is within the hospital and parking area. If this waiting area is closed or full, they may use the D4/5 waiting area.
Sometime during the day of surgery, your family or friends may take their parking passes to the main information desk to have them stamped. A parking pass is given to one person to be used during your stay.
What can I expect in the OR?
Once you are in the OR, you meet your nurse. He or she will answer any questions you have, make sure you are comfortable, and explain what is happening. The OR is often cold, so please let your nurse know if you would like an extra blanket. Electrocardiogram patches (also called ECG or EKG patches) are placed on your chest, a blood pressure cuff is put on your arm, and a plastic clip is placed on your finger. The OR staff use these to watch your heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen level. Your anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist asks you to breathe oxygen through a soft plastic mask and medicines are given through your IV.
After you are asleep, a breathing tube (ET tube) is placed in your windpipe to breathe for you. Other lines and monitors are added after you are asleep.
Lung surgery often takes 2-4 hours, but it may take longer in some cases. You will be in the OR only for as long as you need to be and the OR staff will keep your family updated while you're there.
What can I expect when I wake up from surgery?
When your surgery is done, you are taken to the PACU (Post Anesthesia Care Unit). Your breathing tube is removed before you wake up when you are able to breathe on your own, so your throat may feel a little sore. Your nurse in the PACU cares for you as you wake up. He or she checks your breathing, blood pressure, and oxygen level. Your nurse notes how awake you are and asks you questions about how you feel. Be sure to tell your nurse if you have pain, feel cold, or feel like you want to throw up. If you would like some ice chips to suck on, let your nurse know. You may hear beeps, alarms, and voices. This is normal. Please ask your nurse if you have any questions or concerns.
What can I expect when I go to B4/5?
Once you are ready to leave the PACU, you are taken to the Cardiothoracic Surgery Unit on B4/5. This nursing unit is called a universal bed unit. This means that every room can be an intensive care (ICU), intermediate care (IMC), or general care (GC) room. So, you stay in one room for all stages of care. This includes ICU care to discharge. The care and equipment change in your room to meet your needs. Patients often need IMC care for the rest of the day and night after they come from the PACU. For the rest of the time they are in the hospital, they often need GC care.
When you first arrive on B4/5, you have IV lines, drains, and monitors. Your family and friends may visit once you are settled in your room and have had some time to recover. This may take 1-2 hours. A staff member will tell your family and friends when they are able to come into your room. Visitors are asked to use the doorway near the D elevators to come into B4/5. The doorway near the B elevator is for staff use.
What can I expect during my recovery in the hospital?
As you become more stable, many of your IV lines and monitors are removed. As your condition improves, your nurses watch you closely but they aren't at your beside as often. They check on you every hour and when you need them. These are signs that you are doing well.
Most patients who have lung surgery need IMC care for 24 hours or less. Those patients who have a lobectomy or wedge resection stay about 1-3 days in the hospital while those who have a pneumonectomy stay about 5-7 days.
Rest is important for good healing. At the same time, getting up and walking helps to speed recovery. Most likely, your goal for the day of surgery will be to sit in a chair and go for 1 walk. After that, your goal for each day will be to sit in a chair for most of the day and walk 4 times. You may be surprised how much better you feel each day.
Your nurses will ask you to breathe deeply, cough, and use a breathing tool (incentive spirometer). Good breathing helps prevent pneumonia.
To cough and deep breathe
1. Place a pillow over your chest to reduce the pain and support your chest while coughing.
2. Breathe in deeply and slowly through your nose. Hold it.
3. Exhale slowly through the mouth.
4. Repeat twice more.
5. Breathe in again; hold it, and then cough.
To use the incentive spirometer
1. Exhale and place your lips tightly around the mouthpiece.
2. Take a deep breath. Slowly raise the Flow Rate Guide between the arrows.
3. Hold the deep breath. Continue to inhale, keeping the guide as high as you can for as long as you can, or as directed by your nurse or respiratory therapist.
4. Exhale and relax.
5. Repeat 10 times each hour while you are awake.
How much pain will I have?
After your surgery, you will have pain in your incision area and feel sore all over your body. Some patients have more pain in their shoulders and back due to the chest tubes and their position during surgery. Your doctor and nurses will work with you to achieve good pain control. Good pain control helps you to:
1. Feel better.
2. Heal faster.
3. Take deep breaths.
4. Start walking and get stronger faster.
5. Leave the hospital sooner.
6. Have better results and avoid problems.
Drug and non-drug treatments can help prevent and control pain. Don't worry about getting "hooked" or "addicted" to pain medicines. Studies show that this is very rare unless you already have this problem. Please ask if you have questions or concerns.
For best results:
1. Talk with your doctors and nurses about the choices you have. At first, you'll receive pain medicine in your IV. You may have a patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pump after your surgery. PCA pumps may be used with IVs to give pain medicine. By pressing a button, you have some control over the amount of pain medicine you get. Once you start eating and drinking, you will be able to take pain pills.
2. Ask for pain medicine when pain first begins. Do not wait until your pain is severe. This limits the effectiveness of the medicine. Pain pills take 20-30 minutes to work.
3. The nurses will ask if the medicine is helping your pain. You will be asked to rate your pain using this scale.
0-10 Number Pain Scale
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
No Mild Moderate Severe Worst
Pain Pain
4. The goal should be a level that allows you to deep breathe, eat, walk, and sleep. The doctors and nurses need you to rate your pain so they know how well your pain medicine is working.
5. Tell the doctors and nurses about pain that will not go away. Do not worry about being a "bother." Pain can sometimes be a sign of problems.
Pain medicine may cause you to become drowsy, dizzy, or lightheaded. Narcotic pain medicine can cause constipation. Tell your doctors and nurses if you are having any of these problems.
While you are in the hospital and taking narcotic pain medicine, these are things you may do to prevent constipation:
- Drink plenty of liquids. Eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of fluid each day will help keep your stools soft. Warm liquids often help your bowels to move. Have a warm drink about half an hour before your planned time for a bowel movement.
- Be as active as you can. Sit in a chair for all meals. Walk with help at least four times each day.
- Eat foods that have helped prevent constipation in the past.
- Try to set aside time for sitting on the toilet at the same time each day, if you can. The best time is after a meal.
- If your doctor prescribes a stool softener, take it as needed.
- Aim for a bowel movement every second or third day rather than every day.
- Do not stop taking your pain medicine because of constipation. Talk with your doctor or nurse if you are concerned.
How about activity after surgery?
It is best to be active soon after surgery. Being active helps prevent pneumonia and blood clots. It also helps get your strength back quicker.
The day after surgery you will sit in a chair for all meals and walk in the halls with the help of your nurse. You will need to walk at least four times each day. You should be able to walk a little farther each day.
Map to First Day Surgery Unit

Create Your Own Museum: What Dinosaurs Would You Like to See on Display?
I love visiting the fossil halls of natural history museums, but I have to admit that I sometimes yearn to see new specimens on display. Tyrannosaurus, Apatosaurus, Triceratops, Allosaurus, Edmontosaurus—their skeletons remains as impressive as ever, but given all the new dinosaur species discovered during the past century, it would be refreshing to see some new, lesser-known dinosaurs on display.
If I had free reign to set up a dinosaur hall as I saw fit, for example, I would want to create an exhibit all about the tyrannosauroid dinosaurs. It used to be that we knew only the last and the biggest of the tyrant dinosaurs, but during the past decade our knowledge of tyrannosauroids and their evolution has greatly expanded. Among others, I would love to see tyrannosauroids like Dilong, Appalachiosaurus and Raptorex on display next to their well-known relatives like Gorgosaurus and Tyrannosaurus to illustrate how these predators evolved.
The same could be done with sauropods. We're all familiar with the classic sauropods such as Diplodocus and Camarasaurus, but what about some of the really bizarre sauropods few people know about? By presenting oddballs like the hoover-mouthed Nigersaurus, the sail-necked Amargasaurus and the armored Saltasaurus next to the classic forms, museum visitors could gain a fuller appreciation for sauropod diversity.
What about you? If you could design a museum dinosaur hall, what would you put in it?

If you ever have the chance, go to the Sauriermuseum in Aathal, Switzerland. I know it's across the pond but seriously, best dinosaur museum ever.
http://carbontocarnivore.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/sauriermuseum-aathal/ -
I'd love to see a really thorough exhibit dedicated to just about any group, but man, I'd especially love one on the therizinosaurs. I've never been able to see one in person.
Coincidentally, this week is Field Museum week at Love in the Time of Chasmosaurs, and today's post is on the Field's Genius Dinosaur Hall. Nice timing.
That's a tough question, but at least you narrowed it down to "dinosaur hall". That being the case, aside from an expanded diversity of forms from well known groups as you've described in the post, I think I'd really like to see more basal forms of known groups as well.
Additionally, a lot of museums just display specimens intermingled with other specimens from different times and of different relations. I'd like to design a hall that not only walks you through the Mesozoic in a linear fashion, but that shows you the evolution of dinosaur clades over time. A giant cladogram superimposed over the geologic time scale, with as many taxa represented as possible.
Well, i talk about that on my blog a lot (considering i actually want to start my own museum) but the halls i think of more often pertain to the fossil mammals. But as far as dinosaurs go, i'd love to have an exhibit on African dinosaurs. It would feature Spinosaurus (ever since i saw that that skeleton on flickr), Jobaria, Ouranosaurus, Afrovenator, and the above mentioned Nigersaurus.
I'd also like to do an exhibit comparing early and late creatceous dinosaurs with specimens from Montana, Utah, and Oklahoma.
I love the idea of an exhibit devoted to tyrannosaurs. Also, David beat me to my own idea. I would like an exhibit that showcases the full diversity of the Dinosauria. I would pick some of the lesser known species to represent the various groups of dinosaur. I would also like to include some of the avian forms, particularly Hesperornis, which is my favorite prehistoric bird.
@ David and Ian:
The AMNH already does something similar to your ideas, having the halls laid out as a cladogram. And they do include Hesperornis (as well as some Cenozoic birds and taxidermied gulls) in the maniraptor section (under a gigantic banner reading "birds are dinosaurs"!).Would be nice to showcase some more obscure species though besides the old standbys. I'd personally like to see an exhibit arranged by geologic formation, so you could see more clearly which dinosaurs lived alongside which others.
I'd like to see some non-dinosaurian dinosaurmorphs like Silesaurus and Marasuchus. I don't think the dinosaurs' ancestors are very well known to the public, if at all.
the AMNH is a wonderful museum, and I love the layout more than any other I've been to for that very reason. I like your idea of arranging by formation as well. The closest I've seen to that is at the Smithsonian NMNH, where the Morrison Formation critters are all center stage. But I think that's more out of necessity (they have a lot of Morrison material) then purposeless planning.

Spain's Juan Mata, left, and teammate Fernando Torres celebrate the fourth goal during the Euro 2012 final (AP Photo/Matthias Schrader)
Sunday, July 1, 2012
Fernando Torres won the award
Chelsea star Fernando Torres pipped Manchester City ace Mario Balotelli the Euro 2012 golden boot after scoring in the final as well as providing an assist for team-mate Juan Mata.
The striker scored three goals in the tournament, along with Balotelli and Mario Gomez but, in providing the fourth goal for Mata it gave him the personal honour.
The Blues striker had only scored 12 goals for the west Londoners in 67 games and the award could mean a new Fernando Torres could grace Stamford Bridge next season.

by Elisabeth Parker For most of my life, my standard over-layer has been the classic, grungy, waffle-knit long-sleeve t-shirt. In my attempts to recreate this garment in a handknit, I've met, tried and rejected a veritable ton of "waffle" stitch patterns, usually created using triangles of knit and purl stitches arranged artfully, or some combination of ribbing and garter stitch. Generally, these stitches look great and waffle-y, especially on small needles, but I was unable to find the hand-knitting equivalent to my favorite mass-produced stitch pattern on a larger scale!
Mortar Cowl: Knitty Deep Fall 2011
Note: To make this pattern easier to understand, the predominantly yellow (MC) side will be called the RS, and the predominantly black (CC) side will be called the WS. CO 48 stitches using CC. I recommend using a cable cast on, but a tubular cast on is also nice for double knitting. Now it's time to add the second color, and work the first row. You will have to get used to holding both yarns at once. Throughout, you carry both colors forward or back between the needles before each stitch, though you are only knitting or purling with one color at a time.

How to solve impossible problems: Daniel Russell's awesome Google search techniques
Daniel Russell stood in front of a crowd of investigative journalists in Boston last week and showed us this picture of a random skyscraper in an unknown city: Russell posed a riddle: What's the phone number of the office where this picture was snapped?Photography Kick-Start Guide: Adjusting Your Camera's Settings for the Photo You Want
This entry is part 4 of 10 in the Exposure Session - Show All « Previous Next » Every two weeks, we revisit some of our reader favorite posts from throughout the history of Phototuts+. This tutorial was first published in September of 2009. Cameras vary in terms of functions offered.
How To Color Correct a Photo Super Photo Magic School
Color is so big for us photographers. Color and light are our primary mediums in creating our picture. So, when a picture is off in color tones, for example too dark or yellow/pinkish, it can really affect how we view the photograph overall. There are a few simple steps in adjusting the color of your photos in Photoshop. Here are the start and finish results, before and after color correction, side by side.
How to Add a Snooze Button to Gmail, No Extensions Required
Whether you're a practitioner of inbox zero or not, we all occasionally receive emails we're not ready to act on just yet—emails we'd rather defer to tomorrow, or even next week. Here's how to create a smart snooze button in Gmail, no extensions required, using Google's new-ish Apps Script tool. Note: Google's Corey Goldfeder posted this method on the Google Apps Developer blog and in the video above. This post is simply a more basic version of his guide for people (like me) who previously have no experience with Google Apps Script.
Just because you can usually get a similar effect in Photoshop doesn't mean the end result will be as good as using Illustrator (depending on the project). If you are like me (and I will bet most of you are) you will go ahead and use PS because you know it much better even though the final project will not be as good or functional as it could be. Well it's time to buck up and get this learning curve completely out of the way so you make the right choice next time. Below are some sweet Illustrator tuts that will leave you in vector heaven once your done.

Carlton Cuse has officially announced the season six premiere date via Twitter! Lost returns on Tuesday, February 2nd at 9pm! And Carlton also revealed that Rebecca Mader aka Charlotte is back!
I know, I know, you saw this way back in July when we feverishly snapped shots during the San Diego Comic-Con Lost panel. But now it's official which means we can start taking this thing apart! Surely the entire course of the sixth and final seaon can be mapped out by astute observation of this image. Well, maybe not but our pals and fellow Lost obsessives over at TV Over Mind have done a great job of examining the first official piece of promo art for clues as to what's ahead. Why are dead folks like Michael and Libby (who allegedly aren't returning) featured in the foreground (or at all in Libby's case) while season six shoe-in Claire is more towards the back? Also of note, all the major Oceanic survivors are present and accounted for....except Walt! I'm sure there's even more to be gleaned from closer examination! Head to TV Over Mind for a look at the hi-res version and let the theorizing commence!

NASCAR: Did David Ragan Make a Big Mistake Going for the No. 22 Penske Ride?
Jerry Markland/Getty Images
With good rides in NASCAR getting fewer and fewer, a driver has to secure his job as soon as possible. David Ragan appears to have missed his chance.
Ragan ended his 2011 season losing his ride in the No. 6 Ford of Roush Fenway Racing. UPS left the team to sponsor Carl Edwards as an associate sponsor.
Even with Ragan almost winning the Daytona 500 and winning the Coke-Zero 400 in Daytona, Ragan could not get a sponsor to keep his job with RFR.
He then shopped around and had the chance to take the seat of the No. 51 Chevy of Phoenix Racing. That would have given Ragan the chance to be in good equipment, driving a Hendrick car.
But then Ragan got greedy when Kurt Busch left the No. 22 Penske car.
Ragan had a ride seemingly locked up with Phoenix Racing, but he risked it to go after the Penske ride.
And it burned him, badly.
Ragan lost out to A.J. Allmendinger for the Penske ride, and things got worse when he lost his original deal with Phoenix Racing.
Phoenix Racing owner James Finch went and signed Kurt Busch, a former champion who can take his team to the next level.
Ragan's stock appeared to have gone down even more when he could not get the No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports ride. He should have had a good chance since RPM gets their equipment from Roush.
Will David Ragan ever get a full-time ride for a quality team in the Sprint Cup Series again?
RPM is getting ready to announce a deal with Nationwide Series driver Aric Almirola.
Now, Ragan is battling with Cole Whitt (from the Camping World Truck Series) for Almirola's old car, the No. 88 Chevy of JR Motorsports, in the Nationwide Series.
I firmly believe David Ragan got too greedy thinking he could get the No. 22 ride. He had the No. 51 car locked up, ready to sign a contract, and he didn't do it. It cost him his chance to stay in the Sprint Cup Series.
Now he's fighting for a Nationwide Series ride. If he can get the ride with JR Motorsports, it could be good for him.
I'm not sure he will get many chances in the Sprint Cup Series again unless he wins a good amount of races in 2012, and maybe even the Nationwide Series title.
I just don't understand why he didn't sign with Phoenix Racing and drive good equipment.
Now he is paying the price, and who knows if he can make it back to the Sprint Cup.

Ten Amalgamated Creatures That Wreaked Havoc in Movies
By Stew Miller (@StewWriter) on
First of all, let's discuss what the word 'amalgamated' means, shall we? In fiction in literally means, "the concept of creating an element in a work of fiction by combining existing things." That, of course, is an amalgamation, which is just the noun form of the word. Learning! It's fun. Anyway, liberties have of course been taken with the word over the years, as it has gone from a chemical term to a word that just more or less describes combining two common things into one. Now, in these ten cases, the one half of the combo that each has in common is something either bipedal, or straight up human. And each one of these critters has, in its own way, wreaked havoc on its surroundings in one way or another. So let's check them out, shall we?
- Barf the Mog
In the Star Wars parody, Space Balls, Barf the Mog was the Chewbacca to the Han/Luke-ish Lone Star. He was pretty benevolent, and a little on the inane side, but definitely lovable and played to oafish perfection by the late John Candy. But what was his havoc-wreaking problem? Well, besides being a genuine klutz and an affable goof, he was always whacking Lone Star in the face with his presumably filthy tail. He was, though, half-man half-dog, and his own best friend.
- Spider-Man
Peter Parker is one of very few superheroes who aren't active lycanthropes that was actually bitten by the 'bug' that gave him his powers. And it's this reason why he is considered an amalgam of a spider and a human. Sure, he has single-handedly saved New York from a slew of villains bent on its destruction, but boy oh boy has he caused some serious damage, too. Much like many of his superhero brethren, in fact; leaving the city in shambles with broken buildings and trashed vehicles. Let's face it, hero or not, his path of destruction is incredibly wide.
- Peter Pettigrew
Just because you're a shape-shifting magician who somehow got missed in a clear last-minute plot-changing device, doesn't mean you aren't an amalgam of an animal and a man. In this case, Peter Pettigrew was in rat form through a few Harry Potter books (and films) and under the care of Ron Weasley before it became not only apparent, but also a huge WTF moment, when it was discovered that Scabbers was actually a dude hanging out and spying on Harry. I don't know, I just have this feeling that this rewrite was conjured as Rowling was realizing that she'd hit a dead end. Either way, Timothy Spall played the animagus to a filthy 'T' and reminded us all to never trust anyone... especially vermin.
- Swamp Thing
Back in 1982, one of the first DC Comics adaptations was rolled out and it was, well, pretty darn good. The film was Swamp Thing, and it follows the Wes Craven directed exploits of the veggie-human and his attempted vindication of those who caused his transformation in the first place. At the end, when Thing does battle with a mutated form of the evil scientist who kick-started his initial amalgamation of man and bog, the ferns really fly and it quickly becomes one of the more epic battles between two monsters. Did I mention this movie also stars Adrienne Barbeau's breasts? Well, it does.
- The Cowardly Lion
Okay, sure, I'll admit that Oz is literally riddled with half-human/half-something else critters. But it was the cowardly lion that truly captured the amalgamation and played it to top form. And boy did this goofy bastard wreak his own special brand of havoc. First, he scares the piss out of the trio of the Tin Man, the Scarecrow and Dorothy, and then he messes up the palace in Emerald City just so he can perform his show tune, and finally he smashes through a perfectly good castle window. Well, for a oafish and lovable lout, at least he had a hand in dissolving the Wicked Witch.
- The Planet of the Apes
At some point -- as we're led to believe in Rise of the Planet of the Apes -- the Earth is going to be overrun by simian soldiers who want nothing more than to rid it of us pesky humans. Of course once one sees the original saga of The Planet of the Apes, one can't help but worry just a little bit that this crazy occurrence just might come true. Even though Charlton Heston doesn't realize that he's on a futuristic version of his own planet until the Rod Serling-penned finale, at that point the apes do little more than torture him. Not just advanced apes, but amalgamated ape-humans.
- Werewolves
Werewolves are the classic amalgamated creatures: part man and part wolf. I used this broad singularity because they come in so many shapes, sizes, and styles each of which is just a shade different from the last and always full of havoc-wreaking nastiness. From the Lon Chaney Wolfman to the awesome 'dog-like' werewolves from Dog Soldiers, there is scarcely one variety that doesn't cause some kind of irreversible damage to its surroundings and the populous. Well, aside from Fang Face, but cartoons are a completely different story.
- Seth Brundle
If you want to become an amalgamated creature without getting bitten (see Spider-Man and most werewolves), then scientific experimentation is the way to go. And this fact was learned the hard way by struggling geneticist Seth Brundle in The Fly. All he wanted to do was to invent some pods that transfer matter from one spot to another, but instead -- thanks to an incredibly stupid and inconsiderate fly -- he transferred his matter with a bug's matter and became a hideous fly amalgam! Hideous! Especially when he wreaked vomitous havoc on that one dude's arm... gak.
- The Kowakian Monkey Lizard
Oh look, it's our first non-human amalgamation! What a treat! In this case, it's an alien where rules are useless and everything can be anything, so let's just take this with an extra big grain of salt and a huge suspension of disbelief. So, the Kowakian Monkey Lizard was the little critter that sat up around Jabba the Hutt's head in Return of the Jedi and pretty much just cackled at everyone and everything. His actual name was Salacious Crumb and his claim to devious fame was the fact that he was responsible for picking out C3-P0's eye just before R2-D2 zapped him. He presumably died when the desert skiff exploded. He was an ass.
- The Sumatran Rat Monkey
If you've never seen Peter Jackson's horror masterpiece Dead Alive (aka Braindead), then drop everything you're doing and do so (after reading this). It is a gore fest with more blood than literally any other movie. Not only is it fun and filthy, it's just goofy. Basically, the whole nonsense begins when a Sumatran Rat Monkey (a hybrid that "according to legend" resulted from the rape of tree monkeys on Skull Island by plague rats) bites a woman and is subsequently smashed. It turns poor Lionel Cosgrove's mom into a raving zombie who, in turn, infects a ton of other people. All because of some wacky amalgamated rat thing. Those things are never good.

John Robertson: The Dark Room
Try it at home, on Youtube. The Dark Room nods to adventure games of the eighties, and is just as irritating. Robertson, wearing a headpiece composed of baby Duracell torches and a megadive controller, leads us through an interactive gig. We're trying to find our way out of a dark room…
It's a brilliant premise to bring a retro pastime to the stage, and the clunky on-screen graphics fit right in. There are enthusiastic factions in the audience, crowing for the next go as the rest look on, and the overall aim is to have a room full of like-minded people working in unison to a successful conclusion. But this gets a little staid, as each finds a similar route to the pixelated 'game over' screen.
Robertson hosts the show well, taking on a persona like a slimline Brian Blessed. Bellowing each option and mocking answers, he does draw some laughs. However, the best lines are delivered out of character, as he describes playing adventure games growing up, the frustration it's caused abroad, and the hate mail he's received since the game's inception. Alas, these can't be developed as the time is instead freed for another plucky contestant to take his turn in the infernal room.

Dragons are creatures with nearly unlimited life spans. They can survive for long periods of time, and no one has found a dragon that has died of old age. Adolescence is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling's wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. Once they hit adolescence, hatchlings change quickly, maturing to their full forms in only 2 years.
Dragons don't communicate with each other verbally, but they will growl to scare off predators and frighten prey. Young dragons will emit an extremely high-pitched squeal when they are frightened. To communicate, they use telepathy with each other and to speak to other creatures.
Daydream dragons are the hosts of daydreams and fantasies. They spend the majority of their time sitting on clouds, dropping daydreams down into the minds of people passing by. Humans who live near daydream dragons must be especially careful not to let their thoughts wander, or they could end up spending hours or even days in a trance-like waking dream state.
Day Dreaming 0 is a very loving and caring dragon. She adores her mate Mister devil and has had three adults and one egg so far. When she gets time she usually sits on a cloud and just lay there daydream. Other dragons sometimes get annoyed with her with her being lazy and just relaxing but they don't stop her.

Neighbours file complaint against Susan Boyle for "singing too loudly"Susan Boyle's neighbours have filed a complaint with their local council because the star has reportedly been singing too loudly. The Sun reports that Teresa Miller and fiancé Paul Keaveney have told council officials that they are being kept awake by Boyle singing in the living room of her house in Blackburn, West Lothian. Miller said that the noise is "unbearable" as Boyle allegedly tears through classic hits. She said: "It is so loud you can't hear the telly. It's unbearable. It'll be on first thing in the morning or late at night and it's absolutely blaring." She continued: "She'll put one song on repeat and it goes on for hours. I don't know if she's got a karaoke machine or what but it's so loud. You wouldn't get Bono from U2 standing in his house singing his songs at the top of his voice. Maybe she's practising for her next track or the next time she's going to see Simon Cowell but it's unbelievable."

These are outstanding gifts that will make life at the hospital more comfortable for children and their families. Sharon McLeod, Child Life Director, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center
Rent-A-Center's (NASDAQ: RCII) fourth gift in its statewide community initiative entitled Random Acts of Caring will brighten the lives of patients at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.
The company is donating 12 Sony laptops to ensure patients in the expanded Blood and Marrow Transplantation unit and their families can access the Internet or watch DVDs. The children can use the laptops to connect with their schools and keep up with school work as well.
The company is also providing two digital cameras that will be used throughout the medical center by child life specialists to create educational photo books for various procedures, scrapbooks with patients about their stay, and legacy materials as part of the grief and bereavement process. Additionally they will be used to assist patients with photos to enhance their "care pages" and capture precious moments for families.
A 42" inch HDTV will be used at the medical center's College Hill campus common area to help increase child life activities. It will also be used to support movie nights for patients and their families.
"These are outstanding gifts that will make life at the hospital more comfortable for children and their families. We are very grateful for Rent-A-Center's Random Acts of Caring program and that the Division of Child Life at Cincinnati Children's was selected as the May recipient," said Sharon McLeod, Child Life Director.

Event Details
The Cincy part of the Indy CM Crew is going to host a gathering of CMmers for the Greater Cincinnati's Annual Cross the Bridge for Life walk. Hundreds of prolifers will gather Sunday June 2 in Newport, KY at the World Peace Bell to walk across the Purple People Bridge (yes, that is it's name!) in prayerful support of all life. We'd like to invite all of you to join us in this fun day! We will gather at The Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption in Covington, KY for 10:00 am Mass with Bishop Foys. Let's meet no later than 9:30 am in the parking lot next to the cathedral. After Mass we will grab a quick bite to eat, and then join everyone at the Peace Bell for the festivities, which begin at 1:30. There will be prayer, guest speakers, music and song, and free t-shirts. Get there early! Parking and t-shirts become scarce quickly! The walk begins at 3:00. It's not long or difficult, but it is highly public as we traverse the Ohio River, cross into Cincinnati and come back. We will be done well before 4:00. Cincinnati JTM hamburgers are being served afterwards free to all walkers. After the event is over our group will mostly like enjoy a famous Graeters' Icecream at a nearby parlor. Then we will decide what we do from there. Perhaps we will just kick back at a local park, take in some sites at Newport along the Levee or see a movie. It all depends on the mood, weather, and what crops up. If anyone wants to come from out of town and make a weekend of it, let me know. We can make that happen. There are reasonably priced hotels very near me, and I will be glad to play hostess and show you around town. Perhaps Saturday would be a good day to take in the Cincinnati Zoo. (The Reds are out of town-- darn!) Check out the official web page for the walk. I do hope you will join me and some of the Indy CM Crew for this fun and uplifting day! We've done this in the past and had a great time as friends. This year we'd like to see our group expand. Don't hesitate to ask questions. Cross The Bridge For LifeComments

We had twenty people join us for dinner Saturday night and 18 for the walk on Sunday (the groups had a big overlap but there were people who could not attend the two events.) There were probably about 4000 at the bridge walk in total. It WAS a great event! Like Rob said, it was great to do something together that was profoundly Catholic in expression and to stand up for Life! Thank you everyone for attending! I'm looking forward to next year. (I think they've wrangled me to be on the planning committee for the whole event.) :)

The event was FANTASTIC!!! I thoroughly enjoyed a beautiful day with many CM friends (those I've just met and those I've been blessed to know for years) to show our support for our LIFE MORALS :) Blessings to all those who attended and those who couldn't join us this time.

I plan to drive over Sat. afternoon and would be happy to join the group for dinner and whatever you are planning.

Hello friends!! I am really excited about seeing you next weekend! Unless you and I have arranged otherwise, let's meet by 9:30 am on Sunday at the cathedral for Mass. (Unfortunately, Bishop Foys is not schedule to have Mass but it will still be absolutely beautiful.) meeting this early will give people time to meet, see the cathedral, and get good seats together. (I will get there even earlier.) Please look for the balloons in the parking lot-- they will identify our group.
If you would like details about where a large group of CM friends are eating on Saturday night, email me. We would love to have you join us!!
As always, keep me updated on your plans.

At Go Nice our aim to help you the renter have a great holiday and to do whatever we can to help you enjoy staying and holidaying in Nice and surrounding areas our range of properties offer many options and prices from studios, large apartments through to penthouses and villas.
Our commitment to supplying quality accommodation combined with personal and professional service is the core to our business philosophy and the properties that we have available are of the highest standard and set-up to cater for the holiday rental customers.
We have personally inspected all our properties – and work with the owners to take them to a level of presentation and equipment to satisfy the sophisticated traveler – they will have been professionally cleaned prior to any arrival – and supplied with quality linens and towels.
We realize that your holiday is one of the most important and pleasurable times of the year and we aim to assist with supplying you with great accommodation and service to make sure you have the holiday you deserve. We have an office in central Nice 11bis rue du Congres, Nice and many guests come by to visit – we would be delighted to see you in the future months.
I have lived and worked in Nice since summer 1999 – previously working in London in for Robert Bosch Ltd for 10 years in corporate sales and prior to that in estate management in West London. After working full-time and studying for a part-time degree in Business Administration (2:1) my brain had enough and followed by the rest of me I decided I wanted a lifestyle change and headed of to go Skiing in Grenoble (in French alps) and see where my Ski's took me – after 3 months it was a train that took me to Nice. Arriving on 1st June 1999 and sitting on the Promenade beer in hand enjoying the sunshine and sights I decided to make Nice my home. I decided that if going to stay here long term I was going to do things right – so I gained the Carte Proffesionelle (the pre-requirement for any legal sales or rental agency) and set up a French registered property rental and sales company. I am based in office in Nice and often out and about seeing owners and renters and trying to keep things smoothly moving along. 10 years down the line from moving to Nice I love Nice, the promenade, the light, the food (amongst other things) even more and gain great pleasure from my work and helping people equally enjoy Nice and its surrounds.
Merilyn joined Go Nice in April 2008 – previously working many years in hospitality industry and more recently the yachting world working on some of the super mega yachts – having gained her degree in Hotel and restaurant Management originally from Philippines – Merilyn decided to move to Hong Kong working in tourism – this led her to the yachting industry and her husband and 3 lovely children – moving to Nice 10 years ago she continued to work in the pressurized and demanding environment of the mega yachts - As you can imagine the skills needed to service these very demanding clients are extremely high and Merilyn has brought these skills in abundance to my company – extremely organized and conscientious with good humour and easy smile but the ability to focus exactly on job in hand - Merilyn manages all the daily emails/bookings and liaison with renting clients.
Jack has been working with me for 3 years – Conscientious and hardworking Jack is from Poland he moved to Nice with his wife Agnes and now has a beautiful daughter Vanessa – being Polish Jack is a man of many talents (including fluent English of course) – from small jobs to big jobs Jack lay his hand to solve any issue – setting up his company 2 year ago – Jack works independently from me – however we work closely together in terms of solving issues for owners and renters alike – whether the key is stuck in the door or it is a complete refurbishment of an apartment – Jack is around and willing to help – when a problem arises – it is always a case of Just call Jack!
Pat has been around a bit he is 83 years young and seen a few things - being an accountant, volunteer in Africa and working for UN…amongst things. As for his company role not quite sure how I can summarize what he does – but think we will go with Public Relations Manager for both Go Nice and Nice itself - he certainly he enjoys Nice and can often be seen walking the Promenade and watching the world go by - and meeting the various guests that pop into the office giving recommendations of places to visit and places to eat…..and of course where to go for afternoon tea. In terms of work he offers words of guidance and wisdom that you gain through age and experience and has certainly helped me in my philosophy to my work and attitude to clients – being that the most important things is treat people with respect help them enjoy themselves and their holiday and work with a smile on your face and of course enjoy life!. Pat shares his time between Nice and London.
At Go-Nice we are dedicated to offering you a service you deserve and allowing you maximum enjoyment of your holiday rental accommodation.
A big welcome to Nice and warmest regards
Paul, Merilyn, Jack and Pat

Objective: presenting the workup and management of a pregnant woman who presented Ogilvie's syndrome as a complication of an obstetric hysterectomy and describing the epidemiology, physiopathology and clinical findings following gynecobstetric procedure and treatment of this pathology by means of a literature review. Case report: the case of a 28-year-old woman is presented; the patient presented uterine atony following normal vaginal delivery after 38 weeks' pregnancy. A subtotal abdominal hysterectomy was made due to lack of improvement with medical management. The patient presented fever, intolerance to oral route, tachycardia, distended and hypertympanic abdomen, pain in response to surface and deep palpation of the right hemi-abdomen and decreased peristalsis during postoperative period. The abdominal radiograph revealed obstruction of the small intestine; exploratory laparotomy was thus carried out, showing foetal peritonitis and perforation of the colon at the ileocecal valve without evidence of mechanical obstruction. Discussion: Ogilvie's syndrome is characterised by massive and progressive dilatation of the colon in the absence of small bowel obstruction. The syndrome mainly develops in hospitalised patients suffering from severe medical conditions; nonetheless, it also occurs after gynecobstetric procedures. Because this syndrome is associated with high rates of morbidity andmortality,thegynecobstetricianmustrecognise this syndrome as being a possible complication of gynecobstetric procedure.
Keywords : Ogilvie's syndrome; acute colonic pseudo-obstruction; complication; hysterectomy; caesarean section.
