Today there are perhaps seventy Jewish families residing in all of Suriname. Nevertheless, some Jewish influence is still noticeable in the country. For instance, there are some who bear Jewish-sounding family names such as Eliazer and Emanuels. There are street names such as Jodenbreestraat Street and Sivaplein Square that are of Jewish origin. Sadly, these faint echoes are all that is left of what was once a dynamic, vibrant Jewish community.

Last month's column sketched the myriad of social programs in which the Orthodox American communal worker and leader Adolphus S. Solomons (1826-1910) was involved. Adolphus married Rachel Seixas Phillips (1828-1881), a descendant of colonial patriot families and together they had eight daughters and a son.
There are many observant Jews who contributed much to secular and Jewish life in America and yet have, unfortunately, been essentially forgotten. One such man is Adolphus Simson Solomons (1826-1910).
Cholera was officially recognized to be of epidemic proportions in New York City on June 26, 1832. The epidemic was at its peak in July and 3,515 out of a population of about 250,000 died. (The equivalent death toll in today's city of eight million would exceed 100,000.) Sadly, in 1832 there were no effective treatments available for those who contracted this disease.
As this is our third column on the Reverend Dr. Henry Pereira Mendes, we'll begin with a summary of his life.
In last month's column we traced the early career of Reverend Dr. Henry (Chaim) Pereira Mendes and described his extraordinary service to Congregation Shearith Israel in New York where he served as hazan (chazzan) and minister from 1877 to 1923 and then as minister emeritus from 1924 until his passing in 1937.
Beginning around 1840 the Reform movement began asserting itself as a major force in American Judaism. Indeed, with the rising tide of Reform during the nineteenth century it looked as if Orthodox Judaism might disappear. Many synagogues that had been founded by observant Jews and had remained for years true to halacha found their memberships increasingly calling for the institution of reforms and the abandonment of commitment to authentic Judaism.
Last month we sketched the life of Manuel Josephson (1729-1796), who immigrated to New York in the 1740s. Manuel was one of the few learned Jews residing in America in the 18th century. His talents were recognized by Congregation Shearith Israel, and he served on the synagogue's bet din for several years and as its parnas (president) in 1762. He earned his living as a merchant.
The overwhelming majority of Jews who came to America before the Revolutionary War did not have an extensive Jewish education. One exception was Manuel Josephson (1729-1796), who was born and educated in Germany. His extensive knowledge of Judaism qualified him to serve on the beis din of Congregation Shearith Israel in New York.

Eiruvin 98a-b – Placing objects on a ledge on Shabbat
An extension that protrudes under a window is referred to by the Mishnah on our daf (page) as a ziz. (A ziz and a gezuztra are similar projections from a window. According to the Geonim, a ziz has supports beneath it, while a gezuztra is, in effect, a balcony, with walls that extend from the building above it). The Mishnah teaches that a person can place objects on this ziz, or take things from the ziz into the house on Shabbat. The Gemara limits this rule in a number of ways. For example, according to the Gemara, the protrusion must be above ten tefahim (handbreadths) from the ground. As we have learned before, the rules of reshut ha-rabim – of the public domain – only extend up until ten tefahim. Above that is a makom petur – a "free space" that is neither public nor private. If it is larger than four tefahim square, then it becomes a reshut ha-yahid (private domain) that extends from the house.
If you say that the ledge protrudes into a public domain, one should be prohibited to place an object on it, as we should be concerned lest the object fall and he will forget and come to bring it in from the public domain to a private domain. Rather, it must be that the ledge protrudes into a private domain; but if so, it is obvious that it is permitted to place objects on it and to remove them.
Abaye said: Actually, the mishna is dealing with a case where it protrudes into a public domain, and what is the meaning of that which it teaches: One may place objects upon it? This refers to fragile utensils, which would break instantly if they fell. Consequently, there is no concern that one might then bring them in from the public domain to the private domain.
Rashi explains that if such items as plates or cups made of glass or earthenware fall down, they will break, so there is no concern that they will be carried back into the house.
Rabbenu Yehonatan gives another explanation for permitting breakable utensils to be placed on the ziz. He argues that people will be particularly careful with their breakable items and will make sure that they do not fall to the ground. Since they are so careful, the likelihood that someone will come to carry them becomes less of a concern.
Eiruvin 99a-b – When spitting is punishable by death
According to the Mishnah (98b) a person should not stand in a reshut ha-yahid (a private domain) and spit into a reshut ha-rabim (a public domain), or in a reshut ha-rabim and spit into a reshut ha-yahid, as you are transferring your saliva from one domain to another. Rabbi Yehuda teaches that even walking four cubits in the public domain with a collection of saliva in your mouth would be forbidden.
Rav Yosef on our daf (page) comments that the rule in the Mishnah about spitting would be considered a Biblical transgression, requiring the bringing of a sin-offering. The Ritva points out that this actually depends on the position that one takes with regard to a case that is a melakha she-ain tzrikha le-gufa – when a forbidden act is done on Shabbat with an intent other than that usually associated with that act. Since in the case of spitting, it is most likely that the intent was to get rid of the spittle and not specifically to have it reach the other reshut, those opinions that rule that one is not liable for such an act would disagree with Rav Yosef in this case.
This unusual discussion about spitting offers an opportunity for Resh Lakish to teach that a student who spits in front of his teacher is deserving of death.
Reish Lakish said: One who expelled phlegm in front of his master has acted in a disrespectful manner and is liable for the punishment of death at the hand of Heaven, as it is stated: "All they who hate Me love death" (Proverbs, or Mishlei 8:36). Do not read it as: "They who hate [mesanai] Me"; rather, read it as: "Those who make themselves hateful [masniai] to Me," i.e., those who make themselves hateful by such a discharge.
This rule is brought in a number of places by the Gemara with regard to Torah scholars whose conduct or manner of dress brings about an embarrassment to the honor of the Torah. In our case, Resh Lakish teaches that those students whose behavior angers their teachers and causes them to hate them are deserving of death, since "the awe of your teacher should be equivalent to the awe of Heaven." Unlike the case in the Mishnah, however, Resh Lakish certainly does not mean that such a person would be put to death for his crime, rather that such an act is so severe as to be deserving of death b'yedei Shamayim – by the Hand of God.
Eiruvin 100a-b – Learning proper behavior from the animal kingdom
A well-known Talmudic homily appears on today's daf (page):
Rabbi Yohanan said: Even if the Torah had not been given, we would nonetheless have learned modesty from the cat, which covers its excrement, and that stealing is objectionable from the ant, which does not take grain from another ant, and forbidden relations from the dove, which is faithful to its partner, and proper relations from the rooster, which first appeases the hen and then mates with it.
As is often the case, this discussion evolved from the "stream-of-consciousness" flow of the Gemara's dialogue. It opened with Rami bar Abba quoting Rav Asi as forbidding people from walking on grass on Shabbat, based on the passage in Mishlei 19:2, "and he who hastens with his feet, sins." (The conclusion of the Gemara is that this is permissible, since we rule like Rabbi Shimon that something done unintentionally on Shabbat is permitted.) In the continuation of the Gemara, Rami bar Hama quotes Rav Asi, who interprets this passage metaphorically, as a reference to sexual relations between husband and wife. According to this reading, the passage teaches that a person cannot force his wife to engage "in a mitzvah" against her will. The Gemara's reference to sexual relations as a mitzvah indicates both the attitude of the Gemara that relations within the framework of marriage is a positive act, and yet it is forbidden for the husband to force his wife to participate, even if his intention is for a mitzvah.
From this, the Gemara launches into a discussion of appropriate relationships between husbands and wives in sexual matters, including the admonition to learn from the natural behaviors of the animal kingdom how to conduct oneself in such matters. From the rooster we learn the importance of mating rituals and how thoughtful, generous and loving words and acts should lead up to intimacy.
On a different level, the case of doves is instructive because we find animals that are monogamous. Once the male and female join up, they are loyal to one-another to the extent that, should one of them disappear, the other will not choose another partner for the duration of that season.
Eiruvin 101a-b – Locking a door on Shabbat
The Mishnah on our daf (page) is concerned with the possibility that securing a door by adding a bolt to it may be considered boneh – building – and forbidden by the Rabbis.
With regard to a bolt that secures a door in place and that has a thick knob [gelustera] at its end, a useful implement for a variety of purposes, the tannaim disagree whether the bolt has the status of a vessel, and one may therefore close the door with it, or whether it is considered a cross beam, which would mean that doing so is classified as building. Rabbi Eliezer prohibits its use, and Rabbi Yosei permits it.
The case discussed is a neger - a peg or bolt - that has on its end a gelustera - a thick, rounded knob that makes it into a keli - a utensil - that can possibly be used for a number of different purposes (e.g. as a pestle). Rabbi Eliezer says that it is still considered a simple board and we are concerned with boneh; Rabbi Yossi rules that, as a keli, it is independent of the house and clearly being used as a lock, which is permitted.
Rashi understands the case of the neger in the Mishnah to be one in which this bolt is placed such that the door is connected to the floor beneath the door. According to the Rambam, this neger is placed into rings that are on two side-by-side doors, and the doors are thereby secured. The Bartenura combines both of these explanations.
As explained above, according to Rashi, the gelustera is the ball at the end of the neger that makes it useful for other purposes, and therefore considered a keli. According to the Rambam, the gelustera is a square or round addition to the bolt which is put there to indicate that the neger is to be used as a lock on a regular basis and that it can no longer be used for building. Some explain that the gelustera described is on the thin end of the neger and that it is, in effect, what we would call a key.
Eiruvin 102a-b – Repairing a harp on Shabbat
There is a general principle that most of the Rabbinic ordinances prohibiting activities on Shabbat, lest they lead to something that is forbidden on a Biblical level, do not apply in the Temple. Several examples of this rule appear in the Mishnayot on our daf (page), which discuss replacing and securing doors, bandaging wounds and fixing musical instruments.
One may tie up on Shabbat a string [nima] that came loose from a harp used in the Temple, but not in the rest of the country. And tying the string to the harp for the first time is prohibited both here and there.
Stringing a harp for the first time would be forbidden even in the Mikdash (Temple), since it should have been done before Shabbat began. (See a picture of the Temple harp or lyre here.)
The Gemara quotes a baraita which rules that when a string breaks it cannot be tied in a knot, but only in a bow, a position more stringent than that of the Mishnah. The Gemara offers a number of possible explanations for this discrepancy, suggesting that there might be a difference of opinion among the tanna'im on the matter, or, perhaps that the Mishnah and the baraita are discussing different cases. The Mishnah permits the string to be retied in a knot when the string is broken in the middle; the baraita permits only to tie a bow when the string is broken on the side.
Most of the commentaries explain that if the string is broken in the middle, unless a solid knot is made, the music will not sound right. If it is broken at the end of the harp, however, even a weaker knot will suffice to produce the proper sound. Rabbenu Yehonatan and the Bartenura explain this differently. According to them, the reason that one is permitted to tie a knot when the string is broken in the middle is because the Levi will certainly not leave it there after Shabbat - he will untie it and have it replaced. Therefore the knot is not considered a permanent one that would be forbidden to make on Shabbat. If the string breaks at the very edge, however, tying a knot would fix the problem and there would be no need to replace the string after Shabbat. In that case, the knot would be considered a permanent one, which is forbidden on Shabbat on a Biblical level.
Eiruvin 103a-b – Bandaging a kohen's injury
The Mishnayot on our daf (page) continue with a discussion of activities that are permitted in the precincts of the Temple, even though they are forbidden by the Sages under ordinary circumstances.
With regard to a priest who was injured on his finger on Shabbat, he may temporarily wrap it with a reed so that his wound is not visible while he is serving in the Temple. This leniency applies in the Temple, but not in the country, as it also heals the wound, and medical treatment is prohibited on Shabbat due to rabbinic decree.
The term gemi (reed) is, apparently, a general term that refers to the products derived from the papyrus plant - Cyperus papyrus L. This plant was used throughout the ages to produce a variety of manufactured goods. From its hard, outer part, mats were woven; in ancient Egypt and other countries, its inner parts were used for making paper. The soft inner parts also were used for producing strips with which things could be tied, and sometimes - as in our case - for bandages.
The Gemara specifies that only a gemi can be used, and not a small cloth. The small cloth would be a problem either because:
(a) it would be a hatzitzah - a separation between the kohen and the utensil that he needs to hold, or else it involves
(b) yitur begadim - an extra item of clothing beyond the basic uniform of the kohen
While the Gemara makes it sound as though either of these could be the problem, there are significant differences between the two. The problem of hatzitzah is one of separation; thus, if the cloth is put on the left hand, for example, there would be no problem, since the Temple service was done only with the right hand. Yitur begadim is an independent problem, based on bal tosif - that it is forbidden to add to the commandments of the Torah - so once it is defined as a beged (garment), it would create problems no matter where it was placed on the kohen's body.
Eiruvin 104a-b – Forbidding making noise on Shabbat
In connection with activities that are permitted specifically in the Temple precincts, the Mishnah on our daf (page) mentions that water could be drawn from water holes in the Mikdash (Temple) using a water wheel. There were several types of water wheels that existed in Temple times that were used to draw water. This one makes use of a rope and wheel system to raise the bucket containing water. More advanced techniques were also used. This one is based on sketches from Rome and Alexandria. The system is powered by an animal (or, in this sketch, a person) and draws a strong, steady stream of water for agriculture and similar needs.
The Gemara concludes that these techniques were forbidden on Shabbat outside the Mikdash because of a Rabbinic ordinance established because of concern that the water will be used not only for immediate needs, but for watering fields, as well.
An additional consideration that the Gemara suggests is that these might be forbidden because of the noise that they make. Several cases are raised, all of which appear to be outlawed because they make noise. For example, Ulla complains that someone who knocked on the door was involved in Shabbat desecration. He is corrected by Rabba, who says that it is only the creation of music that is problematic. Ulla's position is taken very seriously by the amoraim in Israel. The Jerusalem Talmud relates that Rabbi Ilai spent the night outside his house rather than knock on the door to gain entrance.
Another case raised by the Gemara is a game of nuts played by women. In this game, a board is placed against the wall and nuts are thrown against it. The player whose nut successfully hits others gets to keep them. Such games were played throughout the generations; Rashi reports that they were played in his day, and even today such games are still played. Here, too, the Gemara rejects the suggestion that it is forbidden to play such games on Shabbat because of the noise that is made and concludes that it is because these games, when played on the dirt floor, may lead the players to fill in holes in the ground, which is forbidden on Shabbat.

Lewis Men's Track and Field opens 2013 Season on Friday |
Published: January 10, 2013. The Lewis University men�s track and field team has seen the Flyer women�s track and field squad claim two of the last three Great Lakes Valley Conference indoor championships. Lewis figures that 2013 will be the breakout season for the Flyer men. �We�re pretty excited about the men�s program this year,� Lewis head men�s track and field coach Dana Schwarting said. �The men have been a little jealous of the women having all of the success, so they have been working hard.� Schwarting will be counting on the performances of middle distance runners Scott Tanis (Yorkville, Ill./Yorkville) and Matt Jemilo (Tinley Park, Ill./Tinley Park) to score some big points for the Flyers. Tanis won both the GLVC Outdoor 1,500-meter run (3:53.54) and GLVC Indoor 1-mile run (4:16.7) and qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in 2012. Jemilo was named the GLVC Freshman of the Year following his 800-meter run (1:52.84) title at the GLVC Outdoor Championships last season. �They�re our biggest returners from last year in regards to points and national capabilities,� Schwarting said of Tanis and Jemilo. �They�re both running phenomenally well.� Tanis and Jemilo both figure to account for two of the four legs of the Distance Medley Relay that Schwarting believes can make some noise at the national level. He also figures that the other two legs of the DMR can easily be filled. �We have a deep enough squad of distance runners to where we can plug people in,� Schwarting said. �Hopefully we�ve built that for the foreseeable future to where we keep reloading.� Schwarting can count on juniors Andrew McLain (Fort Wayne, Ind./Homestead) and Sean Smith (Winnebago, Ill./Winnebago/St. Francis (Ill.)) to spearhead the Flyer distance runners. McLain and Smith played a key role in helping the Flyer men�s cross country team to a second-place finish at the 2012 GLVC Championships. Smith and McLain finished third and fourth in the event respectively. McLain advanced to the 2012 NCAA Men�s Cross Country Championships following his third-place performance at the 10K NCAA Midwest Regional Championships. Over the past few years, Schwarting has been building his squad to become more well rounded and he believes that time has come. �We�ve slowly been adding some pieces in the sprints, multi�s and the jumps,� Schwarting said. �We�re ready to make a jump on the GLVC stage and make a run at a title for the next two or three years.� Keying the sprinters will be sophomore Mark Bonds (Chicago, Ill./St. Rita) and junior transfer Lamarr Blandon (Waukegan, Ill./Rend Lake C.C.). Other sprinters expected to contribute are sophomore Jesse Steward (Chicago, Ill./Marian Catholic/Purdue), junior Brock Massie (Chicago, Ill./Kenwood) and senior Lonzo Harris (Oswego, Ill./Oswego East). �We�re deep enough (in the sprints) to where they push each other every day, which is the key to track and field,� Schwarting said. Harris, who will only be competing during the outdoor season, was an All-GLVC Indoor Second Team selection after second place finishes in both the 55-meter dash (6.52) and high jump (1.96 meters) at the GLVC Indoor Championships last year. Steward and Massie will also compete in the jumping events with Harris. That trio will be pushed by the emergence of freshmen Matthew Simmons (Calumet City, Ill./Marian Catholic) and Cody Leach (Chicago, Ill./St. Rita). �We have three or four national caliber student-athletes in the jumps,� Schwarting said. �They can practice against each other every day, push each other and that can only help us in the long run.� �That�s why we�re improving so much,� Schwarting continued. �Our team is getting bigger and we�re having more competition in practice, which is huge.� Schwarting believes that his multi-eventers Jared Harkness (Elmwood, Ill./Elmwood) and Dan Lentz (Minooka, Ill./Minooka) will be a force to be reckoned with in the GLVC. �We feel like (Harkness and Lentz) will both be top-four in the conference in the multi-events and both of them could score points in the pole vault, hurdles or the high jump,� Schwarting said. �Having really good multi-eventers on your team is a huge asset because they score more points than anyone else.� It�s been a long time coming, but the Flyers are ready, according to Schwarting. �It�s been a four-year process of rebuilding this (program) and I think we�re pretty stable,� Schwarting said. �I think we�re going to see a four to five year run to where we�ll be very competitive at the conference championships and nationally� Lewis opens the 2013 campaign on Friday (Jan. 11) evening, as the Flyers host the Lewis Open. Action is set to begin at 4 PM at the Recreation Center Fieldhouse.

December 13, 2013
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- Notre Dame star linebacker Manti Te'o says it was "easy" to get past college football's award season and get focused on the BCS championship against Alabama.
No. 1 Notre Dame will play the second-ranked Crimson Tide on Monday night for the national title. On Thursday morning, Alabama's stars on offense and Notre Dame's defensive leaders spoke to reporters.
Te'o was the Heisman Trophy runner-up and won a bevy of other awards in mid-December, requiring him to travel around the country to various dinners and ceremonies. But Te'o says once he got back to his teammates, he was in his comfort zone.
Notre Dame defensive coordinator Bob Diaco says that Te'o has worked harder in the last week of practice than he has all season.

Two NHS seniors recognized as finalists in Know Your Constitution Competition
Newton Senior High School seniors Britney Samuelson and Samantha Schwarz were honored Friday, Jan. 11, at an awards luncheon in West Des Moines sponsored by the Young Lawyers Division of the Iowa State Bar Association.
Both Samuelson and Schwarz completed a 50-question quiz about the United States Constitution and wrote an essay about whether the federal government can withhold funds for education from states if they do not comply with affirmative action mandates. Also at issue was a school principal's right to discipline a student for online behavior that was offensive to other students.
Samuelson was honored for the third year in a row as a finalist in the competition. She has placed as the top participant for House District 29 (most of Jasper County) for last two years. She moved to Monroe over the summer, and this year she won the top spot for House District 28 (Monroe, Knoxville, Pleasantville). Schwarz placed as the top participant in House District 29 this year.

In July, Fast Company launched a social media experiment called The Influence Project, almost on a whim. The endeavor stemmed from a profile that the magazine ran on "creative company" Mekanism. In the article, Mekanism's president Jason Harris says his company can "engineer virality," and Fast Company decided to test out the theory.
Together, they set out to create a metric for judging influence online, and the result became what is now called The Influence Project, which seeks to find "2010's Most Influential Person." Almost immediately, the project came under fire online, from journalists, bloggers and self-titled influencers who thought Fast Company was measuring digital influence incorrectly.
The jury's still out, but voting for The Influence Project comes to an end August 15. I spoke with Harris and Brendan Gahan, Mekanism's director of social media, to find out how it all came together. And if they think they'll be crowning the most influential person of the year next week.

Does anyone else feel uncomfortable with the new Adobe CC pricing/subscription scheme? I upgrade Photoshop about every four years and I feel like I will be paying more per month for something I don't really need. I have to do more research on their Cloud format, because my initial reaction to it is negative.
Since I've just upgraded my CS5 to CS6, I think I won't have to worry about it for the next few years, but I wanted other people's input on this issue.

As seen on the National Geographic Channel.
Meet the Hutteritesa small religious colony in rural Montana who holds desperately to their sacred traditions while fighting the modern temptations of the outside world. King Colony is made up of 59 people and they are almost all related. This family lives together, works together, and worships God together, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, for their entire lives. And, like any family, this one doesn't always agree. Most of the colony is holding tight to the age-old traditions of their ancestors, while others are flirting with modern society. Some feel that bringing modern technology, education, and ideas into the colony will only help it, while others fear that this modern way of thinking threatens their very existence. We follow the men, the women, the young, and the old, as they strive to live as proper Hutterites. Some will succeed, some will fail, and everyone will have a choice to make. This is the very first glimpse into the world of the Hutterites.
Episodes include Harvest Party Scandal, The Shunning , Rockin' Road Trip, Battle of the Sexes, Shoot to Kill, ER Bound, Show Me the Money!, Breaking the Law, We're Not a Cult and Barnburners.

Ever-changing selection a hallmark of gift shop

This bimonthly magazine profiles successful Central Ohio women and delivers the latest in fashion, shopping, beauty, home decor and more.
I recently visited Thalia & Dahlia in Dublin — a shop that charmed me.
The gift store, with a focus on home-decor items, opened about five years ago. In the fall, it moved next door and tripled its size by occupying a two-story home at 119 S. High St.
The shop is filled with a range of items, from $5 sweet treats to custom $400 candlesticks. Owners Christopher Krupa and Michael Smith pride themselves on offering new items every week and often selling them for less than the suggested retail prices.
"We just wanted to make a really fun gift shop that always changes," said Krupa, who creates custom floral designs in the shop. "We only buy what we love."
If you're in the market for a gift, here are some suggestions:
• Michel Design Works shea-butter soap, $10 — for that perfect little something (beautifully wrapped).
• Olivina hand and body lotion, $22 — rich and soothing, with divine scents that last longer than a minute.
• Lafco candle in the sea-and-dune scent, $55 — for the spirit of the beach when you can't be there.
Second store
Elm & Iron owner Daniel McClurg will take over the space that the Found shop is vacating in Powell.
Last year, McClurg opened Elm & Iron in the Clintonville neighborhood. He plans to open the second location of the industrial-chic home-decor shop in late summer — and he promises a twist.
Fashion auction
The Columbus Young Professionals Club will host its annual A Date 2 Remember charity fashion show and auction on Saturday. Proceeds benefit City Year Columbus and United Way of Central Ohio. Tickets, starting at $35, are available at www. date2remember.org.
Senior-project runway
Tickets for the annual Columbus College of Art & Design Senior Fashion Show are available. The runway show and after-party will take place May 10 on the CCAD campus.Tickets start at $100 at www.ccad.edu.

especially his critical time often staged this show
The start of the game, the Spurs Duncan was the first force resorted to the standard attack inside face of Steve Jobs, Nfl jerseys china,a 45-degree angle hit a plate can be seen from this momentum Popovich would be very concerned and Warriors The game is the sheer strength of the contest.
Jobs has always admit defeat, the first ball is aging Duncan easily hit the the Warriors turn is desperately requirements, this is undoubtedly a positive for the Warriors, Lin Fei Jobs and teammates often less find their own requirements, at least for now rarely find their own ball, and if there is, it certainly is that his teammates have a strong desire to attack. Jobs received the ball gently inside the top two, he is far did not expect to Duncan even has aged, but the footwall still firm, Steve Jobs this step did not grab a favorable position, only to turn around fadeaway jumper, Duncan paste, Jobs shot robust, easy to hit.
Duncan and Jobs duel is not the first time, he knew that Steve Jobs is a relatively soft post player, is a power forward, but in fact, his insider impact is not very strong, although the data is also good, but a large degree is also thanks to the tactics of the Warriors has done.
Duncan second attack still turn around and strong play Jobs. Nelson previously arranged time for Duncan's defense is Steve Jobs single anti to Nelson was convinced Popovich will not let Duncan playing a long time, but the action has been very slow in Duncan, playing Steve Jobs is still somewhat difficult. But was convinced that the wrong thin dead camel than Martha, even if the pace of aging Duncan inside is a bit slow, but the face of the defense is not very tough opponents, Duncan was able to easily eat, for example, Steve Jobs so, Duncan seems very easy to play. To explain, Duncan once encountered strong inside, it is easy to lose, for example, Randolph and Gasol of the Memphis Grizzlies, in the case now, is almost finished blasting Duncan, but that kinds of powerful post player the Warriors lack lightness and speed of play, the Braves in the league is Yiqijuechen, but if the requirements of the melee, the Warriors eventually trample opponents life. Duncan turned hook shot again. This is a bad signal for the Warriors.
Nelson seems a little frown,Cheap hockey jerseys, but he still hold to live! He would like to continue to look at the situation in the field.
Jobs Linfei again find the ball while on turnaround jumpers, really is powerful! Jobs is really the heart, or a few, turned again to face Duncan hit.
Nelson can be considered loose, still did not think the Spurs targeted defense, which undoubtedly gave Jobs more offensive opportunities.
Duncan roll up our sleeves, again strong play Steve Jobs, but this time Steve Jobs posted very tight and try to drive down their own chassis, to stabilize their center of gravity, however, Duncan or ceasing wore Jobs, Jobs is no retreat, Duncan followed a homeopathic turned, Jobs see opportunities to call is heard on the jump, go the cap Duncan hands of the ball, but just jump knew fooled sophisticate turned on her own in Duncan layup. Fortunately, the ball did not hit. Duncan's free throws, hit two free throws, Duncan nickname "Buddha", always stern feeling, but after this foul, we can easily find that Duncan minds of delighted.
Jobs began to rage, he has dominated the the Warriors twice offensive, and live up to expectations, also play a success. Third minor ball, Lin Fei feeling Jobs feels good, and once again did, but this time obviously too hasty Jobs received the ball, turned and is fadeaway Duncan forced tight, Jobs shot space is too small The ball hit the basket neck, the Spurs' Ginobili got the rebound.
Ginobili is definitely underrated players, although he never squeezed into scoring top ten, but he is definitely the league scoring efficiency, five or even three players. The Ginobili nickname "Yao Dao, his dribble nature is like a knife in general sharp, often staged got the rebound, and then Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles, directly reached the score of the play of the other restricted area, such as a knife inserted directly into each other's heart, especially his critical time often staged this show, his snake-like breakthrough, quite practical and ornamental peak Ginobili and Lin Fei breakthrough speed and The footsteps absolutely have a fight, but now it is difficult to say, after all, Ginobili is old, very powerful injuries. However attendant, Ginobili seems want to prove himself got it, got the rebound to direct the ball, bolted the front court, has flashed a defensive Aix, after go hand in hand and Cairns, Ginobili a behind the change to dribble, flashed Keynes Linfei immediate concern in front of Ginobili, Nike elite jerseys,and Ginobili a change to, Lin Fei had expected to, but Lin Fei grab suitable location, Ginobili or forced in that position to open the top Linfei, dribble and kill to the basket and a relaxing hit a layup.
Nelson began to sigh Ginobili sharp. So a shooting guard, the league really is hard to find, but Nielsen know, in fact, this time the Warriors defense is a problem, if Zhong intercept Ginobili Lin Fei, and the last defensive Ginobili Cairns, this time defensive maybe that is a classic defense, but unfortunately, the players did not do.
Ginobili ball directly angered Aix and Cairns, This is the swingmen combination of one of the strongest in the league (Oh, to count in accordance with offensive the Warriors offensive guard combination or striking combination are the most powerful in the league, in addition to insider combination). In particular, Keynes, just like one to be singled out and Manu Ginobili momentum.
Warriors next attack, Keynes surprisingly active ball. How to play the Spurs suddenly becomes a kind of fact, we are not quite ball attack, that is, let the point guard arrangements. But today vs. Spurs seem extra hard.
The ball the Keynesian point line at the angle of 45 degrees, the face is too Ginobili Manu Ginobili, Cairns physique is far stronger, Jobs, step directly to the pick-and-roll is to make use of high rounded out the inside, this time In fact, Lin Fei at the outside third walk, originally Linfei most point of the attack force, the ball should give Linfei Keynes obviously a bit angry, directly kill. Ginobili rapidly to keep up with, but Ginobili Where can directly in the location of the free-throw line inside step directly on the take-off of the block has been aggressive in Cairns, Cairns, seemed like a super world's best dunk, but this even when Duncan also danced attempts to prevent, Cheap coach handbags,Cairns is a little angry, but his head is still very clear the Deng Kenfei over the big hand is directed at their own hands the ball, Cairns, this time jump height far exceeds Duncan, Cairns change the ball to the left hand begins to fall, this time after Duncan danced But Keynes still being slightly rise, Duncan landing moment to see Cairns direct repression to live in their own body, his left hand across their own, with a dunks. This record ChongKou directly attracted all the Warriors exclaimed! League seemingly also recently have not been born the classic personal dunks, Moreover dunks background or Duncan, is definitely the top grade of the rare dunk in the league.
Violence men - Cairns. Warriors may lack the inside of a violent, but definitely not the lack of a violent player, Cairns is the best proof of this, do not provoke him, he from time to time that the outbreak of absolute as is also shaking the.
But Ginobili How can it be ordinary, by Keynes so amazing dunks, the mind naturally fit.

There has been a woman in labor here at Shanti for the past two days. Viola looks about my daughter Anna's age, but she is actually 25, and this will be her third living child. She is petite, commited to this labor, and really really working hard. She is laboring out of site of the training, although we catch glimpes of her walking around the beautiful grounds, working with through her contractions with the help of an older woman. I assume this is her mother-in-law, as they seem to be the most common labor attendants here. She has captured all of our hearts; her labor is difficult, and she is so so tired.
We always say that third babies are the wild card. While they are housed in an experienced uterus, it is one who has been stretched out. Third babies can get into all sorts of wonky positions, causing a longer (and depending on the position of the baby) more intense. labor. Early this afternoon, one of the midwives asks if I would check her, as they would like to know if I can ascertain the position of the baby, and maybe give some suggestions to help.
When I enter the birth room, Viola is lying on a plastic sheet, moaning slightly, even when she is not actively contracting. She is having a very difficult time relaxing between contractions, and she is holding her lower back. I note where she is lying (her left side), and that she taps out a quick staccato rhythm with her right hand when she contracts. She is sweating, shaking, and she is deep deep into that place we call Labor Land. She does not glance up at me as I sit silently on the bed next to her, just letting her get used to my presence. Her belly is flat in front, from just above the umbilicus to a few inches below. Her contractions are irregular, between 3 and 6 minutes apart, although when they do come, they are very strong. I ask her softly if I can feel her belly, and she nods quickly, just once.
Now, so far, my "examination" of her has been pure observation, and observation is the heart of doula work. If she's clutching her back, there's a good chance it probably hurts even in between contractions. Lying instinctively on her left side is not only good for getting the maximum amount of oxygen to the baby, but can also help a baby rotate and come down into the birth canal. And a flat front belly can indicate a baby who is hanging out in the occiput posterior position, also known as "sunnyside up." The baby's spine is resting against the mother's and this bone on bone action can cause the dreaded "back labor." And, from the shape of her belly, I can tell that the baby has not yet dropped down into the pelvis. This is not uncommon in women who have had prior babies, so it doesn't really concern me. From the length of her labor, I can theorize that this baby is probably not only sunnyside up, most likely acynclitic as well, a situation where the baby's head gets cocked off to one side or the other. This makes it harder for the baby to descend, as the surface area of the head is increased.
All of these things can be helped along (sometimes) by positioning exercises, which, coincidently, is exactly what we are teaching today! So convenient. The midwives have already used some of the exercises we showed them, but here is a great chance to illustrate how to read a labor, how to put all these little clues together and make a plan to get this baby shifted. I knew that as soon at the baby worked out how to drop into the pelvis, Viola would not have to push long. I could tell from the size of her belly and some gentle palpation that this was not a giant baby, and if she had birthed two full term babies previously, there should be plenty of room.
At this point, I pretty much knew all there was to know, and an internal exam was just going to be a formality. She was most likely almost through dilating, but the baby was still high in the pelvis, trying to turn its head this way and that, searching for the way that fit him or her best. The trick was going to be to give her enough time, and keep her energy up enough to let her body and her baby do their work. She was very very tired, although she was eating pineapple and peeing frequently. (This last is important, as a full bladder can impede a baby's descent. Think about how close the bladder is to the uterus, and you can see why. For those readers without a uterus, I'm sure you can imagine.
I grab a glove from the box, and ask her permission to examine her. She nods once and rolls over. Sure enough, she is 9 cm dilated, but the baby is still floating. As hard as she has been working, she's going to have to do a bit more. I explain how to position her on her left side, with her leg raised high on pillows, almost lying on her baby. In the western obstetrical world, we call this position Modified Sims. In Viola's world, we call it resting comfortably. I give the midwives a few more suggestions for when Viola is able to participate more actively, including the Captain Morgan (one leg on a chair, the other on the ground, swaying gently through contractions) and hands and knees, leaning over one of the new donated birth balls. (Thank you, Simkin Center in Seattle!!). I smile at her, check the heart tones of the baby to ensure that he or she is liking this position, (heart tones are perfect!) and leave her with the Ugandan midwives.
This goes on all afternoon. Periodically I would be asked to check on her, and periodically I would go in and hang out with her, offering suggestions as we went. Eventually the midwives start an IV, just to keep her hydrated in the Ugandan heat. We also used the rebozo with her, and put her through a million different other positions. She was a trooper though all of it. Eventually it was time to leave, though, and Viola was still laboring. I was certain she would either deliver that night, or be transported for an obstructed labor.
The next morning, I was delighted to find that she had birthed during the night. Hooray!! And sure enough, it had only taken two pushes . Baby just had to find the way. As Melinda and I sat admiring the baby, and telling Viola how wonderful she was, I asked his name. "Jane, I want you to name him," she replied, smiling. I was shocked and honored. Together we decided on Patrick, after my beloved husband. It is a gift to get close enough to someone that they want you to name their baby. A true gift to connect on the most basic womanly level, though birth. I hope Patrick lives a long and happy life. I know he has a wonderful family, and I hope I can see him next time I return to Shanti.
