The FTS Sites Terms of Service Agreement
Effective as of June 28, 2013
Description of FTS Services and Acceptance of Terms of Service
Welcome to the Fox Television Stations group of website(s) (the "FTS Site(s)"), which are operated by the television stations (the "FTS Station(s)") owned by Fox Television Stations, Inc. and/or certain of its affiliated entities (collectively, "FTS" or "we"). The services FTS provides on the FTS Sites may include photos, videos, video players, community pages, message boards and any other features, content, or applications, including when accessed via the Internet, mobile or other devices (collectively, the "FTS Services"). FTS is based in the United States and the FTS Services are hosted in the United States. FTS is a part of the United States based operations of Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc.
FTS furnishes the FTS Sites and the FTS Services for your personal enjoyment and entertainment. By visiting the FTS Sites (whether or not you are a registered user) or using the FTS Services, you accept and agree to be bound by this Agreement, including any future modifications ("Agreement"), and to abide by all applicable laws, rules and regulations ("Applicable Law"). Please read through this Agreement carefully. FTS may modify this Agreement at any time, and each such modification will be effective upon posting on or linking from the FTS Sites. All material modifications will apply prospectively only. Your continued use of the FTS Sites or the FTS Services following any such modification constitutes your acceptance and agreement to be bound by the Agreement as so modified. It is therefore important that you review this Agreement regularly. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement and to abide by all Applicable Law, you must discontinue use of the FTS Services immediately. You may receive a copy of this Agreement by emailing the Site Administrator listed in the "Contacts" link on the applicable FTS Site. Your access to and use of certain FTS Services may require you to accept additional terms and conditions applicable to such FTS Services, in addition to this Agreement, and may require you to download Software or Content (each as defined below).
Eligibility for the FTS Sites Registration and Account Security
Use of FTS Services is limited to users aged 13 years and above. The FTS Sites may offer one or more accounts requiring user registration. All registration information you submit to create an account must be accurate and must be kept updated. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and are responsible for all use of your account. It is therefore critical that you do not share your password with anyone. You agree not to use the account, username, email address or password of another user at any time. You agree to notify FTS immediately if you suspect any unauthorized use of, or access to, your account or password.
This Agreement remains in full force and effect while you use the FTS Services. You may terminate one or more of your accounts on any of the FTS Sites at any time, for any reason, by contacting the Site Administrator listed in the "Contacts" link on the applicable FTS Site. FTS may terminate one of more of your account(s) and/or access to the FTS Services at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice or explanation, and without liability. Furthermore, even after your user account or access to the FTS Services is terminated, this Agreement will remain in effect. You agree that your account is non-transferable and any rights to your account terminate upon your death.
Purchasing Services or Products
If you purchase any service or product ("Product(s)") on, or by linking from, any of the FTS Sites, you may be required to provide personal information, including credit card and billing information ("Personal Financial Information"), to an independent third party company or companies selected by FTS (or, in some cases, its direct contractors), but not affiliated with FTS (the "Processor"). Where the Processor is responsible for collecting, transmitting and/or processing your Personal Financial Information and, in some instances, for fulfilling your order, all payment obligations for Products shall be governed by the terms of use/service and privacy policy(ies) of the Processor. If you make a purchase from the FTS Sites you are warranting that you are authorized to make the purchase using the form of payment card that you provide to the Processor. You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase a Product.
FTS makes no warranty, and accepts no liability for any loss or damages whatsoever, relating to or in connection with your placement of an order for a Product with the Processor. FTS provides no refunds for purchases you make on the FTS Sites. You are solely responsible for any and all transactions utilizing your Personal Financial Information, including, but not limited to, any and all charges. You acknowledge and agree that in the event Processor experiences a data breach that affects your Personal Financial Information, FTS will in no way be responsible or liable to you for any such breach.
FTS will not store any record of Personal Financial Information related to purchases or other transactions you make through the FTS Services. You should therefore maintain records of all your transactions. If you have any questions regarding your transactions or believe that there is an error or unauthorized transaction or activity associated with transactions utilizing your Personal Financial Information, you must contact the Processor.

Except as provided in this Agreement or as explicitly allowed on the FTS Services, you may not copy, download, stream capture, reproduce, duplicate, archive, upload, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, retransmit, distribute, perform, display, sell or otherwise use any Content appearing on or through the FTS Services.

This prohibition applies regardless of whether the derivative works or materials are sold, bartered or given away. You may not either directly or through the use of any device, software, internet site, web-based service or other means remove, bypass, avoid, interfere with, or circumvent any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices marked on the Content or any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content protection or access control measure associated with the Content including geo-filtering mechanisms.

FTS may revoke this license at any time upon notice, with or without cause, in its sole discretion. You must not modify, enhance, or otherwise alter in any way any portion of the Content on the video player, the video player itself or its underlying technology.

- Solicit, collect or request any personal information for commercial or unlawful purposes;

It's been 120 years since H.H. Holmes terrorized the South Side Englewood neighborhood and became what's generally considered America's first serial killer.
Even after all that time, there are some new theories about Holmes' so-called "Murder Castle" and whether he may also be responsible for some of the Jack the Ripper killings.
Many people had never heard of H.H. Holmes until the publication 10 years ago of the best-selling book "Devil in the White City" which recounts Holmes' murder spree set against the backdrop of the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
It was long believed there was nothing left of the Englewood "Murder Castle" where Holmes supposedly killed as many as 200 visitors to the fair, but now a retired U.S. postal employee believes he may have found evidence of one of the most infamous crime scenes in U.S. history.
If anyone knows about this building's secret, it's Rory Hood. For 25 years, he was the maintenance man at the Englewood post office--a massive concrete building from the 1930's at 63rd and Wallace. It wasn't until a few years ago that hood learned from curious visitors about what used to be on this site.
"I was just amazed and shocked to find out that this is the first serial killer of the United States here at my place of employment," Hood says.
Herman Webster Mudgett, better known under the alias "H.H. Holmes," came to Chicago in the 1880's and built a three-story hotel near the site of today's post office to cash in on visitors to the nearby Columbian Exposition. But, Chicago historian Adam Selzer says it was unlike any hotel ever built.
"The second floor was rigged up with all sorts of secret passages, hidden chambers, hidden rooms," Selzer says. "There was a vault he was fond of showing off as being soundproof."
Holmes was later accused of killing dozens of visitors and employees, mostly women. He took out insurance policies on his victims, and then asphyxiated them in gas chambers, dumping their bodies down chutes into the basement where their skeletons would be stripped of flesh and sold to hospitals and medical colleges.
That brings us back to the post office basement and this mysterious tunnel.
Rory Hood took us on a tour of a long, winding tunnel that zigzags underneath the post office and into an area once occupied by the "Murder Castle."
"It's really spooky sometimes down here," Hood says about the passageway.
"I can't get none of the employees to come down. 'Come on, I'll take you for a tour,'" he adds. "Nobody wants to come in here."
While it's clear much of the tunnel was built in the 1930's, there is a stretch lined by a crumbling brick wall.
"Part of this wall is remnants, I believe, from the old building," Hood explains. "Might have been part of the "Murder Castle."
"The bricks that partially line the wall just seem to be completely out of place and they look about right for being 1890's Chicago-style bricks," says Selzer. "There's some evidence of fire damage on them which is just what I'd like to see if I were looking for something from the murder castle."
We may never unlock the secrets of these tunnels, but could Holmes be the connection to another famous mystery?
"We've solved Jack the Ripper," says Hood. "We haven't proven it yet."
Jeff Mudgett, the great great grandson of H.H. Holmes, recently wrote a book about his infamous ancestor and his startling theory that Holmes was responsible for at least some of serial killer Jack the Ripper's London murders in 1888.
Mudgett says Holmes seems to have disappeared from Chicago at the time of the ripper murders. He says a comparison of handwriting between the two men shows a 98 percent similarity and that a recent Scotland yard drawing of the ripper based on eyewitness accounts bears an uncanny resemblance to Holmes.
"I showed it to professionals in the FBI. That's what they do. They run computer schematics with photographs to try to ID serial killers," Mudgett says. "They said that was the closest they'd ever seen in their career."
Mudgett says he is in discussions with a Hollywood studio to turn his book and theory into a movie.
A film version of "The Devil in the White City" has been in the works for some time, with Leonardo Dicaprio starring as H.H. Holmes, but that production has been beset by problems, and may or may not ever get made.

LAPEER, Mich. (WJBK) -- A large fire in downtown Lapeer's historic business district has gutted a building that includes apartments and led to damage at the adjacent Pix Theatre.No injuries were reported following the blaze, which started around 7 p.m. Tuesday about 45 miles northwest of Detroit.
Mayor William Sprauge says between 25-30 people living in the apartments were displaced by the fire. They were being housed in the county courthouse and receiving assistance from the Red Cross.The cause wasn't immediately known.Chief of Lapeer Fire and Rescue Terry Kluge says the fire started in one of the second floor apartments, located above retail space. He said the fire spread quickly, but crews from several departments were able to contain the blaze.
"We're very happy with where we're at," said Kluge in regards to saving the Pix Theatre, which is over 100 years old and recently underwent a $300,000 renovation.Kluge says the theatre has minor smoke and water damage.-- The Associated Press contributed to this report

Perception Prodigy 13.5
A most excellent kayak for flat and mostly calm waters (rivers, lakes, and bays). Very stable with plenty of room for a companion, whether a larger dog or most tweens and younger. Excels at kayak camping. Don't be fooled by the Cons, this is an awesome kayak if you are serious about bringing your buddy with you, kayak camping, or both. It also works just fine for a short solo paddle as well, although so do plenty of other kayaks. Marketing. I fault copy/paste marketing folks for having bad info… Full review
Old Town Camden 120
I have a couple of kayaks, and have always wanted an Old Town Camden. I was not disappointed. It is very stable, tracks very well, and is comfortable for my 6.3 height. Awesome kayak!!!! Full review
Dagger Mamba 7.6
Super maneuverable and quick around rapids. Took it on the Gauley River and it handled like a pro. I loveeeeee this kayak. <3 Full review
Wilderness Systems Zephyr 160
Great "big water" ride. Fast and maneuverable. Love this kayak. Did quite a bit of research prior to the purchase last spring (2013). The rocker and narrow width make this kayak easy to maneuver and quick in a straight line. Initial stability is OK and while the width is only 23.5 inches it offers plenty of leg room. (I am 6' 0" and weigh 200 lbs.) The seat is super comfortable as Wilderness Systems seats are traditionally known to be. The skeg definitely helps in windy conditions. This is… Full review
Old Town Dirigo 120
I love this kayak. It has everything that I would ever want in a kayak and more. It is very stable and tracks fairly well , plus the seat is the most comfortable seat I have ever sat in, which helps for long trips. This kayak is the best kayak I have ever used. It is fantastic for long trips in lakes or rivers. It is also great for fishing because option is so stable and your back never gets sore from sitting because of the comfortable seat. It can handle 1-2 foot waves with ease. It also tracks… Full review
Old Town Dirigo 120
Nice boat for the price. I have had this boat for five years and really enjoy it for both river trips and for just bummin around on a lake. Great boat to fish from as it is very stable when casting. Tracks nicely but is also easy to maneuver. Comfortable to be in for several hours at a time. The only downside is because of its length it is a little heavy to put on top of an SUV by oneself.

Old Town Camden 120
This kayak is very stable and cruises right along! I can't think of anything negative to say about it. I am thrilled to own an Old Town kayak. Quality is king, and Old Town is worthy. I tooled around the edge of a half frozen lake as my first test run, and the Camden performed extremely well. I love how easy it is to keep a steady pace once I reach my desired speed. It coasts for a long time when I stop paddling, which is pretty satisfying! Tons of storage, probably enough for a dome tent in the… Full review
Old Town Dirigo 106
I love the storage hatches on this kayak. It is light enough for me to easily load on the top of my SUV. I have had my Dirigo for nine months and love it. My favorite part is the storage hatches which are easily accessible while on the water. This is a well made, durable kayak. I am 5'-7" and have plenty of leg room. This kayak is very stable on the water and is lightweight enough that it is easy for me to load it on my SUV without any assistance. I have used this kayak on rivers, ponds, and lakes. Full review
Old Town Vapor 10
I purchased this kayak last season and spent a lot of time on the water. I am very pleased with the performance and comfort of this kayak. For the price this was a great option. I would recommend this kayak for pond and flat lake fishing. The Old Town Vapor 10 Angler is a great fishing kayak for flat water lakes and small ponds. It has a very comfortable seat which means more time on the water. It is lightweight and easy to transport to your favorite fishing hole. I have really enjoyed mine and… Full review

Oral History Program

Arlo Mueller
Interviewed by
Steven F. Crane
12 March 2013
Copyright © 2013 by Weber State University, Stewart Library
Mission Statement
The Oral History Program of the Stewart Library was created to preserve the institutional history of Weber
State University and the Davis, Ogden and Weber County communities. By conducting carefully
researched, recorded, and transcribed interviews, the Oral History Program creates archival oral histories
intended for the widest possible use.
Interviews are conducted with the goal of eliciting from each participant a full and accurate account of
events. The interviews are transcribed, edited for accuracy and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewees
(as available), who are encouraged to augment or correct their spoken words. The reviewed and
corrected transcripts are indexed, printed, and bound with photographs and illustrative materials as
available. Archival copies are placed in the University Archives, which also houses the original recording
so researchers can gain a sense of the interviewee's voice and intonations.
Project Description
The Weber and Davis County Communities Oral History Collection include interviews of citizens from
several different walks of life. These interviews were conducted by Stewart Library personnel, Weber
State University faculty and students, and other members of the community. The histories cover various
topics and chronicle the personal everyday life experiences and other recollections regarding the history
of the Weber and Davis County areas.
Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through recorded interviews between a
narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with
the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. Because it is primary material, oral
history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken
account. It reflects personal opinion offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it
is partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable.
Rights Management
All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to
the Stewart Library of Weber State University. No part of the manuscript may be
published without the written permission of the University Librarian. Requests for
permission to publish should be addressed to the Administration Office, Stewart
Library, Weber State University, Ogden, Utah, 84408. The request should include

Abstract: Arlo Mueller participated in an oral history interview with Steve Crane of
the Ogden Rotary Club on March 12, 2013 to share his experiences as a veteran
of the Marine Corps. Arlo voluntarily enlisted in the Marines in 1942 and served
in World War II with the Marine Air Squadron as a guard and an anti-aircraft
machine gun operator. After separating from the military in 1945, Arlo became a
member of the Ogden Fire Department from which he retired in 1968. He then
worked as a fire inspector at Hill Field (Hill Air Force Base) and retired in 1975.
SC: This is the fourth session of the 2013 Rotary Club and Weber State University
Veteran's History project held March 12, 2013 at the George E. Whalen Ogden
Veteran's Home. My name is Steve Crane, a member of the Ogden Rotary Club
and I will be conducting this interview. Also present are Stacie Gallagher from
Weber State University and my wife, Donna Crane. Our guest at this session is
Arlo Mueller and we will be talking about Mr. Mueller's experiences in the military.
First, I would like to thank you very much for being here, we appreciate your time.
I would like to ask a few questions to start. I understand you were in the Marines
and your date of birth is May 4, 1922. You were in the Marines from 1942 to 1945
and your rank was Corporal. You say your position was to do anything you were
AM: I was trained with a 50 caliber machine gun for anti-aircraft fire and trained in the
aircraft identification. I was with the Marine Air Squadron. My job was guard duty
and it took a five man crew to run the machine gun. I had done just about
anything that needed done, but most of it was guard duty.
SC: How did you come to be in the Marines?
AM: The day after Pearl Harbor, my buddy and I went down to enlist in the Navy and
we got there and the line was about two blocks long and we had to get back to
work. So at about 11:00, we went to work and I didn't join until later on.
SC: You said the Navy, but you ended up joining the Marines?
AM: Yes. We were going to join the Navy, but it was such a long line and we got tired
of waiting and went back to work and sometime later I joined the Marines.
SC: Where did you receive your training?
AM: San Diego.
SC: When you went overseas, where did you go? What were some of the locations
that you served?
AM: When I left boot camp, I was in the hospital and the platoon was graduating and I
was by myself. They sent me to North Lyre which was a Navy base and were
starting a brand new squadron now, so we were a charter member of the
checkerboard squadron. We left there and I went to school in Norman, Oklahoma
and they went to Cherry Point, South Carolina, which was a Marine boot camp.
We spent three months gathering other people to get the squadron formed. Then
we went to Hawaii for three months of training in Hawaii. That's where I got my
experience with the 50 caliber machine gun. From San Diego, we were on a new
aircraft carrier Hornet, the old one got sunk. There were 6,000 men and 300
airplanes on this one ship. We slept on the deck on a cot underneath the wing of
the airplane. We had two meals a day. After we had our three months or so, we
got on another aircraft carrier and went to Espirito Santos, it was a staging point
for all the battles in the war in the Pacific. There was a big base there. We had
this crew of ground defense and these other guys to protect the pilots and I was
on guard duty. They sent this crew of 25 of us to Ulithi. Rabal is a Japanese base
comparable to the one that we left and they were given some trouble up around
Ulithi. Our squadron was supposed to go up and eliminate this problem. We got
there and the planes never showed up. They got sent to the Palawan Islands
owned by the British, they had some problems there. So, we had to turn around
and come back by an old merchant marine ship to go back to Espirito Santos. As
we came out, they had that submarine hatch closed and they opened that up to
let us and the merchant marine ship in front of us got torpedoed by a submarine
and we had to go 1000 miles all by ourselves. No escort or anything and this old
thing would only go ten miles an hour. It was going downhill and no light, no
noise or anything. It was a long way back.
SC: Which islands were you headed for?
AM: We went to Ulithi to get the planes to bomb the Japs in Rabal, then we'd come
back to Ulithi. Our planes never arrived, so we went back and regrouped. So, we
got all regrouped and the 1st of March, they put us aboard an LST, do you know
what that is?
SC: A landing craft?
AM: It's a landing craft. We call it a "Long Slow Target." It's actually a landing ship for
tanks and stuff like that. So we started to load this LST and we got everything all
together and we just floated around out in the ocean waiting for the invasion of
Okinawa to get all our things together. In the China seas, the ground swells are
about 35 to 40 feet. I was sitting on my bunk and there was not much room
between the bunks, they were so crowded. All of a sudden, a guy came up and
starting beating the heck out of me and pounding on me. All I could do was reach
up and grab him around the waist. It's a good thing I did that because his
appendix had ruptured and if I would have hit him or anything it would have killed
him. They took him to the galley, tied him down and took his appendix out when
the whole ship was floating around there. The L-day was April 1, 1945 for
SC: That was the invasion day?
AM: Yes. It was a very easy landing. I thought, "Gee, this is a cakewalk." They didn't
get into any trouble on the third day and the Japanese never put an opposition
for landing, but they had ten years to build caves. I called them killing fields. They
had everything zero-in on this little valley and let these guys walk into it. Our
planes came in about April 6, 1945 and we didn't know it, but up on the mountain
across the way there was a 6-inch German Naval gun on railroad tracks that had
everything zeroed-in for twenty miles around where we were at. He shelled us for
about two months. We called him "Pistol Pete." One day, he took a pot shot at a
battleship in the bay and it blew him out of the hill with a 14-inch shell after about
two months.
SC: The battleship fired back at him and took him out?
AM: Yes, he got too cocky I guess. We said, "They got "Pistol Pete" last night.
SC: How long were you on Okinawa?
AM: Three months. We left just a few days before it was over and I had my 18 months
in and I was on my way home. This army started shooting artillery and saying,
"The war is over, the war over." They jerked us off of the ship and took the
occupation troops to Japan. We unloaded beer for about two weeks until we got
a new ship. It was a converted luxury liner and there were thousands of people
on that ship. I had the best duty of my whole career on that ship. They gave me a
belt and I'd walk the nurse's quarters and keep the officers off.
SC: Keep the officers away from the nurses?
AM: Yes. We'd keep the officers away from the nurses and walk the corridors where
there were 45 of them.
SC: Were you on any other islands other than Okinawa?
AM: We had been through almost all the others on the ship, but we never actually had
any battle or anything.
SC: How close contact did you come with the enemy?
AM: Well, I don't want to talk too much about what actually happened. When I came
in here I had a monkey on my back, and now I've got an angel on my shoulder.
So, I'd rather not go into any details that happened. My wife is the only one that
knew that I was this way until I told the doctor in here about what my problems
SC: Were you ever wounded yourself?
AM: No, thank God. I had a lot of fun. Well, it wasn't fun either, but –
SC: Did you make some close friends in the Marines?
AM: It's funny, the guys from the East Coast were hard to get acquainted with. The
Westerners were really easy to get acquainted with. If you'd make a friend with
one of those guys you had a real friend. The guys from different parts of the
country were different.
SC: Have you remained close with any of your Marine friends?
AM: No. There was one guy I kept for a while, but I haven't contacted any of the
others at all. Our Lieutenant disappeared when we went ashore. We didn't know
what happened to him. Two years after the war, I was just reading a magazine
article that said, "True War Stories." It told about this doctor from Oregon that had
to put sandbags on the operating table with this guy that had a live 20mm round
in his thigh because he didn't want to explode. He had to put his arms in
sandbags to operate on this Marine. I found out that it was our Lieutenant
Stevens. It's strange, you know.
SC: What have you done since your service?
AM: When I came home on my 30 day leave, my uncle worked in the fire department
and I stopped by to talk to him. He said, "There's going to be an opening here,
what are you waiting for?" So, I put in my application. When I came back on the
train the next day I took the test and about a year later I got hired. I retired from
the Ogden Fire Department in 1968 and I went to Hill Field and retired from Hill
Field in 1975 as a fire inspector.
SC: So you've been a fireman and a fire inspector in your life? Do you have children?
AM: I have one son. He's 66 years old.
SC: Where is he living?
AM: He lives in West Point. We've been going to the Golden Corral for breakfast
every morning for about seven years.
SC: Is that right?
AM: Yes, and they know us. We go at 10:30 a.m. and have breakfast and stay for a
couple hours and talk.
SC: How many grandchildren?
AM: My son has three children and the one son had two and the other one has four
and had another one yesterday, so I've got seven.
SC: Has your wife passed away or is she still with you?
AM: She passed away with Alzheimer's. I took care of her for about three years and I
couldn't go any further so we put her in a rest home and she died two weeks
SC: Arlo, thank you for being with us. Is there anything else you would like to share
with us that you think we ought to know about your life and your experiences?
AM: I lived in South Ogden for forty years and for thirty years I've been to every
council meeting in South Ogden. I videotape their meetings and all kinds of stuff.
They didn't like me too well, but I kept them on the straight and narrow. I took
one mayor to the grand jury.
SC: You did?
AM: Yes, I was a nice fellow.
SC: Sometimes we need citizens to keep track of our elected officials, don't we?
AM: That's true. I could say a lot of stuff, but we won't go into it.

This product arrived really quickly and is exactly as described. it makes the carrycot look fabulous.
My dear friend Polly is having her first baby; being a very conscientious person at her heart, she is apt to want perfection in everything for her new baby. When her pram arrived and it was all black, she burst into tears. She didn't want her baby in a hearse, she said. When I found this product (with the help of her dearly devoted husband, on the sly, and as a surprise) it changed everything. I took this wee present over on the evening of the day it arrived, and it transformed Polly: she has the most beautiful pram now, with the bag that matches the slightly off cherry-red perfectly, she proceeded to cry tears of joy. Many thanks for turning it around for my nearly-due friends.

Truncus arteriosus is a defect in the large blood vessels that leave the heart.
Normally, two large blood vessels, called the aorta and pulmonary artery carry blood away from the heart. The aorta carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body. The pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs. As the heart develops. a section of these two blood vessels sometimes combine together. It creates one large vessel called the truncus arteriosus. The oxygen-poor and oxygen-rich blood leaving the heart mix in this combined blood vessel. The mixed blood decreases the amount of oxygen-rich blood that reaches the body.
The defect also includes a large hole in the wall between the lower chambers of the heart.

Truncus arteriosus is a problem with the development of the heart while the baby is in the womb. It is not known exactly why some hearts develop this way.
Factors that may increase the risk for congenital heart disease may include:
Low oxygen levels in the body may cause symptoms such as:
The doctor may also detect a fast heart rate during the exam.
Your doctor may suspect a heart problem based on your child's symptoms and heart rate. Blood tests and oxygen saturation tests may be done to assess the levels of oxygen in your child's blood. To confirm the diagnosis and create images of the heart, your doctor may order:
Early treatment is important to help prevent complications such as
heart failure. Treatment options may include:
Surgery is usually done right away, during infancy. The type of surgery depends on how severe the defect is. The goals are to improve circulation, which may be done by:
Other surgeries may be needed as your child grows.
Medications may be given to help support your child's heart before surgery. Medication may be given to:
After surgery, your child may need antibiotics before certain medical or dental procedures. This is to prevent an infection in the heart.
Your child will have regular exams from a heart specialist.
It is not always possible to prevent heart defects since the cause is not clear. You can reduce the risk of heart defects by practicing good prenatal care such as:

Your choice of complimentary quality wines is unlimited during the meal service, and freshly chilled water is also of course always available.A special feature of our Chalet Hotels is a more extensive culinary experience for our guests. With the greater kitchen facilities of a hotel, our professional chefs are able to offer choices of menu at dinner, generally including lighter as well as more hearty options, and always a vegetarian choice for each course. Guests will be asked to choose their evening meals at breakfast for that evening from a varied daily selection. Vegetarian options are always on our 'Culinary Choice' menu in our Chalet Hotels, and are available in our chalets if you advise us in advance.

Back in the old days when NFL players did not make millions of
dollars...they had to haave off-season jobs. You could find the stars of
the league selling stoves at Sears or working in a warehouse...selling
real estate or flacking for a bank. They did not have personal trainers
and chefs on call. They ate bad food, drank hard and smoked. In short,
they lived the life of the average fan. They also were not in the
sculpted, muscle bound shape that current players are. But the game was
still brutal. The equipment they wore was primitive...nobody cared if
you were hurt...if you could walk you played period...you didnt get paid
otherwise. There were no rules against hitting the head, targeting
knees or other vital areas. There was no such thing as a "defenseless
player". And football became the #1 spectator sport in America.
Now we know the fall-out from that period. We know about the dementia and other mental problems that repeated hits to the head can cause. We try and protect players more or a cynical person might say they try and protect their investments more. The equipment is much better. The players make millions and spend the off-season honing their bodies to perfection...and therein lies the problem.
The players today are too big, too strong...too fast. They can cause
too much mayhem for even today's space age equipment to handle. So we
see a constant parade of injuries. Even after the rules have been
changed so drastically that they are now affecting the outcome of games.
I'm not sure its possible to play defense in todays NFL. A cynical
person would say that the league wants high scoring....defense doesnt
draw ratings....and yet they will market big hits to fans that have
become immune to feeling bad unless it's one of their own.
Is there an answer? I'm not sure...the game is changing so
drastically that the golden goose maybe close to bursting. Unless you
just have all players sign waivers stating that they know the risks of
permanant mental injuries and loosen the rules. There would be alot of
players that would still sign up. 10 years of living large in exchange
for a degraded lifestyle or early death...how many would make that
choice? More than you think.
Its a replay of 2004 in the World Series. The Red Sox swept the Cardinals back then but its going to be much tougher this time. David Ortiz and Yadier Molina remain from those teams but its the young stars that have taken over the spotlight. Guys like Michael Waca and Xander Boegarts. It should be an entertaining series and I would be supporting the Sox even if I hadnt been a fan since 1968. The Cardinals just rub me wrong. Their arrogance remains from the LaRussa years and their display of disdain against the enthusiasm showed by the Dodgers just annoys me. Could they be anymore tight-assed? Can anyone outside of St. Louis possibly want them to win??
Congrats to Grace Larrain of Wausau Newman as she brings home a state tennis title. She will lead the Newman squad at the team tournament this week.
The football pairings are out for the first week of high school playoffs. Wausau West gets a home game for the first time in school history. They will host Green Bay Preble on Friday night at Thom Field. DC Everest hits the road to Bayport and Stevens Point is at Appleton North. D-2 has Merrill at Ashwaubenon and Marshfield at Menominee. D-3 includes Antigo at Waupaca, Seymour at Medford and Mosinee at West De Pere. D-5 features Stratford at Marathon, Colby at Amherst. D-6 Has edgar hosting Colfax, Rosholt at Webster, Regis at Athens, Crandon at Iola-Scandanavia at Auburndale at Algoma. D-7 includes Wausau Newman at Owen-Withee, Clear lake at Greenwood-Granton and Port Edwards at Lake Country Lutheran.

The Indiana State Bar's Wellness Committee is excited to launch its first annual "Maintain No Gain" holiday buddy campaign. Holidays typically mean eating additional treats and putting diet and exercise on hold, which leads to weight gain (typical holiday weight gain = 7-10 lbs.). This leads to frustration, negative self-talk and unwanted stress. You don't want that this year, do you? Your ISBA is here to the rescue!
To participate, choose a buddy and register by Nov. 11 with the State Bar by emailing the registration form to firstname.lastname@example.com (late entries postmarked by Nov. 30 will be accepted). The cost to register is $20/member and $30/non-ISBA member. Once registered, you and your buddy will weigh in each week and notify the ISBA via email each Monday. The goal is to gain no more than two pounds from Nov. 11, 2013, to Jan. 6, 2014. Please note: It is not necessary to tell the ISBA, or even your buddy, your weight. Click here for more specific rules!
By participating in this campaign, you get an easy chart to help you document your daily exercise, fruit and vegetable consumption and weight, chance to win a Fitbit pedometer ($99 value), daily fitness tips via Twitter and most importantly - a fresh, lean, mean start to the new year!
A special thanks for Court Call for sponsoring this campaign and donating four Fitbit pedometers for raffle prizes!
