Walkie Walkie - no walkie...
The Astros have not drawn a walk in their last 69 plate appearances, dating back to the 8th inning of the Saturday Detroit game. Just so you know.

Each year, Maria Fareri Children's Hospital and Westchester Medical Center Health Network invite the community to take steps for a cause at the annual Go the Distance Walk and Family Fun Day. The charity event draws thousands of supporters and is the largest annual fundraiser for the hospital.
The one-mile walk and day of family activities directly supports the hospital's mission to provide children in the Hudson Valley and beyond with life-changing and lifesaving care. This year, three former patients have been named as Maria Fareri Children's Hospital "Ambassadors" for the walk and will lead the crowds on May 7.
Kaylee , 7, of Harriman, was born at Good Samaritan Hospital, a member of WMCHealth, in 2009. Although she was born prematurely at 36 weeks, Kaylee initially seemed healthy. However, after being observed in the hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, she was diagnosed with a rare birth defect in which her stomach and esophagus were not connected. She was quickly transferred to Maria Fareri Children's Hospital, where surgery was performed to repair the defect. After less than one month of recovery and a small amount of follow-up care for a few years, Kaylee is now living life to the fullest as a healthy, happy second-grader.
Kaylee's team, Harper Smiles, will participate in this year's event in memory of her little sister, Harper, and in honor of the more than 20,000 children cared for by the hospital each year.
To support Harper Smiles, additional walk teams, or to start a new team, click here. Participants can stay up-to-date on event news and share their event-day experiences via social media by using the hashtag #GoTheDistance.
Maria Fareri Children's Hospital is located on WMC's campus at 100 Woods Road in Valhalla. The walk will be held rain or shine. Registration will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the walk will begin at 9:30 a.m. An array of family fun activities and carnival games will continue until noon.

10 Most-Read Books in the World
When it comes to books, we are very old-fashioned. The most-read book in the whole wide world is the Bible, undoubtedly the same book our great-grandparents favored, too. But coming in number two is one that may surprise you: "Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-tung," by Mao Tse-tung. Hundreds of thousands of books have been published in the last century, but only a handful have sold millions of copies--and presumably been read by millions of people. Working with Squidoo.com, writer James Chapman, host of "A Passion for Writing," did the research to compile the list of the most-read books in the world, and the result is fascinating.
The top 10 most-read books in the world:
1. The Bible
Consisting of the Old Testament and New Testament, the Bible is a canonical collection of texts considered sacred in Judaism and Christianity as it is believed to be the Word of God. (It's also filled with violence, sex, witchcraft, murder and mayhem and is sometimes used to justify hatred and violence. No wonder it's No. 1!)
2. "Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-tung," by Mao Tse-tung
This collection of selected statements from speeches and writings of the former leader of the Chinese Communist Party was published from 1964 to 1976 and widely distributed during the Cultural Revolution.
3. "Harry Potter," by J.K. Rowling
This collection of seven fantasy novels chronicles the adventures of a wizard named Harry Potter and his friends Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger, all of whom are students at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
4. "Lord of the Rings," by J.R.R. Tolkien
This epic high fantasy novel in three volumes tells the story of the Dark Lord Sauron, who created the One Ring in an earlier age in order to rule the other Rings of Power as the ultimate weapon in his campaign to conquer and rule all of Middle-earth.
5. "The Alchemist," by Paulo Coelho
This 1988 allegorical novel was originally written in Portuguese and later translated into more than 55 languages. It tells the story young of an Andalusian shepherd named Santiago and his adventures in Egypt, to which he travels after having a recurring dream of finding treasure.
6. "The Da Vinci Code," by Dan Brown
This 2003 mystery-detective novel follows symbologist Robert Langdon and cryptologist Sophie Neveu as they investigate a murder in Paris's Louvre Museum.
7. "Twilight: The Saga," by Stephanie Meyer
A four-book fantasy series that includes "Twilight," "New Moon, "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn," this is a romantic and suspenseful story that captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. Oh, and vampires. Lots of vampires.
8. "Gone With the Wind," by Margaret Mitchell
First published in 1936, this historical novel is set in Clayton County, Georgia and the city of Atlanta during the American Civil War and Reconstruction and tells the story of Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler. As the spoiled daughter of a well-to-do plantation owner, Scarlett must use every means at her disposal to come out of the poverty she finds herself in after Sherman's "March to the Sea."
9. "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill
This 1937 motivational and self-help book espouses a philosophy that can be used to help people succeed in all lines of work to do or be almost anything they want.
10. "The Diary of Anne Frank," by Anne Frank
Written from June 14, 1942 to August 1, 1944 and published in 1947, this is the diary kept by Anne Frank while she was in hiding for two years with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands.

Hopefully Bobby Valentine has many lasting images during his time in Boston. (AP Photo)
How I Got Over
By Kris Chandler
It has been two hundred and two days since I last wrote a piece for this blog. The world, particularly the sporting world, has seen some strange s**t go down. My last piece was coverage of the annual Charity Wine event the Red Sox host to promote their various player-inspired vintages. I met Jon Lester and got the chance to watch him and Clay Buchholz talk about what it means to be a part of a charity, and to see the time one volunteers bring happiness to someone's life. How quickly things would change. Buchholz would only pitch in fourteen games in 2011, and would not see the mound after June. Lester's season ended in mediocre fashion with three losses and a no-decision as the Sox collapsed in a rather epic manner. And, of course, we all know what happened next - Theo fled, Tito was run out of town, and Red Sox Nation began to take on the pall of one of the walkers from The Walking Dead.
But as the old saying goes, time heals all wounds. And it will. At 5:30PM last night, the Red Sox officially announced the ascension of Bobby Valentine to Manager of the 2012 Red Sox. In conjunction with the promotion of Ben Cherington to General Manager earlier this fall, the 2011 Red Sox were finally laid to rest, and the organization took the first step toward replacing this past fall's collapse with some fonder memories. While it's a little anxiety-inducing at the moment, I think the changes will herald a new era in Red Sox Nation. I'll reserve speculation about their chances in 2012 and beyond until the new year but, suffice it say, I'm excited. As sad as I was to see two of the cornerstones of the franchise for the past decade leave, I'm equally thrilled to have some new blood to revitalize a stagnant ball club.
I've been considering a post on the Patriots for some time now, but I just couldn't get a handle on who they are this year. They've played brilliantly at times, but have also shown some major flaws, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Brady and Co. have blistered opponents with an aerial attack we've come to take for granted, but have allowed some of the most inept teams in the league to score, seemingly at will. Recently they've begun playing professional defense, but I wonder how far that will take them in the post-season. Their secondary is young and inexperienced, but it has the advantage of being held up by Mr. Handsome and his armada of pass-catching receivers, backs, and tight ends. There is also the distinct boon of playing for one of the greatest football minds the NFL has ever seen. We're entering the final month of the season, five games left to play. If I had to lay a bet on how they'll fare come January, I'd put my money on them making it to the Super Bowl. Just don't ask me if I think they can handle Aaron Rodgers and the Pack.
Apparently, there will be basketball this year. I'm maintaining my role of jilted lover until I see just how the 2011-12 Celtics shape up. I won't get into a big rant about how both the players and the owners are self-entitled pricks with their heads up their asses. I will say I'm glad they finally figured out a deal that allows them to play the game again. Because, for all of the talk about who's taking money out of who's pocket, it's really the fans who've been paying the price all along. The fans, the concession workers, the bar owners who've lost countless business with no games being played to bring people out on game nights. Canal Street here in Boston is a graveyard on nights when the Bruins aren't playing, and it's costing the local business owners dearly. Let's hope they can recoup some of their losses later this month when the shortened season begins.
I've been thinking a lot about sports, and fandom, and what it really means to follow sports in this day and age. I'm an ardent sports fan, and anyone who knows me knows that. I love every facet of sports, from the actual games to the coverage to the aftermath. Some of my fondest memories are of playing sports, watching sports, and writing about sports. I've written before about how athletes are our modern gods, their deeds equaling the feats of the gods of lore. About how we project our own hopes and fears onto them, and allow our own fantasies to play out as we watch them strive to succeed on the world's largest stages. There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, like being a sports fan. We take for granted every day just how lucky we are, especially here in Boston. Not just to have the titles and rings our local boys have accumulated over the past decade, but to live in a town so thoroughly populated by sports nuts. We're all brothers and sisters when the Sox take the field, or the Bruins take the ice. We collectively raise our voices and clap our hands when the decibel meter appears on the Jumbotron at the Garden, and we all leap out of our seats when the Pats score on a pretty pass play from TFB to Wes Welker. If that isn't the very definition of camaraderie, I don't know what is.

Welcome to J.A. Funk Funeral Home
We hope as you view this website, you will see that our organization continually strives to help families in their time of need. We have a commitment to compassionate service and personal attention for you and your loved ones.
We have staff on call 24 hours a day. Please feel free to call us anytime with questions or concerns.
Our phone number is 501 332- 4625 or email at J. A. Funk Funeral Home. firstname.lastname@example.com
The J.A Funk Funeral home, located at 318 Ash Street in Malvern, Arkansas, is locally owned and operated by John Allan Funk and his staff. The funeral home is a full service facility that more than meets the needs of those it serves, and allows its clientele the opportunity to customize the funeral ceremony.
For those who want to arrange funerals in advance of need, the experienced staff is ready to assist in any way it can to ease the burden on a family. J.A. Funk Funeral Home's insurance and prepaid funeral plans are underwritten by Security Plan Insurance Company of Little Rock, which is also a family owned business.
John Allan has spent over 40 years in the profession and is proud to be serving the people of his hometown. He is a fourth generation Hot Spring County native. His late father Bill Funk, who was Malvern's chief of police for many years, was also a licensed funeral director, and helped many families through their loss.
The building housing the funeral home was originally constructed as a mortuary in 1952 by Milton Kidder, a local mortician. It ceased being a funeral home in 1965 and was purchased by the congregation of First Presbyterian Church. They worshipped here until June, 1994, when a lightning strike started a fire. The fire, smoke and water damage left the building uninhabitable and without a roof. One year later the roof was replaced. The building sat vacant for five years until John Allan Funk purchased the building in September of 2000 and began an extensive renovation. Licensure was granted by the Arkansas State Board of Embalmers and Funeral Directors in February of 2001, and operation was begun.
In 2003 a large carport was added that will accommodate at least five family cars. The 140 foot driveway leading from the alley behind the building to Ash Street was also widened and paved. In years to come, the second story, which consists of 3500 square feet,will be restored as an employee lounge area and seperate living quarters consisting of a three bedroom, two bath apartment.
"From the beginning it has been our policy to honor any burial association certificate at 100% of its face value. We will continue to do so whether we recover anything from the association or not. Any questions you might have about transferring to us your prepaid funeral plans from other places are always answered forthrightly," says John Allan. "Also, we DO NOT have an answering service! All our calls are taken 24 hours a day by STAFF MEMBERS, not some out-of-state switchboard that has absolutely no knowledge of Malvern."
Our goal is, and will continue to be, to offer unsurpassed service, top-quality merchandise, and the most affordable prices available. Our staff is all local. It's people who grew up in Malvern. When you walk in our door, you see familiar faces and already know the names. We feel that this is very important, and makes a great deal of difference. We simply want the honor of being your Funeral Director.

A panel of cybersecurity professionals warned lawmakers that voluntary guidelines for securing the nation's critical infrastructure have not worked and that Congress must pass strong cybersecurity legislation that sets basic security standards in order to avoid a damaging cyberattack.
"If we don't do that this year, an attack is inevitable," James Lewis, a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, told a House Homeland Security Committee's Oversight, Investigations and Management Subcommittee during the April 24 hearing.
Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), the subcommittee's chairman, called the hearing in advance of scheduled debate and votes later this week on three cybersecurity bills introduced by Republican legislators.
Related coverage:
Bipartisan cyber bill now the center of partisan turf war
Democrats on the subcommittee criticized the bills as dangerously broad and ineffective because they encourage sharing of information between government and industry without privacy safeguards, do not require security standards for privately owned networks, and undermine the role of the Homeland Security Department in protecting critical infrastructure.
The panel of government, former government, academic and private-sector professionals told the subcommittee that America is at risk of losing its technological leadership and economic competitiveness and that national security is being jeopardized by an onslaught of online espionage and theft. Despite the urgency, however, Lewis was not optimistic about the chances for passing strong legislation.
"If I have learned anything this year, it is that you shouldn't try to move major legislation in an election year," he said.
Shawn Henry, who until this month was executive assistant director of the FBI's Criminal, Cyber, Response and Services Branch, said that networks are not defensible and that operators need to assume that they have or will be compromised.
"The threat has reached the point that a determined adversary will access any system that is directly accessible from the network," said Henry, who now is president of CrowdStrike Services, a cybersecurity intelligence start-up. "They will keep coming until they come in."
He called the drumbeat of cyber crime reports that have been made public "the tip of the iceberg" and that the real threat lies "below the waterline" in the classified arena. "The public sees the tip," he said. "I have seen below the waterline." He said that nation-states are gathering data on our next generation of weapons and are developing capabilities to counter them.
Stephen Flynn, founding co-director of Northeastern University's George J. Kostas Research Institute for Homeland Security, criticized the government for working too much "below the surface" and said greater candor was needed in dealing with cyber threats. "Err on the side of openness," he advised.
McCaul identified China and Russia as our most aggressive cyber adversaries, accusing both of military and industrial espionage. But Lewis said they are not the greatest threat.
"I don't worry about China and Russia," he said. "They aren't going to start a war just for fun. I don't know if we can say that for Iran and North Korea." Both of those nations are working to achieve a cyber war capability, Lewis said, and reconnaissance and attack tools are becoming more powerful and being commoditized by criminals and hackers, lowering the bar for countries that would like to enter the fray. "The greatest threat to cybersecurity in the United States is complacency."
Although witnesses and lawmakers alike agreed on the urgency of the cyber threat and the need for action, there remained divisions on what action to take. Previous panels of private-sector executives have warned legislators that industry needs to be left free of regulations in order to innovate and adapt to changing threat landscapes. But this panel took a different tack.
"At the end of the day, purely voluntary approaches will not get us where we need to be," Flynn said.
"We know what to do to solve the problem," said McAfee Chief Technology Officer Stuart McClure. "It's a matter of getting people to do it."
A Republican task force on cybersecurity legislation last year recommended that Congress take a non-regulatory, piecemeal approach to cybersecurity rather than considering comprehensive legislation that would empower DHS to establish security requirements for privately owned infrastructure. The House is scheduled to vote April 26 on three of the bills resulting from the task force:

Play offense, the first sign of a cyber threat, take it out. I am far less concerned about who the enemy is, as opposed to what types of tools are going to be used to wage this war.
"A Republican task force .. recommended ... a non-regulatory, *piecemeal approach* to cybersecurity rather than ... comprehensive legislation that would empower DHS to establish security requirements for privately owned infrastructure. " Oh, THAT doesn't sound biased or anything. I'm sorry, I must of gone to the Op-Ed page instead of a news article.
The FIPS 199 and 200 are standards. Currently the NIST 800-53 controls are guidelines with impact recommendations. Controls are applied to systems based on a risk assessment which includes the organization's current environment and mission priorities. HR 4257 refers to 40 USC 11331 which appears to make compulsory and binding the control recommendations despite what a risk assessment or mission would require. This would make screen saver a required control in an air control tower, even though it would be hazardous to human life.
How many times does this need to be repeated? Take National Security and major infrastructure/financial comms off the public IP universe already. Never should have been on there in the first place. Hard to exploit through an air gap.
Perhaps Congress should put its money where its mouth is. Channel 1% of both the Defense Department's budget and Homeland Security's budget into open-source cybersecurity tools that would be available to everyone. If the software is free, more people and businesses (especially SMBs) would adopt it, providing the open-source developers make it easy enough to implement and administer. Alternatively, "the best defense is a good offence" would indicate the NSA and CIA should be actively attacking and "virtually" dismantling the sources of these cyberattacks and botnets using the best "white hat" hackers available.

A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts. When that happens, part of the brain does not get the blood (and oxygen) it needs, so it starts to die. Time equals brain loss. The longer you are having a stroke, the more brain cells are dying. The faster you get help, the less serve the damage is.
Stroke is the third-leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of disability. However, research shows the public remains unaware of stroke's warning signs and the need for immediate medical attention. Even if the symptoms subside, call 9-1-1!
Warning Signs: Warning signs usually occur suddenly and should be taken seriously. If someone exhibits one or more of these symptoms, they are about to have a stroke.
Don't wait. Call 9-1-1!
Remember, the longer someone exhibits these symptoms, the more danger they will be in. The chance of a patient having a stroke is 75 percent if one of these symptoms occurs and 80 percent if three or more occur. If you see one of these symptoms, even if it goes away, do not wait! Call 9-1-1 immediately; this person may be having a stroke.
Symptoms of a Bleeding Stroke
Some strokes are hemorrhagic, meaning that they are caused by bleeding and swelling of the brain. The following symptoms suggest brain bleeding:
These symptoms are brought on by a variety of factors. If a person is exhibiting the symptoms above and has a history of high blood pressure or other risk factors, takes blood thinners, or has had a previous stroke or brain surgery, they are most likely having a stroke. Be sure to tell your doctors if you or your loved ones have this history.
Sudden Ending of Symptoms
Although these symptoms will start suddenly, they may also end suddenly. This does not mean that the patient is not having a stroke. Instead, the ending of symptoms means the patient had a mini-stroke, also known as a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA). Mini-strokes lead to a more dangerous brain attack. Patients should still be given immediate medical care even if their symptoms have ended.
When Stroke is not the cause
The symptoms of strokes also point to other diseases. If a patient is taken into a hospital but isn't actually having a brain attack, one of these conditions may be the cause.
Many research studies are underway to help us learn about stroke. Would you like to find out more about being part of this exciting research? Please visit the following links:

UNH ousted by Providence in Hockey East quarterfinals
By MIKE SCANDURA
Special to the Union Leader
Allen Lessels' UNH Notebook: Wildcats have done enough for an NCAA bid
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Now the University of New Hampshire plays the worst possible game: the waiting game.
Because Providence College rallied to beat UNH, 3-2, in the third game of the teams' Hockey East quarterfinal series Sunday at Schneider Arena, all the Wildcats can do is wait and see if they land an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament - as opposed to what would have been an automatic bid if they had captured the conference tournament.
"It's going to be tough," John Henrion said. "It's going to a waiting game, which is nerve-wracking. But hopefully things will go in our favor.
"We're confident that if we get a chance we have an opportunity to do something special. That's been our mentality all year. If we get to Manchester (for the Northeast Regional), I think we'll be ready to take on the challenge."
Providence advanced to play UMass Lowell in Friday's semifinals at the TD Garden. the Friars and River Hawks play the opener at 5 p.m., followed by Boston University and Boston College in the nightcap.
Ironically, the challenge the Wildcats (19-11-7) weren't up to facing Sunday was on their penalty kill, a category where they ranked No. 1 in Hockey East.
UNH led 2-1 late in the second period when the Friars (17-13-7) erupted for two power-play goals in a span of 44 seconds and goalie Jon Gillies (30 saves) protected that 3-2 lead during the final period.
Grayson Downing gave UNH that 2-1 lead at 10:31 during a power play when he deflected in a slap shot from the right point by Trevor van Riemsdyk.
UNH's Connor Hardowa was called for interference at 14:35 and PC tied it at 16:29 during a delayed penalty on the Wildcats.
Merrimack's Tim Schaller beat Casey DeSmith (22 saves) on a slap shot from the left circle.
The delayed penalty then was assessed to Henrion for slashing and UNH's nemesis, Nick Scaracino, scored what proved to be the game-winner at 17:13 when he flipped in a rebound during a scrum in front of DeSmith.
Scaracino, a freshman, posted 7-3-10 totals in six overall games against UNH and 4-1-5 totals in the best-of-three quarterfinals.
"He's a real good hockey player," UNH coach Dick Umile said. "Obviously he got the shot off. I think that's the one that went off one of our sticks. But it was a power-play goal and it proved to be the difference."
In retrospect, Providence was on a four-minute power play considering Schaller's goal came on a delayed call against Henrion.
"They were down a goal and that was a great momentum swing for them," Henrion said. "We did the same thing we always do - trust our guys that are on the kill.
"(Providence) made a couple of nice back-door passes. That's their job on the power play. Our job is to stop them. They got the better of us but that doesn't faze our penalty kill. We know how we want to play and we trust the guys we put out for the kill."
PC grabbed the early lead when Mark Jankowski finished off a 3-on-2 rush at 1:37 of the first with a snap shot from the right circle. But Henrion tied it at 17:07 of the period when he flipped the rebound of a van Riemsdyk shot over Gillies.
"I thought our guys played hard today," Umile said. "I thought we got control of the game. But in a couple of minutes the game turned around.
"They got two power-play goals and that was the difference in the game. I was disappointed because I thought we took control of the game and our guys competed. But it didn't happen."

Paris: Politicians and royalty observed a moment of silence at tombs across Europe Sunday to commemorate the end of fighting in World War I and remember the millions of soldiers who died in that conflict.
Under Paris` iconic Arc de Triomphe, President Francois Hollande remembered the Armistice by placing a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier. King Albert II echoed that gesture in the Belgian capital. Britain`s Queen Elizabeth II, meanwhile, brought flowers to the Cenotaph in central London.
In the British capital, Big Ben rang out to mark the 11th hour, when the truce took effect, and then dignitaries there and around the continent observed a moment of silence.
While November 11 marks the end of fighting in World War I, Britain and, for the first time France, remembered all of their war dead today.
As a nod to the new ritual, the children of two soldiers who died in Afghanistan helped Hollande lay wreaths at several spots in Paris, including a plaque that pays homage to students who defied a German order not to commemorate Armistice Day in 1940, when northern France was under occupation.
Poppies, woven into wreaths and worn on lapels, figured everywhere today.
The flowers became a symbol for the fallen soldiers of World War I because of the poem "In Flanders Field," which describes the blooms growing over the graves of dead soldiers.

Hector Santiago allowed two in five-plus innings filling in for Jake Peavy on Thursday night, Tyler Flowers hit a three-run homer and the Chicago White Sox beat Texas 3-1, handing the Rangers their first series loss of the season.
Flowers' drive just inside the foul pole in left field was the third straight hit after Texas right-hander Justin Grimm (2-1) retired 10 in a row on the day he was named AL rookie of the month.
Adrian Beltre's homer in the second was the only hit through five innings against Santiago (1-1), who had six strikeouts and two walks in 5 1-3 innings. The left-hander made his first start of the season and fifth of his career after Peavy was scratched because of back spasms.

Sooner or later, every mom realizes an important truth: You don't have time to get sick. So it becomes second nature to overlook the messages your body is sending you -- symptoms that would send you straight to the doctor if your kids complained of them. Stomach pains? Just gas, or menstrual cramps. Tired and feeling sad? Must be PMS. Heart racing? Everyday stress.
But some body signals are cries for help. After having a baby, you go through physical and emotional changes that can trigger -- or mask -- certain health problems. And as your kids get bigger, the pressures of motherhood can make it easy to continue to put off your own checkup.
Aches and pains often have innocent causes, of course. But be sure you talk to your doctor if you have any of the following:
Painful Intercourse
If you feel pain at the start of intercourse, the culprit may be vaginal dryness, which usually stems from lowered estrogen levels after childbirth and during breastfeeding. Your doctor may prescribe an estrogen cream or suggest that you use a vaginal lubricant, such as KY Jelly. But if the real reason is lack of arousal, the cause may be a problem in your relationship, which can best be handled by spending more time together or perhaps even seeking couples therapy.
Another common reason for discomfort is a yeast infection, which can cause irritation and pain during sex. Over-the-counter antifungal medications are effective, but see your doctor for an accurate diagnosis first.
If you've recently had a baby and you underwent an episiotomy, you'll heal in one to two months, but you may still feel pain and tenderness, especially during the beginning of sex, for three months to a year.
Pain that comes later in the act of sex, however, may mean something else entirely. "If the start of intercourse goes smoothly, but pain occurs upon deep penetration or thrusting during intercourse, the most common reason is endometriosis growth of uterine tissue outside the uterus or cysts or tumors, benign or malignant, in the vagina or uterus or on the ovaries," says Donna Sweet, M.D., professor of internal medicine at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, in Wichita.
Such problems can be detected during pelvic exams or through a vaginal ultrasound (a noninvasive procedure) or a laparoscopy (a minimally invasive surgical technique in which a tiny endoscopic tube is inserted through a small incision in the pelvic area).
Be sure to tell your doctor if pain during sex tends to be worse right before your period -- that could be a sign of endometriosis.
Of course you're tired; you're a mom! Sure you've gained a little weight -- or maybe you've lost some; ever since the baby, your eating schedules have been crazy. And your periods have been a little irregular, what with the hormonal roller coaster you've been on. What else could it be?
Quite possibly, a problem with your thyroid, a small hormone-producing gland in your neck that helps regulate metabolism.
"It's easy to overlook fatigue and weight fluctuations, since these are so common in moms of young children," says Christine Laine, M.D., senior deputy editor of the Annals of Internal Medicine. But, she says, thyroid problems are not only more common in women than men, they typically surface in the 20s to 40s. They're often discovered after a pregnancy, though it's unclear whether that's a trigger.
Your doctor can diagnose a thyroid problem with a blood test that measures levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). But first you may need to recognize the symptoms. An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can cause irregular or very light periods, fatigue, unexplained weight gain, and/or constipation. It's easily treated with prescription medication -- thyroid-hormone pills.
An overactive thyroid (hyper-thyroidism) may announce itself with diarrhea, anxiety, and/or heavy, irregular periods. Your doctor may suggest surgery, medication to reduce levels of thyroid hormone, or radioactive iodine to destroy the thyroid -- usually followed by pills to replace an appropriate amount of thyroid hormone.
Sometimes, no treatment is necessary. About 1 in 10 women will have thyroid problems after pregnancy, says Dr. Laine. In most cases, they last up to a few months after delivery, and then the thyroid begins to function normally again on its own. So careful monitoring by your doctor is all that's needed.
Excessive Thirst/Frequent Urination
These are common symptoms of Type 2 diabetes, in which the body gradually loses its sensitivity to insulin, leading to unhealthy high blood-sugar levels. The incidence of Type 2 diabetes is skyrocketing, and in women it's often diagnosed in the childbearing years. The main cause is obesity, which can be exacerbated by pregnancy. "Some women gain a lot of weight during pregnancy and don't lose it all, and that excess weight gain puts them at risk of diabetes," says Dr. Sweet. (In contrast, Type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease in which the body loses its ability to make insulin, is usually diagnosed in childhood or adolescence.)
If you developed diabetes when you were pregnant, it usually goes away after childbirth, but you're at higher risk of becoming a diabetic again in later years, says Dr. Sweet. "If you don't eat well or exercise, and you live long enough, you'll get it again." But if you do lose weight and work out during your 30s, you can help prevent the disease. Even if you have diabetes, doing both now may actually clear up the problem. For others, medication may also be needed to bring the disease under control.
Diabetes is easily diagnosed by your primary-care physician through a blood test. But left untreated -- or poorly controlled -- the condition can increase the risk of heart disease, as well as kidney and nerve complications. "That's why early diagnosis and treatment are so important," says Dr. Sweet.
A New/Changing Mole
Caught early, melanoma -- the deadliest form of skin cancer -- is more than 90 percent curable. But if it spreads to the lymph nodes or beyond, survival rates drop below 50 percent.
It's particularly easy to ignore a mole that looks a little darker. That happens a lot after pregnancy, due to hormonal changes. (Hormonal contraceptives -- the Pill, the Patch, NuvaRing -- may also darken moles.)
"Any time a mole changes, you should get it checked by a dermatologist," says Dr. Laine. Follow the ABCD's of melanoma detection when you're keeping an eye on your skin: Look for Asymmetry (an irregular rather than a normal round or oval shape); Border (a wavy, unclear border); Color (multicolored, with bits of brown, black, red, even blue in it rather than the uniform brown of a normal mole); and Diameter (larger than a standard pencil eraser). Plus, if a mole is itchy, bleeding, or painful, have it checked.
Shortness Of Breath
Shortness of breath, especially if accompanied by fatigue, pale skin and nails, dizziness, problems concentrating, or difficulty exercising for more than a few minutes -- these could be signs of anemia. That means you've run through the iron stores in your body and there's not enough for the red blood cells, which carry oxygen to every cell in the body.
You can become anemic if you lose a lot of blood each month through heavy periods, if your diet is low in iron, or both. (Normal blood loss during childbirth may also contribute.) If the problem is due to heavy periods, birth control pills may help.
Your diet may be low in iron if it's short on red meat, iron-fortified cereals, beans, or dark greens -- and you're not taking a multivitamin with iron. A blood test can detect if you're anemic -- or iron-deficient, which increases your anemia risk. If so, your doctor will probably prescribe a high-dose iron supplement.
7 smart ways to prepare for your doctor visit
1. Keep a diary of symptoms you want to discuss, noting when they occur and relevant details -- such as what you ate or drank beforehand, where you were, and what you were doing.
2. Write down questions so that you won't forget them.
3. Know your family medical history -- especially if your parents or siblings had heart disease or cancer. Make notes of your own medical history: the start date of your most recent period, dates of your most recent checkups, pelvic exams, etc.
4. Bring with you any medication (including nonprescription medications and herbal or dietary supplements) that you take regularly, as well as files of exams by other doctors or test results you want to discuss. If you've gotten information from the web or a magazine, bring along a hard copy.
5. Confess your worst fear. If you're really worried that your lower-back pain is a sign of ovarian cancer, come out and say it. The doctor may be willing to do some tests to look into your concerns or be able to quell your fears in other ways.
6. Be honest and answer your doctor's questions fully. Try not to be embarrassed, even if the symptom is personal.
7. Take notes, and ask if it's best to pose follow-up questions via e-mail, a call to the nurse or doctor, or in another visit. Inquire about learning more: Is there a good book or website that the doctor can recommend?
Bloated StomachWell, if lunch was raw broccoli or cooked beans and the bloating goes away in a few hours, never mind. And if you tend to feel bloated a few days each month before your period, that's hormones. But if the bloating is constant, doesn't get better when you have a bowel movement, and tends to worsen over time, see your doctor; it can be an early sign of ulcer disease, irritable bowel syndrome, or even ovarian cancer, says Dr. Sweet. If your doctor takes a thorough history and does a pelvic exam and possibly a vaginal ultrasound exam, he can pinpoint what's causing the problem and treat it.
Most little aches and pains mean nothing. But when something is bothering you, you owe it to yourself -- and your family -- to make sure.
Health writer Laura Flynn McCarthy's last feature for Parenting was "Feeding Your Baby," in the February issue.
What Not To OverlookAnd don't overlook these emotional symptoms...
Of course, we all feel anxious, angry, or down sometimes. But how do you know if your feelings are getting the better of you? If you have any of these kinds of symptoms, it's the right time to seek help, says Ellyn Kaschak, Ph.D., professor of psychology at San Jose State University:
* A significant change in your day-to-day personality. For example, you've always been easygoing, but lately you've been getting angry more easily or feeling unusually frustrated.
* People who are close to you comment on your behavior or say you just don't seem like yourself.
* Disturbing emotions are surfacing more frequently or not going away. If you've been feeling unusually sad, anxious, or mad for weeks rather than for a day or two, make an appointment with your primary-care physician, who can then refer you to a therapist.
Anxiety, depression, and anger are the most common emotional problems, and you can pinpoint each by the following signs:
You may have anxiety problems if...
* You avoid situations, such as meeting with your child's teacher, because you fear you'll run into certain people there. And the number of situations you avoid is growing.
* You wake up often with nightmares or panic symptoms, such as a racing heart, feeling hot all over, trembling, or sweating.
* You find yourself worrying all the time -- even about things over which you have no control, such as whether your child will develop a life-threatening disease.
You may be depressed if...
* You get little or no pleasure out of doing things that used to make you happy, such as spending time with family or friends, or a hobby.
* You feel lethargic.
* You're sleeping or eating more or less than usual, especially to avoid facing your problems.
* You're feeling stressed to the point where you're forgetting things.
* You're shying away from people, even your kids and your husband, preferring to be alone almost all the time.
You may have anger problems if...
* You're yelling at your children more than usual.
* You've fantasized about hitting your kids, stopped yourself from doing so, or have hit them.
* You resent your kids or blame them for things they didn't do -- or can't really help doing.
* You have trouble keeping perspective; your child spills juice on the floor, and as you clean it up, you yell, "You're ruining my life!"
* Your rage is affecting other relationships too.
* You don't get over things quickly; anger builds, even after an incident has passed.
"For each of these problems, even short-term therapy -- ten sessions or less -- can be very helpful. So can, in some cases, short-term use of medication," says Kaschak. Problems usually occur together -- you feel both anxious and blue, or depressed and very mad. Often, treating one negative emotion helps the others.

Amaker has led Harvard to a 92-56 mark in his first five seasons in Cambridge (Gil Talbot).
FAIRFAX, Va. – Harvard men's basketball head coach Tommy Amaker was one of 16 individuals to be inducted into the inaugural W.T. Woodson High School Athletic Hall of Fame during a ceremony held Oct. 6.
In conjunction with the school's 50th anniversary, Amaker, who played at Woodson from 1979-83 and was a McDonald's High School All-American, was honored in the ceremony held at the Fairview Park Marriott. Amaker, who holds a 268-195 career head coaching record, including a 92-56 mark at the helm at Harvard, is entering his sixth season as the head coach of the Crimson.
Amaker, who went on to play collegiately at Duke from 1983-87, was a four-year starting point guard, helping the Blue Devils reach the NCAA tournament four times. As a junior, he led Duke to a 37-3 overall record and an appearance in the 1986 NCAA championship game and was an All-American in 1987 while serving as team captain. A member of the Duke Athletic Hall of Fame, Amaker was the 1987 recipient of the Henry Iba Corinthian Award as the nation's top defensive player.
Amaker began his coaching career at Duke, serving as an assistant on two NCAA championship teams (1991, 1992) and helped the Blue Devils to three other Final Fours.
After nine years as a graduate assistant, assistant coach and associate head coach at Duke, Amaker was named head coach at Seton Hall in 1997, becoming the youngest head basketball coach in Big East history. He led the Pirates to the Sweet Sixteen in 2000, as well as three trips to the NIT (1998, 1999 and 2001).
Following his tenure at Seton Hall, Amaker was tabbed as the head coach at Michigan in 2001. He steered the Wolverines to the postseason three times, winning the 2004 NIT title and reaching the championship game in 2006.
After taking over the Harvard program in 2007, Amaker has led the Crimson to several achievements in his first five seasons. Amaker coached Jeremy Lin '10 for three seasons, who is now a member of the Houston Rockets. Lin was a three-time All-Ivy League selection and became the first Asian-American player to play in the NBA since 2000, as well as the first Ivy League player to compete in the league since 2003.
In 2012, Harvard won its second straight Ivy League title and finished 26-5 overall and 12-2 in conference play. Harvard's 26 wins marked the most in program history for a single season, and the Crimson earned the program's first NCAA tournament berth since 1946.
During the 2011-12 season, Harvard defeated Utah, Florida State and Central Florida to win the prestigious Battle 4 Atlantis tournament and was ranked as high as No. 21 in the national polls, another first for the program. Following the season, Amaker was named the UBWA and NABC District Coach of the Year, as well as the College Insider Ivy League Coach of the Year. Amaker was also tabbed a finalist for the Ben Jobe Award and the Hugh Durham Award for coaching and was selected as a candidate for the Associated Press National Coach of the Year.
In 2010-11, Amaker guided Harvard to a team record with 14 home victories, going 14-0 at home, and enjoyed a 28-game home win streak from Feb. 20, 2010-Feb. 24, 2012. Harvard won a share of the program's first Ivy League title and earned a berth in the NIT, finishing the year 23-6 overall.

The talk didn't start with any mention of leaning in – it started with a pointed question.
"I want to be number one in my field. I want to be the CEO of the company I'm in. I want to run for governor. I want to be president of Stanford University. Stand up if you have ever said that out loud to anyone else. Stand up!"
Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's Chief Operating Officer, smiled as dozens in the crowd of hundreds at Stanford's Cemex Auditorium stood up. The former Google top executive and Harvard University graduate is on a talk tour following the release of her book, "Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead." Tuesday night, she drew many rounds of applause and cheers as she talked about changing the dialogue women hear as they pursue their careers.
She gave the example of how men in the workplace likely hear messages like, "You've got this!" compared to what women hear:
"Don't you want to have a kid?"
"Doesn't your child need you?"
Sandberg says – enough. It's time to lean in and stand up. "I'm here to give everybody in the audience not just permission but encouragement to stand up the next time the question is asked," she said. "I want to especially do this for the women because the blunt truth is men still run the world."
She pointed to government positions as another example. "Women have 20 percent of the parliament seats globally. You may have noticed the headlines I noticed when we got to 20 percent of the senate. All the headlines were about women taking over the senate. Dude, it's 20 percent. It's not a takeover, 20 percent is one-fifth."
In fact, Catalyst, a non-profit research group that focuses on women and employment, found that women make up 18 percent of elected officials in Congress, 14 percent of executive officers, eight percent of top-earners, and just four percent of CEOs.
"Women have held 14 percent of the top jobs in Corporate America for ten years. Ten years of exactly no progress."
Sandberg decided to take her book one step further: Into action with "Lean In Circles." She co-founded LeanIn.org with Gina Bianchini, the founder and CEO of Mightybell, a Palo Alto-based start-up. Bianchini described the circles as "a book club with a purpose," ideally consisting of eight to ten people who are at the same stage in their lives and get together just about once a month. The point, she said, is to
"As we build a community of people who are dedicated to women leaning into ambition, there is no better way of doing it than by looking to your left and right, and pulling people in," said Bianchini, who also used to work at Goldman Sachs.
The issues here to tackle seem aplenty. The Institute for Women's Policy Research found there's been some progress in the gender wage gap in America, but many women say it's not nearly enough. In 1981, the women were making about 59-cents for every dollar a man made. Three decades later, the number sits at 77-cents per dollar. Bianchini said it's a matter of women and their expectations.
"Men always negotiate. Women rarely negotiate. That's where the wage gap comes from."
From salary negotiation to leveling the playing field, there are five videos on LeanIn.org that come directly from Stanford's Clayman Institute for Gender Research. In the last three years that the conference existed, only top business leaders and some Stanford faculty members were invited to hear the professors and experts talk about the aforementioned topics, in addition to some others including one focused on how to capture someone's attention.
"Storytelling is 22 times more effective than just sharing facts and figures alone."
Now, that dialogue is free and open to anyone who wants to visit the non-profit website.
Sandberg's critics have pointed to various "flaws" in her book and philosophy; however, she said she is truly fighting for a better and more equal tomorrow for her female peers.
"We can try to educate people," she said. "Lean In is trying to do that, but the person most likely to correct this for you, is you. It is your seat at the table – take it."

DEA Chief of Operations James Capra said drug and other agents served 150 arrest warrants and 375 search warrants and seized bank accounts in 35 states as part of a seventh-month investigation. Capra said U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have helped authorities seize more than 1,000 kilograms (2,000 pounds) of drugs used in synthetic marijuana, bath salts and other substances that can mimic cocaine, LSD and other drugs.
The drugs, often marketed as herbal incense or other seemingly innocuous products, are marketed to teenagers and young adults in a growing industry that has netted millions of dollars from traffickers, Capra said. Use of synthetic drugs has led to increases in emergency room visits around the country and routinely leads to a dangerous psychosis, he added.
"What they (traffickers) care about is lining their pockets on the backs of young people," Capra said.
Untold millions in profits have ended up in Middle Eastern countries, he said.
"The bad guys need money to fund their operations," said Derek Maltz, who heads DEA's special operations division. "The bad guys need money to … buy their explosives, to buy their guns."
Neither Maltz nor Capra would name the countries or any criminal or terror groups that might be profiting from the sales of the synthetic drugs, citing an ongoing investigation
Agents from Homeland Security Investigations, an arm of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, were also part of the investigation, which had previously led to more than 75 arrests and the seizure of nearly $15 million in cash and assets. Agents in Arizona also recovered a stash of weapons during operations Wednesday.

40 Under Forty: They're ready to show us the wayBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
March 19. 2014 9:33PM
CONCORD — New Hampshire stole a glimpse at its future Wednesday, when up and coming leaders gathered to meet one another.
The event at the Grappone Conference Center featured this year's recipients of the New Hampshire Union Leader's 40 Under Forty designation.
The program recognizes young New Hampshire residents already working to make the Granite State a better place to live.
"It's very humbling, but at the same time you feel a little bit guilty," said Grantham resident Sheridan Brown, 39, an attorney and consultant.
A lot of friends, colleagues, family and mentors played roles in his success, Brown said.
Another recipient, Manchester resident Gene Brown, said he was floored by the well-wishers who attended the early evening event — his grandparents, parents, friends' parents, and his 7th-grade geometry teacher.
" I haven't seen him since I was 13 years old," said the 29-year-old, who is a sales representative for Surgi-Care Inc.
The 40 achievers include business owners and elected officials, a police officer, a teacher, heads of non-profit organizations, lawyers, media professionals, engineers and an air national guardsman.
This is the 13th year the Union Leader, the statewide newspaper in New Hampshire, has named 40 young leaders.
It solicits nominations and then selects group members based on a criteria that includes age, New Hampshire residency and contributions to their professional field, community or state.
The gathering drew nearly 300 people, which included civic and business leaders, previous recipients, former Massachusetts senator Scott Brown and Gov. Maggie Hassan.
"You are great representatives of your generation, and you're great examples of why we need to keep young people in New Hampshire," Hassan said.
Brief remarks also came from Joseph W. McQuaid, president and publisher of the Union Leader, and Citizens Bank Vice President Kathleen Reardon.
The program is presented in cooperation with the Business and Industry Association of New Hampshire and sponsored by Citizens Bank.
Another recipient, Manchester resident Julie Chrissis, 39, praised the event for inspiring young people to volunteer and give back to New Hampshire.
With 40 superachievers in one room, can world domination be far off?
"I haven't heard any plans about that," said Chrissis, a property stylist for Chrissis & Company Interiors. "But it will be hush-hush until the plan is in action."
Any New Hampshire resident of three years who does not turn 40 before Feb. 1, 2015, is eligible for the next class of 40 Under Forty. Nominations should be submitted to UnionLeader.com/forty.

Alabama Tells Courts to Reconsider Allowing Immigration Status Checks in Schools
The state of Alabama is fighting to collect immigration information on new students as well as to keep a measure making it illegal to harbor undocumented immigrants.
The state of Alabama – which passed the toughest state-level immigration law in the country -- has asked the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider parts of two opinions that in August struck down some provisions of the measure.
The appeals court said in August that the student provision of the law, known as HB 56, wrongly singled out children who are in the country illegally.
Alabama was one of several states that passed immigration laws in the last two years on the contention that the federal government has been derelict in its responsibility to control the borders and enforce laws that punish – and by extension would cut down on – illegal immigration.
But Alabama's law stood out from the pack by going much further than other states. Alabama was the only state, for instance, that included a requirement to check immigration data for new K-12 students.
The judges said fear of the law "significantly deters undocumented children from enrolling in and attending school ...." Last fall, educators in Alabama reported countless number of students withdrawing from schools as a result of the law. Religious leaders argued that the provision criminalizing the harboring and transporting of undocumented immigrants would penalize them and their religious institutions, which often lend such assistance to those without documents.
Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley said Monday the state was challenging the three-judge panel's decision to strike down parts of Alabama's law because the court was placing an illegal restraint on state government.
"We are filing this based on principle," Governor Bentley said. "As the Governor of Alabama, I have a duty to uphold and defend Alabama law. Federal courts should not restrain state governments in a way that is contrary to the U.S. Constitution."
Both private groups and the Obama administration had filed lawsuits to block the law.
Immigration advocates and civil rights groups assailed Alabama's move.
The U.S. Justice Department argued that immigration is a federal duty, and that states were encroaching on that.
"Today, the State of Alabama continued to attempt to defend its illegal and immoral anti-immigrant law by asking the entire Eleventh Circuit to consider reinstating the provision of HB 56 requiring schools to interrogate students about their immigration status," said Apreill Hartsfield, spokesperson for Southern Poverty Law Center, in a statement. "The Eleventh Circuit Panel's decision. . .that Section 28 violates the equal protection clause by deterring enrollment in schools, was clearly the correct ruling, and we are sure that the decision will stand."
"We are disappointed that the State is continuing to stand behind this unjust and hateful law, which has brought so much shame and ridicule upon the state."
Alabama did win on some fronts in its battle to implement its own immigration law.
The appeals court allowed some provisions, including one that calls on Alabama police to check immigration documents for people they stop.
In the summer, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld parts of a similar law in Arizona.
Opponents of state immigration laws have argued that many of the laws are punitive to immigrants, result in profiling, and that immigration policy must be steered and enforced by the federal government.

Shin-Soo Choo went 4-for-5 with a homer, scored four runs and collected three RBIs to lead the Cleveland Indians past the Baltimore Orioles 11-5 Saturday.
Shin-Soo Choo singled on the first pitch of the game, and the Cleveland Indians never let up in setting a season high for hits in a second straight game.
This time, they got a win for their effort.
Choo went 4 for 5 with a homer, scored four runs and collected three RBIs to lead the Indians past the Baltimore Orioles 11-5 Saturday.
Shelley Duncan also homered for the Indians, whose 19 hits eclipsed their previous high of 16, set Friday night in a 9-8 loss at Camden Yards.
Jose Lopez had five hits and drove in three runs for the Indians, No. 2 hitter Asdrubal Cabrera had three hits and two RBIs, and Lou Marson had four hits, scored three runs and finished a homer short of the cycle.
The offensive outburst was a welcome change of pace, and the Indians hope to ride the wave of momentum back into first place in the AL Central.
"We don't do it for a while," Lopez said. "Especially Choo and a couple of guys who got three, two hits. Maybe we start today and (continue) tomorrow and a week before the All-Star break."
The Indians stranded 16 runners and went 7 for 22 with runners in scoring position — and it hardly mattered.
"We swung the bat well today, especially the top two guys in our lineup. They set the table the whole day," manager Manny Acta said. "Choo had a great day and Cabby had some huge at-bats, too. Between Lopez and the guys back there, they just cleaned them up. It was important to get all those runs because we haven't been shutting teams down as effectively of late."
Cleveland right-hander Josh Tomlin (4-5), who allowed five runs and seven hits in six innings, rightfully credited the offense for the victory.
"That was the story of the game," Tomlin said. "That's the reason we win the ballgame. Guys came out with a plan and they executed it and kept it rolling."
In the first three games of this four-game series, Choo is 8-for-13 with two home runs, six RBIs and seven runs scored. He reached base five times in this one, including a walk.
"I think the big thing (is) I feel comfortable, comfortable in the batter's box," he said. "I have confidence. I'm not changing anything."
Chris Davis homered for the Orioles, who have lost eight of 11. During the game, Baltimore announced the acquisition of slugger Jim Thome from Philadelphia for two minor leaguers.
The Indians took an 8-4 lead with a three-run fifth. Marson tripled and scored on a two-out single by Choo, who came home on a double by Cabrera. Lopez capped the uprising with an RBI single.
Duncan led off the sixth with his fifth home run, and Choo hit an RBI single for a six-run cushion.
Orioles starter Dana Eveland (0-1) gave up five runs in 3 2/3 innings. He was followed by Tommy Hunter, who yielded five runs and eight hits in 1 2/3 innings.
Cleveland took a 1-0 lead in an eventful first inning that featured an excellent running catch by Orioles left fielder Xavier Avery and an RBI single by Lopez that bounced off third base. Eveland avoided further damage by working out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam.
Choo homered in the second to make it 2-0. Seven of his eight homers have been solo shots.
After Baltimore got a third-inning run on a sacrifice fly by Brian Roberts, both teams scored three runs in the fourth.
Cabrera hit an RBI single, Jason Kipnis chased Eveland with a run-scoring groundout and Lopez drove in a run with a single off the glove of shortstop J.J. Hardy.
In the bottom half, Davis homered with two on to bring Baltimore to 5-4.
NOTES: Before the game, the Orioles unveiled a 7-foot statue of Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver in the picnic area beyond the center-field wall. ... Cleveland placed 3B Lonnie Chisenhall on the 15-day DL and recalled utility player Jason Donald from Triple-A Columbus. ... Indians manager Manny Acta said DH Travis Hafner (right knee inflammation) will be evaluated for a potential return from the 15-day DL after his play this weekend with Columbus, where he is on a minor league rehab assignment.

What went wrong? Was this supposed to happen? Should I throw it out? What do I do now?

Still bubbling
I made a wit with Wyeast's wit yeast. It's been in secondary for 2.5 weeks now and there is still a healthy head in there with tiny bubbles coming up from all over non stop. When should this stop? Is it a sign of something bad? Most importantly, so I need to wait for it to stop before I try bottling? These may be stupid question but in all that I have brewed before I have never seen this. Thanks.

Stop Worrying
No two fermentations are exactly alike. As long as you had proper sanitization procedures, pitched enough viable yeast, in a temperature suited for the yeast you should have nothing to worry about. Too many times brewers don't take the time to make a yeast starter resulting in under pitching which results in a slower longer fermentation like you are describing. This may result in you FG being higher than expected. If this occurs cut the amount of priming sugar to approx 1/2 cup to prevent over carbonation.
Don't rush the batch. You can let it sit for a month with little to no ill effects in the secondary.

The Football Association of Ireland have confirmed that neither Anthony Pilkington nor Aiden McGeady will feature in Wednesday's friendly with Poland at the Aviva Stadium.
Norwich City attacking midfielder Pilkington had been expected to make his Irish debut in midweek, but was forced off injured after just 24 minutes of the Canaries' Premier League tie with Queens Park Rangers. Scans confirmed that the 24-year-old picked up a hamstring strain, with Pilkington taking to Twitter to express his disappointment. "Gutted I can't meet up with the @FAIreland squad tomorrow because of my Hamstring strain! Hopefully get back fit and get in the next squad," Pilkington tweeted.
Aiden McGeady watched from the sidelines on Thursday as Spartak Moscow beat Bunyodkor Tashkent 2-1 in a mid-season friendly due to an ankle injury. An FAI press release stated that the winger will "remain at his club for further treatment," while also adding that "An update will be issued later today should the manager decide to call in any replacements."
