Why rock stars should be nice to taxi drivers
Deceased rock star Michael Hutchence is in the spotlight again.
No doubt the recent mini-series Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story of INXS, which dramatised the rise and fall of one the biggest bands of the 80s and the sad decline of its front-man, is a major factor.
Michael Hutchence, in case you missed the 80s, was the lead singer of mega successful Australian rock band INXS. He died in a hotel room after strangling himself on a doorknob and his partner Paula Yates was often blamed for his downfall. She died a few years later of a heroin overdose.
The rather sordid origins of the Hutchence/Yates affair began shortly after she interviewed him on British TV's The Big Breakfast. At the time, Yates was married to Bob Geldof and Hutchence was dating supermodel Helena Christensen.
The affair shocked and horrified not only their partners but also the British press, who hounded the couple relentlessly.
People could not understand why Hutchence would dump the beautiful Christensen for Yates, who the press described as the ageing mother of three and wife of a British hero.
Surprisingly, I may just have the answer.
It revolves around an extraordinary encounter I had with a furious Sydney taxi driver in the early 90s.
I hailed his cab soon after Hutchence had apparently gotten out. The taxi driver was apoplectic. He asked if I knew Hutchence, which luckily I didn't, and proceeded to rant about the insolent rock star who he'd sooner "run over in my cab than pick up again."
Several years later, Hutchence upset another taxi driver while out with Christensen in Copenhagen.
Was this the very same Sydney taxi driver? Had he moved abroad to escape rude Australian rock stars and was enjoying a nice croissant dipped in hot chocolate until Hutchence got into his cab again?
This irate Dutch (or possibly recently emigrated ex-Sydney) taxi driver knocked Hutchence unconscious after which, according to many, the singer underwent a personality change.
The brain is a fragile instrument and a strong blow leaves lasting damage. This could explain why Hutchence then became erratic, impulsive and aggressive and unlikely to consider the consequences of a high profile affair with Yates.
So it's possible the tragic trajectory of Hutchence's life may have been avoided if someone had advised him to hire a private limo whenever he left home.

That is a shame, and the Milt. is only a few years old, so I suspect it will get a tad taller. As I mentioned to BD"s reply, this Drac. is actually quite intermediate growing and I have had no problems with it considering the ridiculous heat we had this summer!!! and we are now into the fall and no sign of heat abating. Maybe I just got lucky with this one...
Hope you may give them another try, and as far as the Milts you have tried, I too failed with the hybrids from the store, but the species seem to do well for me!! go figure...
Lovely blooms. BD if you really want to try it why not put it inside with the ac if you have it. And use a humidifier, that should do the trick.
Cool flowers! Good growin, congrats. I'd be pretty thrilled too
" beautiful babies! I have the opposite problem in trying to maintain temperatures during the winter.
Thank you for the lovely feedback everyone, and as far as temperatures go JUDIUK... I envy you! I would have a glasshouse filled with nothing but Dracs and Masd and all those little treasures from PNG....
Most can tolerate temperatures down to almost freezing if kept slightly drier and perhaps a little further away from the window sills. The Drac cordobae I have posted a photo of though is a more intermediate/cool grower but why not try the king of Dracs...vampira.
Again thank you everyone, more photos coming soon as the glasshouse is steadily still producing blooms.

UnTour Food Tours

Prices range from RMB471-RMB606 ($70-$90) for adults to RMB236-269 ($35-$40) for kids.

Additionally, Historic Shanghai has done extensive research on the city through interviews, photographs, maps, directories and books. The walking tours are all customizable, with a focus on Shanghai's Art Deco heritage, sacred architecture, revolutionary past, and other often-overlooked but nonetheless integral features of this unique city. Historic Shanghai is not interested in giving participants a shallow overview. Expect to be challenged, entertained and enriched.
Culture Shock Bike Tours
No matter the hour, night or day, Culture Shock Bike Tours promises to change your perception of Shanghai. The popular morning join-in tour costs RMB471 ($70) and takes you down the peaceful lanes of the Former French Concession, where you will discover beautiful 1930s villas and pass by aunties and uncles practicing Tai chi in Fuxing Park. The afternoon promises a zen-like visit to a Buddhist temple, a sensory-engaging ride through an open-air wet market, and a time travel experience to Old Town. The night tour RMB471 ($70), shorter at only 180 minutes, is sure to provide any traveler with unique insight into Shanghainese culture. Not only will you get to visit a traditional Chinese medicine outlet, but you'll also learn about ghost wedding rituals at Yu Garden. Culture Shock tours are recommended for anyone who isn't satisfied with a simple trip to the Bund. By traveling the city like its locals, you're one step closer to understanding this paradoxical paradise.

With a successful debut album, Chris Daughtry takes off as a rock star—but loves playing the family man at home
In case you ever end up face-to-face with Chris Daughtry, here are a few conversation starters: Ask him about Spider-Man (he's obsessed). Ask him about his new band Daughtry ("People think I pulled a Fantasia; no, I didn't drop my first name," he says with a laugh). And go ahead, ask him about wanting to be the next Jean-Claude Van Damme back in high school (seriously, he did). But please—he begs you—avoid offering him your condolences on not winning last season's American Idol. "When I hear that, I'm like, Do people really know how good I've got it?" he says. "My life does not suck!"
In fact, the 27-year-old rocker is riding higher than ever, thanks to his million-selling debut album, Daughtry, a hit single, "It's Not Over," and an upcoming U.S. tour. "He's the real deal," says producer Howard Benson, who oversaw Daughtry, on which the singer wrote or cowrote nearly all of the tracks. "That's why [Idol] is so great: This guy should've been signed when he was 20."
Growing up in North Carolina and Virginia, Daughtry was part comic-book geek, part jock until finding his calling in school productions of The Wiz and Peter Pan. At 16, he joined a pal's band and began paying his dues, later working at a car dealership (see photo caption).
Then, on his way to becoming a rock star, Daughtry became an instant family man. In 2000 he met Deanna, 33, who had two kids from a previous relationship: Hannah, 10, and Griffin, 8. Six months later they married. "It wasn't like, This is cool that I'm a rock guy taking on two kids," says Daughtry, who recently settled outside Greensboro, N.C. "It just felt like that was what I was supposed to do."
These days his biggest challenge is balancing fame and family. "There has to be a lot of trust on both parts," he says of being on the road away from Deanna. "My first couple weeks in L.A., I went out to the clubs. It's a quick 'woo-hoo!' Then it's like, 'pffffft.' I'm trying to put more focus on the stuff that's going to last."

Paternity Attorney in Orlando
If a child is born outside of wedlock, a father must establish paternity before claiming any rights to custody or visitation.
Paternity Laws in Florida
Florida Paternity Law treats fathers differently depending on whether their child was born in or outside of wedlock. In cases where a child is born to married parents, the child is assumed to be the husband's offspring. Meanwhile, in situations where a child is born out of wedlock and no judgment of paternity is entered, the father has no immediate parental rights. In these cases, a father may still pay child support, but the law does not protect the father's custody and visitation rights until a judgment of paternity is issued.
How Paternity is Established
There are two ways to establish paternity in Florida: through a Voluntary Acknowledgement of Paternity form, or by filing a petition to determine paternity in court.
The first option involves both parents signing the document, acknowledging, and swearing under oath that the man signing the form is the child's legal father. Once both parents sign the form, the father's name is added to the child's birth certificate. After 60 days, the acknowledgment becomes final. If either party wishes to revoke the agreement, they must prove in court that the form was signed under the pretense of fraud or usage of extreme force.
If the Acknowledgment of Paternity form is not an option, either party can file a petition in court to determine paternity. A case may be initiated before the child is born, but the final hearing cannot be held until after the birth. Also, whenever a paternity case is brought before the court, the judge may also make orders regarding child custody, visitation, and support. If the judge does not award orders regarding child custody, the mother is presumed to have sole custody and decision making authority.
Why Establish Paternity?
Establishing Paternity can help single mothers get the financial support they need to care for their families. Moreover, children may also stand to benefit from any health insurance, government benefits, and inheritance the father may have.
However, not all cases concern the plights of mothers. Establishing paternity could also be an excellent opportunity for father's who are sure of their biological relationship with their child. It could be the perfect way to secure legal parental rights that would ultimately lead shared visitation and joint decision making authority.
The Law Office of Mark Bakay Helps Families in Orlando, FL
The role a father plays in a child's life is critical to the child's development and well-being. Establishing paternity will permanently form the father's legal relationship to the child, along with their parental rights and responsibilities.
At the Law Office of Mark Bakay, we understand the importance of a father and child relationship. Our founding attorney has years of experience protecting the parental rights of our clients and represents mothers and fathers seeking paternity, or contesting it. To discuss your paternity options with an experienced attorney, contact our office in Orlando to set up a consultation.

Johnny Depp is coming to England, ladies, as the Hollywood actor is reported to be house hunting in rural Norfolk.
According to reports, the heartthrob already has his heart set on a £5.5m Elizabethan mansion called Claxton Manor, which has eight bedrooms, nine bathrooms and four reception rooms.
An agent handling the site refused to confirm or deny that Johnny and partner Vanessa Paradis have shown interest and said:
"We can't confirm who we've been talking to about the estate. We can say that it hasn't been sold. There has been a lot of interest but we cannot disclose the names of any potential purchaser."
He has also been spotted in the area at local pubs and restaurants and even donated signed autographs to a local Brownies group.
The actor, who currently lives in France with his partner and children, has always preferred living in Europe rather than his native America.
We might start checking out the property around there too...

BLANCO, Texas – The University of Dallas men's golf team captured the 2019 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) Championship on Tuesday at the par-72, 6,864-yard Vaaler Creek Golf Club with an 886 (+22) score over three rounds. This is the first-ever SCAC Title in school history for Dallas and the men's golf program. Emilio Montalvo (Mexico City, Mexico) and Erik Hamm (Brentwood, Tenn.) shot a 217 (+1 Par) to be part of a three-way tie for second individually. Jacob Wade (Magnolia, Texas) carded a 223 to tie for sixth.
After leading the field through the first two rounds on Monday, the Crusaders were challenged by No. 7 Southwestern University and No. 22 Texas Lutheran University down to the wire. Dallas scored a 296 in the final round, which was one stroke higher than its 295 in the first two rounds.
Four schools notched its lowest rounds on the final day. That included a low round tournament-best, 284, by Southwestern. The Pirates had won the last three titles and finished tied for second with Texas Lutheran with an 890. Southwestern shot -4 Par as a team to climb back after being 16 strokes behind after 36 holes on day one.
The Bulldogs teed off just seven strokes behind and erased the gap about midway through the last 18 holes played. The Bulldogs trailed by two strokes heading into the last hole when Montalvo for Dallas hit a birdie to secure the triumph for the Crusaders, who also claimed their first top-three finish since joining the league in 2012.

His past seven rounds this month over three tournaments have resulted in a 75 or lower, including four-of-five with a 73 or lower.
Hamm tied the field-lead in Par 5 Scoring with a 4.33 (-8). He also matched the second best Par 3 Scoring with a 3.00 (E) with TLU's Colin Uecker.
Uecker would hang onto his first-place spot that was his at the start of the day and prevail with a 211 (71, 70, 70). Trinity's Peyton Bartee was part of a three-way tie with Hamm and Montalvo with a 217 (73, 76, 68), as he scored the lowest individual round in the final 18 holes.
Montalvo, last week's SCAC Men's Golfer of the Week, followed Hamm on the round with a 73 for one over Par. He was even at Par the first two rounds before coming in with his 10th and final Birdie to clinch the title. He kicked off what would be a historic day for UD with an Eagle and led the team with a 4.17 (+5) in Par 4 Scoring.
Hamm also started his last round with an Eagle, as the Crusaders top scoring tandem gave started the day great after a first-place finish in both rounds to start the tournament on Monday.
Robby Evans (Flower Mound, Texas) recorded the other Dallas Eagle, as seven golfers achieved the feat once in the tournament.
Wade and Seth McNeill (Plano, Texas) each contributed a 76 in the third round to complete the counted scores toward the team final. Wade had started great in the first 18 holes with a 71 to match Hamm with the lowest round score by a Dallas golfer. McNeill carded his lowest round of the tournament to finish with a 232 overall and tied for 16th. His 11 Birdies were a team-best and tied second most in the field.
Dallas defeated three teams ranked higher than them in Golfstat NCAA Division III rankings. The Crusaders checked in at 43 and edged Southwestern and Texas Lutheran, who were in the top-25, and number 41 Schreiner. Dallas also had all five golfers on its squad place in the top-20 individually out of 34 golfers.

The shorts don't have panty lines so they look smooth when work under slim fit clothes. You can opt for high waist ones if you want your tummy to be controlled at the same time. They come in different lengths.
Bras and inners:
I don't know if you are aware of this but you have a number of bra types when it comes to plus size shopping. You have minimizer bras which make your breasts look more firm and are preferred under business wears. Push up bras bring out the hotness by highlighting your cleavage and necklines. You can go for strapless bras with silicone that are best for off shoulder dresses. T-shirt bras are great for daily use.
Full body shape wears, tanks, lower body shape wears are something you should be aware of. Shapewears help to bring out the right balance in your body. A full body shape wear is a great option if you want to wear a slim fit dress. It holds your body together and makes it look even.

Tried the alien fish "Odontamblyopus lacepedii" from Ariake Sea!
Hello everyone! This is Adachi from MdJ. This time I tried a kind of fish called "Odontamblyopus lacepedii", and would like to make a comment on it!
"<So what on earth is Odontamblyopus lacepedii?>
Odontamblyopus lacepedii is a kind of Perciformes Gobiidae fish, and only distributed in Ariake Sea in Japan."
Because Odontamblyopus lacepedii looks like aliens in the foreign film "Alien", it is called "the Alien in Ariake Sea".
Though the appearance of Odontamblyopus lacepedii is quite strange at the first glance, it tastes surprisingly delicious and thus quite popular. Among the selections, dried fish is the best! So this time I tried dried Odontamblyopus lacepedii!
"<Comments on Taste>
Slightly sweeter than niboshi, chewy, it is the perfect snack going with Japanese wine!"
"<General Comments>
What do you think? Don't concern about the strange appearance of Odontamblyopus lacepedii, it is really delicious! Make sure to have a try as well when you come to Ariake Sea."

Ovarian Cancer is called "The Silent Killer" because by the time you know you have it, it is often diagnosed in Stage III or IV. By that time, for many, it may be too late to overcome eventual death. Of all the female cancers, Ovarian Cancer is the most deadly, the most malignant of them. Three-fourths of the women diagnosed in the latter stages will die within five years.
Ovarian Cancer, occuring in one of every 55 women, is the fifth most common female cancer.
Medical personnel say that over 25,000 women in this country will be diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in 1998.
More than 14,000 women in this country will die from Ovarian Cancer in 1998.
The PAP Smear test is for Cervical Cancer and rarely detects Ovarian Cancer.
Because Ovarian Cancer is so hard to detect, only about one-fourth of the cases are in Stage I when diagnosed. The survival rate, when detected in Stage I is about 93%. About 76% of women with Ovarian Cancer live longer than one year after they are diagnosed. 46% survive for five years. Only 24% of those women with Advanced Ovarian Cancer, Stage III or IV, will survive five years. Unfortunately, since symptoms emulate other problems, often thought to be be normal "female problems" or associated aging or menopause, women often make the fatal mistake of discounting their discomforture. This can cost them their life, as it did Faye.
If you have had any of the symptoms listed on the Symptoms page for several weeks in a row, you should be talking with your doctor or gynecologist. If the cancer spreads beyond the ovaries, as in Stage III or IV it may be too late to reverse it.
Who is at risk? Women with a personal history of Breast or other cancers. Those who have a family history of Ovarian Cancer. Exposure to asbestos, and talc. Women who have never become pregnant. Age, although this cancer is known to attack young and old. It is NO respecter of age.
The best way to detect Ovarian Cancer is through regular and thorough pelvic exams. If a woman has a family history of Ovarian or Breast Cancer there are genetic screening and registrys available. Doctors and Gynecologists also need to listen closely to what their patients tell them about their symptoms.
What reduces the risk of getting Ovarian Cancer? Pregnancy and breast feeding. Birth control pills are now thought to reduce the risk also.
How to detect recurrence. Maintain an aggressive examination and CA-125 tumor marker blood tests. The patient should be very much aware of her body and share any symptoms of recurrence with her medical staff.
New organizations have been formed recently to combat Ovarian Cancer. One is The Ovarian Cancer National Alliance, in Washington, DC. Another is the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC), which is active in forming chapters in each state.
What does the future bring in the way of early detection and future treatment? Vaginal ultrasound testing combined with CA-125 tests are being studied. A vaccine is in the early stages of being developed to prevent recurrence. This vaccine is being touted as a way to help the immune system detect cancer cells not now being detected. The use of Plasma LPA (lysophosphatidic acid) may be a marker for Ovarian and other Gynecological cancers. More studies are needed in this area.

On September 2, The Goozex Report ran an article detailing how Too Human hit the Most Offered list 15 days after the game was released. Now, three months later, Too Human can be bought from eBay for $24.99. The Goozex point value has dropped to 950 points and I expect it to keep dropping.
Goozex traders have bought and sold Too Human 173 times since August 23. That's a lot of trades. The frenzy began four days after the game released. That doesn't bode well for the game. It's one thing if the critics pan it, but if gamers grow tired of something brand new after four days, well, that's a whole other story.
Thoughts of a Random Gamer reviewed this game back when it was still relevant. Check out Part 1 and Part 2.
I'm sure I'll still check it out one day, when it's worth 150 points…

Baking cakes has always been a very relaxing thing for me! And whenever there is some special occasion or a long weekend I like to bake for my family, and when they dig into the cake and eat it with a smile on their face… Every effort that goes into making the cake is worth it!!
Ever since my marriage I haven't gotten around to baking much… So as there was a long weekend coming, with festivals in between… I thought of baking this delectable cake.
Carrot cakes are not very popular in India… But I have always loved its flavours… I chose to make a carrot cake cause I wanted to share the recipe with you guys for the coming Easter weekend.

Up to $4,000 in Annual Adult Degree Completion Aid Available
Priority Consideration for Spring Semester Adult Degree Completion Scholarships Ends December 1st
AUGUSTA, MAINE: While it is never too late for Mainers to resume their college educations, the priority consideration for the University of Maine System's Spring Semester Adult Degree Completion Scholarship ends December 1st.
Maine has approximately 200,000 stranded adult learners who have invested time and money into a college education without earning their degree. With funding support from the Maine Legislature the University of Maine System established the Adult Degree Completion Scholarship Program in 2014 to provide up to $4,000 annually to help adults with demonstrated financial need resume their course work and earn a career-advancing college degree.
Applications are accepted throughout the year but the deadline for priority consideration for scholarships for the Spring of 2017 is December 1, 2016. Any Maine resident who has earned at least 30 college credits toward a first baccalaureate degree who has been away from class for at least three years could be eligible for financial support to resume course work through any of Maine's public universities.
Visit Learn.Maine.Edu and click on "scholarships" for application materials and additional eligibility information or call 1-800-868-7000 to get started.
Aid is awarded based on financial need and course load. In just two years Maine's Adult Degree Completion Scholarships have helped 304 adult learners get back on track toward a degree, funding 795 semesters of college completion work with an average award of $1,295 per semester.
Adult Degree Completion Scholarships have been awarded to adult learners from 132 different Maine communities proving that proximity to a college campus is no longer a barrier to earning a college degree. Maine's community-based University Centers, improvements in connectivity, and the development of distance programing gives every Maine resident access to public higher education regardless of age, location, or background.
Specially trained education navigators at Maine's public universities are also available to answer questions and help busy adults with applications, choosing classes, financial aid, and getting the resources they need to balance class work with adult responsibilities.
"Far too many Mainers have invested time and money into an education but had to stop short of their goal of graduating with a college degree," said James H. Page, Chancellor of the University of Maine System. "With the dependency between educational attainment and economic opportunity growing stronger every year, Maine's universities are committed to providing the access, support, and resources adult Maine learners need to realize their goals."

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
Italian Panorama journalist Elisabetta Burba goes to the US Embassy in Rome and gives US officials copies of the Niger uranium documents (see March 2000) that she had obtained two days before (see Afternoon October 7, 2002). [Agence France-Presse, 7/19/2003; Agence France-Presse, 7/19/2003; Washington Post, 7/20/2003; Associated Press, 7/20/2003; Agence France-Presse, 9/19/2003; New Yorker, 10/27/2003] Up till now, the embassy had only received reports of the documents. [Unger, 2007, pp. 261] It is likely that the so-called "Italian Letter," a letter purporting to be from the president of Niger to Iraq's Saddam Hussein confirming the Iraq-Niger uranium deal, is not in the bundle of documents Burba brings to the embassy. [ERiposte, 3/6/2006] Burba meets with the embassy's press spokesman, Ian Kelly. Over coffee, she tells him that she has documents purporting to show that Iraq has signed a deal to buy uranium from Niger, and she needs his help to confirm their authenticity and accuracy. Kelly brings three others into the discussion—a political officer, one of his own staffers, and perhaps a US military official, as Burba will later recall—and moves the entire group into his office. The subsequent discussion is brief; Burba hands over the documents. Kelly tells her the embassy will look into the matter. The CIA station chief, Jeff Castelli, refuses to meet with Burba. [Washington Post, 4/3/2007] Castelli is told about Burba's visit, but is not interested. As the CIA's head of European operations, Tyler Drumheller, will later recall, Castelli says, "This is bullsh_t we don't have time to waste on." Castelli receives a copy of the documents but quickly forgets about them. According to Drumheller, Castelli is "not the most organized guy in the world. And his view was, 'This is the least important thing that's coming across my desk now.' He just made a mistake." [Isikoff and Corn, 2006, pp. 148; CBS News, 4/23/2006] Several newspapers cite sources (mostly unnamed, so it's possible they are all relying on the same sources) that appear to support Drumheller's account. [New York Times, 3/23/2003; Washington Post, 7/20/2003; New Yorker, 10/27/2003] For example, an unnamed senior CIA official will tell Knut Royce of Newsday in July of 2003 that the CIA "had serious questions about [the claims] from day one" (see July 21, 2003). The agency "had accounts (see October 15, 2001,
February 5, 2002,
and March 25, 2002) of them [the letters] and that was close enough. We didn't take it that seriously to begin with.… We didn't put a lot of stock in these reports from Niger. We didn't rush around to get the actual documents." [Newsday, 7/11/2003] The documents are faxed to the State Department on October 15 (see October 15, 2002), and its intelligence unit will quickly conclude that the papers are probably fakes. [Washington Post, 7/20/2003; Isikoff and Corn, 2006, pp. 148; Unger, 2007, pp. 261]

The England international has featured regularly under Jose Mourinho since the Portuguese head coach took over the reins of Manchester United in May 2016.
Rashford burst onto the scene with eight goals in 18 games before Mourinho replaced Louis van Gaal at the 20-time English champions.
While the 22-year-old has played in a lot games under the former Chelsea FC manager, 38 of his 75 appearances in the Premier League have been as a substitute.
Mourinho made the surprise decision to drop Romelu Lukaku in favour of starting Rashford for their 2-1 win over Everton at the end of October.
However, the English talent was once again a substitute at Bournemouth on Saturday but proved his point to the manager with an added-time winner to seal a 2-1 victory.
Rashford has now scored two goals and has made one assist in eight appearances in the Premier League this season.
Former Manchester United defender Ferdinand believes Rashford warrants a regular starting spot in the Red Devils team to continue his development at Old Trafford.
"This [Rashford] is a great talent that needs to be nurtured," Ferdinand told BT Sport on Saturday night.
"Mourinho has given him many, many minutes, but I believe he is at an age now where if he's not starting he'll be disappointed. And I think he's good enough to start.
"In his development now I think that should be mixed up for him. I don't think he's at the point in his career where he's a definite number nine.
"Remember Wayne Rooney played on the wing, a young Cristiano Ronaldo played on the wing. Young players move about a lot and then they find their position."
Manchester United came from behind to secure a 2-1 win over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday after Anthony Martial and Rashford cancelled out Callum Wilson's opener.
Mourinho's side will now switch their focus to the Champions League following a return of four points from their opening three games.
The Red Devils will make the trip to Turin in a crucial Champions League fixture on Wednesday night as Mourinho's men look to secure yet another famous win in the Italian city.
Juventus were 1-0 winners against Manchester United at Old Trafford last month after Paulo Dybala scored a first-half winner in the group-stage fixture.
However, Manchester United can take some encouragement from their success in Turin in the Champions League after Roy Keane and Ryan Giggs inspired famous victories in 1998-99 and 2002-03.

Maternal obesity is one of the factors that have a role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). This research deals with fetal loss in obese pregnant women that might be due the mutation in Janus kinase2 gene (V617F). The main purpose of this article is to explore the association of obesity with JAK2 V617F mutation in recurrent pregnancy loss. This study is carried out on 250 women, the case group with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss and a body mass index (BMI) >24.9kg/m2. Control group consists of women with normal body mass index and have at least one live child and with no history of pregnancy loss. All subjects were investigated for the mutations by using the allele-specific multiplex PCR. Women in the study who were obese and tested positive for JAK2 V617F were 14 %. 9.3% of patients in the case had a BMI with mean of 30.9 ±4.3. In conclusion the study suggests a correlation between the increased risk for the occurrence of RPL in obese women and the investigated V617F mutation in the Jak2 gene exon 12, this research demonstrates the feasibility that obesity could be a modifiable risk factor for that somatic mutation.
Key words: RPL, Obesity, Gene (V617F)

We've heard about a company called Comeback Sports for quite some time and finally caught up with the folks who run this great outfit. If you have ever thought about joining a sports league, but figured you were too old, or maybe too out of shape, these folks just might offer exactly what you're looking for. It really does seem like a great way to meet some new friends around the Tacoma area, and perhaps even burn off a little fat while you're at it.
Tacoma Weekly hit up Dave Mensonides, one of the founders and owners of Comeback Sports with a handful of questions.
Tacoma Weekly: How long has Comeback Sports been in operation in the South Sound and where did it get its start?
Dave Mensonides: "Comeback Sports was established in 2009. Myself along with two other friends started it after we graduated from the University of Puget Sound in 2008. We had heard of other adult sports leagues in various cities around the country and realized the need of having one locally in the South Sound. Going on almost 10 years now, it was the best decision we ever made."
TW: What would you say is the mission statement of Comeback Sports?
DM: "Bringing together adults in the community who want to have fun through a variety of sports, while emphasizing health, sportsmanship, and teamwork."
TW: How many sports do you cover and what are your more popular activities?
DM: "We cover over nine different sports in various formats. We offer social sports like dodgeball and kickball leagues and also have more competitive sports like soccer and flag football. Our most popular activities are easily softball, volleyball, bowling and soccer."
TW: Does the sports offerings change throughout the year? Give us some examples.
DM: "The sports offerings do change throughout the year. Our outdoor soccer runs year-round along with flag football, while softball runs spring, summer and late summer for three seasons total. Dodgeball, bowling and golf are also seasonal."
TW: What sort of ages are you targeting?
DM: "We are an adults-only league. You have to be 18 and older to participate. Our average age is usually around 30, but certain sports favor older crowds, like our softball and bowling leagues.
TW: It's a busy world out there. What is the draw to get people to carve out some time in their lives and join a league?
DM: "Most of the people joining Comeback Sports have either a health/fitness goal or they are looking to meet friends. We have a ton of players that are military or have moved to the area and are looking for a community to be involved with socially."
TW: Do you have to be in great shape to get involved? Is this maybe the sort of thing that helps people pick it up a little bit with their health or exercise?
DM: "We cater to all fitness levels and most leagues have two divisions, beginner and intermediate. We form a house team for every single sport and season we run, that guarantees free agents new to the league a spot on our team."
TW: Any exciting stuff coming up soon?
DM: "We host our annual Party Deck at The Rainiers' game on Friday, June 15th. Tickets are 21+ and include all you can eat/drink and the game. We also have our Coed Classic Soccer Tournament on Saturday, July 14 and Sunday, July 15, which is part of Lakewood's Summer Fest."
TW: Where can folks go and who do they contact to get involved with Comeback Sports?
DM: "You can check us out online at: www.comebacksports.com. You can sign up online or contact us at the office (253) 326-5168. email@example.com."
One of Comeback Sports' league managers had this to add: "When I started working here five-plus years ago, I didn't consider myself a 'sports' person anymore," said Vanessa Eskelin. "But that's what Comeback Sports is all about. I can't imagine my life without my weekly dodgeball and kickball games. It gets me out and moving when I normally don't feel like it and I've met so many incredible friends in our league, I also met my husband in the league. We are all about having a great experience, being healthy, teamwork and most important, community."
Summer volleyball will commence on Thursday, June 7. Men's softball league takes place on Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning Wednesday, June 20. Co-ed softball takes place on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and will begin on Monday, June 18. Summer kickball kicks off on Thursday, June 28.
Get out there Tacoma!
