Since Mother's Day is coming up on Sunday, May 10, I figure I'd feature some hot designer maternity jeans, along with a few tips. As usual, I like to feature the deals, so don't fret! It's an exciting time to be a new mom, because there are so many style innovations nowadays. Whether you're having your first child or your sixth, the modern mom doesn't have to dress in tent dresses or look frumpy! And, even if you're not in the market to buy a new pair of designer maternity jeans, perhaps you'll be encouraged by how you can extend the life of your pre-existing jeans and find creative ways to wear regular jeans through most of your pregnancy.
Featured Maternity Jeans
7 for All Mankind, assorted styles $149-$179 (was $210), available at A Pea in the Pod.

True Religion Billy underbelly jean, $169 (was $210), available at A Pea in the Pod.
How to Wear Maternity Jeans
Since most maternity jeans have a belly-hugging elastic fabric that begins from the hipbone on up, it can be tricky to hide the fact that you're wearing maternity jeans, as you may not want to reveal that stretchy elastic fabric part of the jeans. The most common maternity styles are the over the belly stretch material (with an option to fold down) or under the belly. Some maternity jeans have thin adjustible elastic bands on the inside of the waistband, that cinches the waistband; which, in my opinion, are quite uncomfortable and unreliable in terms of keeping your jeans from riding down.
Wear the right kind of tops. You don't have to buy maternity tops! As you may grow tired of always wearing a jacket or sweater over your maternity jeans, the simplest solution for this dilemma is to wear extra long, tunic-length or stretchy shirts, tanks, or camisoles underneath your outfit. Look for shirts that may be appropriate for "tall" or "long torso" women. Make sure the shirt hem is long enough, just past your hipbone or covers half of what would normally be your backpockets. Many thin, "tissue tee" shirts work well as a layering piece. The longer top creates a smoother, polished silhouette, and you don't have to worry about tugging your shirt down all the time.
How to Wear Regular Jeans During Pregnancy
If you prefer not to purchase maternity jeans, you can still dig up your stretch, low-rise or ultra-low rise jeans and wear them through most of your pregnancy, or until it is no longer comfortable. Low rise jeans have a looser waistband (because it is cut to the size of your lower hips) and sit at or below your hipbone, just below the belly. This denim style can offer some temporary under-belly support and allow you to wear regular jeans longer. At some point, you may want to purchase a belly support belt, which is usually a wide, elastic band that can be adjusted below your belly to support and lift the growing weight. In addition, many women can "cheat" by wearing pre-existing jeans, unbuttoned, or extra big jeans and utilize the belly support belt to hold the jeans up. If you decide to purchase regular jeans, consider buying stretch jeans that are slightly loose or low-rise, so you can grow into them. Another alternative is the baggy, loose-fitting Boyfriend Jean. The Boyfriend is in vogue and hotter than ever, thanks to celebrities like Katie Holmes, so you'll be au courant during your pregnancy.

HUNTINGTON-Irene Marshall, age 91, passed away March 28, 2011. Irene was born Jan. 1, 1920, in Black Hills, Colo., to James William and Stella Cora Ethal Sefton Weston. She married Auther Cecil Burnside in 1940. Auther passed away in 1949. She then married Loren James Marshall in 1951, and their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple. Loren passed away on Aug. 29, 1973.
Irene was raised in both Colorado and Utah. She attended and graduated from North Emery High School. She learned the value of hard work by working on her family farm. She passed this trait of hard work on to her children and grandchildren. Irene was an active member of the LDS Church. She served in many capacities including as a librarian, in the Primary, Relief Society, and she especially enjoyed visiting teaching.
Her hobbies included quilting, dancing, canning, gardening, riding horses, and camping. She will be remembered as a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend who was very independent and was always more concerned about others and their needs before her own. Her family was the most important part of her life.
Irene is survived by her children: Patricia Nemeyer of St. George, Sandra Jackson of Huntington, Loren (Merle) Marshall of Huntington, Wayne Marshall of Huntington, and Jerry (Nancy) Marshall of Price; one sister, Stella Ryan of Montrose, Colo.; 13 grandchildren; one special granddaughter, Roberta Candelaria; and numerous great- and great-great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents; two husbands, Auther and Loren; one son, Robert Burnside; three grandchildren: Lisa Burnside, Dennis Burnside, and Jeremy Marshall; and 13 brothers and sisters: Gene, Bud, Buster William, Cleve, Lorene, Ruth, Rowena, Ila, Marvin, George, Henry, Dalton, and Leona.
Funeral services were held Saturday, April 2, 2011, at 2 p.m. at the Huntington LDS First Ward Chapel (115 South 400 East). There was a viewing Friday, April 1, 2011, from 6-8 p.m. at Fausett Mortuary, Castle Dale (720 N. Center St.), and Saturday from 12:30-1:30 p.m. at the church prior to the services. Interment was in the Huntington City Cemetery. Services were in the care of Fausett Mortuary. Family and friends may sign the guest book and share memories of Irene at www.fausettmortuary.com.

Richard Herring: Christ On A Bike!
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2001
This year Richard Herring realised that he was the same age of Jesus when he died. But has he acheived as much as the supposed Messiah? Some would argue not. But one man dares argue otherwise.
Original Review:
Richard Herring's had a busy year - churning out an unprecedented number of scripts for Al Murray's enjoyable Sky One sitcom.
Yet somehow he's still found time to write this top-notch solo show, in which he compares his life to that of Jesus, humbly hinting that he may be the next true messiah.
It's an excuse, of course, to debunk religion - a theme that will already be familiar to Herring's fans, and done in typically droll yet naive style.
But it's a rich vein to mine, and certainly produces a steady stream of brilliant comedy nuggets as the Somerset misfit justifies his own inadequacies by drawing parallels to the life of Jesus.
The tight show's a textbook example of how to structure a monologue, with recurring themes and joke callbacks incongruously incorporated into the bright narrative.
And anyone who can get seven fantastic minutes of hilarious material out of just one incomprehensible page of the Bible - including an impressive, verbatim learning of the opaque text - must be touched by the comedy God, at least
It's a hugely enjoyable rant - although ultimately revealing very little - underlining Herring's place as one of the finest comedy writers around.
Older Comments
Eight years on I still remember this as the funniest comedy monologue I have ever seen. I literally cried with laughter until my sides hurt.
Arthur Klym - 13/06/2004
My son and I saw this in Edinburgh in August, 2001. Being from the US we had never heard of Richard Herring. The show was the most hilarious comedy routine we had ever seen. I wish I had smuggled in a tape recorder so that I could hear it again.
I saw this show at the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 2002. One of the best shows I've ever seen and a wonderful example of stand-up comedy.
Adam Byrne - 28/07/2002
Christ On A Bike rocks!
Gail Dusablon - 16/05/2002
There is nothing funny about the miracles of Jesus and if you think there is you should be ashamed of yourself.
Rachel - 24/02/2002
Totally fantastic I laughed so much I nearly puked.
Stephen - 20/01/2002
LOVED it! Fantastic - go and see it now!
Andyroo Levericki - 12/11/2001
I saw this Saturday night and I thought it was rubbish, but afterwards Richard Herring himself bought the entire audience lots of alcohol - surely this man is the Son of God.
Dave Barnes - 29/10/2001
Seen this twice. It is slick, thoughtful and very funny.
Jon Briley - 09/08/2001
I saw this as a preview in Brighton and it was shite. obviously got much better. No doubt he'll tour it afterwards so will try and catch it again
Jeannette - 28/07/2001
Having just seen a preview show in London, I'd certainly recommend this one. It is very, very funny!

Forward Plus Daily Regimen® is a powerful, 47-in-1 advanced multivitamin formula that gives you total body support every day, all day, for optimal health.

- Immune system
- Cardiovascular system
- Brain
- Respiratory system
- And many others!
PhytoNutrient Essentials® complex provides key health-promoting compounds found in foods
One of the biggest challenges my patients—in fact, ALL of us—face is to eat enough colorful fruits and vegetables every day. That's why most of us take vitamins—to make up for what our diets lack. Even though it's estimated that 42 percent of us eat less than two servings of fruits and vegetables a day, many popular multivitamins may still miss the real breakthrough phytonutrients that come straight from these luscious whole food sources.
To help you make up for the fruits and veggies you don't get in your diet, I've identified 10 phytonutrient-packed fruits. I put them into a proprietary blend of freeze-dried concentrated fruit extracts and whole-fruit powders sourced from the most trusted growers.
All in all, my Forward Plus Daily Regimen multivitamin supplement provides 47 carefully combined nutrients in the forms and potencies needed for optimal health and noticeable results—not just bare minimums. Plus, I include "complete nutrient families" so you get nutrients as they are found in nature.
Plus, get overall eye health protection with the robust formula in Vision Essentials®
As you prepare your body for top health with a powerful daily multinutrient, you'll also want to take special steps to help ensure that your eyes remain healthy and strong. That's why I developed and highly recommend Vision Essentials. With 20 mg of lutein in Vision Essentials, you can be assured the most important areas of your eye health are getting the support they need for…
- Macular health and visual performance
- Light adaptation under low-light conditions
- Protection from oxidative stress
- Protection from harmful wavelengths of light from laptops, TVs, and more
For over two decades Vision Essentials® has been serving the vision health needs of thousands of folks just like you. In fact, in that time it has sold over 4 million bottles. The reason is simple: taking Vision Essentials every day is one of the best things you can do for your eye health.
Good vision health depends on a wide spectrum of supportive nutrients
Vision Essentials includes 20 mg of lutein, a unique Berry Vision Complex, and Setria® Glutathione, a reduced glutathione. Known as the body's "master antioxidant," glutathione is produced by the cells in your body. Setria supports healthy glutathione levels and the optic nerve, lens, and aqueous fluid within the eye.
Lutein is a must-have for your eyes
Lutein is critically important for your eyes. This essential carotenoid has been researched in numerous clinical studies and shown to support the health of the macula, support vision under low-light conditions, and protect your eyes against oxidative stress caused by harmful blue light.
Improved contrast and glare sensitivity in high- and low-light conditions
In a one-year randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, participants received 20 mg of lutein—the amount in Vision Essentials—or a placebo once daily. The group receiving lutein experienced a substantial increase in macular pigment optical density (MPOD) in as little as 6 months and again after a year, as well as improvements in contrast and glare sensitivity, especially in high- and low-light conditions. Having a higher MPOD—often labeled as your "internal sunglasses"—is a key part of eye health as macular pigment plays an important role in protecting the macula from harmful blue light and maintaining crisp, detailed, colorful vision.1
Help maintain the health of your lens with zeaxanthin
Zeaxanthin is another key carotenoid that works along with lutein to support the health of your eyes. Zeaxanthin helps sustain the health of your lenses, photoreceptors, and retinal lining. Not unlike lutein, zeaxanthin concentrations in the macula area of the retina tend to decline as you age. But because your body can't generate zeaxanthin on its own, it's vital to supplement with optimal amounts. Vision Essentials gives you 2 mg of this key nutrient.
Super antioxidant firepower with 300 mg Berry Vision Complex
With its unique combination of black currant, bilberry, goji, and maqui berries, Vision Essentials delivers a potent supply of antioxidant firepower and eye health protection.
Bilberry contains anthocyanosides, which go to work in the tiny blood vessels and capillaries in your eyes, supporting the microcirculation and intricate photoreceptor cells and protecting your eyes from harmful free radicals. Pre-clinical, in vitro studies show that bilberry extract protects retinal photoreceptor cells from harmful blue light.2,3
And black currant, whose water-soluble antioxidant properties lie in the anthocyanins, is important for eye health because the anthocyanins are water soluble and can be incorporated into the aqueous humor—the watery substance that fills the space between the lens and the cornea.
The maqui berry is a superfruit indigenous to the rainforests of Chile and is known for its brilliant purple color, attributed to its anthocyanin content. And the nutrient-dense goji berry brings naturally occurring carotenoids and a whole a host of concentrated antioxidant benefits.
Plus, reduced glutathione, taurine, N-acetyl L-cysteine, vitamin C, and 6 additional vision-supportive nutrients
Combined, these nutrients shield fragile eye cells from the harmful oxidative stress caused by blue light. Zinc, an antioxidant, helps protect the retina, where it's more concentrated than in any other organ, and is especially effective when combined with vitamin C. I also added copper to balance the zinc, and for added antioxidant protection.

Science and Quality
For over 20 years, Forward Plus has helped thousands of people improve their health and their lives. Here's how:
Many multivitamins I've looked at contain lackluster amounts of vitamin C—only 60–120 mg! This is outrageous since vitamin C has numerous studies conducted on its effectiveness and safety. To maintain optimal health, you need 1,000 mg of the ascorbic acid form of vitamin C. And at least half of that should be in buffered form to protect you from stomach upset. Forward Plus gives you both kinds: buffered C and ascorbic acid! In addition, Forward Plus provides…
- Advanced B-complex vitamins for energy, including peak levels of folic acid for homocysteine support
- Powerful, natural (non-synthetic) forms of vitamin E for outstanding support for your heart, cells, and circulation
- Full-spectrum vitamin A, like beta-carotene and mixed carotenoids, to support the health of your eyes, bones, and cells
- Vitamin D, an important nutrient to support your body as you age
Forward Plus contains an omega-3 fish oil concentrate derived from sardines and anchovies caught in the cold waters off South America, where there are significantly less environmental impurities. It contains a high-quality, molecularly distilled fish oil concentrate that is low in heavy metals and other toxins, and will not cause repeating or "fishy burps."
My PhytoNutrient Essentials complex also contains 500 mg of cinnamon, a warming herb that is on the cutting edge of nutritional science. Research suggests it may have beneficial effects on blood sugar and lipid metabolism and that supplementation with powdered cinnamon bark may help maintain healthy blood glucose, triglyceride, LDL, and total cholesterol levels.1
In addition, you'll find lutein in my PhytoNutrient Essentials complex, a yellow carotenoid found in spinach, kale, and other leafy green vegetables, that helps support eye health as an antioxidant. I've also made sure to include resveratrol—a powerhouse antioxidant compound found in red wine that supports the cardiovascular system and brain as well as having anti-inflammatory properties.
This kind of antioxidant power working in your body fights harmful free radicals to help…
- Support healthy eyes, skin, and cardiovascular health
- Sustain a healthy prostate if you're a man, or promote breast, endometrial, and cervical health if you're a woman
- Maintain normal blood glucose levels, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels
- And to support overall strength, energy, and vitality!
Every patient I know needs this kind of support, which is why you'll find this breakthrough phytonutrient complex ONLY in Forward Plus.

Whooping cough enters high school
Officials ask community to get vaccinated
After a Pueblo West High School student was recently diagnosed with pertussis — also known as whooping cough – health officials in the community are reminding everyone to be up to date on their vaccinations and to be vigilant about getting care when sick.
"We usually have a few cases of pertussis in Pueblo County each year," said Sarah Joseph, public information officer for the Pueblo City-County Health Department.
"But there've been outbreaks and deaths in other states in the last three years, so we're seeing an increase in cases.
"We are urging people to be up to date on vaccinations and if they have a cough, to get it checked out in a timely manner."
The Pueblo West High School student was diagnosed last week, and a notice went out to parents, urging them to check on their child's vaccination records and be extra careful with sickness.
"In our building, we are disinfecting and encouraging treatment if any symptoms are present," said Pueblo West High School Principal Martha Nogare.
"We have our school nurse available to respond to student, parent and staff questions or health concerns.
"It doesn't matter if it is one confirmed case or 20 — we take the safety and wellness of our students seriously and handle it in a cautious manner."
Pertussis begins with a cough that progressively becomes more severe until there are coughing fits.
Other symptoms can include vomiting, breathlessness, change in facial color or a "whooping" sound may follow the coughing.
Whooping cough can be severe and dangerous in infants and young children, particularly those without the first three doses (usually given at two, four and six months).
Health officials caution that whooping cough can be easily transmitted to others, through basic daily activities.
Whopping cough disease starts like a common cold, with a runny nose or congestion and sneezing, ore perhaps a mild cough or fever.
But after one to two weeks the more severe coughing can begin.
"Half of teens who get pertussis cough for more than 10 weeks, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Symptoms usually develop in seven to 10 days after exposure, but can be anywhere from four to 21 days.
Any student diagnosed with pertussis cannot return to school until completing five days of appropriate antibiotic.
Tdap is one of the vaccines required by Colorado law for children and teens in sixth through 12th grade.
It is recommended at ages 11-12, or later if missed. Joseph said when vaccinations were updated and changed in recent years, it appears that some students appear to have missed a booster.
Adults need boosters too. The DTaP shot is for children under age 7. Single doses of Tdap are for people age 11-64.
Tdap vaccine can be given at the same time as a flu shot.
"We encourage what we call cocooning," Joseph said.
"Babies under six months haven't had the full vaccine, but they're very susceptible.
"So anybody that takes care of them should be vaccinated to 'cocoon' the baby.
"Also very susceptible are people with asthma, COPD, cancer or other serious health issues that deal with the lungs."
Anyone with a cough that lasts up to two weeks should contact a physician for diagnosis.
More information about pertussis, including an audio file to hear what whooping cough sounds like, is available at whoopingcough.net/symptoms.htm.
Questions about pertussis can be answered locally by the Disease Prevention and Emergency Preparedness Division at the Pueblo City-County Health Department by calling 583-9901.

It's lunchtime and a steady stream of vehicles cruises slowly past Centennial's shuttered Steak 'n Shake. "Do you know when they're going to open back up?" one driver asks.
"I can't wait to get my hands on a Steakburger," another man says while stopping to read signs posted in the restaurant's front window.
Clearly, Steak 'n Shake is a restaurant with a strong local following.
But since September, Steakburger devotees have had to drive to Colorado Springs to get their itch scratched.
That's because a dispute between the local franchisee and the company's corporate office led to the closure in September of Steak 'n Shakes in Centennial and Sheridan.
But last week, the company announced its Centennial and Sheridan restaurants will reopen in late November.
"The company is designing a marvelous grand reopening," Steak 'n Shake said in a written statement.
"Steak 'n Shake's goal is to serve high-quality food at the same great value throughout the country."
Steak 'n Shake corporate will directly manage the Centennial and Sheridan restaurants.
The restaurants in Centennial and Sheridan have been in the headlines recently, shuttered the past two months and now tangled in lawsuits after the franchise owner ignored a corporate directive and charged higher prices for certain menu items.
The two metro-area Steak 'n Shake franchises are owned by Kathryn and Larry Baerns and their son Christopher.
The Baernses opened Colorado's first Steak 'n Shake in Centennial in 2011, investing a reported $4 million to secure a 20-year lease as well as the option to open as many as a dozen Denver-area franchises.
But in September of this year, a judge ordered them to stop operating under the Steak 'n Shake banner. The reason: the ongoing disagreement over pricing.
At one point, the dispute prompted Steak 'n Shake's corporate office to cut off the computerized cash register system necessary to operate the Baernses' franchises.
This summer, a Denver judge stepped into the fray and granted the Baernses a temporary restraining order, forcing the company's corporate office to bring the Centennial and Sheridan restaurants back online.
But after the restraining order expired in early September, the corporate office once again withdrew its technical support and the Baerns family was forced to close their restaurants again.
Last month, U.S. District Judge Raymond Moore ruled the Baernses could still operate restaurants in their two leased locations but the stores could no longer appear to be associated in any way with Steak 'n Shake.
While the two parties remain embroiled in court proceedings, Steak 'n Shake's franchisee agreements reportedly allow the company to assume franchise leases in certain situations.
Although the Baernses' lawyer did not respond to interview requests, in earlier media coverage of the dispute, the Baernses claimed to be losing money because of additional labor and supply costs the corporate office failed to disclose during initial contract negotiations.
Steak 'n Shake officials have yet to comment on the lawsuits involving the Baerns family.
The company's senior vice president of marketing, Jim Flaniken, said in a media release issued last week: "We are delighted to bring an authentic Steak 'n Shake experience to the Centennial and Sheridan locations (and) are committed to providing a consistent experience across the country. No matter where Steak 'n Shake fans enjoy their meals, they can be assured they are receiving the highest quality Steakburgers and milkshakes."
The Centennial and Sheridan restaurants, which are located at 8271 S. Quebec Street in Centennial and 3502 River Point Parkway in Sheridan, will operate 24 hours a day after reopening.
The company is in the process of hiring as many as 140 new employees at both metro-area locations, and former employees can apply.
Steak 'n Shake, owned by Indianapolis-based Bilgari Holdings, was founded in 1934. Today, the company operates more than 500 restaurants, many located in the Midwest and South.

Championship matches set for Ontario and Canada West Conferences in women's volleyball
WINNIPEG - The number-one ranked UBC Thunderbirds and the Manitoba Bisons will clash in the Canada West Conference women's volleyball final and McMaster and Toronto are the Ontario finalists following Friday night's semifinal matches at Final Four tournaments in Winnipeg and Hamilton.
In Winnipeg, the number-three nationally ranked Bisons assured themselves a berth at the CIS championships for the first time in four years defeating the number-four Trinity Western University (Langley, B.C.)

The Division of Wildlife Resources planted 3,000 tiger muskies at Joe's Valley Reservoir on Friday. The tiger muskies were three-four inches in length. Brandon Ivory from the Fountain Green fish hatchery brought the fish to Joe's Valley where they were distributed around the shoreline of the lake by Calvin Black and Justin Hart from the Division of Wildlife Resources. The fish were hatched and raised in South Dakota and brought by truck to Utah.
Hart said they released some tiger muskies earlier this year in Joe's Valley that were hatched at the LeeKay Center and then raised in Fountain Green. They want to raise more of their own tiger muskie in the future to help keep costs down. The fish put into Joe's Valley this week cost $9 a fish.
In May of this year there was a gill net survey of the fish in Joe's Valley Reservoir. There were several age classes of tiger muskie collected with the larger fish averaging 37 to 38 inches and up to 13-14 pounds. Hart said he has heard reports that there are now fish reaching the 40 inch slot limit, but he hasn't seen any himself or any pictures of tiger muskie big enough to keep. When the fish do reach this size you can keep one over 40 inches.
Joe's Valley has become a trophy splake fishery. The Utah chub still infest Joe's Valley and other trout species have struggled to compete with the chub. The splake have been sustaining themselves and have been eating the chub.
The DWR worked for several years mechanically removing the chub, but they aren't going to do that any more and are letting the larger fish hopefully take care of the chub problem.
The first tiger muskies were planted into Joe's Valley in 2009, the first stocking was of 11 inch fish. The next stocking was smaller two inch fish. The funding for these fish came from a donation by Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife, the Emery County Travel Bureau, and Food Ranch. It is a goal to have one adult fish per acre. Hart said they want to be conservative with stocking. The tiger muskie are expensive right around $2 per inch.
The tiger muskie will eat anything and they are eating the chubs as expected because one chub 9.5 inches was found inside one of the larger tiger muskies during the gill net survey. "We have to be careful not to overstock, we want to sustain a great fishery," said Hart.
"We will continue to stock splake from five-eight inches. In the summer the splake really go deep and you don't catch many, but we expect the tiger muskie will still be catchable during the summer months.
"The tiger muskies will help revitalize the fishery at Joe's Valley and will help take those chub numbers down. "If we get those chubs down we can stock with rainbow again," said Hart.
Hart said the chubs are so successful because they reproduce rapidly, can grow large, and they live a long time.
The tiger muskie is a sterile cross between the muskellunge and the northern pike. The tiger muskie has some of the characteristics of both of these fish. The pattern of the tiger muskie is varying amounts of color with vertical dark stripes on a light background. The pattern on a tiger muskie very rarely is the same as a northern pike. The body is deeper than the body of either parent fish, but that is common in hybrid fish. The caudal fins are more rounded than the tails of true muskies. The tiger muskie has 10 to 16 pores on the lower part of its jaw, unlike the northern pike.

Always at the forefront of innovation, Garmin tosses out the idea of a traditional push-button sport watch with the sleek Forerunner 610 GPS. A unique touchscreen interface allows you to scroll through menus and select up to 4 data fields with a single finger, while still functioning in the rain or when wearing gloves. GPS technology keeps track of speed, distance and routes so you can analyze your workout data multiple ways; Special Edition 610 features multicolor White, Blue & Green styling.
*Check out the Garmin Video Vault to see the 610 in action!
Accessories (sold separately)
Comments: I haven't had any of the issues other users have had. I must be lucky! I have had my black 610 for nearly a year, always had accurate and reliable use from it, running 30pmw average during that time in all kinds of weather. Satellite worked great! Unit functions flawlessly! Touchscreen was responsive and easy to use. Love it! Garmin then decided to come out with white 610s this fall. Well, shoot, I wanted white so I just sold my black one to help fund the white 610. I expect the new unit to function as my old one did, accurate & easy & reliable in every way. I am a female runner with small wrists. The watch is definately on the larger side but well smaller than most full function GPS watches out there. Cannot say enough great things about the 610.
From: Jamie, Nebraska
Comments: My firs6 610 stopped charging at about 10 months and went dead. Read all the review about reverse charging - this is exactly what happened. There is a design defect in the power clip. I sent it back to Garmin and they sent me a new one. You guessed it, 6 months later the same problem. For $400 I would expect it to last longer. Finally, the touch screen is not easy to use - not sensitive at all. Can be as frustrating as the bezel on the 405. The two things i did like, the large display is easy to read while running and the vibration alert is nice. I am looking to buy another brand - I have had it with Garmin watches
From: Brian, Raleigh, NC USA
Comments: Lacking Quality Control! I purchased the new Garmin 610 in late July and I'm having the same issue with battery reverse charging. When I looked at the Garmin Forum website there's four pages of people having the same issue. Garmin has known about this issue for months and still has not pulled the units off the shelves. Why would they continue to sell these units when there is no simple fix. This is unacceptable.
From: Anonymous
Comments: I highly recommend that folks stay away fro this watch, at least until Garmin works out all the bugs. I purchased one two weeks ago, and the battery drained while charging. I talked to Garmin's customer support and since it was impossible to get it to charge they told me to return it, but a, replacement would take 4 to 5 weeks. I couldn't wait that long, so I just asked for a refund, and ordered a new one from a different vendor. Surprise, surpise, I had the same issue. Garmin told me to upgrade the firmware on it, which I was able to do before the battery completely ran out, but it made no difference. So, here I am getting ready to send the second watch bak for a refund, and probably will never buy anything from Garmin again. Which really blows because I waited a long time for Garmin to release this watch :(
From: Maz, Clarksville, TN, USA
Comments: Disappointed in the quality of this watch. The pin that holds the strap in place works lose and the watch has come off on a few runs. Syncing with the Garmin ANT software is also glitchy in that most of the time it takes forever for the software to detect the device. There have also been a few times that it has failed to detect satellite.
From: PC, Mckinney, TX, USA
Comments: Got this at the Boston Marathon. It's a great watch, but its a piece of junk GPSwise when compared to the 305 I had for years. Has big GPS problems when you hit the start button, also has multiple GPS glitch points in the GPX path data for most of my runs. It's even told me I was running 2 min/mile pace after 7 miles one run. Stay away from this and get the 305.
From: JV, Long Island, NY, USA

Glasgow are intent on maintaining their fine Pro12 form when they step into the Heineken Cup arena with a trip to Northampton.
Glasgow are intent on maintaining their fine Pro12 form when they step into the Heineken Cup arena with a trip to Northampton on Sunday.
The Pool 4 clash at Franklin's Gardens sees head coach Gregor Townsend take his team to one of his former clubs, set on securing a fifth straight victory in all competitions.
The Warriors have never before beaten an English Premiership team on their own patch, and with the Saints currently leading that competition, the size of the challenge facing Townsend and his troops this weekend is clear.
Townsend, however, is adamant that Glasgow are equipped with both the ability and attitude to claim a Round 1 triumph in the Midlands.
"The start of the Heineken Cup is always a really exciting time in the calendar, he said.
"This weekend we have the opportunity to achieve something we've never done before, beating a Premiership side in England, and although we know it will be massively tough, we travel with confidence in each other and how we want to play.
"Historically, we've not been fast starters in our pool, and getting results on the board early on is crucial to our firm ambition of qualifying for the knock-out stages.
"It's going to take a very special effort from all 23 players to beat Northampton and establish early momentum in the tournament, but this group certainly has what it takes to achieve that."
Townsend's team for the clash shows three changes from the excellent away win over Cardiff Blues last Saturday. Stuart Hogg – who impressed off the bench having recovered from an ankle injury – lines up at full-back, while Ryan Grant comes in at loosehead prop and Tim Swinson starts in the second row.
Glasgow have gone for a 6/2 forward/back split on the bench, testament to the level of physicality they expect to encounter from the Saints.
Meanwhile, Northampton boss Jim Mallinder wants a massive improvementfrom his side after they suffered their first Premiership defeat in six matches against London Irish last week.
"We know we need to get off to a good start in the Heineken Cup and make the most of starting our campaign at home," he said.
"All of the players have worked hard in training this week and are determined to get another winning run started on Sunday."
The Saints head into Europe sitting at the top of the Premiership Rugby table but Mallinder knows that Glasgow are not to be underestimated.
Two of the Warriors' recent victories were on the road in Cardiff and Swansea which has elevated them to third place in the PRO12 standings.
"You don't win at places like the Arms Park and Liberty Stadium unless you are a good team and Glasgow have shown in the last couple of seasons that they are developing into a dangerous outfit," said Mallinder.
"Gregor Townsend has a squad which is full of international, Heineken Cup and Pro 12 experience, and they have followed up last season's Pro 12 semi-final with a good start to the season.
"From our perspective we know we need to get off to a good start in the Heineken Cup and make the most of starting our campaign at home.
"But if we are to get the result we want we know that nothing less than a massive step up from last weekend's game will do.
"All of the players have worked hard in training this week and are determined to get another winning run started on Sunday."
The teams:
Northampton: 15 James Wilson, 14 Ken Pisi, 13 George Pisi, 12 Dom Waldouck, 11 Vasily Artemyev, 10 Stephen Myler, 9 Lee Dickson, 8 Rhys Oakley, 7 Tom Wood, 6 Phil Dowson, 5 Courtney Lawes, 4 Samu Manoa, 3 Brian Mujati, 2 Dylan Hartley (c), 1 Soane Tonga'uiha.
Replacements: 16 Mike Haywood, 17 Alex Waller, 18 Paul Doran Jones, 19 Mark Sorenson, 20 GJ Van Velze, 21 Martin Roberts, 22 Ryan Lamb, 23 Tom May.
Glasgow: 15 Stuart Hogg, 14 Tommy Seymour, 13 Alex Dunbar, 12 Peter Horne, 11 Sean Lamont, 10 Ruaridh Jackson, 9 Henry Pyrgos, 8 Ryan Wilson, 7 John Barclay, 6 Josh Strauss, 5 Al Kellock (c), 4 Tim Swinson, 3 Mike Cusack, 2 Dougie Hall, 1 Ryan Grant.
Replacements: 16 Finlay Gillies, 17 Ofa Fainga'anuku, 18 Gordon Reid, 19 Tom Ryder, 20 Chris Fusaro, 21 James Eddie, 22 Niko Matawalu, 23 Peter Murchie.

The Asics Gel Cumulus 15 is a tried and true neutral trainer – a no-frills shoe that will simply get the job done.
When it comes to everyday neutral trainers, Asics' Gel Cumulus series is a chart-topper in popularity and following. Though a reliable shoe, the 14th version of the shoe seemed to hit a bit of a slump, receiving criticism from longtime fans for a number of reasons, including a ride that felt stiffer and firmer than fans really liked. Luckily, Asics listened, and addressed the predominant concerns in the Cumulus 15.
Testers reported a softer and more protective ride in the newest Cumulus, especially in the forefoot. The reason? A number of factors come into play, ranging from increased shock absorbing Gel in both the heel and forefoot to an upgraded sockliner delivering a premium underfoot feel. Either way, if you felt the Cumulus 14 was too firm, you'll be pleased to try a softened up 15.
Fit-wise, the Cumulus 15 doesn't differ much from the prior model. Expect a roomier forefoot to accommodate a greater range of foot shapes, and a plush, padded heel collar for security. The use of seamless overlays around the midfoot does reduce interior stitching and irritation on the foot.
We see this shoe as an improvement over its predecessor, going back to the cushioned feel that Asics' trainers are known for. If you're looking for a dependable trainer to carry you over the long miles, the Cumulus 15 is a worthy shoe that deserves a look.
"Asics did a good job dialing in the cushioning on this one. It's soft enough to be comfortable but still has a pretty responsive feel."
"This shoe has a fairly roomy fit through the mid and forefoot – runners with high volume feet should take note."
"The Cumulus continues its run as a dependable trainer. This would be a top recommendation for neutral runners just looking for a solid high mileage shoe."

After 30+ years in the financial markets, MoneyShow's Tom Aspray has learned a thing or two about how to stack the odds in your favor and he shares them to help you achieve a profitable year.
The financial media is full of analysts' lists of what will be the best stocks or ETFs for the year. Some have inquired why I don't publish a list each year.
At the start of a bull market you will often find a number of stocks that have completed basing patterns that span a year or longer, which when completed makes them strong candidates to move higher over the next year or more.
In 2009, Neflix Inc. (NFLX) was such a stock as it had been trading between the 2004 high at $39.77 and the 2004 low of $9.25. The monthly chart shows a broad trading range, lines a and b, with key resistance at $40.90, which was the April 2008 high.
The relative performance broke through its resistance, line c, at the end of December 2008 as NFLX closed above its 20-month EMA. The following month, the OBV moved above its WMA (line 1) and NFLX completed its bottom formation at the end of March 2009 as it closed at $42.92.
The on-balance volume (OBV) did not break through its resistance until the end of January 2010 as NFLX gained over 84% in 2009. By the time it peaked in July 2011, NFLX had reached a high of $304.79.
When a market has been rising for almost four years it is much more difficult to find stocks with long-term bases. Even though I do concentrate on monthly and weekly charts, they generally spot trends that last four-six months, but not always a whole year.
Given the volatility of the stock market in the past two years, market picking a list of stocks to hold for the entire year is a waste of time as very few stocks stay in sustained up trends for an entire year.
This chart of the Spyder Trust (SPY) shows the various swings that occurred in 2012. From the beginning of the year, the SPY rose 11.5% to the April 2 high before dropping 11.2% into the June lows as the SPY came all the way back to just a 0.3% gain for the year.
By September 14, SPY was back up over 16% for the year as it had gained 15.8% from the June lows. In just two months, the SPY had lost 9.8% with SPY finishing the year with an 11.7% gain.
From a risk management standpoint, giving up over a 10% gain is a bad habit to develop if you want to make money over the long haul. I feel that these lists can often encourage investors to make some of the classic investing or trading mistakes, which drastically reduces their chances of success. In this article I will propose five rules that if followed in 2013 will increase your chances for a profitable year.
Caterpillar Inc. (CAT) was one of the 10 Best Stocks for 2012 that was featured on CNNMoney. Most of the lists come from fundamental analysts who make their recommendations based on their estimate of the company's earnings or other fundamental factors that they expect will drive the stock price higher for the whole year.

Women: Open debate in the Security Council
Statement by H.E. Herman Schaper
Permanent Representative
of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the United Nations
Open Debate on "Women, peace and security
& the SRSG report on sexual violence in conflict" in the Security Council
NEW YORK, 17 April 2013
Mr. President, Excellencies, distinguished participants,
My delegation welcomes this debate and would like to make a few remarks in addition to the EU statement and other statements underlining the importance of the topic of Women, Peace and Security.
The Netherlands & women's rights
The Netherlands has put gender equality at the heart of all its policies for decades. Internationally, we support female leadership, the follow-up of SC resolution 1325, women's economic empowerment and the elimination of (sexual) violence against women. Equal rights and opportunities for women, and their full participation in society and decision-making, are not only important for the security of women themselves. Women are powerful agents for peace, stability and prosperity in any society.
Violence against women, especially sexual violence, has a huge impact on many aspects of family and society. For example, it is used until this day as a Weapon of War to break down societies.
The Netherlands welcomes the report of the SG on conflict-related sexual violence and supports especially the recommendations on:
1. Enhancing monitoring, research and reporting and putting in place an appropriate mechanism or procedure of the Security Council to systematically monitor commitments by parties to conflict to prevent and address conflict-related sexual violence.
2. Involving civil society organizations and effective cooperation with the signatories of the National Action Plans.
3. Increased attention to the role of small arms as successfully included in the Arms Trade Treaty.
4. Strengthening the role of the ICC as the ultimate resort in fighting impunity against the most serious crimes.
Because of the important role of women, the Netherlands has invested since 2007 in National Action Plans together with civil society organizations, research institutions and other government institutions, altogether more than forty partners. The objective of this partnership is to create an enabling environment in which women are better able to take a leading role and participate in political decision making processes. Within the UN, the Netherlands wants to continue its pro-active role within the Human Rights Commission, the General Assembly and the Commission on the Status of Women. We are also a committed and a long term supporter of the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women.
Practical examples of activities in the field of sexual violence against women
The Netherlands supports many activities between government bodies and civil society in the Netherlands and their partner organizations in the developing countries and fragile states. Let me mention a few examples:
- The serious consequences of sexual and other types of violence for girls' participation in education are not sufficiently recognised. Therefore, the Netherlands supports the UNICEF programme aimed at improving the quality of girls' education in 18 fragile states. We hope hereby to improve the ability of children to cope with conflict and attend school in unsafe areas.
- In the DRC, the Netherlands supports a program focused on medical and psychological help for survivors; prevention and protection against violence within communities; and the empowerment of women. The Netherlands supports the national Women's Fund in the DRC to promote participation of Congolese women in the coming elections. In the Kivu's we support women who can play a mediation role in the conflict.
- Together with Spain, the Netherlands government organises the six-monthly training programme in capacity building entitled 'A Comprehensive Approach to Gender in Operations'. With this training, diplomats, soldiers and officials are better able to operationalize gender aspects in their work in fragile states.
- Finally, with the 'Funding Leadership and Opportunities for Women's Fund (FLOW) and the Human Rights Fund, the Netherlands supports many women's organizations in their struggle to combat violence against women. By supporting the political and economic empowerment of women, their vulnerability to sexual violence will be reduced.
Mr. President,
Today two representatives of Syrian women's organisations participated in a debate with the Minister of Foreign Affairs on Human Rights. They highlighted the role they can and should play in promoting durable peace in a future Syria. It is this kind of strong women that we need to continue supporting.
Thank you.

Headlines (Campus Updates)
Provincial government invests $72.6 million in Lauriers Global Innovation Exchange
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jun 20/11
The Hon. John Milloy, Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities, announced June 20 that the provincial government will invest $72.6 million in the Global Innovation Exchange (GIE) facility at Wilfrid Laurier Universitys Waterloo campus. This is the largest single capital investment in the universitys history.
This signature, $103-million project is an integral part of Lauriers Campus Master Plan. The GIE will allow the university to meet the growing demand for enrolment in Lauriers business and math programs, and expand the universitys ability to deliver integrated and engaged learning opportunities to students at the local and global levels.
This major investment in Laurier is an investment in the prosperity of the region and the province and the tremendous potential of our students, said Max Blouw, Laurier president and vice-chancellor. Government support during Lauriers centennial year recognizes our history of academic excellence and innovation and fosters our purposeful growth into Lauriers next century.
Housing Lauriers School of Business and Economics together with the Department of Mathematics in the GIE will enhance the synergies between Lauriers business and applied and financial math programs and serve as an iconic representation of the leadership role Laurier plays in Canadian business and Waterloos technology industry.
The Faculties of Arts, Science and Graduate Studies will also benefit directly from the GIE, as the new facility will create opportunities through the increased available space in the Arts, Bricker Academic, Schlegel and Peters buildings.
Through the GIE, Laurier will show a new, forward-looking face not only in Waterloo with a bold presence on University Avenue, but also nationally and globally through Lauriers programs and partnerships.
If it is possible for a building to represent a philosophy and a culture, then the Global Innovation Exchange does that. The partnerships that created it, and the future partnerships it will foster, truly inspire lives of leadership and purpose, said Blouw.
For detailed information about the GIE facility, including frequently asked questions, artists renderings and fact sheets, please visit the GIE website. The website will be updated regularly as new information becomes available.

"Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell "
[Apologies to Lynyrd Skynyrd, lyrics ]
Every now and then a patient in the operating room will loose control of his/her bowels. It has happened to a couple of my patients over the years. Two very memorable times. (photo credit and article on the science of smell)
One was a liposuction patient in a prone jack-knife position. We were working on her lateral and upper posterior thighs. My scrub tech was marvelous! She simply helped me clean the patient up while protecting our instruments and open incisions (granted small ones, but open none the less). Our circulating nurse then reprepped the patient. We re-draped, marshaled on and finished the procedure. The patient did great--no problems. I never even told the patient about the event (why embarrass her?).
The second one involved a procedure above the hip bones and was in a supine position. The patient had been allowed to leave her cotton underpants on for modesty. At the end of the case, as we were preparing to move the patient the smell hit our noses. We were an all woman crew. Each worked together. A new scrub tech (being oriented) and I got the job of removing the soiled underpants without getting much on her legs and removing the soiled sheets. The circulating nurse and main scrub tech both grabbed lap sponges with Techni-Care and saline. They treated the woman as if she was one of their grandbabies. Such tender care! All we needed was talcum powder. Bless them! We took the patient to recovery clean and on clean sheets. I had to tell this patient's friend why she would be going home with no underwear.
I write this to praise these women that I have the privilege to work with. No one tried to shirk the work that needed to be done. No one made fun of the patient or situation.
These women with whom I get to work
ARE Marvelous!
(Billy Crystal as Fernando Lamas accent)

A newsletter from oki-ni: The Technical Denim Guide
After weeks of research and trawling through endless sources of denim related information we are very happy to bring you the first installment of our 'tech-ni-cal' section in the form of a comprehensive guide to denim.
Denim and jeans in particular are an endless source of fascination. They have a cult like status that transcends all economic classes and have successfully survived every fashion trend since the first recorded use of Serge De Nimes in 1600s. Denim is an integral part of our product mix. We wanted to create an unpretentious, humble space to pool information on the anatomy, production, care and history of one of fashion's most complex and historical fabrics. In the process we have learnt a lot, we have taught some people a few things and have quite frankly gained a little bit of an obsession with this blue cloth…
We hope that this answers a few of your questions and proves to be an interesting tool for all you denim aficionados as well as those of you that just want to know how much your dry denim will shrink in the wash.
The oki-ni team
oki-ni proudly present our tech-ni-cal guide through everything denim; from the anatomy of a jean, finishes and washes, care guide, the complete history of denim, important mills and laundries and an a-z of denim related information…
Introduced to keep the history of Levi's denim alive by creating exact reproductions of original jeanswear from their San Fransico archives. These authentic replicas are made with historic quality selvage denim from original looms, with non denim pieces are exact sourced reproductions. The ss09 collection, 'Wrath and Dust' is a celebration of the indomitable spirit of America's Dust Bowl migrants.
The Evisu Heritage collection is at the roots of the brand. A super premium denim line following the original Japanese collection and focusing primarily on unwashed selvage denim. The collection evolves each season with the introduction of new fabric developments and fits. Look out for the New Vintage Jean – pictured left – an incredibly rare combination of both left and right hand twill in one garment.
Established in 2002, Atelier La Durance is a small scale, independent French denim label producing top crafted denim. Capitalising on quality instead of quantity, they offer only unwashed denim products of striking craftsmanship..
Produced in Japan,the authenticity of Lee Originals is guaranteed. Rediscovering the tradition and heritage of the brand, the same sewing, cutting and weaving machines as in the 30s, 40s and 50s have been used. All the hallmarks of Lee jeans are evident; cross tacks, hair-on-hide patches, doughnut buttons, Union Worker labels, and Lazy S pocket details to name a few.
Created in 1999 to challenge the blueprint of denim design, Levi's RED is on a constant quest to challenge the perceptions of jeanswear. The label reinterpreting the design features of classics jeans to push the boundaries of contemporary denim aesthetics to their limit. The working uniform of the Amish community is the inspiration from the ss09 collection …
