8.55 pm Players are out on the field, so yayy! Chris Gayle and Tillakaratne Dilshan will open the innings and it is Krishnakant Upadhyay with the ball.
8.50 pm, Update Play will begin at 9 pm. Probably without any reduction in overs.
8.45 pm Ben: "@Abhinav. Ganguly being rested is more because his batting has been poor (certainly worse than Uthappa and Pandey), rather than because he's captained them to losing games. Pune's attention is clearly now turning to 2013 - hence the decision to try Mishra."
Ara: "No Tamim Iqbal again!! He is not that bad to not get even a single game!! Bangladeshi fans wouldn't be happy to see him sit out!!"
James: "Am I missing something, why no Jesse Ryder again!? Pune's bowling is always going to give the opposing team a big score, so surely Pune need more batting firepower to compensate."
Two big surprises I agree, Tamim and Jesse. I am not sure about Ryder's health but Iqbal could have been given a go.
Banglafan: "Yes Ara, Bangladesh fans are really mad at Pune for not playing Tamim at all. He is easily at par, if not better, with the foreign players playing. Wouldnt be surprised if entire BD is hoping Pune loses all their remaining games and sink to the bottom of the table." Ouch!
Chaitanya defends Iqbal's exclusion: "I don't understand what all the fuss is about, there's no way Tamim could get a chance this game since Clarke is a better batsman, Matthews and Smith are valuable allrounders (the latter captaining today) and Alphonso Thomas is a pace bowler in an already weak bowling department. How could Tamim possibly fit in?"
Ryan: "Imagine the comments if fans called for only English captains in EPL football. IPL sells TV rights around the world and needs to decide whether it wants to be global or not." Umm, does EPL have a restriction on having only four overseas players in the playing 11? Besides, the role of a captain in cricket can barely be equated to that in soccer in my opinion. Having a foreign captain isn't a bad idea, just that it becomes more difficult to drop a cricket captain than a soccer captain from the 11.
8.35 pm: Inspection at 8.45 pm. According to NS Sidhu on TV, Virat Kohli wasn't happy with a few damp patches on the field.
RaviS: "Pune wasted an opportunity to mentor an Indian for the role of captaincy - How about Robin Uthappa as captain? Agreed Clarke is not national T-20 captain but why not Angelo Matthews? He's vice-captain of SL team"
Agree with the bit about the Indian captain, with only four overseas players allowed and given that a situation like the one with Bangalore could arise.
Tj: "its good to see ganguly stepping down...but after all IPL is shown as something that helps indian cricket and why on earth a player who is not even a regular in the national side given the captaincy...it is like Uthappa captaining Victoria.."
8.30 pm: Fervent discussions between the umpires, probably to do with the wetness of the outfield. The players seem ready and raring to go.
8.20 pm: The covers are off. There was an area on the outfield though, which was soaked with water. This was some five minutes ago.
Mark: "I wonder how many times we will see the phrase "Virat Kohli and Steve Smith walk out for the toss" over the next 10-15 years #thefutureofcricket." The signs are good, especially with Smith getting a slot in the ODI squad on Australia's tour of England later this year.
Abhinav: "I really dont understand why Ganguly is made the scapegoat everytime. Pune are in this position not because of his lack of efforts but also his team. A couple of games were lost primarily due to Uthappa's poor batting. Manish Pandey seems to be getting worse with every match. Why blame Ganguly??"
Not sure about who's made him the scapegoat, but there is always that blame that comes the captain's way, given how the side has gone this season. Rahul Dravid was sacked after the first season, VVS Laxman lost his captaincy too, so that is probably how it goes in this format.
8.10 pm: The remaining covers are on their way out too, slowly and steadily.
lovenish: "Nothing has worked for the Pune yet. Neither the inclusion of Clarke nor the change in batting order. All their efforts have been fruitless so far. Can the Ganguly's exclusion do the trick for them?" Or probably the rain.
Samarth: "The rain gods have spoken: either the god of the off side plays, or nobody does!"
"I guess we will get to see if the Pune outfield is as good as they claim, regarding the water drainage after rains." A very good point there from Sreekanth.
Vibhash: "I stay some 15 odd km from the stadium. It's windy but open sky. I hope these clouds travle fast to my area, match begins and I get to enjoy this rain while sipping tea in my balcony." So are you trying to say that you will not watch the game? Or do you have your television in the balcony?
8.05 pm: The rains seemed to have stopped and one of the covers, on the outfield has been removed.
Shrikar: "A big step for Smith in a young career, wonder how the aussie captain feels about being passed over for the skipper role." Not sure if Michael Clarke wanted to lead the team. He is not the captain of the national T20 side after all.
Ashish: "Smith would be happy to be captain. Now he can bowl himself..." If one were to be looking at trends, he did bowl a couple of balls last game, so probably Ganguly would have bowled him more this match. Probably not.
7.50 pm: The heavens have opened, it is raining in Pune and we might be in for a delay.
7.40 pm: Wayne Parnell is being interviewed there, which is not such a bad thing given that he is not playing tonight, what is not so good is that there was a bolt or two of lightning behind him.
7.30 pm, Toss: We do have the toss now. Virat Kohli and Steven Smith have walked out for it. Kohli calls it heads, Smith wins the toss and Pune will field first.
Smith: The track gets better as the match progresses, which is why we want to chase. Sourav Ganguly has rested himself.
Many other changes in the Pune side which we will put up soon. Of the four overseas players, only Parnell goes out and Alfonso Thomas comes in. So still place for Tamim Iqbal.
Kohli: We would have batted first anyway, the track may not get better. KP Appanna has come into the side in place of Syed Mohammad.
Right, so contrasting views from the two young captains!
7.20 pm: There were covers on the pitch and the outfield after rains hit the city some time ago. It isn't drizzling currently, though. Remains to be seen whether the toss will be on time.
Bangalore are on 13 points in 12 games and fifth on the points table, a win will leapfrog them over Mumbai to the third spot. Pune have eight points from 13 matches and in all probability, they are playing for pride.
It is the 57th game of the Indian Premier League and Pune Warriors take on Royal Challengers Bangalore tonight. On paper, it is another of those mismatches after yesterday's Deccan-Delhi clash, but with nothing to lose, the Warriors may want to come hard at Bangalore.
I am Suneer Chowdhary and I will open tonight's commentary with some surprising news, not only will Sourav Ganguly not captain the side, but it will be Steve Smith to lead the Pune Warriors! Remains to be seen though whether Ganguly features in the playing 11.
Incidentally Smith had led the Sydney Sixers to a tournament win in the inaugural edition of the Big Bash League.

End of over 18 (11 runs) Royal Challengers Bangalore 149/3 (RR: 8.27)
- AB de Villiers 2 (1b)
- SS Tiwary 20 (21b 1x4 1x6)
- AC Thomas 3-0-31-0
- B Kumar 3-0-32-0
Kumar to Tiwary, FOUR, down the track, pitched right up to the bat, drilled through the extra-cover region for a four!
Kumar to Tiwary, no run, short ball, was going back in his crease to pull it, but misses and Uthappa extends his hands vertically up to take that ball
Kumar to Tiwary, 1 run, outside the off stump, driven to long-off for a single
de Villiers gets strike, will be facing only his second ball and it is eight balls to go. Could he have batted higher?
Kumar to de Villiers, 1 leg bye, slower one, tries to give himself room and pull, misses, hits his pads and they are off for a leg-bye
Kumar to Tiwary, 2 runs, pitched right up to the bat, driven to mid-on but the bowler was late in taking off to field that one, they come back for the second
Kumar to Tiwary, 1 run, full-toss, driven to long-off for a single
End of over 19 (9 runs) Royal Challengers Bangalore 158/3 (RR: 8.31)
- SS Tiwary 28 (26b 2x4 1x6)
- AB de Villiers 2 (2b)
- B Kumar 4-0-40-0
- AC Thomas 3-0-31-0
One more over to go, already it looks like a good score given that the ball is not really coming on to the bat. At least not when you are new to the crease.
Thomas to Tiwary, FOUR, slower ball, waits for it and drills it back down the ground for a four! Splits the long-on and long-off field well
Thomas to Tiwary, 1 run, pitched up to the bat, on his pads, opens himself up for room and drives it to long-on for a single
Thomas to de Villiers, 1 run, outside the off stump, fuller from Thomas, he wanted to drive it away through the covers but mistimes it, driven to long-on for a single
Thomas to Tiwary, 2 runs, on his pads and driven to the deep square-leg fielder, the first one was easy, Tiwary wanted the second, de Villiers did not, and in the end, after a lot of misunderstanding they go for a second, easy run-out had he hit
Thomas to Tiwary, 1 run, driven to mid-wicket for a single, bringing AB on strike
Thomas to de Villiers, SIX, shorter, slower and smacked over long-on for a six!
That is the end of an excellent performance from Bangalore, a score of 173 is always a tough chase but this does not seem like a track where batting will be easy. Of course, Smith had said that he expects the pitch to quicken up later, which could help.
Gayle was his usual flamboyant self and got a half-century and after a slow start, even Dilshan hit a 50. Lot of people asking why de Villiers does not bat earlier given his form and it beats me too. Still Tiwary did a decent job for his 36 and in propelling the side to where they got in the end.
End of over 20 (15 runs) Royal Challengers Bangalore 173/3
- AB de Villiers 9 (4b 1x6)
- SS Tiwary 36 (30b 3x4 1x6)
- AC Thomas 4-0-46-0
- B Kumar 4-0-40-0

Last week, we learned that the government doesn't understand crisis communications.
The Daily Telegraph's reporters had discovered potentially embarrassing details of Maria Miller MP's expenses. The response of Ms Miller's office? Her special adviser allegedly told one of the reporters that: "Maria has obviously been having quite a lot of editors' meetings around Leveson at the moment. So I am just going to kind of flag up that connection for you to think about".
The Telegraph, reasonably, took that to be a threat: don't print the story or we'll regulate the hell out of you. The government denies that this was the intention of the words used.
The adviser then rang the newspaper group's head of public affairs to complain.
The result of all this? The story was not dropped, and the special adviser's actions were reported as well.
In Westminster, this sort of "Thick of It" approach is too common – and it backfires.
The quality end of public relations industry has decades of knowledge about dealing with a crisis. For example, in the 1930s, A. H. Wiggin, Chairman of the Chase National Bank, ordered Ivy Lee, the founder of modern public relations, to get a newspaper to kill a story. "I won't do anything of the sort," Lee replied. His advice, instead, was to issue a statement so that their side of the story would be aired.
But in Westminster, so much of the PR machine is amateur. It believes that spin and bully tactics will work. These carry on because Westminster is short-term, but it damages the public's faith in politics and leaves politicians with reputations that are tarnished.

Russia Overtakes Saudi Arabia as Worlds Leading Oil Producer OPEC
tatistics recently published by the oil cartel OPEC show that Russia is currently extracting more oil than Saudi Arabia, making it the biggest producer of black gold in the world, the British Financial Times reported on Wednesday, Aug. 23.
OPEC statistics show that in the period since 2002 Russian companies have surpassed the Saudis as the worlds biggest oil producers on an on-and-off basis. The latest figures, however, have been hailed in Russia as evidence that such periodic production spikes are no one-offs and that Moscow really does have a right to lay claim to the number one spot.
According to OPEC, in June 2006 Russia extracted 9.236 million barrels of oil, which is 46,000 barrels more than Saudi Arabia. The statistics also showed that Russian production in the first half of this year increased to 235.8 million tons, a year-on-year improvement of 2.3 percent.
Traditionally, Saudi Arabia has been regarded as the worlds undisputed primary source of oil and Russia has had to settle for second place. But in recent years Russia has re-nationalized and modernized much of its industry and that policy now appears to be paying off.
Even Russian analysts concede that Moscows cause is helped by the fact that Saudi Arabia is subject to OPEC output restrictions.
The Saudis are famous for their ability to access spare capacity and raise production at short notice and if they really wanted to reassert their leadership role the feeling is they could do so easily.
Unconcerned by such details, Russias toppling of the Saudis was welcomed domestically on Tuesday, Aug. 22. The populist Komsomolskaya Pravda daily newspaper ran a story headlined Russia takes first place in oil output rankings.
With oil prices hovering above $70 a barrel for London Brent crude because of uncertainty over Iranian supplies and BPs pipeline crisis in Alaska, Russia is enjoying an unprecedented bonanza. But analysts say its oil industry is already working close to capacity and that it will be able to manage output increases of up to only 2 percent a year between now and 2009.
There are also fears that Russia is becoming too addicted to what politicians call the oil needle, and is doing too little to develop future revenue streams. Money from oil and gas accounts for 52.2 percent of all revenues to the state treasury and more than 35 percent of Russias exports.
Such riches can make a country complacent, according to Alexei Kudrin, the Russian Finance Minister. At present, we are in a dangerously carefree zone, he said recently.

If you read back into history, Russia was always huge with oil. Its just been a matter of time until they got rolling again. They just suck at distribution because they had no means to efficiently get it to the ports that service the western worlds from where the fields are and had to deal with both political and infrastructure issues for decades. I recall reading about the construction of a new pipeline to the western ports, but have not heard about it in some time.

Target: Courts of Rhode Island
Goal: Ask Rhode Island courts to enforce every animal cruelty case that reaches conviction
The Animal Legal Defense Fund recently ranked Rhode Island ninth among all U.S. states in animal protection laws. This seemingly good news should excite all animal activists in the area, yet many are more upset than ever about the current state of affairs. The cofounder and director of Defenders of Animals in Rhode Island, Dennis Tabella, voiced concern about the laws: "Nobody in the animal-rights movement is going to be satisfied with where we are." With the present laws in place, those guilty of animal cruelty are more often than not dealt out punishment befitting of their crimes, but sadly, these charges are not always enforced. Join with animal rights protesters and fight for Rhode Island courts to be consistent with punishment and enforce every charge they give to those guilty of cruelty charges.
When it comes to animal protection, even top ranking states must alter the way that laws are enforced. At present, the problem lies in the inability of Rhode Island courts, among many others, to carry out the given charges. Such inconsistencies occur even on large scales resulting in the loss of money that should be given to help animals. In the past, judges have awarded fines to agencies that perpetuate abuse, such as those engaged in the puppy mill business, but failed to collect the money that should go to shelters to provide for the puppies saved from the mill. Instead of the courts or other authorities ensuring the charges have been paid, the responsibility falls on shelters and non-profits that do not always have the power or know-how to collect the fees. Because of this, hundreds of thousands of dollars that were meant to go to animal services to care for animals and prevent future cases of abuse have gone to waste. These cases illustrate the problem of the present court system; a system of law is only as strong as its enforcement.
An appeal must be sent to the courts to alert them to the severity of inconsistent enforcement and uneven penalties. Such problems can ensure that animal abusers will continue on their paths of cruelty without fear that justice will be served for their misdeeds. It should not be the duty of shelters or non-profits to collect fees. Petition against incongruity in Rhode Island courtrooms and demand that each and every case of abuse that reaches a charge is enforced. If it is not, the law means nothing.
Dear Courts of Rhode Island,
While it is commendable that your state is ranked ninth in the country for animal protection laws, there is need to improve the inconsistent enforcement that allows animal abusers to escape punishment entirely. Sadly, many cases of cruelty never make it to the courtroom, but those that do and result in fines are sometimes not enforced. This incongruity provides animal abusers with the potential to re-commit terrible acts of cruelty without fear they will be charged in any way. It is your responsibility to enforce these laws and not the responsibility of shelters and non-profits.
It is vital that punishment in every case of conviction be enforced for the sake of all animals. It is unjust to allow animal cruelty to go unpunished, but also harmful to let abusive people and corporations continue to practice violence within their communities. Those that abuse animals are no friends to humankind. I implore you to take action in every case of cruelty and ensure that those guilty of it not only receive proper charges, but make certain that such charges are carried out.

Customer review on 09/03/2007
Another lovely Maisy book for the little ones. Very simplistic writing and simplistic pictures, which I believe is half the appeal. My boys are 26 months and loved tihs book (and all the Maisy books to be honest). It's a great size for little hands. The paper pages are reasonably sturdy but if you have a little one who likes to rip or isn't very gentle with books, I would say buy this when they're a little older ;-)

The various factors and steps associated with the recruitment process in among the different organizations are gaining increasing importance as the post globalized scenario slowly sets in on all the nations of the world. The job market is becoming more and more competitive in every sector with the major shifts being witnessed in this regard to such things as the attitude of the employers from the traditional one's who sought candidates with strong academic records and professional experience and also the ones that had the most impressive facts and figures their resume.
Today as with other sectors of life other aspects of life, the HR departments of most organizations, even in case of an official recruitment of a candidate for a particular job, are more interested in the employees ability for prevention rather than the core substance.
Since the entire decision of the authorities to call a candidate for an interview is largely dependent o the contents of the resume and how it's able to its influence on the relevant hiring personnel, it's therefore no wonder that the world has suddenly woken up to the importance of a properly written and well presented resume as the first significant step in the entire procedure as the.
There are two main types of resumes that are broadly in use today among the candidates and job seekers and are also recognized by organizations and concerned authorities. It is usual for one to pass recruitment as a fresh entrant into the job market without much of an experience of work.

Of course, very old Sydney town nearly folded itself, the colony having almost starved to death in the early years after the settlement's foundation in 1788. So, aspects of the early history of Sydney are certainly compelling and marketable.
I last visited Old Sydney Town as a child and enjoyed it (sort of), especially the now passe floggings which became the backbone, as it were, of the business, perhaps at the expense of the attraction's other features.
However, the attempt to re-create Sydney Harbour in the middle of the Central Coast shrub, even in my tender years, did strike me at the time as a trifle ambitious.
Old Sydney Town's operators blame the closure partly on what they call the "instant gratification" generation that demands computer games and thrill-rides, rather than a leisurely stroll through history.
But how does that explain the comparative success of Sovereign Hill in Victoria? I've never felt compelled to return to Old Sydney Town but have enthusiastically revisited Sovereign Hill, the recreation of 19th century Ballarat during the gold rush.
It's become near enough to a national icon, a showpiece that oozes pride the moment you enter it.
Ballarat, and for that matter, Victorians, have embraced Sovereign Hill in a manner that Sydneysiders never did with Old Sydney Town. What really went wrong?
Perhaps the concept of the park could be revived some time in the future closer to the newer Sydney town, even though another venture that sought to celebrate the city's history, The Story of Sydney at The Rocks, met a similar fate some years ago.
In the meantime we'll watch the latest, forthcoming resurrection of Luna Park with the nervous anticipation of a convict awaiting the cat-o'-nine-tails. Let's hope it's not as piss-weak as the other attempts to revive the harbourside fun-fair.

"Thigh Gap:" A Dangerous New Trend
GAINESVILLE- From Twiggy to Adele, celebrities sometimes offer very different standards of what society says is beautiful.
But being skinny has always been a dangerous struggle for teenagers.
TV20's Alex de Armas tells us about a new benchmark that may raise the stakes-- and the danger.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 10 million men and women suffer from eating disorders or other dietary conditions.
Now a new trend might be a result of social media.
Flat stomachs, defined collar bones , and thin arms: these are common signs of what society calls "skinny."
"A lot of girls are really sub-conscience about the way they look," said high school student Danielle Franklin.
Franklin hears girls in school talking about their weight quite often, some maybe talking about what ABC News is calling the latest skinny trend… "thigh gap."
"A thigh gap is the space that occurs between two thighs when someone stands up," said Roxanne H, a registered dietitian for the Eating Disorder Recovery Center at UF and Shands.
Hartman is a registered dietitian and says some girls have a natural gap in between their thighs, but most of the time its associated with an eating disorder.
"Unfortunately in the field that I work in with eating disorders it is something that we see white frequently at least as something that people are striving for," said Hartman.
With all the movies, models on the runway and pressure from friends and family, its sometimes hard to ignore the messages.
But what's different with today's teenage generation that wasn't around twiggy's time?... social media.
"Especially in the eating disorder community it's very prevalent," said Hartman.
#thigh gap, #proana and #eating disorder have thousands of pictures.
There's even twitter accounts tweeting advice on how to stay "skinny"... harmful advice like..."leave the dirty dishes where your parents can find them. they will think you ate."
Experts say people with eating disorders are turning to social media to exchange tips and tricks.
They do this instead of looking for help.
"This is an unrealistic goal. For some people this may come naturally, however for most of us our thighs hold the fat that we need in them," said Hartman. "It's not going to be realistic to have a large space in-between them. So again, if somebody is striving an unrealistic goal like that… something that is not common in your family, in your household, then that's the time to be worried."
If you think you know someone who might have an eating disorder, you'll want to look for significant changes in their weight and in how they look ... that's usually a red flag.
And of course, reach out to a doctor or therapist for help.

We are on our 2nd SRX and love it still.
I love my Sierra Denali all day long, for me the GMT-900 is so far ahead of the 5 GMT-800's I have had over the last 15 years I could never go back and I don't want a 4x4 I want AWD.
Well the X5 3.5d is back in the mix as well, so this weekend I am going to try and see an Enclave, Q7, X5 and maybe an MKT but man its long and ugly but the features and power are awesome but no towing and 208" long!
The X5 may win due to killer economy and sweet looking 285/315 tire combo and 6000# of towing, but the enclave is so nice but big and can't tow.

JERUSALEM (AP) — A U.S. State Department official says Secretary of State John Kerry is ready to meet with the Palestinian president for a third time if that would help advance the Mideast peace process.
Kerry is in his third day of shuttle diplomacy and has held discussions with Mahmoud Abbas on Friday and Saturday in Amman, Jordan.
Kerry is having dinner Saturday night with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem. It's their third meeting in three days.
It's unclear if or when Kerry might meet Abbas again.
The U.S. official spoke Saturday on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the negotiations.
Kerry is currently scheduled to leave Sunday for Brunei for a Southeast Asia security conference.

| NEW! Shave seconds off your shift times with the Hammerstand! You waste a lot of time during shifting because you must depress the clutch pedal beyond its true disengagemend point....Just step on the clutch pedal as hard as you like -- the Hammerstand stops the pedal at the optimum position...It's machined from a solid cylinder of 303 stainless steelfor strength and durability. It screws into factory mounting location. And it's infinitely adjustable so you can set it at the precise point where the clutch finally disengages...NOTE: will not work on BMWs in which the clutch pedal must be depressed to start the engine.
Hammerstand clutch stand HAMMERSTAND $79.99

HAHaha what a crock of shit lol. They are called "Clutch stops" UUC sells one for $20 but even that's too much. I went to lowes and built one out of a elevator bole a few nuts and it was just as good. Best part it only cost $3. Don't buy it from bavauto its a ripoff!

All four of my children were born at home. My first born, Joshua,was "delivered" by a naturopathic physician. It was a good experience, but some part of me longed to give birth alone. When I conceived my second child, Becky, in 1972, I thought I would finally get my chance, but my family objected so strongly that I decided to take a wait and see attitude.
They Don't Call it a Peak Experience for Nothing by Ruth Claire
Noah was born just after 9:00 am on December 12, 1969. It had recently snowed: a crisp, thin, white layer sparkled outside the living room window. I woke up just after 7:00 in the morning with a slight twinge in my lower back, the kind of ache anyone who has ever had menstrual cramps would recognize immediately.
Waterbirth! by Cat Majors
My birth was a "Dream Birth," better than I could have ever imagined. I am indeed, after two years, still reeling from the exuberant empowerment of it. I caught Max myself in a bathtub of lovely relaxing warm water - and he was born in a "laugh," as I was vocalizing a HO - HO - HO sound ( a very open sound which came instinctually).
Unconditional Faith by Allison and Michael Scimeca
Allison: "Unconditional faith" was the theme of my whole pregnancy and labor. This was my first child and I did not know what to expect at all. I just followed my intuition, went along with it and knew I was protected by God. I had read Birth and the Dialogue of Love by Marilyn Moran many times and it was that book I used for guidance in preparing for a homebirth. The love and support my husband Michael gave to me throughout my labor was incredible. I would have never had the same care with anyone else because no one can care for me the way my husband can. I was relaxed and comfortable and the mood was perfectly set.
A Grandmother's Story by Helen Tory
It's a boy! Name - Birdie; born - October 10, 1995; mother - Sam; father - Erik; place of birth - teepee - New Mexico; time of birth - around 4:45 a.m.; moon - full; weather - clear and cold; "midwife" in attendance - Granny Helen; weight - probably over 8 pounds (he wasn't weighed until two days later); length - about 23 inches; hair - brownish & plentiful; appearance - magical!
Our Way by Donn and Jean Reed, 1996
Donn: When Jean and I were expecting our first baby, in 1966, there was very little literature about natural birth. We had read enough to know that we wanted an undrugged birth, but we took for granted the "necessity" of birth in a hospital. From the beginning, we felt that both the pregnancy and the birth were ours, together. All we asked was permission for me to be present during the labor and delivery. "Oh, no," the doctor said, "we have enough problems without having fainting husbands all over the floor."
Quinn's Waterbirth by Jeannine Parvati Baker, 1986
I have no fear of birth. That's a gift as well as an earned trust. From the moment the bloody show comes, I know my babies will arrive within several hours. All my other babies have been born on the full moon (or within hours). How did I know the deliveries would be graced? The same way that I knew I was pregnant so early on. The brain-heart knows. And once the monkey-mind quiets down enough, all the information we need is right here, within.
Another Ordinary Birth by Laurie Morgan
Friends and family keep telling me that they're eager to hear the story of my son John's birth. I've been having a difficult time figuring out what to write though, because besides the arrival of another incredible child into our lives, there wasn't much to write about outside those little details that mothers can't help but remember, and love to ramble on about. He was born at about 9:10, the morning of July 18th, 2001. I had felt strong and regular contractions from about the time that I first began feeling little Johnny's first kicks, but the time between my first awareness that birth was close and the actual birth itself, was fairly short.
An Ordinary Miracle by Laurie Morgan
I've started to notice recently that childbirth is sometimes referred to as an "ordinary miracle." The recent experience of my third daughter's birth really fits that description to a tee. It's only been three weeks since our little one's arrival, and yet I've already struggled with how to explain how beautifully simple, peaceful, and just…well…normal this birth was. At around my seventh month I wrote in my pregnancy journal, "I've been thinking that it may be difficult to write up this little one's birth story when the time comes, because it will be so simple!" I imagined it would all go something like this, "I had some contractions, baby came out, we all celebrated, the end!" I was so right!
Giving Birth To An Angel A Sensual Birth told by Laurie Morgan
The night before my second daughter was to be born I started having comfortable but regular contractions. They came five minutes apart for half an hour, so I called my mom and my girlfriend Bridgette to let them know that the big event might be soon around midnight. I was thirteen days past the estimated "due" date, so I was really emotionally ready.
Maverek's Birth - A Shooting Star by Jenni Jessen
It became apparent by the time that I was only 22 weeks pregnant that Maverek was anxious to get here. It was at that time I had some problems with pre-term labor and began to dilate. We made it until I was 38 weeks and 2 days before he was determined to make his entrance, and quite a dramatic one at that. The day he was born progressed like any other until about 5:00 p.m., at which time, I began feeling very sick with flu like symptoms.
A Generous Orgasm by Gabriela Altobello Buenos Aires, Argentina
I have four children. Pampa is nine, Bahia is six, Selva is three and weaned at around two and a half years old. Nazareno breastfed exclusively for eight months, now at one year has learned to walk and eats a little fruit and bread and nurses all the time.
Journey to Divine Childbirth - The Birth Of Luca by Samantha Woods
How can I even begin to describe my home birth experience? Of course it was the comfort of husband and home, freedom from harmful medical intervention, joyful, painless labour and the sheer ecstasy of birthing my child into my own hands.
Jaya's Birth Story by Kathy
My pregnancy was wonderful. I felt healthier than any other time in my life. My baby was due on September 10th, and this is the day I started having contractions. They were like feathers compared to the real thing, and made me giggle. I felt like I was being tickled from the inside. They got stronger and stronger, and on the morning of the 14th, I knew this would be the day.
The Birth of Albion by Beatrice Jasper
After Dora's mild, gradual warm up and fast culmination of birth with no show, etc., I am experiencing something different to show me that I don't know everything. I went to bed at about 8:30 last night. I kept semi-dreaming through some really strong, crampy expansions. Finally got up to pee at about 12:30 am, and noticed a tinge of pink. I called Matt up and he set up cameras. I put laundry away (so the couch would be clear), very excited.
Dora's Birth Story by Beatrice Jasper
So, for the last few weeks (gee, maybe longer), I have been having a lot of pretty strong Braxton Hicks- though some were so strong that I could feel my cervix changing a bit, so I wouldn't call those BHs.
My Decision To Have An Unassisted Homebirth by Lisa J. Patton, Livermore Falls, Maine
During the early months of my third pregnancy, while under the care of my OB, I began questioning traditional medicine and hospital birth. I delivered my first two children in the hospital.
Safe Inside the Storm by Liana Weed
My water broke early on the morning of Saturday, April 6, 2002. It wasn't much, just a trickle, and there were no contractions yet. So I got up and went to some garage sales and spent the rest of the day straightening the house, resting, and playing with the kids.
Zachary - Having a Baby "On the Way!" by Laura Joy Francis
One day overdue, I was awakened by the first contraction at 7:00 am. This was it! I had to moan through the contraction - "ahhhhhhhhhh" - the birthing song that I had learned during labor with my first child, Alyssa, 2 years earlier. I waited and timed another contraction. 15 minutes apart. I mumbled to John, "I'm in labor, but go ahead and sleep a while longer. It'll probably be a long day."
Peaceful Surrender by Stacy
I dreamed of delivering my own baby, unassisted since I first became aware of where babies come from. I really could not fathom the idea of being watched by strangers for such an intimate act. At 22 I gave birth to my first baby at home with my boyfriend, a midwife and her assistant. The presence of the assistant just sucked! I did not like her one bit. The homebirth was definitely a joy and I really felt accomplished at not doing it in a hospital, but it was not the fulfillment of my dream.

Sold my M3 after almost 7 years...
I ordered the car back in 2005 and took delivery on Sept 1st of '05. Wonderful car. Put a mere 24,000 miles on it in that time (too many cars.)
Two consolations: (1) the car went to an enthusiast and (2) I will soon order a 2013 Boxster S.
And I just noticed that I no longer own either of the cars featured in my avatar...
Congrats on the sale. I'm sure the new Boxster will treat you well.
I don't see me selling mine any time soon. I've had it for 10 years now and it still brings smile to my face every time I drive it.
