Game 5 wasn't really going the Bruins way all night long but things got scary for them during the second intermission. Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron was taken out of the United Center in an ambulance and taken to the hospital for undisclosed reasons. Bergeron played very little time in the two periods he was available and it didn't appear as though he had suffered a hit that would have prompted the type of exit Bergeron took.
According to NBC's ice-side reporter Pierre McGuire, Bergeron nor the Bruins gave a specific reason for Bergeron leaving during the second intermission. Per NHL.com:
"Let's just say right now we're going to give him a little bit of time," Boston coach Claude Julien said to NBC's Pierre McGuire during a second-period on-camera interview.
While he was available, Bergeron played just 49 seconds in the second period with his 33-second shift early in the second period being his last of the night. He looked very sluggish while on the ice and it appears the intensity and physicality of this series is catching up on both sides. Jonathan Toews has been getting blasted all game long and hasn't looked himself.
But the concern is over Bergeron and the fact that he left the game without a specific reason. Bergeron's loss has effected the Bruins and his absence on the ice is not something that Boston wants to have to deal with as he's without a doubt been a leader and the star for Boston so far in the Stanley Cup playoffs.

2012 GOP: "Empty chair lynchings."
At least two recent incidents in which empty chairs were hung from trees by rope have critics decrying what they say are racially offensive displays meant to symbolize the "lynching" of President Barack Obama.
In Austin, Texas, a homeowner hung an empty folding chair from a tree branch in front of his house and later attached an American flag to it. He reportedly told a Democratic political blogger who inquired about it: "You can take [your concerns] and go straight to hell and take Obama with you."
How Barack Obama Made His Fortune
I'm tired of talking about the horrors of Mitt Romney. Let's talk about a dude who made his money honestly (which we know because he's released his tax returns for all to see). How did he get rich? By writing books and investing wisely. And then when he decided owning a million or two was enough (Romney is worth over $200 million for comparison), gave all of his Nobel Peace Prize money to charity.
All. Of. It. Which if he hadn't, it would have approximately doubled his worth. So basically he gave away half of what he owned to charity that day.
So when this guy says he's trying to help the lower and middle classes, whether or not I think his ideas will work, at least I know he really believes in what he says he does.
you're a nice president
oh my god. wowwww. <3
"An extraordinary lack of presidential character." Yep.
And this was LAST week!
you're irrelevant because this
I love President Obama so much that it hurts sometimes.

Moroccan citron
|Moroccan Citron
|C. medica
The Moroccan sweet citron (Hebrew: אֶתְרוֹג מָרוֹקָנִי), native to Assads, Morocco, was first described in detail by Professor Henri Chapot, in his article named Un curieux cedrat Marocain (1950).[1] He discovered that the acidity in the more common citrons or lemons, is represented by violet pigmentation on the outer side of the flower blossom, and also by the new buds that are reddish-purplish. The Moroccan citron which is acidless is completely lacking the red colour.
This designation was cited by Webber and Batchelor the editors of the fundamental treatise on citrus, namely The Citrus Industry, which was published by the University of California, Riverside in year 1967.[2]
Use as etrog[edit]
The exact date when the variety came into use for etrog is unknown. According to the local Jewry, it was with them since they were exiled to Morocco after the destruction of the Second Temple. From then on it was highly revered by all the rabbis and communities of Northern Africa, without any interruption or controversy.[3] During time, it got accepted also by Ashkenazi communities all over Europe.[4]
The precise location of cultivation is at the village Assads in the region of Tarrudant, and a 100 km east of Agadir, as was numerously reported by rabbinical and secular sources.
In 1995, Professor Eliezer E. Goldschmidt together with a delegation of rabbis were hired by Rabbi Yosef Shalom Elyashiv of Jerusalem, Israel, to check out if Morocco is still in the same state of kashrut, and if any grafted etrog is to be found over there. Professor Goldschmidt asked the Moroccan professor of horticulture, namely Mohamed El-Otmani from Agadir, to assist.
All together they climbed up the Anti-Atlas canyon where the local Berbers have been cultivating the Moroccan Citron for many centuries, and they were very impressed from the old tradition which is practiced there, finding not one grafted citron tree. (Grafted citrons are not kosher for ritual use on Sukkot, according to halachah.[5])
The delegation presented their finding to Rabbi Elyashiv, who was very happy about the information that the Moroccan wilderness still presents the unbroken lineage, of a non-grafted etrog.
The lack of seeds[edit]
However, Schraga Schlomai, a renowned etrog grower[6] recounted the misfortunes of all the used etrog types besides the one he was cultivating, which he claimed to be a descendant of the Balady from Umm al-Fahm.
As to the Yanover and the Corfu he argued based on the booklet from the Salant partners, that since some of them are proven to be grafted, no certification may be granted to the rest, since it is impossible to determine if the non-grafted citrons are not descendents of the grafted ones.
As to the Moroccan and Yemenite he argued, that although there were no grafted trees ever discovered among those kinds, they should be unfit, in light of the differentiation from the Ashkenazi types. The Moroccan citron is allegedly noted for its seedlessness, and the Yemenite for its pulplessness, both are too much different in morphology from the usual yanove and Israeli esrogs.[7]
|Acidic-pulp varieties:
|Non-acidic varieties:
|Pulpless varieties:
|Citron Hybrids:
|Related Articles:
|Citrus • Succade • Etrog • Hybrid • Grafting • Chimera • Sukkoth • Four Species
He was than disputed by Rabbi Shmuel David Munk in his responsa "Pe'ath Sadcha" chapter 62, that at least with those who are surely ungrafted, the differentials cannot regret them, since the etrog of one country must not match the morphology of that of another origin.
In 1980 when the market in Brooklyn changed very much in favor of the Moroccan, Rabbi Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam, the Klausenberger Rebbe, banned the Moroccan citron for religious use.[8] His ruling (printed in 1980) was based on the fact that some of them have no seeds, and seeing that the Shiyurei Kneseth haGedola (Orach Chaim 648) discuses what direction the seeds should be facing to prove their purity, he concluded that an authentic citron should always be seedy.
The seeds of the Moroccan Citron are actually facing utmost vertically as required, and the partial seedlessness cannot be a result of graft, as proven by Dr. Goldschmidt. The only question is about natural hybridization that may have occurred to certain types of citron, some hundreds or thousands of years ago, which is also unlikely in light of the DNA comparison conducted by Dr. Goldschmidt among researchers around the globe.[9]

About the Pictures Image Gallery
The juxtaglomerular apparatus is a microscopic structure in the kidney, which regulates the function of each nephron. The juxtaglomerular apparatus is named for its proximity to the glomerulus: it is found between the vascular pole of the renal corpuscle and the returning distal convoluted tubule of the same nephron. This location is critical to its function in regulating renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. The three cellular components of the apparatus are the macula densa, extraglomerular mesangial cells, and juxtaglomerular cells (also known as granular cells).

Donald's Duck is the fifth episode of the third season. In the US, it first aired on the Shining Time Station episode Double Trouble.
Duck has been working hard and as a reward the Fat Controller gives him his own branch line. Duck gets conceited about his responsibility, until Donald loses patience and tells him he "quacks" like a duck laying an egg.
Duck is furious and his crew decides to put a duckling in Donald's tank. Donald becomes attached to the duckling, but she soon jumps ship at Tidmouth Hault.
Donald's crew, planning one last trick, put an egg in a box underneath Duck's bunker.

What makes a neighborhood great?
The best places to live rise to the top because of where they are, who lives there and what elements are in them.
© Richmond (Va.) Metropolitan Convention & Visitors Bureau
What distinguishes a great neighborhood from the merely meh? It's a difficult question, encompassing everything from physical attributes such as good design to the right number of parks and public gathering places.
We asked urban planners, a geographer, an architect and real-estate agents to pinpoint some of the common threads that put an area on the map for buyers and visitors.
Is it a charming Main Street, good schools or an abundance of interesting shops, restaurants and other diversions? What elements conspire to create great neighborhoods such as the Pearl District in Portland, Ore., Boston's Back Bay or Fells Point in Baltimore?
People and place
If you ask Fred Kent, founder and president of the nonprofit Project for Public Spaces, it's people, not developers, who create the next big place.
"It's always a bunch of individuals coming in who think the potential for their community is bigger," Kent says. "They have this feeling that something has happened there and start to do little things that collectively add up to a big thing."
That might include a shoe-repair shop owner sprucing up his storefront, a coin laundry adding an attached coffee shop or a resident putting in a park bench on the corner to allow people to stop and talk.
"These twists give a signal that something is going on here. Pretty soon other people put a bench on the street," Kent says. And voilà, he says, revitalization is born.
In many areas, this urban renewal is started by artists – those who need to live cheaply to pursue their craft but want to be close to cultural and physical amenities.
Just look at the decades-old revitalization of downtown Portland, Maine, says Andrew Schiller, geographer and CEO of Location Inc., which operates the NeighborhoodScout website. Its downtown was once so empty that city officials refused to plow the snow from its streets during the winter. Then artists from the local college started moving into old warehouses along the waterfront, stringing up outdoor lights and opening their galleries to visitors. It was the beginning of a thriving city.
Slide show: From blighted to bling: 10 revitalized neighborhoods
Ditto for once-moribund Asbury Park, N.J., with its beautiful Victorian architecture that has been turned around by creative entrepreneurs in the past decade.
Article continues below
Elements that encourage interaction – parks, boardwalks, public plazas and wide sidewalks – serve as people magnets, Kent says. Best of all are sidewalks on a community's main street that run between café seating and storefront window displays, allowing people to walk dogs, greet neighbors and people watch. Add things such as weekly farmers markets, civic-association pancake breakfasts and multidimensional establishments that offer opportunities to linger, such as a coffee shop with art displays, a lively bulletin board and outdoor café seating, and you've got the beginnings of a great neighborhood hub.
These are the places you take friends and family when you want to show them the neighborhood, planners say.
"People attract people," Kent says, so when businesses triangulate in one place, such as a theater, bookstore and art gallery, they give people reason to stick around.

Indeed, Kent's group, the PPS, advocates "The Power of 10" for neighborhoods – capitalizing on the 10 most important and useful places, such as the local post office, coffee shop or park. The more things that can be clustered around these places, the PPS says, the more central and beloved a neighborhood will become.
Location, location, location
Of course, few people are going to settle in a neighborhood if it doesn't have access to well-paying jobs, Schiller says. "The places that have the most value and that gentrified first were those closest to, or have access to, high-paying jobs. They went up the fastest and the farthest," he says.
That, he says, is why you see neighborhoods revitalized near the subway lines into Manhattan such as Brooklyn's Park Slope or Williamsburg districts, or those by light rail, such as South Pasadena, Calif.
Indeed, planners say access to good public transportation can turn even some suburbs into hot areas. A study released earlier this year by the American Public Transportation Association and the National Association of Realtors showed that between 2006 and 2011, home values performed 42% better on average if the homes were within a half-mile of public transportation with high-frequency service, such as subway, light rail or bus rapid transit. Residents in those areas had better access to jobs and lower transportation costs, leaving them with more money to enjoy neighborhood amenities.
Another perk: Transit stations often attract retail shops, services and dining, giving some suburbs without a real downtown a place to walk and linger.
Another study cited in the APTA report found that buyers in the suburbs of Portland, Ore., paid more for houses in neighborhoods with more connected street networks, smaller blocks and pedestrian access to commercial shops and services and light-rail stations.
Let's not forget schools
"By and large, the highest-value home prices in America are found in school districts of very high quality," Schiller says, preferably those with access to high-paying jobs.

These areas, such as the Boston commuter suburbs of Newton and Brookline, are the blue-chip stocks of neighborhoods, even for people without kids, because they attract people with higher levels of education, who tend to be more active in preserving community value.
Most Americans commute by driving their cars alone. Therefore, driving alone is the only NORMAL and PATRIOTIC mode of transportation, while trains, buses, and walking are ABNORMAL and ANTI-AMERICAN.
America. Over 25% of adults prescribed anti-depressants regardless of neighborhoods we reside. Most unhappy with our jobs/goevernment. Blacks have worked hard and improved. No longer with the highest percentage of folks on welfare or making less than $25K a year. Crime in U. S. declining every year. We are a nation competing globally and frought with unnecessary divisons within. All deserve basic happiness. Foolish and unneccessary in-fighting makes for folks not living up to our humane, potential. Only greater wisdom, love, discipline, integrity and compassion will propel us forward. Racism has played out and has no place in a modern and intelligent society. Let's all think, do and feel better. Richest nation on earth, depressed disportionately. We can, must and will do better.

The guy who made it the furthest in American Idol this season was Lazaro Arbos.
He finished in 6th place.
Lazaro has a severe stutter and many wondered throughout the season how he was able to sing so flawlessly when the stutter was so pronounced when he spoke.
It seems like such a paradox that the young man, who really struggles to speak clearly, can sing without stuttering at all.
But it turns out, Lazaro isn't the only stutter-er who has no problem singing.
Lazaro Arbos' smooth and soulful sound made him an Idol fan favorite. But when the 21-year-old first opened his mouth in auditions, his delivery was far from effortless.
Lazaro has been stuttering since the age of 6, but has always been able to sing without missing a beat.
Speech pathologist Lisa Naylor says this phenomenon is actually quite common.
There are several reasons why stutters can sing smoothly, the first being a principle called "easy onset of voicing."
"When we're singing, we have an easier, smoother, more relaxed voice than we do during speaking and that's actually a strategy that we use to help people who stutter to be more fluent during speech production," said Naylor.
Another reason for stutter-free crooning? The rate of speech.
When a stutterer sings, he prolongs the pronunciation of words, and they come out more smoothly.
Lisa had FOX 10's Kristy Siefkin practice speaking more gently, and more slowly, to demonstrate.
An open throat allows for smoother delivery, but the brain is also a big player in the vocal equation.
While speaking is localized to the brain's left hemisphere, Lisa says that singing
engages a variety of neural pathways.
"It's the left hemisphere, the right hemisphere in deeper structures within the brain that are involved in memory and emotional processing," said Naylor.
Stuttering typically begins in childhood, as it did for Lazaro, but it can also happen after a traumatic brain injury or stoke.
In these cases, Lisa actually uses singing as a form of therapy, joining patients as they sing familiar tunes like "Happy Birthday."
"Sometimes that's the only way, particularly in the early stages of recovery, that's the only way that these people can get words out," said Naylor.
For all types of stutterers, better speaking can mean more confidence.
And on that front, it looks like Lazaro's already off to a great start.
Lisa says about 1 percent of the US population stutters, and that managing stuttering symptoms is something patients work on over the course of their lifetime.

Stopped here to catch some sleep on the way to Florida. Hotel staff was very friendly and great. Our room just wasn't what it normally is at a Drury. Kind of musty smelling and just a little 'old' feeling. It wasn't terrible but just not a normal Drury in my opinion. The breakfast was good as usual. The hotel must not be the greatest area. The parking lot was gated and I did feel secure inside. The staff was overly helpful and friendly. But I just probably wouldn't stay here again.

APPEAL FROM PULASKI CIRCUIT COURT HONORABLE PAUL BARRY JONES, JUDGE ACTION NO. 92-CR-00061 COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY APPELLEE OPINION AFFIRMING ** ** ** ** ** BEFORE: GUIDUGLI, JOHNSON AND KNOPF, JUDGES. Donald Ray Newcomb (Newcomb) appeals an order GUIDUGLI, JUDGE. entered by Special Judge, Honorable Paul Barry Jones, in the Pulaski Circuit Court on March 11, 1999, denying his CR 60.02 motion. The special judge determined that Newcomb had failed to produced any evidence "to support a mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect, newly discovered evidence, which by due diligence could have been discovered, perjury, falsified evidence or fraud affecting the proceeding, or any other valid reason of extraordinary nature justifying the relief requested. The court also found that Newcomb's CR 60.02 motion was not timely filed. hence, affirm. We agree with the findings of the trial court and, Newcomb was indicted by the Pulaski County Grand Jury on March 25, 1992, on charges of first-degree assault (KRS 508.010) and of being a persistent felony offender (PFO) first degree (KRS 532.080). After a trial by jury, he was convicted of both charges and sentenced to twenty (20) years imprisonment. His conviction was affirmed by the Kentucky Supreme Court in an unpublished memorandum opinion on May 24, 1994 (Justice Stumbo dissenting without opinion). In the direct appeal, Newcomb raised ten (10) alleged errors that occurred during his trial. On September 16, 1994, Newcomb filed a RCr 11.42 motion to vacate his judgment alleging generally that he received ineffective assistance of counsel. Specifically, he set forth four (4) areas where he believed his trial counsel to be ineffective. The trial court's denial of his motion, without a hearing, was affirmed by the Court of Appeals in an unpublished opinion rendered December 22, 1995. Thereafter, Newcomb filed a motion styled "Petition for Court Order to Correct Presentence Investigation Report." the trial court denied this motion. Again, Again, the trial court's order was affirmed by the Court of Appeals in an unpublished opinion rendered November 26, 1997. Newcomb's motion to the Kentucky Supreme Court for discretionary review was denied February 11, 1998. We now come to Newcomb's CR 60.02 motion, which is the subject of this appeal. Said motion was filed on March 16, 1998. -2- A special judge was appointed pursuant to Newcomb's repeated requests alleging that the trial judge was guilty of both "bias" and "misconduct" towards him. Special Judge Paul Barry Jones denied Newcomb's request for an evidentiary hearing and further denied his CR 60.02 motion in an order entered March 11, 1999. This appeal followed. Newcomb's appeal can be affirmed on several legal principles. First, as the special trial judge stated, "this CR 60.02 provides: motion was not timely filed." On a motion a court may, upon such terms as are just, relieve a party or his legal representative from its final judgment, order, or proceeding upon the following grounds: (a) mistake, inadvertence, surprise or excusable neglect; (b) newly discovered evidence which by due diligence could not have been discovered in time to move for a new trial under Rule 59.02; (c) perjury or falsified evidence; (d) fraud affecting the proceedings, other than perjury or falsified evidence; (e) the judgment is void, or has been satisfied, released, or discharged, or a prior judgment upon which it is based has been reversed or otherwise vacated, or it is no longer equitable that the judgment should have prospective application; or (f) any other reason of an extraordinary nature justifying relief. The motion shall be made within a reasonable time, and on grounds (a), (b), and (c) not more than one year after the judgment, order, or proceeding was entered or taken. A motion under this rule does not affect the finality of a judgment or suspend its operation. (emphasis added). Obviously, under (a), (b) and (c), Newcomb would have had to file his motion within one (1) year of the entry of the judgment (March 30, 1993), which he did not do. Under (d), (e), or (f), The trial court Newcomb must file within a "reasonable time." held, and we agree, that six years was not a reasonable time. -3- This is true, especially in light of the fact that Newcomb has not alleged any specific grounds sufficient to comply with the provisions of (d), (e) or (f). Newcomb's appeal must also fail in that it is an impermissible consecutive collateral attack. In Gross v. Commonwealth, Ky., 648 S.W.2d 853, (1983), the Supreme Court held that a defendant must seek RCr 11.42 relief before seeking CR 60.02 relief. More particularly, the Court stated as follows: The structure provided in Kentucky for attacking the final judgment of a trial court in a criminal case it not haphazard and overlapping, but is organized and complete. That structure is set out in the rules related to direct appeals, in RCr 11.42, and thereafter in CR 60.02. CR 60.02 is not intended merely as an additional opportunity to raise Boykin defenses. It is for relief that is not available by direct appeal and not available under RCr 11.42. The movant must demonstrate why he is entitled to this special, extraordinary relief... . ... We hold that the proper procedure for a defendant aggrieved by a judgment in a criminal case is to directly appeal that judgment, stating every ground of error which it is reasonable to expect that he or his counsel is aware of when the appeal is taken. Next, we hold that a defendant is required to avail himself of RCr 11.42 while in custody under sentence or on probation, parole or conditional discharge, as to any ground of which he is aware, or should be aware, during the period when this remedy is available to him. Final disposition of that motion, or waiver of the opportunity to make it, shall conclude all issues that reasonably could have been presented in that proceeding. The language of RCr 11.42 forecloses the defendant from raising any questions under CR 60.02 which are "issues that could reasonably have been presented" by RCr 11.42 proceedings. -4- Id. at 856-57. Each issue presented by Newcomb was or should have been raised in either his direct appeal to the Kentucky Supreme Court or in his previous RCr 11.42 motion. continuous bites of the same apple. Newcomb is not entitled to Despite his claims to the contrary, Newcomb has not presented any new claims, especially claims which demonstrate special or extraordinary relief, which could not or should not have been raised in his previous motions and appeals. For the foregoing reasons, the order of the Special Judge of the Pulaski Circuit Court denying Newcomb's CR 60.02 motion is affirmed. KNOPF, JUDGE, CONCURS. JOHNSON, JUDGE, CONCURS IN RESULT ONLY.

Complaining about calories in pots de creme is like complaining about red meat in a fillet mignon! They are created to be less filling than a piece of pie, and more indulgent than an after dinner mint. This is a stylish departure from the normal vanilla, chocolate and lemon pots de cremes that I usually make... although the added layers of flavor make it heavier. It is a delightful combination of flavors and a perfect finish to a large, celebratory feast.

An expectant mother copes with the unexpected
Happy and pregnant, Yanitza Rivera arrived at her 20-week ultrasound appointment eagerly anticipating the answer to one question: Is it a boy or a girl?
Yanitza's elation, however, soon turned to panic. In the middle of her examination, the ultrasound technician unexpectedly left the room. "My heart just dropped," she says. "I knew something was wrong."
The technician returned with the doctor, who explained the problem: Her baby's heart rate was dangerously low, possibly due to a potentially fatal condition known as a complete heart block. This rare problem occurs when the heart's electrical system malfunctions, disrupting the heart's rhythms and its ability to pump blood effectively.
To ensure she and her baby received specialized medical attention, Yanitza's doctors referred her to the Rush Fetal and Neonatal Medicine Center, which brings together experts from different areas in health care to help families like Yanitza's.
Expertise brings reassurance
At the center, a team of specialists — including OB/GYNs, neonatologists, ultrasound specialists, social workers and a pediatric heart specialist — ordered additional tests, assessed the findings and confirmed a diagnosis of complete heart block. "They really knew what they were doing," Yanitza says. "I felt better just knowing that I was in good hands."
The team's treatment plan: intensive, weekly monitoring via ultrasound; medications designed to increase the baby's heart rate; and, once Yanitza gave birth, a surgical procedure to implant a pacemaker in the baby's heart to restore a healthy heart rhythm. "This kind of coordinated care was vital," says Jacques Abramowicz, MD, an ultrasound specialist and co-director of the center. "We had the baby's heart block to contend with as well as other complications that could have proved fatal."
A close watch, a proactive strategy
To put it simply, Yanitza faced a complicated pregnancy and her baby's survival was uncertain. But Yanitza found comfort in the staff's attentiveness. "I started to think that everything was going to be OK because they kept such a close eye on me."
In May 2008, Yanitza delivered her daughter as planned, with neonatologists and pediatric heart specialists at the ready. "Knowing what we were up against, we immediately gave the baby medications to increase her heart rate and inserted a pacemaker two days later," says Barbara Santucci, MD, a pediatric heart specialist. "This proactive approach really can make the difference between life and death."
Happy endings, new beginnings
Today Hayley is a playful 3-year-old who, because she has a pacemaker, continues to be closely monitored by the Rush team. While the rigors of caring for a child with special health needs have tested Yanitza in ways she never imagined, she has never doubted Hayley's quality of care — before birth, immediately after and ever since.
Rush's watchful approach gave her the reassurance to try parenthood again. This time, though, Yanitza is prepared to expect what was once unexpected. And by all indications, she should expect a healthy baby girl this fall.

Having placenta previa makes it more likely that you'll have heavy bleeding and need a blood transfusion. This is the case not only during pregnancy but also during and after delivery. Here's why:
After a baby is delivered by c-section, the obstetrician delivers the placenta and the mother is given Pitocin (and possibly other medications). Pitocin causes the uterus to contract, which helps stop the bleeding from the area where the placenta was implanted. But when you have placenta previa, the placenta is implanted in the lower part of the uterus, which doesn't contract as well as the upper part – so the contractions aren't as effective at stopping the bleeding.
Women who have placenta previa are also more likely to have a placenta that's implanted too deeply and that doesn't separate easily at delivery. This is called placenta accreta. Placenta accreta can cause massive bleeding and the need for multiple blood transfusions at delivery. It can be life threatening and require a hysterectomy to control the bleeding.
The incidence of placenta accreta has been on the rise, hand in hand with the rising c-section rate. That's because having a prior c-section makes it more likely that a woman with placenta previa will also have placenta accreta. In fact, the risk goes up dramatically as the number of prior c-sections goes up.
Finally, if you need to deliver before term, your baby will be at risk for complications from premature birth – such as breathing problems and low birth weight.
Most women who develop placenta previa have no apparent risk factors. But if any of the following apply to you, you're more likely to have this complication:
Also, the more babies you've had and the older you are, the higher your risk.

Stipends and Housing
How to Apply
Participants in the four-week institute will be engaged in a program of seminars, group discussions, trips to local and regional collections, presentations by participants, and individual consultations with the faculty. A guest faculty member will serve as co-leader each week, joining other guest faculty who will offer particular workshops, walking tours, and presentations. Monday and Wednesday mornings will generally be devoted to seminar discussions on readings and object analysis led by the director and guest faculty leader for that week. Other afternoons or entire day field trips (Hudson River collections, Yale University Art Gallery) will allow participants to pursue hands-on work guided by our guest faculty; we will also have two afternoons a week that will be open for individual meetings by participants with the director and the guest faculty as well as the opportunity to pursue research in New York collections. Each Friday will also feature a digital workshop during which we will introduce participants to new methods of collecting information about artifacts, as well as methods of presentation such as digital exhibitions for scholarly use, video essays, Prezi presentation software, and collaborative wikis for scholarly use and student projects.
We will follow a thematic scheme with such weekly topics as Craft to Industry or High/Low in Material Culture to focus our visits to various collections of 19th century New York City material culture; this approach to contextualizing our study will model for the participants how our particular practice for studying material culture might transfer to their own teaching or research. We will also investigate some genres and forms over a longer period of time to allow participants to see changes in technology or modes of consumption; one example will be our study of prints and illustrated periodicals in week four.
Our first week (July 1-5) will be devoted to an Introduction to American Material Culture Studies. Catherine Whalen (Bard Graduate Center), an expert in the culture of collecting and the methods and theories of American material culture, will be the co-leader this week. We explore the historiography of American material culture studies, along with the approaches of art history and the decorative arts. The afternoon discussion will move to the week's theme of Craft to Industry, considering how new modes of manufacture changed the structure of various industries along with concurrent changes in product design and consumer tastes over the nineteenth century. A library session will introduce participants to the BGC collections, survey other local library collections, and discuss their relative strengths based upon the participants' interests. On Tuesday our guest faculty Ken Ames (Professor, BGC), author of several significant material culture studies including Death in the Dining Room, and Debra Schmidt-Bach (N-YHS), assistant curator of decorative arts and a specialist in silver production in New York, begin our hands-on work with objects by conducting a workshop on silver artifacts at the New-York Historical Society (N-YHS). Ivan Gaskell (BGC) will join us for close looking in the galleries. On Wednesday we will take a full day trip to New Haven, led by guest lecturer Edward S. Cooke Jr., to visit the Yale University Art Gallery (YUAG). He will lead two hands-on workshops on the changing modes of production in ceramics and furniture in the first half of the nineteenth century as participants work with the collections in the Art Gallery's Object Study Classroom and its Furniture Study where over 1,000 objects can be examined. Our first digital workshop on Friday, led by the BGC Assistant Director for the Digital Media Lab, Kimon Keramidas, will survey digital tools and online resources available for material culture scholarship and teaching.
Our focus in week two (July 8-12) will be on Space and Place. For this week, we will focus on how the early nineteenth-century port city of New York experienced a striking social and spatial differentiation among its inhabitants over the century, as well as how the participants can use historic houses and walking tours in their teaching and research. Our guest instructor, Bernard Herman (George B. Tindall Professor of American Studies, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) will lead our Monday seminar in readings in landscape studies and vernacular architecture that will guide our investigation of the grid pattern of 1811 and the growth of middle class row houses and artisans' dwellings. On Tuesday, Jack Tchen (History and Asian/Pacific/American Studies, New York University), author of New York Before Chinatown: Orientalism and the Shaping of American Culture, 1776-1882, will conduct a walking tour of Chinatown's Chatham Square and talk about his recent research on recovering the history of the Asian-American community of nineteenth-century New York and its cultural traditions of intermingling and improvisation; we will visit the Museum of the Chinese in America with Tchen. Herman will lead a visit on Wednesday morning to the Storage Facility of the American Folk Art Museum to guide participants in thinking about the complex issues around the concept of folk art and looking at quilts as a way of understanding social relationships and civic relations. On Thursday, the second seminar will be lead by the historical archaeologist Diana Wall, who will discuss her research on the African Burial Ground. We will also visit the nearby site of Seneca Village with historian Cynthia Copeland to talk about how archaeological and historical archival research allow for the reconstruction of the African-American and Irish immigrant community in the Central Park area that was displaced by the park's construction. Our digital workshop will consider the use of Prezi and wikis as tools for teaching, project development, workflow, and presentations.
In week three (July 15-19) we will shift attention to High/Low in Material Culture and the study of the domestic interior from the perspective of different classes. Katherine Grier (History, Museum Studies, University of Delaware), will be our co-leader. Her book Culture and Comfort is a foundational text for understanding how the parlor became the site for middle class identity; her interests lie in the history of everyday life in America, especially household routines, domestic interiors, and foodways. Grier will be joined by Amelia Peck (Marica F. Vilcek Curator, American Decorative Arts, Metropolitan Museum of Art) for our full-day visit to two Hudson River estates: Lyndhurst, the Gothic Revival mansion designed in 1838 by A. J. Davis as a country villa and then redesigned in 1864-65, and Glenview, to see the later arrival of American Arts and Crafts style. Our visit will explore the changing relationship of city and hinterlands, along with the idealization of nature and the rise of rural residences, and allow participants to better understand the goals of nineteenth-century landscape design. Thursday morning will feature a visit to the Lower East Side Museum with a behind-the-scenes tour of the collections and a discussion of how the LES Museum tells the story of the immigrant working class residents of 97 Orchard Street amidst the neighborhood of the Lower East Side. Our weekly digital workshop will delve into how Omeka and other digital tools can facilitate the creation and use of online exhibitions in teaching and research.
Our focus in the fourth week (July 22-26) will be on Visual Culture. Our guest instructor Joshua Brown (History, American Social History Project, Graduate Center, CUNY), author of prize-winning studies of the pictorial press of the Gilded Age, will conduct a seminar on the burgeoning literature of visual culture studies and its relation to material culture. He will begin the participants' study of the various genres of prints (woodcut, lithograph photograph, half tone, cartoons, illustrated newspapers) in their technical aspects as well as their plural cultural meaning. On Tuesday we will broaden our hands-on work with Ivan Gaskell, who will conduct a workshop in the nineteenth-century collections of Native American material culture at the American Museum of Natural History in New York that constituted some of the foundations for American anthropology; Gaskell's workshop will serve also to highlight issues surrounding the exciting culture of collecting. On Wednesday, Brown will lead a hands-on session at the New-York Historical Society's Print Room; our investigation of the new immigrant communities will emphasize the way that these groups become visible in such material cultural forms as prints and illustrated periodicals and newspapers. Brown will also conduct a workshop on the use of new media to teach and research American material and visual culture based upon the ASHP's ample experience. Thursday and Friday will conclude with the participants' project presentations and plans for follow-up work.

HTC is all business when it comes to the second iteration of the HTC Touch Pro. Unveiled today, the Touch Pro2 sports a refreshed rounded look and an assortment of features that are designed to help you excel in the workplace. So what are we talking about? A new and improved speakerphone that uses something HTC is calling Straight Talk that improves sound quality, voice reception and noise cancellation. They've also streamlined the conference call process (also part of the whole Straight Talk trademark) with what looks to be a very intuitive UI in addition to rolling out the ability to call a contact from any form of communication, such as email or text. The Touch Pro's screen has also been updated increasing its size to 3.6-inches with a WVGA (480×800) resolution. Too difficult to view the on screen text? No prob, just zoom in with the dedicated Zoom bar or tilt the screen accordingly to get a glare free view.
The Touch Pro2 will make its way across 'major global markets' this summer.

Nostalgia Tech 6: Back to school tech that will make your kids hate you
Summary: We thought these items were cool when we were at school. Your kids -- and their friends -- will not.
11 of 15Image
Colouring pencils
Why they will hate it: Coloured pencils are for art students and kindergarten kids.
What they want instead: Draw Something.
Image credit: Not on the High Street
Polaroid camera
Why they will hate it: After taking a photo you have to take the film photo out of the camera, put the developing image under your armpit if the weather is cold and wait a couple of minutes for the film to develop. Then if the photo is not good enough you need to retake thephoto. Upload any decent photographs to a paper photo album. Affix with glue, sticky tape or plastic photo corners that will only last for a couple of years before they fall off.
What they want instead: A smartphone. Or a tablet. Or a digital compact camera. Or anything digital that can upload to Facebook within seconds.

Speak and spell
Why they will hate it: You must pronounce the words in exactly the right way or you the device will not understand you.
What they want instead: Siri.

Her name's Remi Afolabi but I prefer to call this Black Girl Killing It "Ms. Blazer" and I'm sure you can tell why…
How would you define your personal style?
My style changes A LOT, call me a chameleon :) I like to experiment with different looks, but I mainly like to keep it simple & CHIC.
Do you find that you follow fashion trends or do you play by your own rules?
The weird thing is I will start wearing things that will be in trend the next season lol, I like playing by my own rules. I tend to wear what I want most of time, anything that I am comfortable in. Sometimes when I'm flicking through a fashion mag, and I see a trend I like, I may try it out. I want to be a fashion stylist so knowing the current trends helps.
Are there any colours you tend to shy away from, and if so why?
I remember I would always stick to the safe colours such as brown, beige, khaki, white and black (which I still love, love, love), but as I have said earlier, I have been experimenting with different looks which tend to involve bright colours such as red, orange and yellow. I hate PINK though, since I was a little girl I just couldn't be friends with the colour lol. I don't own anything pink in my wardrobe!
As a child were you always into clothes or did you grow into your own fashion sense?
Oh I was always into clothes! My mum told me that I would raid her wardrobe and strut around in her clothes and my dad would take photgraphs of me as if it were a real photoshoot! In my early teens (I'm still in my teens lol), people would tell me I had a nice a sense of style and I guess from there, I became more and more interested in fashion and the way I styled myself.
How does your day to day life factor into your wardrobe choices?
I try not to let day to day things restrict the way I dress. I have places like work and church I have to go to and I express my style however. British weather is dominated by the autumn/winter seasons and that has fully adapted into my wardrobe so that is why you will always spot me wearing a blazer in the middle of summer lol. My mood actually has less of an influence on what I pick out of my wadrobe to wear.
Are there any designers that you like to wear or whose clothing stands out with you?
I haven't got the money that can reach out to buying big designer labels and although I love looking at the catwalk collections i'd rather stick to my 'high street fashion' as us Londoners call it! I love Zara, H&M, Topshop shops like that. I would say my favourite fashion designer however is Alexander Wang, I just love his use of the forever loved Androgynous (girl-boy) trend and his chic, simple designs.

Do you wish to learn the way of knights?
My son, you must vow to apply yourself well,
For in taking the oath that knights follow,
Comes engagement with the forces of Hell.
Be strong of wit and sure of heart; never
Give up, or turn from your sacred duty,
Lest you be accounted with eternal shame
And die without your honor or dignity.
Remember your armor, remember your sword;
Fend off the Dragon and call on the Lord.
Protect those around you, guard them all well,
Serve as your family's brave sentinel.
Stand strong for your king; it's his life you hold.
A valorous knight is worth more than gold.

VIDEO: Albuquerque Kicking Incident
The two Albuquerque (N.M.) Police officers involved in a kicking incident captured on video have been fired, reports the Albuquerque Journal.
Officers John Doyle and Robert Woolever were fired Wednesday, a day after the release of surveillance video from a parking garage that shows one officer kicking a suspect in the head while a second officer holds him on the ground.
In the video, Officer Doyle is seen kicking the man in the head several times, while Officer Woolever holds him down during the Feb. 13 incident.
The man on the ground is Nicholas Blume, an auto-theft suspect who had resisted arrest by the officers. In the video, Blume is taken to the ground, and Officer Woolever strikes him in the head with his baton. Then Doyle runs up and kicks Blume in the head repeatedly while Woolever holds Blume's hands behind his back. Blume appears to go limp about midway through the kicking.
The video was obtained by the Albuquerque Journal.

Apple settles iPad trademark dispute with Chinese firm for $60M
Beijing, China (4E) – Apple Inc. has agreed to pay Shenzhen-based Proview Technology $60 million to settle their iPad trademark dispute, the Higher People's Court of Guangdong Province announced on Monday.
The settlement reached on June 25 paves way for the resumption of sale of Apple's iPad tablet in mainland China, the second biggest market of the iPhone maker after the U.S.
Proview Technology had sought the court's help to block the sale of the tablet in mainland China early this year claiming it owns the iPad brand. It asked Apple from $400 million to $3 billion for the right to use the name so the American firm can sell the product in the mainland.
Apple sued Proview last year alleging trademark infringement. It claimed ownership of the iPad name after buying it from Proview's Taiwan unit for $54,800 in 2009.
The Taiwan subsidiary registered iPad as its trademark in several countries, including China, in 2000, 10 years before Apple launched the iPad tablet.
However, Proview Shenzen said the right to use the trademark applies only to Hong Kong and Taiwan, not for the mainland.
