I recently received an email from a patient who had an ectopic pregnancy subsequent to her tubal reversal. Unfortunately, the pregnancy continued to the point of tubal rupture with the loss of the fallopian tube.
Patient's History
I was hoping you could help me understand why my ectopic pregnancy was not detected early enough to prevent the loss of my right tube. I need to know this for the future as after my surgery I have only my left tube remaining.
I went to my doctor at approximately 3 weeks pregnant and made sure that they understood the importance of checking for ectopic pregnancy. I gave them a copy of your instructions and told them my goal is to prevent losing my tube if it is ectopic, so I told them to please check and make sure it is not ectopic. They did blood work 3 times and did a vaginal ultrasound at approximately 4 weeks and said everything was normal and the sac was in the uterus, not the tube. They did not check anything again until I spotted Tuesday of this week. I went in Wednesday and they did a vaginal ultrasound and said it was ectopic with a heartbeat and I needed surgery and my tube would have to be removed.
My tube was removed because it was starting to rupture. I never expected that to happen because I took the precautions necessary.
Can you please tell me what normal pregnancy hormone levels are for each week of pregnancy versus ectopic hormone levels?
When is an ectopic visible on ultrasound? Could this have been prevented? Was there anything else that could have been done?
Role of Serum HCG in Early Pregnancy Monitoring
HCG levels alone do not differentiate between uterine and ectopic pregnancy. The HCG levels provide the earliest evidence of whether implantation has occurred successfully (but not where it has occurred) and indicate when ultrasound examination should be able to find a gestation sac if the pregnancy is in the uterine cavity. This occurs when serum HCG reaches 1500-2000 mIU/dL. If serum HCG levels are rising too slowly, or if ultrasound does not find a gestation sac in the uterus when HCG is at the level of 1500-2000, then the pregnancy is not a normal one. It could be outside of the uterus (ectopic) or it could be an abnormal pregnancy in the uterus (blighted ovum).
Role of Transvaginal Ultrasound
A careful transvaginal ultrasound exam can detect a normally developing pregnancy in the uterus very early. It is apparent in this case that the initial ultrasound findings were not interpreted correctly. How could this occur?
An intrauterine gestation sac is a dark oval shaped area of fluid surrounded by a bright white ring or halo (the trophoblastic tissue). Probably in this case there was a small amount of fluid in the uterine cavity that was mistakenly thought to be a gestation sac. This has been described as a "pseudo-sac". A pseudo-sac does not have the distinct white halo or ring of a true gestation sac.
In a normally developing uterine pregnancy, a follow-up ultrasound exam will show the presence of a yolk sac (the small circle within the gestation sac) within a week of the appearance of the gestation sac. If the initial ultrasound exam had been followed-up with another ultrasound scan, it would have shown that this was not a normal uterine pregnancy.
There is an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy following tubal reversal surgery. Our follow-up pregnancy statistics show that the risk of ectopic pregnancy remains constant with each pregnancy. In other words, it is the same for a first, second, third, or subsequent pregnancy after tubal reversal surgery. It is important, therefore, to monitor any pregnancy after tubal reversal early and closely.
Recommendations for early pregnancy monitoring are given on our website page entitled I'm Pregnant. Although the recomended tests were performed, the most critical one – the ultrasound exam to document the location of the gestation sac – was interpreted erroneously.
An experienced ultrasonographer should be able to differentiate between a true gestation sac and a pseudo-sac by the presence or absence of the bright halo surrounding the fluid filled sac. If there is any doubt, a repeat ultrasound exam looking for the appearance of a yolk sac should be performed.
Although ectopic pregnancy is not preventable, the complication of tubal rupture always should be. In the absence of clear ultrasound evidence of an intrauterine pregnancy, early treatment with Methotrexate is recommended. It is important to monitor serum HCG levels until the HCG level returns to less than 10 mIU/dL. This will prevent a possible ectopic pregnancy from advancing to the complication of tubal rupture.

Citizens of Spokane will soon notice Spokane Police Officers carrying at least one extra piece of equipment: body cameras.
Following a recommendation from the Use of Force Commission, the Spokane City Council voted unanimously to approve the purchase of body cameras for officers. The purchase amount totals over $730,000 dollars plus tax and shipping, though officers won't begin wearing the cameras until sometime next year.
The City Council said the body cameras are a step in the right direction.

Pair arrested in Rutland street disruptionBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | January 21,2013Two men were arrested Sunday night in Rutland after police from three agencies were called to disperse a crowd that gathered over a dispute on School Street.
More than 40 people were reportedly involved in a series of heated verbal and physical confrontations in the city's southwest neighborhood, Rutland Police Sgt. John Sly said.
"A lot of people came out to watch or get involved," Sly said.
In what he described as a "convoluted sequence of events" police were initially called to 36 Meadow Street at 4:23 p.m. for a reported fight.
At the scene, Sly said police found about 10 people arguing about the theft of a cell phone and a missing hat.
Sly said police left the scene believing that the parties would stay separated. But more than three hours later they were called back when some of the same people involved in the earlier dispute moved to 79 School St. where a crowd had
The size of the gathering was so great that city police called for backup from Vermont State Police and the Rutland County Sherriff's Department as well as another shift of officers coming on duty in the city.
Police also arrested two participants — 19-year-old Tiler Cormia and Nicholas Prior, 20, both of Rutland — on charges of disorderly conduct.

There are some single people that have perfected the art of lip service. I am sure you have met this type! They make lofty promises, lead people on, and generally talk a good game. If you ever discover that you are dating this type, beware. They may talk a big game but they have little to no action to back it up.
Dating does not have to be such a game of cat and mouse. Saying what you mean, meaning what you say, and being consistent goes a very, very long way. Men enjoy seeing a woman who is true to her word. Women love it when a guy is willing and able to prove he is who he says he is.
Of course it is great to hear beautiful words, but do they matter more when they are not reinforced with actions?
If a guy is telling a woman she is his girlfriend but when she isn't around he behaves like a totally free, unattached guy – does it matter? What is really interesting is that a lot of people get away with a lot of bad dating behavior because they can always talk their way out of it.
How do you hold someone accountable to their words, or can you? In a dating relationship, what is more important to you – actions or words?

Diva I would be here the entire morning on just the first paragraph alone. Not to seem cynical or cocky but I'm always blown away by some cat that's been cute enough or fine enough to believe that behavior works on every woman they encounter. What's even more amazing is the shock it brings when their smooth words fall on deaf ears. I'll nod and smile all day with smooth words and cookie cutter women traps. But until and unless I SEE actions align with all your sweet words, I'm not budging. You can make your mouth say anything.

Action speaks louder than words!! You can say anything, but if you don't follow it up with actions, then what was the purpose? If all we do is talk about things that we want to change in our life or relationship and never follow it up with actions, what good is it doing? Playing the game is a big part of dating, the problems a lot of people get caught up in the words and ignore the actions, because they have potential.

good morning guys. as the saying goes "don't talk about it, be about it". even with that, i'll always give mad props to anybody with mad talk game. at the end of the day, a good talk game is a tool. it's a character trait that some are just born with. ever seen a kid get caught with his hand in the cookie jar and find yourself amazed at his/her quick thinking when explaining why they are in the cookie jar? that's the start of maximizing your talk game. while i'm not always listening to or feeling the words that come out of someone's mouth i can appreciate the fact that someone is trying to get their words to work for them. i can't stand an old tongue tied joker who can't figure out what he's trying to say.

Good Morning Ladies!
Fast, smooth talkers is what cause a lot of folks to accept bad home loans they could not afford.
I give no props to those who have a good talk game but nothing to show for it.
To Ms. Bluzgirl.. U might want to accept not getting your back money for the door and the getting the flute back as a loss. A person who is living out of their car will probably sell everything to survive. So this does not continue to drag on (IMO) keep it moving and don't look back. This will only hurt your future development of becoming a well rounded person who can begin a new relationship with limited baggage.

elijah – thing is (guess i'm feeling all "urban" this morning) – don't hate the player, hate the game. was predatory lending jacked up? yep. did it wreak a lot of havoc? yep. still, those folks who got bamboozled were adults who could have prevented the situation that they allowed themselves to get into. smooth talkers may not necessarily be in it for material gain though i've seen them run game that produced financial gain. i've got a cousin driving a new audi that some side piece chick pays for. that's talk game. smooth talkers are in it for the digits, for the sex. smooth talkers get warnings instead of tickets or punishment.

so true the talkers can get away with — and get — a lot. Whether it be somebody paying their car note, or paying the rent, or giving them what they want. The game works. But at the end of the day, that game is all about that person getting over and getting what they want. It's all about them. Nobody who is all about themselves is a good mate, ever. Still, I can appreciate a talker, just to hear the quick tongue. But I wouldn't get to dating one, either.
Been there, done that.

Disco- Why does the consumer have to worry about getting a good product if you are advertising that you will give them a good product… Do what you say and promote and many folks would have one less thing in life to worry about.
In regards to your cousin, he represent the current sign of the times selfishness, no accountability and no respect. Really showing what is it to be a real man eh! lol

elijah – my grandmother always said "see a fool, use a fool". am i condoning? not necessarily but the reality is the reality. there's always going to be folks who use and folks who get used. it's all in perspective. you see my cousin as wrong for taking advantage. i see the chick who pays the car note as the fool in the equation.
lolalee – agreed. i appreciate and even respect the talk game but i'm not trying to hear all that BS.

@Disco-For every Soothsayer…There is a bigger Soothsayer. Your cousin will find out that Karma is a bytch.
June 5th, 2012
10:13 am
disco – You know I was gonna pass this topic by today and let y'all have it but I think something is slightly off with a person if they can find humor even to the slightest in people getting used. Nothing is cute or funny about that. Nothing is cute about a dude (or chick) that's mastered using people. If it was my cousin, I would be on the phone telling that chick to keep her money and that he's using her. I'm getting on off this thing because I don't want to stop the flow (as it seems to be moving along this morning) but it ain't right. Just because I'm not a victim, it's not funny when other are.
But I agree, I don't care how much it's a game and how much you've mastered and how you lack in morals and ethics, no stone goes unturned. He'll (and all other users), will get it paid back to them somewhere in life. Even if it's down to his precious little offspring. Yeah…..no it's never funny then.
Oh…morning folks

C – i'm not bragging on cousin. i know he's wrong. thing is – the chick knows she's being used. she knows he has a woman (heck, more than one). he didn't make her buy the car. i stand by my stance of "shame on her". this world is full of folks who set themselves up to be taken advantage of and those same folks want to whine and cry when they realize they've been played. they want to blame the user but the blame lies (in my opinion) primarily with them. i learned early in life not to blame folks for what i do.
June 5th, 2012
10:22 am
Action for sure! My ex showed me good actions for a long time, then it just turned to words. It's when the actions stopped that I decided to end it.
Elijah…thank you for your input. I don't know if you saw why the flute is so important to me. It belonged to my recently deceased friend. I would hope he's not cruel enough to not get that back to me. I'm really not counting on the money, but it doesn't hurt to try to get it. The flute means a lot to me and I will fight for that. He says it's in his storage unit and he hasn't had time to look for it. I've now given him a deadline to get it to me and I hope he complies so this doesn't turn ugly.
June 5th, 2012
10:23 am
disco – Yeah, I hear you. Still and even so, just because it's there for the using/taking it's also there to take a pass. Nobody is holding a gun to his head or any other user's head for that matter. I see chumps all day but just because they're a chump that says nothing to me about pouncing and taking advantage of.
You're blaming folks for being gullible and naieve but I blame folks for using folks when they can just as easily not do it. It goes both ways. Just like you can you also have it within your power to take a pass. Why don't y'all (family) take the high road and tell him to be a man and pay for his own? If you want it, work and pay for it?
June 5th, 2012
10:24 am
The most important thing is to be able to not get all caught up in the words and to notice the actions. I'm the type of woman who likes to hear "I love you" often, but if it isn't backed up with actions, then it really has no meaning.
June 5th, 2012
10:26 am
"In a dating relationship, what is more important to you – actions or words?"
I can only speak for myself – actions are more important. I have dated women all across the USA who would charm you to death with their words and break your heart with their actions. I learned the hard way. Watch what people do not what they say. Be careful who you trust.
June 5th, 2012
10:28 am
Paying folks rent, car notes, and giving them what they want is a con and if anybody wants to get with that you have my blessing. It may be smooth talking if anyone listens, I consider them smooth predators. Preying on people who are heart strung isn't mastering anything. I've been a part of that low lifestyle briefly now I'm not because it takes an emotionally detached human to pull that off and there's plenty of them around.

"…just because it's there for the using/taking it's also there to take a pass.
EXACTLY. Just because temptation is knocking at your door, doesn't mean you have to open it. Too many want to get over on the next person. If more put themselves in the alleged "victim's" shoes, maybe, just maybe, you'll pass on using that person. I know this is farfetched because there are too many greedy, conniving folk walking next to the good ones waiting to pick their pockets.

Blackfoote – Sho nuff. The dude that was 10 years my senior was soooo easy to get over on. I did it. I did. We (girlfriends) laughed at him. I got so much money out of him and felt nothing about it. Tricking starts waaaay before hitting the sheets. I never slept with that dude but I knew how to keep dangling in the front of him "the possibility of" Yeah, I was in my twenties and felt the same way too (back then). I even justified by saying "this ain't no booty swap" every time he put cash in my hand but I was fully aware that he did it believing eventually I would come around. I learned from that one experience using folks ain't right and definitely not funny when the lightbulb comes on for them. Like I've said before on here, buddy borderline stalked me because the realization set in that I was never gonna "do it" nor give him a real shot.
And to take the high road, I paid him back….some of the money. Nowhere near what he'd spent but the effort if nothing else to admit what I'd done was wrong and validate his feelings (of being used).

I have no respect for users. I will be honest and say that I fall hard and give as much as I can to my partner. I can be blind. I am very generous with myself and my things. It hurts bad to realize that you've been take advantage of. Yes…I'm learning life lessons to not give so freely, but I will not totally change myself just because one jerk used me. I have a big heart and I love hard. I just know that the next guy I get involved with won't need anything from me, except my love. My eyes are opening to the users and I will not put myself in that position again.

I dated a guy for a long time. We would argue about what he did. He would apologize and promise to be better. It would last 1-2 months and we would be back to square one. His apology was so sincere (or seemed) that I would forgive him. When we broke up I told him that I had no faith in his words and that my lesson from the relationship was "talk is cheap". People DO what they want to. He still sends texts to this day. Never know what you have until it's gone, but now all the words you used before can't be used now with any impact. What you say speaks louder than words.

The con happens and will continue, greed amplified is what the next generation has to look forward to.

@Kimmy ~ no one can climb on your back unless you bend over. A person is used because they allowed themselves to be used. Not talking about you, just in general.
What's worse for the person on the other end is that once their words have no impact on you and you feel liberated, they're left scratching their heads wondering what the hell is wrong with YOU….gotta love their stupidity.

Blackfoote – Thanks and I agree. I can only tell my kid but I'm far enough along in life to know, she has a young tender heart and the same way "love" reacted in us years ago (I still love love but I'm just not silly), it's going to react in her the same way. I try as best I can to shield her from users and heartbreakers and things going wrong but some things I know I can't. Some things, as with us, will be by trial and error. And frankly that's life. There's not a woman alive that's not had a pinch of heartache. The difference is not living your entire life asleep and hitting repeat until you're 35 or 40 to learn. So when I speak up, I'm speaking in her behalf and all the young women that's going to venture down the path of life.
Just this morning, a homeless dude was walking through the parking lot asking for money. He walked up on me before I realized…even though I was in the car and about to back out. There was an elderly dude pulling in and he pounced on him the moment he opened his car door. When I say elderly I'm not talking newly retired. I pulled back and waited. I rolled down my car window so I could hear. He asked the old man for money and he pulled out a dollar bill. He had the audacity to say he needed more….all because the man was old and vunerable. Yes he was saying he needed so much for this and so much for that. If he would have made one attempt to take anything from him I was gonna be all over him. I yelled out the window that he's young enough to work and it's wrong to take from the elderly. The old man asked him what I was saying and he said she's just being difficult. He then walked to my car and said "just take your mercedes benz and go" I said…"after you" He left. My point is, when it's within your power to do something and something right, dating not excluded….do it.

BF…also…he makes good money, so he won't be using me for a roof over his head or any other material items!!!! It's about time I've met someone who has their isht together!!!

Hey Bluz, do you think he will think you have your isht together? Don't get me wrong, not saying you don't, just that people see things differently.
Many want to meet someone who has their isht together, but there's aren't.

Leggs – 14 days on the couch…why? lol I was on the couch because I gave my mom and niece my bedroom. Plus when I came back in from having drinks, they were knocked out so I didn't want to disturb them with my off balance attempt to throw some pjs on. I actually fell asleep with all my clothes on. lol
June 5th, 2012
11:24 am
Leggs…I have most of my isht together. I am working on a few things…he knows about my mental issues. Doesn't know about the recent break up issues (unless our mutual friend told him). I'm getting that together so that when things start moving forward with us, I'll be over all of that. I have my own house, a good job (for 14 years), a new car, lots of close friends. I am a good catch, even with my few flaws.

Great comments Leggs, Blackfoote and Celisea.
People have been used for centuries by smooth talkers, is it not time for people to treat each other like how they would like to be treated.
@Bluzgirl…. With the possibility of starting relationship with the new guy, I think you will better your chances if you can walk away from your current situation.

I can tell you that my mom has said if things don't work out with Dr. Brit, she may be more disappointed than me! LOL! He's pretty perfect on paper and we have a good connection via text/emails. Just have to see how the connection is in person. I'm hoping for the best, but not putting all of my eggs into his basket. If I get a chance to date someone who lives here, I will. I'll just keep a lock on my heart for a while and not jump in like I have in the past. Time to change the mold!

Awww, the fallacy of technology….."He's pretty perfect on paper and we have a good connection via text/emails."
Not trying ride you Bluz, but be careful about the stock placed in romanticized digital interactions!

The rebuilding of the Indianapolis Colts is taking a toll on season ticket renewals.
After saying goodbye to number 18, along with several other players, Colts season ticket holders gave the organization a number it hasn't seen in a while.
According to the team, 87 percent of season ticket holders have renewed their tickets for next season, that's compared to 93 percent last year.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Larry Hall, Vice President of Ticket Operations says the last time season ticket renewals were below 90 percent Peyton Manning was just starting his career.
"We've been over 90% for the last decade for sure," Hall said.
Though the numbers are down, Hall says the team is still in a good position because it is once again building around a number one draft pick and generating momentum through the hiring of new GM Ryan Grigson and head coach Chuck Pagano.
"We're off some from last year, but there's a path of optimism," Hall said. "Having that first pick in the draft is a big deal. We're excited about it and there's a lot of excitement in our building."
The Colts season ticket renewal deadline actually came a week before the team released Manning and cut several notable players such as Joseph Addai, Gary Brackett and Dallas Clark.
The decline in renewals didn't surprise a lot of fans who expressed their thoughts on the Fox59 News Facebook page Monday night.
"All of the personnel changes were made AFTER season ticket money was due or the number would have been much lower," wrote Colts fan Chris Pedigo.
"Indy showing its typical fair weather fantod," wrote Jeff Manback.
One season ticket holder who opted not to renew for 2012, disputed similar comments about "fair weather fans".
"Every single one of you must have $2k sitting around burning a hole in your pocket then. It's not being a fair-weather fan not renewing my season tix after the miserable season I just sat through," wrote Alex Comella. "I can still cheer my team on just as much from my couch without wasting all that money to be disappointed each week."
Despite the uncertainty around the team during the renewal process, Hall says he believes the economy was a bigger factor in fans opting not to renew their tickets.
"I think our fans are very knowledgeable and they understand the circumstances that led to some of the changes that have happened with our organization in the last few months," Hall said.

Jon Lester Accepts Responsibility for Rangers Edging Their Way Back Into Game 3 of Red Sox Sweep (Video)
Found May 05, 2013 on NESN.com:
PLAYERS: Jon Lester
TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers
TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers
The Red Sox were swept in a series for the first time this season by the Texas Rangers, halting the positive momentum the Sox had been building throughout April. Starter Jon Lester pitched six innings in the loss, and despite his offense giving him a considerable cushion, was unable to stave off the Rangers as they tied things up in the sixth. Lester admitted after the game that he could have done a better job of minimizing the damage done by the Rangers' offense. Check out the video above to hear what else Lester had to say.

Suzuki 's line-up of cars that will be displayed at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show strongly suggests the direction these guys are planning to go: "Let's do away with the high-performance and focus on future global compact cars!"
One of the models that's scheduled to be in attendance is the Suzuki Regina Concept, a lightweight minicar that Suzuki is promoting as a future city-dweller. The Regina's exterior design hints at the green initiative the company going for. The Lime Green paint finish is a pretty strong indication of that, as is the the overall shape of the car that makes it look like a turtle.
All joking aside, the set-up is pretty cool, especially the contrasting white roof that adds a touch of flavor to the car without being a little too flashy. Apparently, the Regina Concept also has small rear view cameras tucked into the rear and semi-covered rear wheels that are made possible by the odd crease lines on the body panels.
Inside, the Regina Concept also carries the same two-color finish of the exterior, which, when combined to the dark grey surfaces, adds a serene and earthy tone. There's not much to go around inside, which might suggest a minimalistic approach from Suzuki. All you can really take from it is that it's got a 2+2 seating configuration and a seemingly out-of-place steering wheel, a tilted center-mounted display that appears to be transparent, and pixelated patterns on the seats and floor mats.
More details about the Regina Concept will be revealed at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show so be sure to be around when that happens in December!

Giants re-sign backup QB Carr
East Rutherford, NJ (Sports Network) - The New York Giants re-signed quarterback David Carr on Thursday.
Carr, entering his 12th NFL season, completed 2-of-3 passes in two games last season as Eli Manning's backup. In 2011, he did see action behind Manning during the Giants' championship season.
Selected with the overall No. 1 draft choice by Houston in 2002, Carr has thrown for 14,452 yards with 65 touchdowns and 71 interceptions in 94 career games.
After five seasons as the starter with the Texans, Carr spent 2007 with Carolina before joining the Giants for the first time. He was Manning's backup for the 2008 and 2009 seasons before a year in San Francisco, then returned to New York in 2011.

Hemsedal, Norway
Good for safety, community, convenience and Grimm-style fairytales.
Scandinavian ski areas have a strong reputation for their positive attitude and character in bringing children on to the snow with neither the over-regimented teaching systems nor the other, over-sentimental "your child can do no wrong" extreme. Instead, it's a common-sense approach cutting down the middle, with safety, caring and a relaxed style to learning, meaning minimal stress for all.
At Hemsedal, there are gentle slopes close to the base, separate areas on the mountain for kids and free helmets with rentals. Located right next to the slopes, the Trollia Kindergarten for children aged three months and older offers both care from a professional staff and facilities for parents, including a kitchen for preparing lunch. Children's ski school begins at age three with "Snow Gnomes" who become "Small Trolls" once they've mastered the wedge position on the nursery slope.
The all-new 6Star TTR World Snowboarding Championships arrives in Oslo Feb. 12-19.
The World Snowboarding Championships is a new addition to the TTR World Snowboard Tour this year, and features halfpipe, quarterpipe and slopestyle competitions with a huge prize purse worth $500,000.
The WSC is to take place every four years and is kicking off in , where a highlight will be the monster quarterpipe event in the legendary Holmenkollen ski jumping arena.
The World Snowboarding Championships (WSC) is the first championships run by snowboarders. It is developed and owned by the Ticket To Ride (TTR) and World Snowboard Federation (WSF).
The 2011/12 season marks the 10th anniversary of the TTR World Tour. New for the TTR Tour this year is the introduction of the World Tour Ranking system that has now broken out to rank riders in individual disciplines: Overall Tour Ranking, Halfpipe Tour Ranking, Slopestyle Tour Ranking and Big Air Tour Ranking.
The 6Star Tour calendar began with the Shaun White Oakley Air & Style Beijing in December and then it was on to , Switzerland for the O'Neill Evolution in January. The next event is the The Billabong Air & Style in Feb. 2-4 before the World Snowboarding Championships in Oslo Feb. 12-19. From here riders will compete at the Burton European Open in Feb. 25 to March 3, before the Burton US Open in , where TTR will crown the Overall, Halfpipe and Slopestyle Tour Champions. The combined prize purse of all 6Star events for the 2011/12 season is worth a whopping $1.15-million USD.
TTR World Snowboard Tour 2011/12 - Northern Hemisphere Promo
Pre-Christmas skiing often means cheaper ski passes, fewer people on the slopes and shorter lift queues. This, combined with choosing a snowsure ski resort, can make for a winning combination.
Wondering where to find snow in December? OnTheSnow has compiled a list of the top 10 resorts for early season skiing:
1. , France opens mid-November. As Europe's highest major resort (2300m), it is naturally one of the continent's most snowsure, right from the start to the end of winter. It makes up part of the Three Valleys ski area (600km) and skiers can reach a height of 3200 metres. The season kicks off each year with the Ski Force Winter Tour, giving skiers and boarders the chance to test the new models of more than 15 top ski manufacturers for free and benefit from professional advice.
2. in Austria is a small, traditional village with a largely pedestrianised centre. All the runs except those going into the resort are set above 2000 metres and many are north-facing so the snow quality is good. Skiers can reach a height of 2872m. It is part of the Silvretta Arena, boasting runs for all levels and one of the best snowparks in the Alps, the snowARTpark.
3. in France combines with to make up the Espace Killy ski area (320km). The high altitude of the resort (2100m) means that Tignes' snow-sure factor is one of the highest in France. What Tignes lacks in character, it makes up for in cost: accommodation is more reasonably priced than in neighbouring Val d'Isere.
4. , Austria is Europe's highest traditional village and is one of the first top open each year, in mid-November. Its high-altitude slopes reach a maximum of 3082 metres. Those wondering where to find snow in December will be please to know this resort comes with a snow guarentee (or your money back) and is one of your best bets for a white Christmas.
5. , Switzerland opens early November. It offers 100 kilometres of high-altitude slopes stretching up to 3500 metres (including the glacier). The picturesque resort is car-free, which means vehicles are parked at a large car-park on arrival at the edge of the village and only small electric taxis, mostly owned by the hotels. Strict planning regulations have maintained traditional Swiss chalet style properties.
6. , Norway is set in the Hallingdal Valley and has established a reputation as the country's premier ski and snowboard resort. It may not sound like snowsure conditions, with a maximum skiing altitude of 1450 metres, but when you're this far north, altitude isn't a problem as almost all precipitation falls as snow. In fact Hemsedal has one of the highest snowfall levels in Europe and is snowsure from early November until May. Hemsedal village has an apline charm and a natural, unspoilt setting. The 42 kilometres of terrain offer a good range of runs for all levels and five snowparks. You'll also find 220 kilometres of cross-country trails.
7. is one of the oldest and most picturesque villages in Switzerland. It has long been popular with hardcore skiers yet remains relatively unknown as an international resort. The resort belongs to the Andermatt Gotthard Oberalp Arena ski area and its upper slopes (up to 2963m) open mid-November. Andermatt is particularly popular with snowboarders for its half-pipe and epic off-piste.
8. in Austria is easily accessible, just 90 kilometres from Salzburg. Its 90-kilometre ski area (up to 2315m) opens mid-November and the snow is often good enough to ski all the way back to your hotel.
9. , Colorado boasts snowsure conditions - in large part due to its tree-lined slopes offering protection from the wind. It has some of the most extensive expert skiing in the USA, as well as groomed cruising slopes. The River Run base gives Keystone an Alpine village feel, with shops, bars and restaurants around a square.
10. , Canada, "It's the Snow" is the motto, with over 750cm of powder falling annually. The resort opens mid-November and is famous for its 'snow ghosts' - snow-caked trees that resemble haunting shapes.
Read our for where to find snow throughout the season.
Related Stories: ;
Norway's ski resorts open in November - about a month earlier than most alpine resorts - with powder conditions and empty slopes.
While leading resorts in The Alps offer skiing up to 3000m, the highest skiing in Norway is 1497m, but when you're this far north, altitude isn't a problem as almost all precipitation falls as snow. In fact there's no shortage of the whitestuff in Norway - last winter three metres of powder fell on the slopes.
Norway's ski areas are not as developed as the The Alps; there is miles of untamed wilderness with lakes and mountains as far as the eyes can see.

Today, Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) denounced a proposal made by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to increase the cost of a first-class stamp from 46 cents to 49 cents starting on January 26, 2014. Under the plan, first-class mail postage for postcards and packages would also increase 3 cents, or 6.5 percent. CAGW has long opposed consumer price increases, preferring for Congress to let the USPS operate more like a private-sector business in order to control its operations, cut costs, and reduce the risk of a taxpayer bailout.
According to a September 25, 2013 article by USA Today, the price hike would increase additional USPS revenue by $2 billion a year. The proposed price hike comes at a time when the USPS governing board claims the increase is needed due to the agency's precarious financial condition, which includes a congressional mandate to fund billions of dollars in future retirement benefits for employees. The proposed increase signals lingering financial challenges for the USPS, which posted a $15.9 billion net loss in 2012 and expects annual losses to burgeon to $18.2 billion by 2015, accumulating $92 billion in debt by 2016.
In a recent WasteWatcher report, CAGW highlighted the USPS' efforts to strengthen the agency by leveraging opportunities to implement better business practices. Unfortunately, all efforts at structural reform made by the USPS have been blocked by Congress, thus increasing the risk of failure and a taxpayer bailout. Although a world leader in "work-sharing," the USPS does virtually nothing, including logistics, transportation, and mail services, that could not be done, and done more efficiently, by private-sector companies.
When postal management has attempted to move forward with overdue modernization initiatives, such as five-day delivery, it is saddled with an intransigent labor force that resists modernization. At the same time, Congress is fixated on short-term, "feel-good" measures that pose as postal reforms, instead of focusing on the long-term financial health of the USPS.
"USPS teeters on the brink of financial ruin. As with the rest of the nation's fiscal problems, Congress is ignoring the big picture," said CAGW President Tom Schatz. "Accordingly, Congress should resist parochial pressures and allow the USPS to react as any business would to the problem of falling demand for its services: by cutting costs, not increasing prices."
CAGW is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement in government.

LOUSIVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) – Hundreds of Rubbertown residents sounded off Monday night. Some people are furious that the city didn't notify them after last week's explosion and fire at Carbide Industries. These residents held signs that read "we want to know." Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer organized Monday's meeting and gave people a timeline of what emergency crews did right after the explosion, and simply told the crowd that the city messed up.
Carbide Industries general manager also addressed the room. He says the explosion that killed two plant employees is being investigated, but says early reports say the source of the explosion was a furnace inside the plants control room. He also apologized to residents.
After the city admitted that there was a breakdown in communication and that R-Call, a neighborhood emergency phone system, was never updated. Mayor Fischer said there will be changes.
Metro Safe will now control updating the R-Call system and the mayor says they will hire a technology company to come up with new, advanced ways to notify people, possibly through text messages or phone calls. This system is expected to be up and running by June.

Uterus transplantation
|This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (June 2011)
The uterine transplant is the surgical procedure whereby a healthy uterus is transplanted into an organism whose uterus is absent or diseased. As part of the normal mammalian sexual reproduction process, a diseased or absent uterus does not allow for normal embryonic implantation to occur, effectively rendering a female infertile. This phenomenon is known as uterine factor infertility (UFI). The uterine transplant is currently being proposed as a potential treatment to this form of infertility. The world's first successful uterine transplant was conducted by a team of doctors from Akdeniz University Hospital in southern Turkey on the 9th of August 2011.[improper synthesis?][1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
In 1896, Emil Knauer published the first study of ovarian autotransplantation documenting normal function (in a rabbit) and that led to the investigation of uterine transplantation in 1918.[9][10] Eraslan, Hamernik and Hardy, in 1964 and 1966, were the first to perform an animal (dog) autotransplantation of the uterus and subsequently deliver a pregnancy from that uterus.[11] In 2011 Edwin Ramirez M.D, et al. demonstrated that a pregnancy can be carried in a sheep transplanted uterus under the influence of immunosuppressive therapy.[12] These experiments initiated in 2001 as a Ramirez family project at University of Texas, Odessa and ended in Bogota, Colombia at the La Salle University.[citation needed]
In humans[edit]
In 1931, Lili Elbe died from organ rejection three months after receiving one of the world's earliest uterine transplants.[13] With the availability of in vitro fertilization in 1978, uterine transplantation research was deferred (Confino et al. 1986).
In Saudi Arabia in 2000, a uterine transplant was performed by Dr. Wafa Fagee from a 46 year old hysterectomy patient into a 26 year old recipient[14] whose own uterus had hemorrhaged after childbirth. The transplanted uterus functioned for 99 days; however it ultimately needed to be removed after its failure due to blood clotting. Within the medical community there is some debate as to whether or not the transplant can truly be considered successful.[15] Post-operatively, the patient had two spontaneous menstrual cycles, followed by amenorrhoea; exploratory laparotomy confirmed uterine necrosis. The procedure has raised some moral and ethical concerns, which have been addressed in the literature.[16]
The first mother-to-daughter womb transplant was done by Swedish doctors at Gothenburg University.[17]
A 21-year-old Turkish woman named Derya Sert, who was born without a uterus, was the first woman in history to have received a womb from a deceased donor. The operation, performed on August 9, 2011 by Dr. Ömer Özkan, Dr. Munire Erman Akar and their team at Akdeniz University Hospital in Antalya, Turkish Riviera was and still is the world's first successful uterus transplant surgery. Ms. Sert has had 6 menstrual periods post-surgery and it is said that the uterus is fully functioning. However, the Turkish medical team who performed the delicate surgery is still cautious about declaring the operation a complete success. "The surgery was a success. But we will be successful when she has her baby", Ozkan said. "For now, we are happy that the tissue is living".[18][19]
On 12 April 2013, Akdeniz University announced that Derya Sert was pregnant.[20][21][22] The statement made by the university hospital also added that Sert would give birth by C-section to prevent any complications. On 14 May 2013, it was announced that Sert terminated her pregnancy in its 8th week following a routine examination where doctors failed to detect a fetal heartbeat.[23]
Uterus transplantation starts with uterus retrieval surgery on the donor. Working techniques for this exist for animals, including primates.[24] It may need to be stored, e.g., for transportation to the location of the donor. Studies on cold-ischemia/reperfusion indicate an ischemic tolerance of >24 h.[24] The following insertion procedure, with vascular anastomosis, has not been fully developed in animal models, indicated by frequent thrombosis formation.[24]
The Montreal Criteria for the Ethical Feasibility of Uterine Transplantation[edit]
"The Montreal Criteria for the Ethical Feasibility of Uterine Transplantation" were developed at McGill University and published in Transplant International.[16] The Montreal Criteria are a set of criteria deemed to be required for the ethical execution of the uterine transplant in humans. These findings were presented at the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics' 20th World Congress in Rome in October 2012.[25] An update to "The Montreal Criteria for the Ethical Feasibility of Uterine Transplantation" has since been published in Fertility and Sterility[26]

Arizona State Sun Devils
ASU AD: Notre Dame would rather play Rice or Temple
Near as anyone can tell, Arizona State would still like to host Notre Dame at Sun Devil Stadium in 2014, yet the Fighting Irish have little interest in taking on the Sun Devils.
However, that issue is not yet officially settled, meaning there is still some negotiating to be done and some conversations to be had between the schools.
"Talking to them as recently as two hours ago, we're still in discussions," ASU athletic director Steve Patterson told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Tuesday afternoon.
What, exactly, is being discussed is not entirely clear. Notre Dame, having moved to the ACC, is trying to free up a spot on the schedule to take on another conference foe. However, ASU is not exactly pleased with the idea of seeing one of the biggest draws on its 2014 schedule bail so late in the process. Notre Dame, who Arizona State will play on October 5 of this year in Cowboys Stadium, was in the 2012 BCS Championship Game and would provide a big early-season matchup for coach Todd Graham and the Sun Devils.
"I think they're excited about their new TV contract with the ACC, so they think it's probably not as beneficial to come to Tempe and take on Todd's team," Patterson said. "I think they've got a football coach who would prefer to play Rice and Temple.
"But we'll keep talking and see where we can get."
Rice, who is a member of Conference USA, went 7-6, whereas Temple, as part of the Big East, finished with a 4-7 mark.
The Devils, on the other hand, finished 2012 with an 8-5 record and appear to be on the upswing as a program.

Public finance management (PFM) is at the very heart of how governments translate public resources into development results.
Public finance management (PFM) used by governments to mobilise, allocate and account spending for public finances. Weak PFM systems in developing countries are a major constraint on delivering services to the public and, as more governments and donors prefer to deliver aid through domestic systems, PFM reforms have become ever more important.
Our programme is a leader in research on PFM issues in developing and transition countries, focusing on the following key areas:
- diagnosis of PFM system performance through tools such as the 'Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability' (PEFA) framework;
- development of recommendations for government-led and donor-supported PFM reform strategies in developing and transition countries, and in fragile states;
- reinforcement of accountability structures by strengthening actors such as official oversight bodies and civil society organisations that demand information on budget processes;
- evaluation of approaches to strengthen country PFM systems through aid modalities such as general budget support, sector budget support and joint trust funds;
- improved understanding of the political economy of PFM reform to assist policy makers in their choices and understand their specific impact across countries;
- new research under development aims to improve understanding of the relationship between PFM reforms and improvements in public sector performance and government service delivery.
