Copper Rises to Two-Week High on Europe GDP Growth
Copper futures rose to a two-week high as Europe's economic growth topped estimates by analysts, bolstering prospects for increasing metal demand. Tin posted the biggest gain in more than three months.
Gross domestic product in the euro zone expanded 0.3 percent last quarter, European Union data showed today, more than the 0.2 percent median forecast of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. The dollar fell to the lowest this year against a basket of 10 currencies, boosting the investment appeal of of commodities.
"Any time you have GDP numbers or growth numbers that beat expectations, there's going to be an underlying assumption that demand for all raw commodities will be better," Tim Evans, the chief market strategist at Long Leaf Trading Group in Chicago, said in a telephone interview. "That would apply to copper."
Copper futures for March delivery gained 0.4 percent to settle at $3.2645 a pound at 1:21 p.m. on the Comex in New York. Earlier, the price reached $3.27, the highest for a most-active contract since Jan. 28.
On the London Metal Exchange, copper for delivery in three months rose 0.6 percent to $7,150 a metric ton ($3.24 a pound). Zinc, aluminum and lead climbed.
Tin rose 1.8 percent to $22,975 a ton, the biggest gain since Oct. 22. The settlement topped the 100-day moving average.
"Technicals are driving markets," Vicky Sanders, head of analytics sales at Marex Spectron Group in London, said in an e-mail.

Historical Traveler Reviews Grand Hotel de la Minerve Rome
It was grand!
I'd read some horror stories about Rome hotels, so I did a lot of research, including reading reviews of many hotels on this site before booking.
The hotel is beautifully appointed, from the stained glass ceiling in the lobby to the modern Italian room decor. We had a non-smoking standard room, which was not huge but certainly adequate, with a real king size bed, nice sized marble bath and air conditioning. The breakfast buffet, which was included in our rate, had a great selection of quality hot and cold items. The pastries were especially good. We had excellent service from all of the staff.
The Grand enjoys a fanastic location about a block away from the Piazza della Rotunda and the Pantheon. It's also situated near the major thoroughfares we used to walk to the Colliseum and Forum, the Vatican, Trevi Fountain, etc, and yet it was very quiet.
As for value, I don't think it's realistic to expect what we're used to in North America. So if location and quality are important to you, try the Grand Minerve.
Beyond expectations
I have visited Rome many times over the past ten years and always wanted to stay at the Minerve. The location is just perfect, unlike most of the other luxury hotels stuck out on the via Veneto and beyond. I was encouraged by the positive reviews on this site to take the plunge and pay up to stay at the Minerve on our recent trip to Rome for Easter. I was not disappointed.We booked through the hotel's website ------------------- (pretty hard to find on the search engines). Having read previous reviews we decided to plump for a deluxe room, at €430 a night some €70 more expensive than a standard. I requested a room with a balcony and a view of the piazza, which was confirmed directly by the hotel reservation desk.When we arrived we noticed that only two rooms overlooking the piazza have a balcony but the hotel had honoured the reservation and ours was one of them! The room itself was enormous, tastefully decorated in light colours and modern furnishings, so unlike most Italian "luxury" rooms. The bathroom by contrast was extremely small and a bit basic, but we could live with that when everything else was so right. And having the balcony made all the difference as we began and ended each evening with a drink while we watched life go by in the piazza below.The staff were all friendly and helpful, although there are some Italian oddities like having to register to use the internet access. The only criticism I would make of the hotel is that the price of sundries is extortionate, even for a 5* hotel. €7 for a beer from the minibar, €110 for a bottle of NV champagne! We soon solved this problem however when we found a small supermarket just round the corner.All in all, the Minerve was better than I dared to expect. It will certainly be my preferred stay in Rome from now on.
Fabulous in every way
This was truly one of the most beautiful hotels I have found. The location could not be better, right next to the Pantheon and the nicest staff you could want. The breakfast was hugh and it was the first hotel in Europe that actually had kleenex in the bathroom!!! Rooms were beautifully furnished complete with in-room coffee/tea pot!! I cannot recommend this hotel enough. We are planning on another trip to Rome in November and will be booking this hotel again and I can't wait.
I wish I lived there!
I have been going to Rome regularly for the past 20 years, and I have had every possible hotel experience there, for great to horrid. Only three years ago I started going to the Minerve, and I have not changed my favourite hotel since then. In fact, whenever the hotel was fully booked, I changed my business schedule rather than going anywhere else.
Excellent rooms, superb service, perfect location, easy communication with any part of the city. If you can afford it, stay at the Minerve.
Faboulous Location and Accomodations!!
I had a wonderful time during New Year's Eve 2003. The Hotel Minerva has a wonderful staff that was there to offer a helping hand every time I needed one. A very courteous staff and wonderfully decorated rooms.
The gentleman at the front desk upgraded us upon check in. I had a wonderfully spacious room with a large marble bathroom. I had 2 large windows that you can sit on the ledge and listen to the violin players down the block. Also my view faced the marvellous Pantheon. I loved this hotel in every way. I highly recommend it!
Fantastic hotel
December 2003
We have just returned from our Honeymoon at the Minerve grand Hotel and it was lovely, very plush!The staff were fantastic and we were upgraded to a suite. The bar is expensive but wonderful with a piano player and nibbles of panatone and chocolates. The location is excellent as we were only 40 minutes walk from anywhere in Rome and also right next door to the Panathon.We would definatly stay at the hotel again.
Enjoyed this hotel
Just spent five lovely nights at this hotel. Location was great as was the service. We were upgraded to a suite upon check in! Rooms were spotless and quiet. Most guests were European, so you could not get an American newspaper. Concierge was very helpful. Would definitely stay there again
Generally excellent, but with some lapses
By and large, this is a wonderful hotel. The location is superb, as it is about a block away from the Pantheon -- and right across the street from the Santa Maria Sopra Minerve (a Gothic church that contains Michelangelo's statue of The Risen Christ.)
The rooms are impeccable and large, and both I am some friends of mine had rooms with 12- or 15-foot ceilings. Housekeeping staff are the best I've ever encountered -- somehow they manage to make perhaps 3 visits to each room daily, yet without being obtrusive. My one beef about my room was that the air conditioning -- despite being set to run full-blast -- didn't seem to be able to manage anything below about 75 degrees F.
The front-office staff (check-in, cashier, conceirge, etc.) were generally quite professional, although a friend of mine in a wheelchair had some significant conflict with the concierge over a request for a taxi with a wheelchair lift. While perhaps the original failure to order this kind of taxi might have been due to a simple misunderstanding, the concierge tried to persuade my friend to take a taxi without a lift by asserting that it might be "hours" or "days" before a lift-equipped taxi would arrive. Fortunately, the wonderful lady in charge of transporation managed to order a lift-equipped van that arrived about 30 minutes later, and the concierge was left fuming because the inadequacy of his efforts had been exposed.
A relatively minor but infuriating lapse concerned one of the hotel phone operators. The hotel services guide contained no information on room-to-room dialing, so I would call the operator and ask to be connected to my friends' room. The first day of my visit, a pleasant female operator connected me every time. The next day, however, a male operator said: "Dial the room number. Thank you. Goodbye." and then hung up on me.
Finally, the hotel had a shortage of English-language papers in the lobby. Surely a 5-star hotel can do better than one or two copies of USA Today.
Really enjoyed our stay
For starters the location is wonderful. It is literally across the street from the Pantheon and a short and enjoyable stroll to the Piazza Navona. We ate in all of the restaurants in the hotel and thought the food was terrific. The best part of the hotel is the rooftop restaurant. It has a view which encompass the entire city. Decor in our large room was contemporary, bright and cheerful. People in the hotel could not have been more helpful. I would go back tomorrow for another stay and recommend hotel highly.
I stayed at this hotel 2 years ago in one of their suites. I was treated with the utmost respect and thoroughlly enjoyed my stay there. When I return to Rome, I will stay there again. Although it is a bit pricey, the service makes up for it all and the rooms a clean and furnished with everything you could need.

Fighters' Demands Open Old Wounds In Central America
By DAVID GONZALEZ
Published: August 19, 2002
PLAN DE SÁNCHEZ, Guatemala— The names of the dead are painted on the chapel wall, surrounded by grisly scenes of helicopters dropping bombs and soldiers killing women in a 1982 massacre of 184 people, who were tortured, shot and burned. The memorial, like those in cemeteries and chapels throughout this hilly region, demands jail for the killers and justice for the victims.
Down the steep and crooked mountain road that leads to the town of Rabinal, another list is being compiled. That one seeks a form of justice too, but not the kind grieving relatives expected. During the past two months, thousands of civil patrollers, the very men who helped wipe out villages at the height of Guatemala's civil war in the early 1980's, have submitted their names on lists to seek payment from the government for their deadly service.
The patrollers say they, too, are victims, contending that they were forced under threat of death to leave their farms and villages to work with the army to rout leftist guerrillas. Though many of the men were dragooned, many others also used the patrols to settle old feuds or steal land and cattle.
They have re-emerged to make political demands, alarming many people in a country where the 36-year civil war ended with mostly unfulfilled promises for the victims, and with nothing for the patrollers except their demobilization.
Juan Manuel Jerónimo, who lost his wife and children in the massacre, said: ''How can they pay those who were responsible for massacres, when the victims have not been taken into account? To do that would be mocking us.''
Central America was scorched in the cold-war years, caught up in a complicated array of civil wars, sometimes lasting decades, that finally ended in peace agreements and the hope that the societies would finally heal. But in El Salvador, Nicaragua and particularly Guatemala, the foot soldiers of those wars are complaining that promises made or implied in the peace accords have never been fulfilled, and that they are mired in deep poverty.
The patrollers' demands are the starkest reminder that the peace accords across Central America have left a legacy of former combatants who feel abandoned to poverty. The social and economic problems that fueled the conflicts continue to fester, bedeviling governments with political battles they had hoped were over.
Many of the former combatants see themselves as pawns of the cold war who were useful in holding the line against Communism and then cast aside when the wars ended as the world's attention turned elsewhere. The patrols, while demobilized, have not given up their old networks, or their demands, raising the fear that they could re-emerge to resolve their complaints in the way they know, with weapons and anger.
Accords were either too hasty, as in Nicaragua, or too ambitious, as in Guatemala. In either case, the inability to help the former combatants return to society with land and jobs is made all the more difficult by the inability of the region's governments to address widespread poverty or improve rural development.
''The whole issue of reintegration is the greatest challenge in all postwar countries,'' said Manuel Orozco, Central America project director at Inter-American Dialogue, a policy analysis group in Washington. ''It is greater when you are dealing with informal combatants like the patrollers or the contras. They did not have legitimacy in practical terms, and they did not enjoy the benefits of the peace process in Nicaragua, El Salvador or Guatemala.''
Few people would say Guatemala has reaped the benefits of peace, after a conflict that claimed 200,000 victims. The agreements promised land, education and projects for the indigenous peasants, who accounted for most of the dead.
The timetable set for even modest pilot projects in housing and other social services has been pushed back for years. Hordes of squatters regularly invade private farms in hopes of eking out a living. Human rights advocates who have brought genocide charges against the country's rulers continue to face death threats.
''The national program to compensate the victims has lost force,'' said Rosalina Tuyuc, who leads an association of war widows. ''The majority of the widows have received nothing.''
Nevertheless, President Alfonso Portillo is considering paying $2,600 apiece to former patrollers after 1,500 of them blocked roads near the Mayan ruins of Tikal.
Although the accords abolished the patrols, the lawmakers of the ruling Guatemalan Republican Front have organized regional meetings with them. Most people believe that the proposed payments -- to be financed by a tax on checking account transactions -- are being promised by politicians hoping to win votes in the presidential election next year.
The Rev. Gonzalo Villa, the rector of the Rafael Landivar University, said the government's reorganizing of the patrollers was a violation of the peace accords. ''Once they are organized to get money or benefits, they will continue to be used,'' Father Villa said. ''It is very worrisome, but it is all part of the enormous steps back the government has taken.''
But Vice President Francisco Reyes was reported to have said they deserved payment for ''a job performed.''

Towards a Real-Time Implementation of a Physical Modelling Based Percussion Synthesizer
This paper presents work carried out with the objective of designing a novel percussion synthesizer based on a physical model of a plate-based percussion instrument. The algorithm has been implemented in real-time for the first time, on a Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) chip allowing a number of parameters such as excitation value, stroke location and plate stiffness, to be changed in real-time. This presents the player with a number of new modes of playability but requires the definition and design of a flexible interface that gives the extensive access to the sound world of the synthesis model. Details of the hardware implementation architecture are put forward as well as fixed point/floating point computation aspects that impact the instrument's playability.

The LAAT craft was silent, the only noise heard was the engines of the two crafts swooshing down above a silent forest and heading towards a city that the natives call Moscow. During the many weeks of guerilla attacks and following surrounding of the military, the city had been much turned into rubble. As the two LAAT/i craft flew over the city, the gunners were scanning about with their weapons in search for enemies. The ships did get safely to what is known as the Red Square and let the teams out before heading off again. A minute later, one of them was hit by a rocket as it was swooping upwards next to the church tower. The second LAAT rose more quickly, opening fire and soon the top of the tower came crashing down upon itself. Th craft then continued off again.
Jaguar pulled out his WESTAR and a map of the city provided by the government.
"Scans show no movement, sir. Where should we start?" the recon asked and looked at the captain through his helmet's visor.

Overall, it feels like an area where not many minifigs go, with the overgrown path and damaged / rundown tower.
Just one thing that I don't feel is quite right. The lower part of the tower is still mostly intact, which seems out of place with the rest of the scene. Maybe make it look a bit more rundown?

Based on other retailer data, and using Office Depot as a proxy, this will drop massively tomorrow.
"Office Depot also faces broader industry issues such as heightened competition from online sellers and a shift in the use of office technology that has put pressure on sales."
Be smart and preserve your cash.
Damn good foresight and call behavioraltrader. I don't suppose you have a newsletter to follow?
Hill, thanks.
No I don't have a newsletter, but if you like you can click my yahoo handle to see what I am interested in, i.e. shorted ZQK tonight, should be a bloodbath tomorrow, but we shall see.
Good luck!
Staples is not Office Depot. Staples is huge in online sales. I have no idea why buying online is all the rage. Better to hold what you are looking for - see if it is indeed a good item, then have it bought and out the door than to blindly buy online, in most cases for same or higher price, then wait for the item, then if incorrect have to return it by mail --- more effort. There are some items which are less expensive bought online -- this is true. On the balance, I like to buy in the store. I will hold the stock and expect it to gain back a couple to three bucks it has lost recently.
Sentiment: Hold
"Better to hold what you are looking for - see if it is indeed a good item, then have it bought and out the door than to blindly buy online"
This is what online reviews are for. Reviews from many verified buyers serve as aggregate data to make informed purchases. You won't likely be able to open up an item in store to closely inspect it. Even if you could, I'd still say aggregate data from a number of verified buyers would still be a better measure of product quality since previous buyers could comment on the product after using it for an extended time frame.
I covered today at nearly a 2 point profit. This stock has a tendency to bounce after bad news, and the market is just crazy full with gamblers chasing returns, so I won't be surprised if it goes up tomorrow.
Good luck to all!
Good call!... The fact that this market has been roaring over the last few quarters, and SPLS continued to trend back down to around its Great-Recession lows of '08/'09 in the low teens showed that neither analysts nor management was willing to put their money behind the stock. Furthermore, based on Managements' own forecasts for the next quarter, this stock should stay in the low teens/high single digits until the summer or even further beyond. If the whole year continues on like this, they could end up earning just over their annual dividend payout in profits.
Thanks Jonathan.
I agree with you, but I think the dividend will be cut in the near future, since it is not sustainable and they will need the money for the hard transition to more than 50% online. I don't see them as having any sort of competitive advantage, other than maybe some large accounts which they will have to work hard to keep. All else in their business model is done better and cheaper by AMZN and the likes.
Well, I was wrong here. I still think long term this is a good investment and a good company though.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Like clockwork - SPLS to drop over 10% today.
Already crashing in the after hours
low volume doesnt mean anything
Staples is NOT Office Depot/Officemax. I'm a competitor of both too. I bought today.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Amazon will bury them all. No one uses office supplies like they used to. Large companies go paperless and supplyless - I have worked for many. You should know that.
Good luck to you - you may be right to have gone long. It does look oversold, but so do most good shorts. We shall see who ends up making money over the next month or so.
Disclosure: short SPLS shares.

This paper presents a convenient self-calibration method for an inertial measurement unit (IMU) using matrix factorization. Using limited information about applied loads (accelerations or angular rates) available from natural references, the proposed method can linearly solve all the parameters of an IMU in any configuration of its inertial components. Our factorization-based calibration method exploits the bilinear form of an IMU measurement, which is the product of intrinsic calibration parameters and exerted loads. For a redundant IMU, we prove that partial knowledge of the loads, such as magnitude, can produce a linear solution space for a proper decomposition of the measurement. Theoretical analysis on this linear space reveals that a 1-D null space should be considered when load magnitudes are all equal (e.g., gravity loads). Degenerate load distributions are also geometrically identified to avoid singular measurement collection. Since a triad IMU has a lower number of sensor components than a 4-D parameter space, we propose an iterative factorization in which only initial bias is required. A wide convergence region of the bias can provide an automatic setting of the initial bias as the mean of the measurements. Performance of the proposed method is evaluated with respect to various noise levels and constraint types. Self-calibration capability is demonstrated using natural references, which are gravity for accelerometers and image stream from an attached camera for gyroscopes. Calibration results are globally optimal and identical to those of nonlinear optimization.

In the Dark
The monthly utility bill typically reveals little. And that's a missed opportunity for reducing energy demand.
Utilities are turning to a new tool to help consumers conserve energy and cut costs: the monthly bill.
For many consumers, the utility bill offers little more information than the total due -- not even a breakdown of that figure, which includes not only fuel charges but often a dozen or more other costs, including delivery charges, taxes, and charges for special programs like pollution controls on power plants or subsidies for low-income households.
The Journal Report
Utilities don't want to just buy wind power anymore. They want to own it. Plus, oil- and gas-industry executives are taking what they learned, and heading down a new career path.
- See the complete Energy report.
The problem with such a simple bill is that it doesn't give consumers any way to calculate how much they can save by cutting back on their energy use, or which measures on their part will save them the most. And that blunts a major incentive for conservation.
Now, many utilities are in the process of revamping their bills to give consumers detailed information, along with basic tips on how to reduce energy consumption. Some are going even further, testing advanced meters that allow consumers to monitor online the energy usage of the furnace, the air conditioner and other household appliances continuously, so that they can adjust their settings accordingly.
It's an uneven transition. Many utilities say they're still trying to figure out what information consumers need and how best to present it. But more are making the effort as they face growing complaints from consumers about energy prices and increasing pressure from regulators to help reduce energy consumption.
In the Dark
What is it consumers are missing? For starters, without an itemization of charges, consumers can't tell how much of their monthly expense is fixed and how much is within their control. Also, without knowing how much they're paying for each unit of gas and electricity they consume, it's difficult for them to know whether they could get more benefit, for example, from buying a new Energy Star refrigerator or replacing a funky, old gas furnace. And without knowing how the prices of gas and electricity change according to levels of usage, consumers can't gauge exactly how much any conservation effort on their part will save them.
Consider the bill the Georgia Power unit of Southern Co. SO -0.52 % sends to its residential customers. It simply breaks down the total amount to be paid into two components -- taxes, and a service charge that lumps all other costs together.
Now consider what those customers could do with more information. Georgia Power charges its residential customers 4.657 cents a kilowatt hour for the first 650 units of electricity consumed, year round. The price rises to 7.738 cents for the next 350 kilowatt hours in the summer, but drops to 3.998 cents for those next units in the winter. Above 1,000 kilowatt hours, the price rises even more in the summer, to 7.976 cents, and drops even more in the winter, to 3.931 cents. In other words, a person who used 1,200 kilowatt hours of electricity a month would pay about 40% more in the summer than in the winter.
That means that measures that cut summertime electricity use, like buying more-efficient air conditioners or keeping the house a couple of degrees warmer, have more value to the consumer than measures that reduce wintertime use, like cutting back on lighting or electric heating. Knowing the rate tiers also would allow people to figure out how much they could save by cutting their use by, say, 10%. But the current bill doesn't make any of that clear.
Georgia Power says it hasn't offered detailed bills because its customers and regulators haven't asked it to do so. But the utility says it is looking for better ways to communicate with customers and sees the bill as an underutilized tool.
The Ideal Utility Bill
Monthly statements are often opaque or lack details. Here's what a utility bill ought to include:
- Cost per unit of energy used (kilowatt hour, therm or ccf – hundred feet of gas)
- Meter readings
- Usage comparison with prior periods, the farther back the better
- Weather adjustments to show if change in usage is related to the weather or some other factor
- Compare usage with usage history for other similar homes
- Give examples of how energy-saving devices could cut usage and cost (Energy Star refrigerator, energyefficient furnace, etc.)
- Show how changing temperature settings can cut usage
- Itemize cost components in bill to show how much the consumer controls and how much he or she doesn't
- Tell where one can take complaints, such as the state utilities commission
Source: WSJ reporting
Making Changes
Many other utilities already have made changes. DTE Energy Co. DTE -0.13 % , parent of Detroit Edison Co., revamped its bills to itemize charges and spell out its rate tiers. Vectren Corp. VVC 1.08 % , a utility based in Evansville, Ind., recently added charts to its bills so customers can quickly see how their gas and electricity use has varied over a 13-month period. The utility also added weather data showing the average temperatures for the current billing period, prior month and year-earlier period, so customers can get a sense of what role weather played.
"We felt there was a real need to help consumers understand their personal consumption better," says Jeff Whiteside, a Vectren vice president.
Southern California Edison, a unit of Edison International, EIX 0.57 % tapped bill consultants and focus groups to come up with a more readable, useful format for its bills. For instance, consumers told the utility they find the different rate tiers confusing, so the new bill will include a simple graph that shows where a household's usage falls in the tiers and how close it is to lower-cost tiers, as an incentive to conserve.
Lynda Ziegler, the utility's senior vice president of customer service, says the utility aims to customize bills eventually by suggesting steps customers can take to conserve energy, based on their particular usage patterns. "This is something we want to continually refine," she says.
The Next Step
Over the next few years, consumers in many markets will receive much greater detail on their energy use than they do today, as utilities install advanced meters that can measure a household's consumption continuously and communicate with devices in the home to measure and even control the energy use of furnaces, air conditioners and other individual appliances.
The ability to measure each household's energy use throughout the day -- rather than simply capturing a usage total once a month, as most meters now do -- would allow utilities to charge different prices for peak and off-peak use, something they already do with many business customers. The idea would be to encourage consumers to spread out their energy use or reduce it outright so that utilities could avoid building costly new plants to handle peak demand -- plants that consumers ultimately pay for. New bills could show consumers what they're paying at different times of the day, giving them the information they would need to adjust their consumption.
Advanced meters also can allow consumers to go online and find out how much juice the refrigerator is using or how much gas the furnace is burning. Some consumers can already do this in pilot programs. Eventually, utilities aim to give consumers the ability to adjust the settings of their appliances and energy systems online, and to see immediately how those adjustments affect their costs and the utility's carbon footprint.
Utilities have tried smart-meter pilot programs for years, but few gained much momentum until recently. With energy prices surging and concerns over global warming growing, there's more incentive now to develop advanced meters. Utilities say they're still feeling their way forward on this front, as they are with more-detailed bills. "There's still work to be done to figure out what people want to see," says Jim Rainear, general manager of energy services for Duke Energy Corp. DUK 0.44 % The utility is conducting smart-meter pilot programs in North Carolina, South Carolina and Ohio.
Duke Energy also is exploring a number of other ways to encourage energy efficiency. For instance, by midyear it hopes to have an online tool available that will allow people to log in and answer a questionnaire about the details of their energy use. The utility will then use that information, along with its own record of the customer's energy use, to help it suggest conservation measures.
Chicago-based Commonwealth Edison Co., a unit of Exelon Corp. EXC 0.74 % , already has moved in that direction. Its customers can go online and conduct home energy audits based on personal information and even compare usage against people who live in similar homes. ComEd and Duke reached the same conclusion: "We have got to get more personalized," says Casey Mather, Duke's director of mass-market strategy.

text: I've spent some time working with search.php and the wordpress search function. Overall I think it works great, but I've got some ideas for improvement (this may already be a plugin?). When the search results return only 1 entry, it is displayed in full. I think this is a good concept - but it should be taken a step further and actually bring you to the posts permalink. This is particularly important to me because my blog has copius amounts of video and images. It also just seems more efficient to me, why have the user in a different layout and format than the one thats refined and expected (single.php) for a complete post. Perhaps passing a h2 of Your search yielded one result: would prevent user confusion. I tried to do this myself with php redirects and such but had no luck, and I think it would be a useful general improvement.

Woo! Plus I had a cheeky fiver on Benteke to score first so in a way thank you Baker!
Big day in the relegation battle. All sounds exciting so far.
We actually played quite well in that half. It'll never last.
If QPR can get a goal the end of the season is going to be infinitely more exciting.
Well Andros Townsend just scored an absolute beauty. Still time for us to fuck it up mind.
And they've got that goal!

I just let out a massive sigh of relief. Oddly we actually looked better in the final ten minutes than we did the twenty before. Frankly we should have put the game away at least four times! Good effort from Reading though. They made a game of it.
QPR will probably stay up, they have winnable fixtures, Villa, Fulham, Wigan, Stoke, Reading.

So I went to my dr appt today and she checked me and my cervix is still long and closed which is good. I mentioned before my bedrest is to prevent preterm labor from repeating like I had in my last two pregnancies. I've been to l & d 3 times this pregnancy already with contractions which they stopped and I'm now on Procardia to stop them. My vent is when I got home I called my sister to tell her about the appt like she asked me to and when I told her that I still have no changes she said, "So are you going to relax and stop worrying because it seems like you are having a normal pregnancy, You're just having braxton hicks. You better not have any more pregnancies because you can't handle it." Maybe I'm just being sensitive but I was so irritated. Hopefully me and the baby will be fine but I don't know how she can tell me to just get over it and have a normal pregnancy. My preterm dilation and effacing started at 28 weeks with my last son (I'm 28 weeks tomorrow), and 30weeks with my son before him and I had no idea until my dr checked me. I thought I was just having braxton hicks and I was wrong. I was in the hospital for a week stopping labor with my middle son. That's why I worry. I don't want to be in preterm labor again and not realize it. Or is she right? Am I just being paranoid? Should my dr not have put me on bedrest? Oh my gosh, sorry this is so long.
Mom to all boys! Ages 12, 4, 2 and my brand new blessing born April 7th!

I would tell her, "actually, it seems the bedrest is working so I'm going to continue as I have been to keep my baby cooking as long as possible." I know how you feel. Family can be so judgmental and sometimes you wish they were more concerned about hurting each others' feelings, ya know?
Big sis - 11 yo
'Twin'kie Girls - 7 yo
I feel that the doctors knows best...he wouldn't have put you on bedrest just grins and giggles. I have a friend like that...she acts like i love being in this perdicment...i just want to yell the doctors don't look for complicated pregnancies, they don't want to make their jobs any harder then they already are. So I am totally on your side.
~*~Emily Marie~*~ made her debute 25 February. Only 26 weeks along.
I remember when I was still pregnant, I had scar tissue keeping me from dilating, but I was effacing. I was also contracting every 10 min for darn near 4 weeks. I would get soooo POed when someone would say I was in "false labor" because I wasn't progressing anymore. I swear I would go into early labor and have it stall out because of the dang scar tissue. Oh, and IMHO, if you are on medication to STOP preterm labor and are still having occational contractions, then they aren't braxton hicks. The way I rationalized it to myself was the meds would stop any "false" labor contractions I would have had, so the ones I was having would be considered like break through contractions, right? Anyway, that's just how I rationalized things to myself in terms of needing to be on BR and medication.
