3 Report on the survey and trial excavations of the Czech Institute of Egyptology, carried in the area of El-Hayez, Baharia oasis (2nd season, ) 1.0 Introduction In 2003 the Czech Institute of Egyptology launched a survey of the El-Hayz area situated in the southernmost part of the Baharia oasis. Nowadays, this area is only sporadically inhabited, and its history is largely unknown. The first scientific investigations into the history of the area were carried out by Ahmed Fakhry (1974, pp ). Prehistoric research was previously realised only by F. Hassan (1979). More recently, there were archaeological activities carried out by the Bawiti Inspectorate of Antiquities at sites of El-Riz and Ayin el- Khabata during the last decade of the 20th century. Undoubtedly the peak of scientific popularity focused on Baharia several years ago, due to the unprecedented discoveries of Zahi Hawass made at the Valley of the Golden Mummies (Hawass, 2001). The first stage of the current project has been designed for a period of three years ( ). Its primary objective is to provide an overall archaeological map which presents the principal sites, along with a description of their potential, character and stage of preservation, structure, and their relationship to the monuments within the ancient landscape. 2.0 Methods used The prehistoric and historic survey was conducted systematically in the areas of Bir el- Showish, Umm el-okhbain, Gard el-sheikh, Ayin el-ezza, Mannsaf, Ayin el-khabata, Qasr Mas ouda, Tabla Amun and El-Riz. Additional orientation surveys focused on Gebel Mitteli Radwan, Pyramids area (site with two hills in a shape of pyramids), and the marginal escarpments. The playas received special attention as favourable areas for prehistoric settlement and the lithic outcrops as sources for the tool production. During the mapping of the area the following maps were utilized during the survey - Map Egypt 1: Sheet 4, Baharia Oasis, - Map Egypt 1: , Sheet 4-D, Baharia Oasis, - General Geological Map 1: Already at the very beginning of the project it became clear that the current maps are unsuitable for the intended detailed archaeological work and the ensuing analysis. Therefore, in addition to archaeological objects, additional features were mapped during the survey when 3

5 As far as the archaeological objects are concerned, settlements, cemeteries, significant tombs and surrounding irrigation networks were mapped (in our case mainly old fields, gardens and watering systems so-called manawars). The tracing of monuments visible on the surface was carried out during the walking surveys. All discernible monuments were located with help of GPS GeoExplorer 3 Trimble receiver. 1 The databases established in this way were processed by GPS Pathfinder Office 2.7 software. In the next step, the data were imported into GIS software bundle ArcGis 8.2. This software enabled the combination of the graphic, attributes and photographic databases and the production of the topographic layout. During the 2004 season the surveying activities were acompanied by trial excavations carried out at three sites: Bir el-showish, Ayin el-khabata and El-Riz. Themain objectives of the 2004 season were as follows: - to complete the survey map of the examined area, - to carry out trial excavations in order to detail selected structures, - to date individual sites as precisely as possible (using sherds lying on the surface of the desert), - to analyse human remains found during the trial excavations. 3.0 Recorded archaeological history of the area of El-Hayez: An overview 3.1 Prehistory DOPLNI A UPRAVI JIRKA SVOBODA As a result of the sedimentary conditions, the geomorphology of the Bahariya landscape is structured into the levels of the escarpments and table mountains, slopes and pediments, terraces, and the basal plain. All types of landscape were test-surveyed and the following types of sites and artifact distribution were recorded: 1. isolated artifacts, 2. random artifact accumulations, 3. settlements, 4. workshops. 1 The data have not yet been differentially corrected for the area of Egypt. 5
6 Location of workshops is always related to the rich lithic outcrops of the area, whether it is the cherts weathered from the Cretaceous limestone coverage of the escarpment or the quartzite outcrops forming the caps of certain table mountains (more than 200 m a.s.l.). The settlements, on the other hand, are concentrated around the playa deposits on the basal plain ( m a.s.l.). Occupation of the terraces and pediments is generally scarce, but some isolated artifacts and random accumulations are dispersed in all types of landscape. Based on preliminary evaluation of the collected material, and on comparison with the results from the previously surveyed oases (Kharga, Dakhla), the following chronological and cultural framework may be suggested: 1. The Acheulian Four bifaces of the Acheulian type were collected in the area of Bir el-showish and Gebel el- Showish. Two are archaic and more eolised, whereas the other two, finer and more fresh, suggest a more evolved Acheulian stage, thus possibly covering a longer time-span of occupation ( ky). Some of the associated debitage is probably related to this stage. 2. Undifferentiated Middle Paleolithic This stage is most widely dispersed across the surveyed landscape. Several specialised lithic workshops, with a high density of Levallois flakes and cores, were recorded at the quartzite outcrops on top of Gebel el Showish. Isolated artifacts and random accumulations were encountered in almost all surveyed areas, starting at the chert outcrops on Gebel Gharbi in the south, over Bir el-showish to the Pyramids area and the Gebel Mitteli Radwan ridge in the north. Besides the typically Levallois nature of cores and flakes and the associated bifacial technique, however, the laterally retouched artifacts are almost absent and, as a result, it is difficult to classify this horizon more precisely. 3. Terminal Middle Paleolithic At some of the basal plain sites, especially around the playas, we encountered rather smalldimensional Levallois and blade industries. Given the fact that some of these sites are of settlement character, as at Ayin Umm el-okhbain, Mannsaf, and Ayin Khabata, we also recorded more retouched tools such as bifacial leafpoints, burins, sidescrapers, and borers. This typological structure, together with the smaller size of cores and flakes and an increased amount of blades, would place this horizon somewhere around the Middle-to-Upper Paleolithic transition, on the level of the Khargan or Aterian technocomplexes (50 30 ky). 6
7 4. The Epipaleolithic/Neolithic As opposed to the widely dispersed earlier industries, the sites of this horizon are smaller, more concentrated, and spatially restricted. A specialised workshop for blade and microblade production was recorded at the Cretaceous chert outcrops on top of the Gebel Gharbi, whereas settlement sites were found at Ayin Umm el-okhbain (Figs. 1-2), Mannsaf, Bir Ayin Naga and the Pyramid playa. Typologically, the Umm el-okhbain site provided two elongated microlithic triangles, backed blades and bilaterally retouched blades, whereas the Bir Ayin Naga assemblage included a tanged point, a backed point, and a bilaterally retouched blade, suggesting, roughly, the period between 13 7 ky bp (Table 1). At the both sites, we also recorded the planigraphy and spatial distribution of the artifacts. 5. Lithic production during the historic times As the last stage in the lithic production, we have also documented an intensive production of heavy picks of quartzite and chert, associated with historic occupation and manawar constructions at Bir el-showish and Ayin el-khabata. 3.2 Historic period As a result of the surveys, larger settlements and what appears to be estates were identified in Bir el-showish, Ayin el-khabata and Qasr Mas ouda. They probably date mainly to the Roman period when the occupation of the oasis perhaps reached its demographic peak. This conclusion is substantiated not only by the individual areas of settlement but also by the size of the underground irrigation systems and adjacent fields. Ayin el-khabata The settlement in Ayin el-khabata seems to have had arelatively restricted size. In the central part of the settlement were identified the remnants of a larger house with a wine press. From the house only the crown of the extant walls was summarily surveyed. On the other hand, the remnants of the wine press were examined in detail. The press consists of one square shaped basin the side walls of which were originally built of large flat lumps of local limestone and covered with lime mortar. The juice from the pressed wine grapes flew into two containers, one on the southern and the second on the eastern side of the basin. The container on the eastern side consisted of three parts: at the bottom there was a large rounded cylindrical vessel of burnt clay whereas the upper part of the container was formed by two square-shaped 7
8 frames made of burnt clay, too. The container on the southern side also had a cylindrical vessel of burnt clay in its lowest part. The upper part of it, however, were formed by burnt brick masonry plastered with lime mortar. As in previous cases, only the crown of the extant walls was disclosed. Apparently, the central room in the house has the walls covered with saw. Bir el-showish (Map 2) This site is situated near the contemporaneous village of Gharbia. The largely deserted area consists of three core settlements. These settlements are indicated only by scattered posherds Map 2: Schematic plan of the principal archaeological features at Bir el-showish 8
9 and inconspicuous house walls remains on the surface. In some cases pottery kilns could also be traced. The settlement is surrounded on the east by a complicated network of manawars, a system of regularly spaced wells connected by underground tunnels designed to collect water from large areas of the slightly sloping plain. Fields lay close to the terminals of the irrigation systems. In the case of Bir el-showish also some parts of the original field extensions could be located. The examined area shows that the settlements covered an area of at least 8 ha and the manawars network was some 20 kms long and collected water from an area of about 700 ha. The eastern plain with several hillocks was used as a cemetery. It seems that the hillocks were reserved for rock-cut tombs of the elite of the settlement whereas simple pit graves were situated in the lower plain. It may be estimated that there are no less than several hundreds of burials in the area, most of them robbed in the past. Cult installations Western slope of one of these hills was selected for a trial excavation in During the course of cleaning, two smaller courtyards and one looted corridor tomb (Tomb 1, Fig. 1) were documented. Both features form a single burial-cultic installation dating to the Roman period (must probably to 2-3rd centuries A.D.). Court one was entered from the northwestern corner by an 80 cm wide entrance. The court measures approximatelly 300 x 320 cm in ground plan and its walls are preserved to a height of about 80 cm. The walls were built of mudbrick except for the rear wall cut in the hill and covered with mud plaster. The west wall contained two niches and a small oven. In the passageway into the second court there was 55 cm wide and 30 cm deep niche. In the south-east end of the court was a 55 cm wide passageway into the second court (500 x 240 cm in ground plan), which was built in identical way. In its rear wall were embedded three rock-cut niches. The eastern wall preserved one more niche which corresponded with a shaft opening of Tomb 1 situated about 3 m to the east. The eastern wall accommodated two more cavities which may be interpreted as purification basin and an oven, respectivelly. Both courts were filled with clean wind blown sand devoid of any artefacts except for some sherds. 9
10 Fig. 1: Tomb 1: detail of the burials inside the corridor tomb Tomb 1 About 3 m to the east of the Court 2 was discovered opening of a 2 m deep shaft leading into a corridor tomb dated to the Roman period. To the north of the shaft opening was found a Roman oil lamp. The bottom of the shaft assumes a rectangular shape 140 x 80 cm in ground plan. In its north wall is a 240 cm long and 75 cm wide corridor leading into a corridor shaped tomb. The first part of the corridor is 260 cm long and 160 cm wide, after that the corridor bends towards the north-east and continues for another 440 cm. The whole space was filled with human bones, remnants of disintegrated burials (Excav. No. 2/BS/2004). In the cms thick floor fill were found several items, remains of the original burial equipment. The items were as follows: three different pottery vessels (Excav. Nos. 3-5/BS/2004), one calcite miniature cup (6/BS/2004) and a small fayance pendant of Bes (7/BS/2004). Lying on the surface were some limestone hammers used for digging manawars. 10
11 Manawars Trial excavations were carried out in two better preserved manawar shafts. These shafts were 7 8 m deep and measured 130 x 55 cm in ground plan. It seems that the whole network of the underground channels has been sanded up and the future investigation would require a serious investment of time and means. Settlement In the north-eastern part of the oasis of Bir Showish, large mudbrick structures were revealed. The structures seem to have once covered an area of about 20 ha. The remnants of the settlement form a sort of two low hillocks. Some of the mudbrick walls are visible on the desert surface. The area of the settlement is coverd with potsherds and fragments of different types of glass, alabaster, coroded copper, etc. In the aforesaid area two trial diggings were carried out. In one sondage, covering an area of 40 x 40 m, was revealed a complex of rooms built of mud brick (Fig. 3). The rooms, from which only the crowns of walls were unearthed, have different size. Some of them were Fig. 2: Bir el-showish, House 2 11
12 obviously open, without ceilings, the others have vaulted roofs. As shown by the clearing of one of the rooms, the height of the extant walls amounts up to 2.5 m. The rooms are of rectangular plan oriented either in the north-south or east-west direction. The examined room was filled with drift sand except for the remnants of the broken vault lying on the floor. The walls of the room were plastered with clay mortar and covered with a thin layer of stucco and painted red. In the southern and northern walls of the room were niches. In the room no objects were discovered. The second trial digging was carried out in the southern part of the settlement. The digging led to the discovery of a pottery kiln, or, more precisely, two kilns adjacent to each other. The kilns, built of burnt bricks, had a typical conical shape and represent typical examples of the so-called two-chambered vertical kilns. Both of them were surmounted by a vaulted superstructure of which today only the tinely remnants survive. Apparently, both kilns fell in disuse already in the antiquity as indicated by the fire chambers sealed by clay. Adjacent to one of the kilns lay a broken large vessel, obviously a water container. Another settlement was revealed in the site number 2 near the cottage of the gardien. From the settlement, whch seems to extend to the west and north, only the crowns of one house and a pottery kiln were unearthed. The pottery kiln seems to have had a different plan than the kiln in the Site No. 1. A more detailed examination of the kiln in the site No. 2 is planned for the next season. Fig. 4: El-Riz with its dominant, the fortress 12
13 El Riz This is by far the largest settlement in the El-Hayez oasis (Fig. 5). It covers an area of cca. 10 ha, and once it had undoubtedly formed a real centre of the whole area. The site is dominated by a Roman fortress, once briefly explored by A. Fakhri. Not far from the fortress lies an early Christian church. Near the fortress can also be seen the remnants of orchards (two obviously very old nabq trees). The site has recently (about 10 years ago) been partly excavated by the local Inspectorate of Antiquities at Bawiti. During theses excavations were revealed the remnants of a palace (of the commander of the fortress?) and a wine cellar. In the surroundings of El- Riz extend large cemeteries which have also been partly excavated by the aforesaid Inspectorate from Bawitti.. Mapping of Riz in 2004 In the season of 2004, the mapping of manawars continued in the area about 1 km south of the fortress of Riz. In the area two systems of manawars were identified. The manawar situated closer to the fortress seems to have conducted the water to the fields and gardens in the close vicinity of the fortress. The second manawar lying south of the previous one represents a large and complex system consisting of many branches. In the upper part of this manawar, there is a series of large rounded structures built of tafla. It seems that these structures were once vaulted, dome-shaped superstructures of perhaps larger shafts giving access to the underground galleries of the manawar. About one km south of the fortress of Riz were revealed the remnants of a large tomb which seems to date from late Roman times. From the tomb, only a portion of the superstructure, built of mudbrick was revealed. The superstructure seems to have been formed by a vault resting on a rectangular base. The examination of the tomb is planned to be continued in the next season. 4.0 Conclusions The most important results of the first stage of the archaeological survey of the El-Hayez oasis may be summarized as follows: 1. the prehistoric survey has clearly shown that there is an important palaeolithic history of the oasis beginning with the Acheulien ( ky). Among the most significant results let us mention the epipaleolithic/neolithic sites (11-7 ky) connected with the three playas examined so far. 13
14 2. so far there were noted no pharaonic monuments in the area even though some toponyms would indicate otherwise (Tabla Amun, Tahuna), 3. the peak of the popularity of the area was very likely attained during the Roman period when the data indicate that the occupation in this area was most dense; there was an elaborate system of settlements and irrigation network that required a systematic deployment of a large workforce; 4. All the aforesaid sites had their own, local cemeteries. These were set up mostly on the slopes of the nearby hillocks. The two prevalent types of tombs in these cemeteries are: a) undecorated rock-cut tombs with burial niches for the burials of the individual members of the family; these are in prominent locations and usually contain a large number of burials, b) simple pits occupying lower locations on the hill slopes. During the survey some of the Palaeolithic/Neolithic sites were sampled, and all the collected artifacts and human bone finds are deposited at the Inspectorate of Antiquities in Bawitti and in the local Museum of Antiquities. The primary goal for the 2005 season will be to conclude the archaeological survey of the Qasr Mas ouda and El-Riz areas. In the next season, the survey is intended to be combined with some further trial diggings in order to clarify the stratigraphy, dating, and character of some of the monuments (manawars, etc.).

While Matheiu Perreault commanded the spotlight Tuesday night with his first career hat trick, Eakin's goal in a 5-3 victory over defending Stanley Cup champion Boston was his first since Dec. 5.
"Kind of a lucky one," Eakin said of the goal, which caught Bruins netminder Tuukka Rask off guard. "It's a nice feeling obviously."
Hershey has two games during the break, so Eakin will get to keep playing and can easily be recalled to be back when the Capitals practice Monday at 2 p.m.
More to come soon on last night's win over the Bruins, so stay tuned.

Description: What is it that separates the doers, leaders, and success stories among us from the dreamers, also-rans, and wannabes? To bestselling author James P. Owen, it's all about having The Try'"the quality of giving 110 percent to the task or challenge at hand.In The Try'"a dozen true stories of ordinary people who've done extraordinary things across varied fields of endeavor'"Owen reveals The Try as a character trait that can be forged in several ways. Some of those profiled are driven by a childhood dream or longheld ambition. Others are fueled by someone else's belief in them, an unwavering belief in themselves, or the urge to pit themselves against daunting odds. Still others find The Try in a life-changing moment when they hit rock bottom or come face-to-face with failure. What all high achievers have in common, Owen believes, is a blend of inner drive, focus, and determination that pushes them to pursue their goals relentlessly, confronting every obstacle, and never, ever giving up. His insightful profiles bring to life new scientific evidence that effort trumps ability. In other words, how much you can achieve depends not on how smart or talented you may be, but instead on the quality of your efforts and how much you try. Owen provides inspiration that will strike a chord with anyone who has a lofty goal, a deep personal ambition, or a major challenge to face. By connecting the dots in this collection of stories, he also deliverspractical 'œhow to' advice for those who want to cultivate The Try in themselves, or to encourage someone else on the road to realizing his or her full potential. Owen's conclusion: 'œIf you've got The Try, anything is possible. All it takes'¦is all you've got.'

Google Adsense is one of the most effective ways to make money online. In this article, we just come out the detailed guidelines to help webmasters add Google Adsense ads to their websites to make money.
In order to increase revenue, bloggers are expecting to position ads on different places of the websites, especially the attractive places that have high click-through rate (CTR). As the better design gets better CTR, we suggest adding Google Adsense ads on the right places. In general, the recommend places are:
- Top Banner of your website(468 x60 px)
- Sidebar (Varies from 125×125 px up to 300×250 px)
- Content (468×60 or 300×250)
No matter where you want to place the ad on, you need make it to consistent with the website design as well as not to be intrusive with readers. In this article, we show careful steps to add Google Adsense ads to WordPress website header, menu bar, and sidebar.
Create Your Ads
In the following, let's begin to create your ads.
- First of all, you need to log in the existing Google Adsense Account, or register a new one directly on the website.
- Then, click "My Ads" menu to create your own advert for the website. Before choosing a specific ad type, make sure where you will put the ads.
- Feel free to play around with the remainder settings, and click "Save and get code" to complete.
Add Google Adsense Ads on Website Header
- Log into WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance-> Editor and find header.php file.
- Open and edit hearder.php file, and paste the Adsense code into the file, like the following:
- You'd better use the center tags like Google Adsense Code to make the ads center if your website is centered.
Add Google Adsense Ads Under Navigation Menu
Many people also like to add Google Adsense ads under the navigation menu as it's quite easy to mislead customers to click on ads and make huge money. If you want to use Link Unit, then I recommend you making it look like navigation bar. You can easily make this by customize the background and text link color based on your navigation menu. Just like the following:
As for the Leaderboard, we suggest you use rich media ads because they are better eye-catching.
You can easily add ads by log into WordPress dashboard go to Appearance-> Editor and find header.php file. Then paste the Adsense code into the bottom of the file. The process is quite similar with adding Adsense ads to website header.
Add Google Adsense Ads to the Sidebar
As well, some people also place ads on the sidebar. It is also easy to manage. You can simply paste the ad code into the widget.
In the WordPress admin panel, go to Appearance -> Widgets.
Click and drag a "Text widget" into the sidebar.
Paste the Adsense code into the widget and click save to complete the process.
Google Adsense WordPress Plugins
The process of adding Adsense ads is not difficult for some experienced webmasters, but for newbies, this is still complicated. Luckily, there are some best WordPress plugins which can help you manage the process easily and fast. Below are the best WordPress plugins for AdSense, which are gathered to help you implement, control and overview AdSense ads with ease.
AdRotate is one of the most popular WordPress plugin for AdSense, coming with the best way to put ads on your website. It has understandable and intuitive interface, allows you add and manage the ads from the dashboard. AdRotate also supports unlimited groups for banners, which allows you tie certain banners to different areas of the website. Note that this plugin requires running on PHP 5.2 or higher, and compatible up to the latest WordPress 3.6 already.

Quick AdSense is WordPress plugin for ads management. It is popular for the quick and flexible method to ad AdSense and code into a blog post. Featuring a simple page with simple configurations, it doesn't require much coding knowledge.

text: I have a user promotion setup on the forum where the first three posts are set to the moderation queue. Following an example here, I set it by 1) choosing the secondary usergroup to be assigned to and 2) selecting only "User has posted at least X messages:" (with the appropriate value) in the "Apply this promotion while..." tab. It works fine, as all users with more than three posts now belong to my "Verified Member" secondary group. I have an existing forum offline for awhile why I rearrange everything, and what I want to do is assign all existing members to three separate secondary user groups. I created pretty much the same promotion, yet it is not taking effect. The only things I have selected are similar to above: 1) I select the secondary groups to be assigned to, and 2) nothing else is selected in the other two tabs except for "User has been registered for at least X days:" which is set for 7 days (I've had the forum offline for more than a week). Checking an existing long-time member, the promotion is not being applied. When I first set it up, I manually ran the cron entry...no change. Then I waited until after the next scheduled run of the cron, loaded the forum a few times...still nothing. I also notice when I ran it manually once, it took several seconds to complete. On subsequent tries, the cron job ends almost immediately. I even created another new promotion, again selecting only the one critera...still nothing. What am I missing? Both the good and the bad promotions are essentially setup the same way, and each only has the one criteria selected. It worked fine for my Verified Member promotion, but it's not doing anything with the new ones.

Divemasters tell of large scuba lovers linking weight belts together because they can't circle their ample waists with just one. And Dr. Lawrence Martin, M.D., author of Scuba Diving Explained, figures most dive boats sit a little lower in the water these days, because, as he says of his latest excursions, "everyone's overweight."
Well, "everyone" may be a slight exaggeration--but only slight. According to the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost one-third of Americans are now obese, and more than two-thirds are overweight. We know extra poundage hurts your health on dry land. But at what point should weight keep you docked from diving?
"Being overweight or even obese in and of itself doesn't mean you can't dive," says Dr. Martin. "But there are risks to consider and special precautions to take. Plus, there's certainly a minimum level of fitness that divers should maintain to keep the sport safe."
The Heart of the Matter
Hands down, the biggest risk overweight divers face is heart attack--one of the most common causes of sudden death under water in all divers, regardless of their wetsuit size. It's general knowledge that when you exert yourself, whether it's by freestyle swimming or bailing a boat, your heart must pump harder to deliver oxygen-rich blood to your working muscles. But what most divers don't consider is that the mere act of dunking your body in water puts your pump under increased pressure, as the amount of blood flowing into your heart's chambers increases. Add to that the pressure from sucking high-density gas through a regulator, and your heart is churning on all cylinders before you even start your descent.
"Diving isn't like running a marathon, but it has all kinds of exertion people don't consider," says dive doc Ernest Campbell. "Carrying heavy gear, climbing ladders and swimming can force your heart to beat pretty hard."
If you reach a point where the heart itself can't get enough blood, which is a particular risk for overweight people, who often have high blood pressure or other cardiovascular risks, the heart can't function and cells in the heart muscle can start to die--and that, fellow divers, is the "big one," a heart attack. "Divers with a BMI of more than 30--the marker of obesity--are at excessive risk, because they are already prone to coronary artery disease," says Dr. Campbell.
Like a Nitrogen Sponge
Aside from putting undue pressure on your pump, diving with extra pounds also elevates your risk for DCS. If you were to set a pound of muscle and a pound of fat side by side, the muscle would resemble tuna steak--dense, fibrous tissue that's not easily permeated. The fat would look more like a washed up jellyfish, soft and squishy. There's a disadvantage to having too much of the latter, more supple tissue--it sucks up nitrogen. In fact, nitrogen is five times more soluble in fat than it is in lean muscle, so a person who is 30 or even 40 percent body fat absorbs a great deal more of the gas most responsible for DCS than someone whose body fat is in a more healthy 15 to 25 percent range.
"The danger here is that nitrogen loads can become high in adipose [fat] tissue, and bubble formation can be extensive," says Dr. Campbell. "But you wouldn't develop pain from this. Instead, these gas bubbles would be dumped into the blood where they are carried to the heart and lungs. If the gas bubble loads are high enough, you can end up with a serious condition, like a brain embolism."
Excess weight can cause any number of heart and lung problems, says Dr. Campbell. "I've dived with a 375-pound diver who had acute pulmonary edema on one dive and a subsequent coronary event on another."
Fit To Dive
All that said, we've all been aboard with divers (maybe including ourselves) who have the classic aquatic-mammal build, yet seem to dive and survive as happily as their trimmer counterparts. Though excess weight, and certainly obesity, make taking the plunge a riskier proposition, with the right steps you can reduce your risk on every dive, increasing your chances for a longer, healthier dive career. Here's what the experts recommend.
Take some giant strides. The more physically fit you are, the less oxygen you use when you exercise, no matter what you weigh. "Obviously, you have to demonstrate some physical fitness even to get dive certified," says Dr. Martin.
But being able to pass the swim test is a minimum. You should be fit enough to handle unexpected challenges, like swimming against strong currents or having to assist a dive buddy back to the boat. The best way to do that: Commit to a regular aerobic exercise routine, where you're working hard enough to break a sweat for 45 minutes four to five days a week. Even more moderate levels of aerobic activity can boost your overall fitness. "When you can swim several laps in the pool without difficulty, ride a bicycle for a half an hour or jog a half mile without collapsing, you're probably fit for diving," says Dr. Martin. As a bonus, being physically fit also reduces your risk of hyperventilation and panic stress reactions.
Go gear hunting. A wetsuit should be snug. It should not cinch your torso like a neoprene corset. Far too often, large divers squeeze themselves in too-tight wetsuits that constrict their chests and squish their lungs like Slim Jims. This isn't just uncomfortable; it's dangerous, as it makes proper breathing difficult, if not impossible, which not only burdens your heart, but also can lead to carbon dioxide buildup. Many suits come in size 3XL; you can even find 4XL. Invest the time and money into getting a suit that fits you properly.
Ditto for your weight belt and BC. Body fat helps you float, so the more you have, the more weight you'll need to carry to descend. And your BC shouldn't be so tight-fitting that it is difficult to inflate properly.
Err on the conservative side. Remember dive tables were originally modeled after fit, young, buff Navy divers--not sedentary desk jockeys. Overweight divers not only absorb more nitrogen, but they also tend to consume more air than leaner divers because it takes more work just to move through the water. Take this into consideration and dive conservatively. Don't push your depths or bottom time, and make generous safety stops to minimize your risk of getting bent.
What's Your BMI?
The more body fat you have, the higher your risk for heart troubles and DCS. Below is a guide to calculating your body mass index (BMI) a widely used indicator for body fat. Whether you're a new, plus-sized diver gunning for your C-card, or you're a veteran diver carrying a little more to love since your certification, if your BMI is high, pay attention to the tips in this article to keep yourself--and your dive buddies--safe.
Plug your height and weight into the following formula to calculate your BMI:
(Weight in pounds ÷ Height in inches ÷ Height in inches) x 703
So if you're a six-foot-tall, 170-pound diver, your BMI would be 23:
(170 ÷ 72 ÷ 72) x 703
The guidelines for both men and women*:
Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
Healthy weight: BMI of 18.6 to 24.9
Overweight: BMI of 25 to 29.9
Obese: BMI of 30 or more
* If you are very muscular for your height (like a football player), your BMI will register high, though you are certainly fit for diving. This index is based on the average population.
