What to Expect at Home
When you have heart failure, your heart does not pump outenough blood. This causes fluids to build up in your body. If you drink too many fluids, you may get symptoms such as swelling, weight gain, and shortness of breath. Limiting how much you drink and how much salt (sodium) you take in can help prevent these symptoms.
Your family members can help you take care of yourself. They can keep an eye on how much you drink. They can make sure you are taking your medicines the right way. And they can learn to recognize your symptoms early.
Your doctor may ask you to lower the amount of fluids you drink:
- When your heart failure is not very bad, you may not have to limit your fluids too much.
- As your heart failure gets worse, you may need to limit fluids to 6 - 9 cups a day (about 1 1/2 to 2 liters).
Tips to Limit Fluids
Remember, some foods, such as soups, puddings, Jell-O, ice cream, popsicles and others contain fluids. When you eat chunky soups, use a fork if you can, and leave the broth behind.
Use a small cup at home for your liquids at meals, and drink just 1 cupful. After drinking 1 cup of fluid at a restaurant, turn your cup over to let your server know you do not want more. Find ways to keep from getting too thirsty:
- When youre thirsty, chew some gum, rinse your mouth with cold water and spit it out, or suck on something such as hard candy, a slice of lemon, or small pieces of ice.
- Stay cool. Getting overheated will make you thirsty.
If you have trouble keeping track of it, write down how much you are drinking during the day.
Eating too much salt can make you thirsty, which can make you drink too much. Extra salt also makes more fluid stay in your body. Many foods contain "hidden salt," including prepared and frozen foods. Learn how to eat a
Diuretics help your body get rid of extra fluid. They are often called "water pills." There are many brands of diuretics. Some are taken 1 time a day. Others are taken 2 times a day. The 3 common types are:
- Thiazides: chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Hygroton), indapamide (Lozol), hydrochlorothiazide (Esidrix, HydroDiuril), and metolazone (Mykrox, Zaroxolyn)
- Loop diuretics: bumentanide (Bumex), furosemide (Lasix), and torasemide (Demadex)
- Potassium-sparing agents: amiloride (Midamor), spironolactone (Aldactone), and triamterene (Dyrenium)
There are also diuretics that contain a combination of 2 of the drugs above.
When you are taking diuretics, you will need to have regular checkups so that your doctor can check your potassium levels and monitor how your kidneys are working.
Diuretics make you urinate more often. Try not to take them at night before you go to bed. Take them at the same time every day.
Common side effects of diuretics are:
- Fatigue, muscle cramps, or weakness from low potassium levels
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Numbness or tingling
- Heart palpitations, or a "fluttery" heartbeat
- Gout
- Depression
- Irritability
- Urinary incontinence (not being able to hold your urine)
- Loss of sex drive (from potassium-sparing diuretics), or inability to have an erection
- Hair growth, menstrual changes, and a deepening voice in women (from potassium-sparing diuretics)
- Breast swelling in men or breast tenderness in women (from potassium-sparing diuretics)
- Allergic reactions -- if you are allergic to sulfa drugs, you should not use thiazides.
Be sure to take your diuretic the way your doctor tells you to.
Weighing Yourself Regularly
You will get to know what weight is right for you. Weighing yourself will help you know if there is too much fluid in your body. You might also find that your clothes and shoes are feeling tighter than normal when there is too much fluid in your body.
Weigh yourself every morning on the same scale when you get up -- before you eat and after you use the bathroom. Make sure you are wearing similar clothing each time you weigh yourself. Write down your weight every day on a chart so that you can keep track of it.
Call your doctor if your weight goes up by more than 2 to 3 pounds in a day or 5 pounds in a week. Also call your doctor if you lose a lot of weight.
When to Call the Doctor
Call your doctor if:
- You are tired or weak.
- You feel short of breath when you are active or when you are at rest.
- You are wheezing and having trouble breathing.
- You have a cough that does not go away. It may be dry and hacking, or it may sound wet and bring up pink, foamy spit.
- You have swelling in your feet, ankles, or legs.
- You have to urinate a lot, especially at night.
- You have gained or lost weight.
- You have pain and tenderness in your belly.
- You have symptoms that you think might be from your medicines.
- Your pulse, or heartbeat, gets very slow or very fast, or it is not steady.

New Maps and GOTM!
This weeks headlines...
Two new maps have arrived, we got the news you want.
ConquerClub, Game of the Month?
Maps 102 and 103 have arrived.
First off we have The Citadel, made by TaCktiX. It's inspired by The Military College of South Carolina. It's looks kind of like the CCU map. Not only because both of these maps are Schools, but that both have central positions which reaches almost all of the map. These positions is CCU's Quad and The Citadel's The Parade Deck.
The gameplay for The Citadel is normal, with one unique feature. The Parade Deck is a so-called Killer Neutral. A Killer Neutral is a neutral which means that each round it respawns like neutral again and all the armies that were on the Killer Neutral territory disappear. This map will by no doubt be included in several tournaments very soon. Natewolfman will include it in the next Foundry Update tournament. Maybe someone will beat him to it? We'll see.
The second map to be quenched is Archipelago, made by ZeakCytho and Mjinga. An archipelago is a cluster of islands. Which is exactly what the map is, a cluster of islands.
The map is one of normal gameplay, with no unique features. Though the map is still unique with it's graphics. This map will probably be a hit for the public. Hopefully we'll see it in several tournaments, and having epic battles under the warmth of the Bishan Island!
MPOGD, MultiPlayer Online Games Directory, is holding a monthly vote for the GOTM, Game Of The Month, award. ConquerClub is going strong to become Octobers GOTM, we are currently leading with 629 votes to Entropia Universe's 382 votes. With YOUR help, then we can extend our lead and take home the GOTM award!

This week we sat down for an interview with samuelc812.
Next week, our interview will be with the player and organiser, hulmey. If you have any questions you can go post them in this thread. An interview with lackattack, the site's creator is coming soon as well. You can post those questions here.
Now, on with the interview!
Q: Hello, samuelc812.
Hey Gozar, I was looking through Issue #41 of the newsletter and suddenly found my name next to the interview, it was a surprise.
Q:How did you find this website?
I actually got the Original Board game of Risk from my parents for my birthday last year [2007] and I really enjoyed it. Then my family lost interest, but I wanted to play so I thought there must be an internet site for Risk. So I Googled it and ConquerClub was the first option.
Q: Why did you join CC?
I enjoyed the game so much that I wanted to find something on the internet, so I could play other people.
Q:Why did you start to play tournaments?
Somehow one day I stumbled into the main forum and saw the Tournaments Forum and thought wow they do tournaments, so I went into the Create/Join a Tournament and joined Kilazul's WWII Extravaganza, and Kilazul's Football League.
Q:What made you want to start running tournaments?
I am an ambitious person and I want to experience everything CC has to offer so first off I thought I would run a tournament, and I would just keep getting ideas and now I have 1 complete and 4 that are currently in progress.
Q: How long have you been organizing tournaments?
About 4 months now...
Q:What tournament did you first run?
It was the Star Wars: The Jedi Knights vs. The Sith Lords, a Quads Tournament on the Solar System Map and it was so popular, the second is now in progress.
Q: Where did you come up with your tournament ideas?
It's pretty easy really, sometimes you get a theme and then you introduce it as a tournament that will decide which player is the best at this. Like which Jedi or Sith can Rule the Galaxy, or in Mario Party's case who will become the true Superstar and so on, it really get's people hooked and they want to join because they want that title etc.
Q: Who do you look to for inspiration when organizing your tournaments?
No one really I am my own inspiration
Q: Describe the experience of your first tournament ran, and first played in.
WWII Extravaganza was the first tourney I went in but I pulled out because it was too long and I had other commitments, no offense Kilazul I really enjoyed the first tourney I ran it was exciting and organisational skills come naturally to me so I like it. Especially when that first person posts and says I want to be in your tournament it feels good.
Q: How many tournaments have you run already, and do you have a goal in mind for how many you want to run in total before you "retire"? How many are you running right now?
I have completed 1 with 4 nearing completion, I don't have a goal I suppose I will keep running them until I get tired of them which isn't anytime soon
Q:What tournaments have you organized?
StarWars: The Jedi Knights vs. The Sith Lords
StarWars: The Jedi Knights vs. The Sith Lords II
Mario Party Super Star
Sam's World Domination Tournament
Awesome Foursome Tournament
Q:What is your favourite tournament you have run?
Mario Party has been fun maybe because I am playing well in it myself and doing really well
Q: What is your favorite tournament you've played in? Why?
Mario Party because I am doing really well.
Q:Do you prefer to run or enter tournaments?
Run them it is much more fun, it is hard work sometimes but I like it that way
Q: Is there a specific type of format that you tend to gravitate towards? Why? Is there a format that is your favourite?
Well 3 of my Tournaments have been Quadruples so I would say that, except Singles is also good Settings are usually Sequential, Escalating, Unlimited, Sunny. I find the tournament goes a little faster with Escalating
Q: Do you find it easier to choose tournament settings yourself, or to let the players customize them?
I have only let players choose their settings ONCE and it is Hard especially when there are 48 different maps and settings you have to set up Definently easier to choose yourself, because you can just set up 48 of the same game
Q: Overall, are you playing a lot in tournaments? If not, then why and where do you find your games to play?
I am playing in all of my own tourneys so 4 plus Gilligans Super Smash Bros. and Diamonds14 Mario Kart: Grand Prix. so 6 all up. I play a lot also with my fellow xi gamers so I don't play many public games
Q: How excited where you with your first CC win?
I played 25 games before I got a win I know it sounds a bit sad but I was ecstatic when I won
Q:Have you ever won a tournament?
Unfortunately no but then again it doesn't really worry me, I am just here to have fun, it ain't all about winning but it is a nice bonus if you do
Q: What is your most disappointing tournament loss to date?
WWII Extravaganza our team never won a game for about 15 games, but then again the other team was a perfect combination... vicmasters, Bigroo4601, Hambone and aspalm...
Q: In your mind, what makes a successful tournament?
You have to have an interesting introduction and a good title so when they look down the list of tournaments they can just say "yep I want to find out more about that". You have to come across as if you know what you are doing, and if you are doing it just to get more medals then maybe you shouldn't organise them. Keep the participants updated don't leave them in the dark, And congratulate them on their wins
Q: What do you consider to be the most successful tournaments you've seen run?
I admire Army of Achilles for being so bold in asking for 256 players for the Ultimate All Maps Tourney, unfortunately I got eliminated in the first round He made like 1000 games for just Round 1 And he showed great organisational skills well done. Night Strike's Olympic tourney I haven't heard much about it but i know it was big...
Q: What is the best Tournament that you think has been underestimated?
I don't really have an answer for this question, but with some of the bigger tourneys that asked for 200 plus players I was surprised to see them get off the ground...
Q:Have you ever been disappointed in a tournament you have run? What about one you entered?
Yes the Classical Tournament from Tk421 I played my last game a month ago and have never heard anything since and there are about 4 other people in the same boat, get your act together Tk No disappointments in my own tourneys of course
Q: What makes a successful organizer?
Organisers need to know what they are getting themselves into once you set one up you are committed to see it out, I have seen many tourneys fizzle from bad organisational skills...
Q: How do you attract players to your tournament, and what aspect (besides a reward of a premium prize or something like that) of a tournament do you think appeals to a lot of players and why?
Like I said before the concept of win this tourney and you get a title, like people just like being on top And you need to have an interesting idea behind your tournament, this grabs players and they think "oh this is new I might have a go"...
Q: Is there anything in particular that you dislike about tournament organizing?
It sometimes can be time consuming, and people not reading the first post completely and then giving you incomplete information
Q: For you, what is the best part of being a tournament organizer?
Satisfaction of providing enjoyment for other players...
Q: What mistakes do you see tournament organizers make the most?
Being unorganised and when they don't know everything that is involved in it, then they freak out and quit.
Q: With experience comes the wisdom of knowing what mistakes you've made in the past so you can avoid them in the future. What mistakes have you made in your tournaments that you are sure to avoid in future tournaments?
Letting people choose their own maps and settings in a group of 100 people is a bad idea it is sooooo time consuming... :Thinks of Awesome Foursome Tournament:
Q:What is your opinion on organizer neutrality? Should organizers be allowed to place themselves against their own clanmates in tournaments? Should organizers be allowed to join their own tournaments at all?
It's not like you really have any upperhand if you participate in your own tourney only if you play well will you win...It's their choice whether they go up against their clanmates but I try to avoid it.
If they cheat well that's on their conscience, and they will eventually get caught
Q: Do you use a "schedule" for updating your tournaments, or do you just wait until they need an update?
I wait till it needs a major update like at the end of a round and so on...
Q:Should "question marks" be allowed to join tournaments?
No most of them just deadbeat, and they should definitely not be able organise tournaments until they have a rank.
Q:Do you feel it is better to give a bye to players whose opponents deadbeats the tournament, or to use a reserve?
Yes I think a bye is acceptable, That person would deadbeat in the game probably as well and that would give the player the win anyway so yeah give em' a bye.
Q: If you could change one thing about Conquer Club in general, what would it be?
No I can't think of anything wrong with the site, I think the admins and mods do a great job, and everything is good
Q: If there was something that the Conquer Club administrators could implement into the game to make tournaments easier to manage, what would it be? Similarly, is there anything you would like to see taken away from Conquer Club to make running tournaments easier?
1 months premium for every 5 tournaments run as if that would ever happen No I am happy with the way things are Although a program where you could organise your tournament games would be good and PM Groups so you can just send an invite to a whole bunch of people that have been in your tourneys before...
Q: If you are thinking purely on balance of tournament games is there anything you would want changing?
No not really...
Q: Is there anything that you would recommend to encourage new tournament organizers?
I think it is quite easy to organise tourneys but to encourage new people, it would be hard they have to have the motivation and I don't think there is anything more that can be done except for that 1 month premium for every 5 tournaments run idea that was good...
Q: List your top 5 biggest tournament headache's to this point
1. Letting players choose their own maps and settings
2. Deadbeaters
3. Incomplete Information in Post's
4. Being in a badly organised Tournament
5.People asking questions that are answered in the original post
Q:How much time does CC take from your day?
3 or 4 hours maybe I have never really kept track sometimes more sometimes less, usually less though...
Q:Are you a member of any clans or usergroups?
Xi Games all the way the best group to be in, very friendly and awesome I am also in the Down Under usergroup.
Q:Who are you?
My name is Sam, I am a 19 year-old university student from Gosford, Australia....:Go Aussies:
Q: Why did you pick the name samuelc812?
It's weird actually when I was picking my hotmail address I wanted samuelc777 but it was unavailable, and it gave me a few options and one of them was samuelc812 so I chose it and it is my username for almost everything now
Q:Where are you from?
Sydney, Australia
Q:Favourite play colour?
Green for sure
Q:Favourite and least favourite map?
Iberia and Sydney Metro are my faves and I also play a lot of World 2.1.
I am very sorry cairnswk but I absolutely loathe Waterloo, it is the most confusing map in the entire world Sorry mate all your other maps are awesome though
Q:Favourite settings?
No Cards, Flat Rate or Escalating, Unlimited, Sunny
Q:Freestyle or sequential?
Q: Any tournaments planned for the future? What are they?
As a sequel to the Awesome Foursome Tournament I will be running a Double Trouble Tournament soon, then after that I have to find a rhyme for triple maybe Triple Cripple
Q: Any parting shots?
No parting shots from me....
Q: Thank you for your time.

A problem can occur if one or more of these substances are spilled or otherwise released. Although the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) covers the reporting of pesticides spills, it does not cover the planning needed for handling spills nor the involvement of other substances in such emergencies as fires, earthquakes, floods, storms or transportation accidents that cause hazardous substance releases.
EPCRA also is known as Title III of SARA (the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act). One part of this law established requirements for state and local governments to obtain information on the storage of extremely hazardous substances that would cause serious, irreversible health effects from an accidental release (spill) into the environment.
A list of about 366 extremely hazardous substances with their action levels is associated with this part of the law. Its intent is to provide local and state officials in emergency service agencies with information on the amounts, types and location of the extremely hazardous substances stored within their jurisdiction. The local officials can then make plans with the people and businesses to handle spills, fires and other emergencies involving these extremely hazardous substances.
Common pesticides included in this list that are currently registered for use are listed in Table 1.
Table 1Common pesticides on the SARA Title III List of Extremely Hazardous Substances.
Remember these two important terms in connection with this law: "Threshold Planning Quantity (TPQ)" and "Reportable Quantity (RQ)." TPQs provide authorities with storage information; RQs provide spill information. These quantities are listed in pounds.
Storage Quantities (TPQ)The "TPQ" Threshold Planning Quantity is the amount of substance(s) in pounds in your possession at any one time that is at or above the listed quantity of active ingredients. It triggers the EPCRA report. Once this amount or more is in your possession, it must be reported within 60 days. An annual Tier II report is to be made to each of the following:
A list of Local Emergency Planning Committees is available from your MU Extension center.
Farms and small businesses are not exempt from these regulations.
You or someone at the facility is identified to work with the planning agencies. Businesses will need to provide Material Safety Data Sheets, (MSDSs) to the agencies listed above, upon request.
Then it is the responsibility of the notified agencies working with the businesses and people that store these chemicals to complete the emergency planning process.
Another part of EPCRA requires businesses with significant amounts of substances in storage during the year — 10,000 pounds or more of any material with an MSDS or 500 pounds or more of the "TPQ" of any "Extremely Hazardous Substance" — to provide annual Tier II reports. If you have any questions about Tier II reporting, contact the Missouri Department of Natural Resources for information, Tier II forms and instructions.
Spill Quantities (RQ)"RQ," reportable quantity, refers to a spill or emergency release of one or more of the hazardous substances. The hazardous substances list has the RQ in pounds of active ingredient just as it does for the TPQ of each of the extremely hazardous substances. When a release occurs, it must be reported immediately.
These requirements exist for Emergency Release Notification of a Reportable (Spilled) Quantity:
Civil penaltiesFailure to provide EPCRA reports can result in penalties of up to $25,000 for each day for each violation. Also, anyone who fails to comply with the requirements of Emergency Release Notification is subject to civil penalties up to $25,000 for each violation. A continuing violation is subject to a civil penalty of $25,000 each day the violation continues. In the case of a second or subsequent violation, that person may be subject to civil penalties of up to $75,000 for each day the second violation continues.
Criminal penaltiesAnyone who knowingly and willfully fails to comply with the Emergency Release Notification provisions of SARA/EPCRA shall upon conviction be fined not more than $25,000 or imprisoned for not more than two years — or both. In the case of a second or subsequent conviction, that person shall be fined not more than $50,000 or imprisoned for not more than five years — or both.
Failure to report an emergency release or spill may trigger legal action under SARA Title III. Failure to report a pesticide spill to avoid these regulations also would mean violating the Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
Some related Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations also may apply. These involve any business with employees. The business must keep a file of MSDSs on hand for employees.
As a further aid in recognizing hazards, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 704 marking system is to be used to alert people to the type and degree of hazard within an area. A diamond-shaped sign with four smaller diamonds within the larger diamond is the 704 marker. The four smaller diamonds are color coded. Blue indicates a health hazard, red a flammability hazard, yellow a reactivity hazard, and white specifies hazards such as oxidizers, radioactivity, biological hazard, and/or water reactivity. A "0" to "4" scale judges the degree of hazard associated with blue, red, and yellow quadrants. The signs should be placed on buildings, rooms and containers where hazardous materials are kept.
Information on the Local Emergency Planning Committees and lists of the Extremely Hazardous Substances are available from the Missouri Emergency Response Commission, Department of Natural Resources, P.O. Box 3133, Jefferson City, Mo. 65102, 573-526-3901.
Figure 1The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 704 Marker
The "W" with a bar through it (W) indicates the specific hazard of water reactivity. Other symbols can indicate oxidizers, radioactivity or biological hazards.
The numbers "0" to "4" indicate the degree of hazard associated with a quadrant. "0" is the lowest degree and indicates no hazard. "4" indicates an extreme hazard.

Could Rory McIlroy's hot streak be coming to an end?
It's still early, but the No. 1-ranked golfer from Northern Ireland got off to a slow start at The Barclays on Thursday, suffering two bogeys and a double on his first nine holes.
McIlroy entered the first stop of the four-event FedEx Cup playoff series with three wins in his last three starts, including a PGA Championship victory.
"I'm just trying to keep it going for as long as I can," he said this week. "Try and keep the momentum going."
A FedEx Cup title would be the perfect capper for a season that also includes a British Open title.
"For me, it would just be very gratifying to know that I finished the season off well and the way that it should be finished off," he said.
Australian Steven Bowditch stood at 5-under to grab the early lead at Ridgewood Country Club, followed by a pack of golfers -- including Ryo Ishikawa and Cameron Tringale -- one stroke back.

Scientists and engineers at NASA are using origami techniques to help solve a fundamental dilemma facing spacecraft designers: How do you take a big object, pack it into a small container for rocket launch, and then unpack it again once it arrives in space — making sure nothing breaks in the process.
Brian Trease, an engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, says one way is to use something called the Miura fold, named for its inventor, Japanese astrophysicist Koryo Miura.
As an example, Trease folds up a sheet of paper using the Miura fold. (Grab a sheet of paper and you can follow along, step-by-step, here or in this youtube video.)
The folded sheet looks a bit like the folded maps you can buy at gas stations. But instead of multiple steps to unfold it, all you need to do is grasp the corners of the paper and pull. It's simple — and simplicity is key when designing a spacecraft.
"If I was deploying [a solar panel] in space," Trease says, "I would only need one motor to do that deployment. That's the beauty of the design."
And the usefulness of origami in space exploration doesn't end with solar panels.
For example, we can now print things like electronic circuits, solar cells and displays directly onto sheets of paper, Trease says, and scientists are devising ways take these sheets and fold them up into into useful instruments — such as seismometers or atmospheric detectors.
"What really excites me is the idea of just sending the entire printer up into orbit," Trease says. Then if you needed a different sensor, he explains, you could just upload the design and print out a new one in space.
"There are folks here," he says, "interested in what we call printable spacecraft."
From NPR News, it's ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish.
I'm Robert Siegel. And now it's time for more Unfolding Science.
SIEGEL: Yes, that sound means we're going to hear a story from NPR science correspondent Joe Palca about how things fold and unfold in science. Today, Joe tells us about an ancient folding technique. It's being applied to the most modern of scientific endeavors, exploring space.
JOE PALCA, BYLINE: Let's say you're a spacecraft designer, and you want to carry a giant solar panel into space. In order to fit it into your rocket, you need to fold it up. Now, you could fold it in half and then in half again and then in half again. But once in space, you'd have to reverse the process, unfolding one fold, then another, then another. Or you could use the ancient art of origami to help you out.
BRIAN TREASE: I have a demo right here, actually.
PALCA: Brian Trease is an engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. The demo is just a sheet of typing paper, folded over and over so it's about the size of a large matchbook. Trease made it using a newly created origami fold named for its inventor, Japanese astrophysicist Koryo Miura. And it's the way the sheet unfolds that's remarkable. Trease grasps the top and bottom of the matchbook and pulls. And in one motion it opens to a flat sheet again - simple. And simplicity is key when you're designing spacecraft.
TREASE: If I was deploying this in space, I would only need one motor to do that deployment.
PALCA: It's cool because it looks like - it looks like - when you see it sitting there, it looks like you'd have to unfold it in several steps. And the idea that you can just pull it apart and have it fully open is pretty amazing.
TREASE: So that's the beauty of the design.
PALCA: And this isn't the only way origami might help spacecraft designers. For example, Trease says there are now printers that can print things like electronic circuits and computer memory directly onto a sheet of paper.
TREASE: They say, wow, I can print all that on a sheet of paper. That's almost all the systems you need for a spacecraft. So there's folks here interested in what we call printable spacecraft.
PALCA: Printable spacecraft.
TREASE: Printable spacecraft.
PALCA: You'd print the electronic stuff on a flat sheet, and use origami folding to turn it into some useful shape - probably not a swan, but maybe a soccer ball that could roll around on another planet. And to land these printable spacecrafts, all you need to do is shove them out the door of a probe orbiting overhead.
TREASE: We call these flutter landers. And they just fall to the surface. And then, once they're down, then they could assemble into their shapes or do their science - something like that.
PALCA: That sounds so wild. But that's what happens when you start unfolding science. Joe Palca, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Just when we thought that perhaps the bitter rivalry between the St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers , we get the news of the unfortunate FAMILY SEATING INCIDENT.
The Brewers were super pissed when they showed up at Busch Stadium on Wednesday to discover that the 350 tickets allotted to their family members for the three NLCS games in St. Louis were not exactly where they supposed to be.
The entire bunch were supposed to be seated in an awesome party suite, but only 200 tickets were designated for that area with the other 150 scattered throughout the ballpark. This, just a day after Tony La Russa filed an official complaint regarding Miller Park's scoreboard. We're not even going to get into that whole ordeal, because it's dumb as hell, but you can read more about it here.
Nyjer Morgan, the main instigator of this particular rivalry, had this to say:
"You know I think it's bush [league]. Our families, they've got to be secured. It's kind of garbage. We put their [families] in a secure section and then they want to spread ours out. I don't know why they play the mental games, but that right there, they shouldn't play the games right there because that's our family and our family has got to be secure. But that's just them, that's how they operate right there I guess."
Bush league... like plowing into catchers at the plate when there's clearly no play being made? Or charging the mound after you lose your temper? Or just because you struck out? We all know what they say about opinions.
We do think it's worth noting, however, that the families of St. Louis players were all seated behind home plate within the safety of the net while in Milwaukee, and the family members of the Philadelphia Phillies players were given the same courtesy at Busch Stadium during the NLDS...
Game 4 is all set for 8:05pm ET on TBS. Enjoy.

Not content to just invent the future, the technology barons of Silicon Valley are now turning their formidable minds to authoring books about this future. First there was LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman's bestselling self-help manual, "The Start-Up of You." Then Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg provoked a national debate with her feminist polemic, "Lean In." And now, with The New Digital Age, Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt and Google Direct of Ideas Jared Cohen have written a book that, in just under 300 pages, attempts to map out the entire future of our networked century.
With chapters on everything from the future of our selves and our identities to the future of states, revolutions, and terrorism, Schmidt and Cohen certainly can't be accused of thinking small. Indeed, their book, subtitled "Reshaping the Future of People, Nations and Business," contains the breathtaking ambition of a start-up with a particularly disruptive technology – a play that, inside Google, is known as a "moon shot."
"The Internet is the largest experiment involving anarchy in history," Schmidt and Cohen write. But it's "among the few things humans have built that they don't truly understand."
Their goal is to repair that failure and make sense of this anarchy, to actually understand the Internet. So is this the book that successfully imagines the destination of this historic collaboration? Have Schmidt and Cohen succeeded with their moon shot?
The answer, I'm happy to report, is mostly yes. I was impressed with both the conceptual scope and empirical research packed into "The New Digital Age." Schmidt and Cohen make a formidable intellectual duo, combining Schmidt's encyclopedic knowledge of digital technology with Cohen's equally impressive grasp of international diplomacy and politics. And as a co-authored effort, "The New Digital Age" reads with surprising clarity, verve, and even occasional wit – a consequence, I suspect, of the admirable editorial skills of Schmidt's daughter, Sophie, the book's "internal editor," to whom the authors acknowledge "a huge debt of gratitude."
As executives at Silicon Valley's most aggressively cheerful company, Schmidt and Cohen's version of the future is, of course, mostly optimistic. The central theme in "The New Digital Age" is the shift in power from traditional 20th-century political, economic, and cultural institutions to the 21st-century individual. The authors certainly aren't the first to note this great transformation, but they do examine it with subtlety and intelligence, particularly their focus on the ways in which digital technology potentially empowers the citizen.
I particularly liked Schmidt and Cohen's sophisticated analysis of the future of identity on a radically transparent network where individual privacy is essentially dead. With this death of privacy, they explain, public reputation becomes our most valuable asset – the thing that will most define our success and failure in a hypervisible world. They are good also on the educational ramifications of a world in which, by 2025, all 8 billion humans will be on the network – a change, Schmidt and Cohen predict, that will empower experimental online schools like the Khan Academy.
I found their section on revolutions particularly balanced and interesting. They note that the Internet is no friend of autocratic regimes. And yet they believe that the pace of revolutions driven by online protest will fail to generate mature revolutionary leaders like Nelson Mandela or Lech Walesa. Most memorable of all, however, is their warning about "revolutionary tourists" – the online activists of the future who will "spend all day crawling the web for online protests to join ... just for the thrill of it."
My only criticism of "The New Digital Age" is that occasionally Schmidt and Cohen let their techno-enthusiasm get the better of their analysis. The section, for example, on holographic travel – of being able to essentially transport oneself digitally somewhere else – is a bit too "Star Trek"-ish. And their classic Silicon Valley belief in the power of reason – in a strictly utilitarian network of rational people and rational government – sometimes crosses over into the Fordism so savagely parodied in Huxley's "Brave New World."
But it's their quasi-religious faith in the democratizing power of the Internet that is most irritating. Here, Schmidt and Cohen sometimes leave their own scientific reason at the door. "In the future," they promise, "people won't just back up their data; they'll back up their government." No, I won't drink that Kool-Aid. And nor, I suspect, will anyone reading this book in Iran, China, or Russia.
That said, "The New Digital Age" can't be dismissed as another cyber-utopian manifesto about the ways networked technology will inevitably save humanity. Schmidt and Cohen are careful to remind us that their work is "about humans" and that "what happens in the future is up to us." They understand and detail the darker side of the Internet, with its real-time warlords, its online mobs seeking immediate collective justice, and, most of all, its data that democratizes the making of terrorist bombs and drones.
"Technology", these two titans of Silicon Valley so rightly tell us, "is no panacea." The future, they say, is a "tale of two civilizations." It's the story of darkness and light, of both the freedom and tyranny created by the 21st-century network. This is the muddy, ambivalent online world mapped out "The New Digital Age." It may not have the clarity of Google maps, but it's just about the best guide we have for a misty digital future that even writers as perspicacious as Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen can't quite see.

I recently wrote a blog about the grief that parents suffer when they lose an unborn child. At the risk of sounding crass, I want to now discuss the economics of lawsuits involving the death of an unborn child. For those contemplating taking legal action for the loss of their child, I hope this provides some useful information for you to consider.
Maryland courts have carved out specific rules for when an unborn child is considered a person capable of recovering damages in the event of death. The primary rule is that if a baby is actually born alive, no matter at what gestational age, that baby is considered a person with legal rights. So, if a 20-week baby is born alive and then dies one minute later, that baby is considered a "person," and a lawsuit can be filed on behalf of the estate for that baby's pain and suffering, otherwise known as a Survival Action.
(This leads to an interesting question – does a fetus feel pain? See Related Links below). The parents of the unborn child can also file what is known as a Wrongful Death action for their own economic and non-economic damages resulting from the death of their baby, primarily their grief and emotional loss over the death of their child. Survival actions and Wrongful Death actions are two separate claims, although they are usually pursued in the same lawsuit.
When a baby dies before birth, however, another question has to be asked: was the baby viable or not? Viability means that a baby is able to live outside the womb, even though he or she may require serious medical intervention. The current thinking is that babies are viable at around 22 weeks. The courts have made the rule that if an unborn child dies before the age of viability, that baby is not yet a "person" and has no legal rights. There can be no Survival Action and there can be no Wrongful Death action. If, however, the baby has reached the age of viability, then the baby is considered "a person" with legal rights, even if the baby was never born alive. Confusing? Yes it is.
The Maryland Courts were following the ruling in Roe v. Wade that a mother had a constitutional right to abort a non-viable baby. Therefore, a non-viable baby was not legally considered a person. If the baby was not a person, then no lawsuit could be filed on behalf of the estate of that baby, nor could the parents file a wrongful death action. So in order for a Survival Action or a Wrongful Death action to lie for an unborn baby, that baby has to have reached at least 22 weeks of gestation.
To make things even more confusing, the Maryland courts have carved out an exception to the above rules. Let's consider the example of a non-viable baby (i.e., less than 22 weeks gestation) who dies before birth as a result of someone else's negligence that injures the mother.
A common situation occurs when the mother (let's say she's 8 weeks pregnant) is injured in a car accident and suffers a miscarriage as a result. Looking at the above rules, one would think that no claim is allowed. However, the courts have said not so fast. In this circumstance, while the mother cannot recover for the grief of losing her child (because the child is non-viable and, therefore, not legally a person), she can recover for similar damages, including:
- The depression, anguish, and grief caused by the termination of the pregnancy;
- The manner in which the pregnancy was terminated;
- Having to carry a baby which was killed by someone else's tortious conduct; and
- Having to witness the stillborn child or the fetal tissue that was to be her child.
I realize this itemization of damages sounds awfully close to the damages permitted in a Wrongful Death action – the very damages that are not allowed in the case of a non-viable baby. It is confusing, to say the least. The courts are trying to find a way to compensate a woman who is injured and loses her non-viable baby as a result of someone else's negligence, while remaining true to prior precedent in this state that there is no Wrongful Death action allowed in the case of a non-viable baby.
Lastly, keep in mind that Maryland's cap on non-economic damages applies to cases involving the death of an unborn baby. Economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) are usually very small in such cases. There are no lost wages because we're talking about a baby, and the medical bills are usually small.
The value of these cases is in the emotional pain and suffering of the parents, and the physical pain and suffering of the baby (assuming a viable baby). Under Maryland law, the maximum allowable recovery for such a claim is $868,750 in a medical negligence action (assuming Mom and Dad both file a wrongful death action).
Under the hypothetical of the mother seeking recovery for the loss of a non-viable baby, the maximum allowable recovery is $695,000 if the allegation is medical negligence, and $755,000 if the allegation is non-medical negligence. (The Maryland Legislature has for some strange reason imposed different caps depending on whether the negligence is medical or non-medical, e.g., a car accident).

Between the Racist World and Ta Coates
By Alfonso Dupont on July 24, 2015
Format: Kindle Edition
Ta Coates is one of the great thinkers of the 21st century. Don't agree? Then you're on the wrong side of history.
Ta has written a book for the ages, chronicling such fascinating episodes as dating, doing poorly in academics because of racism, reading comic books, the racism of attractive white women he has asked out, what it was like to be in a down low relationship with Matt Yglesias for five months, cartoons, and the phenomenon known as "muhdik". Between the World and Me (a brilliant title that counterbalances the entire world with Ta Coates' genius) ranks with the Confessions of St. Augustine, if St. Augustine had done poorly in school and mostly just watched television and read comic books during his formative years. In fact St. Augustine is a rather trivial figure in Western history that you don't need to have heard of, he never even influenced society through highly praised magazine columns, and his books are very boring compared to reading about the adventures of men in colorful skin tight costumes.
During a long and rambling eighth chapter, Ta discusses his brave decision to disable comments on his blog. He shows how talking back to a highly paid media personality is an example of "punching down", employing a series of stories which usually involve noting that people who have promoted him are actually racist and did so only because they expected him to fail. There's also a moving account of how he literally wept on discovering how to turn on Microsoft Word's spelling and grammar checker.
As A.O.Scott has observed, Between Ta World and Me is "essential, like water or air", a truism you'd have to be a real hate-in-your-soul racist to deny. As a matter of fact, people who are too racist to read and enjoy this brilliantly spelled and grammar-checked volume are expected to die very soon because this book is literally essential, like water or air. An edition in which all of the book's passages are placed as dialogue between comic book heroes Black Lightning and Luke Cage is said to be in the works.
Like Ta's 14-year-old son, you may not be interested in reading through the many spelling and grammar corrected pages of this book, but even just having it on your bookshelf is important until the forthcoming graphic novel version arrives. How will they know you're not a racist otherwise? I personally enjoy reading it while enjoying water and air, two things that like this book are essential. Thus I give it the first star rating of excellence.

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Hello world.
I'm back at it after a couple week hiatus.
What happened during that time, you ask?
(Or maybe you don't. I often think people are more interested in my shenanigans than they actually are.)
For one, I took the bajillion days off that I had been storing all year long for no particular purpose.
I used the time to experience the culture of the Pennsylvania Farm Show.
I also learned about the SnapChat app from my sister. My life will never be the same.
How it works: You send someone an image, but they can only see it for 10 seconds before it disappears. You can draw on the photo. Give them a mustache. Type a message on top of it. Whatever.
But they can only see it for 10 BLOODY SECONDS.
I don't get it, but I love it. And I hear it's what the kids are doing these days. Continue reading

Calling ALL Artists
Sandy Hook Elementary School – Book Drive
On behalf of the NEIT Criminal Justice Club, we would like to thank all of you that responded to our book drive in memory of those that were killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012. As a result of your overwhelming support of this initiative, we were able to collect a total of 984 books. This far exceeded our initial goal.
As many of you may know, the Newtown CT community was overwhelmed with donations and requested that any other donations be distributed locally in memory of the lives lost. As a result, our books were donated to the West Warwick Public Library and the Hasbro Children's Hospital. The donations were accompanied by a framed NEIT Certificate which acknowledges the donation being made in memory of the lives lost at the Sandy Hook Elementary School, Newtown CT, December 14, 2012.
Both locations will display the certificate and each book will be affixed with a placard acknowledging the in memoriam.

Hey, N4Gers! We've been playing around with the idea of creating an N4G web show - N4G TV. The idea is to have a short news show each Friday that covers the past week on N4G by featuring news and user content like great comments and blogs.
We're at the point in the process where we are in talks with a production company, and so we are giving a lot of thought to format and content. We'd love to have some input from you guys on what you would like to see in the show!
Sound off below, we look froward to incorporating your ideas in the pilot episode!
Personally, I'd rather the site be consistently functional first. Maybe have the forums work properly in Firefox for the first time in years. Give the hamster a break and buy some real servers.
Walk before you run, and all that.
General priorities aside, you'd have to find a way to separate yourselves from all the gaming podcasts out there, since that seems like what you're trying to produce.
While I find this to be a pretty interesting concept, I just can't wrap my head around having content featured. Would it be highest-temperature articles showcased in the episodes? If so, we users can easily read them ourselves since the highest temperature submissions usually make it to the top of the page. :)
It seems pretty redundant to have a recap, so to speak, of articles that a majority of the community has already read by the time the week's episode goes live.
The show could have users skype in and ask questions, comment, or something, that'd be cool..
I'd like to know the faces of some of the users around here eh lol jk.
lets see how it goes
Sounds like a great idea especially highlighting the user content.
Ideas wise maybe highlight a good free game of the week that can be either found by you or recommended by the community and show what it is about
A way to highlight forum post might be an interesting way to get more people involved in the forums
Having a "Troll of the week" section in the show would be fitting. :)
Jokes aside (not really), As Megaton stated - First get the moderation and functionality of the site working properly before widening your content channels. The forum is a mess, and trolling, spam and duplicate accounts are also a low point on N4G that hasn't been dealt with properly.
I also agree with Valenka. Instead of just repeating what everyone's already read why not have the editors pick their own favourite nuggets of the week? Tell us what games you've been playing and/or interview some interesting people from the games industry.
And give some props to the users who write reviews. Some of them are really good.

what do you think is the best manual hand pump?
thanks for any suggestions.
I loved/love my Avent Isis. I had the best success with that little hand pump. I was better able to do breast compressions while pumping with it and had greater output using it than my Medela PISA.

SURPRISE!!! We caught the first PP egg and are currently baking baby BOY #4! Due to arrive late-Jan/early-Feb
And by contrast, if I had to use a manual handpump I think I'd die. My favorite manual handpump is a double electric.

Devoted wife to SAHD P, my hero
A few of my favorite things that I've discovered on the forum: co-sleeping, baby-wearing, tandem nursing, baby-led solids, cloth diapering, APing, selective vaccination...the list goes on
I normally use the Medela Freestyle (double-electric) but have had the Harmony manual pump as a backup - it has worked just fine for me for occasional use.
I have a double electric pump for work but I get great output when needed from the Medela Harmony.
I also found that using the angled flange made by Pumpin Pal is much more comfortable for manual pumping (allows you to hold your hand at a more comfortable angle) and on the Harmony it just substitutes for the regular flange.
Mama to M, BF 17mo
and H, born Feb '12
I'm currently PAK using the EvenFlo Manual It's cheap but I use it when I get home from work before bed and get just as much as I do from my Avent Isis iQ Duo.
Daniel Keith + Rachel Joy = Leonel Dante [4/13/2012]
I use(d) the Medela Harmony as needed and have been happy with it. There are definite benefits to using a manual pump sometimes - not having to plug anything in or have a big setup is awesome! However I am a SAHM so I wasn't pumping at work or for extended periods. I got rid of my first one when my daughter weaned but bought a second one not too long ago when I needed it for my son.

Rafael Nadal further cemented his place as the world's greatest athlete in capri pants by beating Roger Federer in the finals of the French Open this morning, 1-6, 6-1, 6-4, 7-6 (4). And in celebration, not settling for a simple kiss of the French Open trophy, he attempted to perform fellatio on it. He's an affectiontae man, Rafael Nadal.
I was a little disappointed. I wanted five sets, and honestly, I wanted Federer to win. It looked like he was completely dead halfway through the fourth set, but he fought back, which is rare for a Swiss guy. He forced a tiebreaker, but he just never seemed to find his groove. He had a lot of unforced errors, and Nadal, of course, was great. But I just can't support a guy who wears his sister's pants. I'm sorry. It bothers me.
It's 60 straight wins on clay for Rafa, and he's now 6-1 all-time against Federer, both of which are freakin' mind-boggling. And we'll see at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open if he can translate that level of play to any other surface.

UK Politicians Offer An Awful Bargain: Give Up Free Press If You Want Defamation Reform
from the free-expression-shouldn't-be-horse-traded dept
Of course, fixing the problem has been a long and ongoing process as well, with various defamation reform packages proposed, but never getting anywhere. It had looked like the latest proposal might finally have a chance of passing... but that may now be scuttled due to a different controversial idea that has been attached to the bill.
As you may recall, after the News Corp. phone hacking scandal, the UK set up a commission on "media ethics" to explore issues related to preventing such scandals from happening again, and tragically, the recommendations included heavy regulation for the press. The rules go way overboard if you believe in freedom of the press, and really seem more designed to prevent rich and famous people from being embarrassed by the press, rather than stop egregious ethics violations.
So, here's the problem. The defamation reform package was moving forward nicely, when some politicians decided to basically lump a "Leveson Amendment" onto the bill, so that the UK is now faced with an unfortunate tradeoff. They could fix the broken defamation laws, but would have to do so at the cost of giving up basic press freedoms. It's unfortunate that UK politicians, apparently led by David Puttnam, have put others in the position of having to make that kind of ridiculous tradeoff. A functioning democracy that believes in free expression should support both a very limited defamation law and protections for a free press. Asking people to trade one for the other is really quite a travesty.
