The Way

AbstractThe expectation and arrival of a baby has always played a significant role in many societies across the globe. For simple reasons, babies are perceived as blessings from God. Hence, there is the need to shower the mother-to-be and her unborn baby with gifts and advice in preparation for welcoming, not only the bundle of joy, but also the new additional member into the family. The article is based on data that were collected from baby showers in greater Gaborone over a period of twelve months. The concept of Botho/Ubuntu cuts across as one of the major initiatives that drive baby showers. The goal of this paper is to establish what baby showers entail, how these initiatives started and how they are conducted. But most importantly, the paper will argue that baby showers are a community building initiative in the urban space. The paper seeks to establish the extent to which baby showers are gendered, using analytical insights from the theory of the “good mother”.

✓ The author reports a family in which four members had intracranial aneurysms and one additional member was suspect. One member had multiple aneurysms that were successfully treated surgically. Elective angiography on five asymptomatic members of the family disclosed asymptomatic aneurysms in two. In addition, cerebrovascular anomalies were found in many of the family members. The parents of the family were consanguineous. High incidence of these associated anomalies and consanguinity in the parents tend to suggest the hereditary basis of the disease. Banding analysis of chromosomes in three siblings with aneurysms and three siblings without aneurysms was carried out. Elective investigation of the asymptomatic members should be considered where there are already two or more affected in a family. The indications for surgical prophylaxis on asymptomatic aneurysms in other members of the family are discussed.

White, Kathryn and Miriam Latimer. Ruby’s Baby Brother. Cambridge, MA: Barefoot Books, 2013. Print.Ruby’s Baby Brother is a delightful new entry in the “Ruby’s” series, in which Ruby experiences new activities and situations (Ruby’s School Walk, Ruby’s Sleepover). This third installment is particularly for young children who may relate to the roller coaster feelings of excitement, uncertainty, jealousy and joy when facing the prospect of an additional member to the family.  The book reads with remarkable rhyming and dancing texts on each page.  Latimer’s illustrations introduce readers to a loving young family, living in a colourful and cozy home. Inside this home is Ruby, with cute curly ponytails, waiting anxiously by the window as her parents walk to the house from their red car.  She has a strong negative impression of babies, and is honest in her thoughts: “Babies are smelly;…and Leon is bound to snatch all my toys”. To solve this paramount problem, Ruby imaginatively plans to use magic to let her brother fly away as a bat or be blasted up to the moon in a rocket that she makes. One wonders if better preparation would have helped this little girl’s “strange” and “scary” feelings.    Ruby also articulates her fears and vulnerability toward her new baby brother, Leon.  “What if he says to me, ‘This is My house./ So Ruby, I’m turning you into a mouse.”  However, when she gets a chance to hold and cuddle with Leon, she realizes her brother is actually harmless, “warm and small”.  And she embarks on a courageous quest to include her brother in all her adventures as “a queen and a knight” to the sea, the sky and outer space.  She would even protect him from night time witches and wizards. Accompanying this fanciful big-sister journey is the adorable depiction of a family’s new-baby reality: new crib and toys in nursery, mommy breast-feeding and daddy changing diapers.  The charming stick people drawings on opening and closing pages reassure readers that little baby brother is no longer a distant figure separated from the family at the other side of the house, and he is welcomed into the arms and affectionate gaze of a happy Ruby.Recommended:  3 stars out of 4Reviewer:  Liza ChanLiza Chan is a Research Librarian, cross-appointed at Alberta Innovates – Health Solutions and University of Alberta John W.

Hells Canyon

Two Upper Triassic sphinctozoan sponges of the family Sebargasiidae were recovered from silicified residues collected in Hells Canyon, Oregon. These sponges areAmblysiphonellacf.A. steinmanni(Haas), known from the Tethys region, andColospongia whalenin. sp., an endemic species. The latter sponge was placed in the superfamily Porata by Seilacher (1962). The presence of well-preserved cribrate plates in this sponge, in addition to pores of the chamber walls, is a unique condition never before reported in any porate sphinctozoans. Aporate counterparts known primarily from the Triassic Alps have similar cribrate plates but lack the pores in the chamber walls. The sponges from Hells Canyon are associated with abundant bivalves and corals of marked Tethyan affinities and come from a displaced terrane known as the Wallowa Terrane. It was a tropical island arc, suspected to have paleogeographic relationships with Wrangellia; however, these sponges have not yet been found in any other Cordilleran terrane.

The Family

Information concerning the morphology and replication of organism of the family Mycoplasmataceae remains, despite over 70 years of study, highly controversial. Due to their small size observations by light microscopy have not been rewarding. Furthermore, not only are these organisms extremely pleomorphic but their morphology also changes according to growth phase. This study deals with the morphological aspects of M. pneumoniae strain 3546 in relation to growth, interaction with HeLa cells and possible mechanisms of replication.The organisms were grown aerobically at 37°C in a soy peptone yeast dialysate medium supplemented with 12% gamma-globulin free horse serum. The medium was buffered at pH 7.3 with TES [N-tris (hyroxymethyl) methyl-2-aminoethane sulfonic acid] at 10mM concentration. The inoculum, an actively growing culture, was filtered through a 0.5 μm polycarbonate “nuclepore” filter to prevent transfer of all but the smallest aggregates. Growth was assessed at specific periods by colony counts and 800 ml samples of organisms were fixed in situ with 2.5% glutaraldehyde for 3 hrs. at 4°C. Washed cells for sectioning were post-fixed in 0.8% OSO4 in veronal-acetate buffer pH 6.1 for 1 hr. at 21°C. HeLa cells were infected with a filtered inoculum of M. pneumoniae and incubated for 9 days in Leighton tubes with coverslips. The cells were then removed and processed for electron microscopy.
