A Book Meme

November26

Heather at Not a DIY Life tagged me for a book meme.

These are the rules
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next two to five sentences.
5. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book or the intellectual one. Pick the Closest.
6. Tag five people to do the same

The closest book I have to me is called Artemis Speaks: V.B.A.C. Stories & Natural Childbirth Information written and compiled by Nan Koehler. I have no idea what I’m going to get on page 56. :-)

“Most obstetricians use technology defensively in VBAC labors, in spite of the fact that there is no more justification for routine intervention than in any other labor. If a horizontal scar separates, it does not cause massive hemmorage, so there is no need for prophylactic IV. The uterus usually continues to contract normally, and an electronic fetal monitor will not pick up a scar separation.”
There you have it. I did want to break rule #5 by the way, but I didn’t do it.

I’m supposed to pick 5 people to do this meme, but instead I’m going to say if you do it, leave a comment and I’ll come read your meme.

    From Financial Accounting:

    “Recall, however, that stockholders’ equity is comprised of two parts: retained earings and common stock. Therefore, the stockholders’ equity of most companies is affected by factors other than just changes in retained earnings.
