History

Saint Etienne were one of the bands that helped define the indie dance genre in the early 1990s, fusing the production values of the dance-pop that emerged in the wake of the Second Summer of Love with the clever lyrics and self-aware production of indie music. A decade after the band’s formation, The Times observed that Saint Etienne “deftly fused the grooviness of Swinging Sixties London with a post-acid house backbeat”. During the 1990s the band also recorded two tracks - “7 Ways to Love” and “He Is Cola” - under the name “Cola Boy” with different singers; their explanation is that the tracks were “too cheesy for Saint Etienne. We’d have been finished overnight”.

Their early recordings were packed with generic house music clichés, such as standard TR-909 drum patterns and Italo house piano riffs, but they soon found a more original sound notable by the use of found dialogue, mainly from classic ’60s British realist cinema as featured on their albums Foxbase Alpha and So Tough. Some of these earlier recordings included skits by satirist Chris Morris. During the early 1990s the group enjoyed extensive coverage in UK music weekly papers NME and Melody Maker and gained a reputation as purveyors of “pure pop” in the period immediately prior to the Brit-Pop explosion. They began to shift towards a more atmospheric type of electronica in 2000 with the release of Sound of Water, dividing their fanbase.

Their best-known songs are the cover of Neil Young’s classic “Only Love Can Break Your Heart” (on which Moira Lambert provided vocals), “Nothing Can Stop Us” (which was Sarah Cracknell’s first contribution as lead singer), “You’re in a Bad Way”, and the anthemic “He’s on the Phone”. The album Finisterre was released in 2002. A follow-up DVD by photographer and film maker Paul Kelly was released July 4, 2005 (2005-07-04).

In November 2004 (2004-11), they released their first U.S. compilation of greatest hits, called Travel Edition 1990-2005.

June 13, 2005 (2005-06-13), saw the release of the band’s new album, entitled Tales from Turnpike House. It was preceded by a single for the track “Side Streets”. A second single, “A Good Thing”, was released in the United Kingdom on October 31, 2005 (2005-10-31). Early editions of the album were accompanied by a six-track sampler CD for a planned album of children’s songs entitled Up the Wooden Hills.

“A Good Thing” is featured both in Pedro Almodóvar’s award-winning 2006 Spanish film Volver and in the Grey’s Anatomy episode titled “Tell Me Sweet Little Lies,” the fourteenth episode of season 2 in 2006.

Collaborations

1993’s non-album single “Who Do You Think You Are” is a cover of a song by Jigsaw. The song was also covered by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods and by Candlewick Green, a winning act on the UK talent show Opportunity Knocks. Saint Etienne recorded it as a duet with Debsey Wykes, former singer of Dolly Mixture.

In 1993, the band collaborated with Kylie Minogue for two songs: a cover of “Nothing Can Stop Us” (intended at the time to be her first single release for her new label) and “When Are You Coming Home” (unreleased).

Also in 1993, the Xmas 93 EP featured Tim Burgess from The Charlatans on the lead track “I Was Born on Christmas Day.”

In 1995, the band co-recorded the Reserection EP with French pop star Étienne Daho; later, they also worked on his album Eden and single “Le Premier Jour.”

For the band’s first greatest hits compilation, Too Young to Die (1995), Eurodance producer Steve Rodway reworked the track “Accident” from the Reserection EP, producing the renamed single “He’s on the Phone.” The single, co-credited to Daho, gained the singer additional exposure to English-speaking audiences.

Rodway’s co-producer Brian Higgins produced the band’s following single, “Burnt Out Car,” released in 1996.

In 2000, the band crossed genres by working with trance producer and DJ Paul van Dyk, resulting in the single “Tell Me Why (The Riddle),” with vocals by Cracknell.

The 2005 album Tales from Turnpike House features David Essex as a guest vocalist. Several tracks on the album were co-written and co-produced by Brian Higgins’ songwriting production team, Xenomania.

Sarah Cracknell has collaborated with Marc Almond on his single “I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten” for his album Stardom Road.

Films

The 1998 album The Misadventures of Saint Etienne is the soundtrack to the independent film The Misadventures of Margaret, starring Parker Posey. After the soundtrack was completed, the film’s producers opted to replace it with a more ‘conventional’ soundtrack, although a number of tracks can still be heard in the background of the film’s final version and Saint Etienne received top “Original Music” credit on the film. The band also recorded a duet by Cracknell and Posey titled ‘Secret Love’ for the soundtrack but due to legal entanglements it has never been released.

The band has also stepped out from behind their instruments and microphone stands to produce films, including two documenting the landscape of the city of London: Finisterre (2002) inspired by the 1967 short film The London Nobody Knows, and What Have You Done Today, Mervyn Day? (2005), which has a more specific focus on the dilapidation of the Lower Lea Valley. The band have produced a new film, This Is Tomorrow, in their new capacity as artists-in-residence at the newly refurbished Royal Festival Hall in London, telling the story of the Hall’s first 50 years. This Is Tomorrow premiered June 29, 2007 (2007-06-29) as part of the RFH’s opening season with the band performing the film’s soundtrack live.

Shoulder dystocia

September 7th, 2008

Shoulder dystocia
Classification and external resources
ICD-10 O66.0
ICD-9 660.4
DiseasesDB 12036

Shoulder dystocia is a specific case of dystocia whereby after the delivery of the head, the anterior shoulder of the infant cannot pass below the pubic symphysis, or requires significant manipulation to pass below the pubic symphysis. It is diagnosed when the shoulders fail to deliver shortly after the fetal head. In shoulder dystocia, it is the chin that presses against the walls of the perineum

Treatment

A number of obstetrical maneuvers are sequentially performed in attempt to facilitate delivery at this point, including :

  • Gaskin maneuver, named after Certified Professional Midwife, Ina May Gaskin, involves moving the mother to an all fours position with the back arched, widening the pelvic outlet.
  • McRobert’s maneuver;
  • suprapubic pressure (or Rubin I)
  • Rubin II or posterior pressure on the anterior shoulder, which would bring the fetus in an oblique position with head somewhat towards the vagina
  • Woods’ screw maneuver which leads to turning the anterior shoulder to the posterior and vice versa (somewhat the opposite of Rubin II maneuver)
  • Jacquemier’s maneuver (also called Barnum’s maneuver), or delivery of the posterior shoulder first, in which the forearm and hand are identified in the birth canal, and gently pulled.

More drastic maneuvers include

  • Zavanelli’s maneuver, which involves pushing the fetal head back in with performing a cesarean section. or internal cephalic replacement followed by Cesarean section
  • intentional clavicular fracture, which reduces the diameter of the shoulder girdle that requires to pass through the birth canal.
  • symphisiotomy, which makes the opening of the birth canal laxer by breaking the connective tissue between the two pubes bones facilitating the passage of the shoulders.
  • abdominal rescue, described by O’Shaughnessy, where a hysterotomy facilitates vaginal delivery of the impacted shoulder

Risk factors

Although the definition is imprecise, it occurs in approximately 1% of vaginal births. There are well-recognised risk factors, such as diabetes, fetal macrosomia, and maternal obesity, but it is often difficult to predict. Despite appropriate obstetric management, fetal injury (such as brachial plexus injury) or even fetal death can be a complication of this obstetric emergency.

Recurrence rates are relatively high and low most of the short time.

Content

Although various plot threads can be found in the book, its real value lies in the wealth of ideas on display. It’s primarily a guide to many of the important factions involved in the War in Heaven. These include Faction Paradox itself, the Great Houses, the Celestis, the Remote, and Posthumanity. A number of hints about the mysterious Enemy against whom the Great Houses at fighting are scattered through the text, but nothing conclusive. The book details many individuals, events, technologies, and concepts related to the War.

The book makes references to the Doctor Who novels Alien Bodies, Interference, The Taking of Planet 5, and The Shadows of Avalon, and it features the characters Compassion and Chris Cwej who first appeared in Doctor Who novels. A number of other parallels with Doctor Who characters and concepts can be found, but these links are not explicit. No familiarity with Doctor Who is required to appreciate The Book of the War.

Characters and settings from The Book of the War appear in the later Faction Paradox novels Of the City of the Saved…, Warring States and Newtons Sleep.

The otherwise unrelated novel Dictionary of the Khazars is a rare example of similar use of a non-linear encyclopedic structure for a work of fiction.
