Hear the stories of Jason and Stosh, both born with a single ventricle heart defect, while learning about the advances in heart care that have made it possible to diagnose heart defects prior to a baby's birth. These advances give children born with single ventricle heart defects a more optimistic outlook.
Narrator: Jason is 12 years old. Like many boys his age, he's preoccupied with grades and sports and music. But unlike most kids, Jason has lived his entire life with a congenital heart condition known as a single ventricle defect. Thirty years ago, single ventricle defects were almost universally fatal. Babies died within days of birth. Twelve years ago when Jason was born, care had advanced to the point that many children would survive the three open-heart surgeries required to treat the condition. But whether and how they would grow up was still a question. Stosh is 6 months old. He too was born with a single ventricle defect. As his parents take joy in watching his first year milestones — sitting, standing, speaking his first words — they can also expect that Stosh will have a much more optimistic outlook. This is the story of two boys, one program and years of medical progress. It is a story of discovery, dedication and hope.
Jack Rychik, MD: A single ventricle type of congenital heart defect is one in which, in essence, there is only one functioning pumping chamber from the lower parts of the heart.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: And you and me and most of the people we see on the street, we have two pumping chambers. One of them is responsible for pumping the blood to our bodies, and the other to our lungs.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: So the right side of the heart that pumps blood over to the lungs is essentially blood that your body has already used that comes back to the heart as blue blood. Once it goes and circulates through the lungs, it gets oxygenated. We refer to that as red blood or oxygenated blood. And that's what comes back to the left side of the heart that then pumps it out for your body to use again.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: And when a valve inside the heart doesn't form or a pumping chamber doesn't form, that is what is considered to be a single ventricle abnormality. So by the time of birth, the baby really only has one functional pumping chamber to pump blood to the body or to the lungs.
Jack Rychik, MD: It's not a single anatomic lesion. It includes a constellation of a variety of very, very different types of anomalies, all of which essentially share the common finding of only a single functioning pumping chamber.
Narrator: A generation ago, the future for children with single ventricle defects was uncharted territory. Today, doctors can give families a roadmap of what to expect from before birth to adulthood. It doesn't mean everything will go smoothly, but it does mean the medical team and the family are better informed and better prepared to deal with whatever comes along.
Jack Rychik, MD: There was a period of time in the 1970s and 1980s where in fact there was no hope whatsoever for these children, with the vast majority not surviving beyond perhaps even the first few days of life.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: In the early part of our experience with single ventricle heart defects, survival was our main goal.
Jack Rychik, MD: Today, our focus is a different one. It's to not just create survival, which in essence is expected in the vast majority of cases, but to create a sustainable quality of life and to create a normal duration of life.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: There's more focus on trying to prevent problems and trying to anticipate them.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: To be able to give families a roadmap so that they can have at least an idea of what to expect over time.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: Overall, our expectation is that these kids will not only survive, but survive with a good quality of life.
Narrator: Part of the ability to better treat single ventricle defects is simply knowing about them earlier. Jason's condition was not discovered until after he was born and had gone home from the hospital.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): When the visiting nurse came, she said, "You need to call 911 right away." And that's when I panicked. So the ambulance came, they took Jason. And you feel — I just felt so sad and I felt so overwhelmed, like — and so helpless. Like here is my firstborn, my beautiful baby boy, we got him out of the hospital, and now they're telling me that he's having these major, major heart problems.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: Before fetal ultrasound was something that was fairly routine, it was not uncommon at all for babies to come in deathly ill, very acidotic, very poor blood flow to their body, with damage to their kidneys, damage to their liver, damage to their brains very often, damage to their lungs and all their organs, because we did not know that they had this problem and it was unanticipated. And when one starts with that as the starting point for trying to go into a very complex series of operations, it's not surprising that the outcomes are not nearly as good.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): I think it was 10 days before they were able to operate on him. So to stabilize him for these 10 days, to make sure that no major organ damage had occurred to him. All this could have been avoided had we known ahead of time.
Narrator: Stosh's mother, Katrina, learned her baby had a single ventricle defect just 16 weeks into her pregnancy.
Jack Rychik, MD: Care for our patient with single ventricle type of heart disease begins at the moment of diagnosis. And today that's as a fetus. And the care strategy starts exactly at that point in time, as early as 16 or 18 or 20 weeks' gestation.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): They start prepping you from the minute you walk in the door, your first appointment. They kind of lay it all out, the plan. But they keep you in the moment, which is really helpful. They don't let you get too far ahead of yourself. So you know it's coming, but emotionally you stay connected to the spot that you're in with your child, and that helps.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: The imaging quality is just amazing, especially when you think about the fact that the heart is constantly beating and it's constantly moving. Some of these hearts, they're as small as a hummingbird it seems like. That people can capture not only the delicate anatomy of the heart, but also be able to give us valuable information about the physiology is something that's very helpful to us.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): And they would go through it every week. And if there were any changes, they would talk about the changes that had happened and how they would deal with that. And as scary as it was, at least we were mentally ready for when it happened.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: At the time of birth when there still will be some stress, it will be a different degree than what it would've otherwise been. They'll be more prepared and more educated about what's going to be happening to the baby after birth.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): For the parents of a child that is going to have that surgery, if they know about it before the child is born, again, the situation would be completely different.
Narrator: Today at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, there is a special place for babies like Stosh to be born. This is the Garbose Family Special Delivery Unit, the world's first birth facility created exclusively for pregnancies complicated by birth defects. Almost half the 400 babies born here each year have congenital heart disease.
Jack Rychik, MD: Not only can these families obtain accurate diagnosis and appropriate counseling and management before birth, but we can facilitate their delivery at the very same site where they're going to be getting their care after birth.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: So the parents are surrounded by this whole host of caregivers who are looking after their baby from the moment the baby is born.
8:21. There he is. Yay!
Do this, do this. There you go. Look at you.
Jack Rychik, MD: And this is a rarity, to have a delivery unit on-site at a children's hospital where you can begin to mix and marry the best of care for the neonate and for the mother.
Narrator: Not every baby needs immediate medical intervention, but for those who do, the team is ready. Stosh receives a breathing tube and then goes for a visit with mom.
Can we come in? Here we come.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: One of the biggest advantages of our special delivery unit is that it provides a high degree of stability for the infant after birth, but it also allows the family to be in a much more stable situation.
Narrator: From the Special Delivery Unit, the newborn is taken to the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit just steps away from his mother's room. The CICU at CHOP is among the largest and most sophisticated in the world.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): It's so nice to know that I could deliver, you know, I could be in the same hospital, he would be right down the hall, we could go visit him within hours, you know. As much as we wanted, we were able to come and go to see him. And that was — yeah, it was really, really nice.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: Care in the ICU is the big thing that's really evolved over the last 10 years in terms of managing these patients.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: It's staffed by intensive care doctors. It's staffed by cardiologists. We have surgeons coming through, anesthesia, an extraordinary nursing staff.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): The fact that we lived here for a good 17 days, we got to meet a lot of the nurses.
Kathryn M. Dodds, RN, MSN, CRNP: To be an Intensive Care Unit nurse who's taking care of post- operative cardiac patients requires a special level of expertise.
Jack Rychik, MD: They are the glue that holds the family together at times. They play a role in education. They can make, with some families, a much closer connection and offer a rounding out of care to our patients.
Kathryn M. Dodds, RN, MSN, CRNP: There is the clinical care of the infant and the child in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit, and then there is the developmental care of that infant and child in your Intensive Care Unit as well. The importance of lighting and noise, the importance of skin-to-skin contact, the importance of realizing that positioning might make an impact on this baby in the future.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: It is a great thing to be able to walk through the ICU and see babies who are doing all the normal baby things that you would expect, and yet are going to open-heart surgery in a very short period of time.
And that's because their prenatal diagnosis allows them to be managed without getting sick like in the old days when diagnoses were made after birth.
Narrator: Care in the CICU extends to the entire family.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: It's very nice to see normal family bonding, whether it be a mother having the ability to breastfeed at her baby's side or whether it's siblings coming in to visit in the ICU. And that really helps to try and preserve as much of a normal experience for them that you possibly can during this very stressful and very difficult time for families.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: An example of that is our patient-centered rounds, our family-centered rounds, where the family is there, is present with the nursing staff, with the physicians, with the entire team, and they will join us on rounds. They'll have a discussion about what's going on and have a discussion on what the plans are going forward.
Jack Rychik, MD: If necessary, social work services are available. There's child life available for other members of the family, other children who are obviously going to be curious about what the baby's going to be all about and what stresses there might occur thereafter.
Narrator: Surgery for single ventricle defects is among the most complex of cardiac procedures performed on the smallest of hearts. The first of three planned operations occurs within the first few days of life.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: Children with single ventricle, by definition, only have one pump, and of course we have to use that pump to pump the blood to the body. So the question is, how do we get blood flow to the lungs?
Jack Rychik, MD: Their circulation mimics normal, but is still not a normal one. The blue blood makes its way to the lung and the pink blood makes its way to the body, but in a very different way than what one would expect if you had two pumping chambers.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: So what we try to do is basically take what we have and make it work. The Fontan circulation is basically taking the blood supply that's returning to the heart as blue blood and putting it into what we call a cavopulmonary connection, which is that blood averts the heart completely and instead the blood flows directly into the pulmonary arteries and into the lungs. It's not an operation we can do all at once. It's a three-stage process that usually starts with the first operation around the time of birth, the second operation around 4 to 6 months of age, and the third operation usually around 2 years of age.
Jack Rychik, MD: And we now know that that allows for survival and a relatively good quality of life.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: It is an amazing place, the cardiac operating room, and it's all about teamwork.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: They're all working with the goal of taking care of this little, tiny heart that's on the operating table. And I always find it such a privilege to be able to see the heart moving, to see the surgeons doing such delicate work in a very, very small field.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: It's vitally important that you have an anesthesia team that really understands their physiology and can care for them as they undergo multiple procedures.
James M. Steven, MD: It's worked best for us to have a small, cohesive team that are very focused on this subspecialty. And there's a lot to-- there's a lot to learn, there's a lot to master, and it's constantly evolving over time.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: Not only do the anesthesiologists bring the usual technical abilities to the table, they also have this unique understanding of cardiac anatomy and physiology.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: And that's so important to having successful outcomes with their procedures. And they are a very integral part of our team.
Narrator: In the period between the first and second stage operations, babies continue to be at risk for complications, even death. When Jason had his surgeries, his family could only watch and wait. Not so for Stosh.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: Over the last several years, there's been an effort across the centers that look after these children to try to make a difference and try to prevent that sort of problem.
Jack Rychik, MD: We're part of a national collaborative effort to begin to tease out the variables that may influence outcomes in the very first few months of life. Our Infant Single Ventricle Monitoring Program has been established in order to perform regular assessments and collect data of these patients to share it with other centers so that we can look at what factors influence how these patients are going to do in their very first early days of life.
Kathryn M. Dodds, RN, MSN, CRNP: Families are discharged with a scale so that they can weigh their baby at home. They're discharged with a pulse ox so that they can measure their baby's oxygen saturation at home. And then they are seen by their pediatrician and by their cardiologist weekly, alternating, so that every week you're being seen by a physician, either the pediatrician or the cardiologist.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): And you have the nurse practitioner that calls you weekly, keeping tabs on, you know, his weight, his pulse ox, his oxygen levels, as well as follows you to each of your appointments. And she's the go-to person with everything. So you have that contact person and it's so helpful. It's so reassuring to have her.
Narrator: When Jason was born, a successful outcome for a child with single ventricle was surviving surgery. As he grew from infancy into childhood and adolescence, the focus of his care was understandably his heart. But today, just surviving is not enough. The focus is now quality of life over many years. After decades of treating these patients, doctors have found that children with congenital heart disease are likely to face other long-term challenges, apart from the health of their hearts.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: We have the good fortune of having these children now survive their surgeries and often a series of three or more surgeries. But now we're finding out new problems as they go into teenage and adult years.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: As our children have grown up and gone to school, we've been learning that they're more prone to school problems.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: Children with complex congenital heart defects are at higher risk for having problems with ADHD, learning problems, behavioral issues, and certain specific issues with their language and writing as they progress through the school systems.
Jack Rychik, MD: We want to improve their quality of life and begin to address the specific challenges that relate to being a survivor of single ventricle. That's where programs such as the NeuroCardiac Care Program and the Single Ventricle Survivorship Program come into play.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: The NeuroCardiac Clinic was really established to help follow these patients not only anticipate what their needs are, but also establish a type of intervention very early for patients. It's a very multidisciplinary clinic that comprises of the cardiologists and neurologists, people from physical therapy, occupational therapy, often speech therapy, many social services are combined. And really the effort is to have the parents come into one place where they can get a group assessment on how their child is doing throughout various stages of their development.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): To pick up on that at each developmental milestone is great, because you don't know going into this. You know, it's a different experience, different care, different problems. And it's great to have that from the beginning and going forward.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: The clinical research that's been done at CHOP and at other institutions about neurodevelopmental outcomes in children with congenital heart disease has been very important. And we're proud to say that we were in the forefront of starting clinical programs to address some of these developmental issues at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia based upon the outcomes of this research.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: We feel it's really our responsibility to continue to find new ways to anticipate problems that could develop, and when problems do develop, to find new ways to treat those problems. Here at CHOP, we've actually set up a Single Ventricle Survivorship Program, which focuses clinical efforts, and even a major part of our research focus is in this area as well.
Jack Rychik, MD: It has two aspects to it. One is to begin to manage and care for some of the challenges that we are seeing our children face as they get into their school age, teenage and adult years.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: There are endocrinologic issues that may show up, sometimes gastrointestinal issues that show up. So it really does require building teams that can manage these problems at every stage throughout these patients' lives.
Jack Rychik, MD: The second role of the Single Ventricle Survivorship Program is in fact to function as a program that can clinically screen patients who have made it through surgical reconstruction. Because we don't yet fully understand the extent of some of the challenges that these children are going to face, we think it's now important to try and head off some of the unexpected and some of the unknowns and begin to test and look at different organ systems after the Fontan operation.
Narrator: Stosh will be followed in CHOP's programs well into his school years.
Narrator: Despite extraordinary advances in care and steadily improving outcomes, some patients with a single ventricle will eventually experience heart failure and require transplantation.
specifically on dealing with heart muscle problems and working on medications and trying to optimize medications to avoid heart transplant. However, sometimes despite all of our efforts, there is a subset of patients who finally reach a point where the only option really is cardiac transplantation. And that is a very good option for these families and for these patients.
Narrator: As patients await transplantation, some like 2-year-old Myzay will need the Cardiac Center's expertise with assist devices to help the heart continue pumping.
Jack Rychik, MD: A heart transplant is the commencement of a new journey. It's a way to transition from care in which management has been focused on single ventricle and all the circulatory limitations of that to a potential new life.
Narrator: Thanks to advances made in the ྌs and ྖs, Jason is one of the steadily growing number of patients with complex congenital heart disease who will need to transition from pediatric to adult care providers. These patients are literally pioneers, some of the first to reach adulthood living with single ventricle defects.
Jack Rychik, MD: More human beings with congenital heart disease that are over the age of 18 than those that are under the age of 18. And that's not because there are less babies being born with heart disease. It's simply that by virtue of our success, we've created a huge and growing population of patients, adults, who are survivors of the rigors of surgery for congenital heart disease.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: Adult congenital heart disease has now become a specialty in and of itself.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: Your endocrinologist who's an adult doctor can take care of diabetes just as well as a pediatric endocrinologist. Your adult pulmonologist can take care of asthma as well as a pediatric pulmonologist. But adult cardiologists are not trained at all in congenital heart disease, and it's a completely different world to them.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: We have really partnered with the University of Pennsylvania in building a program that allows patients with adult congenital heart disease to either be managed here at CHOP, depending on their age and their heart lesion and whether they have other problems outside of their heart, or to be managed at the adult hospital.
David Drajpuch, RN, MSN, CRNP: Our specialty is looking at people who are born with heart defects, who are born with congenital heart disease and who've been put back together, who have things like conduits and reconnections of the heart to blood vessels. And certainly we have patients who are struggling and whose repairs have had unintended sequelae. And when they reach their second, third, fourth, even fifth decade at this point, they're running into problems where the heart isn't pumping as strong as it should, and they need the help of our team.
Chitra Ravishankar, MD: These children as they grow older, they are likely to require other specialists such as a liver specialist, and a bone specialist, an endocrinologist.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: It's best for all those specialists ideally to be in one location and that type of coordinated care is really only available in a few locations throughout the country.
Jack Rychik, MD: That's where the field of adult congenital heart disease comes into play and is an integral part of the seamless continuum of care that we offer — from our Fetal Heart Program to the NeuroCardiac Care Program to our Single Ventricle Survivorship Program and onto adult care.
Narrator: The care of children with single ventricle defects requires many disciplines working together and facilities designed to support an interdisciplinary approach.
Jack Rychik, MD: The uniqueness of the Cardiac Center of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is that we have a expert service that's available to the patient with complex heart disease at every phase of their life.
Kathryn M. Dodds, RN, MSN, CRNP: The Cardiac Center has always been 10 steps ahead from a facility perspective.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: We have some of the most enviable facilities probably in the world. We have two operating rooms and two cath labs with a hybrid room that are exclusively for the Cardiac Center, an MRI, and a CT scanner. We have unlimited resources as far as technology with cardiac intervention and cardiac catheterization as well as with our electrophysiology suite.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: And it's one location where we bring together the cardiac operating rooms, the cardiac cath labs, and even the delivery unit. It's all together.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: And then our ICU is on the same floor as well as our step-down unit. So families can come in and get every service that they need, provided for them not only in the same hospital, but also on the same floor.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: It allows us to develop all sorts of innovative procedures. It allows us to minimize the amount of time that's necessary, minimize transport for these children.
Narrator: Excellent care also requires a partnership between the Cardiac Center and the cardiologists who provide ongoing primary cardiac care.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: For me, the collaboration with referring physicians is almost as important as the collaboration or the relationship I establish with the families. It takes an incredible amount of trust as a cardiologist, especially one that's been potentially following a child for several weeks or several months or even years, to be able to select a surgeon and trust them to operate on a child whose family you've known and whose family you have assured time after time that probably everything's going to be okay.
Jack Rychik, MD: We fully understand the very close and intimate relationship that does take place between a primary cardiologist and a survivor of single ventricle surgical rigors.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): They're always so willing to work with other doctors and take their advice or take their feedback. So I was really happy to have that nice relationship between the two doctors working together to make sure that Jason is getting the best.
Narrator: Challenging questions — Why congenital heart disease occurs? How it can best be treated or even prevented? What patients can expect throughout their lives? — continue to drive the CHOP professionals who care for these children.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: For so many years, people with heart disease were told, "You can't..." You can't lead a normal life. You can't go on and have a family. You can't go to college. You can't, you know, work full time. And instead we have patients who are not only doing what they were told they can't do, but they're doing everything they want to do.
Kathryn M. Dodds, RN, MSN, CRNP: We want the future to be as bright and as limitless as possible. And there may be some issues that we need to deal with, but we can't be afraid of them. We have to embrace them. And we have to answer those difficult questions.
Jonathan J. Rome, MD: The way that we make improvements is by continually learning from the patients we're caring for. Trying to take our knowledge and bring it back to our patients to see if we can continue to improve their outcomes.
Jack Rychik, MD: Those of us that are here at Children's Hospital have an obligation, because we have the knowledge that we have, to continue to expand that knowledge and to continue to offer hope to our children with single ventricle heart disease.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): The way the science is advancing, the way the research is advancing, we believe that there will be some things that 10 years ago we didn't think were possible.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: We're due for a major breakthrough. And maybe it's going to be in mechanical support of some kind that's more long-term support. Maybe it's going to be in stem cell therapy where we can actually build a new ventricle. Maybe it'll be in new medications that we can use. Maybe it'll be just in terms of how we reroute the circulation. I think the future is bright. There's a lot of work going into this, a lot of very smart people.
Stephanie Fuller, MD: Expert clinicians, amazing researchers, people who are thinking about what's coming next.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): A good team that does everything they can to find more, to know more, to give families hope for the future.
Robert E. Shaddy, MD: That's what really drives me and drives our group here.
Marie M. Gleason, MD: To see all the research that we've done actually implemented.
David Drajpuch, RN, MSN, CRNP: The fact that those very first repairs done at Children's Hospital are now into adulthood is phenomenal.
Katrina Frydlewicz (mother of Stosh): We're so happy to have him be a part of that, because as they keep collecting data they'll be able to help him and other children as they go forward from this. It's amazing and we're very happy to have him be a part of this program.
Fayrouz Azer (mother of Jason): We do believe that here at Children's Hospital you only get the best of the best. So I do have a lot of hope for the future.

Rietwijk of Rijk was een door de Haarlemmermeer verzwolgen dorp in Holland. Het lag tussen Haarlem en Sloten.

De oudste geschiedenis en het ontstaan van het dorp is niet met zekerheid bekend. De oorzaak hiervan is dat alle resten van het dorp al eeuwen geleden zijn weggespoeld en dat de schriftelijke bronnen incompleet en soms met elkaar in tegenspraak zijn. Waarschijnlijk is het dorp gesticht tussen de tiende en dertiende eeuw tijdens de grote ontginningsperiode van het veengebied ten oosten van Kennemerland. De Haarlemmermeer was zo'n duizend jaar geleden een klein veenmeertje dat zich in de loop der eeuwen steeds verder uitbreidde ten koste van het aangrenzende land.

Samen met Nieuwerkerk vormde Rietwijk een ambacht. Rietwijk was in de Middeleeuwen een welvarend dorp, maar ook dit is grotendeels verzwolgen door de 'Waterwolf' de Haarlemmermeer. Omstreeks 1600 was er van het vroegere dorp weinig meer over. In 1597 werd de kerkgemeenschap van Rietwijk of Rijk opgenomen in die van het dorp Sloten, waartoe de kort tevoren herbouwde Sloterkerk werd vergroot.

De ligging van de kerk van Rietwijk of Rijk was ongeveer ten zuidoosten van de huidige plaats Badhoevedorp. Het land van Rietwijk of Rijk strekte zich uit tot aan de Nieuwe Meer ten zuiden van Sloten. In 1636 kreeg de Rietwijkerpolder een eigen molen, de Riekermolen, die tot 1956 op zijn plaats bleef en toen verhuisde naar de Amsteldijk, bij de Kalfjeslaan. Dit is een van de laatste herinneringen aan het oude Rietwijk of Rijk.

Ook de Riekerpolder herinnert in naam nog aan het verdwenen dorp, maar bestond voor een groot deel uit de vroegere Bovenwegse Sloterpolder (ten zuiden van de Sloterweg). De zuidelijke begrenzing was en is de Nieuwe Meer. Een groot deel van deze polder is inmiddels bedekt met stedelijke bebouwing en met wegen en spoorlijnen. Ook is een deel in de jaren vijftig voor de zandwinning vergraven tot Riekerplas, opgenomen in de uitbreiding van de Nieuwe Meer.

Aan de zuidzijde hiervan lag Rietwijkeroord, dat tot Nieuwer-Amstel behoorde en na vervening in het begin van de 20e eeuw als droogmakerij vanaf de jaren dertig ingericht is met het Amsterdamse Bos.

Na inpoldering van de Haarlemmermeer werd in de 19e eeuw een nieuwe buurtschap Rijk gesticht aan de kruising van de Aalsmeerderweg en de Vijfhuizerweg. Ook dit dorp is weer verdwenen. In de jaren zestig werd het afgebroken om plaats te maken voor de bouw van het nieuwe complex en startbanen van de Luchthaven Schiphol. Op de plaats van Rijk ligt nu de Kaagbaan.

In de jaren negentig is de naam Rijk voor de derde keer verschenen, nu is er een bedrijventerrein Schiphol-Rijk, ten noordwesten van Aalsmeer.

In Amsterdam is Rijckerbrug (brug nr. 167) naar het dorp vernoemd.

One of the best things about being a music blogger is you often just have amazing music fall into your lap. That was the case with Port Huron quartet Mountain Babies. Their newest EP, Existence of Resistance, and was immediately hooked to their unique nu-folk sound.
Existence of Resistance starts off somberly with the EP's title track. The soft opening guitars will lull you into a sense of calm. Before you know it you've fallen under Mountain Babies' hypnotic spell. Dave Peters' ghostly vocals are both soothing and oddly haunting, reminding me a bit of Nick Cave. The track has a nice 70's psych rock vibe to it as it begins to build around the 2-minute mark. I fall more in love with this track with each listen.
Things pick up a bit on "Pine Cones & Grindstones." The track walks a line between rambling Johnny Cash and something you might hear from a modern act like Fleet Foxes. The opening vocals amble into lush guitars which float over a light beat that you'll be unable to resist bobbing your head along to. The music falls off into a chaotic jumble that feels a bit like an experimental jazz improvisation before settling back into the last chorus. "Pine Cones & Grindstones" would fit nicely on a soundtrack for a modern western.
Typically I'll notice any instrumental track that goes for more than a couple of minutes. This was not the case with the EP's fourth track "The Temple." I typically listen to what I'm reviewing while writing but I had to completely turn off this track because it just kept sucking me in. At just over 5 minutes long, it took me several listens before I realized how much time I had spent not writing. The opening riff saunters along until the deep strum of the bass line slides in. The track feels like the jam sessions of a group of musicians that work together like a well-oiled machine. Melodies tumble over one another coming together so perfectly that it's impossible not to get swept away.
While all four tracks on Existence of Resistance have a sense of experimentation to them, "Witches" is possibly the most ambitious. The sound bounces between light and dark feeling both familiar and like nothing I've ever heard before. The opening shimmering guitars are calming at first but the air of unease sets in more and more the longer they go on. The backing vocals to Peters' ethereal voice give the track a fitting feeling of an incantation woven to make you fall further under Mountain Babies' spell.
Existence of Resistance will pull you in from the first note. It's a strange yet enchanting journey into the world that Mountain Babies so perfectly creates throughout the EP's four track run. Like a good book, you'll want to keep going back to relive the story over and over again.
You can pick up Existence of Resistance on Bandcamp.


So you brush so diligently, how can you possibly have a Cavity?!!!
Thank you for your interest in our office. We hope that you will find the information within both usefull and interesting and we look forward to seeing you soon!


For most people both ears don't normally have the same exact degree of hearing loss. One ear is commonly a small amount worse than the other, triggering many to raise the question: Do I truly need a pair of hearing aids, or can I simply treat the ear with more significant loss of hearing?
In most cases, two hearing aids are going to be preferable to just one. But one hearing aid may be more appropriate in some less common scenarios.
Your ears effectively function as a pair whether you're aware of it or not. That means using two hearing aids has certain benefits over using one.
Being Able to Localize Correctly: In order to determine where sounds are coming from, your brain is not only working to interpret but also to place it. This is a lot easier when your brain is able to triangulate, and to do that, it needs solid inputs from both ears. It is a lot harder to figure out where sounds are coming from when you're only able to hear well out of one ear (which may be indispensable if you happen to live near a busy street, for instance).
Modern Hearing Aids Work Together: Modern hearing aid technology is created to work as a pair just like your ears are. The artificial intelligence and state-of-the-art features work well because the two hearing aids communicate with one another and, similar to your brain, determine which sounds to focus on and amplify.
Tuning in on Conversations: The whole point of using a hearing aid is to help your hearing. One of the things you want to hear is other people and the conversation going on near you. Because your brain has more sound input when wearing hearing aids, it is better capable of filtering out background noise letting it determine what sounds to focus on because they are closer.
Improved Ear Health: An unused sense will atrophy in the same way as an unused muscle will. If your ears go long periods without an input, your hearing can begin to go downhill. Get the organs of your ears the input they require to preserve your hearing by using two hearing aids. Using two hearing aids will also help decrease tinnitus (if you have it) and increase your ability to discern sounds.
Using a pair of hearing aids is usually a better choice. But that begs the question: If a person is using a hearing aid in only one ear, why?
Financial concerns: Some people feel that they can save money if they can wear just one hearing aid. Buying one hearing aid is better then not getting any at all if you can't really afford a pair. However, you should know that with time untreated hearing loss has been verified to raise your overall healthcare expenses. Even neglecting hearing loss for two years has been shown to increase your healthcare costs by 26 percent, and neglecting any hearing loss in one ear can elevate your chances of things like falling. So talk to your hearing professional to make certain only getting a single hearing aid is a smart idea for you. Finding ways to help make hearing aids more affordable is an additional service we offer.
Two hearing aids, however, will be better than one for your ears and hearing in most situations. There are simply too many advantages to having strong hearing in both ears to ignore. So, yes, in the majority of situations, two hearing aids are a better choice than one (just as two ears are better than one). Schedule an appointment with a hearing care pro to have your hearing examined.


With the fifth issue of Prisoners of Time, commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who, comes the Peter Davison Fifth Doctor Era, in which we find our as-of-yet unnamed nemesis continuing to kidnap the Time Lord's companions from multiple epochs of this Gallifreyan's incarnations. The story continues to ramp up in this issue, as more pieces of the bamboozle fall into place.
The Fifth Doctor, not long after his regeneration and before the heartrending confrontation with the Cybermen, arrives on an unknown desolate and dark planet to use a small crack in time (such as the one in Cardiff, Wales where the Torchwood base would be formed) to recharge the TARDIS. Along with companions Tegan, Adric, and Nyssa, they begin scouting the area only to find them under fire.
The Doctor has inadvertently landed them in the middle of a skirmish amid the Sontarans and the Rutans – one of many battles during their centuries-long war. From Rutan capture to the base of the Sontarans, the Doctor finds himself in a quandary – he knows he cannot bring this war to an end, but is there a way he can reduce the unnecessary loss of life? And while he finds himself torn between two warring factions, the unnamed kidnapper watches him from afar for the right moment to strike.
Classic Doctor Who villains, THE ICE WARRIORS, make a triumphant return in Cold War this week, as the 7th Series of modern Doctor Who continues. In the story written by Mark Gatiss and directed by Douglas Mackinnon, the Doctor (Matt Smith) and companion Clara Oswald (Jenna-Louise Coleman) take a wrong turn in the TARDIS on the way to Las Vegas, and end up materializing on a sinking Soviet Submarine at the height of Cold War tensions in 1983.
While the materialization would ordinarily be an immediate threat to the Russian sailors, our heroes arrive in the middle of a crisis, with equipment damaged on the boat causing it to sink. Professor Grisenko (David Warner), attached to the command of Captain Zhukov (Liam Cunningham) for scientific drilling in the Arctic, has discovered a surviving Ice Warrior, who begins waging bloody war with the occupants of the submarine.

Arkay_Beverages_-_Why_You_Should_Consider_Going_Alcohol_Free
According to MarketWatch, the alcohol-free movement is driven by individuals who "value high energy and productivity over just getting high."
Fort Lauderdale, FL , July 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fort Lauderdale, FL — If you haven't heard of the alcohol-free movement, it might not be what you'd expect. As consumers become more health-conscious, the global movement for zero-proof spirits is gaining momentum. One company, Arkay Beverages, has seen a 400% increase in sales.
What is the Alcohol-Free Movement?
Reynald Grattagliano, Founder and Vice President of Arkay Beverages, notes that the market was originally populated by people who couldn't drink because of religion, medical complications, or past addictions, but still wanted to appreciate the complex set of flavors and participate in social rituals surrounding alcohol. Now, however, the market is growing, as broader groups of people begin to see that a sophisticated adult beverage doesn't have to be an alcoholic one.
Is Moderate Drinking Actually Healthy?
Mainstream media touts the benefits of moderate drinking, supposedly including decreased risk of heart disease and diabetes, but it may not be as healthy as it seems. Firstly, although the resounding finding is that these risks are lower for moderate drinkers (as compared to non-drinkers and heavy drinkers), it's only a correlational finding. In other words, moderate drinking is one of a multitude of lifestyle factors that may contribute to lowered risks of certain health complications, but it's not necessarily because of the alcohol consumption itself. Secondly, many of the so-called benefits of moderate drinking are outweighed by the risks; for example, a study found that while moderate drinkers were less likely to die from cardiovascular complications, they were more likely to die of cancer.
Perhaps most importantly, because alcohol lowers inhibitions, it's difficult to be sure that you're sticking to the one-or-two drink limit that constitutes moderate drinking, especially with drink sizes and liquor proofs varying widely. Once the threshold between moderate and heavy drinking is crossed, any theoretical benefits are undone.
On the other hand, the benefits of not drinking are clear. A 2016 study found that, compared to a control group, those who abstained from drinking for just one month "showed significant improvements in insulin resistance, body weight, blood pressure and cancer-related growth factors."
Non-Alcoholic Spirits: An Alternative to Alcohol
If you're looking for an alternative to traditional alcohol, you're far from alone. "Today we're hearing customers ask for alcohol-free options everywhere and juices and sodas no longer cut it," commented local bartender Bill Georges. "Wanting an alcohol-free option doesn't mean they want a juice box, nor does it mean they have a problem with alcohol. It means they want something with all the flavor and complexity of a traditional alcoholic beverage and want to stay sober."
Since 2011, Arkay Beverages has been fine-tuning a variety of zero-proof spirit recipes, including vodka, tequila, gin, whisky, bourbon, and brandy amongst many others, for the appreciation of fine liquor without the alcohol.
The sustainable, female-owned company has seen a dramatic increase in sales, even amidst the economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 crisis. This pattern shows that more and more people are seeing the benefits of cutting out alcohol and giving it a try for themselves. Health is at the forefront of everyone's mind, and Arkay Beverages' products are not only completely alcohol-free, but they're also sugar, fat, and carbohydrate-free, and vegan-friendly, thus mitigating many of the additional health risks associated with cocktails and other alcoholic beverages.
Additionally, Arkay's online storefront has meant that people can enjoy alcohol-free beverages from the comfort of their own homes during lockdowns and social distancing measures, making the brand reliable even during the toughest times much of this generation has faced. To add to the endless list of benefits associated with Arkay's products, the company plans to launch 100% recyclable paper bottles.

Jack White As "The King" Elvis Presley
By raul on January 10, 2010 in Elvis, Jack White, The White Stripes
If you haven't seen the 2007 movie "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" you are missing a great cameo appearance by Jack White playing the role of "The King" Elvis Presley.
About his role in the movie White said,
"John C Reilly called me up and asked if I would do it. They were filming in a couple of days, I said, 'Okay, but what year is it supposed to be?' He said 1957, so that was Okay. I thought it was just going to be for cable or something but he said, 'Oh no, this is one of the biggest films this company is going to to put out this year.' He sent the script over and it was really funny."
White continued,
"It's my favorite era of Elvis, around '56, and when John sent me the script I laughed out loud the whole way through. It's a parody of musical biopics and John C.Reilly plays this made up character who goes through these different periods and at one point he plays on a bill with Elvis Presley. And that's me."

36 Children's Books About Diversity to Read to Your Kids
Robyn MorenoUpdated: Dec. 17, 2021
Fill your bookshelves with these entertaining children's books about diversity to educate your kids—and yourself—about equity and inclusion.
rd.com, via amazon.com (7)
Let's turn the page on discrimination and prejudice
The best children's books have always provided a powerful way for kids to put themselves in other people's lives—from the prairie of Laura Ingalls to the world of wizards in Harry Potter. It's in that spirit of fostering imagination, equity, inclusion, and kindness, that we curated our list of children's books about diversity. Because having a diverse bookshelf matters.
But unless you make it a point to seek out multicultural children's books, chances are you don't have them. A recent count by Cooperative Children's Book Center School of Education at the University of Wisconsin–Madison found that "books about white children, talking bears, trucks, monsters, potatoes, etc. represent nearly three-quarters of children's and young adult books published in 2019." In other words, vegetables, animals, monsters, and aliens had more visibility in books than brown or black characters.
If you believe that "you can't be what you can't see," then you'll agree it's paramount for all kids to see diverse characters and storylines in books to help them learn, understand, connect, and feel at home in the world. To that end, we created this comprehensive list by asking our book editors for recommendations, poring over "Best Of" lists and starred reviews, and reading dozens upon dozens of books to our kids to get their input. Scroll on to check out our list, and while you are compiling your library, be sure and check out the best nonfiction children's books along with these books about racism, LGBTQ books, and books by Black and Latinx authors.

Q: render_component alternative in routes.rb i have put:
map.connect '/:alias', :controller => 'cores'  ,:action=>"view"

this alias is connect with 3 models: event place and artist
in my cores controller i used render_component for rendering the action relative to the model.
if(core = Core.find(:first, :conditions => ["alias = ?", params[:alias]]))
        type = core.class.to_s.downcase
        render_component(:controller => type,
                         :action => "view",
                         :id => core.id.to_s,
                         :params => params)
end

In rails 2.3 render_component is deprecated. But what's the solution for do this?
I've seen that there is a plugin for reuse the render_component but i want know the other solution.
thanks.

A: The only solution is to redesign your architecture in order to avoid components.
I have to maintain an application based on components and I have to say this is a real nightmare. I recently upgraded the app to Rails 2.3 and I'm really looking forward to kill the component integration as soon as possible.
If you decide to go ahead with components, keep in mind the existing plugin doesn't work with Rails 2.3. You should make some changes in order to get it working.

A: There is another partial solution.
I'm looking after a Rails app in "hospice" mode, so whilst the right answer is definitely to redesign to avoid components, I needed to support render_component, while at the same time upgrading to Rails 2.3.
A temporary solution is to install the render_component plugin:
script/plugin install git://github.com/lackac/render_component.git -r rails-edge

You must have the git client installed on your server for this install to work; if not you'll get a silent failure.

Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Prince Chibudom Nwuche, who was the Acting Deputy National Chairman of the recently dissolved National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has berated the Abubakar Kawu Baraje-led PDP for disrespecting President Goodluck Jonathan and Nigerians.
He was reacting to the crises rocking the ruling party just as he dismissed the notion that the PDP is factionalized because according to him, the action of the G-7 governors, who staged a walk out on the PDP special national convention in August, is inconsequential.
"In a family as big as ours, if certain persons walk out, even though they may be governors, to me, it doesn't affect the family because it's a big family. PDP is a party that has come to stay.
"I want to also caution that those who don't respect the president are showing disdain for Nigerians. You cannot have the president of a country seated in a convention and you walk out. That was a bad behaviour and Nigerians must tell them off.
He reminded the aggrieved governors that the office of the president is an office they hope to occupy one day and should show respect for it.
"How will the governors feel if the local government chairmen walked out on them at a ceremony in their states? They will not like it", he added.
While expressing optimism that issues raised by the Baraje-led PDP will be addressed and the interested parties will abide by whatever agreements reached, Mr. Nwuche noted that under normal circumstances, the attempt by the group to split the party would have ordinarily earned them a suspension or expulsion as the case maybe.
"But in this case, our elders have intervened in the crisis and they have agreed that everybody should sheathe their swords", he stated.
On the clamour for power to return to the North, the former deputy speaker blamed the political structure in the country which emphasizes power rotation rather than quality of governance. This, he said, is a hindrance to the country's progress.
According to him, "Our structure is faulty and must be addressed. It is a hindrance to our progress. That is what we should look at and not the issue of where power goes.
On the recent forceful closure of the secretariat of 'New PDP' in Rivers State by the police, Mr. Nwuche said the law enforcement agency must be commended for doing what he termed a 'marvellous job' of protecting lives and property.
Still on the closure, he stated "If you are 24 Governors in a party with other stakeholders that are over 20 million, and you say some of you have left, you can't appropriate the name of the party and put up a flag. That is anarchy.
The former federal legislator, who is from Rivers State, also shed more light on the primary cause of the political crises in the state and the solution.
He added that no matter how popular Governor Rotimi Amaechi thinks he is, he cannot be in every local government at a time.
