...suicide bombers--allowed a few thousand fighters to hold their own for decades against the Sri Lankan army's 50,000 soldiers. So the most recent army offensive uses a new strategy. The military clears people from every stretch of territory it captures. Those displaced must either seek shelter deeper in Tiger territory or surrender to government forces, which move them into camps. The result is a sort of scorched-earth policy that has helped the army capture and keep control of territory that the Tigers have held for more than a decade...
...course, the alternative to a VBAC isn't risk-free either. With each repeat cesarean, a mother's risk of heavy bleeding, infection and infertility, among other complications, goes up. Perhaps most alarming, repeat C-sections increase a woman's chances of developing life-threatening placental abnormalities that can cause hemorrhaging during childbirth. The rate of placenta accreta--in which the placenta attaches abnormally to the uterine wall--has increased thirtyfold in the past 30 years.

They failed to buy either of her memoirs, Jade: My Autobiography and Jade: Catch a Falling Star; they never dabbed her fragrance, Shh ... Jade Goody, behind their ears; they didn't perform physical jerks to any of her five fitness DVDs or try recipes from her cookbook; they even missed her many broadcast and print appearances. Yet enough of their compatriots did these things...
