He really is. He even had a bit part in Heros. I think he had an invisibility power. I know him best for Dr Who though. That link explained more about the Dr Who issues of maybe why he didn't' do more than one season. Looking at his career; it backs up his not wanting to be type cast.

A random conversation that MrsWx and I had yesterday after a friend of ours had a baby at 3AM on Sunday. The rule is you go home on day two after giving birth with the birthday being day 0. So they will go home tomorrow while we came home with our baby on Monday after giving birth at 11PM on a Saturday night. So the question is what is really driving that second "night"?

One of my profs sent me a job link she received this morning from a Catholic school in Canada.
They're looking for someone who writes about children and social movements/organizations.
That's, like, an actual option.

I've always that it just depends upon the date and that, basically, your first day in the hospital is free so there really isn't any fiscal incentive to leave early on that second day. Basically, if you'd have had your baby one hour later, you could have stayed in the hospital an extra 24 hours.
And you'd have a way cool national anthem.

Maybe Melvin would come by as a guest lecturer.
Agree other than the fact that it was a baby girl this time.
Our thought was more of how much do you really need that extra day. Especially considering it takes at least a few hours for all the paperwork and what not to get done when they do decide to discharge you.
I really wish the S and the D weren't next to each other on a keyboard.

I miss the last few weeks when the Hawk trolls were laying low.

I always thought it was for just a bit of extra observation of mom and baby. Or teaching baby to latch.
Breastfeeding is part of it. Studies show that there is a significant increase in the the need to re-hospitalize infants for neonatal jaundice and other health issues if they are released less than 48 hours after birth.
Working on a disaster recovery test. I'm not sure who came up with this plan but it is sure stupid. I tried explaining how it wasn't going to work and got attitude back.
My second was born at around 1am. It was Sunday/Monday. Around 7.30am the construction crew resumed their work outside my window. With a pile driver. When the docs (my OB & the pediatrician) came through around 11am, I asked if we could go home, please, and they checked us both and gave me the thumbs up to take him home.
It wasn't a question of money. It was a question of maintaining my sanity!
I personally believe breastfeeding is very underrated with regard to babies' development. We breastfed all the girls, and based on the results, it was well worth it. Alana (the middle one) nursed until she was nearly a year old, and she scored 35 on her ACT. (She's a pediatrician in Seattle now.)
Which I would agree with and it is nice to have that time with the nurses right there to ask questions and make sure everything is okay. We were discharged at something like 30ish hours with this last one. Born less than an hour later and she would have been there another day which may have been nice.
Act fast before Canada gets smart and closes their borders to gun crazed Americans. The good news is your family will be 10 times less likely to get murdered by gunfire if you live in Canada.
