The Proper Cornish 1,900lb (850kg) monster was so big it had to be transported by lorry to a special weigh bridge for verification.

The pasty - which would cost Pounds 7,000 - was hand-crafted as part of a competition for a TV food show.

Bodmin's Proper Cornish defeated Lostwithiel Bakery - run by a husband and wife in the town - in the 24-hour race which took place during regatta week.

Hungry spectators were rewarded with free pieces for making it up to the top of the town to potentially watch history in the making at the weigh-in.

Marlins continue to fail in cl

Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez may not be able to resist the temptation to move up Mike Stanton in the batting order.

Rodriguez has talked to his staff about batting the rookie fourth or fifth. And after watching No. 5 hitter Cody Ross make the final out of the inning four times -- three of those with runners on first and second -- in the Reds' 5-4 victory Saturday, Rodriguez may be ready to make the move sooner rather than later.

"Definitely," Rodriguez said when asked if he is thinking harder about making the switch. "Mike Stanton leading off four times, that shouldn't happen. Every time he was leading off, I was wondering in my head ..."

Still, the Marlins had a chance despite Ross stranding six runners and the team going 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position.

Reds closer Francisco Cordero loaded the bases with no outs on two walks and a single in the ninth inning but needed just two pitches to end the game.

Gaby Sanchez swung at the first pitch, grounding the ball to third baseman Scott Rolen, who gave up the run for the double play.

"If he gave me a ball to hit, I was going to go after it," Sanchez said. "He gave me a great pitch, and I just missed it."

Then, with the tying run on third base, Dan Uggla popped up the first pitch he saw, which was caught in front of the Reds' dugout by first baseman Joey Votto to end the game.

"You have to be aggressive in those situations," Uggla said. "It just so happened me and Gaby just missed those pitches."

The Marlins received another short outing from starter Sean West (0-2) and couldn't quite recover after the Reds took a 3-0 lead in the fourth inning.

Uggla's 27th home run of the season in the fifth, with Logan Morrison on first, and Wes Helms' fourth of the year in the next inning accounted for all the Marlins' scoring before the run in the ninth.

Otherwise, the Marlins could not come up with the clutch hit to avoid falling below .500 (57-58) again. The Marlins are hitless in 18 at-bats with runners in scoring position in the first two games of the series.

"We have to find a way to get those runs in," Rodriguez said.

Florida had a chance to catch the Reds in the seventh with runners on first and second and no outs and trailing 4-3. But Hanley Ramirez, who doubled to lead off the inning, made a base- running blunder by being caught off second base for a double play on a soft line drive to second base hit by Sanchez.

After Uggla walked, Ross came to the plate for the third time with wholesale import handbags runners on first and second and two outs. He hit a hard liner to center field that was caught.

Stanton, who has been batting sixth for the past two weeks, was 1- for-4. He is 12-for-20 in the first five games of the road trip.

West's second start of the season was much like his first. He was removed with one out in the fifth after Scott Rolen's single gave the Reds a 4-2 lead. West has allowed 15 hits and eight earned runs in 9 1

Marshall University midwifery

Marshall University's nurse midwifery master's program is off to a slow start.

The School of Nursing opened the 44 credit hour certified midwife program to students last year, but has yet to have anyone sign up.

The first five years of any new track are usually slow, said Madonna Combs, professor emeritus and former director of Marshall's graduate nursing program.

The master's program is the only one in the state. It operates through a collaboration with Shenandoah University in Winchester, Va.

Students are supposed to complete about 25 credit hours at Marshall's Huntington campus. They would also travel to Shenandoah University for one week at the beginning of the each semester to take all midwifery classes, in conjunction with online courses.

"The interest is there, but for a person starting out, it is a big commitment," Combs said. "It's expensive, it's hard, and there are many hoops to get through. I think that is why we do not have a lot, or any, students at this point."

Nurse-midwives are trained to provide care to women during pregnancy, labor and delivery, and the postpartum period.

The midwife practice focuses on preventive care and casio watch compass the overall health, diet, exercise practices, and emotional state of the mother, said Angy Nixon, a certified nurse-midwife who practices out of Putnam County. They track the health of the mother and child, and families usually get more face time than with a physician.

Many nurse-midwives work in conjunction with OB/GYNs.

"The practice of midwifery is strong in West Virginia," Combs said, "but the numbers have gotten smaller over the years, particularly because of the OB/GYN shortage."

From 2007 to 2009, about 64 midwives were registered with the state Board of Registered Professional Nurses.

About seven practice in Berkeley County; eight in Kanawha County; nine in Monongalia County; and five in Putnam County, according to an annual report from the board. Twelve to 15 practice in other states.

About 162 OB/GYNs are licensed in West Virginia and list their primary offices in the state, according to data from the state Board of Medicine.

"It's hard to recruit midwives or any health care professional to West Virginia, so having a local program for students to go and train as a nurse-midwife benefits the state because [those students] will most likely return to their community and stay in that community," Nixon said.

State and federal funding is available students interested in the Marshall program, which could help keep healthcare professionals wholesale handbags for sale in West Virginia, Combs said.

More than 90 percent of certified midwives work out of hospitals, community health centers and physician offices, Nixon said. She is unique in that she works independently and focuses more on home birth and care.

"Over the last 75 years, home birth has become less and less common and it's at about half a percent in West Virginia," Nixon said.

Natural births have also fallen out of popularity, and about 35 percent of West Virginian mothers deliver their baby by Caesarian section. That's the fifth highest rate in the nation.

Report suggests Facebook frenz

SAN JOSE, Calif. - "Time suck" is a phrase often used to describe online social networks like Facebook and online games like FarmVille. Now new research quantifies the phenomenon, showing that nearly one-third of the time Americans spend online is devoted to such activities, while time spent on conventional e-mail and portals such as Yahoo has declined.

The report by Nielsen Online, entitled "What Americans Do Online" and released recently, describes changing Internet use during a period of intensifying competition in an industry centered in Silicon Valley.

While Google's leading search technology has proved a powerful advertising vehicle and Yahoo leads in banner ads, Facebook's dominance in the growing social networking sector is recognized as a major competitive threat to both of those companies.

Strikingly, Nielsen's research also showed that Americans now spend more time playing games than handling e-mail - in part because tens of millions are staying in touch on Facebook rather than communicating on services such as Yahoo Mail or Google's Gmail.

"That's the logical conclusion," said David Martin, a Nielsen analyst. "A platform like Facebook incorporates e-mail and instant messaging. Social networks have incorporated those basic functions in a much larger system of communication, content management and even gaming. The growth has come at the expense of traditional portals, e-mail platforms and IM."

American Internet users on average are spending more than six hours per month on social networking sites and more than four hours per month playing online games, the research found. In addition to those activities, users on average spent another 14 hours per month online at news, entertainment and other sites.

Silicon Valley companies topped every sector encompassed by Nielsen's research. Yahoo ranked as the No. 1 portal, ahead of MSN and Google, as well as the leading provider of e-mail and instant messaging services. Google led the search category by a wide margin, and its YouTube division led the video/movie sector. Electronic Arts topped a highly competitive game sector, Apple's iTunes dominated the "multi-category entertainment" area, and eBay edged out Craigslist in the "auctions-classifieds" category.

Nielsen's time research, which tracked 200,000 Internet users and compared June 2009 to June 2010, roughly coincides with a 12-month period in which Facebook doubled its global reach to 500 million users. It has been especially popular among younger Internet users. A recent study of Sexy Costumes U.S. Internet users by the Pew Research Center found that more than half of those between age 18 and 45 had a profile on a social networking site, compared to 30 percent of the "baby boomers" under 65 and 6 percent of the population older than 65.

Facebook's dominance in social networking is such that Nielsen found it accounts for nearly 85 percent of time spent in the sector, compared to 5.6 percent for runner-up Myspace, 1.1 percent for Twitter and 1.1 percent for Blogger.

Overall, the combination of social networks and online games are consuming 32.9 percent of Internet time, up from a combined 25.1 percent, Nielsen found.

The growth was driven by a 43 percent increase in time spent on social networking and 10 percent increase on games. Meanwhile, time spent on e-mail, portals and instant messaging showed marked declines.

Repeat was bro comical

WHEN I was a child, in a time so far off there weren't even four channels, let alone 504, my parents would complain about "bloody repeats".

None of which excuses BBC4's blushes over this week's repeat of a fluffy little thing called Brothers In Arms, a documentary about rock acts featuring brothers, from the Kinks to Bros and onwards.

Divorce pay-out helps fund new

GAINING funding for new business ventures has been notoriously difficult following the recession. But one Hull entrepreneur found an unusual solution.

Wholesale Handbags

Helen Scaife used the payout from her divorce settlement to set up a new sandwich shop, Tasty, in Humber Place on Hull's Marina.

It cost Helen about Pounds 12,000 to get her fledgling business off the ground and she did not have to borrow any money from banks.

Helen said: "My ex-husband had a takeaway and when we divorced I received a lump sum.

"But I didn't want to put him into difficulty trying to pay it or anything, so he had five years before he had to pay it.

"When I got the money, I wanted to do something with it rather than just waste it.

"I was a hairdresser, but when I was 16 I worked in a sandwich shop and I loved it." She found the premises in February, then spent four weeks redecorating the building and another three months searching eBay for a good price on all the necessary equipment.

Tasty opened its doors to the public 12 weeks ago and has already capitalised on the growing number of workers based in the Fruit Market area next to the marina.

Helen said: "The first week wasn't very good, but since then it has really been picking up.

"I get a lot of office workers in, people from the World Trade Centre and the other offices round here.

"There are also loads of people working on the redevelopment of the Fruit Market who are coming in."

The deal on the Humber Place property was overseen by Paul White, surveyor at Garness Jones.

Mr White told Helen that the property was a "gold mine".

Helen said: "I looked at the property and it looked nice and I knew there was nothing else similar around here.
