Since its opening on Nov. 24, 1999, the childbirth unit at the Queensway Carleton Hospital has delivered more than 60,000 babies. It was a special occasion at the hospital this week, celebrating 25 years of operation. Melissa Mundee was there, celebrating her 25th birthday. She was the first baby born inside the unit. She brought her daughter, Maciee, who was also delivered at the QCH in 2023. "When my mom first originally told me about that story, it was kind of like, no. And then it kind of felt surreal when I showed up here with Maciee, and it was kind of like a full circle moment, to have my mom, now me. And now we get to celebrate with little Maciee," said Mundee. Staff wished her a happy birthday along with the unit. Some of the staff present have been there since the birthing unit opened. Salli Dambrowitz is the clinical manager of the childbirth program at QCH, and she recalls the first day quite well. "It was quite, quite fun; it was exciting. Everything was new. And so here I am, 25 years later, still here." Dambrowitz said. "We've received lots of patient feedback. They're so happy to have come here. You know, they always have nice things to say about our program," she added. "I think it's fantastic to know that someone who was delivered here once upon a time, 25 years ago, would want to come back here and experience that for her own child and any future children she has," said Shannon Adams, manager of the postpartum unit. The unit is special to many of the staff and they say it's like a family. Some have even had their own children and grandchildren delivered at the hospital. "I've had six of my seven grandchildren born here, and it's been very special. A lot of those children, I have been involved in their delivery process, their care after they've had their baby," said Tracy Zoobkoff, a nurse in the postpartum unit. "It's quite special to go to any events in our local community because everybody will come up to me and say, you were my nurse." "They're happy to have their babies here close, you know, tight-knit team, family, friends. it's, really enjoyable. I, myself, had had my kids here, too, and I wouldn't want to have it any other way," Dambrowitz said. Some of those children are now working at the hospital. "We've made such an impression on some of our babies from years ago that a lot of them want to be nurses. They're going to nursing school. They want to come and join our team. So, we're happy to have them," said Dambrowitz. Mundee said she's kept in touch with the unit since giving birth to Maciee, and is looking forward to being back in July for the birth of her second child.

Stay ConnectedEL SEGUNDO — Running back J.K. Dobbins suffered a sprained knee during the Chargers’ loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night and is likely to be sidelined for Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons. Coach Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday he “didn’t really know how to categorize” the injury, however. “He’s working through something with his knee,” Harbaugh added. The NFL Network, citing an unnamed source, said Dobbins would be out this week. Dobbins gained 40 yards on six carries before he was sidelined in the second quarter of the Chargers’ 30-23 loss on Monday. The Chargers turned to Gus Edwards and Hassan Haskins in Dobbins’ absence in the second half, but relied almost exclusively on their passing game after trailing 14-13 at halftime. The Chargers (7-4) rushed only five times in the second half. Overall, Edwards had nine carries for 11 yards and one touchdown and Haskins had one carry for 3 yards. Quarterback Justin Herbert rushed four times for 29 yards and one touchdown, a 5-yard scramble on the Chargers’ first drive of the game. Edwards’ 1-yard touchdown run came on their final possession. “Gus is heating up,” Harbaugh said. “Great to have him back in there.” Edwards has rushed for 206 yards and one touchdown on 63 carries in seven games, spending four games on injured reserve because of an ankle injury. Harbaugh was uncertain whether Dobbins’ injury would force him onto the injured reserve list and a minimum of a four-game layoff. “Don’t know that yet,” Harbaugh said of the possibility of Dobbins going on IR. Haskins has rushed for 26 yards and one touchdown on 13 carries, primarily playing an impactful role on special teams. Rookie Kimani Vidal, another possible replacement for Dobbins, has rushed for 44 yards on 18 carries and caught three passes for 49 yards and one touchdown. Dobbins has rushed for a team-leading 766 yards (fourth in the AFC) and eight touchdowns on 156 carries. He and Edwards signed with the Chargers in the offseason as free agents after starting their careers with the Ravens. Dobbins, 25, has had an injury-plagued career, but hasn’t missed a game so far this season. His 2023 season ended early after he sustained a torn Achilles tendon in the Ravens’ season opener. Herbert is the Chargers’ second-leading rusher with 211 yards and two touchdowns on 45 carries, most coming on scrambles away from on-rushing defenders. He set a career-high with a 38-yard scramble in the first quarter of the Chargers’ 26-8 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Oct. 27. Cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. hasn’t played since the Chargers’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3, placed on injured reserve because of a shoulder injury. Harbaugh declined to speculate whether Samuel would be sidelined for the remainder of the season, referring questions to Samuel. Samuel isn’t required to speak to reporters while on IR. So, his extended absence has been something of a mystery. However, his absence has opened the door for rookies Cam Hart and Tarheeb Still to move into the starting lineup. Hart is sidelined by an ankle injury that required him to wear a protective boot while watching Monday’s game from the sideline. Still has been a reliable fill-in with 33 tackles and one interception. “No, I don’t expect him back this week,” Harbaugh said of Samuel. In somewhat related moves, the Chargers placed cornerback Eli Apple on injured reserve because of a hamstring injury suffered against the Ravens. They also claimed safety Marcus Maye off of waivers. Maye played 11 games this season with the Miami Dolphins, who cut him earlier this week. Maye started three games and had 30 tackles overall for the Dolphins. Wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. started the season on injured reserve, but he hasn’t cracked the lineup consistently after recovering from a hip injury. Chark was active for only one game this season, the Chargers’ Nov. 10 victory over the Tennessee Titans , and he was on the field for only one snap. “The opportunity is there, the opportunity is there,” Harbaugh said of Chark, a seven-year NFL veteran. “I really like what I see. Every week, there’s an opportunity. Opportunities are guaranteed, and DJ has the license and opportunity to take advantage of that opportunity.”

The Buckeyes, 10-1 on the year, last defeated the Wolverines in November of 2019. The two schools did not play in 2020, due to the pandemic and an outbreak within the Ann Arbor program. Michigan then rallied off three straight wins over Ohio State from 2021-23, capping it with a Big Ten championship and national title win last season. But the two programs are in much different places this season. Ohio State is ranked No. 2 in the country and favored to win the national championship. Michigan, meanwhile, is 6-5 under first-year head coach Sherrone Moore, in the first year of the post-Jim Harbaugh era. Who will come out on top on Saturday? Aaron J. Thornton/Getty Images A computer model has released its prediction for the game on Saturday. Ohio State is favored to beat Michigan by 21 points. However, OddsShark's computer model believes that the Wolverines will end up covering the spread. Here's the final score prediction, from OddsShark: Ohio State 39.3, Michigan 22.3 Jason Mowry/Getty Images Ohio State fans would obviously take that. The Buckeyes surely want to cover the spread, too, but at the end of the day, all that matters is getting the victory. Kickoff between Ohio State and Michigan is scheduled for noon E.T. on Saturday afternoon. The Week 14 college football game will air on FOX. Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt will be on the call.

Donald Trump has added another Fox News contributor to his future administration, this time tasking him with ending the war between Russia and Ukraine . Fox News regular and retired Army Lt. General Keith Kellogg has been nominated to be Trump's special envoy to the countries. He previously served as national security adviser to Vice President Mike Pence and acted as chief of staff of the National Security Council, as reported by the Associated Press . "I am very pleased to nominate General Keith Kellogg to serve as Assistant to the President and Special Envoy for Ukraine and Russia. Keith has led a distinguished Military and Business career, including serving in highly sensitive National Security roles in my first Administration. He was with me right from the beginning! Together, we will secure PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH, and Make America, and the World, SAFE AGAIN!" Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday. The highly decorated retired general has previously advised Trump on strategies in the region. Kellogg presented a plan involving peace talks and a ceasefire back in June, as reported by Reuters . However the plan notably left current battle lines in place, leaving Russia in control of much of Ukraine. The president-elect has criticized the large amounts of aid given to Ukraine in the past, leading Ukrainian leaders and supporters to worry that Trump would cease or reduce supplies for their war effort. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appeared less worried following a call with Trump and Elon Musk earlier this month, where they reportedly pledged their support to Ukraine. Kellogg marks the fourth former Fox News contributor to be added to the administration, after presenter Pete Hegseth was nominated for secretary of defense and contributor and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee was nominated to be the next U.S. Ambassador to Israel. Trump also nominated Fox News host and former Wisconsin Rep. Sean Duffy to serve as the secretary for the Department of Transportation, as reported by CNN . Originally published by Latin Times .
