A “miracle child from nowhere" born to a Stafford mother who has only half an ovary was revealed today at Stafford's maternity unit. Tiny Alfie Siviter is the baby nobody ever thought could be born. His mother Trudi Siviter, aged 39, was told by doctors 20 years ago she could never have children and, after two ectopic pregnancies, several attempts at IVF fertility treatment and the removal of all but half of one ovary, she had resigned herself to having a hysterectomy. But last July – three months before she was due to have the hysterectomy – she was “shocked, but happy", to find she was pregnant. Despite having only half an ovary left, which was itself not functioning properly, Alfie was born naturally at Staffordshire General Hospital's maternity unit eight months into the pregnancy on December 7.

Extra! UIdaho Student Found Shot to Death
One demanded to know if she was a candidate for the position she now holds while a search committee hunts for Michael Burke's replacement. She'd have an unfair advantage in the search process if she was interested in the job, it was noted. The prez deferred that question to NIC PRmeister Kent Propst. Another queried her about the political makeup of the faculty � conservative, liberal, middle of the road? Of course, he was dredging up the flap involving student Linda Cook, who received her tuition money back recently after she complained that part-time English instructor Jessica Bryan regularly bashed Republicans and the Bush administration during classroom discussions. That was "European-American" activist Stan Hess' cue to launch a monologue about the need for the college faculty to reflect the political views of the community.
