Information On Capillary Fragility - Capillaritis, Purpura
Capillary is the smallest type of blood vessel in the vascular system. Capillaries connect the smallest arteries with the smallest veins; most are so narrow that only one blood cell can pass along them at a time. The capillary wall is the conduit for material passing from an artery to a vein. The function of capillaries is to carry oxygen-rich blood to the tissues, to pass food substances to tissue cells, and to carry away waste products, such as carbon dioxide.
Capillaritis is the name given to a harmless skin condition in which there are reddish-brown patches caused by leaky capillaries. It is also known as pigmented purpura.
Purpura is a skin discoloration caused by bleeding (hemorrhage) under the skin. A small hemorrhage is called a petechia and a large one, as in a bruise, is called an ecchymosis. Purpura may result from trauma, from fragility of the blood vessels, or from clotting disorders.
Fragility of the blood vessels usually is inherited, although it seldom is serious. In a more serious inherited form of the disorder, a condition known as telangiectasia, there are obvious abnormalities of the blood vessels in the lips, mouth, and fingers.
There is no known cure for most cases of capillaritis. It can disappear within a few weeks, recur from time to time, or frequently persist for years.
Consider if a medication could be the cause: discontinue it for several months to find out if the capillaritis improves. Try avoiding food preservatives and artificial coloring agents. Return to a normal diet if there is no improvement after several months. Topical steroids can be helpful for itching but rarely clear the capillaritis. If the lower leg is affected, consider wearing graduated compression elastic hose. Currently available lasers are not particularly helpful for this condition.
Prolonged treatment with drugs such as aspirin and cortisone may also result in purpura. Scurvy (caused by lack of vitamin C) is another disorder that causes purpura. A rare, but serious, cause of purpura is Henoch-Schenlein purpura, which may follow an upper respiratory tract infection that damages the blood vessels.
PCOs are believed to improve capillary stability, and are used for venous insufficiency, liver cirrhosis, diabetic retinopathy, postsurgical lymphedema, postoperative facial edema, sports injury related edema, repeated ecchymoses, and purpuric syndromes.
PCOs are a variety of flavonoid-like proanthocyanidins found in numerous plants. Some of the most abundant sources are grape seeds and maritime pine bark. Other food sources include hawthorn flowers, various berries, onions, legumes, red wine, and parsley, and related chemicals are found in bilberry. Collectively, they are known as procyanidolic oligomers. Recent in vitro studies suggest that grape seed PCOs possess superior antioxidant activity to vitamin C or vitamin E. This antioxidant effect occurs in both polar and nonpolar media, giving PCOs a certain functional similarity to lipoic acid. In Europe, PCOs are widely used to treat conditions believed to be related to increased capillary fragility. These include venous insufficiency (varicose veins and hemorrhoids), other unsightly superficial blood vessels, easy bruising, edema of various causes, and diabetic retinopathy. PCOs are also used for aging skin, Macular Degeneration, allergic rhinitis, and Atherosclerosis. Additionally, they are promoted as general antioxidants.
why do i persistintly get this on my forearms after a mild abrasionn?
I get capillaritis in my lower legs. it happen's whenever I go in the sun. I wear sun cream but still appears. Why is that?
I have had it on my left forearm for three years and now have it on the back of my right thigh. The dermatologist didn't know what it was and told me to use hydrocortisone but that didn't help at all. I called a new dermatologist and now have to wait 5 months till I can get an appointment so am searching the internet for my own answers. I am pregnant so am going to talk to my OB to make sure it's not something I need to be concerned about in regards to my pregnancy.
I have it all over my legs, between my thighs, on my abdomen and on the insides of my arms. Dr. did a biopsy of it, said it was capillaritis... but just said to take 2000 mg of vit. C and one aspirin a day to help thin my blood. Who knows if it will work!
IF you have capillaritis, you may have capillary fragility. IF your capillaries are fragile, you might want to rethink aspirin. Aspirin is salicylic acid which breaks up the epidermis, including, I would think, the lining of capillaries.
I have just been diagonsed by my dermatologist that I have capillaritis on most parts of my body, including forearms, inner thighs, lower back and torso. I have been using cortisone cream and I am on my 3rd repeat but it does not go away. I have had since 2006 since my dad past away. Does anyone have any suggestions on any proper treatment and how it came about in the first place? My next option is to see a naturopath this coming Friday.
I recently was diagnosed with Capillaritis. It usually occurs on the lower half of my body with some cases on my arms. I have been prescribed Flucinonide .05%. It has worked very well and knocked out all signs of it in about 1-2 weeks.
I have A research project and I was wondering how much scapPilaties ate in our Body
Rutin vitiamin cured mine.
I found out I have this, I'm very concious about it as it is scattered all over my feet, legs, thighs and now arms, I'm only 19 and very conscious about it, any ideas what to get to help it clear up. Pleeeeeease!!
Questions you may want to consider: Has anyone in your family had anything like this before? If so consult your doctor and inquire about Marfans, Ehler's Danlos syndromes, Heriditary telangiectasia or Osler-weber-rendu syndrome. If there is no family history they are common when taking steroids (even corticosteroid creams could do it), low vitamin C intake, infections elsewhere or abnormal proteins. They also become more common as you age. If you have had any troubles with nosebleeds, black tar-like faeces, blood in faeces, really easy bruising, excessive bleeding at the dentists or heavy periods mention it to your GP. If you have capillaritis: medications you are already on, ertain preservaives and food colourings can enhance it. The cortisone cream will only ease or prevent itching, it won't usually get rid of the rash, it may fade with time though.
is it allergic in nature
I have factor 5 Leiden I have a lot of scar tissue I have had a lot of veins Surgeries. I have had previous deep vein clots I am on blood thinners have major swelling all the time in major pain I use stockings and they don't work
Its been interesting reading others experiences. Mine confirms that cortisone cream is good for relieving iching but rest seems the best way to get rid of the condition. Mine came back again after a period of central heating, tractor mower & car all breaking down at the same time. I wonder whether stress brings it on especially as stasi commented that he/she got it after father passed away. Cool showers are better than hot showers and Unguentum M cream helps by softening dry shin. Vitiliglow is a new skin camauflage cream but does not help the actual condition. The best I can do longer term is relax & chill.
45 years of steroids on psoriasis may cause fragile skin and capillaries.
I was diagnosed with it almost a year ago. Oral steroids helped, but as soon as I was done taking them, the capillaritis came back.
I've had this purpura on my feet/ankle area since I was about 14 yrs old. When in school it used to go and come. Once I didn't have any sign of it for 2 years. But now I've had it for the past 10 years with it being persistently there everyday. It seems to lighten up and not be so dark in color when I'm not on my feet, like when I wake up in the morning. This new dermatologist I went to recommended Rutin and some Vitamin C. We'll see if that works. It's such an eye sore. I really have to work up the courage to wear sandals in the summer. I've tried to camouflage it with makeup, but you can still see it.
Did the routin work for you? I have it too for almost 8 years now come and go it was worst in the beginning and it disappear and its all coming again! Its really an eye sore and doctors cant say what is it! Please reply! Thank you!
Mine is clearing up after dermatologist said to add 500mg twice a day and also rut in 50mg twice a day(I was already taking rutin, but the vit c has made astounding difference in just a few days. I'm beginning g to wonder if doctors are missing the possibility of scurvy(vitamin c deficiency) diagnosis because in adult diets in USA it really should be rare. I wonder if our foods contain enough ascorbic acid anymore? The body does not store it. We need it every day.
I've had this capillaritis for about 1 yr. now & it has gotten progressively worse especially around my ankles. It is so unsightly, a bit itchy & almost frightening to look at. Going to a 3rd Dermatologist soon & hope & pray for some good answers & results. I'm feeling desperate at this point.
I have scurvy - and can't recover from it
Is it normal for capillaritis to come back. I have had it for a year now, since I was twelve. The spots became all fully brown and faded but now they are starting to come back. I really want to get rid of it because it is a big insecurity of mine
How much Rutin do you take. I was told Vit C and Rutin but I don't remember the dosage.
My fragile capillary condition is driving me crazy. My forearms itch like crazy and I'm not sure why. I am a chronic pain sufferer so I take Norco on a daily basis. That may be why it happens. When I scratch my arms due to relentless itching I easily get deep red discoloration on my forearms which is very unsightly. I'm embarrassed to wear short sleeves. I have had this condition for years now and not sure where to turn. My doctor told me it was not harmful but it sure is ugly. I will try the vitamin C and Rutin. I'll try anything that may work. The itching is relentless but if it's the drug that causes it I don't know what to do because my back and leg pain is also relentless. Would love to hear some suggestions.
I'm not sure which part of this is working, but it's working. Haven't had an incident in months. Bamboo silica, C, 1000 mg. Quercetin bioflavinoids and Silica and MSM moisturizing lotion by Eidon. I can wear short sleeves again!
I was diagnosed with this condition a year or two ago and was told it was an age thing (I am 72) .The dermatologist said nothing can be done. This year I noticed that it has got a lot worse after sitting in the sun and also after showering too.It is very red with the odd blister .Will show my GP when I go next week and make sure that Capillaritis is all it is .
I think my condition is similar. My problem is that in the past couple of years my skin (and maybe capillaries) have gotten extremely fragile. I am currently 55 years old and very physically active both at work and home. However, anytime I rub against anything that would have just yielded a scuff on my skin in the past, I am now looking for antiseptic and bandages. Working on one of my vehicles leaves me looking like I've been in a cat fight with several cats when in the past I would not have shed a drop of blood. Hard bumps to my forearms and wrists leaves bright red/pinkish blood seeps under the skin. Just today I was digging up a section of our home's water line and brushed a tree root in the ground near my right elbow. It was so slight I didn't even think about it. Later, my wife came to check on me and about passed out because half my forearm was covered in blood along with some blood trails back and forth to the hole I had dug. It has gotten so bad I can pinch my skin and break it.
I have been caring for my 97 year old mother-in-law who seems to have the condition being discussed here. She has dementia and cannot adequately communicate her discomfort but her skin is extremely fragile, shins are a brownish color all the time and she gets large purple "bruised" areas under the skin on legs and forearms. What seems to have helped the most is supplementing with 1000mg. rutin 2x daily and 1000mg. vitamin C along with 50 to 100mg of zinc. When there is a new "bruise" I also topically apply arnica oil (arnica would also be a good homeopathic supplement). These things all seem to keep her skin more stable. Without them, I am sure it would be much worse. Good luck to anyone trying this protocol. I also think quercetin would be a good addition.
I just recently the last few months with the blood like rash on my legs arms and inside of my mouth. I was dx with stage 4 lung cancer in sept 2016 . I have been on chemo yesterday was my last round I am in remission. I was wondering will this go away are stay with me never had this before I am 53yrs old and it seems it gets worst with the neulasta shot I had one put on yesterday but my rash came before the shot.
Not going out to eat and cooking my own meals has been my best + most effective healthy eating tip!
500 mg of Rutin and 1000 my of Vitamin C have helped me tremendously. I was clear for just under 6 months and now I'm having a flare up on my left hand and arm. The top of my hand is almost covered. Hopefully it starts,to clear soon. My right hand is slightly speckled. I expect it will look like tge left soon. I read that this can be linked to my Hashimoto's auto immune disease. I'm pretty sure I will be dealing with this for the rest of my life.
I find it happens in warmer weather, which is a disappointment because I don't feel I can wear shorts or skirt with badly stained lower legs. I will try the vitamin C and rutin, provided I can find rutin - it's something I've never heard of. Thank you all.
Rutin can also be called bioflavanoids, fyi.
I was 1st diagnosed with capillarities 3yrs ago and after it progressively got worse, i have seen 2 more dermos. The last 1 said i have generalized essential telangetasia and the only option is laser. Patches did disappear for a time so I'm hoping it can do so again but condition has got worse over the last 2yrs and im now covered all over my legs, arms and patches on back and front. Tried Rutin and Vit C but no change. Sun exposure defiantly makes it worse and often itches after a shower. Hopefully we will find something that will help. A dark goid quality fake tan is the only way i can cover but still have to wear leggings in the heat.

As crazy as it seems, the 49ers should win a game this Sunday.
Not because they're good or improving. They seem to get a little worse each week.
It's because they're playing the New York Giants, almost as bad as the 49ers. The Giants have won only one game this year.
And they're dysfunctional. They're falling apart. They've gotten outscored by 51 points the past two games. The 49ers, bless their hearts, have gotten outscored by only 33 points the past two weeks.
Here's why the 49ers should win.

"First of all Neil and I would like to say a big thank you to Mike and his dedicated team. They were all professional and it was a pleasure to witness them working as Master Thatchers. Our re-thatched ridge is lovely. We would not hesitate to recommend your company. Many thanks once again."
Mr and Mrs Sparrow
"We are very pleased the work has been completed before the winter and have already had many complimentary remarks about the renovated state of the roof. It certainly looks very smart indeed and should help to tempt a purchaser! I was very impressed by the way your firm completely re-thatched the house with reed in 1973, which no doubt enhanced its value considerably – and the same applies to what you have just done. You and your staff all work jolly hard and do an excellent job – and cleared up very thoroughly at the end. With best wishes to you and your staff."
Mr Walker
"Steven, Michael and Luke are a rare example these days of a team who are true craftsmen in their field of expertise. Their friendliness, hard work and meticulous eye for the smallest detail achieved the highest quality finish which is a pleasure to behold. In just four weeks, they transformed the entire roof of our home into something truly beautiful. I therefore have no hesitation in recommending them to any prospective customer."
Mr Gibson
"We would like to say that the experience we had with your company was exceptional from day one until the thatching was complete! Our house looks amazing, people in the village are constantly stopping by and commenting on the excellent job you did. The team worked so hard and certainly took pride in their job. We will highly recommend your company in the future!"
Mr and Mrs Kersey

Buzzworthy: Mommy and Womb Sounds Bears
Just before Keegan was born, my husband bought him the Dex Womb Sounds Bear. It was a brown bear with short wavy fur that had a classic look. It was simple to use. Pretty much, when you turned a knob it sounded like a muffled heartbeat was emitting from the bear's belly. That is similar to the sound a baby hears in utero. Making it part of our bedtime routine was an awesome idea. We'd play, bathe, drink a bottle, rock and then he'd go to bed with his bear, listening to the rhythmic heartbeat. He would go to sleep quickly. And as he got older, he started turning the bear on by himself in the middle of the night or early morning to lull himself back to sleep.
Fast forward 19 months later. I am about to have Lochlan. I search high and low for the cute Womb Bear but all I am finding is Mommy Bear. They are both Dex Products, so I check it out online at DexProducts.com, and sure enough the Womb Bear and a Mommy Bear are two separate products. Dex used to have different styles, but they are no longer available as per their web site. From what I can tell, the Mommy Bear and Wombs Sounds Bear have the same purpose, even the same soundbox - but they are two different styles. So I register for Mommy Bear and was lucky enough to receive it as a gift at my baby shower for Lochlan.
The Mommy Bear is a golden yellow color, with embroidered eyes and nose. That is a major safety feature, since you do not want any small parts that can fall off and become choking hazards. And Lochlan does suck and gnaw on this bear's nose.
The bears are recommended for ages 0 - 24 months. Although, Keeg (2.5 years) still sleeps with his bear. On the back of the bear is a pocket that is Velcro'd close. Inside the pocket is where you will find the soundbox. The Soundbox takes 2 AA batteries. You have to unscrew the soundbox to change the batteries. The lifespan is a few months. When the bear starts sounding "rattley" change the batteries to hear a good strong heartbeat again. The sound box uses a knob that you twist to turn on, and the more you twist the louder it gets. The battery saver feature of this soundbox has it turn off in 40 minutes. I find that is long enough for both boys to fall asleep. The bear also has Velcro straps on the back, you can use it to attach the bear to the outside of the crib, or on the top railing, so that it is not a smothering risk. I always kept the bear's in the crib, so they can hear the bear's heartbeat loud and clear.
The Mommy Bear and all other Dex Products have a lifetime guarantee. Dex Products will replace or repair any part that is defect or malfunctioning during the effective life of the product. You will need proof of purchase and a receipt, though. If you have questions for Dex Products you can reach them:
Dex Products, Inc.
602-A Stone Road
Benicia, CA 94510
Even though Dex Products is a California Company, the bear is made in China. Like Pooh Bear, he is stuffed with fluff. Polyester Fibers, to be exact. To wash, only wipe down the surface and remove the soundbox before washing.
Remember, the bears aren't "magic" - but if used consistently with your bedtime routine, your baby should associate it with sleep, helping them go to sleep faster and happier. And as they get older and learn to turn it on themselves, they can self-soothe with the bear with a twist of the knob. Plus, this bear travels easily. Bring it to a hotel, on a plane, to grandma's, to a hospital, wherever they may be spending the night and the bear will be the comfort of home. We bring ours on vacation often.
I recommend the Dex Bears to everyone with a baby. I have bought the Dex Mommy Bear as a gift for two other moms-to-be. This is not a magic cure for sleep. But it is a tool that will assist in making bedtime easier and more comforting. This bear is a cuddly, wonderful addition to every baby and toddler's bedtime routine.

Tim Ramsberger is an organizer. As the former president of the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg and the current deputy director of Visit St. Pete/Clearwater, he knows about putting together special events.
Ramsberger is also an outdoorsman. A native of St. Petersburg, he is used to being on the water. That's how he befriended former Tampa Bay Times outdoors editor Terry Tomalin about 15 years ago.
Tomalin died May 19, and his 56th birthday would have been Nov. 25. Ramsberger didn't want this time of year to pass without recognition.
So he organized a paddle across Tampa Bay in Tomalin's honor. Tomalin was an avid canoer and kayaker, and he took Ramsberger on a few trips.
Working with Bruce Denson, Darry Jackson and Kurt Ott, the group finally settled on a date. The "Paddle Across Tampa Bay" honoring Tomalin will be held Sunday, with a short ceremony honoring Tomalin then a 71/2-mile paddle from Picnic Island in Tampa to North Shore Park in St. Petersburg.
"We wanted to find a way to continue the one part of Terry's life that connected us all," Ramsberger said. "He was the guy who always looked for adventure and reached out to various groups for the adventures. He was never short of ideas, and that's what I liked about him."
Indeed, Tomalin had many adventures on the water. He kayaked on just about every river in the state. George Stovall had been on most of those adventures, including a 350-mile paddle from Fort De Soto to Key Largo in 2001.
"That's when I first met him," Stovall said. "By the second day, we were paddling together."
Stovall also remembers a trip in an outrigger canoe from Key Largo to Bimini. Then there was a trip down the east coast of Florida from New Smyrna Beach to Melbourne. A paddle from the Georgia state line to the Gulf of Mexico on the Apalachicola River. And a paddle in a 24-foot mahogany dugout canoe from Cedar Key to Tarpon Springs.
"We definitely had some adventures together," Stovall said. "That's why we need to do this. We need to keep his memory alive."
Stovall said he will paddle in a two-man canoe with Tomalin's son, Kai.
The paddle is open to everyone, though it is suggested that only experienced paddlers do the 71/2-mile trip. There is also a 3-mile paddle that starts at 10 a.m. at North Shore Park. Paddlers head out 11/2 miles to meet the others, then return to the park.
The 1-mile trip across the grass flats of Tampa Bay is open to all skill levels.
None of the paddles are competitive, Ramsberger said. The point is to be on the water enjoying one of Tomalin's favorite activities.
"This is something we can have fun with and keep Terry's adventurous spirit alive," Ramsberger said.
He also stressed that one thing they can't control is the weather. Windy conditions could make the paddling much more difficult. But that's all part of being outdoors.
"Terry was kind of unpredictable, and this is an unpredictable thing we're doing," Ramsberger said. "Nobody's organized anything like this yet."

Landmark Sydney terrace goes to auction
FOR the first time in 12 years, a landmark Sydney property is available to the market.
Two of Paddington's historic terraces, merged into a single home at 36 Glenmore Rd, are scheduled to go to auction on Saturday, July 15 with a price guide of $3.6 million.
Michael Roberts fell in love with the circa 1900 property at first sight when house hunting following a relocation from Melbourne.
"It was bigger than I was after but I thought, I'll have a look," Mr Roberts said.
"One of the key reasons I chose it was because of how it felt.
"You close that front door and you've got birds in the trees out the back and it's a really tranquil setting within the city."
Mr Roberts' three level residence was created by the previous owner, an architect who managed to seamlessly meld neighbouring terraces into one stunning home.
Character features including period fireplaces, leadlights, wide timber floors, high ceilings and picture rails were retained during the renovation which served to enhance the sense of space and style.
"It's a great entertaining house because of the large rooms which open up to sunny balconies and courtyards," Mr Roberts said.
"There is a luxurious feel to it because of how it flows.
"People often say 'wow' when they first visit."
A rare and valuable asset is the secure garage with internal access, yet the inner-city location means a car is hardly necessary.
"Its address is key," Mr Roberts said.
"I used to walk to and from my office near Circular Quay.
"It's convenient as everything is at your fingertips."
Paddington's popular Five Ways and the bustling Oxford St shopping strip are only minutes away, while it's a short drive to the airport or beach.
Mr Roberts said the four-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers plenty of scope for the next owner to alter according to their needs.
Although, it really is quite perfect already and the only reason Mr Roberts has decided to sell is due to the substantial size of the property.
"I plan to stay in the area but I'm downsizing," he said.
"It's a big place for one person."
Dean Jarman, principal of Ray White Paddington, is taking 36 Glenmore Rd, Paddington to auction on Saturday, July 15 at 4pm.
"We are so proud to be offering such a landmark Paddington home to market," Mr Jarman said.
"This is an extremely scarce offering of grand beauty, sprawling over nine metres wide and set over three levels, even the lock-up garage has a soaring ceiling.
"It is a large home to either simply enjoy or redesign and recreate, and it will remain a rare icon set among the beautiful history that is Paddington."
The auction will be held at Ray White Paddington, 215 Glenmore Rd, Paddington.
Inspection times are Wednesdays and Saturdays, 11am – 11.30am.

Waikato's regional transport committee is supporting moves to lift the open road speed to 110km/h, where appropriate.
The multi-agency committee this week signed off a submission on the NZ Transport Agency's proposed speed limit setting rule which suggests the higher speed be available on approved roads.
The ability to set a 110km/h speed limit needed to be subject to the road meeting the very high standards proposed by the agency, such as it being a four-lane highway with median barriers, the submission says.
The submission notes the completed Waikato Expressway will meet the criteria for a 110km/h speed limit.
"This move seems a sensible measure providing it is controlled properly," says committee chair Hugh Vercoe of Waikato Regional Council.
The submission says, however, that it's assumed trucks will continue to travel at the maximum legal speed of no more than 90km/h.
"It will be very important that strong enforcement is in place to ensure cars do not travel more than 110km/h and trucks no more than 90km/h," the submission says.
To ensure this enforcement is effective, the committee supports the rollout of new technologies to enforce speed limits on these higher speed roads. This could include greater placement of new technology speed cameras.
The committee also noted extra concerns about the safety of cyclists using roads where the speed limit is lifted to 110km/h.
It said cyclists should be separated from general traffic flow and be catered for by cycle lanes on or beside such roads.

Emma Watson, 23, shopping a new luxury apartment in New York City today. Dressed casually in a wool scarf, coat, jeans and white sneakers and carrying a property portfolio, Emma viewed properties in a brand new condominium building at 150 East 72nd Street where prices range from $4-15 million.
She was accompanied by real estate broker. Later Emma came back to her current apartment to find her ex boyfriend Will Adamowicz outside of her apartment building.
Watson, who has been photographed recently with new boyfriend Matthew Janney, found Will, looking upset and wearing a green parka, which he has been photographed in previously, with the hood up.
Emma did not exit her car, but later, Adamowicz was seen getting into a cab with Emma's broker and it's understood he went to meet the actress at an undisclosed location. Photos: INF.

I read something about that a few weeks ago, I can't remember the source, but it sounds amazing. It's rumoured that there will be a reality tv show to help fund the mission. So, they film you during your training, and during your time in settlement.
I'd really love to do it, but I imagine that it's close to impossible to prepare for the potential mental anguish and emotional pain you'll develop up there just from being homesick... and especially because it's a one-way ticket.
Still, it would incredible. You'd legitimately have claim to being the person who started the world!

Not necessarily true. Someone has to be smart enough to fly the ship there
We have computers to do that, people cant guide their way to mars...its too complicated. Its not a straight line, everything is moving in opposite directions.
I'll have to respectfully disagree. IMO when a manned mission is concerned they're going to put at least one pilot in there. Just in case the navigation is messed up or anything. In space anything can go wrong. Also it can't be that complicated, someone has to program the computer to fly there. So someone knows what to do because if they didn't then they wouldn't be able to tell the computer how to get there. A machine is only as smart as who created it. Except google. haha
I doubt a pilot as you call it would go, if they are intelligent enough to work out planets motions, speeds and all the rest of it, im sure they would be intelligent enough to know they are flying to their death.
Everything is constantly changing in space, there are no points of reference like here on earth. If you headed towards a star that was near mars (appeared near to mars) when you left, you would pass mars by millions of miles. The human brain cannot make calculations like a computer can, they wouldn't know if they were off course, a computer does.
Computer programs work with complicated algorithms, a computer can do far more than what it is programmed for.....if computers were limited to the intelligence of the human mind we would still be using tech from the 50s.
Thats why computers are used for so many complicated tasks. The program sets rules, it doesnt necessarily explain everything the computer does.edit on 22-4-2013 by AmberLeaf because: (no reason given)
Answer this if an unexpected asteroid or even meteorite comes outta no where. would you trust the computer to move out of the way. It doesn't matter how advanced are computers are they're not going to trust a project thats going to cost several billion dollars on a computer alone. But like I said before that is my opinion
The colony's budget comes in at "about $6 billion," Lansdorp said. "The $6 billion is for the first crew that goes there."
By comparison, NASA's rover Curiosity, the most advanced and biggest robot to ever traverse Mars, is a $2.5 billion mission.
Where exactly the $6 billion will go remains a mystery. Lansdorp said he didn't want to release an itemized budget because of competition.
"We will certainly not send couples," Lansdorp said.
At the news conference, Lansdorp said he'd like to go to Mars himself, but he isn't because his girlfriend won't come along.
"I have a really nice girlfriend, and she doesn't want to come with me, so I'm staying right here."
Media coverage will provide the main funding for the mission, Mars One said. Publicity is key, and the media event begins now with the casting of the astronauts.
"Not unlike the televised events of the Olympic Games, Mars One intends to maintain an ongoing, global media event, from astronaut selection to training, from liftoff to landing," it says.

D.C. Public Service Commission Rejects PEPCO-Exelon Merger with Conditions
The Washington D.C. metropolitan region was expecting to hear about one of the largest utility mergers in the country today but the D.C. Public Service Commission (PSC) says the deal is not that simple. The PSC rejected the merger between PEPCO and Exelon in a room packed with media and but will still keep the lights on surrounding the merger.
By a vote of 2 to 1 against the merger, the PSC rejected the deal but will allow for consideration of an alternative agreement. The Nonunanimous Full Settlement Agreement and Stipulation (NSA) of PEPCO and Exelon was deemed as "not being in the public interest."
Chairman Betty Kane explained why she voted against the merger.
"There are additional significant flaws in the NSA which are not addressed by the proposed alternative terms. In particular, the return of PEPCO to an ownership structure that includes energy generation, supply, marketing and sales will result in an entanglement of management, financial health, and decision-making. This is a fatal flaw which will adversely affect PEPCO and create a diversion of focus that carries it in the opposite direction from DC law and policy," Kane said in a news release.
Commissioner Joanne Fort proposed to allow alternative terms for the merger to be approved without additional action by the Commission.
"I agree with the NSA's supporters that the changes made by the NSA to the merger application, other than those [four concerns] that I have identified in this concurrence, have removed the reservations that I had with the original merger application. Moreover, I do not believe that the NSA is fatally flawed because each of the four concerns that the majority opinion has noted can be corrected by revising the NSA with alternative terms. For that reason and as explained in more detail in Order No. 18109, I have crafted alternative terms for the NSA and asked my fellow Commissioners to approve sharing them with the Settling Parties for their consideration under Commission Rule 130.17(b)," Fort said in a news release.
Chairman Kane and Commissioner Fort agreed that there were four concerns that warranted rejection of the NSA.
- Allocation of $25.6 million in funds for the Customer Investment Fund (CIF)
- PEPCO's role in solar energy production
- Proposed use of CIF funds for sustainablity projects and Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) payments and modernization of the District's power grid
- The method for allocation of CIF funds to District government agencies deprives the Commission ability to ensure funds are being used to enhance the power grid and benefit customers
Commissioner Willie Phillips released a separate opinion on the merger.
"I applaud the parties for negotiating a settlement that I believe is in the public interest. The Joint Applicants worked to address deficiencies outlined by the Majority's initial order on the merger, and got most of the parties to agree to a settlement. However, today's decision has effectively moved the goal post in order to reject the settlement. So, I cast my vote today to allow my colleague to circulate proposed terms, for the sole purpose of giving the Settling Parties an avenue to consummate their agreement, instead of resulting in an outright denial," Phillips said in a news release.
PEPCO and Exelon will have two weeks to come up with a revised agreement after Friday's vote.
"The Commission's order prescribes new provisions that we and the settling parties must carefully review to determine whether they are acceptable. Once we have had a chance to study the order and confer with the settling parties, we will have more to say about what it means and our next steps," PEPCO and Exelon officials said in a joint news release.

While we were in Mexico City, our apartment was literally right next door to Salón Corona's original location at Bolívar 24, so it became a second home for us. They also have a few other locations in the city that you can look up on their website.
For delicious, inexpensive tacos in Mexico City, draft beer and a great atmosphere, it's worth checking out.
You'll find most people are drinking a pint (tarro) of draft beer–claro (blonde) or obscura (dark). Shortly after getting your beer, you'll be served some spicy, pickled vegetables (a mix of carrots, zucchini, cauliflower and hot peppers).
Then you need to make the hard decision of what tacos to order. Here are some recommendations:
- Tacos al pastor (Mexico City's famous spit-grilled marinated pork that you see everywhere… a must-have)
- Tacos gringas (2 wheat tortillas filled with pastor meat and melted cheese… another must-have)
- Tacos mole verde (pork in a creamy, green sauce)
If you're in the mood for some seafood, try the octopus (pulpo) ceviche.
Don't worry about ordering everything at once. Food comes quickly, so feel free to order one round of tacos at a time so they stay warm and fresh. Enjoy!

Storage heaters do not come with a flex. Storage heaters are subject to a different installation method than, for example, a radiator or panel heater.
The connection cable must be hard wired via a 20A D/P isolation switch and must use heat resistant cable. These products are for installation by competent engineers and should not be installed using a plug or on to an existing ring main but on to a dedicated circuit from the consumer unit with the correctly rated MCB.

The Canberra Raiders were admitted to the competition in 1982 as the first side not be to based in New South Wales. Tremendous success early in their first decade saw them claim three premierships in a six-season stretch, but although they've made regular appearances in the finals since, meaningful success has been harder to come by.
The Raiders suffered growing pains in 2017 after an astonishing 2016 season. Six wins from their first 16 games put them well behind the eight-ball and, although they were able to get back in the race with four wins from their next five, they ultimately fell short of a finals spot, finishing 10th.

President Trump expands CIA drone powers
March 14, 2017 President Trump has secretly expanded the powers of the Central Intelligence Agency to conduct unmanned drone strikes against terrorists.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday that President Trump authorized the CIA powers, citing an anonymous source. Since the CIA already ran a covert drone program in Pakistan and increasingly in Yemen during the Obama administration, it appears the Trump administration is expanding the agency's reach.
The first U.S. unmanned drone strike took place in Pakistan in 2004, under President George W. Bush. Over the years, the popularity of drone strikes by the U.S. government and other countries has dramatically increased, and so has the controversy.
As U.S. drone strikes increased, the number of accidental civilian casualties turned a once receptive public against the high tech combat tool. The Drone Papers, leaked by Edward Snowden in October, 2015, evidenced the U.S. government under the Obama administration operated two drone programs, one publicly acknowledged and directed by the U.S. military, and one covertly directed by the CIA. The U.S. military drone program operated in declared war zones, like Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. The military also operates drones in undeclared war zones in Somalia and Yemen.
The CIA's drone program operated primarily in Pakistan, and increasingly in Yemen. It was a CIA operated drone that killed Anwar al-Awlaki, the American born Muslim cleric, who rose to the top of Al Qaeda's ranks in 2011.
The CIA program is classified as covert, and the intelligence agency declines to provide any information to the public about where it operates, how it selects targets, who is in charge, or how many people have been killed.

Antoninus of Pamiers

|Fredelacum (Pamiers)

|Venerated in
|Roman Catholic Church, Orthodox Catholic Church
|2 September
|Pamiers; Palencia; Medina del Campo
Saint Antoninus of Pamiers (French: Saint Antonin, Occitan: Sant Antoní, and Spanish: San Antolín) was an early Christian missionary and martyr, called the "Apostle of the Rouergue". His life is dated to the first, second, fourth, and fifth century by various sources, since he often confused with various other venerated Antonini. Today he is revered as the patron saint of Pamiers, Palencia, and Medina del Campo. His historicity and exact identity are in doubt.
Reportedly born at Fredelacum (Pamiers), he converted to Christianity and made a pilgrimage to Rome, where he was ordained. He returned to preach the Gospel in Aquitaine, especially in the border regions of the Rouergue. He is credited with performing many miracles. He was martyred at Vallis Nobilis, now Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val on 2 September, his feast day. His relics ended up at Pamiers and Palencia.
Antoninus was venerated from an early date. Palencia Cathedral is dedicated to him.
According to local tradition, the Cripta de San Antolín at Palencia Cathedral, which supposedly houses his relics, was finished during the mid-seventh century episcopate of Ascaric. A monastery dedicated to him had been built near Foix by the eighth century. It claimed to possess his head and part of his body, brought from Syria by a boat that had navigated the rivers Ariège, Tarn, Garonne, and Aveyron with the aid of an angel. These conflicting traditions suggest that the martyr of Pamiers is the same person as the martyr Antoninus of Syria.
