John,Please don't apologize! Those look great! So you rolled the dough onto the tubes? And did you wet the edges to make it stick onto itself? How long did they bake? and did the tubes slide out easily?I think you can claim this as your own invention. Bravo!John K
John - you have some serious creative talent and wood-fired inspiration. Does your oven ever cool off?
Thank you. Unfortunately my oven is freezing in the snow all winter!John
wow john what a great idea.i might have to steal it.just kidding
John you don't cook in the winter? I had to fire mine up at least once a week even with the cold temps and snow. Did you have to mini cure it the first time after winter?

Skip to comments.Poll: Sarah Palin Surprisingly Leads 2012 GOP Contenders After Bus Tour
Posted on 06/10/2011 9:45:07 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
She hasn't declared her candidacy yet. She showed up in New Hampshire the same day Mitt Romney declared he was running for president and garnered most of the press. And that was before the media got hold of her Paul Revere gaffe. And despite the fact that most Republicans won't vote for her, Palin has managed to top a poll.
In what might be considered something more suitable to the strange-but-true section of the news, a poll released Wednesday by Reuters/IPSOS reflects something not seen in the results of any other poll -- Sarah Palin leading all other Republican 2012 presidential contenders. According to the poll, the former governor of Alaska, who has yet to declare her candidacy, is actually ahead of former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, who announced his candidacy in New Hampshire on June 2 and who leads most polls, including one released by Fox News.
Although the Fox News poll put Romney ahead of Palin by 11 points (and ahead of second-place Rudy Giuliani by 10 percent), 23 percent to 12 percent, the Reuters poll placed Palin two points ahead of Romney at 22 percent to 20.
What makes Palin's lead in the poll strange is that the poll was conducted over the past weekend -- after she made the Paul Revere gaffe. The poll was taken from Friday to Monday. Palin made the gaffe on Friday and then made things worse by telling Fox News' Chris Wallace Sunday that she wasn't wrong with her statement that Paul Revere warned the British. She then attempted to convince a clearly amused Wallace (and the viewing audience) that the famed American colonial revolutionary and Boston silversmith rode through the streets of Boston warning both the colonists and the British that the British were on their way to take away their guns and freedom.
Perhaps voting members of the GOP do not care that their elected officials are ignorant of rudimentary American history (which Palin insisted to Wallace that she knows). But even if one were to allow for historical ignorance, it could well be asked what part of Palin's resume appeals to the conservative voter when she has shown that her greatest political attribute is her ability to spout meaningless talking points and platitudes as a fundraiser.
But perhaps the numbers were a reflection that Palin's remarks hadn't had time to sink in with the Republican electorate. The Fox News Poll was conducted starting the day the Reuters poll concluded and the day after Palin insisted that her version of Revere's ride was accurate.
And the Fox poll showed she was 11 percentage points behind the leader and 1 point behind another undeclared potential candidate...
Of course, with the margin of error, which was +/- 3 percent, Palin actually could assume the same second-place position in the Reuters/IPSOS Poll she has held in most polls since Mike Huckabee and Donald Trump both withdrew from GOP presidential consideration in mid-May.
Regardless, Palin's continued strong presence in the polls indicates that she will continue to be a powerful force within the Republican Party -- whether she decides to run for president or not.
If the bus tour put her in the lead, imagine what the emails will do :)
Surprising lead? How can it be surprising. This woman is out there pushing hard for the country and hitting Obummer. Of course her numbers are doing better. The party is dying for people to step up and start this process of firing this POS President already.
FNC is trying to appeal to moderates and is going downhill fast.
You can't buy free press this cheap.
i love how the liberals refuse to accept historians opinions tha tgov Palin was 1005 correct about Paul Revere.
Another outright lie. There was no gaffe and Wallace acknowledge he had Googled the statement to confirm Palin was correct. This clown Norman Byrd is a Bird Brain.
They're going to "scandalize" and "railroad" her right into the oval office! She must be laughing and rubbing her hands together as we speak.
There is nothing surprising about Palin being in the lead. Frankly, the way the entire media is, I would bet Palin's REAL numbers are a lot higher than anyone is willing to admit.
God bless Sarah!
This is going to make Liberals' and Big Media's heads explode.
LOL...Romney fatigue already lol.
Sara Palin in the Left's worst nightmare, and they are betraying their abject fear that the sane voters in the GOP may nominate her.
Stopped reading there. No sense inflicting the ravings of a lunatic imbicile on myself.
Good Lord, 2nd. Sarah has been proven to be right and this author continues the spin? I guess the old adage is still apt for the media, liberals and Democrats: Ya just can't fix stupid.
Isn't this an example of the media picking the GOP candidate with a bogus poll?
If that were the case, wouldn't all or most of the polls show her winning? What good is only one poll that looks like an outlier? And why spend two and a half years attacking her?
Just asking for consistancy from conservatives. A poll that shows your candidate ahead is a great poll. While the one showing the other person ahead is a grand conspiracy to force RINOs upon us.
"And despite the fact that most Republicans won't vote for her,"
This is who saying this?
13. Norman Byrd - Norman Byrd is an award-winning freelance writer who has been writing professionally for three decades, mostly under pseudonyms. An avid scholar, Norman has five degrees, including Baccalaureates in History and English and a Masters in Psychology. He is an avid reader (everything), music lover (heavy metal, jazz, blues, Celtic, and country), forensics case follower (of television's true crime and fictitious mystery series), and sports fan (especially the Dallas Cowboys, WVU Mountaineers, Boston Celtics, and Boston Red Sox) which are the areas wherein he devotes his time when not writing. He currently lives in South Carolina.
Surprisingly is another word for unexpectedly.
There was no Revere "gaffe". She was proved to be correct as anyon with a smattering of knowledge of history already knew.
Get used to Madame President...
And when the truth gets known the he was captured by the British and indeed told them that the colonists were armed an on their way....Palin's ratings will go up another 2 points.
[ And that was before the media got hold of her Paul Revere gaffe. ]
GAffe?.. what gaffe?... She made no gaffe...
This article is a gaffe.. inventing a gaffe..
This is so unexpected.
I hope she becomes POTUS and cleans out the Justice Dept. and FBI. Then goes after all the criminals in Washington. That is the real root of Palinphobia.
I believe that Sarah made her statement about Paul Revere warning the British on purpose knowing that the media would not know this and would jump on it and that they would be proven wrong. I think she set the bait and they took it. I mean the way she said it made me think she was playing stupid because that is how the MSM likes to portray her. I think she did it on purpose and that it worked masterfully. Sarah, you MAGNIFICENT GRIZZLY!!
and these jackasses are too stupid to know that she was right, and Wallace confirmed she was right.
I'm starting to wonder myself.
I am with you. I say go for it and forget the Pack of other candidates. Why waste any more time. Obama and the Media must be stopped NOW!
"Surprising" the new MSM "unexpected".
"Good Lord, 2nd. Sarah has been proven to be right and this author continues the spin? I guess the old adage is still apt for the media, liberals and Democrats: Ya just cant fix stupid."
NPR did the same thing in an article yesterday.
Goebbels would be proud...
Darn, I keep forgetting:
Palin '12!!!
Thank GOD "Norman Byrd" knows more about history than historians.
I believe Sarah tricked the left with the Revere comment. I have another one for her: She goes on TV, and calls George Washington the Ninth President of the United States. After the liberals go nuts, she shows them this: Presidents of the United States Under the Articles of Confederation
Booby trap for the media.
So.....in the MSM vernacular, "surprisingly" has replaced "unexpectedly" as the norm.....Well, it makes sense. For anything connected with OBAMA's depression economy, it's 'unexpectedly' ...against expectations of sychophantic ass lickers. For Sarah, it's 'surprising'...even in having to report the numbers they manage to express 'surprise'.....screw them. I'm going to vote for her and contribute to her campaign (frequently by CC) - if she announces...screw the FEC, the IRS and anyone else...they'll have to sift through billions of CC transactions to catch it.
I must say it is kind of fun and entertaining to watch Sarah Palin sniping at the liberal Mass Media from a very advantageous perch, and there does not seem to be a damned thing they can do about it, 'cept p+ss and moan. LOL

I mentioned to Drax in this:http://www.teachat.com/viewtopic.php?p=76537&highlight=#76537 post that I was having a humidor built for my Puerh collection. It arrived today and I thought that I would post some photos.
The inside which is Honduran Mahogany and is pretty much neutral as far as smell goes. No Pu in it yet. It is acclimating itself, which will take a couple of days.
The active humidification system. Don't worry, it is not a mist system. It is an evaporation type system. No wet tea to worry over.
Controller. Sorry for the bad photo.
I expect to get many cakes in this, but only time will tell. For now, I have left the door gasket/seal off for airflow. I may have to add depending on how much the system has to run.

U.S. field hockey returned to the Olympic Games for the first time since 1996 with a 2-2 draw against Argentina at the Olympic Green Hockey Stadium on Sunday.
The USA looked to be outmatched early by the number two team in the world as Argentina charged to a 2-0 lead in the first eleven minutes. But the Americans persevered and orchestrated a dramatic rally, capped by Angie Loy's goal in the 64th minute to tie the game and pick up one point in the standings.
The draw is an tremendous momentum boost for the eleventh-ranked USA, hoping to reclaim their spot as one of the world's top field hockey teams. Argentina is the top-ranked team in the USA's pool. The two teams dueled in the 2007 Pan American Cup final, with Argentina taking a 4-2 victory and the automatic bid for the 2008 Olympic Games.
"To play the world number two in the world in your first game in the Olympics and come away with a 2-2 draw, we are, to a degree, satisfied," said USA head coach Lee Bodimeade. "We knew that we had to bring our best game and we thought after defending so well on the penalty corners that Argentina were getting, maybe we could've caused an upset. Yes, we will take the point, but we have some work to do."
Argentina striker Carla Rebecchi was in prime form early, scoring quickly for Las Leonas, tipping a penalty corner shot from Noel Barrionuevo into the corner of the goal. Six minutes later, she knocked in a field goal to put Argentina ahead 2-0 and looking to dominate.
""We knew coming in we were going to have to be on our game from the beginning," said USA team captain Kate Barber. "I think we were a little on the back foot to start, and Argentina made us pay for that."
The Americans quickly regrouped. Keli Smith's deflection from a Rachel Dawson shot on a penalty corner gave the USA their first goal in the 18th minute, as well as a boost of confidence.
"Our team is known to persist and persist throughout the game regardless of the time. I think we dug deep," said Barber. "I think once we got into the flow of the game, and the speed and the intensity, we were able to string some passes together."
The defense consolidated. Argentina forced 11 penalty corners and only converted one.
"Our defense really held us together," said Barber. "We missed some opportunities on the attacking end, but overall, with our persistence, we knew we were able to get to a higher level, and once we were at that point, we executed."
Amy Tran, making her 100th international appearance, was impenetrable in the second half, denying several Argentina scoring opportunities with brilliant saves.
"Amy never needs any motivation to play," said Bodimeade, "but I think the moment of her hundredth game and her first game in the Olympics and knowing she's worked extremely hard to get to this point – it's come to fruition today."
Even more remarkable for the U.S. defense was the fact that both Kate Barber and Kayla Bashore were both separately sent off for yellow card fouls, leaving the Americans with only ten players for almost twenty minutes of the second half.
In weather conditions that ranged from a dull drizzle to a steady downpour, the USA chipped away at the Argentine defense.
With six minutes remaining, Kelly Doton launched a shot from above the scoring circle. Angie Loy picked up the pass and scored the second goal for the U.S. to tie the game. The heads of several Argentina players dropped.
"We had it won five minutes before the end of the match," said Argentina team captain Magdalena Aicega. "The number of penalty corners and penetration into the attacking circle – we had more than the USA. That's why I'm not happy. We made some mistakes in the defense."
The USA had the opportunity to win the game in the closing seconds with a penalty corner goal, but Argentina successfully blocked the shot.
The U.S. Olympic Team for Women's Field Hockey returns to competition against Japan on Tuesday, August 12. Japan, ranked number six in the world, defeated New Zealand, 2-1, in play earlier in the day. The United States is slotted in Pool B with Argentina, Germany, Great Britain, Japan and New Zealand.

Yes it is a necessary tool.
I have seen a few people try and true their wheels and totally pull them out of dish.
I like my bikes to be perfect and this is a necessary tool if you want to build your own wheels and especially if you own your own truing stand.
I remember walking through the local REI getting little travel accesories before we headed for Honduras to teach DH and XC skills for two weeks and hearing one of the costumers complaining to one of their techs about how his tire was lining up between his fork legs. The idiot mechanic there was bullshitting him about how the fact his front hub had a brake rotor and it is what throws the wheel out of dish when you put the wheel and tire back into the fork. Yeah, I butted in and called bullshit all over the guy. Doing your own bike work is really the only way to avoid some idiot fucking up your bike.

Learn more:United States' Strategy for Meeting the Millennium Development Goals
World leaders are gathering in New York over the next two days to assess progress on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and discuss ways to meet the 2015 deadline for reaching them. What do they hope to achieve in the next five years?
For MDG 1, "Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger," the concrete goals are to:
• Halve, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people whose income is less than $1 a day.
• Achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all, including women and young people.
• Halve, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people who suffer from hunger.
This UN fact sheet suggests that the world is on track for meeting this goal. U.S. programs such as Feed the Future and other food security initiatives are committed to ensuring continued progress.
For MDG 2, "Achieve Universal Primary Education," the goal is to:
• Ensure that, by 2015, children everywhere, boys and girls alike, will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling.
According to this UN fact sheet, current enrollment numbers are not high enough to meet the goal, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, although primary school enrollment in developing nations has increased since 2000. You can read more about the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)'s literacy programs here.
For MDG 3, "Promote Gender Equality and Empower Women," the goal is to:
• Eliminate gender disparity in primary and secondary education, preferably by 2005, and in all levels of education no later than 2015.
As reported in this UN fact sheet, efforts are currently falling short of this goal. Girls and women are making gains in education, but men still outnumber women in paid employment, and -- to a large degree -- in politics. In 2010, women made up only 19 percent of the world's parliamentary positions. Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's IssuesMelanne Verveer has suggested that achieving MDG 3 is a prerequisite for meeting the other Millennium Goals. You can read her remarks here. USAID's "Women in Development" program information is available here.
For MDG 4, "Reduce Child Mortality," the goal is to:
• Reduce by two thirds, between 1990 and 2015, the under-five mortality rate.
This UN fact sheet reports that a few countries defined as having high child mortality rates are on track to meet the goal, but others still face challenges. Almost nine million children each year die before their fifth birthday, with half those deaths occurring in sub-Saharan Africa. Information about some U.S. programs that are making a difference is available here.
For MDG 5, "Improve Maternal Health," the goals are to:
• Reduce by three quarters the maternal mortality ratio.
• Achieve universal access to reproductive health.
This UN fact sheet describes progress toward maternal health as significant, but slow. Nearly all the deaths are occurring in developing countries, and most would be preventable if there were access to adequate reproductive health services, equipment, supplies and skilled healthcare workers. USAID reports on recent progress here. Information on the President's Global Health Initiative is available here.
For MDG 6, "Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria, and Other Diseases," the goals are to:
• Have halted by 2015, and begun to reverse, the spread of HIV/AIDS.
• Achieve, by 2010, universal access to treatment for HIV/AIDS for all those who need it.
• Have halted by 2015, and begun to reverse, the incidence of malaria and other major diseases.
According to this UN fact sheet, there has been tangible progress toward this goal. The number of new HIV infections fell steadily from 1996 to 2008, and deaths from AIDS-related illnesses have dropped. However, more than 7,400 people around the world are infected with HIV each day, and 5,500 die daily from AIDS- related illnesses. HIV remains the leading cause of death among reproductive-age women worldwide. USAID reports on progress against infectious diseases at this site; additional information from the State Department is available here; and information from the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) is available here.
For MDG 7, "Ensure Environmental Sustainability," the goals are to:
• Integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programmes and reverse the loss of environmental resources.
• Reduce biodiversity loss, achieving, by 2010, a significant reduction in the rate of loss.
• Halve, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.
• By 2020, to have achieved a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers.
This UN fact sheet claims a mixed record of achievement: the world is on track to meet the targets for access to drinking water and has already met the goal of improving life for slum-dwellers. The benchmarks for improving sanitation and preserving biodiversity, however, may remain out of reach in the next five years. USAID presents its environmental programs here; State Department programs are here.
For MDG 8, "Develop a Global Partnership for Development," the goals are to:
• Address the special needs of least developed countries, landlocked countries and small island developing states.
• Develop further an open, rule-based, predictable, non-discriminatory trading and financial system.
• Deal comprehensively with developing countries' debt.
• In cooperation with pharmaceutical companies, provide access to affordable essential drugs in developing countries.
• In cooperation with the private sector, make available benefits of new technologies, especially information and communications.
As reported in this UN fact sheet, there's good news to report in terms of rising aid levels, increasing access to markets, tarriff reductions, lower debt burdens, and better access to information and communication technology. In terms of aid volume, the largest donors in 2009 were the United States, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan. USAID discusses global partnerships here; the State Department, here.
As the United States has set forward in its stated strategy for meeting the Millennium Development Goals, "Enormous progress has been made toward meeting the MDGs, and we must recognize, celebrate, and support these achievements. Above all, credit belongs to the citizens and governments of countries that have prioritized development and invested in their people. These achievements are also testimony to the power of successful development partnerships, and the efforts of the United Nations and other multilateral agencies, donor governments, private business, and individuals from around the world."
Going forward, the United States is promoting four principles for further progress on the MDGs. Those are to:
• Leverage innovation.
• Invest in sustainability.
• Track development outcomes, not just dollars.
• Enhance the principle and the practice of mutual accountability.
You can read more about each of these principles, and how they can advance the specific benchmarks described above, in the United States strategy document for meeting the MDGs, which is available here.
Over the next few days, Ambassador Susan Rice, the U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, will be focusing on the MDGs: working with international partners to advance their implementation, and moving towards a framework that will translate the world's highest ideals into concrete action. You can track the latest news from these meetings on her Twitter account, and don't forget to weigh in with your opinions here on DipNote.

Although a great deal so far, so if you stuck a heterogeneous group of two very clear results, and impossible conditions, suggesting a compromise to talk peace, you think of the emergency measures.

Now the expert doctors and staff work together to arrive at a new place for the patient to heal the pain and the need to provide a new direction, I think.
Goals? War pause a moment? We exist on the periphery of society to eliminate the absurdity of the missing middle class welfare and economic development efforts to resuscitate her, when you think. To do this, the denuclearization - a symbolic meaning, I think. Disappear, while the resistance system, suppose the followers - Emphasizing accepting attitude to create a society to stop stoning to induce the store I think.

Iran's leaders talk a lot about peace and have an proclivity to supporting terrorists, which makes Aminidijads words tuesday at the UNGA reek of hypocracy.
The problem when dictators calling for a "new order" in international affairs of a global government is that that notion is born from the mindset having the very hegemonic ambitions Aminidijad railed against.
So if he really believes what he's saying, they'll stop enriching and building nukes, and halt support for terrorists and stop destabilizing nations right?
Right, he's hoping the world is just to broke to pay attention, too disoreganized to put a stop to it, and lacks the will to remove this sponsor of terror from power.
Well, let's not get fooled again,...Hitler had a way with words too.

William F "Bill" Schumann
William F "Bill" Schumann, 93, passed away at sunset on Friday, Jan. 18, 2013, at his home at 1868 Miller Hill Road, Warren Pa.
Bill was born Oct. 18, 1919, in Warren, the son of the late Walter and Josephine Schumann. Bill graduated from Warren High School in 1937 and served as an enlisted man in the U.S. Army, 1938-1941. He re-enlisted in the U.S .Army in 1941 for the Officer Candidate Program and was subsequently commissioned a 2nd Lt., Armor Branch. After training stateside, Bill shipped out to Europe in late summer 1944 and was assigned as a tank platoon leader in the 37th Tank Battalion, 4th Armored Division. His battalion commander was LTC Creighton Abrams, who later became general commanding in Vietnam.
Bill was seriously wounded in action in early December, 1944, just be-fore the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge. After spending a long time in a hospital in France and later in the U.S., he was discharged from the Army and returned to Warren where he bought a home and raised a family of four sons and three daughters. He worked for Armour Meat and Sylvania and moved his family to the farm on Miller Hill in 1959. He retired from Sylvania in 1981. Bill enjoyed hunting, fishing, reading westerns and especially his family. From the time he re-tired in 1981 until his wife's passing, they en-joyed traveling in their RV. Bill was a longtime member of the St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church, and the Sugar Grove American Legion.
Bill is survived by two sons: Robert Schumann of Miller Hill and James Schumann of Rock Hill, S.C.; two daughters: Mary Ferry and her husband John of Russell, and Cecelia Jones and her husband Michael of Fentonville, N.Y.; a brother Harold, of Branford Fla.; and a sister in law, Corky Schumann, of Myrtle Beach, S.C. He also leaves 11 grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews, and great-grandchildren.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death in 1992 by his wife, Theresa Hart Schuman, whom he married on Aug. 31, 1941; two sons Willi-am, in 1980, and Jack in 1991; a daughter, Cathy DeRemer in 2010; a grand-son, Jimmy Schumann in 1981; and a sister, Joanne Buchanan in 1986; and two brothers: Robert and Walter Schumann.
Friends will be received at the Peterson Blick Funeral Home Inc., 1003 Penna. Ave. E., Warren, PA 16365 on Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013, from 6-8 p.m., and for one hour prior to a Funeral Liturgy to be held at the Funeral Home on Wednesday, Jan. 23, at 11 a.m., with the Rev. Fr. Rich Toohey, pastor, St Joseph's Roman Catholic Church, officiating.

James 'Jim' Solberg
James "Jim" Solberg, 55, of Williston, passed away at Mercy Hospital in Williston on Tuesday morning, Feb. 19, 2013.
James Solberg was born April 10, 1957, to Tom and Norvella (Gresz) Solberg, in Dickinson. He was baptized at Belfield Lutheran Church, where he was confirmed in the Lutheran faith, grew up in Belfield, and graduated from Belfield High School.
Like his brothers and sisters, as a kid Jim worked at his dad and mom's service station, Tom's Service, where he learned his mechanical skills and developed his good business sense. Helping out on Grampa and Gramma Gresz' ranch instilled in Jim his passion for horses, cattle and haying.
Jim was first married to Marianne Emch in January 1980. Together they made their home in Fryburg. They had three children, Christopher, Thomas and Erica. The couple later divorced.
His first foray into the oil industry was with Koch where he was a fleet supervisor. In 1985 Jim moved to Williston where he continued his work with Koch until they were bought out by Bear Paw Energy. In 2006, he started Safe Com LLC, a safety and compliance consulting service, which he was still operating at the time of his recent illness.
He first laid eyes on Tami Rae Farhart on June 13, 1987. They were married Aug. 11, 1990, at Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church in Williston. To the couple was born their daughter, Sheena, Jim's little sidekick.
Jim had a strong faith, and a deep respect and admiration for God's creation. He enjoyed being outdoors, hunting and fishing, planting trees or simply observing wildlife.
Jim was a consummate planner, and made lists for various projects which he would then carry out. He was also a workaholic, and much of Jim and Tami's time as a couple involved them performing work together, whether it be restoring a vehicle, working on an engine, raising cattle or feeding animals. They also enjoyed the tranquility of simply sitting together watching all the various animals out back or the snow fall outside.
Being very analytical, Jim could figure out most problems whether they be electrical, mechanical, a plumbing issue or woodworking. He brought his goal of perfection to all his work and constantly strove for continual improvement. In his safety and compliance work, he brought his strong convictions and assertiveness to the job in a disarming manner, all in an effort to ensure everyone's safety and their making it home at the end of a work day. He simply cared about his fellow workers.
Jim was a member of First Lutheran Church, where he worked the dessert table during the lutefisk dinner, the American Quarter Horse Association and the Delta Waterfowlers.
He delighted in simple random acts of kindness, and found happiness in his life by giving it to others. Jim's greatest treasure was his family. He dearly loved his wife, kids, mother, his siblings and extended family and friends
Surviving Jim are: his mother, Norvella, of Belfield; wife, Tami, of Williston; his children, son, Christopher (Alanna) Solberg, of Fargo, and Christopher's daughter, Emilee Solberg, of Fergus Falls, Minn., son, Tom Solberg and his son, Bryzick, of Williston, daughter, Erica (Andy) Kessel and their daughter, Natalia, of Belfield, and daughter, Sheena Solberg (Miles Jessop) of Williston; his goddaughter, Amber Hofstad; his siblings, Tim (Ame) Solberg, Joyce (Dennis) Reisenauer, Rhonda (Darrell) Tooley and Ken (LuAnn) Solberg, all of Belfield; his sister-in-law, Sherry Solberg, of Belfield; numerous nieces and nephews, Ryan, Kimberly, Shawn, Amber, Alexis, Brooke, Tori, Justin, Laci, Bradley, Danielle, Rachael, Braden, and Carson; his father- and mother-in-law, Denny and Sandra Farhart, of Williston; his brother-in-law, Brad (Amy) Farhart, of Stanley; and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
He was preceded in death by: his father, Tom; and brother, Keith Solberg.
His funeral service will be celebrated Monday, Feb. 25, at 2 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in Williston. Rev. Martin Mock will officiate.
Interment will follow in Our Savior's Lutheran Churchyard Cemetery, rural Williston.
Friends are welcome to visit (www.eversonfh.com) to share memories of Jim or leave condolences for his family. Friends may also call at the Everson Funeral Home of Williston on Sunday, from 1 to 5 p.m., and at the church on Monday for the hour preceding the service.
The Everson Funeral Home of Williston is caring for the family.

Fed Implements More Easing, Sets Unemployment Target
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The Federal Reserve said Wednesday it would purchase longer-term Treasury bonds and attached a specific unemployment rate target to end the current federal funds rate.
The Federal Open Market Committee -- the policy-making arm of the central bank -- said it would begin to purchase $45 billion of longer-term Treasury bonds per month for an open-ended period, and that it would keep rates low at least for as long as the U.S. unemployment rate remained above 6.5%.
Many economists had anticipated the Fed would implement some sort of additional purchases to replace the expiring Operation Twist program.
The Fed also announced that it would be open to inflation ticking above its 2% target.
The central bank's decision to tie policy to the unemployment rate is unprecedented.
A majority of the members voted in favor of the action, except for Jeffrey Lacker, who "opposed the asset purchase program and the characterization of the conditions under which an exceptionally low range for the federal funds rate will be appropriate," according to the statement. Lacker often has voted against more accommodative monetary policy.
Below is the full text of the FOMC statement:
Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in October suggests that economic activity and employment have continued to expand at a moderate pace in recent months, apart from weather-related disruptions. Although the unemployment rate has declined somewhat since the summer, it remains elevated. Household spending has continued to advance, and the housing sector has shown further signs of improvement, but growth in business fixed investment has slowed. Inflation has been running somewhat below the Committee's longer-run objective, apart from temporary variations that largely reflect fluctuations in energy prices. Longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable.
Consistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee seeks to foster maximum employment and price stability. The Committee remains concerned that, without sufficient policy accommodation, economic growth might not be strong enough to generate sustained improvement in labor market conditions. Furthermore, strains in global financial markets continue to pose significant downside risks to the economic outlook. The Committee also anticipates that inflation over the medium term likely will run at or below its 2 percent objective.
To support a stronger economic recovery and to help ensure that inflation, over time, is at the rate most consistent with its dual mandate, the Committee will continue purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month. The Committee also will purchase longer-term Treasury securities after its program to extend the average maturity of its holdings of Treasury securities is completed at the end of the year, initially at a pace of $45 billion per month. The Committee is maintaining its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities in agency mortgage-backed securities and, in January, will resume rolling over maturing Treasury securities at auction. Taken together, these actions should maintain downward pressure on longer-term interest rates, support mortgage markets, and help to make broader financial conditions more accommodative.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Making Sense of Earnings Season
This program last aired Nov. 2, 2012.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- "I want to show you a new way to use earnings season," Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers, dedicating his entire show Monday to helping individual investors navigate the overwhelming nature of the busiest time on Wall Street.
Cramer explained that it's important to put earnings and their accompanying conference calls into context -- earnings alone can't be relied on to predict a stock's future behavior as it once was.
In today's complex markets, Cramer said, earnings are only one piece of the puzzle that determines where a stock is headed after it reports.
Earnings season is a great time for investors to re-evaluate their portfolios and decide which stocks they should trim and which they need to buy more of. Earnings should allow investors to "hone their thinking" on which stocks are performing and which ones aren't.
Cramer said that when he looks at a company's earnings, he first looks at the predictive value of those earnings. Did the company beat even the highest analyst estimates? If so, those analysts are likely to be raising their estimates soon.
Did the company produce a genuine beat with higher revenue? If so, then the company is on track. But if the earnings came from trick accounting like buying back stock, favorable tax rates or aggressive cost-cutting, then those earnings may not last.
Cramer told investors not to rely on just a company's price earnings, or P/E ratio as a measure of whether a stock is cheap or expensive. He said investors must always factor in growth by using the PEG ratio, which is a company's multiple divided by its growth rate.
Cramer said he's willing to pay up to twice the PEG ratio for a company that's growing. Those with PEG ratios below 1 are super-cheap, assuming there are no underlying issues.
The Sector Is Key
Cramer said his next step towards evaluating a company's earnings is to look at its sector.
In the old days, a company's sector could account for 50% of its performance. But in today's markets riddled with exchange-traded funds that lump similar stocks together, a company's sector is more important than ever.
Look at the banks, for example, said Cramer. When the financial crisis began it didn't matter whether a bank was doing well or not. If it was a bank, its stock was headed lower regardless. Cramer said the key is figuring out which stocks in a sector, if any, can buck that trend.
When the retail sector began to come back into favor in 2009, Cramer said he immediately gravitated towards the discounters, the dollar stores in particular. Why? Because he knew that stocks like Dollar Tree (DLTR) and Dollar General (DG) already had earnings momentum, so when money began returning to the retail group the dollar stores would shine.

AccountManagerPlugin: Use new account approval feature to ban accounts, refs #843 and #8595.
While simple, this might be an effective counter-measure against spammer
registrations, because intentionally it's rather hard to spot the difference
between an approved authenticated session and one with pending approval.
So I forsee more wasted resources on attacker's side to figure out, why
one still fails to spam the site even after successful registration, and
that is certainly a good thing.
Note: Due to its implementation banning is instantly effective and will
prevent even authenticated sessions from doing more than a user could in an
anonymous session, unlike the account lock provided by AccountGuard.
That wouldn't prevent authenticated sessions from continuing indefinitely,
at least until next authentication time, and this might be a rather long time,
if persistant sessions had been allowed before.

AccountManagerPlugin: Finally remove historic password_file option from file stores, refs #10734 and #10735.
Likewise 'password_format', another depreciated option, is removed too.
Both changes have been prepared for a rather long time now, mostly to allow
for seamless store chaining. Equivalent options have been introduced before:
- 'password_file' - depreciated in favor of store-specific options
- 'htpasswd_file' for HtPasswdStore's password file in htpasswd format
- 'htdigest_file' for HtDigestStore's password file in htdigest format
- 'password_format' - obsoleted by a combination of
- 'password_store' for direct store selection including store chaining
- store-specific options for hash type selection, i.e.:
- 'htpasswd_hash_type' for HtPasswdStore
- 'db_htpasswd_hash_type' for SessionStore with IPasswordHashMethod HtPasswdHashMethod (selected by 'hash_method' in turn)

Keeping 'no empty password' for user education, but only showing it on password
validation failure. But the story has only just started:
Additionally AccountModule did not check for password change success on
forced password change, unconditionally removing permission lock-down and
reporting password update even on failure. Thanks to Ryan J. Ollos for testing
and providing a detailed description of this behavior.
Closing yet another way to bypass a forced password change by just repeating
the old password as new password, what isn't accepted anymore now.
Admin users may continue to create password-less accounts. Still successful
authentication with acct_mgr.LoginModule required another change to prevent
unconditionally failed logins because of the empty password.

Council, New Ulm Steel debate city noise rule
NEW ULM – The New Ulm City Council and New Ulm Steel and Recycling held a robust debate about the merit of New Ulm's noise ordinance rules Tuesday during a hearing on whether the city should order noise control measures for New Ulm Steel's new industrial metal shredder.
The machine in question was built earlier this year to shred everything from toasters to school buses, and sort out the valuable metal to sell in bulk.
Several property owners around New Ulm Steel have complained to city officials about the noise and vibration caused by the shredder's operations. Additionally, there have been several call about large explosions that occurred inside the shredder during its operations. Smaller explosion are part of the shredder's natural process due to nature of the objects and material being demolished.
The council responded by ordering tests of the shredder for violations of city code. New Ulm Steel was found to violate the noise ordinance with the shredder, but was cleared of any vibration violations.
During the council's discussion Tuesday about how the shredder could be brought into compliance, New Ulm Steel owner Josh Luneburg redirected the discussion into a debate about the noise ordinance itself.
He argued he should not be forced to hire an engineering firm to determining noise reduction changes he should implement because he did not fail the City's requirements on decibel levels, but instead simply the noise frequency levels, or hertz. He said that if the hertz levels were ignored, his shredder was in compliance. He said that instead, other equipment like his trucks and his crane, which are similarly used by many other New Ulm businesses and the City itself, would be in violation. He said it would be unreasonable to expect use of this normal equipment to not be allowed, especially if he was the only one singled out have to make changes. He also noted that New Ulm's noise level requirements were much stricter than MPCA requirements and nearly any other Minnesota city. Additionally, he said the city was likely the only one to have the added requirements about hertz levels. He said the ordinance would need to be revised because it would shut down most New Ulm businesses and would be nearly impossible meet even with noise reductions measures.
City Attorney Hugh Nierengarten and City Manager Brian Gramentz challenged some of Luneburg's assertions, such as pointing out that hertz levels mattered even at acceptable decibels levels. Gramentz explained that the decibel levels of a normal conversation could become a nuisance on par with nails scratching a chalk board if the hertz levels, or frequency of sound, was beyond acceptable levels.
Nierengarten also pointed out the noise ordinance mentioned that the deciding factor in violation is whether it becomes "objectionable" to the surround properties.
Gramentz added that the state's noise ordinance also carried variables that allowed business to exceed the decibel levels for small, select amounts of time "to meet the ebb and flow of business." He said the key factor was that the sound was not continuous and frequent in its occurrence.
The council members discussed the different aspects of the issue. The consensus was that New Ulm Steel needs to take some action to address the serious complaints of surrounding landowners, and that the noise ordinance should be reviewed to see if it is too harsh.
Luneburg said he is willing to work on the shredder, but felt that the objections were only due to the shredder being a new noise. He said his normal operations may actually be the louder noise source. He said he will only act if the Council provides "a clear, objective" criteria for any modifications to the machine. He said he was unwilling to spend money on changes that may not bring him into compliance, or might unfairly single him out. He added that he objected to putting the shredder in a building as a solution, since it made the operations much more dangerous of his employees.
Gramentz noted that New Ulm Steel has already taken several modifications of the shredder to make is safer and address noise in small amounts prior to Tuesday's discussion.
The Council settled on ordering City officials to investigate how several other Minnesota towns regulate both their shredders and their noise ordinances before provide a report the the Council. It also ordered City officials to interview the property owners complaining about New Ulm Steel to develop an objective criteria of what they specifically objected to with the business. Luneburg was instructed to consider potential modification he could make to his machine or grounds to offset noise issues. The Council will pick the issue back up at a later meeting.

Apple Could Move 'Intel Outside'
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple(AAPL) is reportedly thinking about moving away from Intel(INTC) chips in its Mac line of computers, which could be a serious detriment to the world's largest chipmaker. The impact wouldn't be felt for a few years though, said analysts.
Bloomberg reported Apple is looking into moving away from Intel chips, The rumor isn't new, said Societe Generale analyst Peter Knox in a research report. Apple would not switch over for a few years, as processors using technology from ARM Holdings (ARMH) aren't able to produce the power performance of Intel's chips just yet.
"We believe that such a switch could be possible but even this latest speculation suggests that this is only a 2017+ prospect. In addition, the processing power performance needed for Apple PC products would require a significant step up in ARM core processing power which could compromise its power/performance benefits, particularly vs Intel's new 8W Haswell processor," KNow wrote in a research report. He rates ARM shares sell with a 370 pence price target.
Apple and Intel have a relationship which stretches back several years, with Intel CEO Paul Otellini dressing up in a white suit at an Apple conference in 2005 alongside Steve Jobs, announcing the deal. Yet, Apple has always moved towards owning the entire ecosystem, one reason why Intel does not provide processors for Apple's iOS devices.
Piper Jaffray analyst Gus Richard said he believes the move to vertical integration, in which companies design their own chips, is happening more and more, citing rumors that Amazon(AMZN) would buy Texas Instruments' (TXN) OMAP unit, and perhaps the reason Google(GOOG) bought Motorola.
"All these datapoints are clear evidence of a shift away from merchant silicon to internally designed silicon," Richard said in his research note. He rated ARM overweight with a $33 price target, and Intel neutral with a $19 price target.
The other reason, and perhaps the more important reason, is that -x86 architecture inherently consumes more power than ARM-designs. Smartphones and tablets such as the iPhone and iPad have strong battery life, but that would be cut considerably if Intel chips were put into these devices.
ARM recently announced 64-bit chips, the Cortex-A53 and -A57, which could provide the catalyst for Apple designing its own chips for its Mac line. BNP Paribas analyst Jerome Ramel said he believes the 64-bit chips will allow ARM to address the server and computer markets, which demand higher performance chip sets.
"The 64-bit processors were the missing products for ARM to be credible in the PC/Servers space," Ramel wrote in his note. "Now ARM has all the tools to address the PC/Servers markets and needs the software tool ecosystem to be developed." He rated ARM neutral with a 670 pence price target.

Editor for this issue: Naomi Ogasawara <naomilinguistlist.org>
GENERAL - ----- A couple of weeks ago, I posted a request for feedback on a number of issues relating to the section on French in the Handbook of the IPA. Several people have replied both with feedback and a request for a summary, which I give below. My thanks to all those who replied, and in particular to the following for their very detailed responses: {a} Roger Billerey <billereyucla.edu> {b} Aurelien Max <am350eng.cam.ac.uk> {c} Chantal Rittaud-Hutinet <chantal.rittauduniv-savoie.fr> {d} Joaquim de Carvalho <jbrandaoext.jussieu.fr> {e} Marc Bavant <marc.bavanttcc.thomson-csf.com> {f} Johannes Reese <reesejuni-muenster.de> {g} Douglas Walker <dcwalkerucalgary.ca> In the summary below, letters in braces refer to respondents who specifically advocated a particular view; note that their absence does not necessarily mean that they uphold a contrary view. RESPONSES - ------- (1) There was large, though (surprisingly?) not unanimous, agreement that the nasalised vowel in e.g. 'matin' is closer in timbre to [ae~] than [E~] {acdg}, though all comments referred to perception/formant structure rather than articulation. One younger speaker made the point that the tongue seemed _lower_ in the mouth for the first vowel of 'intention' than for 'attention' {b}; an older speaker made the point that if there existed the word 'ettention' (with [E-]), it would be closer to 'intention' than 'attention' {e}. Two (non-native) respondents wondered if a [a~]/[E~] difference in timbre might operate depending on morphological position of the vowel {f}. One respondent recommended Hansen (1998), referenced below {g}. I have it on order, and will summarise any relevant information. As it stands, then, it seems questionable whether the Handbook's claim that "the vowel [E~] is produced with tongue and lip position very similar to its oral counterpart [E]" is likely to be true for most speakers, and even if it were, it seems unclear whether this fact is something that represents the way speakers perceptualise the two vowels and/or something that should be represented in the transcription. (2) All those who commented specifically agreed that the transcription of 'abeille' as [abej] is probably simply wrong, and that [e] does not occur in a closed syllable[1]. (3) All those who spefically commented agreed that the second schwa in 'serait regarde' [sR-] is (almost) certainly a typo {abcdeg}. (4) Similarly for the anomolous transcription of the [o~] vowel in 'renonca', it was attributed to either a typo {acde} or something unknown and at best questionable {bg}. (5) All those who specifically commented could see no reason for the lengthened [i] in "ils sont tombe's" {bcefg}. On the subject of [a], there was more diversity, though all agreed that the transcription given in the Handbook is probably wrong. Several respondents argued for [aa] rather than [a:], apparently on perceptual/articulatory rather than purely theoretical grounds {bcef}. FURTHER ISSUES AND RESEARCH - ------------------------- A couple of other issues were raised in passing which I'd like to mention here and give my opinion on. Firstly, it has been pointed out that the transcription given is somewhat inconsistent in its treatment of enchainement/liaison consonants ("quant ils ont" [kA~t ilzO~] but "voyageur echauffe'" [vwAja3oe Re]). Although I would disagree that the consonant should necessarily be transcribed on the beginning of the following word (as insisted upon by many textbooks/ teachers), since (a) it is questionable whether the consonant can be uniquely identified with a single syllable position at a particular stage in the derivation; and (b) the transcription is not on the whole giving information about syllabification in any case, the difference in transcription does here seem somewhat anomalous. Particularly as it is specifically [R] which a priori seems more likely to show some surface effect on the end of the first word in, say, hesitation "voyageur... echauffe'". Secondly, the matter of vowel lengthening before certain final consonants has been raised. For example, the final word of the passage transcribed, 'fort', is given without a length mark on the vowel. Traditionally, it is assumed that vowels are lengthened before tone-unit-final closed syllables whose final consonantal position is filled entirely by voiced fricative(s) (and that certain vowels are prone to lengthening in any tone-unit-final closed syllable). I have personally been unconvinced for some time that this assumption is actually borne out by the speech patterns of many (younger?) speakers, either simply because the lengthening doesn't take place to the same degree or with the same consistency as has traditionally been assumed, or else because a process of enchainement moves the fricative (or final consonant) from the end of the tone unit to the beginning of the next (this wouldn't necessarily vie with the phonological constraint mentioned, but it would raise questions as to why this enchainement across tune unit boundaries was taking place). Any comments on these two issues would be welcomed. Finally, in light of many of the issues raised in this discussion, I would be keen to carry out some informal spectrographic analyses at some point to try and concretise some of the suggestions/ suspicions. I would be interested in hearing from anybody who might be able to assist in making recordings of native speakers. I stress that at the moment, I envisage this on a fairly informal basis (e.g. recordings made with a reasonable-quality sound card and microphone and e-mailed to me as a WAV file would be fine). If anybody thinks they might be willing to help out, then perhaps they could e-mail me. If I can get enough recordings, then I'll be happy to collate/analyse. Neil Coffey 10 December 1999 NOTES - --- [1] A possible exception that springs to mind is the loanword '(e-)mail', which seems to allow both [e] and [E]. It would be interesting to see whether speakers admitted [e] in closed syllable as a plausible pronunciation of other loans in cases where the normal pronunciation avoided it (cf. "Game Gear", normally pronounced [gEm3iR] or "Game Boy", normally pronounced [gambOj]).

My eyes be red generally while working on computer and when go to open atmosphere. Please provide permanent solution to cure the problem. Ayurvedic or homeopathic treatment may be suggested.
Visual disorders are seen to develop in school going children and should be taken care of with utmost care as neglecting such disorders may affect their learning ability. They might find it hard to adjust and cope in school. Some of the common visual disorders which children are affected with are mentioned below. Read more to find out about them:
Amblyopia (Lazy Eye)
Amblyopia is a medical condition in which an eye has developed poor vision. It is also known as 'Lazy Eye'. It occurs when the vision in one eye is significantly better than the other. Amblyopia occurs due to strabismus or misaligned eyes.
Conjunctivitis or 'Pink Eye' occurs in children due to allergic reaction which is not contagious or due to bacterial or viral infections which are very contagious. If infected with conjunctivitis, it is advisable to stay at home to avoid spreading the infection.
Myopia is also known as nearsightedness. In this condition, the cornea is steep and the rays of light fall in front of the retina. This leads closer objects to look clear but far off objects to look blurred.
Hyperopia implies farsightedness. In this condition, the eye is shorter than normal hence the rays of light cannot focus clearly on the retina. This results in objects close at hand appear blurred. Reading a book or threading a needle becomes difficult.
Astigmatism is a condition in which both near and far off images appear blurred. In this condition, the cornea which is naturally circular is stretched in either horizontal or vertical direction. Astigmatism can occur along with myopia or hyperopia.
Blocked tear duct
When the tear ducts are partially or completely obstructed, it hampers the drainage of tears and results in a chronically, watery infected eye. You are advised to consult an ophthalmologist if such a condition occurs.
Orbital Cellulitis
Cellulitis generally occurs due to an eyelid infection or an upper respiratory infection. Cellulitis includes swelling of the eyelids and fever. It is a serious medical condition and it is recommended to visit a doctor for consultation.
If you are diabetic then it is important that you visit your ophthalmologist for regular check-ups. Diabetes is known to be one of main causes for blindness across all age groups. If you suffer from bouts of blurred vision then it is not likely due to a long term vision problem. It is temporary and usually occurs due to fluctuating blood sugar levels in the body.
How diabetes affects your eyes?
The lens of your eyes can swell if you are a diabetic, and this can impair your ability to see causing blurry vision. In order to rectify this problem, it is important for you to get your blood sugar levels under optimal levels. This entire procedure of reducing blood sugar levels may take three months or more.
Eye problems that are caused by diabetes
The major eye problems that can occur due to diabetes are
- Cataract: Cataract occurs when the lens of your eyes become foggy or cloudy. Although cataract mostly occurs to people who are middle aged or above sixty, you can get affected by this disorder at an earlier age if you are diabetic. Also, the deterioration or clouding of the lens progresses at a much faster rate than usual. Cataracts lead to an inability to focus as the retina is covered by cloudy layer.
- Glaucoma: This is another disorder that can occur due to diabetes. This is characterized by the buildup of pressure in the eye due to the fluids within it not draining properly. This intense pressure damages the nerves and blood vessels in the eyes, thus impairing your ability to see.
- Diabetic Retinopathy: Diabetic retinopathy is a disorder characterized by damage to the vessels in the retina that carry blood. It can occur if you have either of the type 2 or type 1 diabetes. If not treated in time it can lead to blindness.
If you have a history of diabetes or even borderline diabetic tendencies, it is highly advisable to constantly check your blood sugar levels and also get your eye checked at regular intervals, especially if you feel even the minutest vision problems.
Conjunctivitis, also known as pinkeye, is a very common eye disease. Though it is not harmful, anyone suffering from this infection must consult a doctor and receive treatment so that it can be cured in 7 to ten days.
Conjunctivitis can be treated through a range of medical treatments. Usually, one goes to an optometrist but have you tried consulting a homeopathic for a change?
Advantages of Homeopathy
Natural medicine: Homeopathy is a natural form of medicine and is considered to be an alternative form of medicine. It would not aggravate the problem, but it would find a quick solution to relieve you from it. Allopathic medicines contain certain chemicals and drugs which might not be suitable for many individuals.
Can fight all the symptoms of conjunctivitis: This disease has some common symptoms. Some of them are redness, swelling of the eye, yellow discharges, water flow from the eyes, and others. These symptoms can be well managed by homeopathic medicines as well. These medicines work to heal the root cause of the disease and cure it.
You recover quickly: Usually it takes around a week to t10 days for conjunctivitis to completely heal. For this period, it is advised that the affected person stays indoors to avoid contamination and spread of the disease. Adhering to homeopathy can actually reduce the time span of this disease, thereby completely healing you in no time and so that you can go about your daily routine.
No side effects: Most medicines are made of drugs and chemicals and have various side effects. But with homeopathy being a naturally sourced medicinal option, the chances of having side effects are less. However, it is advisable to know beforehand if homeopathy suits you or not. If it does, then there are lesser chances of side effects.
The above factors have made it clear that conjunctivitis can be easily treated with homeopathic medicines. In case homeopathy suits you, then it might be a good idea for you to follow this course of medicine to treat this disease.
Homeopathic Medicines For Conjunctivitis
Here are the 5 best Homeopathic medicines for allergic conjunctivitis-
Apis Mel
Argentum Nitricum
The dosage and the exact medicine varies from patient to patient and depends on the severity of the problem. This does not in any way mean that only these 5 homeopathic medicines that can be used in conjunctivitis. There are dozens of other medicines that are required at times depending on individual symptoms of the patient. It is always recommended to consult a specialized homeopath before taking any such medication.

Diabetes can wreak havoc on the eye and the foot. Proper care is necessary in order to refrain from any serious consequences. It can damage the blood vessels and the nerves of the feet resulting in numbness and permanent disability. Some of the alarming foot symptoms include bruises, cuts, cracked skin and hard spots. Some of the common measures that need to be taken for foot include checking the temperature sensation of the foot by immersing it in hot water, drying the feet gently in between the toes and using agents such as lotion, lanolin, and petroleum jelly.
Some of the other preventive measure includes cutting the nails when they are young and straight to ensure no injury to the foot takes place. It should be ensured the toe is not touched by the nail of the toe. A pumice stone can be used to get rid of the corns immediately after a bath. No medicated pads or sharp razors should be utilised to cut corns. The feet should be soaked in warm water before trimming nails.
A shoe should be put on at all times to save the feet. The shoe sole should be thoroughly checked for foreign objects such as stones and nails to ensure that the foot is not hurt. Tight shoes should be strictly avoided in order to refrain from soreness and blisters. Dry and clean socks should be put up to ensure the foot is clean. For people living in cold area, wearing thick socks should be practised. This will help the foot protect from cold. Finally, a doctor should be called in case there are any visible signs of swelling, redness, cracks, pain or sensation of burning.
Too much blood sugar can cause harm to the eye in four ways: It can cause damage to the retina, lens, optic nerve and vitreous gel. There could be serious repercussions of diabetes to the eye including low vision and complete loss of vision. Diabetes blocks the retina and is capable of cutting off the total supply of oxygen.
Some of the common symptoms of retina related problems include double vision, a pressure in one eye, problems in corner vision, flashing lights, pain in the eye, blank spots etc. A simple check up by an oculist can reveal any eye problems related to diabetes.
An ophthalmologist can treat the diabetes-related eye problem by medicine that blocks the protein responsible for fluid leakage and blood vessel growth. He can also go for laser treatment to treat macular edema. Even scatter laser treatments are also used for this purpose. If all else fails a doctor chooses to perform a procedure known as vitrectomy.
