I agree, there is alot of delving into the characters but at the same time the way they interact makes them seem very pale
other than that, the storyline and all that is rocketing off its head

One thing I was complaining about was that the Ark-Arc was pretty long....but now it's over. The characters aren't that two-sided. Oka,y some of them, but the main characters aren't.
The story could have finished after the Noah's Arc, arc, its true. Well I thought it was coming to a close until they added extra parts and now more Noah will make appearence and stuff. Its should make us go "WTF OMG" after the next two chapters or something to reel us (the reader) back in otherwise it may be an issue.
Yes...but it would be against the tradition of the Shounen-Jump-Manga xD
SJ-manga usually tend to have 300+ chapters, so stopping at around 120 would be....bad.
Hey its great to see such a good number of replies and a pretty broard range of responses to my thread. Havent been posting myself for a long while but i have been keeping track of the thread. To tell you the truth i do like this series, quite a bit actually, but i don't really like the direction its heading. Looking back at the earlier chapters, where i really got pulled into the series, the art has seriously changed a lot. That for me being a bad thing. The art now seems...jumbled..(for want of a better word), theres just too much unessisary background art...what happened to the days when the atmosphere was so effectively established with clear, bold, defined drawings (chapter 14 is a pretty good example of what i mean). Character interaction is still a little weak for me still. On the plus side the storyline seems to be going is a positive direction and i can only hope for the best. Cross is being drawn better but the drawings dont have the clear cut characteristics of a memorable main character, so mayb its a good thing we do usually see too much of him. Last chapter (chapter 135) seemed a lil too cartoony and dull for my tastes but the 2nd half of it wasnt too bad. Well thats my two cents for now. Ill try to post my afterthoughts on every release chapter from now on as long as you guys keep coming back for it. And remember this is open discussion, be my guest and take me down with whatever comeback you have.
About the Art: It has improved a lot! It fits teh character better in my opinion. Allen doesn't look too young anymore and not that much girlish like in the beginning. Kanda looks more manly. Road looks cuter now, unlike in the beginning where she looked kind of creepy and almost like a boy (even with the skirt). The BG is wonderful and having much doesn't mean you have to pay much attention to it. It's rather for the whole impression, and that's very well done.
About...chapter 135: You know after such a serious arc where some of the main characters almost died and an important and very interesting plot twist came you just NEED some comedy relief. Of course it isn't as interesting as when the plot really is going on, but without comedy I'd it'd be dull. DGM is a serious but not entirely dark manga.
There, I argued xD
=P thanks for that. Waiting on the new chapter so i can post something a lil more meaningful. And wud it kill ya blud to make a comment of some sort? xD thanx for the replies guys.

I actually liked this one (chapter 136) but i wuda liked more involvement from the other generals. Thats all i got for now. Enjoy the latest chapter.

in the anime, the fighting's getting stale... yeah, seeing lavi/bookman/crowley fight zillions of akuma is great, seeing lenalee's dress riding up her most beautiful thigh is raunchy, but...
its kinda boring. the fire cyclone practically win anyone else, and so do Allen's gun innocence. i hope i can see some interesting fights, like fighting amidst bamboos? lol
Well its a shonen you really can't expect much in the character development area, they're always built on the tried and true archetypes(though I have to say it does have some of the more fleshed out characters I've seen in a shonen)
The art does seem particularly "hectic" at times which can annoy as it makes you sit there having to analyze the panel
However I believe that its pros(wonderful storytelling and beautiful art) make up for said flaws.

The reason for this policy: people sometimes come into forums to promote their web sites by creating lots of links to them, hoping that will raise their search engine rankings. On some sites I have found this can badly degrade discussion, since those people aren't primarily interested in the discussion, they are more interested in creating a lot of posts that link to their site.
We do not want B-Greek to be used in that way.

The Huntington Glee Club has been named the Grand Marshal of the Huntington Heritage Days.
In the fall of 1919 at Huntington High School, music teacher, Every Johnson, organized a group of his male music students into a chorus. They became quite popular singing at school and civic functions throughout the area. This group became the nucleus of what was to become known as the Huntington Glee Club. The members of the first group of singers were: Lavar Black, Orlo Furlong, Merrill Furlong, Emmitt Green, Lee Guymon, Jared Ipson, Eldred Johnson, Myron Johnson, Rulon Johnson (Shine), Elwood Leonard, Perry McArthur, Ted R. Nielson, Frank Pritchett, William Rowley and Perry P. Wakefield. The conductor was Every Johnson and the accompanist was Verda Leonard.
This group performed together for a couple of seasons very successfully, but to improve the sound quality, more voices would be required, so male singers in the area were invited to join with the established group. The number of voices doubled and the Huntington Glee Club was born. This club has now survived for more than 83 years.
Names of the members of this group known as the Huntington Glee Club listed alphabetically are: Lavar Black, Eben Fowler, Orlo Furlong, Merrill Furlong, Charles Green, Emmitt Green, William Green, Lee guymon, Neal Howard Jared Ipson, Eldred Johnson, Myron Johnson, Elwood Leonard, Arley Marshall, Sam Mathie, Perry McArthur, G.S. Nielson (Bud), Ted R. Nielson, Frank Pritchett, William Rowley, Ray Smith, Amos Wakefield, Clint, Wakefield and Perry P. Wakefield. Bert Leitz was the violinist, Verda Leonard was the accompanist and Evert Johnson was the conductor. Other members were Zachary Farr, Rulon Johnson (Shine) and Bert Thomas.
This group of young men together with their fine accompanist, Verda Leonard, furnished musical entertainment throughout Carbon and Emery counties. They became quite popular wherever they performed and as a result were much in demand for concerts, shows, fund raisers and various civic and church programs.
For the first five years, the glee club was under the sole direction of its founder, Evert Johnson; but in 1925 he was to leave Huntington for work in Arizona.
In the spring of 1926, Perry Wakefield became the ward chorister and choir director. Soon he would get the glee club together once again and take over its direction. Later that year Perry was called to serve on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Kentucky and would be gone for two years. During this absence, Bert Thomas would become the glee club's director until Perry returned in 1928. During this interim, the glee club lost some of its cohesiveness. Members formed quartets or sang solo as well as with the whole group, but upon Wakefield's return home in 1928, Bert Thomas relinquished the leadership back to Wakefield-a position he was to hold for some 37 years until his life was ended in a terrible accident in 1965. Nearly half the total life of the Huntington Glee Club.
During the tenure of leadership of Bert Thomas and Perry Wakefield, the glee club grew to as many as 40 members by 1950. During the 50s, Errol Litster would become an alternate director with Perry Wakefield. This would be the busiest years for the Glee Club since its inception. In 1950, the club president was Ted R. Nielson. Today his son, Hal, is the club president. Tradition has been an ongoing thing over the years.
The glee club has traveled to several cities and towns, not just in Carbon and Emery counties, but to Mt. Pleasant, Nephi, even as far away as Bountiful.
In Bountiful they created such a sensation that one of Salt Lake City's premier music companies, Daynes Music Company, publicized them throughout the Rocky Mountain area in the company publication, the Melodian as a group of artists giving outstanding community service far out of proportion for the size of the town of their origin.
Glee Club members will ride in the Huntington Heritage Days Parade at 10 a.m. on July 4.
Bryce Wilson is the conductor of the club at this time.

Hi everyone! Just thought I'd share some fun news. It's August 25: Four months till Christmas!
So, today I am starting to rehearse some Christmas music for solo piano to be recorded hopefully by Thanksgiving weekend. I'm a self-taught keyboardist and I've been playing for about 10 years or so. I'll be recording the music in my "poor man's" studio in my home and I will definitely share them online when they are completed!
Also, I don't know if I will do this for the album, but I thought that maybe someone in this forum who is a fine lyricist would like to collaborate with me in turning your ideas into an actual song. I've always wanted to write my own Christmas music, but I just don't excel at writing nice lyrics. So... perhaps someone out there would like to work together...??? Just a thought!

Cute but not so comfortable
"I decided to purchase these since I own a high heel boot by the same company that I love. I wore them recently and realized I should have ordered a size larger due to the pointed toe. Overall they were somewhat comfortable and definitely stylish! I received lots of compliments. I would recommend them to wear for short periods. They began to hurt after a few hours due to the narrow fit."

Very comfy and stylish but made of poor materials
"VERY comfortable. Bandolino shoes are always comfy on my feet. I have several pairs of shoes made by Bandolino. This is the first time that I felt they used cheap materials. As someone else wrote- the material on the heel started peeling off on mine as well. Futhermore, the material on the toe of my shoes are peeling off as well! I can no longer wear them without feeling embarrassed. That's a shame since I only had them for 1 season. I have other bandolino shoes from years ago that I still wear."

The Supremacy of the Son of God
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him,

Finding Federal Employment: Appreciation and Insight for Veterans
At the USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), we employ several veterans from different branches of the armed services.

Blanchard, Christine H. — Rudyard Kipling Book and Pamphlet
In 1997, Christine Blanchard donated to Special Collections, General Library, University of California, Davis a collection of Rudyard Kipling's published works.

A notable part of the collection is an assemblage of the first Indian editions of Kipling's earliest books, which were published while the young Kipling was working as a newspaper editorial assistant in British Colonial India.
Other works in the Blanchard Collection include the scarce first edition of Kipling's first collection of short stories, Plain Stories from the Hills; a complete set of The Indian Railway Series books; Michael Sadleir's copies of the first editions of The Jungle Book and The Second Jungle Book, and a copy of the rare suppressed edition, Letters of Marque.

An apparent kidnapping took place in Huntington in the early morning hours of Oct. 3. At 2:20 a.m. two Emery County deputies were approached in the Hart's parking lot by three Huntington residents. The female subject, informed the deputy that her 17 year old daughter had been taken against her will by two male subjects,19 and 21 years of age. The two subjects had come to the home of the 17 year old girl at approximately 2 a.m.
The mother expressed her frustration to the subjects at the late hour and suspected they could be drunk. The daughter went outside to talk to the subjects where she reported they invited her to "come party." The girl said she could not go and to go away. The girl then reported that the male subject grabbed her and put her over his shoulder and took her to his vehicle. The other male shut the vehicle door so the girl couldn't get out. The girl reported the subject driving was making sexual advances toward her and drove her to a Huntington residence.
The girl's parents seeing her being put into the vehicle, got dressed and headed over to the house where they thought the male subject had been staying. Upon the arrival of the girl's parents at the home, it is reported the male subjects ran out the back door and the girl ran out front to her parents. The parents and the girl then began looking for the deputies to make a report of what went on.
The deputies went to the residence to talk to the male subjects. One male subject was placed in handcuffs until the story could be figured out. The deputy questioned those at the home to determine the identity of the other male subject. With a description by the girl another male subject was apprehended. The two male subjects were transported to the Emery County jail.
The subjects have been charged with felony kidnapping.

The Kings outscored the Brumbies four tries to two to claim a dramatic 28-all draw at Canberra Stadium on Friday.
The Kings outscored the Brumbies four tries to two to claim a dramatic 28-all draw at Canberra Stadium on Friday.
Kings number eight Cornell du Preez score his second try of the game after the final hooter before Demetri Catrakilis slotted the conversion to seal the biggest upset of the Super Rugby season so far.
The result sees the Brumbies lose their lead in the overall standings (on points difference to the Chiefs) while the Kings climb up to twelfth.
The Brumbies led 19-14 at half time but, contrary to all expectations, the Kings took the lead early in the second period after a wonderfully executed try, the visitors' third of the evening.
Five penalties from fly-half Christian Lealiifano were enough to give the Brumbies what had looked like a match-winning lead until the last moments.
Impressive with their physicality and well-organised defence, the Kings never allowed the Brumbies to get their attack going and pounced on opportunities when they were presented.
The opening quarter went according to script as the Brumbies cruised to a 13-0 lead thanks to tries from Henry Speight and Joe Tomane.
But the team from Port Elizabeth weren't prepared to roll over quietly and bounced back via tries from prop Schalk Ferreira and flank Wimpie van der Walt to narrow the gap to just two points.
Penalties from Lealiifano and Nic White ensured the hosts reached the break narrowly ahead, but du Preez rounded off a great try from a move started in their own 22 to throw a cat amongst the pigeons early in the second-half.
Lealiifano was able to put the Brumbies back in front from the kicking tee and the Kings' spoiling tactics at the breakdown were eventually punished by a yellow card for Ferreira.
Lealiifano was on target twice to stretch the lead to seven points in the final ten minutes and it looked to be enough as referee Jaco Peyper signalled full time with the kings camped on the Brumbies line. But a call from the assistant referee gave the Kings one last penalty and du Preez crashed over from short range.
The scorers:
For Brumbies:
Tries: Speight, Tomane
Pens: Lealiifano 5, White
For Kings:
Tries: Ferreira, van der Walt, du Preez 2
Cons: Whitehead 3, Catrakilis
Yellow card: Ferreira
Brumbies: 15 Robbie Coleman, 14 Henry Speight, 13 Tevita Kuridrani, 12 Pat McCabe, 11 Joe Tomane, 10 Christian Lealiifano, 9 Nic White, 8 Fotu Auelua, 7 George Smith, 6 Ben Mowen (c), 5 Etienne Oosthuizen, 4 Peter Kimlin, 3 Dan Palmer, 2 Siliva Siliva, 1 Ben Alexander.

Here's a doozy. We had a recent cold spell snap and I thougght that our show drain trap had fronzen due to its proximity to an exposed wall.
I've heated the floor beneath the show drain and no change. Still clogged solid.
I took the shop vac to remove the standing water and sucked up a monster hail ball from the trap. Drain still is block, not even a trickle.
I did the store brand (Ace) drain opener thing. No change.
I have snaked the thing to death and cannot get snake any further down the drain but maybe 3-4 feet. No change.
I bought one of those hose end rubber gagets that expands in the pipe and with water pressure pushes the clog down the drain. Works well, getting a good seal and water is running down the drain (when I push it) via some path (maybe the vent?). When I release the pressure from the hose, water gushes up the drain, I suspect from the height of the water column pushed up the vent. No chage. Drain still clogged.
I have run hot water, cold water, etc. No change.
The vent is in the attic so I can't be full of snow etc. All other drains on that vent circuit drain well.
When I vac all the water from the shower drain, I can hear (up from the clogged show drain) the other drains below the upstair shower on that circuit draining....seems to be an open path somewhere.
I'm ready to try the acid based drain opener but I am stumped.

when two competing hypotheses explain the data equally well, choose the simpler. Or, as Sir William Hamilton puts it, "Neither more, nor more onerous, causes are to be assumed, than are necessary to account for the phenomena." Named for English philosopher William of Ockham or Occam (c.1285-c.1349), who expressed it with Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter ncccssitatem.
So called after William of Occam (died about 1349): but, as a historical fact, Occam does not make much use of this principle, which belongs rather to the contemporary nominalist William Durand de St. Pourçain (died 1332). [Century Dictionary]
|Occam's razor or Ockham's razor
A rule in science and philosophy stating that entities should not be multiplied needlessly. This rule is interpreted to mean that the simplest of two or more competing theories is preferable and that an explanation for unknown phenomena should first be attempted in terms of what is already known. Occam's razor is named after the deviser of the rule, English philosopher and theologian William of Ockham (1285?-1349?).
The English philosopher, William of Occam (1300-1349) propounded Occam's Razor:
Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem.
(Latin for "Entities should not be multiplied more than necessary"). That is, the fewer assumptions an explanation of a phenomenon depends on, the better it is.
For example, some claim that God caused himself to exist and also caused the universe to exist - he was the "first cause" - whereas Occam's Razor suggests that if one accepts the possibility of something causing itself then it is better to assume that it was the universe that caused itself rather than God because this explanation involves fewer entities.
The negation of Occam's Razor would suggest that an arbitrarily complex explanation is just as good as the simplest one. (E.g. God and his cat created a robot called Sparky who built the universe from parts bought from a shop in another dimension).

Giron recalled
Senator loses her seat by 56-44 percent
In a recall election filled with political theater, legal challenges and millions of dollars, Pueblo voters delivered a final dramatic message Tuesday recalling Democratic state Sen. Angela Giron by a margin of 56 percent to 44 percent.
Giron could not withstand a push to remove her from office after supporting a number of gun control measures last session.
She was the second senator recalled on Tuesday night following the defeat of John Morse in El Paso County.
"We are certainly disappointed by the outcome of the recall elections," Gov. John Hickenlooper said in a statement. "It's now time we refocus again on what unites Coloradans — creating jobs, educating our children, creating a healthier state — and on finding ways to keep Colorado moving forward."
Giron said she was perplexed by the result but knew that she had "not one iota of regret" for how she voted in the Legislature.
The unofficial results as of press time were 19,355 votes for the recall and 15,201 against it.
Victor Head, the Pueblo West man who organized the recall effort, thanked his volunteers for their work and said the major message of the election was that big money can't buy results.
Republican George Rivera earned 19,301 votes as a replacement candidate putting him in office for the remainder of Giron's term — about a year.
Rivera said it was amazing to watch people come together to make the recall work.
Giron maintained a lead in the early returns which included 700 mail ballots and votes cast at the election center Downtown.
But as more polling centers came in, the tide turned and remained steadily in favor of a recall throughout the night.
Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder Gilbert "Bo" Ortiz said there were numerous election judges reviewing packets from each polling center individually before releasing data cards containing the information on the actual votes cast.
It slowed the counting process during the early hours of the night, but Ortiz said he convinced the judges to release the cards at once and the numbers started rolling in faster.
The election had originally been planned as an all-mail affair. But a legal challenge by another Pueblo Democrat and a Colorado Springs Libertarian showed that the Colorado Constitution prohibited recall elections by mail, forcing the election to go to polling centers.
Voter turnout was roughly 35 percent.
A new election law triggered fears that large sums of people would be able to register and vote in the election even though they had no intention of living in Giron's district.
Ortiz said that on Election Day, just 12 people from outside of the county registered and voted.
Ortiz's office has 10 days to make the results final.

Prescription drug abuse is when someone takes a medication that was prescribed for someone else or takes their own prescription in a way not intended by a doctor or for a different reason—like to get high.
It has become a big health issue because of the dangers, particularly the danger of abusing prescription pain medications. For teens, it is a growing problem:
- After marijuana and alcohol, prescription drugs are the most commonly abused substances by Americans age 14 and older.
- Teens abuse prescription drugs for a number of reasons, such as to get high, to stop pain, or because they think it will help them with school work.
- Most teens get prescription drugs they abuse from friends and relatives, sometimes without the person knowing.
- Boys and girls tend to abuse some types of prescription drugs for different reasons. For example, boys are more likely to abuse prescription stimulants to get high, while girls tend to abuse them to stay alert or to lose weight.
When prescription drugs are taken as directed, they are usually safe. It requires a trained health care clinician, such as a doctor or nurse, to determine if the benefits of taking the medication outweigh any risks for side effects. But when abused and taken in different amounts or for different purposes than as prescribed, they affect the brain and body in ways very similar to illicit drugs.
When prescription drugs are abused, they can be addictive and put the person at risk for other harmful health effects, such as overdose (especially when taken along with other drugs or alcohol). And, abusing prescription drugs is illegal—and that includes sharing prescriptions with family members or friends.
Commonly Abused Prescription Drugs
There are three kinds of prescription drugs that are commonly abused. Visit our separate Drug Facts pages to learn more about each of these classes of drugs:
- Opioids—pain relievers like Vicodin, OxyContin, or codeine
- Depressants—like those used to relieve anxiety or help a person sleep, such as Valium or Xanax
- Stimulants—like those used for treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), such as Adderall and Ritalin
Find information on abuse of cough and cold medications.
Prescription drugs are often strong medications, which is why they require a prescription in the first place. When they are abused, they can be just as dangerous as drugs that are made illegally. Even when they are not abused, every medication has some risk for harmful effects, sometimes serious ones. Doctors consider the potential benefits and risks to each patient before prescribing medications and take into account a lot of different factors, described below. People who abuse drugs might not understand how these factors interact and put them at risk.
- Personal information. Doctors take into account a person's weight, how long they've been prescribed the medication, and what other medications they are taking. Someone abusing prescription drugs may overload their system or put themselves at risk for dangerous drug interactions that can cause seizures, coma, or even death.
- Form and dose. Doctors know how long it takes for a pill or capsule to dissolve in the stomach, release drugs to the blood, and reach the brain. When abused, prescription drugs may be taken in larger amounts or in ways that change the way the drug works in the body and brain, putting the person at greater risk for an overdose. For example, when people who abuse OxyContin crush and inhale the pills, a dose that normally works over the course of 12 hours hits the central nervous system all at once. This effect increases the risk for addiction and overdose.
- Side effects. Prescription drugs are designed to treat a specific illness or condition, but they often affect the body in other ways, some of which can be dangerous. These are called side effects. For example, OxyContin stops pain, but it also causes constipation and sleepiness. Stimulants, such as Adderall, increase a person's ability to pay attention, but they also raise blood pressure and heart rate, making the heart work harder. These side effects can be worse when prescription drugs are not taken as prescribed or are abused in combination with other substances—including alcohol, other prescription drugs, and even over-the-counter drugs, such as cold medicines. For instance, some people mix alcohol and depressants, like Valium, both of which can slow breathing. This combination could stop breathing altogether.
People abuse prescription drugs by taking medication in a way that is not intended, such as:
- Taking someone else's prescription medication. Even when someone takes another person's medication for its intended purposes (such as to relieve pain, to stay awake, or to fall asleep) it is considered abuse.
- Taking a prescription medication in a way other than prescribed. Taking your own prescription in a way that it is not meant to be taken is also abuse. This includes taking more of the medication than prescribed or changing its form—for example, breaking or crushing a pill or capsule and then snorting the powder.
- Taking a prescription medication to get high. Some types of prescription drugs also can produce pleasurable effects or "highs." Taking the medication only for the purpose of getting high is considered prescription drug abuse.
In the brain, neurotransmitters such as dopamine send messages by attaching to receptors on nearby cells. The actions of these neurotransmitters and receptors cause the effects from prescription drugs. Each class of prescription drugs works a bit differently in the brain:
- Prescription opioid pain medications bind to molecules on cells known as opioid receptors—the same receptors that respond to heroin. These receptors are found on nerve cells in many areas of the brain and body, especially in brain areas involved in the perception of pain and pleasure.
- Prescription stimulants, such as Ritalin, have similar effects to cocaine, by causing a buildup of dopamine and norepinephrine.
- Prescription depressants make a person feel calm and relaxed in the same manner as the club drugs GHB and rohypnol.
Learn more about how the brain works and what happens when a person abuses drugs.
Prescription drugs can cause dangerous short- and long-term health problems when they are not used as directed or when they are taken by someone other than the person they were prescribed for.
- Abusing opioids like oxycodone and codeine can cause you to feel sleepy, sick to your stomach, and constipated. At higher doses, opioids can make it hard to breathe properly and can cause overdose and death.
- Abusing stimulants like Adderall or Ritalin can make you feel paranoid (feeling like someone is going to harm you even though they aren't). It also can cause your body temperature to get dangerously high and make your heart beat too fast. This is especially likely if stimulants are taken in large doses or in ways other than swallowing a pill.
- Abusing depressants like barbiturates can cause slurred speech, shallow breathing, sleepiness, disorientation, and lack of coordination. People who abuse depressants regularly and then stop suddenly may experience seizures. At higher doses depressants can also cause overdose and death, especially when combined with alcohol.
Abusing depressants like barbiturates can cause slurred speech, shallow breathing, sleepiness, disorientation, and lack of coordination. People who abuse depressants regularly and then stop suddenly may experience seizures.
In addition, abusing over-the-counter drugs that contain DXM can also produce very dangerous effects.
Abuse of any of these types of medications can lead to addiction. And, abusing any type of drug that causes changes in your mood, perceptions, and behavior can affect judgment and willingness to take risks—putting you at greater risk for HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Prescription drugs can increase risk for health problems when combined with other prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, illicit drugs, or alcohol. For example, combining opioids (pain medicines) with alcohol can make breathing problems worse and can lead to death.
Yes, prescription drugs that effect the brain, including opioid pain relievers, stimulants, and depressants, may cause physical dependence that can turn into addiction.
Dependence happens because the brain and body adapt to having drugs in the system for a while. A person may need larger doses of the drug to get the same initial effects. This is known as "tolerance." When drug use is stopped, withdrawal symptoms can occur. Dependence is not the same as addiction, but it can contribute to a person developing an addiction. It is one of the many reasons why a person should only take (and stop taking) prescription drugs under a doctor's care.
Carefully following the doctor's instructions for taking a medication can make it less likely that someone will develop dependence or addiction, because the medication is prescribed in amounts and forms that are considered appropriate for that person. However, dependence and addiction are still potential risks when taking certain types of prescription drugs. These risks should be carefully weighed against the benefits of the medication and patients should communicate any issues or concerns to their doctor as soon as they arise.
Medications that affect the brain can change the way it works—especially when they are taken over an extended period of time or with escalating doses. They can change the reward system, making it harder for a person to feel good without the drug and possibly leading to intense cravings, which make it hard to stop using. This is no different from what can happen when someone takes illicit drugs—addiction is a real possibility. When a person is addicted to a drug, finding and using that drug can begin to feel like the most important thing—more important than family, friends, school, sports, or health.
Other kinds of medications that do not act in the brain, such as antibiotics used to treat infections, are not addictive.
Yes, more than half of the drug overdose deaths in the United States each year are caused by prescription drug abuse. In the last decade, the number of deaths from abuse of prescription drugs has increased dramatically.
In 2001, close to 9,200 people died from a prescription drug overdose; that number jumped to more than 29,700 in 2015. The trend holds true for young people—close to 800 young people died as a result of a prescription drug overdose in 2001. In contrast, more than 2.5 times that—over 2,200 young people—died from an overdose in 2015.
Close to 22,600 of all deaths from abuse of prescription drugs involved opioid pain relievers and nearly 8,800 involved a class of depressants known as benzodiazepines (some deaths include more than one type of drug).1
Mixing different types of prescription drugs can be particularly dangerous. For example, benzodiazepines interact with opioids and increase the risk of overdose.

Those involved in the Ferron salinity project met for a program and dinner on June 8. Roger Barton welcomed everyone. He said the most wonderful thing about the irrigation project was the partnerships forged. The Ferron project has become a showcase for the nation.
San Rafael Works cooked the dinner for the celebration and Kent Petersen entertained the group with cowboy poetry.
On Oct. 30, 1998 the first pipe was put in for the project. Local crews and suppliers have been used as much as possible. Sen. Robert Bennett's representative, Donna Sackett said the Senator was happy to be involoved with the project because it was the right thing to do. It has affected so many people. They have watched over the last eight years as the fields have flourished and miracles have happened.
Mike Styler, director of the Natural Resources Department said he has a farm in Oasis and as he was driving into Ferron, he thought it looked like the Garden of Eden. "It takes a farmer to see and appreciate what you've done here. You have set the example. Your crops will be better, your water quality will be better. You are great stewards of natural resources. I am very impressed and pay tribute to you and your partners."
Sylvia Gillen, state conservationist, for the Natural Resources Conservation Service congratulated the local leadership in the Ferron project. She said the people who came together and dreamed this up saw far into the future. They are also the ones who receive the most flak. The land owners came together to convince neighbors of the worth of the project.
Jack Barnett from the Colorado River Salinity Control Forum said they congratulate the Ferron project on their accomplishments. They have tried to solve complex issues. "This project does more than remove salt it provides opportunity for wildlife and the downstream users will reap benefits as well as the community here," said Barnett.
The need for salinity projects is great, but many more applications are received than can be funded.
Barnett said he hasn't seen cooperation anywhere like he's seen on the Ferron project. The Ferron people believed if they formed a plan and got it out there something would happen.
Dave Trueman from the Bureau of Reclamation said their agency was really good with big projects like dams but the same theories didn't work for small projects. They spent $10 million studying what to do, but they failed to find a plan that would work. They were thinking of concrete lined canal systems. In looking at the topography of the area they thought pipes were too expensive. But as things have worked out, it was costing the Bureau $100 per reduction of one ton of salt and now this project has worked out to be $30 per ton of salt reduction which is a big savings. This first project has been a dream. A lot has been learned along the way in making the dream a reality. It's a wonderful project to watch the alkali patches disappear said Trueman.
A video was created by Mark Quilter of the UDAF and Ron Francis of the NRCS. It was shown to the audience. Many local Ferron residents were highlighted on the video with their views of the project.
Tidbits from the video included: yields on crops have increased by one third, fall planting is now possible, fourth cuttings of hay are now a reality, deep percolation is eliminated, runoff is reduced, and more ground gained for production by eliminating furrows.
The United States is under treaty with Mexico to provide good quality water to them. They use the water for domestic use and irrigation purposes. A board was formed to work on the salinity problem. Three members were appointed from each state, seven states in all. The board is a self-governing body and several agencies are also involved.
The Ferron project has been good for the entire community. More water is available for the city and residents. If someone wants to build a home they no longer have to go find their own water share. The city has available shares for use. The environment is better. Ferron is a better place to live.
Tracy Behling, president of the Ferron Canal Company said when the project started he had a full head of hair and look at him now. He quoted Ben Franklin who said, "We grow old too fast and wise too slow."
"No one told us we couldn't do it. We had a Ferron watershed project and a list of things we wanted to do. We wanted to keep the jobs local to help our area. The benefits of this project will widen as time goes on. We have had the help and support of so many," said Behling.
Barton mentioned the list of partners involved in the irrigation project: Bureau of Reclamation; Natural Resources Conservation Service; national, state and local employees; planners and designers; Ferron Canal and Reservoir Company; private landowners; construction crew, Mark DeBry and Merrill Duncan, construction manager; Ferron City, Clawson Town; Senator Bob Bennett; Colorado River Salinity Control Forum; Utah Department of Natural Resources,Water Resources, Water Quality, Water Rights, Agriculture and Food; Utah Agriculture Resource Conservation and Development Loan office; San Rafael Soil Conservation District; Utah Association of Conservation District; Carbon/Emery local workgroup; Emery County; USU Extension Service; Dennis Worwood; Harward Irrigation Systems; Richard, Calvin, Marcel, Mike, Jim, Len, employees, R,B and G Engineering; US Fish and Wildlife Service; pipe suppliers, vendors and services; Utah Power; and the Farm Service Agency.

The Obama administration appears poised to attack Syria after concluding Bashar Assad's government used chemical weapons, but many members of Congress say they haven't been briefed enough about why military action is warranted.
Opinions about Syria are all over the map, with many lawmakers saying the president cannot proceed without first getting authorization from Congress.
What's been irritating to a lot of lawmakers is that Obama doesn't seem to be asking for their permission at all. But whether the president is legally required to seek congressional approval before — for instance — launching cruise missiles into Syria is an issue that leaves even legal scholars furrowing their brows.
"The Constitution doesn't give me any quick answer to this," says Jesse Choper, who teaches constitutional law at the University of California, Berkeley. "It does say that Congress shall have the power to declare war. Well, the president would say, 'I am not declaring war. I am simply implementing foreign policy.' "
A 1973 statute, the War Powers Resolution, forbids armed forces from fighting more than 60 days without congressional approval. But does that mean the president can unilaterally start military action basically any time he wants?
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas recently argued on Fox News that "the only justifiable reason" for engaging the military is "to protect our national security."
If you want a Supreme Court case clarifying the president's powers as commander in chief, legal experts say: Good luck. The cases that really deal with that question date back to the mid-19th century. So lawmakers have been spending this week offering their own constitutional interpretations.
"Look, I say this respectfully, but it is not the king's army," says Republican Rep. Scott Rigell of Virginia.
Rigell has gotten dozens of House members to sign on to a letter demanding that the president ask for the official blessing of Congress before attacking Syria. Some House and Senate members have been briefed by the president, but Rigell says more should be included — even if it means reconvening Congress during its summer recess.
"He has both the time and the obligation to come before Congress," Rigell says, "and if he truly believes that the use of force is both warranted and imminent, present that information to us, allow us a reasonable but short period to deliberate it. And in my view, that could be even a period of hours."
But whether Congress could come to a cohesive position on the proper response to Syria seems doubtful, if you've been watching any TV this week. Republican Rep. Peter King of New York, who is on the House Intelligence Committee, told CNN the image of the White House is at stake.
"There's more of a concern here that we lose our credibility if we don't act, in view of how strongly President Obama has warned Syria in the past not to use chemical weapons," King said.
But Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona told Fox News what the U.S. should really be focused on is changing the actual balance of power in the civil war — something the administration has said it's not interested in doing right now.
"If we do it right, and reverse the momentum here, I think that it could really have an effect in the eventual overthrow of a person who is clearly now a war criminal," McCain said.
Even lawmakers who believe it's enough to just focus on removing the chemical weapons say missile strikes won't solve the problem.
"To do the job right," says Republican Rep. Devin Nunes of California, who's also on the House Intelligence Committee, "we would have to have American troops, or coalition forces, on the ground in order to secure the chemical weapons."
But at the moment, the White House seems reluctant to commit any boots on the ground. The military response, most likely missile strikes, may last only a few days at most — possibly ending before Congress even gets back from its summer break.

Hey, Its me, GLOPINO wanting to know what your favorite Fett quote of alltime is.
My favorite is "He's no good to me dead".
"Dad, Taun Wi's here"
mine is:
"As you wish."
I cant remember it....I think one of the members had it as a signature, maybe -FETT- some thing about not being the only one whose killed jedi
A_A, the quote you're talking about is in the comic Tales Issue 11. Boba is on Tatooine after Han and Vader shows up and they crash through a wall into an alley and Vader pulls out his lightsaber. Then Boba pulls out a green one and blocks. This is when Boba says, "You're not the only one who's killed Jedi." Boba loses this fight, however.
My favorite quote is what my siggie says. It was said in Tales from Jabba's Palace.
Thanks Miba, that was a great help
AHAH! I knew it was around here.
As you wish
My favourite is from the Wrath of Mandalorian: "Next time when you need me - and you will - my price is triple!"
AHAH! I knew it was around here.
Augh, you'd think I'd be the one to remember this. lol
Well let go of to that topic.
"This IS my face."
Kid Boba: He he he.
Tales from Jabba's Palace: "I'm going to kill you very slowly"
My favorite is: "Everyone dies...since no one's paid me to kill you, sleep well."
Not a quote but,
Fett makes a statement without saying a word the way he holds his blaster in the films!
lol. True.
My two favorite that tied is
" Put Captain Solo in the Cargo hold." Or " He is no used to me dead"
My two favorite that tied is
" Put Captain Solo in the Cargo hold." Or " He is no used to me dead"
Actually I believe that line is "He's no good to me dead."
Your write that is what fast typing and 2 kids do. Distractions distractions. Thanks for putting me straight.
Np. I don't have kids but I have cats so I understand about distractions! lol
Boba Fett: "Medrit, I want to send Han Solo a gift."
Medrit: "Nice carbonite table?"
Boba Fett: "Proper beskar crushgaunts, so he can throttle the life out of his vermin spawn. And maybe a couple of armor plates and a small blade."
Medrit: "Gift wrapped, signed, Please kill your son before we have to?"
Security Officer: "Want to negotiate a landing fee?"
Boba Fett: "Want to negotiate an ion cannon?"
Darth D Gloom
There are tons.. but cant think of any better right now
Darth Dessel Gloom, nice choices! Thanks for posting! Do you recall where those are originally found?
"The Sarlacc found me somewhat indigestible." From Dark Empire 4.
Also, Gloom's first quote is from Sacrifice, and the second is from Bloodlines. <3
Tempest, welcome to the site! Great quotes and thank you for adding the source! Much appreciated.

The quality is sure crappy, indeed. I have all the Taka files, but this time, it looked very awefull.. but I must say something about it;
HOW THE FCK do they produce such low quality animation, when they are receiving so much $$$$$ for Naruto watcher and readers? come on!!
They had 2,5 months ( when they were releasing fillers ) to work on the quality of the canon episodes.. just a little bit effort won't harm a thing.

Cute shoe but not very comfy in true size
"These shoes look unique. Quite cute with short pencil skirts. However, they are really uncomfortable at the toes. Pinches if you buy to size. Had to go a full size higher to 11 since I normally wear size 10 and there's no 10.5. Apart from that, they are well made and look quite rich."

Even though your cows no longer are grazing corn stalks, don't put away your electric fence for the summer just yet. I'll explain why in a moment.
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack announced that USDA has extended the sign-up deadline from June 1 to Aug. 14, 2009, for both the Direct and Counter-cyclical Program (DCP) and the forthcoming Average Crop Revenue Election (ACRE) Program. This action extends the sign-up deadline by 10 weeks to give producers ample time to decide whether to participate in ACRE or remain in DCP.
I recently taught a class on gardening greener and thought the information may be useful to those of you that would like to be a little "greener" in the garden and didn't have the time to attend one of my "Wheelbarrow Series" classes. So, I have decided to put together my top greener gardening tips.
Cool, wet weather has prevailed across much of Kentucky over the past week or so, increasing the risk of diseases on tobacco transplants.
The current conditions are particularly favorable for collar rot and target spot. We have confirmed a case of collar rot from a greenhouse in central Kentucky within the past few days, so the focus of this week's article will be on recognition and management of this disease.
Besides blank shank, this is the worst disease we have to deal with. In the float systems, occasionally this is fatal, but mostly what it does is rob you of time. With the serious outbreak of this disease it will set the affected plants back four to six weeks. Most people can't afford that kind of waiting period. So, please pay attention to this article and manage accordingly.
These days we are bombarded with special days and months to honor various causes, and there are so many, it is impossible to keep up with them all. Although we wonder sometimes why recognition of so many days or months have been created, I have found that it helps to remind me of the importance of those causes perhaps to our community, or to our state or our country. During April, we celebrate/honor several causes including Earth Day (April 22), Arbor Day (April 24), Kentucky Writers' Day (April 24) and April as National Poetry Month, Children and Nature Awareness Month an
Over 160 people from across the state gathered April 4 at the Mercer County Extension Office for the 10th Annual Dustin Worthington "I Love Cows" Essay Contest awards ceremony. At t his year's ceremony, eighteen beef heifers were given away to students who participated in the contest. The contest is open to all FFA & 4-H members interested in the cattle industry in the state of Kentucky.
This week, the remaining results from the 4-H Talk Meet program are listed in the 4-H News including from North Washington Elementary and the County-wide Talk Meet that was held on Thursday, April 9, at St. Catharine College.
If you have been trying to garden lately, you know that the cool wet spring so far is slowing us down as well as our plants. Don't complain though. Just as easy as the rains are coming now, it could soon stop for a long hot summer, so let's just enjoy the rain while we have it. Who knows, we might even get rain for the entire growing season!
Provide protein – Legume forages can provide up to 75 percent of the protein needed by lactating dairy cows; corn silage can provide up to 25 percent.
Provide fiber – Forages are often the only source of fiber in a cow's diet. Fiber is essential to slow the passage of feed, thereby increasing the amount of nutrients that the cow can absorb from the feed.
Maximize intake – Forages stimulate cud chewing and rumination, which improve the cow's appetite. Some non-forage sources of fiber actually reduce intake.

Community members assisted through Enrollment Fairs, Yuma Regional Outpatient Clinics and Patient Access
Yuma, AZ – March 31, 2014- With the deadline to enroll in Marketplace approaching tonight, YRMC is reporting that the hospital has assisted nearly 2,200 individuals in Yuma County with health insurance applications through health insurance fairs, individual appointments at Yuma Regional Outpatient Clinics and assistance through the Patient Access department. This includes applications for the Health Insurance Exchange as well as AHCCCS, Arizona's Medicaid program.
Beginning in late 2013, YRMC began an aggressive campaign to educate the community on healthcare changes in 2014 and assisted with enrollment through multiple channels. In addition to health insurance enrollment fairs and one-on-one appointments, YRMC wrote letters to potential applicants, produced an educational brochure, partnered with local media outlets to increase public awareness and built a Marketplace website.
"It is extremely important for all individuals to have some form of health insurance," said Pat Walz, President & CEO of YRMC. "Health insurance allows individuals to see a primary care doctor on a regular basis and is vital to preventative and comprehensive healthcare. As a hospital, it is important to us as it alleviates the volumes we see in our Emergency Department, which should be reserved for emergency cases. All in all, it translates to better healthcare for all parties."
Number of Individuals Assisted with Health Insurance Applications in our Community
March 31 is the deadline to register for Marketplace, a health insurance exchange where individuals and small business owners can browse health insurance options. This was introduced as part of the Affordable Care Act, which is also known as "ObamaCare." Open enrollment for Marketplace will begin again on October 1, 2014, for health insurance coverage in 2015. AHCCCS, Arizona's Medicaid program remains open throughout the year. YRMC will host additional health insurance enrollment fairs, specific to AHCCCS on a monthly basis throughout the rest of the year.
Yuma Regional Medical Center is a 406-bed, not-for-profit hospital dedicated to providing outstanding medical care to the residents of Yuma and the surrounding communities in southwestern Arizona. The YRMC team includes over 2,000 employees, 300 doctors and hundreds of volunteers who work closely together to create a welcoming, caring, and compassionate environment for patients and their families.
