The Emery County Local Emergency planning committee met in their July meeting. The purpose of the LEPC is to help the county become better prepared to handle any emergency that comes up in the county. The committee is made up of a representative from each of the cities and towns, members of the Emery County Sheriff's Office, Homeland Security, Emergency Services and the media.
At the July meeting, Meghan Balough the coordinator of the National Toxic Substance Incidents Program formerly known as the Hazardous Substances Emergency Event Surveillance Program. The Program's goal is to reduce injury and death from toxic substance incidents in Utah and is in conjunction with the Utah Department of Health. NTSIP collects data about incidents which are within the 72 hours window and tracks them for use by companies and programs in the state. They also have an outreach program to help identify the risk factors, develop reduction strategies, provide data to first responders, employers, and general public, identify most commonly released chemicals, educate first responders, employees and general public and most commonly released chemicals and provide presentations on the system and its finding. The gas leak in Ferron will not show up on their stats because it was considered a chronic incident, greater than 72 hours.
In 2009 250 events fit their case definition. Sgt. Tom Harrison asked who's responsibility it is to report to NTSIP. Balough said they get their reports on a voluntary basis and most come from the National Response center and poison control. In the case of a hazardous spill the responsible party would be required to report to Environmental Quality who then often report to NTSIP.
The LEPC helped with the Emergency Preparedness Fair on June 18: Sgt. Harrison said the committee felt it was a success with a good turnout and positive comments. One of the reasons for this year's success was the committee organized to plan the fair so that the responsibility did not fall on just one or two people.
Next year's emergency fair will be held in Carbon County. Martin Wilson suggested having workshops gearing up for the fair just that week prior. These could include Storm Ready, Storm Watchers, CERT, fire extinguisher classes etc. The vendors seemed satisfied with the way things were organized and had an opportunity to visit with many fair goers about their specialties.
Sgt. Harrison reported on a slot canyon rescue and gas leak in Ferron. The slot canyon rescue was in Zero Gravity canyon by Goblin Valley. A 16 year old large Boy Scout climbed up and slipped into a slot. They couldn't get to him from the bottom. The Rope Rescue team attempted from above. The responders were frustrated and were ready to call in Utah Valley's group when they were finally able to provide support platform from below, lubricate and finally the scout was dislodged. The rope rescue team has been called eight times since their training and are becoming a valuable part of emergency response in our area.
Ferron Mayor JoAnn Behling, thanked the Sheriff's office for their response to the gas leak. Citizens along Molen Road reported to the Special Services District a gas odor from the sewer. They first flushed the lines, but the odor came right back. It's possible that this has been going on for some time. A big concern was volatile fumes, but it was determined that LEL's weren't high enough for explosive danger, just an annoyance. One house has had the smell in drinking water which is likely to have come from the benzene penetrating the plastic pipes. Other entities involved were the EPA, Division of Water Quality and Division of Drinking Water. The ground around is saturated and soil may have to be removed. The costs will likely have to be borne by the business owner. Response groups have possible recourse to recoup costs involved through a program.
Work is continuing on the emergency operations plan. Sgt. Harrison said, "It looked good, and we made a few corrections. When it is completed he will come down and present to all cities. They'll be able to sign a formal document adopting it. It is hoped that this will be completed before the end of the HLS09 grant cycle.
In Huntington their CERT training is almost complete, six people need one more class. They have selected a team leader. Jerry Livingston said Huntington is considering a generator for City Hall. Sgt. Harrison suggested diesel, but then on finding that it would be a permanent one, natural gas or propane would be a good option. Generators of this nature would need to be run on a regular basis to maintain viability.
The foresters reported their fire season is quiet for now. No controlled burns are planned for remainder of year. No burn restrictions on the forest are in place.
The photographers for the aerial photos of the county have begun to fly and gather the pictures they need.
Christine Bardsley said that Dr. Otto Dickman has left the clinic and it is without a physician. They are in the process of recruiting but are currently covered by Dr. Frazier from the ER in Price. A physician is coming temporarily for a month.
LEPC committee members in attendance included: Sgt. Tom Harrison, Michael Riley, Justin Needles, Martin Wilson, Cynthia Grant, Jed Jensen, JoAnn Behling, Patsy Stoddard, Jerry Livingston and Christine Bardsley.

look like they might break
"The material that makes the straps looks very cheap - it feels like it is going to break. I thought I might wear these for going out, but the metallic finish and all of the straps make this a little too out of my comfort zone. They seemed comfortable, but the style just wasn't working for me."

This week at the capitol we've received new revenue projections and we're working to finalize the state budget. We already passed a base budget as a guide, but we are now able to appropriate new ongoing and one-time revenue. Our new budget projections are: $264 million in ongoing revenue and $161 million in one-time revenue.
It's important to recognize the difference between the two types of revenue. We can expect the source of ongoing revenue to remain about the same year to year, but one-time revenue can only be used once. Except in cases of emergency, the state of Utah does its best to avoid paying for ongoing costs with one-time revenue.
The ongoing revenue will go to support the growth of 12,500 additional students in public education as well as the increase in public employee health and retirement costs. One-time revenue costs include a $20 million bill from the series of forest fires last summer and much needed operations and maintenance funding for a variety of state buildings that had their funding cut during the recession.
The federal government's tax increase earlier this year had a $100 million negative impact on our revenue projections. And in the event the federal government chooses sequestration, as much as $50 million in funding will be impacted. By the time of publication of this report, the federal issue will likely be resolved.
With or without the federal impact, the dollars will be less than expected, requiring many tough decisions when it comes to balancing our budget. Legislators and appropriations committees have put together a $900 million wish list of what to do with the money. Every group has a good reason for needing the money, so it will take a lot of wisdom and a little bit of luck to see which bills obtain the coveted funding. Despite federal mismanagement, we will hold education harmless and continue to provide a safety net for Utah's most needy. While the scramble to get funds is fierce, you can rest assured that the budget will be balanced and completed by the end of the session on March 14.
There are an unusual number of bills that deal with state and federal relationships involving firearms, environmental issues, endangered species, healthcare and others. As Washington becomes increasingly less fundamental, the burden on the state increases. It appears that our ability to "right the ship" will be severely tested during the next few years. I'm not pessimistic, but I am persuaded that we need to get our act together and that a good dose of common sense would be most useful.
As always, I look forward to hearing from you regarding your concerns and expectations.

Evening In Paris Eau de Parfum
The Most Famous Fragrance In the World
Evening In Paris Eau de Parfum
The Most Famous Fragrance In the World
Rated 4.5 out of 5Â by 60 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Mamacita Luisa I confess! It was me, I did it, I broke my beloved eldest sister's bottle of Evening in Paris perfume. This was in about 1950 -- and I am almost 78 now but have to confess that I was the little brat who broke it. It was so pretty, and I just wanted to smell it, and it slipped, and . . . Well just now I ordered a bottle of Evening in Paris to be sent to her, asking for forgiveness! "I hope you like it, Marty! I love you!" August 28, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by SharonaT. Brings back Memories When I was a little girl of about 10/11 years old I couldn't wait for Christmas to come. I had saved my nickles and dimes so that I had enough money to buy my Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, Aunts and Uncles and my brother a present. I didn't have a lot of money, so would go to Woolworths five and ten store. I bought each of the ladies a bottle of Evening in Paris Parfum for the unbelievable price of $1.00 a bottle. Sometimes I would buy Here's My Heart instead for the same price. All the men got a package of Hankies. For my brother he usually got some sort of toy. I remember being so excited to wrap them and give them on Christmas Day. August 23, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by MCMC Memories of my Mam Evening in Paris was my Mam's favorite fragrance when I was a little girl. My Mam passed away 40 years ago. The scent of my sweet mother came over me when I spritzed this cologne. Sweetest scent. Brought me to tears. I was able to share this most tangible of memories with my granddaughters. June 5, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Lyn in upstate New York Lovely fragrance relaxes me and brings back memories I have liked Evening in Paris for a long time. This is my second purchase from Vermont Country Store. To me, the fragrance is rather subtle and calming, a little on the flowery side. It matches who I am. It also brings back memories of when I was very little since my mom had this on her dressing table. June 3, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by suzenl Mamaw and er evening in Paris When I was 4, we moved into my grandmothers house for a year. I slept with Mamaw in a coal mining town in the mountains of VA. This would have been in 1958. My Mamaw would put on some of the evening in Paris before we walked to church. I would sit on her cedar chest and watch her get ready. I loved to smell her perfume! she would put on some and turn around and put a dot on me. I have never smelled it again and it might not smell the same way anymore but I want those memories to come back one more time. I saw it wasn't available until 1969 in the US so someone must have brought it back from the war? So happy to find it! April 25, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by crazygrannie love this fragrance When I was a little girl my Aunt Dot always had this fragrance on. I loved it. I asked if I could have some but she said it was not for little girls. she gave me heart bottles of blue waltz instead but it was not the same. Now finding this is so perfect. April 4, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5Â by winter's song Disappointed The fragrance is not what I remember. January 26, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Carolyn Chehardy Evening in Paris--Wow! I had purchased this for me about a year ago. Everywhere I went, everyone loved this beautiful scent! First my niece Diana hugged me and said, "You smell so good? What is that?" It was "Evening in Paris!" So I got her one and her sister too because I knew she would want one after she took a smell of her sisters. These young girls are in their 20's..... Then their mom hugged me another time, and had to go back again for another bottle.... Then my sister in law wanted some! Well for Christmas, they all got more Evening in Paris along with another gift!... The bottle will last a long time, as all you need are a couple of skirts!... Try this! Don't miss it! You will love the scent... It smells so good yet is not harsh or flowery. It just smells so good, and you feel like Princess when wearing it! Get ready because everyone will want some, so get a bunch for birthdays and other occasions! January 10, 2016

Omark will be signed
Jonathan Willis
December 16 2008 01:48PM
One of the joys of the internet is the ability to read material from foreign news sources. As an example, both Al-Jazeera and the Jerusalem Post offer English websites; when things of interest happen in the Middle East, I like to look at both for different non-Western viewpoints. Al-Jazeera also offers much more comprehensive coverage of current events in Africa than nearly any western source; BBC is probably closest, but there is almost always value in understanding different viewpoints from people inside the region as opposed to just those presented by outsiders with a Western background.
In any case, the majority of foreign newspaper coverage is not available in English, but thanks to imperfect instruments like Google Translator, we can get a rough idea of what's being said. With that in mind, there's a rather interesting article in the "Evening Sheet" on Oilers' prospect Linus "Unchecked" Omark. Anyone who reads Swedish, feel free to correct me, but as far as I can tell, the pertinent points are as follows:
- Omark is having a tremendous season in the Elitserien, and is now sitting second in total points in the league.
- The Oilers draft rights expire on July 1st, at which point Omark would be an unrestricted free agent.
- The Oilers have already asked Omark not to sign an SEL extension, as they will sign him to a North American contract for next season.
- Amateur scout Kent Nilsson has watched between 15-20 games of Nilsson's and is thrilled with his progress.
- Oilers' assistant GM Rick Olczyk is going to Sweden specifically to watch Omark, and given that he's the Oilers' contract guru, it probably isn't reaching to suggest that contract negotiations will happen at that time.
- Omark was told at training camp that the Oilers would like him to come to North America next season, and he's completely on board with it: "NHL är min dröm och får jag chansen kommer jag att ta den." (Roughly: The NHL is my dream and if I get the chance I will take it.)
There are differing views on Omark's potential as a player, particularly on a team already carrying multiple small, young, and offensively talented players. That said, it can only be viewed as a good thing that Omark is enthusiastic about playing in North America -– Alexei Mikhnov he isn't.

I was hoping for that response when I suggested the Youtube video. Schremp, however, he isn't.
December 16 2008, 02:28PM
To be a ppg player in the SEL takes a pretty good hockey player, when you consider a lot of NHLers didn't even make that mark when they played there during the lockout.
Is there anywhere I can go to get a scouting report on this guy?
Don Cherry will hate him.
I don't get this website. Yesterday it was full of Junior High School-age locker room banter and today you are comparing the merits of BBC & Al Jazeera.

Jonny Sweet: Mostly About Arthur
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2009
Jonny talks mostly about his late brother Arthur (a quite-highly-regarded writer of blurbs - on the back of books etc) with the aid of video, powerpoint presentation and a 2-minute biopic play. From BBC2's Winging It & the acclaimed House Of Windsor comes Jonny's highly-anticipated debut solo show.

gary ablett - 19/08/2009
Jonny sweet is going to be a massive star, this show is wonderfully inventive, fresh and daft, it had the audience in hysterics the night I was there. The guy is what, 23, 24? with three successful shows behind him already. It's a little raw in places but that what makes it so exciting. get a ticket if you can.
chris hogg - 15/08/2009
IF 'nice' was a steamroller it would be Jonny Sweet. He personally escorts every act to his seat, breaking down all physical boundaries on the way. The show isn't easy to describe, but it is the best thing I have seen at the Fringe so far. In a small room in the Pleasance Courtyard - Jonny Sweet tells the story of his brother Arthur. The show is a personal In Memoriam. Innocence and nonsence are the key words here, and you leave with the knowledge that something lovely and lucky has happened to you. You have laughed exstatically for an hour.

Skip to comments.A Breathing Technique Offers Help for People With Asthma
Posted on 11/02/2009 10:44:23 PM PST by neverdem
I dont often write about alternative remedies for serious medical conditions. Most have little more than anecdotal support, and few have been found effective in well-designed clinical trials. Such trials randomly assign patients to one of two or more treatments and, wherever possible, assess the results without telling either the patients or evaluators who received which treatment.
Now, however, in describing an alternative treatment for asthma that does not yet have top clinical ratings in this country (although it is taught in Russian medical schools and covered by insurance in Australia), I am going beyond my usually stringent research criteria for three reasons:
¶The treatment, a breathing technique discovered half a century ago, is harmless if practiced as directed with a well-trained therapist.
¶It has the potential to improve the health and quality of life of many people with asthma, while saving health care dollars.
¶Ive seen it work miraculously well for a friend, David Wiebe, who had little choice but to stop using the steroid medications that were keeping him alive.
Mr. Wiebe, 58, of Woodstock, N.Y., is a well-known maker of violins and cellos with a 48-year history of severe asthma that was treated with bronchodilators and steroids for two decades. Ten years ago, Mr. Wiebe noticed gradually worsening vision problems, eventually diagnosed as a form of macular degeneration caused by the steroids. Two leading retina specialists told him to stop using the drugs if he wanted to preserve his sight.
He did, and endured several terrifying trips to the emergency room when asthma attacks raged out of...
Treatment From the 50s
Then, last spring, someone told him about the Buteyko method, a shallow-breathing technique developed in 1952 by a Russian doctor, Konstantin Buteyko. Mr. Wiebe watched a video demonstration on YouTube and mimicked the instructions shown...
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
What about something preemptive, so people with asthma can do physical activity?
Thanks for posting this - my mom has both asthma and macular degeneration like the guy in the article! I will look into it - she doesn't have access to YouTube, so I may have to learn it myself, lol.
wow- I dunno- when you are suffering an attack, it's panic time- I can't imagine takign shallower breaths. I've been on Advair for awhile now, and it's a great medication- I don't get short of breath anymore, but If I do, I'll give the shallow breathing a shot- just seems so whacked though because hwen you're starving for breath, ya just panic and breath deep
I've thought about breathing exercises as an alternative to steroids, but imagined it would be a deep breathing process like a vocalist would use, not a short one like the Buteyko method.
People should be careful about trying new methods to treat asthma especially with the flu season on top of us. It's also a good idea to check for warnings regarding steroid treatment as it relates to the flu strains we're now battling.
If someone has exercise induced asthma, they should ask their doc for an albuterol metered dose inhaler prescription if the doc agrees. Maybe mastering this breathing technique would make that unnecessary.
public service announcement time
If we would give them a breathalyzer, and a little treatment. You know, some treatment, and a, a breathalyzer.
A breathalyzer and the Last Rites, LOL!
ping for later (and thanks for posting!)
OTOH, I become very suspicious when I see claims like this: The Method helps in overcoming various illnesses, especially asthma, COPD, allergies, stuffy nose and other breathing difficulties, anxiety, depression, skin problems, issues with metabolism and the immune system as well as many other diseases. This method is a powerful tool in creating general health.
I've seen and heard way too many snake oil salesmen and "miracle ingedients/cures" that were also touted as panaceas, to take this at face value: Dr. Joel Wallach, and his various scams; blue-green algae; drinking urine; acai; vinegar & honey; aromatherapy; macrobiotics; Scientology....
I was a Weblow cub scout leader and had the boys away at camp when a ten year old boy came to me having a severe asthma attack and said he didn't have his inhaler. We were fairly remote and there was no way to quick get him medical help.
I have never done this previously, or since, but I placed my hand on this boys stomache and pressed in, while telling him to inhale and push my hand outward with his stomache. In 3 or 4 breathes, his attack was gone. I was as amazed as he was that it worked.
Thanks - my daughter has asthma ... I'll pass this along.
Preemptive treatment is the inhaled steroids. Albuteral will treat an attack without steroids. But that will increase heart rate. No medication comes without a side effect.
Thanks for the ping!
I've heard of this from a respiratory therapist years ago. I don't know why the medical establishment is so resistant to alternative treatments like this. All the doctors I know really, truly do want to help their patients, in spite of the claim by the naturalists that the medical community wants to continue to see people sick because of the profit.
I certainly agree with the author's point. Much of what the natural/alternative health community purports sounds pretty whacked out, BUT they have been right in the past on a surprising number of rather major issues.
I suppose that that is what keeps me from blowing them off completely.
I do wish, however, that American healthcare would be more open to new and less invasive, innovative ideas.
I had asthma as a child and had my last serious attack when I was 18. My breathing gets a little tight when I am exposed to things in the air that irritate like smoke and chemical fumes but as soon as I get clean air I am OK. This is very interesting.
There's your mistake. Don't panic. I have always dealt with attacks by taking the smallest breaths I could, so that they were easier. And take them through the nose; the nose warms and cleans air before it hits your lungs so your lungs don't react even more to cold or some irritant. Stay vertical so that you can use the natural aid of gravity to pull down on the diaphragm.
The critical issue, though, is that you should not be having attacks if your disease is being properly managed. Nobody knows better than I do how horrible long-term oral (systemic) steroid use is, but a short-term burst of steroids, long enough to get established on inhaled steroids, is not damaging.
If your personal physician isn't up to the ocmplexities of managing your disease, try to find a provider who has been trained at the National Jewish Medical and Research Center in Denver. This is the nation's foremost center for the treatment of respiratory/immune disorders, and they train a number of physicians each year in the management of particularly difficult cases of asthma. See their website at nationaljewish.org for direction and help on the management of your disease.
Our older son had asthma, and fortunately, a ped, who had worked at NIH became his doctor.
Besides being up on the newer drugs (early 1970 to mid 70's), this ped drove home the importance of staying hydrated to the point of over hydration. He had our son stay hydrated with just water to prevent attacks and to minimize attacks.
Later when he was in high school and participated in varsity wrestling and football, those strains often would dehydrate him and start him into a asthma cycle.
Then, he got some great advice from the PT, who worked the side lines and wrestling rings to minimize injuries. The PT reinforced the hydration and was all over the coaches when they tried to minimize hydration by the athletes.
The PT taught our son others a simple breathing pattern to prevent/ease and often block an asthma attack.
The technique was a simple breath through the nose and to exhale 3 times out the mouth with no panic. This was done until after the asthma attack was aborted.
Flash foward a few decades, and our son's daughter, a competitive dancer and type A athlete like her dad and mother starting having asthma attacks which were sometimes followed by a migraine.
Like her dad used to be, she felt hydration was a waste of time. However, after a few double attacks of asthma/migraines, she started hydrating herself and takes a couple of water bottles to any event where she expended a lot of energy. Her eye doc, ped, Dad, Grandmother/RN and Dad's FP told her to stay hydrated to avoid asthma and migraines.
Then, we taught her the breathing in her nose and out 3 times through the mouth. When she hydrates and does the simple breathing exercise, she has no asthma nor migraines.
She hasn't used her Asthma prevention or rescue inhalers for close to two years. With the hydration, she has only had one migraine in close to 3 years, and that was when she didn't hydrate herself properly before and after running a mile.
For me the trick is to immediately and consciously relax. Relaxation can be trained, it should be practiced. Singers, shooters, hi-performance athletes, divers, yoga, energy methods, meditation practitioners all use some form of relaxation methods. For me, I learned a whole bunch of great techniques during pain management therapy. I apply some of them during bronchial constriction events and recover within seconds.
Would something like that require a person pushing on the stomach?
Thank you for the ping. Bookmark for later.
[[The critical issue, though, is that you should not be having attacks if your disease is being properly managed.]]
This was mostly before I went on advair- I used to just have the rescue inhalers, and life wasn't so great then (but was much better than without them)- the attacks would only come when I'd overdo it- running, or hurrying- mostly they would happen during lousy rainy weather if it'd been wet for a few days- humidity was also a killer for me- since being on the advair though, I can do quite a bit more than I used to before gettign to hte point of chest tightness, wheezing, etc- I have slowed down quite a bit htough because of Crohn's disease as well, but still try to remain as active as possible- just wish I'd had the advair 15 years ago when I was healthier as the asthma inhalers back then weren't too god- but when I was young, the choices were even worse- that really cramped my active life- had this little device which would crush a pill, and I'd inhale the powder- that stuff didn't work very well at all
Thanks for hte info- I'll check that site out
This is sometimes where a second person can be handy, my husband who just passed away had asthma and when he had a problem I would step in and assist him in breathing and it usually helped.
Yeah, I'm probably not goign to survive the swine flu- our town isn't even close to getting hte shots yet- people in surrounding towns are dying fro mthe flu, and it's coming up close to our town now- my neighbor went to college in Boston, got the flu, ended up with pnemonia, and got Guillian Barre (sp?) syndrome- she was a healthy active person, and dang near died from the flu- I don't htink I'm going to fare well if/when I get it- anytime I get somethign in the lungs liek Bronchitis or infection, I always end up in hospital, and htis swine flu definately attacks the lungs, or rather causes pnemonia- I've had hte pnemonia shot- just hope it works- otherwise, I'm not sure i'm strong enough to survive the lfu due to other health issues liek hte Crohn's, and sleep apnea (not gettign proper sleep really weakens a person's ability to fight off colds and flus)- oh well- we'll see
Would something like that require a person pushing on the stomach?
I was firm with the pressure but not severe. It was a combination of an authorative voice from me, focus on his stomache rather than his breathing, the resistance to the hyperventilation due to my pressure on his diaphram, the power of suggestion which really works with children, and a validation statement that everything would be ok, just relax! Oh, by the way I also moved my hand in a circular pattern to increase stimulation from my hand. IMHO, a lot of children create a psychological addiction to the inhaler. In this instance, the boy, who was overweight, was running for first base in our baseball game and was thrown out. I have a feeling that if he would have been safe the attack would not have happened. Im not generalizing this situation to all attacks!
That week was interesting as two of us were the leaders for 25 age 10-11 yr olds. Several were ADD and ADHD who were off their medication for the summer. They were all angels. I had no problem until Wed. evening campfire when the parents visited. It took me about 24 hrs after they left to settle them down again and they were fine until I delivered them to their parents Sat. afternoon. It was a profound week for me.
So you found that the kids had no problems when they were away from their parents, but the problems surfaced immediately when they were with them?
So you found that the kids had no problems when they were away from their parents, but the problems surfaced immediately when they were with them?
Exactly.... I grew up on a farm and have worked with animals my entire life. I use the same philosophy with children. If my dogs for example, are validated for good behavior, gently reprimanded for bad, and treated consistantly in the same pattern, they learn to know what to expect and calm down. Never, ever retroactively punish for a non communicated expectation. Otherwise they jump up and down, bark and are uncontrollable.
If you administer discipline without establishing and communicating the expectations prior to the behavior, their tension level goes through the roof as they are constantly on edge wondering how you will respond to their actions. I have always followed a policy of communicated responsibilities and expectations accompanied by agreed upon consequences if they are violated. This way I empower them and they know exactly where they stand and where their boundaries are. This worked with my four children, all of whom are self motivated and in college now...
Ping... (Thanks, neverdem!)
Keep up with other H1N1 update stories on this thread: H1N1 flu victim collapsed on way to hospital [Latest H1N1 updates downthread] thanks to DvdMom and others.
That's how I plan to be with my future children. My parents weren't like that with my sister and I. As a result, we're both lazy bums.
But, I believe I've turned out well despite that.
Keep us posted and especially let us know if you start to dome down with something. We'll get going on the praying then.
I also don't like when FRiends just disappear from FR. I always worry that something may have happened to them.
If you really think that this is that much of a danger, have someone you know and trust be able to get on your account and keep us posted.
will do MM- This flu is realy gonna be somethign else- they say however that older folks might have had previous exposure to similar virus, and usually end up getting the milder form of it, hopefully I've been exposed to it before and won't have that rough a time- but we'll see- kinda like waiting for the plague to strike lol- thats' what iot feels like anyways
The cases around the Syracuse area of the flu have been pretty mild. My daughter, who has some health concerns, had a case of it and her biggest complaint was the low grade fever. She's been far sicker with other illnesses not considered as serious.
My allergist told me last month that anyone over the age of 50 has had a swine flu 2-3 times and he didn't seem concerned about me getting it at all.
I'm not quite that old (but close) but hopefully I've had it aLready- gonna be interesting for sure-
Got an update on my neighbor, her Guillian barre has 'peaked' and she's on her way toward recovery I guess (gettign t6his info third hand, so not sure about the accuracy) She;s gonna need therapy I guess as she was paralyzed up to her waist for a bit (it was spreading higher, but I guess the treatment has helped stop it's progression- will know more rtomorrow- We've had 3 people in surroundign are die from this flu (confirmed) 2 adults, and one child- Yuck
Advair is a good medicine.
Marking for later.
Yep it sure is- Wish I'd have had it as a child instead of that crappy spin inhaler/pill crusher- that stuff just didn't work well at all- went into my early 30's with the regular rescue inhalers- those were better than spin inhaler, but still had to keep ihtting it throughout the day- with htis advair, I only have to use it once in morning and at night- good stuff for sure
Mark for future reference - thanks for posting!

"Worse, improved compliance may actually undo previous clinical studies which have built-in assumed compliance levels."
DR Steven Carden, PA technology and innovation expert
PA's Dr Steven Carden, technology and innovation expert, is extensively quoted in Pharmaceutical Technology. The article addresses smart packaging in the healthcare industry, which can enable patients to manage their medication more easily (patient adherence). Steven gives his view on the link between packaging and patient adherence.
Steven explains that an obstacle he faces when working with pharmaceutical companies is that while numbers stack up against non-compliance, there is not much evidence to prove that there is a direct link between intelligent packaging and improved patient adherence.
Steven says: "We have lots of conversations with pharmaceutical companies and CROs (Clinical Research Organisation) about the development of intelligent packaging solutions."
Steven continues: "But even if we are talking to a passionate champion of intelligent packaging, what we so often hear is that they struggle in their organisation to get any traction because there is no hard evidence to prove it has any return on investment. There is really only anecdotal evidence to suggest it helps with patient treatment regimes."
Steven goes on to argue that pharmaceutical companies do not have a direct link to make an investment that could affect their profit margins: "If, for example, the NHS took a view and stated that intelligent packaging would reduce the billions they pay out against non-adhering patients, then that would be a massive change and companies would have to address it."
Steven explains that pharmaceutical companies are doubtful about the future of the smart pill: "For existing drugs, companies would have to go through the entire process of proving the validation of their product again, along with proving that the metal sitting in the bottom of a patient's stomach isn't going to make a medical problem even worse."
Steven continues: "Worse, improved compliance may actually undo previous clinical studies which have built-in assumed compliance levels. It begs the question of how disruptive is adherence technology to what pharmaceutical companies are already trying to do?"
The article mentions PA's 'Inhaler of the Future' concept which was presented last year. The article notes that the device engages with the patient, issues personalised doses, monitors the patient's environment and sends the analysis to the healthcare provider.

Skipper Will Welch returns to the back-row in place of the injured Harrison Collins, while the in-form Richard Mayhew starts at number eight.
Promising tighthead Scott Wilson retains his position in the front-row alongside loosehead Rob Vickers and hooker Scott Wilson.
Meanwhile three new faces come into the backline with winger Alex Tait, centre Adam Powell and fly-half Rory Clegg pulling on the green and white European jersey.
"Italian sides at home are a different proposition to playing them in England," said director of rugby Dean Richards.
"The Latin mentality is that they give it their all at home in front of their passionate support, and we should also remember they had a difficult journey to Newcastle with being caught up in the airport chaos at London last weekend.
"They will be a different side altogether over there and I would expect them to be far more competitive."
Meanwhile, Calvisano start Marcello Violi in place of Simon Picone at scrum-half, with Stefano Scanferla in at openside flanker.
Tighthead prop Salvatore Costanzo – a replacement last weekend – captains the side.
The teams:
Calvisano: 15 Ben De Jager, 14 Pablo Canavosio, 13 Andy Vilk, 12 Tommy Castello, 11 Michele Visentin, 10 Kelly Haimona, 9 Marcello Violi, 8 Braam Steyn, 7 Stefano Scanferla, 6 Nicola Belardo, 5 Luca Beccaris, 4 Agustin Cavalieri, 3 Salvatore Costanzo (c), 2 Luigi Ferraro, 1 Andrea Lovotti.

Another potential milestone in the Bath squad is for Peter Stringer who, should he come off the bench, will make his 100th appearance in European competition.
Hat-trick hero from last weekend Richard Lane will start on the opposite wing to Banahan, with Anthony Watson at full-back and Kyle Eastmond and Ollie Devoto linking up in the centres.

I've noticed a tiny visual glitch on MAP01 (look at the window) - http://i.imgur.com/XFmue.jpg
I think there was too many monsters in some buildings on MAP02. They were fighting each other too often.
Also, the new weapons look out of place IMO. Low-res sprites would fit better, I think.

Thanks for your comments!! I started map 04, it´ll be a Sunken Ghost Ship, here´s 2 shots:
Oh I know this bug, but I simply can´t fix it. I know it´s related with the stacked sectors in the grate at the ceiling, but I couldn´t find a position for them that didn´t bug. If someone know something I could try there, please let me know.
I deleted some monsters in map 02, I know what buildings you´re talking about. And about the weapons, there are some nice details in the pistol that wouldn´t work in low-res, I´ll keep them this way.

I have a 2-story colonial. The furnance is in the basement and we have baseboard heat. On the 2nd floor you can hear the water rushing through the heating pipes. The first floor is fine, but it's quite loud upstairs. Is there air in the pipes leading to the 2nd floor?? Any thoughts on what is causing this annoying sound?? Thanks

U.S. and Russian negotiators failed Tuesday to agree on the role of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, Iran and various opposition forces.
Talks backed by President Obama to end the Syrian civil war have been canceled after U.S. and Russian negotiators failed to agree on whether Syrian dictator Bashar Assad should be forced out of office as a condition for peace.
"We were hoping that we'd be in a position to announce a date today, unfortunately we're not," United Nations-Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi told reporters after meeting with senior diplomats in Geneva, according to RIA Novosti, a Russian news service.
"We're still hoping that we'll be able to have the conference before the end of the year," Brahimi said.
The news comes as bombs targeting the entrance of a landmark Ottoman railway building in Damascus and a feared security agency in Syria's southeast killed at least 16 people on Wednesday.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks, but rebels tied to al-Qaeda have previously claimed bombings of security institutions and have also targeted the center of the capital.
Talks broke down Tuesday because U.S. and Russian negotiators disagreed, among other things, over how the future leaders of Syria would be determined. Assad's government said it would not agree to step down, and Russia insisted Iran take part in the talks, which negotiators had told reporters were set for Nov. 23.
Bernadette Meehan, a spokeswoman for Obama's National Security Council, said the U.S. and United Nations never committed to the date. But she said that the U.S. is seeking a date for talks when Assad opponents are unified because talks are "the only way to end the bloodshed."
Representatives of the Syrian rebellion as well as Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry have said that the aim of the negotiations is for Assad to leave. However, Assad said as recently as this week that he will not resign as part of any peace deal.
The talks were scheduled in the hope that they would end a war that has cost more than 100,000 lives, according to the United Nations. Assad's forces, assisted by Iran and the U.S.-designated terrorist group Hezbollah, continue to pound rebel forces in various cities.
Obama has made the talks the main thrust of his Syria policy. He has declined to provide significant military support to rebel factions to rid the country of Assad and al-Qaeda influence, as pushed for by some in Congress such as Sen. John McCain.
Militant groups linked to al-Qaeda have sent forces to Syria to fight for the rebels, and those forces have been setting up Islamic law in regions they control.
Brahimi said the main reason for the cancellation of the talks is that the Syrian opposition is divided and "not ready" for negotiations.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov blamed the United States for being unable to pull together the rebel factions and bring them to the table. Russia is an ally of Assad and has been supplying his military with arms and equipment.
"It is not just the representation of the opposition that is required, but the participation of an opposition delegation of a broad range of opposition forces. And this is what the Americans are failing to achieve," he said, according to RIA Novosti.
The Supreme Military Council, a group of Syrians opposed to Assad that is overseeing many of the rebel forces, told USA TODAY it refuses to join the talks if they do not focus on ending Assad's rule and trying him for war crimes.
The group says it seeks to establish democratic reforms in Syria but its brigades include those that seek an Islamic state and others that don't.
"We want this bloodbath to end, but we want a clear guarantee this Geneva II will end the war in Syria, that Bashar al-Assad will have no future in Syria or any kind of solution," Louay Mokdad, spokesman for the Supreme Military Council, told USA TODAY last week.

Pam is married and she is the mother of two daughters. She starts work May 23, from an office in the Carbon County Courthouse building.

Two Browns improve, Cribbs limited
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Sep 20 2012 5:19PM
As the Cleveland Browns continued along in their week of preparations for the Buffalo Bills, two players improved well enough to become full participants during Thursday's practice.
Starting defensive tackle Billy Winn (head) and backup left tackle Oniel Cousins (ankle) were but upgraded and fully took part in the session. They join starting linebacker Scott Fujita (knee), running back Trent Richardson (knee) and wide receiver Greg Little (back) as the full participants listed on the injury report.
The Browns still have three players limited including return specialist Joshua Cribbs, who is dealing with a knee ailment. Backup defensive end Juqua Parker (foot) and backup safety Ray Ventrone (hand) were the two other limited players.
Linebacker James-Michael Johnson and tight end Alex Smith both did not participate for the second straight day. After practice on Friday, teams will unveil the official injury status for their players heading in to the weekend.
The Bills (1-1) and Browns (0-2) square off on Sunday at Cleveland Browns Stadium.
