Robin van Persie has urged Arsenal not to let recent defeats weigh heavily on their minds ahead of Sunday's big FA Cup clash with Aston Villa.
Three consecutive league defeats have made the start of 2012 a frustrating one but the captain wants his team-mates to embrace the opportunity to go far in the world's oldest cup competition - especially since a number of top-flight rivals have bitten the dust.
In his captain's notes for the Official Matchday Programme, Van Persie said: "We're going from scratch in a sense this afternoon. The FA Cup brings a different atmosphere, often with more away fans in the stadium, and a chance to think about something other than league football.
"I'd like us to do that against Villa – it's been painful to lose three in a row, but this game is a different matter and it's more productive to view it freshly rather than carrying the weight of those defeats.
"We know we have a big opportunity because after this round a lot of big Premier League sides will have been knocked out and we must be ready to take advantage."
Villa are never easy opponents, and come into the match full of confidence after a 3-2 win at Wolves in which new striker Robbie Keane scored twice. Van Persie is eager to take them on, though, and expects the unexpected.
"[Villa's] is a dangerous line-up but a nice challenge for us," he stated. "We'll have to play with our hearts and keep going regardless of any situation in the game – because anything can happen in the FA Cup, and that's why I love this competition."

Early voting kicks off today in Summit County
October 21, 2012
Two weeks before the presidential election, the first polling place ballots in Summit County will be cast today as election officials launch early voting with vote centers in Breckenridge and Frisco.
With public interest and, historically, voter participation at a peak during presidential election years, early voting and mail-in ballots offer alternatives for the public to the long lines and up to two-hour waits that can accumulate at the polls on Election Day.
Early voting locations will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., weekdays through Nov. 2 at the County Courthouse in Breckenridge and the Buffalo Mountain Room at the County Commons in Frisco.
Voters will be able to fill out and submit either paper or electronic ballots at the polling places. Election officials will also be accepting mail ballots at the early voting locations.
Polling places tend to become busier as Election Day nears, according to Summit County Clerk and Recorder Kathy Neel.
In 2008, 87 percent of Summit County's eligible voters turned out for the presidential election, and local election officials say they expect similarly high participation this year.
Voters also have the option of submitting ballots by mail. Mail ballots were sent out to eligible voters Oct. 15. Local election officials say voters who are expecting their ballot to arrive in the mail should contact the county clerk and recorder's office if they have not received it by Thursday.
Mail ballots can be returned via post or in person, but must be received by the clerk's office in Breck by no later than 7 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 6.
Ballots cannot be mailed out after Oct. 30.
Voters can apply for a mail ballot online at http://www.govotecolorado.com.
Additional questions or concerns about voting procedures should be directed to the Summit County Clerk and Recorder's Office at (970) 453-3479.

Yesterday, the White House released a long-awaited set of recommendations that are focused on helping individuals take greater control of how their data is collected and used for online marketing purposes. It includes what's being referred to as a "Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights."
The language is vague. The timeline to completion is long. The guidelines, for now, are "opt-in" for organizations. All true.
But folks? The glory days of scraping and selling and repurposing customer data are over. The Oval Office has spoken on the issue of privacy and personal data, and its bill of rights is crystal clear: Tell me what you're collecting, how you're using it, protect it well, give me a copy, and give me a chance to correct it, delete it, or opt out entirely.
Sound familiar? It should.

Clean & Clear's Soothing Eye Makeup RemoverTuesday, September 01, 2009
One of my big obsessions is eye makeup remover. My favorite is definitely Lancome's Bi-Facil, which seems to be able to remove any mascara in just a few swipes. But, I don't like that it is so expensive, and that I'm forced to deal with a SA that is trying to sell me eye shadow and a gloss to go with it. Sometimes I want to chat and play with colors, but sometimes I just want to buy my eye makeup remover and get out of there. So, I'm perpetually on the hunt for another remover that works just as well, but costs less and is something I can pick up next time I also need to buy kleenex. So, available at Target is great.
While I've found some products that are decent, I haven't found any removers yet that are close to the Lancome. This remover from Clean & Clear just might be the closest I've found yet! It removes about 95% of my mascara quickly and easily, it rinses off well and is cheap/easily purchased. It doesn't remove waterproof mascara quite as easily, but in 2 cotton rounds it will remove all of waterproof mascara. This is quite the feat, I've found most products remove about 60% of waterproof mascara and then a residual that gets clumpy and builds up on my lashes.
So, while not quite the same as my beloved Lancome product, this Clean & Clear is definitely a very acceptable alternative, at a fraction of the price!

I'm going to give this a try. I'm tired of spending too much on eye makeup remover.ReplyDelete
I really like the Rimmel make-up remover.ReplyDelete
I didn't like the Lancome because I find it too oily.
Worth a shot, I say!
Lancome's Bi-Facil is my favorite, too. But, its too expensive. sonia kashuk has an eye makeup remover at Target called 'remove'. It is similar to the Bi-Facil in that it is both water and oil that needs to be shaken. I like it very much. However, I do not use waterproof mascara.
The eye-makeup remover from Mary Kay is in my opinion an exact dupe of Lancome's. I'm not sure how much cheaper it is but I love it.ReplyDelete
I love comments! Please ask away, provide info on how you liked something, etc. Note that spam, comments with random links (which I count as spam), anything not in english (again, spam) and comments that are completely unrelated to anything will all be deleted.

Spyware, adware, trackware and all the other parasites on the web have been around as long as free downloads have been. I remember when I first started writing the Downloads of the Week articles Steve told me that I needed to pay careful attention to the Privacy agreements. He wanted to make absolute sure that we weren't suggesting that people invite malicious code into their PC's. Privacy agreements are only one of a number of procedures I perform on a potential new download because I don't trust them. I run anti-spyware/virus, I also use unsecured and outdated browsers to see if there's any spyware bound to the download or site waiting to be attached to my system. It's what I call a baited ambush.
Basically there are a lot of really bad things going on behind the scenes with some programs and it's been getting really bad lately. Between companies exploiting their users to protect their products, and software writers that make free software that once installed attacks you, sends you pop-ups, or what ever else it's designed to do. How does the average end-user stay unaffected by this adware yet still enjoy the "Good" software? You have to hunt and read sifting through the devious applications, it's a full time job, believe me I know. There's a lot of junk out there that sounds really good in its descriptions, complete with Website awards and bogus pristine user reviews.
I have always thought that there should be tougher restrictions in place to stop the install of deceptive software from installing so easily on end-users systems. Standards that are written in a way that program writers can't simply side step them with some clever loophole that they had found in the incomplete laws as they have been doing. A set of standards that when met would get a seal of approval that the end-users can easily identify and know that what they are installing is safe and no intrusive.
Well I think that ball has started to roll and I personally want to thank Sony. They aren't the first company to be surreptitiously installing software to their customers PC's but they did it the best. If you remember from my article on the subject last week, Sony Installed a DRM (Digital Rights Manager) with a number of their audio CD's that installed a Rootkits anyone's PC who agreed to the Privacy Statement that made no mention to the Rootkits installation. This rootkit was almost impossible to uninstall, would cripple your optical drives if you did, made the system unstable, and created huge security holes for future hackers. After all of this Sony still insisted that they didn't do anything wrong and that they were well within their legal boundaries to secretly install software to protect their product at the expense of their customers.
I believe this was the stone that started the avalanche of new legislation coming down on adware and the new "Trusted Download Program" from TRUSTe that is being backed by some of the biggest names on the Internet.
Industry leaders such as AOL, CA, CNET Networks, Verizon and Yahoo have all backed the new certification software created by TRUSTe a nonprofit industry leader in promoting privacy policy disclosure, informed user consent, and consumer education. By early next year this group of companies will get a list of "Certified" programs. Certified means that the programs have met the criteria put in place to completely and plainly inform the customer of what exactly is being installed on their PC's amoung other things. For instance one thing in particular that companies would like to see is that all programs once installed list themselves in the Add/Remove Programs list uninstalling easily and completely.
This certification program should launch in beta in early 2006 and if all works well this will add another layer of protection for customers. The affects of this will mean better relationships between websites and their customers while at the same time creating incentives for software manufacturers to create "better" applications. Maybe with the right support and more companies jumping onboard with the certification program the summit of the spyware invasion will pass leaving a safer more enjoyable Internet in it's wake.

An 8-bit video-game character attempts to shed his bad-guy image by escaping into a popular first-person shooter, but inadvertently wreaks havoc in the video-game universe by freeing a digital villain who can only be contained with the help of a most unlikely ally in this colorful animated adventure. Wreck-It Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) is the arch nemesis of Fix-It Felix (voice of Jack McBrayer), one of the most beloved video-game icons of all time. In a noble bid to prove he is more than the sum of his programming, Ralph sneaks from his cozy retro home into a highly advanced combat game featuring battle-hardened soldier Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch), and strives to prove his bravery by winning a medal. In the process, however, Ralph accidentally frees the greatest threat the video-game world has ever seen. But all hope is not lost, because if Ralph can just convince unpredictable cart racer Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) to help set things right, perhaps he can finally unleash his inner hero and save the arcade from certain destruction. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

TELL SOUTHERN: Invest in Wind Energy for the South
We're fed up with Southern Company.
The Georgia-based electric utility is one of the worst polluters in the US, and yet it has consistently obstructed and delayed the development of affordable clean energy that would create thousands of good green jobs in the southeastern US.
Southern Company has actively blocked state legislation to promote solar energy and has delayed the development of offshore wind on Georgia's coast for FIVE YEARS NOW — even though Southern Company's own research demonstrates that wind energy would benefit the the company, electric ratepayers, and the environment. At the same time Southern Company operates the three largest carbon-polluting plants in the US and wants to build the first new nuclear power plants in 30 years.
Enough is enough: Tell Southern Company to invest in wind »
South Carolina utility Santee Cooper is looking for investors for its trail-blazing Palmetto Wind Project which seeks to install nearly 80 MW of offshore wind off the coast of South Carolina. This regional approach to the development of offshore wind will allow Southern Company to quickly offer its customers wind-generated power, and by partnering with Santee Cooper, Southern Company could learn more about how to offer even more offshore wind energy for its customers in Georgia.

|JakodaCD OA
Since he hasn't had much if any training and he is almost 2, I would start as you would with a puppy, work on ONE thing at a time, proof it, work it, and when he gets that ONE thing, move on to the next...and I would start with BASICS..
Patience and consistency, being clear and fair in what your asking/expecting is key
Many of the behaviors you are seeing is calming signals. He isn't understanding what you are asking for. He is picking up on your panic attacks, more confusion.
Forget the alpha stuff, you aren't a dog; but be a leader. Calm deep breathing will help you work through the drama queen antics and remain in control.
Locate a trainer experienced with GSD and working breeds. I would suggest to think about some private classes to begin with to work on the relationship between you and handling skills. That will give *you* the confidence needed as you progress through training.
|If you have not really worked with him until a month ago and he now is almost two. It is going to take a while, you can't fix two years in a month. I would forget about the alpha stuff. This dog sounds more fearful. Work together as a team, Use a lot of rewards, and try to remain calm. He knows when you are angry with him. He is not human, does not think like one. It would be worth it, to get a good trainer who knows shepherds.
Here are the details:
He's almost (2)
I've had him since he was 3/4 months old
He has not had any training that was 100% enforced until about a month ago
So far I'm working on bonding, basic obedience, and leash walking.
An example of a current problem I'm working on is getting him to quit testing boundaries. It all starts with his crate.
He'll exaggerate nervous behaviors (lowered ears and head, wide eyes looking up, lip licking, and passive aggressive submission) to speed up the person by placing guilt or peer pressure tactics to open the crate quicker as if he has to go pee right that second. But the very second the release word is cue-ed, the sad puppy drama stops and he's all happy doodle.
As he exits the crate, he does a play bow with a yawn and body shake where he gives off this "Ok so from this point on everything is just a game." Because that's what he does to avoid anything I ask him: play bow, stretching, shaking his body like he just had a bath, and huffing/puffing avoidance. So it's like a control dance with him, he throws out these 'in between buffering' behaviors whenever he doesn't want to be told what to do.
When I try and control him from getting what he wants without working for it or while he is purposely wrestling me to gain his way, he throws large, HUGE tantrums: body rolling, belly flashing, heavy panting and forced breathing, eyes looking for contact, wailing, screaming, yelping...and as mean as it sounds he's totally faking it. I think he can smell my panic attacks as I deal with him...because that is exactly what happens. Or outside at least.
Inside the home, I enforce the NILIF and he get's it, but is still very anxious to be quick about getting the reward. Like he's not patient, and waiting for him to calm himself down takes a really long time.
I honestly feel like I'm fighting him for position to be alpha/leader all the time

|Cassidy's Mom
How old is he? How long have you had him? How much training has he had, and what kind of training? Is he not obeying commands in public that he complies with 100% at home in a low distraction environment? Or are these commands still a work in progress even at home?
Without more information it's really difficult to give any kind of decent advice, but basically, in general, I'd lower the criteria any time I'm asking for behaviors in a new, more distracting environment. It's always better to set your dog up for success rather than failure, by not asking for anything you don't KNOW he's capable of giving you under those exact circumstances. In that case, I'd simply wait for my dog to offer up any sort of rewardable behavior, (such as eye contact or redirecting from the environment to me) then mark and reward it, rather than cue it and have him blow me off.
|When ours doesn't listen, my husband just steps on the leash and stands still, arms folded. To the side of the road ofcourse, if we are walking. And waits till the dog sits and looks at him and has become much calmer. A couple of times the dog tried to grab the leash and pull, we put an end to that by rubbing some Vicks on the leash. Also playing a good game of fetch before a walk or just going outdoors to a vet or a training class helps get rid of some of their energy. We would also sometimes run with the dog for 5 - 10 minutes before settling into a walk.
|What exactly are you asking, in what situation, and what is his reaction?
|I've been there.
It's very common. Tantrums usually escalate until they realize they don't get what they want EVER, then the extinguish.
If it were my dog, I would just stand stick still. Let him toss him self around, bark, jump, be a jerk. But I would not move a muscle. Sometimes the battle is won by the one who keeps his calm.
If people give you a weird look, I would appease with a " temper tantrum, trying to keep my cool". Most people get that. As long as you are not getting frustrated and taking it out on the dog. Just standing still, take a breath. I have actually been known to check my email. Keeps me calm.

Novak misquoted Dean for second time in three days
Research ››› ››› JEREMY CLUCHEY
Syndicated columnist and CNN host Robert Novak again misquoted Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean in order to assert that Dean believes the Bush administration's claim that Social Security is in crisis. Novak first made this false claim on the February 26 edition of CNN's The Capital Gang.
From the February 28 edition of CNN's Inside Politics:
NOVAK: He [Dean] spoke at Cornell University last week, and the only paper that covered this was the Cornell daily student paper. And he said, yes, Social Security has a big problem, over the years it's going to lose about 80 percent of the benefits. That, Judy, is not the Democratic line. The Democratic line is, "There is no problem." So Howard Dean says what he thinks is the truth. Often it is the truth. He's going to be a lot of fun as national chairman.
In fact, as The Cornell Daily Sun reported in its coverage of Dean's February 23 speech at the university, Dean did not say of Social Security that "over the years it's going to lose about 80 percent of the benefits," as Novak claimed, but rather that "if Social Security were left alone for 30 years, benefits would be reduced to 80 percent of what it is now," meaning that the program would lose about 20 percent of benefits. The Daily Sun article further noted that Dean "would not endorse" privatizing of Social Security, adding that "[h]e acknowledged that while there were indeed problems with the program, turning to Wall Street was not the answer."
The Republican National Committee quickly picked up Novak's lie and promoted it on the RNC website, complete with a transcript and video.
The Social Security trustees projected in their 2004 report that the current system could pay out full benefits for 37 years, or until 2042; it could then pay 73 percent of currently scheduled benefits immediately thereafter and 68 percent of benefits in 2078. According to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office's 2004 projections, the current system could pay out full benefits until 2052, 81 percent of currently scheduled benefits in 2053, and 71 percent in 2100.
Novak is a regular guest on Inside Politics during a segment called "Novak's Notebook."

text: New state employee retirement health insurance program State employees who meet certain criteria and retire by January 31 have an opportunity to pay lower health insurance premiums under the terms of a new provision signed into law by Governor Deval Patrick on August 7. The new provision, called the "Healthcare Contribution Program," establishes an 85-15 split on Group Insurance Commission premiums for employees who formally file with the State Retirement Board by October 1 and then retire by January 31, 2010. As a result of legislative action, health insurance premiums for current state employees recently increased from 15 to 20 percent for those hired before July 1, 2003. This benefit is available to state employees in the State Employees Retirement System who are eligible to retire by the January 31 deadline. Employees who elect the Healthcare Contribution Program will not receive their entire sick leave buyback or vacation pay at the time of their retirement. Instead, the amount will be paid in four equal installments in January 2010, July 2010, July 2011 and July 2012. One outstanding issue remains at this time. There is a question about whether this benefit is available to employees enrolled in the Optional Retirement Program. The MTA is working to clarify this issue and will send out another notification with an answer to this question as soon as possible. Employees interested in the Healthcare Contribution Program are advised to contact the State Retirement Board and the human resources office at their place of work.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is an inherited disorder in which clusters of cysts develop primarily within your kidneys. Cysts are noncancerous round sacs containing water-like fluid. The cysts vary in size and, as they accumulate more fluid, they can grow very large.
Although kidneys usually are the most severely affected organs, polycystic kidney disease can cause cysts to develop in your liver and elsewhere in your body. The disease causes a variety of serious complications.
A common complication of polycystic kidney disease is high blood pressure. Kidney failure is another common problem for people with polycystic kidney disease.
Polycystic kidney disease varies greatly in its severity, and some complications are preventable. Lifestyle changes and medical treatments may help reduce damage to your kidneys from complications, such as high blood pressure.
Polycystic kidney disease symptoms may include:
It's not uncommon for people to have polycystic kidney disease for years without developing signs or symptoms and without knowing they have the disease.
If you have some of the signs and symptoms of polycystic kidney disease, see your doctor to determine what might be causing them. If you have a first-degree relative — parent, sibling or child — with polycystic kidney disease, see your doctor to discuss the pros and cons of screening for this disorder.
Abnormal genes cause polycystic kidney disease, and the genetic defects mean the disease runs in families. Rarely, a genetic mutation can be the cause of polycystic kidney disease.
There are two types of polycystic kidney disease, caused by different genetic flaws:
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Signs and symptoms of ADPKD often develop between the ages of 30 and 40. In the past, this type was called adult polycystic kidney disease, but children can develop the disorder.
Only one parent needs to have the disease in order for it to pass along to the children. If one parent has ADPKD, each child has a 50 percent chance of getting the disease. This form accounts for about 90 percent of cases of polycystic kidney disease.
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). This type is far less common than is ADPKD. The signs and symptoms often appear shortly after birth. Sometimes, symptoms don't appear until later in childhood or during adolescence.
Both parents must have abnormal genes to pass on this form of the disease. If both parents carry a gene for this disorder, each child has a 25 percent chance of getting the disease.
Researchers have identified two genes associated with ADPKD and one associated with ARPKD.
In some cases, a person with ADPKD has no known family history of the disease. However, it's possible that someone in the affected person's family actually did have the disease, but didn't show signs or symptoms before dying of other causes.
In a smaller percentage of cases where no family history is present, ADPKD results from a spontaneous gene mutation.
Complications associated with polycystic kidney disease include:
Loss of kidney function. Progressive loss of kidney function is one of the most serious complications of polycystic kidney disease. Nearly half of those with the disease have kidney failure by age 60.
Polycystic kidney disease can interfere with the ability of your kidneys to keep wastes from building to toxic levels, a condition called uremia. As the disease worsens, end-stage kidney (renal) failure may result, necessitating ongoing kidney dialysis or a transplant to prolong your life.
Development of an aneurysm in the brain. A balloon-like bulge in a blood vessel (aneurysm) in your brain can cause bleeding (hemorrhage) if it ruptures. People with polycystic kidney disease have a higher risk of aneurysm, especially those younger than age 50.
The risk is higher if you have a family history of aneurysm or if you have uncontrolled high blood pressure.
If you have signs and symptoms of polycystic kidney disease, you're likely to start by seeing your family doctor or a general practitioner. However, you may be referred to a doctor who specializes in kidney health (nephrologist).
Because appointments can be brief, and there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well-prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready, and what to expect from your doctor.
Use these tips to help prepare for your appointment and help your doctor better assess your condition:
For polycystic kidney disease, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared, don't hesitate to ask other questions as they occur to you during your appointment.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions, such as:
For polycystic kidney disease, certain tests can detect the size and number of kidney cysts you have and evaluate the amount of healthy kidney tissue, including:
Treating polycystic kidney disease involves dealing with the following signs, symptoms and complications in their early stages:
High blood pressure. Controlling high blood pressure may delay the progression of the disease and slow further kidney damage. Combining a low-sodium, low-fat diet that's moderate in protein and calorie content with not smoking, increasing exercise and reducing stress may help control high blood pressure.
However, medications are usually needed to control high blood pressure. Medications called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may be used to control high blood pressure in people with polycystic kidney disease, though more than one drug may be necessary for good blood pressure control.
Pain. Chronic pain, usually located in your back or your side, is a common symptom of polycystic kidney disease. Often, the pain is mild and you can control it with over-the-counter medications containing acetaminophen.
For some people, however, the pain is more severe and constant. In rare cases, your doctor may recommend surgery to remove cysts if they're large enough to cause pressure and pain.
Aneurysms. If you have polycystic kidney disease and a family history of ruptured brain (intracranial) aneurysms, your doctor may recommend regular screening for intracranial aneurysms.
If an aneurysm is discovered, surgical clipping of the aneurysm to reduce the risk of bleeding may be an option, depending on its size. Nonsurgical treatment of small aneurysms may involve controlling high blood pressure and high blood cholesterol, as well as quitting smoking.
As is the case with other chronic illnesses, having polycystic kidney disease may make you feel overwhelmed. But you don't have to deal with your illness alone. The support of friends and family is important in dealing with a chronic illness. In addition, a counselor, psychologist, psychiatrist or clergy member may be able to help.
You may also want to consider joining a support group. Although support groups aren't for everyone, they can provide helpful information about treatments and coping. And being with people who understand what you're going through may make you feel less alone.
Ask your doctor about support groups in your community or contact the PKD Foundation at 800-PKD-CURE (800-753-2873) to find out if there's a chapter in your area.
If you have polycystic kidney disease and you're considering having children, a genetic counselor can help you assess your risk of passing the disease to your offspring.
Keeping your kidneys as healthy as possible may help prevent some of the complications of this disease. One of the most important ways you can protect your kidneys is by managing your blood pressure.
Here are some tips for keeping your blood pressure in check:
Pediatric expertise. Mayo Clinic in Minnesota offers diagnosis, care and treatment in a child-friendly environment for children who have autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) or complications of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
In Mayo's efficient system, your child can see multiple specialists and receive testing and treatment in days, not months. The care team also includes nurse specialists, social workers, dietitians and behavioral health specialists.
Novel treatments. Mayo Clinic is at the forefront of research into medications and therapies for managing polycystic kidney disease. Mayo Clinic researchers have discovered many of the genes that cause different forms of polycystic kidney disease.
This ongoing research means that in addition to standard therapies, you may also have access to new or emerging polycystic kidney disease therapies not available elsewhere.
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., ranks No. 1 for kidney disorders in the U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals rankings. Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Ariz., ranks among the Best Hospitals for kidney disorders by U.S. News & World Report. Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Fla., is ranked high performing for kidney disorders by U.S. News & World Report.
In many cases, your doctor can identify polycystic kidney disease based on imaging tests of your kidneys and other organs to make the diagnosis. However, genetic tests can also be used when imaging test results are inconclusive.
For genetic testing, special blood tests are given to you and to family members who are known to have or not have the condition. Results of your blood test are compared to those of your family members.
Genetic testing is often used when one family member considers donating a kidney to another family member for a living-donor kidney transplant.
Mayo Clinic works with hundreds of insurance companies and is an in-network provider for millions of people. In most cases, Mayo Clinic doesn't require a physician referral. Some insurers require referrals or may have additional requirements for certain medical care. All appointments are prioritized on the basis of medical need.
Mayo Clinic in Arizona offers up-to-date diagnosis and treatment options for adults with polycystic kidney disease. Diagnosis and treatment involves doctors from nephrology and hypertension and the Transplant Center, as well as other specialists as necessary.

For appointments or more information, call the Central Appointment Office at 904-953-0853 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday or complete an online appointment request form.
Mayo Clinic in Minnesota offers up-to-date diagnosis and treatment options for adults and children who have polycystic kidney disease. Mayo Clinic's Minnesota location has one of the world's largest groups of practicing nephrologists (kidney specialists), including a polycystic kidney disease research group devoted to the study of polycystic kidney disease.
Care of people with polycystic kidney disease is coordinated through the Inherited Renal Disease Clinic, which brings together kidney and liver specialists, medical geneticists, radiologists, urologists, neurologists and neurosurgeons, as well as liver and transplant surgeons. This team provides patients with a comprehensive medical evaluation and treatment plan. The federally funded PKD Center research program has also been established at Mayo Clinic.
For appointments or more information, call the Central Appointment Office at 507-538-3270 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central time, Monday through Friday or complete an online appointment request form.
At Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, specialists in nephrology and hypertension, pediatrics, pediatric kidney and liver transplant, and radiology who have extensive experience in managing autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease work together to develop comprehensive treatment plans for children.
Children who require hospitalization receive care at Mayo Eugenio Litta Children's Hospital. Children who require dialysis are cared for at Mayo Clinic Hospital, Saint Marys Campus or by the Mayo Clinic peritoneal dialysis team.
See information on patient services at the three Mayo Clinic locations, including transportation options and lodging.
Mayo Clinic is a leader in polycystic kidney disease research. Mayo Clinic researchers discovered:
Laboratory-based research at Mayo Clinic has focused on:
Mayo research has shown that a new drug (tolvaptan) can dramatically slow the development and progression of polycystic kidney disease in animal models.
Mayo researchers have also shown that another drug (octreotide) delays the development of both polycystic kidney disease and polycystic liver disease and is a potential treatment option for people with liver involvement.
These medications are now in clinical trials. In addition, nephrologists at Mayo Clinic are working to understand how to prevent the progression of kidney (renal) disease in patients with polycystic kidney disease.
Read more about the extensive polycystic kidney disease research taking place at Mayo Clinic.
The Mayo Nephrology Collaborative Group — a consortium of nephrologists located across the United States — develops and conducts studies aimed at improving treatment of patients with renal diseases, including polycystic kidney disease.

It only sees "id" as a injectable point so how would i inject into the 2nd parameter? I know of sqlmap -u site.com -p parameter but when i try to put in -p c or -p "c" or -p c=2 it never sees it anyway...only the id=6. I couldent find an example online of it being used like that so i thought i would ask here

i made this with some app on my phone, it's totally sweet. i said part of the satipatthana sutta into it and this is what it came out as.
EDIT: also, when you think about it, this is what the buddha would have sounded like according to that one weird sutta (digha nikaya 30) where they describe him as a fish man thing with cow eyes, webbed feet and hands, a tongue so long it can reach his ears, arms so long his hands easily reach below his knees when standing fully upright (yes that's weird, try it. lol), and finally it says he has a voice like a bird! so there you go, auto tune high pitched melodic voice = buddha!
how else could he have a voice like a bird other than being high pitched and melodic? surly hearing him talk was like a beautiful song. in truth i don't get this sutta at all, i'm kind of just joking around. there are many more suttas that imply he was a perfectly regular looking fellow than there are ones that say he looked like that. people got him confused with his monks and couldn't tell them apart. one guy was even having a conversation with him and it was just the two of them hanging out in a room and it took clues in the conversation for the guy to figure out it was him! i think if he was some bizarre, severely deformed fish/cow/bird thing everyone would have spotted him immediately, and many would have ran away screaming as that sounds like a yakkha more than a buddha! i once drew a sketch of him with all the "marks" and laughed for so long at how hilarious it looked.

Cards can also be printed out immediately by visiting www.CTRxDiscountCard.comand and selecting New Haven from the drop-down menu. The New Haven Prescription Discount Card is currently accepted at 22 pharmacies in New Haven and 646 pharmacies statewide, with more pharmacies expected to sign on.
For more information on the card, please click here.
The Boat House at Canal Dock
On Monday, the City of New Haven broke ground on the Boat House at Canal Dock. Of the many improvements that we�ve made in New Haven, this latest one holds special significance. For over five decades--since the construction of Interstate 95 along New Haven�s harbor�our city has been cut off from one of its greatest natural resources, the New Haven Harbor. The construction of the Boathouse at Canal Dock takes steps to remedy that and will provide residents and visitors to New Haven the opportunity to enjoy the harbor and water recreation.
The Boathouse at Canal Dock will be used for public access to the waterfront, for boating access and to tell the story of New Haven�s natural and cultural environment, of the Harbor, and for recreational programs. It will provide a central facility in New Haven for water recreation including youth rowing programs, public boating programs, and marine education programs and exhibits.
The construction of the Boathouse at Canal Dock will be completely funded by the federal and state government as mitigation for the loss of a historic structure, the Adee boathouse, which was built 1914 and demolished 2009 to allow for the construction of the new Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge.
Next Hill-to-Downtown Meeting to be held on September 25th
Residents are invited to the next Hill-to-Downtown meeting, which will be held on Wednesday, September 25th, at 6:30 pm at the Hill Central School.
At this meeting, the City�s planning team and consultants will present the Draft Master Plan framework for the future of this district and will provide another opportunity for community input as efforts continue to shape a plan for the district.

I just thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Jon and I'm based over in Uxbridge on the outermost rim of London. I've been having a read of this site and I'm frankly amazed at the level of detail that I've found.
I'm a member of a group that troops in and around London. At the moment, I have a replica Dalek that I use but it takes up the entire car and I can't take my son with me to events so I decided I need a costume. Since the Dalek is Doctor Who based, I wanted something from the Star Wars universe so I could broaden my range. Several of my fellow members have made custom Mandos and I decided I'd really like to do one too - I'd actually like to do an ESB Boba Fett but a member of the group already has one and I don't want to tread on any toes. They directed me to this site and I can see why.
I'm looking forward to the challenges of getting a quality costume together and hopefully making some new friends too.

Nice. I'm sure you have a great plan for the millions of unwanted children born when abortion is illegal.
So I take it you believe that a womans right to murder granchildren is preminent in all human activities? God, it is so twisted. I hope that your children don't decide that you become inconvienient someday, and one more thing. When we get this Sharia law you don't seem to mind, Do you they think they will start the clitorectomies on older women like you or on the ten year old girls first? Will we be third world enough by then they will use the traditional pocket knife and will the 20% mortality thru infection be acceptable in the world you apparently want here. As I told my children when too young to reason: Reality sucks!
Until you can either figure out a way to prevent unwanted pregnancy, or find/create good homes for children born who were not wanted, you will not have a genuine argument against abortion.
You say, "might there be fewer if women were not paid for having babies? yes." If people are having so many babies to get welfare, then how the heck does that relate to them also aborting? I guess you lost me there.
there might be more unwanted babies so you sanction murder.what if there were fewer unwanted pregnancies because women knew that abortion wasn't an option?+ the very women you'd like to be having abortions, aren't. i understand what you are saying, but to me, a thing is either right or it's wrong. i can't see how you sanction murder, if you see it as murder, because the result of ending the murder might be more unwanted babies. following that line of logic, you can justify a lot of nasty stuff.
If so, then I murdered one of my own children when I was rushed to the ER for an ectopic pregnancy
I think it's disingenuous to suggest women choose abortion over birth control. Really? Seems like an awfully dramatic choice.
I think there's a choice between wrong and more wrong. I think it's a sin (quite literally) for children to be neglected, abused, brutalized, ignored. I also think abortion is wrong (for me, in my life, with all my options). Which do I think is the greater sin
Are you suggesting children can raise themselves out of a crippling childhood?
I still don't think we should ask other kids to

"GLBT" newspaper's transmisogynistic framing of assault erases Janey Kay's gender
How is Janey Kay identified in the headline of this piece?
Though this attack has tones of cissexism, transmisogyny, and straight-up misogyny (a strange man attacking a woman in a dark public space), Ms. Key is not a woman in this article. She's barely even a person. She's just ... a transgender. And Ray Young's manhood is unmarked: he is a gay man, not cis, just, you know, regular.
Headlines are important to defining the key elements the writer or newspaper wants to highlight in the story that follows. And in this headline, the article or headline writer chooses to identify the perpetrator's gender, and clarify his position with two adjectives - drunk and gay.
Ms. Kay, however, is nothing. She is reduced to the adjective, without any mention that she's a woman on the recieving end of violence from a man. She's just a transgender. Practically an "it".
And no, it's not just because it's shorter to say transgender. Trans woman takes no longer to write.
This article from Metro Weekly spends as much time defending the attacker as it does covering the attack. He was drunk, he supports local gay areas, and after all - Ms. Kay attacked him! After all, he's one of the family! (What is "the family"? Is being cis necessary for inclusion?) This is particularly disappointing from a newspaper that claims to cater to the trans community by tacking on the "T" to the GLB.
Violence against women is unacceptable, and I'm pleased the perpetrator in this incident is being held responsible. But in coverage of such violence, it's crucial to remember that this is, indeed, violence against women. Ms. Kay is not "a transgender"; she's a woman, a trans woman, attacked by a man, a cis man, for not fitting into his gendered, sexist, cissexist expectations, for not being "part of the family". Reducing someone to an adjective is dehumanizing and degendering. Referring to her by simply her transition status is sexist, cissexist, and transmisogynistic.

GLBT publications often forget that little t at the end when they operate. This doesn't really surprise me.ReplyDelete
Just more cis privilege at work.
I mean, geez, you'd know that they would never title a story as "a gay assaults a transgender"
Why do they think the former is bad but the latter is okay? Because they don't really give a damn about trans folk.
I feel similarly about the term lesbian-- why is it a noun, while "gay men" are allowed to have "gay" as an adjective to their identity. It's as though gay women magically transform into some alien creature..ReplyDelete
A good post. I thought this context might illuminate it further tho.ReplyDelete
This was most definitely a hate crime. The hair pull is a typical feature of hate crimes against trans women.
Basically the perp thinks that she or he is entitled to show that the trans woman is "really fake" and by extension, her body parts are not real, not flesh and blood.
They always are, of course, and the drawing of blood only enrages the attacker further. People will do just about anything to erase and destroy our lives; it is never a simple bashing. That pattern of proving us as fake by ripping chunks of our bodies off is a central feature to many of these attacks, just as much as the media is complicit in stripping us of our humanity and our womanhood.
That woman is very lucky to be alive, and we are all lucky that that gay misogynist is being punished, and forced to confront his hateful nature, and the drug abuse abetting it.
@colewardell Your claim is somewhat appropriative, unless, like me, you are all of trans and a lesbian. If not, you may want to think of how you can even make that comparison at all.
"I let her know I was part of the family." Yeah I guess you did asshole. You must be the abusive alcoholic husband in the family.ReplyDelete
Gay as an adjective to describe women is certainly sometimes used, though it strikes me as a little archaic. If anything, I would've guessed that the decline in it's usage was because gay women were objecting to it, and were trying to emphasize a separateness from gay men.
Oh god. So, so horrible.ReplyDelete
Thank you for the context, voz. :(
I really like this blog so far -redundant analysis of em em notwithstanding - but I have a problem with your use of GLBT. The acronym was originally and usually still is LGBT. the placing of the G before the L for absolutely no reason just reaffirms cis male privilege above lesbians, bisexual people and trans folk. Also, as an aside, a few extra letters would not go astray; A to represent asexuals, I to represent intersexed people, and Q to represent queer/questioning people also. Many queer folk don't fall into the LGBT binary.ReplyDelete
Brian; as a queer woman who sometimes describes herself as gay, I prefer it to lesbian as lesbianism is so fetishized in western culture. However I know other lesbians who absolutely will not self describe as gay as they consider it a gendered term.ReplyDelete
HoneyNee, the descriptor "GLBT" is not mine but the newspapers. Thus the quotation marks.ReplyDelete

Agricultural Development Economics provides technical advice through a range of projects and programmes at country and headquarters level related to food security and policy analysis in agriculture and rural development. Our activities fall in two main areas: 1. Support governments in establishing and maintaining analytical capacity related to food insecurity and vulnerability. 2. Research and advisory work to deepen our understanding of factors that affect food security and rural development in countries or regions.
Smallholders and rural poverty Rural households in the developing world are involved in a variety of economic activities, as part of complex livelihood strategies. While agriculture remains important, it is not the sole or sometimes the principal activity of poor people.
Markets, prices and trade The integration of domestic and international markets and trade liberalisation offer countries the opportunity to participate in bigger export markets. They can also take advantage of the reductions in subsidies of developed countries under trade agreements.
Food Security Governance and Right to Food Two elements are fundamental in order to make substantial and rapid progress towards global food security: coherence and convergence among policies and programmes of countries, donors and other stakeholders.
Food security analysis and policy Decision-makers at country, regional and global levels need reliable and timely information on the incidence and causes of food insecurity, malnutrition and vulnerability for improved policy and programme formulation, targeting, and monitoring of progress of interventions aimed at reducing poverty and hunger.
Economics of sustainable agriculture Our work on sustainable agriculture provides analysis and policy insights on how natural resource management can result in enhanced food security, poverty alleviation, and sustainable development.
The State of Food and Agriculture The State of Food and Agriculture (SOFA), first published in 1947, is FAO's original flagship publication. The SOFA report provides a systematically researched, evidence-based analysis that provides an informed and balanced judgment on some of the most controversial policy topics in the field of agriculture and food security.
Long-term perspectives Global perspective studies are based on a multi-disciplinary approach and draw on contributions from all technical divisions in FAO. Long-term papers and reports are presented on diverse topics, including investment, soaring food prices, biofuels and climate change.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Sounds like she may be running lean and the added load when in gear is bringing the idle down. Not for nothing but I recently bought an Edelbrock carb for my stang. Right out of the box the float was sticking, she stumbled on hard lefts and had a dead spot off the line. I took it off, put it back in the box, and made the store take it back. I opted to pay the extra and got a Holley Street Avenger instead. I've used nothing but Holleys for twenty years and I guess I'll be using them for the future as well. I'm going to try and post a shot of the new carb in my photo album, I like the features of the Avenger carb. Tunable secondaries and no more power valve blow-outs. Good luck with yours, I would start with richenning her up a bit and see what she does, recheck timing, and make sure there's no vacuum leaks. See if you can improve it by adjusting the air/fuel screws on the front of the carb before you go rejetting.
|4 Jaw Chuck
|Sounds like timing but could be a combination of carb tuning/vacuum leaks/timing. I would check the timing first and then look for any vacuum leaks. How is your idle mixture set?
tuning edelbrock carbs
I recently swapped my stock manifold/ and q-jet car in favor of an edelbrock RPM manifold and 750cfm carb. My engine is a mild performance about 330hp from an oldsmobile 350. and i was having trouble with the idle i had to crank the idle up other wise it would die while it was in park but driving it in gear it rumbles down REALLY low. is it a vacum problem and messes with my metering rods or is it the jetting?
please email with any answers

Concerns about deer survival, and don't miss the Farm Expo
JOHN HARRIGAN | January 18. 2014 8:57PM
This makes three straight years of mild winters. The result is that vastly more young deer, meaning that spring's fawns, are surviving the winters.
As for predictions, just watching which way the smoke from my outdoor furnace is going pretty much tells it all.
We need a wood splitter at my remote camp, and I found one through the classifieds. Now to get it in.
The splitter came from a logger and scrap-metal dealer in West Milan. We got to talking about various ways to log, and I said that I'd logged my land 20 years ago with an eye toward vigorous new growth and being able to go back and do it all over again 20 years later, which I'm doing.
- - - - -
Parents and grandparents, mark your calendars for Feb. 7 and 8 for the annual Farm and Forest Exposition at the Center of NH-Radisson in Manchester.
Well, the Farm and Forest is the place to go. I'm not really sure how they pull it off, but organizers and exhibitors and related equipment dealers somehow manage to get everything from small tractors, fencing equipment, small (and a few large) animals, hay, grain and sawdust, and everything from retail booths to educational displays to live honeybees into the Radisson's exhibition hall.
And the crowd, from all over the state, is sort of a great big family reunion.
Yet this somehow remains the stealth event surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people in the southern tier who somehow know nothing about it and are lock-stepping to yet another shopping mall. Clip this out, get more details at www.nhfarmandforestexpo.org, grab the kids, and go.

text: This is one olympic champ / multiple world champ I haven't seen much discussed on FSU. She finished 2d to Carol Heiss at the '60 Olympics, then won the '64 Olympics quite convincingly [all 1st place ordinals from the 9 judges]. I believe she was a multiple world champ, too. So, was she really strong in Figures? Good free skater? I think I read that in Squaw Valley she skated before Carol, and was really strong with the double axel which I interpreted to mean she was an athletic skater. I think I also read that she didn't score below 5.8 in the free skate at Innsbruck ['64]. This would all suggest a really dominant skater... I was also curious to know about her post-competitive career. Any involvement in skating? Interesting that Netherlands is radical about Speed Skating, but not figure skating.

OK, here we go with another mad-dash Jango set up. Using a play on my name, trashcan armor, my own jumpsuit almost finished, and a few details on their way, I think I'm off to a good start. Using some pics form Cruzer's grith belt set up, I'm gonna try to make my own. I have the holster and pouch belt coming soon, and I'm trying to get a set of gauntlets, cod, back plate, and knees. For the helmet, I'm going for a Rubies.
I'm sewing the soft parts, minus the glooves, as practice tihs is the second only thing I've done with my newto me/old to the world sewing machine that can sew through 12 layers of a denim8). Starting with the jumpsuit (pics tomorrow), which isn't really I jumpsuit, I've finished the pants and now just need to finish up the collar, zipper, and bottom hem of the shirt. I decided to make it a two piece because I think I'll get better chance at fixing any leaks . I used a modified pajama pants pattern and a modified fleece sweater/jacket pattern. Having a mom for a seamstress really comes in handy. I'm gonna start on the vest tomorrow.
I've gotten the armor pieces cut out, shapped, and ready for sanding and painting. I felt that I wasn't really good enough to make the cod and back plate and actually make them look good, so that's why I'm ordering those pieces.
I used the good ol' electric turkey pot to heat them, and Jedimite's-Mom idea to use duct tape. Works like a charm
And here it is, The Scheding Armor!

'In goal, the Sabres spent most of the season dealing with rumours about Martin Biron getting traded, but now that Mika Noronen is gone, there is less need to make that move (as much as Biron might prefer to start somewhere). If the Sabres are going to move Biron, in a summer that figures to see quite a bit of goalie movement, the Sabres better get quality in return or at least some cap relief along with a decent backup tender.'

David Cameron, leader of Britiain's Conservative Party, pledged to end forced marriages if he became prime minister. He believes the Forced Marriage Act of 2007 does not go far enough to prevent young women from being pressured into marriages against their will in order to please parents. He supports several changes such as raising the minimum age for women who are married abroad, insisting every spouse knows English before arrival, making groom and bride be separately interviewed to ensure there is willingess from both parties to be married, and forcing anyone who wants to get married abroad to register that intent prior to leaving.
We oppose forced marriages, but some of Cameron's ideas could readily backfire. What if a person on vacation falls in love and wants to get married? It is common among many immigrants for the father to go on ahead, earn money, and then send for the wife and children. The Cameron proposal would hnder that process since the wife(my mother) usually learns English after arrival, not before.
