Subj: Ortho-lo makes me psycho
Date: 10/18/2004
I have been on ortho tri-cyclen lo for 4 months now. The first several days I began the Pill, I had nausea and noticed I became more emotional and sensitive. I quickly gained about 10 pounds (My weight has not changed in over 10 years.) I had severe mood swings and bouts of anger. I attributed that to the additional stresses in my life, but looking back, I have always been able to cope. The nurse said it would take 3 months to adjust and by the 3rd month, I felt I had stabilized somewhat.
I'm in my 4th month, and I continue to have mood swings. I'm angry, depressed, sensitive to the most trivial things. This is my last month on Ortho-lo. I'm considering going off the Pill to feel "normal" again or I'm looking into some other Pill that will not make me into a raging psycho.
Subj: Weight gain with lo
Date: 10/20/2004
First of all, let me preface this by saying that I had nothing but an optimistic attitude when I started taking Ortho-Tricyclen Lo. I had never taken any form of hormonal birth control before and had the normal fears that it would make me gain weight, have mood swings, etc?I did a lot of research before I started taking them and my doctor had really quelled my fears that they would make me gain weight. She said it was true of the first generation birth-control pills, and had just become part of common lore.
That said, I can tell you that these things make me miserable. I start out fine during the first two weeks of the pack, but when it comes time for the dark blue pills, I cringe. My breasts are so huge, sore, and swollen that I can barely fit into my bras. I'd say they have grown at least ¾ a cup size. That is a lot to someone who already has a full chest! Most upsetting to me is the weight gain. I didn't want to blame the 5-8 lbs gain on the pill, and I really examined my lifestyle before I made this claim. But, I work out EVERYDAY (cardio and weight-training for AT LEAST an hour) and eat better than most people I know (about 1000-1200 calories a day). I became even stricter in what I ate when I started the pill because I was so afraid of gaining weight. But, even if I starve myself for days, the weight goes up or stays the same. It is SOOOO depressing that if I didn't have to work I wouldn't leave the house. I barely fit into my clothes.
Compounding this are the mood swings and depression. I hardly recognize myself when I take the darker blue pills. I am psychotically mad one moment and then as sweet as sugar the next. Then just cry. I feel so bad for my poor boyfriend who has to put up with my random moods?Although, not that bad?it weren't for him, I wouldn't need these things at all! =) Seriously, I know all women are different and I do have diagnosed clinical depression, so keep that in mind. But I have noticed they exacerbate the problem and make me gain weight!
Subj: Decline in sex drive
Date: 10/20/2004
I was on ortho tri cyclen for 4 years. I LOVED it in every respect. I started to notice a decline in my sex drive and notified my doctor. She said it could be caused by the pill and switched me to Yasmine. My sex drive remained low on Yasmine. I also gained 8 lbs out of the blue (I was eating and exercising the same as before) and I was spotting during the 2nd week on the pill. After a few months, my doctor switched me to Orth Tri Cyclen Lo. While I stopped gaining weight, I can't seem to lose the weight I gained from Yasmin. As for the side effects, my sex drive still remains low. However, I am no longer experiencing the spotting, my skin is great and my periods are great. No other negative side effects on the Lo.
Subj: Anyone else have tingling in arm?
Date: 10/20/2004
I was on Ortho Tri-cyclen for a month and noticed tingling in my arm while I took the estrogen-containing pill. I am no longer taking the pill because my doctor advised me not to but I am wondering how long my arm will continue to tingle. If anyone has had this side effect please give me some info.
Subj: Minimal sides effects on Ortho Tri-cyclen
Date: 10/22/2004
i have been on ortho tri cyclen for about 15 months. I was astonished at how light my period became, especially after having a c-section, the slight increase in breast size, and how convenient it was to know when my period would come. I've had minimal side effects, such as minor weight gain. But after thinking about it, I've realized that in the past 15 months my memory span is horrible, I am always tired, even after 10 hours of sleep a night and I've had occasional migraines and severe back aches and absolutely no sex drive. Could this be due to the pill? Is that reason enough to stop taking? Will the 10lbs. or so I've put on now go away?
AskDocWeb: Other women have reported similar experiences with this birth control. For some it was reason enough to stop, for others, it was not. You might want to talk to your doctor about alternatives. As for the weight, it won't just go away by itself. From what we have heard, it will take a lot more effort to lose it while on the pill.
Subj: Nausea
Date: 10/25/2004
I have been on ortho tri-cyclen for three years and since the second year I been getting nausea. It now has became such a problem I have trouble eating due to nausea being so terrible that I vomit then I get a headache. I was told to switch to ortho lo and if that doesn't work I should go to the depo-provera. I was wondering if this is a side effect or what?
Subj: Mood regulator
Date: 10/26/2004
I have been on Ortho-Triclyen Lo for about seven months. Although it has kept my moodiness at bay, I still have irregular periods, "usually" every two weeks. It hasn't regulated my cycles, but as regulated my mood.
Subj: Mood swings and weight gain
Date: 10/27/2004
I have been on Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo for almost eleven months. Like a few other women that posted on this site, I have extreme mood swings around the time of my period. I find myself crying, angry, or sad for no reason. I am usually such a positive, happy-go-lucky person. I hate being so moody. It puts real stress on my relationship with my boyfriend to the point I think it could cause serious problems. Are there any other birth control pills available that are known for less mood swings, that also aren't known for weight gain? Please help me, I really hate being upset all the time.
AskDocWeb: All of the birth control pills we are aware of have weight gain and moodiness as possible side effects, although some women have lost weight after starting the pill.
Subj: Hair loss
Date: 10/27/2004
I am 29 have been on Ortho for the past 11 years , ever since my daughter was born. Have you ever heard of hair loss being a side effect?
AskDocWeb: Yes, several women have reported hair loss, both with the regular Ortho Tri-cyclen® and the lo version.
Subj: Mood is deeply affected
Date: 10/29/2004
I recently began taking ortho tri-cyclen lo (about 2 months ago) and do not like it at all. Overall, I didn't notice many side effects except for my mood. The first month I had huge mood swings and was extremely irritable. The second month I became depressed and cried all the time. I am considering going off of it because I really think I'm going crazy. Is it possible that I am not able to be on the pill because my mood is so deeply affected?
AskDocWeb: You may not be able to be on the "lo" version. You may want to talk to your doctor about alternatives.
Subj: Deep pimples with ortho-lo
Date: 10/30/2004
ORTHO-LO = breakouts, DEEP pimples. I started 2 weeks on ortho-lo and my face is a landmine of deep, painful pimples. Im going to wait another 2 weeks to see any changes before throwing it at my doctor.
How to take the pill
Date: 10/31/2004
I've been using orth tri cyclen lo for exactly one week a couple days ago when I was taking them the pill would get sorta stuck or not go down when I tryed to swallow it with milk it eventually goes down.. am I doing something wrong? and I'm scared this is effecting how its probably not going down at the same time I'm suppose to take them PLZ get back at me. I'm new at all this and I have no idea if anything could happen? I was also wondering if these pills make your boobs bigger?
AskDocWeb: No, it doesn't appear that you're doing anything wrong. You might have your throat checked to make sure there's no swelling, because you should be able to swallow that small pill without any problem.
Note on swallowing pills: If you have difficulty swallowing your medication pay attention to whether the pill floats or sinks in a mouth full of water. If the pill sinks, look up when you swallow. If the pill floats, lean forward and look down when swallowing. You want the pill to enter your throat first and be flushed down by the water.
Subj: Anyone else experience this?
Date: 11/10/2004
I have been on Orthtricyclen Lo for about 6 months and my breasts hurt all the time. I get about 3 days of non pain after my period then they start to hurt and the pain gets worse until my period comes. Also, even though both breasts feel pain only one gets bigger as the month progresses so by the time my period comes, I'm lopsided. It is very uncomfortable. Has anyone else experienced this?
Subj: Skin problems with TriCyclen
Date: 11/10/2004
I have been on TriCyclen for about a year. I have been getting breakouts of a rash around my mouth and cheeks, almost like eczema. I have been using various creams and lotions to cure it. It's extremely dry after a break out. I'm curious if this is caused from the pill with regards to the medication in it to take away mild acne. I don't really have an ache problem so I'm wondering if it's sucking the moisture out of my skin. Just curious if any one has been experiencing skin problems while on this pill?
Subj: Broke out with rash on Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo
Date: 11/10/2004
I have been on Ortho Tri-cyclen for almost 4 years now and my skin was great. My doctor made me switch to Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo. Since the start of my cycle I broke out with a rash all over my face, Jaw, Neck and chest. My Doc refuses to switch me back because I'm 38 and she said I'm to old for it. She doesn't think it's the pill. I do after reading this web page. Does anyone know if there is actually a different chemical make up when comparing the two pills? Not just the levels of hormones. Thank You,
Subj: No period for three months
Date: 11/15/2004
Hoping for some help! I too Ortho tri-cyclen for a year. I got off it almost three months ago, and have not yet had a period. I have taken two pregnancy tests and they were both negative. My husband and I used condoms even when I was on the pill, and definitely since I have been off of it. Is this normal??? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
AskDocWeb: We suggest you visit your doctor to make sure everything is okay.
Subj: Back on lo
Date: 11/16/2004
I went back on lo after quitting it for 6 months because of weight gain and menstrual cramps. I just went back on it a week ago and already I am an emotional wreck. My period was supposed to be over several days ago but I'm still spotting (making my period almost a week and a half long now). I hate it.
Subj: Pregnant without a baby
Date: 11/17/2004
3 years ago I began taking ortho-tri-cyclen and was on it for a year. I got off because I had gained around 15lbs. So I decided to switch to Yasmin. 6 months on Yasmin added another 14lbs. and I must add that I am a very active person and my diet did not change whatsoever. The pill has messed up my body and I have spent over a year now trying to lose the weight but not a single diet has worked, nor has working out twice a day. I've become eternally pregnant without a baby. Hope this helps anyone who can't quite decide. p.s. I decided it would be worthless to even mention the other fulfilled side effects such as moodiness and being overly emotional?and downright depression.
Subj: Symptoms of the pill
Date: 11/19/2004
I took ortho tri cyclen for about 5 years and was experiencing spotting so my doctor switched me to the lo and I still experienced the problems. Therefore I laid off the pill for 3 months, and then they started me back on Ovacon...which I still experienced problems, now I am on the OrthoCyclen. And well I am in my second month of pills, on my second week of the second month and I have had major breast tenderness, major cramps, constipation, and mood swings. I had sex with my BF last month on the day after my period stopped, we used a condom and it didn't break. I am wondering if my symptoms are from the pill or what?
AskDocWeb: Your symptoms do sound like the experience that many others have reported from being on the pill.
Subj: Ortho tri-cyclen for acne
Date: 11/22/2004
I just started taking ortho tri-cyclen for my acne. It's been 2 weeks and I'm just wondering how long till I start to notice a difference in my skin?
AskDocWeb: Any change in your acne is likely to be slow, taking several more weeks. Whatever benefits you have should be apparent by your third month.

Snape perused the castle on night rounds, making one last sweep of the North corridor before turning in. In the distance, he heard the clock in the Great Hall ring twelve midnight, each chime reverberating through the ancient stone walls. As he walked through the corridors, the cool autumn air whistled through the stones, raising gooseflesh on his bare arms.
He approached the entrance to the North tower, the last station on his rounds, and flung the door wide. Scanning the darkened staircase, he saw nothing. Then, as if an apparition had appeared out of thin air, a dark mass huddling in the shadows revealed itself. He blinked, not sure if his vision was playing tricks on him. As the outline solidified in the dim light, the form quivered. Snape leapt into action, wand drawn, taking the stairs two at a time.
Upon closer inspection, he saw that the huddled mass was a teenager. Snape took in the sight before him, the bloodshot eyes, the dilated pupils and vacant stare. The shaking hands and the spasmodically kicking legs. The cold, clammy skin.
Snape took a step back and leaned against the stone wall of the tower staircase, his wand held loosely at his side. "You are a disgrace to the name of wizard."
"Fuck you," the boy spat.
"Potter," Snape snapped. Grabbing the boy by the chin hard enough to leave bruises while dragging his face upward, he seethed, "How dare you speak me to me like that."
Potter simply stared back, defiance written in every line of his trembling body.
"You make me sick," Snape hissed, resisting the urge to snap the boy's neck. "The Boy-Who-Lived, a drug addict. What is it, Potter? Coke? Heroin? Ecstacy?" Snape flung the boy away from him.
The motion made Potter wretch, vomiting bile onto the stone steps and collapsing once again against the wall, not even bothering to clean up after himself.
"You are pathetic," Snape spat. "And to think the Wizarding World put their faith in you."
"Shut up!" Potter yelled in a hoarse whisper, wrapping his arms around himself as he shivered. "You have no idea..."
Snape scoffed. "No idea what poor Harry Potter has been through?" Squatting down on the dusty stairs in front of the boy, he grabbed Potter by the shoulders and shook him. "It's you, boy, that has no idea. You who can't see beyond the end of your nose. You with your sense of superiority and entitlement, your over-inflated ego, you arrogant, little…"
"My name is Harry, H-A-R-R-Y," Potter interrupted, his eyes swiveling up to meet Snape's.
"Not James," the boy whispered.
"I know who you are…"
"No, you don't," Potter shouted, shoving Snape's hands off his shoulders. "And you never have." He wiped the sweat from his brow with his trembling forearm. "I'm not my father."
Snape stood, dusting off his robes. "Get up," he sneered, his voice laced with disgust. "Drug abuse is grounds for automatic expulsion, even for you, Potter. And it's only the second day of classes…"
"Fuck you," Potter cursed, huddling closer to the stone wall as his legs flailed of their own accord and his whole body shook. "I'd rather die here than go anywhere with you."
Snape's hand struck bone and flesh and Potter's head hit the stones with a dull thud. "How dare you speak to me as if…"
"As if what?" Potter spat, his eyes rolling wildly, scrabbling for purchase on Snape's face. "As if you are a prejudiced, presumptuous bastard who hasn't got a clue about who I am or what my life is like?"
"Why you…" Snape seethed, his eyes locking with Potter's. And then, in an instant of inspiration and madness, Snape whispered, "Legilimens."
"Come with me," Snape commanded.
"Go to Hell," Harry spat. "You had no right!"
Harry watched through bleary eyes as Snape turned away and rested his arms loosely on the stone wall of the narrow staircase, leaning his forehead on his forearms.
"You are correct, Potter. I did not."
"What?" Harry asked, stunned.
"I should not have entered your mind without your permission. But that does not change what I saw…"
Harry looked away and cursed. Tears prickled at the corner of his eyes and slid down his cheeks. "Fuck," he said again, burying his head in his knees. "Fuck, fuck, fuck."
"Potter," Snape said from somewhere near his left ear. "You need help."
Harry buried his head further into his knees and sobbed harder. Why did Snape, of all people, have to find out? Why him? Why now?
"I have some potions that can help…"
"I don't need potions," Harry moaned. "I need a fix."
When there was no response, Harry looked up to see the all too familiar expression of annoyance and impatience on Snape's face. But there was something else there too, something like concern. Harry shoved the thought aside and flinched when Snape reached toward him.
"Be still," Snape muttered.
Harry made himself as still as he could, considering the trembling in his limbs that he had no control over. Snape stroked Harry's right temple, then pulled his hand back to study the dark substance that coated his fingers. At Snape's sharp intake of breath, Harry realized it was blood; his blood.
"May I?" Snape asked.
Warily, Harry nodded.
With a wave of his wand, Snape vanished the blood from Harry's face and hair. Then, holding Harry's head steady with his free hand, Snape healed the gash that had resulted from when he had slapped Harry and Harry's head had hit the wall.
Snape closed his eyes for a moment, as if to summon patience. Opening them once again, he said, "I owe you an apology, Potter."
"You owe me several," Harry retorted before he could think better of it.
Snape cocked an eyebrow. "Don't push your luck, Potter." Snape straightened and offered Harry a hand. "It's me or the headmaster. The choice is yours."
Harry studied the potions master for a long time. If he had to go through withdrawal in front of someone, better it be someone who already thought he was a worthless waste of space than someone who would be disappointed in him. Finally, Harry nodded, and ignoring the outstretched hand, pushed himself unsteadily to his feet.
Snape sat in the leather arm chair in his study, shaking with a mixture of rage and despair. Potter lay on the couch across from him, finally asleep, though periodic spasms still wracked his body. The various potions he'd given the boy had taken effect, leaving Snape to stew in his own misery. He'd not been wrong about many things in his life, but when he was, his mistakes tended to be catastrophic. The horrific images that danced in his mind had sunk their fangs into his subconscious and Snape didn't think their venom would leave him anytime soon.
"You can't stay awake forever, boy," the fat man sneered, spittle flying from his lips as he taunted the teenager who stood rigid against the far wall like a cornered animal. Exhaustion marred the boy's features. It was by determination alone that the boy still stood on wobbly legs.
"How long has it been, boy? Two days since you've slept? Three?" The boy's hands had balled into fists but he didn't respond. Instead, his eyes darted nervously to what the man held in his hand.
The fat man laughed, waving the syringe so that beams of sunlight glinted off of the sharp steel needle. "Soon you'll be begging for it," the man said, his words a threat as much as a promise.
The scene changed.
The boy huddled in a corner on a stained gray blanket atop a threadbare mattress, his arms wrapped around his knees, shaking uncontrollably.
"You want it, don't you?" the fat man taunted. "You want it bad, I can tell."
The boy buried his face and moaned, tightening his grasp on his legs.
There was a click as the man set the syringe on the dresser. Then the sound of a belt being undone, leather being pulled through belt loops. The boy drew further in on himself, whimpering.
A metallic snap, a zipper being unzipped, fabric rustling as it was shoved aside.
The boy looked up through a fringe of black hair, his glasses askew, and tears on his cheeks.
"You know what you have to do to get it, boy," the fat man said, motioning to the drug-filled syringe with one hand as he stroked himself with the other, his bulbous purple member bobbing in anticipation.
The boy turned aside and vomited.
Snape forced himself out of the memory, his hands balled into fists. It had been damn fortunate that he'd not been able to leave Potter alone for even a second, and that Albus had dispatched Aurors immediately to deal with Vernon Dursley, or else Snape would have killed the man himself with his bare hands. The desire to do so, to hunt that excuse of a man down and eviscerate him, hummed within Snape's veins. The cruel, sadistic bastard! How anyone could do that to a child! To the Boy-Who-Lived no less!
Snape downed another glass of brandy and spent a moment fantasizing about how he'd make Vernon Dursley pay if he ever got the chance. As much as Snape would have liked to believe that the abuse had started just the past summer, he could not. A man with that much talent for cruelty had surely inflicted it on the boy over many years. And where had precious Petunia been in all of this? Blissfully ignorant? Doubtful. A willing accomplice? She was Lily's sister! How could she?
Despair settled over him once again at the thought of Lily. He had failed her in so many ways. His hand shook as he refilled the brandy sniffer. "I'm sorry, Lily, so sorry."
A groan from the sofa snapped him back to the present. He set the glass of brandy aside and walked over to the couch, studying the boy sleeping there. Potter's skin was pale and clammy; his cheek bones hollow from malnutrition. The boy writhed in his sleep, as if fighting off demons. His uncle, Snape wondered. Or his frail body's need for heroin? Or the memories? Did it matter?
Snape sighed and stepped to the fireplace, sorting through the various potions he'd set atop the mantle. He'd been so wrong about the boy. Had he taken more interest, seen past his own prejudices, perhaps he could have done right by the boy long before now. Perhaps he could have saved Lily's son. But he hadn't. He'd been too caught up in his own childhood memories to see that what he'd thought was defiance and arrogance was actually an abused child's attempt at self preservation.
He uncapped a lavender colored potion and stepped across the room. Sliding an arm beneath the boy's shoulders, he lifted Potter into a sitting position and placed the glass vial against the boy's lips. "Drink this, Potter," he commanded.
Potter startled half-awake and began to struggle. Snape tightened his grip, holding the boy's too thin frame against his chest. "It's okay, Potter, drink this. It will make you feel better."
Harry calmed. "China cat? Smack?"
"Yes, it's heroin," Snape lied, tipping the contents of the nerve tonic mixed with calming draught into Harry's willing mouth. After all the muttering, screaming, and hair pulling Harry had done in one of his withdrawal-induced fits, Snape had had to come up to speed fast on street drug lingo.
Carefully laying Potter back down on the sofa, Snape resisted the impulse to smash the now empty vial against the stone fireplace at the injustice of it all. Instead, he took a deep, steadying breath and sat back in his chair, head in his hands. He could brew potions to ease Potter's withdrawal from the heroin. That was the easy part. But after the haze cleared, the boy would still be left to deal with years of abuse and torment at the hands of his sadistic relatives. No potion in the world could heal those kind of wounds.
Snape looked over at Harry and sighed with a mixture of resolution and resignation. "I will do right by your son, Lily, if it's the last thing I do. You have my word."

The school has thorough and supportive transition procedures in place: on entering the school, from one class to the next, and from Junior School to Senior School. Familiar, secure and consistent standards work together throughout the school to enable our children to make good academic and social progress. Styles of learning and teaching that build on previous knowledge and skills are employed.
The school provides opportunities for children to work with teachers in their next school year and in their new classrooms and building each term so that transition at the end of the school year is comfortable and predictable.
Westbourne takes a pro-active approach in addressing pupil concerns and offering practical support to enhance self-esteem and confidence in all our pupils moving from Junior School to Senior School.
In addition to the pastoral awareness that permeates the school as a whole, form and subject teachers give formal handover of children's progress and achievement to their next teachers at the end of each school year.
Older pupils play a key role in supporting the younger pupils through school, as chosen mentors and in their involvement in a range of optional and timetabled activities between the year groups. Additionally we have a TNG (Transition Nurture Group) comprising of a small number of pupils who will receive extra support in making the journey from Junior School to Senior School.
Close liaison between Junior School and Senior School ensures that the knowledge, skills and competence that have developed in the Junior years support the pupils well in their Senior School careers.This allows pupils to reflect on the many achievements and successes in Junior School whilst ensuring they possess the knowledge and skills to be confident.

So I decided to make granola the other day… found a recipe online, modified it a bit (of course!) and voila! Fantastic! I think my oven runs hot because it's pretty dark so next time I'll cut the baking time a bit but wow… what a great tasting breakfast, also great in my yogurt and it keeps me filled up for a long long time. Great quick energy for me to grab before my walks in the morning.
Here's the recipe as I made it:
Cranberry Pistachio Vanilla granola
2 c thick rolled oats
1/2 c slivered almonds
1/2 c pumpkin seeds (raw)
1/2 c chopped pistachios
1/4 c hulled sesame seeds
1/2 c raw sunflower seeds
1/4 c wheat germ
1 c cranberries
1/4 c oil
1/2 tsp vanilla
3/4 c honey
I threw the almonds and pumpkin seeds in a bowl
Chopped up my pistachios,
Added the wheat germ,
… Sesame seeds,
… and sunflower seeds.
I poured in my oats,
Mixed it up
All mixed!
Now the liquids – oil goes in a cup. Measure the oil separately in a larger measure and swirl it around to coat the sides.
Measure honey in the oil-coated measuring cup and pour it in
Add vanilla
Warm up the mixture in the microwave so it gets thin
Pouring on to the dry mix. The fact that I heated it up helps the liquid absorb into the dry mix.
All mixed!
Closeup of the texture
In the oven on a baking sheet with sides (sides are important!)
And the finished granola! I think my oven was hot since it got VERY dark.
Adding the cranberries. You add dried fruit after it's been toasted otherwise they get all brown and hard.
All mixed!
Closeup of the granola… yum! It comes out of the oven pretty moist but it crisps up well after it cools.
I enjoyed my granola all week long in the mornings with milk and also in my yogurt at work. I'm going to make more today because I ran out yesterday. It's a good dense food for me to eat – I have trouble eating enough calories some days especially when I exercise a lot (nursing burns like 500 calories!) so its good for me to have on hand.

{mashup} Feeling Like Fall
My recent purchase at the jewelry fair inspired today's look. It didn't take long to find all the pieces. I'm a huge fan of basics and keeping things to a minimal. Let me first show off the jewelry set:
The jewelry is from Eclectica. This set is called Morris Peacock & Dragon and comes with bangles for both wrists, a left hand ring (worn on the middle finger!), earrings, brooch and a scarf. The scarf is the reason I made this purchase. It comes in two options: worn in the front or worn in the back. As you can see I chose the worn in the back option.
The scarf flows nicely; its not too rigid nor super flowy that it falls into your body. The details on the whole set are remarkable. Eclectica is a "new to me" designer. I know I will heading to the mainstore to see the full collection.
For the clothing, I pulled out some tried and true elements. The jacket and cami are retired. You might be able to find the cami but if you do find the jacket, please let me know. The jacket designer was one of my favs who is no longer designing.
The jeans are ones that I wore nearly all of last year. I love the longer cuff and the lean leg. Oh hey, its dark denim – my other fav!
My post a few weeks back when I used a jacket from Truth people didn't think he made clothing … yes he does! And, oh, by-the-way, he makes awesome shoes – guys and girls. I highly recommend checking out the entire Truth sim to see what you will find in the other builds.
I'm done yammering. Good luck shopping … and check out the Jewelry Fair!

Leandro, do you really believe that couple of thin paragraphs is enough to rebuff insightful and quite substantial original message?
To add to UDT problems (which were posted sometime ago in the c.d.t exchange with Paul Brown, so I plot only summary here):
1. Creating User Defined indexes is hard. 2. User Defined statistics is expert users domain. 3. UDT optimization is virtually non-existent.Even though 1-3 might be not fundamental problems, they create unsatisfactory Return-On-Investment when creating a UDT of only limited utility requires unproportional effort.

Mirror Neurons On The Wall: Mirror Neurons Make You Smile
Mirror neurons on the wall….mirror neurons make you smile. This is a twist from one of the scariest fairy tales I've ever heard, Sleeping Beauty. But, what are mirror neurons, and why are they important? They're important because we have a tendency to mirror behavior that we observe. Imagine that you are having a bad day, and you come across someone who flashes you a radiant smile.

With just seconds to go in the first half Bronc Senior Nick Gill pounds his way through a quartet of Tigers to just get into the corner of the end zone to put his Broncs up 18 to 0. Nick also kicked the extra point to make it Sheridan 19 - Rock Springs 0. Both teams were scoreless in the second half as Sheridan now stands at 5 & 0 while Rock Springs sinks to 0 & 5.
Early in the 2nd quarter Big Horn Ram Colter Carzoli took the hand off from QB Connor McCaferty at the six and punched it in for the score as he made a final cut to his left into a hole at the goal line thanks to the block by fellow Ram Mason Lube #58. Colter's TD ran the score to 20 to 7.
Rain couldn't dampen the Sheridan High School Homecoming Pep Rally spirit on Grinnell Plaza Thursday evening. After recognizing the athletics of the fall sports teams it was time to burn the "Bronc" and that they did right in the middle of Grinnell Plaza. After that some dancing broke out in front of the stage as the students continued in the spirit of homecoming.
Another close one beating Cheyenne East, Derek Vela blocked the field goal attempt by East in the last seconds to help Sheridan beat East 22-21, good job.
They play this Thursday at home against Gillette, come cheer them on!!!! Enjoy the pictures!!

The #3 doubles team of Braxton Cooper and Robert Meixsell racked up a 6-2, 3-6, 6-2 win over Cody's Angeb Prosceno and Zach Ross Saturday morning as the Sheridan Broncs took 4 out of 5 matches. The Lady Broncs fell to Cody winning just two of the five matches.
On Friday afternoon Senior Bronc Reed Ritterbusch in #1 Singles beat Powell's Cody Akin as he led the Broncs to a 5 - 0 sweep of Powell in tennis action. The Lady Broncs lost 3 to 2. Sheridan will host matches with Cody starting at 9:00 am Saturday on the courts at Sheridan High School.
With just under 4-minutes to go in the 2nd quarter Sheridan's Nick Gill scampers down the sideline on a 68-yard punt return. His return set up an 8-yard pass play to Colbey Bruney who ran into the end zone to put the Broncs up 26 to 7 with just under 4-minutes to go in the half.
9th grade Sheridan Broncs
teamwork, determination, and a blocked point after create an outcome vs Sage Valley with a win in OT 34-33.
Go Broncs!!
good luck this weekend against Cheyenne East.
It was half-way through the season before the Lady Bronc Swimmers & Divers showed off their talents to the home crowd. The Sheridan girls finished first in 11 of the 12 events en-route to sinking Buffalo 128 to 56 Tuesday afternoon.
Big Horn's Hanneah Puckett, known more for her hard hitting over the net, also can go low in controlling the ball from the back row. After seeing home court action on Thursday and Friday the Lady Rams were back for more on Saturday afternoon where they were hosting the Big Horn VB Invite.

Espanyol - No Zabaleta bids
Espanyol have insisted the club have not received any offers for Pablo Zabaleta.
By Francisco Acedo
Last Updated: 23/07/08 10:11am
Espanyol have insisted the club have not received any offers for versatile midfielder Pablo Zabaleta.
Manchester City and Valencia have both been linked with moves for the Argentina international, who can play at right-back or right midfield.
It has been reported in Spain that Zabaleta is poised to leave the club after Espanyol recently met with the player's agents and agreed that they have until 1st August to find him a new side.
However, sporting director Paco Herrera has stated that Espanyol have yet to receive an approach for the 23-year-old's services.
Herrera said: "We have not received any formal offers for Pablo Zabaleta. I know the reports in the papers but they are not true".
It is claimed that Espanyol would allow Zabaleta to leave the club for a fee in the region of €8million (£6.3million).

Women and children are suffering the worst horrors in Syria, with many subjected to rape and sexual violence in a war that has traumatized a generation of young people, US lawmakers heard Tuesday.
Women and children make up around three-quarters of the four million people who have fled either across the border or within Syria, top US and UN officials told a subcommittee of the Senate Foreign Relations committee.
Now there are growing reports of rapes in refugee camps, and of young girls being sold off into forced marriages or prostitution as families disintegrate and struggle to survive in face of the brutal conflict.
"It is hard to truly capture the horror of going to the camps and being shown pictures by a woman of her dead children on her cell phone in this very tragic twist on technology," assistant administrator at the US Agency for International Development Nancy Lindborg told the lawmakers.
"We have a generation that is now touched and traumatized by the conflict."
US aid was helping to support some 144 hospitals and mobile clinics inside Syria, and staff had brought stocks of rape kits and trained health care professionals in rape counseling, she said.
Lindborg admitted that while the goal was to stop the rapes, "at this point inside Syria, given the conflict, we're better able to do the treatment."
We're on a mission to show you the real Middle East.

UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres warned the situation was likely to worsen as aid agencies and host nations buckle under the strain of caring for a tide of refugees.
One in five refugees was under the age of four, he said, adding he could not shake off memories of "visiting schools and looking at the drawings. All the drawings are planes bombarding villages or people being killed by other people."
Jordan, which is already battling an economic crisis, has taken in some 356,000 Syrian refugees since the March 2010 start of the battle to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
As many as 1.15 million people have now fled across Syria's borders, and the desperate flow is becoming a flood as the conflict enters a third year.
Guterres praised regional countries for sheltering so many and described the "heroic" Jordanian border guards who spot the incoming refugees -- some 2,000 to 3,000 a night -- with night-vision goggles and help them to safety.
And he predicted that if the situation on the ground does not change, Syria's immediate neighbors, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey could each be hosting a million refugees by the end of 2013.
This will have "an unimaginable impact in the economy, the society and the security of these countries," he warned.
Lindborg said the $385 million in humanitarian aid provided by America to date had been "a lifeline to more than 2.4 million people inside Syria."
American aid has reached all 14 provinces in Syria, and about 50 percent was reaching the opposition in battleground areas.
"We know it's not enough, but we are working to ensure that it reaches as broad a swath of those in need. It is being put to work on the ground every day in some of the areas affected by the worst violence," she said.

As I mentioned in a previous blog, one unfortunate fact about the aging process is that our muscle mass decreases as we age. The good news is whether you are in your 30's, middle-age, or older, research shows it is never too late to start an exercise program that includes weight/strength training to counteract that process.
Exercise physiologist Richard Weil, MEd, CDE, reports the following encouraging results from a study of 100 male and female residents aged 72 to 98 years old (average age was 87) at a Boston nursing home. He discovered that after lifting weights with their legs 3 times a week for only 10 weeks, participants' thigh muscle mass increased 2.7%, their walking speed increased 12%, and their leg strength increased a whopping 113%!
He also reported that in a similar study of participants aged 65-79, those who lifted weights three times a week for three months increased their walking endurance by 38% (from 25 minutes to 34 minutes).

Frank O'Hara Quotes About PainQuotes about: Pain
I don't believe in god, so I don't have to make elaborately sounded structures. ... Pain always produces logic, which is very bad for you. ... As for measure and other technical apparatus, that's just common sense: if you're going to buy a pair of pants you want them to be tight enough so everyone will want to go to bed with you. There's nothing metaphysical about it.
I loved her fright, which was against me into the air! and the diamond white of her forelock which seemed to smart with thoughts as my heart smarted with life! and she'd toss her head with the pain and paw the air and champ the bit, as if I were Endymion and she, moon-like, hated to love me.

Frozen, Part Deux
Since some of you have asked, I've been trying to take pictures of our frozen Tundra up here. Our thermometer read about fifteen BELOW zero this morning, but it's beautiful and sunny. One might be tempted to call it "crisp," but that doesn't quite capture the brightness, shininess, or the creaking, crunchy shock of this cold. Make no mistake, your nose runs and then everything freezes.
Here is my attempt to take a winter shot from the same place as the fall shot of the lake that is the cover of my book. It's the same tree, which has been trimmed, but I can't get the angle right, the leaves are, of course, gone, and a boat lift occupies a lot of the scene.

Yes some might even call it "bracing!" The best part is we are just about half way through January.
jeff patty k
there is something special about a sub zero morning on the lake, quiet, fresh, and the bright sun, priceless. and then at night it has a solace that is mystic.
Jane Harrington
Wow! I have a longing to see that, though my imagined visitation involves being in a heated hovercraft. Here in the Blue Ridge, we call it cold when 15 above. The grasses in the fields are so delicate on those mornings, each blade encased in tiny crystalline bands of mountain dew (the real kind). It's so beautiful that I find myself longing for the equipment or ability to capture a close-up in a lens or a line of poetry. (A rhyme about rime?) I settle, instead, for the aural experience–the sounds like glass bubbles shattering, as I tromp through the scene in my farm boots, arms loaded with hay. I feel somehow guilty destroying all those works of minuscule art, but the goats have to eat!

Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) made a huge announcement about their search index. The company announced a new system called "caffeine," which provides 50% faster web results whether they are blog posts, forum posts, images, etc.
"Our old index had several layers, some of which were refreshed at a faster rate than others; the main layer would update every couple of weeks. To refresh a layer of the old index, we would analyze the entire web, which meant there was a significant delay between when we found a page and made it available to you. With Caffeine, we analyze the web in small portions and update our search index on a continuous basis, globally. As we find new pages, or new information on existing pages, we can add these straight to the index. That means you can find fresher information than ever before?no matter when or where it was published," stated Google Software Engineer Carrie Grimes on the official blog.
Caffeine takes up about 100 million gigabytes of storage in one database. Hundreds of thousands of gigabytes in information data is added per day.

Finishing seams is a basic skill YOU can use to make your sewing professional without fancy equipment, or even a serger. This month I'm writing simple tutorials showing all my favorite ways to finish a seam without a serger.
So far in this series we've practiced 1) a French seam, 2) a false French seam, and 3) a clean finished seam.
Zig-Zag Finish
Today I'm sharing my take of one of the most common seam finishes: a simple zig-zag stitch. I've noticed in my sewing that the zig-zag stitch can get sloppy. I'm sharing the steps I take to make sure my zig-zag stich stays neat. Although this finish is not as polished as the others I've shared, it comes in handy on curved seams such as an armhole or crotch seam.
The Tutorial
As with all new sewing techniques, I recommend practicing on scrap fabric before applying it to your garment. The extra step may take up some time, but it is worth it if it prevents mistakes later on (trust me, I know!).
Step one:
Sew a seam with a 5/8″ seam allowance.
Step two:
Line up the left edge of your presser foot with the seam and sew your zig-zag stitch.
Step three:
Trim the edge of the seam allowance as close as you can to the zig-zag stitch. Be careful not to cut into your stitches!
This one is so simple, it only takes three steps! The most important step is to line up the presser foot with SOMETHING when you sew the zig-zag stitches, so that seam isn't swerving all over the place. Trimming the seam really helps it to look neater and leaves less fabric to fray.
+ A nice twist to this finishing technique is to press the seam open first and zig-zag the seam allowances separately so the seam can lay flat when it is finished.
Love, Jess

(CBS/AP) HARTFORD, Conn. - Joshua Komisarjevsky, the second defendant facing a death penalty trial for the slayings of a mother and her two daughters in an infamous Connecticut home invasion four years ago, has offered to plead guilty to all charges in exchange for a life sentence without parole, according to court documents filed Friday.
Authorities say 30-year-old Komisarjevsky, and co-defendant, Steven Hayes, brutally murdered Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her daughters, 11-year-old Michaela and 17-year-old Hayley, following a night of terror inside their Chesire home in 2007. Dr. William Petit, Hawke-Petit's husband and the girls' father, was beaten with a baseball bat, but survived the attack.
Komisarjevsky's plea offer comes less than a week before the start of jury selection for his trial in New Haven Superior Court.
The motion formally asks the court to accept a conditional plea that Komisarjevsky previously offered prosecutors. In the motion filed Friday defense attorneys claimed that Komisarjevsky is making the offer to "avoid another lengthy, expensive and emotionally charged trial that will undoubtedly cause extreme mental anguish to the Petit and to the Hawke families, to the community-at-large and to his own family, friends and supporters."
Hayes, who was sentenced to death in early December after jurors found him guilty on 16 of 17 charges, including six capital felonies, made a similar plea offer but it was rejected.
In the court papers Friday, defense lawyers say Komisarjevsky told police following his arrest that he never intended for the family to be killed.
"I'm like I'm not killing anyone, there's no way," the motion quotes Komisarjevsky as telling Hayes moments before the slaying.
Komisarjevsky and Hayes, 47, were both paroled burglars who blamed each other for escalating the attack. But prosecutors claim both men were equally responsible, saying the family was tormented for seven hours before they were killed.
Police say the girls were tied to their beds, with gasoline poured on or around them, before the house was set ablaze, leading to their deaths from smoke inhalation.
Jury selection for Komisarjevsky's murder trial is scheduled to begin March 16, a process that could take months as lawyers for both sides question prospective jurors.
The trial is expected to start in September.

A season is the limited time during which you can progress your Wunderino Adventure. The length of a season can vary e.g. Christmas season can be for 31 days and Easter season might be for 7 days. Your result when a season ends will be decided by the number of levels and challenges you've completed. These will be visible in the "My trophies" section.
When a new season starts you'll always start at level 1. New seasons will include new rewards and could also mean new challenges and levels to explore.
What is a level?
A level is basically a section of the Wunderino world. The level you are currently at will be shown in the big image at the top of the start page. To be able to proceed to the next level a set of challenges has to be completed. When all challenges for a level has been completed you will proceed to the next level and at the same time receive a reward. The reward will be available in "My Bonus & Rewards".
What is a challenge?
A challenge is simply an activity you have to complete to progress to the next level, for example; win 3 times in a row on any slot game or finish top 100 in the daily tournament. If you complete a challenge you will be rewarded with a cool badge. All your badges will be stored in the "My trophies" section.

We will keep track of your activities and compare them with your challenges. Just by playing your favorite slot games you will be able to complete challenges and in the end be rewarded for levelling up.

-If two players finish level 12, first and second prize will be shared i.e. (€10 000 + €5 000)/2 = €7 500 per player (and the player who completed level 12 first of the players will get the extra €40 000)
-If three or more players finish level 12, first, second and third prizes will be shared among them (and the player who completed level 12 first will get the extra €40 000)
-If more than one player finish level 12 at the same time (i.e. the same day), the extra €40 000 will be shared equally
-If NO player finish level 12, the prize pool will be shared as described above but without the extra €40 000
All winners for this Season will be announced on the Wunderino website.
The general Terms & Conditions apply.
Wunderino Tournaments
What is being offered?
Each day there will be a new Wunderino tournament where you can win various exciting prizes. The upcoming Wunderino tournament and prizes will be announced two days in advance.
How do I participate in the Wunderino Tournaments?
You'll be competing versus other Wunderino explorers in daily Wunderino tournaments simply by playing on your favourite games and hitting the highest single win multiplier of the day or most amount of big wins of the day.
There's no opt in required, you're automatically enrolled in the current day's tournament the moment you place a minimum bet of €0.40 on any of our games and you can keep track of your current position via the Tournament-leaderboard.
Wunderino tournaments are run over a 24 hour interval, starting at 00:01 CET and finishing at 23:59 CET the same day.
What is a win multiplier?
A win multiplier is how many times larger your win is compared to your bet.
For example:
If you bet €1 and win €5 in one spin, your win multiplier of that game round is 5. If your bet was €0.50 and your win is €2, the win multiplier is 4.
How does the Big Win Tournament work?
Whenever you hit a big win on any game, you'll also receive 1 point on the leaderboard. The more big wins you get, the more leaderboard points you'll collect.
A big win is classed as any net win that is 10 times (or larger) than your initial bet. Play on ANY of your favourite games with a minimum bet of €0,40 (or more) to automatically participate in the tournament.
How do I win a Wunderino Tournament?
To reach the top of the leaderboard you need to hit the highest single win multiplicator of the day. Your best score of the day will be saved and if you get an even higher score anywhere throughout the same day, your score will be updated accordingly.
The Wunderino tournaments are based on the win multiplier in relation to the bet size placed. Everyone will have an equal chance of winning and is fair for everyone regardless of the bet size you prefer to play with, as long as it meets the minimum required bet amount.
For example:
Player 1: Bets €5/spin and highest win is €50.
Player 2: Bets €0.50/spin and highest win is €5.
In the the above example, the bet multiplier for Player 1 and 2 are both x10.
How can I see where I stand in the Wunderino Tournament?

What happens if there's a tie?
In case two players have the same score at the end of a Wunderino tournament, the prize pool will be split between the two winners. Below you can find more information of how this works.
In case of a 1st place tie example:
Player 1: x350 single multiplier win of the day. Player 2: x350 single multiplier win of the day.
Customers 1 and 2 will share the prize pool for the 1st AND 2nd position. 3rd place will go to the 3rd highest scorer and so on.

What is a bonus?
A bonus can come in various forms and shapes. At Wunderino you can find both deposit bonuses and free spins. A deposit bonus is optional to receive and means that we'll give you additional funds to use with your deposit. If you for example opt-in to a 100% deposit bonus and make a deposit of €20 we'll give you an extra €20 to play with, so your total balance would in that case be €40 (€20 deposit funds and €20 bonus funds). Bonuses cannot be withdrawn instantly since a certain wagering requirement needs to be met first. Once the wagering requirement has been met, you're free to withdraw all the money in your account. For more information on bonuses, please refer to the other questions in this Casino-section.
Can I get a bonus?
Apart from the welcome package that's available when you register your Wunderino account, we continuously offer deposit bonuses, cash spins and various bonuses to our players, on a regular basis. Available bonuses will appear on your "My bonus" page. Also make sure that you're subscribing to our newsletter as well so you won't miss out on any offers.
How do I claim a bonus offer?
You opt in for all of our bonuses when you make a deposit on your "Deposit" page. Available bonuses will appear on your "My bonus" page.
What is a Cash Spin and Free Spin?
Cash Spins and Free Spins are free rounds on a game, awarded to you from us here at Wunderino. Some free spins come without a wagering requirement. In that case we call them "Cash Spins". Other free spins come with a wagering requirement and are called Free Spins. We will always inform you which option applies. For free spins that come with a wagering requirement any winnings that you receive from a free spin will be paid out as bonus funds and needs to be turned over in accordance with the general wagering requirements before it can be withdrawn. You have 24 hours to activate your Cash Spins and 7 days to activate your Free Spin bonus once it has been awarded.
If I have activated a bonus, can I make a withdrawal?
If you have cash available that is tied to a deposit bonus, you can cancel your bonus and receive the remaining cash. For example if you have deposited €50 and received a €50 bonus, you can cancel the bonus and withdraw the €50. Your wager will be taken from the deposited cash first, so if you have €40 and €50 bonus left and you decide to cancel your bonus the €40 is unlocked and the bonus is forfeited. Note that if winnings has occured on your cash bets with a bonus connected to it, that is considered bonus winnings and those winnings will also be forfeited.
How much funds do I have to wager to complete the bonus?
In general, deposit bonuses requires that you turn over the combined deposit and bonus amount a certain number of times before a withdrawal can be made. This is often referred to as the wagering requirement ((Deposit+Bonus) x Wagering Requirement). The criteria will always be stated in our bonus terms available below under the question "What are your bonus terms".
You can find out how much you have left to wager of a bonus by going to "My bonus" in your "Account" section.
How do I know how much I have left to wager of my bonus?
The completion rate of your bonus can be viewed on the main navigation page.
Do I have to join Wunderino to play the games?
You are always welcome to try our games for fun and this can be done without having to register any account. If you wish to play with real money you will need to create an account and make a deposit.
What happens if I lose connection while playing?
We try our utmost to prevent technical failures but unfortunately this can sometimes happen. Should you be disconnected whilst playing, the game round will most of the time have been completed. If it was a winning spin your account will have been automatically credited with the win. If you were disconnected and there was still some actions left to take or you were in the middle of a bonus round it will be paused and you can resume the round from where the disconnection took place by simply launching the game again.
Where can I see how much I have left to wager?
You can see how much you have left to wager by clicking the top right menu icon which displays a summary of your bonus status.
My bonus disappeared! What happened?
A bonus disappearing can happen either because it has expired due to not meeting the wagering requirement within the given time-line, or the bonus balance went below €0.03 which means it is automatically forfeited by the system.
Can I cancel my bonus?

Info concerning Central Wyoming College volleyball team, and registering for elective lectures and seminars. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. College coaches like to watch video of real games. If you are interested in playing college sports, make a highlight film of your high school games, ready to send to coaches once you begin recruitment. Alternatively, post your videos online, for greater exposure. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Central Wyoming College Volleyball information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Central Wyoming College.
You don't have to quarterback the university football team to a state championship to earn an athletic scholarship. Most major sports that field a team in intercollegiate competition have sports scholarships available. From women's gymnastics to men's track and field, coaches are seeking players to build a team around. Further, that leadership role often is accompanied by a full-scholarship.
The best time to begin searching for scholarships is before your senior year, in order to meet deadlines. Schools confirm that it is important to file financial aid forms such as the CSS Profile early in the school year. There are many sports scholarships that focus on less tangible qualities, such as the ability to lead a team, motivate others, and learn new skills rapidly. Take stock of your athletic abilities as you mature through high school. Students must meet specific eligibility requirements each year to participate in Avila University linebackers. Beyond consideration for Central Wyoming College volleyball team, you may think about Walla Walla Community College final grades for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

… which is long overdue. Jesus and I have been walking through my life together for the last 18+ years and I'm ready to make my public declaration that I am His, but I have to get something off my chest first.
My heart is like the Liberty Bell: Cracked.
For over a decade I had a wonderful best friend. He was funny, talented, and fun. He was the person I ran to when life got rough, or I needed a trip to white castle (notice the intentional lack of capitalization) in the middle of the night. He was the inventor of "deep fry everything nights" and the person who helped cultivate my love for track jackets. Whether either of us wanted it to happen or not, he became a huge part of the puzzle that is Laura. He is a part of my foundation. But crap happened and life changed. Now we're just somebody we used to know.

Catholic Communications, Sydney Archdiocese,
16 Mar 2012
The Archbishop of Sydney, Cardinal George Pell today announced the Archdiocese of Sydney's fifth grant of $100,000 to support adult stem cell research has been awarded to Professor John Rasko and Dr Janet Macpherson from the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPA), Sydney.
The research will look at ways adult stem cells can be produced in safe and increased quantities to help suppress reactions to foreign tissues, or rejection, following transplants or similar procedures.
Professor Rasko is Head of the Department of Cell & Molecular Therapies at RPA and an internationally-recognised leader in clinical stem cell therapy and the study of blood. He also heads the Gene and Stem Cell Therapy Program at the Centenary Institute of the University of Sydney.
Dr Janet Macpherson is also well-known in the field of stem cell research and joined the Department of Cell & Molecular Therapies at RPAH in 2010.
In warmly congratulating Professor Rasko and Dr Macpherson on the 2011 grant, Cardinal Pell said: "Their project on finding a way to develop these adult stem cells that could well revolutionise the treatment of a whole range of diseases highlights some of the wonderful avenues for research, and hopefully healing, that adult stem cells open up.
"I am delighted that the grant will help to support the work of two such accomplished and innovative researchers, and wish them every success in their research."
Harvested from bone marrow adult stems cells, known as mesenchymal stromal cells, are capable of developing into connective tissues like bone and cartilage and support the formation of blood and lymphatic cells. Mesenchymal stromal cells also contain immunomodulatory properties which Dr Macpherson says makes them valuable in helping suppress reactions to foreign tissues as occurs with organ and bone marrow transplants and similar procedures.
Currently despite the promise shown in the therapeutic use of mesenchymal stromal cells, the major limitation has been their slow proliferation and the difficulty in procuring an adequate number of them for use in therapeutic and different procedures, explains Dr Bernadette Tobin, Director of the Plunkett Centre for Ethics at St Vincent's Hospital, Darlinghurst and chair of the independent panel of leading researchers, scientists and medical experts who select the successful application.
Dr Macpherson and Professor Rasko are hopeful their research may provide some answers to previous limitations.
"As a result of this grant we would hope our research will lead to clinical trials and therapeutic treatment of individuals," Prof Rasko said.
"We know people are looking for answers and treatments and that is our goal."
The main types of adult stem cells found in bone marrow comprise hematopoietic stem cells which are blood forming stem cells, and mesenchymal stromal cells which form connective tissue, tendons, cartilage and bone. Professor Rasko's team has already shown how blood forming cells respond favourably to being grown on an elastic bed or "nano mattress" and Professor Rasko and Dr Macpherson now plan to test the potential of the "nano mattress" hoping not only to develop a safe cost-effective way of manufacturing MSC stem cells, but to discover ways to maintain these cells in conditions as near to their natural environment as possible.
If their research proves successful, the implications could be far reaching and improve the treatment of a range of diseases including many forms of cancer, conditions affecting the joints, bones, heart and immune system, as well as preventing rejection by the immune system when skin grafts or transplants are carried out and encouraging the body's natural regeneration.
Over the past eight years, the Archdiocese of Sydney has made four grants to leading Australian researchers to foster and support their studies into adult stem cells and their use in the treatment of various chronic conditions and diseases.
Cardinal Pell said the number and quality of applications for the 2011 grant, and the shift away from embryonic stem cell work internationally, showed that good ethics are no impediment to good science.
The Cardinal said "Adult stem cell research has provided healing and hope without any destruction of human life and without all the other problems to which embryonic stem cell research gives rise. It is also very good to back a winner, both ethically and scientifically."

Awesome, as usual!ReplyDelete
Oh - but a tip for the stencils. Get one of those flexible plastic cutting mats from Dollarama and use that to create your stencils. Bonus is that sometimes they are opaque, so you can see where you are positioning things. Plus,it will last FOREVER and it's cheap.ReplyDelete
Thanks Alana! I know just what you mean...that would be perfect for making stencils. Thanks for your comments!Delete
We will be trying zentangles in a couple of weeks. This is a good example of where it can go, other than the 3 1/2" squares. thank you Lee AnnReplyDelete
Thanks Fran. Some of those zentangles that people do are amazing. I'll bet that your Pathfinders and Rangers will create some neat designs!Delete

The first event is on Wednesday June 17, 2015 when Karen Harries will sing well-loved Gershwin songs accompanied by Jill Dobbs. The programme will also feature St Mary's own choir girl, Kelsey McTaggart and Mike Adcock on his vibraphone.
On Thursday July 30, 2015 the audience will enjoy listening to St Mary's Ensemble playing jigs and slides together with a clog dance or two and there will be an opportunity for some audience participation in folk songs.
Rounding up the series on Thursday August 6, 2015 will be an entertaining programme with the Harmonettes who return for the third year to help raise funds.
All three events will start at 1.10pm and there will be lunchtime treats served after the music. There will be no admission charge but everyone attending will be invited to make a donation to the organ fund raising appeal.
Gerry Foster, Vicar at St Mary's Watton, said: "The organ in this church is used for at least three Sunday services each month as well as weddings, funerals and Civic Services. We have a thriving church here which has benefited from when the building was re-ordered three years ago but there was not sufficient funding to do the organ as well. While it plays very well now we know the planned refurbishment programme will enhance the sound and ensure the organ remains a key part of this church in the future."
To find out more about St Mary's Watton and other fund raising events later in the year full information is on the website at www.stmaryswatton.org
