Laparoscopic gastric banding is surgery to help with weight loss. The surgeon places a band around the upper part of your stomach to create a small pouch to hold food. The band limits the amount of food you can eat by making you feel full after eating small amounts of food.
After surgery, your doctor can adjust the band to make food pass more slowly or quickly through your stomach.

You will receive
The surgery is done using a tiny camera that is placed in your belly. This type of surgery is called laparoscopy. The camera is called a laparoscope. It allows your surgeon to see inside your belly. In this surgery:
- Your surgeon will make 1 – 5 small surgical cuts in your abdomen. Through these small cuts, the surgeon will place a camera and the instruments needed to perform the surgery.
- Your surgeon will place a band around the upper part of your stomach to separate it from the lower part. This creates a small pouch that has a narrow opening that goes into the larger, lower part of your stomach.
- The surgery does not involve any cutting or stapling inside your belly.
- Your surgery may take only 30 – 60 minutes if your surgeon has done a lot of these procedures.
When you eat after having this surgery, the small pouch will fill up quickly. You will feel full after eating just a small amount of food. The food in the small upper pouch will slowly empty into the main part of your stomach.
Weight-loss surgery may increase your risk for gallstones. Your doctor may recommend having a
Why the Procedure Is Performed
Weight-loss surgery may be an option if you have been severely obese for 5 years or more and have not been able to lose weight through diet and exercise.
Laparoscopic gastric banding is not a "quick fix" for
People who have this surgery should be mentally stable and not be dependent on alcohol or illegal drugs.
Doctors often use the following
- A (BMI) of 40 or more. This usually means that men are 100 pounds overweight and women are 80 pounds over their ideal weight.
- A BMI of 35 or more and a serious medical condition that might improve with weight loss. Some of these conditions are
sleep apnea, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
Risks for any anesthesia are:
- Allergic reactions to medicines
Breathing problems
Risks for any surgery are:
Blood clotsin the legs that may travel to your lungs Blood loss
- Infection, including in the surgery site, lungs (
pneumonia), or bladder or kidney Heart attackor strokeduring or after surgery
Risks for gastric banding are:
- Gastric band erodes through the stomach (if this happens, it must be removed)
- Gastric band may slip partly out of place
Gastritis(inflamed stomach lining), heartburn, or stomach ulcers
- Infection in the port, which may need antibiotics or surgery
- Injury to your stomach, intestines, or other organs during surgery
- Poor nutrition
- Scarring inside your belly, which could lead to a blockage in your bowel
- Your surgeon may not be able to reach the access port to tighten or loosen the band (you would need minor surgery to fix this problem)
- The access port may flip upside down, making it impossible to access (you would need minor surgery to fix this problem)
- The tubing near the access port can be accidentally punctured during a needle access. If this happens the band cannot be tightened (you would need minor surgery to fix this problem)
- Vomiting from eating more than your stomach pouch can hold
Before the Procedure
Your surgeon will ask you to have tests and visits with your other health care providers before you have this surgery. Some of these are:
- Blood tests,
ultrasoundof your gallbladder, and other tests to make sure you are healthy enough to have surgery
- Classes to help you learn what happens during the surgery, what you should expect afterward, and what risks or problems may occur
- Complete physical exam
- Nutritional counseling
- Visit with a mental health provider to make sure you are emotionally ready for major surgery. You must be able to make major changes in your lifestyle after surgery.
- Visits with your doctor to make sure other medical problems you may have — such as
diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart or lung problems — are under control
If you are a smoker, you should stop smoking several weeks before surgery and not start smoking again after surgery. Smoking slows recovery and increases the risk of problems. Tell your doctor or nurse if you need help quitting.
Always tell your doctor or nurse:
- If you are or might be pregnant
- What drugs, vitamins, herbs, and other supplements you are taking, even ones you bought without a prescription
During the week before your surgery:
- You may be asked to stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), vitamin E, warfarin (Coumadin), and any other drugs that make it hard for your blood to clot.
- Ask your doctor which drugs you should still take on the day of your surgery.
On the day of your surgery:
- Do not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your surgery.
- Take the drugs your doctor told you to take with a small sip of water.
Your doctor or nurse will tell you when to arrive at the hospital.
After the Procedure
You will probably go home the day of surgery. Many patients are able to begin their normal activities 1 or 2 days after going home. Most people take 1 week off from work.
You will stay on liquids or mashed-up foods for 2 or 3 weeks after surgery. You will slowly add soft foods, then regular foods, to your diet. By 6 weeks after surgery, you will probably be able to eat regular foods.
The band is made of a special rubber (silastic rubber). The inside of the band has an inflatable balloon. This allows the band to be adjusted. You and your doctor can decide to loosen or tighten it in the future so you can eat more or less food.
The band is connected to an access port that is under the skin on your belly. The band can be tightened by placing a needle into the port and filling the balloon (band) with water.
Your surgeon can make the band tighter or looser any time after you have this surgery. It may be tightened or loosened if you are:
- Having problems eating
- Not losing enough weight
- Vomiting after you eat
Outlook (Prognosis)
The final weight loss with gastric banding is not as large as with
The weight will usually come off more slowly than with gastric bypass. You should keep losing weight for up to 3 years.
Losing enough weight after surgery can improve many medical conditions you might also have, such as:
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (
High blood pressure
High cholesterol
Sleep apnea
Type 2 diabetes
Weighing less should also make it much easier for you to move around and do your everyday activities.
This surgery alone is not a solution to losing weight. It can train you to eat less, but you still have to do much of the work. To lose weight and avoid complications from the procedure, you will need to follow the exercise and eating guidelines that your doctor and dietitian gave you.

CRAFTSBURY, VT (March 30) – Overall World Cup sprint champion Kikkan Randall (Anchorage) proved dominance in her repertoire of disciplines as she won the 30k U.S. Championship in Craftsbury, VT. The win marks Randall's 17th U.S. Championship title and comes as ending punctuation of the most successful season in history for the U.S. women. Teammate Jessie Diggins (Afton, MN), was a mere 1.1 seconds behind Randall at the end of 20 laps around a 1.5k course. U.S. Championships continue tomorrow in Craftsbury with the men's 50k.
Kikkan Randall
It was pretty special to be able to wrap up the season with national title number 17! It was really fun to ski the whole race with my U.S. teammates and best buddies Liz and Jessie. They continue to impress me with the progress they've made this year!
The race ended up being pretty fast from the start. Liz pushed the pace going up the main climb on the first lap and continued to keep the pace high up the climb on every lap. We traded places a few times but Liz and Jessie ended up doing most of the leading. Holly [Brooks] was with the group for the first half and I'm not really sure when she dropped off. With about six laps to go it was clear that it was a three person race. I took the lead with three laps to go but only held it for a lap or so. My quads started cramping pretty badly on those last three laps.
For only a 1.5k loop, the course actually skied really well. It seemed to have all the right elements: climbs, downhills, flats, etc. As we made our way around the course through the 20 laps, each lap of the course seemed to break down a little and some sections got pretty soft, slow and wet. I had never done such a long race on such a short lap so I had no idea what to expect.
It feels so good to finally wrap up the season. After finishing the last world cup race two weeks ago, it almost felt like the end. But it's always nice to get one more interface with the North American crew before we all head to our respective homes. I can truly let it all sink in now and celebrate with all those that helped me put together such an exciting year!

Change To Health Law Has Unclear Minnesota Impact
ST. PAUL (AP) - The state Department of Commerce says it's not immediately clear how a revision to the federal health law will play out in Minnesota.
President Barack Obama announced Thursday that insurance companies could keep offering consumers plans that were to be canceled for at least the next year. It's in response to recent criticism from people experiencing cancellations or major changes to existing insurance policies based on the new law.
In Minnesota, insurance companies aren't allowed to cancel plans outright. But insurance companies have sent notices to at least 140,000 people saying their existing policy could be altered.
A statement from the Department of Commerce, which regulates Minnesota insurance companies, says agency leaders are working with state and federal officials to figure out how Obama's announcement will affect Minnesota.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Curtis Granderson hit a sacrifice fly in the 11th inning and the New York Yankees avoided a three-game sweep by defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2 on Sunday.
Alfonso Soriano started the winning rally with a one-out double off Jamey Wright (2-2). He stole third and came home on Granderson's fly ball to center.
Mariano Rivera, making his last regular-season appearance at Tropicana Field, received a standing ovation before getting the final three outs for his 38th save. The closer is planning to retire after this season.
Jordan Danks homered after replacing the injured Avisail Garcia, backing a solid start by his brother John and helping the surging White Sox beat the Rangers in Chicago.
The White Sox took two of three from the AL West leaders, giving them eight victories in their last nine games.
Josh Phegley went deep after hitting the winning single in the ninth inning the previous night. John Danks (4-10) outpitched Matt Garza (3-2), allowing two runs over six innings for his second straight win.
A rare bright spot in a miserable season for Chicago was tempered by Garcia crashing into the right-field fence and slowly walking off the field.
Mark Buehrle allowed one run over eight innings and the Blue Jays rallied for two runs in the ninth inning to snap a seven-game losing streak with a win over the Astros in Houston.
Buehrle (10-7) allowed seven hits and struck out seven in winning his fifth straight. He has allowed seven runs over 27 innings, spanning his last four starts. Casey Janssen pitched the ninth for his 23rd save.
Robbie Grossman had two hits to extend his hitting streak to 12 games for the Astros, who have yet to sweep a series at home this season.
Moises Sierra drew a bases loaded walk to tie the game at 1-1 in the ninth. Following Sierra's walk, Chia-Jen Lo (0-2) struck out Kevin Pillar before Kevin Chapman induced a run-scoring groundout by Ryan Goins to put Toronto in front 2-1.
Drew Stubbs hit a tiebreaking, two-out homer in the eighth inning and the Indians overcame four errors to beat the Twins in Cleveland.
Stubbs homered to dead center on a 0-1 pitch from Jared Burton (2-7) to snap a 1-all tie and lift the Indians to a crucial win in their quest a spot in the American League playoffs. Joe Smith (5-1) pitched a scoreless eighth and Chris Perez worked the ninth for his 21st save.
The Indians entered the day trailing Oakland by 2 1/2 games for the AL's second wild-card spot, but didn't look like a playoff contender for much of the day. In addition to the four errors, the Indians made several other mistakes, both in the field and on the bases but managed to survive before starting a crucial road trip to Atlanta and Detroit that begins Tuesday.
Nick Swisher added an RBI single in the eighth.
In Baltimore, Chris Davis had two hits and collected his 118th RBI, and the Orioles hit three home runs in a rout of the Athletics.
J.J. Hardy, Nick Markakis and Nate McLouth connected for the Orioles, who took two of three from Oakland to move within two games of the Athletics in the race for the second AL wild-card slot.
Oakland had gone 105 straight games since April 25 without allowing 10 runs. Rookie Sonny Gray (1-2) absorbed the brunt of the damage, yielding six runs and eight hits in 3 1-3 innings.
Scott Feldman (4-3) gave up one run in five innings for the Orioles.
In Seattle, Jered Weaver gave up just three hits in eight strong innings, Kole Calhoun added a two-run homer and the Angels completed a three-game sweep of the Mariners.
The Angels gave Weaver plenty of run support by coming through in clutch situations. The Angels first seven runs were scored with two outs, including Calhoun's homer, a two-run triple by Chris Nelson and an RBI triple from Peter Bourjos.
Weaver (8-7) continued the Angels pitching dominance in the three-game series, where they allowed two runs. His only mistake was giving up a solo home run to Dustin Ackley with one-out in the third inning on a 3-2 pitch. But Weaver followed by retiring 15 of the next 16 batters. He struck out eight, but wasn't given the chance at his first complete game since August 2012.
In Kansas City, Mo., Salvador Perez homered early, then drove in the tiebreaking run in the eighth and the Royals ended their seven-game losing streak, rebounding for a victory after blowing a 4-0 lead against Washington.
With two out and a runner on first and the game tied 4-all in the eighth, Billy Butler hit a hard grounder that first baseman Adam LaRoche knocked down. The ball rolled several feet to his right and when Stammen was late to cover the bag, the slow-running Butler kept the inning going by chugging to first with an infield single. Stammen then walked Mike Moustakas on fourth pitches and Perez hit a hard grounder to shortstop Ian Desmond. He bobbled momentarily and his throw to third was late, allowing the tiebreaking run to cross the plate on what was first ruled a fielder's choice and then changed to an infield single before David Lough's RBI single made it 6-4.
Kelvin Herrera (5-6) pitched 1 1-3 innings of relief for only the Royals' third victory in 13 games. Craig Stammen (7-6) took the loss and was part of a shaky defense that led to the Nationals' first loss in six road outings.

It's been a rough week. A few days ago, at UCLA's Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital, 6-year-old Jani toppled a food cart and was confined to her room. She slammed her head against the floor, opening a bloody cut that sent her into hysterics. Later, she kicked the hospital therapy dog.
Jani normally likes animals. But most of her animal friends -- cats, rats, dogs and birds -- are phantoms that only she can see. January Schofield has schizophrenia. Potent psychiatric drugs -- in doses that would stagger most adults -- seem to skip off her. She is among the rarest of the rare: a child seemingly born mentally ill.
She suffers from delusions, hallucinations and paroxysms of rage so severe that not even her parents feel safe. She's threatened to climb into an oven. She's kicked and tried to bite her little brother. "I'm Jani, and I have a cat named Emily 54," she says, by way of introduction. "And I'm Saturn-the-Rat's baby sitter."
She locks her fingers in front of her chest and flexes her wrists furiously, a tic that surfaces when she's anxious.
She announces that she wants to be a veterinarian.
"I'm empathetic with rats," she says.
Asked what "empathetic" means, she smiles confidently. "It means you like rats."
The doctors have been trying a new antipsychotic medication, called Moban. Jani knows she is sick and that people want to help her.
"Is the Moban working?" her mother asks Jani during a visit.
"No. I have more friends."
Susan Schofield looks crestfallen.
She and her husband, Michael Schofield, have brought French fries. Jani takes a bite, runs around the room and circles back for another bite.
"You want the rats and cats to go away, don't you?" Susan asks, trying to make eye contact with her daughter.
Jani stuffs a French fry into her mouth.
"No," she says. "They're cool. Rats are cool."
About 1% of adults have schizophrenia; most become ill in their late teens or 20s. Approximately one in 10 will commit suicide.
Doctors and other mental health experts don't fully understand the disease, which has no cure. Jani's extreme early onset has left them almost helpless. The rate of onset in children 13 and under is about one in 30,000 to 50,000. In a national study of 110 children, only one was diagnosed as young as age 6.
"Child-onset schizophrenia is 20 to 30 times more severe than adult-onset schizophrenia," says Dr. Nitin Gogtay, a neurologist at the National Institute of Mental Health who helps direct the children's study, the largest such study in the world on the illness.
"Ninety-five percent of the time they are awake these kids are actively hallucinating," Gogtay says. "I don't think I've seen anything more devastating in all of medicine."
For Jani's parents, the most pressing issue is where Jani should live. She has been on the UCLA psych ward -- where she was placed during an emergency -- since Jan. 16. The ward is not designed for long-term care.
Jani can't return to her family's apartment in Valencia. Last fall, she tried to jump out of a second-story window.
Her parents -- Michael, a college English instructor, and Susan, a former radio traffic reporter -- must decide how to provide as much stability as possible for their daughter while also trying to protect their 18-month-old son.
"If Jani was 16, there would be resources," Michael says. "But very few hospitals, private or public, will take a 6-year-old."
Born Aug. 8, 2002, Jani was different from the start, sleeping fitfully for only about four hours a day. Most infants sleep 14 to 16 hours a day. Only constant, high-energy stimulation kept Jani from screaming.
"For the first 18 months, we would take her to malls, play areas, IKEA, anywhere we could find crowds," says Michael, 33. "It was impossible to overstimulate her. We would leave at 8 in the morning and be gone for 14 hours. We could not come home until Jani had been worn out enough so that she would sleep a couple of hours."
When Jani turned 3, her tantrums escalated. She lasted three weeks in one preschool and one week in another. She demanded to be called by different names; Rainbow one day, Blue-eyed Tree Frog the next. Make-believe friends filled her days -- mostly rats and cats and, sometimes, little girls.
She threw her shoes at people when angry and tried to push the car out of gear while Michael was driving. The usual disciplinary strategies parents use to teach their young children proper behavior -- time-outs, rules, positive rewards -- failed time and again for the Schofields.
"She would go into these rages where she would scream, hit, kick, scratch and bite. She could say, 'Mommy, I love you,' and seconds later switch into being really violent," Michael says.
Kindergarten lasted one week.
The Schofields consulted doctors and heard myriad opinions: bipolar disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, ineffective parenting. No one considered schizophrenia.
In December 2007, they were referred to Dr. Linda Woodall, a psychiatrist in Glendale. Jani's medical records for the following year depict a doctor searching for effective medications while her patient slid further into a world stalked by rats and cats.
July 8, 2008: Claps hands, hops (tic-like); food can't touch; strips clothes off if she thinks they have a spot. Wants order and perfection in play, toys, stories.
Nov. 11, 2008: Talking to a "bird named 34" on her hand. Drawing on her clothes and body with permanent marker. Screaming at school and in the waiting room.
Jan. 7, 2009: Patient is psychotic; talking to rats naming them the days of the week . . . I believe it would be in the best interests of January and her family to have her placed in residential treatment.
Her parents named her January because they loved the sound of it. But this year, the month of January became the breaking point for a fragile family.
Jani's torment had escalated through much of 2008. She was hospitalized last fall for three weeks.
Jani tried, and failed, again to attend school. She choked herself with her hands, hit her head on the walls and said she wanted to die.
"Home was a nightmare, and school was a nightmare," Michael says.
A new imaginary friend named 400-the-Cat moved in. He told her to kick and hit other people. "We realized she didn't control her imaginary friends. They controlled her," Michael says. Many phantoms populated her mind now: two little girls named 100 Degrees and 24 Hours; 200-the-Rat; Magical 61-the-Cat; and 400.
Susan, 39, was laid off from her job in September, and although money was tight, she felt almost relieved. Jani needed constant supervision.
Woodall decided to try a new drug, Haldol, 1 milligram, twice a day. It seemed to calm Jani, and 400-the-Cat went away.
The Schofields made another attempt at first grade, sending Jani to school Jan. 12. But that day, the muscles on the left side of her body locked up, and the school called paramedics. She had developed dystonia, a movement disorder that causes involuntary contractions of muscles. It's a side effect of high doses of some psychotropic medications.
On Jan. 16, Michael dropped his daughter off at school again. "She seemed fine that morning," he said. She was taking a lower dose of Haldol plus medications to quell psychosis and stabilize mood.
But at 9:15, she began screaming that she wanted to see her brother, Bodhi. She threw her pencils and shoes, tried to jump out of the classroom window, then ran down the halls. The assistant principal called Michael and told him to come and take his daughter home.
Michael was drained.
"I knew if we took her home we couldn't get any help anywhere," he says. "We were fed up with nobody believing us, nobody helping us."
He refused.
The principal called the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and reported that the parents had abandoned their misbehaving child. Three school psychologists were summoned by the assistant principal, and a sheriff's deputy called for a team of emergency psychiatric workers.
Jani was locked in an empty office playing with 24 Hours. The experts concluded she was psychotic and took her to UCLA.
Each day, before the Schofields visit, they stop at a Burger King for lunch and order take-out for Jani.
"So many people just thought we had a bratty kid," says Michael, feeding Bodhi as he squirms in a high chair in the restaurant. "UCLA was the first to tell us: 'It's not your fault -- there is something wrong with her brain.' "
When her family arrives, Jani looks surprised to see them although they visit every day. She is wearing a lime-green T-shirt and pink skirt with turquoise rubber shoes. Her hair is tousled. Her legs carry the last traces of baby fat. Susan dabs toothpaste on a toothbrush and runs it over her daughter's teeth for a few seconds -- the only dental care Jani will allow.
"I'd rather be 16," Jani says, putting a hand on her hip and tossing a flirty look over her shoulder. "I'm 14 on weekends, Thursdays, Wednesdays and Tuesdays."
She pauses. "All except for Mondays."
She loves Littlest Pet Shop toys, miniature animals with houses and furniture, and stacks them on a shelf in her room.
Although she can't sit still long enough to read a book, she is a voracious learner. She's also bright -- her IQ is 146. Over the years, Michael and Susan have entertained her by feeding her information well beyond her years: specifics of evolution, the Roman Empire, the periodic table of elements.
"What is the atomic symbol for tungsten?" Susan asks.
Jani talks about living in Calalini.
Where is Calalini?
She leans in to whisper her secret.
"Calalini is on the border between this world and my other world."
Jani's psychiatrist at UCLA, Dr. Karen Lim, has tried several medications. A whopping 300 milligrams of Thorazine manages to stop the psychosis, but it too causes dystonia.
Michael worries that the heavy doses of medication might kill his daughter. But without it, she might kill herself. Jani had recently told Michael that the temperature in Calalini had risen to 200 degrees -- a sign that her hallucinations are worsening. She also says that 400-the-Cat is being really bossy.
On a mid-April afternoon, Michael and Susan meet with Lim and Jani's social worker, Georgia Wagniere, to discuss the rejections from two residential facilities that primarily care for children who have been abused or neglected but are not severely mentally ill. No one wants to take in a 6-year-old schizophrenic.
"I feel like we're back to zero again," Michael says.
Susan proposes that the couple trade in their two-bedroom apartment and rent two one-bedroom units in the same complex. One parent would live with Bodhi and one with Jani on alternating days.
The group discusses the stress on the couple. Both Michael and Susan have relatives who were mentally ill, and both struggle with depression and take antidepressants. They receive no help from their families.
"It's been very taxing," Wagniere says. "It has disrupted your entire life; your finances, your mental status."
"I'm prepared to go the rest of my life like this," Michael says. "I'm not hanging on to the hope that she'll get better. My biggest fear is that she won't live to 18."
"I have more hope," Susan says softly, staring at the floor.
Bodhi begins fussing. Michael and Susan thank Wagniere and Lim and leave to visit Jani.
Lim gathers her papers and follows them down the hall. She has recently issued a formal diagnosis of child-onset schizophrenia. The case has tested the limits of the young doctor's expertise.
"Jani knows she is different from other children," she says. "She has a degree of insight. She says, 'If my parents don't love me, I'll go live with my rats.' "
Lim sighs.
"I would like to give the parents more hope that she won't kill herself."
She catches up to Michael and Susan and unlocks the three heavy security doors that separate the children's unit from the rest of the hospital. Jani's hair is pulled back in a braid. She begins to show off her Littlest Pet Shops.
A boy hospitalized on the unit passes by the open door of Jani's room and slams it shut. A stunned look crosses Jani's face. She pauses for a few seconds, then marches across the room announcing she is going to hit the boy. Michael stops her and tries to redirect her attention to her Pet Shop. But she turns on him, jumping and butting her head under his chin.
He winces and holds her arms as she kicks him in the legs, butts her head into his chest and tries to bite him through his T-shirt. "I just want to hit him! I just want to hit him!"
Hospital staff rush in and restrain her on the bed.
Jani's wailing rings down the hall. "I just want to hit him!"
About 20 minutes later, a tired Michael emerges from the room to drive home with Susan and Bodhi.
"She's calm now," he says. "But the next time she sees him, she'll hit him."
Finally, a break. A combination of Tegretol, Thorazine and lithium has blunted some of the rage and coaxed a few of the phantoms from Jani's mind. Lim discharges her June 1 after 133 days in the hospital.
The two apartments are ready. Jani will live in 925; Bodhi, just across the parking lot in 1035. Jani's apartment is modeled after the psychiatric ward. Her room has only a bed so that, during a tantrum, she can be placed where she won't hurt herself. The living room is called the day room and is packed with toys and games. The kitchen is the supply room.
The Schofields bought walkie-talkies to communicate between apartments. Michael has written Jani's schedule on a large white board, just like the hospital staff did: 14:00, occupational therapy; 15:00, quiet time; 16:00, outdoors; 17:00, dinner; 18:00, recreational therapy.
Whoever stays with Jani at night is referred to as her "staff."
Michael has been worried about paying rent on two places. But, he says, "We want her home. When she's not in Calalini -- where they all are -- we can have a relationship with her. We want to take what we can get."
The Schofields have sought home-based special services but aren't hopeful. They've tried to get respite care from a center that helps people with developmental disabilities but were told the service was available only for parents of autistic children.
"We've developed sort of a bunker mentality," Michael says. "Every time Susan and I have relied on other people, we've been disappointed."
Jani's school, however, will take her back, in a special-education classroom.
The family arrives at Jani's new home around 3 p.m. on a Monday.
"Honey!" Jani shouts, running across the parking lot to hug the family dog she hasn't seen in 4 1/2 months.
The wide-eyed, penetrating gaze Jani wore in the hospital -- when she stared as if trying to see into a person's brain -- is gone. She has spoken little of 400-the-Cat in recent days. But she flaps her hands and rarely stops moving as Michael and Susan show her a cupboard full of prizes she can earn with good behavior. As she becomes familiar with the three small rooms, she begins to relax. She laughs when Bodhi fusses. Friends have come by to visit and share in the homecoming.
"This is actually a very happy day," says Michael, as he takes in the scene. "She has beaten back probably the most severe mental illness known to man. My hope now is that we can maintain this stability for a while."
Jani opens the door to a small balcony where her parents have set up an easel with paper, markers, paints and chalk. She grabs chalk, scribbles on the board and looks up at her parents, grinning.
"Oh-oh," says Susan, with a sigh. She steps back and calls for Michael to have a look. He does. He says nothing.
It's been a rough week. A few days ago, at UCLA's Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital, 6-year-old Jani toppled a food cart and was confined to her room. She slammed her head against the floor, opening a bloody cut that sent her into hysterics. Later, she kicked the hospital therapy dog.

Things I know-the home from hospital edition
-There is nothing to prepare you for having a child so sick that they cannot wake up fully, stand up or eat
-There really is no place like home
-a good and caring nurse is worth their weight in gold
-sleeping on a bed that doesn't crackle with plastic protector everything is so quiet
-hospital food really isn't that bad
-getting a private room is probably the only advantage to not knowing exactly what is wrong with your sick child
-having an toddler who is not eating makes you so so grateful that you are breatfeeding
-only expensive, fancy disposables contain liquid poo fountains of the toddler variety.
-when you have been away from your big kids for 3 nights they will look older when you see them again
-seeing your very sick child start to turn a corner towards getting better will make you so very grateful, especially when you see some of the long term patients at the children's hospital you are at
-getting the all clear for meningococcal will make you feel like high fiving the doctor
-getting the OK to go home with instructions to "rest up and breastfed as often as you can" will make you feel like hugging the doctor
-looking beside you and seeing this on your own couch in your own home is too wonderful to put into words

So glad to hear you and Harper are home.
I know too well the feelings you describe. Our love and fear for our children when they are sick is so strong.
Kudos to the Dr saying to rest and boob as much as you can, that is good to hear they said that.
Much love to you all.

Google hasn't announced the results of its Android Developers Challenge -- that happens later this month -- but it's already getting grief from contestants who are sure that they're not going to get a cut of the $5 million in prize money.
What are their complaints? Basically, they don't like the contest they entered of their own accord:
- Google (GOOG) has appointed a single point person to handle
developer queries. Apparently he's not getting back to them fast
- Google hasn't told them if they've won yet or not.
- Google hasn't told them who's judging the contest, so they
don't know whom to complain to.
- Google hasn't convinced them that the contest isn't rigged.
Forgive us if we seem less than sympathetic. But we do have a good solution for developers who are worried that Google won't address these terrible problems before the second round of the Challenge: Don't enter.
That doesn't mean that developers need to walk away from Android, as they're threatening to do. Unlike Apple (AAPL), which is tightly controlling third-party apps created for the iPhone, Google isn't gating access to its mobile platform. So you don't have to win Google's contest to get people using your Android app. You just have to make something people like.

Higurashi Q & A
This thread is for those with questions about the Higurashi no Naku Koroni anime, game and manga. Please keep discussion about episodes in the relevant threads, the purpose of this thread is to ask questions that can actually be answered as facts from the anime, game or manga.
Make sure you use spoiler tags if your question is about the game or manga (or any non-anime source). Untagged spoilers are risking a ban. If you don't know how to use a spoiler tag, please read this FAQ.
Spoiler tag example
[spoiler=title]Don't forget to use a title for the spoiler![/spoiler] becomes
Spoiler for title:
Please read the Higurashi no Naku Koro ni wikipedia article that has been made before you ask questions. I made the the wikipedia article as detailed as I can which may answer your questions beforehand.
Brief rundown of the arcs and chapters in sequential order for quick reference in the future:
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni ("Question" arc)
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai ("Answer" arc)
EDIT: Also, I'm going to try to keep this FAQ section as clean as possible, so I will be moving some irrelevant posts to the correct thread and what not from time to time.
Please do not ask incessant questions regarding the availability of an English patch of the original doujin game version of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Questions like these pop up everytime an anime based on a game comes along, and the answer is the same all over: little to no one in the English speaking world had an interest in this game before it aired, so there exists no such thing.
By the time it does get translated several months from now, there will be another game-based anime that will come along and people ask the same question again for that title. By that time, people would've already finished watching the other show and they'll lose interest. I can already forsee people saying the exact same question when Tsuyokiss or Yoake Mae Yori Ruri Iro Na starts airing. It's the same cycle over and over.
If you want to play the game, BUY it and play through it with a Japanese dictionary on hand. Besides, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni isn't that expensive like an ero-game or consumer game anyway. If you can spare 1500 yen (plus shipping) you can get the whole question arc (Onikakushi-hen~Himatsubushi-hen) in one disc. And if you can spare another 1000 yen (plus shipping), you can get the answer arc that is out right now (Meakashi-hen~Minagoroshi-hen) in one disc as well.
Is it possible that the show could "squish" all the answers into two answer arcs? The show will be ending after the 8th chapter of the game is released, after all, right? Has anything been said to this effect?
Question number two, yarr.
Are there any known English translations of the Higurashi game floating around out there? Fan translations, official ones, etc?
Given the tremendous and uproar success Higurashi no Naku Koroni, the game, among the fan players in Japan has amassed, do the game's creator, Ryukishi07, would encourage themselves to come up with a sequel to the game in an unknown future?
I'm neither implying nor assuming that scenario could bound to happen.
I already read thoroughly the Wikipedia article.
Also, I know that there's still one more game scenario to be released in Japan by August, and that the game will be ported to the PS2 consumer port.
My aforementioned question was just a hypothetically one.
I remember from several posts that all these arcs are somewhat independent of each other, yet at the same time exists on at the same time. Is this game's storyline simulating the Butterfly Effect?
A question and an observation-cum-question:
1) If the show is "only" going to go to Tsumihoroboshi-hen, then we're not going to get the full answer, are we?
2) If we were to get the answer, wouldn't this be counterproductive, since it would spoil the game and conceivably affect sales? So, honestly speaking, can't we expect that the anime will peter out into uncertainty?
I know the last chapter has not been released yet, but is it conceivable for Minagoroshi-hen and Matsuribayashi-hen to contain enough material for a Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai show, even if that would only be ~13 eps? Does Minagoroshi-hen contain enough for, say 6 episodes?
I would hate for the show to just end at an unfulfilling ending instead of a "best" ending.
Out of curiosity, is Frederica Bernkastel a real person? I googled for the name and all I came upon were Japanese websites, which I assume are talking about Higurashi.
In comparison, the story and ending of Tsumihorobosh-hen is a relatively safe one. In fact, as long as the anime leave out Tsumihoroboshi-hen's final TIP "悪魔の脚本" (The Demon's Script), which isn't obtainable until after Tsumihoroboshi-hen is over, then Tsumihoroboshi-hen's ending would actually make a very good series finale. (Of course, if they really end the anime with Tsumihoroboshi's ending as-is, then that's a problem too, since without Minagoroshi-hen's "full answers", there will be more holes left in the mystery than a sponge).
(To explain a little bit more, the final TIP (Demon's Script) of Tsumihoroboshi provided a way for the story to continue on. Without that TIP, the story of Higurashi no Naku Koroni probably would've ended with Tsumihoroboshi)
In the end, I don't think they'll try to change the story to make up an original ending or anything. Most likely, they'll just show the anime as it is, and if you want to find out the real truth (fill up the sponge holes), you'll just going to have to buy the game.
Honestly, I don't know what they're going to do with the ending (so don't take what I said above too seriously). The only suggestion I can give is to just enjoy the story for what it is without thinking too much.
Minagoroshi, on the other hand, probably does have enough contents to fill 6 episodes (then again, at 4 episodes, Onikakushi-hen was already pretty rushed, and it's one of the shortest chapters).
I'm not holding my breath for a second season based on only these last two chapters, but hey, you never know.
Here's a page that has all her(?) poems organized:
Then again, kj must be doing a good job if his translations fooled you into thinking that the poems were in English to begin with. :heh:
Is there anyway to label what tips come from what ep. or at least what chapter?
Hi, I was surfing the net and came up with a small preview clip called Higurashi Motion Graphic vol.3 so after some research I found this web site:
Higurashi Motion Graphic
(I don't even know its real name since it's in Japanese :heh: )
Anyway, I found in the download section 3 preview clips of what seems to be Higurashi no Naku Koroni but with radically different graphics. Could anyone please tell me what it's all about? These movies seem very nice and I wonder if they can be acquired?
Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai (なかない君と嘆きの世界) is a MAD music video series based on Higurashi. There has been 3 releases:
- Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai (なかない君と嘆きの世界)
Based on Onikakushi-hen
- Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai -Soushunfu- (なかない君と嘆きの世界 -ソウシュンフ-)
Based on Watanagashi-hen + Meakashi-hen
- Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai Utage (なかない君と嘆きの世界 宴)
Based on Tatarigoroshi-hen
All of them features original music tracks (sung by Shinra Etsuko), created specifically for the video.
The demo clips (to avoid hot-linking, copy and paste the url into your address field and type back in the "w" in front (to make "www"):
Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai
Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai -Soushunfu-
Nakanai Kimi to Nageki no Sekai Utage
Oh, go here and you might find something good ;):
(what about the others, you ask? Well, only after the anime covers them first ;))
(Personally, Utage was my favorite, both the song and the video. Hey what do you know, Tatarigoroshi-hen was my favorite chapter too! :heh: Maybe you might see it sometime in the future. Maybe say, after the anime's Tatarigoroshi-hen ends? ;))
How do the chapters relate time-wise to the first?
I mean like, how does the second 'chapter' (epi 5-?) relate timewise from 1-4
And I didn't really understand it before (the way you guys stated it..butterfly effect?) but these are alternate universes right?
How do these relate to the game, if the game is a choice game- Is this only one of the many set paths, or in the game, do the paths all lead up to this with different hints and clues, etc.?

Ohio lags in recession recovery
In most of the country, new applications for unemployment benefits were down during the week of Christmas, the federal government reported. Not in Ohio: Claims in the Buckeye State were up 1,529 from the same week in 2012. Layoffs in manufacturing were blamed.
Clearly, Ohio's recovery from the Great Recession is lagging. Unemployment in the state actually increased last year, to about 7.4 percent. The rise was a steady progression during all 12 months.
That is leading Gov. John Kasich to recommend that Ohio legislators approve another reduction in the personal income tax. A previously enacted cut will shave 10 percent off the tax by next year.
"If you want ohio to move faster, we have to reduce this personal income tax," Kasich told business leaders recently.
He is right, as the unemployment numbers demonstrate. More money needs to be going into the state's economy, not to government. If Buckeye State residents have more in their pockets because of an income tax break, they will spend more. Business owners benefitting from the tax cut will put more back into their companies – and probably will hire more people.
Lawmakers may be leery of Kasich's plan for several reasons. One is that local governments continue to pressure Columbus to increase state funding. That money will have to come from somewhere.
Another reason for concern is that Kasich proposes to fund the tax break by increasing severance taxes on some gas and oil wells. That might not be popular here and in East Ohio, where much of the gas industry is centered.
Legislators and the governor must be careful not to throw an obstacle in the way of what probably is the state's fastest growing industry – gas and oil. Kasich insists Ohio would remain competitive even with his proposed severance tax increases. Before agreeing to them, lawmakers should be absolutely certain he is correct.
Still, however, the governor is right: The General Assembly should find some way of providing a tax break to get the state's economy out of the doldrums and on a fast track.

Adopting the bulking machine can both improve the yield of rice bran oil and reduce the consumption. The extrusion puffing, on the one hand, can make solution lipase in the rice bran passivated under high temperature and high pressure condition,then prevent the rice bran oil rancidity; On the other hand, the extrusion puffing can make rice bran be porous mateial , and increases the materials bulk density, then improve the permeability and leaching rate which solvent reacts to the material.
Main Features
Name: Drying process

Original: China
The puffed rice bran contains about 12% water, and the moisture for leaching process is 7-9%, therefore, there must be effective drying means to achieve the leaching moisture.Adopting counter-current dryer can make water and temperature meet with follow-up process requirements, and improve the oil yield, as well as oil quality.

A collection of recipes and style advice that has been tried and tested and most importantly are Yummo!

Clam Spaghetti in White Wine Sauce
So I wanted to go out of my comfort zone and experiment with seafood. I saw that clams were on sale and I thought to myself I was really going to challenge myself. So I apprehensively picked up a 2 pounds of them, a bottle of dry white wine and some yummy crunchy bread and prepared this delicious dish. I found this recipe in my Giada De Laurentiis Everyday Italian book, it seemed easy enough to do and had some flavorful ingredients. The recipe lived up to its expectations and all enjoyed this light, summer dish.
Spaghetti with Clams (From Everyday Italian by Giada De Laurentiis)
Serves 4
1 lb of dried spaghetti
1/2 cup EVOO
2 shallots, finely chopped
5 Garlic cloves, finely chopped ( i would even use a press next time)
2 1/2 lbs of Manila clams, scrubbed clean
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
Freshly grated zest of 1 lemon
Bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until tender but still firm to the bite.
Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium high flame. When almost smoking, add the shallots and saute until soft. Add garlic and sautee until golden brown and the shallots are translucent. Add the clams, wine , 2 tablespoons of parsley and 1/2 Teaspoon each of sea salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until most of the clams are open (tip from the hubby once they open take them right out!). This takes 4-6 minutes. If they don't open, discard. Whisk in butter to thicken the sauce.
Drain spaghetti reserving 1/3 cup of the cooking liquid. Do not rinse spaghetti, this will help the spaghetti to stick to the sauce. Toss the the spaghetti w/ the clam mixture to coat. Add the cooking liquid to moisten.
Transfer the pasta to large serving blow. Spring the lemon zest over the pasta. Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve immediately.

> Biographical Note
Biographical Note
Agnes George de Mille was born in New York City, September 18, 1905, daughter of film producer, William de Mille and Anna (George) de Mille, daughter of economist Henry George. When Agnes was nine years old the family moved to Hollywood where her uncle, Cecil B. de Mille, was a motion picture director. Agnes entered university at age sixteen graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles, with a degree in English. Although she began dancing in her early teens, it was not until after her graduation from college that she seriously considered dancing as a career. She studied with Theodore Koslov, Marie Rambert, Antony Tudor, and Tamara Karasvina, becoming a proficient ballet dancer. In 1925 her parents divorced and she and her sister, Margaret, moved back to New York with their mother. De Mille's first New York performance was in MacKlin Marow's production of Mozart's La Finta Giardiniera in 1927. She choreographed productions through the early 1930s, returning to Hollywood in 1934 to participate in Cecil B. de Mille's Cleopatra, from which she withdrew after differences arose over the dances. De Mille spent the 1937-38 season in England helping to form a ballet troupe in Oxford and choreographing Cole Porter's The Nymph Errant starring Gertrude Lawrence. She staged dances for Leslie Howard's Hamlet (1936), Ed Wynn's Hooray for What?(1937), Swingin' the Dream (1939), and a jazz version of A Midsummer's Night Dream. In 1939 she joined the New York Ballet Theatre as choreographer and performer. During her first season she choreographed Black Ritual, the first ballet of a classical American ballet company to be danced by all black dancers. She then established a company of her own and began a national tour. In 1941, de Mille devised a scenario for Rodeo for the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo which was presented in 1942. In 1943 she did the choreography for Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein's hit musical Oklahoma!. She was one of the first women choreographers to work on Broadway doing the choreography for One Touch of Venus (1943), Bloomer Girl (1944), Carousel (1945), Brigadoon (1947), Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1949), and Paint Your Wagon (1951). De Mille also published articles on dance and several books. These include two autobiographical works: Dance to the Piper (1952), and Promenade Home (1958), To A Young Dancer (1960), The Book of Dance (1963), Lizzie Borden: A Dance of Death (1968), The Dance in America (1971), and Speak to Me, Dance With Me (1973). Despite a stroke and heart attack in the mid 1970s, de Mille continued her writing, publishing two memoirs, Where the Wings Grow (1978) and Reprieve (1981). She also choreographed the ballets The Informer (1988) and The Other (1992).
Agnes de Mille combined American folk dances and American music into classic art and was an innovator in dance who transformed the world of musical comedy forever. She received many awards including twelve honorary degrees, the Antoinette Perry (Tony) Award for best choreography (1947 and 1962), Theatre Hall of Fame (1973), Handel Medallion (1976), John F. Kennedy Center Career Achievement Award (1980), and the National Medal of the Arts (1986).
On June 14, 1943 Agnes de Mille married Walter Foy Prude. They had one son, Jonathan.
She died October 7, 1993 in Manhattan at the age of 88.

William D. Huntsman
Mar 8, 2011
By George Mauzy
Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Chemistry William D. Huntsman died March 4, in Columbus, Ohio.
The 86-year-old former professor began working at Ohio University in 1951 after earning his Ph.D. in 1950 from Northwestern University. He completed his bachelor's degree in chemistry from Ohio University in 1947 after a brief time in the U.S. Navy.
Huntsman spent his entire academic career at Ohio University and was named a Distinguished Professor of Chemistry in 1968. He served as chair of the Department of Chemistry, 1963-68, was a two-time winner of the Dean's Outstanding Teacher Award (1982, 1993) and won the Grasselli Teaching Award in 1991. He also was one of the founders of the Chemistry Ph.D. program in the 1960s.
"Bill was a remarkable teacher," said Dave Hendricker, a retired professor of chemistry who was hired by Huntsman in 1965. "My son Alan majored in chemistry and said Bill was the best chemistry professor he ever had. Bill was kind of a quiet man, but highly respected."
Huntsman's research was in the physical-organic chemistry areas with a special emphasis on the high temperature reactions of certain hydrocarbons. He received research grants from the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, National Science Foundation, Petroleum Research Fund of the ACS and the Ohio University Research Fund.
Lauren McMills, assistant chair of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, said she once taught a general chemistry class with Huntsman and learned a lot from him.
"I remember that his students adored him and his class evaluations were always top notch," McMills said. "He was an excellent researcher. He was the complete package and just a wonderful person. He will be missed."
Huntsman was a member of the American Chemical Society, Royal Society of Chemistry, Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, Alpha Chi Sigma, and was an honorary member of the Blue Key Society.
A native of Washington County, Ohio, Huntsman is survived by his wife, Rosemary Cooper, a son and a daughter and two stepsons. He also leaves behind 12 grandchildren and two sisters.
Monetary contributions in Huntsman's honor can be made to The Bill Huntsman Award for Organic Chemistry Students through the Ohio University Development Office.

Forster's Late Goal Wins It For Yale
WEST HARTFORD, Conn. – Perhaps not surprisingly, it took the Yale women's soccer team a little while to get going Friday in its season opener. After all, the Bulldogs were playing a Hartford team that already had two games under its belt. Once Yale found its rhythm, though, the results for impressive.
The Bulldogs scored twice in the final 10 minutes to erase a 1-0 deficit and escape with a thrilling 2-1 win over the Hawks on a gorgeous night at Al Marzook Field.
Senior Kristen Forster scored the game-winner with just 26 seconds left in the second half.
Freshman Ally Grossman scored her first career goal with 9:42 left to tie the score.
"I can't ever remember winning our first game of the season in the last 30 seconds," said Yale head coach Rudy Meredith. "We had first-game jitters early probably because we still haven't played together a whole lot yet, but we were much better in the second half and were much more composed."
Freshman Paula Hagopian set up the winning goal when she sent a cross into the box that came to Forster, who knocked it in from three yards out.
"Paula came off the bench and really gave us a spark," Meredith said. "She made a great pass into the box, and Kristen stayed really composed and was able to finish it."
Hartford (1-1-1) had grabbed the early lead when Amelia Pereira scored at 7:56.
It took awhile, but the Bulldogs finally got the equalizer with 9:42 remaining when Grossman put home a rebound.
Yale finished with a 7-5 edge in shots and a 10-1 advantage in penalty kicks.
Adele Jackson-Gibson made two saves to post the victory in goal.
Meredith was very pleased with his team's play late in the game.
"We've been working really hard to finish games strong," he said. "I thought we were the fitter team at the end."
The Bulldogs are back in action on Sunday when they travel to Stony Brook. Kickoff is slated for 2 p.m.

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art has made a formal proposal to acquire the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, which has been struggling with financial troubles and staff and board defections.
LACMA Director Michael Govan and the two co-chairs of his board made the offer in a Feb. 24 letter to the MOCA board co-chairs, laying out the rationale for an acquisition.
The letter said that LACMA would preserve MOCA's two downtown locations and operate them under the MOCA name, according to people who have seen the letter but were not authorized to discuss it publicly.

For its part, LACMA would agree to raise $100 million for the combined museums as a condition for completing the deal, these people said.

According to IDG News Service, a company based in the UK is working around the clock without overtime in order to crack the iPhone's security system. The system in question is, of course, the fact that the iPhone is locked to a certain carrier (AT&T) and prevents non-AT&T customers from using the device as a phone.
The engineers hacking for Uniquephones are based in several countries and are fighting against a sweltering summer heat wave in order to allow iPhone customers to use a SIM card and network-supported carrier of their choice. John McLaughlin, the man in charge of the operation and founder of Uniquephones, told IDG that "there is at least a two-step process to unlocking an iPhone." As it turns out, unlocking the phones is quite a bit more complicated than some of us thought.
So far, he has had success with step 1: unlocking the actual AT&T activation process, so that other AT&T SIM cards can work with the phone and be actviated through iTunes. This is pretty much what DVD Jon did the other day when he released his iPhone crack to unlock the iPod/WiFi features without an AT&T activation. However, the next big step is unlocking the phone so that it allows all SIM cards, and unfortunately "any attempt to change the firmware of an iPhone so it can support another carrier's SIM card breaks the phone." In order to get around this, Uniquephones engineers will need to "[break] the encryption process that protects the token sent through the iTunes activation process to an iPhone's firmware."
Originally, McLaughlin thought unlocking the iPhone was going to be as easy as providing AT&T customers with unlock codes, but "sometime over the weekend after iPhones went on sale, unlock codes from AT&T for about 6,000 iPhones disappeared from the carrier's database." Of course, unlocking the iPhone turned out to be a bit trickier than planned. In the US, it is legal to unlock a locked-GSM phone under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, although McLaughlin says Apple will "probably come after us for copyright infringement."
The iPhone firmware crack from Uniquephones will cost users $49.99 when it is finished. If other hackers get to it first, McLaughlin has confidence that "it won't be hard for [Uniquephones] to replicate what others have done once the encryption is cracked."

The leader of the California Senate says holes in the state's oversight of physicians, exposed in recent Los Angeles Times articles about prescription drug deaths, are "extremely troubling" and need to be corrected "as quickly as we can."
Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento) said he would put his political muscle behind legislation to give the Medical Board of California more investigators and broader authority to stop reckless prescribing of addictive medications.
He said he would champion other measures as well, including a bill to require California's county coroners to report to the medical board all fatal overdoses involving prescription drugs, so the board can determine whether excessive prescribing played a role.
In interviews, Steinberg said he was acting in response to recent Times articles about the epidemic of prescription drug deaths and the role played by corrupt or negligent physicians and pharmacists.

In terms of financial solutions, such a source is for sure a very tough thing to find. Most of us, during such times, tend to depend on our friends. But financial matters are pretty private affairs. Most of us prefer to keep it a secret from our friends and relatives. Therefore you need a font that is reliable and adequate, and can provide you with timely help, besides also guaranteeing you the ultimate privacy. You have to drive to the cash advance store, stand in line, get grilled by some employee that asks all sorts of judging questions, show a ton of identification, and then wait while the powers that be decide if you are worthing for a few hundred bucks. If you live in the Greater Houston area you can skip all that noise and get a payday loan online from our website. Click here, for more relevant content..
Paycheck loans are primarily devised to provide you with an instant financial help. These loans are provided assessing validity of your income source. Your income source is assessed by a valid checking account that should back a sustained income source for a period of at least 90 days with you. You have to also put your social security number for your personal information besides this. A post dated paycheck is required that is signed by you for the equal amount you wish with you loan, for the safety of the loan amount generally.
I really didn't know…
Paycheck Loans provide you a little amount for your little expenses. Here, loan amount is decided by your monthly income and can be of up to the half of it. Generally, the amount that is taken with these loans varies from £100 to £1500 that repaid once you take your next paycheck. The usual utility period of this loan ranges from 7-15 days that is also extendable up to 30 days on simple request. You can invest the loan amount on a series of usual expenses like, utility bills, medical charges, repairing a car etc. paycheck loans? No matter how much you feel you are aware about paycheck loans, visit http://www.houstontxpaydayloans.com, to go deeper into this topic..
Well, with Paycheck Loans, can you get all that and much more! Paycheck Loans are small loans, that can be anywhere between $50 to $1500, that one can draw out for a month through a lender company and then return the loan within a month or once you have your paycheck for the month.
Paycheck loans are also called payday loans by some and basically what they're is a brief term loan. Paycheck loans allow you to borrow anywhere from $50 to $1000 dollars almost immediately. They need to be paid back within two weeks, usually on your next payday, hence the reason they get the name payday loans or paycheck loans.
It's true that the rights and interest rates for these loans can be sky high, but since they're very short term and for emergency use that's normally not a vast concern for most. Keep in mind though that you could end up paying as much as $30 for a $100 loan. Paycheck loans can be either a lifesaver in the event of an emergency, even under the high costs.
There is very little interest rate on the principal amount, besides the processing fee that is required by the lender company.
There is no major paperwork that has to be submitted, however, there are some basic information that are bound by every paycheck lender company. These include the length of your employment – which ought to be a minimum period of three months, and a minimal pay of $1000. You also need to be at least 18 years of age to be in a position to apply for the loan and constitute a permanent resident of USA, and once you have supplied such information to the lender company, you're good to go! The loan is directly transferred to your bank account if the loan is approved and it is on the basis of the same bank account that you're required to make out a post dated cheque.
Compared to a bank loan these loans are much more ideal, since the interest rate on them is very minimal, and since the loan can be paid off within a month, therefore the interest on the principal amount does not keep on increasing. Paycheck Loans, on the other hand, are also pretty easy to obtain and the process is not as lengthy as compared to bank loan's process.
And unlike a bank loan, whose monthly installments can go on for a lifetime, in a paycheck loan you can be held with the entire loan within one month period. If for some reason, however, you're unable to pay back the loan within a month, then you always have the option to renew or extend the loan, but in this condition, the interest rate would keep on multiplying. But do remember that the principal amount is fairly low; therefore the constant renewing of the loan can give rise to the interest amount getting to be more than the principal amount.
The loan providers of paycheck loans online are carrying an extremely high risk not having any assurance that the borrower will repay the loan, therefore the loans carry a higher interest rate than a personal loan from the bank.
Also do remember that when choosing a lender company that it a reliable and a reputed company, and not just not another scam site. You can always ask around from your friends and relatives unless they can refer a good lender company to you.

As mentioned in my previous post here, my 3rd great grandfather, Emery Waller, served in the Civil War. But as if that isn't enough, he is also my first step in punching a ticket into Daughters of the American Revolution as his grandfather, Ashbel Waller, served in the Revolutionary War. As I'm sure you know, in order to join DAR you must "prove" that you are a descendant of the Revolutionary War patriot. I'm 99% sure I've got the details right but until I can prove it, I'm out of luck.
After a few days of mulling it over and figuring out what I needed to do in order to request the pension file, I needed a little shove. I put a status update on facebook asking if anyone who had ordered and received a pension file would answer some questions. As luck would have it, Amy Coffin answered the call. I learned about Amy's blog last fall when she was blogging about the Anatomy of a Civil War Record and as I read those blog entries, I knew that someday I would have a pension file of my very own. So a special thanks to Amy for answering my questions and pushing me over the edge!
I will add that it took awhile to find the pension card in footnote but Amy helped me change my search so that I was able to find him by searching by the 107th Illinois Regiment rather than by his name. Which made all the difference in the world because he was listed as Emery WELLERS even though it clearly (at least to me) said Waller.
|Emery Waller's Pension Card
from footnote.com
I'm dreaming of a treasure chest of information from Emery's file. My hope is that I'll learn his date and place of death, his wife's maiden name, and if I'm really lucky I'll find out something about his parents. While I do know their names, I'd love to have something to confirm it. And if I'm really, really lucky I'll get the file before we leave for a visit to central Illinois in June as we'll be traveling through Emery's hometown and probable place of death.
So who wants to help me with some patience?

Suzuki, who captained the 1999 Bulldogs to a school-record 13 wins, returns for his fourth year as an assistant coach in 2014.
Suzuki has had an immediate impact on the Yale program. In his first year, the Bulldogs won five more games overall than the previous season and three more Ivy games.
As a player at Yale, Suzuki had a key role in one of the most successful stretches in the long history of Yale Soccer. During his four years, the Bulldogs won 44 games, including posting a 17-9-2 mark in Ivy League play. As a senior, he helped Yale to a thrilling victory over Rutgers in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. He was a second team All-Ivy selection as a sophomore and senior and earned first team recognition in his junior year. In all, he started 65 games for the Bulldogs, scored 10 goals and added 15 assists.
Suzuki also excelled off the field. He was the recipient of the Yale Athletic Department's 2000 Thomas W. Ford Community Outreach Award and participated in the NCAA Foundation Leadership Conference in 1999. In addition, he was a two-time Academic All-Ivy selection.
Suzuki served as a volunteer assistant coach under head coach Brian Tompkins in 2001, and also has coaching experience with the San Diego Soccer Club Pegasus and with PQ Premier.
He earned an MBA from UCLA's Anderson School of Management in 2006.
"Hiro was a fantastic player and leader during his time at Yale and brings outstanding creativity and charisma both on and off the field," head coach Brian Tompkins said. "He is one of the best soccer-thinkers that I have coached in my time at Yale and brings a tremendous amount of first-hand experience to the playing and academic environments. His affable personality, drive and enthusiasm are infectious."
