This story (warning: traumatic birth story) really put a lump in my throat and a rage in my morning. If you haven't heard, the CEO of AOL justified cutting employee benefits based on two "distressed babies" that put too much of a burden on their healthcare plan, basically. He says he was just using that as an example but that sounds to me like a big old "I'm sorry you did not listen to me correctly and now you're mad."
Ok, on the face of this - there is a lot to be said about the burdens of the cost of healthcare on companies - it's real. I am no expert - either - so I don't really understand how the health insurance company, covering what it is supposed to and what it has agreed to, has caused AOL to need to cut it out. Does the premium for all employees go up because of this? I don't get it.
The author of the article goes into much detail about what made her baby "distressed" and how there were no signs of problems during the pregnancy, so there was no chance to mitigate damage. More heartbreakingly, the author details what it felt like for her family to be ostracized - blamed - for her baby's condition, and subsequently the cut in benefits to AOL employees.
I take issue with how he reduced my daughter to a "distressed baby" who cost the company too much money. How he blamed the saving of her life for his decision to scale back employee benefits. How he exposed the most searing experience of our lives, one that my husband and I still struggle to discuss with anyone but each other, for no other purpose than an absurd justification for corporate cost-cutting.
The baby is (or seems to be) ok now, but the author writes how her birth was such an unhappy event, that she and her husband have difficulty taking any moment for granted, and not being scarred by the aura of death that overshadowed the beginning of her life. Then THIS. Because healthcare is always about numbers, and never about health or care.
It can be a struggle to set aside my lingering trauma amid the daily realities of coordinating her care to simply celebrate the fierce, beautiful girl who has completed our family.
All of which made the implication from Armstrong that the saving of her life was an extravagant option, an oversize burden on the company bottom line, feel like a cruel violation, no less brutal for the ludicrousness of his contention.
It is just such a BLATANT disregard for human life that Tim Armstrong made these comments - but he is not the only one to think this way. It's one thing to consider the bottom line, and to sadly tell your employees their benefits are being cut. But this - this is about how a couple of babies screwed the rest of the employees over. This attitude is about how no one is entitled to the healthcare with which they are compensated at work.
This is what health insurance is for. To pay for health. It's not a tax that you pay that goes nowhere visible. It is something the AOL employees are entitled to, because it is part of their salary. If AOL is being somehow held accountable for the things that the insurance agreed to cover, that seems illegal, right? Or it should be. And the callous insensitivity on the matter, displayed by the CEO, is just the way so many Americans look at healthcare.
I feel that the healthcare debate, on the conservative side, always separates the fact that healthcare is needed for humans to live - and reduces everything to dollars. It is a problem, that companies may not be able to afford benefits. But the solution has been for society, on the whole, to just decide to disregard that families need the benefits to survive - literally.
ETA: I should mention that Tim Armstrong has decided not to cut benefits after all.
ETA 2: Uhm, MyOcean just alerted me that this is the second-highest paid employee at AOL.
ETA 3: The "digital prophet" label is a fancy name for a marketing director at AOL. It's been pointed out that the article linked is very shaming about his appearance and so I want to make it clear that I didn't thoroughly figure out WTF a digital prophet is supposed to be - and that I don't want anyone to think this link was shared because he looks...different. Either way, the guy makes almost as much as the CEO yet sick babies aren't worth a shit.

Second Stress Fracture in a Year?
However, a three mile test run the next day helped verify a pain right on the bone (top of the foot, metatarsal) that grew increasingly painful as the run went on. I was glad that Dr. Jamie had worked on the foot the day prior, as I think the other aches were making it hard to pinpoint the source of the pain. But with those out of the way, it made it pretty apparent it's a stress fracture.
So, what next? Well, for now, I don't plan on getting x-rays. What's the point? This NY Times article underscores it pretty nicely. A doctor who is a runner is quoted in the article as saying the following in regards to seeing a doctor for certain running injuries:
"I think most folks should not go, because most general doctors don't know a lot about running injuries," he said, adding, "Most docs, often even the good sports docs, then will just tell you to stop running anyway, so the first thing is to stop running yourself."
I don't feel like going through the charade of paying a $25 copay to allow my primary care doctor to lecture me on running too much, then paying an additional $25 for x-rays, and then fighting with him to get a referral to a sports doc to get another opinion (two previous running injuries were misdiagnosed by the primary care doc). Then, pay another $25 copay to the sports doc on top of dealing with all of the hassle.
No thanks. I can think of better ways to spend $50-$75, and better ways to spend my time. And sure, I could get another primary care doc, but I also don't feel like dealing with the annoyance of researching a decent one and taking a chance that another will be like the one I have now.
So to go through all of that knowing they will simply say to rest it 6-8 weeks just doesn't seem worthwhile when I plan on taking that course of action anyway. I'm also wearing my walking boot again, and plan on doing so for a week or two to help keep pressure off of my foot.
I'm also finally realizing that I get hurt too often and need to spread my training around even more. Mountain biking is likely going to be my next option. So I'll be fine, and something like this isn't going to stop me. I might cut back on my running mileage for a while in favor of other activities, but by hopefully spreading things around some, everything will work out great in the long term.

J-Rock - well said. You know what you need to do and time will heal the sfx. As the queen of stress fractures (not a title I'm proud of) I have been down this road several times and understand what you're going through. Biking has saved me mentally and physically when I can't run - and mountain biking sounds like the perfect choice for you. Pete has tons of routes and is always looking for a partner if you're interested. It's also a great way to find new trails for running. Hang in there!
- Thomas said...
Now that really sucks. I'm sorry, man.
In know the mere question is heretical these days, but have you considered the possibility that all those barefoot/VFF miles might be the cause for your injuries?
- Jamie said...
Valid question Thomas, and the answer is yes. There is a "however" though. This stress fracture was more of a blunt force injury from stepping on baseball sized rock twice (full force each time) on a well packed converted rail-to-trail. Not from wear and tear from barefoot/VFF running. So, once I'm back to running, I'll still be barefoot/VFF running but more careful on what surfaces I do it on.
- bricey said...
Tough break. I hope it doesn't take too long to heal. Rest sounds like a sensible course of action. I agree with you on medics ... It's important to talk to a doc who understands where you're coming from!
- Sparkplug said...
Bummer Jamie! But it sounds like you have the right attitude about it, and you will heal up fast!
- Damon said...
Sorry to hear it Jamie. My last year has been filled with too many injuries, some very minor and one pretty serious. I feel your pain.
- Love2Run said...
Yowzers, you need to trade in your bad luck for some good luck soon! Hope the cross training keeps the edge off while you heal. Take care!

Telemark is a county in East Norway.
In the east of the county is the area called Grenland, which includes Skien, Porsgrunn and Langesund.
heavy water sabotage mission during WWII
Other destinations[edit]
Norwegian is the main language (but beware of difficult dialects). Almost all Norwegians speak English well enough to help tourists with anything.
Get in[edit]
By air: Telemark is served by two airports with scheduled flights, Skien Geiteryggen Airport and Notodden Airport.
Nearby Sandefjord Airport Torp [1] has direct flights from many European cities. From there, take a bus to Porsgrunn, Skien or Bø. You can also take the gratis shuttle bus to the nearby train stop ("Torp Sandefjord Lufthavn") [2] and then the train (to Porsgrunn or Skien), but this option is mostly used by people taking the train elsewhere.
By car: E18, the main road of Eastern and Southern Norway, passes through Telemark in the districts of Porsgrunn, Bamble and Kragerø. There are several tollbooth stations, but they are of course not that expensive if you can afford renting a car and paying for fuel. E18 between Gardermoen is one of the best roads by Norwegian standards. Local roads and even other E18 stretches can require both patience and experience. During the worst summer traffic, you will need 5+ hours for a 200km trip on E18.
By bus: Lots of buses from Oslo, around 270NOK/person.
By train: From Gardermoen Airport via Oslo, STADLER Flirt train sets (new 2012) go along the coast to Porsgrunn (about 2h35m) and Skien (2h45m). Tickets are 300+NOK, 199NOK ("Minipris") if ordering a few days ahead. Another, newish train set (from early '00s) goes to Nordagutu, Bø (2h7m from Oslo), Lunde and Drangedal. Do not put wet luggage on the overhead, as the water will drip down on you.
Get around[edit]
By city bus Metrobuss [3] covers the urban parts of Skien, Porsgrunn and Bamble. A single adult ticket is 30NOK.
See[edit][add listing]
Ibsen's Venstøp, Skien - The place where the world-famous writer Henrik Ibsen was born.

Stay safe[edit]
Telemark is considered extremely safe. There is really no need to avoid any places at any time, although you should probably not provoke drunk people in taxi lines around 2AM-3AM.

"Build Google Medicine. The benefits to human health would be immeasurable."
British Medical Journal Editorial by Dean Giustini, BMJ 2005;331:1487-1488 (24 December)
The article is very interesting and I would tell you, just like Instapundit, "read the whole thing", not just the title.
User-created content
Our information world is changing and becoming broader every day. Anybody who has knowledge and interesting ideas can contribute. The Internet was created with the idea for free contribution but that was not easy to implement until the blogging tools circumvented the need to know HTML to make a professional website.
Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the internet, explains that the very first browser was able to do the same thing that blogs and wiki enable you to do now - to make and save changes on the web pages.
It takes 5 minutes to make a website on Google's Blogger.com and it is easier than email. All this information created by millions of users every day is easily searchable and updated at the same moment as you are reading this. The world never sleeps.
When I made my first website for the Case Western Reserve University (St. Vincent/St. Lukes) residency program, the motto was "for the residents, by the residents". The users (medical residents) loved the fact that they can request a feature (e.g. "how can I recognize the correct position of endotracheal tube on CXR?") and see it posted on their own website the same afternoon.
Two years and nine websites later, I can tell you from my limited experience: user-created content has a future. If you cannot find the information you are looking for, may be it is time to write it yourself. Research the question in Pubmed and the major journals, consult colleagues and write it down on your website. Somebody may find it useful.
Search is the king
Google often beats UpToDate in finding what you are looking for. UpToDate information is far more reliable but Google is much broader.
Just see who brings visitors to BMJ website, Google leads it closest competitor by a multiple of nine (450,000 as compared to 50,000). Many young people believe that "if something is not on Google, it just doesn't exist." User-created content often tops the search results and most people never look beyond the first ten results on the page. There are dangers of seeing the world through "Google eyes" but this is a topic for another discussion.
Our patients use the search engines all the time, we, as physicians, cannot lag far behind. Of course, there are credibility problems to be solved but may be one day Google (or somebody else) will really be able to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible."
My small contribution
I feel humbled to be cited twice in the BMJ editorial in the same group with the New England Journal of Medicine, Canadian Medical Association Journal and Academic Medicine.
Our projects include:
- Clinical Cases and Images. A Case-Based Curriculum of Clinical Medicine. This project is supported by physicians in the Section of Hospital Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic and the Case Western Reserve University (St. Vincent/St. Lukes) Internal Medicine Residency Program. ClinicalCases.org was featured in BMJ.
- Procedure Skills collects slide shows with explanations of some common medical procedures like central line placement and thoracentesis. The procedure articles are referenced in Wikipedia, the world's largest online encyclopedia.
- Clinical Cases and Images - Blog. Casesblog features daily news, comments and ideas which have not reached the stage of completeness to be published on ClinicalCases.org.
- Clinical Notes collects information which is not related to clinical cases but represents practice tools, for example, Sample Admission Notes for the Most Common Conditions and A Systematic Approach to Reading an EKG.
- Computers and Internet is a website that collects the information technology stories from Casesblog relevant to medical practice.
- Hit the Road - See America and the World features photos and descriptions of interesting places to visit around Cleveland, Ohio and around the world.

Further thoughts around "Google Medicine". Happy holidays, DeanReplyDelete
Thanks for the link.ReplyDelete
Some interesting thoughts from Google Medicine in Wikipedia:
"A considerable amount of usable EBM content that is absent from Google is located behind gated, proprietary databases in expensive tools like ACP Pier, Best Evidence, DynaMed and UpToDate.
What should not be allowed to continue is increased use of Google's search tools while the best content is produced by physicians only to be later locked down by multinational publishers. Free this medical information and put the evidence out in the public sphere for all to see."

Gills hammer Burton to stay top
League leaders Gillingham saw off in-form Burton 4-1 on Saturday to maintain their three-point advantage at the top of League Two.
Last Updated: 20/10/12 7:25pm
League leaders Gillingham saw off in-form Burton 4-1 on Saturday to maintain their three-point advantage at the top of League Two.
Defenders Tom Flanagan and Matt Fish grabbed their first goals of the season to put the Gills in control of the game at half-time.
Zander Diamond pulled one back for the visitors, who arrived at Priestfield on an eight-game unbeaten run, before Myles Weston and Joe Martin struck in quick succession to put the result beyond doubt.
Gills were fastest out of the traps and went ahead when Flanagan capitalised on Chris Whelpdale's quick throw-in to fire home from close range after 22 minutes.
Weston and Charlie Allen came close to doubling the host's advantage before right-back Fish did so from 25 yards after Burton failed to clear their lines.
Diamond headed against a post at the start of the second half but he gave the visitors hope when he capitalised on some sloppy Gillingham defending to slot home after 54 minutes. However, any chance of a comeback was put to bed five minutes later when Weston latched onto Danny Kedwell's knock down before firing past Stuart Tomlinson. Martin then sealed all three points for the hosts with a spectacular half volley.

Roxio has released their Creator 2011 software suite claiming it to be the world's first digital media suite to offer a comprehensive feature set for capturing, editing, creating, and sharing personal 3D photos and 3D videos. Of course the software is targeted to non-professional users that just want to quickly and easily create 3D videos from existing 2D or new 3D photos and videos they've shot themselves and is not intended as a replacement for a full-fledged professional solution for working with 3D content.
Roxio Creator 2011 makes it easier for enthusiasts and beginners to immediately add a dynamic new dimension to family memories by allowing users to convert standard 2D digital photos and home videos into 3D content (2D to 3D conversion for photos and video), so they may generate immersive, personalized 3D multimedia productions from their existing 2D digital media libraries. Roxio Creator 2011 also supports emerging 3D formats such as side-by-side, over-under, anaglyph, and dual stream as well as 3D-enabled capture devices, computers, HDTVs, and accessories. Consumers may import stereoscopic content directly from 3D cameras such as the Fuji W1 and other capture devices and then create personalized 3D productions complete with transitions, titles, effects, and a sound track that can be viewed on the PC, enjoyed on a 3D-enabled HDTV, or posted and shared via YouTube.
You will be able to begin experimenting with the 3D capabilities of the software out-of-the-box by even using using your existing 2D content, standard computer system and monitor, along with the anaglyph red-cyan glasses that included in the retail package. Roxio has also collaborated with leading technology firms driving 3D such as ATI to offer ATI Stream support, NVIDIA for CUDA GPU acceleration, and RealD and others in order to ensure Creator 2011 is fully compatible with the latest 3D-enabled cameras, systems, displays, technologies, and formats, as well as a full-range of accessories including 3D glasses. And for those seeking more information about working with 3D content the built-in Learning Center includes dozens of video tutorials and step-by-step instructional guides, including detailed information on how to get the best results when working with 3D content.
Unfortunately at this point you will not be able to use 3D Vision to preview the video in stereo 3D format while editing, but you can do pretty well using the anaglyph format and then just export the finished video file into a suitable format that you can open with the 3D Vision Video player for example Side by Side and you can enjoy it with best quality. The 3D video input formats supported ate: over/under full and half height, side-by-side full and half width, anaglyph red/cyan, RealD and Fuji FinePix REAL 3D's dual stream and the 3D video output formats supported are: anaglyph red/cyan, side-by-side and full and half-width, over/under full and half height and RealD. You will also be able to export the 3D videos to a some sort of 3D-capable optical discs, but as mentioned already no Blu-ray 3D authoring is available even in the Pro version.
Roxio Creator 2011 is already available as a digital download for $99.99 USD and will be introduced early next month in retail stores worldwide. Roxio Creator 2011 Pro, priced at $129.99 USD, also includes the Blu-ray Disc authoring capability plus some additional applications (not Blu-ray 3D however) on top of the features available in the standard version of the software. Now when is that Blu-ray 3D video player coming out…?

"The First Salmon Rite at Wehlkwew" (1951)
Writing system: default | hyphens | linguistic
Display style: paragraph | sentence | look-up
Text identifier: LA16-8
Speaker: Florence Shaughnessy
Primary documentation: R. H. Robins
Edition: R. H. Robins, The Yurok Language (1958), pp. 171-183
Note: This is Mrs. Shaughnessy's Yurok-language rendering of an English-language narrative by Robert Spott published in Robert Spott and A. L. Kroeber, Yurok Narratives (1942), pp. 171-178. "I", "mine", etc. therefore refer to Robert Spott.
Wek kwelekw chpeyue'r wee' mehl so'n kee hehlkue 'we-neeekue' nepuy.
This is the story of the taking of salmon ashore.
Wee'eeet hewonee sonkee' 'esee nepue' k'ee nepuy.
This was done before any salmon is eaten.
Nek 'ne-psech wo'oot nuemee 'we-heenoy ko nergery kue wee'eeet 'we-sook.
My father was the last person to assist at this kind of rite.
Wo'oot weesh nep' kue nepuy.
He ate the salmon.
Kue wee' hegohkuemeen kwelekw Charleee Weelleeams 'we-chekoh weesh 'ue-peechowos
Pewolew 'o meweemor weet soo neke'y.
The man who performed the ceremony was the grandfather of Charlie Williams' mother, and was called the Old Man of Pewolew.
Na'a'lee 'o'lehl 'o Wehlkwew tue' weet 'o megetohl kue roowo's.
There were two houses at Wehlkwew and the pipes were kept in them.
Kue 'we-nahkseyhl kue ko 'w-ohkue' kue hehlkue 'we-neeekue' wo'oot.
The third person present when the salmon taking ceremony was performed was the girl.
Tue' wee' kue meweemor 'we-romech, wo'oot nonee pe'l 'o kue 'ne-psech.
She was the old man's niece, and was older than my father.
Tue' neemok'ws 'we-nos Pewolew 'ue-Me'y soo wegenee'.
She was unmarried and was called the Daughter of Pewolew.
Kue roowo's weet soo wegenoyhl Pewolew 'o Roowo's.
The pipes were called the Pipes of Pewolew.
Nek soosek' 'n-esek' kwelekw weet mehl hee' Pewolew 'ohlkuemee kue roowo's pe'wol
mehl hohkue'.
I think it was called Pewolew because each pipe was made of soapstone (pe'wol).
Negee'eeyehl tue' wee'eeet mehl hee' 'wahpemew.
There were two of them, and so each was called the mate of the other.
'O'lehl 'o lehlkelee' tue' kerterkseenonee ha'aag weektue' 'oo'.
Each was buried in one of the houses; there was a stone (box) with a lid inside.
Neemee komchuemek' 'n-esek' kwelekw muehlcho' kue 'ue-wen muehlcho' kue pegerk k'ee
roowo's mehl ho gohkue' k'ee meskwoh.
I do not know whether it was with the female or the male pipe that the medicine was made.
Kwelekw kue weesh megetohl nuemee poyweson 'o kue 'o'lehl.
The man who kept the pipes was the head of the house.
Kolchee kyah 'o guenkekso' wo'eeks 'o lehlke'n 'wo'hlp'e'y.
Every month he opened the box and scattered angelica root inside.
Hewon 'we-newoyhl 'woogey negee'eehl chaahl 'we-laaye'mek' 'o ko tye'wolee'
koleen kue 'o'lehl kue 'o megetohlkwonee kue roowo's, na'amee tmohkelee' k'ee
When white men were first seen there were two of them walking along the sands, and at that time one of the houses was burnt down where the pipes were kept, and one pipe was broken in two places.
Kue meweemor kue wee' megetohlkwomeen kwelekw nek soo 'we-too'mar muehlcho'
'ue-peechowos wee' kue meskwoh hegoh kue nek 'ne-psech ho nergerykermeen.
The old man who looked after the pipes was a connection or perhaps the grandfather of the man who made the medicine and whom my father helped.
Hlmeyorkwo'm 'w-esek' kwelekw muehlcho' now sootok'w kue roowo's 'ohlkuemee keech
teekwo'n kue 'ue-'wahpemew.
He was afraid that the other pipe might go away because its mate had been broken.
Weeshtue' mehl hohkue'm woogeen roowo's nuemee 'we-son kue teekwonee, 'oteesh
So he made another pipe just like the one that was broken; it was a foot long.
'Enuemee wee' 'we-son tue' na'amee terrlue'l 'o 'we-luehl mee' kee soo komchue'm
'w-esek' wee'eeet kue ho goh.
It was just like the other, but he made two ridges round its mouth so that he should know that this was the one that he had made.
Heekon kwelekw neemee wee' mehl ho regoowo's 'oohl.
In former times no one used pipes like this for smoking.
Kue keech 'o nuue'monee 'woogey keet 'emehl meguehlkochehl tue' neemee weesh wo skewok
wee' 'we-sook kue nek 'ne-psech.
But after the arrival of white men the Indians began to sell them, though my father never liked that sort of thing.
K'ee cherwerseek' hegor wee'eeet wee' 'o we' hewon 'o rohsee' k'ee nepe'woo.
It was in the seventh month that the salmon was first speared there.
Neemee ho negepue' nepuy 'o puelekw weet 'ue-weno'omehl kohchewech noohl ho k'ee
cherwerseek' 'w-e'gor, kwelekw hegee' mocho 'oohl weesh kee nep' k'ee nepuy kwelekw
kue 'ue-meworoyek' kue 'ue-pekoyek.
During the season from the first to the seventh month salmon was not eaten at the mouth of the river, and it was said that if anyone did eat it his blood would flow away.
K'ee nuemee muueweemor 'emsee pegerey wo'hl tue' chpee weesh kee nepee'mehl, kwelekw
nepuy wee chpee mehl so'n kahkah ke'ween keges 'emsee kwo'ro'r kwelekw k'ee kwen
kee nepue'.
Only very old men and very old women could eat salmon then; but this only concerned salmon; and sturgeon, eels, surf fish, and candlefish could be eaten all the time.
Noohl Tmery 'We-Roy ho reeegor tue' wee'eeet noohl 'o gee' Pewolew.
Waves came up as far as Cannery Creek, and this was then called Pewolew.
Tmery 'We-Roy kwelekw kue 'woogey soo hegonee Requea 'emsee kue 'oohl soo neke'y

Cannery Creek is the creek between the place white men call Requa and the place the Indians call Rek'woy.
Mocho Tmery 'We-Roy hehlkue 'o sootok'w nepuy kwelekw ko' nepue' k'ee kwen cho

If a salmon came ashore at Cannery Creek people could eat whichever part faced away from the water, and this alone was eaten, the half that was toward the water was not eaten.
Mosee 'w-egoyhl k'ee Rek'woy 'emsee Wehlkwew nee 'oole'monee keemee nepee'mehl
nepuy; kwelekw kue puelekw wee' chpee 'o kwahhley.
It was not meant that the inhabitants of Requa and Wehlkwew should not eat salmon; it was only forbidden at the mouth of the river.
Kue Tmery 'We-Roy 'we-heepech kwelekw nee kohchewee' noohl keekee chue wee 'o
What was caught upstream from Cannery Creek everyone could eat.
Kohtoh hegor neema tmoh noohl poy me hee' kue 'ne-psech, Kwelekw

A month and a half in advance my father was told, You are wanted to help in the taking ashore of the first salmon to run.
Hewonee 'o ge's, paas wo hegok'w, kwelekw 'eekee chue hehl, Cho' nue
At first he thought, No, he was not going, but everyone said, Go and perform it there.
Neekee kue weet 'o no'ohl 'emkee 'w-ohkepek', mos weeshtue' noo nep' kue maageen
So from then on at that time he went into training, and did not eat what other people ate.
Neemuech 'ok'ws 'w-rkwterks 'eeko'hl 'ue-wesepek' keneemee chee rekwoh pa'ah
'ohlkuemee kue 'ue-kegoh chpee rekwoh.
He had his own drinking basket, and was constantly cleansing himself, and did not even drink water, as he drank only his own soup.
Nepuy, kem hee', Kowecho nepe'm.
He was also told, Do not eat salmon.
Koypoh 'emsee kee 'o chme'y 'o nerrger's.
In the morning and evening he gathered sweathouse wood.
Hewon ko chpega'ro'y kue meweemor ho kue 'we-romech 'w-egolek', To's nee

First the old man questioned his niece and said, Is there anything in which you are sexually unclean?
'O ga'm Paa', noohl 'o gee', Ke'l kee nergerykerr'm; ke'l
kee peme'm k'ee hewon koh k'ee nepuy.
She said No, and then he said, You will help; you will cook the first salmon that we catch.
Kue roowo's megetohl wo'oot kochpok's 'w-esek' wek kee cho rohsee' kue
The keeper of the pipes thought it over and decided that the salmon should be speared like this.
Noohl weeshtue' 'o sergerrhl hohkuem weektue' 'we-legehl noohl 'o tegerue'm kue
And then he regularly made tobacco, and scattered it inside the box, and spoke to the pipes.
'O gegoyhl kue roowo's, Neemee chpaa ko' nepee'mo'w nepuy,
meweeshtue' 'wo-'ohpelehl kue nergery 'ue-knerperyerk.
They were told, Soon you will eat salmon, because they were given what was left over by the assistant.
Cherwerseek' koma choomoyhl noohl 'o gee', Cho wohpeye'm, kue nek

Seven days before my father was told, Cross over to Wehlkwew.
Merueh chego'onep puuek 'ue-'wers weeshtue' 'ue-ka'.
The hide of a five-point deer was his blanket.
'O gee', Wee' kee chpee negeme'm 'emsee k'e-roowo's 'emsee
He was told, You will carry only this, and your pipe and your tobacco.
'O gee' cho', Knokseeme'm kue 'woogey son k'e-slekw; kolchee wohlkechee'

He was told, Leave behind your white man's type of clothes; every morning you will gather sweathouse wood, and you will only eat the old man's niece's cooking, because she too was always in training and she alone cooked for the two men.
Chmeyonen 'o gego'l so heekoh kue 'ne-psech.
In the evening my father went across.
'O ga'm kue meweemor, Cho' nuemee chpe'royo'm cho 'enuemee wee' sonowo'm k'ee

The old man said, Listen carefully, and do just as I am going to tell you.
Noohl 'o gee', Kerrcherh 'O Legok'w cho 'o nerrgerse'm, mee' weet 'o

Then he was told, Go and gather sweathouse wood at Krrchrh 'O Legok'w, because small fir trees grew there, but other people did not pick their branches and did not use them for making fire in the sweathouse.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Wee'eeet 'ee 'ne-mehl megelok', mee' ke'l kee

Then the old man said, This is why I am coming with you, so that you will know how to do everything properly.
Kohchew koma choomoyhl kue kee 'we-rohseyek' kue nepuy 'o ga'm kue meweemor,
'O we'yk'oh cho ko tenpeyo'm 'ohlkuemee 'owook kwelekw kee chpee

It was six days before the spearing of the salmon when the old man said, Eat plenty today, because tomorrow you will only eat once; it will be evening before you have anything to eat.
Tue' kue 'ne-psech 'eemee nuemee wo tenpe'y kue wee'eeet 'we-chmeyonen.
But my father did not eat much that evening.
Kue keech 'o go'ohkohleen noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Cho now le'mo'w 'o

And when it became dark the old man said, Leave the sweathouse all of you; we two will be here alone.
Kue wee 'o negookchenohl 'emkee weeshtue' le'mehl kue Shchekwehl 'O Chaahl 'o tek
'er'gerrk 'o Wehlkwew.
Those who usually sweated there then went to the sweathouse at Schekwehl 'O Chaahl in Wehlkwew.
Kue 'we-nahksemoyhl kue meweemor 'emsee 'ne-psech noohl 'o gohkuemehl 'we-laayekw

On the third day the old man and my father built a path down to the water's edge at the river mouth.
Neekee chue now lehlkenee', mos taa ko'l kem ko 'oyhl pecheykwsehl kue nuemee
'we-chey kem now lehlkenee'.
Everything was cleared away, and nothing lay on the path; even the smallest bit of gravel was cleared away.
Na'mee mechkah toomok's kue laayekw tue' mos cheetaa ko'l sook kee nee 'oyhl.
The path was two feet wide and nothing at all lay on it.
'Enuemee wo'n ho kue kohchew 'we-choomoyhl 'o weykohl; noohl kue meweemor 'o
'ekso' kue keech laayekw.
They were finishing the path right up to the sixth day, and then the old man closed the path.
Kwelekw 'o tene'm 'oohl 'o Wehlwkew heekoch so Rek'woy so wohpeye'm, 'ohlkuemee

And then there were a lot of people who crossed over from Wehlkwew to Requa, as it was easier there for them to get their wood and their water now that the path was finished and it was difficult for wood to be fetched at the river mouth.
Kue ho meerwernernee wee'eeet noohl lekwseg.
The path ran down to the high water line there.
Kue pegerk mehl Wehlkwew kue skewoksemeen kue 'we-na'awok' hasee heenoyks laa'y

A man from Wehlkwew who wanted to catch surf fish went inside of the path and then into the water at the high water line; so strictly was it intended that one should not pass over where the path had been made, because it was forbidden for anyone to walk on the path.
Wenchokws kwelekw neemee nahchelehl puelekw ko 'o 'w-oole'mek'.
Women were not allowed to go down to the river mouth.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor ho kue 'ne-psech, Nek kee muech rohseemek' kue

Then the old man said to my father, I shall spear the salmon myself, but you will carry it to the house.
Wee'eeet 'ee now mehl ho lehlkenee' cheeeko'l sook, mee' kwahhley wonue
k'e-naametek' ko'l sook.
This is why everything was cleared away, because you are not allowed to tread on anything.
Cho 'enuemee neee'nowo'm kue teekwohl; wee'eeet kee no'ohl noohl negeme'm kue

Look carefully for where there is a low gap; that far you will carry the salmon on your right shoulder.
Mocho keech 'o newoo'm kue teekwohl, noohl 'emkee k'e-kesomewet neke'm kue
nepuy, kem kee neekee k'e-soo negemek' neemoksue kem won 'o ko nekue'.
When you see the low gap, then you put it on your left shoulder, and from then on you carry it like that and it must not be put in any other position.
Kue kohchew 'we-choomoyhl, 'o 'owook kee ko rohsee' kue nepuy 'eme ga'm kue
meweemor, Cho now le'mo'w 'o kue nuemee 'o'lehl; kwelekw nekah keech chpee

On the sixth day and the next day the salmon would be speared, the old man said, Go away all of you from the main house; we three shall be here alone.
Kue weet 'o 'w-o'oh 'eemee 'uema chkee'm kue 'ne-psech 'emsee kue meweemor, neekee wook

That night the old man and my father did not sleep, and the old man spoke to his pipe until morning.
Wooyhl noohl ho'op' mehl 'wo'hlp'e'y tue' weeshtue' keech nee soo swoo'melehl kue
'er'gerrch kem neekee so'n.
All night he made a fire with angelica root and so they both smelt of it and the sweathouse did as well.
Noohl weeshtue' 'o ga'm, Kos'ela tenowonee cheeek, keekee skue'y soo hoole'm
'oohl, nerhpery tue' kee tege'n ko teno' k'ee kwen cho kee nepue', 'emsee paas
Then he said, May there be lots of money, and the people will fare well, and may there be lots of berries and lots of all that can be eaten, and may there be no sickness among the people!
Kue woneek 'we-rohpek' kue 'wo'hlp'e'y 'ue-meraa 'o ga'm kue meweemor,

As the smoke from the angelica root drifted upward the old man said, This is the breath of the pipe; it will spread everywhere and there will be no sickness from here to the heavens.
Kue weet 'ue-koypoh wonews 'o sootok'w nue 'we-nerrgersek', noohl 'ap
In the morning he went up to gather sweathouse wood, and then they made a fire.
Kue keech 'ue-mechewolo' noohl lekwseesh 'o le'mehl 'emkee weeshtue' 'ee kmoyhl, keet

When it had burned down they went outside and lay down, and began to cool off, and then they went to bathe.
Kue'y 'we-no'ohl Rek'woy wonew 'ela neee'n 'o newee' kwelekw keech
Later they looked over to Requa and saw that the sun was shining.
Che'mekw keech 'o huemonepehl, noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Nek kue hlook'

They warmed themselves a little, and then the old man said, I will fetch the spear; now we are ready to go; I will bring your blanket.
'O na'a'n hlo'm, tue' smechoy weesh 'ue-mehl hlook'.
Then he brought two, and deerskins were what he brought.
Noohl 'r'gerrch 'o le'mehl.
And then they went into the sweathouse.
Noohl 'o ga'm, To's keech 'ee 'we-son kee 'n-egoo'loh?
Then he said, Is all ready for us to go?
Hela' we'y k'e-smechoy; k'e-to' kee laa'y.
Here is your deerskin; it must pass around your hips.
Wee' kee 'oyhl kue k'e-srahkwoh; k'e-roowo's cho chpee negeme'm.
Your loincloth will stay here; just carry your pipe.
Kue meweemor nege'm wohlee weyew keyom; tue' weektue' 'ok'w kue 'we-roowo's 'emsee
The old man took a newly made dipper basket; in it were his pipe and tobacco.
Noohl 'o ko chuerp'ery, noohl nepe'weeshneg 'ue-'wers 'emehl ma'epoyew kue
Then he combed his hair, and then his hair was tied up with an otterskin.
Nek kee negemek' kue 'ne-keyom noohl ko myootek' 'ne-ka'.
He said, I will take my basket and put on my blanket.
Ke'l cho kenuemee sonowo'm, 'emkee kwelekw kue'y 'ue-pahtuen kue k'e-smechoy

You do just as I do, and then the neck of your deerskin will be on your right, and its tail will be on your left, and your pipe will be right over your belly.
K'ee nuemee 'o'lehl kue we'yon kem 'ee nuemee sho'n; nows nek' 'wr-skery woogeen

In the main house the girl was doing the same; she took off her dress and put on another newly finished dress.
Perey wee 'ok'w tue wo'oot nuemee ha'm, Wek kee shonowo'm.
There was an old woman there and she said, This is what you will do.
Noohl weeshtue' 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Cho nuemee chpe'royo'm k'ee nekee'
Then the old man said, Listen carefully to what I say.
Heenoy cho 'orogoo'm.
Follow behind me.
Kwelekw wee' keech 'oyhl k'ee ma'ahskehl.
The spear is lying here.
Kue k'e-nekomewet cho 'oloneme'm, cho skue'y soo 'ekoneme'm 'ohlkuemee

Carry it in your right hand, and get a good hold on it because you will not carry it in any other position.
Keekee nuue'moh wee' kee soo 'ekoneme'm.
You will carry it like this until we arrive.
Noohl 'o ko hlo'm kue 'ue-keyom 'enuemee poy wenok'w.
Then he took his basket and went ahead.
Noohl kue 'ne-psech woneeks 'o so'n ma'ahskehl, noohl puelekws 'o newo'm kyue'

Then my father picked up the spear, and he saw people standing at the mouth of the river fishing.
To' neemee heeme'mehl, mos cheetaa koleen chweenkep'.
They did not hurry, and neither spoke a word.
Kue keech 'o nuue'mehl ho puelekw, noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor ho kue 'ne-psech,
Cho nuemee skue'y soo skelee neke'm; k'ee ma'ah pechue kee
When they arrived at the river mouth, the old man said to my father, Put the spear down carefully; it must point upstream.
Noohl kue laayekw 'we-rewon 'o chyuuek'we'n kue meweemor, noohl 'o ga'm,
'Ne-kesomewet cho 'o chekcheye'm.
Then the old man sat down at the end of the path, and said, Sit down on my left.
Noohl wee 'o wenok'w pegerk kue meweemor 'we-heenoy 'ema 'oolo' noohl 'o ga'm,
Nekah kwelekw kahkah 'emsee ke'ween kegoh.
Then a man came and stood behind the old man and said, We are catching sturgeon and eels.
Noohl weet 'o soo chween meweemor 'w-egolek', Koweecho noo kegohchewo'w
kahkah; ke'ween cho' chpee kegoh, cho' neee'nowo'w mehl nepuy.
Then the old man said, Stop catching sturgeon; catch eels only, and watch for salmon.
Hewon 'we-newoyk' nepuy cho 'o hegoose'm, noohl nek kue 'o
When a salmon is first seen shout, and I will come and spear it.
Cho 'eekee chue weyko'w ko'l k'e-so'nk'enuue'mo'w noohl cho 'eekee chue
Then you must all finish fishing and all go home.
Cho puelekw neekee chue ho 'r'gerp k'-egolek' wek keech so'n.
Go and tell them all at the river mouth that this is happening.
Noohl 'o kwomhlecho'l kue pegerk weesh 'ee nuemee so'n.
Then the man went back and did as he was bidden.
Maageen 'eekee 'ue-wey, maageen kyue' 'ee 'o goole'm.
Some of them stopped fishing at once, and others stayed around there.
Mos chpegaak no'ohl kem 'o chweenkep' kue meweemor.
Soon afterward the old man spoke again.
Noohl 'o ko ska'ehlke'n hohkuem so pueleek 'emsee so hehlkew 'emsee so wohpewk
'emsee so perwerh.
Then he scattered tobacco to the north, to the east, to the west, and to the south.
Nuemee kue 'we-rek'woy so neee'nowohl kue weesh 'o 'we-rek'eeen.
They were looking right at the river mouth where they sat.
Keech maa'y chomee's 'we-roo, 'o newee' keech sega'awo'r 'o kue 'o rek'eeen; kwesee

Midday passed, and shadows were seen moving where they sat; it was the eel fishers coming.
Noohl 'o ko'm keech 'w-egoo, Nepe'woo!
Then they heard people shouting, First salmon!
Noohl 'o mene'mehl so heer, noohl 'o ko hlo'm kue 'ue-ma'ahskehl kue meweemor
reeek'ew 'eekee laa'y so puelekw.
Then the men went away from the water, and the old man took his spear and went down to the river mouth along the shore.
Tmenomee newee' wee weno'omo'r 'enuemee; skue'y soo neee'no'w kue 'ne-psech.
It was half visible and was coming in; my father watched it intently.
'Enuemee poy weno'omo'r kue nepuy.
The salmon came on forward.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Hl'o'ronep'es! noohl kolo 'eekee mee'

Then the old man said, Stop! and it seemed that it did not move.
Noohl heenoy 'o so na'mee naamet' ho kue 'we-nekomewet noohl 'o ga'm,
Sela ro'onep'es! kem 'o pahchew kue nepuy.
Then he took two steps to his right and said, Run on! and again it moved.
Kem 'o ga'm, Hl'o'ronep'es!
Again he said, Stop!
Merueh chee weesh serrhlerp', tue' kue kem 'w-egolek',
Hl'o'ronep'es! noohl 'o ko hlo'm kue ma'ah 'eekee
He did this five times, and when he said, Stop! he took his spear and grasped it in both hands.
'O na'mee woneek so'n noohl 'o ga'm, Cho hl'o'ronepe'm k'ee kwen cho ko
regaayo'repe'm, k'ee kwen cho 'ohkween m-ekwol cho 'emehl knokseeme'm
He lifted it twice and then said, Stop at each place you pass, and wherever there is a fishing rock leave some of your scales there.
K'ee wek 'we-raayoy 'ue-mer'wermery cho noohl ho noowo'repe'm; cho 'ela
Go right to the head of this river; run on there.
Kue 'ue-wey 'we-chween weet 'o soo newee' kue nepuy kolo neekee ko'see ko'mo'y.
When he finished speaking the salmon seemed to have heard it all.
Noohl 'o menechok'w noohl weeshtue' 'enuemee sho'n kue hegonee Kee
Then it vanished and did just as it had been told You shall do it.
K'ee kwen cho 'o tektonee m-ekwol kem 'emehl knoksee'm 'ue-peesh'on, 'enuemee wo'n

Wherever there was a fishing rock built it left some of its scales, right on until it had no scales left; and then it went on to the head of the river.
Keech k'ee kwen 'o ro'op' kue nepuy.
The salmon went right ahead.
Noohl 'o kwomhlecho'l kue meweemor, skelee 'ap nek' kue 'ue-ma'ahskehl, weeshtue'

Then the old man went back and put down his spear, and sat down where my father was sitting.
'O ga'm, Cho' yokmokee negeee'nowo'm mocho kee hase'm.
He said, Look round about if you feel like it.
Kue so newonee keech chyuuek'we'n kue meweemor neekee 'ue-kwomhle'mek' kue pegerk ko'l
When the old man was seen to be sitting down the men came back to their fishing.
Keech 'o chpaaneek' noohl; weesh 'o rek'eeen, 'o ko'mo'y keech hegoo,
Nepe'woo! mehl pueleek.
It grew late; they were sitting there, and he heard them shouting, First salmon! from the river mouth.
'Ikee chue weesh soo hegoosehl, noohl 'o ko hloohl kue 'ue-ke'ween noohl heenoy 'o
All of them were shouting like this, and then they took their eels and went back.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor ho kue 'ne-psech, Cho kem noohl puelekuek ho
Then the old man said to my father, Look down the river.
Kenuemee wee 'o so'n kue meweemor 'o kue hewonee newonee nepuy kue 'we-newoyk'.
The old man did just as he did with the first salmon to appear when this one appeared.
Merueh chee tergue'm 'o ga'm, Heenoy lenewk'wes! Sela ro'onep'es!
Five times he spoke to it, and said, Drift back! Run on! Stop!
'O ko hlo'm kue 'ue-ma'ahskehl yue's 'o sooto'l kue weno'omo'r kue nepuy.
He took his spear and went over to where the salmon was coming in.
Weesh 'enuemee so'n kue nepuy kue sonoyew.
The salmon did just as it was told.
'O choona'mee kolo 'we-rohseemek', kue merueh 'we-chee woneek soo'n kue
'ue-ma'ahskehl 'eekee 'ue-ma'ahskek'.
After making as if to spear it four times, the fifth time he lifted up his spear and then speared it.
Mos cheetaa wo pahchew, kolo heer nee lenekw.
It made no movement, but seemed to drift to the shore.
Kue so heer sootoh kue meweemor kolo 'eme lekwo'hl 'ue-meykweluue'm 'o Rek'woy, kue

When the old man went away from the water the air seemed full of wailing over at Requa, now that the salmon was caught.
Kue hehlkue keech 'o soononee, noohl nows 'o nek' kue 'ue-ma'ahskehl.
When the salmon had been lifted out of the water, he put down his spear.
Pechue no'moye'we'y kue nepuy.
The salmon lay with its head pointing up the river.
Noohl kue 'ne-psech 'o key 'ap nek' kue 'ue-ma'ah, 'o 'lepoyewt' kue
He put down the spear where my father was sitting, and unbraided his hair.
Kue nepuyohl wonue 'o nekue' kue nepe'weeshneg 'ue-'wers.
The otterskin was put on top of the salmon.
Noohl 'o pegah 'we-tuuek kue nepuy, noohl 'o hlo'm ha'aag 'ue-mohl 'ela
The salmon moved its tail, and he took a stone and hit its head with it.
Kue pa'aahl 'we-lootek' kue ha'aag, wonue 'o legaayo', noohl pechkue 'o so

When he threw the stone into the water, it ricocheted up, turned upstream, and then disappeared.
Hasee perwerw 'o so koo'op' 'o kue nepuy noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor,
Ch'ueme'y 'ne-tewomehl keech 'ne-kohchewochek'.
The old man stood to the south of the salmon and said, I am so glad that I have caught you.
Ke'l kwelekw kee tene'm k'e-nowonemek' nepuy 'o k'ee wek
Many are the salmon you will bring to this river.

Rich and poor will all rejoice at it.

You will see to it that all that grows will grow well; you will see to it that it will all grow well to be eaten by every sort of person.
Kolchee tergerw kem tue' 'o goyhlkep' 'we-tuuek kolo 'we-nooloochek' kue
Every time he spoke its tail wagged as if the salmon were answering.
Noohl now 'o nek' kue nepe'weeshneg 'ue-'wers kue 'ue-keyom weektue' 'o nek'.
Then he put the otterskin away in the basket.
Noohl ska'ehlke'n hohkuem ho puelekuek ho pecheek ho perwer'k'uek 'emsee ho
Then he scattered tobacco to the north, to the east, to the south, and to the west.
Noohl 'o ga'm ho kue 'ne-psech, Cho koo'ope'm neka'ahl
Then he said to my father, Stand up and come to me.
Cho 'rlermerkerhl kue k'e-ka' skelee lekomeyt'es k'e-chewes.
Untie your blanket and lower your hands.
Noohl now 'o nek' kue 'ue-ka' noohl 'o ga'm, Hl'os kue nepuy 'o kue
Then he took his blanket away and said, Pick up the salmon by its tail.
To's keech skue'y soo 'ekoneme'm?
Have you got a good hold of it?
Cho' nuemee chpuerkoo'm woneek k'e-soonek' weet nuemee 'o kwoyteme'l cho
Lift it up very carefully, and carry it like this right on your shoulder.

Hold your wrist with your other hand so that you do not get tired.
Cho k'e-nekomewet so kelomo'ope'm koweecho heenoy so ko neee'nowo'm;

Turn to your right and do not look back; do not look at me, and do not look at things round about.
Mocho weet keech ho neskwechoo'm kue k'e-kesomewet 'o nekom kue k'e-ma'ah

When you come to where you put your spear on your left shoulder when we came down to the river mouth, then throw the fish on to your left shoulder.
Koweecho kwehl ke'yoneme'm!
Do not drop it!

Now run straight on from here at a trot.

When he made his way to Pewolew the people all shouted May there be many salmon in our sea, and many animals on land, and many woodpecker scalps!
K'ee kwen cho skewokseemehl, Kos'ela tenoo kolo 'o luuekwo'hl kue
The air seemed full of their shouting, May there be much of whatever they all wanted.
Kue keech 'o noowo'r ho Pewolew noohl weeshtue' 'o so'n kue keech ho
When he reached Pewolew, he carried out his instructions.
Noohl kue 'ue-kesomewet 'emehl hlohlpep' kue 'o'lepeek 'we-sootok'.
With his left hand he lowered himself into the house.
Keetkwo mee 'ue nohpe'w ho kue nuemee 'oole'mo'w.
He did not yet enter the main part of the house.
Noohl nows 'o loot' kue nepuy.
Then he threw down the salmon.
Wee' no'ok's 'yohlkoych'enee 'lahpsew nahpchueh 'o ro'oh tue' wogee 'enuemee

Two wooden plates stood there, on the far side, and they had made a fire right in the middle.
Tue' kue 'we-rohsek' mehl kue nepuy skelee 'o lehlkoo' kue nahko' 'enuemee wonue
leko'n kue nepuy.
When he threw it at them, the wooden plates fell down and it fell right on them.

Two women were sitting there, and one was the girl who was helping, and she jumped up and untied her hair tie, and took off the otterskin and put it on the salmon where it lay.
Weesh 'ee 'oolo' kue 'ne-psech 'we-chpeenah kue meweemor.
My father stood there waiting for the old man.
Noohl 'o newo'm 'w-esek' kue 'o'lehl kwelekw kem wee' 'enuemee ho soo

And then he saw that the house too had been swept as they had done the path.
Kue pontet kem wee 'o lehlkenee'; mos cheetaa ko'l sook ko 'oyhl chpee chkeno'

The ashes had been cleared away; nothing lay there, and there was only a small fire.
Kue 'we-neskwechok' kue meweemor 'o ga'm, Chue so 'o'lepeek.
When the old man came he said, Let us go into the house.
'O no'oh hlo'm cheek'war weeshtue' 'o rek'eeen 'o myootehl kue 'ue-ka'.
He took two chairs, and they sat down and put on their blankets.
Noohl 'o gee' kue we'yon, Cho k'ookwsoo'm kue nepuy.
Then the girl was told, Split the salmon.
'O kue 'we-nekomewet laayekeen weet laatekwso'm mehl kue 'ue-mer'erx so kue

She cut it along the line on its right from its gills to its tail; then its head was cut off, then its tail.
Noohl 'errwerh mehl muehlso'm 'emsee 'we-chewes now mehl lohpee'n pekoyek.
Then she wiped it with grass, and scraped out the blood with her hand.
Noohl 'w-aawechohl wogee 'o tekwsee' noohl kue 'we-yaahl 'o tmenomen tekwso'm,
weeshtue' k'ookwsee' 'o kue nahko' kue nepuy lekonee.
Then the salmon was cut across the middle of its back, and finally she cut it in half at its belly, and so it was cut up on the platters where it lay.
Noohl 'o koo'op' kue meweemor 'emehl hlo'm kue 'wo'hlp'e'y mecheeks 'o
Then the old man stood up and took angelica root, and put it on the fire.
Noohl 'o tegerue'm kue roowo's 'o ga'm, K'ee meraa kwelekw kelew wee
k'e-sewepek'; keekee chue ro'm.
Then he spoke to the pipes, and said, This smoke is your breath; it will spread everywhere.
K'ee 'oohl wee 'o key kwelekw kelew kee naahl nepue' k'ee nepuy.
The person sitting here and you will share in eating the salmon.
Kue keech 'ue-wey 'w-oktketoy kue we'yon kue 'errwerh 'emehl mewolete'w.
When the girl had finished cutting up the fish, she wiped her hands with the grass.
Kue keech 'o 'oo' 'we-lo'og kue 'wo'hlp'e'y noohl 'o hlo'm skuyenee koweesh 'o

When the embers of the angelica root were left, she took out a stout stick and heaped them up so that they would glow.
Noohl 'emehl hlo'm kue nepuy 'we-yah mecheeks 'o nek'.
Then she took the salmon's belly and put it on the fire.
Noohl se'rechonee koweesh 'emehl choone'n 'o tekwso'm noohl kue 'ne-psech 'o

Then with a sharpened stick she cut four pieces and put the plate in front of where my father was sitting.
Noohl 'enuemee chpuerko'm soo chyuuek'we'n 'o mechee.
Then she sat down carefully by the fire.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, K'ee keech no'omue'n k'ee 'wes'onah tue' nekah

The old man said, As long as the heavens have endured this ceremony has been performed by us.
Cho' neee'nowo'm k'ee kwen cho hase'm, Kee nepek'.
Look for whatever you think you would like to eat.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue 'ne-psech, Kue 'ue-'weryken kee nepek'.
My father said, I will eat the part between the fins and the gills.
Kwelekw mep kego'm 'w-egoyek' mocho kee nahksemee cheykue'm keekee 'o markue'm
kwelekw wee'eeet kee nuemee sega'age'y.
He had often heard tell that if a man could take three bites and swallow it all he would be very rich.
'O ga'm kue meweemor, K'ee kwen cho' keech noohl reeegohsonee nepuy tue'
chpee ko'r 'oohl neekee markue'm kue nahche'leesh kee 'we-nepek' k'ee
The old man said, All the time that salmon have been speared, only one man has eaten all the salmon he was given to eat.
Noohl 'o ge's kue 'ne-psech, Kwelekw kee heemenomee meek'oluemek'.
Then my father thought, I will gulp it down quickly.
Kwesee 'eemee wo gohkue'm kee 'we-na'mee meek'oluemek' mee' nuemee skena' 'ohlkuemee
'wo'hlp'e'y chpee mehl pemue'.
But he could not manage to take two bites because it was very bitter as it had been cooked with angelica root.
To' 'elekw weet 'ee nuemee 'we-chahchew kee 'ue-meek'olew mee' kwelekw neekee mehl
sega'age'y 'oohl.
Well, it was difficult for anyone to swallow just because a man got rich by doing it.
Keech chme'y lekwseesh 'o sooto'l kue meweemor, heenoy 'o 'orogo' kue
In the evening the old man went out, and my father followed him.
Noohl 'o gee', Cho' kem nue nerrgerse'm.
He was told, Go and gather sweathouse wood again.
Kue wonekws 'we-sootok' noohl wek 'ee lehlkoo' 'ue-mey; soo ha's,
'Aawokw keech 'ne-muech newook'.
As he went up his weeping could be heard; he thought, Ah, now I have seen for myself.
Soo ha's, Keech newook' muech kue segonkonee kue hehlkue 'we-neeekue' kue
He thought, Now I have seen for myself what is done when the salmon is taken ashore.
Hewonee kwelekw nee mok'ws weesh nuemee mehl ho soo's.
Formerly there was nothing about it that he had thought of much.
Weeshtue' weesh soo wa'sok 'w-esek' kwesee weet ho soo hoole'm 'oohl tue' kwelas

And so he was full of pity that this was how they the people had lived and now he himself had taken part.
Kue 'we-neskwechok' 'ap ho'op' 'o 'r'gerrk kwesee ye'm kue meweemor, Kues

When he returned he made a fire in the sweathouse, and the old man said, How do you feel?
'O ga'm kue 'ne-psech, Kue keech no'ohl ho nepoh kue nepuy tue' 'o cherperhl
soneenepek'; keneemee cheeweyek' 'eemee che'looksek'.
My father said, Since I ate the salmon I feel strong from it; I am not hungry and I am not thirsty.
'O wooyhl noohl he'woneehlehl tue' 'o tegerue'm 'ue-mes kue meweemor; noohl 'o
They were awake all night, and the old man made his medicine; then they sweated.
Wo'n keech so'n keet 'ue wook kem 'o gegok'w kue 'ne-psech kue
Before daybreak even it happened that my father went out to gather sweathouse wood.
Noohl koypoh 'o'lep 'o le'mehl kegoh 'emsee che'lonee nepuy chpee
Then in the morning they went to the house, and ate only soup and dried salmon.
'Imee cheewe'y kue 'ne-psech 'ohlkuemee keetkwo 'o kaamewet' nee 'we-luehleek mehl kue

My father was not hungry because he still had a bitter taste in his mouth from the salmon he had eaten.
Keech wey ko'l ho 'we-nepee'mehl 'emkee 'r'gerrch 'we-lekw 'ee rek'eeen.
They finished eating and sat outside the sweathouse.
'O ga'm kue meweemor, Mocho keeto chkeye'm we'yk'oh kechoyn cho' ko 'o
The old man said, If you feel sleepy, sleep now in the day.
'O ga'm kue 'ne-psech, Paa, mos keeto chkeyek'.
My father said, No, I am not sleepy.
'O ga'm kue meweemor, Nek soo kwelekw ke'l kee chkeye'm.
The old man said, Well, I think you will sleep.
Noohl 'O Chaahl 'We-Repokw me'womechok'w 'oohl 'eme ga'm, Pekwsue hes

Then a man came from 'O Chaahl 'We-Repokw and said, May we not now cross over the path?
'O ga'm, 'Ey, kue meweemor, Kem kee hasue', Kee ko'l

The old main said, Yes, and you may decide to fish at the river mouth.
Kem kwelekw merueh kee choomoyhl kee noohl mechee chpee 'o pemue' kahkah

For five more days sturgeon, salmon, and eels must only be cooked on a fire.
Mocho keech 'ela k'ookwsee' kesee 'o kohchemee tekwsee' laawogee.
When the fish has been split then it is to be cut once down the middle.
Koweecho kwehl che'lohtemew.
It is not to be dried.
Pee'eeh kem kee nuemee shonkee' keekee wee 'ue-pemue' koweecho kwehl
Mussles are to be treated in the same way; they are to be cooked at once and not dried.
Noohl 'o'lehl cho chpee ko'l nee nepue' 'emsee kue raayoy kee chpee 'o
During this time you are to eat at home only, and to drink from the river only.

Go and send word to everyone.

We know what has been done here, but up the river perhaps they do not know.
Noohl 'o ga'm kue meweemor, Kee na'mee wehlowaa choomoyhl kee noohl

Then the old man said, For twenty days more you will gather sweathouse wood, and then you will have finished.
'O ga'm kue 'ne-psech, Mos kwelekw wee'eeet ko'l mehl so'n mee' kue

My father said, This does not matter to me, as my friends know where I have gone.

Six days passed and a relative of his came from the house at Hiwow in Requa, and asked, May we now drink at home, and eat as we usually do?
Noohl 'o ga'm, 'Ey kwelekw cho weet soo k'ookwso'w kue nuenepuy noohl ko

He said, Yes, cut up fish in the usual way, and you may dry it.

'wo-'o'hl kue me'womecho'leesh k'-egolek', To' skue'y soneenep'.
Go and tell them this at all their houses, and then go to the house of the one who left, and say, 'He is doing well.'
Kolo mos cheetaa kues no'ohl keech kee no'ohl 'ue-kemeyek' kue 'ne-psech kwesee soo

It seemed no time at all before my father could go home, so little had the time dragged.
Tue' kneweteek' kem 'o ko choomo'o'l noohl 'esee keme'y so Rek'woy.
He stayed nine days before going home to Requa.
Noohl weeshtue' kem 'ap 'o nerrger's tue' 'o kohtoh hegor noohl weeshtue' so'n
Then he gathered sweathouse wood and kept himself in training for one month more.
Noohl 'o chpega'ro'y kue 'ne-psech ho kue meweemor 'o ga'm, Kues sonkee'

Then my father questioned the old man, and said, What was done with the rest of the salmon?
Nekah kwelekw wonue lekome'y 'o 'o'lep kue ho pemue' mehl
(He was told) It was put away by us in the house up in the roof, cooked with angelica root.
Mocho keet mo'ok'w 'n-ohkuem 'emsee 'ne-'wo'hlp'e'y chegeychekw kue nepuy

When I have no tobacco and no angelica root, I give the dried salmon to the pipes in little pieces.
Kue 'ue-mer'erx 'emsee 'ue-'wa'alox 'emsee kue 'w-aawech 'we-terr 'we-tuuek

The gills and the guts, the back, the head, and the tail of the salmon was none of it cooked.
Tue' we'yon weesh ho tekwtekwso'm, noohl puelekws kue laaregor 'ema ho
The girl cut this up and scattered it at the mouth of the river where the waves break along the shore.
Mocho kue kego'sneg 'emsee k'err' weesh mehl pelomeyehl kwelekw 'eemoksue

If the seagulls and crows fight over it there will not be much salmon that year.

But if they sit around and do not eat, it means that salmon will be plentiful that year.
'Imee wo pelep' mehl wee' tue' 'enuemee ho tene'm nepuy 'o weet 'o no'ohl.
There was no fighting over it, and salmon was very plentiful that season.

Tars are indeed stars at the 30th Olympiad in London, where Newport Harbor High products Misty May-Treanorand April Ross both advanced with their partners to the women's beach volleyball gold-medal match scheduled Wednesday at 1 p.m. PT.
May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings, will be playing for a third straight gold medal in their final Olympics after the duo handled No. 2-seeded Xue Chen and Zhang Xi of China, 22-20, 22-20, in Tuesday's semifinals.
May-Treanor and Walsh Jennings are unbeaten in the last three Olympic tournaments, including six wins in London. They lost only one set in this tournament, after having swept all their opponents in 2004 in Athens and 2008 in Beijing. They have a 20-match winning streak in Olympic competition, during which they have won 40 of 41 sets.
Ross and partner Jennifer Kessy, in their first Olympics, got past Juliana Felisberta Silva and Larissa Franca, 15-21, 21-19, 15-12, in Tuesday's semifinals. Ross and Kessy are also 6-0, though they have lost three sets in London.
Ross had 20 kills in 28 attempts on Tuesday to go with 12 digs and two ace serves.
May-Treanor had 22 kills in 48 attempts against the Chinese, who claimed a bronze medal in Beijing. She also collected 17 digs.
This will be the 33rd meeting between the two American teams, with May-Treanor and Walsh Jennings holding a 27-5 advantage. The two-time defending gold medalists are 11-2 in international tournaments against the former USC standouts and have won the last two, including a 24-22, 24-22 triumph in a 45-minute battle in Beijing on May 11, 2012.
Thus far in the tournament, May-Treanor has 104 kills and 92 digs, while Walsh Jennings has 58 kills, 20 blocks, 10 aces and 41 digs. The duo has 13 combined aces and have only 13 service errors between them. May-Treanor is at .437 in hitting efficiency in London, while Walsh Jennings is at a .563 rate.
Ross has 98 kills to lead her team, as do her 56 digs and 14 aces. Her hitting efficiency is .617. Kessy has 89 kills (a .553 efficiency rating) with 10 blocks, 46 digs and seven aces.
Ross and Kessy have combined for 21 aces. But they also have a combined 45 service errors.
Wednesday's winner will join rower Esther Lofgren (U.S. women's eight) as Newport Harbor High graduates to win gold medals in London.
Newport Harbor has been represented on the medal stand in every Olympics since Atlanta and in seven of the last eight Summer Games, since the American boycott of the Moscow Games in 1980.

Corona del Mar High graduate Tumua Anae and the U.S. women's water polo team will get their chance at a gold medal, after the Americans outlasted Australia, 11-9, in a semifinal Tuesday that went overtime.
Team USA will face Spain in Thursday's final at 2 p.m. PT. Spain rallied from a 9-6 deficit with fewer than three minutes to go to claim a 9-9 tie in the two team's meeting last week in group play.
The Americans will be playing in their third gold-medal match, having won silver in Beijing in 2008 and in 2000 in Sydney. The U.S. won a bronze medal in 2004.
Anae, a backup to starting goalie Betsey Armstrong, is in her first Olympics.

Corona del Mar High graduate and U.S. men's gymnastics team member Sam Mikulak finished fifth in the vault on Monday at North Greenwich Arena.
The Newport Coast resident, 19, who will be a junior at the University of Michigan in the fall, stuck the landing on each of his vaults, despite still battling a left ankle that will require surgery this month.
Mikulak, who won the NCAA all-around title as a freshman in 2011, posted a score of 16.100 on his first vault. His score on the second vault was 16.000, after which he was in third place with three vaulters remaining.
Mikulak's average score of 16.050 was just off the pace of bronze medalist Igor Radivilov from Ukraine.
Yang Hak Seon of South Korea won the gold medal (16.533) and Denis Ablyazin of Russia captured the silver medal (16.399).
Mikulak said he plans to be fully recovered from ankle surgery by the time his college gymnastics season begins at Michigan. He broke both ankles in competition last summer and reinjured his left ankle on the first day of the Olympic trials in June.
Mikulak also competed in five events in the qualifying and four in the team finals.

Last evening Google Earth updated the Panoramio layer adding almost 2 million photos. We added photos up to around ID 6,700,000 almost duplicating the amount of photos available in Google Earth.
We finally could fix one of the most requested issues in Panoramio; the backlog of reviewed photos. The backlog has been reduced from 1 million in early December to less than 100,000 right now. That means that a new uploaded photo is reviewed after only 7 days and will be included in the next update for Google Earth (if selected). Our team of reviewers have been working very hard during Christmas for catching up the backlog. I want to thank Fran Martinez specially for that. I am very happy to announce this and I am also so glad to see my photos from vacations in Azores Islands finally in Google Earth :)
However we had a couple of problems. First the ID counter is broken and the revision status located below each photo is not changing. Thus it seems we are not reviewing photos anymore, but believe me, your photos are been reviewed now only after few days. Second there is a gap, photos from ID 6,400,000 to 6,520,000 have not been reviewed, so they have not been included in this update. However this gap is already fixed and those photos will be included in the next update (revision status have not changed because of the first bug). We expect these bugs to be fixed shortly, sorry for them.
By the way next update will be around March 15th. I hope you enjoy the new photos in Google Earth as much we do.

Lynn Randolph Dearing played for the Lipscomb Lady Bisons basketball team from 1992-96. She graduated in 1996 with a degree in Health and Physical Education. She also holds a Masters in Health and Physical Education from Tennessee State University. She teaches, balances the schedules of three busy children and also coaches the varsity volleyball team at Goodpasture High School, guiding her team to the school's first-ever TSSAA 2012 State Championship in Class AA, finishing with a 45-3 record. She paused for a few minutes to talk about her time at Lipscomb with lipscombsports.com.
What sport did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played basketball from 1992-96. Frank Bennett was the head coach. April (St. John) Ezell was the assistant."
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"It would have to be going to the NAIA National Tournament all four years I was there. We made the championship game my sophomore year and played in the Final Four my junior and senior years.
"It was special team. We had the most wins of any team in a four-year period there. We loved each other and took care of each other on the floor and off of the floor."
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb? How?
"I would have to say coach Bennett and coach St. John.
"Coach Bennett was just an unbelievable teacher of the game. He developed me as a player. He was very patient and very kind as a coach. He able to get everything out of his athletes in a very calm and soothing way."
What is your fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
Beth (Stewart) Stark and I were roommates and we played a lot of practical jokes. We did a lot of fun things. We once tried to change the Belmont fountain water to purple. That was one of my favorites.
"We would dress for fire drills in the most random outfits we could dress in to surprise our head resident. We dressed as fireman once. We dressed like athletes from other sports. We always knew ahead of time about the drill so we had time to dress."
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"Lipscomb prepared me for teaching Health and P.E. and for coaching. I was able to be a part of a social network that has helped. It is hard to put a value on the people I got to know from playing basketball there."
Who was your favorite professor? Why?
"Dr. Kent Johnson, Trish Hodges and Dr. Lynn Griffith.
"I really liked Kent Johnson's classes. I felt like he demanded excellence from all of his students. A lot of us were athletes. He pushed us to the absolute limits. A lot of things I learned from his class I still use today.
"I loved Trish. I thought she did a really good job of making her classes fun. I still do a lot of the things I learned in her class.
"Dr. Griffith was awesome too. Everybody in that department had a big influence on me."
Where do you live now?
"I live in Mt. Juliet, Tenn."
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I work for Goodpasture High School. I teach Team Leadership and Advanced Placement Psychology. And I coach the volleyball team.
"I am all over the charts. That is why I like teaching. It is always different.
"I played volleyball in high school. It just fell into my lap when I got here. I started coaching volleyball my second year here."
Tell us about your family.
"I am married to Keith Dearing, a teacher in the Metro School System. Our oldest son is Will, 12, a seventh grade at Goodpasture. LeighAnne is 9, a third grade at Goodpasture. Jackson is 5 and is also at Goodpasture."

Pardon this brief departure from the genea-games, but I need to rant a little. Men's gymnastics has always been about power, but women's gymnastics has been about style, grace, and skill, at least until this olympics. I never thought I would see the day when a gymnast who fell to her knees on landing would qualify for a medal. But the current scoring scheme, which was of course supposed to correct the problems associated with the old "perfect 10" scheme has also fallen far short of sticking the landing. Of course we already knew there was no such thing as justice in the gymnastics world after the last olympics. So China's Cheng Fei got up off of her knees to accept the bronze medal, knocking Alicia Sacramone off of the medal stand in spite of the fact that she had performed to good vaults with a hop on the landings. Those hops which were deadly under the old scoring system were routine at this olympics. I think it only fitting the Cheng Fei should have to accept her medal on her knees.

I don't normally comment on my on articles, but this needs to be said. The entire scoring system favors those who attempt more difficult routines unless there is a tie, then the top spot goes to the one with higher execution scores. Talk about arbitrary. I will fully acknowledge a little lack of objectivity here since it was once again the Chinese performer who got the gold and an American who got the silver because of a technicality in the scoring system. I fully realize that the powers that be in world gymnastics could care less about what a librarian from Shawnee, American thinks about their system. But they had better take serious these inequities or they will lose what little audience they have. And to set the record straight, I think Paul Hamm should have offered to relinquish the gold medal when the system gave it to him unfairly. Just finishing out my rant. Maybe I should have held this post until the games were over, because I'm sure I will find more things to rant about.

Okay, I spoke too soon about what was wrong with the system. It is not giving more weight to performance it is purely arbitrary. If they don't want to give two gold medals why don't they just flip a coin, it wouldn't be any less arbitrary than the current tie-breaker. The powers that be in gymnastics need to face the fact that their system is broken and fix it before the next olympics.

A qualified arborist or tree care company can help you decide how to best care for your trees or when a tree should be cut down. Use these guidelines to help you find an arborist or tree care company.
Who to Hire
- Check for membership in professional organizations, such as the International Society of Arboriculture, the Tree Care Industry Association or the American Society of Consulting Arborist.
- Look for companies that employ certified arborists.
- Ask for proof of insurance. This includes personal and property damage insurance, as well as worker's compensation insurance.

What to do Before Hiring
- Get more than one estimate and do not always accept the lowest bid.
- Make sure you get everything in writing and read the contract carefully. Does the contract cover everything promised?
- Find out who is responsible for disposing of the entire tree, including limbs and debris. Will the stump be removed?

Day-to-day life in the 21st century would seem downright alien to someone from the 1920s, and, in many ways, even someone from the 1970s. But technology evolves quickly, sometimes disrupting things in unimaginable ways.
These days, those changes seem to be occurring faster than ever, and, as a result, daily routines are constantly at risk of being upended. Here's a look at how disruptive technology and innovation are changing—or about to change—several aspects of your day-to-day activities.

DSHS holds event on West Nile virus on Thursday, May 30, at UT Health
The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) will hold a news conference to educate the public about West Nile virus at 2 p.m. Thursday, May 30, 2013, in Hudnall Auditorium on the UT Health Northeast campus.
State and local public health officials will provide information about the disease, efforts to prevent it, and mosquito control. The event is also for the public and will include question-and-answer sessions.
Texas recently confirmed its first case of West Nile this season, an adult male from Anderson County. Last year Texas reported 1,868 human cases of West Nile, including 89 deaths.
The Northeast Texas Public Health District, the Angelina County and Cities Health District, and the Texas A&M University Department of Entomology are co-sponsoring the event along with the DSHS.
Information about the mosquito that carries West Nile virus will be presented by Gabriel Hamer, Ph.D., a clinical assistant professor at Texas A&M. Dr. Hamer specializes in entomology, the study of insects.
The intensity of West Nile virus activity in Texas fluctuates from year to year and depends on a variety of factors: the weather, the numbers of birds and mosquitoes that maintain and spread the virus and human behavior. DSHS is urging people to take precautions to reduce the risk of contracting the virus:
- Use an approved insect repellent every time you go outside and follow the instructions on the label. Among the EPA-approved repellents are those that contain DEET, picaridin, IR3535, or oil of lemon eucalyptus.
- Regularly drain standing water, including water collecting in empty cans, tires, buckets, clogged rain gutters, and saucers under potted plants. Mosquitoes that spread the virus breed in stagnant water.
- Wear long sleeves and pants at dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active.
- Use air conditioning or make sure there are screens on all doors and windows to keep mosquitoes from entering the home.

The number of people represented by this was 1,535, compared to 1,380 for the previous year.
"We again gave out our allotment of commodity boxes, which is 131," said Dr. Don Warden, another program organizer.
"If all of our commodity boxes are not given out in two consecutive months, then our total, we get in can be cut back," he said.
He said that in April, the pantry was able to provide a good selection of produce, including white and red potatoes, tomatoes, oranges and onions.
"Although we give out one food box a month to clients, they can come in every week and pick up any produce we have," Dr. Warden said.
"We appreciate all the individuals and groups that have been so faithful in supporting the pantry, and all the volunteers who show up every day we are open to work, and all those who have us on their prayer list," he said. "If any would like to see first-hand the pantry operation, we invite you down to see. Thanks again for all you do. We are making a difference!"
The pantry distributes food to its clients on Monday and Wednesday mornings from its location on Buffalo St, a half block west of the square in Gilmer.

Growing up in Florida, Tricia Bean (MATFL '96) had her curiosity about other countries and cultures sparked at a very early age. "I knew a lovely Cuban lady who told me stories about her native country," says Tricia, adding that as a young girl she developed a desire to travel and master the beautiful Spanish language.
When she was fifteen she went to Maracay, Venezuela as an exchange student with American Field Service (AFS) and "fell in love with the people, the country, the music, the tradition, and the language." She happily shares that her Venezuelan friends often said she was born in the wrong country with the "soul of a Latina." She completed her junior year of college in Alcalá de Henares, Spain where Miguel de Cervantes, author of Don Quixote de la Mancha, was born.
The international community at MIIS proved the "perfect fit" for Tricia. As a student she worked part-time for the Santa Rita School District in Salinas, and upon graduation she was hired as a bilingual teacher to teach English Language Development (ELD), Spanish, and Spanish for Spanish speakers at Gavilan View Middle School in the district. Her passion and enthusiasm for sharing her love of language and interest in other cultures is inspiring.
During her time at Gavilan View, Tricia took students abroad with the People to People Student Ambassador Program, was honored with the Fulbright Teacher Exchange Scholarship, and spent a year teaching English in Baranquilla, Colombia. Today Tricia is "proud to be among the talented faculty and staff of Carmel High School," where she and a colleague designed and implemented a program to better meet the literacy needs of native Spanish speakers.
She collaborates regularly with the Institute, bringing students to the Institute's International Education Day activities each year, participating in local language teacher discussions and hosting MATFL practicum students in her classroom. "I enjoy being able to give back to the institution that has given me so much."

Kerala Ayurveda–A Way of Holistic Healing!
My interest in Ayurveda developed when I was in college. During that period, I got to know about Ayurveda and I started believing in the miracles of Ayurvedic therapies. Having heard and read a lot about Kerala Ayurveda, I decided to experience the same and left for Kerala, the 'Green Paradise'.
On being reached one of the Ayurveda center in Alleppey, I came across a collection of remedial programms, massages and yoga procedures. After consulting with the expert professionals, I decided to undergo 'Panchkarma' treatment with full body massage to get rid of stress and fatigue caused by hectic daily routine. A woman masseur poured lots of oil and her gentle touch worked wonders and I felt relieving of all the stress and fatigue.
During my Kerala Ayurveda Tour, I got to know different aspects of Ayurveda. Here is a brief:
Concept of Ayurveda
Ayurveda is basically a science of life. This holistic science of life has the power to cure your body in a natural way. Considered as the perfect system of healing, Ayurveda emphasizes on the benefits of taking personal responsibility for one's own well-being by imparting complete health knowledge.
Kerala is an ideal place to experience Ayurvedic therapies. It is the land where Ayurveda has been practiced for a long time. As a result, now there are many Ayurveda resorts, providing you Ayurvedic treatments through spa, massage and different therapies.
The therapies rejuvenate the body technique and treat the health problems besides facilitating basic fitness. Several of the popular Kerala ayurveda treatment plans include spa treatment plans, panchakarma, oil therapeutic massage yoga and meditation.
Some famous Ayurvedic resorts in Kerala are:
- Aquaserene Ayurvedic Resort
- The Ashtamudi Resort in Kollam
- Somatheeram Ayurvedic Resort in Kovalam
- Keraleeyam Heritage Home in Alleppey
- Ayurvedic Resort in Alleppey
- Kairali Ayurvedic Health Resort in Palakkad
Increasing Demand of Ayurveda
Visitors, not only Indian but foreigners are also eager to experience the bliss of Ayurveda. The Kerala Ayurvedic resorts offer the travelers multiple Ayurveda tour deals in Kerala including eating plan, spa, massage, yoga-meditation and treatment. Ayurveda massage is an importance remedy that may be used to men and women with no age bar.
Benefits of Ayurveda
Ayurvedic treatment uses medicated oils, drugs or powder prepared from natural herbs and plants as a result causing no side-effects.
Ayurvedic treatment also contributes in making the body more responsive to medicines and cures you by balancing the doshas which is a quick way of the healing process.
Yoga exercises help in strengthening the muscles, bones and many important organs like liver & heart, thus improve the blood circulation.
Ayurvedic therapies and meditation aid in calming down the nerves and relieve you of all the stress of day-to-day life.
Panchakarma and Yoga exercises are also helpful in removing the harmful toxins from you body and thus making you feel relaxed.
Branches of Ayurveda
Following are eight branches of Ayurveda:
- Kayachikitsa-Internal Medicine
- Kaumarabhritya Tantra-Pediatrics
- Bhuta Vidya-Psychology/Psychiatry
- Shalakya Tantra-Ears, eyes, nose and throat
- Shalya Tantra-Surgery
- Agada Tantra-Toxicology
- Rasayana Tantra-Rejuvenation
- Vajikarana Tantra-Fertility Therapy
The wonderful massage with perfect healing touch really energized me!

The suspect in the Sept. 18 shooting taken into custody was identified as Hans Petersen.
San Diego Police Lt. Kevin Mayer said Steven Dowdy was in his bedroom shortly after 3 a.m. in the 5700 block of Waverly Avenue in Bird Rock when shots rang out.
"An unknown suspect, later identified as Hans Petersen, was standing outside of the house and fired a gun multiple times into Dowdy's bedroom," said Mayer. "Dowdy was struck in the lower side of his back by one round. Petersen fled the scene."
Mayer said Dowdy was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
That same morning about four hours later, Petersen allegedly broke into the home of Ronald Fletcher at 1462 Cottontail Lane in the Muirlands area.
"Petersen shot Fletcher once in the stomach," Mayer said. "Fletcher was able to disarm Petersen and during an ensuing physical fight, struck Petersen with the gun. Officers arrived and found Fletcher and Petersen inside the house. Petersen was identified as the suspect and arrested."
Mayer said both men were taken to a local hospital for treatment.
"A handgun was recovered at the crime scene on Cottontail Lane," Mayer said.
Mayer said Petersen was booked into jail after being released from the hospital.
The investigation revealed Petersen was a former business associate of Dowdy's. He said their relationship began to sour when Petersen lost his job and blamed Dowdy.
Petersen is married to, and estranged from, Fletcher's sister.
"It is believed Fletcher was shot by Petersen because of the role Fletcher played in his sister's separation from Petersen," Mayer said.
An investigation is continuing.
Anyone with information about the case is urged to call San Diego Police Northern Division at (858) 551-1700 or San Diego County Crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477.
— Dave Schwab
Hans Antone Petersen appeared in court Monday and asked that his arraignment be delayed for a week so he could retain an attorney to represent him on his attempted murder charges.
Nothing about the case was said as Petersen, 49, appeared in jail clothes before San Diego Superior Court Judge David Szumowski, who re-set the arraignment for Monday, Sept. 30.
Deputy public defender Sal Tarantino told Szumowski that Petersen was not allowed phone privileges in jail, making it difficult for Petersen to talk to any attorneys. On Sept. 20, attorney Kevin Milmoe appeared with him and also asked for a delay, but Milmoe did not return to court on Monday.
Petersen is charged with three counts of attempted murder, two burglaries, two counts of discharging a firearm that resulted in great bodily injury and shooting into an inhabited dwelling, according to a county website.
Deputy District Attorney Amy Maund declined to say anything about the case, either in court or in the hallway, saying the arraignment would have to take place first before she could say anything.
No arguments about bail were heard either Friday or Monday, and Petersen agreed to stay in custody without bail as part of the decision to delay the arraignment until Sept. 30.
