William Francis Carrigan (October 22, 1883 – July 8, 1969), nicknamed "Rough", was a Major League baseball catcher. He was born in Lewiston, Maine.
Carrigan started his career as a platoon catcher and played all ten seasons with the Boston Red Sox. Midway through the 1913 baseball season, he replaced Jake Stahl as manager of the defending World Series champion Red Sox as a player-manager. He then led Boston to a second-place finish in 1914 and two world championships in 1915 and 1916, compiling an 8–2 record as a manager in World Series play. Until Terry Francona duplicated the feat in 2007, he was the only manager to have won two World Series titles with Boston. Babe Ruth called Carrigan the best manager he ever played for.
He then left baseball to become a banker in his home state of Maine.[1] He returned to manage the Red Sox in 1927, but he was unable to duplicate his previous success as Boston finished in last place for three straight seasons. Bill Carrigan died in Lewiston, Maine, at the age of 85. He was posthumously elected to the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2004.

Cleveland_Clinic_Host: Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease that affects multiple organs. While it commonly affects the lungs and lymph glands, it also often involves the heart and nervous system.
Cardiac sarcoidosis causes easily recognizable clinical problems in a small number of sarcoidosis patients, however, granulomas are present in the heart muscle in up to one quarter of patients. Cardiac sarcoidosis may cause heart block, rhythm disturbance, heart failure, or even sudden death. With the use of new or technologies, cardiac involvement is increasingly being recognized.
Neurological involvement in sarcoidosis occurs in 5-10% of patients and can affect any nervous system structure. While some neurologic manifestations resolve spontaneously, the majority signify chronic disease which often requires treatment.
Daniel Culver, DO is a Staff Physician in the Department of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care Medicine at Cleveland Clinic's main campus. His clinical interests include sarcoidosis, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, critical care, and interstitial lung diseases. Dr. Culver is a fellow of the American College of Chest Physicians and a member of several professional associations, including the American Thoracic Society, the American Osteopathic Association and the World Association of Sarcoidosis.
Patrick J. Tchou, MD is a practicing Staff Physician in the Robert and Suzanne Tomsich Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Cleveland Clinic concentrating on treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, especially those of complex origins. Dr. Tchou is board-certified in internal medicine and cardiovascular disease, with added qualification in clinical cardiac electrophysiology. His research interests include sudden cardiac death and percutaneous catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias.
Jinny Tavee, MD is a staff neurologist in the Neuromuscular Center at the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Tavee's clinical focus is on patients with neuromuscular disorders and neurosarcoidosis. However, she has a special interest in integrating holistic medical practices, such as nutrition therapy and meditation, with conventional medicine for the treatment of chronic neurological diseases.

Cleveland_Clinic_Host: Welcome to our Online Health Chat with Dr. Culver, Dr. Tavee and Dr. Tchou. We are thrilled to have them here today for this chat. Let's begin with some of your questions.
char4681: What are common signs that there could be something wrong with your heart or nervous system with sarcoidosis?
Dr__Culver: There is an association between cardiac and neurologic sarcoidosis, so that people with neurologic disease are more likely than others to have cardiac involvement. The neurologic disease can manifest in a whole variety of ways--a common pattern is drooping of one side of the face (Bell's palsy). Optic neuritis, where there is inflammation of the optic nerve leading to loss of vision, is another common way that neurologic sarcoidosis can present. Since any part of the nervous system can be affected, there are a whole range of symptoms, including weakness, numbness, clumsiness, problems with balance, and a range of other ones. Cardiac sarcoidosis most typically presents with palpitations, dizzy episodes that result from electrical conduction difficulties (either heart block or dysrhythmias like ventricular tachycardia), or symptoms of heart failure like edema, shortness of breath, and fatigue. Chest pain is almost never due to sarcoidosis involvement of the heart.
LuAnne: Hi. I have small fiber neuropathy, and I was wondering about the possibility of this spreading into other parts of the nervous system or cardiac involvement?
Dr__Culver: We have seen several patients with simultaneous small fiber neuropathy and involvement of the nervous system or heart with classic sarcoidosis inflammation. However, the much more common scenario is that the cardiac and neurologic symptoms are related to small fiber symptoms, such as occur with dysautonomia. For example, palpitations and racing heart are very common with small fiber disease. We usually do a careful assessment for typical sarcoidosis organ involvement, and also for SFN with very different tests, in order to determine the cause of the symptoms.
mtnclimber: I am on 80mg bid of sotalol for my ventricular dysrhythmias presumably caused by cardiac sarcoidosis. It is making me very tired; is there another drug I can try?
Dr__Tchou: Sotalol is a beta blocker as well as an antiarrhythmic medication (type III). If sotalol at this low dose is causing too much tiredness, then it can be switched to another type III antiarrhythmic that does not have much beta blocker effect. Dofetilide (Tikosyn®) is currently the only other pure type III antiarrhythmic medication available that can be used. It works very much in the same manner as sotalol, but has NO beta blocker effect. Separate doses of beta blockers can be added as needed. Another alternative is amiodarone. But that medication may have much more organ toxicities when used as a long term therapy. Not all physicians use dofetilide, so you would need to consult with a specialist who is comfortable with using this drug.
albertcamus111: For cardiac sarcoidosis, which one of the steroid-sparing agents might be best, and does it have any primary benefit in and of itself?
Dr__Culver: There are no studies that really evaluate that question well. We think that the response to therapy in the heart is slower, and less reliable than in the lungs. Many physicians think that higher doses of steroids are needed as well, but there is one study from Japan (Yazaki) that suggests that using doses of more than 1/2 mg/kg of steroids did not confer additional benefit as opposed to more moderate doses.
We have used combinations of agents, including methotrexate, leflunomide, azathioprine and steroids. Cyclophosphamide was used more in the past, and might be useful for truly refractory cases. However, more recently we have started using some infliximab for cardiac sarcoidosis. This must be done with caution, as some trials in heart failure patients suggested that infliximab actually caused death more often than placebo. Therefore, there is a black box warning about the use of that class of medications in heart failure patients. However, in selected refractory cases, in consultation with a physician experienced with these issues, it can still be considered.
NE: I was on infliximab (Remicade®) for a year for my sarcoidosis but was taken off in March of 2010 because of stocking and glove neuropathy that my doctor felt might be a symptom of demyelinating disease. After spinal tap, nerve conduction testing, and brain MRI, I was told that there was white matter but did not appear to be demyelination, so I could resume the Remicade. I am reluctant to begin the Remicade again. My question is, "Is it wiser to live with the symptoms (joint pain, muscle pain, night sweats/temperature dysregulation, tremors, memory loss) or to resume the Remicade?"
Dr__Culver: The symptoms you describe sound more like manifestations of small fiber neuropathy than classic neurosarcoidosis. If they are very severe, you could consider resuming the infliximab. However, infliximab is often not very helpful for them. Other options could be considered, such as gabapentin for the nerve pain. Sometimes, in very severe cases, we have used immune globulin (IVIG) to treat small fiber disease.
walkerfreely: Is sarcoidosis of the nervous system treated with steroids also?
Dr__Tavee: Yes. It is actually sometimes the first line of treatment depending on where the problem is. For brain and spinal cord problems, I usually start with high dose IV steroids as patients tend to respond quickly. Steroids are also helpful for headaches. For small fiber neuropathy, however, steroids usually don't help as much. I tend to prefer IVIG.
ASFL: What are some of the beginning signs that sarcoidosis is having a neurological effect?
Dr__Tavee: Just about any part of the nervous system can be affected by sarcoidosis. But the most common manifestations are facial weakness on one or both sides, visual changes due to optic nerve involvement, and headaches. Other symptoms include numbness and tingling in the feet/hands due to neuropathy or weakness which could be related to muscle or spinal cord disease.
ASFL: Are there specific tests or blood work a person with Sarcoidosis should inquire about undergoing with their doctor if they suspect signs of neurosarcoidosis?
Dr__Tavee: The tests ordered depend on what kind of symptoms you're having. With numbness and tingling of the limbs, an EMG and possibly a skin biopsy would be good to look at the nerves. Headache, cognitive changes, visual changes would be evaluated with an MRI brain scan. Changes in reflexes and leg and arm weakness with sensory problems can also point towards a brain or spinal cord lesion, so an MRI of both may be necessary. Bowel or bladder issues especially point towards a spinal cord lesion. A spinal tap may also be helpful. There are of course many other tests that you can order, but these are the most common. For blood work, an ACE points toward sarcoidosis but not necessarily neurosarcoidosis. Soluble IL 2 receptor level is another marker we're obtaining to help confirm active disease, but again this could be for systemic sarcoidosis rather than neurosarcoidosis.
rtournas10: Is uveitis that is caused by sarcoidosis considered neurosarcoidosis?
Dr__Culver: Uveitis refers to inflammation of the structures of the eye. Sometimes, vision is affected when the optic nerve, the nerve leading from the eye to the brain, is inflamed. That would technically not be termed uveitis, but could present with similar symptoms of blurry vision. Optic nerve involvement is probably the second most common manifestation of neurosarcoidosis.
nicnelson56: With respect to the upcoming neurosarcoidosis chat, I understand that ACE levels are of questionable use when determining whether a patient has neurosarcoidosis because many people with neurosarcoidosis don't have high levels. But, in my case, I am still searching for a diagnosis to explain my multifocal neurological problems, and a recent test showed high ACE levels. In your opinion, does a high ACE result in someone with neurological impairment suggest a need for further investigation into possible neurosarcoidosis? Similarly, in my case, I had an "indeterminate" level of neuron-specific enolase (15). Is NSE implicated at all in neurosarcoidosis? Thanks for considering my question(s)!
Dr__Tavee: Although ACE is indeed a nonspecific marker of inflammation, in my patients with confirmed neurological disease (via EMG, MRI, or skin bx) and an elevated ACE, I do proceed with further evaluation to look for systemic sarcoidosis. CXR and CT scan are good places to start usually. As for the NSE, this is more for brain death prognostication and neurodegenerative diseases. They're not routinely used in sarcoidosis.
LibbyJ: I have had some symptoms that I think may be related to my sarcoidosis. I am not sure if I could have neurosarcoidosis. A year and half ago I had long thoracic nerve palsy (which caused winging of my right shoulder), and recently my right index finger has become paralyzed at the top joint. The finger has been paralyzed since December. I also have numbness in my fingers and toes, hand tremors, and sometimes numbness on my face (mostly along the left cheek bone). A few months ago I had a weird arm seizure for about 10 seconds where my arm just kept jerking back and forth, and I had no control over it. I also have balance issues, and my memory is getting worse, mostly in terms of names of people and places or things. I will forget the name of something that is part of my everyday vocabulary. It is very scary and embarrassing. I am only 28 yrs old.
Dr__Culver: All these symptoms could be related to sarcoidosis involving the neurologic system, although long thoracic nerve palsy is much more often related to an injury to the nerve. However, these symptoms are very non-specific, and so if there is not a pre-existing diagnosis of sarcoidosis elsewhere, then they are very unlikely to be related to sarcoidosis. The best way to approach them would be an evaluation by a neurologist. If there is suspicion of sarcoidosis as a cause, then a chest CT and possibly a bronchoscopy are often useful to obtain a diagnosis.
Dr__Tavee: Sorry to hear about your symptoms. It is very possible that this could represent neurological complications of the sarcoidosis. I would recommend a formal evaluation with a neurologist, especially if you are having involuntary arm jerking. As you mention, this could represent seizures. An MRI brain and EEG (brain wave test) would be important for evaluation of this, as well as the balance and memory issues. As for the numbness, an EMG (nerve and muscle test) may be helpful. Finally, we usually recommend neuropsychiatric testing for cognitive issues. It's a 3- to 4-hour-long test that evaluates memory, reading comprehension, mood, etc. Good luck!
mlrm290: I was diagnosed with neurosarcoidosis of the spinal cord, affecting my lower body, and I also have small fiber neuropathy. Weather seems to have a huge effect on my nerves. Do you know if this is true, and why it reacts this way? Is there anything I can do to prevent feeling so terrible?
Dr__Tavee: Sorry to hear you have both the cord and the small fiber nerves involved. Unfortunately, temperature extremes will definitely affect how you feel. Increased heat as with hot tubs or a humid day slows down the signal transmission through your spinal cord, making everything you have worse. But cold affects nerve transmission in the small (or large) fibers, resulting in increased pain. My best advice would be to keep cool on a warm day by keeping an ice cold spritzer bottle near you and spraying your face/neck if you're out on the beach or outside. Avoid hot tubs and humid climates if possible. For cold, keep your feet as warm as possible. I recommend diabetic socks. Good luck!
HECTOR: Dr. Tavee, I have white matter lesions—multiple in the brain and brain stem, and one in the cervical spine. I responded well to IV Medrol® and long-term oral prednisone. There is no biopsy-proven sarcoidosis found anywhere else. I have residual ataxia and pain and numbness in joints and muscles. I am down to 2.5 mg. prednisone/day. What are signs that I am in a flare-up of neurosarcoidosis. Would you recommend a PET scan? What other tests would run on a routine basis besides an MRI and a neurological exam every 3 months? Thank you.
Dr__Tavee: Hi, Hector. Glad that you have responded to the steroids. It's interesting that you have neurosarcoidosis in the absence of systemic sarcoidosis, which is rather rare. Unless it is biopsy-proven, then I would make sure you don't actually have another condition such as multiple sclerosis. Further work-up may be needed. However, if it is indeed biopsy-proven and you are otherwise stable, then serial monitoring with the MRI and neurological exams would probably be enough with respect to testing from a neurological standpoint. A PET may be useful to look for other mimics of sarcoidosis (if not biopsy-proven) or systemic involvement of the sarcoidosis if it is biopsy-proven. As for signs of recurrence: worsening of your current symptoms, vision changes, hearing loss, increased HA, more numbness and tingling, bladder/bowel problems or cognitive changes could indicate something new. Good luck
mmerkel: Is treatment always necessary when you have asymptomatic cardiac sarcoidosis (have ICD just in case), and if so, is it for a lifetime if PET scan shows activity still?
Dr__Culver: If the PET FDG scan shows active inflammation, I would recommend suppressive therapy. Active inflammation is probably what leads to scarring, which can then lead to ventricular arrhythmias. It is good that you have an ICD for a safety net just in case you develop serious ventricular arrhythmias. But it is much better to prevent ventricular arrhythmias if possible. The question of the duration of therapy is difficult. At present, PET FDG is probably the only decent way of assessing the activity of inflammation. So, after a few years of therapy, one can retest and see if the inflammation has subsided and then consider tapering off the medications.
The ICD that you had placed is like a safety net. It is great to have it there but you don't want to have to use it much. If you end up receiving a lot of therapies from it, it can be very traumatic. We usually try to suppress the need for therapies, using a combination of immunosuppressive, anti-arrhythmic medications, and sometimes ablation of irritable foci of the heart.
pfehrman: When my lymph nodes were biopsied around my aorta, it showed sarcoidosis. Does that automatically mean the heart is affected?
Dr__Culver: No, lymph node involvement, even near the heart, does not imply in any way that the heart is involved. In fact, even when the lining of the heart (the pericardium) is inflamed from sarcoidosis, that does not necessarily mean that heart muscle or electrical system is affected.
Sunpokebill: How does sarcoidosis invade the heart--through the neurological pathways or the muscle fibers? Can sarcoidosis be the only contributing factor that creates atrial fibrillation or does sarcoidosis show up as an opportunistic affliction only? I am curious as to its predominant mechanism once detected in or around the heart. Thank you for your reply. Perhaps there is a publication I should read instead of asking here; if so, can you direct me?
Dr__Tchou: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is such a common arrhythmia that it is difficult to attribute it to sarcoidosis. However, it is a possibility that sarcoidosis can influence AF in someone who has that propensity anyway. We don't think it traffics through nerves or muscle. Possibly it gets around via the lymphatic system, but we don't have any positive evidence.
LibbyJ: I was diagnosed with pulmonary sarcoidosis via VATS biopsy in November 2011. I have some cardiac issues and was wondering if you think this could be caused from cardiac sarcoidosis? My issues/symptoms include: shortness of breath, dizziness, close to blackout upon standing, chest pain (sharp pain and tightness when lying down), pain in left breast (could be from VATS), vascular problems (Reynaud's & livedo reticularis), and a slight heart murmur. I have had a TTE w/ Doppler that showed an ejection fraction of 55%, minimal sclerosis of the aortic valve, mitral LDI lateral wall index low at 4. Also, my EKG was normal. Heart disease does run in my family (starting at a young age).
Dr__Culver: This question gets to the issue of diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis. Most patients with cardiac symptoms and sarcoidosis actually have another cause for their symptoms, but if other causes for the cardiac symptoms have been evaluated carefully, and there are either electrical or imaging features consistent with sarcoidosis, then we generally attribute the symptoms to cardiac involvement. Chest pain is common in sarcoidosis but is almost never from cardiac involvement. It should be evaluated by a cardiologist.
char4681: When should your doctor be concerned if your heart is involved in sarcoidosis?
Dr__Tchou: If you have known sarcoidosis elsewhere and you have abnormalities in your cardiac electrical system, then you should be evaluated for the possibility that the sarcoidosis involves your heart as well. Abnormalities of atrioventricular conduction, high amounts of ventricular arrhythmias, or more seriously ventricular tachycardia should all raise the issue of cardiac involvement.
Winston: My 23-year-old daughter was just diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis—only in the heart that we know of. How common is it to just present itself in the heart? She has a biventricular pacemaker/defibrillator. How likely is cardiac sarcoidosis to reoccur after her prednisone treatments which, so far, have helped her EF jump from 25% to 50%? She has many more years to deal with it than most others because she is so young. Has cardiac sarcoidosis every resolved itself completely and not come back?
Dr__Culver: Isolated cardiac sarcoidosis is uncommon but can occur. I am not aware of any literature that gives a reliable frequency, probably because making the diagnosis is difficult. I would not be convinced about the diagnosis unless there is a biopsy showing granulomas in some part of the body. Notwithstanding that, the response to steroids is quite dramatic. I would favor long-term therapy, and very gradual cautious attempts to withdraw it. There are certainly a substantial number of patients for whom the disease seems to quiet down over time, but with that severe of an effect, I would be very cautious about withdrawing therapy anytime in the next few years.
Dr__Tchou: It is very encouraging that her ejection fraction has improved to the normal range. I suspect that the benefit is likely due to the biV pacing. You did not mention the scenario where she received the biV device. Given this response, I suspect that the biV pacing may have either compensated for left bundle branch block or for complete heart block with a standard pacemaker in the right ventricle. It is quite possible that the heart block or even the left bundle branch block could be due to sarcoidosis, but that is not the only possible explanation. If sarcoidosis is a confirmed diagnosis, then longer term immunosuppressive therapy should be pursued.
kimviola: Is a positive gadolinium MRI an indication of active cardiac sarcoidosis, or does it just indicate that there has been sarcoidosis involvement in the past?
Dr__Culver: Late enhancement on gadolinium MRI is the most common finding in cardiac sarcoidosis, but it can indicate either scar or active inflammation. When there is T2 prolongation on MRI, this is a sign of edema and is more suggestive of active disease. We often find PET to be a better tool for assessment of disease activity.
DonnaN: I have diagnosed with SVT, and my cardiologist says it isn't sarcoidosis related. I'm not so sure. Do you think it may be cardiac sarcoidosis related?
Dr__Culver: SVT or supraventricular tachycardia generally refers to a rapid heart rhythm that involves the upper chambers of the heart. These are generally not associated with other structural heart diseases. So, it is highly unlikely that SVTs are related to sarcoidosis. Although not totally impossible, it is quite unlikely that SVTs are related to sarcoidosis.
intarsiablue: A sarcoidosis doctor has said I most likely have sarcoidosis. The needle biopsies of lymph nodes done on each side of my chest have left me with knots, predominantly over my heart area. It becomes inflamed if I try to work out. Can I work out and push through the pain without doing more damage? Sometimes inflammation is good. Can this spread the disease?
Dr__Culver: Sarcoidosis in the skin likes to involve areas of prior trauma, such as scars, tattoos, and prior injuries. So, it is possible that the lumps you have are from sarcoidosis involvement of the needle tract. However, the pain could be unrelated to sarcoidosis, or the lumps could be related to keloid formation. If you are having exertional chest discomfort, you should be evaluated for coronary artery disease (CAD). If there is no CAD, then I think it is fine to push through the pain during your work-out.
chhlaw: I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis 27 years ago. About 9 months ago, I began experiencing numbness in my lower extremities--from the upper abdomen down. Is this some form of neuropathy?
Dr__Tavee: It is possible that this may be a neuropathy, although usually the symptoms start in the feet and come up. The other consideration would be a spinal cord lesion in the thoracic or even cervical region, especially if you're having bowel/bladder issues, or increased reflexes in the legs. It is also possible that it could be something completely unrelated to the sarcoidosis given the big time differential between when you had the sarcoidosis and these current symptoms. I would recommend seeing a neurologist for further evaluation. Good luck!
Kimbre: I have sarcoidosis, and I was just diagnosed with small nerve fiber neuropathy. What is this exactly?
Dr__Tavee: Small nerve fibers mediate pain (burning, tingling) and the autonomic system, which affects parts of the body that are not under voluntary control like sweating, pupillary dilation, heart rate, and blood pressure. Patients with small fiber neuropathy typically have burning, tingling sensations in their limbs/face/chest, but do not have weakness or loss of position sense. The exam is usually normal, and routine tests such as the EMG will be normal. To diagnose it, you have to do specialized testing which includes skin biopsy and autonomic tests that look at how much you sweat. Treatment for sarcoidosis small fiber neuropathy is with IVIG, steroids, and treatment of the underlying sarcoidosis with other immunosuppressants. Pain medications such as gabapentin, Lidoderm® patches, or Elavil® can be helpful as well. Good luck!
jcnc: If a person has chronic multi-systemic sarcoidosis including bones, lungs, liver, spleen, and skin, is on treatment with infliximab, methotrexate, and hydroxychloroquine (plus a few other medications), and develops a small (1.7cm by 11 mm) brain cyst which is probably an arachnoid (described as atypical in appearance) cyst, what type of follow-up would you recommend? Two MRIs done 10 weeks apart found this cyst. Should other testing be considered to rule out neuro-sarcoidosis?
Dr__Tavee: In most cases, an arachnoid cyst in the brain is usually incidental, meaning it's clinically silent and not harming you. Depending on where it is and if you're having any symptoms from it (large lesions can sometimes press on the surround brain causing seizures), other testing to consider includes an EEG. However, if you're having neurological problems unrelated to the cyst, then a spinal tap may be of use. Otherwise follow-up imaging in 3 months would probably be adequate. Good luck.
ladybug70791: Recently I have been experiencing memory loss and feelings in my brain that doctors feel are seizures in the brain. Could this be related to my sarcoidosis? I have it in the nasal passage. I have had 6 growths removed, from both arms and back of neck, and it is also in my bones.
Dr__Tavee: It's possible. Further evaluation should include MRI of the brain and EEG and, of course, a neurological examination if not already done. A formal neuropsychiatric test which objectively evaluates memory and cognitive function as well as mood would be helpful as well. Good luck.
Vinman1950_1: What publications can my family read so we can better understand sarcoidosis and how it impacts the life of our loved one?
Dr__Culver: You can refer to our website more information about sarcoidosis at clevelandclinic.org/sarcoidosis

The Vein Center at Riverwoods
About Us

Para espanol, presione aqui
Complete Varicose Vein Care
Varicose veins are enlarged veins with faulty valves that allow the blood to reverse its normal flow. Rather than bringing blood up to the heart to be re-circulated, the valves allow the blood to flow backward within the veins, causing elevated pressure in the vein.
This creates painful, throbbing, burning and/or heavy sensations in the legs, and over time damages the veins. If left untreated, it may cause swelling of the ankles and calves, pigmentation of the skin, and ulcers of the skin that will not heal.
Unlike surgical vein stripping where recovery may take up to six weeks, patients having the laser procedure are back on their feet the same day and can resume normal activities in a few short days.

Small Cool 2010: Julia & Jeff's Tiny Budget
Teeny Tiny Division #12
Who Lives Here: Julia & Jeff
Location: Cambridge, Massachusetts
Size: 380 square feet
What is your favorite element of your Small & Cool home? It reflects us. It's not super stylish, but neither are we. We found room for all our hobbies. Jeff's nine musical instruments all have homes, mostly on the walls. I have wine fermenting under the kitchen sink. I made a lot of the art on our walls. This is our first apartment, so it was really exciting to have a space that was really ours.
Thumbs Up Voting is only activated for 48 Hours — so don't delay!
What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your Small Cool home? Our tiny budget! I think we've spent about $200 total on fixing the place up — furniture, paint, flowerpots, everything. So I've spent a lot of time trying to tailor the slipcover to the sofa, glue the chairs back together, etc. Jeff made our bed out of oak from his dad's basement and put shelves in one of the closets so we didn't need a dresser. We're both handy in various ways, which definitely helps us make the most of what we have. Most of the furniture is hand-me-down or rescued from the trash.

The color blue in the living room is really pretty and the natural light is nice, this room has a nice feeling. At least you admit you are not stylish and using your space for hobbies is a good use of space.
I do think AT should have a contest for the ones that need help. Lets face it the entries that have all the stylish furniture and accessories and art are not the ones that need the 2,000.00 shopping spree, just an observation.
Great job. I love the blue walls. It seems to help really reflect the light.
Your kitchen space is so cute. Love the creative idea of all the different size storage jars rather then all matchy-matchy.
I love it. It is super warm and cozy and inviting! It looks really bright with those beautiful, big windows and your choice of paint colour. Great job!
I like the color in all the rooms. And that first photo is a really nice, homey vignette. But I wish you had straightened up the bookcase in your living area before photographing it.
Cute place, and well put together. However, I have to disagree with the previous posters and say that the blue walls come off to me as a little depressing. Might not be that way in person though.
paint colors?
Well done. Inviting and cozy.
I love this!! It reminds me of my old teeny tiny apartment that I miss so much.
I really love this. You say it's not very stylish- I actually think it is. It may not be trendy, but I really do get a sense of personal style from this place and I like it. Do you have a patio or just giant windows?
A nice job on a seriously limited budget. For your next creative project may I suggest: make attractive boxes for containing bookshelf clutter. Also: faking a headboard. Resources for either of the above to be found on this site!
Lovely, really relaxed and welcoming and has your personalities all over it. I actually really like that it's not over-designed, but you definitely do have style. And I love that shade of blue, it's bright enough to be uplifting, but pale enough to not overpower the small space (blue is difficult like that). A big thumbs up.
This is a very real apartment, and I love it. That blue is great! Kitchen & dining are adorable! I bet you both are adorable, too!
Wow, looks so nice and cozy, and such a great placement of furniture. Looks much larger in the photos. Great job!
Lori, I cannot agree with you more. I think that this contest should be more for folks who really need the $2,000 shopping spree...not those who already have stylish homes. I also feel that too many people get votes for the "stuff they have" and they are not taking into account the functionality and placement of furniture. My votes mainly go to those folks who are the most creative with their storage solutions and interesting placement of furniture to utilize the space in the best way.
Your should be very proud of your tiny, first apartment! You have done a wonderful job.
i think it's super romantic that your boyfriend (husband?) built your bed. nice, functional place.
A comfortable, calm and lovely home.
Taking into consideration that you only spent $200, I applaud you on making the most of what you have. I think you did a great job with the resources you had available to you. I agree, the only thing that put me off was that the bookshelf needed a little tidying up, that's all. =)
I really admire the simplicity of this home. Don't underestimate the work you have done here -- this place absolutely has style. You don't need a pile of new shit to express that.
The musical instruments hanging on the wall are a nice touch, though it might be bad feng shui to have them poised directly over the pillows! Wouldn't it bring up subconscious worries about being brained by a banjo while you sleep?
As for the shelf disarray, I protest the notion that every visible surface needs to be neat as a pin. There must be room for chaos in every space.
Stay in love!
[What does it say about me that almost all of my favorite entries are from my hometown?]
This is a fantastic use of space! It is pretty impressive to fit a dining area, living room area, and bedroom area all into less than 400 square feet. And I absolutely think you have style! It's stylish in an unpretentious, relaxed, and homey way. I would feel comfortable moving in. :) And wow, $200 bucks is a very, very tight budget. I am now in my 2nd apartment with my bf, so I can commiserate on the no-budget thing.
I agree with you that it isn't "stylish" in the typical AT sense of the word, but it still looks warm, cosy and lived in by real people.
It looks like a nice place to come home to at the end of the day and curl up on the couch with a coffee and a book.
Darling kitchen!
This looks like such a happy home! Very well done, Julia and Jeff!
Your home has it's own unique vintage appeal - you've simply added on with your own lovely choices such as the paint color which helps enhance it's beauty. I love, love your kitchen and bathroom! Very sunny, bright, and inviting.
Very sweet, and since violins are among of THE MOST gorgeous things ever invented, love your bedroom display.
There is something about your home, while lowkey and unassuming, that just totally exudes the lovely life lived here (I hope that is true!)... and that is no easy feat.
Keep doing what you're doing!
This is so sweet - great job creating a home for yourself!
This is cute and cozy on a budget. I really like that tablecloth. People hardly use tablecloths anymore.
But, instruments mounted overhead would bother me at bedtime.
cute kitchen..but the beige or light yellow seems not very nice
Great bones here, althought I think there are probably some great low cost options you could have used for disguising your shelf clutter. Hide your clutter, and your place will seem a million time bigger (I say this only from experience in a tiny apt). I like the use of the instruments on the wall.
Any two people who can live happily together in 380 sqft and not want to kill each other deserves some kudos!
Thanks for the kind comments!
LaDonnaNichole - the bathroom and main room are actually the same paint color diluted with different amounts of white. I think it was Ace paint in "Maryann". (The gallon of white paint was free from the landlord - I just tinted it!)
Mikey1234 - yes, the yellow in the kitchen has the unfortunate quality of looking beige in sunlight, though it is pleasantly sunny by artificial light. Clearly I haven't mastered the art of picking out yellow paint.
To those who were worried about the instruments over the bed - it kind of worried us, too. Since taking these pictures I did move things around so they're no longer over the bed. But the weirdest part was that when we were talking in bed, the banjo would hum.
Midwestdiva - if you saw what the table looked like underneath, you'd put a tablecloth over it, too :)
I love how you pulled everything together so well, despite your small budget! My "first apartment budget" has been similar, and I haven't done nearly so well a job. I also love the musical instrument storage, and the really well done slipcovers. Your apartment is great real-life inspiration, so thank you for sharing!
I'm sorry, but I don't understand how this apartment was even considered for entry.

The New Old: Anthony Malat & Jamie Isaia's NeoVictorian
New York Magazine
Anthony Malat Jamie Isaia rent a 700-square-foot one-bedroom in Williamsburg. The creative couple — he's a fashion designer and she's a photographer — embraced the scavenger aesthetic and reworked their space with street finds and hand-me-downs to create an eclectic, curated home.

This is exactly how I imagine a fashion designer and photographer would live. Fascinating! It's so creative. And what an eye!
This is wonderful. It really reminds me of the interiors of the newer Sherlock Holmes movie with all the trinkets and knick-knacks and what-have-you's.
Nice and fresh!
Cool apartment. Even cooler shoes.
Very cool, We love your dog! we are looking for the same breed.
It's a bit cluttered for me, but I love how you guys really made everything your own here.
And the dog is adorable. Looks like he arrived perched on that chair! Cute.
Hurray!! Finally a place that isn't a monument to minimalism! Lovely choices
I am glad that you understand that when you live in a small space , you need eye candy to keep you entertained.
heavy. heavy..and heavy. Heavy on the eye, the stomach, the soul, the heart. It's almost as though they are trying to distract themselves from something pretty big and cumbersome by adding more big and cumbersome things.
@msjessica They could also be completely comfortable with themselves and know who they truly are, so they are able to see beauty in all of those wonderful objects. What you may find distracting, others may find intriguing.
I love this place, each piece has character and a story. So much better than seeing the cookie cutter Pottery Barn/Ikea apartments that have been showing up recently.
I am getting a sense of deja vu here– this is how I imagined the home at the end of Never Let Me Go.
so wonderful to see a home that is not sparse/empty/minimal represented on this site. nothing wrong with a minimal aesthetic, but there are other ways to live. it's just nice to see an opposing point of view sometimes.
but i could be thinking this because it reminds me of my own home... ; )

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
A squishy cowl knit up in chunky weight yarn, sure to keep you warm as
the weather cools. A simple stitch pattern and big needles promise a quick knit, and a cowl equally suitable for women or men. Use an extra-soft yarn for guaranteed snuggliness.
I taught myself to knit with a copy of Knitting for Dummies 5 years ago, and haven't looked back since. I've expanded into designing knitwear and writing knitting patterns, and occasionally dabble in dyeing and spinning as well.

Clovis Oncology Inc. (CLVS) said early results from two separate studies suggest the potential cancer inhibitors rucaparib and CO-1686 were well-tolerated by patients.
The drug maker said ongoing Phase I/II clinical studies are evaluating rucaparib for the treatment of ovarian cancer and CO-1686 for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer in patients with initial activating epidermal-growth-factor-receptor mutations as well as the dominant resistance mutation T790M.
Clovis said the initial results from the Phase I dose-escalation portion suggest rucaparib is both well-tolerated and predictably absorbed, while 89% of patients with ovarian cancer demonstrated a clinical benefit.
Thirty-seven patients were treated with rucaparib in once-daily doses of up to 300 milligrams and twice-daily doses of up to 480 milligrams. The common side effects attributed to rucaparib were fatigue, nausea and decreased appetite.
Meanwhile, 42 patients were treated with CO-1686, mostly in once-daily and twice-daily doses of up to 900 milligrams.
"There are no approved treatment options for patients with non-small cell lung cancer who have developed the T790M resistance mutation," said President and Chief Executive Patrick J. Mahaffy. "We are extremely encouraged by these initial results which suggest that CO-1686 is well-tolerated and offers clear evidence of meaningful activity in a heavily pre-treated patient population, despite not yet having established our" maximum tolerated dose.
Shares closed Friday at $36.58 and were inactive premarket. The stock has climbed 68% over the past three months.

Getting used to living in a new home can be a bit of a challenge, and quite often there are things you discover about the place that you didn't notice before you signed the closing papers. Sometimes it's a leaky faucet or a creak in the stairs, but one guy in Texas got a whole lot more than he bargained for. Because one day, he found a ton of people standing around a tree in his front yard. Creepy, huh?
He noticed that the people were leaving candles and flowers around the tree and assumed that there had been some sort of accident there or something like that, which seems like a logical explanation. But as it turns out, crowds have been flocking there for a much more interesting reason. They believe that they can see the image of the Virgin Mary imprinted in the tree.
Seeing the Virgin Mary is a very sacred and serious thing to those who believe it's possible. Remember the guy who swore he saw her in his grilled cheese sandwich a while back? I think it may have even been put up for sale on eBay. Good thing nobody had any interest in eating it.
All religious aspects aside, I'm just not sure that I'd be too keen on having a bunch of visitors hanging out in my front yard every day. I mean, that would totally eliminate the possibility of running out there in my bathrobe to get the mail and hoping that no one sees me. (Not that I ever actually do that.)
The dude with the tree in Texas, however, is a really laid-back guy and doesn't seem to mind one bit. He actually embraces the fact that people are flocking to his tree, and thinks it's important to let them come and reinforce their faith.
At first glance, the imprint in that tree looks like -- well, an imprint in a tree. But when studying it with the Virgin Mary in mind, I can totally see her standing there. The resemblance really is kind of uncanny!
All the trees in my yard definitely pale in comparison to this one. I've really just got your average, everyday typical suburban yard. But I guess I'll have to take a closer look at my trees if I ever catch a crowd of people out there. You never know what might be hiding in the bark.
Would you let visitors continue to leave offerings if this tree were in your yard?
Image via Guitarfool5931/Flickr
Just looks like tree bark to me.
no way ,,,
Seems like something the sellers should have disclosed. No way would I want a bunch of people hanging out in my yard.
ok, wait one doggone second....people do realise therre are no actual picures of Mary right??? The bible gives no description of her physical appearence so what these people are flocking to is a shape in a tree that slightly resembles an artists interpretation of what Mary may have (but probably didn"t) look like.
You better believe I would let them come. For $20 a pop.

Norwich — A crew from AT&T was working to replace a utility pole late Friday following a motor vehicle crash in the area of 275 Washington St.
The crash was reported shortly after 8 p.m. with reports of wires down. Norwich police provided no further details about the accident.
A Norwich Public Utilities spokesman said two customers, including Lee Memorial Church, were without power as of 10 p.m. Power was expected to be restored as soon as the pole was replaced.

Clark & Barlow: Decorative Hardware
Store Profile
- Location: Chicago, Illinois
- Website: clarkandbarlow.com
Clark & Barlow is located in an old brick building at Grand & Orleans and it is a multi-story shop featuring 6,000 square feet of hardware from the most basic to very high end.
The decorative hardware is housed in the second floor showrooms. A worthwhile stop when you are planning (or dreaming up) a job, there is plenty on display and in catalog to choose from. According to their site, 500 manufacturers are respresented with 10,000 decorative hardware items available. Salespeople are super knowledgeable and there is, in our experience, a good amount of stock on hand.
Years ago, we replaced all of the (really awful, shiny, cheap, gold finish) doorknobs in our apartment with new ones from Clark & Barlow. We had an idea of what we wanted - something matte, round, slightly euro-looking, but nothing too fancy....and, if possible, something that we didn't need to order. The salesperson listened, showed us a few things and within a half hour we were walking out with 7 boxes of doorknobs, ready for installation that afternoon. Success!
In addition to the decorative hardware, they also cover other hardware basics - builders hardware, hand & power tools, janitorial supplies and a locksmith service with rekeying.

Are the other Chicago bloggers on vacation? It seems like Chicago has been slow to post anything new for the last few days. SF even has its list of Craigslist/AT classified finds up before Chicago, despite the time difference.
I've tried to go there before - but I think they keep bank hours (9-5, M-F then Saturday until noon or so?) I can't take a day off to shop for hinges & knobs...
love that place! it's such a nice change from big box stores and the clerks are super nice and helpful. I'm a sucker for "old man stores"...
Amazing selection and great service!

I just read a column by automotive journalist Karl Ludvigsen in which he described a meeting between a senior Volvo executive and an influential industry analyst. As the exec later told the journalist, "'It's always interesting to meet people like that in person.'" As Ludvigsen explained in his column, "It wasn't a compliment."

"Hosting a gender neutral baby shower, I was please with this card. It was very cute, friendly and a big hit with my family and friends."
"Loved this baby shower invitation! Quality was excellent and the design review did an excellent job fitting in all the information I wanted included on the invitation. I would recommend this product and company."
"This invitation was perfect for our shower since we weren't allowed to reveal the gender of the baby. My fellow party planners and I loved the whimsical look and all the hearts--they serve as a perfect reminder of all the love that went into preparing for this baby and all the love that will go into raising this baby. We also like the different fonts used to communicate information and the large heart used to indicate the date of the shower. If there's one flaw with this design, it's that the font on the very last line stating where the mom is registered is too small. My eyes are pretty good, but I still have to squint!"
"There were no surprises in ordering and receiving this invitation. The printed colors, the quality of the paper and printing, the customer service- everything was professionally done. I loved the card. I added a picture of myself and my daughter as an infant to the back side of it, The free designer service was helpful in doublechecking the quality and placement of the text and picture."
"I bought these for my daughter's baby shower. I have gotten so many compliments on them. My husband and I are throwing the shower so they were perfect because they weren't too feminine that he couldn't take it."


text: That would be my guess also. We have our own work party scheduled for Taloali that weekend that I hope we get our folks to. I agree otherwise it would be good to show our support since many of us play there. Either way maintenance at all courses is very important and a big factor as to the enjoyment that can be found at a well maintained course and one that has been forgotton about.

Strategy is key to keeping towns viable, audience told
Memorial University business professor Tom Cooper has spent several years examining the need for municipalities to engage in strategic risk management. He suggests it's worthwhile for towns to consider risk, regardless of the situation they're in.
Memorial University business professor Tom Cooper had plenty to say Wednesday about the need for municipalities to manage strategic risks. His presentation was a part of Engage Memorial Fest, held at the St. John's Arts and Culture Centre. — Photo by Andrew Robinson/The Telegram
"You don't want to see your community disappearing. You don't want to see people leaving your community or deciding, 'I don't want to live here because it's becoming a retirement community,'" he said during a presentation that was part of Engage Memorial Fest, held Wednesday at the
St. John's Arts and Culture Centre.
"Regardless of whether you're at 500, 485 or 555 (residents), you're still going to have limited resources in the future, and what are we going to do about it?"
Both the Harris Centre and Municipalities Newfoundland and Labrador have funded research work undertaken by Cooper. He's read plenty of municipal plans, looked at how municipalities in other countries have managed risk and assessed the infrastructure risk facing communities in this province.
On the latter matter, Cooper said municipalities are not in a good place.
"We don't have the tax base to fund a lot of our infrastructure," he said, adding that a struggling economy makes it harder for municipalities to manage water and sewer services and town infrastructure.
Economic, environmental and operational risks tend to be the most common ones. In the case of infrastructure, Cooper said some towns may have buildings that were once vital to the community but are now underutilized.
"Do we need all the buildings that are in our communities? Do we need to keep on retaining those buildings in our communities? Is that going to be a risk to communities for their revenue bases, to actually try and keep these buildings — which were for the most part built when the communities may have been two or three times the amount (of people)?"
Infrastructure options
Towns may consider selling such properties or using them in new ways that could generate outside interest in the community and tourism opportunities.
As far as examples go, Cooper says Asbestos, Que., has managed its infrastructure in a manner suitable to its changing needs. It tore down a town hall that was bigger than it needed and made strategic investments in roads and parks — decisions designed to attract people to the community.
"How communities, how municipalities and how ourselves decide strategically to manage (risk) is an important policy question, and it's an important question for both now and for the future of Newfoundland and Labrador."
Cooper favours regional co-operation when it comes to strategic risk management in smaller communities. He said it would be hard for some communities to justify engaging in that activity on their own.
On the planning side, Cooper said towns should not treat municipal plans as documents to cut-and-paste from other jurisdictions simply in order to quality for Infrastructure Canada's Gas Tax Fund. Instead, they should be treated seriously. He also recommends having an external party work on the plan.
Risk does not have to be looked at negatively, in Cooper's view. He suggests some forms of risk can present opportunities for municipalities so long as they are well managed.
"Ultimately, what you're trying to find any time you're managing risk is optimal risk-taking. You don't want to be in paralysis by analysis, and at the same time, you don't want to be taking too many risks."
The provincial government's role in helping municipalities manage risk is obvious in light of the millions of dollars it provides them to assist with infrastructure needs.
That relationship is somewhat in flux, as it is attempting to create a new fiscal arrangement with larger municipalities.
"I would say if (the province) can start to look at the risks and not just the nature of, 'Oh, is this a good thing or a bad thing,' (but) look at what's the risk for the long-term viability of the province and the communities in which they are deciding to invest or not to invest."
