Stinky Urine Potty Storage & Spillage Problem Solved, Reviewer: Dale M. (San Jose)
I have a sick bedridden grandfather. He was using a special potty container to urinate but unfortunately it could get very messy and extremely smelly from spillage and sitting around. He felt this was undignified and it was causing him great stress and embarrassment. Fortunately, we were introduced to Smelleze® Urine Absorber, Solidifier & Deodorizer Granules by his new home health care provider. Now my grandfather just adds some of these amazing granules to the urine potty which instantly absorbs the urine as soon as it hits it . Then it gets solidified and deodorized in minutes. No more urine spills or odors! This has been a live saver for him! I can see that a great burden has been lifted off his shoulder now that his room smells nice and clean. Thanks Smelleze®!
Urine Absorber Made Life Easier, Reviewer: Maggie
This is an amazing product that solidifies urine into a gel in less than a minute and eliminates the odor as well. I definitely recommend this product that has made a real difference to my life. I'm a disabled elderly person and I use this product in various ways. I insert some in a porta potty at home so that the urine solidifies to prevent smell during storage and spillage when taking it out for disposal. I also use it in plastic bags while travelling just in case 'I need to go' in a hurry. It gets the job done without any mess. I have also given it to my young grandchildren to use during long road trips and their parents love not having to stop frequently!

Urine Spill & Odor Problems
Often times businesses could be invaded by offensive children, adult or pet urine spills and odors. Not only does urine generate a stench that is discomforting, it is also a breeding ground for bacteria. Unfortunately, most ventilation systems only recirculate room air and remove large particulate matter such as dirt, dust, and lint. Pungent urine odors are left free to recirculate in the air you breathe and could increase in concentration if left untreated. Covering up nasty urine odors with masking agents like perfumes pollute the air with chemicals and often times result in even more offensive smells.
Pungent urine odors are mainly caused by the generation of ammonia from the urine. Studies have shown that even low levels of ammonia are more than just a nuisance problem and could turn into a health hazard. It can cause airway defense mechanisms to be depressed, a higher rate of pneumonia, lower weight gains, and damage to the respiratory tract.
The Solution
The Smelleze Urine Solidifier & Deodorizer Granules were specially developed to adsorb, neutralize, and encapsulate pungent urine odors and urine on contact. Smelleze will quickly solidify urine into an easily discardable gel in a matter of minutes and truly cleanses the air of offensive urine odors.

It's No Cover-up
The Smelleze Urine Solidifier & Deodorizer Granules can be used to adsorb and solidify urine in addition to eliminating pungent urine, fecal, bacteria, mold, and mildew odors instead of merely masking them with fragrances. Smelleze is made from a specially formulated super absorbent material and can absorb hundreds of times it's own weight so just a little bit goes a very long way!
Smelleze can be effectively used in any area with a urine spill by the following:
Lightly sprinkle Smelleze granules over the urine spill and wait a few minutes to solidify into a gel. This super absorbent material will absorb hundreds of times it's own weight in urine so a little will go a long way.Each teaspoon has the ability to absorb over 10 oz. (300 ml) of urine.If the urine does not solidify after about 10 minutes, sprinkle more of theSmelleze granules. Once the urine has solidified, it can be swept up and conveniently discarded.

well, i kind of agree, and kind of don't.
forcing key-fob two factor authentication would, in the short term at least, cause way more support problems for blizzard than it would solve, and long term, with keyfobs going out of synch with authentication servers, and batteries dying you get an ongoing support burden. so i'm kind of for an opt-in solution, but i agree that asking the end-user to pay for the opt-in is a bit cheeky, considering how much we're paying already to play this game.
but two factor authentication is definitely needed in some form or another. Currently i think there are two issues that are causing accounts to be hacked.
1) keyloggers - fix this with secondary logon authentication, by asking for a click response. e.g. a random set of pictures, placed in a random order which have to be clicked on via mouse for authentication. or fix this with a phone line that the user has to call, or an sms message that the user has to send in to open up the account for logging in to (apparently in use for taiwan WoW users). do something clever with the authentication process. ask microsoft, or ibm, or google, they all have clever off the shelf solutions already.
2) brute force password hacks - my account was hacked this way, or rather, i'm 100% sure my pc is 100% clean, and there's no other explanation, especially considering that over a space of hours i was forced off line again and again, for no other reason than by hackers tripping some mediocre brute force prevention mechanism at blizzard, that obviously didn't work. They guessed my password because a) it was too simple (fix this by adding a password complexity rules (currently there is none), or password expiry / renewals), and b) the authentication process in place doesn't stop people brute force hacking accounts; there's no lock out, there's no slowing of authentication attempts, there's nothing... and there really really needs to be.
hackers have monetised wow. on a daily basis it's tarnishing the reputation of blizzard ability to provide a secure environment. I got some of my characters back, but i lost a heap load of gold, items, and other characters that blizzard could be bothered, or simply couldn't restore.
for me the price of the authentication fob is small, so i will probably end up buying in to it, simply because i don't want to go through the hassle of spending days getting my toons back.

Don't Look Now — New York Mets Riding High On 7-Game Win Streak!
Friday, April 30th, 2010 | MLB, New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports | No Comments
Call it one of the biggest surprises during the early part of the 2010 MLB baseball schedule – the New York Mets are in 1st place in the NL East.
The Mets have rose clutch hitting from David Wright and rookie Ike Davis, and stellar pitching from Johan Santana (3-1, 2.08 ERA & 1.12 WHIP) and Mike Pelfrey (4-0, 0.69 ERA & 1.19 WHIP).
The Mets are 11-5 at home at CITI Field, they are 13-9 overall (after starting the season slow by losing 6 out of the first 8 games that they played) and they open up a big 3-game weekend set against the Phillies in Philadelphia tonight. Jonathan Niese, in his 1st full season as a regular starter, will look to keep up his excellent pitching (0-1, 3.68 ERA & 1.86 WHIP) against Ryan Howard and the Phillies. This will certainly be a good test for the upstart New York Mets who are looking to dethrone the back-to-back NL pennant Phillies.
Matsui, Pettitte Lead Yankees to World Series Title
Thursday, November 5th, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
Pedro Martinez just couldn't get Hideki Matsui out on Wednesday night. In the 2nd inning, Matsui gave the Yankees an early 2-0 lead with a 2-run HR off of Pedro. In the 3rd inning, Matsui extended the Yankees lead to 4-1 with a 2-run single off of Martinez. Matsui capped off his amazing night – this time against Phillies lefty J.A. Happ – with a 2-run double that blew the game open in the 5th inning. After Matsui's 3rd crushing blow of the night, the Yankees led 7-1 and they would cruise to an easy 7-3 victory in World Series Game 6. The win clinched the 27th World Series Championship for the storied franchise.
For his efforts, Matsui was named the World Series MVP – even though he only started in 3 of the 6 games played. Matsui finished the series with 8 hits in 13 at-bats, with 8 RBI's and 3 runs scored, including 3 homers. His phenomenal Game 6 performance clinched it – no other player had ever had 6 RBI's in a single World Series game.
Although Andy Pettitte did not have his best stuff – 3 ER on 4 hits and 5 walks in 5 2/3 inning – Pettitte worked out of jams and avoided the big inning that allowed the Yankees to keep extending the lead as the night progressed. It was Pettitte's 18th career post-season win and his 6th win to end a playoff series – both major league records. Shockingly, Pettitte also started and won the game-clinching game in each of the Yankees series' wins this October/November – against the Twins, Angels and Phillies. No other player has ever done that in MLB history.
Mariano Rivera – what can you say. Although he did not get a save on Wednesday night, he did get the final 5 Phillies outs of the game. He came in with 1-out in the 8th inning and gave up a double in that inning and a harmless walk in the 9th inning. For the series, Rivera appeared in 4 of 6 games – 5 1/3 innings pitched, 0 ER, 3 hits, 2 walks and 3 K's. Rivera allowed just 1 ER in his 12 2009 post-season appearances. For his career, in 88 post-season appearances, he has allowed more than 1 run in a game only once! Pretty amazing.
Congrats to the Yankees – as much as it pains me to say. The happiest/luckiest guy around is Manager Joe Girardi. If the Yankees had not won, or if had gone to a Game 7 where CC Sabathia would have had to pitch on 3 days' rest, Girardi could have been on the hot seat for his moves. Now that they've won, he gets a reprieve and looks like a genius for "knowing his players and their limitations." Girardi – a 3-time World Series winner as a Yankee player – had this to say about the accomplishment – "To be able to deliver this to the Boss, the stadium that he created and the atmosphere he has created around here is very gratifying for all of us."
World Series Game 6 – Pedro Martinez, Phillies @ Andy Pettitte, Yankees
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
Can't wait for World Series Game 6 tonight in the Bronx. Should be a blast to watch.
Can't believe that Pedro Martinez and Andy Pettitte are going to duke it out on the main stage. The 2 pitchers have faced each other 6 times in their careers, but never in the post-season. In those 6 games, each pitcher has won 3 times and lost 3 times. The visiting team has won each game (advantage Phillies) and Pedro has a better ERA in those games – 3.86 to 5.88. Pedro has pitched better than Andy in this World Series. In Game 2, Martinez worked 6 innings, giving up 3 ER on 6 hits and 2 walks while striking out 8 (he took the loss against A.J. Burnett). In Game 3, Pettitte worked 6 innings, giving up 4 ER on 5 hits and 3 walks while striking out 7 (he got the win against Cole Hamels). Further, Pettitte does not pitch well on 3 days' rest – in 18 career starts on 3 days' rest, Pettitte is 5-7 with a 4.18 ERA. Pettitte has pitched well this post-season, however – 3-0 in 4 starts with a 3.24 ERA.
Plus – you gotta love the quotes from the 2 starters – -
Pedro: "Two old goats out there doing the best they can and having fun with it. I don't have enough words to describe how excited I am about being here. This is just a great gift to me."
Andy: "I think everybody knew it was going to be a great Series. I think everybody knew it was going to be a tough Series. And it looks like it's living up to that."
Fasten your seat belts baseball fans. It should be a fun, but bumpy ride tonight in the Bronx…
Utley, Lee Force Series Back to New York: Phillies 8, Yankees 6
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win, especially when a loss sends you home for a long winter break…
The Phillies defeated the Yankees on Monday night, forcing the World Series back to the Bronx for a Game 6 on Wednesday night at the New Yankee Stadium. Cliff Lee rose to the challenge and picked up his 2nd win of the Series. After giving up a single run in the 1st inning on an Alex Rodriguez double, Lee held the Yankees scoreless until Johnny Damon's RBI groundout in the 5th inning. By that time, the Phillies led 6-2 and looked like they were going to cruise to victory. But Lee gave up hits to the 1st 3 batters he faced in the 8th inning, and Manager Charlie Manuel was forced to go to his troubled bullpen after A-Rod crushed Lee's 112th pitch for a 2-run double that cut the lead to 8-4. But Chan Ho Park rose to the challenge, getting the next 3 outs and limiting the threat to just 1 more run. Manuel then opted to go with Ryan Madsen instead of closer Brad Lidge in the 9th inning. After a double and single to start the inning brought the tying run to the plate, Madsend induced Derek Jeter to hit into a run-scoring double play. Johnny Damon singled to prolong the inning, but Madsen rallied to end the game by striking out Mark Teixeira. You'd hate to see what will happen if the Phillies have a 1-run lead heading into the 9th inning. Given how Lidge and Madsen have pitched thus far, you might just want to leave your starter in the game.
Lee ended up with a ho-hum night – 7 innings pitched, 5 ER, 7 hits, 3 walks and 3 K's. It was only a matter of time before the Yankees middle of the lineup got to him. But he did what he had to do to keep the series going. And given the way Cole Hamels has pitched this post-season, if the Phillies had not acquired Lee from the Indians mid-season, we might be looking at a different National League representative in the World Series.
The other big story – Chase Utley – can't believe it took me this long to get to him. Utley answered A-Rod's 1st inning double with a 3-run home run of his own to stake the Phillies to a 3-1 lead. He also hit a solo home run in the 7th inning that extended the Phillies lead to 7-2. On the night, Utley went 2 for 3 with a walk, 2 home runs, 4 RBI's and 3 runs scored. Utley is hitting .333, with 5 home runs, 8 RBI's and 6 runs scored for the Series. Utley and former Yankees slugger Reggie Jackson are the only 2 players to ever hit 5 home runs in a single World Series. If the Phillies somehow come back and win this World Series, he and Lee will be sharing the MVP trophy.
What it all boils down to – Game 6 – Andy Pettitte on 3 days' rest v. Pedro Martinez on full 4 days' rest. Pettitte gave up 4 ER on 5 hits and 3 walks in Saturday night's World Series win, but he does not have a good history of pitching on 3 days' rest. Martinez pitched as well as could be expected of him in Game 2 in New York last week. Although he took the loss – 3 ER on 6 hits and 2 walks in 6 inning – he lost to the better pitcher that night – A.J. Burnett. Could Martinez outduel Pettitte? You betcha…
Should be fun to watch, especially if the Phillies can force a Game 7. Sabathia is definitely going for the Yankees, but who will get the shot at glory for the Phillies – Cole Hamels, Joe Blanton, Lee? Ah the suspense…
Yankees in Driver's Seat with 7-4 Game 4 Win; World Series Title in Sight!
Monday, November 2nd, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
The New York Yankees are in the driver's seat. With their 7-4 win on Sunday night, the Yankees now lead the Phillies 3-1 in the 2009 World Series. One more win, and the Yankees will have the franchise's 27th World Series Championship.
Sunday night's game was a game for the ages. CC Sabathia pitching on 3 days' rest. Phillies Manager Charlie Manuel going with Joe Blanton instead of his ace Cliff Lee on 3 days' rest. Lead changes galore. Home runs, hit batsmen – what more could you ask for.
The Yankees struck 1st with 2 runs in the top of the 1st, but the Phillies answered with single runs in the 1st and 4th innings to tie the game at 2. The Yankees jumped back on top with run scoring singles from Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon in the top of the 5th inning. The Yankees still held that 4-2 going into the bottom of the 7th inning, but the Phillies would not be denied. Chase Utley hit a solo home run off of Sabathia (his 3rd off of Sabathia in this series) in the 7th inning and Carlos Ruiz tied the game at 4 with his solo shot off of Joba Chamberlain in the 8th inning.
Manuel opted to go with his closer – Brad Lidge – in a tie game to start the 9th inning, and that move proved to be costly. Although Lidge got the 1st 2 outs of the inning, Damon singled and stole second to get into scoring position. After Lidge plunked Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez delivered the big blow just as he had done the night before (he hit a 2-run HR off of Cole Hamels to get the Yankees back in the game and was also hit by pitches twice). A-Rod's double gave the Yankees a 5-4 lead and Jorge Posada followed that up with a 2-run single that plated Teixeira and A-Rod for a 7-4 Yankees lead. Just like that, the air left Citizens Bank Ballpark – Phillies fans knew it was over.
Cliff Lee will try to avoid letting the Yankees celebrate on their home turf. Lee outdueled Sabathia in Game 1 of the World Series, but he will go up against A.J. Burnett this time around. Burnett stymied the Phillies in Game 2 of the World Series, but will be pitching on 3 days' rest, something he has not done so well in his past. If the Phillies can somehow win tonight, it will be Andy Pettitte for the Yankees on 3 days' rest on Wednesday night in the Bronx. Pettitte does not like pitching on 3 days' rest, so the Yankees will not be bringing their best lineup in Game 6. Tonight is the key – if the Phillies win, it would not be surprising to see the Phillies take this thing to a dramatic Game 7 in NY. Sabathia would make his 3rd start of the series and we would likely see Cliff Lee for a few innings out of the bullpen on just 2 days' rest. Bring on the drama…
Burnett, Rivera Even Up World Series with 3-1 Win over Phillies
Friday, October 30th, 2009 | MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports | No Comments
Not that it was a must-win, but the Yankees must sure be thrilled that they defeated the Phillies 3-1 on Thursday night at the new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Going down 2-0 and heading to Philadelphia would not have meant the end of the World Series, but it would have been a mighty hill to have to climb to win 2 out of 3 in Philly and then 2 at home in New York to pull off a 7-game World Series win.
A.J. Burnett's 7-inning gem allowed Manager Joe Girardi to keep his bullpen off the field. Burnett gave up just 1 earned run on 4 hits and 2 walks while striking out 9. After 108 pitches, Girardi called upon Mariano Rivera to get the Yankees a 6-out save and preserve the 3-1 lead. Rivera came up big in the 8th after 2 men were on with just 1 out. Rivera induced Chase Utley – the Phillies' Game 1 hero – to hit into an inning-ending double play to end the threat. Rivera allowed the Phillies to get the tying run to the plate when Raul Ibanez doubled with 2-out, but he struck out Matt Stairs swinging to end the game. And then the celebration began in the Bronx.
Pedro Martinez did about as well as he could given the circumstances – he pitched 6 innings, giving up just 3 earned runs on 6 hits and 2 walks. He also had 8 strikeouts. But he gave up solo home runs to Mark Teixeira in the 4th inning and Hideki Matsui in the 6th inning that gave the Yankees a 2-1 lead. Martinez even started the 7th inning, but Manager Charlie Manuel removed him after he gave up leadoff singles to Jerry Hairston, Jr. and Melky Cabrera. Brett Gardner – who ran for Hairston – ended up scoring an insurance run when Jorge Posada singled off of reliever Chan Ho Park.
Andy Pettitte will square off against Cole Hamels at Citizens Bank Ballpark on Saturday night in Philadelphia. And as it stands now, it looks like we could see a rematch of Game 1 on Sunday night, as CC Sabathia and Cliff Lee are penciled in to start in Game 4 of the World Series on Sunday night. This is really turning into the Classic Epic World Series Battle that we hoped for…
Lee, Phillies Cruise Past Yankees 6-1 in World Series Game 1
Thursday, October 29th, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
Cliff Lee made it look easy as the Phillies cruised past the Yankees 6-1 in Game 1 of the 2009 World Series. Heading into the 9th inning, Lee had given up just 4 hits (and no walks!) through 8 innings while striking out 8. After giving up singles to Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon to start the inning, Lee induced Mark Teixeira to hit into what should have been a double play. But Jimmy Rollins error allowed Jeter to score and Teixeira to move up to 2nd base with 1 out. But instead of getting flustered, Lee simply struck out Alex Rodriguez and Jorge Posada swinging to end the "mini" threat. Phillies 6, Yankees 1, Advantage Phillies with the 1-0 lead. The Lee – Sabathia duel was a good one, but Lee was just that much better. To not walk a single Yankees batter while pitching 9 innings is simply incredible. Lee never seemed out of sync and he never seemed to be intimidated by pitching in the Bronx.
Sabathia pitched well for the Yankees, but not good enough. He only gave up 4 hits and 3 walks in 7 solid innings of work. But 2 of the hits were solo home runs to Chase Utley. The Phillies only broke the game open after Sabathia departed after throwing 113 pitches in 7 innings. Phil Hughes promptly walked the only 2 batters he faced in the top of the 8th inning. Both runners came around to score on Raul Ibanez's clutch 2-out 2-run single against David Robertson. That gave the Phillies a daunting 4-0 lead with just 6 outs left for the Yankees. Brian Bruney and Phil Coke did not fare much better in the top of the 9th inning. The 2 pitchers allowed 2 more insurance runs to score on Shane Victorino's single and Ryans Howard's double.
All in all, it was a solid start for the Phillies. They showed they were not intimidated by the Yankee "aura". They showed the could score runs against the Yankees best pitcher. And they showed that they were in this for the long haul.
There's not too much time to dwell on the Game 1 loss for the Yankees. Game 2 is tonight at 7:57PM EST on FOX. Pedro Martinez will surely be greeted with a lot of boos as he tries to pitch the Phillies to a 2-0 lead against A.J. Burnett. I hate to say there is a must-win game this early in a series, but it would serve the Yankees well to find a way to get a W tonight in the Bronx. Heading back to Philly for Game 3 on Saturday night down 2 games to none is not the game plan that Manager Joe Girardi and the Yankees drew up before the start of the 2009 Fall Classic.
World Series Starts Tonight: Lee, Phillies v. Sabathia, Yankees
Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 | 2009 Fall Classic, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports, World Series | No Comments
Fasten your seat belts and get ready for the 2009 Fall Classic. Cliff Lee & the Philadelphia Phillies take on CC Sabathia & the New York Yankees tonight at the new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Tonight's match-up is a dream match-up. 2 aces who used to be teammates, 2 pitchers who have been spectacular thus far in the post-season, 1 team looking to repeat as World Series Champions, and 1 team looking to recapture that glory and win its 27th championship in franchise history. It doesn't get much better than this.
Tune in tonight on FOX at 7:57 Eastern time for the 1st pitch of the 2009 Fall Classic. Not sure where most people are going, but I'm taking the Yankees in 7 games of an epic World Series battle. I like the Phillies lineup better than the Yankees, but I just feel like the Yankees starting pitching is a little bit deeper. Sabathia is great, Burnett is above average and Andy Pettitte brings that experience that makes him so tough to beat in October (and November this year). There's a reason that Pettitte has the most post-season wins in major league baseball history with 16. After Cliff Lee, Pedro Martinez is a crapshoot, especially with the pressure of a game in the Bronx. Cole Hamels has not been himself, and likely won't be until he gets the necessary rest this off-season. Joe Blanton? No thank you. It should be a great series – now let's just hope it lives up to the hype…
Philadelphia Phillies Tab Pedro Martinez Game 2 World Series Starter in New York
Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 | MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports | No Comments
Nice – while much of the early World Series focus has been on the duel between Cliff Lee and CC Sabathia in Game 1 on Wednesday night, the Phillies made a big news splash by announcing that Pedro Martinez will start Game 2 on Thursday night in the Bronx. Phillies Manager Charlie Manuel likely went with Martinez instead of Cole Hamels because of his solid history with against the Yankees, but it was still a bit of a surprise.
Pedro has made 1 start for the Phillies during the 2009 post-season. Martinez tossed 7 shutout innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 2 of the NLCS, a game that the Phillies ultimately lost when the Phillies bullpen couldn't hold onto the lead.
In 14 career post-season appearances, Martinez is 6-2 with a sparkling 3.13 ERA. He has made 2 post-season starts against the New York Yankees at the old Yankee Stadium, going 0-1 with a hefty 5.40 ERA. The most notable game was back in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS. The Red Sox held a 5-2 lead heading into the 8th inning, but then Red Sox Manager Grady Little decided to leave a tiring Martinez in the game a little too long. Pedro ended up giving up 3 runs to the Yankees in that 8th inning to tie the game at 5, and the Yankees went onto win on Aaron Boone's solo home run in the 11th inning. Overall against the Yankees, Martinez has much better numbers – 8-4 record with a 2.95 ERA. In his only World Series start, Martinez threw 7 shutout innings in Game 3 of the 2004 World Series as the Red Sox swept the Cardinals in 4 games to win the crown.
That was Pedro's last post-season appearance, and that Boone home run was the last time that the Yankees played in the Fall Classic. Two worlds collide as the reigning World Series champs take on the franchise with the most World Series championships in a battle of heavyweight contenders in the 2009 World Series…

An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a widening or "ballooning" of a part of the abdominal aorta.
The aorta is a large blood vessel which carries blood rich in oxygen from the heart to every part of the body. It passes from the heart through the chest area and then down through the abdominal area. Around the navel (bellybutton) it branches into two smaller vessels to supply the legs. This section of aorta in the abdomen is called the abdominal aorta.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a widening or "ballooning" of part of the abdominal aorta. This is most commonly due to hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) which causes an area of the wall of the aorta to become weakened. The pressure of the blood being pumped through the aorta causes the weakened area to bulge. Many people with an abdominal aortic aneurysm have no symptoms and it is often only discovered while having investigations done for other reasons.
Image below found at Care Hospitals
Abdominal aortic aneurysms are found mostly in the over 60 year old age group and are more common in men than women. The person will often have a history of some or all of the following; high blood pressure, diabetes, high blood cholesterol level and smoking.
Abdominal aortic aneurysms which have no symptoms and are 5cms or less in width do not require surgery. They are monitored every 6 to 12 months by scanning (ultrasound) the abdomen and high blood pressure is controlled with medication. Smoking is discouraged. Some patients who are young and healthy may decide to have surgery for aneurysms between 4 and 5cms. Aneurysms will usually require surgery if they are larger than 5cm, getting larger or causing symptoms.
There are two main methods of repairing a AAA: the open approach and a stent graft. When the patient has an open operation the area of aorta affected by the aneurysm is cut open and a tube of synthetic material inserted to provide a safe channel for the blood to flow through. The aneurysm is then sewn around the synthetic material.
These days the aneurysm can in some cases be repaired by a method called a "stent graft". This does not involve the abdomen being opened. Instead the aneurysm is reached by a thin tube (catheter) passed into a blood vessel through a small cut made in the groin. Attached to the catheter is a long capsule containing a tube of synthetic material encased in a collapsed metal-mesh cylinder. When the catheter reaches the area of the aneurysm the stent is activated and springs open and attaches itself to the wall of the aorta. The synthetic tube now provides a safe passage for blood flow.
Patients having this method of treatment generally have shorter stays in hospital and are back on their feet quicker than those having the more traditional operation.
The big risk with large abdominal aortic aneurysms is rupture which is a medical emergency. A lot of blood is lost and the patient quickly becomes shocked. Survival rate is less than 50%.
A blood clot can easily form in the aneurysm and a piece can break off and get stuck in the smaller blood vessels in the legs. This blocks blood supply beyond this point and urgent treatment in hospital is required to stop the tissue in the leg from dying.
Generally the patient needs to stay in the Intensive Care Unit for one or two days following repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The stay following repair of a ruptured aortic aneurysm however is considerably longer.

Polypore fruiting body/fungi are medicinal mushrooms used for centuries as a tonic to detoxify, cleanse and strengthen all systems. Polypore fruiting body/fungi are adaptogens that have a high level of antioxidants that nourish, protect, restore and balance the body.
This group of mushrooms grow on rotting logs and stumps. They are called bracket fungi because look like shelves or brackets. They are usually found on rotting birch trees but are also found on other trees.
Artist's conk is the only fungi/fruiting body identifiable by the ability to etch designs and words on it, and it grows on hardwood trees like maples.
Remove Mushrooms with a hatchet, axe or knife and chop them up with a hammer or axe in a cardboard box. You can dry them out for a couple of days in a warm place. Use polypore mushrooms medicinally in a tea or tincture and they are typically not used culinary.
This is a good documentary about knowing your mushrooms.
There is new research into how mushrooms can clean up the planet by eating up oil spills and breaking down plastics.
There are culinary, medicinal and poisonous varieties of mushrooms so correct identification is important. Caution when picking mushrooms because misidentification can lead to fatalities. Get fungi from a reputable source or take a guide with you into nature and some field guide books to wild-craft but caution is advised!

We already have seen this story before. There are 6 minutes left in the game, but we already know the ending. This is how the Chargers play. Chargers 24 – Broncos 28 right now. Philip RIvers just threw his 3rd interception in the game and this game is pretty much over. Full on melt down!!
Philip Rivers is DONE! He can't make a clutch play and can't complete passes to his own receivers. INTERCEPTION! INTERCEPTION! INTERCEPTION! INTERCEPTION! FUMBLE! Ever just lose a game that you were winning by 24 points?!

Everton Under-18s' excellent run was brought to a halt in dramatic fashion by Reading on Saturday.
The Toffees took a 2-0 first half lead and looked to be cruising towards a seventh straight win only for the Royals to rally in the second half to snare all three points with a 3-2 victory.
The Blues began well and dominated before taking the lead after 20 minutes when Tyrone Duffus slipped George Green's cross home.
The lead was doubled shortly after when full-back Callum Connolly scored his third goal in as many games with a low shot.
But after half-time Reading were much improved and Everton began slowly.
They conceded possession too readily and resorted to the long ball instead of passing it around.
It would be a 45 minute period coach Kevin Sheedy described as their worst of the season and the Royals pulled a goal back after 10 minutes of the half.
A further 15 minutes later it was 2-2 and then, with a quarter of an hour to go a shell-shocked Everton conceded a killer third goal from a penalty box melee.
To their credit, Sheedy's men were stirred and forced the visiting keeper into a number of good saves before the end - though their efforts were in vain.

KANSAS TRUCK OWNERS may receive grant money to buy truck equipment for reducing diesel emissions. Eligible items include engine idling-reduction devices, engine upgrade and replacement, low rolling resistance tires, retrofit technologies and vehicle replacement.

LOVE'S TRAVEL STOP at I-40 in Choctaw, Okla., was destroyed by tornados May 10. Employees and visitors took cover in the beverage cooler and restrooms. No injuries were reported. The company said the location, which has been in operation for nearly 25 years, will be demolished. Replacement plans have not been announced.
PETERBILT'S MODEL 384 was named heavy-duty winner of the American Truck Dealers Commercial Truck of the Year for 2010. Trucks were judged on innovation and design, driver satisfaction, ease of maintenance and safety.
Cross-border plan coming soon
Department of Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood told a May 6 congressional hearing that a cross-border trucking program with Mexico would be announced soon.
"We will come to Capitol Hill and brief every senator that has an interest in what it says, get feedback," he said. "It's part of NAFTA. It needs to be restarted. We believe if it is restarted these tariffs will be lifted."
U.S. Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) questioned LaHood at the end of a Senate Transportation, Housing and Urban Development Appropriations Subcommittee meeting. She has pushed for progress on a new program to end retaliatory tariffs imposed by Mexico after Congress voted to end cross-border trucking last year.
Murray said she hoped for resolution when Mexico's President Felipe Calderon visited President Obama in May. A few days before the hearing, she had met with Mexico's Ambassador to the U.S., Arturo Sarukhan, who told her Calderon planned on raising the issue during the visit.
On April 14, U.S. Rep. Pete DeFazio (D-Ore.) and 78 congressional members sent LaHood and U.S. Trade Rep. Ronald Kirk a letter asking them to renegotiate a section of the North American Free Trade Agreement. He describes this section, U.S. NAFTA Annex I (I-U-21), as committing the United States to "liberalize cross-border trucking."
"NAFTA does not bind the U.S. to accept subpar safety standards, and Congress is not going to waive our rights under NAFTA," DeFazio wrote. "We are entitled to require comparable standards for safety from Mexican trucking companies."

Blog post
Reaching back beyond the 1970s: Relocalization
Posted Aug 29, 2008 by Daniel Lerch
Last month I published a short article on what we learned --and didn't learn-- from the oil crises of the 1970s. We flirted with conservation and renewable energy, but quickly turned back to our squandering ways when a glut of cheap oil flooded world markets in the 1980s.
We also tried a few urban revitalization solution that ultimately proved poorly thought-through, or simply naïve. For example, we imported European-style pedestrian malls without the context of European densities, and pushed a new generation of heavy-handed planning and design solutions that wiped out human-scale streets and neighborhoods.

With reference to your article on 'What we've learned'; We've learned nothing and that goes back further than the 70's if you recall. Unfortunately we're a country of much bounty and beauty and badly managed for the past 50 years following the 2nd World War. Let's hope some new thionking and changes from Barack Obama are on the horizon.

Vermont state police are looking for whoever tried to send cars off the road in Charlotte.
They say sometime around 1 a.m. Wednesday, someone moved the signs near the covered bridge construction site on Spear Street to direct cars off the road.
No accidents were reported, and anyone with information is asked to call state police in Williston at 802-878-7111.


text: Well toady was my deadlift day for my second week of wave 2 with 5/3/1. My last set was 410lbs x 3 or more I only got three, so I was pissed at the gym then when I get home and look at week three of wave 1 I see I did 425 x 3. This has really messed with my mental attitude about myself. I was wondering in wave one I was doing the 1st set of lighter percents from the book. This wave i went with the heavier sets could this have something to do with it. I mean DL is my best lift and to only pull 410 x 3 seems like BS I was thinking I was gonna get at least 5. Any thoughts guys?

Martial power source characters achieve their abilities through training, practice, and sheer might.
Divine power source characters recieve blessings of the gods
Arcane power source characters embody arcane power
Primal power source characters channel the fury of nature
Shadow power source I have a little trouble differentiating other than "Dark Arcane" but that sort of works anyway...
So what is psionic? Is it like martial, but mind over matter? Is it like Arcane but "different"? What are examples of pop-culture characters that could be psionic? Where do I come from when creating a psionic character? Should psionic magic be any more different, rare, or special than martial super-human-ness? Do you have to be blessed with psionic ability, or could anyone learn given enough training and practice?
I understand that much of this is flavor that is variable by game, but I'm sort of looking at the most vanilla stuff so that way I can adapt it in my game accordingly.

Just a note to not confuse the mind this time...
Start the Show is about a character named Crystal who is the rhythm guitarist in Fall Out Boy. I think it's kind of a bit of a pioneering journey, so no beatings (please!). This is just experimental really.
The parts at the end are blog entries, and they're kind in the format of the old FOBR.com website (you know, the comments and questions part). Except I twisted that too and it's quetions and answers (I don't know why exactly, it's just like that)
Uh, read and enjoy, I suppose. Review if you want telling me about how cliche or whatever it is.
Have a nice day.
P.S, In this story you may notice if you read Clandestine's School for the Strange, that Trixi's in this again. And Trixi, if you click on the link from my Bebo, you better give me love. Or anybody else who clicks the underlined words. Thanks.

Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Mark Duper was arrested Wednesday for child abuse.
Duper was allegedly fighting with his 17-year-old son on Tuesday night punched him, then body slammed and chocked the teen at Duper's home.
The argument apparently escalated after Duper learned that his son sent his girlfriend a threatening text message.
Duper was charged with one count of felony child abuse. He was released Thursday after posting a $5,000 bail.
Duper played for the Dolphins from 1982-1992. He caught 511 passes for 8,869 yards and 59 touchdowns and was inducted into the Dolphins Honor Roll in 2003.

It's a Television AND a Plush Toy!
As if we need a way to get kids to watch more television.
Momlogic's Momstrosity: A furry polar bear television is one of the many gadgets on display at the 2010
Consumer Electronics Show. The Teletubby-esque animal has a 19" TV screen implanted in
its tummy. Eh-Oh!
Produced by Hannspree, the arctic bear TV is purportedly designed to raise environmental awareness. The only thing it does for me is raise awareness of the odiousness of market research. I imagine the initial conversation at Hannspree went like this:
R&D Flunky: Boss, our data says kids love television, toys, and animals. Maybe we should combine the three?
C.E.O.: Let's use a polar bear so we can say we're concerned about global warming!
R&D Flunky: Done.
Here's another reason why blurring the line between toy and television is a ridic idea: Buy this boob tube -- list price almost 300 bucks -- and get ready to say this to your kid: "No honey, you can't take the television into bed with you!"
This product is lame, but the vitriol with which you speak about it seems a little out of control. I am sure there is some other product out there that is truly damaging to children that you can direct your anger at.
Say whatever you want about it, but still…you gotta admit it's cute. :)
Seriously, you guys are way behind the market. I've seen this for the first time in early 2006 by Hanspree, a German manufacturer, and I'm not even claiming I saw it early…
Well done. I will definitely share this article with my friends. Thank you for the 411.

Tim Tebow Unhappy with 'Spot Duty' in Jets Offense, Blames Limited Playing Time for Lack of 'Feel' With Offense
Found November 08, 2012 on NESN.com:
PLAYERS: Tim Tebow, Rex Ryan, Mark Sanchez, Luke Hughes
TEAMS: New York Jets, Oakland Athletics
TEAMS: New York Jets, Oakland Athletics
Tim Tebow hasn't been given much time to assert his presence in the Jets offense. One season after totaling 18 touchdowns with a playoff-bound Broncos team, Tebow has been relegated to spot duty in Rex Ryan's offense this year. And the 25-year-old isn't pleased with his new role. "I think when you're getting the ball a lot during the game you can get the rhythm of the game and I think that makes it easier," Tebow said, according to ESPN.com. "You get a feel and a rhythm. I think spot play is fun because you're in different roles, but at the same time it's hard to get a feel. Sometime even if it's just a few plays on a drive, it gets easier. Sometimes that's the harder part of spot playing, but it is fun. I just love playing period." Tebow may think being the Jets' wildcat gadget is "fun," but you can tell by his answer that he's not very happy with his use. With Mark Sanchez getting the starting nod this season, Tebow has only played 7 percent of the Jets' offensive snaps thr

It is chestnut season! Street cart vendors are roasting them and in our mountain orchard they are all over the ground (unfortunately the kind we have are not edible!). In Beirut, chocolate shops are now offering a big treat this time of year, marrons glacés (glazed chestnuts).
Did you know chestnuts are extremely nutritious yet lower in fat and calories than other nuts? (I did not, but glad to hear it!).
Carole, one of my favorite French blogger posted a recipe for chestnut brownies, except she used crème de marrons, a chestnut cream that I was not able to find here; I used canned chestnuts instead and fiddled with the recipe.
These brownies were extremely well received over here.
Use a 9″ square pan. (Can use an 8″ one as well).
Chocolate layer
3 oz dark chocolate at 75% ( 100 g)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp honey
2 large eggs
1 stick unsalted butter (100 g or 4 oz)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
dash of salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp rum or vanilla
Chestnut layer:
1 can of whole chestnuts (15.5 oz or 439 g )
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tsp vanilla or rum (or both)
Make the chestnut batter:
Drain the canned chestnuts very well; place them in the bowl of a food processor and purée them; add the sugar and keep the machine going; add the egg, then oil, then vanilla then cornstarch; transfer to a bowl.
Make the chocolate batter:
Melt the chocolate (cut in chunks) with the butter in a skillet or in the microwave. Set aside to cool for a bit. In the bowl of a mixer (or food processor) place the eggs and sugar and run the machine for a few minutes; add the honey and vanilla then the chocolate mixture; in a bowl, place the flour, baking powder and salt; mix with a fork to blend then add the dry ingredients to the chocolate batter an mix till combined.
Plop the chocolate and chestnut batter onto a greased and floured 8 or 9″ pan; bake in a preheated 350F oven till the chestnut batter is cooked (a knife will come out clean). Cool and serve.

What is better investment property or pension? The government is trying to inform people to buy schemes in pension and property. The government's initiatives aim to promote money spending in these areas.
The government also plans to provide loans to buyers up to twenty percent of the value of the new property and this can be started with a simple 5 percent of deposit.
The government has already done a lot in this sector to infuse money through Funding for Lending schemes and the scheme brought in £80 billion funds to the banks that were lent out in mortgages. This resulted in increasing house price in London and the South East.
The purchase through buy-to-let is an attractive argument but the government is not guaranteeing that the house price will increase in future and buyers are hesitant to invest in it. The huge property price crash in 2007 had negative impact on buyers' confidence. Property investment can be considered great for retirement plan but investors worry on present condition.

Please confirm that your email address is correct, so you can successfully receive this alert.
by Dan G. Blazer, M.D., Ph.D., and Judith C. Hays, R.N., Ph.D.; New York City, Oxford University Press, 1998, 237 pages, $39.95
This is a book that needed to be written. Mental health clinicians and trainees often have little exposure to the basic issues related to clinical research, such as hypothesis testing, trial design, sample selection, study bias, and the use of appropriate statistical procedures for particular sets of data. These issues often are not addressed, or at most are casually discussed, during training. Thus many clinicians do not have the background to critically evaluate reports in journals or presentations at scientific meetings.
Drs. Blazer and Hays set out to rectify this situation by developing a primer for the clinician and the trainee. They have largely succeeded, although the book asks the reader to spend the time required to learn a new lexicon and digest a series of new concepts.
Fortunately, the book is well written in a simple narrative style that is easy to follow. The volume grew out of a course on clinical research methods that the authors teach at Duke University School of Medicine, and its organization and format reflect that genesis. Each chapter deals with a particular topic of relevance, is well organized, and has "assignments" at the end—study questions, with full answers.
The overall focus is on the elements of clinical research—research that is patient based or population based. The authors provide an overview of epidemiological methods, constantly returning to relevant clinical questions. The book begins with a discussion of causal inference and the nature of the scientific method; the work of Popper and Koch is used as a base. Then, in a crucial chapter, the authors discuss how to read a study published in a scientific journal. They dissect the structure of a paper, from abstract to discussion. They help the reader get inside a paper and begin to see what should be included and what can be left out. Problems and flaws with published articles are discussed, as are examples of excellent, masterfully written articles.
In the middle section, on study design, the authors first define the language of clinical research: populations under study; samples and sampling frames; proportions, rates, and risks; incidence and prevalence; risk ratios; and odds ratios. Following that is a chapter on single-subject studies, to help the reader understand the strengths of various single-subject designs, and one on descriptive studies. Examples of surveys of psychiatric disorders are presented. Next, the authors delineate the methods employed in epidemiological studies, including sample identification and community interviewing, as well as the use of longitudinal and case-control studies. The section ends with an in-depth discussion of the design and implementation of a classic clinical trial, including issues of protection of human subjects, sample recruitment, and use of comparison groups.
The final section, on analysis and interpretation of results, begins with a discussion of the use of diagnostic tests and screening instruments. The concepts of sensitivity and specificity are addressed, as is the application of screening tests to community samples. The next chapter reviews methods employed in population genetics studies and the relationship of these studies to molecular genetics investigations; concepts of heritability and methods for determining heritability are reviewed. The final chapter provides an overview of analytic strategies for clinical and community research data.
No doubt, An Introduction to Clinical Research in Psychiatry is a demanding book. As a text for an introductory course on research methods, it would work beautifully. As a stand-alone book, it would be more of a challenge. But it is well worth reading. Anyone who spends the time to read the book and answer the study questions will obtain a solid grounding for reading the literature and for beginning to work in clinical research.
Dr. Green is director of the Commonwealth Research Center in the department of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and director of research administration at the Massachusetts Mental Health Center in Boston.

PLAYERS: Mike Morse, Adam LaRoche, Gio Gonzalez, Marshawn Lynch
TEAMS: Washington Nationals, Seattle Seahawks
TEAMS: Washington Nationals, Seattle Seahawks
The other shoe from the Adam LaRoche re-signing finally dropped: Washington traded Mike Morse to Seattle in a three-way deal with Oakland that nets them right-handed starter A.J. Cole in return. Cole, you'll recall, was one of the four prospect swapped for Gio Gonzalez one year ago. After an up-and-down year in low- and high-A with the A's, Cole has lost some of his luster, but he's only 21 and was recently rated as Oakland's third-best prospect. It's nice to have the bonus baby back. It's also sad to see Morse Code go, extraneous though his services may have become. He was a lot of fun these past two-plus years, especially in 2011 when the Nats were still in the Dark Ages and he had one of the best seasons in franchise history. Remember him partying. This deal also presents two interesting dilemmas: 1) Do the Nats continue to play Morse's at-bat song, A-Ha's "Take On Me," or is it 86′d? 2) Does Morse get to keep the Beast Mode moniker, considering Seattle has the original, Marshawn...

Valdosta -- Lowndes high school alum and NFL star Randall Godfrey holding his tenth annual camp in Valdosta today.
Over 250 kids are participating in the camp, but they're learning more than just football skills.
Chargers linebacker and former Lowndes star Randall Godfrey has been holding his football camp for kids ages 6 to 15 at the school for ten years.
The Vikings football team just won back-to-back state championships.
Godfrey says having NFL players out at the camp teaching the kids helps build the community.
"It's a way to give back," says Godfrey. "They're also learning football skills, position skills. This morning we went through a bunch of drills, and now we're just running wild and scrimmaging and letting the kids have a lot fun."
Camper Tyler Weeks says, "I'm learning about football and I came here last year."
Campers come back again and again to learn from NFL talent at a cost of just 25 dollars.
"It's relatively inexpensive for the kids and their parents," says Valdosta DT coach Rick Thomas, "but the experience they gain is priceless. It's priceless."
Godfrey says, "I don't look forward to writing one person a big check as a write-off. I give it all to kids."
Seven year-old Quay Riley has big goals.
"When I grow up, I want to be a champion," says Riley.
And the coaches at the camp are making sure kids like Quay have the opportunity to be champions away from the football field.
Thomas says, "I see kids, when they come to me, as a pile of coal, and my job is to take them from that pile of coal, and cultivate them and to mold them into a beautiful, immaculate diamond."
This is the last year of Godfrey's contract with the Chargers, and he says he'll continue playing after it expires, but only in Atlanta.
