Ben & Jerry's Homemade ice cream 7th annual Winter Festival is tomorrow, March 7.
Their factory tours will be free of charge and they will have games, ice cream (!), snow sculptures, food, sugar on snow (melted maple syrup poured over snow), and a gift sale.
Umiak Outfitters will be there offering snowshoe tours, along with food samplings from Cabot Cheese, Red Hen Bakery, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, and Cider House BBQ Restaurant.

Point Spread
Cheese and Bean Quesadillas ("Sudden Turnovers")
Habanero Cheddar and Black Bean Spread
Hot as a Torch! Jalapeno Poppers
Baked Jalapeno Poppers
Hot Broccoli-Cheddar Dip

|Unusually Good Sales in VT This Weekend
Somehow, long ago, the tradition of having super sales during deer season got started in VT. If you live here, you know what I mean. You see newspaper advertisements addressed to "deer season widows" whose husbands are off in the woods in pursuit of deer. The deer hunting season in this state is huge, and so is this kick off to the shopping season.
There are two super sales that you might be interested in as destinations or stop offs while traveling in Vermont this weekend.
One of the biggest sales is the Cabot Hosiery Company ("Darn Tough") annual sale in Northfield VT, just a few minutes drive from the state capital of Montpelier. The company has been holding this sale for 29 years and it is a big one. Cabot Hosiery makes socks for both indoor and outdoor wear. I plan to go tomorrow and load up on Merino wool socks.
I went to the Black Diamond sale a few years ago and was impressed with the great prices on outdoor wear, mostly winter jackets, pants, and hats. Black Diamond, located just outside Montpelier, has excellent good quality products.
Remember the famous line: "The more your buy, the more you save!" Our economy needs you. Well, actually, it needs your money.

|Ben & Jerry's Online Halloween Games
One of the games on the Ben & Jerry's Halloween website pages is this "Undead Smackdown" (or ""Whack-A-Ghoul") game that I wasted about ten minutes playing. Use your mouse button to move the shovel and left click to bring the shovel down. Have fun!
I know from experience in talking with our inn's guests that many of them check the Ben & Jerry's website before they travel to Vermont (the company's Waterbury VT factory is about ten minutes from our facility). It is a very entertaining website with a mix of some seriousness thrown in once in a while.
If you go to the website, you can check the Ben & Jerry's Halloween page to find a lot of information including the history of Halloween, seasonal recipes, crafts, coloring book pages, safety tips, and some games. Note: when you go to the page and click on the Jack O Lantern, your pop-up blocker may prevent it from working. On Firefox browsers, click the bar above the web page and then click "Allow Pop-ups from benjerry.com." Then you can click the Jack O Lantern again to get into the website's Halloween section. Look at each page carefully and run your cursor over the various items that will then lead you to other pages.

|VT Teddy Bear Presidential Poll Shows Surprising Results
The next leaders of the free world. God help us.
In my September 21 entry, I mentioned that the Vermont Teddy Bear Company was selling Obama and McCain teddy bears. Now that the Vice Presidential candidates have been announced, Vermont Teddy Bear has rounded out the ticket with their four bears.
I had mentioned that it would be interesting to know which bear ticket was selling the most. In fact, if you look at the company's website, you will see that several thousand people have cast their "votes." You can do the same.
I was surprised to see that the McCain/Palin ticket was winning handily by about 2:1 over the Obama/Biden team - that certainly goes counter to all the polls I have seen lately.
Visit the company's Vermont stores In Shelburne VT and Waterbury Center VT, or order online the bears of your favorite candidates and don't forget to vote on November 4.

|Vermont Fine Wood Furniture Festival in Woodstock
The Vermont Fine Furniture and Woodworking Festival is being held this weekend, Sept 27 and 28, in the central Vermont village of Woodstock. Look for the high school on Route 4 west of the village. Very good directions are on the website too.
The website also lists about 45 Vermont furniture and wood craftsmen including links to their websites. There are some great looking furniture being made here in Vermont so stop by the show if you can or shop from home if you cannot travel to Vermont this weekend.
If addition to the furniture festival, you'll get to visit Woodstock VT which is not only one of the prettiest villages in New England, I think it is one of the best looking in the country. It is located a few minutes east of Exit 1, Interstate 89 near White River Junction VT.
Bed by Walt Stanley, Brookside Woodworking. He writes an interesting blog too.

We are very pleased to announce that Dr. Randall Lockwood, Senior Vice President for Forensic Sciences and Anti-Cruelty Projects at the ASPCA, has been honored with an Achievement Award by the American Academy of Forensic Sciences.
The award was delivered at the Annual Scientific Meeting, held in Seattle this past February. Over the last 25 years, Dr. Lockwood has served as an expert on dog aggression, dog bite prevention, dog fighting, and the interactions between people and animals. He has given testimony in numerous trials involving cruelty to animals, and has written several books on the subject. In addition, his efforts to increase awareness of the connection between animal abuse and other forms of violence were profiled in the 1999 BBC documentary "The Cruelty Connection." He is an active leader of The Link Coalition, a network of animal welfare and human service professionals who focus on "The Link"—areas where animal cruelty, domestic violence, child abuse, and elder abuse intersect. His most recent book is this year's Animal Cruelty and Freedom of Speech: When Worlds Collide.
Dr. Lockwood has been with the ASPCA since 2005, and we thrilled and proud to congratulate him on this latest achievement.

- Author: Kathy Keatley Garvey
He died too soon, a life cut short by a disease he never knew he had.
It happened 14 years ago tomorrow. Chemical ecologist Sean Duffey (right), then professor and vice chair of the UC Davis Department of Entomology--and known for taking teaching, research, public service and administrative duties to exciting new levels--died May 21, 1997 of lung cancer. He was 53.
He left a legacy treasured by the faculty, students and staff, not to mention his family, friends and colleagues. Every day many pass by the "Au Revoir Sean Duffey" wall memorial on the third floor of Briggs Hall. The work of Davis sculptor Donna Billick (a self-described "20th century cave artist") and Davis calligraphy artist Marilyn Judson, it contains recollections of his life. It includes images of everything from the insects he studied, to the hat he wore, to a soccer ball he kicked.
And every May, the faithful place flowers there in his memory.
On Wednesday, May 25, part of that legacy will come to life in the form of one of his graduate students, Gary Felton (left), now professor and head of the Department of Entomology at Pennsylvania State University.
Felton will deliver the Thomas and Nina Leigh Distinguished Alumni Seminar on "Dialogues at the Plant-Herbivore Interface" at 6 p.m. in Ballroom B of the new UC Davis Conference Center, located across from the Mondavi Center.
The lecture is open to the public and will be preceded by a reception at 5 p.m. A buffet dinner for invited guests will follow Felton's talk.
Felton, professor and head of the Penn State Department of Entomology since 2000, received his doctorate in entomology from UC Davis in 1988. He did postdoctoral work at UC Davis from 1988 to 2000, and then joined the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, advancing to professor in 1998.
About his talk, Felton says: "Our understanding of induced resistance against herbivores has grown immeasurably during the last several decades. Based upon the emerging literature, I argue that induced resistance represents a continuum of phenotypes that is determined by the plant's ability to integrate multiple suites of signals of plant and herbivore origin."
"Herbivore-derived cues may be perceived by plants to elicit defensive responses, but herbivores may also partially evade plant defenses through a variety of secreted effectors. A more comprehensive model describing induced resistance is needed that illustrates the range of signals arising from early detection through herbivore feeding, and finally, through subsequent plant generations."
The seminar is named for noted cotton entomologist Thomas Frances Leigh (1923-1993), right, an international authority on the biology, ecology and management of arthropod pests affecting cotton production. During his 37-year UC Davis career, Leigh was based at the Kern County Shafter Research and Extension Center, also known as the U.S. Cotton Research Station. He researched pest and beneficial arthropod management in cotton fields, and host plant resistance in cotton to insects, mites, nematodes and diseases.
Leigh joined the UC Davis Department of Entomology in 1958, retiring in 1991 as an emeritus professor. However, like many entomologists, he continued to remain active in his research and collaboration until his death on Oct. 26, 1993.
Thomas Leigh, Sean Duffey and Gary Felton…three familiar faces in the world of entomology and all dedicated to learning, teaching and giving back. As poet laureate Maya Angelou so eloquently wrote: "When you learn, teach. When you get, give."
They've done just that.

Bright pink w/ slight shimmer
and adore them all! Love the color of each! Works well with my cream base! Glad to see they are animal friendly :) Get with primer as well! Hoping to order more soon!
Being a makeup artist and junkie I have tons of various eyeshadows from many brands. While I have a few urban decay they are not amongst my top brand. The pigment is good (but so are other brands) and the color is not easily blendable. Not to mention all of the glitter in most of their shades. Great for a teenager who don't use many colors on their eyelids and are fascinated by all that glitters. but i find that UD is pretty much a teenage line...nothing worn by adults.
I love this shadow, it's so glittery and pigmented! Very buildable too, can be worn for both day and night! I've had this shadow for years, had no problem with fallout or coming off my skin, it stays perfect, even without primer! A definite buy:D
I purchased Shattered because I wanted to experiment with teal-type shadow.
Cons- I dont care for it with my skin tone, its like a greenish blue with gold shimmer.
If worn dry, its super light and creases.
Its more spendy than its worth.
Pros- Worn wet, it has good color payoff & doesnt crease as much.
It looks better mixed with pink or purple shadow on me.
Uzi has long been one of my least favorite UD shadows, and when I heard it was being discontinued, I was honestly happy. With or without primer, it's a glittery, fallout-y mess. You WILL look like a disco ball wearing this (I had sparkles all over my eyes, cheeks, and clothes hours after putting this on).
It wears okay, but fades a good amount (like 2 or 3 times throughout the wear). However, it does wear away evenly, with no patchiness or creasing. It wasn't difficult to blend. The color is a frosty, shimmery white, but it is by no means "metallic," as UD described. However, they were spot on about the glitter being big-it's gritty and large, and honestly, gaudy.
I don't see this working well as a highlight because the glitter is far too large and not subtle. It'd probably be best used as an accent to a strong, theatrical look. Its too messy and lacking in pigment to be a reliable every-day wash of color or accent. It's a very disappointing and poorly executed shade.
(Read the full review on peakvolume.blogspot.com)
I have so many of these, I am not going to write individual reviews. Some of my favorites are Jones, Stray Dog, Sin, Blaze, and X, but there are others I really like. UD's old shadow formula was really nice and smooth, and even the glittery shades were very nice in spite of the fallout. I never liked the plastic token package as much as the aluminum manhole cover package of the original UD shadow singles, but what can you do? This version was incredibly easy to depot.
I own this color in the individual packaging and in the Naked palette, but I find that my individual has more of a sand color while the palette has more of a pink shade...but I love this color! It gives my eyelids a nice sheen and is very natural. By far my most favorite Urban Decay eye shadow ever.
Purple haze is great. A muted purple that isn't too in your face. Great for daytime or night looks, or just lazy "through it on and walk out the door" looks. Either way it's stunning. If you're into purple, I'd say pick this color up. And you can't beat the cute packaging, either.
I bought this shade b/c I just can't get enough of it! However, I would definitely recommend investing in an Urban Decay palette instead of the individual pods. But if you find yourself continuously using one particular shade then definitely buy it individually because you get more of it than the palette.

(L-R) Abigail Spencer, Leslie Mann, Nina Dobrev (Getty Images)
Walking around with paint splattered all over your outfit might sound like a fashion nightmare, but there are three stars who think just the opposite!
Nina Dobrev, Leslie Mann, and Abigail Spencer all stepped out in J. Mendel designs that closely resemble a Jackson Pollock painting. The three gals, who all stunned in different cuts and silhouettes, proved that what looks like an artist's disaster could really be a work of art.
The ready-to-wear look from the French atelier is described as "exploded-floral-print silk cady" and appears in five different designs within the collection. Each of the pieces range from $1,880 to $5,350.
Naturally, each star put their own spin on the multi-colored creation.
Spencer stepped out in one of the ready-to-wear styles featuring a demure tea length cut and a pleated bustier neckline. She kept the garish print at bay by adding a belt, which kept the painted portions strictly on the side of the frock. The "Suits" stunner, 32, finished off her prim appearance with a pair of simple black stilettos and a black clutch, but punched up the fun factor with a pop of color on her lips.
"This Is 40" star Leslie Mann, 41, finagled a custom-designed ball gown from the fashion house in order to attend the punk-themed 2013 Met Gala in New York City. Mann took the most dramatic approach (which was fitting considering the event) and paired her high-fashion ensemble with an oversized black necklace, an orange clutch, and a poufy updo. Her look was certainly a far cry from Dobrev's youthful style.
"The Vampire Diaries" hottie, 24, popped a pose in the collection's pantsuit at the 2013 Teen Choice Awards on Sunday. The trouser and blouse combo showed off her gorgeous décolletage and accentuated her mile-long legs. Dobrev's pick was also the cheapest of the looks with a $1,880 price tag. But her attire definitely didn't look like it was from the bargain bin, and the newly single actress polished off the daring outfit with black strappy sandals, a high ponytail, and a red clutch.
While there's no fair way to compare all three ensembles, there is certainly one lesson to be learned from this particular collection: What could look like an eyesore if it was hanging in a store may actually be a stunning red carpet-ready ensemble.

What does it take to be considered Human? What are the basic requirements?
Why are we human different from other animals? How do we know that we are human other than some one else telling us so?
Mar 23 2013: We are human due to our having reason, and the ability to use reason decipher between right and wrong, as Aristotle calls us rational animals. Also our ability to choose between what is right and what is wrong, or our free will, is the other component of our humanity. These both have to do with the nature of the human soul, which is divine in essence. There are characteristics of the human body that compose the human being that are different from animals, but that is not what makes us human.
W. Ying
Mar 20 2013: .
- 0
It is human DNA.Mar 13 2013: more and more, in this age of devotion to all things machine and digital, it is our capacity to make mistakes that makes us human. our unique ability to be flawed.Mar 13 2013: The ability to recognize potential and exploit it. Potential in this context should not be confused with Opportunity.Mar 13 2013: What I was hoping to address in the blog piece is what makes our species different to other species. Those differences, surely, are things that make us more human not less.
What I am suggesting is that we have developed a second channel for passing advantage to our offspring, besides biological evolution.
While other animals may have complex social structures—there may be an argument that the extent and level of interconnectedness among humans has no comparison in other species—I believe we are unique in the way we can pass both ideas and possessions down through generations.
For me the passing on of advantages is what shapes the world we live in. A simple example is the idea of property laws—not to mention the concept of law—which have at their core the idea that once we gain an object or some territory we can pass that on to our offspring.Mar 13 2013: Considering that our genome is almost exactly the same as the one of a chimp I'd say that the defining feature which makes us human is culture. If one can't use cuttlery properly, they are animals to me.
Mar 13 2013: You statement is true for male chimps and humans or female chimps and humans, 99%. But human men and women, that is the XX or XY, only share 98.4% of the same DNAMar 13 2013: What is this question related to in your mind?
Mar 13 2013: what is normal? and how is it being used to classify ourselves in society as wierdos and normals?
Mar 14 2013: Hi Thaddea, can you answer these questions? I'm really curious about your point of view.Mar 13 2013: Currently, Regret and the ability to see beyond the horizon, hopefully we will also gain the ability to not be so fixated on one type of system. We see this individually but collectively it turns to noise and the collective is very infantile at this junction in time.Mar 13 2013: Biologically a key defining difference is we can only reproduce with other humans at the appropriate times in our life cycle (unless there are after health issues)
I wonder how far back modern humans could reproduce with our ancestors. Probably could with the Neanderthals. Homo erectis? Homo habilis I doubt.
I suggest there is a continuum of human ancestors with less to more differences with other animals. At some point modern humans could not interbred with our ancestors making us distinct species
In a lot of ways we are not that different from other animals. Sexually reproduce, eat, sleep, bleed, breathe, bones, age, die. Just a supped up brain, language, culture and mobile phones.Mar 13 2013: IMO, having human DNA. Being born of human parents.
Mar 13 2013: I think Barry is right on this one, the biological definition of being human is pretty clear cut. Of course some humans have tried to twist that definition, usually to kill or mistreat others (genocide, slavery..)
Why are we human different from other animals?
In my humble opinion the big difference is that our species has developed a second channel for passing advantage to our offspring. I have written about that here.
How do we know that we are human other than some one else telling us so?
Knowing is complicated. Using words to describe being human assumes a shared cultural understanding of what the word 'human' means so in that sense someone else telling us they share the same meaning of the word as we do is important. However, like all mammals, we have a range of systems for detecting if another creature is of the same species as us. In a fundamental we know that we are human, and don't need to be told by anyone else.
Also, while others may be faster runners or better spellers than we are, we should know in that same fundamental sense that we are equal with others.
Mar 13 2013: i agree when yousaid " knowing is complicated. Using words to describe being human assumes a shared cultural understanding", however I would have used the word "agreement" instead of understanding.
I have alos asked the question of "How do we know other than by someone else telling us so?"
Mar 13 2013: We know lots of things without being told. For example people can detect if some foodstuffs are inedible using our sense of smell.
These systems we have are quite complex. For example the human sense of smell also seems to play a role in detecting if a potential mates immune system is complimentary.
If our senses can work at that level of detail we can be pretty sure that they will tell us we are human.Mar 13 2013: The blog piece only says that humans have an advantage of a complex social structure.
Don't other animals have complex social structures a well?
Remove the "advantage" and how are we less human?Mar 13 2013: Perhaps a combination of the following:
walking upright
the neo cortex and brain size
the use of a language
Here's what others have said:
Daniel Dennett, cognitive scientist: We are the first species that represents our reasons, and can reason with each other.
Patricia Churchland, neuroethicist: The structure of how the human brain is arranged intrigues me. Are there unique brain structures? As far as we can understand, it's our size that is unique. What we don't find are other unique structures. There may be certain types of human-specific cells — but as for what that means, we don't know. It's important not only to focus on us, to compare our biology and behavior to other animals.
Antonio Damasio, neuroscientist: The critical unique factor is language. Creativity. The religious and scientific impulse. And our social organization, which has developed to a prodigious degree. We have a record of history, moral behavior, economics, political and social institutions. We're probably unique in our ability to investigate the future, imagine outcomes, and display images in our minds. I like to think of a generator of diversity in the frontal lobe.
Marvin Minsky, artificial intelligence pioneer: We do something other species can't: We remember. We have cultures, ways of transmitting information.
Nikolas Rose, sociologist: Language and representation. We are the kind of creatures that ask those questions of ourselves. And we believe science can help answer. We've become creatures that think of ourselves as essentially biological — and I think we're more than biological creatures. I'm not sure biology has answers.
Mar 13 2013: I like this scientifical response from you. yet I agree that biology does not have all answers.Mar 13 2013: At my house ... not picking up your cloths ... being rude .... not closing the door ... bad hygein habits ... body sounds ... or anything that demonstrates you have bad parents would cast you into the animal category.Mar 13 2013: Mistakes and learning from them.
Mar 13 2013: Yeah, on a mental growth level I can see where you are coming from.
Mar 13 2013: Will you care to explain your comment please?
Edited addition after 15 hours of my question. I am asking this because I have a feeling you are saying that I am a retard who hails from a poor, backward and corrupt third world country. I may be mistaken also so want your comment clarified. Thanks.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I FINALLY FOUND MY "NAVY" AGAIN!!! You have no idea how happy you've made me. I've been looking for years on Long Island, NY and haven't been able to find it. Someone suggested that I go online and see if I could find it there, and your site was the first one that popped up. I haven't been this happy in a loooong time. PLEASE, don't ever take this off your site. Thank you for making my day! Susan

Please don't ever stop carrying Navy for Women by Dana. I've worn this cologne for many years and still get compliments when I'm wearing it, even from complete strangers, men and women. It has a fresh, clean scent and I hope I never have to search for my "signature" scent again...

Navy Shave Balm has a nice fragrance and has a cooling effect on skin. Also works well on dry hands and feet.
Written by Rory on March 11, 2014Read Review details ►
I've used Navy for many years. I prefer the body mist as it is light and refreshing and the lasting power is great. One time at the doctor's office,a lady with a very fussy baby had to go to the bathroom really bad and I offered to hold him for her. After a few minutes,he stopped crying and fell asleep on my shoulder. She came out and was pleasantly surprised when I told her; "I guess your son loves my fragrance,which is Navy."

Opinion: Sandy Reminds Us Of The Need For FEMA And That Romney Would Shut It Down
Romney was asked at a presidential debate whether FEMA should be shut down in light of the deficit. Romney replied that FEMA should "absolutely" be shut down. He was asked specifically if that included disaster relief. He replied that it was "immoral" to provide such relief in the face of "larger debts", emphasizing that "it makes no sense at all" to have such programs.
Opinion: As Hurricane Isaac Threatens The GOP Continues To Party
As Hurricane Isaac threatens the Gulf again, we will see if Katrina and Isaac serve as bookends of GOP hostility to federal disaster relief. An odd stance for a party that claims to "choose life" while watching people die in natural disasters rather than provide an adequate response.

The Top 10 Most Hated Companies in America: 2013 Version
Which brands or companies come to mind when you think of the 10 Most Hated Companies in America? Write down your 10 Most Hated Companies & we will compare them later on. Even if you were unable to complete the list or didn't try it doesn't matter as today your getting bailed out by Marketwatch who has a list of the 10 most hated companies in America.
10 Most Hated Companies
- J.C. Penney
- Dish Network
- T-Mobile USA
- Citigroup
- Research In Motion
- American Airlines
- Nokia
- Sears Holding Corp.
- Hewlett-Packard
Individual Analysis on Each Company That Made The Not Top Ten
1. If you ask me about this list I am quite shocked. Is J.C. Penney really the most hated company in America? I know where not to go back to now.
2. Second on the list was Dish Network and this one I can understand as if there is anything that frustrates it's when the tv channels, DVR, something isn't working and of course it happens during all the crucial moments whether it's a key sports game, season finale, you name it. So yeah I'm not surprised to see Dish at number two, as they must get endless amounts of complaints day after day.
3. Third went to T-Mobile USA and honestly I've never used T-Mobile don't think any of my friends or family do either so I've never heard anything bad or good to defend them on, sorry.
4. Now the fourth spot is interesting, Facebook. Facebook is like the cocky jock in High School. Lots of people love him, but even more hate him. Also with recent studies showing how Facebook irritates the daily life of most Americans by making them feel down on themselves after seeing their friends traveling around the world and doing all these great things while they're stuck at home. Maybe it needs an update Zuckerburg.
5. Fifth on the list is Citigroup and what's not to hate, they are a greedy, overzealous bank that has a CEO everyone hates and not a great PR Image which all combined puts them at #5 on this list.
6. Sixth on the list is everyone's least favorite tech company, Research in Motion aka RIM or as of today they will be switching their name to BlackBerry. Known for the Crackberry and for running an ineffective business for quite some time guess this is what now leads you to becoming America's #6 most hated company.
7. Number seven goes to American Airlines. Do we even have to get into this one or do we all know why? From baggage screw-ups, to delayed flights, charging to check bags, pricy tickets, the list goes on and on of all the terrible things American Airlines does as a company and then you look at Southwest, a mirror opposite image and you then know why they deserve to join this list.
8. Number eight is Nokia, well shitty phones will never please the customer so this one doesn't' surprise me one bit.
9. Coming in ninth is Sears Holdings who from their ridiculous wait times for service trips, bad warranties, and weakening brand deserve to have a seat on this list.
10. Coming in at number ten is Hewlett-Packard and why to they make this list? Because there business is crumpling, their product is sub-par, and they are doing nothing to fix it.
What companies do you think deserve to be on the most hated list? We want to hear your opinions so please share them on both our Facebook Fan Page & Twitter! Also don't be shy to leave a comment below!

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection — sometimes referred to as SCAD — is a rare emergency condition that occurs when a tear forms in one of the blood vessels in the heart.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) can slow or block blood flow to the heart, causing a heart attack, abnormalities in heart rhythm and sudden death.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) tends to affect people ages 30 to 50, though it can occur at any age. People who develop spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) are often healthy, and many don't have risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) can lead to sudden death if it isn't diagnosed and treated promptly. For this reason, seek emergency attention if you experience heart attack signs and symptoms — even if you think you aren't at risk for a heart attack.
Signs and symptoms of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) include:
If you experience chest pain or suspect you're having a heart attack, immediately call 911 or your local emergency number. If you don't have access to emergency medical services, have someone drive you to the nearest hospital. Drive yourself only as a last resort.
It's not clear what causes spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD).
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) causes a superficial tear inside an artery. When the inner layers of the artery separate from the outer layers, blood can pool in the area between the layers. The pressure of the pooling blood can make a short tear much longer. And blood trapped between the layers can form a blood clot.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) may slow blood flow through the artery to the heart, which makes the heart work harder. Or blood flow through the artery can be completely stopped, causing heart muscle to die (heart attack).
Doctors and researchers have found some similarities among people who have experienced spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). It's not yet clear what role these factors play in causing the disease. Common factors include:
In some people, spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) can occur again, despite successful treatment. It may recur soon after the initial spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) or years later.
Doctors are studying why spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) recurs and who is most likely to experience a recurrence.
In most cases, spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an emergency situation. If you experience chest pain or suspect you're having a heart attack, immediately call 911 or your local emergency number.
In the days after your initial diagnosis, you're likely to have many questions about your situation. Because meetings with doctors can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to prepare by writing down your questions. Order them from most important to least important, in case time runs out.
Some questions you may want to ask include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask other questions that occur to you.
Tests and procedures used to diagnose spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) involve creating pictures of your arteries to look for signs of abnormalities.
During a set of procedures called cardiac catheterization and coronary angiogram, doctors inject a special dye into your arteries so they'll show up on imaging tests. To get the dye to your arteries, doctors insert a long, thin tube (catheter) into an artery — usually in your leg or arm — and thread the tube to the arteries in the heart.
Once the dye is released, doctors use X-rays to create pictures of the arteries. The X-rays may show abnormalities in an artery that help confirm spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD).
After coronary angiogram, other tools may be inserted through the catheter and into the affected artery to create pictures. These imaging tests may include:
The images may show abnormalities in an artery that help doctors confirm spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and gather information to guide treatment decisions.
During a cardiac computerized tomography (CT) angiography scan, you lie on a table inside a doughnut-shaped machine. An X-ray tube inside the machine rotates around your body and collects images of your heart and chest, which can show abnormalities in your arteries. Cardiac CT angiography may be used in addition to other tests and procedures.
The goal of treatment for spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is to repair the tear in your damaged artery and restore blood flow to your heart.
Which treatments are best for you will depend on your situation, including the size of the tear in your artery and its location, as well as any signs or symptoms you're experiencing. Whenever possible, doctors allow the damaged artery to heal on its own, rather than repairing it through invasive procedures.
After spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), your doctor may recommend medications to restore blood flow to your heart. Medications can include:
For some people, medications may relieve symptoms of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). In these situations, it may be possible to forgo further treatment. If chest pain or other symptoms persist, other treatments may be needed.
If your spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) has blocked blood flow to your heart or if medications don't control your chest pain, your doctor may recommend placing a tiny mesh tube (stent) inside your artery to hold it open. A stent helps restore blood flow to your heart.
To position the stent, doctors insert a long, thin tube (catheter) into an artery — usually in your leg or arm — and thread the tube to the arteries in the heart. The catheter is guided to your damaged artery using X-rays or other imaging tests.
A wire with a deflated balloon is passed through the catheter to the tear in the artery. The balloon is then inflated, expanding the stent against your artery walls. The stent is left in place to hold the artery open.
If other treatments haven't worked or if you have more than one tear in an artery, your doctor may recommend surgery to create a new way for blood to reach your heart.
Coronary artery bypass grafting is a procedure that involves removing a blood vessel from another part of your body, such as your leg. That blood vessel is stitched into place so that it diverts blood flow around your damaged artery.
After your treatment for spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), your doctor may recommend other types of care to help you recover and to prevent other health problems. These may include:
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) can be an unexpected and shocking diagnosis. The condition can cause serious and scary symptoms, and it often affects people who may have few risk factors for heart disease.
Each person finds his or her own way of coping with a diagnosis. In time you'll find what works for you. Until then, you might try to:

Why Choose Mayo Clinic
What Sets Mayo Clinic Apart
Mayo Clinic works with hundreds of insurance companies and is an in-network provider for millions of people. In most cases, Mayo Clinic doesn't require a physician referral. Some insurers require referrals or may have additional requirements for certain medical care. All appointments are prioritized on the basis of medical need.
Doctors trained in cardiovascular diseases, cardiovascular surgery and medical genetics diagnose and treat people who have spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. Staff in the Women's Heart Clinic also may treat people who have spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD).
For appointments or more information, call Cardiovascular Diseases at 507-284-3994 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central time, Monday through Friday or complete an online appointment request form. No physician referral is necessary. Cardiologists generally can see most patients within two weeks after their appointment requests, and often cardiologists can see patients within a week or less after the appointment request. Patients with urgent issues can usually be seen within 24 hours after their requests. In emergencies, people are directly transferred to inpatient hospital care.
See information on patient services at the three Mayo Clinic locations, including transportation options and lodging.
Mayo Clinic doctors trained in heart conditions (cardiologists), hereditary conditions (medical genetics) and others research genetics, causes, diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). Mayo Clinic doctors have studied new methods to identify and recruit people for research studies. For example, through a disease-specific social media network, researchers successfully identified and recruited people who had spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) to participate in research. This study continues to be used as a model for developing virtual multicenter disease registries in research studies.
Using methods from that study, researchers are coordinating a multicenter SCAD registry and SCAD DNA biobank. This effort is aimed at identifying best treatments, diagnostic tests and causes of SCAD. In 2012, researchers published the largest case series to date of the care and outcomes of SCAD patients, detailing almost 90 people who had SCAD and were treated at Mayo Clinic.

André Chéret worked as a printer, before he pursued a career as an artist. He started out illustrating cinema posters, and eventually cooperated on several military magazines during his military service. Back in civil life in 1961, he began illustrating for Radar magazine and took on the comics 'Rock l'Invincible' and 'Monica, Hôtesse de l'Air' in Mireille.
A year later, he began a longtime collaboration with the magazine Vaillant. There, he took over the 'Bob Mallard' series from Francisco Hidalgo between 1963 and 1969. In addition, he drew the aviation comic 'Karl' in J2 Jeunes, as well as 'Vidocq' in Télé-Feuilleton and several short stories in Francs-Jeux.
Bob Mallard (Pif Gadget #9, 21/04/1969)
His most famous creation, the caveman 'Rahan', was launched in Pif Gadget (the former Vaillant) in 1969. The series, written by Roger Lécureux, was a big hit, and got its own periodical at the publishing house Vaillant in 1971.
From 1973, Chéret was also present in Tintin, with 'Domino' with text by Greg and later Jean Van Hamme. He also appeared in Les Visiteurs du Mercredi with 'Anaël' (text Sacha) and in Spirou with 'Michel Brazier' (text by Charlier).
At the publishing house Hachette, he released albums like 'Gavroche' (1983, text Jean Ollivier) and 'Yannick Noah' (1984, text Claude Gendrot). From 1982 to 1985, he cooperated on the collection 'L'Encyclopédie en Bandes Dessinées' with publisher Philippe Auzou. For the same publisher, he worked on the science-fiction series 'Proteo' with Jean-Gérard Imbar. He began the series 'Ly-Noock' with text by Rodrigue at Éditions Joker in 2003.

- Sungha Jung: Sweet Child O'Mind -_
What grade would you give our draft?
I would give it a B+. Not a sexy draft, but very solid. We drafted our needs.
I'll give it a "B".
If we end up trading for Carson Palmer, then I'll give it an "A".
Id give it a B.
Merge this please.
to be honest we drafted for need, and even if you thought or felt we needed a QB, we certainly needed a RB/C/WR with speed/TE/CB/and DT. when you draft for need and you still get quality players that can come in and contribute and or start thier first season, you've done well.
"Now when I go to the bathroom I find out who my friends are." - Jake Scott after both broken hands were in casts following the 1972 season
Oh man, we are riding the same wave. I just posted the same poll. Merge!
Solid B
Don't like the vet FA QB options enough to justify not taking a rookie QB. Palmer is washed up. VY, Orton and especially Kolb will cost us 2012 picks. I'd frankly rather just stick with Henne.
Didn't like passing on Mark Ingram at 15 for C/G.
Pouncey will be solid but failed FA Centers like Grove, Incognito and Berger count against this pick for this regime.
Didn't like trading up for Daniel Thomas (especially when Mallett was still there). Fear we over-paid for Thomas b/c we still want to run the stupid wildcat.
Liked the Gates, Clay and Wilson picks.
Didn't like that we had so few picks from trading up and still didn't get the QB.
A+ draft would've been.....
Ingram at 15 and then trading up in the 2nd, like we did, but taking Mallett instead of Thomas. That would've given us a stud RB and the best arm in the draft to at least gamble on. Oh well...

Valtteri Bottas hailed an increase in confidence in his FW36 for his fourth place on the Spanish Grand Prix grid.
The Williams driver came to the fore in Saturday's qualifying at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
Clocking a 1:26.632 on his final flying lap, Bottas clinched fourth place on the starting grid, his best position this season.
It was a great recovery after finishing outside the top ten at the end of Friday's running, some three seconds off the pace.
"It has been quite a tough weekend up until now," he said.
"I had to build a lot of confidence but it all came together when it mattered and I managed to get a good lap.
"We have made some set-up changes since FP3 and they worked well but it will be even better in the race.
"It's difficult to overtake here and so qualifying is important."
The Williams driver is predicting a closely-fought battle behind the Mercedes as those behind fight it out for the final podium position.
He added: "It's going to be a close race behind the Mercedes and so I am really looking forward to tomorrow."

Tropical tropospheric trends
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!
Some old-timers will remember a series of 'bombshell' papers back in 2004 which were going to "knock the stuffing out" of the consensus position on climate change science (see here for example). Needless to say, nothing of the sort happened. The issue in two of those papers was whether satellite and radiosonde data were globally consistent with model simulations over the same time. Those papers claimed that they weren't, but they did so based on a great deal of over-confidence in observational data accuracy (see here or here for how that turned out) and an insufficient appreciation of the statistics of trends over short time periods.
Well, the same authors (Douglass, Pearson and Singer, now joined by Christy) are back with a new (but necessarily more constrained) claim, but with the same over-confidence in observational accuracy and a similar lack of appreciation of short term statistics.
Previously, the claim was that satellites (in particular the MSU 2LT record produced by UAH) showed a global cooling that was not apparent in the surface temperatures or model runs. That disappeared with a longer record and some important corrections to the processing. Now the claim has been greatly restricted in scope and concerns only the tropics, and the rate of warming in the troposphere (rather than the fact of warming itself, which is now undisputed).
The basis of the issue is that models produce an enhanced warming in the tropical troposphere when there is warming at the surface. This is true enough. Whether the warming is from greenhouse gases, El Nino's, or solar forcing, trends aloft are enhanced. For instance, the GISS model equilibrium runs with 2xCO2 or a 2% increase in solar forcing both show a maximum around 20N to 20S around 300mb (10 km):
The first thing to note about the two pictures is how similar they are. They both have the same enhancement in the tropics and similar amplification in the Arctic. They differ most clearly in the stratosphere (the part above 100mb) where CO2 causes cooling while solar causes warming. It's important to note however, that these are long-term equilibrium results and therefore don't tell you anything about the signal-to-noise ratio for any particular time period or with any particular forcings.

At T+31 seconds in the launch of this Pioneer probe, the hydraulics system of the first stage of the booster developed a problem that eventually culminated in complete loss of pressure at T+213 seconds, only 4 seconds prior to main-engine cutoff of the first stage. Although second-stage performance was nominal, there was no way to compensate for the large pointing error introduced by the malfunctions in the first stage.
With the booster veering off course, ground control sent a command to destroy the vehicle at T+484 seconds. Pioneer-E was the last in a series of probes intended for studying interplanetary space from heliocentric orbit. An additional payload on the Thor-Delta L was a Test and Training Satellite (TETR) to test the Apollo ground tracking network.

Recipe by NICDELIS
"This batter makes light, fluffy, and delicious pancakes. I have been making them for years and everyone that tries them wants the recipe."

1 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons
white sugar
2 teaspoons
baking powder
1/2 teaspoon
1 1/4 cups
1 tablespoon
I tried this recipe this morning for my son and I and they were wonderful!! I especially loved the fact that the ingredients were things I already had in my pantry. No "fancy" ingredients that I would have to substitute. But, I did use 1 cup rice milk and 1/4 cup water instead of 1 1/4 cup water. I found that spreading the batter evenly with the back of a spoon really enabled the pancakes to cook evenly and not stay uncooked in the center. Wonderful recipe. And to the reviewer who stated that just because this was a good vegan subtitute for "normal pancakes" that it wasn't worth 5 stars, I would like to disagree. I don't think a regular buttermilk pancake is 5 star cuisine. I feel that vegan recipes are just just as good, if not better than "regular" food. They are much kinder to your health, the planet, and the animals who would have suffered for that buttermilk. I think this compares to the best. 5 stars.
I had to add a little bit of soy milk to the batter to make these spread properly on the griddle. I would suggest pouring small amounts of the batter onto the griddle to make flat pancakes. Otherwise they turn out too thick and not cooked properly. I tried these with and without chocolate chips and both were good. However, the plain pancakes had a strangely buttery flavor that was very nice. Just because these are a good vegan substitute for normal pancakes, doesn't mean they are worth 5 stars. Regular buttermilk pancakes are worth 5 stars so we should always compare foods to the best, not just rate them 5 stars because they are "good enough" for vegans. So "5 star vegan" but "3 star universally"

i appreciate the effort, but these aren't true vegan. switch up the white sugar with raw sugar and you've got it true vegan. i'm not vegan but my sister is, and she won't go near white processed sugar because of the way it's processed....
These were very good pancakes. I picked the recipe simply because they do not include egg which my son is allergic to. After making the batter I thought it was too thick to actually make "fluffy" pancakes but I was wrong. They came out very fluffy. Also, I thought when making the batter that there was way to much sugar but added it all anyway. I'm glad I did. They were sweet but not everly so. Thanks for a great tasting and simple to make recipe. Will make these often.
The first time I made these they turned out horrible, but I'm glad I gave it another try. The second time around they were pretty good. I added some vanilla and cinnamon like I always do to pancakes for added flavor. I figured out that these will not get the color of regular pancakes, so if you wait around for them to get golden brown expect to have hockey pucks for breakfast. All in all these were good with a little tweaking. Thanks for the recipe!
AWESOME! That's what my family says when I tell them we're making pancakes. Finally, a basic recipe that we can easily convert to our alkaline nutrition lifestyle (i.e., no soy, wheat, etc.). My subs: spelt flour (1 1/2C), date sugar or dark agave syrup, himalayan salt, hemp oil, and no oil on our hot griddle (350^F). For each teaspoon of baking powder, I always sub 1/4 tsp baking soda and 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice. Sprinkle a few fruit pieces on top after pouring for a treat. We also use the pancakes at supper with onions and green peppers sprinkled. Fluffy and delicious! Yum yum!!
Very good recipe. I used whole wheat flour instead and added 1/4 more flour to make the batter thicker. Definitely will make them again.
Awesome vegan recipe! I don't usually bother to review recipes, but these are too good not to! Added cinnamon and a bit of vanilla. Delicious.

Come read with our specially trained reading dogs. They are here in the children's area every Saturday from 11AM - 12PM. These special dogs love to hear stories read to them by children. Children earn a new book on their 7th visit and they can keep earning them all year long!!! Sponsored by 4 PAWS.
