In the early stages of cardiovascular disease, treatment typically focuses on lifestyle changes. These lifestyle changes are aimed at reversing, slowing, or stopping the progression of the disease. If lifestyle changes are not effective, your doctor may recommend that you take medicine. Surgery may be needed in more severe cases.
Lifestyle Changes
Your doctor may recommend that you make these lifestyle changes:
- Become a nonsmoker. —If you smoke, talk to your doctor about strategies to quit. There are many options, like online programs, smoking cessation drugs, and counseling.
- Eat healthy foods. — Changing your diet can help reduce your risk factors, such as high cholesterol , high blood pressure , and excess body weight. Your doctor may also advise you to eat a low-fat diet and a low-sodium diet.
- Become more active. —Even though you have been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease, exercise is still important to your overall health. Work closely with your doctor to create a safe exercise program for you.
- Drink only in moderation. —This means drinking no more than one alcoholic beverage if you are a woman, and no more than two alcoholic beverages per day if you are a man.
- Maintain a healthy weight.—Maintaining a healthy weight can help keep your cardiovascular disease under control. If you need to lose weight, talk with your doctor, who can teach you safe strategies to lose weight.
Medicines are often used alone or in combination to treat or control cardiovascular conditions. Talk to your doctor about side effects and possible interactions with food, herbs and supplements, and other medicines that you are taking.
The following list provides information on medicines that your doctor may prescribe if you have been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease.
These drugs work to stabilize the electrical conduction system of the heart. Your doctor will decide which type of medicine to prescribe depending on the type and severity of your arrhythmias , your symptoms, and your overall health.
The different classes of antiarrhythmics include:
- Sodium channel blockers (eg, amiodarone, propafenone)
- Beta blockers (eg, acebutolol, propranolol)
- Action-potential prolonging agents (eg, sotalol)
- Calcium channel blockers (eg, verapamil)
These medicines alleviate or prevent angina . Antianginals does this by helping to restore the balance between the heart's supply and demand of oxygen.
- Nitrates and nitrites (eg, nitroglycerin)
- Beta blockers (eg, acebutolol, propranolol)
- Calcium channel blockers (eg, nifedipine, amlodipine)
Anticoagulants are used to prevent stroke and heart attack in people who are at an increased risk due to heart conditions or heart surgery. Anticoagulants prevent clots from forming or inhibit existing clots from growing. But, these medicines cannot dissolve clots that already exist.
Examples of anticoagulants include:
- Warfarin (eg, Coumadin)
- Heparin
Medications to Treat Heart Failure
These medicines are designed to increase the amount of blood the heart can eject with each beat. Your doctor may prescribe one or a combination of these medicines:
- Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (eg, enalapril, ramipril)
- Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) (eg, candasartan, valsartan)
- Beta blockers (eg, bisoprolol, metoprolol)
- Inotropic agents (eg, digoxin, digitoxin)
- Loop diuretics (eg, furosemide, bumetanide)
Thrombolytic Agents
Thrombolytic agents are used to dissolve clots that have formed in blood vessels. They are administered during heart attacks to dissolve the clot and restore blood flow to the affected heart muscle.
Examples of thrombolytic agents include:
- Streptokinase
- Anistreplase
Other Medications
Most of the medicines used to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease are also used in its treatment. These include:
- High blood pressure medicine
- Cholesterol-lowering drugs
- Anti-diabetic medicine
- Antiplatelet medicine
Surgical or nonsurgical procedures are often necessary to treat cardiovascular conditions. Some may be scheduled electively while others are performed urgently in response to a cardiovascular event or results from a diagnostic procedure that indicate a cardiovascular event is imminent.
There are a range of procedures and surgeries that may be needed to treat cardiovascular disease.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a bulge in the portion of the aorta where it passes though the abdomen carrying blood to the abdominal organs, pelvis, and legs. Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair , which involves removal of the blood clot in the aneurysm and repair of the aorta wall, is done when an AAA grows too large or ruptures. In some situations, a stent (wire mesh) is inserted into the aorta to treat the aneurysm.
Cardioversion is done to correct an abnormal heartbeat. When the arrhythmia is not imminently dangerous or uncomfortable, cardioversion can be done gradually with antiarrhythmic medicines. If your condition is less stable, prompt electrical cardioversion is necessary. This is done by delivering an electrical charge through electrodes or paddles placed on the chest. This causes a brief interruption in the heart beat, giving the conduction system a chance to reset itself.
Carotid Endarterectomy
Carotid endarterectomy is used to remove plaque from the carotid artery, which carries blood to the brain. This procedure is often done to reduce the risk of a stroke in patients who have had transient ischemic attacks . The artery on either side is cut open, cleaned, and repaired with sutures. In some situations, a stent is inserted into the carotid artery to treat the blocked artery.
Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty is used to restore blood flow in a blocked coronary artery. It is done during a cardiac catheterization procedure in which a balloon at the tip of the catheter is quickly inflated and deflated to open the vessel. Often, a stent is inserted into the vessel to keep it from narrowing again in the future.
Coronary Stenting
Coronary stenting is done along with coronary angioplasty. Once a catheter with a balloon at the tip is inserted into a blocked vessel, a stent is placed at the tip of the catheter. The balloon is inflated, opening up the blocked vessel, and also expanding the stent. The stent, which is sometimes medicated with anticoagulant medicine (blood thinners), remains in the blood vessel to prevent it from narrowing again in the future.
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is used to restore blood flow to the heart, particularly if there are severe or multiple blockages in several coronary arteries. In this procedure, surgeons reroute the blood flow around the blockages by grafting vessels from another part of the body into the coronary circulation.
Femoropopliteal Bypass Surgery
Similar to a CABG procedure, femoropopliteal bypass surgery is used to bypass a blocked artery in the leg, restoring proper blood flow to the lower leg and foot. Doctors use a vein from another part of the body or an artificial vessel to graft around the blocked artery.
Heart Valve Replacement
During heart valve replacement , damaged valves (that are either too stiff to allow blood to flow freely or too leaky to keep blood flowing in one direction) are replaced with artificial or transplanted valves. Doctors do open-heart surgery to remove the damaged valve and suture in the replacement valve.
There is another type of surgery called transcatheter aortic valve replacement. This also involves replacing a damaged valve. But this is minimally invasive surgery that involves inserting the replacement valve through a small incision in the chest or through an artery in the leg.
Heart-lung Transplant
Heart-lung transplant is used to remove extremely diseased and damaged lungs and heart and to replace them with healthy organs donated by someone who has died. This is most commonly done on people with severe pulmonary hypertension. During this procedure, the doctors divert the patient's circulation to a heart-lung machine, which takes over the functions of those organs. They then remove the patient's lungs and most of the heart and replace them with the donor lungs and heart, Finally, the surgeons connect the donor heart and lungs to the patient's blood vessels, detach the heart-lung machine, and restore the patient's natural circulation.
Heart Transplant
A heart transplant is done to replace a diseased and damaged heart with a healthy heart donated by someone who has died. It is usually reserved for patients whose heart failure is life-threatening and when other treatments have failed. During a heart transplant, the patient's own circulation is rerouted to a heart-lung machine. All except the back wall of the upper chamber of the patient's heart is removed. The donor heart is attached, connected to the patient's blood vessels, and the heart-lung machine is disconnected.
Pacemaker Insertion
A pacemaker insertion is needed when the body's natural pacemaker no longer works properly. The artificial pacemaker maintains the normal heartbeat by automatically sending electrical impulses to the heart when it detects an abnormal rhythm. It is inserted through an incision beneath the collarbone. Wires from the pacemaker are then inserted through a vein to reach the heart.
Biventricular Pacemaker
This is a treatment for heart failure that uses a three-lead biventricular pacemaker. This type of pacemaker sends tiny electrical impulses to the heart muscle to coordinate (resynchronize) the pumping of the chambers of the heart, improving the heart's pumping efficiency. Both ventricles are paced to contract at the same time. This can reduce the symptoms of heart failure.
Implantable Defibrillator
An implantable defibrillator is similar to a pacemaker in that it is implanted to correct an abnormal heartbeat. But where a pacemaker generally corrects heartbeats that are too slow, a defibrillator corrects heartbeats that are too fast. In particular, the defibrillator intervenes with an instantaneous pulse of electricity to reset the heart beat when it detects a life-threatening arrhythmia (called ventricular fibrillation ). The defibrillator is implanted during a minor surgical procedure.

Gallery: The Nautilus – Giant Snail-Shaped Home Fit for a Family
The Nautilus, designer Javier Senosiain's bizarre, snail-shaped dwelling, is a mind-bending union of artistic experimentation and simplified living. Inspired by the work of Gaudí and Frank Lloyd Wright, Senosiain has brought to Mexico City another sparkling example of what he calls "Bio-Architecture" — the idea that buildings based on the natural principles of organic forms bring us back to local history, tradition and cultural roots, in turn creating harmony with nature.
Perched above the smoggy city, this giant mollusk is home to Magali and Fernando Mayorga and their two sons Allan and Josh. Upon entering the Mayorga's home, one must first pass through the main entrance – a door set inside a large stain glass wall – into the living room where the plant-covered floor is separated by long narrow pathways that run along side an artificial stream. The hole punched doors located in the rear of the main space lead to two small cavernous rooms for the boys, while the master bedroom sweeps across the back of the structure.
The glittering shell-like paint frames the tongue shaped furniture protrusions that grow from the surrounding walls. Each element has been carefully chosen to coincide with the organic theme of the building, and as Senosiain describes, "This home's social life flows inside The Nautilus without any division, a harmonic area in three dimensions where you can notice the continuous dynamic of the fourth dimension when moving in spiral over the stairs with a feeling of floating over the vegetation."
A notable eco-factor of this unconventional home is that it's constructed of a sprayable ceramic called Grancrete. This material is stronger than concrete, fire resistant and provides good insulation in both hot and cold climates. The spiral shaped design, material and construction methods used to build The Nautilus make it earthquake-friendly and easy to maintain.
This Bio-Architecture reminds us that we too are organic beings, and maybe what we all need is to get a little more down to earth.

You can set fire to a Michael Reynolds home and it will burn toxic gases, since he uses old tires wood studs all adds to the fuel of the fire. His homes are not very efficient, especilally in hot areas, if you like to fry in the summer. Tires are not green nor is a lot of what he uses.

I'm one of those individuals that has a real hard time throwing just about any thing in the scrap bin. In fact if you ever let me get around your scrap bin you probably ought to keep a close eye on me because, odds are, I'll most likely try and poach some thing out of it.
Any way, every now and then I put stuff like what's in the following pictures together and hand them out. A lot of times I'll write my name and phone number on them and leave them on the counters of places I do business at. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of this program over the years.

text: Slutever is the self-described "shit-fi" duo of Philadelphians Rachel Gagliardi and Nicole Snyder. "No Offense" comes off Slutever's "Pretend To Be Nice" 7″, which they released in March of last year. The release was put out by Bantic Media, which is a student-run artist services group at Drexel University; it's also where the release was recorded. Aside from a previous EP release, 2010′s more abrasive Sorry I'm Not Sorry, Slutever hasn't put out any other recordings, but it seems like they're playing pretty actively throughout the east coast. Maybe one of these days they'll stop by our neck of the woods.

If preening made a sound, you could hear it from President Obama's reelection headquarters all across the land.
And if eye-rolling could be heard it would reverberate from Mitt Romney's Boston headquarters and deafen legions of unsuspecting citizens.
Obama's team preens because it is certain it will win. Top advisers seriously entertain a question about how early on Tuesday night Obama's victory will be declared, demurring only that precision eludes but, in the words of campaign manager Jim Messina, Chicago hopes it will be "as early as possible."
By its own determination, Obama's team believes it will have banked so much early vote in key states as to make Romney's Election Day vote deficit virtually impossible to make up. Messina contends that Romney will need to win the following percentages on Election Day to overcome Obama's projected early vote lead: 65 percent in North Carolina; 59 percent in Iowa and Colorado; 58 percent in Nevada; 55 percent in Florida and Ohio; and 52 percent in Wisconsin and Virginia.
Despite these fulsome statistics, Messina wouldn't predict victories yet in any of these states. But he said that Obama's efforts to register 1.8 million new voters (28 percent of whom have voted early—345,000 in the top six battleground states) and 125 million calls or face-to-to-face interactions with voters will turn the tide for Obama. "Some campaigns believe in quantity over quality when it comes to voter contact," Messina said. "We do not. This is a people-centered, data-driven effort."
Chicago airily dismisses comparisons with 2008's turnout; Tuesday's will undoubtedly be, at least by percentage tallies, smaller for the president and larger for his GOP foe.
"No one is running against 2008," said Mitch Snyder, head of field operations for Obama-Biden. "Romney is not running against John McCain in 2008. And President Obama is not running against Obama in 2008."
That is true but it also obscures the last great imponderable of this election—partisan turnout intensity—and the one that has frayed nerves in both camps. The 2008 election was unnaturally high for Democrats in terms of turnout and unnaturally low for Republicans.
This is at the root of widely disparate predictions from some of the nation's most respected political analysts.
The New York Times' Nate Silver predicts an Obama victory in Ohio and many other hotly contested states and a somewhat comfortable, though narrow by percentage points, reelection. The Washington Post's Greg Sargent sees a similar firewall. The New Republic's Nate Cohn sees deeply rooted Obama advantages in Ohio and an important edge in Colorado.
The Washington Examiner's Michael Barone predicts a Romney election with 315 electoral votes, which would amount to a modern-era rout for a Republican challenger (Richard Nixon won 301 in 1968, Ronald Reagan 489 in 1980, and Bush the younger 271 in 2000; the post-Depression average for GOP challengers is 208). Barone's math assumes Romney wins in Ohio (fueled, as was Bush in 2004, by rural evangelicals), Pennsylvania (where Western state turnout trumps Philly and its suburbs), and Wisconsin (where Gov. Scott Walker's turnout effort swamps Obama's), and Iowa (where the Des Moines Register endorsement of Romney ventilates statewide "buyer's remorse").
Amid all of the data comes the latest Reuters national poll that shows the presidential race tied at 47 percent. Polls are tightening in New Hampshire, where Romney has pulled into a 47 percent-47 percent tie with Obama. And some conservatives see a mathematical path for Romney in Pennsylvania.
Historically, GOP voter turnout in the battleground states has exceeded Democratic performance (meaning the state-by-state turnout was higher than the ticket's national average). If GOP and Democratic turnout resembles that of 2004, Romney could win. If it resembles 2000's, Obama could eke out victory, largely because demographic shifts since then favor Democrats. But conservatives point to Gallup data that convince them that partisan affiliation and enthusiasm represent the great X factor of this race and, in the end, will give Romney the White House and Democrats fits.
That partisan turnout won't bear any resemblance to 2008 is clear. Obama simply won't do as well as he did and Romney won't do as poorly as McCain. The question is, how far does Obama fall from his high-water mark and how much does the Romney tide rise above McCain's? Romney advisers believe with biting certainty that higher GOP turnout, more enthusiasm, and a late spurt of support among independents will catapult Romney to victory.
"If the Obama campaign spent half the time trying to get people back to work as they do spinning reporters on why they're going to win this election, the unemployment rate might not have gone up," said Romney political director Rich Beeson. "That said, it doesn't matter how many field offices you have, staff you hire, or ground-game plans you have. You need a candidate who can tell the American people why things will be better, not worse, after four years of their leadership."
Romney's advisers roll their eyes because they have reached the breaking point over Obama certitude about its vaunted get-out-the-vote effort. It is possible Team Romney now knows how formidable it is and fears defeat. It is equally possible Romney advisers can't wait to beat it and turn the assumption that machinery-beats-emotion on its head.
Make no mistake, the Obama numbers on field operations, voter contacts, and even some of its early vote projections impress. In the battleground states, Obama's campaign has more than 5,100 what it calls get-out-the-vote staging locations.
These aren't brick-and-mortar field offices, but portable Web-based platforms in homes and businesses that trained Obama volunteers use to mobilize other volunteers in the final push for registration and votes. According to Chicago, its battleground volunteers have signed up for nearly 700,000 four-hour shifts in the campaign's final days.
And yet, Obama and his team are campaigning at a frenetic pace, deploying Obama, first lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Dr. Jill Biden, and former President Clinton all over the swing-state battle space. Messina says this is about "not taking anything for granted," but the destinations bespeak a certain alarm at the closeness of contests in so many places and undercut the confidence conveyed through early-vote metrics.
And even those metrics can be read different ways. What's the benchmark for success? If it's not 2008, what is it? Neither campaign can say with certainty. What they know is the intensity of the outreach, the numbers on the tote board, and the maddening strain that comes with interpreting that data against the unknown of Election Day partisan turnout.
In Colorado, for example, Democrats beat Republicans in the 2008 early vote 37.7 percent to 35.9 percent. This year, Republicans lead Democrats 34.08 percent to 33.69 percent through Friday. In Florida, Democrats have registered an additional 250,000 voters since 2008 and lead the early vote, but by smaller margins than 2008. Democrats won the early vote then 45.6 percent to 37.3 percent. Data through Friday show Democrats leading 42.2 percent to 39.14 percent. In Iowa, Obama's team points to an early-vote lead almost identical to 2008 of roughly 66,000 votes over GOP efforts. Republicans point to a surge in early votes (154,250 votes cast in 2008 versus 212,116 cast through Friday) that sets them up for victory on Election Day.

3 Tips for Taking Pictures of People

When taking pics of little people, click fast:)lolReplyDelete
p.s. Great pics!:)
I've never taken my camera off manual, and I don't regret that. I DO regret missing some shots, but I'm becoming more and more comfortable with the settings that it seems like I look forward to blogging in part because of the pictures I get tot take!ReplyDelete
Ask your model to think of their favorite thing, you'll get the best expression.ReplyDeleteReplies
- AnonymousMay 1, 2012 at 6:10 AM
Great tip!Delete
Focus on the eyes. Literally, I mean.ReplyDelete
And fake it - act relaxed and they will feel that vibe and relax too.
When I first started reading this post I thought you were taking photos like the blog Humans in New York! In other words, asking complete strangers if you could take their photo. That is something I want to get enough nerve to do. I've done the furtive, secret portrait on the fly but I'd like to be more deliberate about it.
Glad you're expanding your skills, always keep learning and trying. I like the couples shoot.ReplyDelete
Uuuuh, I like learning all this stuff!ReplyDelete
You crack me up with that guy, Sharon. I love the pictures you took of the mom-to-be. Sometimes pregnant pictures turn out corney but these are really serene and pretty. Great job!ReplyDelete
The one thing I learned from school is that with portrait shots, the subject's eyes should always be in focus, even if nothing else is. Eyes are one of the first things people look at in a photo, and they make the biggest impact when they're pin-point focused. And uh, yeah, don't flirt with your subjects ;)ReplyDelete
I agree with the other poster that said your photos of the dancer are serene and pretty. That being said, I think the picture you took of the group taking pictures of the couple is actually the most interesting. Nice work. I hope you continue to enjoy the process and not overly edit yourself before you even have a shot. The fun is in the moment and the experience which you as photographer are a part of.ReplyDeleteReplies
ha you're right! i like that shot the best too!!Delete
I loved it!!!ReplyDelete
I just posted the amazing video Love sucks vs Love rocks and summer accessories !!!

happy couple, and have you thought to marry, and if you need unique custom wedding dresses, and any request, contact me.ReplyDelete

Chris Kahler: Disequencing
Bruno David Gallery is pleased to present Chris Kahler: Disequencing exhibition with the gallery, opening Friday, April 5, 2013. The exhibition will be on view April 5May 4, 2013.
The Gallery will also be exhibiting Alex Couwenberg: Swell, Carmon Colangelo: Glocal Diptychs, and Eric Minh Swenson: The Making of La Fonda.
In the Project Room, the gallery presents an exhibition titled "Disequencing" by Chris Kahler. A new body of work that utilizes a more intimate scale and simplicity that is in contrast to recent works. A duality exists in the work, playing back and forth with questions of depth and causality. David Pagel of the Los Angeles Times wrote of Kahler's work: "a potent and corrosive beauty, a sublime combination of breakdown and growth, disintegration and accumulation, creation and destruction. Sometimes it seems as if he paints pictures of a world of effervescence, in which solid substances dissolve into roiling gases, steamy atmospheres, and gravity-defying liquid clouds. In his work, it is almost impossible to distinguish between the microscopic and the cosmic, and everything is richer for the confusion."

As you can see from my recent posts, I'm catching up on submitting projects I've worked on for past year or so. Here's another one that has served me well.
This cutoff saw stand is not nearly as flexible and fancy as some with the accordion wings that move. But, it works for my light duty home shop applications. I have an Evolution 355 mounted on the stand. Here's the design features:
- Rolls on two rear metal non-swivel wheels using the rotating handles in the front. The front two support feet provide enough friction so the table doesn't walk around when cutting.
- Because my shop floor is slightly uneven, I installed an adjustable support foot in one of the front leg. That stops the wobble that's usually found in a four point fixed roller design.
- Has a collapsible & expandable extension wing table. Figuring out how to do the offset support was a real pain, but I finally got it to work. The wing also has a second tube extension for longer work, haven't used the second wing extension much.
- The stand tends to be top heavy, so I put a 3/4" plate on a shelf at the bottom of the saw that adds ballast to the saw. I've never had a problem with instability.
- Addition of the adjustable rule on the wing has been really useful for a quick cutoff, or roughing in the length before measuring it accurately with a tape.
For what it's worth, after using this Evolution cutoff saw for about two years, here's what I like about it in a light non-commercial shop:
- it's fast and easy to cut a wide range of shapes, a fairly powerful saw.
- it's got a big bite for a circular saw, I've cut 6" pipe.
- has a small foot print, taking up a small amount of floor space
- the saw is well built, strong frame castings & solid machined vise.
What I don't like:
- it's noisy, really noisy (note the earmuff)
- it eats saw blades, I've gone through 3 blades in two years (I screwed up one by cutting hardened steel)
- the blade seems to have a bit of wobble that contributes to a small amount of uneven kerf, though I don't think it's much worse than a bandsaw cut.
In a perfect world (eg money's no object), I'd also have a horizontal bandsaw along with this cutoff saw and my vertical Delta bandsaw.

Get answers about Dallas from local experts or tell us what you love about it.
Should I look for an apartment in Dallas with air conditioning? I'm moving from the midwest--how hot does it get?
You definitely want air conditioning in your Dallas apartment. In July and August, highs are always above 90. Thankfully, plenty of Dallas apartments have air conditioning, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding one.
What are the school districts in Dallas?
Dallas public school district information can be found at http://www.dallasisd.org/.
how is the neighborhood?
Addison is good for both young, single professionals and families. The area located 20 minutes north of downtown with plenty of job opportunities; many large companies including Pizza Hut, Mary Kay Cosmetics, Comp USA, and Palm harbor Homes have their national headquarters in Addison. For after work, there are hundreds of restaurants, a bunch of shopping areas and even an airport right in the neighborhood.
do you have any estimates on how many apartments are active in dallas?
On our site, we show 1376 Dallas apartments for rent.
What areas of Dallas are safe for walking around at night?
Uptown Dallas is a nice, safe neighborhood, conveniently located near the Dart bus line and with plenty of shops and restaurants in the vicinity. Closer to downtown Dallas, Lakewood is another safe neighborhood that is perfect for families, with older Tudor-style homes. Some other safe Dallas neighborhoods include North Dallas, Lake Highlands, and White Rock Lake.
What neighborhoods in Dallas are good for eating out?
Dallas has a few areas with a high concentration of restaurants. Beltline Road through Addison and North Dallas, for example, just might have the most restaurants per-capita in the U.S. With many restaurants along its length, Greenville Avenue in East Dallas also has many options. Knox and Henderson streets are home to many stylish establishments, while McKinney Street, south of Uptown, has a plethora of wide-ranging, quality spots. The West End has a mix of chain and local joints.
I'm relocating. What's the weather like in Dallas?
The climate of Dallas features very hot summers, cold winters, and relatively mild springs and autumns. Summer temperatures tend to be in the 80s and winter temperatures tend to be in the 40s. The average high temperature in July, the warmest month of the year, is 96 degrees Fahrenheit, while the average low temperature in January, the coldest month of the year, is 36 degrees Fahrenheit. On average Dallas receives 37 inches of precipitation annually. Rainfall is fairly evenly distributed throughout the year, although May tends to be the wettest month.
Why should I move to Dallas?
With a population of about 1.2 million, Dallas is the third-largest city in Texas and the ninth-largest in the United States. Home to the third largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in the nation, Dallas is a great place for those that work in banking, commerce, telecommunications, computer technology, energy, and transportation, all major industries in the city. Dallas may also be a good place for cost-conscious individuals; compared to the rest of the country, the cost of living in Dallas is 6 percent lower than the US average. With very hot summers and winters that rarely fall below freezing, Dallas is also a good place for the cold-averse.

It was another frustrating race for Jenson Button at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as he could only manage a P4.
While his team-mate Lewis Hamilton claimed pole position and led the race for 21 laps before being forced to retire, Button started P5 and struggled for pace most of the afternoon.
Although he found himself in third place at one stage, he couldn't hold off the charging Red Bull of Sebastian Vettel during the final few laps and had to settle for fourth.
"It was a fun race, but we struggled," the McLaren driver said.
"The car was very different to my runs on Friday - I couldn't get any grip. It was fun and there were some good battles out there. "
Next up is the inaugural United States Grand Prix in Texas and Button is determined to turn his fortunes around.
"Hopefully I'll find more pace [for Austin], my race pace is something that's normally very good, so we'll go and find out why that it wasn't here," he added.

Director/screenwriter S. Pierre Yameogo draws on the true story of one woman to craft this tale of a desperate mother and daughter at risk of succumbing to a sexist tradition based on localized superstition. A young village boy has died of meningitis, and Napoko Diarrha has been accused of eating his soul. Napoko's husband feels dishonored by the fact that his wife resisted the prospect of marrying off the couple's daughter, and he has struck back at her by spreading a vicious rumor that will almost certainly result in her death. Her fate in the hands of the village elders, Napoko flees to the nearby town of Ouagadougou before her trial can take place. But as Napoko's life force fades, her daughter grows stronger with each passing day. Later, the young girl sets out to Ouagadougou in search of her missing mother, and the pair attempts a daring escape from their male-dominated society.~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Appointments are not required but can be made by calling Chamber of Commerce at 918-647-9178, Oklahoma Blood Institute at 877-340-8777 or visiting obi.org.
Candace Martin has resigned as executive director of the Donald W. Reynolds Center in Poteau.
Poteau Mayor Jeff Shockley says that at this time, the city has no plans to replace Martin.

A brief blast of snow blew threw the county Friday afternoon as part of a small winter storm crossing the southern portion of the state.
According to LeFlore County Emergency Management Director Michael Davidson, the storm is expected to be out of the area by 6 p.m.

The Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security encourages Oklahomans to "Resolve to be Ready" in 2013
Each year, about this time, Oklahoman's begin citing their New Year's resolutions; among the most popular: lose weight, quit smoking, pay off debt, work out more, and get a new job. According to the Journal of Clinical Psychology, those who make New Year's resolutions are 11 times more likely to report continued success in achieving a goal than individuals who have not made a resolution.
A broken gas line left several Poteau residents without heat during the onslaught of a winter storm.
According to Bob Neissl, senior vice president of operations with Arkansas Oklahoma Gas Corp. the company the outage occurred Christmas night. Neissl said the break in the gas line affected residents on Reynolds, Grady and Parker avenues, along with some homes on Witteville Road.
"Water got into the line from a leak and disrupted the service," Neissl said. "It's a low-pressure system and water can enter the line from a leak."
Neissl said services should be restored by Wednesday evening.
According to LeFlore County Emergency Management Director, Michael Davidson, the southern portion of LeFlore county saw the highest totals in accumulated snow after Tuesday's winter storm. Davidson said residents of Big Cedar and Heavener received the most snow after eight inches blanketed the communities. He said most of the county, including Poteau, received 5 inches of snow.
Davidson said the storm moved into the county about noon and by 1:30, snow began sticking to the roads. Travel advisories were issued asking drivers to stay off the roads unless it was an emergency.
A Mansfield, Ark., woman received minor injuries after she lost control of her vehicle and rolled down an embankment.

Poteau police officers arrested two fleeing suspects Monday afternoon suspected of burglarizing a Poteau residence earlier that morning.
According to Poteau Chief of Police Stephen Fruen, Detective Mark Kannady was driving on North Broadway about 1:45 p.m. when he spotted red extended-cab Ford Ranger pickup matching the description of a truck at a burglary Monday morning. When Kannady attempted to pull the vehicle over, the driver of the truck turned onto Oklahoma Avenue and sped away.

This is a cinematic journey through the life of a woman born at the turn of the century in Portland, Ore., who grows up with the Rose Festival.

From the Lewis and Clark Centennial in 1905 to the Portland Rose Festival Centennial in 2007, the story takes the viewer on a journey of discovery about nature, self-awareness, human rights and civic pride through the passion and endurance of one unique woman.

That's one step.
Click here for a previous story about the proposed budget cuts for the district.
The school board still can't agree on the next step, however, and determining what programs and staff members must be cut to save an additional $11 million remains unresolved.
Board members initially planned to announce two rounds of district-wide cuts last week and approve them this week.
Get the ePaper or buy a Register at a newsstand near you to read about what's next on the road to solvency for the Perkins school district.
After several hours of discussion during executive, closed-door meetings, however, they have yet to release vote for an approved list.
"There are lots of options we need to discuss," board president Matt Kosior said. "If there was one good option we would have done it a long time ago. None of these cuts are cuts we want to make."

Benefits and Costs of the Clean Air Act
Cross-State Air Pollution Rule in Mississippi
Read more
The Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR) will help ensure that Mississippi families aren't suffering the consequences of harmful air pollution generated far from home. Facilities have until March 1, 2013 to demonstrate compliance with the rule, which slashes millions of tons of smokestack pollution that can lead to premature death, heart attacks, bronchitis and asthma.
Carried long distances across the country by wind and weather, power plant emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) continually travel across state lines. As the pollution is transported, it reacts in the atmosphere and contributes to harmful levels of smog (ground-level ozone) and soot (fine particles), which are scientifically linked to widespread illnesses and premature deaths and prevent many cities and communities from enjoying healthy air quality.
With this rule in place, EPA is ensuring that future generations will have access to clean air and all the benefits that come along with healthy, vibrant communities.
Health Benefits in Mississippi and Neighboring States in 2014
- The CSAPR will improve air quality in Mississippi, providing the state with important public health benefits, including up to 570 fewer premature deaths each year.
- The states total health benefits as a result of the final rule will be between $1.9 billion and $4.6 billion each year.
- These health benefits are due in part to air pollution reductions from the following states: AL, AR, FL, GA, IL, IN, KY, LA, MI, MO, NC, OH, PA, TN, TX, WV
- Mississippis air pollution reductions will contribute to improved air quality in the following states: AL, AR, FL, GA, IL, IN, LA, MO, OH, SC, TN, TX

Recently I saw a post on Chocolate & Zucchini on making your own vanilla extract. Since this sells for nearly as much as HP printer ink at the super market I thought it would be worth looking into.
As it turns out it's incredibly easy to make and totally worth doing. I followed this "recipe" from Chocolate & Zucchini.
Homemade Vanilla Extract
- 3 medium vanilla beans, or 1 1/2 fat ones
- 1 cup rum or vodka
Homemade Vanilla Extract via Chocolate & Zucchini
Step 1: Sanitize, slice, pour.
Figuring 3 beans per cup of alcohol I calculated out the amount of alcohol and number of beans needed (a lot).
The steps for preparing this are pretty simple.
1. Remove vodka or rum from original bottle
2. Split vanilla beans in half
3. Sanitize bottle
4. Put beans in the bottom of the now empty and sanitized bottle
5. Pour vodka back into bottle
6. Cap it, date it and throw it in the back of your cabinet.
Sanitizing the bottle may have been overkill but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Give the bottle a shake everyday for the first week and then once or twice a week for the rest of the infusion period.
Your vodka/rum should be "extract" in 2 months but will continue to improve in flavor for at least another 4-6 months.
Though since I didn't know I looked it up and found this.
My husband and I have tried every brand of vanilla (including organic brands) from all of our local grocers and finally settled on a brand that we like the smell of... BUT, it costs $10/bottle and we go through a lot of vanilla and purchase a bottle each month. EXPENSIVE!
I love the idea of saving money and possibly having a better smelling / tasting product too. I'll post back when my vanilla is ready to let all know how it's turned out. :)
Thank you!! :)
Thanks for the instructable.
This extract is pretty nice and a good bulk price: 32 oz for 33$, or 1.03$ a oz.
Even with the bottles factored in, the homemade is cheaper. Wherever you are getting a gallon of good vanilla extract for 3$, you should buy it in bulk and sell it to the rest of us. :D
In the US (on Amazon) prices range from $60 to $460 a gallon. If I could get it at $3 a gallon I'd probably buy a 50 gallon drum.
They have a wide variety of extremely fresh spices, and great pricing in my opinion. There is always a special running where you get something for free with your order as well, and vanilla beans are often one of the free items if you care to wait for them to come up.
But liked the idea, now if I can only get a bank loan!
You should try the ebay store called VanillaProducts. They sell bulk vanilla beans and they ship worldwide. I have made my own extract from their beans and it is wonderful. 1LB of Tahitian Organic Vanilla Beans is only $13.98 - Which is around 100 bean pods.
I think that is a really good price for you.

Not that this is that important, but I literally fell to the ground laughing when he listed his Super Bowl city rankings:
My Super Bowl city rankings: 1. San Diego, 2. New Orleans, 3. Indianapolis, 4. Phoenix, 5. Dallas, 6. Tampa, 7. South Florida. I'd very much like L.A. and San Francisco to get back in the mix. (Why Miami so low? Too spread out. Everything's a hassle. Convenience rules.)
You can make an argument about San Diego and New Orleans, but Indianapolis and Dallas? Seriously? Peter King must be the only guy in America that would rather be in Indianapolis than Miami in the beginning of February. Forget the great weather (most of the time), South Beach, and beautiful woman, I would rather be able to walk across the street to Starbucks.
Miami is too spread out, but he wants LA to get back in the mix. I guess Peter obviously has never been to LA before.
I am usually a big fan of his, but what he said was pretty ridiculous.

Could this web design be improved?
I have earlier made some design changes to my website. The change was to replace most of the images with cross-browser CSS -- thankfully it works after hours of testing. The website's purpose is to provide folks with free stuff for their computer or website. The design is to be easily read by the general audience and with straightforward navigation. I'm not too sure if there are any other parts that could improve the layout. I would appreciate any suggestions.

For starts you could really use some graphics. People look at a site and want the pictures to tell them what the site is about right away with out any words ever being read to start off.
The menu could be jazzed up by doing something like a fade effect.
You could also add little icons along site the different menu topics along the side of the website.
Lots of different menu options out there and worth while to explore your options to make it stand out more.

Thanks for the suggestions. I can look into adding icons and graphics that might fit in well with the navigation.
I suppose a text twitter widget could also fit in the top right corner of the black-gradient bar. Something neat like a bird with a speech bubble.
