Kepler Space Jump - Twice as high as Felix Baumgartner
Recently Felix Baumgarter broke the record for the highest skydiving jump at a staggering 39 kilometers.
News of this traveled far, far enough to reach Kepler 22b. 39 kilometers!
They can do way better! Watch what unfolds as the inhabitants of Kepler 22b attempt to break Felix's record.
Re: Kepler Space Jump - Twice as high as Felix Baumgartner
The production quality of your videos is very good. This was fun to watch. I've followed Baumgartner's jump and I'm glad to see you're doing something humorous with it story wise.

e-Permitting Existing e-Gov Solutions
RCRA Related e-Government Initiatives
The RCRA e-Government Inititiaves include:
- RCRA Related e-Government Initiatives
- RCRA Forms That Can Be Filled Out Electronically
- State e-forms
- Federal e-forms
- Online RCRA Hazardous Waste Forms/Applications
- Non-RCRA Related e-Government Initiatives
E-forms are forms that can be filed out on the computer and can be interactive.The state can set up a system to transfer the filled-in information without retyping.The most simple ones are downloadable files (like Adobe Acrobat forms or word processor forms) that have places to insert the specific information.
The more advanced forms are interactive and prompt the user with available choices, link to related state or federal regulations, have some data quality checks, and have additional tools that make the process more efficient. These forms can be created with a variety of software including web-based ones like Cold fusion for the more complex forms to Adobe Acrobat.State e-forms
- Alabama - Alabama Hazardous Waste/Used Oil Transporter Permit Application (PDF) (12 pp, 178K, About PDF)
- Florida - Hazardous Waste Facility Permit Application Instructions and Forms (PDF) (66 pp, 447K, About PDF). This is a great example of a very useful permitting form. This references other Florida forms.
- Georgia - RCRA Part A Application Form
- Kentucky - Registration of Hazardous Waste Activity - and More. This contains Microsoft Word files that have dropdown menus.
- Massachusetts - Hazardous Waste Permit Applications. Most of the forms are in Microsoft Word format which will allow you to complete and save the form using your computer and Microsoft Word software.
- Mississippi - Hazardous Waste Permit Types (PDF) (1 pg, 7K, About PDF). Navigate to the Environmental Permits Division for the forms link. Some applications and forms are grouped by permit type and are available for download in either MS Word, Adobe Acrobat, or WordPerfect format. Although, none of the direct entry files are RCRA-specific.
- New Jersey - Electronic copies of Registration, Permit, Information and Recording Forms. This allows many different options for the user. The Word documents may allow for direct entry.
- South Carolina - Hazardous Waste Permits including a reporting and transporter form
- South Dakota - Forms/Applications including a Hazardous Waste Notification form. Many other online forms are in non-RCRA topics.
- Texas - Forms - There is limited function with the hazardous waste forms, but Texas is in the process to make interactive forms.
We are examining the possibilities of e-permitting for the RCRA program. As a first step we evaluated existing state e-permitting systems to better understand system capabilities and implementation issues. We are recently developed criteria to evaluate features for workable e-permitting software.
RCRA-regulated entities will be able to request
a RCRA EPA ID number for new facilities or supply revisions to their
Notification of Regulated Waste Activity submissions - via the EPA's Central Data Exchange (CDX) web
site - through an application known as the RCRA Site Identification
You may e-mail (email@example.com) with comments about the RCRA Site Identification Form.
We are also looking at using CDX to allow facilities to file their RCRA Part A permit forms. If you wish to apply for a RCRA hazardous waste permit you must submit a hard copy (PDF) (46 pp, 886K, About PDF) of the RCRA forms.

Usually dark green, olive green, or brown in color with black spots. May also have yellow coloration on sides of body.
The green anaconda spends most of its time in the water. Eyes and nostrils on the top of its head enable it to see and breath while partially submerged.
During breeding season several males (up to 12) will entwine themselves around a female to attempt copulation. Anacondas give birth to live young having litters up to 30 offspring.
The average length is 10-15 feet.
Average weight is between 110 - 165 pounds.
Green anaconda are carnivorous. In the wild these snakes will eat almost anything they can manage to overpower, including: fish, birds, mammals and reptiles. At the Zoo the anaconda are offered rats in the winter and in the summer, when the snakes are more active, they are offered rabbits. Anaconda use constriction to overpower their prey, the snake then swallows the prey whole. It will take up to a week or more for the snake to completely digest its meal and be ready to eat again.

A reader requested we repost the gallery of the grand opening of the new stadium for Perkins High School on to our new site.
Firelands Regional Medical Center Stadium Opening
It will be a packed house friday with Perkins taking on Clyde for a piece of the SBC leadership this season.
Agreed that it will be a big crowd for the game on Friday and it should be a great game.
It will also be pretty full on Saturday evening for the Northcoast Marching Band Competition. Twelve bands from around the state will be performing to qualify for state finals. It starts at 5:00 and it will be another great event at Firelands Regional Medical Center Stadium.
Is there an admission fee to attend this competition ? What's the weather forecast? Might be an enjoyable evening for the family.
I am a member of the PHS Band, I believe that there has usually been and $8.00 admission in the past. I don't see change this year but i'm not totally sure. Somewhere around $8.00.
Go Pirates!
It's $6 for adults & $4 for students & senior citizens. The bands competing are Holgate, Woodmore, Swanton, Wellington, Chippewa, River Valley, Buckeye, Kalida, Marion Harding, Kettering Fairmont, Lakota West, and Perkins. It starts at 5:00.
Sounds like a great family outing. If the weather is good we will be there.
What a great use of the facilities. Will the concession stand be open?
Yes, both concession stands will be open. There will also be a 50/50 Raffle to add a little more enjoyment.

Lots of things going on at Flyboy lately. Here's an update for you.
NEW BASKETS! The first installment of 9 Discatcher Pro baskets is arriving shortly to start upgrading my DB5s. Please, I need your help paying for these so hit the donation jug in the Pro shop when you come out.
PRO SHOP! We have a full-up pro shop in operation now. Come through the pro shop when you arrive at Flyboy to sign in, pay the course fee, sign a waiver, and buy discs, Flyboy merchandise, and snacks. Being that I trust you fellow disc golfers implicitly, the pro shop will be 100% self-serve, honor system operation until I determine otherwise.
BED & BREAKFAST! The bunkroom is fully operational and we've been accomodating disc golf guests for a few months now. The price is $50 per night per person and includes the course fee (and your 3 shots at the hangar basket), breakfast, and lunch between #18 and #19, plus free veggies out of Wayne's garden. World champions stay free.
CAMPING FACILITIES! Brad Orman is building a small rustic cabin with two full restroom and shower facilities on the back of the tractor shed by hole #23. No more port-a-johns! The cabin and tent camping is available for a nominal fee.
DISC FISHING! The Disc Fishing Ban is now lifted. Orman pulled out a huge stack of discs from the pond at #25 in about 20 minutes! Check lost and found in the Pro shop for your lost troopers.
#25 NEW BASKET POSITION! If you haven't seen it yet, you're in for a treat. This is truly a one-of-a-kind hole.
NEW TRACTOR MOTOR! We blew up the tractor motor a few months ago, clearing out a new lane on hole #10. Thousands of dollars later and a brand new motor, the tractor is back running, trying to keep up with the grass and brush cutting out here.
THE STORY OF FLYBOY! Check out www.AceRunners.com and read the 3-part story on how Flyboy Aviation Disc Golf came to be.
BOTTOM LINE: Flyboy Aviation is dedicated to providing the Atlanta disc golfers the absolute best possible disc golf venue on the planet. Guys, this takes hard work and money, plain and simple. Being a private course, the money comes right out of my pocket. Please know that your donations and help with the never-ending course maintenance is hugely appreciated!
See you out here!

The Driver Improvement Section of the Tennessee Department of Safety was established to monitor the driving records of Tennessee drivers. Drivers that accumulate twelve (12) or more points on their driving record within any 12-month period are sent a notice of proposed suspension and given an opportunity to attend an administrative hearing. If they fail to request a hearing, their driving privileges are suspended for a period of six to 12 months. In most cases, when a driver requests a hearing, they are given the opportunity to attend a defensive driving class in lieu of suspension or a reduction of suspension time. Locate a Tennessee Department of Safety approved Defensive Driving School.
Drivers less than eighteen (18) years of age that accumulate six (6) or more points on their driving record within any twelve (12) month period are sent a notice of proposed suspension from the Department of Safety and are placed in the Driver Improvement Program. The driver will be required to attend an administrative hearing, with their parent or guardian present, to discuss the points assigned to their driving record. Certain actions could be imposed based on the outcome of the hearing and the number of points accumulated on the driver's record.
When the department receives a signed, written request or complaint that a driver has a medical/physical disability, a medical form completed by his/her physician must be submitted.
Special/Medical Examination Request Form
Medical Forms
Action taken against these drivers, if any, is based on the completed medical report. In some cases, their driving privileges may be suspended or restrictions may be added. If a complaint of a driver's ability to operate a motor vehicle is submitted to the department, it is the Driver Improvement Section's responsibility to determine if any action should be taken. The individual may be required to submit a re-evaluation of all, or any part, of the driver license examination.
Effective October 1, 2008, the Federal reporting requirement for commercial vehicle convictions was changed from 30 days to 10 days (FMCSA Part 384: State Compliance with Commercial Driver's License Program, §384.209 Notification of Traffic Violations).

Cheese & Wine Party Ideas & Cheese Pairings
Pairings & Tips For A Party
CAPSULE REPORT: Whether you want to throw a formal wine and cheese party, have a few friends over for a wine and cheese tasting or want to know more about the art of pairing wine with cheese, here are suggestions from a recent successful party menu. Try these combinations at your next party—or simply a few at a time on the cheese tray after dinner. The pairing recommendations push the envelope a bit: they're not the standard wines or the standard cheeses. So if you're putting together a gift basket or house gift for someone who loves wine and cheese, they're great gift suggestions as well.
Wine is not the only food category that comes with descriptive language. As such, my first compulsion when putting together a wine and cheese tasting was to identify similarities and contrasts in the descriptions of the cheeses and wines I was to taste. We tried red and white wines from all over the world, dry and sweet, armed with some insights gleaned from THE NIBBLE's article on Cheese Terminology. We also visited a new cheese boutique in Brooklyn, New York for some cheese expertise—the enticingly-named Stinky Cheese. The signs identifying the cheeses in the displays at Stinky list wine recommendations that could be purchased from Smith and Vine, a wine shop on the next block (Smith Street) owned by the same proprietors. Gina, one of the consultants at Stinky, helped us with some recommendations.
Wine & Cheese Pairings: The Line-Up
Cheeses available from iGourmet.com.
White Wine & Cheese Pairings
We began, as always, with the white wines. If you want to find a wine in your area, look, as we do, on WineSearcher.com. You can also see the best prices.
Red Wine & Cheese Pairings
While the reds are heavier bodied, we matched the wines to some of the same cheeses we enjoyed with the whites, and brought in some new cheeses as well.
Sweet Wine & Cheese Pairings
No tasting would be complete without a marvelous dessert wine. We chose a classic wine and cheese pairing, Sauternes and blue cheese. Our Sauternes is actually an Australian semillon (the grape used for Sauternes) infected with "noble rot," Botrytis cinerea, a fungus that attacks the grapes and causes them to rot. While most grape growers pray that rot does not come near their vineyards, those making sweet wine from Semillon or Gewürtztraminer pray for it. As the mold leaches moisture from the grapes, causing them to wither, the juice inside becomes more concentrated and creates the most viscous and glorious of wines. Blue cheese, too, is made glorious by a completely different mold (Penicillium roqueforti or other species of Penicillium, depending on the cheese). Who would have thought that combining two foods based on fungus and mold would be so glorious!
D'Arenberg The Noble Riesling 2001 ($25.00, 375ml)
From Damn Good Foods in Stillwater, New York comes a line of flavorful, nicely textured beef jerky in 2-, 4- and 8-ounce packages. My husband, Chef Shehu, first came across them at a gas station on his way to snowboard at Hunter Mountain in New York State. He didn't actually try it until two months later, on another snowboarding trip in Davos, Switzerland. "I was hiking up this mountain face to get some freshies. When I got to the peak I needed a little snack before tackling the descent," he related, and discovered that he still had the jerky in his pack. "Damn, this is some damn good jerky," he exclaimed upon tasting it, "this is truly the best jerky I've ever had!" (Now you know where the name comes from.
Shehu was so impressed that he kept the package to find out where to get some more, and got a package of each of their eight flavors, which include Garlic, Hickory and Teriyaki. Our favorites were Barbecue, Black Pepper and Hot N' Spicy. Contrary to expectations, the jerky tasted great with the two crisp, light whites (Don Olegario Albariño and Shoofly Buzz Cut) and the Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc, providing earthy, gamey, smoky counterbalance. The jerky is priced from $2.99 for a 2-oz package to $11.49 for an 8-ounce bag. There are also gift sets. The jerky can be purchased at their DamnGoodJerky.com. Regarding Death by Jerky, proceed at your own risk.

text: He is probably one of the most versatile players of the current squad with the ability to step in at more than one position in the backcourt and frontcourt at any given time. Just like Barton, he was present 14 years ago in France, when the Czechs made the first of only three appearances at EuroBasket in the past 15 years. Welsch's illustrious career is split into two parts: the European and the American one. He left his native country for some European experience at age 20, joining Olimpia Ljubljana where he made a name for himself, winning the Slovenian League and the Adriatic League. He was soon to be drafted by the Golden State Warriors to the NBA, realising his long-time dream and becoming the second Czech player in history to do so. But he never really found a role in the NBA and his roller coaster career on the other side of the Atlantic ended when he decided to accept an offer to move back to Europe to play in the ACB Liga with Malaga. Welsch produced some of the most mature basketball of his career with the Spanish outfit and after a stop in Belgium with Spirou he is back in his native land with perennial champions Nymburk.

Recipe For Romance: Coeur à la Crème
Page 1: A Dessert Rich With Mascarpone
CAPSULE REPORT: The perfect cheese course for Valentine's Day—or any romantic situation—is Coeur à la Crème. Of course, the luscious mascarpone creation (the same cheese used to make tiramisu) can be enjoyed any day of the year. This is Page 1 of a four-page article. Click on the black links below to visit other pages.
Overview: Coeur à la Crème
Coeur à la Crème translates from the French as "heart of the cream." Traditionally associated with Valentine's Day, it is most often served in a heart shape.
But what exactly is this dessert? It usually involves heavy cream, some sweetener, a little flavoring (which may be alcohol, lemon juice or both), perhaps an agent to color it pink (which may be Chambord or red food coloring), and a fresh, soft cheese. When not colored pink, it's frequently served with a raspberry sauce. Beyond that, there seem to be as many recipes for it as there are cooks.
The origins of this dessert seem to have been lost in the mists of time, but it's been around for centuries. Several sources refer to it as "classic" or "timeless," and it likely originated in France, most likely in an area with an abundance of dairy products. Like many early formulations, it could well have been a way to use up some extra cream in a cheese that was meant to be eaten fresh.
No one has an explanation for the usual heart shape of Coeur à la Crème: My suspicion is that it was not molded into a heart shape at first; this seems likely to have been a later addition, but the details are lost in time.

Sunday, February 15, 2004TAMPA, Fla. (Feb. 15, 2004) - South Florida scored five runs in the final two innings to blow open a tight game and defeat East Tennessee State, 8-2, Sunday afternoon from Red McEwen Field in Tampa, Fla. With the win, the Bulls swept the season opening three-game series from the Bucs. The Bucs opened the scoring, taking their first lead of the series in the top of the first. Senior All-Southern Conference shortstop Andy Howdeshell (Maryville, Tenn.) hit his first homer of the season with a blast over the left-center field wall with two outs. South Florida came right back to take the advantage with three runs in the bottom of the first. Second baseman Mike Macaluso led off the inning with a triple to center field then right fielder Ryan Hierlmeier was hit by a pitch and third baseman Jeff Baisley walked. Catcher Brian Baisley then singled to right center to drive in Macaluso and Hierlmeier. Designated hitter Kris Howell singled to left center with two outs to score Jeff Baisley. The damage could have been worse if not for a spectacular diving catch of a foul pop-up by junior first baseman Ryan Spriggs (Crossville, Tenn.). ETSU cut the Bull lead in half with a run in the top of the third. Sophomore third baseman Greg Roberts (Douglas, Ga.) reached on an error and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by junior left fielder Richie Billings (Leesburg, Fla.). After a walk by sophomore right fielder Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.), Howdeshell came through again with a two-out RBI single to left field. The Bucs had an opportunity to tie the game in the top of the sixth. Sophomore catcher Blake Church (Roswell, Ga.) led off the inning with a single up the middle, then advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by sophomore second baseman Josiah Glafenhein (Knoxville, Tenn.). But Church was able to get no farther than third as USF starter Nick Manganaro was able to retire the final two Buccaneer batters of the inning. East Tennessee State again had runners in scoring position in the seventh, with runners on first and second with one out and the bases loaded with two outs. But the Bulls brought in reliever Matt Ingram, who recorded strikeouts for the final two outs of the inning to hold the Bucs scoreless. USF widened their lead to 4-2 with a run in the bottom of the seventh. Howell led off the inning with a single to left field, then advanced to third on a failed pickoff attempt. The next batter, first baseman Matt McHargue, singled to right field, scoring Howell. South Florida put the game away by scoring four runs in the bottom of the eighth. The big blow of the inning was a three-run homer by McHargue that also scored left fielder Travis Brown and Howell. Howell reached base on a single to left field earlier in the frame that drove in shortstop Myron Leslie with the first run of the inning. Manganaro (1-0) earned the win for USF, pitching 6.1 innings while allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and striking out three. ETSU senior starter Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) was charged with the loss (0-1) after also pitching 6.1 innings, and allowing four runs (three earned) on six hits and striking out two. After pitching 2.2 innings of scoreless relief and striking out five Buccaneer batters, Ingram earned his first save of the season for the Bulls. Sophomore center fielder Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Howdeshell led the Buccaneer attack with two hits each while Howdeshell drove in both of ETSU's runs. USF was led by Howell, who had three hits and two RBIs and McHargue, who had two hits and four RBI for the Bulls. "Today was a game of missed opportunities," said ETSU head coach Tony Skole following the game. "Ultimately what cost us the game was our inability to drive in runs. Tim (Turner) pitched great, we just could not score enough runs to get him a win." East Tennessee State returns to action with a two-game series at Georgia on Tuesday and Wednesday, both games starting at 4 p.m. Live stats will be available on the University of Georgia athletic website, www.georgiadogs.com.

It always feels so good to be with them! We drove to our hotel, got checked in and settled and I ate some DELICIOUS New York bagels (thanks Daddy!) We went for a walk around Boston Common and the area by our hotel, and then I went back to the hotel to rest and my parents went out for dinner. I have definitely felt like the parent while we have been here as I eat early, have been to bed early and get up early, while they go out every night, stay up late, and sleep in. :)
On Saturday morning Coach Rick picked me up at 9am. We went over to the track at MIT so I could run for him. I was a little nervous since I have never had anyone watch me run or evaluate my form, and of course I wanted to make a good impression.
Coach Rick told me told me to run two laps nice and easy, and he was going to count my steps, watch my form, etc. I got in to a groove quickly and easily, but as I finished the first lap, Rick stopped me. Before I really had a chance to wonder why, he was telling me all sorts of great things. He told me my form was great, my cadence and foot strike were right on, he was impressed with my overall fitness, etc. I got some big smiles and high fives (and felt great) and then was on my way for some more laps. His enthusiasm and excitement were definitely uplifting.
After a couple more slow laps, Rick asked me to pick up the pace gradually. Again he stopped me, and this time he told me that I looked even better "at speed". I did a few more laps, and then he asked me to run at marathon pace for a few laps. He said my form didn't change over time, even at speed, and that that was great. I did a couple of slower laps again, and then we walked a couple of laps together to talk.
Basically Rick said that there is a tweak or two we will make over time, but that he felt I had "all the tools" to achieve the things I want to achieve if I put the work in.
We headed over to the expo to get my number, packet, and to see all there was to see. We beat the big crowds since we were there early. I am not a big shopper but it is fun to see all the products, booths, runners, etc.
I did get to see my buddy Bart at the Runner's World booth. He promptly whipped out a copy of the May issue and showed the people standing around that I was in the magazine. I told him I just wanted to say hi and get a hug, not get embarrassed. :) We talked for a little bit and got the mandatory picture. Bart is a great guy!
We left the expo to head back to the hotel, and I spotted my parents walking, so we pulled over and picked them up.
Dad, Pam and I had a nice lunch, and then we got some pictures at the finish line (although I did not get a picture on it and I didn't get any closer to it than this. I don't want to cross that finish line until it counts!)
We walked back to the hotel and rested for awhile, and then met up for dinner with friends of my parents, and my friend, the wonderful Miss Zippy! Dinner was fun, but afterwards when the rest of the group was going out for drinks, Amanda and I each headed back to our hotels for early bedtimes.
|We aren't the most exciting party-ers, but we clean up nice!
This morning was an early start, and I left the hotel for a short run at 5:45am. I ran three miles around Boston Common, and found a nice flat, quiet stretch in the park to do my strides. I got back to the hotel, showered, and packed a breakfast, and then Coach Rick picked me up at 7:15. He took me for a tour of the course, which was super helpful. We drove up to Hopkinton and walked around and got some pictures at the starting area.
Rick knows the course inside and out, and it was really great and helpful to see the course and get so much insight. I definitely feel more confident after seeing the course and knowing what to expect.
We stopped along the course and I got a photo with the Johnny Kelley statue. I love it!
It was exciting to see the Citgo sign and the final turns on to Hereford and Boylston...I can only imagine how exciting it will be to see them tomorrow!
I had a yummy lunch with my parents at a restaurant near the hotel. Pam has to work tomorrow so we (very sadly) had to say good-bye to her.
|Me with my Dad

|Robin is so much fun!
Good night world! Tomorrow is Boston Marathon Day!

What Is COPD?
Most people with COPD suffer from both emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, is a group of lung conditions or diseases that block airflow and make breathing difficult.
COPD generally starts off mild, but progressively gets worse over time.
In 2011, approximately 13.7 million people in the United States reported having COPD, according to a 2013 report in the journal Chest.
However, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) notes that at least 12 million people likely have COPD without knowing it.
Chronic lower respiratory disease — of which COPD is the biggest component — is the third leading cause of death in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
In 2010, COPD killed about 133,575 people in the United States, according to the Chest report.
Types of COPD
There are two main types of COPD: Emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
In emphysema, the alveoli (air sacs in the lungs) become damaged, causing them to lose their elasticity.
The walls of the alveoli can also rupture, reducing the overall surface area of the lungs.
This in turn reduces the amount of oxygen that can enter the bloodstream and the amount of carbon dioxide that can be exhaled.
Additionally, emphysema makes it difficult for people to fully exhale because the alveolar walls are no longer able to hold open the breathing tubes when you breathe out.
With chronic bronchitis, the lining of the breathing tubes becomes irritated and inflamed. This causes the airway lining to thicken and produce a lot of mucus (phlegm), which interferers with normal breathing.
Most people with COPD suffer from both emphysema and chronic bronchitis, according to the NHLBI.
Refractory asthma, which is non-reversible, is also considered part of COPD, as are some forms of bronchiectasis, an abnormal scarring of the airways.
Smoking and COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease most often develops in people who are over 40 years old and have a history of smoking (currently smoke or have in the past), according to the CDC.
In fact, smoking contributes to up to 90 percent of COPD-related deaths. However, up to one out of six people who develop COPD have never smoked.
Other important causes of COPD include:
- Indoor air pollution from the burning of biomass, such as wood in fireplaces
- Heavy exposure to dust and chemical fumes in the workplace
- Asthma
- Frequent respiratory infections, especially during childhood
- Heavy or long-term exposure to secondhand smoke and other air pollutants
In rare cases, emphysema is caused by an inherited disorder called alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, in which the body doesn't produce enough of a certain protein (alpha-1 antitrypsin) that normally protects the lungs from damage.
Symptoms of COPD develop slowly and often include:
- "Smoker's cough," a persistent cough that may contain mucus
- Fatigue
- Frequent respiratory infections
- Dyspnea, or shortness of breath that worsens with mild activity
- Wheezing
- Chest tightness
- Cyanosis, a blueness of the skin, particularly the lips and fingernail beds
- Weight loss (in later stages)
- Insomnia
People with COPD may also experience exacerbations, or periods in which their symptoms are worse than normal.
Diagnosis and Treatment
Doctors diagnose COPD based on symptoms, medical history, and lab tests.
The main test for COPD is a lung function test called spirometry, which involves blowing into a tube connected to a spirometer, a machine that measures how much air you breathe out and how quickly you do it.
Other tests include chest x-rays or computerized tomography (CT) scans and an arterial blood gas test, which measures the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood taken from the artery.
There is no cure for COPD. Treatment of COPD focuses on relieving symptoms, improving quality of life, and correcting lifestyle habits that may worsen the condition. This can include:
- Quitting smoking and avoiding places with lung irritants, such as smoke, dust, fumes, and airborne toxins
- Using inhalers, or bronchodilators, to open the airways
- Taking steroid medications (either inhaled or ingested) to reduce inflammation
- Undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation to learn to breathe more efficiently
- Undergoing oxygen therapy, in which oxygen is supplied through an air tank and delivered via nasal prongs or a mask

Our research section features in-depth media analysis, original reports illustrating skewed or inadequate coverage of important issues, thorough debunking of conservative falsehoods that find their way into coverage and other special projects from Media Matters' research department.
Fox News cited anonymous sources to scandalize the State Department's decision to recategorize some of Hillary Clinton's emails, using technical language to avoid admitting that the emails were simply designated as privileged communications -- a common type of redaction to protect agency deliberations. Instead, Fox hyped the change as evidence of a concerted cover-up to "hide classified info."Research September 2, 2015 5:03 PM EDT
Morning shows seized on a faulty Washington Post headline to allege that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton inappropriately wrote and sent classified emails during her time as secretary of state, whitewashing the fact that her emails were only retroactively marked "classified" and the opinion of experts that the existence of potentially classified information is not inherently obvious.Research September 2, 2015 3:52 PM EDT
New information and widespread media criticism of the highly flawed New York Times story that falsely implied Hillary Clinton was the target of a criminal investigation over her email practices as secretary of state confirm the paper conflated two different stories to scandalize a routine bureaucratic process.

Here is a dilemma..Patriots have been consistently good for the past decade+. They made playoffs every year (except one), but have not won the big one in a long time.
Because we make the playoffs and more often than not, go deep, one of the issues is that we have been forced to pick in the tail end. This in turn means BB has to gamble.
On the other hand, NYG wins the SB in 2007 then they tank, get good picks and come back to win the SB again.
So.. given a choice between being perennially good (but not winning the SB) and constantly moving between being great and terrible, what would you pick?

Snakebite video: Ideas on Contracts
THis is a subject we can all relate to. It affects many aspects to what we do. It's not something everyone talks about or shares experience for some reason.
In my quest to come up with video topics, encouraged by Charles(thank you), this is the first one I'd like to address...I thought this video was gonna be simple. but there's lots of issues around this topic that hit the editing room floor...well, didn't get used. All digital footage. But I thought it was enough to at least start a conversation, even if that conversation was amongst yourselves...
I'd like for you to share you experience and ideas abot this issue, but if this at least just inspires people to talk about it privately then thats enough for me.

Panel Urges Lung Cancer Screening For Millions Of Americans
Originally published on Thu August 22, 2013 1:24 pm
A federal task force is planning to recommend that millions of smokers and former smokers get a CT scan annually to look for early signs of lung cancer.
The 16-member US Preventive Services Task Force gives that lung cancer screening test a grade of B, which puts it on the same level as mammography for women between the ages of 50 and 74.
That grade is important, because preventive tests with a grade of A or B oblige Medicare, other federal health programs and private insurers to cover the entire cost, beginning a year after a guideline is adopted. A lung scan costs about $300 to $500.
"This is the first time we've had science that tells us that we can actually avoid some lung cancer deaths through screening," task force vice chairman Michael LeFevre tells Shots. "So this is really a big change."
It's a change that some won't welcome. Some experts warn that it's going to cause too much follow-up testing for many patients, with the accompanying anxiety. Another concern is that screening will uncover many cancers that would never have caused a problem – a phenomenon called overdiagnosis.
An explanation of the proposed recommendation appears today in Annals of Internal Medicine. It's based on a federally financed study of more than 50,000 people published two years ago.
The task force estimates that its proposed recommendation will cut U.S. lung cancer deaths by 20,000 a year. That's only about 13 percent of the nearly 160,000 people who die of the disease in this country annually.
"That's a relatively small proportion of those 160,000 deaths," LeFevre acknowledges. The problem is that even with screening, many people's lung cancer will be too advanced for effective treatment. "But a small proportion of a big number is still a big number," adds LeFevre. "And 20,000 lives is a lot of people."
He says the lung cancer screening test – a computed tomography or CT scan – is actually more effective than mammography or colonoscopy in saving lives.
Under the panel's proposal, screening is expected to save one life for every 320 people screened. By comparison, it takes 900 to 1,900 mammograms to save one life from breast cancer (depending on whether those screened are older or younger). And LeFevre estimates that it takes about 500 colonoscopies to save a life from colon cancer.
The task force will consider comments on the proposed guidelines before issuing a final recommendation in three to six months, LeFevre says.
Tom Murphy, a 61-year-old Maryland man, has no doubt that annual screening prevented him from dying of lung cancer as his father did.
Murphy, who smoked for three decades, started getting yearly lung scans in 2005 as part of a study. Five years later, a scan showed that a spot on his right lung was growing.
"Oh absolutely, that scan saved my life," Murphy tells Shots. "This thing started at five millimeters in January of 2010 and at the point they took it out, it was 1.2 centimeters, nine months later. So I'm very grateful. And I believe to this day that it saved my life."
The proposed recommendation is aimed at people who are at especially high risk of lung cancer. They're between the ages of 55 and 79 and they have smoked the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years or more. If they have quit smoking, it must be within the past 15 years. After that, people have gained enough benefit from not smoking that screening isn't useful, the panel says.
Nearly 90 million Americans are smokers or former smokers. About 7 million of these are in the target age group and have smoked at least a pack a day for 30 years.
The Task Force is trying to strike a crucial balance – what LeFevre calls "the point at which (the screening tests) seems to do a significant amount more good than harm."
A fundamental problem with lung cancer CT screening is that when it finds a suspicious-looking nodule in a lung, it turns out to be non-cancerous 96 percent of the time. That's called a false positive rate, and it may be higher than any other approved screening test.
Most people who have a positive scan would be scheduled for a second scan several months later to see if the nodule has grown. If it has, the patient may need further scans, a biopsy of tissue through a needle inserted into the lung, or even lung surgery.
"We are actually going to do some lung surgery on people just to prove that they don't have cancer," LeFevre says.
He says people who have an abnormal lung scan are going to have to be calm, patient and deliberate – and their doctors are too.
"This is an anxiety that I have about lung cancer screening," says LeFevre, who is an associate professor of family medicine at the University of Missouri.
"If somebody hears they have a 5 percent chance that this is cancer, and then you say, 'Well, let's wait three months and repeat your CAT scan,' if the emotional response is, 'No, let's do something now," then we're going to do a lot of harm in the process of doing a little good," LeFevre says.
Dr. Kenneth Lin of Georgetown University thinks the task force is putting too much faith in lung screening.
"They rank it with those tests that your doctor – if they're a good doctor – is supposed to bug you about to get done," Lin says, referring to mammograms, colonoscopy and Pap smears. "And I don't feel that this test necessarily meets that criteria. I don't necessarily feel that patients should be pressured into getting this test done."
He and others worry not only about the high false-positive rate and the ensuing medical tests, but also what doctors call "overdiagnosis" – the discovery of cancers that would never become a problem.
"Uncovering this reservoir of indolent disease will almost always happen when you start screening," Dr. Laura Esserman, a breast cancer specialist at the University of California San Francisco, tells Shots. "We need to recognize it and understand it. Because if you don't, you're going to overtreat people."
Esserman is coauthor of a commentary on overdiagnosis and overtreatment of cancer published online Monday by JAMA, the journal of the American Medical Association.
This is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Melissa Block.
And I'm Audie Cornish.
A federal task force is planning to urge millions of smokers and former smokers to get an annual test that looks for early signs of lung cancer. The proposal was released today by the Annals of Internal Medicine. The panel is convinced that the test, a computerized X-ray scan, will save tens of thousands of lives. But as we hear from NPR's Richard Knox, the screening has some important downsides.
RICHARD KNOX, BYLINE: The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force says its proposed recommendation will prevent 20,000 Americans a year from dying of lung cancer. Dr. Michael LeFevre, a vice chairman of the panel, acknowledges that's only about 15 percent of the 160,000 people who die of the dread disease every year.
DR. MICHAEL LEFEVRE: But a small proportion of a big number is still a big number. And 20,000 lives is a lot of people.
KNOX: Nearly 90 million Americans are smokers or former smokers. The task force is targeting 7 million of them for annual CAT scans. They're people between 55 and 79 who've smoked the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years. If they've quit, it needs to have been within the past 15 years to qualify. The task force gives lung cancer screening a grade of B. That puts it on par with mammography in terms of effectiveness. In fact, LeFevre says it's better.
LEFEVRE: We can, in fact, screen fewer people and avoid more deaths than we can with mammography.
KNOX: It takes 320 lung scans of high-risk people to prevent one lung cancer death. But it takes 900 scans of women past 50 to prevent one death from breast cancer. By law, a task force grade of A or B obligates Medicare and private insurers to cover a screening test with no cost to consumers. Besides mammography, there are only two other approved cancer screening tests: colonoscopy and pap smears. Both of those have an A rating.
But LeFevre cautions that lung cancer is by far the most complicated screening problem. A single scan can't distinguish between something that's cancer and something that's not. It takes repeated scans and sometimes biopsies.
LEFEVRE: Most abnormalities that are found on CT scan are not cancer, but they do lead to further testing, more radiation exposure, unnecessary anxiety for people worried about having cancer and even risky surgery. We are actually going to do some lung surgery on people just to prove that they don't have cancer.
KNOX: LeFevre says people who have an abnormal lung scan are going to have to be calm, patient and deliberate.
LEFEVRE: This is an anxiety that I have about lung cancer screening. If somebody hears they have a 5 percent chance that this is cancer, and then you say, well, let's wait three months and repeat your CAT scan, if the emotional response is no, let's do something now, then we're going to do a lot of harm in the process of doing a little good.
KNOX: A lot of patients will get unnecessary lung biopsies and even surgery. Dr. Kenneth Lin of Georgetown University thinks the task force is putting too much faith in lung screening.
DR. KENNETH LIN: They rank it with those tests that your doctor, if they're a good doctor, is supposed to bug you about to get done. And I don't feel that this test necessarily meets that criteria. I don't necessarily feel that patients should be pressured into getting this test done. But I think that's what the B recommendation signifies: it ought to be more or less routine.
KNOX: But Tom Murphy, a 61-year-old Maryland man, is convinced that annual screening prevented him from dying of lung cancer as his father did. Murphy, who smoked for three decades, started getting yearly lung scans in 2005 as part of a study. Five years later, a scan showed a spot on his right lung was growing.
TOM MURPHY: Oh, absolutely that scan saved my life. This thing started at five millimeters in January of 2010. And at the point they took it out, it was 1.2 centimeters, you know, nine months later. So I'm very grateful, and I believe to this day that it saved my life.
KNOX: But Murphy still has to get a lung scan every few months to see if something else is brewing. So he's not out of the woods.
MURPHY: I'd like to think that I am. But, you know, when I go down there, you know, they have this thing called scanxiety when you're a cancer patient. Before you - every scan, you go get, you get a little anxious or a lot anxious before your scan. I still get a little anxious before each scan.
KNOX: But in between scans, Tom Murphy relishes the times he can play with his new granddaughter. Richard Knox, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

This story was updated at 1:46 p.m. May 24, 2013.
The son of a former policy adviser to President George W. Bush has been arrested and accused of killing another man with a hatchet at his father's home in Gaithersburg.
At about 12:09 a.m. today, Montgomery County police responded to a reported burglary at a home in the 7217 Cliff Pine Drive in Gaithersburg. The caller, a man, reported that someone had tried to break into the home and that he had killed him.
In the course of their investigation, police learned that there never was a burglary at the home and the caller and the victim knew each other, according to police spokeswoman Angela Cruz.
Police discovered the body of Michael P. Harvey, 25, of an unconfirmed address, in a wooded area behind the home, and detectives determined that a hatchet was used in the slaying. The man was killed inside the house, according to Montgomery County Police Capt. James Daly Jr.
The suspect, Claude Alexander Allen, 20 of 7217 Cliff Pine Drive, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, according to court records. Allen's bond hearing has not yet been scheduled.
The house where the crime allegedly was committed is owned by Claude A. Allen and Jannese M. Allen, according to county land records. A call to the house Friday was not answered.
The elder Allen was arrested and charged in 2006 with making $5,000 of phony refunds to Target and Hecht stores, when he had been serving as a top domestic policy adviser to President George W. Bush. He pleaded guilty in the case against him. Allen spent a career working in the highest echelons of government. He served as deputy secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, secretary of Virginia's Health and Human Resources and worked in Virginia's Attorney General's Office from 1995 to 1998, according to White House records. Bush also nominated him in 2003 for a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit in Richmond, but his bid was sidelined in the U.S. Senate.
Daly said an additional person was in the house at the time of the crime. That person was not related to the suspect. There was no additional information available about the person.
Major Crimes Division detectives are still investigating the death.
A purple tent ahad been set up in the backyard of Allen's single-family brick residence.
The house is in northeast Gaithersburg, near Laytonsville.
Daly said it was unusual to receive a call for a major crime in the area.
"There are not many calls for service in this area," Daly said.
Mavra Diadadis, a neighbor who has lived on the street 22 years said she knows the family. She said they are very kind people.
"Sometimes kids get involved in stupid things and the parents don't know," she said.Staff Writer St. John Barned-Smith contributed to this report.
