But, since Warren himself ... Warren himself just did a post about such things, I figure now's a good a time as any.So, what do you have in your purse/wallet/briefcase/backpack/various pockets on a day-to-day basis?Here's mine:(Clockwise from bag:)-The bag was a Christmas gift from a co-worker, Joe Boxer brand, and by chance it happened to be the perfect size bag for me. The main part even has 2 inner pockets- one fits my wallet perfectly and the other fits the phone I bought MONTHS later.-Sony Walkman X-Series (the exact same model as Warren, actually. I bought it based on his posts about it) and crappy Samsung headset for phone (not pictured: Samsung Galaxy Nexus, just got a month or so ago... couldn't find my damned camera)-Keys-Notebook for personal journaling, Batman wallet (contains $4, standard IDs, library card, various savings cards, and a business card for my parents' berry farm)-Metal tin (from a box of Sleepytime Tea; it contains Tums, nail clippers, hair elastic, safety pin, and Burt's Bees Replenishing lip balm), ear plugs (in white tube), Advil travel pack now containing generic acetaminophen, leather change purse -Sharpie, mechanical pencil, Sharpie pen, and ballpoint (for work), and a sample of Lady Grey Cold-Brew tea (because one day I know I'm gonna forget my lunch and not have cash on me)-Cleaning cloth, lip gloss, spare name tag for work, and back-up battery for my Galaxy Nexus]]> What You Carry Every Day http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=11060&Focus=352130#Comment_352130 2013-04-28T04:47:33-05:00 2015-12-01T16:03:04-06:00 Bombus Hortorus http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=2485 hey, I love these threads!

I use these for when I'm out walking, or if I'm writing but don't mind being bothered.9: Giant fuck-off Skull Candy headphones. I use these when I'm writing and seriously will not want to be disturbed, upon pain of death. They fit much better now that there's almost no hair on the sides of my head.10: Cigarettes.

For more than a decade, agencies have used innovative financing deals, known as Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs), to pay for extensive energy-saving retrofits to their facilities.
But a recent effort by the Energy Department to use an ESPC to finance a data center consolidation is running into headwinds. And a number of agencies are watching the project closely with hopes they too can use ESPCs to consolidate data centers and refresh aging IT infrastructures.
Under an ESPC, a vendor pays the upfront costs of energy-saving retrofits in exchange for payments from energy cost savings over time. The contractor guarantees the energy savings for the life of the contract or pays the balance.
In an unusual application of an ESPC, the Energy Department in July 2011 selected Lockheed Martin to help the agency consolidate its data centers and reduce operating costs all without spending any appropriated funding.
More than two years later, the contract has languished. The Energy Department said in a statement it is still reviewing the contract. But it appears to be the Office of Management and Budget that is holding up the project.
Several House and Senate lawmakers are pressing the Obama administration to let the project proceed.
The action of OMB regarding a single project is creating an impasse across the federal government and sending a chilling effect across federal agencies pursuing data center ESPCs, said Sens. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Al Franken, D-Minn.; and Reps. Peter Welch, D-Vt.; Anna Eshoo, D-Calif.; and Gerald Connolly, D-Va., in a July 10 letter to Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz and Office of Management and Budget Director Sylvia Burwell.
According to one industry executive who asked not to be named, OMB is holding up the project because too much of the projected savings about 70 percent comes from operations and maintenance, as opposed to energy savings. As a result, policy makers are having internal discussions about the role of operational savings in ESPCs, the source said.
Other agencies are anxious to see the matter resolved and move on with their own projects because agencies are under pressure from OMB to close 40 percent of their non-core data centers by 2015, an effort OMB estimates would save $3 billion.
On June 23, the Air Force issued a notice of opportunity for an ESPC to reduce the size and energy use of two of its data centers at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.
And in May, officials at the Air Force Civil Engineering Center told vendors at an industry briefing that computers, servers and data centers are prime targets for ESPCs. Les Martin, the ESPC program manager at the AFCEC, said the Air Force is committed to improving the energy efficiency of its data centers.
ESPCs could be one of the avenues used to make this happen, Martin said.
The Interior Department is also considering an ESPC to consolidate its data centers.
There are some creative ways to essentially fund what are substantial up-front transition costs or capital investment costs and those are things we continue to explore, said Andrew Jackson, Interiors deputy assistant secretary for technology, information and business services.
He said the budgeting process that governs agency operations can be a barrier, making alternative financing arrangements more challenging than in the private sector.
Jeff Sherman, director of Federal Energy Solutions at energy contractor Schneider Electric, said ESPCs are one of the few tools agencies have to complete the data center consolidation mandate.
Once the first few get through the process and other agencies see that it can be a way to make data centers more efficient at no cost, we will see a snowball of projects, Sherman said.
He said ESPCs could technically be used to replace aging IT equipment, since it is an energy conservation measure.
Jennifer Schafer-Soderman, the executive director of the Federal Performance Contracting Coalition, said ESPCs could be expanded to include any electrical device that needs to be plugged in, including computers. But she is not aware of any agency that has tried it.
Roger Flanagan, director of energy services at Lockheed Martin Information Systems and Global Solutions Civil Division, said information technology drives electricity bills and that ESPCs can offer agency CIOs a way to reduce costs without spending appropriated money that could be used for other programs.
The intersection of these initiatives and data center consolidation via ESPC is very much in the public interest, and CIOs want to pursue it, Flanagan said.
He said Lockheed Martin looks forward to begin work on the stalled Energy Department project at the first opportunity.
Some agencies are not considering the use of ESPCs in data centers. For example, the Army has no plans to use ESPCs for that purpose, said Army spokesman Dave Foster.
However if a data center is within a facility that requires energy conservation improvements, it would be considered, he added.

There was a time not too long ago when Evan Dietrich-Smith wouldn't have been the go-to guy for an early scout on an upcoming opponent.
The only undrafted rookie to make the Green Bay Packers' roster in 2009, the center admittedly took his first NFL opportunity for granted. The following year, he paid a heavy price and spent most of the 2010 campaign out of football.
That was until the Packers brought him back on New Year's Eve during the final stretch of their Super Bowl season. ...

"Cancer is an important piece of my life, but I don't feel like I've had cancer. I don't give it more attention than it deserves."
Thyroid Cancer Facts
According to the American Cancer Society, about 45,000 people are diagnosed with thyroid cancer each year in the United States. About 75% of these are women, making it the eighth-most-common cancer in women. Thyroid cancer is seen most often in adults, with two-thirds of the cases occurring between ages 20 and 55.
Although thyroid cancer accounts for about 1% of all cancers, it is becoming more common. At least 450,000 people in the United States have completed treatment or are living with thyroid cancer.
Thyroid cancer is usually a slow-growing cancer. It is one of the least dangerous cancers in most cases, and the five-year survival rate for thyroid cancer is almost 97%.
Thyroid Gland Anatomy
Thyroid cancer begins in the thyroid gland, which is a small butterfly-shaped gland in the front of the neck at the base of the throat. The thyroid is part of the body's endocrine system, a system of glands that control hormones in the body. It normally weighs less than an ounce, and it cannot be seen or felt in most people; however it has an important function. The thyroid makes hormones that help regulate the body's heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and metabolism (the breakdown of food to create energy).
The thyroid has two halves, or lobes, one on each side of the neck. It wraps around the trachea (windpipe) just under the larynx (Adam's apple). A thin strip of tissue known as the isthmus connects the two halves.
Thyroid gland cells are the only cells in the body that absorb and retain iodine. Iodine is needed to make thyroid hormones.
Two kinds of cells are found in the thyroid:
- Follicular cells are the most common. They produce thyroid hormone, which is important for growth, mental function and helping the body create energy.
- Parafollicular cells (also known as C cells) produce a small amount of the hormone calcitonin, which has a minor role to control calcium metabolism. Most parafollicular cells are in the upper third of each lobe.
Thyroid Cancer Types
Thyroid cancer is grouped by the type of thyroid cells where the cancer begins. Papillary, follicular and anaplastic thyroid cancers begin in the follicular cells. Papillary and follicular cancers—the most common thyroid cancers—are sometimes referred to together as differentiated thyroid cancer. They have similar treatment.
Papillary thyroid cancer is the most common type of thyroid cancer, accounting for about 80% of thyroid cancers. While papillary thyroid cancer typically occurs in only one lobe of the thyroid gland, it may arise in both lobes in up to 10% to 20% of cases. Papillary thyroid cancer is most common in women of childbearing age. It sometimes is caused by exposure to radiation.
Even though papillary thyroid cancer is usually not an aggressive type of cancer, it often metastasizes (spreads) to the lymph nodes in the neck. Papillary thyroid cancer treatment usually is successful.
Follicular thyroid cancer accounts for about 10% of thyroid cancers. Like papillary thyroid cancer, follicular thyroid cancer usually grows slowly. Its outlook is similar to papillary cancer, and its treatment is the same.
Follicular thyroid cancer usually stays in the thyroid gland but sometimes spreads to other parts of the body, such as the lungs or bone. However, it usually does not spread to lymph nodes. It is more common in countries where diets do not contain enough iodine.
Hurthle cell carcinoma, also called oxyphil cell carcinoma, is a type of follicular thyroid cancer. Most patients diagnosed with Hurthle cell cancer do well, but the outlook may change based on the extent of disease at the time of diagnosis.
Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is the only type of thyroid cancer that develops in the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland. It accounts for 3% to 10% of thyroid cancers. Medullary cancer cells usually make and release into the blood proteins called calcitonin and/or carcinoembryonic antigen, which can be measured and used to follow the response to treatment for the disease.
Sometimes medullary cancer spreads to the lymph nodes, lungs or liver before a nodule is found or the patient has symptoms. MTC can be treated more successfully if it is diagnosed before it has spread.
There are two types of MTC:
- Sporadic MTC is more common, accounting for 85% of medullary thyroid cancers. It is found mostly in older adults and is not inherited.
- Familial MTC is inherited, and it often develops in childhood or early adulthood. If familial MTC occurs with tumors of certain other endocrine organs (parathyroid and adrenal glands), it is called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2). (link to more information). If you have a family history of MTC, it is important for you and your children to be tested for the gene that causes the disease.
Anaplastic thyroid cancer is the most dangerous form of thyroid cancer. It is makes up only 1% of thyroid cancers. It is believed that anaplastic thyroid cancer grows from a papillary or follicular tumor that mutates further to this aggressive form. Anaplastic thyroid cancer spreads rapidly into areas such as the trachea, often causing breathing difficulties.
Anaplastic thyroid cancer sometimes is called undifferentiated thyroid cancer because the cells are so different from normal thyroid tissue.
MD Anderson has a specialized clinic with experts that can quickly diagnose and treat anaplastic thyroid cancer. Learn more

Am hoping this posts... last few days have been interesting... I tried to post to your entry about your new garden blog and it ate it -- alot. I think it burped too... really loud. I gave up. Anyway, looking forward to a new season of posts, pictures and fun things to learn. Have a great nite farmgirl.ReplyDelete
Hi Sher,ReplyDelete
Plotting? Very likely. Let's just say there is never a dull moment when sheep and a Donkey Doodle Dandy are involved.
Hi Soleilina,
Welcome to the farm! Well, until you get your own, you can e-visit this one anytime. We're open 24/7. : )
Hi Lindy,
Actually, I was hot on the trail of a girlfriend for Dan when I got sidetracked by the two llamas I ended up buying.
But just yesterday Joe and I were discussing the possibility finding a suitable girl donkey. She'd have to be small like Dan, though. I don't want some big b#$%& bossing him around. What Dan would really, really like though? A puppy of his very own.
Hi I.G.O.,
That's good news--Dan needs to look tough.
Hi Sha,
Unfortunately, I don't think there's any hope for properly training Dan's little woolly charges. : )
Well, hello Mindy (the chicken-ess). Welcome to the farm! I had no idea we had nobility visiting. But, um, sorry. At this point, Donkey Doodle Dandy has far more fans than the hens, so equal photo space will not yet be awarded to them. (Unless of course they hijack the blog again.) Looking forward to having you grace us with your presence again soon.
Hi Heather,
LOL, it sounds like you've been having even more trouble leaving blogger comments than the rest of us. (Though yesterday I was asked to do 13 different word verifications on my gardening blog before I finally realized I could just quit--without the comment posting of course.) Too funny about the eating and burping. Glad you finally got this one to post--and thanks for the laugh.
Is Dan thinkingReplyDelete
"Im gonna tell my Mum on you?"
Hi Abe/Happy,ReplyDelete
Oh Dan doesn't report to me. He's on his own when it comes to taking (staying in?) control, LOL!

The Packers signed practice squad defensive tackle Jordan Miller to the active roster today and cut linebacker Vic So'oto.
Maybe Miller should have had an inkling that a promotion was in the works last week in listening to the words of defensive line coach Mike Trgovac.
I had a long talk with him (Friday) about making sure hes not in practice-squad mode that hes learning the defenses, said Trgovac. Some guys get on the practice squad and they sit there and watch everything but they dont hear and listen to everything. I like Jordan Miller as a football player. Now, Ive never seen him in a game so that remains to be seen, but hes a good football player.
Miller might get his first taste of NFL action on Sunday against his old team, the Chicago Bears. He spent 15 games on the Bears practice squad last season, then was elevated to the 53-man roster for the season finale, although he was inactive.
The Packers are thin on the defensive line with injuries to C.J. Wilson (knee) and Mike Neal (shoulder) -- neither might be ready for action against the Bears. The Packers played with just four healthy defensive linemen on Sunday vs. Detroit veterans B.J. Raji and Ryan Pickett and rookies Mike Daniels and Jerel Worthy.
Miller will add some bulk to the unit. The Packers officially list him at 309, but Trgovac said he goes 317 pounds and can play both the run and the pass.
He can tie people up, said Trgovac.
Miller signed with the Bears as an undrafted free agent in July 2011. He spent the 2012 preseason on the Bears roster but was cut on Aug. 31.
During his practice squad stint with the Packers, Miller has been getting a lot of work in the trenches.
Hes playing offensive line and he plays defensive line, said Trgovac. The poor kid is dead after practice. Hes a good football player. Hes got some good skills to him. We havent had the time to train him on our stuff. I think he can be a good little pass rusher in there. Hes got some good skills with his hands and his hips.
Lets put it this way: In the drills and stuff like that, I like what I see. I would want to reserve my call until I see him in a game.

ATTICA, NY - Officials from the state Department of Environmental Conservation were at Attica High School Thursday to talk with residents about Hillcrest Industries, the controversial recycling facility, that's been spewing smoke, ash and a foul odor for the past year.
In the household of George and Mary Carrick, who are married and live only a few blocks from Hillcrest, homemade chicken soup and polish sausage sandwiches can be a usual dinner special.
Although the Carrick's have lived in the village for 13 years, they've had thoughts of leaving the area, because of the terrible odor from the company.
"I just retired and I can't enjoy my life, I'm stuck in the house because of that smell and the soot and everything," said Mary Carrick, who has recently joined a group of residents who have agreed to sue Hillcrest and seek damages against the company.
Carrick joined dozens of residents at Attica High to question top officials of the DEC. The DEC says that it's working to make Hillcrest follow the law and get proper permitting and maintenance. The agency says that a penalty will be issued to Hillcrest and a big part of the fine will be from the glass and plastic materials that weren't allowed on site.
"There will be some sort of settlement - either a consent order or a court order and there will be a penalty. It doesn't matter that we haven't had a fine up until now, because the fine will include all of the violations," said Maureen Brady, a regional attorney for the DEC's Buffalo office.
Meantime, the agency says it's been inspecting the company as it tries to repair equipment and gets in full compliance with state and federal laws. According to the DEC, Hillcrest has made enough progress to be able to turn on its furnaces, which emit gases. One official at Thursday's meeting says that this is happening without proper testing to make sure it's safe.
2 On Your Side's Jeff Preval asked why the furnaces are operating without evidence that the furnaces are safe to run. James Strickland, a regional engineer for the DEC said, "With the improvements that they make to the bag house and the air pollution equipment they should be in compliance."
But the DEC can't be sure of this and says proper testing should be done soon. The DEC also adds that it's important for Hillcrest to make revenue so it can continue to finance repairs.
Meantime, residents like Carrick need answers from agencies, like the DEC, which are in charge. She says she feels like local and state systems of government continue to fail the community.
The DEC conceded to residents at Attica High, that Hillcrest's operation has been dangerous to the community's health, but that air testing has not shown such a conclusion.
There is no monitoring of air quality right now. Hillcrest could be back online fully by the end of the year, if it gets proper permitting and clearance from the state. The company tells the DEC that it's trying to transfer the materials that are on its property out of county so it can disposed.
Village officials shouted down DEC officials at the meeting when they didn't get straight answers. This is just one sign that the state and local authorities have not been working well together to solves issues that are important to the community.

Connect with the nation's history through Civil War sites, museums and other attractions that bring history to life and provide visitors with a one-of-a-kind glimpse into the country's past.
Day one: Walk hallowed ground at the Manassas National Battlefield Park. Stand in the footsteps of "Stonewall" Jackson and envision the troops marching along the open land during two Civil War battles. Watch a 3-D movie that documents the battlefield after the soldiers left or visit the park's visitor's center to see the 45-minute "Manassas: End of Innocence" film narrated by Richard Dreyfuss. Enhance your Civil War tour with a trip to Ben Lomond Historic Site. Just a few miles from the battlefield, Ben Lomond features a slave quarter and a historic home that was used as a hospital during the Civil War. Read the graffiti soldiers left behind, handle the instruments doctors used to treat patients and hear the stories of the family who lived on the property.
Day two: Explore Old Town Manassas, which features historic sites, unique shops and restaurants where visitors can dine al fresco. In Old Town, visit the Manassas Museum, which interprets Northern Virginia Piedmont history through artifacts, documents, videos and images. Don't forget to pick up a souvenir at the museum's gift store, Echoes. Visit the old Manassas Courthouse-the site of the 1911 Peace Jubilee- then venture just outside Old Town to Mayfield Earthwork Fort, which Confederate troops used to defend the vital railroad lines at Manassas Junction.
Day three: Explore Leesylvania State Park where history and nature unite. This park was once home to Henry Lee III, a Revolutionary War hero who fathered Civil War Confederate General Robert. E. Lee. Situated on a peninsula,Leesylvania is known for its excellent fishing and canoe opportunities. Or, hike to a scenic overlook to see the remains of a Civil War Confederate gun battery. Discover what it's like to be a Marine at the National Museum of the Marine Corps. Land a helicopter in Vietnam, experience boot camp and test your shooting skills at the M-16 laser rifle range. After, grab lunch at Tun Tavern or the mess hall. Continue your trip through history at the Weems-Botts museum in Dumfries. Home to Parson Mason Weems, biographer of "The Life of Washington," visitors can learn the true story behind the tale of the cherry tree.

Bethenny Frankel's rocky marriage to Jason Hoppy has been the focus on this season of her reality show, and as she sets sail on the high seas she admits that she is in rough water.
"We're off course," Bethenny says off her marriage of two years on Monday's "Bethenny Ever After" episode.
PHOTOS: Bethenny Frankel, With Husband Jason & Their Baby
As Bethenny and Jason set off on a "marriage counseling" boat ride with another couple and their therapist, the 41-year-old soon sees parallels between their day on the water and her troubled relationship.
The parallels start to become evident as Jason steers the boat and the passengers worry that they're just going in circles.
PHOTOS: Bethenny Frankel Strips Down Into A Skimpy Bikini In Miami
"That's what we're doing in our lives; we keep having the same argument over and over again," Bethenny says.
"Jason thinks that it is a metaphor for the fact that we keep going around in circles in our relationship that we keep having the same argument over and over again."
PHOTOS: Reality TV's Hottest Stars
Captain Jason jokes that there is one thing he's learned on the trip: "I learned that I'm a moron for coming on this boat!"
However, despite the couple's non-stop fighting, Jason is confident he and Bethenny will remain together through hell and high water.

"Where do I want to be in 10 years? Married to her. Whether she believes it or not," he declares.

November 29, 2015
We're ending the weekend on another gorgeous note with highs closing in on 70 for some, upper 60s for others.
Gusty wind out of the south at 15-25mph will pick up through the afternoon Sunday. Paired with increasing clouds overnight, that wind will help keep temperatures mild through Monday morning, with lows in the upper 40s/low 50s.
The cold front will arrive in western Kentucky by the afternoon and then stall out before making a final push toward the east by early evening. Ahead of the front, showers will last all day Monday, along with more gusty wind. Temperatures will climb into the mid 50s for highs during the afternoon, but once the cold front swings through, a noticeable cool down will follow
That cooler air will stick around through midweek, as Old Man Winter does his best to stir the pot one more time.
Hang in there, only 10 more days till the official start of Spring!

The Jbl look good with their adjustable tweeter volume and angle, Jbl is a high end brand respected in PA and pro-audio circles, it is a 2 way system (a 3-way is un-nessesary in this size/ power of system)
it has the efficiency of the speaker (92db) which helps(if you apply 1W, the speaker will produce 92db, at 1meter, on-axis ), and the pioneer is an outgoing model, lastly the Jbl is a bit less expensive than the Pioneer
Watch out for the 2ohms impeadance and that the amp can drive that (whether built into the head unil or seperate)
you would normally use the head unit to drive the door speakers(there is usually 4 "seperate" amps/ outputs in a head unit) and a seperate amp to drive the sub.(if your amp was designed for a sub it will only have one output (for the sub) anyway ) really loud/ powerful serious installations might use multiple seperate amps
Thanks a million for the info. That made my options a bit clearer now.
The amp and sub combo I have is a Blaupunkt GT470 amp and a 12'' Edge amplifier that was in my old car. Reckon the amp would be able to drive the speakers if the headunit cannot. Might be a bit trickier to do, but it might make the sound a bit better. Any thoughts?

I am often asked whether or not I believe the diagnosis of fibromyalgia really exists. It is a controversial medical diagnosis, although also very common. The FDA recognizes fibromyalgia and there are two drugs that have FDA indications to treat the disorder. Despite this, many doctors are not sure it exists.
According to the CDC:
"Fibromyalgia is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by widespread pain, abnormal pain processing, sleep disturbance, fatigue and often psychological distress. People with fibromyalgia may also have other symptoms;
- Morning stiffness
- Tingling or numbness in hands and feet
- Headaches, including migraines
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Sleep disturbances
- Cognitive problems with thinking and memory (sometimes called "fibro fog")
- Problems with thinking and memory (sometimes called "fibro fog")
- Painful menstrual periods and other pain syndromes
It is thought that fibromyalgia is a rheumatological condition, meaning that it is inflammatory and perhaps auto-immune. It is sometimes described as a low level "simmering" auto-immune disease involving the muscles and fascia (sheets of connective tissue supporting the muscles).
The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 2010 criteria for diagnosis includes:
- Widespread Pain Index (WPI) >7 and a symptom severity scale (SS) >5 or WPI 3-6 and SS >9.
- Symptoms have been present at a similar level for at least 3 months.
- The patient does not have a disorder that would otherwise explain the pain.
But then immediately after stating there are no other disorders present to explain the pain, the CDC states: "Fibromyalgia often co-occurs (up to 25-65%) with other rheumatic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS)." So – up to 65% of patients with fibromyalgia have other conditions that can potentially explain the pain.
Also, take a look again at the list of other symptoms that can occur with fibromyalgia – sleep disturbance, for example, and irritable bowel syndrome. (Yes, I noticed the duplicate entry on "fibro fog" - perhaps the person from the CDC writing this page is a little forgetful.)
Curiously absent from the CDC discussion of fibromyalgia is reference to myofacial trigger points (MTP). At one time these were thought to be diagnostic of fibromyalgia, but the syndrome has expanded over the years, and the relationship to MTPs is optional at best. The existence of MTPs themselves has been questioned – perhaps this is just another non-specific manifestation of chronic pain, combined with a little confirmation bias.
Whether or not you think fibromyalgia is "real" depends on your definition of a medical diagnosis. Ideally a medical diagnosis is a discrete pathphysiological entity – there is something specific and definable going on, involving a specific part of the anatomy, a particular pathological process, or a physiological function outside of healthy parameters. The term "disease" is best reserved for these specific entities.
However, at times patients have clusters of symptoms that appear to occur often together. Our pattern recognition kicks in and we can recognize a recurring "syndrome," however we may not understand the underlying cause (what we call "etiology"). This may be because the etiology of the syndrome is simply not currently understood, or it may be because the syndrome is not discrete or homogenous.
Even if a syndrome does not represent a single disease, it may still be real. The syndrome may be the final physiological effect of multiple possible causes – a final common pathway of symptom development.
Complicating our classification scheme of diagnoses, even discrete and uncontroversial diseases often have overlapping signs and symptoms with other diseases. Few symptoms are "pathognomonic," meaning that they occur with only one disease and by themselves are diagnostic.
Many symptoms, diseases, and syndromes are what we call "co-morbid," which means they exist together and reinforce each other. There is no simple line of cause and effect, but a complex web of interacting and self-reinforcing morbidity.
For example, sleep disturbance is listed as co-morbid with fibromyalgia, but does the sleep disturbance cause fibromyalgia or does fibromyalgia cause the sleep disturbance? Perhaps they cause each other. Perhaps cognitive symptoms and chronic pain are both caused by depression, which in turn is worsened by the pain and poor sleep.
Further, if you treat any entity in this web of symptoms, the other symptoms tend to get better. Improve sleep in fibromyalgia patients, and their other fibromyalgia symptoms improve.
So – is fibromyalgia "real?" So far no one has established a specific discrete pathophysiological etiology that is fibromyalgia. Further, many of the symptoms of fibromyalgia are nonspecific and are highly co-morbid with other disorders that might be causative. From that point of view fibromyalgia does not exist as a specific disease or etiology.
However, fibromyalgia can be a useful term to describe the complex web of comorbid symptoms described above – chronic pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance and cognitive symptoms. It needs to be recognized, however, that this is a very heterogeneous group and different patients may arrive at this symptom complex in different ways.
From a practical point of view, when treating patients with fibromyalgia (whatever you think that means), practitioners identify and treat each comorbid factor. Treat the pain, treat the sleep disturbance, and treat the depression. Factors that might be contributing to the symptom complex (obesity, vitamin deficiencies, arthritis, etc.) also need to be identified and treated. Often significant lifestyle changes may be necessary to really turn things around, such as engaging in regular exercise (which can be challenging in many patients).
The two medications indicated for fibromyalgia, Lyrica and Cymbalta, are both also indicated for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain. Saying that they also treat the pain of fibromyalgia really doesn't add anything specific – they are still just treating pain. They are not targeted at any specific underlying cause of fibromyalgia.
I think it is reasonable to treat fibromyalgia as a syndrome – a comorbid complex that is frequently encountered. My strong reservation, however, is that fibromyalgia not be treated as a specific disease. That has not been established. Perhaps it is a placeholder on our current ignorance, which will eventually be rectified. Perhaps it will forever be a syndrome without a specific pathology or single cause.
In the end the label itself is not that helpful (although patients often feel better being given such labels), other than as a convenient short hand. You are still left individually evaluating and treating the specific symptoms and comorbid factors in individual patients, no matter what you call them.

Discuss anything related to Golden State Warriors basketball here

I cannot find any updates on Andre Iguodala, Festus Azeli, Tony Douglas. Is there a thread on this or a site which post updates? Any idea on their estimated return dates?

Well Iggy is out indefinitely, meaning there is no real estimate to when he is returning
I haven't heard an update on Ezeli's knee in a while. I assume he is out at least until 2014. Hopefully we can get him back by February.
Tony Douglas is suppose to be coming back soon. His injury was considered the less severe of the three. Possible in a week or 2.
Short article in the San Jose Mercury today (Sunday 12-1) that Jackson said Iguodala is "closer and closer" to returning. Exactly what that means in terms of time, I don't know, but at least it sounds good.

I know Iggy reportedly had a hamstring injury and so I would think management would give him more time, even if he claim he is ready.
Douglass played a little against North Carolina. I am hoping that Igoudala is back for the game on the 19th against SA. I would like to see the team healthy and at full strength just one time and beside, I am going to the game!! Really want a W for this one.
I read something a while back that Ezeli will be out until February, however I cannot recall what or where and hopefully some new information will be out soon. I sure hope it is before February.
The announcers said in tonight's game, and I don't know where they got their information or were just talking, that the W's are hoping for Iggy to be back next week. I am sure they are, let's just hope that is correct. All the injuries aside, the team has to show more energy at the start. These second halves comebacks will not work. They are nice when they get the W, but they have to get their heads in the game from the opening tip and not constantly trying to dig themselves out of a hole. Beside my heart can't take these all the time.
Not much but ESPN has an article today. All it says is hopefully soon.

The national unemployment rate remained unchanged in June, but veterans of the post-9/11 era saw a continued decline in their jobless rate, which fell to 7.2 percent, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.
The jobless rate for Iraq- and Afghanistan-era veterans has fallen for the fifth straight month. In January, the rate for post-9/11 veterans was 11.7 percent. By May, it had dropped to 7.3 percent.
Overall, veterans continue to be employed at higher rates than the genral population. The jobless rate for veterans of all ages was 6.3 percent in June while the national unemployment rate remained at 7.6 percent for the third month in a row.
In May, the unemployment rate for veterans of all eras was 6.6 percent.
The economy gained about 195,000 jobs in June, largely in areas related to tourism, including leisure and hospitality, as well as retail, health care and the financial sector, according to the report.
Roughly 4.3 million people in the U.S. are considered to be long-term unemployed, meaning theyve been jobless for more than six months. That statistic remained essentially static in June.
The June jobless rate for male veterans was 6.1 percent; for women, 7.6 percent.
The jobless rate for post-9/11 male veterans was 6.8 percent, down from 7.8 percent in May. The rate for post-9/11 female veterans appears to have nearly doubled from May, from 4.9 percent to 8.9 percent. Historically, however, the rates for that demographic have fluctuated wildly from month to month, perhaps due to the small sample size in the survey.
While the unemployment rate of post-9/11 veterans continues to decline, this generation continues to have the highest rates of unemployment among veterans.
In June, the jobless rate for Persian Gulf War veterans was 4.9 percent, for World War II, Korea and Vietnam veterans still in the job market, 6.1 percent, and for veterans of other service periods, 7 percent.

|Geumseonsa Temple (Seoul) (금선사 (서울))
|VisitKorea does not guarantee the quality of products or services introduced on its site and is not responsible for any direct or indirect losses resulting from use of said products or services.
|Bukhansan, officially designated a national park, is the highest mountain in the Seoul area. Beloved not only for its unique urban location, the mountain is also treasured for its natural beauty and cultural assets. Also known as Samgaksan (meaning "Triangle Mountain"), Bukhansan has three major peaks: Baegundae (the main peak), Insubong to the north, and Mangyeongdae to the south.
One of the most prized cultural assets on the mountain is Geumseonsa, a Buddhist temple located along the hiking path to Bibong (one of the lesser mountain peaks). The temple was established by Great Monk Jacho (penname 'Muhak') who lived from 1327 (late Goryeo period) to 1405 (early Joseon period).
One day when Monk Jacho was out searching for a suitable place to establish the capital of the new Joseon dynasty, he came across a plot of land and was immediately struck by a strange and sacred energy. Recognizing that the land was full of the energy of Buddha himself, the monk set about the establishment of Geumseonsa Temple.
Even today, Geumseonsa is known as a place of miracles and legends. One of the more famous tales is of Monk Nongsan, who trained and meditated at Geumseonsa and was later said to have been reincarnated as King Sunjo of the Joseon Dynasty.

Yankees starter CC Sabathia went 8 2/3 innings to beat the Baltimore Orioles in the first game of the AL Division Series on Sunday night.
- Filed Under
During the Orioles' magical season, the bullpen was their greatest strength. For the Yankees' inconsistent offense, Russell Martin was often the biggest scapegoat.
But everything starts over in the postseason, and the Yankees reasserted themselves on Sunday.
Martin's ninth-inning, tie-breaking home run off Orioles closer Jim Johnson opened the flood gates, pushing the Yankees to a wild 7-2 win in Game 1 of the AL Division Series. Camden Yards' largest crowd of the year sat through a nearly 2 ½-hour rain delay, only to head for the exits when a tight game got out of control in the ninth. ...

BUHLER, Kan. (KWCH/CNN) - Marriage isn't always easy, and a Kansas couple married for more than 60 years would be the first to tell you that.
But the couple's family says the husband and wife stood by each other no matter what happened in life, and in death.
To the very end Melvin Cornelson knew how to impress a woman, and in his life there was only one.
"They never dated anybody else," said their daughter, Candi Sawatzky.
He and wife Doris said "I do" 62 years ago, and grew old together and died together.
After a battle with cancer, at the age of 85 Melvin died last Thursday, and Doris, like she had been for more than six decades, was by his side.
But within hours, Candi says her mom began to fade.
"She sat with us all morning and talked and kind of tried to plan a few things for daddy and then she went to bed at noon and just never got up," said Candi.
Their family has a theory.
"I think that he said enough was enough, 'I'm going to go,' and that gives her that permission to go," said Candi's husband, Randy Sawatzky.
Because Melvin and Doris weren't going anywhere without each other.
"I have great pictures in my head of what they're doing," said Candi.
And that, is why even in death, the people Melvin and Doris left behind, can do nothing other than smile.
"They're happy; I know they are," said Candi.
Doris was 80 and had recently gone into hospice care because of illness.
The couple lived in Oklahoma until family brought them to the nursing home in Buhler to be closer.

Should same-sex marriage be legalized in Pennsylvania?
Whats next, we legalize child molesters or allow people to fornicate with animals in public... This will just allow the door wide open for to much! people just dont think or only care for themselves. What happens when some child predator demands rights to legally be with children because he feels he has right!What about people who deem sex with animals ok..... wake up people.Why does anyone need a piece of paper to be happy!

Tryduck, either you are very stupid, or you are making a comment that's a parody of the inanity surrounding opposition to marriage equality. If the latter, I salute you. If the former, I urge you to get acquainted with the idea of consent. Adults can consent to sexual relationships and marriage. Children and animals cannot. In no way, shape, or form would marriage equality change the legal status of sex with children or animals.

Same sex marriage is gross and disgusting and should not be allowed.

Jones and his wife, Barbara, visited the Purdue campus in West Lafayette, Ind., on Sunday to meet with officials about the Boilermakers' head coaching position and were in Boulder, Colo., on Monday to discuss the Colorado job. He is also considering staying at UC, where he has been the head coach for three years and is under contract through 2017.
UC president Santa Ono, contacted late Monday afternoon while Jones was still in Boulder, said he could not get into specifics about what the school is prepared to do to keep Jones.
"I certainly think the world of Butch," Ono said. "I consider him part of the family here, the leadership team that we have here. I'm very pleased with his performance. I think he's a fantastic coach. I think he fits very well at the University of Cincinnati. I think it's the right place for him."
Jones and his wife were scheduled to leave Boulder at 5:30 p.m. Mountain Time on a flight back to Cincinnati, but sources said he agreed to remain later. According to reports, he arrived at Lunken Airport at about 1 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday.
"It's been a productive day," Colorado athletic director Mike Bohn told reporters.
Jones is scheduled to appear at a press conference at 1 p.m. Tuesday in UC's Lindner Center to preview the Bearcats' Dec. 27 game against Duke in the Belk Bowl in Charlotte, N.C. Neither Jones nor UC athletic director Whit Babcock returned calls Monday.
UC has gone 23-14 under Jones, with a win last year over Vanderbilt in the Liberty Bowl. The Bearcats won a three-way share of the Big East championship in 2011 and a four-way share this season. UC was 4-8 in Jones' first season in 2010.
At the end of last season, UC extended Jones' contract through 2017 after he reportedly turned down overtures from Illinois, North Carolina and UCLA. His new contract increased his guaranteed annual compensation from $1.1 million to $1.575 million, with annual increases through 2017 when he would be paid $2.05 million in the final year of his contract. The contract includes a $1.4-million buyout if he leaves UC before Jan. 1, 2013.
Jones reportedly is torn about his decision. Friends say he and his family love Cincinnati and want to remain here, but that he felt compelled to listen to the offers from Purdue and Colorado. If he decides to leave UC, Colorado is believed to the frontrunner for his services.
UC's struggle to find a suitable conference home is considered a major factor in Jones' decision to entertain other offers, along with the school's inability to locate the money to upgrade Nippert Stadium. Colorado, which plays in the Pac-12 Conference, reportedly offered Jones a five-year contract worth $13.5 million, with upgrades to 53,613-seat Folsom Field, the Dal Ward Athletic Center and the team practice facilities.
According to sources close to the situation, Jones has been in discussions with UC to re-do his contract, with the stipulation that Nippert Stadium will be renovated, although it's not known where that money - estimated at $60 million to $70 million by University Architect Beth McGrew - would come from.
If Jones leaves, it will be another major blow to the UC athletic department, which last week learned that its attempts to leave the wobbly Big East Conference for the Atlantic Coast Conference had been rebuffed, with the ACC choosing to invite long-time UC rival Louisville instead. That left the Bearcats to compete in a league that has lost its status as one of the top six football conferences in the country and with no automatic tie-in to a major bowl game when the current BCS contract expires at the end of next season.

The tragedy of a California girl's surgical complication that resulted in oxygen deprivation and brain death has escalated the challenges of "life" and "care" and "funding."
Jahi McMath, 12, suffered from sleep apnea and had a medically indicated tonsillectomy to reduce the obstruction to her breathing while she was asleep. Despite care in a superior facility, an uncommon but known complication occurred. She hemorrhaged and her oxygen-starved brain died. Her heart and lung activity are being maintained by machines.

My Sisters Stuff is a home decor store that also carries various items including clothes, furniture, jewelry and quilts.
My Sister's Stuff is a vendor driven business in which 10 different vendors set up selling areas in Bowles' store. The items have a theme in that they are household or personal items that people would be interested in for themselves or their homes.
"The name of my store was based upon my mother and my aunt," said Bowles. "They both were involved in sales and they would always say, 'My sister has some stuff,' and that is how I picked the name."

Video: Driver sought in deadly hit-and-run of dog
PHOTOS: Florida's rejected license plates aren't always offensive
St. Petersburg, Florida -- Detectives are asking for the public's help finding the driver of a car responsible for killing a dog in an alleyway Monday.
Investigators say a witness saw a blue 4-door sedan head west in the alley behind 5149 3rd Avenue North around 7:51 a.m. A moment later, the same car was seen speeding west back down the alley while a Jack Russell terrier, named "Snoopy," was running in front of it.
The witness said the driver of the car never stopped and appeared to run the dog over on purpose. The witness did not get a good look at the driver of the car. However, police say it's likely the person lives or knows someone in the immediate area.
"Snoopy" died at the scene and the owner told deputies he had slipped out from his fenced-in backyard not far from where he was hit.
Investigators were able to recover a home security camera from a neighbor with a view of the alley that recorded the incident.
Anyone with information should call the non-emergency number at 727-893-7780, Text-A-Tip to 727-420-8911 or leave a confidential tip at 727-892-5000.

CLEVELAND -- The Christmas season in downtown Cleveland will have a retro look.
On Saturday, the Horseshoe Casino Cleveland that opened in May as Ohio's first casino unveiled holiday decorations inspired over the years by its home, the old Higbee's department store.
An original 24-foot artificial tree has been refurbished as the centerpiece of the casino decorations. Nine thousand new lights were installed on the tree.
Inside the casino, there are eight custom-built archways inspired by Higbee's. But because of casino rules, only people 21 and over will get to see the interior decorations.
The lighting of the tree and outside decorations was part of Cleveland's traditional Thanksgiving weekend holiday festival on Public Square.

Come stay with us at Grand Canyon B&B and experience a great addition to the attractions of Northern Arizona.
Eric English, of ABC Channel 15 in Phoenix, wrote the following article in 2010:
'WILLIAMS, AZ – A new attraction is trying to grab some of the millions of visitors that flock to the Grand Canyon every year. Bearizona is a 150 Acre 'drive-through wildlife park' that promises to give you a close encounter of the wild kind. Visitors drive their own vehicles through the park, which is loaded with big horn sheep, buffalo, and of course, bears–all roaming about giant pens.
"I really hope that when people come to Bearizona, they make a connection with the animals," Vanessa Stoffel, the park's chief operating officer said. The park is planning for the future, raising young wolf, fox and bear cubs from infancy. Staff plan the addition of bobcats, lynx and brown bears, and hope to grow into one of the larger North American wildlife collections. They want to give visitors a new respect for the creatures.
"See the animals in their natural environment, and then when they return to wherever they are from, in the woods or in a park, they look around and they sense the importance of that habitat to the animals," Stoffel said.
Bearizona was designed to showcase environmentally friendly construction as well. "We've tried to build the park as green as possible." Many of the animal's habitats are created from recycled materials.
The security cabin is a recycled RV, and a giant waterfall is made from several old busses and cars. "A lot of the materials that we used in our waterfalls and rock features are old junkers and busses. The scrap metal is the framework for our big rock features," Stoffel said. The addition of solar panels and a water reclamation system will help lessen the park's impact on the Kaibab Forest, while allowing people to see some other natural wonders that can be elusive.'
As of today there are two new additions. Doc and Sadie were born early this Spring. See their 'birth announcement' as shown on Phoenix NBC Channel 12 at: http://www.bearizona.com/bearizona-welcomes-channel-12-news-team . More new borns are expected as we get closer to Summer.
The drive-thru park opened the 10th of Mar for the 2011 season and will be open daily from dawn to dusk until 'snow covers the ground and stays (usually around the end of November each year).

- Sinusitis
(Sinus Infection; Acute Sinusitis; Chronic Sinusitis)
|Sinus Infection
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Risk Factors
- Recent viral infection
- Smoking or exposure to second-hand smoke
- Other sources of indoor or outdoor air pollution
- Allergies or asthma
Abnormalities of the facial bones, sinuses, or nasal passages, such as:
- Deviated septum
- Nasal polyps
- Cleft palate
- Large adenoids
Certain chronic illnesses, including:
- Cystic fibrosis
- Kartagener's syndrome (a chronic lung disease) and immotile cilia syndrome
- Wegener's granulomatosis—rare disease that causes blood vessel walls to become inflamed
- Sarcoidosis
- HIV infection and other disorders of the immune system
- Diabetes
- Head injury or a medical condition requiring a tube to be inserted into the nose
- Cocaine and other drugs inhaled through the nose
- Facial congestion or fullness
- Facial pain or pressure that increases when you bend over or press on the area
- Headache
- Cough, which is often worse at night
- Nasal congestion not responding well to either decongestants or antihistamines
- Runny nose or postnasal drip
- Thick, yellow, or green mucus
- Bad breath
- Ear pain, pressure, or fullness
- Fever
- Fatigue
- Dental pain
- Holding a flashlight up to the sinuses to see if they light up
- CT scan or x-ray of the sinuses to look for fluid in the sinus
- Endoscopic examination of the sinuses—threading a tiny, lighted tube into the nasal cavities to view the sinus opening
- Removing sinus fluid through a needle for testing (rare)
- History of 10 or more days of colored mucous, or visibly infected mucus
- Tenderness over the sinuses
- Fever
- Difficulty smelling
Home Care
- Hydrating—Drinking lots of fluids may keep your nasal secretions thin. This will avoid plugging up your nasal passages and sinuses. Saline nasal sprays or irrigation may also loosen nasal secretions.
- Using steam treatments—Keep a humidifier running in your bedroom. Fill a bowl with steaming water every couple of hours. Make a steam tent with a towel over your head. This will let you breathe in the steam.
- Nasal and sinus washes.
- Antibiotics—Used to treat bacterial infections.
Over-the-counter pain relievers.
- Note: Aspirin is not recommended for children with a current or recent viral infection. Check with your doctor before giving your child aspirin.
- Antihistamines—Help sinusitis symptoms if they are caused by allergies.
- Intranasal corticosteroids—These are inhaled directly into your nose through a nasal spray. Corticosteroids may help relieve congestion by decreasing swelling in the lining of the nose in people with allergies.
- Decongestants—Use either decongestant pills or nasal sprays to shrink nasal passages. Do not use nasal sprays for longer than 3-4 days in a row.
- Guaifenesin—Helps you cough up secretions, but hydration is more effective.
- Repair of a deviated septum
- Removal of nasal polyps
- Functional endoscopic sinus surgery—a lighted scope is used to enlarge the sinuses to improve drainage
- Balloon sinuplasty—a tube with a balloon attached is inserted into the sinuses (the balloon is inflated to open the sinus passages)
- Have allergy testing to find out what things you are allergic to and to learn how to treat your allergies.
- Avoid substances you know you are allergic to.
- If you have allergies, stick with your treatment plan.
- If you get a cold, drink lots of fluids and use a decongestant.
- Use sinus washes as directed.
- Blow your nose gently, while pressing one nostril closed.
- If you must travel by air, use a nasal spray decongestant to decrease inflammation prior to takeoff and landing.
- Use a humidifier when you have a cold, allergic symptoms, or sinusitis.
- Use HEPA filters for your furnace and vacuum cleaner to remove allergens from the air.
- Avoid cigarette smoke.
