dav_marine72 replied to dav_marine72's topic in Medication – Prescription Drugs-Health Issueshttp://www.marylandaddictionrecovery.com/the-dangers-of-long-term-suboxone-use The VA's new recommended treatment for non-cancer pain.
dav_marine72 posted a topic in Medication – Prescription Drugs-Health IssuesHi Everyone, Man I feel like an idiot missing all this information over the last few years on the VA's crackdown on opiates. I was going to an outside provider for pain care until January of this year. I have been on what I call a blind sided suboxone regiment since then. Suboxone actually seems to help some people with mild to moderate chronic pain and the side effects are minimal as far as sedation. Here is why I recommend not switching. They didn't tell me at first but they had to put me in as an opiate addict to get me the script. I was going through withdrawals at the time because they would not connect me back to the VA pain clinic I used to go to or I probably would have been able to deter this. Now 8 months in for me my pain is worse than ever. Honestly it seemed to help a little better in the beginning. Now that it doesn't and I want to switch back to regular opiates no one will touch me in the VA. I never abused my opiates in the 7 years I used them. I never ran out early. Yet now I am deemed an opiate addict. I had to get off my benzo because they will not allow you to take any form when on subxone. My benzo used to help greatly with my severe pain and it's well documented in the medical community. I have to attend mandatory group meetings where I have not found one person yet who has chronic pain and didn't abuse their meds. It seems like a great drug if you do have an opiate problem so I'm told. Sad part is there are probably many people who could benefit from suboxone who have mild to moderate pain. I'm TDIU because of my back and leg pain and lived a much better quality of life on regular opiates. Now it seems I shot myself in the foot. I wouldn't recommend switching based on the stigma that comes with it and the fact that if it does not work for you, you may not be able to switch back. I also found presentations during my research with the VA and pain clinics and it seems most of them now recommend subxone first for any non-cancer pain. Just my luck. Now I understand why I was sent to mental health and not a pain clinic. Just my input.
dav_marine72 posted a topic in VA Medical Centers Navigating through itHi Everyone, Thanks for taking the time to read this. I am at the end of my line again with VA healthcare and I'm just wondering if I have any options. I don't know how I get myself into these messes but I seem to do a good job of it. Okay so I am 100% P&T. I'm 94% on the schedule and have had TDIU since 2009. My main SC disability is my back / leg issues / pain. I am currently rated 40% Ortho, 40% left leg nerve issue, and 20% right leg nerve issue. Not sure if it matters but I am 50% mental, 30% asthma and a bunch of 10%s. I had two unsuccessful back surgeries L3-4 L4-5 disectomy (2000) and L3-4 L4-5 L5-S1 fusion with titanium cages (2009). I had a spinal stimulator implanted in 2010. I have been in pain management on high doses of opiates under the care of a non-VA provider 2006-2009 / VA pain clinic 2009-2011 / then back to non-VA provider 2011-2014. I probably should have just stayed with the VA pain clinic but I had access to insurance and quite frankly I don't have to beg or get judged when at my non-VA provider. The problem started in Jan. 2014 when I lost access to insurance. For 2 months I paid $100 no insurance office visit fees and $500 a month for my medications all while seeking care from the VA for this mind you. I went to my PCP doctor at the VA and asked if she would re-write my prescriptions if I kept going to my outside provider. She declined saying she didn't feel comfortable and didn't like the fact I have a valid CT medical marijuana license for my spinal conditions. I explained my situation and told them I didn't have the money to keep paying out of pocket and I needed to re-connect with the pain clinic ASAP. She kept running me around, asking for a pee test, blood test, etc. She called my outside Dr. and got him mad at me. Finally I got an appointment to a pain management screening with 3 different VA providers which ended up being about 2 months after I sought treatment again for this. They recommended sending me to the ORC (Opiate Reassessment Clinic) and rotating my opiates and possibly trying methadone. I had no idea what the ORC was and was told my local VA clinic now had it's own pain clinic. The pain clinic I was with 2009-2011 was an hour drive away when my local VA clinic is 20 minutes. So I expected to be going to this new pain clinic when I got an appointment. When I arrived I realized I was going to Mental Health in a different area I had never been to and thought it was strange. I asked if this was the right place for the ORC and they said yes. I should have ran right then. I sat down with two doctors and was told they wanted to put me on suboxone for my pain. Mind you I was in full blown withdrawals by this time as I did not have the $600 to pay out of pocket again and had run out of my meds. I asked them what suboxone was. They said it was a partial agonist Opiate. I was like what is that. They said it does not have any of the euphoria effects like Morphine or Fentanyl patches that I had been on. Honestly I hadn't felt euphoria from my meds since like 2007. My main goal is pain reduction and trying to have some quality of life. They told me only addiction doctors could write this script in the VA hence why I was there. Again being in withdrawals I wasn't thinking too clearly. So I end up starting subxone and they increased me to the max dose of 24mg a day which I have been on ever since. I actually felt a little better for a while taking it. My body seems to get used to opiates quick and I tended to rotate them somewhat often with my outside provider to get the best pain relief. Then I saw the doctor again and he told me that he had to put down that I was an addict to prescribe this drug to me. I could have went through the roof. I was ready to blow my top. I told him I still had a good amount of pain by then and he thought maybe going to a subxone group meeting would help because some of the patients in there have chronic pain. He said maybe they could help me with coping skills. I said sure why not. Well once I started going I realized that 99% of the people in the group were heroin addicts. I don't have any problem with that per say but I never touched heroin, never ran out of my prescribed opiates, never asked for early refills, no abuse, etc. I suddenly realized I had really gone down a wrong turn and went through months of major depression and just went with the treatment program. Talking to the counselors in the group they thought I should go on Methadone since my pain wasn't being addressed and felt suboxone wasn't for pain. After researching a ton I see that suboxone does help many people in chronic pain just not me. I spoke to the doctor who had prescribed it for me and he thought methadone was not an option. He asked what had worked in the past. I told him Morphine, Oxycodone, Fentyal, etc. Then he asked why I was sent to him? I said I had no idea I was just trying to re-connect with the pain clinic. He then asked if I was sent there by a court or because I was abusing opiates? I said no. He told me if my story checked out he would call a doctor in the pain clinic at the other VA location and see if they could put me back on regular opiates. Then when I saw him again I asked for a status. He said that doctor didn't call you? I said no. He said thats weird he should have by now. I asked him what his discussion was and he said the doctor didn't think it was a good idea but would call and discuss it with me. So here I sit three weeks later without a response and after calling the patient advocate who said she would give that doctor a message to call me. I also found out through getting my records that the initial pain intake team labeled me with substance abuse because I was using medical marijuana legally in CT. I have since stopped using the medical marijuana because when on opiates I only needed it now and again. I don't like the feeling it gives me using it daily. I also found a presentation from the doctor that was supposed to call me where he believes in almost all situations suboxone should be used for non-cancer chronic pain. Hence probably why he doesn't want to re-visit. Sorry for the long story but there was no other way to tell this insanity. I know I can get fee basis to see an outside pain clinic as they have agreed to before. The problem with that is paying for the medication. I know it says you can bring your scripts into your PCP and see if they will re-write them but they already said they would not do this for me. Unfortunately I am on SSDI and didn't know I could have gone on Medicare back in Feb. of this year. Now I would need to wait until January with it not kicking in until July 2015. I feel like I was sorta duped with no one at the VA explaining to me exactly what was going on. Now I seem to have no options. I also run the risk of being refused meds in the future because of the addict labeling. It just seems like being 100% P&T, never abusing my meds, having documentation up the you know what they would be willing to help me with my pain. The RO found my back and leg condition to be the main reason for my TDIU. I feel as I should have some option to complain to someone in authority (not patient advocate) that I'm not being treated for my pain. I'm very depressed / disturbed over this whole thing. It's making my mental condition much worse. They also took away my benzo because they will not give suboxone with one yet they will give regular opiates. I feel like I'm back to early 2000's as I'm having daily panic attacks and stress because of the severe pain which is why I was put on a benzo in the first place. wish I could go in a time machine. Thanks for listening to my book. Any advice / feedback is appreciated.
dav_marine72 replied to jeffs17's topic in Success StoriesCongrats. That is a miracle. I got TDIU first before getting SSDI benefits. I had to go to the admin hearing with a judge as someone above had to. I think the judge was sympathetic to Veterans but it still took over a year.
dav_marine72 replied to marinemp1978's topic in Success StoriesCongrats and I agree with John. Your back is only 0%? I got TDIU in 2009 and they put I was scheduled for a review exam in 2013. I don't know if 4 years is their magic number lately or what. In 2013 I was given a bunch of exams for remands and after they rated that they awarded me P&T. Again not sure if they are doing TDIU for 4 years and then considering P&T but your case sends exactly like mine in those terms. Luckily or unluckily I have static disabilities so it was probably an easier call for the P&T from the RO. I'd appeal for P&T Chapter 35 benefits (DEA) as John has recommended. With PTSD they can always say you got better. Better to keep the pressure on as you talk about with an IME or keeping VA medical appointments. Sounds like your on the right track. Good luck.
dav_marine72 replied to rmoreno's topic in Success StoriesCongrats man. I'd check the full break down to make sure they rated you properly. Your talking like a $700+ difference in monthly pay. If I read this correctly your looking at about a year of back pay. So around $8000 + retro + $1207 monthly moving forward. The reason I say check their reasoning is you never know when your injuries will turn into arthritis, etc. Better to stay on top now especially if you have any problems working. Congrats again!
dav_marine72 replied to hmcquade's topic in IMO Independent Medical OpinionThat is outstanding. What was the Dr's specialty? I had two IMO's done for $4000. Then the BVA tried to dismiss because I was never examined. It got me a Joint Remand from the U.S. Court so I guess the 4K was worth it. This doctor is in Mass. huh? I'm right in CT.
dav_marine72 replied to USMCTanker's topic in Compensation & Pension ExamsHey Devil Dog, Welcome. Have they rated your PTSD yet? They are supposed to look at all your VA records. Talk to DAV and find out where you are in the process. Once you get service connected and get rated a % you need to see if they are rating you properly. If not you just have DAV file a notice of disagreement NOD with the rating. If your more recent medical documentation warrants a higher rating they can point that out and try to get it increased. If you should have been rated higher from the start they can argue that. Make sure you get the NOD submitted as soon as possible and within the one year appeal period to keep your initial rating date in tact. Make sense? Semper Fi
dav_marine72 replied to dav_marine72's topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits ResearchThanks. I always forget about IRIS. Yes I don't trust anything I see from the VA whether on the phone or in writing. Hehe.
dav_marine72 posted a topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits ResearchI'm just wondering if anyone has opened a claim lately or ever and never received a response? I opened a claim in April 2014 for two secondary service connections. All the evidence was in my VA medical records including the doctors saying the conditions were from my SC back and neurological issues. I submitted using the new fully developed claim method. As I read it if they decide it needs further evidence, etc. it just gets kicked to the regular claim process. I get an update on May 22 2014 saying a decision was made and there is a letter in the mail via ebenefits. So naturally I figured ebenefits was off it's rocker. So I called the 800 number and they said yes they made a decision on those issues you should get a decision in the mail within a few weeks. Then he digs deeper into the claim and says hmmmm this is weird. There is no letter in the system showing the decision and their reasoning. So I said well did they award service connection? He says I can't comment on that until you get the letter. So I said well you said there was no letter. He says good point. Then he says it looks like they updated your remand on the same day. They also updated their case about a possible ratings reduction. He says all three cases were updated on the same day. Then he says I'm not sure what they are doing here. Sorry. So I received a letter about them continuing my TDIU and P&T. Yet I never received a letter about my remand or the new service connections. It's all tracked and documented so they can't say I didn't submit. I'm just wondering if I should submit a NOD or an inquiry as to where their decision letter is.
dav_marine72 replied to Slowlane's topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits Research14 years on appeal for 4 increases. It's not just the wait, its the ignoring of evidence. The USCAVC said they messed up. Still in limbo.
dav_marine72 posted a topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits ResearchHey Everyone, Has anyone else received a form asking to verify your dependents or your allowance will be taken away in 60 days? Man first they try to reduce my benefits now this. If they are doing this to everyone how many Vets wont get this in the mail? Don't bother looking at my 14 year old remand. Seems a little retaliatory. I don't like to throw out the conspiracy theories but this is a little crazy. Anyone else get this?
dav_marine72 posted a topic in Appealing Your VA Disability Claims NOD, DRO, BVA, USCAVCHey Folks, I have been reading some posts about a new law that went into affect a couple of years ago where no mention of a decision is a decision? What is this law? The reason I bring it up is I have a joint remand from the USCAVC in 2009 for 4 issues going on 14 years now. I thought some movement was coming as I was told a new decision was being made on my case. The RO had already made one decision in July 2013 bumping up a combined 10% for neurological symptoms of my back from 2002 to 40% for my left side and 20% for my right side. However, they said the examiner did not comment on my disability prior to the 2013 exam. The whole reason the remand was there was because they ignored evidence and most of their exams from 2000 - 2008 for my back were thrown out by the court lol. I'm sure I went from mild neurological symptoms to overnight severe when their exam was done :) Anyway my lawyer at the time had appealed their July 2013 decision. We never heard back. Then they tried to take my TDIU away (I'm 94.4%) and my P&T in January 2014. They sent me a decision a few weeks ago calling it a special mandate in my case. They decided my TDIU and P&T were intact. That was a relief but I since looked at the decision again. This is the part that now concerns me. They wrote at the end this is to be considered all claims inferred or raised from the special mandate. I'm working on a new appeal letter currently. So is this their new way of saying we deny your claims back to 2000 again without saying it????
dav_marine72 replied to Spanman's topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits ResearchDon't get discouraged. If I could give any advice to anyone either starting their fight or continuing on with the VA is to always appeal if you have a case. I started my plight in 1995 and after 19 years I have 13 service connections. The VA tends to get very confused and makes possible mistakes as the number of aliments grow with a Veteran. Luckily I appealed all along the way and now that I can't work I'm 100% P&T. It seems with me every time a decision is made either by the RO or the BVA they give me a little more. I did my own case for years and I'm back on my own again. The biggest mistake I made in the earlier years was bombarding them with statements about what they missed. Although you do need to bring up the errors, just appeal on time and make sure all your evidence is in. The smaller your case file the better. My file size gets brought up everything the BVA sees it. Now, most of my file is straight up evidence but I did get frustrated for a while at missed evidence and sent in a multitude of lay statements because I was in disbelief how evidence could be ignored. Although you do need to submit lay statements try to make them short and sweet as they say. I would recommend talking to multiple VSO's if possible. Early on I would just sign with whoever and leave it in their hands. All VSOs are not the same. Most of all the name of the game is patience.
dav_marine72 posted a topic in VA Disability Claims and Benefits ResearchHi Everyone, As my case grows more complicated everyday I am reviewing my 7 + volumes of evidence. I'm trying to figure out if I have any weight to getting a decision for 10% to go back further than 2008. Here are the facts: 2002 - Submitted for service connection of hypertension secondary to chronic back pain. Denied initially. 2004 - Service connection granted for hypertension secondary to back pain and eczema and an increase for asthma to 30% awarded on August 10, 2004. Oddly enough I received a second letter which was a SOC. That letter explained why I was given 30% for asthma and denied higher ratings for my back, right foot, left foot, and chronic right testicle pain on appeal since 2000. It also denied service connection for a mental condition (Which later was service connected). 2005 - On April 20, 2005 I received a form from the RO asking if I agreed with their decision on the back, right and left foot, chronic testicular pain, hypertension, and eczema. I sent the form back in April 25, 2005 stating I did not agree with any of their decisions. During the time in between I went into the RO and asked for a status on my case. I was told everything was at the BVA including the hypertension issue. 2008 - The BVA made a decision denying higher ratings for my back, right and left foot, and chronic testicular pain which I appealed to the USCAC. At that point I went and asked where my eczema and hypertension decisions were. I was told I did not appeal them and they were final decisions. I told the RO I never received another SOC about the hypertension and eczema. They told me I didn't appeal. So I raised the question of what happened and they put in for increases from 0% for both. 2012 - The BVA increases my hypertension rating to 10% and continues eczema at 0%. They specifically addressed the fact that I was wrong and never appealed the initially ratings. Here is the kicker. They used evidence in my record from 2001 and 2002 to award the 10%. I had been on medication since 1997. So the question I have is if they used evidence available at the time of service connection to rate me 10% in 2012 is that an error on their part which could be re-opened? I'm not going to chase the eczema because thats not as strong. It just gets me mad I was sending letters to them while the case was at the BVA before their 2008 decision including statements about my hypertension and eczema. At the time I didn't realize they needed to make another decision at the RO before the issue could go to the BVA. Very confusing with all my service connections going on. My back, feet, and right testicle pain are still on appeal from 2000 so that 10% back to 2002 could mean something eventually. Not sure if this is a true error worthy of bringing up or if I should just eat it and walk away from this one. Thanks in advance.

COLLEGE STATION -- Two more Texas A&M women swimmers qualified to compete in the two fastest meets in the world following action at the Texas Senior Circuit #4 over the weekend in Austin.
Sophomore Alia Atkinson (Pembroke Pines, Fla.) officially qualified to swim in her second consecutive Olympic Games after posting a time of 2:31.28 in a 200-meter breaststroke time trial on Sunday evening. Atkinson, 20, smashed the qualifying standard she needed to achieve by more than two seconds. The four-time Big 12 breaststroke champion will swim for her birth country of Jamaica in Beijing in August.
Freshman walk-on Maria Sommer (Brenham) earned the right to compete at the U.S. Olympic Trials in the 50-meter freestyle on Sunday evening. After just missing the time she needed on Friday morning by .04, Sommer, 18, qualified for the finals of the 100-meter freestyle on Sunday and used the first 50 of that race to get the time she needed. Sommer recorded a time of 26.31 in the first half of her 100 free to go under the U.S. trials 50 free standard of 26.39.
Also at the Austin meet, junior Christine Marshall (Newport News, Va.) turned in arguably the top performance of her career. Marshall hit the wall in 1:58.36 in the 200-meter freestyle, second behind Olympic gold medalist Kirsty Coventry of Zimbabwe. To put Marshall's time in perspective, her effort would have easily won the 2004 U.S. Olympic Trials and earned her the bronze medal at the 2004 Olympic Games.
The Texas Senior Circuit #4 meet represented the final opportunity for A&M swimmers to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Trials. The Aggie women will send 10 athletes to the U.S. Trials. One 2008 signee, Megan Latone (Austin), will swim at the trials as well.
Three other Aggies, Alia Atkinson, Triin Aljand, and Julia Wilkinson, have all qualified to swim in the 2008 Olympics for Jamaica, Estonia, and Canada, respectively.
The U.S. Olympic Trials will take place June 29-July 6 in Omaha, Neb. The 2008 Olympic Games will run from August 8-24 in Beijing, China.

The Nebraska State Patrol said Wednesday that 37-year-old Lisa Conrad died from exposure after she walked away from a stranded vehicle near Alliance early Tuesday morning in a severe early-spring snow storm.
Conrads car became disabled approximately a mile south of Berea on U.S. Highway 385 as she was going home from work in Alliance.
She was last heard from around 12:30 a.m. Tuesday morning, when she called her husband to say she and their son were leaving the vehicle to walk to their home in Berea.
In talking with Brandon, we were able to learn he walked from his familys home in Berea to where his mothers car was stranded, said Captain Mike Gaudreault, Troop E Commander. He and his mother then left the vehicle and attempted to walk back to their house, but became disorientated in the blinding snow and never made it.
Collins said at some point, Lisa Conrad was unable to go on. Her body was found around 5:40 p.m. Mountain Time Tuesday in a field about a half mile west of U.S. 385 off of Johnson Road. Local residents, searching the area on snowmobiles, found her. Brandon was able to make it to an abandoned farm house about 2½ miles away and the snowmobilers found him alive.
This is a very tragic situation," Gaudreault said. "Brandon did everything he could to help his mother. He is a brave young man, and we are thankful he is alive. Our hearts go out to the Conrad family.
Berea is an unincorporated community about 10 miles northwest of Alliance in Box Butte County.

I could see Mario Cricket happening one day.
I'm 14 so the idea of a Wii remote shoved up an asshole is humorous to me.

Before the Dragon Lady is about to shoot the spies, remember that Alex originally was in a silver jumpsuit. When she is about to shoot them, you could see Alex wearing her original yellow jumpsuit.
Alex drops her drink in Clover's shirt, but when the camera backs to the team, there's no juice and Clover's dress is clean.
In the part where Jerry is about introduce Kirt, you see Sam in the Mall store dress, but when she gets into the car she somehow is changed into her regular cloths, the ones she was wearing at the mall. Then, watch closely as after Jerry says goodbye, watch Sam's outfit, it turns back into the dress she was wearing at the mall.
In the scene where the spies are reunited in the water-ski game, Alex changes her outfit to a silver jumpsuit. When they all jump out of the game, Clover and Sam come out wearing their jumpsuits too, except when they were kidnapped they were still wearing their "Magazine Editor" Outfits.
Also, as Lady Dragon is being downloaded by Jerry, Alex is still wearing her silver jumpsuit. But as the three walk to him, it instantly changes to her regular yellow one!
1. If you look at the license plate on KIRTT (the special transforming car) before the giant pinball plunger launches, it says JAMES. But look at the license plate later on -- it now says KIRTT.
2. If the controller to the Lady Dragon's video game system looks familar, it is. The same controller was used to control the "killer credit card" from the episode "The New Jerry".
Jerry: Good morning ladies. Looks like you've literally shopped until you dropped, eh?
Clover: All I can say is you better not have pulled us away to do your laundry, Jerry.
Clover: What I can't understand is why they hand out bottled water at a marathon, but not the at biggest sale of the year!
Lady Dragon: You girls have spunk. I hate spunk!
KIRTT (the special transforming car) is such an awesome vehicle for the spies! Its transformations are similar to the vehicle transformations of the old 80s cartoons MASK and The Transformers!
Lady Dragon's video game "Dune Races" is similar to the game "Space Paranoids" from the movie Tron.
The Kirtt is a reference to "Transformers".

Fifty-two percent of public transit agencies are "somewhat satisfied"
The Homeland Security Department is doing fairly well at sharing security updates with public transit agencies — but needs to reduce redundancies, close gaps and add transit agencies to the networks, according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office.
The GAO surveyed 80 rail, bus and ferry transit agencies to check their overall satisfaction with the two information-sharing mechanisms designated as primary -- DHS' Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN) transit portal and the Public Transit Information Sharing and Analysis Center, along with 10 other sharing mechanisms.
Overall, 53 percent of those who responded were "somewhat satisfied" with the security information they received from all the mechanisms while 22 percent were "very satisfied," GAO said in a report issued Sept. 22.
DHS official defends HSIN Next GenAre you on OMB's high-risk IT list?
Large transit agencies were more pleased; 46 percent of them were "very satisfied," while 16 percent of mid-sized agencies were very satisfied.
Rail operators generally rated the information-sharing more highly: 33 percent of rail operators were "very satisfied" compared with 13 percent of the non-rail operators.
Public transit agencies, in explaining their responses, noted potential redundancies in the information received from multiple sources and recommended streamlining the information flow.
They also reported that HSIN was their least favorite mechanism by which to receive security information, citing concerns about lack of user friendliness, difficulties in access and questionable information value, the GAO report states. Department officials said they have been dealing with those problems in the HSIN Next Generation project.
DHS' Transportation Security Administration and industry formed a public transit working group in 2009 to develop recommendations to improve security information sharing.
GAO made recommendations to improve the operations of the public transit working group and the HSIN:
DHS officials agreed with the recommendations.

Canyon de Chelly
Our friend, who we met last year in Sedona, met us for two days of exploring around his hometown of Chinle, AZ. The small town is located in the heart of Navajo Nation and it's filled with natural wonders mostly unknown to the outside world. George knows the landscapes like the back of his hand and that meant we saw a few places that you can't find on any maps.
The area is probably best known for Canyon de Chelly which is a series of sand-stone canyons that are off-limits to non-navajo people. There's a single trail which leads down to "White House Ruins" and offers a chance to peak at how the Anasazi people lived nearly 5000 years ago.
Of course we hiked this trail, and explored places that would have been impossible to find on our own.

SRP resumes repairs to canal near South Mountain
PHOENIX — The clean-up continues after heavy storms hammered the Valley for the past few weeks.
Salt River Project crews have worked for the past week to get water flowing back into the Laveen area of southwest Phoenix. Storms significantly damaged one of the utility company's laterals in last week.
"Laterals come off of the western canal — the smaller, cement-lined ditches that you see — and those are the ones that were significantly damaged by a lot of erosion," SRP spokesman Jeff Lane said.
Even though water is flowing through the laterals again, it will take a few more weeks to complete the storm restoration construction.
Lane says Phoenix residents should expect to see SRP crews continuing the project in the area of Dobbins Road and Seventh Avenue to 55th Avenue until Aug. 29.

Founded in 2005, the Mountain Fund aims to create healthy, vibrant mountain communities where people have access to healthcare, education and economic opportunity in an environment where human rights are valued and respected. To achieve this goal, we sponsor community-based initiatives that prioritize respect for the local culture and the environment.
Created 3 health clinics and 1 hospital in rural Nepal. Our current flagship project is called Her Farm at www.herfarmnepal.org. Her Farm is located in rural Nepal and provides a safe place for women and their children to live, farm and thrive. They can control their desitinies by controlling the land they live on and collectively own. The Mountain Fund received the prestigious Sir Edmund Hillary Medal in 2010.

Many thanks to Mountain Fund for proving me with such a great opportunity to shadow doctors in Kathmandu's local hospital during a two-week Pre-med program. Doctors are willing to share their experience and explain students medical background of cases of numerous patients. You are allowed to attend various wards in the hospital and ask doctors about their profession. A simple motto applies there: The more you ask and the greater interest you demonstrate, the more you can learn. It is a great way to become aware of a health care system in a developing country and issues that Nepalese doctors face every day. Moreover, you get a chance to meet new people - both Nepalese and volunteers from other countries, which will make your horizons broader as well. I can only recommend joining Mountain Fund as a volunteer - I believe you will not regret it.
It's been three weeks now since I left the Her Farm in Nepal and every day since I have thought about those people kindly and my experience there fondly. These are truly humans chasing the good in life and finding happiness in helping others. There was not one day I spent in my two weeks at the Her Farm where I 1) wanted to leave or 2) felt unloved by these once strangers. I came there to help where I could but it paled in comparison to what these wonderful people did everyday for me. What a great organization and a hard working non-profit that truly makes the most of everything they have and everythings they're given. 10/10 would recommend again.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
From the moment I got off the plane, the Nepali people made me feel as comfortable as possible. The sisters are very hospitable and make sure you always have enough to eat. They always try to plan a tour around their wonderful city and make sure you leave satisfied. Overall, my experience to Kathmandu through the Mountain Fund could not have been anymore thrilling.
It is because of the impeccable people working with The Global Mountain Fund that I had a remarkable experience in Nepal. Clearly an sane human being would be nervous packing their bag and heading halfway around the world to immerse themselves in an unknown culture, surrounding themselves with strangers, but once I got to nepal, these women made me feel like I had known them my whole lives. Each and every person at her farm and helping hands community hospital made me feel right at home, which made the experience that much more enjoyable. The program definitely returns as much as you give, meaning, the more you give, the more you get. It may not be returned in extravagant experiences, but you can learn more from these incredible women in one day than you can imagine. This experience has proven invaluable to me, not only for the impeccable medical experiences I gained, but for the memories I made with fabulous people from around the world and the knowledge I gained from the souls of truly wonderful people. Also exploring in Nepal wasn't half bad. Trekking was spectacular -- I went to EBC, but the annapurna circuit was wild apparently. Pokhara was beautiful and I did a 12 day meditation retreat that changed my life in more ways than I can explain.
Her Farm and the women that run it, truly have taught me more than I could learn in any classroom. Not only about myself but about the ebb and flow of life, and for that I am eternally grateful.
It was a real delight to get to know you and host you in Nepal. Hope to see you back again some day.

I honestly can't say enough good things about my experience with Her Farm. Going halfway around the world to stay with people who were basically strangers was nerve-wracking to say the least, but from the second I stepped foot on the grounds I felt like I was at home. The staff here are truly TRULY amazing, hardworking, and selfless people doing absolutely fantastic work for their community. The children and adults who live here are incredibly kind and accepting, and even on the days where I worked the hardest at the Farm I was so elated to be there with such caring people who could make even the most mundane task fun. Being here was a truly eye-opening and wonderful experience.
Being at the farm was a very unique experience. The people were very welcoming and hospitable at all times. It was a great place to stay and volunteer at.
It was my great opportunity to achieve best experiences and skills during my working period in The mountain fund as a staff.
Well I feel proud to be little part of the mountain fund because the mountain fund has been really big helping hand for all difficult lives in mountain.

I came to know Her Farm and The Mountain Fund during difficult times of restoring Nepal after the earthquake. Sunita and Scott were organizing an earthbag building workshop for volunteers willing to rebuild villages using natural earth-conscious and earthquake-resistant technologies. Workshop that I participated in took place at their farm in Dhading, and I got to know these wonderful people at that time and kept in touch with them ever since. Sunita, who overcame her own humble conditions and became an advocate for women liberation, education and happiness in overly traditional, rigid areas of Nepal where tradition is still more important than human happiness, is helping poor women to become independent and raise their children in the environment of equal opportunities. Scott, who has been helping villagers and mountain communities for years, has been introducing advanced agricultural and building technologies into the underdeveloped and poor communities, as well as teaching local kids English, computer skills and cinematography.
The farm is vibrant, functional, self-sufficient, and full of joy and laughter. They are also doing a rare job of successful rehabilitation of mentally ill women who had no other place to go - a task that nobody else in Nepal is ready to undertake. As a project manager and a non-profit worker with experience in different non-profit fields, I know how difficult it is to have a successful project of this scale in a country like Nepal - to tell you the truth, it is close to impossible! That is why I salute my friends and wish them all the best in all of their endeavors. They are doing something truly amazing.
I had an amazing time with everyone at the farm. We came as a big group and they were more than ready to deal with us. They had the projects ready and participated alongside us during every endeavor. You wont find another real life experience like this. They fed us well, took care of our stomachs and made sure we were fully rested throughout our time there. Would definitely recommend going to the farm for anyone who wants to get a better insight on the world!
Thank you Jessica and the Aggie Mountain Volunteer group from Texas A&M. Come back soon

Working with the Mountain Fund was an unforgettable experience. The people alone made the trip worth the while. Being at the Kathmandu house and Her Farm, it is hard to see the people who work there as an organization because they come off far more strongly as a family. Volunteering with them, I was able to become part of that family. The sisters are some of the most genuinely thoughtful and caring people I have met and it was always a pleasure to be around them. They took great care of me and accommodated me in every way possible.
The organization sets itself apart in a few ways. First, everyone who works there cares deeply for Nepal. I witnessed the love and concern for the country from everyone I spoke to. Second, the mission is gravely needed. The issues Mountain Fund address are serious and I'm glad people are making efforts to fix them. Admittedly, the organization is too small at the moment to attempt to change practices on a national level, but each person they help makes the effort worthwhile.
Being at Her Farm was a much needed change in perspective. It's hard to fathom what people in other countries go through and live like without experiencing it firsthand. The learning aspect alone made me appreciate my trip, but the opportunity to contribute to the cause as a volunteer made it all the better. I highly recommend the Mountain Fund and Her Farm in particular for anyone who wants to experience and/or help Nepal.

There is an InterBase database that I'd like to connect to using Excel. I have the database name, address, and login info. IB, as I understand it, is a form of SQL.
Using the SQL connect mode under "Data" in Excel does not work, however. I would guess that I need some kind of driver to go between the two as InterBase is proprietary.
I can successfully ping the server, so I know it's there. I have verified that the login info is correct.
What steps do I need to take to get Excel to work?

To the editor:
I am writing to bid my fellow town of Sunset Beach taxpayers a fond farewell. Following the lead of Palm Cove developers, our family has asked Sen. Bill Rabon to sponsor a local bill de-annexing our house and lot from the corporate limits of Sunset Beach.
I am and always have been an avid fisherman.
I am proud of the heritage that our rivers and waterways have provided the people of Brunswick County. That heritage is hundreds of years of a fishing and shellfish industry that has provided work and fed countless Brunswick County citizens. It is a major part of who we are in coastal Carolina.
Your editorial in the June 9 edition calling attention to watercraft safety is greatly appreciated. Shallotte River Sail and Power Squadron (SRSPS), an affiliate of the United States Power Squadrons (USPS), is dedicated to the education of recreational boaters for the safety and well-being of all boaters.
Humane Lobby Day is now held in Raleigh. I have always made an effort to attend, as it is an opportunity for voters to meet with elected officials to discuss animal welfare issues or ask questions one might have.
I will not attend Humane Lobby Day this year. Let me tell you why.
There is an unusual bill before the North Carolina General Assembly: Senate Bill 875. It is interesting, and perhaps instructive, that the bill makes no mention of the reason de-annexation is requested. We must ask what sense it makes to take two ends of an island in the town limits and put those island ends outside. The residents of those areas will be using the town's police services, the town-maintained roads and will have water and sewer only through the actions and grace of the town of Sunset Beach.
I just want to say how proud and blessed I am to see West Brunswick High School reach out to South Brunswick High School when they lost a classmate in a tragic accident May 25. When teenagers make mistakes and wrong choices, it will be in the news and on TV. But it is not often you hear about the good things they do that don't seem to be news.
This is in response to Stan Rogoff's letter in the May 26 edition. I didn't write to address Thomas McGrath on the national debt or David Rouzer's failure to vote for higher taxes, but rather his obsession with The New Deal. Get over it! FDR's New Deal, LBJ's Great Society and President Obama's Hope and Change — all of them are failures.
A well-intentioned news release issued last week by the state Department of Transportation, which should have brought a smile to my face, instead brought out the grouch in me.
It began: "A summertime bike ride is a great chance to get outside and enjoy North Carolina's beautiful scenery. As part of Gov. Pat McCrory's 25-Year Vision to enhance travel safety and better connect North Carolinians to recreation opportunities, the state is working to make sure that cyclists can ride safely this summer."

20 signs your NBA team is tankin'
You don't need Bimbo Coles to let you know if a team is dumping games. Here are 20 signs.
Updated: March 4, 2003, 6:02 PM ETPage 2 staff
Maybe Bimbo Coles is just a little bitter. Or maybe NBA teams really do want LeBron James badly enough to deliberately lose games.When he was released by Cleveland last week, Coles said that the 11-48 Cavaliers are dumping games to increase their odds of landing the top pick in the 2003 NBA draft ... and the franchise savior in King James that comes with it. "As much as they say they're not trying to lose games to be in the LeBron James race, it's obvious they're trying to lose ...
