If you love good bread, this is worth every penny and more
July 15 2004
This review is from:
The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread (Hardcover)
This book is a real education in bread baking. You'll learn the science behind the process; as another reviewer stated, you'll feel like you are sitting in one of the author's classes at Johnson & Wales University. You'll learn various dough-shaping techniques, including tips that I otherwise would never have known, like how to create surface tension so that the loaf will rise up and not just out. Basically, you will learn everything you need to know to create really great bread and you'll learn it in an engaging, easy-to-read manner from a person who obviously has a real (and contagious) love for good food.
You may find as I did that to begin with you will have to do a lot of flipping back and forth in the book, to review particular processes. However, once you learn how to shape a baguette or how to judge the dough's gluten development, as examples, you won't have to keep going back to review that information and you'll be able to follow the recipes with more flow.
The Poolish Baguettes are to die for. I often make a batch when I have company (since a good deal of the work is done the day before) and let me tell you, if you want to see people REALLY SAVOR their food, give them a warm loaf of this bread!
Of the other recipes I've tried so far, my other favorite is the foccacia.
Another reviewer felt like you had to have a state-of-the-art kitchen to use this book. I must disagree, as I felt Mr. Reinhart went out of his way to teach the user how to recreate (to a reasonable degree) the commercial baking process, including steaming the loaves to create that delectable crunchy crust.
If you love good bread and want to know how to achieve superior results baking it yourself, don't hesitate a moment to buy this book.
Smart Couples Finish Rich: 9 Steps to Creating a Rich Future for You and Your Partner

Very helpful; much of it timeless advice
March 10 2004
This review is from:
Smart Couples Finish Rich: 9 Steps to Creating a Rich Future for You and Your Partner (Paperback)
There were three things I especially liked about this book.
The first was the way the author presented the fact that small things do add up. In the beginning of the book, he states that most people overestimate (financially) what they can accomplish in a year and underestimate what they can accomplish over many years. He includes graphs that illustrate this dramatically.
The second was the chapter on values. This chapter had a number of exercises for each partner to complete independently. Then, together, they can begin to draft a plan for their finances that embraces the values they each hold most closely. If the financial plan is customized to fit the values of the particular couple, taken together, it makes all the sense in the world that it will be easier and more satisfying to LIVE with that plan and carry it out over time (without either of the partners sabotaging the plan).
The third is somewhat tied into the first point I mentioned. It is a chapter called "The Couples Latte Factor." This chapter discusses "small," daily expenses and how, if a couple decides to eliminate or reduce even one or two of these daily expenses and invest that money instead, it can result in a lot of money, over time. This and most of the other chapters include real-life examples of couples whose experiences illustrate the principles being discussed.
I recognized the value of all of this advice right away as I was reading it, but initially felt a bit overwhelmed, thinking: "This is great, but how am I going to do it ALL?" Because I imagine that other people may have the same feelings, I will share the answer we ended up coming up with. A little at a time. I still haven't gotten up to investing 10% of my income in my company's 401(k), but as a couple, we ARE very near to reaching our goal of setting aside a year's worth of expenses in an emergency account and we HAVE adjusted the amount of life insurance we carry and had estate documents drafted by an attorney. Once we do have the complete year's worth of expenses set aside, I'll change my 401(k) investment to 10%.
Is this the order Mr. Bach or another financial planner would advise us to do things in? I don't know. I DO know that doing things the way we have, gradually following more and more of his advice has GOT to be better than being paralyzed and doing nothing...which is what we would have been in danger of doing if we hadn't taken it a little at a time.
A book I would recommend in conjunction with this is The Laws of Money, the Lessons of Life by Suze Orman.
Prussia's Glory: Great German Marches
5.0 out of 5 stars
"Functional" music
March 5 2004
This review is from:
Prussia's Glory: Great German Marches (Audio CD)
I bought this CD for the following reason:
I had decided to start up a walking program and I wanted some music to walk to. I read the following suggestion for walking music: Marches! (To give credit where credit is due: Anne Barone is the author I'm referring to; she has two books listed on www.amazon.com. Ms. Barone mentioned that marches were designed to have the beat and "mood" to keep tired soldiery marching. Made sense to me.)
I'm happy to say that this is great walking music. It's not something most people would listen to for the sake of beauty per se (although the songs are by no means unpleasant to listen to), but it's the perfect tempo for walking, which is why I called it "functional" in my title.

A great resource on reducing expenses
Feb. 27 2004
This review is from:
MISERLY MOMS, 3RD ED. (Paperback)
For anyone who wishes to stay home with their family, this is a terrific resource on how to lower expenses. The author was once a senior buyer for Apple Computers, among other firms, and you can see this working experience in her thorough and analytical approach to family frugality.
The fact that the book is called "Miserly" Moms may be slightly misleading (it initially put my husband off, which is why I mention this). "Miserly" indicates stinginess, penuriousness, lack of generosity. By no means is this the message contained in this book. Rather, it shows many ways families can cut expenses in order to meet a particular goal: that of having one parent stay home with the child(ren).
In fact, the author's approach is to find those areas where she can make the biggest dent in expenses in the least amount of time. Approximately half of the book is dedicated to saving money on food, since for most families with two parents working outside the home, cutting back on food expenses offers the biggest opportunity to save a lot of money quickly.
Her first principle is not to confuse frugality with depriving oneself. The reason: if you think you're depriving yourself, you cripple your ability to make long-term changes. Rather, she presents frugality as a choice, made every day in many different ways, both large and small. (Example: Would I rather have this Starbucks coffee and muffin now or would I rather do without them, if that is what it takes to be home with my children?) This principle is reflected throughout.
There's also a great chapter in this book on raising frugal children.
I would recommend this book in conjunction with another book called You Can Afford To Stay Home With Your Kids. I felt the latter book was stronger in helping the reader to break down his/her particular monthly expenses and make a budget ahead of time. Also, I felt that book included more discussion on what would-be-stay-at-home-parents can expect once home...while it's true that there are huge emotional payoffs to feeling that you're making the greatest possible contribution to bringing up your child(ren) by being home with them, nothing but nothing is all sunshine and roses. Two funny examples these authors cite are that your children will have more opportunities to drive you bonkers once you're home with them and that if you never liked housework, you will not magically find yourself liking to scrub the toilets and you may find yourself doing it more often.
In my own case, I felt that these two books taken together made a GREAT partnership. You Can Afford To Stay Home With Your Kids has more to offer families prior to making the transition from two incomes to one (in my opinion). Miserly Moms shines in showing many, many specific ways families can reduce expenses without sacrificing quality...which of course is valuable both before and after making the transition.
Oh, yeah... I bought both books about a year and a half ago. It took about a year to lay all the groundwork, but I'm home with my two children now. The suggestions in these books helped me to lay that foundation and now that I'm home, to be able to stay there by practicing a frugal lifestyle.

Recommended in conjunction with Miserly Moms

This review is from:
You Can Afford To Stay Home With Your Kids (Paperback)
What I liked best about this book:
1. The chapter on contingency plans. Yes, it's obvious that it's a good idea to have a backup-plan in case the working parent gets laid off, there's a large unexpected expense, etc. Nevertheless, I found it helpful to read the authors' experiences regarding such emergencies which happened in their families and to consider the various ideas and options presented. My own contingency plan was that I worked fifteen months longer than I wanted to and progressively worked up to putting my entire paycheck in savings; by the time I quit, we had enough money set aside to pay our living expenses for an entire year, if that became necessary.
2. The chapter on stay-at-home blues. I appreciated the authors' candor in describing the pros and cons of staying home. A humorous (but true) example they give is that you won't necessarily fall in love with cleaning the bathroom and once home, you may do it more often than you did before. Most importantly, they're honest about the feeling of isolation that can creep up on a stay-at-home parent and how one can deal with it.
3. They "tell it like it is". As they say, unless one of the parents' incomes is completely disposable, it is going to be necessary to make some sacrifices somewhere. Something will have to go in order to keep the family's financial boat afloat. My family experienced this period of adjustment while saving for our emergency fund; by the time I left work, we were already used to managing on one income and it wasn't so difficult.
I address the chapters on the "cons" of staying home specifically because if most people pick up a book like this in the first place, it's probably because they already want to be home with their child(ren). What they want to know is how to achieve that goal and what to expect along the way. I found this book a terrific primer on how to get off the fast track in the smoothest possible manner.
The reason I recommended this book in conjunction with Miserly Moms by Jonni McCoy is that I feel the latter book presents a larger share of nuts-and-bolts information on how to reduce expenses. Jonni McCoy once worked as a senior buyer for Apple Computers, among other firms, and you can see this real-world experience in how she analyzes and approaches the issue of frugality.

Poignant and touching
Feb. 18 2004
This review is from:
A Part of the Sky (Mass Market Paperback)
From the author's dedication to his mother and aunt, "who worked a farm like men but stayed as soft as quilts" to the end when they lose their farm and have to start over, this book is filled with charm and honest emotion.
After I read "A Day No Pigs Would Die" to my two children, they were clamoring for more about Robert and his family.
This book is not didactic about values, but as you read the struggles and misfortunes Robert and his family face at the onset of the Great Depression, you will find those down-home, bedrock values in every chapter. GREAT family reading.
I, as an adult, enjoyed it every bit as much as my two children did.
Another series of books with the same "flavor" is Little Britches by Ralph Moody.

Beautiful and exotic

This review is from:
Caravan: Ultimate Silk Road Album (Audio CD)
I'll be the first to admit that I'm not extremely knowledgeable about classical music; I just know what I enjoy listening to and this is one of my favorites when I'm the mood for something a little bit "exotic" sounding. A lot of the composers are Russian and the music has the flavor of the East. "In the Steppes of Central Asia" is particularly lovely.

A gem: Information I've never found anywhere else
July 23 2003
This review is from:
Natural Beauty: Pamper Yourself with Salon Secrets at Home (Paperback)
Specifically, my review title is referring to three chapters.
One is a chapter on waxing hair. It includes a recipe for making a sugar wax at home. I'm one of those people who just hates paying to have someone else wax my legs and since shaving every day is irksome and time-consuming, I was really happy to find this information. Best of all, the recipe and instructions work great. I figure I paid for the book with my first leg waxing.
The second chapter is the one on shaping eyebrows. I already knew how to determine where the eyebrows should begin and end, but this chapter showed how to shape what's in between. It also showed common mistakes that people make.
Finally, in the hair-care chapter, there were great instructions on how to blow dry hair the way they do in a salon. I've never found such detailed instructions for that before and found them quite helpful.

Four-pronged approach for a lifetime of fitness
July 23 2003
This review is from:
Shrink Your Female Fat Zones: Lose Pounds and Inches-- Fast!-- From Your Belly, Hips, Thighs, and More (Paperback)
This book features a comprehensive approach to fitness...cardio, strength training, stretching and healthful eating. Each body type has a slightly different recommendation, in order to target (with toning exercises) particular problem areas. Denise's manner of writing is informative, friendly and encouraging.
What I liked best:
The cardio workout recommended is walking, which is nice because it can be done any time, anywhere. There are four walking workouts per week: an endurance walk, an interval walk, a walk with toning exercises incorporated and a combination interval/toning walk. Every two weeks the length of the walk is increased so that if you follow the schedule you will be walking 45 minutes/walk four times a week at the end of six weeks. There is a modified schedule for those who are quite out of shape, starting out. The fact that there is variety in the workouts makes it more interesting and less likely to result in a fitness plateau.
There is a wonderful chapter on emotional eating. Basically, Denise's suggestion is to keep a "hunger" journal...noting down what time you eat, how hungry you were (on a scale of 1 to 5) and what the surrounding circumstances were. I have tried this myself and keep going back to it occasionally as a touchstone. I've found this a very helpful tool as far as modifying my habits.
There are three eating plans along with suggestions for which would be most appropriate: a 1,400-calorie-a-day plan, a 1,600-calorie plan and an 1,800-calorie plan. Denise also has suggestions for modifying them. As one example, Denise explains why some women might find it most successful to alternate between the 1,400-calorie plan and the 1,600-calorie plan.
The food on the included menus has lots of variety and is delicious. I don't think anyone would feel deprived. It's also quite flexible, making it user-friendly. For instance, the shopping lists note which foods not to buy if you're planning to eat out on a given day during that week.
Finally, following her three-times-a-day stretching routine has been one of the best things I've done for myself. I've always stretched before and after workouts, but never throughout the day, every day. In the past month or so, little aches and pains that I used to have by the end of a day in the office have melted away.
As I get older, I find myself less concerned about a number on the scale, per se, and more concerned about maintaining strength and flexibility so that as the years go by I will continue to be able to do with ease the activities I love. I found Denise's advice in this book fit right in with my goals for a lifetime of fitness.

A refreshing new look at beauty
April 17 2003
This review is from:
Fine Art Of Dressing (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book because it celebrated many different body types, showing how best to enhance each one. It can be frustrating that today there is such a narrow definition of "beauty" and this book goes beyond that.
I also enjoyed the concept of labeling each body type by the artist that celebrated that shape, as opposed to fruit labels, i.e., "pear" or "apple". For instance, the Rubens shape is all-over voluptuous and generous. That doesn't fit today's "ideals" but why shouldn't one be able to look lovely just the same?
I myself felt like I was somewhere in between Modigliani (very slender above the waist and curvy below) and a Renoir (similar shape, but more solid above the waist)...it depends on my weight. In any case, some of the same styles apply to both body shapes.
I can say that following the advice of empire-waist dresses and dresses with bolero jackets for the Modigliani shape has garnered me compliments, both from my husband (a spontaneous, "Wow! That looks really nice on you!") and from others. And that feels great.

Finally, my favorite month is here! I tell you, there's no greater thrill for me than coming back to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway each May -- it's one of my favorite places on earth. I'm really looking forward to this year's race because I think we have a real chance to win again. I won here in my first two attempts in 2001 and 2002 and I finished second last year to my former teammate Gil de Ferran, so my luck at the Brickyard has been pretty good so far.
Hopefully, we'll be able to maintain our winning ways. This year, my new teammate Sam Hornish Jr. and I will be going for Marlboro Team Penske's fourth consecutive win -- something no other team has done in the event's 87-year history. I think we've got a great shot -- our team has an unparalleled record at Indy with 12 poles and 13 wins, and has led over 33-percent of the total laps run in the past three years. It'll be very interesting to see what happens come race day and if the team can make history yet again.
There are actually two races in the month of May: the race for the pole and then the actual race. We spend our first week working on the qualifying set-up so that come Pole Day (this Saturday) we're ready to go. Last year, it was one of the most stressful yet most rewarding days of my career.
The weather was terrible -- it was really cold and extremely windy. We went out for morning practice and couldn't seem to get the car over 200 mph. More importantly, I wasn't comfortable with the handling of the car and I was beginning to lose my confidence. The team decided that rather than qualify at our designated time, we would pull out of the qualifying line and continue to practice until I was more comfortable.
As the day went on, the weather got worse. My friend, Tony Kanaan, went out late in the day and put together four strong laps and he took the provisional pole with a four-lap average of 231.006 mph. I looked at my guys and said, listen; I can't take the pressure any more, if we're going to go let's just go for it.
One of the most important things about qualifying is that you stay as consistent as possible. You've got to string together four perfect laps to get the highest average speed possible. Because the weather was so bad that day, Brian Barnhardt, VP of Operations for the Indy Racing League, gave everyone an extra warm-up lap. By the time I took the green flag the car was feeling pretty good and I was a bit surprised when I looked at my dash and saw that my first lap was over 230 mph! I was working my car the whole way around the track trying to make the adjustments to accommodate the changing conditions and strong winds.
My second lap was even quicker and I began to realize that I had a shot at the pole. The next two laps were probably two of the most important laps of my career. By the time I took the checkered flag I realized I had captured my first pole at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and I was overcome with emotion.
(Castroneves captured Team Penske's record 12th pole with a four-lap average speed of 231.725 mph).
I tell you there is something about this track that makes any accomplishment feel twice as special. I don't know if it's the history of the Speedway; the racing legends who have been successful here; or its significance in the world of motorsports; but it's a magical place and there is nowhere like it in the world.
In a couple of days, I'll have the chance to go for it again. I hope the weather is better but I hope the results are the same.

It's Hard to Get the Government on the Phone
Obama recommends calling for answers, but it's not that easy.
A question from a farmer at a town hall event had President Obama insisting, "don't always believe what you hear," and encouraging citizens to get a response directly from the government. "Contact USDA," he told the man, so a reporter did just that. Twelve calls and nearly 24 hours later: "still no answer to the farmer's question." [Politico]

WASHINGTON (AP) Ś Hold the champagne.
Even if Congress reaches a last-minute or deadline-busting deal to avert a federal default and fully reopen the government, elected officials are likely to return to their grinding brand of brinkmanship Ś perhaps repeatedly.
House-Senate talks are barely touching the underlying causes of debt-and-spending stalemates that pushed the country close to economic crises in 2011, last December and again this month.
Late Tuesday, the GOP-controlled House dropped efforts to craft a bill to raise the debt limit and fully open the government. House members will wait for the Democratic-controlled Senate to act, which could push a final resolution past Thursday. Thatĺs when administration officials say federal borrowing powers will be tapped out.
Still, many in Congress expect a resolution, even if itĺs a few days late. At best, however, lawmakers and the White House will agree to fund the government and raise the debt limit for only a few months. They also will call for yet another bipartisan effort to address the federal debtĺs major causes, including restricted revenue growth and entitlement benefits that rise automatically.
And yet, top advocates say theyĺve seen virtually no change in the political dynamics that stymied past efforts for a compromise to end the cycle of brinksmanship and threats to harm the economy.
Republicans still adamantly oppose tax increases. Powerful interest groups and many Democrats still fiercely oppose cuts in Social Security and Medicare benefits. And congressional rules still tempt lawmakers to threaten economic havoc Ś by sending the nation into default Ś if the opposing party doesnĺt yield to their demands.
ôWeĺre probably going to have to go through this a few more times,ö said Bob Bixby of the bipartisan Concord Coalition, which advocates budget reforms. Even if a compromise plan this month wins House, Senate and White House approval, Bixby said, it will leave fundamental problems that ôthey havenĺt done anything to address.ö
Henry J. Aaron, a Brookings Institution scholar who supports unprecedented legal action to avert future debt showdowns, agreed that three or four months of breathing room is a small victory. ôIf all we achieve is a repetition of this charade,ö Aaron said, ôwe will not have achieved much.ö
The political landscape is littered with once-hopeful bipartisan efforts to reach a ôgrand bargainö Ś or even a modest bargain Ś to slow the growth of the nationĺs $16.7 trillion debt and to make spending and revenue trends more sustainable.
There was the Simpson-Bowles plan, first issued in 2010, and revised early this year. The revised version called for about $1.3 trillion in new revenues over 10 years, from various sources (about half the original planĺs target). It would slow the growth rate of Social Security benefits and raise the eligibility age. It would limit popular tax deductions such as those for charitable gifts and mortgage interest.
The Simpson-Bowles plan remains widely praised nationwide, and largely ignored in Congress.
Then there were the 2011 secret talks between President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. Boehner suggested $800 billion in new revenues over 10 years Ś less than Obama wanted Ś in exchange for widespread spending cuts, including curbs on Medicare and Social Security.
It was never clear whether Obama could have pushed the plan through the Democratic-controlled Senate. It didnĺt matter, because Boehnerĺs GOP colleagues vehemently objected when details leaked, and the talks collapsed. Efforts last year to revive negotiations also failed.
A bipartisan congressional ôsupercommitteeö fared no better. Both parties had agreed to supposedly unbearable ôsequesterö spending cuts to goad each other into big compromises to find a better way. But negotiations faltered and the clumsy-by-design sequester cuts Ś automatic and across the board Ś became law this year.
All these efforts failed for the same basic reasons. Liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, would have had to swallow painful concessions that they donĺt believe are warranted. The lure of the ôcommon goodö couldnĺt match the power of sharply partisan regions and districts whose voters vow to punish lawmakers who compromise.
Republicans oppose higher taxes, even though todayĺs taxation levels are relatively low, historically. Democrats oppose curbs in the growth of Medicare and Social Security, even though analysts for years have said the automatic growth of these ôentitlementö programs is unsustainable long-term.
Americans are accustomed to relatively high levels of government service at relatively low levels of taxation. Millions are unwilling to undo that arrangement in pursuit of deficit reduction.
That makes it easier for powerful, well-financed groups to resist almost any change in government programs or taxes that favor them.
ôWeĺve been extremely adamant that Social Security shouldnĺt be part of this discussion at all,ö said David Certner, legislative counsel for AARP, the big lobbying group for seniors. Social Security has its own funding source Ś a payroll tax Ś Certner said, and it must not ôbecome a piggybank for other programs.ö
As for Medicare, Certner said, he has never seen so many AARP members loudly declaring, ôthese are my benefits, Iĺve paid into them over the years,ö and they must not be reduced.
Countless other interest groups take similarly unyielding stands, say lawmakers and advocates on all sides of the debate. Bixby said such groups ôwill never be part of a solution.ö
The bipartisan budget conferees who are envisioned in the debt-and-shutdown proposals in Congress may start with fairly small ambitions, such as looking for ways to replace some of the more painful ôsequesterö cuts with spending reductions elsewhere. Itĺs not clear whether that would avert another government shutdown and default threat in a few months.
The best hope, Bixby said, is to somehow find ôa centrist coalition to pass somethingö that includes new revenues and curbs to entitlements. But so far, he said, ôthe consensus has been to shut down rather than compromise.ö
With a bipartisan accord so hard to reach, some advocates say the president and the courts must find a way to stop congressional factions from extracting concessions from the presidentĺs party by threatening a default on U.S. obligations. Aaron said itĺs legally contradictory to empower Congress to enact spending laws and then threaten to block the higher borrowing cap needed to pay the bills lawmakers incurred.
Aaron wrote in The New York Times, ôFailure to raise the debt will force the president to break a law Ś the only question is which one.ö The Constitution, he said, requires the president to spend what Congress tells him to spend, collect only those taxes Congress approves ôand to borrow no more than Congress authorizes.ö
Aaron says Obama should ignore the debt ceiling if Congress refuses to lift it in time. The White House rejects that idea, and even Aaron concedes it probably would trigger an impeachment and massive court challenge.
Rep. John Fleming, R-La., summed up the challenge any new bipartisan conferees will face. Asked how the two parties might reach an accord, Fleming suggested Democrats must cave.
ôAmerica is catching on to the fact that we have a president who seems unlikely to solve Americaĺs problems,ö he said. ôWe have two totally different visions of America.ö

Thanks PC for Baptizing Steve into the cyber wars!ReplyDelete
This is going to be great for Waikato freedom fighters and for anyone fighting local body tyranny where ever they are in NZ.
I hope everyone helps Steve make his blog into a Waikato leader with input and help to keep up to date with the issues.
Issues facing other regions will have implications for the Waikato and visa versa so even though Steve's is a Hamilton blog, I am sure the discussion will encompass the broader political scene as a whole and be a useful source of Ideas for helping Libertarians get into their local councils no matter where they live.
Lets us Sally forth!

Injury: Persistent muscle spasm may occur as a protective mechanism following an injury, such as a broken bone. In this instance, the spasm tends to minimize movement and stabilize the area of injury. Injury of the muscle alone may cause the muscle to spasm.
Vigorous activity: True cramps are commonly associated with the vigorous use of muscles and muscle fatigue (in sports or with unaccustomed activities). Such cramps may come during the activity or later, sometimes many hours later. Likewise, muscle fatigue from sitting or lying for an extended period in an awkward position or any repetitive use can cause cramps. Older adults are at risk for cramps when performing vigorous or strenuous physical activities. Continue Reading

We appreciate Dr Frenkel's comments, which emphasize what we believe to be the most important aspect of preconception care: the ability of health professionals to provide comprehensive health promotion and counseling to reduce risks to future pregnancy. We agree that serological testing for antibody against Toxoplasma gondii during pregnancy is not optimal because of the poor predictive value of such testing; however, testing before pregnancy does have benefit over testing during pregnancy since those already positive and therefore not in need of further testing or hygienic measures in any future pregnancy are identified. The prevalence of toxoplasmosis infection and the prevalence of susceptibility to new infection during pregnancy vary greatly in the different parts of the United States, ranging from 50% to 95% susceptibility,1 and the extent of the morbidity and mortality due to toxoplasmosis is not known with certainty.2 Subtracting those who test positive

Depression (Major Depressive Disorder) Symptoms
A person who suffers from a major depressive disorder (sometimes also referred to as clinical depression or simply depression) must either have a depressed mood or a loss of interest or pleasure in daily activities consistently for at least a 2 week period. This mood must represent a change from the person's normal mood. Social, occupational, educational or other important functioning must also be negatively impaired by the change in mood. For instance, a person who has missed work or school because of their depression, or has stopped attending classes altogether or attending usual social engagements.
A depressed mood caused by substances (such as drugs, alcohol, medications) is not considered a major depressive disorder, nor is one which is caused by a general medical condition. Major depressive disorder generally cannot be diagnosed if a person has a history of manic, hypomanic, or mixed episodes (e.g., a bipolar disorder) or if the depressed mood is better accounted for by schizoaffective disorder and is not superimposed on schizophrenia, a delusion or psychotic disorder.
Clinical depression is characterized by the presence of 5 or more of these depressive symptoms:
- Depressed mood most of the day, nearly every day, as indicated by either subjective report (e.g., feeling sad, blue, "down in the dumps," or empty) or observation made by others (e.g., appears tearful or about to cry). (In children and adolescents, this may present as an irritable or cranky, rather than sad, mood.)
- Markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities every day, such as no interest in hobbies, sports, or other things the person used to enjoy doing.
- Significant weight loss when not dieting or weight gain (e.g., a change of more than 5 percent of body weight in a month), or decrease or increase in appetite nearly every day.
- Insomnia (inability to get to sleep or difficulty staying asleep) or hypersomnia (sleeping too much) nearly every day
- Psychomotor agitation (e.g., restlessness, inability to sit still, pacing, pulling at clothes or clothes) or retardation (e.g., slowed speech, movements, quiet talking) nearly every day
- Fatigue, tiredness, or loss of energy nearly every day (e.g., even the smallest tasks, like dressing or washing, seem difficult to do and take longer than usual).
- Feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt nearly every day (e.g., ruminating over minor past failings).
- Diminished ability to think or concentrate, or indecisiveness, nearly every day (e.g. appears easily distracted, complains of memory difficulties).
- Recurrent thoughts of death (not just fear of dying), recurrent suicidal ideas without a specific plan, or a suicide attempt or a specific plan for committing suicide
Related: Teen Depression Symptoms
In keeping with updates to the major depressive disorder criteria in DSM-5, a person can suffer from a major depressive episode during a period of Bereavement, i.e., after the loss of a loved one. This is a significant change from the previous DSM-IV criteria, which did not give the diagnosis of major depression if the person was grieving over a significant loss in their lives. This change was made with the rationale that since bereavement may induce great suffering in a person, it may induce an episode of major depressive disorder.
In other words, it is not normal for the symptoms of bereavement to induce marked functional impairment, morbid preoccupation with worthlessness, suicidal ideation, psychotic symptoms, or psychomotor retardation for two months or more. Thus, when they do occur together, the depressive symptoms and functional impairment tend to be more severe and the prognosis is worse compared with bereavement that is not accompanied by major depressive disorder. Bereavement-related depression tends to occur in persons with other vulnerabilities to depressive disorders, and recovery may be facilitated by antidepressant treatment.
This criteria has been adapted for DSM-5.

Posted on 04/29/2008 5:41:56 AM PDT by kellynla
The Democratic National Committee has sparked outrage among veterans and others across the internet by running an anti-John McCain ad that shows U.S. soldiers being hit by an IED blast. The video excerpt in the DNC ad does not indicate if the soldiers survived. Video: See the DNC Ad -
But remember "We support the troops!"
Here's a direct link to the video:
Great, now I have a mental image of the ad with a disclaimer at the end which reads - No soldiers were harmed in the filming of this ad
Call the number on the add, they will claim they haven't seen it. I called it and was asked if I wanted to talk to Howard Dean personally about the add. I told them yes and gave them my phone number.
Later Bump
I'm guessing they would oppose an ad showing Howard Dean being shot in the head?
There is nothing to see here, just the respective parties being what they are and doing what they always do: 'rats figuratively blowing up US troops in a way they'd like to do literally, and then blaming 'pubs for it.
The Communists at the DNC are in full force. The American people will hoefully see just what type of scumthey are.
OBTW - the news media won't run replays of the attacks on the towers because it is too upseting.
Well how about the families of those who lost loved ones in this war!
Maybe McCain will start to see what his new found friends on the left are really like?
It is bad enough that the DNC is lying about McCain desiring a "100-Year War". That is a boldfaced lie, about which the Republican Party, predictably, is doing nothing. But for the Democrats to use footage of American soldiers being harmed in combat operations as a political message is beyond the pale. About which, the Republican Party, predictably, will do nothing. After all, their own candidate might get upset if they did.
I don't think I'd be too heartbroken to see a bombing of the DNC headquarters. Really.
"I dont think Id be too heartbroken to see a bombing of the DNC headquarters."
Watch out next they being saying you are inciting posters to bomb the DNC!
Is there anyway we can flag this one, Star?
>>I dont think Id be too heartbroken to see a bombing of the DNC headquarters. Really.<<
No you don't. We are better than that. We don't riot and bomb, they do.
We want people to see them for who they are. Pity it had to be this way....
Matter of fact you are more right than you think. I would love to have the information from the FBI's National Bomb Data Center declassified for the period of the 60's and 70's and see who Bill Ayers really was. What is interesting is the people who interacted with him and never condemed anything he was doing at that time.
We always knew the DNC were on the side of the terrorists — at least on the fringes. I guess the run-of-the-mill dems support them too, huh? Good grief.
The Marxists in the rat party have declared war against us.
People don't realize it yet.
"The Marxists in the rat party have declared war against us.
People dont realize it yet?"
Nothing new...the Commies have been "alive & well" in America since the Russian Revolution. And the present crop of Lefties are just products of college/university Commie indoctrinations that has been going on for decades all over America.
"Liberalism is just Communism sold by the drink."
Remember who's filming these bombings. It's not Americans, but the enemy bombers. How did the DNC get this film? How much did they pay our enemy for it?
I saw that video when it first came out maybe 4 years ago. I believe it was shot by a fellow soldier or a reporter and I don't think they were seriously hurt.
A devastating argument against these scatological marvels might go thusly:
The footage of Americans blowing up did not happen by chance. It happened because a Stringer was told where and when to point his camera, by a party to murder, for propaganda purposes. That propagandist is the Democratic National Commitee.
Bump and self ping for viewing at home.
That's because they are one and the same.
(works for the Dem, when it makes as much sense...)
I just watched the ad - how disrespectful and disgusting!!! I called the number on the ad and the woman took down my complaints and sounded disgusted with my call.
ping for viewing after work...
The backlash should be so huge that they would never pull a stunt like this again, but we will have to see about that.
In my mind, it don't get much lower then this. I gotta go git a bag and breath in it or something. Be back later.
This add reminds me of the picture of Jane Fonda sitting on the North Vietnamese Anti-Aircraft Gun.
If a video ad were run nationally that showed actual, real-time footage of the entire DNC and their supporters being summarily vaporized at the Denver Convention by the outpoured wrath of Almighty God...
...John McCain would angrily denounce it as "dirty politics" and the RNC would probably chime in with a press release denying the existnce of God.
The DNC 2008
You covered it all Norm. I guess I could add one more though - Shameless.
YES! Thanks!
More proof that the DNC and OsamaObama wants us to lose the War on Terror.

Nobody knew if Tony Conigliaro would ever hit a baseball again, but come spring training – a year and a half after the August 1967 beaning, he made the team and did well. It was only later that we learned how hard that was, as we read his autobiography Seeing It Through. Opening Day was in Baltimore. The Orioles were a team that won 109 games in 1969. The game went into extra innings and Tony Conigliaro hit a two-run home run in the 10th inning to give Boston the lead – but then Frank Robinson of the O's matched that for Baltimore in the home half. In the 12th inning, Tony was up again, got on base, and scored a run that proved to be the game winner. He ended up with 20 home runs, and it looked like he might see well enough to improve further in 1970. With Tony C back in right, the team felt it could trade Hawk Harrelson for more pitching. They traded Harrelson to Cleveland for Sonny Siebert in the first month of the season. The staff was led by Ray Culp at 17-8 and rookie Mike Nagy that went 12-2. Sonny Siebert was 14-10. Reliever Sparky Lyle ended up 8-3 on the year. During a day/night doubleheader in Boston on June 21, things looked grim when the Yankees scored three times in the top of the 11th inning. The Red Sox fought back, and scored four times, for an exhilarating win. Something of the flip side faced the fans who chose the second game. The Sox were one strike away from a win, but Roy White tripled, then Bill Robinson drove him in, and the Red Sox couldn't muster the four runs in the bottom of the ninth that it would have taken to win again. On the second anniversary of when he'd been hit in the eye, Tony C hit a three-run homer to erase a 6-3 deficit in the bottom of the eighth, a game the team took in 10. For the fourth year in succession, the Sox finished ahead of the Yankees, but were in third place, 87-75, in the new A.L. East Division. And with nine games to go, Dick Williams was fired. Eddie Popowski ran things those final games.By Bill Nowlin

This is really impressive Mattashi! I don't have much time right now to leave a substantial comment or review, but I thought it was important to let you know that this is a fantastic piece! I hear nothing wrong with it.
Also, there is a new genre under the 'Other' category: World. I think this would fit well under that genre! :)

This review is from: StarTech 2S1P Native PCI Express Parallel Serial Combo Card with 16550 UART Model PEX2S5531P
Plugged it into a Win7 64bit machine, turned it on and it installed itself. No config or drivers needed. Hooked up the devices, set the device configurations and we were off and running.
Other Thoughts:
A pleasant surprise.

Given that many imaging technologies in biology and medicine are non-optical and generate data that is essentially numerical, it is a striking feature of these technologies that the data generated using them are most frequently displayed in the form of semi-naturalistic, photograph-like images. In this paper, I claim that three factors underlie this: (1) historical preferences, (2) the rhetorical power of images, and (3) the cognitive accessibility of data presented in the form of images. The third of these can be argued to provide an epistemic advantage to images, but I will further argue that this is often misleading and that images can in many cases be less informative than the corresponding mathematical data.

From Our Editors
Cofounded by the legendary Hollywood dancer himself, the Fred Astaire Dance Studio hosts a team of seven veteran instructors who specialize in ballroom and Latin dances ranging from the rumba to the waltz. Students can build their cache of moves in private lessons with personalized curricula or practice with their peers in the convivial atmosphere of group classes. High-octane Zumba classes help to combust calories, imparting Latin-inspired choreography in an atmosphere that is festive but doesn't expose students to dangerous swarms of flying champagne corks. Youngsters build their poise in dance classes that cover five different styles, ranging from ballet to hip-hop, and engaged couples prepare to glide elegantly across the dance floor at their nuptials with wedding-oriented classes.
