AO- that is some good stuff! I hope you really don't believe that garbage you just wrote!
We will see how powerful the good ole boy network is in Baltimore City. I just hope folks with kids on this board would actually think what they would do if their son had a pencil or tooth brush stuck up their you know what.
Reassignment for one employee and administrative leave for another is probably just the starting point.
AO responds
Very good stuff you wrote here as well however...
REASSIGNMENT in this case means, You are the man...we like you alot and to prevent further damage to one of our most coveted assets, we will remove you from harms way and attempt to prevent possible exploitation of your weakened state. We will or have already done so as to preserve you for the the purpose of achieving continued success in the future as well as to reward you for already having done.
LIKE OR NOT...The good old boy (Dunbar Network) will ultimately prevail...as it should...they will definately protect their own and I sure as hell hope so because it is what they are suppose to do....as far as I am being told by reliabe sources, the issue at hand is far less serious than what most of us on this board have hoped for or made it out to be. If what I'm being told is accurate in the least, Mr. Smith is facing nothing more than pre-cautionary measures met to prevent him from suffering needless accusations and further damage to his name...this b.s will pass over just as this recent snow storm is doing as we speak...as much as some of you thirst for the hangman's noose, there will be no guilltine exocutioner in this case. Dunbar folks not only win on the field, they win off of it...and I respect this notion as well as commend them for it.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS, if we were talking about a Hereford, Spalding or Dulaney High school, there would be little or nothing about the issue being posted on this board. Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves, acting like a bunch of vultures hovering around fresh road kill. The only real crimes commited is as Katt William often says is " The G-damn haters who hate a G-damn winner"...as much as I want my school to win city league titles and state championships, I hope coach Smith gets the last laugh on this one....and keep winning state titles in spite of the G-damn haters....GO POETS.

I just made bagels covered in cheddar and monetery jack, yummy....
Whiskey Sour
2 oz blended whiskey
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1 cherry
1/2 slice lemon
Shake blended whiskey, juice of lemon, and powdered sugar with ice and strain into a whiskey sour glass. Decorate with the half-slice of lemon, top with the cherry, and serve.
I might get some cheese tonight. I'm bumping this thread so I can find it more easily when I'm at AJ's.

Generic Templates for Amazon Product Review
This project was successfully completed by renuka0412 for $35 USD in 3 days.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$30 - $250 USD
Completed In3 days
Total Bids5
Project Description
I am looking for several generic "templates" for Amazon product reviews.
The goal is that whenever I want to post a review, I just need to change product name and description; while leaving other parts of articles unchanged. Thus, the template should be generic enough to fit most of Amazon products.
The project is to create 20 sets of templates. Each template consists of at least 100 words.
Each set of template would include the following parts:
1. Opening/Introduction
2. Middle Content
3. Closing
In between above parts, you must provide a space for amazon product description and features. You don't need to write the description and features, it will be generated (copy-pasted) from amazon so just leave a space for it. Please refer to the attached sample so can get better understanding. You should not just rewrite the sample, but create a fresh/unique template.
You may be asked to write a (paid) sample template, so I know that you completely understand the project.
This will be a recurring project if the hired person is good at it.
Thank you and looking forward to see your bids.

Doomed by debates
Perry's problem was that he actually had to debate. Once the American people saw how slow he was on his feet, it was over. I imagine he will come down to Texas and finish his term as governor. Then he will do what all former politicians do, become a "political consultant" for twice the salary he earned as the governor.
Michael Taglienti, McKinney
Media attacks unfair
The unfortunate truth is that most Americans are not politically educated enough to be able to think for themselves. Rick Perry had beginner's problems, which caused most people to write him off immediately as a candidate because the media attacked. If they had weighed what he was actually saying, they would now see that we lost a true conservative in the race for president.
I will back whomever is chosen in the GOP primary, but, my fear is that Barack Obama and socialism could still win.
Carolyn Duff, Highland Village
Lack of prep cost him
I am relieved that Rick Perry finally saw the handwriting on the wall and ended his presidential quest. The man has two major flaws: cockiness and presumptuousness. He felt he could use Texas swagger to outfox a Massachusetts tycoon and a Georgia politico.
All three men have gigantic baggage beyond the norm of what one would expect from a modern politician. Perry's blunders, missteps and lack of preparation on national and world issues made him fall from grace as rapidly as a meteorite crashing into Earth.
His presidential candidacy gave him a black eye, but worst of all, it tarnished his image as governor. Instead of looking like a leader, he came across as a buffoon, and we Texans still have three long years to endure his gubernatorial term.
James A. Marples, Longview
He was too honest
Unfortunately for Perry, his self-admitted lack of Washington insider know-how did him in. In Texas we like our politicians open and honest like Rick Perry, but that way of campaigning just didn't compete with the slick willies.
Jacqualea Cooley, Irving
Never a viable option
Gov. Rick Perry was simply not ready for a national race. Jumping in late, not debate-tested, he was not prepared not even physically for the grind and pace of running for president. And his last minute "vulture capitalism" attack was ill-advised.
Newt Gingrich may be flawed, but at least he is a viable opponent for Meandering Mitt.
Jim Stocks, Tyler
Still a role to play
Rick Perry did not show at the start of his campaign the breadth of knowledge one needs in order to run for president. Of course, I would take our governor in a heartbeat over the narcissist currently occupying the White House.
Nice try, Gov. Perry. When we take over the presidency and Senate in November, I can see you playing a role in getting our country back to our constitutional roots.
Pat Johnson, McKinney
No willingness to learn
The only people who should run for president are those who are willing to put in the work to learn American and world history, understand our political system, and think through issues and develop their own policies. Rick Perry was unwilling to do any of that.
He was a shell of a candidate, filled with the ideas of others that he never understood or mastered. He should never have been taken seriously. We will ultimately fail as a nation if we don't demand more substance from our politicians.
Susan Sanders Wansbrough, Dallas
He has 'run his course'
As a lifelong registered Republican, it is my opinion Rick Perry has run his course in politics. He has failed to serve the state as governor while he pursued the White House (at great expense to Texas taxpayers).
Insofar as he is already collecting retirement pay from the taxpayers of Texas, perhaps he should do us all a huge favor: retire!
Gale David, Flower Mound
He belongs in Texas
What went wrong? Everything. He did not give concise answers and looked unprepared, which he was. I don't think you can just jump into the race; it does take lots of planning and preparation.
Rick Perry is great for Texas, and we need him here. I think he will continue to have a great future with the state of Texas.
Wanda Meyers, Plano
Not enough organization
Rick Perry decided to run before he had time to get organized and establish a strong base for his campaign. He faltered in the debates and didn't come across as believing in the major changes he proposed.
He should stick to being our governor, and if offered a Veep position by the GOP nominee, he should refuse for the good of Texas.
Bob Pierce, Allen
Arrogance was exposed
The simple fact that he had to debate and speak in public instead of just making a rehearsed speech to a friendly audience did him in. The whole nation got to see what some voters refuse to see in Texas -- arrogance and a not-so-bright politician.
He'll ride off into the sunset and make millions with business connections.
Linda Lancaster, Arlington
Solve our problems now
Oh, thank goodness he is out. Gov. Perry, please come back to Texas and work on some of our problems in Texas!
School funding has to be addressed next year, and could the Legislature please have the guts to make some tough decisions this time?
I find it ludicrous that a huge state like Texas has a Legislature that only meets every other year and then is surprised when it has budget problems.
Kathy Minde, Richardson
No more Texas bashing
Rick Perry's uncharacteristically poor campaigning may prove to be a blessing for Texas. The nation is not ready for yet another president from our great state, and all the other states would have been jealous and picked on us even more than they already do.
As far as what's next for him, I'd bet that a few quiet years will be spent figuring out what went wrong, and then he will return with a vengeance to the political game of inching his way up the federal ladder, aiming his sights for the U.S. Senate next.
Vickie McKillip, Carrollton
Bored as governor?
Rick Perry is out? Was he really ever in?
He was not ready for the presidential plunge. He took it anyhow, revealed his true self and the people said no.
He could wind up as a midrange GOP player on the national stage and/or as a Sarah Palin-type paid occasional player on Fox News. He obviously is bored with being governor. Longer term, maybe chancellor of A&M, from which he never really departed.
Roger Summers, Arlington

Donald Kennedy
Bing Professor of Environmental Science, emeritus
President emeritus, Stanford University
Editor-in-Chief, Science
Donald Kennedy, a biologist by training, currently works on a variety of problems at the intersection of science and public policy. On June 1, 2000, he began a term as Editor-in-Chief of, Science, the journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
After receiving AB and Ph.D. degrees in biology from Harvard, Dr. Kennedy moved away from an early interest in ecology and behavioral biology to develop a research program in neurobiology. He came to Stanford in 1960, served as Chairman of the Department of Biology from 1965 to 1972, and in 1973 became Chairman of the Program in Human Biology – an interdisciplinary undergraduate program that he helped create.
In 1977 Dr. Kennedy took a 2 ½ year leave to serve as Commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, following an increasing academic interest in regulatory policy regarding health and the environment. After his return to Stanford in 1979, Dr. Kennedy served for a year as Provost and then for twelve years as President – a time marked by renewed attention to undergraduate education and student commitment to public service, and by successful completion of the largest capital campaign in the history of higher education. Kennedy continued to work on health and environmental policy issues, as a member of the Board of Directors of the Health Effects Institute (a non-profit organization devoted to mobile source emissions), and the California Nature Conservancy. He is the author of Academic Duty (Harvard University Pres, 1997), a book discussing some of the challenges facing American institutions of higher education.
His present research program, conducted through the Institute for International Studies includes interdisciplinary studies on policies regarding such trans-boundary environmental problems as: major land-use changes; economically-driven alterations in agricultural practice; global climate change; and the development of regulatory policies. Kennedy, with several colleagues, completed Environmental Quality and Regional Conflict, an analysis undertaken at the invitation of the Carnegie Commission on Preventing Deadly Conflict.
Dr. Kennedy was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1972 and is also a member of the American Academy of Arts and Science, the National Commission for Public Service, and the American Philosophical Society. He currently serves as Director of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and is Co-Chairman of the NAS Project on Science, Technology & Law.

The following abstracts are compiled from Check Sample exercises published in 2008. These peer-reviewed case studies assist laboratory professionals with continuing medical education and are developed in the areas of clinical chemistry, cytopathology, forensic pathology, hematology, microbiology, surgical pathology, and transfusion medicine. Abstracts for all exercises published in the program will appear annually in AJCP.
1 Fetal Lung Maturity Testing Clinical Chemistry No. CC 08-1 (CC-367)
Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a disorder of pulmonary immaturity with a high mortality characterized by low levels of pulmonary surfactant. Gestational age determines risk based on concentration of pulmonary surfactant, ie, as gestation progresses the concentration of pulmonary surfactant increases. As a result, newborns delivered at fewer than 28 weeks have a more than 60% risk of RDS, whereas those delivered at more than 34 weeks have a less than 5% risk of RDS. In situations where gestational age alone is not sufficient to determine RDS risk and preterm delivery is medically needed, amniotic fluid analysis can be performed to determine pulmonary surfactant concentration. Four common methods are the lecithin-sphingomyelin ratio, phosphatidylglycerol measurement, surfactant-albumin ratio, and lamellar body count. All of these tests have excellent negative predictive values but poor positive predictive values, ie, they are great at confirming maturity but poor at confirming immaturity.
2 Alkaline Phosphatase Isoenzyme Analysis: Guiding the Differential Diagnosis of Elevated Serum Total Alkaline Phosphatase Clinical Chemistry No. CC 08-2 (CC-368)
The measurement of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) has long been used in clinical medicine, primarily to aid the diagnosis and monitoring of liver and bone diseases. Its diagnostic utility is limited by the enzyme's wide tissue distribution and by a variety of potential nonpathologic causes. Isoenzyme analysis is one of several tools available to the clinician hoping to further characterize an elevated total ALP. It provides differentiation among liver, bone, intestinal, placental, and tumor-related forms as the cause of an elevation. The case presents a patient with persistent elevated ALP and atypical bands in the isoenzyme electrophoresis gel. An atypical ALP may be the result of a macroenzyme, which, if present, complicates interpretation of the test result and may cause additional, unnecessary testing or procedures. Recognizing and reporting a macroenzyme is an important service the clinical laboratorian can provide a clinician.
3 Indirect Phlebotomy: Is It Good Practice? Clinical Chemistry No. CC 08-3 (CC-369)
Indirect phlebotomy, the collection of blood samples through vascular infusion devices, is a common practice adopted to minimize needle-stick pain and discomfort in hospitalized patients. However, this practice can lead to alteration of the specimen and medical errors associated with misrepresentation of the blood test values. Among the possible problems, dilution or concentration of a particular analyte may occur, depending on the contents of the line's infusate. Although some studies may indicate that blood collection from lines can be acceptable for isolated laboratory tests, there are insufficient data to demonstrate the reliability of line draws as routine practice. Use of lines for specimen collection should be reserved only for those patients with truly poor vascular access or those patients who require multiple phlebotomies in a short time period. Samples should be collected from lines only under a direct physician order, with careful attention to technique and established protocols that take many variables into account, including the analytes, contents of the line, type of line, discard blood volume, time interval between interruption of infusion and sampling, and catheter size. Even with careful attention to these details, clinicians must remain wary of the potential for medical errors related to misinterpretation of laboratory test results based on such samples.

The long-term objective of this proposal is to gain insight into mechanisms of cell-mediated immunity and unresponsiveness to intracellular pathogens in humans. Leprosy provides an extraordinary model to investigate these immunoregulatory processes. First, the disease primarily affects skin and is therefore accessible for study, proving a unique opportunity for investigating the immune response at the site of infection. Secondly, the disease represents a spectrum, in which the clinical manifestations correlate with the immune response to the pathogen. In particular, patients with the resistant tuberculoid form (T-Lep) express type 1 cytokines in lesions;whereas patients with progressive lepromatous form (L-Lep) manifest type 2 cytokines in lesions. Our progress {3942} and preliminary data indicate that i) disease lesion transcriptome analysis provides a new level of insight into immunologic mechanisms that contribute to host defense in humans;ii) TCR V?6 T cell clones derived from T-lep patients are activated by a bacterial lipoglycoprotein (LprG);and iii) foam cells in L-lep lesions are M? that contain host-derived oxidized phospholipids, a major component of mildly oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL). We hypothesize that the outcome of the host response to M. leprae is determined by the nature of the innate and adaptive immune response in lesions. We now propose to: 1) elucidate the site of disease-host gene expression profiles associated with resistance versus susceptibility in the human immune response to an intracellular pathogen, 2) elucidate the mechanism by which T-cell recognition of a major microbial antigen, LprG contributes to host defense at the site of disease in leprosy;and, 3) investigate the mechanism by which host-derived lipids accumulate in macrophages in leprosy lesions. The studies we propose are intended to provide a comprehensive analysis of the immune response in leprosy, comparing host responses in patients that are resistant to infection vs. susceptible to progressive disease. We anticipate that such studies will provide new insights into mechanisms of immunoregulation in humans, and, we would hope, would provide the ability to predict disease outcome and also lead to the development of new immunomodulatory treatments for a variety of human infectious diseases.
To Public Health We have chosen to study leprosy, because it remains a global health burden on developing countries, because it provides an extraordinary model to study human immune responses to a microbial pathogen and because it is skin disease, such that the lesions are readily accessible for study of immune processes at the site of disease. Our preliminary data demonstrate unique insights into human immune responses from the study of leprosy, including the biologic/immunologic pathways that contribute to resistance vs. susceptibility to progressive infection, a novel type of bacterial protein, containing both lipid and carbohydrate modifications, that is recognized by T cells, and the role of host lipid metabolism in regulating host immune responses against microbial pathogens. The investigation of these aspects of host defense mechanisms will yield new insights into the human immune system as well as provide novel targets for therapeutic intervention against a wide range of infectious diseases.

I was - slowly, reluctantly and resentfully but surely - coming to grips with the fact that getting fit is a gradual business. I had dreamed of occasional blazes of glory. A slab of fat suddenly falling away to reveal a perfect sextet of abdominal muscles here, a quick tautening of glutei maximi there, so that one's buttocks - in Victoria Wood's matchless words - no longer skim the carpet, a wholesale flushing of the body and spirit with confidence and wellbeing, perhaps. But, in my clogged and inefficiently pumping heart of hearts, I knew how it would really be; a matter of small - nay, infinitesimal - gains, physical improvements all but invisible to the naked eye, and a mental outlook located firmly in the deepest dales of resistance but making occasional day trips into the verdant fields of optimism and hope.
And so it proved. I still have no visible musculature, but I do have the ability and willingness to run for a bus that I would once have simply watched pass by without the thought of increasing my pace to catch it. I can ride the bike all the way to the park without having to ask passing pensioners to help me walk it up the slope by the golf course. And while I haven't taken the shroud off the bathroom mirror yet, I do feel noticeably less like opening a vein when I have to get changed for the swimming pool. Actually, I'm lying about the swimming pool, but I do feel as though even that may change in the fullness of time.
Best of all - and really, a measurable success by anyone's standards - was that this week, forced by the heatwave out of my jeans and into the motley collection of cotton rags from Primark that pass for a summer wardrobe (the paucity of which will be clear from the fact that the forthcoming indicator of my success is known simply as "the skirt"), I found that the skirt fitted. Last year, dear friends, this was not so. This feat might, of course, denote only the extent of my dehydration rather than weight loss or muscle tone proper. However. Let us not dwell on that possibility, but rather rejoice - if only momentarily - in the fact.

Good Morning,
Just wanted to let you know that everyone enjoyed their stay at your Temecula properties.
The homes and surrounding areas were beautiful. Carol and the people supporting her were very helpful and pleasant to deal with.
With everything to do with the Wedding the stay seemed to go by in a blur so I think my wife and I will have to make another trip to the region in the future. We will certainly keep your houses on the radar and recommend them to any of our friends and relatives.
I stayed with a group of 9 at this house. The house itself is spacious and very nicely decorated. The location was very quiet and peaceful with great views of the surrounding area. Carol the owner was very helpful. Highly recommended.
Overall we had a great stay at the house, although we ended up having people sleep on the couch as the fifth bedroom is not located in the main house. To access the 5th bedroom you have to go outside. This would not be bad, except that there is no bathroom in the bedroom. You have to come back into the main house to use the bathroom, which is not very convenient and no mention is made of this in the property description on line. Nice house, great pool and hot tub.
We enjoyed your beautiful home. Thank you! We felt very much at home! This was our first family vacation in 7 years, and in that seven years we have seen two marriages and four births! The babies had such a fun time in the house, getting to stay up late and play, and they had a blast in the pool. We loved having a kitchen to have large family dinners and we were able to kick the boys out to the garage for a little peace and quiet! Our kids also loved the bunnies that came to the front yard every day, we *had* to go look multiple times to make sure we saw them. This was also the first time my daughter has been swimming, she loved it! We cannot express to you how much we loved our stay! Thank you from the whole family!
Dear The Michaels,
Thank you so much for letting us stay in this particular property of yours. Our stay has been nothing short of amazing. First and foremost the purpose of our trip- our son's return from his first deployment as a United Stated Marine from Afghanistan. Your property offered us the peace & tranquility we needed for his initiation back to America. Your environment you have created at "Casa Michaels" gave us the opportunity to share an enormous amount of wonderful moments over the past 7 days. We have laughed, sang, cried, and will never forget this trip. Our plan for the future is to come back when the time is right. Thank you Carol….you are awesome & we feel like we have made new friends.
I wanted a mini-getaway for my 30th Birthday and your house in Temecula provided the perfect setting for me and my dear friends. I had all of my closest friends here and had the time of my life. We had a great time wine tasting and playing in the pool! The house is gorgeous and comfortable for a weekend getaway. Thank you for letting us stay here and I hope to make a trip back again! Fabulous time!
We had an amazing stay in this beautiful house!! Thank you Carol for being so accommodating!! There were 14 of us and we all slept comfortably. We got married at Falkner Winery on Saturday and it was amazing and convenient to have the whole wedding party in the same house!! We will most definitely come back to this house for another stay!!
Thank you!!
Golf: Enjoy one of Temecula Valleys Outstanding Golf Courses. Many within 10 minutes from our home. Cross Creek Golf Club, Temecula Creek Inn Golf Course, Redhawk Golf Course, Temeku Hills Golf Course, Bear Creek Golf and Country Club and SCGA Golf Course.

How do I replace and install the Motorola SB6121 modem? I want to replace the Comcast modem to stop paying for the rental. Please help.
When you get your new modem just hook it up in place of your old one and call Comcast, they will activate it for you. You can also activate the new modem by simply opening a web browser and following the prompts (you'll need your account information). Return the old modem to your local Comcast office and make sure you get a receipt. Verify on your next bill that you are no longer being charged a rental fee.
At one time, the "walled garden" modem activation site did not work in SOME areas,and you'd end up calling CC anyway.....This MIGHT have changed over the last several months ( tried the "walled garden" with my 6120 -- without success-- about a year ago...)... I just skipped it and called in to provision my 5341J....
God luck!

Self-install works for me if I use the account number from https://customer.comcast.com/Secure/Account.aspx -- the one on that web page, not the one on the PDF statement. The number on the statement has one more digit than the one on the web page. If I use the longer one, the self-install fails.
The SB6121 runs the DOCSIS 3.0 release ... are all Internet performance levels supported by the SB1621 and the latest release of DOCSIS?
DOCSIS 3.0 is the latest version of the standard. The SB1621 is a DOCSIS 3 modem that supports 4 downstream channels. Motorola also makes a modem with 8 downstream channels, but it is not yet on Comcast's approved list. The Zoom 5341J supports 8 downstream channels and is on the approved list.

Core A will oversee the administrative coordination of the various clinical and laboratory studies outlined in this Program Project. It will integrate scientific and clinical efforts within and between Projects, and assure the translation of laboratory findings to the bedside;and conversely, the initiation of laboratory studies stemming from clinical observations. During the prior funding period, the infrastructure has been created to have seemless communication and exchange of data between Projects, facilitating collaborative preclinical studies and clinical trials. Multiple joint publications, completed and ongoing clinical trials, and the translation of several novel targeted therapies from bench to bedside confirm the communication and integration of our efforts. This Core will continue to facilitate exchange of information among the Program members, as well as the internal and external advisory committees. It will provide clinical research nursing support for the proposed clinical trials. In addition, as in the previous funding period, a clinical study coordinator will assure appropriate sample acquisition and trafficking. The grants administrator will allocate resources in a timely and integrated fashion to facilitate successful completion of the proposed studies. Core A will provide these functions: 1. To integrate scientific and clinical efforts within and between Projects 2. To assure translation of laboratory findings to the bedside;and conversely, the initiation of laboratory studies stemming from clinical observations. 3. To provide administrative support for the Projects.

text: I received my Black Ghost Knife about 4 days ago. He is small at only 1.5". He has spent the past 4 days hiding in the back corner near the heater. I assumed he was being timid and needed time to adjust to the tank. This morning I was excited for a split second when I saw him near the front of the tank. Then I realized he was lying on the bottom and breathing rapidly. I filled a 1g bucket with clean tap water at the temp of the tank, primed it then transferred the ghost knife. His breathing has seemed to return to a more normal pace but he is still fairly inactive. I am also finishing a large 75% WC as I write this and will return him to the tank when it is done. I know BGK's are supposed to be sensitive when small so I have been monitoring him closely. He hasn't shown any signs of disease with the exception of being shy and not eating. I do weekly 50% plus water changes. Parameters are fine.

Semen analysis is an important fertility test for infertile couples, and the test should be done before any treatments (even "just clomid") are prescribed. Many men experience anxiety over the test — and later, over the results. Your doctor will explain your results to you, and because different labs and doctors may use different normal value ranges, what your doctor considers normal or abnormal may differ from what you find in this article and elsewhere on the internet.

With that said, here are the semen health factors typically evaluated in a semen analysis, their normal values according to the World Health Organization's 2010 guidelines, and what abnormal results may mean.

The World Health Organization guidelines are based on percentiles, which are based on a group of men who fathered children in a year or less. The lower acceptable numbers represent the 5th percentile of this group. In other words, less than 5% of the men who fathered a child in the past year had semen parameter measurements below these cutoffs.

What this means is that having better or worse numbers doesn't necessarily mean you will or won't be able to father a child. The semen parameters are just guidelines to consider when investigating what may be causing infertility.

Semen Ejaculate Volume

What Is It: Semen is made up of more than just sperm. In fact, less than 5% of semen is made up of sperm. Healthy semen includes fluid from the testes (which is where the sperm come from), from the seminal vesicles (which includes important nutrients for the sperm), from the prostate gland (which includes zinc-rich fluid to maintain DNA stability of the sperm), and from the bulbourethral glands (which contains a mucus to help the semen swim).

What Is Considered Normal: Normal semen ejaculate is between 1.5 milliliters to 6 milliliters of fluid. This is about one-third of a teaspoon to a little over a teaspoon.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Low semen volume may be caused by an obstruction of the vas deferens (the duct that carries sperm from the testicles to the urethra), absence or blockage of the seminal vesicle, partial retrograde ejaculation, or a hormonal imbalance. Low volume may also be caused by stress over the test. (Speak to your doctor if this is true for you.) An abnormally high volume may be caused by inflammation of the reproductive glands.

Total Sperm Number

What Is It: This is the total number of sperm found in provided semen sample.

What Is Considered Normal: About 39,000,000 (or 39 x 10^6) sperm per ejaculate is considered the lower acceptable limit. Having a lower than normal count of sperm is sometimes called oligospermia. If no sperm cells are found, this is called azoospermia.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Having a lower sperm count may indicate a number of problems, including varicocele, infection, chronic or undiagnosed health problems like diabetes or celiac disease, problems with ejaculation like retrograde ejaculation, duct problems, hormonal imbalances, and exposure to toxic substances.

Abnormally low sperm counts can also be caused by certain medications, recent illness accompanied by high fever, and exposure of the scrotum to heat (as in a hot tub). Smoking, obesity, and excess alcohol intake has been linked to low sperm count. Often, the cause for low sperm count is never found.

Azoospermia may be caused by a duct problem, a hormonal imbalance, or a problem with the testes.

Sperm Concentration

What Is It: Sperm concentration is the number of sperm found in one milliliter of semen.

What Is Considered Normal: There should be at least 15,000,000 (or 15 x 10^6) sperm per millimeter.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Low sperm concentration may be part of an overall low sperm count, or it could be related to an abnormally high ejaculate volume. See above for more on these two issues.

Motility

What Is It: Motility is the percentage of sperm who move. For fertilization to occur, sperm must swim up the female reproductive tract to meet the egg. Being able to swim to their destination is essential. Total motility refers to any movement, while progressive motility refers to forward movement in either a line or in a large circle.

What Is Considered Normal: At least 40% of the sperm should be moving, and at least 32% should swim in a forward movement or in large circles.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Asthenozoospermia is the term used for poor sperm motility. Poor sperm motility may be caused by illness, certain medications, nutritional deficiencies, or poor health habits like smoking. Many of the causes of low sperm count can also cause poor motility. (See above.) Often the cause is never found.

Viability or Vitality

What Is It: Sperm viability refers to the percentage of live sperm in the semen sample. This is especially important to measure if sperm motility is low, so differentiate between live non-motile sperm and dead sperm.

What Is Considered Normal: At least 58% of the sperm cells should be viable.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Necrozoospermia is the term used when all sperm in the semen sample are dead. There are a variety of causes for necrozoospermia, including many of the same things that can cause low sperm count. (See above.)

Using a non-fertility-safe lubricant or regular condom can kill sperm, even if they don't contain spermicide. Be sure to disclose to your doctor if you used lubricant or a regular condom to produce your semen sample. There are fertility-approved lubricants and specialty condoms available for the collection of semen samples. Ask your doctor for more information.

Morphology

What Is It: Sperm morphology refers to the shape of the sperm cells. The lab technician closely examines a sample of sperm, checking to see approximately what percentage have a normal shape. The head, mid-section and tail are evaluated, as well as the measurements and proportions between each.

Before 2010, the World Health Organization had different requirements for sperm to be considered "normal" in shape. Labs may have evaluated sperm morphology according to the WHO criteria, or what is known as Kruger's Strict criteria. However, the 2010 WHO guidelines encourage the use of Kruger's Strict criteria, based on the research of Dr. T.F. Kruger and Dr. R. Menkeveld. Speak to your doctor to find out if they are using the outdated WHO criteria or Kruger's criteria.

What Is Considered Normal: At least 4% should have a normal shape.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Teratozoospermia is the term used for poor sperm morphology. Poor sperm morphology may be cause by the same things that can cause low sperm counts. (See above.)

Sperm morphology is poorly understood, and because the evaluation is somewhat subjective, scores can vary on the same semen sample, in the same lab, using the same scoring techniques. If sperm morphology alone is abnormal, but all the other semen parameters fall within normal limits, then male fertility may still be considered normal.

Liquefaction

What Is It: When semen is ejaculated, it is thick and gelatinous. This is to help it adhere to the cervix. The semen eventually liquefies to enable the sperm to swim better.

What Is Considered Normal: Semen should liquefy within 20 to 30 minutes of ejaculation.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Delayed liquefaction may indicate a problem with the prostate, the seminal vesicles, or the bulbourethral glands, which are also known as the male accessory glands.

If delayed liquefaction occurs, your doctor may follow up with a post-coital test (PCT). This fertility test evaluates the woman's cervical mucus after sexual intercourse. If sperm are found and moving normally, the delayed liquefaction is not consider a problem.

Semen pH

What Is It: Semen pH is a measurement of how acidic or alkaline the semen is. The seminal vesicle fluid should be more alkaline, while the prostate fluids should be more acidic. In combination, they balance each other out in the semen. Semen that is too acidic may kill the sperm or prevent fertilization.

What Is Considered Normal: The semen should have a pH greater than 7.2. Currently, there's no consensus on how more alkaline semen may affect fertility, and so there's no upper pH limit according to the WHO guidelines.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: Usually, low pH is accompanied by other abnormal measurements, including low volume of semen or low sperm counts. This may point to an obstruction or absence of the vas deferens.

White Blood Cells (WBC)

What Is It: White blood cells are the cells that fight infection in the body. All semen includes white blood cells.

What Is Considered Normal: The white blood cell count should be less than 1,000,000 per milliliter of semen, or 1.0 x 10^6 per ml.

What Might Be Wrong if Results Are Abnormal: A higher than normal white blood cell count is known as leukocytospermia, and it may indicate infection. However, some men may have leukocytospermia and not have any active infection or male fertility impairment. In fact, anywhere from 5 to 20% of men tested may be found to have leukocytospermia.

If Your Results Are Abnormal

One abnormal semen analysis result is not necessarily a sign of impaired male fertility. Because so many factors can lead to a poor result, including recent illness or even stress over the test, your doctor will likely repeat the semen analysis in a few weeks. Speak to your doctor about what to expect next, and be sure to disclose any possible causes for poor results (including recent illness, a love of hot tubs or heated car seats, trouble producing a sample for the analysis, and all the medications you're currently taking.)

Had an interesting trip to Gettysburg. After scoping out the local campground we made our way into the town center to see where things were located. We parked on the street next to a shop called Subterranean Soul. Its a shop selling various clothing, vinyl records, and various trinkets.
The owner was present and he reflected his past travels and people he knew who had a bus. He attended Woodstock which made for some interesting stories. ...

Of course, that was also our last trip to their house outside Pinehurst. Given Maui no longer with us and parents sold their house, really glad we took the time for that vacation/road trip. Anyhow, the inside exhibits are free. While the place is relatively small, ...

text: Does Algeria Really Plan On Donating Their World Cup Winnings To Gaza?Samer Kalaf7/03/14 4:55pmFiled to: algeriaislam slimaniworld cupgazadonationsappicbleacher reportScreamer162EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Yesterday, a story surfaced claiming that Algeria striker Islam Slimani said his team would be donating all of their World Cup prize winnings—$9 million was the reported amount, which is accurate for a team eliminated in the Round of 16—to Gaza. That's an extremely generous gesture. It also appears to be bullshit. Advertisement When I clicked on those weird Facebook trending topics and saw the Bleacher Report post, it instantly seemed suspicious. "Islam Slimani: Algeria Will Donate Their World Cup Prize Money to Gaza." Just Gaza? Reading the article didn't provide more details, only "the people of embattled Gaza." Would Algeria just write "To: Gaza" on an envelope with money and hope it went to the people who needed it? Where did the only quote used—"They need it more than us"—come from? Slimani's Twitter and Facebook pages don't mention any donation. Maher Mezahi, who covered the Algerian national team for a few outlets, traced not just the quote, but the origin of the story.Mezahi pointed out that in Algeria's welcoming ceremony, one of the players hung a Palestinian flag over the side of the bus. This could have been the spark for the story.Mezahi traced the first mention back to this random dude.And Mezahi believes a man named Waleed Abu Nada on Twitter added Slimani's quote, and was the catalyst for it getting picked up by actual outlets.French outlet France Football did their part to debunk the donation story, but they also raised another question. I'm using Google Translate here, but an Arabic singer named Ahlam had allegedly promised the Algerian team $10,000 per goal. (This is also in dispute; other articles say she would gift a diamond-encrusted soccer ball if they won the World Cup.) Anyway, per the French article, the players don't want the money and would prefer it go to those in need: Advertisement Advertisement "We do not need it, it would be better to donate to the children of Gaza," replied some Algerian players. Which Algerian players? Some! The same article from Albawaba that mentioned the diamond-encrusted soccer ball attributes a similar quote to Slimani, though according to its timestamp it came out after the France Football story, so it may have just been rehashing it. Even if the quote's true, though, that's a hell of a lot different than saying, "We're giving all our World Cup prize money to Gaza."Bleacher Report has already updated their article, as have other sites. (Google "Islam Slimani Gaza" if you want to see the list of who wrote about it.) The article on 101 Great Goals, which B/R cited, links to a 404 now. Sorry, your faith in humanity cannot be restored with this dubious story. Sponsored Photo: APReply16 repliesLeave a reply
