The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association Recognized by The Washington Post as a "Top Workplace"
(Rockville, MD - June 23, 2014)
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is pleased to announce that it has been recognized as one of The Washington Post
Top Workplaces in the Greater Washington area.
The Top Workplaces program evaluates and recognizes the best employers in 30 regions across the country based on employee opinions expressed in the Workplace Dynamics employee survey. The survey includes 22 questions to measure employee engagement, organizational health, and overall satisfaction.
"We are honored to be recognized as a Top Workplace in the DC area," said ASHA's Chief Executive Officer Arlene Pietranton. "At ASHA, we truly believe that a great workplace is essential to attracting and retaining a talented and engaged workforce, which in turn allows us to better serve the dedicated speech-language pathologists and audiologists who make up our membership."
ASHA's recognition as a top workplace reflects employee satisfaction in the survey's three key organizational categories: overall direction of the company, execution of the company's work, and employees' connection to the overall mission. On June 22, ASHA was featured in a special edition of The Washington Post and profiled on TopWorkplaces.com.
For more information on ASHA's workplace environment, visit the Careers section of ASHA's website.

How to Decorate a Modern Easter Table
Celebrating Easter is all about spending time with family, enjoying a good meal and maybe even treating yourself to a chocolate bunny (or two).
Celebrating Easter is all about spending time with family, enjoying a good meal and maybe even treating yourself to a chocolate bunny (or two).
But sometimes, you want to incorporate some more modern and trendy elements into your Easter celebration, including your table. Include some charming and modern aspects to your Easter table with these five simple things that every table needs.
1. Shades of teal are on trend this Easter and play well shades of blue and green that tie in well with the natural elements of spring.
2. Spring flowers like Tulips and Daffodils are great for adding bursts of Easter color but don't last long. Embrace bulbs in glass vases for a longer lasting floral touch.
3. Fashion a table runner out of crafting moss, it keeps the décor alive for longer and is a great layer for vibrant fresh seasonal flowers.
4. Nothing says Easter more than hand-dipped eggs; design your color palate around your table décor. Creating your own dye by blending colors is a great way to add a personal touch.
5. Go beyond the bowl of Easter eggs and create place cards holders, flowering pots and candles with hand dipped eggs to give your table a more bespoke look.

Richard Cordray has a new tool (toy), and like it or not, he plans to share it with all of us.
Sharing may be caring, but the patronizing, paternalistic attitude with which this product upgrade was unveiled, is almost as offensive as any rule the regulator has promulgated in the name of building a kinder, gentler mortgage marketplace.
Citing a goal of improved transparency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau�s chief unveiled a web-based tool that provides heat maps and illustrative graphs that detail local mortgage market trends, automating data collected under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and used by the Federal government to ensure compliance with regulations.
Users gain web-based access to data on mortgage loan applications and originations, and mortgage loan volume. Also, it records the volume of loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration and the Veterans Administration. The transaction types included are first-lien, owner-occupied, one-to-four family homes and manufactured homes.
The aim is to provide valuable real estate and mortgage information to the public in an accessible way, so taxpayers can understand their local mortgage markets, said Cordray, director of the CFPB.
The data, however, have been available for more than 40 years, and used more or less for the same purposes as Cordray�s new tool, though the traditional, hard-copy version lacked the �user friendliness� that made it�s usefulness to the average user�to consumers, to bankers, to you and me�less than it could be.
But, government employees have used the data to monitor and to identify wrong doers, and after all this time, should be used to its idiosyncrasies.
From Cordray�s enlightened vantage point as high priest of the CFPB, it seemed the data was often overlooked in the past because it was not easy enough to use. And now that it is user friendly, data simpletons across the country can click on a hot spot, identify wrongdoing, and presumably call their friends at the CFPB to commence an investigation.
It�s billed as an elegant, sophisticated technology mixed with straight condescension: It�s so easy to use even taxpayers and borrowers can learn to use it. I�m just not sure what would motivate a borrower to use the technology to perform meaningful, in-depth research, especially once they purchase their homes. They want to attain the American dream of homeownership, not become policy wonks, much less investigators.
It�s clear, however, that Cordray disagrees with that assessment.
He is hard at work creating a regulator we can all admire. It�s an organization that delivers data to the masses that�s easy to analyze even if they don�t have an interest in using it, while it defends them from sleazy mortgage actors.
I�m sure many of us feel safer already.
The web-based offering makes it possible for taxpayers to amuse themselves for a few minutes by clicking on a county in the U.S. and seeing mortgage data. Those people, however, will likely not be the ones that are making sure that lenders comply with the law. That responsibility rests, as it always has, with the Federal government and those it employs, who presumably can make sense of its own data�especially when it suggests a lender is running afoul of the law.
Just how likely it is that the tool will shed new insights on HMDA data, the high priest failed to say. He merely suggests that form over function will prevail and the mortgage market will be a better, cleaner, stronger, and more compliant as a result.
Don�t believe it.

When Facebook and commerce are in the same sentence, passions ignite! Most are provocative opinions (very good for getting attention). However, most of these opinions fall short, missing key insights and data (a balanced perspective that informs good decision making).
In my three previous columns, I laid out a practical approach, and data, taking the position that the case for commerce is emerging: Traffic x Conversion x Average order sale = Sales.
I have more data to share that contributes to the emerging case for commerce.
The value of a customer review shared on Facebook is $15.72. Below is the calculation detail.
Download an interactive version of this calculator and plug in your own numbers.
The Case for Commerce Is Emerging
A Forrester report, "Will Facebook Ever Drive eCommerce?" by Sucharita Mulpuru, a woman with deep expertise and someone I very much respect, provides an interesting perspective. She rightly points out bringing Facebook into the e-commerce experience yields results as evidenced by Amazon, PowerReviews, Quorus, Fluid, TurnTo, and others referenced in her report. However (and I know she appreciates a spirited, supported debate), I believe she missed key points, framed the analysis within a declining model (overreliance on Google traffic), and omitted the data that demonstrates there are elements of an emerging case for commerce. The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal also missed very key points.
In addition to points made in my earlier three columns, consider this:
Facebook is a net new source of traffic.
- The data around referral traffic from Facebook has been reported on since last August. All are missing this critical point. Every site wants traffic and is overreliant on Google. Most are struggling to increase efficacy of affiliate, comp shop, and email programs. Even if that traffic referred from Facebook converts at a lower rate than Google, it is a net new source of traffic and therefore sales. Comparing Facebook only in the context of Google traffic and performance is a false positive. It's an and not an or. Sucharita misses this critical point. With Google occupying more real estate on the SERP and taking commerce traffic that used to go to retail sites and directing it to its shopping destination, Google Shopping, retailers need this net new source of traffic.
- Is Google Taking Your Traffic? Google is the consumers' choice when searching for information. Will Google be the consumers' choice when shopping?
- Amazon received 7.7 percent and eBay received 4.7 percent of traffic referred from Facebook in October 2010. Even if that traffic converted at 25 percent of their conversion rate (but I suspect it was higher), that's real money.
Customer Reviews Are Driving Referral Traffic and Sales
The following have published the sales value of a "share" to Facebook:
- Eventbrite: Every link shared on Facebook generated $2.52 in ticket sales.
- Ticketmaster: Every time a user posted in their newsfeed that they bought a ticket from Ticketmaster, friends spent an additional $5.30 on Ticketmaster (presumably for the same event).
- Our experience (statistically significant sample of 1,100 U.S. clients): When a customer review is shared, $15.72 sales is generated.
Some of the other data revealed in our analysis of reviews and Facebook:
Steps to Increase the Number of "Shares" to Facebook
- Generate more reviews that then can be shared:
- Post-purchase emails represent 90+ percent of customer review generation. Sending a second post-purchase email to non-responders increases review quantity (as CSN is doing).
- A/B test the post-purchase email to get increased email open rate and review submissions (as Gap, Room & Board, Evo, and Onlineshoes.com are doing).
- Solicit reviews from in-store purchasers (as Staples, Room & Board, Ulta, and Borders are doing).
- Lower the barriers to writing a review by having an easy-to-start-and-complete Write a Review form. (Please don't make registered customers complete an additional login to write a review!)
- Make it easy for your customers to share while in the write-a-review process, on a product page, or on social networks.
- Make it easier for your consumers to engage at deeper levels with you, increasing the rate at which they share. Consumers who use Facebook Connect share their reviews on Facebook five times more than consumers who do not.

Christmas came early to several students at Steele Jr. High School recently.
Academy Sports and Outdoors in Gadsden donated 30 bicycles, helmets and backpacks to students.
Manager Michael Bishop said this is the 12th year for Academy Sports and Outdoors to do this for a local school.
"We choose a different school every year," Bishop said. "It just means so much to us to be able to give back to different communities.
"Academy likes to promote the outdoor lifestyle, and this is just one way to give something to a kid they can use in the outdoors. This means a lot to us."
SJHS Counselor Summer Burke said the gift "is just awesome."
"We are very proud and thankful of what Academy Sports and Outdoors has donated to students at Steele Jr. High School," Burke said. "It's exciting and just wonderful."
SJHS physical education teacher Clint Hathcock said this is a great deal for Academy Sports and Outdoors to do this.
"It is so generous for them to do this," Hathcock said. "They are giving back to schools and communities. They focus on helping students, and that's great."

Another one of my classic TransGriot posts for your Feministe reading pleasure.
There was a recent Battlestar Galactica episode in which Sharon and her husband Helo were discussing some issues. During the conversation Helo remarked that to him his Cylon wife was always human. She countered that to the rest of the fleet she has to prove that every day.
I feel her on that.
There are times during this gender journey that I feel like Sharon. No matter how fly I look, how smart I am, how many awards I garner, how good a job I do and how many times my genetic girlfriends, supportive family members and classmates that are still in my life tell me that I am what I've known I was supposed to be, I still feel like Sharon in the fact that I have to prove my womanhood every day.
Sometimes that can get to be a pain in the ass.
Yeah, I'll admit that there are some days that I wish that I'd been born female from jump and get to experience everything about it. Usually the transmen I know will tell me otherwise and extol how happy they are to escape cramps, bloating, the cycle, et cetera. Even my girlfriends will tell me they consider me the lucky one. I'll sometimes respond with the comment that no one questions your femininity nor do you have to think about it on a regular basis. However, I do share one aspect of it with my genetic sisters. I now have a heightened risk for breast cancer and have to do mammograms and regular breast exams.
But as philosopher Simone de Beauvoir once stated, 'Great women are made, not born.'
I may have only been female externally for thirteen years, but in a sense I've been prepping for this point in my life for a long time. My goal is to be the best woman I can be despite being born in a male body. To me that means observing the great examples of positive women in my own family, my feminine role models famous and not-so-famous (which I'm profiling in my Women I Admire posts) and incorporating their best qualities into my own life.
One thing I'm acutely aware of growing up in a family of historians is the great contributions that Black women have and continue to make to advance our people. Uplifting the race in terms of community service is a part of Black womanhood that I eagerly embrace. All the sisters that I've read about and witnessed doing positive things inspires me to step it up another level.
I'm cognizant of the fact that Black women are considered trendsetters in terms of fashion and their images. I'm considered a role model in the transgender community and have to pay attention to the image that I project to the outside world. Not a problem since I like fashionable clothes, get a manicure and pedicure every two weeks, hair is on point and I rarely leave the house without my face done. The fact that I have a fashionista diva as a roommate who will not hesitate to call me out along with my best girlfriends doesn't hurt either.
With hormones, electrolysis, laser hair removal and surgery the physical part of transition is easy. The toughest part is the spiritual and emotional end of it. That part of the feminine journey doesn't end until they close the coffin lid on you. Getting in tune with the spiritual and emotional side is a must and too many of my transsistahs ignore or are unaware of that aspect of womanhood.
Black womanhood is a lofty goal to live up to. Sometimes I believe that some of the genetic women in my family dismiss the prayerful seriousness I place on being a compliment and not a detriment to the women (and men) that are related to me. I realized in my youth I don't just represent me, I represent my family and the entire African-American community. My interactions with society must be on point and reflect that at all times.
Nothing in life is easy. Being an African-American transwoman definitely isn't. It's hard work and frustrating as hell sometimes. All these words about my latest take on being transgender get boiled down to one simple fact: I'm happily living life in my own skin.
Even if I have to constantly prove that I'm one of the girls.

Here's a taster:
Since atoms are so small, any sensible laboratory quantity of substance must contain a huge
number of atoms:
1 litre of water contains 3.3 x 1025 molecules.
1 gram of magnesium contains 2.5 x 1022 atoms.
100 cm3 of oxygen contains 2.5 x 1021molecules.
Such numbers are not convenient to work with, so it is necessary to find a unit of "amount"
which corresponds better to the sort of quantities of substance normally being measured.…read more

Here's a taster:
The mass of one mole of a substance is known as its molar mass, and has units of gmol1. It
must be distinguished from relative atomic/molecular/formula mass, which is a ratio and hence
has no units, although both have the same numerical value.
The symbol for molar mass of compounds or molecular elements is mr. The symbol for molar
mass of atoms is ar.…read more

Here's a taster:
It is possible to use the relationship moles = mass/mr to deduce the masses of reactants and
products that will react with each other.
When performing calculations involving reacting masses, there are two main points which must
be taken into account:
The total combined mass of the reactants must be the same as the total combined mass
of the products. This is known as the law of conservation of mass.…read more

Here's a taster:
Many inorganic reactions go to completion. Reactions which go to completion are said to be
quantitative. It is because the reactions go to completion that the substances can be analysed
in this way.
Some reactions, however, particularly organic reactions, do not go to completion. It is possible
to calculate the percentage yield of product by using the following equation:
% yield = amount of product formed x 100
maximum amount of product possible
Eg 2.0 g of ethanol (C2H5OH) is oxidised to ethanoic acid (CH3COOH).…read more

Here's a taster:
When we carry out a chemical reaction in order to make a product, we often make other
products, called byproducts, as well.
Eg In the production of NaOH from NaCl the following reaction takes place:
2NaCl + 2H2O 2NaOH + H2 + Cl2
The atom economy of a reaction is the percentage of the total mass of reactants that can, in
theory, be converted into the desired product.…read more

Here's a taster:
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances in which the proportions of
the substances are identical throughout the mixture.
The major component of a solution is called the solvent and the minor components are called
the solutes. In most cases water is the solvent.
The amount of solute present in a fixed quantity of solvent or solution is called the
concentration of the solution.…read more

Here's a taster:
The volume of one solution required to react with a known volume of another can be deduced
from the above relationships and knowledge of the relevant chemical equation. Remember it is
moles which react in the ratio shown, so all quantities must be converted to moles before the
comparison can be made.
The quantitative investigation of chemical reactions by comparing reacting volumes is known as
volumetric analysis. The procedure by which reacting volumes are determined is known as a
titration.…read more

Here's a taster:
The volume occupied by a gas depends on a number of factors:
i) the temperature: the hotter the gas, the faster the particles are moving and the
more space they will occupy
ii) the pressure: the higher the pressure, the more compressed the gas will be and the
less space it will occupy
iii) the amount of gas: the more gas particles there are, the more space they will
The volume occupied by a gas does not depend on what gas it is,…read more
Page 10
Here's a taster:
Using the four relationships described, it is possible to calculate the amount of any substance in
a chemical reaction provided that the chemical equation is known and the amount of one of the
reacting species is also known. The procedure is summarised in the table below:
These relationships are frequently used in practical chemistry.…read more

As some of you may have noticed in my bio that Jill posted, I'm a self proclaimed geek. One thing that I'm particularly passionate about is video gaming. I've been a huge gamer for almost as long as I can remember. My father purchased one of our first gaming systems, waaay back in the 2600 days. I can still remember the first computer that my folks had- it used a cassette tape as data storage- and the games I used to play on it (basically, a really primitive version of Space Invaders… only, with a single enemy). I still remember the sense of excitement and wonder when my parents brought home the ol' Tandy computer- it had color graphics and a floppy drive. That was a big deal. Twenty plus years, multiple computers, and over ten platforms later, I'm still an avid gamer.
In the over two decades that I've been playing, gaming has changed tremendously- systems are more powerful, the graphics are prettier, the controls are better, and the stories they can tell are more involved and interesting. Lately, I've been particularly interested in the stories. As a feminist, and a philosophy student, I'm particularly interested in the intersection of gaming and morality/ethics. Not in a casual "games are corrupting our society" sort of way- but in the ways that games contribute to and are effected by our society, and the ways that we can explore and learn about complicated moral issues through the use of games.
For all that games have the ability to raise interesting and challenging moral and ethical issues, I'm forced to admit that a lot of them have a long way to go. Sexism and racism are still really common in games- and not just in the really explicit Grand Theft Auto sense. Honestly, Grand Theft Auto is almost the least of my concerns- it's so blatantly sexist and racist, that it's easy to avoid it, and it's really easy to criticize and make a case for why I object to it. The problem with video gaming is that some of the sexism and racism is harder to make people grasp. For me, the problem becomes: how do I reconcile my progressive values with the undercurrent (and overcurrent) of sexism and racism that surround gaming? How do I help change things?
For a long time, one of the major complaints about gaming was the inability to play as a woman. That is: The majority of the playable characters in video games have been men. That's been the case since gaming became popular. There are a few exceptions, of course- Samus from Metroid, for example- but the bulk of the heroes in games are men. As gaming has matured, the option to play as a woman has become more common. Fighting games might have been the first genre to make ready use of playable female characters. I think that every major fighting game has at least a handful of playable women. Of course, men still outnumber the women, and whites dominate racially.
Even when you do get the option to play as a woman, though, you're still hard pressed to escape from some pretty sexist depictions. Consider this article on the case of World of Warcraft- the most popular MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). I'm not much of a RPG fan, but Moira, over at Feminist Gamers took a look at the Final Fantasy games' portrayal of women, and it doesn't look like they're much better, despite being, arguably, the most popular RPG series ever made.
Women in fighting games are often even worse- the popular fighting game series Dead or Alive thrives on the blatantly sexual way that the women are presented. The makers of the DoA series take pride in the "breast physics" of the game, and the myriad of hyper sexualized costume choices that the game offers for the female characters. Looking across the multitude of fighting games, and you'll find that the majority of them feature women in costumes that hypersexualize them while the men tend to be dressed more appropriately for whatever role they're in.
In terms of race, a lot of games don't do any better. When I took a look through the games I own- in excess of 100 titles- I could only find a couple of games that feature non-white or non-Asian playable characters. The majority of the games I own featured white heroes, with a few games about Samurai or Ninja featuring Japanese characters. The only games that featured black or Hispanic players were fighting games, and even those were, sadly, rare. According to microscopiq, there have been all of eleven black main characters.
Five of those are either games based on black characters from movie properties, or black celebs. And one- Jade, from Beyond Good and Evil- is pretty racially ambiguous.
The problem is how to make people realize that there's a problem, when there are so many vocal gaming fans who argue that this isn't a problem. Browse through some of the more popular gaming sites and you're likely to find that, when it comes up at all, feminist or anti-racist concerns about gaming are met with the same dismissals as most feminist concerns are. The criticisms are dismissed with a wave of the hand and a "games are made by men for men, so of course women are sexualized- we like looking at naked/mostly naked women," or some other all too common justification. They point to the few games that do feature strong female characters as though that excuses the rampant misogyny of other games. Voices condemning the racism withing games are all but absent from mainstream conversations.
Add to that the fact that the most vocal critics of video games tend to be people like Jack Thompson or NIMF (the National Institute on Media and the Family) who accuse video games of being murder simulators or promoting cannibalism- and you'll find that a lot of gamers are particularly hostile towards criticism of gaming, even from fellow gamers. Women and feminists are made unwelcome in many gaming circles, and concerns about sexism and racism in games go unheard, ignored, or mocked.
I'm not sure what the solution is, yet, but I know that it's not silence.
What do we do about a game like, say, Soul Calibur 3?
On the one hand, most of the women are moderately to extremely sexualized, and there's a distinct lack of racial variety. On the other, the game includes a fairly robust character creation mode. In it, the player can make a woman who looks awesome, but is appropriately outfitted for combat- wearing armor that looks like armor, and not just a chain mail bikini. The women created by the company are rather lacking, but the ability to make your own is fantastic. Should they be rewarded for the creation mode, or punished for the sexist characters they start the player with?
And what form does that even take? Does not buying the game count as punishment? Do we write letters?
And, I think it's important to note, this is just a tiny slice of the bigotry that permeates video gaming. This doesn't touch on the transphobia and homophobia within games and that seems to be rampant amongst gamers, or the ways that online gamers harass women gamers, for example. This doesn't touch on the blatant sexism that many gaming magazines encourage and participate in when they publish pin-ups of various female characters, or when game manufacturers put their characters in Playboy.
As someone who is extremely invested in gaming culture, it's not easy for me to so harshly criticize my hobby. It's hard to admit that something I'm so involved with and have spent so much time, money, and energy in has so many problems, and is so hostile towards so many groups.
I guess I'm wondering- for gamers: what do you do to reconcile your love of gaming with the problems that exist in the gaming community? Do you do anything to try to change things or to fight the sexism/racism/homophobia that's so common, for example, in online gaming? And, what games would you suggest to feminist and anti-racist gamers?
For the non-gamers on here (if you've read this far): is there anything in particular about gaming that's kept you away? Were you aware of these issues? Is there something that would get you interested in gaming? What do you think can be done to help fight the bigotry in the gaming community?
Finally: I think that one of the most bothersome aspects of the conversation is how to make other gamers realize that criticisms of the sexism/racism/homophobia/transphobia within the games and within the culture surrounding the games is not the same as a criticism of gaming in general. That is: How do we convince other gamers that we want to improve games, not take them away? It seems like any time I've raised an objection or asked people to consider sexism or racism in games, there are people who think that I'm suggesting that games should be censored or that gaming as a hobby is wrong. There must be a way to get people to realize that a complaint about the problems is not a call to abolish gaming, right?

The concept of cursor sharing is simple. If an application executes SQL statements containing literals and if cursor sharing is enabled (i.e. CURSOR_SHARING=FORCE), the database engine automatically replaces the literals with bind variables. Thanks to these replacements, hard parses might be turned into soft parses for the SQL statements that differ only in the literals. […]Read More

Very good Corn Bread. Having grown up on a farm I learned early on that the one thing that puts a crown on Corn Bread is Bacon. Fry up some bacon till crisp. Crumble it and put it and some bacon grease in the bottom of the skillet instead of EVOO. MMMMMMMMMgood. Now top the corn bread with Apple butter and Pot cheese. Who needs fancy food? God Bless. Cap'n Jack
Surprisingly good for so little oil/grease. I would definitely make this again. Thanks for the note about doubling the recipe but keeping it at one egg. Because next time I will double this recipe. I made buttermilk with soymilk and one tablespoon of vinegar. Although this is not the sweet cornbread I am used to I think it's delicious and goes great with a stew. Thank you.
This is very good. We don't like our cornbread too sweet and this fit the bill. Great with a bowl of chili. Simple to make and loved it in the cast iron skillet. Made for Spring 2009 PAC.

Toxic daily threshold of alcohol consumption is 40-80 g for males and 20-40 g for females for 10-12 years.
Signs of alcohol abuse and hepatic injury include malnutrition and muscle wasting, cutaneous telangiectasia, palmar erythema, finger clubbing, Dupuytren's contracture, peripheral neuropathy, parotid gland enlargement and signs of gynecomastia and hypogonadism may also be present.
Most fissures are seen by separating the buttocks with opposing traction of the thumbs.
Majority of fissures are located in the posterior midline of the anus.
Acute fissures are simple splits or cracks in the anoderm while chronic fissures may show secondary changes eg sentinel tag, hypertrophied anal papilla, rolled edges, fibrosis of the edges or deep ulceration with exposure of the underlying internal sphincter muscle.
It is considered a premalignant metaplastic condition that usually involves the distal esophagus.
It is postulated that exposure of the esophageal epithelium to acid damages the lining resulting in chronic esophagitis and its healing involves metaplastic process.
Symptoms usually start on days 4-9 of antibiotic treatment, but may also occur up to 8-10 weeks after discontinuation of antibiotics.
Discontinuation of antibiotics may be the only measure needed for patients with only mild diarrhea, no fever, no abdominal pain nor a high WBC count.
Cessation of antibiotics allows for reconstitution of the normal colonic microflora and markedly reduces risk of relapse.
It is the 2nd most common cancer in women and third most common cancer in male worldwide. It commonly arises from adenomatous polyps.
It is strongly linked to age with 83% occurring in people ≥60 years old.
Rectal cancer is defined as cancerous lesions located within 12 cm of the anal verge.
Difficult stool passage may include straining, feeling of difficulty in passing stool, incomplete evacuation, lumpy/hard stools, prolonged time to defecate, need for manual maneuver to pass stool, abdominal discomfort and feeling of anorectal blockade.
Chronic constipation is considered when symptoms of constipation have existed ≥3 months.
Symptoms of chronic constipation may be due to dysfunction of intestinal motility, visceral sensitivity, anorectal musculature or the enteric nervous system.
The definition of chronic diarrhea based on symptoms alone will lead to an overlap with functional bowel disorders eg irritable bowel syndrome.
Diarrhea that is continuous or nocturnal and lasting <3 months is more likely due to an organic disease.
The absence of abdominal pain during defecation and presence of weight loss are points against the diagnosis of functional bowel syndrome eg irritable bowel syndrome.
Infectious diarrhea is diarrhea of infectious origin (bacteria, virus, protozoal) and is usually associated with symptoms of nausea and vomiting and abdominal cramps.
Dysentery (invasive diarrhea) has the presence of visible blood in diarrheic stool.
Abdominal pain is usually localized to the left lower quadrant, is abrupt, steady, severe and worsens over time.
Other signs and symptoms are fever, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and altered bowel movements especially constipation but may also present with diarrhea or tenesmus.
Dyspepsia is having any one of the following: disturbing postprandial fullness, early satiation, epigastric pain and/or burning felt predominantly in the upper abdomen.
It is considered a symptom complex rather than a specific diagnosis.
Acid suppression is the recommended initial therapy.
Most of gastric cancers are adenocarcinomas, subdivided according to histological appearances into diffuse (undifferentiated) and intestinal (well differentiated) types.
It is the 4th most common cancer and the 2nd most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.
Most common sites of gastric cancer are the proximal lesser curvature, cardia and esophagogastric junction.
It is produced by various mechanisms such as frequent occurrence of transient relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter or pressure abnormalities in the lower esophageal sphincter (which can be caused by hormonal and neural mediators, food, drugs and patient lifestyle).
Typical symptoms are acid regurgitation and heartburn.
Regurgitation is the perception of flow of refluxed gastric contents into the mouth or hypopharynx.
Heartburn is defined as burning sensation in the retrosternal region.
Signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal tumor include presence of abdominal mass (which may be an incidental finding in endoscopy), gastrointestinal bleeding, hemoperitoneum, anemia and gastrointestinal perforation.
Infection is strongly associated with the development of gastric epithelial and lymphoid malignancies.
Acute infection is mostly asymptomatic and is acquired through human-to-human contact via gastro-oral and fecal-oral routes.
Adaptability in gastric conditions and production of urease allow it to colonize the stomach.
External hemorrhoids are located closer to the anal verge and are covered with squamous epithelium. It produces symptoms only when thrombosed or when they give rise to large skin tags which make hygiene difficult. Common symptoms are anal pain of acute onset and a palpable lump in the perianal area.
Internal hemorrhoids originate above the dentate line and are covered with rectal or transitional mucosa. It does not cause cutaneous pain. Prolapse of internal hemorrhoids may cause bleeding, mucus discharge, fecal soiling and anal pruritus.
Hepatitis A generally causes minor illness in childhood with >80% of infections being asymptomatic but more likely to produce clinical symptoms in adults.
Hepatitis B, C, & D may also be asymptomatic.
Hepatitis A is predominantly transmitted through oral-fecal route.
Hepatitis B is transmitted through perinatal, percutaneous, or sexual routes or close person-to-person contact via open cuts and sores.
Hepatitis C infections are transmitted through perinatal, percutaneous, or sexual routes, blood transfusions, or organ transplants.
Hepatitis D's route of transmission is sexual or percutaneous, especially IV drug use.
Hepatitis E is transmitted primarily through contaminated drinking water and oral-fecal transmission.
Ulcerative colitis is a diffuse mucosal inflammation limited to the colon while Crohn's disease is a patchy, transmural inflammation that occurs in any part of the gastrointestinal tract.
The ileum and colon are the most frequently affected sites.
In the hollow viscera is where common disruptions occur, which allows intraluminal bacteria to invade and proliferate in the usually sterile area (ie peritoneal cavity or retroperitoneum).
Community-acquired intra-abdominal infection is usually secondary to gastroduodenal perforation, ascending cholangitis, cholecystitis, appendicitis, colon diverticulitis with or without perforation, or pancreatitis.
Uncomplicated IAI infectious process involves only a single organ and does not extend to the peritoneum.
Complicated IAI is when infection extends beyond the hollow viscus of origin into the peritoneal space and may be associated with peritonitis or abscess formation.
There are no identifiable physical, radiologic or lab abnormalities indicative of organic disease.
Symptoms may be exacerbated by stress, alcohol or food.
Classical presentation includes fever, jaundice, and right upper quadrant symptoms (pain, guarding, rocking and rebound tenderness).
Biliary tract disease is the most common cause of bacterial liver abscess.
Most pyogenic liver abscesses are polymicrobial (eg enteric facultative and anaerobic species).
Vomiting is a partially voluntary act of forceful expelling of stomach contents up to and out of the mouth that may or may not be preceded by nausea.
Retching or repetitive active contraction of the abdominal muscles occurs between nausea and vomiting.
Management includes correction of clinically relevant metabolic complications, pharmacological therapy and treatment of underlying cause.
They arise from cells throughout the diffuse endocrine system.
Carcinoid tumors and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are the most common.
Carcinoid tumors arise from the lungs & bronchi, stomach, small intestine, appendix, rectum or thymus.
Majority of the neuroendocrine tumors are sporadic but some tumors are caused by inherited genetic syndromes such as multiple endocrine neoplasia, Von-Hippel Lindau disease, tuberous sclerosis complex and neurofibromatosis.
They have the ability to store and secrete various peptides and neuroamines.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is having excessive fat (in the form of triglycerides) accumulation not due to excessive alcohol consumption or other secondary causes.
It is considered as a hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome.
Progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is variable.
It is the 13th most common cancer in the world, 10th most common in the United States, and 4th leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United Stated and Europe.
Exocrine tumors account for 95% of malignant pancreatic disease.
It is more common in women.
The median age of occurrence is at 71 years old.
Abdominal pain is the most prominent symptom of acute pancreatitis.
It is diagnosed by at least two of the following: characteristic abdominal pain, serum amylase or lipase levels ≥3 times the upper limit of normal and characteristic abdominal imaging findings.
Mild acute pancreatitis does not have any organ failure or local or systemic complication.
Moderately severe acute pancreatitis has the presence of local or systemic complication and/or transient organ failure in <48 hours.
Severe acute pancreatitis has organ failure persistent in >48 hours.
Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain that is epigastric in location that radiates to the back and frequently occurs at night or after meals, symptoms of fat, protein & carbohydrates maldigestion that become apparent with advanced chronic pancreatitis and presence of diarrhea.
Chronic pancreatitis results in destruction of alpha and beta cells which gives rise to deficiencies of both insulin and glucagon.
It can be caused by protozoan parasites and helminths.
Host susceptibility factors in gastrointestinal parasitic infections are nutritional status, intercurrent disease, pregnancy, immunosuppressive drugs and presence of a malignancy.
Knowledge of the geographic distribution of parasites is helpful in the diagnosis of patients.
It is the principal cause of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
Appropriate therapy depends on the cause of peptic ulcer disease.
Primary biliary cirrhosis is chronic, progressive, autoimmune, cholestatic liver disease more common in middle-aged women. It is characterized by destruction of small to medium bile ducts, leading to cholestasis and frequently, end-stage liver disease.
Diagnostic features are chronic biochemical cholestasis, presence of antimitochondrial antibodies and the characteristic liver biopsy findings.
At present, the diagnosis is most often made in an asymptomatic patient who presents with abnormal lab results on a routine checkup or as part of workup for an associated illness.
Approximately two-thirds of patients have sporadic ZES while the rest is part of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1.
ZES should be considered in the differential diagnoses of patients who present with abdominal pain, malabsorption and chronic watery diarrhea.
A high index of clinical awareness is necessary to correctly diagnose ZES.

Sobre nosotros
The Center for Sexual Pleasure and Health is a small developing 501(c)3 organization changing the national conversation on sexual health and pleasure. We, like the World Health Organization, define sexual health as not just the absence of disease but the potential for pleasure. We achieve these goals by working collaboratively with medical and behavioral health professionals to promote medically accurate and affirming information. The CSPH is uniquely qualified to lead this conversation as an organization founded and governed by certified sexuality educators, licensed social workers, and practicing physicians.
Since 2009, our interdisciplinary team approach has ensured that our work addresses the physical, emotional, and mental needs that arise within the complex intersections of health and pleasure. We're deeply committed to providing quality education and products so every professional can effectively treat patients experiencing sexuality related concerns.
Our Vision
The CSPH envisions a world where people can have candid dialogue about sexuality without shame or fear. We work to educate individuals and spark dialogue, especially around topics that may be very difficult, in service of creating a more sexually literate society and promoting sexual health and wellness.

A Manhattan Yaqui
Author Luis Urrea started the fictionalized saga of his own great-aunt Teresita, a Yaqui curandera known as the Saint of Cabora, in the acclaimed 2006 novel The Hummingbird's Daughter. More recently, he caught up with the rest of her story in a surprising sequel, Queen of America, in which the peasant saint goes north. Of that book, now out in paperback, he's written, "It is, by nature of the milieu, different from its predecessor. Yet it still trods the pathways of the former book. You can imagine it this way: Nineteenth-century indigenous Mexico offers different magic than, say, early-twentieth-century Manhattan. It goes from a planted, native tale to the story of immigrants entering not only a new world, but a new century. With miracles. Or: How does a young woman go from Mexican sainthood to her day's version of pop-stardom? How does one try to be the Madonna while being Madonna?"
Urrea, a personable author who views life equally through lenses of humor and activism, will be at the Tattered Cover Book Store, 2526 Colfax Avenue, tonight at 7:30 p.m. to read from Queen of America and discuss its twist on the immigrant story. Admission is free, and copies of the book will be available for $14.99; visit www.tatteredcover.com or call 303-322-7727 for details.

Judy, plantaginea is called August Lily by old gardeners because it blooms in
August, as do most of the fragrant hostas.
I have lots of hostas that are putting out a new flush of leaves while a
couple at the bottom turn orange or brown and I just pull them off.
Sometimes it is not enough moisture.
Check to make sure that there is no mulch around the crown as this will
promote fungus and crown rot. Sometimes it is too much moisture, stick your
finger into the ground near the crown and see how damp it is.
Sure others have ideas about the problem, or not a problem. N.

My Reviews
Made Hair Frizzy
Posted by Reviewer2521015 on Aug 27, 2010
This conditioner made my hair very frizzy. I have wavy, coarse, and dry ends. This made my hair unmanageable. I have to spray on an oil base for my hair to be flat and smooth, yet making it look oily. When I put it on in the shower, it seems to just go away or that my hair soaked up the product. I end up using a lot, especially for my long hair. I can't wait to finish this bottle and move on. Way to much frizz and fly away.

I have these planes and they might appear a bit dated now (the VC's perhaps especially.I liked the wind noise in the Staggerwing which changed sound with change in speed. I have a couple galleries for these birdsLago Stinsonhttp://www.the-airfi...son_snowy1.htmlLago Staggerwinghttp://www.the-airfi...go_Staggerwing/Bill Lyons Stinsonhttp://www.the-airfi...Float_dusk.htmlFrom what I recall , I liked the Lyons Stinson better. The Lago Staggerwing is kindof cool but as I said , might be a bit old in the VC and model.

the Lago version is still fun... I like it better than the Simtech version (shose shape I think is a bit off unless it depicts a different variant).I would think the Staggerwing would be popular as a newly created release by someone else for fs2004 and fsx ... Maybe there isn't enough market for older GA aircraft though.

I just refound this post in a search and see I had a question I never replied to.The scenery in my pics is just just from FSGenesis mesh.I don't think I had any ground texture replacements but possibly free ones at that time.I just reinstalled the Lago Staggering ... I like the noise that increases in pitch as the speed goes high! Still a pretty good aircraft for fs2004

By the way, for anyone who has no antivirus program, and is frequently

disinfecting once won't help much if the someone else doesn't also

I prefer the Norton antivirus program too.

A Deep feeling of jealously fills my soul
I can't stop it. It out of control.
It pulls and tugs at my heart
Feels likes a thousand darts
I scream and shout
But no one is about.
I look and plea
But no on I see
I walk during the starless nights
Knowing no is right
I see nobody nor thing
I just see time going
I look up into darkness
I see a light of holiness
I hear a voice
A voice I love so I rejoice
He walks and softly says
I love you baby as we lay
In the morning light
And no more night
I leap for joy
I love this boy
Tears fill my eyes
Knowing I will never say good bye.
