- 1+ 23- 2
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead
- 2+ 9- 0
Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives, no support, we've put it in an impossible situation. Margaret Mead
- 3+ 16- 2
I've been married three times -- and each time I married the right person. Margaret Mead
- 4+ 11- 1
We won't have a society if we destroy the environment. Margaret Mead
- 5+ 4- 0
If we are to achieve a richer culture, rich in contrasting values, we must recognize the whole gamut of human potentialities, and so weave a less arbitrary social fabric, one in which each diverse human gift will find a fitting place. Margaret Mead
- 6+ 3- 0
Our treatment of both older people and children reflects the value we place on independence and autonomy. We do our best to make our children independent from birth. We leave them all alone in rooms with the lights out and tell them, Go to sleep by yourselves. And the old people we respect most are the ones who will fight for their independence, who would sooner starve to death than ask for help. Margaret Mead
- 7+ 3- 1
One of the oldest human needs is having someone wonder where you are when you don't come home at night. Margaret Mead
- 8+ 2- 0
Instead of needing lots of children, we need high-quality children. Margaret Mead
- 9+ 2- 0
If you associate enough with older people who do enjoy their lives, who are not stored away in any golden ghettos, you will gain a sense of continuity and of the possibility for a full life. Margaret Mead
- 10+ 2- 0
The suffering of either sex -- of the male who is unable, because of the way in which he was reared, to take the strong initiating or patriarchal role that is still demanded of him, or of the female who has been given too much freedom of movement as a child to stay placidly within the house as an adult -- this suffering, this discrepancy, this sense of failure in an enjoined role, is the point of leverage for social change. Margaret Mead
- 11+ 2- 0
People in America, of course, live in all sorts of fashions, because they are foreigners, or unlucky, or depraved, or without ambition; people live like that, but Americans live in white detached houses with green shutters. Rigidly, blindly, the dream takes precedence. Margaret Mead
- 12+ 2- 1
A city is a place where there is no need to wait for next week to get the answer to a question, to taste the food of any country, to find new voices to listen to and familiar ones to listen to again. Margaret Mead
- 13+ 2- 1
It is an open question whether any behavior based on fear of eternal punishment can be regarded as ethical or should be regarded as merely cowardly. Margaret Mead
- 14+ 1- 0
The liberals have not softened their view of actuality to make themselves live closer to the dream, but instead sharpen their perceptions and fight to make the dream actuality or give up the battle in despair. Margaret Mead
- 15+ 1- 0
I was brought up to believe that the only thing worth doing was to add to the sum of accurate information in the world. Margaret Mead
- 16+ 1- 0
Sooner or later I'm going to die, but I'm not going to retire. Margaret Mead
- 17+ 1- 0
Each home has been reduced to the bare essentials -- to barer essentials than most primitive people would consider possible. Only one woman's hands to feed the baby, answer the telephone, turn off the gas under the pot that is boiling over, soothe the older child who has broken a toy, and open both doors at once. She is a nutritionist, a child psychologist, an engineer, a production manager, an expert buyer, all in one. Her husband sees her as free to plan her own time, and envies her; she sees him as having regular hours and envies him. Margaret Mead
- 18+ 1- 1
Women should be permitted to volunteer for non-combat service, they should not be accepted, voluntarily or through the draft, as combat soldiers. We know of no comparable ways of training women and girls, and we have no real way of knowing whether the kinds of training that teach men both courage and restraint would be adaptable to women or effective in a crisis. But the evidence of history and comparative studies of other species suggest that women as a fighting body might be far less amenable to the rules that prevent warfare from becoming a massacre and, with the use of modern weapons, that protect the survival of all humanity. This is what I meant by saying that women in combat might be too fierce. Margaret Mead
- 19+ 1- 1
The institution of marriage in all societies is a pattern within which the strains put by civilization on males and females alike must be resolved, a pattern within which men must learn, in return for a variety of elaborate rewards, new forms in which sexual spontaneity is still possible, and women must learn to discipline their receptivity to a thousand other considerations. Margaret Mead
- 20+ 1- 1
For the very first time the young are seeing history being made before it is censored by their elders. Margaret Mead
- 21+ 1- 1
If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages? Margaret Mead
- 22+ 0- 0
The city as a center where, any day in any year, there may be a fresh encounter with a new talent, a keen mind or a gifted specialist -- this is essential to the life of a country. To play this role in our lives a city must have a soul -- a university, a great art or music school, a cathedral or a great mosque or temple, a great laboratory or scientific center, as well as the libraries and museums and galleries that bring past and present together. A city must be a place where groups of women and men are seeking and developing the highest things they know. Margaret Mead
- 23+ 0- 0
Our humility rest upon a series of learned behaviors, woven together into patterns that are infinitely fragile and never directly inherited. Margaret Mead
- 24+ 0- 0
Much of the ill-tempered railing against women that has characterized the popular writing of the last two years is a half-hearted attempt to find a way back to a more balanced relationship between our biological selves and the world we have built. So women are scolded both for being mothers and for not being mothers, for wanting to eat their cake and have it too, and for not wanting to eat their cake and have it too. Margaret Mead
- 25+ 0- 0
The negative cautions of science are never popular. If the experimentalist would not commit himself, the social philosopher, the preacher, and the pedagogue tried the harder to give a short-cut answer. Margaret Mead
- 26+ 0- 0
The prophet who fails to present a bearable alternative and yet preaches doom is part of the trap that he postulates. Not only does he picture us caught in a tremendous man-made or God-made trap from which there is no escape, but we must also listen to him day in, day out, describe how the trap is inexorably closing. To such prophecies the human race, as presently bred and educated and situated, is incapable of listening. So some dance and some immolate themselves as human torches; some take drugs and some artists spill their creativity in sets of randomly placed dots on a white ground. Margaret Mead
- 27+ 0- 0
Coming to terms with the rhythms of women's lives means coming to terms with life itself, accepting the imperatives of the body rather than the imperatives of an artificial, man-made, perhaps transcendentally beautiful civilization. Emphasis on the male work-rhythm is an emphasis on infinite possibilities; emphasis on the female rhythms is an emphasis on a defined pattern, on limitation. Margaret Mead
- 28+ 1- 2
Life in the twentieth century is like a parachute jump; you have to get it right the first time. Margaret Mead
- 29+ 0- 1
When human beings have been fascinated by the contemplation of their own hearts, the more intricate biological pattern of the female has become a model for the artist, the mystic, and the saint. When mankind turns instead to what can be done, altered, built, invented, in the outer world, all natural properties of men, animals, or metals become handicaps to be altered rather than clues to be followed. Margaret Mead

Me and the bf went here back in December and keep meaning to go back! We went to a few other wineries in Julian and this by far was the best! Tina and Tammie were so fun and cracking jokes that made the experience that much more fun. They knew the wine and took the time to explain them to...
This was a cute little place decorated in witch and cat décor. Cute! The wine was really good, and they had a large selection. The "bad witch" was our pourer, and we loved her! She was very funny and personable. We bought a couple bottles and would definitely go again when we are in the area.
Stopped by to do a quick wine tasting and we were glad we did. The staff is knowledgeable and beyond friendly. We are not huge wine drinkers and they were very nice in walking us through the different wines. There is no pressure to buy but we did buy some, as well as some wine glasses, the design is adorable!...
we stopped by after lunch and really enjoyed our time. there are great items and curios to look at while sampling the wines. The wine tasting was almost all red wine, which I don't like, so my friend enjoyed the wines and I got the cider tasting. The cider is quite good and the Cool Cat is good for just...
This was my second time visiting Witch Creek's tasting room in Julian. This visit I took my husband, and we tasted several different wines, The tasting room is humorously put together with several 'Wizard of Oz' type items scattered about the walls and ceiling. We have been wine tasting for many years, and seldom do we find an A plus...
Whenever I am in Julian, I stop at this Winery. Becky greets you like your an old friend-and if you have EVER been in there before, she remembers you! She sizes you up quickly, checks with what kind of wines you like and then steers you to where you need to be. The wines are not over priced and wonderful!
This is a tasting room located in central historic Julian. It begins with the whimsical 'the witch is in/out', signs and follows the witch and cat theme through with a terrific array of 'witchy' paraphernalia on the walls and hung from the ceiling- who can miss the broom? The young man pouring was knowledgable and entertaining- my daughter and I...
We happened upon the winery while stopping for lunch in Julian. We popped in and found a small tasting area and retail shop. We were warmly greeted by Dustin who after learning of our preference of reds adapted the tasting as such.
Dustin did an admirable job of describing each and much to our surprise we found several that we...
The lady that works there is very rude to people unless you are her drunk friend or a club member. The whole time she spent catering to her very drunk friend plying them with full glasses of wine and I watched them walk in and I watched them leave and they never paid a cent and they were given full...
It was only five dollars a person (without glass)-11 dollars with the glass for 5 or 6 tastings (I can't remember). The last one we got to pick which dessert wine we wanted to try. We enjoyed every single one we tried, which isn't always the cast in San Diego county. The quirky owners are friendly and fun to listen...

Saturday, 02.25.2017, 08:06 PM (GMT-5)
NEW YORK (IPS) — A Muslim legal advocacy group this week charged that federal agents routinely target American Muslim travelers — or simply those perceived to be Muslim — for "deeply intrusive, personal questions and searches about their politics, faith, finances, charitable giving and associations with lawful organizations, all without any evidence or even suspicion of wrongdoing."
In a new report, Muslim Advocates – a sister not-for-profit of the National Association of Muslim Lawyers (NAML) — charges that law-abiding Muslim, Arab and South Asian Americans returning home after overseas travel are experiencing "widespread, systematic and profound privacy intrusions by federal agents at the nation's borders and airports."
The report, entitled "Unreasonable Intrusions: Investigating the Politics, Faith & Finances of Americans Returning Home," says U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Customs & Border Protection (CBP) agents have questioned individuals about their political beliefs, religious practices, and charities they support. Agents have also sought to review and copy business cards, credit cards, and data on laptops, digital cameras and cell phones.
"These interrogations and searches are taking place without evidence or even suspicion that the travelers have engaged in wrongdoing," Muslim Advocates says.
"Far from serving legitimate aims, such profiling undermines security, wasting scarce government resources and generating mountains of false leads, as well as eroding trust between law enforcement authorities and the public," the report claims.
Other civil libertarians have also expressed concern about this issue. Typical is Michael Ratner, president of the Center for Constitutional Rights. He told IPS, "The question we need to ask is when will profiling because of race and ethnicity stop? Since 9/11 the harassment of Muslims and Muslim-Americans has been open and notorious."
He added, "Under the FBI guidelines issued in the waning days of the Bush administration, using racial and ethnic criteria as a basis for FBI investigation is permitted. One immediate action Obama must take — get rid of those guidelines. This administration needs to issue regulations absolutely prohibiting such discrimination and harassment. Enough is enough."
The Muslim Advocates report contains dozens of case histories of individuals who have been harassed by federal agents when returning home from overseas travel. These experiences have taken place at land crossings and international airports — from San Francisco to New York, Detroit to Houston.
The victims are U.S. citizens, including the "young, old, male, female, a firefighter, military veterans, students, lawyers, doctors, senior executives with major high tech companies, and academic researchers at Ivy League institutions."
"This assertion of power not only infringes fundamental constitutional rights and protections but undermines our nation's security," the report charges.
Muslim Advocates proposes a series of policy revisions to "restore constitutional protections eroded by the status quo border security apparatus and allow ample authority for the government to conduct legitimate activities to protect our nation's security." These include suggestions for the executive branch and Congress.
The organization recommends that President Barack Obama should direct the secretary of Homeland Security to review and reform CBP policies and practices that target Muslim, Arab and South Asian Americans for their First Amendment protected activities, beliefs and associations; and law enforcement and intelligence activities that impose disparate impacts on Muslim, Arab and South Asian American communities.
This agency review and related policies and data should be reported to relevant congressional committees and analyzed by the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in reports made publicly available to the extent feasible.
It also recommends that the president support the creation of a new position of assistant secretary for civil liberties and civil rights at DHS. The DHS's current officer in the secretary post is a presidentially appointed position without Senate confirmation.
DHS should also prohibit CBP from using travel patterns as a pretext for profiling according to race, religion, national origin, ethnicity, political beliefs, religious practices, associations with and contributions to lawful charitable organizations in interrogations.
The report's recommendations to Congress include enacting legislation to limit arbitrary scrutiny by CBP and ban on the use of race, ethnicity, national origin or religion in deciding upon the scope and substance of investigatory or other law enforcement activity.
At the Department of Justice, (DOJ) the attorney general should include religion among the bases upon which profiling is prohibited and clarify that race, ethnicity, national origin or religion should not be considered in deciding upon the scope and substance of investigatory or other law enforcement activity,
In a related development, more Muslim and civil liberties organizations have signed on to a statement by the American Muslim Taskforce on Civil Rights and Elections saying it is considering suspending outreach relations with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over recent incidents in which U.S. mosques and Muslim groups have been targeted. The taskforce (AMT) is a coalition of major national Muslim organizations.
The new signatories include the Coordinating Council of Muslim Organizations, which represents more than 50 Washington-area mosques, Muslim schools and Muslim organizations.
The FBI recently acknowledged that it had placed an informant inside a mosque to gather information about possible terror-related activities.
"Constructive relations with any law enforcement agency must be based on mutual respect and trust," said CCMO Chair Asma Hanif. "We hope that the FBI addresses these crucial issues so that trust can be restored and relations maintained."
To date, 34 organizations and many community activists and scholars have endorsed AMT's statement.
Meanwhile, a powerful Republican lawmaker, Rep. Peter King of New York, responded to a Department of Homeland Security report about domestic right-wing extremism by saying that DHS "has never put out a report talking about look out for mosques. Look out for Islamic terrorists in our country. Look out for the fact that very few Muslims come forward to cooperate with the police."
"The fact is, the Muslim community does not cooperate with law enforcement," said King, the ranking Republican on the House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Our beautiful home is located in the Eagle Pointe Subdivision located just off Hwy 192 about eight minutes from Disney. The home is furnished with 1 King Bed, 1 Queen, 4 twin beds and a sleeper sofa. The home is fully supplied with all needed linens, kitchen supplies and a game room. The game room has billiards, air hockey, and a table tennis conversion and darts.
The area is close enough to all attractions and activities yet nestled in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of tourists. Why stay in a crowded, loud hotel when you can have all the amenities of home and more. The home has a private screen enclosed pool with a privacy fence surrounding the back yard.
There are many different kinds of attractions located near the home ranging from a petting zoo to theme parks. Also there are Super WalMart, grocery stores and specialty shops located within a 5 minute drive.
Overall a great house to rent. When we first arrived the A/C wasn't working. I contacted the owner and management company and both responded quickly. The air was fixed first thing in the morning and the owner emailed me to confirm that it was done. Again, I suggest this house if you need a house to rent.
CLOSE TO DISNEY AND UNIVERSAL Parks ,walmart and restaurants
They home was clean and spacious. It was convenient and close to the parks and shopping centers. It was nice having a pool and entertainment room when it was raining to occupy our time. We enjoyed our stay and plan to stay in this house again in the future.
We enjoyed our stay at Eagle Pointe we had a close commute to Disney property and in quite neighborhood.
Overall we liked the house, the pool was pretty. The kitchen appliances were a bit old, the light in the fridge didn't work but we made due. The shower in the front bathroom made an awful screech when the hot water was used. The carpets looked like they would need replacing soon and the cleaning people must not like to vacuum in the corners, lol.
The little gripes we had were issues with the previous renters, they must have smoked in the master/king bedroom, it smelled awful in there. Also the trash can was already full when we got there and it had already been pick up day. So we put the trash out in bags next to the can the day of pick up, like the book said but the trash people only took what was in the trashcan. We put the can back next to the house and put the bags that were left behind in it. So the next people will have the same issue we had :(
There was construction on the main road by the entrance so you couldn't use the entrance, you had to drive passed it adding to travel time coming back from the parks. They should let renters know this, it doesn't look like it will be done anytime soon.
But the house was reasonable priced for the week so we didn't mind the inconvience too much.
My family of 4 stayed at the house for 6 days and it was the worst experience ever i was ready to get a hotel room after the second day if I had had the money to do so .The house was very spacious which was nice and the pool was very clean and perfect size those are the only good things about the house. The master bathroom tub was was dirty there were dirty finger prints in around the tub there were also not enough towels and rags for our stay. The second night there we had a busy day and was ready to come back to the house to rest but much to our surprise we get back to the house about midnight and the smoke alarms were going off in the house we could hear them from the driveway , mind you my 2 small children are asleep in the car so my fiance goes in to check it out and there's no sign of smoke so we are sitting in the car calling the emergency maintenance number that was left for us which says all calls will be handled ASAP however we called 3 times and left messages no response so about 12:30 we had to call the fire department number listed in the binder for our stay but the number was for the wrong district so they had to transfer us about 1 am the fire department shows up to tell us there's nothing they can do but the reason they were going off was bc the prong was messed up in one of the smoke detectors so they said they could take it down and remove the battery so it would turn off bc we couldnt reach the detector it was up to High and we had no ladder so finally about 1:30 am we get the kids in the house and put to bed which was very upsetting that was such a mess ....and the Maintenance guy did not even call back until 10 that Morning making excuses which was very unprofessional and so I contacted the owner telling him of the situation and I felt that he didn't deal with the situation he said he would talk to his guy that he pays to take care of all of that ..so we leave go on about our day come home to a note that just says "all batteries have been changed" which wasn't even the problem. I never heard anything back from the owner or anything to check on the rest of our stay , never got an apology or anything . I'm very unhappy with my stay and will not be booking this house in the future. We were hoping for a stress free vacation and what we got was the exact opposite.

Serves 4
1 cup milk
1/3 cup long grain rice
2 onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
5 ounces each ground beef,
pork, and lamb
1/3 cup finely diced bacon
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon oregano
2 egg yolks
Salt, freshly ground pepper
12 Chinese cabbage leaves
1 cup beef stock
Making the cabbage rolls: Trim the tick leaf ribs flat. Place a portion of meat filling in the center of each leaf and roll up, continuing to tuck the sides in toward the center so that none of the stuffing can leak.
Bring the milk to a boil with 1/2 cup water. Add the rice and cook for 20 minutes over a low heat. Sauté the onions and garlic, in 1-1/2 teaspoons of the butter, then cool.
Combine all the meat with the herbs, egg yolks, and the onion mixture and season with salt and pepper. Add the cooked rice. Blanch the cabbage leaves, rinse in cold water, and trim the leaf ribs flat. Spread out the leaves and season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among the leaves, and roll them up.
Grease an ovenproof dish with 1 teaspoon of the remaining butter, put the cabbage rolls in it , and add the stock, dot the remaining butter over the top and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F. for 35-40 minutes.

Could it be that such a beautiful computer would only be sold to schools? Yes, it could. But after much popular demand, it didn't remain so for long.
It's not the first time that Apple has had a computer that it sells only to schools. In 1998 it unveiled a Power Mac it called the All-In-One that looked like an early all-beige version of the original iMac. The eMac, which itself looks like a rejected proposal for the recently redesigned iMac, was intended to give school customers the power of an Apple machine with a G4 processor but at a lower cost than the Power Mac and revised iMac.
But after getting a look at the sleek casing, and the 17-inch display, some Apple customers just couldn't stand to be kept away from it. Phones rang off the hook at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, Calif., and in the showrooms of Apple dealers everywhere. Apple responded.
For those who think the new iMac looks too weird (hey, not everyone is into ultramodern industrial design), or that its 15-inch liquid crystal display screen is too small, or that the $1,400 starting price is just a tad high, the eMac offers a suitable alternative. First, it has a 17-inch cathode ray tube screen, which doesn't look as cool as an LCD screen, but LCDs are expensive.
Missing from the eMac, however, is the option to include a Superdrive, which can record data to both CDs and DVDs, and which is available on the iMac. The eMac has only a CD-RW drive.
One thing the eMac has that the iMac doesn't? An audio input jack. Once common on most Apple models, the capability to plug a microphone into the back of a Mac has been notably absent from some models for awhile, and those who want one need to buy an add-on peripheral.
Ultimately what will sell the eMac is the $1,100 starting price and its more conventional look.
Apple's other big news was an update to its QuickTime multimedia software. QuickTime 6 will support the up-and-coming MPEG-4 video technology, as well as a new audio technology called Advanced Audio Coding, or AAC, which may one day replace MP3 music files. Sound quality of AAC files is supposed to be better, while file sizes are smaller.
It's likely, given the new audio support, that QuickTime will in some way be integrated to work with Apple's iTunes music-playing software.
Another persistent rumor is that Apple will sell an iPod that works with
Perhaps there will be further news about this at the Macworld trade show in July. For those who love all things Macintosh, it's shaping up to be an interesting summer.

ALBANY, N.Y. –- Jerry Reese left the door open for the possibility of a Deon Grant reunion.
The veteran safety remains unsigned but recently said he expects to re-sign with the Giants sometime during camp.
"We keep the book open on everything and keep all our options open," Reese said. "You never know what (will) happen, but we have some young safeties we want to take a look at. Deon's still out there and he did a really nice job for us last year, so we'll keep those options open."
Grant was one of the most respected voices in the locker room last season and a vocal leader on defense. He was a pivotal part of the Giants' three-safety look used often over the past two seasons.
This season, the Giants have Tyler Sash, Stevie Brown, Will Hill, Chris Horton, S/CB Janzen Jackson and Jojo Nicolas behind Antrel Rolle and Kenny Phillips at safety.
If the Giants don't like what they see behind Rolle and Phillips, they could opt to bring Grant back.
Reese was also asked about the possibility of bringing back right tackle Kareem McKenzie if there is an injury on the line.
"We'll keep all our options," Reese said.
WILSON TALKS: David Wilson met with reporters for the first time in camp and the first-round pick was asked about how he has impressed many with his speed.
"That's crazy because a lot of great players have come through here," Wilson said. "Me having a so-called speed advantage over them, it makes me wonder how my career will turn out."
Wilson has displayed terrific quickness and the ability to stop, cut and change direction in a flash.
On Friday, he had to wait to get some carries as he was behind Ahmad Bradshaw, D.J. Ware, Andre Brown and Da'Rel Scott.
"It's good because I get to watch them and make sure I do it right," Wilson said. "I'm the new guy and that's the way it was everywhere I started."
THOMAS RETURNS: Terrell Thomas returned to practice after his back tightened up and kept him from finishing practice on Friday.
"I feel a lot better," said Thomas, who also distributed Thomas T-shirts to fans on Saturday at practice. "It's just a freak accident, something I haven't had since college. I pretty much just had a back spasm that locked up on me."

Calcium-channel blockers are a type of medicine used to treat high blood pressure.
Calcium-channel blocker overdose occurs when someone takes more than the normal or recommended amount of this medicine.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual overdose. DO NOT use it to treat or manage an actual overdose. If you or someone you are with overdoses, call your local emergency number (such as 911), or your local poison center can be reached directly by calling the national toll-free Poison Help hotline (1-800-222-1222) from anywhere in the United States.
The specific ingredients in each type of calcium-channel blocker vary. However, the main ingredient is called a calcium-channel antagonist. It helps decrease the heart's pumping strength, which relaxes your blood vessels.
Calcium-channel blockers are found in these medicines, with the brand names in parentheses:
Other medicines may also contain calcium-channel blockers.
Symptoms of a calcium-channel blocker overdose include:
Seek medical help right away. Do NOT make a person throw up unless poison control or a health care provider tells you to do so.
Have this information ready:
Your local poison center can be reached directly by calling the national toll-free Poison Help hotline (1-800-222-1222) from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.
The provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated.
The person may receive:
Taking too much of a calcium-channel blocker can be very dangerous. Death can occur, especially with verapamil. If the person's heart rate and blood pressure can be corrected, survival is likely. Survival depends on how much and what type of this medicine the person took and how quickly they receive medical treatment.

Intermittent claudication is a common symptom of both lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in middle-aged and elderly people. However, the prevalence and clinical characteristics of LSS with PAD (LSSPAD) have not been investigated in a multicenter study. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and clinical characteristics of LSS associated with PAD.
570 patients diagnosed with LSS using a clinical diagnostic support tool and MRI at 64 facilities were enrolled. We evaluated each patient's medical history, physical findings, ankle brachial index, Japanese Orthopaedic Association Back Pain Evaluation Questionnaire (JOABPEQ) score, and the Short Form 36 (SF-36) score. Statistical analyses were performed to compare LSSPAD patients and LSS patients without PAD using the t test, Mann–Whitney's U test, and multivariate recurrence analysis. p values of <0.05 were considered statistically significant.
The LSSPAD group comprised 38 patients (6.7 %); 20 (3.5 %) had pre-diagnosised PAD while 18 (3.2 %) had undetected PAD. The clinical characteristics of these patients were advanced age, diabetes, and a history of ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disorder. 570 patients enrolled, and 448 (78.6 %) of those patients were followed up at three months after enrollment. Pain in buttocks and legs improved less in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05). Improvements in the "general health" score in SF-36 were lower in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05).
Advanced age, diabetes, and a history of cerebrovascular disorder and ischemic heart disease were associated with LSSPAD. Because LSSPAD patients show less improvement in QOL than patients with LSS but without PAD do, clinicians should consider the coexistence of PAD in LSS patients.
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) presents with lower extremity symptoms [1, 2], including neurogenic intermittent claudication as a typical symptom [3]. On the other hand, vascular intermittent claudication is also a typical symptom of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) [4, 5]. Since there is overlap in the ages at which patients develop LSS and PAD, it is important to differentiate the claudication caused by these two different pathologies.
PAD refers to a circulatory disorder caused by stenosis or occlusion of the artery by arteriosclerosis or vasculitis. It encompasses conditions such as arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO), Buerger's disease, and acute arterial obstruction. Progression of PAD increases the risk of severe vascular events and even death [6–8]. Early diagnosis and treatment of PAD can improve the hemodynamics of the lower extremities and reduce the risk of fatal or nonfatal cardiovascular events [4, 5]. LSS patients with PAD have been reported [9]; so, when diagnosing LSS, it is important to bear in mind that concurrent PAD is possible. The prevalence of LSS associated with PAD remains unclear because there have been no large-scale epidemiological studies on this issue. One likely reason for this is that there are no established diagnostic criteria for LSS, based on an international consensus. The Japanese Society for Spine Surgery and Related Research, therefore, developed a diagnosis support tool for LSS (sensitivity of 92.8 %, specificity of 72.0 % [10]). Large-scale epidemiological studies of LSS can be executed using this tool.
The measurement of the ankle brachial index (ABI) is recommended for the diagnosis of PAD [5]. The ABI is the ratio of the arm systolic blood pressure (at the brachial artery) to the ankle systolic blood pressure (at the posterior tibial artery or dorsalis pedis artery) [11]. Highly sensitive and specific diagnosis of PAD is possible using the ABI, comparable to that obtained using angiography or Doppler examination [4, 5, 7, 8, 11–14]. Patients with a resting ABI of below 0.9 may have arterial stenosis that affects hemodynamics [4]. In recent years, instruments that automatically measure the ABI have been developed. Using such automatic ABI devices, reliable data can be easily and quickly obtained [6, 16, 17].
As society ages, it is thought that the number of patients with both PAD and LSS will increase. However, the prevalence of PAD in cases of LSS, and the clinical characteristics of such patients, remain unclear. Thus, the aims of the present study were to determine the prevalence of PAD in LSS patients, to clarify the clinical characteristics of patients with concurrent LSS and PAD, and to clarify the treatment course for these patients.
This study was approved by the ethics committees of the participating research institutions. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients.
This study was a prospective multicenter observational study, conducted under the guidance of the Japanese Society for Spine Surgery and Related Research. The research team consisted of LSSPAD project members. The survey was conducted in 64 hospitals nationwide, all of which had attending spinal surgeons. The recruitment period was one year from October 1, 2008 to September 30, 2009.
The survey subjects were LSS patients who visited and were examined at the participating hospitals during the survey period. The clinical diagnosis support tool [10] for LSS was used to identify patients with LSS (Table 1). Patients were diagnosed with LSS by a spine specialist if (a) they achieved a total score of ≥7 with the LSS diagnosis support tool, and (b) their neurological findings were consistent with spinal canal stenosis found via MRI at that particular lumbar spinal level. Patients with impaired consciousness, serious complications (heart failure, kidney failure, liver failure, respiratory failure), or psychiatric diseases or symptoms were excluded. Those who were pregnant, were breastfeeding, had myelopathy, had a history of lumbar spine surgery, or were attending for a second opinion were also excluded. To avoid bias among the hospitals, the number of patients enrolled at each hospital was limited to 10.
At the time of enrollment, the patients were interviewed individually to obtain their medical histories. They were asked about symptoms including the presence of intermittent claudication, exacerbation of symptoms when standing up, and improvement of symptoms when bending forward (lumbar flexion). The severity of symptoms was evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS: 0–100 mm) for lower back pain, buttock or lower extremity pain, and buttock or lower extremity numbness. In physical examinations, we recorded whether symptoms appeared on lumbar forward or backward flexion, whether the Achilles tendon reflex was diminished, and whether the patient had a positive straight leg raising test. Patients were also asked if they had any comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia and cerebrovascular disorders (stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, or transient cerebral ischemic attack), ischemic heart disease (myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, or coronary revascularization), arrhythmia, and carotid artery disease. Lifestyle questions included history of alcohol intake and smoking. Patients who drank routinely were considered to have a history of alcohol consumption. Patients who were current or past smokers were considered to have a history of smoking. Patients underwent hematological tests.
Quality of life (QOL) was evaluated using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association Back Pain Evaluation Questionnaire (JOABPEQ) [18] and Short Form 36 (SF-36) [19]. The JOABPEQ consists of five subscales and the SF-36 consists of eight subscales. With both tests, a higher score means better maintenance of QOL.
A follow-up survey was conducted three months after enrollment. This survey included symptoms, physical findings, the type of treatment for LSS (conservative or surgical therapies), and QOL (JOABPEQ and SF-36).
PAD was diagnosed by ankle brachial pressure index (ABI). Systolic blood pressure was measured with the patient in a supine position using either BP203RPE III (OMRON Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) or VaSera™ VS-1500E (Fukuda Denshi, Tokyo, Japan). ABI was calculated by dividing the systolic blood pressure of the ankle arteries by the systolic blood pressure of the brachial artery. At the time of enrollment, patients who had already been diagnosed with PAD or patients with ABI ≤0.9 in either leg were diagnosed with PAD [4, 5].
Patients with coexisting PAD and LSS were designated the "LSSPAD group," and those with LSS but no PAD were denoted the "LSS group." Using the LSS group as controls, an analysis was conducted to identify the characteristics of the LSSPAD group.
To evaluate the clinical characteristics at the time of enrollment, we analysed and compared (using the t test, χ2 test, Mann–Whitney U test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis) the two groups. p values of less than 0.05 were considered significant.
In the survey performed three months after enrollment, the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test were used to investigate differences in symptoms, physical examination findings, and types of treatment for LSS (conservative or surgical therapies). A multiple regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities, medical history, and the type of treatment for LSS was performed to evaluate the improvement in the symptoms, JOABPEQ, and SF-36. SPSS for Windows (version 16.0; SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) was used for statistical analysis. Data are presented as proportions and means (±SD).
A total of 570 LSS patients were enrolled (Fig. 1): 303 men and 267 women, with a mean age of 71 ± 8.0 years. Among the 570 LSS patients, 38 (6.7 %) had PAD (LSSPAD group). Of the 38 patients in the LSSPAD group, 20 (3.5 %) had already been diagnosed with PAD prior to enrollment in this study. The remaining 18 patients (3.2 %) had an ABI ≤0.9 and were diagnosed with PAD after enrollment in this study.
The LSSPAD group was significantly older than the LSS group: 75 ± 6.3 years versus 71 ± 8.0 years (p < 0.01) (Table 2). Men constituted 71.1 % of the LSSPAD group, a significantly higher percentage than in the LSS group (51.9 %) (p < 0.01). VAS scores for numbness in the buttocks or lower extremities were significantly smaller in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.01).
Of the 570 registered patients, 448 completed the follow-up survey at three months—a follow-up rate of 78.6 %. Of these 448 patients, 30 (6.7 %) belonged to the LSSPAD group. The mean age was 75 ± 6.6 years in the LSSPAD group and 70 ± 8.3 years in the LSS group; the mean age was significantly higher in the LSSPAD group (p < 0.01) (Table 2). No significant difference in the clinical or physical findings for the LSSPAD and LSS groups was observed.
With respect to comorbidities, there was a significantly higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.01) (Table 3). No significant differences were seen between the LSSPAD group and the LSS group in the prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, or hyperuricemia. Regarding the medical history, the LSSPAD group had significantly higher rates of cerebrovascular disorder, ischemic heart disease, and arrhythmia when compared with the LSS group. No significant differences were seen between the LSSPAD group and LSS group in terms of history of alcohol intake or smoking. The LSSPAD group had significantly elevated levels of creatinine compared with the LSS group (p < 0.05) (Table 3). No significant difference was seen between the two groups in any other items in the hematological tests.
From the above results, diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, ischemic heart disease, arrhythmia, high serum creatinine level, and mild numbness in the buttocks or lower extremities were extracted as characteristics of LSS patients with PAD. These extracted factors were then adjusted individually by age and sex (model 1). After this adjustment, factors characteristic to the LSSPAD group (p < 0.05) were diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, ischemic heart disease, and mild numbness in the buttocks or lower extremities. A multivariate logistic regression analysis with a forced entry method was conducted for these factors, including age and sex (model 2).
As a result of multivariate analysis, no sex differences were seen between two groups. The LSSPAD group had a significantly higher proportion of older people, a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus, and a more frequent history of cerebrovascular disorder or ischemic heart disease than the LSS group (p < 0.05) (Table 4). In addition, the average VAS of numbness in the buttocks or lower extremities was significantly smaller in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05).
No significant difference was observed between the LSSPAD group and the LSS group in the JOABPEQ and SF-36 scores at baseline (Table 5).
In the JOABPEQ and SF-36 scores at three months after enrollment, the scores for walking ability, social function, role physical, and general health (GH) were significantly lower in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05).
No significant difference was seen in the types of treatment implemented for LSS between the LSSPAD group (conservative 53.3 %, surgical 46.7 %) and the LSS group (conservative 48.1 %, surgical 51.9 %).
At three months after enrollment, all scores for symptoms, JOABPEQ, and SF-36 showed lower levels of improvement in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (Table 6). Based on the results of the multivariate logistic analysis, a multiple regression analysis was conducted, adjusting for age, sex, association of diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, history of ischemic heart disease, and the types of treatment for LSS. The improvement in the VAS for buttock or lower extremity pain was significantly lower in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05) (Table 6). No significant difference in the improvement in the JOABPEQ subscales between the LSSPAD group and the LSS group was observed. The SF-36 score showed a significantly lower level of improvement in GH in the LSSPAD group than in the LSS group (p < 0.05). No significant difference was seen in the other SF-36 subscales between the LSSPAD group and the LSS group.
This is the first nationwide multicenter survey on the prevalence of PAD in patients with LSS in Japan. We found that 6.7 % of the LSS patients had PAD. In other countries, the prevalence of PAD in the general adult population is reported to be 3–19 % [4, 5, 14, 20, 21]. It is also reported that the risk of PAD is significantly higher in older people and in men [12, 14, 22, 23]. In LSS patients, similar to the general population, the risk of concurrent PAD increases significantly with age. However, no sex differences were recognized. Factors other than older age and male sex that are reported to be related to PAD are smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, coronary artery disease, and cerebral artery disease [24–27]. We have shown that comorbidity of diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, and history of ischemic heart disease are characteristic of LSS patients with PAD. Thus, older age, association of diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, and history of ischemic heart disease may be useful for predicting PAD in LSS patients.
In the clinical setting, the pulse of the dorsalis pedis artery and posterior tibial artery is palpated to examine the peripheral circulation. Patients with diminished femoral artery or posterior tibial artery pulse are at high risk for PAD [28]. Although congenital defects in ankle arteries are rare (dorsalis pedis artery: 1.8 %, posterior tibial artery: 0.18 %) [28], it has been reported that the dorsalis pedis artery cannot be felt in 8.1 % and the posterior tibial artery cannot be felt in 2.9 % of all healthy people [11]. Consequently, the sensitivity of palpation of arterial pulses in the diagnosis of PAD is low [29, 30]. Thus, the absence of arterial pulses in the foot could lead to the overdiagnosis of PAD. The diagnosis of PAD by ABI is noninvasive and simple. Moreover, by setting the ABI cutoff to 0.9, it is possible to screen PAD with high sensitivity and specificity, comparable to that of angiography [15]. In the Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) II treatment guidelines for PAD, screening for PAD with the use of ABI is recommended for all patients with lower extremity symptoms on exertion, patients aged 50–69 with cardiovascular risk factors, and all patients aged ≥70, regardless of risk factors [5]. Many LSS patients with lower extremity symptoms, including intermittent claudication [2, 10, 26], are elderly and at risk for PAD. Therefore, when examining LSS patients, it is important to conduct screening by ABI to avoid overlooking coexisting PAD.
In this study, patients in the LSSPAD group had significantly milder buttock or lower extremity numbness than those without PAD. However, VAS is a subjective evaluation, and it is difficult to use to predict PAD.
No significant differences were seen in the JOABPEQ or SF-36 scores between the two groups at the time of enrollment. Thus, it is difficult to gauge the presence of complicating PAD based on patient QOL or subjective evaluations. In the follow-up survey performed 3 months after enrollment, following adjustment for age, sex, comorbidities, medical history, and whether the patient had undergone surgery, the level of improvement in buttock or lower extremity pain and the GH subscale in SF-36 was significantly lower in the LSSPAD group. The patient's subjective evaluation of their state of health is reflected in the GH score. If a patient has the impression that their state of health is gradually deteriorating, the score for GH declines [19]. In the LSSPAD group, buttock or lower extremity pain was resistant to treatment, so it is thought that patients' subjective evaluation of the treatment effect may be lower.
In this study, only about half of the LSS patients with PAD had already been diagnosed with PAD. This means that a large number of LSS patients with PAD had not undergone testing or treatment for PAD. Diagnosing coexisting PAD from claudication or patients' subjective evaluations is a difficult task, making ABI screening essential in the diagnosis of PAD.
The investigation of the comorbidities and medical histories of LSS patients with PAD in this study was cross-sectional. Therefore, one of this study's limitations is that the causal relationships between comorbidities, medical history, and coexisting PAD could not be elucidated. Another limitation was that the type of treatment for PAD was not investigated.
In the future, a longitudinal study with detailed classification of each patient's background will be needed.
Factors strongly associated with PAD in LSS patients are advanced age, association of diabetes mellitus, history of cerebrovascular disorder, and history of ischemic heart disease. In LSS patients with PAD, buttock or lower extremity pain is intractable, and improvement in QOL is difficult to achieve. When examining patients with LSS, it is necessary to keep PAD in mind.

"The Real Housewives of New York's" Jill Zarin stuck to her story regarding not getting any plastic surgery when she appeared on Tuesday's (April 19) episode of "The Wendy Williams Show."
Jill says she never tells a lie… and her tight new face is the result of frequent visits to celebrity dermatologist Pat Wexler and some well-placed injections called a "liquid facelift."
It also doesn't hurt to start loving your forehead again. Apparently, a high and tight ponytail reminiscent of Madonna's Blonde Ambition tour can work wonders, as well.
Are you taking Jill's word at face value?

TravelPod Member ReviewsRadisson Blu Hotel Bremen
This hotel (now called the Radisson Blu) is located within walking distance of 90% of what we wanted to see here in Bremen--the Marktplatz and the Schnoor are a few minutes walk down the streets; the Böttcherstraße is right behind the hotel. THe building is undergoing some extensive renovations at the moment; I'd like to come back when it's all done and see what they're going to do! Very attentive staff. Good food. But the location is what won it for me!

Lahore: Police claim 2 more encounter scalps
LAHORE: The police claimed on Tuesday to have shot dead two robbers in shootouts in different areas. The Mughalpura police killed a 'robber' who allegedly raped a woman during a house strike at Mujahidabad three and a half months ago while the Gulshan Iqbal police shot down a robber who had injured a retired colonel on resistance on Monday. Earlier, an alleged robber was killed by the Model Town CIA police at Old Kahna in the early hours of Monday. Civil Lines SP (Operations) Abdul Qadir Qamar told Dawn that officials at a picket set up by the Mughalpura investigation in-charge signalled two motorcyclists to stop in the early hours. He said the suspects instead opened fire and the police chased and retaliated.
The SP said the suspects apparently escaped but an emergency call alerted the police that a man was lying injured on ground at Mujahidabad. He said the police rushed to the spot, picked up the man with multiple bullet wounds and took him to hospital but he died on the way.
SP Qamar said the victim was identified as Shahzad, 27, who hailed from Faisalabad. He said Shahzad was the one who opened fire on the police and his accomplice managed to escape.
He said the suspects had come to threaten Muhammad Naseer at his house to withdraw the robbery–cum–rape case against them. He said Shahzad and Azam, who along with their three accomplices, had entered the house of Naseer on April 3 last, raped the complainant's daughter and daughter-in-law and fled with cash and valuables.
He said the police record also found that Shahzad was nominated in several cases of murder, dacoity and robbery in Faisalabad and his accomplice Azam was killed in a police encounter a couple of months ago.
Meanwhile, the police shifted the body for autopsy and registered a case under 324, 353, 186 of PPC and 13/20/65 Arms Ordinance on the complaint of Inspector Muhammad Azam Manhais.
The Gulshan Iqbal police said a young robber was killed in crossfire with a team shortly after he and his accomplice attempted to loot cash and valuables from a retired army officer and his family and wounded him on resistance in Iqbal Town's Kamran Block.
Iqbal Town SP (Operations) Imtiaz Sarwar said Col Farooq (retired) went to his relative's house along with his family for Iftaar when two robbers stopped them and started looting jewellery from women.
As Farooq challenged them, one of the suspects fired at him. The firing also alerted neighbours who gathered on the spot.
Quoting witnesses, the SP said one of the suspects fled on the bike while the other having two weapons started running. The SP said a street guard opened fire on the runaway suspect who returned fire. On being informed, some policemen on patrol duty reached the spot and killed the gangster in crossfire.
Sarwar said the suspect had not yet been identified while the injured victim was admitted to the Jinnah Hospital.
Meanwhile, an alleged robber who was killed in a police shootout in Khana police precinct on Monday has not been identified. A Jinnah Hospital morgue official said the body was still lying for postmortem examination.
