The mechanism by which free glucose is released from glucose-6-phosphate involves several different steps. Glucose-6-phosphate must first be transported from the cytosol where it is generated either through phosphorylation of free glucose or from gluconeogenesis, into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum, ER. Inside the ER the phosphate is removed through the action of ER localized glucose 6-phosphatase. The free glucose must then be transported back to the cytosol as well as the released inorganic phosphate, Pi. Defects in the process of glucose release from glucose-6-phosphate result in elevations in cytosolic glucose-6-phosphate which then leads to increases in incorporation into glycogen and subsequent excessive storage.
Type I glycogen storage disease (GSD) is an autosomal recessive disorder that was first described in 1929 by E. von Gierke as a "hepato-nephromegalia glycogenica". For this reason the disease is still more commonly referred to von Gierke disease. In 1952, G. Cori and C. Cori identified that the absence of glucose 6-phosphatase activity was the cause of von Gierke disease. This discovery was the first ever identification of an enzyme defect in a metabolic disorder. Subsequent to the identification of the pathway of glucose release from glucose-6-phosphate, additional patients with similar clinical manifestations to von Gierke disease were identified. However, these patients were not deficient in glucose-6-phosphatase. These latter patients were identified as having type Ib GSD. Type Ia GSD is caused by a defect in the ER localized glucose 6-phosphatase. Type Ib disease results from defects in the glucose-6-phosphate transporter 1. Type Ic GSD was identified in 1983 and found to be the result of defects in the microsomal pyrophosphate transporter. This form of type I GSD has only been found in few cases. As shown in the Figure above, there are 4 enzyme activities that function in the release of free glucose in the cell and as such there is the theoretical possibility that type Id GSD would be caused by defects in the microsomal glucose transporter (identified as GLUT in the Figure). However, no individuals have been reported to exist with a defect in this latter enzyme activity.
The metabolic consequences of the hepatic glucose-6-phosphate deficiency of von Gierke disease extend well beyond just the obvious hypoglycemia that results from the deficiency in liver being able to deliver free glucose to the blood. The inability to release the phosphate from glucose-6-phopsphate results in diversion into glycolysis and production of pyruvate as well as increased diversion onto the pentose phosphate pathway. The production of excess pyruvate, at levels above of the capacity of the TCA cycle to completely oxidize it, results in its reduction to lactate resulting in lactic acidemia. In addition, some of the pyruvate is transaminated to alanine leading to hyperalaninemia. Some of the pyruvate will be oxidized to acetyl-CoA which can't be fully oxidized in the TCA cycle and so the acetyl-CoA will end up in the cytosol where it will serve as a substrate for triglyceride and cholesterol synthesis resulting in hyperlipidemia. The oxidation of glucose-6-phophate via the pentose phosphate pathway leads to increased production of ribose-5-phosphate which then activates the de novo synthesis of the purine nucleotides. In excess of the need, these purine nucleotides will ultimately be catabolized to uric acid resulting in hyperuricemia and consequent symptoms of gout. The interrelationships of these metabolic pathways is diagrammed in the Figure below.
Interrelationships of metabolic pathway disruption in von Gierke disease: In the absence of glucose-6-phosphatase activity free glucose cannot be release from the liver contibuting to severe fasting hypoglycemia. In addition the increased glucose-6-phosphate levels lead to increased pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activity as well as increased glycolysis to pyruvate. The incresased levels of pyruvate lead to increased lactate produciton via lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alanine via alanine transaminase (ALT). In addition, the increased pyruvate is oxidized via the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHc) leading to increased production of acetyl-CoA which is, in turn, used for the synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol. The excess glycolysis also results in increased production of glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) from DHAP via the action of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1). Increased G3P and fatty acids leads to increased triglyceride synthesis which, in conjunction with the increased cholesterol, leads to hyperlipidemia as well as fatty infiltration in hepatocytes contributing to hepatomegaly and cirrhosis.
Humans express three glucose 6-phosphatase catalytic subunit genes identified as G6PC, G6PC2, and G6PC3. Mutations in the G6PC gene are the cause of type Ia GSD (classic von Gierke disease). The G6PC gene is located on chromosome 17q21 spanning 12.5 kb and is composed of 5 exons that generate two alternatively spliced mRNAs. Mutations in the G6PC gene account for approximately 80% of all type I GSD cases.
The glucose-6-phosphate transporter 1 protein is a member of the solute carrier family of membrane transporters. The gene that encodes this transporter is the solute carrier family 37, member 4 (SLC37A4) gene. Mutations in the SLC37A4 gene result in type Ib GSD (GSDIb). The SLC37A4 gene is located on chromosome 11q23.3 and is composed of 12 exons that generate five alternatively spliced mRNAs that encode three distinct isoforms of the protein. The mRNA found in the brain contains exon 7 whereas the one in the liver does not contain this exon. Mutations in the SLC37A4 gene account for approximately 20% of all type I GSD cases.
The ER inorganic phosphate transporter (type Ic GSD) gene maps to chromosome 11q23–q24.2 which is very near the location of the SLC37A4 (G6PT1) gene described above for type Ib GSD.
Analysis of mutations resulting in type I GSD have been most extensively studied in type Ia disease. The 130X mutation is the result of a 2-base pair (bp) insertion in exon 3 of the G6PC gene resulting in a translation stop codon at nucleotides 467–469 (identified as FS130TER). This mutation has, thus far, only been found in Hispanic patients. All Ashkenazi Jews with type Ia GSD have been shown to harbor a mutation in exon 2 resulting in the mutation of arginine 83 to a cysteine (R83C). One compound heterozygote patient has been identified harboring two mutations in G6PC where one was the R83C mutation and the second was arginine 295 mutated to a cysteine (R295C). Twelve additional mutations have been mapped to the G6PC gene: R83H, I341D, G188R, A124T, IVS1DS (mutation in the splice donor site of intron 1), W77R, D38V, IVS4AS (mutation in intron 4 resulting in an alternative splice site), Q347X (mutation resulting in a termination codon), V166G, G184E, E110K.
Patients with type I glycogen storage disease can present during the neonatal period with lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia. More commonly though, infants of 3–4 months of age will manifest with hepatomegaly and hypoglycemic seizures. The hallmark features of this disease are hypoglycemia, lactic acidosis, hyperuricemia, and hyperlipidemia. The severity of the hypoglycemia and lactic acidosis can be such that in the past affected individuals died in infancy. Infants often have a doll-like facial appearance due to excess adipose tissue in the cheeks. In addition, patients have thin extremities, a short stature, and protuberant abdomens (due to the severe hepatomegaly).
Long-term complications are usually only seen now in adults whose disease was poorly treated early on. The main problem is associated with liver function but multiple organ systems are also involved, in particular the intestines and kidneys. Growth will continue to be impaired and puberty is often delayed. Affected female patients will have polycystic ovaries but none of the other symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) such as hirsutism.
The common treatment for type I glycogen storage disease is to maintain normal blood glucose concentration. With normoglycemia will come reduced metabolic disruption and a reduced morbidity associated with the disease. To attain normoglycemia patients are usually treated in infancy with nocturnal nasogastric infusion of glucose. Total parenteral nutrition or the oral feeding of uncooked cornstarch can also achieve the desired results.
In the past the prognosis for type I glycogen storage disease patients was poor. However, with proper nutritional intervention growth will improve and the lactic acidosis, cholesterol and lipidosis will decrease.

The predicted peak night for the 2013 Lyrid meteor shower is before dawn on April 22. Will you see meteors on that night, the night until before dawn April 23? Maybe. Try watching from late night Monday (April 22) until dawn Tuesday (April 23). The main problem: there's lots of moonlight on this night. Usually, the hour before dawn is best, regardless of your location on the globe. The Lyrids are generally a modest shower, offering perhaps 10 to 20 meteors per hour in a dark, moonless sky. What, no meteors? No problem. Use your time outdoors to check out the constellation Lyra the Harp. The radiant point for tonight's Lyrid meteor shower is near the bright star Vega in the constellation Lyra. They rise in the northeast in late evening in April. EarthSky's top 10 tips for meteor-watchersThis image shows the constellation Lyra the Harp, radiant point for the Lyrid meteor shower. If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, Lyra rises over your north-northeastern horizon around 10 p.m. tonight. What is a radiant point? If you see a meteor tonight, you can trace its path backwards to find that it radiated from the constellation Lyra. Yet you don't have to know how to identify Lyra – or even know its direction in the sky – to see a meteor in this annual shower. Meteors often don't become visible until they are 30 degrees or so from their radiant point. In other words, the meteors will appear in any and all parts of the sky after Lyra ascends over the horizon in late evening.
It's fun to find a meteor shower's radiant point, though, and Lyra is easy to spot. The constellation Lyra is easy to see because it's small and compact. Many people see it as a little triangle set on top of an oblique parallelogram.

German Meatballs (Fleischkuechle)
Recipe by SplitPea
The German Meatball is not actually a ball - it looks more like a disk. It is one of my favorite childhood foods and I keep on making these for private dinners, big brunches, a party gift, picnicks,... you get the idea: easy to prepare, store, and take around, hot or cold, goes with almost anything. A taste of Germany - enjoy!
Top Review by MsWhatsit
These are unbelievably good, especially for meatballs, which are not usually my favorite dish. They're moist and flavorful, and very simple. I changed the recipe very slightly, by adding a little Tabasco and a little Worcestershire sauce. Will definitely be making these again.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 500 g minced beef (better even, half beef, half pork)
- 1 old rolls or 1 dry white bread
- milk
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 2 -3 eggs
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- other spices
Directions See How It's Made
- Start by soaking the dry bread with some lukewarm milk (takes around 20 min). When done, quench the milk out of the bread.
- Meanwhile, finely chop onions and sauté with some oil or butter in a pan until they are transparent. Shred the carrot and sauté with the onions until soft. Let cool.
- Add all ingredients into a bowl and mix thoroughly with your hands.
- Add spices to taste. Remember: add a little more salt than you think you should. The frying will take off some salt, so it prevents the meatballs from tasting boring.
- Now heat margarine or butter in a non-stick pan, form disks from the meat dough (approx 10 cm diameter, 2-3 cm high) and fry thoroughly from both sides.
- Serving suggestion: with mashed potatoes and baby carrots with peas.

Erectile Dysfunction and Diabetes
Erectile dysfunction is a troubling condition that affects many men, making it difficult to get an erection or sustain one long enough to engage in sexual intercourse. In some cases, men find it impossible to have an erection at all, a problem that is both frustrating and discouraging. When it comes to men who suffer from diabetes, they are even more likely to battle with erectile dysfunction. Diabetes involves a battle with blood sugar control and often wreaks havoc on the body, causing problems with nerve damage and circulation. A good erection needs excellent circulation to a man's reproductive organs. If diabetes is preventing an easy flow of blood, or other problems get in the way such as high blood pressure and heart disease, erectile dysfunction can be especially challenging.
What's the Solution for Men Who Deal with Erectile Dysfunction and Diabetes?
The first thing that a man needs to do when struggling with erectile dysfunction combined with diabetes is to seek expert, medical advice. This is a tough topic and many men do not want to open up with anyone about such an embarrassing problem. However, problems with erections are not going to go away by themselves. If left unattended, they are likely to only get worse. This is bound to put a strain on a man's love life and self-esteem, not to mention it is a sign of underlying health issues that need to be addressed. When it becomes obvious that erections are no longer happening the way they used to, it's time t open up and let a physician know what is going on.
What a Physician is Likely to Recommend for the Diabetic with Erectile Dysfunction
Getting diabetes under control is going to be at the top of the list. The doctor is going to suggest a treatment plan that will result in good management of blood sugar levels, taking care of the rest of the body as a result. Addressing any other issues, such as a heart condition or high blood pressure, is important as well. Don't be surprised if exercise and diet changes are recommended as well to bring body weight down and get the circulatory system working more effectively. Medications may be suggested as well to treat a variety of problems, including erectile dysfunction.
The Erectile Dysfunction Pump: Another Alternative
When all else has failed or a man with erectile dysfunction and diabetes seeks another option, an erectile dysfunction pump may be the answer. Also referred to as a vacuum pump for ED, an erectile dysfunction pump is a type of external pump that is actually attached to the end of the penis. The pump can run on batteries or be pumped by hand. Air is released from the cylinder, creating a vacuum pump for ED that enhances circulation in the penis by drawing blood to this part of the body. A lubricant should be used to enhance effects while a constriction band is moved to the lower end of the penis. At this point, the penis is erect and the pump is removed. The band can be left in place to maintain erection during intercourse and then removed. It's important to get a pump with a quick-release feature in the event that there are any problems.

2017 Challenge Bulletin Board
I learned about this challenge from twitter, of course.
It turned out that Jeremy Denton learned of the challenge from Mr. Collins.
After designing a template that would print on 11x17 cardstock (affiliate link) -- my go-to paper for making awesome classroom posters and displays!
I put up this bulletin board last year:
I've edited the files for 2017 instead of 2016. I also changed the font to my current obsession, Wellfleet!
For each integer between 1 and 100, inclusive, there is a space for students to write the solution. There is also a space to the right for students to write their name to show who found the solution.
ALL solutions must be verified by me before being added to the posters!
One thing I love about this challenge is it encourages students to learn about factorials which they haven't had much exposure to at all.
Last year, it was fun to watch students work through this challenge. We did not complete it last year, but it is not always possible to find solutions to each number. The number of solutions that are possible depends on the year!
I look forward to challenging this year's students. I'll update this post when I've got the new posters hung up in my room. But, I thought I would go ahead and post this to give y'all a head start to get ready for 2017!
Looking for another challenge? I highly recommend that you also check out the 5-4-3-2-1 challenge!
12 comments:
I've been following your blog for some time now, though I intend to become an English teacher. It was your suggestion that led me to read Designing Groupwork. My question, given the message of that book about status, is this: Does the slot for students to write their names and take credit for a solution invite students to perceive academic status differences among classmates?
Is there any acknowledgment of additional ways to create a number that's already listed?ReplyDelete
Was wondering the same thing as Connie. I'm doing this schoolwide and I'd like everyone who has a solution be acknowledged. Just can't figure out how to do it on the paper. There will clearly be some numbers with very few (or no) answers, and some that will have LOTS. Any ideas?ReplyDelete
Did this last year and had a great response so I made sure to have the 2017 challenge read to go. We started school yesterday and my students already have the first page filled in. I have students and one teacher, from last year come looking for it.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the reply, Sharon, but I'm still having trouble figuring out how to lay it out so multiple answers (and the authors) can be displayedReplyDeleteReplies
Sorry that got left off. I enter only the name of the first person to submit a correct answer but acknowledge other correct answers verbally in class, especially if they are interesting. Answers are submitted by pieces of paper on my desk, face down. At the end of the day, I flip the pile over and the first one is on top.Delete
Great idea!Delete

Purple Ginger II set to open in former Zi Fusion location
After a remodel and a name change, Purple Ginger II is ready to open.
Zi Fusion seemed to suffer from an identity crisis from the start. It was originally going to open last fall as Zi Cuisine -- but that sounded dangerously close to Z Cuisine, Patrick Dupay's popular French restaurant in Highland. So Zi Cuisine quickly changed its name to Zi Fusion, which Rhett Songer, then the chef, said better reflected the restaurant's concept.
Then in April, the restaurant closed after water pipes burst and damaged much of the wood floor in the bar area. At the time, Songer said Zi Fusion would shut down for two weeks for a remodel.
A major one, it turns out: Not only has the space been changed, but so has the personnel and the name. When the location at 7340 South Clinton Street in Englewood reopens on June 30, it will be Purple Ginger II.
But even before the pipes burst, owner Ricky Choi, who also owns the original Purple Ginger in Lakewood with his wife, Anna, wasn't pleased with the way the restaurant was being run. "We were not on the same page," he says of the former management team. "That's why I let them go."
So when the restaurant closed for repairs, Choi took the opportunity to make more grand-scale changes. He brought in Vijay Mehra, who used to be the GM at Imperial Chinese Restaurant and most recently owned his own restaurant in Longmont, to be the GM. Choi will be more involved in the kitchen and hired George Yu, who has worked at many restaurants in Denver and Kansas City, to be the head chef.
The menu will be very similar to that of Purple Ginger in Lakewood, which focuses on healthy, modern Asian cuisine. "The concept here is the old Chinese cuisine was very greasy food, very heavy food, and was too much heavy sauces," says Mehra. "We're making food in a Chinese way, but in a much lighter fashion. What we want people to come and see a modern Asian cuisine. We have Thai, we have some curries, we have Chinese cuisine, but with a different twist. It's not the same old mom-and-pop Chinese restaurant."
All the sauces are made by Ricky Choi, and the menu features a wide array of chicken, fish, beef, pork, rice and noodle dishes along with soups, salads and sushi, with an emphasis on fresh and healthy ingredients
Purple Ginger II will try to build on the solid foundation that the Chois have created at their Lakewood location. "A lot of people were saying, 'Why don't you come South?''' says Mehra. "So when the opportunity came along, they bought this place and now they're going to offer the same style of food and the same healthy food done in an Asian fashion."

Nelda was Holcomb's wife, Brom's mother and Eragon's paternal grandmother.
Nelda grew up in Kuasta, a remote city near the Sea, far south of Carvahall. Kuasta was so isolated by the Spine that it became a peculiar place, full of strange customs and superstitions, so Nelda probably was very superstitious, along with her family.
When she became of age she married Holcomb. Her husband and his family were illuminators and were probably wealthy. When their son was born, they named him Brom.
When Brom was ten years old, he was presented to the eggs that the dragons had donated to the Dragon Riders. A dark blue dragon egg hatched for him and Brom named the female dragon Saphira.
Nelda probably was very sad when her son left home for Ilirea (to become a Dragon Rider) and it is unknown if she ever saw him again.

Landmark lawsuit against the FDA
As executive director of the Alliance for Bio-Integrity, Steven Druker is
the co-ordinating attorney in a landmark lawsuit against the FDA calling for
the withdrawal of all genetically engineered foods in the USA until they
have gone through adequate safety tests, and the subsequent labelling of all
GE foods. The lawsuit has been filed by an unprecedented coalition of public
interest organisations, eminent life scientists, and seventeen mainstream
religious leaders. The International Center for Technology Assessment, which
is supporting the lawsuit, says the quality and breadth of the 26 plaintiffs
is without precedent in their long experience of such cases of litigation.
The plaintiffs are using official US government papers to show how the FDA
claimed GMOs were safe in the face of broad disagreement from its own
experts. The FDA was required to provide over 40,000 pages of internal
documents during the lawsuit. For example, when the FDA approved the "flavr
savr" tomato, which has also been sold in British supermarkets, it did so
ignoring statements from its own scientists that tests involving feeding the
tomato to rats led to a pattern of stomach lesions that raised a safety
issue and therefore failed to confirm that it was safe for human
consumption. Safety testing of subsequent GMOs has been even less stringent
and in many cases non-existent.
"Every genetically engineered food in the US is on the market illegally and
should be recalled immediately for rigorous safety testing," Mr Druker says.
"The FDA has deliberately unleashed a host of potentially harmful foods onto
American dinner tables, in blatant violation of US law, in order to promote
the interests of the biotech industry. Based on systematic
misrepresentation, the US set improper standards for the release of GMOs.
Britain and many other countries have largely followed the US, without
knowledge of the facts."
Warning to British Government
Mr Druker is in the UK to present his case to the Government and to
agricultural leaders. At the end of last week he gave a special presentation
to MPs at the House of Commons, at the invitation of Alan Simpson, MP, and
also had a private meeting with Michael Meacher, Minister of State for the
He was joined for the presentations by Professor Terje Traavik, scientific
advisor to the Norwegian government and one of the world´s leading experts
in viruses and horizontal gene transfer. Prof. Traavik warned the British
Government that the recombinant DNA technologies used to develop all of the
GMOs on the market today are so imprecise and unpredictable that they do not
even deserve to be called a technology.
He said that recent research indicates that artificial genetic material
released into the environment through agricultural, medical and industrial
applications can be incorporated into the genetic material of the cells of
all species, including our own. This process, called horizontal gene
transfer, is already known to create new viruses and bacteria that cause
diseases and to lead to harmful mutations, cancers, and acute toxic shock
and autoimmune responses.

Druker´s Anti-Biotech Themes
Druker argues the following points:
1. Genetic engineering is inherently riskier than traditional breeding.
2. Transplanted genes act independently of the host organism´s intricate control system.
3. Foreign genes enter the host DNA haphazardly and disrupt the region into which they enter.
4. There is mounting evidence of genetically engineered (GE) plants with substantial and unexpected alterations in chemical composition.
5. There have been suspicious changes in laboratory animals that consume GE foods.
6. GE foods contain unique hazards.
7. The government has allowed GE foods to be marketed without testing.
8. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) falsely claims expert consensus regarding the safety of GE foods.
9. A large portion of human foodborne illness develops over a long time through repeated doses of harmful substances.

ANKARA – Last week, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan intensified his government's response to the corruption investigations that have been roiling the country since December, restructuring the leadership of the judiciary and police. But it would be a mistake to view this as a fight between the executive and the judiciary, or as an attempt to cover up charges that have led to the resignation of three ministers. What is at issue is the law-enforcement authorities' independence and impartiality. Indeed, amid charges of fabricated evidence, Erdoğan now says that he is not opposed to retrials for senior military officers convicted of plotting to overthrow his government.
The recent developments reflect the widening rift between Erdoğan's government and the Gülen movement, led by Fethullah Gülen, a self-exiled Islamic preacher currently residing near Philadelphia. The Gülen movement was an important backer of the governing Justice and Development Party (AKP) and its efforts to establish civilian control over the military during the AKP's first two terms in office. Now, however, the movement appears to have been plotting a coup of its own.
Many members of the judiciary and the police force associated with the wave of corruption charges brought against government officials, businessmen, and politicians' family members are connected with the Gülen movement. What started out as an investigation into alleged graft soon became an opposition-supported smear campaign.
Turkey's current struggles raise important questions about the appropriate relationship between bureaucrats and elected officials in a pluralist democracy. Answering them will require a debate that transcends issues like the separation of powers and judicial independence and elucidates the appropriate relationship between politics and religion. For that, understanding the historical context of the current crisis is crucial.

Last time on TLAT The world of dreams blurred with reality. Our three young heroes were able to conquer their fears with the help of Smoke, the spirit spawn. Smoke now is searching for Gatton, and the children must deal with the fortress that is The Lost Air Temple.
Cori woke up in a room. He looked around for his bed, but it was gone. However he was beside his friends. He gave a yawn and looked at the dark sky. How long had they been out? The monk child looked at his friends; they were still asleep. Cori gave them a good shake. The brother and sister both woke up slowly and peacefully.
"Five more minutes, Grandma," Baizken said as he stretched his arms wide.
"Guys, I had the strangest dream-" Cori was quickly interrupted.
"That was to real to be a dream, trust me," Finosa was the most alert. "I have a feeling that this is about to get a whole lot more serious."
"So what do we do?" Baizken was rubbing the dust from his eyes. It was indeed a strange room they were in. He could see a lot of detail on the walls. It was some kind of mural, but it was dark and menacing.
"We need to get the heck out of here," Finosa responded as she got to her feet.
Baizken was still focused on the wall, "What is that?" he said to Cori, pointing at the ancient images.
"Those are the oldest images that temples have. They were created alongside the temple. This a little different than the one at the Northern Temple though. There are people and they are all surrounding a bison riding a lion turtle. Wait, that's a bison with a guy's head!"
"Could we save the sight seeing for another time?" Finosa joked.
Suddenly, there was a loud crash. A door was shut. They all ran to the door, but it was locked. They all started to wail away on it, yet no blast or punch could to anything.
"Baizken, give me your sword. I can pick the lock, maybe," Finosa gestured her hand for him to give him the sword.
"I lost it," Baizken turned away.
"What, well I guess we've got to figure another way out. Cori can you airbend this door down."
"Well, not exactly. It is built so only a master airbender can open it, by using the final technique."
"So we are stuck?" Baizken asked.
"Cori check the window. Can we get out that way?" Finosa was quick to take charge, being the oldest. Cori ran over to the window. He had to squint a little because of how dark it was. They were a couple levels up.
"Not unless we like breaking every bone in our body, wait a second," Cori reached behind his back. "Never mind, they took my staff."
"This isn't good," Baizken looked at the door. What or if anything would come out of the other side he could only guess.
The monk with the black arrow rushed down the hallway. He was airdashing with such speed, that he knocked a couple people over.
"Get out of the way," he yelled at the bystanders. He had a mission and he had to fulfill. Wong was quite displeased.
"Father would not blame it on me, would he?"
"No, no he wasn't going to know," Wong told himself. Besides it was not his fault the dream powder did not work. Maybe his father had destroyed the wrong spirit or maybe some intervention happened. Still, it provoked a lot of thoughts in Wong.
"Why do you follow him?"
"He is my father, and he has the world's best interest at heart."
"Do you believe that?"
"Mother did."
"Look where that got her."
"You have no idea what you are talking about."
"I do; I am you," the voice was very snappy about this.
"So, besides the Black Lotus are on our side," Wong's tone was equally frustrated.
"Look where that got the Water Tribe."
"You are talking to yourself."
"This is odd..." Wong thought something fishy was going on.
"We are going to be the new world order," Wong said proudly.
"No, you aren't leave this path. Do not follow the same one that your father took. It is not to late for you."
"What was that about you being me?" Wong was very confused.
"The equinox approaches. Remember this Wong, those who bend death itself shall surely die," the voice was eery like a ghost. With a loud pop, the voice that Wong thought was his conscious was gone.
"Well that was freaky," Wong said to himself. Probably a spirit that hated his father. Honestly nothing would have surprise Wong at this point. It did make him think a little harder though.
He continued to race out the hallway; he had made outside in the cool of night. He entered the second tower. Wong was almost there. It was time he dealt with these so-called "prodigies".
Father Geno did not normally summon people to his chamber. Most of the time it was someone of importance. Not a child. So Sid felt as if tonight was an unfortunate circumstance. He walked through the door post with his eyes on his shoes.
"I have summoned you for a reason, young one," Father Geno had the tone of authority when he spoke. His superiority seemed to just roll off his tongue like it was his job, and in a way it was.
"Father Geno, Chief of Airbenders, why have you summoned?" Sid was on his knees, bowing, as he said it.
"I have a mission for you, Sid."
"I am humble to accept this mission directly from you, but doesn't Wong or Skybender Elder normally deal with this, sir?" Sid danced on a thin line.
"Wong needs not to know of this mission, and the elders, well let's just say they do not need to know all of this," Father Geno was not as stern as he usually would be.
"Okay, Father Geno: The Deathbender."
That was Geno's favorite title, "You shall serve me well child. The Avatar is not moving as quickly as I would have liked. Some people need a little push."
"Or a shove," Sid said proudly.
"Yes, I need you to do something to trigger a response from the Avatar. If at all possible try to get him to follow you alone. I trust you will not let me down."
"No, Father Geno. I have a question though, am I aloud to use lethal force?"
"I appreciate ferocity, especially at such a young age," Father Geno was impressed with this child. Maybe even more proud than he had been with Wong when he was that age. The master airbender still was distraught over one part of Wong's training, but he realized the child had been speaking to him.
"I said 'yes or no?'" Sid sounded like the most patient person ever in front of Father Geno.
"As long as your hand does not lay waste to the Avatar, I suppose it may be a necessary push."
"Or a shove," Sid said. You could tell he enjoyed to play on words.
"Yes, it is time we shake this creature out of its hiding. May your hunt be fruitful."
With that Sid left the room. Father Geno seemed to just stare off into space. This was his destiny. He was the one to end the Avatar, and usher in a new age. His moment was coming, and he was not going to let it pass. The Avatar was going to go down in flames and was going to enjoy every single second. The world needed a new savior and he was about to come in the form of the greatest weapon. A child is the key.
Smoke was a little confused on how reentering the physical world was going to work. He had never brought himself back there. It was still going to be a fun trip, yet he knew he had to hurry. He had to tell Gatton something very important.
"Well here goes nothing," Smoke said with tired eyes. He made a knob appear in the air. It shine like a ruby and it was hot to the touch. He twisted it and he was off. Like all the other travels he had done in the Spirit World, this was not pleasant. His body felt like it was heated up to an insane temperature, while breaking through millions of glass walls. He could not see, only feel the intense heat and waves shards bouncing of his body. After a minute of those "wonderful" sensations, he was back in the real world.
"Where am I?" Smoke asked to himself.
"Why are you in my throne room?" questioned another voice. It was Fire Lord Pytharus. Smoke must have warped back to where he was when he entered the Spirit World. Pytharus was pretty confused at the sight of a man wearing rich, dark robes in his throne room.
"Wait, are you the spirit spawn?" Pytharus asked.
"Yes and I'm trying to find the Avatar."
The Fire Lord pointed north, "He should be over in that direction."
"Thank you," Smoke said. It was exactly the information he needed, but it was good enough. He started running as fast as he could. You could describe it, as if he was bouncing shadow to shadow. Smoke was moving north-east, he figured eventually he would run into the temple, or the end of the world (at this time people believed the world was flat). He had no time to lose.
The Eastern Temple was in an uproar that night, and Gatton was not going to get the rest he needed. All the Air Nomads had come to different conclusions, and none of them were favorable of the Avatar.
"We would have been better off if we would had listened to Halois," one would say.
"We have lost the future," would say another.
No matter how hard Gatton would try to calm the crowd down, it did not work. They were angry. Gatton took comfort in the fact that Air Nomads were the peaceful, nonviolent type.
Kolp's words kind of summed up what a lot of people had on their minds, "I was almost with you Avatar. I did not want to thinks badly of our brothers in the center of the world. However, my pupil is gone and my temple is running low on students. We are losing our people to these THIEVES," he was very upset. Kolp had a good reason to be. He had trusted the Central Temple, the Black Lotus, and even Wong. He had finally came to the realization that they were liars, and it seemed to hit him the hardest. He was now very afraid.
"Did we make a mistake?" Gatton tried to respond as best as he could in his tired state, "Maybe, but we did what we thought was best."
"We did what you thought was best, Avatar," this voice was that of a lady from the Western Temple. Gatton looked in the crowd for the leader of the White Lotus, but Halois had sneaked away to bed after seeing the growing mob. Gatton was certainly having trouble addressing the crowd. Suddenly a familiar voice rose out of the crowd.
"We followed the Avatar, because he is wise. He made an honest mistake; we should not dwell on that," it was Senzin who said these words, and as he said them, he stood next to Gatton. "We need not to fight amongst ourselves. Tomorrow, after we rest, we will make our decision."
Gatton was very thankful that his rival had stood beside him today. The crowd was slow to disband, but it did.
Gatton wanted a hand shake as he said, "Thank you."
"Do not forget what I did for you, Avatar," Senzin said slowly. He followed it up with a bow.
"You will never change, will you?" Gatton chuckled.
"Never," said a stressed Senzin. Gatton was very thankful that they were on the same side this night. He dare not thing of how hard it would have been if the aged monk was part of the peaceful, yet frustrated mob.
Osla was alone at night in a forest. The Air Nomad girl was completely hopeless. Her family and friends had been captured and she had failed them. She had made a deal that failed. Worst of all her mind had been slowly taken over by the enemy. In the end, Osla had helped the enemy win. This was the end. No hope just darkness. The sky had no stars, just a moon that loomed over her head. She sat in a tree, scared of any wildlife. Osla could still see the temple off in the distance. Those ominous towers seemed to be mystic. Her mind wondered how this had all gone wrong, once a peaceful bunch of lives, now in ruins. Everything seemed pointless now, meaningless. All of the things she'd done, good and bad, in vain. She could hear the howling of animals. Probably fierce creatures that would like to have a snack. The circle of life. Life and death. Death and a deathbender. The Deathbender and the future.
"So this is it?" she asked herself.
Now all she could do was cry. Her emotions no longer held inside. The world was drowned out by her tears. She stopped after a couple minutes of sobbing.
"What am I going to do about this?"
She paused again. The Central Air Temple seemed like a fortress. She did not dare think of going back. Wong had so much power. What could she do? Osla dusted herself off and stood on the branch.
"I'm not going down like this. They can take my mind, but not my spirit," she was only talking to the woods, but it felt like she was talking to the world. "I am not afraid."
Now what was she going to do?
Smoke finally saw three towers in the distance. They seemed to look ancient and old. He immediately knew this must be the place. It was only a couple hours before midnight. Smoke warped into a shadow that was just outside a lamp post. He had finally made it. No one was around, so he guessed they were all in bed. He started randomly opening doors that he guessed were bedrooms. One contained a snoring old man in a robe. Smoke quickly shut the door quietly.
"This may take a while," he whispered to himself.
Smoke opened another door. This one contained a very pregnant woman, who let out a screech. Smoke put his hands up his hands and motioned for her to quiet down.
"I am Smoke," he whispered quietly.
"I am Lilia. Leave now before I notify the authorities," her tired voice was not going to take no for an answer. Wong left again he went to a room near the top. He knocked this time. There was a familiar voice that took Smoke back.
"Who are you?" Gatton asked. He wore a red night cap. His eyes were still closed when he opened the door.
"It is me Gatton, Smoke." Smoke's voice sounded a little to excited for this time of night.
"So you made it back okay. I am so glad," Gatton was happy to see an old ally back.
"Yes, but we have much to talk about. There is a dark threat that looms over the world," Wong paused to look at Gatton's wise but discouraged face. "I imagine by now you have guessed what I am talking about."
"Yes, please come inside."
They talked for a long time on this subject. Gatton explained everything that had happened to him his missing children, the angry mob, and even his fear of a darkness that would soon fall upon the world. Something about the smile that the child of a spirit had on his face was off-putting.
"Why are you smiling?" Gatton asked. He was almost a little distrusting.
Smoke was happy to tell the Avatar his side of the story, "Avatar, I can honestly say your children are safe and well last time I saw them in the Spirit World."
Smoke talked of his journey in the Spirit World, of his mother, and the powers he had learned. The Avatar seemed cautiously impressed.
"My mission is to help you achieve the end goal."
Gatton seemed please to hear that Smoke had a plan, "Which is?"
"To defeat the Central Air Temple, and stop the ferocity that goes on there."
"The future can not be changed, Smoke," the Avatar said frustratedly, "We can't change destiny."
"That is where you are wrong Gatton. The future has not happened yet; you can change the world's fate."
"How so?" Gatton was surprised by Smoke's optimism.
"You are the Avatar. It is your world to save or allow to be destroyed."
"What did the Spirit of Shadows say to do? Can we trust it?" Gatton seemed realistic when he said it.
"I do not know, honestly, but if you are going to do something, we'd best do it now."
"You are right. I must save my grandchildren. Let us go tell the others."
They were quick to make it to the bottom floor. They were immediately greeted by a White Lotus guard, who was on duty.
"Hello Avatar, out for a stroll?"
"Not exactly. Could you direct me to Senzin or Halois's chamber?" Gatton seemed in a hurry, so the White Lotus guard panicked.
"Well uh, um, I... you see..."
Smoke face-palmed, "What is it?"
"Senzin is gone. He left on his bison and I have no clue where he could have gone."
"I have a feeling a know where he is," Smoke said as he looked up in to the sky.
"For his sake, I hope we are wrong," Gatton was worried about his old rival.
The children stood at the door. They were waiting for the inevitable. They were alert, standing a couple of feet away. Finosa was in front of the two boys, in a highly combative stance. Cori stood kind of off to the side. The way he stood was awkward, as if he had not seen many fights. Baizken hid behind both of them. Without his sword, he was hardly useful. After many minutes of silence sweat began to roll down Cori's face.
"Maybe they aren't coming?" he said nervously.
"I doubt that," Finosa whispered. She had heard footsteps. There was a large blast of air, and they heard gears turning. They all slowly backed away.
"Crud," was the word Baizken said that pretty much summed up all their thoughts. Long flowing black robes. They were dark, almost ancient. He had a Black Lotus tile button that seemed to be made of some kind of jewel. His eyes were pierced and started at them with hate. A black arrow was on his forehead. Its darkness seemed to echo Wong's personality. The person before them was a master airbender and he was ready to destroy them with absolute prejudice.
"It would have been better if I had brainwashed you all into thinking you were all hog-monkeys. I guess now we do it my way," Wong had a different look on his face. It was different than the one he had when he fought Baizken. The Air Nomad felt like he wasn't in control, and he hated it.
Wong started to walk towards them, "Stay back!" Finosa yelled. Flames, of a rich purple appeared in her hand. Wong kept walking toward her.
"You are a silly child," he laughed at her.
That did not sit well with Finosa. She punched forward. It was a very rigid fire jab, but it was accurate enough. Wong anticipated her move and merely batted it off to the side like it was nothing. He laughed again. He had found them and he was the hunter.
A lone Air Nomad stood on a hill. The nomad was tired of the games that the temple had played, the things it had taken. That was over now. It was time to stand up against the looming threat. It was time to get them back. The children needed to come home.

Louisiana voters send members of Congress to Washington to manage the federal budget, but how do the representatives do in managing their own office budgets?
Members are given an average $1.4 million a year for their individual offices. Recent House reports contain figures on spending for the first three months of the year.
A review of the disbursement records shows Rep. Steve Scalise, R-Jefferson, was the biggest spender, doling out $311,377 for the three-month period. Rep. Charles Boustany, R-Lafayette, dished out $294,000, followed by Rep. Bill Cassidy, R-Baton Rouge, who spent $272,816.
Rep. Rodney Alexander, R-Quitman, spent $262,870 while Rep. John Fleming, R-Minden, came in at $238,627.
The delegation's two freshmen, Rep. Jeff Landry, R-New Iberia, and Rep. Cedric Richmond, D-New Orleans, were the most thrifty with Richmond spending $233,087 and Landry coming in lowest at $205,457.
Part of their low numbers could be attributed to getting their new offices up and running.
The largest expense for all of the offices was staff pay. And the highest payment went to chiefs of staff.
Jeff Dobrozsi, of Boustany's staff, was paid the most at $40,603, which calculates to $162,412 a year, only $12,000 less than Boustany himself. Dobrozsi's salary is commensurate with his Washington experience and years of service with the office, Boustany said.
In Scalise's office, chief of staff Lynnel Ruckert received $37,966 for the quarter, equal to $151,864 for the year. Former Fleming chief of state, James Hennigan, received $36,666, which would be $146,664 for the year.
Travel also was separated in the report. Most of those costs were for flights to and from the districts. Alexander had a $20,000 payment from unused taxpayer funds last year for an SUV that is also used by his district staff. The report showed Alexander's office also pays $160 a month as part of a two-year lease.
Fleming and his district staff opted for using Fleming's personal SUV and wracked up about $1,900 in mileage bills at 49 cents a mile for the months of January and February.
The reports can be viewed at http://disbursements.house.gov. Senate spending records were unavailable, according to the Senate records office.
Vitter obstructs
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., is blocking the nomination of a Department of Interior assistant secretary until the agency extends hundreds of Gulf of Mexico drilling leases that are set to expire this year.
Vitter pointed to 300 leases that are due to expire.
"If these leases are allowed to expire, they will revert back to the federal government, killing jobs and cutting off potential revenue from exploration and production," Vitter said in a statement.
Rebecca Wodder has been nominated as assistant secretary for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. In May, President Barack Obama said his administration is extending Gulf drilling leases impacted by a temporary moratorium last year.
Vitter routinely blocks administration nominations. Earlier in the year, he held up the nomination of an U.S. Department of Interior selection, Don Ashe, until 15 deepwater exploration well permits were issued by the administration.
Vitter also blocked a $20,000 pay increase to U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar until the department issued permits equal to the pace previous to the Deepwater Horizon disaster, which has yet to occur.
Landry is in the chamber
Landry has joined a coalition of conservative U.S. House members who successfully convinced leadership to keep the chamber open to block any Obama administration recess appointments.
President Barack Obama is able to make the selections if the chambers are out.
The maneuver relies on the House staying in what are called "pro forma sessions," meaning the chamber must meet every three days. It only takes one member to gavel in the U.S. House.
The move forces the U.S. Senate, who votes on all nominations, to stay in too.
Landry will travel to Washington to preside over the chamber Friday.

Executive Director's Letter:
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and 2017 is filled with all things wonderful!
The 2017 Winter Meeting is just around the corner. You can register online by visiting our website, www.arkvetmed.org, or through the packet you should have received in the mail. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the ArVMA office at 501-868-3036. Dr. Karen Sherman has planned a great meeting and we are looking forward to it.
Dr. Archie Ryan has been working the on the student/new graduate mentorship program with Paul Vitale. We are all very excited about this program. It is going to bring a whole new feel to the students and new graduates. They will know that as an association, we are here for them and will have resources to help them with whatever needs that may arise. If you know a new graduate, let me know. The new graduate position on the board changes yearly and it is a great experience. The position requires the graduate to travel to Chicago in January where they get the experience of interacting with other new graduates from other states, and also gives them a chance to see how the American VMA works. It is a wonderful opportunity and is completely funded. Also, be on the lookout for the Power of 10 program. There will be more details to follow soon about this exciting program.
I look forward to seeing you in Hot Springs on February 10-12, 2017! In the meantime, if you have any questions about the meeting or your dues, please let me know.

J'adore la texture légère de ce produit. Il hydrate parfaitement ma peau et la rend douce. Je l'utilise chaque matin depuis près d'un mois et j'ai remarqué une amélioration considérable de ma peau.
When my mom was visiting I showed her the free sample of Olay I received. She asked me what I thought, as she is already an Olay (regenerist) user. I told her that I really liked the pump bottle (one pump is all you need), and how silky it felt on my face, but I definitely didn't look 10 years younger! We both agreed that if the product were on sale, we would give it another try.
I had severe acne as a teenager and now that I'm in my 30's I have an occasional breakout. I would always read in the beauty magazines that you should apply a moisturizer on your face but I was reluctant because of my acne-prone skin. I'm not sure why I decided to give Olay Total Effects a try but I am so glad I did. I have been using it every day for over a year now. It does not make my skin breakout at all (a big plus in my book). It makes my skin very smooth and gives me that "dewy" look. It also helps my foundation look more natural looking because the moisturizer is so hydrating. I also like the fact that it protects my skin from the sun.
I would definately recommend this product to anyone looking for a moisturizer. Despite it's high price (compared to other brands) it's definately worth it.
I love this product. You only need the smallest amount to do a great job. Sp it will last a while. So works out to be a great value for the price. It does work great to make you feel and look younger.
I'm using it when I want my skin look the most natural possible. It is Good. I don't feel to have a mask and that's amazing. I don't get any bad reactions either
I love when I use Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Anti-Aging Daily Moisturizer it feels light and non greasy on my skin. the winter harshness and having heaters on dries my skin out really bad but Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Anti-Aging Daily Moisturizer brought my skin back to life
I use the moisturizer with sunscreen and I love it. It's a little pricey, but goes on sale at Shoppers Drug Mart all the time. Now that I'm 30 I'm more conscious of the fact that I need to wear sunscreen daily and moisturize and it's pretty lightweight.
As a early twenties woman with slight forehead wrinkles and the occasional blemishes, I was searching for an anti-aging, light daily moisturizer with SPF that wouldn't break me out. I have noticed my forehead lines appear softer after a month of use and it has not broken me out. While it is hydrating, it is not overly greasy.
I also love the sanitary pump packaging. No more dirty fingers in a jar!
I would highly recommend this moisturizer and it is a steal if you can find it on sale. Works much better than more high end products I have used.
I love this stuff!! I have been using total effects 7 in 1 for several years and I find that it works well. I get the fragrance free version without sunscreen for my sensitive skin. I tried the one with spf 15 and did not like the smell.
A disappointment in this product. I wanted to try Olay , but wish I had researched other people who broke out from Olay products before i tried this. It did actually make a difference in fine lines , so that I cant fault it on , but due to breaking out from the product it self, I would never use Olay or recommend it ever. It was not an allergic rash or breakout, not sure what from the Olay brand causes it. I asked around and a few more people I know of actually broke out from Olay products , and one person it ate away holes on her skin. So buyer beware on this one. My cheeks were most effected.

You don't have to be married to a doctor to become a stay-at-home mom. If your husband has a blue-collar job, you can quit the rat race, stay at home, and actually have time and energy left over at the end of the day without sacrificing your standard of living. According to the US Census Bureau, the median household income was about $50K in 2007. Learn how to get out of the two-income trap by following this plan to reduce your annual expenses by up to $25K to $30K. After all, what's the point in working yourself to death if you don't have to?
The first and most critical thing you'll need to do is take a hard look at every single thing you spend money on. This is hard for most people to do because they don't actually have a clue about how much they spend each month. They only know how much they make and that there's not much left over at the end of the month. Stop using cash for a month. Use only your debit card for every penny you spend to keep a record of your spending. Now you're ready to map out a plan to become a stay-at-home mom using these concrete numbers. Proceed with the following exercises with the goal of eliminating the need for your salary by reducing costs.
Add up your current transportation costs. Include gas, car payments, insurance, and maintenance. Now examine what your costs will be once you're at home. You could feasibly share a car and cut your transportation costs in half. Even if you keep two cars, one could be an older model you could pay cash for which would cut the insurance bill drastically and eliminate the payment. Let's say your payment is $300, insurance is $100, gas is $60, and maintenance is $50 per month. If you use only one car when you stay home, you just cut $510 off your monthly expenses.
Take a critical look at your utility bills. Ask yourself what you would do differently to save money once you have more time at home. Could you hang your clothes to dry? Would you be able to unplug your appliances when they weren't in use? Would you still need that premium cellular plan if you're home all day? What about washing dishes by hand? With a few minor adjustments across the board, you could cut your utility bills by anywhere from 25% to 50% each month. If you typically spend $300 on gas, $200 on electric, $200 on cellular bills, and $75 on water, then a 25% reduction could save you about $200 to $400 per month. Factor that in with eliminating your child care bills and you've now lowered your bills by anywhere from $1500 to $2000 per month, depending on how many kids you have in daycare.
Calculate how much you typically spend on clothing for work, lunches at work, and fast food you pick up after work because you don't have time to cook. As a stay-at-home mom, I typically spend less than $1 on lunch each day, down from $3 to $6 per day when I worked outside of the home. Also, your grocery bill will be greatly reduced because you won't have to buy as many ready-to-eat meals and processed foods that cost two to four times as much as whole foods. We've reduced our grocery bill from $700 to less than $300 per month for three people. That includes household items and baby products, too. We're now up to $1800 to $2300 per month in savings.
Review your most recent income tax bill. Recalculate what your taxes will be when your income is gone. This will free up a significant amount of money for your family each year. Also, if you currently practice over-withholding (you get a tax refund each year), then stop. You're letting the government get an interest-free loan from your family. Have your husband change his withholding to reflect your new tax bill after you're staying home. You could take home hundreds more dollars each month of your own money this way. With a cheaper tax bill and more of your own money coming home to you each month, you could easily free up $300 to $600 each month, depending on several different factors including your husband's current income. Have we freed up enough cash each month to replace your income yet? If not, proceed to the next step. We're up to $2100 to $2600 in monthly spending cuts which is about $25,000 to $31,000 per year and this is only taking your net (take-home) pay into account. Remember that actually amounts to a larger gross salary.
Initiate one or several ways to make enough extra income to make up the difference between what you currently bring home and the amount you could potentially cut from becoming a stay-at-home mom. Participaing in eHow's writer's compensation program is a great way to bring in a passive income stream. There is no limit to the amount you could make but it's not unusual to expect anywhere from $1 to $5 per month for each article here. If writing isn't your thing, then focus on whatever skills you have and apply them to the corresponding way to make money from home. Once you've cut your spending and identified a way to bring in cash in other ways as needed, you're ready to make the move to being a stay-at-home mommy. Congratulations!
Challenge yourself to actively seek out less expensive ways to get the same things done. Being a stay-at-home mom in a blue-collar family means adopting a new lifestyle. You can celebrate special occasions and take vacations, but there's always a cheaper way to do these things. When you're interested in buying fitness equipment or bedroom furniture, don't spend thousands at retail stores. Start your search on Craigslist first. Learn how to find travel deals for vacations. Being frugal doesn't mean doing without, it simply means taking more time to think of how to get things done for less money. Once you get into it, you may actually discover how much fun it is.
Tips & Warnings
- Take time to think of the many other ways to cut your expenses or modify your lifestyle to allow you to stay at home.
- Don't forget to consider other important changes in your daily life such as the need for adult conversation or just something to do outside of domestic things before you quit your job.

Pakistan's strategic importance as an ally to the US has sharply diminished due to Islamabad's continued support for resurgent militant groups hostile to Washington, as well as warming American military and business relations with India, according to US military, diplomatic, and intelligence officials and outside experts.
The US has cut both military and economic assistance to Pakistan sharply in recent years, reflecting growing frustration among American officials with the nuclear-armed country's support for the Taliban militant group in neighboring Afghanistan, Reuters reported.
US officials and analysts say that Islamabad's support of the Taliban has hurt US-Pakistan ties for more than a decade, but the frustration has further spiked as the militant group has advanced in parts of Afghanistan that US and NATO forces once helped to secure.
"We're seeing a very definitive and very sharp reorienting of US policy in South Asia away from Afghanistan-Pakistan and more towards India," said Michael Kugelman, a South Asia expert with the Woodrow Wilson Center, a Washington-based think-tank.
US military and economic aid to Pakistan is expected to total less than $1 billion in 2016, down from a recent peak of more than $3.5 billion in 2011, according to US government data. Pakistan was once the third-largest recipient of US foreign assistance.
The decrease also comes amid budget restrictions and shifting global priorities for the US, including fighting the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group, and an increasingly assertive China and Russia.
Earlier this month, US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter refused to authorize $300 million in military aid to Pakistan, citing the limited gains the country has made fighting the terrorist Haqqani network.
"Congress is no longer willing to fund a state that supports the Afghan Taliban, which is killing American soldiers," said Bruce Riedel, a Brookings Institution expert and former CIA officer who headed President Barack Obama's first Afghanistan policy review.
Pakistani authorities have long rejected accusations that Islamabad has provided support and sanctuary to militants operating in Afghanistan. A senior Pakistani defense official said the US will continue to need Pakistan in the fight against terrorism.
"We have lost over a hundred billion dollars in fighting terrorism, which is more than anything they have given us," the Pakistani official told Reuters on condition of anonymity.
