What is Levofloxacin?
Levofloxacin injection is used to treat bacterial infections in many different parts of the body. It is also used to prevent an anthrax infection after a person has been exposed to anthrax. Levofloxacin is also used to treat and prevent plague (including pneumonic and septicemic plague).
Levofloxacin belongs to the class of medicines known as quinolone antibiotics. It works by killing bacteria or preventing their growth. However, Levofloxacin will not work for colds, flu, or other virus infections.
Levofloxacin is to be given only by or under the direct supervision of your doctor.
Levofloxacin indications
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Levofloxacin and other antibacterial drugs, Levofloxacin should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
Oral Solution are indicated for the treatment of adults (≥18 years of age) with mild, moderate, and severe infections caused by susceptible isolates of the designated microorganisms in the conditions listed in this section.
Culture and susceptibility testing
Appropriate culture and susceptibility tests should be performed before treatment in order to isolate and identify organisms causing the infection and to determine their susceptibility to Levofloxacin. Therapy with Levofloxacin may be initiated before results of these tests are known; once results become available, appropriate therapy should be selected.
As with other drugs in this class, some isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa may develop resistance fairly rapidly during treatment with Levofloxacin. Culture and susceptibility testing performed periodically during therapy will provide information about the continued susceptibility of the pathogens to the antimicrobial agent and also the possible emergence of bacterial resistance.
Nosocomial Pneumonia
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia due to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, or Streptococcus pneumoniae. Adjunctive therapy should be used as clinically indicated. Where Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a documented or presumptive pathogen, combination therapy with an anti-pseudomonal β-lactam is recommended.
Community-Acquired Pneumonia: 7–14 day Treatment Regimen
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia due to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae (including multi-drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae [MDRSP]), Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Moraxella catarrhalis, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, or Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
MDRSP isolates are isolates resistant to two or more of the following antibacterials: penicillin (MIC ≥2 mcg/mL), 2nd generation cephalosporins, e.g., cefuroxime, macrolides, tetracyclines and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole.
Community-Acquired Pneumonia: 5-day Treatment Regimen
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia due to Streptococcus pneumoniae (excluding multi-drug-resistant isolates [MDRSP]), Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, or Chlamydophila pneumoniae.
Acute Bacterial Sinusitis: 5-day and 10–14 day Treatment Regimens
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, or Moraxella catarrhalis.
Acute Bacterial Exacerbation of Chronic Bronchitis
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis due to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, or Moraxella catarrhalis.
Complicated Skin and Skin Structure Infections
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections due to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, or Proteus mirabilis.
Uncomplicated Skin and Skin Structure Infections
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections (mild to moderate) including abscesses, cellulitis, furuncles, impetigo, pyoderma, wound infections, due to methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, or Streptococcus pyogenes.
Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis due to Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, or methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus epidermidis.
Complicated Urinary Tract Infections: 5-day Treatment Regimen
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections due to Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, or Proteus mirabilis.
Complicated Urinary Tract Infections: 10-day Treatment Regimen
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (mild to moderate) due to Enterococcus faecalis, Enterobacter cloacae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, or Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Acute Pyelonephritis: 5 or 10-day Treatment Regimen
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of acute pyelonephritis caused by Escherichia coli, including cases with concurrent bacteremia.
Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infections
Levofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (mild to moderate) due to Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, or Staphylococcus saprophyticus.
Inhalational Anthrax (Post-Exposure)
Levofloxacin is indicated for inhalational anthrax (post-exposure) to reduce the incidence or progression of disease following exposure to aerosolized Bacillus anthracis. The effectiveness of Levofloxacin is based on plasma concentrations achieved in humans, a surrogate endpoint reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit. Levofloxacin has not been tested in humans for the post-exposure prevention of inhalation anthrax. The safety of Levofloxacin in adults for durations of therapy beyond 28 days or in pediatric patients for durations of therapy beyond 14 days has not been studied. Prolonged Levofloxacin therapy should only be used when the benefit outweighs the risk.
Levofloxacin is indicated for treatment of plague, including pneumonic and septicemic plague, due to Yersinia pestis (Y. pestis) and prophylaxis for plague in adults and pediatric patients, 6 months of age and older. Efficacy studies of Levofloxacin could not be conducted in humans with plague for ethical and feasibility reasons. Therefore, approval of this indication was based on an efficacy study conducted in animals.
How should I use Levofloxacin?
Use Levofloxacin solution as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- Levofloxacin solution comes with an extra patient information sheet called a Medication Guide. Read it carefully. Read it again each time you get Levofloxacin solution refilled.
- Take Levofloxacin solution by mouth on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating.
- Use a measuring device marked for medicine dosing. Ask your pharmacist for help if you are unsure of how to measure your dose.
- Drinking extra fluids while you are taking Levofloxacin solution is recommended. Check with your doctor for instructions.
- Do not take a product that has magnesium, aluminum, calcium, zinc, or iron in it within 2 hours before or 2 hours after you take Levofloxacin solution. Examples of these products include certain antacids, multivitamins, quinapril, and calcium-fortified orange juice. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you have a question about whether you should separate Levofloxacin solution from a certain food or product.
- If you also take sucralfate or didanosine, do not take them within 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking Levofloxacin solution. Check with your doctor if you have questions.
- Levofloxacin solution works best if it is taken at the same time each day.
- To clear up your infection completely, take Levofloxacin solution for the full course of treatment. Keep taking it even if you feel better in a few days.
- Do not miss any doses of Levofloxacin solution. If you miss a dose of Levofloxacin solution, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once or more than 1 dose in 1 day.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Levofloxacin solution.
Uses of Levofloxacin in details
Levofloxacin is used to treat bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, urinary tract, ear, tooth and prostate gland. It is also used to treat skin and soft tissue infections, anthrax and plague.
Levofloxacin description
Each tablet contains Levofloxacin 250 mg as active ingredient corresponding to Levofloxacin hemihydrate 256.23 mg.
Levofloxacin also contains the following inactive ingredients: Sodium chloride; sodium hydroxide; hydrochloric acid (qs: pH 4.8) and water for injection for a volume of 100 mL (Na+ concentration: 154 mmol/L).
Levofloxacin is a synthetic broad-spectrum antibacterial agent for oral and IV administration. Chemically, Levofloxacin, a chiral fluorinated carboxyquinolone, is the pure (-)-(S)-enantiomer of the racemic drug substance ofloxacin. Levofloxacin is (-)-(S)-9-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-methyl-10-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-7-oxo-7H-pyrido[1,2,3-de]-1,4 benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid hemihydrate.
Its empirical formula is C18H20FN3O4·½H2O and its molecular weight is 370.38.
Levofloxacin is a light yellowish-white to yellow-white crystal or crystalline powder. The molecule exists as a zwitterion at the pH conditions in the small intestine. The data demonstrate that from pH 0.6-5.8, the solubility of Levofloxacin is essentially constant (approximately 100 mg/mL). Levofloxacin is considered soluble to freely soluble in this pH range, as defined by USP nomenclature. Above pH 5.8, the solubility increases rapidly to its maximum at pH 6.7 (272 mg/mL) and is considered freely soluble in this range. Above pH 6.7, the solubility decreases and reaches a minimum value (about 50 mg/mL) at a pH of approximately 6.9. Levofloxacin has the potential to form stable coordination compounds with many metal ions. This in vitro chelation potential has the following formation order: A1+3 > Cu+2 > Zn+2 > Mg+2 > Ca+2.
Levofloxacin dosage
Dosage in Adult Patients with Normal Renal Function
The usual dose of Levofloxacin Tablets, USP is 250 mg, 500 mg, or 750 mg administered orally every 24 hours, as indicated by infection and described in Table 1.
These recommendations apply to patients with creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min. For patients with creatinine clearance <50 mL/min, adjustments to the dosing regimen are required.
Dosage in Pediatric Patients
The dosage in pediatric patients ≥ 6 months of age is described below in Table 2.
Dosage Adjustment in Adults with Renal Impairment
Administer Levofloxacin Tablets, USP with caution in the presence of renal insufficiency. Careful clinical observation and appropriate laboratory studies should be performed prior to and during therapy since elimination of Levofloxacin may be reduced.
No adjustment is necessary for patients with a creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min.
In patients with impaired renal function (creatinine clearance <50 mL/min), adjustment of the dosage regimen is necessary to avoid the accumulation of Levofloxacin due to decreased clearance.
Table 3 shows how to adjust dose based on creatinine clearance.
Drug Interaction With Chelation Agents: Antacids, Sucralfate, Metal Cations, Multivitamins
Levofloxacin Tablets
Levofloxacin Tablets, USP should be administered at least two hours before or two hours after antacids containing magnesium, aluminum, as well as sucralfate, metal cations such as iron, and multivitamin preparations with zinc or didanosine chewable/buffered tablets or the pediatric powder for oral solution.
Administration Instructions
Food and Levofloxacin Tablets, USP
Levofloxacin Tablets, USP can be administered without regard to food.
Hydration for Patients Receiving Levofloxacin Tablets, USP
Adequate hydration of patients receiving oral Levofloxacin Tablets, USP should be maintained to prevent the formation of highly concentrated urine. Crystalluria and cylindruria have been reported with quinolones.
Levofloxacin interactions
There are no data concerning an interaction of quinolones IV with oral antacids, sucralfate, multivitamins, didanosine or metal cations. However, no quinolone should be co-administered with any solution containing multivalent cations eg, magnesium, through the same IV line.
Theophylline: No significant effect of Levofloxacin on the plasma concentrations, AUC and other disposition parameters for theophylline was detected in a clinical study involving 14 healthy volunteers. Similarly, no apparent effect of theophylline on Levofloxacin absorption and disposition was observed. However, concomitant administration of other quinolones with theophylline has resulted in prolonged elimination half-life, elevated serum theophylline levels and a subsequent increase in the risk of theophylline-related adverse reactions in the patient population. Therefore, theophylline levels should be closely monitored and appropriate dosage adjustments made when Levofloxacin is co-administered. Adverse reactions, including seizures, may occur with or without an elevation in serum theophylline levels.
Warfarin: No significant effect of Levofloxacin on the Cmax, AUC and other disposition parameters for R- and S-warfarin was detected in a clinical study involving healthy volunteers. Similarly, no apparent effect of warfarin on Levofloxacin absorption and disposition was observed. There have been reports during the postmarketing experience in patients that Levofloxacin enhances the effects of warfarin. Elevations of the prothrombin time in the setting of concurrent warfarin and Levofloxacin use have been associated with episodes of bleeding. Prothrombin time, INR or other suitable anticoagulation tests should be closely monitored if Levofloxacin is administered concomitantly with warfarin. Patients should also be monitored for evidence of bleeding.
Cyclosporine: No significant effect of Levofloxacin on the Cmax, AUC and other disposition parameters for cyclosporine was detected in a clinical study involving healthy volunteers. However, elevated serum levels of cyclosporine have been reported in the patient population when co-administered with some other quinolones. Levofloxacin Cmax and ke were slightly lower while Tmax and t½ were slightly longer in the presence of cyclosporine than those observed in other studies without concomitant medication. The differences, however, are not considered to be clinically significant. Therefore, no dosage adjustment is required for Levofloxacin or cyclosporine when administered concomitantly.
Digoxin: No significant effect of Levofloxacin on the Cmax, AUC and other disposition parameters for digoxin was detected in a clinical study involving healthy volunteers. Levofloxacin absorption and disposition kinetics were similar in the presence or absence of digoxin. Therefore, no dosage adjustment for Levofloxacin or digoxin is required when administered concomitantly.
Probenecid and Cimetidine: No significant effect of probenecid or cimetidine on the rate and extent of Levofloxacin absorption were observed in a clinical study involving healthy volunteers. The AUC and t1/2 of Levofloxacin were 27-38% and 30% higher, respectively, while CL/F and CLR were 21-35% lower during concomitant treatment with probenecid or cimetidine compared to Levofloxacin alone. Although these differences were statistically significant, the changes were not high enough to warrant dosage adjustment for Levofloxacin when probenecid or cimetidine is co-administered.
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs: The concomitant administration of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug with a quinolone, including Levofloxacin, may increase the risk of CNS stimulation and convulsive seizures.
Antidiabetic Agents: Disturbances of blood glucose, including hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, have been reported in patients treated concomitantly with quinolones and an antidiabetic agent. Therefore, careful monitoring of blood glucose is recommended when these agents are co-administered.
Levofloxacin side effects
Serious and Otherwise Important Adverse Reactions
The following serious and otherwise important adverse drug reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of labeling:
- Tendon Effects
- Exacerbation of Myasthenia Gravis
- Hypersensitivity Reactions
- Other Serious and Sometimes Fatal Reactions
- Hepatotoxicity
- Central Nervous System Effects
- Clostridium difficile-Associated Diarrhea
- Peripheral Neuropathy that may be irreversible
- Prolongation of the QT Interval
- Musculoskeletal Disorders in Pediatric Patients
- Blood Glucose Disturbances
- Photosensitivity/Phototoxicity [see
- Development of Drug Resistant Bacteria
Hypotension has been associated with rapid or bolus intravenous infusion of Levofloxacin. Levofloxacin should be infused slowly over 60 to 90 minutes, depending on dosage.
Crystalluria and cylindruria have been reported with quinolones, including Levofloxacin. Therefore, adequate hydration of patients receiving Levofloxacin should be maintained to prevent the formation of a highly concentrated urine.
Clinical Trial Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The data described below reflect exposure to Levofloxacin in 7537 patients in 29 pooled Phase 3 clinical trials. The population studied had a mean age of 50 years (approximately 74% of the population was < 65 years of age), 50% were male, 71% were Caucasian, 19% were Black. Patients were treated with Levofloxacin for a wide variety of infectious diseases. Patients received Levofloxacin doses of 750 mg once daily, 250 mg once daily, or 500 mg once or twice daily. Treatment duration was usually 3 to 14 days, and the mean number of days on therapy was 10 days.
The overall incidence, type and distribution of adverse reactions was similar in patients receiving Levofloxacin doses of 750 mg once daily, 250 mg once daily, and 500 mg once or twice daily. Discontinuation of Levofloxacin due to adverse drug reactions occurred in 4.3% of patients overall, 3.8% of patients treated with the 250 mg and 500 mg doses and 5.4% of patients treated with the 750 mg dose. The most common adverse drug reactions leading to discontinuation with the 250 and 500 mg doses were gastrointestinal (1.4%), primarily nausea (0.6%); vomiting (0.4%); dizziness (0.3%); and headache (0.2%). The most common adverse drug reactions leading to discontinuation with the 750 mg dose were gastrointestinal (1.2%), primarily nausea (0.6%), vomiting (0.5%); dizziness (0.3%); and headache (0.3%).
Adverse reactions occurring in ≥1% of levofloxacin-treated patients and less common adverse reactions, occurring in 0.1 to <1% of levofloxacin-treated patients, are shown in Table 6 and Table 7, respectively. The most common adverse drug reactions (≥3%) are nausea, headache, diarrhea, insomnia, constipation, and dizziness.
In clinical trials using multiple-dose therapy, ophthalmologic abnormalities, including cataracts and multiple punctate lenticular opacities, have been noted in patients undergoing treatment with quinolones, including Levofloxacin. The relationship of the drugs to these events is not presently established.
Postmarketing Experience
Table 8 lists adverse reactions that have been identified during post-approval use of Levofloxacin. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, reliably estimating their frequency or establishing a causal relationship to drug exposure is not always possible.
Levofloxacin contraindications
Patients hypersensitive to Levofloxacin or any other quinolones or any excipients of Levofloxacin. Patients with epilepsy and those with history of tendon disorder related to fluoroquinolone administration.
Use in pregnancy: Levofloxacin caused no impairment of fertility or reproductive performance in rats at oral doses as high as 360 mg/kg/day. It was not teratogenic in rats at oral doses as high as 810 mg/kg/day or at IV dose up to 160 mg/kg/day. No teratogenicity was observed when rabbits were dosed orally as high as 50 mg/kg/day.
In the absence of human data and due to the experimental risk of damage by fluoroquinolones to the weight-bearing cartilage of the growing organism, Levofloxacin must not be used in pregnant women or women suspected of being pregnant.
Use in lactation: In the absence of human data and due to the experimental risk of damage by fluoroquinolones to the weight-bearing cartilage of the growing organism, Levofloxacin must not be used in breastfeeding women.
Use in children: Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients and adolescents <16 years have not been established. Quinolones, including Levofloxacin, cause arthropathy and osteochondrosis in juvenile animals of several species.
Use in
Elderly: The pharmacokinetic properties of Levofloxacin in younger adults and elderly do not differ significantly when creatinine clearance is taken into consideration. However, since Levofloxacin is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, the risk of toxic reactions to Levofloxacin may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection and it may be useful to monitor renal function.

Today a cute little email landed in my inbox. It was from Paypal (what is paypal?)!! It said I needed to update my account information and provided a link so that I could go directly to Paypal.com and update my information. How convenient...In fact, the email wasn't from Paypal.com, it was from a scamer trying to get my personal information. My point here is be suspicious of every email you get and never click on links in an email. If you want to go to the link in the email, type it in. Your bank/ebay/paypal/etc... will never ask you to update your info through an email or ask you for personal information. I took a screen shot of the email and posted a few comments on the pictures to help you spot a scam. The second picture shows the status bar at the bottom of my browser when I floated my mouse over the link that was suppose to go to paypal.com. Check out the pictures below, and be careful when you check your email.

text: I'll be leaving for France next week and plan to buy a SIM card locally for my D2G. VZW gave me the unlock code and I have done this in Italy last month. There, I just bought a card at Rome airport on arrival and the guy in the store configured it for me. Can someone recommend a provider in France? What slightly complicates this is that I actually fly to Belgium (Brussels) so picking up a card at the airport is probably not an option. My understanding is that they go by country. Where would I go to buy a SIM card in France and, if possible, have them install it, too? (I am not exact a Droidology expert). Thanks.

The University and College Union said it was the 12th round of job cuts at Salford in the last 18 months, calling the institution "Britain's most prolific university for axing staff".
According to the UCU, the cuts, which would fall heaviest on library staff, were "being carried out under inferior terms and conditions that the university has imposed on staff". The university confirmed there would be a minimum 45-day consultation period, rather than the more standard 90-day period, for the 171 professional services staff whose jobs could be at risk.
Salford said in a statement: "Sector-wide changes in higher education are the most serious that universities have faced for decades.
"Pressures including increases in tuition fees, visa issues affecting international students and student number control have resulted in a dramatic fall in student demand across the UK, with a substantial impact on Salford."
The statement added: "No final decisions will be taken until the consultations have been completed and, although unfortunately we cannot rule out the potential for compulsory redundancies at this stage, we will, as always, take every possible step to avoid these."
On the library, the university said it had announced a £1 million investment in a major upgrade to its central library facilities in the Clifford Whitworth Building.
This would provide on the main campus "a year round, 24/7 facility for all our students," the university said. But "part of this investment will inevitably involve the redeployment of some library employees, and our proposal could affect 84 members of staff with up to 55 people potentially being made redundant".
Martyn Moss, University and College Union regional official, said: "The University of Salford has the unenviable tag as Britain's most prolific university for axing staff."
Kevan Nelson, head of Unison in the North West, said students could be "put off from applying to the university; standards will be hit as staff numbers fall. Instead of pursuing a steady as she sinks strategy, the university needs to get into talks with unions to find a constructive way forward."

To Love God and All People for the Transformation of the World
H.I.M. Puppet Ministry -- Hands in Motion
God has a sense of humor, and the puppet ministry likes to present this through songs and skits with a message from Him to the audience. It is always about glorifying Him.
The Puppeteers are busy from September through May. They participate at FUMC in worship services and special events, and also take their show on the road to six care centers in Marysville and one in Plain City. They have also visited other area churches, Windsor Community Center, and the Helen Evans apartments Bible study. After performing, the kids and their puppets mingle with the residents at the care facilities. It is a good experience for the kids and the residents love it!
This is a fun ministry to learn new skills, discover hidden talents, and make new friends while serving the Lord. HIM practices at the church during the school year on Monday from 7:00 - 8:00 pm. All 5th through 12th graders are welcome.
HIM is directed by Marianne Birt, with assistant directors Christine Hayes and Denise Dunn. Please contact Marianne Birt with questions at (937) 642-4813 or by email at himbirtyahoo.com.
Mondays at 7:00 pm in Rooms 245 & 246, beginning Sept. 11th for 2017/18.

Total consumer credit increased at an annual rate of 4.8% for November to hit $3.07 trillion, according to a Federal Reserve consumer credit report (link opens a pdf) released today.
Investors watch consumer credit closely for two main reasons. Credit gives an indication of consumer sentiment, and growing numbers can mean either more confident or more cash-strapped consumers. Demand for credit also affects interest rates, which could rise as more consumers want more money.
After expanding at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 7% for October, this month's $12.3 billion month-over-month increase clocked in $1.9 billion below analyst expectations.
Revolving credit (no fixed number of payments, e.g., credit cards) increased at an annual rate of 0.6%. While the month-to-month gain was relatively small, November's increase comes on the heels of October's 5.6% rise, the third largest of the recovery.
Nonrevolving credit (fixed installments, e.g., car payments) packed the most punch, up 6.4% as vehicle and student loans continue to grow. But The Wall Street Journal reported that student loans may be inflated due to government purchases of private loans.

Healing the sick
The healing properties of traditional Chinese medicine have become well-known in Australia. Here, Kwong Sue Duk, a noted herbalist, is treating sick people in country Australia.
The travelling herbalists
The healing properties of traditional Chinese medicine became known through the work of travelling herbalists such as Kwong Sue Duk (1853–1929). Kwong Sue Duk worked on the Californian goldfields before returning to China in 1874 to study traditional medicine. He migrated to Darwin (then known as Palmerston) in 1875. He established a general store trading under the name of Sun Mow Loong where he offered treatment for many diseases and ailments.
Kwong Sue Duk later travelled throughout the goldfields, towns and countryside in Victoria, Queensland and the Northern Territory. He provided relief for many sufferers of arthritis, fevers and muscle strain and was well-known for his kindness and generosity.
Kwong Sue Duk married four times and had 26 children. After settling in Melbourne he became known as the 'Russell Street healing herbalist', and he was renowned throughout Australia for his healing abilities.

This is a set of three small, soft-covered personal journals which feature graffiti art from street artist AVONE. Alongside these inspirational images are pages of blank space to be filled with one's own creative expressions. Experience the real New York through the artistic expression of one who calls it home. From Brooklyn's own street artist AV ONE comes Street-Art New York, a set of three small soft-covered journals filled with images of his popular graffiti art. Influenced by abstract expressionists' art and inspired by the New York urban landscape, AV ONE creates art that is evocative of the real New York. It is gritty and raw, and also stunningly beautiful. Alongside these images are pages of blank space for you to fill with your own exceptional artwork, writings, and other imaginings. Whether you are an aspiring artist or a doodler, a journalist or an admirer of art, these journals will bring you to new levels of expression. So, get into the streets and get creative!
AVONE (A-V-One) was once considered New York City's most wanted street artist. Born and raised in Brooklyn, he is the quintessential New York artist. Through his work, AVONE creates a re-imagined urban environment, wrought with images of distinctive, gritty decay. The artist's work is mainly influenced by the city he calls home, as well as abstract expressionist Franz Kline and Andy Goldsworthy. Currently, he works at Candamill Studios. However, unlike a lot of artists of our time, AVONE produces every part of his art in-house - from the actual making of his silk screens, to printing, framing and working other materials. Every inch of his creation happens within his control, pushing him to constantly experiment with new mediums.

Phoebe Snow suffers brain hemorrhage
Singer-songwriter was in intensive care ThursdaySinger Phoebe Snow suffered a brain hemorrhage at her home Tuesday and has undergone emergency surgery, her manager said.
Doctors for the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter said that the surgery went well, and Snow was hospitalized Thursday in intensive care at an undisclosed location, manager Sue Cameron added.
"It is too early to assess any residual motor damage, and we are taking it day-by-day, but doctors are hopeful for a complete recovery," Cameron said.
Snow's "Poetry Man," released in 1975, was her first huge hit. The two-time Grammy Award nominee has released 16 albums; her most recent was "Phoebe Snow Live" in 2008.
Snow, 58, does about 50 concerts a year in the U.S., Cameron said.

On the Corolla and Corolla Matrix recall, Toyota says the air bag control module for the supplemental restraint system could have been manufactured with circuits that are susceptible to internal shorting.
An internal short could create abnormal current flow and increased heat that could cause the front air bag(s) and/or seat belt pretensioners to deploy without a crash occurring.
The second recall involves the front wipers on certain Lexus IS vehicles where the wiper arm nut might not be tight. Too much pressure on the wipers, such as from a large amount of snow, could prevent the wipers from working.
The affected vehicles include 2006-2012 Lexus IS250 and IS350 vehicles manufactured August 23, 2005, through October 5, 2011; 2010-2012 Lexus IS250C and IS350C vehicles manufactured April 10, 2009, through October 6, 2011; and 2008-2011 Lexus IS-F vehicles manufactured December 14, 2007, through July 10, 2011.
Damaged Reputation
The two recalls are further embarrassments for Toyota, who has been in the news a lot recently for all the wrong reasons:
- Toyota recalled more vehicles in the U.S. in 2012 than any other manufacturer, earning the title of Recall King of 2012
- They were losers in a demanding new crash test by the IIHS.
- They also agreed to pay $17 million for failing to report safety defects in a timely manner.
Toyota has not released a schedule of when the recalls will begin. Owners will receive notification by mail and any Toyota or Lexus dealer will perform the needed repairs. Owners can contact Toyota at 800-331-4331 or Lexus at 800-255-3987.

Jan. 4, 2008
Milford, CT - Senior Alexandre Parent (Boisbriand, QC) and junior Eric Giosa (Detroit, MI) each scored goals and junior Stefan Drew (Oakbank, MB) made 35 saves in goal as Sacred Heart held off a late Air Force rally to earn a 2-1 win in Atlantic Hockey action Friday night at the Milford Ice Pavilion.
The win marked the first time the Pioneers have ever beaten Air Force in eight total meetings. With the victory, Sacred Heart (7-8-2, 7-2-2 AHA) moves to within one point of Air Force (9-6-4, 7-5-3 AHA) for first place in the Atlantic Hockey standings.
Air Force controlled the offensive play for much of the game, out-shooting Sacred Heart 36-19. However, it was SHU who built a two goal lead. Giosa got Pioneers started with 2:33 left in the first period. Junior Bear Trapp (Balcarres, SK) took the puck behind the net and fed Giosa a perfect centering pass. Giosa wound up and fired the puck past Falcon goaltender Andrew Volkening for his sixth goal of the year,
Parent and sophomore Erik Boisvert (Drummondville, QC) connected on a play 5:23 into the second period to give the Pioneers a 2-0 lead. Boisvert carried the puck into the offensive zone along the board and fed Parent a pass in the slot. The senior captain simply had to touch the puck to redirect it into the net for his team leading seventh goal of the season.
Air Force finally got on the board with 46 seconds left in the game on an extra-attacker, power play goal by Jeff Hajner. However, Drew was as superb in the final seconds as he was the rest of the night to preserve the victory for the Pioneers. Drew made several impressive saves throughout the night, including a handful while lying down.
Sacred Heart and Air Force will close out their weekend series Saturday night at the Milford Ice Pavilion. Face-off is set for 7:05 pm.

Game 100: Tigers at Mariners
LHP Mike Maroth vs. LHP Jamie Moyer. 7:05pm, FSN and KOMO.
I've touched on this before, but how misleading are won-loss records? Maroth, pitching for a .500 club, has a decent 4.42 ERA but an 8-10 record. Moyer, pitching for a bad club, has a nearly identical 4.47 ERA but is 8-3. Boggle boggle.
Moyer doesn't show up on Maroth's list of similar players, which surprised me a bit. They're both left-handed, they both give up homers, they both use the changeup as their out pitch… and neither guy strikes out many hitters. Maroth is listed at 6-0, 190, and Moyer is listed at 6-0, 182. I'm telling you, they might as well be the same pitcher.
Now that I've said that, it'll probably be 15-0 today with one getting shelled and the other pitching a no-hitter. Game on!

199. Got to experience the best AC/DC cover band I ever heard at Bite of Seattle: Problem Child. Their singer sounds exactly like Bon Scott. Everything they played was during Bon's era, although it might have been interesting to see them do For Those About to Rock or Thunderstruck. Especially since Brian Johnson does his own versions of the early classics in concert.

Sexson now has more homers than any Mariner all last year (Boone had 24). He's looking like a good bet to pass Boone's '03 (35) and '01 (37), and might conceivably even make it to ARod's '00 (41).
Not quite MVP yet, though he's eighth in RARP and VORP.
It's nice to have some boom back in the order again.

text: It was about six years ago when Laney Sullivan, 28, and her boyfriend Jameson Price, 30, sold all their possessions, cancelled the lease on their Richmond, Va., apartment, and took off to work on organic farms in South America. When it started to get cold and the farm work turned brutal they worked in youth hostels. Sullivan had brought an accordion, and Price had his guitar."We had written a bunch of songs while we were traveling, and we wanted to record them. So when we came back to Richmond we recorded an album," Laney says. And that was the beginning of the band Lobo Marino. But if that origin story isn't compelling enough, here's how they got their name: While in South America they ran into a giant Pacific sea lion known in the region as el lobo marino. The animal growled, a deep, low rumbling sound, and, with that, the sea creature became their spirit guide.

Some friends have been planning a trip to Hong Kong for later in October and I dragged my feet when it came to purchasing a ticket so now I am left trying to sort something out semi last minute. I started looking for a United reward and was able to book Portland-Houston-Taipei (3 days) Taipei-Singapore (2 days) then Hong Kong-Chicago-Portland. I will book a separate ticket from Singapore to Macau and then take the ferry over to Hong Kong to spend a few days there before heading home.
I do enjoy Singapore but I have visited before and was actually hoping to visit somewhere new. I looked and found space on a Taipei-Saigon flight. Excited, I started posting the details of my trip on Twitter and my excitement was quickly extinguished. Back in September the visa requirements for US citizens to enter Vietnam changed. The only visa now available is a 1-year multi-entry type. It costs $60 for the visa with a $135 "stamping" fee (that has to be paid in cash to the immigration officer in Vietnam). There is a way around this but it requires entering Vietnam via Phu Quoc island.
For me, $195 for a couple of days in Vietnam when I may not return in a calendar year is difficult for me to justify. I would love to visit Vietnam but with limited time, the cost is restrictive. So where should I go instead? Do I stick with Singapore? Head to Kuala Lumpur or Penang, Malaysia instead? Somewhere else?
If I do end up keeping the reward, I am pretty excited to try out EVA's Royal Laurel Class, which for Houston-Taipei would be on a Hello Kitty plane.


text: The Democrat will be lucky to exceed Michael Dukakis's share of the popular vote. BY BRENDAN MINITER Tuesday, September 7, 2004 12:01 a.m. EDT The media may finally be catching up to the idea that the nation may have turned decidedly in Mr. Bush's favor. Coming out of the convention Time and Newsweek conducted separate polls, each of which found that the president had opened up an 11-point lead over Mr. Kerry. These surveys seem to have oversampled Republicans, but a new Gallup Poll puts Mr. Bush up by a still impressive seven points, 52% to 45%. Even as convention euphoria fades, there are plenty of reasons to disbelieve the "50-50 nation" story line: Central to Mr. Kerry's campaign is his promise to raise taxes. Walter Mondale had a similar idea, and he went down in a landslide defeat at the hands of the last Republican president to be re-elected. Similarly, the last Republican president to lose his re-election bid, George H.W. Bush, lost partly because he raised taxes. When skeptical voters--otherwise known as independents--are worried about taxes, they are looking for an unequivocal position. They know that promises to only tax the "rich" almost always morph into taxes on the middle class. Mr. Bush is already capitalizing on this. In his speech Thursday night, he noted that Mr. Kerry is "running on a platform to increase taxes--and that's the kind of promise a politician usually keeps." Americans may be the most highly scrutinized and studied electorate in the world, but there's still plenty of activity going on under the radar. Voter turnout is going to be crucial to this election. Indeed, presidential adviser Karl Rove is banking on it. As many as four million evangelical Christians--a group that overwhelmingly supports Mr. Bush--sat out the 2000 election. Getting them to the polls will likely make the difference in several key states. Meanwhile perhaps another 80 million eligible voters didn't cast ballots in the last presidential election. After a close election in 2000 and a sense that this year will be a "historic election" because it will decide whether the nation aggressively pursues terrorists, many are predicting a record turnout in November. Mr. Kerry may be hoping for an anti-Bush surge, but concern for national security is a better motivator for new voters. The McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform is a bigger factor in this election than most people realize. Everyone now knows that the law gave rise to the much-maligned "527s," named for the section of the tax code that allows them to raise and spend unlimited amounts of money. With the gloves off, Democrats hoped these groups would beat Mr. Bush into unconsciousness or at least bloody him a little. Instead, it is Mr. Kerry who's been battered by a band of dissenting Vietnam veterans who spent just a few million dollars. What most people don't realize is that McCain-Feingold moved much of corporate America out of the business of writing large checks to the political parties and into the business of building grassroots support for candidates who share their concerns. In South Carolina, The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, International Paper helped pro-trade candidate Jim DeMint win the Republican senatorial primary by e-mailing employees in the state to encourage them to vote and educate them on the value of free trade to the company. Mr. DeMint is happy the company used its resources this way rather than by writing checks to the party. "I'd rather have the voters," he told the Journal. Meanwhile, Wal-Mart gave similar support to Sen. Blanche Lincoln, an Arkansas Democrat, because she's been a good friend to the retailer. The Federal Election Commission keeps track of checks to politicians and parties, but keeping up with what's going on at the grassroots level is much harder. With corporate America now in the game and many churches helping to mobilize voter turnout (regular church attendees overwhelmingly vote Republican), Republicans may finally have found a counterweight to labor union get-out-the-vote efforts. Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia are swing states with strong unions, but many of the union members there are actually Republicans or are the kind of Democrats who will find it hard to pull the lever for Mr. Kerry. These are the union Democrats who drink beer, watch Nascar and own guns. They have no cultural affinity for a Northeastern liberal who spends his time on the Idaho ski slopes outside one of his billionaire wife's many mansions or windsurfing off Nantucket. Pennsylvania's Gov. Ed Rendell, a Democrat, picked up on this and told a reporter: "I might have gone windsurfing--you certainly have a right to clear your head. But I'm not sure I would have taken the press with me." Look for all three states to show up red on election night. The economy is actually pretty good in several swing states. In West Virginia, Mr. Bush told a cheering crowd recently that the state's unemployment rate of 5.2% is below the national average of 5.4%. In Ohio the unemployment rate is in line with national figures, but even that is lower than the average unemployment rate for the entire decade of the 1990s. With yet another hurricane pounding Florida, the economy there may not be in good shape come Election Day--but it's unlikely voters will punish Mr. Bush for that if he responds quickly with federal assistance. Even Mr. Kerry doesn't believe the nation is evenly split, despite the Democrats' public insistence that everyone who voted for Al Gore in 2000 will automatically vote against Mr. Bush this time. Mr. Kerry is flip-flopping in hopes of appealing to voters on both sides of the aisle. On the big issue--the war--Mr. Kerry at times is officially in line with Mr. Bush's policy goals. Indeed, he said last month that even knowing what he knows now, he would have voted for the war. Then, in an angry midnight speech last Thursday, Mr. Kerry sounded like Michael Moore when he accused the administration of having "misled the nation into Iraq." Mr. Kerry's fickleness on the most important issue of the day does not bespeak confidence about his own chances. Despite Mr. Kerry's war credentials, Democrats are now expressing doubt that he can win unless he changes the subject from national security to the economy. Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh told the New York Times this weekend that "so much of the [Democratic] convention was focused on national security--if that's where the election is, I don't think he can win. He has got to try to turn the election to domestic issues." Harold Ickes, who served as Bill Clinton's deputy White House chief of staff and is now running an anti-Bush 527, also thinks Mr. Kerry needs to turn the conversation away from national security. He told the New York Times that Mr. Kerry "just needs to hammer home jobs, the economy, health care and education." Other Democrats now doubt Mr. Kerry's ability to fight back in the political arena, let alone on far off battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan. After weeks of punishing attacks on his Vietnam record with no effective response from the Kerry campaign, there's a hint of panic among Democrats that their guy may not know how to fight after all. That's one reason why, before heading into surgery, Bill Clinton counseled Mr. Kerry from his hospital bed and why several former Clinton hands joined the Kerry campaign over the weekend. Meanwhile Michigan's Gov. Jennifer Granholm and Florida's Sen. Bob Graham (both from important swing states) told reporters that Mr. Kerry needs to simplify his message so it will effectively reach voters. What these pols are trying to tell Mr. Kerry is that "nuance" doesn't translate into sound bites very well. Which brings us to the final reason Mr. Bush is probably going to walk away with the election: Mr. Kerry is not a very good politician. He's cultivated a reputation as a fighter, a good "closer," because of his last-minute surge past William Weld to win re-election in 1996. But that was in Massachusetts. Why was a two-term Democratic senator having trouble beating a Republican challenger in the only state George McGovern carried? One reason is that unlike Ted Kennedy, Mr. Kerry is not seen as a man who can get things done. No significant legislation bears his name. Full Article

Tom was born and raised in Rockford. He is a strong advocate for the region with a firm belief in the importance of community service. Tom currently serves as Rockford's 3rd Ward Alderman, representing constituents on Rockford's east and west sides, as well as downtown. He is the son of John & Barbara McNamara. He has five brothers and sisters: Nell, Mary, Dan, Kate & John. He met his wife Sarah Ann Reed at the Greenwich Village Art Fair. They were married in May 2011 and welcomed their baby girl Olympia in February 2016.
Tom is graduate of Rockford's Boylan Catholic High School. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Sociology and Criminology at John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio in 2005. He also earned a Masters degree in Non-Profit Administration from John Carroll University in 2008.
Tom is an insurance agent with Eckburg Insurance Group, a locally owned family business. Tom's practice focuses on protecting business assets, with an emphasis on serving non-profit organizations. Prior to joining Eckburg Insurance Group, Tom was the Career Development Specialist for Goodwill of Northern Illinois. He developed programs and wrote grants to help people with disabilities become self sufficient and enjoy all of the benefits of self-sufficiency – pride, dignity, self-worth, and the ability to support their families and give back to their communities.
Tom previously served as the County Work Release Coordinator for Alternatives Agency, Inc. in Cleveland, Ohio. Tom developed and implemented programs aimed at reducing recidivism by providing ex-offenders opportunities for education, job training, housing, and drug & alcohol counseling, including opportunities for religious-based support. The purpose of the programs was to address crime at the root cause. Providing people with avenues to succeed makes them less likely to turn back to drug addiction and crime.
Tom also served as a legislative intern for U.S. Senator Dick Durbin, where he met with non-profit and community organizations on behalf of the Senator.
As 3rd Ward Alderman, Tom has introduced and sponsored key legislation to invest in neighborhoods, make our community safer, and protect taxpayer dollars. He sponsored the mow-to-own program and residential owner-occupied tax rebate program. The residential owner-occupied tax rebate program allows single-family owner-occupied homeowners who purchase and renovate foreclosed or homes in short sale to have their City taxes rebated for three years. Tom brought together key government agencies, including the Rockford Public Schools and Rockford Park District, to join the program as well. Through Tom's initiative, participants can now receive tax rebates for up to 88% of their entire property tax bill. Under the mow-to-own program, property owners who maintain and improve vacant City-owned lots adjacent to their homes are able purchase the properties using only sweat equity at zero or substantially reduced costs.
Tom has also worked to increase the number of blighted and abandoned homes demolished by the City. Prior to Tom joining City Council, the City only demolished 20 abandoned homes per year. Now, the City demolishes over 100 homes per year.
Tom voted to increase the City's authorized police force. Since 2008, the City's the police force has grown from 285 to 297 officers. As Mayor, Tom will work to add even more police so that officers are out in our neighborhoods walking our streets and building relationships with residents.
As Alderman, Tom has worked hard to protect taxpayer dollars. He has worked with City Council to keep Rockford's tax levy flat 3 years in a row for the first time in 40 years, and actually reduced the levy in 2016. As Mayor, Tom will advocate for lower tax rates and will appoint members to taxing bodies who are fiscally responsible and share a likeminded responsibility to reduce wasteful government spending.
Tom also created an Ad-Hoc committee to develop and implement uniform guidelines for Rockford's TIF districts. Previously, the City had no objective criteria for awarding TIF funds to developers. Consequently, the City made high risk investments that ultimately cost the City money. Under Tom's leadership, the City now has an objective criteria for scoring TIF applications and only allows "pay as you go" TIFs, meaning developers can only receive funds as they are accrued in the TIF. In addition, developers using TIF funds are no longer able to contest their taxes. The guidelines also allow the City to prioritize developments it approves for TIF money.
Tom serves on the City Council's finance & personal, planning & development, and legislative & lobbying committees. He is Chair of the Housing Committee.
Tom is actively involved in the community. He was the past president of the Ignite Young Professionals and vice president of the Signal Hill Neighborhood Associations. He previously served as Co-Chair of Money Smart Week. He serves on the Midtown Advisory Council for United Way of Rockford River Valley. He is a Strategy Team Member for Next Rockford and a member of the Engage Team for Transform Rockford.
He also serves on the board of directors of the Northwest Community Center, Friends of the Coronado, and Rockford Area Arts Council. He is a member of the NAACP, League of Women Voters, YMCA Outreach Council, and Churchill's Grove Neighborhood Association.
Tom, Sarah, and Olympia live in the Churchill's Grove neighborhood. Tom is an avid Cubs fan and a mediocre golfer.

When I'm out of my home, I'm usually very un-observant. Too engrossed in my mental cobwebs.
Sometimes, though, I look around with eyes open. And see some person at some particular moment which gives me a glimpse of a back-story. A history. A lifestory.
Let me explain.
The other day I was at the neighbouring Sahakari Bhandar, a local departmental store where you can get groceries and other stuff at reasonable rates. I always go with a list (rice, wheat, oil, sugar...) but I always overshoot the list (adding 'Buy 1 Get 1 Free' and '30% Off' and 'Offer of the Day' stuff to my cart).
As I was standing in the queue at the cash counter an elderly gentleman, rather doddery and dressed in a manner that novelists usually describe as 'shabby gentility', came up to stand behind me. He had a shopping basket, not a trolley, to hold his meagre purchases - a bunch of 'palak', some brinjals, a broom and a (very economical) tooth-paste.
I saw him looking wistfully at the nearby rack stacked with chocolates. Hesitating, as the queue inched forward, looking away, and then yearningly looking again. Finally, he made up his mind. And reached out with a slightly shaking hand to put TWO SMALL DAIRY MILK WOWIE BARS in his basket. With a happy smile that made my day.
Immediately, sentimentally, I imagined his story. He was a loving grandfather buying treats for his grandchildren on their weekly/monthly visit to his home.
Or maybe it was a treat to be shared at with his fluffy white-haired plump-cheeked wife.
Or maybe he was a diabetic...and this was a pure self-loving indulgence in a forbidden pleasure.
Or maybe... HOW WOULD YOU END THIS STORY?
