Yaya Toure to put Olympiacos shambles behind him by moving to MLS
Manchester City legend has been without a club since he left the Greek side by 'mutual agreement' in December
YAYA TOURE has hinted he will continue his career in the United States after his disastrous spell at Olympiacos.
The Manchester City legend denied rumours that he is set to retire by insisting he wants to play for "two or three years".
Toure made just five appearances in all competitions for the Greek side before he left by "mutual agreement" in December.
The 35-year-old retired from international action in September 2016, but returned to the international set-up in March 2018.
But the former Barcelona midfielder has admitted he is not considering retirement and wants to continue playing.
He told Canal+: "No one can stop me from playing football, I just decided to take important time off for myself and it is very important to carefully weigh the options.
"It's not the end of retirement from the game because I believe I can still play for another two or three years."
Toure's senior career started with Belgian club Beveren in 2001 before spells with Metalurh Donetsk, Olympiacos, Monaco, Barcelona and Manchester City.

He won the Premier League three times, the Champions League and two La Liga titles with Barcelona and been named as the African Football of the Year four times.
When asked where he would like to resume his playing career, he said: "Why not in the United States, or in the Gulf or in Asia?
"I will take the time to think and see what I decide next season."

The Wireless Infrastructure Association stated in a release yesterday, its advocacy team is working on two important items enacted last week by Congress and the FCC.
On September 26, the FCC passed a small cells siting order, Inside Towers reported. WIA says it will clarify the role of state and local governments to make the process of siting wireless infrastructure faster and more efficient. Specifically, the order establishes two new shot clocks for small wireless facilities: 60 days for co-locations and 90 days for new installations. It also codifies the existing 90 and 150 day shot clocks for non-small wireless facility deployments, as established in the 2009 Declaratory Ruling.
"WIA had been very active in ensuring that industry priorities were addressed in this order. WIA and its members held several meetings with the FCC Chairman and the other Commissioners. The result of this hard work was that the language of the final Order tracks very closely to what WIA advocated for and many industry priorities were addressed," the association said in the release.
The association said it's also hard at work shaping Congressional legislation signed by the President that would eliminate a new requirement that certain towers in rural areas be marked in accordance with FAA regulations. On October 5, President Trump signed the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018, Inside Towers reported. It included several essential provisions, reducing the unnecessary requirement for the marking of certain communications towers. This clarification will protect the safety of low-flying aviation without imposing unnecessary regulations that would impede the deployment of 5G wireless services.

Naruto Shippuden 267 explodes as we see some crazy stuff! The Raikage, Mizukage, Kazekage and even the Tsuchikage are all back as Kabuto summons them. The increasing number of Edo Tensei Summoned people worries Shikaku so he develops an incredible tactical plan to which enables and impresses the current Raikage and Onoki. Everyone gets ready to go to war!
Naruto Shippuden 267 starts with Mu summoning 3 Powerful characters to the sands. The Second Tsuchikage had summoned the Third Raikage, Second Mizukage and Fourth Kazekage. They wake up and notice that they are alive and being used by the Edo Tensei. The Second Mizukage realizes that Second Tsuchikage had killed him while the Mizukage had also killed him. Basically they killed each other. They all wish they could fight each other at this point, but they can't because they can't move to kill each other.
Gaara's father, The Fourth Kazekage tells them that the Second Hokage had already died and is not the one that used this technique. The one which used it could be Orochimaru as he was the one that used it last time. Gaara watches using his portable eye from a safe distance. Shikamaru tells all the other people that they may be facing some dangerous enemies. Gaara shows the signal that there are enemies a head. Choji gets scared.
At the HQ, Raikage finds out that his father has also been Resurrected. He gets angry. Onoki tells them that the other Tsuchikage was there, that's why they couldn't detect him because he's one very powerful person. The HQ find out that there are multiple number of Edo Tensei beings driven to where Darui's team is located.
At Darui's Position, they notice that there are many of them coming their way. Kakuzu is noticed, Hizashi, Dan and Asuma are also noticed. Someone else notices two people called Kinkaku and Ginkaku, they seemed to have extreme power. At the HQ, Raikage finds out that they can only be the Gold and Silver Brothers! He says that he must get there, Shikaku tells him that he must stay there as he must give orders.
Shikaku comes up with an amazing plan now which impresses both Onoki and Raikage. The Raikage tells Tsunade that this is the reason the Raikage was never able to defeat the Leaf, because they have such great thinkers. Onoki tells Shikaku that his plan is fantastic, except for one thing! Mu has the ability to change his usability and is able to have Kekkei Tota. He's able to do Blood Expansion. Onoki tells him that he must go to where Gaara is located and help him out. The plan is told to everyone and is spread to everyone else too.
Tenten is currently worried about everyone because she's going to face a lot of enemies. Choza tells her that she needs not worry because her friends will not lose and they will not lose, those she must not worry but to actually believe in them! Back at the desert, Gaara's father, the Fourth Kazekage notices Gaara's eye wandering around spying on them. He quickly notices that it's Gaara's! Naruto Shippuden 267 ends here!
What an incredible episode! Although it was a little less than I expected, it contained what I wrote most of it on! Hopefully the fight between the Ginkaku and Kinkaku will begin with Darui and his team will begin during next week's Naruto Shippuden 268! Can't wait!

move object end to playhead?
Apr 26th, 2008, 11:08
does anyone know how to do this please? I don't mean changing length, just "pick up clock" or "move to SPL" for the object end, just as you can with the object beginning. Logic seems to be missing this function. Thanks!! RRReply

Our current status (Narda and me) @ - we have arrived in Adelaide after 10 weeks in the Netherlands and flights back via Amsterdam and Singapore where we spent 17 hours - we have been given amazing help with a home in Swan Reach along the Murray River for us to do our quarantine of two weeks in Adelaide until the 8th of April then we will move back into our own home. Our flight Amsterdam to Singapore was good. About 75% full, we stayed covered and washed. The airport in Amsterdam was quite empty. The same for Singapore where we stayed in our hotel within immigration for 12 hours then in a premiere lounge. Thanks to family, friends, strangers... for so many good thoughts, offers of help and keeping us positive.
After fourteen days in quarantine we feel good. Tomorrow we will drive back home to Vista, South Australia and do self-isolation until... Cheers. Updated Tuesday 07 April/2020 10 AM #Swan Reach, South Australia. e-books

Constituting the ODAM (Online Discourse Analysis Method)
Use of mixed linguistic analysis methodology
Finding strictly regulated language practices
Main feature of online talk: Open/Creative practices
Charting ODAM
Building inwards from the broad user-perspectives of Reader Response, examining chat postings as actively received interpreted "wreaderly" communication, the ODAM has cut four deep and "rich descriptive" wedges from a multi-dimensional, multi-leveled set of chat actions. Beginning simply on an empirically driven arm: to cut into actual instances of chat practice using any existing research methods which could examine how online talk "works". The study can now be seen to offer in the first instance, a set of interlocking research tools, any or all of which can be picked up, critiqued and re-applied, to be improved upon in future studies, by future researchers.
A second "wedge" or cut from the research findings however establishes that a key direction in linguistic research methodologies: the drive towards establishing the "regulatory" or rules-and-systems elements behind language use, is indeed given a different spin within online talk. Here it proves possible, again and again, from method to method – across the seven case studies "speech communities", to reveal tightly regulated, recurrent and systematic talk practices, variant from those observable offline, even where there are equivalent interest or topic groups. Wedge 2 indicates those already established online practices which constitute the difference, and even expertise of online chat, this suggests that it may well be on its way to constituting its own "speech community/ies".
But it is wedge 3: those descriptive features which reveal a markedly "open" or "creative" set of communicative behaviours online, which reveal how chat is being constituted. Here the evidence of complexity, semiotic and graphic play, consistent relational focus and creative expertise introduces the dynamic energy of online communication. Favouring members and strategies and expertise which reveal skill and creativity and fast-paced interpretive responsiveness.
Wedge 3 practices lead us on to the discourse-under formation of wedge 4 or discourse demanding continual enactment of familiarity, consensual strategies, relational work, and what CA would call "category maintenance" – of an exclusively "communal" kind.
Online chat, regardless of topic or the specifics of a participant group, appears directed to community itself. Not quite un-agentric as it dis-connects from action, it becomes meta-agentric: more about how to operate than about "what to do", It is this, contrary to most contemporary public and media's accounts, richer in value than in projects. It is a discourse largely about itself.
Having completed the seven differently-focused case studies designed to investigate these issues, it is now possible to see the quite distinctive directions these questions raise and the concomitant ways in which equally distinctive "clusters" of research focus have proven to have arise. The studies move from the fine focus of what can now be seen as technological and methodological questions (turn-taking; meaning-making; observational study) to a comparative emphasis cultural sensitivity in chat and in real-life talk; chat as reflective of real-life discourses; chat in comparison to natural conversation to the "postulatory" emphasis of much broader questions (chat as a useful area for new conversational research theory; chat as a new universal language). My own preliminary thinking indicated a three part study program, moving from existing linguistic-based observational and analytical methods, to an empirical evidence-founded description of actual online "talk" practice, and so to a deeper and richer set of hypotheses relating to online "chat" practices and behaviours. The study has thus begun the first stage of a methodological design for the study of chat – and perhaps of its future technologisations. The ODAM or Online Discourse Analysis Method proposed at the outset has evolved across the seven constitutive Case Studies:
5.3 Research Questions and answers
Having revealed them both a tendency towards community-specific chat behaviours and at least the foundations for "chat universals", it is time to revisit the research questions which orginally drove this project. How have they contriubted to, or contrained the findings? The five initial focus areas for this study were as follows:
Added to these mixed and incommensurable questions were an equally multi-level listing of my then-current assumptions on online communication:

Species of Thailand
Yellow-rumped flycatcher
Binomial name: Ficedula zanthopygia, Arthur Hay, A.K.A. Viscount Walden, 1845
The Yellow-rumped Flycatcher, Korean Flycatcher or Tricolor Flycatcher (Ficedula zanthopygia) is a species of flycatcher found in Asia. A distinctive species with almost no look-alike other than the Narcissus Flycatcher. It breeds in eastern Asia including parts of Mongolia, Transbaikal, southern China, Korea and western Japan. They winter in parts of the Malay Peninsula and South Asia.
In all plumages the yellow rump is distinctive. The white supercilium of the male is distinctive, separating it from the Narcissus Flycatcher and the Chinese Flycatcher. Females and first year males are olive grey above with blackish tail.
Hartert (1910) treated this as a part of the narcissina group. Some individuals with yellow supercilium have been considered as hybrids with the Narcissus Flycatcher. Included in this species complex was the species called Elise's Flycatcher, usually treated as a subspecies of the Narcissus Flycatcher. Both elisae and zanthopygia have been observed to breed separately in the same area of oak forest near Peking strengthening the case for their distinctness. There are also clear call and morphological difference between the two.
The genus Muscicapa has been noted to have been polyphyletic and is still in the process of being resolved although the genus Ficedula is now considered monophyletic with their origins in east Asia, with diversification following climate changes in the Pliocene.
The breeding area of the species is in Eastern Asia. North Korea and China. The nesting in Xiaoxingan region is mainly in May and June. They breed mainly in low valleys at the base of hills. The home range of a pair can be about 2000-5000 sq. m. The nest is built in about three to four days by the female alone. The cluctch is about 4-7 eggs which are incubated by the female for about 11–12 days. The adults forage within about 70 m of the nest to feed the chicks. The young fledge after 14–15 days. It was first noted to winter in central India in 1989, it has since been found to winter in southwestern India and Sri Lanka.
A species of feather mite, Proterothrix megacaula has been described as an ectoparasite of this bird.

Top 10 Potential Surprise Entrants in the 2018 Royal RumbleThese are all speculation choices they may or maynot show up, but these are 10 names to pay attention to.
The Top Ten
This looks to be likely considering well she's already signed a deal, but the bigger question is are they actually going to book her to win? - htoutlaws2012
This is all likely the male NXT representative to probably get a big pop from the crowd that we remember in WWE as the chosen one. - htoutlaws2012
Like Trish you can't possibly misplaced Lita who also was big around the time. This fearless one can probably still go as well maybe not win, but expect the unexpected right? - htoutlaws2012
Its been quite awhile since last we seen Jeff, and he may be all heeled up by now which means what direction are they gonna put him in. Personally its time for Brother Nero to comeback. - htoutlaws2012
To me nobody has accomplished bigger in the field of divas there was before Sasha, Bayley, and others Beth Phoenix was a force to be reckoned with. She could probably still go for being a too soon hall of famer. - htoutlaws2012
This one I'm not sure if it will actually happen, but its ECW land, and to me give em somebody, an ECW legend why not you gave them Bubba Ray in 2015, and that was awesome now let's give them Dreamer why don't we? - htoutlaws2012
To me you don't have a first ever diva royal rumble without having one of the two biggest during the attitude era that being the highly popular choice Trish Stratus. To me if she appears on Raw 25 then yes she could also likely be in the royal rumble. - htoutlaws2012
Another option to jump in the rumble as a surprise entrant, and sure I guess this may work. - htoutlaws2012
Last time he would appeared in the ring was about 6 years ago the 2012 rumble which was full of surprises when she did the unthinkable. I would be stunned what Kharma would look like now as that dominant force. - htoutlaws2012
This one might be a longshot from the rest of them, but he also has signed a deal with WWE, and yet I can't see this one working because I'm not sure if people realize he is Prince Puma from Lucha Underground. - htoutlaws2012

Innumeracy at the CitizenMonday, February 5th, 2007
Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in /home/billpose/public_html/wp/wp-includes/functions-formatting.php on line 76
For a scientist, Prince George Citizen columnist Todd Whitcombe doesn't seem to be too good with numbers. Two recent columns contain numbers that are either just plain wrong or seriously misleading. The first was his column of October 30, 2006, in which he wrote:
…since 9/11, more than 150,000 American citizens have been shot to death by hand guns within the United States by American citizens."
I don't know where he got this figure, but the US Department of Justice tells a different story. According to their statistics, the total homicide rate since 2000 is a little below 6 per 100,000, for a total of approximately 18,000 homicides per year. Over five years, that comes to 90,000. By no means all homicides were committed with handguns, nor were all of those involved US citizens. I can't find any statistics on the percentage that involve US citizens, but the DOJ charts show that only about 50% of homicides involve handguns. In other words, since 9/11, the number of killings with handguns in the United States has been approximately 45,000, less than a third of the figure that Todd gives. Moreover, killings using handguns peaked in 1993 and have declined significantly since then according to .
The second is in his column of February 5, 2007, where he states:
The annual salary for a private is US$15,282, not including bonuses and allowances.
and claims that this is not quite minimum wage. Well, if you take the figure of US$15,282 and divide it by 2000 hours per year you get US$7.64 per hour, which is a little above the current federal minimum wage of US$7.25/hour as well as all state minimum wages. What is really misleading, though, is his dismissing the "bonuses and allowances".
It is reasonable to exclude bonuses unless everyone gets them, but "allowances" are another matter. According to the US Department of Defence, at the lowest possible rank and time in service a soldier receives basic pay of US$1203.90/month, which is US$14,446.80/year. In addition, all enlisted men receive a meal allowance of US$279.88/month, which is US$3358.56 per year. Privates normally live on base, in housing provided at no cost by the military. If they live off base, they receive a housing allowance. The amount varies considerably depending on the cost of housing in the area, but it is substantial, on the order of US$800 or US$900 per month, that is, roughly US$10,000 per year. An additional factor is that most allowances are not taxable.
This calculator allows you to compute the approximate equivalent annual salary for various ranks, times in service and so forth. At the lowest pay grade (E1 with less than one year in service), a soldier living in an average location in the continental US receives total compensation equivalent to a civilian salary of US$2,657.74/month or US$31,892.88/year. That comes to US$15.95 per hour, more than double the minimum wage. That may not be a princely salary, or adequate compensation for the risks of serving in Iraq, but it is a lot more than Todd would have us believe.

To round out this four-part series, we'll discuss two important and often misunderstood aspects of HIPAA compliance in 2015: the requirements of the Breach Notification Rule (BNR) and the tiered penalty structure of the Enforcement Rule.
The earlier installments of this series can be read here:
HIPAA Compliance in 2015, Part I: Why Does My Organization Need to Become HIPAA-Compliant?
HIPAA Compliance in 2015, Part II: How Does My Organization Comply with the Security Rule?
HIPAA Compliance in 2015, Part III: How Does My Organization Comply with the Privacy Rule?
These posts demonstrate the importance of integrating HIPAA compliance into your existing IT security program, and specifically address compliance with the requirements and nuances of HIPAA's separate-but-related Security and Privacy Rules.
Breach Notification Rule
The Breach Notification Rule (BNR) was one of the most impacted aspects of HIPAA with the passage of the Final Omnibus Rule. Prior to the Omnibus Rule, the BNR defined a breach as an acquisition, access, use or disclosure of PHI that compromises the security or privacy of the PHI which involves a significant risk of financial, reputation or other harm. This was referred to as the "harm standard," and it means that an unauthorized disclosure of PHI is only considered to be a breach if harm to individuals can be shown.
This standard was tipped on its head.
Now, a breach is defined as "an acquisition, access, use or disclosure of protected health information in a manner not permitted under [the Privacy Rule] is presumed to be a breach unless the covered entity or business associate, as applicable, demonstrates that there is a low probability that the protected health information has been compromised." So, any authorized disclosure will be considered to be a breach by default, and the onus is on the covered entity or business associate to prove otherwise. The Omnibus Rule effectively reversed the burden of proof that governs HIPAA breaches.
The practical effect of the BNR change is the creation of more objective standard that can be more uniformly applied. It also reduces the ability of covered entities to be creative in their interpretation of "harm," and draws a brighter line between a breach and a non-breach.
Furthermore, the Omnibus Rule states that the probability of compromise should be based upon a risk assessment that addresses the following factors:
- The unauthorized person who used the protected health information or to whom the disclosure was made. Things to consider:
- Does the recipient have an obligation to protect PHI, or was the disclosure made to another entity subject to HIPAA?
- Is the recipient able to combine its own information to re-identify the disclosed data?
- The nature and extent of the protected health information involved, including the types of identifiers and the likelihood of re-identification. Things to consider:
- How sensitive was the information breached?
- How likely is it that the data can be used to identify an individual and thus be used improperly?
- Can the data be linked with other information, thereby re-identifying it?
- Whether the protected information was actually acquired or viewed. Things to consider:
- Given the circumstances, was there an opportunity for someone to access, use, transfer or view the data?
- The extent to which the risk to the protected health information has been mitigated. Things to consider:
- What's been done to ensure the potential harm caused by disclosing the data is mitigated, such as through a confidentiality agreement, assurances the disclosed data will be destroyed or hasn't been viewed/accessed?
Evaluating these factors after a potential breach will begin to provide an organization with information needed to gauge the probability of data compromise.
Breach Exceptions
Yes, the rule does have exceptions. If a covered entity or business associate can prove one of the following scenarios, then breach notification will not be triggered:
- Any unintentional acquisition, access or use of protected health information by a workforce member or person acting under the authority of a covered entity or a business associate, if such acquisition, access or use was made in good faith and within the scope of authority and does not result in further use or disclosure in a manner not permitted the Privacy Rule.
- Any inadvertent disclosure by a person who is authorized to access protected health information at a covered entity, a business associate to another person authorized to access protected health information at the same covered entity or business associate, or an organized health care arrangement in which the covered entity participates, and the information received as a result of such disclosure, is not further used or disclosed in a manner not permitted under the Privacy Rule.
- A disclosure of protected health information where a covered entity or business associate has a good faith belief that an unauthorized person to whom the disclosure was made would not reasonably have been able to retain such information. Example from HHS include: A covered entity, due to a lack of reasonable safeguards, sends a number of explanations of benefits (EOBs) to the wrong individuals. A few of the EOBs are returned by the post office, unopened and marked as undeliverable. In these circumstances, the covered entity can conclude that the improper addressees could not reasonably have retained the information. The EOBs that were not returned as undeliverable,
Breach Notification Requirements and Obligations
When a disclosure of data has been deemed a breach under the BNR, several things must be done. Notice has to be sent to the individuals effected, the Secretary of HHS and potentially the media. The notice has to have specific information in it, and must be sent according to a strict timeline.
A breach is deemed discovered by a covered entity or a business associated if "any person, other than the individual committing the breach, that is an employee, officer or other agent of such entity or associate" knows or should reasonably have known of the breach.
|Notice To Individuals: A covered entity shall, following the discovery of a breach of unsecured protected health information, notify each individual whose unsecured protected health information has been, or is reasonably believed by the covered entity to have been, accessed, acquired, used or disclosed as a result of such breach.
|A covered entity shall provide the notification required by paragraph (a) of this section without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery of a breach.
|· A brief description of what happened, including the date of the breach and the date of the discovery of the breach, if known.
· A description of the types of unsecured protected health information that were involved in the breach, such as whether full name, social security number, date of birth, home address, account number, diagnosis, disability code or other types of information were involved).
· Any steps individuals should take to protect themselves from potential harm resulting from the breach.
· A brief description of what the covered entity involved is doing to investigate the breach, mitigate harm to individuals and to protect against any further breaches.
· Contact procedures for individuals to ask questions or learn additional information, which shall include a toll-free telephone number, an e-mail address, website or postal address.
|Form of Notice
|· Written notice via first class mail to the individual's last known address, via email or to next of kin/personal representative if the individual is dead.
· Substitute notice if written notice is not possible. If less than 10 people, then telephone or other alternative means can be used. If more than 10 people, then a posting on the website of the breached organization or notice in a major print or broadcast media in geographic areas where the individuals likely reside for at least 90 days, including a toll free number for individuals to learn if their data was breached.
· If notice is urgent, notice may be provided via telephone, in conjunction with a written notice.
|Notice To the Media: For a breach of unsecured protected health information involving more than 500 residents of a state or jurisdiction, a covered entity shall, following the discovery of the breach as provided in § 164.404(a)(2), notify prominent media outlets serving the state or jurisdiction.
|· A covered entity shall provide the notification required without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery of a breach.
|· Same requirements as individual notice.
|Notice To the Secretary: A covered entity shall, following the discovery of a breach of unsecured protected health information, notify the secretary of HHS.
|500+ Individuals
|For breaches of unsecured protected health information involving 500 or more individuals, a covered entity shall, except as provided in § 164.412 (law enforcement delay), provide the notification to the secretary contemporaneously with the notice required by § 164.404(a) and in the manner specified on the HHS website.
|-500 Individuals
|For breaches of unsecured protected health information involving less than 500 individuals, a covered entity shall maintain a log or other documentation of such breaches and, not later than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, provide the notification to the secretary of the breaches discovered during the preceding calendar year, in the manner specified on the HHS website.
Business Associates must notify the covered entity when it discovers a breach, without unreasonable delay but no later than 60 days from discovery. Business Associates also have to notify the CE of the identities of the individuals affected, or believed to have been affected, by the breach. The CE, in turn, will notify the individuals. Business Associates also have to provide CEs with information that the CE is required to provide to the individual in their written notices. BAs may be responsible for notifying the individuals directly if doing so is part of the Business Associates Agreement.
Enforcement Rule
Prior to the Final Rule, it was generally held that HIPAA had no enforcement "teeth." The Final Omnibus Rule changed this sentiment, and not only did it add teeth, but it filed those teeth to sharp points.
Nowadays, a non-compliant organization faces a four-tiered penalty structure, whereby fines are calculated to be commensurate with the significance of the non-compliant act(s). Additionally, criminal liability exists for a person who knowingly discloses health information, ranging from a $50,000 fine and/or up to a year in prison to a $250,000 fine and/or up to 10 years in prison.
Here's how the tiered system breaks down:
Tier 1: Violations that the entity did not realize it made; $100 – $50,000 per violation with a $1.5 million annual cap.
Tier 2: Violations made by reasonable cause; $1,000 to $50,000 per violation with an annual cap of $1.5 million.
Tier 3: Violations made by willful neglect, but that were corrected; $10,000 to $50,000 per violation with a $1.5 million annual cap.
Tier 4: Violations made by reason of willful neglect but that were not corrected; $50,000 per violation with an annual cap of $1.5 million.
It's not hard to find recent evidence of several million dollar HIPAA fines being handed down. The government is taking HIPAA compliance very seriously, and it isn't afraid to whack you with a huge penalty. It's evident that the cost of becoming compliant is substantially exceeded by the costs of non-compliance. If nothing else, HIPAA compliance is just a smart business decision.
In Summary
This series was designed to provide readers with a understanding of what HIPAA compliance means in 2015, why it's important and how you can begin a HIPAA compliance program. Please stay tuned for more HIPAA-related information, thoughts, opinions, interpretations and updates. But for now, contact Lunarline … before it's too late.

"Gingham" comes from the Malayan word genggang, or "striped." The way we identify gingham, as being a contrasting-check shirt, was not the way in which the fabric was originally known. True gingham is distinguished primarily for being a "dyed in the yarn" fabric, meaning the yarn is dyed before it is woven.
Gingham is a type of checkered plaid. the pattern may vary from color, but the checkers are all square. buffalo plaid is the casual name for a larger, square checkered plaid of two thread colors, one of which is black. Plaid/tartan is a woven fabric where the dyed threads are different colors and used to make stripes.
Gingham is a medium-weight balanced plain-woven fabric made from dyed cotton or cotton-blend yarn. It is made of carded, medium or fine yarns, where the colouring is on the warp yarns and always along the grain (weft).
The truth is that gingham does not mean check or checked, it actually means striped. But, when you're dealing with a fabric that's over five hundred years old... naturally some things do get lost in translation. "Gingham" comes from the Malayan word genggang, or "striped." The way we identify gingham, as being a contrasting-check shirt, was not the way in which the fabric was originally known. True gingham is distinguished primarily for being a "dyed in the yarn" fabric, meaning the yarn is dyed before it is woven. Secondly, gingham is marked by having the colored yarns (the warp) going against the uncolored yarns (the weft), to create a lightweight texture on both faces, meaning it's essentially reversible. The name originated in the southeast Asian countries where gingham is said to have been born.
The fabric balance between colored, and neutral yarns was seen as being perfect for striped shirts. As the fabric made its journey into the Western world, it retained its name, but lost its once signifying stripes.
In the eighteenth century, factories in Manchester, England, and the southern United States were in the midst of a brutal financial slump when they latched onto gingham production as a way to revive their struggling economies. Manufacturers (influenced by tartans and plaids), took the raw fabric and decided to forgo the stripes in favor of the UK's ever popular checked pattern. The fabric and its trademark checks became increasingly more prevalent until it was one of the most common and recognizable fabrics in the world, seen on Southern literary types, and London bankers alike.
Gingham forges on as an integral part of the spring, and summer style landscape; be it as a dress shirt, a pocket square, a table cloth... even that apron you toss on when you're barbecuing. The colored checks add a bold touch to a look that can take you damn near anywhere, but as your parents told you: don't forget where you (or your shirt fabric) came from.

I considered myself a "Little Saigonian" cause I practically grew up in the Westminster/Garden Grove area of Orange County. However, I have lived and worked all over Southern California.
I went to elementary in Orange County, attended Junior High in Moreno Valley, went to High School in Huntington Beach, Junior College in Costa Mesa and got my four year in San Diego. I started my career in San Diego then took a job offer out of college in Los Angeles. With every city, it's hard for any Southern Californian to say they have never been to Las Vegas or Mexico. It's hard to deny the fact that many people go to Tijuana to party cause the legal drinking age is 18 then they slowly graduate to Vegas when they hit 21.
I remember crossing the Tijuana border when I was just a child with my parents and siblings. It was my first "international" trip per se. I was a little fat kid with a bowl cut inspired by the Beatles and fashionably dressed by my mother. My young eyes laid upon the other side of the U.S. border with curiosity and amazement of all the street vendors along the road. The street vendors walked up and down the road with an array of toys, food, fruits and anything they thought they could sell. I remember asking my father, "Why don't they sell it in a store?" My father replied, "Not everyone in this world is fortunate enough to own a business. Sometimes people have to swallow their pride, so they have to find a way to provide for their family."
Those words stuck with me. It was the first thing I thought of when I crossed the border again in May 2005. I was on my end-of-the-school-year-business-club trip to Puerto Nuevo and Rosarito, Mexico; it was an annual trip organized by the business club going from our college campus to Baja, California. It was a party bus going to Puerto Nuevo for dinner at Rosa Mar then Rosarito's famous Papaz N Beers. There I was… an alcohol-thirsty-party-hungry college kid about to embark on a good time and taking full advantage of Mexico's lax drinking laws.
It wasn't a dilemma at the moment cause I was there to party and make memories I would probably not remember. I achieved what I came to do. We started drinking on the bus and everyone was completely obliterated when we got to Puerto Nuevo. I can't even recall anything from that night except a few things during dinner at Rosa Mar. However, after that, everything was a blur and the night's scenes could barely be made out. I was a college kid misbehaving, looking to get laid and looking for happiness in the moment, which is what happened.
It has been more than 11 years and close to 12 years of growing up under my belt. I look back on that day with a different perspective now. In hindsight, I wish I would have gotten to know a few locals instead of coming to town to take advantage of the cheap booze. I wish it was a day trip revolving around culture instead of a night of boozing it up. I wish I took a few moments to talk to some locals to understand how they put up with all tourists' shenanigans just to make a living. I am very aware of my own obnoxious behavior and I look back on some of the things I did with embarrassment.
I could use the excuse that I was young and dumb. However, the excuse could only go so far then it becomes tired since the list is long. However, I lived and I learned about that one night after some self-reflection. It really opens my eyes to a whole new perspective about life and an introspective about what kind of human being I would like to become. I know I made some progress throughout the years by shifting my travel agendas to focus on the culture within a city or country. In addition, the late night partying is no longer in the agenda. It has been replace with early morning cultural sight seeing and acting in a dignified way to understand the people in the city.
Happiness Is Common, But Human Dignity Is Not.

Lesley Davis was recently short-listed for a Lambda Literary Award. Here, she very generously answers some questions for UKLesfic on her award-nominated book Dark Wings Descending.
For those who haven't read the book, here's the blurb:
Goodness may appear in many forms; evil need only take one.
The Chicago PD Deviant Data Unit specializes in the dark and cruel aspects of criminal behavior. When a serial killer who leaves his victims oddly posed starts terrorizing the city, Detective Rafe Douglas leads the team tasked to find this sadistic killer. Still recovering from severe injuries sustained in the line of duty, Rafe's tenuous hold on what is real is further tested by someone who wants in on the case and won't take no for an answer.
Private Investigator Ashley Scott experiences the world through unveiled eyes. She alone can see that Hell's inhabitants are breaking free from their confines and are bringing their evil to Earth. She believes the killer isn't human and knows she has to convince Rafe there are more things happening in the Windy City than anyone could possibly realize. Only together can they solve the secrets revealed in the killer's brutal slayings.
Congratulations on being a Lambda finalist. Before telling us about the book, would you like to tell us a little about yourself and your background?
Thank you. I'm chuffed to pieces to have been nominated in the Best Lesbian Romance category with Dark Wings Descending. It's a fantastic honour.
I'm from the West Midlands of England, born and bred in the Black Country. I'm a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy films, and eat, sleep and breathe gaming. (Yes, just like Trent in Playing Passion's Game!) I play on all consoles but am a Nintendo diehard through and through. I suffer with M.E. so battle daily with the demons that particular illness carries. And in a former life I was a Mortgage Associate…. before the dark times, before redundancy!
How would you classify Dark Wings Descending?
I'd classify it as Supernatural Romance. With a crime story. And a cat, don't forget about the cat!
What attracted you to the story and these characters? What's the core appeal of the book for you?
I've written supernatural stories before with Cast A Wide Circle and A Touch of Alchemy (previously published works) but this time I didn't write of witches and magick. I wanted to go a different route and picked angels and demons. I hope the appeal is firstly the romance between two very strong women, each with their own place in a very crazy world. A world that gets crazier for Detective Rafe Douglas the more she gets exposed to it. But with Ashley Scott by her side she finds her true place. I also wanted to explore how someone would react if faced by things we're told exist but that we never truly see except with eyes of faith.
Did you enjoy writing from the perspective of one character in particular?
Rafe Douglas was great fun to create. She's my most sweary character to date, I think! But I figure, if I was surrounded by the badness of human criminality as well as demons from hell, I'd swear a lot too! I wanted her to fight against what she was being shown, after all, who wants the knowledge that hell exists and is bleeding out onto the earth? But when she accepts that she really has no choice any more she gains purpose and a new fight. I also liked she never held back what she thought either, especially if it was a sarcastic reply!
Did you set out to write a series when you began writing the book?
I had the idea for the sequel while I was writing Dark Wings Descending. Blythe Kent, Rafe's FBI friend, had a much bigger scene originally but it was edited down (which worked out better for me in the long run). I knew that the next story would be Blythe's and would be about her and a detective investigating child abductions. Dark Wings Descending was written to be followed by Blythe's tale, hence it being done immediately after. Pale Wings Protecting is due for release in October 2013 and I've got an idea for what comes after that one too. But I have some other stories to do before then…unless those characters start talking to me louder than the others!
The book has a great cover.
Sheri always does fantastic artwork for Bold Strokes. I love all the covers she has done for my books and this one was particularly eye-catching. I just wanted a cover alluding to wings and I got the most fantastic descending creature possible. The cover for Pale Wings Protecting is equally as striking and the books totally complement each other.
Would you like to tell us a bit about your other work?
I have three books published with Bold Strokes so far. Truth Behind The Mask tells the story of a city watched over by masked Sentinels. It's my version of a superhero story (I love my superheroes!) but these don't have special powers, just some very fancy gadgets and a vigilante spirit. Pagan and Erith are my romantic leads in that story. Playing Passion's Game features characters very close to my gaming heart! Trent is a passionate gamer who finds romance with the beautiful Juliet. I've been very pleased by how many people have told me they enjoyed the story so much they went out and brought a console because they wanted to play too! I feel my job is done there! Does my gaming heart proud! I'm working on a spin off to those characters at the moment. Dark Wings Descending is my third book and its spin off, as mentioned above, is out in October. I also have five other works (that were published elsewhere) that are now in the hands of BSB and I'll be re-working those as soon as I finish writing what I'm working on now and can put my games controller down! I also have numerous short stories in some of BSB's anthologies. Check out the BSB website or my own http://www.lesleydavisauthor.co.uk for further details of them all.

1988 Massacre
Speech by Strawn Stevenson on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the 1988 Massacre of the political prisoners in Iran, August 25
The UN now has a refutable evidence of the summary execution of more than thirty thousand supporters of the PMOI/MEK by the Iranian Regime in the summer of 1988. They have enough evidence to present to the international court who could not issue indictments against those responsible many of whom still hold senior positions of power inside the Iranian regime.
This atrocity must be ranked as a crime against humanity and one of the most horrific mass murders of the late 20th century.
The massacre victims were buried in mass graves and their fates were largely obfuscated by the regime. The Iranian regime has already begun destroying the mass graves of political prisoners secretly executed by the mullahs' security forces in the 1980's, despite a plea from the Amnesty International to halt the desecration and to let an investigation to take place.
On July 20, some of the relatives of those killed during the 1988 massacre visited one of the secret grave, sites in the city of Ahvaz only to find that the graves of their loved ones had been destroyed. This destruction is not only disrespectful to the dead, it also prevents a real investigation into the massacre from ever taking place by destroying evidence, which of course is precisely what the mullahs want.
Yet thirty years on from this barbaric crime, the international condemnation has been slow to emerge. Indeed the west still seems determined to overlook this perhaps the most outrageous barbarity since the end of World War II, so that it can continue to sign lucrative trade deals with Iran. It's a disgrace that there has been no prosecution of the criminals who orchestrated and carried out the gruesome 1988 murders.

This thesis describes various aspects of the development of a multi-disciplinary aero engine conceptual design tool, TERA2020 (Techno-economic, Environmental and Risk Assessment for 2020), based on an explicit algorithm that considers: engine performance, engine aerodynamic and mechanical design, aircraft design and performance, emissions prediction and environmental impact, engine and airframe noise, and production, maintenance and direct operating costs.
As part of this research effort, a newly-derived semi-empirical NOx correlation for modern rich-burn single-annular combustors is proposed. The development of a numerical methods library is also presented, including an improved gradient-based algorithm for solving non-linear equation systems. Common assumptions made in thermo-fluid modelling for gas turbines and their effect on caloric properties are investigated, while the impact of uncertainties on performance calculations and emissions predictions at aircraft system level is assessed. Furthermore, accuracy limitations in assessing novel engine core concepts as imposed by current practice in thermo-fluid modelling are identified.
The TERA2020 tool is used for quantifying the potential benefits from novel technologies for three low pressure spool turbofan architectures. The impact of failing to deliver specific component technologies is quantified, in terms of power plant noise and CO2 emissions. To address the need for higher engine thermal efficiency, TERA2020 is again utilised; benefits from the potential introduction of heat-exchanged cores in future aero engine designs are explored and a discussion on the main drivers that could support such initiatives is presented. Finally, an intercooled core and conventional core turbofan engine optimisation procedure using TERA2020 is presented. A back-to-back comparison between the two engine configurations is performed and fuel optimal designs for 2020 are proposed.
Whilst the detailed publications and the work carried out by the author, in a collaborative effort with other project partners, is presented in the main body of this thesis, it is important to note that this work is supported by 20 conference and journal papers.

Through this scheme a local basketball club based at the university have been able to recruit high performing basketball players to represent the club whilst studying at the university. Through time, these scholars have engaged in short term community outreach programmes as part of their scholorship agreement.
Sport has a unique ability to bring people together, we bought in to that from the start and worked with them through every stage of their life cycle on a pro-bono basis to develop a structure for the organisation that would enable them to scale what they were doing and increase the number of kids they were working with. We believed in what they were doing and believed we could help them make a difference. We helped them structure what they were doing into two distinct areas; The Victory Scholorship Programme and The eHOOPs Community Service Programme.
It was as a result of using scholar athletes to contribute to community sport outreach that an idea was born. Gareth Maguire, Dr Deirdre Brennan, both specialists in the fields of sports development and physical education identified a visionary approach to embed the sporting values of dedication, commitment, hard work and respect to inspire and educate young people at risk.
They came to us as USNI Sport having secured funding in the United States for two scholar athletes to do their MBAs at Ulster University and then to work directly with them in a sports outreach programme mentoring teenagers from a deprived area in Belfast.

Free Form Incident Light Fields
Computer Graphics Forum (Proceedings of EGSR 2008), Volume 27, Number 4, page 1293–1301 - 2008
This paper presents methods for photo-realistic rendering using strongly spatially variant illumination captured from real scenes. The illumination is captured along arbitrary paths in space using a high dynamic range, HDR, video camera system with position tracking. Light samples are rearranged into 4D incident light fields (ILF) suitable for direct use as illumination in renderings. Analysis of the captured data allows for estimation of the shape, position and spatial and angular properties of light sources in the scene. The estimated light sources can be extracted from the large 4D data set and handled separately to render scenes more efficiently and with higher quality. The ILF lighting can also be edited for detailed artistic control.

Traffic to Work or Home : How to check online
Google has made many things easy for us, and Google Map is the best way to navigate to any location you want. You can ask anyone to send his/her location, and you can use Google Map to navigate to that address. Well, Google can also tell you the travel time to reach your destination depending on current traffic situation. Let's learn how.
You don't need any specific application or computer. You can use Google Chrome browser on computer, Smartphone or tablet, but you need to be signed in with Google Account.
Traffic to Work
- Type this in Google Search "Traffic to Work"
- If you are doing it first time, Google will ask you where you work
- You can type the office building name or Address, and Click on Set As Work. Next time, when you type Traffic to work, Google won't ask your office address
- Once you click on Set as Work, Google will show you available route and travel time
- In the screenshot above, I have found 3 routes to reach my office. Clicking on each route will show the full direction
- You can also select whether you are going by Car, Bus or on foot to get the direction accordingly. In the image above, I have selected Car
- Google automatically put the Map Navigation link to the route that will take less time. So clicking on Direction will take you directly to Google Map, and you can navigate to your office
Traffic to Home
Traffic to home work the same way as Traffic to Work. At first you need to tell your home location/address, and Google will save it for the next time. So in future when you type Traffic to Home, it will show you the available route without asking any question as long as you are logged in with the same Google ID

My rental property makes $650 a month, but there were 4 things I had to do before I ever saw a dime
Courtesy Kelly Burch
- When I was shopping for my first house, I chose to buy a home that I knew would make a good rental later on.
- While renovating, I made choices that would be appealing to renters, even if they weren't my personal style.
- Then, I used a home equity loan to purchase a new, bigger home, while renting out my first.
- Read more personal finance coverage.
Four years ago, I was beginning the process of buying my first home with my husband. Today, I pay two mortgages: One on the beautiful, rural New Hampshire home that we live in, and another on that first home in a small city about an hour away, which we now rent out.In a short period of time, I've gone from lining other people's pockets with my rent money to turning a small profit on a rental of my own. Advertisement
1. Put emotions aside
My parents never owned a home. For 20 years, they rented the same house in a neighborhood that looked straight out of "Leave It To Beaver." My childhood on those streets - with wide sidewalks, towering maple trees, and beautiful Victorians - was idyllic.Still, I grew up thinking home ownership was out of reach for me because my parents were never homeowners.
When my husband and I started the process of buying a home, I was paralyzed by fear. I imagined everything that could go wrong and lead to financial ruin. In order to pursue home ownership, I had to make a mental switch and put those fears aside.
2. Choose a home wiselyThe budget for my first home was pretty low - about $120,000. My husband and I knew that with that budget, we were shopping for a "starter home" where we could live for less than five years. Advertisement
Still, we wanted to take advantage of being in the real-estate market long-term. We decided to try to find a house that would make a good rental after we outgrew it. That meant actively shopping with the rental market in mind.
We chose to buy in a town that had an active and competitive rental market. We narrowed our location further to a good school district that we believed would attract quality tenants. Then, we chose a small house with a simple layout that would be easy to manage as landlords.When we first toured the house (which is 900 square feet), I immediately ruled it out as too small. However, my husband pointed out that it checked all our boxes for a great rental property in the long-term. I remembered that was our main priority in choosing a home. Advertisement
I was willing to buy a home that was smaller than ideal in order to reach our long-term goal of having a good rental, so we put in an offer.
3. Renovate for durability, not personalization
The house we bought was a fixer-upper. Although it was structurally sound, everything needed updating. Over the three years that we lived there, we replaced the walls, ceilings, floors, and windows. We gutted the bathroom and kitchen, and improved the yard.While we were renovating, we didn't choose styles that fit our personal tastes. Instead, we focused primarily on materials that would hold up long-term but were cheap enough to replace through rental wear and tear. Advertisement
We also styled our renovations with renting in mind, choosing styles that were widely appealing. We put light colors on the walls, cabinets, and trims even though we personally prefer bold shades. All of this meant that when it came time to rent out our home, it appealed to a wide swath of renters.
4. Tap into home equityLast year we had a second child and knew that we had officially outgrown our starter house. We wanted to move into a bigger home and keep ours to rent, but we didn't have a down payment saved for a new house. Advertisement
Most people assume they have to sell in order to use the equity in their first home as a down payment on a new house. However, I made a call to the bank and realized I could take out a home equity loan to use as a down payment. This allowed us to tap into our equity while keeping our asset (the home).Each month, we pay $630 on the mortgage on the first house and $270 on the home equity loan for a total of $900, and we rent out the house for $1,550 - a profit of $650. Meanwhile, we live in a much bigger home in a nicer area and pay $1,450 to cover our mortgage. Advertisement
Today, my husband and I are enjoying our new home. We love renovating it with only ourselves in mind, and we know the small sacrifices we made with our first home to work toward the goal of becoming landlords were well worth it.

Looking Forward: 5LCBWDAY7
Since I did not participate in the Knitting and Crochet Blog Week last year, I have no project aspirations to look back upon. But I have plenty of things the look forward to!
My hope is that in a year from now, I will be a much more accomplished knitter. I hope I will continue taking risks and trying new techniques. I also hope that in a few months, I will be able to say that I have completed (since I have even yet to start) the Christmas stocking for my first child. I want to knit one for each of our kiddos.
For crocheting, and I do hope this gets done sooner than one year from now, I'd like to finish my Hexagon blanket. Because really, it's been over two years since I started it, and that's just sad. It's so pretty, and it's be nice to have it done, so that I never have to do it again. Hahah. I wish I were joking. So many ends to weave in!!!!
Additionally, since this blog is partially about my etsy shop, I'd like to have more consistent new-creations for the shop. I love the challenge of making new things and writing new patterns, and I really want to keep the items in the shop fresh. New stuff is fun stuff.
Some other projects I'd like to have under my belt:
-More knitted socks! I want to feel comfortable making them. Like, "oh I'll just make some socks no big deal" comfortable. Not "oh I'll make some socks and freak out half way through the first sock and have a nervous breakdown about the type of heel I'm going to put on it." That's where I'm at right now.
-A knitted sweater for me. I don't know what kind. I don't know when. I just feel like it is something that ought to happen.
-And I am certain that my babu will inspire me in ways I cannot predict, so hopefully in a year from now, I'll be telling you all about the things I made that my 8-month-old gets the most use out of.
As far as blogging goes, I have absolutely no goals for my blog. I have no idea where my life will take me in this next year: whether blogging will still be a welcome output for creative ramblings, or it will have become more of a chore than a joy. I don't want to plan and push and set limits and goals for this derpy blog, I'd rather see what it becomes as time goes on.

Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) is supporting 50 of the most exciting young talented British athletes through SportsAid this year. RBC, one of the largest banks in the world and a partner of the charity since 2014, provides the next generation of sports stars with financial assistance, recognition and personal development opportunities.
The partnership sees the athletes receive an annual award of £1,000 to contribute towards costs such as travel, accommodation and equipment. The athletes being supported by RBC in 2019 stretch across 34 sporting disciplines. They are among the country's brightest prospects having been nominated to SportsAid by their sport's national governing bodies.
One of the most integral aspects of the partnership is the buddy scheme where award recipients are paired with RBC employees. They become an impartial point of contact who follow the progress of the athletes - supporting them and passing on news of their achievements - while imparting important life-skills for the young sports stars to help them in their athletic careers and beyond.
Dave Thomas, CEO, RBC Europe, said: "We have been working with SportsAid for a number of years and we are very conscious of the challenges facing the athletes - the time commitments they make, trying to balance out school work with their sporting careers, being away from their families and the different pressures they feel around competitions and injuries.
"Hopefully we're able to help the athletes out with financial support as Royal Bank of Canada continue our partnership with the charity. The buddy scheme has also been hugely beneficial to both athletes and RBC staff - including me. None of us have the extreme talents that the athletes do in their chosen sports but we are able to act as a sounding board!"
RBC staff are excellent fundraisers and have generated more than £330,000 through the activities they've undertaken for SportsAid. Since the partnership began five years ago, they have regularly participated in challenge events and represented the charity in large numbers at the Virgin Money London Marathon, Prudential RideLondon, Tough Mudder and the Royal Parks Half, presented by RBC.
Tim Lawler, SportsAid's Chief Executive, commented: "We are entering the sixth year of our partnership with RBC and we really do feel this is a joint venture where we have an understanding of what each other is trying to achieve. This is a flagship partnership for us in many ways – it has energy, it has enthusiasm and it is evolving. It is definitely having the impact we always hoped it would."
SportsAid was also the chosen charity partner for RBC Ride for the Kids in June 2018 as 47 riders, all of mixed abilities, completed the two-day cycle from London to Bruges. The team covered 184 miles each, equating to 8,648 collectively, and raised more than £60,000 as the ride helped to launch the return of the #MyMiles Challenge for SportsAid Week 2018. The ride will be dedicated to SportsAid in 2019 as over 60 riders head to Brussels.
RBC has enjoyed a number of success stories throughout the years with double Paralympic champion Georgie Hermitage, Commonwealth gold medallist Reuben Arthur and Manchester City Women's striker Lauren Hemp all previously supported by the bank. The current cohort includes 200m sprinter Shannon Hylton, footballer Maya Le Tissier, gymnast Halle Hilton and para equestrian star Ilse Owen.
"The most important aspect of the support I received from SportsAid and RBC was how they see you as a person who has talent, rather than just being an athlete who competes well," said Reuben. "Yes, you do receive financial support and yes, you are recognised for your athletic prowess, but once you get involved in this set-up, you meet people who are passionate about helping you as a young person."
RBC supports a broad range of community initiatives through donations, sponsorships and employee volunteer activities, with annual European initiatives including RBC Race for the Kids, the Royal Parks Half, Masterpiece and the Old Vic.

purins erik - Causes Of Gout
Causes Of Gout
Gout is a painful disease of the joints, which usually affects the big toe first in most people. It is caused by too much uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is formed by the breakdown of chemicals called purines, which can lead to high levels of uric acid and cause many problems such as joint swelling and kidney stones. Normally the uric acid is dissolved in the blood and passes out via the kidneys into the urine but if this does not occur it can build up in the body and cause the crystals to deposit and cause gout.

Goutezol Gout Treatment
I've been suffering from gout for over 3 years. I tried many different remedies. After taking your product for 20 days I felt the difference. I'm ordering 3 more bottles to make sure I'm not going to have attack any time soon.
" Bill, FL
It also reached the well-known and accepted conclusion that hypertension (high blood pressure) and obesity are risk factors for gout. And one other very different conclusion from the conventional wisdom about purines -- purine intake, with the exception of alcohol, was NOT associated with a risk of gout.
He discovered his "cherry cure" by accident. One day, he ate a large bowl of cherries and the next day, his foot pain was gone. He found that as long as he ate the cherries every day, his gout was controlled.
However, restricting purines in your diet is not difficult, so it is still worth doing. The conventional wisdom may be correct. Uric acid level tests should tell if a low purine diet works for you.
Gout is a form of arthritis caused by high levels of uric acid in the blood, tissues, and urine. The uric acid can form crystals which collect in joints such as the big toe. In fact, your big toe can become so painful and swollen that even the weight of a bedsheet can be agonizing.
Cherry juice or cherries is also good for preventing gout flares. So eat at least a half pound of these fruits to better manage your gout. It does not matter what kind of cherries you eat. All cherries are beneficial in gout cases. Cherry juice is also believed to be very good in relieving some of the gout symptoms, although this has not been proven yet. So as you can see, this tiny fruit can do a world of good in your gout case. There are also some other changes that you have to make if suffering from gout. Besides the dietary modification that you should do, some lifestyle changes must be done as well.
It's best to eat the cherries or drink the cherry juice between meals. So why do cherries work for some people with gout? Because gout destroys the collagen that is needed to form connective tissue and cherries stop that destruction. Cherries also neutralize uric acid and have anti-inflammatory properties.
Almost 90% of gout victims are men over thirty years old. But women can also suffer from gout, especially if they take certain medications such as blood pressure drugs. Most women who suffer from gout are 60 years or older.
Red and black cherries - fresh, frozen or canned - have been used successfully to treat gout. Drinking several tablespoons of black cherry juice daily may produce the same effect.
Low carbohydrate diets, especially when very protein rich and with inadequate water intake can also cause gout. A family history of gout may also predispose a person towards getting it.
There are other changes you can make to your diet, too. For example, eating a cup of strawberries may help to control gout. You should also drink plenty of water to help flush the uric acid out of your body. Six to eight 8-ounce glasses a day is probably best.
1,000 MG PLUS DOSES If you wish to try Vitamin C for gout in doses over 1,000 mg as part of a natural gout remedy discuss it with your doctor or a qualified naturopathic doctor. The 500 mg level is below the British government's 1,000 mg (1 gram) recommended upper safety level safety limit for Vitamin C. It is half of the maximum amount (1,000 mg) in a Vitamin C tablet sold in the U.S. and many other countries.
0.5 mg/dL is a useful reduction but for most people probably not a natural remedy for gout, although the 0.5 mg/dL figure is an average and some participants did better. But a 0.5mg/dL reduction will not be enough to reduce uric acid below the 6.0 mg/dL level at which the MSU crystals may dissolve. However, when combined with other vitamins for gout, a low purine diet and other natural remedies for gout, it could be.
VITAMIN C AS A GOUT PREVENTOR If 500 mg daily of Vitamin C can reduce uric acid levels, then Vitamin C ought to act as a preventative gout vitamin too. A Taiwan study of males in the late 1990's examined the weight, diet and lifestyles of gout and non-gout sufferers in Taiwan. It concluded that Vitamin C, folic acid (folate) and fibre were protective against gout.
If gout isn't properly controlled, it can cause kidney stones and even more serious kidney disease. Gout is also associated with high blood pressure, diabetes, and atherosclerosis.
THE CAUTION Rapid changes in uric acid levels can trigger a gout attack. This rapid change can be brought about by many factors in addition to possibly mega doses of Vitamin C and by drugs such as probenecid and sulfinpyrazone. People who are susceptible to gout must consider these rapid changes.
Many other people - some of whom have written to Prevention magazine - have also found relief by adding cherries to their diets. Supposedly, if you already have crippling gout or if you feel a gout attack coming on, you should eat 15 to 30 cherries a day at first to get your gout under control, then 6 to 10 cherries a day after that to keep the gout away.
There are many reason that can cause a gout. The main risk factor in a gout case is the levels of uric acid that one has in his/ her body. This increased levels can be cause by many factors, and diet is one of those.
You should always consult a doctor for treatment of gout. But some of the drugs used for gout - such as allopurinol, colchicine, indomethacin, and prednisone - can cause serious side effects.
Some genetic diseases affect the breakdown of uric acid and also cause it to build up. Other causes include exposure to lead, foods high animal protein, some medications, obesity, excess alcohol or foods rich in purines. Some foods that cause gout are organ meats such as liver, brain and kidneys. Other foods include herring, anchovies, peas and dried beans. Alcohol affects the elimination of uric acid especially when taken in excess.
In the 2005 study by how much did 500 mg of Vitamin C reduce their uric acid level? It found an average, across all participants, reduction of about 10% (0.5 mg/dL). In addition, reductions were larger among participants who had higher levels of uric acid at the start of the study. Participants took the 500 mg daily level for two months. Those who were given a placebo (i.e. not Vitamin C) showed a slight increase in uric acid levels.

Goutezol Gout Relief
My big toe was in horrible pain, so i went to emergency room. Dr diagnosed gout in my foot and gave me pain killers. I did some googling and found goutezol. I like that it's natural with no chemicals in it. Ive been taking it for about 6 months and so far no attack, and my doc confirmed lower uric acid in my blood. thank you!
" Jeff, NY
Medications such as diuretics (which help the kidney eliminate more urine) or aspirin cause gout. And people who have had an organ transplant are prone to gout. Patients on numerous medicines should talk to their healthcare provider to see if there are interactions between medicine and if an alternate drug may help. The common vitamin niacin can also trigger gout.
One complicating factor is that elusive fact that most people with hyperuricemia (excess uric acid)do not get gout. Another is that some people with normal uric acid levels do.
Some high-purine foods are meats, especially organ meats, gravies, herring, mussels, sardines, fish, and alcohol. At least one study suggests that high-purine foods such as beans, peas, mushrooms, spinach and cauliflower do not make gout worse. But you should consult your doctor for the latest information and recommendations.
Such a rapid change concerned the authors of one study in the 1970's who had recorded that mega doses of Vitamin C (4,000 mg and 8,000 mg daily) reduced uric acid levels significantly, and by more than in the 2005 study. However, as far as Vitamin C induced changes in uric acid levels is concerned, this triggering has not been reported in any study.
So, as you can see, medication is not the only way to go if suffering from a gout. Some people even say that drugs are not so very useful in gout cases. Because gout is a condition that has long lasting effects, other "treatments " must be used besides medication.
Important Disclaimer: This information is presented for educational purposes only. This isn't medical advice and it's not a substitute for any advice or treatment from your physician. You should always see your doctor before starting any new diet plan for losing weight or controlling gout.
If you take Vitamin C for gout as a dietary supplement, remember that it is reckoned to work better in a product that contains added citrus bioflavonoids. In addition, because it is excreted quickly, take it twice daily. To avoid excess acidity (lower pH) also take alkalizing minerals, or another alkalizing agent recommended by your doctor.
Previously it has been thought that the amount needed was at least 4,000 mg (4 grams) daily. For example, Dr. Robert Atkins in his book " Vita Nutrient Solutions," recommended 5,000 -10,000 mg as part of his formula natural remedy for gout.

A few studies over the past 30 years have concluded that Vitamin C will reduce the uric acid level. They have differed in the amount of Vitamin C given to study participants. A U.S. study of 184 non-smokers, published in 2005, concluded that the amount required to achieve a serum (blood) uric acid level reduction was 500 mg daily. (The Vitamin C was taken as a supplement). This is not a mega dose.
Certain types of foods have in their composition purine. These compounds are known to rise the levels of uric acid. In turn, uric acid is what cause a gout. So, if you stop eating such foods, or at least try to reduce the number, then you can prevent gout attacks. Here is a list of foods that are high in purine, thus leading to gout: bouillon, brains, goose, sardines, dried vegetables, shrimp, heart, liver and many others. These are just some of the foods to avoid if suffering form a gout, or if you are one of those people susceptible to a gout. Furthermore, alcohol is also known to do a lot of damage in gout cases. Try to avoid as much as possible drinking alcohol, especially beer, if you want to lower the number of gout flares. If you can avoid the purine foods and alcohol, you will surely feel a difference in the number of gout flares, as well as in the gout signs. Levels of uric acid can also be risen by sugar and fructose. So if you want to control your gout case, then try to avoid them as well.
Losing excess weight may also reduce uric acid levels, but it must be done gradually and under a doctor's supervision. Severe dieting or fasting can actually make your gout worse.
Many people also try to eliminate foods with high purine levels from their diets. Some of these foods may worsen gout by increasing your level of uric acid.
Should you take Vitamin C for gout? The answer is probably yes, but read on for a possibly relevant caution. Gout cures require that uric acid levels be reduced. Vitamins and drugs work in two ways to reduce uric acid levels. One is restricting its supply by inhibiting purine breakdown into uric acid, the other is improving uric acid's breakdown into the urine. Vitamin C is thought to be a uric acid excretory, not an inhibitor. Improving excretion may be more important than reducing production.
So you may want to discuss with your doctor if an alternative approach might work for you. An approach without the toxic side effects of gout drugs. One dietary approach is simply to eat cherries. In the 1950s, Dr. Ludwig Blau discovered that he could keep his gout away by eating a minimum of 6 cherries a day. It helped his crippling gout so much that he was actually able to get out of his wheelchair and start walking again.
