Cystic Fibrosis
OverviewThe name of the disease comes from the Latin words mucus "slime" and viscidus "tough". Cystic fibrosis - a systemic hereditary disease that affects all the organs that secrete mucus: bronchopulmonary system, pancreas, liver, sweat glands, salivary glands, intestinal cancer, sex glands. Cystic fibrosis is one of the most common hereditary diseases, but for many years the treatment of children with this diagnosis was not given sufficient attention. Only at the end of the twentieth century in Russia were established Russian and regional centers to fight cystic fibrosis. The basis of therapeutic care to patients is well-matched lifelong drug therapy, regular check-ups and hospital treatment during exacerbations.
The causes of the diseaseThe cause of pathological changes in cystic fibrosis is a mutation of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator. This protein regulates the transport of electrolytes (primarily chlorine) through the membrane of cells lining the ducts of exocrine glands. The mutation leads to disruption of the structure and function of the synthesized protein, resulting in a secret, secreted by these glands becomes too thick and viscous.
Symptoms of cystic fibrosisThe following basic form of cystic fibrosis:
- Mixed (pulmonary-intestinal, 75-80%);
- Bronchopulmonary (15-20%);
- Intestinal (5%).
In bronchopulmonary form cystic fibrosis has 1-2 year life of the child showing signs of respiratory tract lesions. In small and medium-sized bronchi accumulate a large amount of viscous mucus, decreases its separation.
Patients with obsessive worries, painful, paroxysmal cough with phlegm difficult to separate. When sharpening process and accession of bacterial infection develop recurrent bronchitis, pneumonia with protracted course, there is a rise in temperature to 38-39 degrees, cough and shortness of breath worse.
The clinical picture of the intestinal form of cystic fibrosis by the lack of enzymatic activity of the gastrointestinal tract, which is particularly evident after the transfer of children to artificial feeding or solid foods. Splitting and reduced absorption of nutrients in the intestine is dominated by putrefactive processes, accompanied by the accumulation of gases. Very frequent stools, daily volume of stool 28 times exceed the age limit. Bloating causes cramping abdominal pain.
Appetite in the first months of retained or even increased, but due to violations of the digestive processes in patients with rapidly growing malnutrition, polyhypovitaminosis.
In 10-15% of patients with cystic fibrosis seen in the first days of life in the form of intestinal (mekonievoy) obstruction. In this case your child has vomiting of bile, no stool, abdominal distension. After 12 days the state of the newborn getting worse: the skin dry and pale, the skin of the abdomen there is a pronounced vascular pattern, anxiety gives way to lethargy and weakness, picking up the symptoms of intoxication.
Regardless of the form of cystic fibrosis in many children, there is the syndrome of "salt of the child", resulting in the deposition of salt crystals on the face and armpits, the skin of the child salty "taste".
Diagnosis of cystic fibrosisIf you suspect a cystic fibrosis district pediatrician will refer you to the Russian or the regional center to combat cystic fibrosis.
For diagnosis of the disease must have four basic criteria: chronic bronchopulmonary process and bowel syndrome, cystic fibrosis cases in a family, a positive sweat test results. Sweat test is based on the determination of chloride concentration of sweat. A child with cystic fibrosis, the rate is usually higher than normal. However, be aware that a negative result can not rule out the disease by 100%.
If your child is diagnosed, the doctor will refer your family for genetic analysis. It is important not only to confirm the diagnosis, but also for prenatal diagnosis in subsequent pregnancies.
What you can do?If you notice your child has any of these symptoms, try as soon as possible to consult a pediatrician. The earlier the diagnosis, and therapy is initiated literate, the easier it will be the condition of your baby.
A very important role in the treatment of children with CF parents play. On the shoulders of mothers and fathers bear a great responsibility to care for a sick child. After treatment of the disease for life and requires scrupulous implementation of all recommendations of the physician. Only parents, being a child at any moment, can estimate the change in the state of the baby and the time to seek medical help.
The first signs of incipient deterioration are: lethargy, decreased appetite, fever, increased cough, change the color and quantity of sputum, stool marked disturbances (frequent, bold, unformed, offensive) appearance of abdominal pain. Exacerbation of the disease, usually require hospitalization.
What will help the doctor?Depending on the severity of the treatment can be conducted in a specialized hospital wards, day hospitals or at home.
Treatment of cystic fibrosis is complex and is aimed at thinning and removal of viscous mucus from the bronchi, the fight against infectious diseases of the lungs, the replacement of the missing pancreatic enzymes, multivitamin deficiency correction, dilution of bile. An important place in the treatment of broncho-pulmonary form of cystic fibrosis is kinesitherapy (a special set of exercises and breathing exercises aimed at the removal of phlegm). Exercises should be daily and lifetime.

The Manufacturers Association of Israel on Tuesday called on the government to implement a negative income tax (NIT) system "as soon as possible," in stark contrast to the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce's mid-month reiteration of its opposition to NIT.
The Manufacturers said an NIT system would cut poverty and save the economy NIS 9 billion yearly, and expressed hope that practical steps would begin soon "so that we will be able to free up budget sources already in 2007."
Negative income tax systems essentially subsidize low wages to encourage employment and reduce the number of working poor by giving different amounts of money to workers whose earnings are beneath a given salary threshold, such as NIS 5,000 monthly. Finance Minister Avraham Hirchson said he would unveil the Treasury's stand on NIT in the near future.
Raising the minimum wage would cost the economy about NIS 17b. annually, more than double the cost of a negative income tax system, estimated by manufacturers association economists to be NIS 8b., the group said.
"While negative income tax would go straight to the lowest wage earners only, raising the minimum wage would naturally have an influence on other employees and unintentionally lift the whole wage scale upward," the association explained.
Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce President Uriel Lynn, however, declared on October 16 that implementing a negative income tax system would be a "most dangerous step" and essentially act as another form of welfare allowance.
"This step, which depicts itself as a classic social step, is liable to be lamented for generations and weaken the will to go out to work," Lynn argued, advocating instead to limit reform to a tax reduction on low income workers only.
Most of the money given through an NIT system would go to "individuals who are in any event participating in the labor market. Instead of going out to full-time work, it is liable to encourage going out to part-time work," he said.
"We must not deepen and develop the [welfare] allowance culture in Israel, but rather aspire to [reach a situation in] which workers receive a fair wage and their net wage rises," he added.
Lynn estimated that an NIT system would cost NIS 2b. to NIS 3b., "against a very small benefit for the state."
The Bank of Israel reiterated its support for NIT on October 17, having concluded that such a system would have a positive - "even if small" - effect on employment, as opposed to other methods to alleviate poverty that reduce the incentive to work, countering Lynn's assertion to the contrary.
"Experience from a number of countries that operated a negative income tax program shows that they contributed significantly to decreasing the number of pour among families with workers and to reducing the intensity of poverty among those that remained poor," the central bank said.
An economic study indicated that bringing NIT to Israel would "significantly reduce poverty among working families" here as well, the Bank of Israel added.
In order to have an NIT system ready for implementation in 2008, a decision must be taken "in the near future," the central bank said, adding that ideally such a system would concentrate on families with children and at least one breadwinner and would - "at least at the outset" - provide a yearly supplement based on the past year's income.
Additionally, the supplement should be based on the higher income when both parents are working in order to prevent giving grants to low-income workers in high-income households - "which are the majority of low-income workers" - and to maintain the incentive of lower income earner to advance in his or her job, according to Bank of Israel economists.
The supplements should be paid directly from the state to the worker - not through the employer - in order to prevent a drop in wage enabling the employer to pocket the subsidy for himself, international experience has shown.
It would cost "a few tens of millions of [shekels]" annually to operate the required mechanism, including special assistance centers and advertisement, the central bank estimated.
The NIT system would not require full disclosure of all income and assets, which the Israel Tax Authority is not equipped to handle, the Bank of Israel said, adding that there was no need to condition the supplement on an examination of income on capital since "there are very few families with children whose incomes from work are low and whose incomes from property are significant."
There should also be a minimum threshold wage of NIS 1,000 monthly, the central bank said, advocating setting the maximum threshold at NIS 5,000 for families with one or two children and NIS 7,000 for those with three or more children. The maximum grants would come to NIS 500 per month for those earning NIS 3,500 with one or two children and NIS 900 for those earning NIS 4,000 with three or more children, according to the Bank of Israel's proposal.

Sounds like a no-brainer, right? Even if you understand the reasons for the increase in gas prices over the past couple years, you probably think it's high enough.
Despite some recent decreases in the price of crude, gas prices have barely budged. Surely gas isn't really worth more than $1.30 a liter (in Nova Scotia). Those gas companies are just getting rich at the consumer's expense. Right?
The truth is that the market price for gasoline doesn't begin to cover the true cost of its use. That $1.30 goes toward the cost of discovering, pumping, and refining the oil into gasoline, and then the cost of delivering the finished product to your local gas station, as well as any taxes (which can be considerable, depending on which country you live in).
But that $1.30 doesn't begin to cover the costs of climate change, various tax subsidies for oil companies, and even the long term health care costs resulting from air pollution. Depending on who's doing the calculation, those hidden costs could amount to as much as three or four times the market price that we pay for gasoline.
This is the problem with waiting for the market to solve our environmental problems; the true cost simply won't become apparent until many years in the future. These costs are generally referred to as externalities in economics lingo.
The classic case study is that of a factory which pollutes a nearby river. The costs of this pollution are not reflected in the firm's balance sheet, but the environmental damage is considerable for the town; some people die of sickness related to the pollution, and the cleanup is expensive. The market has no way to account for these external costs, so government regulation is necessary to ensure that the firm accounts for its own externalities, either by paying for cleanup or improving their standards so they no longer pollute the town's river.
So a carbon tax on gasoline like the one the Liberals are proposing would be an attempt to account for the externality, but we shouldn't fool ourselves into thinking that even a strident carbon tax will fully nullify the true cost of burning the stuff. I don't mean to be a broken record, but the only long term solution is to drastically cut back on our use of fossil fuels.

~ Where the Sun Will Never Set on Our liberty ~
HEAD OF THE SNAKE: How Obama Made Sure Hillary Was Not Indicted In Email Scandal
The corruption of the Obama administration continues to unravel...
In his most recent column, National Review's (Andrew) McCarthy argues that the decision to not indict Clinton was Obama's call — not the FBI's and not the Department of Justice's — as Obama used a pseudonymous email account to communicate with Clinton on her non-secure email account.
Two days after The New York Times broke the scandal about Clinton in March 2015, John Podesta — who was an adviser to the president and head of Clinton's campaign — emailed Clinton confidant and top State Department aide Cheryl Mills to tell her that the email exchanges between Obama and Clinton should not be disclosed, but "held" because of executive privilege.
Three days after Podesta's email, Obama lied on national television during an interview with CBS about the email scandal, saying that he learned about it "the same time everybody else learned it through news reports."
Obama's lie, unbeknownst to the public at the time, set off a series of panic-based reactions among his and Clinton's aides:
McCarthy notes that corrupt scheme concocted by the Obama administration "worked like a charm" since there was "no indictment, meaning no prosecution, meaning no disclosure of Clinton–Obama emails," and they would have gotten away with it, except...
November 8, 2016, did not go as planned.
Keep reading...
Everybody involved in this corruption has been named, except...him.
Why is that?

Jodi, I really hope when everything is said and done, he will finally be exposed, charged and indicted with every crime he has committed against our beautiful country, and, her people. We have endured so much, lost many nights sleep, been outraged & disgusted over and over again. The way I feel about him is, hell is too good for him.
The ONLY positive to come out of our VERY LONG 8 year nightmare with him is, getting to know all of you. We truly have become like a family!
If we they think 'they' protected Clinton, just wait until (if?) Obama is on the chopping block!
I saw something that Obama lawyered up. I'll try to see if I can find it.
I seem to recall something like that too....
Speaking of Obama -- I got this in an email this morning. I have no idea if it is valid but it seems to be "in character" for the man.
An expected demand from a megalomaniac. If the Treasury Department could
sell Obama and his family for what they think they are worth, the entire national
debt could be paid off with one payment.
Unbelievably Insane!!
When a president dies, the country pays for their burial. In the case of a president like JFK, who was a war hero and assassinated in the middle of a term, something extravagant is in order. His burial at Arlington with the memorial paid for by the people cost almost $4 million in today's money, adjusted for inflation. The Kennedy family paid for the casket, vault and the eternal flame.
Ronald Reagan, one of the most influential men in history, is buried in California at his Presidential Library, paid for by donations from the people and the Reagan family. In fact, other than Kennedy, which we can all agree was warranted, no president has ever cost the taxpayers more than $100K in today's money to bury.
The clause in the Presidential Contract enacted by congress in 1819 states that the president shall receive the burial service deemed fit for his stature and that the cost of the funeral and burial plot will be paid for by the people of a grateful nation. While every president who has died in modern history, except Reagan, took advantage of that perk of the presidency, none have gone so far that anyone would ever have noticed. Until now that is.
BARACK OBAMA has just submitted his plans for burial in a plot that will house his entire family, citing the Kennedys, the Tafts and the Roosevelts as precedent, inside a monument he had designed to celebrate the nation's first black president. The monument, will cost the taxpayers roughly $120 million and will be listed as a national historical place with 24 hour protection from the 3rd US Infantry Regiment, just like the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
The memorial would be built immediately upon approval and occupy the Northeast quadrant of the lawn near the Washington Monument with a view of the White House:
The monument itself would include quotes from his years as president along with a giant bronze statue and burial crypts for him and his family under a large arch:
You heard that right. Obama will be guarded around the clock in a monument among those of our founding fathers and greatest heroes, paid for by the taxpayer
It's not too late to call your congressman and object.
I don't know if that's true or not either....but it's missing something......wouldn't the Obama ego want his head cryogenically frozen? He really should include that in his plan.......
Good one, JG! LMBO
His head and certainly his ego are too large to memorialize.
Well, he could call on one of his home countries to help out....didnt one of those cultures shrink heads?
LOL!!! Love it!
OMG, you and JB are killing me. lmao
Too funny, JB! His head is bigger than one of those balloons in the Macy's Day Parade. He needs about 50 big head handlers.

Travel Headache. An annoying condition that appears at the worst possible moment when you are out and about on holiday. You have a whole day planned and that cracking pain in your temple is about to ruin everything. You need to know the location of the nearest pharmacy and you need to know it fast
Pharmacies are a revelation in Rome. You can find them everywhere and you can even obtain some medications directly from the pharmacist without seeing a doctor. Ask if the pharmacist speaks English and explain your condition. Even if they don't speak English, the international language of pointing at your head or tummy and making a face will give them some idea of the problem. They will let you know the best treatment available in store or they will direct you to a local doctor.
Pharmacies are identified by a large fluorescent green cross that is displayed on the hoarding outside.The directory lists opening and closing hours. Links, where possible, to Paginegialle have been provided to enable you to see the automated updates for weekends and late nights. Otherwise, if you need a pharmacy on a Sunday, find the nearest pharmacy to your location and there will be a sign in the window directing you to the closest operating pharmacy in your area. Look for the words 'Farmacia di Turno". Late night pharmacies and pharmacies that dispense American and U.K medications are in the following areas of our directory; Via Veneto, Piazza di Spagna/del Popolo, and the Vatican Area.
Farmacia Vaticana
This is a gem. It can be a hassle getting inside but when you do, you will find that most medications are 25 -30% cheaper than most pharmacies in Rome. The staff speak English,so grab a ticket, wait your turn and reap the rewards.
Rules for entry
Rule 1: Bring your passport or similar & prescription
Rule 2: You will need to ask the Swiss Guards for permission to enter. Don't worry, they are always at the gate
Rule 3: Dress appropriately. No tank tops, no shorts etc. This is a non negotiable
Rule 4: Don't go with a friend. Only those with a prescription may enter
Rule 5: You can have a friend collect the prescription for you but be sure to give them a letter of permission.
Rule 6: When you arrive, hand over your prescription. You will receive it back with your medication.
Rule 7: Some people have reported that they had to hand their passport or ID to the Swiss Guards before entry but this was not my experience. If you do need to hand your passport over, remember to collect it from the Swiss Guards after you exit the pharmacy!
Rule 8: Unverified Rule: It has also been suggested that non Vatican employees need to go to a registry office within the Vatican to receive a pass. I have not heard of this happening before. It is possible that some people have had the misfortune to deal with a very strict Swiss Guard but you can usually enter the pharmacy without going through this bureaucratic nightmare.
Late Night Pharmacies
The directory lists 24 hr & Sunday pharmacies in Rome.If it is a real emergency and you need a pharmacy close to your location, then you will need to check the farmacie di turno roster. Farmacie di Turno, is a roster system that lists the pharmacies that are open on weekends and overnight location by location. This is a good system that allows you to find the closest all night or weekend pharmacy to you. Please note that here is a small surcharge if you attend a pharmacy between midnight - 8.00. It is normally around E 3.00 and well worth the cost.
What is a Parafarmacia?
A Parafarmacia sells over the counter products. You will find regular headache tablets, beauty products, band aids etc. Some also sell certain medications that may be prescription only in your country but are widely available in Italy. To confuse you even more, some parafarmacia are more like an erboristeria that sells herbal teas,tinctures & ''Crabtree & Evelyn'' style products.
What is a Erboristeria?
Erboristerias vary from store to store. Some sell traditional herbal products, some sell beauty products while others sell health foods with a focus on organic and vegan products. The only way to know which is which is to step inside and explore!
They sell Organic Groceries?
Some pharmacies will stock a full range of organic,gluten free,salt free.dairy free products. Roman pharmacies will always surprise you. They are also a good choice to find special gifts for Vegans and fans of Organic products.
In conclusion
On the whole, Roman pharmacies will allow you to find what you need when you need it. The staff are usually warm, knowledgeable and patient with visitors who do not know the language. The names of medications may not match the ones at home but they do the same job. Don't be afraid to ask questions and if you do feel uncomfortable about something offered to you, walk away and check with your doctor back home. Email is a beautiful thing!
Remember: We do the boring stuff so you don't have to!
Buona Vacanza

I tried to long CHIM /6C4 at below 7.95 - had 10 000 shares at that price and then some 2000 more in the 8.70 and 8.50 area -- unfortunately the move was weak and I even had to sell from 8.35 till 7.95 so it was a failure again.
The big stake of 8800 share in EUBG/4EH I had for a repo-credit that I bought around 5.20 I had to sell around 4.80.
FIB / 5F4 also was weak and I sold it around 5.85 but now it looks better and holds above 6...
I watch the main indices close as I'm very intereseted how the post bubble effects will affect the market.

Schultze / WKSU Earlier this month -- for the second time in less than a year -- the Rover Pipeline project had drilling mud that was supposed to come back up from a drill hole disappear underground at its construction site in Stark County. As a second of two pipes at the site was being installed about 146,000 gallons never returned to the surface and is unaccounted for. The Ohio EPA wants drilling shut down until a full investigation can be completed. FERC Will Look At Its Pipeline Policies For The First Time In 18 Years By Tim Rudell • Dec 25, 2017 FERC The final say on building interstate pipelines, like the controversial NEXUS and ROVER natural gas lines across northern Ohio, rests with FERC—the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. And it's newly appointed chairman has come on board saying it's time to review the agency's pipeline policies. WKSU's Tim Rudell reports. Kevin McIntyre announced the review at his first meeting as Chairman of FERC. Noting that the last review was in 1999, he said a fresh look at all issues is needed. FERC Has Two New Commissioners By Tim Rudell • Aug 5, 2017 hhmlaw.com The Senate has confirmed Trump Administration nominees to fill two of four vacant seats on Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. That gives FERC enough members for a quorum--meaning it can to do official business again. Resignations, term expirations and an appointment backlog at the White House left FERC with too few members for major action for six months.

It has been raining the whole week, crazy, but was funny to have some pepper in the everyday life (whit pepper I mean coming back from school by bike while raining)... by the way after a good breakfast me, my sisters and my mother (that I'm getting used to call so) challenged the shitty weather to go shopping.
I don´t consider myself a shopping addicted or like those girls who just care about appearance... anyway in Italy shopping means buing something expensive maybe ugly just to show a kind of social status, in Finland it's more a search for something affordable, nice and represents you and your style.I like shopping the finnish way, and H&M it's great for the purpose.
Usually I don't usually buy so many stuff but I needed it. I wanted confortable nice clothes for this autumn and, beside this, having just 20 kilos of clothes don't give such a wide choise... I was a great break from the spinning wheel of news I'm going through. And I really liked staying with my sisters, I like them in a simple way, a can't explain that but that's how it is. So everything is from H&M; here there aren't shops like Stradivarius, Pull & Bear or Bershka that I personally like or at least I haven't seen them. Except for the throusers, they are from Minimani, a kind of cheap supermarket... they are so huge and comfortable! Awww!
This is my favourite one: the Rolling Stones mouth it's rocking, funny, spicy... I usually wear grey, black clothes (pretty much what I actually bought) so I bought this which is still black but also has sparkles... I usually avoid sparkes carefully but here I like them. Do you know that feeling when you have bought something that you really like and you don't regret it... really great feeling!
So in the end it was a great saturday, like all saturdays should be...

Many men suffer from constant irritation in their urinary tubes, urinating frequently at night, urgency to urinate when their bladders fill, and discomfort during urination. Often doctors do a culture which shows no cause, so they prescribe doxycycline antibiotics for a week or two, and their patients get no relief. A study from Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden shows that many of these patients are infected with a bacteria called mycoplasma genitalium which cannot be cured by taking doxycycline, but can be cured by taking an erythromycin antibiotic such as Zithromax, or Biaxin (Sexually Transmitted Infections, August 2006).
If you are a man or woman who suffers persistent urinary symptoms, check with your doctor and ask for a urine culture for mycoplasma or just an extended prescription for an erythromycin-type antibiotic.

American Flags near Mark.
Proudly Made in America!
How did the American flag become exactly what it is today?
Folding up the American flag.
The United States flag is a strong icon of American identity as well as nationwide pride. Likewise called Old Glory, the U.S. flag has a vibrant history as well as has actually undergone lots of adjustments starting from the initial official flag of 1777.
Today the American flag includes thirteen straight stripes, 7 red rotating with six white stripes. The stripes stand for the original 13 colonies; the stars represent the 50 states of the country. The shades of the flag are symbolic too: red symbolizes hardiness and valor, white signifies purity and virtue and also blue stands for vigilance, willpower and justice. The factor the Continental Congress initially picked the red, white, as well as blue colors was not made clear in the resolution embracing the flag. Chroniclers believe it was probably a shade choice based on the British Union Jack, which had previously flown over the colonies.
Over time, some have actually attributed slightly different meanings to the three shades, for example, the color red signifying the bloodshed spilled to protect our liberty, yet the significance of the initial definition has actually been rather consistent from 1782.
How did the American flag grow into what it is today?
It is so much greater than the 3 colors or a "design". Consider the places around the world that the American flag has flown, think of the change it has actually undergone throughout the years on American territory. It is truly humbling to consider all that was offered and also sacrificed to make sure that the American flag can fly easily across this nation.
The flag that started with just 13 stars expanded to 50 with the addition of other states to the Union. The number of stars on the flag gradually increased to its existing number today wherein a new star would be added to the blue area on the 4th of July after the day of each new state's admission.
The variety of rotating straight red as well as white stripes has actually stayed at thirteen except from 1795 to 1818 when fifteen stripes showed up on the flag to note the admission of Kentucky and also Vermont to the Union. In 1818, it was determined that adding a stripe to the flag for every brand-new state would certainly not happen as it will certainly make the flag appear crowded as well as it would certainly make the flag unwieldy. It was decided then that the flag would certainly go back to including just thirteen stripes to represent the initial colonies.
The American flag is a symbol not only of hardiness, valiance, pureness, virtue, vigilance, determination and also justice; it is an icon of liberty. Freedom that has been dealt with so hard for over the years. Freedom that has cost this country as well as the families within so much, but it is still a beacon to those desiring they had the liberty that the nation has.
Folding up the American flag.
Typical flag rules suggests that before an American flag is kept or raised, its handlers should two times fold it in half lengthwise; after that (from the other end opposite the blue area) make a triangular fold, remaining to fold it in a triangular patter until the other end is reached. This makes a triangular "pillow" of the flag with only the blue starred field showing outside, and it takes thirteen folds to generate: two lengthwise folds as well as eleven triangular ones.
The flag isn't folded in this manner due to the fact that each of the folds has a special symbolic significance; the flag is folded in this manner since it supplies a dignified ceremonial touch that differentiates folding a flag from folding a regular object such as a bed cover, and also since it results an aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-handle shape. This thirteen-fold procedure was a typical technique long before the development of a ceremonial assignation of "suggesting" per of the steps.
An intricate flag folding event including these definitions has from then on been designed for unique celebrations such as Memorial Day and Veterans Day. These meanings are "real" in the sense that they indicate something to the people that join the event, but they are not the reason a flag is folded up in the conventional thirteen-step manner.
This is America and its sign is the American Flag. This respectable symbol has been targetted at, burned, spit on and also stepped on, but she rises again and again. Although numerous Americans in the state of Iowa proudly fly the flag outside their homes and businesses each day, it is fitting that we, as a country, have set aside one particular day annually to honor our flag as well as to remember that it represents the beliefs as well as values that we ought to strive to uphold. May God bless America as well as those that safeguard her.

[2005 - Season 27/Series 1, Episode 8]
|The Broken Vase
Rose never knew her father -- Pete Tyler died when she was a baby, run over by a hit-and-run driver. Her mother Jackie always said her dad was an inventor, always working on projects that never went anyway, and that he was a wonderful man who died young -- and alone. Rose wants to go see him and, when he dies, go over to him just so he doesn't die alone. The Doctor agrees with a slight reluctance.
But when the moment comes, instead of going to comfort a dying man, Rose hesitates and runs away. She asks the Doctor for one more chance; he says one. Now they stand there, watching themselves watching her dad approach his death. She's supposed to wait until the original version of herself runs away, then go to comfort Pete.
But this time, she has the opposite impulse, and runs up and saves his life.
|The Vase Unbroken
Their old selves disappear. At first, the Doctor is just livid at her, but it soon becomes clear that she has caused damage to Time itself. The Doctor, as a Time Lord, can totally solve the problem with the TARDIS. There's only one problem:
So Time starts falling apart, and horrifying creatures fly from the sky trying to close the wound in time by devouring anyone close to where the wound happened. The Doctor desperately tries to do something, anything to save the day, but without the TARDIS, even he might not be able to do much more than delay the deaths of untold numbers of people...
This, finally, is what made Doctor Who great once, and has made it great again: compelling and imaginative writing combined with superb performances. It's not perfect -- some of the minor supporting characters (particularly the father of the groom at the wedding) are rough caricatures, and there are a few moments that don't hold up to scrutiny. But its emotional impact cannot be dismissed, nor the thought and complexity put into the three central characterizations.
Much of its power comes from what came before in the season -- these stories have been told through Rose's eyes, and she really is the central character. Outside of a few rouge episodes here and there, the companions have never really been the central characters since Barbara and Ian in the first two series. It's called Doctor Who, after all, not Assistants Of An Eccentric Alien Wanderer. But Rose has been the center of all these stories. Even Dalek, built around the antagonism of the Doctor and his greatest enemy, was from Rose's viewpoint; ultimately, the Doctor didn't resolve the plot, it just resolved itself with a little push from her. While there are definitely downsides to this approach, here it pays off beautifully: we are deeply emotionally attached to Rose, and writer Paul Cornell uses this to his best advantage.
It's a genuinely sad, moving, and creepy story, full of great little touches. There's a special attention to detail in the dialogue. When Rose talks to her Father, her awkwardness at attempting to act normal is perfect; it's obvious to him that something about her is a little off, but he rolls with it anyway.
In particular, the dialogue develops the relationship between the Doctor and his companion with great subtlety and care.
The Doctor chews Rose out for changing history angrily, but it's clear that it's not really violating the Laws of Time he's upset about, but that he feels jealous. He wants to be the powerful authority in Rose's life, and while he could easily swat away boyfriends and suitors, he can't do that to her father. The dialogue in this scene is exactly what it's like when someone is angry at a friend for selfish reasons, but tears into them for legitimate reasons they don't care about. But, of course, the second the Doctor knows she really has created danger, his first thought is to save her.
When he runs to her, calling her name, she smiles first, and turns to see him. And they way her smile drops when she realizes he's serious is perfect.
But more touching and meaningful is the little moment at the beginning when they first witness Pete's death.
While it's been there before, the intensity of their relationship is emphasized. While the Doctor never expresses romantic feelings on the surface, there's certainly something bubbling underneath, but it's effective even seen as a deep friendship. None of the previous Doctor-Companion relationships have been so deep and complex except with Sarah Jane, and that was kept much further under the surface.
I have to say, thinking about it, the Ninth Doctor may be the least-likable Doctor, but Eccleston makes him so compelling that he's magnetic and intriguing anyway. But going through this season, much as I like Eccleston's performances, I can't wait to get to Tennant.
Regardless, however, Eccleston is at the top of his game here. Nine may not accomplish too much in the episode, but it isn't for lack of trying: for all his flaws, he's heroic and proactive. Eccleston plays everything with an incredible power.
Billie Piper is the emotional center of the story, of course, and she is astounding, surpassing everything she's done before. She shows an incredible depth of emotion, but also holds back perfectly, making it all the more moving.
But the finest performance here comes from Shaun Dingwall as Pete. Pete turns out to be much less than the man Jackie built him up to be -- in fact, they are at each other's throats constantly. Pete's a bit of a player, Jackie is pretty abrasive, all of which leads to rather a rough relationship. He doesn't seem like the most likable guy when you look at him on the surface, but Dingwall makes him not just real, but incredibly likable -- a nice guy who makes mistakes.
His performance in the dramatic scenes couldn't be more perfect -- deeply personal and emotional, but under the surface and reserved correctly. It's a masterful portrayal, and adds immensely to the story's considerable emotional impact.
Director Joe Aherne creates a deep sense of dread and fear as the end of the world approaches. Murray Gold's music is restrained and soft, and makes everything all the more devastating.
Father's Day is everything that makes Doctor Who great: it's an imaginative sci-fi yarn with great monsters and ambitious themes, but it's also a powerful, character-driven tale that digs deep into the heart and the mind. Sad, complex, moving, yet also, in a small way, uplifting. It's not just great fantasy: it's great drama.

Greyhounds can be pretty awkward. Put hats on them and their discomfort is exponential.
It might not be the nicest, but we seem to take pleasure when animals are mildly uncomfortable.
Putting hats on Greyhounds definitely may not make them comfortable but, because they wear their insecurities so clearly on their faces, it is funny.
Here are 10 Greyhounds wearing hats.
1. Peter Pan in Headlights
2. "Why me? And why a Greyhound snood?"

3. Maybe Whippets are okay with looking dashing.
4. "As long as there is cake involved, I will wear this dog hat."
5. "But, I don't really like this knit dog hat."
6. "I look okay though, right?"
7. Le sigh.
8. "Boo, I hate wooly hat season."
9. Eesh
10. "I think it's too tight."
These Greyhounds may not be sure about their hats or neck warmers, but at least they know they bring us joy in their discomfort. Dogs really just want to make us happy in the long run.
They'll put up with our antics if they think it pleases us.
Do you have a Greyhound? Have you ever made it wear a hat? Tell us in the comments below!

I received a fundraising letter from Congressman Leonard Boswell's campaign recently. It contained a healthy dose of the misleading spin I have come to expect from Boswell's mailings this year.
I'm not going to retype the whole text, but this passage made me laugh (emphasis is in the original):
My republican opponent has had four months to raise money and plan for the general election; an election that I am only able to focus my attention on now. While I was competing against an opponent for the Democratic nomination, the republicans were getting ready to once again challenge us in this competitive district. This time they have the advantage of a large head start.
Get real. Iowa's third Congressional district is not on the National Republican Congressional Committee's list of 2008 targets.
CQ Politics has rated IA-03 "safe Democrat", in part because the Republicans are not targeting the seat.
The latest Cook Political Report of competitive U.S. House races makes no mention of IA-03, which means that seat is considered safe for the incumbent.
Similarly, IA-03 is nowhere to be found on Swing State Project's list of competitive U.S. House races.
What about that big "head start" the Republicans supposedly got while Boswell was facing a primary challenge? The most recent Federal Election Commission reporting, based on the May 14, 2008 filings, show that Boswell had raised about $1.16 million this election cycle and had about $709,000 cash on hand.
Republican candidate Kim Schmett had raised about $54,500 so far this year and had just under $33,300 cash on hand.
Let Red Brannan and the others who funded the smear campaign against Ed Fallon replenish Boswell's campaign coffers.
Democrats in the third district should vote for Boswell in November, but don't be a sucker–plenty of other Democratic candidates need and deserve your donations more.
Speaking of which, I have given Becky Greenwald $100. Go here if you would like to contribute to her campaign. A strong fundraising number at the end of the second quarter would give her a boost against Tom Latham.
UPDATE: Another worthy candidate is Iowa native Heather Ryan, who is running against a horrible incumbent Republican in Kentucky's first district. RDemocrat's latest post on that race is here.

Visiting our states botanical gardens was a wonderful way to burn some unwanted calories. I love taking pictures of the flowers and my family. We also visited a park nearby, hit a few tennis balls and sunk a few baskets. lol We sucked but we had fun. The weather was delightful.
I am still being faithful to the Wii Fit. I log in almost daily. My weight still goes up and down but I won't be discouraged. I also found out that my bathroom scale says I weigh about 10 lbs more. I think the carpet is causing the board to display my weight incorrectly. I wish we could put it on a hard surface but we can not. Blah!
We plan to do more outdoor activities this summer. We love walking or hiking in the mountains. We want to take our boat out this year. We are hoping our 3 year old won't jump overboard. lol She is a rowdy one.
I need to cut back on late night eating or snacking.

Fool For Love
It's safe to say - things have been less than perfect. Actually, that's an understatement, things have been horrible. Worse than horrible - terrible/devastating/cruel/ridiculous...
Whatever the proper word is... my relationship with the absolute love of my life has suffered.
But damn.. we had so many things stacked against us in the first place.
For the past couple of months, I have tried everything, finally just deciding, "Fine.. I suppose it's the end."
I even took steps to just walk away.. end it all.. and just move on., but each time I tried, a door would slam in my face. I simply could not understand it: my relationship was falling apart at the seams, yet when I tried to remove myself from the situation, nothing was working out.
Then I happened to open one of my journals, out fell a book of prayers called "Healing Prayers." I bought this little book back at the Monastery I stayvisited in Cullman, Alabama. I decided to just pray. Except this time - I prayed for him. I prayed one of those heart wrenching, with-all-my-might prayers. The kind that ask for healing: healing of our relationship, healing of our hearts, healing of our families.. just for us to be able to move on and find happiness.
I sent one final letter to him. (Yes, we had gotten to that point.) This time I did not nag, or place the blame, or threaten.. I just said that I loved him. I loved us. I apologized for things not working out the way we had once hoped. I told him that I chose him, but in the end, I had to choose me. We gave it a good try. I thanked him for allowing me to be vulnerable and showing me the most amazing experience in Egypt. Then I honestly let it go.
I woke up Sunday morning and something changed. We talked. We held each other. We talked some more. There were apologies and there was love. Honest love. The love I remembered... not so long ago. The love that had changed me to the core.
The ice had melted. The sun was shining. The peace, the passion and the pleasantries had returned.
I had my egyptian back.
There is no reason to go into great detail, because the truth is - from this point forward, what happens in my home is between my husband and I. I made some pretty stupid mistakes, sharing too much and honestly.. it caused a lot of problems. Those days are over. I wanted to close that chapter right here. For good.
The best news of all - Love does conquer all. Prayers can be answered. Miracles do exist.
For those of you who have followed my love story from the beginning (back in the immigration days,) just know that all is well in the kingdom. Thank you for your prayers, your support, and your kind emails.
Until next time..

Friday ramblings...
That was a LONG WEEK!
In fact I think it might actually have been 2 or 3 weeks! Monday was a long time ago.
This weekend is going to be one of those "nothing planned, lets just see what happens" weekends. The weather has cleared up nicely today from the rain we have had most days this week, so hopefully I can drag out the barbeque at some point!
The next couple of weeks are going to be insane at work - the freshers arrive next week, and we have loads of them. Add to that we have a load of building work at the Uni that is just finishing up - new book shop and coffee shop right down stairs from me, new science labs, new library, new lecture theatres - I am going to be just as lost as the freshers at first!
Then the rest of the students arrive too and I also start studying again! One of mymodules this year is all about the USA and Canada, so it will be fun to see what I can find out about where my American and Canadian friends live! Essays? Not so excited about them...
Oh, one thing that I DO plan to do this weekend is to finish off my latest set of toy soldiers - Sudanese Mahdists from the 1880s-1890s. They are looking pretty good so far, so I will see about posting photos when they are totally done.
Finally, another bass guitar lesson for my daughter...
Have a great weekend!

I live for those kinds of weekends. Spent too many in the past either at work or camping with the scouts or attending football/soccer games. I got nothing on my radar this weekend and I am planning to keep it that way.

President Barack Obama's plan for destroying the Islamic State incorporates nearly every strategic option available to the United States – short of sending a large contingent of American troops to fight the terrorist group. Those who criticize the president for not doing enough to combat the Islamic State need to say whether they are willing to send thousands of U.S. forces back to Iraq.
Obama used a rare primetime address to the nation to outline what he labeled "a steady, relentless effort" to root out and destroy Islamic State extremists. He said the group is a serious threat to allies in the Middle East, American interests in the region and, ultimately, the U.S. homeland.
The administration stresses that it is not aware of a credible threat of an imminent attack in the United States. But, the president said, Westerners, including scores of Americans, fighting alongside Islamic State troops could return to their home countries to stage an attack.
The strategy for confronting the terrorists is multi-pronged. Obama plans to enlist forces from other countries in the region, primarily Iraqi and Kurdish troops in Iraq and, more tentatively, moderate Syrian rebels who oppose both the Islamic State and the government of Haffez al Assad.
Obama hopes to help arm and train the Syrian rebels. Saudi Arabia indicated this week that it would agree to an American request to provide bases to train moderate Syrian opposition fighters.
The president also plans to continue air attacks on the Islamic State in Iraq and expand the bombing to its strongholds in Syria. Air strikes by manned fighters and drones will constitute the primary U.S. contribution to the effort.
Obama hopes that a coalition of troops consisting largely of regional fighters will confront the terrorists on the ground. Ideally, indigenous troops in Iraq can regain control of territory now occupied by the Islamic State there, while Syrian rebels can use the advantage of U.S. air support to control territory in Syria.
Unstated in the president's speech was how much help – in terms of money, troops, equipment or all three – might come from neighbors such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Turkey and Iran. Iran allegedly already has sent advisers and seasoned troops to Iraq to bolster Shiite government forces in that country.
The overall strategy, as critics note, might not be adequate to the task of destroying the Islamic State. Air strikes alone might not be enough to rout the terrorists, and there is no guarantee that Iraqi troops will rise to the challenge or that enough moderate Syrian rebels can be mustered in that country to make a difference.
Some question whether true "moderates" actually exist among the Syrian opposition. And there is no assurance that once U.S. air power has weakened the Islamic State that Assad's federal troops won't move in and recapture the territory held by the terrorists.
It also is something of a dodge when the president says that this effort "will not involve American combat troops fighting on foreign soil." He made that pledge Wednesday night while also announcing that he will dispatch nearly 500 more U.S. troops to Iraq to assist security forces there, bringing the total number of American forces sent there this summer to more than 1,500.
All those Americans who are in harm's way could be classified as combat troops. And that includes all the pilots who will fly bombing runs over Iraq and Syria and their support personnel on the ground.
But we understand and sympathize with Obama's desire to stop well short of what would amount to another U.S. occupation of Iraq. The president is walking a fine line between appeasing a desire by the American people to do something about the Islamic State while also recognizing that, after more than a decade of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, the public has had enough.
And that is the same dilemma facing those who say Obama is not doing enough to confront the threat of the Islamic State. Are they willing to launch another full-blown U.S. war in the Middle East that could mire this country there for another decade?
Obama has a good record of terrorist hunting. He tracked down and killed Osama bin Laden, and decimated the leadership of al Qaida so that it is only a shadow of what it used to be.
The Pentagon confirmed last week that Ahmed Abdi Godane, the leader of the Islamist militant group al-Shabaab, was killed in a U.S. air strike inside Somalia. Countless other terrorists have been killed in similar attacks.
U.S. air strikes in Iraq also were effective in rescuing members of a religious sect trapped on a mountain by Islamic State troops and in providing the support needed for Iraqi and Kurdish Peshmerga forces to drive back Islamic State fighters and regain lost territory.
So, before asking the president to do more to blunt the threat of the Islamic State, let's see how this plan works.

Pet Portraits and Floral Commission - on the customer's wall!
I don't always get to see how my paintings look after shipping them unframed to the customer. This time I got to see the final result!
Recently I completed several pet portraits and floral studies in watercolor, along with an oil floral. I'd never done pet portraits before, and don't really advertise my watercolors, so I was really happy that the customer liked them enough to send pictures of them framed and hanging in her home!
The top image shows the pet portraits: Buddy and Tator - here's the original blog post, done on hot-pressed watercolor paper and framed by the customer. She did a nice job! Below are close ups of each framed portrait.
The last image is the watercolor study for a larger oil painting of Hibiscus blossoms - here's the original blog post. I did the watercolor to show the customer what her finished painting would resemble, and allow her to make any changes to the color scheme and composition, before I started the oil version. She liked the watercolor study so much she purchased it too!
It's nice to know that my artwork is making someone happy! Thank you to this special customer for sending these pictures to me.

Merry Christmas
I hope you were all surrounded by family and good friends today. We had such a lovely day. I have no words to capture the joy of the past couple of days, so I am off to bed, though it is earlier than last night and I am one tired girl.

I caught about 2 minutes of the Ed Shultz show yesterday where he was critical of MoveOn.org's advertising campaign against Maryland Rep. Steny Hoyer for the congressman's vote in support of The No Credit Card Company Left Behind "bankruptcy reform" bill.
Shultz and some of his callers thought this just provided amunition for Republicans and that MoveOn.org and everybody else should just lay off Democrats, no matter what they do.
Thankfully another caller weighed in that (1) MoveOn.org is a progressive, as opposed to a Democratic organization, so MoveOn.org is obligated by any 11th commandment or any such thing; and that (2) it's folly to just keep sending Republican-minded Democrats back to Washington all the time and expecting things to change.
Now, while agreeing with Shultz's last caller, I'm not arguing that MoveOn's action here was either wise or useful.
But I'm not impressed with the reasoning that we can't say anything bad about Democrats or else Republicans will use those charges against us. First of all, Hoyer will walk to re-election anyway. Second, the credit card company bill, unlike other economic related measures, had absolutely no valid purpose other than to reward Big Business. It isn't going to lower credit card rates, or increase jobs for the credit card companies.
I don't necessarily hold that on every business related matter that comes before Congress, that the interests of the economy and the nation as a whole should always be subordinated to the percieved interests of the poor or working classes. Sometimes its the case that measures which have either negative short term impacts or will prove beneficial overall are needed.
But in the case of the Paris Hilton Estate Tax Elimination bill, and the Leave No Credit Card Company Behind bill, there is no larger economic interest served. All these bills do is reward the upper classes and the business community.
When Democrats in Congress don't get this, than they deserve to be reminded, perhaps publicly, of what they were sent to Washington to do.

(Louis XIV, Hyacinthe Riguad, 1701, Louvre)
One of my favorite characters in all of history is France's illustrious leader, Louis XIV.
Known as the Sun King, Louie made his mark on French history for a boatload of reasons.
Here is the short list:
* He enjoyed the longest royal reign in European history to this point - 72 years!
* He believed he was destined to rule France by "divine right" so he wasted no time imposing bunches of rules and regulations to keep his 20 million subjects in line.
* Because he desired to dominate Europe, he directed his army to engage in a series of wars in order to gain power and position on that continent.
* He was a tireless promoter of French culture and the arts.
That last point is the one I want to focus on today.
Louie loaded his palaces with paintings, sculpture, tapestries, candlesticks, vases, chandeliers, mirrors, rugs, porcelains of every variety and luxurious fabrics.
(Louie used this candlestick to kill Mrs. Peach in the library, Versailles)
Money was no object.
(Louie liked to feather his nest. Bed canopy complete with ostrich feather plumes, Versailles)
If Louie liked it, Louie acquired it or he had it built to his personal taste.
(Louie's media room, Versailles)
And he wasn't particularly shy about sharing the joys of his "cottages" with the ladies and gentlemen of his court.
(Louie's casual portrait, Chenonceau)
Louie loved throwing lavish dinner parties and spectacular balls for his 12 million closest friends.
All in all, he was quite the dude!
That's why I love the top portrait of Louie by renowned court painter, Hyacinthe Rigaud.
I have affectionately titled it, "I'M DA MAN!"
One glance at this portrait and there is little doubt in anyone's mind who is king of France.
Mercy! - where do we start?
How about that magnificent robe?
First of all, it's cobalt blue topside is literally smothered in fleur-de-lis, the coat of arms of the French royal family back in the day.
And just in case you missed them, Louie's chair/throne, ottoman and pillow are swathed in the same "I am the head honcho" symbols.
The white underside of this robe is ermine, by the way.
That massive robe had to be scorching hot to wear, don't you think?
Louie is probably thinking to himself, "Hey, Hyacinthe, would you get on with it, my man? I'm dying a slow death under this furry tent!"
Next, we notice that Louie is leaning ever so regally on his scepter which just happens to be pointing to his gold crown.
How's that for subtlety?
It's obvious by now that Louie liked to live large.
Check out the size of that column behind his right arm.
And what about that dramatic ruby-red drapery hanging from the rafters?
Have you noticed that gold sword dangling from his left hip?
Look at the size of it!
I'm pretty sure Louie could spear 300 soldiers at once with that thing.
Not that he'd ever want to, of course.
I hate to get personal but let's take a closer look at Louie's more delicate attire.
He's drowning in lace and silk as was the custom of the day for aristocratic males.
Frankly, I'm coveting those lacey cuffs on his sleeves.
And I wish my legs looked as good as Louie's.
You can tell he really knows how to strut his stuff.
But I'll bet his tootsies are screaming for breathing room in those darling little heels!
I've just got to say it - Louie can seriously keep his curly black wig.
That's just a little too much hair for me to deal with on any day of the week.
Well, now, I've thoroughly trashed the good king, haven't I?
Here's the thing:
Sometimes art is just plain funny.
Especially if the subject of the art is kind of asking for it.
Which, viewed from our 21st century American perspective, he is.
It's okay to snicker in an art museum.
You can even laugh your silly little head off if you want to.
Visitors will probably turn around and shoot you a death stare but that's their problem.
This is the wonderful thing about art.
It's supposed to be a human experience.
Not everything in life is drop dead serious.
Ditto for art museums!
So, go!
Have a rollicking good time.
But here's a final thought:
Louie's portrait is hanging proudly in the Louvre these days.
That's in Paris, France.
This is just me, but I'd probably skip the "laugh your silly little head off" directive if I was standing in front of Louie and his over-the-top painting.
Louie's French museum guards might not take too kindly to my gut busting outburst.
Grinning, however, would be good.
Don't be surprised if Louie flashes one right back at ya!
Louis XIV founded the academies of Painting and Sculpture in 1655. He established the academy of Science in 1666 and the academy of Architecture in 1671.
In 1680, he created the Comedie Francaise.
Louie's interest in improving Paris never waned.
He razed the city's medieval walls, built the Invalides as a home for disabled veterans, planned the great avenue of the Champs-Elysees, and refurbished the Cathedral of Notre Dame.
His personal example of long, dedicated rule made France the bureaucratic model for 18th century, absolutist Europe.
Louie's influence on architecture and interior design was monumental. His style was a French adaptation of baroque, emphasizing formal grandeur and lush ostentation. The king's palace at Versailles was the supreme example of this style, in which all the arts - architecture, sculpture, painting, interior design, and landscape design - were integrated into a unified expression of royal taste.
