Follow Friday: Reflections from the Fence
Just during the past week or so she has written a couple of thought-provoking articles on balancing one of the big chores of genealogy research – transcription – with other aspects of research (not to mention "regular" life): "Relatively Speaking, Cousins That Blog, Annespiration" and "Reflection's Balancing Act, or, Nope, It Ain't Perfect." Which also features her genealogy and blogging interaction with her cousins Anne at Generational and Gene Notes and Karen at Genealogy Frame of Mind. And then there is the whole Wordless Wednesday … competition? … with yet another of my favorite GeneaBloggers, Linda at Flipside (mostly in the area of nature pictures –great photography on both blogs!).
Like Becky at kinexxions, Carol and her husband (aka "Man") are avid travelers; their RV, "Tana," as well as their adorable Yorkies, are characters in their own right on Carol's blog. Lately we have been treated to some great photography from their travels in Alabama, in particular the gorgeous Bellingrath Gardens. Reflections truly shows a breadth of interests and depth of talent that belie the stereotype of the genealogy researcher as a one-note monomaniac. And, oh yes, I forgot – humor (See "RVers Sense of Humor – Rubber Duckies Style"). Oh, yes, and one more thing – Carol is a fellow contributor to the "Friend of Friend" posts (latest post – "Friend of Friends, Darden, Isle of Wight County, Virginia, Will Naming Slaves").
So, if you one are of the rare GeneaBloggers or followers who has not yet dropped by Reflections from the Fence (aka a total newbie), go check it out – you will have fun and learn something, too!

Uganda Wildlife Authority management and staff on Wednesday donated assorted items including foodstuffs, drinks and clothes to the Missionaries of the Poor who look after over 400 disadvantaged children and young adults in Kisenyi and Busega homes, in the outskirts of Kampala.
The UWA team was led by the Executive Director, flanked by the director for Tourism and Business Services, Mr. Raymond Engena, Human Resources Manager, Mr. Chris Mwesiimo and the Public Relations Manager, Ms Lillian Nsubuga among others. Dr. Andrew Seguya who was received at the Bethlehem home by the in charge, Brother Sonny Borras, said Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) is happy to associate with Bethlehem Home by providing food items with the babies and young people that are being looked after at this home.
"One of UWA's main objectives and goals is to share with the communities the little money that we collect from our activities in the national parks. Last year, we were able to donate food and scholastic materials to the Missionaries of the Poor in Kisenyi and therefore contributed to improving the welfare of those children", said UWA's Chief Executive Officer.
Uganda Wildlife Authority is a semi-autonomous government agency responsible for managing the wildlife and protected areas of Uganda. We manage 10 national parks and 12 wildlife reserves located in different national parks. Dr. Seguya said Uganda Wildlife Authority is keen to ensure that Ugandans share in the benefits that accrue from having wildlife in our country. We have the Revenue Sharing policy whereby we give 20 percent of annual revenue from park entry fees to the communities neighbouring the national park. This money has been used to build schools, classrooms, teachers' houses, health centers, as well as rehabilitate roads and begin income-generating activities.
The much needed food items donated by UWA included sugar, maize flour, beans, rice and soda. "We are aware of the difficulty of putting food on the table for a big number of children given the high food prices on the market. We understand that you have over 206 children here as well as 50 adults; therefore we hope that our donation will go a long way in improving your operations. Under our CSR program, we shall continue to strive that various communities benefit from tourism and wildlife" he promised.
Brother Borras who appreciated the UWA gesture, said some of the children are orphans, victims of accidents, those abandoned by parents due to mental and physical handicap. He said Missionaries for the poor was founded in 1981 by a former priest who used to teach in Boston and has today grown to serve in eight countries. He said it was an uphill task catering for over 400 residents basic needs without any steady sources of income except for donations from philanthropists.

Model Information
Measurements: 34D
Buxom Ashly Anderson is always wrapped in the most tantalizing wisps of silk, satin, and lace. "I have a slight obsession with pretty things and lingerie," confides the Southern belle, and if anything, that's an understatement! Of course, with a perfect set of big tits and a stunning, round ass like hers, it's important to accentuate them with the loveliest attire. And for Ashly, the fun of having a drawer full of the sexiest lingerie was nowhere near as enjoyable as the thrill of showing it off! That's why this stunner began modeling her favorites for an audience, first as a webcam model, and now as an adult film starlet. One of Ashly's favorite parts of her career is the opportunity to slip into a new and sexy ensemble every day... That, and getting to swallow cum, which this babe admits with a naughty grin that she can't get enough of. "I just like it everywhere! I like to taste it." Check out this stunning lingerie lover and her latest outfits in the videos below.

Admittedly, I am a guy who generally dreads the thought of plodding through a shopping mall on any day of the year, but to me the encroachment of Black Friday into Thanksgiving evening seems not only insane but also disturbingly unpatriotic.
It was bad enough when it became the norm for people to show up in the middle of the night in order to be near the front of the line when store doors swung open early on the morn after Thanksgiving. Every time I heard about the herd of shoppers being culled as someone got trampled or sent to the hospital after a fight over a Tickle Me Elmo, I felt justified in my smugness and disdain of this retail frenzy. If that is how the rabble wanted to spend their time and money, so be it. The manic rush to save a hundred bucks on a 50-inch flat-screen TV or finish Christmas shopping by 9 a.m. on Black Friday could go on without me.
Over the years, though, retailers have pushed the starting time for this mad dash earlier and earlier until now it is bumping up against the slicing of the pumpkin pie at the Thanksgiving dinner table. This does not seem right.
PHOTOS: Top of the Ticket cartoons
I pity the poor retail workers who have to leave home and hearth and turkey dinner on the most venerable national holiday of the year. Instead of giving thanks for the opportunity to be confronted by a greedy horde of bargain hunters, I suspect most of those workers are cursing the store owners who decided to ruin the day with their own lust for a dollar. I think it is safe to assume the guys who own Target or Best Buy or the other big retailers will not be manning the cash registers. No, they will be sharing a leisurely Thanksgiving repast with their heirs in the peace and safety of their gated communities.
In 2013, it will be exactly 150 years since Abraham Lincoln set aside the fourth Thursday in November as a national day of "Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens." Obviously, traditions shift over time, but let us hope that by next year those who put making money and spending money above all other values will not have totally desecrated what was once an all-American day like no other.
For anyone who feels as disgusted as I am with the plundering of Thanksgiving, go to Change.org and sign the petition urging Target to stop being the Grinch who stole Thanksgiving from employees. Maybe if one retailer is shamed into doing business more thoughtfully, others can be, as well.

At Trillium Architects we believe in quality. We believe in building homes that work, last and are loved. Looking forward into the past we believe that you should live in a home that you would be proud to leave your grandchildren - and one that will last long enough for that to be a possibility.
We have just begun observation of the construction of what will be our second LEED Home. We have recently completed 3 new homes in Fairfield County, CT (one of them LEED Certified Home) and have one new home in mid-construction outside of San Diego, CA. The common thread that runs through these homes is that they are all super energy efficient, sustainable, relatively small homes (for Fairfield and San Diego Counties). We also have a number of additions, renovations, curb appeal upgrades and deep energy retrofits underway.
At Trillium Architects we design green homes.
What does GREEN mean? Green is an umbrella term that means:
- energy efficient
- sustainable
- healthy
- low maintenance
- low carbon footprint
- natural
- environmentally friendly
- smaller in size
- appropriately sited
- practical
- beautiful
- enjoyable
- user-friendly
At Trillium we pride ourselves in doing 3 kinds of 'Green Homes':
- New Green Homes
- Green Home Additions and Renovations
- Deep Energy Retrofits

This paper deals with the problem of determining the sea surface topography from geostrophic flow of ocean currents on local domains of the spherical Earth. In mathematical context the problem amounts to the solution of a spherical differential equation relating the surface curl gradient of a scalar field (sea surface topography) to a surface divergence-free vector field(geostrophic ocean flow). At first, a continuous solution theory is presented in the framework of an integral formula involving Green's function of the spherical Beltrami operator. Different criteria derived from spherical vector analysis are given to investigate uniqueness. Second, for practical applications Green's function is replaced by a regularized counterpart. The solution is obtained by a convolution of the flow field with a scaled version of the regularized Green function. Calculating locally without boundary correction would lead to errors near the boundary. To avoid these Gibbs phenomenona we additionally consider the boundary integral of the corresponding region on the sphere which occurs in the integral formula of the solution. For reasons of simplicity we discuss a spherical cap first, that means we consider a continuously differentiable (regular) boundary curve. In a second step we concentrate on a more complicated domain with a non continuously differentiable boundary curve, namely a rectangular region. It will turn out that the boundary integral provides a major part for stabilizing and reconstructing the approximation of the solution in our multiscale procedure.
On the Local Multiscale Determination of the Earth`s Disturbing Potential From Discrete Deflections of the Vertical (2007)
As a first approximation the Earth is a sphere; as a second approximation it may be considered an ellipsoid of revolution. The deviations of the actual Earth's gravity field from the ellipsoidal 'normal' field are so small that they can be understood to be linear. The splitting of the Earth's gravity field into a 'normal' and a remaining small 'disturbing' field considerably simplifies the problem of its determination. Under the assumption of an ellipsoidal Earth model high observational accuracy is achievable only if the deviation (deflection of the vertical) of the physical plumb line, to which measurements refer, from the ellipsoidal normal is not ignored. Hence, the determination of the disturbing potential from known deflections of the vertical is a central problem of physical geodesy. In this paper we propose a new, well-promising method for modelling the disturbing potential locally from the deflections of the vertical. Essential tools are integral formulae on the sphere based on Green's function of the Beltrami operator. The determination of the disturbing potential from deflections of the vertical is formulated as a multiscale procedure involving scale-dependent regularized versions of the surface gradient of the Green function. The modelling process is based on a multiscale framework by use of locally supported surface curl-free vector wavelets.
By means of the limit and jump relations of classical potential theory with respect to the vectorial Helmholtz equation a wavelet approach is established on a regular surface. The multiscale procedure is constructed in such a way that the emerging scalar, vectorial and tensorial potential kernels act as scaling functions. Corresponding wavelets are defined via a canonical refinement equation. A tree algorithm for fast decomposition of a complex-valued vector field given on a regular surface is developed based on numerical integration rules. By virtue of this tree algorithm, an effcient numerical method for the solution of vectorial Fredholm integral equations on regular surfaces is discussed in more detail. The resulting multiscale formulation is used to solve boundary-value problems for the time harmonic Maxwell's equations corresponding to regular surfaces.
Based on the well-known results of classical potential theory, viz. the limit and jump relations for layer integrals, a numerically viable and e±cient multiscale method of approximating the disturbing potential from gravity anomalies is established on regular surfaces, i.e., on telluroids of ellipsoidal or even more structured geometric shape. The essential idea is to use scale dependent regularizations of the layer potentials occurring in the integral formulation of the linearized Molodensky problem to introduce scaling functions and wavelets on the telluroid. As an application of our multiscale approach some numerical examples are presented on an ellipsoidal telluroid.

Katy Perry (real name Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson) was born in Santa Barbara, California the middle child of pastor parents.
She has an older sister, Angela, and younger brother, Danny. Katy grew up in a deeply religious family and sang and listened to gospel music in church. Growing up, she wasn't allowed to watch MTV. After taking her GED, she left high school in pursuit of a career in music.At age 15, she began visiting Nashville and recording demos. After signing with a Christian record label, Katy Perry released her first album under the name Katy Hudson. It did not do well.At age 17, Katy Perry subsequently moved to Los Angeles and tried to land a record deal. After failed attempts with Island Records and Columbia Records, in 2007, she signed with Capitol Records. She recorded her second album "One of the Boys" and released the smash single "I Kissed a Girl " She said of the song, "The song was inspired by a friendship I had with a girl when I was 15, and I did kiss her. I was totally obsessed with her. She was beautiful " porcelain skin, perfect lips " and I still talk to her, but I've never told her the song is about her." Other reports claim the song was inspired by Scarlett Johansson.Katy Perry has also written and sold songs to Kelly Clarkson and Jessie James.Katy Perry's album "Teenage Dream" was only the second album after Michael Jackson's "Bad" to generate five #1 singles. Katy Perry became the first female artist to accomplish this feat.In 2012, Katy Perry starred in a documentary film, "Katy Perry: Part of Me." She said, "I wanted to show the entire operation. People just think I'm the girl wearing the ruby slippers. I wanted to show them at the end of the journey. I am the Oz as well."Katy Perry has said of her body, "I was shaped like a square at one time. I was! I'm generally around 130 pounds, which is totally fine for me. But when I was a kid, I was the same height and weighed more like 145. And I had enormous boobs that I didn't know what to do with.little did I know.that these things would come in handy someday."Katy Perry is a natural blonde, but likes to dye her hair.

Telecom retail stores have driven communication service provider (CSP) company growth for years. In fact, they've driven more consumer wireless acquisition and renewals than any other channel.
But that was yesterday.
Success no longer means stores' major function is to compete for the highest sales. Rather, local store footprints should vary.
Some may need to offer consumers the latest products. Others may be kiosks, where customers pick up or drop off a device. Others may be self-service outlets. And some will need to offer all of this.
Stores need to be part of a network of customer channels, each underpinned by digital technology.

Hello.. Almost a year and Im still struggling in uncertainty. Every day I spin my brain to think that whether Im at risk for HIV and STDs? I want to stop all of these.. n the only one way is to get reassurance from someone expert like you. 10months ago.. I stole my neighbor unwashed underwear and bra, in which there's cervical fluid or vagina secretion (couldn't see or smell any blood) and I assumed is 90 to 99% dried. I wrapped my penis (foreskin n penis gland) with the underwear and masturbate. I think I had shaken my foreskin too hard that time and caused foreskin to be inflamed before sperm released. Moreover, I licked the female bra and also the stain on underwear (I think there's canker sore inside my mouth tat time), thus I rubbed my eyes with my unwashed hand after I touched the stain. Furthermore, before I masturbated and touched the stain I had accidentally cut my nails became very short and as a result I feel pain when I touch water. My GP doctor told me u won't get any HIV or STDs coz there's not adequate amount of these viruses go to your body. After he told me like that, everyday I think how can not adequate? I feel the virus 4 times go to my body, from penis, mouth, eyes and fingers. Please save my future!
Thank's a millions
Hello Michael,
Believe it or not you're not the only used panty thief to have these concerns! (See below.) Your HIV-acquisition risk is nonexistent. The only thing you really have to worry about is that your neighbor might find out you're the one who snatched her knickers!

Licking Panties (PANTIES 2009) Jul 6, 2009
Hi, can you get aids/hiv from licking a girls thong with dry white stains and period blood?
Please help me
Advertisement Response from Dr. Frascino
You were licking a girl's thong with dry white stains and menstrual blood??? Hmm . . . can I ask why? Did you perhaps run out of tortilla chips or other more tasty snacks? Or maybe you mistook the thong for dental floss??? Oh never mind. Your HIV risk is nonexistent.

sniffing panties Jun 15, 2009
I like to sniff my wife panties. Am I sick?
Response from Dr. Frascino
Nope. Olfaction (the sense of smell) is one of life's pleasures and it enhances our enjoyment in the sexual as well as non-sexual realms. Are you at risk for HIV from panty sniffing? Nope! Sniff away bud. I'll repost some information from the archives from other sniffers.

Used Panties Aug 26, 2008
I found a used pair of panties at the laundromat. They were unwashed, and there was a spot on them with dried vaginal secretions. Can I get any STD's from licking it or putting my penis on the dried vaginal secretions?
Response from Dr. Frascino
Another panty thief! I had no idea knickers were so difficult to keep a hold of. I knew people stole cell phones, iPods, wallets, purses and the occasional presidential election, but soiled panties??? (See below.)
Your STD/HIV worries are completely unwarranted. Lick away! (But I really do think it's easier to clean them in the Laundromat washing machine, don'.)

Licking Panties (PANTY PARANOIA) (PANTIES, 2008) Aug 3, 2008
Hi Doc,
I didnt want to bug you so i triend to do my own research and read up on my issue but i couldnt find an exact scenario. So anyways, yesterday I was at my friends house and i made up an excuse to go to the washroom. On my way, i noticed that the laundry room door was open, so i went in. I found a pair of his moms panties on the floor, i stuffed them in my pocket and went home. When i got home i noticed there was a small yellow stain on them. I licked it and masterbated. what are the chances that i have hiv? If they were washed? or unwashed? The stain was dry.
Response from Dr. Frascino
Hello Panty-Licker-Guy,
Washed or unwashed, stained or pristine, your HIV-acquisition risk is nonexistent. HIV does not live for long outside the body. By the way, do you really think your friend's mom is HIV positive? As for your panty paranoia, you are not alone. (See below.) The only real risk I see is your getting caught head first in the dirty close hamper with your pockets stuffed full of Mom's soiled g-strings. In which case, as Ricky often said to Lucy, you'd have some 'splainin' to do!

Response from Dr. Frascino
I have often reminded readers of this forum to check the archives for the information (or reassurance) they seek, because I've answered so many questions over the years that nearly every imaginable sexual situation or fetish has been addressed. Even your question about stealing panties and using them to "burp the nephew" is not unique! Take a look below!

HIV from panties (PANTY PARANOIA) (PANTIES) May 23, 2008
I found a pair of panties in the grass on my way home a few days ago. They were dry and didn't seem to have any stains/mark on them. I'm ashamed to say that i stuffed them in my pocket and took them home to masturbate by wrapping them round my penis Could i be at risk of contracting HIV?
Response from Dr. Frascino
Another panty-guy? You guys should form a club or something. (See below.) Your HIV risk is nonexistent. Spend some time reviewing the information on this site related to how HIV is and is not transmitted. I'll reprint below some questions from other panty-fixated dudes.
Be well. Stay well.

Please select me, mentally dying over here in India dude - the pantie-stealing-guy again from Germany! Apr 17, 2008
Please select me, mentally dying over here dude - the pantie-stealing-guy again!
Please I beg you buddy, can you please answer my follow-up questions, about to marry my cousin dude - ~1 month ahead! Traditional ceremonial stuff has already started Bob, I'm right now in India! It's not Germany where I could seek help very easily.
This email very is short considering my old "Please answer, I beg you, please answer this begger!" email. So please take you merry sweat time to reply, but please reply before this Friday - they are going to set a fix wedding date dude. I truly admire you, - but somehow I have the feeling you think that I'm a bastard kind of guy, right? Whatever you Bob, please answer point 6 at least.
My final questions:
Did you read my email completely and did replied factually on the facts I have told you? or did you brush me off somehow because I am mental case? * no offense 2. Does the use or NO use of detergent play any role in these scenarios? 3. Does a cracked penis skin play any role in these scenarios? 4. What about the risk of me picking up a pantie from the street. * you can find the whole story in the SIDE NOTE section of my old email 5. What if she hand washed her clothes with no detergent? 6. In point 2 of my old email, the pantie was not fully dried AND maybe had a stain (vaginal fluids maybe, but it was no blood stain for sure) in the crotch part - does this play any role? any detergent used or not, is an unknown variable! The pantie was washed for sure, but maybe the stain did not completely wash away.
Do you think I am HIV negative considering my whole old email and current extra detail in point 6 (stain part) of this email? 8. Finally do you think that I need a HIV test? or not needed at all? Gonna marry if no HIV test is needed!
Otherwise I'll have to test before this situation gets out of hand. Please advise again.
Thank you, and I love you. Really. When I get back to my country I will try to donate, it's in my completely rational mind! Hahah hahah. I debt always. Yours only truly nuts friend.
Response from Dr. Frascino
Hello Mentally Dying Panty-Stealing Guy,
Now exactly which part of "your HIV fears are completely irrational and unwarranted" are you having difficulty understanding?
To respond to your repetitive final questions:
Yes, I read it as well as the gazillion follow-up questions you've sent since. No, I did not brush you off. But yes, you are indeed a mental case.
No risk.
No risk.
No. (HIV testing is not recommended or warranted!)
I once again advise you to add HIV to your impressive list of irrational hypochondriacal fears: testicular cancer, brain cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, etc.
I also once again strongly urge you to seek psychiatric help, because you are one screwed up nutcase.
Finally, even if you are "mentally dying" or whatever, if you have additional questions or worries about your stolen-panties antics, you should address those questions and concerns to your shrink, not me! I really have nothing else to offer you. I'll repost your original question below, just in case any of our readers are missing a pair of panties.
Dr. Bob
Please answer, I beg you, please answer this begger! Mar 31, 2008
Sir Bob,
I mailed you one pretty long HIV related, and pantie filled email a few days ago, no answer yet. I always thought I had testicular cancer before I got it screened after 10 years or so, and guess what I have no cancer - just something called "bag of worms" harmless. In these 10 years, I thought that I had brain cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, etc. and repeatedly held very long farewells at school before each summer. See how stupid and irrational I am!
I'll try to beg you, since I am not in position to actually help your NGO financially like most people are - sorry about that. So here is the real deal, I am not about to propose, already happed, got engaged over the phone and actually ABOUT to enter this arranged marriage (happily). I am from western Europe, she is from India - we are cousins. It OK in our tradition, no offense. Never even kissed a girl, and afraid about HIV, those panties are giving me sleepless nights.
Please answer my pantie related near silly questions, please these are real life questions - it's not a hoax or a joke! Wedding is about 2 months ahead!
Noticed you haven't replied to any question for a fews days got me worried. Thank god you replied on the 29th to a few people in need. Please include me in your next selection. I need you, please Sir Bob.
Below is my old email just for the record, in case you can't find it anymore. Please I beg, really depressed right now. I know it not your job to make everyone happy, but try me! _____
Hi Robert,
Sorry this may sound like all those pantie questions you have in your archive, but really I had to ask mine - since I think I have different case.
I never had sex, not even oral just or kissing, and I think these stupid encounters below might ground me for life. This issue has come up again in my mind after so many years of rest, anyways I need to know your answer now, it's killing me! By the way I have never done it again, I do not steal/ or pickup panties anymore.
I have rash on my back these days (concentrated on my upper back), started about 2 weeks ago, maybe I had all the time but it's now more prevalent. These are small red/purplish slightly raised dots, that if you press them they loose their color - because the blood goes away for a few seconds. Might be HIV rash? Anyways I am about to propose to my girl, and really worried that my life will fall apart because of this.
About 7-10 years ago:
I stole a g-string from my neighbors washing line, it was washed and dry. Put on, and later wrapped it around my penis to masturbate, due to friction I might have cracked some skin on my penis. Is there any risk of me getting Hiv? Do not know, if she used any detergent at all, all I know is that it must have been washed, since it was left to dry with her other clothes. Later I washed it for her, and put it back there!
Few weeks later I again stole a pantie from my neighbors washing line, Put on, and later wrapped it around my penis to masturbate, due to friction I did crack some skin on my penis, because I later washed my penis, and the soap was irritating on the cracked space, due to coming in contact with blood I guess. The pantie was washed for sure, but do not know if she used any detergent, or if she did a cold or hot cycle. This time around the pantie was not fully dried, not really wet also, but more than damp. Is there any risk of me getting HIV through my cracked penis skin?
I might have tried to push the little bit if of these panties in my anus, but just a tiny bit. Not sure if I did it! Cant really recall for sure! Hiv risk from this encounter?
- This neighbor of mine, is an African escort girl, so please take this in to your expert answer. AND what is she has not washing machine and hand washed her clothes, with no detergent?
This one took place about 2 years after I first started this crazy thing with my escort neighbors laundry.
- Stole a few panties from her bedroom draw, while I was helping her at her home with her TV settings. The panties where dry, do not know if they where washed or not! Although most probably they where washed, since I think that I did not notice any stains on them. I stole about 4/5 panties.
I put those panties on, one after one, sniffed those panties and wrapped one of them to masturbate with around my penis. I did not lick them! Due to friction I think I cracked some skin on the head of my penis. Can I get Hiv from this encounter?
DATE: somewhere between my first neighbor and second neighbor pantie encounters.
I once picked up a wet pantie form the street, no one was looking! I was wet from the rain or at least also from the rain, and it had a bit mod on it, I took it home and washed it with Dove mild hand soap before doing the same what I did with the other panties, including cracked penis skin. Might have touched my mouth or so, after picking it up, but I doubt I could be so stupid. And I might have cut on my hands, not sure - since I was in my teenage years, you know how rough we can be!
Lastly I do not know if the panties where washed or used panties before I took them home and cleaned them with my hand soap.
Sorry for my English, if my English where better I would have been able to make my question shorter sorry. Really sorry! Please answer my lingering questions one after one, because I not a completely rational person in these hiv/aid scenarios. And do dates really matter, because I am not sure where this SIDE NOTE pantie case really fits in the time-line? Please help, I need some rest after 7-10 years, need you for guidance, but give it straight to me OK Rob!
Worried-25-years-old-straight-guy. No offense.
Response from Dr. Frascino
Hello Panty-Stealing-Guy,
So 7-10 years ago you had an African escort living next door and on several occasions you stole her panties or g-strings, put them on, shoved them up your butt and masturbated with them to the point that the friction caused the skin on your tallywhacker to crack. Two years later you stole panties from your neighbor's bedroom drawer. You then wore them, sniffed them and again used them to masturbate to the point the friction cracked the skin on the head of your one-eyed monster.
In addition you report you thought you had testicular cancer for 10 years before being screened and told you don't. You've also thought you've had brain cancer, lung cancer and liver cancer.
You have never had sex. In fact you've never even kissed a girl, but you are now engaged via an arranged marriage to marry your cousin from India. Something about this entire scenario does not have happily-ever-after written all over it.
Your HIV fears are completely irrational and unwarranted. You can now add HIV to your impressive list of irrational hypochondriacal fears: testicular cancer, brain cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, etc.
I would very strongly urge you to seek psychiatric help. Your irrational fears of illness are impressive and considering your long history of similar episodes related to other conditions in the past it is likely this is going to be a recurring problem for you. I would also doubt you are ready for marriage, on many levels.
Good luck. (I have the feeling you're going to need it.)

Panty Paranoia! Feb 10, 2006
Hi Dr. Bob,
I'm a bit on edge this morning after doing the "walk of shame"...I hope you can help ease my mind! :)
About 4 months ago I met this guy, we'll call him Ted (in the military town where I live, that stands for "Typical Enlisted Dude," and you can use your imagination about how they got that rep). Anyway, I personally like soldiers, and Ted is awfully cute, but when I first met him his friend told me that Ted takes a different girl home every night, so I made a mental note to stay away.
Well, over the past few months I've never seen Ted bring girls home or be disrespectful in any way, and recently he started flirting with me and we've been spending more time together. I've slowly let the sexual part of our relationship progress, but Ted isn't much of a talker and we haven't discussed our sexual histories, so I'm trying to be careful.
I slept at his place last night, and wound up letting him finger me and perform oral sex on me. He was also "dry-humping" me with our pj's on, but I was still worried about pre-cum leaking through. At one point when I was naked and he had boxers on, he tried to rub against me again. I stopped him right away, but I was a little worried that fluid might have gotten on me. Overall, though, I figured I was ok with what happened (I am a loyal fan of your forum and know that these things carry minimal risk), and I told him that I'd "return the favor" once I bought condoms, and he seemed fine with that. I told him I didn't want to do anything unsafe.
So...this morning I got up to use the bathroom, and on my way back to his room what do I see, but his collection of 5 pairs of women's panties hanging from hooks on his door. DOH! Now, I consider myself a pretty cool girl, and part of me thought this was funny. But an even bigger part of me, when confronted with evidence of his sexual conquests literally right in my face, about had a heart attack. And that, of course, is where you come in! :)
I'm feeling a little anxious about what happened now, and of course he's also expecting his "turn" tonight. I hope I didn't put myself at risk for HIV...and now I need to reconsider what I want to do with him, because I'm afraid that even using a condom won't make me feel completely safe.
What do you think, Doc...should I be concerned? Right now I'm thinking a big concern for me might be choosing better partners; I'm already in the window period for a previous encounter--the same things happened (being fingered, receiving oral sex), but this guy at least didn't have a panty collection. No, he just referred to his previous women by number instead of name. Charming, no?
I hope you'll respond, because right now I feel like a wanton trollop, and not in a good way ;) Much love to you, Dr. Bob!
Response from Dr. Frascino
A "wanton trollop"??? No, no my dear, you are not a wanton trollop or unchaste cocotte or even a licentious strumpet!
I agree your HIV risk from letting "Ted" finger and perform oral sex on you is minimal at best, especially with your "I'll return the favor" tomorrow night routine.
Seeing the five pairs of panties at Ted's shouldn't really be all that much of a shock, unless you thought he was a virgin. Besides, maybe the five Fredericks of Hollywood fashions belong to Ted. Maybe instead of "Typical Enlisted Dude," Ted stands for "Transvestite Evangelical Dope." Your safer sexual practices should be the same whether or not Ted's panties collection is on display or on him, right?
Should you be concerned? Not really, at least no more so than if you never saw the panties. After all, if you hadn't seen them, would that really make Ted any safer? Of course not!
Don't be on edge doing a "walk of shame;" rather, just always play safe and you can strut home like John Travolta (circa "Saturday Night Fever," not circa "Pulp Fiction"). However, if you do spend the night with Teddy, I would suggest that you make sure you have all of your intimate apparel with you before strutting home.
Stay safe. Stay well.
Dr. Bob

5 classic ways to wear out your kids!
Here's 3 ways we were able to wear out these girls a bit before bedtime - and 2 more ways we have yet to try.
1. Sack Races
2. Crab Races
3. Target Toss
These last two we didn't have time yet to try out with our girls -
4. 3-legged Race
Now, this one is tricky but is so much fun and so good for coordination. You just need a rope or tie of some sort to tie each team together at the leg and you are ready to go.
5. Wheelbarrow Race
I really wish we had time for this one also. I'm not sure how far the kids would have been able to go, but it would have been good for some laughs I'm sure. If you've never done this, here's how you do it: Two people pair up and one is the wheelbarrow and the other is the "pusher". The wheelbarrow person gets on their hands and feet facing the ground and the pusher holds onto the wheelbarrow's feet. The wheelbarrow has to walk with their hands to the finish line while the pusher walks behind them holding their feet.
6 comments:
for some reason this post makes me long for home. I need to start wearing my kids out better, but I also haven't stopped our 8 o'clock bedtime routines even though it has been summer.ReplyDelete
We've been moving that bedtime up too! Our littlest guy isn't in Preschool until next year, but we have a second grader who hasn't been going to bed until 10:30-11:00 over summer vacation. I managed to get him settled and in bed at 9:30 last night, but he still didn't fall asleep until 10. I'm thinking sack races this evening. And maybe an obstacle course. Have you tried setting one up for the girls? I have one posted up on my blog if you'd like to see our take on it. :) Visiting from the It's Playtime hop! I would love it if you stopped by my blog to say hi! :)ReplyDelete
Mandi at boredombustingmommy.blogspot.com
and here's a link for the obstacle course post: http://boredombustingmommy.blogspot.com/2011/07/back-yard-obstacle-course.html
Love it - mine crash at 6:30 PM. We play hard during the day! My 1 year old and 5 year old enjoy wheelbarrow walking, but we don't race it. My 5 year old went to Physical Therapy when she was a baby and they started these with her before 1!ReplyDelete
A good old-fashioned foot race works well too!ReplyDelete
I'm going to have to try sack races with my 2... they'd love it!
My children are right into wheelbarrow races (after reading Dogger by Shirley Hughes) as well as eggs and spoon races. I think they would also really enjoy sack races, so we'll be putting some of our old pillowcases to good use and having some family fun. Thank you for reminding me of these great ideas.ReplyDelete
This post wore me out ;-) Great ideas- I love potato sack races! Thank you for linking up to The Sunday Showcase!ReplyDelete

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) — Asia markets finished with strong gains Friday, helped by above-forecast Chinese economic data, with Japan surging as the yen touched new multiyear lows.
Japan's Nikkei Stock Average NIK, +0.40% ended a hefty 2.9% higher. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index HSI, +0.50% rose 1.1%, and the Shanghai Composite Index 000001, +2.38% added 1.4%, with both Chinese benchmarks extending their gains late in the session.
Elsewhere in the region Australia's S&P/ASX 200 index XJO, +0.33% rose 0.3%, Taiwan's Taiex XX:Y9999 jumped 1.5%, and South Korea's Kospi 180721, -0.14% gained 0.7%.
The strong performance in Tokyo came on the back of a weaker yen, with the U.S. dollar USDJPY, +0.02% buying ¥90.02 by the end of the Japanese stock session, trading around its highest level against the yen since the summer of 2010.
Fueling the yen's losses were indications the Bank of Japan will again ease policy at the end of its policy meeting early next Tuesday.
The Nikkei business daily reported Friday that the central bank would add about ¥10 trillion ($110 billion) to its asset-buying program. It would mark the first time in more than nine years that the Bank of Japan has eased in two consecutive meetings, according to the Nikkei.
Separately, Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said Friday after a meeting with Bank of Japan Gov. Masaaki Shirakawa that the government and central bank had yet to reach a deal over an inflation target.
Reports and some analysts say the Bank of Japan will likely agree to calls for a firm 2% inflation target, up from a soft goal of 1% currently, to help combat deflation.
Currency-sensitive exporters soared following the yen's losses. Toshiba Corp. 6502, +1.10% TOSYY, +0.95% rallied 6.9%, Panasonic Corp. 6752, +0.18% US:PC improved by 5.3%, Honda Motor Co. 7267, +0.50% HMC, -0.85% finished 3.2% higher, Advantest Corp. 6857, -0.60% US:ATE climbed 8.2%, and Tokyo Electron Ltd. 8035, +1.01% TOELY, -1.63% rose 8.4%.
Sony Corp. 6758, +0.89% SNE, -0.05% thundered 12.2% upward, getting an extra boost after announcing it had reached a deal to sell its U.S. headquarters, located on Manhattan's Madison Avenue, for $1.1 billion.
Meanwhile, Chinese shares traded solidly higher, though the above-forecast data had little immediate effect on the gains.
A half-hour into trading, the Chinese statistics bureau announced that fourth-quarter gross domestic product rose 7.9% from a year earlier, beating a 7.8% projection in separate Dow Jones Newswires and Reuters surveys.
Despite the solid numbers, the broader market kept to its levels after the data, with Hong Kong-based market commentator Andrew Sullivan saying the lack of reaction was "partly due to the fact that a lot of retail money is tied up in IPOs, and institutional money is focusing on Japan as the yen weakens."
Still, separate December data helped support some sectors, as the statistics bureau reported retail sales rising 15.2%, above a Reuters forecast of 14.9%, while industrial output gained 10.3%, just above a 10.1% projection. Read: China economy grows more than expected
Some retailers and major manufacturers enjoyed a strong boost after those numbers, with footwear major Belle International Holdings Ltd. HK:1880 BELLF, +35.06% adding 3.3%, auto maker BYD Co. 1211, -2.85% BYDDF, -4.05% ahead by 4.3%, and clothing retailer Esprit Holdings Ltd. 330, +0.00% ESHDF, +0.00% up 2%.
Banks traded generally firmer in Hong Kong, as Bank of China Ltd. 3988, +0.00% BACHY, -0.18% rose 2.5%, while China Minsheng Banking Corp. 1988, -0.39% CMAKY, -8.11% surged 5% and China Merchants Bank Co. 3968, +2.31% CIHHF, -0.53% rose 2.9%.
In Shanghai, real estate was a strong spot after separate Chinese data showed home prices in the major cities posting their biggest gain in almost two years during December.
Among the top developers, Poly Real Estate Group Co. 600048, +0.77% ended 5.5% higher, while Gemdale Corp. 600383, -0.65% rose 2.9%.
Over in Australia, mining shares were strong, with Rio Tinto Ltd. RIO, +0.94% RIO, -0.27% surging 2.7% despite a 0.5% fall for its London shares RIO, -0.23% Thursday.
Late Thursday, Rio Tinto announced a $14 billion writedown against the value of its troubled aluminum division and some Mozambique coal assets, along with the departure of its Chief Executive Officer Tom Albanese. Read: Rio Tinto CEO steps down after $14 billion charge
"We see this news as short-term pain for a long-term gain," said analysts at IG Markets, in part because they believe the firm's new CEO will bring "a much stricter and disciplined approach to further investment and capital management."
Rio's rival BHP Billiton Ltd. BHP, +0.63% BHP, +0.00% rose a more modest 0.4%, while iron-ore extractor Fortescue Metals Group Ltd. FMG, +2.85% FSUMF, -2.77% jumped 3.2%, and uranium miner Paladin Energy Ltd. PDN, -3.70% PALAF, -3.30% rallied 2.1%.
In Seoul, financials were among the outperformers, with Hana Financial Group Inc. 086790, +0.94% up 2.1% and Woori Finance Holdings Co. KR:053000 WF, +1.19% rising 3.8%.
The gains in Asia came after Wall Street made a strong advance overnight, with the S&P 500 index SPX, -0.60% hitting its highest finish since late 2007, thanks to upbeat U.S. jobless and housing reports. Read:Stocks rally; S&P 500 above five-year high

Why was the US in both Afghanistan and Iraq? Responding to terrorist attacks by Iraqis on US soil?
trpmb6 wrote:Just admit, this can be a great moment in history we're all observing.
April 2016
At the regional and international level, the rise of Islamic State (ISIS) has shown the brutal face
of Sunni radical extremism to the world. The threat from ISIS has interestingly thrown Iran, US
and Israel on the same side of the fence. The unabated rise of ISIS is probably one of the major
threats which Iran faces today. On the domestic front, the 2009 demonstrations and growing
economic strain have demanded immediate correctional steps. The election of President Rouhani
was a manifestation of people's desire to see a quick end to Iran's international isolation.
Iran's Nuclear Deal: A great achievement, but hard work ahead
The announcement of the nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers is a rare moment in history that gives us hope and provides a basis for optimism. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has declared at a joint press conference with the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, there has been a win-win agreement that will benefit everyone. In short, they have made history. Ms. Mogherini said: "It is a decision that can open the way to a new chapter in international relations. I think this is a sign of hope for the entire world." The Iranian foreign minister echoed those sentiments and described the deal as "a historic moment".
Within the theory, any such truculence could be inflated into "The Bush Doctrine", or "The New American Unilateralism". The theory was this: the collapse of the Soviet Union had opened the door to the inevitability of American pre-eminence, a mantle of beneficent power that all nations except rogue nations – whatever they might say on the subject – were yearning for America to assume.
A few weeks later in the Post, the columnist Michael Kelly was sketching an even rosier outcome, based on his eccentric reading of the generation coming of age in the Middle East as a population poised by history to see the US not as its enemy but as its "natural liberator". "It is right to think that we are living in a hinge moment in history," he wrote, and then argued against those who believe that the moment is not necessarily America's to control. "But it is wrong to think that the large forces of this moment act on the hinge to shut the door against American interests." The contrary might be true, he wrote, if only the United States took the next step, which was "to destroy the regime of Saddam Hussein and liberate the people of Iraq." This would be, he said, when history really began to turn on its hinge.
Thirteen years after the invasion, Iraq is a destroyed and divided country. Isis controls major regions, sectarian division continues to tear the country apart, religious minorities have been persecuted and killed, and women have seen deterioration in all of their rights and freedoms. The recent bombing of the most famed multi-sectarian neighbourhood in Baghdad that killed 250 civilians is symbolic of the state of Iraq today.
The Chilcot report is an admirable effort to reflect on history and learn its lessons. I wish and pray that other allied forces, particularly the US, follow in the UK's footsteps. This is a crucial moment in history as Iraq and surrounding countries face further instability and insecurity. The world must listen to the Chilcot report's lessons before any further military intervention in the region.
Yeah, Trump could bring about a moment in history. Oh, a "great" moment in history? Well, I'm sure he'd call it great. He loves that word.
Bullying, using bullying?trpmb6 wrote:What I'm saying is that he has been successful at achieving what he wants to do, using the methods he has.
Oh, you noticed that.trpmb6 wrote:I do find it kind of.. i don't know, bombastic of us, as a nation that we continue to tell other nations they can't have nuke's, while we have them. If you look at it from Iran and NK's perspective it's kind of not fair really.
I think we in "the west" have been reading and watching Disney versions of too many fairy tales in which being the big, strong guy and winning the fight means you were the good guy all along. That whole Manifest Destiny thing gives me the creeps.
To truly appreciate the weight of this victory, it is worth illustrating a key concept in the history of the US's dealings with its indigenous peoples. For hundreds of years now, it has repeatedly and almost without exception sacrificed their rights in the name of progress. This is underpinned by an especially pernicious ideology: "manifest destiny".
While the origins of the phrase are disputed, the idea behind manifest destiny is relatively simple: white Americans have the God-given right and duty to spread their values and way of life across the continent and beyond. As historian Reginald Horsman noted, this phrase was merely the articulation of an ideology that had long driven the actions of European colonisers.
In the first year of his presidency, Andrew Jackson embedded this ideology into US government policy in the form of the Indian Removal Act (1830), officially endorsing the view that indigenous peoples and civilisation were incompatible.
With few exceptions, throughout the 19th and much of the 20th century the US government treated indigenous peoples as obstacles to progress. This agenda was advanced by assorted policies, from the Dawes Act (1887), which almost halved indigenous landholdings, to the introduction of boarding schools that punished indigenous children for speaking their language, to the termination policies of the 1950s and 1960s, which sought to destroy tribal sovereignty and assimilate indigenous people into "mainstream" US culture.
Yep. Creepy. Almost makes someone who saw all the fuss about Iraq being behind 9/11 back in 2002 wonder why we're suddenly hearing all this fuss about iran being behind 9/11. Heck, if I knew about Agent Orange and My Lai and Fallujah I might even go so far as to say I don't trust the US government and I think using "free" to mean "under US control" is downright dishonest, so it's a good job I never found out about any of them, isn't it? Probably also a good job I didn't find out about Agent Orange while eating, or US foreign policy might owe me a new keyboard and carpet, and I doubt they'd pay. Even the US Navy people exposed to the stuff are still trying to get compensation for it, so I'd be a long way back in the queue.


text: Wednesday, April 27, 2011 APTA Seeks Member Input for ACO Comments To ensure that APTA's comments on the proposed regulations on Accountable Care Organizations (ACO) are comprehensive and appropriately address concerns specific to physical therapy, APTA is soliciting member input on the new model of care and the proposals that address the federal laws related to it. On March 31, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released the long-awaited ACO proposed rule. In creating the proposed ACO model, CMS worked closely with the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Inspector General, Federal Trade Commission, Department of Justice, and Internal Revenue Service to align and implement a shared savings program that did not conflict with existing federal laws in the area of fraud and abuse, antitrust, and tax exemptions. Therefore, the proposed ACO regulations are promulgated in 4 separate rulemakings: (1) CMS Medicare Shared Savings Program Proposed Rule, (2) CMS/Office of the Inspector General Waiver of Fraud and Abuse Certain Provisions Notice with Comment Period, (3) Federal Trade Commission/Department Of Justice Anti-trust Enforcement Policy Notice with Comment Period, and (4) Internal Revenue Service Request for Information on Tax-Exempt Status for Shared Savings Programs. APTA's comments will primarily focus on 10 subject areas: quality promoting evidence based medicine health information technology legal and governance structure of ACOs leadership and management of ACOs ACO distribution of shared savings and losses ACO marketing guidelines program integrity requirements for ACOs (audit activities) fraud and abuse requirements for ACOs (including physician self-referral, and anti-kickback rules) safeguards for physical therapists operating outside an ACO APTA has summarized the provisions of each proposed rulemaking for association members. A new podcast also provides highlights of the ACO model of care. APTA will submit comments to CMS by the June 6 deadline. E-mail your input to APTA at email@example.com by May 15. In your e-mail, indicate which of the above subject areas that your comments are regarding. Comments Concerns from a private practice independent physcial therapy business onwer: (1) relaxing anti-trust regulations to allow for collusion between physician groups and hospitals spell trouble for indpendent practice owners.(2) in Oregon they are developing CCO's (coordinated care organizations) initially for medicaid and medicare patients soon to follow all state and city employees. Larger groups; hospital based PT programs, POPTs and intra-state national companies will leverage out independent PT practitioners with contracted volume discounts, case rate plans and capitated contracts. This leads to PT extenders providing the bulk of care and those that provide the least care survive financially. Is this a future to embrace/support?

Tigers unlikely to land Astros closer Qualls
DETROIT -- The Tigers have long been interested in Astros closer Chad Qualls, even before he signed with Houston last winter. Their latest efforts to acquire him appear likely to meet the same fate as their previous ones.
"I don't think there's anything to talk about," manager Brad Ausmus said Tuesday. "As far as I know, Tigers baseball stance, there's really nothing to it."View Full Game Coverage
DETROIT -- The Tigers have long been interested in Astros closer Chad Qualls, even before he signed with Houston last winter. Their latest efforts to acquire him appear likely to meet the same fate as their previous ones.
"I don't think there's anything to talk about," manager Brad Ausmus said Tuesday. "As far as I know, Tigers baseball stance, there's really nothing to it."View Full Game Coverage
Qualls told Houston reporters on Tuesday he was aware of the claim put in by the Tigers, first reported by MLB Network on Tuesday morning. That followed FOX Sports' report Monday evening that Qualls had been claimed on revocable waivers.
Under terms of revocable waivers, the Astros have 48 hours (thus, until Wednesday) to work out a trade, pull Qualls back off waivers or let him go to the Tigers. The third option is a virtual certainty not to happen. Detroit must put together a deal, or Houston has to hold onto Qualls for the rest of the season.
As of Tuesday evening, indications suggest the Astros are not inclined to move Qualls.
The Tigers were interested in Qualls last month before the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline, but the Astros were reticent to deal. The two teams worked out a deal last summer for the Astros' previous closer, Jose Veras, in exchange for outfielder Danry Vasquez and pitcher David Paulino. With Qualls under a multi-year contract, rather than a rental, the Astros would be expected to seek more-advanced prospects.
Houston had a pro scout in Reading, Pa., while Double-A Erie was in town this past weekend. The SeaWolves have a selection of high-rising prospects, including slugging outfielder Steven Moya, gifted hitting infielder Devon Travis and reliever Angel Nesbitt.
However the Tigers -- who parted with highly ranked prospects Jake Thompson and Corey Knebel for Joakim Soria in July -- appear unlikely to do the same for another reliever.
"I could have signed there in the offseason, and obviously they tried to trade for me at the Deadline, and with me being put on waivers, why wouldn't they take another chance now?" Qualls told MLB.com's Brian McTaggart. "Yet again, nothing's changed. I'm going to go to work as usual and do my thing."
One potential factor is the sentiment of Qualls, who does not have veto power but has said more than once that he wants to remain an Astro. Qualls told reporters in Houston on Tuesday that he nearly signed a multi-year contract with the Tigers last December but chose to stay close to his Austin, Texas, home and sign a two-year, $5.95 million deal to return to the Astros, his original organization.
Qualls' contract includes a $3.5 million club option for 2016.
If anyone on the Tigers would know about Qualls, it's Ausmus, who caught Qualls in Houston from 2004 to 2007. If there's a deal brewing, however, it's news to Ausmus.
"Waiver claims this time of year, they don't really mean anything," Ausmus said. "I know there's been a lot said about it, but there's really nothing that I know about, quite frankly, other than what I've read.
Said Qualls: "I'm sure he wants me. I think around the Trade Deadline there were some other guys that were getting traded and I was just messing around and he's like, 'Well, if you would have just signed here in the first place, we wouldn't have to trade for anybody.' Just typical Brad Ausmus. Like I said before, I want to stay here and be a Houston Astro until I retire."
The 36-year-old Qualls is 14-for-17 in save chances in Houston to go with a 3.07 ERA, 46 hits and 38 strikeouts over 44 innings. He has walked just five batters this season, and two were intentional. The 11-year Major League veteran has been used to protect leads anywhere from the seventh to ninth innings, much like the role the Tigers had for Soria.
A trade would allow the Tigers to have Qualls fill in for Soria, who was in Detroit's bullpen for two weeks before a left oblique strain landed him on the 15-day disabled list. Soria is throwing off flat ground and is "trending upward" toward a return, according to Ausmus, but still has to throw off a mound. His return is on the horizon, but not imminent.
The Tigers have tried to fill the void with former Orioles and A's closer Jim Johnson, who signed a Minor League deal with Detroit on Aug. 7. Johnson earned a win at Tampa Bay a week ago with a scoreless 10th inning despite walking two Rays, but gave up four runs in a nine-run sixth inning in Friday's 20-6 loss to the Twins. Johnson came back Sunday at Minnesota and retired all five batters he faced, his longest perfect outing since April 11 with Oakland.

As I wrote about last year, our family tradition of placing each childs photo on our Christmas tree for that past year continues. Here are the 2010 ornaments and I love looking at our tree and seeing the things that are really important on display. Words added this year "pray" and "hope" as these have been words that have shown us much of Gods favor and glory through many many answered prayers. We continue to hold onto Hope as we live everyday...Hope that those who don't know our Lord and Savoir will, Hope that He will come back again and take us to a Heaven that is beyond our comprehension, Hope that He always comes through on His promises. Our Jesus/manger ornament is important to remind us why we celebrate Christmas at all. Afterall, it is the birth and coming of our Lord we are chosing to celebrate. Hand-made ornaments from the kids leave warm tingles on my heart as we see them each year pulled out of the ornament box. There are a few red sequin heart ornaments on our tree as well symbolizing our greatest commandment - "You shall love the Lord your God with all yur heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." Matthew 22:37 ESV. Our next commandment is "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22:38 ESV . So a whole lotta lovin' to do!

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a long-lasting, debilitating fatigue that is not relieved by rest. The fatigue can be increased by physical or mental activities and can interfere with daily activities from basic daily tasks to job functions. Since there is no cure for CFS, treatment focuses on reducing the symptoms of CFS, reducing anxiety, and decreasing the impact on daily life. Treatment approaches may include medical care, mental health support, and lifestyle changes.
Researchers from London examined the benefits of cognitive and physical therapies for patients with CFS. The study, published in Lancet, found that exercise therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy can help reduce fatigue when added to standard medical treatment.
About the Study
The randomized trial included 641 adults with CFS. All of the participants received specialist medical care including information leaflets, advice, and medication to help manage symptoms. They were then randomized to one of four treatment groups:
- Graded exercise therapy (gradual increase in duration and intensity of aerobic exercise)
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (a form of therapy that focuses on how you feel and respond to thoughts)
- Adaptive pacing therapy (strategies to help adapt to illness with planning, pacing, prioritizing activity)
- No add on therapy
Participants that had graded exercise therapy or cognitive behavior therapy had greater improvement in fatigue and physical function compared to adaptive pacing therapy or specialist medical care alone. Adaptive pacing therapy alone did not show greater improvements compared to specialist medical care alone.
How Does This Affect You?
The quality of a study can help to determine the reliability of the results. In this case, the design of the study and the methods used to complete the study are of high quality. This means the results are very reliable and cognitive behavior therapy and graded exercise should be considered for people with CFS.
The exact impact of CFS can vary from person to person, as well as your reaction to treatment. A gradually-increasing exercise program can help improve your physical stamina and health to lessen the impact of CFS, while the behavioral therapy can help you develop coping strategies to manage current fatigue. Work with your doctor or therapists to tackle the symptoms that are most troublesome, and adapt your therapy as your symptoms change.
