Emotionally draining. Happy ending.
I don't even know where to begin, but to say that last week was one of the most draining that I've experienced. I felt like I was a rubber ball thrown from one wall of emotion (terrified) to another (scrambling, nervous) to another (relieved, elated) to yet another (insanely enraged beyond all imagination).
Which is why I stayed away from my blog until tonight. BECAUSE UNDER THAT TYPE OF EMOTIONAL INSTABILITY, I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SNAPPED EVERY SINGLE THREAD OF RATIONALITY INTO THIRDS.
Really. I'm not exaggerating.
Oh, where do I begin?
|This is the little 4 year old boy who's been complaining of headaches and "Mommy, my bed is twirling" for the past few months.
So, we took him to the doc:
And we went home and just kept careful watch of what might trigger these episodes.
A few weeks later, I brought him back to the doc, prompted by Andrew's teacher who mentioned to me that he was complaining about his head.
Doc: "I think we should get a brain MRI because blahblah blah TUMOR blah
There probably were a few more blahs in that conversation, interjected by several OH SHITs. But who's keeping record?
Armed with lots of lab orders, phone numbers and a bunch of big, fancy medical terms that I quickly scribbled down, I just went on autopilot, arranging for specialists, labwork, insurance approvals and the MRI.
Because our insurance plan is more stringent than a hamster's ass (being self-employed or a small business really sucks for affordable options), I spent hours on the phone getting the runaround. It was no fault of the insurance company – they have their rules and I signed paperwork agreeing to follow them. And of all the parties involved, my nurse case manager was most helpful.
But Andrew's doctor's office held the ONLY key to getting all the other tests and appointments approved. AND THEY KEPT PASSING THAT DAMN KEY AROUND THEIR OFFICE. At noon, Rick had possession of the key, but oops! He's out to lunch. Call back. Then he passed it to nurse Kathy who then did a quarter-turn underhanded toss to office manager just seconds before her 2-minute time out. Leave a message. Then office manager Stacy dribbled it to center field, fake right, fake left and shot it towards the basket, only to be intercepted by what's-her-name the receptionist. Call back.
Oh, if you can't tell. I don't know jack shit about basketball. Whatever.
Finally, I got the brain MRI scheduled at the hospital for Tuesday morning. But wait, the a bumbling nurse calls Monday afternoon saying they had a scheduling goof and the next opening was in 4 weeks. Would we mind waiting?
hmmmm…it's just a possible FUCKING TUMOR in my kid's head. What do you think???
So after my little hissy fit, they gave in an told me to come tomorrow morning 7am sharp. We get there at 7am. We checked in and waited. And waited. And waited. An hour and half later, still waiting. Keep in mind that Andrew wasn't allowed to have a drop of fluid or anything to eat since midnight. My poor baby is thirsty, "a little sip of water please, Mommy?"
I go ask. "Oh, I'm sorry. We're missing some paperwork from his file. We have to wait until your doctor's office opens at 8:30 to get the paper faxed over"
and then they forgot about us.
sigh (wishing either I had some Valium or a bag of petrified brussel sprouts to pelt the staff with)
Finally. Andrew's name was called. Oh my little precious baby was scared. Scared of blood, scared of needles, scared of the mask that they would have to put over his mouth to make him go night-night for a while so that they could get the MRI of his brain. He was so terrified he started shaking, screaming, crying, hyperventilating. He didn't want the doctors, the nurses, the instruments. He just wanted to go home and hide in bed. So the doctor on duty gave him a "cousin of Valium" to make him sleepy, woozy and more cooperative…just so they could at least get him to lay still enough to hook up all the monitoring equipment and the dreadful mask to sedate him.
I'm surprised that they didn't offer me a whiff of the stuff either, though I was tempted to wrestle that mask away from the nurse and suck in a few deep, long breaths before security would come arrest me. But I was chicken shit and didn't.
I stayed with Andrew up until he was sedated and then was escorted out. I have no idea how long I was in the waiting room, but kept checking in with the front desk just in case they forgot about us AGAIN. That waiting room is hell. Not only was the TV stuck on some political bullshit channel but I was going through all possible worst case scenarios in my mind.
After a loooong time, a nurse came to me and said simply, "Andrew is awake. Come with me." She led me towards a room where a nurse was holding a small, shrieking, thrashing child. The cry was unfamiliar and that was not my child. I know my child's cry and that is not Andrew.
But it was Andrew. I had never heard this cry before because I am a mother who does everything possible to shield and protect my children from harm, hurt and suffering. And this was the first time Andrew experienced this much fear. It took about a half hour to calm his thrashing body about half the hospital's supply of Spiderman stickers to bribe him to stop crying.
We wobbled outta that hospital, his legs still unsure of supporting his body as the effects of the sedation medication was still wearing off.
And then began the wait for the results.
I prayed to Buddha that they didn't forget about us again.
The phone rings that afternoon and it was the original doctor, Andrew's primary pediatrician, you know, the blah blah blah TUMOR doctor.
"MRI came back fine. Andrew's brain is normal. Maybe he just needs glasses. We should get him an eye exam"
[this portion of the blog had to be edited out due to extreme foul language]
Excuse me, but a FUCKING EYE EXAM? Let's see if this makes any sense.
What do you think should have happened first, a $200 eye exam? or a $5,000 brain MRI that absolutely terrified and haunted Andrew so badly he's got nightmares every single night since?
hmmm….can someone hand me that tennis racket? Because I think I might just have a bunch of petrified brussel sprouts stuffed in my left pocket.
We're in Los Angeles right now, so the eye exam will have to wait until we return. But I do think Andrew would look pretty damn smart in glasses. Ok, these are really plastic play goggles from this toy.
Anyways, we're doing great – the boys are having so much fun at PoPo (my mom) and GongGong's (my dad) house – especially jumping on OPF (other people's furniture) as they discovered you get a higher bounce and a faster lift on nice, new, expensive leather couches.
We'll be here for another week visiting, me working, kids exploring….while Scott stays home to work, keep my garden alive (TOMATOES! TOMATOES! TOMATOES!) and try to win a nice, cushy seat in this year's World Series of Poker, because yeah, we could certainly use an extra $35 million. 🙂 The kids and I miss him terribly! But thanks to email, text, phone calls, instant messaging, we bug him every 15 minutes.
EDIT: While it might seem I might be upset at the medical system or insurance system, I'm not. Yes, they are broken, but I can't name one country that has a perfect system. I was just upset at the entire situation and specific moronic people that get paid to "toss the key" around. I do understand that doctors practice under such great risk for malpractice suits – so yeah, if I were a doctor, I'd probably cover my ass too. I am very grateful that the tests were negative and relieved that at least no matter what, we can rule out the big "T" word. But damn. I need a new pediatrician!

Bruce Lee to be bonus character in upcoming EA Sports UFC
Bruce Lee is making his debut in the octagon this summer.
The martial arts legend will be featured in EA Sports UFC as a bonus fighter. Lee will be available to play in the flyweight, bantamweight, featherweight and lightweight divisions.
Creative director Brian Hayes on why they chose Bruce Lee:
"I feel like this is the most ridiculous question. Why put Bruce Lee in a UFC game? It's. Bruce. Lee…
"You have the premier organization in the fastest growing sport in the world, the UFC; and the most iconic martial artist in the history of the world, Bruce Lee — a martial artist renowned for his philosophies that laid the groundwork for modern mixed martial arts. I can't conceive of a universe where bringing these two things together doesn't make sense. I know there are going to be countless fans that feel the exact same way and they will be eager play with such a legend in the UFC Octagon. I am one of them."
There are two ways to unlock Lee in the game. One is to pre-order, and the other is to beat the career mode on pro difficulty or higher.
EA Sports UFC is slated for a June 17 release date on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Glenwood Springs: dismembered body found 5 years ago
It's now been five years since a discovery near tiny tourist enclave Glenwood Springs terrified residents.
The mystery began on a warm June 12, 2009 day in an apple orchard about five miles west of Glenwood Springs.
A teen-age boy who worked for the orchard owned by Kirstie Steiner found something wrapped in plastic buried under a stack of branches.
A dismembered female body was inside at least one tattered plastic bag.
The head had light brown hair with blonde highlights.
It was obvious that animals had been tearing at the bag to get at the remains.
The location where someone had dumped the body was about 20 feet off of Canyon Creek Road and about a quarter mile from Interstate 70.
A criminal investigation was begun. The Garfield County Sheriff's Office scoured the orchard.
A long line of investigators walked through the orchard searching for clues.
Garfield County Sheriff Lou Vallario told reporters at the time that they had no record of any missing girls that could fit the description of the murder victim.
The body was so small that speculation was that the remains were those of a pre-adolescent child.
The discovery of a dismembered body sent shock waves through the small community.
Rumors were being reported by regional newspapers that the girl's torso was not found and that body parts were discovered in multiple bags.
Vallario tried to calm fears. That Friday evening he said that "people should not necessarily be afraid. We do not have any reason to believe we have a maniac running around killing people."

Prescription short-acting beta2-agonists for
asthma include:
Short-acting beta2-agonists are available in inhaled,
pill, liquid, and injectable forms. The inhaled form is available in
inhalers (MDIs) and as a liquid for compressor-driven
nebulizers. Always read the directions to be sure you
are using the inhaler correctly.
Short-acting beta2-agonists are
bronchodilators. They relax the muscles lining the
airways that carry air to the lungs (bronchial tubes) within 5 minutes. This increases airflow and makes it easier to breathe. They relieve
asthma symptoms for 3 to 6 hours. They do not control
Short-acting beta2-agonists are used
Using the inhaled form of a short-acting beta2-agonist is preferred
for asthma treatment, because it:
Medicine treatment for asthma depends on a person's age,
his or her type of asthma, and how well the treatment is controlling asthma
Your doctor will work with you to help find the number and
dose of medicines that work best.
Short-acting beta2-agonists are the
treatment of choice for relieving symptoms during asthma attacks and for
treating intermittent asthma symptoms.footnote 1 They are also
used to relieve symptoms caused by exercise.
Research shows
that combining short-acting beta2-agonists and ipratropium in acute, severe
asthma episodes, compared with using only beta2-agonists, resulted in:footnote 2, footnote 3
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call your doctor if you have:
Common side effects of this medicine include:
Side effects of short-acting
beta2-agonists are more likely to occur when using the pill, liquid, or
injectable forms than when using the inhaled form.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
Because short-acting beta2-agonists work quickly to reduce
symptoms, people sometimes overuse these medicines instead of using the
slower-acting, long-term medicines. But
overuse of quick-relief medicines has harmful effects,
such as reducing the future effectiveness of these medicines.footnote 4
If you need to use
short-acting beta2-agonists on more than 2 days a week (except before
exercise), you may need to start or increase long-term therapy. Discuss this
with your doctor.
Try to avoid giving your child an inhaled
medicine when he or she is crying. In this case, not as much medicine is
delivered to the lungs.
Colds or other
upper respiratory infections can cause asthma episodes in some people. Some
doctors recommend that people who have intermittent asthma use a short-acting
beta2-agonist at the first sign of cold symptoms.
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to get pregnant.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

I've already subscribed
This week on Operation Kino, the movie industry has let us down severely, with pretty much nothing in wide release this week holding our interest. Instead we review a movie opening on just 4 screens this weekend, the very worthy Martha Marcy May Marlene, then dedicate segment three to our first-ever trivia game! Find out how David, Dave and Patches fare when quizzed on memorable movie quotes from this year's biggest hits. Before that, though, we've got a lightning round dedicated to on-screen revolutions, and then tidbits, in which David talks about the arty Emily Browning movie Sleeping Beauty, Katey talks in vague terms about Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Patches gives you the rundown on New York Comic Con and the wonderment that is Tom Hiddleston, and Da7e has a bone to pick with Target and their strategy of releasing the new Harry Potter documentary with the Blu-Ray. We wrap things up, as always, with your Lightning Round answers for dessert.
Take a listen below and find your downloading options; for more from all of us, you can follow the show (@opkino), Da7e (@da7e), David (@davidehrlich or @CriterionCorner), Patches (@misterpatches) and me (@kateyrich) on Twitter.

Last time we checked on on Dave Coleman and his Hayabusa-powered Miata project, the Miatabusa Madmen had their new engine installed. Were they satisfied with the 161-pound weight savings? Not at all!
You see, there's nothing like a bunch of engineers when it comes to crazy obsessions with small numbers. Numbers, say, like the weight of a car's license plate frame, mounting brackets, and the plates themselves.

Locally, this year marks the 33rd performance of "Messiah" by the Southwest Symphony and Chorale with the Community Chorus in St. George. The choir and soloists are rehearsed and prepared by Robert Briggs and the concert is directed by Gary Caldwell.
The music for Messiah was completed in 24 days of swift composition. The autograph score's 259 pages show some signs of haste such as blots, scratchings-out, unfilled bars and other uncorrected errors, but according to the music scholar Richard Luckett the number of errors is remarkably small in a document of this length.
In the Christian tradition, the figure of the "Messiah" or redeemer is identified with the person of Jesus, known by his followers as the Christ or "Jesus Christ". Handel's Messiah has been described by the early-music scholar Richard Luckett as "a commentary on [Jesus Christ's] Nativity, Passion, Resurrection and Ascension", beginning with God's promises as spoken by the prophets and ending with Christ's glorification in heaven.[ In contrast with most of Handel's oratorios, the singers in Messiah do not assume dramatic roles, there is no single, dominant narrative voice, and very little use is made of quoted speech. In his libretto, Jennens's intention was not to dramatise the life and teachings of Jesus, but to acclaim the "Mystery of Godliness", using a compilation of extracts from the Authorized (King James) Version of the Bible, and from the Psalms included with the Book of Common Prayer (which are worded slightly differently from their King James counterparts).
The three-part structure of the work approximates to that of Handel's three-act operas, with the "parts" subdivided by Jennens into "scenes". Each scene is a collection of individual numbers or "movements" which take the form of recitatives, arias and choruses. There are two instrumental numbers, the opening Sinfony in the style of a French overture, and the pastoral Pifa, often called the "pastoral symphony", at the mid-point of Part I.
In Part I, the Messiah's coming and the Virgin Birth are predicted by the Old Testament prophets. The annunciation to the shepherds of the birth of the Christ is represented in the words of St Luke's Gospel. Part II covers Christ's Passion and his death, his Resurrection and Ascension, the first spreading of the Gospel through the world, and a definitive statement of God's glory summarised in the "Hallelujah". Part III begins with the promise of Redemption, followed by a prediction of the Day of Judgment and the "general Resurrection", ending with the final victory over sin and death and the acclamation of Christ. According to the musicologist Donald Burrows, much of the text is so allusive as to be largely incomprehensible to those ignorant of the biblical accounts. For the benefit of his audiences, Jennens printed and issued a pamphlet explaining the reasons for his choices of scriptural selections.

Concise writing is clear writing. By definition, concise writing communicates in as few words as necessary. Everything in a sentence other than the subject, verb, and object is description. Descriptions cause most of the "fluff" in sentences, but, fortunately, some simple strategies will help you write concise descriptions.
Simplifying ownership
You can show ownership in two ways, with a possessive or a prepositional phrase. Prepositional phrases always make writing less concise. Using possessives, such as the apostrophe-S, will make writing more concise.
Example 1.a, prepositional phrase: The purpose of the CEO is to create an environment for efficiency. (12 words)
Example 1.b, possessive: The CEO's purpose is to create an environment for efficiency. (10 words)
In example 1, revising the prepositional phrase reduces the sentence's word count by 2 words. This might not seem significant, but it is. First, if you do this multiple times in a document, the overall effect is more concise writing. You will have removed many unnecessary words. Second, the writing will be stronger overall because you will have removed the weak prepositional phrases.
I only endorse prepositional phrases for ownership when the "owner" is a phrase of 3 or more words. With the possessive, the sentence may be confusing or awkward because the sentence has multiple descriptive words before naming the thing being described. Each case needs to be considered carefully. In example 2, the sentence with the prepositional phrase may be better than sentence with the possessive.
Example 2.a, prepositional phrase: The design of the ergonomic latex foam chair compensates for spine curvature.
Example 2.b, possessive: The ergonomic latex foam chair's design compensates for spine curvature. Continue reading

Workflow on login
Submitted by anon. on Mon, 2009-05-25 06:53
Don't know how easy this would be to do Maki, but I have a suggestion re workflow. The problem is this: On my work computer, after the weekend, I click on the "Forum topics with new activity" link and I get a huge list because it's been 3 days since I used the site on this computer and it's logged me out. Then there isn't a link to log in again, so I have to click on Forum/Community to get a login link, then when I DO log in, it takes me to my profile. Where there isn't a link to new activity, so I have to go to Forum/Community again, then I can get to where I wanted to go in the first place. A login link on each page would be good, and easy to do. Having the thing remember where you were aiming for in the first place and take you there when you've logged in would be even better, but might not be so easy, so it can be gone without if necessary.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – The road had not been a friendly place for the Georgia Southwestern Hurricanes in 2012 as they had recorded only one win in their 14 away games. Their 3-2 loss at Saint Leo University (17-8) was their closest road loss of the season.
The first threat of the day for the GSW offense came in the second inning of the game. Jarrod Taylor would walk, which was followed by back-to-back two-out singles by Kyle Nobles and Chase Young. However with the bases loaded, second baseman Les Cromer was unable to bring home Taylor as he chopped out to third base to end the inning.
Saint Leo would do more than threaten in their half of the second inning as they came out swinging with a Zach Miller double and an Anthony Santa single to open the inning. Brendan Collins and Daniel Torres would record RBI's behind Miller and Santa to give Saint Leo the 2-0 lead after two innings.
The Hurricanes would muster a response in the following inning as they took advantage of a Taed Moses throwing error at third base for SLU. The mistake allowed Michel Coffey to reach base and advance to second. John Duran would single in the next at-bat to put runners on the corners with no outs. The set-up would garner one run for GSW as Beau Parker world drive in Coffey from third on a deep fly ball to left field. Unfortunately, the Blue & Gold would not advance another runner across home plate in the inning.
Georgia Southwestern would strike again in the fifth inning as Beau Parker would again record a RBI as he would drive in John Duran. The inning would end as Parker would be caught stealing during the next at-bat to keep the score tied at two runs apiece after four and a half innings.
Saint Leo would look to threaten right away in the fifth inning after both of the first two hitters reached safely. Torres and Moses would be moved over via a Ryan Brnovich bunt. With runners in scoring position and only one out, GSW starter Trent Franzago would tip-toe around the jam and get out of the inning unscathed after recording a strikeout and fly ball out.
A potential go-ahead run for the Hurricanes would be left stranded on third in the sixth inning. Randall Sheffield would reach base on an error, steal second and advance to third on a wild pitch to lead off the inning. He would not pass third as all three of the Hurricanes behind Sheffield would be unable to score the left fielder.
The go-ahead run of the game would be scored by Saint Leo as Brendan Collins would single to lead off the inning and take second on a balk by GSW starter Trent Franzago. He would come around on a Dustin Brown triple.
The Hurricanes would go down in the top of ninth one-two-three to end any comeback attempt and finalize the 3-2 loss.
Although he would earn the loss in the decision, senior Trent Franzago would make his best start since his six innings, three hits and no earned runs start on opening day against then-nationally ranked Barry University on February 4th. The Fort Valley native finished the night going eight innings while scatter eight hits, giving up three earned runs and striking out four Lions.
The loss sets the Georgia Southwestern record to 4-23 (2-12 PBC). The Hurricanes will look to even the series before going back to Americus tomorrow, Wednesday, March 20th with first pitch coming at 4:00 p.m.

Sheikh claimed UBS failed to pay him for helping it land a deal with Kuwait telco Zain
A Dubai court has dismissed a Kuwaiti sheikh's $21.4 million claim against UBS in which he alleged the Swiss bank failed to pay him for helping it become lead arranger on a $9 billion asset sale by Kuwaiti telecom operator Zain.
The case highlighted the complexity of doing business in the Gulf, where personal connections to high-ranking officials or executives are often valued in deal making.
But in a damning written verdict, Justice Sir David Steel described Sheikh Meshal - a member of Kuwait's ruling family - as a witness in whose evidence it was "difficult to have confidence ... his evidence in some respects did not just appear evasive but was demonstrably unreliable".
Sheikh Meshal had claimed UBS recruited him with a verbal contract in July 2009 to help scupper French media conglomerate Vivendi's bid to acquire Zain's operations in about 15 African countries. UBS denied the allegation.
Vivendi called off the talks later that month. India's Bharti Airtel subsequently bought Zain's African assets for $9 billion in 2010. UBS advised Zain on the deal.
A written mandate from February 2010 detailing UBS's role - included in the Dubai court's judgment - showed the bank would be paid $22.5 million in fees should a deal be concluded.
Justice Steel said he accepted the evidence of former Zain chief executive Saad Al Barrak that Zain had a long-standing relationship with UBS and had sought its advice from the outset.
"There was no motive for the bank to seek help in its engagement as financial advisor to Zain let alone at substantial financial cost," Justice Steel wrote.
"The claimant has fallen well short of establishing that any oral agreement was entered into ... let alone on the terms alleged. Accordingly the claim must fail."
A Zain spokesman said the company "was in no position to comment on court cases involving third parties".
UBS declined to comment, while Sheikh Meshal's lawyers Lutfi & Co were not immediately available for comment.

Top 10 Motorcycles For Tall Riders – Adventure Bikes
1. Kawasaki KLR650
The Kawasaki KLR650 may well be the most underrated adventure bike on the planet. Don't believe me? Look at the photo above, from our journeyman Fonzie's eight-part trip to South America and back. The 33-hp KLR performed like a champ, easily gobbling up the miles of torn up pavement, hidden fire roads and secret trails he encountered along the way. There's gobs of aftermarket support for the KLR, too, so you can easily turn it into whatever bike you want, for whatever trip you have in mind.
At $6499, KLRs hardly break the bank. Factor in its 35-inch seat height, and budding NBA-players-turned-motorcyclists will find the cost-to-leg-room ratio highly in their favor. Adding to that equation, Cycle-Ergo rates the knee bend at 92 degrees, the most relaxed on this list. If that still isn't enough, the aforementioned vastness of the aftermarket is sure to have solutions to make even the tallest riders feel at home on a KLR. If an affordable, back-to-basics, go-anywhere, tall-person-friendly motorcycle is high on your priority list, look no further than the Kawasaki KLR650.
Have another suggestion? Say so in the comments section below.

Last Updated on Wednesday, 29 July 2015 16:38
The Pullman Police Department Reserve Officer Program offers those interested the opportunity to serve as a law enforcement officer, while still working in their current line of employment or attending classes full time. The Pullman Police Department Reserve Police Officer program was established for the purpose of providing volunteer police personnel to supplement the regular police force, benefiting both the City and the reserve personnel.
The region has a Reserve Academy approximately every two years. The Pullman Police Department will be taking applications in the Spring of 2016 for reserve officer candidates. The next regional reserve academy will tentatively start late in 2016,to finish in mid 2017.
Some of the requirements to be a Pullman Police Reserve:
- Be twenty-one years of age
- Possess a valid Washington State Driver's license with a good driving record
- A High School Diploma or G.E.D.
- No Felony or Domestic Violence Arrests
- Be a U.S. citizen
- Pass a written test, oral board, and physical agility test
- Pass a physical, psychological, and polygraph examination
- Pass a background investigation
- Successful completion of an approved Reserve Police Officer Academy
A Reserve Police Officer Academy is a minimum of 246 hours in length. Training in the reserve academy covers topics such as:
- Criminal Law and Procedure
- Communications Skills
- Crisis Intervention
- Defensive Tactics
- Patrol Procedures
- Criminal Investigations
- Evidence Law
- Firearms, including range qualifications
- E.V.O.C. (Emergency Vehicle Operations Course)
- Use of Force (including TASER and pepper spray)
- Ethics
- Civil Liability
- First Aid
Graduates of the Reserve Academy must then pass a state certification examination to receive the state's basic reserve officers certificate.
Upon successful completion of the academy process, candidates are sworn in as reserve officers for the Pullman Police Department. While on duty, reserve officers have the same enforcement authority as full-time police officers. After graduation, reserve officers continue their training with field training officers in the same manner as full-time career personnel. Reserve officers are non-compensated members of the department who assist in various law enforcement capacities including patrol, special events, traffic enforcement and other duties as assigned.
If you have any questions about the Pullman Police Department Reserve Officer program, please feel free to contact Sgt. Sam Sorem at (509) 334-0802 or by email by clicking here.

Dear Buck:
Driving up on Wilson Avenue at 47th Street, I saw a traffic signal mounted sideways, horizontally, with the green lens on the left and the red one on the right. A sign said "traffic signal head test location." What's going on there? Are we going to see those all over town now?
Signed, Vertically Inclined
Dear Inclined: Have you ever noticed, on those rare occasions that we have a wind-driven snowstorm, that snow obscures the traffic signal lenses at intersections? That might not happen often, but when it does it can lead to a big traffic snarl.
City traffic engineers are experimenting with solutions to that problem, and one possible fix is the one you saw. The visors on the lights sometimes funnel the snow right into the lens, so somebody had the idea that turning it sideways would prevent that build-up.
Trouble is, nobody knows yet if it works. The last snowstorm was without much wind. But perhaps by winter's end the engineers will know whether the tilted signals solve the problem. Even if they do, is it worth the time and trouble to change them all? That's a question for later.

Tiger's Return Next Week: Ready or Sleepy?
"Elin and our new son Charlie are doing great," Tiger said at his Web site. "I've enjoyed my time at home with the family and appreciate everyone's support and kind wishes."
Is Tiger ready?
"I'm now ready to play again," he said.
OK. There you go.
PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem is also ready.
"We are delighted that Tiger is returning to competition and look forward to watching him compete next week," Finchem said in a statement.
But maybe Tiger also just needs a good night's sleep. You know?

Im glad to see this return, this does bring some excitement in the air. I do have to question the early return, is this a complete healing. Tiger has shown us in the past that he will play while in serious pain and or sick conditions. Even that last tournament I felt that he should have sat it out, but he pushed it. Is this the case here? I hope not, anyway im looking forward to seeing him back in action.
- Jeff Goodman (Goods) said...
Love the Travellodge ad. Freakin' sweet!
I look at Tiger's injury from a fantasy football perspective.
That is, if I know a player is coming off knee surgery, I won't draft him until next season, as knee injuries truly don't fully heal until after 18 months, and even then, the player may still not be what they used to.
We'll see what Tiger can do, though. Perhaps he's the anomaly.
- The Armchair Golfer said...
MH: I agree that Tiger shouldn't come back until his knee is ready. We can't know -- just what he tells us -- and I wonder if he really knows until he tests it in competition. It would be a mistake to risk a permanent injury of some kind.
Jeff: Yep, good 'ol Travelodge. Love the sleep-walking bear.
- Tom Blogical said...
Anybody think Tiger will win his first event since major knee surgery? Bueller...Bueller...Anyone?
- Tony Covey said...
I'm not saying Tiger is going to win (I would think it's a bit tougher to win a match play event), but if he can win the US Open on one leg, absolutely anything is possible. If nothing else, it's a reason to watch golf again.

Searching For Chiropractic Clinics Near You?
If you frequently deal with back pains, neck pains, spine, and sports injuries, you might be searching for the best chiropractic clinics near Mounds View Minnesota. Chiropractic care is considered a holistic and alternative treatment option that triggers the body's natural healing abilities. It is a non-invasive treatment option where millions of Americans are benefiting at the moment. The approach is shown to treat more than a dozen of different conditions. One of the best things about chiropractic care is that the method is 100% drug-free and helps heal your body naturally. The treatment option is effective in dealing with headaches, back pains, ear infections, neck pains, joint pains, arthritis, bowel irregularities, blood pressure, asthma, improved mental clarity, and a host of other conditions. With hundreds of chiropractic clinics near Mounds View, one should be cautious when selecting the best practitioner in the area. Here are important tips to consider when choosing the best chiropractic clinics nearby your location.
Despite the popularity of the treatment method, there are many misconceptions about the field of chiropractic care. Many patients are still confused when it comes to how the practice works and how chiropractic professionals are trained. In fact, most of the chiropractic programs incorporate an entire year of Ph.D.-level training in different subjects. Hence, a chiropractic doctor is a highly skilled and trained individual out there. Like with all other professions out there, there are many quacks operating in this industry too. That is why it is important that you perform extensive research before deciding to work with the right chiropractic doctor in your Mounds View area. Your homework is essential to choosing the best candidate for the job.
How Could My Digestive System Be Causing My Back Pain?
Thousands and thousands of people annually seek medical care for back pain. For some, the pain is gone within 6 weeks. For others, it becomes chronic back pain.
Chronic back pain affects individuals in various ways. Most make repeated visits to physicians, seeking relief. They want to know what causes their chronic back pain. They want new tests. They want to try whatever treatment may be available.
Chronic back pain sufferers may report difficulty in performing normal daily activities. They may believe the pain is increasing. They may simply want someone to sympathize, and agree that it is not "all in your head" at all.
Although back pain is the main reason people visit orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons, and the second main reason they visit primary care physicians, an estimated 5 to 10 percent of those visitors will receive no cure. They will go from low back pain to chronic back pain.
Patients are frustrated because physicians do not cure back pain. Physicians are frustrated because they cannot cure low back pain. Many think they can do little to prevent occasional severe back pain from becoming chronic back pain.
If nothing is done, however, chronic back pain limitations can seriously impinge on daily activity.
Clinically Proven Limitations
For the patient, it is difficult to believe that chronic back pain limitations are often unnecessary. They continue to believe that the pain has a cause that can be readily diagnosed, despite their physician's repeated assurances to the contrary. They believe the physician can find a medical sure for their back pain if pressed often enough and hard enough. As for treatment, patients often believe that until the cure is found, the best treatment is bed rest and limited activity.
The result of such beliefs is that back pain that could initially be resolved with exercise becomes chronic back pain. Chronic back pain that might still be resolved if the patient were to exercise regularly gradually develops and produces chronic back pain limitations.
TIP: Back pain is very, very common in our society. Rather than let it lead to complications and limitations, you may want to ask your physician for gentle exercises that may resolve your back pain before it becomes chronic.
Most of the wellness and health benefits associated with chiropractic care are due to the chiropractic adjustments received by the patients. These adjustments are important to place your body in the proper position so that it can heal itself. In fact, chiropractic adjustments help reduce the stress placed on the patient's immune system. This will release energy that is vital for maintaining homeostasis and preventing diseases. The treatment option addresses the whole body of the individual thereby improving his or her ability to think and act more positively.
A professional Mounds View Minnesota chiropractor prides him/herself on taking a drug-free, natural approach to helping the patient improve his/her wellness and health in the long run. In fact, the entire principle is built on the basis that the body has an innate ability to heal itself under the right conditions. The chiropractic doctor will help create the right environment for the body to start healing itself. The practice focuses on keeping one's spine properly aligned at all times. The nervous system controls every organ and cell in the body. Hence, if the spine shifts out of its proper place, it should be brought back into alignment without delay to prevent issues in the nervous system which can manifest as various diseases in the body. That is where a professional and experienced chiropractic doctor comes in handy.
Causes of Lower Right Back Pain
Back pain sufferers know only too well that relief is not easy to find especially when the pain is concentrated in the lower back.
Lower back pain is a problem a lot of people share and just don't know what to do about it. The spine is the conduit to many of our bodily systems like the endocrine system and the neurological system and when it is in pain that challenges the body in many ways.
Our first instance is to rush to our doctor but the reality is that the majority of instances of pain in the lumbar region can be alleviated through holistic health practises such as massage and exercise.
Common lower back pain tends to affect people between 30 and 60 and apparently, is as responsible for absence from work as the common cold. Recent research has shown that in a large percentage, psychological factors play a large role in absence due to back pain.
Any body pain is not easy to moderate and many sufferers simply rely on ibuprofen and other pain killers to reduce the 'swelling' and relieve the pain but this is not a long term solution.
If you suffer from spine related pain ask yourself some of these questions and consider some of the circumstances that could be creating your back pain before rushing off to a doctor. It may well be that a little TLC from your local chiropractor or masseur may just do the trick.
The American Chiropractic Association states that there are more than 70,000 chiropractic professionals operating in the United States alone. With so many to choose from, finding "any" chiropractic doctor is fairly easy. But you don't need "any" chiropractic when it comes to treating your condition. In fact, you want the "best" chiropractor in Mounds View to treat your specific condition. This is a bit trickier than finding just any chiropractic doctor in the area. There are many things to consider when choosing the right professional to treat your condition.
When provided by a highly skilled and experienced professional, chiropractic care is quite effective in healing a wide variety of conditions. The right professional should have a combination of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and experience. A personal referral from someone you trust is a great starting point when searching for any type of professional near Mounds View Minnesota. Ask your existing health care team, friends, family members or co-workers for recommendations in this regard. You may also hop online and read patient reviews and surveys on professional chiropractors operating in your area. Make sure you do the homework properly before scheduling your first appointment with the potential candidate.
Don't forget to check the credentials and experience of the potential candidate. Chiropractors are also known as doctors of chiropractic (DCs). They are highly trained professionals who have completed nationally accredited graduate-level programs. In addition to their 4-year undergraduate degree, a chiropractor should have a 4-year doctorate degree – similar to doctors of osteopathy (DOs) and medical doctors (MDs). Make sure the candidate you choose is licensed and a graduate of an accredited school of chiropractic. Evaluate his/her experience before you work with them. These are some of the most important things to look for when choosing the best chiropractic clinic in Mounds View Minnesota.

Hate Meetings? I Love 'em!
I used to work at a large church where Mondays were basically one long series of meetings. We'd have a general staff meeting first thing in the morning, then break off into meetings with other members of our respective ministry departments, and in the afternoon we would plan the weekly worship meeting. Some of these meetings—such as the worship planning meeting—were creative and fun, but the cumulative effect of all these meetings was tiring and even a little discouraging. At the end of the day, you felt like you had come away with a long list of to-dos without having gotten any of them accomplished. No matter how good your work environment, you likely feel the same way about meetings: yes, you recognize that they may be necessary, but they often feel tedious and counter-productive.
On the whole, my work for Accordance doesn't require a lot of meetings. In a company where most of the development staff works from home, you tend to call meetings only when they are absolutely necessary. But these days, I've been in a lot of meetings, and frankly, I'm lovin' every minute of it. That's because these meetings have been about things like our new iPhone/iPad app and the next major upgrade to Accordance, both of which are feverishly being worked on right now. I'm loving these meetings because I get to see the latest developments, give my feedback, make suggestions, and see us come to a consensus which is more exciting than anything I would have dreamed up on my own. There are so many cool things in the works right now that I love being kept in the loop through these meetings.
Of course, the tough part about being involved in all these discussions is that I then get very impatient to see all our plans implemented and to play with all the new goodies. Those who read my blogs and tweets about upcoming developments complain that I'm teasing them. But I actually feel that same fevered anticipation even though—or rather, because—I already know what's coming.
What's more, I get impatient to tell you about all the cool stuff we're working on. But because we know better than to talk too much about stuff that's still in development (and therefore subject to last-minute changes), I have to bite my lip and keep quiet . . . for now.
Of course, if you can catch one of us in person, we have been known to give sneak peeks at stuff that's in the works. So if you're dying to be in the know, be sure to look for us at upcoming conferences, seminars, and of course, the Users' Conference. I promise, you'll love being at those meetings.
