text: Well, summer has been so busy with us, so this update is late. I finished summer session with an A and an A-. I only needed to take two classes, but those classes kicked my butt! I don't know the GPA yet because they wont update until summer session ends completely and that is not until August 15th. Beaner and I are doing great. He is still going to counseling and is still taking his medications. We have been at my friend's house during the week, so we are not home much. Surprisingly he has been amazingly well. I am sorry that I have not been posting, but between school and Beaner, we have been busy. I think about you guys alot and I am glad that you guys are here in case I need you! I edited my settings so that it will send me an email to let me know if I have a private message. With plans to be gone most of the summer, I will not be able to check in regularly.

I've got conflicting teaching on how to make a left turn from a single left turn lane into two lanes. Do you stay to the right (seems safer to me) or move over to the left once your trailer tandems clear?

2 schools of thought and teaching on this subject...
I prefer to swing wide and stay to the right... this eliminates the chance of someone getting between you and the curb (blindspot).

At Roehl we were taught to turn the tractor into the right lane, which will pretty much be necessary to get the tandems to clear the apex of the turn, but then immediately turn the tractor into the left-hand lane. The trailer will follow the tractor into the left lane. Then signal for a lane change and move into the right hand lane as soon as it's safe to do so.
But if you are turning left and then immediately right, this won't work and you'll need to just turn into the right-hand lane. Judge each turn on its own merits, and do what is safest for THAT particular turn.

Pretty much what everyone else has said; if I need to make another left, then I will make my turn into the left lane. Otherwise, swing wider, ad grab the right lane.

For taking your test, you have to turn into the left hand lane, however you have to do that for your trailer wheels to clear everything.
If I am doing it on my regular routes, if I need to turn left ahead, I will stay in the left lane, if not, I will take the right lane right away.
they want you to make lefts into the left lane when possible and practical to keep a four-wheeler from riding up beside you in the right lane and you dragging the trailer over him.
the left turn into a right lane leaves the trailer duals blind in your mirrors on a sharp turn.

I always messed this up during training too as I thought from a single left turn into a 2 lane street, I kept turning into the right lane. Basically, I was told to stay in the lane I start in. What this means is that you should (in theory), end up in that left lane, but you will need to get the tractor in the right lane for a second or two to clear the tandems.
I dunno, its a weird set up...taking a left from a single into a street with two lanes in each direction of travel. On my route that I drive daily, there is one spot where I have this situation. However, since I have to turn right down the road a block or so, I turn into the right lane and stay there, otherwise I think you should end up in the left lane, then get into the right.
CMoore2004 Road Train Member
Here in MI, and in WI, I'm pretty sure the law states you have to turn in to the closest lane to you going your direction of travel. I figured it was that way nationwide. Sure, you have to further lane to make some of the turns, but you're supposed to make it back in that closest lane (even with 4-wheelers). I'm not sure what the ticket would be--probably something like improper lane usage (which is not good to have on your record) or not signaling. If there's a state where it's not the law, I'd like to know about it.

Milwaukee based band Big Mother Gig have returned after nearly two decades to release an EP and their latest music video "Just Fly By". The video is a recreation of the classic Replacements video for "Bastards of Young" with a modern twist. Focusing on music coming from a laptop rather than a record player. " Although it's been years since the band has released music together, the song feels as if they never missed a beat. Full bodied bass and drums fill out the sonic-sphere while crunchy guitars and hooky melodies make "Just Fly By" a total ear worm for fans of classic post-punk.
As if the news of the new EP and video weren't exciting enough the band recently reunited for a a hometown Milwaukee gig at Pabst Theater. Perhaps that means a full tour is in the works? One can only hope.

I was in Stockholm, Sweden last week. I was there attending a meeting of the Regional Science Academy. The Academy meetings only lasted for two days but due to the vagaries of airfares I was able to save over a thousand dollars on my plane ticket by arriving three days before the meetings started. This of course could have meant two extra nights in a hotel but my good friend Hans Westlund came to my rescue on that score. Hans has an apartment in Stockholm's Gamla Stan (Old Town) and as he was not going to be there during the first three days of my visit he generously gave me the keys to his place. This proved to be an excellent base from which to explore Stockholm's beer scene.

School Days
Beer and college tend to go together. Those of us who attended an institution of higher learning, in all likelihood, consumed huge volumes of beer while pursuing our studies. I know I did. But then again I was in college for ten years straight while amassing an undergraduate and two graduate degrees. So between 1981 and 1991 I had plenty of time to drink beer. And like most college students on a tight budget it was Continue reading School Days

Terrible Typos
Hello, Erika here!
My friend Grace and I were talking about ideas for work the other night and she started laughing as she told me about some of the typos she had seen in emails and documents she had received. We joked about auto correct and the fact that there are sites solely dedicated to people's "clumsy thumbsies" as Ellen DeGeneres would say.
How many times have you accidentally texted someone something you didn't mean to? I haven't been involved in some of the incredibly embarrassing incidents above, but I have accidentally texted "I kiss you" instead of 'I miss you." I also told my sister once that "the dogs are dead" when I definitely meant, "the dogs are fed." Typos happen, but how can you prevent them from making their way into your business?
I decided to share some common typos that frequently go unnoticed and include five fail-proof proofreading tricks—ways to make sure you don't end up with a grammatical blunder on your hands.
If you work in public service then you are most likely already aware of the common missing "l" in many documents and emails, resulting in some "pubic" disasters. I have a friend that used to work for the New York Housing Authority and this was a commonly overlooked error in their office.
The simple misuse of your vs. you're, or missing a comma can make a huge difference. If I say, "Let's eat Julia," it means something completely different than when I say, "Let's eat, Julia." People notice when grammatical errors are made. The other day at a meeting, I overheard a woman say, "Me and Kyle are planning…" and out of nowhere, the gentleman sitting next to me mumbles, "Kyle and I."
My final example is not capitalizing when we should. When Time Magazine featured an article on Steve Jobs and Apple, they simply referred to him as "steve jobs." A simple AP styling rule that I found myself rusty on was when to capitalize someone's job title. When the title comes before the name, it is capitalized, but when it comes after their name, it is in lower case.
So how can you make sure you don't make these simple grammatical errors? Here are my five tips.
- Read aloud
- Read backwards
- Take a break and re-read
- Use a second pair of eyes
- Always re-read before sending or posting
Grammar is complicated and AP guidelines are always changing because of the tools available to us. For example the term the Web now requires "web" to be capitalized because it encompasses and summarizes an entity, but a website is still lowercase because it is a smaller part of the Web.
I would recommend that you subscribe to the online AP Style Book or use the AP cheat sheet provided by Scribd. The cheat sheet isn't as thorough as the complete style book, but it still provides the basics you need. If you really want to work on becoming an expert proofer you should subscribe to online mailing lists. Our proofing Queen, Dianne, swears by dailywritingtips.com and Grammar Girl, which both provide daily emails on various writing techniques, tools and tips.
When I first started at NMC, it had been a while since I had actually written in AP form. I had done it thousands of times in college, but working for different organizations with their own rules and ways of doing things had definitely formed some bad habits. I decided to get back to the basics and made it my mission to write better. I'm not perfect and Dianne can attest to my typos and grammatical errors, but using the right tools has helped me get better and now we joke that it's only a matter of time before I get a document back without any red ink!
I hope that this week's witty wisdom helps you, no matter what your skill level when it comes to writing and editing. After all, it never hurts to keep learning new skills and developing new good habits.

Bangor Humane Society Goes Social
Cue Sarah McLachlan and add in some big-eyed, adorable furry friends. Yes, most of you know which advertisement I am referring to and we all know how hard it can be to either; a. change the channel even though you desperately want to; or b. to change the channel fast enough because it makes us sad just to think about those fuzzy little fluff balls.
This week's Monday Maine Maven, Stacey Coventry, can relate as the public relations manager for the Bangor Humane Society (BHS). She has always had an affinity for animals and two years ago she found her very own big-eyed, furry calling in an advertisement for an event and volunteer coordinator. She applied, and with her experience in journalism, sociology and nonprofit management, she was hired.
Coventry credits her previous experience and skills, coupled with her drive to meet the needs of the Bangor Humane Society, for her current role as the public relations manager. Her responsibilities include managing a Facebook page and website, writing and distributing press releases and newsletters, and educating the public on pet adoption.
When it comes to social media, Coventry says you should post daily about anything that might interest your audience adding, "We found people want to be in the 'BHS adoption loop' and we find the more we involve and communicate with them, both online and through our newsletter, about our success stories and how we are utilizing resources, the more support we receive." She goes on to tell stories of how they have been in desperate need for supplies and after a post on Facebook the supplies were on their doorstep by the end of the day.
Another program that Coventry says contributed to the growing resources of the Bangor Humane Society was their partnership with the ASPCA Rachel Ray $100K Challenge. The contest was between 50 shelters across the country competing to break their own records in rescuing more dogs, cats, puppies and kittens between August and October than the previous year. Although they didn't win the competition Coventry says, "Our adoptions continue to be up by 25% post-challenge and I receive 20 volunteer applications a week versus the 20 to 30 I used to receive in a month."
The $100K challenge has inspired Stacey to start similar programs on a local level to increase awareness and adoptions for the Bangor Humane Society. They have a special ongoing adoption program for seniors 65+ and veterans, in which all adult dogs and cats are 50% off with a valid ID. Also, throughout the month of February, they will be running a Valentine's promotion. All adult cats are $25 and adult dogs are between 10% and 50% off, depending on what Valentine card is on their kennel. Check out the video below to see some of the available dogs:
For those of you that are debating whether to adopt or buy from a breeder, Stacey says to consider that there are six to eight million abandoned and homeless pets brought into shelters each year and that they aren't bad pets; they are victims of unfortunate circumstances. Coventry says, "I have two dogs and a cat that I rescued and I swear they know they've been rescued! They are the most loyal companions." Coventry adds that the benefits go beyond connection. Shelter pets are all vaccinated, behavior evaluated and spayed/neutered—not to mention that all money spent to adopt your new best friend goes toward rescuing another homeless pet. Coventry says, "Visit your local shelter and see which furry face adopts YOU—you won't regret it."
If you aren't ready to adopt, but would still like to get involved you may mail your donation to:
693 Mt. Hope Avenue
Bangor, Maine 04401
Or you may donate by going online to www.bangorhumane.org , where you can also enroll in their kennel sponsor program or review the shelter wish list. To contact Stacey, you can email her at firstname.lastname@example.com or call her at 207-947-8902, ext. 103.

Its November and many highly anticipated smartphones including Android 4.2 Jelly Bean based LG Nexus 4, iOS 6 based iPhone 5, Windows Phone 8 based Nokia Lumia 920, HTC 8X, Samsung Ativ S and others are awaited eagerly by the tech enthusiasts and consumers to release in the global market for purchase.
It is officially confirmed that iPhone 5 will reach the retail shelves of the Indian smartphone arena today and Apple has planned a public launch event on the same. There are reports circulating that Apple iPhone 5 is facing some supply chain issues and that the handset will be available for purchase only from a couple of weeks.
However, it is also reported that those consumers who have pre-ordered the handset will receive one immediately. When it comes to the pricing, iPhone 5 willretail at a price of Rs 45,500, Rs 52,500 and Rs 59,500 for 16GB, 32GB and 64GB versions respectively.
When it comes to Nexus 4 – Google latest Nexus offering, the handset running on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS is a modified version of the Korean manufacturer's flagship smartphone – Optimus G, which is yet to be released into the market.
Nexus 4 has several advanced features as compared to the iPhone 5 including NFC and wireless charing. Though there is no official word on the specific release date and pricing of the Nexus 4, the handset is reported to reach the Indian market by the end of November and analysts assume that it will be priced around Rs 20,000 approximately. More smartphone Images....
For those who are planning to upgrade to an high-end smartphone running on a latest platform and confused on the same, here is a comparison between Apple iPhone 5 and LG Nexus 4 based on their specs. Read it below!
Dimensions & Weight: iPhone 5 carries a dimension of 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6 mm and weighs in at 112 grams while the thicker and heavier Nexus 4 measures 134.2 x 68.6 x 9.1 mm in dimension and weighs around 139 grams.
Display: When it comes to the display, iPhone 5 packs a 4 inch LED-backlit IPS capacitive touchscreen Retina display with 1136 x 640 pixel resolution.
In comparison, Nexus 4 houses a larger 4.7-inch IPS display that has a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels.
Processor: In this segment, iPhone 5 is equipped with a new Apple A6 chipset and quad-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor.
Operating System: When it comes to OS, iPhone 5 runs on iOS 6, but, Nexus 4 runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS.
Speaking about the new features of the operating systems, iOS 6, the latest version of the Apple's mobile OS is loaded with 200 new features including Apple Maps, improved Siri, new Safari browser, iCloud cloud storage, deeper integration to Facebook, new PassBook app, PhotoStream app and more.
On the other hand, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean comes with new features including Photo Sphere camera, Gesture Typing, Miracast, DayDream, improved notifications, quick settings, support to multiple user accounts, improved Google Now and more.
Camera: On the camera optics front, both the devices have an 8MP rear camera with autofocus and LED flash features and a 1.3MP front camera for video calling.
Further, iPhone 5 has a iSight camera which includes features like backside illumination, HDR, panorama support and faster aperture speed.
More smartphone specifications....
Memory: On the storage front, iPhone 5 comes in three configurations – 16GB, 32GB and 64GB internal storage and 1GB RAM, whereas, Nexus 4 comes with 2GB RAM and 8GB/16GB internal storage options.
However, both iPhone 5 and Nexus 4 lack a micro SD card slot for additional memory support.
Connectivity: When it comes to data connectivity, iPhone 5 and Nexus 4 have features including Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth and micro USB 2.0.
Further, Nexus 4 has NFC and wireless charging features that is missing in iPhone 5.
Battery: iPhone 5 is claimed to have a Li-ion battery delivering 225 hours standby and 8 hours talk time and Nexus 4 has a 2,100 mAh Li-Po battery with 15.3 hours of talk time and standby of 390 hours.
Price: iPhone 5 will be officially released in India starting today for a price of Rs 45,500 for the 16GB version. On the other hand, the pricing of Nexus 4 is not officially announced, but, analysts predict that the handset will retail in India for a price of Rs 20,000 approximately.
Click goProbo.com for online pricing of smartphone.
Both iPhone 5 and Nexus 4 are yet to make their presence in the Indian market and are high-end smartphones that are packed with impressive specifications and features. Moreover, they are based on new versions of the rival platforms – iOS 6 and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, hence, they are packed with unique software features that are exclusive to the OS.
If the concern is not on wireless charging and NFC connectivity features, the lightweight and thinner iPhone 5 with a better camera performance, improved social network integration and increased on-board storage options could be your choice.
On the other hand, if a larger screen real estate and better battery backup are the main concern, the Nexus 4 with NFC connectivity and wireless charging features could be a right smartphone.

If one has heard anything about immigration in the past few decades, the narrative of the job-stealing, welfare-cheating criminal illegal alien is nothing new. Unemployment problems, fears over national security, crime increases, the soaring cost of the welfare state – it all has been blamed on undocumented immigrants.
So when Donald Trump disparaged undocumented immigrants from Mexico, his remarks weren't all too surprising and were, at most, only slightly more hyperbolic than what has been said by many more before him.
"When Mexico sends its people, they are not sending their best," Trump said when announcing his presidential campaign. "They are not sending you. They are sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs and they are bringing crime, and they're rapists."
While these remarks have spurred some businesses and fellow Republicans to separate themselves from Trump, absurd statements about Mexican immigrants have been a persistent component of immigration debates for some time.
In 2011, Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Alabama, said of undocumented immigrants that he would do "anything short of shooting them" to stop them from "taking jobs from American citizens."
Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, seemingly has built his national reputation on ludicrous assertions about immigrants, including the idea that terrorists "are now being trained to come in and act like Hispanics."
A Rasmussen poll released July 8 indicated that most Americans believed illegal immigration increases serious crime in the United States, including 76 percent of Republicans. This, even though crime rates have been plummeting for decades nationwide as undocumented immigrants have come to the country by the millions.
On broader issues like legal status, Republicans consistently are less supportive than the general public of conferring legal status on undocumented immigrants.
However, with the increased prominence of the Hispanic vote, some Republicans seem more aware that bashing immigrants doesn't bode well for the party's long-term prospects.
In response to Trump's remarks, GOP candidates have had a range of responses.
On "Meet the Press," Sen. Ted Cruz simply characterized as "colorful" Trump's statements and said, "I salute Donald Trump for focusing on the need to address illegal immigration." In a similar vein, former Sen. Rick Santorum on "Hardball" denounced the "speech police" for criticizing Trump.
In contrast, former Gov. Jeb Bush denounced what Trump has said as "extraordinarily ugly," a sentiment echoed by former Gov. Rick Perry, who condemned the "disrespectful language."
As for Trump, in a recent statement, San Bernardino County District Attorney Mike Ramos probably put it best, "Rather than painting a broad brushstroke over immigration, perhaps Mr. Trump should stick to what he knows best: building casinos and creating drama on television shows."

Surface Profiling Benefits
What is the benefit of surface profiling prior to installing any new coating, marking or overlay material?
Smooth, non-porous surfaces prevent new coatings, overlay or repair materials to mechanically bond to the underlying substrate surface. Surface profiling opens the substrate pore structure to allow more of the new materials to be absorbed into the surface, promoting a lasting physical bond.
Surface profiling is an intensive process, and will NOT be accomplished without clearly written specifications that detail the acceptable "surface profiling" to a specific SP range. Just writing "surface preparation" will only result in a simple surface cleaning of dirt and debris by broom, pressure washer, or blower.
Surface profiling is defined as the creation of a specific surface profile pattern, confirmed by profile number (1-10), using select abrasive equipment outfitted with the proper cutter tools, dependent upon the surface type and the coating, overlay or repair material to be applied. Confirmation that the desired profile has been achieved is done by visually comparing the surface to the profiles depicted by a profile chart, replica profile tiles, replica putty, replica tape, or SP photos.
The profile chart is a visual representation of the desired surface textures, roughness, and general appearance created on concrete and asphalt surfaces. The texture and appearance of the profile will vary, depending upon the concrete/asphalt strength, composition, aggregate and finish. It can be confirmed by profile number, ranging from SP1 (nearly flat) smooth surface, to SP10 (extremely rough) with amplitude greater than 1/4". On sound surfaces, the range of variation can be controlled to represent these standards, however, as removal depth increases, the profile of the prepared substrate will be increasingly dominant by the type and size of the coarse aggregate.This video demonstrates the proper selection of the right cutter assembly, array and rotation to achieve the desired SP1 to SP10 surface profile; best for erasing, grooving or prepping concrete or asphalt surfaces. Proper surface preparation modifies the surface by opening up of the pore structure to establish the right profile, suitable for getting any new pavement markings, repair materials or overlays to physically bond with the surface. Now unless surface preparation is properly defined in the work you do, it will not be performed, and all that should be expected on the job will be surface cleaning with a broom, blower, brush or water. Using the right orbital or drum-rotating equipment will produce different surface patterns. An orbital rotation offers less surface depth penetration, ideal for removing markings without surface marks or grooving patterns. A drum style provides sharp-edge grooving and deeper surface penetration, ideal for prepping or grooving applications.
Depending upon the conditions of the surface and/or the selection of the new overlay material, one or more surface profiling steps may be required, since one style of machine with one cutter style cannot accomplish every job, material type and surface profile pattern. Selection of the right removal equipment should NOT be required by contract, but by the installer's ability to correctly prepare the surface and/or remove the existing coating overlay, while leaving the required SP1 – SP10 surface profile range necessary for the new material.
When removing and relocating markings to a new location, the profiling process must permanently remove the prior marking material. That means no pavement scars or traces of removed markings that may conflict with the new markings, regardless of weather and light conditions, for its entire service life.
The equipment selection and use must take into consideration any impact loads that may weaken or fracture the substrate, called "micro-cracking," which makes surfaces unstable and unsound. Unsound surfaces shall be immediately repaired prior to the the next step. After the sound, profiled surface is confirmed, the surface should be dry and cleaned prior to installing the new coating or overlay material.
Please contact your SMITH Representative for details on:
- How the "surface profile" specification portion should be written
- How to select and use the "right" profiling equipment to get the "right" surface profile number
- How to assure surface preparation compliance in your contracts
Call SMITH first to make your surfaces last.

Whether this is your first time participating in a fantasy draft league, or you are a seasoned veteran, everyone will have a trading strategy they believe will win them the flag that year. However, ever league has a particular fantasy draft trader. Let's take a look at five of the more common ones.
Mr. I'm Going to Need Something Decent in Return
Yes, we all know this fantasy draft trader. Also known as Mr. Overvalues His Players, he is prepared to trade his forward who averages 90, but only for your midfielder who is averaging just on 100. He's notoriously hard to deal with and is as stubborn as a mule at the trade table. He'll typically target the newbie in the league and raid his list for his better players. The upside for the rest of the league is that he typically languishes in the middle-to-bottom section of the ladder and experiences very little success each season.
Mr. Trades For The Sake of Trading
The complete opposite to Mr. I'm Going to Need Something Decent in Return, this bloke is always open to trades. Fairly easy to deal with and always wanting to improve his team, this type of fantasy draft trader is playing the long game and always has his eye on the prize. However, as the song goes "you got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em", and these words ring true with this fantasy draft trader. It's always a good thing wanting to improve your side, but you need to pick your moments and know when to sell high and buy low.
Mr. New Kid on the Block
Remember that kid from the school-yard who has just got into trading cards, and you manage to convince him to trade his Gary Ablett Jnr card for your three Denis Armfield's and two Brent Stanton's? Yeah, well that kid exists in fantasy draft leagues and he's known as Mr. New Kid on the Block. This type of trader is cannon fodder for the more experienced fantasy coaches as the is easily talked into deals that are so heavily skewed the other way it's not funny. Embarrassingly, they often need advice from other coaches in their league about what constitutes a good trade and a bad trade.
Mr. My Guy Who I Will Never Trade
There's always one guy who has a man crush on a particular. He'll pull the trigger early on draft day and take him in the 3rd or 4th round, when the player is probably worth a 6th to 7th round pick at best. And when it comes to the trade table – forget about trying to get said player; it just won't happen. Even if you offered up an underperforming Scott Pendlebury, you STILL wouldn't get that player. Handy tip for opposition coaches: draft said player before the guy who has the man crush on him does. You can just about name your price at the trade table when he's at breaking point and desperately wants said player in his team.
Mr. I Think That's a Fair Trade
A little similar to Mr. I'm Going to Need Something Decent in Return, this type of trader tries to rip you off at the trade table at every opportunity. He believes every trade he offers up is fair for both parties; regardless if it is heavily skewed in his favour. He's the complete opposite to Mr. New Kid on the Block in the sense that he knows exactly what he's doing, however, he even has the nerve to try and rip off the veteran coaches of the league. What's worse is that he is dead serious with his offers such as Bryce Gibbs for Luke Parker, and truly believes that you are getting Gibbs at a great price given his fantasy potential. The lack of respect he shows his fellow coaches at the trade table is one of the reasons why he rarely succeeds in putting together a premiership winning team.
So, which of these fantasy draft traders are in your league? Or is there one I haven't mentioned? Let us know in the comments section!

BRUSSELS, Belgium (NEWS10) – Hundreds of thousands of NATO troops are being placed on "high alert" amid tensions with Russia.
The Times reports that NATO commanders want to "prepare a substantial land force capable of deterring Russian aggression."
It could take up to 180 days for a force of this size to deploy, but the goal is to speed up the deployment.
In recent weeks alone, Russia has moved battleships toward the Mediterranean and Baltic Seas, shifted nuclear-capable missile-launchers into its Kaliningrad enclave neighboring Poland and continued flying bombers down the western European coast.
Tensions have grown between the West and Russia since Crimea was annexed and Russia also backed a pro-Russia insurgency in eastern Ukraine.

She looks like a child: a baby face and large, round eyes, long and thin arms that make her seem gawky. When she sees me, her eyes brighten, and she struggles to sit up in her hospital bed. The blanket covering her drops, revealing a frail and gaunt body—a nineteen-year-old's body. Five feet, four inches, she weighs only eighty pounds.
Sonam Yambhare is dying, and there is little modern medicine can do for her. Two years ago, she contracted a drug-resistant form of tuberculosis in her lungs. The bacteria that cause the disease have destroyed her macrophages, the body's first defenders against foreign invasion. Constant nausea, loss of appetite, and vomiting—symptoms of the disease—have emaciated her. All medications have been infective. In her weakened state, another serious infection will likely kill her.
Ward Number Eight of the Sewri Tuberculosis Hospital is a silent room with gray concrete walls. It is a world away from the chaotic streets of Mumbai. And it is a world away from the rest of Indian society. With nowhere else to go, neglected and stigmatized TB patients like Yambhare come here—even from towns and villages hundreds of miles away—to wait out the last stages of the disease, sometimes alone.
"Everyone is depressed here," says Chandge Mokshada, a young doctor on her rounds. In the crumbling ward, dozens of women lay quietly on their beds. There is little chance they will recover, Mokshada says. "We mostly lose our patients."
One of the world's most lethal infectious diseases is making a comeback. Two centuries ago, tuberculosis was responsible for a quarter of all deaths in parts of Europe and the US. Known as the "white plague" or "white death" due to the way it blanched the skin, the disease left a deep imprint on the culture. Thomas Mann and Fyodor Dostoevsky wrote about it. Emily Brontë and Henry David Thoreau died from it.
After the development of effective antibiotics in the 1940s, deaths from tuberculosis plummeted. But TB remains a formidable killer in many parts of the world. And in recent years, it has evolved in frightening ways. Its virulent new strains now defy many or all known antibiotics. And while they have ravaged Asian countries in particular, these deadlier forms of the disease are spreading everywhere.
Last month, the World Health Organization released a report about the surge in infectious diseases that are fast becoming untreatable. "A post-antibiotic era—in which common infections and minor injuries can kill—is a very real possibility for the 21st century," the report read. The WHO singled out drug-resistant tuberculosis as one of the greatest dangers. In 2012, it accounted for 450,000 new cases and 170,000 deaths—that is, less than 4 percent of those newly infected with TB, but 13 percent of those the disease killed. The total number of confirmed cases has grown sevenfold over seven years, with India, China, and Russia accounting for more than half of new infections. (The official statistics also understate the size of the problem, since many of the hardest-hit countries report bogus numbers.)
New strains of TB arise when the old ones are not properly treated. Not taking a full course of antibiotics, for example, can merely weaken, rather than eradicate, the bacteria that cause the disease. The remaining bacteria evolve to adapt to the drug, turning a treatable strain of TB into a resistant one.
The problem has gotten progressively worse. At one point, health officials believed TB could be eliminated. But in the 1980s, tuberculosis strains emerged that resisted the most common and safe anti-TB drugs. In the past decade, even second-line treatments have become ineffective against certain tough strains that fall under the category of "extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis" (about 10 percent of drug-resistant TB cases). To deal with them, doctors will put patients on more than one of these toxic drugs. Their side effects, however, can be severe, ranging from acne, weight loss, and skin discoloration to hepatitis, depression, and hallucinations.
For the hardest-to-treat strains, doctors are now forced to use so-called third-line drugs, an even more toxic regimen whose effects have yet to be fully tested.
Today, resistant strains can be found virtually everywhere, including the United States and Europe. But perhaps nowhere is the crisis more real than in India. The world's second most populous country has a quarter of its TB cases—and now, many of the hardest ones to treat. While the number of Indians suffering from the disease has actually gone down in recent years, thanks in part to widespread vaccination, the WHO estimates that in 2012 the country had 21,000 new cases of drug-resistant TB of the lungs—an exponential increase from the few dozen cases the government had been reporting just six years earlier.
India also has the dubious distinction of being one of three countries—Iran and Italy being the others—where certain strains of TB have resisted every drug used against them. Four years ago, Zarir Udwadia, a noted pulmonologist at Mumbai's Hinduja Hospital, identified twelve patients suffering from untreatable TB infections. (Three of the twelve have since died; the others have been taken into isolation by the government.) Udwadia and other researchers have described these kinds of cases as "totally drug-resistant."
The Indian government disputes the categorization, arguing that these strains have not been tested against all of the experimental third-line drugs. Another term, "extremely drug-resistant TB," gets around the worry of some experts that classifying such a common disease as untreatable may cause panic.
Regardless of what they are called, these hardy strains have the power to push societies back to a time before antibiotics, when the "white plague" was all but unstoppable. "If not contained," says infectious disease specialist Charles Chiu of the University of California, San Francisco, "it poses a big problem to the world."
In India, those infected with TB tend to be the most vulnerable people in society. Yambhare was born into a low caste. She lived in a cramped apartment, where she shared a room with her mother and two sisters. Every day she took overcrowded trains from her home in the countryside to Mumbai, where she helped her mother clean houses. In other words, her poverty made it far more likely that she would be exposed to TB, which often (though not always) settles in the lungs and can be transmitted through the air.
Two years ago, Yambhare developed a persistent cough. She visited one of the private medical clinics that line the teeming streets of the western suburb of Bandra. There, a doctor diagnosed her with tuberculosis, and Yambhare began taking antibiotics. When her family saw no improvement over two years, they switched doctors. The new doctor prescribed more drugs.
No one bothered to give her a drug-sensitivity test. The test would have revealed what strain of TB she had, and a competent doctor could have then prescribed the correct drug. Instead, the incomplete and inept treatment that Yambhare received gave the bacteria the chance to adapt and become stronger. It soon developed a resistance to all four of the first-line drugs used to treat TB.
In Yambhare's case and thousands of others, a broken health-care system has made the problem of drug-resistant TB much worse. Hospitals are overcrowded, and the services provided are minimal. So Indians—rich and poor—flock to private doctors. But the slapdash treatment they tend to provide, with laxly administered drugs and inadequate follow-up care, has allowed drug-resistant TB to spread wildly.
Udwadia, the Mumbai pulmonologist, says that many of these doctors are unscrupulous, and most are uninformed. In 2010, he conducted a study in Mumbai's Dharavi slum, one of Asia's largest and the origin of many of the city's most severe TB cases. He asked more than a hundred doctors in the area to "write a prescription for a common TB patient." Only six were able to do it correctly. Half of the doctors he surveyed were practitioners of alternative therapies with no grounding in modern science.
Udwadia argues that India needs a law that will let only designated specialists treat drug-resistant tuberculosis patients. But at the moment the government does not bother keeping detailed records on the many private doctors now operating, much less ensuring they provide adequate care.
"The government has no control over private practitioners," says an official in the health ministry, speaking on condition of anonymity since he is not authorized to talk to the media. "They require only once-in-a-lifetime registration, and there is no chance for them to lose their license."
Calls for regulation by experts like Udwadia, the official says, are silenced, ridiculed, or ignored. Meanwhile, the government has been accused of underreporting the number of new cases of drug-resistant TB every year. In 2011 the official count was 4,200 cases; the next year, the government began adjusting its figures to resemble the WHO's estimates, and the number of reported cases quadrupled. (Indian health ministry officials did not respond to emails asking for comment.)
In terms of its anti-TB spending, however, the government has been devoting more resources. In 2013 it budgeted $182 million to fight the epidemic.
Some of this money will go toward upgrading the 103-year-old Sewri hospital, which could use it. In its ward for drug-resistant patients, there is no medical equipment in sight; records are kept in rusted metal cabinets. The most pernicious forms of TB are hitting a health-care infrastructure poorly equipped to deal with them.
Every year, more than eight million people fall ill with tuberculosis. More than a million die from it, placing TB just a notch below AIDS in its globe-spanning lethality. And a whopping one-third of the world's population has what is called "latent TB": they are infected by the bacteria, and a tenth of them will go on to develop the disease at some point in their lifetimes. Drug-resistant TB, in other words, is just one part of a global health emergency.
Meanwhile, the problem goes ignored in rich countries. Antibiotic treatments for TB have been so successful there that most people's experience with the disease today is limited to works of literature: novels and poems with archaic references to "consumption" and TB sanatoriums. But that may change someday soon. In the United States, a hundred new cases of drug-resistant TB are diagnosed every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Cases of extensively drug-resistant TB have already been reported.
Paul Nunn, the WHO's TB coordinator, says that these deadly strains have cropped up in certain European countries, too, though the reports have yet to be published. "If the health system of the world fails, the highly resistant strains will replace the old," he adds. "We'll see a worsening of the situation if nothing is done." On the other hand, it may be only when the resistant strains become a major problem in rich countries that the profit-seeking pharmaceutical industry will take notice and pour real money into the development of potent new treatments.
Without effective drugs to combat the most resistant strains, doctors may have to revert to remedies from an earlier era. Udwadia recalls his first patient with untreatable TB. Twenty-six years old, she had spent the last five years trying a variety of anti-TB drugs, all of which had failed. As a last resort, she underwent a pneumonectomy, a high-risk medical procedure to remove a lung. The woman later died of complications from the surgery. The procedure had not been used on tuberculosis patients since the introduction of antibiotic treatments six decades ago.
Even though so many people are infected, TB still carries a terrible stigma in Indian culture. "People treat you with disgust," Yambhare says. As she grew sicker, she became more isolated. Her sisters were told to stay away. Her friends stopped visiting. Finding a partner or even a job was impossible. She sunk into a depression.
Meanwhile, her family struggled to pay for her treatment. Their monthly household income was just $100—not uncommon in a country where one in three people lives on less than $1.25 a day. But the expensive second-line drugs cost $80 a month. And once she began taking them, the side effects kicked in. Her skin became discolored. Her muscles atrophied. Her weight dropped.
Eventually, Yambhare's family could no longer care for her. They sent her to the Sewri hospital.
When I visit her in the ward, orderlies are carrying out the infected mattresses of previous patients. In a nearby courtyard, they set the mattresses afire.
Yambhare watches the smoke curl past the window near her bed. Below her, in the courtyard, stray dogs fight over bones.
Yambhare turns to me, an eerie shine in her eyes. "I don't want to die," she says through her mask. "I want to go home and help mother."

Chelsea may offload Petr Cech with Thibaut Courtois set to be No 1
Chelsea will consider allowing Petr Cech to leave Stamford Bridge if the goalkeeper does not want to be understudy to Thibaut Courtois.
Manager Jose Mourinho wants 22-year-old Courtois to return from his Atletico Madrid loan and start pre-season as No 1 goalkeeper while Cech recovers from surgery on a dislocated shoulder.
Cech will then have to wait for an opportunity to try to regain the Chelsea goalkeeping gloves he has held for the past decade from 22-year-old Courtois. If Cech is not prepared to be back-up, Chelsea will sell the 31-year-old or even loan him out and find a new No 2.
With Financial Fair Play now an issue for Chelsea, the club could demand more than £10m for Cech and save on his £100,000-a-week wages. Courtois has been offered a new five-year contract worth around £70,000 a week.
The matter is causing much debate inside Stamford Bridge and has split opinion among coaching staff and club chiefs. How it is resolved could have a large bearing on the atmosphere within Chelsea, which grew tense towards the end of the season.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are ready to offer Romelu Lukaku a new contract, despite him starting only one Premier League game for the club, and may be willing to loan the striker back to Everton next season to help inflate his value.
Lukaku's prospects at Stamford Bridge will recede even further when Chelsea sign Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa this summer.
However, the London club are understood to believe that another strong loan season for the Belgian – he scored 15 goals in 31 games for Everton in this campaign – could enable them to make a healthy profit on the £18m they paid Anderlecht for him three years ago.
Everton are understood to be ready to use their entire summer transfer budget if Lukaku becomes available and believe they would have to pay £20m to get the player.
However, taking Lukaku on loan for another season would be the ideal option for Roberto Martinez, because he needs to bring in three or four reinforcements in the summer to enable the club to combine the Premier League and Europa League next season.
Martinez is also waiting on a decision about the future of another of his key loan players last season – Gareth Barry.
The 33-year-old is out of contract at Manchester City on June 30 and Arsenal have also expressed an interest in the midfielder, whose positional sense and dependability allowed Ross Barkley to blossom.
One option available to Barry is a move to Major League Soccer in the United States, to play for New York City FC – owned by Manchester City's benefactors. But since that new MLS franchise does not begin playing for another season, Everton will seek to persuade the midfielder to stay with them for another year. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

New month and a new week! I have some goals for this month and hope to crush them by the 30th! I started out my day with my 5k training walk of 1.29 miles, did good on my time compared to last week. For breakfast I had a Honeycrisp apple, banana, and my iced coffee.
This morning I hit a NSV!!! I bought two Torrid shirts in a 3x last year, they ended up running extremely small so I left the tags on them and hung them up in hopes I could wear them one day... today was the day! They are even a tad loose now!! So excited!
So for my November goals, I am keeping them short and simple. Every month I write down my goals for the month and each week in my planner. I can't wait to create goals for the first of the year!!
In the past I always started my goals in January, this is the first time I'll be entering January with already having started. Will be a nice feeling for sure!
Ended the day with a big salad and some yarn dyeing. I dyed up some skeins for myself as well, 7 of them are a new colorway I called Tarot Reader.... it's fitting since I'm a tarot reader! I read tarot professionally in the past, meaning I used to charge for readings, but earlier this year I decided to close up shop and just read for friends and family.
Bring on November!

I swear to you, you're my long lost sister. I have not been pro, by any means, but I used to palm read at parties as a conversation starter and have read every one of my life events in a tarot set that I have! I love reading your blog. Cheers for goals!!!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thats awesome!! I've always been fascinated by palm reading, I did do a light study on it but tarot has always been my thing lol! I have also dabbled in tea leaf reading, I just find divination in general so interesting! We are long lost sisters!! lolDelete

Where will the kids be going when you have baby? Will dad be taking any time off work besides when you deliver?
My kids will either be going with my mom or my sister. My mom prefers my sister because 3 kids is a lot for her over night, haha. But its easier for my mom to get off work because she makes her own schedule. So if I deliver a Friday they will most likely stay with my sist so she on let takes one day off. If any other day they will have to stay with my mom. Either way I will have to leave my van with whoever takes them because my moms car only fits two car seats and my sister only has a SUV with one back row and with a daughter of her own they won't fit!
I'm hoping they will schedule my section for Thursday or Friday. Then dad will take off the day I deliver and the weekend and go back to work Monday, which scares me, but we need the money.

Day 147 11th December 2010
Ria De Vigo
Monte Real Club de Yates, Bayona
I got a call from Chris, the Skipper of Inatiz, he wanted to wish me a Happy Christmas and see if all was ok with me. Earlier, I had mentioned to John that I hadn't heard from him!
We loaded the sail repair gear into Nearby and John rowed ashore. We washed the working jib on the slip as best we could, but the soot was not easily removed. Next the patches were found. The sail was ripped from the leech to the luff and the leech adjusting cord had ripped out too.
I found items to set up the machine so we could get the sail repaired at a comfortable working level. The students from the dinghy sailing school were stopping to look and their teacher came by for a look also. He was explaining to them the importance of the sewing machine on a boat such as Faraway that is travelling the world. They were enthralled and even some parents came for a look to see how this was done too! The sailing teacher, Ramón was very interested in finding out more and his English was very good.
He wanted to know more about the passage and was fascinated by our adventures! He offered John some tobacco, which he politely declined and I offered Ramón a beer, which he politely declined! As the light was fading, we had to quit and consider our plan of attack for the next day, Ramón asked if we would be back and hoped to see us the following day.
We went back to the boat (in Nearby) without dinner items and ate lightly. It had been a successful day.
I went ashore for a couple of hours to upload my blog, returning when my battery was flat and my eyes tired.
Oh, mentioning batteries, must get more, my 'camera' is very sore on them!

T HE death of Leslie Waggener, Jr., on January 1, 1951,
was a staggering loss to the Association, to the Univer-
sity of Texas, and to the state. Since 1946 he had served
as chairman of the Association's Ways and Means Committee.
On April 29g, of last year, he was named Honorary Life President
of the Association. He was also a patron and an honorary life
member. More than any other person he was responsible for the
present financial health and well-being of the Association.
From the Board of Regents of the University and from other
sources has come the request that I make a statement concerning
Leslie Waggener's work for and contributions to the Association.
The statement follows:
I first met the late Leslie Waggener in 1940 when I was calling
upon various members of the Texas State Historical Association. I
am sure that I was especially attracted to him because of the "Buck"
Dunton picture, "The Texan" which hung in his office over his desk
in the Republic National Bank of Dallas. The picture led to a dis-
cussion of "things of a Texan character," and I found Leslie Waggener
devoted to the state, to things of a cultural nature, and to the Uni-
versity of Texas.
Shortly after Waggener's resignation as a Regent of the University,
I began a discussion with him in which I asked him "for the good of
Texas and on behalf of the Texas heritage" to assume the chairmanship
of a Ways and Means Committee for the Association in the course of
which he would solicit contributions for the creation of a publication
The monies to be collected were to be used only for the publication
of Texas books. The weight of my argument to him was that the
Association had need of some intelligent business interest in its wel-
fare. His first reply was, "You know my interest in good books and
my high regard for the Association, but I have never solicited even
so much as $1.oo contribution to the Red Cross in my whole life."
I explained that the need was not for a professional solicitor but for
a broad-gauged citizen who had the confidence and respect of the

Series: Trylle Trilogy #1
Wendy Everly is facing an impossible choice. The only way to save the Trylle from their deadliest enemy is by sacrificing herself. If she doesn't surrender to the Vittra, her people will be thrust into a brutal war against an unbeatable foe. But how can Wendy leave all her friends behind…even if it's the only way to save them?
The stakes have never been higher, because her kingdom isn't the only thing she stands to lose. After falling for both Finn and Loki, she's about to make the ultimate choice…who to love forever. One guy has finally proven to be the love of her life—and now all their lives might be coming to an end.
Everything has been leading to this moment. The future of her entire world rests in her hands—if she's ready to fight for it.
What an amazing ending for an amazing series!
I was hooked immediately on the first chapter and finished it in one sitting. In the very start, Loki comes to Wendy for forgiveness and help, which melted my heart because I know that Loki truly loves Wendy and GAH the feels. This series has amazing development in each book. The first one we see Wendy trying to adapt who she is, the next is Finn and Tove, and in this is more about Loki.
Loki has got to be my favorite character. He's handsome, smart, sarcastic, loyal to Wendy, and just lovable. He's just a really strong character with a lovable heart. In my honest opinion, I never really saw a love triangle. Its more of a 10%, 90% chance of the two guys. Wendy is trying to forget about Finn and Finn is doing the same but he is a bit jealous of Loki.
This series doesn't have that much action until the end where Wendy tries to save everyone. But overall it was a very good ending and I can believe its over. I loved every single character even though I hated some at first -Finn, but I will miss this series and I will definitely will reread this again and fall in love and hate with the characters again.

okay…this is the funniest thing i've read in a while.
Ah, you hit the nail on the head and out of the park in one comic.
I'm really starting to dislike the "checklist"-oriented storytelling going on, leading to token deaths being part of any dramatic storyline. Marvel's doing it too. There's already deaths lined up for X-Men: Second Coming, and some of Bendis's deaths have been just disrespectful and meaningless.
you could say that sometimes thats how death should be treated in comics. meaningless, disrespectful, and worthless. Because thats how some people die, even loved heroes. I'd like to see some heroes die from getting hit by a bus in their civilian identity…cause it has to have happened at least once.
Ah, this was good, especially in light of the garbage going on with Roy Harper. ^_^ Thanks, Comic Critics!
@ Morlock.
First of all, the Green Lantern Ch'p was killed when he was run over by a (yellow) truck.
And secondly, don't be stupid. It's IRRELEVANT whether meaningless and lame deaths are "realistic". They're still meaningless and lame, and at the end of the day, that's not good storytelling. Fiction has the prerogative to be unrealistic when it improves the story.
Heh, makes me think of the X-Men and their ever-resurrected roster. Jean Grey's the most obvious, but there have been the death of Cyclops, Collosus, Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, Banshee, Psylocke, Prof X etc. Heck, even Wolverine's 'died' on several occasions.
@ BornIn1142
I definitely agree with you. Meaningless deaths might be more realistic, but that doesn't mean jack squat from a storytelling perspective.
The only reason for a meaningless death in fiction, is if there is a meaning for it.
I hated that cover so much. It wasn't the one I remember seeing solicited either. It really seemed like the folks at DC were just laughing at the fans who were responding negetivly to yet another death for the Titans. That and its the laziest cover imaginable.
Thanks Comic Critics, I really needed that. ^_^
Looked up issue 74. I can't believe that's a real cover; it just seems like such a horrible thing to do.
So true…
This month on Teen Titans: EVERYONE DIES!
Next month on Teen Titans: EVERYONE DIES (again)!
This is By Far the Funniest Comic Ever, And it's so True, What is it? Every 5 issues A Titan Dies?
