The HDR8x4-ULTRA Expandable HDMI 8 x 4 Matrix Switcher from Smart-AVI is a high-definition video router that enables you to route HD 1080p content, multi-channel audio, and IR signals up to 425' over a single CAT5/5e/6 cable, providing a solution to create a clean and efficient video and digital signage system. Thanks to the CAT5e/6 connection, the HDR8x8-ULTRA allows the operator to remotely switch the source as well as control the input sources. This allows for routing and viewing in applications such as home entertainment, digital signage, medical systems, live events, etc.
The matrix switcher features 8 input and 8 output card slots. Each input card has 2 HDMI ports and each output card has 2 RJ45 ports. This unit comes with 2 input and 2 output cards that provide a total of 8 HDMI inputs and 4 RJ45 outputs. Additional input/output cards (not included) can be installed to expand the capability to 16 x 16.
At each display end, the HDX-Ultra-RX (not included) receives the HDMI, IR, and RS-232 output signals. The HDMI signals are fed to the HDMI-capable display via an HDMI cable. The HDX-Ultra-RX also features an RS-232 port to output control signals.
Each video input of the HDR8x4-ULTRA incorporates SmartEDID programmable technology that makes it capable of learning video resolutions, audio settings, and 3D data. The EDID memory of each display is stored in a single flash memory, giving you freedom to choose any EDID and emulation for any display. EDID management allows learning and saving the attributes including audio of up to 100 displays. With support for HDMI 1.4, HDCP, HDR8x4-ULTRA can learn EDID from virtually any display device connected.
You can locally switch between sources without the use of any software via the easy-to-operate front panel, or remotely through an RS-232, IR, or TCP/IP connection. The LCD (4 x 40) displays detailed information about the status of the switch at any given moment. The included SmartControl software allows controlling the unit via an RS-232 connection. It enables users to control the matrix using the graphic user interface, without having to write the codes and send serial commands to the devices. The software enables configuration of the size and type of the matrix, including a preset defined at macro. In addition, it enables identification by name for each source and display.
The HDR8x8-ULTRA can be controlled remotely using Smart-AVI's remote control solution (sold separately). It allows assigning inputs, outputs, and controlling routing functions. In addition, it can also control the video inputs. Sources like cable TV, DVD players, and others can be selected on the matrix switcher and then adjusted. It all happens with the same remote and without the need to run any new cables.
The Net-IP-Pro Module (sold separately) enables multiple users to control and configure the matrix from virtually anywhere in the world using a Web browser. It also supports Telnet for integration with other control systems.
Note: The remote control solution requires SRC-2A IR Remote Control, IR-EYE IR receiver, and Smart IR Blaster, all sold separately.

Provinssirock is one of Finland's biggest rock festivals, attracting some 80,000 fans every year to the small city of Seinäjoki. This year, that number included one naked, burnout-happy motorcyclist. Let's break down the multiple reasons why this is the worst idea ever.
1. If you crash, it won't be pretty.
Sensible motorcyclists wear full leather suits to keep them from getting parts of their body torn off when they hit the pavement. You, naked Finnish motorcyclist, will be looking like a cross between Varys and the inside of a mincemeat pie if anything goes wrong.
2. You will be ridiculed.
Finns are a nutty people. Even they know that you look like a sperm with your helmet and pasty-pale body. They also know what's about to happen to you.
3. You will be arrested.
Even though Europeans are a bit more accepting of public nudity than us puritan-bred prudes in the US of A, doing burnouts is just going to get you arrested. This guy meets an unhappy-looking police van before the two-minute video is over.
Don't drop the soap, buddy.
While there's no visible penis in the full video, your boss may consider it NSFW.

Fr. Jonah wrote that article around 3 years or so ago for Again... magazine.
It appeared in Again? Let me attempt to contain my surprise.Nope, didn't work.
In nomine Iesu I offer you all continued peace,With every 'good' attempted by men there is present a 'temptation' which spoils the 'virtue' for 'vice'.It is the error of pride that assumes one's 'good' is always a 'virtue'.My point would have been served in the original forum. I had not doubt that this would have not raised anyone's anger, either there or here.Pax Vobiscum
« Last Edit: Today at 02:24:35 PM by francis-christopher »
Huh?Sorry FC, but I for one have no idea what you are trying to say here, nor can I see how posting an article written by someone else without any comment can be considered as making any "point". Why can't you just say what you want to say instead of beating around a very flowery bush?
You mean, this is how you wanted your post to read after you edited it?
Note that the burning bush was not burnt by the divine flames.
Honestly, divine truth must be handled with great care or our feble hands will mare it beyond recognition.
I wanted the article to stand on it's own without my interference or proding. Sometimes it's best that way.
I know what 'I' got from that article. I'd be interested in know what others got?
Oh well, that makes things much clearer...... That's why we Orthodox call it "The Unburning Bush". So what is the "Divine Truth" that needs to be handled with care here? The article you posted? Your opinion about it (which you are yet to share)?
Divine Truth is Absolute and Immutable. Divine Truth is a Person, not a paragraph. It doesn't require "handling with great care" because it cannot be harmed.
The best way to do what?
But you just said you wanted the article to stand on it's own- make up your mind.
I thought the article was very thoughtful. It illumined graves errors some of us stray in
No doubt Divine Truth is Absolute and Immutable but our limited grasp of it and our feeble means of expressing it 'in our lives and in the lives of others' often fail to present 'it' and leads others astray.
I believe it was C.S. Lewis who said 'Evil is Good done badly'.
Seek the Kingdom, of course. What else is there for us to be doing?
Apart from 'my' proding.
My point would have been served in the original forum.

I can certainly identify with these sentiments and, even if I have some fairly major reservations on much of what Sarah is saying here, there are a few well-aimed home truths that deserve acknowledgement.
Speaking as someone who was in my early twenties in 2003, who's subsequently spent almost ten years running not one but two blogs on the general topic of "Britain's yakking class of angry war-fluffers are dangerously thick and dishonest, and my own opinions are totally awesome and correct", I'm pretty much the person who should be answering the charge.
Let's start with the good points:
"The division between pro-war and anti-war cleaved a sharp line through the world between the lost and the saved. For the remainder of the decade, I would judge an MP on their voting record on Iraq; a journalist on their coverage of Iraq; a publication on its editorial line on Iraq".
Well, fair enough - I did plenty of MP-and-journalist-judging on this criteria too, and it's probably telling that there are only a few cases I can recall where I now think that I made serious misjudgements.
"The moral certainty of that period was simply blissful. I do not believe I am alone in this: being right about Iraq gave a whole section of the British left a sense of burning, brilliant superiority".
It's absolutely true that I didn't lack for "moral certainty" also and, to take it further, I was a complete prick to lots of people who disagreed about the war. I'm a complete prick on a lot of topics, including football and TV shows, but I certainly was one on this.
Again, it probably speaks volumes that I do feel bad for being all aggro and high-and-mighty with a few people, but only a few people, and I don't feel that bad, when it comes right down to it.
So it's Mea culpa, and Mea will probably continue to be culpa of this until the day Mea sarcasm glands run dry.
"It's fortunate that losing felt like home, because losing over the Iraq war was otherwise desperately sad. I remember taking part in the Stop the War march in Sheffield, and I remember it being a drizzly and defeated sort of day as we shuffled around Barker's Pool, me pushing a pram with one hand, holding my crying baby with the other. I remember thinking, we're not stopping anything. This has already happened".
This is pretty much my recollection of the Glasgow event too, minus the baby. Suffice to say, the Iraq protests aren't events that I look back on with much nostalgic affection.
"I was right, and my being right helped no one, ameliorated no violence, saved no lives".
I think Sarah's actually more correct than she intended, here. Being right about the war has had very little real-world effect, beyond filling the internet with angry blog posts and giving a lot of MPs sore heads.
Not only did our powerful correctness not stop the war, it also failed to so much as impede the catastrophic occupation, and didn't affect our wacky occupation of Afghanistan one jot. It didn't keep the UK from bombing Libya into its current state, nor does it hinder the Americans' worldwide video game shoot 'em up, not least because it's that nice Mr Obama that's now in charge.
I could go on, but I'll stick with this: even after the Iraq debacle, a catastrophe with a respectable bodycount for a medium-sized 20th century war, do you know how many MPs voted against bombing Libya?
Thirteen. Thirteen, against five hundred and fifty-seven in favour.
That doesn't speak of wild success for the anti-war movement, to me*.
Anyway, that's the bits I agree with. There are numerous parts that I don't:
"The legacy of Blair's tenure is not unmixed, but it is easier – much easier – to be right about everything when you don't have to enact your policies".
Call me spiteful and stubborn if you will, but it's also easier to be right about everything - and about one very specific thing in particular - if you don't basically wager your political career on a series of wild exaggerations and half-truths, in the hope that everything will turn out alright in the end.
"I was right that the case for war was bad, and rushed. But there was a case for war – maybe a sufficient one, maybe not, but a better one than 45 minutes. Saddam Hussein was monstrous. He killed and killed and killed. The choice was never a simple one between the good of non-intervention and the ill of intervention: doing nothing and leaving a genocidal dictator in power was an ill too, and the fact that what was done was done badly does not change that".
Let's leave aside the fact that these are euphemisms for a war of aggression and an extremely violent military occupation of very dubious legal status - which they are - and note that one Vietnam War should surely be enough for anyone.
It's unfortunate that our political leaders wrecked at least one country while they were drunk out of their minds on their grand unipolar moment, but there's a cold, hard truth here: they don't get a rebate on their bodycount, just because they had good taste in enemies.
I'm not generally receptive to this "these choices are equal, because you would've left Saddam in power" horseshit when it comes from the Rentouls of this world, and I'm no more welcoming now. If I strongly advise you not to stick your dick in a blender, and you do it anyway, we are not equally culpable for the mess. Nor will I be much interested in listening to any theories about how much worse it could've been, if you hadn't stuck your dick in a blender.
For the last ten years, pro-war types have always been far more enthusiastic about discussing the general principles of humanitarian intervention than they have been to focus upon the specific case of the Iraq War. They do this for the same reasons that Jonathan King would greatly prefer to talk about, say, standards of evidence in criminal trials, than he would to address any specific allegations of noncing.
"It would have been better, in fact, to prove ourselves wrong – to divert political energies from stopping the war (or being right that the war should never have started) and into building a plan for Iraq after Saddam".
This is the full Euston Manifesto gambit, I'm afraid. Okay, you might have thought the invasion was insanely dangerous and irresponsible, but the moral thing to do now that it's happened is to get right behind the occupation and help the Iraqis to pull for democracy. The difficulty, of course, is that the occupation was even more violent and deranged than the invasion was in the first place.
Somehow, I don't think that any amount of charity bingo nights or car washes would've made us any more palatable now, if we'd continued to demand that the coalition GTF out of Iraq pronto.
But I think the following is the crux of the matter:
"It took until 2012 for rape apologist Assange supporters to kill that certainty off in me..."
"The left is not even nearly done with the comforting confidence of an Iraq-based ethics system – for example, the organisation Media Lens..."
"An aside: over ten years later, I am very sure that if you "question" the existence of Israel, a state that has given refuge to a universally persecuted people, you are in fact an anti-Semite..."
In the UK at least, these are all examples of internet-based phenomena. I've never met an actual declared Assange supporter; nor have I bumped into anyone from Media Lens, so far as I'm aware.
I've met a lot of crazies over the years. I've met real people who told me that MI5 are hiding secret oil fields to thwart Scottish independence; I've met more than one who thinks that Labour imported lots of immigrants to dilute the votes of patriotic white people. I once met a man who thought MI6 had planted a bug in his head to "control his opinions"... but I've never met anyone face-to-face who complained about "Zionists" or theorised about the many-tentacled Israel lobby.
And I live in Scotland, a place where - going by some of the press coverage I've seen over the years - we are infested with rabid anti-Jewish racists, mostly because of the activities of about fifty people that live in Glasgow. While we can legitimately worry about those people, the total population of Scotland pushes six million.
So when I see stuff like this about, say, Who-The-Fuck-Are-They websites like Media Lens, it's hard for me to get past the idea that what I'm looking at, is basically somebody denouncing their Twitter feed.
And that's fine - I do it all the time myself, as it happens... But didn't we all just agree that Twitter is a big bubble, an echo chamber, utterly unreflective of the world at large?
Anyway, I think Sarah makes some good points and some bad ones. I think it's certainly true that large chunks of the left, myself included, are intolerable as a result of the Iraq War... Assuming, that is, that we restrict "the left" here to mean "people on the internet, political columnists and campaigners who never shut up about the Iraq War". As a nation, we'll never want for volunteers to call people "Neocon warmongers" and the like on the opinion pages of the Guardian.
So Mea maxima culpa. There are a lot of us to this day, and we have many, many good excuses for being as much of a bunch of pricks as we are about this and many other matters, but that doesn't make us any more charming than we aren't.
As much of a prick as I am though, I like to think that I'm a prick with a sense of proportion.
*At this point, some joker usually pops up and tells us that anti-war sentiment at least kept us from bombing Syria. Maybe this is even correct, but I prefer to think of it as an outbreak of sanity.
Recall - what kept us from bombing Syria was the fact that the government's entire plan could fairly be summarised as: "Let's bung a load of missiles at Damascus and see what happens". Sharp-eyed observers will note that this plan was not notably different from those used by such tactical geniuses as the leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
Ed Miliband then offered conditional support, if David Cameron could answer a few difficult questions; questions such as
"What are you trying to achieve here";
"Are you sure that this is legal", and
"Are you dragging us all into another dipshit bloodbath".
For some unfathomable reason, HM Government couldn't adequately respond to these questions. Thus, there was no war.
We might say that this was common sense, or that Ed had an eye on the polls, but you can be sure that if the government had produced a plan capable of standing up to a moment's scrutiny, it would've been Bombs away all over again.

Descendants of the abolitionist and women's suffragist Harriet Tubman convened in Atlanta recently for a proclamation presentation by Atlanta City Council and weeklong events reuniting family members from across the nation.
With support from media advocate Sharon Hill and "Sights and Sounds" curator James Horton, Friday, July 6, 2012, was declared Harriet Ross Tubman Day in the city of Atlanta. The Tubman Museum, located an hour away in Macon, Ga., joined in the celebration offering free tours to the public for the Harriet Ross Tubman Day.
Echoing the words of Tubman's enduring command to passengers aboard the Underground Railroad: "Keep Goin!" family members accepted the proclamation honoring the legacy of their great ancestor from author/attorney Harold Michael Harvey; and performed skits depicting Tubman's life, during the opening reception of the Sights and Sounds Black Cultural Museum Exhibit, Friday, at Greenbriar Mall.
Tubman's family, ranging in age from 10 months to 79 years old, and from various states including Auburn, N.Y. – the final home of Tubman – reflected during the occasion with vivid stories of how they "kept going" the family going through many trials including divorce, unemployment and illness. Several members also shared stories of academic accomplishments and of many projects and papers done collectively between them on Tubman, all of which received A's.
"Keep going means many things to us," said Geraldine Copes Daniels, the great grand-niece and oldest surviving relative of Tubman. "It means get educated, go to college, get a career." Her daughter Rita Daniels, a domestic violence survivor added: "We've all gone through a lot. I've been beat down and left for dead, but setback is not in our DNA."
Tubman, otherwise known as "Moses" and "General Tubman," endured a number of hardships throughout her life as a slave, Civil-War spy, and while defiantly leading 300 men, women, and children to freedom along the covert and dangerous, water and land routes of the Underground Railroad. She used the master's horse and buggy, packed a sedative drug for babies who might cry, and carried a shotgun for pursuers – and for scared fugitives who considered turning back. She also suffered from seizures and sleeping spells – the result of being struck in the head with a two-pound weight by an angry overseer, at the age of 12. Her most harrowing mission was rescuing her parents, who were manumitted slaves forced into continued labor by masters who disregarded their legally granted free status. Aided by compassionate Quakers, Native Americans, and an unyielding faith in God, Tubman never lost a passenger.
Carrying out 19 missions, Tubman eventually retired to Auburn, where she purchased a home from New York Sen. William H. Seward, continued to aid destitute children, helped to create freedmen's schools, and founded the Home for Aged and Indigent Colored People.She died in 1913, and received several honors following her death: a bronze memorial by the city of Auburn at the Cayuga County Courthouse; dedication of the Liberty Ship by Eleanor Roosevelt in 1944; a U.S. Postal commemorative stamp; and the opening of the Freedom Park in Auburn.
Legislative bills currently in the House and Senate will consider the creation of a Harriet Tubman National Historical Park in Auburn and a similar park in Maryland, where she was born and delivered most slaves from. Sassafras Ridge Mountain Development will also host Geraldine Daniels in the North Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina Triangle, where the noted Underground Railroad "trail of tears" is chartered through.
"She was a fearless soldier. There was no Harriet Tubman in books when I was in school. The nation needs to know and remember who she was. That is one of the reasons why we have all come together and will keep going," said Daniels.

The Los Alamos Hilltopper boys soccer team will host the 16th annual Louie Cernieck Invitational starting Friday morning.
Los Alamos (0-1) and a solid group of teams will battle it out Friday and Saturday for the tournament's traveling trophy.
The Cernicek tournament is considered one of the most competitive in Northern New Mexico — so tough, in fact, that the Hilltoppers have won the tournament only once since 2004.
The Hilltoppers will play the defending tournament champs, the Belen Eagles. The Eagles finished second in Class 4A last year but their 2012 season has gotten off to a rough start, losing games to Artesia and Hope Christian by a combined 10-1.
Los Alamos and Belen will face off at 9 a.m. Friday at Sullivan Field. Three of the tournament games, including Friday's first round contests of Clovis-Goddard and Farmington-Bernalillo, will be played on the new surface at Los Alamos Middle School.
Los Alamos vs. Belen, Sullivan Field, 9 a.m.
Clovis vs. Goddard, Los Alamos Middle School, 9 a.m.
Piedra Vista vs. Roswell, Sullivan Field, 11 a.m.
Farmington vs. Bernalillo, Los Alamos Middle School, 11 a.m.
Los Alamos-Belen loser vs. Clovis-Goddard loser, Sullivan Field, 1 p.m.
Piedra Vista-Roswell loser vs. Farmington-Bernalillo loser, Los Alamos Middle School, 3 p.m.
Los Alamos-Belen winner vs. Clovis-Goddard winner, Sullivan Field, 8 a.m.
Piedra Vista-Roswell winner vs. Farmington-Bernalillo winner, Sullivan Field, 10 a.m.
Seventh-place game, Sullivan Field, noon.
Fifth-place game, Sullivan Field, 2 p.m.

Could the medical community be overlooking 2.5 million people who have diabetes? Currently, 23.6 million children and adults in the United States, or 7.8 percent of the population, have diabetes. Although an estimated 17.9 million of them have been diagnosed, 5.7 million (nearly one quarter) are unaware that they have the disease. If lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) people comprise 10 percent of the U.S. population, then 10 percent of people with diabetes are part of the LGBT community-about 2.5 million people.*
In June, the Diabetes And Gay Foundation of San Francisco was created to raise awareness of LGBT issues among diabetes healthcare professionals and to strengthen and support LGBT people with diabetes, their significant others, and their relationships. Although there is no science-based research about LGBT members with diabetes, many LGBT people have reported individual struggles with diabetes that they believe are directly related to their minority group status.
John Coman, who has type 1 diabetes, established the DANG Foundation to give gay and lesbian people with diabetes a safe and comfortable resource for diabetes-related information, to support them in quitting smoking (LGBT individuals smoke twice as much as straight smokers), to help them find alcohol and drug addiction services, and, most importantly, to give their partners, spouses, and families a welcoming source of support. Until the DANG Foundation, there was no diabetes-related organization that sought to address LGBT issues and concerns.
"Diabetes is a stress in any relationship," says Coman. "And when you combine that with the added stresses of life as a lesbian or a gay man-whether you are open about it or not-there is a great need for LGBT people with diabetes and the partners who support them to receive services and information geared to their unique needs."
Neither the diabetes community nor the general healthcare community has ever attempted to quantify the number of people with diabetes who identify as LGBT. Moreover, when an LGBT person with diabetes is taken to the hospital suffering from a life-threatening incident of hypoglycemia, there is often subtle discrimination and sometimes even a total disregard of the patient's desire to have his or her significant other present.
The foundation sprang from the experience of Jim Castaneda, Coman's legal spouse, when the couple went to a local emergency room. As he was being treated for kidney stones, Coman experienced an episode of hypoglycemia. While he was trying to get a nurse's attention to explain what was happening, his blood sugar sank to a dangerous 19 mg/dL and he began to have a seizure. The emergency staff rushed to raise his blood sugar and admit him to the intensive care unit, but no one bothered to tell Castaneda, who was scared and confused, what was happening to his spouse. "After I learned what had happened to Jim," says Coman, "I vowed that nobody else should ever suffer that silence and disregard."
* Editor's Note: Although the 10 percent figure is often cited, this Seattle Times article cites a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimate that there are 8.8 million gays, lesbians, and bisexuals nationwide – 2.5 to 3 percent of the total U.S. population.

magento based web
Presupuesto €180-250 EUR
I assume if you are reading requirements for this project you are familiar with magento peculiarities. I am dealing with a custom design applied on magento and most of the things are working fine, but needs some combination of backend+front end issues/bugs to be solved - the one who knows magento quirks and twists. Magento version is 126.96.36.199. I understand that developer needs very specific description on what needs to be done, but I expect natural common sense on solving the last bugs on the developed project and expecting developer's understanding that I might missed some small bugs like margin increase or decrease but I sorting out the essential tasks that needs to be performed:
> mobile bug fixes
> Implement search autocomplete function
> create Landing page
> improve a hover submenu
> customization on a thank you page
> Add gallery option with mobile friendly
> customize shopping cart as well as create onepage check out page module .
> customize shipping module
Personally, I have good understanding as a network admin and have experience on coding as well. Seeking to save your development time I will provide a testing environment for this project and when it will be working fine, all you have to do just instruct me about the files that I need to upload on a live server and the location where they need to be uploaded. I had some experiences with developers when they work on live site and without my confirmation loaded files on live server, so I prefer doing this part myself.

These are just snapshots, or "sound bytes," but they give a bit of an idea of the diversity of thought among professors teaching a variety of free online university courses (MOOCs–Massive Open Online Courses). Will similar courses be the precursors to free post-secondary for-credit classes? Might such classes result in (or at least lead to) free college education for anyone interested? Will professors be paid based on the popularity of their free online teaching–how well-attended, how well commercialized, etc.?
My questions always seem to start with the content, but then go quickly beyond the actual text and context…

Davis Magnet School emphasizes environmentalism with Eco-Education Nights, "Waste-Free Wednesdays" and an ecology center.
Now it's been chosen for a green-classroom experiment.
The Orange County U.S. Green Building Council selected the Costa Mesa K-6 campus to receive a free "greenovation" of one of its classrooms in order to collect data on the financial impact of going green.
The council hopes to reaffirm anecdotal evidence that an environmentally friendly classroom is healthier and cost-effective.
"At the U.S. Green Building Council, our vision is to see all students in this generation in a green school," said Wendy Rogers, chairwoman of the council's Green Schools Committee.
At Davis, Rooms 7 and 8, were chosen for the experiment. Room 8 was slated as the control room and kept the same. Room 7 was updated with recycled carpet, paint and tiles that release lower levels of volatile organic compounds; lighting with dimmers; ceiling-like portholes, or "Solatubes," that let the sunlight in; and an energy-efficient HVAC system.
Room 7 teacher Kelly Lopez is still figuring out the lighting options, but has already taught one morning with the lights off and the Solatubes open.
Irvine-based school design firm LPA Inc., the Walt Disney Co., McCarthy Building Cos. and Sunbelt Controls donated the work and materials. A similar renovation would cost $130,000 to $175,000.
The air and heating system is the element that has the biggest impact on the classroom occupants' health, said Rogers, a design principal at LPA Inc.
A displacement ventilation system that distributes air in the room's four corners at ground level, allowing warmer air to be used and forcing bacteria and germs up.
The system is also silent and doesn't leave the students in the middle of the room stuck freezing all day under the ventilation pipe, Lopez said.
Over the school year, the council, with the aid of the students, will collect data on electricity use, room temperature, carbon dioxide levels and relative humidity, but also the benefits of sunlight and the overall happiness of students, Rogers said.
The council wants to use the information to show school districts that going green makes financial sense, even in difficult financial times, she said.
Lopez and her students moved into the classroom last week.
"It's great — the kids love it," she said. "The Solatubes are their favorite."

UPDATE: Never mind — the Phils just acquired Revere for Vance Worley.
UPDATE: According to DOB, the Braves are talking to Minnesota about Revere.
Jon Heyman says the Phils have been talking to the Twins about Ben Revere, who's apparently available for pitching. I hope FW is on in this, because Revere, an Atlanta native, would be a perfect fit.
Revere, 24, hit .292 with 40 steals in 124 games last year. He's gifted defensively and won't be a free agent for four years.
I'd be willing to part with Delgado and Sean Gilmartin to make it happen.

Not two hours after he performed his passion project in an 88-seat theater on a recent Sunday night, Ross Golan made the rounds at a Grammy after-party hosted by Daft Punk, smiling as Jay Z and Beyoncé glided by and making nice with Madonna and Skrillex and Pharrell Williams.
Inhabiting either world would have been inconceivable five years ago to Golan, whose first rock band had failed, whose second was flailing and whose days were spent toiling in his condo. Which was in foreclosure.
Now, with a resumé that includes writing songs for the likes of Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, Maroon 5, Cee Lo Green, Demi Lovato, Keith Urban and Lady Antebellum, the 33-year-old Chicago native is engaging in something of a crossover — Golan is the writer and star of "The Wrong Man," a theatrical production onstage at the Skylight Theatre in Los Feliz.
PHOTOS: Arts and culture in pictures by The Times
Billed as "an underground musical," "The Wrong Man" comprises 14 songs telling the story of a man falsely convicted of murder in Reno. It's the stuff of folk tragedies, a boy-meets-girl tale that goes wildly off the rails as a tryst turns into an unwanted pregnancy and then a vengeful frame-up by an estranged husband. Armed with just an acoustic guitar, his crooner's tenor and a thicket of lyrics, Golan plays the role of the protagonist Duran, holding forth from his cell on death row.
"The Wrong Man," directed and choreographed by four-time Ovation Award winner Lee Martino and featuring dancer Jennifer Brasuell as love interest Mariana, is staged deftly, with Brasuell's interpretive moves along with lighting and projected visuals setting a sensual but haunting mood for Golan's song cycle, which he began 10 years ago when he was a brash rocker fresh out of USC.
"There's a lot of metaphor for me in 'The Wrong Man,'" says Golan, who got his first record deal when he was in his early 20s and endured many of the industry's bumps and bruises (some of the legal kind) along the way. "I think there's nothing worse than when somebody gets screwed over, when somebody breaks your trust. You want to believe that the government and the legal system will do the right thing, but sometimes they don't. So this story definitely parallels a few situations in my life."
PHOTOS: Best in theater for 2013 | Charles McNulty
The story is a twist on Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues," whose narrator, of course, shoots a man in Reno "just to watch him die." "I always thought it interesting," Golan says, "that as a listener you have empathy for this guy who admits to killing another person."
But at the same time the songwriter was motivated by the controversy over capital punishment in his native Illinois, which put a moratorium on the death penalty in 2000 and eventually abolished it in 2011 over concerns about wrongly condemned men.
Musically, "The Wrong Man" can be described as R. Kelly meets Tom Waits, with the melodic sensibilities of artists like Justin Timberlake, Jason Mraz and Ben Harper — it's not far from the rap-reggae-rock hybrid that got the songwriter's trio, Ross Golan & Molehead, noticed in the first place.
The band released the album "Reagan Baby" in 2004, and the mélange of quick-witted ditties included political volleys, a swipe at then-jailbird Martha Stewart and a takedown of rapper Eminem.
"It was right after 9/11, I was 21 years old, and I thought we were all going to get drafted," Golan says. "I started writing very political songs because there were very few outspoken lyricists in our generation and I felt it was important to say something."
PHOTOS: Hollywood stars on stage
Embraced by tastemakers and ignored by the public, "Reagan Baby" sold but 8,000 copies. "Here was a white guy with an acoustic guitar doing rap-reggae songs — what aisle in the record store do you put that in?" Golan says. "But it was a successful failure for me. On one hand, I was validated by the record industry, and on the other I got to see what it was like to hate your own band."
Out of those ashes came the band Glacier Hiking, his collaboration with Tommy Walter, a founding member of Eels. They ascended to the level of local club headliner (current pop darlings Haim opened for them four years ago this month) before that project fizzled too.
"It was all part of the learning curve," Golan says. "You can use a baseball analogy for my career. Everybody wants to be Yasiel Puig, the guy who walks in and changes the industry like some weird prodigy. I'm not that guy. ... Me, I got drafted but spent time in the minor leagues."
Golan's break came when a friend put him in a studio co-writing with pop acts. "At first I was just another guy in the room — people more often would ask me to go get them coffee. But eventually I started getting cuts," Golan says. "If you want to know what it's like to be a songwriter, walk into a room with somebody you don't know and start singing at him, and then ask him what he thinks. That's what I do for a living."
CRITICS' PICKS: What to watch, where to go, what to eat
He remembers finishing a song that would end up on Maroon 5's album "Overexposed" just as he lost the condo he'd bought years earlier when he was a young gun. "My life at that point was so dark," Golan says. "But I'd rather sell my condo to live my dream than sell my dream to live in the condo."
Throughout his professional ups and downs, he often returned to the project that began in 2004 when he penned the title track to "The Wrong Man." The song cycle, fleshed out as Golan performed the piece at living-room shows, grew to include narratives encompassing the whole back story — the pickup in the bar, the liaison, Duran's attack of conscience, Mariana's pregnancy, the murder, the arrest and the trial.
The real perpetrator, not coincidentally, is a man in black. Sometimes singing, sometimes rapping, Golan infuses each yarn with vivid lyrics, like his rapid-fire description of Reno from "What Happens Here Stays Here":
"Bright lights bestowed the omens/ For tourists and Mormons/ Strippers and showmen/ High rollers and poor men/ Valets and doormen/ Whores and casino floor men/ Newlyweds and bachelors/ And resident Renoans/ While their kids stayed at home/ They defaulted on their loans."
PHOTOS: Celebrities by The Times
Co-producer Susan Dietz, who produced the Pulitzer Prize-winning "Topdog/Underdog" on Broadway and whose 30-plus years in Southern California theater include positions at the Pasadena Playhouse, Beverly Hills' Canon Theatre and L.A. Stage Company, learned of "The Wrong Man" after Golan performed it at entertainment attorney John T. Frankenheimer's house.
"I was very taken by it," she says. "There's nothing like this — it's an extraordinary piece, with a musical romanticism and wistfulness that [lend themselves to] the kind of elements audiences expect in a theatrical setting."
Dietz sees it as an important inauguration for the Skylight, reinventing itself as a destination for new, original work.
Golan sees "The Wrong Man" — none of which has been recorded — as a throwback to the true storytelling tradition.
"It's anti-YouTube and anti-mp3. At some point I might record it, but for now you have to experience it," he said. "I feel like a troubadour doing a 400-year-old art form, and I get now why the trouvères of old were playing their lutes for the aristocrats. It's all about experiencing the moment."

Hi all! I know many of you may have the same line of thinking that I do when I see a fabric line that I just adore – I love Jelly Rolls, but they're too small of a cut for large print fabric. I love charm packs, but sometimes I need more. I LOVE Layer Cakes, but sometimes I just want more (it's not bad to be greedy over fabric, is it?) And that's how we come to this, enough love to go around with a Fat Eighth Bundle. You get just enough of the line to LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
With just one Fat Eighth Bundle, a border print, and a Main Backing fabric, you too can make one twin size quilt. No extra binding, no extras of anything else, you get it all and then some out of the Fat Eighth Bundle! Want to see how? Follow along…
* One Fat Eighth Bundle (I used Sugar Pop by Liz Scott)
* 2 yards for Borders (I used #18060 21)
* 4 yards for backing (I used #18064 12)
That's it, now moving on…
Choose 35 Fat Eighths to become the blocks, pieced border and binding. Set 5 Fat Eighths aside to be used in the backing of the quilt. (Try to use whatever fabric you're using for the backing in the quilt top and the border fabric in the back of the quilt)
*Important note: the following instructions are for the 35 Fat Eighths to be used in the quilt top. Cut each of these pieces exactly the same following the diagram in the top corner of the pictures. The yellow highlighted piece is the one being demonstrated in each photo.
Begin by straightening the edge of the fabric and then cutting a long strip from the side. Cut this piece the length of the fabric and make it as wide as you make your binding strips (usually 2 1/4″-2 1/2″ wide). I'm cutting mine 2 1/4″ wide. Set these aside for now.
Straighten one shorter edge of the fabric and trim two segments 3″ wide from this end.
Cut each segment into two 3″ squares. Keep these in sets of two matching squares.
From the remaining fabric, cut a strip 2 1/2″ wide and one 3 1/2″ wide.
Trim each of these strips into a 9 1/2″ and a 4 1/2″ length.
Keep all four pieces cut in this step together in a set. Put aside for now.
Of the border print, cut six strips 2 1/2″ wide and eight strips 6 1/2″ wide.
Pair contrasting sets of the 3″ squares, creating 35 pairs (one for each block). Remember, contrast is key!
(If you are planning on using an angling tool to make Half Square Triangle blocks – highly recommended – skip the next step)
Otherwise for each paired set mark a diagonal line from corner to corner on the wrong side of the lighter fabric squares. (I forgot to take pictures of these steps – sorry. But, for a how to guide on Half Square Triangles visit my blog and read my tutorial on how to accurately make Half Square Triangles step by step).
Match two of the contrasting squares from each set (one light, one dark) right sides together and sew 1/4″ from both sides of the drawn line (or use the angling tool for this step)
Cut along the drawn line or from corner to corner. Press to the darker fabric. Continue to keep the sets together.
Each Half Square Triangle unit should measure 2 1/2″ square. If they do, "square" or "true up" your piecing.
Sew together two of the Half Square Triangles from each set as shown above. Repeat for all of the sets, making two identically sewn pairs. Press the seam in the same direction as the other seams.
Rotate one of the pairs from the set and nestle the seams together.
Pin to secure the piece and stitch together.
Cut a slit in the center of the seam allowance (not through the stitching) and press the seams all circling in the same direction. This will help your block lay nice and flat and reduce bulk in the process. Repeat these steps to make all 35 pinwheels.
Match each of the pinwheel blocks with a set of the last four cut pieces from each Fat Eighth. Remember once again, contrast is key!
Stitch a 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ piece on one side of the pinwheel and a 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ piece on the opposite side. Press away from the pinwheel.
Sew a 2 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ on one side of the block and a 3 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ piece on the opposite side. Once again press away from the pinwheel. Make all 35 blocks the same.
Layout all blocks until you have the colors balanced in a way that is pleasing to you.
Begin twisting the blocks so the pinwheel is anchored in a corner. The arrows above show which corner the pinwheel should be anchored in. (This way, there are virtually no seams to line up besides the ones created when sewing each block together. It is VERY forgiving if you should happen to make a mistake…not that it ever happens…) If you notice, every other block is anchored in the same corner.
Sew on the first border consisting of the 2 1/2″ strips cut earlier.
Choose 13 of the long strips cut and set aside earlier from the Fat Eighths to be used for the next border. Cut each of these strips into two or three random lengths.
I then threw mine into a clean paper bag and randomly drew them out one at a time to sew into one long chain.
The chain will be quite long. Press all of the seams in one direction.
If you sew this border onto the quilt always with the seam towards you (like in the picture above) you will not have to worry about the seam flipping positions on you and it will make it much easier to attach the next border.
Sew this pieced border onto the quilt, one side at a time.
Sew the last border onto the quilt using the 6 1/2″ wide strips cut earlier.
Remember these five fabrics we set aside at the beginning? Now it's their turn to be used. Trim these prints (like the border strips) into random lengths anywhere from 9″ x 9″ – 9″ x 15″ or so. Also trim the backing fabric into two equal length pieces approximately 72″.
Sew the random pieces into another large pieced strip. Trim this strip to match the length of the larger backing pieces. (measure to get it exact or really close)
Sew the pieced strip in between the two backing pieces. Press away from the pieced strip.
With 16 of the remaining long strips from each Fat Eighth, stitch these together to make yourself a scrappy binding to match the quilt. Press the length of the strip in half, wrong sides together making one really long strip.
Quilt however your heart desires, this is what I happened to do on mine. Attach your binding and…
Voila! One absolutely adorable (or handsome if made for a guy) twin size quilt!
Complete with a pieced back to add a little flair. (You either have to add this pieced strip in the back or get an additional piece for backing as 4 yards will not be enough, but once you see this, why wouldn't you want to add the pieced strip in? Plus you already have the fabric for it in the Fat Eighth Bundle!)
You can see how using the strips in many parts of the quilt ties it all together.
And the quilting just finishes it off.
Wouldn't this just be perfect for a growing kid?
Stop by my blog and say hi! or e-mail me if you have any questions about this tutorial. I'd love to see any pictures of your version of this quilt. You can e-mail them to me and I'll post them on my blog or you can add them to the Moda Bake Shop group on Flickr. Until next time!Rebecca SilbaughRuby Blue Quilting Studio

Irish sporting legend Mickey Harte led a massive rally in support of beleaguered and bankrupt billionaire Sean Quinn on Sunday night.
Harte, manager of the Tyrone football team, was just one of a number of sporting celebrities who joined over four thousand people in Cavan to show their support for Quinn.
A handwritten letter from Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary in support of Quinn was read to the gathering.
For decades the Quinn Group was the largest employer in the unemployment black spot border area providing as many as 7,000 jobs.
Quinn made a disastrous punt in Anglo Irish stock just as the bank was collapsing. Now the bank is pursuing him and his family to recover guarantees he gave which number in the billions of dollars.
Former Meath manager Sean Boylan, All-Ireland winning Armagh boss Joe Kernan, and legendary players Colm O'Rourke and Jarlath Burns, also attended the march.
Together with outspoken priest Fr Brian D'Arcy, they took to the stage at the local GAA club when an emotional Quinn addressed the huge crowd.
As his son Sean Jnr serves a three month prison sentence, Quinn thanked those who had supported him after the collapse of his multi-billion Euro empire in his ongoing battle with the former Anglo Irish Bank.
Once the richest man in Ireland, Quinn was close to tears as he said, "It might be a bit emotional for me this evening speaking in my home town.
"Since March 2010, when Quinn was put into receivership, the support has been outstanding. A propaganda war has been waged against Quinn for the past 28 months.
"A story has been told that is not a true story. We hope that the intelligent people will understand the difference.
"One special guest that knows all about justice, or lack of it, is Mickey Harte. I think he and his family came through it with dignity and we hope we can come through it with half the dignity that he did."
Accompanied by his wife Patricia and his extended family, Quinn heard a number of celebrity speakers address the crowd in Ballyconnell.
Protesters waved placards which read, 'Free Sean Jnr, he's no criminal' and, 'Anglo Steals a Business. Quinns get Jail. Why?'
Tyrone football boss Harte, whose daughter Michaela was murdered on honeymoon in Mauritius last year, drew the biggest cheer of the night.
He told the crowd: "Evil prevails when good people do nothing. It is payback time for Sean Quinn."
All-Ireland winner Boylan added: "Every man in this country is entitled to justice."
O'Rourke said: "Nobody should take any solace in the public humiliation of the Quinn family. You never kick a man when he is down."
Outspoken cleric Fr Brian D'Arcy, a family friend, told the crowd: "We have a duty to stand by our neighbours when they're in trouble.
"Seán Quinn and his family brought prosperity and jobs to the area from stony rocks.
"In doing so, he brought peace to the country by creating thousands of jobs and this removed the oxygen for violence."
The former Armagh football manager Joe Kernan, declared bankrupt in Belfast two years ago, said: "I call for justice to be done. Let Seán Quinn build another empire".
There was no sign of Quinn's nephew Peter Darragh at the march.
He is currently the subject of an arrest warrant in the Republic after he was sentenced to serve three months for contempt of court, along with his cousin Sean Jnr.
Peter Darragh Quinn didn't show up in court in Dublin for his sentencing, but was photographed at a football match in his native Fermanagh last Friday along with his father Peter, the former GAA president.

Airbus Rolls Out its Second A350 XWB Composite Fuselage Demonstrator
12 October 2009
12 October 2009
The A350 XWB programme has recently completed a second large test fuselage section, which incorporates many of the manufacturing advances planned for the production of this next-generation Airbus jetliner.
Manufacturing innovations applied to the demonstrator included the production of large carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) panels - the largest with a chord length of 5.5 metres. The A350 XWB's extensive use of carbon fibre reinforced plastic is a significant advance: its panels, frames, window frames, clips, and door are made from it, with a hybrid door frame structure consisting of CFRP and titanium being used for the first time.
With a length of 18 metres and a diameter of more than six metres, the demonstrator closely reflects the A350 XWB fuselage's final design. This section was used to develop and validate the complete process chain - from the manufacture of individual panels, frames and clips, to shell assembly, section assembly and the production of circumferential joints.
The fuselage section supports Airbus' validation of design principles and sizing methods for the A350 XWB, and it will be utilised as part of the aircraft's certification process - serving for tests that focus primarily on the fatigue and damage tolerance of composite structures.
The fuselage demonstrator was developed with the involvement of 11 Airbus plants in Germany, France and Spain. While this unit was built in three sections, the actual A350 XWB will feature continuous fuselage composite panels of 16-18 metres in length.
Airbus is building the A350 XWB in response to widespread market demand for a family of highly efficient, medium-capacity long-range widebody aircraft. The A350 XWB has the widest fuselage in its category, and is available in three different versions. Firm orders for the A350 XWB currently stand at 493 from 31 customers worldwide.

DataNucleus jars are OSGi bundles, and as such, can be deployed in an OSGi environment. Being an OSGi environment care must be taken with respect to class-loading. In particular the persistence property datanucleus.primaryClassLoader will need setting. Please refer to the following guide(s) for assistance until a definitive guide can be provided
An important thing to note : any dependent jar that is required by DataNucleus needs to be OSGi enabled. By this we mean the jar needs to have the MANIFEST.MF file including ExportPackage for the packages required by DataNucleus. Failure to have this will result in ClassNotFoundException when trying to load its classes.
Note that the jdo-api.jar that is included in the DataNucleus distribution is OSGi enabled (as is Apache JDO jars for v3.0.1+). Also the Geronimo "jpa" jar that is included in the DataNucleus distribution is OSGi enabled too.
When using DataNucleus in an Eclipse Equinox OSGi environment you can use the persistence property datanucleus.plugin.pluginRegistryClassName as org.datanucleus.plugin.EclipsePluginRegistry and when in other OSGi environments set that property to org.datanucleus.plugin.OSGiPluginRegistry .
In a non OSGi world the persitence provider implementation is loaded using the service provider pattern. The full qualified name of the implementation is stored in a file under META-INF/services/javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceProvider (inside the jar of the implementation) and each time the persistence provider is required it gets loaded with a Class.forName using the name of the implementing class found inside the META-INF/services/javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceProvider . In the OSGi world that doesn't work. The bundle that needs to load the persistence provider implementation cannot load META-INF/services/javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceProvider . A work around is to copy that file inside each bundle that requires access to the peristence provider. Another work around is to export the persistence provider as OSGi service. This is what the DataNucleus JPA jar does.
Further reading available on this link
If you go to DataNucleus sample downloads you will find a sample called datanucleus-samples-osgi-jpa . This provides a simple example that you can build and load into such as Apache Karaf to demonstrate JPA persistence. Here we attempt to highlight the key aspects specific to OSGi in this sample.
Model classes are written in the exact same way as you would for any application.
Creation of the EMF is specified in a persistence-unit as normal except that we need to provide two overriding properties
Map<Object, Object> overrideProps = new HashMap(); overrideProps.put("datanucleus.primaryClassLoader", this.getClass().getClassLoader()); overrideProps.put("datanucleus.plugin.pluginRegistryClassName", "org.datanucleus.plugin.OSGiPluginRegistry"); EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("PU", overrideProps);
so we have provided a class loader for the OSGi context of the application, and also specified that we want to use the OSGiPluginRegistry .
All persistence and query operations using EntityManager etc thereafter are identical to what you would use in a normal JSE/JEE application.
The pom.xml also defines the imports/exports for our OSGi application bundle, so look at this if wanting guidance on what these could look like when using Maven and the "felix bundle" plugin.
If you read the file README.txt you can see basic instructions on how to deploy this application into a fresh download of Apache Karaf, and run it. It makes uses of Spring DM to start the JPA "application".

"SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING" (2017) Review
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) released its 秒 film for the 2017 Summer season - "SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING". Although this film marked the first time a solo Spider-man film within the MCU franhise, it marked the 秒 appearance of the Peter Parker/Spider-Man in a MCU film. The character made its first appearance in 2016's "CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR". In an odd way, this film could be seen as a sequel to the 2016 movie. .
After several months of speculation, it is finally happening. Sony link Spider-Man's film rights with Marvel Studios, meaning that Spider-Man will be featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Spider-Man will make an appearance in Captain America: Civil War for 2016 and will later be featured in his own movie in 2017.

"THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN" (2012) Review
Five years after the release of 2007's "SPIDER-MAN 3", Sony Pictures and Marvel Films decided to release a new SPIDER-MAN movie. The latter proved not to be a third sequel to the 2002 movie, "SPIDER-MAN". Instead, it turned out to be a franchise re-boot featuring a new actor in the lead and the first film of a new series of films.
With Andrew ガーフィールド now portraying Peter Parker aka Spider-Man and Marc Webb directing, "THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN" commenced upon an entirely new saga about the web...
Mary Jane Watson, who doesn't know about her? Successful model/actress, Spidey's girlfriend later turned wife...If you're into Spider-man あなた at least must know about Mary Jane and her 全体, 全体的です presence in the Spidey universe.
Yet for some inexplicable reason, it seems that Mary Jane has gathered a lot of hate in the 最近 years (while Gwen Stacy, Spidey's doomed girlfriend, has been placed on a pedestal), whether it be from poor reinterpretations of her, annoyed fans, または writers who just don't get her character.
"SPIDER-MAN" (2002) Review
I have been a major ファン of the Marvel Comics character, Spider-Man, for a long time. When I was a kid, I used to read "The Amazing Spider-Man" comic strip from my local newspaper on a daily basis. I was also a regular viewer of the reruns from the 1967-70 animated series "SPIDER-MAN" and the 1978-79 テレビ series, "THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN", which starred Nicholas Hammond. So when Columbia Pictures released a movie version of the comic book web crawler twelve years ago, I was a happy camper.
This 記事 is written によって Mike Ryan, the senior editor of ScreenCrush
First thing, if あなた haven't yet seen 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2,' あなた should not be 読書 this 記事 as it contains major spoilers for the ending of the film.
Okay, now that that business is out of the way … director Marc Webb has been hinting for some time that the events in his film could eventually emulate what occurred in the pages of 'The Amazing Spider-Man' #121, which (last chance) depicts the death of Peter Parker's 愛 interest,...
SINGAPORE/LOS ANGELES, FEBRUARY 25TH, 2014: Following the 最近 announcement that Spider-Man is the first Super Hero ambassador for Earth Hour, the global movement organised によって WWF, Andrew ガーフィールド and Emma Stone from the highly anticipated motion picture The Amazing Spider-Man 2 have chosen to back two separate projects on 'Earth 時 Blue', a new crowdfunding and crowdsourcing platform for the planet.
With a message to inspire individuals to use their power to become a Super Hero for the planet, the new platform launched from Earth Hour's global headquarters in Singapore...
there are 2 different series of spiderman 映画 which have 2 different actors. 1st is Spiderman trilogy. The spiderman trilogy is a total sell out but various of the people didn't liked the role of Toby McGuire. As he seems like a total idiot in that role.I am not offending anybody but that is the truth.
2nd is The Amazing Spiderman which is recently released. Andrew ガーフィールド is totally right for this 芝居 job. He is handsome and has the potential to make himself a movie 星, つ星 legend.
My フレンズ and I decided to go see a movie. They agreed that they wanted to see the ""Amazing Spider-Man" and invited me along. Even though I probably would have rather seen "Brave", I decided to go, figuring that it was probably a decent movie and that seeing as how I am taking a screenwriting course this 年 and have never seen a superhero movie, it was probably a good idea.
I was completely blown away. I loved that film and am waiting for it to come out on DVD so I can run out and buy it.

|Question about fatique and Sustiva
Mar 1, 2008
Dr Bob,
I was wondering if you would give me some advice with some of my concerns about Sustiva? (hope this isn't too long)
I've been on this medication for seven months. In that time I've gone: From CD4=336/19% VL=1,080,000 To CD4=886/33.6% VL=undetectable
I've also been on a very very strict diet of <5g of saturated fats per day, which has taken me: FROM:: Weight:242 Trigs:307 Total-Choles:197 HDL:26 RATIO:7.58 LDL:109
TO:: Weight:195.5 Trigs:105 Total-Choles:155 HDL:33 RATIO:4.69 LDL:93
All my Hemo and Chem panels are in solid green territory.
Since Xmas I've been suffering the following "side-effects": 1) Memory "fuzziness", beyond just age 2) Diminished vision in my left eye 3) General malaise and loss of productivity in the mornings, that is starting to effect my work
In January, I wrote in to Dr Whol about the first two symptoms, and based on the information I provided he suggested that I speak with my HIV specialist about a possible adverse reaction to Sustiva being one possible root cause for these neurological issues.
After a lot of looking we figured out that the issue was being caused by the fact that I was eating, what equated to a full meal, each night when I took the Sustiva. Since I wasn't having any of the obvious GI related side-effects we assumed that I was tolerating the Sustiva very well, and the Dr said that my practice of an occasional bowl of sherbet before bed was probably fine. But during the holidays, with all the left overs, that occasional snack pretty much started to turn into a full meal.
So we figured out that with eating as much as I was when taking the Sustiva, that my absorption was very high, which may have caused some of the problems I was seeing. So I stopped eating two hours before and after my dosage of Sustiva and issues #1 and #2 disappeared in about three days. Honestly I was a little surprised that the issues resolved so quickly, and that really gives me some new insight on how active these drugs are.
The issue now is that I'm still having problems with my third issue: "General malaise and loss of productivity in the mornings, that is starting to effect my work."
Just to confirm that my diet wasn't having an adverse effect on my hormone levels (to reach such low saturated fat levels, a goodly part of my diet is now Soy), we even ordered a test of hormones, which all came back normal.
So, finally, my question: How likely is it that Sustiva is the culprit for this remaining issue? I'm going to engage my "Employee Assistance Program [EAP]" at work to get some focused psychological counseling, to help me try to wrap my hands around my problems of procrastinating, but I'm also wondering if I should seriously consider going off the Sustiva? Since my results have been so dramatically good, I really don't want to mess with a good thing, but if I can't get my arms around this loss of productivity then I'm going to be in serious trouble, and soon.
Another *BIG OL BEAR HUG*, -Zac
Response from Dr. Frascino
Hey Zac,
General malaise, loss of productivity in the mornings and procrastination are all rather general complaints. Psychological evaluation is a good idea. There are a variety of psychological conditions, ranging from depression to anxiety, which can be associated with symptoms like these. As for Sustiva, one possible way it could be related would be its tendency to cause vivid dreams and disrupt sleep. If you are not getting adequate sleep/rest at night, that could account for some of your sluggishness in the morning. Some folks also complain that Sustiva just makes them feel like a "wool-headed zombie." You could try taking the Sustiva a bit earlier in the evening (if convenient) to see if there is any difference the next morning. I certainly agree your results on Sustiva have been excellent both virologically (viral load plummeting form 1,080,000 to undetectable) and immunologically (CD4 count skyrocketing form 336 to 886). Consequently we wouldn't want to switch off this regimen unless you were fairly certain the symptoms you are experiencing are indeed related to the drug. If indeed a switch is necessary, a new drug in the same class as Sustiva (non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) has recently been FDA approved. It's called Intelence. And from the limited experience we have to date it does not have a Sustiva-like side effect profile.
Thanks again for the hugs. Consider yourself cyber-hugged back.
Dr. Bob

I will be getting DmC. Don't care what the butthurt haters think. Now one should care if the game their playing is popular. I play games to have fun. Because that's what gamers did back then. Now all you see is trolling. Can imagine how the next gen will be like.
easy to confuse the two,harder yet to separate them.
I will also be picking up my copy of DmC on the 15th. can't wait
