From: Starting Accutane: My Story And [Hopefully] My Progress! (Pics Included)
Entry posted by canuckchick ·

Hello, my name is Lynn, and this is my story.
I am 20 years old, 98lbs, and 5'3". My dermatologist has just prescribed me 20mg (twice daily) of Claravis (Accutane).
All of my life, I've been told I'm a beautiful girl with beautiful skin. Things were going good for me; I got scouted by a few modeling agencies for beauty shots (too short to do anything else!), did well in school, was close with friends and family, and generally led a stress-free life. (Imagine that, right?)
In a few short years, that all changed. I had to move to a new country during my senior year of high school (I was 17 then). It was an incredibly stressful move since I had to leave my friends and extended family, deal with culture shock, and also a drastically different climate. I was born and raised in chilly Canada, and now I live in an area with a year-round tropical climate.
During the move, I started getting acne, likely because of all of the stress. Prior to this, I maybe had one or two pimples my entire life--I thought I was going to dodge the acne-ridden years of puberty. It wasn't too bad at first, a breakout here or there, maybe one that turned cystic every now and then. I thought I could manage it and tried not to let it bother me too much.
The pimples soon subsided, but I have never been able to shake the cystic acne. For 3 years, I've battled against them, to no avail. Every time I get one to go away, another takes its place. I tried scheduling photoshoots around breakouts but soon had to quit modeling altogether because there wasn't time where my skin was clear. I became very withdrawn and shy as my confidence disappeared.
I know I don't have it as bad as some other people, since I usually get only one cyst at a time (Max I've had at once was 4), and so far, I haven't had any scarring. (Thank God.) I try to keep things in perspective, tell myself that it's a superficial problem, that at least I'm healthy every where else, and I surround myself with my loving family and friends who help me greatly. But as a young girl in the prime of her life, it's been extremely difficult having to deal with this.
I have been seeing a dermatologist for 2 full years now and everything he has tried has never succeeded. I've used several topical ointments, been on 5 different antibiotics (including every kind of tetracycline) and nothing has worked the way I wanted it to. I found that doxycycline worked the best for me and managed to keep my cystic acne supressed, usually flaring up every couple of months. But the side effects eventually took their toll on me; I had severe stomach pain, fatigue, and I lost a lot of weight. I was switched to minocycline which had (a little bit of) less severe side effects, but didn't work as well as the doxy. I had to choose between living with painful cystic acne or living with painful stomach aches and dropping pounds that I couldn't afford to lose. I quit the tetracyclines and my acne immediately flared up again. Out of options, my dermatologist suggested Accutane.
I was very nervous after hearing all of the side effects, but I trust him, and frankly I'm out of any other option. I went through I-Pledge, the blood tests, all of that, and got cleared to pick up my prescription earlier this month. I have been taking Accutane for 6 days.
When I began my prescription, my face was clear; I had no cysts. (A rare occurence for me!) At around Day 4 was when the side effects started showing. I woke up to a nosebleed and itchy dry skin everywhere. I also started developing pimples and cysts all over my chin.
Here I am on Day 1 of Accutane:
And here I am on Day 6 of Accutane:
you'll have to bare with my...well, bare face, there is NO WAY I am wearing makeup for a long time now! My face has become INCREDIBLY oily, I'm assuming because of it being dried out, it is now overproducing oils? There is no way I can wear makeup, nor do I even want to! I have developed two pimples who have since become incredibly crusty and scabby and one cyst deep under the skin on my in the area I am pointing to.
Luckily, I just finished up with university for the year, so I am going to just chill inside and wait all of this out.
My hope is to see improvement by May: My boyfriend of 3 years, who is a soldier, will be coming back from deployment and visiting me.
Thank you to anyone who has read all of my words, it means SO much to me! I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences as well. I know there's lots of us who are on Accutane and it clearly has been a long and difficult struggle to get to this point...yet the struggle still isn't over. I just want to make it known that I'm here for you, and no matter what, I still think you're beautiful!
Best of luck everyone! I'll be sure to update here regularly, by the way!

Over the last two days I attended a workshop titled Exploiting Big Data Semantics for Translational Medicine, held at Indiana University, organized by David Wild, Ying Ding, Katy Borner and Eric Gifford. The stated goals were to explore advances in translation medicine via data and semantic technologies, with a view towards possible fundable ideas and funding opportunites. A nicely arranged workshop that was pretty intense – minimal breaks, constant thinking – which is a good use of 2 days. As you can see from the workshop website, the attendees brought a variety of skills and outlooks to the meeting. For me this was one of the most attractive features of the workshop.
This post is a rough dump of some observations & thoughts during the workshop – I'm sure I've left out important comments, provide minimal attribution and I assume there will be a more thorough report coming out from the organizers. I also point out that I am an interested bystander to this field and somewhat of a semantic web/technology (SW/T) skeptic – so some views may be naive or just wrong. I like the ideas and concepts, I can see their value, but I have not been convinced to invest significant time and efort into "semantifying" my day to day work. A major motivation for my attending this workshop was to learn what the experts are doing and see how I could incorporate some of these ideas into my own work.
The Meeting
The first day started with 5 minute introductions which was quite useful and great overview talks by three of the attendees. With the information dump, a major focus of the day was a discussion of opportunities and challenges. This was a very useful session with attendees listing specific instances of challenges, opportunities, bottlenecks and so on. I was able to take some notes on the challenges, including
- Funding – lack of it and difficulty in obtaining it (i.e., persuading funders)
- Cultural and social issues around semantic approaches (e.g., why change what's already working? etc)
- Data problems such as errors being propagated through ontologies and semantic conversion processes etc (I wonder to what extent this is a result of automated conversion processes such as D2R, versus manual errors introduced during curation. I suspect a mix of both)
- "Hilbert Problems" – a very nice term coined by Katy to represent grand challenges or open problems that could serve as seeds around which the community could nucleate. (This aspect was of particular interest as I have found it difficult to identify compelling life science use cases that justify a retooling (even partial) of current workflows.)
The second day focused on breakout sessions, based on the opportunities and challenges listed the day before. Some notes on some of these sessions:
Bridging molecular data and clinical data – this session focused on challenges and opportunities in using molecular data together with clinical data to inform clinical decision making. Three broad opportunies came out of this, viz., Advancing understanding of disease conditions, Optimizing data types/measurements for clinical decision making outcomes and Drug repurposing. Certainly very broad goals, and not particularly focused on SW/T. My impression that SW/T can play an important role in standardization and optimization of coding standards to more easily and robustly connect molecular and clinical data sources. But one certainly needn't invoke SW/T to address these opportunities
Knowledge discovery – the considerations addressed by this group included the fact that semantified data (vocabularies, ontologies etc) is increasing in volume and availability, tools are available to go from raw data to semantified forms and so on. An important point was made the quality is a key consideration at multiple levels – the raw data, the semantic representation and the links between semantic entities. A challenge identified by this group was to identify use cases that SW/T can resolve and traditional technologies cannot.
RDBMS vs semantic databases – this was an interesting session that tried to address the question of when one type of database is better than the other. It seems that the consensus was that certain problems are better suited for one type over another and a hybrid solution is usually a sensible approach – but that goes without saying. A comment was made that certain classes of problems that involve identifying paths between terms (nodes) are better suited for semantic (graph) databases – this makes intuitive sense, but there was a consensus that there weren't any realistic applications that one could point to. I like the idea – have attributes in a RDBMS, but links in a graph database and use graph queries to identify relations and entities that are then mapped to the RDBMS. My concern with this is that path traversals are easy (Neo4J does this quite efficiently) – the problem is in the explosion of possible paths between nodes and the fact that the majority of them are trivial at best or nonsensical at worst. This suggests that relevance/ranking is a concern in semantic/graph databases.
The session of most interest to me was that of grand challenges. I think we got to 5 or 6 major challenges
- How to represent knowledge (methods for, evaluation of)
- How do changes in ontologies affect scientific research over time
- How to construct an ontology from a set of ontologies (i.e. preexisting knowledge) that is better than the individual ones (and so links to how to evaluate an ontology in terms of "goodness")
- Error propagation from measurements to representation to analysis
- Visualization of multi-dimensional / high dimensional data – while a general challenge, I think it's correct that visual representations of semantified data (and their supporting infrastructure such as ontologies) could make the methods and tools much more accessible. Would've been nice if we had more discussion on this aspect
We finally ended with a discussion concrete projects that attendees would be interested in collaborating on and this was quite fruitful.
My Opinion
It turns out that a good chunk of the discussion focused on translational medicine (clinical informatics, drug repurposing etc.) and the use of different data types to enable life science research, but largely independent of SW/T. Indeed, the role of SW/T seemed rather fuzzy at times – to some extent, a useful tool, but not indispensable. My impression was that much of the SW/T that was discussed really focused on labeling of knowledge via ontologies and making links between datasets and the challenges faced during these operations (which is fine and important – but does it justify funding?).
I certainly got some conflicting views of the state of the art. Comments from Amit Sheth made it appear that SW/T is well established and the main problems are solved, based on deployed applications in the "enterprise". But comments from many of the attendes working in life sciences suggested many problems in dealing and working with semantic data. Sure, Google has it's Knowledge Graph and other search engines are employing SW/T under the hood. But if it's so well established, where are the products, tools and workflows that an informatics-savvy non-expert in SW/T can employ? Does this mean research funding is not really required and it's more of a productization/monetization issue? Or is this a domain specific issue – what works for general search doesn't necessarily work in the life sciences?
My fundamental issue is the absence of a "killer application" – an application or use case that gives a non-trivial result, that could not be achieved via traditional means. (I qualify this, by asking for such use cases in life sciences. Maybe bankers have already found their killer applications). Depending on the semantic technology one considers there are partial answers: ontologies are an example of such a use case, when used to enable linkages between datasets and sources across domains. To me this makes perfect sense (and is of particular interest and use in current projects such as BARD). But surely, there must be more than designing ontologies and annotating data with ontological terms? One of the things that was surprising to me was that some of the future problems that were considered for possible collaborations were not really dependent on SW/T – in other words, they could largely be addressed via pre-existing methodologies.
My (admittedly cursory) reading of the SW/T literature seems to suggest to me that a major promise of this field is "reasoning" over my data. And I'm waiting for non-trivial assertions made based on linked data, ontologies and so on – that really highlight where my SQL tables will fail. It's not sufficient (to me) to say that what took me 50 lines of Python code takes you 2 lines of SPARQL – I have an investment made in my RDBMS, API's and codebase and yes, it takes a bit more fiddling – but I can get my answer in 5 minutes because it's already been set up.
Some points were made regarding challenges faced by SW/T including complexity of OWL, difficulty in leaning SPARQL, poor performanec queries. Personally, these are not valid challenges and I certainlly do not make the claim that tricky SPARQL queries are preventing me from jumping into SW/T. I'm perfectly willing to wait 5 min for a SPARQL query to run, if the outcome is of sufficient value. The bigger issue for me is the value of the outcomes – maybe it's just too early for truly novel, transformative results to be produced. Or maybe it's simply one tool amongst others that can be used to tackle a certain class of problems.
Overall, it was a worthwhile two days interacting with a group of interesting people. But definitely some fuzziness in terms of what role SW/T can, should or will play in translational life science research.

Try This At Home by Richard Blais
This is a guy who gives new meaning to the idea of playing with your food. Whether it's skewering french toast on cinnamon sticks for brunch-ready finger food or making cheez-whiz foam for a burger, Richard Blais is definitely having fun in the kitchen. His enthusiasm is infectious. I want to cook from this book and I want to do it right now.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Richard Blais
• Who published it: Clarkson Potter
• Number of recipes: 125, with additional recipe variations
• Recipes for right now: Cinnamon-Brioche French Toast "Skewers," Pimento Jack Cheese Sandwiches, Pork-Belly-Stuffed Baked Potatoes, Chicken-Flavored Agar Agar Noodles, Pressure-Cooker Bolognese, Lemon-Curd-and-Black-Pepper Roasted Chicken, Clams Steamed in Ginger Beer with Texas Toast, Lamb Ribs with Chipotle-Malt Reduction, Pecan Treacle Tart
• Other highlights: Richard Blais might be a restaurant-trained chef and well-known for his antics on Top Chef, but this is absolutely a book for home cooks. I love that. Most of the recipes don't involve more than six main steps, and by and large, they use ingredients and techniques that are familiar to us.
Even so, prepared to be pushed out of your comfort zone — something else I like about the book. The flavors are familiar, but Blais combines them in surprising ways, like a coffee-infused butter for pancakes and lemon curd on roast chicken. These are the recipes that really get you into Blais's mindset: keep it fun, keep it playful, and just cook food you love.
While none of the recipes requires foamers or sous-vide machines, those options are there if you want them. Blais includes "2.0" variations with many of the recipes, which take those dishes one step further and help teach you the basics of the molecular gastronomy trade. If you are at all interested in things like sous vide cooking, topping your dishes with savory foams, and making transparent spagetti out of chicken stock, you absolutely need this book.
• Who would enjoy this book? Fans of Richard Blais, curious would-be molecular gastronomites, folks looking for something new and fun to make for dinner.

Corbitt Wall said that this was most likely due to the pressure early in the week coming from the bearish Cattle on Feed report the previous week. By Wednesday, fed cattle started selling at all-time record highs later. The big cattle mostly sold unevenly steady and fat cattle sold at all-time record highs. Live prices were $4 to $6 higher and overall a good market this week. Wall noted that, "we've pretty much forgotten about the bearish Cattle on Feed." Wall also said that old crop stockers and hard, lightweight trading was very active, selling firm to $5 higher. Additionally, receipts were sharply higher than the same week a year ago. However, receipts were 10% lighter than last week, which are expected to continue to get lighter and shows that there are fewer and fewer stockers every week. "Crazy prices again this week," Wall said with all-time record highs. In 2014, the market has seen all-time record highs in all classes of beef cattle and all types of beef products.

It is a rough summer to be an American teenager looking for a job.
The latest numbers show that 24-percent of 16- to 19-year-olds are unemployed. CBS News correspondent Seth Doane reports that their main competition is older workers who in these times are after the same jobs.
Not since world-war-two have as few teenagers been in the labor force. In 2000, teenagers were twice as likely to have jobs as those 65-69 years old. A decade later, there's been a reversal, with more older folks working, and fewer teenagers.
Alex Rodriguez, 17, thrives on competition, but not the type he's seeing in the job market. Nationally, three out of four teens cannot find work.
"I've applied to every store. I've called them. I've had my mom call them. I've had my teachers here helping me," Alex says.
Alex says that unending hunt is difficult.
"You can only apply to so many jobs and especially when you don't get the phone calls back. That gets you upset," Alex says.
His teacher, Mary Ellen Rafferty, says in last year's class of twenty students, 18 had jobs. This year, only four do.
"It's discouraging to want even a minimum wage job and be told those aren't available to you at this point. They can't even aspire to that next level of job because the entry-level jobs are the ones that aren't available," Mary Ellen says.
Rodriguez started in January looking for jobs ranging from a custodian to a clerk at a retail store.
The job market is especially tough for Hispanic teens like Rodriguez. Northeastern's Center for Labor Market Studies found just 21 percent of Hispanic teens were employed last summer, compared with 32 percent of whites the same age.
For Rodriguez, it seems even when he gets good news, it's bittersweet. Accepted to a community college, he doesn't know how he'll pay the $4,000 per year tuition.
"That's my fear for a lot of these students: If they don't get to go to school in the fall because of a lack of summer employment - or a part time job - they won't ever go back to college," Mary Ellen says.
For Rodriguez, that summer job may be the difference between a high school diploma or a college one.

Chef's Skate Plaza Vermont – Blotto Photto
If you've ever been to Vermont and know a thing or two about skateboarding, you're familiar with the scarcity of skate spots. Between the brutal winters and the topography of the city, you're pretty hard-pressed to find a decent plaza to skate, let alone some smooth concrete.
Chef, a lifelong skateboarder and construction extraordinaire, built a little skate plaza just south of Burlington about 7 years ago. This summer a bunch of my buddies back home took a few trips to skate Chef's plaza and Blotto went along to document the sessions.
Blotto also wrote a pretty solid piece over at Manfrotto, so you'll have to head over there to see more photos of this plaza and get the scoop. While you're at it, make sure to have a look at some of Blotto's photos.

CHICAGO — Like any other NHL goaltender, Corey Crawford has found a certain level of comfort working inside hockey's biggest pressure cooker.
But after Sunday's verbal agreement between the players association and owners tentatively ended the 113-day lockout and leaving the league with a shortened regular season, NHL teams – including the Blackhawks – are feeling the crunch not to waste any time.
Teams are expected to begin training camp this weekend once the deal is ratified, officially allowing hockey business to resume. But as several Hawks players worked out privately Monday morning at Johnny's IceHouse on the city's near west side, they had already started to think ahead, understanding with their season basically cut almost in half, time will be of the essence.
And for Crawford, who had a 2.72 goals-against-average in 57 appearances last season, getting back in game shape begins with getting his head right.
"Pressure? You're talking about that already?" Crawford said after Monday morning's skate, drawing a laugh from the horde of reporters and TV cameras surrounding him. "But no – this is fun what we do. I'm looking forward to what's coming up."
What awaits players, though, will be much different than in years past when training camp and the preseason allowed teams to ease into an 82-game regular season. But now, with the season slated to start as early as Jan. 15 following a lockout that lasted nearly four months, players admitted Monday they're moving into uncertain waters.
While players such as Hawks leading scorer Marian Hossa have been working out individually for weeks, returning to full strength as a team will take some time before the abbreviated regular season begins possibly less than a a week after players are reunited officially with their coaches.
The league's Board of Governors is expected to vote on the tentative 10-year deal Wednesday.
And as long as players have been been waiting to return to work, establishing a sense of urgency won't be difficult for the Hawks after being knocked out of the playoffs in the first round by Phoenix.
For Hossa, who said Monday he received a few offers to play in Europe during the lockout after being cleared medically to play in November after suffering a concussion in April, returning to the ice with his teammates can't come fast enough, especially given the relative shortness of the upcoming regular season.
"This is going to be a different season, definitely," Hossa said Monday. "We can't fall asleep in the beginning because there is no 82 games. So every game is going to count and we have to make sure we are ready. It's going to be like a playoff chase now."
Hawks forward Dave Bolland spent the lockout catching up on TV series such as "Homeland," but was among players who returned to the ice Monday. He said even though most players have remained in decent physical shape, it will take time for the Hawks to get into game shape.
While every team in the league will go through the same early-season growing pains, the fact that time is of the essence will make finding a rhythm vital as the chase for the Stanley Cup begins.
"I'm pretty sure now you can't take a night off – you've got to be steady every game," Bolland said. "Every game is going to be a big one, and I think the team that gets [at it] right off the bat and that gets right out fo the gate is going to be the team that is on top."
As anxious as players are to return to business as usual, they know fans may not share the same enthusiasm. Despite the Hawks' loyal fan base, fans grew weary of the sport the longer the lockout lingered on. While players understand their first responsibility is to the franchise and to put a winning product on the ice, they also realize they may have some fans to win over.
Asked Monday if he expected a smattering of boos once the Hawks return to the United Center, Bolland responded immediately, saying, "I hope not."
"I think our fans will stick by us – we're sorry if it took too long and if everything was a waiting game," Bolland said. "But that's the way it goes with union stuff, and I hope our fans are behind us, and I hope we don't get booed."
Hossa expects a mixed reaction, mainly because of how invested fans are in Chicago – a city where loyalists tend to wear their hearts on their sleeve.
"I'm sure lots of fans are glad this is over, lots of fans are frustrated and you cannot blame them," Hossa said. "Obviously, some people are going to be upset but hopefully, we're going to do our best to bring them back in the stands."

In the time before potent combination therapy for HIV (commonly called ART or HAART) became available one of the symptoms associated with HIV infection was persistent fatigue. In some cases, the intensity of fatigue was severe and could be disabling. This symptom was generally not linked to depression or other obvious health problems. Moreover, the reason for this fatigue was not clear but it was linked to declining CD4+ cell counts and worsening health.
It is uncertain how common HIV-related fatigue is in the modern era. Given the tremendous benefit of ART on overall health and survival, some researchers expect that HIV-related fatigue may now be less common. A team of researchers at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the UK have been studying fatigue in people with HIV infection and in HIV-negative people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and comparing them to otherwise-healthy HIV-negative people.
The findings from their investigation with 240 participants suggest that, in the present era, fatigue is relatively common and can be severe in HIV-positive people. It appears likely that previous exposure to certain medicines may have played a role in the fatigue seen in some HIV-positive people. This exposure may have caused lasting dysfunction within part of the nervous system called the autonomic nervous system, which, in turn, led to fatigue.
Researchers recruited three groups of people as follows:
All participants completed questionnaires that had been previously validated for assessing fatigue and dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. Also, data collected from the HIV-positive participants' medical records was used for analysis.
The average profile of the HIV-positive participants was as follows:
Slightly more than half of the HIV-positive participants (51%) reported an excessive degree of fatigue. Moreover, 28% of HIV-positive people reported a severe degree of fatigue.
The intensity of fatigue experienced by HIV-positive participants was significant and at least threefold greater than that reported by healthy HIV-negative people.
HIV-positive people who reported the greatest intensity of fatigue had a level similar to that reported by participants with CFS.
The part of the nervous system that deals with functions that can occur without conscious involvement is called the autonomic nervous system. There are many functions under the influence of the autonomic nervous system, including the following:
One consequence of a dysfunctional autonomic nervous system can be orthostatic hypotension (OH). In OH, the following symptoms can occur:
These symptoms can have other causes, including drug side effects, so having them does not necessarily mean that a person has underlying problems with their autonomic nervous system.
Symptoms suggestive of dysfunction within the autonomic nervous system were common among HIV-positive participants, with 38% reporting them. Furthermore, HIV-positive participants tended to report more severe symptoms compared to healthy HIV-negative participants.
Among HIV-positive participants, fatigue was statistically linked to the following factors -- having symptoms suggestive of autonomic nervous system dysfunction and exposure to so-called "d-drugs" such as the following:

American Jimmy Walker edged one step closer to a third victory on the 2013-14 PGA Tour when he moved into an tie for the lead after the rain-delayed second round of the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am on Friday.FedExCup points leader Walker, who won the season-opening Frys.com Open in October and last month's Sony Open in Hawaii fired a three-under-par 69 at Spyglass Hill, one of three venues being used this week, to sit on nine-under after 36 holes.Walker clearly relishes playing on the picturesque Monterey Peninsula, having recorded top-10 finishes in each of the last three years at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.polyester resin"I do like playing golf out here, playing Pebble beach is pretty amazing," Walker told reporters. "I seem to play well out here. I don't know what it is but I do like playing out here."The 34-year-old collected three birdies in a bogey-free display in mainly overcast, breezy conditions to finish level with fellow American Jordan Spieth, who returned a six-birdie 67 at Monterey Peninsula.Spieth, the 2013 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year who clinched his maiden title at the John Deere Classic in July, birdied his final hole, the par-three ninth, to join Walker at the top."We are just having a lot of fun," Spieth said of the pro-am atmosphere."We are playing a little slower rounds and we are not catching the best weather but everything is laughs and it just a good time."It feels a little more relaxed and when things are going wrong there are some the people there to pick you up."
Just one stroke shy of the lead sits fellow American Hunter Mahan after a four-under 68 at Spyglass Hill moved the 31-year-old five-time Tour winner to eight-under.Mahan carded six birdies and two bogeys to move into the mix.First-round leader Andrew Loupe, a PGA Tour rookie making only his seventh start on the U.S. circuit,Banner Pen was another stroke back at seven under after carding a one-over 73 on the hosting Pebble Beach Golf Links.Richard Lee (72) sits alone in fifth place at six-under while 11 players are tied sixth at five-under.Tournament favourite and world number four Phil Mickelson, bidding for a record-equalling fifth victory at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am,Clawfoot tub accessories was five off the pace in a tie for 17th after signing for a roller-coaster 73.The American left-hander, wearing a glove on each hand to cope with increasingly chilly conditions on the Pebble Beach Golf Links, mixed a double-bogey at the second with four birdies and three bogeys to finish at four under.Loupe's overnight lead of two shots held up when the rain-delayed first round was completed earlier on Friday.The 25-year-old Loupe had set the pace with a sizzling 63 at Monterey Peninsula on Thursday but 40 players were yet to finish when play ended for the day in fading light.Of those, Mickelson was three strokes off the pace with three holes remaining but he was unable to get any closer to Loupe as he finished up with three successive pars on Friday morning to card a 66.

Day 2 Report
Stage 3 of this years race took place on a chilly and damp day, the weather was forecast to brighten up and at least the riders were not subjected to rain of the previous day.
Todays stage was very different to yesterdays despite many of the roads used in stage 2 would once again be called into action but with 3 tough climbs on the route ahead the day often becomes a war of attrition and particularly to those who were prominent in the previous days attacks.
The race initially followed the TT route before turning right at the base of Harptree Hill which features in the final kick to the line and in so many previous cases defines the result of the race.
It wasnt long before attacks looked to get underway as individuals looked to force the pace at the front of the bunch over the rolling roads as the race travelled towards the first climb of the day at Burrington.
The bunch maintained a high pace throughout the 6 miles to the climb to ensure that nothing got away at the bottom of the climb.
As the riders entered the steep walled gorge of the climb the attacks quickly followed with 3 riders launching clear of the bunch on the long but gradual 3 mile climb. At the front Ben Barlow (Spokes) and Ryan Watkins (Wales) continued to chase Thomas Bostock (IoM) who by now had a healthy 10 sec bag as the race left the gorge.
With the bunch now having sight of the riders ahead as the roads straightened out the pace was forced at the front and the breakaway was absorbed back into the bunch leaving Tom to continue to advance and take the first of the days Cranepart.com KoM points.
Behind the bunch could see an opportunity to continue to put others in the bunch under pressure and an attacking group formed in pursuit of the race leader, as the riders turned right onto the finishing straight used in yesterdays stage the junction was made by a group 2 leaving 5 riders at the head of the race ahead of the bunch by around 1:15.
The riders continued over the top of the Mendips continuing to grow the gap to over 1:30 mins from a chasing group of 5 riders including Local rider Morgan Curle (Giant Halo), Alex Haines (Leicestershire RC), and Mason Hollyman (Zappi JRT).
By the time the race retraced the route this time heading to the short but sharp climb of Blagdon the leading group was now 8 riders strong as the junction was made and another former BCDS ride George Bazley joined former team mate Morgan Curle at the head of affiars. At the base of the climb the gap had grown to two and a half minutes from the bunch as it made the hairpin bend to start the climb the action got underway at the front of the bunch as riders including last years Winner Oscar Mingay forced the pace on the steep section and in the space of 2km the leaders were back in sight with the gap down to just 1min.
As is often the case the climb of Blagdon had fragmented the race into essentially 3 large groups as the race continued towards Cheddar. The chase group containing 8 leaders, were chased by 3 with 11 chasing riders including last years Winner were working hard and pulling the gap back to the leaders.
The race officials were passing on the time gaps to all concerned and it continued to fall as riders headed to the start of the decent off of the Mendips, a touch of wheels in the leading group cased a crash for former BCDS rider Morgan and Thomas Bostock forced the pair back into the chasing group who were now just 20 secs off the leaders.
The gap continued to yo-yo as the riders took to the twisty narrow roads of East Harptree, with thoughts in the riders minds turning to the final climb up Harptree hill nobody knew if the leaders would be able to maintain an advantage to the bottom of the hill where the fireworks would be expected.
With 3 riders out front all day starting to tire some big turns were put in notably by George Bazley who drove the bunch to the foot of the climb. The riders remained together, either keeping through tiredness or trying to keep the powder dry ahead of the sprint to the line. The bunch were nowhere to be seen as the gap maintained itself the leaders could concentrate on the sprint at hand which launched with 200ms to go a three up sprint saw Ben Barlow take the win from Alex Haines who was aware that he was now in the lead overall. George Bazley trailed in a few seconds back ahead of George Mills-Keeling (Pro Vision RT).
This was enough to give Alex the win from Ben overall by the 10 secs gained in the Stage 1 Time Trial, George Bazley who had also had a strong Time Trial had done enough to take third place overall a further 2 secs off Ben.
The Team Award went to Zappis JRT just 35 secs ahead of Wales.
A massive thank you to all the race officials and the volunteers (RaceMarkers) who continue to give up so much to support the event and sport.
Also huge thanks to our Sponsors Screentek International, Cranepart.com and KALAS uk for helping to provide the support to make the event what it is.

This post is all about seeking the advice/suggestions of my readers on how to use a one-time donation towards DNA testing. That whole area causes me confusion, no matter how much I read up on it. It seems that there are so many options for how to go about it. Please offer your ideas on how I should spend. (My budget is between 100 and 130 dollars)
The testing will be for my Yarborough DNA. I have no males left in my immediate Yarborough line (sadly), but a male cousin (who made the donation) has offered to do the test. For this family line, by main goal would be to try to determine our African origin, and just to see what genetic links we have to who, in general. The oldest known male in this line is my great-great grandfather, Calvin (b. 1839), who was enslaved. We have no idea who his parents were (yet), so therefore I'm not sure if he was "pure" Black or the product of the slave owner. There is a Yarborough DNA group, but according to my research, Calvin became a Yarborough slave through the marriage of his female owner, so I really have no reason to believe that we have Yarborough blood. Because of that, I'm thinking that it would be a waste of the money to use my one swipe of my cousin's saliva (lol) in that study.
Please readers, if you will, tell me which DNA test would be best for this situation, and why. Thanks so much!
Formerly, "Just Thinking", this blog presents the thoughts and experiences of a family historian working to demystify the past and uncover the stories of an elusive ancestry. NC surnames are YARBOROUGH, GREEN, HAWKINS, DUNSTON, DAVIS, BROWN, ROSS, HILL, BRYANT, and DAVENPORT in Franklin, Warren, Halifax, and Tyrrell Counties. With so much of my family's history shrouded in darkness, is my personal mission to uncover the hidden details of my ancestry and bring them INTO THE LIGHT.

Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Shirley Fan

Well it is good that you have a plan! I like your enthusiasm.I run my fridge at 40F or a little lower when I am fermenting dough in there. Use a lower shelf and put in the back to help maintain temp when door is opened.I use 1.5% salt for my pies, but also sprinkle a bit on the sauce as I am dressing the skin.( if I remember).I have tried 24-72 hrs cold ferment. I like closer to 72 hrs if I can. Takes some planning.Water temp is fine for ADY, stir once and let sit in a little of the water for 10 min or so. You will see it become active.I put my dough balls in the fridge without letting them sit out any time. By letting them sit at room temp for 2 hrs you are encouraging fermentation whereas in the fridge straight away you are retarding fermentaion. Try it both ways and see what you like. The amount of yeast should probably vary depending on your method.Good luck!!! Mark
Thanks. What about the yeast? I know that Luigi uses an ADY. Is there a yeast which yields better taste? What is a known better yeast?
In the yeast arena I have only used ADY & IDY. Currently the IDY is my choice as it seems to be the most popular commercial used on these threads. I have not noticed a difference in taste between the 2. I do like the convenience of being able to add the IDY to the flour and I disolve my sugar( if I use it) and salt in the water prior to adding the flour/yeast combo. Another benefit to the IDY is it's size. When sifting the flour with yeast mixed in it all goes thru the screen the same, the ADY if sifted with the flour seems to stay on top of the screen. Probably no big deal!Mark
You sift?.....
Abserlutely, it's soooo fun Mark
I also use IDY because of convenience. It keeps things more uniform also. I don't notice any difference between using ADY and IDY. I however don't sift.

does not work for me as it is only for recording which is not good for someone like me who have a hearing disability as i need to type in a message to be able to see it on my desktop...
very useful so far.Like the fact that they automatically come in different colours from the previous one..
This is very good application Just need few more adjustment like password protection and the notes should remain on desk top when new programs are opened . Its really good one. Thumbs up....
I do like the software but it has to enter into internet which firewall will block the software.Overall, it is an easy friendly software for desktop note pads. I will recommend people to use if they don\'t mind the firewall blocking pop-up.
Yes quite good in all respect.Ashok Bangad
I just wanted to say thank you for an excellent, free but very useful app. I have been crying out for something like this for a few years now and it serves as a useful to do list that remains permanantly on my desktop. Cliff Fletcher
MMM - I\'m lovin it!I like that it comes up with a different colour each new note. I like that you can decide if always on top or not. I like that you have a vast range of fonts and colours. I like that it automatically date stamps each note. My only bad comment is that the header row height cannot be altered and so if you select a large font for it (like Arial Black) then it just cuts off the bottom part. At the end of the day - its free so what more do you ...
Opinion. Very helful software and customizable.
Seems OK - not like the most recent Microsoft one but seems to be just as good and more comprehensive when you spend time setting it up
This is real great software, exactly what I was looking for...and the best part...it\'s free!!!
Very Useful. Exactly what I needed.
Good Tool. very Useful
Thought it was great. I was experimenting and used up all my \"free\" notes. So... NOT SO GREAT.

WORCESTER, MASS. - Leading, 7-0, at the half the Worcester State College Lancer football team exploded for 26 second half points as they cruised to a, 33-0, victory over the visiting Engineers of MIT in New England Football Conference action at Worcester State's Coughlin Field. The win improves the Lancers to 3-1 on the season, while the Engineers fall to 2-1.
Neither team could muster a consistent offensive attack in the first half of play as MIT could only muster 82 yards of total offense with 76 of those coming on the ground. Worcester State did gain 210 total yards in the first half with 86 of those coming on a touchdown run by Kenyatta Hale with 5 minutes remaining in the half giving the Lancers a 7-0 advantage at the break. Worcester State got rolling in the second half though, as Steve Kasprzak scored late in the third quarter to give Worcester State a 13-0 lead.
The Lancer defense got into the scoring action as defensive end Peter Chuilli forced the Engineers quarterback to fumble on the Lancer 40 yard line and Paul Ivanoski took a fortuitous bounce and rumbled 60 yards to score the Lancers third touchdown. A two-point conversion attempt failed leaving the Lancers with a 19-0 lead. Five minutes into the fourth quarter running back Izzy Ayala reset the Lancer record books by taking off on a 93 yard touchdown run besting the previous record of 91 yards held by Worcester State all-time leading rusher Greg Wood. Sophomore Jonathan Godfroy finished off the scoring on the afternoon slicing into the end zone on a 6-yard touchdown run with four minutes remaining in the game.
Worcester State had two runners over 100 yards on the day as they produced 387 rushing yards as a team for the day falling just short of the school record. Ayala finished the game with 5 carries for 142 yards and Hale went for 118 yards on 11 carries. Quarterback Quandell Ballard was an efficient 9-18 on the day for 77 yards.
MIT was led offensively by quarterback Phil Deutsch who scrambled for 42 rushing yards while completing 4 of 11 passes for 26 yards. The Lancers will return to action next Saturday when then travel to Westfield State for an important NEFC game. MIT will host the Colonels of Curry College next Saturday.

This has been one of the wettest California winters in at least five years.
That is the good news. It will ensure California grape growers good vineyard moisture to start the season, and it should mean adequate irrigation water for the growing season from an above average snow pack.
The bad news is that this could be a year when Botrytis bunch rot once again becomes a more challenging menace, according to Doug Gubler, University of California Extension plant pathologist.
"Botrytis hits California vineyards hard every three years and this could be one of those years with all the moisture we have had," Gubler told a group of growers and pest control advisers recently at a grape pest control strategies workshop sponsored by Bayer CropScience.
Botrytis requires free water and 95 percent humidity to germinate spores, said Gubler. Spores germinate at temperatures ranging from 50 to 85 degrees, with 65 being the optimum temperature. It takes only about two hours for an infection to start at 65 degrees with high humidity and free water, said Gubler.
It is difficult for grape growers to avoid Botrytis since it can be found just about anywhere on the vine and even in dead blossoms and leaves on the vineyard floor. It overwinters in grape mummies left on the vine or left undestroyed in the vineyard floor.
Growers and PCAs can evaluate Botrytis in the fall before pruning. Gubler said tiny black spots in bleached areas on canes are overwintering Botrytis fungus.
Most widespread
"Botrytis is one of the most widespread fungi in the world. It can be found on table tops, on doorways, in parking lots — just about everywhere," said the widely recognized grape disease expert.
"It can also be introduced into a vineyard from nursery stock," he added.
It will invade early, causing early-season shoot blight following spring rains. Botrytis likes succulent tissue versus mature green material. Flowers can be infected during bloom, but the bunch-rot causing Botrytis generally becomes dormant until sugar concentrations increase in berries.
Leaking infected or damaged berries serve to spread the disease. Free water collecting where berries touch also can be the source of a beginning infection. Berries damaged by birds, insects, machinery or any other mechanical means may become infected at any time under the right environmental conditions since all it requires is free water. Wind can also spread spores.
"A leaking berry is a source of free water," said Gubler.
Dry spells should not lull growers into believing they will not have a problem. The fungus stops growing when it is dry. All it takes is rain or irrigation water to trigger the latent bunch rot spores in multiple vineyard locations.
Several years ago Gubler attempted to rid a vineyard of all Botrytis, but what was left was actually a 30 percent infection rate, enough to initiate an outbreak under the right environmental conditions.
Leaf removal and or fungicides can control the diseases.
Removal of basal buds early in the season to expose small bunches to more heat, reduce humidity and increase ventilation. Gubler said allowing wind in the canopy has been identified as the key to preventing Botrytis with leaf removal. On cordon-trained vines, UC recommends removing only leaves from the side of the vine that receives afternoon shade.
Changing the "architecture" of bunches to minimize grape contact can also reduce Botrytis. Some growers, said Gubler, use plant growth regulators to lengthen bunches.
Decreasing fertilizer to reduce the amount of succulent growth also can help prevent Botrytis. "Tissue more hardened off is less susceptible."
Gubler's early work found that strategic leaf removal can give the same control as three fungicide applications.
However, fungicides are generally necessary to control bunch rot, particularly if a grower does not remove leaves. Leaf removal can be expensive if done by field crews. The number of sprays is dependent on the level of leaf removal. In the coastal areas, UC recommends beginning leaf removal at late bloom and continue to berry set. In the warmer Central Valley, UC suggests removing leaves from bloom to berry set or hedge mid-season to open the canopy.
Fungicides are important and can be made between bloom and pea-size berries early and before rainfall, especially at bloom and at verasion. "The most important fungicide application is the pre-close application in almost all cases," said Gubler.
Coverage is very critical with Botrytis control materials. Leaf removal can obviously help with that coverage.
He cited a wide range of fungicides that continue to be effective. However, there is a new one coming into the market later this year from Bayer CropScience, Scala, that has looked "very good" in Gubler's trials over the past two years.
"I first heard about Scala at a conference in New Zealand in 1993. Everybody in the world was impressed with it. It has only taken 12 years to get here," he said.
Scala will add another fungicide to the resistance management program.
"We are excited about it coming into the grape and strawberry market. It is a new product and historically when a new fungicide is introduced it really works well. That was the case when Elevate came into the market," said Gubler, who expects Scala to move to the head of the class when it is introduced.

County Superintendent Reed Shives stated that flood damage in the county caused by the torrential rains that started Sunday and continued through Monday would take three or four days to clean up but could not be compared to the Agnes flood of June 1972. An estimated 5 inches of rain fell in less than 24 hours and roads in every part of the county were flooded. Huge hailstones fell on Monday evening, which marked an end to the two-day downfall.
A Kentucky trailer-truck driver probably owes his life to the fact that several years ago Fulton County residents were successful in their efforts to eliminate the notorious Ladies Turn on Sideling Hill and build a runaway-truck pulloff. Prior to this, fatal accidents on this curve were commonplace. On Saturday, a trailer-truck rig driven by Richard Coffman of Madisonville, Ky., lost its brakes while descending Sideling Hill on Route 30. The driver rode it out to the dirt runoff, but instead of coming to a stop on the incline it drifted backward, struck an embankment and turned over on its left side. The driver was treated for minor injuries.

Wednesday's City Council meeting agenda is stuffed with a number of discussion and consent calendar items, but the underscoring element of the meeting is a night of ceremony.
With the certification of Kern County's votes, Mayor-elect Dan Clark and Councilmembers-elect James Sanders and Lori Acton will be sworn in, replacing Mayor Ron Carter, Councilman Steven Morgan and Vice Mayor Jerry Taylor.
City Clerk Rachel Ford will present the final election results for the current city council before formally swearing in the new council and mayor.
The night calls for the nomination and selection of a new Vice Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem by the city council to serve two-year terms.
The City Council chooses from among its members who will serve in the roles, but neither position holds more weight than any other council member.
In addition to the swearing in the new city officials, presentations will be made for the three outgoing candidates. For Carter and Morgan, it closes the door on 16 years of service on the city council, and for Taylor, four years.
Taylor stated in an email to the city clerk he will not be present at the council meeting, citing work-related reasons. However, he has arranged to call in from Lexington Park, Md.
Other presentations include Ridgecrest Police Chief Ron Strand presenting a merit award to RPD Sgt. Justin Dampier for exceptional service and a presentation on the Kern Council of Government's Energy Plan.
The bulk of the consent calendar items, to be approved in bulk by the city council without discussion, involve a number of resolutions to approve contracts and receive and comment on a non-housing due diligence report prepared by accounting firm Pun and McGeady, LLP.
Three of the contract items involve state-funded Safe Routes to School (Safe Routes) projects the city has received grants for projects to improve safe access to schools in Ridgecrest.
City staff is recommending that a construction contract be awarded to Cen-Cal for $245,637 to move forward on improvements for South Warner Street from South Upjohn Avenue to West Church Avenue, the north side of West Church Avenue from South Sunset Street to South Norma Street and West Church Avenue from South Norma Street to South Warner Street.
Cen-Cal provided the lowest of two bids after they were reviewed by the city's engineering consultant Wildan Engineering.
The other two resolutions include recommending approval of two construction management contracts between the city and Wildan regarding the Safe Routes projects. The Safe Routes Cycle 8 contract will be awarded for $24,530.00 from a project account set up in 2009.
Wildan's Safe Routes Cycle 9 construction management contract would be $24,530.00, available from a project account set up in 2011 by Traffic Impact Fees.
The city council would also be recommended to approve a contract with environmental firm LSA & Associates to conduct a environmental reevaluation prior to the city breaking ground on the West Ridgecrest Boulevard project in the 2013-2014 fiscal year. The contract would cost $117,560, budgeted from the Public Works Budget.
The Ridgecrest Boulevard project is slated to receive a Federal Transportation Improvement Program grant through KernCOG in the 2013-14 fiscal year.
Discussion items include a public hearing and approval regarding the Kern County Development Block Grant program.
The public hearing will solicit public input on city staff's recommendation for a design phase to help move forward on plans to improve "low to moderate income families that live within the areas and also throughout our community that need new pedestrian facilities to meet ADA requirements," according to a staff report.
Interim City Manager Dennis Speer will also present an update on the city's budget and ask for approval to adjustments in the FY 2013 budget for items that were not considered in the original draft.
The city council meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 5 at City Hall.
