Thrombolysis still best treatment for acute stroke
Recent research from George Clinical has analyzed both thrombolysis and neurointervention treatments and determined that thrombolysis is still the best treatment for acute stroke patients.
The recent revolution in neurointerventional clot retrieval has prompted this medical study to evaluate stroke treatments and determine if thrombolysis can be made safer for patients. Since thrombolysis has limitations of bleeding risk, the study aims to analyze what can be done to complement or act as an adjuvant to thrombolysis.
Neurointervention is a treatment for conditions that occur within the vessels of the brain or within the spinal cavity. Utilized in place of more invasive medical procedures which require opening the skull or exposing the spinal column, neurointerventional procedures are minimally invasive, meaning they can be accomplished through tiny incisions no bigger than the size of a nickel.
Neurointervention treatment has been proven to be a highly effective medical treatment in a sub-population of ischemic stroke sufferers in relation to a large occlusion of a proximal intracerebral vessel – the 'reperfusion responder'. Overall, about 80% of all strokes are ischemic (caused by a blockages of a blood vessel in the brain), and those with large clots and residual viable brain tissue, the so called 'reperfusion responders', comprise about 15% of this group. Since only a small population of stroke patients can benefit from neurointervention, thrombolysis remains the primary treatment.

Thrombolytic treatment
Thrombolysis is the breakdown of blood clots formed in blood vessels, using medication. It is used in ST elevation myocardial infarction, stroke, and very large pulmonary embolisms.
Also known as thrombolytic therapy; it aims to dissolve dangerous clots in blood vessels, improve blood flow, and prevent damage to tissues and organs. Thrombolytic treatment, and more specifically recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA), is the only approved treatment for ischemic stroke.
It is estimated that only 4-5% of patients receive this therapy in Australia. In good centers, this figure may reach 20% but still this is nowhere near enough. The brain deteriorates rapidly at the onset of stroke. In order to be eligible for thrombolysis, the patient needs to have sufficient salvageable tissue when they are presented to hospital. This time window is estimated to be only 3 to 4.5 hours in most patients, with patients on the latter end of this scale being eligible if they meet a number of pathophysiological criteria based on their imaging results.
There are also significant limitations to rtPA – it sometimes does not achieve rapid reperfusion and has relatively low recanalization rates. It also increased the risk of major hemorrhage within the brain and early death.
The study calls for pursuing improved healthcare delivery services and finding therapeutic strategies that will increase the number of eligible patients for thrombolysis taking into account the healthcare delivery factors between the onset of a stroke and treatment including detection, ambulance time, triage, etc.
George Clinical is a leading contract research organization (CRO) in Asia which delivers a range of clinical trial services across all trial phases and in a variety of therapeutic specialisations.

While in a minivan taxi to the Malaysian border back in January, I met a fellow traveler from Spain. After sharing my experiences of teaching video production to students in Cambodia, Jose told me about a Spanish organization that collaborates with Burmese refugee schools in northern Thailand. Perhaps they might be interested in having some of their students participate in a similar project, he suggested. Several emails and two months later, I arrived in the border town of Mae Sot, home to an estimated 200,000 refugees, to meet with Mery Viladecas Pascua and Javier Garcia from Colabora Birmania about offering a 'Tell Your Own Story Project" video workshop to students at School 42KM.
The Students:
We arrived at School 42KM in a pickup truck. The hour long ride had given me glimpses of Burma across the river. The Headmaster was very busy with meetings, so I spent the morning meeting the students and teachers. Having just finished a week of exams, they were ready to relax. The school is a very simply constructed long building, with five classrooms separated by bamboo partitions. The students and teachers were all EXTREMELY welcoming.
During a meeting with the Headmaster, Assistant Headmaster, teacher/translator Su San, Mery and Javier, it was decided that the fourth and fifth grade students will begin a five day workshop on Monday. Su San and I will teach together which makes me extremely happy. The students have NEVER touched a computer. I'm admittedly nervous about how I will manage to teach the skills in such a short time, but I'm confident in these students.
After the meeting, I showed some of the students two videos by the Cambodian students. Watching them see that Cambodians live similarly to them was incredibly moving:
I asked them if they thought they could make a video like this next week. They told me, "No."
We'll see.
UPDATE (2 April): The students completed both videos in only 5 days!

CBC NEWS: Researchers finding excreted drugs in drinking water
If we're taking it, we're also drinking it: painkillers, blood thinners, hormones, chemotherapy agents, even cocaine and amphetamines.
Whatever goes into us, also comes out of us, through our own biological effluent, every time we flush the toilet. The excreted drugs pass right through most sewage treatment processes and end up in rivers and lakes, and then in our drinking water.

For over 20 years, United World Telecom has been providing high quality local and international toll free numbers to businesses and individuals. United World Telecom serves over 150 countries, and our numbers are instantly activated with no customer commitment. Our local and international toll free numbers have a full portfolio of free features as well as valuable optional features.
Advantages of International Toll Free Numbers
Local and international toll free numbers permit your clients, customers, families, and friends around the globe to reach you without paying charges no matter where the call terminates. Furthermore, these numbers give your business a virtual presence in other localities around the world. In addition, having local and international numbers is more cost-effective than satellite offices, and the numbers are portable if you choose to change service providers. An online control panel allows subscribers to perform account management functions remotely.
International Toll Free Numbers on Six Continents
United World Telecom provides international toll free numbers to countries on the continents of Africa, Asia, Australia-Oceania, Europe, North America, and South America. The types of numbers and their prices and restrictions differ between countries. However, the United World Telecom website makes it easy to price the available options. The following includes information on International toll free numbers available throughout the world.
Africa is the second-largest and second most populous continent in the world. Its area is 30.3 million km2 (11.7 million sq mi), and as of 2016, its population was 1.2 billion people. There are 58 countries in Africa. The most populous country is Nigeria with a 2017 population of 190,632,261 people, 154,513 landlines, 154,342,168 cell phones, and 47,759,904 internet users. The smallest African country is Saint Helena, Ascension, and Tristan da Cunha, which is a British Overseas Territory situated in the South Atlantic Ocean, with a population of only 4,000 residents combined across these islands. Africa has fewer landlines than mobile phones and internet users.
Therefore, when subscribing to virtual phone numbers, consider those numbers that connect to mobile phones or VoIP networks.
Asia is the largest and most populous continent in the world. Its area is 44.6 km2 (17.2 million sq mi). Asia's 4.5 billion residents constitute 60% of the world's population, and there are 51 countries in Asia. The largest country is China with a population of 1,379,302,771 people, 206,624,000 landlines, 1,364,934,000 mobile cellular phones, and 730,723,960 internet users.The least populous country in Asia is the Maldives with 345,000 residents. As with Africa, mobile phones and internet users far exceed the number of landline subscriptions. Therefore, subscribers to international toll free numbers may want to consider mobile accessible numbers.
The Australian continent includes the countries of Australia, Tasmania, New Guinea, New Britain, Misool, and Waigeo. New Zealand is part of the submerged continent of Zealandia, and Oceania is a term for the geographic region containing the Australian continent and New Zealand.
United World Telecom sells international toll free numbers in both Australia and New Zealand. In July 2017, Australia had a population of 23,232,413 residents with 8,180,000 landline subscriptions, 26,550,000 mobile cellular phones, and 20,288,409 internet users. New Zealand's population was 4,510,327 with 1,820,000 landline subscriptions, 5,800,000 mobile cellular phones, and 3,958,642 internet users.
The most populous European countries have a relatively high ratio of landlines to mobile phones and internet users. Therefore, businesses wishing to get international toll free numbers in these countries may want to consider this when choosing phone numbers.
There are 50 countries in Europe, seven of which are transcontinental countries. The least populous country in Europe is Vatican City with a population of 900 persons. In July 2017, Russia was the most populous country with 142,257,519 persons, 32,276,615 landline subscriptions, 231,393,994 mobile cellular phones, and 108,772,470 internet users.
North America
North America consists of 23 sovereign states, 11 dependent territories, and "14 other areas." The ten largest sovereign states in North America (listed by size) are the United States, Mexico, Canada, Guatemala, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua. The other sovereign states are Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Costa Rica, Dominica, Grenada, Jamaica, Panama, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Trinidad and Tobago. The dependent territories include Anguilla, Bajo Nuevo Bank, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Montserrat, Navassa Island, Puerto Rico, Serranilla Bank, Turks and Caicos Islands, and United States Virgin Islands. Other areas include Aruba, Bonaire, Clipperton Island, Curaçao, Greenland, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saba, Saint Barthélemy, Saint-Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, San Andrés and Providencia, Sint Eustatius, and Sint Maarten.
The largest market for international toll free numbers in North America is the United States as its July 2017 population totaled 326,625,791 residents with 121,530,000 landline subscriptions, 416,684,000 mobile cellular phones, and 246,809,221 internet users.
South America
There are 12 countries in South America and three territories. The three South American territories are French Guiana (the location of the infamous Devil's Island), Falkland Islands (a United Kingdom territory that is also claimed by Argentina), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands (United Kingdom). The largest market for international toll free numbers is Brazil with a July 2017 population of 207,353,391 people, 41,846,846 landline subscriptions, 244,066,759 mobile cellular phones, and 122,841,218 internet users.

Manually entering the DNS entries
To solve the problem, I had to manually enter our DNS server into the TCP/IP settings. Nevertheless, it seems to me that the Win2k machines are getting all the server settings from our DHCP servers properly (confirmed with ipconfig /all). This sounds like a DNS server problem but our DNS servers seem to be working just fine since this problem doesn't seem to affect our NT4 users. How do I fix it so I do not have to manually enter the DNS entries on all Win2k boxes?
Check out KnowledgeBase article Q268674. It describes how the DHCP client service must be running to resolve DNS names. Could it be that the DHCP service on these clients somehow is stopping or being stopped? (Perhaps a logon script error.)
Are you getting any Event Log entries in the clients?
Does this happen immediately after restart or does it start happening later?
Does it affect all Windows 2000 clients or just a few?
Do you lose DNS resolution in your private network as well as the Internet?Are you pointing the clients at the same DNS server when you statically map then as they get in the DHCP configuration packet?

Mitsubishi Triton new upgraded model set to hit Australia in January 2019.
The new frontal design features a narrow upper grille with two thick horizontal bars, a large Mitsubishi three-diamond emblem, a large lower grille opening and a stylised 'skid plate' on the lower section of the bumper. The Triton's more muscular 'dynamic shield' will continue with single-cab, extended-cab and double-cab body styles.
On upper-spec models there are new angular LED daytime running lights and LED headlights with indicators and fog lights grouped vertically on the outer edges of the bumper. New, taller tail-lights are a simpler, cleaner design and the new rear bumper is less bulky than the current example. While the side mirrors are also new, the doors and turret are carryover.
Top-spec models now have new 18-inch alloy wheel in place of 17-inch items.
The interior has been upgraded with more soft-touch materials along with padded sides to the centre console and passenger side dashboard, plus monotone colours in place of the two-tone scheme used before. Door trims comprise a thicker-gauge laminate and Mitsubishi has gone to town with the sewing machine: there's a new stitched centre armrest cover, centre console side covers and double stitching on the parking brake lever and boot.
Air-vents and a USB port have been added to the rear seat area.
The 4N15 2.4-litre turbo-diesel continues, with outputs remaining at 133kW of power at 3500rpm and 430Nm of torque at 2500rpm.
While the Triton's six-speed manual transmission continues as before, the MQ's five-speed automatic has been replaced with a new six-speed unit. Mitsubishi's 4WD systems (part-time Easy Select for lower-spec models and part/full-time Super Select II for premium models) continue with a new standard feature for both systems: driver-selectable 4WD modes. The four-mode system (Gravel, Mud/snow, Sand and, in low-range, Rock), as with other utes with 4WD modes, controls engine output and automatic transmission and braking performance to regulate wheel slip and maximise off-road performance.
Also new in Triton's off-road armoury is hill descent control.

Last night marked a significant milestone more so for Angie and I then it was for Anna, but a milestone in Anna's life nonetheless. She slept through the entire night...in her own crib!
Anna has been sleeping in our bed pretty much every night since she was born and sleeping well at that. But, last night Angie decided it would be a good idea to see how Anna would fair in her own bed for a change.
So, we gave her a tubby (pictured above), relaxed on the couch with her for a while and then put her to bed. She slept for about seven hours in her crib. She woke up a time or two, but put herself back to sleep and never once cried.
Initially I didn't want to put her to sleep in her own crib (just yet), but a night of peaceful sleep was great...and once again Mom proved to know best :)
Anna has been sleeping regularly through the night (with an occasional feeding around 3 a.m.), but she kicks, flails and squirms all over the bed, which is enough to wake me up every hour. So, while I like having Anna in bed with us, getting a good night's sleep was much appreciated.
My apologies for a lack of postings the last week or so. Tomorrow marks the fourth PackCast in eight days, so Pack Network has been hectic. On Saturday we were at Hartford, then we were at Vermont on Sunday and Wednesday and we leave for Binghamton tonight. Hopefully next week I will be able to get back into a good bloggin' rhythm.

On Wednesday October 17th 2018, Art-Trope was invited to the 45th edition of the FIAC at the Grand Palais in Paris which lasted until October 21st 2018. After offering you a an exclusive preview, we give you more details about this impressive edition.
The 2018 FIAC: an ambitious edition
From October 18th to October 21st 2018, the Grand Palais hosts the 45th edition of the FIAC, the Contemporary Art international Art fair which became a reference for Collectors and Art professionals in Paris. This year, the Art fair selected 195 galleries from 27 different countries including three new guests: Greece, Peru and Ireland. Among the exhibitors, 30% were French which reflects the international DNA of the Art fair. We also note the return of significant galleries such as Hauser & Wirth and The Breeder which shows the growing international influence of the Art fair. Also, 18 new galleries were present for the first time including 7 in the Lafayette Sector. The 2018 edition also spread its wings beyond the Grand Palais. Indeed, the FIAC Projects section presents 40 sculptures at the Petit Palais while 20 works are showed at the Jardin des Tuileries and that the Place Vendôme hosts a carte blanche by Elmgreen & Dragset. Of course, the FIAC also organized a series of conferences and conversations about the Fine Arts market.
Color is the queen of the 45th FIAC
Going down the aisles of the 2018 edition of the Parisian Art fair, we couldn't help notice the essential role of colors on all the exhibited mediums. The American gallery Regen Projects based in Los Angeles is one good example. The work of Artist Alex Hubbard displays a singular liquidity in the way he treats colors. The observer is invited to dive in a canvas that is on the border of painting, ink work and sculpture. On the other hand, the London-based gallery Skarstedt presents, among its Artists, a huge painting by Georg Baselitz measuring 1182/8 inches by 981/2 inches. Like a mastered explosion of colors, the Artist simply named his Artwork "Orangenesser" which means "Remix". This very personal interpretation of the interactions between colors questions our relation to the notion of mixing. On the sculptures side, the Perrotin gallery welcomes the visitors at the entrance of the Grand Palais with a giant mobile of Artist Xavier Veilhan. Fantasized characters coming out of a dream are sitting next to a mobile that looks like a solar system.
The Lafayette Sector: the emerging galleries selection by the FIAC
For its section dedicated to emerging galleries, the FIAC received close to 150 applications. Only 10 were selected for this edition. Created in 2009 in partnership with the Galeries Lafayette, the Lafayette Sector's goal is to encourage the young galleries by offering a financial support in order to facilitate their participation to the FIAC. Such an initiative reminds us of the statement of the great Art dealer David Zwirner when he suggested experienced galleries should financially support the participation of more modest galleries. Art-Trope talked about it in an article dedicated to the discussion between Larry Gagosian and Edward Dolman about the current situation of the Fine Arts market. As a result, the 10 selected galleries by the FIAC to be part of the Lafayette Sector benefited from a financial support up to 50% of the participation fees of their 25 meters square booth. Coming from 5 countries including France, the United Kingdom, Greece, the United States and Switzerland, galleries presented young emerging Artists offering them an important visibility. The 2018 edition of the FIAC is a true success for an Art fair that keeps growing in terms of prestige.

Whether or not you interact with them, these ads are dispersed throughout the rest of the non-paid content on your social media newsfeed. Ads on Facebook and Twitter have been around for awhile, and recently Pinterest and Instagram have started experimenting with paid advertising. Although your business is already active online, investing in these advertising opportunities could help you stand out from the rest.
The first thing to keep in mind is your audience. Some social media platforms let you target a specific group of people, while others have a broader range. Determining your objectives ahead of time is key to having a successful social media campaign. A few examples of objectives include: sales, brand recognition, and brand reputation. Once you have determined your audience and your objectives, the next step is deciding which social media platform to use.
Recently, Facebook made changes to its advertising program. Business owners can now choose how they would like their potential buyer to interact with their ad. This can range from app engagement, page "Likes," post-page engagement, app installs, clicks to a website, or in-store offers. After they choose, Facebook then suggests different ad types such as domain ads, offer ads, promoted posts, or sponsored stories. Business owners can even decide where their ad is displayed; whether it be on the desktop, the mobile news feed, or the right sidebar. Facebook's new Custom Audience feature allows you to upload your email contact list to your dashboard and target your paid Facebook advertisements to your current and prospective customers!
Last month, Pinterest's first ads went live. Businesses can pay for their advertisement or "promoted pin" to appear at the top of search results and category feeds. For example, if someone searches for "makeup," a beauty supply store's promoted pin of mascara might be at the top of the results. The promoted pins are similar to Instagram's sponsored posts. They are unobtrusive and blend in quite well with the other non-paid posts on the page.
Twitter offers promoted trends, accounts, and tweets. Promoted trends appear in search results and in the user's timeline. Promoted accounts and tweets show up in search results and in the left sidebar of Twitter. Targeting can be done through keywords. If you decide to advertise through Twitter, you will only be charged when people follow your promoted account or reply, retweet, or favorite, or click on your promoted tweet.
After you have created a few advertisements, make sure to check the performance of your ads. Most social media platforms offer some form of analytics to allow you to track your progress. Starting small allows you to compare and contrast what works and what does not. Measure your results and make changes to your campaign. Find out what works best for your company, audience, and objectives. With 71% of U.S. adults being on a social network, the audience is too large to not take advantage of social media advertising!
Let's say you just finished writing a new blog for your website and would like to add some images to further your point and add interest. Ideally, you would have a professional photographer capture and provide perfect, unique photography for you. However, sometimes this is not always possible or practical. So how do you know when to go with original photography or use stock photography? There are many factors in deciding whether to hire a professional photographer or to search online for photography to purchase.
First, let's talk about the image itself. If the required photograph is of your company's unique product, then using stock photography would not be a good choice. By using original photography of your product, you are in complete control of how your brand and product are represented. This control allows you to portray your brand accurately. On the other hand, if you are in search of an image of a dog, you could easily turn to finding a stock photograph to fulfill your needs.
Another factor in deciding whether to go with original or stock photography is time. With tight time frames, going with a professional photographer is sometimes just not possible. Hiring the photographer, scheduling a photoshoot, paying for a stylist and a professional retoucher, can take quite a bit of time. Similarly, searching through thousands of stock photographs to find the perfect image can take hours. And oftentimes, after you find a suitable image, it needs to be tweaked to better represent your blog, advertisement, or website. And we all know that the longer a project takes, the more money is spent.
Which brings us to our last factor, which of course is budget. While it might seem less expensive to find and buy an image online, dealing with rights-managed or royalty-free photography can get quite pricey. And costs differ between using the image commercially versus personally. When using original photography, the price can vary greatly, depending on the amount of labor needed.
When confronted with the decision of whether to use original or stock photography, keeping in mind these factors will lead you in the correct direction:
- do you need to establish a personal connection?
- what is your project's timeline?
- what is your budget?
If you choose to use original photography, remember that wisnet.com offers professional photography services. If your team needs new headshots or you are looking to update images on your website, contact us today!

Haryana Roadways staff strike continues
The strike by Haryana Roadways employees continued Sunday for the second day after talks between the employees' leaders and the state transport minister failed to resolve an issues.chandigarh Updated: Sep 08, 2014 13:15 IST
The strike by Haryana Roadways employees continued Sunday for the second day after talks between the employees' leaders and the state transport minister failed to resolve an issues.
Thousands of commuters continued to suffer across Haryana as the roadways staff continued their strike. People had to pay more to taxis and private bus operators who made the most of the strike.
Hundreds of Haryana Roadways buses did not come out of their stands and depots since Saturday.
Talks between Transport Minister Aftab Ahmed and leaders of the Haryana Roadways employees coordination committee could not reach a conclusion.
The committee has sought an immediate withdrawal of a move by the Haryana government to grant route permits to private bus operators. It has also demanded that the services of all the employees should be regularised.
The strike started from Kaithal town, 135 km from here, Saturday when a private bus tried to enter a bus stand there. It was not allowed to enter by Haryana Roadways staff.
The strike soon spread to other places.
"We were always opposed to the 3,519 route permits given to private operators by the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government. Despite assurances, the Hooda government has initiated the move to grant the permits," said one of the striking leaders.
The Haryana Roadways has a fleet of over 3,900 buses which ferry nearly one million passengers daily. There are nearly 19,000 roadways staff in the state.
The roadways staff went for a four-day strike January 2014. They went on strike last year also.
Haryana goes for assembly polls next month and the code of conduct is likely to be announced by the Election Commission this week. The roadways employees are worried that the state government will not be able to accept their demands once the election code is announced.

Netanyahu on his way to fourth mandate #israel #isrealielections #likoud #netanyahu
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is on his way to a fourth mandate after elections for the 20th Knesset, the 120-member Israeli parliament, took a dramatic turn in the early morning hours on Wednesday.
With almost all the ballots counted for Israel's general election held Monday, Netanyahu's Likud scored a decisive victory over the rival Zionist Union party
99% of votes have been counted from a total of 4,223,057 and Likud is in first place with 23.29 percent. Zionist Union is trailing far behind in second place with 18.76 percent, almost 5 percentage points behind Likud.
According to the official up-to-the-minute tally, Likud wins 30 seats while Zionist Union comes in second at 24 seats. A far cry from the virtual dead heat that television exit polls had reported Tuesday evening.
The parties that follow are Joint Arab List (14), Yesh Atid (11), Kulanu (10, Bayit Yehudi (8), Shas (7), United Torah Judaism (6), Yisrael Beitenu (6) and Meretz (4).
Eli Yishai's Yahad party does not pass the electoral threshold (3.25 %).
Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement early Wednesday morning inviting potential coalition partners to immediately enter talks for the swift formation of what is expected to be a nationalist government.
"The reality isn't waiting on us," Netanyahu said just hours after it became clear that his Likud party had scored a decisive victory over Zionist Union in Tuesday's poll. "Reality isn't taking a break. The citizens of Israel expect us to quickly put together a leadership that will work for the sake of the country's security, economy, and society as we promised to do, and that is what I will do."
The premier said that he had already spoken with the heads of parties that he plans to invite into his coalition, including Bayit Yehudi chief Naftali Bennett, Kulanu's Moshe Kahlon, Yisrael Beitenu head Avigdor Liberman, Shas leader Aryeh Deri, and United Torah Judaism representatives Yaakov Litzman and Moshe Gafni.
"The Prime Minister plans to immediately begin forming a government in order to complete the task within two to three weeks," he said.
"I'm proud of the Israeli people because at the moment of truth they knew to differentiate between challenge and nonsense and they took up the challenge," he said.
Netanyahu said that his government will work to improve on "the most important things for all of us, which genuine security and socioeconomic welfare."

I've had glasses or contacts since I was 10. I cannot remember a time when the world hasn't been blurry without the use of a seeing aid.
About a month ago, I went for a LASIK consultation and the doctor, who looked suspiciously like Marvel's Dr. Strange, declared that my eyes were perfectly healthy and great candidates for LASIK. (Great job, eyes!) The consultation itself was free and took about two hours. They put me through every eye test known to man before I met with the doctor himself, who explained the procedure and answered any questions I had. I also had to make sure that I didn't wear my contacts for a week before the procedure because apparently contacts can change the shape of your eyes and invalidate the tests.
After all the tests, the doctor said my left eye would be easy peasy (not his words; Dr. Strange doesn't say "easy peasy"). The right eye, at a -6, would be slightly trickier but certainly not outside his ability to fix, nor even the worst he'd seen.
He did say that sometimes an eye doesn't heal exactly the way they want, and they end up having to back in to do a follow-up surgery. Those follow-ups are free for the first year, and then at a deep discount thereafter. The doctor said that if either of my eyes needed a follow-up, he bet it would be my right eye.
Of course, LASIK isn't be cheap (they won't even give you the price until after you've had the consultation), but I knew that going in and the office had a payment plan system so I wasn't going to have to hand over a few thousand dollars out-of-pocket.
My "prep" for the procedure actually begin two weeks before the surgery. I had to forgo contacts that entire time and stop wearing eye make-up three to four days beforehand. The office called me twice to make sure that I still wanted to go through with it...I guess a lot of people back out. I also had to secure a driver (my husband) who would stay at the office during the entire procedure and then drive me home. Trust me, there's no way that you can drive yourself home afterward.
The office where I went traditionally gives folks a prescription for Valium, which I had to turn down because I react oddly to medications meant to calm me down, and promptly freak out instead. Therefore, I went into the appointment stone-cold sober and aware of everything. If you're the Valium type, they have you take it when you first arrive, and then again about half an hour before the procedure.
My husband and I arrived at 1:30pm for my 1:55pm appointment. Per their instructions, I brought a zip-up sweatshirt for the freezing cold operating room. The sweatshirt has to zip-up so that you can easily remove it afterward without accidentally hitting your eyes. I chose one without a hood because I figured it would be more comfortable for lying on my back (I was right). I wore jeans and a button-up shirt, but I should have just worn yoga pants and a t-shirt so I didn't have to change before going to bed.
The office was running behind (or maybe they make everyone come an hour early so the Valium has time to kick in?), so I didn't actually get called back until about 3pm. My husband and I headed to the small examination room where the nurse went over the post-operative care. For a week following the procedure, I had to keep my eyes as clean as possible, which means no gardening, no chlorine, no dusting, no exercising that could cause sweat. So far, this was sounding great.
For a month, she said to also avoid natural waters, like lakes or the ocean. If you're the beach type, you might not want to get LASIK in the summer. I'm not, so I just shrugged.
She also said no eye make-up for at least a week after. Blergh. I'm 38 and my eye make-up helps me look awake at work. But whatever. I could deal. She said I could wear lotions or foundations but have to be really careful when applying around my eyes.
She went over three different types of drops I would have to take. There's an antibiotic, a steroid, and an over-the-counter moisturizing drop (she said I could use any kind as long as it's preservative-free). I have to use them every 2-4 hours for the first two weeks and she gave me a copy of the schedule so I could check off when I used each. My husband had to listen to the schedule, too; I assume most people are deep into their Valium by that point and need someone else listening.
About half an hour later, they called me into the surgery room itself. They weren't kidding; it was cold. There were two or three nurses and the doctor in there with me. They had me lie down on something similar to a dentist's chair and told me to close my eyes while they did some initial measurements and lined up the machines with my eyes. The doctor explained that while I needed to stay still, I shouldn't worry too much; the machines are made so that they follow my retina as it moves and simply shut down if they sense a big movement (like if I moved my head). In other words, if I suddenly sneezed, I wasn't going to lose an entire eye. This comforted me. Also, the doctor still had his Dr. Strange goatee, and I figured if anyone could be trusted to laser my eyes safely, it was Dr. Strange.
After the initial measurements, they taped a giant plastic cover over my right eye so they could focus on my left eye first. They added tons of numbing drops, then did the first part of the procedure. The drops had made everything blurry and because of the machine they were using, I couldn't actually see much. I kept my right eye closed. This part of the procedure involved a ton of pressure and I'm not going to lie; it hurt. I squirmed a bit and the doctor reminded me that it would be over very soon so I just kept breathing deeply. All in all, it probably took about 30 seconds.
Then, I got a rest for about a minute while he transferred the plastic cover to my left eye and prepped my right eye. Same procedure, same horrible pressure, again over relatively quickly.
Now it was time for the actual lasers. They went back to my left eye and affixed a machine to it and told me to look at a blinking light in the machine. I did and he turned on the lasers and then suddenly I could smell something like a soldering iron. This part felt kind of strange, kind of like my eye was being tickled, but didn't really hurt, so again I focused on my breathing and the blinking orange light. It again took a minute or less. Then, the doctor repeated the same process on the right eye...and it was all over.
The actual procedure took less than 10 minutes.
They took me back to the first small room and gave me big, dark glasses to wear outside and asked if I had any final questions. My eyes felt gritty but I could actually see in the hallway! Granted, things were blurry...but not nearly as blurry as my vision 10 minutes earlier. The lady at the front desk advised me to keep my eyes closed during the drive home.
One thing that no one told me about and I wasn't expecting: it was hard to swallow afterward. I don't know if it was from all the pressure causing junk in my sinuses to move around or somehow the numbing drops went down into my throat. It wore off within about 15 minutes after leaving, though.
We live about 45 minutes from the eye center and we had to pick up the kids on the way home. For the first 10 minutes of the drive, I was laughing and joking. I felt hardly any pain and didn't understand why the doctor kept saying I should try to sleep for the first four hours after the procedure. Then the numbing drops wore off and I was like, "OH." The hour plus that it took us to get home was...not pleasant.
I made my husband stop for Taco Bell on the way home, because it was about 5pm by this time and I hadn't eaten since noon, which was giving me a headache and nausea in addition to feeling like someone had just..well, shot lasers into my eyes. I then proceeded to blindly eat the tacos in his exceptionally clean car, and to his credit, he didn't even try to argue. It's possible he was staring at me in horror the whole time but whatever. I kept my eyes closed like I was told.
When we got home, I immediately went upstairs. It hurt to open my eyes. It hurt to keep them closed, too, but not as badly. It was only 5pm, but I had my husband get me some ibuprofen, a Unisom, and some melatonin (I checked with the doctor, and he said it was fine). My husband administered my eye drops (there's no way I could have put them in myself; he had to hold my eyes open). I put on my super sweet sleeping goggles (which I have to wear for the first week whenever I sleep so I don't accidentally rub my eyes), and then laid there. Even with all the Unisom and melatonin, I didn't fall asleep for awhile because of the pain.
On the pain scale, I can safely say that childbirth is worse. Gallstones and kidney stones also score higher. Still, this wasn't pleasant. I would say it's probably closest to the time I burned my hand on the stove and went to sleep with it throbbing.
At some point, I did pass out. My husband came up about 8pm to give me more eye drops and brought me a snack. My eyes still didn't feel great and my vision was still blurry, but I was no longer in intense pain. I passed back out.
I groggily woke up several times throughout the night. Sleeping goggles, as it turns out, are exactly as comfortable as they sound.
This morning I woke up and immediately rolled over to my bedside stand to grab my glasses...which of course weren't there. Then I blinked and realized...hey, I didn't actually need them anyway! My eyes still felt dry and gritty, but I could open them. I put the refreshing drops in right away and they were instantly soothed.
I went in to wake up my two year old daughter, whose first words to me were, "Mommy, get glasses." I explained to her that I didn't need them anymore. She shook her head and ran into my bedroom, then ran back confused. "Can't find glasses!" she told me in exasperation. I explained again that doctors had fixed my eyes and I didn't need glasses. "Need glasses," she insisted. Truly, she's only seen me without them a handful of times, so I can imagine it's a shock to her.
Today, the day after surgery, my eyesight is at least as good as it was with my contacts or glasses. Supposedly, it's going to continue to improve. My eyes still feel sore, dry, and itchy, but just like I've been wearing my contacts all day. I'm apparently able to work on a computer well enough to write this blog and my vision seems to be improving every hour. I can definitely tell when it's time for my eyedrops, though. I suppose I could have gone back to work today, but I'm glad I took the day off so I can go lie down with my eyes closed whenever my eyes start to feel tired.
So, one day in, I'm glad I did LASIK. Like most people, I had some serious apprehensions, but everything went as well as it could have. I'm looking forward to all the things I'll be able to do without having to worry about glasses or contacts getting in the way.

I am obviously stoked that I purchased these skis. They have honestly brought me to new levels in skiing. I have gotten way more comfortable riding switch thanks to these skis for one. The way these skis pop have broughten me to new heights. I enjoy supporting smaller companies too. These skis look cool with stickers too which is always a plus, especially die cut ones. I am definately stoked on 4frnts skis. The VCT's look cool as hell, gonna save up to get em. :)
Oh yea, that picture of me on the STL's is in the Hellroaring Backcountry at Big Mountain in Montana at a cool drop down jump. I call it Miguels Drop and so do some others. Its a sick jump. :)
Oh yea, and I rated it a 9 cause every noob always rates everything 10.
Yes. I have used this ski for 2 full seasons so far and am entering my third season on them. I keep pretty good care of my skis. I hit rails on them alot when I like the setup of the rail. I try not to utterly bash them on stupid rails. The edges are all perfect and have no cracks after two seasons of rails, so that means alot to me. I did not have to send them back for a stupid warranty either which is nice, because it would be lame for that to happen in the middle of the season. So this ski has kept me progressing for the last two seasons without any season ending injuries.
This ski is crazy lightweight. Being on the chairlift alot, I could hardly even notice the weight of the skis on my feet. They seem to have excellent pop. I swear that I could do that shit that Josh Bibby does in skimatic with the nose butter cork spins with these skis if i can get the balls to do it. The ski is very responsive and snappy off of the lip. With the longer ski, I can preload my tails alot to ollie off of bumps and whatnot. The tails do not wash out either which is great for landing jumps or gnarly near wrecks. I truly believe this ski has saved my ass so many times from wrecking. I keep my edges fairly sharp cause in MOntana, I dont like to be caught on steep ass ice with no edges. The edges seem rediculously strong too which is a gread benefit.
This ski also made me pick up switch skiing so much better. The shape of it has just worked excellent on showing me better ways to ski both ways. I definately feel this ski has made me a way better skier.
I believe so. I have had a lot of fun on these skis for two seasons of riding and more to come. I had an epic powder week in Utah a couple winters ago and these are the only skis I had with me and they worked fine. I got to ride Park City's park once which was cool too. This ski is a lot of fun on big groomed rollers and what not to pop off of and that kind of thang, skateboard style.
Apparently, the STL was built with parkriding/ jibbing in mind. That holds true from my experience. I really enjoy the flex on this ski. The skis seem very stable, even when flexed to the max. I have used these skis in powder (i forgot my pow skis) and although it took some getting used to, I made it down safely everytime. They are not noodles. I have the 183's and enjoy having the longer ski as well in all situations. I skied down some narrow chutes with them and you need to get used to the flex, but you can literally butter down chutes sideslipping without catching edges if you are careful. This ski has good pop and I swear I was boosting way higher than normally when on this ski compared to previous. They feel very solid to land on too.
Since I paid quite a bit of money for these, I kept real good care of them, meaning waxing alot, not leaving outside in cold. I hit quite a few rails too and have learned proper ways to bail off if it doesnt look good so I can save the life of my skis which helps alot. But as I have said before, there are no cracks in the edges. The topsheet chips a little bit, but if you are sorta careful about it and dont always bash your skis into each other, its not that bad. The sidewalls on this ski are one thing that make it really durable. I haven't really seen it in to many other skis, but I havent seen all the new shit lately. It never chips out though and I kinda like how it is slightly obtrusive to the base and topsheet. The stuff doesnt get weak when it gets cold either. I would honestly be surprised if this ski doesnt last like another year or two.

Many times, rainfall in Florida leaves drivers struggling to see the lines in the road, other vehicles, and traffic signals. Driving in inclement weather poses safety risks for even the most experienced drivers. It takes only a few seconds for something to go wrong, and in rainy weather, the chances of an Orlando auto accident occurring increase.
If you find yourself driving in poor weather conditions, such as a rainstorm, here are a few tips to help you stay safe:
- Turn on your headlights –Just as you may have a hard time seeing other vehicles around you, other drivers have a hard time seeing you. When you turn on your headlights, you make it easier for others on the road to take notice of where you are so that you can all stay a safe distance from each other.
- Head toward the middle lanes –The water tends to accumulate on the sides of the road first. When you drive through water, your brakes become soaked and may make it even more difficult for you to stop quickly. Driving in the middle lanes and avoiding deep puddles can help your car stay safer.
- Stay back from other trucks, buses and cars –All vehicles send off some back spray of water, but trucks and buses are the worst. With this constant back spray hitting your windshield, seeing when the vehicle in front of you stops becomes more difficult. Stay a safe distance behind the trucks and buses in front of you so that you do not accidentally rear-end them when they stop.
Knowledge Equals Power in Orlando Auto Accident Cases
If you find yourself driving in bad weather, these tips can help keep you safer. Sometimes, even when you do take precautions, accidents still happen. If you have been involved in an Orlando auto accident, contact an experienced attorney to help. Our compassionate Orlando personal injury law firm, Auto Justice Attorney, understands the difficulty you face and can help make your life less stressful. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation to discuss your case: 407-422-4529.

Where are the Mirai Hydrogen Fuel Stations Located?
The 2017 Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel stations are located throughout the greater Los Angeles region, including in Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Manhattan Beach — among other places. Additional locations will be opening over the course of the next couple years in areas like Rancho Palos Verdes, Inglewood, and elsewhere.
The large number of hydrogen fuel stations and their placement is designed to offer you maximum flexibility in choosing where you fill up — and to give you the ability to stay on the move throughout the LA area. Looking to fill up? See the full Mirai fuel station map for our region, courtesy of Toyota Santa Monica.
More About the 2017 Toyota Mirai
The all-new Toyota Mirai has a lot to offer. By the way, did you know that Toyota Santa Monica is the only dealer in the LA region that offers the Toyota Mirai? If you're on the market for this remarkable vehicle, you're definitely going to want to pay us a visit.
The new Mirai features an innovative hydrogen-fueled engine, a sexy exterior, and a technologically-advanced interior with high-end components and materials. You'll find enhanced safety features, too, including an innovative body design that distributes crash forces to mitigate injury to occupants, an Active Safety System, Pre-Collision System, Safety Connect, Lane Departure Alert, and comprehensive airbags.
The Power of Hydrogen Technology
The Mirai's one-of-a-kind hydrogen engine technology is designed to maximize efficiency, performance, and safety. This system processes hydrogen – stored in reinforced fuel tanks – by combining oxygen in the air with hydrogen to produce a reaction that generates electricity. The end result of this reaction is dihydrogen oxide – or, as you may know it – water!
In other words, the Mirai takes in air and hydrogen and produces water, thereby generating electricity. This level of sustainable automotive power is unparalleled as you won't rely on a coal-burning electricity grid to power your batteries. Instead, you use two very common elements and produce something remarkable.

FOX Sports is once again tapping new technology to enhance its golf broadcast.
The company's coverage of the 117th U.S. Open, one of four annual major championships on the PGA Tour, kicks off next week. FOX will use everything from augmented reality and drones as it tries to provide a better viewing experience for fans watching at home.
Zac Fields, senior vice president of graphic tech and integration at FOX Sports, explained that there will be two versions of augmented reality used for the broadcast next week.
The first is during live action. Every tee shot will be highlighted by some sort of ball-tracing technology — nine tee boxes are equipped with Toptracer for live real-time video overlay, while the other nine have Trackman radar devices that provide enhanced data and are used for FOX FlightTrack, a live trace over a graphic representation of the hole.
The Toptracer technology lets viewers see ball direction and shot shape via animations overlaid on the live video:
"The information is important and informative to heighten the viewing experience and we view it as a necessity much like the yellow line in football," Fields said.
Augmented reality will also be used for graphics in the studio, like virtual leaderboards and virtual holes, which "allow our analysts to break down every hole on the golf course in unique fashion," Fields noted. FOX is using a 75-foot crane that captures overhead views to make this graphics feature possible.
FOX did something similar for last year's coverage:
Drones will also be flying around before the tournament starts as FOX captures aerial video to show during its coverage. FOX is also using 4K cameras on three holes.
All in all, FOX will use 110 total cameras, 216 microphones, 36 miles of fiber optic cabling, and more than 62,000 man hours to put the broadcast together.
This is FOX's third U.S. Open; it inked a 12-year deal with the USGA in 2015 to broadcast the tournament until 2027. Some of the tech that FOX tested in 2015, like virtual reality, won't be used this time around.
"We've continued to improve our technology a great deal each year," Fields noted. "It's essential that we provide our production teams elements that not only make an impact for the viewer, but are also easy to use in their environment."
You can stream the U.S. Open with FOX's streaming app, FOX Sports GO (requires authentication).

The power of industry experience is perspective - perspective we bring to help you best leverage your own capabilities and resources.
As part of the Government's Ten Year Enterprise Tax Plan, the small business entity turnover threshold will be increased from $2 million to $10 million from 1 July 2016.
Under the current law, businesses with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $2 million are entitled to access a number of small business tax concessions, including simplified depreciation rules, trading stock rules, and Pay-As-You-Go instalment calculation methods.
From 1 July 2016, we expect that small business tax concessions, such as the following, will be available to businesses with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $10 million:
However, the Government has indicated that the current $2 million turnover threshold will be retained for the purposes of accessing the small business capital gains tax concessions, and access to the unincorporated small business tax discount will be limited to entities with a turnover of less than $5 million. However, it is unclear whether the new threshold will be applied when determining if businesses can access the new Small Business Restructure rollover relief, which was introduced earlier this year, allowing small businesses to change their legal structure without triggering any income tax liability when business assets are transferred.
The increase in the small business entity turnover threshold is a welcome change for many businesses as it will allow greater access to concessions which had limited application to businesses with turnover of less than $2 million. However, the change in threshold also introduces more complexity and questions as to which concessions will apply the new threshold. For example, the Government has indicated that $2 million threshold will be retained for the purposes of the small business capital gains tax concessions, and the new $5 million threshold for the small business tax discount will add further complexity . Multiple thresholds increase complexity and confusion no matter how well intentioned they are.

First Draco Was Abandoned, Then Separated From His Brother, Next He Was Diagnosed With Kidney Disease
Imagine you are an incredibly social Pointer Mix, living life in a forever home with your sibling. Next thing you know, for reasons unknown to you or your brother, you are both abandoned. Your name is Draco. Your brother is Beethoven. You are both rescued from the shelter and taken to Tikoso Rescue. You are treated well at Tikoso, but then you and your brother find yourselves on extremely different paths. All at once your brother is adopted, you are left behind, and then your stomach begins to grow disproportionately. While you are happy that Beethoven is not in your paws, you miss him terribly, and wonder why all these veterinarians are running tests on you.
It was a sonogram that finally revealed one of Draco's kidneys had not developed and did not connect with his bladder. This was the reason he was retaining fluid. To remove 600 cc of fluid from his stomach, Draco underwent a procedure, but this was not the end of treatment. After being referred to a specialist, it was determined that Draco must have surgery to remove his damaged kidney. After he recovers, Draco will be ready and able to find his new, forever home.
You can help. For only $20 you can change the world for the better and help Draco receive surgery to remove his damaged kidney and pay for additional care. Click here to donate.

Following the discovery of abundant natural gas in the Gulf of Thailand in the eighties, there was a strong demand for qualified manpower to work in the fast growing petrochemical and related industries. Chulalongkorn University, seeing this need, timely established The Petroleum and Petrochemical College in 1988 to produce graduates of high international standards in the fields of petroleum and petrochemical technology and polymer science. Collaborations with internationally recognized universities were envisaged as the most fitting way to establish a graduate program that would be comparable to that offered in world-leading institutions.
in 1991 Associate Professor Kamchad Mongkolkul, Director of the College at the time, visited some 12 U.S. universities to seek possible collaborations. The visit eventually led to collaboration with three leading U.S. universities to conduct International Graduate Programs at the Petroleum and Petrochemical College.
Academic partnership
The College entered into academic partnership in 1992, with three distinguished US universities – Case Western Reserve University, the University of Michigan, and the University of Oklahoma to develop and offer graduate programs at College, that are equipvalent to those offered in leading U.S. universities. In conjunction with its U.S. partners, the College currently offers International Master and Doctor of Philosophy Degree Programs in two majors Petrochemical Technology and Polymer Science.
With the success of the first two programs, the College started, in 2002 a new International Master Degree Program in Petroleum Technology, in conjunction with the Institut Français du Pétrole in France, the University of Michigan and the University of Oklahoma.fake rolex
