European Commission
Olli REHN
Vice-President of the European Commission and member of the Commission responsible for Economic and Monetary Affairs and the Euro
Speaking points by VP Rehn on the in-depth reviews of macroeconomic imbalances in 13 member States
Press Conference
10 April 2013
Good afternoon.
I will present today the findings of all together 13 in-depth reviews prepared by the Commission Services with the leadership of the Financial Affairs Directorate (DG ECFIN). This is in fact a key part of our reformed and reinforced economic governance. This is the second key pillar of the new economic governance. The first pillar is fiscal policy and the Excessive Deficit Procedure while the second pillar is the Macroeconomic Imbalances where we look at structural reforms, competitiveness and many other issues that underlie the health and resilience of the economies.
These in-depth reviews are intended to serve as analytical raw material for the EU member States when they prepare their Stability and Reform programmes by the end of April. And this is also intended to serve as the analytic foundation of the country specific recommendations that the Commission will present on the 29th of May for these countries, and in fact for all 27 Member States.
In a nutshell, the findings of this in-depth review serve as a necessary wake up call for several Member States to take decisive actions for restoring competitiveness and thus creating foundations for sustainable growth and job creation.
Our transformed economic governance enables us to address macroeconomic imbalances pre-emptively and to create the foundations for sustainable growth. Decisive policy action by Member States and at EU-level is helping to rebalance the European economy.
But significant challenges remain: it will take some time yet to complete the unwinding of the imbalances that were able to grow unchecked in the decade up to the crisis, and which continue to take a toll on our economies.
The new governance tools are designed to help governments to pick up on underlying problems and address them without delay, pursuing country specific policies within a wider European framework.
With the 2013 Annual Growth Survey last November we started the third cycle of the European Semester of economic policy coordination. As part of this process, in its Alert Mechanism Report, the Commission screened all Member States for possible macroeconomic imbalances.
This was done on the basis of a scoreboard of indicators as part of the Macroeconomic Imbalances Procedure. I will present today the findings of the 13 in-depth reviews. First I will focus on the underlying economic trends, before turning to specific findings and the way forward.
The current account is one of the key variables for our in-depth analyses.
While current account surpluses should be a sign of healthy competitiveness, they can also reflect market failures or a weakness of domestic demand and investment opportunities. The macro-economic imbalances observed in the EU resulted in a misallocation of resources in surplus countries with negative implications for growth.
The adjustment of external positions is proceeding in many countries and in the euro area as a whole. For the deficit countries, it shows the dampening effects on demand as the inevitable unwinding of high debt levels proceeds and thus imports are reduced. But deficit countries have also experienced a rise in exports thanks to gains in competitiveness. We expect this trend to continue.
You can see that the current account of the euro area as a whole is moving into surplus. Some countries, like Portugal, have been able to broaden their export base to non-EU countries. Also the current account in Spain is moving into surplus. In the Netherlands the current account surplus may increase, reflecting both a competitive and export-oriented economy, but the housing market now contracts domestic demand in the country. Finland, in contrast, now belongs to the group of "former surplus countries" and is alone in this group, since Finland turned to deficit in 2011.
In some cases, the current account deficits were financed with debt. This happened in Spain, where the housing boom was ultimately and extensively and excessively financed with credit from abroad.
In other cases, like the catching-up economies of Bulgaria and Hungary, current account deficits were a reflection of foreign direct investment, which can be a good sign in that kind of circumstance.
Slovenia, also a catching-up country, has not accumulated high foreign liabilities, but was also not able to attract much foreign direct investment either.
The current account programmes accumulated over a long period, a decade, and it will take time to fully reverse them, even if the process of rebalancing is under way.
Most EU Member States have seen their goods export market shares decline in the global markets while those of emerging economies have risen. As a result, the EU Member States are losing relative weight and market power in world trade.
However, inside the EU there have been large differences. Losses in export market shares have been particularly severe in the UK, France, Italy and Finland.
For Hungary and Slovenia, exports were very dynamic, as in other catching-up economies of Eastern and Central Europe, but they have also lost in dynamism in recent years in terms of export market shares.
For Spain, exports have held up well, and recent developments are quite encouraging. However, the share of exports in Spain's GDP [32%] is well below the EU average [45 %] not to speak of Germany's [over 50% of GDP]. This relatively low level of exports reflects the dominance of consumption-fuelled growth in Spain before the crisis.
Another key indicator for competitiveness is unit labour costs.
Though there has been clear progress in unit labour cost convergence, the adjustment in labour markets is not complete. Competitiveness losses accumulated over many years, have not yet been fully recovered.
In a number of countries the adjustment will have to continue through wage moderation as structural reforms proceed. At the same time, the more dynamic job developments that we are seeing in the surplus countries, not least in Germany, will contribute to the rebalancing of the euro area economy in its entirety.
While the in-depth reviews approach countries from a common set of economic indicators, this is not a mechanical exercise. The challenges differ from country to country our quantitative analysis is complemented by qualitative analysis in these in-depth reviews.
However, there are a number of common themes and the first one is.
1. Structural reforms support growth and job creation, which in turn will reduce pressures on public finances. But this often takes time. That is why a credible medium-term fiscal strategy and a comprehensive set of structural reforms complement each other.
2. External adjustment is clearly proceeding and needs to continue and in some countries intensify.
3. In some countries, price and non-price competitiveness remain crucial concerns.
4. Housing markets are still adjusting.
5. Debt levels of households, companies and governments are still high on average in Europe, but are being reduced. This deleveraging is necessary, even if it inevitably dampens growth in the short-term.
Now, what do we draw as conclusions from these in-depth reviews at this stage? I want to underline and remind you that we are indeed making the country specific recommendations at the end of May. These in-depth reviews are intended as policy making raw material for Member States who have imbalances and they give some general conclusion, indications at this stage but we will make a more profound assessment once we get Stability and Reform programmes from the Member States by early May. On that basis we will make the country specific recommendations.
Based on the in-depth reviews and in line with the agreed rules, the Commission assesses whether a country has no imbalances or it has imbalances and whether these are excessive.
Overall, we found that in all these 13 countries there are imbalances of different kinds. Let me highlight two cases in particular.
In Slovenia, while in a still manageable position, excessive macroeconomic imbalances are quickly building up. In order to halt and reverse this negative trend, Slovenia needs now to proceed swiftly and decisively. It should complete the reforms it has started and include comprehensive and concrete policy measures in its forthcoming National Reform Programme and Stability Programme to be presented to the Commission in the coming weeks.
In Spain, despite significant progress in 2012, there are still excessive macroeconomic imbalances. Spain should therefore maintain the reform momentum by including comprehensive and concrete policy measures in its forthcoming Stability and reform Programmes.
As I said, the Commission works in partnership with both the governments, as well as with other governments. We want to support these countries in their reform efforts and once we have the Stability and Reform programmes at our disposal, we will present our assessment, by the end of May.
On 29th of May, for all Member States we will present our assessment of the budgetary and reform plans and come forward with concrete country-specific recommendations for each and every Member States.
In this context, we will also consider whether further steps are needed for those Member States with excessive imbalances.
At that time we will also reassess the situation under the on-going excessive deficit procedures and, where necessary, adopt the appropriate recommendations to the Council and then to the Member States, focusing as ever on the structural sustainability public finances over the medium-term in the Member States.
This approach again underlines what I said before: Structural reforms to enhance sustainable growth and job creation and a sound fiscal policy go hand in hand complement each other.
Thank you.

(May 20, 2006) - Florida Atlantic scored three runs in the seventh inning, completing a two-run rally and finishing off a sweep of the Bucs 7-3 to close out the regular season Saturday afternoon at FAU Field.
Trailing 2-1, second baseman William Block reached to lead off the seventh inning after being hit by a pitch, and advanced to second on designated hitter Mike McKenna's single to left. Third baseman Daniel Cook followed with a double down the right field line to tie the game. Shortstop Nick Arata bunted back to Glafenhein, and no play could be made, scoring McKenna and moving runners to the corners with no one out. Left fielder Jordan Hafer drove Cook home with a single to left, capping the inning's scoring.
After five scoreless innings, the Bucs (29-25, 14-16) finally broke through in the sixth, plating two runs and claiming their second lead of the series. Senior Shane Byrne (
The Owls (29-26, 14-16) cut the lead in half, stringing together three consecutive singles, and loaded the bases with one out, but reliever Caleb Glafenhein (Knoxville, Tenn.) induced Silversmith to ground into a 6-4-3 double play, ending the threat.
After the big seventh inning, the Owls added three more runs in the eighth inning, and the Bucs for the game's final margin.

I absolutely ADORE Isana especially in these last few chapters! Considering I've been supportive of Yumeji x Isana already, I just loved that hug scene at the end. Yumeji is seriously one of the coolest male MC's for this type of story (with Isana's dad being the coolest dad, of course). If this series is going to have Yumeji end up with someone, I really hope it's Isana even though I really like Merry too. I've always felt that Yumeji and Merry should just be bros since they work perfectly like that already.

chapter almost gave me a hard attack. It's hard to root for one specific girl when the two are pretty much likable characters. So I guess I'll have to cheer both, which is pretty rare.

I am sticking by Yumeji was Merry's vessel when they were younger...
I am personally leaning towards Isana IF Yumeji is really human than the only option is Isana I don't think a nightmare can have a relationship with a human and we must remember that Merry's original goal is to return which as the series goes Will probably happen at least in my opinion. I usually am biased towards the childhood friend... In most cases

Considering the scene at the very beginning of the series where we see a younger Yumeji and Merry running towards the gate, the two could be childhood companions from the same dream and went to the real world to see something or someone.

I just noticed that in the opening it is shown that Yumeji has the scar on his hand meaning that he already Met Isana at the playground with him saving her from the fall, notice that Merry does not have the scar... In my oppinion I think that Yumeji meets Merry in that dream, the grey area is why Merry can grow up, Mightmare's can't grow up unless some part of her is human hence why she can exist in the human world without a vessel, every thing from here is just guess work
It has been established that she is the gate keeper, I'm willing to bet that perhaps Yumeji and Merry are siblings who are born from a perhaps a human and nightmare, probably the nightmare being the previous gatekeeper so when Pharos entered the real world he proably killed the gatekeeper in essense passing the torch to Merry who inherited half the skills with the other half going to Yumeji. Thats just what I think and even I doubt myself.

Perhaps Yumeji gave up some of his humanity in exchange for Merry to become human enough to have her own body in the real world. They did something together. The fact that both of their earlier memories are hazy at best can't be just a coincidence. Also, the fact that both of their personalities are similar can't be a coincidence either. For Merry who repeatedly says "I have no hopes or dreams," she may not initially have had a personality either. She may have been nearly catatonic and unemotional until Yumeji did something with her as a child and given her his personality.
Also, the fact that Merry received a powerup in the same battle Yumeji developed his Lucid Gadget against Landsborough and Noir can't be just a coincidence either. I don't believe that Yumeji is totally unrelated to Merry.

NEW YORK — Almost none of us would have been invited to one of the famous parties at Sue Mengers' swishy pad in "The Hills of Beverly." Those networking opportunities — wherein Faye Dunaway could get cast in "Chinatown" between appetizer and desert, or the genial director William Friedkin could be leaned upon, on a client's behalf, over cocktails — were reserved for those greater mortals of the firmament. The "twinklies," the Hollywood superagent Mengers liked to call them. Of course, gossip never has been constrained by social class. But at chez Sue, the rich twinklies of the 1970s and '80s dished with the cold dishes.
There are two possible responses to such faux-intimate Hollywood parties — and the one you favor likely will determine your response to "I'll Eat You Last," the shamelessly gossipy, one-woman tribute to Mengers penned by John Logan, directed by Joe Mantello and starring the redoubtable Bette Midler. You might find such characters and events indulgent, insufferable, trivial, even preening — the consequence of too much money sloshing around the wrong priorities. In that case, you'll have had your fill of the bon mots, the slight soupcons of Hollywood back story, the insider whatever, long before the curtain has fallen on Midler, even though the show is a scant 90 minutes. Or — and this category would likely contain most those inclined to buy a costly ticket for such a show — you could eat up this stuff as if you were a star-struck caterer used to listening at the door, perennially eager to feed on whatever morsel of personal revelation might come your way.
Despite the way it revolves around the heart-stopping question of whether or not Barbra will call, this deeply sentimental piece of Broadway theater does have a modestly broader purpose. As Logan writes it, Mengers is the last of the breed, a self-made individual who did business like a knowledgeable but happy-go-lucky butcher in a small town filled with meat lovers: one client at a time, with plenty of respect for the individual and many laughs along the way. As in many other business, the big, cold, efficient corporations (CAA, et al.) have taken over this world of celebrity representation, squeezing out efficiencies but, so this play contends, coming replete with gray executives incapable of colorful conversation at one of Mengers' parties. Not that they ever would have found themselves on the guest list. Too declasse.
In a weird way, this piece of theater, despite being created by wealthy individuals, all of whom profit very nicely from these big agencies, is actually a plea for Old Hollywood, a mom-and-pop (please!) kind of place where people had fun. And made money, sure, sure. But did we mention the fun?
Midler does not get off the couch during this monologue — one might call this the "Last Agent on the Couch Play." Apparently, this is an accurate take on Mengers' modus operandi at home, or so say those who might have been at one of those parties. Mantello shrewdly makes a thing of it: Midler, whose bona fides in this arena are unimpeachable, even has a guy up from the audience get her a drink and a joint. But it sure as heck imposes some theatrical limitations, especially if you're in the audience and you have a head blocking you, just so. Not only does Midler not get up from the couch, she even stays in the same section of the couch. Dishing.
Midler, as you might imagine, gives good dish. Superlative dish, even. There will be some for whom 90 minutes in the presence of an outsize character playing an outsize character will be a most delightful evening, leaving ample time for post-show martinis. That's the appeal of this pain-free bit of cannibalism. Meanwhile, the rest of America, the one without the invite, has to worry about more substantial matters.
"I'll Eat You Last" plays on Broadway at the Booth Theatre, 222. W. 45th St., New York. 212-239-6200 or illeatyoulast.com

The good people at the Daily What point us to this heartwarming story of a father in a small southern German town who didn't quite know what to do when his 5-year-old son refused to go out wearing anything other than a dress. Ultimately Nils Pickert settled on wearing one himself in solidarity.
The original article is in German, and Google Translate does a botched job of rendering it in English, but the results are still fairly touching:
Yes, I am one of those fathers who are trying their children, to educate equally. I'm not one of those academics Papis, the drivel in the study of gender justice and then as soon as a child is born, but fall back into the soft and cuddly stereotype gender roles: He realized professionally, she takes care of the rest.
Plus: When Kids Defy Gender Roles
People in their town of 5,000 wonder if his efforts are sensible or silly.
Pickert's retort: "Neither."
Bonus: long skirts with elastic bands fit him quite well.
What do you think of Pickert's approach? Is his wearing a dress thoughtful or counterproductive? Let us know in the comments.

Ideally Adobe recommend Uninstalling the older version before installing the new version however there are people including me who have muliple veriosn installed on there computer and the applications are working fine.
It would be your wish , how you want to go ahead, you can remove PSE 8 and also you can leave it and install PSE 10
2. Re: Install Elements/Premiere 10.Tervuren Apr 30, 2012 9:55 PM (in response to Manish-Sharma)
Manish, thanks for your reply. I presume that if I uninstall PSE 8 and PE 8 before installing PSE 10 & PE 10, that all my pictures and videos would remain and would then appear in PSE 10. Is that correct?
3. Re: Install Elements/Premiere 10.Manish-Sharma May 1, 2012 5:58 AM (in response to Tervuren)1 person found this helpful
Yes , you will have all the pictures and videos intact, however will you be able to open them in PSE 10?
Not sure for this as not an user of PSE 10 or PRE10 , hence never checked and tested, but ideally it should work.
4. Re: Install Elements/Premiere 10.Tervuren May 1, 2012 10:43 PM (in response to Manish-Sharma)
Thanks again.

"It is good to see the Pride of Mexico, Julio César Chávez Jr., return to the ring to defend his world middleweight championship that he won when he dethroned Sebastian Zbik in Los Angeles," said Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum."Houston has a rich and meaningful boxing tradition. We are delighted that Julio's first defense against Peter Manfredo, Jr. will take place at Reliant Arena."
"It was always my dream to win a world championship and I accomplished that in my last fight when I beat Zbik. Now I want to be more than just a world champion. I want to be a world champion for the rest of my career," said Chávez. "I am taking my first title defense very seriously and I couldn't be happier to be making it in front of the great boxing fans of Houston."
"I am very excited about getting the opportunity to fight Chávez. He is a world champion and I followed his father growing up, so this fight is very special to me," said Manfredo "I have a lot of respect for him as he is the world champion. This is a great opportunity for me and also great opportunity for the fans as this is going to be a great fight. I am going to be prepared 100% to win and bring this belt home to Rhode Island. Winning this fight for me is everything. If I lose this fight I am done with boxing. I see this as my last opportunity, and I don't plan on letting it pass me by. I know I am in for a tough fight but it's a winnable fight and I am very confident I will do just that."
"Peter is a warrior and he is very strong at 160," said Lou DiBella, Manfredo's promoter. "He will propose a serious threat to Chavez Jr. in what we expect to be an exciting fight. Conceivably Peter could return to Providence with Chavez' title belt."
"Julio César Chávez, Jr. had an exciting HBO debut last June and we're pleased to see him back on the network in a tough matchup with a formidable challenger in Peter Manfredo Jr.," said Kery Davis, senior vice president of programming HBO Sports.
Chávez Jr. (43-0-1, 30 KOs), of Culiacan, México, making his first appearance in Houston since 2004, is the son of Mexico's greatest fighter Julio César Chávez. Chávez, 25, took up the "family business" in 2003, winning a four-round decision in his professional debut. Eight years later, the reigning WBC middleweight champion and superior gate attraction is poised to make his own mark in the boxing world. He took a major step toward that goal by enlisting legendary trainer Freddie Roach to take him to the next level. Their first fight together was a gigantic success, winning the vacant WBC silver middleweight with a dominant 12-round unanimous decision over top-10 contender John Duddy (29-1, 18 KOs), in June 2010 at the Alamodome in San Antonio. After successfully defending that title on January 29, winning a unanimous decision over Billy Lyell, Chávez Jr. became the second family member to win a world title, by dethroning undefeated WBC middleweight champion Sebastian Zbik via majority decision. The June 4 slugfest took place at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles just a few blocks north of the Olympic Auditorium where the legendary Julio César Chávez won his first world title.
Manfredo (37-6, 20 KOs), of Providence, RI, first earned worldwide attention with his runner-up finish on NBC's "The Contender" during the television show's debut season in 2005. The son of former world kickboxing champion Peter Manfredo, Sr., Manfredo made his pro debut in 2000 after an outstanding amateur career. Before competing on "The Contender" Manfredo's professional resume featured impressive victories over former world champion Frankie Randall, via a seventh-round knockout; top-10 contender Ian Gardner, tagging him with his first professional loss; Sherwin Davis for the vacant NABO junior middleweight title; and a lopsided decision over Anthony Bonsante in his first NABO title defense. Following his stint in "The Contender," Manfredo went undefeated in 2006 and earned a shot at undefeated WBO super middleweight champion in 2007. Though unsuccessful in his challenge the experience was invaluable to Manfredo. He enters this fight riding a two-year-six-bout winning streak, which has included NABF and IBO middleweight title victories over Matt Vanda and Angel Hernandez, respectively. Manfredo, 30, is currently world-rated No. 4 by the WBC

This professional and robust illuminated bollard with photocell has a fortress head and a matt garden green or graphite black finish. 4 different heights are available (400mm, 600mm, 800mm or 1000mm) - a height suitable for every application such as driveways, paths and sectioned areas. There are also three styles of head to choose from, one being a 'domed' top,one being a 'pillar' top and the third being 'flat' top.
The inbuilt photocell dusk to dawn sensor automatically turns the bollard light on when it detects dark (dusk) and off again when it detects light (dawn). This means there is no need to remember to switch the fitting on and off manually, and will generally result in less product maintenance. Fitted with an E27 LED (available from Lumena), this photocell bollard is an ideal and effective way to reduce energy bills yet add security.
The colour of a lamp is defined as a measurement called kelvins. A standard GLS light bulb in your house would be 2,700 kelvins
which is in the warm colour spectrum and a lamp with 6,000 kelvins would be at the very cold white spectrum. Getting
the right colour temperature of a lamp does matter as the warm colour wavelength helps to soften skin tones and gives
a warm soft relaxed feel and at the other end of the scale a 4,000 to 6,000 kelvin lamp colour would be used in
offices or a fast food restaurants to make you feel less comfortable and relaxed and more alert. There's nothing that
can sour your opinion of a compact fluorescent or LED lamp like buying a 4000K or 5000K bulb when you meant to
buy a 2700K bulb, or vice-versa. When you buy a new, energy efficient bulb, keep your application and colour scheme in
mind and make sure to buy the bulb with a colour temperature to match.
Choosing the style of a product is only part of the equation you must also think of where that product will be used and how it will be installed. All exterior lighting products on our web site have a IP rating which is explained further in our design ideas section but in simple terms the IP rating is appropriate to each light fitting and its intended application and is therefore fit for purpose. Water ingress is the enemy for outdoor lighting and the products supplied are only as good as the installation as the weakest point is always cable and transformer joints. All joint must be made 100% water tight and this can be done using heat shrink kits, waterproof junction boxes which are then filled with a resin mix. All joints where possible should be made above ground for easy access and reduced water ingress. When installing ground buried lights adequate drainage systems should be put in place especially in clay based soil areas. If possible use ground surface spike lights rather than a buried light. Mains 240v cable will have less joint than a low voltage installation but care must be taken with the cable runs.
Light levels are measured in something called LUX. Put simply LUX is a measurement of light falling on a given surface area. For example an average LUX of 200 would be needed for an outdoor tennis court for recreational purposes and a side street walkway would have an average of 5 LUX. To calculate lux levels you need a very good calculator or computer as there is a number of factors that need to be taken in to account.
Sunny June day 80000 Lux
Bad light stopped play at Lords 1000 Lux
A well lit office 500 Lux
Main road lighting 15 Lux
A residential side street 5 Lux
A clear moonlit night 0.2 Lux

So the Diamond Dawgs must have lost their opening round SEC tournament game. Dawgs lose opening to Vandy 4-1. I'd love to say there is one reason for it, but other than one stretch in the third inning, the Dawgs did all they had to defensively to win. Offensively, Vandy got the same number of hits, but scored three more runs. Pretty much a microcosm of the season: Play good, but not great, and lose to a team they played evenly with.
Now, the Dawgs find themselves in exactly the same situation as last season, having lost to Vandy in the Tuesday game and needing to play deep into the weekend to play next week. Going into the SEC tourney, Georgia needed to win a couple last year to not have to sweat too much on selection day. I still think a win over South Carolina and a win over Florida will probably get the Dawgs in, just like last year. Both of those programs were very good last year. Both are very good this year. If it is Vandy and one of those other teams we beat to play until Saturday, I don't know. Being one or two games over .500 and making the NCAA regionals requires pretty strong late season statement wins. Beating Vandy won't fill that requirement.
By no means is it a lost cause. Unless we start getting hits when we need to, however, this season will end in Hoover instead of in an exciting regional final somewhere.

Pod2g has decided to share a little more information on the hopefully soon to be released iPhone 4S and iPad 2 jailbreak. In a blog post, pod2g has answered a couple of questions that may have been on your mind as you await its release. One of the questions is how he has managed to get an untethered 4S and dev teams still haven't released tools to achieve this at home?
The exploit I used to inject the untethering files to the 4S relies on having a developer account, and can't be released publicly.It's the same reason why @MuscleNerd has an iPad 2 tethered jailbreak but couldn't distribute it. So, we need to find a distributable exploit to remount the system partition read/write and to set Corona files at the correct places.
It looks like the jailbreak may not be as imminent as we expected. Until this last hurdle is out of the way, it can't be released publicly. We will let you know as soon as we hear anymore.

Back-and-forth affair ends with Hill's walk-off
PHOENIX -- Throughout the whirlwind ride that has encapsulated the D-backs' 2013 season, the club's erratic nature has created heroes and goats on a seemingly daily basis.
Tuesday night's wild game at Chase Field produced plenty of both, but fortunately for Arizona, the heroes found a way to will the team to a much-needed victory as it tries to inch farther into the playoff picture.
PHOENIX -- Throughout the whirlwind ride that has encapsulated the D-backs' 2013 season, the club's erratic nature has created heroes and goats on a seemingly daily basis.
Tuesday night's wild game at Chase Field produced plenty of both, but fortunately for Arizona, the heroes found a way to will the team to a much-needed victory as it tries to inch farther into the playoff picture.
After building leads of four in the eighth and two in the ninth only to see them evaporate, the D-backs finally closed out the pesky Padres in the 10th inning when Aaron Hill drove a deep single into left field off Dale Thayer to give Arizona its 11th walk-off win of the season, 10-9.
"A win is a win, no matter how you get it," Hill said. "We'll take every one of them. As long as it's a victory at the end of the night, I don't care how it comes about."
Tuesday's win, which pulled the club to within five games of the Reds for the second National League Wild Card Spot, marked the D-backs' 29th victory in their last at-bat and 38th comeback win of 2013, both of which lead the Majors.
"When you step back, it's amazing," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said. "It's a good sign."
The 10th inning began with back-to-back singles by Adam Eaton and Paul Goldschmidt before a Martin Prado fly ball to center moved the lead runner to third, setting up Hill's game-ending hit moments later, with the Padres playing with two outfielders and five infielders.
"The whole at-bat I was looking for something up; I chased up on the first fastball, but I didn't change my approach," Hill said. "With five infielders, you just have to look for something you can get under. It worked out."
Of course, the D-backs could have made things a lot easier on themselves, but that would have been out of character for a team that has already played 20 extra-inning games this year, one shy of the franchise record.
Armed with a four-run cushion after seven relatively pedestrian innings, Chaz Roe, Joe Thatcher and Will Harris combined to give up four hits and two walks in the eighth to tie the game at 7.
After Prado handed the bullpen another opportunity when he plated two runs in the bottom of the frame with a double down the left-field line, Brad Ziegler allowed three hits and two walks in the ninth to once again tie the game. Ziegler managed to escape the inning on a brilliant diving catch by Prado, preventing at least two runs from scoring as Jedd Gyorko scorched a line drive down the third-base line.
"We were tied, so I had to guard the line," Prado said. "He hit the line drive, I got a chance to see it and I just dove for it. It was good that I caught that ball."
Still, the damage was done, as the D-backs upped their Major League-leading blown save total to 26. Arizona had one more chance to end the game before extras in its half of the ninth, but Cliff Pennington was caught in a rundown to end the frame after trying to score on a pitch in the dirt.
"We didn't play a very good game to be honest with you; we were fortunate to win it, but true to these guys' form, they continued to battle even though they made a lot of mistakes," Gibson said. "The bullpen obviously had some trouble, yet you make mistakes, but you still keep yourself in it. That's what the game is all about."
Although Hill ended up being the one getting mobbed on the field following his winning hit, Prado and Gerardo Parra each turned in performances worthy of celebration.
Prado's spectacular defensive play in the ninth combined with a two-hit, three RBI night for the latest in a slew of impressive games for him this month, during which he leads the National League with 38 hits and 30 RBIs.
"Everything is about confidence; this game is streaky," Prado said. "When you get in a hot one, you have to take advantage of it, and that's what I'm doing."
As for Parra, he drove in five runs off Ian Kennedy -- including three on his 10th homer -- in the former D-backs ace's first start at Chase Field since being traded to San Diego last month. After tallying just two RBIs in July, the 26-year-old has collected eight in just his last three games.
Kennedy ended up working just 4 1/3 innings and allowing six runs on six hits and five walks.
"It was difficult; I knew it would be a little different," Kennedy said about pitching against his former teammates. "I just put myself in holes, putting guys on; I walked a lot of guys. It's tough to do that. But it was a lot tougher than I thought it would be."
Although he did not factor into the decision, D-backs starter David Holmberg struggled with his command at times in his Major League debut and was knocked around over 3 2/3 innings, surrendering six hits and three walks. The left-hander, ranked by MLB.com as the club's No. 5 prospect, allowed just three runs, but at least a handful of the outs he recorded came on hard-hit balls.
"I was pumped up," Holmberg said. "It snowballed a little, but I think I did a good job of containing them to three runs. It was a crazy game, but I'm glad we came out on top."

David Copperfield is the novel that draws most closely from Charles Dickens's own life. Its eponymous hero, orphaned as a boy, grows up to discover love and happiness, heartbreak and sorrow amid a cast of eccentrics, innocents, and villains. Praising Dickens's power of invention, Somerset Maugham wrote: "There were never such people as the Micawbers, Peggotty and Barkis, Traddles, Betsey Trotwood and Mr. Dick, Uriah Heep and his mother.

FCC Considers Propping Up Old School Journalism, As Copps Blames The Internet And Bloggers
from the say-what-now? dept
This makes almost no sense, and is, in fact, contradictory. The rise of "the internet and bloggers" has massively increased the diversity of people involved in reporting and distributing the news. The barriers of entry to being a journalist have been lowered to almost nothing at all, and people have flooded the market. Copps views that as a problem, but apparently doesn't note the total contradiction in then immediately lamenting the decrease in diversity of journalists in traditional media jobs:
"We're not only losing journalists, we may be losing journalism," he said. "Some blame the Internet and bloggers, and that's certainly a part of the story. All that consolidation and mindless deregulation, rather than reviving the news business, condemned us to less real news, less serious political coverage, less diversity of opinion, less minority and female ownership, less investigative journalism and fewer jobs for journalists."What's really troubling is that he seems to think this is a problem that the FCC needs to fix. This certainly seems to go well beyond the FCC's mandate, and it takes an impressive amount of conceptual blindness not to see that the solution is exactly what he described was a part of the problem.

Ixi, gaxi, kolmen (or similar, 1 2 3), that't all I know
I remember finland as veeery cold.
I was 17, when I hitchhiked to Torneo in winter.
It took half a year then, until I could take a warm bath without pain in my feet, that got damaged by the cold
But I really remember that trip with joy, the Tundra around Kautokeino, celebrating Sylvester with the Sameh people there was a real great experience
Ok, that was norway, but from there I traveled to Torneo then, and took the bus back home.
Greets to the countries of the beautiful northern lights, Mark

Yes, MU, Kautokeino is in the north of Norway. I didn't know that you had been in Norway? Anyways, it's great you like the lands here in north, I think Germany is a good place, too
Have you visited other places in Norway? Our capital, Oslo, or Troms�, also in the north?
And greetings to both Finland, Germany, and Australien (for making this great OS)
PS: Taavi, I think there are other Puppy-users from Suomi, at least Puppe. I haven't seen him much; I think he have posted two times, but he said he had a keybord from Finland.

Oh yes, I was in Troms� one week.
I was heading north as fast as possible, because I wanted to see the nuurlyssen (polar lights).
I arrived there just knowing about "tyske Peer" who should work in the planetarium.
Some Sameh told me, I should visit him, he certainly would be glad to see another german.
When I walked through the streets with my backpack, a car stopped asking what I was looking for. I talked about Peer, and that I looked for a place to build my tent.
He (called Tom, if I remember well) could not help me and drove away, but 10 minutes later he came back, and invited me to stay in the appartement of his cousine, who was at holyday
He worked in a bar (maybe the only one in Troms�
), as a doorkeeper.
His colegue Andreas invited me to go to Kautokeino with hm, as his uncle has the only hotel there.
So I never met tyske Peer, but stayed another week in Kautokeino, celebrating Sylvester in the hotel, where many Sameh met.
I was invited to eat rendeer-heart ragout, what was really excellent *mnjammnjam*
From there I had to go back to school, so I visited no ther places.
After 2 very cold nights I finally arrived in Torneo, where I took the bus via sweden back home then.
I really loved the atmosphere at the polar circle.
In germany, winters are often rainy, so real snow is great.
And in the darkness (I saw no sun for 2 weeks
) the "colour-dots" are impressioning, like the candles on mainstations, or the blue/red/yellow clothes of the Sameh with the silver-jewelry.
I also was astonished, that norway had a quite active Jazzrock-scene at that time (23 years ago now). Like this music still today.

Yes, the polar lights is a great sight, I think you can see the from Mo i Rana, and further north. I remember one time the lights where so powerfull, that you could see them from Denmark, and surely from Germany too!
BTW, did you know that "tyske Peer" means "Deutch Peer"?
I have been in Germany only for a day, but I'm not that old, I'm gonna go there again.
Ein, zwei, drei, vier, f�nf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, zehn. See? I know a little Deutch! Ich bin Norwegen. Du bist Deutch.

yes, tyske Peer = deutscher Peter.
Mo i Rana, there I spent a night in my tent
Are you from the Bergen region then?
When you come to germany again, Hamburg will be on your way, as it is close to the danish border.
You can make a rest here if you like, I have a small room for guests. Very simple, but ok if you don't want to loose money for hotels.

Well, it may be some years to, but thanks for asking
I'm not even 18.
No, I am a bit north of Bergen, more exactly in Bod�
BTW, I was in Flensburg, so I haven't seen much of Germany.

P�iv�� taavi!
T��ll� on yksi puppyn suomalainen k�ytt�j�.
Puppy 2.02 minulla on asennettuna HP Compaq NX6125-l�pp�riin ja muuten pelaa mainiosti, mutta n�ppiksen kanssa on pienoista ongelmaa - osa n�pp�imist� ei toimi, tai toimii v��rin. Esim. �t-merkki pit�� tehd� 'leikkaa/liimaa'-periaatteella, kun puppy tulkitsee alt gr-napin enteriksi... Enk� kyll� ole en�� uudestaan, sen s�ssitty�ni, saanut t�t� n�yt�nohjaintakaan oikein pelaamaan. Onneksi on tuo VESA-ajuri...
N�iden ongelmien takia t�nne rekister�idyin ja oli ilo l�yt�� t��lt� omaa kielt�ni puhuvia ihmisolentoja. Mukava tavata.
And same in english...
Good afternoon Taavi!
Here is on finnish puppy-user.
I have Puppy 2.02 installed on a HP Compaq NX6125 laptop and it's working well, besides a keyboard broblem - some of the keys works as supposed, some works, but wrongly or doesn't work at all. For example at -mark must be done with copy/paste, cause puppy thinks that 'alt gr' is 'enter'... And I haven't got my graphigs card working again after I fooled it around somehow. Luckily there is that VESA-driver...
These little broblems are the reason why I registered here and it was a pleasure to find someone speaking my language from here. Nice to meet you.

lienenk� parisen vuotta Puppyn kanssa pelannut. Nyt olisin luopunut Windowsista kokonaan, mutta jouduin j�tt�m��n sen toiselle koneelle, kun toiminimeni kirjanpito-ohjelmaa ei saa linuxille.
Linuxin kanssa olen aivan aloittelija yh�kin, mutta Puppy on tosi helppo ja k�ytt�j�yst�v�llinen. Alkaa siin�kin suhteessa olla W.a edell�. Eik� ole ollut mink��nlaista kaipuuta takaisin Windowsk�ytt�j�ksi. Ei tarvitse kuin k�yd� vaimon kompuutterilla napsuttelemassa, siin� kun on yh� XP, on kovin iso ero siin� mill� vauhdilla ohjelmat k�ynnistyv�t jne. Ja olen min� toki siihenkin koneeseen itse�ni varten Puppyn t�k�nnyt.
Puppyn ymp�rill� touhuava porukka on ��rimm�isen yst�v�llist� ja viitseli�st�. Kaikkiin typeriinkin pulmiin olen saanut ratkaisun ja paristakin k�ytt�m�st�ni ohjelmasta ovat tekaisseet dotpupin, hyv� kun olen ehtinyt pyyt��.
N�pp�imist�n kanssa temppuilin itsekin. Nyt toimivat, kun tuli tuo country ocalisatiooni -juttu. Se tosin vaatii xorgin toimiakseen. Kannettavasta ei ole minulla kokemuksia. Mukavaa, ett� Puppylla on t��ll� muitakin k�ytt�ji�.
Englanninnan joskus ainakin osin.

Hei vaan kaikille .. foorumin neitsyys menee t�ss�, ja muutenkin newbie koko linux maailmassa.
Koneena on wanha StinkPad 600 (233mhz 132mb 5.1gb) ja Puppy puhalsi siihen uuden el�m�n .. py�rittelin win2k t�ss� kunnes kyll�styin odottelemaan. Kone ollut vuosia kaapissa ker��m�ss� p�ly�. Aikasemmin yritin laittaa DSL:ia t�h�n mutta ei osannut ymm�rt�� n�yt�n asetuksia ja lopulta annoin olla, Puppy on kyll� lunastanut lupauksensa kaikin puolin.
Ei ole kyll� winukkaan paluuta en��, sen verran hieno on. Viel� laitain Ubuntun tuohon p�yt�koneeseen .. kun myrkky� on kerran saatu niin..

I guess is not very polite to discuss here onlu with finnish, but you know it's much easier than in english. It's fine there appears puppy users that are able to discuss with this beautiful language (as all languages are, of course). MU has a good start to finnish speaking ...yksi, kaksi kolme and there you go. And many thanks for you making usefull dotpups and helping us beginners. And greetings to Norway too, Wolfen. Only times I've been in norway are visites in Lappland. I have driven once from N��t�m� till Utsjoki and once I have biked from Karigasniemi to Kautokeino and Hetta (Enonteki�). I don't remember exatly if I visited Norway when I participate a journey to Torsby and it's region (Finnskog) in Sweden. I lived previously in Rautalampi, from where in 1600's thousands of people moved to Finnskog area hoping to get better living. I guess that this region reach to Norway also. And as you read this, you must understand why I like to write in finnish for a change.
Mukavaa, ett� suomipuppyilijoita ilmaantuu lis��. Tervetuloa mukaan.

Scarlino: Act 2, Can Cirillo Hold On To Melges 32 Audi Sailing Series Lead?
27 April 2010
Scarlino, 26 April 2010 - The second stage of the 2010 Audi Melges 32 Sailing Series takes place this weekend, April 30 - May 2 on the western coast of Italy hosted by Club Nautico Scarlino. Assembled and standing in order for yet another spectacular showdown are 18 phenomenal teams comprised of some of the worlds greatest sailors.
The participation grows by two for the Scarlino edition and includes 2009 World Champion Pieter Taselaar on Bliksem with Jeremy Wilmot on tactics and European Melges 32 Fleet President Filippo Pacinotti welcomes back tactician Freddy Loof aboard Brontolo. Look for great things from Luca Lalli on BLinSailing and super-tactician Lorenzo Bressani, also aboard is Federico Michetti and former America's Cup sailor Flavio Favini. Calling the shots for Pilot Italia owner Francesco Martino is the legendary Vasco Vascotto. Needless to say, this fleet isn't short on talent or potential.
Sitting front and center, leading the overall series charge is Lanfranco Cirillo on Fantastica with the careful and patient eye of tactician Michele Paoletti. Cirillo blasted the fleet with speed in Lerici pulling off an incredible win ahead of 15 other competitors. Cirillo has competed at almost every Melges 32 event thus far in 2010. His goal, victory at the 2010 World Championship are firmly in his master plans. He has also confirmed his future participation at the 2010 U.S. Nationals (Official Crew List) in Harbor Springs, Mich July 29 - August 1, before heading west to San Francisco, Calif. USA.
Seated second and definitely one to watch is Mauro Mocchegiani's Rush Diletta, Matteo Ivaldi will call tactics. Defending 2009 Audi Sailing Series Champion Carlo Alberini on Calvi Network holds the third place position. Faithful, tried and true on tactics is 2009 series winning tactician Gabriele Benussi. As a staple member of Alberini's Calvi Network, his team is strong and determined to win.
Registration, weigh-in, measurement checks and practice racing are scheduled for Thursday, April 29. Official racing commences on Friday, April 30 with the first warning signal happening just past noon, with more scheduled for Saturday, May 1 and Sunday, May 2. Awards take place afterwards where in addition to the top prizes, the all new, exclusive Melges watch will be raffled, special thanks to Ferdinando Battistella on Cuervo Y Sobrinos.
In addition to the incredible racing that awaits the Melges 32 fleet, everyone is also looking forward to a wonderful line up of off-the-water festivities.
Immediately following Friday's racing, the newly formed ROARK Melges 32 team owned by Kees Kaan will bring a dose of tradition to the fleet as he hosts a Koninginnedag party in honor of Queen's Day, a Dutch national holiday. After racing on Saturday, another new team steps up to the party plate, Francesco Serena on H2SO4 will host an on-the-dock party just ahead of, what will be an exquisite owners dinner at Col di Sasso. This impeccable location is the ultimate Maremma Tuscan style experience. The dinner will take place at the lovely farmhouse estate seated among the confines of Italy's natural surroundings. The sprawling property overlooks hills populated by olive trees and forests as well as sunsets on the Gulf of Follonica and the Tuscan Archipelago. Col di Sasso is the most exclusive part of the estate. The dinner will be located in the high part of the house called Campo di Chiara that features classic colors and decor typical of the Tuscan countryside. Rounding out the onshore activities is a Sunday morning breakfast hosted by the Fra Martina Melges 32 team owned by Edoardo Pavesio.

So our very-soon-to-be-released seasonal, named Bog Water, is already getting folks talking (read: typing) over on the BarTowel forum. The BarTowel is a great online discussion forum for all things beer in Ontario. They also host the Golden Tap awards, which we've won two of so far.
So anyway, they're having a conversation back and forth about whether giving Bog Water such an absurd name is a good thing or a bad thing. It got me thinking about how we actually came up with the name and how we developed the recipe.
BELOW: A typical bog with a walk (BogWalker).
One year before our actual launch, when we were in the depths of business plans and investor pitches, my dad, mom, sister and Kevin (her husband) and my wife and I went on a camping retreat. Basically, we discussed strategy while failing miserably to catch a fish, and then roasted "[insert objectionable incest reference here]s," a concoction my friends Eddy and JimmyRye invented involving marshmallows and hotdogs.
We picked up a bunch of Muskoka's beer 'cause we were just outside Huntsville, and started talking about names. At that point we had tentatively named the company Beau's Brewing Company and we had already landed on LugTread, but at that time we wanted to start off with three full time brands (until we learned what a logistical nightmare that would have been).
We have a goal to promote Eastern Ontario with everything we do, so we wanted to find names that would celebrate the local history, landscape etc. But we also wanted the name to stand out, be different, and hopefully be kind of fun, too.
I had printed out a list of all the endangered plants and animals that live in the nearby Alfred Bog (the largest and highest-quality bog remaining in Southern Ontario) that I had found on the Internet. So for a while we tried to come up with names that would pay homage to the Bog Elfin Butterfly, Fletcher's Dragonfly, Spotted Turtle, Red-shouldered Hawk, Golden Eagle, White Fringed Orchid, Atlantic Sedge or Rhodora, but nothing was sticking (fancy that).
That is until my Dad said, instead of the animals, why don't we name it after the bog, and call it Bog Water? At first, I have to admit, I thought it was a good joke, but nothing we would ever seriously consider. Who would drink something called BogWater? But he wouldn't let it drop, and it got funnier and funnier every time he brought it up.
What really changed it for me was when we had another strategy session over another fish that got away, and decided that we would specialize in all natural beer: all malt, certified organic, spring water, yadda yadda.
When we came back to BogWater, this time I threw the words All Natural in front. "All Natural Bog Water..." Now I loved it! It was funny, offputting at first, but intruiging at the same time. I loved it so much, I started throwing the All Natural phrase in front of everything I saw: "All Natural picnic table!" "All Natural "[insert objectionable incest reference here]!" and then all of a sudden... "Beau's All Natural Brewing Co."
Sometime in future blogs I'll write about other neat stuff about Bog Water: how we decided on the actual make up of the beer, how we got the bogmyrtle harvested (let's just say it wasn't easy), and how our brewer Matt had to develop a balanced beer using a wild-growing herb that had no commercial references to draw from.... but that's... another story.
Cheers, Steve

re:Cutie Honey - Anno is back!
I just watched re:Cutie Honey - anime directed by Anno Hideyaki, who didn't direct any anime since Karekano (6years ago)
re:CutieHoney is based on old cutie honey series..... it kinda makes me feel like I'm watching original CH made in 1970s lol..... story is almost same, +Anno styled parody&hommage
if you think of 'Great Anno of Evangelion,' you will be disappointed. No SF/Mecha or deep, philosophical and psychological issues/storylines, but you will enjoy his high-quality anime =) great visuals/actions/scenes (FLCL+power puff? lol)
drawing is unique, sometimes I thought I was watching PowerPuffGirls o_O and this anime is very Ecchi... beware!
too bad that he didn't make SF anime like Gunbuster/Nadia/or Eva, but I'm really glad that he is back, and presenting a great anime 40 minutes just flew away!
now I have to wait a month for next episode .......

Re: Cutie Honey
Episode 1, Horie Yui as Kisaragi Honey. ^^
It seems there are other Cutie Honey series before but I haven't yet seen any of it. This is my first time watching this series, somehow alot of dirty jokes just like Austin Powers. ^^ The boobies missile joke almost killed me.
The begining wasn't really that impresive to me, but the scene Nat-chan took down all the bad guys on her own with bullets flying around was really cool, specially the background music it just perfect. ^^ Need more scene like that in animes. ^^

Question? Is anyone subbing this gem or like all the good ones on planet earth ppl just ignore it This is very 70's material from the colours, fashion, disco music, big hair and poor animation frame rate I like, rare to see a show with this much cheese and style pulled off well Liked the Doraemon and Get Smarty generation 1 handphone spoof.
Have to say this, Horie Yui makes a great Honey Kisaragi/cosplay mode Honey- just doesn't make too hot a Cutie Honey . She's still stuck on the flustered girl next door roles.

I've been waiting to see this! Anno also directed the Cutie Honey live action movie that just came out, so do we need to see the movie to understand the anime?
The original Cutie Honey anime series were all serious ecchi, so no surprise there. I like the style of this new series, looks cool.

So far it's been fun spotting the stuff being spoofed in the show. The pair of Masked Rider boys at the Comiket site were hillarious btw. And here I thought the tranformation scene in Puni Puni Poemi was sick

well, let me ask one thing first, does this "Anno is back!" mean the "Gunbuster and Nadia Anno" is back or the "Evangelion and Kare Kano Anno" is back? I hope it means the former one, since this is an OVA I hope Anno get enough budget not to go the "still images and black and white bands and inner talk all the time" route again

I haven't seen it yet. (Waiting for it to be subbed.) Still, I think it is safe to say that he will have a large budget. Cute Honey is classic and it has way too many fans for them to skimp on the budget.
Now if only someone would take it upon themselves to sub "Cute Honey Flash" since the VHS subs ended at the first season...

Re: Cutie Honey!
I just finished watching the recent fansub, and this may be the most entertaining new anime of the year. I was laughing and smiling throughout, and the animation and style is just wild, it kinda reminds me of Powerpuff Girls or Hanna Barbera with a more, ahem, mature edge.
Kudos to Anno and his directing genius for finally making me like one of Go Nagai's works, and getting me interested in seeing the original Cutie Honey now. Also, great job by the fansubbers -- I usually don't like flashy karaoke, but the ED was really well done and kept that style. Thank you, you guys rock.
Anyway, it's really too bad this is only going to three volumes, though I'm sure the animation would suffer if they stretched it to a full series.

The pair of Masked Rider boys at the Comiket site were absolutely the worst bad tasted scene ever. x_x
Imo it wasn't funny.
I don't like the fact that Anno ridiculised anime's fan, I'm sorry for not give reason, but I'm very bad at English.
BTW I don't like Anno, I'm sorry

From your sign i can see that you are a Hideaki Anno Lover (^_^), but i think that as a director he is very skilled, and every work he made is filled with "class" (i cant think of any mediocre anime directed by Anno) and is something "new" respect to others (Gunbuster is different from Nadia that is different from Evangelion that is different from Kareshi Kanojo that is different from Cutie Honey).
I'm very happy that Anno is back to anime... so i can view some visually great works!

I watched this one with the thought that it's cliched 70's era title given a rather unique spin by a director capable of bringing near anyone from the start to end [no matter how cop-out bad] in his fables. IMO, he's done more justice to a successful franchise [original history+era references were spot on] than the last few blokes who attempted to revive this old girl so credit where it's due.
Still think when the girl broke some of the Golden Laws of anime was classic.

Raynauds phenomenon is a condition in which cold temperatures or strong emotions cause blood vessel spasms. This blocks blood flow to the fingers, toes, ears, and nose.
Raynauds phenomenon can be linked to other conditions. This is called secondary Raynauds phenomenon. Most people with the condition are over age 30.
Common causes are:
- Diseases of the arteries (such as
atherosclerosisand Buergers disease)
- Drugs that cause narrowing of arteries (such as amphetamines, certain types of beta-blockers, some cancer drugs, certain drugs used for migraine headaches)
- Arthritis and autoimmune conditions (such as
scleroderma, Sjogren syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus)
- Repeated injury or usage (such as from typing, playing the piano, or heavy use of hand tools)
- Smoking
Frostbite Thoracic outlet syndrome
Raynauds phenomenon canalso occur without another cause. This is called primary Raynauds phenomenon. It most often begins in people younger than age 30.
Strong emotions or exposure to the cold bring on the changes.
- First,the fingers, toes, ears, or nose to become white, then turn blue.
- When blood flow returns, the area becomes red and then later returns to normal color.
- The attacks may last from minutes to hours.
People with primary Raynauds phenomenon have problems in the same fingers on both sides. Most people do not have much pain.
People with Raynauds phenomenon that is due to other medical conditions are more likely to have pain or tingling in the fingers. The pain is rarely severe. Ulcers may form on the affected fingers if the attacks are very bad.
Exams and Tests
Your health care provider can often detect the condition by doing a physical exam and asking you questions.
Tests that may be done to confirm the diagnosis include:
Vascular ultrasound
- Cold stimulation test for Raynauds phenomenon
Blood tests may be done to diagnose arthritic and autoimmune conditions that may cause Raynauds phenomenon.
Taking these steps may help control Raynauds phenomenon:
- Stop smoking. Smoking causes blood vessels to narrow even more.
- Avoid caffeine.
- Avoid taking medicines that cause blood vessels to tighten or spasm.
- Keep the body warm. Avoid exposure to cold in any form. Wear mittens or gloves outdoors and when handling ice or frozen food. Avoid getting chilled, which may happen after any active recreational sport.
- Wear comfortable, roomy shoes and wool socks. When outside, always wear shoes.
Your health care provider may prescribe medicines to relax the walls of the blood vessels. These include topical nitroglycerin cream that you rub on your skin, calcium channel blockers, sildenafil (Viagra), and ACE inhibitors.
It is vital to treat the condition causing Raynauds phenomenon.
Outlook (Prognosis)
The outcome varies. It depends onthe cause of the problem and how bad it is.
Possible Complications
Gangreneor skin ulcersmay occur if an artery becomes completely blocked. This problem is more likely in people who also have arthritis or autoimmune conditions.
- Fingers may become thin and tapered with smooth shiny skin and nails that grow slowly. This due to the poor blood flow to the areas.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if:
- You have a history of Raynauds phenomenon and the affected body part (arm, hand, leg, foot, or other part) becomes infected or develops a sore.
- Your fingers change color and you do not know the cause.
- Your fingers or toes turn black or the skin breaks.
- You have a sore on the skin of your feet or hands which does not heal.
- You have a fever, swollen or painful joints, or skin rashes.
