I assume you already red Communication with demons article so you know what to expect, now we can move on to some details.
Invocation is the main technique of summoning demons used by satanists and demonolators. Before discussing details, let's see what invocation is and how does it differs from evocation.
An invocation (from the Latin verb invocare "to call on, invoke, to give") is a magickal act in which we invite (politely) a spiritual entity to come. Invocation can take also a form of a prayer. During that process we open ourselves to spiritual energy of an entity, allowing for natural, unrestricted communication, exchange of energies, sometimes merging of consciousnesses. If a circle is created during ritual (not always), it is used for balancing of energies, creating a suitable environment for magician and summoned entity. Both are within circle.
An invocation suggests: free, unrestricted exchange, politeness, respect, closeness, made on positive emotions.
An evocation (from Latin word evocatio was the "calling forth" or "summoning away") – is a magical act of commanding, forcing, threatening (with names and symbols – usually of Christianity) spiritual entity. Circle is created here every time to protect magician from summoned entity/energy and to bound, restrict entity within it. Magician is in that case outside the circle, demon inside.
An evocation suggests: fear, restriction, forceful domination based on negative emotions.
Remember, old grimoires are written from christian point of view so all rituals there are evocations. Satanists don't use them but there is no problem with using such references, information and others to transform them into your invocation ritual.
An invocation is most natural method of summoning demons (or any entity) and in opposition to evocation, it doesn't create unnecessary tension and boundaries, which restrict flow of an energy. An evocation on the other hand requires a lot of energy and results are weak in comparison to opposite method. An invocation instead is or could be very simple and powerful. Because of that evocation isn't only used by satanists to summon demons, but is also used by Christians or christian occultists to summon angels. There is simply no better technique that yields such results. Satanists don't have to protect themselves from demons so they can summon demons as easily as christian occultists angels.
The catch by the method of invocation in case of demons is, you need to let go completely of christian dualistic beliefs and notion of demons, otherwise your subconscious convictions cause unpleasant results. So you need to have complete satanic beliefs, positive attitude toward Satan and demons, then you will be able to work safely and receive satisfactory results.
There are several ways of performing invocation:
1) An invocation ritual
This is most complicated method but it is recommended for newbies who begin their journey through theistic satanism and/or demonoltry. It is also used by more advanced practitioners during celebration rites or by more special occasions, or if believed that this is the most proper way to do it. Below I place an exemplary, relatively simplistic ritual (for beginners) proposed by the TG (Traditional Demonolators) from demonolatry.org.
Every proper ritual has 3 phases: a beginning, a body ritual, an end.
a) Beginning – Chose a proper place, clean it so you would feel that this is not an ordinary occasion. Prepare all needed ritual utensils. Place four candles north, east, south, west (could be of any color, although I prefer black ones, but you can have one of each corresponding color) on each quarters of the circle. Altar is in the middle (more or less) of the circle, directed north or any direction you find suitable for that occasion.
When you are ready, begin north invoking earth energy by calling on earth elemental demon of your choosing, for example Belial. Take deep breaths, relax mentally and physically. Take dagger/athame/stick/finger, point it upwards (at the sky) and draw in front of you ZD sigil as shown above on the picture, visualizing energy lines creating the symbol, reciting at the same time enn: Lirach Tasa Vefa Wehlic, Belial. You can repeat the enn three times. Imagine earth, its energy, feeling, entering the circle, creating it. Then you turn east and invoke air energy by calling upon Lucifer (or any air elemental demon of your choosing). Repeat previous step using Lucifer's enn: Renich Tasa Uberaca Biasa Icar, Lucifer. Then visualize air energy, its feeling, entering the circle and creating it. Correspondingly you do the same south for fire (Flereous – Ganic Tasa fubin, Flereous.) and west for water (Leviathan – Jedan Tasa hoet naca, Leviathan.). In the center invoke Satan (Tasa reme laris Satan) as fifth element, the spirit, combining and balancing all elements together. Then you invoke chosen demon in the middle using his/her enn in similar way as by elements.
b) Body ritual – That's up to you, depends on what you want to achieve. You can write down your wishes, burn them, channel demon, draw picture/sigil or burn one, dance, sing, meditate, work with energy, visualize, have sex, make sacrifice, etc.
c) End – Thank demon and all other elemental demons for being present and hearing you out, say goodbye, extinguish candles with fingers or candle extinguished (don't blow off!).
For demonic enns see this article.
It's good to write your all impressions, feelings and thoughts down. They may vary strongly, no ritual is the same. Depending on your focus and sensibility, you can achieve full, clear contact or slight, unclear impressions, in such case don't worry. You will succeed with patience and motivation. Don't try too hard. A ritual should be serious but also fun! Be creative. Your attitude must be light, only then you will be able to hear, sense demons. Ask them that you want to have clear answers and for the confirmation if you have doubts, it may come in few days or quicker.
Many advanced magick users do rituals and create circle differently. Instead 4 points circle (based on square) you can base it on pentagram or triangle. Some practitioners report that the energy of shapes does matter here so a square offers very stable energy, a circle a balanced one, a triangle very intense one (don't recommended for beginners). You can have shapes within shapes so for example four point circle encompassing triangle based altar (points of a figure are made by candles). With experience and confidence you can create your own rituals which work the best.
Of course it's good to follow general rules of ritual magick here. So for example: be rested. If you are exhausted, schedule ritual for different time (although there are some rituals that require to be fatigued mentally, probably because mind easier detaches itself from physical then, however control and focus drops down). Don't eat too much and shortly before ritual (small fast could be a good idea if you are not distracted by hunger, otherwise light meal is the best way to go; sometimes food sacrifice is a part of a ritual – every rule has some exceptions), heavy stomach distracts, also digestion holds our energy more in physical range, so spiritual experiences may be harder to obtain if you are new to this. It's good to darken the ritual space and let be lighted mostly by candles, but rituals can be also done with full light, loud music. Whatever takes you in proper mood.
2) A prayer – could be enough to initiate a contact – yes! it is sometimes so simple! Prayer could be also a part of body ritual. The form and words of a prayer are up to you.
3) A simple mental invitation – With time, experience or talent you may receive connection with chosen demon at any moment easily just by asking him/her in thoughts or even just by thinking about him/her! Or you may have easiness to connect in such way with certain demons while with others you must take more work. Some demons are easier, some harder to get in touch with, depends on person, there is no rule here. For example, when starting a tarot session I ask Vassago to come and I ask for clarity and accuracy of reading. I receive message that he is there, then I begin, as simple as that! Sometimes I am asked about certain demon and immediately I hear this demon answering me, I receive additional information mentally. It's not always like that but it happens. Understand that with time communication with demons will be coming easily and naturally, if it isn't already.
4) If the above mentioned methods of summoning demons aren't doing anything for you, you may try a different one (as I said, there are many ways of obtaining the same result). Read my article about Satanic Astral Temple for more info!
Remember, demons can hear you mentally unrestricted so you can't hide anything. But they don't have ego like we do so they don't judge, don't react exactly like people. They may seemingly sound and react humanly at first glance, but they don't get angry, resentful, scared, jealous. If they do, then you are not talking with demon only with lesser energy (residue after living person) or there is a chance you're making it up… However, demons may give you kick in some way. It is known for some to experience small electric discharges if you violate the agreement (like: you oblige to drop smoking yet you had moment of weakness) to make you remember. They are not fairies 😉 so they can be blunt.
When speaking to demons, there is no reason to worry about wording, demons read our intentions and understand our thoughts and emotions better then we do. And they do have sense of humor. So relax, let go of fear and allow demons to merge with your energy. In time and frequent contacts with demons you may notice you have changed and behave more like them.
How to choose a proper demon? There are few methods:
– Study the literature, take all demons that sound helpful with your matter and analyze your feelings about his/her name, enn, sigil. Choose one that appeals to you the most. If you still have no clue, try to contact with each of them. The most proper one creates immediate, strong, clear connection, creating feeling of excitement.
– Trust your feelings. If you are fascinated in certain demon, there is a high chance he/she represents things in which you are strong and… weak (great chance to learn). Or you may just know which one is best for the occasion.
– Demon chooses you. You feel very strong attraction or something calls you, you feel personal energy calling for your attention. You find clues, events, "coincidences" that raise your interest in a demon.
– Ask mentally, which demon would be most suitable in given situation and wait for response. When it comes, ask for name. In that way often you meet demons that are not mentioned in literature. Don't worry. There are thousands of thousands of thousands demons and more. In literature we meet only fraction of them so it's not surprising if a "new" demon answers.

Printing Process:
Thermography - The process involves heat that joins ink and a resin-like powder together. The fusion of the materials results in the appearance of raised letters. This printing process is fast-becoming the most popular choice for invitations, because of its value and quality of appearance. This is the most affordable print process if you are looking for classic, elegant "raised" printing.
Letterpress - Letterpress continues to be one of the hottest trends in stationery. It's been around for hundreds and hundreds of years. Letterpress is an ancient printing technique that involves printing words or designs with ink while simultaneously debossing the image into thick, soft paper. The letterpress look is elegant, stylish, high-end and nothing short of stunning.
Engraving - The paper is placed on the press face down above the inked plate. It is then printed by pressure coming down on the back of the sheet while the front of the sheet meets with the plate. This "sandwich" effect creates the raised lettering and bruise on the back of the printed paper that are both classic features of engraver.
Foil Stamping - Printing process that fuses foil to paper. A thin layer of foil is pressed between a piece of paper and a heated die. The image on the die cuts and heats the foil, binding it to the paper. You might be thinking of mylar ballons when you think of the word "foil". But don't be fooled. You can find many matte-ink colors such as white or cream, which produces a gorgeous invitation.
Mygatsby was one of the pioneers of the "stacked" enclosure cards! We created these cards specifically so these accessory cards would complement your invitation stylishly yet with function.
Small Enclosure Card: 4.25"x4.50"
RSVP card w/ envelope: 4.25"x5.50"
Large Enclosure Card: 4.25"x6.50"
Additional Matching Accessories
The first ink color you choose is included in the price of your order (invitation, accessory cards and envelopes). You may choose up to 2 ink colors per printed item (i.e. you can choose black & espresso for your invitation, and then gold & silver for your RSVP card, etc.). If you use the same 2 ink colors throughout your entire invitation ensemble, you will only be charged once, across all of your printed pieces (i.e. if you choose red & gold for your invitation, RSVP card and outer envelope, you will only be charged once for that 2nd ink color).
Pricing for each additional ink color is as follows:
*NOTE: If you have selected accessory cards, you may see 1 additional ink color charge in your total. Don't worry, you can adjust these ink colors accordingly to your preferences when you start customizing your accessory cards.

Hellos to all:
I am fascinated by how people 'fall' into zen buddhism as a practice. Just because, in my growing up, it was very scarce. When I was in college, and working at a vegetarian restaurant (these were the early days of vegetarianism and we were called vegetarian because we served no red meat, but did serve fish and chicken--there was only one other vegetarian restaurant in all of Rhode Island at the time and they were macrobiotic and had an extensive garden... But let me not stray from my zen beginnings: the dishwasher at the restaurant I worked at liked how I stacked my bus tubs--he lived at the Providence Zen Center, and invited me to his wedding, so I got to see a zendo for the first time. I didn't quite know what to make of it all. Later, he gave me my first 'zen' bookropping Ashes on the Buddha: The Teaching of Zen Master Seung Sahn. It took a long time from point A to point B--first exposure to actually attending a zendo, practicing zazen, becoming part of a sangha--about 10 years--and one thing has led to another ... but I credit that dishwasher, David, at Amara's Restaurant, for starting me on what I will never come to the end of!
I'd love to hear other Treeleafer's stories of how it all began..., and of course...it didn't begin then, it begins now, and now and now and now...but you know what I mean!

(Subtitle: "Goofy Antichoice Analogies")
When it comes to their Magnificent Obsession, antichoicers love them some delusional, twisted and tortured analogies. In that spirit they've compared a woman's right to make her own medical decisions to everything from slavery to the Holocaust to a broken TV set to a parrot in a cage (no, really).
Our deranged friend Stephen "M312" Woodworth, still trying to justify the Parliamentary time and money wasted on his little fapfest, tries again with yet another goofy analogy — something to do with planes and hot air balloons. This *motivated* fern hill to complete a project that's been in the works for awhile: the greatest hits from the Lame Abortion Analogy Hall of Fame.
I've got one more, presented to me like a intricately gift-wrapped turd a couple of weeks ago in the comments section of an article at Macleans. I give you "The Polaroid Picture of The Deer That Ran Away" analogy:
Umm err yeah okay:
Just thought I'd put that one out there and, umm, see what develops.

I Heart Cooked Food
After seeing the Veganomicon's Curry Tofu on Julie's Kind Kitchen blog a few days ago, I knew I had to have it:
I'm going through a bit of a curry phase right now. Yesterday, I had Curried Carrot Salad and the day before I had a frozen Bombay Curry veggie burger. In keeping with the theme, I marinated some firm tofu overnight in this tasty mixture of curry powder, cumin, veggie broth, and other stuff. Then I tossed it on the grill for a few minutes. Totally delightful! I love the grill marks!
On the side, I veganized my Granny's Squash Casserole:
It's a baked dish with brown rice, yellow summer squash from the farmer's market, soymilk, and other seasonings. The recipe's going in my cookbook, so I'm not gonna divulge. I'm pretty proud of this one. I swear it tastes just like the non-vegan casserole my Granny makes.
I don't have a lot of experience with baking raw brown rice in the oven, so I was worried it wouldn't turn out. Her recipe calls for white rice, so I had to adjust the oven temperature a bit to compensate for the longer cooking time. I also covered the dish with aluminum foil.
After an hour in the oven, the rice was still hard and I had a mini-freakout ... partly because I was afraid it wouldn't cook correctly and also because an hour had gone by and I was freakin' starving! But her recipe says to cook for 1 1/2 hours and so I waited another 30 minutes. Like magic, the rice cooked to a perfect creaminess (thanks to the soymilk). It reminds me of risotto, only baked.
By the way, some people have asked about my cookbook in the comments section. Basically, I'm putting together a cookbook of vegan Southern and country cuisine. So far, I've got a little over 100 recipes developed (honestly haven't counted in awhile), and my goal is 250. I don't have a publisher yet, but I'll cross that road when I come to it. And I'll eventually need testers, but I've get that side of things organized first.

oh YES!
Sign me up for being a tester when the time comes. I'm a big ol' lover of Southern food, and of veganizing old family recipes. I've got a lot of family roots in North Carolina, and every time we go there my interest in veganizing Southern food is re-kindled. I was there a week or two ago, and I was actually thinking of you. I just love your blog and how you keep on cookin' southern even as a vegan. It's rad.

That casserole looks super good! And a perfect way to use up the abundance of summer squash around. (I keep somehow ending up with zucchini through no fault of my own.)
Also, I am totally down for being a tester when you are at that stage!

And I'm so excited for your cookbook!
- July 10, 2008 at 1:54 PM
I love casseroles! Oh so much! I make tons of brown rice casseroles and they always work with no problems, but they do often have to go about 1.5hrs and have lots of liquid- they are great to throw in the oven after a long run and by the time I'm showered, stretched and rested it's ready!

I think I've said it before, but I totally want to be a tester for you when the time comes. I'm a semi-expert on southern food :)
The brown rice and squash casserole sounds great, like something you'd get at a cafeteria-style place. And nice grill marks on the tofu!

I love summer squash but I guess I'll have to wait for your cookbook! In the meantime, though, I have to ask: was the squash in the baking dish the whole 1.5 hours? It looks so bright yellow fresh and firm in the photo, not like something that's been in an oven for 1.5 hours!

I LOVE CURRY! This looks delicious. Pretty picture!

Last night I had dinner with some of my most literary friends, and we had an interesting conversation on the subject of: Are we supposed to take seriously the reading lists in books like 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die? One of my companions — who used to be the top editor at an esteemed imprint — argued that we weren't. He said that he thought editors published those lists to spark arguments, not to make a definite statement. And he may be right. But I suspect that whether or not editors intend it, a lot of people do take the lists seriously.
A new discussion will begin Tuesday on the online book club that started on this site on June 1 www.oneminutebookreviews.wordpress.com/2008/06/01. And this might be a good topic to explore there: Did you ever buy a book because it had turned up on a lot of those "best of" lists (or even on one list)? What was your reaction?
You can also use the comments section of Tuesday's post to bring up other books you've enjoyed recently (or would like to warn others away from), whether or not they've been reviewed on this site.

You know how I wrote yesterday about five books I was planning to read this week while dog-sitting for literary friends? Those books are going to have to wait a day or two. My friends left behind a copy of David Wroblewski's first novel, The Story of Edgar Sawtelle (Ecco, 562 pp., $29.95) www.edgarsawtelle.com. And although I've been reading the over-the-top reviews of this bestseller for weeks, I'd somehow missed that – to oversimplify – this is a canine version of Hamlet in which a) Ophelia is a dog and b) the story is told partly from "Ophelia"'s point of view. Is Wroblewski's novel closer to Shakespeare or Millie's Book, the book former first lady Barbara Bush wrote in the voice of a White House spaniel? I will sort this out soon on One-Minute Book Reviews. To avoid missing this and other reviews, please bookmark this site or subscribe to the RSS feed.

NEW YORK (AP) – In one photo, a woman is on all fours, presumably picking something up, her posterior pressed against a glass window. Another photo shows a couple in bathrobes, their feet touching beneath a table. And there is one of a man, in jeans and a T-shirt, lying on his side as he takes a nap.
In all the photos, taken by New York City artist Arne Svenson from his second-floor apartment, the faces are obscured or not shown. The people are unidentifiable.
But the residents of a glass-walled luxury residential building across the street had no idea they were being photographed and they never consented to being subjects for the works of art that are now on display – and for sale – in a Manhattan gallery.
'I don't feel it's a violation in a legal sense but in a New York, personal sense there was a line crossed,' said Michelle Sylvester, who lives in the residential building called the Zinc Building, which stands out with its floor-to-ceiling windows in a neighborhood of cobblestone streets and old, brick warehouse buildings.
Svenson's apartment is directly across the street, just to the south, giving him a clear view of his neighbors by simply looking out his window.
'I think there's an understanding that when you live here with glass windows, there will be straying eyes but it feels different with someone who has a camera,' Sylvester said.
Svenson's show, 'The Neighbors,' opened last Saturday at the Julie Saul Gallery in Chelsea, where about a dozen large prints are on sale for up to $7,500. His exhibit is drawing a lot of attention, not for the quality of the work, but for the manner in which it was made.
Svenson did not respond to a request for comment from The Associated Press, but says in material accompanying the exhibit that the idea for it came when he inherited a telephoto lens from a friend, a birdwatcher who recently died.
'For my subjects there is no question of privacy; they are performing behind a transparent scrim on a stage of their own creation with the curtain raised high,' Svenson says in the gallery notes. 'The Neighbors don't know they are being photographed; I carefully shoot from the shadows of my home into theirs.'
That explanation has done little to satisfy some residents of the Zinc Building, where a penthouse was once listed at nearly $6 million. In an email circulating among the building's owners and renters this week, a resident whose apartment was depicted in Svenson's photographs suggested legal recourse against the artist.
'I am not an expert in this area of the law, but I do think we may have some rights and the ability to stop this,' the email reads. 'I love art, but find this to be an outrageous invasion of privacy.'
Civil rights lawyer Norman Siegel said that according to New York civil rights law, there may be a way for Svenson's subjects to challenge him in court but the case will depend entirely on context.
'The question for the person who's suing is, if you're not identifiable, then where's the loss of privacy?' he said. 'These issues are a sign of the times. How do you balance the right of privacy vis-a-vis the right of artistic expression?'
Linda Darcia, an exchange student from Colombia living with a family on the sixth floor facing Svenson's studio, said she had no idea whether or not she was depicted in any of the pieces but she was anxious to go to the gallery and find out.
'I'm not really upset about it because that's his job,' she said. 'But maybe he should have asked before the gallery opens. Everybody's talking about it.'

Lyft Juno
Lyft, Inc., a California-based company, develops and markets a mobile application that lets people hire vehicles. Its services include motorized scooters, bicycle-sharing, rental cars, food delivery, and bike rentals. The company has an office in San Francisco and operates within 644 U.S. and 12 Canadian cities. Users can request a car, scooter, or bike from the Lyft app to get to your destination as quickly as possible.
After selecting a car to purchase, users can pay using a credit card or debit card tied with a checking account. To pay with a credit or debit, users must first provide their name and a profile picture. They also have the option of adding more detail about themselves and the destination, such as the number of passengers and the number of dogs. In addition, they can view a driver's photograph, license plate, and other information that will make them feel comfortable with the rider.
Although most riders prefer Lyft or Uber, each company has its own advantages and disadvantages. Both companies are competitive in price and Lyft is safer than Uber. Lyft has a lower chance of scamming passengers. Lyft can be used if you have a valid credit or debit card. As long as you are comfortable sharing personal information and your location with the driver, it won't be a problem.
Another disadvantage of Lyft is the limited availability of its Rewards program. This program was created for people with a business profile. It was meant to make expense claims more straightforward. To join, you must have a business profile and have at least five business rides. After that, you could receive a $5 credit for personal rides and upgrade your car. This program is only available in selected cities and is only available by invitation. You must request an invitation in order to join the program, but it is worth a try.
Lyft requires you to create an account in order to get the best out of it. If you're already using the service, you'll need to sign up for the app and sign in with your UF email address. Your account will automatically be updated with the discount when you sign up. You will be automatically credited with the discount for all eligible rides. Follow the steps below to get the most out of this program.
To redeem a Lyft promo code, go to the Lyft website and click on the link. You will be taken to the promotions page. Once you've signed in, you can enter the code by selecting the menu option "Promos" and then clicking on it. If the code is valid, the discount applied to your account. You can combine up to four promotional codes at once. After the first month, you can try another one.
Lyft is a free app that allows you to access the best benefits of this program. Sign in to get the discount. Lyft offers a free app that you can download from their website. You can then sign up for the program to receive the discount. All new users will be automatically enrolled. This program will not expire at the end of the month.
Getting a Lyft ride is very simple. Simply download the app and then send the credits to your mobile contact. After they complete the referral process, they will be given a free ride. It's that easy. Lyft currently offers over 20,000 mobile apps. These applications can boost onboarding conversion rates by up to 180%. This is a great way to earn some extra cash without driving too much.
Lyft is the best way to get to your destination quickly if you're in a rush. Its app provides drivers with the most up-to-date information. The app allows passengers to choose the vehicle they wish to use and the driver will confirm the booking. By using this application, you'll be able to get to your destination quickly and easily.

What Is an Abscess?
An abscess is the body's way of trying to heal from an infection. Abscesses form after bacteria, fungi, or other germs enter the body — usually through an open wound like a cut — and cause an infection.
An abscess might appear on the skin, under the skin, in a tooth, or even deep inside the body. On top of the skin, an abscess may look like an unhealed wound or a pimple. Underneath the skin, it may create a swollen bump. A skin abscess might hurt and feel warm when you touch it.
It's easier to tell if you have a skin abscess because you can see and touch it. But when someone gets an abscess in another part of the body, there will still be clues that something is wrong. With a tooth abscess, for example, people will feel pain even though they can't see the abscess.
What Causes an Abscess?
Abscesses can form wherever the body is fighting off an infection. For example, a skin abscess can appear when germs get into the body through an opening in the skin (like a cut, insect sting, or burn).
Most germs don't belong in a healthy body and the immune system knows it: It's the immune system's job to be on the lookout for infection. After figuring out that something is wrong, it sends in the troops (otherwise known as white blood cells) to destroy whatever's causing the infection. Some of these white blood cells will end up in pus, which also includes stuff like dead skin and dead germs.
The body considers pus garbage and will try to get rid of it. But when pus collects in an abscess, it may not be able to drain out. As pus builds up, it can press against the skin and surrounding tissue, causing pain.
Some abscesses are caused by an irritant like an injected medication that was not completely absorbed. Since they're not caused by infection, these kinds of abscesses are called "sterile" abscesses. Sterile abscesses aren't as common as infected abscesses, but they can happen on occasion.
How Are Abscesses Treated?
Most abscesses can be managed at home. If you think you have a skin abscess, avoid touching, pushing, popping, or squeezing it. Doing that can spread the infection or push it deeper inside the body, making things worse.
Try using a warm compress to see if that opens up the abscess so it can drain. You can make a compress by wetting a washcloth with warm — not hot — water and placing it over the abscess for several minutes. Do this a few times a day, and wash your hands well before and after applying the washcloth.
If the abscess opens on its own and drains, and the infection seems to clear up in a couple of days, your body should heal on its own. If it doesn't, it's time to call your doctor's office.
If you have tooth pain and you suspect there may be an infection, call your dentist.
When Should I Call a Doctor?
Sometimes, an abscess needs a doctor's care. If you notice any of these problems, call your doctor:
- A skin abscess becomes more painful, swollen, and red.
- Red streaks develop around the infected area of skin.
- You have pain or discomfort inside your body.
- You have a fever or chills.
If a doctor thinks you have an abscess, he or she will decide if it needs to be drained or if it can be treated another way, like with antibiotics.
If an abscess needs to be drained, the doctor will decide if it's best to pull out the pus using a needle (called aspiration) or to make a small cut in the abscess with a scalpel so the pus can drain out.
For a skin abscess, the doctor will probably use numbing medications before draining an abscess so it's not too painful. After the doctor drains the abscess, he or she may pack it with gauze. The gauze will soak up drainage and help the abscess heal.
An abscess that is deep inside the body might require surgery. This may mean staying in the hospital for a while so doctors and nurses can be sure the person heals properly.
How Can I Feel Better?
Your doctor will give you instructions about how to take care of an abscess so it heals properly. Your doctor also might tell you to avoid specific activities until the abscess heals. You may need to take antibiotics, and you (or your lucky mom or dad!) might have to change a bandage regularly.
If your doctor prescribes antibiotics, take all the medicine until it's gone — even if you start feeling better.
If you have a skin abscess, take steps so you don't spread the infection to anyone else. Don't share anything that's touched your abscess (like washcloths, towels, athletic equipment, or razors).
Even after a visit to the doctor, you'll still need to keep an eye on the abscess. Let your doctor know right away if it gets worse or if you develop a fever or chills.
If you have a skin abscess, your doctor might want to do tests to find out if you have something called MRSA, a kind of bacteria that can cause serious skin infections. MRSA infections need special treatment because they are resistant to many kinds of antibiotics.
Can Abscesses Be Prevented?
Good hygiene is the best way to avoid infection. Keep cuts and wounds clean, dry, and covered to protect them from germs. Also, don't share clothing, towels, razors, or bed linens with anyone else. When these items get dirty, wash them separately in very hot water.
Wash your hands well and often using plain soap and water for at least 20 seconds each time. It's OK to use alcohol-based instant hand sanitizers or wipes (the kind that you can pick up at a drugstore) if you're not near any soap and water.

FIRST PERSON: Epic nights in Melbourne with Springsteen shows 2 and 3
Note: Friend of Blogness Iain Muir is attending multiple shows — his first ever — during Springsteen's Australian tour, and has offered to share his impressions here. Below, the report from Melbourne, nights two and three. (You can view the full setlists here and here.)
Night two was much different compared to night one. The nerves didn't really kick in until we got into the pit. We noticed the lights came on about 20 minutes before Bruce came out, so I and the people around me thought one of two things: It's going to be LOHAD or Badlands, and we were correct (kinda).
From the get go, everything was crazy. The crowd was much better than night one I found. But I guess when you open with a song as historic and upbeat as Badlands, it's too hard not to get pumped up.
The girl who had the Cadillac Ranch sign was right beside me and she was ecstatic he played it. It was also her first show, and you could tell it was something special for her and something that she will never forget. She was also a re head and Bruce acknowledged her once again during Red Headed Woman. Was fun watching her night unfold, as things just seemed to get better and better for her.
I was thrilled personally to hear Downbound Train. One of three songs not to make an appearance off BITUSA at that point (the others being I'm Goin' Down and My Hometown), and it was great. That opening riff is a killer and one of my favourite pieces of Bruce's music. An intense performance that held the crowd perfectly.
The double shot of Spirit and City works perfectly. As City didn't get a run on Sunday, and Sunday being my first show, it was my first time hearing it. And boy, I am glad I did. The way Bruce can silence a room of 15,000 people is astounding. The atmosphere completely changes once the intros begin, and when he said "I'm in a sad mood tonight," a few people around me said "awww." Then he went on to "Are we missin' anybody?" I got a little teary eyed and thought it was a great moment over the three nights. He certainly knows how to pay his respects and makes fans feel like they knew both Danny and Clarence too. An extremely fitting and moving tribute.
Shuffle was again new and a whole heap of fun. Ted, a 350-odd-show veteran, said it was one of the best versions of Shuffle he has seen. I thought it was great fun — the band just goes for it and jams out to the max. Watching Max and Everett "duel" is great fun too. Everett's congo drum has an awesome sound and watching his expressions during the duel is a joy to behold.
Joad again soared and Morello takes it to another level. Thunder Road is just one of those epic concert moments you won't understand unless you're there. I think everyone in the pit sang it word for word. Incredible sight and experience. Finally Rosie came out and everyone just went ballistic. I now understand everyone's joy in hearing Rosie live.
After talking to many of the veterans, and even "rookies," the consensus was that night three was going to be epic. And boy oh boy did it deliver.
He came out with a different guitar and I knew it was a song we hadn't heard. "Long Walk Home" began and straight into "Radio Nowhere," you got the vibe Bruce was sorta pissed off. My Love soared and the place was on fire. The energy in the pit was electric and it wasn't going to be turned off anytime soon. Everyone was feeding off each other's energy and things just got better and better.
There has been one song that everyone has been dying to hear – Flood. The roar of appreciation from people in the pit was fantastic. It is definitely one of the most intense things I have ever witnessed in concert. Just absolutely flawless. His guitar was about to catch fire, it was that hot. Absolutely brilliant.
The triumvirate of Candy's Room, Youngstown and Murder Inc. was out of this world. It all flowed perfectly. It was like it got more intense as each of those three songs ended. He kept taking it up a notch. Youngstown was epic, just absolutely epic. His shriek at the end of Murder Inc. was awesome. Tom dominated and is definitely holding his own on stage.
Jungleland is literally the greatest thing I have seen in my entire 24 years of existence. As soon as Bruce signaled to Roy, I wept throughout the intro and the first two verses. It was just beautiful. Just absolute perfection. I have dreamed of hearing it live ever since I first heard it when I was 18. No amount of superlatives can do it justice. If you've heard it, you'll know what I am talking about. It is something you need to see to believe. Perfection in every essence of the word.
Night three blew everything out of the water.
Hanging Rock is the next stop on this unbelievable ride. Bring on more BOSS TIME!

I was reading Fast Company today, and it strikes me that one particular feature is missing from the bulk of library blogs; profiles of effective librarians. Sure we have lots of good product reviews to help with efficiency and lots of us write about our work flows, but not many of the super blogs out there aggregate these into profiles of the effective work habits of others. Tips and tricks to help power forward in library land.
That said, I'm going to downshift from an overview of library blogging into a product review of three to-do-list programs and apps to help you with your efficiency. Lists help, and these three programs help take lists to the digital level.
First, and my personal favorite is Do It Tomorrow. In addition to being a functional web application, it also comes in an applet form. Do it tomorrow functions as a digital representation of a moleskin notebook. Tasks for today are on one side, tasks for tomorrow are on the other. When the day changes tomorrows tasks move to today. Which is perfect if your just starting with time management. A two day span is a perfect way to think about things. The app itself is super functional, and until it stopped working with my Color Nook (running cyanogen mod 7.2) it was by far my favorite app. I've never found anything that approaches this app in terms of simplicity, quality and style. A new update fixed both the compatibility issues with my rooted Nook, and added cloud support (though I did have to turn off sound, but that was no big deal). Who's got two thumbs way up and loves Do It Tomorrow? This guy!
Then there's Wunderlist. Wunderlist is a beautiful and pretty functional app, which works across platforms and has cloud support. I have some slight interface problems on my 7" tablet, but I chalk that up to user error. While this is currently not my go to time management app, I think it's a solid choice in this category. My only real problem is that it doesn't sync with my Google account, which would make it really awesome.
Lastly, there's Astrid. Astrid is a cute app. It's not beautiful in the same way that Wunderlist or Do It Tomorrow are. Astrid aims to be the 4square of to do lists and if you have a bunch of friends into time management, or enjoy competing with efficiency experts this is definitely the app for you. It has pretty good functionality, a very decent widget, and it syncs with my Gmail, although that's mostly just log in and email reminders about important tasks. One drawback or plus depending on how you view it is that Astrid will remind you to work on a task as it gets closer to the due date. While these reminders are helpful, if you have a full list they do get a little bit annoying. Unfortunately none of the apps I've reviewed has the capability to sync with my google calendar which would be a truly awesome feature.
Finally, I want to talk a bit about the concept of efficiency itself. When I decided I wanted to write this post, I thought a lot about the role that business superhuman efficiency and functionality standards are beginning to play in our libraries. It's important to step back from your work and your stress and take some time to breath. Too often we expect people to work rigorously, and effectively, and quickly. I guess I wanted to make a point to remember humanity in your work, and in your model for what good work is. Human beings have failings. I think as a society we tell people that, failure isn't acceptable, entirely too much. People need to breath, you might too. Remember this is a time when it's ok to drop a ball or two, because it's also the time to learn how to pick them up. The key to being great is not the avoidance of failure, its learning from failures and having the perseverance to carry on.

At Tour, walking wounded win by soldiering on
AJACCIO, Corsica - Behind Jan Bakelants, the Belgian who rode with guts and guile to win Stage Two at the Tour de France, there were other smaller but no less impressive victories Sunday that don't get so widely noticed - by the race's riding wounded.
In other circumstances, logic would prescribe rest, recovery and TLC for the likes of Geraint Thomas, who was among the more badly beaten up of the dozen or so riders who slammed into the tarmac in a vicious high-speed pileup a day earlier in the frenetic end of Stage One.
But the moving circus that is the Tour waits for no man, even those with deep cuts, evil bruises or, like Thomas, teeth-grinding pain in his left hip that made it difficult for him to walk, let alone hold his place in the world's toughest bike race.
In other sports, players who pick up knocks generally get at least a few days to heal before the next game. But the Tour's injured are afforded no such luxury. For them, the choice is either to soldier on with their aches and pains, hoping for a better tomorrow, or be among the first to quit. Which, for many of them, isn't much of a choice at all.
So a whopping 17 minutes and 35 seconds after Bakelants gave the chasing pack the slip and got the stage win that, for now at least, also secured him the race leader's yellow jersey, Thomas hauled himself across the finishing line.
"It feels a bit like a win in itself," said the 27-year-old Welshman who rides for Sky, the team of Chris Froome, this year's favorite.
At 97 miles, the stage from the east to the west coast of Corsica, from Bastia to Ajaccio, both of them ports, was one of the shortest of this 100th Tour. But for Thomas, it felt "like an eternity."
Bakelants got to celebrate on the podium and share his joy.
"It's fantastic," the RadioShack team rider said.
Thomas just got to fight - make that suffer - for another day. From the field of 198 riders, just two finished behind Thomas. The other 195 were ahead.
He said Saturday's pileup is a bit of a blur.
"I remember just flipping straight over and, you know, just landing straight on my back," he said.
Froome's most dangerous rival for overall victory, two-time former champion Alberto Contador, was another of those caught in that crash. The Spaniard said he, too, was sore on Sunday, although he rode well - staying in the main pack that finished one second behind Bakelants.
"It was difficult to start off. There is pain in your whole body," Contador said. "You feel bad here, here and here," he said, pointing to his shoulder and elbow and hip.
Froome and other candidates for overall victory also were in Contador's group. So going into Monday's stage, the third and last on Corsica before the Tour crosses back onto the French mainland, the main contenders remain on an equal footing.
Froome, however, looks particularly fresh and strong. On the road into Ajaccio, the Briton made an impression and maybe scored a few psychological points by sprinting away from the pack for a while. It was a tactical move that perhaps would have impressed Ajaccio's most famous son, Napoleon Bonaparte, the wily military and political leader of France born there in 1769.
Froome said the burst of speed was merely to keep him safe and out of any more crashes. But with a smile, he added: "It's always good to keep people on their toes."
There were no smiles from his teammate, Thomas. He climbed gingerly off his bike. Later, sitting in a Team Sky car, he took an age to pull on fresh socks, wincing from the effort.
"The start was just unbelievable, just so much pain round here in my hip," he said. "Toward the end, you know, it definitely felt a lot better than at the start. But it was still really sore. It hurts."
An X-ray Saturday after the crash didn't show any break. To be sure, Thomas was taken for a scan after Sunday's stage.
The race doctor, Florence Pommerie, said she gave Thomas some painkillers as he rode Sunday. Bakelants completed the stage in 3 hours, 43 minutes, 11 seconds. The course featured four climbs, through spiky mountains with patches of snow and past villages clinging to hillsides.
"The wake-up the morning after a crash is tough. You have to get the carcass moving again," Pommerie said. "No one wants to fall and quit in the first few days."
Thomas' boss, Sky manager Dave Brailsford, said their hope is that Thomas will get better on the road, over the next three weeks to Paris. With only eight riders to support Froome, Brailsford doesn't want to lose one of them so early in the race.
"Basically you just hope that he can suffer enough in order to keep on going, which will give him time for the injury to heal. But it's a very fine line. You either aggravate it and make it worse or ... depending on the injury, it might be possible to make it better."
"These guys," Brailsford added, "won't quit unless there is something really, really badly wrong."

CharityChoice Gift Cards are recipient-designated charity gifts: a project of Special Kids Fund (501c3, EIN 58-2550249). Only the gift-recipient is entitled to designate the charity, which he/she may do at any time. If a card is attained by redeeming points earned in loyalty/incentive programs in order to use to donate to a charity, and not to be given as a gift; then the card-holder may redeem the card. Cards never lose value, nor expire. We always retain a reserve for honoring unredeemed cards. Purchases of gift cards are charity donations, that are 100% tax deductible at the time of purchase; and, as such, are non-refundable.
FEES: The funds are allocated from Special Kids Fund, usually quarterly (4 - 6 weeks following the ending), to the recipient's designated charity; deducting $0.50 per card [for cards $2 and up]+ 5% administrative fee and 3% credit card processing (used towards management of this nonprofit fundraising program, and towards our mission to benefit special needs children).
Note: Occasionally, a larger than 5% administrative fee may be required; depending upon how the card is purchased and the costs involved, e.g., third-party marketing.
REWARDS PROGRAMS: 10% total fee deducted for cards ordered through many rewards programs (includes all fees, marketing and program expenses).
Please note that unlike for-profit websites and charity portals, CharityChoice is run by a charitable organization with a distinct cause and mission, providing for special needs children. So using our service is worthwhile all around!

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - A man who held a 5-year-old boy hostage in an underground bunker for nearly a week before dying in a shootout with the FBI received "multiple gunshot wounds" to his body, a county coroner said Thursday.
Dale County Coroner Woodrow Hilboldt said he was allowed into the bunker in the southeastern Alabama community of Midland City on Wednesday evening. He pronounced 65-year-old Jimmy Lee Dykes dead at 8:58 p.m.
"He had multiple gunshot wounds," Hilboldt told The Associated Press. The coroner declined to say how many times Dykes had been shot or where the wounds were on his body. He said the body was taken to a state forensics laboratory in Montgomery for an autopsy.
The body was removed from the bunker Wednesday night, FBI agent Jason Pack said Thursday, hours after the FBI announced that it had found no more explosives on the property besides those that were discovered in a PVC pipe leading into the bunker and inside the bunker itself.
FBI Special Agent Paul Bresson said in an email late Wednesday that the technicians who scoured the 100-acre property in the days after the standoff ended had "completed their work and cleared the crime scene."
"No additional devices were found," he added.
Bresson said evidence-review teams are now sifting through the crime scene, a process that could take two to three more days. A shooting-review team from Washington also is reviewing the hostage-taking episode, which began Jan. 29 and ended Monday when Dykes was killed in a gunfight with the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team.
The team, which is the agency's full-time counterterrorism unit, raided the bunker and rescued the 5-year-old boy, FBI spokesman Jason Pack said. Trained in military tactics and outfitted with combat-style gear and weapons, the group was formed 30 years ago in preparation for the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles.
According to a U.S. official, about a dozen Navy Seabees, who specialize in naval construction, helped authorities build a mock-up of the bunker to plan the FBI assault. The official, who was not authorized to discuss the rescue effort, spoke Wednesday on condition of anonymity.
Hilboldt, who got a close look at the bunker Wednesday night, described it as being about 6 feet-by-8 feet with an 8-foot-high plywood ceiling. The ceiling contained a 2-foot-by-2-foot hatch for a door and a ladder extending to the floor from the opening, Hilboldt said. The interior was lined with concrete blocks and the bunker contained only "makeshift" furniture, he said.
"There wasn't much room," Hilboldt said, adding that the officers who stormed the bunker "did good with what they had to work with."
Hilboldt said the FBI already had removed many items from the bunker and conducted an inventory. He wouldn't go into details about what was still there, such as toys that had been delivered to the child or electronic equipment.
Authorities said the standoff began a week ago Tuesday when Dykes boarded a bus full of children and gunned down driver Charles Albert Poland Jr. as Poland sought to protect the 21 children on board.
According to officials, the gunman then seized the boy, whom law enforcement authorities have identified only by his first name, Ethan, and fled with his hostage to the nearby bunker, setting up the standoff that captured national attention.
On Wednesday, Ethan's sixth birthday, Midland City residents sought to resume a normal life in their tight-knit rural community nestled amid peanut and cotton farms.
The boy, who has Asperger's syndrome and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, was said to be acting like a normal kid despite his ordeal.
Officials hope to eventually throw a party to celebrate Ethan's birthday. They also plan to honor Poland's memory.
