Why your way of eating is inefficient and inelegant
You have nice table manners. For an American.
A European businessman once paid me that backhanded compliment at a dinner in London. If only I'd had the presence of mind to chomp a few dinner rolls into a doughy mess before turning to reply, wide-eyed and slack-jawed, "Pffffardon me? Fwwwahat did you say?" Instead, I asked what I'd done to deserve such "praise."
Turns out I don't zig-zag. Fffwhat's that? Zig-zag is etiquette doyenne Emily Post's term for it, but we could also call it the Star-Spangled Fork-Flip, the Freedom Fork-Over, or the Homeland Handoff. Or the cut-and-switch. See, when using both a fork and knife, Europeans (and everyone else, basically) will keep the fork in their left hand and the knife in the right as they cut and eat their food. But the traditionally well-mannered American? After he cuts a piece of amber-waves-of-grain-fed steak, he'll lower his knife to his plate. And then he'll switch the fork (USA! USA!) to his right hand to convey the food.
Do you cut-and-switch? Well, you've got to stop. The more time you waste pointlessly handing utensils back and forth to yourself, the less time you'll have to cherish life and liberty, pursue happiness, and contribute to America's future greatness. And also -- though that snob at dinner surely didn't know this -- the supposedly all-American cut-and-switch is in fact an old European pretension, of just the sort we decided to free ourselves from 237 years ago.
Yup. The cut-and-switch is originally European. According to Darra Goldstein, a professor at Williams College and the founding editor of Gastronomica: The Journal of Food and Culture, when forks first came to the European dining table, diners took their cues from the kitchen, where the fork would be held in the left hand to steady a slab of meat, say, and the right hand wielded the knife. So far, so good. But around the early 18th century, particularly in France, it became fashionable for diners to put the knife down after cutting, and swap the fork to the right hand -- i.e., to cut-and-switch.
What explains the rise of the cut-and-switch? One theory: Fancy manners often fetishize delicacy, and it's just easier to delicately convey food to your mouth with your dominant hand. Anna Post, Emily's great-great-granddaughter, passed along another possibility. Back when dinnertime violence was a not too distant cultural memory, lowering the knife -- even a rounded one -- was intuitively associated with high manners. Indeed Goldstein describes how American fork-floppers lay the knife on their plate -- blade facing in -- as a "medieval position of trust."
The cut-and-switch could also reflect garden-variety prejudice against the left hand. Even today, in much of the Arab world, the right hand alone is used for eating (traditionally without utensils), while the left is relegated to a less exalted realm of daily responsibilities. Nor should we underestimate the possibility that the cut-and-switch became popular precisely because it was cumbersome. Harry Mount, the author of How England Made the English, reminded me how often, in the contrary world of manners, "greater inefficiency can infer greater elegance."
Nineteenth-century Americans acquired the cut-and-switch from France -- "the arbiter of elegance" for Americans then, says Goldstein. But by then Europe was already changing. In 1853, a French text claimed it was trendy to not cut-and-switch. Again, there may be no good reason. Bethanne Patrick, author of "An Uncommon History of Common Courtesy," told me she suspects convenience and efficiency eventually won out, hastening the adoption of the no-switch style we now call Continental or European -- and then that, too, took on the force of fashion.
What is clear is that America never got the telegram. The cut-and-switch -- like imperial units of measurement -- counts among those European castaways that became Americanisms only when Europe itself changed. Today, the cut-and-switch is the equivalent of a mouthful of glittering white teeth, a calf-ful of glittering white sock, or a request for half-and-half -- an absolute clincher that you stand in the company of a fellow lover of freedom. Jeanette Martin, the co-author of "Global Business Etiquette," couldn't think of another major country that fork-swaps. Even among Canadians, some zig-zag, but "Continental predominates."
Well. We've had our fun. And now it's time to stop. Americans prize efficiency -- especially when it comes to food. Sure, a cut-and-switch partisan might argue that Americans already eat fast enough -- whether we're talking about actual fast food, practically predigested squeezable pouches and energy bars, or our enthusiastic and all but unique embrace of eating while walking and driving; you could argue that the cut-and-switch is just the kind of gastronomic speed bump we need more of. But what if we spend so little time at the table because we find fork-swapping so tedious?
The other reason to dump the cut-and-switch, of course, is that it's a European pretension -- one so weird that even Europe eventually abandoned it. And please, no "wherever it came from, it's American now" business. Let's be clear -- this was a French norm swallowed whole by Americans who reflexively equated France with classiness. And we're the ones who pride ourselves on our casual willingness to cast off the mooring lines of tradition. Clinging to a complicated and encumbering Old European mannerism whose purpose is utterly opaque? Is that why we had a revolution?
Luckily, change is afoot. Some Americans -- those who have lived abroad, those with a foreign parent or two, particularly bewildered left-handers (check, check, and check) -- have never cut-and-switched. But these days I encounter more and more Americans who've unshackled themselves from outdated cultural hegemonies.
The experts have noticed too. Anna Post stressed that while both methods remain equally acceptable, her "sense is that the American style is slowly becoming outdated." Bethanne Patrick told me much the same. Cesar Caicedo is a captain at Tom Colicchio's New York restaurant Craft, the home of what might be the world's best roast chicken. He's noticed a gradual but unmistakable change over his nine years there. As a typical example, he described a recent large graduation dinner he worked -- Texans, not New Yorkers -- at which only the grandmother ate American-style.
Why the change? One possibility is globalization. More Americans live, work, study, and do business abroad than ever. Patsy Rowe, the Sydney-based author of Business Etiquette, frequently works with American execs keen to "abandon the awkward cut-and-switch."

U.S. Women Likely To Wear 'Black Widow' Uniforms Against Brazil
The U.S. women's soccer team will be looking for a spark when they play Brazil Sunday in an elimination match of the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup. One source of inspiration could be their new all-black uniforms, which the U.S. team reportedly plans to wear for the first time in Germany.
The all-black uniforms (or "kit," as we call it in the global-inflected world language of international soccer... or, um, football), might help the U.S. women rise to the occasion and defeat Brazil, thus proving that they're more mature and focused than the squad that lost its first-ever group stage match against Sweden and squandered a chance to win Group C.
Described by Nike as evoking a Black Widow spider, the black kit will give U.S. spectators something more to talk about besides the Americans' chances against Brazil and its five-time FIFA player of the year, Marta.
The uniforms have been a hot topic. During the U.S. opener against North Korea, a soccer fan here at NPR shot me a note with some of her thoughts about the exciting match (somewhat superfluously, actually; I heard her yelling from down the hall).
Then she added, "I hate to be a girl...but the uniforms? Really? As soon as anyone starts paying attention, they will start complaining about the uniforms. They look so silly."
It turns out that someone had been paying attention, and complaining, already. In April, Jennifer Doyle wrote on her From A Left Wing blog that "This is quite simply the ugliest women's football jersey I have ever seen."
Another NPR soccer fan said, "I agree that the U.S. uniforms are tragic (though Canada's poncho-esque kits are a close second)."
So, I asked Nike media relations manager Tim Yu about the U.S. team's uniforms. And like with most sportswear, it turns out that they're the result of lots of thinking about function and style.
"The kits are made of a new recycled polyester DriFit yarn that is designed to keep players cooler and more comfortable," Yu says — a possibly huge advantage in the heat and humidity that marked many of the early matches in Germany.
The jerseys are made of, essentially, recycled bottles. In an email, Yu said that "each jersey contains around 8 plastic bottles."
Nike says that DriFit is 15 percent lighter than the previous sports fabric, which makes it sound something like the Michelob Ultra of the uniform world.
That all sounds fine. But here's where we get to the part that makes some fans, and fashion observers, uneasy. "The kit is designed specifically for the female athlete, to enhance the range of motion and create a uniquely feminine silhouette," Nike said back in the spring, when it (and U.S. Soccer) announced the national team's new uniforms.
So far, so good. I've heard from other sources that the U.S. players had some input in the design, and it's understandable that they'd want a kit that's designed for their bodies and does a good job of managing heat.
But then, it seems, fans and fashionistas go a little nuts when it comes to this next part. "Capped sleeves and a high neckline with v-neck piping were added to create a striking aesthetic," in Nike's view.
It's unclear how contagious that view is. Several onlookers, Doyle included, have unfavorably compared the team's white "home" kit to a nurse's outfit. There seems to be less outcry against the black "away" uniform, which features "a black bodice and red piping inspired by the beautiful but deadly Black Widow spider," Nike says.
Of course, there may be less outcry just because the black kit has been worn in fewer games. But at least one reviewer fell in love with it.
For anyone wondering if the U.S. will be playing in the full sun when they're wearing black Sunday: It'll be 5:30 p.m. in Germany when the U.S. plays Brazil. That's 11:30 a.m. ET. I might not know all there is to know about fashion, but wouldn't the 8:30 p.m. (local time) game against Sweden have been the time to break out the formal gear?
Whether they love or hate the new uniforms, there's some good news for U.S. fans hoping the team advances to the semifinals: So far, the Americans are undefeated when they wear the Black Widow unis. The last time the U.S. wore the black kit was in June, when it beat Mexico, 1-0. The all-black look was introduced in a 2-0 win over Japan in May.
Still, the U.S. women could be forgiven for hoping history plays only a small role in Sunday's match. Because in the 2007 Women's World Cup, the Brazilians handed them their worst-ever loss, 4-0.
If the U.S. women win Sunday and you decide you just have to have a uniform for yourself, they're being sold through the U.S. Soccer store. A full kit, including socks, will run you $122.37 before tax. A jersey by itself — white or black — costs $71.99. If that seems steep, you have our apologies for passing along the info that they're made from recycled plastic bottles.

How do you film the world's fastest mountain runner? Filmmaker Sébastien Montaz says it's all about the emotion.
Dejame Vivir - Let Me Live - is the eagerly awaited second film from Sébastien Montaz to follow Kilian Jornet on the athlete's personal Summits of My Life project. It follows Kilian as he sets two mind-boggling record ascents on Mt Blanc and the Matterhorn. But it's much more than a documentary of the climbs, the filmmaker tells us:
"To me what's important is not the performance; that's not my thing. My background is as a mountain guide and I've always filmed people – the thing for me is to try and capture the emotions.
Kilian is someone who's happy, who has an entertaining personality. We wanted the film to be like him. So I asked him to shoot whenever he did something. Kilian has passion for the image and a very good understanding on how to make a film. He writes books, has a very good touch for telling stories using his phone or camera, he's posting stuff every day. He has a good eye and knows what works.
These very personal shots added something new to the film because people think they know a little bit more about Kilian. It's more intimate. We also involved the public. For the Matterhorn record I was asking via Facebook for their shots, which I included. It's the same concept – getting stories from the inside."
Kilian is not the only star of the film. There is also another mountain legend, who the team meet in Russia for a race on Mt Elbrus, Vitaly Shkel, a Russian mountain guide.
"His nickname is 'the monster' in Russian," continues Montaz. "There's a whole legend around him. He lived in this hut at 4,000m all summer just to prepare for the race. He was well prepared. Kilian was quite suprised to have someone who kept up with him! To me it was the highlight of the filming to discover this unique athlete."
It's also a highlight of the film to see the camaraderie and friendship develop between the small community of mountain runners who turn up for the race.
"Russia was fun," adds Montaz. "It's a bit of a wild region."
Déjame Vivir is available for download here.

Last week, mommy blogger Kara Gebhart Uhl issued a public mea culpa: she published a blanket apology for judging other moms before she had kids of her own.
Uhl recalled her smugness with humility in "Apologies to the Parents I Judged Four Years Ago," which ran on the Huffington Post:
I thought things like I would never have children who would behave in such a manner in public. Or, Doesn't she know the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no TV until the age of 2? Or, How can he possibly be feeding his children that crap? Has he not read any of Michael Pollan's books?
And what's worse, now that I'm a parent, I realize internal smugness isn't so internal. As a parent, I know when I'm being judged. I can sense it, even when nothing is being said out loud. It's in the look. The double-take. The whisper to the companion they're with.
As a matter of thumb, saying "I'm sorry" often serves to defuse a situation. But in Uhl's case, her acknowledgment that she had looked down on a mom at Kohl's pushing a screaming toddler, a friend who let her kids overdose on Nick Jr. and a parent at the park who hadn't packed "an organic, free-range, all-food-groups-represented, no-dessert lunch complete with sandwiches cut in cute little shapes, who instead fed your children chicken nuggets, cold French fries and (gasp) chocolate milk" opened the floodgates for a nation's worth of maternal angst.
MORE: The Parenting Trap: Why You Shouldn't Care What Others Think of How You Raise Your Kids
More than 1,700 people commented on Uhl's post, including one mom who wrote:
I have 4 children and feel I have been an awesome parent. There are times i feel I have also been a terrible parent. We all have — and if you don't believe it, just wait till they grow up and tell you about it. As parents we all do the best that we can for our children, with what we know and where we are at the moment…I don't have time to focus on other parents' shortcomings as I am too busy trying to correct my own. I think many people would do well to do the same.
It's hard not to judge others. More often than not, though, might our judgments be rooted in our own insecurities? We all want to be good mothers, good parents. But what defines a good mother is pretty subjective. Does it hinge on buying organic apples (they do, after all, top the list of the Environmental Working Group's "dirty dozen")? On signing our kids up for Kumon? On leaving our precious bundles with nannies instead of dispatching them to day care?
Few have tapped into this vein of thinking like Valerie Stone Hawthorne, a mom of 3½-year-old twins who just happens to hold a doctorate in cancer biology and cell biology and who is pretty handy at making wickedly satirical videos lampooning modern motherhood. In 2010, her cartoon "Why I Can't Make Mom Friends" tackled the same phenomenon to which Uhl has pleaded guilty. "She struck a nerve because everyone has thought like this," Hawthorne says of Uhl.
At the time, I described Hawthorne's clip like this:
In the video, two moms meet at the playground. One, a mom of twins, shares that she stopped breast-feeding after a month because it was too difficult. The other, a mom of three, responds: "That is a shame. Your poor children."
"They are just fine," replies the first mom. "They are in the 90th percentile for height."
"Mine are in the 95th," counters the second mom.
As an earnest new mom, Stone Hawthorne would troll mommy message boards only to get beaten down. "No matter what I was doing it was always wrong," she says. "You know, if you don't hold your child a million times a day and attend to his every need, he will grow up dysfunctional." A researcher, she read scores of baby how-to books to determine the "right" way to raise her children. What she's discovered is that there is no right way.
MORE: In Defense of Motherhood: Why We Keep Having Kids When They're So Clearly Bad for Us
Uhl has discovered that same truth. Eventually, one hopes, we all reach that point. But not many of us have the chutzpah to pen a public atonement.

For Women & Co., by Kate Hanley, MsMindbody.com
Raise your hand if you spent any of your afternoons as a teenager combing through magazines, cutting out pictures and phrases you liked and pasting them on to a piece of cardboard.
Congratulations, you're already a seasoned vision board maker!
It seems that vision boards became wildly popular after they were featured in the documentary "The Secret." But you don't have to believe in -- or even know about -- the law of attraction (which essentially states that what you focus on grows) to make good use of a vision board. Better yet, you don't need an entire summer off and a bin full of glitter pens to create one. But before we get to how, let's clear something up first:
Why Use a Vision Board?
If you just sit down with pen and paper (or laptop or tablet) when you go to create your list of long and short-term goals for your career and your family, you'll miss those things your logical mind hasn't quite gotten around to verbalizing yet. Putting together a vision board can crystallize the goals you're already aware of and tease out the ones that are still in a formative state.
Seeing images that represent the things you want to do, be or achieve helps you internalize how it will feel when you've done, become or achieved them. It serves as a guidepost AND a goal line. That's more than an item on a to-do list -- which loses any kind of resonance as soon as you cross it off.
Just as important as the visual aspect of a vision board is its physical presence. Put it somewhere where you'll see it several times a day: on the refrigerator, above your desk or even on the wall next to your television or bathroom mirror. The goal is to see your vision board so often that your dreams and aspirations eventually become part of your everyday reality.
As you may remember from your teenage collage-making days, you could spend the better part of a day making a vision board. Now that you're an adult who likely doesn't have oodles of free time to burn, here are a few ways to make a vision board quickly and simply:
Down and Dirty
Do an image web search for the things on your list of goals, or look for inspiration on sites like Pinterest. Remember: Since the physical presence of the vision board is so important, this is not the time to keep it online: Copy and paste the images in to a document, then print it out.
Slow and Low Maintenance
Make it a point to collect images that speak to you as you go about your days: postcards, magazines, advertisements, business cards, etc. Pin the pages up on a big bulletin board when you get home and watch your goals evolve over time.
Festive and Fun
Invite friends over (with kids, if you've got 'em) and ask everyone to bring whatever magazines they have lying around, as well as a pair of scissors. Pick up some poster board and a pack of glue sticks at the office supply store and voila, you've got a vision board party. Yes, this requires a few consecutive hours to make happen, but socializing with your friends and sharing your goals and dreams with them are both valuable activities on their own. Throw a (mostly) finished vision board in to that equation, and that's a more-than-worthy expenditure of time.

North Bethesda, MD, April 11, 2013- With the inclusion of the Arapahoe Public Library bibliographic, patron, and circulation transaction records, LibLime has completed the Pioneer Consortium Phase One library migration project. All of the member libraries are now live on LibLime Koha 4.14.
For nearly two years, LibLime Project Managers have been working with Pioneer Consortium staff members to migrate bibliographic, item, patron, and circulation transaction data from their legacy ILS systems to LibLime Koha 4.14. A total of 28 libraries representing 18 autonomous library systems throughout the state of Nebraska are now using LibLime Koha to manage their collections. Following the completion of the Pioneer Consortium migration, there are nearly 600,000 bibliographic records, 1.52 million item records, and 332,000+ patron records in the LibLime Koha union catalog.
About the Pioneer Consortium
The Pioneer Consortium continues to expand the number of members that share the LibLime Koha union catalog. The successes of the early members of the consortium are noticed by more and more libraries around the state and the consortium membership continues to grow. One of the main attractions is access to the LibLime Koha union catalog.

persistant coughing - Prevention Measures For Acute Bronchitis
Prevention Measures For Acute Bronchitis
There are two types of bronchitis, acute and
chronic bronchitis
. Acute
lasts for 10 to 12 days. It is mainly caused by a virus or bacteria and in some cases it may come from fungus. People suffering from
acute bronchitis
have the following symptoms, constant coughing with mucus, excessive fatigue, shortness of breath, chest pain, low fever, vibration felt when breathing, and sometimes a cold feeling.
Bronovil Natural Bronchitis Remedy
Natural natural bronchitis cure.
Formulated to Help Support:
Stop persistent cough
Naturally relieve pain and fever
Relieve lung inflamation
Prevent virus from attacking your lungs
Boost your immune system
Breathe easier
Feel stronger in no time
Great Product
Changes in air temperature (going from a warm house to the outside), cigarette smoke, chemical odors etc. can often trigger a coughing spasm. That is why if you smoke, please try to stop during your illness (in fact, now might be the time to stop for good!).Wear a muffler to protect your nose and mouth when you go outside into the cold.
treatment may require the use of oxygen therapy to aid those who are having difficulty breathing and suffering other respiratory problems. There have been severe cases of bronchitis with lungs that were so badly damaged; a transplant was the only possibility for a cure. Obviously, this bronchitis treatment comes with its own set of risks, namely life expectancy and finding a suitable donor.
If you begin to feel the beginnings of a cough, get plenty of rest, drink at least eight to 10 glasses of water everyday, and consider visiting your doctor or health care professional. Couple this with a diet full of nutrition and you be taking important steps to avoid ever needing a
bronchitis treatment
to begin with.
Those who suffer from severe chronic
is capable of developing
asthmatic bronchitis
as well as those of persistent asthma. Unfortunately, a bacteria infection causes
chronic bronchitis
but not asthmatic. When particles pass through the cilia of the bronchial tubes, it aggravates this type of condition. Mucus is then produced to cover lungs, soft tissues and trachea by the bronchial tubes.
Mucus is created in such an enormous amount that it blocks the air from getting into the lungs very well. This is quite common for those with persistent asthmatic
Any time we're dealing with our health, it is never advisable to postpone consulting your doctor or health care professional. Early diagnosis will allow
treatments to be much more effective, and increase your chances for recovery.
treatments can be effective in the relief of symptom, however the old expression "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure", is certainly true, and we encourage taking the steps to avoid chronic
to begin with. These include quit smoking, avoiding secondhand smoke and staying clear of heavily polluted areas.
When a disease is not treated early on, it can always develop into other forms of illness. Three things can help establish if you have asthmatic
. They include, having a clinical exam, a laboratory testing analysis must be done and pulmonary testing.
Acute bronchitis can be caused by contagious pathogens. In about half of instances of acute bronchitis a bacterial or viral pathogen is identified. Typical viruses include respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus, influenza, and others. In most cases, acute
is caused by viruses, not bacteria, and will go away on its own without antibiotics. To treat
acute bronchitis
that appears to be caused by a bacterial infection, or as a precaution, antibiotics may be given. Also, a meta-analysis found that antibiotics may reduce symptoms by one-half day.
More treatments are: * Oral corticosteroids like prednisolone tablets * Salmeterol, a symptom controller * Oral antibiotics * Anti- inflammatory medicine like Fluticasone
What is Asthamtic
? This is a disease which is very close to
in that the airways are inflamed or irritated. And because the disease is similar to other respiratory illnesses such as asthma,
, sinusitis and emphysema..it is much harder to recognize this type of illness a person may have.
This cough can last 3 weeks. Bronchitis is sometimes referred to as a "chest cold". In 90% to 95% of cases, it is caused by a VIRUS. Antibiotics kill BACTERIAL infections, not VIRAL infections. That is why antibiotics are generally not prescribed.
' Coughs persistently for longer than four or five days without showing any improvement ' Complains of pain during breathing, which is a symptom of pneumonia

is a preventable illness, establishing proper hygiene inside your house and taking care of your health may help you avoid this condition.
Lingered exposure to smoking and other pollutants or irritants will no doubt lead to
asthmatic bronchitis
if the person is already suffering from
chronic bronchitis
. No definitive link is known about why this is but some physicians say that environmental factors influence the illness.
BRONCHITIS FACT: approximately 12 million people are diagnosed with chronic
each year. One effective
treatment in addition to a healthy diet is large doses of vitamin A, shown to aid the healing of mucous membranes, and the immune system. Additionally, vitamin C can help boost your immunity, warding off other complications. Vitamin E is a known antioxidant and effective bronchitis treatment when used in conjunction with other vitamins.
If someone is prone to
, the following measures will reduce the chance of recurrences: 1) Avoid smoking at home. Those who are exposed to cigarettes smoke in the home are four times as likely to develop
as infants in a smoke-free environment.
What treatments are available for this illness? Bronchodilators, antibiotics and steroids can be used to treat the illness. They are not effective in fighting against the causes of the disease but rather the disease itself. Inhalers and bronchodilators only provide temporary relief but with ongoing treatment improvements will be noticeably different.
Oddly enough, several factors can cause this type of disease: * Bronchial Hyperactivity; * Immunologic Abnormalities; and * Severe Childhood Infections
One of the most effective bronchitis treatments is simply a healthy diet and regular exercise, while this may seem an oversimplification; you are helping your lungs to perform, clearing them of excess toxins and giving your body the fuel it needs to heal. Depending on your overall state of health, a brisk walk is an excellent low impact bronchitis treatment, and should be preformed often as the weather and your health allow.
It's typically found to be an association with
chronic bronchitis
that can develop into asthamtic
if left untreated. What causes Asthamtic Bronchitis?
1. What Is Bronchitis?
is an inflammation of the large bronchial tubes, the main airway of the lungs. There are two types of
: Acute and Chronic. Chronic
occurs as a result of the lungs being constantly irritated and inflammed. Cigarette smokers generally end up developing chronic
, a serious disease of the bronchial tubes that lead to excessive mucus production and chronic cough. Because their airways are already damaged, treatment differs for people with chronic bronchitis. These people will need to see their provider right away.

What People Said About
Bronovil Bronchitis Treatment
I felt miserable so i went to doctor and he said i had a bronchitis. he gave me antibiotic but even 2 weeks later i was still coughing. i got the bronovil remedy and 3 days later my cough went away.
" Betty - California
While certainly not a cure, an effective
bronchitis treatment
s for acute
(the type you'd get from a cold or flu) is to drink plenty of fluids, get plenty of rest and give your body the opportunity to fight off the infection. While drinking fluids is (in most cases) a helpful and healthful suggestion, those who suffer from chronic bronchitis will need to consult with a doctor, since their
bronchitis treatment
will be much different.
The greatest gift we have is our health, once gone it sometimes can't easily be regained; knowing that if there's anything we can do to improve our health, wouldn't it be wise to take all possibly precautions? Chronic
is most commonly found in smokers, and sometimes those who live in heavily polluted areas. It follows then, if we can reduce the chance of getting bronchitis by quitting smoking, or avoiding pollutants, this would be a smart step to ensure our health.

Symptoms of this disease are: * Wheezing * Cough * Difficulty breathing * Chest discomfort * Pain and soreness and * an increased infection vulnerability.
fever greater than 101 rapid heart rate rapid breathing In addition, listening to your lungs with a stethoscope will let your provider know if your lungs are likely to be infected.
* Salbutamol or another type of reliever medicine Although easier said than done, physicians always advise patients to avoid irritants including dust and pollen. Patients can also get their flu shot as a necessary precaution against any bacteria or virus looking to invade your body.
Remember, back in the 1800's and early 1900's, people were suffering from diseases they had no clue existed. As time went on, more diseases were being discovered. Now that the illness have medication to help ease and alleviate some of the pain and suffering, it's still best to stay healthy than taking a cure.
2. What Are the Chief Symptoms of Acute Bronchitis? cough shortness of breath chest tightness or wheezing
usually starts as a cold with symptoms such as sore throat, runny nose, or sinus infection which then settles in the chest. The large airway becomes inflammed and produces excessive mucus (can be yellow or brown), cough and shortness of breath.
Misdiagnosis can happen since there are more than one illness associated with the ones listed above. Sometimes, doctors would like chest x-rays to make sure pneumonia is not setting in. This can also lead to the treatment of the disease.

bronchitis treatment
. Those factors which contribute to
are as mentioned smoking, exposure to certain irritating agents (chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, etc.), and sometime a pre-disposed genetic condition.
You should start to feel better in 7 to 10 days, but your cough may linger for up to 3 weeks. If your cough has shown no improvement by then, you will need to see your provider.

4) If you are living in a polluted area using an air conditioner and filters in your house are recommended to be able to breathe clean air. Call your doctor if you:
A chest x-ray is generally not needed unless your cough continues for more than 3 weeks in the absence of other known causes such as allergies, asthma or gastroesophageal reflux (GERD).
Even though the symptoms of both asthma and asthmatic
are one in the same, the latter will suffer them with them in larger degrees of intensity.
If you are tired of being sick and going it alone, you first need an accurate diagnosis. It's only then that you'll get the medication you need to heal. Further complications can arise if left untreated for too long. To stave off other complications, it's wiser to face the issue than ignore it.
In the past,
was often associated with measles and whooping cough. Acute viral
develops when a virus causing an upper respiratory tract infection invades the bronchi, triggering inflammation and the secretion of excess mucus. Asthmatic
is triggered by exposure to a substance to which the child is allergic.
So if you are sick, it's time to see the doctor.

Acute bronchitis (short term bronchitis) is caused by the same viruses that cause the common cold or the flu. This article deals with the symptoms and treatment of acute bronchitis.
3. How Do I Know It Is Not Pneumonia? In healthy, non-elderly adults, pneumonia is uncommon in the absence of certain signs. The classic signs of pneumonia include:
can also result from breathing irritating fumes, such as those of tobacco smoke, or breathing polluted air (from unwashed bed linens for example).
4. What Can Be Done To Help Me Feel Better? Since antibiotics are useless in killing viruses, the key is to manage your symptoms. Expectorants to help you bring up phlegm, ibuprofen or acetaminophen, and sometimes an inhaler will help reduce your symptoms. Keep in mind though that your cough will probably be the last thing to clear up.

Why Every VAR, MSP Should Sell Mobile Device Management
By The Business Solutions Network
by Mike Monocello, editor-in-chief, Business Solutions magazine
The other day I was reading a white paper we produced for an RMM (remote monitoring and management) provider on the topic of Mobile Device Management (MDM), and it struck me that this is a service you could be offering your customers.
Consider that the number of mobile devices continues to skyrocket and that fewer and fewer workers are confined by the walls of an office. In short, the security of company information being physically tied to a corporate office is disappearing. Today, company data roams with employees, creating threats many haven't considered.
MDM puts control back into the hands of the company that owns the information. Such solutions allow companies to remotely lock devices, wipe data, track via GPS, and enforce security policies to strengthen the security of devices.
Additionally, MDM makes it easy for your customers (or you) to provision and monitor devices. From an administrative perspective, MDM makes managing lots of devices a breeze.
Finally, there are tons of reporting capabilities gained with an MDM solution.
All great stuff your customers might need.
What's more, MDM has broad applications. If you've got customers with employees using mobile phones that have corporate email, MDM could be a fit. Laptops and tablets in the field? MDM. In the world of warehousing and logistics, handheld mobile computers are prevalant. So too could be MDM. Finally, in the worlds of retail and hospitality, as tablet-based POS gains ground, the need to monitor and manage those tablets increases.
As a solutions provider, you should always be looking to increase your value-add. Indeed, in some cases, your value-add is all you have to stand apart from your competition. Whether you or your customers realize it, MDM is something that will only increase in importance. Offer such solutions as a service and increase your stickiness and recurring revenue.

Actress Eva Longoria ended her romance with New York Jet Mark Sanchez last week, and the quarterback is devastated, sources tell Page Six.
The 25-year-old NFL star has been telling friends that he and the "Desperate Housewives" star, 37, decided to end things before Sunday's game, after four months of dating.
One source told us, "Mark says he is really upset about the breakup with Eva. He is telling friends he tried everything he could to make her happy, and to make things work between them, but they live in very different worlds."
The source continued, "The problem was Mark is very focused on football, while Eva is a busy businesswoman. She lives in Los Angeles, is doing a lot of philanthropic and political work, and is developing a number of TV shows, including the NBC dating series 'Ready for Love.' "
The couple had been dating since the summer, and were first seen together in June, partying in the West Village. The Post spotted lovely Longoria hanging with Sanchez at an outdoor lunch near his home in Bedminster, NJ, in early September.
Longoria then told her pal Mario Lopez on "Extra," "We're just happy dating." But weeks later, she tried to temper things by telling Chelsea Handler that they had only been dating "for a second," adding, "He's great! [But] he's focused right now on football."
Longoria, ex-wife of San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker, was absent at the Jets' loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday, tweeting the Malibu sunset. Yesterday, she was campaigning for President Obama in Nevada.
Our source added that Sanchez has been trying to get over the break with a series of nights out with friends. He was spotted out with pals at the Darby on Friday, and then on Monday had a low-key dinner with friends at Toy Restaurant. A spy said, "He was very shy, dressed down in a long-sleeve button-down and jeans."
A rep for Sanchez said last night, "It was really more about scheduling . . . they will remain close friends."
