Sorry I Cheated - Poem by Ralph Acosta
I know I hurt you
When I did what I did.
But still without you
I don't think I can live.
You're the only one
That I have ever loved.
You were my shoulder to lean on
When things got rough.
I know it was stupid
And a huge mistake.
Will you please forgive me?
I'll do whatever it takes.
I cried myself to sleep at night
Knowing that I shouldn't.
I should have moved on
But, well, I just couldn't.
But when I cheated
Was when I realized
Just how much you meant to me
And still now and then
The tears stream from my eyes.
It's been a couple of months
And I still can't move on.
I just don't want to think
That we are really done.
I was so scared to tell you
I thought that I would lose you.
I highly doubted it
But it came true.
I thought that we could work things out
And build our trust back up.
But I think I really lost you
And to even think that is really tough.
I compare other guys to you
But none comes even close.
All they want to do is
Hit it, quit it, then boast.
You really were different
And that's what I liked.
You held me close
On cold, summer nights.
Even as I write this
Tears fall from my eyes.
I can't believe I did that to you
Then turned around and lied.
You were the most precious
Person in my life.
And maybe if I never did that
We'd still be doing alright.

SESSION TITLE: Lung Pathology Student/Resident Case Report Posters
SESSION TYPE: Student/Resident Case Report Poster
PRESENTED ON: Tuesday, October 27, 2015 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
INTRODUCTION: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SP) is thought to be produced through the Macklin effect, which involves 3 steps: alveolar rupture, gas dissection through the broncho-vascular fascia and pulmonary interstitial dissemination into the mediastinum. Usually treatment algorithms oblige patients to remain hospitalized for long periods; however, when following our previously reported algorithm1 we can achieve a much lesser length of stay (LOS), reason for presenting this case.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 20 year-old otherwise healthy male presented to ER with a 3 days history of sudden left thoracic pain with subcutaneous emphysema. 8 days before arrival refers cough with no fever. Physical examination revealed cervical subcutaneous emphysema as an only finding. Cervical chest X-ray with subcutaneous emphysema. Chest CT revealed peri-tracheal and esophageal free air with no evidence of pneumothorax and tracheal, bronchial or esophageal rupture, as well as any active infectious gas-producing process (figure 1). Treated with supplemental oxygen only, he was discharged without any complication two days after, he continues follow-up without complications 3 months later.
DISCUSSION: SP is defined as the presence of free air in the mediastinal zones without an apparent cause, usually triggered by a Valsalva maneuver, violent coughing or intense physical exertion.2 It is also well known that when pneumothorax is present, it has a benign and self limited course. therefore is not necessary to perform any invasive diagnostic procedure or provide especial treatment unless suspicion of another cause is present.3 X-ray and chest CT scans in combination with a specific H&P and laboratory findings may give sufficient evidence for its diagnosis. Once made, the mainstay of treatment is conservative care, including reassurance, analgesics, and oxygen therapy for the relief of symptoms with close observation.3 We previously reported a mean LOS of 4.1 ± 2.3 days in a systematic review which compiled 25 of the largest series in the literature, concluding with a treatment algorithm to reduce LOS in these patients; in our case we followed it (figure 2) with favorable results.1
CONCLUSIONS: The use of the General Hospital of Mexico's treatment algorithm for patients with SP is feasible in daily clinical practice and should be implemented as a diagnostic/treatment tool in these patients to reduce hospital LOS and unnecessary tests.

A knife-wielding man hijacked a bus in Norway and stabbed to death three people on board.
The suspect, a man in his 50s, was arrested after the attack in Sogn and Fjordane county.
Police said the suspect, who last night was being treated for stab wounds, was not an ethnic Norwegian but could not provide further details.
The victims were two men in their 50s — the Norwegian bus driver and a Swedish passenger — and a 19-year-old Norwegian woman, Erdal said. All had been stabbed. There were no other passengers on the bus, she said.
The attack took place around 16:30 GMT on a remote mountain road near Ardal, about 135 miles north-west of Oslo.
"The situation was very unclear. They only told us that there was one man on the bus who had hijacked the bus and the driver was hurt. That was the first message we got here," said Andre Krakene, a spokesman for Oslo police.
"For now, I have no information to indicate there was anyone else than the three victims" on the bus, police officer Joern Lasse Foerde Refsnes told TV2 news channel.
"It was impossible to open the doors. Then we saw a dark-skinned person inside the bus. At first, we thought he was trying to get out but then saw he was moving around with a knife, and we realised that the situation was quite different."
Police said there was nothing to suggest the victims were known to the attacker. Authorities in Oslo were getting ready to send an anti-terror unit to the scene but called off the deployment after receiving reports that the suspect had been arrested.
Multiple killings are rare in Norway, though the country was shocked by its worst peacetime massacre two years ago when Anders Behring Breivik, a Norwegian right-wing extremist, killed 77 people in a bomb and gun rampage.

It can be argued that Sunday's game with the Green Bay Packers is the most important game the Vikings have played since they met the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship Game in January 2010. There are matchups across the board on both sides of the ball that will have an impact on who wins or loses Sunday, but no fight will be more critical than Adrian Peterson going against the defensive front of the Packers.
When asked earlier this season about how he reacts to seeing eight defenders in the box, Peterson was nonplussed. As he sees it, he's been facing eight or more defensive players in the box since he was in high school. That didn't change when he went to Oklahoma. It hasn't changed since he joined the NFL. He routinely faces eight defenders in the box and, at times, nine or 10 – a fact film review shows. It is no secret that defenses game plan for the Vikings specifically with the top priority being to stop Peterson by any means necessary. That is what makes this matchup so critical because there are layers to Peterson being effective that will impact both teams in a profound way.
Of all the comparisons that can be made between the Vikings and Packers, the most glaring and most obvious is at quarterback. Aaron Rodgers is an elite quarterback and arguably has the most complete skill set of any quarterback in the league when combining accuracy, arm strength, mobility and scrambling ability. Christian Ponder has struggled badly at times in his first full season as a starter. If the Packers can limit Peterson or get an early lead, the onus of bringing the Vikings back will fall on the shoulders of Ponder. In their first meeting, Ponder made the critical errors that cost the Vikings a chance to win the game. Green Bay is looking for a repeat performance and it will be up to Peterson to prevent that from happening.
The importance of Peterson being able to take the pressure off of Ponder has a ripple effect on both sides of the ball. Every time a team runs the ball, it takes 30-40 seconds off the game clock. It can help sustain long drives and, if the runs are effective, move the ball down the field. Not only will that move the Vikings into scoring position, but it will also keep Rodgers off the field. Rodgers can't do any damage if he's on the sidelines.
The cumulative toll of Peterson having a prolific day on the ground will also serve a dual purpose. It will keep the Packers defense on the field and, as time goes on, could wear them down and make them vulnerable to big plays as they get more tired. At the same time, the Vikings defense will have an opportunity to stay fresh and, when Green Bay has the ball, be able to attack Rodgers at full steam.
The first time the Vikings met the Packers, Peterson ran for 210 yards on 21 carries. While it may be a tall order to expect that kind of yardage again, it won't be surprising if Peterson runs the ball 30 times or more. If the Vikings can establish the run early and get a lead, Peterson could be critical to the performance of both teams on both sides of the ball, making his matchup with the Packers' front seven (or eight or nine) the key matchup as the Vikings hope to seal the deal on their improbable 2012 push for the playoffs.

Morning Silver Market Report
Compiled 08/17/11 6:00 AM (CT) Statistics: London Gold Fix $1,792.00 +$13.00 LME Copper Stocks 464,625 tons -650 tons SILVER MARKET FUNDAMENTALS: (6:00 AM CT) The silver market has forged a quasi upside breakout this morning and in the process the September silver contract reached the highest level since August 8th. Apparently silver and platinum prices have managed to take a large measure of direction from gold prices and in turn the fear of slowing physical demand has been discounted. Therefore action in the currency markets, equity markets and debt markets are likely to have a noted ongoing impact on silver prices. However, traders don't seem to be able to fully tamp down macro economic slowing fears and that could at times hold silver back from a direct and tight link with gold prices. It does seem as if silver and platinum prices have seen some spillover bargain hunting buying recently from would-be gold buyers and that might leave gold as the key leading indicator of the precious metals complex. Silver might be able to garner some support from Chinese concerns of their US investments, as the Vice President's visit to China has rekindled currency manipulation charges again. Comex Silver Stocks were pegged at 105.268 million ounces which is a decline of 1,025,431 ounces. Stocks have increased 13 of the last 20 days. OUTSIDE MARKET DEVELOPMENTS: (6:00 AM CT) While equity markets in Asia were mixed during overnight trading, stock indices in Europe are generally weaker this morning. Early indications are that US equity markets will open near unchanged levels later on today. The US Dollar is weaker against most of the major currencies this morning, although posting a moderate gain versus the Pound. The Swiss National Bank announced fresh liquidity measures to weaken their currency but did not initiate a "peg" versus the Euro. China announced plans to allow foreign investors to use the Yuan to buy Chinese securities. UK Unemployment during July was 7.9%, higher than market expectations. Euro zone CPI during July was 2.5% year-on-year, in-line with forecasts. Major US economic numbers to be released this morning include the July Producer Price Index at 7:30 AM, and a private survey of mortgage applications released before the opening. In addition, Fed Regional President Fisher will give a speech during the session.

US STOCKS-Wall St falls amid global growth worries
* Financials lead declines
* Dollar hits lowest vs yen since 2014
* Indexes down: Dow 1 pct, S&P 1.2 pct, Nasdaq 1.5 pct (Updates with Gap shares down after the bell)
By Caroline Valetkevitch
April 7 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks dropped on Thursday as oil prices slid and worries about the global economy resurfaced, dragging down the dollar against the yen and causing investors to flee riskier assets.
The S&P 500 posted its biggest daily percentage loss in about six weeks, while the growth worries weighed especially on interest-rate sensitive financials, strategists said. The group fell 1.9 percent and was the biggest drag on the S&P 500.
"There's concern about a global slowdown," said Michael O'Rourke, chief market strategist at JonesTrading in Greenwich, Connecticut.
"I think what we're seeing is the market believes that these (global central bank) policies and discussions on negative rates have diminishing returns at this point and are creating more harm than good, more uncertainty than stability."
The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 174.09 points, or 0.98 percent, to 17,541.96, the S&P 500 lost 24.75 points, or 1.2 percent, to 2,041.91 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 72.35 points, or 1.47 percent, to 4,848.37. Continuación...

Automobiles, Motorcycles and Libertarian Politics
Downsizing is no longer the answer, apparently.
Of engines, that is.
You may have noticed.
Even big vehicles come – increasingly – with startlingly small engines. Two-point-oh liter fours, for example, have become the go-to engine in mid-sized cars like the BMW 4, the Cadillac ATS and Mercedes C. These cars used to come standard with sixes in the 3-liter-ish range.
Several new cars (Ford Fiesta, Mini Cooper) come with three cylinder engines of less than 2 liters' displacement.
All have turbos to increase displacement (on demand) in order to maintain the power/performance levels car buyers want while also delivering the higher mileage and lower emissions the government demands.
Whoops, scratch the latter.
It turns out that small, turbocharged engines are producing more politically incorrect emissions in real-world driving than expected – and allowed. Because they are pressurized (a turbocharger is an exhaust-driven device that compresses the incoming air, resulting in a more energy-dense air-fuel charge and thus, more power when the mix is burned) they tend to run hotter – and hotter-running engines tend to emit higher percentages of compounds called oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
They pass the government tests – were designed (and tuned) to pass the government tests. But when actually out on the road, driven the way people actually drive them, their NOx output apparently exceeds the allowable threshold.
Higher-than-permitted NOx emissions out on the road (as opposed to hooked up to a test rig) are also what got VW in trouble.
Now it appears everyone is in trouble.
Times two.
Because the only technically (and economically) feasible way to reduce NOx to within what the regulators are demanding in real-word driving is to nix turbos and the high pressure/heat they create… and bring back the displacement that the turbos were intended to replace. But the problem then become carbon dioxide "emissions" (in air quotes for a reason, bear with) which necessarily go up the larger an engine is because a larger engine necessarily burns more gas, all else being equal – and that results in more gasses exiting the tailpipe.
But carbon dioxide is not an "emission" in the way that NOx or carbon monoxide and unburned fuel remnants (volatile organic compounds) are emissions. They are all byproducts of internal combustion – but carbon dioxide, unlike the others, is an inert gas.
Not reactive, like NOx emissions are.
It doesn't create or even contribute to smog. It doesn't aggravate respiratory problems.
C02 is, in a word, harmless … unless you buy into the religious doctrine of unnatural (and man-made) "climate change." Then it is considered an emission subject to regulation, the same as the others. Not here in the United States (yet) but in Europe, which all but assures it will be here as well.
Hillary is champing at the bit – and the election is just three weeks away.
And even if by some miracle she is bound and gagged and rendered inert, we will still feel the effects – because car companies are global and have to design cars for more than just the U.S. market, which is no longer the world's largest market for cars.
Thus, what occurs in Europe concerns us very much, like it or not.
Hillary or not.
And what's going to occur is another price hike, because the cost of making cars (making car engines) just went up.
Huge sums have been invested in the design of families of small, turbocharged engines (both gas and diesel) which were presumed to be the means by which customers could be pleased and government bureaucrats appeased for the next decade-plus at least.
Now it appears that these engines will need to be prematurely retired – long before their R&D costs are amortized over a lifetime production run.
More gratuitous waste – brought to you by government.
Two examples: GM sells a 1.2 liter turbo-diesel in several of its European Opel cars. It's being tossed into the trash in favor of something larger and less turbocharged. Maybe not turbocharged at all. Likewise, VW is kiboshing its high-economy 1.4 liter three-cylinder, which will be replaced (also prematurely) by a larger 1.6 liter engine.
The larger engines will make the NOx cut – but their "greenhouse gas" emissions (C02) will be higher.
Which brings us to the brick wall at the end of the alley.
C02 is the unanswerable trump card thrown down by the enemies of internal combustion because no matter how "clean" in terms of actually harmful emissions, an internal combustion engine will always produce C02. The car industry has managed to almost eliminate the meaningful, genuinely harmful stuff coming out of car's tailpipe.
Even the NOx (and other stuff) is mostly a bogey. Emissions measured in fractions of a percent that are a negligible problem if they are a problem at all, in terms of actual harms caused to actual people (as opposed to offending a regulatory standard).
But C02 can't be eliminated without also eliminating internal combustion.
This is the increasingly obvious – the explicit – regulatory goal.
Germany's government has openly announced its intention to ban internal combustion-powered vehicles as a class by the year 2030. There are already "ICE No Go" zones in major European cities. VW – licking its wounds from the beating it tool over the NOx emissions "cheating" scandal – has announced its intention to abandon the IC engine in favor of the electric motor by 2025.
There is no way out – except by going all-in for electric cars (and, maybe, hybrids that mostly motivate on electricity).
But this leads us to another wall – an economic one.
The performance of electric cars has improved. Some have real-world viable range (though still nowhere near that of any IC-engined car) but the problem remains: They cost far too much to be sensible as an economic alternative to an IC-engined car.
Forcing people to buy electric cars will have the effect of forcing people to not buy cars, period. To "ride share" – or ride the bus. Which will have the effect of making it untenable for most people to live much beyond a certain radius of urban cores.
And that appears to be the nut of it.

US STOCKS-Wall St set for higher open as earnings lift sentiment
* Crude down more than 1 percent
* VMWare, Discover Financial jump after earnings beat
* Intel down after revenue forecast cut
* Futures up: Dow 9 pts, S&P 3 pts, Nasdaq 9 pts (Adds details, comment, updates prices)
By Abhiram Nandakumar
April 20 (Reuters) - U.S. stock indexes were set to open slightly higher on Wednesday as encouraging earnings reports countered oil prices sliding on renewed concerns about global oversupply.
Crude fell more than 1 percent after Kuwaiti oil workers called off a strike that drove up prices and helped the S&P 500 breach 2,100 on Tuesday, about 30 points shy of its record high.
A recent rebound in oil and the U.S. Federal Reserve's accommodative monetary policy helped the index recover from a steep selloff earlier this year.
Investors are sharply focused on the earnings season as they seek catalysts to drive stocks higher. Big-bank earnings reports last week were better than expected and helped lift sentiment. Continuación...

This article investigates the effect of a Tony nomination or win on the demand facing a Broadway production using a panel of weekly revenues for Broadway productions from 1996 to 2007. Our results indicate that the effect of a nomination or win is positive in the week of the announcement and gradually increases in successive weeks, presumably due to publicity and word-of-mouth. Winners experience an increase in demand as late as 1 year later when awards are publicized for the following season. Moreover, nominees that do not win the award are penalized heavily in the weeks following the Award announcements. We find that winning a Tony Award increases a production's revenues by 12% in the week immediately following the Awards.

The Evil Within verschijnt op de huidige, next-gen consoles en PC.
De game is in de maak bij Tango Gameworks.
Een trailer is natuurlijk leuk maar we hebben nu eindelijk wat meer details, met dank aan IGN, van The Evil Within. The Evil Within is een survival/horror-game en wordt ontwikkeld door Tango Gameworks. De game zal verschijnen op de Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC en next-gen consoles in 2014. De volgende details komen voort uit een demo die Shinji Mikami speelde.
– Mikami is aiming for "the perfect balance between horror and action"
– Aims to have an "air of mystery" instead of thematic twists
– Main character is called 'Sebastian', he is a detective
– His partner is called Joseph, and the two are joined by a female detective referred to as 'Kid'
– Viewpoint is from over Sebastian's shoulder
– The development team is "paying a lot of attention to the theatrical and cinematic aspects" of the game
– In terms of controls, they want the game to feel scary and cinematic, but the controls shouldn't impact flow or be cumbersome
– The Evil Within is developed using a heavily modified version of id Tech 5 which the game's art director calls "Tango-stylized"
– Player movement plays an important part in survival. Sneaking and crouching may be necessary when monsters are nearby.
– The variety of motions and animations change depending on whether enemies are nearby nor not
– The Evil Within's producer thinks it's much harder to scare people these days, so Sebastian has been created as an everyman. Players are meant to identify with him, which makes it more immersive.
– A "Butcher" brandishing a chainsaw chases Sebastian. He can uses things in the environment, such as glass bottles, to distract enemies.
– The first part of the demo takes place in an asylum, followed by a brief section in a hospital.
– The second part skips to an outside area, as Sebastian moves towards an abandoned cottage.
– The Evil Within has a minimalist HUD. Items that can be interacted with a denoted with on-screen prompts. On the screen is a small health bar and, when a weapon is drawn, an icon indicating ammo,
– Players will have "appropriate types of weapons with a limited amount of ammunition to get them through"
– The standard enemies in The Evil Within are zombie-like, shambling types.
– Progression through the cottage is linear, but it is promised the game will open up. The Evil Within is a mixture of "narrow, confined spaces and larger, wide open spaces"
– The areas are designed to make players feel claustrophobic, then provide relief through open areas. The cycle is repeated over the course of the game, with enemies appearing in unexpected ways and places.
– In the demo, an enemy wave that moves very much like Resident Evil 4's Ganados are defeated with a mine trap. Sebastian lays the mine by a door, the rest are dispatched with a handguns. The enemies attempt to break in through the window.
– At one point the environment shifts, changing its layout. Before Sebastian can get his bearings, a wave of blood crashes down the corridor, similar to the elevator scene in The Shining.
– Sebastian wakes up at the asylum. The inspiration for the shifting environments was cited as The Winchester House
– Another enemy shown in the demo is described as "a giant, multi-legged, multi-armed wraith". It emerges from a fountain of blood and moves quickly towards Sebastian.
– Mikami ends the demo by saying "If players say 'I haven't played a game this scary in a while,' that would make me the happiest."

The people showed up everyday, worked the whole day, and maintained a positive attitude throughout the day.
I felt confident about the way things were handled and being done. My interactions with the worker that was in charge of the actual installation of the materials made me feel at ease about the time it will take to complete the project, and his a interest in how I was feeling about production and how everything was looking on a daily basis was very considerate of him. The whole crew in general seem together about what needed to be done. At times, I would be speaking with an elderly gentleman during the first phase of the project, who seem to show me and explain to me the general locations on the street they will be parking and the general locations where materials will be left, till the job is completed. The trash or throw away items were constantly being addressed as to leave as little of it as possible. Over all, I felt that they showed me they wanted my input about how everything was going, and they made every effort to maintain their interaction with me about anything I may be concerned about.
Professional, Fair and Friendly
I hired Pro Star Roofing to replace my entire roof. I had been referred to Pro Star from other neighbors who had their roofs repaired. They really liked the service and quality of work so I decided to give them a try. They came and did my estimate within a day of calling them. They started the job soon after and finished within 2 days. They cleaned up after themselves which was very much appreciated. My roof looks great and they helped me with my deductible which was a huge plus. I would definitely recommend Pro Star Roofing to others.
Went the extra mile!
We received a fair estimate from this company that was within the limits of our insurance coverage. After construction started the insurance company began giving us flack about the cost and work to be done. Pro Star Roofing stepped in and handled all communications with the insurance company, eliminating a lot of stress on our part. Everything was resolved satisfactorily. The work they did was outstanding and it passed city inspection easily. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for anything they do.

You can also take lactobacillus capsules- Natures Way has an inexpensive lactobacillus supplement that has proven colonizing lactobacillus. Take care

She and the other midwives in the practice were really surprised. They said they had never had a patient's water break during a routine exam before.

Pléiades view of Noor OuarzazateThe record-breaking solar power plant being built for the COP 22 in Marrakesh
Monitoring the construction of Noor Ouarzazate by Pléiades shows the scale of what will be the world's largest concentrated solar power plant. This construction site is a symbol of Morocco's energy transition in the run-up to the COP 22 in Marrakesh.
A few months before the COP 22 Climate Conference in Marrakesh, the King of Morocco inaugurated the 480ha Noor 1 concentrated solar power plant north of Ouarzazate. With 160 MW, the plant is the 7th largest in the world. With the NOOR 2, 3 and 4 extensions currently under construction, the plant will be the world's largest with 500 MW. The plant has a storage capacity of 3 hours of production using molten salt.
Two Pléiades images clearly indicate the scale of the construction work. The first, taken on 17th October 2013, shows the beginning of the work on a vast rocky plain. On the second, taken on 8th March 2016, the first Noor 1 tranche appears in the south, while construction work to extend the plant to the north can be seen. Once completed, the plant will be as large as Rabat, the capital of Morocco.

He can be cold, detached, heartless, witty, kind, charming, sensitive. He can be a thousand men in one.
When one subtracts from life infancy (which is vegetation),—sleep, eating, and swilling—buttoning and unbuttoning—how much remains of downright existence? The summer of a dormouse.
He can be cold, detached, heartless, witty, kind, charming, sensitive. He can be a thousand men in one.
He had a beautiful style, even while writing a simple letter. You can really appreciate the power of a well-written letter, especially now, in the world of abbreviations and ridiculous acronyms (you try to write "*****ng" and just when you reach the letter "n", my God, it's impossible to continue; we all know typing the letter "g" can be such a waste of precious seconds that you can use to stare your keyboard, INCYDK—yes, that means "in case you didn't know", I can't believe you didn't get it...).
Byron, a man that lived too fast and slept with half of the female population in 19th century England (including, maybe, a half-sister), had interesting views on life, love, politics, religion. And he wrote about all that with such an irresistible humor, insightful irony, that you can't prevent yourself from falling in love with his personality, no matter how mad, bad and dangerous he may have been. On the other hand, he really loved some of his conquests, he was able to appreciate a woman's intelligence, he's been described as a loyal friend, he loved animals and he fought against the Ottoman Empire to free the Greeks. He wasn't all that bad...
Anyway, there was a time where I found myself a bit obsessed with his life, not a Lady Caroline kind of obsession, but still. There's something in him that makes you want to know more. There's a mixture of everything; melancholy, superficiality, wit, humor. I can't imagine what people felt when they actually met him.
All in all, I don't dislike his poetry, but I love his prose. I always come back to his letters and especially, his journals, made of feelings that defy time.

Can I Still Get Pregnant After a Fibroids Embolization?
- Details
- Created: October 18, 2016
- by: Leah Johnson
Many women put off treatment for fibroids because they don't want to impede their ability to become pregnant in the future. While treatments for fibroids in the past had the potential for long-term effects on successful pregnancy, modern medical advances have made it possible to treat fibroids without causing a negative effect on a women's future fertility.
The risk of delaying or avoiding treatment
First, it is in your best interest to treat for fibroids. While many women experience mild or small fibroids with few obvious symptoms, fibroids can become worse over time, growing larger or multiplying, eventually causing the symptoms to worsen. If left untreated, fibroids can cause infertility. If a woman opts against treatment to preserve her fertility, she may end up suffering infertility due to the fibroids themselves.
Historically, fibroids were treated with hysterectomies and myomectomies, both of these treatments affect fertility. Hysterectomies remove the entire uterus which makes it impossible to bear children and fertility issues are an associated risk of the myomectomy procedure. Even ablation therapy can cause some scarring to the uterus that can cause fertility issues.
However, there is an option to treat fibroid with fibroid embolization. This treatment is administered through a minimally invasive catheterization procedure, which delivers an embolic agent to the uterine artery. This agent attacks the fibroids, causing them to shrink. As the fibroids shrink, the patient's health improves and fertility can be maintained.
Fibroid embolization does not involve a surgical procedure, which can cause scarring or other damage to the uterus that can affect fertility. The procedure is typically completed with mild sedation, and the patient is kept in the hospital overnight to monitor the recovery. Most patients go home the next day and are fully back to normal activities within just five days. This quick treatment for fibroids is also very effective, with more than 90 percent of the women who have this treatment see their fibroids disappear or shrink to such small sizes that symptoms are no longer present. Other treatments can achieve similar effective results, but with much longer and more painful recoveries as well as risks to future fertility.
Where can I get more information?
If you have questions about fibroid embolization, contact the Fibroid Treatment Collective in Beverly Hills. The doctors at this practice pioneered this innovative treatment to provide a viable treatment option for women suffering from fibroids and the uncomfortable and inconvenient symptoms associated with the condition. The physicians and staff here know the treatment thoroughly and provide in-depth consultations to help women make the best choice for them to effectively treat their fibroids. The doctors will answer any questions about fibroid embolization as well as other treatment options so that each patient understands the procedures and her personal health.
Don't delay treatment for fibroids to preserve your fertility. This could backfire and there are safe effective treatment options that will preserve your ability to have a baby naturally.

surprisingly incredible, a bit intimidating at first due to so much to learn as a new dj. I learn something new every day, It does so much.
surprisingly incredible, a bit intimidating at first due to so much to learn as a new dj. I learn something new every day, It does so much.
I was a DJ for years in Boston using MIDI controllers and Ableton Live. The S4 has been a revelation. Even though I prefer more aggressive styles of DJaying, it's amazing to be able to just turn on the laptop, the s4, and get into the mix.
This is just a hands down awesome device. There is just so much control at your fingertips and what I like the best is that I never have to touch my laptop, everything you need is right there on the mixer. Thank you to the sweetwater staff, my sales engineer Karl really helped me through the process! Thanks
I purchased this device from Sweetwater. The device came in brand-new perfect, well packaged condition. Cheers to my Sweetwater engineer Chris Lewis. I have an old Numark Mixtrack unit that I've used on very simple gigs. I'm not a super DJ. I'm just your average music provider called to the scene when there are 80s parties going on and they need simple continuous mixing of music free of charge (as long as they feed me). No fancy quick hands or scratching here. The Traktor Kontrol S4 is a major step up to what I currently have. The S4 is VERY user-friendly. Everything is laid out in a very easy to understand, flowing work process. Installation was easy. Make sure you have an RCA cable to connect your S4 to a pair of powered speakers so you can easily hear what's ON AIR ,while listening to your CUEING with your headphones. Overall, this is a great investment. Not bad for the price. Buy it from Sweetwater.
Expceptional Top Notch Customer Service! Great Product in the Traktor S4 DJ Control. Love this Piece of equipment but also love the payment plans SweetWater offers along with their automatic 2 year Waranty and Free Shipping and Handling! What a Sweet Deal, watch out Guitar Center and Grandmas Music!
This does it all. Great quality knobs and faders. Seamless interface. Excellent!!!
First off let me thank Sweetwater. I placed my order from South Korea and received this amazing piece of equipment in 5 days! Wow! From the second I placed my order, to the time I opened the box, I knew there was a level of care and customer service next to none.
As for the S4... I've had about a week to test every aspect of its capabilities and I have to say I'm blown away. I'm new to Traktor as I was previously an SSL user. The interface is simple and spot on. There were no calibrations needed for the jog wheels or fine tuning what so ever. Every knob, paddle and button is sturdy and feel like they could take a beating. If I could change anything, I would make the jog wheels a bit bigger so they would feel a bit more "adult sized" but that's just my opinion. The "sync" feature is amazing. I almost feel like I'm cheating just by using it. Using the "sync" feature virtually makes every thing you do, seamless. No more stopping a track to find the perfect place to land a loop or cue... this features lays down the beginning of your cue right on the down beat. How easy is that?!
The possibilities are endless with this thing! I wanted to take the time to write a review to help encourage any of you "on the fence" trying to decide which of these to purchase. I know I read review after review, comparing multiple brands and finally made the choice. Man... I just can't say how happy I am with my purchase. Best bang for your buck!
This product is absolutely phenomenal - and this the first time I've taken the chance to review anything. It helped me get into digital DJ'ing and is a wonderful learning and performing tool. Professionally built and seamless integration with the software, I've had no problems what so ever. Plus, it looks brilliant.
I just ordered the s4 kontrol 2 days ago an got it already. the more i mess with it the more i love the thing i mean you can get really creative with all the effects and everything. i jus got an email 2 hours ago at 2: am from native instruments about the free traktor pro 2 software and quickly downloaded it the new software is frickin awesome. the have some new effects and bout 4 color waveforms and the setup wizard is fantastic. also you have the option to use cdj's or turntable with the new software as timecoded. i just love this thing
I guess the reason there have been no reviews so far is because everyone that has purchase is just having too much fun.
Slick ergonomics and very functional even for a non DJ like me.
Sound card is a 4.5. Loading times for tracks and samples fast.
I knew this was going to be a hot item and I got in on the act as soon as I heard about the release date. My sales engineer Dennis Konicki got me one of the first shipment and had it in 3 days international. Others in my country are still waiting. This is why it's important to develop a good relationship with your salesman as he is like your second brain. Thousands of miles away but a relationship built on trust. I cannot speak highly enough of my dealings with Sweetwater and that's why I keep coming back for more product.
Oh just ordered the case and payed as well.... get them while there hot !!!
I absolutely LOVE this thing! I could go on for hours about how this thing really should be priced higher due to it's capabilities and ease of use. The only thing I didn't like about it was the fader between the two jogwheels, it's almost too tight. If you're looking to do crabs I suggest replacing the fader. 8 hot ques are very helpful for getting sampling in too! essentially all the buttons you see on this thing? Imagine there being two of them, this thing is loaded with features. My favorite part about the S4 has to be the filter section. It's SO responsive. Also, you don't have to be running pre-recorded audio to get the filter section to work! I can run ANY of my audio signals (synths, vsts, guitars, anything) into my mixer, out with RCA, into the analog input, and use the filter while sequencing or looping an instrument and wow! The filters are very responsive and have a wide range. One neat trick if you're into EDM is to turn the sample speed all the way to 32, not .32 or 32., then loop on turntable in for about a second, and the other song in for about half a second. then twist each of the loop speed knobs back to .32 or 32., and either use and lfo or the faders to made a wobble bass. You can use the tempo bar or the jogwheels then to adjust the pitch, and even have more fun by alternating using the faders and filters to cut the sound in and out manually. I've had this thing for less than a month and have already figured out alot about it! It's a great tool for any dj or producer who is ready to give up using actual turntables to get a MUCH more hands on experience with your DJ-ing. I mainly use my S4 for production, but this thing is powerful. If you're considering buying it, buy it. I never owned a turntable before this one of any sort, but a lot of my friends have had them. I've messed around with numark turntables, my dad's actual turntable mixer, and even got to test out a pioneer turntable system, and if you're looking for something that will give you more than what you pay for, get it.
Overall this controller is HOT! I sold my Traktor Scratch Dua and Audio 4DJ to upgrade to the S4. I kept my 1200's and now I have a four deck digital rig that I can combine digitial and vinyl and use my 1200's as controllers or straight analong decks. It's a great rig and if I want to go portable I can just bring out the S4 and leave the 1200s behind. My only complaint is the headphone output. It's not very powerful (volumen wise) compared to my old mixer. It does have a cue mix, which I like but the lack of split cue is something I miss from my old mixer.
I did have a problem with my first unit. One of the jog wheels was intermittent but the great folks at Sweetwater took care of it right away and swapped it out for a new one that has worked flawlessly.
I must say if I could rate Sweetwater on this I would give them 10 STARS!! If you're going to buy this or anything else, buy it from Sweetwater. They have the best customer service of any retailer I have ever dealt with. These guys wrote the book!
Straight out of the box plugged it in and away it went. Seamlessly mixing tracks together. There is a lot to this and i learn a little more each time i use it. I've had it for a little over a month and am DJ'ing parties and countless people admire the equipment. You cant go wrong with Native Instruments S4!!
I had the S4 for a little over a week so far and I must say I am verty satisified. I rather use turntables anyday over a midi controller but the S4 actually impressed me. The software that is shipped with the S4 is a newer version of Traktor, pretty much a sneak preview of Traktor 2. The set up isn't cluttered its easy to get around. The 4 deck control is a breeze with assignable decks and fader preference. I wish NI made a fader control knob in the front of the S4 but it can be controled within the software. The software has the new Loop Recorder which comes in handy as well as the sample decks for live performaces. The jogwheels are on point I could get some pretty good scratches out of it. It would of been thoughtful for NI to have some type of marker on or around the jogwheel for DJs that like to look at their hands instead of the monitor. Hands down seems like the best control for Traktor & the best for the price.
I obviously like this controller. I read as much information as I thought possible prior to buy it. I wanted it to work with my machine and the Komplete 8 ultimate applications. The tutorials avillable on you tube and Native Instruments are not as helpful neither are the many different NI user manuals especially the difference of controllers and how they specifically inter react with each other. The Controller Editor is close to rocket science. My preferences with both Machine / Traktor S4 is to use it most effectively with my RME UFX Fireface Audio Interface an excellent in just about way including ease of set up and simple easily understood user manuals. It seems that the set up and the Traktor's audio interface is not the best fit to integrate most effectively with my RME set up to really operate excellent in every way I can imagine example I run three 500 watt Powered PA Monitors and a 1800 Mackie sub awesome.
My rub is it is almost impossible to locate the information on what the logical set up to use Machine / Traktor S4 with again a superior audio interface ?
The Software searches your computer and imports music files into its browser and duplicates it wasting resources and does not tell or address how to remove duplicate music files.
Once I can figure out how to effectively how to actually use the two together for a live performance /. And also a studio production I believe it can or will be a good match for me
It seems when I change settings in the S4 with machine it draws gain power from my RME interface Total Mix Digital Interface so I am still working on a solution on that and hoping to correct that .
Otherwise it is a pretty good system to use as a DJ operation as it suggests in Machine and Complete 8 ultimate documentation

|Yes, I hope you have fun with the group. Haha, Indeed! I've made the plots for it already, it's just making it. I'm cutting myself short on time I feel, but I'm determined to finish it. ^^ I just hope it all turns out the way I want it to. Well, if you are I will certainly look out for you! I do think after re-confirming with my C.C. Code Geass for the ball is a definite for us, so if we spot you, you'll most likely be pulled over for a dance. Haha! Ahh Code Black <3 I hope so! I'd love to see that cosplay! ~ Oh wow, what day are you wearing Kain? < I understand that problem, there's never enough space in my case.
|Lelouch vi Britannia

|I look forward to seeing everyone! I must say, I don't envy you the task of making the boat hat for Lelouch - it looks like quite a challenge! I may well be wearing Zero on the Sunday evening (or possibly his Code Black in Ashford attire, but that depends on whether I have time to make it or indeed space in my suitcase given that Kain will take up a lot of space!), but I'm sure we can Lelouch together at some point over the weekend. :)

|Oh yes, there's a Code Geass group on the Sunday of Kitacon ^^ You'll see some very high profile cosplayers there, haha! Unfortunately, I won't be cosplaying CG with the group since I'm in the masquerade as Lelouch on the Saturday. However, my friend is wearing C.C. to the ball on Sunday so is you spot a C.C. around be sure to ask her to dance! I may be the Lelouch escorting her, it depends. I haven't planned that far yet. ^^; Oh no, you're not intruding at all! I'm really flattered to get such a nice comment on my WIP. I don't get them too often! I'm really looking forward to this too. I look forward to seeing your Zero! ^^ Ah, thank you so much! Right back at you! :D

|Wow, I checked the Kitacon costume plans on the off-chance and it looks like there are quite a few Geass cosplayers going! I'm planning to wear Zero on the Sunday and would love to get some shots with you guys if our days coincide and you don't think I'm intruding. Either way, I look forward to seeing this costume in all its glory. Seeing your other work, it goes without saying that you're going to do an amazing job!

Skateboarding Cat Is the Ultimate Hipster [VIDEO]
Not since Marty McFly escaped from Biff Tannen has someone made skateboarding look so cool.
Not since Marty McFly escaped from Biff Tannen has someone made skateboarding look so cool.
This stalwart pooch named Tommy has been attending mass every day for the last two months. Is he really just that pious? Or is there another reason for his attendance?
Cats have, shall we say, a bit of a reputation for being not the friendliest of species. We would like to dispel that myth.
Just say no, even if you're not a person.
Kickoff meets lickoff in the Puppy Bowl X.
If you're going to watch porn, go for it. I don't judge. But, be careful what ears are around. It could very well come back to haunt you with a house full of guests or even worse...
Unlike cats, dogs aren't expected to be naturally brilliant jumpers.
This probably isn't what you think of when you hear about a catfight.
Oh, Florida, don't ever change.
Yes, cold weather has seemingly blasted its way to just about every corner of the country, but not everyone is down about it.
"Cats always land on their feet," as the saying goes. Well, not all cats.
To say that cats are curious is an understatement. To say that they approach something unfamiliar with trepidation is also an understatement. So when you add some musical accompaniment, naturally hilarity ensues!

Murchison meteorites, Murchion. Victoria, Australia.
The Murchison meteorite may be a fragment of a comet. It contains ancient grains that formed in stars long before the solar system was formed. Also present are organic molecules such as amino acids — the building blocks of life — that may provide clues to the origins of life. Image: Rodney StartSource: Museum Victoria

Cranbourne No. 10,Cranbourne, Victoria, Australia
When the Cranbourne meteorite broke up, it fell along a flight path stretching from Beaconsfield in the north-east to Langwarrin in the south-west. Thirteen masses of this large iron meteorite have been recovered so far. The largest, called Cranbourne No. 1, was found in 1854 near Cranbourne and weighed 3.5 tonnes.

Although only 16 meteorites have been found in Victoria, several are of scientific significance. Only Murchison was witnessed falling. Because meteorites are best preserved in dry environments where weathering is slower, most of Victoria's meteorites have been found in the central and north-western parts of the state.

Alien Nuclear Wars Might Be Visible From Earth
J Thoendell stashed this in Space
Source: http://theatlantic.com/technology/are...
In a recent New Yorker article, the nuclear historian Alex Wellerstein collected testimony from several people who saw, firsthand, the flash from the first successful detonation of the atomic bomb, at the infamous Trinity Test, on July 16, 1945.
Wellerstein has a writer's feel for quotes and anecdotes. According to one general, the flash was a "golden, purple, violet, gray, and blue light" that illuminated "every peak, crevasse, and ridge" of a nearby mountain range, "with a clarity and beauty that cannot be described." Wellerstein notes that several eyewitnesses described Trinity's light as "cosmic." This was apropos, he says, for nowhere else, "except in the interiors of stars do temperatures reach into the tens of millions of degrees," as they do during a nuclear explosion.
A team of astronomers recently tried to determine whether Trinity's light might be cosmic in a different sense. The Trinity test involved only one explosion. But if there were many more explosions, involving many more nuclear weapons, it might generate enough heat and light to be seen from nearby stars, or from the deeper reaches of our galaxy—so long as someone out there was looking.
What will this light tell us? A remarkable amount, it turns out. Light encounters all kinds of molecules as it makes its way through the universe, and it keeps a close record of these encounters, in its spectra. If sunlight were to beam through Earth's atmosphere, and then out into the stars, it would travel with this detailed chemical record in tow. If, after some millennia, this earth-kissed light fell into a distant astronomer's telescope, that astronomer would be able to determine what sorts of chemicals were present in our planet's atmosphere. They would know that water vapor was present, and life too, because Earth's atmosphere contains methane gas, breathed out by the trillions of organisms that live on its surface. Indeed, it's precisely these sorts of "biosignatures" that Earth's astronomers hope to find in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets.
Light from extrasolar planets might also tell us whether our universe is home to other tool-making beings. After all, some of our pollutants leave behind chemical traces that would never occur naturally. If we glimpsed these pollutants in a distant planet's atmosphere, we could be reasonably certain that technological life lived on its surface at one time or another.
Stashed in: Light, The Universe, Awesome, Aliens!, SETI
Cosmic pollutants as evidence that helps us search for intelligent life? Makes sense to me.
Wouldn't it be wonderfully ironic if garbage is the way advanced civilizations find each other?

An Indian village council forbids girls to carry mobile phones before marriage
November 25, 2010 at 6:23 pm
A village council in northern India has decided to ban the use of mobile phones for women before marriages lest they arrange marriages behind their fathers' backs, which is often punished by death.
The Village Council decided instead that boys could use phones, but only under the supervision of their parents. The Board fears that young people could use phones to arrange elopement. Local associations in defense of women's rights have denounced the ban as unfair and regressive.
Marriage between members of the same clan are forbidden by the Hindu custom in parts of northern India where marriages are traditionally arranged by parents. Last month, 34 couples have fled in the district of Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh, police said.
"Three girls were beheaded by the male members of their family after they eloped" with boys from their same clan, said police assistant director general Brij Lal in the state capital of Lucknow.

Hey there, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to all this, I just decided to make a Zam (to join our local 501st) 4 days ago, and since then I've practically lived at this site, so I wanted to say hello to all of you who have given me such great ideas. In the past two days, I have made 5 "greeblies", and some leather pieces, and I have tons of ideas now.
I'm a full-time student so, unfortunately, my budget is going to be way lower than what all of you seem to be spending, which means making more things myself from scratch. It will be a good learning opportunity! I am a fairly experienced costumer, making Halloween, Fantasy and Historical costumes for over ten years. Even with that, this seems challenging (itâs so detailed, with so many parts) but Iâm determined. We donât have anyone doing Zam here, so Iâm excited. Iâll post progress updates eventuallyâ¦

text: This is a follow up to previous posts (including this one) about the late, legendary Civil War relic hunter, Tom Dickey and his method of defusing live CW artillery shells. Fascinating and great1974 vintage video - a bit funny too. I love his classic Southern drawl. One of my relic hunting acquaintances recently told me of an unexploded Hotchkiss shell found during the last spring plowing here in the Shenandoah Valley not too far from my home. Be careful out there.
