History of Science and Medicine is a semi-autonomous, interdisciplinary Program in the History Department. It provides a framework in which students at all levels can examine the development of science, technology, and medicine in relationship with society. Students examine a wide range of issues in the past for their own sake and their relevance to the present. These topics include science in the Enlightenment; medicine and public health in western societies; science and medicine in China and Latin America; science, technology, industry, and national security; molecular biology and biotechnology; epidemics and chronic diseases; drugs and the pharmaceutical industry; eugenics and human genetics; plant and animal breeding; evolutionary biology and its social applications; the cultural history of the body; and colonial medicine and global health. An important feature of the Program is its strong link to the History of Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, where a number of its faculty members have their primary appointment.
As a field, HSHM prepares students for a better understanding of the world in which we live as well as for a wide variety of careers, including medicine, public health, academic life, museum work, journalism, law, industry, and public service. Students study under the guidance of a diverse and expanding faculty with expertise in many disciplines, periods, and societies. The links here invite you to explore the curriculum at the graduate and undergraduate levels; to examine the requirements for the BA, M.A, and Ph.D degrees; to view the research and teaching interests of the faculty; to get information about the conferences and colloquia sponsored by the Program; and to find the contact information of our staff.
Our Next HSHM Colloquium
Our next HSHM Colloquium will be held on April 21, 2014. The guest lecturer will be Bridget E. Gurtler, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Center for Health & Wellbeing, Woodrow Wilson School of Public & International Affairs, Princeton University. The colloquium will be held in the Hall of Graduate Studies, 320 York Street, room HGS 211, at 4:30 p.m. The title of Dr. Gurtler's talk is "Rehabilitating Veterans, Formulating Fatherhood: Disability and the Gendered Politics of Assisted Reproduction in Cold War America."

What is the 'rule' when it comes to spices and sauces?Im more concerned with dinner meals,for example if im making a pasta - can i have it with a normal pasta sauce which you typically get in the stores?or having lean mince with a sauce?Things like gravy,soups etc? Are spices OK in general too?
I can only speak for myself and my personal experience. I use lemon pepper, garlic and seasoning salt for almost everything. I bought these spice at Whole Foods. Watch the salt intake, you could bloat. As for spaghetti sauce, I make my own by stewing down canned San Marzano tomatoes from Whole Foods. Most spaghetti sauces are high in sugar/sodium. If you make spaghetti sauce it is quite good to use chicken bre**ast or ground turkey bre**ast in your sauce. Add fresh veggies and vwala!
I don't use butter at all. I use a tsp. of lite mayo on my turkey wrap that I make. I use 1.5 tsp. of lite mayo for my tuna sandwich. I don't do gravy. I use about 1 TBSP. of balsamic vinaigrette dressing on a salad. I really try and cut out any extras. I have enjoyed tasting food in its original state. I have slathered so much junk on food for so long that I had forgotten how good it can be.
Just watch for the sodium counts in spices. I think you'll be fine if you just watch for that.
Watch the extras! They'll sneak up on you and bite you in the butt!
Have fun experimenting with food!
Great recipe...spray evoo on a pan. Sprinkle seasoning salt, garlic and lemon pepper on fresh salmon. Drizzle sugar free maple syrup LIGHTLY on the salmon. (Not maple flavored - real sugar free maple syrup...Whole Foods has it). 420 degrees for 12-14 minutes. Mmmmmmm! You could line the back of the pan with asparagus. Spray with EVOO. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Same temperature and time in oven. Great texture and flavor for asparagus.
Keep the faith!
Faithful Renee :0)
Spices! Go for it. Sauces could be a stumbling block. Made from scratch you would know what goes in them. I don't like sauce mixes in those little packets for the reason that Renee mentioned above. I love different flavors and I'm trying new recipes for clean sauces every week. So far everything is tomato based and it is starting to bore me. I may just have to get used to that or get more creative. Today and Tomorrow are my cooking days for the week so I'll post something if it works out.
I started using tomato paste in place of mayo on wraps-------YUMMMMMYYYY
all the lycopene has to be good for me too
Ok, question:
I use about three teaspoons of Smart Balance organic "butter" every day. It's made of of soybean, olive, and palm fruit oil. Is that allowed?
"The joy of life is the fruit of discipline" -S. Randall
For the sauces, I always look at the sodium content and go from there. Some, like hot sauces are really high so you want to watch those for sure.
thanks guys for the input!! :) think ive got a clear indication now....woohoo
What about flax seed oil? I guess it counts as fat. Does anyone use that? Or do you leave out fats all together, because they work their way in in other stuff???
I use dry seasoning blends for all of my meats, because it's typcially healthier than using a sauce. My favorites: Mrs. Dash (southwest chipotle, lemon pepper), Grill Mates (herb & garlic, bbq, montreal steak, montreal chicken), citrus grill seasoning & cajun seasoning for seafood.
Pasta sauce: I look for the lowest carb and sugar. Try to aim for 12 g carbs or less and 6 g sugar or less. Barilla is usually a safe bet, but don't forget that this should be considered a part of your carbohydrate if you're using it with whole wheat pasta.. Take a look at the marinara labels at the store next time.....shocking how much sugar some have, so stick to the 6 g sugar rule to limit the sugar. Sticking with ones that are "traditiional" or "tomato and basil" or "roasted garlic" seem to have less junk in them too, so pick the simpler varieties. I have found that using spagetti squash instead of pasta (lower calorie and lower carbs) with a sauce of Barilla roasted garlic and ground white turkey *** is the best way to go for me personally. Makes a much larger plate of food for less calories, sugars, and carbs.
I personally do not focus my first priority in choosing foods based on the sodium content. I'm more focused on ridding my diet of sugar and maintaining that 40/40/20 ratio for most meals, so I avoid ketchup, bbq sauce, and other things with high sugar and carbs.
I use a ton of different types of flavored mustards for wraps, sandwiches, and other snacks. You really can't go wrong with mustards in my opinion. Being mindful of sodium is good for people who are prone to having high blood pressure that worsens with high sodium intake, but not all people are affected by sodium negatively in this way. You don't want to be piling on huge amounts of seasoning to every dinner, but having a bunch of different ways to season your foods and having a variety of different healthier condiments helps to keep the food interesting.
In response to flax seed oil.....that is a fat, and yes you can add it to a meal as a fat. Fat does work it's way into some foods, such as salmon, but fats aren't built into many other foods. In meals where you don't have any fats and want to add flax seed oil, that is perfectly acceptable...just watch the portion!
Emily you are right on about the Grill Mates. They are the best!! Personally I found that the Montreal Chicken seasoning tastes great on pork. I love lean pork chops cooked over the stove top in a light amount of extra virg olive oil and Montreal Chicken seasoning sprinkled on top. I found the smaller containers are a little pricey at the grocery store but you can get huge containers (not ridiculously huge) at Sam's club or Costco. Much more cost effective.
I also like crushed red pepper flakes for a little more spice.
Renee that Salmon recipe sounds awesome! I am gonna make that Sat night now. Rock on!

And Rickey Henderson is fresh off the 2008 ballot, now that he is in a Dodgers uniform, prompting some lesser Cooperstown candidates to sigh with relief.
That's the view into the immediate future from the manicured lawn of the Clark Sports Center, where Carter and Murray were inducted Sunday afternoon as the 255th and 256th members of the Hall.
The ballot of Hall of Fame eligibles evolves every year, as all 10-year veterans retired for five years are added and candidates who missed the five-percent-vote minimum the previous election are dropped.
It is an orderly, routine process year after year. Well, prepare for a major spike in 2007, when possibly the greatest group of first-year eligibles ever will land on the ballot.
Cal Ripken Jr., Tony Gwynn and Mark McGwire will headline a dozen-plus bona fide worthies making their first appearances on the ballot. Only Mr. 2,632, the greatest post-World War II hitter, and the charter member of the very private 70-homer club.
Other first-time candidates in 2007 will include Harold Baines, Scott Brosius, Jose Canseco, Eric Davis, Stan Javier, Wally Joyner, Paul O'Neill, and Bret Saberhagen.
Baines had 384 homers and 1,628 RBIs in a 22-year career, and was so good, the White Sox retired his number 12 years before he retired. Canseco bashed 462 homers and was a cornerstone of an Oakland American League West reign. Joyner had his own WallyWorld and O'Neill still owns The Bronx.
And that's still just for starters. Luis Sojo, Jay Buhner, Kevin Tapani, Bobby Bonilla, Dante Bichette, Darrin Fletcher, Todd Stottlemyre and Andy Benes are more names who will take their ballot bow in 2007.
The worthy candidates among them, for whom prospects will be dim in 2007, are looking a lot better for 2008, now that Henderson is out of the picture.
The 2008 freshman class will be far less imposing, with Tim Raines topping a modest list that will also include Dave Martinez, Mike Morgan, David Justice and Randy Velarde.
Hall balloting is competitive in the sense that voters, tenured members of the Baseball Writers Association of America, are limited to 10 selections annually. That is why, as blue-ribbon candidates are elected and leave the ballot, others' vote percentages rise yearly, perhaps hitting the 75 percent target for election.
For instance, Carter began his campaign with a mere 42 percent in 1998 and became a sixth-year electee with 78 percent. Murray was a first-year choice, with 85.3 percent.
Of the other 31 on the 2003 ballot, missing in 2004 will be another 14, 13 of whom didn't meet the five percent requirement and Jim Kaat, who used up his 15-year eligibility.
The holdovers will be Bruce Sutter, Jim Rice, Andre Dawson, Ryne Sandberg, Lee Smith, Goose Gossage, Bert Blyleven, Steve Garvey, Tommy John, Jack Morris, Alan Trammell, Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy, Dave Concepcion, Dave Parker, Fernando Valenzuela and Keith Hernandez.
They will be joined by a group of first-time eligibles that incudes at least one candidate considered by many a first-ballot lock: Dennis Eckersley, who
revolutionized the art of the closer following a successful career as a starting pitcher.
Paul Molitor and his 3,319 hits will also surface on the 2004 ballot. Other newcomers will include Joe Carter, Jimmy Key, Dave Stieb, Lenny Dykstra, Dennis Martinez, Terry Pendleton, Juan Samuel, Bob Tewksberry and Joey Cora.
Wade Boggs, who retired with 3,010 hits, will headline a modest group of 2005 ballot newcomers also including Tom Candiotti, Chili Davis, Willie McGee, Jeff Montgomery, Terry Steinbach, Jeff King, Jim Abbott and Mike Macfarlane.
First sneak peak at the 2006 ballot: rookie candidates will include Albert Belle, Will Clark, Gary Gaetti, Orel Hershiser, Gregg Jeffries, Rick Aguilera, Hal Morris and Dwight Gooden.
All recognizable names who had their turns in the spotlight. An orderly, yearly trickle which will turn into a gusher in 2007. Can you stand the wait?

Whoa old thread. Anyway, June 2001, 8th grade/middle school graduation party thing on a boat. Hash Pipe. My friends requested the song and I liked it I guess, but I had trouble REALLY liking anything that wasn't the Beatles. Didn't fall in love until the 2001 VMA performance.
Purchased TBA and Pinkerton shortly after, as my friend said, "The Internet says those are better." I think she bought Blue and I bought Pink, making Pink my first purchased album ever. 2001 also saw my first concert ever (also Weezer). Lots of firsts up in here.
Geeez. Pork and Beans. Didn't like it though.
Few months later listened to Buddy Holly. Thought it was Okay but not Great.
A month after that I stumbled upon No Other One, Pink Triangle and El Scorcho on youtube while bored. Fell in love. Bought Pinkerton and then Blue.
Im now 17 and Pinkerton is essentially the soundtrack for my life currently <3
Beverley Hills.
Its still one of my all time favorites :)
Beverly Hills i know i'm so late

Major Loss Fire
Update, 10 am Pacific: Fire is out, scroll down.
A THREE-ALARM FIRE IS WORKING IN EL MONTE, California, this morning in the Mountain View high school. The fire that was discovered and dispatched around 2:30 am Pacific appears to have started in the cafeteria area of the multi-building campus and then got above the ceiling into the roof void where it has been spreading through the entire building.
KTLA-TV has posted some good, early video taken from their helicopter HERE.
The large 200-foot by 200-foot building also houses a maintenance shop and student store.
Firefighters began with an aggressive interior attack, but had to pull back into defensive mode due to a partial building collapse.
There were six ladder trucks and about 150 firefighters at the scene. Crews were working to keep the flames from spreading to any other buildings. The cafeteria building appeared to be a total loss.
So far there is no indication of what started the fire. This is still a working incident and no further information is available.
Update, 10 am Pacific:
The fire is now out and was contained to the original fire building. The Los Angeles Times reports:
Dispatchers received multiple 911 calls about the blaze at about 2:30 a.m., said Tony Imbrenda, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County Fire Department. The first firefighters to arrive at the school reported "heavy smoke and fire" and called for a second alarm, he said.
Dangerous conditions inside the building, including collapsing facade and roof material, forced firefighters to withdraw and take a defensive approach, Imbrenda said. The third alarm was called in about 3:15 a.m., bringing the total number of personnel fighting the blaze to 150.
"It was a big fire," Imbrenda said, noting some flames exceeded 75 feet in height.
The fire was knocked down just after 6:30 a.m., Imbrenda said. A bulldozer was brought in to pull down burning embers, and crews remained on scene hours later to continue cleanup efforts.

The idea doesn´t bother me at all. And producers often will say anything to hype interest in their next production.If their remarks make you furious then all the better for the ratings.

I gave up on the great wasteland long ago. I only watch news and some science programs, nothing more. I wonder what is deficient in someone that would make them seriously interested in this program and what happens on it.If I cold only get my beloved Kookette weaned off the one eyed monster I´d cancel Dish Network and use the widescreen for a monitor.

Sounds like a remake of a Soviet-era TV program called "I Serve the Soviet Union."

I´m confident that Mr. Fields´ new show will ignore one of the telling aspects of the 1980´s KGB officer cadre. When the Soviet Union began to implode, beginning with the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, many KGB officers, realizing they would not be welcome in Russia´s new SVR, exploited their language skills and professional connections to find gainful employment in Russia´s expanding organized crime enterprises.

Receive your quote directly from Polymer Char for CFC - High resolution Cross-Fractionation Chromatograph for Polyolefins
High resolution cross-fractionation of Polyolefins has been made possible through the new Polymer Char's CFC fully automated instrument. Two-dimensional distribution relating molar mass and composition variables is often required for comprehensive characterization of complex materials, and complete cross-fractionation is the only technique which has determined it with no loss of information.
High resolution cross-fractionation of Polyolefins has been made possible through the new Polymer Char's CFC fully automated instrument. Two-dimensional distribution relating molar mass and composition variables is often required for comprehensive characterization of complex materials, and complete cross-fractionation is the only technique which has determined it with no loss of information.
This compact automated instrument fractionates the polymer according to crystallinity, following a TREF separation process (Temperature Rising Elution Fractionation). Meanwhile, the resulting fractions are continuously injected towards the online GPC columns where a second fractionation, this time according to molar mass, is performed.
Polymer Char's analytical CFC technology overcomes the difficulties of preparative fractionation methods which are sometimes tedious and time consuming. The full bivariate distribution is now measured in hours instead of days, with limited solvent consumption and no manual intervention, in an intrinsically safe setup.
Virtual instrumentation software allows flexible method development so that analysis time and resolution can be optimized. A powerful and intuitive software package is available for data processing, columns calibration and graphical representation of distributions, allowing different views of the data.
· Analytical scale automated instrument for cross-fractionation of Polyolefins.
· Comprehensive information on molar mass and composition distributions in a single analysis.
· Analysis of up to five samples sequentially with no supervision required.
· Two samples per day can be analyzed under standard conditions.
· No solvents handling, fully automated process including a final cleaning of the vessels, columns and lines.
· Benchtop instrument.
· Possibility of subambient operation (down to -20ºC) for low crystallinity samples.
· Flexible definition of fractions number and temperatures.
· Calculations package with a compatible database to an easy access to all the analyses.
· Bivariate distribution results presented as contours or 3D surface graphs.
· GPC and TREF recovered profiles directly calculated.
· Possibility of connecting a composition sensor in the infrared detector.
Infrared Detector IR4 OEM
IR4 is the standard detector incorporated by default in all the Polymer Char analytical instruments in its OEM version. IR4 is a dual wavelength stand-alone infrared detector, which uses the principle of infrared absorption spectroscopy to measure the concentration and composition in polyolefins.
IR4 is designed to measure on-line concentration and composition in HPLC, GPC or to couple it with other separation techniques like CRYSTAF, TREF, etc., and it has been proved as the most appropriate detector for polyolefins.
When adding a composition or a carbonyls sensor, other useful information can be obtained in addition to the concentration.
A high sensitivity capillary viscometer is an ideal complement to the Infrared detector in some polyolefin characterization instruments such as GPC-IR, TREF, CEF or CRYSTEX.
Viscometer configuration is optimized to achieve a better performance in each technique.
Infrared Detector IR5 MCT
IR5 MCT is a stand-alone infrared detector with a flow through cell, which incorporates interference filters at five different wavelengths and a thermoelectrically cooled MCT detector with a high sensitivity (no liquid Nitrogen required).
IR5 MCT is designed to determine concentration and composition on-line in HPLC, GPC or to couple it with other separation techniques such as CRYSTAF, TREF, CEF or CFC.
When attached to a high temperature GPC for the analysis of polyolefins, the IR5 MCT detector provides excellent sensitivity and baseline stability in both concentration and composition (branch content) signals. To couple an IR5 with a GPC instrument is an ideal combination for measuring very low number of branches in HDPE pipe resins thanks to its high sensitivity, which is able to distinguish differences of up to 1 branch per 1,000 atoms of carbon.
The CFC Virtual Instrumentation Software controls the whole analytical process combining GPC and TREF techniques to obtain the bivariate distribution. The whole process is automated from the sample preparation to a final cleaning of the vessels, lines and columns, therefore, there is no solvents handling and when the instrument finishes the analysis, it is ready to start a new run of up to 5 samples.
Analysis conditions are flexible so they can be specifically adapted to each sample requirements; software can manage all needed TREF fractions in temperature steps down to 1ºC resolution. Additionally, parameters related to the analytical process such as cooling and heating rates, volume, temperature and time among others can be set from the software analysis conditions screen for each run. As the set of conditions used for a certain run can be saved as a method file to be loaded at any time, the start of the analysis can be as simple as putting the samples into the crystallization vessels and pressing the Start button in the software. Results can be reviewed and calculated when its analytical process is finished, even though the instrument is running other samples.
The CFC Software includes a powerful calculations package, capable of obtaining directly the 3 dimensional graph to study the interdependence of the Molar Mass and the Chemical Composition Distribution of each sample. In addition to the 3D plot, the GPC and TREF recovered profiles are calculated too. Molar mass average values for each TREF fraction are provided as well.
Analyzed samples can be reviewed, overlaid, printed, etc… at any time thanks to the database installed in the CFC Software package and linked to the calculations

Red Carpet Movie Premiere — The Kindergarten Tree
You have read my series of posts, Behind the Scenes, and now our movie is ready to be published. Because we had submitted the movie to the San Diego County Office of Education's Innovative Videos in Education (iVIE) Awards, we had to wait until the judging was complete before posting it. We are so excited to announce that our movie was nominated for an award! Just last Thursday we held a red carpet movie premiere night comparable to a Hollywood premiere. Click "read more" to view our class movie and learn more about our magical movie premiere.
Picture the Scene
Five- and 6-year-olds dressed up, wearing corsages, excited about presenting their movie. Screams erupt when I tell them they are taking a limo to the MPR instead of walking. They walk outside to see a stretch Hummer in front of them. Lights flash and people all over cheer as one by one they strut down the red carpet in front of the movie banner.
This doesn't sound like a typical kindergarten performance, does it? It sounds more like a Hollywood movie premiere, and that's exactly what it's like.
Because my students worked so hard on making this movie, I wanted to make the premiere a special event. I decided to host a red carpet event just like one I did a few years ago. The parents were instrumental in pulling this exciting event off for their children. The children planned the presentation, which showed the utmost professionalism, unexpected from 5- and 6-year-olds. In the presentation, the students explained and demonstrated the filming techniques they used and reflected on the learning they acquired and the process of creating the movie. There was not a soul in the room that couldn't tell the amount of learning that had taken place during this project.
Without further ado, we give you The Kindergarten Tree:
It has been four years since I first put the camera into my students' hands and started creating student movies. With that bold move, I grew as a teacher. I learned from my students that little children can be the most creative, responsible, professional, and intelligent little beings. With that move, I allowed my students to walk the learning journey with me, side by side. If you just give them the chance and make it meaningful for them, children will step up and exceed your expectations. Every year and every day I am amazed and proud, but not surprised, at what they can do.
Teaching Tip
When putting on student performances, no matter how big or small, always involve the students. They should be a part of planning and writing the presentation. Giving students the opportunity to be a part of the planning will open up many more learning opportunities. For our movie premiere, the students were responsible for writing three papers each. They needed to write their introduction for their walk down the red carpet, their award acceptance speech, and a piece about one part of the process of creating our movie. The students had to work on sequencing to make sure the performance order made sense and on their fluency when reading their parts. The learning goes on and on.
We hope you have enjoyed our movie, and we would love to hear your comments. Please also take a few minutes to watch all of the other amazing student-created films submitted to the San Diego County iVIE Awards.

There is a certain glamor and class about strapless dresses. It is a highly distinctive style that Facebook April Fool Status can't be matched by any other neckline. Renowned fashion labels and designers are opting for this style. Strapless can either be straight or in the shape of a heart which is Easter Messages better known by the name of sweetheart neckline.

Create image ads in different sizes
Want to make an impression on customers with engaging graphics? Use image ads to capture people's attention as they browse websites in the Google Display Network. The network contains thousands of sites and apps, from online newspapers to blogs to Google websites, such as Blogger. Image ads give you a way to entice customers to your website, using a combination of graphics and text.
In this article, you'll learn about:
- Supported ad sizes for images ads on desktops
- High-end mobile devices
- How to create image ads
- How to use the Ad gallery
If you've browsed websites and seen large graphic ads across the top of a webpage, then you're already familiar with what image ads look like. Here's an example of an image ad on a fitness site (highlighted in red):
Snazzy, huh? AdWords image ads can appear in a variety of pre-approved sizes, which are measured in pixels. Use images to simply drive awareness of your brand or increase clicks and traffic to your website.
Let's say you sell hand-knitted scarves online and you want to generate more sales. Create image ads to showcase your scarves and target Display Network websites that sell clothing and accessories. Or perhaps you just want more people to learn about your brand and are not necessarily concerned with sales. In that case, you might want to use image ads on blogs or forums for knitting enthusiasts.
Supported ad sizes and formats
Before creating your ad in AdWords, you'll need to prepare an image file that is sized and formatted appropriately. The size and format requirements depend on where you plan to show your ad -- websites on desktop browsers or on mobile devices.
You can run multiple kinds of ads, not just image ads, from the same AdWords account and, in some cases, from the same campaign. Learn about the different campaign types and available ad formats.Specs for image ads on desktop browsers

- 320 x 100 large mobile banner is also available.
- Once you've created your ad, make sure you choose the right device settings for your campaign in order to show the ad on high-end mobile devices. More about high-end mobile ads
- You can also create image ads for WAP-enabled devices, which usually have a smaller screen. More about WAP image ads
The ad examples above appear as they would on an XHTML mobile web page. The appearance of an ad's "user bar" -- consisting of an "[Ad]" tag and the Display URL -- can vary slightly depending upon a page's markup language.
Additional specs
We've covered just the basic specs above. Please check our image ad advertising policies for more requirements about animated image ads, Flash ads, and general ad content. Make sure you have the necessary permissions for the image you're using.
Creating your image ad
Click the links below to see step-by-step directions for building your image ad in the following two different ways:
- Upload a standard image ad: If you have an ad file prepared, upload it in AdWords.
- Use Ad gallery image ad templates: You can also take advantage of available templates in Ad gallery to build a custom ad. Use a mix of images you upload and images we provide in our stock image gallery, and edit the content of your image within the tool.
- Sign in to AdWords at http://adwords.google.com.
- Click the Campaigns tab.
- Click the Ads tab within the page.
- Click the + New ad menu and select Image ad. Don't see this option? Check that your ad campaign is set to show ads on the Display Network.
- In the "Select an ad group" section, choose the campaign and ad group that you'd like your new ad to be a part of. Your ad will use the settings you selected for that campaign and ad group.
- Upload your ad file and fill out the fields in the "New image ad" section. Make sure your file conforms to the ad size and format guidelines above. Both the ad name and Display URL are used for reporting and approval reasons only, and won't actually be displayed in your ad.
- Preview your ad on the right. If it looks good, click Save.
Once you save your image ad, we'll review your ad to make sure it's meets our advertising policies. Once approved, depending on your ad content and your campaign settings, your ad can start running almost immediately.
- Sign in to AdWords at http://adwords.google.com.
- Select the campaign or ad group where you want to create your image ad.
- Select the Ads tab.
- Select Ad gallery on the New ad menu above the statistics table. If you don't see this option, make sure your campaign is set to target the Display Network.
- Choose an image-based template from the gallery.
- Complete the required fields of the template, including uploading any images. You'll be able to preview what your ad will look like as you build your ad. You can select from our stock of free images, your media library of previously uploaded content, or use an image hosted on your own site.
- Click Next to preview your ad again in all the available image sizes. Deselect the checkboxes for any sizes that don't display your ad content correctly.
- Click Save Ad when you are finished.
Once you save your image ad, we'll review your ad to make sure it's okay within our advertising policies. Once approved, depending on your ad content and your campaign settings, your ad can start running almost immediately.
Not all devices support Flash. To help you reach customers using devices that don't support Flash, AdWords can create a non-Flash version of the ad for you. You should see an option to preview a non-Flash version of your ad when you upload a Flash file. Don't see this option? Make sure your SWF file uses ActionScript 2.0 and avoid filters or blending if possible.
AdWords can convert Flash to HTML5, which can be viewed on most major desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. The converted ad may not be 100% identical to the Flash ad you created, so be sure to preview it before saving. Most shapes, embedded fonts, timeline animation, text, movie clips, buttons, and scripting are supported, but not filters or blending. The system automatically determines which version of your ad to show, based on the device that your customer is using.
It's a good idea to include text in your image ad, such as a brief product description or a call-to-action to reinforce your ad's message. This also helps people realize they can actually engage with your ad, instead of assuming it's there for eye candy. See more tips for creating effective display ads
Want to showcase your product images on Google search results? Consider creating product ads.
Keep in mind
A small "x" appears in the corner of image ads on the Google Display Network, like in the example below.
When people click the "x," they tell Google that they no longer want to see ads from that ad's web domain. This means that, in the future, Google will try to avoid showing people ads associated with this ad campaign URL. For example, if someone mutes an ad from mikesmountaineering.com, ads at the domain level of mikesmountaineering.com as well as specific pages like mikesmountaineering.com/hikingboots will be muted. This feature gives consumers control over the ads they see, and advertisers don't need to pay to show ads to people who aren't interested in them.
Next steps
- Choose where your ads should appear on the Display Network. Learn about available targeting methods
- Determine what bid option to use for your image ad campaign, based on your business goals.
- Find out if your ad has been approved
- Once it's been running for awhile, track how your ad is performing.

Defenitly The best – Went for laser hair removal. Dr. Kulkin is a delight, as is the rest of his staff. Would never go anywhere else. Awesome, cant say enough good things about them.
Atlanta's Best Laser Hair Removal – My experience with WIFH has been nothing short of exceptional. I met with another leading Laser Hair removal agency in Atlanta as well but chose to go with Dr. Kulkin and his staff. He has done such a great job making the hair on my chest, abdomen, and back disappear that it is indescribable. He knows exactly what he is doing and his sheer confidence puts me at ease. Saying he is an expert is certainly an understatement... I would recommend WIFH to anyone
Great for laser and Botox – WIFH is the best place to go for laser hair removal. The office is open on Sat which is a huge plus. I have had amazing results with my laser hair removal. I had my first time with Botox at WIFH and I love it. I've recomemnded WIFH to several friends.
New Me after Smartlipo – No more belly!! I've been trying to lose my belly after having 3 kids and no matter what I did, it didn't work. Dr. Kulkin explained the smartlipo procedure to me and it was just as he said. His PA held my hand through the procedure since I was awake and I had no pain. I was out to the movies the next day and did not miss any work. I lost 5 pounds and went from a size 6 to a 4! Dr. Kulkin told me the lipo would not be to lose weight but would take inches off....he was right. I'm totally happy!
The Best of the Best for Laser – I have been to 3 laser places before my friends told me about WIFH. I had my bikini, undearms and lower legs treated and it is a treat. This summer I had to barely shave at all. I saw Dr. Kulkin for my consult and Shayna, a PA and
Ashlee a Nurse Practitioner for my laser sessions. They are great. Now I'm doing Botox (for the first time) and I'm hooked. My appointments always started on time---I don't have time to wait! Love it.
What I love at WIFH are the people who really care. They would not laser my eyebrows because they said it was not safe and they would not laser my sister who has blond hair. They said it would be a waist of money. I trust them and have sent neighbors who love them too.
Simply the Best – I have gone to WIFH for the past few years for my laser hair removal, Botox and Juvederm. Dr. Kulkin and his staff have treated me royally. They are the most caring people and they will do anything to help meet your goals. My friends always tell me how great I look but they'll never know it's because of everyone at
Best in Atlanta – WIFH did laser hair removal treatments on my bikini, arms and legs and I could not have been happier with the results. Every member of the staff was courteous and professional. I cannot say enough good things about my experience here. If you are even contemplating a treatment, it is worth your time to sit down with Dr. Kulkin!
Thank you. We do believe that meeting for consults with our patients is critical so we can discuss what to expect from various treatments. Thanks for your kind words.
Jay Kulkin, MD
Smart Lipo – Dr. Kulkin and his staff couldn't have been more professional, knowledgeable, experienced, responsive, or personable. WIFH offers an impressive array of cutting-edge cosmetic services and procedures at highly competitive costs. After having a SmartLipo procedure, I experienced some discomfort which gradually diminished over several weeks but there was no pain and the results are amazing! Although I live in Virginia, I won't hesitate to return for other services, especially given the level of quality care I received.
WIFH=Perfect Pampering! – They tell you the truth and will not sell you something that will not work for you. Incredibly gentle and kind. Making you feel special at each appointment. Work with you on treatments that are the best for you. I have recommended 3 friends whom are all WIFH patients won over by the professionalism, amazing procedures and incredible staff. An added bonus is the awesome pricing. This place cannot be beat!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can not tell you how hard we all work to make our patients experience exceptional. We are always looking for ways to get better and promise we will continue to get even better.
Jay Kulkin, MD
President and Founder
Laser Hair Removal – My girlfriend and I had our bikini line done here and the results were excellent. Very gentle. Not like other places some of my friends have been to.

I'm brand new to Dreamweaver CS5.5 and here is my problem:
I've made an html page in dreamweaver with a banner, with an additional graphic and some text on top of the banner. It displays just fine in every browser when I view from the local folder, but when I open DW and view, it displays incorrectly in all three design, live and browser views within DW. If I make changes to the css file until it views correctly in design view, it no longer displays correctly from the local folder and it still doesn't view correctly in live or browser view within DW. If what I'm doing isnt going to display accurately in any of the views provided by Dreamweaver as compared to the live server, whats the point in having this software? I could just keep building webpages in notepad and uploading with CoreFTP.
Any suggestions? Is it some setting that I dont know about that I need to change within DW? Please help.
Please post a link to the file you are talking about. Also, what browsers have you tried it in?
Here is the link to the server: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc/ if you notice the doctor bag and phone number are centered to each other and the bag is centered between the house logo and the diagonal line. The other side text is centered between the diagonal line and the text underneath the house logo. This is the way it is suppose to look and it looks this way in IE, firefox, Safari, Opera, and chrome.
But this is how it looks in DW
Design view screen shot:
Live Code screen shot:
Live view screen shot:
Thank you so much for looking at this for me, I really appreciate your help!!
I've added 3 links and it displays perfect in the browser: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc/
here is a screen shot of how it looks in DW design view & live view:
Anyone help?
The problems is that you are using "position:absolute" in your titlle, handbag and the navigation menu, which will cause the elements to floats on browser windows, if you are not sure what i mean just try resizing your browser window and you can see the whole thing got mess up.
position:absolute will appear differently in different monitor screen (e.g. 1024 by 768, and 1440 by 1200) and so does DW (since the preview screen is quater smaller...)
to solve this you need to add "position: relative" to your id="container" and reposition again....
Thank you soooo much!!!! That seemed to work perfectly!!!!!!!
You are welcome
More problems now......
I've attempted to add content and its not going very well, because I'm having to write all the code.....I'm used to WYSIWYG software and I guess DreamWeaver is for professionals...... Anyway here is a screen shot of how it now looks in Design View:
Here is the bottom part of Design View -notice the page counter and copyright info is outside the boundaries and up too high:
This is Live View:
and the bottom part in Live View:
This is how it looks from the server: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc
And this is how it is suppose to look: http://www.healthquestpt.com/homephysiciancare/
If anyone can help me figure out how to make this page work in Dreamweaver I'd be so grateful!!!
Please help?
I'm not in front of a computer right now, so I can't really see much. But I remember having a similar problem on an older project. I remember it was something about setting the height of the background. I assume this is what you are trying to fix - background doesn't reach all the way? I'll let you know more when I can get to a real computer.
There's no point chasing down specific layout issues until you fix your HTML & CSS errors. See details below.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthque stpt.com%2Fhpc%2F
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css21&warning=0&u ri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthquestpt.com%2Fhpc%2F
HINT: To get the most out of DW, you need to be able to work with code. Start here: http://w3schools.com/
Don't rely so much on Design View. It's not 100% reliable. Previewing in browsers is the best way to gage how you're doing. If the page doesn't render properly in browsers, most likely you have code errors that need attention.
Bookmark the links below and use them often during development.

Nick, yes I want all of the content of the page to have a white background with the overall page background to be gray. I appreciate any help you can offer, Thanks!
Nancy, thanks for the links you have provided. I am working on them now, have my reference books with me and hopefully can figure it all out. I am "self-taught" novice/intermediate webdesigner who does this for friends and side $$ so thats why I have so many errors LOL
Any advice, help, etc is so greatly appreciated!!!
I think we're ALL self-taught.
Working in Split View vs Design View alone allows you to see:
a) the code DW generates for you,
b) yellow highlighted code which indicates something is amiss.
If you get stuck on any of the error messages, post back with specific questions. Someone here will help you.
Keep up the good work!
Nancy O.
Thank you Nancy!
I seemed to successfully clear the errors in the css code - that is according to the link you provided.
I was able to fix some of the errors in the code itself, however it still says I have 46 errors and I cant figure out how I'm suppose to fix them, because its not making sense.
For example DW inserts the line break tag as
 and the validator said that was an error. So I went back and edited them to be
 and validator doesnt like that either. I want to center the text in a paragraph and the validator says
 is invalid but also
 is invalid, but DW codes the latter one. Validator is marking so much as invalid that is standard html.....
Any advice?
Also there is a .gif that shows correctly in DW in both design and live view but on the server its just a white rectangle.
This is how its suppose to look: http://www.healthquestpt.com/homephysiciancare/ (made with Webstudio 5.0 software)
This is Dreamweavers version: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc/
I never clean up html code for a long time.
Thanks Nancy for sharing Validator sites.
CSS Validator - http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
HTML Validator - http://validator.w3.org/
Sorry, little confused here.
This is how it looks from the server: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc
And this is how it is suppose to look: http://www.healthquestpt.com/homephysiciancare/
If you have the correct one already, why don't you just use that? I might be totally missing something here, but wouldn't that be easier...
As for the background, try this... Find this line of code:

And replace it with this:

See if that fixes your problem.
And to touch on what Nancy said, Dreamweaver has a WYSIWYG portion to it, but it's much more than that. Most of the time, I'm in Code View and use Design View just to check to make sure everything is colored right, etc. There is such a huge advantage to knowing code. I'm in charge of my school website with a staff of about 30 students. It's obvious when you look at the sites made by the ones who know code versus the ones who stuck to WYSIWG. Anyway, just my two cents.
align="center" is deprecated (obsolete) code in XHTML & HTML5 doc types. Instead of styling markup with HTML, you should be using CSS.
.center {text-align:center}

some centered text here

With respect to break tags, in XHTML doc types the correct syntax is

1) DO NOT USE POSITION ABSOLUTE. You don't need it. Absolute positioning removes content from the normal document flow resulting in a jumbled mess. Use default CSS positioning (none) with margins, padding & floats to align elements.
2) Remove HEIGHT values from all CSS containers. Height limits a container's capacity to hold more content when needed. Container height should always be determined by the amount of content it holds; not explicit values. If required to reveal a background image, for example, use CSS min-height instead of height.

Nick, I had to buy a new computer 2 weeks ago and the version of software I had been using for years (Webstudio) isn't compatible with windows 7 and it's been so many years since I purchased the other, I couldnt ask for a compatible version without paying again. I cant afford to pay for new software and Webstudio has its own issues anyway. I friend of mine pays for Adobe subscriptions and offered to use one of them to put Creative Suites 5.5 on my system. Hince, I'm learning Dreamweaver........
Nancy, I read your instructions.....gave me a headache ... LOL... but will begin working on what you've instructed. I know that once I can learn this stuff, I'll be better off in the end, its just trying to learn it all.
Thanks again and when I make progress, I'll post back the results.
Ok... I have started over by using a DW template 1 column liquid with a hearder. I have the banner, doctor bag, and the text "bringing wellness home" where I want them, but I cant get the phone number or the 3 links where I want them to go. I want the phone number to be centered under the doctor bag and same distance from the top as the "bringing..." text. Ive tried all the floats, margins, paddings, and clears that I know how to use, and I dont know how to do it without absolute positioning......
also, the 3 links I want to be up on top of the banner in the white space created below the "bringing....." text.
Please look and any help is sooooo appreciated: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc/home2.html
Your code looks something like this right now:

"Bringing Wellness Home"

Home About Us Our Services

The problem is that your links are in the content div, whereas the background for them is in the banner div. Try changing it to this:

"Bringing Wellness Home"

Home About Us Our Services
</menu>

And add this to your CSS:
#menu {
I haven't tried this out, but this should be a good starting point. Just mess with the margins until it fits.
And good choice moving to a CSS layout vs. tables.
Ok, I did as you suggested. I have margined, padded, floated, float-cleared, and div'd myself into oblivion...
Please look: http://www.healthquestpt.com/hpc/home2.html I want the phone # to be centered underneath the doctor bag and the 3 links to be in the white cutout area on the banner. The only way I can get it to do this is with tables and absolute positioning, and since that wont work in all browsers HOW on earth does one do this WITHOUT tables and absolute positioning?
Please Please Please someone help. If I can get these two things to be where they are suppose to be I should be able to figure the rest out.
Change the CSS for #menu to this:
#menu {
Although this won't fix your problem, you are missing a semicolon (;) in the CSS for h3 (the phone number). Probably the best thing to do would be to combine the doctor's bag and phone number into the banner background image using Photoshop.
Thank you Nick. I had thought about adding the info to my banner in Photoshop but for some reason was just determined (a.k.a. stubborn) to figure it out the hard way. But I've wasted lots of time trying to figure out something that I suppose doesnt exist, so I took your advice and now it looks like I wanted with no tables. Thanks again your help!!

Gambrinus supplies ingredients to microbreweries (Translation)
14 July 2011
Plzeň, July 12, 2011 - A total of eight microbreweries and small breweries, mainly from the Plzeň region but also from Cheb, Strakonice and Prague, received traditional ingredients for brewing beer (such as brewer's yeast and fermented and unfermented malt) from the Gambrinus brewery in Plzeň. Only in the past three years has the brewery delivered 62 tons of excellent malt in this way. Yeast from the Gambrinus brewery is in high demand due to its perfect microbiological cleanliness.
"Our ingredients are popular among microbreweries because they are extremely high quality. Malt for Gambrinus beer is prepared in our own malt house from approved kinds of spring barley that are appropriate for Czech beer and also conform to the registered geographical name "Czech beer." Yeast cultures are cleaned under the strictest hygienic conditions, thanks to the modern technology of cylindroconical tanks, which we use for the fermentation of Gambrinus beer. Microbreweries use yeast that was already used for the fermentation of Gambrinus beer. As a brewer, I see these deliveries to microbreweries as a help to colleagues in the field," stated Jan Hlaváček, senior brewer at Gambrinus.
Microbreweries don't take malt only in the form of grain, but already ground up and prepared for cooking beer wort. Malt travels from the Gambrinus brewery in Plzeň directly to the digester house for brewing. Brewers from microbreweries have to do less work since they do not have to grind the malt, which is necessary for cooking wort in the digester house.
The quality of yeast has a direct impact on the fermentation process and an important influence on the quality of beer. That is why it is extremely important to ensure optimal conditions for the growth and storage of yeast cultures. The complete elimination of microbiological contamination by wild yeast, bacteria and others is critical. From the point of view of microbiological or qualitative standards, the growth of yeast at the brewery in Plzeň is at its highest level, and brewers from microbreweries come to Gambrinus especially for the high quality and cleanliness of its yeast.
All the breweries, besides those in Cheb and Strakonice, order approximately 10 litres per week. Two of the larger breweries order, together, a total of two hectolitres in a two-month period. Since yeast cultures are living organisms, they require special care even during delivery, which is done in sterile containers. Yeast cultures should be stored in a cool place, where temperatures do not exceed between 2°C and 4°C.
Microbreweries order yeast type W from the Gambrinus brewery. This yeast, from bottom fermentation, is used for making pilsner beer. With the help of these cultures, it is possible to make light and dark beers.
Notes to editors:
- With total sales of close to 9.9 million hectolitres in the 2010 calendar year (including licensed production abroad) and with export to more than 50 countries, Plzeňský Prazdroj is the biggest producer of beer in the region and the biggest exporter of Czech beer.
- Plzeňský Prazdroj, a. s., is a member of the SABMiller PLC Company. Pilsner Urquell is an international flagship of SABMiller brands.
- SABMiller PLC is one of biggest beer companies in the world, with activities and distribution in more than 60 countries on six continents. SABMiller includes such important brands as Miller Genuine Draft, Grolsch, Peroni Nastro Azzurro and many other successful regional brands.

Sometimes when you get a customer complaint on Twitter, it's best to read it before sending out a standard reply, as Sam's Club proves.
Wholesale retailer Sam's Club is rumored to be in talks with Apple to bring store-within-stores to Sam's Club warehouses.
The rise of Apple's stores is one of the past decade's great retail stories. So, why then does the company continue to creep back into the big-box outlets and will this hurt the brand?
Wal-Mart's Sam's Club chain is joining the list of retail outlets selling the iPhone and iPad, but no start date has been given.
After what it said are complaints about the "mature" nature of "The Brick Bible," the national retailer has pulled copies of Brendan Smith's book, which used Legos to interpret the Bible.
A few photos and some news reportedly from a Sam's Club's annual meeting suggest that the retail chain is planning to offer a deal on the Wi-Fi-only Motorola Xoom.
It can't match some of its competition in the features department, but the Sony Cyber-shot HX300 still packs a powerful zoom lens and plenty of point-and-shoot punch.
The peer-to-peer lending startup had connected borrowers and sellers for personal loans up to $35,000, but now it's catering to small businesses with $100,000 loans.
Discount warehouse is looking to drive customers to its stores with free Wi-Fi and also enable them to check out products online through an upcoming mobile app.

I realize now that serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer is unlike any volunteer or life experience I have had prior, and may ever have again. The Peace Corps experience is about human connection, about giving a community hope, teaching them new skills and above all, helping them to help themselves.
It is not about bringing in aid, dropping it off and waiting until they need it again. It is about working one-on-one or little by little to reach a goal. It is about taking time. The Peace Corps experience is about truly immersing yourself in another culture to figure out together what is right for them.

"I was born here and lived here until I was a junior in high school," Cranmer said. "Then I moved back here in 2005. My husband and I really liked the far east side of Sparks. All the new stores were built on Los Altos about that time. We looked in our neighborhood now and found this house. I just really like it here.
"I feel like everything we need is right here. I rarely have to travel into Reno. I like the school I work at here in Sparks. I love the high school I coach at. I just really like Sparks."
She's obviously not alone considering the Rail City's growth over the past 15 years. But she does have her own story.
Cranmer worked at Washoe County Juvenile Services for six years before becoming an elementary school counselor. Cranmer, who got her undergraduate degree in human service and development from the University of Phoenix, works her counseling magic at Van Gorder Elementary school. She got into school counseling after earning her master's degree in that field, also from the University of Phoenix.
"I kind of took a roundabout path to my job now, Cranmer said. "Originally, when I was working at WCJS, I wanted to get into marriage and family counseling. I thought I could use that in the probation field or maybe open my own practice. But with coaching and a new family, starting my own business didn't seem feasible. The school district seemed like a better fit."
It's worked out. Cranmer said her counselor job at the local elementary is fun and satisfying. However, the 1991 Sparks High graduate admitted she didn't initially think she'd enjoy the elementary school scene.
"There are lots of reasons I love my job, but mostly I just really enjoy working with kids and I always have," she said. "When I first started my graduate school program, I wanted to get into a high school. That was my whole intent and then one of my advisors kind of forced me to do an internship at an elementary and I loved it. I kind of had control over a whole counseling department and I can be part of a team that is the whole school. I love being able to be silly with the little kids. I just enjoy working within the elementary school and I am still getting my high school fix through coaching."
Cranmer was the varsity girls basketball coach at McQueen from 2006 through 2009. She took a year off and then returned to the sidelines to work as an assistant with the Spanish Springs girls hoops program.
Cranmer, who played basketball at Sparks High and at Lassen Junior college in Susanville, said both her counseling and coaching are rewarding.
"I do think that my jobs are rewarding," the 40-year-old said. "There are times when it's frustrating too but the most rewarding part of my job is seeing kids outside of school, like when they're excited to see me. Seeing the kids move on from elementary school or graduate later and then come back is great. There are a lot of times when I'll be doing classroom guidance talking to the kids about whatever topic. They may not understand it then, but they come back and say, 'hey remember when we did that. I didn't get it then but I totally get it now."
Cranmer has a husband, Troy, and a 6-year-old son Koufax. She said coaching basketball takes up most of her free time, but she loves hanging out with her family, going camping and she admits she's an avid reader who enjoys going to University of Nevada athletic events.
"We're a very sports-passionate family," she said. "A lot of what we do in our free time revolves around sports. Whether we're coaching or just watching, we do a lot of sports stuff with Koufax. He's pretty much passion."
Cranmer, who is a die-hard Los Angeles Dodgers fan, said she's pretty happy and wouldn't go back to change much if anything in her life.
"I don't think I'd change anything," she said. "I like the way my life has turned out and I've learned from my mistakes. If anything, if I had some magic or something maybe I just wish that my dad were here to see my son."

Genital herpes is a common sexually transmitted infection that affects both men and women. Features of genital herpes include pain, itching and sores in your genital area. But many infected people have no signs or symptoms of genital herpes. An infected person can be contagious, even if he or she has no visible sores.
Genital herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Sexual contact is the primary way that the virus spreads. After the initial infection, the virus lies dormant in your body and can reactivate several times a year.
There's no cure for genital herpes, but medications can ease symptoms and reduce the risk of infecting others. Condoms also can help prevent transmission of the virus.
The majority of people who've been infected with HSV never know they have the disease, because they have no signs or symptoms. The signs and symptoms of HSV can be so mild that they go unnoticed.
When present, the initial symptom of genital herpes usually is pain or itching, beginning within a few weeks after exposure to an infected sexual partner. After several days, small red bumps or tiny white blisters may appear. They then rupture, becoming ulcers that ooze or bleed. Eventually, scabs form and the ulcers heal.
In women, sores can erupt in the vaginal area, external genitals, buttocks, anus or cervix. In men, sores can appear on the penis, scrotum, buttocks, anus or thighs or inside the urethra, the channel inside the penis leading to the bladder.
While you have ulcers, it may be painful to urinate. You may also experience pain and tenderness in your genital area until the infection clears. During an initial outbreak, you may have flu-like signs and symptoms, such as headache, muscle aches and fever, as well as swollen lymph nodes in your groin.
Genital herpes is different for each person. The signs and symptoms may recur, off and on, for years. Some people experience numerous episodes each year. For many people, however, the outbreaks are less frequent as time passes.
Various factors may trigger outbreaks, including:
If you suspect you have genital herpes — or any other sexually transmitted infection — see your doctor.
Two types of herpes simplex virus infections can cause genital herpes:
Because the virus dies quickly outside of the body, it's nearly impossible to get the infection through contact with toilets, towels or other objects used by an infected person.
Your risk of becoming infected with genital herpes may be increased if you:
Complications associated with genital herpes may include:
If you think you have a sexually transmitted illness, such as genital herpes, make an appointment to see your family doctor or gynecologist.
Before your appointment, you might want to write a list that answers the following questions:
Some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions, such as:
our doctor usually can diagnose genital herpes based on a physical exam and the results of certain laboratory tests:
There's no cure for genital herpes. Treatment with prescription antiviral medications may:
Antiviral medications used for genital herpes include:
Your doctor may recommend that you take the medicine only when you're experiencing symptoms of an outbreak. Or your doctor may recommend that you take a medicine daily, even when you're not experiencing any signs of an outbreak, to minimize your chances of recurrent outbreaks.
People who are experiencing severe complications may need to be hospitalized, so they can receive antiviral medication intravenously.
Finding out that you have genital herpes may be quite distressing. Among the tumult of emotions, you might feel shock, shame or anger. You may be suspicious or resentful of your partner if you think he or she "gave" you the disease. Or you might be fearful of rejection by your current partner or future partners.
What you're feeling is normal and perfectly valid. But you can cope with your diagnosis of genital herpes in a healthy and effective way. Here's how:
The suggestions for preventing genital herpes are the same as those for preventing other sexually transmitted infections. The key is to avoid being infected with HSV, which is highly contagious while lesions are present. The best way to prevent infection is to abstain from sexual activity or to limit sexual contact to only one person who is infection-free. Short of that, you can:
If you're pregnant, be sure to tell your doctor that you have genital herpes or, if you're unsure, ask to be tested for it. Your doctor may recommend that you start taking herpes antiviral medications late in pregnancy to try to prevent an outbreak from occurring around the time of delivery. If you're having an outbreak when you go into labor, your doctor will probably suggest a cesarean section to reduce the risk of passing the virus to your baby.

"Dusseldorf has much better flavor than Dijon," says chef Walter Staib of Philadelphia's City Tavern restaurant. "But it doesn't have the sex appeal of Dijon or the pedigree."
"There's a boldness," he says of Dusseldorf. "It's better for cooking, for salads."
Like Dijon, Dusseldorf has many culinary uses. Yet it is Dijon that gets much of the respect and supermarket shelf space these days. But that may change, at least on a governmental level.
Like Dijon in France, Dusseldorf is an actual place, a city on the Rhine River in western Germany. An application was recently filed with the European Commission to award an appellation-like protected geographical indication status to "Dusseldorfer mostert." What that means, essentially, is a mustard labeled as Dusseldorf (or Dusseldorfer) has to be made there according to specific regulations, at least as far as sales in the European Union are concerned.
As defined in the application, Dusseldorf's mustard "consists exclusively of ground brown and yellow mustard seeds, unfiltered spirit vinegar produced in Dusseldorf, the special lime and mineral rich water of Dusseldorf, salt, sugar and spices." It has "a bright creamy consistency and a malt brown color" and contains "tiny pieces of husks (specks)." And the flavor? "Hot, malty, spicy," which the application credits to the triple grinding of the mustard husks.
Judging by what's on the shelves over here, U.S. mustard producers have differing ideas of what Dusseldorf mustard is.
"It may be a smooth brown mustard or more grainy or spicier," says Barry M. Levenson, founder and curator of the National Mustard Museum in Middleton, Wis. "Your Dusseldorf and my Dusseldorf could be totally different."
No wonder Olds Products Co., the Pleasant Prairie, Wis., maker of Koops' Dusseldorf mustard, tries to help consumers with the descriptions: "a smooth German style mustard" and "America's Brat Mustard."
While the mustard is great on brats and hot dogs and sausages, don't feel limited. Marlena Spieler, a California-born cookbook author now living in Waterlooville, England, reaches for Dusseldorf mustard when she wants to give a "subtly different flavor" to a dish.
"It's always strong and not sweet, just the way I like it," she says.
For Spieler, who thinks even the word "Dusseldorf" is cool, the mustard works with tuna, burgers, chicken salad and grilled cheeses of all types.
Dusseldorf can be darker in color than its Dijon counterpart, but Staib, for one, doesn't believe that's much of a problem, especially in a sauce that can be lightened with sour cream or another ingredient.
"Close your eyes," he says, "and you would think it was a very strong Dijon mustard."

Last Christmas consumers were cutting back and hoarding cash, leaving retailers out cold.
But this holiday that stockpile of savings might just be a saving grace for retailers in America's largest mall, Maureen Bausch, Mall of America's executive vice president, told CNBC Thursday.
"We knew eventually they'd splurge, and I think they saved up all their money and they're spending it this Christmas, and I think it might just save us this holiday season," said Bausch. "They are buying thoughtfully, but they are buying."
Bausch said she expects to see sales up 2.5 percent from a year ago and has seen a 27 percent increase in traffic over the last few weeks.
Located in Bloomington, Minn., the mall will be affected by the winter storm expected to hit states across the Midwest Thursday.
An increase in mall traffic Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday was likely due to consumers anticipating heavy snowfall Thursday, Bausch said.
Mall of America houses 520 stores. Major retailers in the mall report good holiday sales, Bausch said.
"We talk to them on a regular basis and they're consistently telling us this is a very good season for them," said Bausch. "So I'm very optimistic that we might be coming out of it."
