Not since M.I.A., with her well-publicized turbulent political past, has an artist with such an extraordinary life-story arrived on the scene as Sudanese child soldier turned-rapper Emmanuel Jal.
The musician/songwriter/rapper whose autobiographical album Warchild will be released on May 13th was a featured guest at the premiere of the Tribeca Film Festival in New York earlier this week where the documentary about him, the Karim Chrobog directed War Child, made its American premiere. (It had its world premiere earlier this year at the Berlin Film Festival.) The film outlines the tough life of this 28 year old musician who was a soldier in the Sudanese People's Liberatin Army when he was only eight years of age. Jal's autobiography will be published by St. Martin's Press later this year.
His story is truly an amazing one. But what about the music, you ask? Well, unlike M.I.A., whose music was even more exciting than the publicity package that preceded her, Emmanuel Jal's new album "Warchild," which was recorded in London in 2006 and 2007, is kinda disappointing -- to these ears anyway, after one full listen. Maybe the hype had me expecting too much. Sung/rapped mostly in English and veering between reggae and rap, Emmanuel Jal sounds too often like he is trying too hard to emulate popular American rappers and it just ain't working. Hence, he is at his best on the tracks where he isn't trying to streamline his sound for US or British audiences.
I seem to be writing animal obits on a regular basis, I have no idea why, but here is the latest news from the wild kingdom: Japan's oldest Giant Panda, Ling Ling, a favorite at Tokyo's Ueno Zoo, died last week. Ling Ling was 22 years and seven months old, the equivalent to about 70 in human years. According to the autopsy, he died of heart failure. He began losing his appetite and strength last August, but recent heart and kidney problems began to take their toll. Ling Ling died just one day after the zoo withdrew him from public view for veterinary treatment. He was the fifth-oldest known male panda in the world.
Born at China's Beijing Zoo in September, 1985, Ling Ling came to Tokyo in 1992 initially for breeding purposes. Since then he had become one of the most popular attractions at the Ueno Zoo. He was also the only Giant Panda at Tokyo's largest zoo. In recent years Ling Ling traveled to Mexico three times in an effort to mate, but each attempt, like the attempts in Japan, were unsuccessful.
Over the last week Ling Ling's portrait has been displayed in his cage as visitors come to mourn, leaving bouquets, condolences and offerings of bamboo shoots. Giant pandas are one of the rarest and most endangered species on the planet. Only about 1,600 live in the wild in China, mostly on nature reserves in their native mountains and bamboo forests of the Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces.

Is there a way (without editing the plugin and thus making updates messy) to wrap the link around both the slide image and the meta div?
I've CSS'd the meta to overlay the image, but now I have this block on top of the slide that is un-clickable. Even if I make the text in the block a link, I still have dead space, since I'm not using an onclick() on the whole div.

Wine Maker Notes
The grapes are gently destemmed and pressed in pneumatic "chilled jacket Pera press" trying to obtain a non phenolic juice. The winemaking process is a combination of redutive (free of Oxigen) and Oxidative method in order to get different juices to be finaly blended.Alcoholic fermentation takes place in small stainless steel tanks at low temperatures and the wine is managed with no oak to preserve the natural primary aromas. There is no malolactic fermentation instead of that a lees contact is done in 85% of the wine at 10ºC during 2 months.The wine has a golden color with green hues, tropical fruits, pineapple, banana, pear and citrus notes ath the nose, in mouth is fresh and vibrant with balanced acidity and white peach notes that give a long and persistent finish.

Arts Tube sock gags all the rage at Scientology baby showers
…or at least they should be, as the religion demands that women give birth
without drugs,
or their partners present.
According to The Sun, Katie Holmes, who was months ago implanted with Tom Cruise's alien seed, recently received a delivery of "birthing boards" that say absurd shit like, "Be silent and make all physical movements slow and understandable."
These boards will be hung about the room as Ms. Holmes pops out her baby without the gratification of healthy hollering (which Scientologists believe might cause the offspring to suffer psychic damage), or pain-dulling drugs.
Note to theists: If you're going to invent a religion that demands silence in the labor room, at the very least stipulate that birthing mothers be provided with their partner's forearm and a steak knife, so everyone can practice suffering in silence.

A suspect armed with a knife stole a 14-foot swimming pool from a Walmart location in Pueblo last month. City Police are asking for help identifying the suspect.
The man photographed by the store's surveillance camera is accused of taking the pool from the 4200 Dillon Dr. location on June 22. When an employee confronted him for a receipt, the man brandished the knife.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, between 50 and 60 years old. He is 5'8" or 5'9" tall, with a medium build, short brown and gray hair, a large mustache. He wore reading glasses and had several tattoos on both arms.
Anyone with information about this crime is asked to contact Pueblo Crime Stoppers at 542-STOP or online at www.pueblocrimestoppers.com.

So I've looked around the web and a couple of questions here in stackoverflow here are the definition:
- Generally, an internal node is any node that is not a leaf (a node with no children)
- Non-leaf/Non-terminal/Internal node – has at least one child or descendant node with degree not equal to 0
- As far as i understand it, it is a node which is not a leaf.
I was about to conclude that the root is also an internal node but there seems to be some ambiguity on its definition as seen here:
What is an "internal node" in a binary search tree?
- As the wonderful picture shows, internal nodes are nodes located between the root of the tree and the leaves
If we follow that definition then the root node isn't going to be counted as an internal node. So is a root node an internal node or not?

Abstract"This proposal will develop a new computer model to predict the effects of alternative interception strategies under consideration for incorporation into the emerging weapon systems tasked to neutralize enemy threat clouds in the event of a hostile missileattack. Traditional U.S. countermeasures focus on hit-to-kill methodology as a result of treaty limitations. The hit-to-kill approach requires extreme precision coupled with flawless target discrimination and thus presents an extreme technical challengesubject to defeat through relatively low-tech countermeasures. However, recent geopolitical shifts have prompted the U.S to extradite its self from these restrictions. This will allow exploration of a wider range of defenses. The proposed program to bedeveloped will model interactions between candidate new defenses and threat clouds in trial scenarios in a manner analogous to the presently employed PEELS (Parametric Endo/Exo Atmospheric Lethality Simulation) program used for 2-body hit-to-killsimulations. The program will be anchored to presently utilized simulation programs so as to provide seamless defensive strategy development. This will allow rapid screening and development of potential alternative defenses and deployment tactics notcovered by existing simulations models such as PEELS, KIDD, and PEGEM to enhance National security. The objective of this proposal is to develop a computer model, called the Volume-Engaging Weapo

Another winter or two away
Reds insider
By John Fay
Right now would be the perfect time for the Reds to ask for patience. You know, the we're-going-to-get-this-right-but-it's-going-to-take-time speech.
General manager Walt Jocketty didn't take that tack Saturday. When asked if what ails the Reds could be corrected in one offseason, Jocketty said: "I hope so. I don't think we're that far away. ... We thought we had a chance to finish strong."
A strong finish doesn't look remotely possible given the way the Reds are playing right now. Going into Saturday's game, they had lost 12 of 14.
So though it would seem like a good time to sit back and take the long view, the Reds have made it pretty clear since Bob Castellini took over that the club was going to go for the quick fix. The Reds have tried to do this while infusing young talent at the same time.
A lot of fans would like to see the Reds go all the way with the youth movement. That works as a concept, but the Reds don't have the talent in Triple-A to do that.
But Jocketty will certainly have the chance to reshape the roster this offseason. One thing Jocketty has in common with Wayne Krivsky is he doesn't tip his hand as to what he's going to do.
So far, Jocketty's been remarkably patient. The one thing we know is he didn't want Ken Griffey Jr. back at $16 million for next year, so he traded Griffey.
That's the only significant move he's made.
The offseason - and the rest of this season - won't be as quiet.
The Reds have 12 potential free agents on the roster.
Jocketty said Saturday that the club has not spoken to agents for any of those players about coming back.
The guess here is only a handful will be back. Mike Lincoln and Jerry Hairston Jr. probably. David Weathers maybe. Jeremy Affeldt possibly.
As for Adam Dunn, Jocketty remains noncommittal.
"No decision's been made," he said.
My guess is Dunn won't be back.
But that leads to the question about Dunn specifically and the free agents in general: Who do you replace them with?
"The big thing is who's available," Jocketty said. "The free agent class is not real strong. You've got to look at what you can do with trades."
One thing Jocketty won't do, he said, is trade young players.
"That kind of defeats the purpose of what we're trying to do," he said.
Here's what I see as the glaring needs of the team this offseason:
A frontline catcher: All three Reds catchers are free agents. The club has an option on David Ross. Ryan Hanigan had a very good year in Triple-A. He'll probably be the No. 2 guy next year. "Catching is extremely hard to obtain," Jocketty said.
Center field/leadoff: Hairston has been very good in that role. But he has trouble staying healthy. Ryan Freel is also under contract, so the Reds may hope that between Freel and Hairston they'll have the spot covered.
Shortstop: Alex Gonzalez is Plan A. But Jocketty admits you've got to have a Plan B, given Gonzalez's injury. "The medical reports are good," Jocketty said. "But you've got to play both ways. You can't count on him and then be stuck if he's not ready." Jeff Keppinger's a good backup plan. But if he's going to be your everyday guy, doesn't it make sense to put Brandon Phillips there?
A corner outfielder/big bat: This is assuming Dunn won't be back. Replacing Dunn's production won't be easy. Take 40 home runs, 100 RBI, 100 runs and 100 walks out of this lineup, and it's average, at best. As Jocketty mentioned, the free agent market is underwhelming.
There are other needs as well, of course. If the bullpen loses Weathers and Affeldt to free agency, they'll have to be replaced. The young starters - Edinson Volquez, Johnny Cueto, Homer Bailey and Daryl Thompson - have to continue to develop. The same can be said of outfielder Jay Bruce and first baseman Joey Votto.
A lot has to go right for this team to win in 2009.
Jocketty's record says he knows how to build a winner. He's watched this team on this abysmal streak. Still, he's convinced it can be fixed in one offseason. At the very least, you've got to credit him for optimism.

Chris Rock Has No Time for Your Ignorance
By Eric Bogosian
Published: October 5, 1997
Who's more racist: black people or white people? Black people. You know why? Because black people hate black people, too. Everything white people don't like about black people, black people don't like about black people. ... Every time black people want to have a good time, niggers mess it up. ... Can't keep a disco open more than three weeks. Grand opening? Grand closing. Can't go to a movie the first week it opens. Why? Because niggers are shooting at the screen. ... I know what all you black readers think. ... ''It isn't us, it's the media. The media has distorted our image to make us look bad.'' ... Please. ... When I go to the money machine at night, I'm not looking over my shoulder for the media. I'm looking for niggers. -- from ''Rock This!'' by Chris Rock
A Chris Rock concert is an exorcism by laughter. One of the first pure comedians to emerge in a generation, he makes us laugh not only because of perfect writing, skewed associations and rock-steady timing but also because of pain. The pain of how we've hurt ourselves with race, the pain of being a man, the pain of confusion. This is the flip side of the deep anger curdling the American dream; it is anger transformed into entertainment. Rock knows how far to go, like a crazed uncle who keeps tickling your toes while you beg for mercy.
Discovered by Eddie Murphy, Rock gained fame as a featured player on ''Saturday Night Live'' and ''In Living Color'' in the early 90's. He had a high-profile part in ''New Jack City'' and was a co-producer and star of ''CB4,'' but when ''In Living Color'' went off the air, Rock found himself without a job. So he returned to stand-up, working the clubs, honing his particular brand of streetwise humor. When his HBO comedy special, ''Bring the Pain,'' was broadcast last year -- with its defining routine ''Black People vs. Niggas'' -- it was clear that Rock, 31, was having a comeback.
Now he seems to be everywhere: in commercials for 1-800-Collect, on MTV and his HBO interview show, on a comedy album and in a new book, ''Rock This!'' Still, it is in concert that he is at his whip-cracking best. His influences range from Buster Keaton to Richard Pryor to Sam Kinison; he brings together a vast black and white audience to laugh at some of the most painful truths. In the end, Chris Rock is funny, and that's all that's important. Or is it?
Eric Bogosian: What's the difference between a black audience and a white audience?
Chris Rock: I'll give it to you in musical terms. When a musical act performs, the black audience goes crazy for all the stuff, the album cuts, everything. White audiences, they're nice and all, but they're not going to lose it until they get the hits. Comedy is the same thing.
Bogosian: How do you know when it is funny? When is the joke finished?
Rock: It's never locked. I mess with it every night. But I really don't improvise that much. I mean, 10 percent of the show is improvised.
Bogosian: What do you do when the audience doesn't get the good stuff?
Rock: I slow down my delivery. The natural thing to do when the show's not going well is to speed it up. Worst thing in the world. Slow it down. Make sure they understand everything you're saying. I'll think, Maybe the abortion bit won't play. But I don't drop that much stuff now.
Bogosian: Do you ever think you stink and they're eating it up?
Rock: I think that all the time. Out of a hundred shows I'll do in a year, I'll think maybe three are great.
Bogosian: Do you ever get angry at the people you work with because they tell you it's a great show and it's not?
Rock: They can't tell. My brothers, Andre and Tony, can tell, my producer, Nelson George, can tell, my sister can tell. Four people in the whole world can see people laughing and still say it's not a good show.
Bogosian: What about anger? You seem to move from mischievousness to malice to outright anger in your show. You talk about the anger of old black men and how they hide it.
Rock: When they're around white people they don't do anything. Then they get really angry when the white man walks away. ''Cracker!''
Bogosian: Young black people don't do that?
Rock: Old black men. These guys rode in the back of the bus. For a long time. And all that went with it. Hard to get rid of that. Someone like me, a lot younger, I didn't go through that.
Bogosian: I'm angry at everybody and I don't even need a reason. If I were black. ...
Rock: You're not.
Bogosian: No. But I get pulled over every time I get on an airplane. It's the ethnic hair, I think. But you seem angry at blacks, like you're resentful of your own kind. You pick on black behavior a lot.
Rock: I pick on ignorance. Anyone who thinks it's cool to be stupid.
Bogosian: There are blacks you are clearly angry at. You used the word ''nigger'' in your HBO show.
Rock: I guess I did.
Bogosian: Your audience is made up of whites, many of whom are happy to hear how lazy or stupid blacks are. You're using the word ''nigger.'' And some of the white audience is saying, ''That's right.''
Rock: Every ethnic group divides itself, criticizes itself. I know gay guys who say ''fag.'' What I said got more attention because it was black people, and we tend to get more attention when we do things.
Bogosian: ''Nigger'' is a heavy-duty word. You better have a good reason for using it.

Gene AmmonsVer en iTunes

Gene Ammons, who had a huge and immediately recognizable tone on tenor, was a very flexible player who could play bebop with the best (always battling his friend Sonny Stitt to a tie) yet was an influence on the R&B world. Some of his ballad renditions became hits and, despite two unfortunate interruptions in his career, Ammons remained a popular attraction for 25 years.
Son of the great boogie-woogie pianist Albert Ammons, Gene Ammons (who was nicknamed "Jug") left Chicago at age 18 to work with King Kolax's band. He originally came to fame as a key soloist with Billy Eckstine's orchestra during 1944-1947, trading off with Dexter Gordon on the famous Eckstine record Blowing the Blues Away. Other than a notable stint with Woody Herman's Third Herd in 1949 and an attempt at co-leading a two tenor group in the early '50s with Sonny Stitt, Ammons worked as a single throughout his career, recording frequently (most notably for Prestige) in settings ranging from quartets and organ combos to all-star jam sessions. Drug problems kept him in prison during much of 1958-1960 and, due to a particularly stiff sentence, 1962-1969. When Ammons returned to the scene in 1969, he opened up his style a bit, including some of the emotional cries of the avant-garde while utilizing funky rhythm sections, but he was still able to battle Sonny Stitt on his own terms. Ironically the last song that he ever recorded (just a short time before he was diagnosed with terminal cancer) was "Goodbye."

How to Fold Bandanas
Four Methods:Folding a Bandana with a Top BowFolding a Bandana to Cover Your HeadCreating a Ponytail AccessoryTying a Bandana around Your NeckCommunity Q&A
Typically square and in a paisley handkerchief pattern, bandanas are a great way to hold your hair out of your face. Not only that, but there are many ways to fold them to add a colorful accessory to any outfit. Some bandanas are more creative and showcase your favorite bands or other interests. Whatever your reason for wearing them, folding and securing them properly can make all the difference.
Method 1
Folding a Bandana with a Top Bow
1Style your hair. Before putting this kind of bandana in your hair, you'll want to style your hair. You can put it in a ponytail or bun and then use the bandana to keep fly-aways under control. Or you can keep your hair down and use the bandana simply to keep your bangs or short layers out of your face.
2Fold your bandana. Flatten your bandana on the table. A square bandana works best for this style. Position it like a diamond, and fold it in half to form a triangle.[1]
3Create a long strip out of your bandana. Start with the bottom of the triangle and roll it in one to two inch sections toward the tip of your triangle. Carefully crease each time you fold to give your bandana a rigid shape.
4Wrap the bandana around your head. Place the middle of your bandana strip on the center of the hairline on the back of your neck. Move your two hands toward the edges of the strip and pull it onto the top of your head.[2]
- Flip your head over if you've decided to wear your hair down. Once you've pulled the corners to the top of your head, flip your head back over so you can see what you're tying.
5Create your bow. Tie a double knot on the top of your head. Take the short ends sticking out of the knot and open the folds of the bandana to create your bow.
6Secure your bandana. If you want the bow to be off-center, now is your time to move it. Simply grab the knot with one hand and the middle of your bandana with the other and shift it until it reaches your desired spot. Pin the bandana near your ears and at the knot to keep it from shifting further.[3]
Method 2
Folding a Bandana to Cover Your Head
1Fold a single corner of your bandana. Lay out your bandana. You want a square bandana in order to make this kind of fold. Take the corner closest to you (the bottom corner) and fold it up so that the point hits the center of the bandana.[4]
- If you have a smaller bandana, make this fold smaller—don't make it reach to the center. This will give you more fabric to stretch over your head.
2Wrap the bandana around your head. Holding your bandana on each corner of the fold, place across your forehead. Make sure the small piece of fabric you folded is on the inside. Move your hands outwards toward the two side corners, pulling them toward the back of your head. The top corner of the bandana will be on top of your head.[5]
- If it makes it easier, you can bend over forward to perform this step.
3Tie your bandana. Use the two side corners to tie a single knot at the back of your head. You want it tight enough so that it feels secure. Be careful not to make it too tight though, because it will be uncomfortable.
4Flip the top corner and tie it in place. Keep one hand on the knot you've created. Bring the top corner of the bandana over the top of your head and to the knot. Place it over your original knot and use your side corners to tie another single knot over this piece. This will catch the top corner in the middle of a secure double knot.[6]
5Make any necessary adjustments. You can hold on to the front and pull the knot to loosen your bandana. To tighten it, use both hands to tighten the knot as securely as possible. If you have longer ends than you wish, create a triple knot to shorten them.
Method 3
Creating a Ponytail Accessory
1Pull your hair into a pony tail. Before adding your bandana, you need to style your hair. Pull it back into a pony tail at your desired height and secure it with an elastic. If you wish to pull your bangs out, do so before adding your bandana.[7]
2Create a skinny strip with your bandana. Lay you bandana flat. You can use a square or rectangular bandana for this style. If you have a square bandana, fold it in half to form a triangle. If you have a rectangular bandana, fold it hot-dog style in half. Create a skinny strip by making 1" folds starting from the bottom of your bandana.
3Wrap the bandana around your ponytail. Flip your pony tail over the top of your head. Place the center of your skinny bandana strip on the elastic under your ponytail. Move your hands toward the ends of the bandana as you bring it up above your head. As you pull the ends up, flip your ponytail back into its natural position.
4Tie your bandana off. Take one of the ends and wrap it under the other to create a knot. Double knot this if you feel it won't be secure enough with a single knot. Let the sides hang down beside your ponytail. Loosen the folds if you wish to show off your bandana. Run your fingers through your pony tail to loosen your hair strands around the bandana for a more natural look.[8]
Method 4
Tying a Bandana around Your Neck
1Use your bandana as a neck scarf. This is a fun, unconventional way to add a bandana to your outfit. You can tie it as an ascot wrap to accessorize.
2Place the bandana around your neck. Take two opposing corners and hold one in each hand. Pull the bandana tight and place it around the back of your neck with the ends hanging in the front.[9]
3Create and secure your loop. Fold one end over the opposite end twice. On the last fold, bring the end up through the loop at your neck. Take both hands to loosen the wrap at the front of your neck. Also, loosen the end that you pulled through your loop to create your ascot look.

History The Extraordinary Example
posted by March 2 at 11:38 AMon
I finally got around to exploring the ideas and moves of the 19th century German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, and in his most famous work, In The World as Will and Representation, discovered this passage, which is supposed to present the ultimate example of strife in the world, the utter cruelty of existence, the deadly force of the will to live:
Many insects lay their eggs on the skin and even in the body of the larvae of other insects, whose slow destruction is the first work of the newly hatched brood. The young hydra, which grows like a bud out of the old one, and afterwards separates itself from it, fights while it is still joined to the old one for the prey that offers itself, so that the one snatches it out of the mouth of the other. But the bulldog-ant of Australia affords us the most extraordinary example of this kind; for if it is cut in two, a battle begins between the head and the tail. The head seizes the tail in its teeth, and the tail defends itself bravely by stinging the head: the battle may last for half an hour, until they die or are dragged away by other ants. This contest takes place every time the experiment is tried.
This is the mean insect Schopenhauer had in mind:
I have no idea if it's true that the bulldog ant, if separated, fights with itself. But that doesn't matter. What's important is the "extraordinary example" itself, the fact that a bulldog ant's self-battle gets to the essence of Schopenhauer's pessimistic philosophy. (The talking triangle is Spinoza's "extraordinary example," and Hume's is the robot in a forest clearing.)

We consider the problem of inferring and modeling topics in a sequence of documents with known publication dates. The documents at a given time are each characterized by a topic and the topics are drawn from a mixture model. The proposed model infers the change in the topic mixture weights as a function of time. The details of this general framework may take different forms, depending on the specifics of the model. For the examples considered here, we examine base measures based on independent multinomial-Dirichlet measures for representation of topic-dependent word counts. The form of the hierarchical model allows efficient variational Bayesian inference, of interest for large-scale problems. We demonstrate results and make comparisons to the model when the dynamic character is removed, and also compare to latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) and Topics over Time (TOT). We consider a database of Neural Information Processing Systems papers as well as the US Presidential State of the Union addresses from 1790 to 2008.

I was diagnosed as a Type II Diabetic 2 or 3 years ago and then put on Metformin sometime after that. Well, yesterday I was having a Gastric Emptying Test to determine if severe heartburn, that started about 3 weeks ago, might be related to my diabetes. The only thing I had eaten yesterday, is the eggs and two peices of toast they gave me for the test. After I finished the test, about 5 hours later, I noticed how good I felt, better than I have for quite a while. No headache, no numbess or tingling, and no heartburn. Well I decided on my way out to get a bottle of apple juice. By the time I got half way home, after drinking the juice, both my fingers and toes were very numb and tingling and I had a headache. I had something like this happen once before about three weeks ago, along with the numbness and tingling, but I also had severe heartburn, and a headache. At the time we equated this to a change in GERD medication, and the numbness due to possibly Diabetic Neuropathy. So, my Dr.'s were looking at my Diabetes, as a possible cause for the neuropathy and trying to rule out other causes for this, and Gastropareses caused by Diabetes. I belived the headache was due to my Diabetes as well. Well when I got home I checked my blood sugar and it was only 92. The first time this happened, my blood sugar was over 200. The numbess started wearing off but my headache was getting worse and I wound up taking medication I have for migraines and for nausea. Well, I fell asleep and woke up and the numbess and tingling were gone and I only had a mild headache. I decided to have a cup of coffee to see if that would get rid of the rest of my headache, as it has in the past. I normally put a lot of sugar in my coffee with no adverse affects. Well, my headache went away but before I finished half of my coffee, both my hands and feet were very numb again! To make a long story shorter, I think the numbness, severe heartburn and headaches are due to a rapid deterioration in my Diabetes. I'd like to get some feedback from others what they think. Thanks.

When you consume carbs, whether it comes from apple juice or sugar and twinkies, as a diabetic, your blood sugar rises to harmful levels. Different people have different feelings with high blood sugars, some people get tired and apparently you have your own symptoms, headaches and presumably aggravation of your neuropathy. But you must understand, your high blood sugars are not only making you feel bad, they are harmful. And it is very likely that this symptom of numbness when your blood sugar is high is just another sign that harm is being done.
Please take this as a wake up call. You need to get your blood sugar under control. You need to test several times a day. You need to stop eating all those carbs and get your diet in order. You need to start exercising. And if that doesn't work you need to increase your medication. Diabetes is not some little thing where you can take a pill and make it go away. You are going to have to take real action and make some life changes in order to maintain your health. There are lots of people here who can help, you just have to ask.
To make a long story shorter, I think the numbness, severe heartburn and headaches are due to a rapid deterioration in my Diabetes.
i wouldn't put it that way, but they were probably due to a rapid rise and fall of the numbers due to what you ate and drank.
A lot of sugar in a drink, Apple Juice, these are things will high amounts of carbohydrates, and carbs are what make you numbers rise. Were you ever taught anything about carb control? Testing? It looks like you need a fast crash course.
Please click on the link below, which will take you to a post detailing basic informations that you need:
Come back and ask any questions that you might have.
As much as I complain about my "D" classe...The one thing the CDE said was that for us Juice was OFF the menu except as a means to treat a low. I would echo what Lizzy said about carb control leading to tight BG control. Please read over her getting started links and ask questions if you want.
I would suspect that if you had tested a half hour after drinking the apple juice, you would have seen the same 200 range, or close to it, that you had seen the first time you had those symptoms.Apple juice can cause a very rapid increase, followed by a decrease to 92 by the time you got home, due to the fact that your insulin takes a while to catch up to your blood glucose levels. And the same thing may have happened with the sugar in the coffee--how much did you put in it?
The good thing is that you seem to experience this neuropathy only briefly, and you may have the key that explains when and how it happens. Which means that if you avoid those situations, you can probably prevent it from becoming a permanent condition. Believe me, that is worth any effort you could make in that direction...
Hi LisaMarie, yes you can be tested for neuropathy....
you may have to past that url in or just google ''tests for neuropathy''
I believe they do an electromyogram and nerve conduction tests.
Good luck with your doctors appointment,

It happens even when carbs were not overdone too.
That's because the changes that occur in the nerves don't just go away when your numbers go down. it takes time with consistent numbers for the changes to start to reverse.

Hi, I have somebody that helps me with the important upgrades, as I'm not that good with WP. He usually upgrades first on a test site, where he is running

The problem he has is with the wp_options table. It exports fine, but wont import in another DB.
Would anybody have any idea why this should be happening. We havent been able to upgrade to 2.7.1 yet, because of it.

Britain will need months of preparation before Brexit talks can start, EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said on Monday, chiding the government in London for not preparing better for the possibility of a 'Leave' vote. Juncker, who also confirmed Britain would lose unrestricted access to the internal European Union market if it did not accept free movement of workers, said his preference would have been for Brexit talks to start as soon as possible. The British government needs several months to fine-tune its position," Juncker told France 2 television.
By Michael Martina and Manuel Mogato VIENTIANE (Reuters) - Southeast Asian nations overcame days of deadlock on Monday when the Philippines dropped a request for their joint statement to mention a landmark legal ruling on the South China Sea, officials said, after objections from Cambodia. China publicly thanked Cambodia for supporting its stance on maritime disputes, a position which threw the regional block's weekend meeting in the Laos capital of Vientiane into disarray. Competing claims with China in the vital shipping lane are among the most contentious issues for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, with its 10 members pulled between their desire to assert their sovereignty while finding common ground and fostering ties with Beijing.

RESECTION of 50% of the total small bowel is well tolerated in children as well as adults.2,3 There are also reports of survivals following 70%-80% bowel resection with no apparent ill effects. However, some acute abdominal catastrophes, such as mesenteric vascular occlusion in the elderly or volvulus in younger patients, may necessitate resection of up to 90% of the small bowel.The immediate morbidity and mortality following massive intestinal resection can be minimized by the prudent use of antibiotics and by adequate colloid and blood replacement. Unfortunately, the surviving patient usually experiences persistent diarrhea, weight loss, and inanition progressing to death.Surgical approaches toward slowing intestinal transit and increasing absorption have included vagotomy and pyloroplasty,4 interposition of an antiperistaltic gastric tube,5 construction of recirculating small bowel loops,8 and reversal of a segment of the remaining small bowel.7 We have now evaluated the effect

I was diagnosed with crohns in Dec 2004. I am 25 yrs old and have been married for 2 years - now my husband and I want to have our first baby. My crohns have never been in long term remission. I am worried because my doctor told me if I get pregnant while having a flare up I could continue to have flare ups throughout the pregnancy whereas if I get pregnant while not having one I could be in remission (so to speak) for the whole pregnancy. I take Asacol and prednizone.
Does anyone have any insight on this? I don't think I could take 9 months of pregnancy and flare ups. They are barely tolerable as it is. My husband thinks I am worrying too much, but he doesn't truly understand the discomfort that goes along with a flare up.

UN troops are ready to use "lethal force" to stop a rebel advance on the Democratic Republic of Congo city of Goma after major new clashes erupted, a spokesman said Monday.
The DR Congo government said at least 130 people, including 10 soldiers, were killed in new fighting with M23 rebels on the outskirts of Goma in the east of the country on Sunday.
The UN has deployed a 3,000 strong intervention brigade in eastern DR Congo in recent weeks. The joint South African, Tanzanian, Malawian brigade has an unprecedentedly strong UN Security Council mandate to take on armed groups.
The DR Congo "mission has put its troops on high alert and stands ready to take any necessary measures including the using of lethal force to protect civilians," UN spokesman Martin Nesirky said.
"Any attempt by the M23 to advance toward Goma will be considered a direct threat to civilians," he added.
M23, which UN experts say has received backing from Rwanda and Uganda, briefly took Goma in November last year, sparking the UN decision to beef up its forces in a region where millions have died in conflict over the past two decades.
The latest heavy fighting broke out at Mutaho, about eight kilometers (five miles) northwest of Goma, the UN mission in DR Congo, MONUSCO, said.
The M23, which has forces around Goma, has reinforced its positions with "heavy artillery" and a "battle tank," MONUSCO said in a statement.
The clashes erupted as the Rwandan government accused commanders of the the UN's Force Intervention Brigade (FIB) of meeting leaders of the rebel Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR).
The FDLR is mainly based in eastern DR Congo and includes ethnic Hutu fighters accused of taking part in Rwanda's 1994 genocide.
"Rwanda has credible, reliable and detailed information that various forms of tactical and strategic collaboration with the FDLR were discussed during those meetings," Rwanda's UN ambassador Eugene-Richard Gasana said in the letter.
"Their actions, implicating senior United Nations commanders picking sides among the very armed groups whose military activities they are meant to deter, are of serious concern," he added.
Gasana also said there is "enhanced collaboration" between the DR Congo army, the FARDC, and the FDLR, "often with the knowledge and/or support of certain FIB contingents."
"There are increased patterns of large quantities of weapons and ammunition, being delivered to FDLR by FARDC officers," the letter said. It added that UN force commanders knew about the deliveries.
Gasana said the activities could "undermine" a regional peace accord brokered by UN leader Ban Ki-moon and signed this year by African leaders. Under the accord, the leaders promised not to interfere in each other's affairs.
The United Nations declined to comment immediately on the letter.
UN experts monitoring DR Congo sanctions said in their latest report that Rwanda was still aiding the M23 though the assistance has fallen off since last year.

Nick Fierro says the Eagles are attempting to put the "special" back in special teams. Quintin Demps and DeSean Jackson are bringing back memories of the Brian Mitchell era -- but it's still early. Personally, I enjoyed the vastly underrated Reno Mahe era.
WR Kevin Curtis doesn't think his sports hernia was as severe as Donovan McNabb's and L.J. Smith's. But he's not going to rush it, according to the Reading Eagle.
DT Dan "Glecko" looks like a lock to make the team. Pretty remarkable story when you consider that the Eagles were hoping to use Klecko as a fullback.
Ashley Fox has a fun story about the one day of the week players have off.
So what do Eagles coaches do on Tuesdays? And here's what defensive coordinator Jim Johnson is thinking on Mondays.
Geez, could someone give Ashley a day off? She has another column on what it's like to sit through an Andy Reid news conference.

Course Schedules
The course schedule is published before advising and registration begin for each semester and summer session. It lists each class being offered, its time, location, instructor (if available), and its course reference number (CRN) -- which students must know in order to register.
The online schedule also provides registration instructions and essential information. It is updated with the latest changes, and shows if seats are available in each class.
Adding Courses
After the fifth day of classes, any additions to the original registration must: (1) be recorded on an official add form, and (2) include the instructor's signature. In addition to the Registrar's Office, add forms may be taken to an academic advisor, who may electronically authorize a student to register for a course. Deadlines as outlined in the General Catalog must be observed.
Courses may be added for credit or audit. An instructor's signature is required beginning the second week of the semester (sixth day of classes) during fall and spring semesters, and other dates as noted in the General Catalog. Students may not add into a full class at any time without an instructor's signature. An instructor should not sign a blank Add Form, but should ensure that the proper course information (e.g., CRN, course prefix, course number, etc.) is present before signing and dating the form. The Registrar's Office will not process any Add Form that is not dated, or for which the signature date is older than three business days. Advisors who have access to authorize students into full classes will follow the same guidelines as the Registrar's Office. Specific deadlines for adding courses may be found in the General Catalog. All requests for audit registration must be approved by the instructor and must be submitted to the Registrar's Office, Taggart Student Center 246.

If one sharpens a knife on Shabbos, have they transgressed an issur d'oraisa or an issur d'rabbanan?
Mi Yodeya is a question and answer site for those who base their lives on Jewish law and tradition and anyone interested in learning more. Join them; it only takes a minute:
Sign up
Sign up
Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The answer depends on the nature of the knife and how sharp it was to start with. If it is a knife that can only be used once it is sufficiently sharp and you sharpen it, the issur is de'oraita and it falls into the category of makkah bepatish. If it is a knife that does not require sharpening and you have merely done something with it that inadvertently caused it to be sharper, that is only a problem - and only according to some authorities - if doing so is the sort of thing that you would normally do during the week. If it is, you have violated the rabbinic prohibition of shevut. If it is not, then you have not done anything.

Example of small thinking
A recent decision to let the term of long-time Radcliff Planning Commission member John Flanagan expire without reappointment is an example of the small thinking that got us where we are and contributes to our staying here.
Grimes will be loyal to Obama
When Alison Grimes gave her acceptance speech on the night of this past primary election, she claimed to be her own woman and would go to the Senate to represent the people of Kentucky, not President Barack Obama. This makes a very interesting contrast to what was said at a Democratic fundraiser for her and other female Senate candidates.
Chaired by Michelle Obama, the first lady noted how hard it had been to get Obamacare through and their goal of more gun control legislation had fallen short.
Rand Paul is wrong in Iraq comments
I see where our junior senator, Rand Paul, wrote, "President Obama declared this war over and even asked the Congress to rescind its 2002 authorization for use of military force against Iraq, something I agreed with." Apparently. Sen. Paul has been drinking too much of the Washington, D.C., version of Watch Me Run for President Kool-Aid.
Thankful for fireworks idea
I would like to thank Councilwoman Barbara Baker for addressing the unlimited use of fireworks in Radcliff.
I feel for the special needs daughter of Rickey Skoogs who is distressed by these loud fireworks. No child should feel unsafe in their own home. This alone is reason enough for this limit.
As a Vietnam veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder, I also am affected by these fireworks. Each year since 2011, I dread the three or four weeks around the Fourth of July.
Support for judge-executive
It doesn't take much to feel discouraged when you listen to our national news programs. It seems that our White House has been the main source of failed policy, mismanagement, political corruption and a series of weak excuses that any thinking person would find hard to believeand it keeps on coming.
Our own county government, led by Judge Harry Berry, is a breath of cool, fresh air.
Officers in war earned respect
Being a Vietnam combat veteran, not an officer, I served 26 months in-country. I served 16 months in combat as a crew chief-door gunner with the 240th Assault Helicopter Company, Mad Dog Gunship Platoon, July 1969 to October 1970.
What would WWII leaders do?
Early in the morning on June 6, 1944, about 156,000 Allied soldiers stormed a handful of beaches along the coast of Normandy, France. Can you imagine being the first in line knowing there would be fire coming at the landing vessel as the landing vessel door opened? That you could be the first one shot?
Wondering about JCPS findings
I read with great interest the article in the May 22 issue of The News-Enterprise pertaining to the audit of Jefferson County Public Schools by the state auditor. Based on that article and compared to five other school districts, the auditors found JCPS ranked highest in school administration staff, support staff and instructional aides while ranking at or near the bottom in spending for instruction and teach staffing.
Local doctor shares view on Obamacare
The Affordable Health Care Act (Obamacare) is a law that was passed by virtue of bribes and lies. It allows the federal government to run health care just as it runs education, energy, retirement, and our financial system.
Are the American people really willing to turn something as important and personal as our health care over to the federal bureaucrats?
President's actions threaten democracy
Saturday is Flag Day and I am very proud of the flag of the United States and for what it has stood for so many years.
