Inevitably, readers will compare Joyce Carol Oates' memoir about the loss of her husband to Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking, but no comparisons are necessary between such original, piercing retrievals. Raymond Smith and Oates were, in every sense, true life companions: Married for nearly half a century, the couple shared a deep passion of literature long before they co-founded The Ontario Review thirty-six years ago. His February 2008 demise left her helpless. She told an interviewer, "Since my husband's unexpected death, I really have very little energy... My marriagemy love for my husbandseems to have come first in my life, rather than my writing." With this writing, Oates brings back her husbandand herself. Editor's recommendation.

In a work unlike anything she's written before, National Book Award winner Joyce Carol Oates unveils a poignant, intimate memoir about the unexpected death of her husband of forty-six years and its wrenching, surprising aftermath.
"My husband died, my life collapsed."
On a February morning in 2008, Joyce Carol Oates drove her ailing husband, Raymond Smith, to the emergency room of the Princeton Medical Center where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. Both Joyce and Ray expected him to be released in a day or two. But in less than a week, even as Joyce was preparing for his discharge, Ray died from a virulent hospital-acquired infection, and Joyce was suddenly facedtotally unpreparedwith the stunning reality of widowhood.
A Widow's Story illuminates one woman's struggle to comprehend a life without the partnership that had sustained and defined her for nearly half a century. As never before, Joyce Carol Oates shares the derangement of denial, the anguish of loss, the disorientation of the survivor amid a nightmare of "death-duties," and the solace of friendship. She writes unflinchingly of the experience of griefthe almost unbearable suspense of the hospital vigil, the treacherous "pools" of memory that surround us, the vocabulary of illness, the absurdities of commercialized forms of mourning. Here is a frank acknowledgment of the widow's desperationonly gradually yielding to the recognition that "this is my life now."
Enlivened by the piercing vision, acute perception, and mordant humor that are the hallmarks of the work of Joyce Carol Oates, this moving tale of life and death, love and grief, offers a candid, never-before-glimpsed view of the acclaimed author and fiercely private woman.
Editorial Reviews
A wildly unhinged, deeply intimate look at the eminent author's "derangement of Widowhood."
Oates's husband, Ontario Review co-founder Raymond J. Smith, a 78-year-old man in good health, was not supposed to die. In early 2008, he was admitted to the emergency room near their home in Princeton, N.J., and diagnosed with pneumonia. Then he developed complications from an bacterial infection and died of cardiac arrest on Feb. 18, 2008. The shock of losing her husband of 48 years nearly unraveled this author of countless novels, stories and essays, as well as a longtime professor of English at Princeton. In this surreal, nearly hallucinatory journey—she was referred to the Yellow Pages for a funeral home, soon became hooked on tranquilizers to overcome insomnia and often imagined a fiendish creature she calls a basilisk jeering at her—the author chronicles the painful first months of grief and emotional paralysis. Oates (Sourland, 2010, etc.) is a master at creating the interior-driven narrative, and fashions from her experience the character of the Widow—Mrs. Smith—distraught, vulnerable, helpless without the guidance of wise friends, susceptible to crippling regrets, prone to childish self-pity and even erupting in anger at a doctor who suggested that Ray just "gave up." She also invents the character of "JCO," the professor whom she had to "impersonate" at the university, the public self, the co-editor of theOntario Reviewwho had to inform their readers and writers that the literary review had to cease publication. Oates writes with gut-wrenching honesty and spares no one in ripping the illusions off the face of death—the relentless senders of "sympathy gift baskets" clotting her home like "party food," her husband who "threw away both our lives with [his] carelessness contracting a cold" and the friends and acquaintances who mouthed wooden responses.
Oates continues to keep her readers guessing at her next thrilling effort.

Chapter One
The Message
February 15, 2008. Returning to our car that has been haphazardly
parkedby meon a narrow side street near the Princeton Medical
CenterI see, thrust beneath a windshield wiper, what appears to be
a sheet of stiff paper. At once my heart clenches in dismay, guilty ap-
prehensiona ticket? A parking ticket? At such a time? Earlier that
afternoon I'd parked here on my wayhurried, harrieda jangle of
admonitions running through my head like shrieking cicadasif you'd
happened to see me you might have thought pityingly That woman is in
a desperate hurryas if that will do any goodto visit my husband in the
Telemetry Unit of the medical center where he'd been admitted several
days previously for pneumonia; now I need to return home for a few
hours preparatory to returning to the medical center in the early eve-
ninganxious, dry-mouthed and head-aching yet in an aroused state
that might be called hopefulfor since his admission into the medical
center Ray has been steadily improving, he has looked and felt better,
and his oxygen intake, measured by numerals that fluctuate with liter-
ally each breath90, 87, 91, 85, 89, 92is steadily gaining, arrangements
are being made for his discharge into a rehab clinic close by the medical
center(hopeful is our solace in the face of mortality); and now, in the
late afternoon of another of these interminable and exhausting hospital-
dayscan it be that our car has been ticketed?in my distraction I'd
parked illegally?the time limit for parking on this street is only two
hours, I've been in the medical center for longer than two hours, and
see with embarrassment that our 2007 Honda Accordeerily glaring-
white in February dusk like some strange phosphorescent creature in the
depths of the seais inexpertly, still more inelegantly parked, at a slant
to the curb, left rear tire over the white line in the street by several inches,
front bumper nearly touching the SUV in the space ahead. But nowif
this is a parking ticketat once the thought comes to me I won't tell Ray,
I will pay the fine in secret.
Except the sheet of paper isn't a ticket from the Princeton Police De-
partment after all but a piece of ordinary paperopened and smoothed
out by my shaky hand it's revealed as a private message in aggressively
large block-printed letters which with stunned staring eyes I read several
times like one faltering on the brink of an abysslearn to park stuppid bitch.
In this way as in that parable of Franz Kafka in which the most profound
and devastating truth of the individual's life is revealed to him by a passer-by
in the street, as if accidentally, casually, so the Widow-to-Be, like the Widow,
is made to realize that her situation however unhappy, despairing or fraught
with anxiety, doesn't give her the right to overstep the boundaries of others,
especially strangers who know nothing of her"Left rear tire over the white
line in the street."

In February 2008, Ontario review Editor Raymond Smith was not feeling well so his wife of almost five decades noted author Joyce Carol Oates drove him to the Princeton Medical Center. He was diagnosed with pneumonia and admitted as a patient. Both he and his spouse expected him to come home in a few days. Instead he developed an infection and died one week later. This memoir is about Ms. Oates' efforts to move on from the unexpected death of a loved one. Everything reminded her how alone she had become and how much she missed her beloved partner. Ms. Oates confesses she initially expected Raymond to appear any moment to help her with the physical and monetary impacts of his death. However, as she wept agonizingly slowly through the passes of grieving, she realized it is the little things in life that enabled Joyce Smith to survive the biggest tragedy she ever faced. This is an insightful first-hand look at grieving as Ms. Oates confirms grief is personally customized to the loving survivor. Harriet Klausner
Perhaps it is those who have recently lost a loved one who would be attracted to this memoir. This appears to be the case from the other reviews that appear on this page. This may be because of an earnestness, a desperation, that pervades the thoughts of the bereaved. I have recently experienced a death in my family. I disclose this only for context and I will say no more about it, except to say that when I read about Ms. Oates' memoir in the New York Review of Books and The New Yorker I was immediately drawn to it. Her book does a good job of describing the personal and spiritual disintegration that occurs following a death. Two things undermine the power of this book. The first is the author's unabashed self involvement. She often refers to herself in the third person as "the widow." I cannot think of any third person self reference as not being pretentious unless it is self deprecating. If you lose someone you love dearly, your are disarmed and wounded by this death, and all roads lead to the one you have lost. Ms. Oates makes it clear that she was plenty wounded by the death of her husband, yet all roads lead to her. She soon ceases to be the victim of her bereavement and instead uses it to interpret how she perceives her life and the actions of those around her. Where for some, bereavement allows them to explore avenues of compassion toward others, especially those clumsy in conveying their sympathy, not so for Ms. Oates. She points out that practically everything and everybody is insensitive to what she is going through and woe unto those who would tread upon her anger and loss. The second is that the author is Joyce Carol Oates, a literary powerhouse who does not experience ordinary life the way the rest of us do. If she writes about a letter or a conversation with a friend or colleague, it is Edmund Wilson, John Updike, or Phillip Roth. In this way the book becomes an inroad to the literary life populated by those with the calling and considerable talent to be writers. I admit this enthralled me, but it removed her experience from my own. Yet this memoir bears its gifts for the bereaved. When the author is going through a bag of cards and letters she received after her husband's death, finally able to do so, she uncovers a gem: "You will be grief stricken for the rest of your life, but don't lose your vitality." And this, quoted in the New York Review of Books' article: "We who are living - we who have survived - understand that our guilt is what links us to the dead. At times we can hear them calling to us, a growing incredulity in their voices You will not forget me - with you? How can you forget me? I have no one but you."
This memoir was helpful to me in many ways after I have been through the loss of too many loved ones in the past 5 years. She shows wonderful depth, and insight into the world of those who have lost and are coping and attempting to integrate those losses into their lives as they move forward. That being said-this book also seems to be an outlet for several petty slights, differences with those who do not matter to the author and to those who are unable or unfortunate enough to have gotten on Mrs. Smiths (Oates) bad side (administration at the university) or unlucky enough to have sent her a condolence card. Her manners for those who attempt in their own foundling way to convey their condolence-is not forgivable. There are times where she seem to take particular joy in cutting them down via her reader. This is unprofessional and unfair. I know first hand family members who have behaved with more bravery and decency than this author when faced with 3x the tragedy. I am not going to be looking for more of her novels anytime soon.
The first few hundred pages were engaging...the rest took me weeks to slog through only necause i dojnt giveup on a book easily..i love this woman and what she has experienced but it became a ramble
Joyce Carol Oates' angst is so keenly expressed that the reader becomes part of her story. It is impossible not to feel her pain, her fright at being left alone, and her second guessing about what she could have done to prevent this death. I suggested that a friend of mine who was newly widowed read this book. She was expressing the same kind of feelings about the fears of being alone, the thought that maybe there was something she missed that could have prolonged her husband's life. My friend felt somewhat relieved to have her feelings expressed by a writer we have been reading for several years. This is a book that engages women of any age.
Joyce carol oates has written a very descriptive portral of what it feels to be a widow i lost my husband suddenly to pneumonia also. If you want to get a clear understanding of what a widow goes through when she loses her husband and the life she knew, read this book. It helped me to realize that i am not going crazy.
I have always loved her books. She expressed what I think I would be feeling had my husband died unexpectedly. Painful but worth the time.
Any time a woman writer dares to reveal the truth behind the mask, especially when it is "unseemly," she is reaching out her hand in compassion to every woman. In "A Widow's Story" Joyce Carol Oates unmasks herself, sometimes brutally, and through her courage we, the readers, are given an opportunity to see and honor the fralities of our own humanity and that of others in the face tragedy. I am truly sorry that Ms. Oates had to experience such a devastating loss, and yet so grateful that she transformed her anguish into a gift to others.
very heartfelt and enlightening. one i will come back to again and again.
I was looking for support when I bought this book having had several deaths in the family in a short time span. The first chapters are fine but the material becomes very self-centered and repetitive. I did finish the book albeit grudgingly!
I found this book quite moving. I wanted to reach out and help in some way to alleviate the bereft woman and realized I was simply a witness to the author's grief and loneliness. I was glad to see the glimmers of light and recovery as the book progressed.
I just could not finish this book. I lost interest reading all the e-mails (too personal) and the poetry readings. Redundant in her use of the word "widow" pushed me over the edge. Sorry

When using snmpd in proxy mode, there seem to be problems when more than one OID is requested in a single PDU and (at least) one of them does not exist in the agent to which the request is forwarded.
Consider this scenario:
snmpd is running on localhost:1611, the line relevant for proxying in snmpd.conf is:
proxy -v 1 -c private localhost:1161 .18.104.22.168.4.1.7146
The agent has been started like this:
$ ./snmpd -Dproxy -f -r -V -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf 1611
Now consider the following request (the last OID does not exist):
$ snmpget -r 0 -t 10000 -v 1 -c public localhost:1611 \ .188.8.131.52.4.1.7126.96.36.199.220.127.116.11.188.8.131.52.220.127.116.11.18.104.22.168.220.127.116.11.97 \ .220.127.116.11.4.1.7188.8.131.52.126.96.36.199.22.214.171.124.126.96.36.199.126.96.36.199.22.214.171.124.103 \ .184.108.40.206.4.1.7220.127.116.11.220.127.116.11.188.8.131.52.18.104.22.168.126.96.36.199.126.96.36.199.100 \
snmpd forwards this request to the agent listening at port 1161 of the same host, which duly returns an error PDU. However, it seems that snmpd is then not handling this scenario correctly, as I've observed the following results:
* In version 5.2.2, no answer is ever sent back to the client, the request times out. The reason was that snmpd did not clear the "delegated" flag for all parts of the request. This has been fixed in the latest release.
* Even in the latest svn snapshot, however, handling is not as expected. The standard demands the pdu be returned unaltered except for the error-status and the error-index fields. snmpd, however, does not send back the OIDs that have been requested. Therefore, snmpget assumes that all three OIDs are erroneous. Usually, however, when answering a request that is not proxied, snmpd returns a PDU with the correct information. snmpget then resends the request without the offending
OID, receives a valid response and displays the result.
The following patch seems to fix this issue as far as SNMP v1 is concerned, but might have to be improved for SNMP v2:
--- agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/proxy.c (revision 16401)
+++ agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/proxy.c (working copy)
@@ -551,7 +551,9 @@
* update the original request varbinds with the results
- } else for (var = vars, request = requests;

Nice clean spacious lodge but lacking in basic things -
Seen many reviews regarding the lack of a mirror !! Still hasnt been sorted and the owners didnt seem interested when we asked about it at the beginning of the holiday - Only small problem but its very annoying not having one
Also if going with small children - its lacks places to hang the kiddies clothes etc - has big walk in wardrobes but just one rail and a few hangers
Parking still a pain as couldnt park on the drive and had to park on a horrible angle - not good when trying to get kids out the car and on my back

Ionly gave a 9 for overall rating and furniture and fittings because the main bedroom lacked a mirror. A hairdryer was provided but no mirror to use with it. I did mention this to the owner and I think they took my comment on board.

Excellent accommodation in beautiful surroundings. A fabulous choice for a holiday.

Stayed at Silver Trees in one of the two lodges, Doe View Lodge. We were a family of 2 adults with 6 and 8 year old girls.
The lodge is built and furnished to a very high quality, with every comfort and convenience you may need to have an enjoyable break. This included three TVs, bluetooth speaker, comfortable leather sofas, ample kitchen equipment, decent wifi, a great shower and comfortable beds.
Upon arrival, the lodge was very clean and tidy and the owners walked us to the lodge, gave us a quick tour and plenty of advice. The owners and other residents were friendly and chatty and were happy to give advice on where to go and what to do in the local area.
The park boasts free roaming deer around the site. To be honest, we assumed there was a little marketing exaggeration here and kept our fingers crossed to see some during our stay. We were wrong. We saw our first deer before we got to reception and within a hour they were literally eating from our hands. We continued to see them throughout the stay. Absolutely amazing.
The park is really quiet, never got loud and there was minimal traffic. There is no club, no shop and no children's play park. Whilst some may see this as a negative, for us it was a big positive. The park is a really relaxing place to be, right on the edge of Cannock Chase with plenty of outdoor activities in the local area.
The pool on site is run on a private booking system, meaning that that you have the whole pool to yourself. We've never seen this system before, but it worked really well and there was no problems booking the pool when you wanted it.
We would 100% recommend Silver Trees to others and we will be back.

"Koenigs Wusterhausen" Königs Wusterhausen by Mandy23
Königs Wusterhausen Travel Guide: 21 reviews and 39 photos
Koenigs Wusterhausen is located in the German state of Brandenburg and in the "Dahme-Spreewald" region & has approx. 31.200 inhabitants.
It's just a quiet town. You might pass by it on your way to or from Berlin but it doesn't have any big "sights" for which people come long ways to see them. It's a little town relatively close to Berlin with many apartment complexes, a few high schools and shops.
By the way, the Sister City of Koenigs Wusterhausen is Germantown/Tennessee.

It is well recognized that lymphocytes and lymphopoietic tissue, as a whole, play an important role in antibody formation to antigenic stimuli whether bacterial or transplantation in origin.1 Methods known to suppress the graft rejection such as irradiation, steroids, and antimetabolites all decrease the leukocyte count, especially the lymphocyte population of the body.
Lymphocytes presumably formed in different tissues of the body (lymph nodes, spleen, thymus) are brought to the general circulation at least in part via the thoracic duct and accessory lymphatic channels. Kay commented that "presumably, lymphoid stem cells which are constantly poured from the thoracic duct into the blood stream are the active agents (for immune response)."2 Thus, creation of a thoracic duct fistula, thereby preventing the lymphocytes from gaining entrance to the venous circulation, could be utilized to decrease the lymphocyte population of the blood and result in decreasing or preventing their immunologic response.

For over 80 years, Festool has carefully cultivated a reputation for innovation in the woodworking industry. Since Gottlieb Stoll and Albert Fezer founded the business in 1925, over 300 patents and 80 awards for products and business have been awarded to Festool supporting their commitment to quality and innovation.
Over the years, Festool has rolled out numerous industry benchmarks, including the first orbital sander, the first eccentric sander, the Rotex® dual-mode sander, the first brushless drill driver, and the revolutionary DOMINO® tenon joiner. Today, the Festool name is recognized as an industry leader and well regarded as a producer of some of the highest quality tools available.
Festool's reputation for precision, attention to detail, and exceptional ergonomics is unmatched in the industry. How did they achieve such high standards? Product developers for Festool take the time to visit real-world shops. They study woodworkers as they work in their shops, garages or basements and then design tools specifically with those woodworkers in mind. With every machine they aim to eliminate unnecessary steps, improve accuracy and produce superior results. Festool engineers also tailor their tools precisely to the human hand. They study the way woodworkers move and refine the ergonomics to make the motions as natural and comfortable as possible.
At Festool, each tool is designed with its neighboring tool in mind. Dust extraction, for example, is seamlessly integrated into every tool. Turn the tool on and off and the vacuum automatically turns on and off. The Systainer storage cases that come with every tool click neatly onto one another, as well as on top of the dust extractors. Simply close the case, click it in place and roll your entire workstation to the next work area. The famous Festool guide rails work with routers and plunge cut saws alike, allowing you to pack a small woodworking shop into a couple of Systainer cases.
Over the years, Festool has produced numerous patents and new technologies, and they are constantly reassessing old standards to refine each tool in every possible way. Consider Festool's Carvex jigsaw or the Kapex miter saw. Each style of machine is widely used and has been around years but Festool found a way to reinvent them both by adding features and accessories you won't find anywhere else.
Across the board, Festool delivers machines with high tolerances, low vibration, excellent heat dissipation and top-quality materials that combine to make quiet, comfortable, durable tools that help you work, "Faster, Easier and Smarter."
Great Saw Review by Andrew
As with every Festool product, after looking at the price tag, your first question is — is it worth paying that much money? You can certainly get a very capable miter saw for less. What you won't get is second-to-none build quality, an insane warranty and top-notch HEPA dust extraction. If you have a small shop, as I do, I highly recommend the Mobile Miter Station. Not only does it provide a solid base when you're using the KS 120, but it folds up — with the Kapex attached. This means it doesn't take up much space when you're not using it, but it can be ready for use in about 15 seconds. I also recommend the Cart Extensions. They take up almost no space when not it use, set up quickly and provide a solid work surface for cutting long boards. The integrated sale (metric) really does allow you to make cuts that are accurate to the millimeter!
First class finish Review by Dave
This acquisition is a conversion from an old circular saw (with a wobbly blade) to a track saw. I have already used it in both normal as well as plunge mode, both with the track. It is precise, with intuitive operations and excellent dust collection. The saw rides in the track smoothly and without any play. As other reviewers have mentioned, the power, though adequate for my needs, may cause it to struggle a bit with thick hardwoods. I have often balked at the Festool prices but in the end I have never regretted any Festool purchase.
Hands-down the best way to join stock Review by Mark
I would not be the first to say that the domino system is the best way to join stock. I am currently using it on trim. I join the trim pieces before installing them so that all of my pieces stay nice and tight. Simple and fast and strong. There is really not much else to say about it. I did also get the systainer with the variety pack of dominos and the additional cutters.
You need this sander! Review by Robert
I recently purchased the Festool RO 90. I am amazed at the versatility of this tool and with the Festool dust collection capabilities, I can use it anywhere and not be concerned about dust, unlike most other sanders. I bought it to refinish some kitchen cabinets to paint them and the capabilities of the RO 90 to go from removal of the current finish to a final sanding that I thought I could never achieve was amazing! I forgot to mention that the headlights of my old beater pickup truck look great after I went thru the steps up to 8000 grit and now they look brand new!
A requirement for making sqaure cuts Review by Andrew
Festool markets this product as a way to make repeatable cuts, which it does very well. However, the Parallel Guide Set is really handy for quickly and accurately squaring-up any piece of wood. IMHO, the Parallel Guide Set, Fs-Rapid Clamp and a MFT/3 are the cornerstone to allowing you to square-up any piece of wood that will fit under a Festool Track. Here's the procedure I use:
1. Make a straight cut along the longest edge of the board. For small-ish boards, this can be done with the MFT/3 using the squaring arm and the 1080 Track that come with the table. For longer word pieces, you can use the Fs-Rapid Clamp and the track that comes with your Track Saw.
2. Take the (now) straight edge and line it up against the squaring arm on the MFT/3 and use the 1080 Track that comes with the MFT/3 to cut the short edge.
3. Flip the board over and cut the second short edge in the same manner. You now have three straight edges that are square to each other.
4. The two short edges are now parallel. Use the Parallel Guide to cut the other long edge. The work pieces is now square.

Ten Different Health Benefits Of Marijuana, Why Would You Not Want This Medicine?
Posted on02. Sep, 2015 by Admin.
10. Treatment of Glaucoma
If you are one of the millions who have been suffering from glaucoma, then smoking marijuana can help you get the best eyesight and relieve pressure from they eyes. Intraocular pressure can increase in certain individuals, especially those who have diabetes. Glaucoma is serious disease that can cause blindness.
9. Manage Epileptic Seizures
People who suffer from epileptic disorders or seizures can get tremendous relief and relaxation from smoking marijuana.
8. Pain Reliever
Marijuana ingestion can benefit your health when used to lessen the pain of MS, Rheumatoid arthritis and migraines. Also those sufferers of HIV, amputation, alcoholism and spinal surgery who are experiencing nerve pain seem to have a lessening of their pain when they are on a medical marijuana treatment protocol.
Marijuana, in the 2010 Canadian study, was found in these patients to be many more times more effective then aspirin in limiting their perception of pain. Medicinal marijuana is administered in more controlled dosages, and strengths that is found on the street. It is a stated goal of physicians to "do no harm." The lessening of a patient's pain, represents the epitome of this goal.
7. Prevents the Spread of Cancer
There is a chemical found in marijuana that has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Researchers believe the process is that cannabidiol turns off the Id-1 gene. Cancer cells duplicate this gene in higher numbers than non-cancerous cells.
Researchers also studied breast cancer cells in the lab that contained Id-1 in high quantities. They were treated with cannibidiol. The result of this treatment was a lower incidence of Id-1 and the remaining genes were found to be less invasive.
There have been studies done in the US, Spain and Israel that posit that chemicals in marijuana can actually mean the death of cancer cells.
6. THC Reduces the Growth of Alzheimer's
THC can help to slow down the progression of Alzheimer's disease. A study from 2006 found that chemicals in this drug can help keep amyloid plaques from forming. This will help keep you from getting this disease, and legalizing this drug could have everything to do with finding a cure.
5. Reduces the Spread of HIV
Cannabis is highly regarded in the medical community for it's effectiveness in treating patients with HIV. People who have contracted the disease suffer from weight loss and body aches amongst other many things however, a new research that suggest cannabis might be able to halt the spread of the disease altogether has come to light. Additionally, a study was conducted in Louisiana; in this research scientists gave a daily dose of THC to primates who had contracted an animal form of the HIV. Over the course of the study, scientists found that the damage to immune system in the primates' stomach had decreased.
4. Relieves Arthritis Pain
Marijuana will help with rheumatoid arthritis pain, swelling and allow them to have restful sleep .According to a 2011 study, where a cannabis based pain killer was given to rheumatoid arthritic patients, there was a marked decrease in observable pain, compared to the administration of a placebo.
Rheumatoid arthritis can be an extremely debilitating disease, striking the joints of the affected patients. The subsequent swelling causes a reduction in the range of motion. But this kind of arthritis is different than osteoarthritis, the kind one gets with old age. RA is an autoimmune disease, meaning in effect your body is attacking healthy cells. Any age group can get it, and any gender, but women are stricken the most.
3. Slows Metabolism, Helps with Weight Loss
Another use for medicinal marijuana is stimulating appetite. Recent studies by the National Cancer Institute indicate that the inhalation of cannabis can lead to an increased consumption of calories. Conversely, studies published in the American Journal of Medicine suggested that pot smokers are skinnier than the average person. They studied their levels of the hormone insulin and their blood sugar levels, and even though marijuana users consume more calories, they tend to have a healthier metabolism and a better reaction to sugars. The study analyzed data from more than 4,500 adult Americans – 579 of whom were current marijuana smokers, meaning they had smoked in the last month. About 2,000 had used marijuana in the past, while another 2,000 had never used the drug.
2. Calms Tremors in Parkinson's Patients
Research has shown for patients suffering from the debilitating disease Parkinson, smoking pot can help reduce pain and tremors. It has been show to increase sleep quality as well as improving fine motor skills. Much of this research has been conducted in Israel.
Being able to release muscle tension, is another benefit of medical marijuana. A study done by the American Cancer Society shows that patients suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS), who used a liquid form of cannabis, encountered a reduced in muscle spasms as well shaking.
Another study done on eight MS patients, in advanced stages, showed a reduction in tremors and muscle stiffness.
1. Helps Veterans Afflicted with PTSD
Marijuana is a safer and less harmful alternative to traditional PTSD treatment. The relaxing effect marijuana has on the user without the fuzzy mental state caused by antidepressants can allow soldiers to relieve their anxiety without having to feel medicated. Antidepressants and other drugs prescribed for PTSD possess a high risk for addiction and are not recommended for use over long periods of time. Marijuana use can fluctuate, wane, or increase depending on the state of the patient with little no side effects based upon the amount of usage. There are no conclusive studies that indicate marijuana is addicting in the traditional sense of drug addiction such as substances with opiates. Marijuana may be the safest anti depressant on the market.

MPP Calls on NIDA to Investigate Benefits of Regulating Marijuana
Posted on20. Dec, 2013 by Admin.
Following the Wednesday release of a national survey on teen drug use, sponsored by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP) called on the agency to investigate whether regulating marijuana like alcohol and cigarettes could produce similar reductions in use among teens.
According to the annual Monitoring the Future national survey on drug use, the current use of alcohol and tobacco has dropped among teens in the 8th, 10th, and 12th grades. Current marijuana use increased slightly among 8th- and 10th-graders and decreased slightly among 12th-graders. Current use is defined as use within the past 30 days.
"The results suggest that regulating alcohol and cigarettes is successfully reducing teen use, whereas marijuana prohibition has been unsuccessful," said MPP director of communications Mason Tvert. "At the very least, this data should inspire NIDA to examine the possibility that regulating marijuana like alcohol and cigarettes could be a more effective approach than the current system."
Yesterday, MPP issued a release based on a preliminary summary of the survey results, in which it announced its expectation that marijuana use had not increased among teens. The full survey results show that marijuana use within thirty days of the survey has increased from 6.5% to 7% among 8th-graders and from 17% to 18% among 10th-graders. It has decreased from 22.9% to 22.7% among 12th-graders. Current alcohol use has decreased from 11% to 10.2% among 8th-graders, from 27.6% to 25.7% among 10th-graders, and from 41.5% to 39.2% among 12th-graders. Cigarette use in the past thirty days decreased from 4.9% to 4.5% among 8th-graders, from 10.8% to 9.1% among 10th-graders, and from 17.1% to 16.3% among 12th-graders.
"Those selling marijuana in the underground market are not asking for ID," Tvert said. "By regulating marijuana like alcohol and cigarettes and enforcing similar age restrictions, we would very likely see a similar decrease in availability and use among teens."
Colorado's experience with regulating medical marijuana suggests that regulation might be reducing teen use. According to the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System survey released in June 2012 by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, marijuana use by Colorado high school students dropped 11% from 2009 to 2011, the time period in which the state and its localities began regulating medical marijuana. Nationwide, teen marijuana use increased 11% during that time period.

Study Substantiates Benefits Of Cannabinoids For Post Traumatic Stress
Posted on22. May, 2013 by Admin.
Brain imaging research published this month in the journal Molecular Psychiatry provides physiological evidence as to why cannabis may mitigate certain symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Post-traumatic stress syndrome is an anxiety disorder that is estimated to impact some eight million Americans annually. Yet, to date, there are no pharmaceutical treatments specifically designed or approved to target symptoms of PTSD.
Investigators at the New York University School of Medicine and the New York University Langone Medical Center, Steven and Alexandra Cohen Veterans Center for the Study of Post-Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injury reported that subjects diagnosed with PTSD typically possess elevated quantities of endogenous cannabinoid receptors in regions of the brain associated with fear and anxiety. Investigators also determined that many of these subjects experience a decrease in their natural production of anandamide, an endogenous cannabinoid neurotransmitter, resulting in an imbalanced endocannibinoid regulatory system.
Researchers speculated that an increase in the body's production of cannabinoids would likely restore subjects' natural brain chemistry and psychological balance. They affirmed, "[Our] findings substantiate, at least in part, emerging evidence that … plant-derived cannabinoids such as marijuana may possess some benefits in individuals with PTSD by helping relieve haunting nightmares and other symptoms of PTSD."
They concluded: "The data reported herein are the first of which we are aware of to demonstrate the critical role of CB1 (cannabinoid) receptors and endocannabinoids in the etiology of PTSD in humans. As such, they provide a foundation upon which to develop and validate informative biomarkers of PTSD vulnerability, as well as to guide the rational development of the next generation of evidence-based treatments for PTSD."
Anecdotal evidence and case study reports have increasingly indicated that cannabis may mitigate traumatic memories and anxiety. However, clinical trial data remains unavailable, in large part because US federal officials have blocked investigators' efforts to study cannabis in PTSD subjects. In 2011 federal administrators halted efforts by investigators at the University of Arizona to complete an FDA-approved, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the use of cannabis in 50 veterans with treatment-resistant PTSD.
PTSD is also seldom identified as a qualifying condition in states that allow for the physician authorized use of cannabis therapy. (To date, only New Mexico explicitly cites PTSD as a qualifying condition for cannabis treatment, although a handful of other states, like California, allow doctors the discretion to legally recommend marijuana for post-trauma subjects.) In Oregon, lawmakers in the House are considering Senate-approved legislation, SB 281, that would allow PTSD patients to legally consume cannabis under the state's nearly 15-year-old medical marijuana program.

Human Marijuana Trials Moving Forward to Determine Medical Benefits
Posted on11. Apr, 2013 by Admin.
Thousands of medical marijuana patients in the United States rely on the drug to alleviate a multitude of symptoms from cachexia to nerve pain; nevertheless, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) still considers it a Schedule I controlled substance that has no accepted medical use.
Despite this law-enforcement-agency-approved "analysis," doctors are conducting their own research. In Israel, the Meir Medical Center is recruiting Crohn's Disease sufferers for a study on the ability of marijuana to treat the inflammatory bowel disease, which affects 400,000-600,000 North Americans.
In San Francisco, for more than five years, doctors at California Pacific Medical Center have been studying the effects of the marijuana compound cannabidiol (CBD) on metastatic cancer cells (i.e., very aggressive tumor cells). In their recently published large-scale animal trial, brain scans revealed the disruption of tumor cells after CBD was used to switch off a specific gene regulator.
These promising results left researchers optimistic and they believe that the findings warrant human trials. They will work to secure funding in the upcoming months for two trial groups, one for brain cancer and the other for breast cancer.
Will these and other studies finally convince our government that science, not myth, should dictate how we approach marijuana?

Hey, I am about to start working on an app. I am a beginner, so I am starting out with a pretty basic concept. But, I was wondering if it was possible to send texts from an app. For example, if the person using my app sets a new high score, could they hit a publish button and my app could then send a text to his buddy bragging about the new high score.
Also, what if someone is using my app and they receive a text, does the OS take over, or do I have to handle the reception of text/calls. Is it possible to alter the way the phone behaves when my app is disrupted by calls/texts.
Thanks for any advice you can give. Have a good Monday everyone!

Hi - Was wondering what advantages Yahoo offered over the free wordpress.com service?
Also, is it possible to customise templates when hosting with yahoo, or are you limited to the pre-made themes?
Hi - Was wondering what advantages Yahoo offered over the free wordpress.com service?
Also, is it possible to customise templates when hosting with yahoo, or are you limited to the pre-made themes?
The other way around: when being hosted at wp.com (for which we do not offer support, just to clarify from the beginning :) you cannot modify templates and cannot choose other themes than those offered by them.
When hosted on Y I guess it's like with any "normal" host: you can have unlimited number of themes.
I'm a bit surprised you didn't ask what the disadvantages of using Yahoo for hosting are...
I've had first hand experience with them, so if you're curious what they are like as a host, let us know and I'll give you some examples.
I didn't want to go there - but, please, share your experience.
Ok, so I used to use Yahoo for my hosting, and I stayed with them for about a year or so. There are some very important limitations you should consider:
- You cannot use .htaccess with Yahoo hosting
- that means you're stuck with the default permalinks
- anything else you might want to use .htaccess for is out
- Yahoo hosting is terribly expensive for what you get in return
- i was paying 17.95/month for 10gb of space, and that is after a discount (i also used to be a SBC dial-up user back in the day, and i held onto that account for various reasons, so I received discounts on Yahoo hosting)
- If you call/email them for support with hosting, the only advice they will offer is that you restore a backup
- and if that doesn't solve your issue, they will only suggest that you start from scratch
- the support center they use for hosting is not outfitted with experts, only with bodies; they won't be able to offer meaningful advice or assistance
- When you decide to leave them, they will give you conflicted information on how to proceed (Yahoo isn't a registrar, they are a reseller for MelbourneIT)
- when i decided to cancel my hosting, they informed me that i had to cancel my account first, then do the transfer of my domain to the registrar of my choice. this conflicts with their online 'help' content, which warns that if you cancel the account before transferring, that all will be lost.
- Yahoo uses Windows servers
- limitations aplenty with win servers, just search around for examples
- Yahoo will not, under any circumstances, install software on their server at the request of a customer
- almost all hosting providers are willing to work with you on this; btw i'm not talking about WP or other user level apps, i'm talking about server level apps (eg. if you need a custom version of PHP compiled with options you require, Yahoo will never do this for you, whereas a 'good' host will work with you on this)
All of the above was enough to make me switch. I joined Yahoo hosting because at the time, I hadn't done enough research, and the price seemed good. Since then, I've researched it a lot more, and found Yahoo to be extremely lacking and expensive.
This is all just my opinion of course, based on my experiences with Yahoo. You may find that they work fine for your needs.
:) Good luck!!
And just to add something to this:
I used them before, as well, and was surprised at this "partnership".
I just signed up for a Yahoo hosting account with Word Press mainly to test it out... trying to figure out if I should migrate a bunch of course blogs I have on Blogger (hosted by third party) to WordPress.
I like WordPress better but like app. service provider approach of Blogger better because my tech skills are very basic... having WordPress hosted with easy interface and what I thought would be reliability from Yahoo seemed like best of both worlds.
The main reason I stuck with Blogger was that it had a big company, Google behind it so thought (maybe naively) that their uptime would be good...
Thanks for your feedback re: Yahoo hosting... I have been trying to hear about people's experience with using WordPress on Yahoo and having hard time finding much.
I think you can modify permlinks with the Yahoo hosting. Here's what they let you do...
"By default WordPress uses web URIs which have question marks and lots of numbers in them, however WordPress offers you the ability to create a custom URI structure for your permalinks and archives. This can improve the aesthetics, usability, and forward-compatibility of your links. A number of tags are available, and here are some examples to get you started.
Common options:
Date and name based
Custom, specify below
I'm also finding it doesn't take long to create multiple blogs and although I realize now from Moshu that they are really just single installations, it still is nice how you can access from one interface (blogs are listed conveniently below each other like how Blogger service lists multiple blogs). I just have to log into my account and then I can quickly access my different blogs.
Take care,
I will avoid Yahoo like the plague! (though Yahoo Sales are doing noble job in fending off would be subscribers themselves - I couldn't find anyone to talk to who actually knew that they offered WordPress.)
Will give Bluehost a shot...
Thanks for the feedback.
This does not bode well for this forum..........
laur, I've used bluehost for about 6 months. No complaints here. They're quite competent and have always been helpful to my requests for support.
Yah, podz - could get hairy and scary real fast....
3x a charm! I know, my fault for not backing up but it isn't like I haven't tried. Actually, I have been backing up, with the wp-db-backup plugin but I inquired, and no, it does not restore. The author did recommend some other plugin but I can't remember what it was and he hasn't answered back when I inquired again anyway!
Anyway, using that very plugin last night to backup before hitting the hay, I forgot to select the option to email me the file (like I had been doing) vs downloading it so when it was done, I canceled and then the problem started. It hung up for a whole minute or so, a very nervous long minute. When it came back, I selected the email option and kicked it off again, it appeared to finish fine and I crashed. I opened WP in the morning and was not able to access the db and after messing with it for about 3 hrs, finally called Y! They of course, don't support WP (which I knew already) but you wouldn't know that if you read their banner (see the hosting page on this very site!); and no, it is not even WP2.0 official, it is the RC2 or 3 version as of today 1/10/05. They do have something called Snapshot but I had to dig hi and low for that and never did get it working.
Also, I couldn't get the logon info for phpMyAdmin (which you have to manually install also) and I never heard back from the Sourceforge guys that run the phpMyAdmin site (O/S).
All in all, VERY FRUSTRATED WITH YAHOO even though they have been my email client for 3+ years. At least that was free and has been worth every penny of it lol.
My advice stay away from Y!, and DreamHost has no support either, which is why I switched to Y! but I just can't take it anymore.
Alright Moshu, I'm gonna give Below$10Hosting a shot based on your comments above; I sure hope they are not like the other two crappy companies you guys have advertising right on this WordPress site (giving all newcomers a false sense of security). BAD BAD BAD! Yes I've been up for 13 hrs, just got home from school, it's only 2pm, I'm tired and I'm gonna give another host a shot, wish me luck. Hopefully I've helped somebody (who made it thru all my ranting and raving) lol, sorry. I think I'll start at the $4.99 /month plan :-)
Just for the record:
I never advised anybody about Below$10Hosting...
(I didn't even know about their existence till now :)
Yeah, I don't think that is gonna work, playing email-tag with them already. Who has the best rep from what you hear Moshu?
1. Please, don't bump - it doesn't help and will annoy the helpers around here.
2. I don't have first hand experience with more than 2 hosts, so I am not going to endorse any company based on "hearsay" :)
3. Yes, sometimes I warn users about certain hosts, if I've encountered repeated problems raised by users here.
4. I am happy with my host: all the WP features work as they are supposed to, never had problems with permalinks, trackbacks, pings, feeds and other issues that seem to be a perpetual problem around here at every upgrade. Too bad they don't have an affiliate program to get paid if I recommend them, LOL...
"Please, don't bump - it doesn't help and will annoy the helpers around here."
Did you notice the 20 hour time difference before you even thought about posting "annoying helpers"? Believe me, I am not LOL like you choose to close your above statement with.
All we want to know is a reputable host that someone with some authority (meaning you as a moderator on the WP forum) would suggest we look into. That shouldn't be considered an official endorsement, everyone has an opinion.
And of course, you close without mentioning one, again wasting my time.
Fact is, I have firsthand knowledge with two of the host companies that are listed on this WP host site and they both suck, DreamHost & Yahoo. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. Of course, no host, no blog. I know, my loss. Wait 'til I get another blog though!
EDIT: Even going here http://wordpress.com/ (which is for WordPress to host you) says nothing about what they offer or what you can or cannot do.
BillyG, chill and go get an account with http://www.bluehost.com
I've never had a problem with them.
From the hosting page, in two years here I have never seen a single complaint about Laughingsquid.
A Small Orange are very good.
Site5 are good.
Below10: They are excellent. Why you didn't receive a reply mail I have no idea (unless you were as impolite with them as you have been here lately); I've never been more than 20 minutes waiting for them to respond even before I set up with them.
Moshu: Below10 was ref'd in the post you linked to on bj's blog.
Getting mixed signal about Bluehost. Here's its fine, but refer to:-
So how? :)
I'm currently with Powweb (which is no longer recommended, btw). Speed issues and limited mySQL dbs prompted me to hint for a new host. Whadayaknow? WP recommends Yahoo! So off I jumped with both feet in.
It took 3 days to migrate my site (luckily the original is still live). Had so many stumbling blocks (not all due to Yahoo :)), and their built in plugins caused lotsa of unnecessary issues. To date (day 5), there are things not functioning properly and needs tinkering.
No tech skill + no support= lotsa frustration and wasted time. I'm just about ready to pack it. On a features vs price consideration, Bluehost seems sooo tempting.
I haven't noticed any issues that that article refers to. The only issue I've had (I use Bluehost) in the last couple weeks was using FTP. I called them and they told me to switch to passive mode, which fixed the problem.
I've been with them for quite awhile now and am very satisfied. I finally dumped Yahoo because of zero support on their side.
All I can tell you, dmagus, is that I've never had a problem with them.
For what it is worth, and let me know if anyone has had any problems with them so I can look out in the future. I use hostgator.com. Three things, I have had sites with them for over a year and a half and haven't run into anything I couldn't do on my own (seems to be wide open whether it is a good thing or not). Two, you can offer reseller hosting and try to make a buck or two back for only a few dollars more, or if you have multiple domains, it is a great way to save on your hosting costs. Three, cpanel, fanstico (which will install wordpress 1.5 for you), mysql, phpmyadmin, and tons of scripts.
I resell their server space and sell it for less than they do and they give me the software to do it. I have operated more than three wp installs on one domain (my kids blog pages) and have never had a database error yet.
Hope this may help some.
I can offer my little experience here as a few names mentioned above are familiar. I have been with dreamhost for about 10 days, so much trouble I left to Site5. I still have account with them and still getting server down emails from Dreamhost from time to time. However they are good in paying you back.
Site5 is small but people are great there if you are newbie/no-brainer like me go for them.
I recently joined Yahoo, just for fun, created some troubles for myself but that was good for learning.
Don't expect the kind of humanly service like smaller hostings, you don't get straight answers most of them time and all the time you don't get answers to all your questions. Just don't use them if you are new to hosting.
They don't run Apache at the backend, that's for sure. So your permalink must have /index.php/ prefix, that's in the instruction so follow it you'll be OK. I have initial problems creating database but that was probably due to my lack of knowledge about phpMyAdmin, can't blame Yahoo. I haven't fallen in love with 2.0 yet so I manually installed 1.5.2 without much hassle so I won't say Yahoo has a major issue with database user and the like. I did ask them to manually grant me full privileges such that I could reload mysql, it was done OK. Their ftp server isn't very stable, be ware of transferring folders with lots of files.
Once in a while you can't login to phpMyAdmin and I have to say their servers are not fast comparing to smaller hosting.
My warning is that don't use them if you are new to hosting.
I used Yahoo as a host quite a few years ago. Just like gdvw I found them to be rather expensive for what they offered, and I hadn't done any research/didn't know better. I currently use http://www.realwebhost.com/ for my wordpress blog and I'm very happy with them. I've been with them for about a year and a half to two years.
Hi all,
One more thing about Yahoo is that, you pay by month instead of yearly payment for smaller hostings, i.e. you can quit and within 30days you can rejoin. I haven't yet looked into how to quit presumably I don't need to serve notice or anything like that so maximum lost is a month's fee. Anybody has cancellation experience for Yahoo here?
Have to say again, practice your backup and restore of database just in case.
Most hosts will allow for month to month payments. I know mine does. They just offer the annual payment as a cheaper overall option, and if you leave you do get your money back for the time you didn't use. Just my opinion - but if you see 30 day payments as a perk because you can leave without worrying about refunds then you're with the wrong host (same goes for personal relationships). :p
Choose Yahoo! hosting is the worst choice I ever made and it really gives bad publicity to wordpress. My site was contantly down, at times I couldn't even connect to my webhosting manager.
I run a popular weblog and when big sites like Yahoo! (ironically) linked to my site, giving me spectacular exposure, it wend down again.
It's funny to see that the Yahoo! search pages are never down because they're a big business. It's not because we run small businesses that we have to be treated like sh*t.
Stay away from Yahoo! hosting at all costs! I've been with them for two weeks and I'm switching. Damn, even the robbers and liars over at lunarpages have a higher uptime.
And one last thing, when a customer send two mails for support and is completely ignored, it's not Yahoo! anymore, it's Yapooh!
