Chronic heart failure very often gets worse over time. Many people who have heart failure die of the condition. It can be hard to think and talk about the type of care you want at the end of your life. However, discussing these subjects with your doctors and loved ones may help bring you peace of mind.
You may have already discussed heart transplantation and the use of a ventricular assist device with your doctor.
At some point, you will be faced with the decision about whether to continue active or aggressive treatment of heart failure. Then, you may want to discuss the option of palliative or comfort care with your doctors and loved ones.
Many people wish to stay in their homes during the end of life period. This is often possible with the support of loved ones, caregivers, and a hospice program. You may need to make changes in your home to make life easier and keep you safe . Hospice units in hospitals and other nursing facilities are also an option.
Advance care directives are documents that state the type of care you would like to have if you are unable to speak for yourself.
Cardiac cachexia; End-of-life-heart failure
Fatigue and breathlessness are common problems at the end of life. These symptoms can be distressing.
You may feel short of breath and have trouble breathing. Other symptoms may include tightness in the chest, feeling as if you are not getting enough air, or even feeling like you're being smothered.
Family or caregivers can help by:
Using oxygen will help you combat shortness of breath and keep a person with end-stage heart failure comfortable. Safety measures (such as not smoking) are very important when using oxygen at home.
Morphine can also help shortness of breath. It is available as a pill, liquid, or tablet that dissolves under the tongue. Your doctor will tell you how to take morphine.
Symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, and nausea can make it hard for people with heart failure to take in enough calories and nutrients. Wasting of muscles and weight loss are part of the natural disease process.
It can help to eat several small meals. Choosing foods that are appealing and easy to digest can make it easier to eat.
Caregivers should not try to force a heart failure patient to eat. This does not help the person live longer and may be uncomfortable.
Talk to your doctor or nurse about things you can do to help manage nausea or vomiting and constipation .
Anxiety, fear, and sadness are common among people with end-stage heart failure.
Pain is a common problem in the end stages of many diseases, including heart failure. Morphine and other pain medicines can help. Common over-the-counter pain medicines, such as ibuprofen, are often not safe for people with heart failure.
Some people may have problems with bladder control or bowel function . Talk with your doctor before using any medicines, laxatives, or suppositories for these symptoms.

Cafe Du Monde Coffee and Chicory
A Strong, Flavorful, Versatile Coffee!
I was first introduced to this coffee when I was looking at recipes so I could make Vietnamese iced coffee at home. Many recipes called for this specific brand of coffee because of the chicory. (As a side note, yes, for you purists, this coffee is popular generally in American-Vietnamese restaurants, not necessarily in Vietnam or other countries where this drink is popular-but I was craving the same taste as what is served in my local restaurant.)
With a metal drip filter and some sweetened condensed milk I had the cool Vietnamese treat I was craving. But since I was not going to go through the hassle of making it that way everyday, especially on the way out the door, the can sat in my cupboard until one day I was out of my usual coffee and I used this coffee in my regular coffeemaker.
From that point forward I was in love. I also make this coffee in my Aeropress for a stronger cup. No matter how you prepare this coffee, it is delicious.
This coffee is strong and bold! If you are not a coffee connoisseur, and you are fine with your daily cup of Foldgers, then this coffee is not for you. If you love any sort of coffee or espresso, and you have the menu at your local coffee shop memorized, this is the coffee for you.
February 4, 2013
Bold Flavor
I blend Cafe Du Monde with other coffee varieties on hand to create new tastes, which also works really well to jazz up bland coffee beans that might otherwise get tossed out.

Does anybody has succesfully configured the webserver to use PHP ?
My Web Server is working fine, but without PHP :-(
Does anybody has succesfully configured the webserver to use PHP ?
My Web Server is working fine, but without PHP :-(
Actually, a bright summer intern ported as an experiment PHP to S60. It works pretty ok under Raccoon, but runs easily out of memory. Don't hold your breath, though, as there are no decisions if, when and in what form it will be made available.Originally Posted by neus
Meanwhile, have a look at mod_python and PSP (Python Server Pages). Translating PHP code to PSP is a fairly straightforward process. As someone expressed it elsewhere on this forum, it's like translating german to french.
Even PSP and PHP are very similar, I think Raccoon with PHP support its a winning combination. PHP is more extended than PSP.
If I could debug my web programs with a bluetooth keyboard and a TV connection, I would throw my laptop away.
Please consider again to publish that memory hungry PHP port, and take a look at the world reaction.
If you decide also about porting MySQL, I promise to send you a box of red wine bottles for all the team.

I can now reveal that we at the CCNC conference in Las Vegas in January, 2008 will demonstrate and release what we call the PAMP stack.
PAMP stands for Personal Apache, MySQL, PHP, so yes, the full LAMP stack will be made available for S60 smart phones. In addition, there will be PHP extension modules that provide access to the core functionality of the phone. And on top of PAMP you can basically install any LAMP based content management system. For instance, Drupal can be installed off the shelf.
Yes, a fair amount of memory is needed and it's still pretty experimental stuff, but it runs quite nicely on E90.
So, if you are in the neighbourhood, join us in Las Vegas
Ok. Send me a private with the address to send you the wine.
(but promise to not programm and drink at the same time )

What about early adopters. Can I get this package from some secret place and test it, please.
I have been wondering the solution for the same problem ans I would really appreciate if someone could share a possible solution for this problem. Any suggestions would help and thanks in advance.
To neus: Hi.. i thought that I was the only one experiencing the same problem.. I am too have a server but when i tried to apply PHP it does not work anymore.. I think it's an error that lots of people have been encountering.. How I wish that we could find the right solution. Until next time, bye.
All I know about PHP is that it only works for Linux and it cost more that its competitor ASP. Have you tried using ASP on your computer? But if you are after the speed and its efficiency you must go for the PHP.
Dearest Neus: I have not yet encountered the problem that you have.. But I will try to search for answer while I'm doing my other research about the same concern.. I will just post here if ever I have news for you.
Have you tried restarting your PC when you installed your PHP? .. Because from what I know is that PHP will not work until you restart your PC but that is after you have finished installing it. Another suggestion is that you use another application for your PC.
@edgars, I don't think that this is what the issue is all about.. Yes, power cycling can help, but not in this kind of situation..
Hey I also have the same problem like you have.. has anyone tried to help you?.. I am always looking for answers and possible solution on the net but still got none. I hope that some one will help me.

Vanessa Bonnard Status: See all reviews Member since 2013 Organization: PharmaDiagnostics Read more » | 4.0 RATING:
"The absorbance plate reader is easy to use and the analysis software linked to it is user friendly, but still can be further improved to fasten the data analysis. The after sales service is also very good. If we have any problem with the analysis software or the reader itself we can easily get in contact with an engineer from BMG and discuss issues. Concerning the value for money, this absorbance plate reader really performs well. To give you an idea: this absorbance plate-reader is really good for binding assay development on microplate based assays. It has very good accuracy measurements, reproducibility and resolution properties. The reading of a 384-well plate is really fast (17min for one entire 384 well plate). I really advise this plate-reader for screening." |
The SPECTROstar Omega microplate reader is a part of the BMG LABTECH's family of readers that contain a CCD-based spectrometer for ultra-fast, full spectrum absorbance measurements.
In less than 1 second per well, this spectrometer is able to capture an entire UV/Vis absorbance spectrum (220 to 1000 nm) at a resolution of 1 nm. This unique feature allows for absorbance assays to be performed on the SPECTROstar Omega that cannot be performed with other microplate reader technology.
Combined with precise temperature control (up to 65°C), on-board reagent injection, multi-mode shaking capabilities, high reproducibility and a wide dynamic range, the SPECTROstar Omega provides users with unmatched flexibility and sensitivity to perform any absorbance based assay needed.
For cell-based assays, BMG LABTECH's Atmospheric Control Unit can be added to the SPECTROstar Omega. This optional microprocessor controlled ACU allows users to fully regulate CO2 (0 - 20%) and O2 (1 - 19%) independently within the microplate reader chamber. The ACU provides users with a walk away solution for all cell based assays.
For low volume sample measurements in assays like DNA, RNA, or protein concentration determination, the SPECTROstar Omega can use BMG LABTECH's LVis Plate. This LVis plate has sixteen microdrop wells that can hold two microliters of sample. By using the LVis plate, researchers will save on precious samples like DNA or RNA.
Due to the modular concept of the Omega series of microplate reader series, the SPECTROstar Omega is entirely upgradeable to a multi-mode microplate reader. Whenever the need for fluorescence, luminescence, or time-resolved fluorescence based experiments arises, the SPECTROstar Omega is easily upgraded to a FLUOstar Omega or even the POLARstar Omega with Simultaneous Dual Emission for fluorescence polarization assays.

What about a room for Chastity Support?
From another post, it gave me the idea that CM needs a Chastity "support" forum.
This is a serious issue for single Catholics, for those who are trying to live purely, and feel no support from the secular world.
It could be a tool for education, for those who have not yet been a victor in the struggle, and where people could ask for help and answers and prayers.
While I could see it possibly needing some rules about how to word posts, and parameters for the tone of such conversations, I think some people would find it very helpful and edifying.
Maybe if there could be a way to post anonymously in such a room as well.
Just something to think about.

"Keith is a veteran leader who played a key role with our club's success this past season," said club president John Davidson in a release. "He and his wife Chantal are first class people and have been tremendous to the St. Louis Blues organization and the St. Louis community."
The veteran had 25 goals and 24 assists over his 79 games for the Blues last season. He reached the 20-goal mark for the 15th time in his career.
Over Tkachuk's 1,134 career regular season games in the NHL he has scored 525 goals with 508 assists and 2,163 penalty minutes.

Recently, I was listening to CNN where they were discussing the states where convicted felons are not allowed to vote and whether that was right.
Is voting a right or a privilege? But there's a third word that used to be applied, though one seldom hears it anymore.
When I was a kid voting wasn't a right or a privilege. It was a duty of every citizen in the democracy to participate in the electoral process.
As to felons. They are in prison to work off their debt to society.
Or not?
When they come out, are they citizens again or are they less than citizens?
Your thoughts?
Tags: citizenship, voting
If you live in a country that does not have a transparent electoral system then you would probably look to countries that do and think that it is a privilege to have the right to vote. Usually that privilege has not been won easily. Someone has fought and died in order that we have such rights.
Would it be an idea to give prisoners the right to vote if they are due for release within the term of the new government? That way it would be seen as an earned privilege and remove any alienation that might otherwise be created without the right to vote. If you are a lifer then maybe not as you have forgone the same rights as everyone else in that society.
One thing that bugs me – people who complain about politicians but it turnst out they never bothered to vote! So if we live in societies that allow us to vote we should do so.
I think some people find little to choose between the Democrat and Republican rivals and thus don't vote, though they could vote for a minority candidate. Futile, of course, but it makes a statement.
Not much of one, when you consider the media ignores Third Party candidates outright (How often has Ron Paul been mentioned since the election season came into its full swing?). They might run the numbers the first week (two or three days to be realistic), but after that? Nothing.
It's all a crock of shit anyway. Your vote means, nothing; not because you don't have a say in which of the two wins, but rather because they're identical in everything but the face they wear in public.
Ron Paul will be recognized when he becomes competitive. The plain fact is that, rightly or wrongly, he doesn't appeal to most people and thus doesn't stand a chance. His ideas don't appeal to most people and his holier than thou personality doesn't help much. Speaking for myself, whenever I hear him talk it reminds me of my high school principal complaining about kids not putting their lunch trays away.
As for the Dems and GOP being the same below the surface, then why has it been so hard for Obama to get anything done? If they were alike, they'd be spewing out legislation like crazy. They're not.
It's more profitable to game the system while everyone's focusing on Red V. Blue. It's more profitable to see that nothing major gets done, and keep feeding the public on the idea that its the fault of "The Other Party".
I think it would be entertaining to rig a blind voting system for an election. Debates and platforms will be anonymous, and text only (or available as audio from a paid, non-partisan reader). Voters cast their votes on the platform they like best without know for which candidate or party they are voting.
Obviously never going to happen.
Taking the name off the ballot would help a lot. Anyone studying elections in the United States soon discovers the irrational advantage of having a surname that's Irish/Scottish, Italian, or Anglo-Saxon.
I have mixed feelings on democracy in general, but since the framework of this thread rests inside of a democratic system, I'll try my best to respect that.
Voting as a duty? I'm not opposed to it in principle; however, I feel one of the major issues with the democracy I live in is that voters are far too apathetic about getting informed. Throw in the people who, absent legal obligation or strong social pressure, would not vote at all, and I feel like that's just exacerbating the issue. I think every person who wants to remain ignorant of political affairs does us more of a favour in not voting.
Right vs. privilege? I would call it a right over a privilege. In my view, my right to vote is something that someone needs to form an argument to deny. A privilege to vote is something someone needs to form an argument to grant. Ideally, people cast votes to form government, so from my perspective, government can seek to deny someone the right to vote on behalf of the people, but it can't grant people the privilege of voting as if it is doing the people a favour.
In the make-believe world in my brain, I would like to see some obligations attached to voting. Everyone would have the right to apply and qualify to vote, but you would have to meet some basic obligations first. For example, you would have to participate in community forums with some consistency in order to qualify to vote. The forums would be as randomized as possible so that the local Catholic Church or Freethinkers group couldn't just get together and circle jerk ideas, or groups can't easily band together and lobby the forums.
But that idea just isn't practical. Too much money, too many complications regarding equal access, and there is room for corruption.
With regard to prisoners, I don't care if they vote or not. I guess I just don't think it makes that much of a difference. I don't think they are there to repay a debt to society, nor should they be. How am I repaid by criminals living off my tax dollar? Forcing them to work isn't much better because prisons can unfairly undercut the businesses of upstanding citizens who would provide the same services. I see the incarceration as an effort to shove criminals out of public view for awhile so that the rest of us can sleep better at night.
More definitively, anyone who has been completely released from the penal system should have the same right to vote as anyone else. While there are some reasonable restrictions on ex-cons, if you don't let people reintegrate into society as normal citizens, you're making it more difficult for them to live as honest, upstanding people. If a human being is so dangerous that they can't even vote safely, leave them locked up. Failing that, if they've served their time then let it go at that.
Also, I think that youth between the ages of fourteen to eighteen should be granted a fractional vote in elections. Perhaps a quarter vote.
Which is very reminiscent of blacks once being counted as 1/4 of a person. I'm actually a Youth Rights advocate. There has been, for over a decade now, a push by the YR movement to lower the voting age to 16. It's our biggest and strongest issue (and also the one most likely to come to pass in the near future). You should look into the issue more if you're interested. I won't spam a link here, but you can Google the "National Youth Rights Association" if you want.
Which is very reminiscent of blacks once being counted as 1/4 of a person.
Not really. I don't have an issue with the age of majority being lowered on a number of fronts though.
A fourteen year old isn't considered competent to drive a car. Vote? Even fractionally? No. At least grownups understand rudimentary economics of running a home, paying rent and utilities. I know when I was a teen I was very "pie in the sky." Sorry, I don't see the upside.

Powerful, elegant and charismatic, the Fendi man enters the stage. His magnetic presence instantly catches everyone's eye. He is electrifying, compelling. The star? He's a natural performer. A seductive charmer. A dandy of modern times with his own inimitable style. He reflects Fendi's brand of manliness to perfection. He is the ideal embodiment of the iconic Fendi fragrance. His name: Mark Ronson, musician, multi-talented & DJ producer.
The legendary Fendi Forever square buckle, in grey surlyn. The yellow fragrance bursts out like an Italian sunrise. Purity of shape, strength of material and architectural elegance, all the Fendi codes come together. The contrast of materials, glass and surlyn, enhanced by Fendi's iconic colours, yellow and grey. Purity of shape, architectural elegance for a powerful yet timeless design.
Attraction is inevitable from the very first notes with Tangerine from Sicily, Bergamot from Calabria and Basil. The heart beats faster, with Rose Hips and Cardamom, it beats to the rhythm of vibrant Geranium before melting into the powerful woody tonalities of Cedar from Texas. Then come the base notes, a light Leather Accord revealed by the power of the Tonka Bean and drop dead chic Patchouli.

Charcuterie Sampler
Formaggio Kitchen Exclusive
Country of Origin: United States
Region: Massachusetts
City / Village: Cambridge
Julie, our in-house charcutière transforms various meats into delectable pâtés, sausages, terrines and cured meats. It was hard to choose, but she put together a selection of some of her favorites.
Included in the mix: thick slices of our house smoked bacon. We think this is just perfect for breakfast or on a BLT. Also in the sampler - a generous slice of our award-winning rabbit pâté, decadent pork rillettes packed in a reusable Weck jar and two links of rich, and delicately spiced boudin blanc.
All of this comes with two of Julie's favorite charcuterie accompaniments: cornichons and whole grain mustard! All of the charcuterie in this sampler is made with humanely-raised pork (and rabbit) sourced from small, local farms.

Western Mountaineering Bison GWS
Incredible quality in materials and craftsmanship. Packs down very small and is very lightweight (under 5 lbs) for its temp rating of -40F. I have no doubt it will live up to its reputation when put to the test. ***FEB. 3, 2015 UPDATE after field testing the Western Mountaineering Bison GWS****** So last night the temps got down to 23F here in Atlanta, so I set up my tent in the back yard and slept in the WM Bison GWS. WOW!!! AWESOME BAG!!!! I have added a few photos to show the loft of the bag… Full review
The North Face Dark Star -40
Warm. This is a warm bag. It was used on a 5-day trip to Ontario in temps that hovered in the upper negative teens F. When I did not roll off my pads, the bag kept me extremely warm. When not on the pads, it still kept me comfortably warm, but with a slight chill. Not at all uncomfortable. This bag is also quick to dry in the morning. These are the only positives in my opinion. The zipper is unbelievably difficult to pull closed the last 6 remaining inches. The draft tube comes loose easily… Full review
ALPS Mountaineering Echo Lake -20
A very warm and comfortable sleeping bag. While the Echo Lake -20 does the job, there are some things that could have been done better. I bought the ALPS Mountaineering Echo Lake -20 sleeping bag in October for dead-of-winter camping. Unfortunately we've had a very mild winter so far, and it wasn't until this past week that we've seen subzero temps. There's no sense in testing equipment if you're not going to approach or push the envelope, right? This past Monday and Wednesday nights were forecast… Full review
U.S. Armed Forces Modular Sleep System MSS
Personally test, constantly used, tough as nails! I have personally used this sleep system more than a hundred time, both while I was in service and now as a civilian. It was my first purchase (of military gear) the week I had to turn in my Army issued MSS, right before retiring. It's warm, tough/durable, and with the bivy bag it's water tight. Now, a lot of people complain about its weight (being around 10-12 lbs all together), but I am 6' 4" and 255 lbs, and I never even noticed when it was in… Full review
The North Face Inferno -40F/-40C
Excellent choice for winter camping, very packable for its size and true to its warmth. Have used it in a lean-to with no tent in miserable conditions and was quite comfortable. I have not slept out in -40° temperatures yet, but it was excellent at -20°. Closed up enough around the face to not freeze, actually ended up taking off my hat halfway through the night! A bit long for me, I'm 5 foot six, but I put extra clothes at the bottom. Easy to get in and out unless you are wearing lots of layers,… Full review
Woods Canada Mount Blanc Supreme
I have owned this bag since 1980 when I purchased it new here in London, Ontario, for $200 at that time. This is a seriously warm and lightweight bag for its temperature rating as compared to my old eiderdown 3 Star bag which weighs in excess of 21 pounds. The Mount Blanc Supreme was the top of the line semi-mummy bag with 3 pounds of goose down fill and a nylon outer shell. Baffled construction and nice light green outer with yellow inner lining. It weighs in at about 4.75 pounds. Although a little… Full review
ALPS Mountaineering Desert Pine -20
A warm, but heavy, bag at an amazing price. Warmth (and conditions): This bag is rated for -20 and I've used it twice, once in the teens and once in the twenties, both times under the stars on my porch. I slept on a 2" self-inflatable air-mat and wore Polartec Powerdry expedition-weight base layer top and bottom, a Polartec Thermal Pro fleece jacket, a merino wool gaiter, a knit acrylic hat, thin acrylic gloves, and heavy wool socks. I didn't notice any drafts either time. The first time, the temperature… Full review
The North Face Inferno -40F/-40C
This is a sleeping bag equipped for extreme cold and it is made to keep you warm and comfortable when other products don't. The North Face Inferno is an excellent sleeping bag. It fits any needs for extreme cold nights. With it being waterproof the morning dew doesn't bother you either. I use my Inferno bag every time I go out in cold weather. I fully recommend the sleeping bag to anyone who would sleep in that weather. Full review
Stephenson's Warmlite Warmlite Triple Bag
We go backpacking for three week stretches every summer. I remember when my parents bought their custom made zip together bags, and slipping in the bag from time to time WAS PURE BLISS. I have now inherited their 30-year-old bags and me and my wife ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM. Vapor barrier technology was something new in the '70s and I never liked the clammy feeling of VPB shirts, but in the sleeping bag it is great. This is the best sleeping bag EVER built. I have had Marmot, Sierra Designs and (when… Full review

parts house pavilion, milwaukee
Johnsen Schmaling Architects
Made from cell-cast acrylic, the translucent 4-foot-by-8-foot wall panels on this rooftop dining pavilion work with a retractable canvas roof to provide a number of flexible environments.
johnsen schmaling architects, milwaukee
Our judges called this project a "beacon for the neighbors." Located above a 1920s warehouse-turned-condominium, the blacktop roof went unused until the unit owners considered an outdoor dining room—"a space to entertain and to hold fund-raising events," says Sebastian Schmaling, AIA. They also wanted a space that was open to the elements but flexible enough for privacy. They left the details up to Schmaling and his partner, Brian Johnsen, AIA.
The architects partially covered the 1,500-square-foot space with a steel frame that supports eight panels, which can be configured for a variety of weather conditions and social situations. According to Schmaling, the panels' retractable canvas top adjusts for total enclosure, limited views, or complete openness for alfresco entertaining. A lighting system transforms the panels into a luminous nighttime landmark. Said one judge: "It's a celebration of color and the urban environment."

1 Avoid!paulus46 | 28/12/2010 | See all paulus46's reviews (3)The worst Top Gear programme I have ever seen. No wit or laughs here, folks. A cynical Christmas cash-in - appalling! They should hang their heads in shame.
5 Good entertainmentPlayBargain | 24/02/2011 | See all PlayBargain's reviews (21)I thought this was a good title, not quite as good as the polar special but great entertainment none the less!
2 not funnyjonney88 | 30/11/2010 | See all jonney88's reviews (1)Id wouldn buy it it not got any of the usual top gear humour in it wait till it comes on tv
1 Appalling is rightPatG123 | 02/12/2013 | See all PatG123's reviews (1)I have to agree with paulus here - this is the worst Top Gear programme ever. There seems to be no effort made to make the presentation even halfway decent, and it's certainly not humourous or entertaining. A well below par effort - very disappointing - avoid.
