What is interesting about this website, is that the visionary or "mystic'" <(as they are sometimes referred to as) , is under the spiritual direction of Monsignor Esseff , who was also the spiritual director for Mother Theresa., and gave many teachings to her order.
Monsignor Esseff , himself was at one time under the spiritual direction of Padre Pio, later canonized St. Pio. (it was considered a great honor , and blessing to be under the spiritual direction of Padre Pio)
Here is an excerpt from the introduction page of this website created to make these messages public, by Monsignor John Esseff.
Let me introduce myself; I am Monsignor John Esseff, a diocesan priest of Scranton, Pa., ordained in 1953. In 1959, Padre Pio became my spiritual director. For many years, I was the spiritual director for Mother Teresa of Calcutta. As a favor to her, I traveled all over the world, giving retreats, to her sisters. Above all, I am privileged to be spiritual director for hundreds of souls, at every stage of the spiritual life. Some are beginners, others are advanced and some are mystics.
For many years, I have been director for a special soul. Five years ago, Jesus and Mary began to speak to this soul through the gift of locutions (as described by John of the Cross). These locutions now total over 800. I have discerned the validity of these locutions. Until now, these locutions were personal teachings given for the small community that gathered in prayer. Beginning on December 10, 2010, a new phase began, namely, some locutions were to be told to the whole world.
The beginning locutions are very special; focusing on the Fatima Vision (released by the Vatican (June 2000).
Locutions are the hearing of an inner voice , but you do not see any vision. Many of these are from a divine nature, though some can be of a demonic nature as well.
One of the first messages was the following
Let the Word go Forth
Dec 10th, 2010
I will soon begin to speak to you for the whole world. You will receive these words as you have received all the other words. You will write the words down and record the proper dates. You will take these words to Monsignor Esseff, for his discernment. If his heart discerns that these messages should be released to the whole world they will go forth. He will correctly say that these are being given to one of his directees. The time is short and that is why I have moved you so quickly.
Here is the link to the website, and I will add messages to the thread as I read through them, and will choose certain ones from the past that I feel I should put out there, as well as new ones that are being received. These are a plea to look at the messages of Fatima , (which were concerning some of the situations that were to come), and again Our Heavenly Mother is pleading for prayer, and repentance, while we still have time. The love she has for her children is so underestimated, and she wants each and every soul on this earth to know they have a spiritual mother to go to when feeling troubled, confused, and lost. She so desperately wants to help ALL of us find the way to the salvation and peace of Jesus.
Though this isn't an apparition, I choose to put it on here as an example to some of the members of how much the Virgin Mary is calling out to the world , and what she is warning us about.

What our customers are saying...
My purchases were a gift and the recipient was happy with the items. The engraving was done well and everything was done promptly. So, except for the slightly high prices, I was overall quite satisfied.
Elliot, OR
Way better than I expected! I got a lighter engraved for my boyfriend and the lettering was perfect, both sides, and free! :) Also, I was worried that '<3' was going to be misinterpreted and it came with an adorable heart. I ordered it close to Christmas and got it well before. These guys are great and I highly recommend them :)
Danielle, NY
I have nothing but praise for Executive Gift Shoppe. I have never been so pleased with any online purchase.I want to commend the wonderful people who helped me over the phone with my concerns as well as the many times I was answered back through email very promptly. They were always very kind, helpful & patient. And, I am thrilled with the merchandise I ordered. It not only came in record time, but,they did an absolutely wonderful job. It is a Valentine's Day gift. I cannot wait for him to open it. I know he will love it as much as I do. I give Executive Gift Shoppe a very high recommendation. In service, their prices, quality and their wide selection of merchandise.
Linda, LA
Many thanks, a very satisfied customer.

Sandra, FL
I ordered three business card holders. They were so awesome that when I got the original three, my husband asked me to order another one for him and one for his boss. They were all awesome and every recipient of this gift loved it. I will definitely order from Executive Gift Shoppe again. I am 100% pleased with my purchase.

Excellent product, quickly delivered, "no hassle" purchase procedure. I get the feeling, even though this is my first purchase with Executive, that they are a class act.

Kathy, OH
I found ordering from the company very easy and will order again in the future. Maybe for gifts for family and friends.
Bobby, TX
We ordered 5 Zippo personalized lighters. We had originally found these lighters on a different site for $10 more per lighter. The site provided great communication, the products shipped extrememly quickly and they were perfect!! We will definitely use this site for all future orders.
Deanne, PA
I have purchased two items from this merchant and had no problems at all. Even with engraving, the shipping was fast and communication good. Would buy from again.
Mindi, GA
Everything was exactly as advertised. I'd shop again with them anytime.
Stephen, MD
Incredible customer service. Highly recommend!
Michael, CT
I can't say much about their customer service, mainly because everything went so smoothly that I didn't need to contact their CS! The only "negative" thing I can think of was that the lighter I purchased for my mother had her name engraved in the wrong font (although she loved it anyway so it's no big deal.) Overall I am pleased with my order from Executive Gift Shoppe.
Alex, Ottawa, CA
Karen, TX
This is the third gift that I have purchased from Executive Gifts. I have been more than pleased. When I have questions, I have called and someone has always called me back. I can't say enough about them. If I had a company that needed ton buy gifts for clients, this is the company that I would use.
Karen, TX
Very professional service. They were responsive and pleasant to work with. The order shipped quickly and was exactly what we wanted. Will definitely use them again.
Vanessa, NY
Jean, NJ
Pete is Awsome. He trusted Me and sent Replacement lighter, PRIOR to My Return, as lighter was defective. Pete, also, comforted Me, as I wasn't able to Return his as soon as I had promised due to the Flu. BEST Internet purchase experience, Ever!
Jean, NJ
I recently made a purchase with your company and was very pleased with the quality of the product. I was also impressed at how quickly it arrived!
Rebecca, ME
Thank you!
Rebecca, ME
Perfection in EVERY respect!
William, NY
I had a question about a product and they got back to me right away. The product was a gift so I'm not sure about the quality but it looked great when it got here. I appreciate that they use UPS for shipping, they have always been reliable. I would recommend this company.
Theresa, MA
The site is very easy to navigate and it's laid out well. Viewing products is easy, placing my order was a snap and I received my flask when expected. Also, the products are top quality.
David M., Florida
Shipping was super
Steven, CT
fast and the presentation of the product looks immaculate in its case. I haven't used the flasks yet (the wedding isn't for a few months and they're groomsmen gifts), so I can't say anything for how they function or wear. But if you're looking to wow them with looks, I found these flasks to be worth the money.
Steven, CT
Ordered these beer koozies for our groomsmen attendant gifts. I have never ordered anything online before, but I received these 4 days after ordering them (I live in Canada) and they were great! We ordered the black leatherone with personalized engraving
Wanda, CA
the guys are going to love them.
Wanda, CA
I received a phone call from my friend last night and he was thrilled with his birthday gift. He said it was very nice and tasteful. Even classy. You guys at the executive shoppe have your act together. Easiest purchase online I ever made. Thanks again. karl.
Karl, PA
Exceptional personalized products at very reasonable prices, and lightning fast delivery! I'll be back to shop.
Ricardo, MN
I was very pleased when i got my order .It was fast and easy and they had excatly the money clip i was looking for and it was delivered on time. Best part was that it was a gift and the person loved it! I will be using the site again!
Lindsey, AR
This company is one of the best I have ever purchased from,,,hands down, happy with every aspect of this company!!!!!!!!
David L., WI
I purchased an engraved zippo lighter with a black jack on the front. The young man I bought it for was over the top with it.
Bren, MO
Excellent quality lighter. Very Pleased. The recipient of this gift really loved it.
James, CA
Very good merchant, I'm very pleased of my purchase. The delivery was fast and the package arrived sooner that expected. The engraving service is very good.
Florent, France
I recommend!
Florent, France
The brown and orange wallet I purchased was delivered quickly and in great condition. I highly recommend Executiveengravables because of the quality products their website displays and the quality that the products themselves display once delivered. They items are also priced competitively, however their products are also stylish and modern which you can not say about other sellers products.
Nicholas, FL
Great experience, and I would do business with merchant again, and recomment their services.
Gaddiel, DC
This seller has excellent customer service. I ordered a business card holder that I wanted engraved with my son's initials. I didn't know that the initial for the last name goes in the middle. The seller emailed me just to be sure that I was aware, instead of just engraving it and hoping that the way I placed the initials was correct. Was also shipped fast. Highly recommended.
Calvin, MA
I believe the man who helped us with our business card holder was Pete. He was very helpful. Thank you.
Ron, CA
Excellent quality, decent prices, and quick delivery. Would definitely order from this company again.
Michael, IL
Stephen, MD

Christopher, CA
Great business. Fast email communication and friendly service. I searched and searched for the right business card case and the had it.
John, OK
I purchased a leather business card holder with engraving. I was delighted when I received it as it was definitely a worthwhile item. The case itself is sturdy, holds an ample supply of business cards, and the leather looks great. The free engraving added the finishing touch to this beautiful case. Highly recommend this item and this company.
Linda, NY
As always great a product.. Thank you again.
Arkadiusz, CT
From beginning to end, my online shopping experience with executiveengravables exceeded my expectations. After placing my order which included an engraving request, a confirmation email was immediately sent to my email address and the package arrived quickly and exact to my specifications. What more could anyone want. Thanks so much for making gift
Margaret, TX
giving pleasant and affordable.
Margaret, TX
Placed order for engraveable business card holders. Ran into a couple of issues with a couple of them being faulty. Called the 800 number and this issue was quickly resolved. I would recommend this business to any buyer!
Matthew, IN
Very fast delivery. I was anxiously waiting to receive because it is a Christmas present for a cousin who will be graduating from college soon. It is really nice. My only wish is that I could be there to see his face when he opens it! With their great prices, I was able to purchase a gift card for him, in addition to this great card case (I'm putting the gift card in the case!).
Mindy, IN
This was an excellent service!!!! I ordered it and received it very quickly!!! Awesome seller!!!! The Engraving was perfect!!!
Rob, MI
S. Sujitmaetee
I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to you. I have been in the customer service field for many years myself and I am of the opinion that customer service has certainly become second placed. I was very pleased when I interacted with you. You were very informative and provided me with a host of information that in turn aided me to make my decision. You showed interest and attention to what I needed. Everything I ordered looks great and most of all it was a pleasure working with you. My experience was great and I would highly recommend your company to everyone that I know. Thank you again for the great service and a great product.
S. Sujitmaetee
I just wanted to thank you all for your kindness and efficiency. The two lighters arrived last Wednesday, October 10, just in time for husband's birthday on Thursday and well in time for a friend's birthday on the Sunday. Both gentlemen were really happy with their presents and I was especially pleased with just the subtle engraving rather than print on top. Great stuff!
Hays, Kansas
I found myself in a bind when a local company ordered the wrong items from me. I decided to try my luck with another source when I came across Executive Gift Shoppe. The prices were unbelievable. I contacted a rep who informed me that they could take my order, do the engraving and have the items shipped to me in time for my event! I just received the order today and they are absolutely perfect!! And the best part, even with express shipping, it ended up costing me LESS than if I had gone with my local option. I would definately recommend them to anyone looking for quality products and service!!!

W. Weitzman
Transaction was smooth. communication was good. price was great.
A. Lee
Thank you very much for all of your help. The gifts came on time and we can not wait to present them to our wedding party!
G. Pedroza
My shopping experience with Executive Gift Shoppe was very positive. My order was made very close to Christmas time and it was very questionable whether I would receive my order paying regular shipping, but fortunately, I did receive my order before Christmas. If my order hadnt been shipped promptly, I would not have received it so quickly and my husband and my father would not have been enable to enjoy their presents on Christmas Day. Thank you very much Executive Gift Shoppe for making my Christmas Day special!
S. Edwards
The order was delivered as committed, on time, and with engraving done correctly. Im a highly satisfied customer and will use Executive Gift Shoppe again

I took a huge chance buying a pocket watch on the internet, especially when it was a last minute decision on a birthday present for my husband.... but I was very, very happy when I received it
P Trela
the quality of the watch, the box, everything was perfect. Oh, yes, and I think my husband really liked it too ! I would definitely order from Executive Gift Shoppe again !

I purchased a brass zippo pipe lighter to give to my grandfather for christmas. I am already big fan of Zippo, but I could not have been happier with the product when it arrived.

N. Desai
I ordered an engraved money clip on Dec 14th from Executiveengravables. I asked that they not fill the order unless shipment could be received by Christmas. I received an email from Executive Gift Shoppe that the article was shipped and to expect arrival on Dec. 20th. The money clip arrived on Dec. 20th and was of top quality. The recipient of the money clip was very pleased with his gift.

Dental x-rays are a type of image of the teeth and mouth. X-rays are a form of high energy electromagnetic radiation. X-rays can penetrate the body to form an image on film.
Structures that are dense (such as silver fillings or metal restoration) will block most of the light energy from the x-ray. They will appear white on developed film. Structures containing air will be black on film, and teeth, tissue, and fluid will appear as shades of gray.
X-ray - teeth; Radiograph - dental; Bitewings; Periapical film; Panoramic film
The test is performed in the dentist's office. There are many types of dental x-rays. Some are:
The bitewing shows the crown portions of the top and bottom teeth together when the patient bites on a paper tab.
The periapical shows one or two complete teeth from crown to root.
A palatal or occlusal x-ray captures all the upper and lower teeth in one shot while the film rests on the biting surface of the teeth.
A panoramic x-ray requires a special machine that rotates around the head. The x-ray captures the entire jaws and teeth in one shot. It is used to plan treatment for dental implants, check for impacted wisdom teeth, and detect jaw problems. A panoramic x-ray is not the best method for detecting cavities, unless the decay is very advanced and deep.
In addition, many dentists are taking x-rays using digital technology. The image runs through a computer. The amount of radiation given off during the procedure is less than traditional methods. Other types of dental x-rays can create a 3-D picture of the jaw. Cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) may be used prior to dental surgery, especially when multiple implants are being placed.
There is no special preparation. Lead apron may be placed to cover the body. Tell the dentist if you might be pregnant.
The x-ray itself causes no discomfort. Biting on the piece of film makes some people gag. Slow, deep breathing through the nose usually relieves this feeling.
Dental x-rays help diagnose disease and injury of the teeth and gums.
The x-rays show a normal number, structure, and position of the teeth and jaw bones. There are no cavities or other problems.
Dental x-rays may be used to identify the following:
There is very low radiation exposure. However, no one should receive more radiation than necessary. A lead apron can be used to cover the body and reduce radiation exposure. Pregnant women should not have x-rays taken unless absolutely necessary.
Dental x-rays can reveal dental cavities (tooth decay) before they are visible, even to the dentist. Many dentists will take yearly bitewings for the early development of cavities.

Off-white Shower Curtains & Liners
Give your bathroom a stylish new look with the latest bath curtains from Kmart
Whether you just moved into a new apartment or you want to update the look of your old bathroom, a new bath curtain can breathe fresh life into your room. Kmart has the latest styles in fabric and vinyl curtains, as well as shower curtain liners to keep them protected.
Bathrooms can be an extension of your home's style or they can stand alone with their own unique looks. Match your bedroom's decor, or choose the experience of entering a relaxing spa. You can even let your kids step into a different world with their favorite animated characters. Browse an extensive variety of shower curtains in fabric or vinyl to create a look you'll love. Coordinate your curtain with towels and a bath rug to give your bathroom a cohesive feel.
Once you choose your bath curtain, keep it protected with a shower curtain liner. Liners provide a barrier between the water and your shower curtain to help keep it dry and prevent water damage. The liner also helps to protect your floor from water damage, as well. Many liners have magnetic weights to keep them inside of your tub so you don't have to worry about accidentally knocking the liner out of place when you're putting your shampoo back on your shower caddy. Liners are a smart choice to prolong the life of your bath curtain.

An Amazing Spot for a Company Retreat
My company retreat was at Tyner Pond Farm, and we had a blast. It was an easy drive from Indianapolis, and the area was beautiful! Chandra and Kara were such a great help through the planning process as well.
The house was beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed. We walked around the farm to see chicks, piglets and a few farm cats. When we were still at the farmhouse we were brainstorming occasions to come back for. I think you will have some repeat customers with our crowd!
Thank you Tyner Pond Farm!

Apple's latest tiny tablet is tough to repair, says iFixit, and any fixes to the screen could result in a non-functioning Touch ID.
A blog site's report on the amount of memory in the next iPhone turns out to be based on a misreading of a technical diagram, but the question of how much RAM the iPhone 6 needs is an interesting one.
Gadget repair expert iFixit takes a deeper look into the guts of Amazon's first smartphone and finds several new details.
Solid-state drive storage on the cheap. Micron's new SSD makes 256GB downright affordable.
Think Google's futuristic, $1,500 Glass wearable headset costs too much? This teardown won't change your mind.
Micron Technology is a very big chipmaker that's closer to Apple than it ever has been.
The folks at iFixit have gone inside the new Amazon Fire TV and find it "hard to disassemble" and, really, just "another board-in-a-box."
The two companies have accused SK Hynix of illegally obtaining data relating to NAND flash memory technology.

Reliable Equipment seeks building use change
Sunday, March 17, 2013
Dana Lynch of Civilworks, Inc. of Dover, outlined the plan Mark Cooper, who owns Reliable Equipment, LLC, of Manchester, is hoping will be suitable for an ancillary part of his business. It would mean a change in use of the building, from industrial to commercial. Light construction equipment now answering local needs from Cooper's headquarters in Manchester would be stored and dispatched from Madbury. Lynch reported that few retail customers would be expected.
On March 20 PSNH will be in to consult with the board about trimming of trees along scenic roads (Cherry Lane and Nute Road).
On March 21 a Seder will take place from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at Temple Israel in Dover, co-sponsored by Temple Israel and the Dover Area Religious Leaders Association, to introduce to those interested in the Passover and Seder traditions. It will be led by Rabbi Sam Seicol. |

CPAP stands for "continuous positive airway pressure." CPAP pumps air under pressure into the airway, keeping the windpipe open during sleep. The forced air delivered by CPAP prevents episodes of airway collapse that block the breathing in persons with obstructive sleep apnea and other breathing problems.
It is sometimes called nasal continuous positive airflow pressure (nCPAP).
Continuous positive airway pressure; CPAP; Bilevel positive airway pressure; BiPAP; Autotitrating positive airway pressure; APAP; nCPAP
CPAP can successfully treat most people with obstructive sleep apnea . It is safe and works well for people of all ages, including children. If you only have mild sleep apnea and do not feel very sleepy during the day, you may not need it.
After using CPAP regularly, you may notice:
CPAP works by keeping a steady pressure of forced air in your airway to keep it open. Other devices work in slightly different ways to treat sleep apnea:
BiPAP is useful for children and adults who have:
CPAP or BiPAP may also be used by people who have:
When using CPAP:
You may start to use CPAP while you are in the sleep center for the night.
If you are using CPAP but your symptoms don't improve, the settings on the machine may need to be changed. Your health care provider may teach you how to adjust the CPAP at home. Or, you may need to go to the sleep center to have it adjusted.
It can take time to get used to using a CPAP device. The first few nights of CPAP therapy are often the hardest. You may not sleep well at the start of treatment.
If you are having problems, you may be tempted not to use CPAP for the whole night. However, you'll get used to it more quickly if you use the machine for the entire night.
When using CPAP for the first time, you may have:
Many of these problems can be helped or prevented.
Your doctor or therapist can lower the pressure on the CPAP machine and then increase it again at a slow pace. Some new machines can automatically adjust to the pressure that is needed.

He opted for inexpensive materials such as salvaged wood and metal from the icehouse demolition, and he kept the century-old adobe wall along the property edge—an earthy counterpoint to the shiny infill housing, which takes its cues from the area's light-industrial structures. A local subcontractor, Cactus Jack, helped fashion the shadowy texture of the wood courtyard fencing and the Mondrianesque metal entry gate.
Though the homes are simple boxes, they don't skimp on energy efficiency. "We spent a little more money on window and door systems —things you would touch and that would save energy," Paulus says. Each house is oriented to its best solar advantage and is made of highly insulated wall and roof systems. The homes have been pre-plumbed for solar hot water and include rainwater-harvesting tanks. "This project is cost-effective and makes you feel good," said one judge. "The Zen quality created something way beyond the cost."

Nationals vs. Mariners
We've partnered with Pyro Spectaculars, the same company who produces the New Year's Eve at the Space Needle extravaganza, for this spectacular event. Watch us light up the sky with a fireworks show set to Seattle music through the ages, featuring Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Macklemore and everything in between.
Make your next group outing an explosive one by planning it around any of our three Fireworks Nights. The bigger the group, the more you save. Special pricing is available for groups as small as 20 people. To speak with a Group Sales Account Executive, please call 206-346-4001.
What time does the show begin?
The fireworks show will start approximately 15 minutes after the final out of the game.
Where will the fireworks be launched?
There will be three launch locations: CenturyLink Parking Garage, Safeco Field roof track in left field and the second base area on field.
Will I need to move before the show begins?
If your seats are located in the Left Field Bleachers, you will need to move to a new location before the show begins. There will be Mariners staff on hand to help you find a seat.
What if it rains?
The show will go on. Portions of the seating bowl will be exposed to the weather elements. Please dress accordingly. Only in the event of severe weather (high winds or lightning) would the event be cancelled. More information would be provided at that time.
What else should I know?
If you park in the CenturyLink Garage, please note that you will be unable to exit during the fireworks show. Exiting will begin once the Seattle Fire Department gives the "all clear" signal.

Product Review
About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
Consumer testers liked the light from Greenlites Soft White bulb. Plus, we found this CFL offered average light distribution, with an even output from all sides of the bulb. It wasn't quite as evenly bright as many of the bulbs in our test, but this bulb should still satisfy in most fixtures in your home. And it not only put out stronger light than our test 60W incandescent, but was among the more efficient of the CFLs we tested. Still, this bulb won't be around for the long run; the lights had a shorter lifespan than others in our test when frequently turned on and off.

Floor Sweepers
When it comes to cleaning our house/office we are always on a look out for easier and faster ways to accomplish the necessary yet tedious tasks. Cleaning tasks can be made easier by using a electric or cordless floor sweeper because it eliminates the messy needs of using a dustpan and broom. These sweepers are available in a wide range of models. You can have to choose one that best suit your floor type.
How to empty a cordless floor sweeper
•Before emptying, turn of the sweeper by pressing the power button on the nozzle.
•Gently remove the dust cup out of the machine. Ensure that you do not spill any of the contents as dust cup is open.
•Once the dust cup is emptied, wash it well with soft detergent and water. Dry using a lint-free towel. If there is dampness, the dirt and debris will clump together and also stick to the cup.
•Remember to replace the dust cup before you next use the floor sweeper.
GoVacuum.com is an online shopping mall from where you can purchase all your cleaning solutions at reasonable price. You can also compare the prices of the top brands that we have in our stock. Some the world class that we deal with include Bisell, Hoky, Oreck and many more. Spending some time on our website will give you a fair idea about the various features of the floor sweepers available with us before you make your final decision.

A lumbar magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan uses energy from strong magnets to create pictures of the lower part of the spine (lumbar spine).
An MRI does not use radiation (x-rays).
Single MRI images are called slices. The images can be stored on a computer or printed on film. One exam produces many images.
Related exams include:
Magnetic resonance imaging - lumbar spine; MRI - lower back
You will wear a hospital gown or clothes without metal snaps or zippers (such as sweatpants and a t-shirt). Some types of metal can cause blurry images.
You will lie on a narrow table that slides into a large tunnel-like tube.
Some exams require a special dye (contrast). Most of the time, you will get the dye through a vein (IV) in your hand or arm before the test. You can also get the dye through an injection. The dye helps the radiologist see certain areas more clearly.
During the MRI, the person who operates the machine will watch you from another room. The test most often lasts 30-60 minutes, but may take longer.
You may be asked not to eat or drink anything for 4 - 6 hours before the scan.
Tell your doctor if you are afraid of close spaces (have claustrophobia). You may be given a medicine to help you feel sleepy and less anxious. Your doctor may suggest an "open" MRI, in which the machine is not as close to the body.
Before the test, tell your health care provider if you have:
Because the MRI contains strong magnets, metal objects are not allowed into the room with the MRI scanner:
An MRI exam causes no pain. . You will need to lie still but too much movement can blur MRI images and cause errors.
The table may be hard or cold, but you can ask for a blanket or pillow. The machine makes loud thumping and humming noises when turned on. You can wear ear plugs to help block out the noise.
An intercom in the room lets you to speak to someone at any time. Some MRIs have televisions and special headphones that you can use to help the time pass.
There is no recovery time, unless you were given a medicine to relax. After an MRI scan, you can return to your normal diet, activity, and medicines.
You may need a lumbar MRI if you have:
Your doctor may also order a lumbar MRI if you have:
A normal result means your spine and nearby nerves look okay.
Most of the time, Abnormal results are due to:
Other abnormal results may be due to:
Talk to your health care provider about your questions and concerns.
MRI contains no radiation. There have been no reported side effects from the magnetic fields and radio waves.
The most common type of contrast (dye) used is gadolinium. It is very safe. Allergic reactions to this dye are rare. However, gadolinium can be harmful to people with kidney problems that need dialysis. If you have kidney problems, please tell your health care provider before the test
The strong magnetic fields created during an MRI can cause heart pacemakers and other implants to not work as well. It can also cause other pieces of metal inside your body to move or shift. For safety reasons, please don't bring anything that contains metal into the scanner room.

The Do-All Traps targeting systems have a revolutionary design that incorporates superior quality, engineering, and materials to rival any target system made. The base and arm extension are made of solid bar stock, as opposed to tubing. This creates a more solid foundation, unmatched durability, while optimizing safety. The fact that each piece is of machined quality, the shooter is assured of tolerance and precision.
In keeping with the mindset of durability, The Do-All Traps targeting systems use an ingenious one-piece twisted target. This eliminates the problem of weld breakage that occurs with older designs. The independent pendulum targets, that rotate out of the way when hit. This helps to eliminate target bounce back. Each unit also incorporates a simple, yet advanced design, which gives the shooter effortless assembly, as well as breakdown for easy transportation and compact storage.
The Do-All Traps targeting systems are made of high-grade steel and are fastened with the finest possible parts. The finish for each model is of environmentally safe powder coat paint.
The Do-All Traps (.38-.44) model (Model #SS6038) is made specifically for soft nosed .38-.44 caliber pistols. This unit has the same hands free resetting system as the Do-All Traps (.22) model, but is ready for a full range of gunslinger pistol action, with huge visible targets. The Do-All Traps (.38-.44) model is a must for every cowboy action shooter.
