Once again, HulaCross defined what thrilling motorsports is all about. Another event under the belt, and one that had some great surprises.
Sunday morning broke with a beautiful day coming on the horizon. With it, came some really spectacular, Hula-X prepped vehicles. Of notable mention were Team Randy's Services in their fully gutted and be-decked chariots. They say a sticker adds +5HP and these guys must have been pushing max HP today. They looked professional, with uniform paint jobs, and were straight up race the entire day. We love to see vehicles like this...they're great for the camera and the crowd, and look fantastic. We'd like to thank everyone that came out and put some work into their rides and invite everyone else to join in on the fun!
As we predicted, HulaCross is constantly being modified this year in order to improve the event. This event was modified by shortening practice down by an hour in order to improve the condition of the track during the HulaCross and Hulagan Racing event runs. At the previous events, we found that two hours of straight practice really tore up the track, and made it much more difficult for vehicles to compete fairly due to the rapidly detoriating course. It appears to have worked, as the casualty rate due to ruts and blown tires was much lower than previous events. Practice went on without a hitch, and all of the vehicles made it through to the HulaCross Time Attack portion.
HulaCross kicked off and our guys jumped on the track set, and ready to show their stuff. Unfortunately, a small snafu with the timing system disrupted the first 4 competitor's runs, but soon after we were back on track and everyone reported good times after that. With the amount of people needed to manually time each vehicle, the timer systems are a life-saver when it comes to this portion of the event. Even our dune buggies were able to participate thanks to the clever creation of some protective cases for the timers created by Cliff Wicklund and Cavan Medeiros.
This month's course was fast and furious...and extremely quick in comparison to last month's technical challenge. The times were incredibly fast with the mid-range starting in the 1:15s. Fantastic news for this event was that every HulaCrosser entered was able to compete in Time Attack, which is a first! As the first timers came in, we knew it was going to be a fast day...Peter Crouch popped off a scorching 1:10.10 and we were blown away by his performance in his Suzuki Sidekick. Soon after, the times started to drop even further as our Hula-X regulars began to hit the track.
The top tiers were dominated by the lighter, sportier AWD vehicles such as the Imprezas driven by Mike Ward, Thomas Carter, and Davin Kubo in addition to relative newcomer Landon Paras who blew out a scorching time in his prepped Integra. Steven Oliberos, always a fighter, was right there in speedy fashion amongst the fastest group. David Rodrigues showed that the V8 Cherokees still have alot of spirit, and came in 6th place with a 1:09.58. And what seems like a regular occurrence, Mike Ward blew everyone away with a 1:02.4 which was nearly 4 seconds faster than the closest competitor.
After a short break to tally the results, a quick driver's meeting was held to discuss the Hulagan Racing portion of the event, as well as award our top three HulaCross drivers. Mike Ward, Landon Paras, and Davin Kubo placed 1st, 2nd, & 3rd respectively. Landon was particularly excited by his results after only spending a nominal amount to prep a quickly purchased Integra with a busted motor. We were amazed at his great driving, and the awesome performance of the car, and adivse anyone looking to get into HulaCross, to check out Integras as your base model starting point!
Hulagan Racing got off to an exciting start with the fastest lineup taking the first heat of three. Mike Ward immediately led the charge with Landon Paras, Davin Kubo and Steve Oliberos hot on his heels. David Rodrigues and Peter Crouch were simply unable to catch up, leaving the top 4 free to enter the final main. Gilbert Valdez was excited to race, but disappointed in the performance of his Infinit J30...even with RWD, the vehicle was simply too heavy for the track, causing him to trudge through particular sections of the track. This enabled the remaining field of Heat 2 to advance past him. Cy Thomas, Randall Char, Kelii Pontin, and our HulaBeater rental driven by newcomer Yun Wei were all available to compete in the final heat. Heat 3 was a simple battle of attrition as many of the vehicles entered were taken out by punctures and problems. Making it to the final heat were Alfonso Puma, Hano Campos, Mic Quinn, and John Flores.
For the final heat, 12 vehicles were ready and able to compete. In typical fashion, the drivers drew numbers from a hat to determine their placement. Mike Ward, usual frontrunner of the group, drew a middle of the pack # while Landon Paras, his closest competitor, drew the holeshot with the pole position. The field was set, and with the green flag thrown by Chris Messer, the race was on!
Landon and Cy battled to the first corner, with Landon coming out ahead followed closely by Alfonso Puma and Mic Quinn. Mic was then bashed out of the way by an unforgiving charge by Kelii Pontin, losing his position in the process. Mike Ward wisely hung back through the altercation but took advantage of Mic's spin and passed him on the outside. Mike later was given an extremely nasty broadside by Kelii on the back straight-away during an unfortunate traffic jam but was able to slide past Kelii for fourth place position. Landon Paras took advantage of the situation, putting an ever increasing lead on Cy Thomas who was followed closely by Alfonso Puma. On the following Yun Wei's Honda Accord blanked out on the crowd-side straightaway leading into the first corner. This created a huge traffic jam which allowed several cars to pass.
Yun's dead Accord created a red flag situation in which everyone was brought together for a restart. Landon Paras in first, Cy Thomas in second, with Mike Ward in third...the green flag was thrown again and Mike immediately got the jump on Cy Thomas and passed him on the inside of the first corner. Cy fell back to third to battle it out with Kelii Pontin. What resulted from this pass was one of the most epic battles HulaCross has witnessed thus far. For the remaining 3 laps, Mike Ward and Landon Paras went toe-to-toe. Landon's Integra was remarkably quick, his FWD configured vehicle was able to really take advantage of the turns and proved why in the dirt, FWD is a formidable weapon against AWD. Mike had alot of power, but couldn't seem to make a comfortable pass on Landon. Mike would dip his nose into Landon's path, only to have Landon flip right around the upcoming corner in a muddy powerslide blocking Mike's exit.
It wasn't until the final lap where Landon encountered the lap traffic of #531 John Flores was Mike able to take advantage of the situation for a clean pass on the front straight-away in front of the roaring crowd. Both of our MC's, Rodney and The Kap'N were hooping and hollerin with the crowd at this amazing battle. Mike was able to speed ahead in attempt to put more space between himself and Landon with the passing of #351 Randall Char in his Kia Sophia, whom Landon promptly passed as well in his pursuit. The battle was still close until more back traffic blocked Landon, and allowed Mike to scoot past Hano Campos. Soon after many of our competitors were knocked out by attrition...Kelii Pontin, Steve Oliberos and finally Alfonso Puma broke down on the last lap causing a red flag, and signalling the end of the race. What a spectacular battle this was, and incredible to watch! We were extremely pleased with this event's wheel 2 wheel action, and we can't wait for more next March 13th!
Before closing this article up, I'd like to impart a bit of knowledge about driver courtesy and professionalism. We understand that there are going to be bumps and bruises, and we expect that. It's fun, it's great excitement for the crowd, and our drivers are out there to win. Thats why we encourage everyone to compete with vehicles other than their Daily Drivers. This is not an event geared for anyone afraid of receiving collateral damage. If you are afraid of getting your car dirty, as well as the possibility of going home with several large dents, broken tail-light housings, or lost bumpers then this is simply not the event for you.
Unfortunately, there were several examples in February's event where driver's vehicles were involved in some altercations with other vehicles that were not your normal run and gun. There's a saying that "Rubbing is Racing" and although we do believe in that rule, what we don't encourage or condone is over-agressiveness and rude conduct on the track. Drivers that intentionally ram or blindside opponents during the Time Attack portion will be immediately black-flagged and removed from the course. The HulaCross Time Attack is strictly a no-contact event. Hulagan Racing, our wheel 2 wheel portion, is a bit more forgiving but again, anyone seen intentionally causing excessive damage to another person's vehicle will be black-flagged and removed from the course as well. At our upcoming Driver's Meeting for March, we will be discussing this very topic as we feel it is extremely important.
This last event was simply incredible...it was fun, exciting, and most definetly the best wheel 2 wheel action Oahu has seen in a very, long time. If you have never witnessed or attended HulaCross, we encourage you to check it out. It's an exciting day for the entire family...so bring your coolers, your tents, and your appetite for awesomeness with you to Kalaeloa Raceway Park. Our next HulaCross is on March 13th, so we welcome you to join us! Once again, thank you to all of our drivers, volunteers, and spectators for making this a fantastic event!
As always, you can check out all of the photos from the event at our official Facebook page!

Hello Hulagans,
It was another fantastic day of racing at Kalaeloa Raceway Park with January's first HulaCross of 2011! The stage has been set for what is expected to be an exciting season of Hula-X action, with some serious potential for fun and excitement.
The day started off with two hours of practice consisting of open lapping where our line-up of drivers learned the extremely technical course. The front half of the course, consisting of the run down from the HulaCross jump and mudpit towards Bunker 3, is always different at each event. This event's course was slow and required serious concentration in order to maneuver through without getting stuck. It did provide for even more time in front of the main section of spectators, which was very pleasing as a result.
The action then kicked into high gear when our drivers went for the time attack in their chosen mounts. The timing system is proving to be a reliable workhorse when configured properly, and our driver's seemed happy with the very accurate systems. These times were then used to determine the initial heats for our foray into Hulagan Racing. Mike Ward, once again, proved that he's got the chops and the vehicle to get it done by taking the Fastest Lap of the day by an impressive three seconds! The battle for second and third was closely contested with Davin Kubo and Steve Oliberos separated by only a margin .83 seconds followed by newcomer Thomas Carter in his white Subaru Impreza.
There were lots of new faces at this event, and even some old hands like Graham Henderson who was a frequent Drift Session participant. Peter Crouch was a great example of someone doing very well against the heavy hitters with his Suzuki Samurai, knocking out a 1:15.9 for seventh place. We think he's great proof that it's all about the driver when it comes to events like this. Steven Chong led an impressive charge in his bright red Suzuki Amigo and determined the middle of the pack which ran all the way up into the 1:29 second range. This event just keeps getting better and better, and the participants are becoming faster and faster.
Special mention is Cliff Wicklund and his friend Cavan Medeiros with their awesome dune buggies. These guys were amazing to watch thanks to their quick spins around super-tight corners thanks to their turning brakes. We'd like to see more dune buggies attend the events...with enough, we'd like to open up their own buggy class, so if you've got a buggy, come join us!
Hulagan Racing is all about flag to flag, wheel 2 wheel action...and this is definetly the highlight of the event. We had two fast and furious heats of vehicles all pressing for the lead. Mike Ward was incredibly fast, claiming the lead immediately, and holding it against Steve Oliberos in a spectacular battle to the finish for the first heat. Graham did a great job holding his own in his first foray into the event. It's too bad he lives on the mainland, because we'd certainly like to see him again. The second heat was lead by Landon Paras in his dark green Saturn, beeping his horn constantly in either what was a sign of happiness or the fact his hands were all over the wheel! It was also great to see one of our HulaBeater Rentals make it into the final heat with Gilbert Valdez doing well in the Nissan Maxima he chose to run. These HulaBeaters are simply awesome in the fact that you can rent one, and then run it all day with little worry about fixing it later.
The final battle was an intense contest between the top three heavy hitters, David Rodgrigues, Mike Ward, and Steve Oliberos. From the beginning, David Rodrigues commanded a heavy lead over Mike Ward who started way back in the pack. Mike fought his way up, and thanks to a red flag, was able to close the gap and eventually pass David on the main straight leading up to the tabletop jump. For a moment, David's V8 Cherokee was able to contest the pass on the entrance to the following turn, but Mike's 4-cyl turbo Subaru had the better speed and power-to-weight ration, and rocketed away. It was a battle of atrrition for the remaining vehicles as one-by one they fell victim to the rapidly detoriating road surfaces. Poor Steve became embroiled in traffic jam and dropped back to fifth place. Landon Paris was fortunate to walk away with a very successful third place followed by Cy Thomas in fourth. All in all, it was a fantastic event that really showed off the crowd-pleasing excitement that HulaCross can generate.
In addition to the main events, we also had a short 5-lap RallyRig Battle! Two semi-rigs went toe-to-toe in the dirt and resulted in some spectacular crashing and bashing as well as some incredible 6-wheel drifts through the mud! It was a great end cap to the event!
We hope to see all of you at future HulaCross events...if you haven't been to one of our events, then you don't know what you're missing! Come on out and check us out! Click the link to view the results or follow the navigation by going to Motorsports - Hula-X - Results - 2011!

Dermabrasion is the removal of the top layers of the skin. It is a type of skin smoothing surgery.
Dermabrasion is usually done while you are awake. The health care provider will apply a numbing medicine (local anesthesia) to the area of skin that will be worked on.
If you are having a complex procedure, you may be given medicines called sedatives to make you sleepy and less anxious. Another option might be general anesthesia , which allows you to sleep through surgery and not feel any pain during the procedure.
Dermabrasion uses a special device to gently and carefully "sand" the top surface of the skin down to normal, healthy skin. Petroleum jelly or antibiotic ointment is placed on the treated skin to prevent scabs and scars from forming.
Dermabrasion may be helpful if you have:
There are other treatments such as laser or chemical peels exist for many of these conditions. Talk to your health care provider about treatment options for your skin problem.
Risks of dermabrasion include lasting changes in skin color changes (either lighter, darker, or pinker). Large scars or keloids may also result.
The risks of any anesthesia include:
The risks of any surgery include:
Your doctor may give you antiviral medicine to prevent severe cold sores from forming.
Your skin may be treated with ointment and a wet or waxy dressing. After surgery, your skin will be red and swollen. It may be hard to eat and talk. You may feel some aching, tingling, or burning for a while after surgery. Your doctor can prescribe medicine to help control any pain. You may need to have follow up visits with the doctor for dressing changes in the days after the procedure.
Swelling usually goes away within 2 - 3 weeks. The new skin will itch as it grows. Freckles may temporarily disappear.
You may have enlarged pores or whiteheads after the skin-smoothing surgery, but they will go away in time.
If the treated skin remains red and swollen after healing has started, it be a sign that abnormal scars are beginning to form. Talk to your doctor if this happens. Treatment may be available.
Men who have this procedure may need to avoid shaving for a while, and use an electric razor when shaving again.
The new layer of skin will be a little swollen, sensitive, and bright pink for several weeks. Most patients can go back to normal activities in about 2 weeks. You should avoid any activity that could cause injury to the treated area. Avoid sports that involve balls, such as baseball, for 4 - 6 weeks.
Keep your face out of chlorinated water (such as that used in pools) for at least 4 weeks.
Protect the skin from the sun for 6 - 12 months until your skin coloring has returned to normal. You can wear hypoallergenic make up to hide any changes in skin color. New skin should closely match the surrounding skin when full color returns.
Your skin will turn red when you drink alcohol for about 3 weeks after surgery.

Give Him a Ring
For 196 of the 205 days so far in 2012, Barry Larkin has been a Hall of Famer.
But he didn't really believe it until he slipped that Hall of Fame ring on his finger this weekend.
The quiet and understated Larkin slipped out of character on Sunday at the Induction Ceremony, celebrating on stage with exuberant shouts – "This is un-stinking believable!" he told the crowd of 18,000 fans at the Induction Site – and tearing up while thanking his family and friends. On Monday, with the festivities wrapping up, Larkin returned to his calm demeanor, swapping stories with Hall of Fame teammates Tony Pérez and Billy Williams at a Voices of the Game event inside the Clark Sports Center.
But before heading onstage, Larkin recounted a moment at Sunday's Hall of Famer dinner – the moment where Cooperstown went from a concept to reality.
"Frank Robinson told me that now that I have the ring, it's official," Larkin said. "Frank said that until I got that ring, they could have taken it all away. He was joking, but I would have believed him. The ring makes it seem real."
Barry Larkin: Class of 2012. That has a nice ring to it.

La Guinelle White Banyuls Vinegar - 250ml
Formaggio Kitchen Exclusive
Country of Origin: France
Region: Languedoc-Roussillon
City / Village: Cosprons
This rare vinegar is hand-made by Nathalie Herre and Michel Giurt in the town of Cosprons in the South of France. The region is particularly well known for its wines, including Muscat de Rivesaltes, Collioure and Banyuls. One taste of this Banyuls Blanc and we were hooked - in fact one whiff of its delicate floral bouquet and we were hooked.
Banyuls Blanc is very rare compared to traditional red Banyuls. The wine they use for this vinegar is 100% grenache gris. The process for making the vinegar is the same as with the red, aging the wine outside in oak barrels exposed to the natural elements where it will naturally acetify in the heat and air of the mediterranean environment. Following acetification, they move the vinegar to glass bottles where the sun helps the vinegar develop its color and a roundess to its flavors.
It has a faint blush of rose color with a silky mouthfeel. The nose is beautifully floral, with a touch of grapefruit and berries, balanced with a clean bright acidity. These are delicate flavors, not as deep as the red banyuls vinegar, and are more suited to pairings with fresh fruits, vegetables or fish.

I propose that it is not a calender at all, yes, you read that correctly.
I propose it is a long term count-down timer.
Mathematically, their calender is more accurate than what we use today.
Mathematically, there is no reason for it to stop.
When have you ever herd of a calender stopping????
What is this counting down to, good question.
I do think it must be very important, or why have a several thousand year count down to that date?

Absolutely despicable. I see articles like this all the time, from sources that cover atrocities taking place against people from all faiths. If only tolerance could be taught by organized religion, even in new ministries being set up in Pagan areas. You know, maybe these people wouldn't continue to be burned alive in front of their children because of clergy, using doctrine intermingled with local superstitions, to demonize Paganism. Paganism being an umbrella term, naturally. Yep, Christians are the only people being ostracized, their freedoms trampled upon.
One group goes about ostracizing them with brute force as well as anyone else different. The second group uses it's cleverly disquised politics to encite others to use brute force. The third group uses brute force on the first while using the second group's own political system to receive help doing it. Pagans be damned either way. They can have their religious freedom until they are discovered, then the NIMBY lynch mob is deployed. After all, everything is their fault anyway. Nope, nothing similar about these groups at all.
It's no surprise to see pot shots taken at Constitutionalists and Libertarians, considering the dogma subscribed to. Freedom of religion and speech has always been a thorn in the side of the religion of politics. Be sure to watch the newest episode of sitcom x, check the latest footage from the laser-guided-bunker-busting-terrorist-killing-bomb-o-rama site, consume, support the war, glory to the state! Brought to you by your preferred slant of the MSM. Keep drinking the kool-aid.
Truth be told, Pagans don't want to convert or sacrifice your children. They want to be able to send their children, to the state run public school we all pay for, without having them bullied and ostracized by the faculty and other students because of their beliefs. To attend school functions as a family without the political and religious BS. To assemble in public places, again places we all pay for, without facing this same situation. The truth though, that's what's dangerous. The truth is that organized religion is the one on the attack. They aren't falling apart from without because the "evil Pagans" are corrupting their congregations.
No, these religions are being exposed for what they are. Political entities bent on subjugation and control through fear management and nothing more. For so-called religions of peace, they sure do preach a lot of hate and intolerance. All while standing on a morally superior soap-box and talking about the other guy. Amazing. Oh but Jesus says- yeah but which one? Your Jesus, the Catholic Jesus, the Baptist Jesus, the Pentacostal Jesus, the Mormon Jesus, etc, etc, etc. My Jesus said this, oh yeah well my Jesus said that. Ok, so you guys aren't very organized. I know, let's go out and preach it anyway!

That IS cool. I think I would have been a little creeped out too...but cool.
I haven't volunteered to index yet, but I plan to once my children are old enough to go to school. If I did it now, while I was transcribing that one record, one of them would poop on the floor and the other would...oh, you don't even want to know.

That was a nice surprise. I've done a lot of volunteer transcribing and indexing over the years, but I think my favourite was the 1901 and 1911 Canadian Census projects on automatedgenealogy.com. I think this effort paved the way for online crowd-sourcing in genealogy! At the time, the concept was perhaps not revolutionary, but new, and it worked so well.

Mentor Graphics Design-to-Silicon Solutions Implemented as Part of Samsung Electronics' New 32nm High-K Metal Gate Offering
WILSONVILLE, Ore., June 11, 2010—Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that the low power 32nm Hi-K Metal Gate (HKMG) offering from Samsung Electronics Foundry business (Samsung Foundry) includes Mentor Graphics Calibre® design-to-silicon solutions as critical components for both design and manufacturing. Mentor Calibre OPC and Calibre Mask Data Prep products are used in the manufacturing flow, while Calibre Physical Verification and DFM products are part of Samsung Foundry's supported design flow.
"Mentor and Samsung have been collaborating for years on the development and successful deployment of Calibre platform capabilities for both design and manufacturing enablement that provide cost and productivity efficiencies benefiting both Samsung and their foundry customers," said Dr. KM Choi, vice president, System LSI Design Technology, Samsung Electronics. "The benefits of our collaboration and commitment to partnership can be seen in the timely availability of a comprehensive design-to-silicon solution enabling 32nm HKMG technology to be successfully utilized by the fabless design community."
Samsung Foundry and Mentor are providing a comprehensive set of capabilities for gate-first 32 nm HKMG designs based on the industry leading Calibre platform, which is the primary signoff environment for Common Platform technologies. The Mentor solution for Samsung Foundry 32 nm HKMG includes Calibre nmDRC and nmLVS for physical verification, Calibre LFD™ for litho variability checking, and Calibre YieldAnalyzer, YieldEnhancer for DFM. Calibre OPC and mask data preparation tools are deployed in the mask data prep flow, enabling accurate litho simulation and correction capabilities and providing fast mask turnaround times.
The Samsung Foundry-Calibre solution is more than a standard foundry reference flow because the joint solution is also used by Samsung System LSI designers in the creation of some of the most advanced high volume products in the industry. The overall flow and the Samsung design kits are constantly validated and updated by Samsung internally so that mutual customers can count on a silicon-proven design flow. Moreover, using the complete Calibre DFM platform and the robust design kits that are part of the Samsung 32nm offering, mutual customers can tune their designs to achieve smoother design ramps at Samsung.
"Samsung is an innovative partner that has helped Mentor continuously extend the Calibre platform to achieve rapid technology development cycle times and industry leading design and manufacturing results," said Joseph Sawicki, vice president and general manager of the Design-to-Silicon Division at Mentor Graphics. "Our collaboration in design verification, computational lithography and the mask production flow has produced a comprehensive capability for successful design-to-manufacturing handoff. The result is both time-to-market and yield benefits for design companies that take advantage of this new Samsung process technology."

What's Your Emotional Eating Quotient?
Why your EEQ makes you overeat and the secret to managing it so you can lose weight
By Denise Foley

The Thrill Seeker: You're Bored and Want Candy
What you probably want is a jolt of dopamine, says Susan Carnell, Ph.D., research associate at New York Obesity Nutrition Research Center, St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital. That's the brain chemical that drives excitement, pleasure, and motivation including the motivation to eat. "The dopamine system evolved with the very purpose of making adaptive things like eating feel rewarding so we wouldn't forget to do them."
These days, says Carnell, drugs, thrill seeking, and food cravings have hijacked the brain's reward system, leading to addiction, accidents, and overeating. Recent studies have found that ingesting sugary, fatty foods sparks dopamine production in the brain in much the same way drugs like heroin do, lighting up the neural reward center in imaging studies. "It's just a matter of degree," says Carnell. "Food gives a relatively mild high compared to skydiving and heroin. But it's the easiest route to reward."
Surprisingly, there's not a lot of research on boredom eating, but a small 2011 Bowling Green State University study hints at how prevalent it is. In the study, 139 young men and women reported eating out of boredom more than out of other states of emotion linked to overindulging, such as anxiety or depression.
Older studies, approaching boredom from a slightly different direction, have suggested a connection between having what scientists call a "novelty-seeking personality" and being overweight. In a review from Washington University in St. Louis, obese people were more likely than thinner folks to be novelty seekers; they also had great trouble dropping pounds. One reason: Being high in novelty-seeking can make you more likely to overeat as well as to try and enjoy drugs. Cocaine, a cupcake it's all the same when you're looking for a kick.
Joking aside, if your life seems like one big yawn, there are things to do other than hitting the fridge.
1. Seek Out a Thrill
Make a list of activities that can fill in the boring blanks. "To stimulate your neural circuitry, it has to be something that makes you feel excited and motivated," says Carnell. You could, for example, take a class. Dopamine is the chemical that fosters learning and memory, so the novelty of doing something new scatters the chemical throughout your brain. Whether it's knitting or scuba diving depends on you and the level of excitement you think you need.
2. Shake Up Your Life Regularly
Get off the bus at a different stop and hoof it the rest of the way to work, checking out the sights you've only seen from a window. Plan your dream vacation or home-remodeling project in detail, as if you're doing it soon. Need to lose weight? A single program may not help you, particularly if you get bored counting calories, carbs, or points. So try one and, after the thrill's gone, try another. Likewise, alternate physical activity walking one day, Zumba the next.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection is a test to look at the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord.
CSF acts as a cushion, protecting the brain and spine from injury. The fluid is normally clear. Ithas the same consistency as water. The test is also used to measure pressure in the spinal fluid.
Spinal tap; Ventricular puncture; Lumbar puncture; Cisternal puncture; Cerebrospinal fluid culture
There are different ways to get a sample of CSF. Lumbar puncture (spinal tap) is the most common method.
To have the test:
Occasionally, special x-rays are used to help guide the needle into position. This is called fluoroscopy.
Lumbar puncture with fluid collection may also be part of other procedures such as an x-ray or CT scan after dye has been inserted into the CSF.
Rarely, other methods of CSF collection may be used.
CSF may also be collected from a tube that's already placed in the fluid, such as a shunt or a ventricular drain.
You will need to give the health care team your consent before the test.
Afterward, you should plan to rest for several hours, even if you feel fine. This is to prevent fluid from leaking around the site of the puncture. You will do not need lie flat on your back the entire time.
It may be uncomfortable to stay in position for the test. Staying still is important because movement may lead to injury of the spinal cord.
You may be told to straighten your position slightly after the needle is in place. This is to help measure the CFS pressure.
The anesthetic will sting or burn when first injected. There will be a hard pressure sensation when the needle is inserted. Often, there is some brief pain when the needle goes through the tissue surrounding the spinal cord. This pain should stop in a few seconds.
In most cases, the procedure takes about 30 minutes. The actual pressure measurements and CSF collection only take a few minutes.
This test is done to measure pressures within the cerebrospinal fluid and to collect a sample of the fluid for further testing.
CSF analysis can be used to diagnose certain neurologic disorders. These may include infections (such as meningitis) and brain or spinal cord damage. A spinal tap may also be done to establish the diagnosis of normal pressure hydrocephalus.
Normal values typically range as follows:
Note: mg/mL = milligrams per milliliter; mEq/L = milliequivalents per liter
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The examples above show the common measurements for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
If the CSF looks cloudy, it could mean there is an infection or a buildup of white blood cells or protein.
If the CSF looks bloody or red, it may be a sign of bleeding or spinal cord obstruction. If it is brown, orange, or yellow, it may be a sign of increased CSF protein or previous bleeding (more than 3 days ago). There may be blood in the sample that came from the spinal tap itself. This makes it harder to interpret the test results.
Additional conditions under which the test may be performed:
Risks of lumbar puncture include:
There is an increased risk of bleeding in people who take blood thinners.
Brain herniation may occur if this test is done on a person with a mass in the brain (such as a tumor or abscess). This can result in brain damage or death. This test is not done if an exam or test reveals signs of a brain mass.
Damage to the nerves in the spinal cord may occur, particularly if the person moves during the test.
Cisternal puncture or ventricular puncture carries additional risks of brain or spinal cord damage and bleeding within the brain.
This test is more dangerous for people with:

Venture Right: Our Guiding Philosophy
Great venture capital investing requires the ability to see opportunity where others see challenge. Company builders, market experts and excellent board members are words that describe venture done "right." These are words that describe Menlo Ventures.
How do we know? We asked our entrepreneurs, limited partners and many others in our ecosystem what makes us stand out. They told us it's how we work with our entrepreneurs. We're straight shooters. We have their back – even when times get tough.
We are more than partners. We are allies.
Venture investing is all about discovery and partnership, transforming vision into reality.
We know this well. We've had decades of successful exits—70 public companies and more than 100 mergers and acquisitions since 1976. Plus, entrepreneurs keep coming back to us—20 CEOs in our current portfolio are serial entrepreneurs. And 90% of our founders were in place at the time of exit. That's a number that few other firms can match.
When we commit, we go all-in, serving on our companies' boards with unparalleled dedication and passion. In fact, our board counsel is Menlo's number one added value, our entrepreneurs tell us. They appreciate our decades of experience: our partners who are engineers, patent holders, company founders, and thought leaders with great connections.
Entrepreneurs have tons of venture capitalists to choose from. They choose Menlo because of how we do business.
We don't just invest.
We bring time, energy and passion.

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.
This traditional carry-on is a tough cookie: It handily passed our durability tests and did very well on the abrasion test. Testers praised its smooth glide and the easy-to-open main compartment. However, the telescopic handle had a tendency to stick in our tests, and consumers found the top compartment tough to access. When empty, the bag weighs 7.9 pounds. briggs-riley.com.br /> Colors: Sunset and Rainforest

†Natural Instincts Level 2 Non Permanent vs. the leading Level 3 permanent crème colorant
Hair, just like skin, is susceptible to environmental factors that attack the proteins in your hair, which can weaken the hair structure and ultimately lead to breakage. In most cases, this process is amplified when you color your hair.
Our Natural Instincts ammonia-free system nourishes and protects your hair with clinically proven healthier color*. The antioxidant properties prevent the formation of highly reactive, damaging molecules by helping to inactivate the metal ions that cause their formation. This leads to predictable color results and hair that's actually healthier-looking than before you colored!

ST. LOUIS (KMOV.com) -- Two West St. Louis bar owners are the latest victims of a crime trend that is causing concern among small business owners.
Police are seeing more home invasions where the victims are believed to be targeted for the keys to their businesses.
The latest case is the third in the past month, in different parts of the Metro area. On Christmas Eve, two adult entertainment store owners were targeted at their home in Mehlville. On the same morning, a jewelry store owner was attacked in High Ridge.
Police are reportedly sharing information on the crimes but don't think the three cases are related. What is similar, however, is that in each crime the robbers specifically demanded keys or alarm codes to the victims' business.
Early Thursday morning, two men wearing ski masks and armed with a handgun invaded a home in Tower Grove South, confronting the two women inside- bar owners of Attitudes in the Grove neighborhood. The men stole cash, phones, jewelry and keys to the bar. A short time later police discovered that Attitudes had been burglarized.
Fellow business owners believe someone knew who the owners were or were targeting them specifically.
"This kind of crime is highly out of the norm," Jeromy Rout, owner of Just John Nightclub, said. "This is not a neighborhood crime. I think that it was definitely a targeted event."
That gives little comfort to fellow business owners like Rout. He says he and his partner at Just John are extra vigilent—at home and at the club. He's outfitted the bar inside and out with cameras and has a safety policy.
"We always err on the side of caution. We think our patrons feel safer, we think our staff feel safer," Rout said. "We don't let people go outside by themselves, they can't take trash out by themselves, they can't walk to their cars by themselves."
Police say that's good practice and that even simply looking around can make a big impact.
"There's one thing that a bad guy doesn't want. He doesn't want to be seen, even if it comes down to just the awareness of the individual walking out," St. Louis County Police Officer Randy Vaughn said. "The last thing you can offer to a criminal is that you're aware that he's there and that he may commit a crime."
St. Louis Metropolitan Police are looking for two black men, described to be short and thin. Both were wearing masks.
St. Louis County Police are still investigating the home invasion in Mehlville, and Jefferson County Sheriff's deputies connected Derrick Stewart to the crimes in High Ridge. Stewart has been charged with kidnapping, robbery and assault.
