A boil is an infection that affects groups of hair follicles and nearby skin tissue.
Related conditions include:
Boils are very common. They are most often caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. They can also be caused by other types bacteria or fungi found on the skin's surface. Damage to the hair follicle allows the infection to grow deeper into the follicle and the tissues under it.
Boils may occur in the hair follicles anywhere on the body. They are most common on the face, neck, armpit, buttocks, and thighs. There can be one or many boils.
A boil may begin as a tender, pinkish-red, swollen, firm area in the skin. Over time, it will feel like a water-filled balloon or cyst .
Pain gets worse as it fills with pus and dead tissue. Pain lessens when the boil drains. A boil may drain on its own. More often, the boil needs to be opened to drain.
The main symptoms of a boil include:
Other symptoms may include:
The health care provider can usually diagnose a boil based on how it looks. A sample of cells from the boil may be sent to the lab for a culture to look for staphylococcus or other bacteria.
Boils may heal on their own after a period of itching and mild pain. More often, they become more painful as pus builds up.
Boils usually need to open and drain in order to heal. This most often happens within 2 weeks.
You may need to have surgery to drain deep or large boils. Get treatment from you health care provider if:
It is important keep a boil clean:
Your doctor may give you antibiotics you take by mouth or a shot if the boil is very bad or comes back.
Antibacterial soaps and creams cannot help much once a boil has formed.
Some people have repeated infections and are unable to prevent them.
Boils in areas like the ear canal or nose can be very painful. A health care provider should treat boils of the nose.
Boils that form close together may expand and join, causing a condition called carbunculosis.
Call your health care provider if boils:

Shipping and packing party at sweet maria's
So we survived the holidays, and the S.M. crew did a pretty amazing job turning around orders. Last year we fell behind by 24 hours or so getting orders out, but this year we had days we were sending off orders placed that very morning. We always do the best we can, but now we face the backlog of orders than came in during vacation. So please be patient. We are shipping 'em out in the order they came in, and will be back to our normal 24 hour turn-around by next week. -Tom (P.S. - I have a new Sumatra and the end of our Costa Rica La Minita allotment coming early next week)

Barry Manilow bids fond farewell at Bradley Center
Barry Manilow swears his "One Last Time!" tour really is his last. It shouldn't be.
That's for a couple of reasons. Monday, the "Last Time!" tour stopped at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, for Manilow's 15th concert in the city over the past 40 years. Nothing personal against the venue, but there were curtained off sections, and multiple pockets of empty seats. Fans — and Manilow — deserved the intimacy and electricity of a packed theater for this possible farewell. »Read Full Article

Artist couple creates high-brow, low-brow conceptual feasts
It was a nine course meal, if you count the amuse-bouche and the three desserts, including the blue cheese ice cream with little cubes of poached pears and an artful balsamic reduction swirl on the plate. The skyline view was one of the more spectacular I've experienced here.
No, we weren't dining at one of Milwaukee's finest restaurants or one of the many fashionable newcomers either. We were in the modest-sized Brewers Hill apartment of two artists.

As it is for now:
Everything starts out at $5.00.
The price increases as more detail is put into the art, but the base price is $5.00.
Things that will be $5.00:
1. *Lineart* Chibi pictures, regardless of how many characters (as they should be simple enough)
2. Lineart of a single character.
Both with NO background or color.
If Group pics, it's a dollar for every extra character. So:
1. Lineart for Couple pics is $6.00
2. Lineart for a group of three is $7.00, and so on.
The price jumps to $10.00 if you want something colored (my color pencils have seen better days, honestly) or shaded. Still without Background.
If you want something with a background, the price jumps to $14.00 dollars, more or less depending on HOW detailed a background you want.
Ex: This would probably be a $15.00: [Link]
as opposed to this, which would probably be a $20.00: [Link]
I do not draw Digital Art (yet. I have a tablet, but I'm having difficulty finding a program that won't lag with my tablet.) I draw Traditionally.
However, if you would really like me to draw you something, but you would REALLY like it to be colored digitally (and you yourself don't want to go through the trouble of doing it yourself or looking for someone else to color it for you), you're going to have to commission both me and my friend MoonShineKitten. Commission me to draw the lineart, and commission her to color it. You will pay the total it would be, but split half of it between the both of us.
Check out her gallery, and you'll see that she's fairly skilled with coloring (especially with coloring my lineart).

Hives are raised, often itchy, red bumps (welts) on the surface of the skin. They are usually an allergic reaction to food or medicine.
When you have an allergic reaction to a substance, your body releases histamine and other chemicals into the blood. This causes itching, swelling, and other symptoms. Hives are a common reaction. Persons with other allergies, such as hay fever, often get hives.
When swelling or welts occur around the face, especially the lips and eyes, it is called angioedema . Swelling can also occur around your hands, feet, and throat.
Many substances can trigger hives, including:
Hives may also develop as a result of:
Your doctor can tell if you have hives by looking at your skin.
If you have a history of an allergy, then the diagnosis is even more obvious.
Sometimes, a skin biopsy or blood tests are done to confirm that you had an allergic reaction, and to test for the substance that caused the allergic response.
Treatment may not be needed if the hives are mild. They may disappear on their own. To reduce itching and swelling:
If your reaction is severe, especially if the swelling involves your throat, you may require an emergency shot of epinephrine (adrenaline) or a steroid. Hives in the throat can block your airway, making it difficult to breathe.
Hives may be uncomfortable, but they are usually harmless and disappear on their own. In most cases, the exact cause of hives cannot be identified.
Call 911 or your local emergency number if you have:
Call your health care provider if the hives are severe, uncomfortable, and do not respond to self-care measures.

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- It's been two years in the making but today Arizona's first medical marijuana dispensary opened its doors.
Arizona Organix was the first dispensary to be inspected by the Arizona Department of Health Services but the business didn't open the doors immediately.
After a Superior Court judge ruled that Arizona's medical marijuana initiative was constitutional, Organix was ready to go. As for the lingering cloud of prosecution by Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery, "a judge settled that issue earlier this week," said owner Bill Mayer.
The Glendale facility is separated into two rooms, a waiting room and a room where you are able to select which "grade" of marijuana you want. No cash is accepted, but once an item is picked, the patient goes to another secure window where the purchase is made. Only two people are allowed into the back room for security purposes.
Two hours before the opening of the state's first dispensary, Mike Gonzales was lined up outside Arizona Organix, ready for the doors to open.
"I was worried there was going to be a long line and I wanted to be first," he said. Gonzales says the marijuana eases the pain caused by a tumor in his neck.
According to Gonzales the new dispensary means he will now be able to get his "medication" from a safer, more secure location.
DHS will no longer allow incoming patients to grow their own marijuana if they live within 25 miles of a dispensary. The Glendale site's opening will mean the end of legal growing for everyone in Phoenix.
Those who are already approved will have their licenses to grow suspended once they try to renew.
The Glendale dispensary is among 96 applicants chosen through a lottery system for 126 geographic areas across the state.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Golf and Baseball
By Trevor Hayes
On Saturday, I met up with Michael Walker, the senior editor of Golf Magazine. He was in town for the weekend to hit the links and crush a few at the Leatherstocking Golf Course while taking in the scenic and blossoming village of Cooperstown and its three renowned museums: The Fenimore Art Museum, the Farmers' Museum and of course the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
Walker is a Medfield, Mass. native and which is just under 45 minutes from 4 Yawkey Way – the address of Fenway Park and the home of the Boston Red Sox. When I asked him to get his picture taken in the Plaque Gallery, he mentioned Ted Williams, then Carlton Fisk. As we walked through the gallery, I motioned to Williams plaque and asked him if he preferred Fisk over Williams as his favorite Hall of Famer.
"I think for me it would have to be Williams for what he meant to the city."
Like most Sox fans, conversation about the team quickly steered to present day and the success the team has seen this decade. Walker had said he hadn't been to the Museum since 2001, so I asked if he knew we had Curt Schilling's bloody sock. His face lit up. I could tell he was suddenly reliving the 2004 World Series again.
"Has it been tested for ketchup like all those Yankees fans claim?" he joked. "I can't wait to see everything from 2004. For me baseball has changed so much since I was here in '01."
As a baseball guy talking to a golf guy, I had to ask, what's the allure of golf to ballplayers?
"I think pitchers for whatever reason are usually the best; it's that pitching motion that is similar," Walker said. "I mean, (Red Sox pitcher John) Smoltz plays with Tiger (Woods). Pitchers and hockey players are always good and I think it's because the swing is so similar to what they did in their sport.
"It seems like all ex-jocks, when they can't compete any more in their sport take up golf so they can compete in something," he said. "You see all these Pro-Am's and they are just filled with former ballplayers."
Walker told me that he had a buddy who played in a group of four with Tim Wakefield, but he'd never played with any big name baseball players. Then as if to further make his point about golf and baseball, Walker mentioned that he saw 2009 Hall of Fame electee Jim Rice out on the course earlier that morning.
"I haven't really played with any guys, but meeting Rice this morning out on the course, that was something else."
The natural question after he said he'd met Rice, was if he'd be back later this summer for Induction? Walker said he didn't think he'd be able to make it this year, but true to his 2004 dedication, he said there is one ballplayer he won't miss.
"My brother and I were talking and I think for Pedro (Martinez) – when it happens – we'll come back."
Trevor Hayes is the editorial production manager at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Mo. man apologizes for '87 theft from WSU

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- A southwest Missouri man has been sentenced to probation for stealing a statue from Wichita State more than 25 years ago.
Mitchel R. Potter of Lamar, Mo., has pleaded guilty to receiving stolen property in connection with the 1987 theft of a bronze bust of poet Robert Frost from WSU. Potter, who was not a student at Wichita State, was sentenced to two years of probation and 100 hours of community service.
Potter says he stole the statue when he was a 19-year-old fraternity pledge and that he should have left the sculpture alone. The Frost piece was acquired in 1983 and is one of two sculptures of the poet by Massachusetts artist Walker Hancock.
"It's embarrassing to have something come back after years," said Potter, 45.
He was arrested last year after a tip led authorities to the bust at Potter's home. The piece has since been returned to WSU, where it's in storage.
Potter contacted The Wichita Eagle (http://bit.ly/17Ykifp) to apologize to WSU and explain why he stole the bust. He has declined to say where he was a student at the time of the theft or which fraternity he belonged to.
"I just wanted to let the university and Wichita know that I am truly apologetic for my actions as a youth, and I just didn't want people to think that I'd come up there and took it maliciously," he said.
He said he and friends were running around the WSU campus that day and ran into the statue, which teetered and shook. Potter said the bolts securing it to its concrete pedestal loosened, and the statue fell to the ground.
"It was like, 'Wow! Look at that. That's cool,' " Potter said. So they picked it up and fled, Potter said.
He said the statue sat in his basement in Lamar for more than 25 years.
Martin Bush, who worked for WSU from 1971 to 1989, reported it missing 25 years ago. Bush said he always thought the statue disappeared as part of a prank.
"I think he's paid his penalty, as far as I'm concerned," bush said. "I'm delighted that the university has it back."

Probably should spring for the 12 player version.
Telestrations is one of the few games where the more players, the better! Which is good, because this is party game for 4-8 players (or up to 12 players with the new party pack version).
This gives you the idea of the
hilarity you're in for.
Telestrations, by USAopoly, is such a simple idea and so well designed, you'll wish you'd thought of it yourself. Each player gets a dry erase notebook with alternating word and picture pages, a pen, and one clue card. When the timer starts, every player draws their clue on their first page. Time is up, so hand your notebook to the player next to you. Now, everyone tries to guess the word the drawing represents on their new notebook. Time, switch again. Now, draw a picture representing this new word. This happens again and again until everyone has either drawn or written in each notebook, and everyone has gotten theirs back. Now the fun really begins, as each player goes through the drawings and guesses players have made in their notebook, leading back to the original clue.
All the stuff in the box.
Oh man, is this fun. Sure, winning is cool, and like Pictionary before it, Telestrations doesn't necessarily favor the best artist. Instead, the best communicator will win. But really, winning is only one of the ways to succeed at Telestrations. In fact, the more boldly you play, even if you can't communicate well, the better the game will be! Because it's the mistakes that lead to the best moments. Even if you're embarrassed by your art or guessing skills, get over it for this game. You're the star if you stink at either.
Oh man, so typical of this game.
That's what makes this such a great party game! In fact, if you own this game, I recommend telling the players exactly that - try your best, of course, but even if you can't draw well, don't give up! A bad, sincere drawing will be so much more fun than a successful winning drawing, or worse, someone giving up because they're self-conscious. Have confidence and know that even if you're the worst artist of the group, you're the best player in Telestrations.
Things can get interesting, depending
on the people you play with.

Helmerich & Payne Becomes #62 Most Shorted S&P 500 Component, Replacing CONSOL Energy
A stock with a high "days to cover" value compared to its peers would be considered to have a higher level of short interest as compared to those peers. This could mean short sellers are using the stock to hedge a long bet elsewhere, or could also mean that short sellers believe the price of the stock will decline. When short sellers eventually cover their positions, by definition there must be buying activity because a share that is currently sold short must be purchased to be covered. So investors tend to keep an eye on that "days to cover" metric, because a high value could predict a sharper price increase should the company put out some unexpectedly good news — short sellers might rush to cover positions, and if the "days to cover" number is high, it is more difficult to close those positions without sending the stock higher until the higher price produces enough sellers to generate the necessary volume.
Below is a three month price history chart comparing the stock performance of HP vs. CNX:
According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, HP and CNX collectively make up 1.09% of the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund ETF (XLE) which is up by about 0.2% on the day Friday.

The California Backyard Orchard
'I Am Bug Girl'
Gotta love that Bug Girl.
Oh, sure, there are lots of bug girls and bug boys out there--bug women, bug men and real insects, too--but there's only one Bug Girl.
She's the one who writes that witty/informative/tell-it-like-it-is-not-what-you-want-it-to-be bug blog called...drum roll...Bug Girl.
Bug Girl, aka Bug C. Membracid, spoke at a social media seminar at the 59th annual meeting of the Entomological Society of America, held Nov. 13-16 in Reno.
Before her talk, folks were sporting "I Am Bug Girl" stickers on their name tags. That added to the mystery of "Who is Bug Girl?" That one? This one? The one over there? Will the real Bug Girl please stand up?
See, she writes anonymously. We don't know who she is--she keeps her identity a secret--but we do know she has a doctorate in entomology from North Carolina State University and she works in a provost's office "in a Connecticut university."
We also know she wears a mop of hair the color of a blue morpho butterfly and some cool (and mostly erect) blue antennae--at least she did at the ESA meeting. We also know she has a fan base like you wouldn't believe. Fellow bug lovers were coming out of the woodwork like termites to hear her speak, hug her, and to be photographed with her.
Move over, Angelina Jolie. Take a seat, Taylor Swift. Scoot, Jennifer Aniston. We have a scientist in our midst!
In her talk, "Adventures of Bug Girl or Everything You Wanted to Know About Entomological Social Media But Were Afraid to Ask," she told how you, too, can become "an online entomology goddess." She began blogging as Bug Girl in 2004, as "a way to become a better writer."
Bug Girl writes the way she talks. No academic jargon, nothing you have to read three times to understand. "it's about talking to people; it's about conversation, not lecturing," she said.
However, Bug Girl warned "people can be very cruel to you." Someone even set up a website countering her views, she said.
She also mentioned her bug-blogging buddies, including Dragonfly Woman, Alex Wild (he received his doctorate in entomology from UC Davis) and Carl Zimmer, among others. "I don't see us as competitors, but as collaborators," she said. "It's not about who has the most followers."
"What I do isn't so much as public outreach; it's public engagement. It's having a conversation with our readers."
Bug Girl said she's proud of what she called "the little victories," like convincing Nature journal to spell "bed bug" as two words, instead of one. She bashes bad science like some folks bash cockroaches.
Bug Girl hammered home several pieces of advice:
1. Find your niche or what she called your "blue water" or where few are--and not "red water," because that's where the sharks are.
2. Find your voice and make it distinct. Don't look for validation or positive validation.
3. Develop a thick skin.
4. Be prepared to spend a lot more time and energy than you expect.
5. Don't expect a profit.
For all bloggers and would-be bloggers, Bug Girl recommended folks read David Meerman Scott's The New Rules of Marketing and PR.
For the full account of what Bug Girl said at the ESA meeting and what bugs her, link here.

06.Feb 2015
Although now nothing more than an everyday item, mineral salt was hugely important – and expensive – in the Middle Ages, earning itself the soubriquet 'white gold', and often being transported over vast distances to keep the whole region supplied with this precious commodity. The wealth of the towns trading and transporting salt was founded on it – either through producing it (Lüneburg), trading it (Lübeck) or by taxing the traders who travelled on the route (Mölln). The historical transport route runs from Lüneburg to Lauenburg, where it crosses the river Elbe and then follows the Elbe-Lübeck canal all the way to Lübeck. The Old Salt Road travels through magnificent scenery, dotted with sleepy villages, stone churches, and the resting places of former travellers on the Stecknitz canal. Amateur historians interested in the salt trade's long history and seeking traces of its heyday have a large choice of places to visit, including the German Salt Museum in Lüneburg, the shipping town and region of Lauenburg, and Mölln, which is associated with medieval prankster Till Eulenspiegel. Lübeck remains a gateway to the Baltic to this day; the Salt Road, which passed through the town, brought it riches and power. The Holsten Gate and the Lüneburg salt storehouses are powerful reminders of Lübeck's past glory.

The VISTA at Westminster College is through Pennsylvania Campus Compact and focuses on developing and supporting community service, service-learning, and civic engagement programs at higher education institutions (http://www.paccompact.org/vista.html).Our PACC-VISTA works in the Drinko Center to bridge campus and community through projects in the areas of tutoring and mentoring, volunteer matching, and supporting our service-learning courses.
Westminster College's Drinko Center for Experiential Learning named recent Westminster graduate Marah Alouise as its newest Pennsylvania Campus Compact-Volunteer in Service to America (PACC-VISTA).
A large part of Marah's role focuses on the implementation of a collaborative effort between Westminster College and community partners (West Middlesex School District, Cray Challenges and Origins) to provide an after-school robotics program, entitled "Transformers," designed to develop science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) skills. In a dynamic and supportive learning environment, enhanced by the use of robots, students work with Westminster College student mentors to develop skills necessary to be successful in the classroom and in the future.
PACC-VISTAs have included:
- Shane Killian, AY 2007 - 2008

Luckily, there are ways to get treatment. Learn about treatment for depression and what you can do to help yourself get better.
Recognizing depression in your teen; Helping your teen with depression
Talk therapy can help you feel better. In talk therapy, you talk with a therapist or a counselor about how you are feeling and what you are thinking about.
You usually see a therapist about once a week. The more open you are with your therapist about your thoughts and feelings, the more helpful the therapy can be.
Be involved with this decision if you can. Learn from your doctor if depression medicine might help you feel better. Talk about it with your doctor and parents.
If you take medicine for depression, know that:
If you are thinking about death or suicide:
Talk with your parents or your doctor if you feel your depression symptoms getting worse. You may need a change in your treatment.
Risky behaviors are behaviors that can hurt you. They include unsafe sex, drinking, doing drugs, driving dangerously, or skipping school. If you take part in risky behaviors, know that they can make your depression worse. Take control of your behavior rather than letting it control you.

SANFORD—Rivals Massabesic and Sanford battled to a 1-1 tie in SMAA field hockey action last Wednesday in a game that went through two scoreless overtime periods.Sanford struck first when Caroline L'Heureux scored on an assist by Emily Salls at the 12:10 mark of the first half. Sanford goalie Taylor Zuk made several key saves to keep the Mustangs off the board through the first half, and the score remainined 1-0 at the break. The Mustangs remained scoreless through much of the second half, but with 5:34 remaining in the game the Mustangs finally scored. "After not capitalizing on numerous scoring opportunities, we finally got on the board when Hannah Patch won a scrum with a nice ball to the back of the goal," said Massabesic coach Michele Martin-Moore. Both goalies, Zuk and Massabesic's Abby Greenleaf, turned in awesome performances. Coach Martin-Moore also praised the defensive play of Sarah Cost who "once again made a clutch defensive save at the end of the first half."L'Heureux nearly had two goals in the contest when she scored a goal that was disallowed because the pass into the circle had not gone five yards.Zuk had 13 saves for Sanford and Greenleaf had 14 for the Mustangs.SANFORD 7, BIDDEFORD 1On Monday, Sanford hosted the Biddeford Tigers and came away with a 7-1 victory to improve their record to 8-3-1.Sanford was led by Lauren Saqwyer and Janelle Cannon who scored two goals each.Biddeford struck first, making it 1-0 early on a goal by Mallory Mourmourous. But that would be all the offense Biddeford could muster as Sanford dominated play the rest of the game, scoring seven straight goals.Other Sanford goals were scored by Caroline L'Heureux, Emily Salls and Addie Purvis. In addition, Sawyer and Salls each had two assists and L'Heureux added one.The Spartans close out the regular season on Friday when they entertain the 10-1 Cheverus Stags in a 6 p.m. game at Goodall Park.

O'FALLON, Ill. (KMOV) -- City workers are developing a plan to repair a broken sewer line near North Smiley and Deer Creek roads in O'Fallon.
Public works director Dennis Sullivan told News 4 that the sewer line had been buried under Engle Creek, but the flow of the creek, over time, washed away the soil and left the sewer line exposed and vulnerable. Apparently water from a heavy rain lifted the pipe and caused a connection to fail and rupture.
Sullivan said that on most days water from the creek flows into the pipe and there's very little raw sewage that leaks. But when there is a heavy rain, such as last Sunday, raw sewage leaks out into the creek and gets washed downstream.
The City of O'Fallon has notified the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency about the problem and has urged residents who live in the neighborhood to keep children from playing in the area.
O'Fallon public works employees are writing up a plan to replace a section of pipe but also shift the contour of the creek bed to avoid the problem from happening again. That plan will have to be approved by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers and the Illinois EPA before the 3-week and $350,000 project can start.

Temporal arteritis is inflammation and damage to the blood vessels that supply blood to the head.
If the inflammation affects the arteries in your neck, upper body and arms, it is called giant cell arteritis.
Arteritis - temporal; Cranial arteritis; Giant cell arteritis
Temporal, giant cell, and cranial arteritis occur when one or more arteries become inflamed, swollen, and tender.
Temporal arteritis commonly occurs in the the arteries around the temples (temporal arteries). These vessels branch off from the carotid artery in the neck. However, the condition can occur in medium-to-large arteries in other places in the body.
The cause of the condition is unknown. It is believed to be due in part to a faulty immune response . The disorder has been linked to severe infections and the use of high doses of antibiotics.
The problem may develop with or following another inflammatory disorder known as polymyalgia rheumatica . Giant cell arteritis almost always occurs in people over age 50. It is rare in people of African descent. The condition may run in families.
Some common symptoms of this problem are:
Other symptoms can feel like a bad flu, such as:
Problems with eyesight may occur, and at times may begin suddenly. These problems include:
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease, including:
The doctor will examine your head.
Blood tests may include:
Blood tests alone cannot provide a diagnosis. You will need to have a biopsy (tissue sample) from the involved artery. The biopsy is done on an outpatient basis.
You may also have other tests, including:
Receiving treatment right away is key to preventing severe problems such as blindness or even stroke.
Most of the time, you will receive corticosteroids medicines you take by mouth. These medicines are often started even before a biopsy is done. Your doctor may also tell you to take aspirin.
Most people begin to feel better within a few days after starting treatment. However, you will need to take medicine for 1 - 2 years. The dose of corticosteroids will be cut back very slowly.
Long-term treatment with corticosteroid medicines can make bones thinner and increase your chance of a fracture. You will need to take the following steps to protect your bone strength.
You may also need to take other medications that suppress the immune system.
Most people make a full recovery, but treatment may be needed for 1 to 2 years or longer. The condition may return at a later date.
Damage to other blood vessels in the body such as aneurysms (ballooning of the blood vessels) may occur. This damage can lead to a stroke in the future.
Call your health care provider if you have a throbbing headache that does not go away, and other symptoms of temporal arteritis.
There is no known prevention.
