text: Boasting dozens of languages, half a billion residents, and over 25 countries in an area less than half the size of the United States, Europe could easily be considered the most culturally diverse continent on the planet. During a Europe cruise, nature enthusiasts will be awed by the icy blue fjords of Norway and Ireland's Cliffs of Moher. The archaeologically inclined will delight in the ruins of Troy, or Delos, revered as the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. The list of "must-sees" on a Europe tour are as varied as its visitors. A trip includes such classical destinations as Venice, Athens, Spain, London and France, but a cruise to Europe also invites travel into the Arctic, Turkey, Serbia, as well as the treasures of Africa's Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia and Cape Verde. Experience the majesty of Europe travel and find your own off the beaten path European adventure.

Bayer places great importance on protecting the environment and using natural resources responsibly. But environmental protection is also in harmony with our economic interests – it creates the foundation for our business activities and can help cut costs.
* Other, e.g. hydrogen
19 Greenhouse gas emissions * in the Group (million metric tons of CO2 equivalents)
Specific greenhouse gas emissions***** (metric tons of CO2 equivalents per metric ton of product)
* Portfolio-adjusted in accordance with the GHG Protocol
** In 2011, 90.8% of greenhouse gas emissions were CO2 emissions, 8.7% were N2O emissions, just under 0.5% were partially fluorinated hydrocarbons and 0.04% was methane.
*** Typically, CO2 in incineration processes accounts for over 99% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, when determining indirect emissions, our calculations are limited to CO2.
**** Based on 2005 figures. The presentation of greenhouse gas emissions is portfolio-adjusted, with no portfolio adjustment of production volumes; emissions reported for Currenta attributable to the provision of energy to other companies have been deducted, and at Bayer MaterialScience the by-products sodium hydroxide solution and hydrochloric acid generated during production are not included in the production volume as they will occur in much smaller amounts in the future, thanks to measures aimed at enhancing energy efficiency. Trade products are also not included.
***** Specific Group emissions are calculated from the total volume of direct and indirect emissions divided by the manufactured sales volume of the three subgroups. Quantities attributable to the supply of energy to external companies (not Bayer) are deducted from the direct and indirect emissions. For the Bayer MaterialScience subgroup, only manufactured sales volumes that also form the basis for calculating Bayer MaterialScience-specific emissions are taken into account.
20 Greenhouse gas emissions for subgroups and service companies (total direct and indirect emissions in million metric tons of CO2 equivalents)
Specific greenhouse gas emissions for Bayer MaterialScience (metric tons of CO2 equivalents per metric ton of product) ****
* Portfolio-adjusted, based on 2005 figures
** Total greenhouse gas emissions for Bayer Technology Services and Bayer Business Services
*** The emissions reported for Currenta are attributable to the provision of energy to other companies at the Chempark sites.
**** The by-products sodium hydroxide solution and hydrochloric acid generated during production are not included in the production volume as they will occur in much smaller amounts in the future, thanks to measures aimed at enhancing energy efficiency. Trade products are also not included. Internal studies at Bayer MaterialScience have revealed that in previous years selected polycarbonate materials (so-called compounds) were not included in the calculation, because this would seemingly have led to double counting. On closer inspection this proved to be incorrect. For this reason these materials have been included retrospectively in the annual Bayer MaterialScience product volumes calculated.
* In CFC-11 equivalents
** Target to be achieved by 2015 based on 2010 figures

Water consumption (million m2 per year)
* The figure of 437 million m³ recorded for water consumption and published in our Annual Report 2011 was too high. The correct figure is 411 million m³. At one of our sites, a large amount of process water, which is continually recirculated in a closed cooling system, was mistakenly recorded as "consumed water."
** Through optimized accounting of water use, water consumption from other sources as from 2010 was assigned to the actual sources in most cases.
* Total organic carbon
** Calculated value based on TOC figures (TOC x 3 = COD)
* Only waste generated by Bayer
** Definition of hazardous waste in accordance with the local laws in each instance
* Bayer serves as a certified waste disposal plant operator at various sites. At these locations, Bayer disposes not only of its own waste but also of waste from third parties (companies not belonging to the Bayer Group). There is therefore a somewhat larger amount of waste disposed of than Bayer has generated itself.

The Aroma of the Knowledge of God: How the Sense of Smell Inspires Worship and Awe
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
John Calvin really believed that the sun revolved around the earth, but we shouldn't dismiss the rest of his theology because of this error.
God invites us to understand his power and nature through studying what has been made.
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
Children's books are more than stories. They can become familiar narratives children listen to over and over. So it's worth asking - Are the books we're reading doing a good job of portraying God and His Creation?
Conflicts occur when people argue one worldview against another. They may be arguing Atheism versus Monotheism, then pull out science as a weapon saying, "science proves I'm right because of this or that..." In my view, science is rather more limited than this. Science has a lot of interesting resonances with the big questions, and can inform them, but I don't believe it can answer them.
When you are in church, do you act and speak differently than when you are in school? Do you tend to compartmentalize what you learn about in Biology class from what you learn about in Sunday School?
Russell Crowe as Noah was no superhero. He was very human—perhaps too human for those who'd prefer he remain in the flannel graph world of our Sunday School stories.
There is often a worry that working in or studying science is a threat to faith, but stories of scientists who are Christians in the top ranks of academia show that this is not the case.
How should we interpret the Bible? What is the role of tradition? What is the role of science? Who gets to decide whether traditional interpretations need to change?
"I believe that we must now ask for more than simple avoidance of cognitive dissonance. I believe we should seek for cognitive consonance."
Carl's dramatic lines that opened his Cosmos were repeated in Cosmos II: "The universe is all there is, or was, or ever will be." When I told Haines Stiles that many people took that as a statement of atheism, he responded with surprise. "Really?" he said. "We just put that in because it sounded poetic!"
A deep love for scripture, coupled (ironically) with a lifelong struggle with religious doubt, led Robert Boyle to write several important books relating scientific and religious knowledge. We explore aspects of this fascinating interaction.

Head Coach Robert Olesen enters his thirteenth year overall at Charlotte, tenth as head coach, and has been the driving force behind the development of well-balanced men's and women's track & field and cross country programs that are highly competitive at the conference level and advance student-athletes to the highest levels of competition in the nation.
Since joining the program, Olesen has helped the 49ers win 19 indoor & outdoor track and field league titles and a conference title in men's cross country. From 2006 to indoor 2010, Charlotte swept all women's conference titles, earning seven in a row. Olesen has been named A-10 Coach of the Year 14 times, along with Southeast Region Men's Indoor Coach of the Year three times (2008, 2009, 2010) and Southeast District Women's Outdoor Coach of the Year once (2006).
Under Olesen, Charlotte has garnered 19 NCAA All-America honors from 10 different individuals, in addition to 11 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans. Olesen guided Charlotte's first male track & field All-American (Rephel Martin, 2000) and women's indoor All-Americans (Shareese Woods and Cassie Ficken, 2005). Since joining the Atlantic 10, Charlotte has had 10 Most Outstanding Rookies and 15 Most Outstanding Performers in track and field.
In addition, over the last few years the 49ers track & field program has produced two USA Junior National Team members for track and field (2001-Ian Dickinson and 2012-Trey McRae), World Junior Cross Country National Team member (2005, Nick Sunseri-Canada), its first Olympian (Abe Morlu-Liberia, 2000) and a gold-medal winner for the U.S. in international competition (Shareese Woods, at the NACAC in 2006) among other accolades.
In 2011, Olesen saw senior Darius Law, a 2011 NCAA Walter Byers Scholarship Finalist, earn a school-record third Capital One/CoSIDA Academic All-America award. Excelling in the classroom throughout college with a 4.0 GPA in Management, Law was also named the 2010 Arthur Ashe Jr. Scholar-Athlete of the Year, one of two national winners and several finalists in recent years for Charlotte. He ended his collegiate career with a school-record 26 gold medals in Atlantic-10 Championship competition, including seven as a senior. Law competed at the 2011 NCAA Championships in the 400-meters and was the only athlete to qualify for the 2010 NCAA Championships in both the 200 and 400-meters, earning All-America honors in the indoor 400-meter dash.
In addition to Law, the track and field program produced another recent All-American in Amanda Goetschius, who earned the honor with her performance at the 2010 women's indoor 5,000-meters. Along with All-America accolades, both Law and Goetschius earned berths into the outdoor national finals, as did Adu Dentamo. Goetschius wrapped up the 2010 season by running in the 10,000-meter run at the USA Track and Field Championships, as did Sunita Braithwaite in the 100-meter hurdles.
Charlotte sent a school-record eight athletes to the 2009 NCAA Outdoor Championships with senior long jumper Pat Springs turning in her second All-America performance of her senior year. At the 2007 NCAA Championship, former 49er sprinter Shareese Woods came just two steps away from making the trip to Beijing for the 2008 Summer Games. Former Triple Jumper Sharonda Johnson was the first female All-American in a jumping event and recorded the feat twice during her career. As a field-event specialist, Olesen has had eight All-American performances in the jumps at Charlotte; in addition, the 49ers have had All-Americans in each of the major event categories, including sprints, field events and distance for each gender since Olesen began his tenure as head coach.
Olesen is a 1990 graduate of the University of Illinois, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Kinesiology with a coaching endorsement. He garnered All-America honors in the triple jump in 1989 and was the Big Ten triple jump champ and the team MVP in 1990. Olesen, who first joined the Illini as a walk-on, earned four letters and competed in both the triple and long jumps. Olesen got his coaching start as a Graduate Assistant at Southwest Texas State in 1990. He served as assistant coach there from 1992-95, and earned his Master's Degree in Physical Education from Southwest Texas State in 1995. While in Texas competing as a post-graduate, Olesen competed in the 1992 Olympic Trials in New Orleans. Olesen is a USA Track and Field level one certified coach as well as being level two certified in both the jumping and throwing events.
In addition to his success on the track, Olesen was a member of the 1998 United States Olympic Bobsled team, helping the U.S. finish seventh in the two-man bobsled at the 1998 Olympics in Nagano, Japan. En route to this accomplishment, his sled teams accumulated eleven world cup medals, including two bronze at the 1997 World Championship, an Olympic Trials championship and a number of U.S. Championships. His tenure with the team lasted from 1994-1998, during which he also earned the 1995-96 USOC Athlete of the Year Award in the sport of bobsled and was a member of the 1996-97 USOC two-man bobsled team of the year.
Olesen and his wife, Cindy, who was a four-time Big Ten high jump champion, have two children, Elizabeth and Thomas.

The Palette ProjectParadigm ShiftOn 2014 I've imposed myself a challenge: "I should draw a doodle a day, during the whole year".The reason why I took such a challenge was because I wasn't happy with how much I created on the year before, on 2013. Before starting the challenge I would procrastinate instead of drawing, I would wait for some magic sort of inspiration to come in order to draw anything at all. That was the paradigm, the standards of my work flow. After concluding the 365 Days of Doodles project I had a new paradigm: I can create one black&white drawing everyday.What I want to do now in 2015 is changing the paradigm again: I want to add color palettes to my doodles. Seven, to be more specific.

Do I get the miztvah of learning Torah, by listening to your answers of these peoples questions?
Actually, if you do not say a correct answer out loud and only think it, then only according to the GR"A is that considered learning Torah. Almost all other Halachic authorities hold that learning Torah requires saying the words. Therefore you would be allowed to read the answers to these questions and even listen to a shiur (Torah class) without having said Bircas HaTorah. So I would say that if you wish to fulfill your obligation of learning Torah every day and night, do not rely on reading or even listening to any source of Torah (mi.yodeya included). Rather, take out a sefer and review something you learned over the past year. |
The Mishnah Berurah(Simin Mem Zayin) says that writing is good because there is an action so I think even if you hold HIrur is no good writting would be Limmud. |

The Auburn University Research Initiative in Cancer in the College of Veterinary Medicine has awarded The Speaker Mike Hubbard Fellowship in Cancer Research at Auburn University to graduate student Farruk Kabir.
As the first Mike Hubbard Fellow in Cancer Research, Kabir will continue his research in the Molecular Genetics Laboratory studying the mutations that cause breast cancer.
"Mr. Kabir's ultimate goal is to contribute to the advancement of genetic studies of breast cancer, focusing on defects in genes that normally suppress cancer cell growth and on recently discovered small regulatory RNA molecules that can also suppress cancer growth," said AURIC Director Bruce Smith. "He is pursuing his work by studying breast cancer in dogs, a disease that is nearly identical to breast cancer in women."
The endowed fund was created to provide support to an outstanding student pursuing a doctoral degree in cancer research. The offices of the associate deans for research in the College of Veterinary Medicine and the Harrison School of Pharmacy also contributed to the fellowship which provides one year of stipend support. The fellowship is renewable for up to three years; however, renewal is competitive, and demonstration of progress toward the graduate degree and continued work in cancer research is required.
A native of Bangladesh, Kabir earned his Bachelor of Science and Master of Science in biochemistry and molecular biology from the University of Dhaka. Upon graduation, he joined the prestigious International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research in Bangladesh, an international health research organization which addresses critical global health concerns.
In 2009, he was admitted to the Cellular and Molecular Biosciences interdisciplinary graduate program at Auburn University. He is currently enrolled in the College of Veterinary Medicine's Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program. R. Curtis Bird, director of the Molecular Genetics Laboratory, is Kabir's research mentor.
The College of Veterinary Medicine launched AURIC as a new initiative aimed at accelerating cancer innovation from the laboratory to the clinic in March 2012. The initiative embodies "One Medicine" – the concept that sees human and animal health as a single field where discoveries in one species advance health in both species. The Speaker Mike Hubbard Fellowship in Cancer Research at Auburn University was named for Alabama House Speaker Mike Hubbard of Auburn who was instrumental in establishing AURIC.

Patric Young was fouling the shite out of JOB the other night and was barely getting whistled. Every time LSU touches an opposing player, it's a fricking whistle. I know we have had some stupid fouls, and JOB has led the way with dumb fouls, but we could use a break or two to go our way.

Tested by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute
Panasonic Viera TC-L47WT50 47-Inch Internet TV
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.
Panasonic's top-of-the-line 47-inch Viera WT50 Smart TV boasts plenty of nice touches that make this TV among the simplest to use. It has an intuitive, simple home screen layout and its handy Touch Pad controller (which acts similar to the touchpad on a laptop) makes scrolling and navigating the Internet a breeze. When compared to other 47-inch sets in our test though, video performance didn't stand out enough to warrant this TV's comparatively large price tag.
Picture quality was good overall, but we noted some shots appeared grainy and dim during our tests watching The Dark Knight. There was also a bit of choppiness during action scenes in Avatar. On the plus side, the TC-L47WT50's LED backlit screen produced deep blacks that other sets couldn't with the same clarity. Operating speed was a highpoint with the TC-L47WT50; this set was among the quickest to load in in the bunch and navigating was nearly seamless. This makes the system easy to operate and apps quick to dive in and out of. Like the other high-end Viera we tested, the TV started up in seconds. By comparison, many other sets took close to half a minute.
Our calibration tests, which pick up on TV's ability to pick out detail and provide accurate colors were disappointing. The TV's ability to smooth out "noise" (often referred to as grain) in a picture wasn't quite up to par. Sound quality was adequate at most levels, but it didn't project volume as forcefully without distortion. We'd recommend an external soundbar or surround sound speakers for a more theater-like experience. Energy consumption with the LED set was relatively low, in contrast to the plasma displays we tested from Panasonic.
Panasonic's app store layout and interface rated nearly the highest of any TV we tested. Consumer testers loved the set's built-in Netflix and YouTubeapps, and how easy it was to navigate the Internet. The TC-L47WT50 comes with a standard remote, as well as the Panasonic's Touch Pad controller (popular with our volunteers), which lets you navigate with an onscreen mouse by using your thump on the pad. Wireless setup was easy, and the owner's manuals were the most straightforward of the bunch.

Mazda's SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY is an ambitious undertaking. The automaker set out to improve mileage, reduce emissions, and still design and manufacture vehicles that are fun to drive, and to achieve those potentially conflicting goals it "started with a clean sheet of paper and engineered every major component of the automobile to work together in efficient harmony."
Mazda had its own CAN network design tool, but as part of its SKYACTIV makeover it selected Mentor Graphics' Volcano Network Architect software to verify in-vehicle network bandwidth usage and ensure that network configurations will work even under worst case conditions. It's good to be optimistic but it's vital to expect the unexpected.
And Mazda's use of VNA enabled significant improvements in network efficiency and reliability, according to those involved.
"VNA has unparalleled capabilities in enabling design, implementation and optimization of deterministic communication systems, leading to profound improvements in efficiency, quality, and reliability of in-vehicle networking," says Mentor VP Serge Leef. "We are pleased we have been able to provide a product to Mazda that makes the management and maintenance of their distributed network solutions more efficient."
Mazda used VNA to analyze networking issues and make improvements based on the results. By entering network data generated from Mazda's tools into the VNA, Mazda was able to identify which messages on the CAN bus caused problems.
VNA has optimization features to load up more than 90 percent of available network bandwidth. Mazda engineers used the analysis from VNA to optimize and verify that the network bandwidth is utilized to an increased level, but is not overstressed. They were able to increase network utilization and at the same time reduce both testing requirements and testing time significantly. Engineers could then apply what they learned to new network additions.
"Migrating from in-house design environment to Mentor Graphics Volcano Network Architect-based design environment moved smoothly and it reduced the testing requirements and time significantly," said Tetsuhiro Yamashita, staff manager, Vehicle Development Division, Vehicle System Development Department, Mazda Motor Corporation. "We are happy to have improved our design quality, as well as our automotive network reliability."

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare condition that causes symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease . However, patients with MSA have more widespread damage to the part of the nervous system that controls important functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, and sweating.
Shy-Drager syndrome; Neurologic orthostatic hypotension; Shy-McGee-Drager syndrome; Parkinson's plus syndrome; MSA-P; MSA-C
The cause is unknown. MSA develops gradually and is most often diagnosed in men older than 60.
MSA damages the nervous system. Symptoms can include:
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease:
Your doctor or nurse will examine you, and check your eyes, nerves, and muscles.
Your blood pressure will be taken while you are lying down and standing up.
There are no specific tests to confirm this disease. A neurologist can make the diagnosis based on:
Testing to help confirm the diagnosis may include:
There is no cure for MSA. There is no known way to prevent the disease from getting worse. The goal of treatment is to control symptoms.
Anticholinergic medications may be used to reduce early or mild tremors. Levodopa may improve movement and balance.
Carbidopa is usually added to Levodopa to reduce its side effects and make it work better. However, for people with MSA the response to medications may be disappointing. Many people respond poorly to treatment with anticholinergics or Levodopa.
Medications that may be used to treat low blood pressure include:
A pacemaker that is programmed to stimulate the heart to beat at a rapid rate (faster than 100 beats per minute) may increase blood pressure for some people.
Constipation can be treated with a high-fiber diet and laxatives. Medicines are available to treat impotence.
The outcome is poor. Loss of mental and physical functions slowly get worse. Early death is likely. Patients typically live 7 to 9 years after diagnosis.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of this disorder.
Call your health care provider if you have been diagnosed with MSA and your symptoms return or get worse. Also call if new symptoms appear, including possible side effects of medications:
Contact your health care provider if you have a family member with this disorder and his or her condition deteriorates to the point that you are unable to care for the person at home.

Washington - The United States is giving an additional $105m in humanitarian aid for the Horn of Africa, where famine is spreading in Somalia, White House spokesperson Jay Carney said on Monday.
The money, from US President Barack Obama's Emergency Relief and Migration Assistance Fund, will provide "urgently needed food, health, shelter, water and sanitation assistance to those who desperately need help", Carney said.
The United States has provided about $565m in humanitarian aid so far this year, he said.
About 3.6 million people are at risk of starvation in Somalia and 12 million people across the Horn of Africa, including in Ethiopia and Kenya, the United Nations says.

West Hollywood Housing, West Hollywood, Calif.
Rather than viewing photovoltaic panels as something to hide, architec Patrick Tighe transformed them into a key design element on the rooftop and side of the building.

The courtyard provides a place of sanctuary for the special-needs residents. Floating light fixtures add to the contemplative, otherworldly feeling.

The project's site plan.
The building served as the pilot project for West Hollywood's Green Building Ordinance. Strategies for sustainability, including photovoltaic panels, solar hot water, and passive cooling, are integrated into the design.
The metal screen supplies shading while permitting light and fresh air into the units.
The units feature semi-private outdoor spaces.
A unit interior. "It's a very dense building, and we wanted to get light and ventilation into every unit," Tighe says.

The judges admired this special-needs affordable housing project's lush courtyard and patterned façade. Its 42 units all open onto the courtyard, which serves as a quiet sanctuary for the residents. This space contrasts with the front elevation, which holds its own on busy Santa Monica Boulevard. "We wanted the building to have a presence on the boulevard, so the thought was to make a very bold façade," says architect Patrick Tighe, AIA. Sustainable features include photovoltaic panels that wrap one side of the building. "There are so many beautiful things about this project," said one judge.

VAN ALSTYNE — It's a place to escape, where quiet afternoons are coveted.
But the work going on inside at Enterhealth Ranch is everything but the easy life.
"It's just a way to release whatever is in your mind... you let it free," explained Jonathan Marquez, a recovering alcoholic who was taking part in art therapy at the addiction treatment center.
"You drink so you can get peace of mind, so you can forget after awhile... but eventually you end up in a worse place," Marquez said. "This was literally my last hope."
Dr. Hal Urschel with Enterhealth believes addiction injures the brain. He says it's a chronic disease like, for example, diabetes.
Much like many diabetics need insulin, he believes many alcoholics need Vivitrol.
It's an FDA-approved injection that stops alcohol cravings for a full month. So once the shot is administered, the user has no choice but to be sober for 30 days.
Previously, the drug only came in pill form, giving patients the choice to take their medicine every day and plan a relapse.
"You know who loves the shot the most?" Dr. Urschel asked. "The families, because they know for the next month their loved one can't get drunk, can't get intoxicated."
If Marquez tries to get drunk after Vivitrol injection, it won't work. He'll feel nothing — no high, no rewards.
Although his body can still physically get drunk — staggering and slurring words — the incentive to drink is no longer there.
"There is not an alcoholic out there that drinks so he can get his next DWI," Dr. Urschel explained.
"Within a week, I just wasn't even having thoughts about drinking," Marquez said.
Dr. Urschel emphasized that the shot alone isn't enough. Patients have to want to change, not just through medicine, but using tools like therapy, good nutrition, and coping skills.
"I'd go to the gas station, and, of course, there was beer right by the front door," Marquez said. "I would go by and not even think twice. That was a big step for me."
Vivitrol doesn't work for everybody. It only controls cravings up to 90 percent. That's where the coping mechanisms have to come into place.
At Caron Texas, a different treatment center, the injection is not as readily used. Patients there go through the therapy program first; then — if there is a concern about relapse upon release — the drug is prescribed.
"Recovery one day at a time is more important than the shot itself," said Caron Texas medical director Stephen Garrison.
Dr. Garrison said while Vivitrol is safe, he is concerned too many people will try to use it alone — as if it were a magic cure.
"We believe coping skills help with the cravings more than the medicine itself," Dr. Garrison said.
Enterhealth doctors believe in coping skills, too, but typically include the shot as part of the treatment plan early on.
"I am terrified as a physician that the patient's next relapse is lethal — for them or someone else," Dr. Urschel said. "I'm not going to take that chance."
Marquez is now one year sober using Vivitrol. Although he's had no side effects, he's been warned not to try and out-drink the drug.
"If you take it and you're not in treatment and you try and drink so much alcohol to get an effect, you'll kill yourself," Dr. Urschel said.
But with no cravings, Marquez said that desire isn't even there. He just wants his life back.
"It's hard to admit, but you're in your mid-40s and you have to learn who you are all over, because you've been in a fog for two-and-a-half decades," he said.
The anti-drinking injections are administered by professionals monthly. Each one costs about $1,300 if your insurance doesn't cover it.

Checking Ebay for hyperactive thyroids.
So that minor foot injury I had a couple of weeks ago just kept getting worse. May have to have surgery, but for now it's just physical therapy and staying off of it. I haven't done any cardio (outside of walking) in 5 weeks now. So frustrating. Thinking about upgrading my 24 HR Fitness membership so I can go to a club with a swimming pool. Despite all this nonsense, I started lifting again and I'm still cooking my lean protein/low carb meals at home. Down 3 lbs in the last month. Can't wait to get back to cardio again.

Reaching out to Pennsylvania High Schools, Middle Schools and Elementary Schools
The Westminster College Science in Motion program provides elementary, middle and high school students with laboratory experiences with modern instrumentation and offers their teachers professional development opportunities through workshops and mentoring links with college faculty. The Science vehicles at Westminster College will transport scientific equipment and instruments to participating teachers in order for them to increase understanding of the science concepts they are teaching.
Goals of Project
- To increase student interest and participation in science courses and science careers.
- To ensure equal opportunity to learn for all school systems in participating in SIM by providing access to modern technology.
- To enhance science teacher's ability to provide challenging and stimulating instruction to all students through curriculum development and staff development opportunities.
- To establish a teacher network among high school science teachers and between high school teachers and Westminster College faculty.
- To facilitate implementation of the Pennsylvania Science Standards.
- To provide students with experiences using state-of-the-art scientific equipment and instrumentation in their school laboratories,
In meeting these goals, the SIM program directly addresses several areas of critical need in Pennsylvania's science classrooms. Regarding equipment and supplies, there is general agreement that hands-on activities in a science classroom greatly enhance the learning process for students. However, few science teachers in our state have the resources to run an effective laboratory program. SIM essentially gives participating high school and middle school science teachers access to an equipment storeroom with more than $200 K of modern laboratory equipment.
The Science in Motion program includes in its yearly schedule a substantial professional development component for teachers that strengthens content knowledge and provides a direct mentoring link with natural science faculty. Another need for teachers is time. Most science teachers are assigned to teach multiple subjects during the day, and there is little time for them to prepare for laboratory experiments, even when equipment is available. SIM meets this need with laboratory experiments and equipment to be used in the classroom.
