HCG Diet Protocol
- Safe, simple, wieldy.
- Provides demolishing persistent body fat deposit in body.
- Provides losing weight without side effect.
- Shapes the body again.
What is HCG Protocol?
HCG protocol includes daily injections which are applied with low-calorie diet. Besides HCG protocol losing needles body fat, it provides to organize food habits of the person who is on a diet. In this way safe, natural and permanent solution has been provided.
How Does HCG Work?
HCG-HUMAN CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN: Is a naturally generated hormone in body. For the baby and the mother it provides losing body fat and producing energy.
For losing weight, this HCG hormone is used in small quantities.
This small quantity of HCG does not have any effect related to the pregnancy. For this reason it can be used both men and women safely.
Is This Protocol a New Application?
No. It is not a new protocol and it is used in Europe and America for decades.
How Does HCG Affect?
HCG can provide to be used body fat deposits which cause locational lipoidosis as metabolic by effecting on hypothalamus.
Positive Effects of HCG:
- Positive Mode
- Increasing feeling of fullness
- Regulating sleeping
- Increasing energy
Can patients gain weight again?
After using protocol belongs to HCG Diet; your habits, your metabolism, your body shape and your life will change.
This is a diet program which has been arranged outstandingly for setting up rules about a healthy life to you.
For having a healthy physique, you should start to exercise and continue it even if in minimum level.
During your diet, all sport activities you can do; like cycling, water sports or any sorts of yoga, in any event, are important for warning to hypothalamus, providing to control weight after diet.
Fundamentals about HCG diet protocol
Researches which have been done about HCG diet protocol shows that, losing weight during this diet, are in the area where persistent body fat is found, do not cause tissue of muscle loss.
During this diet, while persistent body fat is burning, all agents of useful nutritional which have been taken with foods can be used properly.
For this reason the person who is on a diet feels herself/himself healthy and happy while losing weight.
There is no active campaign for this service.

Music's the ultimate stress buster: Sudhanshu Pandey
It's my private space and it helps me relax. It's the ultimate stress buster for me. My favourite singers from the bygone days are Mohammad Rafi and Kishore Kumar. From current times, I like Sonu Nigam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.
My current favourite is Abhi mujh mein kahin. I feel it's Sonu's best song ever. Some of my most evergreen numbers are all songs from Border and Kal Ho Na Ho's title track.

Treating Tuberculosis in People With HIV
Topic Overview
Treatment for people with tuberculosis (TB) who also have human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is nearly the same as for people who don't have HIV. But there are some important differences, including:1
Treatment of latent TB in people with HIV infection
Experts recommend one of the following treatments to cure a latent TB infection in people with HIV infection.
Treatment of active TB in people with HIV infection
People who are infected with HIV take a combination of four medicines daily for 2 months to treat active TB. This is followed by two medicines daily for the next 4 months.1

Do I really need to say more? It's an intestinal parasite…
…in fossil shark poop.
Two related headlines here:
Comet, asteroid, and meteor impacts have been blamed for several of the Earth's greatest extinctions, including the one at the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) Boundary that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs (and later dominance of mammals). It's only natural then, when an extinction is identified in Earth's history, to take a moment and look for evidence of an impact.
The Clovis culture disappeared from North America about 9,000 years ago. That's similar to when many of North America's 'megafauna,' or giant animals, went extinct, like the woolly mammoth and giant ground sloth. For the extinction of the megafauna, most arguments hinge around human over-hunting or climate change, because that was about the same time that humans made it onto North America and it was also the end of the last glaciation.
There are some, however, who argue that an impact event caused the extinction of the megafauna and then also the demise of the Clovis culture. There was even a Nova documentary about it. Alas, the newest and best evidence soundly rebuts this idea. There are no impact craters from that time period (though it's been argues that the comet hit the ice cap). There's no shocked minerals either. Minerals take on the appearance of being disrupted (or shocked) due to the force of impacts. Shocked quartz is common from the K-T boundary event, but there is none associated with this 9,000 year old event. No impact occurred.
The downside is that we still don't know what happened to the Clovis people.

This post will point out the major inaccuracies portrayed in movies about the science of paleontology. I'm a paleontologist. This oughtta be good…
Commonly, about two seconds after I tell someone I'm a vertebrate paleontologist, they ask me what I think of Jurassic Park. Then I laugh. It's either that or they ask me if I carry a whip like Indiana Jones. Then I snarl something about how 1) Dr. Jones was an archaeologist and 2) Indiana was the dog!
Misconceptions about paleontology: 1) Paleontologists only study dinosaurs. 2) Paleontologists study arrowheads and ancient pottery.

The Beware of Movies! series is meant to point out some of the scientific inaccuracies of popular movies, specifically in points related to the geological sciences.
This blog post will point out the major inaccuracies portrayed in movies about the Earth's composition and its magnetic field.
Today (January 15, 2013) I presented a Beware of Movies lecture at a local retirement community. The focus was on the Interior of the Earth, and was the topic of an earlier blog post. It was a wonderful experience. (I love doing those things!) In the process of preparing, then delivering, the presentation, I did realize that I left a few critical things out. Hence, a new blog post!
Meteorites — What do they have to do with the Earth's interior?
One of the big problems that arises with bad geology movies is that they get the composition of the Earth all wrong. There aren't amethysts in the mantle. Diamonds and rubies would not co-exist. We know that the mantle of the Earth is composed of mafic and ultra-mafic rocks (think back to Bowen's Reaction Series). That means it's mostly low-silica, high iron and magnesium rocks down there. Even deeper, we know that the core is composed mostly of iron and nickel.
As we stand on the Earth's surface, such minerals and rocks are rare. It's easy to think that most of the rocks of the Earth should be felsic things like granite, with tons of quartz. This is simply not the case.
But why? How can we make the assumption that the mantle is mafic and the core is iron and nickel. We know some of this because there are a few places on Earth where mantle rocks have been exposed at the surface (usually due to tectonic events). We can hypothesize some compositions based upon how seismic waves refract through the body of the Earth (seismic waves travel at different rates through different materials).
We can make some assumptions about the overall composition of the Earth based upon studies of meteorites. We assume that the bits of rock and dust that collected all those billions of years ago to form our beloved planet formed from the same bits of rock and dust that make up meteorites. If you take a meteorite and grind it up, you find it to be of mafic composition, with low silica, and high concentrations of iron, magnesium, and nickel. Some meteorites are almost pure nickel and iron. Others are more rocky. This is assumed to be the starting point for the Earth's composition.
Over millions of years, these mafic pebbles that came together to form the planet fused, and then underwent a process called 'differentiation,' which is just a fancy way to say 'the heavy stuff went to the middle.' Thus, the nickel and iron are at the core of the Earth, surrounded by the mantle of mafic rocks. Felsic rocks, like granite, tend to be light and naturally 'float' to the surface, which is why they are what we usually see in the rocks around us!
Magnetism — The Earth isn't exactly a giant bar magnet, but it's similar.
Here's the neat thing about the core. It's iron and nickel. Iron is a conductor. If you have an electrical current, you have a magnetic field. And voila! The Earth has a magnetic field.
The core is divided into two parts, the liquid outer and the solid inner. The mantle is also solid. Because the Earth rotates, flow is set up in the Earth's liquid outer core. With that flow, and a little nudge, an electric current is set up. The flow is thought to be in several isolated cylinders surrounding the solid inner core. This is where the 'bar magnet' analogy fails, because each cylinder has it's own field, and these combine to form the magnetic field of the Earth. This is referred to the geomagnetic dynamo.
Because of the dynamic nature of flow in the core, the magnetic pole never quite lines up the the Earth's rotational axis. In fact, the magnetic poles move around quite a bit, sometimes even reversing themselves (though this takes more than a single human's lifetime). There are lots of questions regarding how the magnetic field forms and how it might reverse itself, and is an active field of research in geophysics.
Beware of movies! The basis of the entire movie "The Core" is that the flow in the liquid outer core has stopped, thus causing the Earth's magnetic field to fail. If we did lose the magnetic field, there could be repercussions, however, the magnetic field on Earth has gone essentially to zero multiple times in Earth's history. Every time the magnetic poles reverse themselves, the field goes to zero first. While there is some evidence that this might have caused problems for certain single-celled organisms, large animals have not been affected. The cataclysms that are shown in the movie would not be expected. So don't worry.
D.B. Sweeney, Julianna Margulies and Samuel E. Wright
Premise: What would happen if a dinosaur was raised by lemurs?
OK. This is totally a kids' movie. I won't say anything about talking dinosaurs. And I know there has to be tons of artistic license. Fine. Nevertheless, there are some things about this movie that are terribly inaccurate.
But I only took two pages of notes, and, admittedly, the pencil was blunt and there were pictures. So there's not too much.
Dinosaurs that I recognized: Iguanodon (e-K), Carnotaurus (l-K), An Oviraptor (Rinchenia) (l-K), Velociraptor (l-K), Brachiosaurus (l-J), Styracosaurus (l-K), Ankylosaurus (l-K), Parasaurolophus (l-K), Struthiomimus (l-K)
Those funny little parenthetical bits there denote the age of rocks in which each of these animals are typically found. (l-K) means the late Cretaceous, just before the dinosaurs went extinct. Luckily, most of the animals depicted in the movie are from the late Cretaceous. That makes sense. The whole movie begins with an asteroid impact which, presumably, represents the one that killed off the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous.
There are a couple of problems though. For one, the main character is an Iguanodon. Iguanodon lived in the early Cretaceous (e-K). That could be 50-70 million years before the rest of the characters. But if that's not bad enough, Brachiosaurus is from the late Jurassic (l-J), which is tens of millions of years older than that.
So, these animals never actually co-existed.
Lemurs, or any modern primate did not appear on the Earth until at least ten million years after the dinosaurs went extinct. So that just wouldn't happen. But fuzzy animals with goofy personalities are great for the show.
There are some other bits that were worrysome: Why are the lemurs on an island separated from the mainland? Why aren't there dinosaurs on that island? How come the nesting grounds are unaffected by the meteor impact? Why are all the dinosaurs essentially sentient, except for the poor ankylosaur?
That landslide was a little sketchy, too. Where did that rock come from?
Oh, and hey. Why did any dinosaurs survive? After all, didn't the asteroid wipe them out at the end of the Cretaceous? In the end, this is actually OK. Maybe some relict populations did survive beyond the end of the Cretaceous, but died out soon thereafter. There's even some evidence that this occurred, though most paleontologists are skeptical. The point is that it is plausible that not everything died immediately after the impact.
Besides, it's a kids' movie. What do you want?
Jurassic Park
Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum
Premise: What if we could clone dinosaurs and made a theme park around them?
You were probably waiting for this one. I had to do Jurassic Park. I'm a paleontologist. It's a rule, right?
When Jurassic Park came out, I was in my fourth year as an undergraduate (I'd been a senior for a while already, and wouldn't graduate for at least one more year), studying both geology and biology. I was going to be a vertebrate paleontologist, and I was pretty sure I was going to study dinosaurs. (I never have studied dinosaurs, but I did become a vertebrate paleontologist. 50% is pretty good, right?)
I never did see this in the theater. I saw it a year later when it came out on video. I watched it the evening of the day that I took the GRE exams. Yes, exams in the plural. This is back when there were only two dates a year you could take the GRE and it was a hand-written test. I took both the general and the subject exam in one day. I was fried that night. I remember laughing at the cute dinosaurs while my roomates and friends fell on me in terror.
Since then, this movie has been a popular one to watch with the various geology clubs I've been associated with. It's full of problems with both paleontology and biology. I'll try to stick to the paleontology problems.
The bottom line is this: We're probably not EVER going to see cloned dinosaurs. Now, maybe we can do some genetic engineering and get dinosaur-like animals from modern birds, but that's about it.
I'm only planning to review the first Jurassic Park movie. The others are based upon accepting the assumptions from the first, so there's little point in considering the others (with the possible exception of the character Robert Burke, from the second movie, The Lost World).
PORTRAYAL OF PALEONTOLOGY: Oh, goodness, it's wrong. Just wrong. The setting, the outcrops, were all right, but what the science looked like is wrong.
Exposing the fossil: 1) I have never been to a fossil locality where a brush was all that was needed to expose a fossil. Additionally, paleontologists tend NOT to expose fossils as they dig. They only uncover enough so that they can determine the exent of the the fossil. Then they trench around the specimen, keeping as much rock as possible in place. Once a trench is dug, and the fossil is still encased in rock but now sitting on a pedestal, paleontologists will jacket the fossil with plaster and take it into a laboratory to fully remove it from the rock. Never, never, never do we do such detailed preparation in the field. The specimens will be ruined, if not by people walking on them (or helicopters landing nearby), but by the elements. It takes time, sometimes years, to get a fossil out of the ground. The more that remains encased in rock, the better.
Seismic: Not that I fully understand how seismic works, but I'm certain that a single shotgun blast isn't going to yield an image by which a paleontologist can recognize the half-moon shape of the dinosaur's wrist bone.
The fossil itself: Y'know, sometimes a complete fossil is found in its death pose, but usually even then some of the bones are out of place. To find as single complete specimen is unusual. To find two, both laid out perfectly, is so unlikely that I could not suspend reality to accept that part of the movie. And something as big as the 'Velociraptor' that they portray would almost certainly have damage or distortion somewhere.
Science and funding: Apparently Hammond, the creator of Jurassic Park, has been providing Drs. Grant and Sadler with $50,000 a year to fund their research. That might seem like a lot of money to you, but in reality, that's chump change. Just saying. Research efforts like those are expensive, especially if Sadler and Grant are getting any salary from it. I've submitted some 'cheap' grant requests for less than $50,000 per year. That covers my research expenses and only two months of my salary. Most programs need much more than that.
THE DINOSAURS: They did pretty good with the dinosaurs, all things considered. I'm glad that Spielberg isn't going to go all "George Lucas" on these movies and fix them up though…
Velociraptors and the relationship with birds: What Alan Grant in the movie says about the relationship between birds and dinosaurs is mostly true. Most of us in the paleontological community refer to birds as 'avian dinosaurs.' We have chickens and I am always calling them my little dinosaurs. What Dr. Grant says about 'raptor' meaning 'bird' may also be true, but let's face it, that's not evidence that birds and dinosaurs are related. If I start calling a donut a banana, does that make the donut fruit? No. (Besides, 'raptor' actually means 'thief'!)
Speaking of Velociraptors: The true 'Velociraptor' is a little animal that would stand about hip-high on most adult people. The veolociraptors in the movie were enlarged to make them look cooler. When Spielberg came up with this, paleontologists said, 'Well, ok. Sure. It's a movie. Go ahead,' basically accepting that this was going to be wrong. But at about the time that the movie came out, a huge new species related to Velociraptor was discovered in Utah, and was named Utahraptor. The velociraptors of the movie could be Utahraptors in real life. And the paleontology community breathed a collective sigh.
Inferences about behavior: Velociraptors hunt in packs. Gallimimus ran in herds. This is arm-waving. This is literary license. This is not something that can be inferred directly from the fossil record. We don't know exactly how these animals interacted. We don't know how they behaved. We can observe modern birds and assume that dinosaurs might have behaved in similar ways. Nothing more.
Inferences about perception in dinosaurs: Apparently, Tyrannosaurus can't see you unless you move. Dr. Grant knew this somehow. OK, we don't actually know this. There are animals that can only see objects if they move quickly, like some frogs, but we can't possibly know if this is true with dinosaurs. By the same token, we don't know if velociraptors can stare you down, either. If we're going to base this inference on their nearest living relatives, however, I'm pretty sure that T. rex could see you even if you were sitting still.
Modern understanding of dinosaurs: If this movie were to be made today, the velociraptors would most likely be completely covered with feathers. The T. Rex would also have feathers, probably. Any of the theropods would be feathered. Now, I'm not sure about the sauropods – the big Brachiosaurus – I'm sure someone else knows.
By the way, Dilophosaurus: Dilophosaurus does not have the neck frill that is shown in the movie, and it didn't spit poison, either.
Cloning: So this is biology, and a bit of chemistry. 1) DNA wouldn't last. Over 65 million years it would degrade so much that it would be unrecognizable. 2) Frog DNA? If they were clever, they'd use bird DNA. Seriously, a FROG?! Now if we really wanted dinosaurs, what we need to do is study the anatomy of dinosaurs and compare that with birds as adults and embryonically. Then let's try to make the embryo of modern birds develop to make a dinosaur-like skeleton and see what we get… This, I think, is within the realm of possibility, but the 'dinosaur' we'd get won't be any dinosaur that ever walked the Earth!
Females turning male: Actually, such things are possible. In many vertebrates, the temperature of the eggs during development will determine the sex of the young when they're born. Equally possible, though not mentioned, is parthenogenesis, wherein a female simply gives birth or lays eggs without fertilization. The babies are clones of the mother. This is known in many species of lizards. It's a stretch, but it's possible.
I could go on. There are several little details in the movie that I found annoying, but these are the big ones (or so I think). I've got other movies to watch and review…
Friday Headlines, January 4, 2013
The Quadrantids are a meteor shower that happens in January. They seem to come from an area in the sky between the handle of the Big Dipper and the head of the constellation Draco.
Alas, by the time this is published, the peak will be just past, having been Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Plus, the waning moon (and all the snow where I live) make it difficult to actually observe this meteor shower.
In the Pilbara region of Australia are some of the planet's oldest rocks, dating back to about 3.4 billion years ago. In these rocks are various evidences for ancient life, including textures (like minute strands connecting to each other in a network similar to that of modern bacteria) and geochemical tracers. Yes, folks, there be isotopes there!
Metabolic processes in bacteria result in an isotopic signature wherein there is more 'light' carbon (carbon-12) than 'heavy' carbon (carbon-13) than would be expected for a limestone that formed without bacteria present.
What's important is that finding these bacteria in such ancient rocks might suggest that the Earth's atmosphere had oxygen in it a billion years before we previously thought. Oxygen in the atmosphere has had a profound effect on both the evolution of life on Earth and as well as it's geologic history.
This is just cool. Who knew snowflakes were so complex? In light of all the snow we've received of late, this gives me something to look for in the next snowfall.

It is very crucial day for the Mega Princess Nihraika Konidela, the daughter of Naga Babu and niece of Megastar Chiranjeevi and Power Star Pawan Kalyan as her romantic entertainer drama "Oka Manasu' is hitting the theaters across the twin cities and in overseas today on 24th June. Mega fans also extended their support for the Niharika. Naga Shourya is playing the lead role. It is directed by Rama Raju and produced by Madhura Sreedhar and TV9. Let's see the story line:
Story: It is a love story between two young professional a doctor Sandhya (Niharika) and a Politician Surya (Naga Shourya). Rao Ramesh is the father of Surya and he is a small time politician. His ambition is to make his son, MLA. Surya is vey obedient son who can go to any extent for his father. Sandhya falls in the love of Surya. One day Surya kidnaps a relative of home minster who is Dalit and later he went to jail under SC St atrocity act. After getting temporary bail, he comes out of the jail and start living with Sandhya. Sudden twists arises in the story and at this situation, Surya faced a tough challenge to choose between Sandhya or his father. What will be the decision of Surya? form the rest of the story.
Plus Points:
- Presence of Niharika and Naga Shourya
- Climax
- Cinematography
- Music
Negative Points:
- Slow Narration
- Lack of entertainment ingredients
- Ineffective dialogues
- Comedy
- Editing
- Poor execution
Performance: Naga Shourya performed well and stole the show of the movie in the role of obedient son and adoring lover. Niharika has delivered her best and looked very pretty. She carried her role effortlessly. She has a commanding performance and she is authoritative in every frame, but the slow screenplay spoils the entertainment level. The love track is handled between the lead pair is a very boring manner. Actress Pragathi is the role of Niharika's mother has done good job. Rao Ramesh as a caring and lovable father has done good job. Vennela Kishore, Avasarala Srinivas became fail to give much laugh to the audiences and overacts the part given to them. Rest of the cast are just fillers.
Technical: The background music and song of the movie are good. The editing is below par. Especially during the first half of the movie, the trimming should have been crisper. Production value is low. The supporting stars are completely out of syn. The comedy element could have been even better. Dialogues should have been sharper to create an impact. Lots of scenes are not linear. The cinematography work of the movie is good and the cameraman captured the beauty of Vizag and Araku in a very innovative way. The director fails to make a proper screenplay. There is no engaging screenplay and audience are completely crestfallen. Few scenes are so silly too. Love track between Niharika and Naga Shourya are not executed well.
Analysis: The first debut of Niharika is disappointing. Overall the movie is simple, clean and matured love story but the narration of the movie is very slow and painful. The first half of the movie is completely disaster. The conversation between the lead pair Naga Shourya and Niharika are not effective and all the dialogues in the movie are senseless. The first half of the movie is very slow but climax is heart touching and impressive. The relation between father and son are executed very well. There are lacks of entertainment quotient in the movie. Audiences did not get any watching thing in the movie. The movie fails due to slow narration. There is no engaging screenplay and audience will definitely be disappointed. The script also has lots of loopholes and there is a complete loss of logic in various scene.

Panache Response:
We were sorry to hear that the fit of this bra was not working for you! We get rave reviews from all sizes of women on this bra and we don't think you need to have implants to make it work, however, if you would like something with a more minimal look we would suggest trying style 3376
which is the same bra but without the lace or alternatively our newest Porcelain bra, Porcelain Viva which has pretty detailing on the cups while still smooth. Porcelain Viva also offers completely adjustable straps which will offer you a more versatile fit. As always, please be sure that you are following HerRoom's fit guide specifically for Panache product to ensure proper fit.
Peggy from CA
HerRoom Response:All your comments point to you being a 30F. Your band and cups are too large.
alethia from northfield
Panache Response:
T-shirt bras tend to fit shallower than other styles, so always best to go up a cup. In your case, we recommend going up to a 30DD for a comfortable fit.

text: The High Line is an old freight rail line repurposed into a public park set above the streets of Manhattan's West Side. I think it sets a wonderful standard for reconfiguring urban spaces in creative, constructive ways. Instead of tearing down old structures, why not give them a new lease of life while retaining their historic value? It's great that the marks of a railroad e.g. converging tracks, bars on the tracks and side railings are preserved to some degree, as a reminder of its heritage and for interesting aesthetic effects. The gritty, industrial feel of the original structure and its surroundings (the historic Meatpacking district) is harmonized with natural elements like plants, water and grass patches for a truly unique urban experience.

It has been a few months since I posted here. I broke my ankle in May, had surgery on it, and I can now run again which is important for me. My wife is on her third course of chemotherapy for stage 4 colon cancer with mets to liver and abdominal wall. She was diagnosed almost 2 years ago; it has been a journey for both of us.
Helps to share, thank you.
Oct 03, 2009 - 1:42 pm
I can relate to the tears you have David. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't end up walking into a room by myself and letting the tears flow.
It's so true that people don't have a clue what our journey is like until they themselves travel this path.
This process with my husband is the most difficult I have even endured and most times I feel so very much alone. I watch my friends (or thought they were) go about their normal lives and something inside of me resents it although I am clearly aware my feelings are just selfish ones.
Oct 03, 2009 - 3:21 pm
yup, they can not possibly know and don't want too. best bet is with those who understand what you are going through. so sorry, don't be embarrassed of your tears, they are important, share them with your wife and loved ones, it is important for them to know how much you care. did that with my husband who is suffering from parkinson's and stabilized brain cancer and it touched him deeply.
Oct 03, 2009 - 11:53 pm
Yes, I can relate to how thin nerves can be and how close to the surface tears can be.
Oct 04, 2009 - 1:09 am
My husband has been fighting colon cancer for 6 years and is now on hospice. I find that it's the little things that set me off. I think I am handling things really well. Then wam I'm fighting tears and anger over some silly thing. The stress just has to come out sometimes. Many have never had to deal with cancer on a 24/7 basis. They don't understand. Tears are a good release at times. Don't feel that it's a sign of weakness. Those of us who have been in this fight for a time are stronger than we we ever thought we could be. Fay
Oct 04, 2009 - 1:43 pm
Sounds like things have built up for you and all you needed was one more stress to tip the table. I was the one who had cancer years back and my ex was in your position as my caregiver. He seemed fine all through the treatments but after I was on my way back to a 'normal' state he totally broke down and had a nervous breakdown. I am telling you this because sometimes caregivers don't realize how much stress is actually building inside through the cancer journey.
You might want to look into seeing someone about the breakdown at work. I know most men don't like the idea of seeing psychologists or similar professionals but like when the rest of our body needs help we get that help don't we? Don't let your emotions pile up too much because your family needs you and you have to take care of yourself too.
You and yours are in my prayers. Blessings, Bluerose
Oct 05, 2009 - 12:42 pm
Thank you all for your kind and honest responses.
I forget how tired I am. I was exhausted that day. For some reason when this person got in my face, it took me back to 3rd grade and a teacher doing that to me, way back in 1963! I could have complained about the boundary issue but at this point I choose to pick my battles so to speak.
I feel better today. Ran 4 miles yesterday! Felt great!
Oct 05, 2009 - 9:28 pm
yes we have all been then as carers. Pushed ourselves too far. I used to be so proud of the fact that I am good in a crisis, one everyone could depend on to be there and to keep going whilst there were things to be done. Last week I had a mini meltdown. I sat at my desk at work and realised I had nothing left in the tank. Since hubby was diagnosed in Mar 09 with GBM IV, I have continued working full time, fitting in all his appointments as well and when he has been in hospital, other than the days he was in the emergency dept or the ICU, I was back at work. I would go to the hospital in the morning and have breakfast with him, then go to work and then be back by his side after work, spend 2 hours with him and then head home to our 2 little girls. Anyway, I saw my GP and she gave me a week off work. My first day off I crashed (quite royally as well :)). For the next 4 days just the thought of having to get dressed and get out of the house had me in tears. I did get out of the house but I was a mess. I saw my counsellor and it became obvious that I had (again) forgotten all about my welfare. Its going to be hard but I have told my family that I will be allocating 3 hours every week just to me. They can have the other 165 :)

while you are feeling better I would look around for someone to talk to professionally about the stress of the situation with your wife's illness. Now don't run away because I am suggesting seeing someone like a grief counsellor, sometimes men especially have a hard time with this kind of help, but grief counsellors are wonderful and can really help you through the process. Also just in general seeing that an episode in 1963 brought back feelings that resulted in you breaking down I am thinking you may have other issues stored up that you might just want to unload. Burying things for years and years will build up and blow at some point if you don't address them earlier, especially in times of extreme stress in the future as you are going through now.
Think seriously about looking for someone to talk with on a regular basis, plus this board as well of course, but professional guidance included may be just what makes all the difference in the world for you and yours.
Take care David.
Blessings, Bluerose

people have no idea what you're going thru unless they've been there too. My s---head brother thought there was humor in a colostomy while I was abed with incredible post-op pain last month. You might find this web site encouraging, as I do, since its so hard to get by each minute of each hour of each day. All I have is my girlfriend--could not survive this on my own.Too bad you still need/have to work.No way Icould have put up with my job during the chemo/rad/surgery/ I've been thru and the chemo yet to come...
Dec 24, 2009 - 10:15 pm
are sometimes not aware that bigger and more important things matter in life. For that coworker of yours, i can completely relate but not the extent that I was yelled at or anything. I remember when my mom was undergoing chemo..i sometimes stay a little later to help and come to work the next day...other people are totally unaware and they only sometimes see the good for "them"..hopefully your coworker realizes that it is JUST AN EXCEL...i am an accountant so now if i have problems, i still deal with them but i'm like u, i try to really put it in perspective that its JUST WORK...have a great xmss and hope the best for you and your wife...and next time just go CTRL + A, DEL, CTRL S on his spreadsheet..:-)
Dec 25, 2009 - 7:21 am
I would lash out at people, including my boss, at the time, for what I perceived as pettiness or insensitivity. Your reactions are understandable and very human. Be patient with yourself and, as far as others, "Forgive them, for they know not what they do".
Love, Courage, and Peace of Mind!
Dec 25, 2009 - 1:32 pm
... as you just experienced at work. So many caregivers take on so much when their spouse or partner and often forget themselves - hold it all in so as not to upset their mate with cancer or their family but in so doing they forget that they have needs too, the biggest need is to get it all out. I am very glad you found this site as you will see that many on here have had the same thing happen to them. My marriage after cancer, many years after, ended in divorce but during my treatment years my spouse did the same thing as you did - tried to do too much and when I was recouperating, just starting to, he saw I was getting a bit better and that is when he fell totally apart. Was diagnosed with clinical depression and had a nervous breakdown for holding it all in.
Caregivers as many on here well know are like angels but we are human angels and need the rest and help as well and I hope that maybe this incident at work might alert you to that fact. Grief therapy is very helpful to many on here, grief therapy isn't only for losing a loved one but for grieving over the loss of many things including a partner's health and how that affects the whole family including the caretaker.
I hope you take care of yourself now so that this doesn't go to far as it did for my ex. You will be better able to help your spouse if you are strong yourself and that means taking care of you too.
Hope 2010 brings better health for your spouse and for you too. Blessings, Blue

Im someone who has let his tears stream when ever my heart is touched, overjoyed, in mourning or saddened. The song called "Born Free" from 1966 is how my tears respond to the world around me. This world can be insatiable in its demands, harsh like a stubborn glacier, and merciless by stealing our loved ones too soon. No person, disease, or event has the power to intimidate our tears from appearing in our eyes or streaming down our cheeks, with or without the eyes from others seeing us. Below is a poem I did tonight as a way to share and care. By the way, I was not alone; I had my tears very close by
Tears are not weakness
Tears are lonesome when in hiding
Tears show their strength in many ways
Tears and courage grew up together

It's tough to go about "business as usual" when someone you love is experiencing something so serious.
I wish strength for you in these difficult times.
Jun 15, 2010 - 4:49 pm
Hi David, I was so moved by your story. I never allowed myself to cry - thought it was weak. BUT now (caring for my mother with lung cancer) the best thing I can do for myself is just let myself feel the pain and cry. I've found that the people around me who care understand and support me. Cry when you need to and be sure to take care of you.
Jun 20, 2010 - 3:23 am
you are so right no one knows what we go through on a daily basis..when i was caring for my mom before she passed...it was the worst thing to see someone you love so much suffering...i cried every night when i would put my mom to sleep so she wouldn't see me cry...i wanted to be so strong for her..but inside i was dieing along with her...and when she passed i feel like my heart and soul went with her....its an indescribable pain when someone has cancer especially the kind my mom had which was GBM brain cancer...it affects not just your body but also your neurological functions....just know that you are not the only one feeling this way...everyone on this site is going through similar situations you are not alone....i hope things get better for you..
Jun 22, 2010 - 12:10 pm
First of all, let me just say that your co-worker is a complete jacka** for screaming at you. God forbid he/she ever has to deal with this curse himself/herself one day. You are 100% correct when you say people don't have a clue unless they experience it, but even that is no reason for what your co-worker did. You have every right to cry, cry all you want, whenever you want. You have to allow yourself to grieve, it's not like a light switch you turn on & off. It's with you always, every day. If you need to get psychological help, but don't feel guilty. All the best to you & your wife.
Aug 23, 2010 - 6:35 pm
Yes, I have experienced the same thing! I am a remote employee and work from home. I avoid crying at all costs as I am afraid I will start and not be able to stop.
The last couple of months my husband has been on a new chemo regimen that he is not tolerating very well. In an effort to try and manage the nausea/vomiting issue I set an alarm every 3 hours so I will not forget to give him one of 4 alternating anti-nausea medications and try to coax him to eat/drink something. This can go on 24/7 for days between chemo cycles. In the meantime I am working 65 to 70 hour weeks. Last week, during a meeting that I was running several of my co-workers were rather rude. I would have normally been polite about it, but I just could not take it anymore and was not very polite or professional. When I hung up the phone I was angry until I rcvd an email from my son in Afghanistan.....and that is when the tears started.
Yep, angry because I am a nurse and not able to fix my husband or at least make him more comfortable and then the tears start. I am still working these crazy hours so we can cover all the co-pays and bills instead of spending time with him. I feel like a 2 year old about to have a temper tantrum. Life is just not fair!
Aug 23, 2010 - 10:00 pm
How can anyone ever know what it's like unless you're in the midst of it.
I'm so sorry about your wife and I know how hard it is for you. My sister was my caregiver during my cancer treatments and surgeries and although she always reflected a positive attitude, I know she broke down several times.
It's a hard and scary thing.
I hope this person realized what you are going through.
Kind regards,
Aug 24, 2010 - 1:07 pm
As a caution to you and to others: it is very important to deal with emotions, good and bad, as they come up and not shelve to work with them later. The problem is, you may never get the opportunity to deal with them at what you think is a plausible future date.
I know from personal experience, unfortunately. On May 25, my brother passed away after a month long stay at the hospital, during which I was one of two primary caregivers. The same morning, my husband had an MRI. The day after my brother's death, we found out my husband had throat cancer. I was not able to grieve my brother's death because, as we all know, cancer overload kicks into high gear almost immediately and all my attention had to shift to my husband. While it doesn't equate for some people, a month later I lost my fourteen year old dog who slept next to me every night. I don't think she actually knew she was a dog and not a child...I certainly never told her!
I know I still have not grieved my brother's death properly and in some ways it has caused me to grieve the entire time my husband has been undergoing treatment: not a healthy thing.
Acknowledge and deal with your emotions - take time to understand what the anger, resentment or sadness you may be feeling actually means and what you can do about it.
You have to stay healthy - for yourself and for your patient.
Aug 29, 2010 - 1:03 pm
I can double endorse what Noellesmom is saying. I had a series of traumatic life changing events happen to me one after the other which resulted in a breakdown.
1. My mum had terminal cancer & I nursed her at home.
The only way I could cope with all of this was to ignore it and pretend it would be OK. Sometimes I wouyld think to myself "I'll deal with those feelings later" But I never did. Like Noellesmom I didn't have time to grieve properly to them before another happened. I had a complete breakdown and am on medication & receiving counselling. So please please put yourself and any grief first so you can prevent what happened to me. Tina
Aug 31, 2010 - 12:16 pm
Hey David-
I think when you come close to death and cancer it gives all of us a perspective on life that others don't see. In someways it entitles us to see the things that really matter and in other ways it robs us from the simple ignorance that spreadsheets are important.
I firmly believe that strength means allowing yourself to be human and weak.
I think as men we do feel more vulnerable and out of role when we cry. I know I do. But you are fighting this battle with your wife and I doubt she sees you vulnerable. I am willing to bet she sees you as her strength and hero.

The most important thing in life is the love of a family member or friend. You are going to cry, whether it is the Cancer driving you crazy, if it is the depresiion of losing one's life. You must understand there are small amount of Cancer cells in each and every one of us; they may lie domant or come to a negative effect on one's health; you have to live for each day as though it may be your last. If you see the light of the net day, you are ok.
Cry if you must but pray to GOD for healing. He is the only reason to live!
Jan 17, 2013 - 12:04 pm
You are dealing with alot of stress with your wife. Don't they realize this at work? Maybe you could take some time off to try and relax a little. I only went through dealing with this for 2 months before my husband passed away in 2010. Lost alot of weight & also almost had a breakdown. It isn't easy trying to be strong & no matter how hard you try, some days are going to suck. Hang in there & hope your wife does better. Be strong!! "Carole"

This is an excellent product and found them to be stronger than I expected.
I'm sure we will be ordering more in the future.
Posted by Deb on 8th Sep 2016
I buy a lot of bulk items that come in plastic bags like beans, rice, etc., but on more than one occasion, I've had unwanted spills and messes and i don't like using plastic bags. These caps fit my mason jars that I have in my basement. As soon as I buy something, it goes from the bag into the jar. The caps are a good plastic and fda safe so that is important to me.

Transition Scotland's (TS) 2016 annual gathering was held on September 10th and 11th. This year it was hosted by Transition Black Isle in the beautiful village of Cromarty. Based at the Old Brewery run by Cromarty Arts Trust, we ventured firstly to the Cromarty Community Market which provided us with an excellent learning exchange around how to run community markets, as well as tasty local produce, plants, and crafts.
In the afternoon there was an Open Space discussion around different aspects of the question: "How can we, as a national movement, be more effective in facilitating a move to a low-impact lifestyle?". It was followed by a delicious pot-luck dinner and plenty of chat and getting to know each other - as always - probably the most important part of the weekend!
The Sunday was spent walking around Cromarty, learning more about the local history of how the area around the Cromarty Firth had gone through its own transition from crofting, fishing, hemp production, brewing, sea-borne trading, oil rig construction and now looking over to Nigg where wind turbines are being constructed. . This provided us with time for informal brainstorms giving birth to exciting future ideas and projects which may be a part of Cromarty's future. Who knows....
Reflections from visitors and TBI'ers.
Transition Scotland Get-Together
10-11 September
Cromarty Old Brewery
Join us to catch up, share stories and learning, and re-inspire the vision of a Scotland in Transition to a low carbon, resilient country. Hear about the budding Transition Scotland national Hub – and get involved.
Representatives of any of the Scottish Transition groups are invited, together with anyone else who is interested in our agenda for strong communities working to a more sustainable future.
This will be a family-friendly event with lots to do for kids and partners.
This event is FREE, but you'll need to book your own accommodation - B&B at reasonable rates is available at the Old Brewery itself, or there are other options, see below.
Sign up here.
More Information
Cromarty is a beautiful historic village at the eastern tip of the Black Isle. Attractions include Hugh Miller's birthplace museum, beach and hill walks, and wildlife-watching boat trips. There are buses to the village from Inverness.
Saturday 10th
11am – 2pm
Visit to Cromarty Community Market - this is one of 2 monthly community markets run by Transition Black Isle. Lunch is available at the market – or for those who prefer to have a look around Cromarty, there are other cafes in the village – and it's hard to beat a picnic on the beach if it's sunny!
2.30 – 5.30pm
Open Space discussion – share experiences and develop ideas for the future. To be held in the Old Brewery, 10 minutes' walk from the market.
Pot luck dinner – please bring something to share.
Sunday 11th
Ad hoc activities and chat – maybe visit Fortrose for dolphin watching (optimum time around 4.00 p.m), fun on the beach, visit Rosemarkie beach café, hire bikes, sight-seeing in Cromarty and Fortrose.
The Old Brewery
B&B costs £35/ adult, £20/ child under 12, sharing room with parent(s). There are single, twin, double and triple rooms available.
Fortrose Bay Campsite
The campsite is about 15 minutes' drive from Cromarty (there are buses, but the last one on Saturday leaves quite early). See their website for prices and other details.
Cromarty Links
Campervans frequently stop overnight on Cromarty Links – just inland from the beach. A great informal location, but there are no facilities.
If all else fails…
TBI members may be able to offer accommodation! Contact Martin Sherring at TBI.

New Transition Scotland Website
Hi folks. Welcome to our new website on TRANSITION.SCOT
We've taken the decision to switch to a more modern and free web service while we get established as a new official hub. At the same time we hope to improve the content and to add extra features. Our Front page will be our Blog and will contain stories that are relevant to transition'ers in Scotland. We've opted to call groups 'trees' in our Transition woodland a bit like the model created by Transition Portugal. People connected to transition are our 'bees' buzzing around and helping with pollination of change.
Link to follow... please use the contact form in the interim.

Business: Letting us in on the big secret to success in sales
To Sell is Human By Daniel Pink
DANIEL Pink knows something about sales. Two of his earlier books, after all, have been bestsellers. His latest is intended to let the rest of us in on the secret.
And he succeeds well enough. Mr Pink, whose works include 'Drive' and 'A Whole New Mind', is one of those amiable writers who artfully blends anecdotes, insights and studies from the social sciences into a frothy blend of utility and entertainment.
His new book, 'To Sell Is Human', follows this reliable recipe, complete with a reference to the Prisoner's Dilemma, a staple hypothetical without which no such work would be complete.
Mr Pink's main message is that we're all in sales now. One in nine Americans, and a comparable proportion of workers in other countries, is directly employed in selling.
Yet that's only the beginning; the rest of us also spend a huge proportion of our time trying to talk people into things. Mr Pink says that it's all sales, so we'd better get good at it. His other point is that today's selling landscape has changed radically.
The first point – that we're all in sales – is valid, but it's not as new as he seems to think. None other than Adam Smith observed that, as a result of capitalism, everyone "becomes in some measure a merchant". That was in 'An Inquiry Into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations', which first appeared in 1776.
Changing nature
But as to the changing nature of sales, Mr Pink is on to something. He observes that the internet has swept away much of the information advantage previously enjoyed by sales people.
In place of the time-honoured ABCs of selling – Always Be Closing – Mr Pink suggests the New Age-sounding Attunement, Buoyancy and Clarity.
Sellers, he says, must focus on a buyer's needs – and not just the ones the customer knows about, but ones customers haven't even realised they had.
Effective selling means not just problem-solving, but problem-finding. It means not exploiting, but serving.
Like most of its Malcolm Gladwell-inspired brethren, this short book is a little too long. But the time spent with the last active Fuller Brush Man is a joy, and it's fun to read about how Elisha Otis gave the world's greatest elevator pitch – by cutting the cable on an elevator with himself in it to prove his version was fail-safe.

Unanswered: Import Large Text File Up to Certain Line or Character Number
I was wondering how to import a large .html file into SQL up to a certain line number or number of characters. Im assuming I need a BLOB variable, but other than that how might I do this? Further, i'd like to chop it down based on keywords within the lines imported, then perhaps out put it to a new text file. Any ideas?
Regex is failing in C# because the file is too large.

Let's begin this month's column by reviewing last month's final point.
What should I eliminate for my child to be healthier?
Eliminating processed food would be one of the most healthy choices you could ever make. Now, I didn't say it would be easy, but it's certainly simple.
Eating foods that are as close to nature as possible like fresh fruits and vegetables will benefit you and your child in almost unimaginably wonderful ways.
How can I accomplish this without a rebellion?
The first tip in this area has to do with the TV. Remember those 13,000 food ads mentioned in the first newsletter? Those ads are convincing your child to want (even if it's disguised as "need") the items advertised.
But, if the TV has been turned off for a while so you both can do the cross lateral activities, life will be easier.
By not being bombarded with those advertisements (remember that CANDY stands for Continually Advertised Nutritionally Deficient Yummies) your child might be more willing to try something healthier.
Sounds good, how do I actually begin?
The first thing to do is to use up what you have that's unhealthy or processed (I am not unrealistic enough to think that you would just throw away what you have but if you want to do that, it's a quick way to get going).
The next step is to avoid buying any more of the unhealthy stuff.
One technique is to shop the outside aisles instead of the middle which usually has the more processed foods.
In order to purchase only healthy foods, you may need to shop alone instead of with your children. Then the whining for the processed foods will be at home and you won't give in just because people are listening.
Choose organic fruits and veggies so that your move towards better health isn't sabotaged by the pesticides in non-organic foods.
Using a list is important here too. In order to have a list, though, you need to plan what you are going to have to eat and then plan what you need.
Once you get home with the fruits and veggies, be sure to use a fruit and vegetable rinse on them and dry them before putting them into the refrigerator. The reasoning behind this is: if the fruit is ready to eat, it's easier to get the child to eat it. Youngsters are used to "fast" food, so they need those snacks to be fast and having to stop to wash the food will make them less likely to choose it.
Having the fruit or veggies attractively arranged helps also. Fruit that can last outside the refrigerator can be put into a lovely bowl on the table. It serves as both a decoration and a quick fix for the hunger pangs of the afternoon.
Veggies can be cut up and put into attractive containers in the refrigerator for more quick munching. Those same veggies, cut a little smaller, can also serve as toppings for salads at lunch time.
One idea is to purchase a plastic bin of organic spinach and one of organic spring mix. After washing and drying them, just combine them and put them into individual containers that are the correct size for one lunch. A quick lunch is then made by putting the spinach mix, several small containers of celery, grape tomatoes, red bell peppers, cauliflower and whatever else you want into the lunch bag. Additional toppings include yellow raisins, pecans, sunflower seeds, and croutons. Just put your favorite healthy light salad dressing into the lunch bag and you have a lunch that is filling, yet healthy.
