Low Blood Pressure (Hypotension)
Topic Overview
What is low blood pressure?
Low blood pressure means that your blood pressure is lower than normal. Another name for low blood pressure is hypotension (say "hy-poh-TEN-shun").
In most healthy adults, low blood pressure does not cause problems or symptoms. In fact, it may be normal for you. For example, people who exercise regularly often have lower blood pressure than people who are not as fit.
But if your blood pressure drops suddenly or causes symptoms like dizziness or fainting, it is too low. It can cause Reference shock Opens New Window. Shock can be dangerous if it is not treated right away.
Blood pressure is a measure of how hard the blood pushes against the walls of your arteries as it moves through your body. Blood pressure consists of two numbers: Reference systolic and diastolic Opens New Window.
- The systolic (higher) number shows how hard the blood pushes when the heart is pumping.
- The diastolic (lower) number shows how hard the blood pushes between heartbeats, when the heart is relaxed and filling with blood.
Someone with a systolic pressure of 120 and a diastolic pressure of 80 has a blood pressure of 120/80, or "120 over 80." Normal blood pressure is lower than 120/80.
Low blood pressure does not have a specific number where it is too low. Most doctors consider blood pressure to be too low when it causes symptoms or drops suddenly. In general, low blood pressure symptoms happen when blood pressure is less than 90/60.
What causes low blood pressure?
Some of the causes of low blood pressure include:
- Getting up after you sit or lie down. This can cause a quick drop in blood pressure called Reference orthostatic hypotension Opens New Window.
- Standing for a long time.
- Not drinking enough fluids (Reference dehydration Opens New Window).
- Medicines, such as high blood pressure medicine or other heart medicines.
- Health problems such as thyroid disease, severe infection, bleeding in the intestines, or heart problems.
- Trauma, such as major bleeding or severe burns.
What are the symptoms?
Many people with low blood pressure don't have any symptoms.
Symptoms to watch for include:
- Feeling dizzy, lightheaded, or faint.
- Having a fast or irregular heartbeat.
- Feeling sick to your stomach or vomiting.
- Feeling more thirsty than usual.
- Having blurry vision.
- Feeling weak.
- Being confused.
- Being tired.
- Having cold, clammy skin.
- Breathing very fast.
- Having black, tarry stools.
- Having a fever.
If you have symptoms of low blood pressure, especially dizziness or fainting, call your doctor.
Watch for symptoms of low blood pressure. Tell your doctor when the symptoms happen so he or she can treat them.
How is low blood pressure diagnosed?
Often people learn that they have low blood pressure when their doctor checks it. Or you may find that you have low blood pressure when you check it at home.
To check for the causes of your low blood pressure, your doctor will ask about your past health, your symptoms, and the medicines you take. He or she will do a physical exam and may do other tests. Your doctor may check for another health problem that could be causing your low blood pressure.
Will your doctor treat low blood pressure?
You will likely get treated for low blood pressure only if it is causing symptoms or if your blood pressure drops suddenly. Treatment depends on your symptoms, how severe they are, and the reasons for the low blood pressure.
Your doctor may have you:
- Add more salt to your diet.
- Get fluid through an Reference intravenous (IV) line Opens New Window if you are very dehydrated.
- Change or stop medicines that lower your blood pressure.
- Take medicine to treat the problem that is causing low blood pressure. For example, you may need antibiotics to treat infection or medicines to stop vomiting or diarrhea.
Be sure to talk with your doctor before you add more salt to your diet or make any changes in your medicines.
How can you prevent low blood pressure symptoms?
If you have orthostatic hypotension, your doctor may suggest that you try some simple ways to prevent symptoms like dizziness. For example, you can:
- Stand up slowly.
- Drink more water.
- Drink little or no alcohol.
- Limit or avoid caffeine.
- Wear compression stockings.
If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, sit down or lie down for a few minutes. Or you can sit down and put your head between your knees. This will help your blood pressure go back to normal and help your symptoms go away.

15 Things You Must Know About Elder Scrolls V
Believe it or not but the next Elder Scrolls game will be out this year, so we provide all the details you'll need to know about Skyrim and what it means for the fifth iteration to the series.
Combat has been massively overhauled in Skyrim.
The Combat
Dual-wielding in combat
Combat has been given a massive overhaul. For example, a bigger emphasis will be placed on dual-wielding in combat – you will be able to equip whatever you want in either hand. Fancy swinging two maces around instead of simply combining one with a shield? That's fine. Want to cast two of the same spells at the same time? Now you're talking! Now, with dual-wield, you will be able to fully-realise the character that you want to be, and play in the way that you prefer. It also means that those lefties will never be disregarded again.
Changes to levelling up
For starters, there has been an adaptation of how long levelling up takes. According to Todd Howard reaching level 50 will take just as much time as previous games would take to get to 25, but with the implementation of Fallout-style Perks, levelling up will be much more compulsive than ever before. And don't think you'll be able to exploit your level by casting the same spells over and over either, there are safeguards against that. "Now, with dual-wield, you will be able to fully-realise the character that you want to be."
In Elder Scrolls V there's no need to choose major and minor skills. Instead, whatever weapon, ability or magic you choose to use will level up alongside you. There are no pre-made classes with mandatory major/minor options; you build the class that you want. Skills will improve faster at first, meaning the lower ranks are less valuable to your overall level: in other words, concentrating on a select few characteristics will increase your level faster, while becoming a jack-of-all-trades will not.
Tweaks to combat
The radial weapon/ability choice menu has been ditched in favour of a custom menu, giving you access to all your preferred combat choices quickly and easily.
Other changes go into how the combat feels. By reducing the speed at which you can walk backwards you're forced into direct combat: no longer able to wildly swing your sword as you run backwards to stave off attackers. Combat will require much more participation from the player. No more cheap tactics!
Melee battles
Melee combat has always been the Achilles heel of the Elder Scrolls series. Where Morrowind and Oblivion enabled you to succeed with a constant barrage of attacks, Skyrim will have far more involving combat. As we already mentioned, there will be no more back-pedalling, so you'll have to stagger an opponent first to overwhelm their defence.
The old engine is beginning to show its age.
Dual-wield obviously affects melee the most, but interestingly there will be new finishing moves that are dependant on your weapon and the enemy you're fighting. This is far more interesting than the 'suddenly-floppy' ragdoll deaths of Elder Scrolls IV, and gives you a satisfying end to a battle.
Ranged combat
For those who prefer the bow, there are plenty of reasons for you to be excited too. Though the mechanics will remain largely unchanged, ranged combat is decidedly slower: it will take more time to pull the string back on a bow. But worry not – with the increased time comes extra damage. Even instant, one-hit kills are possible.
This all seems to make sense, too, confirming that this could be the most considered of all Elder Scrolls titles. No archer would continue to sling arrows when their attacker approaches, so it will be used as a long-range assault for clever scouts rather than performing the attack in a continual backwards run.
Changes to magic
For the most part, magic will remain unchanged – at least in the way you equip spells and cast them to bring your enemies down. Most importantly, however, is the removal of Mysticism as a school of magic. Many of the spells from this field have found their way into the remaining five others.
Nordic ruins will be spread throughout Skyrim.
As with melee combat, the use of magic is going to be affected massively by the new dual-wield feature, meaning players could simply do away with barbaric nature of swords and armour and race in with a fireball and an armour spell. Or, you know, just two fireballs.
The World
As a region of Tamriel, Skyrim's history is the most important to Elder Scrolls. It is the land that was first inhabited by humans – known now as the Nords – and where all human life on Tamriel began. The Nordic King, Ysgramor, drove out the elves in a war, and formed Skyrim in the process. Geographically Skyrim is in the northern area of the Tamriel map, meaning snow-topped mountains and frozen tundra, with a bit of volcanic action thrown into the mix for good measure. It's a lot like Iceland we reckon. Interestingly, Skyrim is smaller than Oblivion's Cyrodiil, and could therefore mean we'll be given a far more concise telling of the tale, rather than the vast open areas of Elder Scrolls.
Two centuries later
Skyrim is set 200 years after Oblivion, a major change for the Elder Scrolls series, where previous iterations usually followed a similar timeline and focussed on the bloodline of the King. That bloodline has now ended, and when a successor is chosen, a civil war erupts. This is likely to be a major part of the main story, with the player dealing with various factions, perhaps even choosing which to side with.
Dragons for the first time
The lore of Elder Scrolls tells us that dragons had long ago been cast away from the world, and held there by powerful magic. Now, though, they're back and – as you might expect – they're after vengeance. And these dragons won't be a rare sight, they will attack you and they will do so often. Battles with dragons in games have often been convoluted affairs, so we hope that the team at Bethesda make these fights as epic as they should be.
Get ready for Skyrim to steal your life.
Alduin – or 'World Eater' – is the closest thing to the king of dragons, and will no doubt be the final goal for player characters. As the title suggests, World Eater isn't here for a cup of tea, so the ever-present threat from the massive reptile will be made apparent throughout the game. As with normal dragons, we hope that these beasts are made as powerful and fearsome as they're supposed to be.
7,000 Steps
High Hrothgar is a settlement at the peak of the highest mountain in Skyrim, called the Throat of the World. It is told there are 7,000 steps leading to the top, and is home to the ancient Greybeards. Apparently, this mysterious clan plays an important part in the Skyrim story. Other towns and cities include Riften, Windhelm, Whiterun and Haafingar, the latter of which means 'solitude'.
There will also be a number of underground areas. We can only guess as to the extent of these areas, but considering the Nordic ruins and settlements in Skyrim, we expect there to be as much underground as there is above.
The Characters
In other words, you. In Skyrim, the Dragonborn are select group of people born with the inherent skill to slay dragons. And at the start of Skyrim, it's likely that the player character is the last remaining Dragonborn in Tamriel. As such, it's quite important that you concentrate on killing those
blasted dragons.
Underground caverns will lead to a variety of nasties.
As a Dragonborn, however, you'll also be able to learn unique abilities by absorbing the power of a dragon and learning its 'shout'. There will be over 20 dragon shouts, formed from applying three words of power. How do you learn these abilities? By killing dragons, of course.
Esbern of the Blades
The Blades are an ancient group of warriors, who also featured in Oblivion, sworn to defend the Dragonborn. As a Dragonborn, then, you'll need to learn to get comfortable with their company even though only a few of this elite group remain.
Esbern will be the player's mentor throughout the game, and one of the main NPCs you will interact with. Esbern is well-versed in the prophecies of the Elder Scrolls, and as such understands the disaster that is about to befall the world. If you've seen the teaser trailer, then the voice you hear is Esbern; so we look forward to hearing him speak a little more.
The Greybeards are a society of mysterious old men who live at High Hrothgar. Considering these guys are known for their knowledge of the dragons, and the power they wield, it's almost a given that these will be important fellas for the Dragonborn to meet. Something tells us they'll be key to training the player into beating an unbeatable battle.
We're hoping the new engine will make the memorable vistas even more exciting.
The Engine
Brand new
As you're no doubt already aware, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will be powered by a brand new engine, rather than the creaky old engine that Oblivion and Fallout 3 were built on. Very few visuals have been seen of the engine in action, but even those prove there is a whole new level of detail here.
Rethought UI
The HUD has been given an overhaul, doing away with the various bars and stats that have usually filled the screens of Elder Scrolls players. The option will no doubt be there for players if they prefer, but for those who just want to concentrate on whatever it is they're hunting, you can have a HUD-less mode in both first and third-person.

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is going
to benefit from an all-new
engine, and Bethesda has
detailed some of the
improvements we can expect
from the much-anticipated
fantasy RPG.
Dubbed the Creation Engine,
Skyrim's new powerhouse brings
with it a suite of new tools and
tricks that'll ensure this will be
Bethesda's most technically
impressive game to date.
"The big things for us were to
draw a lot of stuff in the
distance so we have a really
sophisticated level of detail,
more so than what we've had in
the past for how things stream
in and how detail gets added to
them as they get closer to the
camera," Bethesda Studio's
creative director Todd Howard
told Game Informer.
"Because our worlds are so big all
of the lighting has to be
dynamic," he said. "That's
something we had a little bit of in
the past with shadowing, but not
on everything. Now we have it on everything. It just makes the whole thing a lot more believable
when you're there."
The visual pass carries on to the
minutiae of Skyrim's world; as
it's set in a more Northern
region that Oblivion's Cyrodiil,
there'll be a more severe climate
and the Creation Engine is well-
equipped to deal with snow and
rock-faces, while the foliage
benefits from a bespoke engine
for Skyrim's trees.
The improvements stretch
beyond the visuals, and Skyrim's
AI also promises to be a step up.
The overhauled Radiant AI will
deliver more believable NPC
behaviour , with distinctive
personalities being played out in
the actions of Skyrim's
There'll also look more believable
than before thanks to the
implementation of Havok
Behavior. "I think we're the first
real big game to use it," boasted
Howard, before explaining what
the tech brings to the game.
New animations make the
characters much more lifelike,
and that has various
repercussions. "We definitely
have made a significant jump in how it plays [in third person
perspective]," said Howard,
before cryptically declining to comment whether the
technology could possibly be
applied to player mounts in the
Finally, Skyrim's new
technologies will also have an impact on the way the game plays out, having a bearing on player quests. "Traditionally in an assassination quest, we would pick someone of interest and have you assassinate them,"
Howard explained. "Now there is a template for an assassination
mission and the game can
conditionalize all the roles –
where it happens, under what conditions does it take place,who wants someone
assassinated, and who they
want assassinated. All this can be generated based on where the character is, who he's met.
They can conditionalize that
someone who you've done a
quest for before wants
someone assassinated, and the target could be someone with whom you've spent a lot of time before."
Skyrim is down for release on
November 11 on Xbox 360,
PlayStation 3 and PC
Inside Skyrim's Menu System Overhaul
SourceIn a game as large as the open world RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, comprehensive menus are a necessary evil. Though they may not be pretty, players need a way to easily manage items, review skills, and map out directions to their next dungeon crawls. The menus in Oblivion functioned, but they were essentially a cumbersome medieval equivalent to Excel documents. For the sequel, Bethesda is striving for a friendlier user interface.
Rather than refine the pre-existing menu system from Oblivion or Fallout 3, Bethesda decided to toss them on the scrap heap and develop a new, streamlined interface. Searching for inspiration, the team kept coming back to Apple, and for good reason. Over the last decade the company has revolutionized how consumers interact with software and hardware moreso than any other tech outfit.
You know in iTunes when you look at all your music you get to flip through it and look at the covers and it becomes tangible? game director Todd Howard asks. One of our goals was 'What if Apple made a fantasy game? How would this look?' It's very good at getting through lots of data quickly, which is always a struggle with our stuff.
Like in Oblivion, pressing the B or circle button opens up the menu system. Instead of returning you to the last page you visited as it did in Oblivion, Bethesda now presents you with a simple compass interface that offers four options.
Pressing right takes you to the inventory. The interface is a clean cascading menu system that separates items by type. Here players can browse through weapons, armor, and other items they gather during their travel. Instead of relegating players to looking at an items name and stat attributes, each possession is a tangible three dimensional item with its own unique qualities. Thousands of items are fully rendered, and players can zoom in on or rotate each one. You can even get an up close view of the flowers and roots you pick for alchemy. It becomes an interesting time sink, Howard says. You can look at and explore every single thing you pick up.
Pressing left from the compass gives players access to the full list of magical items, complete with breakdowns of how the spells operate. As we mentioned in the Building Better Combat story, the world of Skyrim features over 85 spells, many of which can be used in a variety of ways.
In Oblivion, players could map eight items from their inventory onto the D-pad for easy access. Given the new two-handed approach to combat in Skyrim, Bethesda didnt want to limit players to eight items. Instead, pressing up on the D-pad pauses the action and pulls up a favorites menu. Anything from your spell library or item inventory can be bookmarked to the favorites menu with the press of a button. How many items appear on that menu is up to each player. Bethesda isnt placing a cap on the number of favorite items, so theoretically you could muck it up with every single item you own. Though you can choose how many items appear, you cant determine the order; items and spells are listed alphabetically.
Pressing down in the compass menu pulls the camera perspective backward to reveal a huge topographical map of Skyrim. Here players can zoom around to explore the mountain peaks, valley streams, and snowy tundras that populate the northern lands. Pulling the camera as far away as possible gives you a great respect for the size of the game world. From the map view players can manage quest icons, plan their travel route, or access fast travel.
Finally, pressing up in the compass menu turns your gaze up toward the heavens. In previous games, astrology played a large role in character creation. Though Skyrim abandons the class structure in favor of a "you are what you play" philosophy, Bethesda is preserving the players ties to star signs.
Three prominent nebulae dominate the Skyrim heavens the thief, the warrior, and the mage. Each of these represents one of the three master skill sets. Each nebula houses six constellations, each of which represents a skill. As in Oblivion, every player starts out with the ability to use all 18 skills any player can use a two-handed weapon, try alchemy, or cast a destruction spell (provided you find or purchase one). As you use these skills in Skyrim, they will level up and contribute to driving your character's overall level higher.
Every time players rank up their overall level, they can choose a supplemental perk ability for one of the 18 skills. For instance, if you fight most of your battles with a mace, you may want to choose the perk that allows you to ignore armor while using the weapon. As in Fallout 3, several of the perks have their own leveling system as well, allowing you to choose them multiple times. Once you choose a perk, it lights up the corresponding star in the constellation, making it visible when looking up to the heavens while interacting in the world.
When you glance to the sky after youve played the game for a while, what youre seeing in the sky is different than what somebody else is seeing based on the constellations, Howard says.
I sooooooo wanna play this game right NAO!!!

New Skyrim Details Surface
An intrepid Bethesda forum-goer has posted a summary of a Skyrim preview from German magazine PC Games. Some of the details are even new.
The reported details are minor, but any Skyrim news is good news, right?
- The map is 3D, but you can't make notes on it
- Some dragons are friendly, at least to the point of holding conversations with the player
- Some level of economic simulation is in, with the prices of goods reflecting the state of the world
- Blowing wind will whip up the surface of bodies of water
- Lockpicking: still a minigame
- In addition to the five major cities, there will be eight or nine smaller settlements to visit
- You can buy houses again
- Children will appear in some form in-game
The report originally had a tidbit about planned Facebook integration, which was shot down by Bethesda marketing guy Pete Hines. Hines did not make any move to deny the rest of the report, so my guess for now is that it's legit. It's legit, see below.
No huge surprises here, though I'm curious how Bethesda is approaching the problem posed by the presence of children in the go-anywhere, do-anything world of The Elder Scrolls. If it were me, I'd probably go with "avenging god immediately lightning bolts your face off" as a solution to anyone who harms a child.
We've reached out to Bethesda for comment and will update this story with any new information. A Bethesda spokesperson has confirmed that the information is legit. Fans rejoice! I know you were all dying to know about lockpicking.
New Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim screens
Wooly mammoths
Bethesda has released two new shots from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
For any other game these two screens might seem a bit insignificant, but The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was recently voted CVG readers' 'Most Anticipated game of E3'.
The first screen features a menacing looking one-eyed fella staring into your soul, while the second shows off wooly mammoths roaming across a large, snow covered environment.
Bethesda game director Todd Howard has said Skyrim 'looks the same' when playing on PC and console and that the game "scales up in all the ways you'd expect".

I can't help but feel on more then one occassion that crossing at the intersection is more dangerous then the safety it is suppossed to provide. J walking is supposed to be dangerous but it seems sometimes like the lesser of two evils.

This lady is a dear friend of my daughter's nurse. I did not get the full story but either way it is tragic. AN odd twist to our family is that just about a few years ago my daughter's nurse at the time was running to the bus around 6 a.m on a dark Fall morning. She was struck and killed near Gersbecks. She had darted out in front of a car. The poor lady driving was really shook up. I think in most cases it is pedestrian error. People need to realize that they are not bigger than a moving car. You can be the best driver around but when someone darts in front of you, it is nearly impossible to avoid hitting them. The driver stayed on the scene. He/She took responsibility and stayed to aide the victim and police. Tragic for all. Very sad day for the victim and driver.

Google as an Income Play? Huh?What do you think would happen if Googles management announced tomorrow that its days of exceptional growth were coming to an end? That it anticipated its annual earnings growth would drop to a long term sustainable level of 10% a couple years from now and in response it planned to pay out at least 30% of its earnings in the form of a dividend similar to Microsoft. In this case study, we demonstrate the importance of analyzing alternative scenarios of future growth and income when valuing a company like Google.

Last week, the U.S. Senate passed a Democrat-sponsored bill (S 3412), by a vote of 51-48, extending the Bush-era tax cuts to the middle class. The Senate Republican version, which lost by a vote of 45-54, would have given tax breaks of approximately $160,000 per year to the average American millionaire and added $155 billion to the U.S. deficit.
This week the House of Representative has its turn. The House vote could take place as early as tomorrow. Will the House pass the Senate measure that preserves vital assistance for middle- and working-class Americans or will they hold the majority of us hostage by passing a bill to extend massive tax cuts to the mega wealthy?
I am running for Congress in N.J.'s new, competitive 11th District. If I were your Congressional representative, I can promise you that I would be voting in favor of the bill that the Senate passed last week. Why? Because I'm a Certified Public Account and a numbers man. When you look at the numbers it's obvious that the Senate bill gives millions of Americans a fair shot at economic stability.
But I can't vote next week because I'm not in Congress — at least not yet.
Instead, we must rely on my Republican opponent, Rodney Frelinghuysen, to do the right thing. I hear Rep. Frelinghuysen is a good man and I have not doubt that he is. On this issue, however, the proof will be in the voting.
If the House passes the Senate version, President Barack Obama has promised to sign the bill into law that will benefit 98% of Americans and nearly every small business.
If the House passes the Republican version, the bill will stall as the Senate and the House attempt to reconcile the differences between the bills — something easier said than done in the contentious atmosphere that pervades the halls of Congress these days.
So what's it going to be Mr. Frelinghuysen? Are you going to vote in favor of extending tax cuts to the 98% of us who make up this great country or are you going to vote to preserve the interests of the mega wealthy?
I encourage each of you to ask Congressman Frelinghuysen to do the right thing. Tell Mr. Frelinghuysen to vote in favor of the Democratic-sponsored bill that passed the Senate last week and to vote against a Republican House bill that will extend those cuts to the wealthiest Americans.
The congressman's office can be reached at (973) 984-0711.
11:26 am on Monday, July 30, 2012
It is important that Mr. Frelinghuysen strongly consider breaking ties with his party and vote for the Senate Tax Bill. This will keep in place vital Earned Income Tax credits for the working poor while ensuring all incomes below $200k, 250k for couples filing jointly, maintain tax relief. The Republican plan rips the Earned Income Tax Credits from the working poor while lining the pockets of the richest Americans with an additional $160k. I, too, believe that Mr. Frelinghuysen is a good man, but fear he will follow the will of his fellow House Republicans and come down once again, for those least needy of help in these difficult times. Let's hope, he sees the light and votes for the Senate Bill.
12:04 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
I agree with you 100%. It is up to our representatives in government to vote to do the right thing and not make a vote just because the party says so. We can't continue to provide out of whack breaks for the super-wealthy. It is economically untenable.
To Mr. Arvanites,
It is refreshing to see a candidate engage in civilized conversation with voters and opponents. We, as voters, might not always agree on everything, but it is important to realize that and then have a conversation. Mr. Arvanites, you seem like a man who is willing to talk and to actually get things done. I am glad you are running. Keep it up!
2:35 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
The tax cut will benefit 98% of Americans? So what about that 2%? You are implying that it is hurting them, right? And that 2% are mostly job creators. So really you are hurting that 2% plus a tremendous amount of unseen people who gain jobs from this so called 2%. Democrats love class warfare. Not to mention the millionaire tax is for people making over $250,000, not quite a million.
Try raising kids, paying a mortgage and running a small business in the NYC area with $250,000. How am I supposed to expand my business? And the last time I checked rich people employee people with lower income, so why hurt the two hundred and fifty thousanders? Your logic and grasp of economics are just wrong. You may be a numbers guy but when you have the wrong formula it doesn't matter what your numbers are to begin with. I'll stick with Rodney in 2012.
Dan Grant
3:34 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
There are no job creators in the top 2 percent. If there were we would be rolling in jobs because they have had ten years to create those jobs. What they created was a class of priviledge and then all the rest of us.
2:54 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
I appreciate your viewpoint, but the idea that if you tax the top 2% of Americans a little more you will be killing jobs is false. I don't believe that Mr. Arvanites is speaking at all about "hurting" the top 2%. He is merely stating that the top 2% should pay a fairer share of tax. Ultimately it isn't the rich that create jobs it is aggregate consumer demand, which is generated mostly among the 98%. Equally, only 3% of small business owners will be impacted by tax increases. These businesses are mainly law firms, professional corporations, and other types of partnerships that generate a large degree of revenue each year.
This isn't about class warfare, it is about creating a more stable and equal system. No one here hates the rich or thinks that the rich shouldn't be successful. Respectfully, I would argue by all accounts your grasp of economics is wrong. I suggest reading this article by Joseph Stiglitz a Columbia University economist: http://articles.latimes.com/2012/jul/22/opinion/la-oe-stiglitz-inequality-20120722
10:07 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
Read your Columbia professor Nobel prize winning article, wow now I know where Obama gets his economic talking points big govt economic control European style socialism at it best everything he proposes is govt interference which in reality is the problem the more govt gets involved in economy the lees free market dynamics we have we what everyone to make more money so they can decide to spend it or save it or invest it or a little of everything free choice no controls by life sucking govt taxes ,rules, regulation and bureaucratic red tape all hinder growth and creativity
3:15 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
Who are you to decide what fair share is? I think fair share would be the same rate for everyone. Now that is fair. Or why not tax those that make less at a higher rate, is that fair?
Listen, we all know this is nothing but rhetoric. It sounds so nice and pleasing - the rich should just pay their fair share. The truth is that you can tax the top 2% of this country at 100% and that money would do not even be close to enough to fix the hole that we are in. Maybe you should read Hazlitt or Bastiat or a free market capitalist economist instead of some ivy league stiff.
3:34 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
I ask you this, how would a flat tax impact a single parent working three minimum wage jobs just to feed their kids? First, the tax revenue from taxing a person such as this wouldn't begin to "fix the hole we are in," and at the same time would cripple them financially.
This is more about social responsibility than anything. Making sacrifice for many middle and working class families means giving up necessities, like healthcare or things as simple as a new pair of shoes for their children. For the top 2% sacrificed means driving a less expensive car or maybe taking a week long vacation instead of two weeks.
As for the credibility of Joseph Stiglitz, I think that a Nobel Prize in Economics speaks for itself, but I will let you reserve judgement on that point. My guess is you didn't bother to read the article, and that is fine. But, if you have a moment would you post a few links to your preferred economists. I would like to take a look.

Thanks to offshore bank accounts, we have no idea how much money the top 2% are holding. Analyses of many countries have found that the amount of wealth held abroad exceeds their National Debt! These so-called job creators are no more than profiteers, with no loyalty to their nations nor workers.
Robert Simpson
9:49 am on Wednesday, August 1, 2012
Mr Johnston: If you want an idea of the wealth of the top 100 Americans, Forbes publishes a list every year. Google that. Although there are some cheats, investing abroad is perfectly legitimate. Think about the foreign cars made in the U.S. or China has invested $1.2 trillion in our national debt.
You are correct, job creators are profiteers. If a business does not make a profit, they will soon be out of business. Businesses owe their loyalty to their owners.
Dan Grant
3:34 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
No one says that will fix the hole we are in. It is a part of the puzzle and you argue another talking point from the right. "It won't fix it all so why do it". It isn't meant to fix it all but it will help.
3:46 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
Henry Hazlitt - Economics in One Lesson. Go get the book. You really, really should read it. http://www.amazon.com/Economics-One-Lesson-Shortest-Understand/dp/0517548232
Robert Simpson

I say cut the size of government an amount equal to what the 2% tax cut would bring in. Taking money out of the private sector will make the economy worse.
4:25 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
That's the problem, it's not that it will help everything or help just a little. The real fact is that it will hurt everyone. Interference in the ECOnomy only messes it up and hurts it for everyone. (ECO like ECOsystem - interference by an outside source messes it up) True free markets and lower taxes for everyone will in the end benefit everyone.
10:07 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
Jon great reponses to these socialist economic theories there is nothing fair about anything these people are suggesting or equal either ! govt is not the solution they are the problem! Less control and interference from our Govt. is the answer every time they try to fix a problem they create two or more problems ! They all need to read the book "The road to serfdom!"
John Lee

Go ahead and call Paris Hilton, the Khardashians, and Willard Romney "job creators." Moving forward however I would like to be called a "Demand Creator."
5:31 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
How dumb are you? All those people created jobs through their shows, magazines, clothing, etc. And as for Willard... Have you ever heard of Staples? That's more than Barry right there. Or many other companies he saved. It's hard when Barack Hussien doesn't even have a resume to critic.
7:00 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
The top 2% WOULD also get a tax cut--on the first $250k of their income. What they earned above that would revert to the tax rate they paid during the Bush I and Clinton years, and as I recall the sky did not fall when they did so back then.
Linda Towey
8:37 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
I would hope that Rodney Frelinghuysen does the right thing and represent me. I need a break and assistance. Step up and thank you Mr. Arvanites for being supportive of the people like me!
Robert Simpson
9:51 am on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
Linda: If the 2% are required to pay more taxes, they will get the money from somewhere. Perhaps they would give less to charity or fire the house keeper or not redecorate the house or not buy a new automobile or not expand their business. All these things would take money out of the economey. Please tell me how this is going to help you?
10:07 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
Liberals are great advocates for taking other people's money.
Fran Hopkins
11:10 pm on Monday, July 30, 2012
I will contact Rep. Frelinghuysen, but I'll ask him not to support the Democrats' plan. It makes no sense to raise taxes on anyone in this horrendous economy. It won't reduce our debt or deficit and it won't result in job creation; in fact, Ernst & Young says that it will cost us 710,000 jobs. Why do Democrats want to hurt those of us who are already suffering without jobs by making it even harder to find jobs?
And how can you call people who make more than $200,000 or $250,000 the "mega wealthy"? Many of those are small businesspeople, or a married couple consisting of a police officer and a teacher. This class warfare tactic of the Democrats is dishonest and divisive.
Finally, please stop calling the Republican proposal a "tax cut." The proposal is to keep the Federal income tax rates the same as they are -- taxes that only about half of Americans actually pay. Even President Obama agreed to this just two short years ago; he understood then that you don't raise taxes in a recession. Now he needs to fuel the class warfare flames in the hope of being reelected. It's sad that so many people fall for this.
It should also be pointed out that tax rates alone are not the only factors that affect job creation. Massive deficit spending, debt, overregulation and the upcoming "Taxmageddon" all make it impossible for most businesses to grow and prosper.
Want things to get better for all Americans? Vote Republican in November! It's our only hope.
9:51 am on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
There is a glaring issue with this study that you cite. It assumes that the additional revenue would be used to grow government instead of deficit reduction. President Obama has targeted to increased revenue to go towards reducing the deficit, which is something we need to do.
And Fran, tell me what kind of teacher is making $200,000 plus a year? The term class warfare is a dishonest and divisive in and of itself, and yet the GOP happily uses it to describe responsible economics. They use it to describe a president who has to this point restrained the growth of federal spending more than any administration since Eisenhower. Still, he is engaging in class warfare. I would like a definition of class warfare.
If we are going to talk about only half of Americans paying taxes we should also clear a few things up. The people you are speaking of are elderly, retired and on fixed incomes. Perhaps we should tax their social security checks or put them back to work? The other portion is made up of tax credits for children and for the working poor. (see http://goo.gl/WXzgi)
And to your final points. Taxmagedon is another dishonest and divisive term devised by the spin doctors on the right. Last time I checked, we are in a massive recession because of under regulation (remember the banks?). If only that had been regulated properly. Let's just blame class warfare though. It would've saved me a whole bunch of time.
9:51 am on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
Fran, please list all of the towns where teachers and police officers are routinely paid $125k or more per year. I want a job there!
I realize you get all of your talking points from Boss Limbaugh, but the "half of Americans pay no income taxes" canard is just laughable when you look at the facts. The members of that club have a special qualification--they have virtually no income! They include the desperately poor and the long-term unemployed, but primarily consist of retirees scraping by on Social Security. I'm sure they'd gladly trade places with you in order to have a decent income (even if they had to pay some taxes). Really, your post is an example of class warfare at its most contemptible, intended to dupe the middle class into believing that they have more in common with the super-wealthy than with the working class and poor.

Just looked at Nutley police, 27 active police making between $150k to $120K, and 22 retired at $65K or better.
Robert Simpson
3:15 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
The Parsippany budget for policeman salary is $12,997,724. There are 90 policeman. The average salery is $144,419. I haven't checked teachers salarys, but keep in mind they only work 10 months per year. The average wage in NJ is $48,000
3:15 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
Actually Fran is right and you are wrong Matt and J. Half of Americans who file income taxes receive more money back then what they put in. So no its not children and the incredibly poor like you said. 50% of people who file income taxes do not pay any income taxes. There are also people in the group you mentioned who don't even file taxes - that is to hard to keep track off. So in reality you are talking about a population where well over 50% do not pay income taxes. It's from loopholes and rates in the tax code that was put into place for political pandering and power struggles. I don't care what party. But it is fact that 50% (an estimated 46-50% albeit) of filers do not pay income tax and even if you say that it's because the poor need it - your saying that 50% of the country is poor?
7:22 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
Please reread my comment. I made no mention of children. Quite the opposite. The majority of those who pay zero income taxes are seniors living on Social Security benefits.
I do agree with you that the tax code is littered with all sorts of loopholes and credits that should not be there. But the last time I checked most poor people and retirees lacked the means to hire lobbyists and donate millions in campaign contributions in order to obtain these goodies.
John Lee
3:49 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
The 50% of people not paying income taxes is actually the number of people who do not pay PAYROLL TAXES - big difference. Payroll taxes are for earned income, doing a job and receiving a wage or salary. Income from rental, dividends, capital gains and other investments is income and is taxed, but its not a payroll tax. A particular news channel has been repeating the "50% of Americans don't pay" mantra and its being altered to tell a different story.
6:33 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2012
And you didn't directly address the issue. I think everyone knows the difference between dividends, capital gains taxes and so forth. So why is it 50% don't pay anything? I think they should pay their fair share.

NLR Man Accused of Stealing Copper Pipes from Vacant House
By: KARK 4 News
Updated: November 21, 2012
Gerald Tayborn, 52, was arrested Tuesday afternoon at 3510 Highway 161 on breaking or entering charges.
The Pulaski County Sheriff's Office (PCSO) says Tayborn stole three pieces of copper pipe, each about two feet long, and valued at fifty-dollars each.
The property owner told deputies he was alerted to the theft when a friend told him they saw an outside water faucet being wiggled back and forth. After confronting Tayborn, the owner called the PCSO.
The copper pipes were returned to the owner after Tayborn's arrest.
Tayborn is being held on $2,500 bond at the Pulaski County Jail.

Good production values, the bodies are well lit and well shot as expected for a big budget prodution. Decent story line the sex just isn't all that hot though.
Fine overall production. Good couples film, no extreme sex. A bit too much girl/girl action for our taste, but still recommended.
definitely an older flick, most of the actors have retired, moved on, or are past their prime. the sex is reasonably hot and production is first rate, but in a film titled "paradise" all the sex scenes are shot indoors. what's that about?
Big surprise, Devinn's gay, Stormy is bored, and hardly anyone is having decent hetero sex.
Better that most. Excellent couples feature, the couplings were well shot yet maintained heat. The dubbing was distracting and the plot was vague, but the wife liked it.
Seymore remains the undisputed ruler in gonzo porn. His quirky relaxed style combined with hot sex continue to solify his place in the genre. The scenes become progressively better as the video progresses, all F/F/M threesomes, and while the Flower/Nacho?Mari threeway sizzles, the final scene with just Seymore and Mari makes the movie. Mari is either the best acress since Catherine Hepburn, or Seymore reduced her to a bowl of orgasmic jelly.
Good couples flick, the sex was well set up for her and hot enough for him. The sex was varied but not nasty or over the top.
High production values, hot sex, good set-up. Excellect couples movie, we both recommend it.
Hot women, hot sex, everyone seems to enjoy themselves particularly in the first 2 scenes, the asian girl is off the hook.
Nice staging, good looking women, reasonably hot sex, but only the scene with Lezley Zen and Ben English generated any real heat. A little more intensity would have made this a higher rated film.

Flower Mound Leader > News
County announces funding for FM 2499 extension
From staff reports
Published: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 9:49 PM CST
Denton County and the town of Flower Mound announced Wednesday that the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) in partnership with Denton County and the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) has funded the extension of FM 2499 from SH 1221 North to Denton Creek at an estimated cost of $90 million.
Preliminary approval of these projects were endorsed by the RTC at their January 2013 meeting.
Improvements will include additional capacity and grade separations at Stars and Stripes Way and Grapevine Mills Drive. This section of FM 2499 is part of the original scope of the DFW Connector. TxDOT has entered into negotiations with NorthGate Constructors to include this section of FM 2499 into the current project. Negotiations are expected to be completed this summer with construction lasting 24 months.
Additionally, TxDOT anticipates a July/August 2013 letting for improvements to SH 121 from teh Sam Rayburn Tollway (SRT) to SH 114 at an estimated construction cost of $80 million. Improvements will include additional capacity through the limits of the project.
"Once again, the partnership that Denton County has forged with TxDOT and the RTC has proven to be beneficial not only to the residents of Denton County but to the residents of Dallas and Tarrant Counties as well," said Commissioner Eads, Denton County's representative on the RTC. "This will improve the quality of life for our residents and enhance mobility for our business community."
Preliminary approval of these projects were endorsed by the RTC at its January 2013 meeting.
"We are thrilled the funding has been approved for this vital connector between FM 2499 and SH 121, thanks to the hard work of Denton County Commissioners Andy Eads and Bobbie Mitchell," said Flower Mound Mayor Tom Hayden.
"This connector will not only increase the mobility for Flower Mound residents and businesses, but also our many visitors who travel through our community every day. For many of our commuters, this will save them at least 30 minutes a day – that's 30 extra minutes they can spend with their families instead of in a car."
"This is great news for Flower Mound residents, as they travel to and from their jobs, the airport, and throughout the Metroplex," said Flower Mound Town Councilmember Jean Levenick.
"This project will not only benefit our Town, but surrounding communities as well, and will serve as another selling point for businesses looking to open their doors in Flower Mound. Any opportunity to reduce travel time is a victory for everyone."

Almost half (47%) of trade-show visitors go with the express plan of buying within 12 months of an event, and fully 81% of attendees can make the final call or recommend on purchases.
So why aren't marketers more aggressive in the lead up to events?

We can tell the last ten items a consumer bought on our site and we can tell the open rate of our email marketing campaigns, but few of us can say how long any one visitor at our event booth spent there and what they picked up.
The swag, a brochure, your business card, your hot intern's telephone number, which was it?
This not-knowing is weird, says Liz Miller, overseer of daily operations at the CMO Council (CMOC), a global affinity network of top brand marketers. "Since when did a marketer get shy?" she asked recently.

The posh set may still lord their smart handbags, pricey silks, and Ibiza getaways over the masses in the offline world, but in digital it's a different story.
Online, luxury retailers struggle to keep up with the Kmarts and J.Crews of the world. In fact, according to a recent study by L2, one in five luxury brands still lack ecommerce capability, and 30 percent of them have yet to incorporate basic site search.

How quickly fortunes change. Just eight years ago Nokia was the world's leading smartphone manufacturer. Today it's so far behind the competition that it trails beleaguered Blackberry in shipments to retailers.
A "challenger brand" is what Tejal Patel, global head of social commerce and performance for Nokia, now calls the company.

Son of the late and venerable historian Eric Hobsbawm, Andy Hobsbawm may make history, not write it. That's because he, along with technologist and serial entrepreneur Niall Murphy, as well as computer scientists Dom Guinard and Vlad Trifa, are making great strides with EVRYTHNG, a software company bent on connecting objects to the Internet — making them "smart," as it were.
Powered by the EVRYTHNG Engine, the technology makes real the "Internet of Things," a concept first named in 1999. In that schema, objects are given virtual identities (perhaps through RFID tags, maybe through a barcode or QR code) and connected in a Web-like structure.

So now that you're thinking about it, doesn't it make sense to reward that patient colleague who responds to the company's Twitter devotees, comes up with sweetly snarky posts that attract thousand of "Likes," and gently mollifies cranky YouTube commenters...and does the hard work of analytics around social?

"The field isn't level, but it's more level than other playing fields," said Erin Rackelman, CMO and cofounder of Portland-based Night & Day Studios, last week.
She was talking about the app marketplace, which offers more than 700,000 products in the Apple store alone and where previously unheard-of companies like Zynga and PopCap have bested more established brands with their sales volume.
Part of their success can be attributed to the newness of the mobile market, less than a decade old and forced to address constant technological change in that time.

During WW1, a German naval officer led his landing party on a 11000 km escape back to Germany after watching his ship sink in the Indian Ocean.
Von Mucke was the Executive Officer and First Lieutenant of the German Light Cruiser SMS Emden of the Imperial German Navy. The ship was very successfully as a commerce raider in the Indian Ocean on the autumn of 1914.
On November, the ship's captain dispatched Mucke to lead a 53 man landing party onto Direction Island to destroy wireless stations and the shore facilities. British wireless operators however, spotted the ship's smoke on the horizon and responded by dispatching a wireless message stating that an unknown ship was approaching.
The alert was heard, and the ship was encountered and defeated. Mucke and his landing party witnessed the demise from just 17 miles away and felt their hope sink along with their beloved ship.
Over the next 6 monthes, Mucke led his command on one of the longest escapes ever recorded, over 11 000 km by land and sea, and lost only a total of 4 men; which seems tragic but was quite an accomplishment at the time.


text: Hello, I recently started playing GW2 and I am loving it so far. I've been doing all right by myself so far, but I decided to check out some guilds and see if I am interested in any of them. I'm new to all this so I don't really know all the ins-and-outs of guilds in GW2, so any help is appreciated. My timezone is PST, I'm usually on from about 7:00pm to 11:00pm. I'm not much of a hardcore MMO player so I'm not looking for anything too intense. I am currently playing as a level 28 necromancer, but I was contemplating starting a guardian. I'm not really quite sure how the whole multiple characters stuff works, so again any and all help is very much appreciated.

Strong in Struggling Times
By Amanda McCusker
First of all I want to thank everyone who is praying for us during this difficult time of our miscarriage. I thank everyone who has contacted me and offer support. I love you all. And you have no idea how much it means to know that our family, friends and even friends we haven't met yet are there for us and for me.Many people have commented, "You are so strong." and "I don't know how you are handling this as well as you are." And I have news for them, I don't feel strong. Tired, frustrated, sad, weary, disheartened, is what I feel.
However, feeling these depressive emotions right now does not stop my spirit from looking forward to the future. I need time to grieve for the child we will not have. Especially right now when my body is still greatly influenced by hormones as I continue to process this miscarriage.
No matter what pain and sadness I experience I know something greater than these trials--I know God's love. God has given me a reassuring peace over this entire situation, just like the two miscarriages before it. I don't know the reason and I do not understand the meaning of my losses, but God is in control. I've known it for a while, God has something up his sleeve and I am on a journey to find out what it is and how I can be apart of his supreme plan.
Looking forward to the future is a happy view for me. I want a big family, everyone I know or reads my writing knows that. However, I am so absolutely blessed for my daughter Zoey and my husband Stephen. I don't need anyone else in our immediate family to make it feel complete.
I am happy, despite this loss. I am happy during this loss. I am happy because this loss does not mean a burdened life for me or my family. I am sad, incredibly so, but life goes on and I intend to go with it. I live in the everyday and I live for the small miracles.
This miscarriage was not the miracle meant for me right now, but even when God says no, it is not always meant as a punishment. God showed me during my first miscarriage that bad things do not happen because of something we did or didn't do. We can look to Job for that. Struggles are times of learning, growing as individuals and in relationship with God. They are times we can feel and share with others who are grieving. There is more to loss than the loss itself, there is hope. There is hope we can give to others, hope we can give to ourselves. Simply being able to pick up the pieces and move forward is a victory.
The Bible says a lot of struggle and persecution. I want to share a few verses that have helped me specifically through this struggle:
"That's why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and trouble that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:10 (NLT)"This is my command--be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord you God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9"Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28"When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." John 8:12I don't always feel strong, but God is strong and His light shines through me. I suppose I have a strong perspective when it comes to a loss like this and that makes me appear strong. I will take it because I feel like a mess. Nonetheless, I know God is with me and I will make it through this. And through the struggle I will be stronger.
When have you had to face a set of difficult circumstances? What did you do to be strong? How does God help you through troubled times?

Robin Keevan accepts opportunity to take over Penncrest's girls lacrosse program
For the first time in more than half a decade, Penncrest had to find itself a new girls lacrosse coach.
Last week, athletic director Chip Olinger's search finally came to a close as he announced that Robin Keevan would take over the reins of the program from former coach Megan Magee, who resigned Oct. 2. after a season that was capped by a District One tournament appearance.
"I think it was just the opportunity to be a head coach, and I just felt it was time to have my own team," said Keevan, a Great Valley graduate who spent the past six years as an assistant to Joe Tornetta at her alma mater. "Joe was encouraging me to take the next step. It was just time, and with an up and coming team that got to playoffs last year, I thought I could help."
If Keevan's coaching ability is anything like her on-field accomplishments as a player, the Lions should rank among the Central League's elite in no time. She was a four-year starter at Great Valley before being named a three-time Atlantic-10 selection and a two-time All-American during her collegiate days at Temple University. Prior to joining Tornetta's staff, Keevan spent a year as an Owls assistant. She'll be tested early and often by playing in the best league in the state, a league that has produced seven of the eight teams to play for a PIAA title, but that was one of the selling points for Keevan.
"The league is difficult, but I like the challenge," Keevan said. "You want your schedule to have hard competition to get better. There's a good group coming back that's very excited after the big season they had last year. I've yet to meet the team, but there's a good handful of players back."
With such deep roots tied to the Great Valley program, it was tough for Keevan to say goodbye, especially to a team that ranked among the state's best a year ago. The Patriots won the Ches-Mont League and advanced to the PIAA tournament before bowing out in the first round to Conestoga. It's that type of experience and knowledge she'll try to impart upon a team that went 9-9 in the regular season before dropping a first-round district game to Media rival and PIAA runnerup Strath Haven.
