Cleaning as much waste material as possible from your large intestine (colon) is crucial to a successful colonoscopy exam. Poor colonoscopy preparation can keep your doctor from finding polyps, tumors and other problems. It also increases the length of the exam and the risk of complications. In many cases, the exam has to be redone.
The biggest reason for poor colonoscopy preparation is people's distaste for having to drink large quantities of bowel cleaning solution. The most common colonoscopy preparation calls for drinking 1 gallon (4 liters) of a polyethylene glycol solution. Some studies have shown that more than a third of people don't complete the full preparation.
To make bowel preparation more tolerable, many doctors recommend splitting the dose of bowel preparation. Take 3 liters the night before the exam, and the remainder in the morning before the test. This regimen may not be possible if your colonoscopy is scheduled for early in the morning; you should consume the morning dose four to six hours prior to the procedure.
Studies have shown that the split-dose approach not only is more tolerable, but also does a better job of cleaning the colon. Better cleaning will lead to better results. One study found that doctors detected more common benign tumors (adenomas) in people who prepared with split doses than in people who prepared with single doses.
Ask your doctor about split-dose preparation for your next colonoscopy.

Dancing in the Rain
When Laurette Garcia & Dave Giacomo orginally planned their big day in Guerneville they imagined it outside, however some unexpected rain moved the event indoors. They made lemons into lemonade by having a fun outdoor photoshoot with the bridal party in colorful rainboots in between downpours. We admire their inventiveness and ability to make the best out of the unexpected. Dark magenta hues paired with bright multi-colored rainboots made for some fanitastic, slightly hilarious, wedding photos. Between tug-o-war on the lawn and dancing up a storm, it's easy to see that this couple doesn't let anything rain on their parade.

Jimmy Choo launched a capsule collection of reinterpreted iconic styles Tuesday, along with the Jimmy Choo Foundation, an organization that aims to raise awareness about women's issues.
The 10-piece line, aptly titled Icons, was inspired by 15 of the brand's archival styles, including a violet feathered slingback from "Sex & the City" and a pointy toed stiletto worn by the brand's founder and chief creative officer, Tamara Mellon, when she accepted her Order of the British Empire from the Queen of England. The shoes will be available in November.
"Tamara really looked through some of the shoes that made an impact, whether with celebrities or editorial over the course of 15 years," said CEO Joshua Schulman. "What's interesting about the project is that it shows over the 15-year history how some of the signatures remain, but now they've been modernized and look much more current."
The brand also released a coffee-table book, "Jimmy Choo XV," published by Rizzoli, that offers photos, sketches and behind-the-scenes shots of the brand's 15 most memorable styles. The book will be available in Jimmy Choo stores in November, and at bookstores internationally in February.
One hundred percent of the revenues from the book and 10 percent of the net sales from the Icons collection will benefit the Jimmy Choo Foundation.

I'm confused…how does one hear the samples and full track?
Isn't releasing a holiday CD before it's even Halloween a bit early? Apparently Starbucks' (yes, the coffee giant) label Hear Music and Concord Music Group don't think so. The two have compiled a list of big name artists to cover holiday songs, most of them Christmas standards. The album is titled Holidays Rule (appropriate for the promising nature of the album) and will be released October 30th (giving plenty of time for customers to buy the CD for gifts). Some of the big names on the compilation include Paul McCartney, The Shins, Rufus Wainwright and Sharon Van Etten, and Andrew Bird. You can listen to samples of each song here and the full version of Wainwright and Van Etten's song "Baby, It's Cold Outside" here.
Here's the full track listing for Holidays Rule:
01. fun.: "Sleigh Ride"
02. The Shins: "Wonderful Christmastime"
03. Rufus Wainwright with Sharon Van Etten: "Baby, It's Cold Outside"
04. Paul McCartney: "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)"
05. Black Prairie: "(Everybody's Waitin' for) The Man With the Bag" [ft. Sallie Ford]
06. The Civil Wars: "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day"
07. Calexico: "Green Grows the Holly"
08. AgesandAges: "We Need a Little Christmas"
09. Holly Golightly: "That's What I Want For Christmas"
10. Irma Thomas with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band: "May Everyday Be Christmas"
11. Heartless Bastards: "Blue Christmas"
12. Eleanor Friedberger: "Santa Bring My Baby Back to Me"
13. Fruit Bats: "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas"
14. Y La Bamba: "Señor Santa"
15. The Punch Brothers: "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel"
16. The Head & the Heart: "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve"
17. Andrew Bird: "Auld Lang Syne"

OK, I know you broncomaniacs have been at it behind the scenes and I stepped out of the blogo-sphere for a while because I was honestly tired of all the speculation. Did the Mac and Doog show a number of times over the past few weeks and was pretty fed up with the finger pointing and who said what stuff…….had enough of that bad press on both sides…….to an attitude of let's see how all this plays out………………so here we are.
Still don't have all the details and on how it affects the retired guys like myself as I said, "Show me how the additional benefits will be handled accounting-wise". So far everything I read sounds good BUT you never really know until you can read it to REALLY know what it says. Outside that, you know what???
I'm really excited that FOOTBALL IS BACK and we're ON!!!
So tell me your main thoughts on Orten being on the blocks and who you really would like to see as we've seen some moves already today with McNabb and others being signed to their current teams?
Love to hear your TAKE?

- Sugar cookie dough (homemade or store bought)
- Rolling pin
- Flour
- Wax paper
- Baking sheet
- Cooling rack
- Marshmallows
- Confectioner's sugar
- Kitchen knife
- Decorator's icing
- Tootsie Roll candies
- Green Dots candies
- Chocolate Chips
- Yellow hard candies
- Gummy Life Savers
1. Print the template and cut out the pieces.
2. Roll the cookie dough out to ¼-inch thickness on a flour-dusted sheet of wax paper. For each cookie, use the template pieces as a pattern to cut a tow truck body, a front bumper, and a side view mirror bar from the dough. Bake and cool the cookie pieces according to the recipe directions.
3. For each tow truck, place a marshmallow on a piece of wax paper dusted with confectioner's sugar and use a rolling pin to roll it as thin as possible. Then use the template pieces to cut out a marshmallow windshield and two marshmallow teeth.
4. Likewise, roll flat the Tootsie Roll candies (if the candy is too stiff, you can microwave it for up to 5 seconds to soften it). Use the template pieces to cut out a candy mouth and windshield trim for each cookie.
5. To assemble each Tow Mater treat, first use dabs of decorator icing to stick the windshield and mouth pieces in place. Then top the windshield with the trim piece. For eyes, slice two circle shapes from a green Dots candy. Then press a chocolate chip, tip down, into the center of each circle. Use dabs of frosting to hold the eyes in place atop the windshield. Next, stick the teeth atop the mouth. Add a yellow hard candy for a "shining" headlight and a Gummy Life Saver for a broken headlight.
6. Use decorator's icing to attach a front bumper to each truck. Then stick the side view mirror bar to the back of the cookie so that the ends extend beyond the cab above the headlights. For mirrors, slice another Tootsie Roll in half vertically and stick one halve to each end of the mirror bar.

Sheldon J. Segal, 1926–2009 "The work of scientists—social scientists and medical scientists—to develop more effective, safe, socioculturally acceptable methods of family planning is a search for ways to alleviate suffering and enrich the lives of women throughout the world." — Sheldon J. Segal in a 2008 address to the staff of the Population Council. The speech marked the Council's 55th anniversary and looked back upon the 40 years of his career that he devoted to the organization and its mission to improve the lives of the world's most vulnerable people. Services for Shelly Segal Sunday, 15 November, 11:00 am Wednesday, 9 December, 4:00 pm Read tributes to Shelly Segal from friends and colleagues all over the world. |
Sheldon J. Segal, Distinguished, Dedicated,
and Decorated Scientist
and Beloved Friend, Dies
NEW YORK, NY (19 October 2009) — Sheldon J. Segal, of New York City, who led a team of Population Council scientists that produced several highly effective, long-acting contraceptives, died October 17th at his home in Woods Hole, Mass. He was 83 years old.
Segal directed the research and development of Norplant®, the first contraceptive implant; the Mirena® intrauterine system; and copper-bearing intrauterine devices (IUDs). He also oversaw initial studies of contraceptive vaginal rings, one of which recently completed a Phase 3 clinical study of safety and effectiveness. More than 120 million women around the world have used a long-acting contraceptive developed under Segal's guidance.
Announcing Segal's death, Population Council President Peter J. Donaldson said, "Shelly was one of the most influential and most respected figures in the population and reproductive health field. His Council colleagues and his many friends and professional colleagues around the world will miss his scientific acumen, his warmth, his wisdom and good judgment, and his friendship."
Born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., Segal enlisted in the U.S. Navy near the end of World War II at the age of 16, rising to the rank of lieutenant, junior grade, and subsequently earned his bachelor's degree from Dartmouth College. He received his Ph.D. in embryology and biochemistry at the University of Iowa and then became a research assistant professor at the university. Segal joined the Population Council in 1956 as assistant medical director of the Council's Center for Biomedical Research, and in 1963 was appointed director of the biomedical labs.
In 1970, Segal created the International Committee for Contraception Research (ICCR) to provide a noncommercial, international association for identifying, developing, and testing new contraceptives. "There was a need for a public-sector institution for which the bottom line would be to develop improved methods for the world's diverse population," said Segal in an article about the founding of the ICCR.
He left the Population Council in 1978 to become director of the Rockefeller Foundation's newly formed Division of Population Sciences, where he continued his advocacy for basic and applied research in reproductive biology. He returned to the Population Council in 1991 to assume the position of Distinguished Scientist and chairman of the organization's Institutional Review Board. Segal, with his wife Harriet, continued his association with the Rockefeller Foundation as Ella Walker Distinguished Fellows at the foundation's Bellagio Study and Conference Center. He was also an adjunct professor of clinical pharmacology at Weill Cornell Medical College.
Segal's contributions to contraceptive development and reproductive health were widely recognized. In 1984, he received the United Nations Population Award, given annually in recognition of outstanding contributions to increasing awareness of population questions and to their solutions. He was an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine. In 2005 he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Academy of Human Reproduction; and in 2007 he was awarded the Joseph Bolivar DeLee Humanitarian Award from the University of Chicago for his contribution to the health of women and infants. In 2008, Segal shared the Prix Galien USA Pro Bono Humanum Award for his role in developing implantable hormone delivery systems. Segal was also awarded the Society of Family Planning's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008. He held honorary M.D. degrees from the University of Uppsala in Sweden and the University of Tampere in Finland, and an honorary doctorate of humanities and letters from Mercy College. He was an honorary member of Mexico's National Academy of Sciences and China's Academy of Sciences. He was decorated by the President of India, where he spent two years as a visiting professor at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and advisor to the Government of India. "He came to us as a friend and left as a brother," said the president in his remarks. Among his other honors, he received the Order of the Lion of Finland and was elected an honorary member of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in England.
Segal served as advisor to the World Health Organization, the United Nations Population Fund, The World Bank, the European Parliament, and the U.S. Congress. He authored or co-authored more than 300 publications on embryology, endocrinology, the biology of reproduction, contraceptive development, and family planning, and served on the editorial boards of six scientific journals.
Among his best known publications was his 1999 book Is Menstruation Obsolete?, written with Elsimar M. Coutinho, which promoted the view that monthly menstruation is not medically beneficial. In 2003, Segal published Hormone Use in Menopause and Male Andropause: A Choice for Women and Men, co-authored with his lifelong friend Luigi Mastroianni, Jr., and Under the Banyan Tree: A Population Scientist's Odyssey, his analysis of the effects of population growth, and a passionate plea for the education of girls. The Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine named Under the Banyan Tree its book of the month for August 2003 and wrote, "Segal is a masterful interpreter of high science . . . the non-specialist reader will nowhere find a better description or explanation of how the human reproduction systems functions and how modern science has helped individuals to regulate and control it."
"No one was more respected and beloved at the Population Council than Shelly," said Jim Sailer, Population Council director of corporate affairs. "He had the rare combination of a passionate desire to make a difference in the world together with a grace and human touch that allowed him to connect with people regardless of their status. He has been such an important presence at the Council and in our field for over 50 years. We will miss him terribly."
Segal enjoyed running, tennis, skiing, and sailing, often in Woods Hole, Mass., where he spent summers. He was a visiting investigator at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, where he served as chairman of the board of trustees from 1991 to 2002.
He is survived by his wife, the novelist Harriet Segal; three daughters and their husbands, Amy R. Segal and Andrew Blum of Newton, Mass., Jennifer S. Madden and Dave Madden of Bedford Corners, N.Y., and Laura J. Segal and Matt Petrie of Watertown, Mass.; and seven grandchildren, Peter, Madeline, Thomas, Honor, Charlotte, Cooper, and Jenna.

P&G donates toilet paper on behalf of $1M winner |
Friday, January 18, 2013 2:00 PM |
HAMILTON (AP) — Charmin is providing some toilet paper relief on behalf of one of Ohio's newest million-dollar lottery winners. Regina Jackson has vivid memories of the aid received from Reach Out Lakota when she was out of work for seven months in 2008. The nonprofit organization provides food, clothing and other necessities to the needy in Butler County in southwest Ohio. Jackson recalled after her recent lottery win having to ration toilet paper — only two rolls a month. So she wanted to donate cash to the nonprofit for toilet paper. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Procter & Gamble Co. executives saw her comments and will donate 5,000 Charmin rolls. Reach Out Lakota gave out 5,500 rolls last year. That mean's Jackson's $5,000 donation will go to food and clothing instead. |

Estimated grade. Sold by B. Max Mehl Jun '41 price realized $1.6
Ron Guth: In 1832, the mintage of Half Dimes dropped below one million coins, once of only two times that this occured in the Capped Bust series. Nevertheless, this is still a hefty mintage and there are plenty of survivors today. Many remain in nice condition, including hundreds of Mint State examples. The most frequently-seen Mint State grade is MS63, followed by MS64. Gem 1832 Half Dimes are not nearly as common, but they can be found with relative ease in MS65 and MS66. In MS67, the number of survivors drops quickly to less than a dozen examples. The finest example known thus far is a single, rather phenomenal PCGS MS68+.
As usual for this series, most examples are well struck. Many of the top-condition coins present lovely toning and patina acquired over the past decades.

One day a guy and a girl were making out in her parents' bedroom, and it was getting pretty steamy. All of a sudden, the guy takes out his shlong and places it in her hand. She screams and runs downstairs, through the kitchen, through the living room, the bathroom, the dining room, back upstairs, through her bedroom, her bathroom, her sister's bedroom, down the hall and back into her parents' bedroom.
"Listen, pal! I have two words for you -- DROP DEAD!"
"I have two words for you -- LET GO!"
