TYLER, TEXAS (KLTV) - An East Texas businessman is seeing red, over the red, white, and blue. Kevin Lewis says he's being punished for his patriotism after displaying what he calls a flag for the Fourth of July holiday. All this flap over flaps is causing a new revolution on Old Jacksonville Highway.
Kevin said he bought eight feather flags and put them on display last week. When they're line up they make one big American flag.
But there was one problem.
"The city of Tyler came by and told me that we couldn't fly them," said Kevin.
Code enforcement delivered a letter, Friday, explaining Kevin's "fluttering," [waving] "signs" were a violation of city ordinance and needed to be removed.
"We have the freedom of speech, the freedom to fly our flag," he said.
But in what form? Barbara Holly, city of Tyler planning director, said the signs are not flags at all. "What you're talking about are advertising devices," she said. "It's got red, white and blue in it, but that's the extent of it."
Holly said those types of signs are distracting for drivers. "Your focus needs to be on the road and not looking at something off the road." She said that's why the city regulates that type of activity.
"I think it's un-American," said Mike Blaser who saw the display.
The city said designated flags, such as American flags, or state flags are okay when flown using proper etiquette.
Kevin has both the American flag and the Texas flag on poles in front of his business.
He says the other eight will wave until after the fourth. "If they're going make me take my flags down, then I think they're going to have a problem," he said.
At this time, Kevin has only received a warning from the city.
Tyler city officials say the city allows up to three flags to flown at one time, up to 35 feet high.
Some allowances are made for holiday decoration.

First to Wake up, Last to go to Sleep: Life as a Probationary Firefighter
The probationary period helps determine if an individual is a "good fit" for the fire department.
Life as a probationary firefighter is not easy; it is not supposed to be. It is supposed to be a period where you are put through the ringer and challenged to be the best you can be. It is a period typically lasting 12 months to 18 months, and maybe up to 24 or 36 months, depending on the department. The probationary period may begin on the first day of the recruit academy, or the first day after graduating from the recruit academy. It is a time when you are under the microscope and can be terminated for any reason whatsoever.
Should this scare you away from being a probationary firefighter? Of course it should not. Most, if not all current firefighters, company officers and chief officers have had to complete a probationary period when they were hired, and many of them when they were promoted. A probationary period is a necessary period to determine if an individual is a "good fit for the department." What does a good fit mean? It can mean a number of things, but it primarily means that you get along well with others, that you are at least a minimum standard firefighter, capable of performing the job and being a safe beginner.
Contrary to what some purists or traditionalists might believe, just because someone is on probation, it doesn't mean we have the right to haze them, intimidate them, berate them, harass them, treat them as second-class citizens or yell at them. It does mean we have the obligation to challenge them to be the best they can be, to evaluate them on the knowledge, skills and abilities appropriate for their position, and to expect them to do their share and maybe a little more. In most departments, the probationary firefighter is a functioning member of the crew. Meaning, if the department staffs three personnel on an engine company, that probationary firefighter is one of the three members. One day out of the academy, and they are expected to be a functioning member of the crew. Pretty scary, and asking a lot, don't you think?
Because the probationary firefighter is expected to be a functioning member of the crew, the department is obligated to ensure they are able to be a safe beginner. When the training division "blesses" someone and says they successfully completed the recruit academy and is ready to serve on the line as a safe beginner, it is now up to the line personnel to evaluate the probationary personnel to determine whether they have retained the information taught within the academy and whether they will be a good fit for the department, at the end of the probationary period.
A probationary firefighter should be the first one up every morning, and the last one to bed, with a few exceptions. I have known some firefighters that stay up all night long, or like to go to bed at one or two in the morning. When I work at a fire station, I do not typically hit the bed until after midnight, due to the workload and projects I am involved in. I am not complaining; I enjoy what I do and what I am involved in. It is probably unrealistic to expect a probationary firefighter to wait until I go to bed at one or two in the morning before they hit the sack, and then have to get up at five thirty in the morning to start off the daily routine. However, they should be up before I am, and already have things ready for us to go off duty and the oncoming crew to start work.
I'm not advocating probationary firefighters to be the last to bed and the first to get up just because they are on probation. I don't really believe in making someone do things, "just because they are on probation." About the only things I do feel a probationary firefighter should do (besides be the last to bed and the first to rise), are to not only do their share, but also help the others out with their work and to get tested and evaluated on a more frequent basis (as opposed to someone off probation who has proven themselves by completing probation and through their everyday actions).

The Names Project
This summer, the AIDS Memorial Quilt is returning to Washington, D.C. and will be on display throughout the summer as part of the AIDS 2012 Conference and the 2012 Smithsonian Folklife Festival. HRC is hosting several panels during the month of July in the Equality Center at 1640 Rhode Island Avenue, NW. The public display includes panels honoring Ryan White, MTV star Pedro Zamora and HRC co-founder Steve Endean.
The quilt is a powerful visual reminder of the AIDS pandemic. More than 48,000 individual 3-by-6-foot memorial panels — most commemorating the life of someone who has died of AIDS — have been sewn together by friends, lovers and family members.
The AIDS Memorial Quilt will fill the available sections of the National Mall (from 8th to 14th Streets SW) from July 21-25. A total of 35,200 panels – 8,800 different panels per day – will be displayed on the Mall. Thousands of other panels remain on display in over 50 locations throughout the metropolitan D.C. area.

BELLPORT, N.Y. (AP) - Works by an obscure Armenian-American abstract impressionist discovered in a Long Island garage have been appraised at $30 million.
The new owner of the Bellport cottage found thousands of paintings, drawings and journals by Arthur Pinajian. News 12 Long Island (http://bit.ly/14wZHMp ) says William Hastings Falk valued the works. He once appraised art from the Andy Warhol estate.
Some pieces already have sold for $500,000. Fifty of his landscapes are currently on exhibit at Manhattan's Fuller Building.
A recently published book by art historian William Innes Homer calls Pinajian's abstractions among the best of his era.
The bungalow was purchased in 2007 by Thomas Schultz.

RSO FEST will launch Oct. 7 with 35mm: A Musical Exhibition, produced in association with Tony Award-winning producer John Johnson; followed by Darling, produced in association with Grammy Award winner Kurt Deutsch and Sh-k-boom, Nov. 4; and Jasper In Deadland, produced in association with Prospect Theater Company, Nov. 18.
"I wanted to present my music in the complete context of the show while also having the support of the instrumentation I designed," said songwriter Oliver in a statement. "I want people to hear the whole score of each show in concert, while also seeing the entire story in a condensed form. I'm honored to be joined by so many collaborators on this — directors, producers, and music directors, who I believe are going to help present the most exciting night of RSO music yet."
35mm, the first in the series, premiered in New York in March 2012 with a sold-out run at the Galapagos Art Space starring Lindsay Mendez, Betsy Wolfe, Jay Armstrong Johnson, Ben Crawford and Alex Brightman. An original cast album is available on the Ghostlight label.
Darling, which was featured on NBC's "The Apprentice" in the "Broadway Bound" episode, features music and lyrics by Oliver with a book by actor and writer Brett Ryback, who recently starred in Second Stage Theatre's Murder For Two.
The 7 PM and 9:30 PM concerts will be directed by Jeremy Dobrish with music direction by Chris Fenwick. Here's how the work is described: "1929 Boston: A coming-of-age story about Ursula Morgan, stolen away from her upper-class family by a mysterious rentboy called Peter. Ursula finds herself in the seedy underground in a world of sex, drugs, and jazz."
Jasper In Deadland, which will premiere in New York as part of Prospect Theater Company's 2014 season, features music and lyrics by Oliver with a book by Oliver and Tony Award-nominated actor and writer Hunter Foster.
Directed by Brandon Ivie with music direction by Ryan Fielding Garrett, the 54 Below concerts will be held at 9:30 PM and 11:30 PM. According to press notes, "16-year-old Jasper travels through the Afterlife on a mission to save his best friend, Agnes. In this hybrid underworld, Jasper encounters demons, gods, mortals and monsters from Greek, Egyptian, Roman, Norse, and Judeo-Christian mythology, learning what it means to die and questioning what it means to live."
Oliver is a 2009 Jonathan Larson Grant recipient and a 2008 Rodgers Award winner. He was also featured in Part One of Playbill's Contemporary Musical Theatre Songwriters You Should Know.

Some people on Mercer Island simply can't wait 'til Christmas morning to find out if Santa Claus gave them a visit.
For those who are impatient, don't worry. You can keep tabs on the big guy by following the North American Aerospace Defense Command, or NORAD, website dedicated to Claus' coordinates.
(Click here to visit the NORAD Tracks Santa website )
But the site is more than an enhanced GPS. It also contains a "Kids Countdown Village," which offers games, activities and other features for young ones who eager for Santa, and a mobile app for Windows 8, Windows Phone, Android, or iPhone. On the twitterverse, you can follow Norad at @NoradSanta, or follow Norad's Santa Central on Facebook for instant updates.
The reason NORAD tracks Santa, according to its website, is this:
For more than 50 years, NORAD and its predecessor, the Continental Air Defense Command (CONAD) have tracked Santa's flight.
The tradition began in 1955 after a Colorado Springs-based Sears Roebuck & Co. advertisement for children to call Santa misprinted the telephone number. Instead of reaching Santa, the phone number put kids through to the CONAD Commander-in-Chief's operations "hotline." The Director of Operations at the time, Colonel Harry Shoup, had his staff check the radar for indications of Santa making his way south from the North Pole. Children who called were given updates on his location, and a tradition was born.
In 1958, the governments of Canada and the United States created a bi-national air defense command for North America called the North American Aerospace Defense Command, also known as NORAD, which then took on the tradition of tracking Santa.
Since that time, NORAD men, women, family and friends have selflessly volunteered their time to personally respond to phone calls and emails from children all around the world. In addition, we now track Santa using the Internet. Millions of people who want to know Santa's whereabouts now visit the NORAD Tracks Santa website.
Finally, media from all over the world rely on NORAD as a trusted source to provide updates on Santa's journey.

A lot of discussion led to no action on the Ford Road bridge project Tuesday morning, Oct. 9, at the Boone County Council meeting.
Boone County Commissioner Charles Eaton came to request the council place $500,000 back in the bridge fund to continue with the project.
The council had previously voted 4-2 to withhold $294,500 from the bridge project, effectively halting it, until they could come to an agreement with the Zionsville Town Council and the commissioners on a plan to replace the aging bridge.
"I had really hoped this summer, when we made the decision to defund, we'd be done with it," said Councilman David Rodgers, adding that it will cost future community members a "tremendous amount" of money to deal with this 75-year-old bridge if it is installed.

Tory hits out over hospice proposal
5:30am Tuesday 18th March 2014 in Local News By David Trayner
A TORY councillor has hit out at plans to build houses, a hospice and an office block on a former Southend factory site as looking like they were drawn up "on the back of a fag packet".
Mark Flewitt, who represents St Laurence, spoke out ahead of a Southend Council cabinet meeting tomorrow night which is looking at proposals to develop the former Ekco site, between Priory Crescent and Thornford Gardens.
The plans show space for between 150 and 250 family homes – with 30 per cent set aside for a housing association – while about 3.5 acres of the derelict former Prittlebrook Industrial Estate site, facing on to Priory Crescent, will be given over to Havens Hospices for a new, 16-bed adult hospice.
A four-storey office block, also accessed from Priory Crescent, would sit between the hospice and the new Marston's pub being built on the old Toomey car showroom site.
Mr Flewitt is unhappy with the scheme. He said: "The brief looks like it has been done on the back of a fag packet."
He is also worried the plans, which fall inside his ward, are being rushed through.
He added: "Ward councillors have not had a briefing, no one has – it's a serious rush.
"Where is the pre-application consultation with residents before the plans? It's outrageous."
Southend Council has confirmed no consultation with residents or ward councillors took place before the development brief was drawn up.
All councillors are likely to get a say on the document, which will be used to decide any future planning application, if the Tory cabinet gives it the green light tomorrow.
Jonathan Garston, Southend councillor responsible for planning, said: "We are at an early stage.
"We will have discussions with Mark and the other ward councillors. They will have a chance for an input.
"They haven't been consulted before, but there is plenty of time."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - While Republican U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais may have persevered over a series of damaging revelations to win a second term in Congress, he all but exhausted his campaign account to do so.
DesJarlais, a Jasper physician who had sexual relationships with patients and once urged 1 of them to seek an abortion, spent $1.25 million on his campaign to defeat Democratic challenger Eric Stewart, and was left with just $15,660 on hand when the dust settled.
DesJarlais was left largely isolated in Congress following his victory, but has rebuffed calls that he either resign or abandon plans to run for another term.
Several Republicans have publicly stated their interest in running for the 4th District seat in 2014, and DesJarlais' depleted campaign coffers will likely give them more hope.

The strength of America's farmers and ranchers is undeniable. I knew that strength firsthand growing up in a rural community that depended on agriculture. And I see it in so many ways as I meet folks from across the country in my role at USDA--in their work ethic, in their dedication to their crops and animals, and in their commitment to feed their communities and the world.
Read more on the USDA blog >>
Read all AMS blogs >>
Rivers, roads and rails--the shortest distance between two points is not always a straight line. Finding the best path forward can be difficult as city traffic gets worse each year, frustrating commuters and thwarting deliveries. Also in the transportation mix are farmers traveling the same roads trying to bring the freshest produce to city markets.
I love it when business travel doesn't feel so much like a commitment as it does an adventure. That?s the feeling I had this year (and every year) as I packed my bag and headed to the School Nutrition Association's Annual National Convention (SNA-ANC) in Boston, MA.
A recent trip back home to Louisiana sparked memories of a simpler time when old trucks full of fresh produce rumbled down dusty roads to deliver goods to the local market. The 2012 Census of Agriculture tells us that 150,000 farmers and ranchers nationwide are now selling to local retailers and that 50,000 of them are selling their products directly to consumers.

Texas and tax cuts suck; CA leads job growth
How many times have we heard that jobs are leaving California for Texas? How many times have big-business groups and the polticians who play to their needs said that lower taxes and corporate welfare make states more "competitive" and are good for the economy?
So look, for a moment, at California and Texas. Who has the lower taxes and the governor who will do whatever employers want? And who has the more robust job growth?
Just goes to show: Tax breaks do not a health economy make. What companies look for when the make location decisions is much more complicated. An educated labor force (which, by the way, means spending tax money on schools and colleges), access to transportation (again, a public-sector concern) and yes, a decent place where the executives want to live are bigger factors than things like the payroll tax.
That's what studies have shown repeatedly over the years -- and it's playing out now in CA.
competitiveness. But it is naive to suggest that taxes, or any component of costs, is not a major one. OIt's just not the only one.
Oh, and that education of workers in CA has usually taken place elsewhere. Many knowledge workers in SF have degrees from "back east" or even Europe or Asia.
CA gets more than it's fair share of business because of of many factors but the high taxes still deter enterprise. And we saw with Twitter that our politicians understand that, even if you do not.
A few short years ago we were reading blogs here saying that even though Texas was leading in job growth it wasn't an apt comparison because Texas sucks.
Did George Bush EVER come here?
People choose to live in places that suit them, and hating on other places is all part of that.
What is sad, I think, is people who could not survive anywhere but SF. That's kinda lame.
If people live where it suits them, why do you and matlock choose to live in SF?
progressobots here.
The progressobot leader Avalos show up and want to tell everyone how to live. Avalos complained in a Guardian election interview a few years ago that he didn't like people coming here telling us how to live. Oh the irony,
Why do you live in the USA?
Any more questions?
Texas unemployment rate 6.2%.
Current charge to rent a fourteen-foot U-Haul truck from SF to Austin: $1,445.
Current charge to rent a fourteen-foot U-Haul truck from Austin to SF: $627.
If job growth in California is so great, why does it cost more than twice as much to rent a moving truck from California to Texas, as the other way around?
Keep plucking that chicken, Redmond!
Texas still sucks, trust me on this. Why not move to that libertarian tax haven (not property taxes mind you) paradise if it is so desirable?
I may not, but many other people clearly are moving to Texas, suckiness or no.
Blue state California is rapidly falling into three groups:
The truly rich, who are fairly indifferent to costs and taxes. Very visible in San Francisco, but of course SF is a big, big 2% of the population of California.
Extremely well-compensated government employees, who get a lot better pay (and especially benefits) then they could get anywhere else.
The poor - California has a third of the welfare recipients in the United States, and much better welfare benefits than most other places.
Everyone else is fleeing, particularly the middle class, who are sensitive to California's high cost of living, high taxes, and the relatively poor quality of governmental services.
Tim's paradise increasingly has the income distribution of Guatemala - Texas and most other states have much less income inequality than California does.
So you agree with SEIU and the nonprofits that all of those tech workers are rich? Interesting.
Tech workers are a tiny, tiny fraction of the 38 million people in California.
The full range of tech workers are California's new middle class.
LOL. So the one million or so tech workers are California's "new middle class".
Pretty pathetic for a state with 38 million people in it.
Please, move to Texas and show me who's boss.
Too bad DYTTP. Another blow to your already tarnished credibility.
Here's an idea: don't make any more statements of "fact" unless you provide a URL to back them up.
Just sticking to formulations such as "I think" or "I believe" will be fine -- and then you can go on as usual to tell whatever lies you like; but no more making pronouncements as though they are valueable, because it's just obnoxious.
Yawn - as if you always provide URL's, lilli.
I think that you would be proud that California treats a third of the nation's indigent population so well.
LA Times good enough for you?
"The debate was as much about ideology as finances, and it carried particular weight in California, which has one-third of the country's welfare recipients but only one-eighth of its total population."
Come on, you should be proud of this achievement!
Lilli, you should get out of San Francisco, and go to the San Joaquin and Imperial valleys- then you might start believing how many welfare recipients there are in California.
Once you get away from the golden coast, California is Mississippi.
On the other hand, I didn't make a really strong effort, but I wasn't able to find any primary source information either validating the claim or disproving it: so that suggests to me that it's still very much up in the air.
One source I came up with appears to show that welfare spending in California is in parity with its population.
Obviously, if the money is in parity and benefits were particularly generous -- as I believe you also suggested -- then California's head count would have to be below average, not above.
Maybe different sources are claiming different things as welfare? Are food stamps welfare? Many states with Republican legislatures have drastically reduced welfare, but they still have hundreds of thousands of food stamp recipients.

but varies state to state--Texas and California actually have very close Gini Coefficients, 43rd and 44th most unequal of the 51 "states" including DC:
Here's a look at income inequality of the US over time:
And a comparison between the US and other countries:
Using the World Bank Gini %, the US has about the same inequality as Turkmenistan and Mauritania. Some notable countries with a more equal distribution: Chad, Cameroon, Pakistan. The United States has the most income inequality of any country in the so-called developed world--Europe, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. The numbers vary a little by the different ranking organizations and the different tables, but the US always comes out near the bottom of income equality of similarly situated countries. Click on the link and adjust the columns if you are interested.
In short, in the US, the rich are getting (way) richer, the poor are getting poorer, and the middle class is shrinking as its members move down towards poverty.
No matter our disagreements on the structural reasons why.
I agree, but this interview was pretty insightful regarding the problems facing California.
"As a result, California is turning into a two-and-a-half-class society. On top are the 'entrenched incumbents' who inherited their wealth or came to California early and made their money. Then there's a shrunken middle class of public employees and, miles below, a permanent welfare class. As it stands today, about 40% of Californians don't pay any income tax and a quarter are on Medicaid."
are concerning. We should be looking at ways we can mitigate those because it's not good for anyone. Tim, of course, will look to expropriation using public employee unions as the solution - which he always does. But the real answers don't lie in the idea of stealing from the rich to help the poor - they lie in attempting to flatten opportunity and extend it in from the coastal areas.
I'm always fascinated by the left's yearning for a return to the storied past of WPA programs and massive infrastructure improvements like the Interstate system and the trans-California canal. Those were not built using expensive union labor nor were they built under today's egregious public bidding rules which are designed to ensure wealth trickles upwards to the same sordid consortium of construction companies and union bosses. Had the rules we now have in place been there in the 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s - none of our major infrastructure projects would ever have been built. It's why we don't build anything right now and if we do it's hideously expensive and takes decades.
Union labor is only expensive in the private sector because productivity gains have gone to the business instead of being split with labor.
I'd be surprised if the interstates and post war infrastructure was not built by union labor.
bargaining for state employees until the 1970s, which coincided right with major increases in population and property values - creating the perfect storm which led to Prop 13. Pat Brown did not have to deal with state-mandated rules on EIRS, collective bargaining, minority-owned businesses or anything else. If he did nothing would ever have been built. You think the environmental movement today would even allow discussion of a canal moving water from northern to central & southern California? The golden age of California didn't end because of Prop 13 - it ended because too many people wanted their sticky little fingers in the pie and eventually there was none of the pie left for anyone but those specific constituencies.
build large infrastructure projects. Hence, it is possible, if not likely, that union labor built the highways and canals. I'm almost certain union labor built the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges.
Trust me I live in TX, born an raised here, lived in Los Angeles for 3 years and now I'm moving BACK to California, this time the Bay Area. Texas is not all that. Sure you can live comfortably and buy a 5 bedroom house for under $500K. But property taxes are high, homeowners insurance is high and the cost of living is rising here. If you have a family and want home it's the place to be, but the weather sucks. There are way too many conservative closed minded morons with guns mind you. And it's hot as heck. So Texas is not all that. Plus we have a governor that does not think education is important. Depends on what suits you. I'm at a stage in my life that I don't need a big house, apartment life suits me just fine (plus I own a home here in TX). So I will forgo living large, for better weather and less backwards yahoos.
And then there's the fahr aints...
And the roaches, and the mosquitos, humidty. And despite what people say, Texas does not have the most friendliest people. I think its due to the huge egos.
Omg, yes, I absolutely agree, they actually are very mean especially the women, and this is coming from a Los Angeles native

Fire Ants.
I would put away that mindset if I were you. You ought to study the stats a bit and realize that California is a hell-hole. Using the education + loans is just a load of turd to drag around when you need to find, not earn, a living. You're just talking about cultural aspects, but guess what? In this damned world, it's just luck to find civilian living, and then there's the basic right to stay alive. I think that these Californian ad bull is just some ploy to rake in a potential military recruitment, and that's just a privilege. I don't feel liberated when I have to get loans; it's good for one thing, but then you have obligations. @ this moment, I feel I should not be wasting time anymore so adios muchachos.
Haha, what a ridiculous piece of socialist propoganda. I know first hand of several businesses that are FLEEING communist CA this year for Free States all over the country.
No you don't.
So, can you tell me what about California is communist? Everytime I ask this question, no one seems to have an answer, because they don't actually know what "communism" or "socialism" is, just that it sounds bad.
Care to enlighten me?
Living in TX is like living inside rectum. It stinks in all directions. By far the worst place on earth.
and no fiscal deficit problems on the scale of CA.
They're doing something right.
Texas has a huge unfunded public sector pension liability. The GOP plans to stiff them in the future. Many wealthy Texans have beach front homes in California that they vacation in and don't pay California income taxes.
they only take vacations?
If they own property in CA then they pay property tax while consuming very little in the way of services.

Syringomyelia (sih-ring-go-my-E-lee-uh) is the development of a fluid-filled cyst (syrinx) within your spinal cord. Over time, the cyst may enlarge, damaging your spinal cord and causing pain, weakness and stiffness, among other symptoms.
Syringomyelia has several possible causes, though the majority of syringomyelia cases are associated with Chiari malformation, a condition in which brain tissue protrudes into your spinal canal. Other causes of syringomyelia include spinal cord tumors, spinal cord injuries and damage caused by inflammation around your spinal cord.
If syringomyelia isn't causing any problems, monitoring the condition may be all that's necessary. But if you're bothered by symptoms, you may need surgery.
Symptoms of syringomyelia usually develop slowly over time. If your syringomyelia is caused by Chiari malformation — a condition in which brain tissue protrudes into your spinal canal — symptoms may begin during your teenage years or early adulthood. In some cases, a fall, minor trauma, coughing or straining may trigger symptoms of syringomyelia, although none of these causes syringomyelia.
The following early signs and symptoms of syringomyelia may affect the back of your neck, shoulders, arms and hands first:
Other signs and symptoms of syringomyelia may include:
When to see a doctor
If you have any of the signs or symptoms associated with syringomyelia, see your doctor. Because many signs and symptoms of syringomyelia can be associated with other disorders, a thorough medical evaluation is important for accurate diagnosis.
If you've experienced a spinal injury, watch carefully for signs and symptoms of syringomyelia. Many months to several years may pass after an injury before syringomyelia develops. If you have syringomyelia symptoms, when you go for an evaluation make sure your doctor knows you had a spinal injury.
Although it's unclear exactly how and why it happens, when syringomyelia develops, cerebrospinal fluid — the fluid that surrounds, cushions and protects your brain and spinal cord — collects within the spinal cord itself, forming a fluid-filled cyst (syrinx).
The following conditions and diseases can lead to syringomyelia:
In some people, syringomyelia can become a progressive disorder and lead to serious complications. In others, there may be no associated symptoms and no intervention is necessary.
Complications that may occur as a syrinx enlarges or if it damages nerves within your spinal cord, include:
You're likely to start by first seeing your family doctor. However, in some cases when you call to set up an appointment, you may be referred immediately to a neurologist — a doctor who specializes in nervous system disorders, including diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles.
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared for your appointment. Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and what to expect from your doctor.
What you can do
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For syringomyelia some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions that arise during your appointment.
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Be as specific as you can when answering. Your doctor may ask:
What you can do in the meantime
Avoid doing anything that seems to worsen your symptoms. For many people with syringomyelia, straining can trigger symptoms, so try to avoid activities that involve heavy lifting or straining. Also, avoid sharply flexing your neck.
To diagnose syringomyelia, your doctor will begin by asking about your medical history and doing a complete physical examination.
If your doctor suspects syringomyelia, you'll likely undergo a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of your spine and spinal cord. An MRI is the most reliable tool for diagnosing syringomyelia.
Using magnetic fields and radio waves, an MRI produces 3-D, high-resolution images of your spine and spinal cord. If a syrinx has developed within your spinal cord, your doctor will be able to see it on an MRI. A dye or contrast medium can be injected for the test, and once it travels to your spine, it can enhance the MRI images. Over time, repeat MRIs can be used to monitor the progression of syringomyelia.
In some cases, syringomyelia may be discovered incidentally when a spine MRI or computerized tomography (CT) scan is done for other reasons.
Treatment for syringomyelia depends on the severity and progression of your signs and symptoms.
If syringomyelia is discovered on an MRI scan that's done for an unrelated reason, and it's not causing signs or symptoms, monitoring with periodic MRI and neurological exams may be all that's necessary. In rare cases, a syrinx may resolve on its own without treatment.
If syringomyelia is causing signs and symptoms that interfere with your daily life, or if signs and symptoms rapidly worsen, surgery is usually recommended. The goal of surgery is to remove the pressure the syrinx places on your spinal cord and to restore the normal flow of cerebrospinal fluid. The type of surgery you'll need depends on the underlying cause of syringomyelia.
Typically, surgery for syringomyelia includes one or more of the following:
Surgery doesn't always effectively restore the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, and the syrinx may remain, despite efforts to drain the fluid from it.
Follow-up care
Follow-up care after surgery is critical because syringomyelia may recur. You'll need regular examinations with your doctor, including periodic MRI tests, to assess the outcome of surgery. Other syrinxes may form, requiring additional surgery. Even after treatment, some signs and symptoms of syringomyelia may remain, as a syrinx can cause permanent spinal cord and nerve damage.
Taking the following steps may help reduce the effects of syringomyelia on your daily living.
Avoid activities that may make symptoms worse
If you've been diagnosed with syringomyelia, avoid any activity that involves heavy lifting, straining or putting excessive force on your spine. Examples of activities to avoid include:
Consider physical therapy
If syringomyelia causes ongoing neurological problems that decrease your mobility and activity — such as muscle weakness, pain, fatigue or stiffness — a physical therapist may be able to create an exercise program for you that can help reduce these symptoms. Talk to your doctor about physical therapists in your area who have expertise in neurological conditions.
Manage chronic pain
Chronic pain can be a problem with syringomyelia. If you're experiencing chronic pain, talk to your doctor about treatment options. Many medical centers have doctors who specialize in pain management. Often, the best approach for treatment of chronic pain due to syringomyelia is to have a health care team that includes your neurosurgeon, neurologist, a rehabilitation specialist and a pain management physician who can work together to create a plan that will best fit your situation.
Living with syringomyelia and its complications can be extremely difficult. You may feel as if syringomyelia affects every aspect of your life and would love to not think about it for a day, especially if you have constant reminders, such as chronic pain or nerve issues. This may leave you feeling anxious or depressed and may ultimately affect your relationships with friends and family, your work performance and the overall quality of your life. Having someone to talk with or lean on can be invaluable. Whether it's a trusted friend, counselor or therapist, you may find encouragement and comfort in a good listener.
Another source of support and information may be a syringomyelia support group. Your doctor may be able to recommend a local group, or you can find groups online. Support groups provide a forum for sharing experiences and can be good sources of information, offering useful or helpful tips for people with syringomyelia.

The low humidity for Roanoke Thursday is 27 percent, which is a prime condition for the flu virus to thrive according to researchers at Virginia Tech.
Virginia Tech Research Engineer Dr. Linsey Marr says, "It is very well established that the flu virus survives well at low humidity."
The numbers for December show that our area had a low humidity during the majority of December.
Marr, along with Virginia Tech-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine Virologist Dr. Elankumaran Subbiah, recently finished up two years of research that confirms the flu virus thrives in those conditions.
In order to get the facts about how the flu virus develops under different levels of humidity, they placed it in a humidity-controlled box inside a bio-safety cabinet for about 3 hours. After 3 hours the flu virus was cultured and placed in an incubator. Then, they could figure out how well the virus survived under different levels of humidity.
Our saliva is made up of protein and salt. The salt in our saliva is really the key. At humidity levels below 50 percent, salt crystallizes and doesn't hurt the virus. Once the virus is exposed to humidity between 50 and 90 percent, the conditions are toxic for flu.
"The salts become more concentrated and are more harmful to the virus," Marr says.
"The mid-range humidity is the one in which the virus cannot survive," Subbiah says.
So does that mean we should all try to keep our humidity between 50 and 60 percent because it's hard for flu to survive? It may help, but it is no guarantee.
"There are a lot of other factors that influence flu outbreaks," Marr says, "so this may be just one of them. "
"Depending on whether there are more people in the room or a change in school schedules, all of this will contribute to an extent," Subbiah says.
As we continue to deal with changing weather, that is actually the next step in the research. Scientists at Virginia Tech will be looking at how temperature affects the virus and its ability to spread.

Yes. I went to an Uncle Bob's Storage and they weren't as knowledgeable as this office in Lawrenceville, Georgia. B.J. Is excellent. He goes over and beyond the call of duty.Donna from Lawrenceville, GA
Very easy to work with answered all questions professionally and sold us on this space!Robert from Kennesaw, GA
This place is completely better than the other storage company I used. Everything was done in decency and in order with a continued smile. They explain everything to you to make sure you understand. If at any time I had a question they answered it to the best of there ability.Siobhan from Jonesboro, GA
I appreciated the very prompt, professional behavior, the knowledgeable information and the courtesy!Michele from Cartersville, GA
Very clean, well-maintained & seems very secure. Puts my mind at ease to store things in your facility.Tammy from Atlanta, GA
Just was not what I expected in comparison to previous storage facility. Uncle Bob's is clean, quiet, professional.Betty from scottdale, GA
I initially spoke with Kayla (I hope I remember her name correctly) she was very friendly, professional and helpful about reserving a storage unit for me. She also helped me with reserving a time slot for the moving truck. When we got to the uncle bob location, mike promptly greeted us and basically went over all the stuff and showed us to our storage unit. Overall I was very happy with my experience with uncle bobs at kennesaw. The price was the lowest in the area, too. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else.Robert from Kennesaw, GA
Frank and Nelson are true assets to the company!They have been a tremendous help to our Relocation Team.from Baton Rouge, LA
If I have an additional storage need in the future, you would have my business. Great facilities and accomodating staff. A+ !!Kevin from Atlanta, GA
The representative who I believe was named Kayla was very smart, quick, and professional. I am always a skeptical person but never got the idea that she was doing anything but trying to get me set up as quickly as possible and with the best deal. Two thumbs up!Michael from Kennesaw, GA

Well here's the second installment of my visit.
Training techniques used:
- Passing with two teams (one in pink bib and the other without). One thing I noticed was that torres gave the ball away constantly.
- Shooting practice (no-one got two goals/two shots)
Here are my initial thoughts on the match:
- Azpilicueta does a pre match prayer where he stands still for like 2 minutes and then does the cross thing across his chest.
- Proper wingers can hurt us such as that Jerome Thomas who I had earmarked from the start f the match to cause us a threat.
- Victor moses and Juan Mata were amazing and a constant threat.
- Marko marin is a proper winger and likes to hug the touchline and then run into the box. However, he was the right choice to be removed for hazard.
- David Luiz needs to calm down with the running into the opposition area. He needs to realise he's a central defender not a midfielder.
- Fernando torres gets caught offside a lot but as Stephen said it may be due to him being tired.
- We were pressing well because the Leeds fans were getting annoyed at the fact their players were constantly passing the ball back to their keeper.
Overall, we were lucky the keeper made a mistake at the beginning of the second half because that meant we were in control fro that point onwards.

Foxsports.com ranks Dolphins passing game 29th
By Brian Biggane
The passing game and defending the passing game were already expected to be two of the focal points of the Dolphins' preparation for the 2009 NFL season.
A FoxSports.com ranking of the top wide receiver/tight end packages only underscores their significance.
The ranking, compiled primarily for the use of fantasy players, slots Miami's passing game 29th in the 32-team league. Just as significantly, 12 of the Dolphins' 16 games in 2009 will be against teams ranked in the top 16.
Immediately after top-ranked Arizona come AFC East foes New England and Buffalo, each of whom the Dolphins will face twice. Next come New Orleans, San Diego and Houston, all of whom also appear on the Miami schedule.
After that come Atlanta (9th), Pittsburgh (12th), Tampa Bay (13th), Indianapolis (15th) and Carolina (16th). Joining Miami near the bottom of the list are the New York Jets (25th), Tennessee (26th) and Jacksonville (30th).
New England's lofty ranking is largely due to the return of Tom Brady and the possibility that Joey Galloway could return to top form as a complement to Randy Moss and Wes Welker. In Buffalo, the addition of Terrell Owens opposite burner Lee Evans means Josh Reed and Roscoe Parrish become even more dangerous as third and fourth options. It's expected the Bills will use all four wideouts and no tight end in many obvious passing situations.
The blurb on Miami begins "Somewhere, Mark Clayton and Mark Duper have to be shaking their heads." It concludes that Ted Ginn Jr. has to have a breakout year for the Dolphins passing game to pose any threat.
No mention is made of Greg Camarillo or rookies Patrick Turner or Brian Hartline, all of whom could play a significant role in upgrading the attack.

The paper was published Feb. 20. It suggests that there is a biological pathway underlying the observation that girls develop speech sooner than boys.
Edyta Zielinska at The Scientist has the details:
Measuring the amount of FOXP2 protein in the brain language areas of 4- and 5-year-old children who had recently died in accidents, the team found 30 percent more FOXP2 in girls than boys.
Interestingly, they found the exact opposite in the mice they studied — higher FOXP2 levels in boys. Language is a complicated phenomenon which most likely encompasses more than one gene, the authors warn, but this is the first sex difference they've seen in gene expression.

A few notable college names came off the board in the between the second set of five picks in the second round. Here are the 36th to 40th overall picks in the draft.
36. Detroit Pistons -- Terrico White, Guard, Ole Miss
He's an athletic combo guard, not too dissimilar from holdover Rodney Stuckey. At this point in the draft, he's about as good as it gets.
37. Milwaukee Bucks -- Darington Hobson, Forward, New Mexico
A point-forward (Hobson averaged 4.5 assists per game for the Lobos last season), Hobson is a very solid choice at this juncture.
38. New York Knicks -- Andy Rautins, Guard, Syracuse
Positives: he's a lights-out shooter and has underrated court vision. Negatives: he's old, not that athletic, and they might've been able to sign him as an undrafted free agent.
39. New York Knicks -- Landry Fields, Forward, Stanford
An under the radar scorer at Stanford, Fields -- like Rautins -- maybe could've been had as an undrafted free agent.
40. Indiana Pacers -- Lance Stephenson, Guard, Cincinnati
Here's what I had to say about Stephenson before the draft:
Calling his shot a work in progress is being generous (25% from three-point land), and his playmaking "skills" are nearly nonexistent as well. Cliffnotes version: Stephenson is a ball hog with indefensible shot selection, absent the talent to make it work.
As you might imagine, I'm not a fan of the pick.

Appearance- Pours up an okay amount of head which appears to have pretty good retention. The head is a light to medium beige while the body is a chestnut to chocolate brown that shows burgundy and maroon when held up to the light. Lacing tends to sheeting.
Nose- Fairly low key. I get some bubblegum, a mild note of cocoa, and slight evidence of chocolate. The chocolate and cocoa or much stronger from the bottle. I don't get any of the crisp citrus aroma that the website mentions. Very one-dimensional but still nice. Swirling shows a brief hint of an ester which might be oranges or raisins.
Taste- Starts off with a sweet front that borders on cloying. Some citrus (mostly orange), a strong note of raisins (maybe even plums), and even a small tendency toward soy sauce. Shows mild chocolate and cocoa from the middle to the finish where there is a slight woody bitterness. Slight chalk on the finish as well. No real flaws but lacks presence and complexity. Actually, the overly sweet raisin notes and suggestion of soy sauce does seem like a slight flaw. The mild chocolate and cocoa balance it well but not enough cancel out its effects. Pretty much just an above average beer. Some pine and resin on the finish. Even a tiny bit of earwax. Some caramel on the middle which has a slight burnt quality on the finish.
Mouthfeel- Just below medium bodied with low carbonation. Seems a little thin. This might actually be undercarbonated. Slight hints of syrup to the texture. It is pretty smooth and this redeems it to some extent.
Drinkability- Pretty easygoing with no signs of heat but it's also pretty boring. I think I paid under two bucks for a bottle and I guess this goes for about 8 bucks a six pack. Okay but not something I would purchase again.
Overall- Just above average with hints of just being average. The cloying aspects mellow and make the beer more accessible but they don't make it more interesting. Possibly worth at try but I wouldn't dwell on that decision to long.

Pours a thin head on a dark, dark brown colored body.
The aroma is a rich malt, caramel and a little lemon zest.
The taste is malty sweet forward, molasses in the middle and finishes with a mild bitter note.
The texture is a little sticky with low to moderate carbonation.
An enjoyable sipper.

Poured from bomber to glass. Great, dark color with a slight ruby hue. Thick, tan head and left lots of lace to decorate the glass. I didn't pick up crisp citrus aroma as listed by the brewer. It was a tad sweet with coffee/bitter aftertaste. Medium viscosity, above average essence of alcohol. I pulled it out of a fridge at 37deg but as it warmed to room temp the flavor and mouthfeel was enhanced. It was a real enjoyable beer. I'll be drinking again, for sure. A bit of discrepancy on style per the brewer's site, this one and RB. Others list as Dunkelweiss/Dunkelweizen.

It wasn't 10 Degrees Below when I drank this, perhaps 10 Degrees Celsius above. A full 22 ounces to drink. On to the beer:
Very dark brown and almost black in color, topped with half an inch of head and decent lacing.
The aroma starts off like a winter warmer; solid toastiness upfront, fennel, a note of licorice, allspice, molasses. Surprisingly complex is the aroma.
The taste is acceptable, even if it doesn't equal the quality of the aroma. Flavors include figs, plum, a vague toastiness, and molasses. The alcohol hides itself well, but despite its size, I was hoping for a fuller mouthfeel.
One of many ways to be happy during the colder season is to drink this winter warmer. It's....hold on....it's a weizenbock? I wouldn't have suspected.

Great winter beer that tastes more like Jubelale than a Weizenbock. I got lots of hops and lots of malt and a very smooth luscious mouthfeel. Everything I wanted in a Winter Warmer. Will need to buy a few of these while they last . Great stuff and a little under the radar

On a Thursday morning when rounds in the mid-60s were available, Tiger Woods wrapped up his first 18 holes of the PGA Championship a disappointing 1-over, six shots back of clubhouse leader Jim Furyk. Woods started well, but he finished with a double bogey to card a 3-over 38 on his second nine.
It was a round of mixed results for Woods, who was solid with the putter on his first nine, but missed chances and dropped those three shots coming into the clubhouse on the back. Save for a misjudged speed on his first stroke of the day, he had his putter rolling perfectly through his first nine. He had a good measurement of the speed of the greens, which he was concerned about last week. His lag putts left him several tap-in pars, and he saved a couple with steady strokes from seven to 10 feet, including at his first hole of the day. Woods got to 2-under on the front when he canned a moderate-length birdie putt at No. 15. But that would be his last red number of the day.
The putter and his wedge covered up some mishit irons on his first nine, as Woods repeatedly missed greens in regulation. After he made the turn, that sloppiness caught up with him and his putter, specifically on No. 2, could not even things out. Woods missed a short birdie putt that hit the edge of the hole, a perfect and easy chance passed by on a day when the players need to post.
Like Firestone last week, there are only two par-5s at Oak Hill. Tiger has historically owned all the par-5s at the majors and it's his most constant path to victory. He played his first par-5, No. 13, conservatively, taking iron off the tee and making it a true three-shot hole. It paid off, and Woods stuck his third shot, a wedge, within a foot of the hole for his first birdie of the day. But on his second par-5, No. 4, Woods made a mess and finished with an ugly bogey. It was the first time he took driver off the tee, and he immediately sent it right off the fairway. That foreclosed the chance at getting home in two, which his playing partner Keegan Bradley accomplished. His next two shots weren't pretty, either, as his layup barely advanced out of the rough and his approach shot was left in a greenside bunker. He could not get up-and-down for a par he would have considered disappointing; the bogey undoubtedly left him fuming.
Even after that ugly bogey, Woods hung on and managed to keep it together despite several mishit and fat irons down the stretch. He consistently left his approach shots short or wide of the green.
It finally caught up with him on his final hole of the day. His drive just missed the fairway, trickling into the first level of Oak Hill's graduated rough. He was on the right side, forcing an aggressive pass at a cut shot up the hill to the ninth green.
But the attempt to bend it around and up to the green fell well short of the putting surface, as the ball nestled down into the thick rough in front. Tiger tried to hack it out and get up-and-down to save par, but instead his ball barely advanced into the bunker in front of the green.
Unlike his first nine holes, Woods could not get up-and-down from the sand to make bogey, settling for a disastrous double on his final hole of the day. The hole dropped him out of the red and, at the time, seven shots back of Furyk.
It certainly wasn't the same Tiger we saw last week at Firestone. Woods will be furious about the finish and missed opportunities on a course that was gettable, but there is still a move to be made to get back into it on Friday. The irons, however, must be more crisp, or Woods may be too far behind before we even reach the weekend in Rochester.

Caddo Parish Commissioner Joyce Bowman was honored Friday for her years of dedication to the community.
The Jess Merkle Foundation dedicated the Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club Gym in her name.
Bowman is battling cancer, and the disease is in an advanced stage. Bowman has just finished her first full week of chemotherapy.
The Salvation Army says Bowman has made a huge impact on their group. They praised her hard work and "dedication" to the organization.
They hope the plaque on the wall will inspire many young people to live up to her strength.
Bowman says she's touched her community would honor her in this way.
Meanwhile, a prayer vigil and love day celebration are being planned for the commissioner. The event, to be called "Friends of the Fighter," will be held August 16 at Praise Temple Full Gospel Baptist on Greenwood Road in Shreveport.

NEWS RELEASE 04 February 2012
Judiciary Guilty of Criminal Acts
John Hemming MP opens 2-week demo at Royal Courts of Justice
The Campaign for Truth and Justice[1] is staging a demonstration every day from 9.30am to 4.30 to, once again, highlight the plight of victims of miscarriges and perversion of justice. On its home page, the Campaign spells out in general terms what Victims Unite[2] publishes by way of Cases as Stories[3]: unlawful imprisonments, human rights abuses, fraudulent bankruptcies and child snatching[4] as the tip of an iceberg of white collar crimes, where the Judiciary covers up the crimes committed by public authorities such as the NHS, Local Councils, their legal teams and Social Services.
John Hemming MP[5] has ample experience with parents whose children were taken: he says that the evidence is that about half of his over 1,600 cases on file are unreliable. In 2006, 200 such parents ended up as Secret Prisoners[6], for they are convicted in secret family courts. But it can be worse: their are secret prisoners whose legal capacity to decide has been removed from them by the Court of Protection – only to defraud them of their wealth and assets. John Hemming MP will join the demonstrators around 3.30pm.
