What is the treatment for bronchiectasis?
Comment on this Read 1 Comment
Bronchiectasis is not a curable disease. Instead, the goal of treatment is control of secretions and preventing infections. In some situations, where the disease is limited to one area of the lung, surgery may be a possibility to remove the area affected by the disease.
Basic lung hygiene is required for all patients with bronchiectasis:
Chest physical therapy
The basis for bronchiectasis treatment is chest physical therapy to assist in coughing up secretions, and antibiotics to prevent infection.
Since the smooth muscles that surround the bronchial tubes are damaged, mechanical ways to clear secretions are used to increase air flow and decrease the risk of infection. Chest physical therapy uses percussion or clapping on the back to help loosen secretions and then changing positions of the body to allow gravity to help those secretions to be coughed up. Chest clapping may be done by a physical therapist, but family members can be taught to do this routinely at home. Mechanical devices such as chest clappers or vests also may be considered.
Antibiotics may be prescribed to treat an infection that occurs or they may be used as prophylaxis to prevent infection. The choice of antibiotics depend upon the clinical situation and may be guided by blood or sputum cultures that will try to identify the bacteria causing the infection, and the type of antibiotic that will effectively treat the infection. Many patients may be kept on a revolving course of different antibiotics over their lifetime. Inhaled antibiotics have been used in addition to medications taken by mouth. In patients with more severe lung infections, intravenous antibiotics may be required.
Medications may also be used to loosen secretions, dilate bronchial tubes and decrease inflammation, hopefully decreasing the risk of infection.
Routine used of inhaled steroids (for example, fluticasone propionate oral inhaler [Flovent]) using a hand held puffer may decrease production of secretions, allow dilation of bronchial tubes, and prevent progression of bronchiectasis. Inhaled steroids may not have enough anti-inflammatory activity, and in unusual cases, steroids taken by mouth (prednisone) may also be required.
Bronchodilator (for example, albuterol, ProAir, Ventolin HFA, Proventil HFA) and anticholinergic (for example, ipratropium bromide inhaler [Atrovent], tiotropium bromide inhalation powder [Spiriva]) inhaled medications dilate bronchial tubes and increase air flow into the lungs, making it easier for secretions to be cleared. The medication can be inhaled using a hand held puffer or with a nebulizer machine. Often, combination therapy with both a bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroid (fluticasone and salmeterol oral inhaler [Advair], budesonide and formoterol fumarate dihydrate [Symbicort]) are prescribed.
Home oxygen supplementation may be needed if lung function decreases to the point atmospheric air does not supply enough oxygen to the body.
Some patients have only a small area of bronchiectasis, and surgery may be an option to remove the small segment of affected lung in these individuals. Surgery may be considered in other situations to remove part of a lung where infection cannot be controlled or where excessive bleeding cannot be managed.

How to Enable Online Consumers to Immerse Themselves in Your Brand
The most memorable and engaging online shopping experiences deliver more than just a simple listing of products. They provide a complete a complete, cross-platform system of content and context to create a compelling story about how those products look or how they can be used in the real world.
Let's take a look at what you can do to get consumers to immerse themselves in your brand.
Getting Social
Brands go to great lengths to give the same experience to consumers whether in store or browsing through a lookbook online. They give consumers options to share product information through various social media channels and make certain offers available (both in store or online), which enables consumers to feel as though they are a part of your brand.
Zmags makes it easy to add social share buttons to your online publications, and even to your product windows so you can give your users the ability to share specific products with their friends and followers.
Bonus Tip: Offer a discount if a purchase is made through your online publication for those consumers who share your publication.
Getting Visual
The more senses you engage, the greater the chances are that your consumers will purchase a product or products. For example, captivating videos can add a level of engagement and excitement to the shopping experience. Allowing users to see the products in use can really give them the ability to visualize themselves using your brand.
Adding video to an online lookbook is quite simple and can add a unique element of engagement within your brand. Longer engagement times in store, on your website and in your online publications increase the chance for purchase or the chance for more purchases.
Bonus Tip: Keep your videos to 30-45 seconds in length, at most. 'Vine' style videos (6 seconds on average) are also effective in an online publication setting as well.
Getting Out
This might sound as if I am contradicting myself given what I have been speaking about so far in this post, but give your users a chance to get out…and by get out, I mean checkout. A seamless check-out process in which consumers don't have to leave the platform or device they are shopping from to complete their order will delight the customer, as well as increase your rate of completed transactions.
If you're users are on a tablet or mobile phone, chances are the publication is taking up the entire screen which means checking out requires an additional step in the process. By adding a checkout button to your publication, you can eliminate that extra step that could be the difference between completing the process and leaving the items in the cart believe it or not. Give your users the chance to get out, and they will most likely look to get back in sooner rather than later.
Bonus Tip: Having the option to continue shopping or check out while your users are in your publication is another great way to give them the options they are looking for.
Collectively, these features will enable you to deliver a rich, immersive brand experience that is consistent across all digital touchpoints, and give that experience more of a 'scene' as opposed to a 'screen' feel. How are you enabling your consumers to immerse themselves in your brand?

Fresh Start Diner has hallmarks of an American diner such as all-day breakfast starting as early as 7 a.m. Within these traditional parameters, however, the culinary team puts its own spin on the classic diner menu. Into a 14-inch pancake, they stuff vanilla ice cream and fruit or chocolate filling. Ham, crab cakes, corned-beef hash, or portobello mushrooms crown plates of eggs benedict. At 10:30 a.m. the diner introduces its lunch menu, which includes caesar salads with special house dressing and turkey melts. Fresh Start serves pancakes, omelets, salads, and sandwich entrees and bread including gluten-free products from Mrs. P?s Gluten Free Bakery.
Michael Petrakis immigrated to America in 1972 from the island of Crete, where dining is an integral part of social life. In opening Michael's, Petrakis aimed to bring the community some of the warm hospitality of Crete, an attitude embodied in his annual Thanksgiving dinners. Every year since 1983, he and his wife Anna have solicited the help of their staff and a dozen volunteers to serve free holiday dinner to everyone who comes through their doors––an average of 1,400–2,000 meals.
The quaint dining room at Michael's relies on homey touches such as stained glass windows and dangling flower baskets. Illuminated by natural light from large picture windows, diner-style tables support dishes ranging from Greek gyros to pizzas and build-your-own pasta. Those dishes are the work of Dino Tsarnas, a veteran of Cleveland Grill. He brings skills acquired there to a selection of Greek appetizers. Between trips to the restaurant's salad bar, guests can sip a glass of wine or connect to the restaurant's free WiFi.

FAR: I would think your main hope to come out of this without a penalty is to get a copy of the form where BOA checked off the funds were being rolled over into another BOA IRA account. I would get to the bank manager where the form was done and see if he can do something to send in a "corrected" form to IRS showing the other 1099 INT was in error. When it comes to IRAs we have to scrutinize everything the banks do as they will make errors many times. However, they should take the responsibility for this problem and work it out so you do not have to pay the penalty . If their form indicated it was an IRA account, I think "they" should have to undo this problem for you.

I believe you meant "no phase detect AF", which is what the addition of the AF chip with the mirror offers.
If we think of the mirror as locked for the EVF, the LCD on the back of a DSLR is technically an EVF during Live View. Also, some Mirrorless cameras offer Phase detect by using pixels on the sensor itself dedicated to the job, like the Nikon 1 series.
I still cannot see why people advocate for one side or the other. The two (DSLR and Rangefinder-style) form factors have been around for a very long time, and have co-existed peacefully. No reason to kill one in favour of the other now.
Yeah sorry phase rather than contrast.
It just seems to me that theres little need to lose weight with DSLR's that are going to be used with a large zoom lens anyway so why give up an OVF when it shouldnt stop you having the advanatges of an EVF aswell.
My guess would be that in the coming years the high end market will be divided between DSLR's based around zooms and rangefinder similar to this new Fuji based around primes.

Once again County Airports teamed up with the U.S. Marine Corps in its annual Toys For Tots campaign that collects new, unopened and unwrapped toys for distribution to children whose parents may not be able to afford Christmas gifts. Toys were delivered to Ramona Airport and Fallbrook Airpark by every means imaginable. They came by car, truck, van, bicycle, and yes, as would be expected, airplane. Several pilots loaded up their private aircraft and flew toys in from distant locations from around the County. U.S. Marines were stationed at Ramona Airport and Fallbrook Airpark for temporary assignments on two Saturdays in December where they collected toys and then loaded them into military trucks and ultimately transferred to Santa's sleigh.
Thanks to everyone who donated, help collect, and flew in the toys. You made Christmas just a bit brighter for scores of children once again.
Boxes of toys await pickup by U.S. Marines at Ramona Airport December 7. The airport event collects more toys than any other location in San Diego, except for the San Diego Chargers game with 60,000 fans present.

In an earlier post I noted that "gay men rape little boys." To which a reader responded:
I have no doubt that there is truth to this. But don't straight men also rape little boys, and not all gay men rape little boys? Of course, any child rape whether done by a gay or straight man to a little boy or girl is an abomination from the pit of hell and grievous sin.
But I'm wondering what evidence exists that gay men rape boys at a higher rate than straight men do?
To which I respond:
First, there are no straight men raping little boys. "Straight" means naturally ordered sexuality where the object of desire is the opposite sex. To rape young minors of one's own sex is the opposite of "straight." Romans 1 declares sodomy to be against nature which is the opposite of straight. It's true some gay men are married and have had children by their wives, but this doesn't make them straight.
Second, if what we're looking for is evidence from so-called "social science" for gay men having a propensity toward the rape of young boys (pederasty), I could provide some, but it wouldn't matter. Social science is not science, really. Or I should say science is not objective, really--particularly the "social sciences." Social scientists are like preachers: churches hire pastors who tell us what our itching ears want to hear and society hires experts who tell it what it wants to hear. Society wants to hear that sodomy is normal... and sodomites ("Gay men") pose no threat to us or our children. So of course the Academy is pleased to provide teachers of social science who are delighted to produce all kinds of studies proving gay is normal and gay men and lesbians pose no threat to our children. Our tax dollars fund their studies providing lots of stats that show it does no harm to a child for him to be the product of a gay man donating sperm through a turkey baster to a lesbian couple, and children of such moral crimes are no worse off than children of a husband and wife who make fruitful love. They also obligingly provide us stats proving it does no harm for a child to be raised by two lesbians or two gay men rather than a father and mother.
There's no end to social scienctists scratching our ears.
There has been a sea-change in our public policy and laws based on the evidence of social scientists and their stats has paved the way and justified that sea-change. Their studies prove to us that there's no damage to society or its citizens caused by mothers hiring doctors to murder their babies. There's no associative emotional or spiritual trauma. Their studies assure us it's fine for single men or women to adopt a child. The lack of a father or mother has no associative trauma. They promise us it's fine for children to have people come into their public school classroom and demonstrate how to put condoms on penises using bananas as props. There's no associative trauma. It's fine to change language so that the male inclusive is removed from common usage. There's no truth lost. It's fine for judges to decline to declare fault in divorce. There's no associative damage to father, mother, or children. It's necessary to remove corporal punishment from our schools and homes. There's no associative damage to our children or society.
I could continue, but what's the point?
Actually, the point is that I find it heart-rending how faithlessly timid and fearful Christians are. If we'd approach so-called objective social science through the Word of God instead of the Word of God through subjective, ideological, propagandistic lying social science, we'd not spend our lives feeling insecure and denying the truths we know from the Word of God. It's time for the people of God, let alone men of God, to witness to the Gospel of the Lordship of Jesus Christ and His coming Judgment to our beloved nation and culture lost in its bondage to lies. It's time for the people of God to love our neighbors.
And if we love our neighbors, we'll care enough about their children to tell them that throughout history the main manifestation of homosexuality has been older man/young boy called "pederasty," and we will warn them not to allow gay men access to their young sons. Never in history has there been a society that has men of the same age living monogamously as husband and wife. For centuries young boys have been streetwalking in metropolitan areas and their johns haven't been straight women, let alone straight men. Gay men have paid them for the privilege of raping them. Gay men have raped little boys in my churches. Gay men want very young men and boys. Their perversion has always been closely associated with pederasty and Christians who think it's kind to gay men not to know anything about the history of pederasty and not to warn others against it have no love for gay men or their potential victims.
Whether or not they are living with one man or one woman and claiming monogamy, gay men are horribly promiscuous. Really, how could anyone be surprised? Remove woman from any of man's sexuality and you have the nightmare of the gay deathstyle, which is to say disease and drugs and alcohol and unprotected sex and sexual partners in multiples that are mind-boggling and an average life expectancy radically less than heterosexual men.
You also have rampant predatory crimes against adolescent and pre-adolescent boys. Those who refuse to see the real and present threat gay men pose to little boys are partly responsible when those little boys are raped. Refusing to recognize the danger, they took no steps to warn and guard against it.
Yes, of course there are crimes against little girls by straight men that must be guarded against, also. But the rape of young girls is not intrinsic to the sexuality of straight men as pederasty (the rape of young boys) is to sexuality of mature gay men in bondage to their homosexual perversion.

(Note: I could have provided endless links on this subject but it's so very obvious and reading such links only lowers our God-given inhibitions.)
Such were some of you?
Dear Mrs. McKeown,
I pray that when your race is run and the actions of life are all turned to memories, you will not be found to have been one of those women who was always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. May the time of questioning give place -- and soon! -- to a time of action and application, for you and me and all of us who name the name of Christ. For the time is short!
(1) I appreciate your clarification and reply. I often tend to see the little picture (prevalence of gay men sexually assaulting little boys, vs. straight men sexually assaullting little boys) rather than the overall effect of this serious problem on all of society, though.
(2) Also, this is only applicable to the RC Church, but I'm wondering if their permanent deacons, who can marry and have children, have a lower prevalence of rape/sexual assualt against little boys than do RC priests who have been shown to be gay?
(3) Finally, this is somewhat off-topic since it doesn't relate to sexual assualt on boys by gay priests, but I read about a study conducted by a psychiatrist working at a prominent academic medical center, who had performed research that showed that with highly motivated patients (most of whom were Christian or orthodox Jews) some could repair their sexual orientation. Some considered them thenselves straight, had attrraction to the opposite sex, had dated, and even married and har children. A second group didn't change their sexual orientation, but found themselves able to live celibate lives. A third group, had trouble drifting between celibacy and acting out their sexual orientation.
The results were not what he had expected. He wrote up his results for presentation at the American Psychiatric Association national conference. The program committee - with great reluctance - gave him space for a poster session.
I sometimes wonder how many other researchers like this doctor are out there on the fringes or squelched by the mainstream (often "politically correct" ) leadership of their professional associations.
P.S. I apologize for the hodge-podge list of questions/comments in this post.
Speaking of not letting gay men near our children, and particularly boys, I recently heard encouraging news from my former school in the Cincinnati area (Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy - I attended 1st - 12th grades). They were about to hire an elementary teacher for their downtown Cincy elementary campus and had actually offered him the job. However, some of the board suspected he was gay and one board member outright asked him. Upon confirmation he was gay, they rescinded the offer. They received a firestorm from the press and I think the guy was deciding if he would press discrimination charges last I heard. I'm thankful for their stance for God's Word and the protection of the children in their school. I sent the headmaster an email thanking him and the board for standing up for God's Word and encouraging him. Pray for them as they fight for Truth and stand up for God's Word.
Clergy who perform same sex marriage might as well tie a milestone around their necks a fall into the sea, for they are condoning a grievous sin that will send these poor souls to an eternity of endless tourment.
I came across this story this morning and thought it worth mentioning here -
"S.F. gay rights advocate arrested over child porn"
You mentioned that you weren't going to include links, so let me know if this is not what you need here... It just seemed very "fresh"....
I wonder if Sue is aware of the organization NAMBLA. North American Man Boy Love Association. Perhaps a visit to their website will enlighten her as to how wicked and vile such men are. Thanks brothers for standing boldly for The Lord.
What is the likelihood/frequency of lesbians displaying the same sort of predatory behaviours with teenage females, that you describe for gay men?
I was wondering if you could provide some clarification on this.
I always assume that a man who molests a boy is homosexual but that a man who is homosexual is not necessarily tempted toward boys.
Scripture does teach the downward spiral of sin, that a man who crosses one boundary will also cross others, that he will be hard-hearted, having justified his sin intellectually and strengthened the tyranny of his flesh.
But you're not really saying that are you? I guess I have bought the line that molestation is something like rape, primarily about violence and somehow separate from homosexuality though usually comorbid with it.
I try to be wary of anyone who's around my kids, being diligent while also trusting God.
In any case, thank you.
I'm not trying to start an argument with you, but just because I had some honest questions doesn't mean that I don't believe that any child sexual abuse, especially gay men to young boys, is a particularly heinous sin. In fact, I think I used words to that effect in my original post.
I'm probably stating the obvious, but you definitely speak the truth here. Preach it, brother.
I think this is just semantics at a certain point. Call these men (and women) what you will, the issue we're discussing right now is the abomination of pederasty, and how it's not always who you think it is- that what looks on the outside like a man or woman in a healthy, normal marriage is by no means someone free from these twisted desires. Just like we are all afflicted with twisted desires in one area of life or another. I say that not to minimize the atrocity of pederasty, just to point out that at the end of the day, the words are words, the gravity of sin's the thing whether we call the perpetrator "gay" or "straight."
>>> the gravity of sin's the thing
Mr. Keane, I thought you said "the gravity of the sin's the thing" (this particular kind of sin) and I was about to agree with you. If you are talking about sin in general (putting the degradation of these perversions on a level with every other sin) I can't go with you.
If we must speak of these things, let us do so with an increasingly sharpened, not dulled, horror toward this sin that stinks with the stench of hell and takes our children there.
Maybe that's what you were saying.
I really hate that I'm yet again commenting about a homosexual issue, but here we are. Also, to clarify, I'm "College Jay." I figured it was time to drop the nickname, though if for consistency's sake you'd like me to keep it, I can.
I really don't know what to say to this. I was never tempted to harm a little boy. I don't know any of my homosexual friends -- former or active -- who have been, either. Professionally, I'm a K-12 certified teacher. I have a young nephew. I've been a camp counselor and worked with the youth in my church. In fact, the first Christians to really show me grace and love did so by not assuming that my struggle with same-sex attractions equated to pedophilia. Because it doesn't. Believe it or not, all my relationships were with men my age, and they actually were monogamous. This might go back to what I said a few posts ago about trusting what a persons says when he or she tells you where they're at.
I mean, it kind of sucks when people assume you're a danger to children just because some of the other people who struggle or engage with the same sin are dangerous. Some heterosexual men rape little girls. Some homosexual men rape little boys. The thing that almost all abusers have in common is that they were abused themselves, but many of us developed homosexual desires without having been abused, and I'm not trying to play the victim here. I'm just saying that words like this hurt.
It's loving to be warned about the dangers, spiritual and earthly, of one's sin, but it's not loving to be lied about. So I just hope that when you do meet someone who struggles with same-sex attraction, you don't immediately assume that they're pedophiles. There's enough shame and guilt associated with this sin already. It's pretty unbearable to be thought of as a child molester, especially when the idea of sexual contact with a child is as nauseating to me as it is to, well, pretty much everyone. At least make a disclaimer that not all homosexual men are tempted this way, because they really aren't. Even most ex-gay ministries, who should be trusted as a source in all of this, do a lot of hard work to differentiate between someone tempted by homosexuality and someone tempted by pederasty. Historically they might indeed be linked, but that doesn't mean they are today.
I mean, just imagine if the shoe was on the other foot, and what it must be like to be thought of as a child molester when the thought has never, ever crossed your mind. Imagine what it's like for someone like me to be reading this. It's tough.
Dear Jay,
There's much in your comment that we could debate, but I'm not sure I know how to do it over the internet. There are recurrent indications throughout your post, however, of a common and devastating mistake we sinners make. I want to address that mistake for the sake of all the readers here.
Whenever we struggle with a particular sin, we're inclined to think we understand the nature of that sin better than anyone, especially better than shepherds who have never engaged in it.
Now sometimes that's true because there are shepherds who cultivate ignorance and naiveté. But you know the Bayly Brothers aren't those kinds of shepherds. Therefore, I want to challenge you to remember that
There are things, many things about your heart that you don't know yet, and many things about my heart that I don't know yet. We are not the perfect keepers of our hearts or their temptations. For that reason, it's better at times like this, to quietly let the kinds of warnings we read in this post soak in instead of worrying that people might get the wrong idea about us.
Most sincerely,
Adam Spaetti,
Ruling Elder
Dear Jay,
Reading Tim's response, I realize I should have acknowledged that I too found some of your points valid. I also disagreed with some. But as I said earlier, I'm not great at dealing with a deeply personal comment like yours over the internet. It doesn't mean you shouldn't have written it, by any means; I'm just not that good at blogging.
My main point was to warn us all (not just you) to not let the "yeah, but" qualifications cause us to miss a warning we didn't even know we needed.
Adam Spaetti
After thinking about it, I should have cooled off a bit before I commented. Mr. Spaetti, you're absolutely right about the fact that qualifications can cause us to miss warnings. I was responding mostly with my feelings, and while I do think I brought up some valid points, most of what I said could have been summed up with: "This hurts" or, more accurately, "This reminds me of ways in which I've been hurt by so-called Christians in the past." That's not anyone's fault.
I totally understand that protection of children takes absolute precedence over anything else, especially over something as flimsy as hurt feelings. I also understand that this could lead to situations or attitudes that could be considered "unfair." The unfairness is worth the extra security for children, I suppose. I understand that.
I just hope that moderation, love, grace, and individual understanding is used here. I don't claim to be an expert on the sin of homosexuality, but I do know about myself.
Dear Jay,
You addressed everything I was about to try to address. God love you. The struggle against sin is hard, and lifelong. Fight on, brother.
Please, will you consider coming to the ClearNote Fellowship conference next Friday and Saturday in Bloomington? Meeting in person would be such a help I think in the shared work here on the blog. Thanks for contributing here, I hope you continue to do so.
That's a very kind offer. I'd love to one day, but I think at this point finances and work commitments don't allow for it.
And I think I learn far more here than I contribute. I have an extreme amount of respect for the Bayly brothers and the way they speak simple truths so boldly and lovingly. If my questions or comments ever got in the way of that truth, I'd stop immediately.
I'll be honored to pay your registration fee, and we'll find a church family for you to stay with. If you're within driving distance, please do come. Let me know if you will and I'll get the ball rolling.
I'm just not within driving distance. Still, I'm humbled by your generosity.

Coal Ministry asks producers to take part in procurement bids
Independent power producers (IPP) with coal block allocations must participate in the bids for power procurement called for by discoms.
Discoms are distribution utilities that procure power and distribute it.
Failure to do so may lead to cancellation of coal block allocations.
The Coal Ministry, in a communication to such IPPs, said it had been noticed that many developers to whom coal blocks had been allocated were not participating in the bids or were quoting higher tariff almost similar to projects that had coal linkages.
Sources said such IPPs were also told that it could be made a condition in the allocation letter even for the already allocated coal blocks.
The communiqué to developers pointed out that a large number of coal blocks had been allocated to the private sector for both IPPs and captive power producers. The Government's expectation, while allocating the blocks, was that the benefits of the low cost of coal from the blocks would be passed on to consumers in the form of lower electricity tariff.
The Chief Financial Officer of a leading power producer, who has operative coal blocks, confirmed receipt of the directive.
Almost all power producers have long-term power purchase agreements with utilities, but not necessarily for the entire quantum of their generation.
CAG estimate
The Coal Ministry directive comes at a time when the CAG is expected to come out with its final report.
The CAG has criticised the allocation of coal blocks and is in the process of finalising the 'undue benefits' bestowed on those who had got the allotments.
Industry experts anticipate that the Government auditor's estimates of the loss to the exchequer on account of the allocations to be about Rs 2 lakh crore.
Experts also pointed out CAG observations were not off the mark as the recent submissions made to bids called for by Andhra Pradesh indicate. While quotes, in general, averaged close to Rs 5 a unit, one developer with coal blocks quoted Rs 5.27 a unit. There were quite a few bids from Rs 4.29 to Rs 5.78 a unit from producers with coal linkages.
Some imported coal-based projects and gas-based developers bid over Rs 6 a unit. The requirement was for a medium term of three years.

Thread: Tonsillitis Cures
Tonsillitis Cures
This should help Mr. Anderson:
I take garlic soup about 2 times a week, and this is the first time ever that I have gone through winter without getting a cold!! I peel a clove of garlic and cut them in half lengthwise. Then I boil it for a couple of minutes in 1.5 cup water and add a pinch of salt, teaspoon of butter, a pinch of pepper and sprinkle with nutmeg. I take is as a soup as the garlic is soft enough to be eaten. Works wonders for me.
Tonsillitis treatment using Lime
Lime is one of the most effective remedies in the treatment of acute tonsillitis. A fresh lime squeezed in a glass of warm water, with four teaspoons of honey and a quarter teaspoon of common salt, should be sipped slowly in such cases
Tonsillitis treatment using Milk
Milk has been found valuable in tonsillitis. A glass of pure boiled milk, mixed with a pinch uf turmeric powder and pepper powder, should be taken every night for three nights in the treatment of this condition. It will bring beneficial results
Tonsillitis treatment using Vegetable Juices
Juices of carrot, beet, and cucumber, taken individually or in combination, are especially beneficial. The formula proportion recommended, when used in combination is 300 ml of carrot juice, 100 ml of beet juice, and 100 ml of cucumber juice
Tonsillitis treatment using Banafsha Flowers
Banafsha flowers, botanically known as Viola odorata, are beneficial in the treatment of tonsillitis. About 12 gm of these flowers should be boiled in 50 ml of milk. This milk should be taken hot after being filtered. The filtered banafsha can also be lightly fried in ghee and worn round the throat as a poultice at night
Tonsillitis treatment using Fenugreek Seeds
A gargle made from fenugreek seeds is very effective in severe cases of tonsillitis. To make such a gargle, two tablespoons of fenugreek seeds should be allowed to simmer for half an hour in a litre of water and then set aside to cool. The entire quantity should be used the same day as a soothing gargle. It will have beneficial results
Tonsillitis Diet
Water and orange juice combination
To begin with, the patient should fast for three to five days, by which time the serious symptoms should subside. Nothing but water and orange juice should be taken during this time
All-fruit diet
After the acute symptoms of tonsillitis are over, the patient should adopt an all-fruit diet for the next three or four days. Thereafter he may gradually embark upon a well-balanced diet, with emphasis on seeds, nuts, grains, vegetables, and fruits
Avoid spices, condiments and sour substances
The patient should avoid spices and condiments as they tend to irritate the throat. Sour substances like curds, buttermilk, and fried foods should also be avoided
Other Tonsillitis treatment
Warm-water enema and exercises
Daily dry friction and a hip bath, as well as breathing and other exercises, should all form part of the daily health regimen. The bowels should be cleansed daily with a warm-water enema during the period of fasting
Cold pack and Hot Epsom salts bath
A cold pack should be applied to the throat at two-hourly intervals during the day. A hot Epsom salts bath taken everyday or every other day will also be beneficial

Great to see this out of the Courts.
It now appears possible to discuss it without fear of breaching some sub judice rule
I never understood how the waterproof concrete was supposed to be able to keep water out of a house that the plans suggested had a swimming pool in the middle of a living space between a bedroom and a home cinema area - I would have thought that evaporation alone might have caused some serious problems with internal and insterstitial condensation.
No doubt some expert on the case will be able to set me straight if I have erred.

After a one year hiatus, the Kids Triathlon is back.
Held at Chapman Park and Fanny Chapman Pool, the triathalon will return to Doylestown on Sunday, June 2.
It is open to kids ages 7 to 15; registration is open now and continues through May 26.
And don't think your child needs to have a professional-grade bicycle or endorsement-worthy running shoes.
"It really is for everyone," Mark Douple told Patch on Wednesday. "We've had kids come in geared up with all the fancy bikes and fancy clothes, all the way to kids who have a basket on the front of their bike and tassels on the handlebars."
"It's an introductory triathlon just to get kids to see if they're interested in doing something like this. Maybe it will spark their interest in continuing, and in being healthy," said Douple, a Doylestown Borough resident who has been involved with the event since the beginning.
Doylestown's Kids Triathlon began in 2005 and has been an annual event, except for last year.
The triple-sport race consists of a swimming leg, a biking leg and a running leg. Distances vary according to the three age groups: 7 to 9; 10 to 12, 13 to 15.
Each year, more and more children have participated, Douple said, with as many as 300 coming out one year.
Several sponsors and organizers are coming together this year to bring the race back, including Doylestown Borough and Doylestown Township, Fanny Chapman pool, Bike Works Doylestown, T Wiley Sports and Mind Your Design.
In addition to sponsors, Douple said the group is looking for volunteers to help on race day. In past years, they've needed 70 to 100 volunteers, he said.
"It's basically three races back-to-back, so we need people to cover the pool area, the bicycle course and the running course," Douple said. "Volunteers are critical for us to be able to continue to run this event."
To register a child to participate or to volunteer or for more information, visit the event's website.

The Poway landfill, located south of Poway Road, west of Espola Road , and north of Dehia Street was a solid waste landfill operated by the County of San Diego Department of Public Works from 1949 until 1975. The landfill is about 14 acres and contains approximately 165,000 tons of trash with an average thickness of 30 feet. The landfill was allowed to accept residential, commercial and agricultural wastes. No septic, industrial chemical or liquid waste disposal was authorized. The landfill was designed and operated using the best available technology required at the time of operation. The landfill has a gas extraction system consisting of gas collection wells, piping and a flare station to control landfill generated gas (primarily methane, which is created by the decomposition of buried trash).
While investigating the extent of low concentration solvent (tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethane (TCE)) contamination in ground water within the landfill boundary, very low levels of benzene and solvents were found in soil vapor test probes in the neighborhood street adjacent to the southern toe of the landfill. Benzene is the compound that is of most concern at this time. No actual exposure to benzene or other chemicals has been confirmed. Benzene was not detected in the neighborhood outdoor air samples. All municipal water for the neighborhood is imported from the City of Poway. Ground water is not used for drinking or other municipal purposes in the area.
Please click on the frequently asked questions link for more detailed information regarding benzene and the other compounds detected.
In order to make a more definitive conclusion regarding health impacts and to determine the source and extent of the benzene contamination, the County's Department of Public Works (DPW) is conducting additional data collection (drilling bore holes, collection of soil, soil gas, and ground water samples) on landfill property, public right-of-ways, and some residential properties. The sampling will be conducted during the months of March and April with result information being available by June. The LEA and the California Regional Water Control Board (RWQCB) are overseeing and reviewing the investigations conducted by DPW.
Public meetings will be held after additional sampling results are received.
There are no future meetings scheduled at this time.
A meeting notice will be mailed to affected residents and an e-mail will be sent to those on our e-mail list. Please contact the LEA via e-mail if you wish to be notified by e-mail of upcoming meetings.

Jeff Siegel's Santa Anita Analysis (Mon., Feb. 20, 2012)
The early part of today's President's Day program is light in value; the fields are the small and the payoffs potentially short. #7 Baron Von Red is even money on the morning line in the opener and will be hard to beat if he runs back to his very sharp second place performance at this level last month. Rosario stays aboard for Sadler so he's almost guaranteed to leave at odds on. Let's pass.
The second race doesn't look any better. #7 Warren's Patron has the proper style for this extended sprint distance and a good outside post to insure clear sailing. Beaten a neck in a similar restricted $12,500 claimer earlier this month, the Gutierrez-trained colt is listed at 6/5 on the morning line. #4 His Boy Elroy, third in the same race Warren's Patron exits, drops a whopping nine pounds with the switch to bug boy Flores and you would think that kind of weight shift is worth the two lengths he needs to make up. But at 7/5 on the morning line His Boy Elroy doesn't offer any value, either.
The third race is a bottom rung maiden claimer with another pair of short priced morning line contenders. #3 Candys Girl, a closing second vs. similar in her first outing since Del Mar (and her first for Mitchell), probably won't have to improve much at all to graduate today. She gets an extra half furlong to compliment her late running style and Talamo stays aboard. #6 Subtle Greek, in the money in her last pair and a solid fit on figures, should be prominent throughout and have every chance to earn her diploma in her eighth lifetime outing. Nothing else in here inspires.
The fourth race begins the Pick-6 sequence; the card now becomes a little more playable. This is a rare 12 furlong turf event for first level allowance stayers and the logical 9/5 morning line favorite is #5 Imponente Purse, a Brazilian import in Avila's barn who has been facing graded company in all of his recent outings and in fact was beaten in a photo in last year's San Juan Capistrano 'Cap. Entered to be claimed for $40,000, Imponente Purse might be being dangled for sale or perhaps his connection are simply tired of losing; the gelding has won just once since 2010. You probably have to use him in your rolling exotics along with #6 Antidote, second to subsequent stakes winner Slim Shadey at this level last time out (but starting to get a rep as a nibbler more than winner), and #6 Acafella, rounding into top shape with two recent races to get the rust off and likely to make another forward move today.
The fifth race is a $12,500 restricted (nw-2) sprint for fillies and mares that looks shaky and chaotic. #3 To the Top takes a 50% drop in class following a disappointing run earlier this month; she can win if she runs back to her maiden score two races back. But that's not the kind of "if" you'd want to take when backing a favorite. #7 Kids Table, also dropping for $25,000 to $12,500, is a first-off-the-claim for Palma after flopping at 3/5 in early January. She's another with a fancy maiden claiming win to her credit and little else. With nothing in here to trust, this race should be either passed or bought.
Older state bred maidens sprint down the hill in the sixth race. #2 Relentless Heat, in the money in his last three and earning a career top speed figure when a good runner-up in a recent maiden claimer, moves up to straight maiden company today in his second start off a layoff, and any kind of improvement should earn him a diploma. Granted, his two prior runs over the course were only so-so, but there's simply not much in here. #3 Madeoftherightstuf removes blinkers and returns to turf; his second place finish two races back charts well with these and the switch to Rosario must be viewed in a positive light as well.
The seventh race is a state bred first level allowance sprint on the main track and offers some value. #5 Rule by Force, first off the claim for Sherman, is a veteran with a winning punch (13-for-38) and is wheeled back against pretty much the same bunch after finishing a solid third with a bit of rouble last month. He'll do his best running from off the pace. #7 Caffeine High, away since May, is protected by Ellis upon his return and the works – and the presence of Rosario in the saddle - indicate fitness. #8 Obsess chased open company last time out and disappointed but he's back with Calbreds today and is good enough to at least get a piece of it. These are the three we'll be using in our rolling exotics; you may want to spread a little more.
The featured Buena Vista Handicap has a full field of 12 and looks like a bit of scramble with some price possibilities available. #2 Strawberrydaiquiri is a high class veteran mare and Group-2 winner at Royal Ascot who has trained like she's fit and ready for Cecil. Anything close to her "A" game will be good enough to win. #3 Cambrina, beaten less than three lengths in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf, loves this turf course (3-for-5) and will be a solid threat if cranked up. #5 Vano a Galupiar was the beneficiary of a set up against a lesser field recently but she's a winner of four of six career starts and probably has further upside for Drysdale. This is another race you may to want to go deeper in.
The finale is a maiden claiming sprint for 3-year-olds. #4 Good Mojo, freshened since the autumn meeting and with better than par numbers for this level, seems the logical selection. He'll do his best running from off the pace while being paired with hot riding bug boy Flores and should be along in time.

Quincy Regional Airport saw an increase in passengers traveling to St. Louis this April compared with last April.
Airport Director Jeff Steinkamp tells The Quincy Herald-Whig (http://bit.ly/ZNwCOx) that the airport had a 12.2 percent increase. Cape Air has had about 3,200 outbound passengers so far this year. That's compared to about 2,900 through April of last year.
Quincy city officials say the numbers mean the airport should exceed last year's 10,120 passengers. That's important because the airport needs more than 10,000 passengers annually to qualify for $1 million in airport improvement grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Man allegedly slaps, spits driver in road rage incident
Date: July 15, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Sarasota police arrested a man July 15 for allegedly slapping and spitting on a woman he said cut off the car he was in traffic the day before.
Thomas Mizell, 40, was a passenger in an SUV that was traveling along Fruitville Road. Mizell and the driver, David Wilson, thought a woman driving alongside them cut them off.
Sally Born told police that she was in her car on Fruitville Road, when the SUV cut her off and followed her until she stopped at the traffic light at Tuttle Avenue.
She said Mizell got out of the SUV, opened her passenger-side door, grabbed a visor and sunglasses off her head, slapped her in the face and spit on her.
Born got the tag number of the SUV, and officers tracked down Wilson, who said Mizell told him that he hit Born. Police then found Mizell and arrested him for battery and burglary.

Rachel Comey Signs Up St. Vincent For Fashion Week-------
It's a time-honored tradition to complain about the weather, and this sodden summer has seen New Yorkers waving their fists at the sky with particular gusto. Not Rachel Comey, though. The designer has channeled her agita about the rain, rain, and more rain into fashion, emphasizing wet-weather gear in her upcoming Spring collection. "I guess if it rains at the show, I'm ready," says Comey. "I've got long raincoats, short ones, dressy ones, casual…" Comey better have a few extra of those on hand: Her show on the 9th is taking place on a West Chelsea rooftop, and inasmuch as Annie Clark—a.k.a. St. Vincent—is playing, the place is sure to be packed to the gills. "We met through friends, and it turned out she was already wearing my clothes," explains Comey of the St. Vincent collaboration. "We're pretty aligned aesthetically, so it kind of made sense to do something together." Comey confesses that she's still figuring out what, exactly, St. Vincent is going to do. "She'll be playing solo during the show, I know," she says, "but song-wise I'm not sure yet. Maybe some covers, I'm thinking." May we suggest "Purple Rain"?
