PURPOSE: Research has demonstrated the efficacy of isometric handgrip (IHG) training to attenuate resting blood pressure. These studies have relied on the use of programmable digital handgrips for training. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of simple, inexpensive spring-loaded handgrip devices in producing hypotensive effects.
METHODS: The study was a randomized controlled trial of 49 normotensive participants (66.4 +/- 0.9 years; 57% women). Participants in the exercise group (n = 25) trained and had blood pressure measured twice weekly for 8 weeks. Control participants (n = 24) completed weekly blood pressure measurements. Pre- and posttraining measurements were each assessed over 3 visits. Statistical analysis of the pre-post data involved analyses of variance and hierarchical linear modeling was used to examine changes over time.
RESULTS: Following 8 weeks, IHG participants demonstrated significant reductions in resting blood pressure. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were reduced from 122 +/- 3 mm Hg to 112 +/- 3 mm Hg (P < .001) and from 70 +/- 1 mm Hg to 67 +/- 1 mm Hg (P < .05), respectively. Hierarchical linear modeling analysis also revealed a significant cross-level (ie, group / time) interaction, with an estimated reduction in systolic blood pressure of 5.4 mm Hg (P < .001) over the training period in the IHG group.
CONCLUSIONS: In agreement with previous studies, IHG training reduced resting arterial pressure following 8 weeks of training. Hypotensive effects linked to IHG training may be achieved using simple, inexpensive spring handgrip training devices and may provide a convenient and affordable therapeutic alternative or adjunctive therapy for lowering blood pressure.

The Rhetoric and Power of the Gay Gene
Reinventing the Male Homosexual: The Rhetoric and Power of the Gay Gene examines the assumption that embracing the biological research on homosexuality is a viable political strategy for the gay rights movement. The biological argument for gay rights is treated as a "bio-rhetoric," a means of incorporating scientific research into public debates. The book investigates the biological research on which this gay rights argument is based, and explores how male homosexuality is conceptualized in the fields of behavioral genetics, neuroendocrinology, sociobiology, and evolutionary psychology. Robert Alan Brookey demonstrates that most biological research begins with the assumption that male homosexuality is a state of physical effeminate pathology. Although biological research may seem to support a pro-gay rights agenda, the same research can actually be used to support conservative political interests.less

Woman denies drug trafficking chargeApril 16,2014Woman denies
trafficking charges
A Brandon woman who told police she opened her home to a New York drug dealer to support her own addiction denied two felony charges in Rutland criminal court Monday.
Jamie L. Trinci, 28, pleaded innocent to counts of possessing crack cocaine and heroin trafficking. Judge Nancy Corsones set bail at $50,000 for Trinci, who was not listed on the states online inmate locator Tuesday night.
Trinci, who could face up to 35 years in jail if convicted of both offenses, was arrested in February after police executed a search warrant at her home at 43 Carver St.
In the home, Brandon Police say they seized 32 rocks of crack cocaine weighing a total of 12. 5 grams and 380 bags of heroin weighing a total of 12.12 grams.
During her arrest, Trinci allegedly told police that she had been hosting a drug dealer from Brooklyn, N.Y, at her home since she moved into the residence in November.
She said the dealer, who goes by the street name BL would package drugs at her home and give them to her to sell to people she knew.MORE IN This Just InRutland City Police said Friday evening the department's phone lines were down.

Summer to remember- 1.1 - RosannePART 1: SUMMER FEVER CHAPTER 1 "Brandon!" I, Rosanne Secret, yelled downstairs to my "brother", "We have to get there before them!" when I said them, I meant our friends Alice, Alain, Adel, and Moxxie. Brandon was going to get Adel, Moxxie was going to get Alice, and I was going to get Alain. Alice was the surprisingly nice rich girl. Alain had a hard life with his dad, and his adoption parents are never home. He's quiet, yet very musical. Adel loves adventure, food, and is always super hyper. Moxxie is an actress by day, and a writer by night. But, what can I say, she's very calm and quiet. Brandon is my "adoption" brother. He was our school's football quarterback. Yet very popular, he, too, is very quiet. And then there's me... I'm a pessimist. Though, I'm very quiet, kind, creative, and musical. When I was 7, I ran away from home and sat outside a resturant one day. The owner took me in and made me one of his own

I think Obama together with al-Sharp Ton should organize a Unions Million March against volcano eruptions.
And al-Gore, hysterically shaking and tossing his arms, should start a fundraising campaign for money to gag/plug all volcanoes. It will be the best way to 'saw up' the taxpayers' $billions among campaign leaders.

Regarding that abominable creature called Sandra Fluke, I always thought that being a woman means – and should mean – more than just having female genitals.
Her impudent demand that taxpayers should cover her unbridled sexual life and buy her anti-baby pills made her even less womanlike in my eyes.

That disastrous lack of knowledge among students says a lot of our severely damaged education system.
I told already that DHS should never be run by Democrats.
Now I add that our education system also should never be run by Democrats.
The more Democrats are involved in ruling the key areas of our society life, the more problems we get.
At least, this is what I see and experience daily in my life.

Hi guys and girls,
I'll try to explain this the best i can, but i've also drawn a little pic for you all (yay Art).
I have a core stack that consists of four HP A5500 EI switches that have dedicated stack ports/cables on the rear of the unit.
Each of these four switches has a aggregated port which connects to an edge switch.
My edge switches are HP1910-48g and do not have dedicated stack ports.
They have a feature called IRF that allows me to define which ports i want to use in a stack.
I'm having problems finding info of what data though-put a IRF port is capable of between the stack.
Looking at my pic below (dont laugh took me ages!). the switches on the left are my edge switches.... the switch on the right is my core stack.
If the edges switch are connect via a single irf cable (this is just a standard cat6 cable where the port has been configguired as a irf port) Am i right in thinking that the "Master" switch has a data through-put to the core of approx 4GBits, but the slave only 1Gbits because of the cable bottle neck?
i can add another 3 IRF ports to make a 4gbit link, but just wanted to know if a port is set as a IRF port its through-put is equl to the switches internal swich speed or capped @ 1Gbit.
I'm alittle confused.

Hey gang. I finished a big chunk of my manuscript but I felt things weren't quite holding together. I turned it over to my editor, Ginger, and asked that we do a review to see what areas should be built up and what should be discarded or deemphasized. I knew certain concepts needed more details but being so close to my subject I couldn't judge for myself.
I received a pleasant email from the editor saying she was really happy with my first draft (good job!) and that there was just some reorganizing needed. Cool! I was in a similar frame of mind and this really was better news than I expected.
Until I opened her edited copy.
I scrolled through to the final feedback and had to read it twice. While what was being suggested was indeed a reorganization of the book, in order to do the reorg I would have to mostly rewrite the prose.
I started to feel nauseous. I KNEW I would need to do some rewriting and reorganizing but this wedged my brain. I literally couldn't see past the monolith in my mind. I had been so focused on getting my first draft written, getting my ideas down and building the manuscript that it never crossed my mind I would have to do it twice.
In "Bird by Bird" by Annie Lamott, Annie wrote about having to rewrite a book treatment for her publisher three times (she holed up in a hotel room and was doing lines of crank if I remember correctly). She busted her way through it too using will (and crank) to get her manuscript where it needs to be.
Cool. I know what to do--be like Annie (but no crank--not even on special occasions).
I've read "Bird by Bird" book many times and know this temporary state is just part of being in the middle of the process--the swamp where I'm elbows deep in my own mire of thoughts and doubt (no biggie).
I met with Ginger on the phone to discuss the new approach. She was still pretty optimistic about the concept so I steeled myself to go in again with a short writing assignment and move forward. I set a time to work on it and let myself have a couple days to kick chairs and complain.
I put my house in order, took a trip to Carmel with Keri and another friend, and visited with my Mom. I allowed myself the luxury of griping. But when my date to write came up, I put that all aside and got to work.
Even faced with the rewrite I knew had made enormous progress. Books usually need lots of rework--sometimes several goes at it. I'm in good company in this regard.
Truly, almost any project that can't be tossed off in an afternoon probably will need some rework. Building in a place for that in both emotional and physical space is important. Its a good argument also for not doing your homework on the bus.
I'm still moving toward my deadline. I have a clear picture of how to proceed which I'm far happier with than what I originally drafted. I have several writing assignments scoped out that will take me forward until draft number two is completed.
Are you in the thick of things? How are you doing? Drop a line in the comments below and let me hear from you.

About a month or so ago I replaced the trip lever cover on my tub because it was pitted and ugly to look at (due to a tub spout leak always dripping on it). Genius that I am, when I removed the cover and detached the drain stopper linkage, I allowed the linkage and plunger/stopper assembly fall back into the hole and down the overflow pipe. I made an attempt with a hanger to fish our the linkage and stopper but was not able to do so. So I installed the new cover without connecting the linkage and hoped for the best! No big deal... the drain was still draining and the old stopper mechanism never really stopped the water anyway... we used a rubber drain cover in the tub to fill it and take baths.
So a few weeks go by and the drain is draining slower and slower each day. After a while it becomes intolerable and I have to fix it or pay a plumber lots of cash to do so.
So I remove the trip lever cover and try to snake it but it doesn't work and I give up quickly. A day or so later I try again, but this time with a carefully bent wire hanger to try to fish out the disconnect linkage and stopper that I believe is clogging my drain. Good news... success on the first try! I manage to hook the lost linkage and pull it out. But instead of the stopper on the other end, I have about a 1/2 pound of the grossest hair/soap scum/??? mess - about the size of a hamster - that was attached to the linkage in place of the stopper.
Now that the overflow tube is cleaned out(hopefully), the drain is clear and the tub no longer fills during showers. So far so good. Maybe I'll even buy a replacement linkage/stopper and get it working again.
BUT.... where is the old stopper that never came out of the overflow tube? Can it fall past the "T" with the tube drain pipe? What's below there... a J or U trap? Should I bother trying to get it out? How??? What's the worse that can happen if I just leave it as is?
It's probably stuck down in the trap,I heard of that happening before. Try the coathanger again. If the pipes are big enough and it has one of those old drum traps,it could have passed through and lodged and settled in there.If you can't get ir right away wait and see what happens.If it ain't broke.....
I may have a similar problem. My tub has always run a bit slow and periodically gets extremely slow. Heavy duty drain cleaner usually gets it back to an acceptable level. However, I noticed that the stopper lever didn't seem to have an effect on the rate at which it drained. When I removed the cover plate I saw that there was nothing attached. I was told that the stopper cannot fall into the trap because there is a lip in the drain to prevent this.
So there are two possibilities. The first one is that the linkage fell off and is somewhere in the drain. The second is that the stopper was removed by the previous owner or never installed for some reason. I spent some time fishing with a wire hanger but didn't feel anything that felt like the linkage. I am inclined to just but another stopper and linkage and see if it functions properly. Thoughts?

Every year, groups of Shia men parade through the centre of Nabatiyeh, where Lebanon's major Ashura rituals take place. These rituals include the controversial bloodletting rite known as "tatbir". Although frowned upon by religious and political authorities, Shia communities still practice tatbir as a vital part of their communal act of mourning Imam Hussein, who was martyred at the pivotal Battle of Karbala in 680 AD.
