Chicago Gourmet 2014 Kicks Off with Hamburger Hop
Chicago Gourmet is an event that highlights the talent of top Chicago chefs from the best local restaurants in town.

The Hop takes place on Friday, September 26th at 6 p.m. at the Harris Theater Rooftop (205 E Randolph St).

Tickets for the Hamburger Hop are $115, while Late Night Gourmet tickets cost $50 each. Buy both together for $150. Tickets are available here.

Chris Smalling put in another impressive display whilst filling in for Rio Ferdinand in Marseille last night, but acknowledges he won't be displacing the England captain from the first XI just yet.
"When you get the shirt and a position in the team you don't want to give it up," said Smalling. "I understand that Rio is the main man. But when he got injured it was time for me to step up. They are big shoes to fill. Hopefully through my performances and the sort of games and massive occasions I have been playing in, I repay the manager's faith and justify him playing me. I know I will have to bide my time but I am always going to be ready because no player wants to be sitting on the bench."

National Museum of Civil War Medicine
Based on 118 traveler reviews
Inspiring and Awestruck
Nov 03, 2014 by: Jaime S from Frederick, Maryland
I learned quite a bit about the Medicine that they were able to give during this time. There are some things that could have been a little better, but I am sure that they will work on this in the future.
Great Place
Nov 03, 2014 by: lynelltravels2014 from Frederick, Maryland
I love history and all types of museum. This museum puts the Medical History into perspective for that time period and also compares medical milestones, on a smaller scale to this time period. WORTH it!
What a disappointment
Oct 29, 2014 by: PhoenixRobin from Phoenix
I thought this museum was going to be fascinating because of the subject matter and we really kind of went out of our way to visit. What a disappointment. I didn't learn anything that I had not seen or read about before. The displays are setup so that you have to read your way through the museum and frankly it got tiresome. It covers two floors, but they are partial floors. If I was bored, I can imagine children being bored silly. Maybe I wouldn't have been as disappointed if it had cost $3 to get in, but at almost $10, it really wasn't worth it. I wish I would have spent my precious time seeing another attraction.
Worth stopping for in Frederick
Sep 20, 2014 by: lablovr00 from Sugar Grove, IL
Our only in Frederick, this museum did an excellent job portraying what it was like to have been a patient during the Civil War. A real eye opener as to how medicine was revolutionized during the years of war.
Not gory at all
Aug 29, 2014 by: millc54 from Indian Shores, Florida
We decided on this museum as it is something different and we could both enjoy. The exhibit starts with myths about old-time medicine and is a good read. The top floor is full of information about how medicine and medical practices were performed under field conditions. It showed how advances were made and how the ambulance service evolved. On the lower floor there was a dentistry area with some instruments and depictions. There were doctor's notes and diaries from nurses. Throughout the museum there were letters, medical histories and some medical cases in words and pictures. There were also many examples of the doctor's tools and medicines and the drugs they used at the time and what they were used for. The last part of the exhibit in total contrast was models of what is being used in present day warfare. The goriest item was a gangrenous arm and hand preserved in a jar. There is an elevator to the top floor. If you go to the Visitors Center they will give you a BOBO for the entrance fee.

November 27, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama plans to take the oath of office this month with his hand on not a single Bible, but on two - one used by Abraham Lincoln and another by Martin Luther King Jr.
King's Bible is particularly significant since the ceremony comes on Jan. 21, the federal holiday honoring the civil rights leader. King's Bible has never been used for a presidential inauguration.
Obama used the Lincoln Bible while taking the oath four years ago - the first time it had been used since the 16th president's 1861 inauguration. The president plans to use his wife's family's Bible for a private swearing-in at the White House Sunday, Jan. 20, when the constitution requires his second term to begin.
Public presidential inaugurations traditionally aren't held on Sundays.

Close to wedding we attended, price greatPosted Sep 8, 2014
Pros: The price, nice rooms, location to wedding.
Location: There many things to do nearby, but our stay was too short and occupied with the wedding events. Want to return to go to Red Rocks, downtown Denver.
We attended a cousins wedding in Littleton. Spent time with family who lived in the area.

Nothing spectacular, but worth the money on a dealPosted Aug 18, 2014 on Hotels.com
I just stayed for one night. But here are my thoughts on the place. THE GOOD - Location is close to Park Meadows Mall, IKEA, lots of restaurants and Interstate 25. Also, the room was clean and did have a fridge, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee pot. Check-in and check-out was quick. Free internet and parking. The bed was average. THE BAD - Although you get a good size room with the above appliances, there is no table to sit at and eat. You have to use the computer desk (Ok for one I guess) or sit on the couch and bend over a coffee table. Room is rather tight with the TV sort of in the way of the bed on one side. Basically a lot of furniture and appliances for the room size. Other folks mentioned that the room is noisy. It is! I could hear the people next to me conversation very easily. Luckily they went to bed at a reasonable hour or I would have not been happy with the room at all. That is luck of the draw I guess. Didn't even try the breakfast. It was a zoo! Just ate my own food in my room before heading out. I don't think I would stay there again just because of the noise from the room next door. It would not be good to have a noisy neighbor and have to listen to it all night. Especially, if one was staying multiple nights..

I stayed to get caught up on business that had piled up. Went there to relax and unwind as well. The pool is small but it was not busy in the morning so very nice to relax by the outdoor pool, and work in the afternoon. The breakfast was acceptable - lots of choices for cereal, oatmeal, breads for toast, waffles, yogurts, fresh fruit and some things that were supposed to be sausage, hash browns and scrambled eggs. It didn't look appealing to me but everyone else seemed to enjoy it. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this hotel for business, personal -individuals or families.

Greek and Roman Consolations: Eight Studies of a Tradition and Its AfterlifeHardback

Product description
Ancient consolatory writings offer us a window onto alien forms of loss and grief, as experienced in a world where death happened, in most cases, much earlier and with less reliable warning than in developed countries today. Here, eight original studies explore the topic of bereavement in consolatory writings from ancient Greece, Rome, early medieval and Arabic society. David Scourfield examines consolation as a genre; James Chong-Gossard treats consolation in Greek tragedy, and the rejection of comfort; Han Baltussen studies the purpose and impact of Cicero's curious 'Consolation to Himself ' on the loss of his daughter. Marcus Wilson proposes a new interpretation of Seneca's consolatory writings; George Boys-Stones studies the Consolatio ad Apollonium as 'therapy for the dead'; David Konstan reflects on Lucian's Of Mourning and the consolation tradition. For later Antiquity and reception, Josef Lossl treats continuity and transformation of ancient Consolatio in Augustine of Hippo, while Peter Adamson addresses Arabic ethics and the limits of philosophical consolation. The collection offers unexpected results: consolation itself is on occasion rejected, philosophy deliberately marginalised, while much emerges which is unique and personal to the ancient individuals involved.

Stars Join "Stand Up To Cancer" Telethon
CBS DFW (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSDFW.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSDFW.com/Health
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Jennifer Aniston, Jon Hamm, Halle Berry, Reese Witherspoon and Kiefer Sutherland want to connect with you about cancer.
They are among the stars slated to appear on "Stand Up to Cancer," the hour-long telethon set to air Sept. 5 on 31 broadcast and cable networks simultaneously.
Other celebrity participants announced Wednesday include Pierce Brosnan, Rob Lowe, Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller, Eric Stonestreet and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Rather than the stars staffing phone banks as they have on past "Stand Up to Cancer" telethons, they'll be contacting with viewers by phone and online through Facebook and other platforms from a "digital lounge" hosted by Katie Couric. Fans can sign up for the "We're Calling You" initiative beginning Wednesday at werecallingyou.org.
"We'll have plenty of stars reaching out to donors via social media, thanking them through Facebook messages, digital shout outs, Instagrams and tweets," Couric said. "In other words, this year, we are so 2014!"
"Instead of people calling in with the hope of talking to a celebrity, stars will be calling and sending social shout-outs to viewers at home," Couric said.
The "Stand Up to Cancer" special will also feature performances by Jennifer Hudson, Ariana Grande, The Who, Common & Lupe Fiasco and Dave Matthews.
For the first time, the telethon will include a Canadian co-broadcast, with funds raised benefiting research and awareness programs in Canada.
Funds raised by the telethon support international, inter-disciplinary scientific research aimed at discovering new treatments for various types of cancer. Since its first broadcast in 2008, Stand Up to Cancer has pledged more than $260 million.

Im sorry but how does this help build investor confidence and shareholder value when you are either unable or unwilling to provide full year guidance. Everybody knows that is the kiss of death .... people assume you are either
a) hiding something
b) really don't know - which is scary
c) lack confidence in your business to be held accountable.
so you throw out soft tosses like... 17% GM, +or - 1%.. growth 2x the Industry.... +- 2%... etc...
Fortinet guided for Q1 revenue of 155m to 159m (+16 Y/Y) - Above 155.2m consensus
like i said... " meaningful " guidance...... last time i checked all of its peers provided full year guidance...
Did you short @ $18 too?
nope.. if you read my posts i sold out last night AH at $23.41 when they didn't provide guidance and encouraged others to follow... i gather you sat on your hands and watched your paper profit slip away.. if the market slips back today FTNT has a chance to finish red ...strong guidance coupled with a solid qtr beat and we would have been flying... shame...

The New Possibility: John Fahey's Guitar Soli Christmas Album/Christmas with John Fahey, Vo (2000)
by John Fahey

Show synopsis It probably surprised a few people that guitar eccentric John Fahey chose to record Christmas music. This release comprises the majority of not one but two Christmas releases from 1968 and 1975. Most of the instrumentals on both albums will be familiar, such as "White Christmas," "The First Noel," and "What Child Is This?" On The New Possibility: John Fahey's Guitar Soli Christmas Album, Fahey plays alone, using unusual harmonics and open tunings to turn in pleasant versions of classic Christmas songs. This is a relaxed album, with a pleasing version of "We Three Kings of Orient Are" and a nice fingerpicking adaptation of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Fantasy." The music from the second album, Christmas with John Fahey, Vol. 2 includes several duets with guitarist Richard Ruskin, giving this music a fuller sound and offering a nice contrast to the first album. "Oh Holy Night" presents an abundance of textures, as light and airy as the season, but more resonant due to the continuous melody line. While the material from both albums is satisfying, the later album gathers more depth and presence by the addition of Ruskin's unique but complementary guitar work. The instrumentals on the second album are also more eclectic, as with the "Russian Christmas Overture" and the 12-minute "Christmas Fantasy, Pt. 2." On this tune, Fahey uses a more eccentric approach, creating the type of Christmas music a fan would expect from him. This instrumental contains more dissonance and improvising than the other material, but nonetheless retains a seasonal air. This is a fine collection of holiday guitar music. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr., Rovi

- The player name requires you to draw the characters, but it only accepts Japanese so I don't know what to do there. That would probably require skills far beyond what I possess, sadly that'll have to be left alone but I hope people won't be bothered by it.

Radium is a chemical element with symbol Ra and atomic number 88. It is the sixth element in group 2 of the periodic table, also known as the alkaline earth metals. The color of pure radium is almost pure white, but it readily oxidizes on exposure to air, becoming black in color. All isotopes of radium are highly radioactive, with the most stable isotope being radium-226, which has a half-life of 1600 years and decays into radon gas. When radium decays, ionizing radiation is a product, which can excite fluorescent chemicals and cause radioluminescence.
Radium, in the form of radium chloride, was discovered by Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898. They extracted the radium compound from uraninite and published the discovery at the French Academy of Sciences five days later. Radium was isolated in its metallic state by Marie Curie and André-Louis Debierne through the electrolysis of radium chloride in 1910.
In nature, radium is found in uranium and thorium ores in trace amounts as small as a seventh of a gram per ton of uraninite. Radium is not necessary for living organisms, and adverse health effects are likely when it is incorporated into biochemical processes because of its radioactivity and chemical reactivity. Currently, other than its use in nuclear medicine, radium has no commercial applications; formerly, it was used as a radioactive source for radioluminescent devices and also in radioactive quackery for its supposed curative powers. Today, these former applications are no longer in vogue because radium's toxicity has since become known, and less dangerous isotopes are used instead in radioluminescent devices.

Radium is the heaviest known alkaline earth metal and is the only radioactive member of its group. Its properties most closely resemble its lighter congener barium, but it is not as well-studied due to its dangerous radioactivity.
Pure radium is a volatile silvery-white metal. Its color rapidly vanishes upon oxidation in air, yielding a black layer of radium nitride (Ra3N2).[1] Its melting point is either 700 °C (1,292 °F) or 960 °C (1,760 °F),[a] and its boiling point is 1,737 °C (3,159 °F). Both of these values are slightly lower than those of barium, confirming periodic trends down the group 2 elements.[2] Like barium, radium crystallizes in the body-centered cubic structure at standard temperature and pressure: the radium–radium bond distance is 514.8 picometers.[3] Radium has a density of 5.5 g/cm3, higher than that of barium, again confirming periodic trends; the radium-barium density ratio is comparable to the radium-barium atomic mass ratio,[4] due to the two elements' similar crystal structures.[4][5]
Radium, like barium, is a highly reactive metal and always exhibits its group oxidation state of +2.[1] It forms the colorless Ra2+ cation in aqueous solution, which is highly basic and does not form complexes readily.[1] Most radium compounds are therefore simple ionic compounds,[1] though participation from the 6s and 6p electrons (in addition to the valence 7s electrons) is expected due to relativistic effects and would enhance the covalent character of radium compounds such as RaF2 and RaAt2.[6] Solid radium compounds are white as radium ions provide no specific coloring, but they gradually turn yellow and then dark over time due to self-radiolysis from radium's alpha decay.[1] Insoluble radium compounds coprecipitate with all barium, most strontium, and most lead compounds.[7]
Radium has 33 known isotopes, with mass numbers from 202 to 234: all of them are radioactive.[8] Four of these – 223Ra (half-life 11.4 days), 224Ra (3.64 days), 226Ra (1600 years), and 228Ra (5.75 years) – occur naturally in the decay chains of primordial thorium-232, uranium-235, and uranium-238 (223Ra from uranium-235, 226Ra from uranium-238, and the other two from thorium-232). These isotopes nevertheless still have half-lives too short to be primordial radionuclides and only exist in nature from these decay chains.[9] Together with the artificial 225Ra (15 d), these are the five most stable isotopes of radium.[9] All other known radium isotopes have half-lives under two hours, and the majority have half-lives under a minute.[8] At least 12 nuclear isomers have been reported; the most stable of them is radium-205m, with a half-life of between 130 and 230 milliseconds. All ground states of isotopes from radium-205 to radium-214, and from radium-221 to radium-234, have longer half-lives.[8]
In the early history of the study of radioactivity, the different natural isotopes of radium were given different names. In this scheme, 223Ra was named actinium X (AcX), 224Ra thorium X (ThX), 226Ra radium (Ra), and 228Ra mesothorium 1 (MsTh1).[9] When it was realized that all of these are isotopes of thorium, many of these names fell out of use, and "radium" came to refer to all isotopes, not just 226Ra.[9] Some of radium-226's decay products received historical names including "radium", ranging from radium A to radium G.[9]
226Ra is the most stable isotope of radium and is the last isotope in the (4n + 2) decay chain of uranium-238 with a half-life of over a century. Its immediate decay product is the dense radioactive noble gas radon, which is responsible for much of the danger of environmental radium.[10] It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.[11][12]
A sample of radium metal maintains itself at a higher temperature than its surroundings because of the radiation it emits – alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays. More specifically, radium itself emits only alpha particles, but other steps in its decay chain emit alpha or beta particles, and almost all particle emissions are accompanied by gamma rays.[13]
Radium was discovered by Marie Skłodowska-Curie and her husband Pierre on 21 December 1898, in a uraninite sample.[14] While studying the mineral earlier, the Curies removed uranium from it and found that the remaining material was still radioactive. They separated out an element similar to bismuth from pitchblende in July 1898, that turned out to be polonium. They then separated out a radioactive mixture consisting mostly of two components: compounds of barium, which gave a brilliant green flame color, and unknown radioactive compounds which gave carmine spectral lines that had never been documented before. The Curies found the radioactive compounds to be very similar to the barium compounds, except that they were more insoluble. This made it possible for the Curies to separate out the radioactive compounds and discover a new element in them, radium. The Curies announced their discovery to the French Academy of Sciences on 26 December 1898.[15][16] The naming of radium dates to about 1899, from the French word radium, formed in Modern Latin from radius (ray): this was in recognition of radium's power of emitting energy in the form of rays.[17][18][19]
Subsequent developments[edit]
In 1910, radium was isolated as a pure metal by Curie and André-Louis Debierne through the electrolysis of a pure radium chloride (RaCl2) solution using a mercury cathode, producing a radium–mercury amalgam. This amalgam was then heated in an atmosphere of hydrogen gas to remove the mercury, leaving pure radium metal.[20] The same year, E. Eoler isolated radium by thermal decomposition of its azide, Ra(N3)2.[9] Radium metal was first industrially produced in the beginning of the 20th century by Biraco, a subsidiary company of Union Minière du Haut Katanga (UMHK) in its Olen plant in Belgium.[21]
The common historical unit for radioactivity, the curie, is based on the radioactivity of 226Ra.[22]
All isotopes of radium have half-lives much shorter than the age of the Earth, so that any primordial radium would have decayed long ago. Radium nevertheless still occurs in the environment, as the isotopes 223Ra, 224Ra, 226Ra, and 228Ra are part of the decay chains of natural thorium and uranium isotopes.[9] Of these four isotopes, the most long-lived is 226Ra (half-life 1600 years), a decay product of natural uranium. Because of its relative longevity, 226Ra is the most common isotope of the element. Thus, radium is found in tiny quantities in the uranium ore uraninite and various other uranium minerals, and in even tinier quantities in thorium minerals. One ton of pitchblende typically yields about one seventh of a gram of radium.[23] One kilogram of the Earth's crust contains about 900 picograms of radium, and one liter of sea water contains about 89 femtograms of radium.[24]
Uranium had no large scale application in the late 18th century and therefore no large uranium mines existed. In the beginning the only larger source for uranium ore was the silver mines at Joachimsthal (now Jáchymov) in the Austrian Empire.[14] The uranium ore was only a by-product of the mining activities. After the isolation of radium by Marie and Pierre Curie from uranium ore from Joachimsthal several scientists started to isolate radium in small quantities. Later small companies purchased mine tailings from Joachimsthal mines and started isolating radium. In 1904 the Austrian government took over the ownership of the mines and stopped exporting raw ore. For some time the radium availability was low.[25]
The formation of an Austrian monopoly and the strong urge of other countries to have access to radium led to a world wide search for uranium ores. The United States took over as leading producer in the early 1910s. The Carnotite sands in Colorado provide some of the element, but richer ores are found in the Congo and the area of the Great Bear Lake and the Great Slave Lake of northwestern Canada.[14][26] Neither of the deposits is mined for radium but the uranium content makes mining profitable.
The amounts of radium produced were and are always relatively small; for example, in 1918, 13.6 g of radium were produced in the United States.[27] In 1954, the total worldwide supply of purified radium amounted to about 5 pounds (2.3 kg),[28] and it is still in this range today, while the annual production of pure radium compounds is only about 100 g in total today.[29] The chief radium-producing countries are Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, the United Kingdom, and the post-Soviet states.[29]
Radium oxide (RaO) has not been characterized, despite oxides being common compounds for the other alkaline earth metals. Radium hydroxide (Ra(OH)2) is the most readily soluble among the alkaline earth hydroxides and is a stronger base than its barium congener, barium hydroxide.[30] It is also more soluble than actinium hydroxide and thorium hydroxide: these three adjacent hydroxides may be separated by precipitating them with ammonia.[30]
Radium chloride (RaCl2) is a colorless, luminous compound. It becomes yellow after some time due to self-damage by the alpha radiation given off by radium when it decays. Small amounts of barium impurities give the compound a rose color.[30] It is soluble in water, though less so than barium chloride, and its solubility decreases with increasing concentration of hydrochloric acid. Crystallization from aqueous solution gives the dihydrate RaCl2·2H2O, isomorphous with its barium analog.[30]
Radium bromide (RaBr2) is also a colorless, luminous compound.[30] In water, it is more soluble than radium chloride. Like radium chloride, crystallization from aqueous solution gives the dihydrate RaBr2·2H2O, isomorphous with its barium analog. The ionizing radiation emitted by radium bromide excites nitrogen molecules in the air, making it glow. The alpha particles of radium quickly gain two electrons to become neutral helium, with builds up inside and weakens radium bromide crystals. This effect sometimes causes the crystals to break or even explode.[30]
Radium nitrate (Ra(NO3)2) is a white compound that can be made by dissolving radium carbonate in nitric acid. As the concentration of nitric acid increases, the solubility of radium nitrate decreases, an important property for the chemical purification of radium.[30]
Radium forms much the same insoluble salts as its lighter congener barium: it forms the insoluble sulfate (RaSO4, the most insoluble known sulfate), chromate (RaCrO4), carbonate (RaCO3), iodate (Ra(IO3)2), tetrafluoroberyllate (RaBeF4), and nitrate (Ra(NO3)2). With the exception of the carbonate, all of these are less soluble in water than the corresponding barium salts. Additionally, radium phosphate, oxalate, and sulfite are probably also insoluble, as they coprecipitate with the corresponding insoluble barium salts.[31] The great insolubility of radium sulfate (at 20 °C, only 2.1 mg will dissolve in 1 kg of water) means that it is one of the less biologically dangerous radium compounds.[32]
Some of the few practical uses of radium are derived from its radioactive properties. More recently discovered radioisotopes, such as cobalt-60 and caesium-137, are replacing radium in even these limited uses because several of these isotopes are more powerful emitters, safer to handle, and available in more concentrated form.[33][34]
Luminescent paint[edit]
Radium was formerly used in self-luminous paints for watches, nuclear panels, aircraft switches, clocks, and instrument dials. A typical self-luminous watch that uses radium paint contains around 1 microgram of radium.[28] In the mid-1920s, a lawsuit was filed against the United States Radium Corporation by five dying "Radium Girl" dial painters who had painted radium-based luminous paint on the dials of watches and clocks. The dial painters routinely licked their brushes to give them a fine point, thereby ingesting radium.[35] Their exposure to radium caused serious health effects which included sores, anemia, and bone cancer. This is because radium is treated as calcium by the body, and deposited in the bones, where radioactivity degrades marrow and can mutate bone cells.[36]
During the litigation, it was determined that the company's scientists and management had taken considerable precautions to protect themselves from the effects of radiation, yet had not seen fit to protect their employees. Worse, for several years the companies had attempted to cover up the effects and avoid liability by insisting that the Radium Girls were instead suffering from syphilis. This complete disregard for employee welfare had a significant impact on the formulation of occupational disease labor law.[37]
As a result of the lawsuit, the adverse effects of radioactivity became widely known, and radium-dial painters were instructed in proper safety precautions and provided with protective gear. In particular, dial painters no longer licked paint brushes to shape them (which caused some ingestion of radium salts). Radium was still used in dials as late as the 1960s, but there were no further injuries to dial painters. This highlighted that the harm to the Radium Girls could easily have been avoided.
From the 1960s the use of radium paint was discontinued. In many cases luminous dials were implemented with non-radioactive fluorescent materials excited by light; such devices glow in the dark after exposure to light, but the glow fades.[36] Where indefinite self-luminosity in darkness was required, safer radioactive promethium or tritium paint was used; both continue to be used today.[38] These had the added advantage of not degrading the phosphor over time, unlike radium.[39] Tritium emits very low-energy beta radiation which cannot penetrate the skin,[40] rather than the penetrating gamma radiation of radium and is regarded as safer. It has a half-life of 12 years.[41]
Clocks, watches, and instruments dating from the first half of the 20th century, often in military applications, may have been painted with radioactive luminous paint. They are usually no longer luminous; however, this is not due to radioactive decay of the radium (which has a half-life of 1600 years) but to the fluorescence of the zinc sulfide fluorescent medium being worn out by the radiation from the radium.[42] The appearance of an often thick layer of green or yellowish brown paint in devices from this period suggests a radioactive hazard. The radiation dose from an intact device is relatively low and usually not an acute risk; but the paint is dangerous if released and inhaled or ingested.[43][44]
Commercial use[edit]
Radium was once an additive in products such as toothpaste, hair creams, and even food items due to its supposed curative powers.[45] Such products soon fell out of vogue and were prohibited by authorities in many countries after it was discovered they could have serious adverse health effects. (See, for instance, Radithor or Revigator types of "Radium water" or "Standard Radium Solution for Drinking".)[42] Spas featuring radium-rich water are still occasionally touted as beneficial, such as those in Misasa, Tottori, Japan. In the U.S., nasal radium irradiation was also administered to children to prevent middle-ear problems or enlarged tonsils from the late 1940s through the early 1970s.[46]
Medical use[edit]
Radium (usually in the form of radium chloride or radium bromide) was used in medicine to produce radon gas which in turn was used as a cancer treatment; for example, several of these radon sources were used in Canada in the 1920s and 1930s.[43][47] However, many treatments that were used in the early 1900s are not used anymore because of the harmful effects radium bromide exposure caused. Some examples are anaemia, cancer, and genetic mutations.[48]
Howard Atwood Kelly, one of the founding physicians of Johns Hopkins Hospital, was a major pioneer in the medical use of radium to treat cancer.[49] His first patient was his own aunt in 1904, who died shortly after surgery.[50] Kelly was known to use excessive amounts of radium to treat various cancers and tumors. As a result, some of his patients died from high amounts of radium exposure.[51] His method of radium application was inserting a radium capsule near the affected area then sewing the radium "points" directly to the tumor.[51] This was the same method used to treat Henrietta Lacks, the host of the original HeLa cells, for cervical cancer.[52] Currently, safer radioisotopes are usually used instead.[36]
The isotope 223Ra (under the trade name Xofigo) was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2013 for use in medicine as a cancer treatment of bone metastasis.[53][54]
Radium is still used today as a radiation source in some industrial radiography devices to check for flawed metallic parts, similarly to X-ray imaging.[36] When mixed with beryllium, radium acts as a neutron source.[42][55] Radium-beryllium neutron sources are still sometimes used even today,[36][56] but other materials such as polonium are now more common: about 1500 polonium-beryllium neutron sources, with an individual activity of 1,850 Ci (68 TBq), have been used annually in the Soviet Union.[57]
Radium is highly radioactive and its immediate daughter, radon gas, is also radioactive. When ingested, 80% of the ingested radium leaves the body through the feces, while the other 20% goes into the bloodstream, mostly accumulating in the bones.[36] Exposure to radium, internal or external, can cause cancer and other disorders, because radium and radon emit alpha and gamma rays upon their decay, which kill and mutate cells.[36] At the time of the Manhattan Project in 1944, the "tolerance dose" for workers was set at 0.1 microgram of ingested radium.[58][59]
Some of the biological effects of radium were apparent from the start. The first case of so-called "radium-dermatitis" was reported in 1900, only 2 years after the element's discovery. The French physicist Antoine Becquerel carried a small ampoule of radium in his waistcoat pocket for 6 hours and reported that his skin became ulcerated. Marie Curie experimented with a tiny sample that she kept in contact with her skin for 10 hours, and noted that an ulcer appeared several days later.[42] Handling of radium has been blamed for Curie's death due to aplastic anemia. However, most of radium's danger comes from its daughter radon: being a gas, it can enter the body far more readily than can its parent radium.[36]

This wasn't the outstanding episode I was hoping for, but Elijah finally gracing the screen is always mega points on an average at best episode.I must say, that I miss Elijah's old epic hairstyle. also this episode was way too centered around love for me. call me crazy, but that is my word and I'm sticking to it :) . . . another thing I would like to point out, is that the ending of this episode left me with the sense that they are slightly pussifying Elijah !!. I swear I will burn down all of Los Angeles if that occurs lol.
Wow, I hate when the prior episode is so strong and then It gets followed up by such a lackluster episode. it should be main storyline Arc throughout the rest of the season and that's it. I think I am fed to the teeth with these filler episodes.
I don't buy for 1 second that everybody in that restaurant had such awesome cell phones that neither 1 of them buffered well that video was being played. I know I am supposed to suspend disbelief, but come on.......
What the.fuck ?? Silas possessing Caroline ??.... you dish spammers need to keep your silly thoughts to yourself. by the way Dish still sucks
Man, I also wanted Merle to survive.... he was 1 of my favorite characters. by the way when did Daryl let his hair get so out of control ? he looked like an anime version of himself lol
I've read that ...... *SPOILER* Klaus gets poisoned and is scared by it ??
Holy crap !! funniest thing I've read all day via @Really bored now " but this
show has not only jumped the shark, they've
jumped the dolphin, and a good sized whale to
on the other hand it was quite refreshing to see Vampires actually do vampire things. the scene inside the club with Damon,Becca and Elena feeding off that girl was pretty damm cool, and it was a nice reminder that they are vampires after all.
Wow !! the pussy power tonight between elena and Rebecca was super annoying. I really cannot stand how Rebecca just pops up out of nowhere all of the time it seems... hey reviewer, why didn't you mention anything about Klaus getting stabbed in the back while Silas owned his ass ?..... by the way I wonder what the trolls at dish are all thinking around the water cooler right now ? Hahahahaha
how the hell was this episode uncommon ? you silly dish trolls need to shut up just like Meg !!

Illinois Grain Tour May Boost State AgribusinessSPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) - The relationships developed with foreign buyers during the Illinois Grain Tour are expected to pay dividends for the state's agribusiness.
Illinois Department of Agriculture officials say foreign buyers who took part in the trade mission are projecting $173 million in purchases in the coming year. They say that is more than triple what last year's tour produced. Agriculture director Bob Flider says the challenge is to build upon the relationships started and turn initial purchases into repeat business.
The tour brought 42 grain buyers to Illinois from China, El Salvador, Mexico, Peru, Thailand and Vietnam. Stops included farms, transportation facilities and equipment manufacturers as well as the Chicago Board of Trade and the Mercantile Exchange
The Grain Tour is one of the department's strategies to find markets for Illinois products.

Great Victorian, Edwardian Gorham Sterling Silver "Dance Card"
At Victorian dances & parties it was custom to ask well in advance for dances with the proper ladies and dance cards like these were used to record these requests
· All items I sell have multiple pictures and are described as accurately as I can, however, if you have any questions, or require any additional information, please feel free to email, I will try to answer your question within a 24-hour period.
· I pack things carefully and securely to the best of my ability, and use ample packing material. I do not charge for handling and packaging.
·Domestic - Iusually ship USPS Priority Mail, though on smaller, less expensive items, I offer First Class. I do include delivery confirmation free of charge, which enables you to track it. You can make a request as to how you want something shipped, or have any added service USPS provides, and if it's within weight limits of that service, I can accommodate.
·International - I will ship USPS First Class International, unless otherwise requested. For anything weighing more than 4 pounds when packed, or valued at $400 and above, I cannot ship First Class, it must go either Priority or Express Mail. For more expensive items, I like to ship Priority Mail, as insurance can be purchased, and it is a more reliable service. In my attempt to keep your shipping costs to a minimum, I DO NOT INCLUDE TRACKING OR INSURANCE in my shipping costs. If you want either of these services, they are in addition to the prices quoted on the listing:TRACKING/REGISTERED MAIL: $12.95 extraINSURANCE: Approx. $1.00 - $2.00 per $100 Please e-mail for approximate shipping rates before offerding, since they vary depending on where you are located. Also, keep in mind, customs can hold a package for however long they deem necessary - that is out ofmy control.
· I absolutely will combine shipping when purchasing two or more items. I will do everything I can to save you money if possible, however, the safety of the more costly items is a priority, and may add to shipping costs.
· Shipping will usually be immediate once payment has cleared, however, I reserve the right to do so up to 5 days following the sale, as I am often out searching for antiques.
· Payment expected within 5 days, (if not able to, please contact me in advance of the sale to make other arrangements).
· Per 's policy, I can accept PayPal, or for those of you local, pay in person when you pick up.
· I process my response, usually once a month, and I do take it seriously.I hope you will as well.
Thank you for your interest and thanks for offerding,
James Cyr
