Mumps is a viral infection. The infection causes fever and swelling of the parotid glands.
Because of the mumps
, this condition is not as common as it once was in the US.
Swollen Parotid Gland

The virus is usually spread through contact with an infected person's saliva. The mumps virus is highly contagious. It spreads easily among people in close contact.
These factors increase your chance of developing mumps:
Tell your doctor if you have any of these risk factors.
About one third of cases have no symptoms at all. Symptoms often occur 2-3 weeks after exposure to the virus.
Mumps may cause:
Other areas may also be affected, such as:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and personal medical history. A physical exam will be done. The doctor will diagnose the mumps based on these findings.
There is no specific
for mumps. Mumps is caused by a virus. Viruses cannot be treated with antibiotics. Do not treat mumps with
Do not give aspirin to children or teens with a current or recent viral infection. Check with your doctor before giving a child aspirin.
In general, mumps will last about 10-12 days. Try these comfort measures:
In most healthy children, complications are rare. When complications do occur, they include:
Getting vaccinated is the best way to prevent mumps. The vaccine contains live viruses that can no longer cause disease.
The mumps vaccine is usually given in combination with:
The regular schedule for giving the vaccine is at age 12-15 months and again at age 4-6 years.
Ask your doctor if the vaccine is right for you. In general, avoid the vaccine if you:
If you are not vaccinated, avoid contact with someone who has mumps. Discuss the benefits of vaccination with your doctor.

I was really happy to see that it would be a joint practice. The more people the merrier. Either the octoberfest or the revel sound fun, but we will probably head for home to put the kiddo to bed.

Mason County Jailer Gerald Curtis told The Ledger-Independent (http://bit.ly/1A4Tj46) that 27-year-old Audrey Fulton, who had been an inmate since Oct. 28, died Friday.

I had received a small tester of this fragrance at local department store, and really liked the scent. I wasn't interested in paying the full amount, so checked on here, and ta da! They carried the set, and at basically half off! I'm not good at describing the scent, but here is directly off the JM website: Utterly romantic and feminine, the Jessica McClintock fragrance is a delicate white floral blend of bergamot, ylang-ylang, rose, white jasmine and lily of the valley. Love it!
I was very pleased with my purchase. I recieved the item on a timely basis and the price was great!!!
I have long been a fan of Jessica McClintock perfume. I even named my daughter Jessica. I saw the Overstock ad for the perfume set while browsing another website. At about half the price of what it cost in a retail department store, it was a no-brainer. The product is exactly what I would have purchased at any high-end retailer's. My only disappointment is that I didn't know that Overstock.com carried this kind of product sooner. Think of all the money I could have saved!
I receive compliments always when I use Jessica McClintock. It reminds me of the floral fragrances of Hawaii. It's a must...
I love, love, love this perfume by Jessica McClintock. I even bought my mother the gift set for her birthday.

Kate Gosselin: Kids NOT Traumatized By Celebrity Wife Swap!by Free Britney at . Comments
Kate Gosselin is speaking out against rumors that her kids were traumatized by their stint on Celebrity Wife Swap - or that she slammed Kendra Wilkinson.
The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star and Kendra star traded places Tuesday night, setting a ratings record but receiving considerable flak as well.
At least in Kate Gosselin's case. No surprise there.
Certain comments she made appeared unnecessarily critical of K-Dubs, while rumors started flying that her kids hated the experience and were traumatized.
How does she respond to those allegations?
Kate tells celebrity news show Extra that they're false, and in the clip above, has nothing but glowing praise for Kendra - and her husband Hank Baskett.
She said ABC's editors probably tried to highlight the differences between them for effect, but there is no feud with the Playboy model, only respect.
As for the kiddos, she says they were on board with CWS and had a blast ... which is not actually hard to believe considering they got Kendra for a week.
She may be the epitome of laid back.
Case closed? Seven million people watched, so the joke is on her critics. Good luck to Mark McGrath and Coolio next week, trying to top that figure.
Her kids were traumatized when Kate came back.
It is painfully obvious how sad those children are. Kate will do anything at the expense of her kids. So she got another 15 minutes of fame. Will it ever stop? Kate needs to go back to being a nurse. She is not a star. She is not a entertainer. She had a reality show and it is over. To raise your kids as though they are in the army is sad. Those kids looked incredibly sad but as usual they went along with the program. They better go along with their mom before she brings out the wooden spoon.
Well the kids are a 1,000,000,000,000,000, times better with her than the looooooooosser father she should of put hes ass to pay child support
She really does think she's a star lol does she ever tell the truth!
K.G., was fascinating; but more than that, her children and how they have grown, are so well balanced. They love their routine and Kate has done a remarkable job. She has insured that her children enjoy their lives, school, meals, chores and are rewarded by how well they are get along. These are amazing children and I look forward to them as they grown, they are smart, mannerly and laugh and enjoy life because they have a mother who insures they have family life coupled with fun. I loved watching those children. I'm sure Kendra was amazed that Kate G did this by herself, she put her children first, not herself, but her children and it certainly showed. I would love to see a monthly show or a quarterly show about Kate and her children. If you do not like Kate Gosselin, don't watch her, but she is not circling a drain and she is now pass the divorce, the terrible bullying, the horrific blogs and she is proving that she has learned a lot about the Industry she wants to work in. Kendra's hubby did not resent Kate and he really laughed a lot and he enjoyed being able to relax. Kendra is certainly not a bad person, she is in a very pressurized business and she is always on TV in some show or another, so Hank makes it possible for her to relax when she can. It is great she realizes she is missing time with her little boy while he is young and that hunk of a husband; so I think Kate felt good about the world seeing how mature and fun loving her children are. Kate, I applaud you. You did it. Anyone defaming her? Jealousy, just jealousy, Kate lost weight, takes care of herself, is healthy and so are those children. All of them participated, spoke and were very vocal about their likes and dislikes, they like their life. Sad that Dad saw it all as too much work and left for a fantasy life with the bimbos, he has a great one now, she supports him, that is what he needs, a mother who pays the bills, lol
Once again Kate made it all about her, noone else gets the credit for the ratings, her kids are scared of her. She can;t even hold a intelligent conversation unless it's about her. She claims she does'nt get time for herself, that is just another lie, She is the most self absorbed woman I have ever seen, period.
Kate Gosselin? Will we ever get rid of that bitch?
Are either of these two relevant?
THE 'OL DOG FACED eMUD BABE QUEEN STILL AROUND ????

Go cloud, young man
Summary: The Web has become an effective platform for automating most forms of administrative and professional work. We're just at the beginning of a white-collar shake-out that is going to transform professions and work prospects, for good or ill.
Several times recently, I've advised personal acquaintances who find themselves between jobs to investigate any opportunities to put their skills to work online. The rationale is simple. In an economic recession, everyone is looking for ways to save money, and therefore the growth sectors are those that help people and businesses do more with less — low-cost supermarkets and fast-food outlets, second-hand and discount traders, and the subject of this article: any online service that strips out excess costs through automation and remote access to administrative and professional expertise.
By and large, online is cheaper because it eliminates all the time frittered away moving information from one place to the next and moving people from one meeting to another. Imagine how much time is saved when a customer looks up data for themselves and then enters new information directly on an online form, instead of having to phone up and ask questions, then fill out a paper form and have someone re-enter that data on receipt. Think how many more people an adviser can deal with if instead of handling physical paper and attending face-to-face meetings, they can just pick up the phone to their client and discuss documents and data they're both viewing online.
That time saved is a huge salary cost that an online provider no longer has to bear. It's a cost burden that keeps prices high at conventional operators. Businesses that transfer custom from their old providers to go online no longer have to pay those inflated prices, so they save money. The online providers still make a profit on their lower operating costs, and as they grow they make even more money. Those cost savings and profits come at the expense of the people who are no longer employed on those wasteful, time-intensive manual processes and face-to-face meetings at the conventional providers. Jobs and profits move from the old providers to the new, which is why I say to my friends, look online for opportunities.
Nowhere is this more true than in the kind of professional work in which most of my personal acquaintances have made their careers — banking, insurance, law, accountancy, sales and marketing, journalism and so on. Yet despite this, most of the people to whom I give this advice completely ignore it, either because they don't get it or they don't want to believe it.
What they don't understand (or refuse to accept) is that the Web has reached a point of maturity where it has now become an effective platform for automating most forms of administrative and professional work. We're just at the beginning of a white-collar shake-out that is going to transform professions and will ultimately reshape our cities as office-based work becomes more mobile and dispersed. It's going to be a scary, disruptive transformation — more on that below — but resistance is futile. This change is as inevitable as the industrial revolution, and the only way to survive and thrive is to understand and embrace it.
The accounting profession provides a useful case study. AICPA, the professional body for chartered public accountants in the US, has been encouraging its members to wise up the Web for several years, and a few months ago it endorsed online accounting vendor Intacct (disclosure: a recent client) as a provider of services to its members through its CPA2Biz subsidiary. Dan Druker, Intacct's SVP of marketing and business development, explained how this changes the way accountants work in a posting to Enterprise Irregular Vinnie Mirchandani's blog:
"Since the cloud makes physical location meaningless, accounting firms can for the first time align labor supply with client demand. They can apply labor from less expensive geographies and can bring talented, part-time professionals back into the workforce. Because they can serve clients anywhere, it is much easier to specialize, providing better career paths for their people and higher value for their clients ... Because the cloud is always on and always connected, both the accountant and their client always share the same financial information in real-time. This allows accountants to become proactive advisors — they are no longer looking at a QuickBooks file at the end of the month or a shoebox of receipts at the end of the year ... For the average mid-sized accounting firm, the business impact of moving to the cloud is, give or take, a 50% increase in productivity."
The posting highlights the beneficial impact of embracing the Web. The computers take over the drudgery, accountants graduate from mere bean counters to become business advisors, specialists can make the most of their expertise, qualified professionals bringing up children or living in unemployment blackspots can rejoin the workforce. And that 50% productivity boost? That's someone's job on the line, either because the firm slims its own workforce or because it wins business from a rival.
In a recent ZDNet blog posting, Tom Foremski encapsulated that productivity effect in this chilling phrase: The Internet devalues everything it touches. In many industries (and accountancy is probably one of them), a 50% productivity gain is barely scratching the surface of what's achievable when this really gets going. Foremski talks in terms of "Internet-based disruptive business technologies" that are "at least 10 times more effective at one-tenth the cost," citing the impact of online classified ads site Craigslist on print classified advertising as the most dramatic among more than a dozen different examples:
"Craigslist's use of Internet technologies has managed to transmute $10 billion in value into $100 million. It's the opposite of the dreams of alchemists — Craigslist has managed to transmute gold into lead. That's what the Internet provides — the means to dramatically devalue an existing industry."
It's a depressing existence these days if your job is selling ads on a newspaper. At my bank, staff at the local branch are error-prone, listless and officious, whereas when I call the online call center, they're sparky, pleasant and efficient. It's going to get more and more dispiriting for people in jobs on the raw end of this trend. That's why my advice to younger neighbours and relatives is to seek their opportunities in the cloud. At least some of my compatriots are taking the advice, according to the BBC.
Some may find it scary, though, as the Web makes it possible to contract work by the hour or minute, eviscerating established notions of job security. In a keynote presentation at SaaS Summit earlier this year, Maynard Webb, CEO of on-demand contact center service LiveOps, talked about what struck me as a brutally Darwinian competition for survival among operators working in the cloud:
"Picture being able to get as good or better results from the cloud as you could from an employee in the cubicle next door. And when your business spikes — or your world melts down — it just bursts up and down. And the poor performers don't get fired, they just fade away."
Webb explained that his workers prefer it that way (for more on the model, read this NYTimes write-up). But it's a huge turnaround from the expectation of a job-for-life that became the norm for my parents' generation in the second half of the last century:
"What we see happening in LiveOps today is that people want to work differently than ever before," said Webb, explaining that they get to decide what hours they work. "They have to be good, but they get to be in control of their destiny, maybe for the first time in their lives."
As this upheaval works its way through society over the coming years, few people are going to feel truly in control of their destiny. Those determined to succeed by embracing the cloud and the Web will have the best chances. In contrast to earlier waves of automation, I suspect those who do physical work will find themselves least affected. People will still be needed to drive trucks and buses, repair homes and automobiles, care for the sick, the elderly and the young. The most affected will be those who shuffle paper, sit in meetings, transmit information and apply knowledge. Their jobs are going to change beyond recognition, if not disappear altogether.

Isuzu has taken to advertising its not-for-North-America KB pickup truck with a unique initiative. The company wanted to apply the Google Street View philosophy to some of South Africa's more remote off-road trails, and the result is Isuzu Trail View. Using multiple action cameras situated in a 3D-printed housing strapped to the top of the truck, the crew began bouncing along dirt and rock paths, recording all the while. They also shot additional video and worked with experts to provide excellent clips on how to navigate common off-road obstacles.
You can watch the making-of video below, and you can head over to the Trail View site to poke around a few South African trails for yourself. All we want to know is, how long before Jeep does the same here in the US?

Kiss Plot Major Vinyl Reissue Series
Kiss will re-issue nine of their old albums on vinyl in March of 2014, and also release their 1998 effort 'Psycho Circus' on the format for the very first time.
Kiss will re-issue nine of their old albums on vinyl in March of 2014, and also release their 1998 effort 'Psycho Circus' on the format for the very first time.
Given the rock n' roll lifestyle he's led, we can expect a lot of juicy gossip in Paul Stanley's upcoming autobiography. But in a new interview, the Kiss singer says that, in the book, he also discusses something a lot more serious, his lifelong struggle with microtia and partial deafness.
Former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley says he's happy to perform with his former bandmates at the upcoming Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony -- as long as he's the only one wearing his famous makeup.
Now that Kiss have finally been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the next big question is, Will the original foursome, who have been apart for about a decade, perform together at the induction ceremony in their former hometown of New York City in April?
Kiss were one of the top arena draws of the '70s, staging some of the most impressive concert spectacles of that era with their over-the-top theatrical performances. But the power of their live production almost cost guitarist Ace Frehley his life at a gig on Dec. 12, 1976, at the Lakeland Civic Center in Florida, when an unforeseen technical glitch caused him to nearly be electrocuted onstage.
Some very lucky young music students are about to receive a helping hand from an impressive array of rock's biggest names.
Gene Simmons stopped by a recent edition of CNN's iReport show to field some questions from fans, and the results proved every bit as entertainingly direct as we've come to expect from the Kiss frontman.
Ace Frehley said he's come to expect blindside insults from Gene Simmons. So he wasn't totally surprised by the recent spate of comments made by his former Kiss bandmate, who Frehley said "has no friends -- he's not respected by his peers."
Thump... thump... thump... THUD! THUD! THUD!
What's that sound, you ask? Oh sorry, that's me pounding my head against this desk after seeing the set lists from the third annual edition of the Kiss Kruize. The group broke out a generous helping of rarely heard early songs for these cruise ship shows, including their first-ever performances of 'Almost Human' and 'Anything for My Baby.'

Olympic heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis misses out on being named 2012 Female Athlete of the Year
Last Updated: 24/11/12 2:03pm
Jessica Ennis: Pipped at the post by American sprinter Allyson Felix
Britain's golden girl Jessica Ennis has missed out on being named the 2012 Female Athlete of the Year at the IAAF awards ceremony in Barcelona.
Ennis, 26, was crowned Olympic heptathlon champion in front of an adoring home crowd in London and was on the three-strong final shortlist.
However, the Sheffield-born star missed out to American sprinter Allyson Felix for the main gong after her impressive three gold medals this summer.
Felix won the 200 metres and the 4x100m and 4x400m titles to add to her solitary gold medal she won in Beijing four years earlier.
New Zealand shot putter Valerie Adams had also been in contention.
Meanwhile, Usain Bolt won the men's award for the fourth time in the last five years.
He beat Olympic 800m champion David Rudisha and 110m hurdles gold medallist Aries Merritt.
The pair have both set world records this year, while Bolt successfully defended his three sprint titles.
