Flexeril maximum dosage
Common Questions and Answers about Flexeril maximum dosage
I seem to have twitching that is at least in part related to Zoloft (Sertraline). Upon visiting urgent care when the twitching became really disruptive due to its frequency, the doctor first eliminated any neurological disorders by a panel of six or seven blood tests. You may wish to ask your doctor about these tests, to eliminate your concerns about ALS and other neurological disorders. I was taking 200 mg per day of sertraline -- the maximum dose. I cut that back to 100 mg per day.

I am in need of another surgery and am awaiting insurance approval. Right now I am taking the
of 1 norco every 4-6 hours prn. So I am taking 6 tabs a day. I want to quit them, but am very scared of the w/d symptoms. Oh and that's not all. I take 2 10mg Flexeril 4 benedryl and 1 10mg ambien every morning (I work nights) before I go to bed. This is because I can't sleep due to all kinds of stress in my life. I have serious insomnia.

Opioid-induced hyperalgesia is often times mistaken for a growing tolerance to pain medication, which is why dosages are increased. Unfortunately, increasing the
is not only ineffective, but can worsen the hyperalgesia and cause even more pain, creating a dangerous cycle. The most effective and safest way to remedy the condition is to decrease the dose or detox and eliminate the pain medication altogether.

Teamed the Ultram up with Tylenol and I didn't notice a huge difference either. I have tried Celebrex (nothing),
(knocks me out), Soma (works ok, but off and on), Zanaflex (horrible reaction, seeing black, similar to low blood pressure). Methocarbamol (sp?) worked out, not so much help with the muscle, but did help a little with sleep. My Ultram ranges from 2 to 6 tabs a day. I am 100 lbs so if I take 2 too late in the afternoon I get "buzzed".

I had left side pain and muscle spasms so bad that I basically didn't sleep for a year. She prescribed
and Naproxen (prescription strength Aleve). She might as well have given me tic-tacs. I got a little relief but not really. She finally tried me on Baclofen, but I couldn't handle it. I am not on flexeril and neurontin and it has mad a difference.

's are very hesitant to give out very strong pain medications to a young person mostly because, once you reach your
, where do you go from there? It's a real problem and they want you to hold off as long as possible or there will be no where for you to go with your meds. It's a real problem for the younger generation. This is one time that I can say that I'm very happy that I'm 65 so that I can get the type of relief that I do. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to walk.

I tried the MS contin but it didn't work on me and gave me stomach problems, and I was taking ibuprofen, which helped, at the

to make a long story short, she upped my
to 40mgs of OxyContin three times daily and 30mgs of Oxycodone for breakthrough pain. Since she never seemed to follow up on anything, I just swithched Doctor's and my new Doctor seems to know what he is talking about. The new Doc. drew blood and did some other tests. The blood work came back fine, so he too believes that I probably have Fibromyalgia, but he is sending me to a Rheumatoligist too.

Last time I broke my toe, I got the worst spasms in my calf. So what to do? You're taking close to the
for Baclofen. I think you can go up to 8, but my neurologist gave me a scrip for Zanaflex instead, and told me to add that to my daily pill regimen. I'm not sure how it will help with the spasms - when I had them in my calf, I didn't have any. You can also try heat. It gave me only a little relief - but it was so excruciating that anything was better than nothing.

Johnson and Johnson recently changed the dosing instruction again, instructing patients to take less of the OTC tylenol and less often which tells me they still don't know what the safe
really is as there must still be people having liver problems who are taking close to 4,000 mg per day maximum. I got away from the vicodin because I would be nearing that max dosage, and that was too close for comfort so I understand you and your doctor's concerns.

This is my personal opinion, but I would take a muscle relaxer that is non-habit forming in place of a benzodiazapine. There are certain muscle relaxers such as
and Soma that you can take and get a good night's sleep from when going through opiate withdrawals. I had such a horrific time after quitting Xanax (I took it for 3 months), that I absolutely cannot believe that these drugs are even prescribed -- again, my personal opinion but one I feel very strongly about.

Since this drug is used in so many combination products, it is very easy to double up on
without even realizing it. Acetaminophen can be toxic to the liver. The maximum daily dose is usually 4000mg. One Percocet usually has 325mg of acetaminophen. One Vicodin (Lortab, Hydrocodone) usually has 325mg One Darvocet has 650mg. Two extra-strengh Tylenol tabs have 1000mg. It's in many cold remedies, migraine formulas, and OTC sleep aides.

Hi there... I'm afraid your numbers aren't adding up here because it sounds like you are taking 10 of these a day and not 5. You have mentioned having 300 of them for your prescription and in this last post...you are now calculating the acetaminophen to be over 3000 a day. That can only happen if you are taking 10 of them and not 5. 5 times 325 equals 1625 10 times 325 equals 3250 I don't know of any Dr.

this is a fairly broad-based area of herniation that is about 1 cm in width and about 4mm in

It's one thing to call the doctor and have them prescribe a change in the
or how often you take it over the phone, but I think when you're looking to change to a new med, it's best to do that in person. I'm sure you know all the different pain medications that are used. Maybe you need to be on a long-acting medication and then have something for breakthrough pain. There are so many different medications that you can use and so many different combinations.

The neurologist prescribed it to me and I started off with a low dose (100 mg) per day. The
benefit, for me, was when I took 300 mg 4 times per day. One in the morning, at lunch, around 6 pm, and right before bed. It took the itching away for a good while (at least 6 months). I'm not sure if I built a tolerance to the drug but, I've read that the most benefit is experienced at some point and then it tapers off. I believe that 2400 or so is the maximum dose.

As time went on, I needed to increase the
to manage the pain. I then began to feel awful the day after, with little to no energy I began taking Tramadol during those periods, to get rid of the pain of not being on pain killers (the irony of this situation does not escape me). It has now become a mandatory daily ritual in order to even function.

I also take another muscle relaxer (believe it is generic
) 2 x a day. My neuro sent me to a pain doctor to be considered for the pump, Baclofen and morphine. But he wants to try epidural steroid shots (I have done one with no results) first...but that is just focused on my cervical and neck area....I get muscle spasms in more than just my neck. I will quit with the ice cubes and just stick with water, room temp. and warm liquids.

( if each aleve is 100 mg taking 5 is the same exact thing as taking a 500mg naproxen. It is the exact same drug just a lesser
per pill since it is over the counter) I really hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything. Going to your doctor and working out a plan to take you from 60mg or so a methadone and gradually bring you down (like the program was SUPPOSED to do) would be the best course of action for you.

Ask a PharmD to calculate the

If you ever take that much, call 911 and/or a friend to drive you to the ER and have your stomach pumped and/or ingest large amounts of activated charcoal. He must have gotten all of his information from wikipedia or the like, or really mixed up his research. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!

I know what you are feeling, I'm also withdrawing from an opiate, for migraine headaches. I have gradually had to increase the
over a span of 40 years, headaches were more frequent, depending on events of life. I'm doing pretty well but I am not doing the cold turkey way, as you are.

The Norco were prescribed on 6/22 and I finished them off 7/29. I haven't used the
as the Norco seemed to work. I was only taking them in the evening 1/2 at a time up to a total of 2-2.5 pills. Never felt any type of w/d until last night when I didn't take any. I kept clinching my fists and didn't really get any good sleep. Took a half of flexerin and didn't really help any. Thought about taking more, but don't want to aggravate a problem that might be addiction.

That worked fine for about 6 months, so then my doc up the
to 80 mg 3x a day. and I have been on that dose for about five years. I hate taking these pills because I am living in a drug haze and just existing and not living. I decided to get off the oxys and told my doc my intentions. He told me that he would try to taper me off but it will tak about 9-12 months. I dont' want to take that long so I am goin cold turkey. I took my last dose about 24 hrs ago and I feel horrible.

I took a 30 day low dose of
(muscle relaxer) last March in an attempt to relax the pelvic wall/muscles. No effect. Last Monday I underwent a prostatic nerve block to temporary alleviate the symptoms. No effect. The only time I've ever gotten any relief was the three months following the swab. The swab was a horrible experience. However, after the inflammation from the swab healed, about 2-3 days, the irritation at the tip of my penis did go away.

Fugitive serial rapist found in PA driving homicide victim's car
MONTOURSVILLE, PA (WKTV) - Utica Police say a serial rapist who was sought by authorities after skipping his parole has been found in Pennsylvania, driving the car of a North Utica homicide victim.
Robert Blainey was pulled over during a traffic stop at 6:30 p.m. Monday evening in Montoursville, Pennsylvania, driving a 2001 Black Toyota Solara Convertible that belonged to 68 year old Linda Turner.
Turner was found dead inside the Davis Motel she owned on Herkimer Road on the morning of Thursday, November 3. Turner also lived on the property where the motel sits, and police said her car was missing following her death.
Robert Blainey is a serial rapist who was first imprisoned for the attempted rape of an eight-year-old girl in Madison County in the early 1980s. He was out on parole for that crime when he committed two more rapes. While recently on parole for the latter, he stopped reporting to his parole officer and essentially disappeared.
That was several weeks ago when Blainey was living on the 900 block of Rutger Street in east Utica.
Since authorities released Blainey's photo, the U.S. Marshals tip line had received numerous tip calls, but none of the sightings have delivered the fugitive.
Blainey seemed to have dropped out of sight - that is until the evening of Monday, November 7, when he was pulled over during a traffic stop in Montoursville, PA driving Linda Turner's car.
Investigators from the Utica Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division, are currently in route to Montoursville, PA.

Ping 193: Surface 2 Tips, Unified developer registration, Xbox One highlights, Windows 8.1 featuresNov 13, 2013 at 1:30 PM
@piercove: Backards compatibility with 360 titles isn't an intentionally omitted feature; it's simply not possible. The hardware of the Xbox One is drastically different from the 360, and emulation of the Xbox 360 would have a lot of resource overhead.
RE: [11:36] - How to do 8.1 upgrade if you can't use store.
You mention being able to get retail media and doing a fresh install or an upgrade. Last time I checked, MS weren't giving ISOs to consumers. And for me, the fact that people wanting to get the ISOs will have to do so through unsupported methods is a real slap in the face for people who have slower/metered connections and/or multiple PCs to upgrade.
I'm not sure if there's a reason this wasn't mentioned, but you can change user environment variables permanently. Go to the System Properties window, Advanced System Settings, and click "Environment Variables."

Also, worth mentioning the dot isn't solid white. It doesn't appear when using a non-composited theme, and it takes the window border properties of your current theme when using any Aero theme.

Class I railroad employment in the U.S. dropped to 149,614 in mid-June, down 1.27% (or 2,372 jobs) from mid-May and 8.45% lower than in June 2008.
Transportation (other than train and engine) was the only group to show a year-over-year improvement. Its 6,856 workers in June represented a 3.46% increase from June 2008.
The following employment groups were still showing declines in employment in June this year compared with June a year ago: Transportation (train and engine), 55,434, down 17.45%; maintenance of way and structures, 35,382, down 0.72%; maintenance of equipment and stores, 28,619, down 5.37%; professional and administrative, 13,276, down 3.13%; and executives, officials, and staff assistants, 10,047, down 0.02%.
Ontario has moved to assist short line Huron Central Railroad in the short term, providing funding to continue operations between the railroad's headquarters city of Sault Ste. Marie and Sudbury, and averting a shutdown of the short line set for August 15.
Member of Parliament David Orazietti said a letter written to Sault Ste. Marie Chief Administrative Officer Joe Fratesi noted that an applicationto the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corp. would be welcomed and supported if two key rail customers, Essar Steel Algoma and Domtar, also become involved in the short-term financing plan.
"NOHFC has indicated they would welcome an application and be supportive of considering short-term financing to help Huron-CentralRail," Orazietti said Monday. "I would expect an application will come forward and I know that every effort is being made to meet that Aug. 15 deadline."
Funds would address critical short-term infrastructure improvements to assure continued operation. Long-term funding for the shortline, a subsidiary of Greenwich, Conn.-based Genesee and Wyoming, Inc., remains unresolved. Huron Central has said the short line needs more than C$33 million (US$30.3 million) in upgrades to make it feasible.
July marked the ninth straight month Amtrak ridership dropped as cuts in business travel impacted ridership, attributable to the ongoing recession, the national passenger rail corporation says.
Ridership fell 8.4% to 2.5 million from the year-ago month. Short-distance route riders declined 9.6%; long-distance ridership fell 4.9%. Northeast Corridor ridership fell 6.5%, paced by a 12% decline in Acela travelers.
The decline follows six straight year of ridership records by Amtrak, and began last November. It also occurs as federal stimulus funds have allowed the carrier to begin rehabilitating sidelined passenger equipment to expand capacity.
The Montana State Land Board Monday, fearful of conflicting effort, rejected a right-of-way application from a proposed Wyoming border coal mine seeking to build a rail spur into Montana. The rail line would connect the Youngs Creek coal operation to the existing BNSF Decker spur line.
Land board members worried the Wyoming coal mine could compete with Otter Creek coal access plans that the state seeks to advance. State Gov. Brian Schweitzer said the issue would be revisited at a September meeting focused on developing the state-owned coal.
Montana's proposed access to Otter Creek coal reserves involves plans by the Tongue River Railroad, Inc., to construct 17.3 miles of new rail line. The project is opposed by ranchers and environmentalists, but in October 2007 the Surface Transportation Board issued a decision granting final approval to the Tongue River Railroad to construct the line, known as Tongue River III or the "Western Alignment," subject to environmental mitigation.
Britain's transport Secretary, Lord Andrew Adonis, has proposed a plan to create a network of 250-mph trains that would "progressively replace" short-haul flights.
"For reasons of carbon reduction and wider environmental benefits, it is manifestly in the public interest that we systematically replace short-haul aviation with high speed rail," said Lord Adonis. A public-private partnership is envisioned.
He said a new company, High Speed Two, will plan the first phase of the network, an $11.6 billion line between London and Birmingham.
As elsewhere, funding could be a problem. According to The Guardian, Lord Adonis acknowledged doubts over the potential of a line from London to Glasgow costing $48 billion.
He also said: "Other countries which have made high speed rail a priority have found it affordable by allocating long-term infrastructure funding to it. The French have decided to allocate 16 billion euros [$22.6 billion] to high speed rail between now and 2020. It looks to me the more you build it the cheaper it becomes."
New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) released a proposed new five-year capital investment program Monday. It adds up to $25.5 billion and includes, during the period 2010-2014, more than 500 new subway cars, 410 new regional railcars, 2,800 buses, signaling improvements and upgrades for the subways and regional railroads, station improvements, and improved access for the disabled.
MTA also released a draft 20-Year Capital Needs Assessment Plan. "Taken together, these documents identify the MTA's long-term infrastructure needs and a short-term plan to begin addressing them within current budget expectations," said the agency. They are available online at www.mta.info, where the public can also submit comments.
An MTA statements said: "Since 1982, the MTA has invested more than $75 billion in six successive programs that have restored the legacy of a system once on the brink of collapse. As a result, ridership levels are the highest since the 1950s, and our infrastructure is more reliable than ever: The distance subway traveled between breakdowns has increased 1800% for subway cars and 670% for buses and more than 500% for commuter rail cars.
"The proposed 2010-2029 Twenty Year Needs and Preliminary2010-2014 Capital Program are based on two guiding principles–rebuild the MTA's infrastructure and expand its system to accommodate growing demand. The $25.5 billion Proposed Draft 2010-2014 program focuses first and foremost on rebuilding the MTA's core infrastructure, which makes up 73% of the total program. Many of the proposed investments repair and replace fundamental components of the transit system," the MTA said.
In addition to rolling stock, signaling, and station improvements, the MTA contemplates such technological improvements as:
• A new contactless fare payment system to more fully integrate regional travel;
• Real timecustomer information to allow customers to optimize trip planning;
• Bus rapid transit initiatives, using low-floor buses, off-board fare collection, dedicated bus lanes, and signal prioritization to speed bus service;
• New train control systems to increase capacity and safety on subways and commuter railroads; and
• New subway transfers and strategic commuter rail investments to make the existing system work better for customers.
MTA said these " rebuilding investments are complemented by investments to expand the system to meet growing regional demand.
MTA's expansion plan includes the completion of its three ongoing projects and analysis of a number of new initiatives:
• First phase of the Second Avenue Subway, which will relieve overcrowding on the Lexington Avenue subway lines and carry more than 200,000 customers;
• East Side Access, which will save 76,000 daily customers up to 40 minutes a day by bringing LIRR trains to Grand Central Terminal;
• Extension of the 7 subway line to 34th Street and 11th Avenue, which will support development of Manhattan's Far West Side;
• Study of Staten Island's North and West Shore travel corridors, which will identify ways to support faster and more reliable transit service on Staten Island;
• Queens Boulevard Corridor study, which will evaluate solutions for meeting today's high demand and serving projected population and employment growth as well;
• Regional bus analysis to learn about the opportunities and challenges of a more unified regional bus system; and
• Continued study of Tappan Zee corridor, which will evaluate alternatives for the Bridge, including transit, to reduce congestion and improve mobility.
The American Public Transportation Association Monday released its latest "Transit Savings Report," stating individuals who rode public transportation saved on average $9,167 annually, or about $764 per month, based on the August 7, 2009 national average gas price and the national unreserved monthly parking rate.
The monthly report calculates the average annual and monthly savings for public transit users. The report examines how an individual in a two-person household can save money by taking public transportation and living with one less car.
APTA said the national average for a monthly unreserved parking space in a downtown business district is $154.23, according to the 2009 Colliers International Parking Rate Study. Over the course of a year, parking costs for a vehicle can amount to an average of $1,850.
APTA offers a calculator to determine individual savings with or without car ownership, available at www.publictransportation.org.
Communities lining Ontario's North Shore are racing to beat an Aug. 15 deadline to preserve freight rail service on the Huron Central Railway, linking Sault Ste. Marie and Sudbury. A committee formed to implement a rescue plan says any measure would require infrastructure investment by senior levels of the provincial government.
Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.-based Huron Central has said the short line needs more than C$33 million (US$30.3 million) in upgrades to make it feasible. The company, a subsidiary of Greenwich, Conn.-based Genesee & Wyoming Inc., also said it could not continue to operate the line at a loss.
New Democrat Tony Martin, minister of parliament (MP) for Sault Ste. Marie, said, "This rail corridor is vital to all communities in northern Ontario," adding that Ontario needs "the kind of rail transportation plans that the other provinces have are where the province and Ottawa are directly involved."
The plan at present requires a "buy-in" from municipalities and rail customers, but Martin insisted the region also needs a commitment from the provincial and federal governments to establish … such a plan."
But the Ontario Northland General Chairperson's Association believes a better solution, both for the short and long term, is to have Ontario Northland Transportation Commission assume control of the rail line.

Capri Town , Capri
Italy 80073
Tel: 39 081 837 0181
Concierge.com's insider take:
Currently the place to be seen eating (or picking at a few lettuce leaves) on Capri, this 120-year-old family-run restaurant had a design makeover in 2006. The old-fashioned trattoria decor has been replaced by a warm, urban minimalism that plays on dark brown and cream hues, with soft lighting and an ambient soundtrack. The owners, the D'Alessio family, greet major and minor celebrities like old friends, leaving nonentities like us to the waiters, but that's par for the course on Capri, and the service is, in fact, extremely professional. Aurora's nip and tuck has not carried through into the menu, which offers decent renditions of Caprese standards such as spaghetti alle vongole, grilled fish of various species, and specialty thin-crust pizzas.
Closed November through April.

text: The restless protagonists on Neko Case's latest and finest album, Fox Confessor, are outsiders with a taste for dangerous romance and the knife's edge, wandering in a doomed landscape straight out of Faulkner. Elegies like ''Star Witness'' and ''A Widow's Toast'' sound spooked, as if they were recorded at the bottom of a well. Moving further away from her early alt-country sound has sharpened Case's songwriting instincts; her death-haunted folk casts a beguiling spell.

Chairman Paul Gagnon brought the meeting to order at <= st1:time Minute=3D"30" Hour=3D"19" w:st=3D"on">7:30 p.m.
M/L: 35, 6-113-1 Sun Bridge Professional Center, LLC/Donald Ronning, 5 Old Bridge Street, South, Site Plan Review of proposed 6,240 s.f., 5-Unit Professional Office Building.
Presenting this case was Robert J. Balquist, Licensed =
Designer of Meisner Brem Corporation of
Mr. Balquist stated that this site is 1.39 acres in area. Along the south-easterly border there's an area of about 200 s.f. of wetlands that are classif= ied in the high intensity soil classification as group 5 which signifies poorly drained soils. Mr. Balquist s= aid that they conferred with their expert Peter Schauer who delineated the wetlands. There is no proposal to fill any wetlands, no proposal to have any construction activity in the adjacent 50-ft wetland/conservation district buffer. A retaining wall, also known as a fill wall, is planned adjacent to the 50 ft. buffer. The construction of the wall is th= e use of Uniblocks (precast cement block) and the maximum height at its greatest height of 6-ft. high. As it= 8217;s being built construction equipment can be on the upland side of the buffer = so as not to disturb the buffer. Between the wall and the wetlands a silt fence barrier will be place= d to catch any potential run off or erosion said Mr. Balquist. The proposed building is 6,240 sq.= ft. made up of 5 individual units. The roof run-off will drain into a recharger in the ground. It's a chamber unit, having = 10 inner chamber units. Run off = from the roof will flow and settle and slowly dissipate into the ground. Run off from other areas of the si= te, i.e. from impervious pavement/asphalt surfaces, will flow into a detention basin on the westerly side of the property where it is detained and slowly released through an emergency rip-rap spillway, through a grass treatment s= wale and then released back into a buffer. There is no trenching, no digging in the conservation district said = Mr. Balquist.
Mr. Dadak asked what storm event the system was design= ed for. Mr. Balquist said it was designed for a 2, 25, 50 and 100 year storm. The summary is that there is no in= crease run-off from pre to post development. The septic design is currently under design and review by Paul Zanow= ski our health agent said Mr. Balquist. It's not state or town approved yet. The leach field's location is proposed for the front under the pavement and the well just outside of the WCD. There is a shallow dug w= ell on the property which will be discontinued and filled in. Two older buildings shown on the property are to be removed.
Chairman Gagnon advised that this area may become clas= sified as a prime wetland area if approved at the March '07 town meeting, th= at this proposed location which is right on the border might be classified as a pri= me wetland. Chairman Gagnon stat= ed that we want to take some extra care and understanding of what's goin= g on with this proposal as it has a tributary from Beaver Brook.
Mr. Dadak asked if there was any plan in place by the =
to maintain the pond. He said=
concern was brought up at the Planning Board's meeting. Mr. Dadak sits on this board as he=
representative of the Conservation Commission at these meetings. The largest part of the lot will h=
impervious pavement and this is a concern.=
The only place for drainage to go is to the detention pond. Mr. Balquist said that this is goi=
ng to
be owner occupied and will be monitored often, probably daily if not
weekly. Mr. Stearns asked abo=
ut the
2 year storm event stated earlier.
That statement was clarified.
Mr. Gagnon asked if they had considered pervious pavement. Mr. Balquist said that it had not =
considered, that this concept was just recently introduced to him by planni=
director Jeff Gowan for a project he is working on for the
Ms. MacKay questioned Mr. Balquist about the removal o= f all the present vegetation which is currently sucking up water. Her concern is the large proposed = pavement area is a concern. Mr. Balqui= st explained the functions of the detention ponds, run-off and treatment swale= s. Mr. Balquist also said that this wi= ll be reviewed by the Planning Board and the town's consultant. Mr. Gagnon said that normally this= case would not be brought to the Conservation Commission because they are not do= ing a dredge and fill and that they do not need our approval, but that it went = to the Planning Board and they would like our input as it is next to a prime wetland. Mr. Balquist said th= at he was asked to come before the Commission for advisory purposes to the Planni= ng Board. Mr. Gagnon said that he favored mulch berms over silt fencing.&nbs= p; It is basically a pile of bark mulch and according to the wetland scientist that the town uses say it is more effective than silt fences he s= aid. Mr. Balquist asked if it was very stable, that he was not familiar with the mulch application. He uses hay bales, rip-rap swales = and grass treatment swales. Mr. S= tearns asked if this was a prime wetland would there be a state process and would = the criteria be more stringent. M= r. Gagnon said if it is not a prime wetland then the state has no jurisdiction. The state would= only get involved if there was a certain distance from the prime wetland. Mr. Gagnon said that we have not s= een the actual maps that define the actual edge of the prime wetland yet but th= is parcel is on the edge of wet and is poorly drained soils. He didn't know if this was contiguous with the prime wetland or whether the prime wetland ends 500R= 17; away, and then you just have another little area of wet soils. Mr. Gagnon didn't feel that = the Commission could give a good clear answer this evening with regard to making comments to the Planning Board. The construction of this parcel is in before the wetland becomes designated at a prime wetland said Mr. Gagnon. When Mr. West comes before the Commission this evening he will be asked if this parcel is in the proposed prime wetland that is to go before the voters in March '07. Depending on= the information that Mr. West gives this evening, we will make our recommendati= ons to the Planning Board.
Mr. Dadak asked about the test pits that have been dug= for the proposed septic system. He asked if any pits were dug where the proposed detention pond is planned and= how deep is the ground water. Mr. Balquist said that five test pits were dug. He referred to test pit #4 and #5.= Seasonal water table at #4 was 2 ½ feet and test pit #5 there was almost 3 feet. Mr. Dadak asked if the proposed detention pond was going to be in the water table. Mr. Balquist said that it was not supposed to intercept the water table.&nbs= p; Mrs. Edwards asked Mr. Balquist that if she was an abutter what woul= d be the biggest concerns. Mr. Bal= quist answered that every abutters concern is run off, they're always afraid that development of an abutting lot that there will be run-off onto an abutter's property and flood their home or their driveway. He feels that he has addressed tha= t and commented on the existing grade and the lowest area is where the detention = pond and treatment swale is and the general flow of the water is southerly. Mr. Gagnon said that the run-off g= oes in the direction of the parcel south of this parcel and a 24" culvert has been installed under the filled area of this abutting property. It's believed that this culv= ert accommodates a seasonal stream. Mrs. Edwards said that she was concerned about water flow going in a westerly direction. Mr. Dadak= said that if the proposed detention pond over-flowed would it then go into the n= ext parcel and through the culvert. The answer was yes that it would go into that culvert that is located on the lot south of the lot we are talking about.&nbs= p; Mr. Gagnon said that even if the lower Beaver Brook were a prime wet= land that this parcel would not be within the limits of the prime wetland becaus= e it is at least the width of this entire lot away from the prime wetland. Mr. West will be asked that questi= on when he comes before the Commission later this evening. Mr. Stearns said he believes the k= ey is the retention pond that is to be reviewed by the Planning Board's engineer and if it is designed to hold back a hundred year storm, that that= is the whole issue and it needs to be verified. Mr. Dadak said when the case came = before the Planning Board the concern was the large amount of impervious pavement = and if the detention pond had a problem, there wasn't any backup. Mr. Balquist said that the planning director introduced him to the pervious pavement just this week. Mr. Balquist wants to go forward w= ith the traditional, conventional asphalt paving.
Mr. Gagnon said that we may have to recommend to the Planning Board of having a backup which would be a treatment swale and the = use of pervious pavement.
This case is coming back before the Planning Board on =
West Environm= ental – Power Point Presentation on the Prime Wetland Study<= /p>
Warrant Artic= le – Proposed Prime Wetland
= o:p>
Mark West of West Environmental,
Mr. West said that this is "one cool wetlandR=
with local and state significance because of many interesting findings. Mr. West gave a bit of history of =
town's designated prime wetlands.&nb=
He said there are 12 existing wetlands in the town. Seven were designated in 1987 and =
additional have been designated since.&nbs=
He was not able to extract too much information from the follow-up
studies. He believes that tho=
were done by UNH students who used old soil survey and USGS maps. The original study was done by the
Conservation Commission under the direction of the chairman, Doug Horth, a
fresh water ecologist who did much of the work. The concentration appeared to be a=
systems and habitat life. The=
acreage of these wetlands is 415 and is spread out over 12 wetlands. The original prime wetlands includ=
lower Golden Brook (79 acres), and upper Golden Brook (72 acres). The
The lower Beaver Brook, by itself, excluding the islan=
that have been mapped out of it, is bigger than all 12 wetlands combined th=
were previously designated. I=
t is
416 acres in size. It is the
largest marsh in Pelham, a contiguous fresh water marsh system which is lik=
a key habitat for wading birds, bitterns and other species that may be in t=
that have not been found yet. It
also has a rare plant community of swamp white oak flood-plain forest. Mr. West said he feels this is one=
the exemplary ones in the state of
Mr. West said he spent the majority of his efforts wit=
h mapping
and evaluating this particular wetland for designation. Mr. West said he believes several
additional wetlands in town that are in the 100 acre range qualify but have=
been designated. Possibly bac=
k in
1987 there was an absence of beaver activity, poorly drained soils. The original prime wetlands regula=
required very poorly drained soils only.&n=
Mr. West said he believes that there are about 90% of very poorly
drained soils within the 416 acres.
These are flood-plains that hold lots of water. The marsh system alone might be a =
acre marsh said Mr. West. The=
has a lot of flexibility with how you designate prime wetland projects. As long as you document that it is=
to the town and that it is performing important functions that that is
satisfactory to the state. Portions of this wetland have recharge and seepa=
along the flood-plain and have discharge.&=
This system has a large surface water system that floods into large
areas, marshes, flood-plains and is overlaid by sand and portions of it go =
the ground and recharge aquifers.
Because of its size and getting surface water flooding into it on a
large watershed scale, it's a significant recharge system for the
town. It doesn't have t=
o be
over the most conductive aquifers to still provide recharge. Mr. West said, without a doubt, th=
wetland provides the most flood storage of any wetland in the town simply
because it's next to your biggest stream system and it's your
biggest flood-plain. It has a
variety of land covering the catch man are=
a but
its watershed position is the lowest in the town, it's on your way ou=

OTHER DISCUSSIONS (Walk-In Items)
Chairman Gagnon:
Emails were sent out to Commission members regarding Land Trust
Standards and Practices. It h=
been suggested that we adopt the national land trust standards which are pr=
extensive he said. He is not
prepared to recommend them to the town but asked for input from other
members. He feels that some o=
f the
requirements are beyond what we currently do, perhaps don't benefit
us. He feels that they are wr=
for private land trusts and sets ethical and procedural standards for what a
non-profit land trust should do. It includes everything from writing a miss=
statement to how to you collect money and how you manage land. He feels that there is a very smal=
l set
of sub-standards that would apply to a town like ours. Chairman Gagnon advised how we came
about this document. He said =
(Land or Community Heritage Improvement Program), which is part of the Stat=
e of
Member Dadak asked if this document was for current la=
that we own or as part of planning for the future. Mr. Gagnon answered that it talks =
criteria which you should measure, whether a parcel is something you want to
adopt – it talks about procedures for fund-raising – procedures
about managing the land after you have acquired it. We have a stewardship committee wh=
o is
doing a fairly good job in managing the parcels we have said Mr. Gagnon.
Chairman Gagnon reported that a gentleman came in to t=
town hall that had concerns about map 36 – 10/15 that is located off =
Member Paul Dadak asked if we had any reports from mem= ber Lisa Loosigian with regard to water samples that were done on Long Pond this summer. Chairman Gagnon expla= ined that she had been going to school nights and has had trouble attending our meetings.

At the turn of the twentieth century, concerns about naval rivalry inspired efforts to strengthen
Britains naval resources. Newfoundland was no exception. In 1902, the government authorized the
establishment of a 600-man Royal Naval Reserve. In October of the same year, the British Admiralty
assigned the HMS Calypso as a ship to train the members of the reserve.
The government paid the expenses of Naval Reservists from the outports who travelled to and
from St. Johns for training. Enlistees trained in St. Johns for 28 days and remained
available for service for five years.
On August 2, 1914, as concerns heightened about a European war, reservists were called to
active duty. Commander A. MacDermott expected problems with the call-up, as it was the
height of the fishing season, but his fears were unfounded. MacDermott reported that once the call was issued
every man-jack of them (responded) and with no trouble at all, though many of them had to walk fifty or sixty miles to the
nearest steamer or railway station (MacDermott 436).
Unlike the men of the First Newfoundland Regiment, who remained with their unit, the members
of the Naval Reserve were dispersed throughout the Royal Navy. MacDermott recounted that
Newfoundlands sailors were scattered throughout every flotilla and squadron in the war zone, and
earned high praise from their commanding officers everywhere( MacDermott 436). The transition to military life proved an
easy one for the reservists. Newfoundlanders took to naval life and routine like ducks to water . . . Their
conduct was exemplary, punishments were practically unknown, and every order was carried out with
cheerful alacrity and seamanlike intelligence . . . I may say, indeed, that there were no smarter-looking
men in the whole Service (MacDermott 436).
In addition to their service overseas with the Royal Navy, members of the reserve also served at
home, forming a protective guard at the Admiralty wireless station in Mount Pearl and manning a 12-pounder gun at
Fort Waldegrave to protect the entrance to St. Johns Harbour.
By the end of the war, 1,964 reservists had served. There were 180 fatalities. Sir
Winston Churchill later described Newfoundlanders as the best small boat men in the world (Rowe 374375). The Royal
Naval Reserve disbanded in 192021.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Earlier in the week we learned about Angelina Jolie's decision to have a double mastectomy to reduce her risk of breast cancer. The cause of breast cancer still remains a mystery.
However, a researcher at the University of Connecticut believes he may have discovered why there's been such large a jump in the number of cases over the past few decades
Doctor Richard Steven's published his hypothesis of a possible connection between light pollution and the rise in breast cancer cases in the late 80's.
He pieced together two separate studies. One looks at changes in hormone level and breast cancer while the other examines light's effect on hormone production.
30 years later his hypothesis gains momentum. It's the reason we can't see the stars at night, unless you are far from a city. But could it also be the reason the world has seen such a drastic increase in breast cancer cases?
That's the question Dr. Stevens posed in 1987. "Well maybe the pandemic of breast cancer is due to the increasing use throughout the world of electricity to light the night."
In 1980, there were 640,000 cases of breast cancer worldwide and by 2010 that number jumped to 1.6 million. Dr. Stevens believes that jump comes from all the artificial light we are exposed to every night while we sleep.
Most of us try hard every night to keep the light outside from streaming into our bedrooms. To do so we close the blinds and the curtains, but even when I do all of those things in my own bedroom, then turn off the light, you can still see the glow of the clock, my router, and my night light.
All the glowing disrupts our body's circadian rhythm which lets our body know to work during the day and rest at night.
Texas A&M Corpus Christi neuroscience professor Dr. Riccardo Mozzachiodi uses marine snails to study brain function since their brain are similar to a human brain, just on a smaller scale.
Dr. Mozzachiodi says when light disturbs our circadian rhythms it effects our our body's natural production of hormones.
"The major effect is that if there is a glow in the sky, if the light is excessively high that even in a submarginal way it initially it can effect the function."
It's the overproduction of estrogen and lack of melatonin that concerns Dr. Stevens. He says breast cancer is hormone driven and linked to the hormone estrogen. Melatonin is suppressed by light at night and it also influences estrogen which is what he thinks triggers the increased risk.
"The more we learn about circadian rhythms and body clock, internal body clock, and how light at nigh disrupts that the more important it is to dim down the lights during the night," says Dr. Stevens.
Cities across the nation, like Santa Rosa, California and Brainerd, Minnesota, are turning down the lights. Even Paris, France plans to cut down on the amount of lights it illuminates between 1 and 7 a-m.
The City of Corpus Christi on the other hand is not as quick to jump on board. Dr. James Mobley is a medical advisor to city council. He says it's too soon to suggest any drastic changes to our city's lighting.
"The data is just not clear. The AMA's recommendation is more research not to take any action at this time. It would be very preliminary for city council or anyone to take steps," says Mobley.
With more evidence presenting itself confirming Dr. Stevens hypothesis, his idea is now being taken more seriously in the medical community.
Dr. Stevens says there are simple things we can do to help reduce our risk, like wearing a sleep mask at night and using dim lights. If you wake up in the middle of the night, don't flip on those bright lights, rather use a red night light to help you see.

This was the year for the young stars of The Twilight Saga to reign on the red carpet, and now they're being recognized for it.
Glamour UK has honored Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner by listing them as three of their best-dressed stars of 2012. Perhaps shockingly, K-Stew (who placed third in the magazine's 2011 rankings) nabbed the No. 1 spot on this year's women's list, while Twilight costar Ashley Greene placed 50th. On the men's side, Pattinson and Lautner placed first and sixth, respectively.
Although they earned the most praise, the Twilight stars weren't the only franchise standouts to rule Glamour's list. The stars of Gossip Girl also placed pretty high, with Ed Westwick landing the No. 2 men's spot and Blake Lively and Leighton Meester placing No. 7 and No. 31, respectively, among women.
Harry Potter star Emma Watson, meanwhile, scored the No. 2 women's slot and earned praise for never putting a "well-heeled foot wrong." She led an onslaught of stylish Brits (this is Glamour UK, after all): Victoria Beckham landed at No. 3, her hubby David Beckham placed at No. 8 on the men's list, sisters and No. 4-ranked Kate Middleton beaut out sister Pippa, who landed in 47th place.
Rounding out the top 10 were Florence Welch at No. 5, Michelle Williams at 6, Cheryl Cole at No. 8, Olivia Palermo at 9 and Rihanna at 10.
Kim Kardashian jumped up 16 spots from last year's ranking to land at No. 16, and Mila Kunis lept from 40th in 2011 to 20th this year. New additions to the best-dressed list include Jennifer Lopez at 19, Angelina Jolie at 23, Emma Stone at 24 and Selena Gomez at 33. Katy Perry, Jessica Alba, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Jennifer Aniston, Taylor Swift, Reese Witherspoon, Zooey Deschanel and Kourtney Kardashian also all placed on the list.
On the men's side (which only ranked 10, as opposed to the 50 females), Johnny Depp snagged No. 4, Ryan Gosling was No. 5 (he's No. 1 in our book!), Zac Efron was No. 9 and Will Smith rounded out the list an No. 10.

Dads, get ready to pack that lunch box and escort your little one to class.
On Tuesday, fathers are being encouraged to take their children to school.
Education officials say taking part in the daily drop-off routine is a way to stay engaged in their children's lives.
"Bringing dads together and letting them know the imperative of taking their kids to school and the investment that they are actually making in their kids by taking them to school and the blessing that could be realized from taking their kids to school," said one person at the event.
"The importance of having dads involved in one child's education and overall well-being outcomes is something that we strongly believe in, and we know, and the research backs up," said Robert Martinez of New York City Children's Services.
"I'm going to make sure he has his father," said another person. "It's tough when you grow up without your father, and I see the difference."
"Dads Take Your Child to School Day" is part of Mayor Michael Bloomberg's citywide Father Initiative.

Story Idea
A team of four UW-Eau Claire computer science students — including two from Eau Claire — took top honors in the first Windward International Collegiate Programming Championships. Windward is a business software development company based in Boulder, Colo. UW-Eau Claire's team consisted of James Felton, a junior from Wauwatosa; Jonathan Fretheim, a senior from Eau Claire; Rebekah Sippert, a senior from Eau Claire; and Corey Schulz, a junior from Lannon. The students earned the Windward Code Wars Trophy by defeating their closest rival by a final score of 502-468. The UW-Eau Claire team competed against hundreds of teams from a group of prestigious universities across North America: Boston University, Carnegie Mellon University, Cornell University, Harvey Mudd College, Georgia Tech, Purdue University, Stanford University, University of Illinois, University of Massachusetts and University of Toronto. Competitors matched wits against fellow computer science students in a previously undisclosed programming game. More information about the competition is available online.

Story Idea
UW-Eau Claire students have a new option when looking for a ride away from campus. Zimride is an online ride-sharing program now available to UW-Eau Claire students. Several other campuses in Wisconsin and Minnesota use the system so students can share rides with the users from other schools. The program is supported by the Student Office of Sustainability, Student Senate and Parking and Transportation Services. Zimride makes it easy for students to get where they need to go while saving money and the environment, said Ben Ponkratz, who was director of the Student Office of Sustainability when work on the project began. Zimride also will help the campus ease the pressure on parking, and it has the capacity to increase the number of people making regular commutes together, he said. The university's previous ride board system, which had been in place for decades and was not online, eventually will be discontinued. For details, contact Ben Ponkratz at 715-214-5335 or firstname.lastname@example.com, Brittany Whited at 413-687-4178 or firstname.lastname@example.com, or see www.zimride.uwec.edu.
