Another View -- David Fink: When discussing passenger rail, do not forget the costs
Unless I am mistaken, freight rail service is already alive and well in both southern and central New Hampshire, with Pan Am Railways being the major provider of such service to a growing customer base that now numbers more than 35 active rail users in the region.
Perhaps more troubling than the mayor's perception of freight service in New Hampshire, however, is a subsequent comment that, "there is no transportation out there that isn't subsidized today . everything is subsidized." With all due respect to the mayor, that statement is simply incorrect when applied to freight railroads such as Pan Am.
In fact, while other transportation modes must rely on subsidies for their operations, Pan Am neither requests nor receives similar subsidies to run its trains and maintain its freight rail infrastructure. Unfortunately, as politicians continue to promote the importance of passenger rail for New Hampshire, there has been no mention of the role that the private railroad owner might play in such an endeavor. It is my sincere hope that this will change as any discussion moves forward.
Nevertheless, I do agree with the mayor that subsidies will be necessary for any passenger rail operation in New Hampshire. My concern, however, is that discussions on this topic have so far failed to quantify the scope of these costs or the benefits to be obtained.
One need look only to the financial demands facing the MBTA in Massachusetts and Amtrak nationally to realize that the operation of passenger service brings many daunting challenges and that the costs of those challenges in New Hampshire will have to be borne by its residents.
Similarly, it is instructive to note the outcome of recent efforts by Minnesota to initiate passenger service to fully understand the risks of such an enterprise. There, a 40-mile rail line was upgraded at a cost of approximately $317 million for service into Minneapolis in 2009. Since the operation of the first train, ridership has consistently failed to meet projections, and the taxpayers of Minnesota are paying a subsidy of approximately $1 million per month to support a service that is failing to meet even muted expectations.
What these examples clearly show is that there are significant costs and risks related to passenger service in New Hampshire, and my concern is that to date the public discussion of this project has been limited only to unidentified "benefits" that will supposedly result.
To be clear, Pan Am has enjoyed long and successful relationships with passenger rail operators such as the MBTA and Amtrak, and we believe that passenger rail can be beneficial in the right circumstances. However, in order to realize these benefits, planners and politicians must also identify, discuss and plan for the inherent risks related to this service.
As it has done with recent MBTA and Amtrak service expansions, Pan Am is willing to participate in any discussion relating to New Hampshire passenger service, provided that all parties are willing to enter those discussions with a realistic expectation of what such service is to achieve.
David Fink is president of Pan Am Railways, based in North Billerica, Mass.

Double gate devices based upon the FinFET architecture are fabricated, with gate lengths as small as 30 nm. Particular attention is given to minimizing the parasitic series resistance. Angled extension implants and selective silicon epitaxy are investigated as methods for minimizing parasitic resistance in FinFETs. Using these two techniques high performance devices are fabricated with on-currents comparable to fully optimized bulk silicon technologies. The influence of fin thickness on device resistance and short channel effects is discussed in detail. Devices are fabricated with fins oriented in the <100> and <100> directions showing different transport properties.

Newfane man charged after rendezvous with teenApril 28,2013Online friendship
ends in charges
WARDSBORO A Newfane man was charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor after smoking marijuana with a 14-year-old girl he met on Facebook, according to Vermont State Police.
Officers found them in a car parked on Fairview Road in Wardsboro last week after responding to a report of a suspicious vehicle, police said.
Police say they determined that Daniel Burdick, 19, had been communicating with the girl through social media and they decided to meet. Burdick was cited to court on a misdemeanor charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, police said. He was also issued a traffic ticket for driving without a valid license.

Great Movie Ride
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 03-09-2011 - 10:48pm
If you could update Great Movie Ride, would you, and what would you think would be appropriate changes?
Most of this ride is great...not outdated at all, takes you through different genres of classics, but if I could, while I love both parts--there are 2 sections of Indiana Jones--you could put in something else on the first part.
|Thu, 03-10-2011 - 9:54am
Yeh - Alien has got to go. It doesn't even fit with the rest of the ride. :-)
|Wed, 03-16-2011 - 8:17am
For me, it's more that the Alien sequence just feels thrown in and out of place on the ride.
Tron (the one I watched as a kid, not teh one I took my kids to! lol) was groundbreaking for it's time and Disney owns teh rights to it (and the new one)
Matrix set new standards and did amazing things for movie-making. Same with Avatar.
Lord of the Rings is technically amazing.
|Wed, 03-16-2011 - 7:26pm
In comparison to the size of other sets in the ride, you could probably put 2 or 3 different movie scenes in this one section. At the very least, update the Alien section! It's so not Disney-quality anymore that it affects the ride.
Star Wars does have its own attraction, but then again so does Indiana Jones.
Sonya, I like your Wizard of Oz sequencing ideas.

Am I the only one who finds this disrespectful?
- 0Oct 28, '06 by klone, BSN, RNRight now there are two threads (one which was closed) devoted to "things you should know before coming into our department" and the tone of the thread is thinly-veiled contempt at ignorant, uneducated or silly things patients or patients' families say or do. I've been hanging around this board for a couple years, and these threads are a regularly occurring thing.
I haven't said anything in these threads, instead I just close the thread and move on. But whenever I read them, I can't help but feel how disrespectful these threads seem. I understand people are "blowing off steam" and all that, but I don't know. It still really bothers me, and makes me wonder if these people who are so contemptuous are really able to mask their feelings very well.
These threads often get SO big, which makes me wonder if maybe I'm alone in thinking that it's inappropriate and disrespectful to mock the patients we see, even if it is behind their backs.
- 1Oct 28, '06 by canoeheadI don't think they are disrespectful, and I enjoy the threads. These are my favorite threads when we all get together to blow off steam.
For example, tonight I had a woman inform me that she was allergic to water, and would need ginger ale to drink instead, and by the way, could I put a couple cubes of ice in it?
- 0Oct 29, '06 by 33-weekeras someone who started one of these vile threads, yes, i can say that we really can hide our feelings.
i get top scores on my evaluation for patient satisfaction/courtesy every year. in 15+ years of nursing, i have never had a patient complain about me that i am aware of. i have, however, been named in letters written by patients as one of their favorite nurses.
i think what you might be missing in these threads, despite all the little animated faces we can add, is the tone in which these things are said. the actual words we use to communicate are only a small fraction of total communication. when you read the words, your mind may put a different spin on it than the person who wrote it.
i really do give patients the benefit of the doubt - sometimes to a fault. i am kind to every patient, regardless of their situation. this takes self control. i need to 'blow off steam' somewhere. i bet that the people blowing off the most steam here are the ones who are most controlled in front of their patients. after all, if you let it all hang out in front of them, you'd have no need to vent.
- 0Oct 29, '06 by 33-weekeranother thought that occurred to me later...
many of us feel rather powerless over things in our society that we must simply endure, even though they are clearly wrong. (drug addicts popping out a micro preemie every year at the taxpayers' expense - not to mention the babies' expense... able-bodied people scamming the system and living off hard-working taxpayers... and the list goes on).
these threads, even though they may focus on individual, irritating things or people, give us a place to vent about such nonsense in our society at large. of course, when we deal with people face to face, it is different than complaining about the faceless masses, and we are able to have compassion for the person and give them the care they need, regardless of their situation.
- 0Oct 29, '06 by traumamomtxget over yourself.....if we didn't laugh at some of these things behind pt's and their families backs we might just cry in front of them; or worse really tell them like it is. We all have to have a place to vent and laugh with our sarcasm because our days are way to stressful and serious to have compassion 24/7. I have one: my pt is "lactose intolerant" but he eats ice cream all night long from the unit's fridge.
- 0Oct 29, '06 by SharonH, RNQuote from kloneThese threads often get SO big, which makes me wonder if maybe I'm alone in thinking that it's inappropriate and disrespectful to mock the patients we see, even if it is behind their backs.
No, you are not alone. We all blow off steam and lord knows I have vented on this board but so often these posts drift into pure contempt filled with stereotypes and out and out lies. Also, judging from the interaction I've had with the patient population often targeted in those threads, the principals are not nearly as good as hiding their dislike as they think. I have had patients who would rather suffer than be treated like dirt just because they are poor/uninsured/on Medicaid. Being poor in this society has become akin to a character flaw in our society and I see this attitude reflected in a lot of these threads.
- 0Oct 29, '06 by hogan4736Quote from traumamomtxNow now, we cannot judge...Maybe he had some milk trauma when he was younger, and can only have frozen lactoseget over yourself.....if we didn't laugh at some of these things behind pt's and their families backs we might just cry in front of them; or worse really tell them like it is. We all have to have a place to vent and laugh with our sarcasm because our days are way to stressful and serious to have compassion 24/7. I have one: my pt is "lactose intolerant" but he eats ice cream all night long from the unit's fridge.
- 0Oct 29, '06 by EmerNurseI agree with 33-weeker - this is only venting, and I'd NEVER EVER let my patient's get less than my very best care AND attitude. I don't make it a point to know their insurance status and even if I know, it makes no difference. Really, it doesn't.
But as was said, it does get frustrating night after night after night - and honestly, who understands best what we see and deal with but other nurses? My darling wonderful husband can sympathize, but he isn't THERE.
I get a lot of comfort from knowing that I'm not the only one who needs to vent - (that's a big thanks to all my follow nursies out there btw).
That said, I've gotten annoyed at some things I've heard folks at work say - I may vent but I keep it out of work and certainly NEVER where a patient might hear it.
Hugs to alla us nursy types!
- 0Oct 29, '06 by TweetyYou're entitled to express your opinion, despite it being a minority opinion, without being told "get over yourself".
I'm a bit torn. I hear similar things in the breakroom that I read on those threads, and really it amounts to no more than disrespectful gossip in the guise of "venting".
I think that as long as patient care is not compromised, there's probably no harm done.

Capillaria (nematode)
|Caudal extremity of male Eucoleus aerophilus (= Capillaria aerophila)[1]
|Scientific classification
Zeder, 1800
Capillaria is a genus of nematodes in the family Capillariidae (or, according to classifications, in the family Trichinellidae).
Since the taxonomy of the Capillariidae is disputed, species are included within the single genus Capillaria or 22 different genera (Amphibiocapillaria, Aonchotheca, Baruscapillaria, Calodium, Capillaria, Capillostrongyloides, Crocodylocapillaria, Echinocoleus, Eucoleus, Freitascapillaria, Gessyella, Liniscus, Paracapillaria, Paracapillaroides, Pearsonema, Paratrichosoma, Pseudocapillaria, Piscicapillaria, Pseudocapillaroides, Pterothominx, Schulmanela, and Tenoranema).[2]
Some species parasitic in fish, previously classified within Capillaria, are now included in Huffmanela (family Trichosomoididae).
Old literature, and sometimes modern medical literature, use Capillaria as a genus for species included in all these genera.
The term Capillariasis is generally used for diseases produced by species of Capillaria, even if the species is now placed in another genus.
Species in the genus Capillaria include (among hundreds of described species):
- Capillaria aerophila; modern name Eucoleus aerophilus; a parasite of the respiratory system of foxes and other mammals
- Capillaria gastrica; a parasite of rodents
- Capillaria hepatica; modern name Calodium hepaticum; cause of hepatic capillariasis in man
- Capillaria philippinensis; modern name Paracapillaria philippinensis; cause of intestinal capillariasis in man
- Capillaria plica; modern name Pearsonema plica; a parasite of the urinary system of dogs and other mammals
- Capillaria feliscati; modern name Pearsonema feliscati; a parasite of the urinary system of cats and other mammals

Too bad it still doesn't hold a candle to IE and BT.
It's still only a Vayne item.
Major Jae
Goes well with corki too
I think it works with Twitch's ult. That sounds nice on him.
Sybil Cut
That said, it's more effective than Last Whisper unless they have 100+ armor. Gives more AD, gives AS, shreds more armor.
It also costs 600g more, but overall Black Cleaver is a better item than Last Whisper.
Cause people have sub 100 armor for soooooo much of the game.
I like it on Kayle jungle
its more effective as a team item as well. adc and jungle eat when one has a bc
less armor = more dmg on everyone

Across Asia Pacific (AP), expanding mobility support for employees, customers, and/or business partners will be the top strategic telecom priority for enterprises in 2013, surpassing other telecom priorities like performing network management and consolidating operations equipment, rationalizing/consolidating telecom/communications service providers, and moving communications applications to the cloud.
While enterprises will invest in a range of mobility products and services, there are five key areas in particular which will attract the most investment in 2013. Vendors need to focus on the solutions and engagement models that meet customers' needs in these five areas and target the industries and countries where the demand will be greatest:

Now that we've been back from the holidays for a month, I'd like to round out the 2013 predictions season with a look at the year ahead in server virtualization. If you're like me (or this New York Times columnist), you'll agree that a little procrastination can sometimes be a good thing to help collect and organize your plans for the year ahead. (Did you buy that rationalization?)
We're now more than a decade into the era of widespread x86 server virtualization. Hypervisors are certainly a mature (if not peaceful) technology category, and the consolidation benefits of virtualization are now uncontestable. 77% of you will be using virtualization by the end of this year, and you're running as many as 6 out of 10 workloads in virtual machines. With such strong penetration, what's left? In our view: plenty. It's time to ask your virtual infrastructure, "What have you done for me lately?"
With that question in mind, I asked my colleagues on the I&O team to help me predict what the year ahead will hold. Here are the trends in 2013 you should track closely:
Posted by Corinne Munchbach on the CMOs Blog on January 9, 2013
I only just recently started watching Mad Men — a shock to many of my marketing peers and to regular folks who now think I've been living under a rock for the past five-plus years. I'll save my thoughts on the show for another time, but what strikes me at least once during each episode is how much everything (tactics) and nothing (strategy) have changed. Similar fundamental challenges weigh on Sterling Cooper's clients' minds and on our CMO clients' minds today: How do we connect with our consumers in a way that differentiates us from the competition? While Don Draper was limited to print and TV, thanks to digital platforms and tools, today's CMOs have an almost-infinite number of options with which to build relationships with consumers.
2013 is the year that digital takes on a much more significant role in marketing and business strategies at business-to-consumer (B2C) organizations, and CMOs will be responsible for shepherding the change. 2013 is the year that CMOs will leverage digital tools to drive innovation of new compelling brand experiences — not as add-ons or enhancements but as integral elements of the brand's messages, actions, and products that will differentiate your offering.
B2C CMOs, your 2013 resolutions should be to:

Vermont Has a Rental Problem, and It's Not Alone (and It's Not About Rent)
The NLIHC says a typical family with two wage earners would have to work a combined 86 hours per week at $8.60 an hour just to afford a basic two-bedroom apartment, which the group says is the "fair market value" for two-bedroom digs in the Green Mountain State.
A single renter needs to earn, on average, more than $18 an hour to rent the same modest two-bedroom apartment. But the average wage-earning renter in Vermont earns only about $11.60 an hour, the report says.
That doesn't include food, clothing, medical care, transportation and medical care, among other typical consumer financial obligations.
The NLIHC says it's not about singling out Vermont, although the state is the ninth-most expensive state in the union to live in, according to CNBC, trailing New York, California, Rhode Island, Maryland, Connecticut and Hawaii, among others. It's also the ninth-most expensive state in the union without major metropolitan areas to rent a home or an apartment.The way out, the group says, is to readjust how its federal housing dollars are allocated. "The federal government has used the tax code to make homeownership easier," says Sheila Crowley, president and CEO of the National Low Income Housing Coalition. "In reality, though, the benefits are largely going to higher-income people with million-dollar homes. It's time to make housing policy work better for middle- and lower-income people by reforming mortgage interest tax breaks and directing the savings to the National Housing Trust Fund to build and preserve homes affordable to the lowest-income Americans." For now, the NLIHC says that about two-thirds of Vermonters can't afford a decent two-bedroom apartment rental. That situation isn't expected to end any time soon, likely leading some Vermonters to wonder what life is like in New Hampshire these days.

No, taco tuesdays is.
good one!
Only if someone who like you asks the question,"Does this outfit make me look fat?".
1. honesty (work it out)

2. tact (work around)

3. ignorance (do nothing)

4. dishonesty (get over)

Fourth best
As long as you dont get found out.
Considering the fact that there can only be the two .... the answer is yes. It's also the worst, or anything you want to call it except best.

Because the best is honesty, then there's the other one. Pick a name. Doesn't matter.
worst deviation
No, dishonesty is the opposite of honesty. So the policy would be the opposite of best, which is worst.
If honesty is the best policy...does it have a return policy? If so than no Dishonesty is probably further down the list, probably a little bit above disloyalty?
What? Only if your not first, your last.

Santa Paula, CA United States
Duncan G. Stroik Architect
As an ecclesiastical architect by specialty, Duncan Stroik had no objection to giving the folks at Thomas Aquinas College, just northwest of Los Angeles, everything they wanted for their magnificent new chapel. The wish list: "Elements of Romanesque and the Spanish Mission tradition in California," says Stroik. "The really interesting kicker was, they liked the idea of an Early Christian basilica, with columns and arches. And then they wanted the cruciform." And a Renaissance dome. "I said, 'Oh, my goodness. That's never been done—or hasn't been done much," Stroik recalls.
Fitting all the forms together logically and structurally would take some invention. Early Christian basilicas have one long nave and an apse, and are seldom cruciform. A dome is heavy for the columns and arches of a basilica, and it really calls for a vaulted nave. There also was a tower to consider. The result of all this mutual inclusion is a convention-bending building dressed in a painstakingly crafted traditional guise. From the façades alone, covered in white cement stucco beneath terra-cotta tile roofs, the chapel might be a well-restored house of worship from California's early days, but in higher style. Close inspection, though, reveals carefully massed and stepped volumes of disparate origins that fit together like a puzzle.
On the outside, the chapel faces a green lawn with arcades that extend off to small pavilions, a kind of "Spanish version of the University of Virginia," Stroik says. It all makes for a sublime juxtaposition against the green hills behind the chapel.

New state laws for 2014
Nearly two dozen new state laws take effect at the start of 2014, including many provisions of the 2013 tax legislation approved by the N.C. General Assembly. Other new laws that take effect Wednesday provide that:
• Jurors who serve a full term on a grand jury don't have to serve again as a grand juror or juror for six years.
• Owners of plug-in electric vehicles must pay a $100 registration fee in addition to any other fees.
• Health care facilities that perform mammography exams must report breast density information to patients. Dense breast tissue may make it more difficult to detect abnormalities and increase the risk of cancer.
• Emergency workers can break into a car if they believe an animal inside is suffering or in danger. The same law also includes provisions intended to help pet owners find lost pets and relieve overcrowding and facilitate adoptions at animal shelters.
• Fees for many hunting and fishing licenses issued by the Wildlife Resources Commission will increase for residents and nonresidents. An annual sportsman/coastal recreational fishing license, for example, increases from $55 to $65. The same bill also creates a $10 bear management stamp that must be purchased before taking a bear. Revenue will go toward black bear research and management. The (Raleigh) News & Observer
N.C. involvement in gun case
There is a mounting political effort to come to the aid of a retired policeman in Virginia who was convicted of being a straw gun-buyer when he sold a 9mm handgun he had bought from a licensed dealer to his uncle in Pennsylvania.
He said he was just getting a law-enforcement discount for his uncle, but the federal government said that it was illegal and indicted him. The ex-officer, Bruce Abramski, appealed his conviction and the U.S. Supreme Court in October said it would take up the case.
Richard Dietz, an attorney with Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton in Winston-Salem, is one of Abramski's attorneys.
Twenty-six state attorneys general have filed a "friend of the court" brief in support of the ex-officer. Grass Roots North Carolina, a gun-rights group, and the state Republican Party have begun publicly pressuring N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper because he has not joined the case.

The dish on Long Island's restaurant and food scene
BloggersPeter Gianotti Erica Marcus Joan Reminick Marjorie Robins
Open in Farmingdale: Village Kitchen
Behold the club sandwich, in which a slew of ingredients that I usually avoid — iceberg lettuce, unripe tomatoes, turkey breast, white toast — are layered with two ingredients I'm always happy to see — bacon and mayonnaise. The result is a sandwich whose whole is usually far greater than the sum of its parts. That was the case today at Village Kitchen, recently opened in Farmingdale.
Village Kitchen takes the Main Street space long occupied by Bollingers, but the renovation has rendered unrecognizable that retro-styled ice-cream parlor. The new decor is sleek and modern, with neutral tones of leather, tile and granite. Village Kitchen's menu is firmly in the diner camp — sandwiches, salads, burgers, wraps and eggs, with some Greek specialties as well. No more homemade ice cream, though.
My turkey club ($10.95) came with good herbed fries. A Nicoise salad (made with hard-boiled egg, overcooked green beans, olives and, unconventionally, baby spinach, raw mushrooms and green peppers) and a more traditional Cobb salad were both $12.95, both serviceable. The club sandwich was the clear winner.

Oct. 5 (Bloomberg) -- Pakistan's third largest political party may quit the coalition of Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani after its key demands were not met, one of its leaders said, in a threat to the government's majority in parliament.
"Our ministers and advisers have submitted their resignations to the party chief," said Chaudhry Shahbaz Goshi, a vice president of the Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid) led by Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, in a phone interview. "The prime minister has failed to deliver on our demands, which include creation of new provinces and ending power blackouts. Now it's up to our leadership to decide whether we should remain part of the government."
Gilani needs the PML-Q's backing to maintain his majority in the lower house of parliament. Another partner, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, left the coalition in June citing policy differences. The Pakistan Peoples' Party of Gilani and President Asif Zardari has 125 lawmakers in the 342-member National Assembly, while Hussain's PML-Q has 50 representatives.
Hussain's party joined the ruling alliance in May, ending a rivalry with the Peoples' party going back four decades. Zardari, the husband of assassinated former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, had sought support as he struggled to revive growth in an economy battered by militant attacks and floods.
The Bhuttos lived in exile during two Pakistani military governments -- in the 1980s and from 1999 until 2008 -- that were backed by Hussain's family.

Disabled people and carers can revolutionise our economy
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
LONDON, EDINBURGH & CARDIFF, March 24th, 2014: In a landmark lecture at Swansea University this week, a leading Welsh historian and theologian will argue that our thinking about welfare and economics needs to be turned upside down through engagement with disabled people and carers.
In his presentation 'Disabled church – disabled society', the Rev Dr John Gillibrand will suggest that care-giving and care-receiving, as a basic and indispensible human need, is a means of exchange which can challenge our current assumptions about money and austerity-based economic policy.
"So much policy about public services is determined by people who may well never have never had the experience of being totally dependent upon the delivery of quality these services," Dr Gillibrand told the beliefs and values think-tank Ekklesia, which is co-promoting the event. "This was the situation for me and my family."
The title of the lecture 'Disabled church – disabled society' (Monday 24 March 2014, 7pm, University of Swansea) is that of Dr Gillibrand's book, which was nominated for the Michael Ramsay Prize last year.
"In the book, I reflect on the experience of caring for our son Adam, who is a young man on the autistic spectrum. If I was to sum up the message of the book it is that autism presents challenges to the whole western tradition of thought," says the Welsh Anglican priest and author.
"In my lecture I shall call for the creation of a 'care economy'. It is the kind of economy and society in which we all actually want to live," says Dr Gillibrand.
"In 2008 we discovered that the economic system was broken beyond repair. Instead of trying to make the existing system 'resilient' we should be trying to think through what new economic structures would look like.
"If your economic beliefs make you think that austerity is inevitable all that tells me is that it is time to re-examine your economic beliefs. The pain of doing that will be much less than the pain that austerity is bringing to so many lives.
"I will be dedicating the lecture to my son Adam. He is virtually without speech but has taught me so much," Dr Gillibrand says.
Notes for editors:
[1] Founded in 2001 and based in London and Edinburgh, Ekklesia examines politics, values and beliefs in a changing world. It is an independent, ecumenical think-tank which is not aligned to any particular denomination, but draws particular inspiration from the Anabaptist and 'peace church' traditions.

[3] John Gillibrand is a priest in the Church in Wales (Offeriad Anglican ac awdur). His book Disabled Church - Disabled Society is published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers (http://www.jkp.com/catalogue/book/9781843109686). His doctoral studies carried out at the University of Wales, Bangor, were on the applicability of the thought of Michel Foucault to Christian theology.

|Classification and external resources
Ototoxicity is the property of being toxic to the ear (oto-), specifically the cochlea or auditory nerve and sometimes the vestibular system; it is commonly medication-induced. Ototoxic drugs include antibiotics such as gentamicin, loop diuretics such as furosemide and platinum-based chemotherapy agents such as cisplatin. A number of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) have also been shown to be ototoxic. This can result in sensorineural hearing loss, dysequilibrium, or both. Either may be reversible and temporary, or irreversible and permanent.
Antibiotics in the aminoglycoside class, such as gentamicin and tobramycin, may produce cochleotoxicity through a poorly understood mechanism.[1] It may result from antibiotic binding to NMDA receptors in the cochlea and damaging neurons through excitotoxicity.[2] Aminoglycoside-induced production of reactive oxygen species may also injure cells of the cochlea.[3] Once-daily dosing[4] and co-administration of N-acetylcysteine[5] may protect against aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity. The ototoxicity of gentamicin can be exploited to treat some individuals with Ménière's disease by destroying the inner ear, which stops the vertigo attacks but causes permanent deafness.[6]
Macrolide antibiotics, including erythromycin, are associated with reversible ototoxic effects.[7] The underlying mechanism of ototoxicity may be impairment of ion transport in the stria vascularis.[7] Predisposing factors include renal impairment, hepatic impairment, and recent organ transplantation.[7]
The loop diuretic furosemide is associated with ototoxicity, particularly when doses exceed 240 mg per hour.[8] The related compound ethacrynic acid has a higher association with ototoxicity, therefore it is preferred only for patients with sulfur allergies.[9] Bumetanide confers a decreased risk of ototoxicity compared to furosemide.[7]
Platinum-containing chemotherapeutic agents, including cisplatin and carboplatin, are associated with cochleotoxicity characterized by high-frequency hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing in the ears).[10] Ototoxicity is less frequently seen with the related compound oxaliplatin.[11] Cisplatin-induced ototoxicity is dose-dependent, typically occurring with doses greater than 60 mg/m2, and tend to occur when chemotherapy is given every two weeks compared to every one week.[10] Cisplatin and related agents are absorbed by the cochlear hair cells and result in ototoxicity through the production of reactive oxygen species.[12] The decreased incidence of oxaliplatin ototoxicity has been attributed to decreased uptake of the drug by cells of the cochlea.[11] Administration of amifostine has been used in attempts to prevent cisplatin-induced ototoxicity, but the American Society of Clinical Oncology recommends against its routine use.[13]
The vinca alkaloids, including vincristine, are also associated with reversible ototoxicity.[7]
Ototoxic effects are also seen with quinine and heavy metals such as mercury and lead.[7] At high doses, aspirin and other salicylates may also cause high-pitch tinnitus and hearing loss in both ears, typically reversible upon discontinuation of the drug.[7] The erectile dysfunction medications Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis have also been reported to cause hearing loss.[14]
Ototoxic chemicals interact with mechanical stresses on the hair cells of the cochlea in different ways. For organic solvents such as toluene, styrene or xylene, the combined exposure with noise increases the risk of hearing loss in a synergistic manner.[15] Heavy metals, asphyxiants and endocrine disruptors have a variety of interactions as well. Specific toxicity limits for combined exposures are not well established. However, given the potential for enhanced risk of hearing loss, the noise exposures should be kept below 85 decibels, and the chemical exposures should be below the recommended exposure limits given by agencies such as OSHA, NIOSH, or ACGIH.
No specific treatment may be available, but withdrawal of the ototoxic drug may be warranted when the consequences of doing so are less severe than those of the ototoxicity.[7]
It is difficult to distinguish between nerve damage and structural damage due to similarity of the symptoms. Diagnosis of ototoxicity typically results from ruling out all other possible sources of hearing loss and is often the catchall explanation for the symptoms. Treatment options vary depending on the patient and the diagnosis. Some patients experience only temporary symptoms that do not require drastic treatment while others can be treated with medication. Physical therapy may prove useful for regaining balance and walking abilities. Cochlear implants are sometimes an option to restore hearing. Such treatments are typically taken to comfort the patient, not to cure the disease or damage caused by ototoxicity. There is no cure or restoration capability if the damage becomes permanent,[16][17] although cochlear nerve terminal regeneration has been observed in chickens,[18] which suggests that there may be a way to accomplish this in humans.
Symptoms of ototoxicity include partial or profound hearing loss, vertigo, and tinnitus.[7]
The cochlea is primarily a hearing structure situated in the inner ear. It is the snail-shaped shell containing several nerve endings that makes hearing possible.[19] Ototoxicity typically results when the inner ear is poisoned by medication that damages the cochlea, vestibule, semi-circular canals, or the auditory/ vestibulocochlear nerve. The damaged structure then produces the symptoms the patient presents with. Ototoxicity in the cochlea may cause hearing loss of the high-frequency pitch ranges or complete deafness, or losses at points between.[20] It may present with bilaterally symmetrical symptoms, or asymmetrically, with one ear developing the condition after the other or not at all.[20] The time frames for progress of the disease vary greatly and symptoms of hearing loss may be temporary or permanent.[19] Ototoxicity in the cochlea can also produce tinnitus.
The vestibule and semi-circular canal are inner-ear components that comprise the vestibular system.
Two types of otolith organs are housed in the vestibule: the saccule, which points vertically and detects vertical acceleration, and the utricle, which points horizontally and detects horizontal acceleration. The otolith organs together sense the head's position with respect to gravity when the body is static; then the head's movement when it tilts; and pitch changes during any linear motion of the head. The saccule and utricle detect different motions, which information the brain receives and integrates to determine where the head is and how and where it is moving.
The vestibule and the semi-circular canals together detect all directions of head movement.
The semi-circular canals are three bony structures filled with fluid. As with the vestibule, the primary purpose of the canals is to detect movement. Each canal is oriented at right angles to the others, enabling detection of movement in any plane. The posterior canal detects rolling motion, or motion about the X axis; the anterior canal detects pitch, or motion about the Y axis; the horizontal canal detects yaw motion, or motion about the Z axis. When a medication is toxic in the vestibule or the semi-circular canals, the patient senses loss of balance or orientation rather than losses in hearing. Symptoms in these organs present as vertigo, difficulties walking in low light and darkness, disequilibrium, oscillopsia among others.[20] Each of these problems is related to balance and the mind is confused with the direction of motion or lack of motion. Both the vestibule and semi-circular canals transmit information to the brain about movement; when these are poisoned, they are unable to function properly which results in miscommunication with the brain.
When the vestibule and/or semi-circular canals are affected by ototoxicity, the eye can also be affected. Nystagmus and oscillopsia are two conditions that overlap the vestibular and ocular systems. These symptoms cause the patient to have difficulties with seeing and processing images. The body subconsciously tries to compensate for the imbalance signals being sent to the brain by trying to obtain visual cues to support the information it is receiving. This results in that dizziness and "woozy" feeling patients use to describe conditions such as oscillopsia and vertigo.[20]
The auditory/vestibulocochlear nerve, or cranial nerve VIII, is the least afflicted component of the ear when ototoxicity arises, but if the nerve is affected, the damage is most often permanent. Cranial nerve VIII "has a vestibular part which functions in balance, equilibrium, and orientation in three-dimensional space, and a cochlear part which functions in hearing."[21] Despite the vestibular or cochlear structures functioning normally, affliction of the nerve effectively arrests communication between these structures and the brain. Symptoms present similar to those resulting from vestibular and cochlear damage, including tinnitus, ringing of the ears, difficultly walking, deafness, and balance and orientation issues.[21]

"This recipe is very good. Followed the recipe to the letter, except that I reduced the salt (thought 3 teaspoons was too much) and the omitted the red chili peppers, since I did not have any-- so, It turned out a bit on the sweet side, but still good.
It's not a 5 because I found it had too many apricots and too many onions.

|6 If he has not eaten on the mountains, Nor lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, Nor defiled his neighbor's wife, Nor approached a woman during her impurity;
|6 He does not eat at the mountain shrines or look to the idols of the house of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor's wife or lie with a woman during her period.
