You can't say we weren't warned. We've known for a long time that IPv4 addresses were an endangered species.
I remember reading about the problem before the turn of the century, and Cisco Systems issued a report by Tony Hain in 2005 saying that "the remaining pool ... will be exhausted in about 5 years." So Hain was a tiny bit generous, but here we are, and now? They're gone.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before. We have the latest version of Macromedia suite on around 40 machines. It was part of a RIS image deployed to these rooms. Problems is that on random machines the student cannot create a file then save it to their home areas. But if they open a existing file they can edit it and resave it.
This happens randomly and not always on the same machine, some machines work one week then dont for the same user the next.
Any one had this problem?

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.
Posted on April 9, 2014
Tomorrow, April 10, at 6:30 p.m., the Martinsburg City Council plans to meet and address two specific changes related to its local gun control ordinances.
Thanks to the passage this year of Senate Bill 317, sponsored by state Senator John Unger (D-16), and it being signed into law by Governor Earl Ray Tomblin (D) almost two weeks ago, Martinsburg must now remedy its conflicting municipal codes.
The two areas of conflicting code are related to the now legal carry by concealed deadly weapons license (CDWL) holders in recreation facilities and buildings owned by the city but being operated by private businesses. Current Martinsburg code bans the legal carry in both of these types of facilities, but under the new law, legal carry by CDWL holders is now lawful and allowed.
The details for the city council meeting tomorrow are:
Thursday, April 10Begins at 6:30 pmJ. Oakley Seibert Council ChambersCity Hall232 North Queen StreetMartinsburg, West Virginia
Please attend this very important meeting, and let members of the city council know that you support changes to comply with SB 317. If you cannot attend, you can contact city council members by calling 304-264-2131, ext 277.

IMF approves R15bn tranche for UkraineComment on this story
Washington - The IMF's board on Friday signed off on a $1.4 billion (R15 billion) disbursement to Ukraine under its loan program, confirming Kiev was on track so far with the conditions of the bailout.
The International Monetary Fund in late April approved a $17 billion loan program for the former Soviet bloc country to shore up its depleted foreign currency reserves and support the state budget.
But it has also warned the program faces risks, as Ukraine continues to fight a pro-Russian separatist rebellion in the east. - Reuters

A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about what I thought was the worst possible emotion. There are certainly enough worthy aspirants including hate, anger, and sadness. But I felt regret was the winner (or should I say loser) because its causes can't be undone, it slowly eats away at your soul, and it can last a lifetime.
It occurred to me that, as long as I'm thinking about emotions, I would also nominate what I believe to be the best possible emotion. As with bad emotions, there are plenty of candidates: love, happiness, joy, excitement, and inspiration. But I thought, "What positive emotion underlies and allows us to experience all of those other wonderful emotions? What emotion, in its absence, prevents us from feeling good?"
And the winner of the Best Possible Emotion award goes to…Hope. Why hope?, you ask. Because I believe that it is the wellspring from which all other good emotions emerge. What is hope? It is the basic belief that good things will happen. Hope creates possibilities. Hope instills in us a sense of expectation and anticipation that what we want can come true.

Film Review: 'The Girlfriend Experience'
Date: May 27, 2009
by: Pam Nadon
There's a new trend out there for marketing films — that of simultaneous premieres across theatrical, DVD and TV platforms (i.e. pay-per-views). And Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh ("Traffic") seems to like the idea. His new film, "The Girlfriend Experience," is currently available on FiOS On Demand, and it's the first review I've done on a film that I didn't see in a movie theater.
Known for challenging convention, Soderbergh does not disappoint in this exposé about a high-class New York prostitute. Porn star Sasha Grey plays Chelsea, an expensive and sophisticated call girl who, ironically, is in a committed relationship. The film follows five days in her life, which coincide with the financial meltdown just weeks away from the 2008 election. A self-obsessed society mirrors Chelsea's ambition and desires, because topics of conversation revolve around money and power.
Grey's icy and provocative performance is so pitch-perfect, one would never guess that this is her first "legit" role (at age 21 she has starred in 161 porn films). One would expect lots of explicit sex scenes from such an actress, but rather than go there, Soderbergh chooses to focus on her character, not her deeds. And, Grey is up to the challenge when the cracks in Chelsea's strong persona begin to emerge.
"The Girlfriend Experience" is nicely packed into 77 minutes. Soderbergh employs a flashback/flashforward format, and it works well. His signature hand-held, static camerawork is slick and sleek, as always.
Interestingly, Manhattan street performers supply much of the score, which is a nice touch.
Bottom line: This is a film about money. And, as I watched it from my living room sofa, I began to think about how the theater experience may soon become obsolete, cost prohibitive. I felt somewhat guilty and sad.

Comments about Malie Organics Liquid Hand Soap, Plumeria, 16 oz:
I've tried so many liquid soaps, but there's nothing that even comes close to Malie's and I especially like the Plumeria fragrance. In the winter, this is the best for not drying my hands out. I have sensitive skin and harsher soaps can make my skin flake and even crack. I also like using a soap with natural ingredients. They are pricey, but the bottles are large and the soap is highly concentrated, so just a tiny bit will lather into enough for washing your hands.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Ortel: Buffett's Optimism Is Fool's Gold
To a limited extent, recent data on companies confirm the suspicion that demand patterns inside the U.S. are quite different than they were during the miracle boom period. Reports I have read so far concerning bellwether companies such as General Motors (GM), General Electric (GE), United Technologies (UTX), Boeing (BA), Caterpillar (CAT), Honeywell (HON), 3M (MMM), DuPont (DFT), and Alcoa (AA) are instructive.
Data in these reports support a cautious view regarding profitable growth inside America during the highly unusual period from March 2009 forward. In this recent period, central bank intervention suppressed benchmark interest rates and governments injected record amounts of fiscal stimulus into the global economy.
Excluding growth fueled by acquisitions, most of these large corporations have not been able to achieve consistent growth in U.S. revenue, U.S. pretax income and U.S. cash flow in their core manufacturing and service businesses (excluding finance).
If these hoary names could not flourish from 2009 through 2012, how will they and others do so in a more normal environment where credit growth is crimped and where benchmark interest rates rise above consumer price inflation?
Growth in Borrowing Has Fueled Recent Economic 'Progress'Let's face it -- Americans are hooked on debt. The best available statistics show that all sectors in our economy combined (households, businesses, financial institutions, and governments) have piled on borrowings ever since the conclusion of World War II. During the 68-year period from 1945 through 2012, America's debt load has climbed in 66 years or 97.1% of the time. As of December 2012, our total debt was $53,950.8 billion or 344% of America's economic output for calendar year 2012.
We must not be distracted following trends in government debt as a percentage of economic output. Instead, we must understand that each important sector within the American economy is addicted to borrowing. TABLE 2: Total Debt Compared to Gross Domestic Product and to Spending on Consumer Nondurable Goods, 1945 to 2012 We believe even these sobering statistics do not tell the complete tale. Gross domestic product is a deeply flawed jumble of estimates that likely overstates the "contribution" to productive economic behavior made by government. By 2012, total government spending grew to reach 34.4% of GDP -- estimates of the value of such spending are simply not the same as those for spending on consumer nondurable goods where there is fierce price competition.

(Updates with share repurchase in the second paragraph, revenue in the sixth, earnings outlook in eighth.)
Feb. 8 (Bloomberg) -- Visa Inc., the world's biggest payments network, said fiscal first-quarter profit climbed 16 percent as consumers increased use of credit and debit cards.
Net income for the three months ended Dec. 31 rose to $1.03 billion, or $1.49 a share, from $884 million, or $1.23, a year earlier, the San Francisco-based company said today in a statement. The average estimate of 26 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg was for earnings per share of $1.45. Visa authorized a new $500 million share repurchase program.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Joseph W. Saunders, 66, is positioning Visa for its next phase of growth after U.S. regulators capped so-called swipe fees the company charges merchants for debit-card purchases. Visa, which derived about 56 percent of revenue from the U.S. in fiscal 2011, has said it intends to generate more than half from markets abroad by 2015.
"We remain intensely focused on further growing our international business," Saunders said in the statement. "At the same time, we are moving forward on our innovation strategy."
Visa advanced 3.2 percent to $111.80 at 4:51 p.m. in extended trading in New York. The shares had gained 45 percent in the past year, the second-best performance in the 71-company Standard & Poor's 500 Information Technology Index after Purchase, New York-based MasterCard Inc., the No. 2 network, which climbed 58 percent. Shares of both companies closed at all-time highs today.
Worldwide Spending
Operating revenue was $2.55 billion, beating the average estimate of $2.47 billion by analysts in the Bloomberg survey. Worldwide spending on Visa credit and debit cards, adjusted for currency fluctuations, climbed 11 percent to $994 billion in the first quarter from a year earlier, the company said.
Cross-border volume, a measure of spending by consumers outside their home countries, surged 13 percent. Processed transactions worldwide rose 8 percent to 13.6 billion as consumers continued to shift from cash and checks to electronic payments.
Visa updated its 2012 outlook, forecasting net revenue growth in the "low teens" and earnings-per-share growth in the "high teens." The company previously expected "high single to low double-digit" revenue growth and EPS growth in the "mid to high teens," according to its fourth-quarter statement.
Mobile Phones
In December, Visa announced a plan to help develop Rwanda's payments system and connect the African nation's 11 million citizens to the global economy. The company also has rolled out prepaid accounts linked to mobile phones across Africa and the Middle East.
MasterCard said Feb. 2 that fourth-quarter profit climbed 24 percent to $514 million. The company reported 2011 profit of $1.91 billion.
MasterCard took a $495 million charge representing its portion of a potential settlement to price-fixing litigation. Merchants sued Visa, MasterCard and banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co. in 2005, claiming that the companies stifled competition by banning merchants from steering customers to cheaper forms of payment.
An accord may cost $4 billion, and last February, the defendants agreed that Visa would be responsible for two-thirds of any settlement and MasterCard would pay about one-eighth. In December, Visa said it would deposit $1.57 billion into its litigation escrow account to prepare for any settlement.

People are using up the water fast and with a lack of snow in the winter time, well, things dry up and burn down. Just look at all the fires lately.
There are a few reasons for the fires. One of them is poor forest management. BLM does a poor job clearing out dead wood after beetle infestations tear through. People protest "logging" in federally held lands. So this wood just sits, drying out. A small fire starts and you end up with Waldo Canyon or the RG or the North Fork fire. Gigantic infernos. Throw in drier then normal winters and overuse of available water resources and its not a surprise everyone has water issues.
So the ranchers in eastern colorado and the farmers on the west slope have to import water. Add in regulations on electricity or feed or fertilizer and they end up making next to nothing. But hey, we have those ugly ass wind farms going up.

The Mentalist Reaction: Simon Baker and Bruno Heller on The End Of Red Johnby Jim Halterman at . Updated at . Comments
So…there you have it. The Red John saga of The Mentalist is over.
Like, really over.
If you watched The Mentalist Season 6 Episode 8 - and if you didn't, stop reading this NOW or else you're going to be spoiled big time - you know Gale Bertram was actually NOT the man Patrick Jane has been hunting since the series premiere.
Instead, it was a character we thought died in the explosion in Jane's house in The Mentalist Season 6 Episode 6: Sheriff Thomas McAllister, played by Xander Berkeley.
In a conference call last week, creator Bruno Heller and star Simon Baker jumped on the phone with the press to talk about the end of the storyline and what we can expect moving forward on the series.
Baker, who has been inside the skin of Patrick Jane for five and a half years, said he definitely had some strong feelings going into this conclusion.
"For me, I did feel the sense of pressure because we'd been kind of working towards this for a number of years and it was something that had pushed the character from the very beginning in 2008," he said. "I just felt I've got to somehow live up to that in that one moment."
And while Jane could have killed McAllister in a number of ways, Baker explained why the manner in which it played out was the best route: "I felt like to pull a trigger is just pulling the trigger and the gun does the killing but to actually grapple with someone and kill them with your hands is far more intimate."
Heller gave Baker props for the way the final Red John scene went down.
"I should say that how that last scene between the two of them went was very much written and directed by Simon," he said. "The emotion that he brought to that and the feeling and with all that pressure and with all the story that's gone by and all the baggage…it's hard but good to watch, I think."
The executive producer, who also penned the seminal episode, commented that he didn't know exactly when the identity of Red John came to him: "It just kind of emerged over the last couple of years. There were always three or four possibilities and it just happened, really. It seemed like the natural, correct choice."
Undoubtedly, the character of Jane is going to go through some big changes now that Red John is out of his life for good. But how personal was the end of the storyline for Baker?
Said the actor: "It's been really strange because whatever happens in the course of a series, there's reasons and things that you sign on to that show for and there's very important elements to the character that you make a connection with immediately and a lot of those things were laid to rest in this episode so it did feel incredibly personal to me."
Baker added that "the challenge and the most difficult part of working on this show [has been] playing this tragic character that has a very raw and unprotected emotional side to him but has this whimsical, tap-dancery thing going on with a kind of sense of humor and bravada.
"To dance between the two tones of the show has always been very challenging for me and complicated. I get very, very protective of the personal stuff with that character so, yes, things like the tea cup and all of that and, obviously, how we kill him and all that sort of stuff, Bruno knows that I'm going to be waiting outside the door to weigh in on all that stuff."
As for that harrowing final scene where Jane takes McAllister's life with his bare hands, Baker explained: "The character had made a decision that he was going to kill Red John from the first time we ever saw him and so he made that decision and in his head that was going to happen. What we didn't know was how he was going to react and whether or not he could go through with it and in what fashion."
As an actor getting to this scene, Baker said, "to me, that was just jumping off a cliff, really, and jumping off a cliff to the point where it's like [Jane's] got what he wants and what he's wanted for so long…
"You've got to try to be there and be alive in the moment but going forward from there when you achieve your objective, then what happens? A lot of the time you focus so much energy on trying to achieve your objective but you don't really consider how it's going leave you standing afterwards. And my favorite part of that is the transition out of this. Now, okay, that's done. What do I have to live for and where do I go from here? Was it that gratifying for Jane?
"There's all of those questions and I think we sort of deal with that in a lot of ways in the next episode afterwards."
Moving forward, Heller and Baker teased what is to come on the rest of The Mentalist Season 6.
"What this fresh version of the show is about is what happens afterward in a very real sense," Heller previewd. "Jane is a happier person, a weight has been taken off his shoulders and, in that, a weight has been taken off the show. It's going to be the same show to some degree but it's going to be a show with less darkness at the edges and more freedom to roam and Jane has more freedom and more sense of possibility and liberty."
And, because we're all dying to know, when asked if Jane may now have a love life Heller would only say: "He might."
Are you excited to see what's coming next on The Mentalist? Or do you think the show is going to miss having Red John drive so much story?
The Mentalist airs at 10/9c every Sunday on CBS.

Please excuse the jumping back and forth in past and present tenses. Tried to edit but it doesn't work for me.
I don't know who chooses where to start the new board discussions, but the interview with Simon Baker and Bruno Heller was so interesting that I thought I would put my two cents in here. Somehow, even though Patrick has said from the beginning that he would be seeking revenge by killing RJ, I thought that day would never come. He tells Lisbon....."that day is here". The scene where he finally does in RJ was so tense and emotional, it made me cry and I was snuffling for a while afterwards. The tears came from the sadness I felt for him. Baker's performance was incredible; there were so many emotions shown on his face. The suspension of disbelief was in full effect. That man has a gift. As for RJ.....when this show was created in the mind of Bruno Heller,
I would wage that he would never have suspected a run of six years and an audience who would become so totally involved with the theories and details of these characters. For myself, it has always been about Patrick. Until lately, I didn't pay a lot of attention to the RJ character.
I would keep coming back to what Heller said early on. When he is revealed, people would be disappointed. He is just a man. I am wondering if he really didn't know exactly how to do it and that the Tyger Tyger Blake group provided the way. So there are holes and unanswered questions.....as in life you have to decide whether to move on or stay in the rut and be miserable. I'm moving on. I will watch it until the very last episode. As much as I want Lisbon and Patrick to wind up together, I have to remember that they are both damaged characters. It will be interesting to see if they unravel some of their hang ups. They both had rotten young lives. They both have done things in their adult lives they should not have done. I guess a few doses of mental health care might be in order. That's it for me. Looking forward to your thoughts.

Recently in Emotional Rants Category
My life is quite chaotic right now and a little bit out of control. By the way, I do know how to minimize!
As a system, "I" am cognizant of the fact that there is an extremely delicate balance between all the facets of my life. We cannot be too much in any one area for any protracted period of time. We all know that inside even though many of us will deny it if asked outright. This balance is crucial for my internal life as well as external life. On Thursday, hopefully, I'll write more about this from a neuroscience perspective. But now I'll focus on what my experiences have been lately.
Balance is what all of us strive for, whether dissociative or not. But there are extra challenges for those of us who dissociate, and as a general rule, the more dissociative we are, the more difficulty we have finding that balance. While there is certainly a concept of a dissociative continuum, and normal dissociation for "normal people", there is without question a different scale for some of us.
Another way of looking at the problem from an astronomical analogy is that most people stay within the context of their own psychological solar system. For the dissociative, we can be in the solar system, in the galaxy, in the Universe, in some parallel Universe, in a singularity point, or in any combination of the above, at any timescale.
For me, lately, I am experiencing more of the extremes of dissociation, where it's difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish between reality and fantasy, between present and past, between safety and danger, and even to know who I am and what "me" means.
Yesterday, I was not that in touch and already somewhat unstable inside. Yet, I was able to shift things to be what I needed to be. I volunteered at my daughter's school, helped my wife fix her computer at work, got some work chores done, cleaned the bathrooms, told my daughter an awesome story about fairies, and more. But there was something missing. I was able to be functional in all those ways at the expense of loss of control. I have been oscillating between extremes and this is not sustainable.
Not only have I been functional over the past week (or longer), I have had some really amazing experiences. I was in the "zone" for a newspaper photography shoot of a parade. I freed myself from the usual "thinking" associated with playing piano and created some wonderful recordings. I was able to teach my daughter, who is somewhat new to the violin, how to improvise, create and feel music. This was an "Aha!" moment for her and it was so gratifying for me. These are examples of how dissociation can be a very wonderful gift and "healthy".
But there has been too much else going on and too many external and internal triggers. I know that parts have freaked out at night and sought out my wife (minutes or hours after some of these great experiences). I nearly lost my daughter at a hockey game (also minutes after a great experience). And I was unable to keep myself safe today. Plus, I am having an onslaught of memories and nightmares I cannot even remember.
This is not unknown territory for me. I've been struggling with a dissociative disorder for a long time, and have been diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder since back in the early 90s. Many of the feelings and experiences now are quite similar to back then. But what makes the present different is that I try as best I can to pay attention to what's going on and document everything I can. That effort is usually what makes the difference and keeps me safe.
Right now, that effort to document is keeping me out of the hospital and allowing me to "make sense of nonsense" or at least document the nonsense. I have kept a private electronic journal for the past 16 months, and I write at an average clip of 30,000 words a month. I'm usually around a computer and can write to it whenever I need to. As a bit of an aside, about a month ago, I wrote a handy little script for my iPhone that allows me to be virtually anywhere and write to the journal (as long as I have a 3G or Edge ssh connection). As I've written before, I use the journal (as well as this blog) to help me track of my crazy life and learn from the range of experiences I have. It's certainly not a linear healing process, but it absolutely does help.
One post to my journal stands out. At 3:43 pm yesterday I wrote: "I also think something very bad happened inside just a little while ago. But I don't seem to know about it now. It was purely an inside thing." This, I think, had nothing at all to do with planning to be hurt or anything like that. It was just a knowing that something happened inside and I documented it as soon as possible. I cannot explain it. If I didn't take such care to document, these awarenesses would probably be lost in the noise.
But, despite the documentation, I still have been unable to guarantee my safety. And I am not stable internally to the degree I need to be. I believe some of the functional stuff and good experiences and successes threw me off a bit. I kept using those as signs of hope that things would change. I really cannot assess the chances of things changing and becoming more stable if I keep going without some sort of intervention.
The reason why I am on the fence about going into the hospital is because of those successes and good experiences. The hospital removes that. The other times I have been to the hospital, as far as I can remember, were because of complete loss of functionality. That has not happened now. I am wondering if I can build in safety more explicitly and tell my wife and boss that I need to be home for the time being. My wife already knows that I have not been well. She can tell. She has told me she knows this. She doesn't know how to act about the eating, whether to be happy or upset about my weight loss. She doesn't know how to react to parts flipping out at night and then me being completely functional and on the ball in the morning. I acted incredulous with her about it, because when she brought it up that she knows I've been having a hard time, I was in a completely different state.
I want to see how this explicit safety plan goes. If I cannot make it work, and home falls apart and everything breaks down, then I will know I need to be in the hospital. I am not there yet though. For now, I will push ahead, keep documenting, and trying to make sense of the "nonsense" and hope that I take a trip back to our solar system and stay there for a while.
I have written about many of these issues in the past. One advantage to the blog is that it distills a lot of the things I write about in my private journal. It's important for me to know what happens moment to moment, day to day. But it's equally important to know how those experiences fit into the larger picture. The blog serves that purpose. So, while I am glad that people read the blog, it truly is more for me than for anyone else. My apologies for being so selfish!
I'm so discouraged. The last post sounds like it was written by someone who has no concept of how hard things really are. It sounds like it was written by an academic who understands the theory, but lives in an "Ivory Tower".
The reality is that the theory is not anywhere close to the whole story. But, as I look back on this blog, I cannot help but get the sense that it's very much focussed on theory, lecturing, and intellectual understanding. I never make a post about anything personally difficult, unless it's framed in that way. This means nothing is written "off the cuff" and nothing comes from an intensely personal and emotional space.
That is not where I am right now. So, this post will be different from all the rest.
Right now I don't see the hope.
Right now I want to give up.
Right now I feel sick, bad, dirty, disgusting, evil, worthless, stupid, and foolish. And, out of control.
I've made such a huge effort over the past couple years to control everything, thinking I know so much. My "control everything" strategy is foolhardy. I should be finding a way to listen and communicate. I should allow parts to have a say. But I don't do that, except on rare occasions.
In fact, I am really in the dark on some of the major issues that face me. I know so little about "all of me", yet talk a good game and pretend that I really do.
I don't understand how anything really works. This site may sound like I do a lot of "accepting". But, in reality, I am more often thinking I'm a liar and a fake. I doubt parts me. I want them gone! I doubt any abuse. I think I'm just some pervert making it up.
This all came to a head because I had a part that was destructive and self-harming. He got on board eventually and knew he couldn't be self-harming.
And what happens? There's another part that I barely know that basically took his place. Except now, it's worse! What this part wants to do is more harming than what the other part wanted to do.
I feel so stupid. I just want to give up.
Maybe this is really something that I cannot solve. That I cannot heal from. So, what's the fucking use of trying?
"Emotional Rants" posts have comments disabled because they aren't meant for group discussion. If you want to contact me offline, that's fine and appreciated. That feels safer to me. Thanks for understanding.

There is a big difference in the options of a food processor and a blender. To tell you the truth I'm not giving mine for anything, it made my life much more easier in the kitchen - it can make rough chucks, it can blend smoothly, can chop, grate, makes citrus juice, mixes dough and more...
explore your options :)
love my food processor..
i've got everything in the kitchen and find that the food processor does so much that a blender doesn't.. i.e homemade nut butters, doughs, mass grating, finely slicing.. ahh, i'm in love :)
I basically use my food processor for hummus, pesto, "carrot dip" which contains roasted red peppers, garlic, pine nuts, a little bit of tomato paste a smidge of oregano, salt, pepper, and maybe some olive oil to thin. I also use them for blending herbs or onions/shallots into things like herbed butter or chevre filling for lasagne.

Health Canada Approves New Drug Submission For Cinryze™ (C1 Inhibitor [human])
EXTON, Pa., Oct. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ViroPharma Incorporated (NASDAQ: VPHM) today announced that Health Canada has granted a Notice of Compliance (NOC) and approved a New Drug Submission (NDS) for Cinryze ™ (C1 inhibitor [human]). Approval of Cinryze was granted for routine prevention of angioedema attacks in adult and adolescents with hereditary angioedema (HAE). Until now, there have been no approved plasma derived C1 inhibitor therapies for routine prevention of HAE attacks in Canada. ViroPharma's Canadian headquarters are located in Oakville, Ontario. We anticipate Cinryze to be commercially available in Canada as early as the second quarter of 2013.
"Hereditary angioedema is a complex and life threatening disease that must be managed carefully by physicians," said Dr. Tom Bowen, clinical professor of medicine and pediatrics at the University of Calgary. "The approval of Cinryze to help prevent HAE attacks provides an essential addition to the patient care arsenal of physicians across Canada. Disease management options that provide choices for patients for both treatment and prevention of hereditary angioedema can help patients reach their own personal health and wellness goals."
"It is important to have a number of disease management options available for those living with hereditary angioedema," said Della Cogar, founder, HAE Canada. "Hereditary angioedema is a potentially fatal disease that affects patients and their families throughout their lives, and is often passed on from generation to generation. This important addition of Cinryze as the first and only approved preventative option for patients with HAE is wonderful news for families living with the disease, and the physicians who help them manage it."
HAE is a rare, debilitating and potentially life-threatening genetic disorder estimated to affect up to 3,400 people across Canada. HAE is a variable disease, and patients can experience unpredictable, recurrent and disabling attacks of swelling that can affect the upper airway, abdomen, face, extremities and urogenital tract due to a deficiency of C1 inhibitor, a human plasma protein that prevents swelling."The approval of Cinryze by Health Canada marks an important milestone for ViroPharma, and more importantly, for people living with HAE in Canada," said Pamela di Cenzo, ViroPharma's general manager, Canada. "We are thrilled to bring a new medication to the Canadian market that can prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema for patients suffering with this debilitating disease." About CinryzeCinryze is a highly purified, pasteurized and nanofiltered plasma-derived C1 esterase inhibitor product. In the U.S. and Canada, Cinryze is approved for routine prophylaxis (prevention) against angioedema attacks in adolescent and adult patients with HAE. In the EU, the product is approved for the treatment and pre-procedure prevention of angioedema attacks in adults and adolescents with hereditary angioedema (HAE), and routine prevention of angioedema attacks in adults and adolescents with severe and recurrent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE), who are intolerant to or insufficiently protected by oral prevention treatments or patients who are inadequately managed with repeated acute treatment. Cinryze is for intravenous use only. Severe hypersensitivity reactions to Cinryze may occur. Thrombotic events have occurred in patients receiving Cinryze, and in patients receiving off-label high dose C1 inhibitor therapy. Monitor patients with known risk factors for thrombotic events. With any blood or plasma derived product, there may be a risk of transmission of infectious agents, e.g. viruses and, theoretically, the CJD agent. The risk has been reduced by screening donors for prior exposure to certain virus infections and by manufacturing steps to reduce the risk of viral transmission including pasteurization and nanofiltration.

The Obama administration's top counter-terrorism official says authorities want to look more closely at the September crash of a UPS freighter in Dubai, although investigators in the Middle East say it is unlikely the plane was brought down by a bomb.
The United Arab Emirates' General Civil Aviation Authority issued a statement Sunday saying the agency "thoroughly analyzed the technical data" from the crashed 747 and concluded there was no evidence "supporting the detonation of an explosive device."
The UPS 747-400 crashed while trying to return to the Dubai airport Sept. 3 after a fire that apparently broke out in the main cargo hold filled the cockpit with smoke, obscuring the pilots' vision. The two crewmembers died in the crash.
UPS was one of the operators that apparently carried sophisticated bombs disguised in printer cartridges that were shipped through air express networks from Yemen last week.
John Brennan, the White House assistant to the president for homeland security, told CNN on Sunday that the September crash now is drawing new scrutiny.
"The crash of the one plane off of Dubai, we are looking very carefully at that," Brennan said in the televised interview. Investigators are "working with the (National Transportation Safety Board) and others to make sure that we understand the cause of that crash. And so right now we're making sure that we look at possible other events or other developments that might have some relationship with the most recent packages that we've discovered."
The NTSB is not the primary investigating agency for the Dubai crash but its experts work with other agencies around the world to assist investigations of crashes involving U.S.-built aircraft such as the Boeing 747.
An NTSB spokesman said the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder from the downed UPS plane had been brought to Washington and that the agency had assisted UAE investigators in reading the recorders.

Bleed Cubbie Blue: Part 8
Phase 6: Maintaining the scouting and development machine:
The Cubs are going to have one more top five pick coming in 2015. Next season it is likely that the Cubs won't be complete basement dwellers. They will add a pitcher in the off season and slot Arrieta into the number 2 position. The young guns will start to progress and the potential for a .500 showing is real. (given some positive variables)
You aren't going to get top picks in the first year player draft every year. Eventually you have to draft with quantity in mind. There are no Kris Bryant's available at pick 18. You have to be wise with your selections and value projection and make up. Tools play, but makeup plays harder.
In my opinion, the best way to supplement your farm system on a consistent and long term basis is to do so in the international market. Not only are the players just as talented, they are often young enough that you can coach up their tools from the very beginning. Imagine if you were 16 and you got to play baseball every day with some of the best coaches in the world. It does wonders. There's a reason that some companies want to train their employees rather than hire with experience. It allows the organization to teach the players how to play the game their way, which is invaluable in this day and age of sabermetrics.
When the Wrigley renovation and new TV deal are completed, and the big 8 prospects have made their presence known, the 6th phase of the rebuild will begin. Revenues will be at an all time high and payroll additions will always be an option. What does it take to field a consistent contender?
You have to face the realities that hit us all when we age. Sometimes you have to make tough choices and let players walk. Don't over pay for a player just to squeeze one more potential winning season out of a crippled roster. Let the player walk. We aren't in Philladelphia. You can let Chase Utley go. The Cubs are an anomaly and I promise you attendance figures won't go down for long.
Trust your player development to compensate. Let the player sign a crazy long term deal with another team and replace his production systematically. To paraphrase Moneyball,
"I'm not going to replace Jason Giambi by simply signing a first basemen. I'm going to make systematic upgrades throughout the roster to compensate for the production lost."

Dina Manfredini, 115, Now World's Oldest Person (VIDEO)
Posted: Updated:
JOHNSTON, Iowa -- A 115-year-old woman in Iowa has become the world's oldest living person.
Guinness World Records posted on its website Wednesday that Dina Manfredini of Johnston has inherited the title after Bessie Cooper of Georgia died Tuesday. Cooper was 116.
Guinness officials provided few details about the latest record holder. Manfredini was born on April 4, 1897, in Italy. She moved to the United States in 1920.
Manfredini currently lives at the Bishop Drumm Retirement Center in Johnston, just north of Des Moines.
A message left for Manfredini and her family was not immediately returned Wednesday.
