I'm being referred to a Rheumatologist . . .
2 Attachment(s)
I'm coming to my JBs because you all are so darned smart and well-read! Have any of you had experience with rheumatoid arthritis, or any other types of systemic arthritis?
It's early yet, as I don't have a diagnosis, and it may be nothing at all, but I was referred on Friday to a Rheumatologist. I don't have my appointment yet.
Back story: A few weeks ago I had a minor papercut. It was fine for a few days, then I experienced swelling and redness. I gave it a week or so, treating for infection at home, but nothing helped. I went to my GP, and he said it looked infected too, but ran bloodwork for arthritis and gout as well (I do have the condition which causes gout, but mine presents with kidney stones). By the time I saw the doctor, I had a similar inflammation on my right pinky (see pictures), but had not cut myself there.
My GP prescribed antibiotics and I took the whole round with no improvement. On Thursday night, the other two fingers were worse than they were when I saw the doctor about a week and a half prior. Then, Friday morning, I also noticed the same thing happening to my right middle finger. So I went back to the doctor, he reviewed my bloodwork and told me everything was perfect. Now he's sending me to the specialist because he has no idea what's going on.
I'm fine, I feel great other than these silly fingers, but just thought you all might have suggestions or references for me to check out. Oh, one other thing; I have mild Psoriasis and I also was wondering about Psoriatic Arthritis, since it's not presenting in a symmetrical fashion.
TIA, best BUDDDs!
ETA: The pictures don't really do it justice. They are both hard and the ring finger is so swollen I can't bend my finger (it's also a weird mottled purplish color now). The new one, on my right middle finger is on the palm side and like a hard bubble, similar to a ganglion cyst.
ouch! I have no helpful knowledge, but just want to say I'm sorry about it and hope they figure it out soon!
Lordy, Girl! I can't imagine what this could be. My ex had rheumatoid arthritis, but never anything that looked like that. I'll be glad when the rheumatologist can see those fingers and see if s/he can identify the problem.
The only reason I was referred to my rheumatologist was when he diagnosed (finally) why I had so much pain, which was fibromyalgia. And I have plain old osteoarthritis, which runs in my family anyway, so I always expected I would get it like daddy and his mother did.
That even looks sore in the pictures. HOW SOON is your appointment with the specialist???
Dawn, You have the prettiest nails that I have seen in a while. Mine are short and well, not so pretty. :o
I am concerned that there is a possibility that you could have psoriasis or rheumotoid arthritis? Does this run in your family? My father had Psoriatic Arthritis and his aunt had quite a case of rheumotoid arthritis that I have ever known.
I am so sorry you are experiencing this. It looks very painful and I hope you find out what it is and can get relief.
I was diagnosed with RA over 15 years ago but never had fingers that looked like that. I had DNA testing done also to see if I had the worst variety which I do not. If I control my diet, I have no symptoms but it took awhile to figure out what kind of set it off. Rarely have an episode anymore.
My fingers hurt just looking at your pictures. Hugs.
My father had very emphasized white scaley elbows and knuckles. Just thought I would share, because I am thinking this is NOT what you have. :aprayer:
Sorry you are going through this, Dawn. Hope it clears up soon! :hugs:
Are you in pain? How much, ona scale of 1-10
If yes for pain, how long does it last?
Have you had x-rays?
Are the bumps nodules? Hard cysts? Malleable cysts?
I am not a doctor, but that looks more like the start of cellulitis to me. Psoriasis can make you more prone to cellulitis also. The antibotics they gave might not have been strong enough and you were a bit resistant. They usually give cephalexin for it, which is just a wick, wick drug...but works.
My client just had cellulitis a few months back, and I know I had to fight his GP about it. He said it was his brace rubbing. I said no it wasnt (I was marking the spreading red area with a marker). They ran blood work, I was right.
I would make the appointment, and see what the Rheumatologist says. But I would ask about his thoughts on Cellulitis too, only because left untreated can lead to MRSA which is something you really dont want to deal with!! Cellulitis is a bacterial thing, and spreads in your blood, which is why it could of popped up in your other hand also. Just my thoughts!
Not one of the expert JUDDD buds here but could it be your gout flaring up in your fingers? DH has gout and it might look like that if it was in his fingers instead of toe joints. You do have beautiful hands, wish my nails would grow out like yours. Hope the issue clears up quickly and you find the cause. Doesn't rheumatoid arthritis show up in the exact same joint on both sides? :dunno:
Wondering about the infected paper cut......Hopefully, the specialist appt is soon otherwise I'd ask for a redo on the labs since something might show up now that didn't previously.
ACK! that looks like owies to me! (((HUGS))) Hope you get answers soon!
Good Lord, that looks painful!! :console: My Mother has rheumatoid arthritis & I've not seen anything that looks like that. Her fingers are so crooked from years of sewing & quilting. My son has gout; but, his is in his feet & ankles. I've not seen him when he has a flare up tho. So I can't say what it looks like.
I hope you get some answers soon! Sorry I couldn't help.
A second vote for Cellulitis, my son had it a few years ago, and when he gets run down it appears in a lesser form. His is on his face
His seemed to be caused by a small cut also. As said needs to be kept an eye on as it turns in to other things.
This is new territory for me, but I did some research and add my voice to Katiebubb's. I think her suggestions are a most excellent path to take - ASAP. If you are not scheduled to see the Rheumatologist for a long time (and we are talking days, not weeks) go talk to your doctor about Cellulitis.
I also add my cheers to the 'Dawn, you have gorgeous fingernails and your hands are as beautiful as you are!!!!" club.
Dawn, I have no experience of cellulitis but I do know that gout affects toes in that way. If it's "only" gout, it's easy to sort with diet.
I hope you soon get it diagnosed and sorted.
Good on your GP for the referral. It is worth looking at non-rheumatoid variants, particularly with the details of this incident and your psoriatic history. Many, many of these resolve on their own - good to keep your thoughts aimed in this direction - but further testing is smart. You'll know if any rapid progression - local or systemic - warrants emergency care. Just my two cents. All the best. :):heart:
I have constant pain, but it's minor. More of an annoyance most of the time. Sometimes it hurts significantly more and I feel like I could cry. That's a 10 for me, and lasts maybe 10-20 minutes a few times a day, but mostly it's at a 4 or 5. I have not had xrays yet. The two bumps on my right hand are both round. One is hard and set, the other feels malleable. The left ring finger is just a big old swollen mess. It's hard, but not bony hard. It's swollen enough that the skin is stretched tight.
My grandmother had arthritis, but I never thought to ask what type. Her hands were very gnarled. I don't have a "known" history of rheumatoid arthritis, but I have a couple of other autoimmune conditions, so I am concerned about it, especially if my grandmother did have it.
As for the gout, that was honestly my first thought, since I have an excess of uric acid. My labs came back great, but I'm also not ruling that out.
I have not heard back with an appointment date yet, so I will be hounding the doctor tomorrow.
Thank you all so much for your replies. I knew my JBs would have ideas!!
Dawn, I agree with everyone that you have beautiful hands. :) Even swollen. :D You've gotten a lot of good advice, especially from Katie about the cellulitis. The only other thing I can think of is staph. That doesn't seem likely since it is now affecting your other hand, but could the infection have spread? I'm no doctor, but I play one on the internet.;)
hey,'im a medical student (still a few years to graduation yet tho!) and like you said with your history of autoimmune diseases, it does make you more prone to others such as RA. Luckily RA has become a lot more managable in recent years with drug therapy. From the pictures i cant tell either way what it is tho. Hope all ends up ok!
Lurker here... My husband had gout and RA and suffered terribly for many years. Over the long term, with gout, you get tophi. Tophi look like white blobs under the skin around joints. They
can become pretty large. He had one that was almost the size of a ping pong ball on one elbow (that had been injured in a car accident and the tophi built up in the ruptured bursa sack). I think they are uric acid deposits that build up over time (need to google that). There are meds to take while you are in the acute phase of gout that will get it under control. They are usually of the anti-inflammatory type. I think the one my husband took was called probenemid. Harsh on your stomache to say the least. There is also a medication they prescribe to keep it under control if you have constant flare ups with it, I think that was called allopurinol.
I hope you get an appointment soon and find out what it is. I know what misery both RA and gout can cause and wouldn't wish it on anyone.
Dawn, I have psoriatic arthritis which is systemic like RA. I never had anything like that, but DW had cellulitis after a small cut and she ended up being hospitalized for 5 days after letting it go. Please call the doctor back tomorrow! Please feel better soon.
I hope you find out what is wrong! Its miserable until you know for sure!
Hope you get sorted out soon - looks painful! I had cellulitis last year on my leg and looked quite similar - very red, swollen and painful. Definitely agree that it is good to rule it out since it can suddenly get worst. I felt very sick for a few days.
Good luck!
I have nothing to compare it to anyone I know.
Does look sore!
I'm sure u've done the first aid route.
Haven't changed hand soap-dish soap- lotions?
Even laundry soap. We r always touching cloth.
Same as for at the work place. Change in anything ur touching??
So glad u got the Anti B running in your system fast.
Even getting those 100% white Cotton- light weight gloves.
U've seen them in the medicine area at Walkys or Walgreens maybe.
BEST wishes in fingering this out FAST!
Cellulitis can land you in the hospital...there's also staph.
I am an RN and do not freak out about stuff and tend to treat at home, if possible, but in your case, I'd be paying close attention.
If the course continues, you should go to urgent care or the ER.
If the paper cut or any skin breakdown has occurred, they can culture.
They will also have seen more than a doctor's office and may recognise it immediately especially if they know it started from a cut......that alone should make them take notice.
I know it's different for you since you do have a functioning lymph, but as one of the posters mentioned, since you do have that history of AI disease, I would think that also puts you at higher risk for infections involving the lymphatic system - a big part of the immune system.
I think it looks like cellulitis. The lymphedema specialist told me that if that happened to me, I had to seek help within 24hours and mostly at the ER cuz a lymphatic infection can take over very quickly! She said cellulitis is a very bad infection and lands people in the hospital on IV antis all the time.
Since it is spreading to the adjacent finger, I would surely look at going to the ER. The only thing that is puzzling is the occurrence of it on the opposite hand which is a separate lymph region, although still connected.
It would be a very little inconvenience and cost of peace of mind. Don't just go to a minor emergency room either. You need people who KNOW what they are looking at and that only happens with busy ER rooms with good hospital labs behind them.
:hugs: and sorry to scare.
:console: I hope it's nothing serious and is resolved quickly.:heart:
Two years ago, I had something that looked very similar, but on several toes.
It was MRSA cellulitis, probably from an abrasion on one toe that became infected and then spread (MRSA is very contagious). I'm intolerant to most oral antibiotics, so I was given topical Bactroban. It cleared within a week.
I'm in agreement with Jem -- if no improvement (soon), I'd seek out another opinion. It may need to be cultured and have sensitivities run on it.

My arm muscles are getting STRONGER, HARDER, smaller... WTF?!! Was it just fat in muscle? Maybe I am more fast twitch?
So I am on a deficit, and have been for a long time. I had a lot of fat to loose. I plan to stop cutting come July when I should hit about 8% bf. Right now I am at 10% (not exaggerated). I can finally clearly see my 6 pack without flexing. This is down from 30% bf in December 2009.
I want to cycle between 6-8 after cutting and 10-12 after bulking.
Honestly though, I can do weighted dips 5 sets of 5 at 290 lbs (weighing myself and adding a dumbbell between my legs). I use a 501 tempo and go deep with good form. That is up from from 245 last month. Gains like this are pretty much there in all lifts.
Note: my protien grams are around 1.25 per lb of body weight each day. And my recovery is good.

so i love playing malzahar. hes a effing beast. either i midlane and eff everything over for the opponent or i bot and get kills/assist for first blood.
unfortunately im not as good at last hitting. yea ill get them, but not as fast as others. and so my item build is always a bit behind. near end game its not a problem wen i get avg 600ap+ enuf Mpen to take down anyone from full hp.
my problem is that during midgame wen i hav substandard or even standard items im forced to lane and harass w my Q n E while waiting for my ult to recharge. this seems like a uber amount of time to waste.
should i be doing anything other than slinging my Q/E at champs during ult CD?
and i could use some advice to making him less... squishy (ie *drop entire nuke during a 3v3 and then the rest of their team comes running out to take me down*)... preferably in item builds.
Junior Member
I'm not very clear on what you're asking. You want to know what to do when you're ult is on CD and you can't gank during laning phase? Last hit.... That's all there is to it. I don't care if you're bad at it - get good. You will never get better if you don't try. It only takes about 2 waves of minions to get as much gold as you would for a champion kill, and it's guaranteed.
well there was two aprts
1) im just throwing my Q and E around while waiting for my ult to cd, should i be doing anything else?
2) item builds for un-squishy/less squishy malzahar
Game is about FARMING and PUSHING.
Seriously, if you can't score a kill, it means you're taking down a turret or farming up like a boss. Kills are extras to make the game easier. It doesn't matter if the games 40-0 in your favor, if they take out your freaking nexus, you lose.
woah chill. jeez. ive had games where i went 19/3/6 or somthing like that. i just wanted to kno if theres anything i can do to improve, or should i just play him routinely
Slurp the Dlurp
what i do while my ult is on cd is farm with q/e and if someone tries to attack me ill throw my aoe down and let em stand in it and then they realize they are taking crazy damage and run away like a nub then i go back to farming

Quotes & Highlights
Check out Goldstar member reviews for Streep Tease during its bang.studio run.
Rave reviews across the board from theater critics & theater goers alike have greeted Streep Tease since its inception. During its year and a half sold out run at the Bang Improv Theater and a special engagement in New York City at Joe's Pub at The Public Theater, Streep Tease has received critical acclaim from the LA Times, the LA Weekly and Daily Variety. Original and outrageously funny to the delight of audiences in LA & NYC, the show has developed a life of its own. "With the release of Meryl Streep's latest film The Iron Lady in which she portrays Britain's former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, we have been given a wealth of new riches, providing fresh new material and inspiration for the show," says Cruz. "Over the last few months, I've been deluged by requests from the show's fans as well as friends and professionals in the industry to keep the show running."
An homage to one of our most popular and enduring actresses, Meryl Streep's prodigious body of film work serves as the inspiration and fascination for Streep Tease, an all-male cast's re-interpretation of some of the revered actresses' most iconic scenes. In addition to The Iron Lady, included are monologues from The Devil Wears Prada, Out of Africa, Silkwood, The French Lieutenant's Woman, Doubt, and The Still of the Night, among others. Though drawn from the dramatic and comedic 'Canon of Cinema Streep,' all of the scenes evolve into a hilarious, outlandish, kooky and sometimes campy romp through Streep's film repertoire.

Thanks! I am in the process of making it now. I have read other recipes and they always say it has to be sealed for at least 30 days or so but I think they were mostly homemade wine recipes so maybe that is why you need to let them set for so long. Thanks again!

@ Cristy....I've made this numerous times, and you can drink it right away if you want. I've just found that the longer it sits, the better the flavor and potency.

Nothing to Sneeze At
For decades, people with allergy-related conditions have been rolling up a sleeve once a week at the doctor's office to receive injections of allergens.
Now Sandra Lin, a specialist in sinusitis and allergy here, is offering an alternative treatment that eschews injections altogether. Known as sublingual immunotherapy, the approach involves a daily regimen of placing a few drops of an allergen solution under the tongue and holding it there for several minutes. The potion, a custom blend of extracts proven through allergy skin testing to cause reactions, is given in consecutively stronger doses for about four months and then levels off. As with injections, it must be taken for three to five years in order to maximize long-lasting effects.
"Sublingual immunotherapy has been shown to improve allergy symptoms, decrease the need for medicine, decrease asthma attacks, and decrease the chance of developing asthma in allergic children. And because patients can take it at home, they should be more compliant," Lin says. The approach could expand access to those in rural areas, and make treating children (typically terrified of allergy shots) easier, she adds.
Widely used in Europe and endorsed by the World Health Organization, sublingual immunotherapy is not now prevalent in the United States (in part because it is not covered by insurance), nor is it approved by the FDA. What's needed to clear that hurdle and make the approach available to millions of allergy sufferers: more research to define its molecular and cellular mechanisms, and clinical trials to determine ideal dosing strength and schedule.

Why Acupuncture Works for Anxiety Relief – Everyday Health
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Acupuncture on December 3, 2014
This article summarizes a few of the studies dealing with acupuncture and anxiety.
How does it work? Led by Eshkevari, researchers at Georgetown University used lab studies to demonstrate that acupuncture slows the body's production of stress hormones. Their findings were published in the April 2013 issue of the Journal of Endocrinology.

Acupuncture Anti-Inflammatory Effect Revealed
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Acupuncture on December 1, 2014
Researchers have quantified mechanisms by which acupuncture exerts anti-inflammatory and pain reducing medical benefits. A new laboratory experiment proves that true electroacupuncture and not sham acupuncture causes biological reactions responsible for eliminating pain and inflammation. Researchers discovered that acupuncture inhibits ERK1/2-COX-2 pathway activation and ERK1/2-CREB-NK-1 pathway activation. Let's take a look at why these biochemical pathways are so vitally important to pain management…

Nature group walks linked to improved mental health
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in General Health & Fitness, Healthy Habits, Weight Loss on September 24, 2014
A new study links group nature walks with significantly lower depression and perceived stress.
Group nature walks are linked with significantly lower depression, less perceived stress and enhanced mental health and well-being, according to the study conducted by the University of Michigan… People who had recently experienced stressful life events like a serious illness, death of a loved one, marital separation or unemployment especially saw a mood boost after outdoor group walks.
The study surveyed members of the U.K.-based group Walking for Health. Closer to home, a quick search of Meetup.com turned up more than 100 walking groups in the bay area – take a look! With the warm weather we've been having, now is a great time to get outside.
Killing Your Sex Drive One Bite at a Time: 5 Surprising Ways Sugar Lowers Libido – Dr. Mark Hyman
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, Chinese Medicine, Healthy Eating, Qi on September 9, 2014
This is an excellent article from Dr. Mark Hyman on how sugar lowers your sex drive. He goes over how sugar has a dramatic effect on your hormones and goes on to say:
Rebalancing these hormones could be as simple as what you put on your fork. Food is information that controls your gene expression, hormones, and metabolism.

In Chinese medicine, sex drive is mainly related to three organ systems: the Kidneys, the Liver, and the Stomach.
The Stomach system has to do with overall fitness and the condition of your muscles and flesh. Exercise and increased muscle tone have a salutary effect on your overall health and help maintain arousal.
The Liver system has to do with circulation. Arousal of course increases blood flow to the sex organs, and if your circulation is not good, it may be difficult to become aroused. Exercise and acupuncture are two of the best things one can do to increase and maintain good circulation.
The Kidney system is the most important for sexual health. According to Chinese medicine principles, the kidneys store your basic sexual energy. Low kidney energy means low sexual energy. Herbs are the best means of replenishing low or exhausted kidneys. People make a lot of jokes about exotic substances like rhino horn and tiger penis, but the fact is there are many natural plant materials that increase sexual energy.
If you'd like to maintain or increase your sex drive in a natural and healthy way, start by eating healthy and getting more exercise. Then come see me for a consultation and we'll figure out the best plan for you, whether it's acupuncture, herbs, or some combination of the two.
AARP suggests acupuncture before back surgery
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Acupuncture on August 30, 2014
The American Association of Retired Persons has a slideshow on their website about four surgeries to avoid. As the intro says: "The four operations discussed on the following pages are often overperformed. Some are moneymakers for doctors and hospitals; others are expedient and still others seem to work, at least in the short term. But evidence shows that all have questionable long-term outcomes for treating certain conditions, and some may even cause harm. Consider these alternatives."
In particular it mentions acupuncture as an alternative for back surgery. Take a look.
Feds jail ginseng poacher as wild plants face risk – Associated Press
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Chinese Herbs on August 30, 2014
Interesting story from the great wild ginseng-growing region of the United States.
Say "American ginseng" and many people will think of Wisconsin. But Wisconsin is known for its cultivated roots. They have large scale farming operations and produce many tons of ginseng each year. The ginseng from Wisconsin is pretty good, but cultivated roots are generally larger, straighter, and less potent.
Wild ginseng, on the other hand, is scarce, hard to find. When you do find it, the roots are much smaller, more gnarled and bent, having had to fight for their existence on the forest floor. They are generally much more potent than cultivated roots and correspondingly more expensive. This quote from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll sums it up:
'How is it you can all talk so nicely?' Alice said, hoping to get it into a better temper by a compliment. 'I've been in many gardens before, but none of the flowers could talk.'
'Put your hand down, and feel the ground,' said the Tiger-lily. 'Then you'll know why.
Alice did so. 'It's very hard,' she said, 'but I don't see what that has to do with it.'
'In most gardens,' the Tiger-lily said, 'they make the beds too soft — so that the flowers are always asleep.'
This sounded a very good reason, and Alice was quite pleased to know it. 'I never thought of that before!' she said.
There are other gradation of ginseng, including half-cultivated/half-wild, where the plants are sprouted and nurtured in a nursery before transplanting to their native environment on a mountainous forest floor. From there they are left to themselves for 3-7 years. My understanding is that the plants are not cared for in any way once they have been transplanted. Many will die, but the ones that survive will be extremely potent.
The Needle and the Feather – An Acupuncture Analogy by Matt Bauer
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine on August 14, 2014
Today I'd like to share something written by a colleague, Matthew Bauer L.Ac. Matt is an acupuncturist who has been in practice for many years and has spent a lot of time figuring out the best way to educate people on how acupuncture works, and why it works the way it does. Take a look and let me know what you think.
The Needle and the Feather – My Favorite Acupuncture Analogy
by Matt Bauer L.Ac
I like to use analogies to describe acupuncture and my treatment approach with my patients. Good analogies help people grasp concepts associated with acupuncture they otherwise have trouble grasping. My feather analogy is by far my favorite way to explain acupuncture although it really goes beyond what most people need to understand. So here it is: In a way – acupuncture is like taking a feather and touching under someone's nose and causing them to sneeze. This is a good analogy for several reasons. First, a sneeze is something the body developed the ability to do to help it restore homeostasis – it is a self-regulatory reaction. By touching under the nose with a feather, you are using an artificial stimulus to trigger a natural self-regulatory reaction. That is exactly what acupuncture is all about – an artificial stimulus to trigger a multitude of the body's self-regulatory reactions.
But this analogy goes much further to explain acupuncture. Although it is possible to trigger a sneeze with a light feather touch under the nose, you cannot be sure it will happen. There is no "sneeze-spot" that will make everyone sneeze every time when touched. Isn't that strange? You can trigger a sneeze touching one specific spot in one person but it won't work on another person. More strange still is that you can trigger a sneeze with one spot in one person at one time and then touch the same spot in the same way on the same person at another time and it won't cause a sneeze. The reason is because when you trigger a sneeze with a feather you set-off a domino effect with the first domino being the skin cells touched with a feather and the last falling domino causing the sneeze. But in order for the first domino to knock over the last domino, several middle dominos have to line-up just right and those middle dominos constantly fluctuate in unknowable ways making the outcome difficult to control or predict.
Appreciating the role those fluctuating middle dominos play is also key to acupuncture and explains why the same points can have different effects on different people or even on the same people at different times. That is why Acupuncturists often need to use several points and treatments to attain the desired effects. That is also why the "controlled" experiments so often used to study acupuncture lead to confusing results. Imaging trying to conduct a controlled experiment to answer the question if touching under the nose with a feather triggers a sneeze. Because causing a sneeze would be so difficult to reproduce, you would probably conclude that any sneezes caused in this way were due to the placebo effect!
So there you have it: The feather and sneeze analogy not only gives a good general explanation of acupuncture (an artificial stimulus that triggers natural self-regulatory reactions), it also explains why it sometimes works and other times does not, why several points and treatments are usually needed, and why most acupuncture research gets confusing results that have mistakenly labeled the hard to control clinical benefits as placebo. I hope you find this analogy helpful.
How to Eat: Be A Label Reader
Posted by Jonah Ewell L.Ac 余自康针灸中医 in General Health & Fitness, Healthy Eating, Healthy Habits on July 25, 2014
Always read labels – if it contains ingredients you're unfamiliar with, don't buy it, don't eat it. This is my simple rule for buying prepared products. For instance, the picture above is the ingredient label for "Grandma's" chocolate cookies (taken from this excellent slideshow comparing ingredient lists for home-cooked and prepared products). Even if you ignore the "enriched" flour, why is there "corn sugar" in the chocolate chips? Natural flavor? Isn't the flavor of chocolate enough? Do you ever use vegetable shortening when you make chocolate chip cookies at home? No, of course not! You use butter, because it's delicious and it's a natural product that has been around nearly as long as human civilization.
Moving on… high fructose corn syrup. For a detailed analysis of high fructose corn syrup, please read "Fat Land" by Greg Critser. I did a quick internet search but it's hard to find reliable information online – the top results are either poorly-written screeds about how high fructose will kill you or polite marketing nonsense about how it's exactly the same as regular sugar. Long story short, high fructose corn syrup is the byproduct of aggressive corn subsidies by the U.S. federal government. It's not sugar, and your body processes it differently than regular sugar.
(A quick aside: don't take this to mean that regular sugar is wonderful – we've only had cheap refined sugar for the last few hundred years, and the whole idea of modern cakes, pies, et cetera is relatively new. Try eating fruit for dessert – a ripe, in-season fruit is packed with amazingly delicious natural sweetness.)
The rest is a mish mash of chemical goodies – propylene glycol, I have no idea what that is, but it sounds like something you would put in your car.
Be a label reader! If you don't know what it is, don't put it in your body.

might not be out for another month or so, but the
bandwagon rolls ever forward, with Summit Entertainment revealing Bill Condon will take the reigns for fourth instalment,
Breaking Dawn
It's a bit of a coup for the teen saga, with Condon lending some Oscar-winning credibility (he snagged one for his scripting work on Gods And Monsters ) to the toothy angst-fest.
"I'm very excited to get the chance to bring the climax of this saga to life on-screen," he says, in the official press release. "As fans of the series know, this is a one-of-a-kind book, and we're hoping to create an equally unique cinematic experience."
Fairly generic stuff there, but fans can expect a steady hand on what could otherwise be a fairly hysterical climax, what with Bella's half-human/half-vampire sprog causing all sorts of mayhem.
That said, Condon was responsible for Candyman: Farewell To The Flesh , so maybe we'll see a splatter-tastic conclusion to the series!
With the final novel a bit of an epic, it remains to be seen whether the story will be spread across one or two films, but we certainly wouldn't bet against it. Will Summit be after one box-office payday or two? Hmmm.
Are you excited for the Twilight climax, or happy to see the back of it?

There is a special type of life insurance policy available, known as a mortgage life insurance policy that will pay off your home in case of your demise. This type of coverage is required by some lenders, and typically pays directly to the company which holds the mortgage rather than to the person who owns the policy.
The primary purpose of mortgage life insurance is to protect the lender against losses in case the person who owns the property dies. Some mortgages even include such coverage in the monthly mortgage cost, linking the coverage into the mortgage in a decreasing premium that becomes lower as the home is paid off.
Another possibility is to purchase a term life insurance policy for the value of the home and the term of the mortgage. The advantage of this type of insurance is that the full value of the policy is paid to the named beneficiary, regardless of how much is left owing in the mortgage, providing the beneficiary with additional funds that can be used after the mortgage is paid off, such as making repairs to the property to make it less expensive to insure.
There is even a combination policy that combines term coverage with a decreasing premium and a decreasing payout value, almost exactly the way mortgage life insurance operates, payable to the heirs of the estate rather than the company holding the mortgage. This may be the least expensive method of providing mortgage coverage in case of death, but it does not provide additional funds for the heirs unless such money is included in the policy from the outset, such as having a $200,000 decreasing term policy when the actual home value is only $175,000.

December 22, 2014
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP) - Trying to put new energy behind his health care plan, President Barack Obama on Tuesday took direct aim at the health insurance industry, promising Americans that "meddling" bureaucrats should not be determining anyone's care.
"Your health insurance will be there for you when it counts, not just when you're paying premiums," Obama said to applause at a local high school.
With his poll numbers slipping and the public growing more skeptical, Obama retooled his message to the tens of millions of people who already have health insurance. That's a notable change from his typical audience of the roughly 46 million who are uninsured.
"I don't think government bureaucrats should be meddling. But I also don't think insurance company bureaucrats should be meddling," Obama said.

My Comments
I never heard that in the song, but I won't call you crazy. Trey's music producer Troy Taylor is a Christian (and often goes into a sermon when he feels it on Ustream LOL), so I personally doubt that something like would be on the album. & I know Troy didn't produce that particular song, but he's one of the overall producers on all of Trey's albums.
@humbleheart I hear you about watching who you let close to you, but I never knew new Trey was buddy buddy with people who act as you described. I do know his team and the people he keeps closest to him all have relationships with God. They always pray together, and I catch them tweeting prayers and thanking God. I don't know their relationships though, so hey.
Wow. Well this is just sad.
I have to admit, I was not expecting this from Trey. I wasn't expecting anything bad. I knew he was going to deliver, but he gave me more than I was even anticipating. I love the emotion I hear in his voice. I love the lyrics and story. Really can't wait for Chapter V!!
Yesss!!! I got it on repeat too. I love to hear emotion in singers' voices and he definitely delivered on that part. Really love this song. I just feel Chapter V is going to be everything.
Just got it and I'm so in love with this song. I feel the emotions when he sings.

And he said "have you got a book called 'Muhammad Ali - a 30 year journey' (a book of photos) and I said "yeah I've got that book and he said well look in that book for a photo of Ali in Birmingham on that tour wear he's flanked by two police officers and Ali's got one of their hats on his head (haha) an sure enough next two Ali was My work mate Tony!!

It is refreshing to see that our northern border ally has too come to see the true threat facing humanity in the 21st century. It is also refreshing to see the visionary and bold former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom taking a clear stance against the illegal regime of the Islamic Republic - especially since he has strong influence with the Quartet - I am feeling more and more confident that the international community will soon stand more firmly with the Syrian people in assisting with their liberation and that this will trickle down to Iran when Iranians rise up en masse in approximately 2-years during their next round of fake Presidential elections when the people can use it as an excuse to spill in the streets - I have included both articles below:
TONY BLAIR: Iran Is Our Real Enemy
Adam Taylor | Sep. 9, 2011, 8:15 AM
In an interview with the Times of London to commemorate the anniversary of 9/11, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair says that Iran is the real enemy.
He told the British paper:
"Regime change in Tehran would immediately make me significantly more optimistic about the whole of the region..."
"If Iran were to acquire nuclear weapons capability it would destabilize the region very, very badly.
"They continue to support groups that are engaged with terrorism and the forces of reaction. In Iraq one of the main problems has been the continued intervention of Iran and likewise in Afghanistan."
Blair also said he approved of regime change in Syria. In his view, President Bashar Assad "has shown he is not capable of reform. His position is untenable. There is no process of change that leaves him intact."
Harper says 'Islamicism' biggest threat to Canada
CBC – Tue, 6 Sep, 2011
In an exclusive interview with CBC News, Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the biggest security threat to Canada a decade after 9/11 is Islamic terrorism.
In a wide-ranging interview with CBC chief correspondent Peter Mansbridge that will air in its entirety on The National Thursday night, Harper says Canada is safer than it was on Sept. 11, 2001, when al-Qaeda attacked the U.S., but that "the major threat is still Islamicism."
"There are other threats out there, but that is the one that I can tell you occupies the security apparatus most regularly in terms of actual terrorist threats," Harper said.
Harper cautioned that terrorist threats can "come out of the blue" from a different source, such as the recent Norway attacks, where a lone gunman who hated Muslims killed 77 people.
But Harper said terrorism by Islamic radicals is still the top threat, though a "diffuse" one.
"When people think of Islamic terrorism, they think of Afghanistan, or maybe they think of some place in the Middle East, but the truth is that threat exists all over the world," he said, citing domestic terrorism in Nigeria.
The prime minister said home-grown Islamic radicals in Canada are "also something that we keep an eye on."
Harper said his government will bring back anti-terrorism clauses that were brought in in 2001 but were sunset in 2007 amid heated political debate.
There were two clauses at the heart of the debate:
One allowed police to arrest suspects without a warrant and detain them for three days without charges if police believed a terrorist act may have been committed.
The other allowed a judge to compel a witness to testify in secret about past associations or perhaps pending acts under penalty of going to jail if the witness didn't comply.
Neither clause was used by police or prosecutors in the five years before they expired.
In October 2006, a parliamentary committee recommended extending the two provisions.
The Conservatives put forward a proposal to keep the measures in place for three more years, but the three opposition parties united to defeat the proposal in February 2007 by a 159-124 vote.
The rest of the legislation remained in force.
When asked by Mansbridge if he would try to bring those laws back, Harper replied: "That is our plan."
"We think those measures are necessary. We think they've been useful," he said. "And as you know … they're applied rarely, but there are times where they're needed."

There are 44,200 results on Google for the new word 'Islamicism' which does not yet have a dictionary definition.
The Canadian Prime Minister means 'fundamentalism' or terrorism' or something like it.

Progress Energy Carolinas Residential Rates To Fall Dec. 1 In North Carolina
RALEIGH, N.C., Nov. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Progress Energy Carolinas residential customers in North Carolina will pay slightly less for electricity beginning Dec. 1.
As approved by the N.C. Utilities Commission (NCUC), the bill for a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per month will decrease from $105.15 to $104.06.
The decrease is similar to other decreases applied in 2009 and 2010.
In September, customers began seeing reductions in their bills related to Progress Energy's merger with Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK).Although Duke Energy Carolinas and Progress Energy Carolinas continue to operate as separate utilities, the merger agreements allow the companies to jointly dispatch power plants to reduce fuel expenses – thereby lowering the fuel costs passed on to customers. These changes are already saving residential customers 85 cents on a monthly 1,000 kWh bill. The additional decrease announced today reflects changes in three components of the rates N.C. residential customers pay. The changes, based on a monthly 1,000 kWh bill, include:
- A decrease of $1.54 in the monthly amount customers are charged for fuels used to generate electricity;
- An increase of 59 cents in the monthly charge used to pay for energy-efficiency and demand-side management programs; and
- A decrease of 14 cents per month in the charge for state-mandated renewable energy.

FREMONT, Calif., March 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Quark Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a pharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of RNAi-based therapeutics, today announced that it has received results from a prospective randomized Phase 2 trial, the DEGAS study. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of PF-04523655 (RTP801I-14) in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). 184 patients were randomly assigned to four treatment groups; three dose levels of PF-04523655 (RTP801I-14) (0.4mg, 1mg, and 3mg) or laser. The study was designed with a primary endpoint of mean visual acuity improvements over baseline at 24 months.
Interim results at 12 months showed there were no drug related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs). Following 12 months of treatment with PF-04523655 (RTP801I-14), a dose dependent improvement in visual acuity was observed with the best results achieved at the 3mg dose level. At this dose, the mean improvement from baseline on a visual acuity test was 5.8 letters for all patients enrolled in this dose group while in patients treated with laser photocoagulation control (the current standard of care) visual acuity improved by only 2.4 letters on average (p=0.08). Furthermore, in a separate secondary analysis of the 111 patients who completed the 12 month follow up visit, the mean improvement from baseline on a visual acuity test in the 3mg group was 9.1 letters while in patients treated with laser photocoagulation control visual acuity improved by only 3.2 letters on average (p<0.01).
The study was terminated at 12 months based upon this interim analysis suggesting that higher doses would be necessary to produce a therapeutic effect sufficiently superior to the current standard of care to benefit patients over the long term given emerging new therapeutic modalities. Based upon these results, and in view of a dose related effect on vision, Quark and Pfizer have mutually agreed that a Pha

Hi everyone,Hope you had a great week! Thanks for your votes!I hope you do not mind, but I'm going to keep this week's blog brief. If you follow me on Twitter, you may know that my grandmother died on Wednesday. It's been a hard couple of days. She was 76. She had stomach cancer, but she had surgery a little while ago and was supposed to be OK. We found out last week that it returned. My mom was flying out to Russia, but my grandmother died before she got there. I'm just sorry she did not get to see her. I have never lost an immediate family member before, so it's hard for me to comprehend someone not being there anymore. I just do not get it. I was able to speak to her, fortunately, before she passed. My grandmother was a very strong, very active person, and she sounded kind of defeated. That was very strange for me to hear. It was such a sudden turn of events. I feel like in this day and age, with so much progress and technology, certain things could be prevented. My grandma was a great woman. She raised three wonderful children and was a very proud grandmother. I'm worried about my grandfather because they were married for 53 years. My mom is in Russia now. I'm not going to call right now because I just need to give her time. In Russian tradition, there is a nine-day period before a service, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to go to Russia until after the season is over. We'll figure it out.In times like these, everything else seems trivial, but I was very happy with our rumba. We had a great time. Brandy really went after it. We really tried to do a true rumba and not a Dancing with the Stars kind of rumba, and I think we succeeded. I got phone calls and messages from my dancer friends afterward saying that it was a great rumba and they enjoyed it. We tried out best. I thought the judges were much better this week with actual constructive criticism. Both nights were well done. I think the new stage really livened things up. I always like being closer to the audience, so I loved the stage. Our song was already acoustic in itself, but I thought the orchestra did a nice job with our music. The whole week was pretty positive.The Situation left. I can't say I was really surprised. He was close to the bottom or at the bottom every week. He has a lot of fans and they kept him in and rightfully so because everybody can vote for their favorite. But somebody's got to go each week and it was his time. If he gave it his best and that was the outcome, we need to applaud his effort. Jennifer was again very impressive. They did a great dance and I think they deserved those 10s.Next week, we have the quickstep. We're still working it out. It should be good. Quicksteps are not very exciting dances because they're very technical and you're not supposed to break hold. There's not going to be much to wow people, especially since other couples are doing dances that are flashier. We're going for a good performance. It's TV Theme Week and we have the theme from Friends. I think it's a good fit for the dance. We're not going to act it out and dress up as Ross or Monica or anything. Well, that would be weird anyway since they're siblings!It's a little difficult trying to work on the routine. I've been thinking a lot about stuff. I mean, I truly just do not get it. Brandy and everyone at the show have been extremely supportive. Erin's been calling and I've talked to a few people. People close to me know how close I am to my family and that nothing else matters. Once in a while, Cheryl will say something and I'll be like, "I'm about to start crying." Otherwise, I'm quite strong. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Brandy and I don't want to take away from her enjoying her experience. At the same time, I'm human. I'm going to do my best. I'm very responsible when it comes to teaching and definitely am not going to let Brandy down. Monday will be for grandma.One more thing: Please tell your family and friends that you love them.That's all for now. Thanks for reading.Maks

In the world of hunting and wildlife conservation, we're always looking for new people to join us in what we love. Recently, fellow blogger, Bob St. Pierre, wrote about Georgia Pellegrini and how women's participation in hunting has increased 36.6 percent over the past decade. A pretty staggering number, isn't it? I think this new trend is a great sign for the future of hunting and conservation.
I know I essentially said "the more the merrier" when it comes to people being interested in the outdoors, but… let me try to weigh the pros and cons of this latest fashion trend:
Now that I think about it, maybe it's a good thing fashion tends to be like technology in the fact it's obsolete before you even get it home.
