So now that I have all the huge pots for brewing, im making some chili recipe's on the side. I think I may enter my nuclear meltdown chili into the beer & chili contest my hometown holds. Anywho, does anyone make chili too? Any good recipes to pass along?
I don't have any recipes, but I've found that alcohol makes for good chili. I usually put a bit of vodka in mine, which burns the alcohol out but leaves that hot kick you get from hard alcohol. A boss of mine made Tequila chili since he was from south Texas and it was AWESOME!!!
My SWMBO made this recipe a couple times and it's been great. The two key ingredients are a hint of cocoa powder and a good beer. She used a Guinness the first batch and my HB stout for the second batch.
Primary: Nearly Nirvana Pale Ale Secondary: Needs cleaning Kegged: Graff, Web Interaction Wit, Edmund Fitz clone Porter, AHS's Pliny the Elder clone Bottled: Holiday Ale
1/2 cup brown sugar. That seems a bit high, but it looks good. I'd dump the lean ground beef and use plain old roast. I've made this and it's very good as well:http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/reci..._28277,00.html Up the chipolte and jalapeno to your own taste.
This place really went to hell. Follow the OF standard stout. Bye.
I always put a bottle of Guinness in mine, I also put in a small amount of ground pork along with the beef. The fat is slightly different in pork and keeps the chili a little more solid and substantial.
I always put beer and cocoa powder in mine. Sounds strange but it's yummy!
I made some chili last night, I put in 4 lbs of sausage and ground beef. Needless to say, there are leftovers. Delicious!
Usually the standard ground beef/venison for the meat browned with some chopped fresh garlic and cilantro. White chilis (seed in) for the heat, red and green sweet peppers, fresh tomatoes, some white onion, a decent mix of pinto and black beans, ground cumin and chili powder. Sometimes Ill put a bit of whatever white wine Ive got laying around in if its too thick. Its pretty standard but I let it simmer in the crock pot on low overnight and its good to go.
Three tips: 1. Dont just use ground beef. You can get so much more flavor and texture if you use 50% beef and 50% something else. I like pork. Although I have used ground turkey too and people LOVED it. 2. Make your own chili powder. It is easy to do and you can do it with ingredients at your local store. Look it up on the internet, it is easy. 3. Use a nice dark beer for a good chunk of the liquid.

I love the red switch grass. Need to keep my eyes open for some next year. I have Japanese blood grass, but it's done very little this year. It has the same coloring, but stays a lot smaller. |

You know, I just love grasses and I realized I really need some for my garden. Yours are lovely and I thank you for the inspiration. Edna |
The red switch grass is gorgeous. It's definitely on my list for next year. I love your grass bed. They add so much texture to the garden. Do you leave them up for the winter? |

These are gorgeous. I'm planning on planting grasses in my back yard, and this is the reason why..thank-you! |
Yes, they stay as is until early spring when they must be cut back severely.It is quite a job on the large ones, but then isn't all gardening work? I am moving all the eragrostis though. They are too wispy and are encroaching on their neighbors. Not sure yet where I will put them |

This is the fourth and final installment of our our Labor Day vacation in Aspen.
A highlight of our yearly trip to Aspen over Labor day is our Sunday morning trip to the top of Aspen Mountain.
But before we get there, we'll start with breakfast. I've mentioned this before but it's worth repeating. The Limelight has a great buffet breakfast and a wonderful, large, beautiful and comfortable lobby. My standard breakfast has become their granola smothered in blueberry yogurt. Maybe a muffin to top things off. Today, instead of a muffin I went for a donut glazed with chocolate. Of course there was coffee involved and lots of it. Donna likes a blueberry muffin and fresh fruit salad and water is fine, thank you.
After breakfast we usually will take a stroll through downtown and maybe stop in a shop or two. About 10:30 or so we'll head over to the base of Aspen mountain and get a couple of gondola tickets and head up to the top of Aspen mountain. The 3000′ ascent is beautiful although this day a bit windy and as I sat and watched the gondola cars ahead of me swaying in the wind, was just a tad apprehensive.
We arrived safely about 15 minutes later and as we've learned, were glad we dressed appropriately as it was both breezy and chilly. I'll include some pictures taken on Sunday, but the best one is the panorama shot from my nephew Kevin that appears on the top of this blog. At over 11,000′ you are at eye level with the majestic mountains tops surrounding Aspen and the panoramic shot of helps do such a vista justice.
The Sundeck on top of the mountain is a very popular place to have a wedding. In fact here is a picture of them setting up for one as I walked around.
We also always eat lunch at the Sundeck. I guess we shouldn't be surprised as it's Aspen, but the food is very good. They always have a variety, from burgers and Pizza to wraps and Chinese food. The prices are Aspen reasonable. I had a pulled pork sandwich with chipotle barbecue sauce with a side of pineapple slaw. Donna had a Chinese something or other. I liked mine a lot and she loved hers.
Every Sunday during the summer, at noon, the Sundeck features a bluegrass band. I've never been much into bluegrass until we started this tradition. Specifically it was two years ago when I heard a band called The Greencards. I liked what I heard and since then have purchased all four of their CD's and listen to them regularly. I highly recommend them, even if you, like me, have no interest in bluegrass. They write great songs which transcend the genre and, I think, appeal to anyone who appreciates good melodies and vocals.
This day, the band was Loose Cannon. Based in Denver, they don't quite measure up to The Greencards but we enjoyed them none the less. They performed a variety of bluegrass standards, covers of others songs along with a few they wrote. Here is a very poor picture of Loose Cannon. Weather permitting, the bands play outside but today, with the wind, they played inside and with the stage against the window, presents a beautiful site in person of the band playing with the mountains showing through the huge windows behind them Getting a picture with a camera phone doesn't work so well, hopefully you will get a feel for what we enjoyed.
Earlier, before lunch, a chipmunk was kind enough to pose fort this picture.
The ride down was less windy which was nice. Another walk around town including the eastern part of town where we had never previously ventured. Our dinner was at Brunelleschi's which is another tradition. Like most other places, it's expensive. A single serving, cheese only, pizza is $11 while their specialy pizza's are $17. Yes that's $17 for a single serving pizza. However, they are good although maybe not to everyone's taste. They are thin, very thin, extremely thin crust pizza's. We like that style though. Despite that, I got a meatball panini because, well they make maybe the best meatball panini around.
Back to the hotel in time for a last dip in the hot tub.
Thus ended another Labor Day in Aspen. Next years visit is up in the air. We've got a wedding in June and as I heard Donna say to someone on the phone, our vacation next year may be an afternoon and evening in Broomfield
I was thinking about going to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival next year but that's a week before the wedding and the timing is just not right, but 2012, yeah, that just might work. A reasonable thought for next year is the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival which is in August next year. It's close so we can make day trips. I'm not ruling out Aspen, especially if they book someone we like.
If we do go to Aspen I will be changing up our return plans. Up until Monday, we've never had problems getting home. We would leave Aspen about 9:00 and be home by 1:30 or 2:00. Yesterday we hit traffic at Silverthorn and it was very slow going until Idaho Springs. Very frustrating and no way to end a long holiday weekend. What I would like to do is stay an extra day and leave on Tuesday but the budget may rule otherwise.
For those of you who were able to make it through all 4 parts, I'm both thankful and concerned about your sanity. I'll leave you with a few more pictures from atop Aspen Mountain.

True Matrix v1.8
May 24, 2014 True Matrix Total Conversion Full Version 3 commentsProbably going to be the final one, its got many refinements but its also got unfinished new assets.
Journey into the gritty and not particularly pleasant world of Max Payne. This third person action game features a strong storyline and an altogether interesting antihero. Max Payne is a gritty journey to the present day New York City during the worst winter blizzard in a century. The thriller pulp story keeps the players guessing right on till the end. The game shoots from the lowest slum pits to the greatest skyscraper heights, leaving behind a trail of corpses, splatters of blood, and empty brass rolling on the floor.
About Max Payne 3 with 17 comments by INtense! on Jun 3rd, 2012
Max Payne 3 has just blown into town like an old lover so why not reminisce about the old days by replaying the original two games.... Modified!
The Real World
It wouldn't be a Max Payne 1 mod if we didn't have some high flying kungfu and bullet dodging now would it? The most recent of all the MP mods to be released, however it is only a demo. Lets see where they go with this!
It seems you got anime in my angsty. Katana draws you into the violent and chaotic world of an Assassin on the run: - from his Order; from the shattered remains of his past; and from the haunting screams of the countless people he's murdered.
Max Payne@University
This mod was acutally modeled after a real university and a story played around it! It makes use of a few other mods like Kung Fu 3 Deluxe Engine (by Kenneth Yeung, MrUniq) and the Enemy Kung Fu (by Ghasp) engine to round (house kick) out the mod.
The Family
The Family is a truly unique modding experience, as it follows the story of the young gangster Tony in an entire black and white film noir-ish world of the 1930's mafia era.
Payne Effects 3
It wouldn't be a modding guide without one overhaul mod, and this one is really good. With new spectacular unique effects and with lot of key features that will drammatically change the original gameplay. Everything is created to improve the original feel of the game without loosing the Max Payne signature.
7th Serpent: Crossfire and 7th Serpent: Genesis
Thrusting players into a world of corruption, secrecy and vengeance. Two different chapters within the same universe. Made by ModDB's ye'old editor Stenchy and his team, so you know it is good!
Mona: The Assassin
Mona Sax is a contract-killer, a job at which she excels. When a Mafia boss sends his army of mobsters after her, assaulting her hideout and forcing her to flee through the city streets, it gets personal and real nasty. Play through a fan story of Mona Sax!
You can find many more gems right here on ModDB! Max Payne's new story can wait a little longer can't it?
Probably going to be the final one, its got many refinements but its also got unfinished new assets.
This is yet another Matrix mod for Max Payne, and possibly the best one yet.
Added a weapon: Stery Aug Made two weapons zoomable: Aug MP5trans. Made weapons by the same caliber use eachothers ammo: Ingram, beretta, beretta dual...
Newly designed HUD. New Neo Model: No pony tail(thank god) Darker, less transparent sunglasses. New things with fire(cuz fire is just cool): M.79 catches...
Here are the basic changes of the mod: Added New Weapons: MP5K, Dual MP5Ks, Minigun(oh yeah), Dual Winchesters(sawed offs), Kung Fu Version 2.0(newsest...
Part 2 takes place two month after Part 1. Hellsing corp got infos about a man called "thunder snake". He´s delivering weapons to hojo to arm an unstoppable...
terrible writing.
Practiced bravado!?
however the first game to ever have bullet-time is Quake....just use the host_framerate var ;)
I like the never-ending ending. Reminds me of that cheesy outsiders movie.
Movie!! so did I thuink at first....looking at ther awesome ghraphics...
realistic eh? :D
I must agree it was a tad short, i could not believe it when i finished it, cos i mean i did not play on the hardest difficultly but i did not struggle at all :|
Maybe thats just me? :P
And if you want movie/game style play this mod rocks, awesome story line though MGS (Metal Gear Solid) is also brilliant in that regard
great movie/game uhhh, whatever.... just too short

When you think of Ben Wallace, you probably think of great defense, incredible shoulder definition and embarrassingly terrible free throw shooting. Those are pretty much the go-to descriptors for Ben Wallace, now that he doesn't have that giant Afro.
One thing you definitely don't think of is his three-point shooting, which makes sense considering he's made seven threes in a 16-year NBA career. If Ben Wallace makes a three, you pinch yourself to make sure you're still alive and not in some dream world where Brad Miller can jump off the floor and Carlos Boozer has all his hair.
But last night, in real life, Ben Wallace made a three-pointer in an actual NBA basketball game. Afterwards, he was bigging himself up for his long range exploits. From the AP:
"Three-ball — that ain't nothing that you all haven't seen before," Wallace said.
This is technically true. If you have watched every single game Ben Wallace has ever played, then you have seen him hit a three six times before last night. You would have to have payed VERY close attention, but I guess that could be something you've seen before. Who can forget that time on April 6, 2005 when he made a three against the Wizards? Classic Ben Wallace moment.
But that's not the only thing we haven't seen before with regards to things Ben Wallace did last night. He also airballed two free throws, which is way more common, I'd have to imagine. His response:
"They hacked me. I made a couple free throws, shot a couple airballs — still ain't nothing that you all have never seen before."
This could be a great character: Terrible Shooter Who is Very Cocky. It'd be just a very aggressive guy who says things like, "Yeah, I airballed some shots. No big deal. I'll do that every night if I want to." Could be an interesting avenue to see Ben Wallace explore, though it's a shame he had to happen upon such a wonderful act this late in his career. It might be too late to properly develop a backstory, but I at least like the idea.
And you have to like that Ben Wallace knows he's going to airball some freebies. At this point, when he's about ready to retire, there's really no reason why he'd expect to be anything other than bad from the line. Upon his retirement, he will leave the game as literally the worst free throw shooter ever, which more than entitles him to brag about how bad he is at shooting. He's the best at being bad, so he might as well own it.
Besides, are you going to say anything mean to Ben Wallace about his free throws? Me neither.

SCE&G Seeks Fuel Cost Adjustment from Public Service Commission of South Carolina
Media Contact:
Kim Asbill
Investor Contact:
Iris Griffin
Columbia, S.C., Feb. 18, 2011
—South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G), principal subsidiary of SCANA Corporation (NYSE: SCG), today filed with the Public Service Commission of South Carolina (PSC) for an adjustment to the fuel cost portion of its electric rates.
The PSC and the South Carolina Office of Regulatory Staff annually review the costs SCE&G incurs in purchasing fuel to operate its electric generation facilities. Those costs are then recovered from customers through an adjustment to rates. SCE&G cannot earn a profit on that portion of its rates. If approved, the average bill for residential customers using 1,000 kwh per month will increase $1.93 or 1.56 percent – going from $124.03 to $125.96 beginning in May. Fuel costs currently represent about 30 percent of what a residential customer pays for a kilowatt hour of electricity.
"SCE&G has taken steps to minimize the cost of providing power, such as relying less on coal-fired plants and using more of the company's natural gas-fired turbines while natural gas prices have remained relatively low," said SCE&G President Kevin Marsh. "However, we are currently about $76.7 million undercollected on our fuel costs, which is why we're seeking this adjustment."
South Carolina Electric & Gas Company is a regulated public utility engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity to approximately 661,000 customers in South Carolina. The company also provides natural gas service to approximately 314,000 customers throughout the state. More information about SCE&G is available at

27 January 2014 -- The United Nations has designated 27 January as an annual International Day of commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust. On this date in 1945, the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp was liberated by Soviet Red Army troops.Auschwitz, in southern Poland, was the biggest Nazi death camp. Up to 6 million Jews, as well as hundreds of thousands of others deemed undesirable due to ethnic origin, religious or political beliefs, sexual orientation, or other reasons were murdered during the Holocaust.Every member nation of the U.N. has an obligation to honor the memory of Holocaust victims and develop educational programs as part of an international resolve to help prevent future acts of genocide. This year's theme is "Children and the Holocaust" and film screenings, exhibits and talks sharing children's stories during that era are being shared to spread awareness of their experiences.Sources: United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Task Force for International Cooperation on Holocaust Education, Remembrance, and Research

City of Wilson Notice of Privacy Practices
Employee Dental and Vision Plans
City Flexible Medical Spending Accounts
City of Wilson
P. O. Box 10
Wilson, NC 27894
Effective date of this notice: 04/14/04
If you have questions about this notice, please contact the person listed under "Whom to Contact" at the end of this notice.
In order to provide you with benefits, the City of Wilson Dental and Vision Plans, including the City's Flexible Medical Spending Account (hereafter referred to as the "Plans") will receive personal information about your health, from you, your physicians, dentists, or hospitals. The Plans are required to keep this information confidential. This notice of privacy practices is intended to inform you of the ways the Plans may use your information and the occasions on which the Plans may disclose this information to others.
The Plans use members' health information to provide benefits. The Plans disclose members' information to health care providers to assist them in providing you with treatment or to help them receive payment. The Plans may disclose information to other insurance companies as necessary to receive payment, the Plans may use the information within our organization to evaluate quality and improve health care operations, and the Plans may make other uses and disclosures of members' information as required by law or as permitted by City of Wilson policies.
This notice applies to any information in the Plans' possession that would allow someone to identify you and learn something about your health. It does not apply to information that contains nothing that could reasonably be used to identify you.
- City of Wilson Dental and Vision plans and the City's Flexible Medical Spending Accounts
- All employees, students and interns who work for the City of Wilson on behalf of the Plans and who have access to any protected health information about you and your covered dependents.
The people and organizations to which this notice applies (referred to as the "Plans," "we," "our," and "us") have agreed to abide by its terms. The Plans may share your information with each other for purposes of treatment, and as necessary for payment and operations activities as described below.
- The Plans are required by law to maintain the privacy of your health information.
- The Plans are required to provide this notice of our privacy practices and legal duties regarding health information to anyone who asks for it.
- The Plans are required to abide by the terms of this notice until the Plans officially adopt a new notice.
The Plans may use your health information, or disclose it to others, for a number of different reasons. For each reason, the Plans have written a brief explanation. The Plans also provide some examples. These examples do not include all of the specific ways the Plans may use or disclose your information. But any time the Plans use your information or disclose it to someone else, it will fit one of the reasons listed here.
1. Treatment: The Plans may use your health information to assist you in obtaining medical care and services. For example, if you are unable to provide information as the result of an accident, the Plan may advise an emergency room physician the name of your dentist.
2. Payment: We may use or disclose your health information to obtain payment for services we provide to you. For example, the Plan may receive and maintain information about a dental procedure you received to enable the Plan to process a dental claim.
3. Health Care Operations: The Plans may use and disclose your health information for activities that are necessary to operate it, or operate it more efficiently, and to make certain all of the Plans' participants receive their health benefits. For example, the Plans may disclose your health information, and the information of other members, as necessary to others with whom the Plans contract to provide administrative services, to perform population-based studies designed to reduce health care costs, or to plan what services the Plans need to provide, expand, or reduce. In addition, the Plans may use or disclose your PHI to our lawyers, auditors, and consultants to conduct compliance reviews, audits, actuarial studies, and/or for fraud and abuse detection. The Plans may also combine health information about many Plan participants and disclose it to the City of Wilson in summary fashion so it can decide what coverage the Plan should provide. The Plans may remove information that identifies you from health information disclosed to the City of Wilson so it may be used without learning who the specific participants are.
4. Legal Requirement to Disclose Information: We may use or disclose your health information when we are required to do so by law. For example, the Plans may be required to disclose your health information, and the information of others, if the Plans are audited by government agencies charged with monitoring health care systems and enforcing State or Federal regulations with which the Plans must comply. The Plans will also disclose your health information when the Plans are required to do so by a court order or other judicial or administrative process.
5. Public Health Activities: The Plans will disclose your health information when required to do so for public health purposes. These activities include preventing or controlling disease, injury or disability or reporting reactions to medication or problems with medical products or to notify people of recalls of products they have been using.
6. To Report Abuse: The Plans may disclose your health information when the information relates to a victim of abuse, neglect or domestic violence. The Plans will make this report only in accordance with laws that require or allow such reporting, or with your permission.
7. Law Enforcement: The Plans, to the degree allowed by law, may disclose your health information for law enforcement purposes. This includes providing information to help locate a suspect, fugitive, material witness or missing person, or in connection with suspected criminal activity. The Plans must also disclose your health information to a federal agency investigating our compliance with privacy regulations.
8. Specialized Purposes: The Plans may disclose your health information for specialized purposes. The Plans will only disclose as much information as is necessary for the particular purpose. For example, the Plans may disclose your health information to the City of Wilson as your employer for purposes of Workers' Compensation and worksite safety laws (OSHA, for instance).
9. To Avert A Serious Threat: The Plans may disclose your health information if the Plans decide that the disclosure is necessary to prevent serious harm to the Public or to an individual. The disclosure will only be made to someone who is able to prevent or reduce the threat.
10. Family and Friends: The Plans may disclose your health information to a member of your family or to someone else who is involved in your medical care or payment for care. This may include investigating and reporting claims status and benefit entitlements with a family member. In the event of a disaster, the Plans may provide information about you to a disaster relief organization so they can notify your family of your condition and location. The Plans will not disclose your information to family or friends if you object.
11. Health Benefits Information: Your health information may be disclosed to the City of Wilson by the health plan as necessary for the administration of your employer's health benefit program for employees. The City of Wilson may receive this information only for purposes of administering their employee group health plans, and has special rules to prevent the misuse of your information for other purposes.
1. Authorization: The Plans may use or disclose your health information for any purpose that is listed in this notice without your written authorization. The Plans will not use or disclose your health information for any other reason without your authorization. If you authorize the Plans to use or disclose your health information, you have the right to revoke the authorization at any time. For information about how to authorize us to use or disclose your health information, or about how to revoke an authorization, contact the person listed under "Whom to Contact" at the end of this notice. You may not revoke an authorization for the Plans to use and disclose your information to the extent that the Plans have taken action in reliance on the authorization. If the authorization is to permit disclosure of your information to an insurance company, as a condition of obtaining coverage, other law may allow the insurer to continue to use your information to contest claims or your coverage, even after you have revoked the authorization.
2. Request Restrictions: You have the right to ask us to restrict how the Plans use or disclose your health information. The Plans will consider your request. But the Plans are not required to agree. If the Plans do agree, the Plans will comply with the request unless the information is needed to provide you with emergency treatment. The Plans cannot agree to restrict disclosures that are required by law.
3. Confidential Communication: If you believe that the disclosure of certain information could endanger you, you have the right to ask us to communicate with you at a special address or by special means. For example, you may ask us to speak to you personally on the telephone rather than discuss your health information with your spouse. The Plans will agree to any reasonable request.
4. Inspect And Receive a Copy of Health Information: You have a right to inspect the health information about you that the Plans have in our records, and to receive a copy of it. This right is limited to information about you that is kept in records that are used to make decisions about you. For instance, this includes dental and vision claims and enrollment records. If you have to review or receive a copy of these records, you must make the request in writing. The Plans may charge a fee for the cost of copying and mailing the records. To ask to inspect your records, or to receive a copy, contact the person listed under "Whom to Contact" at the end of this notice. The Plans will respond to your request within 30 days.

5. Amend Health Information: You have the right to ask the Plans to amend health information about you that you believe is not correct, or not complete. You must make this request in writing, and give us the reason you believe the information is not correct or complete. The Plans will respond to your request in writing within 30 days. The Plans may deny your request if the Plans did not create the information, if it is not part of the records the Plans use to make decisions about you, if the information is something you would not be permitted to inspect or copy, or if the information is complete and accurate.
6. Accounting Disclosures: You have a right to receive an accounting of certain disclosures of your information to others. This accounting will list the times The Plans have given your health information to others. The list will include dates of the disclosures, the names of the people or organization to whom the information was disclosed, a description of the information, and the reason. The Plans will provide the first list of disclosures you request at no charge. The Plans may charge you for any additional lists you request during the following 12 months. You must tell us the time period you want the list to cover. You may not request a time period longer than six years. The Plans cannot include disclosures made before April 14, 2004.

Providing universal access to blood supplies is a key objective for global health agencies. The World Health Organization is committed to establishing national blood systems in all countries to ensure that blood is available. Nevertheless, there is remarkably little evidence from randomised controlled trials on what types of patients benefit from blood transfusions, what blood products should be transfused, and how much patients should receive. Indeed, a 2008 systematic review of the association between blood transfusion and morbidity and mortality in high-risk hospitalised patients concluded that transfusions are associated with increased morbidity and mortality and urged that transfusion practices should be re-evaluated. Furthermore, even if a blood transfusion is indicated, there are risks associated with transfusion. Although in high-income countries blood is screened for infections, in some low-income countries, donated blood is not adequately screened and patients are at risk of contracting infections such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) through blood transfusions. The identification of strategies to minimise exposure to blood is therefore of considerable global health importance.
This collection of Cochrane Reviews summarises the evidence for the safety and effectiveness of interventions to reduce the need for blood transfusion. For some interventions the evidence is strong. For example, there is reliable evidence that the antifibrinolytic agent tranexamic acid safely reduces mortality in bleeding trauma patients and that antifibrinolytic drugs reduce bleeding and exposure to allogeneic blood transfusion in elective surgery. Given the increasing global burden of trauma and the risk of HIV, HBV, and HCV from blood transfusion in many parts of the world, a strong case can be made for ensuring universal access to tranexamic acid, which also happens to be an inexpensive treatment. Indeed, efforts to ensure universal access to safe blood without taking steps to reduce the need for blood transfusion seem inappropriate. Trials currently underway of tranexamic acid in post-partum bleeding may add further indications, and if so would strengthen the case for universal access. Cell salvage, which involves collecting the patient's own blood from surgical sites and transfusing it back into the patient, appears promising, but larger high-quality trials are needed. A review of transfusion thresholds suggests that giving less blood is safe and that blood transfusion is not essential unless haemoglobin levels drop below 7 or 8 g/dL, although further trials are needed to inform practice in patients with heart problems. For other interventions the jury is still out and further trials are needed. However, the evidence in this collection deserves careful consideration by all those who may have to give or receive a blood transfusion.
The Cochrane Reviews highlighted here have been prepared by the authors and editors of the Cochrane Injuries Group.
Anti-fibrinolytic use for minimising perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion
Antifibrinolytic drugs are widely used, particularly in cardiac surgery, and previous reviews have found them to be effective in reducing blood loss, the need for transfusion, and the need for re-operation due to continued or recurrent bleeding. In the past few years questions have been raised regarding the comparative performance of the drugs. The safety of the most popular agent, aprotinin, has been challenged, and it was withdrawn from world markets in May 2008 because of concerns that it increased the risk of cardiovascular complications and death. This review assesses the comparative effects of the antifibrinolytic drugs aprotinin, tranexamic acid, and epsilon aminocaproic acid on blood loss during surgery, the need for red-blood-cell transfusion, and adverse events, particularly vascular occlusion, renal dysfunction, and death.
Antifibrinolytic drugs for acute traumatic injury
Uncontrolled bleeding is an important cause of death in trauma victims. Antifibrinolytic treatment has been shown to reduce blood loss following surgery and may also be effective in reducing blood loss following trauma. This review aims to quantify the effect of antifibrinolytic drugs in reducing blood loss, transfusion requirement and mortality after acute traumatic injury.
Fibrin sealant use for minimising peri-operative allogeneic blood transfusion
Fibrin sealants (also referred to as biological glue or fibrin tissue adhesives) have gained increasing popularity as interventions to improve peri-operative (intra- and post-operative) haemostasis and diminish the need for allogeneic red-cell transfusion (blood from an unrelated donor). This review examines the efficacy of fibrin sealants in reducing peri-operative blood loss and allogeneic red-blood-cell transfusion.
Desmopressin use for minimising perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion
Public concerns regarding the safety of blood transfusions have prompted reconsideration of the use of allogeneic blood transfusion, and a range of techniques have been designed to minimise transfusion requirements. This review examines the efficacy of desmopressin acetate (1-deamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin) in reducing peri-operative blood loss and the need for red-blood-cell transfusion in patients who do not have congenital bleeding disorders.
Cell salvage for minimising perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion
'Cell salvage' or 'autotransfusion' involves the collection of a patient's own blood from surgical sites which can be transfused back into the same person during or after surgery, as required. This review assesses the evidence for the efficacy of cell salvage in reducing allogeneic blood transfusion and the evidence for any effect on clinical outcomes.
Platelet-rich-plasmapheresis for minimising peri-operative allogeneic blood transfusion
Platelet-rich plasmapheresis is a technique that involves a patient's own blood (autologous whole blood) being withdrawn via an intravenous catheter into a device that separates the blood by centrifugation into red blood cells, plasma, and a highly concentrated platelet solution. This concentrated autologous platelet solution is returned to the patient at the end of the operation to optimise blood clotting and minimise bleeding. This review examines the evidence for the efficacy of platelet-rich plasmapheresis in reducing peri-operative allogeneic red-blood-cell transfusion, and the evidence for any effect on clinical outcomes such as mortality and re-operation rates.
Transfusion thresholds and other strategies for guiding allogeneic red blood cell transfusion
Most clinical practice guidelines recommend restrictive red-cell transfusion practices, with the goal of minimising exposure to allogeneic blood. This review aims to examine the evidence for the effect of transfusion thresholds on the use of allogeneic and/or autologous red-cell transfusion, and the evidence for any effect on clinical outcomes.
Timing and volume of fluid administration for patients with bleeding
Treatment of haemorrhagic shock involves maintaining blood pressure and tissue perfusion until bleeding is controlled. Different resuscitation strategies have been used to maintain the blood pressure in trauma patients until bleeding is controlled. However, while maintaining blood pressure may prevent shock, it may worsen bleeding. This review assesses the effects of early versus delayed, and larger versus smaller volume of fluid administration in trauma patients with bleeding.

Dilworth is a neighborhood of Charlotte, North Carolina, USA. The neighborhood was Charlotte's first streetcar suburb and was established by Edward Dilworth Latta in the 1890s on 250 acres (1 km²) southwest of the original city limits. It included the Joseph Forsyth Johnson designed Latta Park. Planned largely with a grid pattern similar to the city's original four wards, Dilworth was initially designated the Eighth Ward.
Sedgefield Park serves as a Pedestrian connection to bordering Sedgefield.
The streets of Dilworth feature stately, mature oak trees, sidewalks, and houses with front porches. The homes are primarily bungalows — with the occasional Queen Anne — and some larger, two-story Colonial Revivals lining Dilworth Road East and West. East Boulevard serves as the main thoroughfare through the neighborhood. East Boulevard is lined with restaurants, offices and shops, many located in renovated homes. Charlotte's largest hospital, Carolinas Medical Center, is in Dilworth. This 861-bed teaching hospital is the region's only Level 1 trauma center.
Much of the neighborhood is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Dilworth Historic District.[1]

I can't believe it's been 46 years since I graduated from Salmon River Central School in Fort Covington. Where have the years gone?
Obe Duprey was senior-class president, and I was vice president. I'd have to look in my yearbook to remember who filled the rest of the offices.
We held a 10-year reunion and had a wonderful 25-year reunion. Two of our teachers attended, Joanne McElwain, the homemaking teacher, and Katherine Sullivan, the English teacher. Mrs. McElwain was always happy and quick to remind you to get that suit sewn by the deadline. Miss Sullivan would stroll around the classroom reading Shakespeare to us. We couldn't understand what she was reading, but we knew she meant business when she threw the chalkboard eraser at the boys in the back of the room who weren't paying attention. She has since passed away.
We definitely need to have a 50th. I think it's easier to get together as you get older. There's nothing to prove anymore. If you aren't happy and settled in by this age, you probably aren't ever going to be. I would say 98 percent of the people there will be chubby or bald or have gray hair, but at least they will be there. We have quite a few who we'll never see again.
I was thinking about our pending class reunion when I got an email that made me laugh out loud, shake my head and say, "Yes, that's the way it is." I'd like to share it with you:
"Every ten years, as summertime nears, an announcement arrives in the mail; a reunion is planned; it'll be really grand; make plans to attend without fail.
"I'll never forget the first time we met, we tried so hard to impress; we drove fancy cars, smoked big cigars, and wore our most elegant dress.
"It was quite an affair; the whole class was there. It was held at a fancy hotel. We wined, and we dined, and we acted refined, and everyone thought it was swell.
"The men all conversed about who had been first to achieve great fortune and fame. Meanwhile, their spouses described their fine houses and how beautiful their children became.
"The homecoming queen, who once had been lean, now weighed in at one-ninety-six; the jocks who were there had all lost their hair, and the cheerleaders could no longer do kicks.
"No one had heard about the class nerd, who'd guided a spacecraft to the moon; or poor little Jane, who's always been plain, she married a shipping tycoon.
"The boy we'd decreed 'most apt to succeed,' was serving ten years in the pen, while the one voted 'least' now was a priest, just shows you can be wrong now and then.
"They took a class picture, a curious mixture of beehives, crew cuts, and wide ties. Tall, short, or skinny, the style was the mini, you never saw so many thighs.
"At our next get-together, no one cared whether they impressed their classmates or not.
"The mood was informal, a whole lot more normal, by this time we'd all gone to pot.
"It was held out-of-doors at the lake shores, we ate hamburgers, coleslaw, and beans.
"Then most of us lay around in the shade, in our comfortable T-shirts and jeans.
"By the fiftieth year, it was abundantly clear, we were definitely over the hill; those who weren't dead had to crawl out of bed, and be home in time for their pill.
"And now I can't wait, they've set the date, our sixtieth is coming, I'm told; it should be a ball, they've rented a hall at the Shady Rest Home for the Old.
"Repairs have been made on my hearing aid, my pacemaker's been turned up on high; my wheelchair is oiled, and my teeth have been boiled, and I've bought a new wig and glass eye.
"I'm feeling quite hearty, and I'm ready to party, I'm gonna dance 'til dawn's early light; it'll be lots of fun, but I just hope that there's one other person who can make it that night."
Laughter's good for your health. Maybe it'll get you to your 60th reunion!
One last thought, as always, please be kind to each other. The world needs more kindness.

I hate charity. It shouldn't be necessary. A society should be able to care for it's less fortunate without good-hearted people donating their hard earned bucks while some unscrupulous barstuds game the system and bath in champaign…
The odds are somewhere around 175,000,000 to one.
For the total jackpot, yes.
Take a hint, start the Salvation Army lottery.
The only reason to buy a ticket is to win the total jackpot, isn't it?
Where is the line of libs to pay down the national debt? After all they're yelling to tax someone else to pay it down. There are even liberals here who want to give their paycheck to the govt. Stand up libs! This is your chance. The paltry sum that has been collected isn't even worth mentioning.
So you want the most inefficient thing on this planet to take care of charity. You're insane, the government has no business taking money from tax payers for charity.

Mauritz Frederik Hendrik de Haas (1832–1895)
Mauritz F. De Haas was a talented marine artist who attracted considerable attention in the late nineteenth century along with his older brother William de Haas. Born in Holland, de Haas studied at The Hague and sold paintings to the Queen of Holland before immigrating to America in 1859. After settling in New York, he was commissioned by Admiral Farragut to paint naval scenes of the Civil War, and he soon gained prominence for his ability to portray the sea in a dramatic light. He exhibited at the Boston Art Club, the National Academy of Design, and the Brooklyn Art Association, as well as the Chicago Columbian Exhibition of 1893 and the Paris Exposition of 1889. Today, his work is counted among the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the New York Historical Society, and the National Academy of Design Museum.

Hi yall -- Thanks for helping me understand this problem. With big apologies in advance for my poor understanding and use of proper language here.
We have a large rectangular mirror centered on the wall above a single sink set into a vanity of sorts (old sideboard). Trouble is there are two -- what do I call them? -- recessed tins (recessed into the wall) with wires capped off in them in the wall above the mirror. Basically, this is a junction box perhaps? I mean, wires come together here and go out elsewhere, so I'm thinking "junction box"...? Whatever the right word for these is (they're circular, not a "box"), they're clearly designed to be covered up by a bathroom light wallplate. However they're not centered above the mirror. Please help me to understand my options. 1. Legally, I think we're not really supposed to plaster one of the "tins" over; I think we're supposed to put an (ugly) plate there if we don't hook it up to a light -- is this correct (I know, probably jurisdictional, but is it plausible at least)? Our inspector's gone; how stupid would it be to just plaster one of these (unused and likely unusable) holes over anyway? Is this a real safety concern or something one could get away with doing? 2. I see some lighting companies sell bathroom lights specifically with longer wallplates -- could one of these work using just the one "tin" that is offset left of center about 6"? I'd need a wallplate at least 18" or so I think to center above the mirror, and then the power source would be behind the wallplate off to the left -- is this doable? That is, hook-up-able (potentially, or are these things designed to hook up symmetrically around a power source)? 3. Can I mount a track light on a wall like this, perhaps across both "tins"/power supplies/power source (sorry, I haven't got the right language again)? Could this obviate the need to cover up one "tin"? That is, could a track light, presuming it is OK to mount on a wall, be installed using two power sources like this? Or ... maybe if all that's needed is a plate for the "tin", a track light could essentially just cover up the "tin" the way a plate would so it wouldn't matter whether the second power source were hooked in? Thanks for taking a stab at these questions. I know my language is lame and my understanding worse. Any ideas anyone might have of how to deal with this I'd really appreciate. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The box should be accessible and not hidde with plaster. However, that hasn't stopped people from hiding things. Ultimately, the deed will come to light some day. Get an electrician in to figure out the circuitry. The boxes could be on the same circuit (in series) and meant to provide 2 mounting locations for 2 lights. |
Hi David - thanks for the reply. Is it unsafe to hide the box? The boxes are on the same circuit; this I know. And an electrician did this anyway, fairly recently; I'm very positive of this. So yes, they are intended to provide 2 mounting locations for two lights -- but they're fairly severely off-center. I'm wondering what allowances I can use, how to make this up, etc. How to deal with the problem. |
It is more of a code issue. It might be possible to mount a wide track spanning both boxes, though it may not suit your decor. If you intend to stay for quite a while, it might be worthwhile to get it done right. |

With February being Teen Dating Violence Month, the issue of dating violence has been brought to the forefront, and the stats which several private and governmental agencies have compiled regarding this issue are eye-opening.
For example, one in three girls in the U.S. are the victims of physical, emotional or verbal abuse at the hands of a boyfriend, according to the National Council on Crime and Delinquency Focus.
Here in Grayson County, dating violence has been an issue, but through localized education, the instances of violence and abuse directed toward teen girls seems to be on the decline.
"Most of the stuff I dealt with in dating violence was when I was a (Kentucky State) Trooper," said Norman Chaffins, the Leitchfield Police Department's liaison with Grayson County Schools, and former State Trooper. "I worked several cases here at the high school where a boy and girl were dating, and they found themselves in a sexual situation, (and) essentially the boy would force himself on the girl. I think girls need to know that no means no, it doesn't mean maybe, or maybe later, it means no."
Many times, though, young girls, instead of saying no, will cooperate with their boyfriends even though they aren't receptive to the boy's advances.
"(The girls) think, just because they are dating the person that they can't speak up about it, and I think that's where the problem comes in," Chaffins said. "These teenage girls sometimes feel obligated to do what the boy says they need to do. They don't realize that just because they are dating, they can still say no. I think girls (and boys) need to know that no means no, it doesn't mean maybe, or maybe later, it means no."
Frighteningly, one-quarter of high school girls have been the victim of physical or sexual abuse, or date rape, according to the Commonwealth Fund Survey for the Health of Adolescent Girls. But here in Grayson County the reported instances of physical coercion directed at girls seems to be dropping.
"I haven't worked anything since I've been here at the high school (since September), but I know that for a couple of years in a row I worked several cases out here at the high school," Chaffins stated. "It was all boys who were dating girls" who were committing some type of violence against the female.
"That's another reason why I'm here at the high school as a liaison; it's for situations like that," Chaffins said. "But since I've been here, I've not had any incidents like that come up. I have many different students in my office and we have discussed issues such as that (dating violence), but as far as a girl coming and telling me, 'hey this happened,' or a student coming and telling me that this happened to a girl here at school;" that hasn't happened.
Certainly good news, but according to a Teenage Research Unlimited Study, only 33.0 percent of teens who are, or were in an abusive relationship, ever told anyone about the abuse. Something Chaffins is acutely aware of.
"I think it -- not being made aware of dating abuse recently -- doesn't necessarily mean it's not happening," Chaffins explained.
Dating violence education, though, has been a key factor in raising awareness among teens about violence in a dating relationship in the Grayson County School System.
"I think that we are trying to educate as much as possible," Chaffins said. "Most of the education we've done is in the classroom with teachers. It seems like once that awareness, and once people began to know more about it (dating violence), and girls starting realizing that hey, this is happening to me and this needs to stop. I think once they became more educated, they started realizing it does happen here. (And since the students have been educated about this issue) we've seen less and less occurrence of that here at the school."
The National Resource Center for Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention offers the following information and tips regarding teen dating violence:
What Does Dating Violence Look Like
Teens and young adults experience the same types of abuse in relationships as adults. This can include:
- Physical Abuse: Any intentional use of physical force with the intent to cause fear or injury, like hitting, shoving, biting, strangling, kicking or using a weapon.
- Verbal or Emotional Abuse: Non-physical behaviors such as threats, insults, constant monitoring, humiliation, intimidation, isolation or stalking.
- Sexual Abuse: Any action that impacts a person's ability to control their sexual activity or the circumstances in which sexual activity occurs, including rape, coercion or restricting access to birth control.
- Digital Abuse: Use of technologies and/or social media networking to intimidate, harass or threaten a current or ex-dating partner. This could include demanding passwords, checking cell phones, cyber bullying, sexting, excessive or threatening texts or stalking on Facebook or other social media.
- Checking your cell phone or email without permission
- Constantly putting you down
- Extreme jealousy or insecurity
- Explosive temper
- Isolating you from family or friends
- Making false accusations
- Mood swings
- Physically hurting you in any way
- Possessiveness
- Telling you what to do

The former Chief Minister had asked Nehru if Centre would give State a share in NLC profits
It may be just a coincidence, but one wish of former Chief Minister K. Kamaraj became a reality on his 110th birth anniversary on Monday – the Central authorities agreeing to Chief Minister Jayalalithaa's proposal of buying five per cent stake in the Neyveli Lignite Corporation (NLC).
In May 1957, at a function to mark the inauguration of the Neyveli project, Kamaraj interjected while Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru was addressing the function, according to Congress leader A. Gopanna in his well-researched work in Tamil titled "Kamaraj – An Era" five years ago.
Kamaraj wanted to know whether the Centre would give a share in profits to the State government. Nehru replied that this issue would be taken up when the occasion arose.
By then, the Union government had decided to implement the project as its own. This was why the query came from Kamaraj, whose record of remaining in office as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister for an unbroken spell of nine years (1954-1963) remains intact.
From the beginning, the Neyveli project, which owes its origins to a group of great men of integrity and commitment to the public well-being, including Kamaraj, was conceived as an integrated scheme of lignite mining and electricity generation. But, in the years immediately after Independence, power production was regarded in certain quarters as one of the functions of the States despite the subject 'Electricity' figuring in Concurrent List of the Constitution.
It was against this backdrop that one had to view the Union Planning Commission's opposition at that time to the Tamil Nadu government's proposal that the Neyveli project be implemented as a Central scheme. While the Commission took the stand that the project was, in effect, meant for electricity production and the State government was free to execute it, the State's position was that the project involved mining of a major mineral, which fell within the domain of the Centre.
The second-in-command of Kamaraj's Cabinet, C. Subramaniam, had even walked out of a meeting with the Planning Commission authorities, as narrated in Subramaniam's memoirs, "Hand of Destiny" – Volume I (page 310).
It was left to Kamaraj to prevail upon Nehru to agree to his government's proposal. This was acknowledged by Nehru himself in the inaugural event of the Neyveli project, according to Gopanna. Over the last 56 years, Neyveli has become an important hub of power generation in the northern part of the State.
Its three power plants can generate 2,490 MW and lignite mines 28.5 million tonnes per annum.

I swore to myself that this year I would be more restrained with my plant purchases, but I still spent way too much on annuals. I have a large front porch and a small back yard that nevertheless does have room for hanging baskets and a large planter, so I'm vulnerable to temptation.
I had one blindingly obvious brainstorm for plant recycling last fall, when I noticed the big sweet potatoes that had developed during the summer underneath the picturesque chartreuse leaves that form such nice colorful trailing vines. I kept the potatoes and re-rooted them, and this summer I've had nice colorful trailing chartreuse vines for free. So now I'm wondering if you frugal gardeners out there have suggestions for similar re-use of other annuals. I don't have a whole lot of sunny room indoors at my place, so I can't bring all the plants in and baby them through the winter. I've seen descriptions of keeping geraniums over the winter by hanging them upside down in a cool place (I think), but have never tried it, and that's the kind of idea I'm looking for. Has anyone successfully done such a thing with geraniums, and do you have suggestions for what to do with other plants? I'm thinking my canna lilies, small begonias, creeping charlie, vinca, and dusty miller might be candidates -- maybe even the pansies in my fence planters?. I could make some room for pots in my one sunny place, but they'd have to have good potential for surviving indoors until the warm weather comes around again. Thanks for any suggestions you may have! |

You can always take cuttings from mints & coleus; many plants will do well if you keep them in sunny windows through the winter. Best luck, & have fun! |
I overwintered a fibrous begonia as a houseplant. It wasn't very pretty due to lack of proper light, but once the nice weather was here and I put it outside, it really got lush, and I took cuttings from it for different areas. I'll be doing it again this winter. I've read about the geraniums too, and this year I will be trying to keep one or two that a friend is going to give me. I told her it killed me to see her buy them and toss them at the end of the season. I got my begonia from her last fall. Don't forget to save seed from some of your flowers. I don't know if your petunias would come true, but you might like what you get. |
Hi, last year I was given the most beautiful and healthy geranium and couldn't bare letting it die. I took several cuttings and rooted them in water, planted in small pots when the roots were grown out. This year I have several plants from this one and they did great. I usually root coleus as well. Didn't buy any of either this year. And sometimes at Christmas I have red geraniums in bloom in my southeastern bay window. This year I am taking in my Mandevilla to winter over. I tend to stay with reds and whites so that they go with the winter decor. Enjoy. |

Check out the wintersowing forum! I did almost EVERYTHING from seed this year, and plan on saving as much seed from those plants as possible to grow for next year. I'm hoping eventually I won't need to buy plants, especially with the seed trading forum here. It's been a lost of fun! Leisa |
