In my first-year Intro to English Lit course, we were given the option of writing an essay on a sonnet, or writing a sonnet. I foolishly chose to write a sonnet (which incorporated the word "dastardly" and became an acrostic sonnet about my most recent ex, with a hidden message reading "my love is a weeny").
Anyway, I found this sonnet again recently, and wanted to share with you the limerick I had written as a preface of sorts to my poetic oeuvre: (ahem) A rock I sat upon it

The momentum from a week ago lasted for almost one quarter Friday night.
One week after Vista Grande's most impressive outing of the season, a shutout win over Rio Rico, the Spartans traded defensive punches with host Campo Verde for 11 1/2 minutes before blinking. As soon as Gabe Ogbonnaya broke loose on a 49-yard touchdown gallop, the pendulum swung in the Coyotes' direction and stayed that way the rest of the game in a 42-7 Campo Verde win.
"Defense, special teams and scoring," Campo Verde coach Max Ragsdale said, describing the team's priorities. "Our defense played well. They do so many formation changes that your personnel needs to pay attention always. We hang our hat on our defense."
Campo Verde's defense was so effective that Vista Grande didn't get its third first down until there were two minutes remaining in the third quarter. By then, the Spartans (2-8) trailed 35-0. They were unable to establish any offensive rhythm, finishing with 115 total yards. The Coyotes were especially stingy with their run defense, yielding 56 yards on 40 carries.
Finton Connoly and Josh Golden led a swarming defense that stuffed seven first-half Vista Grande offensive plays for negative yardage. After being held scoreless until Ogbonnaya's long TD run with 32 seconds left in the first quarter, Campo Verde scored three second-quarter touchdowns to surge to a 28-0 halftime advantage.
Ogbonnaya scored the Coyotes' second touchdown on a 28-yard run. Luke Pineda added two second-quarter touchdowns through the air. After Campo Verde extended the lead to 35-0 in the third quarter, Vista Grande was able to put together a 12-play, 73-yard drive capped by Patrick Amerson hooking up with Aaron Soto on a 22-yard scoring play. And then Erick Belcher took the ensuing kickoff 100 yards for the final score of the game.
"They are a well-coached team, physical and fast," Vista Grande coach Carlo Hernandez said. "They are disciplined with their assignments and are football wise.
"We knew it was going to be tough. But it was the story of our season: (lack of) execution and fundamental football. We weren't able to put it together. They pinned their ears back early and fired off the ball. They flew around, and we couldn't do much against them."
The Spartans were able to hold their own defensively at the start, forcing the Coyotes to punt on their first two possessions. When Campo Verde was finally able to put a drive together, the Coyotes were stifled when Leo Lopez pounced on a fumble. The turnover occurred at the Vista Grande 7, and the Spartans were unable to get a first down. Thus field position swung back in the Coyotes' favor, and Campo Verde got its offense on track at that point.
Ogbonnaya finished with 10 carries for 137 yards for the Coyotes, who were balanced with 217 rushing and 207 passing yards.
Matt Leija was Vista Grande's best offensive weapon with 17 carries for 58 yards. Amerson was accurate with the short toss, completing 9 of 14 passes for 59 yards.
But the Spartans ran 54 plays from scrimmage and barely got above 2 yards per play against a team that held seven of its opponents to 14 points or less this season.
The Coyotes enter the playoffs on a three-game winning streak in which they have yielded a total of 16 points. Vista Grande heads into the offseason hoping to find more offense to complement a young defense that figures to be the team's strength in 2013.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is REX-Prison Grad!
Facts about REX-Prison Grad
- Breed: Shepherd (Unknown Type) Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
REX-Prison Grad's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Look at the photo of Rex and you will fall in love instantly. He is a one year old Shepherd mix. Rex was surrendered to the shelter because his family moved and couldn't take him with them. Rex was recently trained at the Grafton Correctional Facility and adopted. His family brought him back to the shelter because he was too active for them and he was crated for sometimes 8-10 hours a day. Rex knows his basic commands and obedience. He will thrive with a dog savvy owner. He is house trained. This fellow is a great car rider and is fine with other dogs and cats. He has a high energy level and can jump the fence at Friendship. Rex would love to be a member of an active family or someone's running partner. He needs lots of exercise and a fenced in yard wouldn't hurt either. He loves people young and old and he would love to finally find his forever home.
If you have kids and/or another dog in your family and are interested in adopting a Friendship dog please bring them with you for a meet and greet. No appointment is necessary. Stop by anytime during regular business hours.
Other Pets at Friendship APL of Lorain County
Why Adoption is a Great Option
REX-Prison Grad, a Elyria Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Shepherd (Unknown Type) for sale in Elyria, or seeking a Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog from a breeder in Elyria.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Elyria already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Elyria breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Shepherd (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Shepherd (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Elyria paves the way for another one to be saved.

This message was just posted to Eric Church's website so I thought I'd pass it along.
Please beware of scalper sites before you purchase tickets for any Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour dates. We've just been made aware of a site that is attempting to sell tickets for the Charlotte, NC show in November. As of today, tickets are NOT YET on sale for this show. That site will most likely attempt to overcharge you for tickets with no guarantee of being able to get those tickets to you.
You don't have to purchase tickets from scalpers to be screwed since tickets are always so dang expensive anymore, but the best bet in this case is to just go to Eric's website and follow the "purchase tickets" links there.
When you purchase tickets that way, when you get screwed over you'll at least know what you've purchased is legal and legit. :0)

- Bond measure is first of many challenges facing Marin General Hospital
The state has extended by 10 years, to 2030, its deadline for Marin General Hospital to build a new, earthquake-safe complex.
Hospital officials say the need for Marin General to build a new, state-of-the-art hospital as soon as possible remains despite the extension.
"We really need to bring the hospital into the 21st century; so much of the facility is outdated," said Jennifer Rienks, president of the Marin Healthcare District board. The publicly elected board oversees Marin General, the county's largest hospital and only official trauma center.
The environmental impact report of a new $500 million complex at the site of the existing hospital in Greenbrae will go to the Marin Healthcare District board in May for approval. The healthcare district plans to ask voters in November to approve a general obligation bond to raise about $350 million for the project. If the bond passes, property owners would pay an additional $15 to $25 per $100,000 of assessed value.
But Bill Rothman of Belvedere, a former district board member, said the seismic safety extension may make winning support for the bond measure tougher, especially with voters who are Kaiser Permanente members and rely on Marin General only for trauma care.
"I think it could create a political problem," Rothman said. "It's one thing to say we would like you to pay additional taxes even though you are not a user of Marin General Hospital, because if you don't the hospital is going to close. It's quite another when there is no emergency situation."
Rothman noted that one of the original rationales for a tax measure was that the new management of the hospital, after the takeover from Sutter Health, would lack the time to establish the financial track record necessary to rely solely on revenue bonds. Revenue bonds would be secured by the hospital's future earnings. Rothman said he agrees, however, that the hospital needs to be modernized.
The deadline extension is the fourth since a state law requiring seismic safety enhancements was signed into law in 1994 after the Northridge earthquake. Marin General was able to secure this latest 10-year extension by taking advantage of a state offer to reassess the seismic risk of its buildings using an updated methodology. The extension was granted after extensive materials testing indicated the existing buildings are not likely to collapse in an earthquake, as initially thought.
Rienks, however, said, "Even if there was no seismic mandate, we'd still need to replace the hospital because it is a 50-year-old building, and medicine has changed so much."
Jon Friedenberg, Marin General's chief fund and business development officer, said eliminating the need for some patients to share rooms is just one of many changes that need to be made.
He said the size of patient rooms needs to be expanded to provide more space for in-room treatment and visiting family members. Friedenberg said studies have demonstrated that patients who get more support from family get well faster.
"If you want to encourage family members to spend more time in the hospital with their loved one, there has to be room for them," he said.
In addition, Friedenberg said, larger operating rooms are needed to utilize innovative new procedures that require additional medical equipment and staff members.
And both Rienks and Friedenberg said a state-of-the-art complex is key to attracting and retaining talented young doctors to work at the hospital.
Kurt Salmon Associates, a management consulting firm that the Marin Healthcare District board hired in 2007 to assess its strategic options, said construction of a new complex would be key to the hospital's future viability.
Larry Tramutola, the Oakland-based political consultant Marin General has hired to advise it on its bond campaign, said he doubts the deadline extension will discourage district residents from voting for the bond measure. Tramutola pointed out that the deadline extension delays the mandate to build a new hospital, but it doesn't eliminate it.
"Even if we delayed this 10 years," Tramutola said, "the costs 10 years from now are going to be so much greater that it is better for us to do it right now."

3XN's New Museum of Liverpool Runs On An Energy Efficient Trigeneration Plant
Posted By Bridgette Meinhold On July 14, 2011 @ 11:55 am In Architecture,carousel showcase,News,Sustainable Building | No Comments
The three story building is characterized by opposing volumes stretching out towards the harbor. Huge picture windows take in the views of both the city and the harbor and a large spiraling staircase in the center visually connects all the levels together. The facade is composed of 5,700 square meters of natural Jura stone attached to the building as a rain screen [6] to improve durability and resistance to the salty air. The stonework was laid in a specific pattern, which helped to improve efficiency in the amount of materials used in the façade's design, resulting in less wasted material.
As part of their commitment to sustainability, the museum makes use of an energy efficient combined heat and power (CHP) system [7], to efficiently generate heat, cooling and electricity. This 'trigeneration' plant was designed by Manchester-based ENER-G [8] and will guarantee a substantial annual cost savings, while reducing CO2 emissions by 884 tonnes each year. The museum will source its power for the system from a mix of low carbon fuels and renewable energy [9]. The museum is also reported [10] to be seeking a BREEAM [11] "very good" rating to certify its sustainability strategies.
The Museum of Liverpool [3], which will tell the story of Liverpool as one of the world's great ports and its cultural influence, will open on July 19th.

Hi everyone,
I have two Black Jades that are essentially the same size since I acquired them in late March/early April. I've tried different locations, in pots and in the ground. One currently gets sun from 8am to 2:00 another from 9am to 6pm, but I'm careful not let its terracotta pot get overheated... These plants don't grow, but they don't die either. There have been about 5 blooms between the two. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help. |

How much do you feed them? I have one that is about 24" high |
Hello dan. After it was safe to start fertilizing, once or twice a week with less than full strength Miracle Grow for Roses. Other plants receiving the same treatment have grown normally or better than expected. These plants are less than 6 inches tall. :-( ? |
Wait. Some roses take longer with top growth. As long as the plants are green at the top, they are growing roots. Be patient, many roses take up to 3 years to become completely established. |
Thanks diane_nj. I will wait as suggested. ( I was ready to throw in the towel.) I was wondering if their might be something particular about Black Jade. Maybe I need to do something different. |
- Posted by pelicanhead 10 southern Ca (My Page) on Fri, Oct 17, 08 at 17:03
I have one I've had for probably 10 years, it's been very small. Finally, this year it has taken off. I don't know why, I am doing the same as every other year. |
Thanks pelicanhead, Your Black Jade sounds like a very slow grower indeed. That's so odd that after 10 years it suddenly takes off! I'm encouraged. |
- Posted by dan_keil_cr Illinois z5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Nov 3, 08 at 16:17
When you planted them did you check to see if the roots were circling around the pot? Sometimes not spreading the roots out will cause slow growth. |
thanks dan, I think I spread the roots sufficiently, giving them the same treatment as I gave other rose roots. It seems the lack of growth only happens with Black Jade. When I moved them from pot to earth or vice versa, I noticed there had not been significant root growth either. If these two plants survive the winter, I hope to see growth next spring. Maybe I should try root stimulator or plant hormones next year? |
'Black Jade' has never been a strong grower for me, either in the garden or the greenhouse. Frankly, I don't believe it can be coaxed into performing to my expectations no matter what I feed it or expose it to. I don't think I have ever seen a particularly attractive specimen. |
- Posted by ken-n.ga.mts (My Page) on Tue, Nov 25, 08 at 16:46
I grew Black Jade on it's own roots for a bunch of yrs. and could never get it to perform the way the other minis did. Then I made a bush on fortuniana root stock. BINGO!!!!Within 2 yrs I had a big beautiful bush. Some roses just need a little help. This one sure perked up with a good understock. |

I didn't, but had everything to make it, so I did that when we got home from his VA appointment. Years ago we had a great tartar sauce but I could never get it exactly right.

It has been a very busy day. Made two trips out to the club house to get food to put into the new refrigerator. I have been washing windows and draperies, trying to get ready for Thanksgiving. My supper was, smoked sausage, cottage cheese, pickled beets, banana cake and iced tea. Now I am going to get ready for bed, I will probably miss Survivor. Sue |
I cooked ham, cabbage and potatoes. A simple but solid meal. Shirley I hope Harry enjoys his tilapia. |

Just finished defrosting the freezer in the garage. I didn't get started until 3:45 and it took two hours! Usually I defrost it every several months and it only takes about 45 minutes but when I went to get some pizza out last night, someone hadn't completely closed the door and there was a lot of frost in there. I threw lots of stuff away. Anyway, I uncovered lots of stuff that are now in the refrigerator and we will be eating it in the next few days. Tonight we are having minestrone soup and some rolls. |
really busy today-managed to get the beets canned-they certainly look and smell good! Baked pork chops,homemade scalloped potatoes,and my version of gingered carrots. |
I've got a pot roast braising on the stove and it smells sooooo good. It's been on for about three hours; the onions, carrots, mushrooms, and potatoes will go in shortly. |
Glenda, I think if I just saw your plate, I'd be hungry. Everything you had just makes me happy thinking about it--especially the cornbread, of course. (I wonder if their's is as good as mine :-) Sue, I'd love to hear how you like your new frig. I sure would love to have one like that. Got any banana cake left? I'll be right up ;-) Shirley, you know Harry's gonna be one happy guy. But he'd be just as happy with your dinner, too. So would I!! Oh, shoot, Georgysmom, dont' you had that defrosting job? Sorry you lost food--I did too when our outside frig went funky for a while. But it was stuff we really didn't want anyway. And look at all the room you have now--plus you won't have to cook for a day or two! Bonus!! Ont Gal, your dinner sounds so good my mouth is watering! Your pickled beets remind me of my DD. When she was about 2 all she would eat is mac and cheese, cubed steak and pickled beets. (And this kid was a picky, picky eater, believe it or not.) Enjoy them this winter. Woo hoo, Rhizo, I've never put mushrooms in my pot roast before, but I think I've been missing something. Love mushrooms. What kind do you use? |

Today was my 'hunting and gathering day' AKA errands and grocery shopping~~~I like buying sliced meat/cheese for sandwiches and prepared salads from Sprouts so I can veg for the rest of the day;) |
Yum, Rhonda, your dinner sounds good. My aunt makes pickled beets every year and always gives us a few jars. We just love it. I should email her and ask her for the recipe. She's in Florida for the winter, so I'm not sure if she knows it off the top of her head. When I opened the frig there was a half-ful jar of saurkraut just begging to be used, so I fried up some sausage and kraut, boiled potatoes and broccoli. Don't look at my menu, Patti. :) |
Someone posted a pork casserole with tomatoes a few weeks ago and I made it tonight. It was a little tomatoie for me...but I used crushed tomatoes instead of the whole ones called for in the recipe. The kids seemed to like it. |

First Known Use of METAL
noun \ˈmet-əl\ (Medical Dictionary)Medical Definition of METAL
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Any of a class of substances with, to some degree, the following properties: good heat and electricity conduction, malleability, ductility, high light reflectivity, and capacity to form positive ions in solution and hydroxides rather than acids when their oxides meet water. About three-quarters of the elements are metals; these are usually fairly hard and strong crystalline (see crystal) solids with high chemical reactivity that readily form alloys with each other. Metallic properties increase from lighter to heavier elements in each vertical group of the periodic table and from right to left in each row. The most abundant metals are aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. The vast majority are found as ores rather than free. The cohesiveness of metals in a crystalline structure is attributed to metallic bonding: The atoms are packed close together, with their very mobile outermost electrons all shared throughout the structure. Metals fall into the following classifications (not mutually exclusive and most not rigidly defined): alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition elements, noble (precious) metals, platinum metals, lanthanide (rare earth) metals, actinide metals, light metals, and heavy metals. Many have essential roles in nutrition or other biochemical functions, often in trace amounts, and many are toxic as both elements and compounds (see mercury poisoning, lead poisoning).

Dario Franchitti drives 1962 Honda RA 272
Many of our readers likely weren't even born when the Honda RA 272 won the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix at the hands of American racer, Richie Ginther. The success went on to become the inspiration for the Pete Aron / Yamura storyline in the classic movie Grand Prix. We're comfortable in betting that most of you have seen that one.
Honda obviously has a rich racing history, of which the company is rightfully proud. Recently, they invited Indycar veteran Dario Franchitti to Motegi to drive the RA 272 as part of a feature for print mag Road & Track. Fortunately for the rest of us, they were able to grab some video of the Scott in action with the incredible machine.
Check out the video after the jump and head over to R & T to read Dario's account, along with some stunning images from John Lamm.

California Westside melon growers say this season should be normal despite challenges.
Atomic Torosian, managing partner and co-owner at Crown Jewels Produce Co., Fresno, Calif., said acreage is down a bit this year, partly because of the dry winter.
"Water production is less than last year, but we're OK for now. It affected production and what was planted in total acreage," Torosian said.
He cited competition from other crops as another cause for the reduced melon acreage.
Still, Torosian said, the cantaloupe market so far has seen success in the desert regions and he is optimistic that will transition to the Westside.
"They aren't finding any issues. We hope their movement success transfers to the start of our deal," he said.
He also is hopeful that this deal's prices will be higher.
"Prices were low last year. We were barely treading water," Torosian said.
Torosian said the cantaloupe and honeydew deal should begin around July Fourth and last through September, possibly even into October.
"We have cantaloupes planted to harvest from the first part of July, maybe even before the Fourth," said Jim Malanca, senior vice president and sales manager, at Westside Produce, Firebaugh, Calif.
He said last year the harvest was behind by 10 days or more, causing an unusually short July deal, with high prices.
"This year, if the weather holds out, we anticipate a more normal season," Malanca said.
Dulcinea Farms LLC, Ladera Ranch, Calif., which offers a Tuscan-style cantaloupe along with several varieties of watermelon, also is hoping for a normal year despite last year's listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupes from Colorado's Rocky Ford region.
"We didn't cut back cantaloupe acreage at all," general manager John McGuigan said.
However, the company's Tuscan-style cantaloupe is a different product from the variety that caused issues last year.
The company is running either on schedule or slightly ahead of schedule, McGuigan reported.
"It seems the season is a little ahead. We've had quite high temperatures in most growing areas now," he said.
Still, Malanca says it is too early to get a good feel for the market.
"It's still very early in the season. It's pretty hard to say what's going to happen because it's still in the ground."
This unpredictability makes it harder for companies to market and sell their product early in the deal.

Walmart Bass Fishing League - Gator
Harris Chain (Feb. 16, 2008)
Jones best boater in BFL event on Harris Chain
TAVARES, Fla. – Boater Leonard Jones of Mims, Fla., won the Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League Gator Division tournament on Harris Chain of Lakes Saturday with a five-bass catch weighing 21 pounds, 5 ounces. The victory earned Jones $4,169 and placed him one step closer to qualifying for the Lake Murray Regional Championship in Columbia, S.C., Oct. 23-25, where he could ultimately win a new 198VX Ranger boat and a Chevy truck.
Jones caught his bass flipping a worm.
Rounding out the top five boaters are Jeff Fitts of Keystone Heights, Fla. (five bass, 18-09, $2,453); Dennis Diminich of Altamonte Springs, Fla. (five bass, 18-00, $1,635); Kyle Fox of Lakeland, Fla. (five bass, 17-14, $1,145) and Todd Casidy of Kissimmee, Fla. (five bass, 16-04, $981).
Fitts took home the Boater Division Snickers Big Bass award, earning $740 for a 8-pound, 2-ounce bass.
Rick Shaver of Clermont, Fla., earned $2,453 as the co-angler winner Saturday thanks to five bass weighing 15 pounds, 14 ounces that he caught on a worm flipping grass.
Rounding out the top five co-anglers are Matthew Rhoden of Glen Saint Mary, Fla. (three bass, 15-00, $1,226); Arthur Divi of Tampa, Fla. (four bass, 11-09, $816); Ken Willits of Mt. Dora, Fla. (five bass, 10-14, $572) and Chad Dorland of Dunnellon, Fla. (five bass, 10-11, $491).
Divi earned $370 as the co-angler Big Bass winner after catching a 8-pound, 2-ounce bass he caught on a worm flipping grass.
Gator Division anglers will visit Lake Kissimmee in Lake Wales, Fla., March 8 for their third regular-season event. The division's fourth qualifying event will be held on Harris Chain of Lakes in Tavares, April 5. A two-day Super Tournament, the division's fifth and final event, will be held on the St. John's River in Patatka, Fla., Sept. 20-21.
Following the end of regular-season competition, the top 40 boaters and 40 co-anglers based on year-end points standings in the division will advance to the no-entry-fee Lake Murray Regional Championship where they will compete against top qualifiers from three other BFL divisions. At the Regional Championship boaters will fish for a new Ranger boat and Chevy truck and co-anglers will fish for a new Ranger boat. The top six boaters and top six co-anglers at the Regional Championship will also advance to the All-American presented by Chevy. With a total purse of $1 million, a potential $140,000 cash prize going to the winning boater and as much as $70,000 going to the winning co-angler, the All-American is one of the most prestigious and lucrative events in bass fishing. The winning boater and winning co-angler at the All-American also advance to the no-entry-fee $2 million Forrest Wood Cup. This event, featuring a top award of $1 million, is the sport's biggest championship.
Tournament anglers aren't the only ones winning big this season. With the introduction of FLW Fantasy Fishing, FLW Outdoors offers anyone the opportunity to enter for their chance to land the catch of a lifetime with the opportunity to win $7.3 million in cash and prizes.

Congenital nephrotic syndrome
Congenital nephrotic syndrome
Congenital nephrotic syndrome is a disorder passed down through families in which a baby develops protein in the urine and swelling of the body. Congenital means it is present from birth. However, this group of disorders also includes nephrotic syndrome that occurs in the first 3 months of life.
See also: Nephrotic syndrome
Alternative Names
Nephrotic syndrome - congenital
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Congenital nephrotic syndrome is a very rare form of nephrotic syndrome. It occurs mostly in families of Finnish origin and develops shortly after birth. It is inherited, which means it is passed down through families.
Children with this disorder have an abnormal form of a protein called nephrin. The kidney's filters (glomeruli) need this protein to function normally.
- Cough
- Decreased urine output
- Foamy appearance of urine
- Low birth weight
- Poor appetite
- Swelling (total body)
Signs and tests
An ultrasound done on the pregnant mother before birth may show a larger-than-normal placenta. The placenta is the organ that develops during pregnancy to feed the growing baby.
Pregnant mothers may have a screening test done during pregnancy to check for this condition. The test looks for higher-than-normal levels of alpha-fetoprotein in a sample of amniotic fluid. Genetic tests should be used to confirm the diagnosis if the screening test is positive.
After birth, the infant will show signs of severe fluid retention and swelling. The health care provider will hear abnormal sounds when listening to the baby's heart and lungs with a stethoscope. Blood pressure may be high. There may be signs of malnutrition.
A urinalysis reveals fat and large amounts of protein in the urine. Total protein in the blood may be low.
Early and aggressive treatment is needed to control this disorder.
Treatment may involve:
- Antibiotics to control infections
- Blood pressure medicines called ACE inhibitors and ARBs to reduce the amount of protein leaking into the urine
- Diuretics ("water pills") to remove excess fluid
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as indomethacin to reduce the amount of protein leaking into the urine
Fluids may be limited to help control swelling.
The health care provider may recommend removing the kidneys to stop protein loss. This may be followed by dialysis or a kidney transplant.
Expectations (prognosis)
The disorder often leads to infection, malnutrition, and kidney failure. It can lead to death by age 5, and many children die within the first year. Congenital nephrotic syndrome may be controlled in some cases with early and aggressive treatment, including an early kidney transplant.
- Acute kidney failure
- Blood clots
- Chronic kidney failure
- End-stage kidney disease
- Frequent, severe infections
- Malnutrition and related diseases
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if your child has symptoms of congenital nephrotic syndrome.

I love the Great River Shakespeare Festival! I love everything about it, as does my husband, Bruce. Bruce is an athlete. He never paid much attention to Shakespeare or theater in general, for that matter. A few years ago, he would have said he didnt care for Shakespeare, but ever the supportive husband, he came with me to a few performances. He was impressed. He loved it. He is now one of the Festivals greatest fans.
We agree that we have to support the things we love. If we dont, they wont be here. Winona is blessed with a number of generous benefactors families and individuals that step up again and again, and businesses, too, who we all know to be constant contributors. But the rest of us need to give, too. This is our town. It will be what we make it to be.
A few years ago, I met up with an old friend at a class reunion. For many years he had lived in a large city. I was lamenting about a local retail store that had gone out of business. I didnt shop there enough! I said. They had great merchandise, but often I didnt think of them and went to the big, out of town stores! I feel very bad about this! Now theyre gone, and there is another hole on Third Street!
He looked at me in amazement. He said, I can honestly say that I have never, once, felt any guilt or responsibility for the failure of anything in my town. It never occurs to me that it has anything to do with me. I was equally amazed. I said, I feel responsible for everything that happens in Winona. I know I am only one person, but I think it all has to do with me.
Its all about living in a small town and loving it. Sometimes it feels like a burden.
There is so much to do so many great, local causes that need supporting. When we lose something valuable, I feel that somehow it is partly my fault. But it is also an opportunity because we know that if we do step up, all of us together, we can make things happen. Contributing to the Shakespeare Festivals Setting the Stage campaign is one such opportunity.
Are there 1,000 of us who could pledge $150.00 per year for three years? Are there 200 people who could pledge $1,000.00 per year for three years? If so, it would make a tremendous, maybe a critical difference. My husband and I have already made our three-year pledge. We hope many others will, too.
The Great River Shakespeare Festival deserves our support. It has helped to place Winona on the map as an arts destination. It enlivens our community. It helps our economy in measurable ways. It enriches the education of our children. And it is also a whole lot of fun.
For more information about the Great River Shakespeare Festival and to contribute to its Setting the Stage campaign, visit the websites at http://grsf.org and http://grsf.org/setting-the-stage

This Time We're Taking the Whole Planet With UsPosted on Mar 7, 2011
By Chris Hedges (Page 3) The desperate islanders developed a belief system that posited that the erected stone gods, the moai, would come to life and save them from disaster. This last retreat into magic characterizes all societies that fall into terminal decline. It is a frantic response to loss of control as well as despair and powerlessness. This desperate retreat into magic led to the Cherokee ghost dance, the doomed Taki Onqoy revolt against the Spanish invaders in Peru, and the Aztec prophecies of the 1530s. Civilizations in the last moments embrace a total severance from reality, a reality that becomes too bleak to be absorbed. The modern belief by evangelical Christians in the rapture, which does not exist in biblical literature, is no less fantastic, one that at once allows for the denial of global warming and of evolution and the absurd idea that the righteous will all be saved—floating naked into heaven at the end of time. The faith that science and technology, which are morally neutral and serve human ambitions, will make the world whole again is no less delusional. We offer up our magical thinking in secular as well as religious form. We think we have somehow escaped from the foibles of the past. We are certain that we are wiser and greater than those who went before us. We trust naively in the inevitability of our own salvation. And those who cater to this false hope, especially as things deteriorate, receive our adulation and praise. We in the United States, only 5 percent of the world's population, are outraged if anyone tries to tell us we don't have a divine right to levels of consumption that squander 25 percent of the world's energy. President Jimmy Carter, when he suggested that such consumption was probably not beneficial, became a figure of national ridicule. The worse it gets the more we demand illusionary Ronald Reagan happy talk. Those willing to cater to fantasy and self-delusion are, because they make us politically passive, lavishly funded and promoted by corporate and oligarchic forces. And by the very end we are joyfully led over the cliff by simpletons and lunatics, many of whom appear to be lining up for the Republican presidential nomination. "Are the events of three hundred years ago on a small remote island of any significance to the world at large?" Bahn and Flenley ask. "We believe they are. We consider that Easter Island was a microcosm which provides a model for the whole planet. Like the Earth, Easter Island was an isolated system. The people there believed that they were the only survivors on Earth, all other land having sunk beneath the sea. They carried out for us the experiment of permitting unrestricted population growth, profligate use of resources, destruction of the environment and boundless confidence in their religion to take care of the future. The result was an ecological disaster leading to a population crash. ... Do we have to repeat the experiment on this grand scale? Do we have to be as cynical as Henry Ford and say 'History is bunk'? Would it not be more sensible to learn the lesson of Easter Island history, and apply it to the Earth Island on which we live?" Advertisement Square, Site wide This time when we go down it will be global. There are no new lands to pillage, no new peoples to exploit. Technology, which has obliterated the constraints of time and space, has turned our global village into a global death trap. The fate of Easter Island will be writ large across the broad expanse of planet Earth. Chris Hedges is a weekly Truthdig columnist and a fellow at The Nation Institute. His newest book is "Death of the Liberal Class."

But, maybe all the fallout messages will quickly bring about some positive change. Thanks Chris.

By A. Benway, March 7, 2011 at 12:19 pm Link to this comment Good ol' Chris! Chaos makes detailed prediction impossible, and small unpredictable events can create large outcomes - also unpredictable. Chris is spot on, and we all, critters and plants - self-aware life - may soon be gone, but history also illustrates the "bolt from the blue" that changes everything. Lets us assume, for example, that a plague dispatches 90 % of the human population in six months, starting now… Consider the new post hoc reality… There do not seem to be any outcomes that are nice. None at all. But some outcomes are better than others. And in the last ice-age humanity was reduced to about 1,000 persons…
By gustro, March 7, 2011 at 12:16 pm Link to this comment Noticed an error; on page 2, Chris means to say carbon is at 429 ppm, not 329.
By RobertH, March 7, 2011 at 12:16 pm Link to this comment As always, Hedges's analysis is disturbing and ominous. However, he states greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere are at 329 parts per million; they haven't been that low since October of 1976. Currently (January of 2011) we're at 391 ppm for CO2 alone without considering the impact of human-generated methane and ozone, which also contribute greatly to climate forcing.

Thousands of indigenous cultures had(until they were wiped out by the civilized) and have (the scarce few that remain) learned perfectly well how to live sustainably on their land.

By Ira Weisberg, March 7, 2011 at 8:23 am Link to this comment What a shame… that Chris Hedges is rapidly becoming the Glenn Beck of the left.

We're lucky to live in a city with everything you could ever want in the way of great bars and restaurants, but the Portland cocktail scene just got a little more interesting with the opening of The Secret Society. Located in a tiny room in the upstairs of an historic ballroom, the Secret Society does make you feel like you're stumbling onto a hidden gem. "No part of the business is visible from the street," says owner Matt Johnson. "We have a recording studio, a beautiful ballroom that holds 260 people and now a swanky cocktail lounge, and the best part is that you would never know that just walking by. It's such a great surprise once you step inside and find out what's waiting at the top of the stairs."
Dark wood and cushy seating make for a cozy atmosphere, and the cocktails pay tribute to some of the best of the classics, all served in lovely vintage glasses. "I decided to approach the cocktails with more of a revivalist or preservationist philosophy," says Johnson. On a recent night, we sampled a classic daiquiri, a Pegu Club, a Sazerac and a Green Flash. They were all delicious, but The Green Flash was definitely a crowd-pleaser, so we thought we'd share the recipe, which Johnson says he found in Mittie Hellmich's Ultimate Bar Book and adapted with a couple of tweaks (i.e., a sugar cube instead of simple syrup).
The Green Flash
1 1/2 oz. light rum
3/4 oz. Green Chartreuse
3/4 oz. fresh lime juice
1 sugar cube
Soda Water
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: cocktail
Shake ingredients, making sure to dissolve the sugar cube. Strain into a glass and top with a splash of soda water.

Marina Development
The increasing interest in marine recreation continues to put pressure on the maritime resources to service this industry through the requirement to provide more berthing opportunities around the coastline of both the UK and overseas. This growth is being considered through the expansion of existing marinas and development of new facilities.
ABPmer has a strong portfolio of expertise in marina projects. Typically, studies require a combination of our various in-house skills ranging from desktop assessment to environmental evaluation and numerical modelling.
Key Services:
- Data collection & analysis
- Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)
- Feasibility studies
- GIS mapping
- Hydrographic surveys and investigations
- Numerical model studies
Selected Experience:
Review of Potential Marina Sedimentation Issues: Falmouth Harbour - RPS
A new marina facility was being proposed within Falmouth Harbour. The design of the marina included an outer floating breakwater with the intention of offering increased shelter for moored yachts. As part of the consenting arrangements for the marina a consideration of potential effects on the existing siltation regime is required. RPS Planning & Development requested ABPmer to undertake a desk based study to consider impacts of the proposal. ABPmer was subsequently commissioned by the Bailey Group to undertake sediment mobility and siltation studies to support the proposed Falmouth Marina development. The methodology involved a field survey, sediment mobility and siltation analysis and numerical modelling.
Medina Yachting Village - Rolf Judd Planning
ABPmer was commissioned by Rolf Judd Planning to provide hydrodynamic modelling with an assessment of deep water characteristics for the marine elements of the Environmental Impact Assessment for the Medina Yachting Village. Additionally, ABPmer was commissioned by Donaldsons to provide environmental impact assessment to enable Competent Authorities to undertake an Appropriate Assessment for the Medina Yachting Village development in accordance with the Conservation (Natural Habitats &c) Regulations, 1994.
Swanwick Marina Assessment - URS Corporation Ltd
ABPmer was commissioned by URS Corporation Ltd to undertake a qualitative desk based assessment on the effects on the hydrographic regime of the River Hamble Estuary of the marine works related to the redevelopment of Swanwick Marina
