Acute cholecystitis
Acute cholecystitis
Acute cholecystitis is a sudden inflammation of the gallbladder that causes severe abdominal pain.
See also: Chronic cholecystitis
Alternative Names
Cholecystitis - acute
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
In 90% of cases, acute cholecystitis is caused by gallstones in the gallbladder. Other causes include severe illness and (rarely) tumors of the gallbladder.
Acute cholecystitis occurs when bile becomes trapped in the gallbladder. The buildup of bile causes irritation and pressure in the gallbladder. This can lead to infection and a hole (perforation) in the organ.
Gallstones occur more often in women than men. Gallstones become more common with age in both sexes. Native Americans and Hispanics have a higher rate of gallstones than most other people.
The main symptom is pain in the upper right side or upper middle of the abdomen. The pain may:
- Be sharp, cramping, or dull
- Be steady
- Spread to the back or below the right shoulder blade
Other symptoms that may occur include:
- Clay-colored stools
- Fever
- Nausea and vomiting
- Yellowing of skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice)
Signs and tests
A physical exam will show that your abdomen is tender to the touch.
Your doctor may order the following blood tests:
- Amylase and lipase
- Bilirubin
- Complete blood count (CBC) -- may show a higher than normal white blood cell count
- Liver function tests
Imaging tests that can show gallstones or inflammation include:
- Abdominal ultrasound
- Abdominal CT scan
- Abdominal x-ray
- Oral cholecystogram
- Gallbladder radionuclide scan
Seek immediate medical attention for severe abdominal pain.
In the emergency room, patients with acute cholecystitis are given fluids through a vein and antibiotics to fight infection.
Although cholecystitis may clear up on its own, surgery to remove the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is usually needed when gallstones are present. Surgery may be done as soon as possible; however, some patients will not need surgery right away.
Nonsurgical treatment includes:
- Antibiotics to fight infection
- Low-fat diet (when food can be tolerated)
- Pain medicines
You may need emergency surgery if you have gangrene (tissue death), perforation, pancreatitis, or inflammation of the common bile duct.
In very ill patients, a tube may be placed through the skin to drain the gallbladder until the patient gets better and can have surgery.
See also: Gallstones - discharge
Expectations (prognosis)
Patients who have surgery to remove the gallbladder usually do very well.
- Empyema (pus in the gallbladder)
- Gangrene (tissue death) of the gallbladder
- Injury to the bile ducts draining the liver (an occasional complication of cholecystectomy)
- Pancreatitis
- Peritonitis (inflammation of the lining of the abdomen)
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if:
- Severe abdominal pain does not go away
- Symptoms of cholecystitis return
Removing the gallbladder and gallstones will prevent further attacks.

Rocketmiles is a hotel booking site where you can earn airline miles with American AAdvantage, Delta SkyMiles, HawaiianMiles, United MileagePlus, and US Airways Dividend Miles.for your hotel bookings. In some cases, you can earn a lot of airline miles. The downside of the site is that you generally won't earn hotel points or elite status credit on your stays since they are booked via this third party, but I know not everyone cares about hotel elite status on every trip. For example, if you are staying at a chain you rarely stay at, or that doesn't participate in a points program at all, it can make sense to instead rack up a load of airline miles on your booking.
To celebrate their two month anniversary – today only (June 5th) they are offering 2x miles on all bookings. The increased amounts are the ones displayed on the site.
As part of their data from the first two months it seems that their average customer is earning 7,000 miles per booking and is spending an average of $195 a night in cities like New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Atlanta and Los Angeles. The most miles received from a single hotel stay was 31,000 miles for a 4-night stay in New York.
Rocketmiles only displays a select number of "premium" hotels in select cities, but it can be a great way to rack up a lot of miles if you have a hotel stay. If you have been wanting to try them out then today is a great day to do it since the miles you earned are double the normal rate!
4 Responses to "Earn Double Airline Miles With Rocketmiles – Today Only"
thank you! any referral links?
Thanks for the tip, too bad Rocket Miles doesn't have many international (European) destinations
NO status upgrades correct?
Thanks MP. I've booked a few reservations over the next six months that hit the sweet spot for me. 7,000 miles a night at the Sofitel in Redwood City for $230 a night was something I couldn't stay away from.
People should understand that these are prepaid though you can cancel them. I've found that emailing firstname.lastname@example.com works just fine if you have to cancel. Just do it three days ahead or whatever the reservation requires.
@Paul G: Yup, no double dipping here, unlike PointsHound. PointsHound has some rates at some hotels that allow double dipping–both extra miles and status/nights towards status at the chain. But of course the trade-off that the miles you earn are much lower, typically 400/500 miles a night. Of course they also offer a LOT more hotels in a LOT more cities.

Chaos & Chromosomes
Name: N/A Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
In the theory of chaos, everything is affected by something that previously occurred, and nothing is random. My teacher says that the way that chromosomes line up and split is pure random. I say that it is effected by other factors that we cannot predict. Who is right?
Well, I think you are perhaps confusing two different things here. First of all, the idea that everything is affected (and in fact determined) by things that previously occurred is much more basic than the theory of chaos - it underlies all of classical mechanics which has been around since Isaac Newton. But, what if those things that previously occurred were random? The randomness around us could be traced all the way back to the big bang. Actually, it does not have to be traced back that far, because the theory of quantum mechanics (which was developed early in this century) tells us that on a very small scale, nature really is non-deterministic: random things just do happen, when we are talking about individual atoms and molecules. Now if we are talking about division of chromosomes - there could be a lot of non-randomness involved because these are really big objects (compared to individual atoms) and they have properties that might, in some deterministic fashion which we cannot yet predict, make it much more likely for one kind of event to happen than another. But if we do not understand this yet and cannot predict it, it is not such a bad approximation to assume that things are purely random. In any case, the statement that "nothing is random" is wrong - and is more and more wrong as you look at smaller and smaller systems but even for large systems it is often not a bad approximation to assume random behavior when things are too complex to predict.

The SLV Spot 79 Spotlight is durably constructed from aluminium and imbued with a smart silver-grey finish. This stylish luminaire is also highly adjustable thanks to 350° of rotation and a versatile 180° tilting movement. Precise direction of light is easy with this fitting, whether you're lighting work surfaces, display items, or reflecting light off of a wall or ceiling for wider illumination.
Please note that this fitting is certified suitable for mounting on flammable surfaces.
To help co-ordinate with existing décor, the SLV Spot 79 Spotlight is available from Lyco in a choice of finishes. It is wall or ceiling mountable, and as a Class 1 fitting it must be connected to electrical earth during installation. Potential areas of use for the non-water-resistant Spot 79 include modern offices, hallways, living rooms or bedrooms.
The SLV Spot 79 Spotlight takes a 50W maximum GU10 halogen bulb (sold separately), which connects via a secure 'twist and lock' bi-pin GU10 base.
The recommended minimum mounting height for the Spot 79 Spotlight is 2.5 metres due to the heat created by a halogen bulb. This is not applicable if you choose to use a low energy or LED bulb.
An alternative option for this fitting is an LED GU10. Although more expensive, this will quickly repay any investment through an 80-90% saving in running costs and eradicated maintenance. An LED bulb does not emit IR heat in its beam, so offers increased suitability when lighting heat-sensitive items such as food and art.

I am not a blogger. I am a writer and, hopefully, a communicator. But I am not a blogger. To me, bloggers are people who take/make/create/find/prioritize the time to write their blogs on a consistent basis. Their content is usually (but not always) interesting or compelling. They question; they muse; they throw out topics for discussion. I have discovered I am not that person, at least not on as consistent a basis as those who truly have earned the title 'blogger'.
Part of that is time constraints, but a lot of it has to do with having something to say. I blog when I'm motivated by a topic or question or subject that I think you would care about as well. For example, this past week I could have blogged about something obvious - the frenzied pace of the Christmas season and how to keep it simple and meaningful; I could have blogged on something provocative - the mixed responses we've been getting to James MacDonald's most recent teaching series (on his program, "Walk In The Word") about God's will in the life of the believer; or I could have blogged about my most recent visits with my cardiologists (I have two...I never thought I'd even have one), my prognosis (good) and my continued gratefulness to the Lord for his grace in my life this year (words can't begin to tell you). But the first topic seems predictable, the second isn't really necessary - yet - and the third seemed a bit self-indulgent. So instead I'm blogging...about blogging.
It's kind of like with Facebook and Twitter and Foursquare. Social media are an important and growing part of our lives but how we use them matters as much or more than their simple availability. For example, people ask if I'm "on Facebook". I tell them, "Yes, I'm on Facebook but I'm not really on Facebook", meaning I hardly ever spend time on it. Yet I know people who have it running in the background on their computers all day. If you follow, say, 50 people on Twitter and they each tweet 20 times a day, that's a thousand tweets to process...every day. And with all due respect, I don't care what you ate for lunch, that your Aunt Edna's flight was delayed 2 hours at the Denver airport or that you have been to 5 stores and can't find the Zhu Zhu Pet your 6 year-old is screaming for.
So in the coming year I will attempt to blog more often. Not that what I have to contribute to the blogosphere is that important - but simply as another means of connecting with you. I've really appreciated the responses to the blogs I've written in the last year. Your comments and responses have been thoughtful, instructive and at times very encouraging. But I'll try not to waste your time. Because none of us have enough of it. And after all, you don't really care what I think about President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize...do you?
Your Comments(please keep them on topic and polite)
Very Good Blog I agree on the Facebook and Twitter comments but I have not calculated it like you did. I Do agree, what should I know about some one and what I should not know. DO I care if you are cleaning to get ready for the inlaws? By the way, this Turkey Hill Ice Cream tastes good that I am eating while reading your Blog. I stummbled on your blog while looking up the internet radio idea like the Sanyo to see if that will work in our House where we seem to get fuzzzzzy FLN recieption. Thanks Cecil
I like your blogs. And so what do you think about the Nobel Peace Prize?
He Friends,
I am not typically a complainer, but I've been frustrated this year with the Christmas music selections I hear on FLN. It just seems like every other song is a Holly Jolly, Jingle Bell, I'll be home for Christmas...secular type song that I can listen to on any of the other stations. I am not opposed to secular Christmas music, I just enjoy listening to the sounds and words of Michael Card, Selah, Michael W Smith - more of the classic and contemporary Christmas praise music so much more and it seems like I have to wait so long to hear those types of songs this year. I just thought I would mention this to you for what it's worth! Thanks.
I love the mix of Christmas music, just my 2 cents. And my sister is on Facebook all day I think, who has that much time? It's easier to type a few quick words but it isn't like talking to people. Anyway, have a Merry Christmas and I'm praying God is with you and the FLN crew in the new year. Judy
I have some blogs that I check regularly because I like what they write - like on FLN. So whenever you write something is ok because it's interesting to me. I find that I'm using Facebook less than I used to. It's ok to share pictures and stuff but I text and call friends more than Facebook them.
I think your blogs have been really inspiring especially when you wrote after your heart attack about everything you learned and went through. And I like that you write about music. I'm signing up for the listener advisory panel too. Have a blessed new year.
Cecil, I'm on Facebook, Twitter and I blog and here's what I thought about Obama winning the Nobel ; ) (I know you were dying to find out.)
Anywho, if you ever need a little friendly (free) help with the blogging/facebooking/etc drop me a line. Would love to help you take your on-air ministry on-line.
I wish you a rockin 2010..keep on writing and making me think and laugh!
I Do agree, what should I know about some one and what I should not know. So instead I'm P90x DVD blogging...about blogging.If you follow, say, 50 people on Twitter and they each tweet 20 times a day, that's a thousand tweets to process...

Transition In Place provides homeless families with housing and services for up to two years in single-family homes and apartments in throughout eastern Pierce County. Longer participation enables families to not only stabilize, but to build the critical skills, training, and experiences that will enable them to make lasting changes in their lives so that they (and their children) never become homeless again.
The family's relationship with their case manager is pivotal to success and a tremendous resource as they build new skills and approaches to challenges and barriers. Adults are offered classes geared towards life-skills needed to maintain housing and escape poverty. Topics include parenting, nutrition, financial literacy, car repair, landlord-tenant issues, family safety, and many others. Many families report that they learn skills they never knew about before or that they didn't have time to focus on or practice.
Case managers encourage the parents to address their financial situation by pursuing job training and other educational opportunities which will enable them to earn a living wage (many for the first time) and eventually be able to afford their own housing and support their household. Families pay 30% of their adjusted gross income for rent. The housing lease is in the client family's name, and they can remain in that housing as an additional tool to maintain stability after the family exits the program.
Case managers work closely with the children as well, and encourage them to be active in their schools. The kids have opportunities to participate in before and after school activities, summer camps, and tutoring. These activities have an enormously stabilizing effect and can begin to heal the emotional trauma of being homeless. By atttending school regularly and receiving tutoring, the children have a chance to close the academic achievement gap that is so common with homeless children. The progress they make allows them to feel good about being in school and then they want to be involved in the community and can begin to experience healthy social lives.
Helping Hand House also provides assistance for additional needs such as work clothes, school clothes, school supplies, transportation, child care, and medical and mental health care. Families who graduate from our Transitional In Place program become active, accomplished, and productive community members. Many seek ways to help others through sharing the information they have gained working through some of their challenges. We remain available to advise and celebrate with families long after they have settled into their independent lives. For many, their time at Helping Hand House becomes a turning point they never forget.

Russell tatt Branded on bum
CHEEKY fan Leonie Rickards asked her idol Russell Brand to sign her bum — then had it tattooed.
The student met the comic after a gig. She told him of her plan to have his autograph permanently on her body — then he signed her 34G boobs in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset.

Dr Martin Whitely, is a former Western Australian (WA) politician (2001- 2013) and former high school teacher (1995-2001) who has had unprecedented success tackling the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Industry.
Martin has written a book titled Speed Up and Sit Still – the controversies of ADHD diagnosis and treatment (UWA Publishing 2010) and in March 2014 completed his PhD Thesis ADHD Policy, Practice and Regulatory Capture in Australia 1992-2012 (Curtin University – John Curtin Institute of Public Policy). A copy of the thesis is available at http://speedupsitstill.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Martin-Whitely-PhD-Thesis-Copy-ADHD-and-Regulatory-Capture-in-Australia-PDF.pdf
Martin's involvement in the ADHD debate
Martin first became concerned about ADHD child drugging in the mid 1990s. He was alarmed at the number of boys in his class who were medicated for ADHD but were unnaturally quiet and compliant. Even before he was elected to the Western Australia State Parliament in 2001, Martin was campaigning to stop child drugging and to ensure children with learning and behavioural difficulties had their real needs met.
Martin describes himself as a disorganised, forgetful, daydreamer who fits the diagnostic criteria for ADHD. However, Martin does not consider himself disordered or diseased. He feels lucky to have be born before his personality type became all too frequently labelled as a disability, warranting biochemical intervention.
When he was elected to the West Australian Parliament in 2001 Perth's ADHD prescribing rates were amongst the highest in the world. His advocacy slashed Western Australian child ADHD stimulant prescribing rates in half betwween 2002 and 2010 and in the process slashed WA teenage amphetamine abuse rates by 51% (Refer to the Rise and Fall of Child ADHD in WA).
However, Martin's success has been isolated to Western Australia. Across the globe, the ADHD Industry has been incredibly successful at expanding its markets. The Industry has created a sense of panic about ordinary childhood behaviours like fidgeting and failing to sit still. They have re-branded dangerous addictive amphetamines (Speed) like Dexamphetamine and Ritalin, and a failed antidepressant, Strattera, to pursue a thinly disguised profit driven agenda.
As a result millions of parents have been scared into 'medicating' their children in order to prevent imagined disastrous education and life outcomes. However, Perth's ADHD story offers hope that with common sense and leadership children can have a future where difference is regarded as a strength, not a disorder, and children with problems will have their real needs met. It shows we can do better for our children than simply drugging them so that they "Speed Up and Sit Still."
Statement regarding Martin's (lack of) commercial and religious affiliations
Martin's advocacy on ADHD is motivated solely by his experience as a teacher, parent and politician. He has no commercial interests in ADHD treatments or products. Martin communicates with a diverse range of anti-ADHD child drugging allies, however, other than Drug Free Attention Difficulties Support Inc (DFADS), Martin is not a member of any organisations with any interest in ADHD.
DFADS is a Western Australian not for profit support group for parents of children with behavioral and attentional difficulties. DFADS does not accept funding or donations from any businesses offering any form of treatment for ADHD or any behavioural or learning difficulties. DFADS has no association with any religious organisations. Any profits from the sale of the book Speed Up & Sit Still when it is published will be donated by Martin to DFADS
Despite internet reports to the contrary Martin Whitely is not a Scientologist. While Martin is not, and never has been, a devotee or follower of any religion, or a member of any organisation associated with any religion, he respects the right of individuals to their own religious beliefs.

Loved this little bugalow! Stayed for 10 days with husband, mom, and toddler son and we all enjoyed everything there was to offer. Would recommend to everyone...definitely cheaper than motel and much easier to stay at with children than a motel.
Loved this house
Clean, quiet, close to the metro and Hollywood sites. Rob is very responsive to questions and easy to work with. The house is well supplied and very comfortable. The location is central. On site parking is very convenient.
The street is very nice and residential and quiet, but keep in mind that there are homeless people around, a few seem to stay in the nearby park. The park is fenced in and I was never noticed walking by, which I only did during daytime.
I would recommend this house if staying in Hollywood.

McBride, Ph.D., professor and associate dean for public health in Washington University's Brown School, discusses the impact of health reform on rural communities. From a panel at the Rural Health Journalism Workshop 2011, presented by the Association of Health Care Journalists. About 70 percent of Americans over age 65 will eventually need some form of long-term care. This can mean nursing home care. But more commonly, it means help at home with activities such as dressing, cooking and eating. Many people think Medicare covers long-term services and supports. With limited exceptions, it does not, as this video points out.

This week may not seem as exciting as last week in terms of new releases, but there are actually a few hidden gems in here that you will want to make time for. Muramasa: The Demon Blade is shaping up to be a great Wii game (as well as one of the best looking), and Mini Ninjas is getting good buzz too. Then, of course, there's Guitar Hero 5, which Activision clearly wanted to shove out the door before The Beatles: Rock Band. It may be an entertaining distraction, but come next week we'll all be saying "Guitar Hero who?� Check http://www.gamervision.com for more episodes of the new releases show!

The NONO' by stefanO soavE will change the way you view chairs forever. Only once in a great while do chair innovations come along and blow our minds. First we had the stool. The the stool with a back—or chair. Then the chair with wheels. Not a lot has happened since then. Until now.
The NONO' by stefanO soavE would catch anybody's eye. I mean, who else has a chair that is 70cm tall and has only three legs? Nobody. Except maybe Italian designer stefanO soavE.
Next time you're in IKEA, take a look a closer look at all the conformist four-legged chairs and cross your fingers that the NONO' by stefanO soavE will see the retail light of day.

April 28, 2010 by Brooke Allen
Filed under NBM Blog
It all begins here in the lab, getting cozy and scribbling equal parts jibberish and possible story plots… this is the most fragile part of the process for it often gets eclipsed by dance night, facebook lurking, and 18 hour naps but every once in a blue moon the stars align, self control conquers all and I start scripting …which looks like this:
This is the closest thing to a script that A Home for Mr.Easter got ( which may explain a lot ). It's composed on posted notes and whatever little pieces of scrap paper were close at hand taped and nested in a 4×6 sketch book. If you're having trouble writing I find that this way always helps because its not as scary jotting down plot points on pieces of paper that might have ended up in the trash any way and they're easy to move around, build onto, or just get rid of.
During this stage I tend to do what a lot of people do and script in thumbnail form, already start figuring out what the page layout is, how the frames will work together to create the pacing you want (which in this case was pretty fast ), and where dialogue and sound effects might go. In addition to these things I find it helpful to go ahead and sketch a few character designs or environments on the side whenever I get stuck… because as soon as you get stuck suddenly you remember your computer is right next to you and you could probably go update your facebook status from WORK NIGHT to I HATE WORK NIGHT but then suddenly you get a message from your best friend ever that says GET DOWN TOWN NOW and instantly you obey…. and … um …where was I?
So after I get a pretty good idea of the rough outline I go to my OTHER sketch book filled with helpful little pages of graph paper and do my tight roughs (as seen below). These are bigger more specific scribbles that are accompanied by dialogue… this is pretty much what my finished pencils look like later on 9×12 bristol… which would drive my teachers to murder. But in all honesty tighter pencils will only help you out on inks in the long run. Lesson learned.
Closer to the Shelves…
March 23, 2010 by Brooke Allen
Filed under NBM Blog
Hope every one's having an eventful month of March! To be honest it's passed by so quickly the only thing I remember is St. Paddy's… or well, maybe I don't… Any who, this brings A HOME for Mr. EASTER a little closer to book shelves and hopefully a little closer to you too. In the mean time I guess I'll get you all a little more acquainted with the book, its characters, and what on earth I was thinking when I made it… So where to begin…
Where indeed. The setting in which A Home for Mr. Easter takes place is purposefully pretty vague. I wanted to tell the story economically with just the right amount of information needed to understand the characters. I didn't feel that placing Tesana in a specific city was pertinent to her or anyone else's character, not to say that I think it would have been a bad thing to do so, it just would have made Mr. Easter a different story…
(also does any one else see the smiley face in the rock in the picture above? Now that I see it I can't stop looking at it).
Well that bit of insight was short lived, next time perhaps I'll devote a post to the villains of Mr. Easter or maybe one to process… or maybe both!
Thanks again for all the glorious support! If only I could award you with a freshly baked brownie every time you stopped by the blog … but I can't… I'm still working on that technology.
Hearts and Good Feelings to all!
On the cusp of a little march madness…
March 4, 2010 by Brooke Allen
Filed under NBM Blog
So I woke up this morning ( afternoon), broke my fast like a champion (on 3 chocolate chunk brownies and 2 glasses of Twinnings) and looked over at the calender anticipating the day only to spy- " my god…" I said as I slowly lowered my 4th brownie " It's March…"
So I've come to the conclusion that I've either been unconsciously time traveling again or just incoherently busy… regardless where did February go!? But you know what this means: the time draws nigh for "A Home for Mr.Easter" to hit shelves in April! I can't say I'm not nervous but I am definitely excited too.
Well after having had that little realization it's almost dinner time which means 4 more brownies (which I heard is the optimum method of fuel for some one in the midst of Finals week) and unfortunately this post will be cut a little short until next week when said curse (finals) has been lifted for spring break!
Until then folks, stay healthy and happy and try avoid any madness march brings Example:
Down the Bunny Trail…
February 24, 2010 by Brooke Allen
Filed under NBM Blog
I'll be honest, I can't think of anything more fun to draw then some one tromping through the woods… and as a result you'll find many a panel of Tesana + crew doing just that. Besides it being the perfect excuse to scribble trees and live vicariously through my characters (because lets face it, running around outside is so much more fun then sitting at a big dumb desk) it's also a great device to visually express complete aimlessness and further establish that the characters are lost and out of their element.
. … but mostly I just like drawing trees.

More sneak peaks at A Home for Mr.Easter
January 28, 2010 by Brooke Allen
Filed under NBM Blog
Here's a couple of the first pages where our heroine, unwilling to take the bus to school, waits patiently for it's arrival… next to her mom who undoubtedly only improves the situation.
An age old drama unfolds as mother and child debate the importance of education and the attendance there of… in the end, per usual, Mom wins the debate.
Note: her Mom using her 'outside voice' inside (that's a Mom privilege).
Being dragged to the bus stop by your Mom A.K.A. starting the day off right.
This poor poor bus driver…. I like to believe that she was employed strictly based on her crazy crypt keeper appearance…I also like to believe that she's really 30.

Jackie Polette says the best day of her life was May 19, 2012, when she got a hole-in-one. She started golfing about four years ago, beginning with lessons and practicing religiously. �Just this summer, I got to the point where I�m starting to beat some of my guy buddies,� she says. On the day of her hole-in-one, she was playing one of her �worst rounds of golf ever,� she says. After her recent hot streak, the bad day became frustrating. �We are at Quail Creek, hole 13, it�s 110 yards,� she recalls. �I accidentally grab my 7 iron�wrong club, but at this point I�m on the tee box and my score card is so ugly it�s not worth turning around to grab a shorter club.� Her friend, Ron, was to the left of the green and threw up his arms like she had made a field goal. �Every horrible shot I had made that day or any other day didn�t even matter.�

What kind of glue do you guys use for your basing materials? I have grass flocking, Scale rocks, etc but I'm wondering which glue type is best for each.
basing glue
Posted 11 May 2012 - 12:31 PM
Posted 11 May 2012 - 03:26 PM
Depending how you base you can use clear elmers glue or wood glue. If doing gravel as I typically play a city board I use the wood glue, then go over that with some woodland scenic - scenic cement, its just a watered down elmers glue but it dries flat and holds the gravel in place nicely.
Posted 11 May 2012 - 04:41 PM
thanks, never would have thought of elmers…
Posted 11 May 2012 - 06:27 PM
Also elmers glue is sometimes reffered to as pva glue.
Posted 11 May 2012 - 11:47 PM
I use undiluted PVA/Elmer's glue to fix ballast, sand and other bits to the base. You can dilute it a bit but if you work quick and are sparing, there's no need. Then I dilute 50/50 with water and use an eyedropper to fix it all once dry.
Posted 12 May 2012 - 09:19 AM
PVA works fine for me.
Sometimes even in a mix with water, black color and sand to create some kind of a paste,
which is fine to hold some small terrain bits like skulls, weapons to appear half buried in the ground…
Posted 06 June 2012 - 08:48 AM
I'll chime in and add my voice to elmer's!!
I picked up a 2L jub several years ago, and I'm STILL using it! And that AFTER I based a 8 foot urban ruins table, and probably close to 200 miniatures.
I have used cyanoacrylite, but that stuff can be dangerous if you're not in a well ventilated area… AND, if you're drilling/carving into it, it can ignite and make caustic gas.
Found that out the hard way. :S
Posted 07 June 2012 - 09:42 AM
Whichever PVA based glue you can get the cheapest

As the world marks the 150th anniversary of Charles Darwin's The Origin of the Species, a new film seeks to debunk his theory on evolution.Doug Phillips is the executive producer of the documentary called The Mysterious Islands.
As its name suggests, the film was shot in the Galapagos Islands, the place Darwin visited in 1835.
"When he reached the Galapagos Islands, Darwin was already settled in his mind on a number of important issues," Phillips told WND.
"He had become very much a cynic and a skeptic of Christianity and the Bible," he explained. "In his autobiography he specifically said that he viewed the Bible as a book of mythology that was closer to the history that would come from 'barbarians' than actual truth."
Now the question remains -- is the Galapagos really a laboratory of evolution, or a glorious testimony of God's creation? Click play for Phillips' answer.The Mysterious Islands will be premiering in various cities across the U.S. For more information visit VisionForum.com.
