October 03, 2013
Those in Nova Scotia who rolled into work Thursday a bit bleary-eyed after staying up to watch Nathan MacKinnon's debut will be cut some slack. The 18-year-old centre's NHL debut was worth it.
The Halifax Mooseheads graduate will have some difficulties as a rookie in the NHL, of course. The hockey world, though, saw what the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League knew it had over the past couple years. MacKinnon, one month past his 18th birthday, notched two assists, showing himself to be the compleat playmaker by twice setting up Jamie McGinn, a former Ottawa 67.
His competitiveness also grated on the Anaheim Ducks during their 5-0 defeat, which might explain why he was on the receiving end of a knee-on-knee collision with defenceman Ben Lovejoy, which led to rookie Avalanche head coach Patrick Roy getting a game misconduct for an outburst reminiscent of his best bits with the Q's Quebec Remparts.
[Sunaya Sapurji: Hockey puts Cole Harbour on the international stage]
The Cole Harbour, N.S., native initiated a second-period skirmish with Lovejoy, taking a penalty. It hardly proved to be a rookie mistake.
Later in the period, MacKinnon won a race for a puck behind the Anaheim net and threaded a pass through the feet of veteran Saku Koivu, who began playing in the NHL one month after MacKinnon was born in September 1995. McGinn rapped it in to get the rookie on the scoresheet.
In the third period, MacKinnon took a puck to the net and feathered it to McGinn for the 5-0 goal.
With that, the night became officially historic.
From the Elias Sports Bureau, via TSN Radio's Shawn Lavigne ( @tsnlaidback):
MacKinnon, who was only 18 years, 31 days old when he took the ice on Wednesday night, became the youngest NHL player to record two or more points in a game since January 8, 1944, when Ted "Teeder" Kennedy scored four points (one goal, three assists) for the Maple Leafs in a 12-3 win over the Bruins in Toronto at age 18 years, 27 days.
Kennedy was a Hall of Famer who led the Toronto Maple Leafs to five Stanley Cups in the 1940s and early '50s, so you know the last time this happened was way, way back.
Would that it had been the talker for the night. In the final minute, though, MacKinnon collided with Lovejoy, his dance partner from earlier in the evening.
No penalty was called on Lovejoy, which led to Roy getting into with Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau. That is likely going to be upstage anything that happened on the ice.
Now you can see why neither of these personalities will be easy for the Q to replace.

freezing curry leaves

Whats the best way to freeze curry leaves and how long will they keep?
I'm not sure if this is the best way, but here's how I do it: I let the leaves remain on the stem, wrap the whole thing in plastic wrap and then place that package in a ziplock bag, squeezing out as much of the air as possible. They last months at a time this way without much of a drop in quality.
re: nan
Yeah, definitely- the ziplock method will last a while in the freezer. Again, I'm not sure if that is the best way, but it has worked for me.
When I first started to use curry leaves it was somewhere around '93 or so, and I had to buy them frozen in a celophane envelope sealed with staples. Now I can get them fresh pretty easily, but it seems like a waste to discard what I don't use in a timely manner. So- what the heck, frozen leaves weren't so bad back then- I started experimenting with methods, and this has worked best for me so far. Freezer burn, or ice crystals on the leaves, seems to be the main culpret; it turns the leaves a brownish black color with an odd aroma. Avoid that and the leaves maintain themselves fairly well.0

I am having a heck of a time... We are doing a gut remodel and adding a guest house to a new property. Picking out appliances for "my" new kitchen is humming along nicely. I also need to buy appliances for our guest/pool house. People are going to see this kitchen a lot and there is a clear view into the kitchen from the main house and the yard. The appliances could be used a)never b)often if an elderly parent, needy friend or college student lives there or most likely c)fridge used for drinks, DW used to wash barware etc. and oven used for appetizers, pizza or by visiting relatives. I am so not good at these kinds of decisions! I've pretty much decided on a counter-depth Samsung fridge. I also need a DW and a slide-in electric range. What would you do? We have a lower-end, highly rated Bosch in our vacation home and it isn't great... |
Follow-Up Postings:
1st - you need to decide what this is going to be. will it be just for drinks and warmed over pizza - or will it need to be a fully functioning kitchen? And, will it have to function for a college bachelor or an aging couple ? Something that's cheap and usable in one scenario could be bloody awful in another. 2nd - you need to decide a budget. No sense looking at high quality fancy appliances if you only have $3000 to spend. and ...you have a bosch what ??? |
About three years ago, we put in a "party kitchen", and at the time we knew that at some point we would be using it full time when we remodeled our main kitchen. I chose the appliances with an eye to the possibility that we might have (or future owners) might have someone living in that space, (aging parent, nanny, etc) We have been using it full time for about two weeks now, since we are in the middle of our remodel in the main kitchen. I chose an Electrolux slide-in gas range and paired it with a Maytag over the range microwave, Bosch DW, and a Samsung FD frig. We really like the bright lighting and roll out racks on the Elux. It bakes beautifully and the burners are powerful. The Maytag MW has a stainless interior, which was a must for me. Just as an aside, we had a bad experience with a GE Profile MW in the main kitchen, where the paint in the cavity cracked and peeled within the first year. It replaced a GE Monogram MW which had lasted many years. The Maytag has far more programs than the GE. The Samsung FD frig is not counter depth and holds everything that was in our old 48" SZ. I am not crazy about the bottom freezer but I do love the extra deep door bins for drinks and having everything at eye level in the refrigerator section. It really comes in handy when we have oversized party trays. Even the deli drawer can hold a large tray. The Bosch was an upper end model at the time with many different cycles but does not have a cutlery tray. It is a good DW, but as compared to the Miele we had in the other kitchen, we just don't like it as well, and that is mostly due to the way it loads. |

Do you have cheat days? If so, how do you keep from falling completely off the wagon? I'm a little disgusted with myself right now for how much of a cheat day I had today.
100 lb. Club - cheat days?View Full Version : cheat days? 1049jess 02-20-2012, 10:23 PM Do you have cheat days? If so, how do you keep from falling completely off the wagon? I'm a little disgusted with myself right now for how much of a cheat day I had today. essbee 02-20-2012, 10:29 PM I'm not sure what your motivation is, but look back at that. That's the thing that got me right back on track after a brief vacation the week before last. Originally I was going to try to stick to watching my calories, but it became increasingly difficult and I got emotional, so I just said forget it. Once I got back home though, well...it was back to the grindstone! If nothing else, think of it as splurging. Do you ever go out and buy something you know you really shouldn't? You don't continue to buy things you shouldn't, you rein yourself in! You can do it! Just remember that if nothing else! astrophe 02-20-2012, 10:58 PM Words like "cheat" and "fall off the wagon" I don't use much because they make food emotional or like it's out of your control. I'm on plan to lose or I'm on plan to maintain. I eat to lose during the week. On weekends and during TOM, I eat to maintain. Either way, I'm on plan because I choose to do it that way. Who am I cheating? I'm not falling off anything. Most of our socializing happens on weekends. Dealing with a social situation or my period time is challenge enough without the extra stress of ALSO trying to diet at that time. I chalk it up to practice for maintanence and call it good enough to break even. I can enjoy my social life, get through rough periods as best I can, and then carry on as usual. Overall, most days I'm eating to lose, so I'm still losing overall. Taking some maintain days to be able to go the long haul with less stress? I'm ok with that. But going with your terms... I drive my own wagon, thanks. So I choose the road. ;) I rather take the slightly longer but more comfortable road than deal with a shorter but much bumpier one. If you find yourself having a hard time sticking to the road/plan you chose -- can you adjust and pick an easier one to follow? Why pick this one? A. 1049jess 02-20-2012, 11:15 PM Thank you all for your thoughts. Great advice so far! I guess I feel like I binged today compared to how I normally eat. I'm talking excessive amounts of desserts-- enough to make my stomach hurt. Tomorrow I'm back to work and back to eating well again, so this one day isn't that bad really. I need to learn to stop beating myself up. Easier said than done. astrophe 02-20-2012, 11:38 PM Do you have blood sugar issues? If so, desserts can be hard to stick to on portion. It causes a spike and then you jones for another hit. Or was it emotional eating? Sweets indicate heart hunger -- wanting comfort and nurture. Have you been feeling lonely? Or similar? Don't beat yourself up over it happening -- just try to understand WHY it happened. Then next time when faced with this situation you can try a different approach to see if that works better. A. 1049jess 02-20-2012, 11:56 PM I have control issues, and we went to a festival similar to the state fair today. Temptations everywhere! I've had my blood sugar tested recently and no issue with my blood levels. However, I do have pcos and take metformin for it. I know I have issues with my blood sugar, even if tests doing show it. If I go to long without eating, I can get very cranky and feel weak. jitterfish 02-21-2012, 03:12 AM I don't have cheat days because to me no food is off limit. I have a calorie budget, I try to stick with it. Sometimes I go over but I try not to beat myself up about it. I let myself have treats from time to time because otherwise I binge and go crazy and make myself sick. And then some days I just feel blah and eat crap anyway! I tried the cheat day thing, it didn't work for me because I thought "I can eat anything". It took me realising that I'm not on a diet to get over that thinking, I had to tell myself that all food is ok, some is better than others and its about the calorie deficit. vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Summary: For medical anthropology, medical sociology, public health, nursing courses.
This book looks at both the biological and cultural aspects of health and healing within a comparative framework.
This reader provides both fascinating comparative ethnographic detail and a theoretical framework for organizing and interpreting information about health. While there are many health-related fields represented in this book, its core discipline is medical anth ...show moreropology and its main focus is the comparative approach. Cross-cultural comparison gives anthropological analysis breadth while the evolutionary time scale gives it depth. These two features have always been fundamental to anthropology and continue to distinguish it among the social sciences. A third feature is the in-depth knowledge of culture produced by anthropological methods such as participant-observation, involving long-term presence in and research among a study population. ...show less

Witness an authentic performance of the classic "A Christmas Carol," with one of the original performers in the 1938 radio show that starred the legendary Orson Welles.
Tickets go on sale Tuesday, Aug. 10, at Western Carolina University for a December re-creation of the Campbell's Playhouse radio adaptation of "A Christmas Carol."
The WCU production will use Welles' personal script and will star Arthur Anderson, who will reprise his role of the Ghost of Christmas Past that he performed in the original radio show more than 70 years ago. Now 87, Anderson was 16 at the time he portrayed one of Charles Dickens' ghostly trio opposite Welles in the 1938 broadcast.
"A Christmas Carol," which includes a live orchestra and sound effects, will feature the talents of WCU faculty, staff and students, as well as radio professionals from Western North Carolina.
Presented with special permission of the show's original sponsor, the Campbell Soup Co., the performance will begin at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 9, in WCU's Fine and Performing Arts Center. All tickets are $10 each.
The academic-based entertainment event is being mounted by director Steve Carlisle, a stage and screen veteran who is associate dean of WCU's Honors College; musical director Bruce Frazier, the Carol Grotnes Belk Distinguished Professor of Electronic and Commercial Music; and producer Donald Connelly, head of WCU's department of communication.
The team previously collaborated on the 2008 live radio show production of Welles' "The War of the Worlds" and last year's nationally acclaimed Veterans Day tribute "On the Home Front, Nov. '44."
The show is a joint production of the Department of Communication, Department of English, School of Music, School of Stage and Screen, and Honors College.

Burke Lecture Series
Robert and Avis Burke Lecture Series
The Robert E. and Avis Tarrant Burke Lecture Series allows the Department of the History of Art to share the research of outstanding scholars with Indiana University students and faculty as well as the larger Bloomington community.
Robert Elisha Burke (1884-1957) was an artist and professor of Fine Arts at Indiana University from 1911 to 1949. Upon his death, Avis Adalaide Tarrant Burke (1886-1984) endowed the Robert E. and Avis Tarrant Burke fund. Mrs. Burke also donated a collection of nineteenth-century clothing and eighteenth- and nineteenth-century fans to Indiana University, which comprises a significant part of the Elizabeth Sage Costume Collection.
The purpose of the Robert and Avis Burke Lecture Series is to share the current research of outstanding scholars with Indiana University students and faculty as well as the larger Bloomington community. We attempt to coordinate the key speakers to the interests of faculty and topics in current courses.

Dr. Elizabeth Sears
George H. Forsyth Junior Collegiate Professor of History of ArtHope School of Fine Arts, Room 102
Elizabeth Sears has two areas of specialization: European representational arts from the eighth through the fourteenth century and historiography. Much of her medieval research has involved close study of manuscripts, but her work has been characteristically thematic and problem-based (e.g. the iconography of sensory perception, author portraits and theories of authorship, guild regulations and the medieval critical eye). Her historiographical research, archive-based, has led her to study methods of image study. Publications include "Eye training: Goldschmidt/Wölfflin," and treatments of figures standing in the Warburgian tradition including H. W. Janson, W. S. Heckscher, Edgar Wind, Fritz Saxl, Jean Seznec, and Kenneth Clark. She is currently engaged in writing a collective biography, tentatively titled Warburg Circles, 1929-1964, that throws light on a highly influential intellectual movement owed to scholars who emigrated from Germany in the Nazi era.

Miniature and Minor: An ancient studies Conference at Indiana University
The Program in Ancient Studies at Indiana University will host a conference on the miniature and the minor on April 11-12, 2014.Co-Sponsored by the Robert and Avis Burke Lecture Series
Whereas so much of our research implicitly or explicitly concerns the monumental and the major, we propose to investigate the miniature and the minor from a range of disciplinary perspectives. The art historian might explore cameos or textiles. The literary theorist might explore minor characters or minor works. The historian might explore micro-histories or minor battles. We are interested not only in the realia of the miniature and the minor but in the construction of those categories by both ancients and moderns. We are interested in the miniature and the minor both in their own rights and as counterpoints to the monumental and the major. We are less interested in simply demanding that attention be paid to the neglected or the overlooked.

These would get 5 stars across the board if my clutch petal didn't sometimes catch the top edge of the front driver's side mat (01 Sube Outback). It's an annoyance but not really a safety issue - the mat's not stiff enough to restrict the return on the pedal. If I had trimmed the mat an inch longer, this would not be an issue. As it is, I simply have to make sure to position it forward enough when I put the mat back in after cleaning.

Thin, with prominent cheekbones, a baritone voice, and a penchant for gloomy poetics, Peter Murphy is often called the "Godfather of Goth. In his four decades of service in the post-punk culture wars, Murphy has confounded fans, critics, even himself. As the main-man of the acclaimed outfit Bauhaus, he helped usher in ground breaking opaque moods and atmospheres into the post-punk landscape. When the band broke up for the first time in 1983, the singer set off on a solo career that found him challenging his audiences in numerous ways.
Joshua is a modern folk musician, an amalgam of influence in the classically romantic tradition of Damien Rice, Ryan Adams, Iron and Wine, and Sufjan Stevens. Like the said ballyhooed folksters before him, Joshua is inspired to write largely as a result of the people and relationships surrounding him, while also subjecting his songs to his own vulnerabilities, doubts, and conflicts. He integrates these revelations with his agenda of lyrical candidness, creating an expressive and open artform.
With all of Joshua's ability and potential, what really sets him apart is his faultless ability in the live venue. Josh will silence the crowd with his soft, and consistently pitch perfect vocal control while unintentionally making you fall in love with him for being a 'good guy'. Considering the idiosyncratic confluence of ability he boasts, it is fair to say that Joshua spins a web of charm that makes him inimitably great.
Islet are a Cardiff experimental rock band. Their debut 'mini album', Celebrate This Place, was released on June 14th 2010 to positive reviews, and second mini album Wimmy was released 6 months later, through both Turnstile and Shape Records (co-run by Mark from the band). Much was made in the press of the band's success despite a lack of online presence, however Islet now have an official band website (isletislet.com). Since forming, Islet have featured in the NME, toured both solo and with Los Campesinos!, played Swn Festival 09 & 10, Eurosonic Festival, were part of Huw Stephens' 'Happy Huw Year' Tour, in their early gigs as a 3 peice Islet supported Teeth Mountain and Lovvers. Islet comprises of members (or past members) of The Victorian English Gentlemens Club, Attack + Defend, Fredrick Stanley Star, and Them Squirrels - Mark, Emma, John, and Alex. They share instrument duties.
Pint Shot Riot is an indie rock band from Coventry, England. Their line-up consists of Richard 'Rocket' Emerson (guitar / vocals), Chris 'Mini Rocket' Connoll (drums / backing vocals), David 'Baby Dave' Page (bass) and Rob Clements (lead guitar / backing vocals). Influenced by the spiky rhythms and even spikier lyrics of The Clash, the working class rock 'n' roll attitude of Oasis and the melodies and harmonies of The Kinks. Pint Shot Riot's songs talk not of despair but of hope, not of everyday mundane life but of dreams, not of isolation but of strength in union. It's an ambition. A promise.
The name of the band was derived from an observation made by Emerson who, when using predictive text to message a friend, noticed that the three words are all entered using the same numerical combination and, according to Page, "it just seemed a perfect fit".
Matching polka-dot dresses, choreography, and retro sensibilities form the building blocks of the Pipettes, a modern-day girl group from Brighton, England. The group was launched in 2003 by Monster Bobby (Robert William Barry), a local promoter who sought to revive the classic Phil Spector-inspired sound of the early '60s. An all-male troupe of backing musicians, the Cassettes, made up the backbone of the Pipettes' sound, but Monster Bobby smartly recruited three photogenic vocalists to take the wheel: Rebecca Stephens (RiotBecki), Julia Clark-Lowes (the Duchess of Darkness), and Rose Elinor Dougall (Rosay). Once assembled, the Pipettes sharpened their cheeky, endearing pop routine throughout 2004, playing shows in Brighton and London.
Cycles define life. Seasons come and go. Relationships begin and end. Feelings appear, disappear, and re-appear stronger than before. On his first full-length album for Nettwerk Records, CICADA, Liam Titcomb found inspiration within that cycle. In 2010, shortly after ending an intense relationship, Titcomb stole away to London for a month-long songwriting retreat. Exploring everything the UK had to offer and forging some incredible friendships in the process, he hit his stride as a writer and began penning the material that would eventually become his latest offering.
Don't be fooled by the eponymous nature of the name. Ash Koley is a band comprised of two people: Ash Koley and Phil Deschambault. Phil concedes his name isn't as catchy, and Ash is narcissistic enough to agree to have the band named after herself.
Their sound is an amalgamation of diverse influences, their songs sketch together diverse melodies and lyrics, drawing on cross-generational influences from Abba to the Eurythmics, and from Peter Gabriel to Radiohead. The result is a band that is a full embodiment of what they each bring to the duo – quirky charm, and upbeat classic pop music.
Born and raised in East Belfast, Gareth Dunlop enters the musical landscape as one of the most talked about new artists from Northern Ireland. BBC Radio Ulster says, "his songs communicate with a depth and wisdom beyond his years" and they named him "One to Watch."

New York five-piece Jupiter One's fresh sound breathes new life into stale stereotypes of indie rock. Born out of an urge to create mini-orchestral pieces, Jupiter One has dedicated its life to producing well-designed rock. In operation since 2003,the chemistry of these five individuals has expanded the boundaries of songwriting by incorporating new textures to create a different aural experience for each song. Many fans have compared Jupiter one to the early pioneering works of Pink Floyd, Genesis, and the Beatles. Others have appropriated more modern Brit-rock and Euro-funk associations such as Franz Ferdinand, Bloc Party, and Daft Punk.

Hello again my "two N D" friends, it's your resident gun newb again.
This time I'm looking for a recommendation on a pack to use to setup a proper bugout bag. The two I have been looking at is the Condor Tactial large Molle system and the 5.11 72 hour Molle pack. Both have been getting good remarks, but they are very different in price. Is there any other reason for this other than brand name? Perhaps you guys and gals can offer other recommendations.
Thanks again

I had miscarriage this past summer ...July 20th. Even though it was mentally difficult, physically it wasn't. I lucked out and did NOT have to receive a D & C, even though I have had one in the past, unfortunately. I had my menstrual cycle on August 30th and conceived on Sept. 13 (approximately) ! I am now almost 14 weeks along with TWINS !! I was devastated by the miscarriage but now I am so blessed !! I really wanted to post in hopes to ease any frustration or fears that others may have after miscarrying. It is possible to get pregnant right away so do not give up hope !!!posted 11/27/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I miscarried in October and immediately got pregnant. I didn't even have a period after the miscarriage. I was so paranoid the entire pregnancy, but gave birth to a perfect baby!posted 08/17/2009 by melandrad
I miscarried and had to have a D&C on August 14th after 9 weeks of prenancy. My husband and I had been trying for over a year to get pregnant and were so happy when we finally got a positive result. We are both so ready for a baby and do not want to wait before we start trying again. I did a bit of research in medical journals through the pub med database and found an article stating that, "Results showed that there are no proven reasons to recommend a waiting period between a miscarriage and a subsequent pregnancy" (J Perinat Med. 1994;22(3):235-41.). Based on this, I am going to start trying as soon as I can after I get my period. I am hoping it doesn't take me another year to get pregnant again! This has been such an emotional roller coaster!posted 08/28/2007 by Susanne08
i got pregnant not even a week after my miscarriage. i dealt with everything perfectly fine. it was a chemical pregnancy. but now i have a healthy 8 week old little girl that i am soooo in love with.posted 03/30/2008 by michaelaannn
I miscarried at 6 wks and my doctor told me that they used to say 3 months to wait, but now she says to wait one cycle then try again - her recommendation was not to try until after one month so the uterus can return to its normal sizeposted 08/23/2007 by babyB12008
i had a miscarriage 4 weeks ago and my doctor told me as long i was dealing with it okay emotionally, she said there was no scientific eveidence to say waiting or not waiting would better or worsen your chances of another miscarriage.. so it was okay to start trying right away... and that your body will only get pregnant again when it is ready to get pregnant again... but i think that also depends on how far a long you were when you miscarried... i was suppose to be 7 weeks along when i miscarried naturally, that probably matters too whether you had a D&C or miscarried naturally, and don't try again till the bleeding has stopped... so we have already started trying again. Best to talk about it with your doctor and decide whats best for you. cuz everybody is different. Good Luck :)posted 10/02/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I guess I can say that I miscarried early. I was 14 weeks. I didn't receive a D&C nor anything. I finally got word to wait at least three to six months before trying again because the odds of another miscarriage was high if your hormone level is not completely back to zero. This has been the hardest thing to go through..especially being surrounded by pregnant women and babies.posted 10/04/2007 by CarmelBelly
Last year, my husband and I were trying to get pregnant and finally we did after 6 months of trying. Soon after I found out the wonderful news, I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks. My OB tolde me that we could start trying again as soon as we were emotionally ready. I never got my period after my miscarriage and 5 weeks later I found out that I was pregnant again... I was affraid that I would have miscarrieg again, or that something would go wrong with my pregnancy, but it never did. My pregnancy was perfect and today I am a proud mom of a 5 month old boy that is super healthy and super cute, and I am totally crazy about him. Therefore, if you are emotionally ready to have another baby, there is no need to wait! Good luck!!!posted 10/23/2010 by Sylwia1
I had a m/c March 18, 2008 at 5 weeks. I did not get a D&C and my doctor told me we could start trying again immediately but advised we wait until the bleeding stops. My hcg level was really low for 5 weeks so my doctor said there should be no complications for me but had I had high hcg levels he would have cautioned us to wait before trying again. It depends on how far along you were, if you had to have a D&C, and how high your hcg level was to me. Why take chances on damaging yourself by trying too soon? Not only that but if the risk is higher right away then if your hormone levels are elevated, wait until they return to normal before trying again or you may go through the same thing again. At least that was close to what the doctor said to me. Good luck!posted 03/24/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
I was also told to wait 3 months after my D&C to try again; my baby stopped developing at 7 weeks (which is common for a miscarriage I was told). I got pregnant again after 4 months. It takes a while for your hormone level to go down after a pregnancy which I didn't know at the time. So it took a month after the D&C for my cycle to start again. We started trying to get pregnant not long after that.posted 08/29/2007 by SundyBee

We conducted a prospective, comparative, interventional study to evaluate the role of intranasal septal splints and to compare the results of this type of support with those of conventional nasal packing. Our study population was made up of 60 patients, aged 18 to 50 years, who had undergone septoplasty for the treatment of a symptomatic deviation of the nasal septum at our tertiary care referral hospital. These patients were randomly divided into two groups according to the type of nasal support they would receive: 30 patients (25 men and 5 women, mean age: 23.3 yr) received bilateral intranasal septal splints and the other 30 (26 men and 4 women, mean age: 22.4 yr) underwent anterior nasal packing. Outcomes parameters included postoperative pain and a number of other variables. At 24 and 48 hours postoperatively, the splint group had significantly lower mean pain scores (p < 0.05). At 48 hours, the splint group experienced significantly fewer instances of nasal bleeding (p < 0.01), swelling over the face and nose (p < 0.01), watering of the eyes (p < 0.01), nasal discharge (p = 0.028), nasal obstruction (p < 0.001), and feeding difficulty (p = 0.028). Likewise, mean pain scores during splint or pack removal were significantly lower in the splint group (p < 0.01). At the 6-week follow-up, only 2 patients (6.7%) in the splint group exhibited a residual deformity, compared with 8 patients (26.7%) in the packing group (p = 0.038). Finally, no patient in the splint group had an intranasal adhesion at follow-up, while 4 (13.3%) in the packing group did (p < 0.05). We conclude that intranasal septal splints result in less postoperative pain without increasing postoperative complications, and thus they can be used as an effective alternative to nasal packing after septoplasty.
Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disease that primarily affects the mucous membranes of the nose and nasopharynx. It is caused by Rhinosporidium seeberi. Clinically it presents as a reddish, bleeding, polypoid mass with a characteristic strawberry-like appearance on its surface, which is caused by the presence of mature sporangia. In the case described here, a 35-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of a slowly growing polypoid mass in his left nasal cavity. The surface of the mass was smooth, pale, and covered with nasal mucosa. It was attached to the nasal septum. Fine-needle aspiration cytology was suggestive of a parasitic cyst. The mass was excised with the use of local anesthesia. Histopathologic examination of the resected specimen revealed rhinosporidiosis. Prior to this diagnosis, the patient had not exhibited most of the typical clinical features that are suggestive of rhinosporidiosis. In the case of a nasal mass, a diagnosis of rhinosporidiosis is important to establish prior to any surgery because bleeding during and after surgery is usually profuse and can be life-threatening. The site of the excised mass should be cauterized to prevent recurrence.
Schwannomas of the nasal cavity are rare benign tumors, and those that arise from the nasal septum are even rarer. When they do occur, they usually become symptomatic early because of the close confines of the nasal cavity. We describe a case of nasal septal schwannoma that was noteworthy in that the patient-a 28-year-old woman-waited 8 months after the onset of symptoms to seek medical care. Her symptoms included complete right-sided nasal obstruction, occasional epistaxis, and hemifacial pain. The tumor was completely removed via an endoscopic approach. We discuss the clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, and treatment of this rarely encountered neoplasm.
Glomangioma is a painful, blue-red tumor that appears as a solitary encapsulated nodular mass, almost always on the skin. The first case of nasal glomangioma was reported in 1965. Since then, only 31 other cases have been reported in the literature. We present a new case of glomangioma of the nasal septum in a 61-year-old woman. The tumor was removed via an intranasal endoscopic excision. No recurrence was found at 3 years of follow-up. Our challenge was to distinguish the glomangioma from a true hemangiopericytoma and a paraganglioma.
Nasal septal perforations or defects have a variety of causes, including previous septal surgery, infection, collagen vascular disease, granulomatous disease, the use of irritant inhalants, and neoplasia; the most common of these is previous septal surgery.
While many surgically created nasal septal perforations are asymptomatic, others can create long-term problems.
Compensatory hypertrophy of the middle turbinate can occur when a patient's nasal septum is markedly deflected to one side, enlarging the airway and hence giving the middle turbinate an unusually large space in which to expand.
We report the case of a 35-year-old man who developed blindness and ophthalmoplegia during local anesthetic infiltration of the nasal septum. The complications were temporary, and the patient had full recovery without treatment. The vascular anatomy of the area and possible pathogenic mechanisms are discussed, with some suggestions on the prevention of this complication.
Defects of the nasal septum occur as a result of a variety of causes, including tuberculosis, irritation, neoplasia, trauma, infection, and chronic inflammatory diseases. Congenital os vomer agenesis as a cause is very rare. We report the case of a 28-year-old man with a defect in the posteroinferior part of the nasal septum that was discovered incidentally during a routine endoscopic examination. The patient was diagnosed with congenital os vomer agenesis, and the diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography. We discuss the features of this case and review the literature on this rare anomaly.
Primary tuberculosis of the nose is very rare. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with bilateral nasal obstruction and epistaxis of 3 months' duration but who was otherwise healthy. She was diagnosed with primary nasal septal tuberculosis and was treated with antituberculosis DOTS (directly observed treatment, short course) therapy for 6 months with complete recovery. Given the resurgence of tuberculosis in recent times, it is important that clinicians remain aware of this rare and treatable clinical entity.

Hi, I have a 7' Mission Fig outdoors, in coastal Southern CA. Planted in June, gets full sun pretty much the entire day. Soil is a mix of compost (60%) and original clay soil (40%). I used a small amount of fertilizer when I planted. Plant is watered about 3x/week, average amount of water. For the past 6 weeks or so, the tree has been losing leaves. Affected leaves look like in the image. We got a decent amount of coastal fog in the mornings pretty much all summer long, and lost a lot of squash and tomato to powdery mildew. I figured this was a type of fungal disease also, and have been spraying the leaves every 10 days with either copper spray or Neem oil, but the problem continues. Any idea if this is a fungal disease at work or if this could be a lack of nutrients or too much/too little water? Thanks!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Some of the other (newly formed) leaves start curling around the edges, then browning at the edges, as in this picture. |

I am a newbie when it comes to figs. But I had something like this not too long ago back in August, the bottom picture my fig leaves looked like. They were completely burnt to a crisp. I was told it was "salt burn" but I am not sure exactly what it was. In any case, I added some gypsum to my clay soil and my leaves have grown back healthy and beautiful again. All green now. If it is a fungal infection the remedy is different and I can't help you there. Hopefully some other people have good advice here! I am sure they do! Good luck. |

Please, Willard, you know I'm your amigo. Please pick "Bobby" Jindal as your running mate. Or, if you can't do that, let him speak in prime time about the glories of the voucher system he's putting in place in the Louisiana public schools.
A governor of one of the only 50 states that we have is using tax dollars to deliberately make the children of his state as ignorant as tree stumps. I'm no expert, but this seems to me like it ought to be a pretty big concern for those of us in the other 49....
Several of [Emily Dickinson's] poems show a presumptuous attitude concerning her eternal destiny and a veiled disrespect for authority in general. Throughout her life she viewed salvation as a gamble, not a certainty. Although she did view the Bible as a source of poetic inspiration, she never accepted it as an inerrant guide to life.
Hope is a thing with feathers. Louisiana is a thing with morons.
