Hire more people? NO!Submitted by another angry contractor (not verified) on Tue, 04/24/2012 - 8:26pm.
Excuse me Mr. Holland… Did you miss Mr. Sidbury's comment that it is now worse than ever? We have been contacting Moser for MONTHS and not one thing has been done. Your problem is the current leadership: EH supervisor and Health Director, not lack of staff. Going from 2 weeks wait time to 6-8 weeks wait time is unacceptable to me as a taxpayer and as a contractor. Do NOT spend over $100,000 of our tax dollars to hire more people, when the ones you had were doing a fine job until Moser and the 2 EH staffers she brought from Madison County arrived. »

I am currently taking it for bronchitis and have noticed that my toenail fungus is disappearing. My son has terrible problem with ingrown toenails. Thanks. Teresa
Posted by Jacky[YEA] My husband had a fungus under his skin in the abdomen and drank 3-5 tablespoons of ACV each day and it cleared up in no time at all. Since the doctor could not explain or cure his problem, I have a theory. My husband had been on a lot of different antibiotics over the past several years for some issues he had and the antibiotics messed up his immune system where he contracted this fungus. Thanks be unto God for ACV!

After listening to an infomercial on you tube it recommended ACV one teaspoon in a glass of Apple juice. After drinking it the pain immediately decreased and in fifteen minutes was completely gone. Best thing ever.
Posted by Karen (Salt Lake City, NV)[YEA] Have had years of trouble with irritable bowel syndrome and, more recently, gallbladder problems. Since drinking ACV (even during an attack) I find relief from these conditions and I now have only 1-2 gallbladder attacks per year after only 1 year of ACV. I previously had 1-2 attacks per month and was considering surgery.

07/30/2009If you are having gallbladder attacks, flush out the stones with a liver cleanse. olive oil, epson salt and grapefruit juice. You can use the apple juice to soften
the stones before you do the cleanse. The attacks could also mean that your liver is compromised by toxic materials like heavy metals besides the stones.Gas/Flatulence 3 0

Everything that I ate gave me gas. I noticed in the very same day that I took the ACV my gas pains have disappeared. However, one of my tooth that has multiple fillings is hurting me. Now I understand why. I will just use a straw. I love my ACV. I am trying to lose weight also.

Posted by Ron (Long Beach, CA)[YEA] I was having terrible gas, my stomach hurt every time I ate something, then, the gas, both ends, it was terrible! My doctor wanted me to have a colonoscopy, as she thought it might be cancer. I had an old apple cider vinegar book, I have had for years.

Posted by Dee (Melbourne, Australia) on 10/03/2012Hi everyone I must say this website is amazing. Since taking extra virgin coconut oil and ACV my energy levels have improved so much within one week of taking it plus I have been feeling calm and not angry anymore. I want to ask earth clinic and everyone out there what if I rub VCO on my teeth first and then drink ACV. Will it be helpful protecting my tooth enamel in anyways from eroding? Will it be work like a protection layer. By the way I use straw to drink Apple Cider Vinegar mix it with water, but still I feel my teeth are becoming sensitve to vinegar. Please help me with that I want to continue taking ACV without worrying about my teeth being rotten. Please waiting anxiously for any suggestions. Blessings!!!!

10/05/2012ACV is manufactured in tablet form, availability around the globe I dunno; much more convenient than liquid.Posted by Tracy (Boulder City, Nv, Usa) on 09/08/2012Hi all! I started taking ACV with the mother about a week ago. 2 tablespoons mixed with water once a day.. I noticed low grade earache, sniffles, & sneeze here and there etc... Then after about 5 days I doubled my dosage to 2 tablespoons TWICE a day in water... And BAM! I had major allergies pop up. I'm wondering if my body is going through a detox affect? or what? Isn't it supposed to HELP allergies? I absolutely LOVE the energy it gives me within 10 minutes of taking it, but what is going on with these allergies? I havent changed my diet or exposed myself to anything new that I know of.. Except for ALOT of white lines in the sky the past few days. Any ideas are greatly appreciated :) Thank GOD and all of you for Earth Clinic!

10/07/2012Have you looked into eliminating grains, and milk from your diet for 2 weeks then slowly introducing each one back, monitoring your symptoms? Doing this, I found that these 2 foods were the bane of my existence; the ones giving me stomach aches, acid reflux, fungus, should er/joint pain, rashes, and a host of other problems that left when I stopped eating them. I'm talking about wheat, corn, oats, yogurt, cream cheese, and milk, period! And it did not take long for my symptoms to leave. For example: When I had extremely excessive bleeding from fibromalgia with a period every 15 days, I thought I was doomed to a hysterectomy. Relief came when I went on an extremely grain free diet. Within 5 days, the basketball sized, bloated stomach was GONE, the bleeding stopped and my next period was normal, with no cramping (I didn't even know I had started), no excessive bleeding, and, 10-15 days morphed into my normal SHORT days of 4.5. A fungus patch on my arm, went away within a week. Grain-free has helped every women with my symptoms and more that I have recommended this to. It's simple, and it works. As for milk, when I don't drink it for 2 days in a row, I wake up the 3rd day with a smooth complexion compared to rashed-up and dry. So, I have a choice, beautiful skin and no stomach pain, acid reflux.... or blueberry cheesecake ice-cream and pizza! I compromise by eating these "I gotta haves" one day, once a month - if at all because, I'm gettin better at this thing called "only taking in what's going to keep me running healthy and sane.

Grimaldi's Pizzeria has opened its fourth Nevada location in Las Vegas.
The company is in the middle of a major expansion plan to build on its current 20 restaurants in five states. In 2011, Grimaldi's restaurants will open in Dallas, West Palm Beach, Fla. and various other sites.
It has been said that the secret to true New York-style pizza is the water. To keep the integrity used in the Brooklyn pizzeria, Grimaldi's hired a chemist to analyze and recreate the mineral content and exact composition of the water to ensure the dough tastes the same in Las Vegas.
The new Grimaldi's Pizzeria is currently open for dinner only and will extend its hours later this month.

Urinary incontinence (UI), involuntary urination, is any leakage of urine or fecal matter. It can be a common and distressing problem, which may have a profound impact on quality of life. Urinary incontinence almost always results from an underlying treatable medical condition but is under-reported to medical practitioners.[1] Enuresis is often used to refer to urinary incontinence primarily in children, such as nocturnal enuresis (bed wetting) [2]
The most common types of urinary incontinence in women are stress urinary incontinence and urge urinary incontinence. Women with both problems have mixed urinary incontinence. Stress urinary incontinence is caused by loss of support of the urethra which is usually a consequence of damage to pelvic support structures as a result of childbirth. It is characterized by leaking of small amounts of urine with activities which increase abdominal pressure such as coughing, sneezing and lifting. Additionally, frequent exercise in high-impact activities can cause athletic incontinence to develop. Urge urinary incontinence is caused by uninhibited contractions of the detrusor muscle. It is characterized by leaking of large amounts of urine in association with insufficient warning to get to the bathroom in time.
Continence and micturition involve a balance between urethral closure and detrusor muscle activity. Urethral pressure normally exceeds bladder pressure, resulting in urine remaining in the bladder. The proximal urethra and bladder are both within the pelvis. Intraabdominal pressure increases (from coughing and sneezing) are transmitted to both urethra and bladder equally, leaving the pressure differential unchanged, resulting in continence. Normal voiding is the result of changes in both of these pressure factors: urethral pressure falls and bladder pressure rises.
The body stores urine — water and wastes removed by the kidneys — in the urinary bladder, a balloon-like organ. The bladder connects to the urethra, the tube through which urine leaves the body.
During urination, detrusor muscles in the wall of the bladder contract, forcing urine out of the bladder and into the urethra. At the same time, sphincter muscles surrounding the urethra relax, letting urine pass out of the body. Incontinence will occur if the bladder muscles suddenly contract (detrusor muscle) or muscles surrounding the urethra suddenly relax (sphincter muscles).
Urination, or voiding, is a complex activity. The bladder is a balloonlike muscle that lies in the lowest part of the abdomen. The bladder stores urine, then releases it through the urethra, the canal that carries urine to the outside of the body. Controlling this activity involves nerves, muscles, the spinal cord and the brain.
The bladder is made of two types of muscles: the detrusor, a muscular sac that stores urine and squeezes to empty, and the sphincter, a circular group of muscles at the bottom or neck of the bladder that automatically stay contracted to hold the urine in and automatically relax when the detrusor contracts to let the urine into the urethra. A third group of muscles below the bladder (pelvic floor muscles) can contract to keep urine back.
A baby's bladder fills to a set point, then automatically contracts and empties. As the child gets older, the nervous system develops. The child's brain begins to get messages from the filling bladder and begins to send messages to the bladder to keep it from automatically emptying until the child decides it is the time and place to void.
Failures in this control mechanism result in incontinence. Reasons for this failure range from the simple to the complex.
Patients with incontinence should be referred to a medical practitioner specializing in this field. Urologists specialize in the urinary tract, and some urologists further specialize in the female urinary tract. A urogynecologist is a gynecologist who has special training in urological problems in women. Family physicians and internists see patients for all kinds of complaints, and are well trained to diagnose and treat this common problem. These primary care specialists can refer patients to urology specialists if needed.
A careful history taking is essential especially in the pattern of voiding and urine leakage as it suggests the type of incontinence faced. Other important points include straining and discomfort, use of drugs, recent surgery, and illness.
The physical examination will focus on looking for signs of medical conditions causing incontinence, such as tumors that block the urinary tract, stool impaction, and poor reflexes or sensations, which may be evidence of a nerve-related cause.
A test often performed is the measurement of bladder capacity and residual urine for evidence of poorly functioning bladder muscles.
Other tests include:
Patients are often asked to keep a diary for a day or more, up to a week, to record the pattern of voiding, noting times and the amounts of urine produced.
Research projects that assess the efficacy of anti-incontinence therapies often quantify the extent of urinary incontinence. The methods include the 1-h pad test, measuring leakage volume; using a voiding diary, counting the number of incontinence episodes (leakage episodes) per day; and assessing of the strength of pelvic floor muscles, measuring the maximum vaginal squeeze pressure.
Treatment options range from conservative treatment, behavior management, bladder retraining,[10] pelvic floor therapy, collecting devices (for men), fixer-occluder devices for incontinence (in men), medications and surgery.[11] The success of treatment depends on the correct diagnoses.[12] Weight loss is recommended in those who are obese.[13]
Exercising the muscles of the pelvis such as with Kegel exercises are a first line treatment for women with stress incontinence.[13] Efforts to increase the time between urination, known as bladder training, is recommended in those with urge incontinence.[13] Both these may be used in those with mixed incontinence.[13]
Small vaginal cones of increasing weight may be used to help with exercise.[14]
Biofeedback uses measuring devices to help the patient become aware of his or her body's functioning. By using electronic devices or diaries to track when the bladder and urethral muscles contract, the patient can gain control over these muscles. Biofeedback can be used with pelvic muscle exercises and electrical stimulation to relieve stress and urge incontinence.
Time voiding while urinating and bladder training are techniques that use biofeedback. In time voiding, the patient fills in a chart of voiding and leaking. From the patterns that appear in the chart, the patient can plan to empty his or her bladder before he or she would otherwise leak. Biofeedback and muscle conditioning, known as bladder training, can alter the bladder's schedule for storing and emptying urine. These techniques are effective for urge and overflow incontinence[citation needed]
A 2013 randomized controlled trial found no benefit of adding biofeedback to pelvic floor muscle exercise in stress urinary incontinence, but observing improvements in both groups.[15][non-primary source needed] In another randomized controlled trial the addition of biofeedback to the training of pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, improved pelvic floor muscle function, reduced urinary symptoms, and improved of the quality of life.[16][non-primary source needed]
A number of medications exist to treat incontinence including: fesoterodine, tolterodine and oxybutynin.[17] While a number appear to have a small benefit, the risk of side effects are a concern.[17] For every ten or so people treated only one will become able to control their urine and all medication are of similar benefit.[18]
Medications are not recommended for those with stress incontinence and are only recommended in those who have urge incontinence who do not improve with bladder training.[13]
Surgery may be used to alleviate incontinence after other treatments have been tried and found not to be effective. Urodynamic testing seems to confirm that surgical restoration of vault prolapse can cure motor urge incontinence. In those with problems following prostate surgery there is little evidence regarding the use of surgery.[19]
The procedure of choice for stress urinary incontinence in females is what is called a sling procedure. A sling usually consists of a synthetic mesh material in the shape of a narrow ribbon but sometimes a biomaterial (bovine or porcine) or the patients own tissue that is placed under the urethra through one vaginal incision and two small abdominal incisions. The idea is to replace the deficient pelvic floor muscles and provide a backboard of support under the urethra.
The tension-free transvaginal tape(TVT) sling procedure treats urinary stress incontinence by positioning a polypropylene mesh tape underneath the urethra. The 20-minute outpatient procedure involves two miniature incisions and has an 86-95% cure rate. Complications, such as bladder perforation, can occur in the retropubic space if the procedure is not done correctly. This minimally invasive procedure is a common treatment for stress urinary incontinence.
The transobturator tape (TOT) sling procedure aims to eliminate stress urinary incontinence by providing support under the urethra. This minimally invasive procedure eliminates retropubic needle passage and involves inserting a mesh tape under the urethra through three small incisions in the groin area. While the procedure has shown risks during its infancy, recent developments have increased the cure rate to 90%.
The mini-sling procedure has reported short term cure rates of 67% to 83%.
The needleless sling is a single incision TOT. It is implanted via one unique incision. The needleless has approximately 136% more surface area than the mini sling, which may better support the pelvic floor and urethra, and no sharp instruments are required to implant the sling besides the scalpel used to make the incision, which may enhance patient comfort.
The re-adjustable sling consists of a standard synthetic mesh sling combined with sutures that attach to an implantable tensioning device that resides permanently under the skin in the abdominal wall. Once implanted, this Readjustable Mechanical External (REMEEX) device can be re-accessed under local anesthesia to fine tune the sling should incontinence reappear months or years after the initial surgery.[20]
Most stress incontinence in women results from the bladder dropping down toward the vagina. Therefore, common surgery for stress incontinence involves pulling the bladder up to a more normal position. Working through an incision in the vagina or abdomen, the surgeon raises the bladder and secures it with a string attached to muscle, ligament or bone. For severe cases of stress incontinence, the surgeon may secure the bladder with a wide sling. This not only holds up the bladder but also compresses the bottom if the bladder and the top of the urethra, further preventing leakage.
The Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz (MMK) procedure, also known as retropubic suspension or bladder neck suspension surgery, is performed by a surgeon in a hospital setting. Developed in 1949 by doctors Victor F. Marshall (1913–2001), a urologist, Andrew Anthony Marchetti (1901–1970), an OB/GYN, and Kermit E. Krantz (OB/GYN) is the standard by which new procedures are measured. The patient is placed under general anesthesia, and long, thin, flexible tube (catheter) is inserted into the bladder through the narrow tube (urethra) that drains the body's urine. An incision is made across the abdomen, and the bladder is exposed. The bladder is separated from surrounding tissues. Stitches (sutures) are placed in these tissues near the bladder neck and urethra. The urethra is then lifted, and the sutures are attached to the pubic bone itself, or to tissue (fascia) behind the pubic bone. The sutures support the bladder neck, helping the patient gain control over urine flow. Approximately 85% of women who undergo the Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedure are cured of their stress incontinence.
Individuals who continue to experience urinary incontinence need to find a management solution that matches their individual situation.
Collecting systems (for men) – consists of a sheath worn over the penis funneling the urine into a urine bag worn on the leg. These products come in a variety of materials and sizes for individual fit. Studies[21] show that urisheaths and urine bags are preferred over absorbent products – in particular when it comes to 'limitations to daily activities'. Solutions exist for all levels of incontinence. Advantages with collecting systems are that they are discreet, the skin stays dry all the time, and they are convenient to use both day and night. Disadvantages are that it is necessary to get measured to ensure proper fit and you need a health care professional to write a prescription for them.
Absorbent products (include shields, undergarments, protective underwear, briefs, diapers, adult diapers and underpants) are the most well know product types to manage incontinence. They are generally easy to get hold of in pharmacies or supermarkets and thus very popular. The advantages of using these are that they barely need any fitting or introduction by a health care specialist. The disadvantages with absorbent products are that they can be bulky, leak, have odors and can cause skin breakdown.
Fixer-occluder devices (for men) are strapped around the penis, softly pressing the urethra and stopping the flow of urine. This management solution is only suitable for light or moderate incontinence.
Indwelling catheters (also known as foleys) are very often used in hospital settings or if the user is not able to handle any of the above solutions himself. The indwelling catheter is typically connected to a urine bag that can be worn on the leg or hang on the side of the bed. Indwelling catheters need to be changed on a regular basis by a health care professional. The advantage of indwelling catheters are, that the urine gets funneled away from the body keeping the skin dry. The disadvantage, however, is that it is very common to get urinary tract infections when using indwelling catheters.[22]
Intermittent catheters are single use catheters that are inserted into the bladder to empty it, and once the bladder is empty they are removed and discarded. Intermittent catheters are primarily used for retention (inability to empty the bladder) but for some people can be used to reduce / avoid incontinence.
Individuals with urinary incontinence have benefited from recent advances in personal urine drainage device technology, which now allow for a direct closed-system connection from the stoma/catheter/sheath via medical tubing to a wall-mounted, one-way valve located by the individual's night-stand. Such devices provide immediate urine drainage via the plumbing, bi-passing the need for intermediate leg bags and night bags, which require repeated emptying and cleaning. Such systems are relatively new however, although they are appearing with more frequency at hospitals, long-term care facilities, rehabilitation centers, as well as private residential installations. See U-Drain:Patented Personal Urine Drainage System.
Globally, up to 35% of the population over the age of 60 years is estimated to be incontinent.[23] In 2014, urinary leakage affected between 30% and 40% of people over 65 years of age living in their own homes or apartments in the U.S.[24] Twenty-four percent of older adults in the U.S. have moderate or severe urinary incontinence that should be treated medically.[24]
Bladder control problems have been found to be associated with higher incidence of many other health problems such as obesity and diabetes. Difficulty with bladder control results in higher rates of depression and limited activity levels.[25]
Incontinence is expensive both to individuals in the form of bladder control products and to the health care system and nursing home industry. Injury related to incontinence is a leading cause of admission to assisted living and nursing care facilities. More than 50% of nursing facility admissions are related to incontinence.[26]
Incontinence happens less often after age 5: About 10 percent of 5-year-olds, 5 percent of 10-year-olds, and 1 percent of 18-year-olds experience episodes of incontinence. It is twice as common in girls as in boys.
Bladder symptoms affect women of all ages. However, bladder problems are most prevalent among older women.[27] Women over the age of 60 years are twice as likely as men to experience incontinence; one in three women over the age of 60 years are estimated to have bladder control problems.[23] One reason why women are more affected is the weakening of pelvic floor muscles by childbirth.[28]
Men tend to experience incontinence less often than women, and the structure of the male urinary tract accounts for this difference. It is common with prostate cancer treatments. Both women and men can become incontinent from neurologic injury, congenital defects, strokes, multiple sclerosis, and physical problems associated with aging.
While urinary incontinence affects older men more often than younger men, the onset of incontinence can happen at any age. Estimates in the mid-2000s suggested that 17 percent of men over age 60, an estimated 600,000 men, experienced urinary incontinence, with this percentage increasing with age.[29]
The management of urinary incontinence with pads is mentioned in the earliest medical book known, the Ebers Papyrus (1500 BC).[30]

Edge of Thorns 3 - Pt 18Part 18She's probably not in the living room, but we should split up to search the other places...The writer scanned the room quickly. "She couldn't have gotten too far, but let's start on the outside and work our way in. We know she's not in the kitchen, and it doesn't look like she's here." He turned to the other two. "Enya, check downstairs and make sure she didn't head outside.""On it," she agreed, hurrying through the open door and down the steps.Nathan looked at the angel. "Micah, if you could take the apartment...""I will start start in the bedroom," he said with a slight bow of his head, also noticing it was the only other door open. Nathan nodded then moved towards the door leading up and outside."And I'll check the roof," he said to himself.It had been a while since he'd taken the stairs up to Alton's rooftop garden; the last time he'd been there he'd climbed the fire escape, and a very angry teenager had tried to murder him. He wondered how Wren was doin
Edge of Thorns 3 - Pt 17Part 17Something to pass the time is better than nothing."I'm too paranoid to sleep now," Nathan said, only half joking. "Is there anything we can make that doesn't involve the oven? I think some sweets may ease everyone's nerves." He looked at Lidia in his arms, who had stopped crying but was still curled closely to him.Enya smiled and lifted one shoulder, starting back into the kitchen. "We can check. I think I spotted some no-bake boxes in there when I was hunting for stuffing ingredients. Let's go take a look."The writer nodded and carefully stood, Lidia adjusting her hold while he carried her. Once in the kitchen, he set the child on the chair she'd been sitting in before, then turned to look at the open pantry while Enya skimmed through it."Hmm," she mumbled, grabbing the first box she spotted. "How does peanut butter bars sound? Looks like he's got two boxes here; we could make a double batch."Nathan moved behind her and nodded. "Sounds like a plan to me."Li
Edge of Thorns 3 - Pt 15Part 15She's young; showing her will probably be the easiest way to explain, without getting into too many complicated details.Nathan drew a deep breath, held it, then released it slowly. "I think," he said carefully. "I think it would be easier to show her." He cast a glance at Alton. "Trying to explain things would get complicated, but she should at least know there are... angels about?"Putting his glasses on again and staring at him curiously, a small smile spread across the bookseller's lips. "I suppose, for a child so young, simple is probably best." He looked on into the kitchen. "Though it's a shame that I must be her introduction, and not one of the other, more angelic two.""Don't say that." Nathan could hear the sadness in his tone. "There are times where you are far more angel than devil yourself.""Of course," Alton agreed bitterly, giving him a smirk. "I could hardly call myself the father of lies if I wasn't also the master of all forms of deception. Seem
Edge of Thorns 3 - Pt 14Part 14I know: I'll tell him about Wren. There is plenty to worry about his safety.The writer sighed. He really couldn't give him more information without telling too much. "I'm worried about Wren," he finally admitted. "It's bad enough I've got to deal with these sisters, and (like you mentioned) I've been in the hospital plenty for it. But I didn't lose and arm, and I'm not completely incapacitated. He's just a kid, Scott; what if they try to finish him off?"The reporter frowned and nodded slowly, as if he was carefully considering this information. "Yeah, I can see why that'd worry you." He began to rise from his seat. "Well, I've done my prying. I think I'll spend the rest of my evening going for a ride while the weather's still good for it. Enjoy the leftovers." Scott made his way over to the door, but stopped, looking back. "You doing anything for Thanksgiving? Enya's made her own plans to spend it with Alton and his group, and being that it's right around the co

Treatments & Symptom Management There are a variety of treatments available for Parkinson's. This section gives an overview of each of these. Select from the list of links below to find out more.
Drug Treatments There is no cure for Parkinson's at present. Drugs are used to try to control symptoms of Parkinson's. There are no perfect drugs, although there are many promising developments. The main aims of drug treatments for Parkinson's are to:
In most newly diagnosed people considerable improvements can be achieved by careful introduction of anti-parkinsonian drugs. As Parkinson's is a very individual condition, medication is prescribed and adapted to individual needs. Response to medication varies from person to person and not every medication will be considered suitable for everyone. It is important to discuss appropriate medication or any changes in medication with your health care professional. It is important to also maintain a healthy lifestyle, focusing on exercise, relaxation and diet. Multidisciplinary Support Early access to a multidisciplinary support team is important. These teams may include doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, dietitians, social workers and specialist nurses. Members of the team assess the person with Parkinson's and identify any potential difficulties, focusing on improved movement, independence and quality of life. There are a number of multidisciplinary teams in Victoria that specialise in Parkinson's management. Complementary Therapy This fact sheet on complementary therapy is provided courtesy of the Parkinson's Disease Society U.K. Surgical Intervention Neurosurgery (brain surgery) is an option to treat Parkinson's symptoms; however, it is not suitable for everyone. There are strict criteria and guidelines as to who can be a candidate for surgery, and this is something that only your doctor and you can decide. The three commonly used forms of surgery are:
Symptom Management 1. Mobility: Rigidity and slowness of movement are the two most frustrating aspects. Common difficulties are:
2. Eating and Drinking:
3. Constipation:
4. Urinary Incontinence:
5. Communication
Parkinson's affects the control of muscle co-ordination and therefore a person's ability to communicate. The symptoms of tremor, stiffness and slowness can also impact upon the person's verbal and non-verbal methods of communicating with others.
Non-Verbal Communication
Facial Expression:
Parkinson's can cause considerable difficulties in a person's ability to communicate with others. Speech can be affected in volume, tone, inflection and pace. Facial expression may become mask-like and limb movement restricted. Handwriting can become smaller and smaller until it is indiscernible. These problems however, can be overcome by understanding the complexities of the illness. Concentrate on every movement and one movement only. Regular exercise of everyday movements provides valuable practice and precision. Reduce stress by using relaxation and preparation. Maintain independence and dignity by refusing to allow others to speak for you. Social Isolation: There are a number of factors in relation to Parkinson's Disease which can contribute to the social withdrawal of the sufferer. As Parkinson's Disease is a chronic illness, the potential for these factors influencing the individual become greater over a very long period.
1. Communication Difficulties: As explained previously, there are a number of physical restrictions which can impede the person's ability to communicate with others. The person with Parkinson's must be given time and not rushed when asked to respond. An empathic attitude will reduce stress and greatly facilitate their ability to communicate. People with Parkinson's should have social interaction incorporated into their daily activities programme. Education for others, as well as family members etc, will reduce embarrassment for the person with Parkinson's 2. Physical Symptoms: The most obvious symptom is tremor. Many people with Parkinson's are extremely embarrassed and attempt to hide the offending limb. Dyskinesias, or abnormal wriggling movements, may also cause distress. In both cases, it is important to reduce the amount of stress the person experiences as this will exacerbate the condition. We encourage people with Parkinson's to minimize the effect of the movement by stabilising the limb. The tremor is reduced if the limb is involved in purposeful movement, so playing with coins etc. is useful. Dyskinesias may be reduced with a reduction in levodopa intake, though this may cause Parkinson's symptoms to return 3. Decreased Mobility: As the illness progresses this becomes the largest factor in contributing to the individual's social isolation. Their ability to physically walk from their home to other areas decreases as symptoms become more severe and medication less effective. Tasks such as, climbing stairs, using escalators, and generally moving around busy areas such as shopping centres becomes nearly impossible. Regular medication reviews to ensure pharmacological treatment is optimally effective and side effects are kept to a minimum, coupled with the use of external cues and other movement strategies can address the problems of decreased mobility 4. Decreased Ability to use Transport: As well as a decrease in the person's functional mobility, they will also experience difficulty in using various forms of transport eg. driving a motor vehicle. The decrease in reaction time, ability to navigate, fine motor co-ordination, and general limb mobility make it increasingly difficult for the person to have full control of the motor vehicle. Some people with Parkinson's may require limitations on their licence, or even cancellation. It is advisable to refer people to occupational therapy for a full driving assessment 5. Cognitive Difficulties: People with Parkinson's may also be experiencing concurrent cognitive impairment, which will impede their ability to follow simple instructions or utilise aids such as cue cards, diaries etc. Difficulty with storing and recalling items from memory is commonly reported and thus the use of a diary or personal messages is recommended. Distraction whilst performing tasks can cause further complications. Encourage the person to break complex tasks into single steps, mentally rehearse each step, concentrate fully on each step and not be distracted by environmental factors 6. Lethargy: All people with Parkinson's report lethargy to some degree. This should be reduced with effective pharmacological management. Encouraging the person to identify factors which increase/decrease lethargy will help them maintain independence and optimal level of functioning. Other family members should be told about this phenomenon. The person should be encouraged to take regular rest periods to establish stable sleep patterns 7. Depression: At some stage, up to 90% of people with Parkinson's may experience depression to some degree. Anti-depressant medication may be necessary for more severe cases, for others supportive counselling and education may be appropriate. Depression can result from the grief process at being diagnosed with Parkinson's, loss of mobility, loss of independence, and a loss of general control over one's life. This symptom may also be due to other chemical changes occuring within the brain 8. Myths about Parkinson's Disease: The greatest factor at present which contributes to the social isolation of people with Parkinson's is their preconceived ideas or myths about the condition. Many people worry that Parkinson's will either kill them, be inherited by their children, make them totally physically incapacitated, or directly result in dementia. These of course are all untrue. Education at the time of diagnosis is vital in dispelling myths and enlisting the participation of the person and their family in the ongoing management of Parkinson's Disease. Supportive counselling to allow the individual and their family the opportunity to express emotions such as anger, frustration, fear etc. within a safe environment is extremely therapeutic. Most people worry about what others will think and therefore attempt to hide their Parkinson's. Acceptance of the illness and participation in management decisions through education will encourage the person to maintain independence and optimal functioning. As well as individual education, broader public awareness campaigns and specific inservice education sessions for health providers will improve understanding of the illness and how we can lessen the stigma associated with Parkinson's Disease.

Once Again Makhteshim Agan And Control Solutions Inc. Win In Court, Dismissing BASF Appeal On Patent Infringement Claim
TEL-AVIV, Israel and PASADENA, Texas, March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Ruling reaffirms MAI's right to manufacture, market and sell Fipronil based products
The Federal Circuit decision confirms that customers can continue to use the Taurus [ TM ] product as per the labeled instructions
Makhteshim Agan Group (MAI) and Control Solutions, Inc. (CSI) announced today that on March 20, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, ruled by unanimous decision to dismiss an appeal submitted by BASF. The decision affirmed a ruling by U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina that the product known as Taurus™ SC, does not infringe U.S. Patent Number 6,414,010 or U.S. Patent Number 6,835,743.
Immediately, the Federal Circuit decision confirms and authorizes the continuation of U.S. marketplace activity and customer engagement in relation to Taurus [ TM ] SC product sales. BASF has maintained longstanding allegations beginning in April 2010, of patent infringement against MANA and CSI in regards to the Taurus [ TM ] SC brand. Both in the district and the appeal cases throughout the last three years, MAI has been favored in the Court ruling which determined that they do not infringe the claims of any patent. The Federal Circuit decision on March 20, 2013 finally puts to rest any question of whether the Taurus [ TM ] SC product infringes upon BASF or its patent holdings. Mr. Shaul Friedland, Head of MAI ' s Americas region says, "Throughout this case, MAI has maintained a corporate position and opinion that BASF's claims have been without merit. MAI and CSI remained steadfast in their belief that the Court would deny the opposing side's motions and appeals. Fipronil based solutions are one component in our broad portfolio of reliable solutions offered to customers around the globe. With customer needs in our focus we intend to continue to broaden and enhance our offering." Mr. Mark Boyd, President and CEO of CSI says, "We are pleased that this matter is finally resolved and are looking forward to service additional customers who still had some concern. CSI is proud to be a leading supplier of high quality, efficacious tools for the professional termite control sector. Taurus [ TM ] SC is a trusted product throughout the industry - meeting a specific need with extremely high demand." In June 2011, MAI's affiliate CSI launched sales of fipronil-based products under the brand names Taurus [ TM ] SC for the professional pest control market, and Prefurred ™ for companion animal use. Fipronil is utilized for termite prevention and treatment, flea, ant and tick control, and as a broad-spectrum insecticide for crop markets in a variety of branded products throughout the world. The active ingredient is used in crop protection mainly for treatment of cotton, potatoes, rice and seed treatment in addition to broad uses for non-crop applications.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Shearer hints at Owen recall
08 May 2009 - 08:09:30
Alan Shearer has hinted that Michael Owen is in line for a recall to the Newcastle United starting line-up for Monday's must-win encounter with Middlesbrough.
Owen, 29, was dropped for last weekend's 3-0 defeat at Liverpool which edged the Magpies closer to relegation to the Championship.
The England striker is the club's top scorer, but has not found the net since January.
However, interim boss Shearer has hinted that Owen could be recalled for the relegation showdown with their local rivals at St James' Park.
When asked what response Owen would have to being dropped, he said: "I know the response I would get to be honest because he is that type of lad and he is that type of professional.
"It was a very, very difficult decision, without a doubt.
"He was disappointed, but he took it in a very professional way, as you would expect because of what he is and who he is."

So my old PC was getting long in the tooth. A dual-core processor was good enough but for the next two to three years, a quad-core would have to be the minimum requirement.
While deciding the PC configuration I wanted was simple enough, I was not too keen on assembling the whole setup myself. Been there, done that. Not only did that involve having someone to help me carry all the components from Sim Lim Square (SLS), I probably had to spend at least half an hour screwing in the components. So, what about getting the retailers at SLS to fix everything up for me?
With that in mind, I walked into a PC retailer at SLS. It turned out that assembly was free, due to the fact that I bought almost all the components from them. However, the salesperson warned me that it would take some time as there was a queue, with two other PCs ahead of mine. He was certainly right about that.
It took roughly an hour and a half for my PC to be assembled. Prior to getting the phone call from the shop, I had already dropped by once to check on the progress. Nothing had been started then. Unfortunately, the tech guy doing the assembly was unable to give me any estimated completion time and since they had already removed the components from their boxes in advance, I couldn't even change my mind and bring everything home to DIY myself.
The end result: a PC that worked fine with excellent cable management. Now I'm not saying I couldn't have done this myself, but I would probably have been less thorough in the cable management aspect. I still had to install Windows myself but the assembly was definitely excellent.
So, the next time you're thinking of ordering a custom PC at SLS, go during off-peak hours and you're likely to get your PC done in half the time it took for mine. But do your homework first and know what you're getting. As for me, I'm off to enjoy my new PC!
Sidenote: Turns out that the GTX 460, which I got and which is excellent value for everything else, is totally rubbish in the game I'm playing. The fix didn't seem to be forthcoming anytime soon so I switched to ATI instead.

Last month, along with the Space Dandy news, Toonami announced that for December, the Cartoon Network block will have straight weeks of movie nights. In a follow-up, the specific movies and schedules were announced today. See what to expect when after the jump.
It is announced today that the Japanese government will award Katsuhiro Otomo, 59-year-old manga/anime creator who is best known for his internationally acclaimed work Akira, the medal of honor with purple ribbon on November 3. Hit the jump for more.
I previously posted an article about cross-dressing boys before, so I thought it would be only fair to also report on cross-dressing girls in Japan. Meet Akira, a popular female model in Japanese pop-culture fashion magazine KERA. She is featured in a new interview by VICE Japan on the subject of cross-dressing as a part of Japanese culture.. Watch the video after the jump!
After being licensed by FUNimation last year as previous license holder Bandai Entertainment was slowly winding down operations, the first signs of the forthcoming Akira license rescue have appeared thanks to a new teaser trailer for the forthcoming release now confirmed for a Blu-Ray/DVD combo pack. Hit the jump for the teaser trailer.
It appears the Hollywood adaptation of Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira still has some life left in it, as Variety reports that Jaume Collet-Serra (House of Wax, Orphan, Unknown) is in talks with Warner Bros. to return as director. Collet-Serra left when production stalled early last year. More after the jump.
In a recent interview with a Japanese TV program ZIP for his latest film Short Peace, Katsuhiro Otomo commented briefly on the possibility of the sequel for his most famous anime work Akira. He said, "I know everyone has been expecting me to make Akira 2. But I won't do that." Check more comments after the jump.
After posting a pair of cityscapes and a look at a non-teenage version of Kaneda last November, movie/comic artist Rodolfo Dimaggio (Hulk, Iron Man, Green Lantern, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull) has expanded his look into the design work created for the shelved Hollywood live-action Akira. Check it out after the jump.
In May 2011, before the project got shelved due to budget issues, before Jaume Collet-Serra took over, but after Ruairi Robinson took his turn, Albert Hughes (From Hell, The Book of Eli) walked away from plans to direct a Hollywood live-action adaptation of the Akira anime/manga. Tommy Lee Edwards has now posted a pair of design illustrations from the Hughes iteration. Get a look after the jump.
If you follow comics, especially art or indie comics, you'll often hear about interesting collaborative projects. However, this one is so crazy that it seems inspired by one of the drugs the Clown gang sells. James Harvey's Bartkira Project is a comics event where every participant takes five pages from the original Akira manga, to collectively redraw the entirety of the work, in their own styles, with characters from The Simpsons. More after the jump.
Bandai Namco Game's official online store LaLaBit Market has started accepting pre-orders for the limited edition G-shock collaborative watches with Katsuhiro Otomo's epoch-making manga Akira. Otomo himself gave his full cooperation in the making of the products. Check the product photos after the jump.
Hopefully you're reading this when it's still December 6th in your time zone. Older anime fans are sure to remember Akira's classic promise that "Neo-Tokyo is about to E.X.P.L.O.D.E." Well, the reason that there is a Neo-Tokyo is that the seminal sci-fi manga, first published starting December 20, 1982, opened with a notice that "at 2:17PM on December 6th, 1992, a new type of bomb exploded over the metropolitan area of Japan." More after the jump.
