Opportunistic Infections: Treatment |
Question | Discussion | References | CME Credit Case 9: Discussion- CryptosporidiosisBackground and EpidemiologyCryptosporidium species are intracellular, spore-forming protozoan parasites that infect the epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract[1,2,3]. Ten species of Cryptosporidium exist, with most human infections caused by C. parvum and less frequently by C. hominis and C. meleagridis[1,2]. Infection with Cryptosporidium in immunocompetent persons often results in asymptomatic or mild self-limited disease, but in HIV-infected patients, particularly those with low CD4 counts, infection may result in chronic or life-threatening diarrhea, or extra-intestinal disease[1,2,4,5,6]. In developed countries, an estimated 14% of AIDS patients with diarrhea have Cryptosporidium infection[1]. Before the widespread use of HAART, Cryptosporidium oocysts (or spores) were detected in up to 4% of HIV-infected patients in the United States[5]. More recently, infection rates in developed countries have decreased dramatically, with a contemporary incidence of cryptosporidiosis amongst AIDS patients estimated at less than 1 per 100 person-years[2]. Life Cycle and TransmissionHuman infection occurs with ingestion of viable Cryptosporidium oocysts. After the oocysts are ingested, they release sporozoites, which then invade epithelial cells in the gastrointestinal tract, primarily in the small intestine (Figure 1)[1]. After entry into the epithelial cells, the sporozoites mature into trophozoites, which then reproduce in two cycles. In the asexual cycle the organism undergoes asexual reproduction (schizony), producing merozoites (type I), which are emitted into the lumen of the intestine and infect other gastrointestinal epithelial cells, thus multiplying and locally increasing the organism burden[3]. In the sexual cycle, some of the merozoites (type II) attach to epithelial cells, mature into gametocytes, which are fertilized in the intestinal tract, and then form into oocysts. The oocysts then release sporozoites that can either reinfect the intestinal epithelium and start the life cycle anew or be shed in feces, capable of infecting others[1]. The Cryptosporidium oocysts passed via feces may subsequently be transmitted by human-to-human or human-to-animal contact, or by consumption of contaminated drinking water[2,7]. Person-to-person transmission requires ingestion of as few as 10 to 100 oocysts, with transmission rates as high as 19% among household contacts of individuals with acute cryptosporidiosis[3]. Cattle and sheep are common animal reservoirs of the parasite[1]. Risk FactorsPatients at highest risk for cryptosporidiosis are those with a low CD4 count or some other source of immunosuppression[2]. Additional persons at risk for the disease include family members, sexual partners, and healthcare workers who are in contact with infected individuals[1]. A study that analyzed data from 6,913 HIV-infected patients in New Orleans from 1990 to 1998 identified three important risk factors for developing clinical infection: CD4 count less than 100 cells/mm3, prior AIDS-defining illness, and age less than 35 years[8]. In this study, the investigators found that older age protected against development of cryptosporidiosis, possibly due to protective immunity from past exposures. Clinical ManifestationsAfter an incubation period of 7 to 10 days, infection of the gastrointestinal tract by Cryptosporidium impairs absorption and enhances secretion, typically leading to watery, non-bloody diarrhea[1]. The duration and severity of disease depend on the host immune response, ranging from an asymptomatic or mild self-limited illness, to chronic low-level diarrhea, to a profuse cholera-like illness[1,5]. Patients with a strong Cryptosporidium serologic response and previous exposure(s) are more likely to have asymptomatic infection, though they may still shed oocysts in feces and be contagious[5]. Patients' CD4 cell counts are a strong predictor of whether they will develop self-limited or persistent disease. In a retrospective analysis, HIV-infected patients with self-limited cryptosporidiosis had a mean CD4 count of 312 cells/mm3 compared to those with persistent infection, who had a mean CD4 count of 57 cells/mm3 (Figure 2)[4]. This same report found that 87% of patients with a CD4 count less than 140 cells/mm3 who had cryptosporidiosis developed persistent disease. Patients with fulminant infection typically have a CD4 count less than 50 cells/mm3, and these patients rarely completely clear the infection, presumably because the organism can use the biliary tree as a reservoir[1]. Fever occurs in up to one-third of patients, and abdominal cramping, nausea, weight loss, and malabsorption are common[1,2]. Extra-Intestinal ManifestationsPatients with advanced immunosuppression also have an increased risk for developing extra-intestinal disease, which usually occurs within the biliary tract, but case reports have documented infection in the lungs, stomach, pancreas, and middle ear[1]. When Cryptosporidium invades the epithelial cells of the biliary tract, the result may mimic primary sclerosing cholangitis, or lead to acalculous cholecystitis or papillary stenosis, which can cause pancreatitis[2,7]. Studies have revealed Cryptosporidium as the most commonly identified pathogen in cases of AIDS-related cholangiopathy[7]. Clinicians should consider this clinical entity in any HIV-infected patient presenting with fever, right upper quadrant abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. DiagnosisDiagnostic testing for Cryptosporidium should be performed in HIV-infected patients who develop acute diarrhea, chronic diarrhea, or biliary tract disease, especially if their CD4 count is less than 200 cells/mm3. The easiest way to confirm the diagnosis is to identify oocysts with microscopic examination of stool or tissue. Routine ova and parasite testing does not detect Cryptosporidium. The modified acid-fast stain, which stains the organism red, is the most common method used to detect Cryptosporidium on stool microscopic examination (Figure 3)[1,2]. Cryptosporidium can be differentiated from yeasts, which are similar size and shape but are not acid fast[2], and from other protozoan parasites, such as Cystoisospora (Isospora) belli and Cyclospora species, based on size (Figure 4). Patients with mild disease may require repeat stool testing due to the high false negative rates with low organism burden[2]. If modified acid fast staining is negative and clinical suspicion is high, direct immunofluorescence microscopy (Figure 5) and ELISA testing of stool have greater sensitivity and specificity[1,2]. Serologic testing of blood generally does not help in making the diagnosis, mainly because exposure to Cryptosporidium is common and healthy persons who do not have active disease may test positive[2]. Endoscopy is often normal, but patients with severe disease may have reduction of duodenal folds secondary to villous atrophy[7]. Hematoxylin and eosin stains or light microscopy may be performed from mucosal biopsies (Figure 6)[7] .If a patient demonstrates symptoms of biliary tract disease, an ultrasound is often the first test of choice, but endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is more sensitive[7]. General Approach to TreatmentPatients who are asymptomatic or have intact immune function generally do not require treatment for cryptosporidiosis. The primary treatment for AIDS patients with symptomatic cryptosporidiosis is to restore immune function with effective antiretroviral therapy (Figure 7 and Figure 8)[1,6,7]. Cell-mediated immunity is vital for protection against cryptosporidiosis, and in many cases, an increase in CD4 count to greater than 100 cells/mm3 may result in resolution of symptoms[2]. Patients with Cryptosporidium infection and CD4 cell counts greater than 350 likely will have a self-limited illness, but may benefit from antimicrobial therapy. Several antimicrobial agents have been studied for the treatment of cryptosporidiosis in HIV-infected patients, including nitazoxanide (Alinia), paromomycin (Humatin), and azithromycin (Zithromax). No antimicrobial agent, however, has been shown to be reliably effective against Cryptosporidium in the absence of antiretroviral therapy. When antimicrobial therapy is used in combination with antiretroviral therapy, nitazoxanide is the recommended agent[2]. Since patients with severe cryptosporidiosis typically have clinically-significant dehydration, supportive care with fluid rehydration and electrolyte repletion is an important component of therapy. Antimicrobial therapy has not been reliably effective against AIDS cholangiopathy, so if biliary disease is present, endoscopic therapy may be necessary. Specific interventions consist of sphincterotomy for papillary stenosis (which relieves cholangitis and may relieve pain, but does not improve survival), or cholecystectomy for cholecystitis (which does not clear the organism, indicating there may be a hepatic reservoir)[7].

The NAACP, the KKK, CARE (and others) are racially motivated organizations which promote one group of people over another. Their existance foments distrust, dislike and even hatred. There should be no credibility given to one that should not also be given to the other. In our society's current PC frame of mind, it is acceptable for an official to receive an award from the NAACP.
Why is it then not acceptable to accept an award from the KKK?
Diversity means difference. Part of what is wrong with our country is diversity and this PC emphasis on it. We need to concentrate on our commanalities not differences. WE SHOULD BE AMERICANS FIRST AND FOREMOST!
"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

I'm married to a wonderful man who manages to accept our bead-strewn home with astonishing grace. We've been together for 25 years. I have one grown son, Joshua, whose heart is as big as the world. I've dabbled in one artful thing or another my entire life but soon abandoned them due to lack of satisfaction (or more likely aggravation!) Then, about 5 years ago I discovered BEADS! I have ADD so it was quite the surprize to everyone in my family (especially my Mom, who has since passed on) when I not only 'stuck to it,' but flourished as well. All the members of my family have artistical gifts of one kind or another. My Mama sewed, crafted multimedia pieces, and painted figurines so life-like you expected them to move. Her greatest Gift was in teaching me and my sisters to believe in ourselves. My oldest sister sews beautifully, and has a wonderful eye for interior decorating. She also has a head for business and finances which I , unfortunately, lack. On to my baby sister who is very musically talented; she plays several instruments and sings like an angel. Her husband is also musically talented - they both devote their gifts to God by being involved in their churches' music program. Artistic gifts flow down from my Dad's side of the family as well, so I and my family are very blessed. I believe that all people are gifted in one way or another, and that all gifts are God-given. It is our responsibility to use what He has given us to the greatest extent we are able - I'm still working on that, and I have far yet to go. I'll get there eventually, After all, I'm not dead yet! My goal is to one day earn my living by making jewelry and teaching others so they might grow their talent as well or find peace in the rhythm of stitching one bead after another. I find bead weaving to be very therapuetic, and I love the pieces that I make but I'm also interested in other forms of jewelry making. So many ways to express oneself - so liitle time (and money) to explore all the mediums I'd like to try. So eventually, when I manage to get some photos uploaded, you'll find my work to be a bit on the eclectic side. I don't know if I'll ever find just one medium that I'll commit to soley, but finding the answer to that question is part of the journey of my life...who knows what's around the next bend or fork in the road - not I - that's what makes it all so exciting!

match me with someone who posted a recent picture. Although I'm
sure most women just want a pic of a guy's penis sent to them in a
text (btw, I'm joking and this is sarcasm for those of you that
don't get it) I'll be original and just post a douche-bag self pic
so they can see that I'm not fat. And maybe you can find me a girl
who likes puppies, traveling the world, and long walks on the beach
next time.

Thoughts on twisted treeline
For the most part I like twisted treeline as a map but there are a few things that I think need to be changed. I believe that the speed shrine, capture points need to be changed for sure.
The speed shrine seems a little uneccesary, it is a little to easy to move around the map as it is and this just makes it easier. The capture points as an idea I like but as for the spawn times for them, they need to be tweeked. The spawn time of 2min is either to early or to late, with minions spawning at 1:30 you will miss almost an entire wave if you stay and wait for the point. Also if you happen to have an early fight, you cannot even take the other teams capture point because they will spawn before you can even start capturing. Solutions to these that I can think of so far are that the speed shrine needs to be taken out of the game and maybe add some small walls to make it a little longer/harder to move around the map. As for the capture points they should either open at 1:30 so that you can capture and then go to lane without missing a whole wave. Or another option is to have the capture points open up later in the game say 5/10 min in. This would allow each team to get some items group and fight, in which an ace would probably lead to both capture points being taken by the winning team. To make it so that everyone is able to buy items at the same rate, until the capture points spawn all minions should be worth an extra 4 gold and then drop back to normal when the capture points open. Riot also adressed that they wanted to make it so that other champions would also be played in 3v3 not just bruisers and the occasional AP nuke. Although since I have been playing I have seen an even less amount of champions being played. It seems every game there is only bruisers like Olaf, Darius, Rengar ect... I don't think that this will ever change in 3v3 though since the whole premise is lots of small fights and skirmishes, which is where these champions shine. Just my ideas feel free to post you ideas and if you disagree I would to see why so include it in you post |
I agree with the problem of the shrine lockdowns, they're a tad too long. I think the cap time should start out short then progress as the game goes on, possibly adding more and more bonuses every time it's recaptured. Because capturing one for a small gold bonus is kinda unrewarding, so unless you know you can get both shrines there's no point in defending.
As for the speed boost shrine, I actually like the mobility of the map. The whole point of it is for more team fights, and shorter game time due to the lack of defense. The smallness and offensiveness of the map is a game choice, and in my opinion, a good one as it shakes up how you play. Everyone seems to want a small map that plays exactly like summoners rift. Which I think is a poor choice. I don't like some of the main play elements in classic, and this makes a good job at fixing them. Also, I've won and lost several battles with tons of different team builds. It's not how your team or the enemies is built but really how offensive you play/how well you build items. Hence the "OP" items. I've seen so many players thinking they can just use bruisers with their normal build and play push and shove. It's meant to be constantly offensive. And that's why I enjoy it more. It takes a lot of the slog out of games. And if you die, it's not because you didn't know how to defend, it's because you can't enage fights/control crowds. I have had no problems with what champs I play, from tank to squishy to bruiser I've had no issues. |

The BlogOnce More, with FeelingThere's nothing wrong with having been spectacularly wrong on Iraq. It's what the antiwar crowd has done since April 9 that's unforgivable.12:48 AM, Apr 24, 2003
• By JONATHAN V. LAST
Few of the people who opposed the war on grounds which have now been proved specious have made good. The New York Times's Nicholas Kristof went halfway, writing a column that acknowledged that he was wrong about the war becoming a bitter urban conflict. But he is quick to claim that while he and other antiwar voices were wrong, those that advocated the war were as well: No one got the level of resistance quite right. We doves correctly foresaw that the war would not be a cakewalk, but for all our hand-wringing, there was never prolonged street-to-street fighting in Baghdad. The ones who really blew it were the superraptors like Richard Perle, Douglas Feith and, to a lesser extent, Paul Wolfowitz . . . It's not clear what constitutes a cakewalk--or even that Kristof's "superraptors" ever promised one--but any honest appraisal of the war would conclude that the three-week conquest of Iraq was closer to a walkover than the quagmire Kristof predicted. Give Kristof credit: he at least admits that he was wrong, even if he wrongly insists the other side was, too. The same can't be said of many others. Even as Saddam's statue was being toppled on April 9, Salon's Joan Walsh passed immediately over the war and on to the next political clash: "We can cheer the Iraqis' liberation--and gear up to fight to make sure it's authentic, as the Pentagon draws up plans for postwar, post-Saddam Iraq." William Raspberry's April 14 column was boldly titled "No Apologies," and he delivered: Those who thought it was a bad idea for America to launch what was the moral equivalent of unilateral war on Iraq have nothing to apologize for. . . . Shouldn't the prime minister and all of us who thought the war was hasty and dangerous and wrongheaded admit that we were wrong? I mean, with the pictures of those Iraqis dancing in the streets, hauling down statues of Saddam Hussein and gushing their thanks to the Americans, isn't it clear that President Bush and Britain's Tony Blair were right all along? If we believe it's a good thing that Hussein's regime has been dismantled, aren't we hypocritical not to acknowledge Bush's superior judgment? Not at all. Yet Walsh and Raspberry and others who opposed the war want to immediately weigh in on the next big questions. Walsh writes that Rumsfeld wanted to fight the war "on the cheap" not because the Pentagon is broke, but because the administration's outrageous new military doctrine of preemption requires it. What good is declaring you're for preemptive protective strikes if you can't go in and prove you mean it? The new Bush doctrine required that the war in Iraq be a cakewalk, so as to send a message to our enemies in Iran, Syria, North Korea--wherever evildoers lurk--that they must tremble before our crushing military might. And if they didn't get the message, we would have enough troops and firepower left over from Iraq to deliver it more directly. Raspberry harrumphs that The neoconservative ideologues who brought us this war have spoken publicly and repeatedly about the need to go the rest of the way toward replacing all the Middle East dictatorships with democratic governments--whether or not we are invited to do so. Is Syria next? Iran? Egypt? But why should anyone take them seriously? They've been proven wrong on the question of the day and then failed to demonstrate any serious capacity for introspection. They're not public thinkers. They're not journalists. They're activists. Jonathan V. Last is online editor of The Weekly Standard. |

- In their excellent book _The Lord of the Rings: A
Reader's Companion_, Wayne G.Hammond and Christina
Scull write:
"haywards -- The term _hayward_ originally referred to
one who protected the fences around lands enclosed for
growing hay (Old English _hegeweard_), later more
generally applied to one who prevents cattle from
breaking through into enclosed fields with growing
crops." (p. 35)
There are two words _hay_ in English, of distinct
hay(1). Dried grass. AS. _hieg_ [i with a macron],
cognate with _hew_.
hay(2). Hedge, enclosure. AS. _hege_ ... Survives in
name _Hayward_, official protecting enclosures.
(Weekley, _Concise Etymological Dictionary of Modern
English_. Other etymological dictionaries say
basically the same, e.g. Skeat,
The dictionaries would seem to agree with the first
part of the definition as given by Hammond & Scull:
"one who protected the fences around lands enclosed".
What I am curious about is the "for growing hay" part.
To me, it sounds suspiciously like folk etymology, as
the OE word _hegeweard_ would have had no particular
connection to ModE _hay_ 'cut grass'.
Isn't the more general application--the "later" one
according to Hammond & Scull--in fact the older one?
Kind regards,
Fredrik Ström
[I can't answer this definitively myself, since Hammond
& Scull may have been citing a reference work to which
I don't have access. I will note that the OED appears to
support Fredrik's interpretation -- it gives the first element
in _hayward_ as hay(2) 'a hedge, a fence', and glosses the
word as 'an officer of a manor, township, or parish, having
charge of the fences and enclosures, esp. to keep cattle
from breaking through from the common into enclosed
fields; sometimes, the herdsman of the cattle feeding on
the common'. This makes no mention of any connection
with hay(1) 'dried grass'.
Wright's _English Dialect Dictionary_ and C.T. Onions'
_Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology_ are both in
accord with the OED on this point. Perhaps Wayne or
Christina might be able to comment? -- PHW] - You know, I've felt guilty for the better part of a decade for
my unthinking and unauthorized posting of that snippet on
Usenet- especially since soon therafter the copyright-law war
erupted with the Salo/Star/Fauskanger axis. Fortunately it seems
that it hasn't spread that far, since even Arden appears to have
been unaware of it (although it has turned up in a couple of
online "encyclopedias").
In any event, it's out, and surely there would be no harm if Wayne
Hammond and Christina Scull were to use it, since they carry the
I suspect that _asea aranion/athelas_ is one of those Q-S pairs
that aren't literal translations. Now, I'm no linguist; but we
can at least be certain that _asea_ and _athe-_ are equivalent
elements, and, as Frederik points out, that the Quenya assumed
or omitted the leaf-element. Or, viewed the other way around,
that the leaf-element was added by the Exiles when they formed
their Sindarin equivalent (acc. to the late note, the plant was
known to the medical loremasters of the Noldor- with no
indication whether the Sindar were aware of its properties, or
even if it was native to Middle-earth). The snippet's wording
has _asea_ regularly > _athe-_, "compounded with _-las_," which
to me suggests that the _-las_ element only entered with the
Sindarin conversion. Why would this be? Another note cited by
Wayne and Christina indicates that only the leaves were used,
which may be relevant. Or perhaps the linguistic loremasters
found "athe" alone to be ugly?
[Tolkien wrote in his note on "Stress" in Section I of Appendix E
that words in which the stress falls on the third syllable from the
end -- e.g. _Denethor, Fëanor_ -- "are favoured in the Eldarin
languages, especially Quenya." It seems natural then that the
medical loremasters of the Noldor, whose native tongue was
Quenya, would expand _athe-_ to the more euphonious (not to
mention distinctive) _athelas_. PHW]
One might speculate whether "aranion" was a pre- or post-
Downfall Numenorean addition ("balm" > "kingsbalm"), since the
specific association of healing with the King appears to have
been theirs, not the Elves'. This leads to yet another
question- whether Ad/CS _kingsfoil_ followed or in fact underlay
the hypothesised Num. addition of _aranion_ .
-- William Cloud Hicklin
> I think no-one queries the translation *'of kings'. However,
in the light of Tolkien's gloss on _athea_ (regularly > _asea_
after the change of Q. _th_ > _s_ described in 'The Shibboleth
of Feanor' [XII:331]), I'm not sure that the translation
*'leaf' should be defended (and I don't think Arden said so,
either). I think that the note on RC:183 is correct except for
the parenthesis, '(but if so, _athelas_ = ''leaf-leaf'')',
since the attested etymological connection between _athe-_ and
_asea_ does not imply that _athe-_ means 'leaf'. In the note on
RC:580 ll. 2-3 from bottom, perhaps one should substitute
Tolkien's actual gloss ('beneficial') for 'leaf' (or simply omit
the words 'leaf of kings')?>

What? Me, obsessed with editing? (bad prawn smiley)
This week I've reviewed Radthorne's novel over at scifidimensions, and I didn't just say nice stuff because he promised me free accomodation in the US and help seeking asylum. He really did a good job on his debut novel: RtKotaishi.
And I wrote 8,000 words in a week but that was small potatoes and at least 50% of it was absolute rubbish.

I'm nearly done with a major edit on Book 1, but then something happened. ironchef read it, kinda liked it, and he threw a few suggestions at me and pointed out a couple critical errors with my prose.
WOW! did it open my eyes to what was wrong. I'm nearly done with the grammer edit at this time, but when I went out and was looking at literary agents, I found they don't like books under 70k and want 80-120k. So I've decided to combine my second book with the first (meetings and legends). I didn't really care for the titles of those two books anyway. I've also added a short story that I'd like to see published with the two books entitled Kance Encounter. I've combined all three and entitled it Chance Encounters. Now I've got an impressive book in my hands (virtually speaking).
My next step, once I'm done with grammar, is to give the entire thing a massive facelift. With the suggestions that were given to me, I've re-titled some characters and researched their titles and this gave a whole new depth --that I hadn't planned on -- to the story. The towns and villages are taking shape. I'm reading books on the middle ages and adding tiny snippets into the story to make it more 'real'. I'm not changing the writing, just adding a little spice to the mix. This is intense.
And don't worry James, I've been editing my Book 1 going on 10 years now. I finally found out what was missing and I'm adding that to it now (grammar and realisim). You can say I was given an epiphany. My eyes are open and when I finish this edit (hopefully before month's end) I'll have this off to an agent or 2 (or 4). I've been gather a list of agents to submit to and I'm up to 15. I've got 2 on the top of my list that I'll be submitting to first. We'll see what happens. I'm back to editing. I'm on Chapter 13 (or 17) in Part 1. This is an exciting time. WOO~HOO!.

Short stories Arrows and Jac have slid off the editor's desk into the bin, both made it through prelim reading and both e mails were detailed and very sorry.... even said they liked the stories, but not for them.... typical.... one more out there and it is bound to fail...
Thinking of changing my middle name to that...
Ok... as for other work..... two joint projects and two personal ones in editing..
No new stuff written save for collab work and I am behind on that...
Not looking at new stuff until this editing is done, made up my mind on it...to be honest I need a break. Not from writing from RL for a while... Not just work, seem to be the carrier of the can of problems for the family lately.... leave it to ......... to sort out. *sigh*

Well, I've been something less than prolific lately, but it looks like that's all going to change.
Tired of advertising on my site, I've decided to go official, get a real hosting plan and a real domain name. This necessitated a change in interface, so I've spent a lot of time redesigning to site, importing the content in more bite-sized chunks (my old story-chunks were about 200k. New ones are closer to 50-75k), new color scheme, etc.
That's almost done. I'm now up to the fun part, which is updated all the content. The prototype is (for the curious) at http:\\noctis.virtualdogshit.com, and will be migrating to a commercial platform soon.
Wrote a new short story that looks, based on feedback I'm getting, like it's going to turn into something bigger. As with almost all my writing, responses are mixed, split pretty much evenly between liked it and hated it. It's cool, and it's different though, and I enjoyed writing it, which is good.
I've also almost finished Holy Land's first short story. The intrigue continues and I've finally figured out whose really behind the whole mess.
I feel another surge of writing coming on, and it's a familiar, wonderful feeling. Good mood today.
July 10th, 2004, 04:12 PM #98
Real Life has taken a lot of my time these last couple of weeks add to that working a few more hours. This leaves me feeling like a wet rag in the evenings... not my best time for writing. I write best in the mornings and early afternoons....
Anyway... managed to get "The Hat Man" edited again, smoother now and it has a better ending to chapter 10 and a new end chapter, number eleven. Though not sure on this.... as it does read as the beginning of the sequel!!
Chapter breakdown done, one page snyopsis to do. Then to choose the first lucky publisher to get a look at it...
Editing LRI, Map and Llafn Miestr on and off... Need to find the next mag to send Jac and Arrows too. Both good stories both got on to editors' desks, both slid into bin at the last hurdle.
I also owe HE a post on ten fingers... Hope to have a quiet day writing tomorrow if the world will allow.

Been doing a lot of critiquing lately. I belong to a community that is specifically a critique exchange, and combining that with some of the excellent stuff that's been posted here hasn't allowed me massive amounts of time to write.
I have, however, managed to bank out chapter 2 of Designing Drugs (now 'In Defense of Dominic'. I'd like to extend a hearty FU to several of the people on a writing community I used to frequent), as well as a new chapter of Smack, which was particularly hard because it's a flashback chapter about the happy times. I hate myself for what I'm doing to this character, I really do.
Today's project is Holy Land, which is provindg harder to write than I thought because I really didn't have a cohesive plan when I went into it. It's got cool atmosphere and characters, but GAH I can't for the life of me make the plot work.

Hmm I've decided to post in this progress thread in the hope that it will guilt me into writing.
I'm currently working on:
Main Fantasy WIP: 60k in, need to get into a daily routine again
Secondary Fantasy WIP: Need to finish detailed outline and start to write it (doesn't need to be as intensive as main WIP)
Couple of Children's books - 1k in one, and 4k in another, both supposed to be 6-8k long.
Actually, I quite often finish short stories, but I'd like to complete something longer. On the short story front I need to edit what I've got done and start submitting them again.

Keep at it mistri. Putting pressure on yourself is one way to get into it, but you can't put so much pressure that you lock yourself up. You must enjoy the process in order to enjoy your works. At least that's what I've found.
I wrote three more stories this week. I put my editor away for a brief time and wrote Mike Versus the Building (a true story that happened to a friend of mine. I embelished a little), Road Trip, and In My Brother's Shoes. I'll be posting about 9 more short stories I'm abandoning hope on. Those will be on my web page later today. I also plan on redoing my web page again. Not really sure yet.
I'm over 30% done editing my new and improved book 1. I hope to have it completed by the end of the week. My next step is to produce a high-quality synopsis and chapter-by-chapter write up. Once I have those in my hands I'll be doing a massive amount of submitting. I'm hoping to find a home for my book. I've got my fingers crossed.

For those who need a laugh, I've added a few new stories to my site. I'm still working on re-formatting the way they're displayed off the main page.
Read. Enjoy. Let me know what you think.
Many of the newer stories I posted on my page are either humor or too generic to be published. Just practicing. Just practicing.

I'm in chapter 5 of the revision of my SF WIP and last night I had a major brainstorming session with my collaborator for the other books in the series and we got most of the plot problems figured out, so things are going great right now. Just need the time to write it all down.

Fun fun fun.
Wrote a chapter of Smack (nee Untitled) which takes us back before the bad **** starts happening to show up more of the main character and his love. It came out about like I wanted it to. It's cute, it shows depth of feeling, and it's a nice break for the chapters after the MC brutally slaughters someone with a chainsaw (I'm all about pacing these days, lol).
Today I started to write the next chapter, which is taking us back to the bloody and unpleasant present, but I realized I'm in too good a mood, so I settled on revising some of my older stuff and throwing out critiques in various places.
Tomorrow I plan to attempt to get myself in the mindframe to write more Smack. I really, really wanna finish it, because I have a lot of new ideas that are nearing the completion of their gestation period.

This is a fantastic color! The packaging is adorable, too! But, the main problem is the lasting power. It disappears within 2 hours. I hope I can find a different blush that's the same shade but better lasting power!

At first I was worried that BeneFit's Dandelion would be too "pink" for my slightly olive skintone. I was pleased to find that the color is subtle enough to look great as either a blush or an all-over complexion brightener. The powder contains just the right amount of shimmer (barely noticeable, but makes you look slightly glowy), and I LOVE the wide brush that comes with the product. At first I thought $26 was a bit much, but it lasts forever. Definitely a great beauty investment.

Sigh. I absolutely love this color. It is a pale, delicate pink that looks great on PPP skin. And what's more, it comes with a terrific brush. It's a unique shape, kind of a broad rectangle, but it works very nicely.
However, it KILLS me that it comes in a bulky cardboard box. They made a great color and they sell it with a brush that works, and because of that it would be a great portable blush if it were not for the fact that the box is the size of my damn fist.
If they make it in a flat compact someday, I'll buy it forever.

I have been wanting this in the back of my mind since it came out, but every opportunity I had to buy it, I managed to talk myself out of it ('it's a color I could find anywhere'-'I won't be able to travel with it in that packaging'-'it looks so powdery, it probably won't look natural'-'it's so over-hyped, hype products are never worth it' etc.) but finally, my SO ended up buying it for me after he saw me pick it up and put it back down about 4 times in Sephora. Thank Goodness!! This has become a total staple for me.
At first, I thought all of my doubts were true-- the first day I wore it, I was slightly underwhelmed, it was pretty, but $26 worth of pretty? My mind changed when I looked in the mirror later that day- "wow, my skin looks so good! that acne medication must really be kicking in" I was all glowy and pretty- my cheeks looked flawless BUT upon closer inspection (as in 2'' from the mirror) I realized my skin was the same- it was the Blush. Along with curling my eyelashes and applying a bit of undereye concealer, Benefit Dandelion is a rushing-out-the-door-no-time-for-makeup MUST HAVE for me.
I'm very pale (casper's-long-lost-sister pale.) and cool so just a swipe with the brush that's included on the apples of my cheeks up to my temples and I'm set, it perks my face up instantly but naturally. For an extra boost I often use it to highlight a different blush (such as Lancome Pink Pool or NARS Orgasm or Desire) I could never use it as an all-over face powder but with the right skintone, this is a gorgeous blush- I say give it a test drive, it won't work for everyone (but if it does, WOW!) continued >>

I love the color of this product, it really is the perfect pink. Ballerina-ish but a bit darker. But Dandelion, along with Georgia, seem to oxidize on my face, and take on an orange hue by the end of the day. My face isnt super oily, but I am suspecting that the oil is causing this problem. Also, the packaging makes the product barely useful, the square box is almost too tiny to fit a brush into! But i gave this to my sister, and she loves it, so I am glad I didnt have to throw it away!
The packaging is cute and inspired, but completely impractical; that's why I took off a lippie. The product itself is great on my fair, fair skin--but I would imagine it's a little too light for darker skin tones. Though it seems like a small box, it lasts seemingly FOREVER, and I use it pretty much every day.

I like this blush a lot, it gives a very pretty pinky blush color, it's light enough to build and doesn't go on dark or streaky, it shows up well on my MAC NC30-35 skin. I like everything about the packaging, it will last a very long time but I don't use the blush brush it comes with. It's nice they give you one, though in case you have to port this around. I think it's overpriced for what you get. I think you could find a comparable color with MAC that would be a lot cheaper and last very long, too. Still, the color is extremely pretty and I'm not willing to part with mine.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I also bought this based on many wondrous reviews. Personally, I find this product overhyped. It works as a blush for me, and that's it.
Lovely colour, adorable (but impractical) packaging, and nice fragrance. But not likely to re-purchase. Given the quantity, wonder if I will ever get around to finishing it!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I really don't understand the high reviews for this product. It is nothing more than an ordinary drugstore quality blush. The packaging is cute and very typical BeneFit. But, the product itself looks very powdery and chalky and just sits on top of the skin. I am very PPP so it definitely shows up on my skin. I can't imagine how anyone can use this as an "all-over highlighter". IMO you would look like you had just dusted pink powder all over your face rather than the "dull to radiant" look that the company claims you'll get. It just reminds me of a cheap Maybelline or CG blush except it costs $26.

This stuff is so overrated! I bought this and Georgia because I'm dying to see what all the hoopla is about. I was sort of afraid of this not showing up due to the mixed reviews, but I still had a bit of faith. And my negative thoughts were right! I'm an NC30, and this stuff doesn't even register on my skin! I've just put it on both as a highlighter and a blush to test out both uses. As for highlighting, this stuff gives me a powdery finish over my foundation, but it doesn't give me a pink glow in any way, shape, or form. I might as well just use my CG Simply Powder. As for blush...NADA!! It doesn't show up for that purpose either! I'ved even tried standing under a super-bright light, and I still don't see nothing. The reason this gets two stars is because it might work if you have super-pale skin. And by that, I mean next to albino! If this isn't your skin tone, please pass on this. Come to think about it, even if Dandelion does show up on you, you can probably take any other pink blush you own and get the same effect. Why this has received so many magazine awards is beyond me! The box and the scent are good, but that's about it. Gosh I hate overpriced, overhyped products! This is going back to Sephora!

Prestwich in the spotlight
The first NatWest CricketForce Fundraiser weekend saw clubs across the country successfully raise funds for grassroots cricket.
Prestwich Cricket Club was the 2010 showcase club and their fundraising activities raised significant monies for their 2011 NatWest CricketForce project - developing the club's artificial batting tracks.
Angus Fraser, Michael Lumb and Katherine Brunt paid a visit to Prestwich to support the club and met some of their young players.
There was great support from the local community in who turned out to see an exciting twenty20 tournament between four local teams and enjoy the Bank Holiday festivities.

Political strife deepens in Turkey
Two cases have the nation on edge. While the government goes after an ultranationalist gang, prosecutors want to ban the ruling party on charges of Islamist subversion.
Umit Bektas/Reuters
ISTANBUL, Turkey
A high-stakes political drama has gripped Turkey. And now the nation anxiously awaits the next development in an unfolding story that involves coup plots, arrests of journalists and generals, and charges of Islamist subversion.
The country's top prosecutor is on the verge of issuing a 2,500-page indictment against an ultranationalist group that promises to read like a thriller and shine a bright light on the deepening political and social divisions in Turkish society.
At issue are two cases that could redefine both politics and nationalism in ways unprecedented in modern Turkey.
In one, Turkey's top prosecutor is arguing that the AKP and its 70 top members – including the prime minister and president – should be banned for aiming to impose Islamist rule. Arguments began July 1 and are expected to wrap up within a few weeks.
Hours before the court began hearing the complaint against the AKP, the Turkish government made 23 predawn arrests in its own case against an ultranationalist gang called "Ergenekon," which it says sought to sow chaos to prompt a military coup against the elected Islamic-rooted government.
Two retired Turkish four-star generals were locked up Sunday, the latest to be imprisoned on suspicion that they were behind the shadowy organization. Opponents of the government – who often invoke the name of Turkey's stridently secular founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk – charge that the detention of "patriots" is politically motivated.
Indictments in the Ergenekon investigation have not yet been issued, even though it has been 13 months since 27 grenades and other explosives were found in an Istanbul apartment, ushering Ergenekon into the Turkish lexicon for the first time as a hard-line group with high-level contacts that aimed to topple the AKP government.

Koh Chang landslide blamed on resort expansion
- Published: 13 Oct 2010 at 08.40 | Viewed: 4,586 | Comments: 0
- Online news: Easy News
- Writer: Terry Fredrickson
Heavy rainfall was not the only cause of the land- and mud-slides that have ravaged parts of Koh Chang, authorities say.
Mud slides and heavy flooding on the tourist resort island of Koh Chang left this local town covered in mud and debris. JAKKRIT WAEWKRAIHONG
Click button to listen to Resort expansion blamed and rightclick to download
Man, not nature, the real culprit
The landslide and mudslide that ravaged Koh Chang on Monday have been blamed on heavy downpours, but authorities say the real culprit is man.
Adichart Surinkam, chief of the Department of Mineral Resource's environmental geology division, said the Koh Chang landslide was caused by a resort expansion. Workers removed soil from the area which reduced the capacity of the remaining soil to absorb rainwater.
Mr Adichart warned developers to approach construction projects in mudslide-prone areas on the western part of Koh Chang with great caution.
''This part of Koh Chang has been listed as a landslide-risk zone as it has a very steep slope,'' he said.
''Therefore, any construction projects must be conducted with extreme caution.''
Mr Adichart said the landslide risk was not confined to Ko Chang. He said 20 landslides had been reported nationwide this year.
''Most cases happened because of man-made activities."
Meanwhile, workers have been racing against time to repair about 20 high-voltage power poles since heavy rains hit the holiday island from Sunday night to early Monday.
Koh Chang officials said the island would suffer a blackout for a few more days.
Flood relief officials and rescue volunteers have worked around the clock to clear the mud. Only one lane of the coast road was passable yesterday.
Kampon Charoenkajornkul, a business operator on the island and head of the rescue team, said some sections of the road were badly damaged by the landslides.
The economy of Ko Chang, a tourist island, will be badly affected. Yesterday, tourists were seen leaving the island. Local police and hotels arranged minibuses to take them to a pier where they could arrange a shuttle boat to the mainland.

We stayed for 2 nights in the hotel, what I would call little family run reason our stay was a family celebration. The stay was very pleasant the room was clean, the food in the restaurant was very good for a reasonable price. What we liked very much were the free private parking, you often missed in large hotels in this city. Overall good hotel. read hotel review

Saving Energy, Saving Money
ENERGY SERVICE CORPS MAKING A DIFFERENCE—In 2011, WISPIRG Energy Service Corps members worked with more than 2,000 Wisconsin homeowners to reduce their energy consumption and lower their energy bills.
Saving Wisconsinites Energy and Money
In Wisconsin and across the country, we have enormous potential to save energy in homes and businesses. We are asking citizens to help our efforts to save consumers money and help to solve our country's energy problems by getting involved in WISPIRG Foundation's Energy Service Corps in a community near you.
Last fall, WISPIRG Foundation launched this new project because, due to insufficient community outreach capacity, many residents remain in the dark about opportunities to save money and help the environment through energy conservation.
WISPIRG Foundation Energy Service Corps mobilizes college students to fill this gap, identifying individuals that can benefit from available efficiency initiatives and providing education, assessment, weatherization services to those not reached by existing capacity.
Energy consumption rose 53% in Wisconsin from 1970 to 2007.
By taking a number of easy steps, Wisconsinites could realize similar levels of energy conservation:
• Through home weatherization — air and duct sealing, insulation and window replacement — Wisconsin could cut energy use for home heating by 20%;
• By requiring all new furnaces to meet federal Energy Star standards and to include high-efficiency fans, could save enough energy to power well over 30,000 homes;
• By replacing five conventional incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescent versions in every home could reduce electricity use for residential lighting by 25% — saving enough to power more than 50,000 homes;
• By implementing these solutions, and by adopting minimum appliance energy standards, the typical Wisconsin home could reduce its energy consumption by 20-40%.
