A$AP Rocky Talks $3 Million Record Deal, Mainstream Acceptance

In 2011, hip-hop mixtapes are released casually, free-of-charge, and at a break-neck pace. Most come and go at the speed of broadband. But when 23-year-old Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky releases his debut tape, LIVELOVEA$AP, on Monday, it'll mark a real hip-hop event. Rocky recently signed a deal with Sony/RCA subdivision Polo Grounds Music for a head-spinning $3 million sum, according to the rapper himself ($1.7 million for his solo output and $1.3 million to fund a group label called A$AP Worldwide). To put this into perspective: When Drake signed with Young Money after an intense bidding war in 2009, his reported advance was $2 million.
Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew Talks Band Hiatus, Future Projects, Apps
By Ryan Dombal and Larry Fitzmaurice on September 15, 2011 at 9:00 a.m. EDT
Broken Social Scene's fourth proper album, Forgiveness Rock Record, came out last year, and the indie rock supergroup has been touring for close to 18 months now. That's a lot of months. Makes sense, then, that the band's plotting a bit of a hiatus from the stage-- and from doing much of anything as a big group, really. On October 1, BSS will play their last North American show for the foreseeable future at San Francisco's The Fillmore (they have some South American gigs planned after that-- their full tour schedule is here).
The show sounds plenty epic, with a "mellow session" and a "loud session" planned. Although Feist and the members of Metric won't be there, Stars' Amy Millan and Evan Cranley will-- as will Modest Mouse's Isaac Brock, who will play some songs with BSS.
We recently spoke with the always gregarious Broken Social Scene figurehead Kevin Drew about the impending hiatus, what's next for the band's members, how he feels about music-making apps, and what advice he has for young bands.
of Montreal's Kevin Barnes Talks New Album, Cassette Box Set, His Career
By Larry Fitzmaurice on September 14, 2011 at 9:00 a.m. EDT
On October 25, Joyful Noise will release a cassette box set of psychedelic-pop mainstays of Montreal's entire catalog-- all ten albums, from 1997's Cherry Peel to last year's False Priest. The whole thing comes packaged in a wooden box (above) with screen-printed original artwork by bandleader Kevin Barnes' brother, David (who's done the cover artwork for all the band's albums in the past, too).
The retrospective package provides an opportunity to look back at of Montreal's career, from the band's lo-fi, 1960s psych-pop-worshipping beginnings to their zany, colorful, avant present. Rather than getting nostalgic, though, Kevin Barnes is looking forward-- he's currently putting the finishing touches on of Montreal's eleventh album, Paralytic Stalks, which is due early next year. Read on for our interview with Barnes, which touches on the new album, the return of cassettes in indie culture, and his feelings about his band's legacy as part of Athens' seminal Elephant 6 collective.

The-Dream Talks New Album, Relationships, Label Drama
By Ryan Dombal on September 2, 2011 at 5:04 p.m. EDT
Terius Nash: Wake Me When It's Over
Whatever you do, don't call R&B singer-songwriter-producer The-Dream's new free 11-song release 1977 (credited to his birth name, Terius Nash) a "mixtape." "I hate that word," he says. "It drives me crazy. Just call it what it is: a free album." (Download the whole thing here.) The distinction may seem slight, but it makes sense-- there's nothing lesser about 1977, which features the same pillow-y production and startlingly real lyricism that has filled The-Dream's three solo albums. If there's any difference here, it's Nash's increased vulnerability on songs like "Wake Me When It's Over". The track may or may not be an account of the dissolution of his marriage to singer Christina Milian last year after photos of Nash with another woman hit the web. "Life on the Internet, I look like a devil," he sings on the song. "But you wearing the red dress, holding a shovel."
Along with his own modestly successful solo career, Nash has written some of the biggest (and best) pop mega-hits of the last five years, from Rihanna's "Umbrella" to Beyoncé's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)". At this point, he's created a universe of songs vast enough that they're able to interact with-- and contradict-- each other. For instance, he co-wrote Beyoncé's female-empowerment anthem "Run the World (Girls)" but, on 1977's kiss-off "Used to Be", he snarls, "Know you wanna run the world/ But first try runnin' this."
We spoke with Nash about his multiple-personality songwriting "gift," the frank talk on his new album, and why women shouldn't "get in a relationship if you're going to leave a man if he cheats on you." The man does not mince words. Meanwhile, his next non-free record, The Love, IV (Diary of a Mad Man), is still on track for release this December.
Rising: Purity Ring

Purity Ring: "Belispeak"
Purity Ring: "Belispeak"
Megan James and Corin Roddick formed their "future pop" project Purity Ring only a year ago, but the duo have been musically active on their own for much longer. Originally from Edmonton, 23-year-old vocalist and trained pianist James started writing lyrics when she was 16. Twenty-year-old Roddick-- a former touring member of patchy electro outfit Gobble Gobble-- has drummed in various hometown bands since he was 14. But Purity Ring finds both members abandoning their live instruments in favor of stammering beats and pitched-down vocals derived from Roddick's love of Southern hip-hop.
The pair have only released two songs thus far-- the Best New Track "Ungirthed" and "Lofticries"-- but you can listen to a brand new one called "Belispeak" above. The song is to be featured on an upcoming split 7" with dream-pop buddies Braids that's due out October 11 via Fat Possum. On all three tracks, James' ghostly, Knife-like vocals are weaved into Roddick's skittering instrumentals, conveying an emotional and sonic disconnect-- fitting since their process involves Roddick sending his beats to James, who then adds her vocals. (The two live in different Canadian cities now, with Roddick stationed in Montreal and James in Halifax.)
We recently spoke to the duo about their upcoming full-length, Soulja Boy, and making pop music personal.

Elite Gymnastics: So Close to Paradise
After reading some Hipster Runoff posts about chillwave early last year, Minneapolis-based electronic-pop duo Elite Gymnastics decided it would be funny to slap a picture of bikini-clad surfer girls on the cover of their self-released Real Friends EP and call their website Psychedelic Surf Club. But anyone expecting to hear laid-back, beach-friendly tunes from this pair is in for a surprise. Instead, Elite Gymnastics make intensely varied, uptempo, and largely sample-based tracks that draw upon everything from jungle and house to Waka Flocka Flame and Korean pop music.
James Brooks, 27, and Josh Clancy, 24, started casually making music on a laptop together in 2008, and have put out a handful of self-released EPs on their Tumblr in the last year, along with a 34-minuted mix called ALL WE FUCKING CARE ABOUT IS KPOP WHITEHOUSE AND OUR CATS. Their forthcoming 12" Ruin is a gussied-up compilation of previously released EPs Ruin 1 and Ruin 2, and it's out early next month via Acéphale. We recently spoke with Brooks and Clancy about feminism, Lil B, K-pop, and "Mad Men" GIFs.
Florence and the Machine Announce New LP
By Ryan Dombal on August 23, 2011 at 11:55 a.m. EDT
This November, Florence and the Machine will release the follow-up to their hugely popular (and huge-sounding) debut LP, Lungs. The as-yet-untitled album is out November 7 in the UK via Island, and Universal Republic will release it sometime the same month in the U.S. Listen to the first track released from it-- the festival-ready, gospel-choir-infused "What the Water Gave Me"-- below.
While Lungs featured the input of several different producers and showed off various sonic styles, the new album has the band working solely with studio man Paul Epworth (Adele, Bloc Party), whose work was featured on many of Lungs' best tracks including "Cosmic Love" and "Blinding". Frontwoman Florence Welch promises a more cohesive affair that zeroes-in on the booming mystic-pop that highlighted her debut. Along with "What the Water Gave Me", the new record features live favorite "Strangeness and Charm" (listen to a high-quality live rip of that track here.)
We spoke with Welch last week as she was putting the final touches on the new record, "fiddling with the tiniest bits that only I would probably notice," she said. Read on for our brief interview:
DJ Shadow Talks New Album
By Larry Fitzmaurice on August 22, 2011 at 1:30 p.m. EDT

DJ Shadow: "I'm Excited" [ft. Afrikan Boy]
It may have been a long time since DJ Shadow dropped his last full-length, 2006's divisive, hyphy-heavy The Outsider, but he hasn't exactly been slouching. He's spent a lot of time touring, threw his support behind the now-defunct DJ Hero video game franchise, and most recently, played venues in the Shadowsphere, a giant revolving orb that features 3D projections amidst an array of visual effects. (The above picture was taken during his performance at this year's Pitchfork Music Festival).
On September 27, Shadow gets back to the album-making thing with The Less You Know, the Better, his fourth proper solo LP, which will be released on Verve. (Listen to album track "I'm Excited" above.) Like The Outsider and 2002's The Private Press, it's a bit of a left turn again, featuring collaborations with Talib Kweli, De La Soul's Posdnuos, Little Dragon, Afrikan Boy, and Tom Vek that span sounds dark, abstract, pop, and psychedelic. Our recent conversation covered topics ranging from the new album, the internet, notions of selling-out, and turntable.fm (why not).
(On a related note, Shadow will guest on East Village Radio from 2-4 p.m. Eastern today.)

I have been on DM since November 2011 and there were flirtations, hundreds of letters pouring in, me reading most of them, replying to them, finding so many beautiful women all over you all of a sudden, makes a man cocky you know!! :) well all this and than frustrations of running out of credits and letters as I was trying to catch so many flights from different terminals, had to be a goof up!!
Until July 19th 2012!! I had my first chat, with a beautiful beautiful woman 10 years younger to me, but as matured as a man wants his woman to be... And since than, I have developed only more and more liking for her. Her name... Yana! And if you`re reading this Yana, I`d like to say that despite of all these miles between us, you have made me more and more yours, with every passing day. Your patience and tolerance through my recent tough phase has only made me even more proud to have chosen you!! I hope soon there is an opportunity, that I get to see you, and when I do, I promise I have no intentions of letting you go! I only hope, you feel the same as I do...
I am not an angel with white wings and as every person I have both bad and good sides. It is not a secret that every lady believes in fairy-tales, in something very romantic and impossible, so my character consists of absolutely different features and that's why I am always mysterious.More About Me
I love sport and sports people, I respect those ones who care of their appearance and health.That's why I'm fond of running in the mornings and exercises, so my motto is healthy way of life. I love to spend time with my friends, listen to beautiful music and to dance, because from childhood I have been involved in the world of dancing and music art. Besides I was studying in a model agency, where I learned what a beautiful lady should be. I like to spend time outdoors, travelling and explore new things in my life.Ideal Relationship
I want to meet honest and serious man, who is active and intelligent. Country and age are not so important for me. I am sure he should be understanding, joyful, intelligent, sincere and, of course, active. I sincere believe that somewhere in this world lives my prince and he is waiting for me, as I am waiting for him. I am looking for my second half who will accept my love and my attention.Looking For An Age Group

Lawyers for two Hungarian citizens killed in a duck boat accident on a river in Philadelphia are calling for the city and Coast Guard to bar the vessels from returning to the water — which the company says it hopes to do this season.
Mechanical inspections and on-the-water testing are being done on the 15 amphibious Ride The Ducks vehicles licensed for Delaware River operations. A 250-foot barge being pushed by a tug hit the stalled duck boat July 7, plunging 35 passengers and two crew members into the river.
Attorneys for the families of the two people killed cite a federal analysis of a 1999 accident in Arkansas in saying that the vessels are unsafe due to their design and canvas canopies. Ride The Ducks says its canopies are designed to allow easy egress in the case of an accident.

North Fulton Market Report
Health-care facilities expanding in suburbs
- Randy Southerland, Contributing writer
(Page 2 of 3)
"Our goal is to be a very comprehensive acute care facility," McCoy said. "We're not an academic medical center. We have some of the Emory faculty physicians that are on staff with us. But we don't have as much of the teaching mission as the downtown [facilities], where the School of Medicine is. We do have training programs for midlevel practitioners and sometimes fellows will be rotated through in different specialties."
Emory Johns Creek is classified as a comprehensive general acute care facility, according to McCoy.
Northside Hospital, the largest facility in the area, is also gearing up to provide increased services to North Fulton. It recently launched a $30 million expansion and renovation project for some of its aging facilities. These include a 24-bed Extended Recovery Unit (ERU), increasing the capacity to 32 beds and converting patient rooms into private rooms.
The project will not only increase volume, but also provide more patient-friendly private rooms; and workflow efficiencies.
The hospital's kitchen and cafeteria will also be renovated and expanded for the first time in nearly a quarter century. It will reconfigure nearly 29,000 square feet and add more than 23,000 square feet of new construction, including a new floor above the hospital's emergency department.
Northside Hospital's building project, which is expected to begin this fall, will take two years to complete.
While the move by hospitals into the region has spurred the growth of medical offices, some observers see big changes coming to the local market.
"The driver for everything long term — and this is what the hospitals are gearing up for — is changes in the way health care is reimbursed," said Jason Hinkel, executive vice president with Brackett Flagship Properties LLC.

Maybe you'll start a lemonade stand or a casino or a clown college.

The meeting will be held in Lourdes Hospital Garden Room (on the ground floor next to the cafeteria) from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Dr. Barnes will be the keynote guest at the meeting, which will also welcome pediatrician Dr. John Roach, pediatrician Dr. Jeffery Mudd, Katie Englert of Compass Counseling, Dr. Becky Nastally of Bloom Behavior Therapy, and Michelle from the Commission for Children with Special Healthcare Needs.

Britten Sinfonia / Joanna MacGregor / Andy Sheppard, CBSO Centre, Birmingham
Monday 01 December 2003
Jazz rules were in force at this concert (or gig?), meaning that drinks could be taken into the venue. The last Britten Sinfonia tour featured the music of John Zorn and Frank Zappa, and their commitment to genre cross-fertilisation remains strong under the artistic direction of Joanna MacGregor. This is her second tour with the 15-piece Sinfonia, which is now in its 11th year.
The rebel pianist has assembled a programme that begins with Dumbarton Oaks, one of Stravinsky's more conventional works. Then it leaps radically into a selection of short pieces by the New York busker Moondog. The Art of Fugue provides the tour with its title, MacGregor having arranged JS Bach's final work to include the improvisatory presence of the jazz saxophonist Andy Sheppard and the Indian classical multi-instrumentalist Shrikanth Sriram. Alternatively, when playing tabla, fretless bass guitar or flute with Nitin Sawhney or the DJ Badmarsh, he's known simply as Shri.
MacGregor saw Moondog perform in 1995 and was captivated by his conglomeration of jazz, beat poetry, classical and Native American motifs. Not much of this one-man band's music is in published form, so her arranging was often geared toward transcription and imitation of his live street recordings, or studio experiments with invented percussion objects and overdubbed vocal layers.
MacGregor has arranged 12 of her favourites, stretching from the 1950s to Moondog's 1990s pieces. The original "All Is Loneliness" appears on tape, and there are regular intrusions of Manhattan traffic-noise. She plucks strings inside the piano and uses her synthesiser for its harpsichord setting. MacGregor is quite wooden when keen to look funky, over-compensating with a conducting jerkiness; that quality was echoed in the stiffness of the Sinfonia. It must be said that there is a clip-clop crankiness to the originals. Unfortunately, the transitions between the short pieces are ungainly, and the players seemed tense in their pursuit of beatnik syncopation.
Sheppard's solo parts need more amplification, but Shri's overblown bansuri flute has no such problem on "Invocation". The audience is confused over when to clap, but before the Moondog numbers reach the half-way point, the applause follows every tune, usually prompted by one of Sheppard's soloing climaxes.
The Art of Fugue is rarely performed, because of its abstract nature, and MacGregor admits to being intimidated by her own intentions. She has made a concise version by selecting and sacrificing. The instrumentation was never specified by Bach, so there's a temptation to openness.
The problems that can often dog jazz-classical fusions (indeed, any kind of fusion) are solved here, or even avoided. The alternating emphasis between moderately faithful interpretation and improvised waywardness happens in a seamless, naturalistic fashion. MacGregor has encouraged Sheppard to be himself, force-feeding him notation but allowing the gentle roughness of his feline-tongued tone. Cannily, she has simultaneously coerced Sinfonia members into frequent freeform gestures.
Despite any hyperactivity, most of MacGregor's arrangement casts a soothing, contemplative spell over the audience - not the usual by-product of experimentation. But Bach's rebirth is more successful than Moondog's.
The Art of Fugue tour continues at RNCM, Manchester (Thursday) and Colston Hall, Bristol (9 December)

The SDE: Spontaneous Diabetes Explosion
"Ok and with your steak tonight miss did you want a baked potato or french fries?"
"Um, neither, thank you. I'm good."
"Are you sure, they come with the entrée for free?"
"No thank you I don't want any. I have Type 1 diabetes and I just don't eat potatoes that often. It's not that I can't eat them ever it's just that they're really hard to manage for me so I just generally don't have them and it doesn't bother me because I don't even like potatoes that much and…" oh my god please stop talking Lexie this poor waiter doesn't need to know all of this!
Ever found yourself over-explaining diabetes to a complete stranger for no reason? I found myself doing just that last Wednesday while at dinner by myself in a little town in Eastern Washington state. I was staying the night there for work, and had wandered to a local chain restaurant, laptop in hand, ready to crank our some work and enjoy a nice, low-carb steak and salad dinner. But apparently, one little question about potatoes was all I needed to turn in to an over-enthusiastic, over-sharing little bundle of TMI. And although I consider myself very open and willing to talk about having diabetes, this was a little much, even for me.
Why do these spontaneous diabetes explosions happen sometimes? Why do we sometimes feel the need to justify and explain our disease to some people – even if they couldn't care less? And even for those who do care – do they really need ALL the details? Probably not.
I think the answer lies in the fact that for us folks with diabetes, our brain is so often crammed to limit with diabetes stuff, that it's all we can do to keep it from spilling over some moments. What that waiter doesn't know is that as I'm scanning the menu, I'm also clicking in the trend line on my CGM, thinking about my IOB, wondering if that 20 minutes on the elliptical is hitting me now, and curious if the their "world-famous steak glaze" is packed with sugar. It's almost as if him coming up to take my order shocks me out of my little diabetes number-crunching bubble that I'm living in. It's actually a wonder that more outbursts don't occur, given the amount of time diabetes is running laps through my mind every day.
Some of these explosions occur more subtly. It's those moments when a friend asks how you've been and you realize you spend 20 minutes talking about how absolutely bonkers your BGs have been for a few weeks. It's the moment when your sister asks you if your pump is waterproof and you wax eloquent on diabetes innovations for the better part of an hour. I think what this shows about us is that we do have a tremendous need to talk about this disease. Because when we keep it all inside in that little bubble, it's bound to burst at some point. Diabetes takes up way too much of our mental capacity to not overflow at some point.
If you're lucky, these explosions land on family members who patiently listen, nod their head, ask questions, and support you. And if you happen to do it to the poor waiter in small-town Washington who was just freaking wondering if you wanted potatoes, well, just accept his polite and awkward smile and move on – no major damage from that explosion except maybe you gave him a funny story to tell his coworkers at the end of the night. And that's ok!
Fancy (low) pants.
For the past few years, my stepmom has given me candy in my stocking for Christmas – and not because she's trying to tempt me. She gives me Jelly Beans in small packets and boxes that are great to stash for lows in the car or my gym bag. I'm always happy to have these on hand because hey, they taste way better than glucose tablets and they work fast. So when she gave me a bunch of assorted Jelly Bellys in my stocking this Christmas, I took the haul and tossed it in the center console of my car without much of a second glance.
And then I got low yesterday, and reached for a packet. I quickly realized that these were no ordinary Jelly Bellys…no my friends these were special Jelly Bellys. Fit for royalty in fact, as evidenced by the illustration on the packet. And when they say "sparkly" they do not disspoint. Nope. Those are ACTUALLY SPAKRLY JELLY BEANS. The enchanted kind, as it were. Who knew?
Most fabulous, fancy low snack ever? I think so!
Burn less, Basals up
How can I NOT start the new year with a post about exercise? I wish this was a post about how much exercise I've been doing and what cool new race I've signed up for as a resolution, but it's not. No friends, this is way less exciting. I have an injured Achilles tendon and I'm pretty much here to tell you that this is one big bummer of an injury (sorry, I was probably supposed to start the year off with something positive….later this week maybe? Can I just bitch for one post? Ok thanks….)
I ran a half marathon in August of this year, and it went great. Towards the end of my training though, I noticed pretty consistent and troubling pain in my left Achilles. It would be the worst first thing in the morning upon getting out of bed. I would run on it anyways, and the pain would subside about five minutes into the run, then return full force shortly after finishing. It got bad enough that I would hobble a bit in the evenings after a morning run and walking on it all day. Not good.
I did some research online: really not good. Achilles tendon tears can be career-ending for runners. They occur more frequently as we get older (great, thanks for the reminder), and they occur when ramping up mileage or speed too quickly (I trained pretty fast overall for the half). But I actually didn't need the internet at al – I need not look further than across the breakfast table to know I had to work on this injury. My husband actually blew out his Achilles several years ago. He said although it wasn't a crazy painful injury, the rehab was torture. He was forced to stay off it completely for weeks, completely limiting his mobility. The road to rehab was long and boring, and he has said more than once that it was one of the most challenging times in his life. Yeah….let's not push it with this one.
I took a firm, no-running whatsoever stance way back in November, with the intent to give it two weeks and see if it improves. Now, I'm nearly six weeks deep of no running and it hasn't improved much. Next week I'm going to see a doctor about it finally, but I'm concerned about it.
Without running, my activity level has changed quite a bit. I still have to get the dog out several mornings a week, so I've been walking her for an hour in the mornings. And if you thought getting up at 5:30 to run for 30 minutes in the Portland winter sounded unappealing, trying getting up twice as early so you can walk twice the distance and not be nearly as warmed up as a run would get you. Super. Lame.
I've been going to strength training classes as well, but there's nothing that torches calories or is as mobile as running. My work trips have forced me to get on the dreaded elliptical in hotel gyms, and truly, I would rather watch paint dry than do the elliptical, I find it so so boring.
The biggest challenge with all of this, aside from me missing running is that it has quickly cranked up my insulin needs. You can see it as clear as day between my endo appointment on September 1 and the one on December 5th. My total daily units in September were in the high 20s. December has shown a 10 unit increase to the high 30s. Ug. We all know more insulin means more weight gain, which can lead to insulin resistance. I've gone up a few pounds despite my best efforts to eat well, partially because I have to maintain this low A1c. And lemme tell ya, the holidays is not the season I want to be restricting anything.
I am hoping a trip to the doctor will at least give me a clear path of how to move forward. My fear is that I won't be able to return to my beloved running, but I'm trying to think positive. Until then, I'll be the crazy dog lady on walks at 4:45 in the morning….see ya out there.
Happy New Year!
I'm taking a much needed break as soon as the clock strikes midnight on the 31st. Right up until then, I'm trying to close out the year at work. So I will leave 2014 with a simple thank you to my readers and the Diabetes Online Community. You are the reason that I know I am never alone with diabetes. Thank you for being my support and my sounding board for another amazing year.
To a healthy, happy 2015, full of low A1cs, and high amounts of joy.
Merry Christmas!
Wishing you and yours a wonderful, magical, healthy Christmas full of joy and flat-lined CGMs. From our Little Elf (who has still not forgiven us for this photo) to you and yours!
Diabetic Diet secret – FOUND!
This was spotted at the zoo the other day by my sister. I'm so glad they've found an easy way to control the monkey's diabetes! I'm going to try this whole "don't feed me anything" routine. Sounds like it will work wonders for my BG control….
Someone. Please. Carb. Count. For. Me.
BRAIN CANNOT COMPUTE! Also I'm really hoping I packed extra Humalog right about now….it certainly is the Holidays!
32. And 22.
Today I turn 32 years old. And next week, my diabetes will clock 22 years. I'm now in a category of "more than two decades with diabetes." And also "in my early 30s." I can't have a birthday or a Christmas without thinking about my diagnosis and my duration with this disease, because I was diagnosed on Christmas Eve in 1992. My birthday, Christmas, and diabetes are all intertwined. Because they all fall in December, it always feels very official when another year passes, because it's the end of the year and a time for reflection.
This year, I landed a job at a company I've had a career crush on for years. It has easily been the hardest job that I've ever had. The hours are insane, the workload can be crushing at times, and the pressure is high. But every single day, I think about how lucky I am to be here in this exact moment in my life. I get to help other people with diabetes live better every single day, and that is the part of my job that sings to my soul. How blessed I am to have found a career where that's possible in the day to day work I do? I find it especially poignant at this time, almost one year into my tenure with the company. Because this time last year, I was still without a job, worrying about my future, and wondering if I'd made a huge mistake moving to Portland and away from my job network in San Diego. My, what a difference a year makes.
This year was a pivotal one for my diabetes management too. After struggling for a full year to bring down the high A1c that our trip to Asia created, I settled into my comfort zone of the low sixes, only to be told that wasn't good enough if I wanted the best possible chances for a healthy pregnancy down the road. I had been in the fives once before, and that had to have a been a bit of a fluke – an average of way to many lows. But this time, I took on the challenge and cranked up d-management. I bolused corrections for 145s and restrained myself to one glucose tablet for 72s. I cut carbs and increased my exercise. This kind of dedication is not easy and I don't know that I'd recommend it, outside of this particular situation of wanting to have a child in the near future (still not pregnant folks, by the way….I intend to celebrate my birthday tonight-with wine!)
But when I hit that 5.9 A1c – and not because of a fluke but because of my very own hard work and dedication – that felt as good as it gets. And even though 22 years with diabetes has cracked the door open for the dreaded complications, with mild retinopathy now sitting on my health chart, I feel empowered to lean into that door harder than ever to shut down that specter of further complications as long as I can. When we accomplish something we were scared of or thought we couldn't do with diabetes, that ramps up our Diabetes Confidence and helps us prepare for the next battle. Getting to 5.9 has shown me that what I thought was impossible is actually within my reach.
Today, while I reflect on the amazing, crazy, challenging, sometimes exhausting and sometimes utterly exhilarating year I've had, my accomplishments and challenges with diabetes will be there. But they will simply be one part of a wonderful year – not the centerpiece. There are too many other things to be grateful for.
That Christmas Magic.
Bolus – worthy is the term we usually reserve for sweets and treats that are a pain to dose for, but oh-so-worth it once in a while. And on Sunday, I had one of my best buds over for our now-annual cookie baking fiasco. We're both decent cooks (she's actually phenomenal – her enchiladas could make a grown man cry. I've literally seen it happen) but somehow, when we get to baking, things go all kinds of wrong. Gingerbread men fall apart, recipes don't make sense, and more often than not, the best of the baked bunch ends up being the scraps of the experiments we tried but miserably failed. I'm not above frosting a Gingerbread man's leg and calling it dessert. That happened. Cookies, I'm sure, fall onto many people's bolus-worthy lists. But it's more than that.
Bolus-worthy is that moment when a new Christmas tradition is born. Bolus-worthy is when you're laughing so hard with your friend that neither of you can breathe or even remember what was so funny in the first place. Bolus-worthy is making a somewhat-decent cookie tree in honor of your late Great Aunt, who used to make a beautiful one each year. Bolus-worthy is being ok with the 194mg/dL you end up with after ingesting half a pound of cookie dough while making said tree, and actually feeling like, "hey, I managed to keep it under 200mg/dL even with all these cookies – WINNING!" Bolus-worthy is not missing a single experience in life.
Bolus-worthy is not letting diabetes stop the magic of Christmas. And we're so lucky that we CAN decide if things are bolus-worthy to us or not in this day and age. It wasn't that long ago that all of these foods were viewed as off-limits according to traditional "Diabetic Diets." My how times have changed – I can watch the rise and fall of my BG on my CGM, and bolus with the touch of a few buttons to iron out the damage. Although not every food is easy for me to eat and manage, I have the confidence that I can handle it if needed.
And there's nothing more bolus-worthy than time with the folks you love.
Oh, that's what that's called.
I explained to my endo on Friday that I feel like I'm doing everything I can to keep my BGs nice and smooth and maintain this crazy low A1c (actually that remains to be seen – getting it drawn on Wednesday!), but I told her that exasperatingly, I was still getting these odd spikes in the middle of the night, despite bolusing well for dinner and going to bed with a good BG and tweaking my basals. It wasn't happening every night, but enough to drive me a little (ok…a lot) nuts. It just didn't make sense, there wasn't much of a pattern to it, but when it happened it ruined the night of sleep and usually the next day.
She asked me if I had ever heard the term gas-lighting. I had not.
She explained to me the term comes from a story from Ye Olden Days when we used gas lamps to light our homes. A man would turn down the lamps ever so slightly at night and when his wife would ask if the lights were dimmer he'd say "Why no, not at all!" leading her to believe that she was going crazy when in fact, she was being messed with.
This, she explained, is gas-lighting, and it's something diabetes does incredibly well. It messes with you just enough so that you have to wonder if it's the diabetes…or maybe it's just all in your head. It's those times when you feel like there can be no possible rational explanation for whatever nonsense diabetes has put on your plate that day….and it turns out that you're right and there is no explanation. It's just diabetes utterly, royally, unapologetically effing with you. I love this new term because it so perfectly describes what happens with diabetes and why the mental side of managing this disease is the crazy-making part, not the injections/bleeding/finger pokes. That stuff would be downright easy if only it worked every time, for every situation. But it doesn't and the subtleties of this disease are where you can make yourself nuts. I've been getting gas-lit by diabetes for over two decades now, and it doesn't make it any less obnoxious. I'm so glad I have a new term for the nuttiness though!
And apparently, it's a totally acceptable medical term. Because it made it right into my chart notes, all official like. Love it.

Veteran shooting guard Jason Terry was ready to stick with the Mavericks, his team of the last eight years. But one very persuading call from Celtics coach Doc Rivers -- and a lackluster response from Dallas -- apparently changed the situation. "Boston was the first to call me, and Doc Rivers got on the phone and said, 'We need you. You're the No. 1 priority," Terry told RF Sports Report, according to ESPN. "Had I got that same phone call from Dallas, I'd still be a Dallas Maverick." What makes the Celtics' pursuit of Terry so interesting is that other...

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Youth charged in children's hospital arson
A 16-year-old male was charged with arson Saturday.
Police say the youth was responsible for starting a fire at the Children's Hospital on March 5, 2013, which forced almost 100 children, including patients in the neonatal and pediatric intensive care units to evacuate the building. The youth has been released with a promise to appear in court.
Police say an incendiary device was used to set the $1-million fire at the construction site next to Children's Hospital. The seven-storey building is scheduled to open next spring and will include a new pediatric MRI, new operating room angiography suite and several other units.
"Any case of arson is disappointing," the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority said shortly after the blaze.

Demi Lovato to perform at 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards
X Factor judge Lovato up against One Direction, PSY and Taylor Swift for Your Fave International Artist/Group of the Year
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Wait, are those teen screams I hear off in the distance? The MuchMusic Video Awards must be just around the corner.
The MMVAs flaunted a little early star power on Thursday evening by announcing child actress turned chart-topping pop starlet Demi Lovato as the first performer of the 2013 ceremonies, going down as usual at MuchMusic's Queen West headquarters on Sunday, June 16.
The "Heart Attack" singer currently serves as one of the judges on the U.S X Factor series.
She's also up against One Direction, PSY and Taylor Swift — along with "wild card" choices P!nk, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis — in the running for Your Fave International Artist/Group of the Year, one of three fan-voted awards to be handed out on the show.
The two other "Your Fave" categories were also revealed Thursday.
Nominated for Your Fave Video of the Year are Classified's "Inner Ninja," Drake's "Starting from the Bottom," Hedley's "Kiss You Inside Out" and Marianas Trench's "Stutter." Possible wild card entries to be voted onto the final ballad are Anjulie's "You and I," Billy Talent's "Surprise Surprise," Deadmau5's "The Veldt," the Sheepdogs' "Feeling Good" and the Weeknd's "Wicked Games."
Up for Your Fave Artist/Group of the Year are Carly Rae Jepsen, Deadmau5, Drake and Justin Bieber. On the wild card are Hedley, Marianas Trench, Tegan and Sara, the Weeknd and Walk Off the Earth.
Votes can be cast at mmva.muchmusic.com. Wild card voting closes May 20, after which the final list of MMVA nominees will be made public at some point on the show New.Music.Live.

What is the difference between the G-DRIVE and G-RAID?
The G-DRIVE is a single drive product, while the G-RAID contains two drives. The benefit of a single drive unit is smaller size and reduced heat, so no fan is required. The G-RAID uses two drives hardwired as Raid 0 so the computer will see the unit as a single larger drive. The paired drives can increase performance up to 50% over a single drive unit. This increase varies based on connection type and the system's capabilities.

M'sian firms urged to seize opportunities under Mafta
Publication Date : 27-12-2012
Malaysian companies should seize the business opportunities under the Malaysia-Australia Free Trade Agreement (Mafta) and beef up their promotional and marketing efforts to secure a strong foothold in Australia.
The International Trade and Industry Ministry (Miti), in a statement, said Mafta would benefit exporters as Australia eliminated 100 per cent of its import duties which will come into effect from Jan 1, 2013.
This is the first free trade agreement (FTA) under which Malaysia will be obtaining immediate tariff elimination on all products from an FTA partner.
As Mafta aims to provide a more liberal and predictable operating environment for both countries, the market access for trade in services in several sub-sectors will also be enhanced.
"Malaysian companies will have the right to participate in hospital services and hospital support services in Australia (and at the same time) Australia will also facilitate Malaysian participation in the provision of traditional and complementary medicine services such as Malay massage, homeopathy, ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine," it stated.
Furthermore, the agreement will allow Malaysians to wholly-own operations in professional sectors, including legal, accounting, taxation, architectural, engineering, urban planning, landscape architectural, dental, veterinary and management consulting services.
In turn, Malaysia is offering commitment for more Australian participation in education, telecommunications and financial services locally.
Aside from those sectors, Mafta will also promote better economic co-operation in the form of technical programmes mainly in the automotive, tourism, agriculture, e-commerce and clean coal technology industries.
In 2011, trade between Malaysia and Australia grew by 11.1 per cent to 38.49 billion ringgit (US$12.54 billion) from 34.2 billion ringgit in 2010, with exports to Australia hitting 25.68 billion ringgit and imports amounting to 12.81 billion ringgit.

The Mafta, signed on May 22, is Malaysia's sixth FTA. It will come into effect on January 1 next year.
