Fencing cattle with electric mesh?
I will be getting dexter cattle within two weeks and was planning on using the 48" tall movable electric mesh. Lush pastures here to move around as required to keep them well fed.
I find it strong enough to keep out bears, hoping it will keep cattle in too! I've heard a bit of negativity about it!
As it isn't the sturdiest fencing, and as these cows/heifers have never been trained to electric- I would appreciate any tips you can offer. They'll have been in a trailer from their previous far for about 4-5 hours before arriving here, released direct into their new electric paddock.
I've never had cattle before and losing them could be a rollercoaster here!
Thanks for any suggestions.
I don't see why not. As long as it is set up properly, (charger grounded good and fence insulated), especially if the ground is moist. Sheepherders use it here always to contain the flock at night. Neighbor has goats in that fence with no problems. Another neighbor has limousines in a one strand wire.
Good Luck,
We love electric fencing, but with our horses, we don't trust it 100%. We have the traditional barbed wire fence on the perimeter of our property. Electric will frequently short out either because of a break or a charger gone bad or a dead battery or even grass that has made contact with the fence shorting it out. Therefore we don't trust it alone to keep the horses out of the road or from wandering completely off our property. We only use the electric wire, not mesh. We find its value in keeping the horses from leaning on the barbed wire or areas of slick wire by running a single strand above the top strand of barbed and slick wire. We then use the easy step-in posts and just one single strand of wire to keep the horses out of areas WITHIN OuR PERIMETER that we don't want them into. Occasionally, for the reasons mentioned, the fence fails and we find they have gotten into the unwanted areas. But since it's within the perimeter of the more permanent fencing, it's not as tragic as losing an animal or having one hit.
I would hesitate to rely on the electric fence for the perimeter fencing on your property. I would use it only to keep your cattle from leaning on that fence as we do, or confining them to areas within that perimeter fencing. And for that, you really don't need to go to the expense of the mesh fencing you described if your only goal is to keep them within a certain area. Either t-posts or even the step-ins with two or three strands of wire are sufficient, probably two well-placed. The lower the wire is to the ground, the more likely you are to short your fence on weed growth.
I would add that the animals need to learn to respect electric fencing. The first two times we used the fencing on the horses was on a campout and the first two nights the horses went through it. Luckily ours are big pets and stayed around the trailer. After those two lessons of learning the wire had a bite, they never went through a live wire on a campout again. Somehow, though, they seem to know when that fence has developed a short on the farm though.
Hope this helps.
personally, growing up on a farm, we used electric fencing ALL the time. dividing pastures to rotate grazing, even using it on yearlings near a major roadway. and of all animals, it worked on sheep really well. you could take down the fence and couldnt drive them thru where it was previously. never any problems. used the step in posts, good insulators and 1 wire. i'd be leary of mesh, especially near tall plant growth. one terrific way to check if you have a break in the current is to drive along side the fence with the AM radio on, not on a station and listen for the surge. when you come to a place with heavy static, you found your short/weed on the fence.

False claims of abuse would be crime under Illinois bill
By STEVE BINDER
Illinois Correspondent
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — A central Illinois legislator has filed legislation that would criminalize the reporting of inhumane treatment of animals on farms that is later determined to be false or unfounded.
Similar legislation in Illinois last year was tabled, and the new bill filed by state Sen. Chapin Rose, a Republican from Champaign whose district covers 10 counties, would make it a crime to knowingly make false charges of cruelty or neglect against farmers.
The short act would amend the state's existing Humane Care for Animals Act. If the state's agriculture department "determines that a complaint made under this act against a person or entity is false or unfounded and made with the intent to harass the person or entity, the department may waive any confidentiality of the complainant and refer the matter to the state's attorney for consideration of criminal charges against the complainant," it states.
In a brief statement, Rose said he believes farmers have the right to feel protected against anyone or groups that falsely attempt to attack their way of life.
Environmentalists and animal rights groups such as the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) already have called Rose's one of the latest so-called "ag-gag" bills – measures they believe attempt to silence people who work to expose abuse on what they call large-scale "factory farms."
In addition to Illinois, six other states have similar bills pending before state legislatures this year, including Indiana, New Hampshire, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Nebraska.
Last month the Wyoming House passed a similar bill that also makes it a crime to videotape on private property without the owner's consent, although the law states a person is immune from civil prosecution if alleged abuses are reported within 48 hours. The bill now is before the Senate.
Iowa approved an animal protection bill last year, called the Agricultural Production Facility Fraud act, which makes it a crime to "fraudulently gain access to a farm with the intent to cause harm." It joined five other states with ag protection laws, including Missouri, Utah, North Dakota, Montana and Kansas, according to HSUS.
The organization holds up the Wyoming legislation as a timely example of how similar laws will stifle the public's ability to keep large farm operations from abusing animals and or putting the environment at risk.
The bill was introduced a few weeks after nine factory workers at Wyoming Premium Farms, which supplies Tyson Foods, were charged with animal cruelty after HSUS members videotaped them kicking piglets, swinging them by their hind legs and beating mother pigs. The videographers did not have permission to film.
In Illinois, organic farmer Karen Hudson – an activist with Illinois Citizens for Clean Air and Water – said the group will fight Chapin's proposal.
"We will stand strong with many other organizations and thousands of Illinois residents in opposition to this bill," she said, alleging the livestock industry wants to "gag" the public to hide unreported cases of abuse, pollution and illegal runoff from farms.

Matching new birch to old maple
Hi All,
We are looking to have hardwoods installed in our kitchen, which flows with the dining room (we opened up a wall). The DR (and the rest of the house) has maple hardwoods, installed when the house was built in 1952. We had a floor guy come out and he suggested using birch, rather than maple, in the kitchen -- he said "new" maple is much whiter than our 1950s version, which is very yellow. He thinks birch would match the old maple better. Has anyone had any experience with new birch vs. old maple? Or even experience with trying to match new hardwoods to old?
Side question: Any thoughts on how well birch would do as a kitchen floor? I know (or think) it's softer than maple, but don't know if it's so soft that it would be a problem. The kitchen sees a lot of traffic (we enter there from the garage) and we have two small children.
You ned a new flooring professional. Yes, old maple will be much yellower than new, as that's how wood naturally ages. Birch is no substitute. I don't like using it on cabinetry, much less as flooring. It's simply too soft unless you really like patina.
There really isn't going to be a good match for what you have unless you have the entire home's floors sanded and refinished after new maple is installed. That should be your choice. Or put in something completely different like slate or Marmoleum for the kitchen area.

There appears to be much ado over the Texas Democratic Party Chairmanship. As reported here first the current chairman, Charles Soechting, is resigning and the State Democratic Executive Committee, the party's 64 member governing body will pick a replacement on April 22nd. A state convention will be held by law about three weeks later where a permanent replacement will be chosen by party delegates.
There are currently two announced candidates. One is Boyd Richie, a Young County (near Wichita Falls) lawyer, former DA, and husband of the Democratic National Committeewoman from Texas. The other is former Austin State representative Glen Maxey. However, Maxey today issued an email saying that he would not be a candidate for the interim job but would be at the convention. That same email accused unnamed "insiders" brought about the resignation of Soechting in order to give their chosen candidate, presumably Richie, the advantage of incumbency.
Maxey was the first openly gay member of the legislature and recently led the effort to defeat an amendment to the Texas Constitution intended to ban gay marriage. Many party regulars fear that with Maxey as chairman Democrats would be unable to attract the broad middle class of Texas and would be hampered in efforts to hold the state's growing Hispanic vote. Others believe that Maxey is a real Democrat who would embrace a liberal agenda on both social and economic issues that would rally the state's core vote.
However, it isn't clear that Richie will be a candidate, or the only candidate to oppose Maxey. Rumors have constantly circulated that Richie will either withdraw from the race or withdraw from the convention race and only hold the position for a few weeks. So are no additional candidates have announced.
HD 63 runoff candidate Tan Parker announced today that he has received the endorsement of Rep. Mary Denny (R-Aubrey). Denny is retiring and currently represents the district in Austin. "Now that we are down to the runoff, there's only one solid conservative with a record of Republican leadership, and that's Tan Parker. Today, I'm proud to offer my wholehearted endorsement of Tan and encourage my supporters to vote for him on April 11. He ran a strong, grass-roots campaign based on reducing property taxes, reforming public education, and standing firm for faith and family. I know we can trust Tan to stay true to his conservative convictions and represent all areas of the district in Austin," Denny said in making the endorsement. Parker is running against former Lewisville school board member Anne Lakusta in the Republican runoff. The district is solidly Republican.
The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District, which is being sued over its mandatory "moment of silence" by two district area parents, has received an offer of legal assistance from a Plano legal foundation.
Hiram Sasser, director of litigation for the Liberty Legal Institute, told DallasBlog today that he has been in contact with attorneys for the suburban school district and offered his resources in the suit.
David and Shannon Croft of Carrollton filed suit in federal district court charging that Texas' mandated moment of silence in public schools, established in 2003, is unconstitutional. The Crofts say in the complaint that one of their children was told by an elementary school teacher to keep quiet because the minute is a "time for prayer."
"These laws are part of the compromise everyone has worked out," Sasser said. "Everyone agreed that we're not going to have prayer but a moment of silence and let kids do as they wish. For someone to attack a moment of silence is really outrageous. These kids have a right to pray at school and we want the kids to have that option."
Several new polls today that largely give Democrats reason for optimism in this year's elections.
First, CBS News Poll shows that Americans are largely losing confidence in President Bush on fighting a war on terrorism. The poll shows that 45% have confidence in Bush but 47% have confidence in Congressional Democrats. The same poll shows that only 17% of Americans believe it is OK for a foreign ally of the US to manage ports while 42% say "never." While this issue may fade before election the margins are so lopsided the issue has clearly helped move popular opinion against the President and his party on the security issue that has provided their past victory margins.
The CBS Poll also found that when respondents were asked to name what the considered to be the nation's number one problem 20% volunteered "Iraq." Amazingly, in the middle of a booming economy with a job creation engine in high gear 13% named either "jobs" or the "Economy." Heath care rated a 4% response. The only good news for the administration was that "energy or fuel costs" drew only a 4% response indicating energy costs may not be a particularly resonant issue.
Today's CNN poll offered more bad news for Republicans. First, 51% of Americans now believe President Bush intentionally "mislead" the people about Iraq while 46% don't think so. When asked who they believe had a "plan to end the Iraq war" neither of the parties have the confidence of the people. By a margin of 32% to 67% respondents said the GOP had no plan but had even less confidence in Democrats where the margin was 25% to 68%
According to Senator Florence Shapiro, Dallas may not have to give up wealth to revenue poor districts once the Legislature fixes the Texas school finance system by June 1st. The Dallas Morning News reported that Shapiro and other legislators are looking to reduce Robin Hood districts across the state and that Dallas ISD will probably be removed from its status as a property rich district.
It is uncertain at this point, however, whether the Legislature will find a temporary fix to the school finance system, or a more permanent one.
If Dallas ISD is not removed from the list of property rich districts, it would have to give up $ 21.9 million to property poor districts. Dallas ISD would also lose about 21 million in state aid.
District officials are preparing for the possibility that they will lose funding this year and have to give up excess wealth under Robin Hood. Certain initiatives to increase spending on employee health insurance, pre-kindergarten programs, and teacher stipends are at risk.

A story in the March 15th edition of the Ft. Worth Star Telegram entitled "UNT professor, students believe contact with dead can aid healing" describes how a tenured professor at the University of North Texas Jan Holden holds seances and tries to conjure up the dead with her "graduate students" at UNT. Ms. Holden is the coordinator of the counseling program at the University of North Texas College of Education. Thus, she teaches future educators who counsel students in our public school system. According to the article, the UNT professor and her graduate students "believe that ghosts don't haunt, they heal".
When asked by the reporter whether this was an appropriate area of research by a Texas university, Professor Holden responded as follows: "There is just no basis to say this is not a legitimate area of research. Thousands of people have had after-death communications, and probably what's most hurtful is a culture that doesn't prepare people for these experiences. I have no reason not to believe it's real." Holden has been a professor at UNT since 1988.
UNT Professor Jan Holden facilitates these "induced after death communications" or IADCs. Ms. Holden is quoted as saying that the UNT group uses a technique called "eye movement desensitization and reprocessing" as a "steppingstone into an IADC".
The Telegram story says Ms. Holden and her graduate students traveled to Chicago last year to study under Allan Botkin, a "pioneer" and "contact-the dead guru".
The UNT professor will hold her next "induced after-death communication workshop" in April at the Denton Unitarian Universalist Fellowship church.
It is incredible that someone with these bizarre beliefs is a tenured professor at one of our leading state universities and is teaching young people (who will be future counselors in our public schools) such nonsense. All of this is being done at taxpayer expense at a time of the declining quality of education in our public school system. Surely, the administrators at the University of North Texas should have better sense than to have education professors at their University promote such dubious propositions to the students they teach – paid for by the taxpayers of Texas.

The Dallas ISD Board of Trustees elections are coming up. Usually, school board elections draw a relatively low voter turnout, however, that doesn't mean that they don't have an impact on the community.
According to the Dallas Morning News, Superintendent Michael Hinojosa wants to cut some jobs and programs for financial reasons. Whether or not he can do that will depend on who gets elected on May 13th.

Dallas Citizen's Council President Tom DunningEven Dallas' most esteemed business leaders want more money put into education. Dallas Citizens Council President Tom Dunning, in a newsletter message to members, says no local issue is more important than finding a solution to public school finance. The Citizens Council has consistently supported significant property tax relief and equitable distribution of the financial burden for education across all businesses as well as property owners. Furthermore, the DCC has asked the legislators to provide increased funding to address critical unmet needs in public education.
The Citizens Council's other top priorities for the year include weighing in on the city bond package and continuing to work on the Trinity River Project. Dunning calls for investment in more parks and open spacing for developing commnunities, particularly downtown residential development. "Not only must we be involved in helping to estalish the size and scope of the bond package, but we also must be ready to publicly support it," he writes.
As for the Trinity River Project, the DCC wants more federal funds, and will continue to work with Washington representatives to get those funds, as well as funding for the project in the city bond program. Since 1931, the Citizens Council has been a vehicle for business leaders to promote a favorable busineess climate and quality of life for Dallas citizens.
Frisco Fire Department is sending a crew to the panhandle to help fight the wildfires blazing in North Central Texas. Irving, Prosper and other suburban departments are sending men and equipment.
But bigger departments in North Texas haven't been requested to help and are keeping ready because of similar conditions in this area, Lt. Kent Wortley of the Fort Worth Fire Department said. Likewise, Dallas Fire-Rescuse has not been asked, according to DFD Lt. Joel Lavender, spokesman for the department.
Todd Bensman and Ginger Allen over at CBS 11 TV have a great, lurid little story this morning about a Park Cities attorney and a convicted Houston con man who they say have been bilking the families of state inmates of thousands of dollars offering them false hope and promises of securing early release or parole.

Hi All,
I've been spending a lot of time prepping a mahogany porch for re-finishing. Part of what I need to take care of is the eight thousand nail stains. Every single nail has a black stain in the wood around it. I have used Restore A Deck. I have also tried oxalic acid according to the directions, twice, and am not much further along than where I started. The directions state to mix the canister (12 oz) per one gallon of hot water. Apply every ten minutes, then triple rinse. While everything is still wet, I feel like the stains are gone. But when things dry out again, there are the black stains. A few of them now have changed from a black stain to more of a yellow stain. ??
So my question is, do I just keep applying again and again? Do I mix a stronger solution? I really don't know, but it sort of feels like with all the rinsing you have to do after applying the acid, you sort of recreate the stains with all the water that is applied. Is that possible?
Any suggestions on where to go from here are greatly appreciated. Also, the only acid I can find is the 12 oz containers at $8.00 a pop. What sort of places would carry this in larger containers? I've gone through quite a few of the 12oz ones and am hoping I don't have to spend that kind of cash again.
I have not tried sanding because many of the nails are level with the surface of the wood. I felt like I would only make my problem worse. I'm thinking that if oxalic isn't working, neither will sanding, but that may be an inappropriate assumption.
As some background, this porch is about 12 years old, and I can almost guarantee that the previous owners did nothing as far as upkeep is concerned from the day they put it in. Before I did the oxalic wash, I stained an inconspicuous board with Penofin, my intended product of choice(I use this on my Ipe deck and really like it.) It was then that the stains really became an issue. I thought that they might blend in with the Penofin. I've found that Penofin on mahogany is much lighter in color than Penofin on Ipe. So, the stains really stand out.
Also, one last question......If I indeed can get these stains out somehow, will they eventually come back? Or will everything be fine as long as there is an appropriate level of upkeep from this point forward?
I'm starting to lose hope that I can make this porch look nice. Any suggestions are very much welcome!
Strange the porch has non galv fasteners.
I buy oxalic by the 50 lb bag its about $50 from a chem store. Keep in mind oxalic is an acid if the fasteners are really non glav further treatment will eat
them up.
I am not understanding the yellow stain part. Anyway oxalic always works that is it does what it does now why the result you are going for is not happening is strange as well. Nails hmmmmmm what kind of nails?? that is do they have a big head showing or are they finish nails with a small head. J.
Thanks for your input John. Much appreciated. The porch installation is much like the rest of the house. You sort of scratch your head and say "Why did they do it like this????" Sigh. I've spent three years remodeling this house, and finally have time to tackle the porch.
Anyhow, the nails appear to be finish nails from a nail gun. I'm assuming that from the stains, they are non galvanized. It had never occured to me that further acid treatment would eat them up. That's why I'm here!
So, would you suggest calling it a day and figure this is as good as it's gonna get? I'm not willing to rip it up and re-do. This porch runs the entire length of the house, so re-do is out of the question. $$
Thanks so much,
Weedyacres........people would definitely call me a perfectionist! But with this 12 year old porch, I'm not willing to pull the nails and replace with screws. Number one, I'm sure there would be too much damage from pulling, and two, I don't want to look at screw heads! And number three, the stains stretch out beyond what would be the screw head. I finished building an ipe deck last summer where I screwed and plugged.........and I LOVE it! It was so worth all those hours of sweat equity. But not willing to do that again unless I'm starting new.
I'll try to get some pictures posted. I've never posted pics, so it might take a few to figure it out!
Maybe there is a stain dark enough to blend the stains? I was hoping to stick with Penofin, but I'm open to any suggestions.
Yo Kim its a good thing they are finish nails.The good news is you can counter sink them. The bad news is you have to countersink them.
Seeing as how you can see the nails its a good bet they are not acid damaged that much and I agree puling nail gun finish nails is not possible. Its time to break out the ol nail punch and the knee pads.
Dont Yell at Me!! I had a hard day!!!
With all the screwing/pluging going on this will be nothing new. Pick out a punch bigger than the nail,how much bigger depends on you. If you want to just countersink the nails and sand the rust off to an area that looks good to you,flood the finish on to cover the nails that would be one way to go so just pick out a punch slightley bigger.
However being the person you are you might want to use a little larger punch,fill the hole with tightbond 111 and sawdust,sand with an 80 grit orbital,do it again and mabey again to get it perfect,and you know who you are,then sand the whole floor. Too much work??? dont even talk to me I just finished hand sanding 300 sq ft of red oak T&G in the living room then hand rubbed watco dainsh oil with two buffing passes.
Anyway they both would work. The idea is to get the nail heads protected from the water.
JonMon very intersted in your choice.
Side Note penofin is junk.
Oh my, JonMon! My knees and back ache just reading your post!! Lol. I will admit though, your suggestion is very tempting. My issue is that I've put in a lot of work so far, and I'd hate to just slap on a finish now and kick myself for not taking the extra step to get the stains completely out. You know? I'd forever look at the stains and be pissed off!
I think what I'll do is try your suggestion on a few inconspicuous boards and see how it goes. Is it possible that the stains could be too deep that even the countersink/sanding plan won't work?
Lastly, I know you're anti-Penofin. I'm willing to give TWP a try if maybe you've got some experience using it on mahogany. Do you have suggestions on what would be nice on this porch? I like the darker, richer tones.
Thanks everyone. I'll try to post pictures this weekend.
PS.....JonMon - does the sawdust necessarily need to be mahogany?
Protected from the water the nails will bleed out a lot less depending on the amount of protection. Using an orbital with a dust colector will be handy they fill up pretty fast. I buzzed out a Makita 5'' on that floor during the weekend so I bought a DeWalt that worked as well any of them with a 3 amp motor will problely do for Ya.
Doing the saw dust thing I get the glue in the hole then spread the dust over it then hit it with the sander. This cloges up the pad pretty fast but it puts a layer of fine dust on. Any dust will do the finish is going to darken it anyway. Just work with it and figure out your own way remember your not killing snakes no reason to rush it.
Penofin is short lived and building coats with it turns into a sticky mess. TWP 116 is a red/brown color.
Thanks John.
I've read your post a few times, and hoping you'll clarify. Are you suggesting this order:
1. Countersink
2. Sand the entire thing until happy
3. Do the glue/dust thing
4. Sand again until acceptable
Or would I countersink, then glue/dust, then sand?
Kim you deftenley think too much.
Use the sprit of a sound mind,think like a Country Boy. You got your deck with fasteners that need countersink,so do that. filling the holes,like I am thinking you will,can be done as you go thats the way I would do it that is push in the tightbond111_____ not that much ghesssssssss!!!! the bottle has a slanted tip use it_____ just to fill the void. brush over that hole with sawdust you got from someplace else by hand. Sand this area. As you go the fine dust will stack up in the bag/box dump it in a big bagie and use it as you go.
Its not all that bad just keep going Ya Big Babey!!
Depending on your skill and what you learn as you go it might take two passes but your a pretty smart person so it might not. You got it done all around. Sand the rest of of the deck and keep an eye out for holidays,voids your cant live with,Put The Finish On. Bang Bang done.Your not killing snakes slow down.
The Sun shines every place covered porch is no different. What I was talking bout was a Shop thing,My Shop that has lexann skylights blocking uv all together.
Kim your gender please,if your a girl, I have a Job for You. JonMon www.deckmastersllc.com
Ha ha ha.........you're assuming correct.....all chick here! My daddy taught me all I know, and I'm forever grateful. I've got a sister nearby you, in Tuttle. Next time I visit I'll have to look you up and buy you a beer for all you give to us weekend warriors!
Alright......one last question. I promise. Are you saying that sanding should be done while the glue is wet? Yes? I assume that must push the dust down into the glue? Maybe I'm just having a dumb chick moment........
Why do I work this late???
Kim, learn to work with the orbital sander. There is very little pushing done. Let the machine do the work.
Yes thats the way I do it while its wet although that glue sets up very quickley. After wiping the sawdust in the glue carefully by hand. I put the sander on it.This will add a light coat of dust in your repair combined with the sawdust you wiped on. Reason you wipe the dust on is to soak up some of the glue and save the pad a little guming up.
A case of LoneStar is more like it. J.

from the more-fuel-for-the-fires-of-war dept.
RL-20 II Rider writes "Although Intel is hard at work readying their next-gen Conroe core for a proposed 2H '06 release, it seems engineers at the company are still improving upon the existing 65nm Presler core. This review of the brand-new 3.73GHz Pentium Extreme Edition 965 dual-core processor shows that the CPU is based on a new stepping of the Presler core that runs cooler and overclocks higher than older chips, while consuming a bit less power as well."

Allergic to cats?
A dear friend wants to adopt a cat, but she is allergic to cats. Is there any way she could have a cat? Is there anyone here dealing with this problem, and if so how have you dealt with it?
Her symptoms around cats are sneezing, running nose, itchy eyes, sinus distress--pretty bad.
I'm allergic to cats and various other things ... I was on allergy shots for many, many years ... they helped. I have 4 cats these days and am no longer on allergy shots. I do take an over-the-counter generic Claritin daily ... it also helps.
But it sounds like your friends symptoms are pretty severe if she suffers just from being around other peoples cats ..
There are numerous ways to cut down on the allergans that a cat would produce, frequent bathing (if you can get the cat to allow that), frequent vaccuming, etc.
She should really google "allergic to cats" and read the info that comes up. There are tons of links ...
Before she adopts a cat, she should get the de-sensitization, have the results tested, and have her allergies field-tested by some heavy exposure to cats that aren't hers.
She could stay with someone who has cats, borrow a cat for a couple of weeks, etc.
But don't get the cat and then try to control the allergies.

"A refreshing vist to eternal truths"
As a practicing catholic, I believe Mr. Tolle in an inspiring and humble prose lays down the principles of a fulfilling and happy existence in this world. He does not wander in unmeaning theoretical discourse, instead he starts with common day experience and dwells into the wisdom of all major religions, including christianism but not limiting to it, to come up with pearls. Ecumenism at its best. I believe it will be appealing even for atheist, or people who are looking for meaning in their life.

Winning Abstracts from the 2011 Medical Student Abstract Competition: Rheum for Debate
Author: Rebekah Condit, Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2012
Introduction:Feltys Syndrome (FS) is classically defined as a triad of rheumatoid arthritis, splenomegaly, and neutropenia, and is found in 1-3% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. First described in 1924 there are new definitions and concurrent debate over therapy. There are no randomized control trials on treatment of Feltys syndrome; current goals of treatment focus on increasing the neutrophil count, preventing infections, addressing the splenomegaly, and/or treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
Case Presentation: A 50-year-old Caucasian male presents with a 2.5 day history of redness and increased swelling of his right little finger. The symptoms began with a splinter, and the next day he had erythema up to his right axilla, pain, fever, chills, and clear fluid drainage. The patient has no other significant history. The patient denied history of STDs, HIV, and IVDA (IV drug abuse), but endorsed a 70-pack-year history of tobacco abuse. On admission, the patient was afebrile with a palpable spleen and erythema and ecchymosis of right little finger. The patients WBC count was 0.9 on two separate occasions, and absolute neutrophil count was 108. His CRP and ESR were 117 and 29 respectively. The patients workup revealed a positive ANA, Rheumatoid factor, and anti-citrulline antibody along with clinical and radiographic signs of rheumatoid arthritis. Splenomegaly measuring 19 cm was confirmed on ultrasound. The triad of rheumatoid arthritis, splenomegaly and neutropenia was consistent with Feltys Syndrome. The patient was discharged on antibiotics, a colony-stimulating factor for his neutropenia, and had follow-up appointments with Rheumatology and Hematology clinics.
Discussion: Recent research suggests there is a new definition for Feltys syndrome; unexplained neutropenia with rheumatoid arthritis. The evolution of the disease has created a debate about the classification and treatment of Feltys Syndrome. Research has shown that Feltys syndrome may be included in a spectrum of disease with T-cell large granular lymphocyte leukemia, TLGL, with an umbrella of Rheumatoid arthritis. FS and TLGL are clinically and biologically similar with no specific test for differentiating the two diseases. This spectrum of disease leads to a question of whether treatment of FS and TLGL should be early and aggressive treatment of rheumatoid arthritis or treatment of neutropenia, infection, and splenomegaly.

People who have been infected with HIV are suffering from a depressed immune system. They are unable to fight off infections that someone with a healthy immune system would not think twice about. For example, in a healthy person, a simple yeast infection can be treated with some medicine and within a short period of time the person will never know they had the illness. Conversely, in a person with HIV, a simple yeast infection may lead to several other symptoms that can cause the person harm. Since their immune system is not functioning normally, the person is unable to fight off even the most common diseases.

Scented Kisses has got the sweetest booty in the whole wide world and she wants her man to show some love. She is a real sight to behold, kneeling on all fours on the bed so he can get a really good look at her ample toosh. Leaning over her man, she sucks on his dick like its candy. Then she lowers that vessel onto his face, pressing her minge right into his mouth. She spreads her butt cheeks open so he can squeeze his cock into her cunt, and he gives it to her hard from behind. But she likes it better on top and straddles his manhood, grinding her whole body all over him. As he presses into her her gigantic boobs squish out like balloons.

Platinum Hydro Whey vs. Gold Standard Whey?
June 16, 2011
Posted June 16, 2011
This is better post workout. hydrowhey is the fastest absorbing protein powder you can buy
Posted June 16, 2011
Depends on how you use it. Protein supplements were developed ideally on the post workout dose. Whey protein is fast digesting and meant to be taken within 30 minutes after a workout. You may know all this. The difference is, Hydro whey contains hydrolyzed whey peptides which is the most advanced and fast digesting protein on the market. The hydro whey is also very high in aminos which is key for building muscle. The Gold standard is your "standard" whey protein which can also be used post workout but will not deliver results as fast as hydro whey. Both are solid protein supplements but if you had the money to choose, you would wanna by hydro whey for post workout and Gold standard for meal replacements. Either can be helpful in taking first thing upon waking in the mornings as well. Hope this helps bro.
Posted June 16, 2011
You got some good information from these guys here, and just to add to it, if your like me and like a little bit of weight gain from a protein, gold standard would helpout more with that.
Posted June 17, 2011
thats a good point jay...they hydro whey'll feel like drinking water. you'll be hungry instantly after taking it post workout

This hotel is all old world charm and crystal chandeliers..just how we like it. Spacious room..we had a deluxe double which apart from a queen sized bed had a large cabinet housing tea and coffee making facilities, a large desk, an armchair and a sofa. The bathroom had a very large bath with a shower hose beside the bath as well as one overhead for use as a standing shower. The toilet was in a room of its own off the bathroom which we really liked - complete with gold tapped bidet.
As it was our anniversary, my husband had arranged online for roses to be put in the room just before we entered - what a lovely surprise. We did not have a breakfast option but that was no bother as there is a mall complete with supermarket and cafes right through the glass doors next to the lifts. We did have drinks in the lobby cafe which is very elegant..pricey, but it is 5 star so to be expected. We had an evening meal at Le Ciel restaurant on the top floor. We chose one of the degustation menus which had a wine accompanying each course. The food and wines were excellent and the staff were knowledgeable and incredibly pleasant.
WE would definitely recommend this hotel in Vienna for anyone who likes a bit of old world class and does not appreciate minimalist interiors when indulging in a bit of luxury. Staff throughout the hotel were pleasant and helpful. A true 5 stars.

As long as you are aware that this hotel sits in the midst of all the student partying, you will be fine. The rooms are old-ish and small, very European-like. The decor is very fun and made us laugh. You have to be a Cal fan to enjoy!! We didn't sleep well due to all the drunken yelling going on down on the street until maybe 3 in the morning. But, you are right in the middle of all the fun if you want that. We were not there on a game night. The restaurant/bar was packed downstairs (Saturday Night) so it's a popular place, we sat down for just dessert and it was excellent. Everyone working at the hotel is very friendly and service-oriented.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Located one block from the nations' top ranked public university, UC Berkeley, the Hotel Durant, is a full–service, 143 room boutique hotel, with a unique blend of classic Spanish Mediterranean architecture, modern conveniences and strong ties to the campus and community.

Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah Jessica Parker in J Brand Houlihan Cargo Pants
Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker was seen running errands in New York yesterday (25) before attending the premiere of Sex and the City 2. Sarah was wearing J Brand's Houlihan Cargo Pants in Vintage Black while she got her groceries. The movie doesn't release here until Friday so I have to wait a couple more days before I can see it, uh! I'm very excited though. Buy these pants in Vintage Black at Singer22 for $230.
Sarah Jessica Parker in MiH
A very comfy looking Sarah Jessica Parker, was spotted dropping off son James at school in New York. She wore a pair of MiH Roadtrip Jeans in Cirrus. I think the cuff on these jeans look very funny. But I guess it was an after thought cuff. Are any of you readers excited to see the "Sex in the City 2″ later this month?

Sarah Jessica Parker in Helmut Lang
Sarah Jessica Parker chose a pair of Helmut Lang skinny jeans while doing promotion for her recent movie 'Did You Hear About The Morgans?'. These jeans are so simple with such a great wash. I guess that is what you are going to get when you purchase a Helmut Lang. Have any of you seen the trailer for SJP's other movie 'Sex in the City 2?' Are any of excited to see it? Buy these jeans at La Garconne.

Sarah Jessica Parker in D Squared for Glamour
Sex and the City star, Sarah Jessica Parker, wears jeans by Helmut Lang and D Squared for her shoot on the new January 2010 issue of Glamour magazine. She looks gorgeous in her Oscar De La Renta Bolero cardigan, Christian Louboutin heels and D Squared boyfriend jeans. She looks as hot as her character Carrie Bradshaw does. During her interview she talks about her career, her children and her life. Here is a little snippet and you can read the full interview by clicking here.
GLAMOUR: So let's get to your next film project: Sex and the City 2. How has Carrie evolved?
SJP: The first movie had a lot of sadness in it, and it was very brave about breaking the rules of romantic comedy. This one is very much the antidote for that: It's a romp. It's about the idea of women's and men's roles in marriage, and old traditions versus new ones. The story is really fun, but it's also about something.
GLAMOUR: The married couple you and Hugh play in The Morgans is going through a rough patch. What's the most important ingredient for getting through a tough spot in a marriage?
SJP: I never really talk about this because too many [people] speculate about my marriage, anyway!
GLAMOUR: And now you're a new mother again. Congratulations, and what's it like?
SJP: Nothing can really describe what it's like to have two new little girls. It's been very different than when James arrived, since our family expanded in an untraditional way. We didn't plan on having two, but were doubly blessed, and it's been just wonderful. [Tabitha and Marion] just turned four months old today! One would prefer to be held 24 hours a day, and the other is already suffering from type A issues. It's been amazing but complicated because of my current work schedule, which I have enormous regrets about.
GLAMOUR: How would you say your style has evolved over the years?
SJP: It's just simpler; I don't buy anything trendy. I used to be more easily seduced by some momentary idea of what was fashionable. Now I'm slightly savvier. I still have the same ideas in my head about what looks good on me and what doesn't. I still will not wear turtlenecks.

Went for a an Adventerous Jog
Went on a short jog today. It was really fun because we reached a rocky beach that had large boulders where we had the change to practice some parkour and bouldering skills. We then reached a second beach at Quisset Bay, and climbed some trees to the top. We then headed back to campus because we had a ton of work to ...
Sketches and Drawings
... Then we did half contour and half not, so it allows you to every once a while look at your drawing and fix it. After that we did normal scratchings. Started with s tick, then bone, the barnacle, then seal jaw, then vertebrae and sea horse, and finally a crab claw that was colored in with water ...
Sketching Sceneries
We took a trip to Quisset Bay to practice our sketching skills. We all picked a spot and sat for 1 hour to sketch what we saw. It was slightly snowing, it was cold, and we had a pencil and an eraser. In the the first phot you can see a dock, I was sitting on that dock looking into the bay.
Geocaching with the Crew
Organized a goecache hunt with people from my crew and another crew of SEA semester. We grabbed the bicycles in our basement and went hunting. The first one was in the woods close to campus, the second one was behind a tree on a bike path, and the third one was by the Nabska lighthouse. The sunset was truly amazing. Also the rocks by the ocean had their caps frozen due to the intense cold weather, but forgot to take a photo of ...
First day of our tour of the New England States. After leaving Boston and a few more sights and stops which gave us even better understanding of this city we headed south with 45 folks on board and a very good guide and driver. Great bus too- very comfortable. The day was about colours and history. The colours were vivid from the start. As we got further south there was less colour as the dominant trees became scrub pine and oak. Oaks are only starting to turn. Pics 1-4. American ...

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.
