Family Caregiver Alliance
When an individual is diagnosed with dementia, one of the first concerns that families and caregivers face is whether or not that person should drive. A diagnosis of dementia may not mean that a person can no longer drive safely. In the early stages of dementia, some ? though not all ? individuals may still possess skills necessary for safe driving. Most dementia, however, is progressive, meaning that symptoms such as memory loss, visual-spatial disorientation, and decreased cognitive function will worsen over time. This also means that a person's driving skills will decrease and, eventually, he or she will have to give up driving. Many people associate driving with self-reliance and freedom; the loss of driving privileges is likely to be upsetting. Some individuals, recognizing the risks, will limit or stop driving on their own. Others may be unable to assess their own driving skills and may insist on driving even when it is no longer safe. Families and caregivers may have to intervene when an individual's symptoms pose too great a traffic risk.
Because the progression of dementia varies from person to person, it is difficult to know at what point an individual can no longer drive safely. This fact sheet provides guidelines to help caregivers and persons with dementia decide when and how to limit or stop driving.
As a general rule, individuals with early stage or mild dementia who wish to continue driving should have their driving skills evaluated immediately (see "Arrange for an Independent Driving Evaluation" below). Individuals with moderate or severe dementia should not drive.
You can assess an individual's level of functioning by observing his or her day-to-day behavior outside of a motor vehicle. Following are some signs that a person no longer has the necessary skills to drive safely. He or she:
It is important to compare present behavior with behavior before the onset of dementia. For example, weigh an individual's degree of "difficulty engaging in multiple tasks" in relation to his or her prior ability. Changes in behavior will be most noticeable to family and friends who have closely interacted with the individual over time. Share and discuss your observations with other family members, friends and health care providers.
The safest option for assessing a person's driving skills is to arrange for an independent driving evaluation. Prior to the evaluation, inform the examiners that the person being evaluated has dementia. Evaluations are sometimes available through driver rehabilitation programs or State Departments of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
Although laws vary from state to state, some states require physicians to notify the DMV of any patient diagnosed with dementia. The person with dementia may then be required to report to the DMV for a behind-the-wheel driver re-examination. In some states, individuals diagnosed with moderate or severe dementia may have their licenses automatically revoked. To find out about driving and dementia laws, you can call the Department of Motor Vehicles for the state in which the individual resides.
Because symptoms of dementia are likely to worsen over time, individuals who pass a driving evaluation should continue to be re-evaluated every six months. Individuals who do not pass must discontinue driving immediately.
If an individual clearly demonstrates that he or she can drive safely, it is still important for family and friends to continue monitoring the individual's driving behavior, as the individual's driving skills may decrease significantly in a short period of time. The objective of monitoring is to detect a problem before it becomes a crisis. If there are any doubts about safety, the person with dementia should not be driving.
It is often helpful to keep a written log of each incident of poor driving behavior. Following are some of the common warning signs.
Discuss any concerns you have with the individual, family members and health care providers. All involved will need to weigh potential risks and decide when the individual needs to stop.
You can also estimate an individual's potential for a traffic accident by taking the person along as a passenger and asking him or her to co-pilot. Ask the person to give you specific instructions about using blinkers, changing lanes, and following the rules of the road. If he or she has difficulty or becomes frustrated easily, it may be time for another in-dependent driving evaluation.
Some individuals are aware of having difficulty with driving and are relieved when others encourage them to stop. Many people, however, will find the loss of driving privileges and the inherent loss of in-dependence upsetting. Encourage the individual with dementia to talk about how this change might make him or her feel. Try to imagine what it would be like if you could no longer drive. Support groups provide a good venue for both the caregivers and the individual to talk about their feelings and get advice from others in a similar situation. A person often adjusts better if he or she is involved in discussions and decisions about when to stop driving.
If the individual is reluctant to talk about driving, ask the individual's physician or care manager to bring up the subject of driving during health care visits. A lawyer or financial planner may also be willing to discuss driving as part of the individual's legal and financial planning.
Begin discussions early and try to establish guidelines about when and how to limit, and eventually stop, driving. Try to reach an agreement regarding which types of driving behavior would signal the need to stop driving. Each family will have to find the solutions that work best in their situation.
Because the progression of dementia varies, individuals who have demonstrated the ability to drive safely should still begin gradually to modify their driving. This can reduce the risk of an accident if the individual's driving skills decrease significantly between evaluations. Making the transition from driver to passenger over time can help ease the adjustment. Encourage individuals to try some of the following examples:
Individuals able to maintain an active life often adjust better to the loss of driving privileges. Following are some ways to reduce the need to drive:
It will be important to make alternative transportation arrangements so that the individual's mobility and activity level are not unduly restricted. Commonly used transportation options are:
Family and Friends. Family members, friends, and neighbors can offer to drive the individual to social engagements and appointments. Consider making a list with the names, phone numbers, and times of availability of those willing to provide transportation.
Public Transportation. For individuals in the early stage of dementia, public transportation may be a good alternative to driving. It works best for those who are already familiar with the public transportation system in their area. Persons in the later stages of dementia may not be able to figure out routes and schedules.
Taxis. For individuals in the early to middle stages of dementia who do not have behavior problems, taxis can be a good option if someone meets the individual at both ends of the taxi ride. You may be able to set up a payment account with the taxi company so that the individual with dementia does not have to handle money.
Senior and Special Needs Transportation Services. The Yellow Pages of many telephone books have a special section in the front with the names and addresses of various service organizations. Look under transportation or community services for the names of agencies that provide transportation for special needs.
Eldercare Locator at (800) 677-1116, a nationwide directory assistance service designed to help older persons and caregivers locate local support resources, including transportation, for aging Americans.
Ideally, an individual will limit or stop driving on his or her own. However, some individuals with dementia may forget that they should not drive or insist on driving even though it is no longer safe. While it is important to maintain respect for the individual's feelings, you must put safety first.
As a last resort, you may have to prevent his or her access to a car. Some methods to do that include:
Balancing safety with respect for an individual's desire to drive can be difficult and emotionally trying. Enlist the support of other family, friends, caregiver support groups and health professionals when making and implementing difficult decisions about driving. For further information and support, contact the service organizations under "Resources" at the end of this fact sheet.

I wasn't even on the list last year, so thanks to all the loyal readers who made this nomination possible.
If you are interested in voting, go to this link by July 31 and complete the survey (I am about 5 pages in). You don't even have to complete the whole thing (unless you want prizes).
OK, enough pandering for one night.

In the hurried pursuit of beauty care and concern, it is sometimes worthwhile to take a moment and consider the purpose of it all. When she founded the company called simply "philosophy," the beauty expert (and sometimes philosopher, herself) Cristina Carlino chose to take as her ideal to celebrate the beauty of the human spirit. And, so, her series of beauty care products called "philosophy field of flowers" chooses to use only the small, simple letters in its name. In her approach to offer what women most want to touch their skin, she uses only products which include the finest, most-respected and innovative skin care products today. The series of philosophy field of flowers skin care products offer an approach to this ideal.
When using the philosophy field of flowers, remember that they not only present a way to center one's own image of beauty, but they offer scientifically proven and medically accepted ingredients and technologies. It is possible to have both the spirit and the science together. Bound in an integral whole, philosophy field of flowers provides the best of all.
How does one begin the day? Do you wish to greet a new dawn with the freshness and fulfillment of philosophy field of flowers? Here it is before you. In your own spirit of beauty, you can approach the as-yet-unknown challenges of the day with lotions, showers and sprays of fragrance. There is nothing to stop your own choices of what increases your own feeling of beauty and increased spirit.
One of your first choices can be the philosophy field of flowers Shower Gel Wildflowers, which provides a rich, cleansing conditioning foam for your skin and hair. The botanical oils and extracts included in this special gel provide the essential ingredients you need to soften and benefit your skin and scalp. If you choose, you can luxuriate in a relaxing foaming bath, taking your own needed time to absorb the scent of wildflowers. Why not? You deserve it.
Afterwards, you can indulge your senses by wrapping yourself in the scent of freshness with philosophy field of flowers Body Lotion Magnolia Blossom. Simply gently rub the cream onto your moist skin after your shower or bath. If you wish, there is philosophy field of flowers Duo, a paired offering of a lotion of spray fragrance which you can use to moisturize, soften and condition your dry skin. Use these during your first greeting to the day, when all is still possible. The lotion uses shea butter and a suite of carefully chosen botanical oils, while the spray fragrance offers the scent of peonies and camellias.

Perfect Dress
I purchased this dress for my engagement party. It fit perfectly and was is made very well and true to size. It is very classy but simple and is perfect for cocktail style parties or weddings. I love it!
August 29, 2013
Very Prety
I will be wearing this to my rehearsal dinner for my wedding in October and it is such a pretty dress! It fits well and looks very classy.
August 15, 2013
My Rehearsal Dress!
I purchased this dress for my wedding rehearsal dinner. I typically wear size 4 in Limited dresses and this was no exception (my measurements are 5'5", 130lbs, 36C, and I think 27" waist and 37" hips).
I like how it shows off my legs without being too short. The shimmer of the silver in the jacquard material adds a bit of pizzazz. I also really like the sheer overlay on the top and the keyhole cut out in the sheer layer on the back. My friends commented that it's a very unique dress, and I agree.
The only thing I don't love about this dress is that the jacquard is just a little itchy on my thighs. But this is very minor and I like the dress so much regardless that I chose it over another really amazing dress that I found!
August 15, 2013
So Stunning!
I LOVE this dress! It's modern, classy, and beautiful. I wore this to a graduate function, and got SO many compliments. I paired it with some navy heels and a bright red lip-- perfect! The fit is so flattering, and the fit is true to size. I'm 5'4", 130 lbs and a size 4 was perfect. The only criticism I have is the skirt can be a little itchy due to the material used, but wearing a slip underneath took care of that.
Overall, this is a great dress that I can see wearing for many special occasions to come.

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.

The top shelf stuff, if you use a lot of it, tends to take over.
How do the kids like your pies?
Edit: And what tomatoes are those? I know sauce on top really makes the color pop, but that color is especially appealing.
I must be the only one not sold on the steel plate! It reduced my cooking time on my standard NYish style pie by one minute, with the distinct possibility of burning the bottom and creating too much char for a NY pie. I'll be sticking with my trusty stone, I'm letting @dhorst borrow my steel to let her see if she gets more out of it then I did.
I wasn't at first either for the same reasons, but I've been trying a new method that produces much better results. @ 550, the pizza is only on the steel for 2 minutes to take advantage of the explosive oven spring, and then on the top shelf (no stone) for a bit to get the browning. An interesting hybrid method which I think has produced some great pizza, but I've only done it twice so far.

Katowice Slaski Stadium.
05 July 2005
Katowice Slaski Stadium.
After the past couple of shows it felt like a great luxury to be at the gig so early. I went in for lunch and spent the afternoon working on the forthcoming video shoot. It was another gorgeous day and the stadium is in the middle of a very big park which has its own zoo, lakes and a chair-lift cable car system. By about 4pm we couldnt resist the temptation any longer and so went out to have a go on the chair lift. It makes a circuit of the park in three sections and takes about 45 minutes all up. The trip was unexpectedly blissful, largely because it was so quiet up there. Swinging gently as we were carried through the trees in the sunshine. Talk about chill out - we should have one of these at every gig to calm everybody down.
By the time we got back to earth the band had arrived and the sky was beginning to cloud over. By the time The Magic Numbers were on stage the weather was looking positively threatening and The Killers got severely drenched as the heavens opened. What a drag. During the between-bands changeover the rain just came down, it was torrential. Out in the crowd umbrellas appeared and creative uses for rubbish bags were being demonstrated all over the venue. It was looking grim for U2, but amazingly the storm passed and we got away with the rest of the night being, if not dry at least free of further precipitation.
It was a great gig, entirely due to the audience being so up for it. The best moment was going into New Years Day where the audience, entirely of their own volition, produced flags and scarves. Everyone on the floor of the stadium had red, everyone in the grandstands had white, so the whole stadium turned into a huge Polish flag. I have never seen an audience do anything like it before - getting it together to surprise and delight us. I think my mouth must have fallen open. Who organized this? The fact that it was premeditated made it all the more extraordinary; an audience consciously plotting to put on a show for the performers. It was absolutely wonderful, humbling, thrilling all at the same time. A great, great crowd, and a unique atmosphere.
Hotel. Few drinks. Bed. Stupidly late.

Comparing Bridge cameras to EVIL cameras
The reason I prefer the bridge camera over an EVIL or DSLR is that there is no interchangeable lens. Photography is my hobby not my job. Dragging a bag full of lenses is no fun. My current bridge camera has an 18X zoom and plenty of control goodies.
When the fellow with a Nikon D700 tells me that my ape photo taken at the LA Zoo is excellent and shares his P&S photos why would I want to buy the more expensive camera that offers lots of nuisances with little of no improved photo quality? Reply |

Ridley Excalibur $0.00
Need help?
Ask an expert.

The Excalibur is Ridley's best-selling race frame for good reason. At a svelte 1100 grams, it's second only to the Helium in Ridley's spectrum of lightness. So, why the 200 gram disparity? Simply put, the Helium uses a slightly higher grade of carbon fiber, and therefore less of it, netting a lower weight, while the Excalibur relies on 24 ton carbon with 30 ton reinforcements in the high stress areas of the frame. And while this is where the bulk of cost savings are derived, it's also where the smidgen of extra weight comes from. However, don't think that you'll sacrifice stiffness or ride quality one bit.
Unlike the triangulated 'Sharp Edge Design' that you find on the Damocles, or the ultra-aerodynamic tubes of the Noah, the Excalibur is built with oversized round tubes. These create massive junctures at the head tube and down tube, and at the bottom bracket. Combined, you can expect a heightened level of stability under load and at speed, as well as a powerful resistance to torsional and lateral deflection.
And while you might look at the Excalibur and think that it's a mere kermesse bike, the sort of 'grip-it-and-rip-it' rocket ship suited for Belgian circuit races, think again. The Excalibur was the official team bike of the UCI Continental Pro team, Unibet. Unibet riders cracked the top 20 in epics such as Flanders and Roubaix, as well as a host of other rough-and-tumble Spring Classics. And inline with their results, Team Unibet knew that the secret of the Excalibur's success was how the geometry of the Excalibur strikes the ideal balance between compliance and rigidity.
You'll be hard-pressed to find another carbon bike in the Excalibur's price class built with such care (both structural and aesthetic), with similar lightness, durability, smoothness, and with anything even closely resembling its racing pedigree. And with features like a tapered head tube, a full monocoque carbon 4ZA fork, and Ridley's hollow bottom bracket technology, the Excalibur proves itself as a thoroughbred with the hallmark characteristics of frames priced well above it.
The Ridley Excalibur is available in the color Matte Black/red/white and in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large. Given its compact geometry, we strongly suggest that you focus on the effective top tube length as you make a determination of the proper size. The frame comes with a painted-to-match Ridley 4ZA Excalibur monocoque full carbon fiber fork and a proprietary FSA integrated headset. It requires a 31.6mm seatpost, an English bottom bracket, and a 34.9mm front derailleur.

As students prepare to transition out of school, what types of jobs should schools be preparing their student's for in competitive employment?
October 10, 2011 at 9:51 am
Sharon Applegate Long It's so hard to say. Schools should have a variety of programs based on ablities. They should garner community support so a mix of venues are available. My son is not very verbal, so he has obviously different needs than a young adult who can communicate to an employer.
October 10, 2011 at 11:59 am
How does an autistic youth (anywhere on the spectrum) approach his first potential employer? What is the approach like when a teen wants a job at a movie theater, the local sandwich shop, or on a landscaping crew?
I don't see it working how most teens would do it, but it also seems odd as a parent to make the introduction and have the "hard conversation" with the potential future boss. Does anyone have experience on how to start the ball rolling. I'm fairly sure that after the job begins, things would/might work out fine, but I'm not sure how to make that first step.
October 11, 2011 at 12:56 am
I'm in the same boat. My son wants to work at a pizza place…I may have found a good fit through someone I met by presenting a transition workshop at my son's high school. But if this person doesn't have a job for him, it seems weird to do the legwork for him with other employers.
October 10, 2011 at 12:11 pm
In the community where I live, there is much emphasis on young children with autism, but no real support for teens and adults. When my son with Aspergers got old enough to seek part-time work, he was at a distinct disadvantage when compared with neuro-typical peers seeking the same jobs. Things like eye contact, interviewing skills, filling out job applications– all affected by his condition. Add to that the fact that he is "clueless" about what jobs are appropriate for him– job hunting was very frustrating. How unfortunate this is, since people on the spectrum are perfect for many occupations that neuro-typicals would find tedious at best. His High School was no help at all– the counselor basically told us to go to the Work Force Center and good luck! I finally had to call in a favor, since it became apparent that my son would not get hired on his own. He was (reluctantly) hired as a busboy at a club where my family has a membership. Now his employers all love him, sing his praises constantly. He is punctual, meticulous, polite, and has a terrific work ethic. This job has been wonderful for him, a means of independence and a huge stride toward adulthood. I'm grateful that I was able to make that happen, but often think about those young adults who do not have the connections to do what I did for my son. I wish that there was something I could do to help them, too. Childhood autism is a challenging experience for everyone involved, but people often forget that THESE KIDS GROW UP and they have a place in the world and much to offer it. More programs are needed to help them find employment and guidance toward careers.

That is a GREAT ARTICLE!!! My daughter Ciara is 17 and has Aspergers Syndrome and I am terrified for her because I know that it will be time for emloyment pretty soon. She is an Artist of Japanese Anime and takes Electronics here in Ohio but I know that my NT daughter had a hard time getting a job so for Ciara who has A.S,. it will be even harder and like your son, she posesses all of thise same loving qualities, EVERYONE who meets her falls in love with her and her Teachers LOVE how meticulous she is and her attention to detail however I know none of those things will get her a job. :( Good for you for stepping in! (we are originally from Port St. Lucie, Fl) :)
October 10, 2011 at 12:47 pm
As a competitive job I would go for example to jobs which can we count the result of it, such as newspaper delivering , how many costemers you can deal with in the fast food restaurants, how many books you can rearrange in a library or bookstore also ……

Hello. : ) I am 17 and have Asperger's Syndrome. I formally had a job at Bob Evans. Working at a restaurant was rather difficult for me seeing as I also have anxiety disorder. Juggling my jobs that I was supposed to do and jobs I was expected to do were two completely different aspects. When I first worked there I thought the point of working was to only do the jobs that were given to me when I was told to do them. And once I began doing that my employers did not seem very happy with me. So I slowly began realizing that I had to do more for the team instead of just getting by. So I helped others whenever they needed it, no matter if asked or not. But another issue was simply memorizing the menu for carry out. It took me 8 months to feel comfortable with a certain amount of meals. I worked there for 9 months in total. Being a senior and working at a restaurant at the same time were difficult feats. I didn't get along with most of the co workers and I felt too stressed in the busy environment. I want to work at a book store however they only hire 18+ It's my dream job, but I guess I'll have to wait it out.

That is Awesome I hope you get to work in a bookstore or Library like you dream of. Actually I am sure you will! My daughter is 17 with Aspergers. Good luck to you!
October 11, 2011 at 10:30 pm
I'm actually doing my Senior research paper on Asperger's as well and while picking up some books at the Library to further my research I also picked up an application ;) They hire 16+ Here's to hoping!!!!! I'm so excited.

When I went to get a job I went to a Navy Recruiter. That was in 1996 and they were pretty desperate to get people into he military. They did not care that I had AS. I made it through boot camp and later Cooks' School okay. They sent me over to Naples, Italy. Most of my co-workers' noticed I had some quirks and differences' about me, but I did my job well. They rarely bothered me much about them as a certain Petty Officer's substance abuse issues' drew the attention away from me. I loved that job because I got to spend my every weekend absorbed in my childhood obscession–Ancient Rome!! I must have been to Pompeii and Ercolano dozens' of times' as well as other Roman ruins' around Naples. I even got to see Capua where Spartacus fought as a Gladiator. I'm now out of the service due to a leg injury and tinitus and get disability. Jobs' are hard to come by now and I have not gotten any civilian job. I do awful at interviews' because of the AS even though job coaches' have tried to help me in vain. At least I have the VA to help me out so I am not indigent and have a decent place to live. I wish I still had a job. Oh well.

My son has been lucky in that his school system has placed him in supported employment for several years – everything from cleaning at the local hospital, packing dental supplies and stocking at the local TJ MAXX. The problem is finding a competitive employment position. He will soon be 21 so we are nearing the "age out" and even with these experiences he is having extreme difficulty with finding anyone to even interview him.
I still feel the school system is doing all it can in our area. Many other schools should be doing as much. -

I am a special educator who has the responsibility for finding real job training opportunties for our high school students with disabilities. The IEP now includes a very formalized section that deals with transition from high school. Any special educator should have specific goals and objectives in this IEP that addresses work training and/or education. Depending on a student's understanding of a job and his or her specific abilitiy to develop particular job skills, the IEP would be written appropriately at their level of understanding. For example I have a student with severe autism. Right now her IEP is focused on teaching her what our job training office is and what happens in there. For another student the IEP is written to develop specific skills at a real job site with the intention of actually being hired at the end of his senior year. I work closely with Vocational Rehabilitation also and the local developmental service agencies and together we usually manage to find employment for most of my graduating seniors. Special educators may need to acquire additional trainng and education so that they can help a student obtain employment. A terrific resource for both parents and special educators is National Secondary Transition Technical Assistance Center (nsttac).

I am currently teaching in Mansfield public schools and looking to transition my students into the workplace. I am interested in finding job opportunities for my student.

NEW YORK — Early Wednesday morning, a Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) employee working on the tracks was fatally struck by a northbound E train, according to Gothamist.
The victim, a 58-year-old, was pronounced dead at the scene and trains were delayed during the investigation. For the full story, click here.
Grants awarded are part of a Notice of Funding Availability it issued in July 2014 to distribute new FY14 Omnibus funding as well as unobligated funds from the High-Speed Intercity Passenger Rail Program.
According to the FRA, which has promoted the adoption of the system by a handful of railroads so far, the system complements existing safety programs, builds a positive safety culture, creates an early warning system, focuses on problems instead of people, provides an incentive for learning from errors and targets the root cause of an issue, not the symptom.
Additionally, the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority has reduced its estimates by $569,000 for both streetcar fare revenue and what it believes it can capture from those who want to advertise on the vehicles.
Some of the benefits discussed by a CityLab report, include a 70% savings in staff, higher frequencies, significant operational savings and more room for passengers.
While an audit found that one of every 10 light rail passengers may not be paying fares, Metro Transit reports 94% compliance on its Green Line and 97% compliance on its Blue Line. Moving away from an honor system and installing turnstiles could cost the agency $107 million, according to the report.

Ryu leads Dodgers into rubber match with Brewers
Peralta counters for Milwaukee aiming to get past rough starts
The Brewers have hit left-handed pitching well this season, but they don't have the record to show for it.
Milwaukee leads the National League with a .436 slugging percentage against lefties, with 16 homers and a .754 OPS. But the Brewers are just 4-14 against southpaws, and will face another in Dodgers starter Hyun-Jin Ryu on Wednesday in the finale of a three-game series at Miller Park.
Even Brewers manager Ron Roenicke can't explain his club's wacky numbers against left-handed pitching.
"Maybe we're not pitching well that day, I'm not sure," Roenicke said. "Even though we're real right-handed, it's not like we've killed lefties in the time I've been here."
Ryu and the Dodgers will look to end a six-game road trip better than they started. The rookie walked five in five innings against the Braves in his last outing on Friday, when the Dodgers fell, 8-5, to begin the trip.
Los Angeles was swept in three games in Atlanta before a 3-1 victory on Monday thanks to Clayton Kershaw's complete game. But the Dodgers lost again on Tuesday, 5-2.
Ryu is the first of four straight lefties to start for the Dodgers for the first time in nearly four years. But the Korean is coming off his shortest outing of the season, and said he was "off balance" against the Braves.
"It's more of my timing between the upper body and lower body not being in sync as it usually is," he said. "I feel bad I couldn't go longer for my teammates."
Ryu has struggled on the road, going 1-1 with a 4.50 ERA in five starts. The Dodgers haven't been much better, though, with a 7-13 mark away from home.
Wily Peralta will start for the Brewers, looking to avoid his third straight loss. The right-hander beat the Dodgers last month in Los Angeles, allowing three runs on six hits in six innings. But he's 0-2 with a 7.36 ERA in his last two starts.
Dodgers: Closer situation remains cloudy
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly would not name his closer before Tuesday's game, and didn't need one in the 5-2 loss.
The bullpen has struggled from top to bottom recently, with four relievers a combined 0-8 this month.
Brandon League has a 5.51 ERA, Kenley Jansen has three losses and given up four homers and Ronald Belisario has allowed eight of 12 inherited runners to score.
"I'd really like to see the bullpen get its confidence back and some semblance of order and get the guys in the roles we designed," Mattingly said. "I know where I want it to go, it just hasn't gone there. They set the roles the way they are pitching. Now it's hard to say, 'That guy deserves that inning.'"
Still, Mattingly has leaned towards Jansen in high-leverage situations over the past week.
Brewers: Gorzelanny, Narveson on the mend
The Brewers are in position to get left-handers Tom Gorzelanny and Chris Narveson back from the disabled list in the next two weeks.
Gorzelanny tossed 20 pitches in a live batting practice on Tuesday and aims to return to the Brewers' bullpen on Friday when they start a three-game set against the Pirates at Miller Park. The reliever was placed on the 15-day DL on May 11 with left shoulder tendinitis, but said he was able to throw all of his pitches in Tuesday's session.
Narveson, placed on the 15-day DL on April 8 with a sprained left middle finger, threw a bullpen session on Tuesday and is scheduled to face live hitters on Friday. If things continue to progress, Narveson could begin a rehab assignment at the beginning of next week.
"The finger felt good. Just kind of taking it day by day and see how it goes Friday against hitters," Narveson said. "You're just trying to prepare yourself and get your body ready to pitch again. I think you expect yourself to hit the ground running once you come back."
Worth noting
• The Brewers are 7-2 against the Dodgers at Miller Park since 2012.
• The Dodgers are 0-16 when trailing after six innings this year.

Aerial photo shows the damage caused by Saturday night's explosion on the Southeastside. / Matt Kryger / The Star from WTHR Chopper 13
Authorities this morning started letting some residents back into the Richmond Hill neighborhood, where two people died in an explosion, but houses nearest to the blast remained off-limits.
Firefighters allowed people to return to homes with little or no structural damage that were farthest from the epicenter of the explosion that rocked the Southeastside subdivision Saturday night. These homes, marked with white tags, remained without power and once residents went back in they could not leave on Sunday.
Residents were allowed back into homes that were moderately damaged -- marked with yellow tags -- to retrieve pets, medicine and other items, but they had to be escorted by a firefighter.
Under most circumstances, residents were not allowed back into the most heavily damaged homes nearest the blast -- marked with red tags. Public safety radio traffic indicated one resident may have been allowed to return to a red-tagged home to retrieve a wallet.
For Scott Alexander and Lynne Smith, who live a block away on Alcona Drive, returning to their home was a bittersweet experience. They had been worried about their dog, a pug named Yoda, since Saturday night, when they rushed home after they received an alert that the security at their house had been breached.
When they arrived at the neighborhood, police would not let them near the home, so they went with others to the shelter at Mary Bryan Elementary School, and eventually spent the night with some friends who live nearby.
This afternoon, they returned to their home, its garage door punched in, and began the search for Yoda. Nearly 12 hours after the blast, the frightened dog was found hiding in a closet. "He was happy to see us for sure," Alexander said.
That's when they noticed the collapsed ceiling and other structural damage that suggested the house may have been jarred off its foundation.
Three homes were destroyed in the blast.
Police and fire officials did not confirm the exact addresses, but according to neighbors and witnesses, the central point of the explosion appeared to be 8349 Fieldfare Way.
Marion County tax records show that home is owned by Monserrate R. Shirley.
Also destroyed were neighboring homes.
The house to the north, 8343 Fieldfare Way, is owned by Glenn and Gloria Olvey. The house to the south, 8355, is owned by John D. and Jennifer L. Longworth.
Strangers reach out to help those in need
After the explosion late Saturday night displaced more than 100 residents, Doug Karr opened his home to a couple strangers and their dog.
"I was watching the news and I got to thinking, I got extra rooms, I got extra stuff, why don't we go do something," Karr said.
Roy and Doris Jarnagin spent the night in Karr's spare bedroom, along with Tanner, their cocker spaniel.
"He and his daughter opened up his house to us," Doris said, noting they just couldn't leave without Tanner.
"We couldn't leave him behind because of all the broken glass in the house."
Karr also drove the Jarnagins back to the house to get Roy's heart medication.
The area remained without power and police threatened to arrest anyone found wandering through the affected neighborhood.

Savings for the Poor: Banking on Mobile PhonesIgnacio MasUniversity of Oxford - Said Business School; Tufts University August 23, 2010 World Economics, Vol. 11, No. 4, Oct.-Dec. 2010 Abstract: The paper reviews the relevance of formal financial services - and in particular savings - to poor people, the economic factors that have hindered the mass-scale delivery of such services in developing countries, and the technology-based opportunities that exist today to make massive gains in financial inclusion. We also highlight the benefits to government from universal financial access, as well as the key policy enablers that would need to be put in place to allow the necessary innovation and investments to take place.

Cover Uncovered: Forlorn Funnies Vol. 1 by Paul Hornschemeier | |
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under Paul Hornschemeier, Coming Attractions | 15 Nov 2012 2:30 PM |
Hot pixels! Paul Hornschemeier just revealed the cover art for Forlorn Funnies Vol. 1, the first volume of his new one-man anthology series which we have the pleasure of bringing to you in September of next year. (You may remember it was originally announced for Fall 2010, but then Paul got busy with little things like getting married, moving, becoming a dad, doing artwork and animation for an IFC show amongst other projects... stuff like that.) For several months now Paul has been revealing work-in-progress glimpses (along with sketchbook artwork) on his Tumblr blog, so head over there for a taste of things to come.
