Support group leaderDanville, Calif.Board term ending: January 2015 (second term)
Rita and her husband Guy Orth live in Danville, Calif. She was diagnosed with PAH in 1999 and after being on calcium channel blockers for a short time, started on Flolan in 2000. Rita was working in a hospital at a job she loved on the medical/surgical units and ICU/CCU. However, shortly after diagnosis she went on disability with the encouragement of her cardiologist.
While searching the internet for more information about the disease Rita discovered PHA. She called the Patient-to-Patient Support Line and spoke with PHA founder Pat Paton on many occasions. Rita has been volunteering for the Support Line for several years as she wants to give back the hope and encouragement she received to others who are newly diagnosed. This shows in her other activities as well.
Rita and Guy are the leaders of the San Jose, Calif. PH support group, and Rita is on the 2010 Conference Committee as the chair of Conference support groups. She has also been on the planning committee of the California PH Forum since 2000. In addition, she is a patient advocate volunteer for seniors in skilled nursing facilities in her county. Rita has been to every PHA conference since she was diagnosed and was so inspired by the advocacy work and research efforts for a cure that she included PHA in her will. Rita says, "I have always been a big patient advocate and even more so now that I am the patient!"

This was one of those things that hit me like a ton of bricks just a little while ago. This is a little long - sorry.
Theres that thing in the book thats called the "resentment prayer" - I think its somewhere in How it Works - It says I'm supposed to ask God to help me give the person I'm mad at the same patience, tolaerance and understanding that I would "cheerfully give" to a sick friend. Then it goes on to tell me how to ask God to keep me from getting angry at them. Boy I hated that "cheerfully" thing - made my blood boil at first.
But you know sponsors they tell you that you have a resentment and maybe you should pray for the guy. Thats the time I really hate sponsors. But I do what he says anyhow because it works. So I was doing this and got used to praying for people I had a grudge against. After a while God started educating me that its the only way I can pray for someone I dont like that makes sense. I pray that God blesses them like He does to me - that way nothing I pray for them is against His will. I dont ask Him to do anything different than I ask Him to do for me.
Well this made sense to me and it always works for me because my resentment and anger goes away. But the problem I kept on having is that darn "cheerful" thing. I can pray for these people that are my enemies and mean it with my heart - but jeez cheerful? I pray for them because I know its right and it works, but I sure dont like doing it. And the book also says that there are things I have to do that I dont like to do.
So I got this book by a catholic guy named Thomas Keating because I heard he was good on meditation which I want to do better because its part of step 11 and getting closer to God. Then I read this part in the first couple chapters.
Father Keating says that when we have war and violence and hate - we are hurting God. Then I thought for a minute that if I hate somebody or have a resentment against them - then I have the same feelings about God. God loves me and helps me the most out of everyone so why would I want to hurt Him? Then Father Keating goes on to say that God is so much acquainted with our lives and our deaths that Jesus said "Whatever you do to the least of these little ones, you do the same unto me."
Boy did that hit me like a ton of bricks. If Im driving down the road and some guy cuts me off and I fly my middle finger at him - I'm doing the same thing to God! If I wish that sorry S.O.B. who critiszed me at the meeting would eat poop and die - Im wishing that would happen to God. This whole thing that Father Keating wrote really opened my eyes and gave me a "moment of clarity" that I really needed.
Now I can "cheerfully" pray for those that do me wrong. Because its better for them to get to know God in a better way than for me to wish they just go off somewhere and die. I guess I realized that God loves them just as much as He loves me even though they act like jerks. When I drank and when I was getting sober early on I was a jerk for sure. And I also used to cut off people a lot too. Somebody must have prayed for me to get here alive - so now I look at that as a job I can do for others too.
Sorry this is so long but one more thing - this is something God kinda spoke to me. What would happen if that jerk (any jerk that gets me mad) didnt have anyone praying for him? He would be without a prayer. I wouldnt want to ever be without a prayer in front of God. So its a lot easier now to pray for those that I dont like AND be "cheerful".

i am very please with this purchase. for a reasonable amount of money i got a mattress that is perfect for my needs! Mattresses preferences vary for everybody. For me, this mattresses has the right combination of firmness... which allows me to sleep really well... and plushness... which keeps me from wanting to crawl out in the morning. This is toward the bottom of the beautyrest line, which has more coils than the beautysleep line. In my opinion, it is much better to have a basic beautyrest, than the fanciest beautysleep.
Back hasnt hurt since we got it. Sleeping thru the night and its very comfortable.
I was so hopeful when I ordered this mattress, because it claims to be firm, which is what I need to sleep well. From the very first night I slept on it, I knew I was in trouble, because it definitely does not feel firm. I have been waking up with a backache every morning for the month that I have had it. And being a non-refundable purchase, I am out of luck with overstock.com who will not stand behind the purchase of this mattress. Maybe I was foolish for ordering a mattress without laying on it first, but I trusted to overstock.com to be honest and truthful in describing the quality of the set.
We're been using this mattress for a month now, and we love it! We're sleeping more comfortably and more soundly. It's the perfect amount of firmness! One thing that may be a problem after a while- we did notice that there are already indents on both of our sides. I don't feel like that should happen after only a month, although I'm sure it would likely happen eventually. Not loving our "valleys", but still happy overall.
An average mattress set, worth the discounted price Overstock is selling for. For the coil count, I was expecting less movement in the bed, however I agree that this mattress is the right amount of firmness/softness as indicated in the description. If you're used to higher-quality mattresses, you'll notice the difference. If not, you'll still appreciate the good value. I would recommend this set for the value and also our delivery was excellent.
rated by Consumer Reports as best in class and I have to agree. Purchased for my son and I have slept there myself it is so comfortable with the right amount of firmness and softness.

Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

Alert me when new vintages of West Bend Pinot Noir are available for purchase.
Region: North Carolina, Other US
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Item no. 22481
Notable Facts Other than Burgundy, Pinot has been successful in areas like Oregon, California and lately, New Zealand - the Central Otago region to be exact. Burgundian Pinot Noir typically offers flavors and aromas of red fruit, summer pudding and baking spices. As the wine matures - and great Burgundies are able to do so for years - the flavors become more like the earth the wine comes from- mushrooms, truffles - and the wine gains tremendous complexity. Pinot Noir from the new world like Oregon and California typically exude stronger fruit intensity. Some are able to reach a high level of complexity, structure and age. Others are wonderful for drinking now with a myriad of foods. Many may wax poetic about this grape, the reason being that Pinot Noir produces an amazing contradiction in wine - something so delicate and subtle, yet powerful and mesmerizing.

Kobe Bryant had surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon in mid-April. / Robert Hanashiro, USA TODAY Sports
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. â?? Los Angeles Lakers Media Day was more like Question Day.
Answer Day will be held later, TBA.
Nobody, not even Kobe Bryant, knows when the Lakers superstar, now 35 years old and still recovering from an April surgery to repair a torn left Achilles tendon, will play in another basketball game.
Could it be in the preseason?
"I don't know," Bryant said Saturday at the team's practice facility.
Could it be opening night Oct. 29 against the cross-town L.A. Clippers?
"I honestly don't know," Bryant said.
Any idea at all?
"Not really," he said. "There is no timetable."
How far along is he on his rehab?
"I don't really know how to answer that question," Bryant said. "I feel good. It feels like the hard part is over. I don't really have a timetable. I need to get in shape. I'll wait until I'm ready. Then I'll get out there and go. I don't think I've ever played a season when I was 100%."
Aside from their best player having no idea when he can play or really how effective he'll be with a rebuilt Achilles, the Lakers are good to go.
That includes point guard Steve Nash, who was limited to 50 games in his first year in L.A. because of a broken left leg and a strained right hamstring. He will turn 40 in February.
"I'm feeling great," said Nash, who arrived at training camp a few days early to play in some full court scrimmages with some of the Lakers' youngsters.
He said he hopes he's completely over the injuries that bothered him all last year.
"I don't want to be completely naïve and say that, because you never know what's around the corner," he said. "But I feel great. I hope I can stay on top of it and make it a thing of the past. But that's something I have to prove every day."
Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni said Nash's minutes will have to be limited, possibly by sitting him out on the second night of back-to-backs or by limiting them each game. That's a reason the Lakers, who already have a high-quality backup in Steve Blake, acquired a third veteran point guard in Jordan Farmar, who played for the Lakers previously.
Also ready to go is Pau Gasol, who missed 33 games last year because of plantar fasciitis, a concussion and tendinitis in both knees. He underwent surgical procedures on both knees in May and was on crutches for three weeks.
"I can't wait to start practicing and see the results," Gasol said.
Gasol, 33, will move back to his natural position at center with the free agent departure of center Dwight Howard.
He's looking forward to the move and, perhaps, to a little less drama this season without the constant focus on how he can coexist with enigmatic Howard.
That's three great players â?? former MVPs Nash and Bryant and four-time All-Star Gasol â?? coming back from injuries, with something to prove, all getting up there in age.
While expectations of the Lakers' hopes are down, their upside is still tremendous.
"Obviously we have some question marks," D'Antoni said. "With Steve Nash, Pau Gasol and Kobe Bryant, the question marks are one is coming back from injury, one is a little older, one is this, one is that. But you don't find players any better than that. Now let's just try to get 'em healthy, try to keep 'em healthy and then see what happens."

- Lifespan: 12 - 15 years
- Weight: 8 - 20 pounds
Medical Conditions Seen in Maine Coon
Maine Coon Traits
- Lap Cat
- Intelligence
- Ease of Training
- Grooming Requirements
- Shedding
- Good with Children
- Good with Dogs
- Chattiness
Maine Coon History
- A true all-American cat, the Maine Coon originated in New England (principally, Maine) as the United States was forming.
- Many myths surround the origins of the Maine Coon. A popular legend contends that Maine Coons got their start as a result of a botched plan to rescue Marie Antoinette. It is said that Captain Nathaniel Cloud loaded the queen's six Persian and Angora cats on his boat but failed to free her near the end of the French Revolution. He allowed these royal cats to mingle with local cats in the New World, passing on the longhair gene to future generations.
- Although popular as a hardy cat capable of enduring New England winters, it wasn't until the 1950s that the Maine Coon earned championship status by the CFA.
- The official state cat of Maine.
- Coveted for their mousing skills by New England farmers in the 1800s.
Maine Coon Behavior Concerns
- Super mellow and affectionate to people, cats and dogs - an ideal cat for busy households.
- Sweet and smart, the Maine Coon display affection by emitting chirps and trills and head butting.
- Extremely dexterous, the Maine Coon acts like a raccoon by scooping up food and water with its paws and dunking favorite toys in the water bowl.
- Be warned that some Maine Coons like water so much that they may join you in the shower.
- Can be clicker trained to perform basic commands and tricks.
- Can be a bit clumsy and miscalculate heights when jumping on surfaces.
- In cat shows, a Maine Coon can sport a variety of coat colors, but the tail must be kink-free to be considered for awards.
Look of Maine Coons
- Resembles a small bobtail with large frame, barrel chest, its tuft ears, full mane, shaggy weatherproof coat and bushy tail.
- The head is large and square with big, expressive eyes that are wide set.
- Males weigh up to 20 pounds, 8 pounds more than females. Their bodies can stretch up to 40 inches in length.
- Standing head and shoulders over most feline breeds and some toy dog breeds, the Maine Coon is often a popular pick for dog-loving people looking to adopt a cat.
- Comes in a variety of colors and patterns.
- One of the slowest growing cat breeds, the Maine Coon does not reach full maturity until age 4.
Grooming Maine Coon Cats
- Despite its long hair, the Maine Coon's grooming needs are surprisingly minimal. The coat does not tend to develop hair mats as easily as other longhaired breeds, especially the Persian.
- Use a metal comb once a week to groom the coat to keep it tangle-free.
Suggested Nutritional Needs for Maine Coons
- To prevent this breed from becoming overweight, feed high-protein, nutritionally balanced cat food three or four times a day. Do not permit free feeding.
- Check with your veterinarian about the need to add any vitamins, minerals or other supplements to your cat's diet.
Fun Facts of Maine Coons
- Enjoys many nicknames, including "Gentle Giant," "Shags," and "Feline Greeters of the World."
- Prone to polydactylism (extra toes), a congenital condition that causes no adverse health concerns.
- Despite their large size, the Maine Coon tends to chirp rather than deliver boisterous meows.
Did you know?
- A decrease in cat grooming behavior may indicate they are in pain.
- Some cat parasites are transferable to humans.
- Many common pet ailments may be detected early and prevented by visiting your veterinarian twice yearly - saving both time, money, and most importantly, ensuring the best quality of life for your cat.

Braun set for return as Cingrani opposes Peralta
Brewers outfielder expected to start after being activated from DL
Exactly one month since he last took the field for the Brewers, Ryan Braun is expected to make his return to the lineup against the Reds on Tuesday at Miller Park.
Sidelined with an inflamed nerve in his right hand that forced him out of a June 9 game against the Phillies, Braun came off the disabled list on Monday and was available to pinch-hit. He didn't, however, making Tuesday his anticipated comeback.
In 57 games before hitting the DL, Braun batted .304 with nine homers and 36 RBIs. Without their star left fielder, the Brewers went 11-15, including Monday's 4-3 win over the Reds.
Although Braun is set to make his return, he said his hand still is not at 100 percent, and it likely won't be all season. However, he said it has felt good of late, and he doesn't anticipate that playing will worsen the injury.
Milwaukee will need Braun's bat against the Reds and starting pitcher Tony Cingrani, especially considering Braun's roster spot opened up after the Brewers put third baseman and cleanup hitter Aramis Ramirez back on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained left knee. It will be the second DL stint of the season for Ramirez, who is expected back shortly after the All-Star break.
"It's been a challenging year for all of us, obviously, health-wise," Braun said. "But I'm just excited to go back out there, and I'm looking forward to competing again. Ultimately, whoever is out there is expected to contribute to winning. Hopefully we start winning more games."
Braun and the Brewers, who will send Wily Peralta to the mound on Tuesday, enter the second game of a three-game set facing a considerable deficit in the National League Central. The Reds, however, find themselves right near the top. Even with Monday's loss, Cincinnati remained four games out of first place, thanks to an Oakland win over Pittsburgh, which actually put the idle St. Louis in first place by a half-game.
The Reds weathered a recent nine-game winning streak by the Pirates to stay within striking distance, and manger Dusty Baker would like to see his team reel off a few more wins of its own to put the pressure on the division leaders heading into the break.
"You want to cut into it, but a lot of it has to do with you winning and them losing," Baker said. "At worst, you want to maintain where you are and hopefully cut into it."
Reds: Cingrani faces Brewers for second time
Cingrani, who has been filling in for Johnny Cueto during his trips to the DL this season, has some experience to draw upon before facing the Brewers on Tuesday, as he took a no-decision against Milwaukee after four innings of work on May 10 at Great American Ball Park. Cingrani cruised through the first three innings of that game before Jean Segura homered in the fourth, immediately followed by a Braun home run in the next at-bat.
Since then, Cingrani has made three starts and five appearances out of the bullpen. In the three starts, Cingrani was 1-0 with a 3.57 ERA, most recently allowing two runs in 5 2/3 innings against the Giants on July 3.
• The Reds head into Tuesday's game battling injury issues at catcher, as Ryan Hanigan was scratched from Monday's lineup with irritation in his left wrist. X-rays came back negative, but he was replaced by Devin Mesoraco, who missed the two previous games with back spasms.
Brewers: Peralta ready to return to mound
Peralta had his last start cut short by a strained left hamstring, but after two extra days of rest, he doesn't expect that to be an issue when he takes on the Reds on Tuesday.
"I feel pretty good," Peralta said. "I've been running on the field. Did a couple of sprints today, and it feels 100 percent. I don't feel anything right now. It's going to be ready tomorrow."
Peralta was in the midst of one of his best outings of the season on July 2, when he gave up three hits in 5 1/3 scoreless innings. He was then forced out of the game by the injured hamstring, which he later said was feeling tight beginning in the third inning.
It's been an up-and-down year for Peralta, who enters his 19th start with a 5-9 record to go with a 5.27 ERA. He tossed seven innings of shutout ball on June 21 against the Braves, but he's also surrendered five or more runs on four different occasions this season. The 24-year-old right-hander is set to make his second start against the Reds on Tuesday, after allowing three runs in six innings in Cincinnati on May 12.
Worth noting
• The Reds bullpen hasn't allowed a run since June 28 against the Rangers. With Logan Ondrusek and J.J. Hoover keeping the Brewers off the board on Monday, Cincinnati relievers have given up just eight hits and no runs in the last 23 innings.
• The Brewers and Reds are an even 58-58 all-time in Milwaukee.
• Entering Tuesday's game against Cingrani, the Brewers are just 8-22 against lefty starters this season.
• The Brewers' Jonathan Lucroy has homered in three straight games, and his 48 RBIs this season rank second beyond only Buster Posey among all Major League catchers.
