Objective To quantify the impact of fibrinogen-containing cryoprecipitate in addition to the antifibrinolytic tranexamic acid on survival in combat injured.
Design Retrospective observational study comparing the mortality of 4 groups: tranexamic acid only, cryoprecipitate only, tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate, and neither tranexamic acid nor cryoprecipitate. To balance comparisons, propensity scores were developed and added as covariates to logistic regression models predicting mortality.
Setting A Role 3 Combat Surgical Hospital in southern Afghanistan.
Patients A total of 1332 patients were identified from prospectively collected UK and US trauma registries who required 1 U or more of packed red blood cells and composed the following groups: tranexamic acid (n = 148), cryoprecipitate (n = 168), tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (n = 258), and no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (n = 758).
Main Outcome Measure In-hospital mortality.
Results Injury Severity Scores were highest in the cryoprecipitate (mean [SD], 28.3 [15.7]) and tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (mean [SD], 26 [14.9]) groups compared with the tranexamic acid (mean [SD], 23.0 [19.2]) and no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (mean [SD], 21.2 [18.5]) (P < .001) groups. Despite greater Injury Severity Scores and packed red blood cell requirements, mortality was lowest in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (11.6%) and tranexamic acid (18.2%) groups compared with the cryoprecipitate (21.4%) and no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate (23.6%) groups. Tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate were independently associated with a similarly reduced mortality (odds ratio, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.42-0.89; P = .01 and odds ratio, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.40-0.94; P = .02, respectively). The combined tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate effect vs neither in a synergy model had an odds ratio of 0.34 (95% CI, 0.20-0.58; P < .001), reflecting nonsignificant interaction (P = .21).
Conclusions Cryoprecipitate may independently add to the survival benefit of tranexamic acid in the seriously injured requiring transfusion. Additional study is necessary to define the role of fibrinogen in resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock.
Hemorrhage resultant from vascular disruption remains the predominant cause of preventable battlefield mortality1,2 and the leading cause of preventable death in civilian trauma.3- 5 Acute traumatic coagulopathy is associated with a 4-fold increase in mortality and is characterized by both anticoagulation and fibrinolysis.6 Fibrinolysis is a key protective or regulatory mechanism that prevents the extension of formed clot beyond the site of injury7 but may become pathologic following injury and shock.8 When present in the setting of trauma, excessive fibrinolysis (ie, hyperfibrinolysis) is associated with a mortality rate of 48% to 100%.9- 12
Treatment with antifibrinolytic agents has been shown to reduce mortality following trauma in civilian and military settings.13 The prospective CRASH-2 trial demonstrated lower mortality from hemorrhage in civilian patients randomized to receive tranexamic acid (4.9% vs 5.7%; P = .008).14 Subsequently the Military Application of Tranexamic Acid in Trauma Emergency Resuscitation (MATTERs) study showed a 6.5% absolute reduction in mortality in those receiving tranexamic acid following wartime injury.15 An unexpected but important observation from MATTERs was the greater volume of cryoprecipitate received by the tranexamic acid cohort.
Cryoprecipitate is a rich source of fibrinogen, which is the first coagulation factor to be exhausted in major bleeding16 and observational studies have shown a reduction in mortality in trauma patients receiving this factor during massive transfusion.17,18 Traditionally, cryoprecipitate has been administered late in the course of component-based resuscitation after the use of packed red blood cells and plasma. However, recent evidence has increased interest in the early administration of cryoprecipitate and resulted in calls19 for prospective studies on the use of purified fibrinogen.20
Despite the intuitive rationale for replacing depleted fibrinogen while inhibiting fibrinolysis in the setting of trauma, to our knowledge, there have been no studies investigating this therapeutic strategy. The objective of this MATTERs II study was to examine the effect on mortality of cryoprecipitate administered alone and in conjunction with tranexamic acid as part of component-based resuscitation following wartime injury.
This is a retrospective cohort study on prospectively gathered injury, injury management, and outcomes data on combat casualties in the US and UK Joint Theater Trauma registries. Patients were treated between March 1, 2006, and March 31, 2011, at the field hospital at Camp Bastion, Helmand Province, Afghanistan, and received at least 1 U of packed red blood cells following wartime injury. Permission for the study was obtained from the UK Joint Medical Command Research Pillar and the US Army Medical Research and Material Command.
The medical treatment facility at Camp Bastion has the equivalent facilities to a US level I trauma center. Transfusion strategies have evolved over the study period toward a coherent damage control resuscitation strategy summarized in clinical practice guidelines.21,22 This included the prehospital administering of packed red blood cells and plasma in critical casualties on helicopter retrievals in the study's final 24 months. However, the use of tranexamic acid, cryoprecipitate, and recombinant factor VIIa was left to the treating physician's discretion during the initial part of the study.
A unit of cryoprecipitate administered in this study was pooled from 10 donors with a fibrinogen concentration of around 15 g/L.23 This is in contrast to fresh frozen plasma, which has a concentration of around 2.5 g/L.24 Tranexamic acid was administered as a bolus of 1 g intravenous, followed by further doses at the clinician's discretion.
Patients were identified from the UK and US Joint Theater Trauma registries and data included demographic details, injury characteristics, resuscitation requirements, and mortality. Coalition military personnel including US and UK troops were designated as North Atlantic Treaty Organization and all patients of Afghan origin were designated Host Nationals. The study population was divided into 4 cohorts: casualties who received cryoprecipitate but not tranexamic acid, casualties who received tranexamic acid but not cryoprecipitate, those who received both tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate, and patients who received neither tranexamic acid nor cryoprecipitate as part of their resuscitation. Injury pattern and severity were described using Abbreviated Injury Scale scores.25 Severe injury to a body region was defined as an Abbreviated Injury Scale score of 3 or greater. Abbreviated Injury Scale scoring was also used to calculate an Injury Severity Score, ranging from 1 to 75, where a higher score represents a greater burden of injury.26
The primary end point of the study was mortality. For North Atlantic Treaty Organization casualties, who were tracked through all stages of care, mortality was defined as death within 30 days of wounding. For Host National casualties, who were discharged into their indigenous health care system when clinically appropriate, mortality was defined as death prior to discharge from the medical treatment facility (ie, in-hospital mortality).
Parameters were compared across the 4 treatment cohorts by analysis of variance for continuous measures and logistic regression for proportions. A pair of propensity scores that contributed to selection for tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate treatments were developed using previously described methods.27,28 The first score was developed without regard to the number of missing values of variables related to the treatment choice. The second score included only variables with less than 30 missing values. The C statistic was used as a measure of how well either score discriminated between groups (closer to 1.00 indicates better discrimination). The score with the highest C statistic was selected to alleviate confounders estimating the association of each treatment with mortality.
When developing the scores, in recognition of temporal changes in transfusion practice, admission date was specifically included in the regression modeling. Furthermore, particular attention was paid to balancing for noncryoprecipitate blood components and when there were significant differences, further scores were developed to ensure that any important interactions were recognized.
The selected propensity scores were then used as adjustments in nonordinal polytomous logistic regression for proportions and analysis of covariance for continuous measures as an aid to assess the balance between groups. The selected propensity scores were also added as covariates to logistic regression models predicting mortality with treatments as predictors to identify the isolated contribution of tranexamic acid, cryoprecipitate, and the combination of tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate to mortality. Analyses were performed using SAS version 9.2 (SAS Institute Inc).
Over the 5-year period, 1332 patients required at least 1 U of red blood cell concentrate as part of their resuscitation following combat injury. The baseline characteristics of the 4 cohorts are shown in Table 1. As part of resuscitation, 11.1% (n = 148) of the cohort received tranexamic acid only, 12.6% (n = 168) received cryoprecipitate only, 19.4% (n = 258) received both tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate, and 56.9% (n = 758) received neither treatment.
The C statistics for the propensity scores were as follows: tranexamic acid with missing data: C = 0.873; tranexamic acid all data: C = 0.850; cryoprecipitate with missing data: C = 0.944; and cryoprecipitate all data: C = 0.945. Because missing data were not significantly associated with treatment choice, we concluded it reasonable to assume that excluding cases with missing data would not introduce bias. Thus, the propensity scores were developed using subjects with no missing data, which meant excluding 412 patients with missing physiological parameters and 26 patients with missing Injury Severity Scores.
The following variables were found to be significant in developing propensity scores for the tranexamic acid group: admission date, nation status, systolic blood pressure, Glasgow Coma Scale score, lower extremity injury, and prehospital blood, fresh frozen plasma, packed red blood cell, and platelet administration. The following were significant when developing the cryoprecipitate group score: Injury Severity Score, lower extremity injury, recombinant factor VIIa use, and fresh frozen plasma and platelet administration.
Unadjusted univariate comparison revealed similar distributions of age and sex across the 4 study groups. However, a greater proportion of Host National patients received either tranexamic acid in isolation or neither treatment. Additionally, the prehospital use of blood products by a physician-led retrieval team was also different among groups. Specifically, patients in the no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group were the least likely to receive these prehospital interventions. Furthermore, patients in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group were more likely to have been involved in an explosive injury than patients receiving neither therapy. There were also significant differences in admission physiology because patients in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group had a lower level of consciousness and were more hypotensive. The least physiologically disturbed group was the no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group. Postadjustment, all parameters became statistically similar (P > .05) except for the patients with a reduced consciousness level (Table 1).
Preadjustment, the Injury Severity Scores of the 4 groups varied significantly (Table 2). The most severely injured patients were observed to be in the cryoprecipitate group, with decreasing injury severity in the cryoprecipitate/tranexamic acid, tranexamic acid, and no cryoprecipitate/tranexamic acid groups, respectively. The main difference in injury pattern was due to a relatively small number of severe head injuries, but a large number of severe extremity wounds, in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group. The rate of severe torso wounding was similar across all 4 groups. Differences in the proportions of casualties in each Injury Severity Score band remained statistically significant after propensity adjustment (P = .04), but there were no differences in the mean Injury Severity Score, or the proportion of severe injuries in each body region, across the 4 cohorts (Table 2).
Before adjustment, patients in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group required more than 4-fold the number of units of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets than patients in the no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group (Table 3). There was no difference in the number of units of cryoprecipitate administered to the cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate groups (2.1 and 2.3 U, respectively; P = .15). However, there was a greater amount of tranexamic acid administered to patients in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group than to patients in the tranexamic acid group (mean, 2.4 and 1.9 g, respectively; P < .001) (Table 3). Recombinant factor VIIa was administered most frequently in the cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate groups and used less frequently in the tranexamic acid and no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group (P < .001). Propensity scoring was able to adjust for differences in the number of units of red blood cell concentrate and plasma transfused and the dose of tranexamic acid administered, but not the number of units of platelets transfused or the amount of recombinant factor VIIa administered (Table 3).
The mean (SD) follow-up of the cohort was 13.0 (12.7) days. Mortality was highest in the no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group (23.6%) and lowest in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group (11.6%) (P = .001) (Figure). This difference persisted after propensity adjustment (Table 1). The benefits of tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate were similar; both associated with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.61 and 95% CIs of 0.42 to 0.89 and 0.40 to 0.94, respectively (Table 4). The effect of tranexamic acid was not found to interact with cryoprecipitate, as demonstrated by a synergy model (P = .21). A further model was also developed to adjust for platelet administration: the ORs (95% CI) of tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate were 0.62 (0.43-0.90) and 0.59 (0.39-0.91), respectively.

The effect of tranexamic acid and cryoprecipitate in combination was associated with an OR (95% CI) of 0.34 (0.20-0.58) (P < .001). This did not differ markedly from the OR estimated from the independent additive model (0.61 × 0.61 = 0.37). This was also the case when adjusting for platelets (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.20-0.58; P < .001).
To our knowledge, this study is the first to report the effect on mortality of cryoprecipitate alone and in combination with tranexamic acid as part of a blood component–based resuscitation in trauma. Despite a more severe constellation of injuries and greater resuscitation requirements, patients who received cryoprecipitate and/or tranexamic acid had improved survival compared with those who received neither. The mortality benefit with cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid was additive and present after propensity adjustment to optimize the comparability of groups. Findings from this investigation suggest that fibrinogen replacement may be as important as the inhibition of fibrinolysis in improving survival following wartime injury.
The current investigation confirms and extends the findings from the CRASH-2 trial14 and the MATTERs study15 that tranexamic acid is beneficial in trauma. The present analysis was prompted by the finding in the MATTERs study that those in the tranexamic acid cohort also received a greater volume of cryoprecipitate. By using a longer study period and a greater number of patients than the MATTERs study, a more comprehensive analysis of the subgroups receiving cryoprecipitate alone and in combination with tranexamic acid was possible.
Findings from this investigation substantiate work reported by Stinger et al,18 who examined the effect of exogenous fibrinogen in blood products administered to combat casualties between 2004 and 2005. In that report, Stinger et al examined the fibrinogen to packed red blood cell ratio in 252 casualties who received massive transfusion and identified a 50% relative reduction in mortality in those receiving a high compared with a low ratio. From that study, Stinger et al recommended administration of 250 mg of fibrinogen or one 15-mL unit of cryoprecipitate per unit of packed red blood cells (fibrinogen to packed red blood cell ratio > 0.2 g) during resuscitation from severe trauma. However, the precise dose of fibrinogen in fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate is variable and difficult to accurately assess in retrospective studies.29 However, using their method, the crude fibrinogen to red blood cell ratios of the groups in the current study were tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate, 0.7 g; cryoprecipitate, 0.66 g; tranexamic acid, 0.39 g; and no tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate, 0.29 g.
Civilian investigators have also identified the importance of fibrinogen metabolism in severely injured patients noting that fibrinogen is the first to be exhausted in trauma coagulopathy.16 Excess fibrinolysis identified using thromboelastography has been noted to be associated with mortality rates between 48% and 100%.9- 12 Schöchl et al19 reported on severely injured patients who received fibrinogen concentrate based on thromboelastography findings and reported a 50% reduction in actual, compared with expected, mortality using Trauma Related Injury Severity Score methods. In aggregate, these findings have prompted investigators to advocate for earlier administration of fibrinogen as part of resuscitation following severe trauma and resulted in at least 1 prospective, randomized trial of the prehospital use of fibrinogen concentrate.30
Findings from these studies point to a mechanistic process that includes maintenance of a fibrinogen threshold in the acute setting following trauma and hemorrhage. One theory that addresses the dynamic nature of fibrinogen metabolism in this scenario relates to the effect of relative hypoxia on the vascular endothelium in the setting of hemorrhagic shock. Brohi et al8 and others have postulated that reduced oxygen-carrying capacity in the setting of shock enhances endothelial expression of thrombomodulin, which results in pathological activation of protein C, an endogenous anticoagulant.31 In addition to inhibiting factors V and VIII, activated protein C leads to inhibition and degradation of the principle inhibitor of tissue plasminogen activator, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.32,33 In this setting, increased plasminogen activity promotes fibrinolysis and fibrin depletion. The results of the current study extend the work of these investigators,8 suggesting that both early inhibition of fibrinolysis as well as repletion of fibrinogen stores may have an additive effect at reducing mortality.
The potential mortality benefit of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid in the setting of trauma may not be solely related to achieving hemostasis acutely following injury. This is an important consideration because a portion of the survival benefit of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid is observed in the days and weeks following injury and resuscitation (Figure). In this context, it is plausible that the interaction and cross-talk between the coagulation and inflammatory pathways plays a role in improving survival.34
Specifically, tranexamic acid has a known anti-inflammatory effect achieved in part through the reduction of circulating plasmin levels.35 This effect has been reported extensively in the setting of cardiac surgery where tranexamic acid has been shown to be associated with decreased circulating markers of inflammation, less inotropic support, and fewer ventilatory days.36,37 These findings have led to speculation that tranexamic acid–related survival may be due to an attenuated inflammatory response reducing organ failure and sepsis.
In recent and compelling work, Cohen and colleagues30 have shown that activated protein C plays a central role in delayed organ dysfunction and death following severe trauma. Findings from the current study point to the possibility that stabilization of fibrinogen with cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid early after injury plays a role in mitigating this adverse response days and weeks after injury. In this context, cryoprecipitate is a complex preparation containing more than fibrinogen alone including some components, such as fibrinonectin and platelet microparticles, that have direct immunomodulatory effects.29
The propensity scoring method used in this study has been able to be adjusted for most known variables and thus has enabled the controlled comparison of relatively heterogeneous subgroups. Specifically, propensity scoring was able to control for the majority of important variables such as injury severity and the administration of other fibrinogen-containing blood products. However, there are a number of important limitations that need to be recognized, specifically the areas of prehospital data and the trends in institutional practice.
This study reports limited prehospital data but is able to identify patients retrieved by a physician-led team that was able to undertake a greater array of interventions including intubation and blood product administration. While physician-led retrieval was not identified as a significant parameter in the regression model per se, it is possible that unquantified interventions have subtle interaction that cannot be completely controlled. For example, significantly more patients in the tranexamic acid/cryoprecipitate group had a Glasgow Coma Scale score less than 8; it is conceivable that some patients underwent prehospital intubation, artificially reducing their consciousness level. In the case of prehospital blood use, a significant interaction was identified (P < .001) and controlled for postadjustment (P = .88).
A further limitation relates to the temporal trend in military transfusion practice and institutional experience that had undoubtedly evolved over the study period. Date of admission was found to be a significant parameter within the regression analysis and was controlled for within the propensity scores. This is not surprising because the administration of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid was only protocolized in the last 18 months of the study. Although date of admission has been controlled for, there may be other unrecognized temporal relationships that remain unadjusted, influencing mortality. However, it was this variation in practice that made this study possible by permitting the analysis of subgroups.
A further assumption of this study is that the potential mortality benefit observed with cryoprecipitate relates strictly to fibrinogen. Although comprising mostly factor I, cryoprecipitate also contains varying amounts of von Willebrand factor and factor VIII, either of which may have influenced the observed mortality benefit.29 Finally, without information pertaining to inflammatory markers, organ dysfunction, or cause of death, this study is not able to draw a definite link between fibrinogen metabolism and inflammation. Despite these limitations, this study provides new data showing a survival benefit with the use of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid in the setting of trauma and provides a foundation for detailed study of these compounds including prospective trials of fibrinogen concentrate.
In conclusion, this study demonstrates that the administration of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid may improve the survival in the seriously injured requiring transfusion. The effect of cryoprecipitate appears to be additive to that of tranexamic acid, suggesting that repletion of fibrinogen may be as important as preventing its degradation in this setting. Additional study is necessary to define the role of fibrinogen in resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock.

The Magic and Mystique of Engine Servicing Facilities If there is a land where dragons live, it lies before you. Ahead, dozens of the black monsters rest after battle. The sulfur smells of coal smoke, hot iron and oil mix in the hazy morning air.
Not long ago, places like Peach Creek, Cheyenne, Roanoke, Portland, Altoona and Spencer shook with the passage of these giants. Whether it was massive articulateds, Queens of the high-speed passenger fleet, or lowly yard goats, steam locos of every size were refueled, repaired and made ready for their next assignment.
And now, the glory days are back, in an all-new collection of seven HO Scale Cornerstone Series(R) kits from Walthers. Bigger Is Better Finally, you can model the support structures that your biggest and best engines deserve quickly, affordably and easily with Walthers kits.
Typical American designs, they'll handle any loco from 0-4-0 to 4-8-8-4 and each fits in a space that makes them practical for any layout.
Easy to Add or Expand Whether modernizing your existing terminal or building a new one, these kits are the perfect starting point.
They're easily mixed and matched with other structures to capture the look of newer facilities built to speed operations.
A Central Theme for Limited Space Like the feel of big-time railroading but think you don't have room? Think again!
Now you can easily design and build a realistic terminal with plenty of action in a small area. It's a perfect way to display and operate your favorite locos too. And, a facility like this provides nonstop work for one or two operators.
Adaptable to Many Eras Don't model the steam-era? Don't worry, you CAN use these structures on your layout!
Facilities like these appeared in the 1920s and some are still in use today. A Complete Series of Kits This complete series of Cornerstone Series kits brings you everything you need to model ALL of the facilities you'd find in a typical engine service terminal.
* Authentic American Prototype
* Holds Engines up to 125 Scale Feet Long
* Includes Stall for Bigger Engines up to 145 Scale Feet Long
* Modular Design-Easily Expanded to a Full Circle
* Compact 10-Degree Stall Spacing
* Fine Window Details
* Floor Inspection Pits
* Decal Signs Included
Though engines started getting bigger early in the 20th century, no one could foresee the monsters that were in regular service by the 1940s. These locos required equally large servicing areas, so some roads simply added and extended a few roundhouse stalls to handle them. This conversion kit adds three matching stalls to the Modern Roundhouse (933-2900, sold separately). With additional kits, you can expand the basic building to any size your railroad requires. Engines up to 125' fit easily inside, and parts to build a single 145' long stall are included - big enough to hold a Big Boy.
Measures 17-3/4 (20-1/8 with extended stall) x 16 x 5-1/2" 44.3 (50.3) x 40 x 13.7cm.
Plastic Kit Dimensions: 17-3/4 (20-1/8 with extended stall) x 16 x 5-1/2" 44.3 (50.3) x 40 x 13.7cm

This is a nice enough park with nice trees and clean facilities. The owners are very nice. The only downside is freeway noise, but we are good sleepers so it didn't keep us awake. We would stay here again if passing through. Not a destination park. - johnanann
Good for an overnight stay. Close to I-70 with easy on & off. Sites close together but workable with a big rig for most of them. Directions to sites a bit confusing & signs also not accurate. - John & Bobbie
Nice park, small but overall it was okay. Make sure to ask for shade, not a lot of shady areas. Pet friendly. I would stay here again.. Park has recently gone to a private park/RPI-Coast2Coast. - tiggeriffic

This is a gem. Road in from hwy 50 is paved but a bit rough in spots. Internal roads and sites are paved and well kept. Lots of trees as the name implies. Campground is nestled up to the bottom of a red rock cliff. Small stream running through. Not many large sites but a good mix and all have pretty good privacy. One pull through. Pit toilets were a bit smelly but clean. Price reflects senior pass rate. - oldmac
Forest Service CG that is a great little gem. No hookups, but well worth boon docking for. Easy access from Hwy 50, and the sound of the creek was very relaxing. The creek runs though the CG with mostly well shaded sites. A few sites overlook the valley and have morning sun. Kids had a blast and this was an over nighter for us, but we will return for a longer stay. Toilets were vault, but OK and useable. - steammaker

This is the worst park we have ever stayed in over many years of rving. The sites were extremely narrow and difficult to enter. Tree limbs hung down into sites, power boxes hanging loose, notes saying sewer does not work. No maintenance of weeds and bushes etc. RV sites right next to auto repair shop. The staff work in gas station convenience store adjoining the park. They know little or nothing about the rv park. We saw most people go back to the store for their money back and leave. When we arrived it was empty and we were able to choose the only site with acceptable power and after many attempts we were able to squeeze in the site. One plus for the Park is that the wifi worked very well. Laundry room and restrooms were grossly unacceptable. We did not feel secure and one of us always stayed with the rv. We would never stay here again and will always warn others to stay away. We paid a lower fee as they welcomed Coast to Coast members as a Good Neighbor Park. We thought we were overcharged. - twosome

In April I paid booking fee and valuation fee of £430 and after the valuation I was told the property was worth £3000 less than the asking price which was very inaccurate. I could have paid this extra amount out of my own money but Skipton would not allow me this option and decided that the loan I was asking for should be reduced by £10000 based on the valuation report and not due to my income. It took them 5 weeks to make this decision. I wrote to Skipton and complained in May and finally… Read Full Review

In trying to re-mortgage our flat on a buy-to-let, this lender asked for every piece of information they could possibly think of, took months processing it, then sent a valuer round who proceeded to under-value the property by £10K meaning the equity that could be taken out of the property was less then we needed. They asked for comparables of other properties sold at the higher price and when we sent through two, they still didn't increase the value. We've waited 10 weeks and now have to go… Read Full Review

Europe's largest climate change experiment launched
Scientists at the University of Liverpool have launched a large scale experiment to monitor the impact of climate change on freshwater systems
Dr Heidrun Feuchtmayr and a team from the School of Biological Sciences are conducting a two year project in collaboration with scientists from Belgium, Germany, Norway, Iceland and Denmark, to assess whether a predicted rise in climate temperature for the UK and parts of Europe will increase the toxicity of algae in the country's lakes and ponds.The project � the largest climate change experiment in Europe to date - is based at Ness Botanic Gardens and will involve testing a type of algae in 48 heated water tanks.
Scientists will examine whether a rise in climate temperature will increase the growth of blue-green algae - known as cyanobacteria - many species of which are toxic and can affect fish, snails and other lake dwellers. It has also been known to cause irritation of the skin, headaches and sickness in humans and animals.
Dr Heidrun Feuchtmayr said: "There is limited knowledge about the impact of global climate change on freshwater systems. Many lakes in Europe have suffered problems with blue-green algae through the introduction of fertilisers, discharges from farms and organic chemicals such as washing powder into the water. We now need to look at how these problems may be exacerbated with an increase in temperature."
Pets or livestock drinking toxic lake water can suffer skin irritation and severe disorders involving the circulatory, nervous and digestive systems. In extreme cases, the effects can prove fatal. Humans are also affected by blue-green algae. Military training in lakes containing toxic algae has induced sickness in soldiers, such as vomiting, abdominal pain and sore throats.
Dr Feuchtmayr added: "Climate temperature is predicted to rise by 3 to 5 �C in the UK and parts of Europe in the next half century. We will investigate if blue-green algae blooms are more likely to form in heated water tanks and if the toxicity will increase with higher temperatures. We will also assess changes to aquatic communities and food webs."
Notes to editors 1. Ness Gardens is open daily from 9.30am � 4.00pm
2. A new �2 million Visitor Centre will open at Ness Gardens next year featuring a central courtyard area with reception, indoor cafe with outside garden area, shop, lecture theatre, conservatory and exhibition room.
3. The University of Liverpool is one of the UK's leading research institutions. It attracts collaborative and contract research commissions from a wide range of national and international organisations valued at more than �90 million annually.

All this drama will end soon. At a certain price point, all the negativity will be priced. I am tired of reading that competitor did this or that, is up xx% or down yy%. The story is always repeating itself.
Android will fade because of lacking innovation. Like any OS. you don't change an OS in computer science. You improve it only. Google will write off Motorola acquisition. Microsoft will spend billions for the Xbox 720. HTC, Nokia, RIM will fight to be profitable, etc. ... In front of that, is Apple seriously in trouble? Lets talk after the earnings, not before. Because I seriously doubt people who say Apple is in trouble have tangible data. |

People said the same thing back in the Beige Apple PPC Computer days....
Maybe they're slashing iPhone 5 Part orders as they are getting ready for the iPhone 5S and iPhone 6... Weak demand are due to the rumors about a new iPhone plus all the FREE Android/Windows Phones around now with "more/better features" (whatever that means - one of those phones was so large, I couldn't hold it or use it with one hand).

Sacasm ignore mode on - respond with more sarcasm
Now on hardware, what innovations do you expect from Samsung in future? The world's fist 8 core ARM chipset for phones? (android needz all that powah cuz is suxx lulz)Flexible OLED displays? The raw hardware upgrades between the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy S III may not have been mind blowing but the software and hardware improvements as a whole on the two phones makes them worlds apart feature wise. You are more than welcome to disagree but to say "Samsung did just the same Apple did." when it's readily apparant Samsung added some rather significant features to the SIII vs the SII thanks to the improved software and hardware combined is a bit of a mis-step I feel. Apologies if you get a million quote notifications from the multi-quotes I've done. ---------- Wait till he learns about the 20 shot burst mode. It's like HDR mode....

Whatever drove Apple stock prices down, a rumour or a true information, doesn't matter because stock price reflects future expectations rather than current or past achievements. And the price decrease might be triggered by a false rumour but is sustained by a majority of other factors and reality.
Lets see. People tend to forget that just in January 2009, after introduction of iPhone 3Gs, Apple stock was as low as less then 80 dollars. With iPhone 4S and iPad2, stock was still around 325 dollars. Only introduction of iPad 3 moved the stock higher than 500 dollars and only with introduction of iPhone 5 reached 700 dollars. [IMG][/IMG] The peak of Apple price in September reaching 700 was really a peak, as I think. Between 2010 and 2012, Apple became a leading supplier of smartphone first on ATT, then on Verizon and then Sprint. There is simply not much left to expand US carriers anymore, except T-mobile, whose future is not that certain. In terms of smartphones, one can see that highest growth was brought by 3GS from 78$ to more than 200 $. iPhone4 even combined with iPad increased the stock price only from 200 to 300 dollars. iPad 2 and 4S moved the price from 300 to almost 600 dollars. iPad 3 actually drove stock price down; so is iPhone 5's introduction back to 500. The downward movement of Apple stock happened AFTER every introduction of new models and slumps continued for at least 2 months, or even for half a year like in 2011, despite iPhone CDMA. The upward movement of Apple stock always happened BEFORE introduction of new models and rise continued for 3 months in general before the introduction. The largest spike in Apple prices in 2012 happened TWICE because of introduction of 2 new products as iPad 3 retina and iPhone 5; stock now is 489 dollars which similar to price of stock in February 2012. Bottom line: we are now two months AFTER introduction of iPad4/iPad mini and iPhone 5. This slump may continue until February/March. If the Wall Street is right, it means investor are in slump period for Apple and they don't believe that Apple will introduce anything new until May/June because the rise hasn't started. If only Apple could wait until February to introduce iPad 4, then the stock price wouldn't fall as now and would be actually in rise period. However, things are done, all new models are introduced and there is no exciting mythical new things to come at least until May/June according to investors. I would expect the Apple price to stabilize around 500 and start rising after February maybe in March in anticipation for June announcements (whatever it is, 5S or not). As one can see, Summer announcement are very strong stock price generators as compared to much weaker January announcements which leave stock stagnating or even falling for some time. Since it is rumored that second half of 2013 may see newer iPhones, iPad 5 and cheap iPhones, stock rebound will come in March or 3 months before June. Based on previous experience, every new iPhone/iPad models drives Apple stock up by approximately 100-200 dollars, 2012 being abnormally high for whatever reasons, maybe on strength of iPad3 retina. So, March-June rise on average must reach around 600 dollars. This is sustained level of stock price as I believe because it is consistent with all previous stock price fluctuations. So one can judge 200 dollar price increase in 2012 as being overshooting of long term sustained price. I believe that by June appl will be around 600 dollars.

I'm also surprised (not really) to not see any mention of the fact that Verizon introduced the iPhone 4 in Feb 2011. Those 2 year contracts expire in the next month. The 2 big questions are then: 1) How many of them will upgrade? and 2) How many of them will stick with Apple? To me this is the big silver lining for the Jan-Mar quarter. That and a T-mobile introduction.

Man, if I had the money, I would buy all the stock I could handle.
I believe that the introduction of the iPad Mini, coupled with the iPhone 5 will yield huge numbers for Apple. We'll have to wait and see if this is the case. Regardless, they say buy stock on the products you use, and unless they change the way they operate, I'll never stop using Apple: For me, it is about "feel". There are 2 main features that Android has that I want: multiple user accounts and a bigger (at least 4.5) screen. However, I am spoiled by Apple's smoothness. Everything is just.so.smooth! From their trackpads to the iPhone screens, I just cannot give it up. I've yet to use an Android phone or non-Apple laptop that compares. I just like their "feel". This is very subjective; I know. Add to that superior security to that of its competitors, coupled with an already well-established ecosystem, and I'm stuck. This Kool-Aid is delicious! So, all this talk about Apple's doom and stock-price downward spiral is irrelevant to me (but entertaining ). I'll continue to buy Apple, 'cause I've yet to see anything better (for me), either here now or down the pike. And if I could, I'd buy A LOT of stock.
Love GOD more than anything, and your neighbor as you love you. Do this, and life will be good! |
