Patient Comments: Blood In Semen - CausePatient Comments: Blood In Semen - Symptoms Find a local Urologist in your town Blood in semen facts Blood in the semen is known as hematospermia. Prostate biopsy is the most common cause of blood in the semen. Blood in the semen can be caused by tumors, infections, anatomical abnormalities, stones, or inflammation in many sites throughout the genitourinary system. Usually blood in the semen is benign and resolves on its own. Treatment, if indicated, depends upon the underlying cause. What is blood in the semen? The presence of blood in the semen (ejaculate) is also called hematospermia. Hematospermia is not always noticed; therefore, it is difficult to make estimates of its incidence.What are the causes of blood in the semen? Reader Stories Read 35 Stories Share Your Story Blood in semen can be caused by many conditions affecting the male genitourinary system. Areas affected may include the bladder, urethra, the testicles, the tubes that distribute semen from the testicles (known as the seminal vesicles), the epididymis (a segment of the spermatic ducts that serves to store, mature, and transport sperm), and the prostate gland. Blood in the semen is most commonly a result of a prostate gland biopsy. A majority of men who undergo a prostate biopsy may have some blood in their semen that persists for three to four weeks. Likewise, vasectomy can lead to bloody semen for about one week after the procedure. In men with hematospermia who have not had a recent prostate biopsy or vasectomy, a number of benign and malignant conditions of the male genital system may be the cause. In many situations, no definitive cause is found. The following conditions have been reported in association with hematospermia: Benign or malignant tumors of the prostate, bladder, testes, or seminal vesicles Infections including, but not limited to, chlamydia, herpes, cytomegalovirus, and trichomoniasis Inflammation of the prostate (prostatitis), epididymis (epididymitis), or urethra (urethritis) Calculi (stones similar to kidney stones) in the seminal vesicles or prostate Polyps in the urethra Ejaculation duct obstructions Metastatic cancers (that have spread from other sites in the body) located in the genitourinary system Cysts, hemorrhage, or other abnormalities in the seminal vesicles Medically Reviewed by a Doctor on 7/10/2014Next: What are the symptoms of blood in the semen?1 2 3 4 Next Blood In Semen Index Find a Local Doctor Patient Comments Viewers share their comments Blood In Semen - Cause Question: What was the underlying cause of blood in your semen?

Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. owns and manages energy transportation and storage assets in North America. It operates in five segments: Products Pipelines, Natural Gas Pipelines, CO2, Terminals, and Trans Mountain.
At the same time the company has managed to deliver an impressive 21.30 % average annual increase in its net income from 1998 to 2007.
The ROE increased from a low of 7% in 1998 to a high of 24 % in 2006, before decreasing to 13 % in 2007.
If we invested $100,000 in KMP on December 31, 1997 we would have bought 5903 shares (adjusted for a 2:1 split in August 2001). Your first quarterly check would have been $1658.75 in January 1998. If you kept reinvesting the dividends though instead of spending them, your quarterly payment would have risen to $9920.24 by October 2007. For a period of 10 years, your quarterly dividend has increased by 213 %. If you reinvested it though, your quarterly dividend would have increased by 498%.
The dividend payout has remained above 100% for the majority of our study period. When put into the perspective of the past 10 year's average though, it looks pretty normal for the company. A lower payout is always a plus, since it leaves room for consistent dividend growth minimizing the impact of short-term fluctuations in earnings.

The C7 unit including parking and locker is $835 p/sfoot. INSANE but if you had it and had the 10 days...keep or give it up?
I got a C4...still wondering if there is enough exposure above the 7th floor as there are units on either side of the balcony...and could those heritage buildings or the ST Lawrence Centre become a building one day? I'd loose the killer view/exposure!
i also think that the D8 on the 12 th with the huge northern exposure of terrace is the other best unit with 50 feet of pure NORTHERN views...everyroom has a view! INSANE! Anyone know how much that went for???
As noted in our previous email to Berczy registrants, preview sales of this spectacular new development began by appointment this past Saturday, May 15. The response was overwhelming with preview appointments fully subscribed to early registrants. Sales were brisk and we are extremely pleased by the immediate success of this unique development!
In preparation for our upcoming Grand Opening on Saturday, May 29, The Berczy Sales Centre is temporarily closed. We will be contacting you after the long weekend with details regarding our next sales event. In the mean time, we encourage you to visit The Berczy Preview Website at www.TheBerczy.com/preview for a full complement of floor plans and detailed information.
We look forward to providing you with more information next week.

Team Berczy
I am starting this thread for Berczy Purchasers to discuss issues and information sharing.
Question 1: Has anyone asked Concert as to where the gas and hose bibs are located "as per plan" on the terraces?
If you are just like me and looking for a smaller unit, 1 BED or 1 BED + DEN, then we are out of luck for the moment.
Just got confirmation (Berczy) that the smaller units are sold out with a wait list for specific units if they come back.
So, I guess we'll have to see what happens within the 10 day timeframe.
Great idea for a thread SpadinaBus!
I don't have a terrace so I'm not sure where the gas and hose bibs are...did you add anything to the contract or amend anything?
I was wondering about capping closing costs...but it seems as if it's already capped at $5000 in the contract. Is this a reasonable amount?
This is my first condo purchase so I'm not too sure what else I need to do...is there anything else that you would speak to the developer about? It seems as if all of the units are already upgraded to the max...what have others amended?
Oh and congrats on your purchase!
I have not amended yet but probably will with respect to the gas and water bibs as it is not clear.
If it is your first condo purchase, you should consult with a condo lawyer to get the POSA reviewed. Never hurts.
$5000 is reasonable. A 1 bed or less will most likely come to around $4000 or so. You're more likely to benefit from a cap with a 2 bed+
Also, you'll want to clear the air on the HST... but as SBus mentioned... grab a lawyer.
This is my first purchase as well. I purchased without an agent but am having the contract thoroughly vetted by a real estate lawyer.
Thanks for the replies...anyone know a good real estate lawyer that is around the downtown area or TTC accessible? PM me please!
I was thinking that since everyone got the same contract that it would have just been general things that wouldn't need amending but I guess it doesn't hurt to get it read over.
I can't wait until we start seeing some construction going on! I heard that demolition of 6 Church should start sometime in October and the sales office to follow in November! So excited!
Congrats everyone!

The Fire This Time
As soon as we in the U.S. heard about the terrible fire in the Carmel, we knew our Israeli colleagues would be working with the affected communities, engaging with the authorities and thinking long-term about both the problems and solutions presented by the emergency. Our Haifa office, which served such a key role during and after the second Lebanon War, has particularly deep and extensive partnerships in the community, and it is our on-the-ground presence, our credibility and communication with the many grassroots organizations we support that continues to make a difference.
Unlike many American Jewish organizations, we did not email you immediately to ask for special support. We do have a Fire Response Fund, and it will be disbursed in a thoughtful way, ensuring that compensation is distributed fairly, that knowledgeable environmentalists participate in repairing the Carmel forest, and that our grantees and partners play the appropriate roles in representing their communities in the aftermath. And we are especially grateful to our friends at American Jewish World Service and J Street, who did contact their constituents to ask that fire-related contributions be directed to us, with great success.
But if you are a supporter of the New Israel Fund, you know that our ongoing work is the most important way to address Israel's emergencies. Because we build the institutions, the organizations and the networks through which ordinary people make Israel a better place, a place that addresses the needs and aspirations of all its citizens. Because our role is that of a powerful engine for democratic change, the nexus where policy and progressive values come together with a vision originated by Israel's founders. Because that vision is substantiated by thousands of Israelis and Jews around the world who work together in common purpose.
Please, as 2010 comes to an end, enable us to continue and strengthen our ability to make change happen. You have heard about the challenges facing Israeli democracy and civil society, that the human rights community has never been more vilified, and that the freedoms that are the foundation of a liberal democracy are fragile there. And while this is true, and while we expect to become even stronger advocates for our values and programs, we also know that Israel is a miraculous place, a place that can regenerate just as the Carmel forest eventually will. It is in Israel's DNA to engender miracles, and with that thought, we wish you a happy Hanukah and thanks for your friendship and support.

|March of Dimes Honors Two ACH Neonatologists
At the December 1st Pinellas Signature Chefs Auction/Dinner, the Tampa Bay Divison of the March of Dimes honored ACH neonatologists Tony Napolitano, M.D., and Carine Stromquist, M.D., for their commitment to saving the lives of children. The parents of Madeline Reese Nobles, the 2011 Ambassador Child for Tampa Bay March of Dimes, nominated both physicians for this award. Maddie was admitted to the All Children's NICU in 2010 for persistent pulmonary hypertension, and there were many difficult moments when her care team and her family feared she would not pull through.
Erin Robles, Maddie's mom, described the compassionate care exemplified by these two physicians. Here are excerpts from her remarks:
"I truly believe that Dr. Stromquist's ability to assess Maddie's condition and make quick and appropriate decisions about the best course of care is a large part of why Maddie is neurologically intact today. Over those many weeks that we spent in the NICU, Dr. Stromquist was a frequent presence: rounding with residents, coming by to check on Maddie, coordinating and holding interdisciplinary team meetings, which she made sure we were part of. But as wonderful as Dr. Stromquist was for us, I know that Maddie was not her only patient....and I know that she has applied the same level of intelligence, professionalism, and caring to each child whose life she has impacted."
"I first met Dr. Napolitano on February 28, 2008 when my daughter, Delia, was born. Delia was also born with birth defects and did not survive beyond a few hours. In the critical time before her death, he treated my family with the sensible compassion for which he is so well known. And Dr. Napolitano again came into my family's life during Maddie's hospital story, as an Attending who cared for her during her eight-week hospitalization. Dr. Napolitano was always kind, always honest, and always skillful. He was a calming presence on the unit and it was clear to us that he had the utmost respect of the residents, nurses and other practitioners."
In accepting these awards, Dr. Stromquist and Dr. Napolitano said that saving Maddie was a team effort and thanked all the members of the NICU team-clinical, administrative and support staff-for their efforts. They also noted that several of the lifesaving treatments Maddie received while in the NICU, including nitric oxide therapy and lung surfactant, are available because of early research support from the March of Dimes.

Though layoffs announced for Cone Health on Wednesday won't impact Alamance Regional Medical Center, Burlington's hospital is looking at a $12 million funding gap going into next year.
The shrinking revenue is due to the Affordable Care Act reforms and federal sequestration cuts. The $10- to $12 million-figure doesn't include likely cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, a $2.5 million sales tax exemption and cuts from other legislative reforms that would impact ARMC hospital's operating budget, Preston Hammock, ARMC's president and chief operating officer, said Thursday.
Cone Health President and CEO Terry Akin announced plans Wednesday to lay off about 150 employees over the next three months to help trim $30 million from its budget. Those cuts will be made at all levels, Akin said, but don't include positions at ARMC. The Cone Health system's overall budget, including ARMC, is $1.7 billion.
ARMC's annual operating budget is about $245 million, Hammock said. The projected $12 million in cuts represents about 5 percent of its annual budget. The hospital doesn't have specific plans to cut employees but layoffs are a possibility, Hammock said.
"Staff cuts are always a last resort. I don't have a specific plan (to cut staff) at the moment," Hammock said. "There are many levers we hope we can pull before" layoffs occur.
Employee salaries and benefits make up more than half of the $245 million in annual expenses, he said.
The 2014 budget would go into effect Oct. 1. It needs to be formulated and approved by the end of July, Hammock said.
To build the budget, ARMC officials factor in expected patient volumes, the use of services and cost increases among other moving targets.
To make up for impending losses, ARMC has identified some cost-cutting measures in its service contracts and will rely on the reduced costs of doing business as part of the Cone Health system. The hospital already changed some of its operations to make up for funding lost when the sequestration went into effect in April, Hammock said.
"This year, we're well behind budget. But we are in the black," Hammock said, noting that a third of North Carolina's hospitals reported losses last year.
The additional cuts in 2014, brought by the Affordable Care Act, reductions in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements and other changes would be on top of those sequestration cuts.
And the uncertainty of legislative changes still looming in the General Assembly — such as sales tax reforms — make formulating the 2014 budget even more difficult, Hammock said.
"This is probably the most challenging I've ever seen it just because of the (fast pace of changes in regulation). The healthcare industry is being hit from all sides by reform measures and policy changes and payment reforms," Hammock said.
"Because we are so highly regulated, decisions made in Raleigh and Washington have a direct bearing on the healthcare industry," he added.
It's believed ARMC will have to absorb $50 million in lost revenue due to the Affordable Care Act over 10 years and another $10 million from sequestration during that same time, Hammock said.
"It's just tough right now. It's a really tough environment for the whole healthcare industry," Hammock said.
ARMC has operated within a 3-percent margin of its projected budget for the last 13 or 14 years and has consistently made money, Hammock said.
Though ARMC merged with Cone Health on May 1, the timing of the merger means that ARMC is creating its own budget this year. In future years, the merger will have more impact on ARMC's budget, Hammock said.
A $60-million expansion to ARMC's emergency department, cancer center and surgical areas is being paid for over time and shouldn't place a significant burden on the hospital's annual expense budget. Construction on that project began earlier this year and is expected to be complete sometime in early 2014.
"It's being capitalized over time. We're able to do that based on how good we are at managing our day-to-day expenses and … saving for years," Hammock said.
The expansions are to areas projected to see a high volume of patient growth in the coming decade. ER visits are projected to reach 70,000 in 2014.

Jeremy, have you had a chance to walk the course? If so how is it looking, what improvements need to be made, etc.
I think getting local/regional clubs to donate time/money to get OCP back if not better than its original status. I know I'd be down for personally donating money, discs & time.

During a recent visit to the National Museum of the United States Air Force on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, OH I found something that initially gave me hope. It is interesting that a federal installation is hosting a Holocaust display although this is well outside of the mission of the U.S. Air Force and the NMUSAF. I hoped that the tremendous sacrifices of all the civilians from various nations who lost their lives in the genocides of the 20th Century would be so honored with their own large and elaborate displays. In World War II alone there were eleven million Soviet civilians who lost their lives. Many of them starved to death in their bombed out cities which had been turned into veritable death camps while under siege by German troops. There are also the sixteen million Chinese civilians who died during the same conflict. Many of these people were tortured and massacred in operations such as the Rape of Nanking. My hope turned to dismay as I continued my tour of this Air Force installations museum. It appears that the U.S. Air Force suffers from a serious case of bigotry. The lives of six million Jewish people warrant an entire display whereas the deaths of eleven million Soviet people and sixteen million Chinese people who died under equally appalling conditions does not even receive a whisper. With losses two and three times larger it would seem that one would expect a display of equal size at a minimum. In reality adequately telling the story of the Soviet and Chinese losses would require displays much larger than the Holocaust display.
Where too are the displays near the World War I gallery? The total deaths for that conflict reached sixteen million. There were over two million civilian deaths from the Ottoman Empire and one and a half million civilian deaths in Russia alone. The U.S. Air Force further neglected the thirty to forty million civilians killed by our Cold War adversary the Soviets. In the same gallery there is no display for the forty million civilians killed by our other major Cold War adversary the Chinese. What of the two million Korean civilians and the two million Vietnamese civilians who lost their lives in those conflicts?
It is truly appalling and disgusting that the U.S. Air Force honors one ethnic group who lost six million people and ignores tens of millions of civilians who were slaughtered in equally heinous manners. What is driving this glaring and disgusting oversight? How did these other people not even receive a footnote? It is disturbing that the tens of millions who have been ignored are all from Asia which seems to indicate a not so subtle Xenophobia. A wiser and non-bigoted option would be to not have a display at all if all of those who suffered in like manner can not be remembered. As it stands the U.S. Air Force and by default the U.S. federal government have engaged in an action that is an unimaginably large statement of ethnic superiority.

The Carolina Community Mart is bringing back the past.
At least that's what owners Monique and Norman Davis are aiming for.
"That's how I grew up — you went to stores where people knew you and they knew your family, and that's what you need," Monique Davis said. "We're trying to bring it back."
The Davis family opened up the Carolina Community Mart located at 102 Carolina Plantation Blvd. in the Carolina Plantations subdivision on Oct. 18.
The store "that sells a little bit of everything" offers televisions and tables, wireless Internet, snacks, drinks and all the accommodations to the make the establishment a community meeting place, though it is open to the general public as well.
"For us, it's a little more community oriented," Monique Davis said. Davis, who has a background working in recreation, and her husband, who is a police officer with the Jacksonville Police Department, said it was their original intention to create a place where the community could connect.
And so far, it seems to be working. Davis said they have families walk to the mart on a daily basis from their homes, and kids who visit on foot or on their bicycles before and after school. Sometimes mom and dad send them to the store to pick up some groceries.
Davis said they have met people in the neighborhood — the one they call home themselves — they might never have met without the meeting place they have created.
One thing that was particularly important to Davis was creating a safe space for the children in the neighborhood to go, which is why the mart is just across the street from Carolina Forest Elementary School.
"I want the kids to be able to be independent and be able to walk or ride up and grab a snack," she said. "It makes it easy and safe for them."
They have even instituted a system where kids leave change in a cup by the register to help other kids who might be short to buy a snack later on.
Robert and Sandra Johnson live in the Carolina Forest neighborhood and come to the mart once or twice a week, sometimes to just sit down at the tables and have a soda.
Robert Johnson said the store is different from other stores because of its convenience and its close proximity.
Sandra Johnson said the set up with the tables and televisions gives it a homey feel where she can relax. She said it is also clean and an attractive building.
"All the homeowners and people around here are glad for it to be here," Robert Johnson said. "Because they don't have to run all the way down Carolina Forest Boulevard to go to the gas station or the Family Dollar if she's got it here."
In addition, they both said they have met "a lot of nice people" at the store.
Leah Quinn works for Sydes Community, a residential contractor that owns the building where the mart is located. She said with bus stops nearby where mothers wait for their children to get dropped off, she thinks the mart provides a great waiting place out of the elements for parents in the afternoons.
"It's a great community-based business," Quinn said. "I think it's very important that they are very community friendly in their outpour of just helping everybody around."
Norman Davis said the store was a lot of hard work, but the best part has been meeting the neighbors in the area and getting to meet the kids in the neighborhood.
"It kind of takes it back to the old days where you know you could interact with the neighborhood, with parents and kids and get to know them," Davis said. "I think to me since we've been up here, I think that keeps kids out of trouble a lot."
Davis said the children who come into the store are respectful.
"What I like is a lot of the parents have become comfortable … send their kids here to shop," he said. "That's what makes us feel good as a store, that they trust us with their kids."
One of his favorite parts has been the military community who has patronized the store.
"They're supportive, they come out all the time," he said. "Even if they're spending money or not, they just come and watch T.V."
Davis said they get more military spouses than service members, but they also get many active duty, which he enjoys because he was in the Marine Corps, so he enjoys reminiscing, talking about how times have changed, and giving them advice.
They also try to support law enforcement and military personnel by giving them free drinks while they're on their shifts. He said keeping prices affordable is a priority for them.
Davis said one of their main goals for opening the store was to "build a stronger community," safety-wise and through interaction.
"You can live next door to somebody and never get to know them," he said.
In addition, they plan to put on community events, such as their Christmas party from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. today open to the public which will serve food, drinks, and lots of opportunities to get to know the people around you. Davis said they will also have some free giveaways.
"It's only going to get better," he said. "And the reason is the community. They've been very supportive."

Noni has been under our care for 423 days—and that is just way too long. She's receiving lots of attention and socialization with us, but even the ASPCA Adoption Center is no substitute for a loving family.
Noni is one of the prettiest, softest tuxie ladies we've ever seen, and she loves interacting with people, whether she's chasing a toy or receiving a few snuggles. But Noni's life has been anything but easy. She once lived in a hoarding home, and she came to us emaciated; we soon discovered that Noni had an untreated hyperthyroid condition. Our dedicated veterinary staff got Noni back on track, and now she is healthy and flourishing.
But Noni's adopter will need to keep her healthy, and that means not only twice-daily medicine for hyperthyroidism but special food for her sensitive tummy.
We can't wait to see Noni's story of triumph and recovery close with a happy ending, and neither can she. If you've got room in your heart for a special lady like Noni, please consider meeting her today at the ASPCA Adoption Center in NYC. Noni enjoys other cats and wouldn't mind a home with a resident feline friend. If you have any questions, please call the Adoption Desk at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4900.
If you can't bring her home, please share her on Facebook and Twitter. Online fans: You've helped us find homes for animals before—let's do it again for Noni!
omg she looks just like our male cat sammy, identical. sammy would have been 11 years old this year but he passed away due to a heart defect. i cannot believe how identical she is to him.
if i was closer i would adopt her in a heartbeat
There isnt much I can do to help from Seattle, but please keep us updated on Noni. I have spread the word to all of the people I can. This special kitty needs a loving forever home soon!
I will adopt her if New Orleans fails to do so! I live in NC and would fly her here.
I just want to thank u for allowing her to stay alive while waiting, here in windsor ont, we call spca to help a cat , can we bring her in, they told me sure, but she will be dead by the end of the day so she has better luck on the street...i dare say the words humane should no longer be on the sign
I have posted this on my page and hope it helps to make this little girl happy. I have two tuxedo cats already and just no more room for this little lady.
I wonder if she's a candidate for I-131 treatment for her hyperthyroidism. While expensive, this would negate the need for twice daily meds and make her much more reasonable for the average family to adopt.
Yep, I was thinking the same thing, actually. We had it done for one of our cats - if they would do that for her it would potentially make her more adoptable..though if she will eat the pill in those "pill pockets" its not too hard to give meds.
We are interested in adoption. I work here in NYC in the 50s. My husband and I have plenty of experience with special needs pets. Our Tigger passed away at age 20 over the winter with diabetes and a past history of thyroid problems as well. Can you please contact me to discuss Noni's needs further? Thank you. Denise

Inside the Russian Space Program
Our behind-the-scenes exploration of the Russian space program features a VIP viewing of the manned launch of a Soyuz spacecraft.
Tour Details
- Journey from Bangkok to Bali: Following the Spirits
- Haydn Seek
- Smithsonian Journeys to Milford Sound, South Island, New Zealand
- A Leopard Named "Hollywood"
Get as close to outer space as possible while still keeping your feet on the ground during our exciting tour of the Russian Space Program. Enjoy unparalleled access to briefing sessions and VIP viewing areas in Moscow and at Kazakhstan's Baikonur Cosmodrome as preparations are made for a Soyuz launch.
Journey outside Moscow to Star City, the formerly secret training facility for Soviet cosmonauts, where today's space travelers from all over the world prepare for flights. Meet with a Russian cosmonaut, and examine the Mir Space Station Simulator, the Hydrolab for zero-G training, and the largest centrifuge in the world. Then, fly to Kazakhstan's arid steppe to visit the Russian space launch facility, Baikonur Cosmodrome, to witness the manned launch of a Soyuz spacecraft. Mingle with cosmodrome workers, officials, and cosmonauts at the prelaunch activities, which include the rollout of the Soyuz from the assembly hangar to the launch pad, the raising of the rocket ceremony, and the walk along the Alley of Cosmonauts. Enjoy VIP viewing as the Soyuz spacecraft breaks free of Earth's atmosphere on its way to the International Space Station. Limited to 22 participants. *Exact dates subject to change depending on flight schedule.
Check out what a 2014 traveler had to say about our Russian Space Program trip here!
Days 1-2 — U.S., Moscow, Russia
Depart the U.S. for Moscow. Arriving in Moscow, meet fellow travelers at a welcome dinner. (D)
Day 3 — Moscow
Drive outside of Moscow to the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center, or GCTC, in the once highly classified and secretive Star City. The center was established in 1960, and since 1968 has been named for Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space. Today the GCTC remains the premier training facility for Russian cosmonauts and foreign astronauts planning manned space flights.
Trace the evolution of the Soviet space program, exploring the Mir Space Station Simulator (the Mir was operational from 1986-2001), and learn about training joint Russian-American crews on the simulator of the International Space Station (ISS). At the massive hydro lab, or Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory, learn how crews acquire skills for operations outside the space station under simulated weightless conditions. The world's largest centrifuge, used for simulating G-loads, is on the program as well.
Enjoy lunch in the Star City cafeteria, used by the crewmembers in training and other facilitators of the Star City complex. Then meet and talk with one of the Russian cosmonauts. Each participant receives a special certificate recognizing his or her visit to Star City. (B,L,D)
Day 4 — Baikonur, Kazakhstan
Fly to the Baikonur Cosmodrome, on the arid steppe of Kazakhstan. This is a special flight for those going to witness and participate in the launch. On arrival, enjoy an opportunity for a lecture or a meeting with a local guest speaker to prepare for the next few days. You will enjoy unparalleled access to VIP viewing areas and briefing sessions during your time here. (B,L,D)
Day 5 — Baikonur
Begin with an early morning viewing of the roll-out of the awe-inspiring Soyuz Rocket. Follow the Soyuz to the launch pad site and watch the raising of the rocket together with the press, military personnel, cosmonauts, and their relatives.
Visit the main launch pad, the "Gagarin Start," where the Sputnik launches took place, and mingle with the press and other guests. Visit the Baikonur Museum, the Yuri Gagarin and Sergei Korolev living apartments, the monument to the beginning of the Space Age, and the Zenit launch pad. (B,L,D)
Day 6 — Baikonur
Tour the Buran hangar (approximately the size of the Astrodome) where the rockets are assembled, and one of several other launch pads. Visit the local school where students study and build model rockets. Attend the ISS Crew Press Conference at the Cosmonaut Hotel, a chance to ask any burning questions you may have of the next ISS crew. (B,L,D)
Day 7 — Baikonur, launch of the Soyuz
Today is the day of the manned space launch of the Soyuz to the International Space Station. Witness the process before, during, and after the launch. Experience behind-the-scenes events, including the send-off from the Cosmonaut Hotel and the Space Crew ready-to-go official report. Gather at the exclusive VIP launch viewing area for the heart-stirring launch of the Soyuz. (B,L,D)
Note: The order of events in Baikonur may be moved around to coincide with the launch time window.
Day 8 — Baikonur, fly to Moscow
This morning view the docking of the Soyuz with the International Space Station at a specially equipped theater in Baikonur. After the docking, transfer to the airport for a flight back to Moscow. Finish the day with a tour of the Cold War Museum Bunker. Over 200 feet below Moscow is the Secured Command Post "Tagansky," an abandoned relic of the Cold War built to withstand a nuclear attack. Stocked with food and provisions, the 75,000-square-foot space was meant to sustain 5,000 people for three months. Ordered by Stalin in 1951, the shelter was finished in 1956, and soon became a secret communication bunker and, reportedly, a missile control center.
Raise a toast to an out-of-this-world journey during the festive farewell dinner. (B,L,D)
Day 9 — Moscow, U.S.
Depart Moscow for the U.S. Those taking the optional cosmonaut training spend an extra day or two in Moscow training at Star City and depart for the U.S. the following day. See the Activities and Excursions link for descriptions of Optional Cosmonaut Training in Star City. Others may consider an optional post-tour excursion to St. Petersburg. See Tour Extension link for details. (B)

Cabinet Tracker
Monday - 11/12/2012, 2:27pm EST
LAST UPDATED: Aug. 1 2013
President Barack Obama may be staying put for four more years, but many of the top officials he appointed to agency posts are eyeing the exits.
Federal News Radio's Cabinet Tracker will follow the comings and goings of the leaders in his Cabinet (and other high-level presidential appointees) heading into Obama's second term.
Find out who's staying, who's leaving and who has yet to announce their plans. Federal News Radio will continuously update the Cabinet Tracker.
Agriculture | Air Force | ATF | Census | CIA | CMS | Commerce | Consumer Financial Protection Bureau | Defense | Education | Energy | EPA | FAA | FBI | FCC | Federal Chief Information Officer | Federal Chief Technology Officer | FHFA | GSA | HHS | DHS | HUD | ICE | Interior | IRS | Justice | Labor | NOAA | National Security Adviser | NRC | Office of Federal Procurement Policy | OMB | OPM | PTO | SBA | SEC | Secret Service | SSA | State | Transportation | Treasury | Veterans Affairs
Agriculture Department
|Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack will keep his job in President Obama's second term. A USDA spokesman said the President asked Vilsack to stay on and Vilsack accepted.
Air Force
|Air Force Secretary Michael Donley will step down in June after nearly five years on the job, the Air Force announced. Donley, whose last day with the service will be June 21, is the longest serving secretary in Air Force history.
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms
|The Senate approved July 31 the nomination of B. Scott Jones to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms. Jones had been serving as acting ATF director since September 2011, following the resignation of former acting director Kenneth Melson. ATF has not had a permanent director since 2006.
|The Senate confirmed John Brennan as the next director of the CIA on March 7, 2013. Previously, Brennan served as the Deputy National Security Advisor for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism. Former CIA Director David Petraeus resigned unexpectedly Nov. 9 in the wake of public disclosures of an extramarital affair.
Census Bureau
Robert Groves
|Robert Groves stepped down as head of the Census Bureau in August 2012 to become provost of Georgetown University. President Barack Obama announced he would nominate John Thompson, president and CEO of the University of Chicago's National Opinion and Research Center, to head the office. Thompson previously served in a variety of roles at the Census, including associate director.
John Thompson
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
|By an overwhelming 91-7 vote, the Senate confirmed Marilyn Tavenner, a former nurse, to oversee the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Part of the Department of Health and Human Services, CMS has a $850 billion budget. Tavenner was named the acting commissioner in December 2011, after Senate Republicans blocked President Obama's previous nominee, Don Berwick.
Commerce Department
Penny Pritzker
|The Senate confirmed billionaire business executive Penny Pritzker June 25 in a 97-1 vote. President Obama nominated Pritzker, a 2008 campaign fundraiser, in May. Pritzker replaces acting Commerce Secretary Rebecca Blank, who is leaving the administration to serve as chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In the meantime, Commerce Department general counsel Cameron Kerry, John Kerry's brother, has been named acting secretary.
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
|Obama nominated Richard Cordray to stay on as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The President used a recess appointment last year to bypass Congress, which expires at the end of the year.
Defense Department
|The Senate confirmed former Republican Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel to head the Pentagon. Hagel succeeds Leon Panetta.
Education Department
|An Education Department official says Secretary Arne Duncan will remain in President Obama's Cabinet into a second term.
Energy Department
Ernest Moniz
|The Senate confirmed President Obama's choice to head up the Energy Department, MIT physicist Ernest Moniz. He takes over for departing Energy Secretary Steven Chu, who had served as head of the department since 2009.
Environmental Protection Agency
Gina McCarthy
|The Senate confirmed Gina McCarthy to serve as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency June 18 after months of Republican opposition. Senate leaders reached a deal to allow votes on seven nominations, including McCarthy's. She succeeds Lisa Jackson, who had served as administrator since 2009.
Robert Mueller
|Robert Mueller, the long-time director of the FBI, will step down this fall. The Senate confirmed President Barack Obama's pick to succeed Mueller, former Justice Department official James Comey, in a 93-1 vote on July 30.
James Comey
|President Obama nominated Tom Wheeler, former head of the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association, and the National Cable Television Association, to be the next head of the Federal Communications Commission. Current FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski announced in March he would step down after a four-year tenure at the agency.
Federal Aviation Administration
|On Jan. 1, the Senate confirmed Michael Huerta to lead the Federal Aviation Administration. Huerta had served as acting administrator since December 2011 when Randy Babbitt resigned following a drunken driving arrest. (A judge later threw out the arrest.)
Federal Chief Information Officer
|Steven VanRoekel was named the federal chief information officer in August 2011. He ended speculation about his future in Obama's second term by tweeting: "Those who asked if I am staying with the Administration - four words - 2 Legit 2 Quit" on Nov. 9.
Federal Chief Technology Officer
|Todd Park, who has only held the top White House tech post since March, is expected to stay on. Federal IT insiders say they're not hearing much chatter that either Park or VanRoekel are preparing an exit, according to Nextgov.
Federal Housing Finance Agency
|President Obama tapped Rep. Melvin Watt (D-N.C.) to lead the Federal Housing Finance Agency. In that capacity, Watt will oversee government-controlled mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Watt will succeed acting FHFA director Edward DeMarco.
Mel Watt
General Services Administration
|The Senate confirmed Tangherlini June 27 to serve as the permanent head of the General Services Administration. Tangherlini was named acting director of the General Services Administration in April following the abrupt resignation of Martha Johnson after agency investigators uncovered evidence of wasteful spending.
Health and Human Services Department
|White House officials confirmed in January that Sebelius would stay on for Obama's second term. Because the health care law's major provisions don't take effect until 2014 and getting Senate confirmation of a successor would likely be difficult, Sebelius was expected to stay.
Homeland Security Department
|Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano announced July 12, she would step down from her post in September 2013 to head up the University of California Board of Regents.
Housing and Urban Development
|Donovan hasn't provided many hints one way or the other about whether he'll stay in his post. In an appearance on C-SPAN in October, Donovan said: "I anticipate being able to make that decision when he's re- elected." National Journal reported that most Washington watchers expect Donovan to stay on.
Immigrations and Customs Enforcement
John Morton
|Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Director John Morton announced June 17 he would step down at the end of July to work in the private sector. Morton had served as ICE director since May 2009. No word yet on a possible successor.
Interior Department
Sally Jewell
|President Barack Obama nominated Sally Jewell, the president and CEO of outdoors company Recreational Equipment, Inc., (REI), to be the secretary of the Interior Department. The Senate confirmed Jewell April 10.
Internal Revenue Service
|President Obama appointed Office of Management and Budget Controller Danny Werfel to serve as acting IRS commissioner. On Aug. 1, Obama announced he would nominate restructuring expert John Koskinen, formerly of Freddie Mac and the Office of Management and Budget, to a full five-year term as IRS commissioner.
John Koskinen
Justice Department
|Despite much speculation, Attorney General Eric Holder will stay on for Obama's second term, according to White House officials.
Labor Department
Thomas Perez
|The Senate confirmed Thomas Pereze to serve as secretary of Labor July 18 after months of Republican opposition. Senate leaders reached a deal to allow votes on seven nominations, including Perez's. He succeeds Hilda Solis, who announced her resignation Jan. 9.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
|National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrator Jane Lubchenco stepped down as NOAA administrator in February. President Barack Obama nominated Dr. Mark Schaefer to serve as NOAA administrator and assistant secretary for Oceans and Atmosphere at the Commerce Department. Schaefer currently serves as the deputy executive director for Environmental Conflict Resolution at the Morris K. Udall and Stewart L. Udall Foundation, an independent executive branch agency.
National Security Adviser
Tom Donilon
|Tom Donilon, White House national security adviser, announced he would step down in July after serving four years in the Obama White House. President Barack Obama announced he would appoint Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations as Donilon's successor.
Susan Rice
Nuclear Regulatory Commission
|The Senate confirmed Allison Macfarlane for a full term as chairwoman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on June 27. Macfarlane had been leading the commission on an acting basis for about a year.
Office of Federal Procurement Policy
|Obama nominated Jordan, a former SBA official, to fill the vacancy left by Dan Gordon. The Senate confirmed Jordan in May 2012. Since Jordan has only recently taken over the role, it seems unlikely he would step down in the near future.
Office of Management and Budget
Sylvia Mathews Burwell
|The Senate confirmed Sylvia Mathews Burwell to run the Office of Management and Budget by a 96-0 vote. Burwell is the former deputy budget director and president of the Walmart Foundation. Jeff Zients, who had been serving as acting director, will return to his deputy director for management role.
Office of Personnel Management
|On May 23, President Barack Obama announced his intent to nominate Katherine Archuleta as the next director of OPM. Elaine Kaplan, OPM's general counsel, has been serving as acting director since John Berry stepped down when his term expired April 14.
Patent and Trademark Office
|Kappos announced to PTO employees he would stay on through January 2013 and then step down. He led the agency since 2009 and helped oversee implementation of a major congressional overhaul of patent law. The Wall Street Journal reported that Teresa Stanek Rea, the office's deputy director, will take over after he steps down. No word yet on a permanent successor.
Small Business Administration
|Small Business Administration head Karen Mills announced she would step down after a successor is named. No word yet on a possible replacement.
Securities and Exchange Commission
Mary Jo White
|The Senate confirmed Mary Jo White's nomination to serve as the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission April 8. White, a former U.S. attorney, replaces Mary Schapiro, who left the agency in December.
Secret Service
|President Obama named veteran
Secret Service agent Julia Pierson to be the agency's first female director.
Pierson was most recently the Secret Service's chief of staff. She will succeed Mark Sullivan, who announced that he was stepping down in February.
Pierson's appointment does not require Senate approval.
Social Security Administration
|Michael Astrue, who was appointed by President George W. Bush in February
2007, will step down Jan. 19, when his six-year term expires. The White House
hasn't made indications of a possible replacement yet.
Possible Replacements:
State Department
|After being confirmed by the Senate, former Massachusetts Democratic Senator John Kerry took over as Secretary of State on Feb. 4, 2013.
Transportation Department
Anthony Foxx
|The Senate unanimously confirmed Anthony Foxx, the mayor of Charlotte, N.C., to be transportation secretary. President Obama nominated Foxx to succeed outgoing secretary Ray LaHood in April.
Treasury Department
|Jack Lew was confirmed as the next Treasury Secretary on Feb. 20, 2013. Lew takes over for Tim Geithner who had served as Treasury secretary since 2009. Lew previously served as White House Chief of Staff and as budget director.
Veterans Affairs Department
|The White House confirmed that Shinseki would stay on for the second term.

Comments about Tri-Flow Super Dry 2 OZ. Lube:
Great lube for oiling up the chain a night before a ride. Needs to "dry" for a while so don't apply and go for a ride.
You will need to shake up the bottle if it hasn't been used in a while, the lubricant feels as if it almost turns into a gel in the bottle, but shake it up a few times and your golden. I don't recommend keeping in a vehicle (especially in cold weather). It will freeze.
Buy more bottles than you think you'll need, as you'll wind up using more than you really need. Overall, a solid dry lubricant

GREENVILLE - A local father of three is on his way to Orient, Ohio to begin a two-year prison sentence for multiple felony convictions.
Daniel L Trittschuh, 27, of Greenville was sentenced Monday after pleading guilty in November to 10 separate felony charges. He was convicted on one count of Burglary, a felony of the third degree; two counts of Grand Theft, fourth degree felonies; four counts of Forgery, two counts of Trafficking in Drugs and a sole count of Complicity to Theft, all felonies of the fifth degree.
The burglary charge stemmed from an Aug. 9 incident where Trittschuh stole from his grandparents to allegedly support his admitted drug abuse problem. According to a pre-sentence investigation, his drug use dates back to childhood starting with heroin use at age 12, followed by methamphetamine and cocaine abuse as a teenager. The court determined that all of the criminal offenses were drug motivated in some way.
"I believe Daniel would benefit from the MonDay Program with having a horrific drug problem," Trittschuh's defense attorney David A. Rohrer stated prior to sentencing. "As much as we don't like to see a young man break into his grandparents home, I don't think their was any harm intended, he just wanted to steal stuff to be able to buy drugs."
"All of my co-defendants have used me as a scape route," Trittschuh pleaded with the judge. "I would like to be released on house arrest or an OR [Own Recognizance] bond before I go to MonDay Program."
In lieu of a community control sanction that would involve an evaluation for the MonDay Program, Darke County Common Pleas Court Judge Jonathan P. Hein ruled to send Trittschuh to serve 24 months, with 4 months time served. The judge ordered Trittschuh to pay restitution of over $3,000 to several local financial institutions and law enforcement agencies.
He will be placed on post release control for a period of 36 months after he completes the prison sentence. He is scheduled to appear in a Miami County courtroom Dec. 23 for a pending felony case.
The case was handled by Darke County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Deborah S. Quigley for the state.

Senior Internet Editor
Moving 4,300 employees to a new facility, whether it's next door or not, isn't easy.
Federal News Radio has been telling you about the Defense Information Systems Agency's relocation from Northern Virginia to new facilities in Fort Meade, Maryland. Jack Penkoske is director of manpower, personnel and security at DISA, and he joins us now with more information on the move.
Jack Penkoske, director of manpower, personnel and security at DISA, told the Federal Drive this is huge move even though it's only 26 miles.
Penkoske said the number one concern of the workforce has been how to get to the new facility on a daily basis. DISA's response has been to offer as many different options as possible to employees including guaranteed rides home, charter buses, van pools, car pools, and even telework.
We are going to, around the first of December, open the first classified telework center, I think, in the federal government. It's in the Woodbridge area, which is where we have a good portion of our workforce. That's the farthest away from Fort Meade, so we felt a need to do that. It won't impact a huge portion of the population, but those are the kinds of examples of things I think you have to do. Look at everything you can to help the workforce and the organization and then put them in place.
According to Penkoske, some of the best advice he could give to other agencies is to look at every possible thing to help your workforce. "Do everything you can to help."
Other best practices, said Penkoske, when faced with this situation include intense planning up front, check for the interdependencies, then really putting together a huge communication plan to inform the workforce about what's going on and when you expect things to happen.
DISA's move is on track, said Penkoske, but he admits he was knocking on wood as he said that. "Everything is moving ahead. The first actual move of our employees into the new facilities will start in January and then we have an aggressive schedule to move individuals. Actually every weekend we'll be moving about 150 to 200 employees from January through the end of next July, until we get everybody into the new facilities."
He credits "ROC drills," or Rehearsal of Concept drills, for a big part of the success of the move so far. "We've actually gone down to the level of detail of planning exactly when each individual will move, what equipment they'll have to have, all the logisitics associated with moving of secret and classified information. So we've had several...Rehearsal of Concept drills to go down to that level of detail to make sure we're not missing anything in the planning process."
In a sure sign of progress, said Penkoske, "although the first real moves into the building start in January, we already have our new security force in place up at the building at Fort Meade."
DISA recently completed phase one of relocation with a ceremony in which DISA director Army Lieutenant General Carroll Pollett received the key to the agency's new facilities.
As work continues on the lab and administration buildings, said Penkoske, "one of our big focuses right now is getting everybody signed up for the different (commuting) options from the different locations."

When should you treat a sports injury yourself, and when should you stop playing until you see a physician? Here are a few sports injuries that you should know about.
Head injuries/concussions
Don't take chances with a concussion or any other head injury.
The brain is composed of tissue with the consistency of gelatin and is normally cushioned by spinal fluid. A concussion occurs when the brain knocks against the bony surface of the skull. Injuries that can occur to the brain in a concussion are bruising, tearing blood vessels, stretching nerve fibers and increase in the pressure inside the skull as a result of bleeding or swelling. In a concussion, normal brain function is affected.
Concussions can be caused by a blow to the head or by a rapid deceleration that causes the brain to slosh inside the skull. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1.6 million to 3.8 million concussions due to sports- and recreation-related activities occur each year.
The American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) says that about 300,000 concussions occur each year in high school, college, and professional football players and that the risk of concussion in football is three to six times higher in players who have had a previous concussion.
In most cases, concussions do not cause a loss of consciousness. One concussion does not usually cause permanent damage, but the AANS warns that there is no such thing as a "mild concussion."
A health care provider should always be consulted, especially if any of these symptoms occur:
- Unconsciousness
- Headache
- Vision disturbance
- Dizziness
- Loss of balance
- Confusion
- Memory loss
- Ringing ears
- Nausea or vomiting
- Difficulty in concentrating
Symptoms in adults that require immediate medical attention:
- Headaches that get worse
- Weakness, numbness or decreased coordination
- Repeated vomiting
- Cannot be awakened
- Have one pupil -- the black part in the middle of the eye -- larger than the other
- Convulsions or seizures
- Slurred speech
- Getting more and more confused, restless or agitated
Symptoms in children that require immediate medical attention:
- Any of the danger signs for adults (see above)
- Child won't stop crying
- Child can't be consoled
- Child won't nurse or eat
Post-concussion syndrome can occur to people who suffer a head injury. They may have poor memory and concentration, headache, fatigue and dizziness for weeks or months after the injury. In children who have even a moderate concussion, there may be an increase in irritability, angry behavior and meanness for up to a year. The AANS recommends that athletes not return to play while they have these symptoms and that those who have had repeated concussions should consider ending participation in that sport.
Neck injuries
The neck supports the head and is very flexible, so many injuries to the neck occur from a fall or an abrupt jerking of the head (whiplash). Neck pain can be caused by strains, sprains or fractures. Strains and sprains are injuries to the muscles and ligaments. Pain can also come from injury to nerves that branch from the neck into the arms and hands. The action that injures a neck does not have to be sudden. Injury can occur over a period of time from activities that strain the neck such as mountain bike riding and horseback riding.
Symptoms that indicate medical attention is necessary:
- Neck pain after an injury; if the pain is severe, the person should not be moved and emergency medical personnel should be called
- Pain or numbness radiating down an arm, or weakness in an arm
- Pain that continues for a period of time
If severe neck pain occurs after an injury, such as in a motor vehicle accident, diving accident or fall, a trained professional, such as a paramedic, should immobilize the person to avoid the risk of further injury and possible paralysis. Seek immediate medical care.
Immediate medical care should also be sought when an injury causes pain in the neck that radiates down the arms and legs. Radiating pain or numbness in your arms or legs that causes weakness in the arms or legs without significant neck pain should also be evaluated.
The treatment for neck pain depends on the cause. Most often a combination of rest, medication and immobilization are successful. If these are not effective, physical therapy and occasionally surgery are needed.
Elbow tendonitis
The elbow is formed by three bones: the bone of the upper arm (humerus) and the two bones of the forearm (radius and ulna). The two bony knobs at the end of the humerus are called epicondyles. Tendons attach muscles to bones at the epicondyles. These muscles move the wrist and fingers. Overuse of these muscles in sports or other activities can cause the tendons to become inflamed or torn. This condition is commonly known as "golfer's elbow" or "tennis elbow."
A symptom of elbow tendonitis is pain while doing activities that involve the wrist and fingers, such as using a screwdriver, hammer or scissors. Pain may continue even when the hand is resting.

Dog Kennel Cough
Dog Kennel Cough
Kennel cough in dogs, also known as tracheobronchitis, is a highly contagious disorder found in dogs all over the world. It is typically an infection or other problem associated with the respiratory system of canines. It can be a scary thing for pet owners, especially for those whose dogs are experiencing it for the very first time. The good news is that kennel cough is highly treatable when the appropriate measures are taken.
Causes of Kennel Cough
Tracheobronchitis can be spread through a number of bacteria and viruses. The most common bacteria that can cause kennel cough are known as the parainfluenza virus and mycoplasma. Typically, the infection appears when a variety of bacteria and viruses are present. If only one is contracted by the dog, the condition is typically shorter and produces very mild symptoms. However, because of the probability of more than one infectious agent being present at any one time, the infection typically lasts a total of 14-20 days.
Signs and Symptoms
The primary symptom of kennel cough in dogs is a dry, hacking cough that is followed by a gagging sensation. Runny nasal discharge is also a common sign. Most dogs suffering from mild cases tend to look fine other than their coughing and a runny nose. In most cases, dogs do not experience a Dog Loss of Appetite, nor are their appetites typically suppressed, and their activity will usually not decrease. If the dog is having these signs along with recently being exposed to other dogs, then it is probable that they are experiencing kennel cough.
Diagnosis of Kennel Cough
Calling your vet before taking your dog into the veterinary clinic is ideal. This will prevent your dog from further exposure to infectious bacteria, as well as prevent other dogs from contracting the condition. Most vets can diagnose kennel cough based on the signs and history of the dog coming into contact with other canines, whether it be at a pet store, boarding facility, doggie day care, or at the park. Blood and other tests can be performed to determine the exact agent that caused the kennel cough, but this step is often not necessary.
Antibiotics are the most common form of treatment for kennel cough in dogs. These medications should be given until the course of treatment is completed. Failure to do so can cause the condition to return, or allow it to be spread to other dogs. It is advised to keep the dog home and away from other canines. Dog beds and any other fabric that frequently comes into contact with the dog should be washed.
Preventing kennel cough is said to be the best method of treatment for the ailment. Bordatella vaccinations are available to prevent the onset of the tracheobronchitis. These vaccines should be given yearly to keep the dog protected from the condition. Many vets and kennels require these shots to be administered prior to allowing the dog into their facility.
