PAL flies to Guangzhou, China, starting July 16
MANILA, Philippines–Philippine Airlines (PAL) will start flying to Guangzhou, a city rich in historical and cultural heritage, on July 16, 2013, bringing to six PAL's total destinations in China.
In a statement issued to media, the flag carrier said it will have four flights weekly to the capital of Guangdong province via PR382, with return flights via PR 383. Current PAL destinations in China include Beijing, Xiamen, Shanghai, Macau and Hong Kong.
The new PAL service provides Guangzhou business and leisure passengers convenient connections to PAL's 31 domestic and 32 international destinations from its hub in Manila. PAL will also be one of the few full-service carriers to operate at the Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport.
PAL President Ramon S. Ang said, "The launching of the Manila – Guangzhou – Manila route aims to further strengthen the strong ties between both cities. More importantly, this will allow business travelers and tourists the chance to spend time in the Philippines, and hop to any of our domestic or international destinations."
The flights are being launched in the wake of robust tourist arrivals to and from Guangzhou, formerly known as Canton. In 2012 alone, there were 52,279 Manila tourist arrivals in the Chinese city and 56,107 Chinese tourist arrivals in Manila.
Guangzhou is the third largest city in China, after Beijing and Shanghai. Its isolation from the rest of China by mountains and early exposure to Western influence has led to a consumerist lifestyle, liberal ideas, distinctive cuisine and tremendous wealth. Many tourists prefer not just to shop but also to experience its culinary delights.
Guangzhou is less than two hours away by train from Hong Kong.
Having three industrial zones, the city accommodates countless huge markets specializing in almost any made-in-China products, including tea, herbs, garments, watches, electronics and toys, whose low prices attract enterprising travelers from around the world. Usually, sculptures made of jade, wood and olive from the whole region are most sought-after.
As a port city with different travel options, Guangzhou has an extensive underground railway system using high-speed trains, a two-runway international airport, the world's second largest Bus Rapid Transit (mass transport system) and river ferries.
PAL first flew to Guangzhou (Canton) on August 1, 1979 using tri-engine Boeing 727-200. PAL was the first Southeast Asian airline to fly to China after Beijing reopened the country's doors to the outside world in 1975.
Recently, PAL launched maiden journeys to Darwin, Brisbane and Perth in June 2013 and to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Basco, Batanes in May, 2013. The flag carrier and its affiliate PAL Express are slated to mount flights to Abu Dhabi, Doha, Dubai, Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam in the Middle East before the end of 2013.

The Devil Town
Last updated by fabiowzgogo at 2015/4/28
The area of the unpredictable mysterious Devil's Town is about 80 kilometers. There are many stone models like Arabic mosque, Cambodia Angkor Wat and Potala Palace and so on in the Town and some of the stone models look like other lifelike life sketches. All of them are very attracting. However, in geology, the geomorphologic structure of the Devil's Town is a kind of wind erosion geomorphology. The geomorphology is made of different sedimentary rocks of Triassic, different sedimentary rocks of Jurassic, and different sedimentary rocks of Cretaceous. Under the natural forces like rain erosion and wind erosion of millions of years, the colorful natural landscape of the Devil's Town is mysteriously developed at last.

2003 Ford Windstar Problems
The Check Engine Light may illuminate with fault code P0171 and/or P0174 stored, indicating a lean fuel mixture. Our technicians tell us the left valve cover gasket, upper intake gaskets, vacuum line, and bolts may need to be replaced with updated parts to correct this concern.
A knocking noise from the upper engine area may indicate a loose intake runner. Our technicians tell us if this is the case, replacement of the upper intake clamshell will be necessary.
Warped front brake rotors may cause the steering wheel to shimmy when the brakes are applied. Our technicians tell us the brake rotors and pads should be replaced to correct this concern.

2003 Ford Windstar Recalls
Certain vehicles currently registered or originally sold in Virginia are being recalled. Corrosion related fractures of the front subframe may occur. The areas in question are the rear attaching brackets for the front lower control arm and the rear body mount attachments. Failure in either area could result in significant loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will inspect the areas in question and perform the necessary repairs. The Ford recall number is 11S16.
Certain vehicles currently registered or originally sold in Virginia are being recalled. Over time, corrosion can weaken the rear axle making it susceptible to torsional stress. This can lead to cracks, increasing the risk of complete fracture of the rear axle. A fractured axle can affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will inspect the rear axle and install rear axle reinforcement brackets or replace the axle as necessary. The Ford recall number is 10S13.
A corroded mounting bracket can cause the lower control arm to become loose or separate and/or the frame mounting bolts may cause the steering shaft to separate from the steering gear. One or both of these failures can result in loss of steering control. Dealers will inspect the affected areas and perform the necessary repairs. This recall is expected to begin by February 14, 2011. The Ford recall number is 11S16.
2003 Ford Windstar Reviews
I have a 2003 ford windstar van.I have a problem at red lights.The van revs up to the point that if I really didnot mash on the break I would be affaid that I would hit the car in front of me.What canI do?And what is wrong?
DEAR SIR I HAVE A 2003 FORD WINDSTAR AND THE AUTOMATIC WINDOW ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS GIVING ME A PROBLEM ,WITH HELP I FINALLY GOT THE INSIDE DOOR COVER OFF AND FOUND THE LARGE SPRING LAYING AT THE BOTTOM ,INSIDE THE DOOR .WHERE DOES IT GO AND HOW DO I REINSTALL IT .............. THANKS TIM CYR emailme at email@example.com

Probe into killing of fishermen yet to be over
The government on Thursday submitted before the Kerala High Court that the Italian ship Enrica Lexie should not be allowed to leave the Indian territorial waters as the investigation into the case relating to the killing of two fishermen by Italian marines was yet to be completed.
In a statement filed in response to a writ petition filed by the agent of the ship seeking permission to sail out of the Indian territorial waters, the State government said the forensic report revealed that there had been tampering with the firearms used for the commission of the offence.
Therefore, further investigation would have to be conducted inside the vessel for seizing "material objects and evidence", for which, the presence of the ship off Kochi was required. A report from the forensic laboratory was expected in 14 days and thereafter, a decision could be taken on the course of further investigation.
Besides, the implication of the Master of the ship in the case would depend on the material collected during further investigation. At present, the investigation had not been concluded , the government said. The State government also pointed out that the investigation was delayed for more than 10 days when the investigation officers were refused entry into the ship.
Meanwhile, arguments on a writ petition filed by Italy seeking to quash the criminal case registered against the two marines resumed before the court of Justice P.S. Gopinathan.
While Advocate-General K.P. Dandapani contended that the State government had absolute jurisdiction to register the case under various laws including the Suppression of Unlawful Act of Violence against Safety of Maritime Navigation and Fixed Platforms on Continental Shelf Act 2001, counsel for Italy pointed out that action under the SUV Act could be taken only against terrorists or pirates.
Counsel also argued that even under the SUV Act, the State government had no jurisdiction to lodge a first information report.
In fact, the Central government had only been empowered to register any case under the Act.
Assistant Solicitor-General Vanchiyoor Parameswaran Nair, appearing for the Centre, supported the action of the State government and submitted that the contention that the State had no jurisdiction to register a case was untenable.
The Advocate-General also submitted before the court that during the course of investigation, the offence under the SUV Act would be incorporated in the FIR. In fact, the investigation was still on. The court adjourned to March 19 for hearing further arguments.
The court also adjourned the hearing on a petition for a directive to take action against the Master of the Italian ship and the naval marines under the Admiralty Offences (Colonial) Act, 1849, and the SUA Act, 2001. In fact, no action had been taken against the Master of the vessel or the owner, the two sisters of a fisherman killed by the marines complained in their petition.
Keywords: Kerala fishermen killing, Staffan De Mistura, Enrica Lexie, Italian Marines, India-Italy relations

Special Correspondent
HYDERABAD: Several trade unions on Sunday expressed support to the APSRTC Employees Union, which called for an indefinite strike from May 11 to press its long-pending demands.
At a round table here, union president N.A. Khan said the management had gone back on several points in the agreement signed with the unions on October 19, 2005.
Among the demands of the union are regularisation of services of over 11,500 employees including drivers, conductors and technical staff on casual/contract basis, scrapping in toto the system of hiring staff under the system in future, checking illicit operations and depots' closure.
B. Rama Rao, president, National Federation of Indian Road Transport Workers, expressed solidarity of its members across 13 States with the crusading RTC employees.
He regretted that for the first time in the RTC's 75-year history, 12 of the 212 depots were closed.
Outsourcing of several functions had crept into at least 160 of them.
V. Gopal Reddy, State president, Andhra Pradesh Non-Gazetted Officers Association, said that RTC unions were `perfectly' justified and hoped the Government would hold discussions.
Among those present were V. Raja Ramamohan Rao and K. Padmakar, the union working president and general secretary respectively, M.N. Reddy, Staff and Workers' Federation president and Narasimha Rao of the Telugu Nadu Trade Union Congress.

University of Memphis drops football seat-fee donation plan for 2011
A per-seat donation plan for University of Memphis home football games at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium, which would have been implemented for the 2011 season, has been put on hold.
University of Memphis athletic director R.C. Johnson said Thursday that he was scrapping the proposed plan -- for now -- after receiving feedback from booster groups, donors and season-ticket holders. The per-seat donation would have affected about 20,000 of the stadium's 60,000 seats.
Johnson said the current economic climate played a significant factor in the decision.
"It also came down to timing, not need," Johnson said. "The need (to generate additional revenue) hasn't changed any."
Donations in football would have ranged from $25 to $250, with the highest per-seat fee placed on box seats on the press box side of the stadium. Associate athletic director for development Bill Lansden said such a per-seat plan would have generated between $500,000 and $600,000 for the football program, which operates annually at a deficit of more than $2 million.
The per-seat donation plan would have been a first for the Tiger football program. The basketball per-seat plan -- from $25 per second-level terrace-level seat to $3,000 per floor seat -- was implemented two years ago and replaced a 25-year-old Tiger Scholarship Fund plan that required lump-sum donations of between $100 and $25,000 in exchange for four to 14 season tickets.
"Most of the athletic directors around the country I've talked to have done this, or are seriously thinking about doing it," Johnson said. "Nobody thought they'd do it right now, which is more of a reflection on the economy and not the particular need of their programs."
Per-seat donations for football would have gone to the TSF, which pays for the scholarship costs of more than 300 student-athletes.
The fund raised a record $7.3 million for the fiscal year that ended June 30. Scholarship costs for the university range between $6 million and $7 million annually. Excess funds are used to supplement the school's $34 million athletic budget.
Johnson didn't rule out exploring a per-seat plan in the future "in order to grow the program."
Bobby Wharton, a former president of the school's Highland Hundred football booster group, said the decision to delay implementing such a plan was a sound one.
"I think in all honesty it is something that maybe should be done at some point in the future, but not right now," Wharton said. "We are building a program, we are trying to put butts in seats, and they want to do something that would take people out of seats?
"I think it would have been greed, and poor timing, had the university done it now. I think the university is wise in holding off right now."
The announcement Thursday followed a two-week stretch in which the Tigers were outscored a combined 104-7 by Tulsa and Louisville. Johnson said the team's play didn't factor into the decision.
"We've been thinking about doing this for three years," he said.
Memphis has lost five of its six games this season and plays Southern Miss at 11 a.m. Saturday in a Conference USA game at the Liberty Bowl.

Arnie's Rebounding World: The One Thing I Won't Do
Published: Apr 9, 2014 12:18 pm
Having recently been discharged from the hospital after my third cycle of high-dose chemo, I was at the outpatient clinic at the hospital recently on a Saturday for lab work and a checkup.
The medical tech who was drawing my blood was a woman I have come to know. She has seen me walking in, dragging myself in, and being wheeled in through years of treatment. She has seen me through two stem cell transplants, a donor transplant, multiple rounds of chemo, and countless rounds of myeloma treatments.
While accessing my port, she shook her head and remarked, "You don't give up do you. Is there anything you won't do?" She paused and thought for a second and said, "I know what you won't do: nothing!"
My wife and I laughed, but her statement hit me dead on. I hadn't really thought about it that way, but she was right.
Up to this point, that has been my default position. When it comes to trying to manage my multiple myeloma, the one thing I have refused to do is nothing. There are times when this has meant pushing against advice and conventional wisdom.
On one occasion a couple of years ago, I was in a really bad spot with my disease. Nothing seemed to be working, and we were advised that I would not survive further high-dose chemotherapy. I thought, "We have to at least try. What are we going to do, nothing?" Fortunately, the chemo was successful beyond our hopes.
When told a donor (allogeneic) stem cell transplant was probably not going to be helpful, we kept pushing for it. I had to at least try. I am now 20 months post donor transplant.
Unfortunately, I have relapsed after the donor transplant and have had to continue to try to find some way to keep my disease under control. Doing nothing still just doesn't seem like an option. After progressing on a regimen of Kyprolis (carfilzomib), Pomalyst (pomalidomide, Imnovid), cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan), and dexamethasone (Decadron), I have just finished three cycles of Velcade (bortezomib), thalidomide (Thalomid), and dexamethasone plus cisplatin, doxorubicin (Adriamycin), cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (known as VTD-PACE), which thankfully has been very effective in reducing my disease.
In a recent column, I had written about the compassionate use program and our effort to get access to the monoclonal antibody elotuzumab through that program. We were initially denied when Bristol-Myers Squibb, the company that develops elotuzumab, closed their compassionate use program for the drug.
The really good news is that through some tremendous efforts by one of my doctors, Dr. Ken Anderson (who by the way also refuses to give up), and the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, Bristol-Myers Squibb has reconsidered their decision and has reopened their compassionate use program for elotuzumab and I am now approved. So that is my next step.
I have always tried to seek other opinions, think ahead, research, and have a plan. Everything in medicine comes down to an assessment of risks versus potential benefits. However, as time goes on, I am willing to accept more risk and side effects in dealing with disease. It's not a matter of courage or heroics. In my mind, there is just no other way to approach this. I don't want to go down without trying everything I can. I don't want to feel I've left any cards on the table.
Up to this point, I have been very lucky that I have responded when things seem to be at their worst, and I have been able to bounce back. I know that at some point that might not work out.
That brings me to the flip side to all of this, and that's the one that really worries me. There may very well come a time when doing nothing is the right thing to do, when further treatment really is futile, or the risks so far outweigh the potential benefits, that it's just not worth it.
As a practicing physician, I saw too many times what seemed like needless suffering in the name of heroic efforts to stay alive. I remember, long before I ever got sick, shaking my head and thinking I hope that's not me. But will I have the wisdom and courage to recognize that time when it comes? It seems like that's the really hard part.
I don't feel like I'm anywhere near there yet. For now, I will continue to do anything and everything I can. When the time comes to do nothing, will it be a natural progression and obvious, or will the instinct to not do "nothing" cloud my judgment?

Coast Guard: Body found near burned Gulf oil rig
Grand Isle Shipyard employed 14 of the 22 workers on the platform at the time of the explosion, WWL-TV reported. A man who answered the phone at the company's Galliano, La., office on Saturday said no one was available to comment.
Separate from the accident, Grand Isle Shipyard is facing a lawsuit by a group of former workers from the Philippines who claim they were confined to cramped living quarters and forced to work long hours for substandard pay. The lawsuit was filed in late 2011 in a Louisiana federal court and is pending. Lawyers for the company have said the workers' claims are false and should be dismissed.
Meanwhile, officials said no oil was leaking from the charred platform, a relief for Gulf Coast residents still weary two years after the BP oil spill illustrated the risk that offshore drilling poses to the region's ecosystem and economy.
Friday's fire sent an ominous black plume of smoke into the air reminiscent of the deadly 2010 Deepwater Horizon explosion that transformed the oil industry and life along the U.S. Gulf Coast
James A. Watson, the director of Louisiana's Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, said in a statement Saturday that his agency had begun "an investigation into the explosion and fire aboard a Black Elk Energy production platform offshore Louisiana."
"BSEE is committed to determining the direct and indirect causes of the explosion and will take appropriate enforcement action," he said.
The Deepwater Horizon blaze killed 11 workers and led to an oil spill that took months to bring under control. Friday's fire came a day after BP PLC agreed to plead guilty to a raft of charges in the 2010 spill and pay a record $4.5 billion in penalties.
There were a few important differences between this latest blaze and the one that touched off the worst offshore spill in U.S. history: Friday's fire was put out within hours, while the Deepwater Horizon burned for more than a day, collapsed and sank.
The Black Elk Energy facility is a production platform in shallow water, rather than an exploratory drilling rig like the Deepwater Horizon looking for new oil on the seafloor almost a mile (1.6 kilometers) deep.
The depth of the 2010 well blow-out proved to be a major challenge in bringing the disaster under control.
The Black Elk Energy platform is in 56 feet (17 meters) of water - a depth much easier for engineers to manage if a spill had happened.
A sheen of oil about a half-mile (800 meters) long and 200 yards (180 meters) wide was reported on the Gulf surface, but officials believe it came from residual oil on the platform.
"It's not going to be an uncontrolled discharge from everything we're getting right now," Coast Guard Capt. Ed Cubanski said.
Hoffman, the Black Elk Energy spokeswoman, said Saturday that there were still no signs of any leak or spill at the platform site.
BP's blown-out well spewed millions of gallons (liters) of oil into the sea, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River on the east side of the river delta. The crude fouled beaches, marshes and rich seafood grounds.

Little and large: two performance Fords hit LA
Another classic feature from the last 20 years of TG mag: can a 'world car' work for passionate performance sub-brands?
Posted: 18 Oct 2013
TF: Funny that. It feels like the idea of a world performance car - a fast car that works in lots of markets - still needs to feel slightly edgy. That's the common theme for any fast Ford, whether you're talking about the Mustang or an ST. And I still envy Pat in the Mustang. Right here, right now, it's the best car in the world. But not the best car for the world. And on the flipside of that, the Fiesta ST makes me confident that we're not looking blankly at a future filled with tepid tweakery. It might not be the fastest, but it keys into a theme of the past couple of years: accessibility. Fast without fear. Both in terms of paying for it, and also in terms of being able to enjoy a car without having to take it to a race track. More than that, this is the smallest, plainest fast Ford, and it's good, simple fun. At 17 grand, it offers hot-hatch thrills for warm-hatch bills, and is an object lesson in neat front-wheel-drive handling.
Obviously encephalopathic old dinosaurs like the Mustang sweat character. But cars these days are produced for a global market, and they're too specific to survive. Enjoy them while we have them, and take heart in the fact that cars like the Fiesta ST aren't all that far away from greatness - they bode well. The shape of the landscape is changing, but on the strength of this, Ford still knows how to paint a pretty picture.

Give it Up
People on DP don't care about horses. I have posted threads about the abuse of horses and the feedback I got was about how good horses tasted as well as cats, dogs, parrots, and anything else that breathed Oh, they didn't fail to mention that HUMANS were not on the menu like that made it all better. I lost a great deal of respect for people on DP thanks to that. How can people claim to be so enlightened and yet be so closed hearted? I don't know or care anymore. I guess it comes from being closed off from nature. Of course if you are an animal lover they make out like you are some radical PETA nut (which btw shows that they are as brainwashed about PETA as the mindless masses are about Ron Paul) so like I said, give it up on DP when it comes to animals. No one here has the sense to care!

A 70-year-old woman was referred to us for evaluation of a presumed left-sided neck mass. The referral was based on the visual appearance of subtle neck asymmetry. The patient reported no ENT symptoms. Clinical examination and ultrasonography identified no pathology, but computed tomography revealed that the asymmetry was present because the patient's right sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) was absent. The SCM on the left side was normal. Congenital absence of an SCM is uncommon, and to the best of our knowledge, an initial presentation in an adult has not been previously reported in the literature.
The optic nerve and other important structures in the anterior skull base can be involved in chronic sphenoidal sinus disease.
We describe what we believe is only the third reported case of coexisting first and bilateral second branchial fistulas associated with nonfamilial branchio-otic syndrome. The patient was a 6-year-old girl who presented with bilaterally draining anterior neck puncta, a preauricular sinus, and moderately severe bilateral hearing loss. She had no family history of branchial anomalies. Compared with branchial cysts and sinuses, branchial fistulas are rare. Even more rare are bilateral second branchial fistulas coexisting with first branchial anomalies, as only 10 cases have been previously reported in the English-language literature. Of these 10 cases, 5 were associated with either branchio-otic syndrome or branchio-oto-renal syndrome; 2 patients had familial branchio-otic syndrome, 2 had nonfamilial branchio-otic syndrome, and 1 had nonfamilial branchio-oto-renal syndrome.
A 60-year-old man with a 7-year history of cluster headaches was seen by an oral surgeon for evaluation of pain in the left upper second molar ipsilateral to the side affected by the headaches. During extraction of the tooth, infection, decay, and inflammation were discovered. Since the extraction in November 2008, the patient has experienced one episode of cluster headaches as of April 2013.
We report the case of a 9-year-old girl who presented with a complaint of a malodorous bloody discharge from the left naris. The patient had previously undergone a complete repair of left-sided cleft lip and palate. Clinical examination revealed hyperplasia of the nasal mucosa on the left side. X-ray examination of the nasal cavity demonstrated a radiopaque structure that resembled a tooth and a radiopaque mass similar to an odontoma that was adherent to the root of the suspected tooth. With the patient under general anesthesia, the structure was removed. On gross inspection, the structure was identified as a tooth with a rhinolith attached to the surface of its root. Microscopic examination revealed normal dentin and pulp tissue. A nonspecific inflammatory infiltrate was observed around the rhinolith, and areas of regular and irregular mineralization were seen. Some mineralized areas exhibited melanin-like brownish pigmentation. Areas of mucus with deposits of mineral salts were also observed. Rare cases of an intranasal tooth associated with a rhinolith have been described in the literature. We believe that this case represents only the second published report of an intranasal tooth associated with a rhinolith in a patient with cleft lip and palate.
Abnormal dilation of a normal anterior jugular vein is a rare anomaly and usually presents as a neck lump. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature of such a case in which the patient presented with severe tinnitus. Excision of the dilated portion of the anterior jugular vein in our patient alleviated the severe tinnitus.
The potential for aberrant anatomy in the neck should be respected in order to avoid unexpected and potentially devastating injury during surgical and other procedures. Anatomic variations involving the internal carotid artery are believed to exist in as much as 6% of the population. We describe a case of a tortuous internal carotid artery that was found in zone IIb during a neck dissection in a 60-year-old man, and we discuss the implications of this anomaly.
Congenital agenesis of the parotid gland is rare, and its association with accessory parotid tissue is even rarer. We report an unusual case of unilateral agenesis of the left parotid gland associated with pleomorphic adenoma of the left accessory parotid gland. To best of our knowledge, this is only the second such published case in the literature.
Superior semicircular canal dehiscence and an abnormally wide internal auditory meatus are clinical entities characterized by vestibular and cochlear symptoms. These symptoms are induced by hypersensitivity of labyrinthine receptors secondary to a bone defect of the otic capsule. We report the case of a 41-year-old man with congenital right-sided hearing loss who presented with bilateral superior semicircular canal dehiscence that was associated with wide, bulbous internal auditory meatus and a loss of the bony wall separating the lateral end of the meatus from the cochlea. The patient was experiencing vestibular and cochlear symptoms in the right ear and disabling tinnitus in the left ear. However, he refused all treatment and was lost to follow-up.
We report our assessment of the effectiveness of bipolar radiofrequency-induced interstitial thermoablation (BRIT) for the treatment of certain oral cavity vascular malformations in 5 children. Two of these patients had lymphangiomatous macroglossia (LM), 1 had lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC), and 2 had a venous malformation (VM). Each patient underwent BRIT at least twice; treatment was delivered at 4- to 8-week intervals according to each patient's circumstances. The 2 patients with LM required three treatment sessions; although their tongue volume decreased after each session, both still required a partial glossectomy to achieve a satisfactory reduction in volume. The patient with LC underwent two BRIT treatments, which reduced the size of the lesion by half; the remainder was excised. The 2 patients with a VM (1 buccal and 1 lingual) responded well to BRIT, and their malformations almost completely disappeared. Our early results with BRIT suggest that it is an effective treatment for oral cavity vascular malformations-more so for patients with venous rather than lymphangiomatous lesions.
Branchial cleft fistulae are rare congenital anomalies that arise from the abnormal persistence of branchial remnants. Branchial arch anomalies are rare. They usually present as a lateral neck mass or abscess in the form of acute suppurative thyroiditis. A complete fistula of the third arch is extremely rare. We describe such a case in a 13-year-old girl who presented with a small opening in the left lower neck, from which a mucoid discharge had been present since birth. The fistula was accompanied by recurrent neck swelling. Computed tomography with contrast injection into the external skin opening revealed a continuous tract that extended to the base of the piriform sinus. Total excision of the tract up to the piriform sinus with a left hemithyroidectomy was performed. At follow-up 28 months postoperatively, the patient exhibited no evidence of recurrence.
Spontaneous temporal meningoencephaloceles are unusual. When they do occur, they present with a variety of signs and symptoms, which can make diagnosis and management challenging. We report the interesting case of a 49-year-old woman with bilateral congenital temporal meningoencephaloceles. She presented with a 12-month history of bilateral fluctuating hearing loss, and she more recently developed right-sided acute otitis media with meningitis. The presentation of bilateral extensive tegmental defects and meningoencephaloceles with a fluctuating hearing loss and meningitis associated with acute otitis media affecting one ear and then subsequently the other ear is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. It requires a very careful clinical and radiologic assessment. Methods of surgical repair differ depending on the size of the defects.

Great coat and cute
posted 7 years ago
this is a great little coat, I like that it is so easy to get on and off, no putting in their little legs first. My little wire terrier mix looks so dapper in the coat and it keeps her warm also.
Pros: easy on and off
Cons: not machine washable

Hi everyone! I'm currently breastfeeding and I drink about 4 litres a day and usually pretty thirsty. Today I drank over 4 litres and my lips are dry, my mouth is dry and I'm yearning for some more water! I don't understand. Nothing is quenching my thirst and it's driving me nuts!
Any ideas why this is happening :(?
You might want to get your thyroid checked and get checked for diabetes too.
i am extremely thirsty while breastfeeding too but it can't hurt to make sure there are no underlying issues.

CV & Portfolio
What do you want in an architect? R E With great passion for design and extreme dedication to the enrichment and advancement of the built environment, particularly as it manifests into the physical through the architectural development process. Whether via pencil and trace, or utilizing the most advanced modeling and presentation technology, always investigating new ways to explore the possible and realize the visionary on every achievable level: but without losing sight of the practical needs of the project and most importantly, the people for whom it is intended to serve. DESIGN? Where it all begins... Great design is not an option: it's an obligation.... Application of sustainable building practices with applied and continued research and implementation (including but by no means limited to LEED certification) is a crucial priority. Working on numerous projects designed to, or in process of attaining various levels of LEED certification has helped develop an in depth understanding of the USGBC rating system. But more importantly, extensive research on the subject of sustainable practice, while also spearheading `Net-Zero' R&D studies has provided substantial insight into how to apply and actually realize principles of truly sustainable architectural practice; which has been a deep rooted passion - long before accepted into the mainstream. SUSTAINABILITY? How we move forward... It's a necessity: for the profession and for us all.. Did someone say BIM? Development of BIM technology, as well as the application of the most current software and toolsets has always been at the forefront. As project architect for numerous successful projects: contract documentation along with the research and implementation of the most current building technologies has become second nature. TOOLS? How it all gets done... Better technology, properly utilized: makes better projects... TOOLKIT: Revit Architecture - Advanced Expertise: Design/ BIM/ Visualization/ Rendering/ Document Production Photoshop - Advanced image manipulation and rendering 3D-S Max | Vectorworks | Rhino - Proficiency: modeling and rendering Navisworks | Bentley Navigator Proficiency: Navigation/ Analysis/ Coordination/ Conflict resolution Ecotect Analysis - Proficiency: Daylighting/ Solar Radiation/ Thermal/ Energy analysis Sketch-Up - Proficiency: modeling and presentation AutoCAD � Expertise: CD's/ presentation/ M-Color SpecLink/ e-Specs � Expertise: Specification & project manual production and coordination MS Office | Project | Newforma � Advanced proficiency: reports/ presentation/ schedules/ management Although always focused in finding every opportunity to elevate design throughout the course of any given project (from concept to detailing), over the years strong skills in all aspects of project and client management, programming, consultant and internal team coordination, document production and contract administration have continued to be developed. It's never enough to just keep status quo: above and beyond is where the bar is set. MANAGEMENT? Process, Organization and Responsibility...

The home-based customer service industry is exploding, which means the need for people to answer inbound phone calls for big businesses from the privacy of their home offices, instead of overseas, or in traditional call centers, is greater than ever.
The three companies we have focused on — Alpine Access, Arise and LiveOps — tell us that they will hire 10,000 more agents combined, between now and December, to prepare for the holiday rush and new clients signing on.
In addition to being a self-starter with strong customer service skills and computer proficiency, there are some specific skills currently in big demand. Companies look for bilingual agents, health-care agents, licensed insurance agents and tech support. Exceptional sales and customer service experience continue to be in high demand, as well.
Agents earn between $8 and $20 an hour, sometimes higher for specialized skills and for commission incentives. You are responsible for providing and maintaining your own computer, land line and high-speed Internet service, just as you would for any home-based business. Those costs are not covered or reimbursed.
There are some key tips and tricks to keep in mind to get hired.
Treat virtual interviews just like in-person interviews. You can't be any less professional, just because you're not sitting across the desk from an interviewer. No background noise — like crying babies, barking dogs or TV.
The interviewer is judging your phone and typing manner, because your voice will be the virtual face of the company. Give yourself 60 minutes of uninterrupted time to do it right.
Practice the scripts. The decision makers tell me that one place where people stumble during the application process is the voice test. Applicants are required to read a script with enthusiasm, which can be very difficult.
If they can't do it effectively, they're often rejected. Here are two sample scripts used during the application process, so try them — and perfect them — on your own before applying:
"As a thank you for purchasing the Mini Oven today, Widget Company has a very special offer that includes additional accessories for your Mini Oven that you wouldn't want to be without! This accessory package includes two additional nonstick baskets and the nonstick Round Rib basket.
"We are also including a 240-page cookbook with over 200 mouth-watering recipes for your Mini Oven. This accessory package has a value of $162, but you can have this package today for only $39.95." (Courtesy of LiveOps)
"Thank you for calling the Auto Center. How may I help you? You are locked out of your car? Oh, I am sorry to hear that. May I ask for your membership number? Thank you, Mr. Brown. May I have the year, make and model of your vehicle, and where you are located? A dispatcher will contact you within 15 minutes with an estimated time of arrival. Is there anything else I can help you with, Mr. Brown? Thank you for calling the Auto Center." (Courtesy of Arise Virtual Solutions)
Be flexible about scheduling. Express a willingness to work at least 15 hours a week, and be willing to start on nights and weekends. Offering to take the less popular shifts makes you more attractive to a prospective employer. Once you've proven your abilities, you should be able to improve your schedule. But first, get your foot in the door.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas - No. 10 Southeastern closed out its season-opening trip to San Antonio, Texas, with a split on Monday afternoon at the St. Mary's Tournament, first downing Texas A&M-International 7-2 before falling to St. Edward's 4-2 in the finale.
The Savage Storm move to 3-2 overall on the season heading into its own Southeastern Regional Invitational schedule for Feb. 7-9 at the Durant Multi-Sport Complex in Durant, Okla.
In the day-three opener SE rapped out 12 hits and mounted a 5-0 lead that they never looked back on.
Sydney Kramer, Lacie Cook and Laramie Beal each collected a pair of hits, with Beal and Darrian Williams each adding a pair of RBI. Courtney Riddle and Mindy McElroy each drove in a run of their own.
McElroy picked up the win after tossing 5.1 innings and allowing a pair of unearned runs on eight hits with three strikeouts.
Jacee Bennett came on for the save and tossed 1.2 innings and allowed just one hit.
A second-inning Williams double put the first runs on the board as Raachel Jones and McElroy scored on the play in the second inning, while a two-run single by Beal and an RBI single by McElroy would push the lead to 5-0 in the third inning.
TAMIU took advantage of an SE error in the fifth inning to pick up a pair of runs, but the Storm added two more insurance runs in the top of the seventh inning, the first on a Riddle RBI single and the second thanks to an error which allowed Arianna Jones to score and set the final score at 7-2.
In the finale, Kramer turned in a three-hit outing, with Simmons and Beal each adding a pair of hits as the Storm piled up nine hits.
In the circle, Shayna Milam was saddled with the loss after allowing three runs on seven hits in 1.2 innings of work.
Hosanna McCoy threw 1.1 innings in relief and did not allow a run before Bennett came on to toss the final 3.0 innings and allowed a run on three hits.
SEU got a two-run single by KP Perch in the first and a solo homer by Emily Mayfield in the second to mount a 3-0 lead.
A Beal double plated Shaina Crites in the fourth and a throwing error on a Lacie Cook bunt would allow Simmons to score to cut the deficit to 3-2.
The Hilltoppers, however, would add another run in the sixth to take a 4-2 edge.
Simmons and Kramer would put together back-to-back one-out singles in the top of the seventh, but SE was unable to get the rally going and bring them in.

I put the exposed sheets into glassine envelopes before firing them into an old film box. In order to know what kind of development each neg gets, I first cut notches into the envelopes edge...one notch for N development, two notches for +1, etc. I guess I could have a box for each kind of developing, but there's only so much room in my backpack and the glassine stops the negatives from rubbing against each other.
Location, date, lens, film holder number, exposure information, and a rough sketch of the scene are also jotted down on the glassine envelope at the time of exposure.

What an incredibly beautiful jungle it is! Not just the verdant greenery -- also the chocolate-colored muscle-macho Pero Boteino who stands beating his enormous meat -- hungry for company from any one of the bazillion Brazilian boys lurking behind the tangled mass of trees! Sun-kissed blonde beauty Pero Coresma ends up being the lucky bottom. First, they're joined in their cliffside jungle nook by Latin super-beauty Denis Torres, who constantly keeps a vigilant eye, even as he gets power-blown by the blonde Brazilian studmuffin. After swallowing and choking on his dark top's human anaconda, Pero Coresma squirms his eager ass up and down the entire length of Pero Boteino's impressive donkey-dick. After the black beauty awards his bottom with a juicy load of cum, he runs away into the jungle leaving blondie and the Latin supermodel to deposit their sweaty loads all over the jungle brush!

SearchRev acquisition moves AKQA one step closer to being a more diversified marketing services company.
Amidst the popping of champagne corks at the SearchRev booth at SES San Jose yesterday, SearchRev announced it has been acquired by online marketing firm AKQA for an undisclosed sum.
The search engine marketing company will remain a separate division within AKQA and will work with the agencies' approximately 40 clients "to enhance their search marketing advertising, which will in turn enhance all of their advertising," said Eduardo Llach, CRO, CMO and co-founder of SearchRev, at the show.
"What this acquisition is saying is brand advertising needs search advertising. For all your advertising, you need to figure out and get the search working well. If you do that, everything else you do will be working better. If you don't then you're wasting money on anything else you're doing," said Llach. "You have to nail down and get the search advertising optimized for your branded terms."
The acquisition is a step forward in AKQA's battle plan to create a "next generation creative agency" which will include further acquisitions and an expectation of the company going public next year, Llach said. AKQA had a majority stake taken by General Atlantic earlier this year, and it's expected that the company is attempting to follow in aQuantive's footsteps, by collecting technology and services for a combined marketing solution.
"For us, it's about building a next-generation digital marketing agency that our customers are going to be trusting with more and more work and deeper relationships," said Bedecarre. "We think that is going to create a lot of value. By next year, we are going to be of a size that it will be very attractive to be a public company." The CEO insisted he is not trying to build AKQA in order to have it gobbled up by a bigger fish like the Microsoft acquisition of aQuantive, which resulted in the formation of an Advertiser and Publisher Solutions Group.
With the addition of a search platform and goals of future acquisitions, AKQA addresses issues of conflict of interests. While this is especially problematic when publishers acquire ad agencies, it's also something AKQA might face with the SearchRev deal. Because SearchRev sells its SEM optimization software to other agencies, AKQA is being careful to erect a wall of separation. In announcing the acquisition, AKQA stressed that SearchRev will remain semi-independent and continue "providing professional services and technology licenses to both advertisers and agencies" other than AKQA. SearchRev will continue to be based in its offices in Palo Alto, CA.
"I think its important for SearchRev to be a stand-alone business because it's a company that developed a software tool to optimize search and, in addition to marketing that to clients... they also license the tool to other agencies," AKQA CEO Tom Bedecarre said. "It's a similar situation to when aQuantive owned Atlas and they were selling the Atlas tool to agencies that were competitive to Razorfish. We want to make sure the platform and technology part of the business is separate and distinct."
Bedecarre acknowledged that "the lines are blurring between who's doing what for whom," when it comes to publishers, networks and agencies, but it shouldn't disrupt the success of his company.
He said SearchRev is a perfect fit for AKQA and, in a statement discussing the acquisition Bedecarre said the deal announcing the deal is AKQA's "first step in creating the next generation digital marketing services network." Bedecarre said SEM will be a major ingredient of that process. "AKQA has been focused on large global advertisers as our clients and what we've found is that search is an increasingly important part of the mix for large, global advertisers," he said.
According to AKQA, SearchRev's technology consistently doubles its client's revenues and increases their profits by an average of 52 percent. In addition to licensing its SEM tools, the Silicon Valley company also manages big SEM campaigns Coca-Cola, Yahoo, Shutterfly, Real Networks, Safeway and other large enterprises.
SearchRev and AKQA were introduced through their mutual customer Coca-Cola, as the agency was tasked with interactive advertising for Coke, while SearchRev worked on optimizing the MyCokeRewards campaign, said Llach.
"What happened was before we came in [Coke] didn't have a search campaign set up directly. We tripled the number of people that registered for their site, through their branded terms," he said.Additional reporting contributed by Fred Aun.
