What should cancer survivors know about hearing loss?
The first Sunday in June marks National Cancer Survivors Day®, a day for great celebration, inspiration, and support for the many people who have survived cancer, along with their families, friends, and communities.
It is also a day to promote awareness of the ongoing challenges that cancer survivors face, as well as a time to provide resources so they can continue to enjoy fulfilling lives.
If you have experienced cancer and cancer treatment, the Better Hearing Institute (BHI) encourages you to take our free, confidential, online hearing check to help determine if you need a comprehensive hearing test by a hearing healthcare professional.
Certain chemotherapy medications and radiation therapy treatments for certain cancers may damage healthy cochlear hair cells found in the inner ear and result in hearing loss.
Fortunately, the vast majority of people with hearing loss can benefit from hearing aids. And research shows that people with hearing loss who use hearing aids enjoy a better overall quality of life and are more likely to be optimistic and feel engaged in life.
So please, take the BHI Hearing Check today.

Other Questions & Answers Below:
Why is it better to treat hearing loss sooner rather than later?
Identifying and addressing hearing loss early brings many benefits. From enhancing your quality of life, to helping protect against several health consequences linked to unaddressed hearing loss, the case for early treatment is strong.
Perhaps the most compelling reason to never put off a hearing test and treatment, however is simply this: We "hear" with our brain, not with our ears. When we have a hearing loss, the connections in the brain that respond to sound become reorganized.
Fortunately, for many people, hearing aids can provide the sound stimulation needed for the brain to restore the normal organization of connections to its "sound center" so it can more readily react to the sounds that it had been missing and cognitively process them.
In fact, the vast majority of people with hearing loss can benefit from hearing aids. And dramatic new technological advances have completely transformed hearing aids in recent years, making them more effective, comfortable, and easy to use. So the sooner you identify hearing loss and start using professionally fitted hearing aids if recommended by a hearing healthcare professional, the sooner you'll begin to reap the rewards of better hearing.
The benefits of early treatment on quality of life and health
For many years, experts have known the positive impact that addressing hearing loss has on quality of life. Research shows that many people with hearing loss who use hearing aids see an improvement in their ability to hear in many settings; and many see an improvement in their relationships at home and at work, in their social lives, and in their ability to communicate effectively in most situations. Many even say they feel better about themselves and life overall.
More recently, however, researchers are discovering a significant link between hearing loss and other health issues, such as cognition, dementia, depression, falling, hospitalization, mortality, and overall physical and mental health.
To get a fuller sense of why it's so important to treat hearing loss sooner rather than later, just consider the latest research on hearing loss and these seven health issues:
- Cognition: According to Brandeis University Professor of Neuroscience, Dr. Arthur Wingfield, who has been studying cognitive aging and the relationship between memory and hearing acuity, unaddressed hearing loss not only affects the listener's ability to "hear" the sound accurately, but it also affects higher-level cognitive functioning. Specifically, it interferes with the listener's ability to accurately process the auditory information and make sense of it. For instance, in one study, Wingfield and his co-investigators found that older adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss performed poorer on cognitive tests than those of the same age who had good hearing. According to Wingfield, "The sharpness of an individual's hearing has cascading consequences for various aspects of cognitive function. Even if you have just a mild hearing loss that is not being treated, cognitive load increases significantly. You have to put in so much effort just to perceive and understand what is being said that you divert resources away from storing what you have heard into your memory."
- Risk of dementia: A study by researchers at Johns Hopkins and the National Institute on Aging found that seniors with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop dementia over time than those who retain their hearing. Another study, by hearing experts at Johns Hopkins, found that older adults with hearing loss are more likely to develop problems thinking and remembering than older adults whose hearing is normal.
- Brain shrinkage: Results of a study by researchers from Johns Hopkins and the National Institute on Aging found that although the brain becomes smaller with age, the shrinkage seems to be fast-tracked in older adults with hearing loss. Another study, conducted by Brandeis University Professor of Neuroscience, Dr. Arthur Wingfield, along with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania and Washington University in St. Louis, has used MRI to look at the effect that hearing loss has on both brain activity and structure. Their study found that people with poorer hearing had less gray matter in the auditory cortex, a region of the brain that is necessary to support speech comprehension. Wingfield has suggested the possibility that the participants' hearing loss had a causal role. He and his co-investigators hypothesize that when the sensory stimulation is reduced due to hearing loss, corresponding areas of the brain reorganize their activity as a result.
- Risk of falling: A Johns Hopkins study showed that people in middle age (40-69) with even just mild hearing loss were nearly three times more likely to have a history of falling. The intensive listening effort demanded by unaddressed hearing loss may take cognitive resources away from what is needed for balance and gait, experts have suggested.
- Increased hospitalizations: A Johns Hopkins study found that older adults with hearing loss were 32 percent more likely to have been admitted to a hospital than their peers with normal hearing. The study also found that older adults with hearing loss were 36 percent more likely to have prolonged stretches of illness or injury (lasting more than 10 days).
- Mortality: One National Institutes of Health-supported study of older people even found that hearing loss is tied to greater risk of dying for older men from any cause and particularly from cardiovascular causes. The same study found that men and women who used hearing aids, although they were older and had more severe hearing loss, had significantly lower mortality risk compared with hearing impaired men and women who did not use hearing aids.
- Depression: Several studies have found a link between depression and hearing loss. A Johns Hopkins study found that older adults with hearing loss were 57 percent more likely to have deep episodes of stress, depression or bad mood than their peers with normal hearing. Another study showed that hearing loss is associated with an increased risk of depression in adults of all ages, but is most pronounced in 18 to 69 year olds. Another study, conducted in Italy, looked at working adults—35 to 55 years of age—with untreated mild to moderate age-related hearing loss and found that they were more prone to depression, anxiety, and interpersonal sensitivity than those with no hearing problems.
How does treating hearing loss help with stress?
The intensive listening effort demanded by untreated hearing loss can be extremely stressful.
Experts believe that even if you have just a mild hearing loss that is not being treated, cognitive load increases significantly.
Research shows that when left unaddressed, hearing loss is frequently associated with other physical, mental, and emotional health issues that diminish quality of life.
Withdrawal from social situations, a lessened ability to cope, and reduced overall psychological health are just some of the conditions associated with unaddressed hearing loss. Often, people with untreated hearing loss feel angry, frustrated, anxious, isolated, and depressed.
A 2014 study, in fact, showed that hearing loss is associated with an increased risk of depression in adults of all ages, but is most pronounced in 18 to 69 year olds. Another study, conducted in Italy, looked at working adults—35 to 55 years of age—with untreated mild to moderate age-related hearing loss and found that they were more prone to depression, anxiety, and interpersonal sensitivity than those with no hearing problems.
The good news is that for the vast majority of people with hearing loss, hearing aids can help. In fact, research shows that most people with hearing loss who use hearing aids see improvements in their ability to communicate effectively in most situations.
When people with hearing loss use hearing aids, their mental health often rallies and depressive symptoms are often reduced. Many people regain emotional stability; have an easier time joining in groups and become more socially engaged; experience a greater sense of safety and independence; feel more in control of their lives; and see a general improvement in their overall quality of life. Many even report improvements in their relationships at home and at work.
Simply, the majority of hearing aid users say they're satisfied with the changes that have occurred in their lives due to their hearing aids. And many say they feel better about themselves and life overall as a result.
Getting a hearing test and using professionally fitted hearing aids—when recommended by a hearing healthcare professional—is an important way for people with hearing loss to ease the stress associated with intensive listening and to safeguard their mental health and quality of life.

Why is it so important to get routine hearing tests if I have diabetes?
Research shows that people with diabetes are about twice as likely to develop hearing loss.
Yet hearing tests are frequently overlooked in routine diabetes care. In fact, some experts believe that hearing loss may be an under-recognized complication of diabetes. http://ow.ly/DuVyB
A meta-analysis of 13 different studies found that younger people with diabetes were at an even greater risk of hearing loss. Those with diabetes who were older than 60 were 1.58 times more likely to have hearing loss. But the risk jumped to 2.61 times higher for those 60 and younger. http://ow.ly/DpXDv
Another study, by researchers at Henry Ford Hospital, found that women between the ages of 60 and 75 with well-controlled diabetes had better hearing than women whose diabetes was poorly controlled, shedding light on the importance of keeping diabetes under control to maintain healthy hearing. http://ow.ly/DCB8K
Still another study, of patients from a large primary care clinic in the United Kingdom, found that hearing loss is prevalent among people with diabetes and has a strong association with peripheral neuropathy. The hearing loss group in that study had almost twice the rate of at-risk feet. http://ow.ly/KBYFd
BHI strongly encourages people with diabetes to include regular hearing tests as part of their routine diabetes care. Unrecognized and/or unaddressed hearing loss can interfere with good diabetes management by posing a barrier to good communications between people with diabetes and their doctors. What's more, untreated hearing loss is often associated with other significant physical, mental, and emotional health conditions.
To help you take the first step, BHI has a free, quick, and confidential online hearing check. Anyone can take the confidential online survey to determine if they need a comprehensive hearing test by a hearing healthcare professional.
Research shows that when people address hearing loss, their quality of life often improves. Eight out of 10 hearing aid users, in fact, say they're satisfied with the changes that have occurred in their lives due to their hearing aids—from how they feel about themselves to the positive changes they see in their relationships, social interactions, and work lives.
5 Habits for Healthier Hearing for People with Diabetes
To help protect your hearing, be sure to follow these five healthy habits:
- Get a thorough hearing exam every year and watch for signs of hearing loss. You do it for your eyes. Now do it for your ears. Be sure to see a hearing healthcare professional every year for a thorough hearing examination. If you notice a change in your ability to hear under certain conditions—like at a restaurant or on a conference call—go sooner. And share the information with your primary care physician and endocrinologist.
- Use hearing aids, if recommended. People often compensate for hearing difficulty by turning up the volume to unhealthy levels, which in turn can cause further hearing damage. While hearing loss is not reversible, today's hearing aids can dramatically enhance your ability to hear and engage with others—which can make a tremendous difference in your overall quality of life. Hearing aid technology has advanced radically in recent years. Many hearing aids are virtually invisible, sitting discreetly and comfortably inside the ear canal. They adjust to all kinds of noise environments and pick up sound from all directions. Best of all, many are wireless. Today's hearing aids can stream sound directly from your smartphone, home entertainment system, and other electronics directly into the hearing aid itself—at volumes just right for you. Some are even waterproof.
- Keep your blood sugar under control. Just as your heart, eye, and nerve health are affected by your blood sugar levels, your hearing health may be as well. Work with your doctor to monitor your blood sugar and take appropriate medicines as prescribed.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Even for people without diabetes, a healthy lifestyle benefits hearing health. Not smoking, exercising, and maintaining a healthy diet all support your ability to hear. In fact, studies show that smoking and obesity may increase the risk of hearing loss, while regular physical activity seems to help protect against it. http://ow.ly/DbkDZ; http://ow.ly/DbkT9; http://ow.ly/Dbldc
- Use ear protection. Everyone is at risk of noise-induced hearing loss. But using ear protection is one of the best—and simplest—things you can do to preserve your hearing. Carry disposable earplugs with you, especially when you know you'll be somewhere noisy. Use appropriate ear protection in loud work environments. Keep the volume on smartphones and other electronics low. Limit your use of headphones and ear buds. And get in the habit of quickly plugging your ears with your fingers and walking away if a loud noise takes you by surprise. Most of all, limit your time in noisy environments.
What's the link between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hearing loss?
A team of Australian researchers found that older adults with moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a higher prevalence of hearing loss than those of the same age without CKD, according to a study published in the American Journal of Kidney Diseases and highlighted on the National Kidney Foundation website.
The researchers assessed more than 2,900 people aged 50 and older, including 513 with moderate CKD. More than 54 percent of those with CKD reported some level of hearing loss compared to only 28 percent of the rest of the group. Nearly 30 percent of the CKD participants showed severe hearing loss compared with only 10 percent of the non-CKD participants.
According to study author, David C. Harris, structural and functional similarities between tissues in the inner ear and in the kidney may explain the link between moderate chronic kidney disease and hearing loss. He also said that toxins that accumulate in kidney failure can damage nerves, including those in the inner ear, according to the National Kidney Foundation's website.
BHI believes that hearing tests by a hearing care professional should be a routine part of the medical care for people with kidney disease to help optimize their quality of life.

2015 New Year's Resolutions: How can getting my hearing tested make 2015 a better year for me?
If you want to make a New Year's resolution that will really boost your life and well-being throughout all of 2015, then get your hearing tested.
Addressing hearing loss can add to quality of life in many ways. Here's a short-list of what getting a hearing test and using professionally fitted hearing aids, if recommended by a hearing care professional, may do for you:
- Strengthen ties with family and friends. Healthy relationships rest largely on good communication. In one BHI study, more than half the respondents said using hearing aids improved their relationships at home, their social lives, and their ability to join in groups. Many even saw improvements in their romance.
- Raise your spirits. People with untreated hearing loss often feel angry, frustrated, anxious, isolated, and depressed. But research shows that when they use hearing aids, many become more socially engaged, feel a greater sense of safety and independence, and see a general improvement in their overall quality of life.
- Lead you to feel better about yourself. An important perk of using hearing aids can be enhanced emotional well-being. Research shows that when people with hearing loss use hearing aids, many feel more in control of their lives and less self-critical. One BHI study found that the majority of people with mild and severe hearing loss felt better about themselves and life overall as a result of using hearing aids.
- Keep your mind sharp. Studies out of Johns Hopkins linked hearing loss with accelerated cognitive decline in older adults and found that seniors with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop dementia over time. BHI studies found that many people with hearing loss report improvements in their cognitive skills with the use of hearing aids.
- Unleash your earning potential. Hearing your best at work helps you do your best. One study found that using hearing aids reduced the risk of income loss by 90 to 100 percent for those with milder hearing loss, and from 65 to 77 percent for those with severe to moderate hearing loss. And people with hearing loss who use hearing aids are more likely to be employed than their peers who don't.
So go ahead. Click here to take a free, quick, and confidential online hearing check to determine if you need a comprehensive hearing test by a hearing healthcare professional. And let us be the first to congratulate you on your motivation and determination. You've taken the first step on the road to better hearing and to securing a better quality of life for yourself in 2015.

Iconic majorette Marion Caster Baker dies at 86
With her exuberance, energy and magnetic personality, Marion Caster Baker was something of a local star in the 1940s and '50s as a drum majorette and model who strutted and twirled her baton at Rose Bowl parades, half-time performances on football fields and at USO shows.
The former San Diego State majorette was reportedly the inspiration for the iconic neon sign that has adorned San Diego's landscape for more than half a century. The landmark outline of a majorette wearing an Aztec headdress graced the College Area Campus Drive-In for many years and was later moved to the College Grove Shopping Center.
Mrs. Baker often performed for returning troops with the U.S. Marine Corps Band at the foot of the Broadway Pier, and her reputation as a top Southern California majorette garnered her much publicity with photos in publications from Los Angeles to New York. A photo from a January 1953 edition of The Arizona Republic shows her doing the splits in a shimmery, fringed costume during a half-time performance with the San Diego Naval Training Center band at a Salad Bowl game.
Mrs. Baker died of Alzheimer's disease March 25 at her San Diego home. She was 86.
After many years of entertaining audiences with her routines, Mrs. Baker taught dance and fitness classes and helped her husband, Lloyd, run businesses in San Diego and Aspen. She was active with the San Diego Swing Dance Club and the Angels of Aseltine philanthropic organization.
"She was driven; she should have been a star," said longtime friend and former fellow majorette Barbara Schmidt Chrestman. "She was an amazing person … very kind, very generous … oriented toward success."
Friends and family said Mrs. Baker was an advocate of physical fitness and good nutrition decades before the health craze prompted the general public to join gyms and be mindful of calorie intake.
"She was leading dance aerobics classes to music before there was a name for that," said her stepson Greg Baker. He said Mrs. Baker was one of the first people in San Diego to lead such classes. "She was into nutrition and keeping the cholesterol down since the 1950s," he said. She and her husband ran Lloyd's Music City in downtown San Diego from about 1955 to the early 1960s. The business included a record store, gym and upstairs dance studio.
In a 1952 interview with The San Diego Union, Mrs. Baker, who was then known as Marion Heatherly, said she was "skinny and anemic" when she moved to California as a child in 1935, She said she was soon a regular at Mission Beach, where she learned to swim under the tutelage of Florence Chadwick, who became the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. She took third place at the 1948 Miss Muscle Beach contest in Santa Monica, performed with Buster Crabbe's Acquacade show in Hawaii and appeared in two films with George Eiferman, a former Mr. America and Mr. Universe.
She was born Dec. 7, 1924, in Buffalo, N.Y., to Helen Chazen and Fred Caster. The family moved to San Diego and she attended Horace Mann Junior High and San Diego High School, where she was a majorette. She went on to twirl her baton and major in social science at what was then San Diego State College.

A Frankfort woman who works with paroled women wants to open a halfway house near Oneida Square.
Some neighbors are outraged by the plan, claiming it will drag down property values and bring criminals to a residential neighborhood.
A Frankfort woman who works with paroled women wants to open a halfway house near Oneida Square.
Some neighbors are outraged by the plan, claiming it will drag down property values and bring criminals to a residential neighborhood.
Shawn Luther, who works at Oneida County jail, wants to turn the former Tsar dental office at 1310 Genesee St. into a halfway house for female parolees.
The building is ideal for the project because it already is outfitted for apartments, is near other social services and a bus line, Luther said.
"There definitely is a need in the area," she said. "There are other women's shelters in the area, but they're almost always full."
Residents in the area say they understand there might be a need, but they don't want the shelter in their neighborhood.
Bringing in a halfway house will hurt their property values and bring criminals to an area residents have worked hard to clean up, said Mark Ford, owner of ShipRite Software.
"This is a residential neighborhood," he said. "There is no upside that I can think of. It will bring people that we don't want here."
A homeless shelter or women's halfway house would set the neighborhood back and stunt development in a growing area of the city, said James Commerford, who lives on Tracy Street.
"You'd have people passing through who are drug abusers and criminals," he said. "People are buying homes and opening businesses here. The city spent $3 million on the roundabout. It can't possibly be good for the neighborhood."
The proposed site is an 8,750-square-foot building zoned for offices or apartments. Val Tsur-Tsar, who moved his practice to New Hartford earlier this year and now lives in Florida, could not immediately be reached for comment.
Luther said the first floor of the building would be an emergency homeless shelter for women while the second and third floors would be rented to women recently released from prison.
Luther must receive a special-use permit from the city's Zoning Board of Appeals. It was not clear whether the permit would be on the agenda for Tuesday's board meeting. The city was waiting to hear from the real estate company handling the property before definitely adding it to the agenda.
Luther said she is not working with any local nonprofit or outside agency but is undertaking the project on her own.
"I just love working with this population," she said.

Art Stapleton reports that Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw will miss Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Bradshaw has been bothered by a number of injuries for weeks now, but he was having a hard time throughout the week, so this news is exactly all that surprising. With Bradshaw out, David Wilson figures to see a large workload against an Atlanta defense that hasn't been all that good against the run. Kregg Lumpkin should also see some amount of carries as well.

Tortorella: Perrin, Janik have Secured Roster Spots

Tampa Bay Lightning
WDAE radio in Tampa
is reporting
Eric Perrin
has made the Lightning's opening day roster. "The sonofabitch has made the team," said Lightning Head Coach Tortorella, using the term as affectionaly as it can be used to describe Perrin. In fact, Tortorella told the press that for tonight's game, Perrin, thought to be a candidate for no better than the third forward line, will be placed with
Vincent Lecavalier
and Vinny Prospal against Detroit. ALSO: In
Erik Erlendsson's Blog
on the Trib site, he says that
Doug Janik
has also earned a roster spot and Andy Delmore could be put through waivers. Erlendsson also speculates that first-year pro
Matt Smaby
may have passed Delmore on the depth chart.

Ryan Craig

Martin St. Louis
had 2 helpers. The other Lightning goal scorers were
Eric Perrin
Filip Kuba
, with Dan Boyle chipping in a single assist. The power play continued to yield dividends going 3 for 10 on the night. An interesting subplot in the game was the opportunity opened up for young defenseman [url=matt-smaby]
Matt Smaby
[/url] as
Doug Janik
sat in the penalty box for much of the first half of the game serving a major for fighting, a minor for instigation and a ten minute misconduct. Also, Dan Boyle was held out of the game in the third period with an undisclosed injury leaving Smaby to play 18:53 with a -1 rating, 1 hit and 1 blocked shot. Smaby was on the ice for the overtime winning goal, but reportedly played well otherwise. With more playing time, is Smaby sneaking up on Janik on the depth chart? Janik played 16:41 of even hockey with 2 shots, 1 hit and 3 blocked shots. Perrin plated 19:19 and was -1 with 3 shots, 1 hit and 2 blocked shots as well as an outstanding 4 takeaways, but was only 25% on draws. [url=norm-milley]Norm Milley[/url] had his poorest game statistically of the preseason going -2 in 15:13 with 1 shot and 2 hits.

Blair Jones
[/url] was -1 in 9:56 with 1 blocked shot and was 27% on draws.

continued his strategy of brawling his way onto the Lightning roster with a fight in his 8:43 of even hockey with 3 hits. So, with [url=paul-ranger]
Paul Ranger
[/url] still out on the blueline and Dan Boyle possibly nicked could Doug Janik or Matt Smaby sneak onto the opening night roster? In the fight for the team's open 4th line forward spot, has Norm Milley stumbled and lost ground to the skilled Eric Perrin or the tough young lion Nick Tarnasky? Also, how does Rob DiMaio's concussion tonight figure into the equation. Cuts to follow soon. Note: Jones and goaltender

Burke Placed on Waivers; Jones and Ramo Join Bolts
Submitted by chad on September 25, 2006 - 15:08
Tampa Bay Lightning
TSN is reporting Lightning goalie Sean Burke
has been placed on waivers
. Burke, 39, is contracted to earn $1.6-million this season, but is coming off a 2005-2006 season when he posted a 2.80 goals against average and .895 save percentage in 35 games with the Lightning. The Lightning have been pretty clear about entering the season with Marc Denis as the No.1 and
Johan Holmqvist
as the No.2. According to
Erik Erlendsson's Blog
on the [i]Tampa Tribune[/i] site, Burke is indeed expected to report to Springfield if unclaimed. The hope is another team claims him and relieves the Lightning of at least some of the $1.6 million Burke is owed this season. Assuming no team claims Burke, Tampa Bay will then recall him and hope he is claimed on the way "up." The advantage in claiming him at this time is the claiming team would only be responsible for one-half the salary and take on one-half the cap hit and the same for the Lightning. If he reports to Springfield, Burke will join
Karri Ramo
Jonathan Boutin
Gerald Coleman
, and Morgan Cey, who are currently battling it out for right to stay in Springfield. Ramo is accompanying the Lightning to Montreal this week as Denis will not make the trip. Erlendsson reports center
Blair Jones
has also been recalled as a substitute for Andreas Karlsson, who is battling "groin fatigue." Prospects
Matt Smaby
Nick Tarnasky
will play against the Habs.
Mike Egener
Paul Ranger
will make the trip to Montreal, but not play.
Burke placed on waivers
Submitted by zepdog on September 25, 2006 - 14:25
Tampa Bay Lightning
As expected, Lightning placed Sean Burke on waivers per TSN report published today - hopefully he will get picked up and some of his $1.6 mil salary can be off-loaded.

It's Not Ego Preventing Jim Buss from Hiring Phil Jackson (3.12.14)
With Phil Jackson's eventual signing as the president of basketball operations for the New York Knicks, a wave of criticism is being cast toward Jim Buss, the current executive vice president of player personnel for the Los Angeles Lakers — otherwise known as the bumbling son of the late, great, Dr. Jerry Buss.
Kobe Bryant and Magic Johnson, two cornerstones of the franchise, are just the latest to make a call for action "at the top," meanwhile, reporters and analysts have been hounding Jim's decisions since his promotion to a more prominent role in the franchise back in 2005.
According to multiple reports, it was the dying wish of Dr. Buss for his son, Jim, to run the basketball side of the Lakers, while his adored daughter, Jeanie, would run the business side of the franchise. While not necessarily an oppressive form of patriarchy, this ruling has surely had its faults, and it has led to the demise of the Lakers organization, including what is amounting to be the worst season in the history of the franchise.
Things have not gone quite so smoothly throughout the Jim Buss era, notably his failed head coaching hires of Rudy Tomjanovich, Mike Brown, and Mike D'Antoni, to the recent spurning from Dwight Howard — the first big name player to ever leave the Lakers with big money on the table. Jim's most egregious failure certainly has to be the dangling of a head coaching gig over Jackson's head in 2012 before abruptly hiring D'Antoni — this failure led to numerous, thundering, "We want Phil," chants, including, memorably, the night Shaquille O' Neal's jersey was retired.
Clearly, things have not gone quite as planned under Jim's reign. While the Lakers have enjoyed considerable success throughout his time, including two championships, and three consecutive NBA Finals appearances, many attribute such success to the efforts of Jackson in tandem with an all-time great in Kobe Bryant, and veteran talents such as Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, and Derek Fisher — and undoubtedly, Dr. Buss's willingness to spend money and pay the luxury tax.
Now, with the Lakers at their lowest, Los Angeles is clamoring for Jackson's return, a beacon of hope, with the desire that he turn around the franchise. The claim that the Lakers are to be a "family run business," doesn't necessarily hold credence considering the fact that Jackson is engaged to Jeanie, and the two are soon to be married. His last name may not be Buss, but it is clear that Jackson carries the best interests of the Lakers with him. So what gives?
Well, obviously, ego. Hiring Jackson at this point in time to be the president of basketball operations would ultimately mean that Jim would, essentially, be firing himself. Lakers fans surely want Jim to sacrifice such ego for the better of the franchise, and Jeanie has certainly endorsed Jackson, but this just isn't going to happen. Jim is not going to step aside for his condescending brother-in-law. He clearly has problems with Jackson that run deeper than a workplace relationship, and despite Jackson's wealth of basketball knowledge, he simply has no interest in hiring him to take his place at the top of the mountain.
And I can understand why. It really isn't all that difficult to comprehend. It's not just ego, or spite, that is holding Jim back, it is the almost certain promise of redemption. It is the, "I can do this, I can be great," mentality. It is the need to prove himself. It is the desire to live up to his father's dying wish, the hunger for credibility.
Jim believes that in two to three years, the Lakers are once again going to be the marquee franchise of the NBA. Simply put, Jim does not want Jackson claiming credit for "turning the franchise around," he believes he can do it himself.
And honestly, he's probably right. While the Lakers could definitely use Jackson as a head coach, that is not the position Jackson desires, thus making Jackson rather superfluous in the ability for the franchise to once again be a contender. The Lakers are set up rather nicely for a relatively quick reload, and Jim knows it.
So how exactly are the Lakers going to turn this thing around?
Well, this coming summer, the Lakers will land a lottery draft pick in what is considered one of the most talented draft classes in a long time — a first for the franchise since Andrew Bynum went 10th overall in the 2005 NBA Draft. This pick is going to be the future of the franchise, whether it is Jabari Parker, Andrew Wiggins, Joel Embiid, Julius Randle, Dante Exum, or Marcus Smart. Each of these guys is considered to be supremely talented, and while none of them may be on the level of a transformational player such as LeBron James or Kevin Durant, each of them possess considerable upside.
Then there's the summer of 2015 when it is all but assumed that Kevin Love is going to become a Laker in free agency — and if the Timberwolves are competent in any form, they should trade him before he straight up leaves them. If Love isn't nabbed, there are numerous talented options: Rajon Rondo, Kyrie Irving, LaMarcus Aldridge, Roy Hibbert, Marc Gasol, Nikola Vucevic, Klay Thompson, and Kawhi Leonard, among others. There's plenty of big names here, and certainly one of these guys won't mind a huge pay day while leading the turnaround of the franchise. With plenty of cap room, the Lakers can sign any of these free agents to a max deal.
And that is just the beginning. That 2015-16 season will likely be Bryant's last, as his current two year extension will expire. With a top-flite free agent, a budding young draft pick, and an all-time great leading the squad, the Lakers will likely make some noise in the playoffs — not necessarily championship noise, but surely advancement in the postseason, a great building block for sure.
Following that, comes the summer of 2016, with the likes of Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Andre Drummond, Joakim Noah, Damian Lillard, Bradley Beal, and Harrison Barnes all available as free agents.
Depending upon Bryant, the Lakers may or may not have room for these 2016 free agents. Bryant's current extension will be expired, but he may not be ready to retire — especially if he feels that the first year of his extension was wasted. If he does retire, the Lakers, if wise in their signings, will certainly have the cap room to offer one of them a max contract to team with Love and the budding young draftee of 2014 who will still be on a cheap rookie deal. If Bryant decides to instead come back, he certainly won't cost himself a shot at championship number six by demanding top dollar, and instead, he'll much more likely be willing to accommodate the franchise in the hopes of bringing another max level free agent to the franchise.
So let's run this down. Top level draft pick in 2014. Top level free agent in 2015. Possible top level free agent in 2016. Unfortunately, the Lakers will not accumulate a top draft pick in 2015, that pick belongs to the Suns due to the ill-fated Steve Nash trade. Despite this blunder, and the unknown future of Bryant, the Lakers are set up to reload relatively quickly.
Yes, a two to three year wait for greatness seems like a long time for Lakers' fans accustomed to championships, however, it's really not that long in the grand scheme of things, and as Jim sees it, it's not like Jackson is going to make this process move any faster.
If Jim truly felt that he wouldn't be able to turn the franchise around, I believe that he would bite the bullet, even with all of the past transgressions, but at this point in time, that just isn't the case. Jackson is sure to bring an aura of greatness to New York, but that is a franchise that hasn't done anything of importance since 1972-73. Jackson's impact will be far greater in New York than it would be in Los Angeles. The Knicks need Jackson to counteract the failure of Jim Dolan's ownership. Meanwhile, the Lakers are just four seasons removed from their last championship.
No matter what, the Lakers are going to have to wait a couple of seasons to once again be great. Next season will likely be rough once again, but as soon as the 2014-15 season ends, things will be looking up. If you think free agents are going to avoid Los Angeles, a marquee franchise with championship pedigree, Hollywood endorsements, the night life, the weather, the beach, and everything else that comes with the franchise, you, simply, are wrong.
Howard may have put a scare in the franchise, but he undoubtedly is an aberration, not the norm. Howard isn't necessarily a young star, and he saw the writing on the wall for the Lakers problems, as well as the opportunity for immediate success in Houston. His decision had more to do with basketball reasons relative to his age than anything else.
Simply put, Jim Buss will lead the Lakers back to prominence, and when everyone is kissing his [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.], he'll beam with an "I told you so," arrogance, an air of intellectual superiority. In actuality, he may have more in common with his father than we know.

Gear Review
Not for me
I bought this last year and have to say i was a little disappointed. First off, it seemed very nice coming out of the box, however the first time I put it on, the stitching on the back of the collar ripped all the way across. It also was way stiff for a softshell, probably due to the fleece. It was very warm and seemed very durable but didn't fit my needs. Sizing was also boxy for skinny people.

Cartel Authorities to Block Haspa Deal, FT Deutschland Says
Feb. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Plans by Hamburger Sparkasse to buy a 25.1 percent stake in Kreissparkasse Herzogtum Lauenburg will be blocked this week by Germany's cartel authorities, Financial Times Deutschland said, citing a person familiar with the matter.
The cartel office will block the transaction on fears the bank may dominate the market in some areas after the transaction, the newspaper said.

Too predictable, quite disappointed
I was looking forward to this. But when I finally saw it on blue ray I was disappointed. After about 15 min into the movie I already knew what was going to happen and thought it was just a waste of time. It did drag it self out, the witty/funny lines weren't that funny. However, I did think the acting was very good, I enjoyed the monologue parts where Downey Jr. said his ideas in slow motion then actually took action. Too bad the writing wasn't as good as the actors. 2.5 out of 5 they could have done a lot better than this.

Brought to you by
Hi all you mommies out there! I am a FTM and due for my annual exam. I'm curious if any of you had a Pap smear while pregnant and if it went fine. I only have nerves bc the ultrasound tech at my last appt said absolutely not, don't get a Pap smear while pregnant. I asked a nurse and she said it was no big deal if I got one. It's pretty necessary for me since I previously had cancer cells and a conization to remove them. I'm currently 16 weeks but will be 19 weeks at my next appt. Thanks for your input!
I got a pap smear while pregnant with both pregnancies. No big deal, I think. With this pregnancy it was done at 12 weeks.
I had a Pap test done in my early pregnancy and all was fine! Also, make sure your doctor is aware that you've had a conization in the past so they can monitor your cervical length closely throughout the pregnancy :-)
I tried to refuse one during pregnancy, but my OB didn't give me much choice as I was due for a pap. Some women may experience a little spotting afterwards(which is fine). However it's not that bad mine took 2 mins.
I got one this pregnancy. It's standard to do it at the OB office I go to (unless you had a pap in the year prior to pregnancy).
I've had a pap at the first appt for 3 with of my babies. I thought it was normal practice.
Pap smears are routinely done during pregnancy for everyone :)
I got one on my second appt. my OB told me I might experience spotting afterwards but I didn't. All was fine
They are not standard practice!! Only if your due for one or have past history of abnormal cells. I had one in October so I won't get one for another 2 years because I'm over 30 and never had an abnormal result. My doctor waits until after pregnancy unless there is a problem.
I had mine at 10 wks I do believe. Didn't have any bleeding or discomfort or anything during or afterwards. I was due for my annual pap when they did it too.
I've had one with all 3 of my pregnancies. I think it's very low risk. My doc warned me I might have spotting after because of extra blood flow and extra sensitive tissue, but I never did have any issues.
I think the ultra sound girl was a little beyond her scope of practice.
I'm due one too and have previously had abnormal cells. My OB told me to wait until after I deliver though, not because the smear is dangerous but because it's difficult for them to get an accurate result during pregnancy. Plus if the smear did come back abnormal they wouldn't perform any procedure during pregnancy anyway.
They did a Pap smear at my very first appt. I was 8 weeks.
Its definitely up to you. My midwife said that we'll bypass it as I'm due for one now but instead it'll get done at the 6 week check up with bub :)
I had one ( I was over due) at my appt at 13 wks. Actually the first time I didn't have spotting after one. No more soreness then usual and it was really quick all came back normal. No big deal here.
I always wait until after delivery!
It's not a standard practice where I go! If you have had normal Pap tests and are due for one, they wait until about 3 months after you deliver. Never while you are pregnant. It might be different in a situation where it had previously came back abnormal but I've never experienced that.
That's bs I think Most of is get a Pap smear usually on first prenatal visit. I would especially do one if u had bad cells before
Most of US
I got one while pregnant. I also had to get a colposcopy while pregnant bc they found pre cancerous cells. Everything went fine. I have never heard that it wasn't ok to have a pap during pregnancy. I wouldn't worry about it at all.

SD2 files crash Workspace
Some SD2 files, apparently those with resource fork issues, crash ProTools when auditions are attempted via Workspace, kicking back a C++ Assertion error in "Cmn_Store.cpp".
This is on a Win 7 system utilizing MacDrive. This is like a horrible game of Minesweeper, where if you you fail with your luck, ProTools and the entire session goes down in flames. Please address this.

This is more an OS issue. The same happens on OSX because SD2 files are prone to losing their resource-forks which makes them unreadable.
I highly recommend converting all your SD2 files to BWAV to avoid this in the future.
I doubt that PT can address this since the corruption happens before the files are even loaded into PT. Even under OSX this happens.
That's actually what I am in the process of doing now, getting everything to BWAV. I wonder if there's a way that they can be ignored from playback though sine the Workspace scans the files (to load up waveforms and such).
Pro Tools hasn't supported SD2 files since version 8. You should use Import Session Data to import and convert those sessions audio files to WAV format.

About Me
I am Sama Tanveer from Pakistan. I am currently pursuing an Economics Undergraduate degree from the University " Lahore University of Management Sciences". I like to devote my free time , which includes my semester breaks, etc, for the cause of female childrens literacy. Here in Pakistan, many parents send their young daughters to different houses to take the job of a maid so they can get money. They believe education is not important for women because of two reasons : - They will get married and have kids, hence get busy in running thier own family - They can never make any difference
Whereas, the girls themselves are very smart and keen to learn. I have done internships and also managed an internship at the girls schools where the girls were not charged any tuition fee. The dedication they had was commendable.
Also, the work such welfare organisations are doing in Pakistan is very praiseworthy as well. I have had personal conversations with such students as well. I will be very keen to share their thoughts and works in my next journal post.

They will be joined by expert summarisers including Geoffrey Boycott, Michael Vaughan, Phil Tufnell, Graeme Swann and former Kiwi skipper Jeremy Coney.
New Zealand play two Tests, five one-day internationals and one Twenty20 international, before Australia visit for the five-Test Ashes series, one T20 match and a five-match ODI series.
During the Test series, there will be daily highlights on BBC Radio 5 live's In Short page as well as a daily TMS podcast, with live text commentary on the BBC Sport website - while you can live news and wicket alerts on the BBC Sport app.

If you are going to buy, you might look at ESET NOD32. It is one of the best. I don't buy the suite, just the AV product. Also, computers have become like cars. Buy the parts, install them, add the operating system and they run. Youtube has a lot of videos for building computers and it is pretty simple.

I do understand, I spent a lot of money on a new rig back in January myself. I was about $15 away from either having a charge from the bank for not having enough money in there, or not being able to fully pay off my credit card. And if it wasn't for someone I know having a good case for me to use, I would have ended up waiting a little while to use the parts as they didn't fit in my old one.
It was definitely worth it though, things run so much easier now, and I no longer have to put up with 64 gb of hard drive space. The only thing I still need to update is my video card... well, and my desk cause the thing on my list after the video card is a third monitor. Guess I also need a new mouse/keyboard.

Keeps dogs busy
posted 6 years ago
Our dogs like the long skinny rawhide bones better than these. They are harder to get their mouth around and takes them longer to chew. However, this design keeps them busy longer.
Pros: Good material
Cons: none

jklewissf gave this placeDisappointingMy husband and I are big steamworks fans and are familiar with the clubs in Berkeley and Chicago. This club was a disappointment. There is no jacuzzi which we liked in Berkeley and really impressed with in Chicago. The place was not at all crowded for the DILF event and much heavier on the D side of things. There was a lot of unprotected fucking going on. Maybe the new drugs have changed things but Berkeley was always very proactive in making sure only safe sex took place in the public areas. We both met friendly guys and got off a couple of times but all in all it was not like the other clubs where we would stay for hours. the place was reasonably clean. Parking is a problem.
steam.works.73 is now a fan
steam.works.73 gave this placeresponding to DuckRoggers2038We're sorry your visit to our Seattle club was less than optimal. True, our Chicago facility is a great bathhouse. The Seattle club is a work in progress. We have major upgrades planned for Seattle soon. Until then, we continue to be confident calling our Seattle club the best bathhouse in the area. Visit us on any Saturday night and you'll see naked men of every shape, size, color, and from all walks of life.
DuckRoggers2038 gave this placeWorst steamworksHere is the positive... This place has a really great steam room. It's huge and one of the best designs. However, I went there about 5 times within two weeks while visiting Seattle... Steam room lacked steam in a bad way and didn't fill up the room. The reviews of this place are accurate. There was only small crowds and most people were not friendly. The staff was friendly though. This place has the gritty and dirty feel, which is a attraction for some. But true fully it's like Seattle itself... Dark, wet, and kinda depressing. It has great mazes and this big area with a cage...lots of places to take a dude to and you don't need a room to find privacy. It also has a couple a corners with a box with see through mirrors that was cool to watch guys play in. But it falls short with the lack of a great working steam room, very dingy appearance, and fails in comparison to steamworks Chicago. It's so far off base, that if I owned this chain I would create a new brand for Seattle steamworks and not let it tarnish my franchise any longer.
brianb83 is now a fan

HarleyDaddy gave this placeAloof Unfriendly CrowdWhy do you go to a Gay Bathhouse? IS it to interact with other men in a positive and friendly way? If so, then this is NOT the bath for you. This facility is "Pretty", and very "high designer concept", but it is sadly lacking in real substance. There is no "heart" here. A stranger will not be made to feel welcome here. The general attitude here is one of "passive indifference". No one will be rude to you, but no one will make any effort to talk to you or make you feel welcome.. This applies to even very young very appealing men. I cannot recommend this bath to anyone until the attitude improves considerably IN this bath, it is rare to see two men actually interacting with each other - even to engage in a simple conversation. There is a lot of "silent brooding" going on here.
