Please Explain: Autism
Friday, November 14, 2008
Guests:Dr. Kathy Pratt
Comments [19]
I beg to differ. Our son is now 13, still non-verbal, and still in diapers. His system may simply have not been able to cope with so many vaccines in such a short space of time. Our two younger children (who are also fully vaccinated) had their shots spaced out more widely, never more than one shot at a time, and, when it was possible, separate shots for the MMR. I know my son, and his history, far better than you, Chris from NJ, so I would prefer that you not try to talk down to me. There is a government agency which compensates those persons who are damaged by vaccines or their components. I doubt very much that it would exist were there no need for it.
Sorry Mary Ann, but vaccines didn't do it to your son. Mine has autism too and I accept that it is genetic. You should look up the term "post hoc fallacy".
If a segment on vaccination is done, I strongly suggest it include a discussion of the resurgence of whooping cough & the need for adults to get booster shots to keep them from transmitting it to babies, who are the most likely to die from it.
The experts' failure to deal firmly and efficiently with the unfounded and corrosive vaccine scare was disappointing and under the circumstances I think even non-experts ought to equip themselves with enough knowledge of the subject to be able to do so. On the other hand, one would think a psychologist would be ideally suited to explain the post hoc fallacy in a way which would give non-scientists the means to defend themselves against it and its unfortunate consequences.
And yes - let's have a Please Explain about vaccines, including the horrific facts about the appalling destruction wreaked by "mild" and "harmless" infections such as measles and rubella in the pre-vaccination era (in the developed world) and including a more thorough discussion of the flawed and now clearly bogus link to autism.
I don't understand the purpose in having a psychologist on to discuss vaccines--he declined to debate, rightly acknowledging that he lacks the expertise to do so.
Interview Paul Offit if you sincerely want to debate the mainstream scientific case against a vaccine-autism connection.
My son was diagonosed with PDD-NOS and I do not think it was related at all to the vaccines. There were things about my son that were always there long before any of the vaccines that are constantly linked to autism were administered. At any rate, I found the "experts" on this show hesitant to give answers to the questions. Leonard you did your best to ask probing questions but they both seemed afraid to state their opinions. There was so much more that could have been explored if they were willing to be candid.
One thing I have learned about spectrum disorders is that if you have seen one child on the spectrum, you have seen one child on the spectrum. All the children (mostly boys) present with different combinations of difficiencies in different areas. Some have splinter skills some don't. Some are hyperlexic, some have limited verbal abiltites. Some respond to gluten free diets, others don't. Some also have physical issues, some don't. There is still so much that we don't know. So Leonard, please keep talking about autism and bring on more specialists that are willing to talk openly even if their views are controversial.
Early Intervention, while a great program (which our son went through) is not a cure-all. Also, attention must be paid to the fact that families, as a whole, suffer from autism (divorce rate is 80% or so, last time I checked) and often one parent (generally the mother) has to stop working outside the home in order to become the primary caretaker (thus cutting the income of the family in half) so that the family has both social (cannot often go out into the community) and financial disadvantages. Housing may also be affected (we were forced out of a rental in a co-op after we disclosed that our son was autistic). So....it is not all rosy "get well" stories.
Our son was completely normal and typical until after having his one-year vaccines. He developed a high fever and was never the same again. Lost eye contact, started staring at walls, and started lining up cars. At the age of eight he is still in diapers and cannot speak. Every day is a struggle for our family. With our second son we spaced the vaccines and had the MMR divided (no problems with our second son). I think part of the problem is an overly aggressive vaccine schedule. Children are required to take many more vaccines in their first year of life than they were previously. I was born in 1967 and had six or so vaccines (including polio). I had the mumps, the measles, and chicken pox and am today a healthy (if overstressed) woman of 41. I can speak, too, which my son cannot.
Multiple vaccines, some of which require toxic preservatives (thimerosal, for instance) to keep them shelf-stable (and more profitable) are part of the problem. Some attention should be given to the constant stress the parents and siblings live under due to the disaster these vaccines have caused. I am currently expecting our third child and, while it will be vaccinated, the vaccines will be single and they will be well spaced.
Yes, a a "Please Explain" segment on vaccines AND autism would be great. It's ridiculous that 1/2 the population thinks these 2 things are connected.
And 1 reason vaccines are given together in 1 shot is so children (& adults getting booster shots!) don't have to get as many injections & have separate appointments for each one--painful for the child & often difficult for the parents.
Leonard, have you had a "Please Explain" segment on vaccines? If not, I hereby suggest it.
Vaccines are still given for German measles because if a pregnant woman has it, it can cause severe birth defects in the child.
By nutritional components I mean a terrible food system full of things that should be illegal because they are so toxic to nerves etc.
Why are these guests not emphasizing, over and over, the fact that no large-scale studies have found any link between autism and vaccines? The MMR hypothesis has been shot down (and the doctor who presented it found to have a conflict of interest), and autism rates have not dropped off even after the removal of thimerosol from most vaccine stock. Kids with autism and their parents deserve answers, and research dollars should be put into fields with promise, not ones advocated by celebrities with no medical or epidemiological training.
This is frustrating, with splintered understandings because of over specialization of understanding - there are also nutritional components nobody wants to talk about
there are really moving accounts of the experience of autism given by John Robison and Dawn Prince Williams in their respective memoirs
I was surprised to hear that the average age of diagnosis is 5 years. I'm curious if there is diagnosis spectrum based on the severity of the disorder. That is, do children with more sever autism tend to be diagnosed earlier, and it's the very mild Asperger's type symptoms that take longer to diagnose?
As children on the spectrum of Autisum move through our public schools and onto college and university settings, higher education institutions are starting to respond with necessary programming. Would your guest comment on this trend?
My sister works in early intervention, and there is often resistance on the parent's part to admitting that his/her child has a problem.
Some people think it's caused by vaccination (mercury/thimerose) - my sister works with autistic children in NJ (OT) - she tells me the mothers go to Pennsylvania for raw cow's and esp. goat's milk to help their children.

I first replaced the fan, because it wouldn't run, then replaced the defrost thermostat, because I didn't know how to test it, and the defrost control board, because it was all I thought was left. Turns out it was the defrost heater. The control board senses current flow through the heater and switches the fan off. With an open element the fan won't work. This can be tested with an Ohm meter. The thermostat will test open at room temperature, this is normal.

Honda Unveils New, Upgraded ASIMO Robot
Honda Motor Co. unveiled "the world's first autonomous behavior control" ASIMO humanoid robot on Tuesday.
The new robot is able to continue moving without being controlled by an operator. Honda also said that ASIMO is now a step closer to practical use in an office or a public place.
The company said its new ASIMO has advanced from an "automatic machine" to an "autonomous machine" with its ability to make decisions and determine its behavior according to its surroundings.
ASIMO is now capable of responding to the movement of people and the surrounding situations.
"For instance, ASIMO will stop its current action and change its behavior to accommodate the intention of the other party," Honda said in a press release.
"Coordination between visual and auditory sensors enables ASIMO to simultaneously recognize a face and voice, enabling ASIMO to recognize the voices of multiple people who are speaking simultaneously, which is difficult even for a human being to accomplish," the company said in its release.
Honda has also improved the robots physical capability. ASIMO is now capable of "more flexibly adapting to changing external situations so that it can" walk over an uneven surface while maintaining its posture.
The company also improved ASIMO's task-performing abilities. The robot is now able to perform tasks like picking up a glass bottle and twisting off the cap, or hold a soft paper cup to pour a liquid without squishing it.
"With these capabilities, the all-new ASIMO takes another step closer to practical use in an environment where it coexists with people," Honda said in a press release.

Top Arab satcaster MBC on Tuesday vowed that Egyptian TV comic Bassem Youssef will be back on the air in Egypt "soon," though not necessarily with his political satire show "Al-Bernameg" (The Program) which has been pulled amid mounting pressure in a clear sign of a crackdown on satire in Egypt.
Youssef, known as the Jon Stewart of the Arab world, called it quits in Cairo on Monday, in the aftermath of the landslide election won last week by former army chief Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, now the country's president, whom Youssef had mocked on the show, also urging him not to run.
On Tuesday MBC spokesman Mazen Hayek said the "contractual and professional" relationship between MBC and Bassem Youssef and his team remains in place with two or three specific projects. "We promise the audience that we will come back with Bassem and the Al-Bernameg team soon," Hayek said.
"Whether it's 'Al-Bernameg,' a different version, or something totally different. What shape or form, on what channel, it's too early to tell," he added.
As for what prompted the landmark show's cancellation, Hayek said "we (MBC and Youssef) reached a stage of unsurmountable pressure from all sides on practically everyone involved in the production. However, as MBC we don't blame any specific party for stopping 'Al-Bernameg'."
The MBC spokesman also denied media speculation that the Saudi-owned broadcaster may have bowed to pressure from the Saudi government, which has been among el-Sissi's backers.
"I can go further by telling you Saudi Arabia has nothing to do with that decision," Hayek said. "MBC Group is a privately owned company. We don't fall under any official mandate from any government, including Saudi Arabia. The origin of the pressures were not Saudi."
There is no evidence of Egypt's newly elected president having a direct role in pushing Youssef off the air. Still, during the presidential campaign el-Sissi said he would not tolerate "offensive" criticism and would enforce an existing law against insulting the president.
The MBC spokesman said that ever since "Al-Bernameg" went back on air on MBC - after being cancelled by Egyptian broadcaster CBC under Islamist president Mohammad Morsi, also satirised by Youssef - MBC Egypt had never interfered with its content.
"We were receiving the episodes ready to air a couple of hours before the airing time," Hayek said.
"Bassem and his team where the only people responsible for the content of 'Al Bernameg,' with our support because we carried whatever content they sent us to the screen."
"We were broadcasting 'Al-Bernameg' in the face of all kinds of rumours, lawsuits, pressures, demonstrations near the studios where the show was shot, and jamming. We continued in spite of it all. But then it reached a stage where it couldn't continue."
Youssef, a former heart surgeon, gained popularity after the 2011 Egyptian revolution, first on YouTube and then on Egyptian TV channels ONTV and CBC where his ratings soared as he snarked at president Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood whose supporters took legal action. After Morsi was ousted in a military coup, his jokes and stinging skits became directed towards the country's new military-backed powers against which there now seems to be even less leeway.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) -- C.J. Harris scored eight of his 18 points in the final 1 minutes, and Wake Forest rallied to beat William & Mary 63-57 on Friday night. Travis McKie added 15 points for the Demon Deacons (3-2). They trailed by 13 in the first half before shooting 52 percent (11 of 21) in the second half while holding the Tribe to one field goal during a critical 8 minutes down the stretch. Marcus Thornton scored 17 points for William & Mary (3-2). Tim Rusthoven added 11, and his layup with 9 minutes left put the Tribe up 47-46. But William & Mary managed just three field goals the rest of the way, missing 11 of 12 from 3-point range before Thornton hit a contested 3 with 4 minutes left. Harris was 6 for 6 from the free-throw line in the final 90 seconds and hit a layup to help the Demon Deacons pull away and avoid their second home loss to William & Mary in four seasons. The Tribe shot 41 percent (21 of 51) and finished 4 of 18 from 3-point range in lo...

People in Pakistan are branding conscious. They don't notice the price or the chemicals used in the branded cosmetics but are mad about them. Homemade cosmetics are natural and are trustworthy. They don't get expire and using the homemade cosmetics you can assure your skin safety. Homemade cosmetics are natural so they are natural made by using the best products. Here are some of the homemade cosmetics recipes which will help us to know more about them.
The very first homemade cosmetics recipe which I prefer the most is to make your facials. It's easy and affordable. The best thing in such cosmetics is that they are free of the preservatives. Ok now to make homemade facial you need some things. 1 egg yolk, 2 T egg white, 1 T honey 1 t rose water. Beat together and then apply to the face and neck. Leave on for about 10-15 minutes, and then rinse off with warm water. You will automatically feel so much relax and refreshing.
Next recipe is to make a glossy lip gloss. All you have to do is to arrange 1/4 c. beeswax, 1/4 c. castor oil, 2 T. sesame oil, melt beeswax, remove from heat and add oils, add as much beet juice as desired for color. Store in jar and use it when ever you want.
The third homemade cosmetic recipe is about Raspberry scrub. Take 4 to 5 ounces of raspberries. Place the 1 tb sugar in a bowl and set aside. Blend raspberries, 1 tb of olive oil and flavor extracts in a blender. Add blended fruit mixture to sugar, blending thoroughly after each addition. This homemade cosmetic recipe is very essential and is not expensive at all.
Eyes are very sensitive part of our body. A lot of our makeup is applied on our eyes and need to clean it properly. Making an eye makeup remover is also as easy as other homemade cosmetics recipes were. 1 tablespoon castor oil, 1 tablespoon light olive oil, 2 teaspoons canola oil. Blend all these things and put them in a sealed jar or bottle. Apply it with tissue or cotton what ever you like. You will feel this homemade cosmetic recipe very comfortable and is easy to make as well.
Sunscreens are available in the market very easily but are not that much reliable as if it's made as a homemade cosmetics recipe. This homemade cosmetics recipe is bit long. Take Beeswax, Shea Butter, Avocado Oil, Coconut Oil, Sesame Oil and Canola Oil and melt it. Add Vitamin E to all this mixture. Warm the Aloe Vera Gel and borax powder in a separate pan until the powder is mixed well. Mix it with the melted oil and butter. Whisk properly until you get a creamy texture. Store it in an airtight jar and keep it refrigerated and apply it before going out to make sure your skin is not infected by the scorching heat of sun.

Fiesta vs Clio: 1.0-litre hatch battle
Hammond loved his 3cyl Ford, but can it beat the tiny-engined Renault on British roads?
Posted: 17 Feb 2014
Which is why, by way of the longest pre-match justification in TopGear history, I'm barrelling down a chilly B-road in wildest Hertfordshire - where muntjac, sheep and the permatanned wives of city bankers roam - in an 898cc, three-cylinder Clio, being hotly pursued by a Fiesta with precisely 101 extra cubic centilitres but similarly few cylinders. Not as an apologetic sop to global warming or affordable insurance groups (as some scientists will probably tell you, there's no solid evidence for the existence of either), but as proof that true fastness doesn't come from dozens of cylinders and hundreds of horsepowers.
Fastness is eking every last horsepower from a car, from nailing each gearshift to the millisecond to maintain every valuable yard of pace. And, by that definition, the new Clio is fast. When we say 'new' Clio, we really mean it: this is a clean-sheet design. With Renault struggling in Europe (hell, everyone's struggling in Europe, but Renault's feeling it worse than most), there's a lot riding on the MkIV Clio. Which could explain why Renault's thrown the full car-design coursebook at it. Usually when a manufacturer claims a production car was inspired by one of its previous concepts, it means 'well, they've both got four wheels', but the Clio does draw on the extravagance of 2010's extravagant DeZir concept, with bulging flanks and bulging eyes and even a bulging badge up front. Maybe it's not the most elegant supermini ever created - albeit better resolved and less nosey in the metal than in photos - but it's interesting and different, for which we must all applaud Renault.

2000 BEST Indian Restaurant, Suburban
Jaipur Cafe
It's worth the trek to the 'burbs to try this Indian food influenced by various regions of India. The Cafe's tandoor specials include marinated whole fish and chicken burra kabab (marinated in a ginger, yogurt, and saffron sauce), and are consistently as good as their more traditional fare like the chicken tikka masala and vegetarian dishes.

The location was brilliant with the 200 bus around the corner and the M4 bus in the median strip opposite the hotel. Breakfast was varied and included eggs, meats, cheeses, breads, cereals, juice, salad type items. All good quality and plentiful. The machine coffee was passable. The room was basic but comfortable, quiet, large enough. The tiny bathroom had plenty of bench space good lighting and excellent hot water pressure. The staff were efficient and very helpful. All in all, a very good experience and we could certainly stay at the Alex Hotel if we return to Berlin.

Meredith is an outdoor camping festival in Australian bushland. The farmland is renamed the Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre for the event; the natural amphitheatre itself is where the bands play. The surrounding areas – with names such as Spring Valley, North Pines, Mulwaverley, Tasmania, Kevin and Sanctuary Cove host bush camping. Most people sleep in tents or vans. Most also erect some kind of shelter or temporary lounging zones at their campsites in which to relax and muck about with their friends while not watching bands.
The festival started in 1991 as an end-of-year party for about 250 friends. It currently attracts an almost-instant sell-out of all 10,000 tickets.
The band-viewing area, the amphitheatre, is spectacular. There is only one stage at Meredith, which aims to get rid of the mad rushing between stages at other outdoor music festivals as well as concentrate people's attention on the music. Views from around the amphitheatre are unimpeded. The stage is nestled in a grove of native Australian eucalypt trees.
Meredith prides itself on being non-commercial, which is a major point of difference between it and other outdoor music festivals. It is BYO alcohol only (in plastic or cans, not glass) – except for the Pink Flamingo Bar, open to those over 18 for cocktails. Meredith is not sponsored by anything other than itself. There is no commercial signage. There are no fires permitted, so punters in the main have to buy food, but the food on offer is cheap and good. There are few fast food outlets, for example. There is good coffee on sale. All in all it has a reputation for being laid-back, friendly and full of strange but good independent music from around the world.
There are several infamous added attractions at Meredith. The best-known is the wacky Meredith Gift, a nude running race. The name is taken from the Stawell Gift. The Meredith Gift has no rules except entrants must be nude. They vie for a trophy called The Golden Jocks. There is a sportsfield at the Meredith site with totem tennis sets and badminton courts. There are tai chi classes, regular appearances by an old-school brass band and the imposing Meredith Eye, which is a very large ferris wheel.
The land on which the festival takes place is owned by the Nolan family. The first festival, in 1991, attracted only 250 people. The last festival in 2006 attracted around 10,000. By 1994 bands were asking the festival's organisers if they could be on the bill. Over the years artists to have played Meredith include Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Cat Power, The Avalanches, Blackalicious, The Shins, Dirty Three, Augie March, Will Oldham, Andrew W.K., You Am I, The Presets, Datarock, The Gossip, Midlake, Wolfmother and many more.
Being outdoors, Meredith is at the mercy of the weather – in 2001 heavy rain throughout the month preceding the festival caused some issues with road surfaces. 2002 was hot and dry and dust swirled around the amphitheatre. 2004 saw two fierce, cyclonic storms batter the site, to be followed by electrical storms that framed the stage in an eerie, apocalyptic light.
The 2008 Meredith Music Festival will be held on the 12th, 13th and 14th of December and will have a line-up that includes MGMT, The Bronx and the Yacht Club DJ's.
Meredith Music Festival had complaints from previous years in regards to the distribution of tickets. Because of the festival's building popularity, there has been a surge of general public interest in the event, which left some of the long-time veterans and fanatics of the event without tickets for the upcoming event. 'Aunty Meredith' (the personifictation of Meredith Music Festival) has now devised a plan that, the festival organisers think, will be fair on both parties - the veterans and the newcomers to the festival.
The first allocation is distributed through a 'Subscriber Ticket Ballot', which allows half of the total allocation of tickets randomly distributed to 'subscribers' already on MMF's email list. Subscribers are notified in August and need to purchase their tickets within a set period of time.
The second allocation will be sold in record stores in Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat and the Surf Coast as has been the case in previous years. These go on sale after the Ballot closes.
The third allocation is distributed online.
Then...finally...despite all our best efforts, we assume there will still be some disappointed people out there. So...in an effort to mend some potential broken hearts...there will be a finite quantity of tickets issued by Aunty at her compete personal discretion. These will be allocated to some of those that she considers to be, for example, most passionate, or deserving, or unlucky, or having traveled the farthest, or been there the most times, etcetera. These can only be applied for after the rest of the tickets have sold out.
The Meredith Music Festival has also spawned a new festival: the Golden Plains Festival, held early in the year; on a long weekend in March (Labour Day weekend in some States)

The draft Bill, being discussed at a two-day national consultation, is intended to be a comprehensive legislation aimed at improving the working conditions of millions of domestic workers, who contribute significantly for the services sector economy.

Currently, the standard customs duty rate applicable in the GCC is 5 percent. Under the FTA, the GCC is expected to eliminate about 99 percent of customs duties applicable to Singaporean products (95 percent of the products on entry into force and the remainder by 2018). Similarly, Singapore is expected to eliminate all customs duties applied to goods that originate in GCC member states.
To qualify for preferential tariff treatment, the goods would be required to comply with the rules of origin requirements in Singapore and the GCC and the direct consignment rule is expected to apply. Under this rule, the product must be transported directly from the place of production to its preferential destination.
For FTA purposes, it is likely that goods would be deemed to originate in Singapore or in a GCC country where they are wholly obtained or produced in the territory of the exporting country or where they have undergone sufficient processing in the exporting country; in other words, a minimum added value of 35 percent would apply. However, some products are expected to have specific rules of origin based on criteria other than the minimum 35 percent added value1.

It does seem odd. If the light at the receiver is flashing then the problem can only be the connection to the flash or the opto thyristor in the receiver - which is unlikely as you have the same problem with four units.
There is no point trying it with different cameras as even the manual test button on the transmitter will check the operation.
You won't be able to measure anything with a multi-meter as the trigger voltage is provided by the flash, not the reciever.

Another Horror StoryI used the "Friends and Family" discount to buy flowers for a family member on Valentine's Day. The flowers were never delivered. I called customer service on Friday, they were unsuccessful in contacting the florist and said they would contact me once they did. Never heard from them again. I emailed on Tuesday, they didn't return the email despite saying they respond within 24 hours. I called again today and once again was put on hold so that they can contact the florist. They won't give me contact details for the florist. I've spent over an hour on the phone with customer service. I haven't had 1) an apology 2) a refund 3) an explanation 4) any follow-up 5) anything to satisfy their " The FTD 'Good As Gold' 7 Day Satisfaction Guarantee." I did receive an offer of a $10 coupon off my next delivery when I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor. This is seriously the worst customer service I have ever experienced with a large merchant.
I'm filing dispute with my credit card company and letting it go. But let's make sure to avoid this company in the future.
Usually stay out of most threads but wanted to hop in and join into the chorus.
Never buy from FTD.com.
Bought my first order from them and nothing was delviered. No contact made. Couldn't speak to anyone when I called and sat on hold. They called once on Sunday morning and hung up when I picked up. Then emailed me saying I couldn't be reached by phone. Finally called again today and they offered to refund me half of my money. Half of my money when they did nothing. Never attempted a delviery. Never called to reschedule. Nothing.
I filled a complaint with the BBB and disputed the charges.
FTD literally steals half your money before sending your order to the florist. It's just as easy to call your local florist OR use a marketplace service like www.bloomnation
FTD sucks balls SO hard!
They said I had a $25 gift certificate... then I figure what the hell I'll order again just to use the certificate... I sign on to FTD and nothing. Says I never made an order... I email customer service and I get this:
"Please be informed that we are processing $20 coupon for future order. You will able to receive that within 6 - 8 weeks."
What an MF'ing joke... FTD I will NEVER use you again... NEVER. I'm going to try another posters advice and call a local florist and see how it turns out. If all goes well... well... I'll be happy to give the actual florist more $$ and know that things will go as planned.
FTD sucks.

I had to wait months to get an appt with Dr. Grover, when I got there had to wait over an hour to be seen, the rooms have no privacy, walls are so thin you can hear what people in next room are saying. Dr. Grover didn't refer to my CT Scan, instead asked me a bunch of questions, told me I had arthiritis, and there's nothing he could do about it. When I asked him why then the CT Scan showed bulging disc, spinal stenosis, and a lesion on my spine he said he didn't believe any of that, he said the CT Scan didn't mean anything, he felt I had arthritis, period.

This doctor did not listen to me and was very rude as well. I would give zeros if it were an option for knowledge and helpfulness. I waited forever for an appointment but once I finally came out for my appointment he says, "it could get better, it could get worse or stay the same. Come back in 6 weeks and we'll see." It had already been 6 weeks and I TOLD him already it is getting worse. He must be incapable of listening or just wants and extra visit $. In the meantime, my life is on hold. Staff was rude and the rooms were not good for privacy. I could hear every word that was being said in the next room.

I had a severe tear in the meniscus in my right knee (MRI confirmed) as a result of a fall and was told it could take up to 2 years for surgery in either Banff/Calgary. I could barely put any weight on my right knee and getting to work each day was excruciating. I am from Calgary and a good friend suggested I see Dr. Grover. I got my Sports Doctor to refer me to Dr. Grover and had an appointment to see him in May 2013 in Chilliwack. Dr. Grover said he could probably get rid of 90% of my pain but because my knee was moderately arthritic, there was really nothing he could do about that. I liked his no nonsense attitude. I had surgery on my knee 3 weeks after my consultation with Dr. Grover. I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Grover got me back doing things I haven't been able to do for some time. I am still not quite 100% but continue to work with my Physical Therapist who says it could take a year to fully recover. Kudos to the hospital staff who were wonderful.

As a 64 year old male in need of a total hip replacement I checked this site for comments and decided to first seek out a surgeon in Abbotsford. Looking at comments from patients in Abbotsford I choose one and learned it takes 4 months to first see the doctor and another 8 months before surgery. Not acceptable so I talked with my family doctor and she suggested the hip and knee clinic at CGH. Within 2 weeks I met with Dr. Grover who assessed my damaged joint, showed me the x-rays, talked about surgery and explained all the issues which could arise. I agreed to proceed and on the same day I was x-rayed again, blood work drawn, and an ecg done. Within a month I was scheduled for surgery and had no complications or infections. Dr. Grover exceeded my expectations and I am very pleased with the final outcome. Hospital RN's were fantastic and only 1 LPN should find a new career. My mistake was in relying on the info on this site as being representative of the doctors skill and ability.

I was not happy nor impressed with my visit and consultation with Dr. Deepak Grover. Half of my thumb was severed off completely; after having it sewn on by Langley emergency I was referred to Dr. Grover. This experience was horrifying and very painful. I managed to maintain a positive attitude and wanted to make the best of my situation. My overall experience with Dr. Grover's office was disappointing, uneasy and negative. I found the staff to be quite rude and abrasive with little respect for the patient. Dr. Grover introduced himself and aggressively started to take off my bandage. I stopped him and did it myself. Viewing my attached thumb he was 50/50 on his opinion for final outcome but only when I spoke up and said I really wanted to try and keep it. He said come back in 2 days and if it looks blacker (not always the case) I will cut the thumb down more and patch it up. I did not go back...since my attachment did not take however thank GOD another Surgeon did not cut it down!

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0393977463, Paperback)
This provocative narrative history dramatically departs from the standard "rise of the West" storyline that has driven world historiography for a century.A stellar group of historians paint a decidedly different modern world history, one in which the rise of the West was not predetermined and where global integration has manifested itself in fits and starts rather than as a smooth process over the last seven centuries. This fresh interpretation, driven by powerful ideas and colorful stories, promises to engage readers for decades to come.

While cranberries are known for their essential role in the epic production that is Thanksgiving Dinner, they deserve so much more than to be relegated to condiment-hood -- no matter how delicious the cranberry sauce may be. Instead of creating a variety of sweet treats, why not try something a little different? Something savory and sensational -- like these 3 savory-sweet cranbery starters / snacks -- all gluten free, of course!
Spicy Cranberry Jam / Relish
(Seen above.) Perfect for a cheese plate (or baked brie!) this amazingly sweet-tart-spicy jam is simply sensational. Milk/dairy free.
Rosemary Cranberry Spread
I'm not sure anything could be easier: mix cranberries, rosemary and cream cheese to create a delicious savory-sweet spread for crackers and sandwiches.
Herbed Turkey Meatballs with Cranberry BBQ Sauce
Want your Thanksgiving guests to come over for more than just the big game? Serve up a platter of these little guys and you'll never get rid of them! Be sure to use certified gluten free oats (or GF bread crumbs) for the meatballs. Milk/dairy free.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 30 /PRNewswire/ — Donan Engineering Co., Inc. today announced plans to expand their forensic engineering and fire investigation operations into Florida with openings in Orlando and Tampa. Donan will begin offering forensic investigative services from the new Florida offices beginning January 1, 2010. These new offices will provide the state of Florida with a local, single-source provider for forensic engineering and fire investigation services.
"Opening two offices in Florida simultaneously is a huge commitment and challenge for our organization, but it is one that we are extremely excited to take on," says Lyle Donan, CEO and President. "Florida has always been known in our industry for its very unique business challenges. The state is obviously prone to natural disasters, especially during hurricane season, and we feel our firm can be a huge asset in the state for helping those affected with these types of events."
"Over the past several years as we have continued growing into the southeastern United States, and along the way many of our clients have strongly encouraged us to open in the Florida market. They have repeatedly told us that there is always room for a firm that provides results in a timely fashion and at a reasonable rate. Now with our planned openings in Orlando and Tampa it is up to us to continue to deliver the type of exceptional service that we are known for throughout our footprint."
Donan Engineering offers consumers a single source for forensic engineering investigations and fire origin and cause investigations. The firm offers a wide array of services falling under the main categories of structural engineering investigations, fire and explosion origin & cause investigations, roofing investigations, vehicle accident reconstructions, and component testing laboratory services.
Donan Engineering is a third-generation family-owned engineering firm that was founded in 1947 in Madisonville, Kentucky. From 1947 until 1999, the firm focused on providing mostly conventional engineering services (civil, structural, environmental, architecture, etc.). In 1999, with approximately 20 employees in four offices, the decision was made to focus exclusively on the forensic engineering and fire investigation industry.
The firm is now headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. Including the two offices in Florida and one in Chicago opening January 1, Donan now has over 160 employees operating from 24 offices in 12 states. From these locations, the firm completed approximately 18,000 forensic investigations in 2009 for a client base consisting primarily of insurance companies, attorneys, commercial property owners and businesses, manufacturers, utilities, and homeowners.

Senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley says his party is set to gain from the Congress's credibility crisis and the grim economic situation
If the Congress-led UPA government is battling credibility issues on account of corruption charges, poor governance, inflation and an economic slowdown, the BJP, India's leading Opposition party is facing its own internal crisis of dissent over Gujarat Chief Minister, Narendra Modi's emergence as its potential Prime Ministerial candidate, questions over the BJP's secular credentials, the absence of a coherent alliance strategy for the 2014 elections and its failure to mount a convincing opposition to the UPA's scams. Speaking to The Hindu, BJP Leader in the Rajya Sabha, Arun Jaitely, answers tough questions on the multiple crises' facing the Party and whether the 2014 win will be more about alliances and inflation than scams and governance.
Why has the BJP been soft on the UPA's scams? In 2G, the BJP only reacted after the CAG, media and Supreme Court took up the issue in November 2010.
The 2G scandal took place in 2008, the noises started during the general election of 2009. The BJP and the Left parties did flag the issue in the media in 2009 but were busy with the elections. Post elections, I raised the issue extensively in the very first session of Parliament in 2009 itself with active support from the AIADMK's Dr. Maithreyan and the CPI(M)'s Sitaram Yechury, which rocked Parliament for the days, forcing Mr. Raja to reply for hours together. Parliament came to know of 2G only through this discussion. We then organised protests, rallies and seminars on the issue from 2009 onwards.
The BJP has been relatively silent on the KG Basin gas pricing issue while the Left has accused the UPA of tailoring its policies to suit Reliance Industries.
The government's explanation of the basis for the KG Basin gas price increase is unconvincing since it will stoke the inflationary pressures emanating from rising international oil prices. The Standing Committee on Finance headed by Yashwant Sinha has already recommended a reconsideration of gas prices.
Even on the Vadra-DLF land deal, the BJP has maintained radio silence till last week. Your protest in Parliament was a token one.
When the issue first started circulating in the media, there were two views within the party. One was we should not raise the issue just because Mr. Vadra is a member of the Gandhi family, while the alternate view, which has now gained ground, is that we must raise the issue since this is a clear case of undue favours to a person, whose relationship with an important political family gave him the ability to start and grow a business without any capital.
We tried to raise the issue in Parliament twice but were blocked by the ruling party.
The issue involves four stages: First, someone (Satyanand Yajee of Onkareshwar Property) gifts land to Mr. Vadra and styles it as a sale through mention of a fictitious consideration. Second, the State of Haryana helps Mr. Vadra by converting the land use and its value escalates. Third, the land, with its escalated value, is transferred and sold for a windfall gain and lastly, the windfall profits are used by Mr. Vadra to multiply his assets across the country. The net story is that a venture was started with nil investment and unusual transactions entered into which transformed into a bonanza within no time.
The BJP's lacklustre protests have left the Congress unaffected. Is the Vadra-DLF deal overhyped?
Credibility is a political party's most valuable asset, which for the Congress, is now under question. Their silence is particularly disturbing. When no answers are given, it is presumed that no answers could have been given. The absence of truth leaves indelible footprints and the democratic process will ensure that any such taint will return to haunt the Congress.
Mr. Vadra must publicly explain his dealings or the facts in the public domain will strengthen the presumption that these are outright favours to him. This also serves as a lesson for all those in positions of influence that the transactions of their family members must be above board.
But the 2014 win seems more about alliances and inflation than scams and governance.
I foresee a huge anti-incumbency wave against the UPA with a substantial reduction in their strength in 2014. UPA's prospects have been eroded by a grim economic situation, absence of political leadership within the Congress, and widespread corruption charges.
The BJP, which occupies the largest non-Congress space in the country, will be the biggest beneficiary of this anti-incumbency wave, particularly in North, West and Central India. I believe we will be the front runners to form the government in 2014. The BJP's edge will come from the fact that 2014 is increasingly becoming a partial presidential election where leadership will be important.
We will benefit in States where we are independently strong, where we have alliances and where our presence is marginal like the East and South. The increase in our vote percentage — a trend supported by opinion polls — boosts our alliance potential. In some States, our performance is admittedly dependent on our putting our own house in order and stitching up local alliances. A strong BJP will translate into a stronger NDA.
Why are you and Sushma Swaraj shying away from leading the electoral contest in the Delhi elections?
My larger interest is in central politics. For either Sushma Swaraj or I to contest elections in Delhi is not an option, but we will throw our weight behind the candidate selected for the Chief Minister's role in Delhi.
The BJP's disruption of Parliament smacks of indirect opposition to the Food Bill. Won't the electorate see through this?
The BJP is in favour of the right to food. We have repeatedly said we will support the Food Bill as it is necessary for people below the poverty line as well as for the undernourished population above the poverty line. Our objection to the Food Bill is on four counts: unguided discretion in selection of beneficiaries; reduction of the quantity being given to the BPL segment; the danger of it becoming costlier; and the absence of wholesome nourishing food. Gujarat and Tamil Nadu have raised these concerns with the PM. We will propose suitable amendments and allow the Parliamentary process to take its course.
