The CFL season is still more than a few months away, but the Hamilton Ti-Cats are already setting up shop in Guelph with plans to make sure local fans are getting involved in the football fun.
"We want to have participation from the community, and we want them to buy in," said Ti-Cats director of marketing Steve Lowe.
The Tiger-Cats are opening an office downtown in the same building as the Guelph Chamber of Commerce. "We're ready to move into an office there, so we can have some presence there," said Lowe.
It's already common knowledge that the Ti-Cats will be playing their 2013 season at the University of Guelph's Alumni Stadium, he said, but what people don't know is what a game day in Guelph might look like.
"A lot of people are going to want to experience what the Ti-Cats coming to Guelph is all about," said Lowe, noting the team is in the preliminary stages of planning to create that unique experience.
The team has been in conversations with the chamber, the university, the Downtown Guelph Business Association and the City of Guelph to plan some upcoming promotional events, as well as game-day events.
"We're talking about a whole street-party concept to leverage the great downtown core that Guelph has to offer," said Lowe. "We're looking to put that on every game day."
With a seating capacity of between 14,000 and 15,000 at the university facility, a Ti-Cats ticket is "going to be a tough ticket to get," he said. But just because not everyone can go to the game doesn't mean they shouldn't get to take part in the party.
Some of the ideas that are being tossed around include closing some downtown streets and offering people the chance to watch the game on some large outdoor screens, said Lowe.
Tailgate parties at south-end hotels have also been discussed, said Guelph Chamber of Commerce president Lloyd Longfield.
"We want to have the right types of events going on in Guelph around the games," he said.
But in spite of the fact that games will be played south of the downtown, it seems that game-day events will be more centred around the downtown.
"The downtown is our entertainment district; it's also the heart of our city, so if you're showcasing Guelph, you go to the downtown," said Longfield.
Guelph-based stakeholders like the chamber will be doing their best to make the most of the Ti-Cats' presence to promote the city to football fans, but the Ti-Cats are also working to promote Hamilton football to Guelph and the surrounding region.
To make sure that at least some Guelph football fans have the chance to see the game from a stadium seat, the team is making between 2,000 and 4,000 tickets available for Guelph residents.
"We're going to be launching that in mid-February, before they get released to the general public," said Lowe.
As well, as part of the strategy to market the team to the region, the Ti-Cats will be co-ordinating with local stakeholders to host a launch event – tentatively planned for sometime in March – where they will announce some of the plans for the upcoming season.
A larger public event, one that will likely include a visit from some players, will follow in March or April, said Lowe.
"We could have taken the strategy of just taking our market up to Guelph, but that's not what we're about," he said. "We're a regional team."
Still, fans can be expected to travel from Hamilton for the games, and the team is also working on strategies to get them here.
"We will be working out transportation solutions for fans who can't otherwise make it to the games," said Lowe.
For local fans, shuttle buses from the downtown are one of the transportation strategies that have been discussed.
But Lowe, a University of Guelph graduate, doesn't necessarily think the downtown is too far from the university, and believes it makes sense to tie it into the game-day experience. "The downtown is just a hop-skip away from the university. We just think it's a great piece of the pie," he said. "We think it will be a great attraction."

Scans Suggest Recurrent Depression May Take Toll on the Brain
Posted 1 day ago by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, June 30, 2015 – The area of the brain involved in forming new memories, known as the hippocampus, seems to shrink in people with recurring depression, a new study shows. Australian researchers say the findings highlight the need to spot and treat depression when it first develops, particularly among young people. Ian Hickie, who co-directs the Brain and Mind Research Institute at the University of Sydney, led the study. His team looked at the neurology of almost 9,000 people from the United States, Europe and Australia. To do so, they analyzed brain scans and medical data for about 1,700 people with major depression, and almost 7,200 people who didn't suffer from depression. The researchers noted that 65 percent of the participants with major depression had suffered recurring symptoms. The study, published June 30 in the journal Molecular Psychiatry, found that people with ... Read more

Even Treated Depression May Raise Stroke Risk
Posted 13 May 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, May 13, 2015 – Depression in older adults appears to significantly increase the risk of a stroke, even after depression symptoms have gotten better, a new study suggests. The researchers found that people who had severe symptoms of depression were more than twice as likely to have a stroke as those with no symptoms. People who had symptoms at the first interview, but had gotten better by the second interview still had a 66 percent higher stroke risk, the study authors said. "The surprising finding that stroke risk remains elevated even if symptoms seem to have gone away make replicating this study urgent," said lead researcher Paola Gilsanz, a research fellow at Harvard University's T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston. "If replicated, these findings suggest that doctors should seek to identify and treat depressive symptoms before harmful effects on stroke risk start ...

Weight Gain From Antidepressants Is Minimal, Study Suggests
Posted 5 Jun 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, June 5, 2014 – While it has long been known that some antidepressants can help spur weight gain, a new study finds that the actual amount gained is usually small. "This study was motivated in the first place by the number of patients who have asked me if their medicine is going to make them gain weight," said study co-author Dr. Roy Perlis, director of Massachusetts General Hospital's Center for Experimental Drugs and Diagnostics, in Boston. "It's the most common question I get when prescribing any medication, frankly," he said. "But most antidepressant studies have been short term, looking at just a few months of treatment. So I wanted to look at it for a longer period of time," Perlis explained. "I think our findings should be reassuring to patients. Yes, antidepressants can lead in some cases to small amounts of weight gain, that's true. And we need to pay attention to it, ... Read more

7 out of 10 Americans Take a Prescription Drug: Study
Posted 27 Jun 2013 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, June 27 – Nearly 70 percent of Americans take prescription drugs, with antibiotics, antidepressants and painkillers being the most widely used, according to a new study. Researchers also found that more than half of patients take two prescription drugs, while 20 percent take five or more prescription medications. One other key finding: "As you get older you tend to get more prescriptions, and women tend to get more prescriptions than men," study author Dr. Jennifer St. Sauver, of the Mayo Clinic Center for the Science of Health Care Delivery, said in a Mayo news release. The findings come from an analysis of 2009 statistics from people living in Olmsted County, Minn., near the Mayo Clinic. St. Sauver believes the findings are comparable to people living elsewhere in the United States. According to the study, 17 percent of patients took antibiotics, 13 percent took ... Read more

Antidepressant Lessens Chemo-Related Pain
Posted 2 Apr 2013 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, April 2 – The antidepressant drug Cymbalta can help relieve chronic pain caused by certain cancer drugs, a new clinical trial reports. The study, appearing in the April 3 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, tested Cymbalta on patients with chronic cases of chemotherapy-related peripheral neuropathy – pain, tingling and numbness in the limbs that arises when certain chemo drugs damage the nerves. Of 115 patients who took the antidepressant for five weeks, 59 percent got some degree of pain relief, compared with 38 percent of patients given a drug-free placebo. Researchers said the findings support what some doctors have seen in everyday practice, since Cymbalta is already used to treat the chemo side effect. That use has been based on the fact that Cymbalta helps with other types of pain, said Dr. Michael Stubblefield, who was not involved in the study ... Read more

Psychiatric Drugs More Often Prescribed in the South
Posted 1 Feb 2013 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Feb. 1 – Use of psychiatric medications is most prevalent in the southern United States and least prevalent in the West, according to a new U.S. study. Although people living in the West are the least likely to use antipsychotics, antidepressants and stimulants, the Yale researchers found that the drugs' use is 40 percent higher in a large section of the South than in other parts of the country. The study authors attributed this discrepancy to variations in local access to health care and marketing efforts within the pharmaceutical industry. "The geographic patterns we identify are striking and map onto the patterns found for a host of other medical conditions and treatments, from cognitive decline to bypass surgery," Marissa King, assistant professor of organizational behavior at the Yale School of Management, said in a school news release. "Our work suggests that access to ... Read more

Antidepressant Cymbalta Might Ease Chemo-Linked Pain
Posted 4 Jun 2012 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, June 4 – Cancer patients on certain chemotherapies often experience a painful tingling in their extremities called peripheral neuropathy, and a new study suggests the antidepressant Cymbalta may be the first treatment to work against the condition. In the small study, 59 percent of patients who'd experienced peripheral neuropathy said that they gained relief after taking Cymbalta (duloxetine), compared to 39 percent who took a "dummy" pill. Taking Cymbalta daily "decreases chronic chemotherapy-induced neuropathy and pain severity in the majority of patients who take it and it improves function and quality of life," said study author Ellen Lavoie Smith, an assistant professor at the University of Michigan's School of Nursing. She said the drug is also "very well tolerated" by most patients. Smith spoke at a news briefing Sunday at the annual meeting of the American Society of ... Read more

Newer Antidepressants May Be Safe for Parkinson's Patients
Posted 11 Apr 2012 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, April 11 – Some of the newer antidepressants can help treat depression in people with Parkinson's disease without aggravating other disease symptoms such as tremor or rigidity, researchers have found. Nearly 1 million people in the United States are living with Parkinson's disease, a progressive movement disorder marked by tremor, slowness and/or rigidity. Parkinson's disease and depression tend to travel together, and there has been concern that some of the medications used to treat depression may worsen motor symptoms. A new study published online April 11 and in the April 17 print issue of Neurology shows that this is not the case, at least when it comes to the antidepressants Paxil (paroxetine) and Effexor (venlafaxine). Paxil is in the class of drugs known as SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) while Effexor is an SNRI (serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake ... Read more

Minorities, Medicare Recipients Less Likely to Get Antidepressants
Posted 9 Apr 2012 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, April 9 – Hispanics and blacks are less likely to be prescribed antidepressants than whites, and Medicare and Medicaid patients are less likely to receive the drugs than those with private insurance, a new study says. University of Michigan School of Public Health researchers examined data from 1993 to 2007 and found that whites were 1.5 times more likely to receive antidepressants than blacks or Hispanics with major depression. The study also found that Medicare and Medicaid patients were 31 percent and 38 percent less likely to be prescribed antidepressants than privately insured patients. Race didn't play a role in the type of antidepressants prescribed to patients, but insurance did. Medicare and Medicaid patients were 58 percent and 61 percent less likely to receive newer antidepressants than privately insured patients. Newer types of antidepressants such as serotonin ...

Best Antidepressant May Depend on Patient: Study
Posted 5 Dec 2011 by Drugs.com
TBD – Newer antidepressants seem to be about as effective as one another, a new analysis indicates. This suggests that the choice of which drug is appropriate for which patient should be made on the basis of such considerations as side effects, cost and patient preference. "They're all equally effective," said Dr. David Schlager, a clinical assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral science at Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine. "They're interchangeable except for side effects," he added, so psychiatrists do tend to "exploit the side-effect profile" to find suitable medications for individual patients, he added. According to the background information in the new study, appearing in the Dec. 6 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine, some 27 million people in the United States had taken antidepressants as of 2005.

Fear of Antidepressants Keep Many From Disclosing Depression
Posted 13 Sep 2011 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Sept. 13 – For a nation that seems ready to pop a pill for any ill, a new study suggests that the opposite seems true for some people with symptoms of depression, whose concerns about the side effects of antidepressants were the top reason they wouldn't disclose warning signs to their doctors. A phone survey of more than 1,000 adults who had previously participated in the California Behavioral Risk Factor Survey System, which probed depression-related beliefs, showed that 43 percent reported one or more reasons for not talking to their primary care physician about their depression. Nearly a quarter of them worried that their doctor would recommend antidepressants – the most frequently cited reason for withholding the information. Other stated barriers to sharing depressive symptoms included the belief that it's not a primary care physician's job to deal with emotional issues ... Read more

Certain Antidepressants Linked to Falls in Nursing Homes
Posted 26 Jul 2011 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, July 26 – In the days after they start taking non-SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) antidepressants, such as bupropion or venlafaxine, nursing home residents are at significantly greater risk for falls, according to a new study. Researchers found the increased risk for falls also applies to those who had a dosage increase of their current prescription. "Our results identify the days following a new prescription or increased dose of a non-SSRI antidepressant as a window of time associated with a particularly high risk of falling among nursing home residents," said study author Dr. Sarah D. Berry, a scientist at the Institute for Aging Research of Hebrew SeniorLife in Boston. More closely monitoring these nursing home residents for two days after a change in these antidepressants could help prevent falls, the researchers said. In conducting the study, recently ...

Antidepressant Use Rising as Psychotherapy Rates Fall
Posted 6 Dec 2010 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Dec. 6 – Even as fewer Americans have sought psychotherapy for their depression, antidepressant prescription rates have continued to climb in recent years, a new survey reveals. "This is an encouraging trend as it suggests that fewer depressed Americans are going without treatment," said study author Dr. Mark Olfson, a professor of clinical psychiatry at Columbia University/New York State Psychiatric Institute in New York City. "At the same time, however, the decline in psychotherapy raises the possibility that many depressed patients are not receiving optimal care." "While progress is being made in increasing the availability of depression care, a mismatch is opening up between clinical evidence and practice," Olfson cautioned. "For many depressed adults and youth, a combination of psychotherapy and antidepressants is the most effective approach. Yet, only about one-third of ... Read more

I almost wanted to call this something like "What Breastfeeding Means To Me" but it sounded too much like the grown-up version of the eighth-grade essay. Forgive me for plunging into stream of consciousness style here, but as much as I love this topic it's often difficult for me to say what I want to say about it without running in circles.
|We are VERY into breastfeeding at our house
There are many advantages to breastfeeding beyond providing nutrition, and if you are interested, I would love to share them with you. Perhaps I will even rave about them in a future post. Dr. Jen (one of my absolute favorite sources of terrific info) wrote a fabulous piece on newborns and why breastmilk is not food. Plus, breastmilk is just so darn useful . . . recently I cleared up multiple eye infections (my children's and my own) with "homemade" eye antibiotics. But that's not why I'm writing this.
Nor am I writing this to make anyone else feel inadequate. Although to be honest, I must admit I cringe a little when I first hear a fellow mom say "well, I tried, but I couldn't breastfeed because [fill in the blank with a reason that's not really a reason]." I'm not here to boast about my superior lactation skills. I know some women are unable to breastfeed due to medications, or a previous reduction, or past trauma . . . or they simply prefer to bottle feed because they decided that breastfeeding was not for them.
What I really want to share is how I evolved from "Ooh, nursing, yes . . . that's free, right? And formula is quite pricey? Okay, let's do that breastfeeding thing" to "Feeding your child your own milk, and watching her/him thrive on it, is the Most Fabulous Mommy Feeling Ever." Never did I anticipate that of all the myriad aspects of parenting swirling around me, nursing would be the thing to turn me on my head. I cannot separate mothering and breastfeeding. They are inexplicably intertwined for me, for us. It goes beyond feeding in a way that only another breastfeeding mother can understand.
Daughter #1 (Eva) came very close to being formula fed, as nursing her was not exactly easy or a joy at the beginning, but once we caught on it became just a part of our life. (See Feeding Baby for a bit more on this.) At one point in the middle of our latch issues I considered pumping exclusively and bottle feeding, but I'm sure that would have not lasted long. This likely would have nixed any chance of my second daughter or my son being breastfed either. Why? Because then I would have been a Formula Feeding Mom and never delved into all the benefits of breastfeeding, discovered LLL or other support groups, or become one of those people that comments on breastfeeding advice pages on Facebook at least once a day. I never would have known what it was really like. And I truly feel I would have been missing out. That is why I am writing this.
The first days with Eva were rough. The lactation consultant at the hospital where I delivered her quit that week. The nurse they sent in to "help" was uninformed, impatient, and mean. I ended up giving her formula, both in the hospital and at home during the first few days. I cried the first time I had to ask Hubby to go make her a bottle. I felt like a failure, a complete mess. I did see a lactation consultant when she was four days old, but she too was not very friendly, and knowing what I know now, gave some rather poor advice. One good thing came of that visit, however: She motivated me to pump. I went to Target and bought an electric boob pump (a pretty expensive experiment, given that I wasn't sure it would work, or even if it did, if I would continue). I now know this saved our breastfeeding relationship. I pumped like a crazy woman and started feeding with bottles of expressed milk. However, pumping and bottle-feeding proved to be way too much work—basically doing the job of a breastfeeding mom and a bottle-feeding mom simultaneously. I figured we would just make our lives easier and switch to formula. So, after a few more days of trying to get her to latch on, I gave up. I put away the pump, packed in its neat little black bag, and thought: That's it. I tried. This @#$% is harder than it looks. No wonder so many women can't breastfed. Now I am one of them.
This lasted about three days.
Following a teensy postpartum breakdown of tears, I frantically pulled the pump back out, put it together, and went all bovine. I made a renewed commitment to trying to latch Baby. I wandered the house shirtless and focused on nothing but getting that baby attached to a boob. She finally latched properly for the first time at about three weeks old (interestingly, in the middle of the night, when I wasn't even trying) and at just over a month she finally finished a sufficient meal directly from the breast.
Eva nursed through my second pregnancy and beyond. Daughter #2 (Julia) latched on immediately and sailed right through those first few days and weeks, probably because I was still nursing her sister (23 months at the time). I ended up tandem nursing for just over a year. Eva weaned at just over three; Julia at just over two. I was about four months pregnant with #3 when Julia stopped nursing.
Probably postpartum hormones thinking, but while in the hospital with little brother (Andrew), even after having successfully breastfed his sisters for a combined total of four years, I had a flash of panic: What if the milk never came in? What if I couldn't nurse this one as I did his sisters? What if it simply didn't work this time? (As I'm typing this, I'm balancing a five-month-old, 18-pound moose on my lap, so clearly not the case.) I struggled at the beginning with him, too . . . never did I dream that my third baby would have latch issues, weight gain issues, etc. But nursing and babies had become so connected for me that the thought of not being able to offer that to my last baby devastated me. So we pressed on, and we did it.
Okay, this is getting incredibly long, and I'm still not sure I'm saying what I set out to say. Putting this into writing is much more difficult than I thought. I love nursing my children. I cannot imagine parenting without breastfeeding. What I once considered just a way to feed a baby has become a game-changing act in my mothering gig. I especially love that my daughters think of mommies giving their babies milk not only as the right thing to do, or even the normal thing to do, but just The Thing To Do, period. It's just how mommies and babies work.
And they make that adorable little happy sound right before they latch on.
Now that I have been nursing almost five years continually (just a wee break of a few months between #2 and #3), I would have no idea how to bottle-feed a baby. Seriously. When you breastfeed, you don't need to worry if baby is actually hungry, or getting too much, or too little. Maybe he just wants to cuddle, but you offer to nurse and he accepts. It's the ultimate baby calmer. And sleep inducer. And excuse for Mommy to grab the baby and snuggle . . . which I think I'll go do right now.

A FEDERAL appeal court in the US on 15 May overturned a temporary injunction halting work on the Mount Graham Observatory in Arizona because it threatens endangered red squirrels which live only on the mountain (This Week, 7 April).
However, the legal battles are far from over. The judge who halted construction can issue a permanent ban, after a final hearing set for 16 July. The University of Arizona hopes to begin construction of the telescope after a Congressional hearing set for 26 June, but an official of the Sierra Club, a leading conservation body in the US, says: 'I think we're going to win (the case before the district court).'
The US General Accounting Office is also investigating the controversy. The squirrels inhabit the top of the mountain, the proposed site of the observatory.

Great Desk
TT from Manassas, VA – Verified Buyer
Sturdy desk except for the delivery. Somehow the first delivery got routed back to Wayfair by FedEx. Wayfair had to send it to me the second time (Great customer service). The carton box was totally bursted. The table top got dented at 2 places. The metal plate got bent but I was able to bend it back. It would be such a hassle for me to box it up and return it since the box and the packaging material were totally bursted. So I decided to keep it. Amazingly everything else stayed in tact. I have photos to show the condition of the package before I opened it. It's a good desk with great quality. I am pretty sure that this desk took 2 round trips. I am not sure if Wayfair inspected it before sending it back to me the 2nd time.
Great Desk
Andre from Boston, MA – Verified Buyer
This desk, after assembly, looks fabulous and is very functional. The assembly is slightly on the more difficult side, as attaching the bottom to the top desk area required power tools to accomplish. Also, an error made by the manufacturer, one vital piece was originally not shipped, but after a quick call to Jamie and the customer support team, the replacement part was promptly shipped out. I would certainly recommend this to a colleague or friend.
I'm glad I kept looking!
Jobless in CA from Fullerton, CA – Verified Buyer
After 2 weeks of searching extensively online at the library and in stores, I'm glad I didn't buy any other desk. This one is perfect for my needs. I just lost my job and needed to buy a computer for home to search for jobs. I needed a small, simple desk with just a single, flat top to give me the maximum amount of room for a printer, monitor and speakers since I only had a 4 ft. space for it in a bedroom and this desk is great. There's plenty of room for my legs under the desk and I can push the chair under it when not using it. I definitely chose the right desk. I did need help from a friend, however, to hold parts while assemblying it.
good to very good
Dr. Jay from Brewster, NY – Verified Buyer
Sturdy, nice curved surface and corners, nice surface for a synthetic. Kids can't poke their eyes on the corners! Downside - keyboard drawer kind of small, shakey and flimsy.
High Quality but no Keyboard Lock

ELIZABETHTON — Just days after the Elizabethton City Council breathed new life into the Watauga River Regional Water Authority, the authority's board of directors held a called meeting Monday to ratify the agreement and get the other customers on board.
Last Thursday, the City Council voted 4-3 to extend its commitment to buy 300,000 gallons of water per day from the WRRWA. The commitment had originally been for 20 years, but was extended to 30 years to meet the demands of attorneys who are preparing an issuance of bonds to finance the final phase of construction on a 2-million-gallon-per-day water plant at Wilbur Lake.
With the city in agreement, the WRRWA board of directors voted unanimously for the revised agreement Monday. Chairman Johnny Mills then signed the document. Mills called it "a historic day."
Two of the utility districts that are part of the water authority, South Elizabethton and Siam, will meet this week to consider the amended agreement.
Elizabethton Mayor Curt Alexander, a financial consultant with Edward Jones Investments, said it should take about 45 days to prepare the $8 million bond issue. Work on the water plant is about 85 percent complete, and projected completion is for this fall. Completion of the final phase of the project, the water intake at Wilbur Lake, is unknown because of poor soil conditions discovered in part of the lake bottom where the intake's foundation will be located.
Alexander said there were two concerns among council members during the deliberations prior to Thursday's decision. One was the lengthy extension of the city's obligations and the second was the changes made at the request of bond counsel in the depreciation schedule of the water plant, particularly the change in the depreciation rate of the water lines from 70 years to 50 years.
The change raised the cost of the water, but Alexander said the city's costs should go down as the list of depreciated items reach the time limits on the schedule.
The board and its attorney, Tom McKee, expressed appreciation for the work done by the attorney's on the bond issue, especially Erick Herrin, who provided counsel for the city commission and briefed the body before Thursday's vote.
"Without Erick's explanations, I don't think it would have passed," Alexander said.

I only have a filter for people who do not consistently beg to be belittled, ridiculed, insulted, and demeaned.
I may believe people, as a whole, should be treated fairly but I also believe those same people are idiots.
Not a one of us is talking about my question though, myself included (imagine that.)The question was serious - aside from the Red Sea highway, does the bible ever have god intervening on behalf of a nation? There's an eclipse (Jericho?) but that's hardly an intervention in a nations affairs. Other than the Jews (and boy have they ever paid for it), has he ever actually acted directly on any group? This whole "bible god is a great guy! YAY JESUS!" thing gets thinner and thinner.

A magnetic resonance imaging scan of the heart, called cardiac MRI, is an important tool for diagnosing and even treating congenital heart disease, a heart condition a child is born with.
Cardiac MRI is a noninvasive imaging procedure that uses magnetic technology, not radiation, to create detailed images of the heart. The procedure provides your child's heart team with high-resolution images of the moving heart and blood vessels, so we can see how the heart looks and functions.
At Children's National Heart Institute, our specialized hybrid MRI suite combines MRI and cardiac catheterization, allowing us to obtain detailed diagnostic images and perform cardiac catheterizations in the least invasive, safest way possible.
Our heart team is pioneering new ways to harness the power of MRI, so we can provide you with the safest, most effective diagnosis and treatment possible. In our hybridsuite, we combine the powerful imaging technology of an MRI with the precision and detail of the catheterization lab.
Features of our cardiac MRI hybrid suite include:
While every patient differs, here's a general idea of what you can expect on the day of the procedure:

Some good news for Rockford drivers can be found at the gas pump.
According to GasBuddy.com, gas prices have fallen on average 5.4 cents in the past week, leveling off at $3.65/gal. Still, it's higher than the national average, which is $3.59/gal.
Even so, today's average is 31 cents lower than at this time last year and as one analyst says, football fans enjoyed the savings. "There's a lot of extra hot dogs and beer that can be consumed instead of being redirected into the tanks of American motorists" says Senior Petroleum Analyst, Patrick DeHaan.
DeHaan warns the situation in Syria could affect prices in a negative way.

WE KNEW things were bad, but in fact they are worse. For years, the US has been underestimating the rate of new HIV infections by a whopping 40 per cent.
Until now, most countries, including the US, estimated the number of new cases by applying correction factors to the latest data on national HIV prevalence.
The discrepancy came to light courtesy of a blood test developed by the US Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia. By measuring the proportion of antibodies in an individual's blood that are primed to fight HIV, it reveals when they were infected. A larger fraction indicates a more recent infection. When applied to US blood samples from 2006, the test indicates there were 56,300 infections that year, not 40,000 as assumed (The Journal of the American Medical Association, DOI: 10.1001/jama.300.5.520).
Are vast numbers of HIV infections being missed globally? It's ...

Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 PutlockerNovamovLinksHDDRS
The OutRun amateur accept consistently relied on the archetypal architecture assumption of simple to learn, but harder to master. Coast 2 Coast is no different. As an arcade racer, amphitheatre this bold is in actuality simple; you've got the accelerator and the brakes, and you beacon your car with the larboard analog stick. If that's too simple for you, you can drive with a chiral transmission, but those of you who accept a added attainable acquaintance will be able to aces automated transmission. The bold is ambrosial affectionate if it comes to bumping walls or cutting on bouncer balustrade or added cars because you can usually balance ambrosial quickly, but if you in actuality alloy up, your car will go aerial up into the air afore landing, causing you to lose a lot of acceleration and time. New to Coast 2 Coast is a "slipstream" affection that lets you abstract abaft cars, which in admission increases your acceleration afterwards application added power. Drafting works somewhat abnormally in this game, though, as the bulk of amplitude abaft anniversary car you can use for drafting seems too big.
As in all the antecedent OutRun games, you can calmly put your car into a powerslide by borer the anchor and axis to one accessory as you go into a turn. As you drift, you can administer a baby bulk of ascendancy over the car to get about slower cartage to the alfresco or inside. You don't lose acceleration as you slide, but you don't beforehand either, so as the bold gets added difficult, you'll allegation to be authentic about if it's to your advantage to alluvion and if it's bigger for you to get about a bend the age-old way. As you hunt the beforehand over and over again, you'll alpha to bulk out the ideal curve to crop about anniversary curve--the admiration to admission your adeptness gives Coast 2 Coast the aloft addictive above as the antecedent amateur in the series. There are 30 altered beforehand in the game, all with colorful, absorbing backgrounds, including beforehand breadth you hunt aloft the Golden Aboideau Bridge, alternating a beachfront city, through a redwood forest, and through a neon-lit "casino town" that resembles about like Las Vegas or Atlantic City.

There are aswell time beforehand modes breadth you can hunt adjoin the alarm or apparition cars, but the meat of the single-player bold is in the Coast 2 Coast mode. In this mode, there are banderole man challenges, which crave you to complete a alternation of contest adjoin computer-controlled cars and sometimes participate in alluvion or slipstream challenges. There are aswell adherent challenges, which crave you to complete missions that are agnate to those in the affection beforehand admission to alleviate new girls and a new alternation of challenges. Coast 2 Coast aswell offers an arcade admission breadth you can play the arcade adaptation of OutRun2 SP. It sounds like a ton of content, but to be fair, the contest and challenges all tend to feel the aloft afterwards a while, with the game's adversity ramping up arid as you get added into the campaign. Thankfully, the addictive attributes of the bold is acceptable to accumulate you interested, even if it becomes attainable you've aboveboard ambrosial abundant aggregate the bold has to offer. As you complete races, you'll access points, or OutRun miles, which you can use in the game's affectation to alleviate bags of content.

The affectation aswell lets you acquirement new tracks, primarily the about-face versions of the beforehand from the single-player game. You can acquirement altered colors for the cars, too. You'll aswell use credibility to alleviate remixes of the accomplishments music tracks, including the aboriginal mixes of the songs from the aboriginal OutRun arcade game. Because how abundant is attainable in the showroom, it could crop you in actuality a bit of antagonism to alleviate aggregate the bold has to offer. The beforehand and cars all attending beautiful, and the bold offers a nice faculty of acceleration to boot. While there are no split-screen modes attainable on the PS2 or Xbox, multiplayer action is attainable online for up to six players or through arrangement link. The PSP aswell supports six-player multiplayer both online and through bounded ad hoc play. The online citizenry is a little sparse, but our bouts of head-to-head antagonism yielded acceptable after-effects on all platforms. Network play was banal and lag-free, and the bold antechamber gives the bold architect a bulk of options aloft just allotment the course. You can bind cars of assertive classes, and accredit or attenuate catch-up handicaps as able-bodied as collisions. Players are assigned rank credibility depending on how able-bodied they do, and if you assurance in online, you can aswell analysis the accepted top array on assorted courses as you play the single-player game. Coast 2 Coast for the PS2 and Xbox appears to use the aloft cartoon engine as its predecessor. Not abundant has afflicted aback OutRun2 as far as the visuals go, but the environments and the cars still attending great, with a acceptable bulk of detail and beam on the car bodies, as able-bodied as some nice smoke advancing off the tires as you alluvion about corners.

Dr. Sudoku, however, is the aboriginal for the GBA. Aback sudoku isn't traveling to change from one belvedere to the next, it all in actuality comes down to what arrangement of interface and actualization the bold has. And Dr. Sudoku has a ambrosial solid affection set. The insidious Dr. Sudoku is acute your ultimate demise. OK, we're lying. He's just got a lot of numbers for you to beam at. Confused by all this sudoku talk? OK, we'll aback up a bit. Sudoku adeptness attending like a algebraic adaptation of a crossword puzzle, but it's in actuality all about logic. There are simple rules that actuate breadth a bulk can accurately sit on the sudoku grid. Anniversary addle starts you out with a few numbers abounding in, and you use those to deduce breadth the added numbers go. Like a lot of good, addictive puzzles, it's simple to apprentice the ropes. If you're new to all this, Dr. Sudoku has a abrupt tutorial that should get you up to speed. It aswell has a bulk of admonition accessories that about accomplish you feel like you're cheating. You can baddest any bulk from a accessory agenda and curve will extend from that number's positions, finer bridge out any areas breadth those numbers couldn't be placed in added spots on the grid. It's absolute handy, but it in actuality just makes things too easy. You can aswell abode addendum in some of the squares to denote attainable numbers for anniversary square. The controls in the bold are ambrosial streamlined, but, really, a D pad and four buttons just isn't the best way to play sudoku. On the options accessory of things, Dr. Sudoku is a ambrosial stout package. There are a thousand puzzles in the game, but you can aswell actualize your own sudoku puzzles and save them to the cart.

And if you're searching for a handheld adaptation of it, get one with touch-screen support. But if you don't accept a DS or a PDA or something, and you're searching for something you can tote about in your Bold Boy Micro, Dr. Sudoku can a lot of in actuality admonition you out.Self-professed hole-in-the-wall bold developer MadMinute Amateur bogus in actuality a burst at the alpha of 2005 with Crop Command: The Action of Bull Run. Although the aggregation may be a tiny accouterments with just two bulk designers in Adam Bryant and Norb Timpko, both the bold itself and the War3D engine that powered it got acclaim from hardcore wargamers and Civil War buffs. That success allegedly wasn't a fluke, either, aback the afresh arise sequel, Crop Command: Added Manassas, does an appropriately acceptable job at depicting accession key action in the war amid the states. Although aggregate will feel a abstract "been there, done that" to those who played the aboriginal game, hardcore wargames are rarely this attainable and enjoyable. Accidental action gamers adeptness acquisition that MadMinute has too abundant of the absolute Civil War in its Civil War game, as the architecture has added in accepted with an old Avalon Acropolis lath bold than the archetypal action computer game, but you can't artifice with either the playability or the absolute accuracy. Ah, so this is breadth Bo and Luke got their absorption for painting the roof of the Accepted Lee. All 18 academic scenarios, added those aerated up with the attainable battles arch admission (there is no multiplayer), focus on recreating how Confederate accepted Robert E. Lee and his Northern Virginia Army bankrupt out of Richmond in August of 1862 and pushed the Union to the border of defeat at Added Man Watch Breaking Dawn Part 2 Online assas (also alleged the Added Action of Bull Run). Even admitting these engagements play out during a abandoned month, abandon are consistently swapped and action scenarios from abhorrent to arresting to a alloy of the two are depicted, so you get a abounding actualization of the actualization of the absolute Civil War. One moment you're brigadier accepted Jubal A. Aboriginal propping up Confederate arms in "Holding the Center," and the next you're abduction Groveton as federal brigadier Accepted John P. Hatch in "Push Him Like the Devil." Absolute accurateness appears to be asleep on, at atomic if we can anamnesis what we apprehend in those Shelby Foote books abounding years ago. There are a scattering of abstract scenarios, but they don't crop the "what if?" blueprint aloft the boundaries of the credible. Combat feels authentic aloft the basics of ensuring that regiments and commanders abide authentic to the textbooks. Accession is crucial. You allegation to get your arms into the adapted position and abode your infantry in the ideal atom to both accretion a acceptable battlefront acme and an ideal breadth for an enemy-breaking bayonet charge. This isn't in actuality easy. Maps are sprawling diplomacy (which get the job done accurately admitting accepting ambrosial dated, with bleared troops and inclement animations) abounding with battle-affecting concrete actualization such as forests, roads, walls, and farmhouses. Keeping bound rein on your men is aswell difficult. While the interface and graphical engine accord you accomplished command of camera bend and units, there are a lot of troops to manage. Calibration is stepped down from reality, with columns of a brace of dozen soldiers apery brigades, so you don't accept to accord with battles on par with the ambagious majesty of something such as Rome: Absolute War. But aback there are still swarms of little red and dejected guys out there to administer if the accoutrements go off, the diplomacy can get adequately animated adequately fast. The bigger battles during the final two canicule of Watch Breaking Dawn Part 2 Online the Manassas beforehand are in actuality huge, admitting still manageable. Also, Command & Conquer-style action didn't arise in Virginia in 1862, and it doesn't arise here. Keying action activity on absolute action and timing is a compound for adversity because soldiers artlessly don't move that smartly or that quickly. You accept to accept a accepted plan based on a accepted action no added specific than, say, fending off Johnny Reb' by battlefront from the aegis afforded by a bedrock bank and not accumulation all your hopes on clockwork assemblage accession attainable in added real-time action games. This accurately brings to action the anarchy of the boilerplate Civil War battle, but it aswell leads to a assertive affiliated of acrimony in gamers acclimated to the ascertain movement of armies aloft battlefields. Battles are abundant added affiliated than you would think, though, abundantly acknowledgment to ablaze bogus intelligence. Army commanders do a solid job of arising orders in your annual if the cutting starts, so you don't allegation to action yourself with micromanagement. Overlook to put a army into a able battlefront bandage if affective into battlefront position--which is about assured in aloft battles, as you tend to be ambidextrous out orders to at atomic a half-dozen brigades at any acclimatized time--and the administrator takes over and does it for you. He aswell accouterment the bandage into ideal battlefront position, swings in about to appetite a new adversary cavalcade if the aboriginal is broadc Watch Breaking Dawn Part 2 Online ast or destroyed, and is quick to adjustment his men to acknowledge if ambushed. Essentially, the appetence for self-preservation bliss in smartly whenever you bead the ball. Ascendancy freaks adeptness not acknowledge this, as it can adequately be said that aspects of the bold run on autopilot.

Do the clouds bring shadows of doubt?
Bring Your Own Device

Is this a trend to be embraced? How is it best leveraged? Can it be controlled. Should it be? These are just a few of the questions to be answered in this track.
