ABSTRACT: Pulmonary nocardiosis is a rare respiratory infection which commonly affects immunocompromised patients but also in immunocompetent hosts. The clinical manifestation is variable and endobronchial nocardiosis is a very rare condition. We report a case of endobronchial nocardiosis associated with the presence of a broncholith. The pathogenesis and the treatment of this condition are discussed below.Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace / Fondazione clinica del lavoro, IRCCS [and] Istituto di clinica tisiologica e malattie apparato respiratorio, Università di Napoli, Secondo ateneo 01/2009; 69(4):183-5.
Article: Bronchiolitis obliterans organising pneumonia (BOOP) in a lung cancer patient after lobectomy.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A 79 year-old patient with lung cancer underwent a standard thoracotomy and lobectomy. Postoperatively, he developed low-grade fever and dyspnoea. Chest X-rays showed progressive lung infiltrates, which was subsequently diagnosed to be Bronchiolitis Obliterans Organizing Pneumonia (BOOP) by transbronchial lung biopsy. He responded well to corticosteroid therapy. The case report is followed by a brief discussion on BOOP in association with lung cancer and thoracotomy.Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace / Fondazione clinica del lavoro, IRCCS [and] Istituto di clinica tisiologica e malattie apparato respiratorio, Università di Napoli, Secondo ateneo 04/2005; 63(1):55-8.

Article: Chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis. A report of 9 cases with analysis of clinical picture, risk factors and treatment for outcome correlation.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Nine patients with chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis (CNPA) were analyzed retrospectively. Eight cases had been treated with itraconazole. Four patients had received intravenous amphotericin B (AMB), three sequentially with itraconazole and one as monotherapy. Three patients died after 1, 2 and 24 weeks of therapy. Six responded to therapy and survived 3 to 58 months after treatment. Only the total number of risk factors was found to be statistically significant in relation to a fatal outcome. The mean number of risk factors was 5.33 for fatal cases compared to 2.83 for treatment responders. The presence of five or more risk factors and two individual risk factors, hypoalbuminemia less than 27 g/L and history of dual pulmonary mycobacterioses, were 100% predictive of mortality in our patients. The overall clinical picture of fatal CNPA cases resembles closely that of acute invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in severely immunocompromised subjects.Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace / Fondazione clinica del lavoro, IRCCS [and] Istituto di clinica tisiologica e malattie apparato respiratorio, Università di Napoli, Secondo ateneo 07/2001; 56(3):202-7.
Article: Outcomes of patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis treated with ofloxacin/levofloxacin-containing regimens[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To analyze outcomes of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) treated with ofloxacin/levofloxacin-containing regimens. From February 1990 through June 1997, 63 MDR-TB patients (with bacillary resistance to at least isoniazid and rifampin in vitro) were analyzed retrospectively. Twenty-two patients (34.9%) had had no previous antituberculosis chemotherapy. Each patient received either ofloxacin (53) or levofloxacin (10) even though 13 patients had bacilli resistant to ofloxacin in vitro. The other accompanying drugs mainly included aminoglycosides, cycloserine, ethionamide/prothionamide, and pyrazinamide. Sputum smear and culture examinations for acid-fast bacilli (AFB) were performed monthly for the initial 6 months and then at 2- to 3-month intervals until the end of treatment. Comparison was made between clinical successes and failures using univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses for the following variables: age, sex, presence of cavitation, extent of disease, sputum smear positivity, in vitro resistance to ofloxacin, in vitro resistance to streptomycin and/or ethambutol, treatment adherence, and the number of drugs per regimen. Fifty-one patients (81.0%) were cured, nine patients (14.3%) failed, and three patients (4.7%) died. For the entire group, the mean duration of treatment was 14.0 months, and the mean number of drugs was 4.7. Mean durations of chemotherapy in successful and failed patients were 14.5 and 14.2 months, respectively. Mean time for sputum smear and culture conversions were 1.7 and 2.1 months, respectively. Only cavitation, resistance to ofloxacin, and poor adherence were found to be variables independently associated with adverse outcomes (p < 0.05; odds ratios = 15.9, 13.5, 12.8, respectively). Negative sputum cultures after 2 and 3 months of therapy were 100% predictive of cure. Positive sputum cultures after 2 and 3 months were 52.3% and 84.6% predictive of failure, respectively. One patient (2.1%) relapsed after apparent cure. Twenty-five patients experienced adverse drug reactions, but only 12 of them needed drug modifications. Most MDR-TB patients can be treated effectively with ofloxacin/levofloxacin-containing regimens. Presence of cavitation, resistance to ofloxacin in vitro, and poor adherence to therapy portend treatment failure. Monitoring monthly sputum culture for AFB in the initial months of chemotherapy helps predict clinical outcomes.Chest 03/2000; 117(3):744-51. DOI:10.1378/chest.117.3.744 · 7.13 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Liver toxicity is a common side effect of antituberculosis (anti-TB) drugs. We studied the differences in liver dysfunction observed during anti-TB treatment between hepatitis B virus carriers (HBV) and noncarriers. Three hundred twenty-four patients on anti-TB drugs were recruited and followed up for 1 year. Forty-three patients with HBV and 276 non-HBV patients were included for analysis. Liver function tests and viral markers were monitored monthly. Liver biopsy was requested whenever the alanine transaminase (ALT) was persistently abnormal. Eighty-six HBV carriers who were not given anti-TB drugs were chosen as a second control and evaluated prospectively. The incidence of liver dysfunction was significantly higher in HBV carriers given anti-TB drugs (34.9%) when compared to noncarriers (9.4%, P <.001) and with HBV carriers not given anti-TB drugs (8.1%, P <.001). For patients given anti-TB drugs, HBV carriers who developed liver dysfunction were younger (P =.011) and had more severe liver injury compared with noncarriers (P =.008). By multiple logistic regression analysis, age (P =.002) and hepatitis B infection (P <.001) were the only 2 significant risk factors for hepatotoxicity related to anti-TB therapy.Hepatology 01/2000; 31(1):201-6.

ABSTRACT: A total of 562 patients with lung cancer was evaluated by fibreoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) by three bronchoscopic diagnostic procedures: biopsy, bronchial brushing and bronchial washing. Endoscopically visible tumours (EV) were detected in 264, while 257 had endoscopically nonvisible tumours > or = 2 cm in diameter and FOB was done without fluoroscopy because of limited availability (ENV). Forty-one had small (< 2 cm), endoscopically nonvisible tumours with FOB performed under uniplanar fluoroscopy (ENV + F). The overall diagnostic yield rates of FOB were 98.1%, 61.5% and 58.5% for the EV, ENV and ENV + F cases, respectively. Reviewing the differential yield rates of the three diagnostic techniques and comparing them with the results of previous studies led to the following conclusions. (1) Combinations of biopsy with brushing and biopsy with washing can diagnose more than 95% of all fibreoptic bronchoscopy positive cases with endoscopically visible tumours. Performing either of these combinations may be more cost-effective than doing all three techniques routinely. (2) For cases with endoscopically nonvisible tumours, performance of all three diagnostic techniques is recommended, especially when fibreoptic bronchoscopy is performed without fluoroscopic guidance, as washing and brushing seem to compensate for a lower yield of the biopsy. (3) For tumours < 2 cm in diameter, knowledge on the diagnostic efficacy of fibreoptic bronchoscopy was limited owing to the small size of previous studies. The yield of 58.5% for fibreoptic bronchoscopy in these patients with performance of all three diagnostic procedures was comparatively high. It could be further increased to 75.6% if supplemented by percutaneous needle biopsy when fibreoptic bronchoscopy turned out to be nondiagnostic. If available, the use of transbronchial needle aspiration may also increase the overall diagnostic yield of fibreoptic bronchoscopy in these cases.Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace / Fondazione clinica del lavoro, IRCCS [and] Istituto di clinica tisiologica e malattie apparato respiratorio, Università di Napoli, Secondo ateneo 10/1999; 54(5):394-8.
Article: Report of eight cases of pulmonary actinomycosis and their treatment with imipenem-cilastatin.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Studies on the efficacy of antimicrobial agents against actinomycosis in vivo have been limited apart from those involving penicillin. A prospective ministudy on the efficacy of imipenem-cilastatin in the treatment of pulmonary actinomycosis was performed based on preliminary encouraging in vitro and in vivo data. Eight patients were diagnosed as having pulmonary actinomycosis using fibreoptic bronchoscopy (7) and percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (1) in the authors' unit between 1994 and 1996. Each patient received a 4-week course of imipenem-cilastatin that comprised 2 weeks of intravenously administered drug (500 mg at 8-hourly intervals) and 2 weeks of intramuscularly administered drug (500 mg at 12-hourly intervals). Seven patients showed a very good clinical and radiographic response as well as bronchoscopically-documented treatment success. Treatment failed in one patient. Amongst the former group, one patient was lost to follow-up, another relapsed 3 months after treatment cessation and the rest remained relapse-free when followed-up for 18-44 months (mean 30.2 months). Furthermore, all patients showed good clinical tolerance and no abnormal treatment-related laboratory findings. The favourable outcome for most patients in this mini-study suggest that a 4-week parenteral course of imipenem-cilastatin is an efficacious treatment for pulmonary actinomycosis. This antimicrobial regimen might be a promising alternative to the time-honoured long-course treatment with intravenous and oral penicillin.Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace / Fondazione clinica del lavoro, IRCCS [and] Istituto di clinica tisiologica e malattie apparato respiratorio, Università di Napoli, Secondo ateneo 05/1999; 54(2):126-9.
Article: A case of concomitant tuberculosis and sarcoidosis with mycobacterial DNA present in the sarcoid lesion[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A 35-year-old Chinese woman initially presented with histologically and bacteriologically confirmed tuberculous lymphadenitis. She was also found to have thrombocytopenia, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase, and bilateral lung infiltrates. After 15 months of antituberculosis treatment, despite resolution of the cervical lymphadenopathy, she started to experience dyspnea. Chest radiograph appearance, thrombocyte count, and liver biochemistry had all deteriorated as well. Histologic findings from tissues obtained via transbronchial biopsy and open lung biopsy were consistent with sarcoidosis but also showed the presence of mycobacterial DNA by the polymerase chain reaction. She subsequently achieved a very good response clinically, radiographically, hematologically, and biochemically with 1-year of corticosteroid treatment for her sarcoidosis, and she remained relapse-free afterwards. The concomitant presence of tuberculosis and sarcoidosis in this patient together with the presence of mycobacterial DNA in the sarcoid lesion reiterate the possibility that mycobacteria or some of its components may be capable of inducing the immune response and the pathologic changes of sarcoidosis.Chest 09/1998; 114(2):626-9.

ABSTRACT: Four non-AIDS patients with pulmonary cryptococcus infection who could not tolerate amphotericin B treatment were given oral fluconazole at a dose of 600 mg once daily for 4-5 weeks followed by 400 mg once daily for 10-12 weeks resulting in cure. All patients did not have relapse of disease when followed-up for 8-24 months after cessation of treatment. The very good tolerance of oral fluconazole by these patients suggests that such effective monotherapy should be evaluated further in non-AIDS patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis.Drugs under experimental and clinical research 02/1996; 22(1):25-8.

ABSTRACT: Nine Chinese patients with severe asthma who were dependent on a systemic oral steroid for control were given oral methotrexate at a dose of 7.5 mg on alternate days for two weeks, followed by 15 mg once weekly. Only six patients were evaluable; they had received methotrexate for 6 to 24 months. All six patients could have reduction of daily oral prednisolone dosage by 5-15 mg (mean: 10.4 mg). Only four patients, however, had > or = 15% improvement of their best peak expiratory flow rates compared with baseline levels, though all six patients had symptomatic improvement. These beneficial effects were, however, transient and persisted only during methotrexate therapy. Four patients had liver enzyme changes and discontinuation of therapy was required in one patient. One patient also had infective spondylitis secondary to Salmonella bacteremia. Thus low-dose oral methotrexate may be useful in selected patients with severe steroid-dependent asthma with careful monitoring for response and drug toxicity.Drugs under experimental and clinical research 01/1996; 22(6):317-21.

ABSTRACT: A 67 year old woman presented with miliary tuberculosis. She was treated with streptomycin, isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol and pyrazinamide. However, she developed rifampicin-induced thrombocytopenia after 6 weeks of treatment, and skin rash, blood eosinophilia and pulmonary infiltrates after 8 weeks of therapy. The latter was found to be ethambutol related. Additional evidence, including blood and sputum eosinophilia and the rapidity of its response to corticosteroid, suggested that the pulmonary infiltrates might also be eosinophilic in nature. To the best of our knowledge, this constitutes the first report of such adverse drug reaction, induced by ethambutol.European Respiratory Journal 06/1995; 8(5):866-8. · 7.13 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: 3 patients with mycobacterial lung infections, one due to Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare and 2 due to M. tuberculosis, developed ciprofloxacin-induced acute renal dysfunction while receiving the drug together with other antimycobacterial agents. These episodes took place 8-10 days after commencement of therapy and recovered spontaneously after cessation of all antimycobacterial drugs for 2-8 weeks. No recurrence was noted when patients were restarted on regimens that did not contain ciprofloxacin.Tubercle and Lung Disease 05/1995; 76(2):173-5. DOI:10.1016/0962-8479(95)90564-2

Article: Ciprofloxacin in the management of pulmonary tuberculosis in the face of hepatic dysfunction.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Twenty-five patients who had extensive pulmonary tuberculosis and hepatitis induced by antituberculosis drugs were treated with ciprofloxacin together with other relatively non-hepatotoxic drugs, either during the interim phase awaiting recovery of liver function in some, or as definitive therapy as required by the compromised hepatic status of others. Only 22 patients were assessable. All tolerated ciprofloxacin well during the phase of hepatic dysfunction. All patients improved with these ciprofloxacin-containing regimens, but the optimal dosage, specific efficacy and long-term safety of the drug in such cases require further evaluation.Drugs under experimental and clinical research 02/1995; 21(2):79-83.

Bio and Links
I started out in the Air Force for a short time in the early 1980's, had a 15 year break and now I'm active duty with the PA Army National Guard (AGR) in an Apache (AH-64D) Attack Reconnaissance Battalion (soon to retire). My family has served in the military since the French & Indian War, all from Pennsylvania, down to two of my sons who served in the PA National Guard.
I have been involved with genealogy since around 1982 and have published several books on area cemeteries as well as local history. It has been my goal to document as many cemeteries in my area as possible before much of the information is lost to time. Besides transcribing cemeteries I have recently found the value in photographing headstones as a way to help preserve this valuable information for future generations. It seems that most families have that one person who seems to answer a calling in life to be the family historian- I guess that's me as well as for my wife's family.
What I find incredible- I went from using a typewriter and carbon paper in the early 1980's, to now being able to take a photo of a headstone and upload it to this site instantly while in the cemetery, from my iPhone.
If you want to see why what we do is so important and photographing headstones in order to preserve the information for future generations is vital, check out
Blough Cemetery
to see how a cemetery's condition can change in 15 years. This is NOT a numbers game- Again, it is a quest to preserve our heritage for future generations.
Now for the "Fine Print...:"
1) If you suggest any corrections/links, PLEASE use the edit link on the memorial and include all pertinent information. DO NOT e-mail suggestions, corrections or photo requests directly to me. Also, if I have created a memorial that is a relative, please feel free to ask to have it transferred. Just be sure to include your member number and relationship. If transferred, would appreciate any information that I have added remain intact after transfer. If I do not transfer a memorial, it is only because it is a relative of mine as well, unless you're more closely or directly related.
2) If I have a photo on here, I am the copyright holder unless I cite the source in the caption from another contributor. If it is a photo that I own, please feel free to use it in your own personal family tree such as Ancestry.com. HOWEVER, on any of my photos, be sure to cite the source to give proper credit.
3) When I add memorials for non-relatives, I try to be as complete and accurate as possible, and I do so with the same care and respect as I would for my own family member.
4) If I post a photo on a memorial in which you had already posted one, please don't take offense- sometimes additional photos under other conditions (ie- light, weather, etc.) can provide a whole different perspective. Many times I've swapped out my own photos when conditions were different the second time around and the new photo had more detail, especially with worn stones. If you are the owner of that memorial and don't want someone else's photos just ask and I will remove it. Likewise, if you have a photo to add to mine that can help enhance the memorial, please feel free to contribute.
5) Please show proper etiquette when it comes to people volunteering their time and gas. A simple thank you goes a long way. If you want multiple monuments photographed, please take the time to create a memorial for each person rather than attach a message to one request asking for multiple photos or "everyone else in that cemetery with the same surname."
6) Through my publisher I have published over a dozen books just on cemetery transcriptions alone, taking the time to carefully transcribe hundreds of cemeteries. I've noticed that people have taken that work to enter memorials "en masse" and are then uncooperative when it comes to transferring, correcting, linking and editing these memorials for family members and other researchers. This is not a numbers game so I would encourage a team approach in this project.
7) I will post obituaries to my memorials as long as the proper citation is made to give the proper credit for the source. If family members want their information private, then they should consider not having it published in the local newspaper/website and funeral home website. There is no legal expectation to privacy when the information has been made public. Death certificates are public record as well. As long as these sources are properly cited there should not be an issue in regards to copyright laws.
8) The mountains of Southwestern Pennsylvania can be brutal during the winter. But with snowbrush in hand, that doesn't keep me from fulfilling requests. Unfortunately the quality of my photos in the winter months isn't normally up to the standard that I set for myself. Please- don't hesitate to ask for a re-take during the summer. Just send me a reminder.
I appreciate all of the hard work my fellow volunteers and contributors have made to this site!

I would like to extend my gratitude to you for taking the time to link the picture of my grandfather's memorial on this website. I am in the Army and not able to visit the grave. My grandfather was a great man, and is loved by many, who are also scattered about the states. I was happy to see this and have shared the link with other relatives.
Thank you,

Six charged for allegedly prostituting teen runaway
Published: Saturday, June 1, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 31, 2013 at 11:34 p.m.
Tuscaloosa Police say that a teenager was prostituted after she ran away from her father's home in April.
The girl, 15, is from a nearby town and was visiting her father, said TPD spokesman Sgt. Brent Blankley. He reported to police on April 30 that she had run away.
Investigators with TPD's juvenile division located the girl on May 18 and learned that she had been staying at several different hotels and private homes.
"During this time, investigators believe the female was prostituted out by different individuals," Blankley said.
Six men have been charged with rape and sodomy in connection with the investigation. Information will be presented to a grand jury about other individuals, said juvenile investigator Sgt. Michael Chaisson, that could lead to charges of promoting prostitution.
Suspects who have been arrested so far include:
Christopher Lacell Lee, 18, was charged with second-degree rape and second-degree sodomy on May 22.
Darnell Lucious Jr., 18, charged with second-degree rape and second-degree sodomy on May 22.
Michael Antonio Long, 19, was charged with second-degree rape on May 22.
Tavares Jermaine Nixon, 35, was charged with second-degree rape on May 24.
Wahdrecus Jaamal Morgan, 21, was charged with second-degree rape on May 30.
Kenton Jamaal Collins, 29, was charged with second-degree rape and second-degree sodomy on May 30.
All of the suspects are from Tuscaloosa. Blankley said that the investigation is ongoing and that further arrests are likely.

2015 Ole Miss Baseball Schedule Released
OXFORD, Miss. – The Ole Miss baseball team will play 21 games against teams that competed in the NCAA Tournament last season, including five games against teams that advanced to the 2014 College World Series, head coach Mike Bianco announced Wednesday.
The Rebels will play a grueling 56-game schedule in 2015, featuring 21 games (37.5 percent) against teams with an RPI inside the top 30 last season. Of the Rebels' 56 games, 31 will be hosted at beautiful Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field, where the Rebels went 27-7 last season and won the NCAA Oxford Regional.

CBD Photo Gallery: Allen, Orvis Power Rebels Past Frogs
OMAHA, Neb. — When they got to the TD Ameritrade Park Thursday afternoon, Ole Miss first baseman Sikes Orvis excitedly turned to roommate Will Allen and told him to look at the flags in centerfield.
Instead of furiously blowing in as they have been for nearly the entire 2014 College World Series, the flags were lazily blowing out. Orvis and Allen took advantage against TCU leading the Rebels to a 6-4 victory to survive another elimination game — Ole Miss' fourth elimination game in just over two weeks.

College World Series One-On-One: Ole Miss C/DH Will Allen
OMAHA, Neb. — Ole Miss (48-20) brought out the bats, knocking 11 hits to keep its season alive with a 6-4 victory over TCU (48-18) Thursday night at TD Ameritrade Park.
The Rebels bullpen allowed one hit in 5.2 innings after starter Sam Smith struggled, but it was the veteran boppers in the middle of the Ole Miss lineup that were the difference.
Senior catcher Will Allen, who had to DH due to a bum shoulder, and junior first baseman Sikes Orvis powered the Rebels. The roommates combined for six hits and five RBI. Allen finished 3-for-5 with a two-run double and the game-winning RBI single in the seventh inning to put Ole Miss ahead for good.
After the game, Allen talked about the Ole Miss offense coming alive and how they got wide-eyed when getting to the ballpark and seeing the wind blowing out today.
Will Allen also discussed the job of the Rebels bullpen and the differences of being the designated hitter rather than being behind the dish. He also talked about his relationship with Sikes Orvis and how the team is staying loose despite facing elimination four times in two weeks.
And Allen was all over Ole Miss' preseason rankings in the SEC West and how the Rebels are proving the critics wrong.

I have known Erin for fifteen years, and had the privilege of witnessing her transformation firsthand. I've been inspired by her weight loss, but even more by the happiness and confidence that she radiates. It's truly infectious. I began working out with Erin this summer, and am now eating better and moving around a whole lot more. My body is more fit, I have more energy, and I wake up excited to work out -- most days! Erin is a phenomenal trainer, motivator, workout buddy, food enthusiast, and confidante.
Working with Erin from Fit Mama Training has been one of the best things I've done for myself. Erin offers real-life solutions to real-life problems, and has helped me make important lifestyle changes that are manageable. Without my realizing, I'm working out more, enjoying getting moving, and eating healthier than I ever have before. And for the first time, I'm starting to see lasting results in not only my body shape, weight, and strength, but also my overall perspective and confidence. I'm down thirteen pounds and five and a half inches, and I know this is just the beginning. Fit Mama Training has been a wonderful investment for my health and the well-being of my family, and could be for you as well!
"Whenever I have a problem, I call Erin Brown. I've been in therapy for seven years, do a lot of mindset and perspective work with my clients, and have a strong mindset practice of my own. However, just speaking with Erin for a few minutes grounds me and gives me the clarity I need to see situations for what they are (not what I've sometimes made them out to be in my head) and helps me make decision that are best for me, my relationships, and my business. Erin knows exactly what questions to ask me to help guide me to answers that were within me all along. She holds my feet to the fire in the most loving way possible, and she knows exactly how to do so in a way leaves me wide open to see where I need to take responsibility in my life. Erin also helps me learn how to take care of myself, so I can take better care of others. I treasure the time that I get to spend talking with Erin."
When I ran into Erin after her transformation I was amazed and inspired. Seeing her validated my own goals, struggles and self-worth. Her willingness to offer advice, anecdotes and acceptance has put me back on track more than she can possibly know.
Erin Brown has come to Van Go, Inc. on multiple occasions to speak to the youth (ages 14-21) in our job training program as part of our "Go Healthy" component, and I keep asking her to come back. She's able to describe her personal journey growing up struggling with issues related to body image in a way that's witty, enlightening, humorous, and inspirational. Her positive message is critical for youth who are searching for an emotionally healthier outlook to combat those provided across so many forms of media today. And, she was able to motivate us all to join her in a fifteen minute workout!

Not For Long Term Use
Purchased this faucet for my sink in 2012, had to throw it out in 2014. Barely lasted a year and a half. Yes, we were careful with it. Visually pleasing, but made from very cheap materials. Also, can't adjust water pressure and flow. If you want style go for it, it is visually striking, especially when the LED light goes on. Realize you'll probably be replacing it after about a year or two. If you want something with a little more substantial, spend more and get something studier. P.S. I suspect most of the five star reviews are from customers who recently purchased this faucet. Wonder if they'll be singing its praises 12-24 months from their date of purchase...Read More
Looks Great, very impressive but.....
looks great, very impressive with the led lights but... red light died within a month of installation and the on off lever broke as well so we couldn't use it. wouldn't recommend. very poorly made. KRead More
Topic of Conversation
I put this faucet in my counter bar after reading the reviews that it only sprays. It is the center of attention. We like to turn on the accent lights only in the room when people are over & the glow of this faucet, blows them AWAY!! The quality of the faucet is nice & sturdy too. Its better than the one we bought for our main sink. The black part of the neck of the faucet kind of makes it look like the faucet is floating-u can kind of look at the pic to see what I mean. Overstock had this delivered in 2 dys with a standard delivery! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the LED look. I see LED faucet adapters for cheaper, but I can't imagine them being as nice.Read More
I LOVE this Faucet!
I do love this faucet...The colorful lights are so cool! I the only thing I wish it had was a choice of water flows. It only has a spray of water so it does splash wright a bit, but my sink is so deep it really doesn't matter to me. Do think that they should include that it only has a spray water flow on the description though.Read More
Looks Good but water now tastes funny
This has a powerful spray that tends to send water flying everywhere. There is no stream so it is difficult to fill things like a tea kettle. The spray must be on high in order for the lights to activate. It is cool looking but now the water tasets funny.You can move the arm to srpay the entire sink.Read More
Not a quality item.
Looks great and fits into any contemporary or modern style kitchen but not very functional, sprays water around since you cannot adjust flow, and quality of the materials it's made with are very poor. Started leaking after less than 1 yr. worth of normal usage and when tried to get replacement parts - it's almost impossible.Read More
The faucet looks and works good!
So far we have been very happy with this faucet. It adds a modern look to our kitchen, and the sprayer works well. Maybe a bit too well as it tends to spray a fine mist out of the sink when you use it, but I think most sprayer type faucets would do the same to a certain extent. The LEDs work perfectly and add a fun touch. My only complaint is that the first section of tubing (that connects to the sink) is not centered with the other square tubing. It is just weird visually, and I have no idea why it is put together this way. Overall we love the look and functionality of this faucet.Read More

Hello annak111009, thank you for your inquiry; you will be contacted by Customer Care.
Can I get a manual and be able to order a part that has broken since I have owned the faucet?
Thank you for contacting us, you will be contacted by Customer Care. Have a great day.
I received this faucet and the plumber could not install in the stone countertop (standard 3cm depth stone) due to the stem on the faucet was not long enough. None of the extra hardware pieces allowed for it extending. The plumber also went to a plumbing supply store and there is not an extension for this (thick deck adapter). Also called a number given to me by Overstock (warranty #), and the person answering said he could not help...I needed to talk with Sumerain. I tried to reach someone at Sumerain by e-mail and have not heard back. I really like the faucet but need to have an answer or will need to return.

Delta Air Lines has (inadvertently, we presume) pushed an update to its Fly Delta app that actually is a developer version and won't let you log in. Here's how to fix that.
If you've happened to update to the latest version of the Fly Delta Android app today and suddenly find that you can't log in, you're not alone. Delta apparently has uploaded a signed developer version — changing the name of the app to Fly Delta QA (or, ironically, quality assurance) — instead of a proper one for those of us in the cheap seats. And while the update indeed does make it easier to get to a boarding pass on your Android Wear watch, it also opens up some internal server options. We've confirmed the developer build, as first brought to our attention by Jason Rabinowitz on Twitter.
Not being able to log into the app is a headache, but it shouldn't keep you from boarding a flight until it's fixed.

If you haven't yet tried any of Laura Mercier's bath and body collections, go to your closest Laura Mercier counter immediately! You will not be disappointed and every penny spent will be worth it. For a couple of weeks, I have been using the new Verbena Infusion Gel Body Moisture. I admit it – at first, I was skeptical of the "gel" in the name, and I couldn't stop thinking about that sticky feeling you feel from using aloe – but I couldn't have been more wrong about that. It's part gel and part cream, so it actually feels much lighter than a cream – which is perfect for the heat of the summer. It glides on with ease and quickly absorbs into your skin. The result is extremely soft skin for hours – seriously, I love a great moisturizer that doesn't require constant reapplication. (more…)

Because Shaving is the Pits: DERMAdoctor Gorilla Warfare Antiperspirant Giveaway!
My hair grows like a weed. Unfortunately, the hair of which I speak is not on my head. My legs and underarms give my razor a workout. If I shave in the morning, by afternoon, I've got stubble. And forget about skipping days…unless I want to look like Sasquatch. Getting rid of the hair is not only expensive (I go through a lot of razors) – it's also tedious and annoying. There are many days that I make certain clothing choices so I don't have to go through the trouble of shaving.
So when I heard that one of my favorite skincare brands, DERMAdoctor, has a hair-minimizing antiperspirant, I emailed them with a quickness to ask for a sample I could review for Spoiled Pretty.
Here's how DERMAdoctor describes Gorilla Warfare:
No need to go ape over jungle-like hair growth and rain forest-level wetness. Stop monkeying around with the ordinary and make peace with two decidedly indelicate concerns with a solution uniquely camouflaged as a daily antiperspirant. It contains fourteen highly evolved botanicals that help turn underarm hair into an endangered species. (more…)

Bath & Body Works Cooling Gel Lotion Needs A New Name
A few weeks ago, I paid a visit to my local Bath & Body Works store. I was on the hunt for a tropical-smelling body wash that wouldn't break the bank, and B&BW seemed like a good place to search. When I entered the store, I was greeted my a really nice saleswoman who asked me what I was looking for. I told her I was looking for something coconutty and she recommended their new Cool Coconut Surf Shower Gel. Typically, a bottle would set you back $12.50, but since it's new, it was only $6. It smelled good and I almost bought it…that is, until I found a bottle of Coconut Water Chill Shower Gel in the clearance bin marked down to $2.75. I liked the scent a little better and the price couldn't be beat. (more…)
Turn Your Shower Into a Spa with Essio
What if I told you that you could turn your shower into a spa-like experience in less than 3 minutes? Well, you can with the ingenious Aromatherapy Shower Kit from Essio. The kit includes a shower head attachment device and three pods of essential oils. Here's how it works…
You clip the attachment device on the shower head. It's adjustable and works with lots of different kinds of shower heads. Next, you insert one of the essential oil pods into the end of the attachment device. Finally, you remove the pod's cap and point the nozzle into the running shower water to start the flow of oil – which will start to fill your shower with fragrance. (more…)

text: Use of Legal Plans for Financial Matters Doubled in Tough Economy Assistance through a group legal plan may encourage employees to take action before matters escalate By SHRM Online staff 4/9/2012 Permissions From 2007 to 2011, the number of legal services requested by plan participants for debt and financial matters more than doubled, and requests for bankruptcy counsel increased nearly threefold, according to a white paper by benefits provider Hyatt Legal Plans, a MetLife company. The white paper, From the Actions and Words of Employees: How Group Legal Plans are Positively Impacting Physical and Financial Health draws on research and employee commentary to illustrate the impact of personal legal issues on employees and the workplace. "Since employees' preoccupation with personal legal issues may also impact workplace productivity, offering access to affordable legal assistance through a voluntary group legal plan can be a valued addition to an employer's overall financial wellness program," said Bill Brooks, CEO of Hyatt Legal Plans. "The research found that 61 percent of employees who accessed services in their group legal plan spent less time at work worrying about, and dealing with, their legal situation. They also took less time off from work to deal with their issue in contrast to employees who dealt with their situation on their own." According to the survey, conducted in 2011 among working Americans employed full time: • Employees who did not hire an attorney to help with their legal situation were nearly three times as likely to spend five to 10 hours at work dealing with their legal issue than those who hired an attorney through work. • 50 percent of those who did not hire an attorney took time off work to deal with their legal issue, compared to only 30 percent of those who hired an attorney through work. Expense Prevents Seeking Counsel Not surprisingly, a big reason for not seeking legal services is concern about expense. The national survey found that 42 percent of those who did not hire an attorney said it was because attorneys are too expensive. Those who did not hire an attorney most often referred to the Internet, friends or family to help them address their legal matter. "A legal plan would have put them directly in touch with a local, qualified attorney to personally assist them with their issue at an affordable monthly rate through payroll deduction. Having an attorney through a group legal plan would detract from guesswork and uncertainty associated with attempting to handle a legal situation without professional assistance," said Brooks. Many group legal plans include fully covered attorney services for a wide range of personal legal matters for around $20 per month through payroll deduction. "Having affordable resources such as attorney assistance and representation through a group legal plan may encourage employees to take action sooner and address matters before they escalate," Brooks noted. "As a voluntary benefit, it is affordable to many employees and a cost-effective way for employers to be able to expand their benefits portfolio to improve employee satisfaction."

With July eight days away, it's time for baseball's trade season to heat up and assuming that the Pirates can keep playing well, they're likely going to be in the middle of things again this year. It looks for now like the first big trade piece of the season to fall will be Kevin Youkilis, though the Pirates apparently haven't shown much interest in Youk despite having scouts at Red Sox games recently. I'm fine with that, really. I'm guessing that Huntington will either be focusing on prying a younger player that will be a Pirate for a while from someone, or on a Derrek Lee type rental player as the deadline approaches. Youkilis doesn't really fit either mold, since he figures to be a little more expensive than a typical rental. Youkilis is 33, battling injuries, declining, and has a $13 million option for 2012. I'd probably be focusing elsewhere if I were Neal Huntington, too. That said, a Youkilis trade would indicate that the wheels are turning, and that means that the Pirates wi...

The third installment of Steven Spielberg's classic Indiana Jones series, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, was released May 24, 1989.

Brad Pitt is 50 today. Let that sink in.
While he's not aging backwards, the two-time PEOPLE Sexiest Man Alive has certainly managed to hit the half-century mark as gracefully as a person can. Stare at this picture of Pitt on the cover of AARP magazine, and then compare him to some of our favorite major stars in the year they turned 50.
Roger Moore: Skyfall with Daniel Craig Is 'The Best, Best Bond of All'
Originally posted 11/10/2012 02:00PM
Neither shaken, nor stirred. Just perennially cool.
While he'll no doubt be best remembered for the seven James Bond films he made from 1973 to 1985, Sir Roger Moore – he was knighted in 2003, for his humanitarian work on behalf of UNICEF – also wears many other labels proudly.
He was a young MGM star (opposite the then-equally young Elizabeth Taylor), a TV star and producer (The Saint), an author twice over (a 2008 autobiography, My Word Is My Bond, and the brand-new Bond on Bond: Reflections on 50 Years of James Bond Movies), and a word-class raconteur.
It was in those last two capacities that the London-born Sir Roger, a hale and hearty 85, spent time with PEOPLE in New York this week. Among the many opinions he shared were those on a certain movie franchise.
FIRST LOOK: Daniel Craig in Latest James Bond Movie Trailer
Originally posted 05/21/2012 07:20AM
James Bond is back, hunky, handsome and shirtless as ever, and once again played by Daniel Craig, in his third outing as Agent 007.
Unveiled on Monday: the trailer for Bond's 23rd screen adventure, Skyfall, due in U.S. theaters Nov. 9, and costarring Javier Bardem and French actress Bérénice Marlohe as the new Bond Girl, named Severine.
In the brief film clip, Bond/Craig is shown against a variety of international locations, while a location posting states that the production is currently in Turkey. Scenes were recently shot in the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul, where nearly half a century ago Sean Connery's Bond first encountered Turkish ally Kerim Bey (Pedro Armendériz) and blonde Bond Girl Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi), for the classic From Russia, with Love.

In 2004, David Brock founded Media Matters for America. David also is the author of five political books, including The Fox Effect (coauthored with Ari Rabin-Havt, Random House, February 2012) and The Republican Noise Machine: Right-Wing Media and How It Corrupts Democracy (Crown, May 2004). In Blinded by the Right: The Conscience of an Ex-Conservative (Crown, March 2002), a 2002 New York Times best-selling political memoir, he chronicled his years as a conservative media insider.
Conservative media are attacking a Seattle program that has offered teens access to long-term contraceptive options through their schools since 2010. But long-term birth control methods such as those offered at the schools are recommended by experts as "first-line" options for teens, and efforts to provide access to such methods to teens and low-income women in Colorado have been wildly successful in reducing teen pregnancy in the state.
Conservative media jumped on reports that an undocumented immigrant from Mexico allegedly shot and killed a San Francisco woman in order to defend presidential candidate Donald Trump's incendiary remarks that Mexican immigrants are criminals and "rapists."
Fossil fuel advocates are criticizing Pope Francis' recent climate encyclical, claiming his call to phase out fossil fuels will harm the poor by preventing access to electricity and keeping them in "energy poverty." But fossil fuels are not economically viable in most of the communities that suffer from a lack of electricity, and on-the-ground experts have explained that distributed renewable energy sources are often a more effective way to lift the world's impoverished -- who will be most affected by the adverse impacts of climate change -- out of energy poverty.
The Wall Street Journal published an op-ed by Newt Gingrich attacking the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and promoting the U.S. Consumer Coalition without disclosing that the anti-CFPB group employs him as a paid adviser. The omission is even more egregious since the Journal itself reported Gingrich's hiring last year.

I have been a PTA treasurer at two different schools for the past 4 years. PTAvenue is WONDERFUL! Not only does it handle ALL of our financial and membership needs, but the support and technical assistance is amazing. Seriously, I was blown away by the ability to chat with someone immediately on-line -- and if they were unable to fix my problem or handle my question, someone else called me back the same day and completely resolved my issue.
It is a GREAT product supported by top-notch staff. I would HIGHLY recommend it.
