Man charged with dangerous driving
BARRE A Northfield Falls man is accused of driving dangerously with his 2-year-old daughter in the car.
Jesse L. Hodgdon, 39, pleaded not guilty to charges of careless or negligent operation and child cruelty on a child less than 10 years old, both misdemeanors, in Washington County criminal court Thursday. If convicted, he faces a maximum of three years in prison and a $1,500 fine.
According to the police affidavit, witnesses saw Hodgdon tailgate a slow vehicle on Route 12 heading toward Berlin. When the vehicle turned onto Muzzy Road, Hodgdon allegedly got close to the car and laid on the horn, then swerved around him, missing the turning car by only a few inches.
A witness said Hodgdon then passed another slow car near the Econo Lodge and nearly had a head-on collision with another vehicle.
The witnesses called police, who located Hodgdon at the Cumberland Farms in Berlin. Police said they saw Hodgdons daughter in a car seat in the locked vehicle, which was not running although the temperature was around 36 degrees. They also said Hodgdon would not have been able to see the vehicle from inside the store.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER In response to impending spray treatments of herbicides on a portion of the railroad...

Art Pope: I have "great concerns" with the tax proposal
It did not take Art Pope, Gov. Pat McCrory's top budget executive, long to let people know how he feels about the elimination of corporate and personal income tax, and expansion of the sales tax — he's not there, yet. Pope believes that shifting the burden could amount to a regressive policy, and in fact may double-tax older people who paid income taxes all along.

Q: My kids, 4 and 3, are very loud. They yell and run inside the house. They bang toys, get into loud conflicts, and my son likes to scare his little sister by growling like a dinosaur. I know most of this stuff is normal, but I've got a new baby on the way, and I'm worried that the baby isn't going to be able to get enough rest during the day. Should I punish or just lighten up?
Somebody said that if I went outside around 9 o'clock and looked in the western sky I could see Jupiter and Venus. So I went outside and stood in the middle of the big empty yard and stared at the place where I'm usually watching the sun sink. There they were, two white lights too big to be stars and too still to be airplanes, so they must be planets. I didn't see any rings around either one of them - not that I expected to at that distance, of course - but it occurred to me at that ...
The most famous ship named "Sylvania" was a Cunard passenger liner, 608 feet long, 80 feet across and weighing in at 22,017 tons gross. Built in 1957 in the Clyde Bank Shipyards in Glasgow, Scotland, the Sylvania was one of the Cunard Line's new fleet of ships for the Canadian passenger market.
Q: Our 8-year-old son was caught stealing from the teacher's prize box at school. He has done this in the past and was punished, but it seems he hasn't gotten the picture yet. Do you have any suggestions for us?
Un partie: Stop the presses! Two weeks ago, I reviewed and commented upon Pamela Druckerman's book "Bringing Up Bebe" in which she makes the claim that French parents, on the whole, raise children who are much more well-behaved, and at earlier ages, than their American counterparts.
The month of all things green leapt onto the calendar just after the gift of an extra day in February. Celebrate the blessings of family with green treats and surprises throughout the month, like green grits and milk, green shirts and matching hair bows, cloverleaf searches and barefoot walks in the grass. Look for every shade of green imaginable, as sprinkles of leaflets begin to dot the formerly barren trees of winter. Welcome hints of springtime with original celebrations or try some of the holidays below.
It is Tuesday afternoon. I arrive home to find Mama and Daddy immersed in the project of burning off some undergrowth in the branch behind Sandhill. I am planning a party and they've decided - actually Mama has decided - that the place will look prettier without the dead vines and fallen-over trees blocking sight of the pond. Within minutes there are three or four piles of brittle branches and broken limbs stacked into pyres and throwing fat orange flames into the late afternoon air.
Parents tell me their daughter is intelligent and did well in school up until the seventh grade, at which time she stopped doing the required work and her grades, consequently, went down the proverbial tube.
James Alonzo Brannen was many things, including the first mayor of the city of Statesboro. Very well respected, he was urged to run for the Democratic nomination for the United States Congress in 1904. His opponent would be none other than long-time incumbent Col. Rufus Lester of Savannah.
Last year, a Chinese-American Tiger Mother told American parents how to raise children who will make straight A's and play Carnegie Hall before they reach puberty. This year, the French are showing us how to raise children who will obey, throw few if any tantrums, and sit quietly in restaurants, listening while adults talk about adult things. Vivé la France!
Hunger is (and almost always has been, I suppose) a world-wide problem. Even in the most prosperous cultures, people go to bed hungry every night.
During the late Nineteenth Century, railroad fever swept the nation, and Georgia was not immune to the building frenzy. However, many of the proposed new railroads never even made it off the drawing board. This is a story of Bulloch County's "Nether Trains," most of whom never even laid down the first set of rails.
There were really some disturbing statistics announced at the end of last week by the Corporation For Enterprise Development which is a national nonprofit based in Washington, D.C.
The habit developed slowly, as all habits do, and morphed over the years into something more like a ritual: On the night of the full moon, just before bed, I walk out on the deck to tilt my head, stretch my neck and gaze. Once every 28 days or so, I reach out with my eyes for a touchstone, a reminder that some things remain true.
The Macon Construction Company got charters in 1888 to build three separate railroads, one of which was to be the Macon and Atlantic Railway (M&A). The M&A, which was to run from Macon to Savannah, actually laid down twelve miles of rails heading eastward from the town of Bruton in Laurens County before the money ran out and it went into receivership in 1894.
(Note: The following is part of a series of columns looking at the establishment and growth of doctors, hospitals and the health industry in Georgia and Bulloch County.)
I suppose most folks who work for a living begin, at some point, to look forward to retirement. Some prefer not to quit for various reasons, but they are exceptions. One thing that causes many to want to stop working is having to go in whether they want to or not. As one fellow reportedly said, "I wouldn't mind the job as much if it just wasn't so every day!"
Thunderstorms, warmer weather, sleeping late and the absence of big yellow buses on the road can only mean one thing: Summertime has arrived!
The clouds that teased rain have drifted away to empty themselves elsewhere and I am left to do the watering myself. I have planted strategically so that the hose does not have to be dragged all over the yard. I can, for the most part, stand on the deck and reach every thirsty green thing.

Mountain Weather forecast - Lake District National Park
The Lake District covers an area of 2,292 square kilometres with its highest point, Scafell Pike, standing at 978 metres. This Lake District Mountain is the highest in England. From the summit of Scafell Pike the view ranges from the Mourne Mountains in Northern Ireland to Snowdonia in Wales. The Lake District also contains the deepest and longest lakes in England; Wastwater and Windermere.
Much smaller than its Scottish counterparts, but no less breath-taking, is the Lake District National Park. Whilst unarguably most famous for the lakes and waters from which it took its name, the National Park certainly has plenty to offer climbers as well. Not only that, special routes have been created (under the title: 'Miles Without Stiles') to offer more laid-back, moderate walks.
Those looking for a challenge should be suitably catered for with the Lakeland Fells, as made famous by rambler and cartographer Alfred Wainwright. These include some of the highest peaks in England: Scafell Pike (978 metres), Scafell (965 metres), Helvellyn (951 metres) and Skiddaw (931 metres).
The Lake District Mountains weather page provides a 5 day weather forecast for many places within Lake District mountains and the surrounding area, featuring 3 hourly updates on weather conditions for rainfall, temperature, wind speed and wind direction.
Weather Warnings and alerts for the Lake District region are also displayed during periods of severe weather. We warn the public and emergency responders of severe or hazardous weather which has the potential to cause danger to life or widespread disruption through our National Severe Weather Warning Service. Weather warnings are displayed for rain, snow, wind, fog and ice. For more information please view our weather warnings guide page.

How to Wind a Center Pull Ball of Yarn
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
You cannot knit or crochet from an unwound pile of yarn. To easily make a center-pull ball of yarn without a ball winder or any special equipment, follow these instructions. Your hand is all you need.
- If you have a mess of tangled yarn or want to re-wind a skein into a center-pull ball, first unwind the skein in a big loop or place the yarn over the back of a chair or a friend's spaced-out hands.
- Hold the yarn between your thumb and forefinger with the tail of the yarn draped over the top of your hand.
- Wind the yarn clockwise over your thumb and forefinger around 10 times.
- Remove your forefinger from the inside so that the yarn is sitting loosely on your thumb. Stick your thumb up in an "OK" sign.
- Begin winding around the thumb. After winding a few more times around the center of the thumb, begin changing the angle and direction in how you wind the yarn.
- Carefully slide the ball of yarn to the end of your thumb.
- Wind four or five times in one spot, move the ball slightly, and wind in another spot. Continue to move all over the ball as you wind, including the bottom of the ball near the base of your thumb. Don't wind around the center-pull tail.
- Once all the yarn is wound around your thumb, tuck the trailing end into the outside. Slide the ball off your thumb.
You're all done!

I was taught this method but had a problem with keeping the tail from getting wound into the ball. Then I was watching a knitting show on TV and someone showed how to use a pill bottle to wind the yarn - you put the end of the yarn into the bottle and snap on the cap, then wind the yarn around the bottle. When you're done, take the top off the bottle and slide it out from the center of the ball of yarn. Your end is right there and won't get lost.

I put the tail of the yarn in the palm of my hand and hold it with my thumb. I then wind the yarn around my first 3 fingers until I have a good amount. I then slip the yarn off my fingers and begin winding in different directions (a few times in one direction, then in another and then another) being careful not to cover the end I started with. Also take care not to wind too tightly in the beginning so you will be able to pull easily from the center when finished. Have done it this way successfully for many years.

"We know we all believe in the same god."I sighed as a couple of friends around the table caught my eye with a knowing look. The new people at last week's interfaith meeting were introducing themselves, and their use of this tired, inaccurate aphorism was, no doubt, their way of stating that they were in harmony with all the others present. As often as I refer to plural "gods" or say out loud that we are not all the same, I have come to accept that most people cannot hear that message. They d … [Read more...]

For many years I have been hired to conduct feasibility studies and community assessments. Without boring you with too much business jargon, I will simply say that 10% of such work is organization, appointments and report-writing, and 90% is listening. When you really, truly listen to people, in such a way that they know you are hearing them, they will tell you some remarkable things. Regardless of why a study is commissioned, each project has been a keen reminder that everything comes back down … [Read more...]
The Linguists' Principle of Charity
I'm still slowly reading my way through Karen Armstrong's Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life. Our city discussion group has held two monthly meetings, but yesterday I was reading Step Eight - How We Should Speak. There it was that I learned of something from the field of linguistics, called the principle of charity. The principle says that when someone says something to us which seems strange, we should pause, assume that they hold some piece of truth which might be useful to us, and accept tha … [Read more...]

Macedonia: On the refugee passage to the EU | Congo: bad relationship with UN troops | Berliners fight back against gentrification | Pakistan: Boom time for shamans
Every day, refugees from as far away as Sudan and Somalia turn up on the Macedonian border: It is one of the stops on the perilous journey to the EU.
In the Congo, the relationship between the government and the UN is growing increasingly tense. President Joseph Kabila is demanding the withdrawal of UN troops, but many people fear the consequences that could bring.
Gentrification is threatening to destroy Berlin's reputation as the city that is "poor but sexy." Investment in real estate is driving up rents and for one greengrocer in the Kreuzberg district, it's even putting his livelihood at risk.
In many parts of Pakistan, there is limited access to doctors or psychologists. Without recourse to medical professionals, people often turn to exorcists, whose intentions are, at best, questionable.

ABSTRACT: We investigated whether urinary markers of nucleic acid oxidation are associated with an increased risk of cancer in type 2 diabetes patients.04/2015; 4. DOI:10.1016/j.redox.2014.11.010
Article: Association Between Urinary Markers of Nucleic Acid Oxidation and Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE We recently showed that RNA oxidation, estimated by urinary excretion of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGuo), independently predicted mortality in a cohort of 1,381 treatment-naive patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. In the present investigation, we analyzed urine collected 6 years after the diagnosis to assess the association between urinary markers of nucleic acid oxidation and mortality in patients with established and treated diabetes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We used data from the 970 patients who attended the screening for diabetes complications 6 years after the diagnosis. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to examine the relationship between urinary markers of DNA oxidation (8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-oxodG] [n = 938]) and RNA oxidation (8-oxoGuo [n = 936]) and mortality.RESULTSDuring a median of 9.8 years of follow-up, 654 patients died. Urinary 8-oxoGuo assessed 6 years after the diagnosis was significantly associated with mortality. The multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios for all-cause and diabetes-related mortality of patients with 8-oxoGuo levels in the highest quartile compared with those in the lowest quartile were 1.86 (95% CI 1.34-2.58) and 1.72 (1.11-2.66), respectively. Conversely, 8-oxodG was not associated with mortality. In addition, we found an association between changes in 8-oxoGuo from diagnosis to 6-year follow-up and mortality, with increased risk in patients with an increase and decreased risk in patients with a decrease in 8-oxoGuo.CONCLUSIONS The RNA oxidation marker 8-oxoGuo is an independent predictor of mortality in patients with established and treated type 2 diabetes, and changes in 8-oxoGuo during the first 6 years after diagnosis are associated with mortality.Diabetes care 11/2012; 36(3).

Article: Increasing the general level of academic capacity in general practice: introducing mandatory research training for general practitioner trainees through a participatory research process.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To obtain good quality evidence-based clinical work there needs to be a culture of critical appraisal, and strong bridges between the clinical and the academic worlds in general practice. The aim was to educate the general practitioner (GP) trainees to obtain critical appraisal skills, and through the development and implementation of the mandatory programme to gradually empower the GP community to achieve academic capacity by creating a link between the GP researchers and the GP training community. This was done by developing a faculty, giving teaching skills to GP academics, and research skills to GP clinicians; and creating an awareness of the potential benefits of critical appraisal in training GP surgeries. Development and implementation of a faculty and a programme through a participatory action research-inspired project, with process evaluation from the beginning of the planning phase. From 2006 to 2009, we built a teaching faculty of 25 teachers among clinical GPs and GP academics; developed the training programme; and delivered the programme to 95 GP trainees. Some of the GP trainees later showed an interest in more substantial research projects, and GP trainers with no previous association with the research environment started to show an interest through their function as GP trainers. The GP academics of the faculty, however, felt that it was difficult to continue the engagement because of the still increasing demand for published knowledge production in academia. It is possible to support the development of general academic capacity in general practice using participatory design in collaboration with GP academics and clinicians, building bridges between academia and clinical work, as well as within academia between research publication and teaching. There is, however, a generic barrier in the regulation of academia itself.Quality in primary care 01/2012; 20(1):57-67.
Article: Urinary Markers of Nucleic Acid Oxidation and Long-Term Mortality of Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic Patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We analyzed data from a cohort of 1,381 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients to test the hypothesis that urinary markers of nucleic acid oxidation are independent predictors of mortality. We examined the relationship between urinary excretion of markers of DNA oxidation (8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-oxodG]) and RNA oxidation (8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine [8-oxoGuo]) and long-term mortality using Cox proportional hazards regression. After multivariate adjustment, the hazard ratios for all-cause and diabetes-related mortality of patients with 8-oxoGuo levels in the highest quartile compared with those in the lowest quartile were 1.44 (1.12-1.85) and 1.54 (1.13-2.10), respectively. Conversely, no significant associations between 8-oxodG and mortality were found in the adjusted analyses. Urinary excretion of the RNA oxidation marker 8-oxoGuo measured shortly after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes predicts long-term mortality independently of conventional risk factors. This finding suggests that 8-oxoGuo could serve as a new clinical biomarker in diabetes.Diabetes care 12/2011; 34(12):2594-6. DOI:10.2337/dc11-1620 · 8.57 Impact Factor
Article: Patients newly diagnosed with clinical type 2 diabetes during oral glucocorticoid treatment and observed for 14 years: all-cause mortality and clinical developments.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chronic exposure to glucocorticoids (GCs) has many side effects including glucose intolerance and diabetes and may accelerate the occurrence of cardiovascular disease and increase mortality. We studied the 14-year clinical development of diabetes in patients diagnosed with diabetes during GC treatment. A population-based sample of 1369 people newly diagnosed with clinical type 2 diabetes underwent a clinical examination at diagnosis, and surviving patients were followed up 6 and 14 years later. Patients receiving oral GC treatment at diagnosis were compared with the other patients. Of 1369 patients, 35 (2.6%) were treated with oral GCs at diabetes diagnosis. At that point, patients on GC therapy were older (69.9 versus 65.3 years, p = 0.007, sex-adjusted) and tended to have lower BMI (26.1 versus 29.1 kg/m(2) , p = 0.023), also 6 years after diagnosis (24.8 versus 28.4, p = 0.011), than patients not being treated with GCs. In a univariate Cox regression model, GC treatment at diagnosis increased all-cause mortality with a hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) of 2.01 (1.39-2.89, p = 0.0002, n = 1369), while this decreased to 1.41 (0.98-2.04, p = 0.065, n = 1369) when adjusted for age and sex and to 1.39 (0.92-2.11, p = 0.12, n = 1086) when risk factors, complications and cancer were added to the model. Apart from differences in age and overweight, patients in this relatively small sample of those diagnosed with clinical type 2 diabetes during GC treatment were comparable at diagnosis and during 14 years of follow-up with those not treated with GCs, including with regard to the adjusted mortality rate.Basic & Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology 10/2010; 108(4):285-8.

Article: Predictors of mortality of patients newly diagnosed with clinical type 2 diabetes: a 5-year follow up study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: At diabetes diagnosis major decisions about life-style changes and treatments are made based on characteristics measured shortly after diagnosis. The predictive value for mortality of these early characteristics is widely unknown. We examined the predictive value of patient characteristics measured shortly after diabetes diagnosis for 5-year all-cause and cardiovascular mortality with special reference to self-rated general health. Data were from a population-based sample of 1,323 persons newly diagnosed with clinical diabetes and aged 40 years or over. Possible predictors of mortality were investigated in Cox regression models. Multivariately patients who rated their health less than excellent experienced increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. These end-points also increased with sedentary life-style, relatively young age at diagnosis and presence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at diagnosis. Further predictors of all-cause mortality were male sex, low body mass index and cancer, while cardiovascular mortality increased with urinary albumin concentration. We found that patients who rated their health as less than excellent had increased 5-year mortality, similar to that of patients with prevalent CVD, even when biochemical, clinical and life-style variables were controlled for. This finding could motivate doctors to discuss perceptions of health with newly diagnosed diabetic patients and be attentive to patients with suboptimal health ratings. Our findings also confirm that life-style changes and optimizing treatment are particularly relevant for relatively young and inactive patients and those who already have CVD or (micro)albuminuria at the time of diabetes diagnosis.BMC Endocrine Disorders 08/2010; 10:14.

Article: Changes in levels of haemoglobin A1c during the first 6 years after diagnosis of clinical type 2 diabetes.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To assess the variability in levels of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)) during the first six years after diagnosis of clinical type 2 diabetes in relation to possible predictors. Data were from a population-based sample from general practice of 581 newly diagnosed diabetic patients aged 40 or over. Estimation of HbA(1c) was centralized. The changes in levels of HbA(1c) were described by HbA(1c) at diagnosis and a regression line fitted to the HbA(1c) measurements after 1-year follow-up for each patient. The predictive effect of patient characteristics for changes in HbA(1c) was investigated in a multivariate mixed model. During the first year after diabetes diagnosis, HbA(1c) dropped to near normal average level and then started rising almost linearly. A sharp rise in long-term glycaemic level was observed in approximately a quarter of the patients, especially the relatively young. Of 581 patients, 156 (26.9%) patients, however, experienced a fall in HbA(1c) after 1-year follow-up and another quarter showed constant or only slowly rising HbA(1c). The changes in levels of HbA(1c) were only predicted by diagnostic HbA(1c) and age. During the first 6 years after the diagnosis of clinical type 2 diabetes, changes in levels of HbA(1c) show considerable inter-individual variability with age as the only long-term predictor. The results indicate that it is important to monitor changes in HbA(1c) more closely and intensify treatment of those often relatively young patients who actually experience the beginning of an apparently relentless deterioration of their glycaemic control.Scandinavian journal of clinical and laboratory investigation 11/2009; 69(8):851-7.

Article: 16-year excess all-cause mortality of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients: a cohort study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Studies have shown that type 2 diabetic patients have higher all-cause mortality than people without diabetes, but it is less clear how diabetes affects mortality in elderly patients and to what degree mortality differs between diabetic men and women. The aim of the present study is to investigate the age- and sex-specific all-cause mortality pattern in patients with type 2 diabetes in comparison with the Danish background population. Population-based cohort study of 1323 patients, diagnosed with clinical type 2 diabetes in 1989-92 and followed for 16 years. Median (interquartile range) age at diagnosis was 65.3 (55.8-73.6) years. The age- and sex-specific hazard rates were estimated for the cohort using the life table method and compared with the expected hazard rates calculated with Danish register data from the general population. In comparison with the general population, diabetic patients had a 1.5-2.5 fold higher risk of dying depending on age. The over-mortality was higher for men than for women. It decreased with age in both sexes, and among patients over 80 years at diagnosis the difference between the observed and the expected survival was small. We found an excess mortality of type 2 diabetic patients compared with the background population in all age groups. The excess mortality was most pronounced in men and in young patients.BMC Public Health 10/2009; 9:400. DOI:10.1186/1471-2458-9-400 · 2.32 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: To examine 1) patients' characteristics according to the treatment goal chosen at diabetes diagnosis, and 2) the association between individualised goals for glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), blood pressure (BP) and lipids, and the risk factor level subsequently achieved. Follow-up study embedded in a multifaceted intervention study directed at doctors encouraging individualised goal-setting in newly diagnosed diabetic patients aged > or = 40 years. General practice. In all, 243 general practitioners and 674 patients participated. Risk factors for diabetic complications. Relatively young age, low diagnostic plasma glucose, low BMI, a moderate or high level of physical activity and normoalbuminuria were associated with a treatment goal of good control at diagnosis. After 5 years, median HbA1c was 8.2%, 8.6% and 8.0% in patients with a goal of good, acceptable and poor control, respectively. Patients with a goal of good control versus those with a goal of acceptable control had a lower HbA1c level in a regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, HbA1c at diagnosis, BMI, total cholesterol, fasting triglycerides, BP, physical activity, smoking status and diabetes duration. We found no association between goals and the level of BP and lipids. Doctors tend to pursue normoglycaemia in relatively young patients with low blood glucose, low BMI, high activity level and normoalbuminuria. Patients for whom a goal of normoglycaemia was chosen at diagnosis achieved favourable glycaemic control at 5-year follow-up. Whether doctors choosing the goals were good at predicting future glycaemic control, or whether goal-setting is an important motivational factor in achieving optimal glycaemic control needs to be explored.Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care 06/2004; 22(2):71-7.

Article: Encouraging structured personalised diabetes care in general practice. A 6-year follow-up study of process and patient outcomes in newly diagnosed patients.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate the quality of diabetes care achieved on the process and outcomes of care in the context of a multifaceted intervention directed at general practitioners (GPs) encouraging regular follow-up and individualised goal-setting. A 6-year follow-up study. A total of 243 Danish GPs and a population-based sample of 729 newly diagnosed, predominantly type 2 diabetic patients participated. Questionnaires and laboratory assessments were used to determine the proportion of patients reviewed regularly, and their pharmacological treatment and risk factors. During the study, the proportion of patients who had an annual clinical examination decreased from 100% to 77%. The proportion given oral anti-diabetic agents or insulin increased from 43% to 71%. Median glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) dropped in the 2nd year to 7.7% (normal range 5.4-7.4%), after which it increased gradually, but remained on average at 1.3% above the upper limit of the normal range. Median blood pressure (systolic/diastolic), total cholesterols and fasting triglycerides were maintained at 145-150/81-85 mmHg, 6.0-6.2 mmol/l and 1.66-1.96 mmol/l, respectively. Initial weight loss was partly regained over 6 years. Among centrally supported GPs, most patients were regularly reviewed and obtained acceptable levels of risk factors for at least 6 years, although glycaemic control progressively deteriorated after an initial drop to near-normal average level.Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care 07/2003; 21(2):89-95.

Article: Doctors' characteristics do not predict long-term glycaemic control in type 2 diabetic patients.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Glycaemic control in type 2 diabetic patients varies widely between general practitioners (GPs). To increase our understanding of this variation, linear random effects models were used to examine the predictive value of GP characteristics on the course of annual HbA1c measurements, in 688 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients between one and five years after diabetes diagnosis. We found that characteristics of centrally supported GPs, such as interest in diabetes, experience, practice type, list size, and weekly working hours, did not predict their patients' glycaemic control.British Journal of General Practice 02/2003; 53(486):47-9. · 2.36 Impact Factor

Why to Watch: Is this a preview
of the Big 12 Championship game?
Nebraska gets Missouri in Lincoln, while
Texas could win this game and probably
survive an upset loss along the way and
still get in. The Longhorns are thinking
bigger hoping to creep its way up from
the No. 9 spot in the initial BCS
rankings and get in range for the
national title game. Nebraska was ranked
17th in the first rankings, and it still
has dreams of playing in the BCS
somewhere with a win this week being a
huge step for the program and officially
announcing that it's back to being a
powerhouse. Outside of a strange second
half collapse in the win over Kansas and
the loss to USC, the Huskers have been
coldly efficient winning five games by
double digits with few problems on the
road the last two weeks in wins over
Iowa State and Kansas State. Texas
bounced back from its loss to Ohio State
to win its next five games by a combined
score of 236 to 65 and coming off a
63-31 shootout victory over Baylor. Both
teams are better than you think with the
winner taking a huge step in national
respect. Texas has won the five of the
last six between the two with the last
loss coming in the 1999 Big 12
Why Texas Might Win: Does
Nebraska actually have the ability to
bomb away if needed against a halfway
decent defense? Has it actually beaten
anyone with a pulse? Of the six wins,
only one came over a possible bowl team
(the Kansas/Kansas State winner will
likely get the final Big 12 bowl spot).
Oh sure, the offense has been
ultra-efficient relying on a balanced
attack, no mistakes, and a decent
defense to get through the wins without
a problem, but the coaching staff went
Red State conservative against USC and
didn't show any of the punch to make it
interesting. Texas is starting to mix it
up and is starting to put up big points
with home run hitting passing game. The
Nebraska secondary is burnable, the UT
QB Colt McCoy will bomb at will unless
Why Nebraska Might Win: ... the
Huskers get into the backfield. Texas
has been able to dominate because of its
offensive line, but the Husker front
won't be pushed around and it has enough
talent (even though it hasn't shown up
to expectations so far) to provide more
of a pass rush on McCoy than he's seen
since the Ohio State game. Just because
Nebraska hasn't exploded for a full
sixty minutes since early September,
that doesn't mean it doesn't have the
ability. If Zac Taylor and the passing
game turn things loose, like Baylor was
able to do last week against UT, there
should be a few big plays against a
suddenly suspect secondary.
Who to Watch: Limas Sweed has
literally provided some punch to the
Texas passing game. Sweed appeared to
punch Baylor CB Anthony Arline last
week, but was only flagged for a penalty
and wasn't suspended by the Big 12 of
Texas. He's been Colt McCoy's main
target all year long catching at least
one touchdown pass in every game but
one, the loss to Ohio State, with eight
scoring grabs on the year while
averaging 17.6 yards per catch.
What Will Happen: Nebraska will
come up with a few scores early to get
the crowd into the game, but Texas will
slowly, methodically work its way back
into it and pull away in the fourth
quarter thanks to the running game. Both
teams will look good, and Nebraska will
establish that it's back to being a
power, but Texas will show why it
belongs in the national title

(4-3) at
(6-1) 2 PM EST Saturday
October 21st
Why to Watch: A young Kansas
State team is still trying to figure out
exactly how good it is in only its
second road game of the year, while
Missouri is coming off the strange,
tough loss to Texas A&M as it looks to
get back on the Big 12 title track. The
Tigers were rolling along before it had
problems with turnovers in the first
half, and Jorvorskie Lane and the Aggie
power running game in the second, and
needs this win with Oklahoma and
Nebraska coming up next. This is a
legitimate top 20 team that's still
looking for national respect, but first
it needs to show it can beat a mediocre
team like KSU at home. Prince's team
needs to find a win somewhere soon or
hopes for a bowl game will go down the
drain, but just coming up with a good
showing against one of the Big 12's best
might be the goal this week.
Why Kansas State Might Win:
Kansas State is finding ways to get into
the backfield sparking a surprisingly
good season from the defense. Missouri's
offense hasn't had to deal with many
active defensive fronts so far, at least
many that the great offensive line
couldn't handle, so if Ian Campbell, who
has been one of the Big 12's best pass
rushers, can get to Chase Daniel and
throw the Mizzou timing off, KSU has a
Why Missouri Might Win: Kansas
State had better generate points from
its defense and special teams, because
it's offense won't do jack squat against
the Tiger D. Mizzou lost to Texas A&M
because it couldn't get the Aggie
offense off the field, but ball control
and keeping the chains moving isn't a
forte of the Wildcat attack. Josh
Freeman is one of the nation's least
efficient passers, while Leon Patton is
a quick, darting back, who plays into
the Tiger D's quickness, and not a
pounder who can wear down a D.
Who to Watch: With Kansas State
looking to be as disruptive as possible
on defense, Missouri will likely try to
get rid of the ball quickly to its tight
ends to keep things moving. A case could
be made that the Tigers have the two
best in America in Chase Coffman and
Martin Rucker, and neither has
disappointed so far after generating a
little bit of preseason hype. Coffman
has been the steadier receiver with 29
grabs and four touchdowns so far, while
Rucker, who went without a catch last
week, has seen his production diminish
over the last two weeks with only two
catches for 25 yards against Texas Tech
and no grabs against A&M. Expect these
two to combine for at least ten catches
with the coaching staff making a
concerted effort to get Rucker plenty of
What Will Happen: Outside of a
31-point aberration against Oklahoma
State, Kansas State hasn't put up any
points over the last month scoring six
against Louisville, three against Baylor
and three against Nebraska. Don't look
for any Wildcat fireworks against a
Tiger D looking to make up for last
week's loss.

Why to Watch: Not too long ago,
this would've been to determine who the
worst team in the Big 12 was and have no
bearing whatsoever on the Big 12 race.
KU might be 0-3 in conference play, but
it's still in the hunt for a bowl bid
with winnable games against Colorado,
Iowa State and Kansas State ahead, but
first, it has to get over a
soul-crushing three-game slide that saw
an overtime loss to Nebraska, a
last-minute loss to Texas A&M, and a
breathtaking, record-setting second half
bombing by Oklahoma State. Baylor lost
its first Big 12 game of the year in a
63-41 shootout against Texas, and it
needs to come up with a win this week
with four tough games ahead. These two
might not be challenging for the Big 12
title, but they're entertaining and
should put on a great show.
Why Kansas Might Win: Outside of
the Texas attack, Kansas has the most
effectively balanced offense Baylor has
seen all season. Unfortunately for BU,
its defense has been effectively average
against both the pass and the run
getting bombed on by Texas and run over
by Colorado. The big problem has been
pressure up front; there hasn't been
any. The KU offensive line shouldn't
have any problems.
Why Baylor Might Win: KU's pass
defense was awful before last week, and
then it went to another level of bad
giving up 300 receiving yards to Adarius
Bowman and 411 passing yards to Bobby
Reid as part of a 42-point second half.
Baylor doesn't just throw; it throws,
throws, and throws some more with one fo
the nation's most one-dimensional
attacks. In this game, that's a positive
as the nation's tenth ranked passing
attack should be able to fire at will.
If BU could bomb away on Texas for 320
yards and three touchdowns, it'll be
able to put up at least 350 on KU unless
Who to Watch: ... KU can dominate
the time of possession. Part of the
reason for the collapse against OSU was
an inability to get the chains moving in
the late to keep Reid and Bowman off the
field. Things likely would've been far
different had RB John Cornish been able
to play after getting knocked out early
in the second half after running ten
times for 55 yards. On pace to be the
Big 12's top rusher (thanks to the
injury to Adrian Peterson), Cornish has
rushed for 765 yards and 14 touchdowns
so far and should be able to rumble for
at least 125 if he can stay healthy.
What Will Happen: Do you like
Cornish and Kerry Meier running it, or
Shawn Bell and Baylor bombing it? The KU
pass defense is worse than the Baylor
run D.

I had to stand in the lobby for 10 min. before anyone showed up. The room, when we walked in the smell of pinesol hit you in the face. ( I like pinesol, but) thank goodness we only spent about 6 hours in there, which was for sleeping.....
Would recommend
Nice place for the money

Room had an odor once you walked in !!

Not a good hotel in any way!!
Daughter's wedding
The 1st room they put us in was on the backside of the motel. We went in and it was not clean at all furniture was torn up, toilet didn't flush, called front desk and they moved us to a newly updated room at poolside and it was great, clean, nice
and perfect, I will stay there again. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
twice broken hearted
I rented two rooms , 1 for my parents and 1 for myself and son. we came from florida for my uncles funeral. my dad is in a wheelchair and in bad health, i asked for 2 rooms down stairs they stuck us on the 2nd floor. the toilet ran all night. the
outlets in the walls don't work. the 2nd day when we returned from the funeral got out of the car ,the maid swept water off the floor above all over us. got to the room which had a do not disturb sign on the door the same maid had been in the room gone through our stuff and even ate some of the food and left it uncovered. one of the bedspreads in my parents room had a big burn area.
My Family Reunion Stay
The experience was ok but when breakfast was served their were no condiments for the waffles, my bathtub drain was clogged and not working, and the pool did not open up on time due to extensive maintenence.
Good place to stay
I just wanted a place for the night. This hotel was all that I needed. Nothing fancy, but not a dive either.
They were remodeling so maybe that is part of the reason the room we had wasn't clean or nice. The staff was very friendly and check in went smooth. Hopefully with the remodeling this will be a cleaner, nicer motel.
