When your spouse returns from a deployment with a combat stress injury or post-traumatic stress disorder, you might find yourself preoccupied with taking care of him or her. But even as you try to care for your spouse, you need to remember to take of yourself as well. If you feel yourself emotionally and physically exhausted by the role of caregiver, know that there are steps you can take to find relief.
Combat stress is a common reaction to the stressful, dangerous, and disturbing experiences of war. It's often the natural outcome of exposure to one or more traumatic or life-threatening events, or of being in a high-stress environment for a prolonged period of time. Everyone is changed in some way by combat experiences. For some, the symptoms of combat stress are actually symptoms of an injury, and these can become a longer-term mental health concern.
Symptoms of combat stress sometimes begin immediately after a traumatic experience, but in many cases, weeks or months pass before they become apparent. Common symptoms most likely to affect family life and relationships include:
When symptoms of combat stress continue for weeks or months without improving, or get worse, it may mean the person has developed PTSD, a medically recognized anxiety condition that can occur after exposure to trauma. It is not clear why some people develop PTSD and others don't, but it is clear that having PTSD is not a sign of personal weakness. Anyone exposed to a severe traumatic experience is at risk.
The most important thing to remember about combat stress and PTSD is that your service member should get professional help if symptoms continue for more than a few weeks, worsen or interfere with normal daily life. There are effective treatments available and getting help early can prevent symptoms from worsening or becoming a long-term problem.
When a combat veteran has combat stress symptoms that continue over time without improving, family members often take on the role of caretaker. If you're in this situation, you may:
Caregiver burden describes the physical and emotional strain of caring for someone with a chronic illness or dysfunction, which PTSD and combat stress sometimes become. Symptoms of caregiver burden include anxiety, stress, depression, social isolation and health problems.
If you're living with a combat veteran who shows signs of combat stress or has been diagnosed with PTSD, there are many things you can do to reduce caregiver burden and protect your marriage and family. These suggestions from PTSD experts have helped many family members manage the changes in their lives:
Familiarize yourself with combat stress and PTSD. You can start with online resources through the Veteran Administration's VA's National Center for PTSD.
Encourage your loved one to get help. Care for combat stress and PTSD is available through the Military Health System or the VA's National Center for PTSD. If you're not sure where to turn for help, talk to a Military OneSource consultant at 800-342-9647.
Acknowledge that your service member has been injured. Understand that combat stress and PTSD are not weaknesses. Knowing this helps erase the stigma that prevents many combat veterans from getting mental health treatment.
Have reasonable expectations of yourself. Family members often believe they must take care of their loved one's every need and make everything perfect at home. It is okay to let some things go.
Caring for a loved one with a combat stress injury can be emotionally and physically taxing, and though you may solely be concerned with helping your loved one cope, you are still important. Allow yourself time to accept the changes in your life and relationship, and while you support your loved one, take care of yourself as well.
Resist guilt. Caring for someone with a combat stress injury is a large responsibility; don't feel guilty if you don't have all the answers or need to seek help.
Seek your own support system. When your loved one has a combat stress injury, you become their support, but you need a support system, too. A social support system of friends and relatives, or a more structured support system of organized support groups or medical professionals can make a huge difference in your resilience and general well-being. Open up to people you trust who will listen without judgment.
Make time for you. If even a few minutes each day, find a relaxing place and give yourself time to regroup and recharge. Regular exercise is one example of a positive and healthy way to cope with stress you may be carrying around as a result of your loved one's combat stress injury.
Celebrate happy memories and create new ones. A loved one with a combat stress injury may not seem like the family member you remember, so keep some of your favorite memories in mind. Whenever possible, make time for family traditions and activities so your family can create new memorable moments.
If you have children who are exposed to your loved one's combat stress symptoms, they're likely to be as frightened, confused and stressed as you are.
Try to explain the reasons for the combat stress symptoms in a way that's appropriate for the child's age and without going into disturbing details. Create opportunities for children to express their feelings, and enjoy occasional outings with your kids so you can focus on one another.
If you continue to find yourself struggling and feeling overwhelmed, individual counseling or a support group for family members may give you a place to share your feelings and give you the coping skills you need.
You can access non-medical counseling services by contacting Military OneSource at 800-342-9647 or by contacting a Military and Family Life Counselor through your installation family support center. Non-medical counseling is intended to prevent the development or exacerbation of lifestyle conditions that may compromise military and family readiness. Non-medical counseling is designed to address issues such as improving relationships at home and work, stress management, adjustment issues (e.g., returning from a deployment), marital problems, parenting and grief and loss issues.
The counselors available through Military OneSource and the MFLC program can also provide referrals for medical counseling services in your local community.

How to exercise while you work
Finding time to exercise can be a challenge for anyone with a busy schedule. Why not work out while you're at work?
Here are five ways to make office exercise part of your routine:
1. Walk or bike to work, get off the bus a few blocks early or park farther from the door.
2. Look for opportunities to stand. Try a standing desk, or improvise with a high table or counter.
3. Trade your office chair for a fitness ball.
4. Organize a lunchtime walking group.
5. Conduct walking meetings.

- From p+p to Pb+Pb collisions : wounded nucleon versus statistical models (2013)
- System size dependence of hadron production properties is discussed within the Wounded Nucleon Model and the Statistical Model in the grand canonical, canonical and micro-canonical formulations. Similarities and differences between predictions of the models related to the treatment of conservation laws are exposed. A need for models which would combine a hydrodynamicallike expansion with conservation laws obeyed in individual collisions is stressed.
- Development of fragmented low-Z ion beams for the NA61 fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS (2011)
- The NA61 experiment, aims to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement at low SPS energies and to find signatures of the critical point of strongly interacting matter. A broad range in T-μB phase diagram will be covered by performing an energy (13A-158A GeV/c) and system size (p+p, Be+Be, Ar+Ca, Xe+La) scan. In a first phase, fragmented ion beams of 7Be or 11C produced as secondaries with the same momentum per nucleon when the incident primary Pb-ion beam hits a thin Be target will be used. The H2 beam line that transports the beam to the experiment acts as a double spectrometer which combined with a new thin target (degrader) where fragments loose energy proportional to the square of their charge allows the separation of the wanted A/Z fragments. Thin scintillators and TOF measurement for the low energy points are used as particle identification devices. In this paper results from the first test of the fragmented ion beam done in 2010 will be presented showing that a pure Be beam can be obtained satisfying the needs of the experiment.
- A new SPS programme (2006)
- A new experiemntal program to study hadron production in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at the CERN SPS has been recently proposed by the NA49-future collaboration. The physics goals of the program are: (i) search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter and a study of the properties of the onset of deconfinemnt in nucleus-nucleus collisions, (ii) measurements of correlations, fluctuations and hadron spectra at high transverse momentum in proton-nucleus collisions needed as for better understanding of nucleus-nucleus results, (iii) measurements of hadron production in hadron-nucleus interactions needed for neutrino (T2K) and cosmic-ray (Pierre Auger Observatory and KASCADE) expriments. The physics of the nucleus-nucleus program is reviewed in this presentation.
- Transparency, mixing and reflection of initial flows in relativistic nuclear collisions (2006)
- We propose to use the hadron number fluctuations in the limited momentum regions to study the evolution of initial flows in high energy nuclear collisions. In this method by a proper preparation of a collision sample the projectile and target initial flows are marked in fluctuations in the number of colliding nucleons. We discuss three limiting cases of the evolution of flows, transparency, mixing and reflection, and present for them quantitative predictions obtained within several models. Finally, we apply the method to the NA49 results on fluctuations of the negatively charged hadron multiplicity in Pb+Pb interactions at 158A GeV and conclude that the data favor a hydrodynamical model with a significant degree of mixing of the initial flows at the early stage of collisions.
- Energy and system size dependence of chemical freeze-out in relativistic nuclear collisions (2005)
- We present a detailed study of chemical freeze-out in p-p, C-C, Si-Si and Pb-Pb collisions at beam momenta of 158A GeV as well as Pb-Pb collisions at beam momenta of 20A, 30A, 40A and 80A GeV. By analyzing hadronic multiplicities within the statistical hadronization model, we have studied the parameters of the source as a function of the number of the participating nucleons and the beam energy. We observe a nice smooth behaviour of temperature, baryon chemical potential and strangeness under-saturation parameter as a function of energy and nucleus size. Interpolating formulas are provided which allow to predict the chemical freeze-out parameters in central collisions at centre-of-mass energies > 4.5 GeV and for any colliding ions. Specific discrepancies between data and model emerge in particle ratios in Pb-Pb collisions at SPS between 20A and 40A GeV of beam energy which cannot be accounted for in the considered model schemes.
- Critical line of the deconfinement phase transition (2005)
- Phase diagram of strongly interacting matter is discussed within the exactly solvable statistical model of the quark-gluon bags. The model predicts two phases of matter: the hadron gas at a low temperature T and baryonic chemical potential muB, and the quark-gluon gas at a high T and/or muB. The nature of the phase transition depends on a form of the bag mass-volume spectrum (its pre-exponential factor), which is expected to change with the muB/T ratio. It is therefore likely that the line of the 1st} order transition at a high muB/T ratio is followed by the line of the 2nd order phase transition at an intermediate muB/T, and then by the lines of "higher order transitions" at a low muB/T.
- Fluctuations and NA49 (2005)
- A brief history of the study of fluctuations in high energy nuclear collisions at the CERN SPS performed by NA49 is presented. The ideas and the corresponding experimental data on fluctuations are discussed from the point of view of their sensitivity to the onset of deconfinement.
- Evidence for an exotic S=-2, Q=-2 baryon resonance in proton-proton collisions at the CERN SPS (2004)
- Results of resonance searches in the Xi - pi -, Xi - pi +, Xi -bar+ pi -, and Xi -bar+ pi + invariant mass spectra in proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=17.2 GeV are presented. Evidence is shown for the existence of a narrow Xi - pi - baryon resonance with mass of 1.862±0.002 GeV/c2 and width below the detector resolution of about 0.018 GeV/c2. The significance is estimated to be above 4.2 sigma . This state is a candidate for the hypothetical exotic Xi --3/2 baryon with S=-2, I=3 / 2, and a quark content of (dsdsu-bar). At the same mass, a peak is observed in the Xi - pi + spectrum which is a candidate for the Xi 03/2 member of this isospin quartet with a quark content of (dsusd-bar). The corresponding antibaryon spectra also show enhancements at the same invariant mass.
- Observation of deconfinement phase transition in nucleus-nucleus collisions (2004)
- The main results obtained within the energy scan program at the CERN SPS are presented. The anomalies in energy dependence of hadron production indicate that the onset of deconfinement phase transition is located at about 30 A GeV. For the first time we seem to have clear evidence for the existence of a deconfined state of matter in nature. PACS numbers: 24.85.+p

- Activation of Rac-1 and RhoA contributes to podocyte injury in chronic kidney disease (2013)
- Rho-family GTPases like RhoA and Rac-1 are potent regulators of cellular signaling that control gene expression, migration and inflammation. Activation of Rho-GTPases has been linked to podocyte dysfunction, a feature of chronic kidney diseases (CKD). We investigated the effect of Rac-1 and Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibition on progressive renal failure in mice and studied the underlying mechanisms in podocytes. SV129 mice were subjected to 5/6-nephrectomy which resulted in arterial hypertension and albuminuria. Subgroups of animals were treated with the Rac-1 inhibitor EHT1846, the ROCK inhibitor SAR407899 and the ACE inhibitor Ramipril. Only Ramipril reduced hypertension. In contrast, all inhibitors markedly attenuated albumin excretion as well as glomerular and tubulo-interstitial damage. The combination of SAR407899 and Ramipril was more effective in preventing albuminuria than Ramipril alone. To study the involved mechanisms, podocytes were cultured from SV129 mice and exposed to static stretch in the Flexcell device. This activated RhoA and Rac-1 and led via TGFβ to apoptosis and a switch of the cells into a more mesenchymal phenotype, as evident from loss of WT-1 and nephrin and induction of α-SMA and fibronectin expression. Rac-1 and ROCK inhibition as well as blockade of TGFβ dramatically attenuated all these responses. This suggests that Rac-1 and RhoA are mediators of podocyte dysfunction in CKD. Inhibition of Rho-GTPases may be a novel approach for the treatment of CKD.
- Activation of TRPC6 channels is essential for lung ischaemia–reperfusion induced oedema in mice (2012)
- Lung ischaemia–reperfusion-induced oedema (LIRE) is a life-threatening condition that causes pulmonary oedema induced by endothelial dysfunction. Here we show that lungs from mice lacking nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (Nox2y/−) or the classical transient receptor potential channel 6 (TRPC6−/−) are protected from LIR-induced oedema (LIRE). Generation of chimeric mice by bone marrow cell transplantation and endothelial-specific Nox2 deletion showed that endothelial Nox2, but not leukocytic Nox2 or TRPC6, are responsible for LIRE. Lung endothelial cells from Nox2- or TRPC6-deficient mice showed attenuated ischaemia-induced Ca2+ influx, cellular shape changes and impaired barrier function. Production of reactive oxygen species was completely abolished in Nox2y/− cells. A novel mechanistic model comprising endothelial Nox2-derived production of superoxide, activation of phospholipase C-γ, inhibition of diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase, DAG-mediated activation of TRPC6 and ensuing LIRE is supported by pharmacological and molecular evidence. This mechanism highlights novel pharmacological targets for the treatment of LIRE.
- Inhalation of the BK(Ca)-opener NS1619 attenuates right ventricular pressure and improves oxygenation in the rat monocrotaline model of pulmonary hypertension (2013)
- Background: Right heart failure is a fatal consequence of chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH). The development of PH is characterized by increased proliferation of vascular cells, in particular pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and pulmonary artery endothelial cells. In the course of PH, an escalated right ventricular (RV) afterload occurs, which leads to increased perioperative morbidity and mortality. BKCa channels are ubiquitously expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells and their opening induces cell membrane hyperpolarization followed by vasodilation. Moreover, BK activation induces anti-proliferative effects in a multitude of cell types. On this basis, we hypothesized that treatment with the nebulized BK channel opener NS1619 might be a therapy option for pulmonary hypertension and tested this in rats. Methods: (1) Rats received monocrotaline injection for PH induction. Twenty-four days later, rats were anesthetized and NS1619 or the solvent was administered by inhalation. Systemic hemodynamic parameters, RV hemodynamic parameters, and blood gas analyses were measured before as well as 30 and 120 minutes after inhalation. (2) Rat PASMCs were stimulated with PDGF-BB in the presence and absence of NS1619. AKT, ERK1 and ERK2 activation were investigated by western blot analyses, and relative cell number was determined 48 hours after stimulation. Results: Inhalation of a 12 µM and 100 µM NS1619 solution significantly reduced RV pressure without affecting systemic arterial pressure. Blood gas analyses demonstrated significantly reduced carbon dioxide and improved oxygenation in NS1619-treated animals pointing towards a considerable pulmonary shunt-reducing effect. In PASMC's, NS1619 (100 µM) significantly attenuated PASMC proliferation by a pathway independent of AKT and ERK1/2 activation. Conclusion: NS1619 inhalation reduces RV pressure and improves oxygen supply and its application inhibits PASMC proliferation in vitro. Hence, BK opening might be a novel option for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
- Inhibition of the soluble epoxide hydrolase promotes albuminuria in mice with progressive renal disease (2010)
- Epoxyeicotrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450-dependent anti-hypertensive and anti-inflammatory derivatives of arachidonic acid, which are highly abundant in the kidney and considered reno-protective. EETs are degraded by the enzyme soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and sEH inhibitors are considered treatment for chronic renal failure (CRF). We determined whether sEH inhibition attenuates the progression of CRF in the 5/6-nephrectomy model (5/6-Nx) in mice. 5/6-Nx mice were treated with a placebo, an ACE-inhibitor (Ramipril, 40 mg/kg), the sEH-inhibitor cAUCB or the CYP-inhibitor fenbendazole for 8 weeks. 5/6-Nx induced hypertension, albuminuria, glomerulosclerosis and tubulo-interstitial damage and these effects were attenuated by Ramipril. In contrast, cAUCB failed to lower the blood pressure and albuminuria was more severe as compared to placebo. Plasma EET-levels were doubled in 5/6 Nx-mice as compared to sham mice receiving placebo. Renal sEH expression was attenuated in 5/6-Nx mice but cAUCB in these animals still further increased the EET-level. cAUCB also increased 5-HETE and 15-HETE, which derive from peroxidation or lipoxygenases. Similar to cAUCB, CYP450 inhibition increased HETEs and promoted albuminuria. Thus, sEH-inhibition failed to elicit protective effects in the 5/6-Nx model and showed a tendency to aggravate the disease. These effects might be consequence of a shift of arachidonic acid metabolism into the lipoxygenase pathway.
- Schutz oder Schaden für die Gefäße? : Bei Sauerstoffradikalen kommt es auf das Gleichgewicht an (2012)
- Sauerstoffradikale werden für Alterung, Krebs und Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen verantwortlich gemacht. Von diesem schlechten Image profitiert der große Markt der Nahrungszusatzstoffe wie Vitamine, die Radikale im Körper einfangen. Doch in klinischen Studien können keine positiven Effekte durch die Einnahme von Vitaminpräparaten nachgewiesen werden. Warum? Weil Sauerstoffradikale nicht nur schädliche Nebenprodukte des Stoffwechsels sind, sondern auch lebensnotwendige Funktionen wie die Abwehr von Krankheitserregern übernehmen. Sie werden daher im Körper in einem eng regulierten Bereich aktiv produziert. Unsere Arbeitsgruppe am Institut für Kardiovaskuläre Physiologie untersucht Mechanismen der Radikalproduktion durch Nox-Enzyme und erforscht ihre physiologische Bedeutung im Herz-Kreislauf-System.
- Soluble epoxide hydrolase limits mechanical hyperalgesia during inflammation (2011)
- Background Cytochrome-P450 (CYP450) epoxygenases metabolise arachidonic acid (AA) into four different biologically active epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) regioisomers. Three of the EETs (i.e., 8,9-, 11,12- and 14,15-EET) are rapidly hydrolysed by the enzyme soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). Here, we investigated the role of sEH in nociceptive processing during peripheral inflammation. Results In dorsal root ganglia (DRG), we found that sEH is expressed in medium and large diameter neurofilament 200-positive neurons. Isolated DRG-neurons from sEH-/- mice showed higher EET and lower DHET levels. Upon AA stimulation, the largest changes in EET levels occurred in culture media, indicating both that cell associated EET concentrations quickly reach saturation and EET-hydrolyzing activity mostly effects extracellular EET signaling. In vivo, DRGs from sEH-deficient mice exhibited elevated 8,9-, 11,12- and 14,15-EET-levels. Interestingly, EET levels did not increase at the site of zymosan-induced inflammation. Cellular imaging experiments revealed direct calcium flux responses to 8,9-EET in a subpopulation of nociceptors. In addition, 8,9-EET sensitized AITC-induced calcium increases in DRG neurons and AITC-induced calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) release from sciatic nerve axons, indicating that 8,9-EET sensitizes TRPA1-expressing neurons, which are known to contribute to mechanical hyperalgesia. Supporting this, sEH-/- mice showed increased nociceptive responses to mechanical stimulation during zymosan-induced inflammation and 8,9-EET injection reduced mechanical thresholds in naive mice. Conclusion Our results show that the sEH can regulate mechanical hyperalgesia during inflammation by inactivating 8,9-EET, which sensitizes TRPA1-expressing nociceptors. Therefore we suggest that influencing the CYP450 pathway, which is actually highly considered to treat cardiovascular diseases, may cause pain side effects.
- Therapeutic efficacy of TBC3711 in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension (2011)
- Background: Endothelin-1 signalling plays an important role in pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. Although different endothelin-A receptor antagonists are developed, a novel therapeutic option to cure the disease is still needed. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of the selective endothelin-A receptor antagonist TBC3711 in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats. Methods: Monocrotaline-injected male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized and treated orally from day 21 to 35 either with TBC3711 (Dose: 30 mg/kg body weight/day) or placebo. Echocardiographic measurements of different hemodynamic and right-heart hypertrophy parameters were performed. After day 35, rats were sacrificed for invasive hemodynamic and right-heart hypertrophy measurements. Additionally, histologic assessment of pulmonary vascular and right-heart remodelling was performed. Results: The novel endothelin-A receptor antagonist TBC3711 significantly attenuated monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension, as evident from improved hemodynamics and right-heart hypertrophy in comparison with placebo group. In addition, muscularization and medial wall thickness of distal pulmonary vessels were ameliorated. The histologic evaluation of the right ventricle showed a significant reduction in fibrosis and cardiomyocyte size, suggesting an improvement in right-heart remodelling. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the selective endothelin-A receptor antagonist TBC3711 demonstrates therapeutic benefit in rats with established pulmonary hypertension, thus representing a useful therapeutic approach for treatment of pulmonary hypertension.

The first week of May is National Child Mental Health Week, and, this year, the Raleigh and Durham FCCP offices in North Carolina got everyone involved in celebrating the themes of the week. The official color of the week is green, which, in the 1800s, was used to label people who were considered "insane" but is now used to represent the new life, new growth and new beginnings that are the goals of mental health treatment. Throughout the week, KidsPeace staff and foster parents wore green ribbons in recognition of this idea, and, on Tuesday, May 3, all staff dressed in green to show their support. In addition, the staff, foster parents and children in the Durham-Chapel Hill program enjoyed a planting activity at the office. Those in attendance planted flowers to represent each of the children enrolled in the therapeutic foster care program and also planted seeds in cups to take home and nurture. The weather was perfect, and delicious refreshments rounded-out this fun, family activity. The Raleigh office chose to celebrate by inviting children who attended SpringFest (a training day for foster parents) to participate in a poster contest, using the National Child Mental Health Week theme of "The Diversity and Resilience of our Families. The children were taught about diversity and resilience before they began and created bright, colorful and thoughtful representations of these concepts. All children were rewarded for their participation, and winners were selected by age group. Most importantly, everyone enjoyed the togetherness and fun of the activities held in each of these offices and were reminded of all there is to celebrate in the world of Child Mental Health.For more information about foster care in North Carolina as well as Pennsylvania, New York, Maine, Maryland, Virginia, Indiana, Nevada and the District of Columbia, visit fostercare.com, kidspeace.com, or call 866-4-KIDSPEACE (866-454-3773).

All men are 'elected' by God for eternal salvation.They were 'firstborn' in heaven..sent down and are due to be born again from above. We can NOT denythat there are 'vessels' used for dis-honourable use. For whteverreason,God has given them over to it at present[serve as example of evil] And the secular authorities deal with such lawlessness as this. They suffer as an evil-doer. We are not to suffer for evil-doing, but if we suffer for doing right..then Godmay use us for an honorable purpose[vessel of mercy] It is God himself who is working this exercize of good and evil expierance for the eternal good of all. He has promised an end to such,and we await our total deliverance from evil,as even the men that have been given totally over to it,do.
My daughter got involved in the occult, spells etc..and a whole pandora's box of evil was opened through this.Bringing much suffering on all.Praise God for her deliverance, for sheactually lost her sanity for a time..and still struggles at times, as we all do against sin in our own bodies,to differing degrees. Also, my nephew's ex almost killed him through a spell to get money , my daughter had an inkling and found evidence in her freezer[hair?] don't ask me the particulars, I don't know. but a lot of prayer and a miracle was worked by God to save his life[hospital personel declared it a miracle and there was a big write up in the local paper about it,even] He started hemorrhaging from his lungs and kidneys and was given up for dead. Yes, all is in his 'capable' hands Sheila
Interesting, Martin. Makes me want to do a little research on it.

Thursday, November 21, 2013
Berkeley County School Board member Scott Marino has announced that he will be resigning from his District 9 seat by the end of the year.
He is accepting a new job in Texas and said he hopes for a smooth transition.
"(I am) focusing on moving my family and beginning my new career in Texas," said Marino.
Marino, a critic of Superintendent Rodney Thompson, said he would like to see improvements in leadership and accountability.
"The problem is that a majority of the Board did not share my views," he said. "Until there is a change of the majority of Board members, we will continue to see fiscal and management problems in the District, which ultimately hurts both the taxpayer and our children."
Marino's seat will be filled by a special election about three months after his exit.
"I hope I have accomplished my goal of protecting the taxpayers' interests and being 100 percent for children," he said.

Lea Owens and her daughter, Brittney Woody, entertained a special guest recently at Woody's home in Warrenville. Russell Reddick stopped there on Oct. 4 and spent the night during his 10,000-mile motorcycle ride to promote drowning awareness and prevention.
Reddick also is raising money for the Higgins & Langley Memorial and Education Fund, which sponsors the Drowning Support Network, an all-volunteer, online effort.
Reddick's daughter, Kira, was 6 years old when she died in a drowning accident in 2004. One of Owens' children, Harley, was 6 when he died after falling into a backyard swimming pool in North Augusta 15 years ago.
The opportunity to host Reddick "was wonderful," Owens said. "It was an honor to me. I also wanted to honor my son by allowing Russell to come here and stay with us and by helping him spread the word about water safety. My son passed away on Oct. 15, 1998."
Reddick left his home in Casper, Wyo., aboard his 2007 Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle on Sept. 7. His goal was to travel to the four corners of the continental United States.
Following the death of her son, Owens founded the Mother's [sic] for Water Safety Coalition, and she met Reddick and his wife, Angela, through her drowning prevention efforts.
Owens has tried for years to get politicians interested in what she calls "Harley's Law," which would require a backyard pool to have a fence.
Owens advises parents of children to always watch their youngsters when they are near or in the water.
"We need to stop this silent killer," she said. "You can drown in any town."

David Quiroga – NMSU Media Relations InternLas Cruces, N.M. --- There could not be a better setting for a football game as skies began to clear and sun slowly faded away providing ideal weather conditions at Aggie Memorial Stadium. The New Mexico State Aggies football team took the field for their annual spring game, but this year with a different feel.
The new era of Aggie football led by first-year head coach, Doug Martin hosted its first evening spring game in years. As the stadium lights kicked on and fans filled the stands the Aggies ran through their routine stretches, warm-ups and individual drills.
Another addition to the spring game this year was keeping score, and a point system was put in place for the offense versus the defense. The team split the field and the much anticipated spring game was on its way.
Quarterback, Travaughn Colwell took the first series for the offense. The offense was able to drive the ball mainly via run game. Germi Morrison was able to rack-up 27 rushing yards on five attempts on the first drive, but the offense stalled approaching the red-zone and turned the ball over on downs.
NM State flipped the field and Andrew Manley led the next series. A pair of nice grabs by wide receiver, Adam Shapiro put the offense in a good scoring territory. The offensive line opened up a giant hole and running back, Brandon Betancourt burst through for a 23-yard scamper to put the first offensive touchdown on the board.
Andrew McDonald took the third drive. He was able to avoid pressure multiple times and left the pocket when it collapsed to pick up short chunks of yardage with his feet. McDonald connected with wide receiver, Josh Bowen three times on the drive and a big 26-yard grab was hauled in by receiver, Joseph Matthews to get the offense to the goal line. The offense wasn't able to punch it in and kicker, Maxwell Johnson chipped in a short field goal to finish the drive.
Defensively, it took some time to get the unit going. Linebacker, Deontae Ragas made a big hit to break up a pass to get the defense fired up. Shortly after, cornerback Kedeem Thomas-Davis broke on a Colwell thrown ball for the defenses first interception and second turnover on the day. A botched snap earlier in the game resulted in the defenses first turnover.
As the game progressed the defense settled down and offense went three-and-out one series, including a sack by linebacker, Trashaun Nixon on the drive. The score was tied up at 17-a-piece thirty minutes into the game. Maxwell Johnson attempted a 41-yard field goal, but was unable to connect on a McDonald led drive.
The defensive line was able to provide some push midway through the scrimmage and tallied a couple more sacks. Defensive end, Kalei Auelua was able to get by the offensive line and sack McDonald who was backed-up, for a safety.
There were several series consecutively the offense failed to get into the end zone. Colwell was able to revamp the offense making plays with his feet and connected on a string of catches with receiver, Xzavian Brandon. A 10-yard completion put the offense on the two-yard line and running back, Yolandus Pratt walked in for an easy touchdown to conclude the drive.
Punter, Cayle Champan-Brown and the punting unit took the field throughout the game and continued to showcase his leg. He booted balls far with a lot of hang-time and even was able to get a couple downed inside the ten.
The offense sputtered for a couple series and failed to score another touchdown going into halftime. Defensively linebackers, Bryan Bonilla and Clint Barnard led the defense in tackles at the half with nine and six. Thomas-Davis was also impressive going into the half with seven tackles. The offense led at half 36-29.
After a short half-time, Manley opened the series for the offense. The offense came out fast and scored in four plays with two big runs from Morrison, including a 35-yard run to set up a Betancourt six yard score. This was the second touchdown on the day for Betancourt.
McDonald was able to put together a nice drive and more notably the first one led prominently through the air. He connected 4-for-4 on the drive with two big hauls by receiver Adam Shapiro, and together put the first score through the air with a 19-yard catch and run by Shapiro to cap off the drive.
Defense held strong with a three-and-out, but the offense was able to rebound and Colwell was able to show off his legs again. On the second play from scrimmage he left the pocket and ran down the offensive sideline for a 48-yard touchdown putting the momentum back in the offensive huddle.
A couple series later Manley was able to lead a long nine-play drive. An even distribution of running by Betancourt and completions to four different targets showed a balance attack during the drive. The series was finished off with an eleven-yard strike to receiver, Jordan Bergstrom.
Defense finished the game off on a high-note stopping the offense on three consecutive drives with strong pressure from the defensive line resulting in multiple sacks. Linebacker, Isaac Leon intercepted a pass with one minute left in the game.
Colwell was only able to get a couple plays off and one first down to set up a game-winning field goal from Maxwell Johnson. Johnson booted a 47-yarder to win the game for the offense, 68-65.
The offense used short passes and play action to get the tight ends involved in the passing attack with Andy Dean and Perris Scoggins making grabs during the game. The run game looked very good using several backs throughout. Morrison and Betancourt both looked great running the ball. Morrison finished the game with 73 yards on eight attempts and Betancourt with 85 yards on 15 attempts. The quarterback position will most likely be the talk going into fall camp with all three competing for the starting job and displaying their each individual skill-set, and also freshmen, King Davis III getting into the mix. Manley racked up the most yards with 198 going 14-for-24. Colwell was impressive with 161 yards, completing 19-of-28 through the air and 95 yards with his feet. McDonald was the quarterback of the three competing to not throw an interception. He finished strong also, going 11-for-17 with 160 yards. Joshua Bowen led all receivers with nine receptions for 126 yards. There were very few drops by the receivers during the game and the unit looked good as a whole.
Defense showed the ability to bounce back after a bad series or big plays. They relied on big hits, pressure on the quarterbacks and interceptions to get them fired up. The front seven looked strong and a fast secondary anchored the defense. Bonilla led the defense with eleven tackles on the day, including two tackles for losses. Linebacker, Josh Smith was the only other defensive player to record double-digit tackles with ten and one sack. As a unit, the defense had eight sacks on the day with three total turnovers.
Overall, the spring game was very promising in all three phases of the game. NM State heads into summer ball and into season with a very competitive 2013 schedule. Every position group showcased their talents and the team as a whole looked very polish. Also, it is notable that the team this year appears a lot stronger and bigger on the playing field. With the new era brought new changes in the weight room. Martin kept the team together after the game to show the support to the 1,200 fans in attendance. The players signed autographs and took pictures and Martin thanked everyone for coming out.
The New Mexico State Aggie football team will start there season off at powerhouse, University of Texas on August 31.

Hope I'm in the right forum for this question.
Been using a HF spotwelder with great success for a while and as usual , something crops up where the darn thing can't fit in to spot weld due to size.
Wondering of the possibility of adding a "skinny" pair of extension copper tongs to the existing Tongs, to enable reach inside narrow cavities, such as mag. Bodies etc.
Don't know if this would be safe/unsafe, effective or a useless exercise ?.
It would really open up a lot of possibilities though, should it be doable.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks all.

[ I really didn't want to write about this, but because many news sites (Slashdot, Digg) already talk about this, it can't bring too much trouble. ]
Do you remember the post about the XML that contained your Gmail contact list? Well, Haochi from Googlified discovered that by adding "out=js" at the end of that URL, you can get the same data in JavaScript format. Even more, if you add "callback=name", you get a JavaScript code that can be used in any web site. This thing has a name: JSON and it's a very practical way of importing data into a JavaScript application. The problem here is that anyone can import your Gmail contact list (if you are logged in) and send it to a server.
The JavaScript file is used by Google to make it easy to send videos to your contacts in Google Video, to invite people in Google Spreadsheets and Google Notebook. So it's not a bug in Gmail, they just exposed some data in a wrong way.
Google can fix this in many ways and will certainly fix it. Until then, it's a good idea to sign out of Gmail when you're not using it.
Update (after a day): Google fixed the security vulnerability.

Globally, one out of three women will be beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime, with rates of abuse reaching 70% in some countries.
Men and boys also experience sexual violence, increasingly documented in conflict countries and especially when gender identity conflicts with gender norms. Gender-based violence (GBV) also affects other marginalized groups, including persons with disabilities and the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender community.
USAID's global mandate in development and humanitarian assistance places the Agency in a strong position to effectively address this complex, multifaceted issue.
USAID programs support prevention and response to GBV by:
- Addressing the root causes of violence
- Improving prevention and protection services
- Responding to the health and economic needs of those affected by GBV
- Supporting legislation and its enforcement against GBV
GBV is a human rights and public health issue that limits individual and societal development with high human and economic costs. Eliminating GBV is a long-standing goal of the U.S. Government. The equal participation of women in the political, economic and social spheres is a key ingredient for democratic development.
Unless women fully enjoy their human rights, to which freedom from violence is inextricably bound, progress toward development will continue to fall short.
Women who are abused by their partners are less likely to earn a living and less able to care for their children. Children who witness violence are significantly more at risk for health problems, anxiety disorders, poor school performance and violent behavior.
USAID has supported activities around the globe to combat GBV including:
- Educating and encouraging change within communities in Ethiopia regarding the harmful traditional practices of bride abduction, bride price and early marriage;
- Creating safe school environments, in Ghana and Malawi, for girls and boys to promote gender-equitable relationships and reduce school-related GBV;
- Supporting the capacity of local communities to influence changes in attitudes and behavior in order to reduce violence against women and girls in Liberia, Pakistan, Southern Sudan, Uganda, Congolese refugees in Rwanda, and Burmese refugees in Thailand; and
- Promoting community-based efforts to protect women's legal rights in Latin America and the Caribbean.
USAID is developing multi-year, comprehensive GBV Strategy and Implementation Guidance to ensure that assistance is more effective and responsive towards GBV.
USAID regularly looks for ways to improve the availability of evaluation data on gender-based violence programs so program managers can design better GBV response initiatives. One such evaluation is the Women's Justice and Empowerment Initiative (WJEI): Lessons Learned and Implications for Gender-Based Violence Programming in Sub-Saharan Africa. The recently completed evaluation assists USAID and implementing partners to ensure we address GBV in the most effective manner.

Hi Sara & Jenn,
I have an OB appointment in September (Aug was booked) for my annual… and I was thinking about ordering the High Blood Pressure and Pregnancy Brochure's and taking them with me for my OB's office…
I know it would have been a great resource to have after being diagnosed…. My doctor explained everything to me about symptoms and risks but I just brushed them off…
I think if I would have had something in "black & white†and a place to go for information I might have been a little more compliant with my doctor's orders to stay home on strict bed rest, complete my 24 hour urine test ASAP…. Instead I took a flight to Seattle the same day….. dumb, I know… but maybe it could help someone else…
What do you think??? Good or bad idea??? [:I]

So much has been written about the Greatest Generation of Americans, and very few would argue the fact that the American citizens of the World War II era saved this great nation and have made the lifestyles we are accustom to possible.
U.S. Rep. Dan Boren recently announced that he will not be seeking re-election for a fifth term in Congress next year. Boren said he is through with politics and has no specific plans for his next career move.
"I don't have a job lined up," he said in an interview following his stunning announcement. "I am very open. I haven't had much time to think about it."
Boren expressed hope that whatever he ends up doing next he will be able to remain in Oklahoma, but he left the door open to taking a job outside the state.

Any HW that signs with the ufc is ducking the best in the world,he goes by the name
Oh boy do i ever believe urine does something for you!
It makes you a freaking CREEPY WEIRDO!!!.
Regarding the CLAIMS that drinking your own piss helps the champ, what does it hurt?
It bothers me when people say things like this. This is exactly why we sell crap loads of homeopathic "medicine" and other placebo products like Airbourne! Does it have any side effect? perhaps not, aside from the fact that a person just wasted his or her time and hard earned money, not to mention the fact that it promotes an untruth.
Machida does not improve as a result of drinking his own piss, he improves IN SPITE of drinking his own piss. Atleast his piss does not actually cost him money.
Many people say things like "I have heard it is good for your teeth, penis, sex life, etc" The key word is HEARD! Or "people SAY" etc. Sometimes there are statements like "studies show" bla bla, but consider the source, most often the studies are flawed, not double blind, and biased. The fact that that the company chooses places that are not independent or they may even be conducted by the makers themselves, with no more than 1 or 2 people. Look: Jane has a cold, Jane eats M and M's Jane gets over her cold, she feels she got over her cold faster than "normal" as a result M and M's have a 100's success rate in cold combat. TADA! Then they can make the claim "studies show this works!" It is pretend science, it is bullshit, it should be illegal.
Same goes for most if not all the claims for acupuncture, many of the claims from chiropractors, and all claims from faith healers, water dowsers, psychic healers etc. Many ailments go away on their own, if you see one of these charlatans in the meantime, when the illness goes away the charlatan gets/takes the credit!
There are double blind studies on many of these alternative ... things... and they fail every time. But we don't promote that news do we? nope.
Thank you poster for actually investigating for yourself and remaining skeptical.
It is the yin (of yin/yang) nature of urine that is the basis for its use in most cultures where the medicinal value is touted, not the surface molecules. The fact that acupuncture is only recently being deeply studied and often accepted as a means of treatment by modern medicines standards tell you that modern scientists know very little about the value and affects of yin/yang nature.
Not saying it is some cure-all, but I think there is enough evidence of from the study of meridians, chi/qi, energy channels etc. to say that scientists don't conclusively know anything as much as they think they do.
What's lost in this entire thread is the fact that drinking all those stupid supplements, protein drinks and other energy boosting drinks that those companies sell likely has the same benefits as drinking your own urine.
I've read some nutrition studies that show a 100 lb teenage girl eats enough protein to meet the protein requirements of a 200lb + training athlete.
Maybe drinking piss is just a cheaper alternative that blowing cash on the supplements?
I have yet to find a double blind NON BIASED study in which acupuncture passes for anything other placebo. You can even get on youtube and watch people who have no idea what they are doing poke people with a compass or toothpicks, then watch the "patient" report how much better they feel. I am not aware of any scientific evidence for meridians, energy channels etc, these are very vague terms, with no ability to test if they actually exist (at least at the moment) Yes some modern doctor buildings do allow acupuncture and other pseudo science like the stuff Mr Meyagi does to daniel-son where he hovers his hands over him to "heal him". All I can figure is this does not have any side effect so one could say 'eh, couldn't hurt' and it may help a person mentally I'll give it that. Just like giving a Tylenol to a teen looking for a high and watch them tell their friends "dude Im so fucked up, you gotta try this"
Acupuncture, homeopathy etc all these things that try and pass as science do not even publish their "studies" in any real scientific journals. Its always in stuff like "Scientific Alternative Healing" Or the "chiropractic report.
But then again...I don't quite believe in any of that stuff myself and I'm Asian.
Wow...so Pee Drink Marquez it is then...gross.

Can someone clear this up for me: When is this film released on the UK?
I haven't seen any release dates anywhere outside of the Swedish DVD release.
It is due to be released in the US in December.
Pretty good movie. Probably the worst of the good Stephen King adaptations, which I would rate as being The Mist, The Shawshank Redemption, Stand By Me, Secret Window, Misery, The Shining, and Dolan's Cadillac. Maybe half-credit to Pet Semetary.
Although I've never seen Dolores Claiborne.
I saw this yesterday. Thought it was really good, and definately one of the better adaptations. A few changes here and there, but that goes without saying. The woman in the bed scene is a bit gruesome (which is good). Will be buying it when it comes out on DVD.
this whas a really good movie and the end of the movie whas great
I also saw this movie last weekend. Very good.

And guess what? Heather brought me something she KNIT! You can only imagine how thrilled I was. I mean, how often does a knitter get a knit gift? Not often. My mom has made me things in the past. But not for a very long time. Melana made me a gorgeous scarf. (That I wear a lot.) Other than that, this was it. I was speechless. Well, not really. I think I said thank you a bunch, maybe even fought back a tear or two. Even stalked her on the phone on her way home to thank her again.
It's been to the middle school, coffee shop (twice), the stationery store and the car wash.
