Kidney and Urologic Diseases
On this page:
A cystocele, also called a prolapsed or dropped bladder, is the bulging or dropping of the bladder into the vagina. The bladder, located in the pelvis between the pelvic bones, is a hollow, muscular, balloon-shaped organ that expands as it fills with urine. During urination, also called voiding, the bladder empties through the urethra, located at the bottom of the bladder. The urethra is the tube that carries urine outside of the body. The vagina is the tube in a woman's body that runs beside the urethra and connects the womb, or uterus, to the outside of the body.
A cystocele occurs when the muscles and supportive tissues between a woman's bladder and vagina weaken and stretch, letting the bladder sag from its normal position and bulge into the vagina or through the vaginal opening. In a cystocele, the bladder tissue remains covered by the vaginal skin. A cystocele may result from damage to the muscles and tissues that hold the pelvic organs up inside the pelvis. A woman's pelvic organs include the vagina, cervix, uterus, bladder, urethra, and small intestine. Damage to or weakening of the pelvic muscles and supportive tissues may occur after vaginal childbirth and with conditions that repeatedly strain or increase pressure in the pelvic area, such as
Normal bladder position
A woman's chances of developing a cystocele increase with age, possibly because of weakening muscles and supportive tissues from aging. Whether menopause increases a woman's chances of developing a cystocele is unclear.
The symptoms of a cystocele may include
Women who have a cystocele may also leak some urine as a result of movements that put pressure on the bladder, called stress urinary incontinence. These movements can include coughing, sneezing, laughing, or physical activity, such as walking. Urinary retention––the inability to empty the bladder completely––may occur with more severe cystoceles if the cystocele creates a kink in the woman's urethra and blocks urine flow.
Women with mild cystoceles often do not have any symptoms.
Diagnosing a cystocele requires medical tests and a physical exam of the vagina. Medical tests take place in a health care provider's office, an outpatient center, or a hospital. The health care provider will ask about symptoms and medical history. A health care provider uses a grading system to determine the severity of a woman's cystocele. A cystocele receives one of three grades depending on how far a woman's bladder has dropped into her vagina:
If a woman has difficulty emptying her bladder, a health care provider may measure the amount of urine left in the woman's bladder after she urinates. The remaining urine is called the postvoid residual. A health care provider can measure postvoid residual with a bladder ultrasound. A bladder ultrasound uses a device, called a transducer, that bounces safe, painless sound waves off the bladder to create an image and show the amount of remaining urine. A specially trained technician performs the procedure, and a radiologist—a doctor who specializes in medical imaging—interprets the images. A woman does not need anesthesia.
A health care provider can also use a catheter—a thin, flexible tube—to measure a woman's postvoid residual. The health care provider inserts the catheter through the woman's urethra into her bladder to remove and measure the amount of remaining urine after the woman has urinated. A postvoid residual of 100 mL or more is a sign that the woman is not completely emptying her bladder. A woman receives local anesthesia.
A health care provider may use a voiding cystourethrogram—an x-ray exam of the bladder—to diagnose a cystocele as well. A woman gets a voiding cystourethrogram while urinating. The x-ray images show the shape of the woman's bladder and let the health care provider see any problems that might block normal urine flow. An x-ray technician performs a voiding cystourethrogram, and a radiologist interprets the images. A woman does not need anesthesia; however, some women may receive sedation. A health care provider may order additional tests to rule out problems in other parts of a woman's urinary tract.
Cystocele treatment depends on the severity of the cystocele and whether a woman has symptoms. If a woman's cystocele does not bother her, a health care provider may recommend only that she avoid heavy lifting or straining, which could worsen her cystocele. If a woman has symptoms that bother her and wants treatment, the health care provider may recommend pelvic muscle exercises, a vaginal pessary, or surgery.
Pelvic floor, or Kegel, exercises involve strengthening pelvic floor muscles. Strong pelvic floor muscles more effectively hold pelvic organs in place. A woman does not need special equipment for Kegel exercises.
The exercises involve tightening and relaxing the muscles that support pelvic organs. A health care provider can help a woman learn proper technique.
Read more about pelvic muscle exercises in Kegel Exercise Tips.
A vaginal pessary is a small, silicone medical device placed in the vagina that supports the vaginal wall and holds the bladder in place. Pessaries come in a number of shapes and sizes. A health care provider has many options to choose from to find the most comfortable pessary for a woman.
Pessary device
Pessary inserted in the vagina
A heath care provider may recommend surgery to repair the vaginal wall support and reposition the woman's bladder to its normal position. The most common cystocele repair is an anterior vaginal repair—or anterior colporrhaphy. The surgeon makes an incision in the wall of the woman's vagina and repairs the defect by folding over and sewing together extra supportive tissue between the vagina and bladder. The repair tightens the layers of tissue that separate the organs, creating more support for the bladder. A surgeon who specializes in the urinary tract or female reproductive system performs an anterior vaginal repair in a hospital. The woman receives either regional or general anesthesia. The woman may stay overnight in the hospital, and full recovery may take up to 4 to 6 weeks.
Researchers have not found that eating, diet, and nutrition play a role in causing or preventing a cystocele.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) conducts and supports a variety of research in kidney diseases and urinary tract disorders. The knowledge gained from these studies is advancing scientific understanding of why kidney diseases and urinary tract disorders develop and is leading to improved methods of diagnosing, treating, and preventing them.
Clinical trials are research studies involving people. Clinical trials look at safe and effective new ways to prevent, detect, or treat disease. Researchers also use clinical trials to look at other aspects of care, such as improving the quality of life for people with chronic illnesses.

Billions Recycled through The Beer Store in Ontario
Upon the release of recycling results and their environmental stewardship for The Beer Store in Ontario, I felt compelled to write a post and share the positive news with everyone. The Beer Store (of which Molson is a shareholder) has been doing a terrific job in environmental stewardship since partnering with the Government of Ontario to be the Ontario Deposit Return destination for all beverage alcohol containers.
Brewers have been doing their part for a long time. The industry standard bottle has 47 brewers participating in Canada which means significant re-use of this container and eventual recycling when the bottle wears out. These brewers represent more than 97% of the industry volume in Canada…quite an accomplishment.
The Beer Store role in Ontario's Deposit Return for beverage alcohol is continuing to improve upon environmental stewardship in the province. To read the full report you can download it at the Beer Store's environmental page on their web site.
I will also point you to more details on what Molson and Molson Coors Brewing Company are doing in the context of corporate responsibility by re-directing you to our Molson Coors Brewing Company environmental responsibility page.
What do you think our industry and Molson can be doing to continue to be more environmentally friendly ? Please let us know by commenting below…cheers !

Before this Thanksgiving, Gouverneur resident Jessica M. Ames had never run more than a mile in her life.
But there she was on Thanksgiving Day, running through the outskirts of Watertown, dodging icy patches and braving below-freezing temperatures, during the annual Watertown Family YMCA 5K Turkey Day Run.
Miss Ames, 25, ran all the way and finished with a time of 35:37, coming in 477nd out of 633 participants.
Now, when Miss Ames faces the seasonal holiday caloric blizzard of cookies, cakes and all other things sweet and tasty, she has a different approach than she did a few years ago. She has found strength in numbers by joining a weight-loss support group.
That strategy is also working for a group of civilian workers at Fort Drum who call themselves the Tape Worms. The group's members also have made adjustments to their lifestyles as they work toward their weight-loss goals.
Cathy Moore, a dietitian and an agent at Cornell Cooperative Extension, Watertown, calls the period between Halloween and shortly after the new year "the holiday zone": a place where "time, space, light, food and even friends and family seem to converge to force fat to gather."
Mrs. Moore said people typically gain a pound or two this time of year. But the problem, she said, is that the gain is cumulative.
"Most of us don't lose it," she said. "It's important to prevent the gain rather than trying to lose it after the new year."
But with determination and support, the kind demonstrated by Miss Ames and the Tape Worms, we can come out of "the holiday zone" lighter on our feet.
Miss Ames can't wait to sign up for another run.
"It made me feel like I could become a runner," she said of her experience. "I'm thinking of starting to run outside a few days a week so I will be even better prepared for my next 5K."
This would have been unthinkable for Miss Ames in January 2012, when she weighed 325 pounds.
A month earlier, in December 2011, Miss Ames's mother, Christine Bristol, asked her when she was going to join her at the Take Off Pounds Sensibly chapter that meets Mondays at the Fowler Town Hall.
Miss Ames had been thinking about joining TOPS for months, but that January she finally did. The organization has 315 chapters and 5,764 members across the state and charges members a $28 annual fee.
She now weighs 178 pounds.
"I never thought it would lead to this," Miss Ames said.
The 2007 Canton High School graduate said the weight came off slowly at first.
"Then I started to exercise and just kind of got into that," she said.
She rediscovered the elliptical machine in the basement that her father, Michael Ames, got her for Christmas about five years ago.
In August, she began walking on her treadmill, which had been in her basement "forever."
She now exercises six days a week, including walks outside when the weather is nice.
But her weight loss is about more than exercising.
"It's the support you get from everybody at the TOPS meetings," Miss Ames said. "Everybody is either in that situation or has been in that situation, if they've reached their goal" for weight loss.
At the weekly TOPS weigh-ins, group members share more than the scale.
"It's accountability," Miss Ames said. "Say, if you go somewhere for the weekend to a party or something, you think before you over-indulge. You think, 'I have to weigh in on Monday.' You don't want to ruin all your hard work."
Her diet, Miss Ames said, largely involves cutting down on portions.
"You don't need as much as you think to be full," she said.
She also cut down on carbohydrates like pasta. "You cut out certain things like that and potatoes," she said.
Technology also has assisted her through a smartphone app called MyFitnessPal. It allows users to set a daily calorie goal and record daily food intake and calculate calories expended by exercise to make sure they stay on track.
Friends whom Miss Ames has not seen in years often don't recognize her slimmed-down self.
"I get that a lot," she said. "People don't recognize me or they may think they know me, so they'll ask."
But there's one thing she enjoys more than surprising people with her weight loss.
"I love to go clothes shopping now," Miss Ames, said, giggling. "I can go to any store now and find something, where before it was very limited."
Her advice for others considering a weight-loss plan? "There's no secret," she said. "A lot of it is in your mind. You have to have the mindset of you want to change. It's hard, but it helps if you have that support system to back you up."

MASSENA Town officials will consider whether to hire their own code enforcement officer after Mayor James F. Hidy announced the village will no longer provide code enforcement for the town.
The town has contracted with the village for the past several years to utilize the services of former Code Enforcement Officer Gregory C. Fregoe and firefighters trained in code enforcement. Since Mr. Fregoes resignation Jan. 22, the village has been relying on its career firefighters trained in code enforcement to handle Mr. Fregoes former duties.
In an email sent to town officials Jan. 20, Mr. Hidy wrote that the village would continue to provide code enforcement service outside the village for a short period of time until the town council could implement an alternative for code enforcement.
Mr. Hidy said the decision to stop providing code enforcement for the town is intended to keep firefighters with code training closer to the village for emergency situations.
I dont want (those firefighters) out at the east plant of Alcoa when theres a call in the village, Mr. Hidy said. We had discussed changes in code enforcement, utilizing firemen, and it made perfect sense to keep (those firemen) focused on the village.
Massena Fire Department foreman and career firefighter Ken McGowan said the department has not encountered such a situation yet. But he doesnt see the scenario as a serious problem because the department always has at least two career firefighters on staff.
Mr. Hidy said hed discussed the code enforcement changes with the town and made town officials aware the village may stop providing the service to the town.
But Supervisor Joseph D. Gray said hed received no warning of the change prior to the mysterious email from Mr. Hidy. That announcement came as a surprise to Mr. Gray, who called the lack of forewarning somewhat unprofessional.
Its strange because (Mr. Hidy) talks with me every day, he said.
Mr. Gray plans to hold a special meeting with Town Council members to discuss their options for code enforcement. The only options he sees are to persuade the villages Board of Trustees to continue contracting code enforcement with the town or for the town to hire its own code enforcement officer. Mr. Gray finds the latter option wasteful and unfair. He added that under the arrangement, there would be two code enforcement departments working out of the same office.
For the town to go and hire a separate code enforcement officer seems kind of foolish. Would it also make sense to kick the village out of the town offices? Mr. Gray asked rhetorically, alluding to the fact the office is in the Town Hall, which the town owns.
Were supposed to be cooperating for the community, Mr. Gray added.

MPEG-2 compression is both highly reliable and versatile. Developed by the Moving Pictures Expert Group (MPEG), it is one of the most widely used compression schemes in the industry for camera acquisition, over the air broadcast, cable and satellite TV. Canon's adaptation of MPEG-2 for the XF300 Professional Camcorder, named the Canon XF Codec, ensures the widest compatibility with existing industry infrastructure and non-linear editing (NLE) systems. As well, by using an MXF file wrapper, video and audio can be wrapped in a single file along with important metadata.
The XF300 supports the highest HD quality with Full HD 1920x1080 resolution, up to 50Mbps bit rate and 4:2:2 color sampling.
4:2:2 color sampling provides twice the color resolution of HDV and other codecs that use 4:2:0 color sampling. 4:2:2 provides ultra-fine transitions in tone and color and maintains the highest quality image for use in post production processes such as chroma keying, color grading, advanced compositing and effects.
The codec's 50Mbps constant bit rate provides the bandwidth needed to capture the XF300's superior resolution and color in spectacular detail.

Influenza — what most of us call "the flu" — is a highly contagious viral infection of the respiratory tract.
Flu season runs from October to May. It's best to get a flu shot early in the season, as it gives the body a chance to build up immunity to (protection from) the flu. But getting a flu shot later in the season is still better than not getting the vaccine at all.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now recommends a flu vaccine for everyone 6 months of age and older (instead of just certain groups, as was recommended before). But it's especially important that those in higher-risk groups get vaccinated. They include:
Infants younger than 6 months can't get the vaccine, but if the parents and older kids in the household get it, that will help protect the baby. This is important because infants are more at risk for serious complications from the flu.
Talk to your doctor about how many doses your child needs.
A non-shot option, the nasal mist vaccine, is approved for use in healthy 2- to 49-year-olds. It contains live but weakened virus that will not cause the flu. However, the vaccine isn't recommended for kids with certain medical conditions or pregnant women.
In the past, there have been vaccine shortages and delays. So talk with your doctor about availability, and about which vaccine is right for your kids.
While the flu vaccine isn't 100% effective, it still greatly reduces a person's chances of catching the flu, which can be very serious, and can make symptoms less severe if someone does still get the flu after immunization.
Even if you or your kids got the seasonal flu vaccine last year, that won't protect you from getting the flu this year, because flu viruses constantly change. That's why the vaccine is updated each year to include the most current strains of the virus.
Usually given as an injection in the upper arm, the flu shot contains killed flu viruses that will not cause someone to get the flu, but can cause mild side effects like soreness, redness, or swelling at the injection site. A low-grade fever and aches are also possible.
The nasal spray flu vaccine contains weakened live flu viruses, so it may cause mild flu-like symptoms, including runny nose, headache, vomiting, muscle aches, and fever. Very rarely, the flu vaccine can cause a severe allergic reaction.
Certain circumstances might prevent a person from getting the flu shot. Talk to your doctor to see if a flu shot is recommended if your child falls into any of these groups:
In the past, it was recommended that anyone with an egg allergy talk to a doctor about whether receiving the flu vaccine was safe because it is grown inside eggs. But health experts now say that the amount of egg allergen in the vaccine is so tiny that it (but not the nasal mist) is safe even for kids with a severe egg allergy. This is especially important during a severe flu season, such as the current one, which started earlier and has been much worse than in years past.
Still, a child with an egg allergy should get the flu shot in a doctor's office, not at a supermarket, drugstore, or other venue. And if the allergy is severe, it might need to be given in an allergist's office.
If your child is sick and has a fever, talk to your doctor about rescheduling the flu shot.
Pain and fever may be treated with acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Check with your doctor to see if you can give either medication and to find out the appropriate dose.
A warm, damp cloth or a heating pad at the injection site also may help minimize soreness. Moving or using the limb that has received the injection often reduces the soreness as well.

Three North Country teams came a combined four wins away from capturing three USA Hockey Tier II National Championships over the weekend.
Playing in Indian Trail, North Carolina, near Charlotte, the St. Lawrence Thunder Bantam boys earned a return trip to the 14U title game where they dropped a hard-fought 3-2 decision in overtime to the Ohio 98 Selects on Sunday. Meanwhile, in San Jose, California, the Potsdam Ice Storm 16U Girls saw their first trip to a national final end in a 4-1 loss to the Vermont Shamrocks after the St. Lawrence Thunder 14U Girls had suffered a 2-1 defeat to the Alaska All-Stars in their semi-final round game late Saturday night despite generating a 23-11 advantage in shots. Alaska went on win the national Tier II 14U championship with a 2-0 win over the Connecticut Ice Cats on Sunday.
In the National Tier II 14U 3A Boys Championship Game, one comeback denied another as the Thunder struck for the opening goal then quickly rallied fro ma 2-1 deficit before falling in overtimes to the Ohio 98 Selects.
Jordan Robert, who finished as the leading scorer in the division for the tournament with six goals and 12 assists for 18 points, got the Thunder on the board first in the title game with an unassisted goal at 13:57 of the opening period.
Ohio tied the game on a goal by Joshua Norman at the 14:14 mark then took the lead at 15:37 when Casper Younel connected for a power play goal but Robert pulled the Thunder even just 22 seconds later off an assist from Nate Bressard.
The Thunder outshot the 98 Selects 13-9 in the third period but neither team was able to regain the lead until Tommy Nook lifted the Ohio contingent to its first national title when he converted on a pass from Norman just 1:19 into overtime.
Noah Kormanyos turned aside 26 shots working the Thunder crease while Chase Hunyadi made 26 saves backstopping the win.
Coached by Bobby Smith, along with assistants Dan Bero, Mike McCormick and Chris Kormanyos, the Thunder Bantams posted a 4-2 record at their third straight appearance in the USA Hockey Nationals with both losses coming in overtime. Made up of players from around the North Country, other team members included; The Thunder 14U lineup includes; Dan Casey, Jon Paul Chauvin, Riley Clark, Bailey Conklin, Shane Cryderman, Nick Henrie, Jarrad Jackson, Andrew McCormick, Kaden Pickering, Jordan Robert, Ben Sprague, Turner Thomas, Josh Underwood, Wyatt Wilmshurst and Sam Woods.
After going undefeated through their first five games, the Ice Storm 16U Girls were stopped short of their bid to win a national title when they finally met their match in the title game.
The Shamrocks opened the scoring just 18 seconds into the game on a goal by Chelsea Ellis but the Ice Storm battled back to knot the score 4:13 into the middle frame when Kalie Grant finished off a play set up by Natalie Giglio.
Vermont countered with goals by Molly Dunphy at the 9:13 mark and Rachel Morse just over three minutes later to take control of the scoreboard then put the game away with 2:32 left in regulation when Ellis struck for her second goal of the contest.
Maddi Dillabough turned aside 19 shots for the Thunder while Courtney Peyko had 23 saves through the first 43 minutes and Victoria Gibson stopped the only two shots she faced in nine minutes of action in the combined crease effort for the Shamrocks.
Grant, who tallied nine goals and five assists, and Miller, who notched eight goals and six helpers, both finished with 14 points over the course of the five-day tournament in sharing scoring honors.
Coached by Mike Grant along with assistants Joel Giglio, Shawn Grant and Rick Miller, the Ice Storm lineup consisted of players from several area school districts. Also contributing toward the silver medal showing at nationals were; Kirstin Barkley, Colleen Besaw, MaKaylee Boak, Shannon Casey, Allie Compeau, Bailey Dillabough, Kelsey Green, Ellen Greene, Mia Jermano, Kelley Paduano, Jennifer Tardelli and Emily Wilmshurst.

After a scoreless first period, Alaska relayed the momentum of a late scoring burst in the second period into the national title. Hallie Whitmore converted on a penalty shot with 44 seconds remaining. Kirsten Watts then struck for the eventual game-winner just 40 seconds later.
The Thunder outshot Alaska 8-3 in the third period and final got on the board when Katie MacCuaig netted an unassisted goal with just 11 seconds left in regulation.

Rookery Bay Earth Day 2012
Rain hampered but didn't totally wash out Earth Day at Rookery Bay. While outdoor activities like hiking & kayaking were mostly a bust the sophisticated indoor learning center saved the day. Families enjoyed everything from the touch tank and fish feeding to a series of highly produced nature movies. Displays inside educated people on the nature and value of our estuarine and mangrove environments with replica birds, fish and informational signage too. Later on a live snake presentation held attendees' attention. For more info on the facility including membership & activities visit http://www.rookerybay.org/learning-center .

Some Interesting Numbers
People point to two metrics, Player Efficiency Rating (PER) and true shooting percentage, as the standard evaluation for a star player. You can get crazy and combine PER and salary to get a dollar for dollar value, but that's a little crazy. Unless a player who has a terrible contract is either injured (Eddy Curry) or has had a mental meltdown (Rip Hamilton) and their production is atrocious dollar for dollar value is moot because many players have career years before contracts.It is useful for good role players, however.
Anyway, you can form opinions and posts in many ways.
For example, it's hard to imagine that Derrick Rose isn't a top 3 MVP candidate. His PER is 23.22 which is currently 12th in the NBA. In fact, although I consider him a scoring guard, he's not even the highest rated PG. He's third.
His 54% TS% is apparently the league average. He's a less "true" shooter than Shawne Williams. I use Rose as an example because I don't think high volume-shot point guards can win a championship. Many people would take Manu Ginobili over Rose. You may think they are crazy and may be wrong or stupid or clueless, but the numbers side with them. It's a hypothetical argument. Those say they would take Rose will never budge. Rose, by the way, has a lower TS% than Carmelo Anthony. Carmelo is 27th (down from 20th last year) in small forward TS%, but is one of 3 (Durant, Lebron) with a TS% of over 54% and a PER over 20.
TKB favorite Arron Afflalo leads all shooting guards in TS%. Landry Fields is 4th both are shooting over 60%. Does that mean they should get MORE shot attempts? No. The MORE shots they take the LESS effective they are. Afflalo takes 9 shots per game. The other night he shot 8-17, which isn't bad, and 2-7 from 3. The law of averages tells the story of TS%. The league average is 54%. Afflalo is a nice player, but a great TS% year may lead to more minutes, bigger money, more shots and less efficiency. Afflalo is an interesting player. He plays over 35 minutes per game but only takes 9 FGAs. That is sure to change now that Billups and Melo are gone. Let's see if his TS% drops. I have a hunch it will.
We'll check back in with him. Oh, and one more thing, his PER is a very average AT HIS POSITION 13 and change. That's about one "point" ahead of Gerald Henderson. He's right there in the conversation for most improved player in the entire NBA.
To me, TS% is a big man stat. Ty Chandler, ironically, couldn't hit the rim from 20 feet so he doesn't shoot from outside 5. He leads the league with a 70% TS%. Brian Cardinal is 6th in the ENTIRE NBA. Dirk is 14th. Does that mean the Mavericks are the best team in the NBA? I think the Mavs are a sleeper, but their playoff record is well-documented. The Spurs have one 1 player in the top 15. Duncan? Nope. Manu or Parker? Guess again.
Matt Bonner is the 3rd highest TS% in the NBA.
And because Chauncey Billups is 7th, does that make him better than Derrick Rose? Much higher TS% and his PER is 8th among NBA PGs, 5 slots behind Rose.
Tiago Splitter plays 11 minutes per game and has a TS% in the top 20.
Chris Bosh is 29th in power forwards in TS%, Amar'e Stoudemire is 19th. The more minutes you play the less efficient you are. There are only 6 players in the top 50 who play 35 minutes or more. 21 of the top 50 play 30 or more.
Numbers are fun, but as we know, can also be very, very misleading.

Map coming soon . . .
What types of beer can I drink?
We all know rehydrating is the most important part of any race. That's why we offer some of the best post-race beverages out there. Nothing replenishes the electrolytes quite like Sam Adams Winter or Boston Lager; both available at the finish line. We'll also be serving Angry Orchard hard apple cider for the non-beer drinkers out there.
Is beer for sale?
Unfortunately, we will not be selling beers on-site; you'll receive one beer with every 21+ registration and cannot buy additional beer.
Can kids participate?
All kids 5 and under are FREE. If they would like a hat, you can purchase a kids ticket during checkout for $10.
Can I push a stroller?
Depends. Have you been eating your Wheaties? Strollers are allowed during the run. We recommend decking your stroller out in something ugly as well.
Can dogs participate?
We would love to have your 4-legged friends at The Ugly Sweater Run if the venue allows! Just remember that it is your responsibility to pick up after them. Please check the city specific page to make sure dogs are allowed in your area!
Are there refunds?
Unfortunately, there is a NO refund policy. In the case of a change in venue, no refunds can be offered if the new location is within 1 1/2 hour drive from previous location.
How do I transfer my registration to another person?
To change your registration, feel free to contact us or follow these instructions!
How can I sign up with a group?
If you choose to join a group, click on the location you wish to participate at under the locations menu. Once on the city page, click "BUY NOW". Choose the ticket option that reads: Group 4+ Runners (Per Person), and the amount of people you are registering, then click "Order Now." Next, you will fill out all your information and Group Name. Make sure all of your group members use the same group name. You are unable to keep track of who registers through Eventbrite, so make sure you are all communicating on email with each other.
If I can't make it to packet pickup can someone else pick up my packet for me?
Yes, just make sure they have a copy of your event ticket when you registered.
Does this race benefit a charity?
Proceeds raised through the Ugly Sweater Run benefit Save the Children. Save the Children invests in childhood – every day, in times of crisis and for our future. In the United States and around the world, Save the Children gives children a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. We encourage all of our runners to make a donation to Save the Children at the time of registering. Every dollar counts! Learn more about the great work that Save the Children does, by clicking here.
Is this a timed event?
No. If you want to wear spandex under your sweater and race fast, that's cool, but you're missing the point. This is a fun-run to burn some calories before slamming some Hot Chocolate and Sam Adams.
How do you feel about walkers?
We love walkers. Feel free to walk, jog, skip, or dance through the 3.1 miles. We just ask that you be aware of runners, please!
What do I get with my registration fee?

I left something behind, is there a lost and found?
Yes. We will have a lost and found during the event at the registration tents. If you've lost something after the race feel free to email firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll do our best to track it down.
I can't run, can I still get my packet?
Yes, but you'll be missing out on the greatest holiday race around! You will have to pick up your packet at Packet Pick up the day before, or on race day if you cannot participate.
I have a friend who would like to volunteer, can he help?
Absolutely! We love volunteers and can always use them. Have them email email@example.com for more information or click on the volunteer tab on the website.
Aid Stations on course?
There will be 1 aid station on course. The aid station will be serving both hot chocolate and water...separately, of course.
Are bikes allowed?
Nope. However, reindeers and sleighs are. That's a joke. Running / walking only.

10,000,000 that depend on our aviation infrastructure will benefit from the project and a few thousand locals that moved there knowing where the airport was will be adversely affected. Oh dear! What shall we do? Give me a break L.A. Why are you wasting money you don't have even debating this?
NIMBYism at it's finest...
Bill/Jim - That's negative.
Come live here.
I was born there, escaped, and won't be back except by airline to visit the few relatives yet to escape.
Live where, Gene? Near an airport? Thanks, but no... they're noisy... or did you not know that at the time? Do you use the airport Gene? Do flight delays aggravate you? Just curious as to who's "using two forks" here. I don't see them adding concrete here. I seem them moving a runway so they can do parallel ops and handle larger aircraft on that side of the airport. While it would increase traffic some, sounds like just another reason for folks to bitch.
And yes, that's negative...
It never fails....the airports want to eat with two forks.
Much like the statement given by Fat Fred Smith during the recent
hearings....." We need more runways ", We need Next Gen, We need more flights, We need the FAA to help us get more planes up !!

Neighbors wondered why a group of doctors could move into a single-family house on Ward Street when it was is in a Residential A district and such a hoopla was recently made over the so-called roommate law.
Nova M. and Christian T. Schenk watched last week while furniture was moved into the single-family house at 115 Ward St. They became more curious when they learned that Samaritan Medical Center rented the four-bedroom house to accommodate third- and fourth-year medical students, Mrs. Schenk said.
We had just read about that roommate law, Mr. Schenk said.
For months, the Watertown City Council faced a backlash from its controversial amendment to the zoning law limiting the number of nonrelatives living together to four.
On Thursday, the citys Code Enforcement Office received a complaint about the Ward Street house from Stewart E. Perkins, who lives across the street at 116 Ward St. He wanted to know why Samaritan was able to use the house for a dormitory, city officials said. Mr. Perkins declined to comment about his complaint on Monday.
While Mr. Perkins never mentioned the zoning change to the city, the controversy immediately came to mind with Mr. and Mrs. Schenk.
And the complaint created a stir for a couple of days with city officials, who had to figure out if the hospital could use the fully furnished house for the medical students and whether it came under the new zoning rule. Rooming and boarding houses, dormitories, fraternity houses and bed-and-breakfasts are not permitted in Residential A districts.
The so-called roommate law first came before the council in January, after a Thompson Boulevard resident complained that her neighbor was living with his fiancee and two friends. The engaged couple has since married. The neighborhood is made up of single-family houses and is zoned as a Residential A district.
Last week, the council voted to keep the zoning change, despite a public relations nightmare it caused along with accusations that city officials were trying to regulate lifestyles and living arrangements. And council members vowed the issue was over and would not come up again.
It has.
Code Enforcement Officer Shawn R. McWayne, the city attorneys office and other city officials had to examine the Ward Street situation to determine whether the living arrangement would come under the zoning change.
If so, the hospital would have to find someplace else for the four medical students to live.
In the end, Mr. McWayne determined the living arrangement appears to be authorized under the citys zoning laws, he wrote in a letter on Monday to Samaritan officials.
The four medical students are working on short-term rotations at the hospital before they make a decision on whether to attend SMCs medical education residency program, according to a letter from Chris Bastien, the hospitals assistant vice president for support services.
Samaritan officials found themselves looking for a new location because the lease for its current location, a 13-apartment building at 522 Washington St., will expire Aug. 31. So they went through Conleys Rental Management and Real Estate, 451 Arsenal St., to find another place to rent. The students will move in after Sept. 1. The Ward Street house has been vacant since a military family moved out of the area this past winter, Mrs. Schenk said.
Samaritan spokeswoman Krista A. Kittle said the house could lead to physicians staying in Watertown to practice. At no time will more than four students be living there, according to the hospital. That was crucial in Mr. McWaynes decision that it is permissible.
Both the city and the hospital dodged a bullet, solely because the situation involves fewer than five students living there.
To distinguish a family from a club, fraternity or boarding house, not more than four members of a family shall be other than blood relatives, according to the current city zoning law on roommates.
Kenneth A. Mix, the citys planning and community development coordinator, further explained that the house will be a primary use by the hospital, not an accessory use under the roommate law, so the medical students can live there. An accessory use would occur if the students and the owner lived in it; then the roommate law would apply, Mr. Mix explained.
They are a family under the definition of a family, Mr. Mix said.
If it was more than the four medical students, Mr. McWayne would have ruled the hospital could not use the house because it would then not meet the definition of family since they are not related, Mr. Mix said.
As for the Schenks, they dont mind living next to a group of medical students.
Its a lot better than having 10 kids home alone next door and their parents are at work all day, Mrs. Schenk said.

The rumors about a cheaper unlocked iPhone 4 have been around for a long time. They first started a few weeks ago when reports stated that an iPhone-mini version was being worked on. these rumors were quickly shot down and now it appears that instead of a smaller version of the iPhone, Apple might just be looking into creating a version of the iPhone that features lower quality hardware and is able to be sold for a cheaper price.
The Apple COO, Tim Cook stated in a recent press event that Apple does not want their products to only be for "the rich," and confirmed that they are looking to release cheaper versions of their products in order to make them appeal to a larger selection of people. Of course, the rumors of a cheaper version of the iPhone have been all over the net in recent months, but Apple has not really addressed them as directly as they did today.
Apple is also looking into expanding into the prepaid market. The moves that Apple was looking to make in the prepaid market was described as "clever," although Tim Cook did not go any farther with his explanations then that. He also confirmed that Apple was going to be aggressively pursuing the tablet market moving forward, as the demand for those devices has risen substantially over the course of the last few weeks.
some have said that they believe that tablets could one day end up being as much as a $100 billion business for Apple, followed by other companies who are releasing devices in the space. With technology moving so quickly, who knows what kind of features could be included with tablets in the future. Watch for more rumors of a cheaper iPhone 4 unlocked and other prepaid plans being released at some point in the near future.

After winning four Super Bowls in the 80's and one in the 90's, the San Francisco 49ers have been without an appearence in football's biggest game since 1995.
That is until now.
Behind the arm strength and speed of quarterback Colin Kaepernick a nd a stout defense led by linebacker Patrick Willis, the 49ers have returned to the Super Bowl for the first time since winning it in 1995.
With Kaepernick taking over for former starting quarterback Alex Smith midway through the season, the 49ers have added an entirely new dimension to their offense with Kaepernick's ability to run and scramble out of the pocket.
While the offense has been getting plenty of press lately, it is the play of the 49ers defense which has led them to two straight NFC Championship appearences and now a Super Bowl.
If the 49ers want to win, the offense must establish an ability to move the ball against a tough Ravens defense which will help in keeping the 49ers defense off the field and rested throughout the game.
Ray Lewis is calling it a career at the end of the season.
And there's nothing the rest of the Baltimore Ravens would like than to send him out with a Super Bowl victory.
Winners of the NFC North, the Ravens have won three straight games to return to the big game for the first time since winning it all back in 2001.
The Ravens defeated the Indianapolis Colts 24-9 and followed that up with a 38-35 double overtime win over the Broncos in Denver. And to reach the Super Bowl the Ravens played a dominate second half in a 28-13 win over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.
While Baltimore has been known for a tough defense, the offense has also been playing better in the playoffs.
Quarterback Joe Flacco, running back Ray Rice and receivers Anquan Boldin and Torrey Smith pace an offensive attack that has averaged 30 points per game.
If the Ravens want to win, the defense must slow down a 49ers offensive attack that likes to control the clock. Scoring early on offense will force the 49ers out of their comfort zone and right into the hands of a Ravens defense ready for the challenge of stopping Colin Kaepernick.

It was a day for low scores Monday on the boys' side of the Los Alamos Fall Invitational.
The Los Alamos Hilltopper boys golf team hosted the tournament, which was played at Los Alamos Golf Course. The competition, played under near ideal conditions, boasted a dozen sub-80 rounds on the day.
Nearly half of those low scores were posted by the Hope Christian Huskies. The Huskies, who play in the small-school classification, had all five of their top players shoot under 80 Monday, while their sixth player missed by just two strokes on joining them.
Hope ran away with the team title Monday, firing a team score of 304, 22 shots ahead of runner-up Bernalillo, which finished with a very respectable 326.
The Hilltoppers placed fifth in team competition, shooting a 348. In all, seven full teams took part in the tournament.
Los Alamos head coach John Stam, the school's reigning Coach of the Year, said the fall 2010 season is going to be about improvement.
"We made a lot of progress from the last tournament to this one," Stam said. "Some of the kids' short game is really coming along."
Monday's tournament was the second of the season for the Hilltoppers, who finished third at the Bernalillo Invitational earlier this month.

Comments about Mens Tasc Performance Carrollton T Short Sleeve Technical Tops:
Great looking shirt, extremely comfortable to wear, wicks away moisture and dries quickly. Most synthetic wiking materials start to stink very quickly, and this shirt does not have that problem. As a result, it's a good choice for wearing around town in hot weather (as opposed to something you'd only wear while working out, for example). The only minor compliant I have is that there are prominent logos on both front and back of the shirt; without those it would fit will in a wider variety of settings.

A record-breaking crowd of an estimated 500,000 pro-life Americans gathered on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Friday to demonstrate their commitment to stand, pray, and work for an end to legalized abortion in America. Marking the 40th anniversary of the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling that gave women the "right" to kill their pre-born babies, speakers noted that over 55 million babies have been sacrificed on the altars of convenience and "choice," while the majority of Americans have stood by, passively accepting the ongoing holocaust.
"Can a nation long endure that does not respect the sanctity of life?" U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.), one of the national legislators to speak, asked the sober crowd. "Can a nation conceived in liberty carry its head high if it denies protection to the youngest and most vulnerable of its citizens?" Noting that "great nations and great civilizations spring from a people who have a moral compass," Paul declared that America "is adrift in a wilderness where right and wrong have become subservient to the hedonism of the moment." He challenged the crowd that "our country is in need of a revival. I believe our country is in need of a spiritual cleansing."
Before opening the rally in prayer, Cardinal Sean O'Malley, Archbishop of Boston, got a rousing cheer from attendees when he relayed that Pope Benedict had tweeted his support of the rally. "I join all those marching for life from afar," said the Pope's message, "and pray that political leaders will protect the unborn and promote a culture of life."
Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum related the journey of life he and his wife Karen have taken with their disabled daughter Bella, who was born with the devastating genetic disorder Trisomy-18. "We were encouraged to abort, because she would be saddled with disabilities and it would be better for her," Santorum recalled. "But we all know death is never better. What it's about is it would be easier for us.... Bella is better for us, and we are better because of Bella."

I'm not happy about this trade either. For a lousy 1.8 mil I would have rather hung onto Andino who gives depth and dependability at the position not to mention a quality of toughness and attitude that played well on this team since his arrival. I wish Roberts well and hope he makes a dramatic comeback but he is still a longshot in my book. I really hope Flaherty is ready to take charge
