Kidney and Urologic Diseases
Kidney stones can form when substances in the urine—such as calcium, oxalate, and phosphorus—become highly concentrated. The body uses food for energy and tissue repair. After the body uses what it needs, waste products in the bloodstream are carried to the kidneys and excreted as urine. Diet is one of several factors that can promote or inhibit kidney stone formation. Certain foods may promote stone formation in people who are susceptible, but scientists do not believe that eating any specific food causes stones to form in people who are not susceptible. Other factors that affect kidney stone formation include genes, environment, body weight, and fluid intake.
Read more about kidney stones in Kidney Stones in Adults and Kidney Stones in Children.
Four major types of kidney stones can form:
The first step in preventing kidney stones is to understand what is causing the stones to form. This information helps the health care provider suggest diet changes to prevent future kidney stones. For example, limiting oxalate in the diet may help prevent calcium oxalate stones but will do nothing to prevent uric acid stones. Some dietary recommendations may apply to more than one type of stone. Most notably, drinking enough fluids helps prevent all kinds of kidney stones by keeping urine diluted and flushing away materials that might form stones.
If a person can catch a kidney stone as it passes, it can be sent to a lab for analysis. Stones that are causing symptoms can be retrieved surgically or with a scope inserted through the urethra into the bladder or ureter, then sent to a lab for analysis.
Blood and urine can also be tested for unusual levels of chemicals such as calcium, oxalate, and sodium to help determine what type of kidney stone a person may have had.
People can help prevent kidney stones by making changes in fluid intake and, depending on the type of kidney stone, changes in consumption of sodium, animal protein, calcium, and oxalate.
Drinking enough fluids each day is the best way to help prevent most types of kidney stones. Health care providers recommend that a person drink 2 to 3 liters of fluid a day. People with cystine stones may need to drink even more. Though water is best, other fluids may also help prevent kidney stones, such as citrus drinks.
Recommendations based on the specific type of kidney stone include the following:
People who have had a kidney stone should drink enough water and other fluids to produce at least 2 liters of urine a day. People who have had cystine stones may need to drink even more. The amount of fluid each person needs to drink depends on the weather and the person's activity level—people who work or exercise in hot weather need more fluid to replace the fluid they lose through sweat. A 24-hour urine collection may be used to determine the volume of urine produced during a day. If the volume of urine produced is too low, the person can be advised to increase fluid intake. Drinking enough fluid is the most important thing a person can do to prevent kidney stones.
Some studies suggest citrus drinks like lemonade and orange juice protect against kidney stones because they contain citrate, which stops crystals from growing into stones.
Sodium, often from salt, causes the kidneys to excrete more calcium into the urine. High concentrations of calcium in the urine combine with oxalate and phosphorus to form stones. Reducing sodium intake is preferred to reducing calcium intake.
The U.S. recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of sodium is 2,300 milligrams (mg), but Americans' intake averages 3,400 mg, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.1 The risk of kidney stones increases with increased daily sodium consumption. People who form calcium oxalate or calcium phosphate stones should limit their intake to the U.S. RDA level, even if they take medications to prevent kidney stones.
1U.S. Department of Agriculture and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010. 7th ed. Washington, D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office; December 2010.
Learning the sodium content of foods can help people control their sodium intake. Food labels provide information about sodium and other nutrients. Keeping a sodium diary can help a person limit sodium intake to 2,300 mg. When eating out, people should ask about the sodium content of the foods they order.
Some foods have such large amounts of sodium that a single serving provides a major portion of the RDA. Foods that contain high levels of sodium include
People who are trying to limit their sodium intake should check labels for ingredients and hidden sodium, such as
Meats and other animal protein—such as eggs and fish—contain purines, which break down into uric acid in the urine. Foods especially rich in purines include organ meats, such as liver. People who form uric acid stones should limit their meat consumption to 6 ounces each day.
Animal protein may also raise the risk of calcium stones by increasing the excretion of calcium and reducing the excretion of citrate into the urine. Citrate prevents kidney stones, but the acid in animal protein reduces the citrate in urine.
Calcium from food does not increase the risk of calcium oxalate stones. Calcium in the digestive tract binds to oxalate from food and keeps it from entering the blood, and then the urinary tract, where it can form stones. People who form calcium oxalate stones should include 800 mg of calcium in their diet every day, not only for kidney stone prevention but also to maintain bone density. A cup of low-fat milk contains 300 mg of calcium. Other dairy products such as yogurt are also high in calcium. For people who have lactose intolerance and must avoid dairy products, orange juice fortified with calcium or dairy with reduced lactose content may be alternatives. Calcium supplements may increase the risk of calcium oxalate stones if they are not taken with food.
Some of the oxalate in urine is made by the body. However, eating certain foods with high levels of oxalate can increase the amount of oxalate in the urine, where it combines with calcium to form calcium oxalate stones. Foods that have been shown to increase the amount of oxalate in urine include
Avoiding these foods may help reduce the amount of oxalate in the urine.
A dietitian can help a person plan meals that lower the risk of forming stones based on the type of stone the person formed in the past. A person with a history of kidney stones may want to talk to a dietitian who specializes in kidney stone prevention or nutrition for people with kidney problems.
A dietitian can also help overweight people plan meals to help them lose weight. Studies have shown that being overweight increases the risk of kidney stones, particularly uric acid stones. Diets that are low in carbohydrates have been shown to further increase the risk of uric acid stones and should be avoided.
Studies have shown the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet can reduce the risk of kidney stones. The DASH diet is high in fruits and vegetables, moderate in low-fat dairy products, and low in animal protein. More information about the DASH diet can be found on the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's website at www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/health-topics/topics/dash.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) funds research on the causes, treatments, and prevention of kidney stones. The International Registry for Hereditary Kidney Stone Diseases, funded under National Institutes of Health (NIH) clinical trial number NCT00588562, collects medical information from a large number of patients with kidney stones to create a registry that will help researchers compare similarities and differences in patients and their symptoms.
The Study of the Biological and Physical Manifestations of Spontaneous Uric Acid Kidney Stone Disease, funded under NIH clinical trial number NCT00904046, aims to determine how much fat accumulates within cells and how it affects the kidneys by correlating kidney fat content with urine test results. A second aim is to evaluate the effect of the medication thiazolidinedione on excess fatty acid accumulation in kidney tissue and its correlation with uric acid stone formation.
Tamsulosin for Urolithiasis in the Emergency Department, funded under NIH clinical trial number NCT00382265, studies the effectiveness and safety of tamsulosin in treatment of kidney stones. Other areas of focus include reduction in time to pain-free recovery, decrease in narcotic medication for pain, less need for follow-up, decrease in the need for surgery, and cost savings.
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.

Comments about Patagonia Ultralight Down Hoody (Women's):
I saw this jacket on someone in line at the post office and had to ask her how she liked it. She raved about it because it was so light and versatile. So I had my eye on this since I was planning a trip. It is great for an ocean breeze or a much cooler climate. It packs so tiny and is light as a feather. It feels comfy like a blanket. When I see others with the Patagonia jackets I ask them how they like them and everyone loves, absolutely loves their Patagonias. My sister has her eye on one now.

When Melanie Madsen was running cross country and track for Carbon High School, she often dominated opponents despite her small stature. Upon graduation she headed off to college and she found her home in the tropical setting of Hawaii.
Running for BYU-Hawaii, she has consistently been one of the top finishers for the Lady Seasiders. At an invitational held at the campus in Hawaii on Sept. 25 the womens team beat up the competition with Madsen putting in a time of 20:35.
BYU-Hawaii is a Division II school that participates in the Pacific West Athletic Conference, which includes Chaminade University, Hawaii Pacific University, Montana State at Billings, Western New Mexico University and University of Hawaii at Hilo.
This past weekend the Lady Seasiders won the conference championship in cold and wet weather in Billings, Mont. While not named to the all conference team after the meet, Madsen was still a key element in her team winning the championship with a 20:11 time and taking 16th place in the meet.
Now the team goes onto a regional meet and if successful there will go on to nationals.

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - Governor Paul LePage held a summit Tuesday with county sheriffs in Maine to pledge to find a solution to the jail funding crisis.
All 16 Sheriffs met with the Governor for about an hour and 15 minutes.
When they emerged, Kennebec County Sheriff Randy Liberty, who is also the President of the Maine Sheriff's Association, spoke for the group. Sheriff Liberty says they were encouraged by the meeting. Liberty says Governor LePage is aware of the fiscal challenges and is "very willing to work with" the sheriff departments.
But Sheriffs will also need the support of lawmakers. Senator Stan Gerzofsky, who chairs the criminal justice committee, says the legislature ultimately holds the purse strings.
Gerzofsky says he was surprised that sheriffs went directly to the governor, when just last month his committee proposed a stopgap plan to help jails.
Sheriff Liberty says the governor is pulling together an ad hoc committee including representatives from all parties to find a quick solution and quick money.
Androscoggin County Sheriff Guy Desjardins says he will have to close his jail on May 17th unless the state provides $184,000.

PHILADELPHIA When Indian River missed its first three 3-point field goals of the game Friday night, it looked like the Warriors were in for a long night.
But all it took was a few of those long-range shots to go down to awaken the Indian River perimeter game. They made eight threes the remainder of the first half, including five by senior Justin Mattingly, and went on to a 71-51 Section 3 Class A first-round boys basketball victory over Fowler.
Indian River (14-5), the No. 6 seed, advanced to Tuesdays quarterfinal at No. 3 Cortland (16-2) at 7 p.m.
Juniors Daniel Angelo (15 points) and Shelton Williams (19 points) each hit three 3-pointers, and Indian River used its pressure defense to force 24 turnovers and record 15 steals en route to the schools first sectional win in seven years.
No way did I anticipate a game like that, said Indian River coach Tim Callahan, who had scouted Fowler and figured the No. 11 Falcons (5-11) would give his club a much tougher game despite a poor record. But I thought we really moved the ball well that first half and made the extra pass to get great shots. When those shots are going down, it makes your offense really click.
Mattingly, who passed older brother Jerrod as the schools single-season 3-point field-goal leader last week, said shooting is so contagious. Once you see that first one go in, you think you cant miss. Its like youre shooting into the ocean.
Trailing 6-4 early, Mattingly hit his first three at the 3:54 mark of the opening quarter. He hit two more before the period was over, helping vault Indian River into a 19-10 lead.
Angelo got into the act in the second quarter, hitting back-to-back 3-pointers over the Fowler zone. Williams and Mattingly then finished off the first half with the seventh and eighth 3-pointers of the half to boost the halftime lead to 40-22.
Forty points in a half is by far the most weve scored this year, Callahan said. I just figured they would switch out of the zone at some point, but for some reason they waited until the second half.
Indian Rivers pressure defense held the Falcons (5-12) to just nine third-quarter points. And the Warriors stopped firing from the outside and went inside more against the Fowler man-to-man.
We mixed up the press quite a bit and it really bothered them, Callahan said. Our guys were active with their hands and feet and really covered a lot of ground.
The Warriors led by as many as 30 points in the third quarter.
Junior Marcus Keys also scored 13 points and grabbed 13 rebounds for Indian River. Luis Cirino led Fowler with 16 points.
Mattingly said Indian Rivers confidence level is high right now. But we know Cortland is really good, and that well have to play even better than tonight to beat them.
Cortlands only losses were to Class AA Christian Brothers Academy (50-43) and to defending state Class B champion Bishop Ludden (57-51). The Red Dragons beat Fowler 63-52 on Jan. 15.
They have good size and some good guards, Callahan said. Hopefully, our pressure can force some turnovers and we can continue making shots.

Sharing Memories (Week 30): Weddings!
This week's topic is Weddings. I couldn't post yesterday as I couldn't connect to the Internet all afternoon. So here we go for today.
Do you know when your parents or grandparents were married? What city or town? Do you have photographs? Who was in the wedding party? Where did they go for their honeymoon (if they had one). Write about this and make sure you write about your wedding(s) too if you had any!
I'm very lucky to have a photograph of my great-grandparents on their wedding day in Ramsgate England in 1882.
I also have a photo of my grandparents on their wedding day in Toronto Ontario in 1914. My grandmother was married three times and I'm lucky enough to have photos of each of her weddings.
And to top it off, i am so lucky as I have another photo of my parents on their wedding day. Theirs was a double wedding with my mother's sister marrying her husband the same day and time.
I love the formality of wedding photographs!

I love weddings. Maybe that's why I married a professional photographer so I could work at weddings with him!
How lucky you are to have your grandparent's wedding photos. I have my parents photos, but each set of grandparents had small wedding; one even eloped.
Thanks for sharing these pictures. I love them!
- mjhellman said...
What a excellent topic! You have got me thinking now for sure.
- Nancy said...
Your photographs are beautiful. I think it's especially touching to see your ggrandmother's hand on her husband's shoulder in their wedding photo. I wonder if they'd even touched before that time. (I'm obviously not clear on courting protocol of that time period.) I think the photo of the sisters with their beautiful hats tipped at exactly the same angle. Wonderful photographs!

"Movies have now gone past the phase of prose narrative and are coming nearer and nearer to poetry. I am trying to free my work from certain constrictions--a story with a beginning, a development, an ending. It should be more like a poem, with metre and cadence." Thus Federico Fellini, in a recent New Yorker article by Lillian Ross, speaking about his latest film, Juliet of the Spirits. What he describes is not a new impulse in filmmaking; it has been felt by (among others) such varied directors as Vigo, Ozu, and Godard.
Kennedy by Theodore C. Sorensen (Harper & Row; $10) The way of the political memoirist, as Mr. Theodore C. Sorensen and Prof. Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., are currently learning, can be a thorny path. For any responsible now-it-can-be-told exercise must begin with responsive answers to the snarled questions: When is "now"? What is "it"? How is it "told"? The memoirist must shape his responses from many values and tests: taste and timing, fairness and compassion, pertinence and precision, sober scholarship and simple' humanity.
To Defense Secretary McNamara the overriding fact of life is the existence of nuclear weapons and he is realistic about them. This April, McNamara caused a furor in Washington by remarking, off the record, that the US was not pledged not to use nuclear weapons in Vietnam--He then had to go on the record to say this: "I think it's perfectly apparent there's no military requirement for the use of nuclear weapons in the current situation.
Peking—In a rare interview which lasted about four hours, Mao Tse-tung conversed with me on topics ranging over what he himself called shan nan hai pei, or "from south of the mountains to north of the seas." With China's bountiful 200-million-ton 1964 grain harvest taxing winter storage capacities, with shops everywhere offering inexpensive foods and consumer goods necessities, and with technological and scientific advances climaxed by an atomic bang that saluted Khrushchev's political demise. Chairman Mao might well have claimed a few creative achievements.
Today there are 15 million Americans over 65; by 1970 there will be 17 million. They need more doctoring than the majority of us; they are more prone to suffer from degenerative diseases affecting the heart, lungs, digestive tract and arteries. Treatment of those diseases tends to be prolonged and expensive. An average American couple over the age of 65 typically spends $312 a year on medical expenses other than hospitalization; and in any year the typical elderly individual has a 13-percent chance of being hospitalized.

Read: Fixing Wright
According to Buster Olney at ESPN.com, David Wright is one of the tangible things that the Mets need to fix for the 2009 season.
In the report, Olney writes:
"They need to help him work through his apparent anxiety in high-pressure situations … He cares so deeply that he puts enormous pressure on himself, and this trait seems to wreck him in big spots. He seems to leap at the ball when he's trying to hit with the game on the line. They need to address this."
"I don't know how they do it. Maybe they get Wright to start talking to a sports psychologist, someone who might get the kind of help that has aided John Smoltz and Matt Garza and others. Wright is a cornerstone player who will be an MVP candidate in most years of his career, so the notion of trading him is silly. But they have to help him find a way to relax — and if the team's best player relaxes, this will, in turn, take pressure off the rest of the team."
…i can't imagine the pressure put on this lineup when you know that no lead, or small deficit for that matter, is safe…granted wright hasn't been clutch with RISP, but suggesting the guy needs a shrink is a little much…

As the Obama administration rushes to deploy the U.S. military in Egypt in defiance of Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, Representative Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Senator Tom Udall (D-N.M.) have offered bills that would block the pipeline of U.S. military aid flowing to al-Qaeda in Syria.
Joined by Republican Representatives Justin Amash (Mich.), Walter Jones (N.C.), Ted Yoho (Fla.), Phil Roe (Tenn.), Mo Brooks (Ala.), Joe Pitts (Penn.), Mark Meadows (N.C.), Scott DesJarlais (Tenn.), and Louie Gohmert (Texas), Representative Massie introduced H.R. 2507, a measure that points out the president's violation of the separation of powers — particularly regarding the authority to declare war — in the supplying of military arms and funds to Syrian forces opposing the al-Assad government.
As Massie explained in a statement announcing the bill:
Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution gives Congress — not the President — the power to declare war. But the President recently announced his intention to send arms to the rebels in Syria fighting President Bashar al-Assad's regime. H.R. 2507, the War Powers Protection Act of 2013, prohibits any military assistance to Syrian opposition forces unless Congress issues a formal declaration of war pursuant to Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution.
Since our national security interests in Syria are unclear, we risk giving money and military assistance to our enemies. Additionally, all military action must be authorized by Congress. The American people deserve open debate by their elected officials.
Justin Amash, one of the bill's cosponsors, echoed Massie's understanding of the Constitution and the power to declare war:
The Constitution empowers Congress — and only Congress — to declare war. Congress has not declared war against Syria or otherwise authorized force in that country, yet the President unilaterally has decided to arm the Syrian rebels. His action is unconstitutional and must be stopped.
Massie's bill is particularly timely given President Obama's announcement that he will authorize the shipment of U.S. military material to "rebels" in Syria.

Submission Stallman on Unity: Canonical will have to hand over users' data to governments->
Giorgio Maone writes: "Ubuntu developer and fellow mozillian Benjamin Kerensa chatted with various people about the new Amazon Product Results in the Ubuntu 12.10 Unity Dash. Among them, Richard Stallman told him that this feature is bad because: 1. "If Canonical gets this data, it will be forced to hand it over to various governments."; 2. Amazon is bad.

For a number of reasons, some infants, toddlers and preschool-age children may need access to special education services before they enter kindergarten. They may have an identified disability or developmental delay, or they may be at risk for a developmental delay. Any aspect of a child's physical, mental or emotional development that may interfere with his or her ability to benefit fully from regular education services can qualify a child for special education. Prevention and early intervention are key to helping children develop to their full potential.Prevention
Lead poisoning, malnutrition and prenatal exposure to drugs and alcohol are known causes of developmental delays in young children. Eliminating these and other environmental hazards through increased public awareness and improved prenatal care can reduce the occurrence and severity of many disabilities, such as fetal alcohol syndrome, mental retardation, and social and behavioral problems.
Other disabilities that cannot be prevented can be identified at birth. When these conditions, including certain metabolic disorders and hearing loss, are detected and treated early, their effects can be mitigated and a child's social, emotional and educational outcomes can be improved greatly.
No matter the disability, early detection and appropriate intervention are essential to improving outcomes for children.Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1997 is the federal special education law. States must meet the requirements of IDEA to receive federal funding for special education. IDEA includes major provisions to ensure young children in need of special education have access to appropriate services from birth to school entry. States may apply for preschool grants to provide school-based special education programs for 3- to 5-year-olds. IDEA also provides grants to states to offer early identification and early intervention services for infants and toddlers. These grants may be combined with other federal (e.g., Title I, Medicaid), state (e.g., general education, special education), local (e.g., mill levies) or individual (e.g., private insurance) funding streams to meet the special education needs of young children.
IDEA is being considered for reauthorization in 2003.
Quality, Access and Affordability
Even when children with special needs do have access to appropriate public early care and education programs, these programs seldom provide full-day services or before- and after-school care. Many children with special needs lack access to appropriate, high-quality child care. In a 1995 U.S. General Accounting Office study, six of the seven states surveyed indicated a shortage of child care to meet the needs of children requiring special education services (Children's Defense Fund, 2001). The cost of adaptive equipment and extra staff support, and the shortage of specially trained teachers, makes it difficult for private early care and education providers to serve young children with special needs appropriately.
Family Support
To promote success for children with disabilities, it is important to support special education services for children before they enter the public school system as a kindergartner. Children with disabilities who are identified early and receive appropriate early intervention services and family support have a greater chance of meeting their social and educational potential than children who do not receive services until they enter school.

When it comes to identifying the season's of-the-moment trends, it's best to refer to the hub of all noteworthy styling choices: Fashion Week. That's how we discovered that the slouchy knit beanie was an essential item for fall. As seen on a slew of front-row fixtures, off-duty models, and stylish celebs, the nonchalant knit headgear is a quick and practical way to top off your look. The best part: they're so easy to wear and can be styled with just about every outfit imaginable, so keep reading to see how influencers like Rihanna and Dree Hemingway are currently wearing these cozy headpieces!
On the Runway
The knit beanie isn't a new accessory by any means, but there were a handful of designers, such as Lacoste's Felipe Oliveira Baptista, that really celebrated this accessory for fall. In keeping with his ski resort-inspired collection, Baptista topped off woolly pullovers and dresses (see the brand's Colorblock Turtleneck Dress ($400, 800.4.LACOSTE) for a similar style) with ribbed beanies, like the Metal Croc Alpaca Knit Cap ($50) shown above. The result: an outfit that can take you seamlessly from the mountain slopes to the city streets.
On the Streets
WHO: Rihanna
WHAT: Arriving at JFK Airport last month.
WEAR: Printed beanie with pom-pom.
WHY: A loose-fit beanie with a subtle print conceals plane hair while adding polish to an on-the-go look.
WHO: Dree Hemingway
WHAT: Front row at the Balmain S/S 13 show during Paris Fashion Week.
WEAR: Balmain beaded jacket; orange beanie.
WHY: Who says you can't incorporate this accessory into your eveningwear? In Hemingway's case, the casual, bright orange beanie lends a beaded evening jacket some understated cool.
WHO: Cara Delevingne
WHAT: Outside the Westin Hotel in Paris late last month.
WEAR: Cropped bomber jacket; black t-shirt; cuffed denim shorts; red beanie.
WHY: If anyone knows how to sport a beanie right now, it's model Cara Delevingne. The stylish Brit hammed it up for the camera in this red version more than a few times during various Fashion Weeks, but we were particularly fond of the way she styled it here with a cobalt bomber jacket, casual black tee, and denim shorts--the outcome is so Steve Zissou-at-Vogue, don't you think?
WHO: Ginta Lapina
WHAT: Between shows during New York Fashion Week earlier this year.
WEAR: Helmut Lang furry-trimmed leather jacket; Balmain jeans; vintage beanie; Yves Saint Laurent bag.
WHY: A leather jacket and lived-in jeans give an understated beanie a model-off-duty spin.
On You
Feeling a case of need-it-now? It's a good thing, because we've gathered an assortment of our favorite options for you to try. First, there are loads of traditional knit styles to choose from; some standouts include Hat Attack's Cuff Hat ($50), Topshop's Plain Rib Beanie ($20), and Plush's Barca Slouchy Hat ($50), which is available in a slew of bright colors including pink, blue, and yellow.
However, if you have your heart set on a pom-pom iteration, we've got plenty of those too. You can go for a luxe version, like Lanvin's Rabbit Pompom Hat ($745), or experiment with something a little more playful and bright, like Mulberry's Tiger-Intarsia Angora-Blend Beanie ($230) or 1717 Olive's Graphic Fair Isle Hat ($32).
Speaking of playful, Eugenia Kim's Felix Knit Beanie Hat with Cat Ears ($192) is quite adorable and will add a dose of personality to your bundled-up looks, while the mohawk detailing on Skaist Taylor's Fringed Mohair-Blend Hat ($190) is perfectly suited for those with punk-rock sensibilities.
And finally, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention the Elder Statesman's Cable Watcher ($396, 310.274.8800), which might just be the softest thing we've ever felt. Of course, it doesn't matter what style you ultimately choose, just know that you're not only doing your wardrobe a favor, but your head and ears will appreciate it too!--Jessica Baker

Can you stand on one foot for 15 seconds with your eyes closed?
Before you even think about answering, try it.
How did you do? Were you able to last 15 seconds without opening your eyes or holding on to anything? Were you surprised that it was more of a challenge than you thought? Here's the facts: After age 25, our sense of balance slowly begins to decline. Standing on one foot may seem fairly simple. At age 45 the ankles start to shake and you may find this a bit more of a challenge. When we reach our 60s, balance declines rapidly. Standing on one foot for 15 seconds with eyes closed without holding on is tough.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than one third of adults 65 and older fall each year in the United States and 20 to 30 percent of people who fall suffer moderate to severe injuries.
September 22 kicked off Fall Prevention Awareness Week. Why set aside a week to bring awareness to falling down? Because preventing a fall is much more effective than treating a fall; a public health problem that is largely preventable. A fall can change an individual's life instantly and although associated with getting older, a fall is not a normal part of aging.
Our bodies have an amazing and complex balance system that requires attention throughout life to keep it healthy and maintained. Most of us don't think about exercising our balance when we think about healthy aging. In fact, balance is the most overlooked element of fitness; overlooked until we have a problems.
So what's the easiest way to reclaim balance and prevent falls? For the most part, it's child's play. Think back to when you were a child. Do you remember challenging friends to see who could hop the longest on one foot? Or who could walk on the edge of the sidewalk the longest without falling off? Hopscotch, jumping rope, tossing balls…we didn't call it exercise or balance training as children, but that is exactly what we were doing. Those activities helped us develop our balance and stability as children, and similar activities can help keep the brain and muscles working together as we age.
A favorite part of my week is teaching the Better Balance & Movement Workshops here at Ballet Austin. The participants range in age from about 40 to 80. I love it! Together we challenge our brains and our muscles to do what we want them to do. And then we laugh when they don't always cooperate. I especially love to see people coming back each week sharing how they practiced at home, and the improvement they notice in their balance.
Thanks to partial underwriting from Scott & White Healthcare, Ballet Austin is on a mission to bring better balance to adults as part of its core value to encourage lifelong health and well-being. We desire to provide programming that will motivate and encourage people of all ages to be active! I once read this quote, "Movement requires balance. Sitting does not.
On September 13, 2012 the US Senate passed a resolution declaring September 22, 2012 as National Falls Prevention Awareness Day, a day set aside to promote and increase public awareness about how to prevent and reduce falls among older adults.
Keep moving!
There are many ways for people of all ages to stay active at Ballet Austin's Butler Community School. Interested in the Better Balance & Movement Workshop? A new session begins October 31.

grip with the LAME encoder
works like a charm
What do you guys recommend for mp3 encoders? Did some searching at tucows, got a few hits back, but nothing really jumped out at me. What do you guys use?
grip with the LAME encoder
works like a charm
oggenc.... You really need to try Grip + oggenc - Ogg Vorbis is so much nicer than MP3.
If you can't live without "the man'" music format, then by all means be a lamer !
I agree, lame is the best mp3 encoder, but mp3s as a whole are lame
Ogg Vorbis rules! oggenc forever!
(btw, just got the vorbis tools successfully installed on my LFS box, now I can listen to my tunes... ;D)
if you already have mp3s and want to convert them try:
a nice program that can convert mp3s into ogg format that lets you keep the id3 tags ..

MASSENA - A 22-year-old Bronx man agreed to waive his preliminary hearing Wednesday morning after the court agreed to reduce his bail.
Massena-based state police had charged Christopher A. Lopez, of 820 Colgate Ave., Apt. 12-6, Bronx, with two counts of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell and consuming alcohol in a vehicle on a public highway at 1:50 a.m. Tuesday following a traffic stop on Bishop Avenue.
Troopers said Lopez, a passenger in the vehicle, was found to be in possession of approximately 20 grams of cocaine and 48 individual bundles of heroin with a weight of 16.3 grams.
He was arraigned early Tuesday morning by Massena Village Justice Eric J. Gustafson and sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility with bail set at $20,000 cash or $40,000 bond.
The driver of the vehicle, Brande L. Snyder, 36, of Massena, was ticketed for failure to signal a turn from Woodlawn Avenue onto Willow Street.
Defense attorney Steven G. Ballan of the St. Lawrence County Public Defenders Office, said Lopez was prepared to waive his right to the hearing after learning Mr. Gustafson had committed to reducing his bail to $15,000 cash or $30,000 bond if the preliminary hearing was waived. Mr. Ballan told the court that Lopez indicated he expected someone would be able to post that bail to gain his release from the county jail.
St. Lawrence County Assistant District Attorney Andrew T. Botts was unsuccessful in his effort to convince the village justice to attach a condition to Lopezs release if he posted bail.
This defendant hails from New York City and was up here with two fairly large quantities of narcotics. I would ask the court to admonish the defendant that if he was to flee the jurisdiction and not return for his scheduled court appearances he would bear the costs of any proceedings necessary to get him back here, Mr. Botts said.
Mr. Gustafson reduced the bail to $15,000 cash and ordered the case be sent up to superior court for possible grand jury action.

Sharing Memories (Week 19 of 52): Mother's Day Memories
Today is Mother's Day and I have been thinking all week about what Mother's Day experiences I gave my mother when I was a teenager. I used to make her breakfast in bed - French Toast with lots of maple syrup. Sometimes I made fancy coupons that were good for 2 hours of ironing or a week of cleaning the bathroom. I don't remember what, if anything, my father did for her while he was alive, and he died when I was just barely 14.
When I became a mother, my husband always took me out for a nice supper and the children made me cards or little items at school. I still have most of them in my Genealogy Treasure Box. Once they left home and moved away they began a tradition of calling me on Mother's Day. Sometimes my eldest grandchildren send me a Mother's Day Card - that's very special to me.
My mother passed away two years ago but I have a daughter, two daughters-in-law and a former daughter-in-law, all of whom are amazing mothers to my grandchildren. I wish them the happiest of Mother's Days!
What are your traditions?

My grandmother always made a huge deal over Mother's Day and we all got dragged out to a restaurant. My mother likes a low key Mother's Day and so do I. So now we give each other cards and a small gift. That's our little tradition. My father always gets my mother flowers. (they just celebrated their 56th wedding anniversary) My kids are wonderful, they do little things too. I keep a lot of the cards they made as a kid as well.
Happy Mother's Day, and thanks for letting me share.
- The Grandmother Here said...
Mother's Day in my childhood was unique. My mother and her friends would go away for the weekend! It was prime time for bird-watchers to go to Point Pelee on Lake Erie for spring migration. That was the shortest route across the lake so therefore the birds' favorite flyway. As the exhausted little birds perched in trees, the bird watchers could see 100 different species in one weekend.

UK-based directing duo Si and Ad are just completing their longest short film to date. With a working title of Indoor, the film was shot on Kodak's new high-quality, low-price film stock.
Directors Si and Ad have been working together for just over a decade. They started out as designers for record label, Virgin but quickly moved into the music video arena. Signed to Academy Films, they have produced a number of commercials, music videos and short films. Their previous short film, Post-It Love, was aimed squarely at the commercials market but also with an eye on long-form filmmaking. It garnered lots of attention and acclaim on the festival circuit bringing them more commercials work and the opportunity to make a longer short film.
Known as Indoor, Si & Ad's latest short film is their first film with dialogue. The plot revolves around two kids and the start of their friendship. The boy is new in town and he befriends a girl who is confined to staying indoor (hence the title). Like their other films, it's quirky and magical, doesn't take itself too seriously but at the same time is quite touching.
It was shot in Jaywick on the Essex coast which, despite being one of the most impoverished areas of the UK is, according to Ad, " a beautiful place photographically, its skylines and beaches forming fabulous backdrops."
"We quickly made a decision," continued Si, "that we needed film to do both this project and this area justice. When we first started out, we shot our first videos on DV cams but as soon as we got our hands on film, we stuck with it the whole way. In fact, we are the only directors at Academy who haven't shot on a digital format yet. Digital just didn't have the range we required to handle the detail in the skies and the blacks."
Danish DP, Lasse Frank used the new KODAK 500T Color Negative Film Stock 5230/7230 for the shoot. This is a new product that uses some components of VISION2 technology and some from VISION3 to enable filmmakers to get the best balance between high quality and low price. It has been actively promoted by Kodak sales teams, using the slogan 'Something everyone can agree on' where producers and DPs are hesitant about using film stock for budgetary reasons. Further details of this film stock can be seen on the Kodak website.
Indoor was scheduled to be completed as InCamera went to press. It will then be heavily promoted on the festival circuit and Si and Ad are hoping it will give them their entry into long-form filmmaking.

What are these VINTAGE TRICOLORED CRYSTAL BEADS really called? Help!
What are these VINTAGE TRICOLORED CRYSTAL BEADS really called?
From my moms collection, they are perfect and very vintage. Are they glass? I think they are crystal- wow if they could be Swarovski! I want to sell these but have no idea how to list them correctly or what the ballpark value might be.
Are they Cones? Drops? I don't even know what the shapes are called!7 vintage multicolor crystals 4.jpg
Any comment or answer would be really appreciated! Thanks!

Providing they are real (not man-made), they are called "iris quartz" or sometimes "rainbow quartz". Often you'll see them listed as iris glass, if they were re-created (occurred in Bohemia in the late 19th century)..

Thank you! I can't imagine these colors happening naturally- I'd have to guess they are 'man made'. Thanks for the info!
