Hepatitis B FAQs for the Public
June 9, 2009
Table of Contents
What is hepatitis?
"Hepatitis" means inflammation of the liver. Toxins, certain drugs, some diseases, heavy alcohol use, and bacterial and viral infections can all cause hepatitis. Hepatitis is also the name of a family of viral infections that affect the liver>; the most common types are Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C.
What is the difference between Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C?
Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C are diseases caused by three different viruses. Although each can cause similar symptoms, they have different modes of transmission and can affect the liver differently. Hepatitis A appears only as an acute or newly occurring infection and does not become chronic. People with Hepatitis A usually improve without treatment. Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C can also begin as acute infections, but in some people, the virus remains in the body, resulting in chronic disease and long-term liver problems. There are vaccines to prevent Hepatitis A and B; however, there is not one for Hepatitis C. If a person has had one type of viral hepatitis in the past, it is still possible to get the other types.
What is Hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B is a contagious liver disease that ranges in severity from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a serious, lifelong illness. It results from infection with the Hepatitis B virus. Hepatitis B can be either "acute" or "chronic."
Acute Hepatitis B virus infection is a short-term illness that occurs within the first 6 months after someone is exposed to the Hepatitis B virus. Acute infection can -- but does not always -- lead to chronic infection.
Chronic Hepatitis B virus infection is a long-term illness that occurs when the Hepatitis B virus remains in a person's body.
How common is acute Hepatitis B in the United States?
In 2007, there were an estimated 43,000 new Hepatitis B virus infections in the United States. However, the official number of reported Hepatitis B cases is much lower. Many people don't know they are infected or may not have symptoms and therefore never seek the attention of medical or public health officials.
Has the number of people in the United States with acute Hepatitis B been decreasing?
Yes, rates of acute Hepatitis B in the United States have declined by approximately 82% since 1990. At that time, routine Hepatitis B vaccination of children was implemented and has dramatically decreased the rates of the disease in the United States, particularly among children.
How common is chronic Hepatitis B in the United States?
In the United States, an estimated 800,000 to 1.4 million persons have chronic Hepatitis B virus infection.
How common is chronic Hepatitis B outside the United States?
Globally, chronic Hepatitis B affects approximately 350 million people and contributes to an estimated 620,000 deaths worldwide each year.
Transmission / Exposure
How likely is it that acute Hepatitis B will become chronic?
The likelihood depends upon the age at which someone becomes infected. The younger a person is when infected with Hepatitis B virus, the greater his or her chance of developing chronic Hepatitis B. Approximately 90% of infected infants will develop chronic infection. The risk goes down as a child gets older. Approximately 25%50% of children infected between the ages of 1 and 5 years will develop chronic hepatitis. The risk drops to 6%10% when a person is infected over 5 years of age. Worldwide, most people with chronic Hepatitis B were infected at birth or during early childhood.
How is Hepatitis B spread?
Hepatitis B is spread when blood, semen, or other body fluid infected with the Hepatitis B virus enters the body of a person who is not infected. People can become infected with the virus during activities such as:
Can a person spread Hepatitis B and not know it?
Yes. Many people with chronic Hepatitis B virus infection do not know they are infected since they do not feel or look sick. However, they still can spread the virus to others and are at risk of serious health problems themselves.
Can Hepatitis B be spread through sex?
Yes. Among adults in the United States, Hepatitis B is most commonly spread through sexual contact and accounts for nearly two-thirds of acute Hepatitis B cases. In fact, Hepatitis B is 50100 times more infectious than HIV and can be passed through the exchange of body fluids, such as semen, vaginal fluids, and blood.
Can Hepatitis B be spread through food?
Unlike Hepatitis A, it is not spread routinely through food or water. However, there have been instances in which Hepatitis B has been spread to babies when they have received food pre-chewed by an infected person.
What are ways Hepatitis B is not spread?
Hepatitis B virus is not spread by sharing eating utensils, breastfeeding, hugging, kissing, holding hands, coughing, or sneezing.
Who is at risk for Hepatitis B?
Although anyone can get Hepatitis B, some people are at greater risk, such as those who:
If I think I have been exposed to the Hepatitis B virus, what should I do?
If you are concerned that you might have been exposed to the Hepatitis B virus, call your health professional or your health department. If a person who has been exposed to Hepatitis B virus gets the Hepatitis B vaccine and/or a shot called "HBIG" (Hepatitis B immune globulin) within 24 hours, Hepatitis B infection may be prevented.
How long does the Hepatitis B virus survive outside the body?
Hepatitis B virus can survive outside the body at least 7 days. During that time, the virus can still cause infection if it enters the body of a person who is not infected.
How should blood spills be cleaned from surfaces to make sure that Hepatitis B virus is gone?
All blood spills -- including those that have already dried -- should be cleaned and disinfected with a mixture of bleach and water (one part household bleach to 10 parts water). Gloves should always be used when cleaning up any blood spills. Even dried blood can present a risk to others.
If I had Hepatitis B in the past, can I get it again?
No, once you recover from Hepatitis B, you develop antibodies that protect you from the virus for life. An antibody is a substance found in the blood that the body produces in response to a virus. Antibodies protect the body from disease by attaching to the virus and destroying it. However, some people, especially those infected during early childhood, remain infected for life because they never clear the virus from their bodies.
Can I donate blood, organs, or semen if I have Hepatitis B?
No, if you have ever tested positive for the Hepatitis B virus, experts recommend that you not donate blood, organs, or semen because this can put the recipient at great risk for getting hepatitis.
Does acute Hepatitis B cause symptoms?
Sometimes. Although a majority of adults develop symptoms from acute Hepatitis B virus infection, many young children do not. Adults and children over the age of 5 years are more likely to have symptoms. Seventy percent of adults will develop symptoms from the infection.
What are the symptoms of acute Hepatitis B?
Symptoms of acute Hepatitis B, if they appear, can include:
How soon after exposure to Hepatitis B will symptoms appear?
On average, symptoms appear 90 days (or 3 months) after exposure, but they can appear any time between 6 weeks and 6 months after exposure.
How long do acute Hepatitis B symptoms last?
Symptoms usually last a few weeks, but some people can be ill for as long as 6 months.
Can a person spread Hepatitis B without having symptoms?
Yes. Many people with Hepatitis B have no symptoms, but these people can still spread the virus.
What are the symptoms of chronic Hepatitis B?
Some people have ongoing symptoms similar to acute Hepatitis B, but most individuals with chronic Hepatitis B remain symptom free for as long as 20 or 30 years. About 15%25% of people with chronic Hepatitis B develop serious liver conditions, such as cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) or liver cancer. Even as the liver becomes diseased, some people still do not have symptoms, although certain blood tests for liver function might begin to show some abnormalities.
How will I know if I have Hepatitis B?
Talk to your health professional. Since many people with Hepatitis B do not have symptoms, doctors diagnose the disease by one or more blood tests. These tests look for the presence of antibodies or antigens and can help determine whether you:
How serious is chronic Hepatitis B?
Chronic Hepatitis B is a serious disease that can result in long-term health problems, including liver damage, liver failure, liver cancer, or even death. Approximately 2,0004,000 people die every year from Hepatitis B-related liver disease.
What are antigens and antibodies?
An antigen is a substance on the surface of a virus that causes a person's immune system to recognize and respond to it. When the body is exposed to an antigen, the body views it as foreign material and takes steps to neutralize the antigen by producing antibodies. An antibody is a substance found in the blood that the body produces in response to a virus. Antibodies protect the body from disease by attaching to the virus and destroying it.
What are the common blood tests available to diagnose Hepatitis B?
There are many different blood tests available to diagnose Hepatitis B. They can be ordered as an individual test or as a series of tests. Ask your health professional to explain what he or she hopes to learn from the tests and when you will get the results. Below are some of the common tests and their meanings. But remember: only your doctor can interpret your individual test results.
How is acute Hepatitis B treated?
There is no medication available to treat acute Hepatitis B. During this short-term infection, doctors usually recommend rest, adequate nutrition, and fluids, although some people may need to be hospitalized.
How is chronic Hepatitis B treated?
It depends. People with chronic Hepatitis B virus infection should seek the care or consultation of a doctor with experience treating Hepatitis B. This can include some internists or family medicine practitioners, as well as specialists such as infectious disease physicians, gastroenterologists, or hepatologists (liver specialists). People with chronic Hepatitis B should be monitored regularly for signs of liver disease and evaluated for possible treatment. Several medications have been approved for Hepatitis B treatment, and new drugs are in development. However, not every person with chronic Hepatitis B needs to be on medication, and the drugs may cause side effects in some patients.
What can people with chronic Hepatitis B do to take care of their liver?
People with chronic Hepatitis B should be monitored regularly by a doctor experienced in caring for people with Hepatitis B. They should avoid alcohol because it can cause additional liver damage. They also should check with a health professional before taking any prescription pills, supplements, or over-the-counter medications, as these can potentially damage the liver.
Prevention / Vaccination
Can Hepatitis B be prevented?
Yes. The best way to prevent Hepatitis B is by getting the Hepatitis B vaccine. The Hepatitis B vaccine is safe and effective and is usually given as 3-4 shots over a 6-month period.
What is the Hepatitis B vaccine series?
The Hepatitis B vaccine series is a sequence of shots that stimulate a person's natural immune system to protect against HBV. After the vaccine is given, the body makes antibodies that protect a person against the virus. An antibody is a substance found in the blood that is produced in response to a virus invading the body. These antibodies are then stored in the body and will fight off the infection if a person is exposed to the Hepatitis B virus in the future.
Who should get vaccinated against Hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B vaccination is recommended for:
In order to reach individuals at risk for Hepatitis B, vaccination is also recommended for anyone in or seeking treatment from the following:
When should a person get the Hepatitis B vaccine series?
Children and Adolescents
For more information about Hepatitis B and other vaccines, see www.cdc.gov/vaccines/recs/schedules/default.htm.
Is the Hepatitis B vaccine recommended before international travel?
The risk for Hepatitis B virus infection in international travelers is generally low, although people traveling to certain countries are at risk. Travelers to regions with moderate or high rates of Hepatitis B should get the Hepatitis B vaccine.
How is the Hepatitis B vaccine series given?
The Hepatitis B vaccine is usually given as a series of 3 or 4 shots over a 6-month period.
Is the Hepatitis B vaccine series effective?
Yes, the Hepatitis B vaccine is very effective at preventing Hepatitis B virus infection. After receiving all three doses, Hepatitis B vaccine provides greater than 90% protection to infants, children, and adults immunized before being exposed to the virus.
Is the Hepatitis B vaccine safe?
Yes, the Hepatitis B vaccine is safe. Soreness at the injection site is the most common side effect reported. As with any medicine, there are very small risks that a serious problem could occur after getting the vaccine. However, the potential risks associated with Hepatitis B are much greater than the risks the vaccine poses. Since the vaccine became available in 1982, more than 100 million people have received Hepatitis B vaccine in the United States and no serious side effects have been reported.
Is it harmful to have an extra dose of Hepatitis B vaccine or to repeat the entire Hepatitis B vaccine series?
No, getting extra doses of Hepatitis B vaccine is not harmful.
What should be done if Hepatitis B vaccine series was not completed?
Talk to your health professional to resume the vaccine series as soon as possible. The series does not need to be restarted.
Who should not receive the Hepatitis B vaccine?
The Hepatitis B vaccine is not recommended for people who have had serious allergic reactions to a prior dose of Hepatitis B vaccine or to any part of the vaccine. Also, it not recommended for anyone who is allergic to yeast because yeast is used when making the vaccine. Tell your doctor if you have any severe allergies.
Are booster doses of Hepatitis B vaccine necessary?
It depends. A "booster" dose of Hepatitis B vaccine is a dose that increases or extends the effectiveness of the vaccine. Booster doses are recommended only for hemodialysis patients and can be considered for other people with a weakened immune system. Booster doses are not recommended for persons with normal immune status who have been fully vaccinated.
Is there a vaccine that will protect me from both Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B?
Yes, there is a combination vaccine that protects people from both Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B. The combined Hepatitis A and B vaccine is usually given as three separate doses over a 6-month period.
Can I get the Hepatitis B vaccine at the same time as other vaccines?
Yes. Getting two different vaccines at the same time has not been shown to be harmful.
Where can I get the Hepatitis B vaccine?
Talk to your doctor or health professional or call your health department. Some clinics offer free or low-cost vaccines.
What is Hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG)?
Hepatitis B immune globulin is a substance made from human blood samples that contains antibodies against the Hepatitis B virus. It is given as a shot and can provide short-term protection (approximately 3 months) against Hepatitis B.
Pregnancy and Hepatitis B
Are pregnant women tested for Hepatitis B?
Yes. When a pregnant woman comes in for prenatal care, she will be given a series of routine blood tests, including one that checks for the presence of Hepatitis B virus infection. This test is important because women infected with this virus can pass Hepatitis B to their babies during birth. But this can be prevented by giving the infant HBIG and the first Hepatitis B vaccine at birth, and then completing the series.
What if a pregnant woman has Hepatitis B?
If a pregnant woman has Hepatitis B, she can pass the infection to her baby during birth. But this can be prevented through a series of vaccinations and HBIG for her baby beginning at birth. Without vaccination, babies born to women with Hepatitis B virus infection can develop chronic infection, which can lead to serious health problems.
How does a baby get Hepatitis B?
A baby can get Hepatitis B from an infected mother during childbirth.
Can a baby be protected from getting Hepatitis B from his or her mother during birth?
Yes, almost all cases of Hepatitis B can be prevented if a baby born to an infected woman receives the necessary shots at the recommended times The infant should receive a shot called Hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) and the first dose of Hepatitis B vaccine within 12 hours of birth. Two or 3 additional shots of vaccine are needed over the next 115 months to help prevent Hepatitis B. The timing and total number of shots will be influenced by several factors, including the type of vaccine and the baby's age and weight. In addition, experts recommend that the baby be tested after completion of the vaccine series to make sure he or she is protected from the disease. To best protect your baby, follow the advice of his or her doctor.
What happens if a baby gets Hepatitis B?
Most newborns who become infected with Hepatitis B virus do not have symptoms, but they have a 90% chance of developing chronic Hepatitis B. This can eventually lead to serious health problems, including liver damage, liver cancer, and even death.
Do babies need the Hepatitis B vaccine even if a pregnant woman does not have Hepatitis B?
Yes. The Hepatitis B vaccine is recommended for all infants. CDC recommends that the infant get the first shot before leaving the hospital.
Why is the Hepatitis B vaccine recommended for all babies?
Hepatitis B vaccine is recommended for all babies so that they will be protected from a serious but preventable disease. Babies and young children are at much greater risk for developing a chronic infection if infected, but the vaccine can prevent this.

BGA: Salary Cap Update 10.0
When I last did a salary cap update, the Jets stood at approximately $7.7m under the cap and I gave you some projections for the Jets rookie deals. Today, just a quick update on the rookie situation and how the cap situation has moved given some recent moves.
Rookie Update
As reported on TJB the other day, Stephen Hill signed a $5m deal over four years and $2.8m guaranteed, which is right in line with our projection. Sixth round pick Josh Bush signed too and Jason's site has the details. As we predicted, he got $2.2m over four years with a signing bonus of about $100K – with a fourth year escalator that potentially raises the contract value to about $3m. Quinton Coples could get his deal soon, now that Bruce Irvin (selected one place ahead of him) has signed with Seattle. We were projecting a deal of around $9m for Coples with $4.8m as a signing bonus and Irvin got $9.3m with a $5m bonus, so that prediction should be accurate too.
Other Transactions
When the Jets released Ropati Pitoitua, this gave rise to a net cap saving of approximately $700K. Kicker Josh Brown's deal will have a small cap effect too. Brian Costello got details of his base salary of $825,000 but I anticipate he'd also have got the maximum signing ($50K) and workout bonuses ($15K) to still qualify that deal for a vested veterans exemption. So overall, he'll get $890,000 and the cap hit will be limited to $605,000. Therefore, there's an overall net cap effect of approximately $140K. Obviously it's unlikely that both Brown and Nick Folk make the roster, so there's a guaranteed $140K cap saving in respect of one of them coming later on anyway.
Cutting Logan Payne, Kris O'Dowd and Trevor Canfield has no cap effect and signing Freddy Kotolo, Matt Simms and Royce Pollard will also have no cap effect, other than maybe a small (couple of thousand) in respect of bonus money.
Following these moves, the Jets should have approximately $8.3m of cap room. Since the rookie deals all seem to be falling in line with our projections, that should mean that the net cap cost of signing the rookies should still only be about $1.34m if they all make the team. Ultimately, that leaves the Jets with approximately $7m left over to sign veterans and to give themselves a buffer for injuries/waiver claims or contract extensions. Any balance remaining can of course be carried over to 2013.

Anyone who joined your server would have to have bought the game first ('illegally' obtained copies aside).
With that said, you might want to take a look at the progression (or regression) of the terms of subscription over the course of the last few years, before making a judgement call.

besides anyone can connect to server if you spawn standard therefor if you choose to spawn prem.. then the option remaining is the above. try pickup channels etc for games to start faster..
Wow, what a great product. I know people want to pay for that for sure!
Have fun with that.
pickup channels work better thou tbh at least for tdm games in EU and CTF to a fair degree..
The player base is drying up. Pickups are still possible in NA, but only on East Coast US servers. Casual gaming with people at similar skill level has pretty much disappeared unless you get lucky or are willing to spend inordinate amounts of time waiting.
This is a downward spiral no amount of spin can make this look good. (Comment not directed at you but certain other people on the server).
Also, has anyone noticed that the pro-spawned servers seem to be more laggy than id's official servers?

And £40 per year for something that doesn't even come close to the functionality of Xbox live? You'd have thought they would have graced us with the privelege that OP suggests. I understood what I signed up for when getting pro, I read the terms, I mainly wanted to support this game and throw some money in to, hopefully, help ID grow the game. When we're paying this much do you really need to limit so many other free players.
I know it's idealistic but, give more priveleges and get a larger sustainable playerbase then lower subscription fees and profit. We really want this game to live a fuller life.
You're like the main beneficiary of your dying grandad, not giving him the full care and attention he needs to live the rest of his life to the fullest because you're more concerned about that will.

The vote is largely seen as a test run for Chancellor Angela Merkel, her rivals and would-be heirs, eight months before nationwide polls. German Chancellor Angela Merkel's party was ahead after the first state poll in a general election year, exit polls indicated, but it was unclear whether its coalition would cling to power.

Although T-Mobile was recently acquired by AT&T, still many fans were anticipating the release of the T-Mobile LG G2x that was first seen during the CTIA Wireless 2011. The device will run the Android 2.2 operating system and has amazing specs that make the small device extremely quick. The device will feature a dual core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor that will be more than enough to power the operating system and then some. The applications during the hands on seemed as if they opened up and then closed seemingly instantly. The 4G network will also help to speed up the browsing of websites, creating an all-around very quick machine.
The G2X phone feels great in the end, and has the specs that match some of the top devices int eh space that are being released over the course of the next few months. One of the biggest complaints is that the screen seems to really hold fingerprints quite well. The device will also feature an 8 megapixel camera, which is above the curve in terms of phones with these devices.
Although T-Mobile has seemingly reached its end and will become a part of the AT&T network at some point in all likelihood, that does not mean that the G2x will not be one of hte most impressive phones released this year - that much is already clear from the hands on that was granted. The device will easily be one of the fastest available, the the company has managed to keep the battery life manageable.
Watch for the company to continue to expand the number of top notch smart devices that they offer moving forward. This is one of a few top tier smart devices that have been rumored to be coming to T-Mobile prior to the merger. It is not clear if these devices will be absolved into the AT&T brand name, or if the company will allow T-Mobile to continue to operate under its own name for the time being. From the hands on it is clear that the G2x will be one of the top flight smart devices in the world moving forward.
PureMobile carrier wide range of Bluetooh headset and unlocked LG cell phone such as LG C900 Optimus unlocked, LG GM310G, etc..

CANTON — The St. Lawrence County Highway Department is going green to repair its culverts and bridges.
"We're trying to make things last longer," Superintendent Toby W. Bogart said.
The county has tested recycled-plastic construction material called Struxure made by Axion International Holdings, New Providence, N.J., on a box culvert as an alternative to stay-in-place concrete forms.
The product is made from type 2 plastics that can overcrowd landfills.
"It's basically recycled soda bottles," Mr. Bogart said. "It's structural grade, so it's self-supporting."
The Highway Department liked the material's performance and has ordered more.
"We decided to go a little bigger," Mr. Bogart said. "We're going to be using it on a bridge on the Dean Road in the town of Clare."
The order for 6-by-24-inch tongue and groove boards will be used to repair and restore the bridge decking.
That project will remove 30,000 pounds of plastic from the landfill stream, according to a company release.
Mr. Bogart estimated the repair will cost the county two-thirds of what it would have if traditional materials were used.
The county also plans to use Axion products on two more bridge projects in the future.
"It's a good investment for us because Struxure is impervious to water and salt, so it doesn't go through the wear and tear that traditional materials do over time," Mr. Bogart said.
"That means, once it's in, there will be significantly less maintenance as compared with traditional construction materials. The ease and simplicity of working with the material also saves time during construction, allowing for shorter road closures," he said.
Axion also makes Ecotrax composite rail products.

Break out the rakes, pile up the dead tree branches, uproot the dead bushes and trim the yards. That's what the Sunnyside City Council is asking residents to do throughout the month of May.
The city council is giving Sunnyside residents ample time to help clean up their properties in accordance with the city's cleanup ordinance during the month. Residents will be given through the end of the month to cleanup and maintain their properties before the city begins handing out warnings and citations beginning in June.
When looking back at how the cleanup ordinance was enforced last year, council members decided to make a few changes, one of which included pushing back the time before warnings would be handed out. Councilman Tony Riffle said the city wanted to give residents more time to cleanup their yards this year. Instead of making people rush to get their properties in compliance. The council felt that a one month period of time would be the best solution.
When reviewing how the ordinance worked last year, council members noted that the ordinance helped make the city look better and was something that the community could be proud of.
So to get more involved this year the council is also lending a helping hand in the cleanup process. Riffle said that Sunnyside residents can call City Hall and request that the city dump truck be placed near their home so big materials including tree branches and any other things that could be considered garbage can be disposed of properly.
"By doing this we can help residents clean up their properties and get rid of everything they need to now," Riffle said before the warnings and citations are handed out by the city.
While homeowners throughout the city will be dealing with different situations such as trimming trees or cutting down large amounts of weeds, there is at least one pest that has become a part of the equation. The purple sprouting weed, known as Morning Glory, can be seen around much of the vegetation along the roadsides in Sunnyside and throughout Carbon County. It is a tough type of weed that can be hard to permanently remove from a yard, requiring a lot of weed killer treatment and constant trimming. It can take a year or two before all of the Morning Glory weeds are killed, according to lawn care magazines and experts.
Despite the cleanup work ahead for residents in the city, Riffle said many have been doing very well in taking care of their yards. Since the cleanup ordinance has been in effect, citations have been declining over the past few years.
"A few years ago people were getting a lot of citations for not cleaning up, but in recent years residents have been doing a much better job in following the ordinance," Riffle said.
Starting in June, the city will begin monitoring the area to see if residents are in compliance with the ordinance. Those not in compliance would be issued a warning by the city giving them a period of time to clean up. If a resident is not in compliance at the end of the warning period, a citation would then be issued.
With the weather bringing in more rain than usual in the area, Riffle said he is confident that residents will take care of any weed problems through the rest of the spring and into the summer.
Residents are allowed to have the dump truck placed near their home for free one time. After the one free load allowed by the city, a $40 charge would be applied for any additional load.

Three well-known dairy farmers have put their money in the same pot to buy 2,600 acres of prime farmland for $4 million from Joseph P. Spezzano Jr. of Branford, Conn.
Ronald C. Robbins, owner of Robbins Family Grain in Sackets Harbor; Michael W. Hill, owner of Hillcrest Farms in Ellisburg, and John Barney, owner of Butterville Farms in Smithville, closed on the deal Tuesday. A total of 26 tax parcels were bought from Mr. Spezzano, who had owned the land for 15 years and experienced challenges leasing it to local farmers while he lived in Connecticut.
A large percentage of it is prime farmland located right in the center of Jefferson County, and its all contiguous to our current farming operations, said Mr. Robbins, adding the three co-owners have no immediate plans to start operations. The sole purpose was to secure and have local control over this property in the future.
Mr. Spezzano had difficulty making loan payments on the property, Mr. Robbins said, and creditors were on the verge of foreclosing on the land.
He never farmed up here, and he was way too far away for it to work out, he said.
Mr. Robbins said before Mr. Spezzano purchased the property, it had a history of financial difficulty since the 1980s, when it was under the ownership of the Mackintosh family on the west side and the Zahn family on the east.

Old school wheel lock on a bike in my backyard.

Old school wheel lock on a bike in my backyard.
6 comments:
- c said...
Hey, I've got an old Batavus wheel lock just like that. The buttons have three positions: "neutral," "in," and "out." I can't use it on my bike, unfortunately, because it wants to be mounted where the rack connects to the seat stays, and I'm not giving up my rack!
Of course, even if it did work I wouldn't trust it -- how hard is it to lift up on the saddle so that the rear tire is off the ground and just walk away, rolling the bike along with you like it has a flat or other mechanical problem? Not hard at all. I suppose it all depends on the level of theft in your area, though.

Thanks for your comment.
There is a simple reason for every bike in Denmark being equipped with wheel locks.
Bike theft is a problem. (17,000 bikes a year in Copenhagen alone)
Insurance companies, many years ago, decided that needed some sort of standard lock on all bikes in order to protect their interests. Otherwise people could just say, "it was locked!"
Fair enough, really. If all bikes must have wheellocks and newer bikes have numbered locks and keys, it's easier for them to administer payouts.
It is easy to just lift up the back wheel and roll a bike away. But to be honest, it is rare. The bikes that get nicked are unlocked bikes and really expensive bikes.

I had one of those locks for years and now its broken. I've been trying to find since a few months with no succes. I think they were great just because you d'^dn't have to use the key. Of course, that was ok for short frequent stops and when the bike was to sty overnight outside I would use a U lock. Does anyone know if I could find one of those old locks again ? email@example.com

Like Claude I am desperately searching for a combination wheel-lock like this, because we have three children who lose either the lock, or the key, or both$&§$§%$"%$%&§**'.
THIS would be the SOLUTION! I heard somethin about a danish company "CEDO" which supplied something similar - but it seems like this company has dissappeared.
I would be really grateful if anybody could help me. Please mail to:

The combo of wheel lock and integrated frame cable lock on my Batavus Personal Bike is just genius. Any tree, any post, another bike...all are immediately lockable-to. And it's impossible to loose or forget the lock or cable, 'cos it's built in ;-)

An enzyme called ACE2 may help doctors develop an alternative therapy for patients suffering from hypertension, a new study has found.
According to researchers at the Northwestern University School of Medicine, ACE2 can break down angiotensin II, a protein that causes blood vessels to constrict and may raise blood pressure to dangerous levels.
Currently there are traditional therapies that can block the formation of angiotensin II, but ACE2 is novel because it can break down hazardous protein that is already formed in blood vessels.
"This therapeutic approach can be superior to existing therapies that block the activity of the renin-angiotensin system and therefore provide a more complete and effective suppression of this system to treat not just hypertension but many other medical conditions where angiotensin II overactivity is undesirable," said lead researcher Daniel Batlle.
The Mayo Clinic reports that diet and exercise are the best ways to naturally lower blood pressure. There are also several supplements that may be used to help treat hypertension including calcium, cod liver oil, omega-3 fatty acids and garlic.
Relaxation techniques such as yoga or deep breathing have been known to relieve stress and temporarily lower blood pressure.

Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
This trial demonstrated a significant increase in LC and DFS at 5 years in patients treated with cisplatin/5-FU chemotherapy concurrent with RT versus patients treated with RT alone following surgical resection. Additionally, statistically significant differences regarding OS and FFDM at 5 years were demonstrated on multivariate analysis, again favoring the RCT arm. It is puzzling, however, that the authors would report estimated 5-year data when the median follow-up of the study was only 36 months. For this reason, these results should be considered exceedingly preliminary, and little value should be placed in them at this time. Furthermore, caution should also be used when considering the results yielded by multivariate analysis, as neither the abstract nor presenter provided details on information regarding potential patient and treatment factors utilized in the analysis. This study also suggests somewhat different guidelines for defining high-risk disease, making comparisons with earlier similar trials more difficult.
When all trials are considered together, RCT has been shown to improve locoregional control, to have no impact on distant metastases, and to yield spotty and inconsistent results across trials with respect to OS. Ultimately, a consensus definition of high-risk disease in head & neck cancer is needed. This will aid in allowing more applicable comparisons between trials and serve to lessen confusion regarding treatment indications.

"Hola amigos,
"Two and a Half Men"
star Jon Cryer revealed that when Ashton Kutcher was signed as his co-star, he and Kutcher met to test their chemistry. Why? Well, when Ashton was seven years old, Jon was dating (f**king) his future wife. From the outside looking in, that's funny and creepy... but mostly funny, but also, it makes them
"Eskimo brothers"
. Anyway, they figured it out... although Kutcher and Demi separated during his time on the show. Aw well.
Current girlfriend used to date Joba Chamberlain... a pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. He's ugly as sin...
all apologies to sin
He and his sister's boyfriend both slept with the same woman.
Not sure how that came up or went down, exactly.
Hooked up with a girl at a party. Came downstairs and three dudes yelled "ESKIMO BROTHER!"
His cousin made 'first contact' with his girlfriend
With a former professional hockey player
Was having relations (such a stupid term for it) with his friend's sister. Found at that he was Eskimo brothers with James Franco, who would fly her to various movie sets for sex
He's Eskimo brothers with Thomas Lennon, a.k.a. Lt. Dangle on "Reno 911".
Met a guy who was his Eskimo brother via two different women. We asked him if he'd slept with anyone his Eskimo brother hadn't and he admitted that he just stopped asking.
Slept with the mother of his brother's fiancé Jiggity.
Chester Bennington (formerly of Linkin Park) and Robert DeLeo of Stone Temple pilots dropped by the studio today as they kick off their North American tour tonight in Seattle. And what better way to get them amped up than to talk to us? We've interviewed them both before, but separately. Chester was a part of a different project (not Linkin Park) and Robert was in Army of Anyone.
Here's a link
(probably) to the interview.
For the first time in 10 years, the Men's Room has added a member of the show. He goes my the name Mike Hawk (say it three- times- fast) and he works mostly in the background, doing a lot of our dirty work. Anyway, last Friday and this past Monday, Thee Ted Smith took some time off and Mike Hawk filled in in the phone-screening room and for 'Ted vs The FCC' duties. He lost, by the way. Ah, so people have been asking who Mike Hawk is, and we addressed that today on the air. That being said, if you have any questions about Mike Hawk, send us an email with subject, 'questions about Mike Hawk'.
On that note, I'm outta here, bitches.
Until tomorrow, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Hola amigos,
We do a little segment everyday on this show called "Go Fund Yourself" where we try to spread the word for people who find themselves in an unfortunate situation and are reaching out for support. Case- in- point, on Monday, March 30, we shared the story of a baby (Aria) being born four months premature because her parents were in a car accident. A 'friend' of theirs (aptly named Casey
) stole the money from their
go fund me
account... money that was originally raised to help with medical bills... before becoming a fund for baby Aria's funeral.
It's a messed up story
, but it inspired today's question:
Someone backed into his car while it was parked at school and didn't leave a note.
That's an annoying thing, but ask yourself honestly if
would have left a note if you knew you could get away with it. Would you keep a duffle bag full of cash if you found it? Would you turn it in? If you're curious, you bet your sweet ASS I'm keeping the cash!
Stayed at a friend's place for a week while he was in between places. Woke up early every morning to clean the cat's litter box. On the last day, he took a sh*t IN the litter box. It was a prank, you see. He'd convinced his friend that the cat wasn't pooping, so on that last day, his friend thought the giant turd was the cat's. And like any good friend, he captured it on video.
I applaud that.
Trained a new guy at work to replace another co-worker. Turns out he trained his own replacement.
You were done dirty, my man. No doubt about it.
His longtime friend tried to get with his ex wife. They're not friends anymore.
Gotta wonder how many times his 'friend' waxed the carrot to his wife while they were married.
Helped a woman pay for gas at a gas station. Felt good about himself until he returned to his car and realized that the woman had stolen the contents of his glove box.
Karma owes you a little something. OR you owed karma.
His mother stole his tax return when he was 18. She "helped" him do them and then kept the return... which she'd wired to her account.
Reminds me, Mother's Day is coming up.
Her husband cheated on her with four different women. All four women were related in some way to his own best friend, including his best friend's two mistresses, daughter's friend and wife.
I don't even know where to begin.
Jolene joins us every Tuesday for Sit and Spin... and because she can't keep her hands off of us. We're that sexy.
Today we reviewed the top 10 shows coming to town that AREN'T Pain in the Grass. And by the 'top' shows, well, we didn't really mean that either. Here's a link to the list:
The other thing Sit and Spin accomplished today was the unexpected arrival of
Refer Man
. If you heard him, you understand.
My balls itch.
Until tomorrow, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!

To the delight of and at the request of no one on this Earth, Randy Quaid and his equally insane wife Evi, recorded and released a sex tape. The inherent flaw in their sex video is that it features THEM. And worse, they do a little bit of
for your viewing (dis)pleasure, including a particularly disturbing scene where Randy wraps a belt around his wife's neck while she pleasures herself with a vibrator... while he explains that this is how David Carradine died. If that's not distracting enough (and it's not) it should be noted that their dog is in the room and is barking the ENTIRE time. It's frankly, the worse sex tape ever and should NOT be seen. I'm not even offering a link to it because I don't hate you. The video did inspire today's question: WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAID, 'I DID
I think I agreed with each and every answer given. Here are a few examples:
His drunk buddy dropped his pants at a party to show everyone the golf ball- sized cyst on his back just above his butt crack. Cysts, by the way, are NEVER awesome to see
Big woman at Wal- Mart wearing her sweatpants inside- out... there was a poop stain on the butt
Discovered mom's "big purple dildo" on her bed. Parents, PLEASE put your sex toys away. I do!
Walked in on his female roommate masturbating to 'Sons of Anarchy'... on HIS leather chair
The 'movie' "2 Girls, One Cup"
Wandered into the locker room at the gym and the first thing he saw was an old man's testicles
Walked into the COMPANY bathroom to discover his co-worker FULLY naked, washing his junk in the sink. If that wasn't bad enough, he also had a silver c*ck ring
A woman got on the bus TODAY with a FRESH poop stain on the back of her skirt. Everyone on the bus opened their windows because the poop was THAT fresh
Caught her cousin pooping in the front yard. He was gonna leave it, but she made him dig a hole and dispose of it. WTF?!?
Works at a mental hospital and walked in on a guy masturbating in the common area... to the movie '
... I've seen the movie about 1000 times and there is NOTHING that should lead one to masturbate. Nothing... not a single thing
Yea, it was that kind of day... full of visuals that, in retrospect, aren't that awesome to entertain. Today's question was one that reminds us here on the show to remember that sometimes you'll regret what you ask. Sure, we laughed a lot, but that was always followed with a gag reflex that threatened to call our guts out of our mouths. OK, now that I'm thoroughly disgusted, it's time to say adios... adios.
Until next time, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Certainly you've heard by now that Harrison Ford crash- landed his plane on a golf course after suffering engine failure. He suffered a fractured pelvis, a broken ankle and cuts to his forehead, but he's expected to make a full recovery. Well, his wife, Calista Flockhart, has, according to 'sources', forbidden him from flying anymore. Again, it was
trouble, not anything he did, but when you're dealing with a significant other, logic, rationale, and common sense are usually the
things to come into play. So now, like so many of us before him, Harrison will either give up his years- long hobby to keep his wife quiet OR he'll continue to enjoy his hobby and have to put up with the nagging. It's how it goes. So with that in mind, we wanted to know: WHAT DID YOU HAVE TO STOP DOING OR WHAT DID YOU HAVE TO PUT UP WITH TO MAKE A RELATIONSHIP WORK?
Here are some of the answers to that question:
After 2 years of dating, she stopped shaving her arms... not her arm
mind you, just her arms. I don't know that I've dated anyone who has NEEDED to shave their arms. The image in my head is horrible. How hairy were this woman's arms?!?
Wanted him to stop smoking weed and cigarettes and to stop driving fast cars. In return, she gave up nothing. Sounds about right
Can't get his fiancé into WWE... not sure how it's a problem but he really wants her to enjoy it
Sex... woman called in and she would like to have sex twice a day, everyday. As much as we'd all like to think we could hang, we probably couldn't, HOWEVER, we could probably (happily) give it once a day at least. The guy she's with, according to her, has sex with her once a week at BEST... and that's if she "begs"
He's given up online porn to "save" his marriage. It's f**king porn, man. She shouldn't be THAT insecure. There's a reason that porn is and continues to be the biggest money making entertainment industry
I have a hard time believing this, but he says he had to give up masturbating. Yea, f**k that. Masturbation is your right, bitches! You want someone to stop masturbating, f**k them as often as they self satisfy. Otherwise, what's the problem? Clearly, I'm a fan of porn and masturbation! I really am.
Jolene joined us today and shared with us what the top 10 artists at Woodstock were paid to play, well, Woodstock. To give you an idea of how much
money artists used to make, just know that the top paid act, Jimi Hendrix, made $18,000. That's it. Consider that some hack like Kanye West charges about $100,000 just to show up
. Paris
makes more than that to DJ at a party. Paris Hilton. WTF has happened?
Ah, so if you're interested in the full list, here's a link to Jolene's blog:
OK, I'm off! Until tomorrow, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Show # 2113 The Big Brown Blog Returns
by Thrill
posted Mar 9 2015 3:20PM
Man, oh man it's been a looooooong time since I've posted the Big Brown Blog. I've gotten many- an- email over the last year or so asking me why the Big Brown Blog wasn't being done anymore and I've finally decided to answer that question; I've been lazy. Seriously. That's it. No reason beyond me just being the worthless piece of sh*t that I am.
Well, the blog is back, but don't think that I'm no longer a worthless piece of sh*t.
So, since we last spoke, plenty of interesting things have happened here, but I probably won't share most of that. However, there is this one thing you might find interesting: on January 26th of this year, the Men's Room officially became a syndicated radio show. Yep. Our ridiculousness has expanded to WCMF in Rochester, New York. Not sure how or why it happened, but it did, and we're pretty stoked. Here's the thing, when I was a youngster (ages 4 to 13) I lived in Rochester and WCMF was the station I listened to AND it was the station that piqued my interest in radio in the FIRST place. So, for me personally, expanding the show to Rochester on that particular station is pretty f**king cool.
Are there any downsides to this expansion? Not really. I just have to make sure I stop using the names of the people there who I grew to hate. It's like anything else; when you know someone WON'T hear what you're saying about them, it's game on, but now I have to make sure not to use their names. Or make sure that I DO!
As a result of the syndication, we've hired another member to the Men's Room. It's a guy named Mike, who interned with us a while back, but did a bang up job, so when our work load increased, we knew damn well that none of US wanted to do it (back to the lazy thing), so we hired Mike, and he does all the leg work that allows us to sound good in Rochester... as well as putting together questions for 'Big Dummy' and a few other things.
It's been a busy and crazy year for the show, but all of it very positive.
Anyway, the Big Brown Blog is back. Yes, dreams really do come true... and this is not an example of that.
Alright bitches, I'll be back tomorrow. Until then, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Today is the first day of
"Weed Week!"
What, you ask, is
"Weed Week!"
? In a nutshell,
"Weed Week!"
, is the week where we, The Men's Room, allow one of us to get completely baked to the be- Jesus and then do the show. The catch is, we ask you to guess which one of us is the stoned one. Yea, it seems to work out better for
, but, well, sorry. Feel free to get high too.
So today is Monday, day one of our 'green' shows. As always (and by 'always', I mean the last time we did this... about 6 months ago) we put names in a hat. Whoever's name was drawn was today's stoner. Basic stuff.
While Ted received the most votes as the show member who seemed high, it was actually me today who was very, very stoned during the show. To be fair, I received the second most votes. However, to put into perspective how high I was, I forgot to post the blog... so when you see this, know that it's now Tuesday Morning... no longer Monday evening.
Maybe there is something to that whole forgetful thing.
Keep checking back all week for updates and links to any article we read during
Weed Week
Welcome to Day 2 of
"Weed Week!"
Sometimes, when you really,
have to go to the bathroom and you find yourself at the mercy of a public bathroom, few things prove to be more frustrating... or gut crippling... than a door that requires a punch- code to be unlocked. Happened to a guy early Sunday morning at the Francis Marion Hotel in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. He had to poop and he had to poop
Anyway, he repeatedly tried to get the code right, but he couldn't do it in time... so he pulled down his pants and pooped on the floor JUST outside of the bathroom. He was arrested and the police report states that "a large quantity of fecal matter" was observed. For his part, the pooper was genuinely remorseful, saying that he didn't mean to do it, he couldn't hold it (long enough to give the keypad another try) and that he'd clean it up. He spent the night in jail... and all he wanted to do was poop. He got SO close.
On a much more serious note, Frazier Cross, that's the former KKK p*ssy who opened fire at two separate Kansas City- area Jewish Center, murdering three people because he hates Jews, blah, blah, blah... well, none of the three people he murdered were Jewish. Small detail, but we know just eats Frazier up. Hard to be a martyr when you screw up. Today's question:
Jolene contributed to
"Weed Week!"
by bringing us the 'top 10 stoner songs of all time'.
Here's the link
I agreed with some of the list, most of it, really, but with the caveat that I don't know how I'd
them, but they're (almost) all good songs to listen to when you're stoned.
Aw crap, did it again! Maybe it's
"Weed Week!"
, but I forgot to post this blog yesterday as well!"
Wednesday our head chef, Thee Ted Smith brought us a list of the 25 best stoner foods. No matter if you agree or dissagree, you will be hungrey by the
end of this list

There's a guy named Heath, and Heath joined an online dating service a few months ago. The long- and- short of his "dilemma" is this; he met a "beautiful" woman who, in his words, was "prefect"... she was hot AND has a good personality, but there's one thing he admits he just can't move past; she's missing a thumb. This really bugs Heath. Doesn't seem like a big deal to
but in the pursuit of nookie, I've ignored smells, sounds, hair in unexpected places, terrifying moles and lazy eyes. Sometimes you just wanna get laid and it doesn't matter what that might entail. On that note, the folks at
Reddit came up with this
Sometimes, when you're super- horny and you find that CAN scratch that itch, well, you tolerate some things that you'd normally find to be a deal- breaker. WHAT'S THE HARDEST THING YOU'VE HAD TO IGNORE IN THE PURSUIT OF SEX?
Went to a girl's house; she'd left a monster turd in the toilet
Beautiful woman, but she had an under- developed right hand
On a camping trip, his friend walked in, but the girl didn't notice, so he kept going
She had an extended tailbone, which is 'nice- speak for a f**king TAIL!
The girl he was with wanted her boyfriend to watch so he could learn 'good oral technique'. Says a lot
She endured a hairy- shouldered man with a small penis
Dealt with a "seriously cross- eyed" woman. I can't lie, and maybe I'll sound shallow and cruel, but I would laugh my ass off.
Had sex with his girlfriend in the car... while his friends were pounding on the windows wanting a ride
Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of hair... none of it on his head
She had a large and hairy mole just above her tailbone. He actually lost his erection... and he was in the process of losing his virginity!
She would hold her breath until she passed out. First time she did it, it freaked him out because he didn't know if she was dead or not
Beautiful girl "inside and out", as he put it... but she had a severe speech impediment and he couldn't deal
The girl he dated for awhile LAUGHED when she climaxed... that's what she told him, anyway
Until tomorrow, rock out and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Actress Julianne Hough caused an uproar last year when she went to a Halloween party in blackface. She was actually dressed as a character from the Netflix show "Orange is the New Black", but that brought her no reprieve. Robert Downey Junior donned blackface for his character in the movie 'Tropic Thunder' and no one cared. No one cared when Billy Crystal routinely donned blackface during his SNL days when he parodied Sammy Davis Junior. Shawn and Marlon Wayans wore
for their stunningly terrible movie "White Chicks". Well now, Nick Cannon, whipped husband of Mariah Carey, has a new album coming out called "White People Party Music", and to promote it, he's created a character named Connor Smallnut... which is just Nick in whiteface. As you might imagine, some people have a problem with this. And then there's former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. It's no secret that he's no fan of our current President... just part of the typical partisan whining sh*t, but in a diatribe last night about Obama's mishandling of Afghanistan, Rummy stated that "a trained ape" could have done a better job. He had no racial intent, but you know it unfolded anyway. It's easy to offend people these days. Hell, people, as best I can tell, LOVE to be offended. It's the new thing. Anyway, we're sure you've offended someone, but we're wondering if you meant to. LAST TIME YOU OFFENDED SOMEONE, WAS IT INTENTIONAL OR NOT?
Works in pest control; a client asked how he managed to situate himself in a certain part of the house. He responded with, "because I'm skinny." The homeowner was fat and took it wrong.
Told his girlfriend she had National Geographic boobs. That's never a compliment
Asked a dude with one leg what his handicap was... he was talking about golf
Told a Jewish joke to a woman who'd just married a Jewish guy
Waiting for a car to back out of a parking space. Accidentally hit his horn, the other driver thought he was being a d*ck and things got wee bit dicey
Bought a Chihuahua but hadn't registered the dog yet, so he made the joke that the dog was an illegal alien... the Hispanic woman he was talking to didn't think it was funny
A woman asked if he would get something for him; he said, "you have legs". She didn't. She leg. Just one.
Some old dude wanted to fight him because his ears are gauged
As we do every Tuesday, we invited Jolene in for another episode of Sit and Spin. On today's episode we covered the seven surprising musicians who sang in commercials. I was particularly surprised by Paul Stanley, but that's just me.
Here's a link:
OK bitches, sh*t to do so I'm outtie.

A guy in England lost his mother and attempted to mourn her death... which is par for the course... but he just couldn't do it. It's not because he didn't love his mother, it's because his (bitch) wife wouldn't stop singing "
Ding- Dong, the Witch is Dead"
. Seriously. As you might imagine, things didn't end well between that couple. In a nutshell, he freaked out and locked her in a shed, she escaped and confronted him, he grabbed her boobs and started twisting them (???) and he was arrested. Initially it seems hard to imagine that someone (the wife) could be so insensitive... and then I read that Fred Phelps, founder of the Westboro Baptist Church died this morning and I broke into song... to the tune of the Curtis Mayfield classic, "Freddie's Dead". It happens sometimes; you celebrate someone else's misfortune. And that is today's question: WHEN DID YOU TAKE JOY SOMEONE ELSE'S MISFORTUNE?
Broke up with an abusive boyfriend after 4 years... the day she broke it off, he also found out that he's lost his job, all three of his snowmobiles 'broke', his car stopped working AND his truck broke down
Dated a guy for three years, he cheated on her but they worked it out... three years later he left her and married the woman he'd cheated with... they just got into a bad car accident
Ex- wife got herpes from the guy she'd left him for. I think that would make anyone happy
He's happy every time UFC fighter Josh Koshcheck gets his ass kicked
When the "jerk" he worked for in the army got court- marshaled
Was delighted to find out that his ex just had a really ugly baby
Saw a blind guy run into a stop sign and fall over
Loves watching his friends deal with their kids' temper tantrums, unexpected bodily functions, etc.
Recommended a friend to a jog... that friend stole from the company, then had sex with someone else's girlfriend. The pleasure came when he rolled his truck 10 times
Her ex got "fat, ugly and old looking"
Her rude and obnoxious neighbor just got evicted
Took joy in the fact that her sister got too fat to fit into her wedding dress... before the wedding
OK, I'm out, bitches.
Until tomorrow, skip Frozen and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

Anyone who has a job or has EVER had a job... whether you loved or hated it... knows that customers/ clients, have a way of ruining your day. Maybe they mean to, maybe they don't, but it happens... and it happens frequently. If you're lucky, you're job doesn't require you to deal with the public directly, but if you're not- so- lucky, there is, inevitably, a list of things you can count on day- to- day that will drive you nuts. With that in mind, we have a list of '8 Things We Do That Servers Hate' and a list of '7 Ways to Annoy a Flight Attendant'. We picked these because these jobs are all about dealing with the public. Whatever your job is, we wanted to know: WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR JOB, WHAT CAN YOU GUARENTEE CUSTOMERS WILL DO TO PISS YOU OFF?
Cook: When people don't stick to the menu
Pharmacist: when people wait until the last minute to call in a prescription
Cop: people who put their hands up instantly and say "I didn't do it!" I would think as a cop you'd just kinda hate everyone.
Works at a call center: can't stand people who ask "why is there a late charge?"
Mailman: every day he's asked, "what's in the package?" If they know, they're a criminal.
Barista: being asked, "how big is the 16 ounce?" WTF?!? 16 fluid ounces is 16 fluid ounces. Always. You can tell when they call it '16 ounces'.
Hockey ref: people complain about every call he makes. Comes with the territory. No one ever believes that their team could possibly be guilty of an infraction. Must be a conspiracy! Come on.
Drives a recycling truck: hates people who won't just put their recycling IN the can provided
Lots more answers, but it really turned into a bitch- fest... which is fine, but I'm looking for some levity here.
Yea, I'm getting (have gotten?) old, but when Jolene told us that she was bringing is Baby metal, I assumed she meant that Rock-a-by-Baby stuff that's all the rage; songs from Metallica, Tool, Megadeth, etc. played on a xylophone or whatever. I was wrong. Turns out that Baby Metal is an actual f**king
It's a three- piece chic band from Japan. Had no idea.
Here's a link:
OK bitches, I'm outta here.
Until tomorrow, hide the gun and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

The Ivation pocket-sized power pack as a powerful and reliable device without which you simply wouldn't leave the house. With a built-in rechargeablebattery capable of patiently holding 8400mAh of charge for you, this little device can supply your iPhone with 4 full charges, essentially adding 33 hoursof talk time. For bigger smartphones like your Galaxy S3/S4 or Note 2, our power pack can easily output approximately 3 charges. It is even powerful enoughto recharge your iPad or other tablet twice from empty to full.
Powerful Connections
Three ports are strategically laid out for ease of use. On one side of the power pack, a standardized micro-USB port allows you to connect the includedmicro-USB cable and charge up the built-in battery. On the opposite side, two high-quality, 5-volt output ports sit adjacent to each other for simultaneouscharging of two mobile devices.
Both ports can effectively charge most mobile devices, but we bumped up one of them from 5V/1A to 5V/2.1A for quick-charge current, which can also bebetter suited for charging larger devices like iPads and tablets. The Ivation power pack has a nice looking backlit LCD screen that displays a lot ofuseful information about the device:
- When it's charging another device via 5V/2.1A and/or 5V/1A ports
- How much juice is left in the tank; both in percentage and in a 5-bar indicator
- When the power pack is being recharged via micro-USB port
- On/Off status of built-in LED flashlight
Our power pack is clad in an attractive enclosure finished in brushed aluminum, which gives it a superior feel and reinforced structural strength.

This week, rules went into effect that say that reports of research funded by the National Institutes of Health, the major medical research funding agency in the United States, must be made freely available after a maximum of one year. A publication based on NIH-funded work is now required to be deposited in a public database. The law says that "The Director of the National Institutes of Health shall require that all investigators funded by the NIH submit or have submitted for them to the National Library of Medicine's PubMed Central an electronic version of their final, peer-reviewed manuscripts upon acceptance for publication, to be made publicly available no later than 12 months after the official date of publication: Provided, That the NIH shall implement the public access policy in a manner consistent with copyright law."
In this segment, Ira talks with former NIH director Harold Varmus, a leading proponent of open access to research and one of the founders of the Public Library of Science, an open-access scientific journal.

CONCORD, N.H. — About 500 people took part in the March for Life in the capital city of Concord, New Hampshire, Saturday under a sunny sky and temperatures slightly below freezing, but moderate for a January afternoon in northern New England. The pro-life march is one of many held annually throughout the United States around the January 22 date of the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton establishing abortion "rights" for women and forbidding the banning or significant limitations on the freshly minted abortion "rights" in any of the states or jurisdictions of the United States.
Following the march, which started at the State House, the demonstrators gathered at Saint John the Evangelist Catholic Church, a few blocks south of the Feminist Health Care Center, an abortuary located a short walk from the State House. The pro-lifers enjoyed fellowship and refreshments and heard pro-life speakers, including state Rep. Kathy Souza (R-Manchester), who gave an update on right-to-life legislation at the State House, including a ban on partial-birth abortion that passed last year over the veto of Governor John Lynch (D-Hopkinton), a Catholic who in 2009 signed into law the revision of marriage laws that make marriage officially a union of any two persons, thereby codifying same-sex marriage. Rep. Souza also remarked on a resolution, sponsored by state Rep. Candace Bouchard (D-Concord), to "celebrate" the 40th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision. Bouchard made a point of saying she is a Catholic when she introduced the resolution at the State House.
Despite Bouchard's apostasy, the pro-life crowd appeared to be largely Catholic, with a few priests and other members of religious orders marching along with the laity, and with many participants praying the rosary aloud as they marched. Women appeared to outnumber men among the pro-lifers, many of them with small children marching alongside or being carried in their parents' arms or pushed in strollers.

Letter Writing - The most effective way to build a relationship with your sponsored child is through letter writing.
Letter writing can bring together two people from vastly different places and cultures and forge a friendship that is deep and personal. But writing letters to a child in another culture, a child who you may have never met, can also be one of the most challenging aspects of being a sponsor.
The letter-writing part of your sponsorship commitment may seem unimportant or intimidating, but it's through letter writing that you help proclaim the wonderful news of Jesus' love and what He did for us!
Apart from writing letters, how else can your sponsored child be part of your life?
If you view letter writing as a labor of love, you will make that much more of a difference in your sponsored child's life — for poverty is not simply a lack of money, but also a lack of hope.
Speak words of hope to a child in poverty. Write a letter to your sponsored child today!
The single most effective way to build a relationship with your sponsored child is through letter writing.
Letter writing may seem like a novelty in today's world, something fun to do if you're into that type of thing, but it's through our letters, whether they be a quick note or several pages long, handwritten or written online, with or without photos, sent monthly or less frequently, that we send the consistent and deeply personal message, "You matter. I love you. I'm with you."
Our letters bring hope into our sponsored children's lives. They bring the knowledge, and provide tangible reminders and keepsakes, that someone loves and cares. Our letters, just like those of the Apostles, also proclaim the wonderful news of Jesus' love and what He did for us.
Apart from writing letters, how else can our sponsored children be part of our daily lives?
Consider letter writing a labor of love, for when we write a letter to our sponsored child we help her emotional and spiritual growth by:
building self-esteem
encouraging learning
nurturing dreams
providing a tangible expression of love
