SACRAMENTO - Mercy General Hospital performs the most heart bypass surgeries in California. The success of those surgeries put Mercy in the top 5% of California hospitals, according to latest report from the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD).
OSHPD also reports Mercy's mortality rate of cardiac bypass surgery of 0.97% was considerably lower than the statewide average of 2.35%.
Mercy attributes the success of their procedures a self-proclaimed new era in cardiovascular care. "There's a committed, dedicated team of cardiologists and cardiac surgeons who have committed themselves to this program for many years," said Dr. Michael Chang, the Medical Director of Cardiac Services at Mercy.
Heart patients in the region have access to state-of-the-art Hybrid Surgical/Catheter Lab Suites. Doctors perform mostly catheter procedures in the hybrid lab, but having the option to perform heart bypass surgery in the same room is crucial. According to doctors, precise imaging in a sterile surgical environment, supports minimally invasive and complex surgical procedures in one location.
Some of the latest technology at Mercy includes the use of the Da Vinci Surgical Robotic System to perform valve repairs. News10 was there as Mercy Doctors Allen Morris and Frank Slachman used the Da Vinci System during surgery earlier this summer.
"Historically, we used to do this through larger incisions," revealed Slachman. "The greatest thing the robot has been able to provide us, is to do this literally through pores, tiny small pore incisions."
Morris added, "The robot allows us to manipulate the arms in the body itself. The robotic approach has enabled us to do it more efficiently." All of this contributes to safer conditions and a vast reduction in recovery time.
For catheter procedures, Mercy uses the Hansen Robotic Assisted EP Navigation System which provides doctors with enhanced accuracy and control.
Mercy doctors say they can now offer patients options that were previously available out of the area or even out of the state.

Review – Microsoft Lifechat LX 6000 For Business
Microsoft never promises anything. If you use one Microsoft product today, you will never know if it will exist tomorrow. This is what happened to MSN Messenger, which was the ultimate messaging solution to keep in touch with your loved ones among thousands of developers and other users nearly 15 years back.
Microsoft has officially announced that the MSN Messenger (Windows Live Messenger) service will not exist on or after October 31, 2014. Even though Microsoft retired the service last year, people in China continued to enjoy its services due to some reasons. Microsoft has issued notifications to all MSN Messenger users based in China to make use of Skype for all communication purposes. I really don't know why Microsoft has given an extension of time in 2013 to users in China.
This development marks the end of glorious journey which began in 1999. If you ask me, MSN Messenger was very simple to use and operate. It was very much user friendly that even a small kid could easily learn its usage.
Microsoft discontinued MSN Messenger service to pave way for Skype. With the help of skype, you can not only chat but also make calls by purchasing credits. As of the time of this writing, Skype is available for PC, AAndroid and Windows Phone platforms.
Don't worry. You can still view all your current contacts inside Skype if you login using your Microsoft account.
Summary of all the good stuff done with MSN Messenger
Learnxpress is of the opinion that everything is for good only. It was not a sudden death for MSN Messenger since Microsoft discontinued it in all countries except China in 2013.
It remains to be seen as to when Microsoft will accquire Yahoo Messenger.
Finally end of an Era. it was about time i guess for retiring it with Skype being their.

NCIS Season 10 Episode 23
Double Blind
A Department of Defense investigator scrutinizes the NCIS team's response to the Bodnar case involving the murder of Ziva's father and Vance's wife. Meanwhile, the team examines whether a Petty Officer is suffering from paranoia or if his claims of being followed are tied to a matter of national security.
- Show:
- Season:
- NCIS Season 10
- Episode Number:
- 23
Schmeil was no shock since they said he would be apperaing on the show more then just one time what I did find funny is that Mcgee is the only one that follow the cell phone rule in MTAC
@MCAL First nicer is not a word its either nice or very nice second by calling mcgee evil
Everyone who shipped tiva is all like ughhh this is a bad idea but trust me, the directors know what they are doing and I think they are addin just enough tiva:) go tiva
I only hope that they explore Schmeil's past. However, I am afraid that it will be dropped, just like Ziva's friend Monique (sp) assignment was dropped. I wanted to know what she was doing that she couldn't tell Ziva about. lol
The part with Schmeil generally surprised me. By his first appearance in Gone, I had thought he would be a one off character, but I guess that goes to show that NCIS isn't like most shows... AND I LOVE IT!
But you know what I like about this episode more. The comments when the review goes up will have me laughing (At how people blow things out of proportion), getting angry (Also at how people blow things out of proportion) and shaking my head in agreement (Hopefully that will be with most people).
THis is what the writers need to do to make right what was totally wrong with the Tony/Ziva drama in this episode...it will be Ziva that makes the first move and kisses Tony. Anything else will not do. As far as the show as a whole.....I feel drained.
Nice episode. Even nicer promo.
How was Abby (You need to spell check by the way) being a jerk to the team?
It was predictable that once again Gibbs would be the focus of the cliffhanger. We all know that Harmon signed on for next year so I don't see how the cliffhanger is going to be a shocker. The only person who hasn't signed yet is Cote. Does anyone know if Rocky's contract is still good for next year? I could see him taking the fall out.

Go to my crush and seduce him.
Her for me, but I agree.
I volunteer! *raises hand*
Lol good idea
Visiting family & friends that live out of state. A new outfit an a mani pedi!
Watching the northern lights in Alaska or Scandinavia
What she said.. :)
Robbing banks >;D
me 2.! lol
Why? That seems rather silly, and might cost others their lives as well.
I'd buy a plane ticket and visit my mom.
I would spend the day and the money providing third world communities with food, clean water and medical supplies.
Why do you choose or decide to help
Because if you had the time and the means why wouldn't you? If we are fortunate, surely the right thing to do would be to help those less fortunate. If you were able to help people in this way, wouldn't you want to?
I agree with that , but the less fortune in third world is because of few greedy people in 1st and 2nd world ... ao why dont you try to discorve a way to balance it ...
Yes of course that's the ideal situation however for this purpose - I only had 24 hours and as we all know - Rome wasn't built in a day.
Cross dressing and buy girl cloths all day
Me too.
I would annihilate the diseases , religion and justin beieber.
especially that Beiber creature, Thumbs up.
yeah :) what a nuisance he is
Skydiving, bungee jumping, parasailing ;)
Ill go to the place where no one knows me and just be myself and live life
You can still do that unless you are really Angelina Jolie
Hahahaha that makes sense :)
1. Get up at 8 am

2. prepare and eat toast and drink coffee

3. Read a newspaper and solve crossword

4. Wake up my son, change diaper and fed him

5. Go out with my son

6. Crying becouse I never see him again

7. Call people I care about and tell them I love them and thanking for everything they did for me

8. Turn off my phone

9. Order lunch

10. Eat lunch with my family

11. Put my son to sleep

12. Have sex with my husband

13. Watch a good movie and eating tons of chocolate

14. Play with my son

15. Go out dance and drink a lot

16. Having affair

17. Go home sleep

.........or.............

I'll be to sick to get up from bed, so I stay in bed whole day and die..

If I had the means - I would want to live in my own private fairy-tale and find my happily ever after....even if it were only for 24 hours. That appears to be more than I am going to get in the real world.
Get a ticket to [certain country] and be with my beloved, even for a day, so he can really know how much I love him and that I am always there for him even if we're far apart.
Totally with you on that! :)
It,s not about the place I would go to or things I would do, for me it,s about the person I would choose to spend this time with , to make it special and memorable.
Why do you have an age Questionator?
going to the end of the universe and back.
Learn how to use EP Im new and Im lost.

I'd visit my girl. She's over 1000 miles away.
on a trip to hawaii with my son !
Id go find my online best friend where he lives, get drunk, and party all night and day. He lives in party central and Id love to just get a nibble of that life.
I would go to the ocean and ride the waves.

GoPro HD Helmet Hero
$299 | www.gopro.com | four stars
The GoPro is a near-perfect pocket-sized video camera that shoots surprisingly great 1080p high def, and takes nifty wide-angle photos at a respectable 5 megapixels. The camera itself runs on a rechargeable battery (just plug it into your computer) and lasts about a day. The video is great, and so is the sound quality.
A number of accessories accompany the camera, including a case that allows the GoPro to be mounted to a helmet (or wherever). The camera also comes with a waterproof casing that I am anxious to take deep-water soloing. The camera spits out mp4s, which I had some trouble importing into Final Cut, but worked well with iMovie.I took the GoPro skiing and climbing and shot some cool POV footage of what it's like to be me falling off the crag warm-up or wrecking on the local bunny slopes. I found the footage shot from the perspective of my helmet (or chest harness) to be jittery, embarrassing and without much personality. I decided that the video would be improved by making a boom that stuck out from my body and put the film's star -- Me, wonderful Me! -- into the frame. With a little bit of ingenuity, and the cache of accessories that come with this really fun toy, this was no problem.

HOPKINTON - Hope Valley Elementary Fourth Grade Social Studies Teacher Denise Moretti-Foggo believes that when students gain first-hand experience of what they are being taught, by seeing and touching, it helps them commit the knowledge to memory.
She had been teaching her students about the history of Rhode Island, and more specifically the history of Hopkinton, in recent weeks, in preparation for Historical Hopkinton: A Living History Day Field Trip.
The field trip, which took place on Thursday, Nov. 3, gave students the opportunity to travel around town with their teacher and members of the Hopkinton Historical Association to visit the sites that they have been learning about in the classroom.
"To actually get out and experience the things they have been learning in class," Morettie-Foggo said,"it definitely helps them."
Among the stops on the journey through town and through time, the students visited houses, churches, mills and other sites that played prominent rolls in Hopkinton's history. The discussed the history of Dow Field, Main Street, Barber Hall, Depot Square, Hope Valley Dam and the Hopkinton Meeting house, among other sites.

The band that kicked off Peoria's 33rd annual Erin Feis on Friday afternoon traveled all the way from Ireland to reach the riverfront.
Once in Peoria, the young musicians in FullSet set feet stomping and hands clapping with fresh takes on traditional Irish songs.
Even those who were just Irish for the day quickly got into the spirit. Geneva Bentz, 7, was dancing on the wooden platform in front of the stage before FullSet even finished its warm-up.
Geneva isn't Irish, but she's planning to come to every day of Erin Feis, which runs through Sunday.
"I love the music, and I love dancing," she said, before running off to continue her leaps and twirls.
Erin Feis organizer John Martin said that as the festival has grown over the years, it's been able to attract better performers — including FullSet, performing at Erin Feis for the first time as the grand finale to its four-week U.S. tour.
"We've been here for the past two days, soaking up the atmosphere and really enjoying it," said FullSet member Eamonn Moloney, who plays the bodhran, a traditional drum unique to Ireland. "It's going to be loads of lively tunes, lots of energy and lots of fun."
Josh Lewis and Bob Garls watched, waiting for Red Hot Chili Pipers — a Scottish rock band featuring bagpipes — to take the stage. Most audience members who dressed for the event had added at most a splash of green, but Lewis and Garls sported elaborate plaid kilts.
"The music's awesome, and it's great getting together with friends and family," Lewis said.
While many were there for the music, the weekend-long festival also features Irish dancing, cultural exhibits including a new tent with information on the history of Irish boxing, and, of course, a taste of Irish pub culture.
This year, by popular demand, the festival added additional whiskey and beer tastings, Martin said.
Visitors could sample several varieties, all from Ireland. Janet Vertschy said she enjoyed the Middleton whiskey, but groaned when she asked about the price — $150 per bottle.
She and her husband Tim Vertschy have been coming to Erin Feis for several years and traveled to Ireland as well. But even after seeing the Emerald Isle, they wouldn't miss its outpost in Peoria, Janet Vertschy said. "We just keep coming back to discover more."
Erin Feis
What: The annual festival that showcases Irish heritage through song, dance, food, drink and cultural exhibits.
When: 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Saturday and 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
Where: Festival Park, Peoria riverfront.
Cost: $7 for adults before 5 p.m. and $9 after 5 p.m. Free for children younger than 12 when accompanied by adult. An event pass is $15.

Why Midterm Elections Matter
Though they might have thought they were sneaky, Republicans' gerrymandering is obvious in this graphic showing six swing states and that – by their colors – should have voted overwhelmingly for Romney in November. But did they? Nope, all six went to Obama.
Check it out:
The Republicans have divided up the state into wiggly congressional districts that split up the Democratic urban population centers and make the states look much redder than they really are. The House delegations from these states are not representative of how Democratic these states are. Republicans were able to steal away seats from the Democrats and Progressives in these states
Plus, they are now trying to change the way electoral votes are allocated in Presidential elections, making it by districts instead of by popular vote. They made up districts to suit themselves and now plan to rig the next Presidential election to get what they want.
They must realize that the majority of Americans find the Republican Party ridiculous, prejudiced, and stuck in the past. If you can't win fairly, cheat, right? Wrong. The Tea Party faction of the GOP is driving it off the rails, and the lack of enthusiasm for voting in Midterm elections has allowed it to do just that. Do you live in one of these states, or know someone who does? Tell us about your experiences in the comments, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter to keep track of our progress getting rid of the Tea Party in 2014. We can do it with your help. It's a little while off, but we can't forget how important Midterm elections are. Don't forget to vote! Let's get some sanity back in our government.

Team Top Ten: The Greatest Working Cinematographers
Amir here, to welcome you back to Team Top Ten, our monthly poll by all of the website's contributors. For our first episode in 2014, we are looking at The Greatest Working Cinematographers in the (international) film industry. As long time readers of The Film Experience are surely aware, the visual language of cinema is something Nathaniel and the rest of us are very fond of discussing. Films and filmmakers that have a dash of style and understand cinema as a visual medium always get bonus points around these parts. We celebrate great works in cinematography on a weekly basis in Hit Me With Your Best Shot, but it was time to give the people behind the camera their due.
More than 50 cinematographers from all across the world received votes. If the final, somewhat American-centric, list doesn't quite reflect that, chalk it up to the natural process of consensus voting. Cinematographers like Agnes Godard, Oleg Mutu, Mahmoud Kalari, Rodrigo Prieto and Eric Gautier all had their fans, as did Hollywood stalwarts like Dante Spinotti and Robert Richardson. Furthermore, Harris Savides's name was attached to several ballots, with the unfortunate note that if he were still alive, he'd be on the list. That would have certainly been the case, so here's Glenn Dunks with an honorable mention for Savides, and then on to the top ten:
"Does anybody doubt that Harris Savides would appear on this list if it weren't for his death in 2012 at the age of 55? I would even hazard a guess that he could have been number one. I distinctly remember wanting to know who this man was and what his career had been after witnessing Birth. The way he mixed golden hues of UWS high society with the chilly silver of a New York winter captivated me. That film alone with its graceful tracking shots and magnetic opera sequence would be enough of a game changer if it weren't also for his prior film-defining work with Gus Van Sant on Elephant, Gerry and Last Days. He would later work with David Fincher (Zodiac), Noah Baumbach (Greenberg) and his last great collaborator, Sofia Coppola (Somewhere and The Bling Ring). A mighty force taken too soon."
10. Dion Beebe
"Who on Earth is Dion Beebe?" felt like a common question in the early-to-mid-2000s when the Australian cinematographer stormed onto the Hollywood scene. Whatever it was that director Rob Marshall had seen of his prior work that gave him enough faith to turn to him for Chicago I'm not sure – Australian films Praise and Holy Smoke! were hardly indications to hire him for a lavish musical – but beautiful work it was. Still, if his further collaborations with Marshall on Memoirs of a Geisha (for which he won an Oscar) and Nine (for which he should have been nominated) suggests perhaps little more than a handsome craftsman, then it was his sensual and sensorial work on Jane Campion's In the Cut, visually representing erotic tingles with images, and Michael Mann's digital masterworks Collateral and Miami Vice that proved he was a bold and innovative one, too. – Glenn Dunks

GV Face: Taiwan's Sunflower Protests
Written by Solana Larsen On 9 May 2014 @ 10:02 am | 1 Comment

Join the live video hangout on Google Plus on May 9, 2014 (11:00AM UTC/GMT) [1]
Sunflowers have become the symbol of a protest movement in Taiwan that calls for continued autonomy of the country, amidst strong political pressure for more trade and unification with China.
Protesters stormed and occupied Taiwan's main legislature for several weeks and used social media to communicate their aims and activity in very creative ways.
Is the movement to defend democracy itself democratic?
On GV Face today we talk to Portnoy Zheng [2], co-editor of Global Voices in Chinese [3] on how the protests have been received in Taiwan.

|Scimitar syndrome.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20093947 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|A 38-year-old-female presented to our unit for investigation of an incidental diagnosis of right ventricular dilatation. Transthoracic colour Doppler echocardiography demonstrated an anomalous flow into the inferior vena cava. The suspicion of partial anomalous venous drainage was supported by the finding of a scimitar sign on chest X-ray. Left and right heart catheterization demonstrated a significant left-to-right shunt (Qp/Qs = 2.22) with a step-up in oxygen saturation from the inferior vena cava (IVC) to lower right atrium. Selective angiography confirmed drainage of an anomalous pulmonary vein to the IVC-atrial junction. Scimitar syndrome is a rare vascular anomaly that can manifest in childhood with signs of right heart failure and/or recurrent pneumonia. When asymptomatic, this anomaly can be accidentally discovered in adulthood and should be suspected in cases of left-to-right shunt without evidence of obvious cardiac structural defects.

News from the Left Coast: California Bans Plastic Bags
It was bound to happen, and it finally has. On September 30, 2014, Governor Jerry Brown signed into law a bill that makes California the first state in the country to prohibit stores from offering environmentally-problematic single-use plastic bags to their customers. SB270 provides that plastic bags will be phased out from use at supermarkets, large grocery chains and pharmacies..

Precise Auto Care
This past weekend, I finally got around to getting some work done on my wife's car. It was a fairly simple job of replacing the axles and brakes. Something that takes less than than 3 hours, but it's been something I've been leaving off for the past few months!
There was a point in my life where cars were everything to me. I used to spend hours (and paychecks) just maintaining, modifying, tuning, washing, buffing, waxing, and admiring my little imports. After my first car got jacked and stripped of it's beautiful turbo, I had brought my car to a shop that my mom's coworker recommended. They were super cool and my mom actually talked to the owner for me to see if I can be an apprentice there because I guess she was tired of me spending all my time and money on my car and figured I could make a career out of it.
So, that's where I began my automotive career, I took classes at EVC and worked the weekends at the shop. I thought I knew a lot about cars, but after the owners Viet and Tin introduced me to what real automotive work entailed, I discovered that I knew nothing! I started with just oil changes, brake jobs, cleaning the shop, and then progressed with helping them with timing belt, transmission, and engine replacement jobs.
After about a year or so, the work finally ground me down. I couldn't hang with these guys in this line of work. I started dreading it. The last thing I wanted to do after I got back home from working at the shop was working on my own car or any other car at that point. It was not meant to be, but I still liked the technical aspects of cars. This is about the same time where I said goodbye to the guys at the shop and started working at NUMMI as a Quality Engineering specialist on what else, more car stuff.
Well, kind of like how Goldilocks took a while to find the right bed, I found out that NUMMI and the manufacturing side of the automotive industry wasn't right for me either. I hope that I've finally settled into doing something that I'm truly passionate about, because I finally feel that there's nothing I'd rather be doing for the rest of my life than train people.
So, I am officially over working on cars. I'll leave it to the pros who taught me everything I know about cars and who are about the only damn honest mechanics around. They love what they do, take care of their customers, and they always give it to you straight. Looks like they also taught me a lot about how I want TRACFIT to run as well.
If you have any car concerns at all, do yourself a favor and take your baby over to Precise for me.

In "Among the Thugs," Bill Buford's horrifying nonfiction book about the brutal excesses of British soccer hooliganism, he writes about gangs of fans who travel to European cities like Turin ostensibly to support their teams. In one unforgettable scene Mr. Buford watches as hordes of Manchester United followers swarm out of a Turin stadium and into the streets in a frenzy of violence, savagely beating anyone, children included. In the middle of the mayhem, in between the stomping and punching, he overhears one of the rampaging goons say, "The city is ours" and repeat the word ours, ours, ours. There's a sense that the rioting is a kind of postcolonial invasion for at least this one thug, an idea that's cemented when later he says, "We took the city." There's little overt violence in "The Inbetweeners," a nearly laugh-free British comedy about four teenage boys who travel to Malia, in Crete, to drink and have sex and then drink some more when they don't have sex. Even so, there's a noticeable thuggish undertow to the scenes of the teenagers boozing and sometimes spewing their way through a foreign city amid hundreds of their similarly sodden, wretched and retching countrymen and women.

Hello, fine-gauge knitting machine mavens!
I bought a Silver Reed SK 830 fine gauge machine in 2003, complete with ribber, DAK, curly cord, intarsia carriage, the whole 9 yards. I really enjoyed learning how to use it (and still have a ways to go) but with student loan payments and the realization that I'm spending much more time on spinning, I think it's time to re-sell it. Problem is, I have no idea how to go about doing this. Do folks recommend re-selling through a dealer? I've never sold anything on eBay before, and am not sure how I should go about figuring out how much the machine is worth now, before I would post on eBay. I appreciate any advice anyone can share!

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- It's a one-stop shop where you can fight the flu and help make a child's Christmas a bit brighter. Several local schools will host the 18th Annual Free Flu Shot Saturday, this weekend from 8:00 until noon (or while supplies last).
While the flu shots are free for anyone 4 and older, organizers are hoping you'll dig down deep to help the Empty Stocking Fund, which provides toys and 3,600 food baskets this holiday season. The Fund is marking its 100th year helping East Tennesseans in need.
Flu shots will be available at Austin-East Magnet High School, Farragut Intermediate School, Halls High School, West High School, South-Doyle Middle School and Carter High School.

Fueling a misconception
EDITOR: Tuesday's editorial ("A tax increase that should be no surprise") said that "Social Security is projected to run out of money in 2035." This misconception unduly scares people.
The Social Security trust fund has a surplus of $2.5 trillion, invested in U.S. Treasury bonds. The surplus resulted from the hike in the payroll tax and increase in retirement age made in 1983 in anticipation of aging baby boomers.
Beginning in 2010, payroll taxes collected were less than the amount paid out. To deal with the shortfall, Social Security turned to the interest earned by its trust fund; in 2020, it will begin to redeem trust fund assets.
It is this invested surplus that will be gone by 2035. Then, Social Security will only be able to pay 75 percent of its obligations. While this is a real concern, there are many possible fixes. Increasing payroll taxes or the retirement age would hurt most workers. Most obvious is lifting the cap on payroll taxes; currently, income above $110,000 is not taxed.
Overstating the Social Security shortfall pits generations against one another, making younger people unnecessarily resent paying into a system that is incorrectly projected not to be there for them.
Guns vs. government
EDITOR: In trying to separate gun owners from gun nuts, I realize the latter are worried about the government trying to take over the country. I wish. Expecting Congress to accomplish anything is awfully optimistic.

Rule number one: If you hate Sakura, want to bash her, think she is ugly, weak or useless then you have no reason to even read this thread. You have a right to your own opinion but once you come into this thread you wave the right to say anything bad about this most awesome kunoichi! So there._________________________________________________
I was a little surprised the first time I came into the carachter discusion forum and saw that there was no thread dedicated to her, but I thought that it would only be a matter of time.
I was wrong.
If anyone was ever underapreciated it must be her. Even kishimoto said he thought she was ugly, (ok he said she was not cute, same difference)
How dare he?
Sakura is one really awesome character, she developed more than anybody else in the series save naruto. She managed to go from your typical weak girly lovestruck kid, to a compassionate, insightfull, strong and beautyfull kunoich, worthy of carying the forhead
protector of the leaf.
[b]Come on people, don't neglect her, she needs some loving too. I know there are others out there that apreciate her as I do.
If you can respect Sakura for her sensetivity towards her teammates, and her kindness in general,
If you are proud of her for the amount that she has improved on herself,
If you disagree with kishimoto and have been able to see the cute side of her from the start,
If you love the rougher side of her and chear her on when she is beats some sense into Naruto,
If you started to take a liking to her after being impressed by her willingness to let go of childish things and cut her own hair,
If you have looked at the first time you saw her post timeskip and thought: "My, she became hot!"
if you are a secret fan of Sakura's or if you fight to defend her dignity in the forums,
If you love pink hair with green eyes,
Come in here and give a salute,
We might be many or we might be few, but we believe that sakura has made a great impact on the naruto manga, and on ourselfs.
And therefore she too deserves a dedicated fan thread.
Post away...

|Spirituality and religion in epilepsy.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 18171635 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Revered in some cultures but persecuted by most others, epilepsy patients have, throughout history, been linked with the divine, demonic, and supernatural. Clinical observations during the past 150 years support an association between religious experiences during (ictal), after (postictal), and in between (interictal) seizures. In addition, epileptic seizures may increase, alter, or decrease religious experience especially in a small group of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Literature surveys have revealed that between .4% and 3.1% of partial epilepsy patients had ictal religious experiences; higher frequencies are found in systematic questionnaires versus spontaneous patient reports. Religious premonitory symptoms or auras were reported by 3.9% of epilepsy patients. Among patients with ictal religious experiences, there is a predominance of patients with right TLE. Postictal and interictal religious experiences occur most often in TLE patients with bilateral seizure foci. Postictal religious experiences occurred in 1.3% of all epilepsy patients and 2.2% of TLE patients. Many of the epilepsy-related religious conversion experiences occurred postictally. Interictal religiosity is more controversial with less consensus among studies. Patients with postictal psychosis may also experience interictal hyper-religiosity, supporting a "pathological" increase in interictal religiosity in some patients. Although psychologic and social factors such as stigma may contribute to religious experiences with epilepsy, a neurologic mechanism most likely plays a large role. The limbic system is also often suggested as the critical site of religious experience due to the association with temporal lobe epilepsy and the emotional nature of the experiences. Neocortical areas also may be involved, suggested by the presence of visual and auditory hallucinations, complex ideation during many religious experiences, and the large expanse of temporal neocortex. In contrast to the role of the temporal lobe in evoking religious experiences, alterations in frontal functions may contribute to increased religious interests as a personality trait. The two main forms of religious experience, the ongoing belief pattern and set of convictions (the religion of the everyday man) versus the ecstatic religious experience, may be predominantly localized to the frontal and temporal regions, respectively, of the right hemisphere.

Swollen Glands and Lumps in Children Directory
Swollen glands in children are often a sign of viral or bacterial infection. A swollen gland refers to swelling in a lymph node, commonly in the neck, armpit, or groin. Lymph nodes in the neck may become swollen if your child has a sore throat or respiratory infection. You or your doctor will feel a lump in the neck. This swelling means the body's immune system is doing its job and trying to fight off the infection. The gland may remain swollen for a few weeks after your child is sick. There are several other less common causes for swollen glands. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage about swollen glands & lumps in children, what causes them, how to treat it, and much more.

Fixing a Genetic Flaw
A genetic technique successfully treats Duchenne muscular dystrophy in dogs.
An international team of researchers has successfully treated dogs with the canine form of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rapidly progressing and ultimately fatal muscle disease that afflicts one out of every 3,600 boys. The researchers used a novel technique called exon skipping to restore partial function to the gene involved in Duchenne. The study, published in Annals of Neurology, gives hope that a similar approach could work in humans.
DMD is caused by an aberration in the gene that encodes dystrophin, an important structural protein in muscle cells. Patients with DMD are unable to produce functional dystrophin, which leads to holes in the outer membranes of their muscle cells. Eventually, their muscles degenerate faster than they can be rebuilt, and few patients survive beyond their early 30s.
Unlike traditional gene therapy, which attempts to replace a mutated gene with a functional copy, exon skipping relies on a variation of a technique called antisense, in which short synthetic DNA or RNA molecules are designed to bind to a region of DNA or RNA and block its function. Companies are developing antisense therapies for cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and autoimmune diseases, among others.
The approach grew out of studies comparing DMD to a milder form of disease called Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). Both diseases arise when patients are missing portions of the dystrophin gene's exons, the areas of DNA that code for protein. Paradoxically, some BMD patients are missing much larger pieces of the gene yet are far healthier than patients with DMD. Several years ago, scientists found that the difference is not in how much of the gene is missing, but in how those missing portions affect the remaining gene sequence. Most Duchenne patients have frameshift mutations, which interfere with the cell's reading of three-letter DNA code. These deletions shift the remaining DNA sequence into different triplet groupings, rendering the gene unreadable. In Becker patients, the remaining DNA can still be read normally, allowing them to produce a smaller but still functional version of dystrophin.
Eric Hoffman, a lead author of the study at Children's National Medical Center, in Washington, DC, says that scientists realized they might help DMD patients by creating a "patch" that blocks transcription of a portion of the gene in a way that puts the remaining code back into sequence–essentially recreating the milder Becker muscular dystrophy.

WEST YARMOUTH — Maureen Tuohy-Bedford, head of Yarmouth's Memorial Day observance, put a laundry basket at the end of her driveway in June and by summer's end collected 16,000 pairs of socks for military service men and women.
Changing it up a bit this year, Tuohy-Bedford decided to place a wishing well at the end of her driveway at 570 West Yarmouth Road to collect coins that will be placed on gravestones at Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne and ultimately be used to maintain the cemetery or to pay burial costs for indigent veterans.
The well was donated by the Mill Stores in West Yarmouth and painted red, white and blue by Tuohy-Bedford's husband, Warren.
There is no sign on the well, but its patriotic appearance has given passers-by the right idea about its purpose.
"People just pull over, throw in a coin, and drive away," Tuohy-Bedford said. "I empty the well every night into a jar, but I haven't counted the coins. We'll set it up at the Memorial Day observance next Monday."
The Yarmouth ceremony will begin at 11 a.m. at Town Hall.
According to tradition, a coin left on a headstone or grave site is meant as a message to a deceased veteran's family that someone else has visited the grave to pay respects.
Leaving a penny at the grave simply means one has paid a visit. A nickel indicates that the donor and the deceased trained in boot camp together, while a dime means the donor served with the deceased in some capacity.
By leaving a quarter at the grave, you are telling the family you were with the deceased when he or she was killed.
Tuohy-Bedford said she has collected mostly pennies to date. She hasn't decided whether she will donate other denominations of coins directly to the cemetery or sprinkle the coins near the graves.
"I don't want to change the money into pennies," she said. "I'd rather give it as people donated."
Tuohy-Bedford tries to keep her Memorial Day collections affordable. "People can spare a little change," she said. "They can participate and it doesn't hurt too much."

text: Tsarnaev No Longer in Boston He's been transferred to a federal prison medical facility By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted Apr 26, 2013 6:02 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (3) (Newser) – Boston is now rid of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who has been transferred to a federal prison medical facility about 40 miles west of the city. "Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been transported from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and is now confined at the Bureau of Prisons facility FMC Devens at Ft. Devens, Massachusetts," says an official. The amount of time he spends at the local facility hinges on whether prosecutors decide to pursue execution, NBC News notes. Attorney General Eric Holder will ultimately make the call, but he likely won't do so for several months. Meanwhile, Tsarnaev's parents have left their home in Dagestan—but they're not headed to the US, at least for now. Instead, they're going elsewhere in Russia, CNN reports. Zubeidat Tsarnaeva cites her husband's health; she called him an ambulance yesterday, but gave no details on his condition. (Meanwhile, the Tsarnaevs' carjacking victim tells his story.) This image taken from surveillance video shows Dzhokhar Tsarnaev at a Bank of America ATM in Watertown, Mass. at 11:18 pm on April 18, 2013.

Ms Cyrus, did you know that there are nudist camps all over the world. Why don't you go and hang out there? The reason all of us are not chilling in those places is because we don't want to look at people's naked bodies - but those nudists would not mind you at all.
Sorry.... who was supposed to surprise us again??
This Kathy female is such a sad creature. Never heard a single good or funny thing from her mouth. a Truly bitter old bat.

A March 17 letter published in these pages contained misinformation about the Cape Cod Commission.
First, property tax payments fund part of the commission's work, but the tax paid by each taxpayer is minuscule. I live in Chatham in an averagely assessed home. The percentage of my local taxes that support the commission is less than 1.2 percent. For that I and other Chatham homeowners have received numerous benefits such as assistance with a study of the Route 28 corridor.
The commission is not anti-business and growth. The fact is, the chamber of commerce supports the commission's work. Some of that recent and ongoing work includes developing a plan of strategies by which towns can reduce nitrogen loading/polluting to the Cape's waters as required by the Clean Water Act. Healthy water is as important to the economy and growth of the Cape as to the environment.
Further, the executive director has stressed the need for creating denser and more affordable housing in certain town areas while preserving other areas with less density.
Let's hope well-informed voters at those town meetings where participation in the commission will be considered will have discovered the wonderful value the commission is and so vote.
