Feenix is taking the Apple approach to releasing products, make one model per year and make sure it's really good. This year, their mouse is Nascita, which is shaped a bit like a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 (one of the greatest mice ever). Nascita is driverless, so there is not any extra software to install, has built in DPI up and down buttons with a small screen showing the current DPI, and of course forward and back buttons. It is also ergonomically designed for palm, claw, and semi-claw gamers.

The holiday season is right around the corner and with so many recent game releases, people are going to be looking into new computer builds and also upgrading their gaming gear. The other issue is that there is many companies out there that are not producing great quality products that can perform and hold up to being used by gamers. Thankfully there are many true gamer related companies out there that are looking out for the best intrested in there gamers from quality headsets to keyboards and mouses. One of those companies is Thermaltake which for years has produced gamer cases and other accessories. Over the past few years they have put some time and R&D into their products and from the past few months of testing with some of their TT eSports line of gear we have been pleased with their performance and are interested in seeing if we can keep getting the same performance out of the Theron Infrared Gaming Mouse. So keep reading on if you are interested in learning about the TT eSports Theron Infrared gaming mouse.

One of these is the Archer I which has been designed keeping in mind that the least amount of stress is given to the arms, elbows and the wrist. This special mouse provides a comfortable resting place for the palm and provides support for the hand. The finger buttons are also placed in such a way that they avoid the hovering of fingers.

Liberal Hypocrisy on the 2008 Campaign Trail
by Amanda Carpenter
There's been no shortage of stories to strengthen the "hypocrite" label that's dogged John Edwards's presidential campaign, but that doesn't mean the other Democrats running for the White House haven't been acting holier-than-thou.
A Green Card in Every Pot
by Ann Coulter
Americans -- at least really stupid Americans like George Bush -- believe the natural state of the world is to have individual self-determination, human rights, the rule of law and a robust democratic economy. On this view, most of the existing world and almost all of world history is a freakish aberration.
Senator Cranky Strikes Again!

When Porn Stars Get Offended"
by Mike Adams
When I was in college I was a professional musician. I didn't write many songs but I used to try occasionally to write very stupid country songs hoping I would eventually write one dumb enough for Garth Brooks to record. I even had an idea for one called "When Porn Stars Get Offended." (The punch line was: "When porn stars get offended, that's when I'll quit loving you").
A War of Words
by Thomas Sowell
It has long been recognized that those on the political left are more articulate than their opponents. The words they choose for the things they are for or against make it easy to decide whether to be for or against those things.

One of my favorite Apple references on the Simpsons comes from the following clip. During a school assembly, Kearney tells his buddy, "...take a memo on your Newton: Beat up Martin." He scribbles away only to see the Newton's handwriting recognition interpret his memo as "Eat up Martha." With my Simpsons-geek friends, I still sometimes use this quote in completely inane contexts.
Well, fast forward (or is it rewind?) to yesterday. It was late at night and I had to stop by a bank to deposit some checks. Now, these days I rarely use checks (or to the Canadians reading this – cheques) but from time to time people give me money and a che(ck|que) is what they give me.
I drove up to the bank and walked up to the ATM machine. My plan was to put the che(que|ck)s in the envelope and deposit them into my account. However, I could see that the little slots for dispensing envelopes were sealed off, never to be opened. "Great," I thought. "Do I have to wait until tomorrow when they open it up again? Why would they close this off? I'm sure I've deposited at night before!"
But I continued to examine the ATM. There was a Deposit button on the front of it, so I figured I'd try pressing it first before giving up and heading home. I entered in my card and pressed my PIN number, then pressed the Deposit button.
A set of instructions popped up. It said "Put all of your checks and cash in one pile and insert into the machine." I did not have to separate them, I just put them all together. Some of my che(ck|que)s were of different sizes and all of them were of different values, but I followed the instructions and put them in. I figured I'd have to enter in the amount later. After all, that's how you normally deposit money into an ATM – you put the money into an envelope, insert it into the machine and then type in how much everything is worth, cash and checks.
But here's the thing that caught me off-guard.
I watched as it separated and scanned all of the checks and then displayed the images to me on-screen. "Hmm, that was quick." Then, it told me the full amount of the checks I deposited!
"Holy sh*t!" I said.
Why did I say that? The ATM had scanned the checks and read the values – in human handwriting – and interpreted them as actual numerical values. It added them up and displayed the correct value.
I was very surprised to see that. Machines are okay at reading in text and then OCR'ing it into digital text that a computer can manipulate. However, in my experience, OCR is pretty buggy and only mildly reliable. That's why we have reCAPTCHA – because computers are not that good at reading text with bits of random crud in it. Humans are needed to do that difficult grunt work.
Yet here was a service that not only is reliable enough to OCR text, it is reliable enough to OCR human handwriting... so reliable that the bank feels good enough to use it in their ATM machines where it will be used by many, many customers who will be providing feedback on this new feature.
If a large business like a bank is willing OCR handwriting, then how difficult is it to do reliable OCR on CAPTCHA's, anyhow? Handwriting is variable because each of us do it differently. Most of us print, while a few of us use cursive, but it all contains random crud. If recognizing handwriting is not all that difficult then recognizing text in an image can't be much more difficult, either.
We've known for a long time that CAPTCHAs are broken, but what we mean when we say that is that machines can interpret a CAPTCHA something like 20% of the time (or a bit more, or a bit less). And if you automate it, you can do it as much as you want. Of course, rate limiting can make random guessing a lot less productive.
But what if random guessing became a lot less random? If an ATM can recognize the handwriting of five different people, then I am supposing that a hacker could probably figure out how to beat some of the more common CAPTCHAs (what's funny is that for many websites that use these, I cannot figure out about 1/3 of them).
But on the other hand, maybe the problem of figuring out handwriting isn't a big deal. All an ATM has do it is interpret numbers (in the value field in the checks); it doesn't have to actually read letters, only numerics. Perhaps that makes this a lot easier and the barrier to the next level of reading letters (and hence, breaking CAPTCHAs on the first try) is still pretty daunting. You only need to recognize 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. That's not that many.
Still, the ability to read handwriting is pretty cool. Hopefully this is not another step in machines' quest to take over the world.
Technology marches on and all, but I do think there's at least one substantive difference between a che(que|ck) and a CAPTCHA. Though quality of handwriting is definitely variable, as you mention, I don't think most people slur their block letters (and/or Arabic numerals) into one another enough as to produce the sort of ambiguity that's present in a CAPTCHA image. An extra bar drawn through an entire word can turn an "F" into an "E" or an "O" into a "Q", which the CAPTCHA-cracker is going to have to try to work out. The che(que|ck) parser can operate under the assumption that the user isn't trying to screw with it and go one letter at a time, without considering whole-word distortions and outside context. After all, you WANT your check to be accepted!
All this to say that I think the ATM is receiving far more comfortable input than a CAPTCHA-cracker does. It might be interesting to see if you could get the ATM's parser to fail by, say, taking a thin marker and swiping a random line or two through your name and the dollar amounts.
I want to try this now just to see if the ATM can recognize my atrocious handwriting.
Also, I like how you bend over backward to please folks with check/cheque, but then write "ATM Machine".

Hello everyone. There is a new way of making cash, although it is illegal but also a smart and easy way of living big. I used to be a barrack boy until i became eager and decided to change my life one way or the other. I got opportune to register for the militant amnesty through connection thereby taking me out of the country for training in the United States for a period of 2years. To cut the story short, during my training i meant some white friends who were geeks and also experts at ATM repairs, programming and execution who taught me various tips and tricks about breaking into an ATM. with my knowledge gained from my white geek friends, i have been able to counterfeit and program a blank ATM card using various tools and software. I have ready-made programmed ATM cards or if you want to learn you are also free to contact me. This is no scam. I am just 24 and i have cash, i have a car, i live in Africa and i travel all around the world. i do my things on a low key to avoid suspicion. Some of you will wonder why i am selling this out if truly i am already living large. It is because it is hard task doing it yourself, i wont lie to you, it is not easy to hack ATM talk more of to reprogrammed the card alone. It takes days and sometimes weeks. Some of you will want the ready made card to avoid the stress of doing it yourself and i don't give the ready made card out for free because i spent days trying to make it available for you. e-mail me. firstname.lastname@example.com for more information, explanation and inquiries. NOTE: the ATM card has some pin, no registered account number. It has no limit for withdrawal and it is untraceable. You can collect money from any account just by typing the persons account number. so contact me with my email: firstname.lastname@example.com here is the mobile number of our hacker +2347038566755

get another job and they did all they could to destroy my life just
for declining to amongst their evil deeds. haven't given up i kept
searching for job online when i came across the testimony of a lady
called Vanessa regarding how she got the blank ATM card. Due to my
present state, i had to get in touch with Hacking organization and i

This calculator uses the formula developed by the YMCA to estimate your body fat percentage without calipers. Use a tape measure and enter your waist measurement. Combine the waist measurement with your gender and weight and this calculator will estimate your percent of body fat, how much of your weight is lean mass and how much is fat mass, and your general fitness category. The water displacement test is the most accurate way to determine body fat percent, but the Navy Body Fat test or YMCA formula is accurate within 1-3% for most people.
Lynn Female size 2. I am 5'7 weigh 123 and I am obese according to your calculator. Really?? My doctors have me drinking 700 calorie shakes and are concerned about my lack of body fat. I work out at the gym 5 days a week and have been instructed by the doctors and my trainer not to do cardio because it will cause further weight loss. This calculator is sending the wrong message. - 7/1/2015 1:11:52 PM

Lisa Cooper I am 5ft 3in and weigh 121 lbs. according to your formula I am obese! WTF? - 5/27/2015 6:10:08 PM
Cindy ***If you are UNDER the age of 18 this calculator is NOT for you!!! See your pediatrician for correct information regarding your weight and development. ***
When figuring out if your body composition is within healthy standards you need to not only consider your height, weight and body fat%, but also your waist to hip ratio, your resting heart rate, your blood pressure, and your fitness level.
For women, if your body fat is over 34% you ARE "overweight" regardless of your BMI even if it is in the "normal range". You need to eat a balanced diet and incorporate strength/resistance training into your fitness routine to increase lean body mass.
This website is a fitness tool not a medical test. It's a mathematical formula which is only accurate enough for a general estimate, but works well when you compare it to yourself as you track your own progress during a fitness plan, the margin of error will be the same each time.
The only way to get your true body percentage is a water density test done by a medical specialist.

Not a girl Lol at all the pissy teenage girls pissed at the online calculator that just called them fatsos, this is obviously not accurate, doesnt take in count age, height and lots of other things, if you want someone to call you fat to your face go to a real nutritionist and tell him to measure your body fat - 1/28/2015 8:49:13 PM
bullsh!t i am 17 years old.I am 65 kg and my waist is 93,the calculator says me %30 body fat mass! what the hell is going on this calculator.Bullshit
ben I am 14 years old and i am 5' 3", 95 lbs, and my waist is 25 in. It says i am -3% body fat??? worst calculator, to not trust it! - 10/25/2014 4:39:34 PM
PilatesGirl I am 171cm tall, 59 kg, with the stats bust 81cm, 66cm, 96cm. I am not underweight at all but is am definitely on the skinnier side of body types, I just wanted to know my body fat percentage. This came up as 41%, obese?!?! Clearly vastly inaccurate, I do not look like a beach ball! - 9/7/2014 4:56:38 AM
me i'm 14 and 5 foot 7 and 107 lbs and it said I have 5% and i'm 'dangerously low' whaaaat!? i'm pretty sure i'm like average because I don't feel super skinny, I meen obviously i'm not fat at all but I don't look anorexic which is what this suggests :3 bit confused here!! my waist is 22 inches, am I a healthy weight? - 9/2/2014 8:25:17 AM
tv marathoner um.... they do need height. so oen of these calculators said i was obese at 31% and this one says 19% if i measure at thinnest part 28.5 (which is what women are supposed to do, only men do a navel...) and 26% measured at navel (which is Wrong) most often i get 24-27 on these calculators looking at different ones to try and get a more accurate number. i am 5' 9" 150 pounds. which means like 22 bmi. however i normally get around 26 only with ones that factor in my butt... : ) and having muscles and no fat does make u under weight btw. so anonymous under me is wrong. probably anorexic and doesnt realize it. i think personally beign younger means that having a 26% is little chubby (like as in 5-8 extra pounds, i dont know what your defention is, but that is mine). however, i have been told by people that i am not chubby at all.... ( i know i sadi tv marathoner, but i can easiyl swim a mile, did it last week, and can do a mile running in under 10 minutes(havent timed myself in a while, but last time it was like 9;30) which isnt great but i can do 19 push ups, which also isnt amazing but not overweight! or "acceptable" aka danger of over weight. sry, i like to rant. - 6/18/2014 8:04:57 PM
berrychild These measurements are all messed up. They dont even calculate your height into problem. I weight 130lbs at 5'7" with a 31 in waist. I am very thin with a little belly fat. It Says I have 32percent body fat and I am obese.
Ya'll need a new calculation!!!!!!! - 6/11/2014 12:51:13 PM
Trish Awful!! I am 34 years old, 5'3" and weigh 110lbs soaking wet. This thing says I am OBESE! I may not be muscular but I am definitely not obese. - 6/4/2014 11:14:51 AM
Female Athlete I am a national team athlete in my prime fitness (swimmer). I can do 60 chin ups and am lean. 5'7", 120lbs with a waist of 33 because of oblexe, it says I am obese... highly unlikely - 5/6/2014 2:17:28 PM
Matt You're basing obesity from your BMI measurement? How do you think bodybuilders factor in with such a measurement? - 12/13/2013 9:33:25 AM
Anonymous I got -5lbs of fat - 9/16/2013 11:36:15 PM
MaryLamb Awful calculator. I have a very small waist with full hips and large thighs. 14%?!? No way my body fat is that low! More like 23%! - 8/23/2013 9:01:15 AM
nuttaya junhasavasdikul I am slim with 168 cm height. - 8/6/2013 2:01:34 AM
Isa I am very obese (BMI over 30) and this calculator tells me my bodyfat is 24% en I am 'fit'. Really? This is bullshit. - 8/2/2013 12:12:15 AM

Mountain Ride is a Pennsylvania bluegrass band fancying both progressive and traditional music. The band is composed of Eric Avey (guitar and vocals), Drew Jones (mandolin and vocals), Scott Matlock (fiddle and vocals), Corey Woodcock (banjo), and Kate Avey (bass and vocals). The Mountain Ride sound is deeply rooted to bluegrass with a twist of jam grass and country. Mountain Ride is currently writing and recording their first album.
CD Release is scheduled for April 23, 2015 at Roy Pitz Stube in Chambersburg, PA.
Here is what local bluegrass legend Joey Longwell had to say about Mountain Ride recently:
"You tired of listening to the same old bluegrass music? I love traditional Bluegrass . But I love a wide variety of music. This past Sunday Donna and I paid a visit to Cactus Flatts in Frederick . A very popular local venue that serves up great food and local entertainment. Mountain Ride was the scheduled entertainment . Not your typical traditional bluegrass band. That's because there not. But don't let that steer you away. Give these young folks a listen. You won't be disappointed . High energy, fast paced. You won't hear much dead air around these musicians. They play their music like they stole it. Mountain Ride is like a fast train to musical excitement. This is one ride you will be glad you took!"

Brad Goreski: Cocaine Addiction Nearly Destroyed Me
Stylist Brad Goreski brings lighthearted humor to the sometimes stuffy world of fashion on Bravo's It's a Brad, Brad World -- a far cry from the 34-year-old's dark past.
At age 19, while studying musical theater at George Brown College in Toronto, Goreski was offered his first line of cocaine. "I thought, 'What the hell?'" he writes in his new memoir, Born to Be Brad, as excerpted in the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands Friday).
PHOTOS: Brad Goreski's 12 style stars to watch in 2012
Goreski, who experimented with booze, pot and Ecstasy in high school, succumbed to a harrowing cocaine habit for years. At age 23, he was both exhausted and shockingly thin.
"I needed to get help. It was early on a December morning. I was in our bathroom, staring in the mirror, and I didn't recognize myself. Finally I felt the weight of the situation," Goreski writes. "I told myself, 'You can carry on like this, and the drugs will be your life.' I wasn't doing anything with my life except wasting it."
VIDEO: Brad Goreski tells Us about life without Rachel Zoe
Goreski's then-boyfriend Nick told him, "You don't need to stop drinking. You just need to stop using cocaine." Goreski knew he couldn't get sober living with Nick and called his parents from a pay phone "in the dead of winter.
"I was crying in heaving sobs, saying that I needed to get sober, that Nick and I were breaking up," Goreski writes. "And I was fine for another few months, going to AA meetings. Until I saw Nick out at a club making out with someone else. I fell off the wagon [then] forced myself back to AA."
PHOTOS: Stars who've gone to rehab
"It was May 3, 2001. I was determined to stay sober," Goreski writes. "This was day one: the first day of the rest of my life."
For more on Goreski's past -- from high school bullying ("I didn't belong where I was") to why he really parted ways with Rachel Zoe -- pick up the new issue of Us Weekly, on stands Friday. Born to Be Brad: My Life and Style, So Far is available March 6.

How to Climb the Face of Your Writing Future
By Tineke Bryson, Staff Writer:
If you are shaken by the loss of your earlier confidence and joy in writing, please don't make the mistake of concluding you just don't have it in you after all.
By Tineke Bryson, Staff Writer:
If you are shaken by the loss of your earlier confidence and joy in writing, please don't make the mistake of concluding you just don't have it in you after all.
Tineke Bryson, Staff Writer
As a parent, you field these well-meaning but bewildering questions from relatives and friends. They make you anxious, defensive. All the while, you ache for your son or daughter as they wrestle with their own questions, and there's no way for you to hand them the answers.
Tineke Bryson, Staff Writer:
Watching your young writer agonize over writer's block, or whether their story idea is good enough, can be heartbreaking. Don't you wish you could get inside your son's head and change his perspective? Don't you long to say the right thing—something irrefutable—when your daughter rages that none of your encouraging words are true?
Brynn Fitzsimmons, Guest Contributor:
Literature is a mirror. What do mirrors do? They reflect you as you really are. Likewise, stories are capable, like nothing else, of reflecting the fallen state of the world.
Sam Cooper, Guest Contributor:
Tough criticism should be expected, but in the ocean of comments toeing the line of becoming insults, there is one dangerous judgment a writer can't brush away. It sticks. "Your story doesn't seem original."
Daniel Schwabauer:
Readers are not the only ones responsible for a great critique session. While it is certainly easier to be on the receiving end, the writer has a part to play as well. Here are four rules to observe when your manuscript goes under the microscope.
Daniel Schwabauer
You must commit to being both honest and specific. Everyone in the group should understand this up front. You will be kind, but you will also tell the truth. A critique session is no place for white lies, however small.
Daniel Schwabauer
Why join—or start—a critique group? Critiquing is critical to the development of any writer. The problem, for many writers, is not unwillingness to critique, but lack of opportunity. Good critique groups can be hard to find. So how are you supposed to do all this critiquing without a group?
Rebecca Harrison, Guest Contributer
Writers have an amazing and, I believe, unique opportunity to relate to and understand those around us. On a daily basis, we insert ourselves into the shoes of complete strangers, learning who they are, where they come from, why they do what they do.
Brynn Fitzsimmons, Guest Contributer
Journalism caught me unawares. When an editor offered me a journalism job in my university's communications department, I told him he was crazy. I am a novelist—a fantasy novelist. You do not get farther from journalism than that, right?

ABSTRACT: Solvents including ethanol, methylene chloride, acetone, hexane, and hot and cold water were used in separate procedures to extract needles and bark from ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa L.) to determine which system was optimal for the extraction of abortifacient compound(s). The extracts and residues therefrom were fed by gavage to pregnant cows beginning at day 250 of gestation. After methylene chloride extraction, the pine needle residue fed by gavage failed to abort 4 cows. Subsequently, 4 cows fed the methylene chloride extractable material, adsorbed on ground hay, but free of methylene chloride, aborted (days 253-260 of gestation) and all 4 cows retained fetal membranes. Only 2 of 6 cows fed the pine needle residue after ethanol extraction aborted (days 260 and 261 of gestation) and both retained their fetal membranes, while the other 4 cows calved normally. Hot and cold water extracts did not cause abortion, whereas the extracted plant residue did. One cow fed the plant residue after acetone extraction calved normally as did 1 of 2 cows fed residue after hexane extraction. One cow fed hexane extract absorbed on ground hay also calved normally. These results demonstrate that abortifacient compound(s) present in pine needles are most efficiently extracted by methylene chloride.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):33-9.
Article: Efficacy of intravenous plasma to transfer passive immunity in clinically healthy and clinically ill equine neonates with failure of passive transfer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The efficacy intravenous plasma to transfer passive immunity to clinically healthy colostrum-deprived and clinically ill foals with failure of passive transfer was investigated. Efficacy of transfer was evaluated by the elevation of serum IgG per gram of IgG administered as a function of body weight. Colostrum deprived healthy foals had a significantly greater increase in serum IgG than did clinically ill foals with failure of passive transfer. Knowledge of the IgG content of plasma to be administered and the health status of a foal with failure of passive transfer should allow more accurate prediction of an individual foal's response to treatment.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):7-14.

ABSTRACT: Medical records were reviewed for 11 horses with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx and/or pharynx. The average age at presentation was 15.3 years. No breed or sex predilection was present. At presentation, 6 of 11 horses were dyspneic and 4 horses had inspiratory stridor. Endoscopy was performed in all cases and was more useful in demonstrating a mass in the laryngopharyngeal region than laryngeal or guttural pouch radiography. Surgical excision was attempted in 3 horses and in 1 horse alleviated clinical signs for 4 months. Ten horses were euthanatized and 1 horse died. Results of this study indicated that laryngopharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas are difficult to surgically excise due to their location, size and invasiveness. Treatment is often not attempted because of the advanced state of the disease at the time of presentation.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):15-24.

ABSTRACT: Gastroendoscopic surveys have shown that horses in race training have a greater prevalence of gastric ulceration than sedentary horses. To determine if exercise affects gastric endocrine function the following experiment was performed. Four horses were fed total mixed ration of ground corn and chopped hay at 2% of their body weight, divided into 2 equal portions, daily. Horses were fasted overnight, and serum gastrin concentration was determined just before and 2 hours after feeding. The horses were then sprint trained on a high speed treadmill for 6 weeks. The response of serum gastrin to feeding was then repeated as before. Serum gastrin increased following feeding both before and after training, however the postfeeding gastrin value was higher [p = 0.035] after training (68.1 +/- 6.9 pg/ml [mean +/- 1 SEM]) than before (42.7 +/- 3.8 pg/ml). These data show that treadmill exercise has an effect upon the gastric hormonal response to a meal in the horse. The relationship of this finding to the development of gastric ulcer disease is unknown at present, but warrants further investigation.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):41-5.

ABSTRACT: A 3-year-old Appaloosa stallion with a 4 cm x 4 cm x 2.5 cm mass protruding from his nasal bone was evaluated. Radiographs revealed an osseous mass, with a radiopaque outer margin and several radiolucent areas within the body of the mass. The mass was surgically removed and evaluated histopathologically. The histopathological diagnosis was osteochondroma. This case represent the first reported occurrence of an osteochondroma arising from intramembraneous bone in the horse.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):25-31.

ABSTRACT: In 4 mares suffering from dystocia, general anesthesia was induced with xylazine (1.1 mg/kg, IV) and ketamine (2.2 mg/kg, IV) and maintained with continuous intravenous infusion of ketamine (2 mg/ml), xylazine (0.5 mg/ml) and guaifenesin (50 mg/ml) in 1 L of 5% dextrose. The duration of the procedure of these mares were 40, 45, 180, and 35 minutes, respectively. For procedures required more than 1 hour (Mare 3), the dose of ketamine and xylazine in the mixture was reduced to 1 mg/ml and 0.25 mg/ml, respectively. Average infusion rate of the mixture used to maintain anesthesia for each mare was 2.5, 2.67, 2.28, and 2.21 ml/kg/hr. Recovery to standing occurred at 55, 75, and 180 minutes after termination of infusion for mares 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Xylazine reversal agent, tolazoline (2.2 mg/kg), was given to mare 1 to hasten the recovery; the mare stood within 30 minutes after tolazoline administration. Continuous infusion of guaifenesin-ketamine-xylazine can be an alternative anesthetic technique for prolonged obstetrical procedures under field conditions when suitable anesthetic equipment is not available. If recovery to standing is extended over 30 to 40 minutes, yohimbine or tolazoline can be administered to hasten recovery.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):61-6.

ABSTRACT: Equine leukoencephalomalacia (ELEM) affected 6 of 10 pleasure horses in adjacent paddocks at a boarding facility. Four of the 6 affected horses died or were euthanized. Two of 3 horses presented for treatment survived with complete resolution of clinical signs. Treatment was primarily supportive. Dimethyl sulfoxide, dexamethasone, flunixin meglumine and thiamine were administered as anti-inflammatory agents and to decrease or prevent cerebral edema. Fusarium monileforme was cultured from ear corn fed the affected horses. Fumonisin B1, B2 and B3 were isolated.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):53-9.
Article: Neurologic dysfunction associated with hypernatremia and dietary indiscretion in Vietnamese pot bellied pigs.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Neurologic disease associated with hypernatremia in 2 young Vietnamese potbellied pigs is discussed. Both pigs had recent dietary changes likely associated with excessive salt intake. Case 1 was changed from a commercial mini pig ration to a commercial cat food diet containing up to 1.5% salt 3-4 days before the onset of clinical signs. Case 2 was being maintained on a commercial mini pig ration, however the owner often fed the pig potato chips as treats since its purchase 3 weeks previously. There was no history of water deprivation in either pig. Clinical signs in case 1 included facial-motor seizures, sialorrhea, generalized seizures, tenesmus, disorientation, circling, head pressing, and blindness. Case 2 was disoriented, ataxic, underweight, and appeared blind. Both pigs fully recovered with medical therapy. The rationale for fluid and ancillary therapy are discussed in light of the pathophysiology of salt toxicosis in commercial swine.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):67-76.
Article: Influence of air movement, facemask design and exercise on upper airway, transpulmonary, and transdiaphragmatic pressures in Thoroughbred horses[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The influences of facial airflow, exercise and wearing a facemask on gas exchange and upper airway (Pu), transpulmonary (PTP) and transdiaphragmatic (PTD) pressures were investigated in 6 horses performing an incremental exercise test on an inclined (10%) treadmill. The test consisted of a 2 min walk followed by two 2 min exercise bouts at intensities which produced 40% and 80% of maximal oxygen consumption. Horses performed the test 4 times, once for each of 4 protocols, which involved not wearing a facemask (A), wearing a mask with either no biased flow through it (B), with an expiratory bias of 6300 L/min through it (C), or with an inspiratory bias of the same magnitude (D). Although no statistically significant differences in arterial blood gases, Pu, PTP, or PTD could be attributed to the various protocols, trends that may have been physiologically important were detected. Hypoxemia and hypercapnia associated with exercise were most marked with protocol B and least severe with protocols A or D. PTP was lowest for all tests with protocol D. Of the 3 conditions that required the wearing of a mask, protocol D was associated with the lowest Pu. While impelling air into the respiratory tract, as presumedly occurs with horses exercising over ground, may enhance respiratory function during exercise, this preliminary study does not clearly demonstrate this. Because this is an important consideration when conducting studies involving horses on treadmills, further investigations at higher exercise intensities and with additional methodologies are needed to clarify the issue.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):77-90.

ABSTRACT: Two young Jacob sheep which presented with severe ataxia and torticollis had abnormally formed atlanto-occipital joints. Postmortem examination revealed marked dissimilarity in size between the left and right occipital condyles, with reduction in size of the foramen magnum. The atlantoaxial joint and dens were normally formed, and were not abnormally positioned in radiographs taken of one lamb. Histological evaluation of the cervicomedullary junction demonstrated extensive loss of axons and myelin, gliosis, and mild hydromyelia in one lamb.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):91-8.

ABSTRACT: A 4-month Arabian filly presented for abdominal pain of 30 hours duration was found to have tachycardia, tachypnea, congested mucous membranes and gross abdominal distension. Further examination disclosed gastric reflux and small intestinal distension. Dehydration, prerenal azotemia, electrolyte abnormalities and metabolic alkalemia were observed. There was a progressive nonresponse to analgesic medication and deterioration in the foal's physiologic condition consistent with a small intestinal strangulating obstruction. Surgical exploration was declined. Necropsy examination revealed incarceration of the mid-jejunum in the epiploic foramen with proximal jejunal distension. This case is remarkable as the first report of entrapment of the jejunum in the epiploic foramen of a young foal.The Cornell veterinarian 02/1994; 84(1):47-51.
Article: Combined enzyme and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of caprine Pasteurella haemolytica serovar 2 respiratory tract isolates.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The present investigation describes a novel method of demonstrating strain diversity among Pasteurella haemolytica biovar A, serovar 2 (PhA2) nasal turbinate isolates from a flock of 32 experimental goats during a naturally occurring outbreak of pasteurellosis. After a 21 day conditioning period in a feedyard, 51 PhA2 isolates from 27 culture-positive goats were identified including 1 on day 22, 14 on day 25, 21 on day 39, and 15 on day 66. Each PhA2 isolate was evaluated for its enzyme activity against 19 substrates with a commercial semiquantitative enzyme system and for its antimicrobial susceptibility with 12 drugs, resulting in 7 different enzyme profiles and 8 different antimicrobial susceptibility profiles. A total of 14 combined enzyme and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were produced. The same PhA2 strain was isolated from only 4 of the 12 goats with 2 PhA2 isolations, while the same PhA2 strain was isolated from only 1 of the 6 goats with 3 PhA2 isolations. The data from this investigation demonstrated that the PhA2 upper respiratory tract flora from goats is highly heterologous.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):303-9.

Article: Reaction rate in cats vaccinated with a new controlled-titer feline panleukopenia-rhinotracheitis-calicivirus-Chlamydia psittaci vaccine.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The safety profile of a new controlled-titer feline panleukopenia-rhinotracheitis-calicivirus-Chlamydia psittaci vaccine was compared to that of a currently-marketed vaccine. Of particular interest were delayed reactions (previously unreported in the literature in felines) occurring 7 to 21 days after vaccination, and the effect of concurrent vaccinations and cat age on the delayed reaction rate. Nineteen hundred twenty-four doses of the new vaccine and 364 doses of the comparison vaccine were administered in 42 participating veterinary practices. The postvaccination evaluation period was 21 days. Reactions (anaphylaxis, short- and long-term lethargy, inappetence, pain, upper respiratory inflammation, delayed fever, anorexia, and miscellaneous events) were reported in 3.33% of cats receiving the controlled-titer vaccine and in 3.02% of cats receiving the comparison vaccine. The difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.45). Reaction rate of the controlled-titer vaccine and that of the vaccine currently accepted by veterinarians appear to be equivalent.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):311-23.

ABSTRACT: To examine the possibility of repeated reactivation of canine herpesvirus (CHV), 2 serial treatments with the corticosteroid drug prednisolone (PD) were given at different periods following oral-nasal infection of pups and adult dogs. CHV was not recovered from infected, untreated dogs or from uninfected, treated controls. Viral reactivation of CHV, without clinical signs, was induced twice in 2/3 adults and in 2/3 pups treated at intervals that ranged from 1 to 3 months following the initial infections. Highest viral titers were obtained from nasal swab samples, with lower titers found in the oral pharynx, penis or vagina. In some, but not all dogs, the infectivity titers of the nasal secretion samples were higher after the initial prednisolone treatments than after the second treatments. The duration of viral shedding after the second series of steroid treatments also was shorter than the shedding period following the initial reactivations. The results presented here suggest that latent CHV occurs in both pups and adults dogs following infection and that active infections, with viral shedding, may occur repeatedly for prolonged, but undetermined, periods.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):291-302.

ABSTRACT: This clinical report describes an 8-year-old Thoroughbred mare that was presented for evaluation of a chronic, unilateral nasal discharge. Findings on physical examination, radiology, and video-endoscopy supported a clinical diagnosis of ethmoidal hematoma. After surgical ablation of the mass a defect was detected in the cribriform plate. At necropsy a 1.5 cm aperture was identified in the left cribriform plate allowing direct communication between the fundus of the nasal cavity and the cranium. Histology of the mass identified tissue consistent with an adenocarcinoma. History of profuse epistaxis warrants further investigation to differentiate malignant lesions from the more common benign lesions. During surgical ablation of large, space-occupying masses of the caudodorsal nasal cavity the cribriform plate should be examined for defects or secondary erosive lesions.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):283-9.
Article: Brain abscess in a goat[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A young goat was presented with a left spastic hemiparesis and general proprioceptive ataxia with postural reaction deficits, a right head tilt and positional nystagmus. Seizure-like activity was elicited by rapid changes in the position of the animal's head. The neurological signs and quality of the seizure activity suggested a lesion involving the medulla and possibly the cerebellum. A focal lesion at the level of the left cerebellar peduncles could explain the left hemiparesis and right paradoxical vestibular signs. A large encapsulated abscess was found at the confluence of the left cerebellar peduncles. The morphology and staining characteristics of the organisms within the abscess were consistent with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):275-82.

ABSTRACT: This clinical report describes a case of renal failure in a Holstein calf. It is suggested that the renal failure was hemodynamically-mediated. The combination of a chronic enteritis and failure to ingest adequate fluids produced the hyponatremia, hypochloremia, and metabolic acidosis. The elevated BUN, creatinine, FENa, and isosthenuria confirmed the diagnosis of renal failure. Continued testing of the heifer demonstrated persistence of the renal failure even though the heifer appeared normal on clinical examination. Monitoring the growth rate of the heifer calf demonstrated a severe reduction when compared to age-matched herdmates.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):325-31.

ABSTRACT: An 18-month-old male Belgian horse was anesthetized and placed in dorsal recumbency for cryptorchidectomy. Xylazine was used for sedation and guaifenesin with thiamylal for induction of anesthesia. A surgical plane of anesthesia was maintained with halothane. During anesthesia, second-degree atrio-ventricular blocks, hypoventilation and a 1-minute duration rise of mean arterial pressure (80 to 130 mm Hg) occurred. Total anesthesia time was 1 hour. On recovery from anesthesia, the horse exhibited flaccid paralysis of the hind limbs and was only able to elevate himself to a dog sitting position. The horse was humanely euthanized 22 hours postoperatively due to a lack of improvement in clinical signs. Hemorrhagic poliomyelomalacic lesions of the spinal cord were observed on histopathological examination of the spinal cord.The Cornell veterinarian 11/1993; 83(4):267-73.

The main reason we went to Jordan was to see the lost city of Petra. As lovers of ancient ruins, it was a must see for Angie and I. I first saw Petra as a kid in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." It looked like the most amazing desert discovery in the movie...and it does not disappoint in real life. Petra is an ancient pink sandstone city that is located in southern Jordan. We entered the ruins via horse drawn carriage down the 3 kilometer tunnel that leads to the ancient city. The first building (and most spectacular) was the Treasury....Jump to full entry

When planning my trip, Jordan was all about Petra. Infact I have to have to say Petra was really the reason why the Middle East crept on to the itinerary. But on the safari in Africa John said to me a trip to Jordan without a visit to Wadi Rum was bordering on criminal...he was right. Not knowing much and with the sun quickly going down, I was blindly led to the town of Wadi Rum by a cab driver I found once I finished the ferry ride from Egypt.

We had breakfast at our hotel and took the bus to Petra. I was last there in 1975 and Norm has never been there. When I was there, you had to ride donkeys in, but today, they have dug down to the Roman road, widened it a bit and only let horse-drawn carriages in to the Siq (the narrow gorge that leads to Petra).

Dollar Weakens on Signs Global Recovery Improving; Won Gains
The dollar fell for a second day against the euro and slid versus the yen amid speculation that a global economic recovery is building momentum, boosting stock markets and reducing demand for safer assets.
The euro strengthened as a report showed manufacturing growth in the currency region was stronger than first estimated, bolstering the case for policy makers to raise borrowing costs. Australia's dollar climbed as its central bank signaled business investment is rising. South Korea's won strengthened as the nation's exports increased, while Indonesian and Indian data also showed growing exports. The greenback slid to an 11-week low against the pound on speculation that the Bank of England will raise interest rates this year.
"There are a lot of indications that the growth momentum is very robust, and that tends to work in the euro's favor against the dollar and underpin the more risk-sensitive G-10 currencies," said Henrik Gullberg, a currency strategist at Deutsche Bank AG in London. "An increased focus on inflation, and the fact that the European Central Bank has relatively strong inflation-fighting credentials compared to the Fed, is putting the dollar under pressure."
The dollar dropped 0.5 percent to $1.3764 per euro at 6:15 a.m. in New York from $1.3694 yesterday. It depreciated 0.6 percent to $1.6113 per pound, the weakest since Nov. 15. The U.S. currency declined 0.6 percent to 81.55 yen, the lowest level since Jan. 3. The yen was at 112.21 per euro from 112.34.
Dollar Index
The U.S. currency declined against all its 16 major counterparts as the MSCI Asia Pacific Index of shares rose 0.5 percent and the Stoxx Europe 600 Index climbed 0.8 percent.
Economists predict a U.S. report today will show manufacturing grew for an 18th month. The Institute for Supply Management's factory index was likely 58 in January, down from an eight-month high of 58.5 in December, according to a Bloomberg survey. Readings above 50 signal growth.
The Dollar Index, which tracks the currency against six major peers including the euro, yen and pound, declined 0.4 percent to 77.428, extending its year-to-date drop to 2 percent.
"In the absence of a very strong U.S. story, a very strong economy or some expectation of monetary tightening, the dollar is vulnerable to medium-term weakness," said Jeremy Hale, London-based head of macro strategy at Citigroup Inc. Hale expects the dollar to weaken to $1.40 against the euro within six months as the European Central Bank considers raising borrowing costs while the U.S. Federal Reserve remains on hold.
Pound Surges
The pound gained 0.7 percent to $1.6119, the highest since Nov. 11, when it traded at $1.6123. The National Institute for Economic and Social Research predicted the Bank of England will raise its key rate three times this year to prevent a surge in consumer prices from becoming entrenched. The research group forecast the benchmark rate will rise to 1.25 percent by year-end, compared with an October forecast of 0.75 percent.
"Expectations are growing for higher U.K. borrowing costs," said Takashi Kudo, general manager of market information services at NTT SmartTrade Inc., a unit of Nippon Telegraph & Telephone Corp. in Tokyo. "This is leading to buying of the pound."
Short-sterling futures fell, pushing the implied yield on the contract expiring in December 2011 up 10 basis points to 1.61 percent. That indicates investors are adding to bets that U.K. borrowing costs will rise.
Euro, ECB
The euro appreciated for the seventh day in eight against the dollar. A gauge of manufacturing in the region rose to 57.3 this month from 57.1 in December, Markit Economics said. That's the highest since April and above the initially reported 56.9. A reading above 50 indicates growth. A separate report showed German unemployment fell to an 18-year low last month.
ECB policy makers meet to discuss monetary policy on Feb. 3. Inflation in the euro region accelerated to a 2.4 percent annual rate in January, the fastest since October 2008, data released yesterday showed.
"The euro's been pushing higher on ECB rate expectations," said Geoff Kendrick, head of European foreign-exchange strategy at Nomura International Plc in London. "If the U.S. data this week is stronger, then perhaps U.S. yields will head higher, and that may start to assist the dollar."
Australia's dollar advanced above parity with its U.S. counterpart as Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Glenn Stevens and his board left their key rate unchanged and signaled inflation was likely to remain within its 2 percent to 3 percent target range over the year ahead. The central bank's decision was expected by all 22 economists surveyed by Bloomberg.
RBA Decision, Won
"The RBA is not in any immediate hurry to change rates in either direction," said Greg Gibbs, a currency strategist at Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc in Sydney. "The Aussie is going to struggle to make too much headway from here, and there's always that risk of having a correction."
The benchmark rate of 4.75 percent in Australia compares with as low as zero in the U.S. and Japan, attracting investors to the South Pacific nation's higher-yielding assets. The risk in such trades is that currency market moves will erase profits.
Australia's dollar rose 0.9 percent to $1.0067 and reached the highest since Jan. 3. It gained 0.2 percent to 82.04 yen.
The won strengthened 0.4 percent to 1,116.95 per dollar and rose versus 14 of its 16 major counterparts. The Ministry of Knowledge Economy said exports rose 46 percent in January from a year earlier, more than the 39.1 percent gain forecast by economists in a Bloomberg survey.
The Kospi stock index gained after a U.S. report yesterday showed consumer spending increased more than forecast and a business barometer rose at the fastest pace since 1988.
"There was a lot of news today that boosted risk appetite, whether from Korea or globally," said Kim Sung Soon, a currency dealer at Industrial Bank of Korea in Seoul. "This was the main reason the won strengthened."
