El Paso County Sheriff Investigators have a car in evidence and are looking for clues as to whether or not a fire near the Broadmoor was an accident or arson.
The fire started around 4:15 p.m. Friday when a car went off the side of Old Stage Road, landing on a steep mountain hill, about 50 feet below.
The car caught fire and flames spread to surrounding brush and trees. It burned a small area, just about 1/10th of an acre, because firefighters got it out quickly.
While it didn't spread too far, families who live nearby tell us it raises concerns.
"We know that the fire danger is pretty high and I know that there were a lot of phone calls among neighbors and notifying each other of the incident this afternoon. So we're pretty much on edge," said Broadmoor Resident Mark Owen.
Since the Waldo Canyon Fire, Broadmoor residents tell us they are more aware of what's happening around them.
"We even pay attention to smells when we come out with the dogs or go on a walk. We smelt a fire the other night and we're wondering if it's someone wood-burning or it it's truly a fire. You have heightened awareness," said Broadmoor Resident Dede Schuck.
"We all had neighbors and friends who lived up in that area that were affected and who knows who could be next," said Owen.
Fire crews could not find the driver of the car or anyone nearby, so Sheriff Investigators are calling the fire suspicious.
Even though it's early in the investigation, neighbors say the thought of a possible arsonist upsets them.
"It's very scary and I wonder what people are possibly thinking, that they would even try or attempt do something like that," said Schuck.
Investigators plan to go back to the scene Saturday to gather more evidence. At this point there are no suspects.
If you know anything about this fire call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

Feels like ordinary sox
I like them because they really are light weight, feel like sox with treads. After tendon surgery and 3 months of non-swimming, I feel safe and don't feel weighted down by things on my feet. They dry pretty fast and are ready to use the next day. I bought 2 pairs because they sell out fast and a Medium was hard to find.

In 1972, a group of Lafayette, Indiana area parents joined together to create a Montessori preschool. The founders envisioned a parent-organized, board-run not-for-profit school. For more than thirty years, the Montessori School of Greater Lafayette (MSGL) has provided a quality educational experience for area families.
Our school has grown and matured through the efforts of dedicated individuals. As a not-for-profit school, we depend upon the support and commitment of parents. We encourage all families to participate. Volunteer activities include classroom participation, facility improvement, and management.
In 2001, MSGL moved to its permanent location on Soldiers Home Road. More than 150 children attended classes taught by Montesorri trained and certified staff. The school continues to be organized and operated by dedicated parents.
Lets continue to make MSGL a natural place to grow for our children!

Working for The Man, and having fun doing it
Last Saturday I began another project for my church, this time a storage closet built into a 6×12 alcove in our music room. The primary need was to have a secure place to store the brass handbells and accessories used by our church's handbell choir. And, since I love to work with wood and have the tools…I couldn't help but say yes. After all, Jesus was a carpenter, so working for Him is quite an honor. First up was roughing out a design based on what the church folks wanted: room at the bottom—and a double door—to slide in the heavy bell cases and tables without lifting, and shelves for cushions and smaller boxes. I was limited to just over 7 feet high because of a false ceiling and lights overhead.
I made elliptical cutouts in the shelves so nobody bangs his head while reaching into the lower level. Read more

There is no need to seal the piece first because the sealer is mixed directly with the color, so it goes on as you add a base coat or decorate.

Five people are lucky to be alive after a house in Castle Rock exploded Friday morning.
The force of the explosion could be felt in surrounding homes on Sulfur Court, a couple of which sustained some damage. Nearby residents reported feeling shaking and say insulation rained down throughout the neighborhood after the blast.
Four children managed to escape through an upstairs window just before the explosion, while the woman inside had to be helped out. None were severely injured.
The explosion was reported at 7:18 a.m. Police believe the explosion may have been sparked by the microwave, though that is not confirmed.

According to the Durango Herald (http://tinyurl.com/azfjujx), investigators used sandbags to seal off an area along the water's edge after a search dog alerted search teams. The water will be pumped out to search the reservoir's bottom.
Dylan has been missing since Nov. 19, a day after arriving at his father's Vallecito home for a court-ordered visit during Thanksgiving break. The boy was living with his mother and brother in the Colorado Springs area.
The father says he last saw Dylan asleep when he left home early to do some errands. He reported the boy missing that afternoon.

The massive failure of students who sat for Form IV National Examination last year has attracted a fierce debate in Parliament this week with most MPs calling for the reinstatement of the Form II National Examination.
The MPs blamed the government for issuing a circular in 2008 to abolish the Examination, which acted as yardstick for determining whether a student should continue with Form III studies or not.
However, they admitted that establishing Community Secondary Schools was a good idea but argued that the examination was important for gauging students' ability to handle Form III students.
Deo Filikunjombe (CCM- Ludewa) said the government should emulate private schools by conducting continuous assessment examinations at the end of each academic year.
"If we want Form IV students to perform well then we must reinstate the Form II National Examination. Students in private schools do better because they are assessed at the end of each academic year. Those who do not score the set marks are not allowed to continue with studies the following academic year," he said.
Assumpter Mshama (CCM-Nkenge) echoed Filikunjombe's observation, but said that the final examination should not be a yardstick. Academic development should be traced and assessed from pre-primary level.
"A student may be very bright but she/he may perform poorly in the final national examination due to being ill or just because of panic," Mshama defended her argument.
Recently, a government official who was working with the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training confided to The Guardian on Sunday that the government can not escape blame for the massive failure of Form IV students who sat for the final national examination last year.
Speaking on condition of anonymity the government official, who is now working as District Administrative Secretary in one of districts in the country, said the Form II National Examination was of great importance for assessing students' competence.
"Our children have recorded poor performance in the Form IV National Examination results because those who sat for the examination last year belong to the first batch of students who continued with Form III students without being subjected to the scrutiny of the Form II National Examination in 2008 ," he said
Suzan Lyimo (Chadema – Special seats), apart from blaming the government for abolishing the Form II National Examination, asked the public to get prepared for worse results in the Standard VII National Examination.

Wanted: A Berry Good Option for Lunch On the Goamberdoty
Every year when summer nears I find myself doing something that is usually quite unpleasant. After months of bundling up in bulky coats, sweaters, and pants, it is time to pull out the shorts and tank tops and have a moment to reflect on all that comfort food I consumed while trapped indoors.
I am powerless against the treats of the holiday season in particular, and year after year I find that summer skirt just a little too snug for comfort and, since wearing your zipper halfway zipped hasn't emerged as this season's hottest fashion trend, I have once again found myself scrutinizing my eating habits.
Diets never work for me. I'm just not very good at sacrificing tasty food for the sake of my waistline. I have to instead find things to eat that are both great tasting and great for me. Luckily, I love almost all fruits and vegetables and summer time is the best time for one of my favorite varieties of produce: berries.
Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries — I love them all. The fresher, the better and, best of all, since they are in season they are low in price. I like to stock up and keep them around the house for a healthy snack to tide me over between meals.
Keeping my eating habits in check while hanging out at home is easy. For me the challenge comes when eating out. It's a necessary evil. When I'm running errands away from home I can't always take a break to drive back to my own kitchen. I have to find something I can eat on the go that's also good for me.
Recently, I tried the Wendy's Berry Almond Chicken Salad. To be completely honest, I've always been skeptical of fast food salads and I rarely order them, but this one had berries, strawberries, almonds, and asiago cheese and looked incredible. I challenged myself to skip the french fries just this once and give a salad a shot.
I wasn't disappointed. The berries were as fresh as the ones in my refrigerator at home which makes sense as I later read they are sliced in-store daily. I'm definitely going to keep this salad in rotation this summer and if all goes well I may be able to zip my skirt by the season's end.
A big thanks to Wendy's for sponsoring this campaign. Click here to see more of the discussion.

The event takes place at the Crestwood Stake Center during the fifth-annual Swap N' Shop from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. The center is located at 6401 Westwind Way in Crestwood.
The Swap N' Shop started when mother-of-two, Amy Hanson, needed post-pregnancy clothes. She was devastated to find out a friend had just donated loads of clothes to charity in her size.

The MIMER_STORE_MUSIC Schema
Schemas have been used to group objects related to a specific area; note that all the schemas are owned by the ident MIMER_STORE.
It is possible to ignore the schemas other than MIMER_STORE; they can be viewed as a black box for the purposes of an introduction to SQL.
A CREATE SCHEMA statement is used to demonstrate that, within the statement, an object doesn't have to be created before it can be referenced.
The DURATION domain introduces the INTERVAL data type.
Table name
ARTISTS Holds artist names (e.g. Bruce Springsteen) with a Soundex value based on the name.Shows that objects in schema other than the current have to be qualified with the owning schema name. TITLES Links an artist name with an item. TRACKS Holds track details, e.g. title, length. SAMPLES Holds samples from the tracks.
View name
DETAILS This view includes the PRODUCT_DETAILS view and demonstrates a number of things:Tables can be included from more than one schema.The use of a correlation name in the PRODUCT_DETAILS table reference.Restriction conditions can be applied so that different users would see different results, in this case the ident MIMER_WEB would not see vinyl albums.One of the quirks in SQL - ITEM_ID has to be explicitly included in the select-list. SEARCH This view is based on DETAILS but includes additional selection restrictions.Note that the AS clause is noise and may be omitted but it does add clarity. This view demonstrates both forms.
Note that the CREATE SCHEMA statement includes grant object privilege statements as well as object definitions.
PSM Routines
The names in the PSM routines for this schema have been capitalized rather than the parts separated by an underscore.
PSM routine name
AddTitle Procedure to insert the base details for an album into the database, updating a number of tables.There are a number of checks on the input, for instance that the format is valid for the Music category and that the label exists in the PRODUCERS table - these introduce exception handlers.Uses another form of the row data type.Demonstrates the use of current_value of a sequence. AddTrack Procedure to insert the track details for an EAN code.Demonstrates the use of SQLSTATE values in an exception handler.Introduces the RESIGNAL statement and shows another option with GET DIAGNOSTICS. ArtistName Function to remove any leading definite or indefinite articles from a name. ArtistSearchCode Function to return the Soundex value of a character string after it has been processed by the ArtistName function. Search Result set procedure that searches the Music 'database' for matches based on the supplied title and artist details; a third parameter specifies the maximum number of rows to be returned (a value of zero suppresses this feature).Makes use of the SEARCH view. Includes the use of the DISPLAY_ORDER column in the FORMATS table to present the data in an order other than alphabetic.Each row is given a star rating that indicates the level of match (**** = exact). The artist 'Bruce Springsteen' provides a number of matches.This procedure demonstrates the level of functionality that can be stored in the database. TitleDetails Result set procedure that returns music details for a given item identifier.Given the result from a search this would allow the user to 'drill down' into the displayed information.Illustrates how the compound statement label can be used to qualify a variable name. Shows that interval arithmetic can be performed. TrackDetails Result set procedure that returns any track details for a given item identifier.Usage is the same as for TitleDetails.Demonstrates the use of a user defined SQLSTATE.
There are two statement triggers in the MIMER_STORE_MUSIC schema, both defined against the ARTISTS table. They are designed to ensure that the value of the ARTIST_SEARCH column is based on the artist name. The same technique as used in the MIMER_STORE schema to force an unconditional update is applied in the insert trigger.
The update trigger is written to show that it can contain the same level of functionality as any PSM routine; in this case it uses a cursor to process the updates.
Execute privilege on the PSM routines Search, TitleDetails and TrackDetails is granted to MIMER_STORE_GROUP.
Synonyms are created by MIMER_STORE for all tables and views in the MIMER_STORE_MUSIC schema. The synonyms are created with a MUSIC_ prefix for the DETAILS, SEARCH and TITLES tables/views.

LAURINBURG, NORTH CAROLINA -- We always go to Golden Corral for breakfast. We got our plates and went up to the bar first. There was no biscuits to eat. So there was a gentleman standing that was dressed in a Golden Corral outfit. I ask him if there was a bar where they fix eggs and omelets. He wheeled on me and said "right there is eggs and there is the stuff for an omelet". He showed me scrambled eggs. I was so humiliated that I turned to our party and said "let's go, we're not going to eat here".
My husband went and got our money back and ask to talk to the manager and the same gentleman said "I am the general manager and I have been here for 8 yrs". Well he proceeded to argue with me and said he didn't disrespect me but he did. I told him I would be tuning him in. He said "do what you got to do". There were more people complaining, I just don't think he could handle the pressure. The is a good stop for people going to Myrtle Beach; if you don't do something this restaurant will continue to go down. General manager Robert **. He need an attitude adjustment. My husband told him he should have left his attitude outside the door when he came in.
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA -- As soon as I entered Golden Corral on N. Tryon St., Charlotte employee at register told me "NO MORE STEAKS AT BREAKFAST." I went ahead & selected food from the bar, but now has 75% GREASE items. Will not return.
INDIANAPOLIS INDIANA -- I was at the Golden Corral on East Washington Street Indianapolis Indiana on Saturday January the 4th 2015 at approximately 5 o'clock. I witnessed an older black lady snapping on another male employee and threw his jacket at him. This is not the first time that I have witnessed the server Cynthia snapping on a employee. She has no manners, she is rude and ghetto. The management does nothing but move her to the other side of the room. I work food service and if we were to snap on each other in the dining room we will be fired. This lady has been there for I've been going for like a year and she's been there they just need to get rid of her. Again her name is Cynthia , a black lady.
PUNTA GORDA, FLORIDA -- Waitress used dirty rags on tables. They pile all the dishes with food on them on tables, then you have to look at that while you have your dinner. We went there Monday. I have complained about the bathroom in the past. The bathrooms just keep getting worse. My husband went in and said too dirty to use. The floor was so dirty your feet stick to floor in the bathroom. My husband loves the food. I hate the bad way things are handled there. The servers need much training and the place needs major cleaning. I don't want to eat there at all, my husband has different idea. Management wake up.
NOBLESVILLE, INDIANA -- I just want to start that I have been a customer since they opened and I have never been dissatisfied with my service. I also want to let you know that as long as ** is a manager I will never ever eat there again. He was very rude and needs customer service classes. I am also going to post my experience at all mommy website in my area to let moms know what type of service they will get when eating with their children. I called ** the owner and left a message with what happened.
I went to eat with my children today and I served my 10 month old some spaghetti noodles and meatloaf on a plate and if you know babies they really are not the cleanest. I told the server, whom by the way was very nice, that I would clean it up because it was messy. She was laughing and told me not to worry about it that she would take care of it. A while later a man comes over with a broom and dust pan and asked if he could sweep up the mess because it looked really bad and I acknowledged that and told him that I would of picked it up but that the server said not to worry about it that she would take care of it.
After that he asked me if they were this messy at home and I said yes they are but that I have dogs at home that clean up whatever mess they make. At that time it was still a normal conversation so I thought. After that he told me that if they were his kids that they would be eating it off of the floor. He was being serious... I told him that he was 10 months old and doesn't know any better and he said yes they do... And I told him that he was wrong and you can't do that. I was kind of shocked and didn't really know if that was an insult to me or if he was just an idiot and didn't have any children or if he did does he really treat a baby that way....
After that conversation I was kind of like, is this a insult and I starting having the feeling that what he said was not appropriate and that if was a jab at me and my parenting skills. I was furious and I actually talked to him after my meal and was shocked to hear that he was a manager at the restaurant. I told him that I was very upset about what he had just said and that I would be contacting the owner, he actually brought me the number. I also told him that what he said was inappropriate and rude and at first he asked me what was so wrong about what he said.
And I told him that you don't talk to people that way and that you don't make kids eat food off the floor if they drop it and he said that he would make them eat it off the floor. What type of people do you hire at your restaurants. Even if my children were messy it's not appropriate for a manager to make you feel like you are a bad parent for letting them be children. Like I said I will never eat there again and don't send me any coupons unless this manager no longer works there...
Golden Corral employees do not restrict children under 10 from handling the food. I was at the restaurant for breakfast Sunday 7/10/2011. By the pastry station there was a bowl of m&m's and a bowl of gummy bears. There was a child approx 6 yrs old that had his hands in both bowls pulling out candy and placing on his ice cream cone. There were 2 employees working at the station and did absolutely nothing. They did not stop the child from putting his hand in bowls. By right both bowls were now contaminated and should have been thrown out and washed and restocked.
I was really turned off by the lack of hygiene and lack of enforcement. I was at the restaurant on Pines Blvd in Hollywood, Florida.
On the 26th day of May me and my family went to eat at the Golden Corral. The food was good but when I discovered a hard black piece in my potatoes the waitress and the manager said that it comes like that. I said okay went got some more and found another one. It didn't take a smart person to know that those pieces where the mold that be in taters and there supposed to be taken out. The manager was notified and he said would get back with me. I ate a little longer still no sight of the manager. He walked pass me twice - how rude.
ORLANDO, FLORIDA -- My wife and I had been long time customers for at least 10 years and became friends with one of the assistant managers in the restaurant only and took it as good customer service for loyal customers. This man knew I was going out of town for work and made a comment to my wife while I was getting food and said that I told him he could take my wife home with him. My wife was devastated about the remark and since I had applied there a couple months prior he had access to our address.
When the district manager called me back after 6 days of me calling the corporate office I was advised it was his word against hers and he could do nothing about it. Even though the assistant manager was in the wrong for sitting at our table and talking every time we went in, bringing food to our table and giving us an occasional free meal but the unwanted sexual advances was his word against hers.
MCCOMB, MISSISSIPPI -- I wanted to take my grandmother out to eat for her sixty-fifth birthday lo and behold it was delayed until 8-20-2010. I decided for us to eat at the Golden Corral where you could get all you could eat dinner buffet for 10.00. The food was great and the server was excellent I didn't even ask for a refill and the server just gave me another refill. One thing that surprised me is my grandmother she was enjoying herself for someone with type 2 diabetes she was able to find food she could eat. The total bill tax and all was 25.10 and I gave the server a 4.00 tip. For sure I will come again maybe to try the breakfast buffet.
COLUMBUS, GEORGIA -- I took my 15 year old daughter out to lunch... the total of our ticket was $22.22. Most of the food was too cold to enjoy. The dishes provided at the salad bar and dessert bar were unclean. My daughter would not eat anything but ice cream and her beverage. I chose Golden Corral over Ryan's because it was not crowded and I thought we could enjoy a quite meal... Now I know why there were so few diners at the lunch hour... The waitress that handled the area we were seated in, however, was excellent. She was constantly checking on us and she apologized for the food...
Oh yeah, the cashier handed my daughter $2.00 that was supposed to be my change... it belonged to someone else... When the cashier came to retrieve the money, she was quite rude as if I stole the money outright... How embarrassing - for $2.00.

Investor Lawsuits Are Raising the Heat on Bank of America for 'Putbacks'
When Countrywide Financial created deeply flawed mortgage-backed securities, it wasn't just selling bad financial products: It was breaking its contracts. Now some ordinary investors are suing Countrywide's buyer, Bank of America, to force it to repurchase those bad mortgages. That's their right, but there's nothing simple about this case, or its ramifications.

Women ruled at this year's Twin Cities Black Film Festival (TCBFF) as several female produced and directed films and shorts were screened in September. "Anyone who takes the time and the courage to do this, I'm all for that," notes TCBFF Founder-Director Natalie Morrow. "I'm not a filmmaker, but I know that it's a lot of work that goes into filmmaking — just trying to find your funding, your actors, your editing and all that."
"I write a lot [but] I went to school to learn how to edit so I can do my own projects," said writer-director Schonte Hamilton. "We're looking at short after short… that's just wonderful to see," observed Deedra Miller, who wrote and also starred in her own film. Continue Reading →

The tuxedo remains the final frontier of menswear, especially for the current generation. It's the sartorial elephant in the room, even for guys who are fastidious in their dress, always waiting for "black tie optional" to appear on an invite (it's never optional). Stylish men are often perplexed by the subtle options and codes that go into formal dressing. Shawl collar or peak? Waistcoat or cummerbund? But the conundrum is less a matter of taste than of education and suitable, accessible options. Enter Acne Studios and Mr. Porter, who have teamed up for an exclusive eveningwear collaboration that seeks to assuage whatever anxiety you may have. The collection, launching in November on Mrporter.com, is a decidedly younger mix of jackets and trousers in bespoke jacquard fabrics cut in the slim, cool silhouettes for which Acne is known the world over. "The fact that a very contemporary brand like Acne is working with us on a collection is testament enough that there is a younger and cooler audience out there who wants to adapt and adopt eveningwear into the rest of their wardrobe," says Sam Lobban, Mr. Porter buyer and the brains behind the project. The collection is the perfect offering for the young fashion-minded man tasked with formal attendance this holiday season, in the spirit of looking great and appearing to know exactly what you're doing.

Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis
Topic Overview
What are polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis?
Polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis are inflammatory problems.
In polymyalgia rheumatica (say "paw-lee-my-AL-juh roo-MAT-ih-kuh"), the joints and the areas around them get stiff and may ache. It mostly happens in the neck, shoulders, and hip.
In giant cell arteritis (say "ar-tuh-RY-tus"), inflammation occurs in the blood vessels that carry blood up through the neck to the head. It mostly affects the arteries that carry blood to the eyes, temple, and jaw. Giant cell arteritis is also called temporal arteritis.
Polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis can occur at the same time and affect the same groups of people. Experts believe that the two problems are linked.
Polymyalgia rheumatica is more common. But giant cell arteritis is more dangerous, because it can cause loss of vision and may lead to a stroke or mini-strokes. People who have giant cell arteritis need treatment right away.
What causes polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis?
Experts don't fully understand the cause of these conditions. It may be that the body's defense system (immune system) is attacking the body's own tissues. Your genes may play a role in this. For example, people whose ancestors are from Scandinavia or Northern Europe are more likely to have these problems.
What are the symptoms?
Symptoms of polymyalgia rheumatica often start suddenly and get worse without treatment. The problem can cause:
- Muscle pain and morning stiffness in the neck, shoulders, and hip area.
- Tiredness and lack of energy.
- Fever.
- Weight loss.
Symptoms of giant cell arteritis can start either suddenly or slowly. This problem needs treatment right away, because it can cause blindness, a stroke, or mini-strokes. Symptoms include:
- A headache, often near the temple or around the eye.
- Vision problems.
- Tenderness of the temple or scalp.
- Pain or aching of the tongue or jaw.
How are polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis diagnosed?
Your doctor will do a physical exam and ask you about your symptoms and past health. He or she may suggest blood tests to find out if you have the conditions. Your doctor will have to rule out arthritis, because the symptoms are similar. To see if you have giant cell arteritis, a surgeon may take a sample (biopsy) from a blood vessel on your temple and test it for inflammation.
How are they treated?
Your doctor will give you steroid medicines to treat the inflammation. People often feel better in a day or two. Most of the time, symptoms improve quickly and go away 2 to 4 weeks after treatment begins. After this, most people need to continue to take steroid medicines for 1 to 2 years or sometimes longer. This helps to control symptoms and to prevent the problems from coming back.
Steroid medicines can cause your bones to thin (osteoporosis). Calcium is important for keeping your bones strong. So you need to make sure you are getting enough calcium, enough vitamin D, and enough weight-bearing exercise to strengthen your bones. Your doctor may also give you a medicine to prevent bone thinning.
Who gets polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis?
These problems most often occur after the age of 50. And the risk increases after that as you get older.
Frequently Asked Questions
Learning about polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis:
Being diagnosed:
Getting treatment:
Polymyalgia rheumatica
Symptoms of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) often occur suddenly and get worse without treatment. Typical polymyalgia rheumatica symptoms include pain and morning stiffness in the:
- Shoulder.
- Neck.
- Pelvic and hip region.
These symptoms are caused by inflammation of joints, tendons, and bursae of the hip and shoulder regions. The pain affects both sides of the body. For example, both shoulders will usually be painful, not just one. Usually, both the shoulder and hip areas are affected.
Other symptoms of polymyalgia rheumatica may include:
- Feeling tired and having no energy or strength (fatigue).
- Weight loss.
- Fever.
- Depression .
- Swelling of the knees, wrists, or ankles.
Giant cell arteritis
Symptoms of giant cell arteritis (GCA) can develop gradually or suddenly. They require immediate treatment.
Symptoms of giant cell arteritis may include:
- Headache, often near the temple or around the eye (temporal headache). Headaches are a symptom for most people who are examined for giant cell arteritis. The headache may begin as a dull, throbbing pain on one side of the head around the eye or near the temple. Sometimes the pain may feel like a stabbing or burning sensation.
- Vision
problems. These problems may come on quickly and be temporary, but
sometimes they do not go away. Examples include:
- Brief loss of vision or partial loss. This can last seconds to minutes.
- Blurry or double vision.
- Blindness.
- Patches of poor vision surrounded by normal vision.
- Decreased sharpness (acuity) of vision or focus.
- Tenderness on the side of the head (temple) or scalp. The blood vessel on the temple may also look swollen and its pulse may be decreased or absent. You may notice tenderness when you wear your glasses or comb your hair.
- Pain, aching, weakness, or cramping (claudication) of the tongue or jaw, especially when you chew food or talk for long periods of time.
Other uncommon symptoms of giant cell arteritis may include cough, hoarseness, chest pain, and arm weakness or cramps.
Some people with giant cell arteritis do not have the typical symptoms of headache, jaw pain, and vision problems. About half of people with giant cell arteritis will also have symptoms of polymyalgia rheumatica.1
Untreated giant cell arteritis can cause narrowing (constriction) of some of the arteries in the skull or head, reducing blood flow. As a result, a person with untreated giant cell arteritis is at greater risk of blindness, stroke, or mini-strokes (transient ischemic attacks, or TIAs).
Exams and Tests
To diagnose polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA), your doctor will do a physical exam. He or she will ask you about your past health and symptoms. Because the two conditions often occur together, it is important that your doctor determine which one is causing your symptoms. Giant cell arteritis can be serious and needs immediate treatment with higher doses of medicine than polymyalgia rheumatica does.
Age is an important factor in making the diagnosis, because these conditions rarely occur in people younger than 50. A limited range of motion in the arms may be a sign of polymyalgia rheumatica. And arteries on the temple or forehead that are swollen, lumpy feeling, or tender may be a sign of giant cell arteritis.
Tests that can help diagnose polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis include:
- Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). This test measures how quickly red blood cells (erythrocytes) settle in a test tube in 1 hour. A high ESR may be a sign of polymyalgia rheumatica or giant cell arteritis.
- Complete blood count (CBC). People with either polymyalgia rheumatica or giant cell arteritis often have mild anemia. A CBC can show this.
- C-reactive protein. This test measures the amount of C-reactive protein (CRP) produced when you have inflammation somewhere in your body. Both giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica can cause a high CRP level.
- Temporal artery biopsy. When your doctor suspects giant cell arteritis, this test can confirm the condition. In this biopsy, a surgeon will take a sample of a blood vessel on your temple and test it for inflammation.
- Ultrasound . In some cases, ultrasound of the arteries on the side of the face near the temple (temporal arteries) may help diagnose giant cell arteritis. This way of using ultrasound is still being studied for use in the United States.
Your doctor may confirm a diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica with a trial of corticosteroid medicine. If you have polymyalgia rheumatica, you are very likely to have great relief of symptoms within 2 to 4 days of starting treatment.
Tests that may be done to be sure another condition is not causing your symptoms include:
- Rheumatoid factor (RF) test, to check for rheumatoid arthritis.
- Antinuclear antibodies test, to check for lupus or another autoimmune disease.
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone test, to check for an underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism).
- Serum protein electrophoresis (SPE or SPEP) test, to check for abnormal proteins found with diseases like multiple myeloma.
Treatment Overview
Corticosteroid medicine is the most common treatment for both polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA). People with either or both conditions usually have fast relief of their symptoms soon after starting corticosteroid treatment.
Initial treatment
Corticosteroid medicine treats both polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA). In general, you will use the corticosteroids at a certain dose until your symptoms go away and your lab tests are normal. When this occurs, your doctor will gradually begin reducing your medicine.
For polymyalgia rheumatica
- You take lower doses of corticosteroids than for giant cell arteritis.
- You are likely to have a lot of pain relief in a few days. Symptoms usually go away, and your lab results are normal in 2 to 3 weeks. If your symptoms don't start going away in 2 to 4 days, your doctor may give you a higher dose and do further testing to be sure your condition is polymyalgia rheumatica.
- After your symptoms go away and your lab tests are normal, your doctor will gradually lower your dose, about every few weeks to months.
- You will probably have to take corticosteroids for about 2 years or more to prevent the symptoms from coming back (relapse). Some people only need to take the medicine for less than a year.
For giant cell arteritis
- You take higher doses of corticosteroids than used in polymyalgia rheumatica.
- Because giant cell arteritis can cause serious complications, such as stroke or blindness, your doctor may start treatment immediately, even if the diagnosis has not been confirmed by tests.
- You are likely to have a lot of pain relief in a few days. Symptoms usually go away, and your lab results are normal in 2 to 4 weeks. If your symptoms don't start to go away, your doctor may give you a higher dose.
- After your symptoms go away and your lab tests are normal, your doctor will gradually lower your dose, about every 2 to 4 weeks in the first several months, then less often after that.
- You will probably have to take corticosteroids for 1 to 2 years to prevent relapse, although many people with the condition need them for longer than 2 years.
How long you need to take corticosteroids depends on how severe your condition is, whether it appears cured or not (remission), and how often you have relapses. Some people are not able to completely stop taking corticosteroids. If this happens, your doctor may suggest another medicine such as methotrexate to help control your symptoms and keep the condition from coming back.
Ongoing treatment
After your symptoms have gone away and your lab tests are normal, ongoing treatment for polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA) usually includes continued use of corticosteroid medicine.
Your doctor gradually lowers the amount of medicine you take. How quickly he or she does this varies with each person.
- In polymyalgia rheumatica, most people have to take corticosteroids for about 2 years.
- In giant cell arteritis, most people have to take corticosteroids for 1 to 2 years. But many people with the condition need them for longer than 2 years.
If your symptoms do not improve with corticosteroid medicine, your doctor may need to test you for other conditions that are similar to polymyalgia rheumatica or giant cell arteritis.
Your doctor will track your condition while you are taking corticosteroid medicine and for 6 to 12 months after you stop taking the medicine. This may include regular appointments or phone calls to discuss your symptoms. And you may need tests to measure your erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or your C-reactive protein (CRP) value.
If you need long-term corticosteroid treatment for either condition, you are at risk for bone thinning (osteoporosis). This is because corticosteroids reduce how well your body takes in calcium, which is important in building strong bones. Your doctor may recommend a bone density (DXA) test to see if you need medicine (bisphosphonates) to prevent osteoporosis. Or he or she may simply start you on bisphosphonates without the test. For more information, see the topic Osteoporosis.
Treatment if the conditions get worse
In both polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA), your symptoms may come back (relapse) after a period of improvement. This often occurs in the first 2 years of treatment or during the first 12 months after you stop taking corticosteroid medicine. A relapse usually occurs if the dose of corticosteroids is reduced or withdrawn too quickly. But sometimes people have a relapse over the first 2 years that is not related to how corticosteroids are used. If you have a relapse of symptoms, your doctor will increase the corticosteroid dosage for a period of time then gradually decrease it after your symptoms are gone.
In rare cases, giant cell arteritis can affect the main part of the aorta in the chest, rather than one of its smaller branches, causing an aortic aneurysm. If this were to happen, you would feel severe chest pain that could extend to your back, and you could faint or have symptoms of a stroke. If you have giant cell arteritis and have such symptoms, contact your doctor or call 911 immediately. Though rare, such an event may be life-threatening. Your doctor may recommend that you have an annual chest X-ray to watch for an aortic aneurysm.
Giant cell arteritis can lead to partial or complete loss of vision in one or both eyes. If you have sudden onset of double, blurred, or "browned-out" vision, or temporary loss of vision, your doctor may increase your corticosteroid dose. And for a few days he or she may give you the dose directly into a blood vessel (intravenously) to try to prevent permanent or further loss of vision.
What to think about
If you have polymyalgia rheumatica and do not have giant cell arteritis, your doctor may suggest using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) when you are lowering the dose of your corticosteroid medicine. Always talk to your doctor or nurse before using these medicines. Be safe with medicines. Read and follow all instructions on the label.
Some doctors recommend taking aspirin if you have giant cell arteritis. This is because some studies show that doing so may reduce the risk of vision loss, stroke, or transient ischemic attacks (blood flow to the brain is interrupted).2
Corticosteroids can cause serious side effects, including high blood pressure (hypertension) and bone thinning (osteoporosis). If you are taking long-term corticosteroids to treat polymyalgia rheumatica or giant cell arteritis:
- You will need to get enough calcium and vitamin D.
- You may also need bisphosphonate medicine such as alendronate or risedronate to prevent bone loss.
- You can help reduce the risk of osteoporosis by lifting weights and doing weight-bearing exercise such as walking. For more information, see the topic Osteoporosis.
- Your doctor may suggest that you take a proton pump inhibitor such as Prilosec or a medicine called an H2 blocker (acid reducer) to protect your digestive (gastrointestinal or GI) tract, including your esophagus and stomach. Taking a lot of medicine for a long period of time can irritate these areas and can even lead to ulcers. Proton pump inhibitors and H2 blockers decrease the amount of acid the stomach makes. This reduces irritation of the stomach and can help reduce irritation of the esophagus.
Methotrexate, or other medicines that suppress your immune system, may be used for polymyalgia rheumatica or giant cell arteritis alone or with corticosteroids to reduce the corticosteroid dose and limit its side effects. Research results are mixed on how well this treatment works.3
Giant cell arteritis sometimes affects the large arteries of the arm. In rare cases, this interferes with blood flow. This can cause pain and cramping when you use your arm. In a small study, balloon angioplasty opened up the arteries of the arm to reduce symptoms of giant cell arteritis.4
Home Treatment
To feel your best during treatment for polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) or giant cell arteritis (GCA):
- Take your medicine as prescribed by your doctor.
- Work closely with your doctor and nurse. Be sure to report medicine side effects or any symptoms of giant cell arteritis, such as headache, jaw pain, and vision problems.
- Eat a balanced diet.
- Stop smoking, and avoid being around tobacco smoke.
- Reduce how much alcohol you drink. It's a good idea to have no more than one beer or one glass of wine each day.
- Be sure you get enough calcium and vitamin D to help prevent bone thinning (osteoporosis) if you are taking corticosteroids.
- Get mild, regular weight-bearing exercise. This will help keep your bones strong and bolster your physical and emotional ability to handle your illness.
If any of your symptoms get worse or come back, contact your doctor or nurse.

- "The hour of judgment is upon me and I must ask myself if I am a sheep or a goat."
- — Zero becomes nervous and talks about everything.
New Model Army is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas served to the protagonist Carl Johnson by Zero from his shop in Garcia, San Fierro, San Andreas.
Zero and Berkley have planned a showdown, the loser of which must leave San Fierro for good. To win, Zero must safely get his RC Bandit into Berkley's compound. However, Berkley has an RC Chopper dropping many items on the path leading to the compound, therefore blocking Zero's route. This all takes place in the RC BattleGround
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Remove any obstructions so the bandit can reach Berkley's base
- Berkley's Goblin will constantly try to block the path of your bandit. Clear it out so the bandit can continue.
You control an RC Goblin, and you must remove objects to clear Zero's route. You have a total of 08:00 to complete the mission. Zero has 3 Bandits, so if one is destroyed he will spawn in another, but will have to start from the beginning. The Bandit's health level appears on-screen. Begin by removing the first barrel in Zero's way- just drop it in the "river". Zero will drive to a gap in the path and request a bridge. However, if you bridge the gap he will drive directly into the firing range of one of Berkley's 3 RC Tigers. Therefore, a better alternative is to leave Zero's Bandit at the gap while you destroy the 3 tanks- one is directly ahead along the path, the second is near the second gap, and the third is directly outside Berkley's base. If time permits, drop a bomb on Berkley's Goblin to stop the influx of barrels. Then, bridge the gaps and follow alongside the Bandit to get rid of any barrels remaining on the path.
$7,000, and the Zero RC store becomes a money-earning asset for Carl.
Trick for this mission: Do not remove the first barrel, but instead finish up the Panzer (RC Tigers) up ahead and the barricades ahead, when those arre all done, go back and take the first barrel. So the toy car will roam free!
Carl can also work on eliminating Berkley's Goblin first, then the RC Tigers. Taking out the enemy Goblin would prevent Berkley from dropping any more barrels. Once all enemy vehicles are gone, all Carl needs to do is focus on removing any existing barrels and laying down the bridges.
* As with the others in the Zero strand, this mission is optional in relation to the overall storyline, but is mandatory for 100% completion of the game and for those wishing to obtain another asset.
* Originally, a fourth mission, Tanked Up, was needed to complete the strand, but this mission was cut during development of the game.
* The mission shares its name with the revolver, Remington New Model Army.
