High Cholesterol
What is high cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a type of fat (lipid) in your blood. Your cells need cholesterol, and your body makes all it needs. But you also get cholesterol from the food you eat.
If you have too much cholesterol, it starts to build up in your arteries. (Arteries are the blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart.) This is called hardening of the arteries, or atherosclerosis. It is usually a slow process that gets worse as you get older.
To understand what happens, think about how a clog forms in the pipe under a kitchen sink. Like the buildup of grease in the pipe, the buildup of cholesterol narrows your arteries and makes it harder for blood to flow through them. It reduces the amount of blood that gets to your body tissues, including your heart. This can lead to serious problems, including heart attack and stroke.
Your cholesterol is measured by a blood test:
- High cholesterol is 240 or above.
- Borderline-high is 200 to 239.
- Best is less than 200.
What are the different kinds of cholesterol?
- LDL is the "bad" cholesterol, the kind that can clog your arteries if you have too much of it. This is the cholesterol you need to lower, if you have high cholesterol.
- HDL is the "good" cholesterol. HDL helps clear fat from your blood. You want your HDL to be high. A high HDL level is linked to a lower risk of heart disease.
- Triglycerides are another type of fat in your blood. If you have high triglycerides and high LDL, your chances of having a heart attack are higher.
What are the symptoms?
High cholesterol doesn't make you feel sick. By the time you find out you have it, it may already be narrowing your arteries. So it is very important to start treatment even though you may feel fine.
What causes high cholesterol?
Many things can cause high cholesterol, including:
- The foods you eat. Eating too much saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol can raise your cholesterol.
- Being overweight.
- Being inactive.
- Age. Cholesterol starts to rise after age 20.
- Family history. If family members have or had high cholesterol, you may also have it.
- Overall health. Diseases such as hypothyroidism can raise cholesterol.
How is high cholesterol diagnosed?
You need a blood test to check your cholesterol. There are several kinds of tests:
- A fasting cholesterol test is the most complete test because it measures all of the fats in your blood, including LDL and HDL cholesterol and triglycerides.
- A direct LDL test measures your LDL level only.
- A simple cholesterol test can measure total cholesterol and HDL.
How is it treated?
If you have high cholesterol, you need treatment to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. The two main treatments are lifestyle changes and medicine.
Some lifestyle changes are important for everyone with high cholesterol. Your doctor will probably want you to:
- Eat a heart-healthy diet that includes plenty of fish, fruits, vegetables, beans, high-fiber grains and breads, and healthy fats like olive oil.
- Lose weight, if you need to. Losing just 5 lb to 10 lb (2.3 kg to 4.5 kg) can lower your cholesterol. Losing weight can also help lower your blood pressure.
- Get regular exercise on most, if not all, days of the week. Walking is great exercise that most people can do. A good goal is 30 minutes or more a day.
- Don't smoke. Quitting can help raise your HDL and improve your heart health.
Changing old habits may not be easy, but it is very important to help you live a healthier and longer life. Having a plan can help. Start with small steps. For example, commit to adding one fruit or one vegetable a day for a week. Instead of having dessert, take a short walk.
If these lifestyle changes don't lower your cholesterol enough, or if your risk of heart attack is high, you may also need to take a cholesterol-lowering medicine, such as a statin. Knowing your heart attack risk is important, because it helps you and your doctor decide how to treat your cholesterol.

Frequently Asked Questions
Learning about high cholesterol:
Being diagnosed:
Getting treatment:
Living with high cholesterol:
High cholesterol can be caused by:
What you eat. Eating
too much
saturated fat,
trans fat, and cholesterol can cause high cholesterol.
- Saturated fat and cholesterol are in foods that come from animals, such as meats, whole milk, egg yolks, butter, and cheese.
- Trans fat is found in fried foods and packaged foods, such as cookies, crackers, and chips.
- Your weight. Being overweight may increase triglycerides and decrease HDL (good cholesterol).
- Your activity level. Lack of physical activity can lower your HDL.
Your age and gender. After you reach age 20, your cholesterol
naturally begins to rise.
- In men, cholesterol generally levels off after age 50.
- In women, it stays fairly low until menopause. Then it rises to about the same level as in men.
- Some diseases. Certain diseases may raise your risk of high cholesterol. These include hypothyroidism, chronic kidney disease, and some types of liver disease.
- Your family history. High cholesterol may run in your family. If family members have or had high cholesterol, you may also have it.
- Cigarette smoking. Smoking can lower your HDL cholesterol.
- Certain medicines. Some medicines can raise triglyceride levels and lower HDL (good) cholesterol levels. These medicines include thiazide diuretics, beta-blockers, estrogen, and corticosteroids.
High cholesterol does not cause symptoms. It is usually found during a blood test that measures cholesterol levels.
Some people with rare lipid disorders may have symptoms such as bumps in the skin, hands, or feet, which are caused by deposits of extra cholesterol and other types of fat.
What Happens
Having high cholesterol can lead to the buildup of plaque in artery walls. This buildup is called atherosclerosis. It can lead to coronary artery disease (CAD), heart attack, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), and peripheral arterial disease.
Atherosclerosis can cause these problems because it:
- Narrows your arteries. When enough plaque builds up, it starts to narrow your arteries. This happens slowly over many years. In time, the plaque can limit blood flow throughout your body, including the heart and brain.
- Hardens your arteries. A healthy artery can widen (dilate) so that more blood can flow through when needed, such as during activity. When hard plaque forms in the walls of an artery, it can make the artery too stiff to widen. This "hardening" of your arteries can also limit blood flow in your body.
- Blocks your arteries. When a blood clot forms around a crack or rupture in the plaque, it can block the artery. This can cause a heart attack or stroke.
For more information, see:
What Increases Your Risk
Some things that increase your risk for high cholesterol are things you can change, but some are not. It's important to lower your risk as much as possible.
Things you can change include:
- Eating foods high in saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol.
- Being overweight.
- Not being active every day.
- Smoking.
Each of these things can raise your LDL, lower your HDL, or both.
Things you cannot change include:
- Family history . If high cholesterol runs in your family, you may have it, and it may be harder to treat.
- Age and gender.
For more information, see Cause.
When to Call a Doctor
High cholesterol usually has no symptoms. Sometimes the first sign that you have high cholesterol or other risk factors for heart disease is a heart attack, a stroke, or a transient ischemic attack (TIA). If you have any symptoms of these, call 911 or other emergency services.
Heart attack symptoms include:
- Chest pain or pressure, or a strange feeling in the chest.
- Sweating.
- Shortness of breath.
- Nausea or vomiting.
- Pain, pressure, or a strange feeling in the back, neck, jaw, or upper belly, or in one or both shoulders or arms.
- Lightheadedness or sudden weakness.
- A fast or irregular heartbeat.
After you call 911, the operator may tell you to chew 1 adult-strength or 2 to 4 low-dose aspirin. Wait for an ambulance. Do not try to drive yourself.
Nitroglycerin. If you typically use nitroglycerin to relieve angina and if one dose of nitroglycerin has not relieved your symptoms within 5 minutes, call 911. Do not wait to call for help.
Women's symptoms. For men and women, the most common symptom is chest pain or pressure. But women are somewhat more likely than men to have other symptoms like shortness of breath, nausea, and back or jaw pain.
Stroke and TIA symptoms include:
- Sudden numbness, tingling, weakness, or loss of movement in your face, arm, or leg, especially on only one side of your body.
- Sudden vision changes.
- Sudden trouble speaking.
- Sudden confusion or trouble understanding simple statements.
- Sudden problems with walking or balance.
- A sudden, severe headache that is different from past headaches.
Who to see
Any of the following doctors, nurses, or specialists can order a cholesterol test and treat high cholesterol:
- Nurse practitioner (NP)
- Physician assistant (PA)
- Family medicine doctor
- Internal medicine doctor
- Cardiologist
- Endocrinologist
A registered dietitian can help you with a diet to lower your cholesterol.
People who have rare lipid disorders, which can be hard to treat, may need to see a specialist, such as a lipidologist or an endocrinologist.
Exams and Tests
A blood test tells you if you have high cholesterol.
- A simple cholesterol test can measure total cholesterol. You can eat before this test. Sometimes doctors do this test first.
- A fasting cholesterol test is a more thorough test. It measures your total cholesterol plus your LDL, HDL, and triglyceride levels. It is called a fasting test because you don't eat for 9 to 12 hours before the test.
- A direct LDL test measures your LDL level only. You can have this test done at any time, no matter when you last ate.
What do your cholesterol numbers mean?
Your numbers help your doctor know your risk of getting heart disease or having a heart attack or stroke.
Your total cholesterol level is important. But your levels of LDL, HDL, and triglycerides help your doctor decide if you need treatment for high cholesterol. Your doctor will also consider your overall health and your risk of heart attack. For more information, see the topic High Cholesterol Treatment Guidelines Based on Heart Attack Risk.
To learn about the results and numbers for cholesterol tests, see the topic Cholesterol and Triglyceride Tests.
Total cholesterol
Your total cholesterol number shows if your cholesterol is too high.
|240 or above
|200 to 239
|Less than 200
If you have high cholesterol, your doctor will want to know your LDL and HDL levels before deciding whether you need treatment and what sort of treatment you need.
LDL (bad) cholesterol
You want your LDL level to be low. But how low your LDL should be depends on your risk of heart attack.
Your doctor will help decide what your LDL goal is. The higher your risk of heart attack, the lower your LDL goal.
HDL (good) cholesterol
You want your HDL level to be high. An HDL level of 60 or higher is linked to a lower risk of heart disease. A high HDL number also can help offset a high LDL number.
Your risk level
When you visit your doctor to talk about your cholesterol test, you will talk about other things that increase your risk for heart problems. These include:
- Smoking.
- Diabetes .
- High blood pressure .
- A family history of high cholesterol and heart attack.
If your risk is high, or if you already have heart problems, your doctor will be more likely to prescribe medicine along with lifestyle changes.
To find out your risk for a heart attack, see the Interactive Tool: Are You at Risk for a Heart Attack?
Other tests
- You may need other tests to find out if another health problem, such as hypothyroidism, is causing your high cholesterol.
- A C-reactive protein (CRP) test may be done for some people who are at risk for getting coronary artery disease. A special type of CRP test, the high-sensitivity CRP test, can help find out your chance of having a sudden heart problem, such as a heart attack. This test may be done even if you have a normal or low level of LDL cholesterol.
When to have a cholesterol test
Most doctors recommend that everyone older than 20 be checked for high cholesterol. How often you need to be checked depends on whether you have other health problems and your overall chance of heart disease.
Your child's doctor may suggest a cholesterol test based on your child's age, family history, or a physical exam. A cholesterol test can help a doctor find out early if your child has a cholesterol level that could affect his or her health.

Treatment Overview
The goal in treating high cholesterol is to reduce your chances of having a heart attack or stroke.
The two types of treatment for high cholesterol are:
- Lifestyle changes.
- Daily medicines.
Lifestyle changes
Your doctor may suggest that you make one or more of the following changes:
- Build good eating habits.
- Lose weight.
- Get more active.
- Stop smoking.
For more information, see Making Lifestyle Changes.
Many people try lifestyle changes first. But if lifestyle changes aren't enough to reach your cholesterol goal, you will need to take medicine too. Even if you take medicine for high cholesterol, keeping healthy lifestyle habits is still important.
Some people need to start taking medicine right away because their risk of heart attack is higher than average. Your doctor will base your need for medicine on your risk level.
Once you know your risk for heart attack, you can learn more about treatment for your risk level.
You may also need treatment for other health problems, such as high blood pressure.
A heart-healthy lifestyle can help you prevent high cholesterol. This includes:
- Eating a diet low in saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol.
- Getting plenty of exercise.
- Managing your weight.
- Not smoking.
Heart-healthy diets include the Mediterranean diet and the American Heart Association diet recommendations. This chart compares several heart-healthy diets(What is a PDF document?).
Some people may not be able to prevent high cholesterol with lifestyle changes. Family history or certain conditions that cause the body to make too much cholesterol can raise levels even with lifestyle changes. In these cases, medicine can help.
Remember that high cholesterol is just one of the things that increase your risk for heart attack and stroke. Controlling other health problems, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, can also help reduce your overall risk.
Making Lifestyle Changes
Lifestyle changes are important to help control high cholesterol, especially if you have other risk factors for heart disease and stroke.
Even if your doctor has prescribed medicine for you, you may still need to make changes at home to lower your cholesterol and reduce your risk. Some people can even take less medicine after making these changes.
What changes do you need to make?
One Man's Story:
Joe, 61
"The walking was the easy part for me. I get out every evening for a walk. The food part took some thought. Each week, I added a food that was good for me and took something away that was bad for me."—Joe
Read more about how Joe is improving his cholesterol by making one change at a time.
Make these lifestyle changes to help lower your cholesterol:
Eat healthy foods
Making healthy eating habits a part of your daily life is one of the best things you can do to lower your cholesterol. Your doctor may recommend that you follow the Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes (TLC) diet. The diet's main focus is to reduce the amount of saturated fat you eat, because saturated fat raises your cholesterol.
If you have questions about which diet to follow, talk to your doctor.
For more information about food and high cholesterol, see:
- Healthy Food Choices to Lower Cholesterol.
- Foods and Their Effect on Cholesterol.
- Fish, Fish Oil, and Cholesterol.
- Foods to Avoid for High Cholesterol.
Lose extra weight
Losing just 5 lb to 10 lb (2.3 kg to 4.5 kg) can lower your cholesterol. Losing weight can also help lower your blood pressure.
For help, see:
Get active
Regular physical activity raises "good" HDL cholesterol. Getting active has many other benefits too. It can help you lose weight. And it can lower your blood pressure.
For tips, see:
- High Cholesterol: Raising Your HDL Level
- Fitness: Adding More Activity to Your Life
- Exercise and Physical Activity Ideas
- Quick Tips: Getting Active at Home
Don't smoke
Quitting can help raise your HDL and improve your heart health. "Good" HDL levels often go up soon after a person quits smoking.

One Man's Story:
Joe, 61
"I've learned to not beat myself up [when I slip up]. Instead, I refocus on my plan and get right back to eating healthy food. What keeps me going is the results—I've lost weight, my cholesterol's getting better, and I feel younger every day."—Joe
Statins are the medicines used the most often to treat high cholesterol, and they often work the best. They can reduce the risk for heart attack, stroke, and early death in people who are at high risk for a heart attack or stroke. Other medicines also lower cholesterol, and some may be used to lower triglycerides or raise HDL.
Doctors may also prescribe aspirin therapy if you have had a heart attack or a stroke, or you have a high risk for heart attack or stroke.
Do you need to take medicine? That depends. The decision to use medicine to treat high cholesterol is usually based on your cholesterol goal, LDL level, and your risk for heart attack and stroke.
Medicine is always used along with a diet and exercise plan, not instead of it.
- Some people can try diet and exercise for at least 3 months before they decide if they need medicines.
- People who have coronary artery disease (CAD) should start taking medicines right away.
- You may also need to start on medicine right away if your cholesterol is very high or you have:
- A family history of early CAD.
- An inherited form of high cholesterol.
- Peripheral arterial disease.
- Diabetes.
- High blood pressure.
- Had a heart attack or stroke before.
You and your doctor will decide if you will take medicine for high cholesterol.

Medicine choices
The following medicines can be used to lower LDL and triglyceride levels in the blood and to raise HDL.
- Statins
- Bile acid sequestrants
- Cholesterol absorption inhibitors
- Nicotinic acid (niacin)
- Fibric acid derivatives
Take your medicines properly
Some people find it hard to take their medicines properly. If you do take medicine, it is important to use it the right way.
Some people don't see why they should take medicines every day when they don't feel sick. High cholesterol doesn't make you feel sick. But it's important to treat it, because it damages your blood vessels and eventually your heart, even though you don't have symptoms.
Some side effects are more likely and may be worse when you use higher doses of statins. If you're having side effects, tell your doctor. You may be able to take a different medicine or a different dose.
For more information, see:
Be sure to tell your doctor everything you take for high cholesterol, even herbs or other supplements or treatments. Sometimes they can interact with other medicines and cause problems.
If you have trouble taking your medicine for any reason, talk to your doctor.
Other Treatment
Some plant products can help lower high cholesterol. But don't use them to replace your doctor's treatment. Whether or not you use such products, be sure to continue your diet, exercise, and prescription medicines.
As with any new form of treatment, make sure to talk with your doctor first. This is especially important if you take statins. Combining statins and some supplements can cause dangerous side effects.
Psyllium is an ingredient in some dietary supplements—Metamucil, for example. It's a fiber from fleawort and plantago seeds.
Doctors aren't sure how it helps cholesterol levels. It may make the small intestine absorb less cholesterol, so less of it enters your blood.
Psyllium is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The main side effect is increased bowel movements. Products containing psyllium aren't recommended to replace foods as a source of fiber.
Sterol or stanol esters
Sterol and stanol esters are used in cholesterol-lowering margarine spreads.
Sterol esters might limit how much cholesterol the small intestine can absorb. Cholesterol-lowering margarines can help lower cholesterol levels, particularly in people who have high cholesterol levels or who consume too much fat in their diets. These margarines are used along with a healthy diet to lower cholesterol.
Red yeast rice
Red yeast rice contains a natural form of lovastatin, a statin medicine. This supplement may keep your body from producing too much cholesterol. But this supplement can cause dangerous side effects.
Talk to your doctor before you try red yeast rice. Serious side effects include rhabdomyolysis and hepatitis. Red yeast rice is not regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), so you cannot be sure of the amount of red yeast in a supplement. This means you cannot be sure of its dose and safety.
If you take red yeast rice, call your doctor right away if you have a bad reaction to it such as severe muscle pain or symptoms of hepatitis.
Do not take red yeast supplements if you are taking statins. Combining them can cause dangerous side effects.
Not recommended for lowering cholesterol
- Coenzyme Q10. This supplement does not lower cholesterol.
- Fish oil supplements. Fish oil supplements do not lower cholesterol. But eating fish is a part of a heart-healthy diet.
- Garlic. Eating lots of garlic or taking garlic supplements does not effectively lower cholesterol. And eating too much garlic can have side effects, including allergic reaction, gas, heartburn, garlic odor from the skin, interference with some drugs, and longer blood-clotting time.
- Policosanol. Policosanol, which is made from sugar cane, hasn't been shown to lower cholesterol.2
- Very low-fat diets. Although very low-fat diets may indeed lower cholesterol levels, they are not recommended. Very low-fat diets usually allow less than 15% of total calories from fat. In comparison, a cholesterol-reducing diet allows 25% to 35% of calories to come from total fat, with 7% from saturated fat. A diet with less than 25% of its calories from fat can increase triglycerides and decrease HDL (good) cholesterol. Such a diet may deplete your body of other important nutrients and vitamins.

Could you check out my suggestion on the Wiki:Community Noticeboard community noticeboard? Boomer8 (talk) 05:06, June 9, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Jonny, I was thinking you should lock the Grand Tourer page, so people stop with the dumb Khamelion speculations.. Ciao Instulent (talk) 09:23, June 12, 2013 (UTC)
- It's worth considering but I'll se if it persists. If it does, then I will lock it. JBanton (Talk | Contribs)
- Just put it out of it's misery... It will save you a headache, that's for sure xD Instulent (talk) 09:26, June 12, 2013 (UTC)
Watch Dogs
Yo, JB. Since we're goin' to add the Watch Dogs Wiki to the affiliates section and you're also the Admin over there, may I create a proper logo? With the "Wiki" written next to it?Dodo8 Talk
- Already done it. It has the correct size, you just have to upload it.
- So it was you who was the good one with manipulating images and that kind of aesthetic stuff. You're much better than me, that's for sure. I might have a go myself and see if I'm any good. Do you think you could get the "wiki" part with the same font as the top line? JBanton (Talk | Contribs) 16:52, June 13, 2013 (UTC)
Grand Tourer
Hi again. What do you think about the back of the Grand Tourer? I personally think it looks like an BMW, but I could not say which one.Dodo8 Talk
- I think it looks very much like a Maserati GranTurismo, mostly because of the rear lights, lower bumper shape and position of exhaust tips. JBanton (Talk | Contribs) 14:57, June 14, 2013 (UTC)
Whoah, Jonny you need to calm. You're an admin for some reasons, one of them is remaining calm and either ignore or calmly but firmly reply to someone you think is disrespecting you.
But Jonny, the truth is your first reply wasn't that friendly...
As for the Khamelion page, I suggest locking it up and throwing the key down (locking it for quite some time, perhaps until GTA V's release). I'm thinking about how we should lock it: no unregistered/new users or admins only?
Mikey Klebbitz (talk) 20:43, June 14, 2013 (UTC)
When locking pages, it's always best to try locking it for new and unregistered users to see if that works, and save admin-only for a last resort. Jeff (talk|stalk) 01:19, June 15, 2013 (UTC)
- OK, thanks Jeff.
- Mikey Klebbitz (talk) 10:38, June 15, 2013 (UTC)
Lock page
Can you lock Grand Tourer page? People are saying that this is Khamelion. (Reply on your talk page, not mine)

|TRON: Uprising
Keller is a minor character in TRON: Uprising.
Keller, a scientist, developed a mind-control technique for General Tesler, incorporating the effects of a haze of pathogenic code together with signals from a tall tower. When Tesler used the technique to brainwash programs to worship Clu, Keller told him she'd created the code to give programs freedom and wanted out, but he informed her that she would either complete the technique or be derezzed, and assigned Pavel to ensure her compliance. Pavel scoffed at her science, which he did not understand, but suggested that they celebrate together as programs in Argon Square fell under the influence of the gas. Keller disdainfully retorted that she'd have to be under the influence of the pathogen, and Pavel said that that could be arranged.
When Beck, in his guise as the renegade, broke into the airship from which the viral haze was spreading, Keller used Pavel's light staff to knock him out, saying that she'd really needed to do that. She escaped as the airship crashed into the signal tower, ending the effects of her virus on the population. On the run after Tesler put a price on her head, she stopped in a light rail station and used an injection to change her surface render to that of a male program, creating a disguise with which to escape detection.
- Keller may be named after Sister Mary Kenneth Keller, the first American woman to earn a PhD in Computer Science, one of the developers of BASIC, and founder of the computer science department at Clarke College in Iowa, which she directed for twenty years.
- Keller is the first character in the TRON franchise to undergo an apparent change of gender.

Wet roads and freezing temperatures can mean treacherous roads, but pre-treating them proved tricky again for D.O.T. crews.
D.O.T. crews in Craven County say the rain before the snow is what causes the problem because the rain washes off anything they put on the roads and when it does snow and temperatures drop below freezing, bridges and overpasses can turn into a sheet of ice.
That's what happened last month in New Bern when rain that fell ended up freezing and there were 30 accidents on the Twin Rivers Bridge.
Crews in Craven County said Saturday they did pre-treat bridges and overpasses with brine and then monitored them so they could put down salt right before they would freeze.
In Pitt County, the game plan was much the same. Crews there told us they wanted to stay ahead of the storm and treated bridges and overpasses first.

Mimer SQL Idents
An ident is an authorization-ID used to identify different kinds of users in a Mimer SQL database.
There are four kinds of ident in Mimer SQL: USER, OS_USER, PROGRAM and GROUP.
Idents connect to a database through the CONNECT statement and the ENTER statement is used to take up the privileges provided by a PROGRAM ident (see below).
Every USER and PROGRAM ident has a unique ident name and a private password which must be correctly supplied to the CONNECT or ENTER statement in application programs.
An OS_USER ident may access the database without explicitly providing a user name or password on condition that the user name for the user currently logged in to the operating system correspond to the definition of the OS_USER in the Mimer SQL database.
USER idents are authorized to connect to a Mimer SQL database, by using the CONNECT statement in an application program or by entering the correct ident name and password in an interactive environment.
Any privileges a USER ident holds may be exercised once the ident has logged on. USER idents are generally associated with specific physical individuals authorized to connect to the database.
OS_USER is an ident type that allows the user currently logged in to the operating system to connect to a Mimer SQL database without providing a username or password.
If an OS_USER ident is defined with a password in Mimer SQL, the ident may connect to Mimer SQL in the same way as any other USER ident (i.e. by providing a user name and password). An OS_USER ident is subject to the same access restrictions as any other USER ident.
PROGRAM idents provide specific privileges required when executing certain operations. PROGRAM idents may not initiate a connection to a Mimer SQL database, but may be entered from within an application program or interactive environment by using the ENTER statement.
A connection should have been established before the ENTER statement is used, see Connecting to a Database. Entering a PROGRAM ident is analogous to logging on as a USER ident, in that the PROGRAM ident gains access to the system and any privileges the ident holds become applicable.
PROGRAM idents are generally associated with specific functions within the system, not with physical individuals.
GROUP idents are collective identities that provide common privileges for groups of users or PROGRAM idents.
Any privileges granted to or revoked from a GROUP ident automatically apply to all members of the group.
Any ident can be a member of as many groups as required, and one group can include any number of members.
GROUP idents provide a facility for organizing the privilege structure in the database system.

May I inquire what scandal you speak of???
why yes you may my good Lady *gives a gentelmen's bow & kisses back of gloved hand*.
It would appear that certain scoundrals commited a dastardly deed by absconding away with all of the best buy exclusives that were to have been ment for the public. Only a poltury 5 per store were alotted to each Best Buy & the store employees (being the Cads they are) bought & or stole ALL OF THEM!!!!!!!! My BB connection informed me that TDK figures of Batman & Joker NEVER EVEN MADE IT TO THE SHELVES!!!
I say!! not very sporting of them now is it?
Posted 31 January 2009 - 08:50 PM
Luckily for me, the Best Buy employees are the San Marcos Best Buy are good people!!
Posted 31 January 2009 - 10:45 PM
i wish i would have known that people here wanted them, or anyone wanted them for that matter. i could have picked them up for people. i would have got one but the figures looked like utter crap and just inflated the price of the movie.
weren't the figures already released by themselves? i thought they were. either way i wouldnt feel bad since the included figures are usually never much more that little statues.
this wonder woman toy looks like the same thing, just like the green lantern lilimited toy that came with the final frontier.

Also I am guessing the GL movie is going to be cartoon based? This doesn't excite me as it should, at this stage of the game Warner Bros and DC should be focused on bringing GL to the BIG SCREEN. It's time to really invest in these franchises and make history. Here are some live action DC movies that can be made big and small budget
Another Superman movie
Batman of course
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern
Shazam - The Rock was rumored to play Black Adam, perfect with his smug look.
The New Gods
The Flash
Doom Patrol
The Question
Teen Titans - very kid friendly but something adults would appreciate big time!
Posted 02 February 2009 - 11:26 AM
But I do agree WB & DC are draging their feet. But with the release of WW on dvd that should serve as a good test market for the major motion picture. Like I kinda get the feeling that in the animated dvd WW will not be spinning in to her WW costume. & if that's true you can expect to hear my b*tch about it in the forum because I want my two cents heard about what I want in a WW movie.

On night 25, the Tikiano tribe returns from Tribal Council where Jay was just voted out. Troyzan is not happy that Jay is gone and feels like he will be voted out next. Troyzan thought Christina was on his side, so he asks her if she ever was. As she tries to explain why she didn't vote with him, Alicia says, "Don't attack her.†Troyzan doesn't appreciate Alicia interrupting his conversation and loudly insists that he is just asking a question. Alicia vents, "Troy is definitely digging himself in a bigger hole. He's attacking everybody else and then trying to cop an attitude with me.†Troyzan admits that he is angry about being outside of the women's power alliance. He plans on winning the remaining immunity challenges, so he will be protected from their vote. Troyzan reveals, "This is no team anymore. I'm no team player. This is just Troyzan versus everybody else.â€
The next morning, Troyzan tells Chelsea that there are at least three or four people in the tribe that should be voted out before him. Chelsea tries to explain to him that it is not personal and just part of the game. Troyzan plans on fighting his way to the end and not just taking it calmly like the women in his tribe are asking him to do. Troyzan explains, "I have the right to be angry.†Chelsea recommends that Troyzan "take it like a manâ€, the way that Jonas did when he was voted out. Troyzan feels that this is typical behavior by women, where they use men and then toss you out. Next, Troyzan and Tarzan bring tree mail into camp. Each castaway gets an envelope containing $500 and is invited to an auction. While everyone else is looking forward to buying food, Troyzan hopes to buy something, which will help him get further in the game.
The Tikiano tribe arrives at the challenge and takes a seat on the bleachers. Jeff Probst, the host, explains that the bidding is in increments of $20 and that they cannot pool their money or share their items. The first item up for bid is three huge donuts accompanied by a cup of iced coffee. Kim and Chelsea each bid for the item. Chelsea ends up getting it for $160. The next item is a plate of chips and guacamole with a margarita. Alicia, Kat and Sabrina all bid for it. Sabrina wins the auction with a bid of $400. Next, Leif buys a protein shake for $100. Kim buys a SURVIVOR shower with shampoo, soap and toothbrush for just $40. Kat buys a BLT sandwich with chips and ice tea for $180. Kim bids $240 and wins a bowl of peanut butter and chocolate, while still taking a shower. Next, Jeff brings out letters from loved ones. Alicia immediately bids the maximum amount of $500 to get her letters. She opens the first letter, which is from her dad and reads it out loud. This brings tears to everyone's eyes, as they think about their own loved ones. Since Alicia set the price at $500, Jeff offers letters to everyone at the same price. So, Tarzan buys his letters, even though he was hoping to save the $500 to get new shocks for his car at home. The next item Jeff offers is an advantage in the next immunity challenge. Troyzan starts the bid at $300. Chelsea, Kat and Sabrina encourage Christina to bid for the item, since she still has all her money. So Christina bids $360. They continue to outbid each other, until Troyzan bids $420 and Christina lets him have it. Troyzan is so happy to get something, which will likely help him win the immunity challenge. As Troyzan goes up to pay for his item, he slams his fist down on the table in front of Jeff. He explains to Jeff that it is now the tribe versus him, as shown by everyone encouraging Christina to outbid him. The last item was sold to Kat for $160. It was a cake that she had to share with the tribe and they had only sixty seconds to consume it. So, the auction ends with the Tikiano tribe stuffing their faces with cake.
DON'T MESS WITH TROYZAN
Troyzan opens the immunity challenge advantage that he purchased at the auction when he gets back to camp. It tells him that he gets to skip the first stage of the next immunity challenge increasing his odds of winning from 1 in 9 to 1 in 4. Troyzan is happy to have this advantage, since he feels that he has to win the next challenge to stay in the game. He comments, "You cannot mess with Troyzan.†Since Troyzan used his hidden immunity idol at the last Tribal Council, he decides to look for a new one in front of everybody. He explains, "You put fear in people's hearts and you can scramble them a little bit.†As Troyzan searches around all the trees in camp for another idol, the women watch him closely. Kim recommends that they all search for the idol, since eight people have a better chance of finding it than just one does. Chelsea feels Troyzan's recent behavior and the fact that he is a threat in the game have made him their next target. She comments, "Right now, Troy is going to put more heart in this game, than most of the people here.†Meanwhile, Troyzan continues searching for the hidden immunity idol. He notices that Kim is looking at him, so he pretends to put something in his pant's pocket. Troyzan reveals, "I want them to think that I got it.†The women do notice that Troyzan is acting cocky and may have found an idol. Kim is worried that Troyzan may win immunity and also have the hidden immunity idol. She knows that Troyzan is very capable and smart. Kim vents, "Hopefully we can get rid of him, before he does something too crazy that sends me home.â€
The Tikiano tribe arrives on their mat. Jeff Probst takes back the individual immunity necklace from Chelsea. He then explains the rules of this individual immunity challenge, which consists of challenges they have done before. In the first round, they will race to untangle knotted ropes. The first four to finish will move onto the next round, where they will race up a stack of crates and then bounce a coconut off a trampoline attempting to knock out their targets. The first two will move onto the final round where they will use a slingshot to fire coconuts at a wall of targets. The first person to knock out three targets in a row wins immunity and is guaranteed a one in eight shot at winning this game. One of the losers will be voted out at Tribal Council. Jeff has Troyzan read the advantage that he purchased at the auction out loud to let his tribe mates know that he automatically advances to the second round. In the first round, everyone except Troyzan competes to untie the rope and free the ring at the top. Tarzan, Kim and Christina finish this first round before the others and move onto the second round with Troyzan. In the second round, Tarzan and Troyzan knock out their three targets with coconuts before the others, therefore advancing them to the final round. As he moves on to the final round, Tarzan says, "This is my island. You can't beat me.†In a very close final round, Troyzan pulls it out and wins individual immunity. As he goes over to Jeff to get his immunity necklace, he tells the tribe, "Don't F with me.†The rest of the Tikiano tribe does not appreciate Troyzan's attitude. He does not apologize, but tells them it is his competitive nature.
After Tikiano gets back to camp from the challenge, Tarzan gives Troyzan some advice. He says, "If you win be noble. It looks bad.†Troyzan explains that he is feeling frustrated because everyone is against him and he is highly competitive. Troyzan is so happy to have won the immunity challenge. He knows he is now safe, but the rest of Tikiano has to scramble and be paranoid. He comments, "This is like their worst case scenario.†Chelsea and Kim talk about the vote. They don't want to vote out a girl. Chelsea explains, "I think if we were to take a girl out right now, it would do nothing but create chaos and paranoia and that's the last think we need right now. So they know that they have to vote out Leif or Tarzan. Meanwhile, Leif and Tarzan are in the water washing paint off Leif's face that he had put there before the challenge. Leif asks Tarzan if he is the next one to get voted out. Tarzan tells him that nobody is talking to him about it. Tarzan wishes that he had beat Troyzan today in the challenge, so that he would be safe from the vote. Troyzan then starts work on his plan. He wants to get Alicia, Christina, Tarzan and Leif to join with him to vote out Kim. Troyzan plans on telling them, "You are on the bottom. So like, if you're smart, come along with me and we'd have five votes and we'd vote out Kim.†He then shares his strategy with Leif, Tarzan, Alicia and Christina and encourages them to vote with him tonight, so that they can take control of the game and vote out Kim, Chelsea, Sabrina and Kat. They all listen to his plan. Alicia admits, "Troy is on to something.†She realizes that if Troyzan continues to win all the individual immunity challenges, then she wants to be on his side versus against him, so that he will take her to the end with him. As Tikiano walks out to Tribal Council, Troyzan hopes that he has talked the others into following his plan.
Troyzan tries to explain his recent aggressive behavior towards the women by saying, "That's just my competitive juices coming out and that's just the way that I play.†Sabrina agrees that he a great competitor, but is disturbed by Troyzan's recent actions and attitude. She then cautions Troyzan that in order to win, "You have to be somewhat likable.†Troyzan does not appreciate Sabrina telling him what to do. The rest of the Tikiano tribe, the jury members and Jeff just sit back and listen to Sabrina and Troyzan go back on forth on this subject. Troyzan once again lays out his idea to have Tarzan, Leif, Christina, Alicia and himself join together tonight to take control of the game and vote out Kim. He points out that this would bring down the power alliance of Kim, Chelsea, Sabrina and Kat. Christina admits that Troyzan has an interesting proposition, but is not sure if he can be trusted. Alicia is not sure if now is the right time to make such a big move and switch alliances. The tribe then votes. Jeff then reveals all nine votes, which are two votes for Kim, three votes for Tarzan and four votes for Leif. So, Leif Manson, the 27-year-old phlebotomist, from San Diego, CA, becomes the tenth person to voted out of SURVIVOR: ONE WORLD and the fourth person to join the jury.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (AP) -- A member of Asheville's city council is proposing a ban on holding gun shows at publicly owned buildings.
The Asheville Citizen-Times reports that Councilman Cecil Bothwell said Tuesday he's interested in the idea in the wake of a shooting that killed 26 people, including 20 children, at a Connecticut school.
Asheville already has an ordinance prohibiting the possession of firearms on city-owned property. But gun shows have regularly been held at a city-owned agricultural center and U.S. Cellular Center downtown. One is scheduled at the agricultural center this coming weekend.
Bothwell says the law is clear and that the city should do whatever it can to stem gun violence.

I saw the Avengers the other night - and it was fantastic, of course! - but every time I see Scarlett Johansson now I am struck by how much she has changed. Her sexiness and sultriness is laid bare now, which, I guess, is fine. She's older and more grown up and that's just the way it happens. But what I loved about this film - and this time in her career, see also Scarlett Johansson in In Good Company and The Girl With A Pearl Earring - was that it captured her when her beauty was almost painful. She was so young - and she looked like that - and Sofia Coppola let her radiate that inimitable, ineffable, can't-get-enough-of-it va-va-voom that she just seems to oozes without any pomp or ceremony at all. It's not like it's the change from Norma Jean to Marilyn Monroe here. Scarlett Johansson always had it. It was always there. She just used to wear baggy jeans and oversized baseball tees and let the mind conjure up the rest.
Her wardrobe in Lost in Translation is great. Big cosy sweaters, Paddington bear coats, daggy oxfords with hipster pants and hoodie sweatshirts. It was simple but comfortable, easy but still eye-catching. Everything that Sofia Coppola is about, really. Everything that travel should be about. I've always wanted to have a holiday that is like this. Staying in a nice hotel, lounging about for a few days in hoodies and araks lingerie, and wandering about the city, in and out of the hotel, in and out of restaurants, in and out of train stations, in an out of shops without really worrying too much about what is going to happen. Holidays are rarely about this, only in an ideal world with lots of money, but I would love to have one of these 'nothing' holidays soon. My friend just got back from Japan and although she managed to pack a few more things into her holiday than just lazing about in hotel rooms, she had the best time, and she just enjoyed herself, and she didn't worry about anything, which is how holidays ought to be, but rarely are.

I think they actually have parked him... It sounds like they have according to what Ingrid is saying on twitter
Don't Be A Lemon, Be A Rosebud!
Gordon was fined $100,000 and docked 25 points. Haven't heard anything about being parked or probation yet.
LinkCHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon avoided suspension Monday when NASCAR instead fined him $100,000 and docked him 25 points for intentionally wrecking Clint Bowyer at Phoenix International Raceway.
Gordon was also placed on probation through Dec. 31. But he'll be allowed to close out the season Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway despite his actions in Sunday's race, which triggered a fight in the garage area between the two crews.
Pretty much a slap on the wrist. I don't really understand why the probation ends on December 31st when the season is over after next weekend. Probation lengths should be # of races instead of days imo.
Congrats to Brad and his team. They deserved it. I hate that circumstances fell apart for the 48 in the last two weeks. Seems like 2010 when Denny lost. Congrats NYM for the 24's win. Maybe he'll get to 100.

- Tailoring plasmonic field enhancement in spatial and spectral domains
- Author(s)
- Juodkazis, Saulius; Rosa, Lorenzo; Gervinskas, Gediminas; Brasselet, Etienne
- Abstract
- Three-dimensional patterning of gold nano-particles on SiO 2 and Si substrates is performed by ion-beam lithography with 15-20 nm resolution. Realization of an on-demand achiral and chiral modifications of nano-structures are demonstrated. Simulations of optical properties of the obtained nano-architectures reveal the possibility to tailor the field enhancement both in the spatial and spectral domains, which are foreseen to be applicable for light harvesting and opto-mechanics at nanoscale.

Developing a MVC Component/Basic backend
From Joomla! Documentation
Items to be adding/changed on this page:
Note that if using core J! javascript in a form, id="adminForm" must also be included.
Shouldn't references to $db->getDBO() be changed to $db->getDbo() ?
And what is this comment referring to? "The _populateState method is, by default, automatically called when a state is read by the getState method."
Radiant tech 06:37, 1 September 2011 (CDT)
Admin Forms in J2.5
Aparently, for the JToolbar Icons to work properly in J2.5, the form elements need the id "adminForm" to be assigned to them. I changed this in admin/views/helloworlds/tmpl/default.php. However, it also needs to be changed in the packages...
The function declaration has been changed from
public function display($cachable=false)
public function display($cachable=false,$urlparams=false)
How to access backend component & task icons not displaying
The tutorial is unclear on how to access the backend component. I believe it would be helpful to explain that the component can be accessed in 2 ways:
1) URL e.g. http://localhost/joomla/administrator/index.php?option=com_helloworld
2) The "hello-world" menu item under "Components" of the Administration application
I believe it would also be helpful to note that this component only does 2 things:
a) lists the two options stored in the database: id 1 (Hello World!) and id2 (Good bye World!)
b) allows us to use checkboxes to select one or both options before selecting a task from the toolbar
But this model does not give us a toolbar (i.e. the toolbar is empty without icons) so that we can not do anything with the option item(s) we select. So I can "check" id 1 (Hello World!) and/or id2 (Good bye World!), but then cannot "Delete" them or "Edit" them since there are no task icons.
It was also not clear to me that the option items we create with this backend component are the options that will then be available in the "Required Settings" section when Editing a Menu Item. i.e. when I add a Menu Item and select "Menu Item Type": "COM_HELLOWORLD_HELLOWORLD_VIEW_DEFAULT_TITLE" (part 06 site component), the "Required Settings" drop-down box will contain the options that were created/edited with this backend component (well, at least that WILL be the case when we have a toolbar that gives us a "New" and "Delete" task icons which Part 09 shows us how to do) SAbboushi 6/25/2012
I'm not sure on how to add to the discussion.
The weird comment here about _populateState() seems to be the introduction to a paragraph about this method; from my understanding, what it will do is be able to select specific fields, limits, additional where clauses,etc (Say, I want this table to display things only from a specific category - that should be done with populate state, it seems).
Taken from com_content/site/models/articles.php if you were wondering,that's what i can read there.

We'll meet an artist who goes deep for inspiration... he SCUBA's!
We'll be at Annapolis to meet the top Midshipman at the US Naval Academy--Yarmouth's Jonathan Poole. And interested in Downtown Abbey? We'll learn the story of Countess Catherine Tredick Wendall, a Maine born woman who actually lived in Highclere Castle.
Show number: 2012-18
Original air date: November 17, 2012
This week's blog written by Bill Green:
Our first part tonight is with an interesting artist name Rick Carney. He SCUBA's and uses pieces that he finds on the bottom of our lakes, rivers and oceans in his art. He might put together a piece of stained glass or a lamp using broken glass. His art is unique, whimsical and fun. To find out more about his business, go to the Sea Glass of Maine website below.
Our second part is with the Brigade Commander at the U. S. Naval Academy, Jonathan Poole of Yarmouth. John was chosen as the top overall Midshipman based on overall academic and military capabilities. He is a top scholar and a finalist for Rhodes, Marshall and Mitchell scholarships. It's an amazing accomplish for anyone, perhaps especially so for Jon, who was not a top student in high school or his first college stop. He finished in the top quarter of his class at Yarmouth. He went to Trinity College in Hartford where it wasn't going great. He decided he wanted something more, the discipline that is offered at a service academy. He certainly found a home at Navy.
Our archive piece tonight is a Green Outdoors done earlier this month. Jeff Malloy of Palermo was injured in a fall from a ladder and he though his outdoor days were over. However, with the help of a friend named Ray Kimball, he put together the Equalizer Adaptive Shooting System. This enables to hunters with disabilities to hunt again. Jeff proved it by shooting a four-point buck last year. For more information about Jeff's system, click on the link.
My favorite TV show bar none is Downton Abbey, a PBS Masterpiece Classic. It follows the lives of a wealthy family which lives in the Abbey. The series is filmed at Highclere Castle. In real life, the Countess who lived at Highclere was Anne Catherine Tredick Wendell who was born in Kittery and spent her childhood summers in the Portsmouth area. The real life story of the Castle is as interesting as the TV drama. If you're not watching Downton, you're missing a really fun show. We can't stream this story due to rights resctrictions so we hope yo tune in to see it.
Infor on the real castle where they shoot the show can be found here: http://www.highclerecastle.co.uk/
The exhibit in Portsmouth, New Hampshire was only in 2012. It was put on by the Portsmouth Athenaeum. for more info on the Portsmouth Athenaeum:

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

Everyone sayz that haha
I got seriously ticked off with Sasuke because he was so epic at first and now he's all hateful.
I'm pissed at Kabuto because when he was first introduced, i loved the guy.
Then i found out he was a spy...
Then i found out he was a really messed up spy...
And then he totally went insane with the Orochimaru thing and his identity issues...
At first i thought he was able to come back again as a good guy but now he is beyond reach.
the two elders
i hate sakura... Im also starting to dislike nagato not because of his character but because of all his annoying fanboys that overrate him saying he is stronger than hashirama and madara.
i hate madara because of his stupid fanboys who keep putting him always on TOP
another reason why i hate this Fodder is because he got his ass kicked along with his pathetic EMS and kyubi bu hashirama alone
and he still think he is a badass becayse he is an EDO and use hashirama powers lol
also hate this Fodder because he enjoy riding hashirama ****
my 2nd hated character is itachi because of his fanboys think he is superman
but in FACT he is one of the weakest character if u speak about chakra level
also he is kinda gay and emo and he killed his innocent mom and his ****ed up fanboys think he is a hero for killing children and his mom and dad !!
sasori because he is my favorite character
Madara but his trait only, Kabuto for all his actions, Orochimaru, Deidara, Danzo and Sasuke's emotional side.
I dislike Kabuto and Madara (EDO) All have a fanbase built around fanboys
Stay healthy
If I had a dollar for every time someone wrongly used: gay, emo, or useless on this forum I'd have enough money to pay Bill Gates to wipe my ass.
Everyone. But I hate some character's less ^_~
For example Minato :3
