He Needs a New Home
Hello all,
Sadly, my first post on your wonderful forum is a bit of an unfortunate one!
I'll soon be looking for a new home for my mother's 2 year old Golden Retriever. I've just sent off an email to his breeder, and I'm hoping to hear back from her soon, but in the mean while, I was hoping to get some advice from any rescuers out there.
Without getting into the situation in detail, I need to know what rescues assess for when they are placing a dog. What kind of home assessment is done? What kind of families are considered?
My mom purchased this dog on a bit of a (emotional) whim and I knew at the time that it was a bad idea, but she swore up and down that she would do what it took to take care of him properly. Long story short, she now has a 2 year old, unaltered, poorly trained, dog-aggressive, adult GR that she cannot handle.
Also, the reason *I* am posting here, is because the dog is currently with me (for a couple of reasons, that I don't really need to get into at the moment), but he can't stay here for a variety of reasons, but being here short term (hopefully until I can find him a home), is better then where he was.
I know that this dog will need a lot of work. He understands the basics, and is VERY praise driven, but loses concentration easily. Also, my mom's husband has been quite heavy handed with him as far as "corrections" go, so he's not used to doing something for the joy of pleasing his human.
I'm hoping for the best situation and that the breeder has a plan, but I'd like to have a plan B for him. He really is a very sweet dog, and I only want the best for him.
Much appreciation for any help/tips.

Matt, I commend you for stepping in on the dog's behalf, and also for contacting the breeder. Maybe you could network with a few dog trainers in your area who teach classes, explain your dilema, and they will know of someone looking for either a golden or a project dog?

Thank you for suggesting the rescue. I had looked up their information, but wasn't sure about contacting them, as I'm not actually looking to give him up to rescue just yet until I hear back from his breeder. Also, I'd hate to surrender him to rescue, knowing that they have their hands so full of other dogs and I'm willing to keep him for a while until something better happens.
I emailed the rescue and they've already gotten back to me.
We're trying to arrange a time to speak over the phone about Lochlann a little more in detail!
Thanks again!

I'm certain the rescue would do a wonderful job.
If I don't hear from the breeder, I'm hoping the rescue will post Lochlann on their site for me as a favour and help me sift through potential homes!

Please know that Golden Rescue is happy to talk to you about your situation and even recommend trainers and behaviour specialist in your area. If you need them to assist you with rehoming your Golden they are a great bunch of people who are very kind and would find the perfect home for him.
Keep us posted on your progress

Thanks for doing right by this pup. Many people come onto GRF looking for a dog, so you might just hear from someone on here as well. Good luck!

I just spoke with a very nice woman from Golden Rescue.
We had a great conversation about Lochlann and his current situation.
I've decided that I'll give his breeder over the weekend to respond to my email. If I don't hear back from her, I'm calling her on Monday. If she doesn't want him back, Golden Rescue has said they are more then happy to do an intake with him, properly assess him, vet him and find him a home.
I have a huge sense of relief!
I promise to keep you updated.

2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Intro
Faced with compiling a list of 2012's Coolest sports cars, one must first contemplate the question perplexing kids in their early teens, (and many fully grown adults besides). Just what, exactly, is cool? One of (if not the) most subjective questions anyone can attempt to answer; the fact is cool is pretty much self-defining because cool means something different to different people.
After all, cool—like style—resides in the eye of the beholder.
With that said, when it comes to sports cars, we're going to define cool as a car that goes its own path—but is universally accepted to possess exceptional capabilities although it may not necessarily be universally loved. While some people may like a given car on this list of coolest sports cars and some people may not—everyone who knows anything about cars will respect each sports car on the list.
In other words, we fully expect a significant polarization effect. When it comes to each individual sports car on our list of the coolest sports cars for 2012, whether you may love each of them, or you may hate each of them, the odds are strong you will have some sort of an emotional response to them.
And yes, many of you will be upset to find sports cars you think are very cool have been omitted from the list. For example, we know right off the bat many of you will question why the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Supersport—the world's fastest production sports car—is not on the list of the coolest sports cars. The hot new Lamborghini Aventador, the company's meanest rampaging bull, was left in the garage as well.
Well, just being the best at something doesn't automatically make you cool.
It gives you notoriety—sure.
But cool?
That's something else altogether.
What follows is our list of the coolest sports cars for 2012.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Aston Martin DBS
Yes, Aston's association with the mystique of James Bond film does add a certain cachet to the marque. However, Aston Martin also has a history of racing successes stretching back into to time before World War II. In fact in 1922—its first year of racing—Aston Martin's cars broke 10 world records. Today's Aston Martin DBS road car delivers deft blending of handcrafted exclusivity, hedonistically palatial luxury, exceptionally strong performance, and…well…just look at the thing. Few cars are as beautiful as the Aston Martin DBS. Fewer still strike all the chords the car does while still feeling relevant to the vast majority of the motoring public, which is what makes the Aston Martin DBS one of the coolest sports cars of 2012.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Audi R8
From our perspective, the mid-engine Audi exotic sports car makes the list of cool sports cars over its relatives from Lamborghini and Bugatti because it manages to be simultaneously exotic and understated. When you see an R8 on the street, it look special—absolutely, but it also looks, well, normal too. We like the fact the R8 is both extroverted and unobtrusive. In fact, driving the R8 under normal circumstances feels like driving any other Audi product. But when you let it all the way out, you get supercar levels of performance too. Similarly, when you drive it around town, people see it and appreciate it for what it is, but you won't come off all hairy chested with gold chains dangling the way you would in the Lamborghini, or the Bugatti. In other words, the Audi has a quiet sophistication, and that's always cool.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: BMW Z4
The only two-seat sports car from the company that touts itself as building the ultimate driving machine has a very strong cool factor. First of all, while everyone will agree the car has presence, some people think the Z4 ugly, others think it beautiful. Bottom line, there is no consensus on its appearance, although everyone will agree the BMW Z4 looks special (Bless its heart…) Along with the BMW's broad range of performance capabilities, the folding-hardtop of the Z4 also offers its owner a coupe and a convertible experience in the same package. So, you get BMW cachet, strong performance, an abundance of presence and versatility, all of which land the 2012 BMW Z4 smoothly on our list of cool sports cars for 2012.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is the single most capable sports car ever produced by a volume American manufacturer—period. Which, this is super-cool in and of itself. Fold in the near universal appeal the Corvette is blessed with and you'll get something altogether special in the Corvette ZR1. The car came about because former GM president Rick Wagoner, after seeing how capable the Corvette was at its standard price point, asked the Corvette team what they could do if the price point was $100,000. The result: 638 horsepower, 604 ft-lbs of torque, 3.4 seconds to 60, 205 mph top speed, and 14 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the hwy. To be able to get all of that for $111,000 absolutely makes for one of the coolest sports cars of all time.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Ferrari California
While the mid-engine 458 Italia, the F12berlinetta and the 599 GTO may get all the love from rabid sports car fans, true arbiters of cool know the Ferrari California has all the cool points, along with enough of the legendary Ferrari performance capability and good looks to be the one Ferrari we chose for our list of the coolest sports cars for 2012. The Ferrari California can go open or closed thanks to its folding hardtop and it screams like a Ferrari should, both in terms of its appearance and what happens when you run its engine to redline. Further, while it's the least costly Ferrari model, it still has the "Made In Maranello" vibe that is so highly coveted.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Jaguar XKR-S
Finally freed from the shadow of Aston Martin, now that both marques are out of Ford's Premier Automotive Group, we're starting to see the true levels of performance Jaguar's engineers are capable of unleashing in their cars. The Jaguar XKR-S is the current ultimate iteration of the achingly beautiful Jaguar XK, one of the most well rounded sports cars ever conceived. In fact, all it was missing was power, because it wasn't permitted to challenge Aston Martin's more expensive sports cars when the two brands resided under the same corporate flag. Jaguar's on its own now though, and the XKR-S makes 550 horsepower and 502 ft-lbs of torque. And the car is on this list of cool sports cars because it demonstrates what can happen when a brand like Jaguar is allowed to do its thing completely unencumbered.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Lexus LFA
We absolutely love it when a car comes along and shatters the preconceptions of what its brand should be about. To earn its place on our list of the coolest sports cars for 2012, the Lexus LFA did exactly that. Even when the Lexus PR machine was leaking the details of the car, few people believed the company would actually offer such a car for sale. It was thought to be a concept car, perhaps presaging the next version of the Lexus SC, which despite its two-seat convertible configuration was about as far from a sports car as it could get. However, the Lexus LFA, rather than being a dream, sprang to life and immediately claimed its place in the hierarchy of ultra-rare exotic sports cars.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
Of course the Mercedes-Benz sports car based on the coolest sports car of all time would make the list of the coolest sports cars of 2012. The SLS AMG's 300 SL Gullwing forebear has long held the motoring enthusiast community's imagination in a vise grip. So when the SLS AMG appeared, looking like a 21st century version of that storied automobile, hearts set to fluttering, jaws set to dropping, and eyes set to bugging all over the world. And that was before they ever heard the 6.3-liter handcrafted V8 fire up. In addition to all of its cachet, the SLS AMG has one of the fiercest exhaust notes you'll ever hear. And yes it has the acceleration, handling, braking and steering to match. It is, after all, a Mercedes-Benz.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: MINI Cooper Roadster John Cooper Works
Yeah, this is the spot the Miata would normally occupy on this list of the coolest sports cars. However, we submit the Miata, while certainly one of the most coveted sports cars, has outlived its cool factor. Meanwhile, MINI, a brand that is all about cool, has gone and plopped a two-seat roadster right in the Miata's lunch box. Yeah, the MINI is front-drive, where the Mazda is rear drive, but the MINI is just as much fun to drive, has an exuberant countenance and, well, just flat screams; "Hey I'm fun, get your butt over here and check me out!" And, if that doesn't make for one cool sports car, we'd like to know what does.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Nissan GT-R
OK, now here's proof a car doesn't have to be good-looking to be overwhelmingly desirable. With its amalgam of divergent lines, a brick-like overall shape and that big-ass wing on its rump, the GT-R looks a lot like the mythical dinosaur from which its nickname was derived—Godzilla. However, if you're really put off by the way the GT-R looks, we submit you should get in one, drive a few miles of challenging road, pull over to the shoulder, get out and look at the Nissan sports car again. We swear; its driving experience will leave you with the impression the 2012 Nissan GT-R is one of the most beautiful cars you ever saw in your life. And, thoroughly deserving of this spot on the list of the coolest sports cars for 2012.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Porsche 911
We recently spent two days driving the new 2012 Porsche 911 400 miles a day over some of the most challenging sports car roads in California. Along the way, we encountered wide-open straights in the middle of nowhere—permitting us to run the new 911 well into triple digit speeds for several miles at a time. There were also many, many miles of extremely tight and twisting stretches of mountain roads where the new 911's braking, steering and road holding capabilities could be used to full advantage. In between, we visited a five-star resort where the valets literally fought among themselves for the honor of parking the Porsche right out front. We cruised busy San Francisco streets where the Porsche tootled comfortably along in urban traffic, and enjoyed the near erotic pleasure of treating the curvaceous 911 to a hand car wash. Through it all, one word kept coming to mind—over and over again—this car is just plain cool.
2012's Coolest Sports Cars
2012's Coolest Sports Cars: Porsche Cayman R
There are cars that make you feel like you're a much better driver than you are, and then there are cars that actually make you a much better driver than you really are. The power, balance and road holding of the Porsche Cayman R somehow manage to do both. There are very few curves on public roads a Cayman R won't take at nearly triple the posted speed. In other words, if the sign suggests 15 miles per hour through a given corner, on dry pavement, a Cayman R will comfortably do it at 45. Yes, we're speaking from personal experience. A lighter, stronger and faster version of the standard Porsche Cayman, yes the Cayman R has a polarizing appearance to be sure. You might also be put off by the fact a radio and A/C are optional. But one good brisk drive, and like us, you'll be of the opinion the 2012 Porsche Cayman R is one very cool sports car.

|Playable races in World of Warcraft e
|Draenei · Dwarf · Gnome · Human · Night elf · Worgen
|Blood elf · Goblin · Orc · Tauren · Troll · Undead
- This article is about the playable gnomes and the Gnomeregan Exiles faction. For general history of the race, see gnome.
The gnomes of Gnomeregan [1] (LoC 66, 71-72, 77) [2] (WoWRPG 17) is the faction of playable gnomes. They start in Gnomeregan, their home city located near Ironforge.
The eccentric, often brilliant gnomes are held as one of the most peculiar races of the world. With their obsession for developing radical new technologies and constructing marvels of mind-bending engineering, it's a wonder that any gnomes have survived to proliferate. Over the years, the gnomes have contributed ingenious weapons to aid the Grand Alliance in its fierce battles against the Horde.
Thriving in the wondrous techno-city of Gnomeregan, the gnomes shared the resources of the forested peaks of Dun Morogh with their dwarven cousins for generations. Yet recently, a barbaric menace rose up from the bowels of the earth and invaded Gnomeregan. The troggs — believed to have been unearthed from the Uldaman excavation – erupted beneath Gnomeregan and began to slaughter every gnome within the city. Though the gnomish defense forces staged a valiant defense, they could not save their wondrous city.
At the command of the High Tinker Mekkatorque, the gnomes opened the pressure valves of their giant, grinding machines and released toxic radiation throughout the city. Though the radiation killed the troggs, the gnomes soon discovered that it killed their own people just as quickly. Nearly eighty percent of the gnomish race died within days. Those that survived evacuated the great city and fled to the protection of their dwarven cousins in Ironforge.
There they remain, devising radical strategies to retake their beloved city at any cost. As a gnome of proud standing, it falls to you to answer the challenge and lead your curious people to a brighter future.[3] (WoWMan 174)
Starting attributes
|Death Knight
- Priest class will be available for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm expansion.
Racial traits
|Escape Artist - instant - 1.75 min cooldown
|Escape the effects of any immobilization or movement speed reduction effect.
|Expansive Mind - passive
|Mana increased by 5%.
|Arcane Resistance - passive
|Reduces the chance you will be hit by Arcane spells by 2%.
|Engineering Specialization - passive
|Engineering skill increased by 15.
|Shortblade Specialization - passive
|Expertise with Daggers and One-handed Swords increased by 3.
Reasons for racial traits
Despite their short limbs and large heads, gnomes are remarkably nimble. They can keep pace with taller races, jump twice their height, and can make quite the Escape Artist by slipping out of both conventional and magical traps.
The Expansive Mind of the gnome race is readily apparent to the casual observer. Many of the Alliance's best arcanists, scientists and tinkers have been gnomes.
Engineering Specialization is a defining characteristic of gnome culture, and gnome creations such as the Deeprun Tram regularly make life easier and (more or less) safer for the Alliance's citizens.
Gnomes take the same approach to the arcane sciences as they do to other technologies. Their carefulness and precision with magic has given them a slight Arcane Resistance.
The gnomes' agile bodies move in perfect synchronization with light weaponry. Equipped with a Dagger or a Shortsword, the gnomes have a better shot at hitting their targets than most other races.
Gnomes have fair starting stats for the rogue class. This is because high agility benefits rogue's critical hit chance and dodge chance. The melee damage of rogues (and hunters) is based on agility as well as strength. A notable feature that sometimes may give a gnome rogue advantage is their very short height. An unprepared and less alert enemy player might not notice the dangerous gnome rogue creeping near him, especially if his camera is pointed upward or he is distracted. Of course this advantage rarely appears and an experienced player knows to be alert!
For mage and warlock classes, gnomes have an advantage (at low levels) because their high initial intellect means they have a larger mana pool (can cast more spells before running out of mana). The 5% intellect bonus given by the Expansive Mind trait is calculated after adding bonuses from gear, so it continues to offer an advantage even at high levels.
In CataclysmThis section concerns content exclusive to Cataclysm.
Gnome priests have been added in the expansion, Cataclysm, in tradition of the already existing medics. Gnome priests have been often considered mages or arcanists that tinkered with their spells to mend the wounded and sick. Their high intelligence allows them bind injuries, enshroud allies with magical barriers and shields, or even twist the shadows to destroy a foe's mind.
Reasons for Classes
- Warrior - Like many other races, some gnomes are just born with a sense of pride, revelling in the the thrill of close combat - weapons clanging and armor chiming is just music to their ears. Many of these gnomes also became troops for Operation: Gnomeregan and now fight on the front lines to reclaim their beloved city.
- Rogue - Due to their small size, gnomes have always made excellent scouts and agents for the Alliance. Additionally, these gnomes have been useful in scouting ahead and planning assaults on trogg-infested parts of Gnomeregon.
- Mage - Gnomes grasp the studies of magic with incredible ease, with their expansive knowledge and great intelligence. Many of the worlds greatest sorcerers, both just and evil, have been gnomes.
- Warlock - All races have darkness in their hearts, and the childlike gnomes are no different. Some gnomish mages, enraged and overcome with bitterness at the loss of Gnomeregan, even went so far as to devote themselves to dark magic.
- Priest - The ever curious Gnomes, being influenced by their friends within the Alliance, have taken up worship of the Holy Light.
- Death Knight - Like many other heroes of the grand Alliance and mighty Horde, Gnomish champions killed by the Scourge were often raised into undeath to serve the Lich King.
Why gnomes in the World of Warcraft?
From Insider Interview — with Chris Metzen: Gnomes and Trolls as Playable Races from the Blizzard Insider:
I think we deal with it a little bit in upcoming D&D supplements. During Warcraft II, the gnomes were, in effect, building weapons and lending designs to the Alliance — but they were staying out of any direct fighting. In Warcraft III and Frozen Throne, and even in World of Warcraft, it becomes clear that the gnomes have had internal problems of their own for several years. As of World of Warcraft, they still offer support to the Alliance in terms of building tanks, designing weapons, sending flying machines, and so on. But they had a problem at home that has recently been discovered — an ancient menace from the depths of the underground, called Troggs. The Troggs invaded the gnomes' city of Gnomeregan and wiped it out. The gnomes decided not to let the rest of the Alliance know about this because they figured that they could deal with it on their own. But Gnomeregan fell, probably thanks as much to the gnomes' own actions as to those of their enemies — they likely blew themselves up with whatever failsafe devices they used to defeat the threat. After the destruction of their homeland, the gnomes fled to the safety offered by their nearby allies the dwarves.
In CataclysmThis section concerns content exclusive to Cataclysm.
In the upcoming expansion World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, Gnomeregan Exiles will have their own unique starting area within Gnomeregan, rather than sharing Anvilmar with the Dwarves. Working to defeat Sicco Thermaplugg after their first attempt to retake the city: Operation: Gnomeregan
- The Death Knight Gnomes are performed by voice actor Dino Andrade who also provides the voices for Mekkatorque, Mimiron, Professor Putricide, and Fungalmancer Glop. He is also noted for being the voice of The Scarecrow in Batman: Arkham Asylum.
- The Male Gnome dance is from the song "Sex Bomb" by Clueless. The Female Gnome dance is from the song "Don't Cha" by the Pussycat Dolls.
- Actually the Gnome male dance may be closer to the dance by the Bloodhound Gang in Bad Touch Skip to 3:18.
- Male Gnomes have the longest /train emote out of all the Alliance races.
- Gnomes also have one of the shortest death animation/voice next to female Night Elves and both gender Worgen.

If both the city's and school division's 2013 tentative budgets get passed as is this spring, a homeowner with a property assessed at $200,000 is looking at forking over an additional $134 on their property taxes.
Based on the city's general mill rate increase of 0.98 per cent and a Brandon School Division mill rate increase of 8.5 per cent, the property owner assessed at $200,000 would pay roughly $17 (city) and $117 (school).

Unspoken words
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Schools offer many electives for students: art, music, theater and more. There are some courses that are required, though, like English, science, math, history and even Spanish.
Yes, Spanish. For a student in high school to receive his or her diploma, a foreign language is imperative.
Some schools have a larger variety of foreign language courses students can sign up for, such as French, German and Latin. However, some students say that another choice should be offered too: sign language.
"Sign language is like any other form of speech, except you speak with your hands instead of your mouth. To me, it is just as necessary as Spanish or French, if not more," said Scott High School freshman Alyssa Smith.
Smith is a member of the school's Partners Club, which helps special needs students socialize around school. She joined at the beginning of the year and is already showing eruditeness from watching the club's deaf and mute members.
Sign language can be of vital importance to anyone who wishes to obtain an occupation in the fields of education, government, health, recreation, social services and therapy. It is also frequently used in conference and courtroom settings.
Some jobs don't require very much sign language or any at all, but it is still an important skill. How wonderful would it be to talk to someone who can't speak or hear? It would make that person feel more invited, more respected.
The communication barrier is a problem for some students at Scott. Freshman Katie Clendenen said, "When some of my best friends bring their [deaf or mute] partner to me, I feel like I'm just waving and smiling the whole time due to my lack of knowledge in the art of signing."
Other students at Scott feel the same. They believe creating a sign language class will decrease these awkward moments between partner and helper.
If the program were started, then students could have a chance to communicate with their deaf and mute classmates without confusion. This issue of communication detracts from the excitement of Partners Club for some students. They find it pointless to have a partner if they can't converse with him or her.
"If we can't talk to them, then we are pretty much just walking them around the school. And when people ask us what he's signing, we don't know what to tell him," said junior Bethany Buckner.
She suggested that if sign language couldn't be made into a class, then it could be a club. A few students hope to begin such a club at Scott. In it, students will be taught simple words that are used in everyday language.
One advocate for the club is freshman Bretta Kuhn. "Having a signing club would be a great addition to [Partner's Club]. If students learn the way that some of the children in the group were taught, then less confusion would occur."
Krista Woods is an interpreter and aide at Scott. She is an advocate for a sign language club or class.
"As my job is to interpret the signing of some of my students, I sometimes am overwhelmed by how many kids ask me what the students are signing," she said. "If a class were made entirely for the purpose of signing, it would be beneficial to everyone."
One of Woods' students is her brother, Tyler.
"My brother is a very demanding student," she said. "He's always making jokes and calling people funny names, but not many people can understand what he is saying."Whether the club will be created or not is still undecided, but many students are willing to do whatever is needed to create it. Learning how to talk to people who are deaf and mute, and maybe even teaching others how to do it, will help everyone who participates.

A man who served as a top aide to former Gov. Mike Easley is back in North Carolina after serving several months of his tax evasion sentence at a Florida prison.
The federal Bureau of Prisons said Monday records show Ruffin Poole is living at a halfway house in the Raleigh area.
Poole is a native of Kinston.
Bureau spokesman Chris Burke said Poole returned three weeks ago after being at a minimum-security prison in Pensacola, Fla., since July. Poole is projected to leave the prison system in early June but will have two years of supervised release.
The 40-year-old Poole received a one-year and one-day sentence for pleading guilty before his trial was to begin on public corruption-related charges. Poole's case stemmed from an investigation of Easley.
Poole's attorney didn't return a phone message Monday.

Calcium supplements have long been considered a safe complement or replacement for dietary calcium. But recently a report came out saying that people who take calcium supplements are at greater risk of a heart attack.
Don't throw away your calcium supplements yet. There's more to the story. The results of this particular study are not conclusive and, thus, not sufficient to dictate a change in recommendations about calcium supplements for otherwise healthy people.
If you're not meeting your daily calcium requirements with low-fat dairy and other calcium-containing foods, then a calcium supplement may help. (It's a good idea to talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian if you have concerns about taking dietary supplements.)
But a diet rich in calcium is only part of maintaining bone health. The best prescription for healthy bones also includes:
Did this media report make you rethink your use of calcium supplements? If so, what are your plans for protecting your bone health?
To your health,

Do you know of any connection between using bisphosphonates and tooth resorption?
I was looking for something relating magnesium to calcium absorption.
Hi There The article was good,( Leikemia/stem cell patient, still on low doses of Prednisone)
Helped me understand the relationship of Calcium and Vitamin D. Now to try to figure out how to take it in smaller doses around my other meds!
I have been reading about the negative impact of oxalates in increasing calcium excretion. Do you recommend a low oxalate intake?
I use omeprazole for Barrett's Esophagus..this interferes with calcium absorption...I have -3t scoreBMD. What can be done to increase calcium absorption?
Is taking bone meal better or equal to taking calcium? I also take vitamin d3
I had a gastric bypass with a stapled stomach in 2008. Now, 5 years later, I am once again losing hair, can hardly breathe and my muscles burn when walking up my own stairs at home, causing aching thighs and heaving when I get to the top of the stairs.
I found out my anemia is back, it's 6.7, and I also noticed this past year that I am not 5'6.5" anymore...but 5'5"!!! I am only 47. Calcium is probably an issue.
I have begun taking 2 tablets of Iron 65mg, equivalent to 325mg Ferrous Sulfate daily in the morning and at night, combined at the same time with Cranberry gelcaps that have Vitamin C as Ascorbic Acid 40mg.
In the afternoon, I take 500mg Calcium Citrate that has Vitamin D - 800 I.U., Magnesium 80mg, and Zinc 10mg , all combined in the form of one tablet.
I had read you need D for Calcium absorption and C for Iron absorption, but that you should not take Iron and Calcium together.
But now I read that magnesium should not be taken with Calcium? It is already combined in my Calcium Citrate pill!
If I miss a day of iron, I can't breathe! I want my hair back.
I have also been stressed and eating the wrong foods, dumping syndrome, and gaining about 10 pounds back this past year.
I am looking for information on
1. How long before my hair stops falling out, 2. and if the calcium was the reason for my height reduction in just over a year or so. Maybe two.
3. And my iron....has always been an issue.
Can you help answer these questions?
I am 72. Been taking Actonel for 5 years along with 1800 mg ca and 2000 units vit d. All prescribe by my dr. I do weight bearing exercises 5 to 6 X a wk. I have no car so I walk everywhere. Iam 5'5" & wight 141 lbs. I eat healthy...very little red meat...lots of fruit, beans and nuts, whole wheat products limit my salt and sugar. And yet my bone scan shows my Osteoporosis is progressing in back & hip. Don't know what else to do.
I have read all the 24 coments, regarding Calcium Supplements, I take a multiable Vitimin for women, that had 500mg of Calcium in it and VitiminD 800units I use to take Calcium 600mg with vit.D, but I stopped when I read about it causing heart problems. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, And the Dr. put me on extra Calcium. Can you let me know if i did the righ thing by stopping my extra Calcium Supplement.
In a spanish health program, they said that you need MAGNESIUM ..for bones. the body transfer the MAGNESIUM to other parts of the body..and it makes sense ,people that drink a lot of milk, still get osteoporosis..why are they not telling this to people
I am 66 years old, and have taken calcium supplements off and on for over 10 years. I have taken them alone, or with Vitamin D, with Magnesium, and other recommended supplements. I have experimented with different brands of calcium, and have taken various doses. In EVERY case, after a couple of weeks of taking calcium, I have developed a very uncomfortable ache in my lower back. I have asked pharmacists, health food professionals, and my own doctors, and no one has been able to help me. They have 'never heard of this before' and don't know what to tell me. They all say that I should be taking calcium. I am wondering if the back ache is because the bone is thickening (I apparently have a slight thinning of the spine), or is there some other reason for the pain. Should I continue to take calcium, and take pain relievers as well? Once I stop taking calcium, the pain tends to last three or four weeks or more, and is always present, whether I am active, or sleeping. Walking sometimes helps. Pain relievers help too, most times.
I would like to know which calcium supplement is the most absorbent and one that won't cause constipation?
Does anyone know of any health conditions (apart from lack of enough vit D) which prevents the body from taking up enough calcium?
I've just had bloods done which show low calcium levels, but thought that I was getting enough of both. I eat cottage daily, and even hard cheese some days. Both soya milk and soya spread which I consume have vit D and calicum added.
I'm mystified.
Calcium Aspartate ANHYDROUS has been advertised as having a much higher absorption rate than other calcium supplements (as much as 92 percent). The only clinical trials have been done in China in 2000 by I.F. Tang, Ph.D. What do you know about this supplement? Can it have any serious side effects?
My bones are getting thinner even though I have been taking Actonel and 1200 mg. of calcium and 1,000 mg. of Vit. D for quite a few years. I am 82 years old.
My endocrinologist has urged me to stop taking Bisphosphonates and start taking yearly shots of either one of two new drugs. I don't want to take the shots as they have side effects and are exorbitantly expensive. Could any harm come from trying the Calcium Apartate ANHYDROUS from Ezorb?
Thank you for your help.
Chances are the calcium supplement you are taking now is a rock source of calcium. The label will say "calcium carbonate", which is nothing more than limestone.
In the end, one doesn't know what to do any more. I have mild osteoporosis but have already had spinal fractures; probably the result of having to take cortisone for polmyalgia. I have been taking 1000 mg calcium plus vitamin D for about one year. Until a year ago I had atrial fibrillation which was stopped by an electric choc. Ever since I have been fine. Should I stop my calcium treatment?
I started taking 1200 mg calcium with vitamin D about a year ago and have since developed an arrhythmia. Because of this study, I have reduced my intake of calcium citrate by half and am including more calcium rich foods in my diet and exercise to help combat my osteopenia.
Can someone talk to me about the difference between
say, Coral Calcium, Brazil Coral Calcium & Calcium citrate? Also, powdered magnesium you stir in warm water and injest called Natural Calm - what are the most effective ways to prevent bone loss & fractures.
I am 59 & highly stress - I have 2 parent in the nursing home 100 miles from me & a husband that just lost a kidney to a stage 3 tumor, but not other organs involved. Test show I've experienced severe bone loss.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Thanks for your comments on this topic. Your points are well taken. Although calcium, vitamin D and exercise are all important, other factors affect our bone health as well. The human body strives to keep nutrients in balance. Having too little or too much of one can cause problems. Excessive intake of protein, phosphorous and sodium can impact the bones by disrupting the balance. An example may be someone who drinks excessive amounts of cola-type soda and doesn't eat a calcium-rich diet. This high intake of phosphorus might cause the body to pull calcium from the bones to adjust the calcium level in the blood. There are also medical conditions that influence how the body uses nutrients. So for some people supplements may be essential, while for others supplements may be detrimental. Similarly, individuals vary in their ability to tolerate foods. This is what makes nutrition an ever-changing challenge for dietitians and others!
There are new studies coming out all the time and the next week an article will come out contracting the info so it's hard to know what to believe. I listen to my doctor and go by her orders. You can go broke buying everything that we're told is good for us. Health stores do a booming business.
If you read through the entire study, the only folks that ended up with increased risk for heart events were those who took calcium supplments WITHOUT an adaquate intake of vitamin D. Probably vitamin K and magenesium were omitted to (just my guess). To get calicum across the intestinal wall and into the bones, our body needs complmenting nutirients. Ideally we would get our calicum from fat free or low fat dairy products, without added sugars. However getting enough vitamin D might be quite a different story. So getting a vitamin D blood test first, supplementing to get blood levels into the normal range, and then taking calicum supplments with vitamin D, magesium and vitamin K may be the way to go for most of us.
I think it is also important to know that all calcium is not created equally. Calcium Carboinate is not well absorbed and and can cause side effects if taken incorrectly. Please consult a specialist about the type of calcium that is best for you.
After posting my comments, I read those of Frances who suggests that milk products are not the answer. I have heard this from other sources and it is most confusing as to what to do. Is there any clarification on this issue?
After hearing about the possibility of heart attack and calcium intake I have cut back on my supplements. The study did not apply to calcium and vitamin D, which is my supplement, but to be on the safe side I cut back to one 600 calcium with 400 D, and have concentrated on getting the extra calcium through food,yogurt, cheese, etc. I am also taking 1600 D per day.
Just because the recent study used one subset of people does not mean the results do not apply to others. I have always questioned my doctor on why he wants me to take calcium at age 75. Everyone seems to be asking the wrong questions. Studies show that people in countries who consume the most dairy produts have the highest fracture rate while those in countries consuming the lowest amount of dairy have the lowest fracture rates. The crucial factor is not the amount of dietary calcium, but the amount of calcium pulled from the bones and excreted. Excess salt, coffee, animal protein and dairy produce acid that must be buffered by pulling calcium from bones. When these foods are eliminated or reduced to a minimum, then calcium from vegetable sources such as dark leaf greens supply sufficient calcium. I was lucky to find a doctor who understood this and took the time to educate me. Milk and calcium supplements are unnecessary and, as the recent study pointed out, dangerous to your health. Meat eating ADA members who want us to eat from the dairy and meat group because that is how they were trained will never tell you the truth.
3 months after I started taking large amounts of calcium supplements, I developed arrhythmia and migraines. I reduced the amount of supplements, and added vitamin D & magnesium, and the problems stopped.
yes, this study does give me cause for concern --- i am a woman, over 50, who currently takes extra calcium and Vit D every day --- in addition, i also have osteo and take weekly medication for that ---- there is a family history of heart attack too --- this study has given me several questions to pose to my personal physician at our next appt --- sometimes one has to weigh out the lessser of evils and do what seems to be the most helpful direction to proceed.
I assume you're talking abou the British Medical Journal article.
I found the study and accompanying editorialpersuasive. But readers must understand it applies ONLY to WOMEN 50 or older taking at least 500 mg elemental calcium WITHOUT a vitamin D supplement.
Among the patients I see, nearly all of the postmenopausal women taking calcium are also taking extra vitamin D. So the research resuslt don't apply to them.
The editorial will convince you that the benefits of calcium supplements for most people are not that great.
-Steve Parker, M.D.
Reference: Bolland, Mark, et al. Effect of calcium supplements on risk of myocardial infarction and cardiovascular events: meta-analysis. British Medical Journal, 341 (2010): c3691
I too saw this report on the nightly news. Katie Courich said(I believe) that her doctor told her to stop taking her calcium supplement. So, I did too. My family has a history of heart disease and when I heard this report, I became concerned. But, I am also concerned about my bone strength. I guess I am in a quandar and a bit confused.
Almonds and Brazil nuts make good calcium-rich snacks if you are looking for natural ways to get Ca+. In fact, eating a variety of nuts - walnuts, pistachios and hazel nuts as the others - is a great way to find all those trace minerals like zinc, magnesium, etc.
Other thoughts?
I have used Lactaid milk for years. They now make a fat-free variety with extra calcium. I also take 1000 mg. of Vitamin D
daily with no problem.
I drink soy milk because of the lactose issue.
each time a new report comes out we all either go running to the store to buy the lateset miricle pill or stop in our tracks. do the lactose free milk products supply the same calcium and vitamin D needed as regular milk products? I was just about to go to GNC and get calcium supplements as I seem to be entering a new phase in life (46) and worry about about bone strentgth but seem to be lactose sensitive. any recommendations on a natural way to take in sufficicent calcium and Vitamin D when you have lactose issues?

Hello everyone! We have been busily working on the updates to the PD Tools Studio, and I'm pleased to let you know that we have made two updates available in a relatively short period (v18.104.22.168 and v188.8.131.52). From our perspective, we recommend you check for updates regularly, so that you are always working with the latest and greatest set of the PD Tools plug-ins. As well as bug fixes, these contain new features.
People often ask me why they should be using the GUIs for PD Tools instead of the ISPF-based interface. After all, the ISPF-based user interface has been around for more than a decade and is now quite mature. It is a big task for us to match the capability of the ISPF-based interface (because of its sheer size and the fact that it has been optimised to meet the users' expectations). But we also want to produce something that is better. Simply put, it is harder than we expected! The good news is we are slowly matching the ISPF-based interface, and we are starting to have some features that are better or only available in the PD Tools GUIs.
In this blog entry and upcoming entries, I will introduce some nice features we have in the plug-ins which make them more useable.
In the example screen shot below, the user is currently editing the data set name to use as a template to format the data, using the File Manager formatted editor's options dialogue. In the current context, a valid input value is a member of PDS or PDSE which contains a File Manager template or a copybook.
If you are a power-user who remembers the fully qualified name of a template or copybook, you can always type the fully qualified data set member name. If you are not 100% sure, then the content assist is provided to look it up. In the example, the user pressed Ctrl + Space to look up members in a data set called KEEPER.PLUGIN.TEMPLATE. All members in the data set are displayed as valid options. You can also use this feature to look up the data set name as well (for example, type KEEPER.PLUGIN., then invoke the content assist. It will look up all data sets starting with KEEPER.PLUGIN).
The content assist is provided throughout the File Manager plug-in. You can use it to look up data sets, USS files, CICS resources, MQ queues, and DB2 objects according to the context when you invoke the content assist.
We typically provide more interactive dialogue to look up resource as well – just click on the magnifying glass next to the entry box. This is similar to what is provided under the ISPF user interface. I think the content assist makes the plug-in more useable because it requires less mouse-clicks and navigation of different dialogues.
Enjoy looking up resources more efficiently!

44 U.S. Code § 2108 - Responsibility for custody, use, and withdrawal of records
prev | next
(a) The Archivist shall be responsible for the custody, use, and withdrawal of records transferred to him. When records, the use of which is subject to statutory limitations and restrictions, are so transferred, permissive and restrictive statutory provisions with respect to the examination and use of records applicable to the head of the agency from which the records were transferred or to employees of that agency are applicable to the Archivist and to the employees of the National Archives and Records Administration, respectively. Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, when the head of a Federal agency states, in writing, restrictions that appear to him to be necessary or desirable in the public interest with respect to the use or examination of records being considered for transfer from his custody to the Archivist, the Archivist shall, if he concurs,, [1] impose such restrictions on the records so transferred, and may not relax or remove such restrictions without the written concurrence of the head of the agency from which the material was transferred, or of his successor in function, if any. In the event that a Federal agency is terminated and there is no successor in function, the Archivist is authorized to relax, remove, or impose restrictions on such agency's records when he determines that such action is in the public interest. Statutory and other restrictions referred to in this subsection shall remain in force until the records have been in existence for thirty years unless the Archivist by order, having consulted with the head of the transferring Federal agency or his successor in function, determines, with respect to specific bodies of records, that for reasons consistent with standards established in relevant statutory law, such restrictions shall remain in force for a longer period. Restriction on the use or examination of records deposited with the National Archives of the United States imposed by section 3 of the National Archives Act, approved June 19, 1934, shall continue in force regardless of the expiration of the tenure of office of the official who imposed them but may be removed or relaxed by the Archivist with the concurrence in writing of the head of the agency from which material was transferred or of his successor in function, if any.
(b) With regard to the census and survey records of the Bureau of the Census containing data identifying individuals enumerated in population censuses, any release pursuant to this section of such identifying information contained in such records shall be made by the Archivist pursuant to the specifications and agreements set forth in the exchange of correspondence on or about the date of October 10, 1952, between the Director of the Bureau of the Census and the Archivist of the United States, together with all amendments thereto, now or hereafter entered into between the Director of the Bureau of the Census and the Archivist of the United States. Such amendments, if any, shall be published in the Register.

In A Bad Mood? Here's 18 Easy Ways To Snap Out Of It!
by Sheryl Stewart
posted Apr 12 2011 1:39PM
Women's Day Magazine published this list of 18 ways to snap out of a bad mood.....most of them look pretty easy and seem like they would work....so maybe worth a try next time you can't get out of your funk? If none of these work.....here are my personal Top 3: Smell some fresh oranges, buy & wear a new outfit, or listen to mariachi music (ok, there's one more, but you guys are not allowed to make out with my husband, ha!)
TOP 18 WAYS TO GET OUT OF A BAD MOOD (From Women's Day)
Start a blog.
Like journaling, it gives you an outlet for your feelings. "But it may be even better for triggering happiness because people can leave you positive comments," says Caroline Adams Miller, coauthor of Creating Your Best Life. Begin one at Blogger.com.
Make up a ridiculous story.
If someone is fueling your sour mood, create a goofy character in your head based on that person. "Imagine an outrageous comic calamity befalling him," says Amy Riley, a life balance consultant for Tiara Coaching in Chicago. You'll get a good chuckle out of it.
Put yourself in the movies
. Think of your favorite film scene, one that makes you feel great every time you see it—like Bridget Jones kissing Mark Darcy in the snow. Now picture yourself as the main character. "Embracing that moment triggers optimism," says John Ryder, PhD, author of Positive Directions.
Soak up the sun.
Go outside or stand beside a bright window and bask in the warming rays for a few minutes. Sunlight ups the level of vitamin D in your body, which in turn keeps serotonin (a feel-good hormone) high, explains Mehmet Oz, MD, coauthor of You: Being Beautiful.
Be on the lookout for small wonders: butterflies in your garden, an amazingly bright full moon, etc
Listen to your favorite upbeat song and you'll be happier in seconds
Put photos of things/people you love on the fridge
. We look at our refrigerator about 27 times a day, so make the most of it. "Research shows that the happiest people have many joyful family photos displayed in their homes," says Adams Miller.
Surround yourself with plants and flowers
Change one of your passwords
(e-mail, voice mail, ATM) to a word that primes you to think in an optimistic way—the name of your much-loved pet, the funny nickname you call your husband, or even the word love.
Break out of the box. Do one small thing that's new and unexpected.
Mark your calendar. Make a note of an upcoming event that you're looking forward to!
Be generous.
A recent study found that when people spent as little as $5 on others, they reported greater feelings of joy.
Turn the negative positive
. List five to 10 things that went wrong today, then read them out loud, says Riley. It may sound counterintuitive but it works: When you hear all of it together—you dropped your morning bagel on the floor, noticed a new gray hair, discovered that your teen used the last of the shampoo—you'll see how minor it all is. And a little perspective goes a long way.
Send out good vibes
. "Text three friends and tell each of them one thing you like about her," says Sonja Lyubomirsky, PhD, author of The How of Happiness. Your kind words will make them (and you) feel terrific.
Lend a hand.
Call a local nursing home, shelter, church or charitable organization and ask how you can help. Those few minutes on the phone are all it takes to kick your spirits into high gear. Knowing that you'll soon be helping others—and then following through—makes you feel good about yourself, says Susan Ouellette, a health care educator in Baltimore, Maryland.
Think of the good stuff
. Spend a couple of minutes reflecting on your accomplishments over the past five, 10, 15 years, recommends Dan Baker, PhD, author of What Happy Women Know.

A*STAR and Veredus Laboratories Create Market's First Lab-on-Chip for the Detection of Multiple Tropical Infectious Diseases
The lead virologist in this project, Associate Professor Lisa F.P. Ng from A*STAR's Singapore Immunology Network (SIgN) said, "Tropical diseases often reflect common symptoms like fever, and may not be accurately diagnosed early by doctors. This portable test kit is a rapid and reliable method to accurately test for multiple pathogenic targets from just one blood sample in a matter of hours."Together with Prof Laurent Renia, an expert in Malaria Immunobiology at SIgN, the team from SIgN has successfully validated the kit on patient samples in the external fields of Northern Thailand, at the Thai-Myanmar border.
Professor François H Nosten, the clinical collaborator at the Oxford Clinical Unit in Mae Sot and Director of the Shoklo Malaria Research Unit said, "This technology opens new possibilities for the accurate and rapid diagnostic of important infectious diseases that remain the main causes of illness in the tropics. Its versatility and ease of use will change the approach to diagnostics at the periphery of health care system."
"Veredus and A*STAR have worked on several collaborative projects dating back to 2004," said Dr. Rosemary Tan, CEO of Veredus Laboratories, a Singapore-based, majority owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics. "This latest project on VereTrop Lab-on-Chip has combined the strengths and expertise of A*STAR, Veredus, and STMicroelectronics to create a powerful multiplexed molecular product that can rapidly detect and differentiate symptomatically similar tropical infectious diseases and enable timely proper treatment."
Developed with infectious disease expertise from A*STAR's SIgN, this biochip, which operates on STMicroelectronics' Lab-on-Chip platform, was initiated between ETPL, the technology transfer arm of A*STAR, and Veredus in 20091. Prior to this, Veredus had licensed diagnostic technology from A*STAR in the areas of influenza and malaria2 .
"After this journey of more than three years, we are glad that such a compelling technologically-advanced product with global healthcare benefits is ready to be launched to the market. Veredus is a good example of how local companies can work with A*STAR for a consistent stream of technology to develop products that can enhance their offerings and level them up to be competitive and relevant globally," said Philip Lim, Chief Executive Officer of ETPL.Enclosed:

A soft paste formulated to knife consistency, Gamblin Cold Wax Medium is made from naturally white unbleached beeswax, alkyd resin, and odorless mineral spirits (OMS), and is used to make oil colors thicker and more matte. It can be thinned to brush consistency by dissolving it in a small amount of OMS. The surface of paintings made with beeswax mediums will become only as hard as a beeswax candle.
Adding Gamblin Galkyd to Cold Wax Medium/oil colors mix will increase the sheen and flexibility of the paint film. Use a small amount to make Galkyd Mediums more matte. Cold Wax Medium contains no oil, so it can be applied as a wax varnish over a dry oil painting.

East Borough Bridge
this wiki
The East Borough Bridge(s) is a series of three bridge and a highway intersection in Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto IV, based off of the Triborough Bridge, now known as the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. It connects the boroughs of Algonquin, Dukes and Bohan, as well as the small Charge Island.
The bridge elevates above much of Charge Island and has a toll plaza for drivers driving in or out of Dukes and Charge Island. There are two ways of using the bridge without paying: Traveling between Algonquin and Bohan (in either direction) and traveling between Dukes and Charge Island (in either direction). Using the bridge to make a different journey will result in a toll charge of $5. The East Borough Bridge is one of the three bridges that connect to Bohan; along with the Northwood Heights Bridge and Dukes Bay Bridge. The bridge is essentially three bridges as one, each span adjoined to Dukes, Algonquin and Bohan.
Accessing the East Borough Bridge is easy for the most part as the bridge is often entered or exited from a continuation of a major road. The East Borough Bridge becomes Harrison Street in the neighborhood of East Island City when it reaches Dukes. At the Algonquin end, the bridge leads into Ruby Street in Lancaster; and at the Bohan end, the bridge exits onto Gainer Street in South Bohan via an offramp. Entering the bridge from Bohan is done by using the on ramp from San Quentin Avenue in South Bohan. Charge Island access is obtained through on and off ramps from the bridge itself and Charge Island onto and off minor unnamed roads on the island.
- Sometimes, LCPD officers can be found checking cars near the Algonquin exit for the bridge and fining them. If the player steals the car while an officer is checking it, the boot remains open, and will remain open even when it's saved at a safehouse.
- The East Borough Bridge is the longest bridge in Liberty City.
- If you are in possesion of a bike, instead of paying the $5, you can simply drive between the two toll booths without getting a wanted level. This is a good way of saving money and time. However cars cannot go through as it is only big enough for a bike.
- What is interesting to note is that the real life Triboro Bridge had its configuration changed after GTA IV came out and the new configuration made the in-game counterpart more similar. In real life, there was an exit added to the bridge towards Queens (Dukes) that is accessed after the toll plaza. This exit was designed in GTA IV so its unclear if Rockstar knew about the bridge changes or it is merely coincidental.
- It is one of two bridges in Liberty City that has a toll.

GREENVILLE, N.C. - Following its second-best start in Conference USA history the East Carolina soccer team is ranked No. 10 in the Central Region, according to a release Monday by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NCSAA). The Pirates are one of five teams from C-USA to be ranked in the Central Regional.
In its first four games in conference play, East Carolina (7-5, 3-1 C-USA) has recorded threeshutouts and currently sits in a tie for second place with Rice in the league standings. The Pirates are coming off a 1-1 week after dropping a tough 2-0match at No. 25 Memphis before picking up its fifth clean sheet of the season at UAB, 1-0.
Senior Chrissy Gratz netted her third goal of the season (second game-winner) on an assist by fellow classmate Rachel Wechsler against the Blazers. Junior Christiane Cordero, who earned C-USA Defensive Player-of-the-Week honors back on Sept. 24, posted her 12th career shutout, 27th career win and lowered her season goals against average to 1.25.
In the Central Region, UCF is the top-ranked team followed by Big-12 members Baylor, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, Kansas and Texas Tech. Memphis checks in at No. 7, while fellow C-USA members Colorado College (eighth) and Rice (tied for 10th) are also represented. Stephen F. Austin rounds out the list at No. 9.
ECU will continue its four-game road trip next weekend heading to the Lone Star State to square off against Houston (Oct. 5 at 8 p.m./ET) and Rice (Oct. 7 at 2 p.m./ET).

Brandon Roberts
this wiki
Brendan Roberts is a famous Vinewood actor who can be heard on Intelligent Agenda with Mike Riley on Public Liberty Radio (PLR). Brendan seems to be very full of himself, and compliments himself from time to time. Brendan is working on ending global warming, and wears a t-shirt when he is on PLR that has a slogan or image of ending global warming on it. He has acted mostly in action movies, including one where he is on the Los Santos freeway and is being chased by a giant monkey (calling it "a nice quiet character piece.") Projects include "The Flower Man" and "Family Interrupted". At the end of his interview, he says "Kifflom", which suggests that he is a follower of the Epsilon Program. Roberts seems to be a parody of successful actors from the late '80s and early '90s, most blatantly Tom Cruise (his sunny disposition and involvement in a controversial religion).
