With the passing of Harold Ramis, I was surprised to learn of the medical condition that led to his death. I remember him as Private Russell Ziskey in Stripes, an unemployed parapsychology professor in Ghostbusters, and as a co-writer in Animal House. Press releases state that the actor, director and screenwriter succumbed to complications from autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis (vass-ku-lite-us). According to medical journals, autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis is an acquired disease that causes inflammation of the blood vessels. In Mr. Ramis's case, it was reported that he had extreme difficulty walking and using his legs and arms.
So how did this horrible disease afflict Mr. Ramis? Dr. Waseem Mir, a rheumatologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York told CBS news that only 1% of the US population has this disease, making it extremely rare. However, Dr. Peter Merkel, a rheumatologist and director of Penn Vasculitis Center at the University of Penn medical school told CNN that "Mr. Ramis had one of 15 identified variants of vasculitis. None of these conditions individually affects more than 200,000 people in the US. But if you add them all up together, it's not rare, and the chances are everybody knows somebody, directly or indirectly, that is affected."
Now does that last sentence sound familiar? Maybe in discussions about vaccine injury? If two leading rheumatologists cannot agree whether or not this medical condition is rare, why not examine some previous medical cases of vasculitis?
In a paper presented by Tomljenovic and Shaw in 2012 regarding the death of two individuals who were administered the HPV vaccine, tissue samples of the brain led the authors to interpret the results as demonstrating an autoimmune cerebral vasculitis. Now, we can confidently assume that Mr. Ramis did not receive a Gardasil vaccine, but it does bring vaccinations into the question. Another study, published in 2009 by Birck, Kaelsch, et al, titled "ANCA-associated vasculitis following influenza vaccination: causal association or mere coincidence?" did not prove a causal association between influenza vaccine and vasculitis, but it did assert that in rare cases vaccination might induce vasculitic disease. Now we have the possibility that influenza vaccine might, under "rare" conditions, induce vasculitis.
On its website "Living with Vasculitis", Vasculitis UK posts the following warnings about the influenza and pneumonia vaccines: "Flu and Pneumonia vaccines are not recommended for vasculitis patients." The website continues with a warning to those with autoimmune disorders not to receive the shingles vaccine. Now how many of you drive by a retail pharmacy such as CVS, Rite-Aid, or Walgreens and see their electronic outdoor signs blasting the message, "Don't forget about your shingles vaccine"? By the way, the shingles vaccine is not covered in the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, so if you do have an adverse reaction to the shingles vaccine, which results in a serious injury, you are SOL.
So that got me thinking about the 15,000+ petitions filed in the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program seeking compensation for vaccine injury. There are many petitions filed claiming vasculitis as an injury from several different vaccines. Conducting a very quick search, I found over 20 petitions, most of them compensated and with medical expert testimony stating that the following vaccines contributed to vasculitis:
Reviewing several vasculitis organization websites, a common message appears. That most causes of vasculitis are unknown, that more research is needed, and according to the Vasculitis Foundation, "vasculitis can cause a weakening and narrowing of the walls of the blood vessels, leading to blockage. Then, affected organs and tissues don't get the blood they need to function, causing them to die."
In the following few weeks as Harold Ramis's death will remind many, many more individuals about the dangers of vasculitis, several questions need to be asked by researchers and scientists.
1. Actually how many people in the US and around the world have some form of vasculitis? Are they aware of this condition? This would be very important since there are risks taking certain medications while treating vasculitis.
2. Will there be any honest and independent discussion from scientists and researchers about the possibility that vaccines can contribute to the causation of vasculitis?
Harold Ramis said in an interview several years ago about his career, "My characters aren't losers. They're rebels. They win by their refusal to play by everyone else's rules."
My hope is that many more people will follow his advice.

My husband too. But not Wagners - some kind a muscular skeleton stuff that Emory clinic said was a mitochondria issue.
However; the more I look at this the more I think it has to do with gluten sensitivity; and maybe other food allergies.
Five years ago he came to the end of his rope; after years of living with this and his oxygen level plummeted
Gluten free diet and his oxygen levels came back up.
Of course we got into pain clinic and they have stood in our way by giving him way too much morphine and muscle relaxers, and benzos. I had a long two year talk with my husband - cause he is addicted - he ended up with pneumonia this year - I knew he was going to - morphine does not let them breath deep - so after a couple of bouts with that - and my daughter and I both calling the pain clinic complaining and to the neurologist - he is getting off of some of these medicines. And that is how the medical profession kills off 8 million people a year.
I have Wegener's. I was vaccinated with a tetanus shot following a needle stick. December 12th 2012. I was 29. It was a downward spiral of vague symptoms until March 2013. By summer 2013 I was on deaths door step.
Vasculitis UK actually states:
"Flu and Pneumonia vaccines are recommended for vasculitis patients."
Vaccine Related Nerve Damage, A Toxic Reaction
Posted on February 3, 2011 by Vaccine Injury Lawyer
Nearly every vaccine approved by the FDA as safe and effective contains at least one neurotoxin. A neurotoxin is a chemical that causes permanent damage to cells (neurons) and structures (receptors and mitochondria) of the brain when it enters the human body. Once enough damage occurs, the symptoms of chronic disease develop.
Since the central nervous system controls every single function in the human body, this damage can take on the symptoms of almost any disease or disability. The symptoms depend upon which nerves are damaged. Some conditions related to vaccine nerve damage include:
➢ Brachial Neuritis – characterized by severe shoulder pain, weakness, numbness or paralysis in the arm or hand, lack of muscle control or sensation.
➢ Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIPD) – a progressive weakness and impaired feeling in the arms or legs, characterized by tingling or numbness beginning in the fingers and toes, loss of deep tendon reflexes, fatigue and abnormal sensations.
➢ Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) – severe burning pain, pathological changes in bone and skin, excessive sweating, tissue swelling and extreme sensitivity to touch.
➢ Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) – usually begins with symptoms similar to CIPD (above), gradually spreading to the arms and upper body sometimes resulting in total paralysis, or death.
➢ Multiple Sclerosis (MS) – can exhibit a wide range of symptoms, including vision problems, weakness, paralysis, jerking or twitching muscles, loss of sensation or extreme sensitivity, coordination or balance problems, cognitive dysfunction (brain fog, memory loss, etc..), and seizures.
➢ Opsoclonus-Myoclonus Syndrome (OMS) – characterized primarily by brief, shock-like muscle spasms and irregular rapid eye movement. May also experience difficulty speaking or be unable to speak.
➢ Trigeminal Neuralgia – sudden, severe stabbing or electric shock-like pains usually in the head or neck area and lasting several seconds.
➢ Transverse Myelitis – typically starts with sudden lower back pain, muscle weakness, or unusual sensations in the feet. It can rapidly progress to more severe symptoms including paralysis, urinary retention problems and loss of bowel control.
The chronic disease symptoms caused by nerve damage listed above is by no means exhaustive. Although any one of the neurotoxins in vaccines can cause them, not everyone who receives a vaccine will experience adverse reactions due to nerve damage. If you are in good health, have little or no environmental exposure to neurotoxins, and are not genetically pre-disposed to any of the above conditions, there is a good chance you will survive vaccination with no problems. However, that is not the case with everyone.
There are at least 1178 chemicals officially listed as neurotoxins. Many of these neurotoxins are vaccine ingredients including aluminum, aluminum hydroxide, potassium chloride, neomycin, thimerosal (mercury), polymyxin, sodium deoxycholate, squalene, and formaldehyde, just to name a few. You are exposed to neurotoxins every day through a variety of sources. The effects of exposure to neurotoxins are cumulative and permanent.
There is no way to determine in advance which neurotoxin will push you, or your child over the edge into chronic disease. Remember, vaccines are only one source of neurotoxin exposure.
Dear Friends, To understand vasculitis, just spend an hour watching the youtube piece of N. Paranandi speaking on the topic of "vascular disease" In this piece he is talking about vascular effects of mercury, (as seen in his research ) but I think he would also agree that similar effects could take place as a result of other causes of irritation of the lining of the blood vessels also. Believe, me , this piece is really worth watching. You may not understand all the science, but you sure will understand how mercury, even in very low concentrations causes heart attacks and strokes and other vascular disease. You can also understand the gut problems of the autistic kids by watching his youtube piece in which he addresses the IAOMT convention on the topic of leaky gut syndrome and other effects of mercury on the human gut. N. Paranandi is a professor at Ohio State.
Recently there was a large article in our Times of India newspaper describing the large number of children and infants suffering from strokes. Apparently I must be one of a handful of people in India that would understand that this is due to our vaccine schedule full of mercury and the mothers who eat fish and feed it to their kids. Like autism - its all a mystery.
the first time i heard of ischemia was from dr. moulden...there is no difference between vasculitis and ischemia and it is related to autism http://www.ageofautism.com/2009/06/a-tale-of-autistic-blood.html
I was on the same wave-length as the rest of you...
Which list is shorter, chronic health problems that involve an undesirable provocation of the immune system or chronic health problems that don't? From my very non-professional understanding with only a little digging here and there, I'm not sure I can place any condition in the latter and the former is quite disturbing in length.
Our local supermarket has a list of all the vaccines they recommend all adults get at their pharmacy: flu, shingles, pneumonia, hep A and B, meningococcal, Tdap. They wouldn't have them if there weren't a lot of uninformed adults getting them. I know four people who have peripheral neuropathy, three of them went to Mayo's, and one of them told me that Mayo's is doing a study of its increasing frequency. I had to learn to walk again after a crippling MS attack caused by a tetanus booster. All vaccines cause inflammation, which has to become chronic in order to maintain "immunity." There's no question but that it causes encephalitis and neurological crippling. People just don't know.
Harold Ramis as Dr Egon Spengler gave us rules to live by.
It is cool to collect molds, spores and fungus.
Don't cross the streams.
My sons and I watched Ghost Busters a few weeks ago and we all had a great time.
Thank you Wayne for getting us to pause and think about this. I bet that would make Mr. Ramis smile.
Joe's Kawasakis website all say to get those vaccines.
No problem -- except maybe delay the vaccines a bit the reason being: after recovering from Kawaskais kids were given a lot of IgGs and other steroid type meds and the medicine that would keep the body from building an immunity -- no use is wasting a perfectly good vaccine.
Good article - darn right the whole sorry mess involves inflammed blood vessels.
Including Kawasakis disease and atypical Kawasakis diseaee.
That little disease goes undignosed for the most parttoo.
Back in the 1970s, Harold Ramis was also a writer and actor for the Second City Television (SCTV) comedy series.
I wonder whether researchers at the University of Pennsylvania Vasculitis Center find any investigations into vaccine causality censored due to their promixity to vocal vaccine industry promoters working at U-Penn and CHOP.
I read that at one point, Ramis had to re-learn how to walk. I wonder what was in his medical records... but HIPAA means few people will ever know. And of course, after a person is dead and buried, nothing more can be learned about the cause of death. Only the mystery remains... along with the next round of victims.
The other day a smiling Walgreens pharmacy tech asked me if I'd had the shingles shot yet. I replied that I'd had an adverse reaction to a vaccine. She asked me to repeat myself, which I did. Her smile never wavered as she handed me a sheet announcing my insurance company would pay for the shingles shot (though it's only 50% effective), with no co-pay.
The CDC is working hard to promote more vaccines for adults. Soon we will be hearing that any apparent increase in vasculitis is just better diagnosis.
When I read things like this I can't help but constantly ponder the yet unknown but growing benefits of fecal microbial transplants and how it may have helped.
hmm..seems the law knows? Isn't that how it goes? The medical community denies, as with tobacco and vioxx, it takes a court? http://www.vaccineinjuryhelpcenter.com/wegener%E2%80%99s-granulomatosis-2/
My mother in law died on Thanksgiving a few years back, she received the first shots in her life,TD's over a three month span ending with flu vaccine on Oct.13, Oct.14th was her birthday, she called said she was too ill for a get together,her health declined quickly ..died of Wegener's vasculitis. Vaccine and drugs stand as causing 15% of this disease..with more than 50% left in the "unknown cause column".
Re. Narrowing of blood vessels- would this not be another bio- marker or effect that could be studied PHYSIOLOGICALLY in either animals (vaccinated vs unvaccinated) or in some kind of human study that parents would allow??
Narrowing of small blood vessels- a friend's daughter had Reynaud's soon after her Gardasil series...
So glad you wrote this Wayne. I was hoping for more info about the "rare" inflammatory auto-immune disorder Harold suffered with and succumbed to.
From what I read he was first diagnosed in 2010 and had to learn how to walk again! Wonder if he got regular flu shots? Wonder if there was any precipitating event?
I thought the same thing, Wayne when I heard of his tragic death. Thanks for writing about this.

2014 har varit ett otroligt händelserikt år när det kommer till produktsläpp, nu ska vi kika på en av de mest utmärkande händelserna!
Londonbaserade makeupartisten Charlotte Tilbury (har jobbat med bl.a. Kate Moss, Penélope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez, Tom Ford och Stella McCartney, ni fattar, larger than life) släppte sin egen linje lyxig kosmetika, hudvård och verktyg. Allt paketerat i vacker koppar med vinröda accenter, så classy! Produkterna finns att shoppa på Charlotte Tilburys brittiska hemsida, brittiska Net-a-Porter som ibland har gratis frakt till Sverige samt amerikanska Beautylish som tyvärr inte skickar över Atlanten ännu.
Detta inlägg kommer bli på engelska, det blir så otroligt mycket text annars. Om ni vill att jag klargör något som inte framgår i engelskan så är det bara att fråga i kommentarsfältet. Puss!
2014 has been a great year when it comes to product launches, and we're about to take a look at one of the absolute highlights!
London based celebrity makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury (who has worked with Kate Moss, Penélope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez, Tom Ford and Stella McCartney amongst others, you know the drill, larger than life) launched her own line of luxury cosmetics, skincare and tools. All wrapped in gorgeous copper packaging with wine coloured accents, ultra classy!
These products are available at the Charlotte Tilbury British website, British Net-a-Porter and american Beautylish.
Lip Lustre
The lipgloss line contains an array of gorgeous nudes to match any skintone or shade preference, and is topped off with a few reds. How deep do you dare to go? A vinyl finish, non-sticky feeling and long wear time is promised, who doesn't like the sound of that?
The formula of these is definitely thick, but more of a "gel" kind of thick instead of the stringy and tacky glosses that we all dread. I either want my glosses thin and balmy or like this, a thick glamorous lacquer. These are phenomenal for any high impact gloss lover!
Lip Cheat Lip Pencil
The lip pencil is Charlotte Tilburys secret weapon backstage. Resize and/or reshape the lips and lay a long wearing base for other lip products. You have three nudes and two shades of red to pick from.
I'm not much of a lip liner person, it may be because of my dry lips, because I almost always find them thick and crunchy when worn all over. Same thing with these to be honest, but I do like using them as a finishing touch after my lipstick is applied to make the lines extra crisp. Good liners overall though, they do glide on well without tugging.
K.I.S.S.I.N.G Lipstick
The range of creamy lipsticks is of course insanely thrilling. Enriched with antioxidants and creamy waxes this formula promises a long wearing result that doesn't bleed at the edges. There are 10 shades to pick from out of which about half are great for finding the perfect nude just for you, and we all know how much of a struggle that is!
In this line I found some absolute favourites and some "meh" products, they actually vary a lot in formula from shade to shade. Some of them are jaw droppingly creamy and long wearing on the lips, totally matches the price point, while others are a bit grittier which would be fine for a slightly lower price. Good lipsticks, but not all are mindblowing! I expect a lot when I pay a lot.
Luxury Palette
The Luxury Palette eyeshadows is probably the product that lures people in, just look at it! Colour coded quads with a prime shade to apply all over the lid and inner corner, an enhance shade for eye socket and lashlines, a smoke shade for extra socket and lash line definition and then the glittery pop that ties it all together with a glamorous sparkle. Go with the thought out look or create your own!
These also vary in quality. All of them go on smooth and soft on the eyes but the pigmentation is not always on point. I'm not talking about bad quality here either but I would have wanted a heavier punch in some places, most smoke shades are a bit weak for example. The pop shades are mindblowing though, the sparkle actually stays on the lids!

|The Top 4 Effects Pedals You Really Need
|Written by
|Wednesday, 05 August 2009 10:49
If you're building a house there are some "must have" tools you should keep in your toolbox. A hammer for driving nails, a saw for cutting wood, a tape measure, pliers and screwdrivers, just to name a few.
When playing guitar there are some great "tools" available to color the tone of your guitar in various ways. Some purists would argue that, with the right amp and guitar, no extra tools should be needed.
But let's face it, we guitar players love our toys. All the new fangled gadgets that produce and endless array of tones and sounds. But if money is tight, and we absolutely had to choose a handful of the most "important" effects pedals, here are my "hands down" top 4 picks.
1. Distortion - Unless your amp has a killer crunch with channel switching, a good distortion pedal is a must have. In fact, if I could only choose one pedal to own, it would be a distortion pedal. There are a ton a choices on the market and your choice will be largely dependent on your style of music and personal taste.
2. Chorus - My number two pick would be a chorus pedal. This is a modulating effect that produces a "sweet" swirly sound. It's a great effect for clean rhythms, as well as a nice touch for crunchy leads.
3. Delay - Most amps come equipped with reverb, and most times that will do the trick. But having the ability to add some "slap back" to your leads will bring a whole new dimension to your sound. This is one of those "a little goes a long way" effects, so use it wisely.
4. Wah-Wah - As an "old school" guitarist, I grew up with a wah-wah pedal and have used one as long as I can remember. They are great for adding a "talking" or "singing" effect to your leads, and are also a good rhythm tool for the funky stuff.
It's important to remember that any effects pedal is just a tool and should never become a crutch. I have seen too many new guitarists go out and purchase a plethora of pedals, only to become dependent on them. Take the pedals away and they suffer from guitar paralysis.
Keep your main focus on truly learning how to play guitar, and use the pedals only to spice things up. Use them sparingly and tastefully and you will become a well rounded player with a wide range of tones at your disposal.
Keep on Picking!

Game 6: Looks like Eminger back in
An optional skate for the Rangers this morning at Madison Square Garden but a pretty loose group of players on the ice in advance of an elimination game. Best moment came when defenseman Anton Stralman snapped his stick trying to take a shot from the left faceoff circle and he toppled over without the balance of his stick to support him. Gathering himself back on his skates, Stralman scrunched low and took another shot with his half stick, a wobbler that Henrik Lundqvist gloved.
"Chocolate chip or blueberry," I asked Stralman back in the room, indicating the shot was a real muffin.
"Strawberry," Stralman said.
As far as the lineup is concerned for tonight's game, it appears defenseman Steve Eminger will be in for Stu Bickel based on Eminger being off the ice early and Bickel remaining on the ice for some extra skating. Eminger was in the Rangers' lineup for Games 3 and 4 in this series (he also played Game 1 against the Capitals as a spare forward) but was again a healthy scratch in Game 5. Eminger wasn't in the room when the media entered but I saw him in the hallway and flashed a thumbs-up sign to him, as in, "Are you in or out?" Eminger mouthed back, "You'll have to wait."
From The Record (see if you can spot the theme):
- Columnist John Rowe thinks about memories of '94.
- Devils beat reporter Tom Gulitti writes Martin Brodeur is so past '94.
- I write that Ryan Callahan won't pull a Messier.
Heading over to The Rock shortly. Until then, check below for what John Tortorella, Henrik Lundqvist and Brandon Prust had to say today…Read More...

C'mon, it's not that bad outside—put away that gym pass, put on The North Face Women's Out The Door Softshell Jacket, and get some fresh air along with your workout. TNF made this jacket with the lighweight Apex Aerobic softshell fabric that stretches and breathes for maxiumum comfort while you're moving, and it also offers protection from chilling winds at the same time. A DWR finish repels light precipitation, too. And if you opt for the indoor workout anyway, the jacket's flattering princess seams and stylish rib-knit collar, hem, and cuffs will ensure you look good coming and going.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Great color!
I bought this jacket in blue. I love the color and get complimented everytime I wear it. It is very light weight coming in at 11 ounces. It's perfect for me at my office where I never know if it's going to be hot or cold. I am 6 ft tall and broad shouldered and long armed and the XL fits well. I was very surprised that it had a 2 inch elastic waistband and on the cuff. The picture does not show that. I looked at the picture and saw smooth material, not ribbed. I am not happy that the elastic in the waistband is curled up as well, like it is too long for the space it is in and has to curl to fit. Another issue I had was in the cuff. I could feel something poking me like a sliver. I finally got hold of it and found it to be the black thread used to sew it. I don't know how to describe it other than sharp and wirery. So..all in all I love the color, dislike the waistband enough to give it a 3 star. If it weren't a hassle I would probably return it and spend my money on a different item. I think the picture should be changed to show the waistband.
Highly recommended
Got this in a small rather than a medium by mistake, but it looked so good that I gave the small to my daughter and ordered another one for myself in the correct size. Great looking jacket.
Does anybody know the weight of this jacket?...
Does anybody know the weight of this jacket? thanks
I weighed the jacket and it came out to be 11 ounces. Hope this helps.
Will this jacket keep me warm on chilly...
Will this jacket keep me warm on chilly days? What type of weather is this good for?
That really depends on how you define chilly days, what you're doing, and your tolerance to cold. If you were just standing around, its probably not going to keep you very warm below 40-50. If you're running or hiking or biking, you could be comfortable to a much lower temperature. This is good for dry weather or very very light precipitation.

Martinez, Ga--We already have one college signing. At Augusta Chrsitian, offensive lineman Zach Giella putting his name on the dotted line as he'll be playing at Clemson.
The big senior was highly recruited by Dabo Swinney and his staff as Giella will actually start school for the second semester. It's been a long journey to get this far, and he's happy it's now behind him.
"I knew it was big coming into it, but when my recruiting process started I had no idea how big it would be." said Zach Giella " Because you have no idea, coming into it what you're going to get. You see pictures of people getting stuff but when you finally start getting it, it's like wow this is so cool, then you start getting all of it, and it really blows you away."
Still business to take car of as Giella is hoping to lead Augusta Christian back to the SCISA state title game.

what's this?
report abuse
I'm getting lazy, I know. I posted this on the other site earlier, but thought a few might be wondering how I'm doing of late, so here is a short rundown on what happened.
This last heart attack did much to wake me up, tho the first one was one hell of a bucket of cold water on the thought of getting away with things for a very long time and not paying the price. Like smoking, which in my case was probably the main contributing factor. I knew for sure then I would have to quit, but didn't.
The second one, well, when I woke up with chest pains, shortness of breath, and my heart felt like it was going to beat itself out of my chest, I knew then it would be a mistake to not get something done. At first I considered having WoW drive me into the hospital. But, I knew that I would likely need some emergency work on the way so called 911. Once the Emergency crew got here, I was put on oxygen, fed more nitro pills and a couple more asprin, and away we went.
Got to the ER in the Cape, and there was no hesitation, I went right in and they put a stint in one artery, and then got me stabilized so they could in effect ask if they could di the bypass. No brainer there, do it, and soon. I was probably a bit under the influence of of the anesthesia, but what the heck, I just knew it had to be done or it wouldn't do any good to get me out of the hospital. There are always risks with open heart surgery, nothing is guarenteed when you get right down to it,but I knew I had a better chance of continuing with it than without it. I think that was when I finally decided doctors do know more than I do about what might be good for me.
So, a couple of days later, they pump me full of some what must have been some good stuff, cause a few minutes afterward, the lights went out and I was definitely in LALA land. The next things I remember was waking up in recovery, with a gazillion wires hooked up to me to monitor everything, and a catheter to check urine output. That and I had to cough, real bad.
Have you ever been in a situation where the more you cough, the worse things get? Because you already have so much shit in your lungs and wind pipe there ain't no more room, and you can't swallow? That was the situation I found myself in. I couldn't inhale a breath to cough, couldn't swallow, and couldn't breathe. Oh, the air tube they had down my throat didn't help any either. And they wouldn't let me get my head down low enough to get the crap out. That was a fun experience.
Over all though, I kinda wonder how the staff at the hospital managed to put up with me. I wasn't real difficult, or a major pain I guess, but I couldn't get out of there soon enough, and let them know it. I was on a no salt, low fat diet, and some of the meds I have been taking have my tastebuds alllllllll screwed up. Even now, some days everything tastes the same, and I can't describe it to anyone, but it is horrible. I didn't weight a bunch when I went in, but lost about 5 pounds or so by the time I got out of there.
So here I am at home, still have to use oxygen, and probably will for the rest of my life, but at least I quit smoking, and now I'm down to about a half gallon of coffee a day rather than a full gallon. And I am supposed to get myself on a pretty much non fat, no salt diet. I realize the need to limit my salt intake, and I do need to get a few more veggies in me, but not many people that spout all this advice realize for the dentally challenged, just what that entails. Not having teeth is a major limiting factor in food choices. So fresh leafy greens, and a lot of other stuff is beyond my ability to get down my throat. Unless cut up into very tiny pieces. And I might add, fixing for just one person can be a challenge too. The last couple of days tho, cereal, peanut butter, and bread have been my staples. I do think a little later tho, I will fix a can of chicken soup, just for a change.
So I do feel better, in many ways, but I am not fully recovered. Getting there, but not yet. I run out of air with little exertion, so my house is in need of a house keeper. And for now anyway, travel is going to be limited. It isn't an experience I'd wish everyone to have, but it was an eye opener for me. What advice do I have for anyone at risk of the same things? I'm not gonna tell you anything more than what you have already been told. No need to, if you haven't taken that advise by now, nothing I say will do any good. YOU are the only person that can decide what you will do with your life.

Glad you are feeling better, Just take care of yourself,
Dec 20 @ 7:37AM
I'm glad that you're doing better, and that it wasn't too late for you. I think we all take our health for granted to some degree through life.
Continue getting better while doing all the right things.
Have you ever been in a situation where the more you cough, the worse things get?
Well, last January I got a nasty cold and just about lost my voice. After a few days of waiting to get my voice back strong again I decided to try a little something like a home remedy that I had read off the internet. It was cinnamon powder and honey. I accidently inhaled the powder cinnamon and coughed like crazy. I couldn't stop and it seemed to get worse. I finally managed to stop coughing. After that, I still get some coughing spells every now and then to where I think it's from the result of that powder cinnamon that caused some kind of long term effect in my throat and lungs. Hopefully this will eventually go away. Needless to say, I threw out that cinnamon powder.
After I experienced that I read more on the cinnamon powder and that a lot of younger adults seem to play this game with others as a challenge taking in a spoonful of it while videotaping themselves with others and posting it on youtube as funny clips. However, during a lot of those games, many of them had to call 911.
Anyway, glad that you're home and on the road to recovery. Hope to read more of your blogs on here.

Wheaton, MD (WUSA9) -- Montgomery County officials are hoping to discourage panhandling from medians and roads by asking motorists to stop giving money.
"It's not safe and it doesn't help," says County Council President George Leventhal.
Instead, Leventhal and County Executive Ike Leggett launched a new initiative Monday called "Give a Hand Up, Not a Hand Out."
They are encouraging motorists to text "SHARE" to 80077, which will automatically give a $5 donation to the Community Foundation of Montgomery County which provides food, shelter and counselling to homeless people.

May 3, 2016
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- The Utah Jazz have completed their coaching staff by hiring Sidney Lowe.
Lowe spent the past five seasons as head coach at his alma mater, North Carolina State.
He also was a teammate of Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin when they played for the Minnesota Timberwolves in 1989-90.
As a player, Lowe was a second-round pick of the Chicago Bulls. He appeared in 193 regular-season games over four NBA seasons with five different teams: Indiana, Detroit, Atlanta, Charlotte and Minnesota.
While at N.C. State, Lowe teamed with former Jazz player Thurl Bailey to lead the Wolfpack to the 1983 national championship.
He joins Scott Layden and Jeff Hornacek on the bench under Corbin, who took over late last season after Jerry Sloan's abrupt retirement.

Simple, Inexpensive Steps to Looking Younger
Plastic surgery and Botox aren't your only options
Saturday, August 18, 2012
It seems people have always been looking for the fountain of youth. Whether its expensive plastic surgery or Botox treatments, there is no shortage of procedures and treatments that promise to take years off your appearance.
You can spend a lot of money trying to look younger, or you can spend a little. If you decide on the latter course, here are some tips from dermatologists to get the best results.
"People often think that the more expensive a product is, the more effective it will be," said board-certified dermatologist Susan C. Taylor, MD, FAAD, founding director of the Skin of Color Center at St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals in New York. "That's not always the case. People need to shop smart since there are some very effective, affordable products in the skin care aisles of their local stores."
Sunscreen for everyday use
For example, Taylor suggests wearing sunscreen every day, not just when you go to the beach. The sun can accelerate signs of aging, no matter where you are exposed to it.
Taylor recommends a sunscreen or facial moisturizer that offers broad-spectrum protection and has an SPF of at least 30. Be sure to apply sunscreen to all skin that is not covered by clothing.
Obviously if you are wearing sunscreen every day, you're trying to avoid getting a tan. Tan people do not age well. Getting a tan from the sun or a tanning bed exposes you to harmful UV rays that can accelerate aging, causing wrinkles, age spots, a blotchy complexion and even skin cancer.
Dollar for dollar, perhaps the most efficient anti-aging product is moisturizer. Moisturizing traps water in the skin, which can help reduce the appearance of some fine lines and make your complexion look brighter and younger.
Be careful with new products
Don't be a guinea pig for new products. Test them on a small part of your body, like your inner forearm, twice a day for four or five days. If you do not have a reaction, it is likely safe for you to apply to your face.
When you do use an anti-aging product, use it as directed. Sometimes active ingredients can do more harm than good when too much is used. Applying more than directed can cause clogged pores, a blotchy complexion, or other unwanted effects.
Be sensitive to reactions. If you use a product and it stings or burns, stop using it until you consult with a dermatologist. Some products prescribed by a dermatologist may cause stinging or burning. When under a dermatologist's care, this can be safe and effective. Ordinarily, however, you want to avoid products that sting, since irritating the skin makes signs of aging more noticeable.
Finally, don't go overboard on anti-aging products. Using too many products on your skin, especially more than one anti-aging product, tends to cause irritation. This often makes signs of aging more noticeable.
"It's very important that people allow time for the product to work. While a moisturizer can immediately plump up fine lines, most products take at least six weeks to work and sometimes it can take three months," said Dr. Taylor. "See a dermatologist if after following these tips you still do not see the expected results," Taylor said.

Jacob Love was barely a week old when his pediatrician detected a mild heart murmur and an unusual weight gain. During a subsequent visit a few days later, the pediatrician noted that Jacob had gained 1 pound in a week —an even more concerning development — so she sent him to Johns Hopkins Children's Center for evaluation and testing.
At Hopkins Children's, Jacob underwent a few basic heart tests plus an echocardiogram, an ultrasound of the heart. Within 30 minutes of the ultrasound, pediatric cardiologist Reid Thompson informed Jacob's parents that their son had multiple heart defects including a ventricular septal defect (a hole between the two ventricles), mild regurgitation of the tricuspid valve, mitral valve stenosis, aortic arch hypoplasia and, the most serious, coarctation of the aorta. Coarctation, or narrowing, of the aorta, can take a severe toll on the heart and lead to serious problems if not fixed early on.
WATCH A Tribute from the Heart, the Loves' video thank-you note to the cardiology team at Hopkins Children's
Jacob needed surgery and needed it fast. As cardiologists and surgeons drafted a strategy for his procedure, Jacob was taken to the pediatric emergency room and then to the pediatric intensive-care unit (PICU) where he was given intravenous medications to temporarily relieve the fluid build-up and pressure on his lungs caused by the narrowed aorta and his overworked heart. Shortly before surgery, Jacob was baptized in the PICU. Then he was wheeled into the operating room where his parents gave him a kiss goodbye and headed to the waiting area, where they were surrounded by family and friends.
Luckily, Jake wouldn't need an open-heart surgery. The pediatric cardiology team was able to perform a minimally invasive procedure, accessing Jake's heart through his left side. The surgery was a great success and Jacob was wheeled back into the PICU where he started recuperating quickly. Jacob's cardiac surgeon Luca Vricella and his cardiologist, Reid Thompson, patiently explained what had been done and the road that lies ahead. In the immediate aftermath of the surgery, the Loves were hopeful, scared and uncertain at the same time.
"It was a sleepless whirlwind of emotion coupled with uncertainty and the burning desire to trust what was being said," said Jacob's father, Patrick. "The patience, scholarship and willingness to teach that we encountered at Hopkins Children's really helped us in this desire to trust, and were not let down."
Jacob's recovery has gone well. He only comes to Hopkins Children's for routine appointments with Dr. Thompson. The cardiology team's strategy was to immediately fix the most serious problem, while allowing the child's body to repair the other problems naturally. Indeed, Jacob's ventricular septal defect closed spontaneously — which is not that uncommon —and the other problems are being managed conservatively with medication.
"We are grateful to Dr. Thompson, Dr. Vricella and all the other many doctors and nurses whose care helped ensure that Jacob will continue to live, thrive and grace our lives with his beautiful heart," said his mom, Jessica.

We Had to Celebrate
Exile is a persistent feeling within the human condition because our sin has destroyed the intimacy with God that we once experienced in the Garden of Eden. God sent Jesus, our true elder brother, all the way to earth to rescue us from the exile of our sin and restore us to full communion with God. When we take the Lord's Supper, we get a taste of the future homecoming feast for all believers when we will celebrate the return of full intimacy between God and us.

Tax gap rises by £1bn, HMRC reports
HMRC estimated this week that the tax gap for 2011/12 increased to £35bn, up £1bn on 2010/11.
Overall, however, there was a slight decrease in tax gap as a percentage of tax liabilities, down from 7.1% last year to 7% this year.
The reason for the increase of £1bn is down to a £1.5bn increase in the VAT gap, which was offset by...

What is the point of
having a tax gap when it is "made up". Tax evasion cannot be quantified by any means, nor can the black economy. What's done is done. We shouldn't forget that most illgoten gains will nearly always find their way back into the real economy. Tax avoidance has a better chance of being estimated, but if it's legal (which avoidance stands for) then it cannot be counted. So we are left with "Debtors" of which 25% is probably penalties. If Government said we are owed x in tax and we have collected y so we are going to do z to get the difference, then you know where you are. I have a feeling that the collection department is not doing too well so they can hide what they haven't recovered with these silly "gap" figures.
Political non sense
Political non sense.
"To reduce the tax gap just lower the budgeted income figure!"
Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive!
How much tax should have been collected if HMRC did its Job well that's a different figure all together.
That's what happens
every time you mix tax with politics: GIGO
Statistics, statistics
It's a bit like trying to work out the volume of the sea whilst bailing out a sinking ship. And about as useful.

The U.S. is currently is involved in several bilateral free trade negotiations – including talks with Pacific Rim and European Union nations. National Pork Producers Council President Randy Spronk says through the Trans-Pacific Partnership there's an opportunity to double trade with Japan, which already stands at $2 billion of annual pork sales.
As for the European Union – he says this is the second largest consumer group in the world – but the U.S. pork industry has been restricted from exporting product to the EU due to trade blocks.
NPPC wants free trade between the U.S. and EU which would add value for U.S. pork producers.

The keynote speaker was author and "Good Morning America" contributing editor Lee Woodruff, wife of journalist Bob Woodruff, the television anchor who was seriously injured while covering the war in Iraq several years ago.
Greenwich resident and Woodruff's dear friend, Jessica Guff, who first met the Woodruffs while working at GMA, was there with one of her college pals, political analyst, PR maven and Harvard grad Duby McDowell.
So needless to say, McDowell was one of the VIPs at the post-luncheon reception and reunion for Guff and Woodruff.
Are you still following this?
Guff insisted there were no wild McDowell tales to tell from their Harvard days, and Woodruff was just happy to see Guff. So happy in fact that she was giving her gal pal a limo ride back to Greenwich.
And along the way Guff, who now works for herself, shared news of a potential new game show that may be yet another Connecticut production.
"We're working with Self magazine and it would be a game show about good health," said Guff, who was in the right seat at the right time at lunch. New state comptroller Kevin Lembo was at her table and was more than happy to pitch the tax incentives the state offers to such ventures.
More than 1,200 people attended the luncheon, which featured Woodruff's stories about her husband's injuries and miraculous recovery, a story that was detailed in the couple's bestselling book "In an Instant." Lee Woodruff also has written a second book, "Perfectly Imperfect: A Life in Progress."
Among the "who's who" in the crowd was Linda McMahon, still keeping mum on her plans for running for that soon up-for-grabs U. S. Senate seat but who has become a regular on the Hartford event circuit.

I consider myself a pretty laid back driver. I've never flipped a bird at another motorist for cutting me off.
Nor have I F-bombed someone for tailgating, driving 10 klicks an hour on the Trans-Canada Highway, or near-missing me in the Costco parking lot.
Such incidents just don't raise my ire or rile me up, probably because I'm far from a perfect driver and I know all too well about mistakes being human.
However, when I'm behind the wheel, there is one thing that drives me absolutely rank and into a fit of road rage every single time - a backhoe bringing rush-hour traffic to a snail's pace.
Grrrrrrrr. ... Wait, let's go all-caps to really convey my frustration. ... GGGGRRRRRRRRRR.
Despite my growl, I still don't swirl the old middle digit or scream fuddle duddle towards the blasted backhoe. But my blood curdles, and whenever there's a passenger, they'll hear me say, "Look at THIS! It should not be allowed."
A few years ago, when I worked in another area of town, there was a backhoe on the route to my office every morning after 8 a.m.
I'd leave early or late to avoid being stuck behind it and going ape poop.
The problem is even worse these days, though.
There seems to be more backhoes riding the road, likely because of all the development on the Northeast Avalon, and being stuck behind one once a week or more is unavoidable.
And I'm not the only one bothered by it. The local Twitter hashtag #nltraffic regularly features 140-character rants from people stuck behind a backhoe, and everyone I speak to about it feels my pain.
No one has ever sided with the boys in the backhoes.
Now, I realize the value of what backhoes and their operators do for progress and problems. I dig it (pun intended).
Also, I'm 100 per cent in support of these hard-working guys making money - hey, I want them to all earn gazillions of dollars - but I just wish they weren't on the road in peak traffic.
And, seriously, all that frustration mounting in the long line of motorists slowed by a backhoe undoubtedly raises the risk of accidents.
It's my understanding - and I could be wrong - the traffic laws that apply to backhoes aren't quite clear. There are rules against obstructing traffic, but also against a vehicle driving at speeds that exceed its capability.
So, I propose a new, simple, traffic bylaw that should be enacted by cities and towns in the metro region - no backhoes on the street between 8 and 9 a.m.
Operators might get their backhoes up and say such a rule violates their rights.
While I agree they have rights, one of them is not the right to impede traffic or make other drivers explode.

Hi again Clarington.
Not sure i like the sound of "delightfully nasty soup" The top of the compost heap is perfect but if it is too wet then add plenty of torn up brown cardboard or egg boxes.
I am sure they will love it. Watch out for wanderers until they settle in (couple of days) Not sure if they will enjoy the travel to their new home so they might be a little restless.
Perhaps soup wasn't the best of words! The vegetable scraps have started to break down and go soft rather than their perky little selves. I'll be sure to add some cardboard in if it looks too damp.
I'm not sure I'd be too impressed at being thrown in a box and bounced around in the back of a van!
Just checked the tracking device. They HAVEN'T left it by the gate as requested (I left a secure box to put them in). Looks like I'll have to hope they left a "collect from here" note as I'm worried if they don't redeliver tomorrow morning (unlikely being a Saturday) the poor devils will NOT be happy waiting until Monday!!
This will show that I'm not really 27.
Opodildoc pronounced oppo dill dock is an old name for Soap liniment BP. Mixed 50/50 with glycerin and then used to soak feet.
Hope that helps Kef. Please don't ask me for Borax and Honey for sore throats, although I used to make a brill five haporths.(Can't get the ingredients these days... no red poppy syrup.)
What a coincidence Punkdoc .... This year I will be 50, will celebrate my 20th wedding anniversary, and was taken to Venice for my 40th/10th wedding anniversary. You're not Mr Chicky in some sort of elaborate disguise are you?
To find out if you are, I need to know whether your first thought for a special birthday/anniversary celebration was to take your wife to Madrid to see a Real/Barcelona game ?? Luckily he ran the idea past my Mum first, who put him right
Very generously, I agreed to go with him to Madrid for el Classico the following year - turned out to be a true classic - with Beckham, Zidane, Figo, Messi and Ronaldino all on the pitch at the same time ......some, before they were famous
If you want the formula....
opodeldoc was a synonym for soap liniment BP and it was popular among the older generation for rubbing on chapped hands when mixed with an equal part of glycerin (or glycerol, as we must now call it).
opodeldoc's pharmacopoeial formula calls for powdered soap 60g, camphor 45g, oil of rosemary 10ml, alcohol 700ml and enough water to make it up to one litre.
You've next to no chance or buying camphor or camphorated spirit but some private chemists will still stock soap liniment and bottles of glycerin/glycerol
I remember vick Kef, and mum used to make some concoction for flu I think it was,....with my head over a bowl of steaming hot stuff, with a towel over my head.
Just got back from SM and a little acer jumped into my trolley, it was only £3! It is quite small. Will take a pic later.
These plants in SM's are almost as cheeky as the ones in the GC Lily
Did you get any panda, or were you a good girl
Here's a pic of my new little acer Not bad for £3 will let it harden off and then pot it outside
I got six little strawberry plants Lily They jumped in too
Acer looks lovely.
Oooh strawberry plants, must get some of those. Lost mine this winter with all the rain.
Spooky, Chicky. No I did not take OH to Madrid, but did go with the lads a few years ago.
She did once agree to come to White Heart Lane, to see what all the fuss was about, but that did cost me dinner at Marcus Wareings.
For her 40th. we went to St. Lucia, but could not quite afford something like that this time.
Like the Acer SGL., a bargain I think. I have a few that I have grown from seed, but they are 5 years old and only about 18 inches tall.
Spent most of yesterday taking plants out of greenhouse, today it is so cold I am almost tempted to put them back in.
Here is a pic of my alpine planter - hope you like it
And one of my hanging baskets I did at the Hillier workshop
Please can you all send some sunshine for tomorrow over the New Forest area in Woodgreen for the village hall plant sale
Hello folks - I'm back from visiting the Aged Ps - Ma fine, loved her flowers, will open presents tomorrow on the big day itself. Pa has another chest infection poor chap - GP will prescribe some antibiotics.
Now I'd better have a read back and check up on everyone .............
Has anyone else noticed how foward things are this year? Some of my 2013 photos compared to this year are crazy, no less my climbing rose Paul Scarlet that has two blooms on it in April!!!
Wintersong - i am sorry to say i keep a diary of when all my favourite plants come out (i know, i should get out more) - this year is a good month to 6 weeks ahead of 2013 ..... But 2013 was very late. No roses blooming here - but buds visible
Punkdoc - i got 3 visits round Madrid Art galleries, without one cross word or raised eyebrow, in exchange for our night at the Bernebeu. Good deal methinks
Oh Dove, is it your ma's birthday tomorrow, very best wishes x
Thanks for the good wishes Chicky.
back home now and a glass of wine .
An old fashioned occasion, plenty of jellied eels and cockles.
Hope you pick a good tree AWB. Its a lovely way to remember friends
Lovely planter gardengirl.
Hugs AWB.

(briefly NSFW) Stylish man whines about becoming a f*ck toy.
(via) You see, ever since our ironically-complaining hero refreshed his wardrobe at Jack & Jones, piggish women grab his ass (but not his cock—like in this nsfw Tom Ford ad), wait for him on the stairs, swarm him in the pool, make him wear bunny ears, and fuck him so fucking hard—two at a time—they break his bed. They're some funny details in this commercial via Copenhagen ad agency & Co. But, the reverse sexism execution, copy, and tone are just too heavy-handed. Could have been a decent subtle spot.

One Track Sunday: Britney Spears And will.i.am Scream & Shout
By Jessica Rawden 3 years ago
Britney Spears has turned 31 today, but her birthday is just the icing on the cake of a pretty spiffy year. Miss Spears has had a lot to celebrate in 2012. Shes spent the year engaged to Jason Trawick, she defeated her former manager in court, and she nabbed a judging gig on Foxs hit show, The X Factor. Speaking of the latter, during Thursdays show, the songstress released a video with will.i.am called Scream & Shout.
The track is the third single off of will.i.ams upcoming fourth studio album, #willpower (mind the hashtag). Its a song that finds its main strength in vocal repetitionalthough I especially appreciate the line Its Britney, bitch which first appeared on Spears epic Blackout Album. The video itself features dancing and a little bit of technology integration with computers and cameras popping up onscreen (product placement!). Mostly, however, it focuses on multiples copies of will.i.am and Spears moving across the screen. The clone-based video is so strange, Spears seemed a little abashed when it premiered during Foxs hit singing competition show.
Maybe she just doesnt like all of the added attention, or then again, maybe she just knew it wasnt the greatest video the world has every proffered to music fans. At the end of the day, will.i.ams fourth studio effort has dealt with numerous delays, and fans should be happy it's finally coming together. Spears is not the only collaborator on #willpower, which also includes Alicia Keyes, David Guetta, Jennifer Lopez, Demi Lovator, Justin Bieber and many, many more. The extensive effort will hit homes on February 4, 2013.
