Keeping Your GI Tract on Track
Admission to the GI Unit
When you come to the Gastroenterology Unit, you will need to fill out a
Patient Pre-Admission Questionnaire
. This is used by our staff to obtain a patient's medical history and list of current medications. Please provide this information to us two weeks before your examination.
For your convenience, this form may be filled out
, or you may
print/fill out a form
than can be faxed to the GI Unit.
Click here to access the Patient Pre-Admission Questionnare
Your physician's office should give you instructions whether you should take your medications the day of the exam. This includes over the counter medications and herbal supplements. Always check with your physician before stopping any medications. In most cases, aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E and blood thinning products should be held at least a week prior to the procedure. These medications thin the blood and may result in bleeding if biopsies are taken during your exam. The doses of other medications (such as insulin, oral hypoglycemic agents, blood pressure and cardiac medications) may be modified or held the day of the examination. You will be given written instructions when you may resume your medications at discharge. Be sure to inform your physician if you require antibiotics before dental or similar procedures. This may also be required before a colonoscopy or endoscopy.
We are very sensitive to our patients' concern about privacy. After registration, you will be brought to a private prep room to change into hospital garb where a nurse will check your vital signs, document your medical history and review the procedure and discharge instructions. You will then be taken to a private room for your procedure. The door remains closed at all times during your exam. After the procedure, you will be brought to the recovery area where your vitals signs are monitored closely as you wake from the sedation. There are curtains enclosing each stretcher area. If you are uncomfortable or embarrassed about your exam, please indicate these concerns to your nurse and doctor. We make every effort to ensure our patients are treated with respect.
Sedation is the use of medications to provide relaxation and comfort to patents undergoing endoscopic procedures. A physician, an anesthesiologist or a registered nurse may administer these medications. Your vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen levels) are monitored continuously during the procedure and recovery period to assure your safety. Sedation is very safe for most people. Your physician will need to know your medical history, the names and doses of any medications you take, including over the counter and herbal preparations, and if you have any drug allergies. This information is important for the physician to plan what type and dose of sedation is right for you. After the procedure, you may experience some amnesia as a result of the sedation and may feel relaxed for several hours after discharge. You are advised not to drive, drink alcohol or perform any tasks requiring mental awareness for the rest of the day.
A polyp is a small "wart-like" growth, which may grow on the lining of the colon. Most polyps are benign, but some can be pre-cancerous and may grow into tumors. If a polyp is seen during the colonoscopy, the physician will remove it using special forceps or a polyp snare. Cautery may also be used. This is painless to the patient. The polyp is then sent to the pathology lab for biopsy and results are usually available within a week. You will be given specific instructions how to get these results. As a result, the physician will advise you to repeat your exam in two or three years to monitor any further polyp growth.

from Joanne Fluke's Lake Eden Cookbook
¾ cup melted butter (1 and ½ sticks)
1 cup sugar
2 beaten eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (no need to thaw if frozen)
2 cups + 1 Tblsp. flour (no need to sift)
½ cup milk
½ cup blueberry pie filling
Crumb Topping
½ cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
¼ cup butter, softened (1/2 stick)
Preheat oven at 3750, with rack in middle position.
Grease the bottoms only of 12-cup muffin pans (or line cups with double cupcake papers)
Put 1 Tblsp. flour in a baggie or bowl with your cup of fresh or frozen blueberries.
Shake or toss gently to coat the blueberries and set them aside for now.
Melt the butter. Mix in the sugar. Add beaten eggs, baking powder, and salt.
Mix thoroughly.
Add half of the remaining 2 cups flour to the bowl and mix it in with half of the milk.
Then add the rest of the flour and the milk and mix thoroughly.
Add ½ cup of blueberry pie filling and mix it in. (Dough will turn a shade of blue but once the muffins are baked, they'll look just fine.)
When the dough is thoroughly mixed, fold in the flour-coated fresh or frozen blueberries.
Fill muffin tins three-quarters full and set them aside. Makes 19-21 muffins.
Crumb topping: Mix the sugar and the flour in a small bowl. Add the softened butter and cut in until it's evenly crumbly. (Could also be done in a food processor with chilled butter and the steel blade.)
Fill the remaining space in the muffin cups with the crumb topping. Bake the muffins at 3750 for 25-30 minutes.
When the muffins are baked, set the muffin pan on a wire rack to cool for at least 30 minutes (muffins need to cool in the pan for easy removal). When cooled, just tip out the muffins and enjoy.
Blueberry flavor will intensify if you store them in a covered container overnight – if you can wait that long!

I installed Zimbra 7.0.1 on a CentOS 5.5 64bit machine to use it to sync email/calendar with blackberry devices.
i followed this Guide:
BES is running on a Windows 2008 SBS Server with Service Pack 2.
I then tried to add a user (which exists on Zimbra Server) on the BlackBerry Webconsole, but it says it cant find the user.
I'm new to Zimbra and Blackberry, and i guess zimbra and BES does not sync, but i dont know where to find log information about the syncing prozess.
Any suggestions ?

I for one wonder if Coach C isn't a little surprised at the lack of depth at just about every position at a D-1 school like Iowa State. I'm optimistic about the future, but look at what he faces
-patched together offensive line. Who knows what position these guys will end up playing and who will play.
-No reliable known running back. We have to count on a JC coming in or someone hurt most of the time.
-defensive backfield that was in complete disarray last season, especially the end of the year. JC's need to help a lot
-defensive line-among the smallest in the Big 12 if not THE smallest
-quarterback that must be taught to look at the entire field after running a zone offensive system that limited his options
Chizik needs some magic to pull all of this together. He's definately the man for the job, but he will need time and recruits.
I agree with about everything you got there. That is why we must take next season with a grain of salt. If we hit .500 I'll have to call it a small victory. Anything more that that will be sweet, but I'm not holding my breath.
Welcome to reality. I've been saying all along that 4-5 wins is my prediction yet I'd seen 6-9 win predictions by optimists. This team has holes and changing coaches is not going to make this team a top tier team overnight. It will take 2-3 years at least to even get back to thinking about Big 12 North title again I think.

What is this "kicking game" that you speak of?
Chizik gets a free pass this year and it will likely be the toughest year of the next 3.
I liked his comment on the first day of practice, we are going to find out what guys here are actually football players. I think he knows that the talent level isn't that great.
I really dont think he is surprised. First off he coached against us this past season, and has scouted our team from the moment he set foot on the campus to take over the job. You dont sign 5 linemen because you feel like it, he saw a weekness and confronted it the best he could.
Sure we got our weeknesses, but there is thankfully some experience just about everywhere except the OL. Sometimes experience pays off over pure talent.
RB there really isnt a lack of depth, just there isnt a clear front runner for the position at this point. We are all counting on Bass to make a huge splash, but Scalse or others could make a move. With the move of Jason Harris back to the RB position is does question the talent of the returners, but you cant rule them out until everyone reports for the new year this summer.
Just my two cents
"You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace." -- Ernie Banks
Don't forget Mac's first year - a rb known only for a kickoff return for a TD who played little in his freshman year burst onto the scene. Who will be this years overlooked talent and be the "Troy Davis"?
OK, someone will come out of the woodwork and be a contributer, maybe. It was a question that I asked last Fall. How, after 12 years, do you have to rebuild a unit? How, after 12 years, is there no depth? How, after 12 years, are there so few impact players on the team?
Even accepting the "we're just Iowa State, and we should be happy with Shreveport." argument, how badly has the program been managed when we're this thin? It isn't like Gene is our 4th coach in the past 12 years, we have had one person running things.
I know that he avoided responsibility with spin, and excuses, and people bought it, but wow. But thanks to all, I am finding it amusing reading these posts.

As I was traipsing around Manhattan on a very dismal lunchbreak, it occurred to me that a gallery of excellent rain boots might have been more prudent for the day's shopping guide. I considered sitting on this gallery of nude shoes–pumps, wedges, sandals, flats–and posting it on a day when one might actually consider the perfect nude shoe for an outdoor cocktail party or some sort of gathering that occurs in the sun. But… that's the way the cookie crumbles, I guess. More

|WVFD battles pickup fire
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Monday, 08 July 2013 16:49
The Wauneta Volunteer Fire Department responded to a pickup engulfed in flames Friday evening on the south side of town. The firemen put out the fire before any other property was damaged. (Diane Stamm | The Wauneta Breeze)
By Sheri Hink-Wagner
The Wauneta Breeze
Wauneta Volunteer Firemen responded to a call Friday evening stating that a pickup was on fire in the lot by Bob's Repair in south Wauneta.
Fire Chief Bob Goings stated the vehicle was not being worked on at the shop, but had pulled in there off the roadway.
Goings said when the WVFD arrived the pickup was engulfed in flames.
Members of the fire department made quick work of putting out the fire.
Bob's Repair owner, Bob Jones, also a WVFD responder, said the pickup was owned by Frank Sowers.
Jones said Sowers told him he had just filled the pickup with fuel and pulled into the lot when the engine compartment started on fire.
Jones said his shop was not damaged in the blaze.
The Chase County Sheriff's department also responded to the incident but were unavailable to comment.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Marshall Henderson shook out of a shooting slump and scored 17 points in the second half, leading 12th-seeded Mississippi past No. 5 Wisconsin 57-46 on Friday, giving the Rebels their first NCAA tournament win since 2002.
For the cold-shooting Badgers (23-12), the upset loss snaps a string of six straight first-game victories. Ole Miss (27-8) trailed 25-22 at halftime and Henderson, who led the Southeastern Conference with 20 points a game, had only two points on one-for-11 shooting.
But the flamboyant and outspoken guard found his touch just in time for Ole Miss, and wound up hitting 6 of 21. His back-to-back 3-pointers tied it 36-36 and his layup and two free throws in the final minute sealed the win.
Reginald Buckner had nine points and 12 rebounds. Sam Dekkar had 14 points for Wisconsin.
In the third round of the West Regional on Sunday, the Rebels will play the winner of the matchup between No. 4 seed Kansas State and No. 13 La Salle.

Umm Is Alliance version of Invading/Landing Northern Barrens available?
War is deception, a game played best from the shadows!
In comparison to the Horde one it's incredibly underwhelming. Kosak tweeted about it a while ago so they're aware most people are unsatisfied with. Although he perhaps got the wrong impression with it. The espionage stuff is fine, it's just not on par with the Horde one by any degree.
Hopefully there will be some fixes but it seems a like there won't be due to the age of the current. PTR
War is deception, a game played best from the shadows!
I mean its time for Horde to show its power and unite again. SoO is Horde's story Alliance is just using a perfect moment to get rid of worst enemy. They even planned to attack all horde (Garrosh and Vol'jin) when they weaken themselves, but hopefully that wont happen.
I'm Alliance fanboy, but still I understand why they made Horde look more epic. If it was happening to Alliance for example if Varian was like Garrosh, surely Alliance would play bigger role then horde in killing/Capturing him.

The only reason my review is average is because it took three weeks to get to me which was unacceptable but it got here in the end, im just glad my partner finally has it!

When I met my boyfriend this was the only scent he had, so I have very fond memories attached with it. When he ran out of it I found myself missing it when I hugged him. This is a must buy cologne. Dont let the name fool you. This cologne has mans man in mind when your boyfriend or husband walks into a room.

How frustrated are the top lady ballers about the WTA's new Road Map 2010?
Well, Dinara Safina dropped a hint after her 6-2, 7-6 loss to Vera Zvonareva in the Moscow semifinals on Saturday:
If they [WTA] don't listen to what we have to say, we might even choose to boycott the new tour. They said the leading players would have to play in designated tournaments while lower-ranked players would be able to enter any event they like. There's no logic in that at all.Svetlana Kuznetsova also chimed in about her feelings about the revamped schedule:
What if all the top players choose to enter the same tournament? What will the WTA do then? We want to know.
A boycott is a very serious matter and not something to just throw out there lightly. But the Roadmap has some grey areas and forcing these ballers to play tourneys is always a little tricky because if they don't want to play, they won't play and they'll eat the fines.
I was told only two players from the top 10 could enter a smaller tournament like the Kremlin Cup next year.
What if [No. 1-ranked] Jelena Jankovicand Serena or Venus [Williams] want to play here? Then all the top Russian players, and there are five of us in the top 10, will not be able to play in their home tournament. That's nonsense.
Questions do remain: How involved were the baller reps in the development of Roadmap 2010? Plus, did the WTA Tour and the ballers, or at the very least the baller reps and Tour, have a major sit down since the Roadmap was announced to breakout this new schedule and answer any questions or concerns??
From the outside it seems like a very disjointed process where the WTA is making important decisions without real input from the ballers - a certain recipe for disaster.

TAMPA, FL -- The summer is generally a terrible time to buy a TV, but an extremely rare price drop of Olympic proportions makes today an exception.
If you cannot wait until Black Friday, I would strongly consider making a purchase from the list below. These are terrific sets catering from basic to advanced television needs.
If you're convinced the Super Bowl will be a better time to buy, I strongly disagree given the lame performance we saw from retailers this past year and the year before that.

Ned Yost media session: August 20
Before tonight's 6:10 matchup against the Boston Red Sox, Ned Yost explained the reasoning behind starting infielder Chris Getz at second base rather than rookie Johnny Giavotella. Since being called up on August 5th, Giavotella has started every game for the Royals at second, while Getz has yet to make a start. He has made just four appearances since Giavotella was promoted, and has just one at-bat.
"He [Giavotella] has played every day since he's been here. Getz has played four innings, two innings here and two innings there as a defensive replacement," Yost said. "It's a chance to get "Getzy" in the game."
Yost mentioned that Getz, who has seen his playing time diminish with the addition of Giavotella, has started taking ground balls at shortstop and third base in order to crack his way into the lineup a bit more. The added versatility may allow Getz to fill in at shortstop or third when the Royals need to give Alcides Escobar or Mike Moustakas a day off.
The Royals will be facing veteran knuckleballer Tim Wakefield tonight. Wakefield is one win shy of 200 career victories, which would make him only the 108th pitcher in Major League history and 89th modern Major Leaguer (since 1900) to accomplish the feat. Wakefield, at 45 years and 18 days old, is the oldest active player in the Majors. Yost contributes Wakefield's longevity to his work ethic, as well as his style of pitching.
"He [Wakefield] is a guy that stays in tremendous shape. He's got a tremendous work ethic," Yost said. "He's a very smart guy, and a knuckleball doesn't take a whole lot out of your arm like a guy that throws sliders or breaking balls."
With the Royals having such a young lineup, and the limited number of knuckleballers in baseball, Yost discussed that most of the Royals players haven't ever faced a knuckleballer, let alone Wakefield. He thinks it will be interesting for those who have never faced a knuckleball to get a look at it. As for batting against a knuckleballer, this was all Yost had to say: "Just hit it. There's no real strategy for it."

Bell Super Helmet $0.00
If you look closely, under all that enduro-influenced design, you can see Bell's mid-century motorsport heritage in the Super Helmet. Subtly paying homage to a time when engines were restricted by their creator's ability and leather protective gear was quickly abandoned in favor of the much safer hard-shell Bell option.
And, just like that early protective headgear, the Super Helmet is intended to be fully compatible with goggles. A GoggleGuide permits you to easily manage eyewear regardless if you've opted for the safety of goggles on race day or sunglasses for a friendly post-work session with the crew. Included retention arms securely hold straps -- with or without the removable visor installed.
Unlike those first Bell helmets, on the other hand, the Super Helmets in-Mold construction is a far cry from the weighty and hot fiberglass buckets of yesteryear. A polycarbonate Microshell is bonded to an EPS foam liner during manufacturing that creates a super-strong overall structure. Internal reinforcements also allow Bell's designers to push the envelope of ventilation with numerous large intake and exhaust ports (25 to be exact).
If you'd like some more cold, hard data, the Super Helmet meets or exceeds both CE EN1078 and CPSC Bicycle safety standards. There are three sizes available; Large, Medium, and Small, with Bell's simple-to-adjust Speed Dial fit system used to comfortably and securely hold the Super in place. Against your skin, X-Static padding combines a quick-dry, soft surface with an anti-microbial coating to keep the Super smelling fresh ride after ride.
Lightweight Cam-lock Levers ensure quick and effortless fit adjustments, and its lightweight buckle is easy to release after an exhausting ride. Bringing the Super Helmet completely into the twenty-first century is an integrated camera mount. Now you can forgo cable ties and tape for POV recording. Bell offers the Super Helmet comes in multiple color options, including registered graphics.

one of the top of the market!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
great fit & design! all you imagine for the Price you pay
Great so far
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Just got the helmet and I used it on a few runs and it felt great! Light weight, vented very well and kept the sweat out of my eyes which was a huge bonus for me. Quality seems good but we'll see how it holds up. I was gonna wait for the super 2 full face but i decided to bite the bullet on this 'older' model and I think I made a good decision.
what the hell.met
hat head
done with a muddy ride and i love the extra coverage this helmet offers. The way the temple area of the helmets is kinda makes for some interference with while wearing sunnies.
Umm your face, yeah, you got a little somethin on there...
do not buy

not durable, bad quality, clips break, buy a poc or a tld

Fits snug and comfortable with room for sunglasses. Nice and cool on hot days and feels a lot more protective than the standard bike helmet.

Best Enduro Helmet Out There
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This helmet is perfect. It fits my head like a glove and provides solid protection all around my precious noggin. It doesn't look bulky at all like some helmets do. The Go Pro mount is removable if you aren't into that sort of thing (I'm not). My favorite feature of this helmet is that the visor is large enough to provide actual sun protection which is great for these long climbs in Park City and Moab. On the way down if the visor is getting in the way of how far ahead on the trail you can look, you can push it up completely out of your way with one hand. It might look a little silly but who cares? Sunglasses can sometimes get a little uncomfortable under this helmet due to how far down the sides of the helmet come but this is pretty rare. All in all I am very impressed with this helmet and would definitely recommend this to everyone.
do you ship to Guam, USA ?
do you ship to Guam, USA ?
Hey Aure,
I can see how the international policies can be a little confusing especially with US Territories like your home. But I double checked and Guam should be treated the same as Alaska and Hawaii as far as shipping goes, its just going to be a little more expensive to ship than shipping to the main land. Thanks for checking Brotha from Anatha Motha'Land!
Does more than just getting the job done
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
It is very comfortable on long rides and I have noticed less sweat over my eye's than my last helmet. I already tested its protectiveness (by accident). I slipped on a wet wood bridge and hit my temple area, hit it pretty hard (it hurt), left only with a small bruise, but the fall could have sent me to the ER (I think). So just to say the helmet stayed in place and will protect you like it should.
A Safe Bet.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I use this helmet as my daily driver XC lid. Light enough and vented enough for long days in the saddle with extended coverage for confidence when riding aggressively.
I doubt I will ever use the GoPro mount, goggle guides, or flip up visor but they all seem engineered well for the guy who wants them. If I am doing any riding worth filming or needing goggles, I am always using my full face helmet anyways. The flip up visor works really well though and I wish ski helmets had this feature.
The Speed Dial fit system works perfectly one handed. I like to put it on loose so it doesn't push down my sweat band and then I dial it in tight once it's on.
Sizing guide is accurate. I measure 57 and the medium fits well.
There is enough room to slide sunglass arms under the helmet comfortably.
Buy this helmet now if you are looking for the most protection short of a full face.
Sweet Helmet
My son absolutely loves this helmet. It is very comfortable and easy to adjust. The Go Pro mount is a nice feature. We will never use it, but it is a nice feature. It does come off quite easily! I highly recommend this helmet. Given the time that I retire my current helmet, I will pick one of these up myself.
can the camera mount be removed easily?
can the camera mount be removed easily?
It is held in by velco straps. Went to local bike shop at lunch and did just this. Removed it and tried on helmet. Piece o cake.

1 Comment
Been a KC fan since the days of the A's and I can not recall a longer period of time with a worse pitching staff than the last 5-6 years. Team is on pace to SHATTER the all-time record for blown saves in a year. If this is the best staff they could have broken spring training with, it is time to shut the doors and close up shop. I bleed Royal Blue in the summer, and frankly, I am out of blood.

Ottawa Senators, coach Paul MacLean offered his take on whether defenseman Eric Gryba was at fault
"(If I'm Eller), I'm really mad at player 61, whoever he is, because he passed me the puck in the middle of the rink when I wasn't looking," said MacLean. "That's always been a dangerous place as far as I know. Ever since I've been playing this game, that's a dangerous place to be — bad things happen.
"I think it's a hockey play that ended up going badly for Lars Eller."
Brandon Prust of the Montreal Canadiens respectfully disagrees with that assessment, as he told the media on Friday:
"It's a dirty hit. I've watched it over and over. He has the choice to hit him on his front shoulder but he chooses to go to his far shoulder. If you're going to go across the body like that, because you don't want that full contact, then you're going to hit him right in the face.
"Look at all the blood all over the ice. It's a dirty hit. He's got a broken face, so, it's a dirty hit."
"Yeah, he already showed enough disrespect over there. So we don't really care about what that bug-eyed fat walrus has to say."
Not that this series needed any help but why not add some spice. Love the playoffs.

Most chefs have to drive – or at least walk – to get to a farmers market. Cedar's executive chef Aaron McCloud just steps out the front door. Situated at the center of Washington, D.C.'s heavily trafficked Penn Quarter neighborhood, the FRESHFARM Market is open Thursday afternoons from late March until the end of December. Every week, McCloud takes a swing through the sprawl of stalls to source fresh produce and proteins for his New American focused menu. "We cook whatever's good that day," he says. "So we reprint the menu three or four times a week."
Strolling through the tables and tents, the smell of fresh cut flowers, a bounty of herbs, and wood smoke – courtesy of a mobile pizza oven – mix together to create an intoxicating blend. A violinist plays off to one side, his energetic melody intertwining with the chatter of shoppers and the clatter of commerce. McCloud first stops in at Gunpowder Bison & Trading Co. to look at some Delmonico steaks that he thinks might be a good entrée at dinner service that night. Ultimately, he decides to hold off on purchasing them until he sees what else is available this week.
After chatting with some farmers to find out whether they offer wholesale pricing for restaurants and to exchange contact information with vendors he hasn't worked with before, he picks up a two chunks of slightly nutty Piedmont cheese from Everona Dairy. But the purchase doesn't inspire him as a main course component. Then he comes across bags of stinging nettles at the Evensong Farm stand. "Maybe a quick sauté with these in some saffron butter and the Delmonico steaks," he thinks out loud. For good measure, he picks up two-dozen just-gathered eggs.
McCloud isn't the only one taking advantage of the just-harvested bounty on display today. "It's a chef-centric market," says Ann Harvey Yonkers, executive co-director FRESHFARM Markets. "There's always a plethora of white jackets shopping." Some of Washington, D.C.'s top chefs frequent this market, including Fiola's Fabio Trabocchi, Bibiana's Nicholas Stefanelli, Poste's Dennis Marron, and the chefs from José Andrés'ThinkFoodGroup restaurants. They don't just shop there – they're intimately involved. Many of them have done live cooking demos for the Chef At Market program, while two highly respected chefs sit on the board – Nora Pouillon from Restaurant Nora and Cathal Armstrong from Restaurant Eve.
If chefs can't make this Thursday market or are seeking out different vendors, they have plenty of choices. There are nearly 100 markets of varying size and frequency in and around the District. Chefs across the country are seeing their options expand on this front. Local Harvest, a searchable database of farmers markets, family farms, and sustainable producers, lists almost 6,000 farmers markets in the United States.

It may be I'm thinking about this the wrong way but here's how we're set up:
The inbound mail and the zimbra server are in the same network / subnet. Not all e-mail goes to Zimbra, just e-mails for a particular domain. The inbound server handles RBL, antivirus, spamassassin work etc. Zimbra server is running version 7.2.1
I'm increasingly having problems with Zimbra backscattering. Postfix / Zimbra is configured to reject with a 550 e-mails for non-existant domains, I temporarily punched a hole through our firewall to the zimbra server to confirm that it is configured correctly to reject with a 550, and also tested from other subnets.
The problem is that it's accepting carte blanch all e-mails that it gets from its own subnet and then when discovering they're for a non-existant account, sends out an Undelivered Mail message. I need to stop this from happening or I'm going to end up with problems. The amount of backscatter isn't too bad at the moment but is increasing. The subnet for the zimbra server is not in the list of subnets in zimbraMtaMyNetworks
My thoughts are I either:

Ways to Help > Your Gifts at Work > Patient & Donor Stories > Respiratory Stories > Jennifer Champy
Jennifer Champy, a registered nurse from Columbia, S.C., spent much of her childhood and adulthood in hospitals battling multiple conditions. She finally came to National Jewish Health, an experience that "profoundly changed" her life.
As a result of frequent respiratory infections, Jennifer had been placed on life-support 14 times and required oxygen therapy 24-hours a day. At the age of 29, she was diagnosed with atypical cystic fibrosis. Because she did not have the classic symptoms of the disease, she received changing diagnoses over the years, ranging asthma to a mycobacterial lung infection. Jennifer just wanted answers.
"I knew about the good reputation of National Jewish Health from my time as a nurse, and I wanted to go there," said Jennifer.
A year prior to coming to here, she began corresponding with Jerry A. Nick, MD, an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine. He is also Director of Adult Cystic Fibrosis Program at National Jewish Health, the largest adult cystic fibrosis clinic in the nation.
"He was like no other doctor I have had in my life," she said. "I had never seen him, yet he was so willing to help me."
When she arrived at National Jewish, doctors determined that she did have a mycobacterial infection, but it was not the cause of her lung problems.
"I had been taking intravenous antibiotics for ten long months," said Jennifer. "The doctors released me from doing them."
She also saw Dr. Nick, who was concerned because Jennifer's lung function didn't match her need for high amounts of oxygen.
"I credit my improved health status to his compassion, skill, knowledge and determination to get to the bottom of my health issues," she said.
Dr. Nick teamed with National Jewish Health cardiologist Darlene Kim, MD, who discovered a hidden condition – a hole in Jennifer's heart.
Jennifer underwent surgery to repair the hole, and it improved her health dramatically.
"I just never knew that you could breathe like that," she said. "I only need to be on oxygen at night. You can't imagine what a difference it makes – you're not gasping for air. Now I can go to the beach and swim in the ocean."
She also benefited from the comprehensive approach to care at National Jewish Health, seeing experts for vocal cord dysfunction and gastrointestinal issues. Dr. Nick continues to work with Jennifer's doctors in South Carolina on her care.
"The way that everything is set up at National Jewish Health – very few centers can compete," she said. "National Jewish Health saved my life."

text: Two safety rules that could save your life: 1. Receive warnings from the National Weather Service. Don't just depend on sirens. Have more than one way to receive warning like a cell/smart phone or weather radio. Sirens are used to warn those who are outdoors, and may not be loud enough to wake someone in the middle of the night. NOAA All-Hazards Weather Radio is like a smoke detector that will produce a loud sound when a tornado warning is issued by the National Weather Service in the area. 2. Know what to do. The safest place to survive killer tornadoes is in approved storm shelters. The next safest is an interior room on the lowest floor of a building. Cover up with blankets, pillows and/or mattresses. Abandon a mobile home. If there is no shelter available, lie flat in a nearby ditch covering the head and neck. The Perkins County Sheriff's Office, Perkins County E-911/Communications Center and Perkins County Emergency Management Agency has instituted the CodeRED Emergency Notification System—an ultra high-speed telephone service for emergency notifications. Examples: Drinking water contamination, utility outage, evacuation notice and route, missing person, fires or floods, bomb threat, hostage situation, chemical spill or gas leak.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
It all began with a television producer's phone call asking KraftMaid to help a deserving family in need of a fresh start. Seasons later, we are proud to remain the exclusive cabinetry provider of ABC's award-winning program, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Episode 12The Anderson Family
In March 2000, Rodney Anderson of South Central Los Angeles was on his way to the NBA and a degree in social work, thanks to a full basketball scholarship from California State University at Fullerton (CSUF). On a rare day off from practice, he came home to have dinner with his family. Afterwards, he went for a walk – the last time he would do so. Gang members approached Rodney and shot him in the back, thinking he was a rival gang member, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down, with little movement in his arms.
Since the accident, it has been a constant struggle for Rodney and his family. His mother, Martha, had to quit her job and his sister, Glenda, moved into the small, dilapidated house in order to care for Rodney, who is now 22 years old. A year to the day of Rodney's accident, his father, Joe, was involved in a car accident and had to have three toes amputated. During his recovery period, the family was in dire financial need.
With the help of the KraftMaid Passport Series, Rodney now has a fully functional wheelchair accessible kitchen.

Move Over, Tile: 5 Backsplashes Made of Sheet Materials
Kitchen Inspiration
Most commonly, we think of backsplashes as finished in tile, generally installed in individual pieces or, in the case of mosaics, in 12x12 mesh-backed squares. The installation can be daunting for DIY installers, what with the adhesive, grout, spacers, and sealant to consider. (Hire someone to do it for you and the expense can really add up.) As an alternative, check out these ideas for using sheet goods on backsplashes:
Sheet goods can be (but aren't necessarily) easier to install, have a clean, streamlined look, and eliminate grout lines that are particularly vulnerable in wet kitchen spaces and can be difficult to keep clean.
→ For an aspirational take on the solid backsplash idea, check out these stone slab backsplashes.

|Authors of World War II book plan signing Dec. 8 at Inklings
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Dr. John Elliff and Denny Dressman, authors of "Sterling Heroes of World War II," will be in Holyoke at Inklings Book Store's Christmas Tea Saturday, Dec. 8, starting at 9 a.m.
Their book was launched July 4 this year, and the two look forward to signing copies in Holyoke this weekend.
"Sterling Heroes" is a unique collection of first-person accounts of World War II service.
Thirty-six men from Sterling and surrounding Logan County shared their very personal experiences in video-recorded interviews conducted by Elliff, a Sterling ophthalmologist who is now retired. Beginning in 2000, Elliff's project spanned more than 10 years.
Elliff engaged longtime journalist and author Dressman to edit transcripts of the interviews and produce a remarkable history of the period that touched the lives of all Americans.
Dressman has been in the newspaper business 43 years and has authored four books.
Dressman said the collection of veterans in "Sterling Heroes" represents a remarkable microcosm of America during the war years of the early 1940s. "As it was Lived—in their own Words" aptly describes this book of World War II experiences.

Race Gap In Schools Less in W.Va.
February 17, 2013
There's a large gap in academic achievement between black students and their white counterparts in U.S. schools. Beyond any doubt that contributes to the income gap between black and white adults....
Something wrong here- We have been told that Desegregation of schools would solve this. That decision came out way back in 1954. Now they are blaming it on poverty etc.

Even though he was found not guilty of first-degree murder in May 2012, Lil Boosie is still serving out a sentence for drug possession while behind bars. Now, in an exclusive interview with Spin, Boosie speaks on his time in jail and his plans after his release from prison.
Boosie discussed the trials of jail, saying that the love of his family and fans has helped him cope with his sentence. He also added that he feels his mission in life is yet to be completed, and that his time in jail has driven him to reinvent himself as both an artist and a person.
"I've coped by knowing in my heart that I'm someone special who many people love. If you lose hope in yourself, you'll make your time hard," he said. "I always felt that my mission wasn't complete. I feel I haven't reached the star power that was destined for me. That makes me keep writing and thinking of ways to better myself as a man and artist...this situation forced me to look at things differently. I had to suffer to learn things about myself, those surrounding me, and God. He put me through this pain for me to come back stronger."
Boosie also spoke on his post-prison plans, saying that he's written close to 500 songs that he believes to be some of the best of his career. He also discussed his plans to pen a memoir, titled The Truth, No Lies.
"I have about 500 songs at the moment," he said. "I feel that I'm making the best music I've ever made. The more I go through in life the better my music gets and it's been crazy the last three years. I keep my music heartfelt and stick to making real music. I wouldn't even say it's Hip Hop music. My music is 'reality rap.' Hip Hop music can make you dance and bob your head, but it can't make you cry or touch your heart like reality rap."
Of his memoir, he added, "I just felt the world needed to hear my life story so those who don't understand certain things that I rap about, like the struggle, will understand that it's the struggle that made me who I am today. I want people to know that it's bigger than rap with me. I have a good heart. I want people who never took the time out to listen to me, to give me a chance."
As previously mentioned, Boosie is currently serving an eight-year sentence for attempting to smuggle codeine, ecstasy and marijuana into jail. It is unknown when the Baton Rouge rapper will be let out of prison, although his attorneys estimate he could be released this summer.

Pyeloplasty is a surgery to repair the kidney. Specifically, it repairs a part of the kidney called the renal pelvis. The renal pelvis is a funnel-like structure. It connects the kidney to a tube called the ureter. This tube carries urine to the bladder.
Pyeloplasty is done if a blockage is found at the renal pelvis. This blockage prevents the urine from passing and makes the kidney swell.
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have a pyeloplasty, you or your child's
doctor will review a list of possible complications which may include:
A physical exam will be done before surgery. The doctor may also require blood and urine tests.
The bowels will also need to be cleaned. Your diet will be limited to clear liquids the night before. Do not eat or drink on the morning of the surgery.
Talk to the doctor about medications. You may be asked to stop taking some medications up to one week before the procedure, like:
General anesthesia will be given. You will be asleep.
Pyeloplasty may be done using open surgery or
laparoscopic surgery. A catheter will be placed to allow urine to drain.
During open surgery, an incision will be made in your side. The renal pelvis will be reconstructed. The blocked section
will also be removed. The remaining healthy sections of
will be re-attached. The incision in the skin will then be closed with stitches.
Laparoscopic surgery only requires a few small incisions. Special tools will be passed through these incisions to complete the surgery. The repair steps are the same as the open procedure above.
In some surgeries, a temporary tube may be placed in the ureter. This will allow urine to pass while the
About 2-3 hours
Anesthesia will block pain during the surgery. You may have some pain after the surgery. Your doctor will recommend medication to help you manage the pain.
The usual hospital stay is 2-3 days. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if complications arise. The stay may be shorter if you had a laparoscopic surgery.
You will receive medication to ease discomfort. You may have some discomfort the first few times you urinate after surgery. It is also common to feel a frequent need to urinate. It will pass.
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.
