Former Vice President Dick Cheney speaks in Oklahoma City about his heart failure
Political will kept him busy for four decades, but personal will and the best in medical technology keeps Dick Cheney alive beyond retirement.
The former vice president shared his successes and struggles in politics and heart disease Saturday with a ballroom full of Oklahoma health care professionals during the 2012 Integris Advanced Cardiac Care Heart Failure Symposium.
Five weeks to the day after getting a heart transplant, Cheney, 71, said prudence and good timing kept him ticking even when the odds were stacked against him.
"The first time I was aware I had a problem was in the middle of my first campaign for Congress," he said. "I got out of the car, walked into the emergency room, lay down on the table and passed out. That was my first heart
Heart disease, when fatty deposits block the flow of blood in the arteries, is the leading cause of death in the United States. Six million people currently suffer from it, with 580,000 new diagnoses each year at an estimated cost of $40 billion.
Heart procedures
Cheney was 37 when he had his first of five heart attacks. Since then, he's undergone just about every heart procedure there is — angioplasties and stents in his arteries, surgery to repair aneurysms behind his knees, a pacemaker to keep his ticker thumping.
After a heart attack in 2010, a battery-powered implant called a left ventricular assist device, or LVAD, was installed to keep blood flowing to his organs. About 20 months later, in March, Cheney's faulty heart was replaced with a new one.
Cheney attributed his success in fighting the disease to his decision to seek professional help after his first heart attack. When the doctor said conditions were ripe for continued heart problems, Cheney said he quit smoking cigarettes, changed his diet and began to exercise.
An internist convinced him to stay in the Congressional race, Cheney said — a fight not just for political power, but to stay vibrant and relevant.
"He said, 'You're going to be in a lot more danger having to spend your life doing something you don't want to do,'" Cheney said. "That advice stuck with me from the very early days, and I did the things a prudent man would do — I followed the advice of my doctor."
Most people, especially young people, hesitate before seeking help, he said. Those are the ones who don't make it.
Long-term treatment
But developing a long-term treatment plan is
"About the time a new technology came along was about the time I needed it," he told the audience.
Sitting in a plush red chair, Cheney described in detail the installation of the LVAD device in 2010.
When he showed up at the hospital, Cheney was suffering from pneumonia and his organs were nearing failure due to lack of blood flow, he said.
He spent two weeks "eating grapes in Italy" while unconscious in the intensive care unit following the surgery, and several months afterward undergoing intensive rehabilitation.
"It never really sank in what it meant to be disabled until I went through that process," he said. "You have to have gumption every day. It'd be relatively easy to get frustrated by it all and just lie there in bed — but that would be a big mistake."
The technology worked well enough to keep Cheney alive until he made it to the top of the transplant list. That surgery, he said, was much smoother. Cheney said he was awake and off his respirator in two days and home within nine.
"I never needed anything more than Tylenol 3," he said.
In the way
Cheney said twice his heart problems almost got in the way of his political career. The internist talked him out of quitting the Congressional race in Wyoming in 1978, and he went on to serve five terms.
After serving as Secretary of Defense under President George H.W. Bush, Cheney spent eight years in the private sector before he was asked to vet potential vice presidential candidates for George W. Bush.
He said his heart condition pushed him to decline initial offers to share the ticket with Bush, but in the end he recommended himself for the job.
"I told (Bush), if I'm in the middle of a debate with a vice presidential opponent and I feel a twinge, I'm going to blow out of there," he said. "But it turned out to be OK because I didn't have my next heart attack until two weeks after the election was over."
State ranks 48th
Dr. Douglas Horstmanshof, co-director of Integris Advanced Cardiac Care and program director of the Integris Heart Failure Institute, said Cheney personifies the marvels of modern health care.
The former vice president has suffered "the full spectrum of heart disease, yet with that continued to operate with the highest level of society," Horstmanshof said.
Oklahoma ranks 48th in the nation for heart disease, Horstmanshof said.
Cheney's appearance Saturday was an attempt to draw more public attention to the problem, but also enlighten the state's health care workers of the treatment options available at Integris Baptist Medical Center, he said.
Integris patients have received 400 heart transplants since the program was developed in 1985, Horstmanshof said, and the hospital has installed 150 artificial hearts in four years — including 50 in 2011.
"We are doing exactly what Mr. Cheney had right here at Integris Baptist Medical Center," he said. "We offer access for regular Oklahomans to exactly the same therapy Mr. Cheney has obtained."

Those pants look SO comfortable. Like a maxi skirt, but pants. And I love that bag. And TJM/Marshalls. I rarely walk out of those stores empty handed!ReplyDelete
That purse is so cute!ReplyDelete
After not getting it for so long, I finally came to realise WHY women need handbags. Men have trousers and coats and jackets and everything. We have pockets by the...well, by the pocketful. Dresses and skirts don't tend to have pockets. So that's what handbags are for. They're basically carryable pockets.ReplyDelete
No I'm not entirely sure what I'm talking about either.
You cannot go wrong with a black satchel, it goes with everything and is the perfect silhouette! Your palazzo pants are awesome too. Comfy and chic all at once, gotta love that. :) Hope your Friday was fun!ReplyDelete
Lmfao! I always do the Monica "I know" so I literally laughed out loud when I saw your reference.ReplyDelete
Hell yes to JustFab! I started JustFab earlier this year and I'm HOOKED. I'm like a JustFab junkie. I always just let them charge me for the month and then hold out for the BOGO sales or really good discounts so I can get the most out of it. I also have FabKids and Fabletics. Yeah, I'm a Fabaddict. Lol.
And I am so glad that palazzo pants are back in style! They're so comfy and I used to wear them all the time when I was younger.
Pants. Purse. Dress. Love all of it!ReplyDelete
i know we've touched on this before but I LOVE CR stuff. omggg.ReplyDelete
i have that dress in an aqua green color. and the palazzo pants are SO cute on you.. i was so anti them at first but now they are growing on me, i'm too late in the game!

A Dose of Passion: Jarvis Cocker Is on Hand to Expand Radio 4's Sometimes Limited Horizons
Hanley, Lynsey, New Statesman (1996)
Zine Scene
Radio 4
It took a good, long break from Radio 4 for me to feel the spontaneous urge to switch it back on. The house had become flooded with verbiage, with "issues", with declamatory announcements, as though it had been towed under cover of darkness to Speakers' Corner. Radio 4, for all its apparent variety and world-curiosity, has a limited lexicon, tending to overuse the phrases "Gloucester Old Spot", "clematis" and "light-hearted", this last implying, not inaccurately, that the rest of the station's output is as heavy as a wet coat.
But switch on I did, and there was the voice of Jarvis Cocker, sounding to me like home. Not that I've ever lived in Sheffield, where he's from; it was more in the sense that he has a regional accent at all. You hear half-gulped generic "northern" voices all the time on Radio 4 trailers and (alleged) comedies, but few as unaffected and specific as Cocker's.
He's been an invaluable source of entertainment and enlightenment since my mid-teens, when I wrote to the fan-club address of his band, Pulp, and was rewarded with a handwritten message from its organiser, Mark Webber, and a limited-edition swatch of tweed from a discarded pair of Cocker's trousers. Webber, once a teenage fanzine writer, went on to become a Pulp guitarist, as did Russell Senior, whom Cocker credited at the start of his two-part documentary Zine Scene (15 and 22 January, 11.30am) as having helped Pulp's cause with a laudatory gig review in the Bath Banker, Senior's own 'zine.
"He sold it to me at the fish market where I was working," Cocker noted, neglecting to mention that he once wrote a song called "I Scrubbed the Crabs That Killed Sheffield".
Self-produced fan magazines began in the 1940s, written by science-fiction obsessives, but much later became an established part of Britain's underground music culture due to two things: punk rock and the photocopier. The first espoused doing it yourself; the second facilitated it. Cocker interviewed two senior academics whose research has brought them into contact with hen's-teeth artefacts such as Kitten Carousel, a feminist punk fanzine whose cover was lettered in pink nail varnish.
For the cultural historian Roger Sabin, fanzine creators are motivated by "avoiding censorship--they enjoy the total control they have over the content". …

by Leslie Morgan Steiner
Not sure about you, but one phrase I'd like to mothball for 2011 is "glass ceiling," that invisible barrier preventing women from achieving the pinnacle of career success. Many women have shattered the glass ceiling, making the metaphor moot even for those determined to break through to the echelons of their profession. Millions more don't care to, finding greater value instead in a pragmatic balance of economic security, job satisfaction, and time with family.
This is not to say gender bias and barriers do not exist. They do. These stubborn, pernicious obstacles have derailed many smart, ambitious, well-educated women. However, the more apt term heading into 2011 is "glass labyrinth" – the confusing maze of bias and solutions confounding women at all career levels, ethnicities and ages.
Fortunately, in a recent issue of Forbes, Joan Williams, the founder of the UC Hastings Center for WorkLife Law [1], and author of Reshaping the Work-Family Debate [2] supplied a few powerful torches [3] to lead us out of the darkness.
Here are Joan's three formidable resolutions for 2011 – backed by 35 years of gender research.
Get serious. Don't accept any assignment on top of your existing workload – particularly a feel-good assignment targeted towards diversity -- unless your organization values the contribution enough to devote a budget and administrative resources needed to implement it.
At my most recent job, I was asked to pinch hit for a woman who'd recently been fired for ethics violations. No increase in salary. I remember feeling immensely flattered that my bosses believed I could do two jobs at once (while I was pregnant with baby number three). I was sure they'd reward me come bonus time. Looking back, part of why I was asked was because I was a new employee, and thus too naïve in corporate practices to ask for a salary or bonus bump. Other employees wouldn't have been so trusting.
Sure enough, I never got financial compensation for working two fulltime jobs at once. Two years later I had to force my way off the ridiculous double job burden. The moral of the story? If your organization values the increased responsibility, they'll pay for it. Additional responsibilities may well hurt your career if they require you to spend time, with administrative support, on activities that distract you from activities the organization truly values and rewards.
Challenge work devotion. Most traditional organizations reward historically male models of talent and workplace dedication. Large numbers of women cannot succeed at work without new paths to success that include flexible work schedules and more creative definitions of workplace contributions.
Look around work: Are most of your bosses men married to stay-at-home wives, or men or women without children? If so, an unstated requirement for leadership is breadwinners without family responsibilities, the implication being that success is built upon ability to work demanding, unpredictable schedules, rather than on raw talent. This narrow definition of "work devotion" requires women--but not men--to give up conventional family life. Find a company with a more open culture and leaders with a range of lifestyles.
Avoid, confront and eliminate the four most common forms of gender bias:
* Prove it again. Caucasian men get an automatic vote of confidence from day one at work, while women and minorities have to prove themselves again and again. Women's mistakes are black marks, remembered forever; men's are usually forgotten or explained away. Women's successes are chalked up to luck, while men's are attributed to skill. (How often have you heard successful women say, "I'm just so fortunate to have this opportunity." How often do you hear successful men attribute their prowess to luck?) Objective rules are applied rigorously to women, but far more leniently to men. The results are a baffling, demoralizing mix of frustration, anger and dejection that comes from playing a rigged game.
* Maternal Wall. Motherhood triggers powerful conscious and unconscious negative competence and commitment assumptions. Think about colleagues who question whether an expectant mother (but not father) will return to work, or that boss who decided to decrease your colleague's direct reports while she was on maternity leave as "a favor" to her. This maternal "wall" is the strongest form of workplace gender bias and is a glass labyrinth in itself. Studies have shown that mothers are dramatically less likely to be hired and promoted, and held to higher performance and punctuality standards, than women with identical resumes but no children.
* Double Bind. To succeed in most corporate cultures, women have to display a canny, disarming mix of masculine and feminine qualities. If a woman is "too" hard-driving, blunt and confident, she's seen as lacking the social skills for promotion. A woman who is "too" nice, deferential, soft, cheerful, and feminine, is seen as lacking the objective qualifications and drive for leadership. My motto? Wear some article of pink clothing every day…and apply for plum assignments and negotiate for more money at every annual review.
* Women vs. women competition. If your organization has historically had only a few female or minority leaders at the top, you may understandably get the impression that to get there yourself, first you need to eliminate all female contenders. Don't let gender bias cloud your competitive spirit. Focus instead on changing the culture by supporting talent over gender, by supporting and promoting other talented women and diverse leadership skills…including your own.
Charting your own path through the glass labyrinth of gender bias is not easy for anyone. Remember: you're in good company, with more and more women increasing their education levels and flooding the working world. With increasing diversity of our population and economy, come increasing diversity in terms of success. You get select your own personal definition of "success" when it comes to work and family.

Luguy in Pursuit of Art: French Artist Makes News in U.S
Szadkowski, Joseph, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
This is the 18th in an infinite series that profiles the elite of the comic book industry. This month we flake away the fastigial nucleus of Phillippe Luguy and ask him to:
Phillippe Luguy is a self-taught artist/illustrator long admired in Europe. He is now creating a stir in the American comic book market with his book "Percevan," distributed by Fantasy Flight Publishing. Born in 1948, Mr. Luguy began his artistic career at 18 after he returned from the armed services. His first strip, "Sylvio the Cricket," ran from 1974 until 1982 in Pif magazine. His first comic book (album), "Cyril and the Castle of One Thousand Diamonds," was released in 1977. Mr. Luguy has been a strip cartoonist, comic artist and does posters for shows and festivals and postcards.
Now available in the U.S. comic market, "Percevan" is available at better comic book stores or by calling Fantasy Flight at 800/773-8529.
Official title: Passionate artist. I think that no matter which artistic means one uses to express one's ideas, passion is the principle motive. It isn't, of course, constant from day to day - and inspiration isn't always present nor is the desire to put one's expressions down on paper.
Amount of time creating sequential art: My first publication was at the age of 18, upon my return from the navy that I began to live by this profession. When I count back, it's been 25 years since I started.
How I got into the business: At about 14 or 15 years old, I dreamed of becoming the "European Walt Disney" (youth knows no modesty!). At this period in my life, I met Paul Grimaud, a real French creator, producer of cartoons: "The King and the Bird," from the text of Jacques Prevert. He kindly received me, advised me and even proposed to let me perfect my work in his studios. Cartoons need an enormous amount of work and I wanted so much to see my characters live.
Current project: At the moment, I'm finishing a new adventure of Percevan, "The Black Arcantane." The album will be out in April 1996. I also draw many humorous postcards on various subjects: winter sports, the seaside, series of postcards for children or again, more romantic ones. I also create posters for book shows or cartoon festivals.
Sequential art project most glad to have been associated with: Generally, it's the next project that gives me the most pleasure. It's a moment of dreams, of hope once finished. I'm always disappointed with myself and can only find faults in the Percevan series, I have what you could call a preference for the album The Hour Glass of El Jerada. Probably because of the subject of the story (death) and also because the environment of the Arabian countries was very agreeable to draw.
Major differences between the European and American sequential art/comic books: The American market has an audience which largely crosses its frontiers, it's worldwide. Europe isn't ready yet. Its market still stays most of the time separated by the frontiers of the country of origin. …

All CCT community partners and clients are organized into fellowship groups that meet on a weekly basis. A fellowship group is composed of fifteen to thirty community partners.

We stayed 2 weeks in the apartment of Yossi & Ana.

Beautifully decorated and spacious for 2 people.
Yossi and Ana are very nice hosts.
I would definitely recommend this apartment!
Elvira and Rutger
endroit très pratique pour sillonner la ville et le pays. bien desservi par les transports calme frais!!! hôtes souriant aidant et discret qui parle français. merci
A perfect vacation apartment. Great location, quite, and has everything you would need. We stayed there for 3 weeks, and would come back. Yossi and Ana are the nicest people, and perfect hosts. 5 Stars!
Yossi and Ana's apartment is absolutely marvelous. We felt immediately home upon arriving at this beautiful place, which is such a cozy and quiet hideout in the buzzling city of Tel Aviv. From fresh fruits on the table to soap and clean towels in the bathroom and milk in the fridge: everything is thought of by the lovely hosts. And if you need anything, you just have to give Yossi a shout and he will help you out :). The only disadvantage was having to leave. We will definitely recommend staying here!
Das Apartment erfüllt all das, was in der Beschreibung versprochen worden war: es ist sehr liebevol und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man für einen Urlaubsaufenthalt braucht. Die Lage ist optimal, um die Stadt zu erkunden, einzukaufen und um zum Strand zu gelangen - und trotzdem ruhig. Gekrönt wird es allerdings dadurch, dass wir uns durch den herzlichen Empfang und die angenehme, hilfsbereite Gastfreundschaft von Ana und Yossi von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute rundum wohlgefühlt haben.
We had a great stay in the apartment of Yossi & Ana. The apartment is very luxury, spacious, with great design, comfortable bed, clean sheets and towels. Yossi & Ana are very kind and if you have any questions they are there to help you. The apartment is situated on a great, central (but also very quiet) location in Tel Aviv, in the cozy Yemenite Quarter. The Carmel Market is around the corner, you'll reach the beach within 2 minutes (walking), and the Neve Tzedek Quarter (with nice bars and restaurants) is nearby. Jaffa and the Port of Tel Aviv are easily accessible by bike. Our advice: upgrade your visit to Tel Aviv and stay with Yossi & Ana!

Local businesses that depend on driving for their job say it's tough to have the price of gas continue to rise.
The state average for regular unleaded is at $3.58.
Locksmith Ralph Fuller, owner of Coastal Locks, Cann's Locksmith, says he already had to raise his rates at the beginning of the year and may have to do it again if the price of gas keeps rising.
Fuller says, "But it's hard to raise the prices especially when you're a small business and you want to continue to do business. But I mean if you don't raise the prices then you're going to suffer on the bottom line."
The national average for regular unleaded is $3.60, up from $2.79 at this time last year.

I'm thinking about trying to install a 130mm rear road hub laced to a 26" rim to convert it to modern 9 speed equipment. Any ideas. The frame seems really nice, similar to my 2002 Jamis Eurika.

Perlis skipper Wan Zulhilmi Wan Mustafa (right) celebrates after scoring a goal against Sabah in their Sukma opening match on May 24, 2014.
KANGAR: Perlis skipper Wan Zulhilmi Wan Mustafa admits that nerves got the better of him as he came close to completing a hat-trick in the Malaysia Games (Sukma) football competition.
Zulhilmi failed to convert his third free-kick as the hosts thumped 10-man Sabah 3-0 in the Group A opener at the UiTM Stadium on Saturday.
Mohd Shukor Azmi had earlier converted a spotkick in the 23rd minute to give the hosts the lead before Zulhilmi hit a brace in the 53rd and 80th minutes from free-kicks to seal the full points over the defending champions.
The 20-year-old striker rifled his first free-kick to the top corner before drilling a low shot for his second goal but his third free-kick proved to be a disappointment after his attempt flew over the crossbar.
The fiery clash also saw referee Kamal Ahmad flashing the yellow card eight times, which also resulted in the sending off of Sabah's skipper Rawilson Batuil in the 69th minute. In total, Sabah picked up five bookings and Perlis got three.
Zulhilmi, who has set a personal target of scoring more than five goals in the tournament, said that he was too nervous at the thought of scoring a hat-trick when he took his third free-kick.
"I scored from the last two free-kicks and I wanted to score the third badly but my mind was not focused and my kick ended up being a big disappointment," said Zulhilmi after the match.
"It was great that we managed to get off to a bright start in the competition. Sabah were very physical and it was a hard match ... I'm glad we managed to get the full points.
"I always practise my free-kicks after training and this time my hard work paid off. I hope I can continue scoring to help the team reach the final."
Perlis take on Pahang in their next Group A match at the UiTM Stadium on Monday.

Good for buttering corn

Used these for many years...Do a good job of buttering corn...

It's a great no-mess item.
By Little Bean
from St. Louis, MO
It is an inexpensive item that will last for years and is so useful. It's great for corn on the cob because it spreads butter evenly without making a mess. It can be used to spread butter on toast,too. If you need a pat of butter, you can push out the amount you want, then cut it off with a knife. I love it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I would buy this product again and again

About Me Avid Cook
Nothing better for corn on the cob. Only works if the butter is at room temperature. Doesn't work right out of the frig.
(2 of 2 customers found this review helpful)
By Sofia
from San Francisco, CA
The tub is too short leaving 1 inch of butter uncovered. I have to cut the extra butter to close it. I have to take the butter out before using it because it gets very hard and it's difficult to push it out.
Handy Item
By Mr. T
from C. B., IA
Works well when the butter is soft. If refrigerated, hard to push thru.
Butter the Corn not the plate
By Grandpa Fran

.- Bishop Bejoy Nicephorus D'Cruze of Khulna, South West Bangladesh, has told Catholic charity, Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) that the faithful in his diocese continue to seek protection from Islamic fundamentalists.
"Christians in Bangladesh are a tiny minority," Bishop D'Cruze said on his March 7th visit to ACN headquarters, "but the Church has its role, especially where we have churches and institutions."
"We are afraid of fundamentalism. We still need protection, which the state is ready to give us," he added.
According to the Bishop, in Bangladesh there are only about 300,000 Catholics and some 200,000 Protestants, among 147 million people.
The bishop said that Christianity's recognition of the inherent dignity of all human beings also stands in stark contrast to Hindu's caste system. "Some 35 percent in my diocese come from a low Hindu Background, Christianity can give them human dignity," the bishop said.
"We have the best schools and colleges and good hospitals too. In Khulna diocese, there are 61 Catholic schools and 4 Catholic hospitals. Education is a priority for me. I have 53 well-trained catechists."
Khulna diocese has about 29,000 Catholics out of a population of 15 million, and 21 priests, according to the bishop.

Additional Information
About Asociación ASDIRASDIR (Asociación de Desarrollo Integral Rural - Association for the Development of Rural Communities) is a community-based organization that works to promote development in the villages and communities where it serves. It was founded in 1999 in the village of Nimasac, Totonicapán Department, by a handful of local men and women to support community projects and group loans. Today ASDIR has 5 offices across 3 departments (Totonicapán, Sololá and Suchitepéquez) serving more than 6,000 clients, most of them in rural communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

New Survey Shows Youth Becoming More Pro-Life
Catholic News Agency reports on a new Knights of Columbus survey showing youth becoming more pro-life.
From the CNA report: Just one day before the March for Life in Washington D.C. and the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, a new survey shows that the number of Americans who say they are pro-life is continuing to grow. Members of the Millennial generation say abortion is "morally wrong" at a rate of 58 percent.
The survey, which was conducted between December 2009 and January 2010, was co-sponsored by the Knights of Columbus and the Marists. It asked, among other things, if abortion was "morally wrong." Fifty-six percent of Americans said they thought that abortion was indeed "morally wrong."
The survey shows that Americans are becoming more pro-life, but more importantly, it showed that the upcoming generations are more pro-life than those nearing retirement. The "Millennials," as the generation of 18-29 year-olds is called, responded that abortion is morally wrong at a rate of 58 percent. Sixty percent of those belonging to "Generation X," or people between 30 and 44, also fell in the pro-life camp.
"Baby Boomers," or people between the ages of 45 and 64, are less likely to call abortion morally reprehensible, with 51% saying abortion is wrong. Those over age 65 said abortion is immoral at a rate of 60 percent.
