60 Day Challenge Week 2 Update
Tuesday, April 17, 2012
Ahh the Dandayamana-Janushirasana Head to Knee pose, bet you think I've been able to do this now that I've been doing Bikram for almost 2 months now...huh? Nope, still haven't been able to perfect this one. I've been told that this posture can take months upon months to accomplish perfectly. So I guess I have awhile to get this one and all the rest. I can balance on the standing leg with my knee locked out and one leg up with my quadricep parallel to the floor and knee bent at a 90 degree angle and sometimes I'm even able to straighten that leg out but at the moment completing that entire posture, I'm just not there yet. It'll come, I know it will. These are challenges for me and will continue to be even after this 60 day challenge. This challenge is nothing more than, "can I do this for 60 days straight".
Onto the update for week 2. I had a lot of issues this past week and I'm not really sure why. I was told that it's just like anything else, that I would have good practices and I would have some not so good practices. The main issue I'm having is that my sciatica is starting to flare up again and with that comes pain in the piriformis muscle. In other words, I literally am having a pain in the butt. Ouch! Some of the postures are affecting it a bit more and causing some intense pain but I just treat it very gingerly and move on. I was told to take epsom salts baths after my practices, so I'll be trying that this week. A couple of the days of the week were better than others. I was able to balance in Standing Bow Pose (Dandayamana-Dhanurasana) on the left side for a lot longer, not a perfect balance but a balance nonetheless. I also did pretty good with one side of the Head to Knee pose and mostly the side where I'm not having the glute muscle issues. I did another double on Saturday so that I could take Sunday off and rest. I have to admit it was kind of nice to just chill on Sunday. Well, not necessarily chill because I did a lot of house work but no workouts were done. I love a good challenge and this is definitely a good one in my book. I have to be honest that when I've completed this, it'll be nice to practice 4 days a week and sometimes 5 if I want.
All in all, I score this Bikram 60 Day Challenge Week 2 on a scale of 1-10, a 5.
Have a super week and Namaste!

A classical poetry anthology, Emotions celebrates the depths of the human experience. Born of the author's deep love for her native culture and its natural treasures, this beautiful coffee-table book features breathtaking images from European ocean photographers Bob Martin, Pascal Parry, Genviev Martin-Bernard and Gregory Martin.
Excerpt from the foreword:
"Emotions are to the heart what tears are to the eye, a window to the essence of our soul, the fabric of our consciousness. Tears of joy, tears of pain, tears of frustration and despair, tears of love and exaltation, one by one, they weave the mosaic of our life. When we learn to cherish each and every one of them, honor their truth and hold them in the center of our heart with undivided attention, we allow them to unfold and deliver the quiet magic of the insights they carry. Only when we surrender and accept them unconditionally for being the essence of our existence, can we progress on the sacred journey to our oneness with all of Creation and, ultimately, to ourselves."
© 2009 Genviev Martin-Bernard
Genviev Martin-Bernard is an internationally published author and photographer whose work has been featured in award-winning literary collections, leading international magazines and numerous publications and newspapers. "Emotions" celebrates the author's native culture and the beauty of its natural treasures. More about the author at www.GenvievMartin.com.

Fans of the E. L. James series will be glad to know the actors are hard at work on the set of "Fifty Shades of Grey." The movie is filming in Vancouver, according to a Jan. 17 post on Wetpaint and these photos come hot off the presses from the set.
In the book, Christian gives Anastasia a red Audi as a gift. He doesn't think her VW bug, "Wanda," is safe for her to drive. She accepts the generous gift - and who wouldn't – and names the new car "The Submissive Special." A little foreshadowing there maybe?
The photos are from that scene. Jamie Dornan, who is playing Christian Grey, is seen standing behind Dakota Johnson, the actress playing Anastasia, with his hand over his eyes. Another shot shows him handing her the keys and another is of the two of them looking delighted over the exchange. Take a peek.
The movie won't be out until next year but we're excited already. Are you? Check back as we plan to have more photos and scoops on "Fifty Shades of Grey" as soon as we can get our hands on them.

Lagoon Update
Posted by: Steph on April 30th, 2010
Tyge, Echo, and I just returned from a late evening stroll along the Lagoon. Sad to say for David and Gordon, the ice is still resoundingly in. I think it's safe to say that it's going to be around for at least 3-4 more days.

LONG BEACH — Razor clam digging will be open Friday through Sunday on the Long Beach Peninsula.
Low tide will be -0.9 feet at 5:11 p.m. on Friday, -1.0 feet at 5:56 p.m. on Saturday and -0.9 feet at 6:37 p.m. on Sunday.
With the best digging one to two hours prior to low tide, at least a portion of these digs will be during daylight hours.
Dan Ayres, coastal shellfish manager for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, said both the clams and diggers made a strong showing during the last weekend in January.
"I don't know whether people are shaking off cabin fever or what, but thousands of diggers turned out for the last opening," Ayres said. "Most of them went home with their 15-clam limit."
Twin Harbors beach will be open Feb. 7-12. Copalis and Mocrocks will be open Friday and Saturday.

Date: November 15 2012
LONDON: Veteran Australian halfback Craig Gower has agreed a new contract that will keep him with the London Broncos until the end of 2014.
The well-travelled 34-year-old arrived in the capital at the start of the 2012 season after a four-year spell in rugby union.
Prior to that he had made his name as an Kangaroos international in the 13-man code.
He made 28 appearances for the Broncos last season, excelling after the club changed coach when Tony Rea replaced Rob Powell midway through the season.
"We're settled here, I spoke to the club and they were willing to give me another year, which was great," Gower said of his new deal.
"Obviously last season was a tough season but we love being here and we've enjoyed it, even though it was a tough grind, it's just part of footy. I'm just looking forward to this year."
During his time in rugby union, Gower won 13 caps for Italy who he qualified to play for through family heritage. He is hopeful of playing for Italy in next year's rugby league world cup.
"Craig displays terrific appetite for the game and towards training and preparation," Rea said of his dual-code international.

Not quite a decade ago, Maria Klawe, then the highly regarded dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science at Princeton University, was recruited to become the fifth president of Harvey Mudd College, an elite Southern California school specializing in science, engineering and math. Klawe's recruiters at the college told her they wanted a bold and visionary leader—a change agent who would bring new thinking to the school and how it was run.
Klawe (pronounced KLAH-vay) took them at their word. She charged in and proposed new majors, such as science journalism, that faculty complained were nontraditional; created a senior leadership team that unnerved staffers who were not accustomed to working collaboratively; and generally underestimated the extent to which the academic community would resist her zealous efforts to execute her mission. She also answered questions in meetings so quickly that listeners felt she wasn't being deliberative or thoughtful.
Now, when she gives speeches, "I often talk about what went wrong in my first year," says Klawe, a frank, good-humored computer scientist who can hardly name all the innovations she proposed that freaked people out. Not that the outcry was unexpected: "There have been many times in my career when I pushed harder for change than most people were ready for." At the University of British Columbia, for example, she felt that the department she headed, computer science, was drastically underfunded compared with the older, more established physical science departments. "I fought for this, and over time the budgets became more equitable—which those other departments resented enormously," she says. By the time she landed at Harvey Mudd, she knew that when people object to your leadership, there's no point in protesting. You need to try to recover, then find an effective path forward.
For Klawe, this meant working with an executive coach to develop a leadership style that was slower paced as well as more strategic and reflective. She learned to "seed" certain ideas by asking a like-minded colleague to propose the change rather than having it come from her. She trained herself to listen actively and avoid interrupting. "I learned how to be much less energetic and dynamic, a lot quieter," says Klawe, who has been known to paint with watercolors in meetings to slow herself down. "It really took a huge change." And her new approach was noticed: She says any number of faculty and board members have told her that because she accepted criticism on her first-year performance and set about transforming herself as a leader, they came to trust her immensely. Once she had their support, she began the process of taking a really good school and making it great. "I'm a big believer in failure," Klawe says. "I don't know of any successful person who hasn't failed lots of times."
[How to Fail Successfully: Picture Yourself Winning]
Could You Weather the Storm?
Klawe's view of failure is symbolic of a broader trend in our culture. Far from being something shameful or harmful, failure is now understood as an experience to be valued and even sought, according to a chorus of academics and thought leaders. To attempt something difficult and fail at it shows that you are pushing past your existing skill set. Framed this way, failure is not a scarlet letter; it's a sign that you're on track to reach a new level of achievement. This notion is also gaining traction in the corporate world. The Harvard Business Review not too long ago devoted an entire issue to failure as a driver of creativity, urging managers to create cultures in which failure is seen as inevitable—even desirable—rather than undiscussable. In October, Dilbert creator Scott Adams came out with the book How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big, chronicling the string of failures he experienced before hitting a sweet spot with his comic strip.

Senate rejects Navajo gambling compact

The state Senate rejected a proposed gambling compact that would have allowed the Navajos to open three additional casinos over 15 years. The compact needed approval of the Legislature and the U.S. Interior Department to take effect.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico lawmakers have dealt a setback to the Navajo Nation by rejecting a gambling compact that would have allowed the state's largest American Indian tribe to open three additional casinos.
The Senate voted 31-10 against the agreement Wednesday, which the House had approved the day before.
The compact required approval of the Legislature and the U.S. Interior Department to take effect.
Navajo President Ben Shelly expressed bitter disappointment and said the Navajos would consider their options, including possible legal action against the state.
"I always thought that the state of New Mexico has always been friendly to Native Americans," Shelly said after the vote. "I can't believe that they have only been friendly to a few — the pueblos — and not to the Navajo Nation."
Shelly said he was unhappy with pueblos that objected to the proposed compact because they worried their casinos might suffer if there were more places to gamble in New Mexico.
"I thought we were unified in everything we do," he said of other tribes. "I don't know what happened to them. I guess greed and business is what happened."
He said, "I think this is going to be a big thing. They made a big mistake, the pueblos, by what they did."
Compact opponents objected that the deal would have allowed the Navajos to open three more casinos over 15 years.
There are more than 20 casinos operated by 14 tribes and pueblos in New Mexico, and five horse-racing tracks have casinos with slot machines.
Acoma and Laguna pueblos had testified before lawmakers that the gambling market was saturated in New Mexico and their casinos would suffer if the Navajos were allowed to expand. Of particular concern was the possibility that the Navajos might build a casino on their land near Albuquerque.
Democratic Sen. Clemente Sanchez of Grants, whose district includes Acoma and Laguna pueblos, said the Navajos should be limited to their existing casinos. He said there was ample time for the state to negotiate another compact with the Navajos because the tribe's existing agreements run through June 2015.
He also complained that the Navajos had quickly turned down a request by a legislative committee to revise the compact to deal with concerns about the number of new casinos.
"I think the Nation was disrespecting our process up here," he said.
The Navajos operate two Las Vegas-style casinos in New Mexico — near Gallup and Farmington — under a compact expiring in mid-2015, and a third casino near Shiprock offers low-stakes gambling not subject to state regulation.
The tribe is seeking a new compact to provide the option for economic development in the future. Tribal officials have said they likely will upgrade existing casinos before building any new ones.
Sen. George Munoz, a Gallup Democrat, said the proposed compact would provide stability for the tribe and its contracts with casino vendors. Waiting until next year to deal with a new compact increases the risk that the current tribal-state gambling agreement will expire before it can be replaced. Without any compact, he said, the Navajos might have to close their existing casinos.
Democratic Sen. John Pinto of Gallup, a Navajo who has the most seniority in the Senate, said the proposed compact was vital for tribal economic development.
"The Navajo Nation gambling enterprise has created over 950 jobs, of which 90 percent of those jobs are held by Navajo people," Pinto said. "I see my people able to provide for themselves and their families."
The proposed compact would have extended to 2037.
There is no limit on casinos under the current compact with the Navajos and four other tribes — the Mescalero and Jicarilla Apaches as well as Acoma and Pojoaque pueblos.
Nine other New Mexico tribes have different compacts with the state, approved in 2007, and they can only operate two casinos.

🌻 Thank You for continuing to keep my special angels in your hearts. Your visits are always cherished! 🎀
MY MISSION HERE WAS TO INTRODUCE THE FIND A GRAVE COMMUNITY TO SPECIAL PEOPLE WHOM HAVE TOUCHED MY LIFE PROFOUNDLY. ANOTHER GOAL WAS TO LET MEMBERS KNOW, SOMEWHERE... SOMEONE ELSE IS/WAS THINKING OF THEIR LOVED ONES. I AM LUCKY TO MET SO MANY GREAT FRIENDS HERE! XO God Bless ✞ 💗
8/4/2014- Thursday, August 8th, unfortunately will be my last time here as a frequent (downgraded to occasional) member of the Find A Grave community. It breaks my 💔 to say this, but if you've seen I've visited one of my special angels' memorials and not your loved ones, it's definitely NOT personal, I just don't have it in me to my current health condition. Also, I feel it's unfair to visit just a few other Find A Grave members memorials and not be able to visit everyone. Please know, even though I'm not visiting them, I am thinking of your loved ones and you. Thank you all so much for the well wishes!
💖 (**Rachel Newhouse is pictured in my avatar/bio pic area, it is NOT a pic of me**)
The inspirational lives of
Kristen D. French
Rachel L. Newhouse
Ashley M. Easterbrook
and especially my
Special Angels
will forever live on in spirit through the hearts and souls of those they have touched.
It's been three years since the passing of
Julia C. Niswender
and the police have no new leads. I vow to keep a link of Julia's memorial on my bio page, until info emerges and her family can get closure. Please keep her family in your thoughts & prayers. Justice For Julia!
It is NOT my intention to miss fellow Find A Gravers' loved ones Birthdays and Angel Days, but it happens, please do not take it personal. I'll do my best to visit memorials as time permits. Thanks.
***Nothing personal, but I choose to remain "anonymous", because I've been harrassed by a murderer's family in the past. Thank you for respecting my privacy. Due to my e-mail address being hacked in the past, I only interact with Find A Gravers through public messages. If you get a private e-mail claiming to be me. There is a 99% chance it's probably NOT me.
I very rarely make personalized virtual flowers anymore, but when making them for loved ones here, I've found out they display differently (unintentionally flashing or perform malfunctioning animations) on some of my virtual flowers. You'll find different results depending what operating system (Windows, UNIX, OS X, IOS) or web browser you use (Safari, Opera, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). My sincere apologies.
If you want to add me to your "Find A Grave Friends", please do. I don't update my list too often, but I consider almost everyone here a friend. I'm not good at returning messages. Sorry in advance.
To all whom have left beautifully written tokens/flowers for my memorials, THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your generosity is overwhelming! :)

Thank you ♥
Hi there,
Thank you so much for visiting my featured memorial for June 2016, Zach Killinger. He was such a brave young man, fighting a terrible and incurable disease (Batten Disease). It means a lot to me to see him being remembered and honored here on FG.
Hope you have a good week,

He was/is really terrific, one of the genuine finds of the American porn hydra. We've admired this set of photographs for years, but I - for one - haven't seen him anywhere, afterwards.

Chevrolet has released a new official video teaser featuring the 2014 Corvette C7, which will be unveiled on the 13th January 2013. However, the short clip shows very few details of the car, being more focused on the design language and technologies that have influenced the production version of the American supercar, some of which are quite futuristic and innovative.
Under the hood of the car lies the new 6.2-litre V8 engine, the LT1, which is the fifth generation of the Small Block line-up and is credited with output of 455 hp and 610 Nm (19 hp and 35 Nm more than those offered on the current 6.2-litre LS3). The LT1 has active fuel management system, which shuts down four cylinders when the engine is idling. The Corvette C7 is expected to cover the 0-96 km / h in less than 4 seconds and to consume 9 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres, reducing pollutant emissions.

One day after his opponent passed away unexpectedly, former "American Idol" contestant and congressional hopeful Clay Aiken moved one step closer to representing North Carolina's second district after being declared the winner of a close Democratic primary.
Aiken's opponent, 71-year-old Keith Crisco, passed away Monday afternoon after a fall at his home in Asheboro and was declared dead when emergency responders arrived at the scene. In response to the news, Aiken offered his condolences and announced he would be suspending all campaign activities temporarily.
When news of Crisco's death broke, Aiken had been been holding on to a slim lead of fewer than 400 votes after last week's primary. On Tuesday, officials conducted the vote certification process that had previously been scheduled. It was determined that although both candidates picked up some more votes through absentee ballots that had to be turned in by yesterday, Aiken still had 40 percent of the vote, which was required to avoid a runoff election.
The final margin of difference between the vote totals clocked in at 1.37 percent, eliminating the possibility of a recount, which could have been requested if the final vote spread was lower than one percentage point. Campaign manager Christine Botta said, however, that Crisco had decided to concede today after looking at absentee numbers from two counties.
There is one more step left in the primary stage, as the results will still need to be reviewed and achieve final certification by the state elections board next week.
Aiken, 35, now faces a tough opponent in incumbent nominee Rep. Renee Ellmers, a Republican who has held the congressional seat for two terms and won her first when the Tea Party came into the fold in 2010. In the 2012 election, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney won the conservative-leaning district with 58 percent of the vote to President Obama's 41 percent. ABC notes that the figure is wider margin than Romney picked up in North Carolina overall, which was 50 percent to 48 percent.

COPA Surveys - COPA is looking for your opinion about the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM)
Take the Survey
On behalf of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society (CAHS) National executive I want to say how pleased we are at our increased links with an important Canadian organization like COPA. As you might know, I worked with Kevin Psutka last year to nominate COPA co-founder John Bogie for induction into Canada's Aviation Hall of Fame. Unfortunately he is not to be inducted this year, but with COPA's 60th anniversary next year, perhaps we'll have better luck — especially if COPA members came out in support beforehand.

THE ORDINARY of NEWGATE his ACCOUNT, Of the Behaviour, Confession, and dying Words of the Malefactors who were Executed on Friday the 11th of August, 1727, at Tyburn.
AT the King's Commission of Oyer and Terminer, and Jail Delivery of Newgate, held (before the Right Honourable Sir JOHN EYLES, Bart . Lord Mayor of the City of London. The Rt. Honourable Sir Thomas Pengelly, Knt . Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer , the Honourable Mr. Justice Denton, the Honourable Mr. Justice Reynolds, the Honourable Mr. Baron Thompson, Recorder of the City of London, and John Raby, Esq ; Serjeant at Law ; and others his Majesty's Justices of Jail Delivery, and Oyer and Terminer aforesaid: Together with several of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace for the City of London, and County of Middlesex, at Justice-Hall, in the Old-Baily, on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, being the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th of July, 1727, in the first Year of his Majesty's Reign.
Five Men, viz. Alex. Jones, J. Prat, Tho. Timms, Thomas Perry, and Edward Brown; and three Women, viz. Mary Reynolds, Sylvia Sherlock, and Anne Senior were by the Jury found guilty of Capital Offences, and receiv'd Sentence of Death. Richard Herbert, and Eliza. Wade, alias Boucher, having been found guilty and Sentenc'd to die, at the preceeding Sessions holden on the 17th, and 18th of May last, and kept from that Time to the last Sessions, on the 5th of July, &c. were in Company with them, while they were under Sentence.
They were Instructed in the Principles of Christianity, how that without Faith it is impossible to please God: For he that cometh to God, must believe that he is; and that he is a Rewarder of them who diligently seek him. Heb, xi. 6. From which and other Points of Scripture I shew'd them, that by the Laws and Dictates of Nature it was ingrafted in the Minds of all Men, that there is a God, or supream Being, who created and governs all Things; yet considering the laps'd State we are now plung'd into, in order to the perfecting our corrupt Nature, and preparing us for the enjoyment of God; it was necessary, that Revelation of the Divine Will should be added to the Light of Nature, which is now in a great Measure, if not totally, obscur'd by our Apostacy and Disobedience: This Defect is now made up to us sufficiently by the Gospel, wherein we are assur'd, that God so lov'd the World, that he gave his only beloved Son for us, that whosoever believth in him might not perish, but have everlasting Life; who hath brought Life and Immortality to Light thro' the Gospel. God having thus purchas'd for us a Right to eternal Life by the Death of his Son. I show'd 'em, that it was the Interest of all Men to endeavour, by the grace of God, to partake in the Benefits of Christ's purchas'd Redemption; and more especially of 'em who had forfeited their Lives to the Laws of the Country. Then I took occasion to exhort 'em in the most pressing Manner, to improve the short time allow'd them, in fearing, loving and serving God, and turning unto him with their whole Hearts, from whom they had so deeply revolted. I instructed them in the nature and design of the Christian Sacraments how we were early dedicated to God in our Baptism, and that we ought to Mourn for the many Breaches of our Baptismal Vows and Engagements; And that Christ having given us another Sacrament, as a Confirmation of our Baptismal Vows, as his last Legacy and Token of his Love, when he was leaving this World, it is our Duty to receive this Sacrament, for strengthening our Graces, confirming good Purposes in us, and disposing us for Eternity; That being Partakers of Christ's death, represented to us in this blessed Sacrament, we may likewise become Partakers of his Resurrection.
When these, and such like Exhortations were given them, they behav'd themselves gravely, but for all the Prayers and Exhortations which could be possibly said, they were all very far from appearing to have any due Concern upon their Spirits, in Consideration of the most miserable Circumstances they were then in. Anne Senior told a Romantick Story of an Angel appearing to her; and both she and Sylvia Sherlock frequently smil'd in time of Devotion, for which they were reprov'd and promis'd not to do the same again: The other Woman Reynolds appear'd always with abundance of Gravity and appearance of Devotion. Neither the Men nor Women could make regular Responses, only Richard Herbert and Alexander
Jones (at times when he thought fit) made such Responses in complying with the Worship, as they could. Timms and Brown were much afflicted with sickness, and although they could read, yet their Weakness and the bad Air of the Hold effected them so much, that they could hardly see. Elizabeth Wade, alias, Boucher, seldom attended in Chappel; but as I visited her frequently in the Hold, she pretended Penitence, but shew'd small Signs thereof. They were for the most part very ignorant in Religion, which made me take extraordinary Pains to cultivate the first Principles of Christianity into them, and press them to their Duty, by the threat'nings of Hell and Joys of Heaven; by the Rewards annexed to Virtue and Goodness, and the unavoidable Punishments following upon an irreligious and wicked Life.
Upon Saturday, the 5th of August, the Report of the abovemention'd ten Malefactors, under Sentence of Death, was made to his Majesty in Council; and seven of them, viz. Richard Herbert for breaking into the Dwelling-house of Richard Langford, with a design to steal and bear away Goods, &c. Eliz. Wade, alias, Boucher, for Shop-lifting; Alexander Jones for a Street-robbery, in assaulting Mr. Fawcet; Mary Reynolds for Shop lifting, and stealing 5 China Bowls, val. 4 l, John Prat, for breaking a Chest of Drawers, and taking thence a Canvas-bag, val. 1 d. 4 Guineas, and two Shillings in silver; Jane Senior, for privately stealing three Guineas in the House of Samuel Thresher; and Sylvia Sherlock, for privately stealing 7 l. from Charles Headman; receiv'd his Majesty's most gracious Reprive. The Remaining three, viz. Thomas Timms, Thomas Perry and Edward Brown were order'd for Execution.
What follows is an ingenuous Narrative of their Carriage under Sentence, to all concern'd or desirous to know the same.
The said Thomas Timms, Thomas Perry and Edward Brown, were indicted for assaulting Samuel Sells on the Highway, putting him in fear, and taking from him a Pen-knife, val. 4 d. and 20 l. in Money, on Tuesday the 4th of May last, about 5 in the Morning, near Hounslow-Heath.
Thomas Timms, about 28 Years of Age; had a mean Education suitable to his Parent's Circumstances. He did not appear to have been so extravagantly Wicked, as many who bring themselves into the like Misfortunes. When of Age, his Parents and Friends put him Apprentice to a Carver of Chairs , when his Apprentiship was out, he Married and liv'd in good Repute for some Years, his Honesty not being suspected, till wanting Business, he listed himself a Souldier in the first Regiment of Guards, he commonly follow'd his Employment, except when upon Duty, which he said was so often, that his Business could not Maintain his Family: And a few Months since falling Sick, he was put into St. Bartholomew's-Hospital, but then being reduc'd to great Straits, having had little or no Money allow'd him to supply his Necessities. Afterwards recovering his Health so as to go Abroad, and wanting Money, the first Enterprize he took in hand, was to go with his two Companions on the 3d of May last, towards Hounslow Heath, in order to to rob such People as they should Meet with that Night, they all three lay in the Fields, and next Morning they met with a poor Man, who telling them he had no Money, they let him go; soon after Samuel Sells from Windsor coming up in his Chaise, they stopt him; Brown held the Horse till Timms receiv'd 3 Half-Crowns, but Brown came up and said that was too little, and demanding more, Sells gave them about 10 or 11 s. more, which was all they got, amounting to about 17 s. as they all three constantly aver'd, although he swore much more against them; allegding that whilst the other robb'd him, Perry stood with a Truncheon over his Head, which Perry denied, saying that he was at a considerable Distance, and offer'd no such Violence to him, but confess'd that all of them had Truncheons, which they afterwards threw away, besides a Sword and a Cane which Brown had. Timms had been taught to read and write in his Youth, yet had so far forgot that he could now read but little. He said, that he had liv'd pretty regularly, till of late, when either Want or Despair seizing him, the Devil working upon his bad Inclinations induc'd him to take that desperate Resolution of robbing on the High-way. He confess'd that he had kept Company with lewd Women. And said that he never committed Theft or Robbery before, and that the Action for which he died, was the only capital Crime he ever was guilty of.
He confess'd himself to be among the chief of Sinners, begging Pardon of God and all the World, which he hop'd to obtain, as believing the Scriptures to be the Word of God, and Christ the Son of God to be the only Saviour of Sinners, and however great his Sins had been, yet that he always knew, and wanted not Inclinations to do that which is good, which he pleaded not as a Merit, but only relied and cast himself upon the Mercy of God, Merits of Jesus Christ, who died for our Sins, and rose again for our Justification, and who now sits at the Right-hand of God, pleading and interceeding for the Pardon of the Sins of poor Mortals. He always appear'd very Devout and Attentive at Prayers and Exhortations,
and when I spoke to him in private, express'd a deep Sense of Religion upon his Spirit, with a firm Hope of attaining eternal Life, through Jesus Christ our only Saviour. His Mother with many Tears, said, that he was her only Child, and that he had never Offended his Parents, neither had she ever heard of any Crime committed by him, excepting this one for which he died.
THOMAS PERRY, about forty Years of Age, born at Cardiff, in Wales, of honest but mean Parents, had no Education at Schools, and could not read nor write. His Parents died when he was young, and left him a poor Orphan, being cast upon the World to do for himself as he could: When he was of Age he came to London, and bound himself to a Glass-grinder in Shoe-Lane, with whom he serv'd out his Time; after which he listed himself in the First Regiment of Guards , where he serv'd for some time in Flanders, before the Peace of Utretch; after which he return'd to London with the Regiment, continuing in the same, till the unfortunate Adventure befell him for which he died. He own'd, (although at first all the Three denied it) that they had made an Appointment to go out in Company and rob upon the High-way, and that Timms was the first Proposer of it, tho' indeed he and Brown were too ready to comply with the Proposal. He said, that in the preceding course of his Life, he had behav'd himself with indifferent Circumspection, till about a Year ago, he gave himself to a more loose and irregular Life than formerly, never going to Church, as he had been formerly used to do. He said, that having been at Windsor some time ago, he met with the Misfortune of being dangerously bit in the Leg by a Dog, which confin'd him to his Quarters there for some Weeks, during which time he had no Body to look after him, and small allowance of Money to supply his Necessities; but when he recover'd, and was able to Travel, coming up to Town, and there falling into some Differences and Jars with certain Persons, who had Business with him, and not having constant but very uncertain Employ at his Trade of Glass grinding, and being short of Money; These and such like Misfortunes and Discontents made him prone to engage and ready to comply with the first Proposal of robbing on the Highway. Notwithstanding Mr. Sells swore that, while the other two robb'd him, he, viz. Perry, held a Truncheon over his Head, threatning to knock him down in case of the least Opposition; yet he said, that he did nothing but stood at a considerable distance 8 or 9 yards off; and Sells asking if he knew him? he answer'd, he did, for he had frequently drunk at his House, for it is a Publick one at Windsor, and he added, of a very indifferent Character. He confest that he had not liv'd conformable to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, having been too much guilty of accompanying lewd Women, altho' he had a Wife and several Children of his own; of drinking to Excess; Swearing and keeping idle Company. Although he was Illeterate, yet he had more Knowledge of Religion than a great many of these unfortunate Wretches. He declar'd himself very Penitent for all his Sins; having been always very grave and attentive at Prayers and Exhortations, that he believ'd to be saved through the Merits of Jesus Christ, who suffer'd and died for his Sins; that he was in Peace with all Mankind, forgiving all Men the Injuries done him, as he expected forgiveness at the Hands of God; and died in appearance of having a firm Hope of obtaining Mercy from God, and eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
EDWARD BROWN, about 24 Years of Age, born of honest Parents in the City of Oxford, who took care of his Education, when he was young, putting him to School, and instructing him in the Principles of Religion, which he understood indifferently well, according to his Station and Capacity. When of Age, they put him out Apprentice to a Glass-grinder , to which he serv'd out his time; after which he Married, and continu'd a good Husband for a Year, but then betook himself to idle Company, spending the Money he had gain'd in two or three Weeks, in one Day or two; about which time he contracted Acquaintance with strange Women, who with other bad Company prov'd his Ruin. He appear'd to be very Ingenuous in his last Confessions, owning that after they had taken their Cups liberally and spent all their Money, they agreed to walk out towards Hounslow-Heath, he having a Sword and a Cane, and all of 'em taking Truncheons in their Hands, to rob who they met upon the High-way, not extenuating his Crime, but frankly acknowledging that it was by Consent they went out, adding, that such a Thought never came into his Mind before, and that it was the Devil put it into their Herrts to commit so notorious an Offence; but who was the first Proposer of betaking themselves to such a wicked Course, he could not positively tell, but believed it was Timms. He was afflicted with Sickness most part of the time he was in the Hold, which render'd him the more incapable of performing his Duty, as he ought and desir'd to do. He seem'd to be a young Man naturally of a good and easy Temper, and own'd that he stopt and held Mr. Sells's Horse, till Timms robbed him, and oblig'd Sells to give him more Money, than at first he had given to Timms, till Mr. Sells begg'd they would let him go, having no more left him but Eighteen-pence. All the Three constantly affirm'd that they got only Seventeen Shillings; which was 5 s. 8 d. to each of 'em, for which they died, never having robb'd or stollen more in their Life, as they said, and
went to Death with it. I told 'em that it was not the greatness or smallness of the Sum, but the breach of the express Law of the Land, whereby they were forbid to attack, threaten or rob any Person upon pain of Death, on the Highway, which took away their Lives; and as to the small Sum they robb'd the Man off, if it had been 100 l. instead of 17 s. they would have taken it. The Truth of all which they acknowledg'd, and in consequence the Justice of their Sentence according to Law. I took occasion to represent to Brown, how ungrateful he had been to God and Man for the good Education he had got, in being guilty of so great Wickedness. He acknowledg'd, that he had had the Advantage of a good Education, but had been more heedless than he ought; and that in several Instances he had been disobedient to his Parents. I exhorted him to repent of all Sins in particular, and especially that of the capital Sin he had committed, and which had brought him to so much Shame and Sorrow, for which he justly forfeited his Life to the Laws of the Kingdom, and brought this Disgrace, not only upon himself, but upon his Family and Kindred who were to survive him. He confess'd himself to have been among the chief of Sinners, begging Pardon of God and Man for his manifold Offences, expressing a strong Confidence in the Mercy of God, thro' Jesus Christ our Lord, in whom he believed as his only Saviour, confessing the Justice of his Sentence, and that the Punishment of his Iniquity was infinitely less than what he had deserved, forgiving all Men the Injuries done him, as he expected forgiveness from a gracious and merciful God, and dying in Peace with all the World.
All the Prisoners who were under Sentence, were confident that they should get a gracious Reprieve from his Majesty, which I believe made them something more careless in their Duty, than otherwise they would have been. These three unfortunate Men having entertain'd the same Apprehensions: When the Account came of their being order'd for Execution, they were struck with Surprize; yet were of such Courage and Resolution, that one could scarce discern any visible change upon them; only that they were more sollicitous in their Preparation for Eternity, and indeed all of 'em went to suffer (as they said in firm Hopes of eternal Life, through the Mercy of God, in Jesus Christ our Lord.
At the Place of Execution,
THey all behav'd very gravely and devoutly, complying with the Prayers, and making what Responses they could. They desir'd, after the 23d Psalm of David was sung, to sing the Lamentation of a Sinner, which being comply'd with, they said, that they had made full Confessions before, and had no more to add, only, Brown said, that what farther Confessions he had, he would make the same to God.
This all the Account given by me,
JAMES GUTHRIE, Minister at Newgate.

TC TO EDWARD CHAPMAN; 29 July 1851; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18510729-TC-EC-01; CL 26: 116
Chelsea, 29 july, 1851—
Dear Sir,
You will see the Titlepage itself in a day or so: I have just finished the last of the Proof-slips (clearly within the required limit of pages, you will rejoice to know); and have sent a Titlepage to Robson,—"Life of John Sterling" (or John Sterling's Life) "by—" and that is all.
I suppose you will not publish for a month or more. One of these days it is possible word may come from America for an Early Copy; but Robson himself can furnish that,—the rest to lie strictly dead for the space of a Steamer or two.
I am off on Saturday to Malvern for a Water-Cure. I shall at any rate be out of the reach of Koh-i-Nigger, or the Mountain of Darkness and his foolish glaziery!1—
Yours always truly /
T. Carlyle

The ability to feel guilt-free when shopping provides a good overall feeling to anyone that is looking for something special, an item that is needed or one they have been waiting to purchase for some time. Everyone works hard for the pay they receive and in today's economy the hours out-weigh the paycheck more and more. With families to provide for and bills to pay it is a rare occasion that one can splurge on something special without feeling guilty about it.
Today, June 18 marked the holiday for just that. The Americans Premier Eventologist, Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith created this special day back in 1994. Do something for yourself and celebrate "National Splurge Day"!
Although we try and keep the purse strings taunt because of all the responsibilities we all have pressing us on a daily basis this holiday gives everyone a chance to take a step back and treat themselves or someone special to something that can be small or large depending upon their financial situation.
Some great ways to celebrate this wonderful holiday is to splurge on a dinner out for two, purchase a piece of jewelry, a new shade of lipstick, replace that old worn out baseball cap, buy that tool to complete the latest project in the house, make a trip to the spa or beauty parlor or a massage, manicure or dip in the pool.
Sometimes something small can put a great big smile on one's face and not always having to want and never receive is a wonderful gift in itself.
Give yourself a little happiness and shop guilt-free and celebrate "National Splurge Day" today!

This professional team of baseball players is rooted in Cleveland Ohio and plays in the Central Division. Since 1901 they have enjoyed the status of a Major League Franchise. Without a doubt the Cleveland Indians have proved their mite and strength to their bitter opponents at the play ground along with the legions of fans some of which are sitting in the ballpark. Winning two World Series Championships, first in 1920 and then again in 1948 they have sure made their place in the history of American Baseball. However in recent years the Cleveland Indians are seem to be going through a dry spell, but that does not waver their spirits as they seem to be in full form to make rocking come back. This one of its kind team will show their talent and team spirit once again by rising up to the challenge and making it back to the top, because that is where it belongs. So grab your deal of their tickets now to find out what happens in this upcoming match.
Cleveland Tickets are considered hot commodities since 1901, at that time the team was called Cleveland Blues. The team has had some excellent players in the past who proved to be very promising such as the Jim Thome and Albert Belle. A bevy of young players including sluggers like Matt La Porta and Carlos Santana are in full form to shine and win the match in flying colors. So get out there and cheer for your all time favorite team dressed in team colors, red, blue and white. Cheer them with any of the various nick names they have acquired over the years. Scream out their name and refer to them as The Tribe or The Wahoos. Or how about just calling them the Indians guys? Whatever your choice of the name you sure will have a wonderful time watching them make strides once again. The team's mascot is chief Wahoo who cheers for the team whenever they score. Both the mascot and the team's logo is criticized for perpetuating Native American Stereotypes and many have protested against them time and again.
The team has remained the proud winner of seven AL Central Titles, which happens to be the most in the entire division. That's not it guys the Indians have also set an example by achieving an American League record of 111 wins during 1954. The record stood for more than four decades. Now isn't that a mighty achievement or what? This resilient boasts off a bevy of talented players and is owned by Larry Dolan and managed by Manny Acta. The general manager of the team is Mark Shiparo. In reference to the controversies surrounding their team logo and nickname the Indians have shifted to showing different hats without chief Wahoo logo, an effort to distance themselves from the controversies surrounding them.
Only a few lucky ones can make it to the Cleveland Indian baseball matches and experience the teeth grinding excitement all live. But the rest must not get heartbroken as Cleveland Indians own radio station called WTAM gives full coverage to all the matches held between Indians and opposing teams.

Woody Herman: Early Autumn
Early Autumn
Woody Herman Orchestra
The Definitive Stan Getz (Verve 589950)
Stan Getz (tenor sax), Woody Herman (alto sax),
big band featuring Terry Gibbs (vibraphone).
Composed by Ralph Burns.
Recorded: Hollywood, December 30, 1948
Rating: 97/100 (learn more)
During the 1950s, tenor saxophonist Stan Getz became the most popular of Lester Young's followers. But his breakthrough came as a result of his probing solo on the Woody Herman Orchestra's 1948 recording of Ralph Burn's gorgeous ballad "Early Autumn," which showed off his lovely sound and advanced sense of lyricism. Getz remained popular even after other tenor styles overtook his in fashionability.

Functional Optimization for Fair Surface Design
Henry Packard Moreton and Carlo H. Séquin
EECS Department
University of California, Berkeley
Technical Report No. UCB/CSD-92-664
This paper presents a simple-to-use mechanism for the creation of complex smoothly shaped surfaces of any genus or topology. The work described here is the result of research into the fairness of curves and surfaces specified through geometric interpolarity constraints. Constraints consist of positions and, optionally, surface normals and surface curvatures. The outcome of our investigation is a recommendation for the use of nonlinear optimization techniques that minimize a fairness functional based on the variation of curvature. The approach produces very high quality surfaces with predictable, intuitive behavior, while generating, where possible, simple shapes, such as cylinders, spheres, or tori which are commonly used in geometric modeling.
From a designer's point of view, this approach allows the specification of a desired surface in the most natural way. Though computationally intense, the techniques described have now become practical because of the wide availability of very fast work stations. As the processing power available on each desk-top further increases, the techniques described here will become real-time and interactive.

So. The question is - if we make out with these Lela Rose for Payless Isidro Ankle Strap Wedges ($65), will it leave marks on that soft, delicious, green leather?
Ok, you're right, that's weird. We won't smooch our new shoes. But we're gonna Scotch-guard 'em because someone's gonna drool on these puppies. They're too gorgeous not to.

text: The launch occurred at 12:30 local time, on schedule. Kamanin was in the bunker and the other VVS staff at the observation point. The launch went perfectly, without deviations. After reaching orbit, the airlock was ordered to deploy. All went normally: deployment and retraction of the lock, pressurisation. Simferopol and Moscow received television images from the spacecraft, but the orbit was out of range for reception at Baikonur. However Moscow reported that they could see 2/3 of the airlock and it seemed to be fully inflated. Everyone went off to eat, and returned two hours later. On greeting Korolev, "Good evening", Korolev grimly replied, "No, this evening, whatever it is, is not good. The spacecraft has exploded...." As the spacecraft was supposed to come over Russia at the beginning of the third orbit, neither IP-4, IP-6 or IP-7 could contact the spacecraft. There were no signals, no response from the Tral system, no telemetry. No further contact could be made on the third or fourth orbits either. Analysis showed that the spacecraft began the re-entry sequence, the TDU engine fired, but the spacecraft did not leave orbit. After 29 minutes, the on-board self-destruct system, programmed to note such a situation, blew the ship up. But where did the signal commanding the re-entry sequence come from? A ground signal or one from aboard the spacecraft? Until the failure can be fully analysed, no manned flight of Voskhod-2 will be possible.

Online game site Gaikai Video Demo
Previously mentioned Gaikai has just released a video demonstration showing how it works, and how well. The blog post accompanying the video has some interesting details:
(1) No installing anything. (I'm running regular Windows Vista, with the latest Firefox and Flash is installed.)
(2) This is a low-spec server, it's a very custom configuration, fully virtualized. Why? To keep the costs to an absolute minimum. We had 7 Call of Duty games running on our E3 demo server recently.
(3) Data travel distance is around 800 miles (round trip) on this demo as that's where the server is. I get a 21 millisecond ping on that route. My final delay will be 10 milliseconds as I just added a server in Irvine California yesterday, but it's not added to our grid yet. (So this demo is twice the delay I personally would get, the good news is I don't notice it anyway.)
(4) This server is not hosted by a Tier 1 provider, just a regular Data Center in Freemont California. Also, I'm not cheating and using fiber connections for our demos. This is a home cable connection in a home.
(7) Our bandwidth is mostly sub 1 megabit across all games. (Works with Wifi, works on netbooks with no 3D card etc.)
Check out the video after the break. It looks like they might really have something here. The demo shows Spore (PC version), Mario Kart 64 (in an Emulator), and several others all running within FireFox.

I finally found it!
Jul 06, 2009
By Jill Grant
My local grocer sells an amazing dip in their deli that I have been buying for several years now. Each time I ask for the recipe they tell me that they can't give it out. I knew based on the ingredients that they were using a mix, but I couldn't find it. Then one day while looking at grocery items here on Amazon I came across Knorr Chili Con Queso Dip Mix and I thought we might have a winner. I wasn't 100% sure that it would be the same one, but I was willing to take a chance. When I received it I did have to figure out how to make a smaller quantity because the directions are for commercial use amounts. Once finished though I was thrilled!! Now I now longer pay $6.99 a pound and with the amount you get here on Amazon it will last me a long lng time.

So addicting
Sep 27, 2009
By A. Meagher
I have had this dip from the deli but now I can make it at home. There arent quantities for smaller portions, so add 16 oz sour cream, 1/2 cup mayo and 1.7 oz mix. Let sit in fridge for at least an hour. I add some chopped black olives and shredded cheddar cheese. I will try cilantro next time. Super easy and unfortunately I could eat the whole bowl myself

this is it
Oct 22, 2011
By J. Tierney
I wish everyone who has spent $5.99 a lb in the deli section knew this was here. it is EXACTLY the same one we've bought for years and grumbled about the cost as it doubled since we started. Evidently a lot of us do tho since AMAZON can't keep it in stock! One can lasted 10 mos and we have it about once a month so the cost is not a lot altho it seems so at first. I'm on the 'notify' list when it comes in stock so we can stock up again. i'm actually giving a can to my daughter for her Christmas stocking, lol.

Really, really good!
Mar 31, 2010
By SMW
This makes an awesome cold dip! Thank you A. Meager for the recipe. I didn't follow it exactly. I used 24 oz sour cream, a little over 1/2 cup mayo, 6-7 very heaping regular spoons of the mix, 10 or so shakes Cholula Chili Lime Hot sauce, Shredded sharp cheddar cheese. The can comes with a meatball and a fiesta salad recipe. I think this would be great in rice, or anything you normally use a taco mix in. You can find more information on this mix at [...]
Amazon rocks, so of course my shipment was on time and perfect. I have Amazon Prime shipping, which a great deal since I order from them a lot.

Sandra Bullock came out of her self-imposed seclusion on Tuesday to make a statement that rumors of a sex tape of her and Jesse James are false. Bullock said, "There is no sex tape. There never has been one and there never will be one."
Friend and colleague George Lopez has visited Bullock twice at her home, though she has not made any public appearances since news of James' infidelity broke. Rumors circulated online that there was a sex tape that James might use to embarrass Bullock, though his lawyer commented on Monday that James loves Bullock and wants to save his marriage.

Red Raiders Continue Spring Slate With Two Home Matches
Emily Wright and the Red Raiders will play two home matches Thursday at the United Spirit Arena.
March 26, 2013
LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech volleyball program will continue its spring slate Thursday as the Red Raiders will face both Midland College and Lubbock Christian University at the United Spirit Arena.
The Red Raiders are set to battle Midland College at 9:30 a.m. Thursday morning before returning to the court later in the evening to face cross-town LCU at 6 p.m.
Both matches are open to the public and will be played on the United Spirit Arena main court. Fans should enter the arena through the west doors located near the Texas Tech ticket office.
This will be Tech's second set of spring matches after the Red Raiders spent Spring Break in Hawaii a little over a week ago where they played both Hawaii-Pacific and the University of Hawaii.
The Red Raiders will close the spring with back-to-back trips to the Dallas area, beginning April 6 with an all-day tournament at UT Arlington. Tech will also compete in the Lonestar College Showcase on April 20 at the Dallas Convention Center.

Obama's border talk: I call bull
There's been a bit of a stir over President Obama's comments suggesting that he is open to the idea of sending National Guard troops down to the southern border to deal with long-festering chaos.
"We're going to examine whether and if National Guard deployments would make sense and under what circumstances they would make sense," Obama said during an interview with journalists for regional papers, including a McClatchy reporter.
Yadda yadda yadda. I call bull.
No meaningful security force will be mobilized along our border.
It will never happen as long as the La Raza/Race lobbyist has a seat at Obama's table and certainly not as long as DHS is headed by a secretary who is incensed that basic immigration laws are being enforced.
And not as long as the White House is supported and populated by open-borders activists pushing for shamnesty and other illegal immigration-legitimizing measures (hint: Census power grab) designed to boost Democrat voter rolls.
Not going to happen. The state of the borders will remain unsound.
I'd love to be proven wrong.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder characterized by defective hemoglobin (a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the tissues of the body).
Sickle cell disease involves the red blood cells, or hemoglobin, and their ability to carry oxygen. Normal hemoglobin cells are smooth, round, and flexible, like the letter "O," so they can move through the vessels in our bodies easily. Sickle cell hemoglobin cells are stiff and sticky, and form into the shape of a sickle, or the letter "C," when they lose their oxygen. These sickle cells tend to cluster together, and cannot easily move through the blood vessels. The cluster causes a blockage and stops the movement of healthy, normal oxygen-carrying blood. This blockage is what causes the painful and damaging complications of sickle cell disease.
Sickle cells only live for about 10 to 20 days, while normal hemoglobin can live up to 120 days. Also, sickle cells risk being destroyed by the spleen because of their shape and stiffness. The spleen is an organ that helps filter the blood of infections and sickled cells get stuck in this filter and die. Due to the decreased number of hemoglobin cells circulating in the body, a person with sickle cell disease is chronically anemic. The spleen also suffers damage from the sickled cells blocking healthy oxygen carrying cells. Without a normal functioning spleen, these individuals are more at risk for infections. Infants and young children are at risk for life-threatening infections.
The most common variations of the sickle cell gene include the following:
All forms of sickle cell disease can exhibit the complications associated with the disease.
Sickle cell disease primarily affects those of African descent and Hispanics of Caribbean ancestry, but the trait has also been found in those with Middle Eastern, Indian, Latin American, Native American, and Mediterranean heritage.
It has been estimated that over 70,000 people in the US are affected by the disease. Millions worldwide suffer complications from sickle cell disease.
Sickle cell is an inherited disease caused by a genetic mutation. Genes are found on structures in the cells of our body called "chromosomes." There are normally 46 total, or 23 pairs, of chromosomes in each cell of our body. The 11th pair of chromosomes contains a gene responsible for normal hemoglobin production.
A mutation or error in this gene is what causes sickle cell disease. This mutation is thought to have originated in areas of the world where malaria was common, since people with sickle trait do not get malaria. The sickle trait actually protects them from the parasite that causes malaria, which is carried by mosquitoes. Malaria is most often seen in Africa and in the Mediterranean area of Europe.
Sickle cell (HbSS) is a genetic disease. A person will be born with sickle cell disease only if two HbS genes are inherited - one from the mother and one from the father. A person who has only one HbS gene is healthy and said to be a "carrier" of the disease. They may also be described as having "sickle cell trait." A carrier has an increased chance to have a child with sickle cell disease. This type of inheritance is called autosomal recessive.
Autosomal means that the gene is on one of the first 22 pairs of chromosomes that do not determine gender, so that males and females are equally affected by the disease.
Recessive means that two copies of the gene, one inherited from each parent, are necessary to have the condition.
Children with sickle cell disease = S S (one in four, or 25 percent)
Children who are carriers of the gene like their parents = A S S A
(two in four, or 50 percent have sickle cell trait)
Children who do not get the gene from either parent: A A (one in four, or 25 percent)
Once parents have had a child with sickle cell disease, there is a one in four, or 25 percent chance with each subsequent pregnancy, for another child to be born with sickle cell disease. This means that there is a three out of four, or 75 percent chance, for another child to not have sickle cell disease. There is a 50 percent chance that a child will be born with sickle cell trait, like the parents.
The following is a list of symptoms and complications associated with sickle cell disease. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms and complications may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Any and all major organs are affected by sickle cell disease. The liver, heart, kidneys, gallstone, eyes, bones, and joints can suffer damage from the abnormal function of the sickle cells and their inability to flow through the small blood vessels correctly. Problems may include the following:
The symptoms of sickle cell disease may resemble other blood disorders or medical problems. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination, diagnostic procedures for sickle cell disease may include blood tests and other evaluation procedures. Many states provide routine newborn screening blood tests in order to begin proper treatment as soon as possible. Early diagnosis is essential in providing proper preventative treatment for some of the devastating complications of the disease.
A hemoglobin electrophoresis is a blood test that can determine if a person is a carrier of a specific sickle cell trait, or has any of the diseases associated with the sickle cell gene.
Specific treatment for
sickle cell disease will be determined by your physician based on:
Early diagnosis and prevention of complications is critical in sickle cell disease treatment. Treatment may include:

"I tried this recipe for the Honey Recipe Ingredient Challenge for the week of 9/8/14!I DID make slight adjustments to this recipe by using 1 tsp. salt instead of 1/2 tsp. salt!I also used melted margarine instead of butter to conserve on my butter supply and I think that I WILL try adding: 1 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. all-spice and 1/4 tsp. nutmeg to dry ingredients for a spicier flavor! I'd baked honey cakes from time to time in the late 80' and early 90's.The honey cake recipes called for spices and that added flavor to the cake! I do feel that honey IS bland when used in baked goods, but the recipe CAN be adjusted as the tester sees fit!)I have found that when I baked these muffins, that it is a good idea to bake at 15 TO 20 minutes-my first batch of muffins were fine on top, but darker than was necessary on the bottom as I'd used a heavier type of muffin pan! My 2nd pan baked 20 minutes and they were fine! I made these muffins again, using the 1 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. allspice and1/4 tsp. nutmeg and added 1/2 cup raisins along with 1/8 cup all-purpose flour to batter.I rated this recipe as a *4 as the 2nd time around, my batches of muffins adhered to the paper liner! I sampled them and they definitely HAD an improved taste with the raisins and spices! It was just that the liners adhered to the muffins and I saw MORE muffin on the liner than seeing a full-sized muffin when liner was removed! I DID get 18 muffins the 2nd time around! delowenstein"

"I really like the flavor of these, however, I think I might have over-baked them a little because they were dry. I did make a maple syrup and powdered sugar glaze that I liked! I will try again though and keep a better eye on them."

"These make a delicious treat for honey fans! I substituted in one cup of white whole wheat flour (King Arthur brand) for added nutrition and added 1 teaspoon of grated orange zest to intensify the orange flavor. Yummy!"
