text: Populist GM Executives Will Muddle Through With Only Three JetsHamilton Nolan11/21/08 3:29pmFiled to: Gmcorporate americaPublic relationsFlackerySpinJets68EditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink General Motors caught a leeetle bit of flack this week for flying its executives to Washington on a private jet in order to beg for a taxpayer bailout. "Hey," said politicians, the media, and the general public, "you have less than zero money. Should you really have spent thousands on a private jet?" We would also add, "Shouldn't you have driven a car ?" Later GM and its fellow broke automakers left Washington with no money, making this one of the colossal PR fuckups of 2008, and possibly of the preceding decade as well. But everything is different now, because GM is going to have somewhat fewer private jets. So please give them some multiple of billions of dollars okay? They did have five company planes. Now they're cutting down to just three. Tightening the belt! General Motors, the embattled US carmaker, buffeted by criticism for sending its chief executive on a private jet to plead for government aid, vowed today to stop leasing two of its five company planes. GM is "very sensitive" to "the symbolic issue of people showing up in Washington in corporate jets", spokesman Tom Wilkinson said, promising more cuts to come at the company. Now you know that spokesman was probably desperately searching Craigslist job ads at the time of this quote and didn't give it much thought, so cut him some slack. Because let's face it, GM is going broke broke. [Guardian via Clusterstock ]Reply68 repliesLeave a reply

New Zealand's navy is to work with the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to protect Pacific regional fisheries.
Defence Minister Phil Goff said today that two Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) crew have joined the crew of the USCG vessel Walnut as part of a Pacific regional fisheries protection operation.
Mr Goff said the personnel exchange would be annual.
The RNZN officers be onboard the Walnut for almost a month as the vessel patrols the Economic Exclusion Zones of several Pacific states and territories.
It would participate in operation Kuru Kuru, an annual multilateral maritime surveillance operation focusing on detection and enforcement response to illegal maritime activity. Other countries involved included; Australia, Tonga, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Kiribati, Cook Islands and France.
During the deployment the RNZN officers and USCG would develop protocols for sharing vessel sighting information between the RNZN, USCG, New Zealand Maritime Coordination Centre and the Fisheries Forum Agency to maximise the detection and identification of vessel engaged in illegal activity.

Verizon iPhone helps Apple outgrow Android in March ad impressionsThe online presence of the iPhone grew 17 percent month over month in March, largely thanks to sales of the Verizon iPhone, according to new data from Millennial Media, the largest independent mobile advertising network.
The information was revealed on Thursday as part of the advertising network's monthly "Mobile Mix" report. Based on ad impressions on Millennial Media's network, the iPhone grew 17 percent month over month, and the iOS mobile operating system grew 11 percent.
Apple's strong performance in the mobile space was largely tied to the Verizon iPhone, which accounted for 8.2 percent of iPhone advertising impressions in the month of March.
The growth of the iPhone in March outpaced all devices running the Google Android mobile operating system on Millennial Media's network, though Android remains the largest platform. Apple's share of smartphone ad impressions went from 28 percent a month prior to 31 percent in March, while Android slipped from 51 percent to 48 percent.
Android's losses in March are a reversal from previous months, as Google's mobile operating system has continued to grow on Millennial's network. For example, just last August, Apple's iOS accounted for 48 percent of smartphones, while Android took just 26 percent.
In March, Apple remained the top manufacturer on Millennial's network when all devices, including tablets, were factored in, taking 32.08 percent. The iPhone, too, was the top smartphone, representing 19.42 percent of all devices.
And when breaking down application revenue by platform, Apple took a 47 percent share, despite having a smaller number of devices seen in Millennial's advertising network. Android, the largest platform, took a 36 percent share.
Connected devices like the iPad increased 21 percent month over month, and now make up 17 percent of the device impression share. Smartphones account for 64 percent of devices, while "feature phones" are 19 percent.
March also saw the launch of the iPad 2, and Millennial's network saw iPad impressions grow accordingly, 7 percent month over month.
Millennial Media became the largest independent advertising network after Google acquired AdMob, and Apple bought Quattro Wireless last year. Apple's acquisition of Quattro paved the way for the company to launch its own advertising network, iAds, in 2010.

AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - June 11, 2014) - CourseTrends - Thanks to CourseTrends' Tee Time ReservationCenter, courses across the country are stuffing tee sheets and booking record numbers of rounds. They are reporting increased customer traffic at their courses and in their pro shops. As the season gets into full swing, we'd like to share a story from one of our new customers and urge you to join the success.
Let's look at Tallgrass Golf Club in Shoreham, New York, located within the New York City area. Tallgrass signed up for CourseTrends Tee Time Reservation Center last month, and they've had incredible success.
Contact us today to learn how you can try our Tee Time Reservation Center for 30 days FREE of charge!
For the past month, Tall grass has used the reservation center to handle rollover calls, meaning the calls they're unable to answer because they're busy helping customers in the pro shop or elsewhere. After a few rings these calls are transferred to our reservationists. In the past many of these, if not all, would have been missed.
When the month was over, our Tee Time Reservation Center had booked more than 170 rounds for Tallgrass Golf Club entirely from rollover calls. They were quite pleased.
"The CourseTrends Tee Time Reservation Center has been extremely valuable to us," said John Napier of Tallgrass Golf Club. "The Reservation Center has allowed our staff to better assist customers in the pro shop, because we know that if the phone rings, CourseTrends will get it. Our customers are happy with the service and we're happy with the extra rounds being booked."
Contact us today to learn how you can try our Tee Time Reservation Center for 30 days FREE of charge!
The benefits of our Tee Time Reservation Center are numerous. Our trained reservation agents are experts at handling customer inquiries, selling tee time inventory and freeing you to handle customers in front of you. The end results include better service, a greater volume of tee times sold and more revenue and traffic at your course.
No matter how good you are, you can't be everywhere at once, and that means you're missing calls. Missing calls = missing reservations = missing revenue.
So, use our Tee Time Reservation Center FREE for 30 days, and fill your course and your tee sheet to the brim.
If you'd like to sign up for a 30 day FREE trial of the Tee Time Reservation Center, contact CourseTrends Today!

Die Zauberflöte from Opernhaus Zürich
A traditional production of Mozart and Schikaneder's singspiel Die Zauberflöte can go for charm, fantasy, and enjoyable camp. It can also turn trite and cloying.
Central City Opera celebrated the 60th anniversary of The Ballad of Baby Doe with a hip, canny, multi-faceted new production.
Someone forgot to tell Central City Opera that it would be difficult to fit Puccini's (usually) architecturally large Tosca on their small stage.
A cast worthy of Bayreuth made for an unforgettable Wagnerian experience at the Sommer Festspiele in Baden-Baden.
Loving attention to the highest quality was everywhere evident in Des Moines Metro Opera's Manon.
Des Moines Metro Opera had (almost) all the laughs in the right places, and certainly had all the right singers in these meaty roles to make for an enjoyable outing with Verdi's masterpiece
With the thermometers reaching boiling point, there's no doubt that summer has finally arrived in London. But, the sun seems to have been shining over the large marquee in Holland Park all summer.
J.S. Bach's cerebral Art of the Fugue in Aix, Verdi's massive Requiem in Orange, Ibn al-Muqaffa' 's fable of the camel, jackal, wolf and crow, Sophocles' blind Oedipus Rex and the Bible's triumphant Psalm No. 150 in Aix.
The champagne corks popped at the close of this year's Jette Parker Young Artists Summer Performance at the Royal Opera House, with Prince Orlofsky's celebratory toast forming a fitting conclusion to some superb singing.
Bryn Terfel is making a habit of performing Russian patriarchs at the Proms.
What happens when just everything about an operatic performance goes joyously right?
Two years ago, the well-established Des Moines Metro Opera experimented with a 2nd Stages program, with performances programmed outside of their home stage at Simpson College.
What to make of the unannounced decision to open this concert with the Marseillaise? I am sure it was well intended, and perhaps should leave it at that.
In a fairy-tale, it can sometimes feel as if one is living a dream but on the verge of being awoken to a shock. Such is life in these dark and uncertain days.
The tense, three hour knock-down-drag-out seduction of Beauty by Pleasure consumed our souls in this triumphal evening. Forget Time and Disillusion as destructors, they were the very constructors of the beauty and pleasure found in this miniature oratorio.
Three parallel universes (before losing count) — the ephemeral Debussy/Maeterlinck masterpiece, the Debussy symphonic tone poem, and the twisted intricacies of a moldy, parochially English country estate.
This, alas, was where I had to sign off. A weekend conference on Parsifal (including, on the Saturday, a showing of Hans-Jürgen Syberberg's Parsifal film) mean that I missed Götterdämmerung, skipping straight to the sequel.
The culmination of Opera North's "Ring for Everyone", this Götterdämmerung showed the power of the condensed movement so necessary in a staged performance - each gesture of each character was perfectly judged - as well as the visceral power of having Wagner's huge orchestra on stage as opposed to the pit.
Michael Grandage's production of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro, which was new in 2012, returned to Glyndebourne on 3 July 2016 revived by Ian Rutherford.
Said and done the audience roared its enjoyment of the performance, reserving even greater enthusiasm to greet stage director Christophe Honoré with applauding boos and whistles that bespoke enormous pleasure, complicity and befuddlement.
'A century after the Somme, who still stands with Britain?' So read a headline in yesterday's Evening Standard on the eve of the centenary of the first day of that battle which, 141 days later, would grind to a halt with 1,200,000 British, French, German and Allied soldiers dead or injured.
A traditional production of Mozart and Schikaneder's singspiel Die Zauberflöte can go for charm, fantasy, and enjoyable camp. It can also turn trite and cloying.
A strong non-traditional production should stay true to the spirit of the work, essentially a Mason-influenced entertainment, while refreshing the audience with new perspectives. Unfortunately, Martin Kušej's 2007 staging for Zürich, with sets by Rolf Glittenberg, represents the worst excesses of so-called "regietheater" (director's theater). The modern-dress updating and sterile sets (like the lobby of some corporate headquarters) begin to suggest fairly early in the recording that Kušej not only disrespects the work but wants the audience to dislike it as well. Only one character/performer manages to escape the cold and clinical approach of the director to connect to the audience, the irrepressible Papageno, in a star-making turn by Ruben Drole.
Of course, Kušej has pockets-full of ideas to throw around. Tamino and Pamina are a married couple, standing stock still before a white screen during the overture, and then suddenly snatched away and carried off separately as they are about to kiss. Not until the end of the opera does Kušej manage to return to this concept, with a filmed sequence of the couple in a Mercedes, possibly driving off to a honeymoon, when they realize they are submerged in water and have to fight to escape. A statement about the confinement of conventional marriage? Perhaps. But to be welcomed after their rescue by Sarastro, hardly the model for connubial bliss, makes no sense.
In between come various twists on a traditional production. Instead of one goofy looking giant snake chasing Tamino, both he and the chorus writhe on the ground, wrestling with a mass of slimy black reptiles. The gray-paneled walls slide back and forth, creating new spaces that always look the same as the previous one, with more door-slamming than in a bedroom farce. At one point the Queen of the Night enters from inside a refrigerator and leaves the same way. Papageno himself makes his first appearance inside an oversize birdcage. See? Get it? Why, you're almost as clever as Kušej.
A decent cast gives themselves over to the director's concept, but what that means for almost all of them is a repression of personality and individual style, which makes for dull singing. Christoph Strehl has sung many a Tamino in recent years. Heard here, his dry voice matches all too well the aridity of the concept. Julia Kleiter's Pamina doesn't seem to interest Kušej at all, and her scenes are flatly staged. For Monostatos, Kušej decided to go with the original libretto's dictates of blackface, surely to make his own point about the work's proclaimed spirituality. Rudolf Schasching is suitably grotesque in the role. The great Matti Salminen as Sarastro sends Monostatos into exile with a knee to the groin. Sarastro can be, possibly should be, a troubling character, hypocritically condemning "hypocrisy," but the director's underlining is not helpful. Elena Mosuc hits all the notes as the Queen of the Night, but she is never especially scary or intimidating. More imposing is the physique of the Speaker, Gabriel Bermúdez, whom Kušej presents shirtless, at a basin washing his underarms. For some reason your reviewer suspects Kušej spent a lot of time at rehearsal here, along with an extended scene of Tamino and Papageno in their underwear.
So lively and energetic is the Papageno of Ruben Drole that he seems to have popped in from another production. Perhaps all of Kušej's sympathies go to the lower-classes - in one fairly interesting twist, it is a crowd of tired, filthy laborers who appear instead of wild animals in response to the flute. But Drole just seems to be an immensely appealing performer, with a charming manner and a most handsome voice. He is well-matched by the buxom Papagena of Eva Liebau.
In the pit Nikolaus Harnoncourt leads the Zürich Opera forces with his trademark enthusiasms for rhythmic angularity and string playing that decidedly stays away from smoothness or conventional tonal beauty. The result veers from fresh and invigorating to scratchy and irritating.
Deutsche Grammophon includes a 45-minute "Behind the Scenes" bonus feature, which pushes the set to two discs. This feature serves as evidence that Europe has also given itself over to TV hosts of creepy jocularity filmed by manic hand-held camera operators.
In the end, this may well be the Zauberflöte DVD for those who don't really want a Zauberflöte DVD. Talk about precision marketing.

Did you watch Oprah the other day? She did a show called "Diabetes: America's Silent Killer". Dr. Oz and Bob (and a couple of others) talked about how wide-spread (and expensive) diabetes is, how certain ethnicities are more at risk for having diabetes, diabetes' horrible side effects, and a few key things we can all do today to prevent, treat or reverse it. One key piece of advice is to exercise regularly. As a personal trainer, I've worked with lots of clients who had type 2 diabetes and they were able to completely stop the disease in its tracks! So I know exercise works.
Before I get into how it works, we need a (really) simple explanation of what happens in your body if you have diabetes or prediabetes. Check out this website to learn more about diabetes.
If you have type 2 diabetes, there is too much sugar (glucose) floating around in your blood and the hormone (insulin) can't do its job (which is to send the sugar to the rest of the body's cells). This is called insulin resistance. Type 2 diabetes affects the most number of people and can be prevented in most cases.
If you have prediabetes, the sugar floating around in your blood is higher than normal, but it's not as high as someone with full blown diabetes. Regular exercise can help control and even possibly reverse this. Here's a previous Mass in Motion post on how prediabetes can be a "Window of Opportunity."
When you exercise regularly, a few "magical" things happen. Your body gets better at controlling its glucose and at using insulin. This is really important for two reasons: your body needs glucose for energy and it uses insulin to send those glucose cells to the rest of your body (so your body can use that energy). When this happens, you may not need to take as much medicine. Also, along with a healthy diet, regular exercise helps you achieve a healthy weight. This, in turn, improves how your body uses insulin, which means that you may need to take fewer medications. And, exercising regularly lowers your risk of heart disease, which is the #1 killer of people with diabetes. Check out this website to learn about more benefits of being active if you have diabetes.
So, what can you do? Move. More. Often. It will reduce your risk of prediabetes, and if you have diabetes, it can reduce the amount of medicine you have to take. It could even stop the disease from getting worse indefinitely. If you have diabetes or prediabetes, check with your health care provider before beginning a workout program.
So, did you see this episode of Oprah? Does diabetes affect you or your family? We'd love to hear what you think of their suggestions. Are they do-able? If not, why not?

Thousands of embryos, sperm and eggs will be discarded in November as legislated time limits come into force this year on frozen storage.
All sperm, embryos, eggs, ovarian and testicular tissue that have been in frozen storage for more than 10 years on November 21 will need to be discarded or hefty fines imposed on the clinics involved.
The people who had placed items in frozen storage since before November 2004 are currently being contacted by clinics like Fertility Associates about the implications for their storage.
Fertility Associates clinician Dr Richard Fisher said there were still about 300 people out of 1900 of their customers who could not be reached.
He felt it was unethical to discard their frozen storage without at least trying to reach the owners but there would be no option at the deadline.
Christchurch woman Lisa O'Brien was contacted recently and asked for permission to discard her frozen embryo. The embryo had been in storage since 2002.
"I was surprised at how I felt. I didn't think I had any emotional attachment to just some cells that perhaps could become a baby."
She and her partner now have three children, one adopted, one IVF and one a natural birth and O'Brien said she had no intention of using the embryo.
But having to make the decision to discard it was a tough one - which she put off for several weeks.
"You do start to think, oh my gosh, is this just an embryo . . . or could it be a brother or sister?"
Fisher said anyone wanting an extension would need to apply to the Ethics Committee on Assisted Reproductive Technology (ECART) and their application would be considered on a case by case basis.
"There are significant numbers who want to extend storage. There are lots of young men who had sperm stored because they had cancer who may still want it to use later."
Fisher said he didn't imagine there being issues if the frozen storage was to be kept for personal use in the future however that would be for ECART to determine.
The legislation requires all fertility clinics to begin the process of discarding any material older than 10 years after November 22.
The fine for not doing so is $20,000.
Other countries also have storage limitations, the UK limits storage to five years while Australia indicates five years as a guideline but has no formal legislation.
Fisher said the limit was agreed by legislators 10 years ago. It was a social question of whether it was right to have someone using sperm frozen decades earlier to have a baby. Until now there were no time limits on frozen storage.

Wisc. deputy trapped in tunnel for 14 hours
MADISON, Wisc. — A sheriff's deputy wound up stuck for 14 hours in an underground tunnel used to move jail inmates to a courthouse because no one was there to unlock the door.
When Dane County Sheriff's Deputy Dave Hafeman entered the 8-by-8-foot passageway leading to the tunnel Friday afternoon, the guard who controls the heavy metal doors on each side had gone home for the weekend.
''This is an area that, again, is secure, and the doors lock behind you as soon as you enter,'' sheriff's spokeswoman Elise Schaffer said Monday. ''And once you're in, you're really at the mercy of the controller to let you in or out.''
Hafeman, a 14-year member of the sheriff's department, was not discovered until his wife called police because he never returned from work. Detectives found Hafeman's car parked in the county ramp and traced him to the tunnel.
Schaffer wasn't sure why Hafeman, who was unhurt, had entered the tunnel in the first place.

BERLIN Feb 6 The euro is not overvalued at the moment if long-term trends are taken into account, German Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman said on Wednesday, adding that long-term competitiveness could not be achieved via exchange rates.
"If you look at the historic context, the German government is of the view that the euro is not overvalued at the moment," Steffen Seibert told a regular government news conference.
The euro firmed to $1.3535 from around $1.3506 after Seibert's comment.
French President Francois Hollande said on Tuesday that the euro zone should agree on a "medium-term" exchange rate for the euro and act on global markets to protect its interests.

What led to this guy who had his face absolutely demolished by 'Buckeye Police' this morning during Black Friday is unclear. The uploader says cops thought he was shoplifting video games. Whatever the case, middle aged dude turned in the bloodiest Black Friday YouTube video we've ever seen. Wait until you see the pool of blood coming from this guy.
Happy Holidays, bro.
Posted: This morning
Premise of Video: (via the vlogger) "Man put two games under his shirt because his grandson got knocked down and hurt in the rush and he needed his hands to help his grandson. A cop saw and immediately arrested him for shoplifting. The man was cooperating while the cop was putting on the handcuffs. The cop out of no where tripped the man and bashed his head nose first into the ground knocking him out and there is blood everywhere. The cop did not know how to care for the man so someone that was there shopping had to help get blood out the mans airways. This was a K-9 cop already in a bad mood before this happened. "I got the walmart shift"
Climax of Video: That pool when they turn him over is quite impressive.
Conclusion: Kudos to the cops for at least making this arrest video interesting with all the blood. Otherwise this is just another video of a moron going to jail on Black Friday. That garbage doesn't even get posted. Blood = pageviews. Great for the bottomline.

boonebizonline - REALLY? LOL predatory? Last time I checked in USA it's called capitalizing on things, you know Capitalism. Is there such a thing as appropriate and inappropriate capitalism. Only when you are the one that's not raking in the money. As far as publishing an article from a paper's crime blotter, WOW, get a life. Are you angry that he was too cheap to list in your "directory"?
#3 Jul 12, 2010
Boonebiz sounds like a Jesus nut.
#4 Jul 13, 2010
BooneBiz won't survive with that mentality. He sounds retarded.
#5 Jul 14, 2010
BooneBiz is right on target. I am not surprised by this story. Obviously the ones attacking him are either college students or people who prey on them and feel the need to defend themselves.
#6 Jul 15, 2010
I think BooneBiz is just posting a crime story as a way to plug their directory. No real interest in the story other than "I'm glad he isn't in MY directory." Didn't work, I am not visiting the site.
#7 Jul 15, 2010
If you think capitalism is all about money you need to sober up in time for economics class. LOL
#8 Jul 15, 2010
No Jesus in my game, but even if there was I wouldn't condone strangling anyone. Would you ?
#9 Jul 15, 2010
No Bob, it's you that wont survive with your mentality. If you condone strangling people you will end up in one of two places. The first is prison.
#10 Jul 15, 2010
First of all, I didn't post this story, topix.com did. Secondly, if I had, I wouldn't have been so nice about it.
#11 Jul 15, 2010
Well it's nice to know that there are those who are looking at the site. I do not post the news, it is actually posted by topix.com Regardless of its source, I still do not condone getting drunk and strangling anyone. For those of you who have labeled me as retarded, jesus freak and just trying to grab attention; I will tell you this.
Capitalism isn't the issue, the sell of alcohol is not the real focus here, jesus is not the focus here. The focus is that this business owner was intoxicated when he strangled a female employee. If the shit he was drinking has that effect on him, then I can understand why people who are drinking the same brew are so twisted.
#12 Jul 17, 2010
i know how to run a business
#13 Jul 19, 2010
Whoever represented theirself as BooneBizOnline here, know this, you're playing with fire. It is a serious crime to impersonate a business. For future reference, I can speak for myself. Do not falsely represent me.
#14 Jul 21, 2010
BooneBiz, how do you know he was drinking when this happened? Where was that info listed? And, by your comments you appear to be extremely anti business.
"Any person who runs an establishment which serves alcohol to college students is considered by myself to be of a predatory nature anyway."
What a joke of a comment.
#15 Jul 21, 2010
Yeah, boy, you just got it all figured out. You must be part of BooneBiz.
#16 Jul 22, 2010
Strangulation is part of the mating ritual for S&M people
Thats probably why the bail was set low
#17 Jul 22, 2010
Read between the lines! This case was referred to the North Carolina Alcohol Control Commission and on top of that he was charged with one count of sexually explicit conduct. That's how I know he was intoxicated. I can't reveal everything that I am aware of here but I do know what I know. As to this type of business being predatory. In the sense that they only want your money without any concern for your well-being makes them predatory. When I was your age, people tried to tell me also. When you're my age, you'll better understand how alcohol use hindered your efforts. Until then, sit back and pop another cold one. Drink it down 'til you can't get up! 20 years from now you'll understand.
#18 Jul 22, 2010
Conspiracy, Conspiracy ! No, PJMTNGIRL is not an employee of BooneBizOnline.
She is however one of the few college students who will benefit from her education.
#19 Jul 22, 2010
Read between the lines? OK. Nick and his girlfriend were drinking at the Parthenon after hours. Things got a little steamy & kinky...They both got into it pretty good... things begin to get a little "rough"...girl gets angry because things are getting too rough....Nick maybe goes a little too far...Is that too far off base? As for this comment "they only want your money without any concern for your well-being makes them predatory." It's a restaurant man! Concern for your well being? It appears you've got something against restaurants. What about Hardee's for example? Nothing they serve is good for you. They obviously have zero concern for anyone's health or well being, right? Why don't you just come out and say you have a problem with alcohol being sold? That's what it sounds like. Yes, I know what alcohol does to people....I was in college too 20 years ago....
#20 Jul 22, 2010
I have come out and said that I have a problem with alcohol being sold, especially when it leads to violence ( aka strangulation and sexually explicit behavior). Either way, I don't care if they let him retain his license or not. Let's face it, if you want to defend; go to court with him and tell the judge the same lame duck stuff you're telling me. I'm not losing any sleep over this issue, in fact if you'll thoroughly read my comment you'll see where I stated that it's not my place to judge it. Your whole argument comes down to the sell of alcohol to college students and my opinion differs from yours. Why so defensive? Frankly, in the end, my opinion will remain the same. There's no need to keep trying to debate something which is clearly questionable. I do appreciate your feedback but try to open-minded with it. You have been defensive from letter one and that within itself is not good dialogue. As for the late night, after hour rough sex scenario; what part of no do you not understand? If the other party says no, the party's over.
#21 Jul 22, 2010
OK, let's face it. We all have different opinions and very few of us totally agree with one another. Opinions are just that, opinions. They do not necessarily make us right or wrong. Should we always voice our opinions? No, even though we do have that right ( for now anyway ). It is when we become the target of criticism for voicing our opinions that the breakdown of that right has begun. If you disagree with another person's opinion, at least display some sense of self-dignity. Defensive tactics are never a good way to communicate your thoughts and they may reveal more about your own motives than you realize. Our words are a true picture of who we are and what we represent. We will never change the mindset of others by arguing our thoughts but through calm open-minded conversation we can cause others to consider our viewpoints. Even though we may disagree with someone's opinion, we have no right to attack that opinion. Doing so just makes us look bad and does absolutely nothing to further our cause. In short, let's try to be respectful of one another and show others that we have a sense of self-respect.

Drug-induced photosensitivity can manifest as phototoxic reactions with symptoms developing gradually, resembling exaggerated sunburn, accompanied by a prolonged hyperpigmentation lasting for months at the sun-exposed area.[1] To date only a few cases of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI)-induced photosensitivity have been reported. Herein, we report a patient who experienced persistent phototoxic reactions during treatment with three different kinds of SSRI, and suggest that cross-sensitivity among SSRI to photosensitivity might exist.
The 43-year-old man with a diagnosis of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) had started SSRI treatment approximately 3 years previously. After 6–8 months of fluvoxamine (100–150 mg/day), he gradually developed diffuse erythema on the malar cheeks, like acute sunburn reactions but without itching or pain. A slight hyperpigmentation on the sun-exposed areas was also noted. After 1 year of fluvoxamine use, the medication was shifted to escitalopram 20–30 mg/day due to an exacerbation of OCD symptoms. The hyperpigmentation, however, became significantly browner after 3 months. Under the impression of escitalopram-induced worsening of the photopigmentation and persistent phototoxicity, which had been ascertained by a dermatologist, the antidepressant was shifted to fluoxetine 40–60 mg/day. In the following 6 months, there was no remission of the cutaneous lesions. During the entire course, the only adjunctive medication was clonazepam 1 mg/day for sleep. The patient had a very good drug adherence and had neither prior systemic diseases nor cutaneous lesions before SSRI treatment. The rheumatoid arthritis factor, IgE, C3, and C-reactive protein levels were all within normal ranges. The Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale[2] yielded a score of 8, indicating a probable causality between photosensitivity and SSRI.
The outcomes of managing SSRI-associated photosensitivity by changing to another SSRI are mixed in the literature. Some reports have observed an exacerbation of cutaneous lesions and suggested that the reappearance or worsening of photosensitivity reactions following challenge with another type of SSRI are due to cross-sensitivity or cross-reactivity between SSRI, even though the chemical structure of various SSRI differs.[1] In the present case, the similar propensity of fluvoxamine, escitalopram, and fluoxetine to induce phototoxicity also lends support to the theory of cross-sensitivity, although each SSRI might affect the skin to a different extent.
It has been reported that tricyclic antidepressants could be photo-excited to activate tyrosinase, which in turn catalyzes melanin synthesis, leading to enhanced depositions of abnormal drug–melanin complex and reduced melanin clearance rates.[3] More recent studies also noted that serotonin agonist or fluoxetine treatment can induce melanogenesis.[4] These observations collectively might explain the cross-sensitivity of various SSRI with intrinsic activities to increase serotonin. In conclusion, clinicians should be aware of the shared risk or cross-sensitivity among SSRI to induce photosensitivity, and may consider switching to other antidepressants with different pharmacological mechanisms when this occurs.

AUTHORITIES in Bromley are working with young carers in the borough to find out how best to help them out.
Bromley Council has joined up with Bromley Clinical Commissioning Group to see what youngsters with extra responsibility think of local services and discover what they value most.
The council reports there are around 600 young people who look after family members, neighbours or friends because of ill-health or disabilities.
This week an online survey's been put into action aiming to gather views, so authorities know how best to lend a hand to those with an extra duty of care. It's running until Sunday February 23.
Cllr Robert Evans Executive Member for Care Services said: "Young carers do some amazing work by looking after family members and others in the community.
"It is important that we understand their views and make sure they get the advice, guidance and support they need to continue with such an important role."
