Pulling the Strings
The Blairites and the Brownies are at it again. Dan Hodges, a Blair loyalist, has called on Ed Miliband to sack Tom Watson, his favourite rottweiler, because of the close links that Labour's election co-ordinator has with militant trade unions. If Watson was annoyed, he didn't show it. The sound of Bach's Cello Suite No 1 could be heard drifting out of his parliamentary office yesterday morning. His Bach, one hears, is a lot better than his bite.

"Wrong Ferry Equals a Trip to Asia!" Istanbul by caffeine_induced78
Istanbul Travel Guide: 7,978 reviews and 20,864 photos
"Be safe, be safe," was what I heard a lot before visiting Istanbul. I am going to start saying that to all my friends when they walk out the door. I have never felt more safe in a city than I did in Istanbul. The people are very friendly, the history is rich, and the city so clean that I thought Denver looked dirty when I got back home.
Ivan and Feyza were excellent hosts, they have my complete gratitude. Attaturk was everywhere - although the face not as plentiful as the faces of politicians plastering the streets. The ferry up the Golden Horn went bounce, bounce, bounce from the southern shore ports-'o-call to the northern shore ports-'o-call. Rising over the city to complete a surreal experience was the Muslim call for prayer playing over five or six loudspeakers.
I find myself back in Denver. I must find pigeons here, pigeons do in Denver what pigeons do in Istanbul. Home upon return suddenly feels boring.
- Pros:Great nightlife. Can any city in the US be this young?
- Cons:too many jellyfish in the Bosporus
- In a nutshell:a bridge between continents, cultures, and a crossroads of history.

"irregardless" is not a word.
Have I been to Istanbul? I don't think so -your pages have made me realise how I missed out on the real city,; instead we were dragged round the tourist sites...
love the story about the Turkish woman.
Beautiful tips and amazing pictures. Have always wanted to visit Istanbul and see the Blue Mosque. Thanks for bringing the experience one step closer. ~Eve n Ash
Happy B.day to you! Have a great day :) regards from Turkey
What a beautiful experience you have shared! Thank you for the sharing! Acegal
This is excellent reflection of Istanbul and I enjoyed reading about your experiences there. Istanbul is an incredible destination.
I loved Istanbul alot. I wonder why your friends thought that it would be unsafe. I never felt threatened there.
Hi!the Maiden's Tower....where i was watching last year....missed a lot!:(
Hey Mittens, that's a very prosaic name you have. I like it. For the connaiseurs of porn, you are.

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
mod_proxy - See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/proxy-howto.html
mod_jk can also be used (see http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/apache.html), but I believe that most folks are just using mod_proxy now.

I tried asking on the London forum, but apparently no one there flies from Stansted...
I will be flying on a Ryanair flight from Stansted to Limoges on Fri Sept 19 at 11:40AM. I'm staying at the airport the night before, so getting there isn't a problem. I'm just wondering what time I should start the check in process (although I will already have checked in online, technically speaking).
I've read some posts saying that the security wait is very long, so I would plan to be there 3 hours early except that I will be checking a bag and according to the Ryanair website the bag drop desk only opens 2 hours before the flight. I've read that there are monitors telling you which desk to go to, so I assume that means I won't know which desk to go to until 2 hours before the flight so couldn't be there any earlier?
I know I also have to have my boarding pass stamped at the documents check desk (US passport), but I can't find anything that says when that opens. Is that flight specific, or is there only one? Can I do that before bag drop?
Thanks for any advice.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 276 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cathy2015 Awesome Hotel!!!! Staff is amazing.... everyone from Night Audit to housekeeping to the restaurant staff. Very impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel. September 14, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jessie227 Hotel was okay We asked for a early reservation when we reserved a room as we had a wedding to attend. Well that didn't work and we were late for the wedding that we weren't pleased about at all. Room was okay but bathroom floor wasn't cleaned....hair on floor from previous people. Food at restaurant was very good. August 24, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by coop64 Location This hotel is conveniently located downtown Kingston, minutes walk from shops and stores, and restaurants on every block, the location is GREAT, the hotel is mediocre, rooms are comfy, and clean, but outside of patio rooms on 4th floor were covered in cobwebs and dirt, view was not that great and what little patio there was is not inviting, but has potential to being a very hot spot with a little work and update. Hotel is overpriced for what you get, the price is strictly high because of Location. Rooms are average size but decent for clean, and my wife says the lighting was great in bathroom for all her needs! August 23, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Canuck99 Good location but needs some improvements The hotel location is ideal for families visiting Fort Henry and the waterfront. The hotel staff were pleasant. However, I would recommend they review the A/C to reduce the fan noise and improve fresh-air circulation. The room was quite stuffy and the whole family woke up feeling a bit 'stuffed-up' from breathing seemingly stale air. The quality of the food for breakfast was good; however, the kids breakfast portions were more suitable for very young children. We had to order a second kids breakfast for my 8 year old and were charged double. I wish we had of just ordered the regular adult portion for him (it would have been cheaper). August 3, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by Rob5 Dissapointed A/C didn't work. Staff blamed us first, but breaker was off after investigation. Offered a fan which was declined Still didn't work.no follow up. We were told no other rooms avail but checking internet it said there was? Request made to front desk for minifridge. No call back. If you can't accommodate request at least call back. Waited 2hrs for it before asking desk if avail. I'll check was response again. No call back. 1/2 hr before restaurant closed waited ten minutes for any1 to show up, just wanted a drink. Also left restaurant at lunch before ordering- staff unengaged June 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by neil70 excellent services I have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions. I would recommend this hotel most definitely. The food is great especially the turkey club. June 12, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Essie1966 This hotel has great STAFF From the moment we walked in to the moment we walked out we were received with smiles even though there was a nurse's convention, the staff at the reception received everyone with a consistent smile. Emmanuel stands out as well as the girl working with him. The only thing we had a problem with was the parking key did not work at all, however they were conscious of the inconvenience, as it caused us a delay to the wedding. The front desk fixed the issue right away in deducting the parking fees for our inconvenience. I am a big believer if you can fix it now and offer it before you are asked to look at what you can do to fix the inconvenience it signifies a lot that the chain trusts its employees to keep their guests coming back to the same hotel. Thank you to all June 9, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by LOVESPG1 GREAT STAFF AND LOCATION I stay here every 2-3 weeks on business and everyone is wonderful , professional and accommodating. SIZZLE BREAKFAST hot and quick and always a smile ! This is a great choice when in Kingston .. Sarah and Jordan are terrific ambassadors May 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by AnnieBfromYOW So impressed with kindness of staff Would like to especially thank Sarah Wesson, Mgr. & Emmanuel, Front Desk Staff person who were so kind to allow us to postpone our weekend getaway by 2 weeks when we had become ill with bad colds. They were both instrumental in making the change happen & compassionate to our predicament. As well, thank you to the Front Desk Staff person who took my call the night before to confirm the reservation (who was the same person to check us in)--she was very personable & informative; she was also able to change our reservation to include 1 King bed. The room we checked into was on a quiet floor with a fabulous view of the water. We had 2 great meals in the Restaurant (Sat. PM dinner & Sun. AM breakfast)--also served by great staff there! The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was large with unexpected complimentary items, and the bedroom layout was smart. The location of the hotel is so central & accessible to everything in Kingston. Future trips to Kingston will definitely include hotel stays at the Four Points Sheraton! Thanks to all the staff who succeeded in making our hotel stay (and weekend getaway) fantastic & stress-free!!! :) May 9, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by BenFinn Love every bit of it. We had a really great time staying here. Hotel room was clean and comfortable. There was a great view from our room. The King Street Sizzle was great food and good value. This hotel is right in the middle of beautiful Kingston and winter or summer there is so much to do and enjoy. Wish I could have stayed a week. February 19, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by CobraFOG Good price Got exactly what I paid for December 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wayne51 This hotel offers a home away from home. We were very pleased with our accommodations. We especially appreciated the complimentary breakfasts. The location of the hotel allowed us to visit many shops and enjoy the scenic history of Kingston. We will be back. Thank you! December 4, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by QFootball1 Is it fair to criticize a comped room? On checking in, first key didn't work, got 3 replacement keys - none of which worked, got a new room and the key worked. The next day after breakfast went back to the room and the key didn't work. As the old Mayor of Kingston used to say, #notgood. Room was at 60 degrees when I checked in - raised the thermostat to 72, then 74, never could get it warm though the fan was on. At breakfast in Sizzlers, waited for over 10 minutes to get any service - then had to get up from the table and get my own menu and order coffee from the guy behind the bar. To be fair, once I had ordered, the food came pretty quickly and as ordered. Question - why are the hotel guest parking spaces at the bottom ofthe parkade with all the spaces closer to ground level reserved for City of Kingston employees - shouldn't it be the other way around if you are in the hoteling business, not the parking business? Regarding the required field for primary purpose of travel, where do funerals go? There should be a none of the above choice, or other. December 3, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by elaine1 reservation dilema My Son and I stayed the Sheraton in Kingston Waterside during the University Tour day. There was a error in our reservation and we were only booked for the Friday evening. The hotel was at full capacity however Luke and his assistant worked on it allowing us to stay on for Sat. evening. Thank you to both of you. We look forward to our next stay at the Sheraton. December 2, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Marcus Good location The hotel is located in downtown Kingston near the waterfront and about 10 minute walk from Queens University. It is also within walking distance to several excellent restaurants so it is in a very good location. The FourPoints Kingston is a good business hotel- clean,functional with an excellent location but not luxurious so I don't understand why anyone would leave a negative review expecting a luxury experience. The staff are friendly and the amenities are what one would expect for a Four Points. The thermostat doesn't work well and the rooms are not well insulated so the rooms will be a bit cold in the winter. November 28, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by thriks Stay away from this place !!! Stayed for two nights in two rooms and was very disappointed with the whole stay .to start with I booked both rooms with lake view, stayed in the 5th floor with a lake view but most of the view is blocked by a big condo in the middle we could only see the lake from the sides. Asked for a room change and FD said all rooms have the same view. Rooms were little bit noisy from upper floor sounds like we were close to a gym or a pool. My wife had a exam at hotel dieu and wanted a quite room with a nice water view, and my parents came with us to enjoy there week end damn didn't it went wrong Ordered room service for breakfast and they told me 20 mins with in about 5 mins had to call them back to change something's in the order for my parents but said its already made and ready to deliver and can't do anything now (I guess it was my fault ) Worst part –I told FD that I will be checking out at 4PM they said its fine .My wife's exam ended little late and got to the hotel around 3.55PM when we return I went to FD told the give me extra 10 mins to grab our stuff from the room and to freshen up before driving to Toronto and said NO problem ,when I went back the room it was locked and couldn't open it, there was a house keeper next door cleaning asked her and she said that she already cleaned the room and we can't access it anymore. I was like we had our stuff in there where are they? I Then she was like Oh wait a min and brought our stuff from some where When my parent's went in to their room they already push their stuff to a side and were cleaning it.wow we stayed for two days, paid over $1000 and you guys can't give us 10 mins to get our stuff? Horrible, rude, very bad customer service and felt a very unsafe place. How can they be this bad to their guest's This is one of the horrible stays that we have ever stayed never expected this to happen at a Sheraton. I was so angry and ask FD why they had to move our stuff and vacant it he had no answers and apologized. We felt like we got kicked out at the end of the stay saying like your time is up get out now. Do not treat your guest like this!!!!! October 29, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by LR37 Hotel in Disrepair Sorry guys but despite excellent staff there are some serious issues at this hotel. I was there for the Queens IRC program and found my room to be in disrepair with wallpaper pealing off the walls, worn carpet and moldy bathroom tile grout. While the Queens IRC event was executed very well, the powdered egg breakfast was absolutely disappointing. Please, please, use real eggs. While poor hotel coffee is not uncommon, the coffee supplied to our event was so bad that even the guest speakers made mention of it. Very watered down and a disappointment to the students who badly needed an energy jolt. The majority of the food was otherwise not bad. For a hotel that hosts many business and school events you would expect to have a good wifi connection. This was a point of contention among all the students (who are industry professionals). Most of us had to connect back with work in the evening and found this difficult. October 27, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Lynn38 Parking Was expecting a grand hotel as people told us that it's a great and fancy hotel and that we will love it. I found the room average nothing fancy at all, no fridge or even a free breakfast with your stay considering the rates for the room but we did get a free bottle of water. But that's not what I was upset about it was that for a high quality hotel you should provide parking for your guests at no charge. I had no idea that it was extra til I got home and looked at my email receipt. I have been to cheaper hotels that provide the same quality of room and they provide parking for their guests free of charge. Maybe you should rethink this as your guests should get free parking.

Rated 3 out of 5 by natssid Great sleep and service, subpar food and AIR QUALITY I was here for a conference and was impressed with the staff and had a fantastic sleep...the combination of the mattress and pillow quality was key. As an asthmatic, I had to increase my use of puffers unless I had a window open anytime I was in my room. The conference food...especially the breakfast...was not great. October 26, 2014

Rated 2 out of 5 by AliPumpkin1 Dated Rooms, Great Location Disappointing for a Star-wood Preferred Location. In dire need of updating, no fridge in rooms (needed for medication), bathroom lacking, mold in grouting/missing, toilet low for senior, bathroom floor dirty, air/heat fan very noisy (turned off system to sleep), sent both menu items back to kitchen on first night (cold food, empty restaurant?). My husband and I stayed here often in the past, decided to come with my daughter for a long weekend getaway for the Queen's Bader Opening Gala, not how I remember the hotel and would not stay at this location again unless improved.

Rated 4 out of 5 by RTD8450 No More Trivago. And Back to Starwood In previous dealing with SPG, and therefore their hotels, I was left completely dissatisfied. This past weekend, due mostly to my dawdling, and attempts to save money since my "points" hotels were full, I chose Trivago, and then the 4-Points Kingston. The process bounced me off to another, unknown accumulator, who took my money but whose confirmation and reference numbers COULD NOT be referenced via the Starwood website. Several weeks of angst ensued, but we showed up midday the 22nd, were greeted with a smile and all-things-are-in-order by Duty Manager Luke. The room was fine, his attitude both upon check-in and check-out was exemplary. As a SOLE result of him, Trivago will never again be used, and I will forget the previous awful dealings with the chain. Kudos to him. August 25, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Inga An Average Hotel I was expecting more from this hotel in terms of wear and tear and cleanliness (stains in the bathroom and 2 dead bugs/moths on the curtain). I was also not expecting to have housekeeping knock and walk into our room at 9 a.m. when check-out is 12 pm. (I was later told the card must be placed on the door to avoid this, but as most hotels don't require that, I think it should be made known). Front desk staff were friendly and accommodating.

Do You Know About Thalassemia? »
"Thalassemia is a serious condition that can lead to organ damage and even death. Find out more about related health problems treatment, CDC's work, and what you can do to make a difference.
Did you know that thalassemia is an inherited bl"...
The major metabolite of RAVICTI, PAA, is associated with neurotoxicity. Signs and symptoms of PAA neurotoxicity, including somnolence, fatigue, lightheadedness, headache, dysgeusia, hypoacusis, disorientation, impaired memory, and exacerbation of preexisting neuropathy, were observed at plasma PAA concentrations ≥ 500 μg/mL in a study of cancer patients who were administered IV PAA. In this study, adverse events were reversible.
In healthy subjects, after administration of 4 mL and 6 mL RAVICTI 3 times daily for 3 days, a dose-dependent increase in all-grade nervous system adverse reactions was observed, even at exposure levels of PAA < 100 μg/mL.
In clinical trials in UCD patients who had been on sodium phenylbutyrate prior to administration of RAVICTI, peak PAA concentrations after dosing with RAVICTI ranged from 1.6 to 178 μg/mL (mean: 39 μg/mL) in adult patients and from 7 to 480 μg/mL (mean: 90 μg/mL) in pediatric patients. Some UCD patients experienced headache, fatigue, symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, seizures, tremor and/or dizziness. No correlation between PAA levels and neurotoxicity symptoms was identified but PAA levels were generally not measured at the time of neurotoxicity symptoms.
If symptoms of vomiting, nausea, headache, somnolence, confusion, or sleepiness are present in the absence of high ammonia or other intercurrent illnesses, reduce the RAVICTI dosage.
Reduced Phenylbutyrate Absorption In Pancreatic Insufficiency Or Intestinal Malabsorption
Exocrine pancreatic enzymes hydrolyze RAVICTI in the small intestine, separating the active moiety, phenylbutyrate, from glycerol. This process allows phenylbutyrate to be absorbed into the circulation. Low or absent pancreatic enzymes or intestinal disease resulting in fat malabsorption may result in reduced or absent digestion of RAVICTI and/or absorption of phenylbutyrate and reduced control of plasma ammonia. Monitor ammonia levels closely in patients with pancreatic insufficiency or intestinal malabsorption.
Patient Counseling Information
See FDA-approved patient labeling (Medication Guide).
Instruct patients or their caregivers on the following information necessary for patients to use the drug safely and effectively:
Instruct patients that the risks associated with RAVICTI include the following:
Common adverse reactions of RAVICTI include diarrhea, gas, and headache. Adverse reactions of RAVICTI are sometimes the same as symptoms of high blood ammonia. Headache, feeling tired, lightheadedness, and confusion are possible adverse reactions of RAVICTI. If the patient experiences these symptoms, instruct the patient to call their doctor right away. The major metabolite of RAVICTI, PAA, is associated with neurological toxicity manifested by somnolence, fatigue, lightheadedness, headache, dysgeusia, hypoacusis, disorientation, and impaired memory. These symptoms of neurological toxicity may be reversible. Instruct the patient to call their doctor if exhibiting these symptoms. Blood tests may be done to measure the amount of PAA in the blood.
RAVICTI Registry
Patients and their caregivers should be informed that a registry for UCD patients has been established by Horizon Therapeutics in order to better assess long-term outcomes in patients with UCDs, including growth and neurocognitive outcomes and the outcome of pregnancy for women with UCDs who become pregnant. Patients and their caregivers are encouraged to participate in the registry and advised that their participation is voluntary. For more information regarding the registry program, call 1-855-823-2595.
Nonclinical Toxicology
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment Of Fertility
In a 2-year study in Sprague-Dawley rats, glycerol phenylbutyrate caused a statistically significant increase in the incidence of pancreatic acinar cell adenoma, carcinoma, and combined adenoma or carcinoma at a dose of 650 mg/kg/day in males (4.7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA) and 900 mg/kg/day in females (8.4 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA). The incidence of the following tumors was also increased in female rats at a dose of 900 mg/kg/day: thyroid follicular cell adenoma, carcinoma and combined adenoma or carcinoma, adrenal cortical combined adenoma or carcinoma, uterine endometrial stromal polyp, and combined polyp or sarcoma. The dose of 650 mg/kg/day in male rats is 3 times the dose of 7.45 mL/m²/day in pediatric patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA. The dose of 900 mg/kg/day in female rats is 5.5 times the dose of 7.45 mL/m²/day in pediatric patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA. In a 26-week study in transgenic (Tg.rasH2) mice, glycerol phenylbutyrate was not tumorigenic at doses up to 1000 mg/kg/day.
Glycerol phenylbutyrate was not genotoxic in the Ames test, the in vitro chromosomal aberration test in human peripheral blood lymphocytes, or the in vivo rat micronucleus test.
The metabolites PBA, PAA, PAGN, and phenylacetylglycine were not genotoxic in the Ames test or in vitro chromosome aberration test in Chinese hamster ovary cells.
Impairment of Fertility
Glycerol phenylbutyrate had no effect on fertility or reproductive function in male and female rats at oral doses up to 900 mg/kg/day. At doses of 1200 mg/kg/day (approximately 7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA), maternal toxicity was observed and the number of nonviable embryos was increased.
Use In Specific Populations
A voluntary patient registry will include evaluation of pregnancy outcomes in patients with UCDs. For more information regarding the registry program, visit www.ucdregistry.com or call 1-855-823-2595.
Pregnancy Category C
Risk Summary
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. In rabbits given glycerol phenylbutyrate at doses up to 2.7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients (based on combined area under the curve [AUCs] for PBA and PAA) during the period of organogenesis, maternal toxicity, but no effects on embryo-fetal development, was observed. In rats given glycerol phenylbutyrate at 1.9 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients (based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA), no adverse embryo-fetal effects were observed. Maternal toxicity, reduced fetal weights, and variations in skeletal development were observed in rats at doses greater than or equal to 5.7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients (based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA). RAVICTI should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Animal Data
Oral administration of glycerol phenylbutyrate during the period of organogenesis up to 350 mg/kg/day in rabbits produced maternal toxicity, but no effects on embryo-fetal development. The dose of 350 mg/kg/day in rabbits is approximately 2.7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA. In rats, at an oral dose of 300 mg/kg/day of glycerol phenylbutyrate (1.9 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA) during the period of organogenesis, no effects on embryo-fetal development were observed. Doses ≥ 650 mg/kg/day produced maternal toxicity and adverse effects on embryo-fetal development including reduced fetal weights and cervical ribs at the 7th cervical vertebra. The dose of 650 mg/kg/day in rats is approximately 5.7 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA. No developmental abnormalities, effects on growth, or effects on learning and memory were observed in rats through day 92 postpartum following oral administration in pregnant rats with up to 900 mg/kg/day of glycerol phenylbutyrate (8.5 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA) during organogenesis and lactation.
Nursing Mothers
Breastfeeding is not recommended with maternal use of RAVICTI. It is not known whether RAVICTI or its metabolites are present in breast milk. Because many drugs are present in breast milk and because of the potential for tumorigencity of glycerol phenylbutyrate identified in animal studies, as well as the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from RAVICTI , a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into consideration the importance of the drug to the health of the mother [see Use in Specific Populations and Nonclinical Toxicology].
Pediatric Use
Patients Between 2 and < 18 Years of Age
The safety and efficacy of RAVICTI in patients 2 to < 18 years of age were established in 2 open-label, sodium phenylbutyrate to RAVICTI, fixed-sequence, switchover clinical trials [see ADVERSE REACTIONS and Clinical Studies].
Patients ≥ 2 Months and < 2 Years of Age
The safety and efficacy of RAVICTI in patients 2 months to < 2 years of age has not been established. PK and ammonia control were studied in only 4 patients between 2 months and < 2 years of age, providing insufficient data to establish a safe and effective dose in this age range.
Patients < 2 Months of Age
RAVICTI is contraindicated in patients < 2 months of age [see CONTRAINDICATIONS]. Children < 2 months of age may have immature pancreatic exocrine function, which could impair hydrolysis of RAVICTI. Pancreatic lipases may be necessary for intestinal hydrolysis of RAVICTI, allowing release of phenylbutyrate and subsequent formation of PAA, the active moiety. It is not known whether pancreatic and extrapancreatic lipases are sufficient for hydrolysis of RAVICTI. If there is inadequate intestinal hydrolysis of RAVICTI, impaired absorption of phenylbutyrate and hyperammonemia could occur.
Juvenile Animal Study
In a juvenile rat study with daily oral dosing performed on postpartum day 2 through mating and pregnancy after maturation, terminal body weight was dose-dependently reduced by up to 16% in males and 12% in females. Learning, memory, and motor activity endpoints were not affected. However, fertility (number of pregnant rats) was decreased by up to 25% at ≥ 650 mg/kg/day (2.6 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA). Embryo toxicity (increased resorptions) occurred at 650 mg/kg/day (2.6 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA) and litter size was reduced at 900 mg/kg/day (3 times the dose of 6.87 mL/m²/day in adult patients, based on combined AUCs for PBA and PAA).
Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of RAVICTI did not include sufficient numbers of subjects ≥ 65 years of age to determine whether they respond differently than younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
Hepatic Impairment
No studies were conducted in UCD patients with hepatic impairment. Because conversion of PAA to PAGN occurs in the liver, patients with hepatic impairment may have reduced conversion capability and higher plasma PAA and PAA to PAGN ratio. Therefore, dosage for patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment should be started at the lower end of the recommended dosing range and should be kept on the lowest dose necessary to control their ammonia levels [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].
Renal Impairment
The efficacy and safety of RAVICTI in patients with renal impairment are unknown. Monitor ammonia levels closely when starting patients with impaired renal function on RAVICTI.This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

The ABC Technique
Overcoming Pessimistic Thinking
Learn how to think more optimistically when you experience a difficult or stressful situation.
Robyn has worked hard on a report all week. The deadline was tight, and, as she hands it over to her boss for an initial read-through, she swells with pride. She knows her boss is going to commend the quality of her work.
However, as her boss reads it, she develops a small frown. A moment later, she hands the report back to Robyn.
"I think you did a good job," she says. "If you'll just rework section two and add the figures I sent over last night, this will be ready to present to the board."
Robyn heads back to her office, crushed. She worked so hard, and her boss thinks the report is lousy. She adds the new figures with a sinking heart, wondering how long it will be before she's demoted or fired. For the rest of the day, she can't get the image of her boss's frown out of her mind. Her mood is down, she's listless, and her work suffers. She even misses a sale with a key client, because she's not on her game.
Clearly, Robyn is blowing the situation way out of proportion. With her pessimistic outlook, she has assumed the worst, and has turned a small setback into a disaster.
How about you? Are you an optimist? Or would you have reacted in the same way as Robyn?
Optimists have been proven to be happier, healthier, more productive and more successful than pessimists. The good news is that optimism is a skill – you can learn how to be more optimistic. In this article, we'll show you how to use the ABC Technique to develop a more optimistic outlook.
About the Technique
This approach was originally created by psychologist, Dr. Albert Ellis. It was then adapted by Dr. Martin Seligman, a University of Pennsylvania professor and past president of the American Psychological Association. Seligman's adapted version was published in his 1990 book, "Learned Optimism."
ABC stands for:
- Adversity.
- Beliefs.
- Consequences.
In short, we encounter Adversity (or, an Activating Event, as per Ellis's original model). How we think about this creates Beliefs. These beliefs then influence what we do next, so they become Consequences.
Here's an example – you yell at your assistant because she forgot to print a key report before your meeting (Adversity). You then think, "I'm a really lousy boss" (Belief). You then perform poorly during your meeting, because your self confidence has plummeted (Consequences).
The key point occurs between adversity and belief. When you encounter adversity, how you tend to explain it to yourself directly impacts your mindset and your relationships. Seligman calls this your "explanatory style," and he says that it is a habit that influences your entire outlook on life.
There are three dimensions to your explanatory style...

I Just wanted to say that I love your book! I received a copy from Amazon.com a couple weeks ago and have gone through it cover to cover. I am relatively new to the piercing thing (2008 was my first piercing) but it has really been something I've found to be so totally liberating even at this point in my life, I am 58. I love the way you write, it is so thorough in its coverage of every aspect with just enough subtle humor thrown in to keep it light and refreshing to read. I found it very informative with it's coverage of aftercare and also on one of the piercings I am considering. I am also totally thankful for your recommendation for the emu oil. I have been using it on my piercings every day for about a month now and I can't believe the effect it has had.
I live in Southern Calif. and have had Eric 'Sque3ze' Anderson as my piercer at his shop 'Anomaly' in Pasadena. I feel fortunate to have found someone so knowledgeable and professional. In fact I just called and talked to him today about the possibility of getting an amphallang (I'm still in fact a bit hesitant about it and just trying to get a lot of feedback on it). I was impressed to see him mentioned in your book.
Anyway I just wanted to say how much I loved your book and that I find you to be one 'awesome' lady.
Just Get It!
Let me introduce you to the best reference a pierced consumer could have: The Piercing Bible, a book by Elayne Angel.
There's nothing else like it out there, and no one but Angel could have written this book. I know she has worked very hard on it, and I am bursting with pride for her. It's a fantastic book for everyone interested in body piercing, and I do urge everyone to pick up a copy.
In the interest of disclosure, I had a small part in the conceptualization of the project. I knew we needed a book like this, and I'm so excited to finally have it. I'm not going to do a "review," because I can't be unbiased, although I plan at least one more blog post on the book, more content-related. For right now, allow me to introduce Ms. Elayne Angel, piercer, author, a pivotal figure in modern body piercing, and not the least to me, my friend.
I hope things are going superbly down in the Yucatan with your honey. I have to tell you, We miss you!!!! that would be the entire piercing community in the united states. I still wish I had been able to come down to NOLA before you closed and have the honor of having you do my triangle. Thanks to your recommedations, I flew out to Inifinite in Philly and had the esteemed Kevin Jump perform it for me. Its stretched to a 4 gauge and honestly I don't even wear my VCH anymore (although I could and have) because I love my triangle so much! I got the chance to spend the day with Jen and she is just a love! We shared the miseries of the east coast attitude. LOL
Anyways, the reason why I am writing to you is different. Not piercing related persay, but related to you. Back in the day when I was working on piercings and healing I practically absorbed everything you wrote. Including the information about emu oil. I followed every link, I read every article. and thankfully, I did!
This past fall, my son was being a stupid teenager. and to make a fairly long story short, he ended up being burned on all four extremities from a spray paint can exploding. The paint was on fire and it stuck to anywhere he had bare skin. He was burned over 30% of his body. He was lifeflighted to Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh and lodged in the pediatric burn ICU. Thankfully he didn't need skin grafts but it was a long agonizing painful process.
I got this one on MySpace:
HI ive been a fan of yours for years one of my friends visited you back in like 2000 with a chic that was getting something done by you, you sent me a t shirt i thought that was super cool and you are a true inspiration to all in the tattoo and piercing community!!
i just wanted to say you were great at app elayne. i was so stoked to go this year and it was all because of you. i look up to you in so many ways and i just want to say thank you for everything you have done for this industry and what you continue to bring to it. i strive to be like you and have the extensive knowledge you have, as corny as that may sound. hopefully next year ill have the nerve to actually go up to you and say hi. haha. have a great day.
The easiest, safest, most effective piercing care product ever!

I am in the process of switching from Windows to a Linux based system and am currently deciding between distributions...I am currently trying Ubuntu as WUBI. I find that my experience is not very smooth and streamlined for example, crash-reports, bugs, applications taking time to run etc etc (this in spite of the fact that I am very patient and am constantly researching solution to different driver and application issues). Was wondering if this is because I am running through NTFS right now or is it just like this? Looking to switch to Linux because of its opensource nature, interest in software development in college as well as maximizing the potential of my machine. I am running an AMD quadcore-x64 2.2GHz, 6GB RAM and 750 GB HDD on an HP G6 notebook. I would appreciate any honest opinions.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I would just try re-downloading and reinstalling Wubi. If that doesn't work, try upgrading to 12.10.
If neither of the above work, try dual-booting 12.04/12.10 with Windows.
If nothing works, then here is how to safely uninstall: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-safely-uninstall-ubuntu-in-windows-dual-boot-environment/
I know that this says to use a Windows CD, but if you don't have one, then just run boot repair from an Ubuntu live usb/cd (it can repair Windows partitions as well).
If you're really bent on using Linux rather than Windows, you can know for sure that it will work if you buy a machine that has Linux pre-installed. You can buy machines like this from various places, but I highly recommend Zareason and System 76. You might pay a little more for their machines, but from what the reviews say it's worth it, and what they sell is built to last.

Hayate the Combat Butler (GN 12)
Title: Hayate the Combat Butler
Volume: GN 12
Pages: 200
Distributor: Viz Media
Release date: 2009-08-11
Suggested retail price: $9.99
Age rating: 13+
The Izu meteor may not have gifted Nagi with the pneumatic figure of her dreams, but it's left one surprise: a bug-eyed little alien girl looking for her lost spaceship. If Nagi helps she might score a biogenic reward, but will the grateful E.T. increase her bustline by 30 inches... or her distance from Hayate by 30 million miles?
Then, before you know it, it's White Day, when guys in Japan repay girls for all the chocolate the girls gave on Valentine's Day. And Hayate thought the yakuza got cranky about unpaid debts...
Story and art by Kenjiro Hata.

The spray-on condom:
…The prototype, which began testing last year, consists of a hard plastic tube with nozzles that spray liquid latex from all directions, much like the water jets in the tunnel of a car wash. According to Krause, there are numerous advantages to his spray-on condom. "The condom fits 100% perfectly, so the safety is much higher than a standard condom's, and it feels more natural."
But there are some stumbling blocks. The men who tested the spray-on condom had a few hesitations, Krause says. Some were "a little bit afraid to use the tube" and would only try it on their fingers. Others worried that the mechanism, which hisses as it sprays, might ruin the mood.
For those of us who grew up (or still live) with the incessant problem of indoor insects (a problem that does not exist in Seattle), and a problem that was temporarily solved with some poison blasted from an aerosol can, it will be hard to dissociate the spraying of pests from this spraying of the penis—all the more so if the one who is spraying is the one you are about to do it with.

Some Chinese ADRs were among the biggest tech losers today, possibly thanks to ongoing de-listing fears stemming from the SEC's lawsuits against the Chinese arms of the Big-4 accounting firms. SPRD -8.2%. YOKU -6.9%. AMAP -5.7%. On the other hand, some Chinese solar names posted huge gains, likely on hopes JinkoSolar's $1B financing deal with China Development Bank indicates government support for the cash-burning industry remains strong. TSL +9.6%. LDK +12.1%.

I have a problem understanding what the village of Sunrise Beach has against Magruder Quarry and Construction and Charles and Phyllis Turner. First of all, the Sunrise Beach Board of Trustees denies the Magruder company it's request for a CUP (Conditional Use Permit). Magruder asked for this CUP to temporarily put an asphalt plant at their quarry on Rte. 5. This plant was to be used to supply the asphalt for the recapping of Rte. 5 from the Niangua bridge to Versailles.
By their denial of the CUP, the board of trustees now requires the trucks needed to carry this asphalt to travel further distances. This mushrooms into more wear and tear on the roads they have to travel and adds to the traffic congestion. It also requires more fuel thus emitting more contaminants into the atmosphere. This is a lose-lose situation.
Again, in their infinite wisdom, the same board denies Magruder an SUP for adjacent land owned by the Turners. I'm sure the excavation of this land and future retail businesses on this site would create a larger tax base than what is present. It seems that if you are not a "clean" business, the Sunrise Beach Board of Trustees does not care about what your future tax base could be.
It appears to me that the Sunrise Beach board of trustees does not have the best interests of the community and the world as a whole. They seek more pollution and less taxes. That is not someone I'd have faith in.

WASHINGTON -- U.S. Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman announced last week that so-called "downer cattle" -- animals unable to walk on their own at the slaughter plant -- will be barred from being used as food for humans. The order is part of a larger government plan to ensure that meat from those animals cannot be sold until tests show they are free of mad cow disease. Veneman also announced a ban on the use of small intestines from cattle in human food. She said a new regulation would be ...

Does anyone know what is going on with this weeks' fixtures? Is the Portsmouth v Man City game tomorrow, and the Man U v Fulham game on Wednesday going to be included in next weeks lot of games? Or will they treat them as seperate weeks?
All of the games are muddled up in this
On other sites both matches are scored inclusive with last weeks matches however I am not sure for yahoo but it would be usual to include them for last week if I remember from last season. Hope that helps.

Bank account CSV import
For customers of banks that do not have automated bank feeds we now have the ability to import .CSV bank statements into Xero, as well as the standard banking .QIF and .OFX files.
This extends Xero's import support to many more banks, including foreign currency accounts.
Also, you can now sort and hide bank accounts on your dashboard and you'll notice numerous multi-currency enhancements.
Let us know what you think.
9 Comments
I had been really disappointed that I could not use xero as the Co-op bank do not provide any other format than .csv files, and I use a Mac (so don't have excel installed).
Anyway, I've just come back from holiday and have found that I can now upload .csv files – brilliant..!
Hi there Xero,
So I'm both a xero.com user (for business) and a mint.com user (for personal). One feature i've noticed that mint has that xero was lacking was such a broad support for bank statement synchronization (I use Bank of America). It's not a huge problem to have to import manually but being from such a major bank I feel like better support to automate that process would be a great feature to add to xero – ease of use increases sales.
The other major feature that was VERY close to being a deal breaker for our org was no quickbooks import. You guys need to hop on this QUICK if you want to convert more orgs over. Just let me upload my QB file, PLEASE!!!
Just love the import feature.
Especially love the ability to pre-code the CSV with two extra fields – GST and account code – prior to upload. It's a real winner.
As I import PayPal CSV's twice, once for the client payment, and again to pickup PayPal fee charged. For this reason I need to 'massage' the file prior to upload. Would love to see ability for Xero to upload Split transactions.
As I currently massage the file and upload twice – I would really like to enable manual confirmation of field matching prior to EVERY upload.
Additionally, a system restore point prior to upload, or ability to UNDO an upload would be a real winner!
Otherwise, can't imagine another system that could enable upload and reconcile over 1,000 CSV transactions a day!
System restore point is unneccesary. Xero can delete ALL transactions associated with an upload on demand and easily. Alternately, you can view all lines associated with a particular upload, whether they have been reconciled or not.
Xero – I love you!
can we import our QuickBooks file? This would be a deal maker/breaker…
Great feature! Finally 🙂
Great feature! Finally! Thank you

Turkish Yields Rise as China Data Outweighs Basci's Possible Cut
Turkish bond yields climbed as slowing economic growth in China weakened risk appetite for emerging market assets, outweighing a possible interest-rate cut by the Turkish central bank tomorrow.
The yield on two-year benchmark bonds rose two basis points to 5.75 percent at the 5 p.m. close in Istanbul, paring this month's decline to 60 basis points. The lira weakened less than 0.1 percent to 1.7886 per dollar, trimming this month's appreciation to 1.2 percent.
The majority of 13 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect the central bank to reduce the benchmark interest rate and the overnight lending rate by 25 basis points. While a possible cut has already been priced in the bond market, China's weaker-than-anticipated economic growth is weighing on investor sentiment, said Selim Gulkan, a fixed-income trader at Turk Ekonomi Bankasi AS in Istanbul. China's gross domestic product grew 7.7 percent from a year earlier, compared with an 8 percent median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey.
"Risk-taking appetite has lessened and volumes are not strong," Istanbul-based Gulkan said by phone. "It is possible that people are taking profits."
Central Bank Governor Erdem Basci said on April 3 that a "measured rate cut" may be in store depending on Turkey's real effective exchange rate index. The gauge, which measures the lira against an inflation-weighted basket of currencies used by Turkey's trading partners, rose to 119.95 in March from 119.75 in February, the central bank said April 3.
