What Is a Bounding Pulse?
A bounding pulse is a pulse that feels as though your heart is pounding or racing. Your pulse will probably feel strong and powerful if you have a bounding pulse. Your doctor might refer to your bounding pulse as heart palpitations, which is a term used to describe abnormal fluttering or pounding of the heart.
How Will I Know My Pulse Is Bounding?
With a bounding pulse, you may feel your heart is beating faster than normal. You may also feel your bounding pulse in the arteries of your neck or throat. Sometimes, you can even see the pulse as it moves the skin in a more forceful way.
It may also feel like your heart is beating irregularly or that it has missed a beat. Sometimes, it feels like there is an occasional extra, more forceful heartbeat.
Do I Need to See a Doctor for a Bounding Pulse?
Most incidences of a bounding pulse come and go within a few seconds and are not a cause for concern. However, talk to your doctor as soon as possible if you have a history of heart problems like heart disease and have a bounding pulse.
If you experience any of the following symptoms along with your bounding pulse, get emergency medical care immediately, as these could be signs of a serious problem, like a heart attack:
- dizziness
- confusion
- abnormal sweating
- lightheadedness
- difficulty breathing
- fainting
- tightness, pressure, or pain in your upper body (including neck, jaw, arms, chest, and upper back)
Underlying Causes of a Bounding Pulse
In many cases, the cause for a bounding pulse is never found. On the other hand, when the cause is found, it is usually not severe or life-threatening. However, on occasion, a bounding pulse can point to a serious health problem that requires medical attention.
Most Common Causes of a Bounding Pulse
One of the most common causes for a bounding pulse is being out of shape. Participating in strenuous activity that your body is not used to can cause your heart to beat harder and faster than normal.
A bounding pulse is also a common response to stress and anxiety, so if you are experiencing (for example) extra stress at work or anxiety over a bill, you might feel a bounding pulse. Drinking caffeine and taking stimulants (such as those in asthma medication) can also cause your pulse to speed up.
Less Common Causes of a Bounding Pulse
Less common but more serious conditions could potentially be the cause of your bounding pulse. An overactive thyroid, which causes a condition called hyperthyroidism, may cause your bounding pulse. Your thyroid gland controls your body's metabolism. If your thyroid gland isn't working properly, it could cause your heartbeat to become irregular. An arrhythmia may also be to blame for your bounding pulse. An arrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat. It can include a heartbeat that is too fast, too slow, or generally irregular.
Diagnosing and Treating Your Symptom
Try to keep track of when your bounding pulse occurs and what you are doing when it happens. Also, be knowledgeable of your family's medical history. This information will help your doctor to diagnose any condition that may potentially be causing your symptom.
Your doctor will discuss your medical history to see if you have a personal or family history of heart problems, thyroid disease, or stress and anxiety. Your doctor will also look for a swollen thyroid gland, which is a sign of hyperthyroidism. He or she may also perform tests such as a chest X-Ray or an electrocardiogram to rule out an arrhythmia. An electrocardiogram uses electrical pulses to trigger your heartbeat. This will help your doctor find irregularities in the rhythm of your heart.
Unless your bounding pulse is caused by an underlying condition such as arrhythmia or hyperthyroidism, medical treatment is usually not necessary. However, if being overweight is causing the problem, your doctor may advise you about ways to lose weight and live a healthier, more active lifestyle.
If you are found to be healthy overall, your doctor may simply recommend ways to reduce your exposure to triggers of your abnormal heartbeat, such as stress or too much caffeine.
What Can I Do to Stop My Symptom from Returning?
If your condition is caused by a health condition such as hyperthyroidism or an arrhythmia, be sure to follow the health regimen your doctor recommends. This includes taking any medications that he or she has prescribed.
If you are overweight and experiencing bounding pulse, try to find healthy ways to lose weight and get in shape. The Mayo Clinic suggests some fun, easy ways to work fitness into your schedule, such as (Mayo, 2010):
- taking your dog or the neighbor's dog for a walk
- using television time to be active (lift weights, walk on the treadmill, ride your exercise bike)
- doing chores with gusto (mopping the floor, scrubbing the bathtub, mowing the lawn with a push mower, raking leaves, and digging the garden are especially good calorie-burning activities)
- making fitness your family time (ride bikes together, play some catch, walk or run together)
- starting a lunchtime walking group at work
If stress and anxiety seem to be the culprit, take steps to reduce them by doing things like:
- laughing more (watch a comedy; read a funny book or the comics)
- connecting with friends and family (make plans to meet for dinner or coffee)
- getting outside and being active (take a walk, ride your bike)
- meditating (quieting your mind)
- getting more sleep
- keeping a journal
Once your doctor has determined that you don't have any serious underlying causes for your heart palpitations, try not to worry about them too much. Worrying about your irregular heartbeat only adds additional stress to your life.
Limiting your alcohol and caffeine consumption can also help to keep your pulse from bounding. Some herbs (such as those used in energy drinks), medications, and even tobacco smoke can act as stimulants and should be avoided. Talk to your doctor about stimulant medications you may be on (like those used for asthma) and what your options may be for using an alternative. Do your best to avoid any potential triggers of your bounding pulse.

Thanks to Szabolcs' comment to this question, I have found a way to
Export Cyrillic symbols from Mathematica to PDF correctly. We just need to set a system-wide variable commonly called the system local (or language for non-Unicode applications) to US English as described here:
Open Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.
On the Advanced tab, under Language for non-Unicode programs, select English (US).
This approach has few usability limitations:
- Only an administrator has the ability of setting the system locale value.
- Setting the system locale requires a system reboot.
- Only one system locale can be set at a time.
Unfortunately, this setting affects not only Mathematica, but every non-Unicode program that is used on the computer including some components of Windows itself. As the result, these programs work incorrectly and in some cases changing this option can even cause a BSOD. For example, the command-line interpreter cmd.exe on localized version of Windows after setting system local to English looks as follows:
For Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Microsoft developed the Microsoft AppLocale Utility which is intended to allow to run non-unicode applications without changing the system locale (thanks Windows programmer for the reference). But I failed to get it working for Mathematica.
Is it possible to set system locale individually for Mathematica in order to get correct Cyrillic
Export to PDF?
There is the PDF.exe
MathLink executable in the .\SystemFiles\Converters\Binaries\Windows directory. Probably we should set the system locale US English precisely for this executable?
P.S. I use localized Windows XP SP3.

A prominent candidate in Armenia's presidential election who was wounded in a gun attack last week has asked authorities to delay the poll, his aide said on Sunday.
"We have just lodged a request with the Armenian Constitutional Court to delay presidential elections by two weeks," Paruyr Hayrikyan's aide told AFP.
"After the attempt on his life Hayrikyan was in hospital and could not participate in the election campaign," Vrezh Zatikyan said.
Armenia's presidential election is set for February 18 but doubts over whether it would take place as scheduled were raised when Hayrikyan was shot in the chest in the capital Yerevan on January 31.
Armenia's security service says it has arrested two men over the attack on the 63-year-old veteran politician and Soviet-era dissident.
Hayrikyan, head of the Union For National Self-Determination, initially said he would not seek a delay.
He later reconsidered, saying Armenian law allows polls to be postponed by two weeks if a candidate is deemed to have suffered an insurmountable obstacle.
Although a respected figure, Hayrikyan is not seen as a serious challenger to President Serzh Sarkisian who is tipped to win the eight-way race.

Wie is Peri Peri Reizen?
Peri Peri Reizen is opgericht door Nelleke Priem en Kees Quist. Nelleke kwam voor het eerst op het Afrikaanse continent terecht in 2005 toen zij voor 3 maanden een vrijwilligersproject in Durban ging doen. Kees werd met het Afrika-virus besmet in 2007, na een vakantiereis door Zuid-Afrika, Swaziland en Mozambique. Sindsdien zijn we beiden meerdere keren voor langere tijd naar dit prachtige werelddeel terug gegaan.
Onze missie
Met Peri Peri Reizen willen we Afrika toegankelijker maken voor een groter publiek. We merken dat mensen nog steeds een beetje "bang" zijn om naar Afrika te gaan en dat is ongelooflijk jammer, want we geloven dat het contact (mits dat op een duurzame manier gebeurt) tussen de inwoners van het Europese en Afrikaanse continent verrijkend kan zijn voor beide partijen.
Met onze kampeerreizen willen een bijdrage leveren aan het onderlinge contact en bewustwordingsproces. Om onze reizen voor een zo groot mogelijk publiek bereikbaar te maken zijn onze reizen voor zowel de doorgewinterde Afrika-reiziger en de beginneling geschikt en we proberen deze zo betaalbaar mogelijk te houden. Uiteraard ontvangen onze partners in Afrika een eerlijke prijs voor de diensten die zij leveren voor jouw vakantie, dat is een onderdeel van ons streven naar duurzaam ondernemen.

Los Lobos: Elegantly Raucous
Set List
- "Chuco's Cumbia"
- "The Road to Gila Bend"
- "Hold On"
- "Mas y Mas"
Los Lobos' music is hard to classify: Its members play raucous rock 'n' roll, but they often incorporate elegant melodic ballads into the mix. Sometimes they play blues or rockabilly or folk, but each song incorporates at least a touch of their Mexican-American heritage.
The band was formed in 1974, and has remained together with the same core members ever since. All were friends from the same East Los Angeles high school, when they started playing weddings and parties in their neighborhood, in the process developing the makings of their own unique style. Los Lobos has since released more than a dozen albums — and topped the charts in 1987 with its cover of Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba." The group's latest, The Town and the City, is a subtly emotional first-person account of a Mexican immigrant making his way in the U.S. Listen to yesterday's 'Song of the Day.'

Specifically, according to Bloomberg News, "Dingell said a chief source of the slowdown in policymaking is the Supreme Court's 'Citizens United' ruling that removed limits on independent political spending by corporations and union that spawned the Super-PACs that now exert so much influence in campaigns."
From redistricting reform to a five-day work week for Congress, a new report from the Bipartisan Policy Center Commission on Political Reform, chaired by a handful of former Democratic and Republican
House Republicans have declared this "Energy Week" and they are rolling out a series of legislative efforts that include speeding up liquefied natural gas exports, jamming the President and the State Department's ability to delay the Keystone XL pipeline, and blocking the new EPA power plant rule.
The corporate interests that would benefit from these efforts have been spending big money to influence Congress. Here are seven facts about energy industry influence spending in Washington:
Think the lack of a presidential race in the 2014 elections will mean big money won't play a role? Not if Charles and David Koch have anything to do with it.
On Wednesday, Senate Republicans blocked passage of Sen. Elizabeth Warren's Bank on Students Emergency Loan Refinancing Act, a bill that would alleviate heavy debt by fixing interest rates and giving borrowers the ability to refinance both private and public loans.

On Saturday, the Working Families Party voted to provide its November ballot line to Governor Andrew Cuomo following several weeks of negotiations between him, party leaders, labor leaders, and prominent elected officials. Zephyr Teachout, who announced her candidacy just on Friday, contested the party's endorsement. Zephyr – a former board member of PCAF and a friend – mounted an aggressive challenge to Cuomo with the WFP delegates at the convention and lost a floor vote 59-41%, while winning the hearts and minds by 99-1%.
Three in four voters believe "wealthy Americans have a better chance than others of influencing the election process," according to polling released this week by CBS News. In addition, 76 percent believe outside group spending should be limited, and 71 percent want to maintain contribution limites to candidates. The former has been ruled unconstitutional in Citizens United v. FEC. The latter is likely to be challenged by conservative lawyers in the future.

Description: Richard Dembo's third directorial effort, La Maison De Nina, concerns a group of Jewish children living in an orphanage in Paris at the end of WWII. Soon there is an influx of children at the orphanage whose parents did not survive the concentration camps. Eventually those newcomers and the orphans who already lived there are feuding over the importance of their Jewish heritage. The children must deal with their grief in a variety of ways including religion, music, and one poor child by deciding to not talk. Dembo, an Oscar winner in 1984, passed away while the film was in post-production.~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

In previous posts I wrote about the power and possibilities with "Run .Net Script" Activities to execute your own Scripts in Orchestrator Runbooks. When running "Run .Net Script" Activities reference to the .NET libraries takes additional time to initialize. This delay can be as much as 30 seconds.
This delay can occur if a Runbook is executed on a system without Internet access, because Windows cannot verify the Microsoft Authenticode signature for the .NET libraries. This causes a delay during the initialization of the activity.
This article on Technet describes how you can modify the file PolicyModule.exe.config on the Runbook Server(s) to avoid this delay: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh674231.aspx .
With this modification the "Run .Net Script" Activity finishes at least 30 seconds faster.

**Kirkus Best Books of the Year (2013)**
**Kansas City Star Best Books of the Year (2013)**
A passionate student of Japanese poetry, theater, and art for much of her life, Gretel Ehrlich felt compelled to return to the earthquake-and-tsunami-devastated Tohoku coast to bear witness, listen to survivors, and experience their terror and exhilaration in villages and towns where all shelter and hope seemed lost. In an eloquent narrative that blends strong reportage, poetic observation, and deeply felt reflection, she takes us into the upside-down world of northeastern Japan, where nothing is certain and where the boundaries between living and dying have been erased by water.
The stories of rice farmers, monks, and wanderers; of fishermen who drove their boats up the steep wall of the wave; and of an eighty-four-year-old geisha who survived the tsunami to hand down a song that only she still remembered are both harrowing and inspirational. Facing death, facing life, and coming to terms with impermanence are equally compelling in a landscape of surreal desolation, as the ghostly specter of Fukushima Daiichi, the nuclear power complex, spews radiation into the ocean and air. Facing the Wave is a testament to the buoyancy, spirit, humor, and strong-mindedness of those who must find their way in a suddenly shattered world.
From the Hardcover edition.
Editorial Reviews
(c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
—San Francisco Chronicle
"A masterpiece of narrative reportage that balances Ehrlich's own reaction with the voices of the victims."
—Minneapolis Star-Tribune
"A haunting elegy and story of renewal in a world torn apart by disaster. . . . Ehrlich writes beautifully, with a poet's sensitivity."
—The Daily Beast
"Heartbreaking. . . . [Ehrlich brings] personal perspective to the vivid reporting about people whose lives and world were so utterly changed. . . . Accompanying [her] on these difficult but sometimes joyous journeys is reading that's often hard to bear, but too compelling to set aside."
—The Seattle Times
"Harrowing. . . . A sobering account of the human and environmental toll [of the tsunami]. . . . Readers of her book can witness the devastation through keen eyes. . . . The resilience of survivors is inspiring."
—The Economist
"It's not the numbers, the facts and figures, or the geology, but the stories that matter [in Facing the Wave]. . . . Ehrlich is an observer of the natural world"
—The Oregonian
"A riveting mosaic of reportage and reflection."
"Brave. . . . The language is beautiful and frail. . . . Ehrlich tries to define the scope of the tragedy as a mosaic. Survivors' testimony, scientific measurements, personal journal entries and traditional Japanese poetry are arranged into artful fragments." —Fredericksburg Freelance Star
"Ehrlich's book adds flesh and soul and spirit to the bare bones of news reporting, filling the void left by the media and reminding us that real people live behind the headlines."
—New York Journal of Books
"[Ehrlich's] focus is aftermath, how the survivors of Japan's March 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami continue on past cataclysm. [She] collects their stories, tying them together thoughtfully, even musically, with poetry, science, and her own observations, to achieve a sort of universal empathy that comes from unimaginable circumstance."
—Santa Fe New Mexican
"Ehrlich is a lyrical and sensitive writer who has written about nature and her manifold mysteries. . . . Facing the Wave ends on a high and holy note of hope."
—Spirituality and Practice Magazine
Verdict Readers will certainly not find this type of journey recommended by Conde Nast or Travel & Leisure. The descriptions of the stench of the dead and the grief of the living are alternately numbing and horrifying. Nothing and no one was left unharmed: schoolchildren, elderly pensioners, cats, dogs, horses, cows, fish, crops. A well-written, important book to read—if you can take it. [See Prepub Alert, 8/3/12.]—Lee Arnold, Historical Soc. of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia

The Swimmer
Mizu no michi. The Path of Water. How one swims in it and what it teaches along the way. A wave rises from a seismic rip in the seafloor. It spreads out low and travels at jet speed, mounding up as it hits shore. In Kamaishi, Japan, a forty-year-old fisherman is caught by the first thirty-foot-high tsunami wave to enter the narrow harbor after the 9.0 earthquake that hit northeastern Japan that March 11 day.
Kikuchi-san was driving when his car was almost shaken off the road. Six minutes later, he turned toward his parents' house to rescue them, knowing that a tsunami would come, but his father was going the other way, bicycling toward the harbor.
"Don't go there," Kikuchi-san yelled out, but the elderly man didn't hear. By the time Kikuchi-san caught up with him, his father had climbed the seawall and was clutching a steel ladder, facing the sea.
Kikuchi-san remembers a roar. Water was receding, surging backwards until the ocean floor lay exposed. "We've got to get out of here," Kikuchi-san yelled, but his father didn't move.
The roar intensified. A white line appeared at the horizon. The wave was coming fast. As Kikuchi-san climbed up to get to his father, water came at him. His father shook his head, refusing to budge. One last look, then the young fisherman jumped off the wall. When he turned back, his father was gone. "My father chose to stay, and in that second I accepted it, and thought it would be the same for me too."
Water towered over him. He saw a nine-ton squid boat teetering on the wave's crest, its glass attractor lamps swinging and shattering. The Wave swept him into the river that splits the town of Kamaishi in half. He climbed onto a metal roof, but the water caught him there too, sucking him backwards, pulling him out to sea. The water roiled. It was black with diesel and gas, sewage, dirt, and blood, and Kikuchi-san rolled and thrashed inside its debris-marbled night.
The collapsed wave took the fisherman all over the place. Heavy house beams and pieces of boats slammed into him. He grabbed a breath, went down, and shot up again. Shattered roof tiles skittered by. Water surged and retreated. Another wave drove him deeper, then tossed him sideways and up. He remembers seeing two concrete pillars zoom by as he was pulled under the bridge. His head broke water: he could breathe.
A piece of plastic buoy appeared and he grabbed it. "Retreating water took me back out and another wave carried me in again," he told me. Dead bodies were floating, parts of houses catapulted, cars tumbled, a floating roof banged into a bridge and flipped on its side. The present was splintered. He was lost in a lost world.
"The wave came into the river behind the station. I must have been swept up from the ocean into it, past the petrol station." As the first wave flattened out, the roaring stopped. He remembers silence. Because he could hear, he knew he was alive, not dreaming. "I was stranded in the debris. I couldn't go anywhere. It was so quiet, I heard a dog whimpering somewhere, but couldn't see it. It was so sad." He was brokenhearted, and like the dog, thought he would die.
There was a roar. He looked: a wave was coming back again. Water covered him and he was driven toward one of the bridge pillars. He saw a rope dangling. "I barely got to the pillar before the ocean began dragging me back, so I reached for the rope and grabbed it. My lower half was submerged. Debris was being pulled out, but I kept holding on. As the water drew away, my legs were pulled out in front of me. I was holding tight, floating on my back with my head up. At first I wasn't worried about losing my grip, but then, my hands got very cold."
Water came in false tidal sequences. Between waves, he remembers another period of stillness. "The sea was a lagoon. A log floated past. I climbed onto it." Sitting astride the dead tree he could see the extent of the destruction for the first time. The entire port had been demolished. Fishing boats had been hurled onto the tops of buildings. He lost his boat. Almost every house was gone, including his own. A beam floated by: he was swimming in the remnants of his past.
As the water retreated, he lay on top of the log and paddled toward land. With mud and debris under his feet, he stood, and realized the wave had taken his pants: he was naked. "There was nothing I could do," he said. He saw people standing on a huge mountain of coal and climbed up to join them. A woman yelled, "There's another wave coming." He thought he would die this time, but the water never reached them. He remembers standing there, shivering, for a long time.
Finally he saw that the Kamaishi Port office building was still standing. "The third floor looked okay, so I went that way. I took off my jacket and tied it around my waist. I saw another sweater sticking out of the window of a wrecked car, so I tied it around my backside."
Kikuchi-san swam and stumbled through rubble. He doesn't remember how long it took. In a town of more than 39,000 people, 935 had already died. He crawled into the third-story window. There were 40 people inside. They tried to warm him. He was hypothermic and bleeding; they administered first aid and pulled a pair of gloves over his feet.
A woman he knew came to his side. They didn't speak. Together they watched the sky grow dark. With no city lights on they saw bright stars. Someone lit candles. Desks were pushed together so he could lie on them. The night seemed peaceful; the tsunami, a dream. But the continuous aftershocks jolted him into an understanding of what had happened, and he wondered if his family was alive. When he woke, it was morning.
Up on the roof he looked out on a flattened city. He knew he had to join the throngs wandering through the debris. It was hard to move but he found a stick to use as a cane. Back across the rough plain of wreckage, he climbed up to the bridge. His wife passed him and their eyes met, but she only nodded. When she spoke it was to tell him that their sixteen-year-old daughter was still missing.
They set off to look for her. A few hours later, a fisherman stopped them, and said he'd seen the girl, that she was working with the city firemen who were giving first aid to tsunami victims. For the first time since the disaster, Kikuchi-san cried.
Later, he found his mother at an evacuation center. He kneeled in front of her and quietly told her that her husband had been washed off the seawall. She shook her head and said nothing.
In the next two days, Kikuchi-san went to find his father's body. Fierce aftershocks continued. He dragged his aching body across the ruins of the town. His house was gone; he had seen only a few other fishermen. Many had taken their boats out to sea. He didn't know who was dead and who was alive.
A temporary morgue had been set up in a school gym for unidentified bodies. Kikuchi-san found body #59, and a written description of his father. He unzipped the body bag. His father's watch was still ticking but the man's lungs had filled with seawater, and his heart had stopped. He was sixty-nine years old.
"He spent his whole life on the water," Kikuchi-san said. "And even though it took him, I love the sea; it's all I have."
What People are saying about this

"Gifted, adventurous, and extolled nature writer Ehrlich has abiding connections to Japan, so she returned there soon after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami…Ehrlich's invaluable chronicle subtly raises questions about coastal disasters, global warming, and nuclear power as the beauty and precision of her prose and her profound and knowledgeable insights into nature's might and matters spiritual and cultural evoke a deep state of awe and sympathy."—Donna Seaman, Booklist
"A riveting mosaic of reportage and reflection." –Elle Magazine
"Ms. Ehrlich's book adds flesh and soul and spirit to the bare bones of news reporting, filling the void left by the media and reminding us that real people live behind the headlines." –New York Journal of Books

A special book with words carefully chosen, simple and beautifully told, of the most abject tragedy imaginable. Somehow hope shines through. Remarkable.
I bought this book as a gift for a friend. I have not read it and am awaiting my friend's response. What I do want to say, however, is that the book was absolutely pristine and brank new. A great gift.

COLLEGE STATION -- Texas A&M head soccer coach G. Guerrieri announced the signing of 12 soccer players today in what he says is the largest class he's ever signed.
"This is one of the biggest and deepest signing classes that we've ever brought to Texas A&M soccer. Even though we will return the majority of our starters from our 2007 Big 12 Champion team, we still needed to bring in a class that could inject immediate starters and role players to replace our great class of eight graduating seniors. This signing class will do just that – it brings in players with National Team and Regional ODP team experiences as well as big time USYSA success in their careers.
"Our recruiting continues to target exceptional players who bring special skills to the team. All of these players are great individual players who chose A&M for different reasons. But one thing they all had in common was their desire to be great teammates, understanding that as Aggies they can achieve even greater goals because of our "team first" philosophy.
"This class includes some amazing athletes with great technical and tactical talents. Each of them comes from a great youth system with great coaching and player development programs. All of them have been the best player on their youth teams for their entire career and each of them possess special and unique game breaking abilities. Any of them would be the one shining star in just about any recruiting class in our conference and across the nation, but that's just part of why we feel so fortunate to have them at Texas A&M - I love bringing them here because they are all winners and are accustomed to pushing themselves to be the very best they can be, on the soccer field, in the classroom, and in their communities.
"Our goal with Texas A&M soccer continues to be focused on winning the National Championship and to build our student-soccer players into champions for life."

Approaches to Estimating the Health State Dependence of the Utility Function

IZA Discussion Paper No. 3925
If the marginal utility of consumption depends on health status, this will affect the economic analysis of a number of central problems in public finance, including the optimal structure of health insurance and optimal life cycle savings. In this paper, we describe the promises and challenges of various approaches to estimating the effect of health on the marginal utility of consumption. Our basic conclusion is that while none of these approaches is a panacea, many offer the potential to shed important insights on the nature of health state dependence.

There can be nothing good ahead for a country that determines to be mean. This Christmas, we should think more about our presence than our presents.
The riches that come from belonging to each other far outstrip anything that can be wrapped in paper.
I hope you get lots of presence this year. I know you will if you open your eyes and look at those around you as if for the first time.

How SaaS is Changing the Landscape for the CFO
CFO's are taking a closer look at SaaS because of its higher return on investment, greater efficiencies and optimization of IT resources.
The SaaS business model is also beginning to change the landscape for financial professionals. CFO's are taking a closer look at SaaS because of its higher return on investment, greater efficiencies and optimization of IT resources. Software vendors for financial applications such as Oracle are responding to this demand by offering an increasing number of SaaS solutions.
The growth of SaaS comes at the same time many finance departments are shifting their focus from transaction processing to analytics and business leadership. That shift is driven by the need for better information, faster decision making, and a deeper understanding of costs across the company.
By delivering application functionality as a web-based service, SaaS is also bridging the gap between finance and IT, enabling CFO's to access the functionality required to meet their goals while keeping in line with corporate IT strategy.
The economic benefit of the SaaS model is the most compelling reason CFO's are shifting from on-premise to cloud computing. SaaS vendors typically charge monthly subscription fees instead of a large upfront perpetual license fee and ongoing maintenance charges. This allows SaaS providers to deliver the benefits of traditional on-premise financial software without the cost and complexity.
1) Lower TCO: SaaS eliminates the need for companies to buy, deploy and maintain IT infrastructure and processes. Infrastructure and management fees associated with the SaaS model are built into subscription fees. In the on-premise model, IT infrastructure costs account for a large percentage of the total cost and represent the biggest difference between the TCO of SaaS and on-premise models. The SaaS model also allows companies to focus technology budgets on competitive advantage rather than infrastructure.
2) Rapid innovation: SaaS solutions are function or business process specific, ensuring that the software used by finance departments contains market-leading finance functionality, not just features that are add-ons to a general ledger. Many vendors offer upgrades on a quarterly or bi-annual basis, allowing them to be more responsive to customer and market demands. In most cases, the upgrades are part of a base subscription.
3) Flexible pricing: Most SaaS providers use a pay-as-you-go, subscription-
4) Rapid deployment: The typical enterprise software installation involves lengthy rollouts of 18 to 24-months, cost millions of dollars in hardware and require hours of IT resources to deploy and maintain onsite. With no costly software or hardware to deploy or maintain, SaaS minimizes demands and impact on IT, allowing finance directors to make technology decisions that support the business.
5) Cost Containment:

Police used pepper spray on crowds of Chaney High School students to break up two fights at 8 a.m. and 8:35 a.m. Tuesday.
"I imagine the officers used [pepper spray] as a last resort," said school board President Anthony Catale, who wasn't aware of the fights until told by The Vindicator Wednesday. "The bottom line is we're trying to change a culture throughout the school district. We've built momentum. Granted, there are incidents like this that we have to deal with."
Superintendent Wendy Webb couldn't be reached by The Vindicator late Wednesday to comment.
Two students involved in the first incident needed medical assistance after Patrolman Michael Walker, who was working security at the school, used pepper spray when the two refused to stop fighting, according to a police report.
The 8 a.m. fight took place in the school cafeteria between two 15-year-old boys, one who lives on North Evanston Avenue and the other who lives on West Boston Avenue, the report states.
Walker, working at the school, on South Hazelwood Avenue, ordered the two boys to stop fighting several times and announced he'd use pepper spray if they continued, the report continues. After they refused to stop, the officer used a "short burst" of pepper spray.
Police charged the two with disorderly conduct and released them.
Walker also used the spray to "disperse a very large crowd of juveniles" who were at the fight scene, his police report states. No injuries were reported.
Then at 8:35, Patrolman Malik Mostella, also working security at Chaney, responded to another fight in the school's center hallway by the old gymnasium.
The officer saw a 17-year-old Volney Road student hit a 14-year-old Ravenwood Avenue boy in the face, according to a second police report.
When that happened, "several students jumped in, trying to help both sides," Mostella wrote in his report.
"Not being able to break up the fight physically or with verbal commands," Mostella used a two-second "burst" of pepper spray into the crowd, which stopped the fight, the report states. The report contains no mention of injuries from the use of the spray.
The 17-year-old ran away but was caught and charged with assault. He was going to be released after being issued a summons, but the report states he was taken into custody for trying to start another fight with another student. He was turned over to a Mahoning County juvenile police officer, but the report doesn't state if he was taken to the juvenile justice center.
These students, and I use that word loosely, lack any form of family moral values. They deserved their pepper spray since they failed to listen to the officer on the scene. They should suspend everyone involved in the fights and send them all to the juvy center to spend that suspension time.
Watch the student was probably AA and the officer will soon be called Racist for using the pepper spray on him, and the officer be suspended while they investigate the incident.
This definitely is not the Cheney that I remember when I was growing up 40 years ago.
I would be willing to bet that all the students involved know how to spell Chaney!
What do you expect Wendy Webb to do? She is on her way out the door holding on to her cadillac retirement package. These kids have no moral upbringing and show no respect to their elders. That is the fault of their parents, who also have no morals.
censoredship, I went to Warren G. Harding High back in the '70s and there were always two police officers there, a man and a woman. This is nothing new. At Harding they even padlocked the doors after 10:00 so no one could get in after that time. You had to have a teacher let you out if you had to leave for some reason. Usually the teacher in the room closest to the door had the key. I remember at least one fight a day, many days there were more. It was just business as usual.
There will always be fights at schools. Be thankful weapons were not involved in this incident.
"Police used pepper spray on crowds of Chaney High School students to break up two fights at 8 a.m. and 8:35 a.m. Tuesday. "
Academia is going down the toilet at Chaney !
Police have been in Youngstown City Schools since at least 2002. That is as early as I can recall for certain but I would bet they were there much longer.
The spraying ,the fights and the riots are nothing new for the last 10 years. Chaney went downhill when Wilson closed.
The environment was so tense 7 years ago at one of the high schools that a teacher ,a Vietnam vet who saw combat made a comparison between teaching there and combat as to stress level. I won't tell you the outcome because you wouldn't believe it.
As to shortages of police because they are in the schools-that is where much of the criminal element will be.
As usual all were released. Probably to be back in school the next day to learn nothing but cause trouble and keep others from learning. They want to have a special school for troubled youth, which Youngstown can't afford. How about lock up for these trouble makers, there would be so few students in school we could send the teachers to lock up to teach these adorable troubled youth. GET REAL
Police in area schools are not new. I graduated Austintown Fitch in the early 80's and we always had police at the school. Mostly the officer was an auxillary. I can recall a patrol car sitting on school grounds during school hours just about always - and we really can't say we had serious problems. Just the normal stuff - fights (rarely with weapons) the normal drugs (pot, some cocain, acid) these type of things your going to find in all schools. Then, now and in the future. I'm not saying it should be tolerated just it is what it is. Reality.
Whats said i stopped in to goodwill the other day on Belmont and even they have to have security in the store how sad our society has become.
roflmao,.... just shut both high schools down ...what a joke this district has become
BFD-a couple of fights.When I went to HS kids in my school got arrested for using numchucks ( sp?), chinese stars, and knives and stuff. This stuff happens in schools all of the time.
lovedrama I went to high school in the 1980s and we had our share of fights too but this is a totally different ball game. For one there are many more fights I mean as in every other day and sometimes multiple fights at that. The girls fight too and it is often gang fighting. As in dozens of kids rushing downstairs before school starts. We never had anything close to what is going on here it is another world. As for Chinese stars ect these kids sometimes have guns.Ah the good old days huh? I can't remember girls at our school beating each other in the head with locks can you? You don't understand it unless you have witnessed it. These kids have attacked principles and tell the cops to f off on occasion when they are being cuffed-different ball game.

Should I Have a Hysterectomy?
"If I just got a hysterectomy …"
Maybe that's what you're thinking would stop you from having such heavy, painful periods. You've tried medications, but they haven't taken care of the problem. Is having your uterus surgically removed the answer?

The surgery can completely relieve many painful pelvic conditions, but it's not the answer for everyone. If you're thinking of having a hysterectomy, consider some important issues first.
When a Hysterectomy Can Help
Before you decide to remove your uterus, you need to be sure it's the cause of your pelvic problems. A lot of different conditions can affect that organ and cause pain, bleeding, and other symptoms. In these cases,"a hysterectomy can provide a long-term solution," says Sondra Summers, MD. She's a gynecologist at Loyola University Health Systems in Chicago.
The surgery might help if you have:
Fibroids . These tumors that grow in or around the uterus aren't cancer, but they can cause heavy or painful periods, the need to pee often, constipation, and pain during sex.
Adenomyosis . The tissue that normally lines your uterus grows into its muscular wall, making your periods agonizing.
Endometriosis . The tissue lining your uterus grows on the outside of it instead, which can cause severe period pain, ongoing back aches, uncomfortable sex, and bleeding between periods.
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). This bacterial infection can permanently damage your uterus and fallopian tubes. It can leave you in pain all the time.
Scar tissue that forms after a C-section or other surgery can cause pain and bleeding.
A prolapsed uterus. When the tissues that support your uterus are weakened (often because of childbirth), it can drop down into your vagina and cause back aches, loss of bladder control, and painful sex.
Bleeding in your vagina(not part of your period) that doesn't stop after other treatments.
Cancer of the cervix, ovaries, or uterus. If you have any of these types of cancer, your doctor will almost certainly call for a hysterectomy.

Made these for a fund raising meeting, they all loved them. Cookies were lemony and moist. I had some plain, and others with just a hint of vanilla frosting.
SIMPLY AWESOME!! I was looking for something a little different, had everything the recipe needed & whipped these up. I never used cool whip in my baking so I was a little skeptical...These cookies are delectable; with a really nice texture, soft, with just the right amount of lemon..they're also very pretty. I'll be making these regularly. Thanks
the girl at work added 3 tablespoons oil to this recipe they were very good . she also called them lemon cracle cookies
These cookies turn out like a lemon version of chocolate crinkles- tasty and lemony. The texture is more chewy than cakey and the cookies really spread out on the sheet so be sure to leave enough room between the cookies while baking! I also ended up adding 6 oz. of Cool whip and a little bit of the powdered sugar into the mix before rolling in remaining sugar- it worked out fine! Also, the dough was really, really sticky (not stiff at all!) but the results were yummy!

Mayor de Blasio Demands the Tabloids Apologize to His Wife, Chirlane McCray
The first lady's quotes about motherhood to New York were caricatured, he says.
This week's New York cover story, by Lisa Miller, is a detailed look at the life of the city's new first lady, Chirlane McCray, touching on the personal, the political, and the intersection of the two. But the New York Post summed it up, as the Post does, on its cover today in five inflammatory words: "I WAS A BAD MOM!" That's not quite what McCray said, and the mayor is not pleased with what he called the "caricature" of her comments.
"I was 40 years old; I had a life," McCray told Miller of the adjustment period that comes with being a parent. "Especially with Chiara — will we feel guilt forever more? Of course, yes. But the truth is, I could not spend every day with her. I didn't want to do that. I looked for all kinds of reason not to do it. I love her. I have thousands of photos of her — every 1-month birthday, 2-month birthday. But I've been working since I was 14, and that part of me is me. It took a long time for me to get into 'I'm taking care of kids,' and what that means."
The quotes about motherhood made the corner of the Daily News cover, too, under the headline "Didn't want to be a mom":
"I think both the Post and the Daily News owe Chirlane — I think they owe all of us — an apology for absolutely misrepresenting what she said and caricaturing a reality that I think so many women face," said Mayor de Blasio today at an unrelated press conference. "It's very troubling to me and I think a lot of people in this town today are troubled by it." (The New York Times called his reaction an "unusual and stern rebuke.")
The @nypost's repulsive distortion of @Chirlane's @nymag interview, shows that they do not even hold motherhood to be sacred— Reverend Al Sharpton (@TheRevAl) May 19, 2014
Largely free of context, the Post wrote that McCray "says she was unable to embrace motherhood and initially neglected Chiara, who last year dropped the bombshell that she was in treatment for abusing booze and pot." The Daily News was gentler: "McCray admits she initially struggled adjusting to her role as mother — and still feels guilt about needing time apart from newborn Chiara."
At least one Daily News City Hall reporter took issue with the assumed equivalence:
Read the two stories and judge for yourself. Not comparable in their treatment, IMO. http://t.co/t6L8e1nGMT, http://t.co/x32VOYVfNk— Erin Durkin (@erinmdurkin) May 19, 2014
But the mayor was mad at both regardless, and not alone, he said: "I think a lot of women are offended. A lot of hard-working women in this city are offended."
"I love my wife very deeply. She is an extraordinary mother. She always has been," said de Blasio. "She very much wanted to have children, which is evident in the New York magazine article if anyone cares to read it and not caricature." You can read the whole thing here.
