What caregivers can do: Understand that these episodes are the patient's response to a situation. Look for possible causes and reduce them. Satisfy any physical or emotional needs. Check if patient is in pain or unwell. Check if your response or expectations are contributing to the behavior. Chck if the physical surroundings are unfriendly. Consider tools like validation, distraction, and fiblets to bring the situation under control. Keep yourself and patient safe.

There are many changes in behavior. Some may cause worry.
Almost all dementia patients show some changed behavior. This happens because of many reasons. Patients may react because they do not understand what is happening. They may have unmet needs. They are frustrated because they cannot communicate. They may not be able to handle their emotions. They may act in socially inappropriate ways. Unsuitable surroundings make daily tasks difficult for them. People expect them to do things they cannot do. Caregiver emotions like frustration and anger can also affect patients. (This topic is discussed in detail on another page; see: How dementia impacts behavior).
Caregivers usually know that dementia impacts what patients can do or feel. But they are not ready for so many changed behaviors.
Some of the changed behavior is worrying because it may harm the patient or others. This is called "behavior of concern" or "challenging behavior."
Many caregivers think medicines are needed for worrying behavior. But caregiving techniques can be used to handle many such changes. The Alzheimer Society UK's page on Antipsychotic drugs says 90% of people with dementia experience behavioural and psychological symptoms, such as restlessness and shouting, at some point. These distressing symptoms can often be prevented or managed without medication.
As a caregiver, you need to look at behaviors that can harm the patient or others. You have to try to prevent such behavior.You have to try and stop it before it becomes too difficult to manage (before it reaches "catastrophic" levels).
Steps taken to reduce or stop a specific behavior are a targetted approach. Here you look at a particular behavior of concern. You try to understand what causes it. You then try to prevent it by meeting the patient's needs.
Worrying behavior also reduces if the patient's sense of well-being improves. For example, home adaptations can make it easier for the patient to do tasks. As a result, the patient feels less frustrated and more capable. A suitable daily routine makes the day easier and less stressing for the patient. Better communication makes the patient feels more connected. Interesting and meaningful activities make the patient more content and happier. All these reduce the possibility of worrisome behavior.
This page discusses an general approach to handle any difficult behavior. (This page does not discuss medicine-based approaches. Please contact your doctor for medical advice.) Additional discussions for some specific behaviors are available on another page on the site; see: Special tips for wandering, incontinence, repetitions, sundowning).
Ensure that you are calm and positive

When someone with dementia behaves in an unusual way, you may feel upset. Take a moment to remember:
Dementia patients face real problems: Dementia occurs because the person's brain has been harmed by a disease. The patient faces problems in understanding the environment, doing things, and communicating.
Use challenging behavior to understand the patient's problems:Dementia patients are sometimes not able to explain what they want. They are not even clear about what they want. They are overwhelmed and frustrated. Such problems increase as dementia progresses. Their behavior is their response to the situation. Look at their behavior as information about their needs, and do not get upset by it. You probably do this in other situations. For example, when a baby cries, you see it as a sign of hunger or the need for a diaper change. That is because people accept that this is how the baby communicates.
- The behavior is the result of the patient's cognitive problems, surroundings, activities, and interactions: You may be expecting more than what the patient can do. Your expectations and interactions may affect the patient. Examine the situation honestly and change accordingly.
- You can try to understand the patient: You are in a position to use your knowledge and abilities to understand the behavior. Do not expect the patient to understand things as well as you can, because the patient is already facing problems.
Once you calm down, you can think about the behavior and try to understand why it happened. Think about whether it can be harmful. Consider whether you need to do something to reduce it in the future. An approach for understanding and acting is given below.
The approach to changed behavior
Alzheimer's Association, USA, on its page, Treatments for Behavior, suggests looking for (last checked on April 2014):
- Triggering situations: Events or changes in a person's surroundings that have a role in triggering behavioral symptoms.
- Medical evaluation for contributing factors: A thorough medical evaluation, especially if symptoms appear suddenly.
- Non-drug approaches: Non-drug approaches to managing behavior symptoms promote physical and emotional comfort.
- Using coping tips
- Medications for behavioral symptoms: To be considered if non-drug approaches fail after being applied consistently
Medicines should be considered only under certain situations. Approaches that don't use medicines (non-pharmacological/ non-drug approaches) should be tried first.
A non-drug approach
The broad components in the approach discussed here are:
- Consider: Is the behavior a "behavior of concern"?
- Use ABC analysis to understand patient behavior.
- Prevent the trigger, or modify the patient's response. This reduces possible harm.
- Some tools and tips.
Consider: Is the patient's behavior a behavior of concern?
Changed behavior is a "behavior of concern" only if it can harm the patient or persons around the patient.
Dementia causes a reduction in the abilities of patients. This makes normal activities difficult for them. Naturally, they do some things differently. For example, a patient may wear a nightgown inside-out, or pour tomato ketchup over ice-cream. Family members are often uncomfortable with such behavior. But these type of actions do not harm anyone. If family members tell them to stop, the patient may not understand why and may get angry. Trying to "correct" every odd behavior fills up the day with unnecessary "battles."
When the patient acts oddly, ask yourself: is this behavior harming the patient or anyone else? If so, it is a behavior of concern. If not, ignore it.
Examples of possible harmful behavior are:
- Wandering, restlessness.
- Screaming, abusing, being rude, mocking, talking unacceptably.
- Hitting, slapping, kicking.
- Acting suspicious and accusing people.
- Hoarding items or losing them.
- Disinhibition (taking off clothes, asking people for kisses).
- Sleeplessness and Sundowning
- Hallucinations or delusions.
- Incontinence.
- Poor personal hygiene (not brushing teeth, not bathing properly).
- Eating difficulties.
- Anxiety, clinging.
- Apathy, withdrawal.
- Sexual advances, groping.
- Repetitiveness (physical actions, verbal).
Use ABC analysis to understand patient behavior.
ABC analysis is an approach to understand and address difficult behavior. It looks at three aspects:
- A: Antecedent: The event that happened just before the patient got upset
- B: Behavior: The upsetting behavior (also called challenging behavior) displayed by the patient
- C: Consequence: The events happening as a consequence of the behavior
You may see nothing unusual in a situation or event. But the patient is responding to it in a harmful way. ABC analysis identifies the triggers of the behavior so that you can see what to modify to reduce that behavior.
The idea is to examine the situation from the patient's perspective.
- Personal history and characteristics: Each person has some likes and dislikes, fears and habits, etc. You may get agitated or hurt by some things because of your memories. By looking at the current situation from the patient's viewpoint you may find what caused the behavior. As a family caregiver, you can do this analysis because you know the patient's past.
- The situation as viewed by the person: The patients reaction are affected by their cognitive functions. Something that was okay earlier may cause agitation now because the patient cannot handle it well enough, and cannot hide any agitation as he/ he may have done earlier. It is useful to mentally review the typical symptoms of dementia to spot possible causes of changed behavior.
When examining the situation, look at multiple aspects like the patient's environment, the task being done, the interactions, and communication. Consider, for example, a patient who gets agitated at a family gathering and insists he must go home. Maybe this is because the patient doesn't recognize the people, or cannot follow the conversation, or does not know or remember where the bathroom is.
Check for health problems, like pain or infection. Dementia patients often cannot tell others that they are in pain. Some other health problem may have happened because the patient forgot to take the medicine or skipped a checkup. If a hearing aid doesn't work the patient may get agitated instead of asking for a new aid. Some drugs can cause delusions and hallucinations.
Observation and creative thinking can also help to find possible causes of changed behavior. For example, suppose the patient gets more agitated after passing a mirror in the hall. You may realize that the patient thinks the reflection in the mirror is a stranger.
Some things to consider when looking for possible triggers (this list is not exhaustive):
One or more medical reasons
- Problems with hearing aid or glasses
- Discomfort
- Pain
- Constipation
- Infection
- Fatigue
- Depression
- Dehydration or malnutrition
- Side-effect of medication
- Illness
Feeling emotionally disturbed
- Remembering some very unpleasant incident
- Scared of someone
- Missing some dear one
Dissatisfied/ frustrated because of communication failure
- Unable to tell caregiver their needs
- Unable to explain something
- Unable to understand
- Feels insulted
- Feels frustrated
Overwhelmed by surroundings
- Cluttered with objects the patient cannot recognize or finds frightening
- Does not know where the bathroom is
- Does not know where he/ she is
- Noise
- Unfamiliar people
- Too dark
Doing something frustrating
- Activity is too complex
- Activity is boring or trivial or insulting
- Activity is unfamiliar
- Instructions are overwhelming
- Lacks coordination required for the activity
Responding to caregiver expectations and responses
- Caregivers showing frustration or anger at patient actions
- Caregivers hurrying the patient to work faster
- Caregivers pointing out mistakes or laughing or showing amusement
- Caregivers showing disappointment when patient cannot do something or cannot remember something
- Caregivers withdrawing, crying, shouting, scolding, or acting sarcastic
- Caregivers ignoring the patient
- Caregiver showing anxiety
Prevent the trigger, or modify the patient's response. This reduces possible harm.
Once you know the trigger, you can reduce or remove it. You can also try to reduce the harmful effect of a behavior. Keep checking whether your solution works, and adjust as needed.
Support groups are useful to discuss problems and share ideas. These could be in-person or online groups. You will meet other caregivers in such forums, and get many viewpoints and tips. Shared experiences give ideas of possible reasons for strange behavior, and also possible solutions. Other good sources for ideas are dementia care books and manuals.
Some tools and tips
(This section covers general tools and tips that can be used for any difficult behavior. For discussions and tips on some commonly found difficult behaviors, read: Special tips for wandering, incontinence, repetitions, sundowning)
Agitated patients are difficult to handle because they do not understand what is happening and cannot control their emotions. You need to stay calm when patients show anxiety, anger, aggression, hallucinations, paranoia, etc. Patients can usually sense the caregiver's emotions. If you use calm words but are feeling angry or frustrated, the patient knows your real emotion and responds to it by getting more agitated.
What usually helps:
- Feel calm.
- Listen in a calm, affectionate, and reassuring manner.
- Use verbal and non-verbal ways of reassuring.
- Avoid arguing. Do not insist that the patient is wrong or unreasonable.
- If the patient threatens your physical safety, step back or leave the room.
- If the patient is harming himself/ herself, hold the patient firmly. Use only the minimal strength needed to stop self-harm.
- Try to understand and meet the patient's emotional need.
The response to a patient's agitation must be based on the patient's current state, history, and beliefs. Techniques like reality orientation can work if the patient understands explanations. This is more likely in early stages of dementia. However, delusional patients may not accept any explanation. Explaining or arguing will agitate them more. Caregivers have to calm the patients without telling them they are wrong.
Try to understand the emotion of the patient and then address that.
Supposed a patient wants to meet a sister who died years ago. The patient believes the sister is alive and lives next door. When the caregiver says: "Your sister died ten years ago, don't you remember?" the patient may get angry and call the caregiver a liar. The caregiver needs to come up with a creative solution instead. For example:
- If the caregiver feels the patient is missing the sister, the caregiver can say: "You really miss your sister, don't you? Tell me more about her." This acknowledges the patient's emotional need for his sister. The patient may begin talking about past incidents with the sister instead of demanding the sister's presence. Or maybe the patient just wants to talk to someone affectionate. Emotional validation is a very useful technique. View some related links at page bottom.
- If it seems that the patient wanted his sister because of some task, the caregiver can try to find that out. A possible way could be: "I don't know when she will come. Can I help you with something till then?"
- Sometimes, therapeutic lies or fiblets are used. For example, the caregiver may say, "She's stuck in a traffic jam." Sometimes a simple statement pacifies the patient, and the patient forgets the initial demand. At other times, the patient may be suspicious and point out flaws in what the caregiver is saying. The caregiver may get drawn deeper into explanations and arguments. Many caregivers think of fiblets as lying. But when patients cannot understand the truth or get very distressed by it, fiblets may be kinder than letting patients remain unhappy. Some links on fiblets are at the bottom of the page.
- Distraction may work if the patient's emotional need has been met and the patient is no longer upset.
- Some patients recover faster from their agitation if they hear soothing background music. Aromatherapy works for some patients. Touch and massage can also be considered. The effectiveness of solutions varies across patients.
Once you understand the patient's concern, find creative ways to handle it. For example, if the patient thinks he has lost something, acknowledge how annoying and hurtful that is, and help the patient talk about it. You can even help the patient look for the object though you know it does not exist. The patient, sensing your willingness to help, may be able to talk and feel better. Once the patient is reassured, try distracting the patient.
While various techniques can be used, calming an upset patient is usually difficult. To the extent possible, try and avoid a situation where the patient gets very upset.
Medicines for changed behavior
Doctors often give medicines when family members seem worried by the patient's behavior. Families think medicines are required because they think that when a patient has a disease, medicines are needed to solve any problems. They usually don't ask doctors about non-medical options. They don't ask about side-effects. They may not even ask how long they should continue to use the medicine and when they need to get the next checkup. They may not go back to a doctor again and may continue the medication indefinitely.
Some medicines can reduce dementia symptoms like memory loss. These medicines do not cure the damage in the brain, but they can help the patient by reducing the symptoms. However, most medicines given for behavior are anti-psychotics. Doctors may give anti-psychotics even when they are not needed. These medicines may not help all patients. They can even harm some patients. Anti-psychotics have been developed for mental health problems and are not suitable for persons with dementia. Side-effects are common and can be severe.
Various Alzheimer's Associations and other dementia bodies oppose the over-prescription of anti-psychotics. They say that non-drug care approaches should be tried first. They have guidelines of when to consider medicines. They discuss the side-effects and trade-offs involved. They also say that careful evaluation and regular review is needed if medicines are given. Note that some medicines that help persons with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) can harm patients of Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). Unfortunately, it is common for persons with LBD to be misdiagnosed as having AD.
If your doctor suggests medicines, discuss the pros and cons with the doctor. (you can also see an advanced page on this topic in the resource sections below)
Basically, when facing challenging behavior, non-medicinal approaches should be considered and tried first. Anti-psychotics should be used only if required. They should only be used for the right duration and in the correct dosage, and the family must remain alert about side-effects. Regular review by a doctor is a must.

Author focused on Tuscaloosa civil rights protests
Published: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 at 11:24 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | B.J. Hollars, an author and University of Alabama graduate, spoke on Wednesday night at the Amelia Gayle Gorgas Library about his latest book, "Opening the Doors: The Desegregation of the University of Alabama and the Fight for Civil Rights in Tuscaloosa,"
Hollars said the idea for the book came to him in 2011 when he taught an African American literature class at UA.
He and his students didn't know much about civil rights protests in Tuscaloosa.
"I was always curious why we were always talking about Selma and Montgomery and Birmingham, but we're never talking about Tuscaloosa, which has an incredible story in its own right," Hollars said.
Hollars's research showed that many lesser-known people were connected with the stories of Autherine Lucy, who enrolled at Alabama in 1956, and Vivian Malone and James Hood, who crossed the race barrier in 1963.
His research was a collection of books, letters and documents from the civil rights era. To get these documents, Hollars spent a lot of time in UA's W.S. Hoole Special Collections Library.
"To me and a lot of the other archivists (at Hoole), B.J. is a rock star," said Jessica Lacher-Feldman, a librarian at Hoole. "He took the materials I work with every day and turned it into a book."
Hollars said racial conditions on campus have improved in recent years.
"I think one (thing) that's good is that they are not covering up (racial incidents)," Hollars said. "It's progress at least."
Hollars of Fort Wayne, Ind., is also the author of "Thirteen Loops: Race, Violence and the Last Lynching in America."
He is an assistant professor of creative writing at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

20 Years Ago
1996 – The Vandalia City Council voted 5-4 to approve water and sewer rate increases, which averaged about 16 percent.
The city council voted 6-2 to allow local taverns to have outside beer gardens.
Arthur and Marie Buchanan of Vandalia planned to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. Joe and Evelyn Faggetti also planned a golden anniversary celebration.
This week's photo: These two youngsters were photographed at the Brownstown Carnival 60 years ago. Today, he farms and she checks out books.
You probably have started seeing bright orange trash containers in different parts of Vandalia. Maybe one of those showed up on the curb in front of your residence; if not, it soon will.
Those containers are part of the changes being implemented for residential customers of Doty Sanitation Service within the city borders.
As we continue with our readers' memories of Vandalia and the railroad, other aspects of the history of the railroad are being shared, with memories of World War II's young soldiers passing through Vandalia, taking a brief break when the train stops for a while to take on water, and including the true story of one of Vandalia's long-lived romances, which began on one of those train water stops.
Superintendent of Schools Rich Well delivered good news about state funding to the Vandalia Board of Education on Tuesday, but with a caveat that the news applies only to the new school year.
With state legislators and Gov. Bruce Rauner approving a stop-gap budget that included full education funding, Well said, "it looks like were going to be 100-percent funded.
"It will be the first time in six years that we will have 100 percent of an education budget," he said.
A Vandalia man is jailed on $350,000 bond after being arrested on child pornography charges.
Recent fatal police shootings, and the dangers that the local officers face, were discussed twice during Monday's Vandalia City Council meeting.
Mayor Rick Gottman opened Monday's meeting by asking for a moment of silence for the Baton Rouge and Dallas police officers killed recently.
At the same time, Gottman offered the reminder that tragedies like those don't just happen in large cities.
"People think we're just a small town, but things like that could happen here," the mayor said.
Vandalia residents are being reminded this week of some new guidelines for their trash pickup.

I thought because of the holiday maybe that had to do with our missed pick-up. I called on it a few days later and the lady answering the phones said that she will make a note on the account to make sure our garbage gets picked up the following week.
Mind you, they use to credit you for any weeks missed on their part. Now they claim they will just make a note on the account to make sure the drivers pick up all the garbage rather that their maximum amount.
Well that week came and went as well. Still no garbage pick-up. You can imagine the stench of now 2-weeks worth of garbage.
Sadly this hasn't just happened to our family. It happened to our neighbor as well. I can see maybe skipping/overlooking one house, but a whole street...there's no excuses for it!

I asked at least 10 times on that recorded telephone call if this is in fact a CREDIT card and NOT a DEBIT card or a secured card. Thay told me everytime I asked that it was in fact a Mastercard CREDIT card with a 2000.00 CREDIT limit. I then also told them I was asking so many questions because a few years ago my husband tried one of these same type of things and ended up getting ripped off for a large amount of money. They at that point reassured me this is the real deal A REAL CREDIT CARD!
Well needless to say after being reassured so many times I took the bait. I paid the 249.00 which came out of my account on April 29th (the very next day) and I sat and patiently waited for 30days!!Still no card. I called was told it would take a few more weeks because they had so many people that signed up things got delayed. I waited another few weeks and still no card I called again was told I would have it at the end of the month or the beginning of June. Well by now I am furious. I just kept getting a run around.
I finally did recieve the package on JUNE 25th 2005 WITH NO CREDIT CARD. All it was was a box of pamphlets and an application telling me to send them yet another 39.95!! I called and demanded a full refund and I was told that they cannot give a refund and that I have to write a dispute letter to a woman named MARSHA GRANT. I probably will write this letter and never get my money back. These people are nothing but LIARS and they are getting rich off of all of us. Something needs to be done about this.

It seemed that all was working well but there was a lot of reverberation and the quality was not great. Less than a week later the unit failed to operate. I followed all the online instructions and it still failed. I contacted the "Live Agent" and they had me do the same things all over again to no avail.
After over 4 hours of due diligence of trying to work through the problems I requested a replacement. I was told I had to provide my credit card information in order for it to be processed or the transaction would not go through. I already paid over $40 for this at Staples I was not giving them my credit card information.
As the live agent I was chatting with wrote english that didn't make for clarity in the process I asked for a higher level agent to speak with. At this point they informed me that "I believe that I have already provided you all the information needed, thank you for your time and have a nice day!" and then promptly terminated the chat session. The english in the last statement certainly didn't appear to have any wording conflicts!
As a note when these chat sessions are ended you have no record of what was said. As I suspected something was not right I opened notepad and copied and pasted all of my communications with these agents during the course of my troubleshooting. I knew from experience that when I would be requested to reboot that I would not be able to get back to the live agent that I had been previously chatting with so I wanted a record of what was done and said. This proved to be the case. When requesting the person I was just online with they were no longer available.
MagicJack also does not provide an uninstall process to remove it from your system.
MagicJack.com does not publish their physical address, there is no phone number available for them and they don't even have a way to send them an e-mail! MagicJack is a owned by Ymax Communications and Ymax has the same philosophy with regard to their phone numbers, e-mail, etc. The founder of Ymax is Dan Borislow and the CEO is Donald A. Burns.
As this is a disreputable and shady way to do business I will no longer support this or any other product produced by this company, whether it works or not. I will not tell others what to do but I will certainly "STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY AND THE PEOPLE THAT OPERATE IT!"
As an end note: As there are already over 147 MagicJack reports submitted to this site alone, and that the Company and/or Individuals I just reported are not on the list, I am requesting a link be made.

Hi to All of our Aloha Council Commissioners (UCs, ADCs, DCs, ACCs),
Welcome Aloha Council Commissioners,Our monthly 3rd Wednesday 6PM Council Commissioner (CC) meeting went well with Peyton Williams (Koolau), Karl Sakai (Kamehameha), and Jenn (KoOlina) (by conference call).
The annual charter renewal process is underway. Please engage your units in completing their charters and fulfilling their YPT requirements.
It was announced that Western Region (WR) and National BSA are encouraging all councils to use a one year YPT requirement (Councils can implement their own higher standards).
It has been found that best access into Commissioner Tools (CT) is by using Google Chrome or Fire Fox browsers. Most difficult to access is with Internet Explorer.
All visits (short or detailed) will count equally in CT reporting. With 6 unit visits a year being the gold standard, all 6 visits if done in the remainder of this year will be counted in CT reporting. If you visited units but could not enter the report because it was past the 60 day window for entry, WR recommends to report those visits in CT using a date within the 60 day window so that the info can be counted.
WR is allowing commissioners with good computer savvy to report unit visitations in CT for less computer savvy commissioners. Please help your fellow commissioners to CONTACT units and REPORT in CT.
For LDS stakes with monthly church meetings where unit leaders report on their units, WR is encouraging that a commissioner (possibly an ADC) take notes on the unit leader reports and then enter the reports in CT as visits.
Your attention to and using the helpful hints above are much appreciated!
Much Aloha and Happy Trails.
Dr. Ron Ling- Aloha Council Commissioner
The Aloha Council's Commissioners Team meets the third Wednesday of each month starting at 6:00 p.m. Neighbor island commissioners are asked to conference in using Toll Free: 1 (888) 909-7654 Participant Passcode is 307361.
Commissioner Team The Aloha Council Commissioners Team is comprised of a group of council and district volunteer leaders whose duty is to help Scout units succeed. These individuals consult and coach adult leaders of Cub Scout packs, Boy Scout troops, and Venturing crews to help maintain the standards of the Boy Scouts of America. Commissioners also oversee the unit charter renewal process so that each unit re-registers on time with an optimum number of youth and adult members.

As the 2011 version of March Madness winds down, the coaching carousal continues to spin.
Georgia Tech has ripped Brian Gregory away from Dayton.
Mike Anderson bolted from Missouri to head south and join the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Tennessee told Bruce Pearl to take a hike and signed Cuonzo Martin, the former Missouri State coach, to fill the same role with the Vols.
Now the St. Louis Dispatch is reporting that former Purdue coach Matt Painter has agreed in terms to become the next coach at Missouri.
Painter took his Boilermakers to five tournament appearances in six seasons at Purdue.
But what about Shaka Smart?
This incredible tournament run by VCU has made Smart the hottest coach in America.

"Awesome lady" very professional
Dr. Ormsby is very competent and seems to have sincere interest is her patients well-being. Appointments sometimes run a few minutes late, but worth waiting for this top-notch doc. Certificates on her exam room - Stanford undergrad and Duke medical school. Besides dermatology she's also an internal medicine doctor.
Dermatologists are definitely a busy bunch. Dr Ornsby is a derm I've been to before a few years ago. I get my sunspots checked even tho everything is normal but better safe than sorry. I also had a rash that she looked at and prescribed a steroid/cortisone cream for. I felt the appt. was a bit rushed since mine was at the end of the day and that she didn't check everywhere. But she did measure one spot on my face that was a concern last time (@ 3 years ago) and no change.
Dr. Ormsby decided to "watch" a lump on the back of my leg for a year. When my primary care physician finally demanded that I ask her for a biopsy, the result was a diagnosis of stage 3 melanoma. Fortunately for me, no migratory cells were detected at the time of surgery and no lymph nodes were removed. 7 years later I had a recurrence at the same site and another surgery. I wish that she had ordered the biopsy when we first discussed the lump. I changed doctors as soon as I had the original melanoma diagnosis - before the first surgery.
I'm not sure if her diagnose is always correct. (For the same rash; two different diagnoses within a year.) She is professional, but if you are looking for a Dr. to be friendly and not seeming to be in a hurry to leave, this is not the Dr. for you.

Product Description
It's a bad time to be a monster!
Hidden in their den, in the narrowest tunnels or in the dungeon of some ancient castle, the monster's life is endangered by the "heroes" -- remorseless, bloodthirsty adventurers constantly in search of treasure. And if the mighty archmages take a fancy to the hapless monsters while battling their own millennia-long struggle, what will be the fate of the little MiniMonFas?
Everybody wants the skin (or fur, or hide) of the little MiniMonFas, the youngest and unluckiest among the monsters in every realm.
Don the vest of the most powerful archmage, fight for the rule of the world, build your dungeon rooms and fill them with the little MiniMonFas. Add some traps and deadly pitfalls and send a party of your best adventurers to conquer your opponent's dungeon.
But remember, victory won't be secured until the last game turn.

Sheridan Minneapolis Real Estate
Situated in the Northeast Minneapolis, the neighborhood of Sheridan was named after Philip Sheridan, a revered Civil War General. Historically, Sheridan has been a working class neighborhood and was home to predominantly Eastern European immigrants in the early twentieth century.
In the present day, Sheridan's heart is a bustling commercial district which was once a main line for the neighborhood's streetcar line. This community is also home to many art galleries and a stretch of 13th Avenue that runs through the area is known as "Arts Avenue" for the arts and entertainment destinations featured there.
The majority of the homes here were constructed between 1890 and 1930. There are both single-family dwellings and multi-family complexes that accommodate both homebuyers and renters.

- Check out all Northeast Minneapolis real estate
While much of this neighborhood is constructed to allow industrial companies to make use of the Mississippi River, there is much potential for residential locations in the area, and the river banks are slowly but surely developing into an area of recreational and residential buildings. This neighborhood is home to several apartment buildings, where many of the area's three thousand residents live. Sheridan has recently seen an increase in the number of young families moving to the area, and the under 18 age group is the fastest-growing age group in this neighborhood.
Sheridan - Minneapolis MN Homes & Condos MLS
Like many other Minneapolis neighborhoods, Sheridan residents are committed to improving their community. The Sheridan Neighborhood Organization has helped fund and develop a local public library and lead the charge on the revitalization of a 13th Avenue theatre. Current plans include programs for housing rehabilitation and to increase the availability of affordable housing.

English Lessons for China Airline After Unauthorized Take Off
How do you say "Oops" in Chinese?
China Eastern Airlines is pledging to improve the English-language skills of its crew following an incident in the Japanese city of Osaka where a Shanghai-bound China Eastern flight took off apparently without permission from the tower, in what may have been a simple case of broken communication between the pilot and controllers.
Exact details of what happened at Osaka's airport on Monday remain unclear, but Shanghai-based China Eastern is already promising to improve pilots' English, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
Xinhua cited a report from Japan's Kyodo news agency (in Chinese) as saying an Airbus A330-200 took off just before 2:00 p.m. on Monday even though it didn't have clearance from controllers. The state-run China Daily newspaper said Thursday that Japanese authorities were working to see whether the pilot intentionally ignored controllers' instructions. The pilot of the China Eastern flight, MU516, was apparently instructed to taxi to a runaway and await further instructions. The plane took off instead.

McLaren present the MP4-24
Incorporating new bodywork regulations and the much-heralded return of slick tires, the team's new challenger not only looks radical but also incorporates a host of new innovative features under the skin, such as a sophisticated kinetic energy recovery system (KERS).
While still retaining the distinctive family look established with both the MP4-22 and MP4-23, this year's car is visually very different from its predecessors as a result of two main factors:
The OWG's influence can be most clearly seen around the front wing, which has been widened, and the rear wing – which is now more compact. Other factors affecting aerodynamics include the banning of ancillary appendages, the addition of driver-adjustable front-wing flaps and a heavily revised diffuser.
The MP4-24's KERS device has been developed in collaboration with McLaren and Mercedes-Benz HighPerformanceEngines, which has been developing and refining the system for almost two years. The device enables the car to recover energy under braking, store the energy for a lap and release it when the driver presses a button on the steering wheel.
With a fully optimized KERS device's output capped at 400kJ (discharging 80bhp boost for 6.7s per lap), the development team's primary focus has already shifted to further improving the unit's integration within the chassis in order to minimize performance loss elsewhere within the package.
An optimized KERS package can be expected to deliver a 0.3-0.5s gain per lap.
Winter test program
With in-season track testing now prohibited, the MP4-24 will undergo an intensive winter program at the following venues prior to the season-opening Australian Grand Prix on March 29:
Lewis Hamilton, Heikki Kovalainen, Ron Dennis and Martin Whitmarsh offer their thoughts on the new MP4-24 and look ahead to the 2009 season.

Hey guys,
i know this is simple php but i just cant seem to figure it out. All i want to do is post a picture in wordpress with just the title of the post and an image. But when it goes to tumblr i want the image to link back to the original wordpress post. I think it has something to do with $postlink? i think its around this part of the code im just not sure what the simple solution is...
// Gather valid data for Tumblr post types.
if ('photo' === $post_type) {
$pattern = '/<img.*?src="(.*?)".*?\/?>/';
$matches = array();
preg_match($pattern, $post_body, $matches);
$photo_source = $matches[1];

What Happens to Abandoned Patents?
No one likes to see anything abandoned, patents included. You just want to save them and give them a new life. But how do you know if a patent has been abandoned and what can you do about it? Here's all you need to know about abandoned intellectual property. It's important to clarify that this article does not pertain to patent applications, which also can be abandoned. It refers only to those patents that have been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The Definition of an Abandoned Patent After a patent is issued, maintenance fees must be paid at 3-1/2, 7-1/2, and 11-1/2 year intervals. …..Read Article

Delia's oven temperatures – Conventional or Fan?
I use an electric fan oven. What adjustments (if any) should I make to the temperatures given in the recipes? Thank you.
Q&A's? We are here to help. We being Delia and Lindsey. We work closely together and can answer any queries you have relating to Delia's recipes and our online Cookery School. Why not ask a question right now? What we can't do though, is answer questions about other recipes.
I use an electric fan oven. What adjustments (if any) should I make to the temperatures given in the recipes? Thank you.
I love Delia's Irish Whiskey Christmas cake and have made it dozens of times for formal occasions like weddings. However, I always find that it is difficult to cut neat slices for serving - it tends to crumble. Any suggestions to make it firmer.
Not really a question - just wanted to say what a good idea to remind us of Delia's summer recipes. It has encouraged me to revisit the recipe book! I am also enjoying the downloaded TV series for its original broadcast.
Where can I buy the plastic bags Delia uses in her breadmaking videos
I'm making Delia's mincemeat recipe tonight but not sure if my ceramic mixing bowl is safe to put in the Aga. If I split the amount between two casserole pots would I have to decrease the cooking time?
Hi Lindsey
I'm making Delia's Caramelised Onion and Goat's Cheese Tartlets for a buffet. Can you tell me how long they'll hold up once they've come out of the oven? Thanks very much.

I had a very entertaining and spiritually uplifting time at the Braves' post-game Newsboys concert. They hand an awesome stage presence and their performance was top notch. Michael Tait is the lead vocalist and front man. He sang well and gave an overall good performance. He interacted well with the audience. Their drummer and percussionist Duncan Phillips definitely enjoys what he is doing, and it came across well. Let's not forget keyboardist and bassist Jeff Frankenstein and guitarist Jody Davis. Jody did an especially good solo at one point. The Newsboys performed several songs from their latest CD, "Restart". The music and lyrics are great. I love the themes expressed on each song. If you like good contemporary gospel with a rock edge and good soulful vocals, you will like this CD. The gospel message comes across clearly in each song.

Plug-ins for Aperture
After pestering you folks, and getting savvy advice, I've decided my Workflow will start with Aperture. (whoopee for Apple
I was put off initially, and thus leaning towards LightRoom because it will work with DxO. Aperture won't. Then, a few posters informed asked me what DxO features I need. When I answered :
Shadow recover
Perspective distortion control
Noise removal DxO provides these in spades
They answered that I can get all three with other plug-ins that will work with Apeture.
So, what flavor Plug-ins do I buy to complement Aperture? (Running on a Mac)

For noise, I like Topaz Denoise
For lens distortion, I like PT Lens
For shadow recovery, I like the shadow recovery slider built into Aperture. It works very well. The highlight slider works very well also.

#2. "RE: Plug-ins for Aperture" | In response to Reply # 0pentwater Nikonian since 15th Dec 2003Mon 11-Mar-13 06:29 PM
I really like the Nik plugin suite. Their use of control points in all the apps gives you tremendous control. Dfine works for noise and Viveza is terrific for shadow recovery as well. I also use PTLens which, as the previous poster noted, works great for distortion control.
Enjoy Aperture! Let's hope Apple with Aperture and Google with Nik keep investing in development!
#3. "RE: Plug-ins for Aperture" | In response to Reply # 2Bravozulu Registered since 04th Jun 2012Mon 11-Mar-13 06:41 PM
The mystery just got more complicated. On the Digital Review forum a guy answered my question and said his top pick for PP was PhotoNinja.
I went to their website. And PhotoNinja seems to do it all. Plus it dovetails into either Aperture and/or PhotoMechanic.
At the moment, I feel a bit like Hugh Hefnor. I love them all, but will I respect them in the morning?
To be serious, I could throw a rock and hit a winner with any choice. It is no high time to telephone the Astrology Hotline. Just to check on the alignment of my stars.
I'll post back in a month with my opinion of my new iMac and the PP software I choose.
Thanks for all the time you spent responding.

I like the Nik plugins as well. Dfine is roughly equivalent to DxO in noise removal, and actually does a better job of preserving colors (DxO's colors tend to get a bit washed out in the process). In my limited testing, Dfine was also better than Topaz DeNoise (unrelated, but Topaz Adjust is very good).
And yeah, PTLens is really nice and simple.

I have installed FT and created a few member pages. The member page is correctly displayed, but none of the pages that should include a tree actually includes one.
As an example, the main "family-tree" page just shows the two icons:
- the book "View information about [last member of the family]" and
- the tree "View the family of [last member of the family]"
If I click on the latter, the page shows just the same.
So, all in all, I cannot see any tree.
By looking at the source of the page, I can see all members listed in a "new Array()".
What I tried so far:
- creating more [family-tree] pages, including some with roots
- changing the category and starting over
- deactivate then reactivate
- delete then reinstall [note that even in that case, the DB looks untouched: I can find my old configuration]
Can you please help? I can certainly send more information through a private channel. (The blog itself is protected by password…)
Thank you.
