Nonsurgical Treatment Options for PVD
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD), also known as peripheral arterial
disease (PAD), develops most commonly as a result of atherosclerosis, or
"hardening of the arteries." This occurs when cholesterol and scar
tissue build up, forming a substance called plaque inside the arteries,
which become narrowed and clogged. The clogged arteries cause decreased
blood flow to the legs, which can result in pain when walking and, in
some cases, gangrene and amputation. People with PVD are at increased
risk for heart disease, aortic aneurysms and stroke. PVD is also a
marker for diabetes, hypertension and other conditions.
Major surgery is sometimes required to remove blockages from arteries or
to bypass the clogged area. In many cases, however, the interventional
radiologists of Bryn Mawr Hospital can open blocked or narrowed blood
vessels without major surgery using nonsurgical techniques.
The most common symptom of PVD is claudication, which is leg pain that
occurs when walking or exercising and disappears when the person stops
the activity. Other symptoms include: numbness and tingling in the lower
legs and feet, coldness in the lower legs or feet and ulcers or sores on
the legs or feet that don't heal.
The most common test for PVD is the ankle-brachial index (ABI), a
painless exam in which a special stethoscope is used to compare the
blood pressure in the patient's ankles and arms. Based on the results of
the ABI, as well as the individual's symptoms and risk factors for PVD,
a physician can decide if further tests are needed. When the ABI
indicates that an individual may have PVD, other imaging techniques may
be used to confirm the diagnosis, including duplex ultrasound, magnetic
resonance angiography (MRA) and computed tomography (CT) angiography.
The risk factors associated with PVD include:
In some cases, lifestyle changes—such as smoking cessation, a structured
exercise program and a low-fat diet—can stop the progress of PVD and
manage the disease. Sometimes medications, including those that lower
cholesterol or control high blood pressure, are prescribed to treat PVD.
For other individuals, procedures that open up clogged blood vessels are
necessary to treat PVD.
Major surgery is sometimes required to remove blockages from arteries or
to bypass the clogged area. These procedures are performed by vascular
surgeons. In many cases, however, interventional radiologists can open
blocked or narrowed blood vessels caused by PVD and other conditions
without major surgery using one of the following interventional
radiology techniques:
In this technique, the interventional radiologist inserts a very small
balloon attached to a thin catheter into a blood vessel through a small
nick in the skin. The catheter is threaded under X-ray guidance to the
site of the blocked artery. The balloon is then inflated to open the
With this procedure, the interventional radiologist inserts a small
metal tube called a stent to hold the blood vessel open.
If the blocked artery is caused by a blood clot, the interventional
radiologist inserts thrombolytic (clot dissolving) drugs through a
catheter to eliminate the clot and restore blood flow.
In most cases, these minimally invasive procedures do not require
hospitalization or general anesthesia. There is no surgical
incision—just a small nick in the skin—and no stitches are
needed. Patients may return to normal activity shortly after the

About Yun Qing Fu
I can't remember a time when I didn't take photographs. It seems as if I always had a camera at my fingertips. I have thousands of photos some poor and some great. I am showing you here some of my favorite photos but I will let you decide if they are great.
I have traveled the world and I am still traveling. I live in Moncton Canada and Beijing China. I was a College English teacher in my early years and later worked for China's National Film Museum. Photography as been a passion of mine and I find myself in a position to devote a great deal of time to it.
I love taking photos because they preserve memories in great detail and all the beauty in this world that sometimes only last a moment. I feel lucky and privileged to be able to find those special moments. I try to capture these times so you can see what I see through the eye of the camera.
Thank you for viewing my photography and hopefully you like it enough to purchase a piece or two:)

Bound for Uptown Browns
Uptown Browns is the kind of bar that people come home to.
In business for 28 years, the tavern now has three generations of regulars who call Uptown Browns home, whether they live in Erie, Kalamazoo or Timbuktu.
"We have a group that meets at the bar every night," said co-owner Maryann Genis. "The Shark Tank -- that's what everyone calls them.
"And they really come to life on Friday nights," she added. "Some family member will be in town for the weekend, or an old friend who doesn't live around here anymore. They know where to find their pals."
Uptown Browns caters primarily to a middle-aged crowd.
Yet it's easy to understand why the children and grandchildren of longtime regulars are making their home, too, at this welcoming neighborhood bar perched on the corner of East 30th and German streets.
The interior of the bar is warm and intimate. Richly stained hardwood mahogany, cherry and oak adorn and support the curvaceous L-shaped bar. You instantly feel a sense of contentment when you walk through the front door.
Even though Uptown Browns is a bar with plenty of beer and cocktails to go around, it is equally well known for its powerful pub-grub menu.
It doesn't hurt that the bar's other co-owner is Denae Randolph. In her spare time, Randolph also owns and operates Southgate Pizza. Naturally, quite a bit of what works in the pizza business finds its way into the kitchen at Uptown Browns.
The bar has taken an Erie tradition -- the pepperoni ball -- to heights one can only dream about.
Randolph remarked on Uptown's famous Waterford Balls -- pizza balls with jalapenos and cheddar cheese. "Now we have chicken ranch balls, Italian combo, taco balls, buffalo chicken balls," she said. "Basically, if it's in the kitchen, we'll put it in there for you."
Uptown Browns' weekly Taco Night was so popular that they now offer tacos and quesadillas every day.
If home is where the heart is, the heart is at Uptown Browns -- whether you're from Erie or just in from Timbuktu.

Next time you're on campus, take a short walk up the hill and say hi to Liane de Souza, Southern Adventist University's transition services coordinator. She'd love to talk, but don't expect to cool off in her office. This staff member likes it hot, "so don't be surprised if I have the room at 100 degrees," she laughs.
De Souza's office is adorned with tropical themes that remind her of her warm sunny hometown of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Coming to the United States 15 years ago was a life-altering decision for de Souza. "You just have to start life all over again," says de Souza, who was a principal and English teacher in Brazil. "So I ended up in nursing school. That was, according to everyone, the easiest way of getting a job."
As predicted, she did get a job quickly, but nursing didn't seem to be her calling. Then Southern opened up a master's program in counseling. She decided this would be a great way to combine her education and nursing skills.
After completing the program, de Souza worked as a counselor at Valley Hospital before joining Southern's Counseling and Testing Department, where she counsels about career choices and acts as an adviser to international students. One of the highlights of her job is seeing students gain the tools they need to succeed. De Souza especially loves encouraging the international students who struggle with learning the customs and ways of the United States.
"The students feel like I know what I'm talking about since I wasn't born in the United States," she says.
When asked what it was about counseling she enjoys most, Liane de Souza smiles and says, "I really enjoy being able to help people. I want them to see that there is still light at the end of the tunnel." She agrees with her husband, a pastor, in saying, "we enjoy mending broken people and showing them that there is always hope in Jesus."

After you talked about filesystem dumps, you got me an idea:
1) format the memory stick with the phone software
2) make a dump with dd (dd if=3D/dev/da0 of=3Ddisk.img bs=3D4k)
3) set that up as a memory disk,
4) mount that: lo and behold, the directory structure on the memory disk wa=

files were equal (i.e., not corrupted during copy),

After whipping Hillary Rosen in the public square for days because of her stay-at-home remarks about Ann Romney, a video surfaced that shows hubby Mitt Romney saying something extremely hypocritical.
When Democratic strategist Rosen said that the wife of the presidential candidate "had never worked a day in her life" and doesn't know the struggles of working mothers, the backlash was swift and deadly. She had to backpeddle with apologies and Ann Romney took to the airwaves to defend her position, saying all women should be respected for the choices they make in life.
Mitt Romney used Rosen's misstep to his advantage, attempting to tie the Obama presidency to the real war on women. Now we hear him saying this about stay-at-home Moms while speaking to a group in Manchester, N.H., in January, with fellow Republican Senator John McCain at his side:
"Welfare recipients have a responsibility of working--in my state, we made good progress in that regard following the days of the Welfare Reform Act--When I was Governor, 85 percent of the people on a form of welfare assistance in my State had no work requirement and I wanted to increase the work requirement. I said for instance that even if you have a child 2 year of age, you need to go to work--and people said well that is heartless and I said, well no--I am willing to spend more giving for daycare to allow those parents to go back to work. It will cost the State more providing that daycare but I want the individuals to have the dignity of work, and get people back into the work force..."
(Click on the video above to hear for yourselves).
I had to catch my breath for a minute. So this is how Mitt Romney really feels about stay-at-home Moms--well, the poor ones, at least. When it comes to his wife, it is a sacrifice of magnificent proportions. A selfless act of serving and caring for one's family. In fact, Mrs. Romney has said publicly that Mitt often told her that being a stay-at-home mother "was a more important job than his" when he was governor of Massachusetts. Told her he was so proud of her.
But when it comes to working-class mothers, he is willing to spend more than it would cost to help those mothers spend a little more time with their toddlers, to teach them "the dignity of working" outside of the home. Help me here, but I am utterly befuddled. If you're a mother of limited means, working out of the home, while leaving your baby in daycare for for 9 to 10 hours, restores or develops "dignity" but if you are wealthy, not working a 9-5 isn't classified as "undignified?"
Yesterday, he and his conservative cohorts were extolling the virtues of being a stay-at-home Mom. The high hypocrisy here is stunning and is just one more example of the GOP's lack of connection with anyone who isn't part of the one percent. I am not saying that people should stay on government assistance indifinitely but forcing new mothers out to work when it costs more to pay for daycare, sounds counter-productive and a tad vindictive to me. Job training, education to develop upgraded skills might be a better investment of federal funds.
Over and over their laws and proposed legislation target the poor and coddle the rich. When that gigantuan "welfare check" was written for Wall Street and big banks, no one was told they had to learn "the dignity" of being ethical and self-sacrificing. That they needed to change their border-line fraudulent ways of doing business.
No wonder his own fellow Republicans were calling him Shifty "Etch-a-Sketch" Romney.

Some creative students in Clear Creek ISD produced a batch of 30-second videos that aim to discourage parents from trying to be the "cool mom" or "cool dad" by giving their kids alcohol. At an awards ceremony last night, contest sponsor Comcast honored the top five video-producing teams.
From the company's announcement:
Comcast and the Bay Area Alliance for Youth and Families today announced the first-of-its-kind Public Service Announcement (PSA) competition aimed to help high school students educate parents about the importance of preventing underage drinking.
Working both individually and in teams, students in Clear Creek ISD have four weeks to produce a 30-second PSA for the "Parents! Listen Up!!" contest. Students studying in the areas of Media and Technology at Clear Brook, Clear Creek, Clear Lake and Clear Springs High Schools were specifically invited to participate.
"The number one deterrent for underage drinking is parent disapproval," said Julie Purser, PhD, Bay Area Alliance Coalition coordinator. "Statistics show that nearly 65% of teens who drink say they get their alcohol from family and friends so it's important to understand that adults who host parties where minors are present can be held liable and in violation of law if underage drinking occurs."
The top 10 finalists of the PSA competition will be announced at an awards ceremony scheduled for April 15 with top-five winning entries to air on Comcast's cable system in the Greater Houston area. Other prizes for the finalists include HD Flip Video Cameras, Best Buy gift cards, tickets to the Houston Zoo and Comcast On Demand coupons.
"The PSA competition is a perfect opportunity for students to apply what they're learning in school to increase awareness of the serious dangers related to underage drinking," said Tony Speller, senior vice president for Comcast's Houston region. "Given their mission to create an alcohol and drug-free culture for our youth, the Bay Area Alliance for Youth and Families is a perfect partner for this."
The Bay Area Alliance for Youth and Families has worked for years to develop a community compelled to create an alcohol and drug-free culture for youth and has partnered with Comcast several times over the last few years to produce and run PSA's focusing on this issue. The two organizations see the PSA competition as a new avenue to unite and mobilize both students and parents.
Here's a look at the winning entries.
First-place entry by the Wite Fireflys team at Clear Springs High School
Title: Don't Give Your Kids Alcohol
Second-place entry by the Meow team at Clear Springs High School
Title: What's the Difference?

The Bucs improved to 5-3, while The Citadel dropped its third straight to fall to 4-4.
CSU hit two home runs in the first, a solo shot by Bobby Ison and a three-run blast from Robbie Streett.
The Citadel came back with four runs in the sixth, with an RBI double by Drew DeKerlegand and a two-run single from Johnathan Stokes to cut CSU's lead to 7-5.
Three walks and a wild pitch helped the Bulldogs get within 7-6 in the seventh, but The Citadel failed to capitalize with runners and second and third with one out.
CSU starter Tory Schroff (2-0) allowed four hits and seven strikeouts over five innings, and Austin Weekley worked the ninth to earn the save.
The Bulldogs and Bucs play a three-game series March 22-24, with the first and third games at Riley Park.

HOLLIDAYSBURG - The attorneys for an Altoona man who was a juvenile when he committed a 1988 murder have asked for a new sentencing hearing in view of a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that determined a mandatory life-without-parole sentence for juveniles is unconstitutional.
James Franklin Rodgers, now 41, has spent the last 24 years behind bars for the murder of 72-year-old Pasquale Lascoli of Altoona. He is currently incarcerated at the State Correctional Institution at Somerset.
Lascoli was stabbed between 70 and 80 times during a home invasion robbery in the summer of 1988.
A federal public defender from Pittsburgh has filed a petition for a new sentencing for Rodgers, Blair County Deputy District Attorney Wade Kagarise said Monday.
The request, the third in Blair County since June, comes in the wake of the high court's ruling in Miller v. Alabama. The justices ruled it is unconstitutional to impose a mandatory life-without-parole sentence if that individual was under 18 when the killing occurred.
The issue is complicated because the Supreme Court was silent whether its ruling was retroactive, meaning that it would apply to cases that have already been decided, Kagarise said.
Rodgers was sentenced April 3, 1991, in Blair County Court to life without parole for his first-degree murder conviction.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has already taken up the argument concerning retroactivity, Kagarise said. The court has agreed to review two cases in September that will address the issue of whether the Miller decision applies to closed cases.
But assistant federal public defender Kirk J. Henderson said the Miller decision does apply retroactively.
Because Pennsylvania's mandatory sentencing law is unconstitutional, there is no other legal sentence for juveniles convicted of first degree murder, Henderson argued.
"Miller dictates that Mr. Rodgers' mandatory life without possibility of parole sentence violates the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution, and therefore, constitutes a miscarriage of justice," according to Rodgers' petition.
The two other people asking for sentencing reviews are Leonard Bocchicchio and Kristen Edmundson.
Bocchicchio, formerly of Altoona, is lodged at SCI-Houtzdale for the 1980 bowling ball murder of 75-year-old Elwood Figard at the former Penn Classic Bowling Lanes in Logan Township. Bocchicchio, 49, serving as his own attorney, did not specifically ask for a new hearing.
Edmundson, formerly of Duncansville, now 31, is challenging her life-without-parole sentence for the May 2001 murder of 20-year-old Shari Lee Jackson.
Edmundson and a friend, Marie Seilhamer, are both serving life-without-parole for the killing. The two lured Jackson into a car and took her to a wooded area near the Blair-Clearfield county line.
Seilhamer used a baseball bat and Edmundson a box cutter to kill Jackson, whose body was later moved to another location and set on fire.
Edmundson seeks to extend the ban on mandatory life sentences for juvenile killers to defendants who are as old as 25.
She was in her 20s when Jackson was murdered, but Edmundson is arguing that young adults between 18 and 25 years old, like juveniles, have minds that are not yet fully mature emotionally in their ability to control impulses or make decisions.
Edmundson attached a copy of an article published by the American Psychological Association to support her contention.
The Miller decision does not ban life-without-parole sentences, Kagarise said in discussing the Rodgers and Bocchicchio cases.
It simply determined such sentences can't be "mandatory" for juveniles, he said. A judge, under Miller, still can impose such a sentence but only after a hearing.
Hearings soon will be held by the state Senate Judiciary Committee to consider a new law that would give judges guidelines on imposing sentences for juvenile killers, Kagarise said.
The state may impose a new procedure that is used in first-degree murder cases, requiring the sentencing judge to examine aggravating and mitigating characteristics of the defendant, he said.
Kagarise said that in both the Rodgers and Bocchicchio cases, he will argue - if new sentencing hearings are required - that life-without-parole is the appropriate sentence because of the brutality of the crimes.

Edgware Sephardi minyan closes
A Sephardi minyan which opened its doors with high hopes in January 2008, has announced that it has closed, due to insufficient support.
Kehilat Shevet Yehuda, which met above the Edgware Torah Centre in Hale Lane, was founded by two Edgware residents who believed that the size of the local Sephardi community - thought at the time to be around some 30 per cent of the total number of Jews in the area - was not reflected among the cluster of shuls serving the neighbourhood. They were convinced that despite the existence of a long-established Sephardi congregation in the neighbourhood, there was a demand for another one in the district. Since that time, the independent Edgware Sephardi minyan has acquired a new permanent home in Edgwarebury Lane, while another Sephardi minyan now convenes regularly for Shabbat services at nearby Stanmore United Synagogue.
A spokesman for Shevet Yehuda, said: "After running for three years and experiencing exciting highs, we have not been able to establish a viable kehilla with sustainable minyanim. It is very sad to see the end of such a promising community where special friendships were made, learning was generously and warmly shared, tefillot were offered in silence, kiddushim were vibrant and all were received with smiles."

Michigan residents were eager to make sure they can vote for president Nov. 4.
Clerks are handling tens of thousands of duplicate voter registration forms that poured into their offices in the month before the Oct. 6 registration deadline. Many forms came courtesy of community organizing groups, political parties and voter drives.
That's a good sign for election officials happy that more people want to vote. But it's also a drain on resources at a time absentee voter applications and ballots must be processed, too.
Clerks say they've gotten few voter registration applications they believe are fraudulent.
Clerks attribute duplicates registrations to enthusiastic voters and the people who signed them up at rallies, on college campuses and elsewhere.

Opting to end pregnancy is difficult, personal decision
How truly discouraging it is to read a letter like, "America must end this war on babies," in the Jan. 22 column. A woman's decision about whether or not to take an unintended pregnancy to full term is complex, nuanced and intensely personal. It is often an exceedingly difficult decision, one that is rarely treated cavalierly.
Shame on this writer for heaping upon those of her own gender such scorn and public denigration. A war on babies? Waged by whom and for what possible reason? The writer should keep such ideological rubbish in her own head, and leave the hard work of choice to those embattled, uniquely individual women upon whom it has fallen.

Olympic Star Skier Lindsey Vonn: Can She Be Both Role Model and Swimsuit Model?Romi Lassally
Shock horror! The U.S. Olympic team's star skier Lindsey Vonn is not only an incredible athlete, but she's also taken (gasp) endorsement money and (gasp, gasp) posed scantily clad in Sports Illustrated. Does the fact that she's a swimsuit model negate her value as a role model?
As we wait on pins and needles (and weather) to see how injured Olympic darling Lindsey Vonn will fare in the women's alpine opener, we have down time to contemplate her recent shin vs. skin headlines. With a potentially Olympic-dream-breaking injury, there's been an endless stream of "Will she or won't she compete" speculation. With her recent Sports Illustrated swimsuit photo spread, there's also been a pretty steady stream of "why is she objectifying herself in a bikini?" talk as well. So what's a hot, blonde, athlete to do? And how are we supposed to feel about all of this?
Observing from the sidelines (as both woman and mother), my knee jerk reaction was "Shame on you Lindsey. Put some clothes on." I couldn't help it – I looked from the Sports Illustrated cover she graced one week (an honor), to the infamous bathing suit edition (exploitation?) she was in the following week and wished it was only her athletic achievement in the spotlight — Not just for me, but for my impressionable kids who are following the winter games with gusto.
But it was really a "shame on me" moment — I never would have felt this way if it was a male athlete stripping down to sell himself or someone's product. The list is long of shirtless, beefcake male Olympians (not to mention the regular pro's out there) and I certainly never complained when Michael Phelps found any (and every) opportunity to show some skin. Never.
I also had to take a step back and acknowledge that Lindsey had only posed in a bikini (for a sports magazine!) and that this wasn't former Olympians Amanda Beard or Katerina Witt posing in the buff as they did for Playboy. Also, as Lindsey's teammate, Kaylin Richardson said,
"To see a beautiful athlete among all those rail-thin models… She'll have those pictures all her life. Her kids can say, 'Mom was super hot and super fast.'"
I'm with Kaylin – despite the fact that there are definitely mixed messages here to deal with, I think we have to accept and celebrate Lindsey as super hot and super fast. It's the way it is in our culture that unfortunately gives equal weight to beauty as it does to ability and talent.
Let's just hope that nasty shin injury heals so she has the option to be both.
*And let's hope she doesn't pose for Playboy…then all bets are off.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Home Decor
|Retro / Vintage, Hipster, Casual, Funky
What materials did you use? Science themed cotton print in yellow and black, black batik, and other prints in yellow, green, and gray. Improvisational quilt called Science Friday, long arm quilted
What are you most proud of? Glad to be finished--there are 45 blocks to quilt and I wanted to experience with each block to try something different--quirky designs made up on the fly. I'm not going to concern myself with the frightened job I did on feathers. My husband said they looked like golf clubs. I chuckled and said, "oh thanks a lot dear."
What advice would you give someone starting this project? TIP: Especially with the plain blocks--draw diagonal lines from corner to corner to make a big X. I used a big plastic ruler and fine line Frixion pens. Sometimes I added more lines to make squares. The center mark, diagonal marks, and squares helped me to repeat key elements.
Oh, please do post a picture of your golf club design ! I really like your random approach on quilting each block. And your choice of white binding turned out perfect too. Golf clubs please !
OMG, this beautiful! I love the color combination. Quilting the the blocks differently adds great texture and finishes the quilt perfectly. Love it.
Love your colors and quilting! So bright and happy!
Hi Oma2EZE. Thanks for your kind words. This is one of those "try every design you can think of" long arm quilt stitching sampler. It was fun, but lots of quilt work.

Ask for your test results so you can see for yourself what your "high" levels are. Many doctors think anything over 130 is high and needs to be lowered. Not true.
So yeah I decided (who knows why) to go to the doctor a few weeks ago for a health check up.
They put me on blood pressure medicine, which has now decreased my potassium to "critically low" levels.
I picked up the potassium this morning and they said I had to take it IMMEDIATELY with "lots" of food and water. Since I'm on 24H IF and have been for 2 weeks now, I don't have any food with me (at work) and I am certainly not going to break my 3 months of no fast food streak.
THEN I got an email from the doctor saying that my cholesterol and glucose were elevated and because of these things I was pre-diabetic. She said I have to immediately begin eating lean meats and whole grain breads and cereals plus fish. 1. I don't eat bread 2. I loathe fish, the smell makes me nauseous. 3. Lean Meat?! QQ
But they've seriously got me scared, I don't want to completely reverse all my primal plans because I feel amazing. I've lost 25 pounds in 2 months, my skin is so clear I no longer need makeup, my hair is shiny, and I'm more active than I've ever been. None of which seems to be impressing my doctor.
Doctor orders are compelling and I feel really stuck between a rock and a hard place. I don't want to go back to bloating, IBS, adult acne, and sluggishness. I also don't want the doctor to yell at me anymore, and I don't want to get diabetes (though how going back to eating starch and sugared things will help that, I don't know.)
I guess I need advice or help or just someone to pat me on the back and say all will be ok.
Ask for your test results so you can see for yourself what your "high" levels are. Many doctors think anything over 130 is high and needs to be lowered. Not true.
My cholesterol was 215, the report says that average is <200.
My fasting glucose was 112, the report says that average is 77-99.
I AM substantially overweight (5'8" and 308 lbs currently) but it is going steadily down. My BP was 131/96 and it was the third time it had been high (especially my resting rate) and that is why I'm on the meds. They say if I keep losing weight and my big stressor (my mom is in the hospital and I'm handling all her finances/affairs for 2+ months now) that I won't need the medicine anymore. I can't stand doctors or medicines and I honestly regret going.
I also have not told the doctor about intermittent fasting because I don't imagine that going over very well, either. It has been met with 2000% resistance from pretty much everyone I've told.
Those same people (not me. I wouldn't give out medical advice. That would be horrible. I'm no doctor!) might say your second mistake was taking blood pressure medicine. Treating symptoms rather than underlying causes might not prove to be a great strategy in the long-term.Originally Posted by qqemokitty
So they prescribed you something that had adverse effects, then prescribed you something else to deal with those effects? (I use prescribed in the "recommended" sense, not necessarily the medical-license sense)Originally Posted by qqemokitty
I'm not gonna say that the simple solution is to stop going to the doctor (until you actually need a doctor), but a lot of people here might. Do you want to get better or do you want to stay sick and be under treatment?Originally Posted by qqemokitty
So they say your blood pressure will get better once you've lost weight. Eating grains and low fat food is not going to help you with that! Stick to a Primal diet with plenty of variety to make sure you're getting all the fat, protein and essential nutrients you need.
Intermittent fasting can be good for correcting insulin sensitivity, but it can add unnecessary stress too. Maybe give fasting a rest until your life stresses are reduced. As you are still big, the weight will drop off fast even without fasting.
They are trying to panic you into changing your diet, not understanding that you're already doing the right thing. Just nod and pretend to agree with them when they get stuck on a CW loop, and reassure them that you're doing your bit.
Start weight: 238 lbs (March 2012)
Current weight: 205 lbs (July 2012)
Loss so far: 33 lbs!!!
WOE: Primal + IF
Movements: Hiking, sprinting.
Goal: to see my abs some time in 2013!
I think it's normal to be worried when your doc tells you to change what you're doing. But have you thought of getting a second opinion from a different doc? We can all give you advice till we're blue in the face, but you'd likely feel better if you had a different MD review your situation and give you their input.
Fasting makes me feel really good actually, though I am going to give in and break it today so I can take the potassium pill at lunch since such low potassium can cause arrhythmia and I don't want THAT to happen. (Of course my potassium was fine before *rolleyes*)
I think I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing. I'll take the bp meds and the potassium because my bp IS high, I suppose. Though it has not gone down since taking the pill. >.> I don't know. Once you get sucked in, you are SUCKED IN and they want to be poking and prodding and testing and leaving persistent voice mails every other hour, heh.
Since I have Kaiser I'm fairly certain any other MD I get for my PCP will be fully engaged in the CW approach, as that is part of their riff lately, fighting obesity with whole grains and regimental exercise etc.
I feel calmer now, thanks everyone.
You have an intelligent plan--the BP is the only thing that's currently critical, and as you lose weight you'll be able to get off the BP meds.
Ignore the doctor's 'dietary' advice. Eating grains will drive you right into diabetes. Just stick with what you're doing. You know it's the right thing; he's just spouting the crap he learned in med school--or what the drug reps tell him.
It's too bad about your insurance because any doctor who 'yelled' at me would be my former doctor.
If I were you, I'd invest in a home BP monitor (they're inexpensive, and I have had one for years). This way you can monitor your own BP and go to the doctor as seldom as possible. You want to watch it because as it lowers naturally, the meds can bring it too low.
That's a good idea on the home BP monitor, thank you!
I could request a different doctor, but I am not offended enough yet to do so. PLUS I really like the nurse there, who is very supportive and positive towards me when I go. I spend more time with the nurse than the doctor typically, he was just on vacation this week. =P
I would sure try some natural solutions AND monitor my BP at home for a while before getting on BP meds; especially one that messes with your electrolytes. Potassium helps LOWER BP. I just can't get my head around taking something that depletes it to lower BP??????

Food, glorious -- and talked about! -- food!
Three recent events centered around a meal. Two unfolded within paces of each other in the Vieux Carre on the same evening, and another, on the edge of the Quarter, marked midday for its assembling.
"Meanwhile Back at Cafe du Monde, " titled a "unique, festive monologue event about the 2nd universal language -- FOOD -- and how our lives revolve around food." The event which, of course, filled the bill and combined a buffet dinner at Ralph & Kacoo's in the French Quarter with a slew of original monologues, was a taste treat times two. After guests served themselves and raised a glass (or two) of cheer, they settled in their seats to applaud master of ceremonies Eric Paulsen, who launched the levity. Next up was Peggy Sweeney-McDonald, who has roots in Baton Rouge, by now hails mostly from Los Angeles.
The event, which she produces in various parts of the state and the country along with Jay Basist through SuperStar Events-LA, is a little bit theater, a lot about cuisine and a cultural celebration. Her piece, "Meanwhile Back at Cafe du Monde, " which now marquees the event, was the first one. Successive ones, and they were all self-written or composed, were performed and presented by Margarita Bergen, Tommy Cvitanovich, Drew Ramsey, Melvin Rodrigue, Frank Stansbury, Jeanne Vidrine and a few others, such as Ann Tuennerman, creator of Tales of the Cocktail. Topics touched on childhood memories, Katrina situations, how to make certain drinks or dishes, all with the focus on food. Oysters, Hubig pies, po-boys, and a fine Sazerac got due discussion. All the while, hearty helpings of laughter ensued.
Among those applauding the "Meanwhile" monologuists were Myles and Sherry Sweeney, Bob and Norris Williams, Casey Willems, Bob and Sharon Weilbaecher, Margie Nolan-Wheatley and husband Julian Wheatley, Beth Goddard, Kathy Singleton, Scott Jefferson and Alice St. Germain, Vincent and Reagan Paciera, Ann Marie Pinkney, Allison Rodgers, and lots more. A number of them will be calling Ralph & Kacoo's to reserve second helpings of the show. The encore meal-monologues will take place on Oct. 25 and 26 with a different lineup of tale-tellers each night. Partial proceeds are slated for Liberty's Kitchen and its chef Brack May and T-Daria Evans are among the headliners.
While that bunch was taking one figurative beignet at a time, the Ducks Unlimited Sponsor's Banquet feasted at and filled Galatoire's. As usual, the dinner sells out. According to a DU principal Mike Benge, "The New Orleans Chapter is celebrating being the number 4 chapter in the nation last year." That's certainly a feather in their cap.
On another calendar date, the International Freight Forwarders and Customs Brokers Association of New Orleans hosted its 24th annual State of the Port Address and Rose Mary PeDotti Scholarship Presentation at the Westin Hotel in Canal Place. Gary LaGrange, president and CEO for the Port of New Orleans, addressed a group of more than 135 attendees.
Prior to his talk, folks gathered for a 30-minute reception in the foyer outside the hotel's ballroom. Then they sat at tables of eight for a three-course meal that included tossed salad, grilled chicken breast topped with pesto cream sauce, veggies, and chocolate mousse. Among the notables, in addition to Gary LaGrange, were Jane Willis, daughter of the late Rose Mary PeDotti, who had the honor of recognizing Colin Cisco and Maranda Alvarez as scholarship recipients; U.S. Coast Guard Capt. Ed Stanton, the Sector Commander for the Port of New Orleans; U.S. Bureau of Customs and Border Protection Area Port Director Mitchell Merriam; and Port Commissioners John Fay Jr., Valerie Cahill, and Tommy Westfeldt II, who is also a former Rex, king of Carnival.
Also, past IFFCBANO president Billy App, who gave the invocation; current president Sandra Frazier, who introduced Gary LaGrange; vice president John Hyatt; and executive director Cathy Vienne.

text: The Capuchin Tower was built in 1526 with a clock being added by 1549 that gave the tower its original name – the Hoher Zitturm (High Time Tower). Two other common names (Fürgloggenturm and Luegisland) used in the 17th and 18th centuries pointed to the tower's various functions. No other tower in the city wall afforded such good views of the city area and so in the event of storms, the city authorities set up watchmen on the tower to warn of fire or flood. Built into the ridge turret is the Peace Clock, which has rung for a quarter of an hour on 8 May each year since 1946 to commemorate the end of World War II.

About David Bach
|Email Print
David Bach is a very prolific money expert and the first guru listed (alphabetically) on our Top Money Guru poll.
He is most well known for two major ideas in personal finance. The first one, which I'm a firm believer of, was captured in his book titled The Automatic Millionaire. The basic idea behind the automatic million was that by automating your savings, you could grow your nest egg considerably through your decades of work. To many personal finance readers, this doesn't seem like mind blowing information. However, when you think about the simplest way to "save automatically," what do you think of? Probably a 401(k), if your employer offers it, or some other kind of retirement plan.
Unfortunately, retirement plan participation has always been fairly low. In 2011, it was just 39.7%. If you only include full time workers, it goes up a little bit but ultimately very few people can or choose to participate. So while it may not be a novel idea to you or me, it's still an important one.
Now, the next major idea he has is one that has a sexier name – the latte factor. It's really a corollary to the automatic savings idea but focuses on spending. If you spend $3 a day on coffee each morning, on your latte, then that can really add up over the years in terms of lost savings. Brown bag your lunch to save $10 a day and put it towards your retirement.
In addition to those two major ideas (and books), he's published a grand total of eleven books (many of those are on bestseller lists). His first book was Smart Women Finish Rich and it stayed on bestseller lists for many many years. Trent at The Simple Dollar has a very detailed review of that book.

- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt

- 1 tablespoon snipped fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil

One event happens to the righteous and the wicked;
To the good,
To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice.
As is the good, so is the sinner;
He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.
3 This is an evil in all that is done under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead. 4 But for him who is joined to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
For the living know that they will die;
But the dead know nothing,
And they have no more reward,
For the memory of them is forgotten.
Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished;
Nevermore will they have a share
In anything done under the sun.
Go, eat your bread with joy,
And drink your wine with a merry heart;
For God has already accepted your works.
Let your garments always be white,
And let your head lack no oil.
9 Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.
10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.
I returned and saw under the sun that�
The race is not to the swift,
Nor the battle to the strong,
Nor bread to the wise,
Nor riches to men of understanding,
Nor favor to men of skill;
But time and chance happen to them all.
For man also does not know his time:
Like fish taken in a cruel net,
Like birds caught in a snare,
So the sons of men are snared in an evil time,
When it falls suddenly upon them. Wisdom Superior to Folly
13 This wisdom I have also seen under the sun, and it seemed great to me: 14 There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great snares[a] around it. 15 Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that same poor man.
Then I said:
�Wisdom is better than strength.
Nevertheless the poor man�s wisdom is despised,
And his words are not heard.
Words of the wise, spoken quietly, should be heard
Rather than the shout of a ruler of fools.
Wisdom is better than weapons of war;
But one sinner destroys much good.�

Construction begins on Route 8
Contractors are replacing culverts on Route 8 at Interstate 90 in Millcreek Township.
Northbound and southbound traffic will be maintained during construction, but traffic patterns will change to accommodate the work.
Construction is expected to be completed by the end of September.
The culverts are structurally deficient, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation spokesman Jim Carroll said.
One is over Mill Creek, near Wager Road, north of the interstate. The other is over a tributary of Mill Creek, just south of the interstate.

A normal shower in an act to clean oneself with the added perk of drinking an ice-cold beer. Some attempt to take the quickest shower while simultaneously drinking the higher number of beers. Amber Showers are more fully enjoyed in communal showers such as dorm floor bathrooms, fraternities/sororities, etc. They are also recommended after a long workout or for maximizing the affects of pre-drinking. {AKA- Shower Beer}
"Me and my bros used to take Amber Showers together back in the day when we lived in the residence halls. My record Amber Shower was eight beers in twenty minutes."

SAGINAW, MI - The Seekers paranormal investigative team was gathering steam in "A Haunting on Potter Street" tonight at the Temple Theatre, with temperatures dropping, meters blinking and all sorts of disembodied voices saying things like "Pray for me."
And seconds before the capacity house would let loose with a collective gasp, seeing a floating face peek around an open doorway, a hand reached out of the dark and tapped me on the shoulder.
I fell back to ground just in time to hear director Steve "Prozak" Shippy whisper "I'm glad you could make it."
It was obvious, too, in watching Shippy, Tim Rooney and Adam Eugenio and "Ghost Hunters" veteran Brian Harnois watch the final product that they were enjoying Saginaw's ghost story as well.
Harnois, who said he is retiring from ghosthunting after 20 years, other than future projects with the Seekers, sat forward in his chair, his hand pressed to his face as he intently watched the crew onscreen tiptoe around uneven floor boards in search of the elusive woman in white and the dark man others had reported.
In time, they manage to capture both, drawing applause from an audience that went from pin-drop quiet to nervous laughter to applause at the drop of a light bulb.
OK, it probably helped that we all heard someone unseen loosen the light bulb before it tumbled to the ground.
The Potter Street edition didn't have the wild activity caught at The Stable in Old Town, but what was caught on cameras and recorders resonated on a deeper level, maybe because it was a building frozen in history.
"We had so much that didn't make the cut at the end of the day," Shippy said. "But the gratification for us comes, after a sell-out, from the response of the public.
"I think more things happened as the entities warmed to us. Think about it, this is a place where they are undisturbed for 365 days a year. It's an adjustment to have us around."
And at least one on the team, executive producer Brent Shay, announced from the start that he was leaving the station and would never step foot in it again.
"He saw a figure and thought it was one of us," Shippy said. "But when it turned around, he saw a distorted face and that was enough for him."
Some of the scariest moments, Shippy admitted, came from navigating the rotting woodwork and tumbling bricks. That provided some of the most poignant moments, too, for those in the audience who remembered the station when it was in full glory.
For Eugenio, it was the oohs, ahs and applause that made tonight one he'll remember.
"It's very different watching what we saw edited down, shown on a big screen with people reacting as they did tonight," he said. "We saw what happened, of course, but there's a new apprehension when you're watching it with a crowd."
And it didn't take long before the team hinted at more to come. The showing opened with a trailer to "A Haunting in Saginaw, Michigan," shot in a private residence. And there's talk of preliminary work on a fifth.
"A single mom raising her two daughters asked us several times to help her," Shippy said. "Kids were involved so even though it wasn't in our realm, we gave it a try."
It's different, he said, because they are dealing with a single entity who isn't shy about letting his presence known.
"Then we're going to look at the Dice Road cemetery," he said. "That one has drawn a lot of interest; it could be our most anticipated yet."
"A Haunting on Potter Street" continues at 9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 3, and 7 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 4, at the Temple Theatre, 203 N. Washington in Saginaw.
Tickets, available at the box office, by calling 989-754-SHOW and online at templetheatre.com, cost $17 and include a DVD of the documentary and a meet-and-greet with the Seekers paranormal team and "Ghost Hunters" veteran Brian Harnois.

Cowboys hold players-only meeting; Wade Phillips: 'I don't mind that at all'
With the Super Bowl at Cowboys Stadium looming, the Cowboys are off to their worst start since 2001.
And so a players-only meeting was held, and coach Wade Phillips answered questions about his coaching style and his job security.
"It doesn't have anything to do with that," said Phillips, who signed a two-year extension last year. ``It's my own pride in myself and working at what I do and trying to do better if it isn't working out.
``I've said it before, we went 11-5 in Houston and we'd just been to the AFC championship game two years in a row. We lost a playoff game and they fired us. I thought I was doing a good job. From then on I didn't judge myself on those things, I judged myself on how hard I worked at it and what I tried to do."
Cornerback Terence Newman suggested the players' meeting Sunday night. He and Mike Jenkins blamed the Chicago loss on a lack of focus in practice and overconfidence.
Phillips said he supported the players' meeting:
``It depends on what's said and how much it means to them. It's done good things for teams and they come back and win everybody said it was good. You encourage it; Yeah, that's fine. Again, accountability and they want to be accountable to each other and they want to say what they have to say and I don't mind them, especially our captains, when they talk to the team, I don't mind that at all.''
