outstanding wound care physician
Incredibly smart with a great bed side manner. It was always a pleasure to see the Dr., he spends time with you and explains everything that's going on.
I am from California and moved to Texas and had a very bad accident, which became infected. I think I was the worst patient ever. Everyone, every doctor were so patient with me, and helped me get through a difficult time in my life. I would tell someone looking for professional, caring and above and beyond care...Abilene Regional Wound Care Center and Dr. Bumann and his staff are the BEST. Love ya I'm back in California now, but I'll never forget you all and hope I never need you again, but I'd fly all the way back if I did. God Bless
This doctor and crew are outstanding service providers and very dedicated to their patients healing.
One of the most caring and compassionate physicians that I have ever met. He took the time to sit down and talk to me and explain everything that he did.

SKYLON ACE XV JR R EV0910/800 Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses are the perfect accessory on the beach, on the way to the office or in the city. There is only one slight drawback: all the envious looks you will attract. The new Nike underlines that you are a trendsetter. For the current season the renowned label sets the standards with its collection for 2016. Would another colour not be a better match for your favourite outfit? Check also the other styles of SKYLON ACE XV JR R EV0910in our 2015, and 2016 Nike range.
SKYLON ACE XV JR R EV0910 has been designed especially for children. It not only looks cool, it also has a solid and stable construction. The semi-rim frame has an emphatic lightness which is perfectly suitable for different occasions and different outfits. The quadratic shape makes the face appear longer, due to its straight outer edges. The frame is, therefore, particularly advantageous for more rounded facial features. Injected frames are made of a special plastic which is particularly lightweight. You can rely on the guaranteed UV400 protection, for all the sunglasses in our shop.
Even if this Nike is presently not in stock, it is worth ordering now, because the current price can't be beaten. In our online shop we have consistently low prices. You won't get SKYLON ACE XV JR R EV0910 at such a low price, not even in the sale.

Having recently rediscovered Richard Lewis on a recent episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm", I wasn't sure what to expect (he didn't have much to say that episode). He rambled, he wandered, I'd say he has ADHD and he was very funny. He didn't seem to have much of a script; he riffed on the 9/11 bikers who jammed up traffic in Crystal City (which isn't a city but is really Arlington, he found out), the strangeness of the venue (Synetic props of large cogs on the wall and the theatre is underground) and that he has been in 10 cities in 19 days = exhausted. He's a veteran stand-up comic at 64, a former coke addict and alcoholic, which he mentioned several times along with various physical maladies. He's probably a miracle of modern science! I laughed a lot, which was the point. Just bear in mind that he is profane, not PC and tells a lot of Jewish and dysfunctional family jokes.

It was pretty good. The venue was great but the parking situation was a mess. There was free parking but the hotel had the entrance blocked with 2 box trucks and a dumpster.

Will this type of case become a trend?

Hữu Ngọc asked me yesterday on the way to lunch whether I had written any poems about Hanoi. "Only one," I told him. This appeared a while back in the Beloit Poetry Journal & it is the second poem (currently) in the book manuscript I'm trying to finish putting together:
Category: Writing
Redundancy & Style in Vietnamese
Vietnamese poets�this may be common in everyday speech, but I haven�t run across it�will pile up two words with essentially the same meaning. Here is an example: The poet T� Ngọc Thạch begins a line with the phrase �Lớp lớp địa tầng� in which, as near as I can tell by dictionary crawling, both �Lớp lớp� and �địa tầng� can straightforwardly be translated as �layers� or �strata� in English. I don�t know whether I should render this as just �layers� or �strata� or something more like �layers of strata.� Clearly, I need to seek the help of a Vietnamese poet on this, but I'm beginning to think that Vietnamese writers use these doublings & sometimes triplings to elicit shades of meaning. That is, redundancy — that's what we'd call it in the West — is a fundamental element of style in Vietnamese, particularly in literature, but also in everyday speech.
Rousseau's Mind
I'm not sure if "mind" is exactly the word I'm looking for–is there a word that combines the sense of "mind" & "personality? Style, maybe. In the Confessions, Rousseau writes, "I have a passionate�temperament, and lively and headstrong emotions. Yet my thoughts arise slowly and confusedly, and are never ready till too late" (113). I've certainly felt this way all my life and one of the things that draws me to the Confessions is the sense that I am reading about myself. Rousseau, looking back on his life, discerns traits I recognize looking back on my own life. He tells us that he can only speak fluently to a sympathetic auditor: "My heart loved to expand, provided there was another heart to listen. But dry and cold questionings, without any sign of approval or blame, gave me no confidence" (84). �Ah, so this is not my failing alone! He goes on:
But I do not suffer from this combination of quick emotion and slow thoughts only in company. I know it too when I am alone and when I am working. Ideas take shape in my head with the most incredible difficulty. They go round in slow circles and ferment, agitating me and overheating me till my heart palpitates. During this stir of emotion I can see nothing clearly, and cannot write a word; I have to wait. Insensibly all this tumult grows quiet, the chaos subsides, and everything falls into place, but slowly, and after long and confused perturbations (113).
For a long time I thought this described the mental processes of all writers, but then I met writers who said they merely transcribed what they already knew rather than having to figure things out during the actual process of writing. I suspect most poets are like me (and Rousseau), but I won't presume to speak for fiction writers. Often, I have the sense that it is the language itself thinking through me. The main consequence of this is that it take me forever to write anything. I'm among the least prolific poets I know even though I am writing pretty much all the time. Lately, I have been able to write some extended prose–a whole conference paper!–but proset is always a grind, exactly as Rousseau describes.
Confessions of Jean-Jacques Rousseau
How can I have made it to age sixty-one without having read Rousseau's Confessions? Before coming to Vietnam, never knowing what I'll want to read while traveling,�I downloaded several free e-books of "classic" (in the advertising sense of the term) texts, The Complete Works of Jean-Jacques Rousseau among them.
I also filled the Kindle with more than a shelf-full of serious fiction and even some poetry (which seems wrong, somehow, as e-text), but during the long flight between Frankfurt & Singapore, the Rousseau somehow bobbed to the surface of the electronic sea. I think I may have begun reading the Confessions sometime earlier, perhaps as an assigned text in college, but I'd never got a sense of the man's voice until I was forty thousand feet above Central Europe. The text I have is that of the�Penguin edition, translated by J.M. Cohen. The English sentences are graceful and wonderfully fluent, catching what must be something of the conversational��style of the original. The author of the Confessions�is a sort of Prince Mishkin without the Russian angst.�Dostoevsky must certainly have read this book, what with his interest in Christ-like innocence.��I've been dipping into the text a bit each day, following the young Rousseau for a few of his adventures, and then putting him aside to return refreshed to other work.
What strike me most strongly about the Confessions is that every word & sentence is saturated with a kind of longing for the lost world of childhood. Even when Rousseau is presenting his own childhood, there is a strong elegiac feel to the descriptions, a kind of pre-nostalgia. The adult Rousseau looking back on his life, I think, is writing himself back to that state of innocence. It's a funny sort of innocence, too–that has a knowing quality about it. Mostly, though, we the innocence is perceptual and social. The boy Rousseau sees everything–including pretty young women–with an absolutely fresh eye; and this innocence of his observations of social relations is�devastating, laying bare�hypocrisy�without the least sense of the�judgmental. What a remarkable intelligence.
Poetry on the Brain: A Bittersweet Symphony
Talk about hitting my sweet spots — here is a blog about poetry and neuroscience! I think I found it via Don Share's (Poetry Magazine) Twitter feed. Comes at a good time for me, since I'm writing an essay that touches on poetry & brain science.

Natural way to improve iron levels
Posted by Reviewer1571613 on Aug 05, 2011
I can't take regular iron supplements, they make me feel sick. This product worked for me during one of my pregnancies when my iron was low. I'm using it again for the same reason.
Posted by Reviewer2758239 on Sep 21, 2011
i need more time to tell if it's good or exellent..
easy to digest

Work out well for those with sensitive stomachs.
Good stuff

Excellent price. Excellent product.
Probably good for me but disgusting taste and hard to swallow tablet
Posted by emanuela on Apr 28, 2014
I don't like tablets but this product came highly recommended, so I thought I'd try it anyway. * Good points: gentle on the stomach, no repeating/hurting stomach * Bad points: a)tablet - hard to swallow for some b) taste - It tastes rank if (like me) you have to chew it because you cannot swallow it whole. * Will try taking with a smoothie and will update this review later on with results.
Superior Iron Product
Posted by Reviewer2467763 on Jan 05, 2008
This is am amazing food based iron formula, one of the few of it's kind. Mega Foods is a top notch company. I have much more energy since taking this product and wouldn't be without it. I never have any problem digesting or absorbing this iron, as I did with other iron supplements. Highly recommended.

Reboots aren't too surprising to hear about nowadays. They happen so often that it's just become another Hollywood trend of sorts. So when they first announced that Pete's Dragon would be the latest to get the remake treatment, it wasn't too shocking to hear. Now they've found their perfect writer in David Lowery who is probably one of the hottest screenwriters out there right now.
Some of you may know the name David Lowery already, if you happened to be one of those lucky folk who went to Sundance this year. He wrote and directed Ain't Them Bodies Saints which debuted at Sundance to solid reviews. But not only is he an accomplished writer and director, but he's an editor too. He helped piece together Shane Carruth's critically praised Sundance film Upstream Color which some critics are still talking about now. It left that much of an impression on them. And now Lowery is expanding his writing by tackling a Disney family film. He'll be co-writing alongside Toby Halbrooks.
Pete's Dragon was a Disney live-action/animation hybrid movie that was released back in the seventies. It centered on an orphan and his cartoon dragon who took shelter with the lighthouse keeper's family in order to avoid his awful adoptive parents. The original was a musical but the remake won't be following those footsteps. There's no word as to who will be directing the picture as of yet.
Are you curious to see a Pete's Dragon remake?

11 Viral Photos That AREN'T Hurricane Sandy
Don't share these images from storms past, or storms that never existed.
It's very, very easy to accidentally spread misinformation on social media, especially when it comes to natural disasters — as shown by this oft-blogged image from a Brunei storm. Here are some pictures to watch out for in Sandy coverage.
This is often credited as Hurricane Isabel, but Snopes says it is not so: Its provenance is not known but some think it was a 2003 tropical cyclone in Australia.*
A photoshop job of the Statue of Liberty and a supercell thunderstorm from 2004 taken by photographer Mike Hollingshead.
This image is from a video called "Flooded McDonald's" once part of a French* art installation by the Danish Group Superflex. Not the real thing.
This Manhattan skyline fake has been floating around Twitter and Instagram today, but was originally on a Wall Street Journal post from 2011.
This photo was taken during a storm in September 2012, in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Crazy satellite picture…of Hurricane Ike.
Perfect Storm. From the movie.
Twitter jokes.
Instagram jokes.
Facebook jokes.
Updating as new photographs surface throughout the day, keep adding more in the comments!
*Corrected an earlier version that mistakenly attributed the first item to Hurricane Isabel. Thanks to Alex Ogle for the catch.
*Corrected an earlier version that incorrectly listed German not French. Thanks Alexj19.
*For some background on #2, check out this image. It only takes a few people to make a picture go viral, and then it's out of the original poster's hands!
- Donald Trump accused former Miss Universe Alicia Machado of being in a sex tape, calling her "disgusting." He's appeared in a softcore porn.
- The hair vitamins promoted by the Kardashians make "largely inaccurate" nutrient claims, according to lab tests.
- In a newly released video deposition, Trump implied he planned to call Mexicans "rapists" when he announced his presidential run.

okay, this is my 1st post. Now, maby u have heard the rumors about the Wii release date being october 2 (if not look it up, there is actually a lot of evidence). I am new to being a hardcore gamer ( just a couple of months ago i was a casual gamer) so i do not know how a new console works. I was planning on camping out of a store 10 hours be4 it came out so i could definetely get 1, because i know if i do not i will probably not be able 2 get 1 4 several months afterwards, due 2 other nintendo fans, the holiday season, and supply and demand. Sounds reasonable right? Well to my horror, october second is a monday. I have school on monday!!!!
If any1 has any imformation against this or sees that im missing a holiday PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!!!!!! thanks
please search before posting. this topic is everywhere so im going to close this thread. welcome to wiichat. im sorry your first post has to be closed, but we have too many like this topic.
When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much screwed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.
Madness does not always howl. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "Hey, is there room in your head for one more?"

text: Just FYI folks... Tomorrow - Thursday, April 28 - I begin a 7-city book tour to kick off the release of my new book: Motorcycling Alabama, Fifty Ride Loops through the Heart of Dixie. The book, published by the University of Alabama Press with additional funding from the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum - is the first and only Alabama-specific motorcyling guidebook. The fifty ride loops, which include both street and dual sport routes - are each between 75 and 150 miles in length and I have nearly 5,000 miles mapped in all. The tour - which the publisher has dubbed the "Roll Out Ride" - begins at an independent bike shop down the street from my house called About Bikes, where there will be plenty of Top Hat BBQ on hand for the 11 a.m.-1 p.m. book signing event. Other book signing stops on the tour include: Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Leeds - Thursday 4-6 p.m. Little Professor Bookstore in Homewood - Friday 10 a.m.-noon Motorcycle Safety Program in Montevallo - Friday 2-3:30 p.m. T-Town Motorsports in Tuscaloosa - Friday - 5-7 p.m. Goat Hill Museum Store in Montgomery - Saturday - 10 a.m.-noon Gnu's Room Bookstore - Saturday - 3-5 p.m. At each stop we're inviting anyone who wants to ride along to join us in riding to the next stop. More detailed information about the book and the Roll Out Ride tour is available at the book's website here. (click on the "Roll Out Ride" link). I know it's a Thursday but wanted to let fellow ADVrider members know about this and extend a personal invitation to come out and join us! Hope to see you there! I'll probably be the only one there on a Victory hack with two Golden Retrievers in the sidecar: Weather for all three days looks to be PERFECT! -David Haynes

Beautifully illustrated Harry Potter quotes
Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood. I really liked Luna in the books but Evanna made me love her. <3 More
Love Luna Lovegood, one of my favorites HP characters.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: Luna Lovegood finds Harry in his Invisibility Cloak in the Platform 9 3/4 Express Train.
Luna Lovegood. I can't read these without hearing Evanna Lynch's voice.
Living Like Luna Lovegood
Luna Lovegood. I always related to Luna when I started watching HP as a kid. She was so weird and comfortably different I just really saw her as a role model but at the same time saw myself in her. If that makes any sense what so ever.
"Luna Lovegood" by charlizard on Polyvore
Always be yourself. Unless you can be Luna Lovegood. Then always be Luna Lovegood.
