Just got diagnosed with
Comments (7)
*hugs* I've been where you are. A bit over a year ago, I was just getting diagnosed as well. Like you, the symtoms fit what I'd dealt with all my life and all I'd been told to do to 'fix' it was to go on bc to regulate my cycles. It's frustrating that it wasn't found earlier, but on the other hand, they've found it now, and it's something 'fixable'.
I was so scared and heartbroken when I found out, but now I look back and I realize what a gift I've been given. PCOS is something that has the power to affect the rest of my life, but now I know about it! Now I know the effect it has on my body and now I can change that.
It's truly been a catalyst to changing my whole life. I've changed my lifestyle, my diet, and even the vitamins/supplements that I take. Through the change in diet and the help of metformin, I've lost 71 pounds, lowered my insulin resistance to nearly within normal levels, and improved my cholesterol.
*hugs* If you ever need someone to talk to, feel free to pm me! :)
Me: Teri, 37 DH: Anton, 31 TTC since June 2010 w/ PCOS, Hashimotos, MTHFR, Septum. Mom to 6 angel babies.
It is hard at first when you get the diagnosis but please know that a healthy and successful pregnancy is possible! I wish you nothing but luck on this journey.
I was diagnosed with PCOS yesterday and soooo glad I found this post. I felt like it's been there all along and my OBGYN wasn't really looking for why I was having a hard time conceiving and just put me on Clomid (which didn't work). I'm so angry becauuse if I had listened to my other friends who struggled with these issues all along and just went to an actual fertility clinic, I feel like I wouldn't have wasted so much time. I'm seeing a reproductive specialist now and she's recommending fermera with an IUI and taking progesterone. It's a huge committment and not lying, I'm terrified.
I was diagnosed with it on February 7th, 2011... don't think I'll ever forget that date. I had no symptoms except for an irregular cycle.
It's scary but it's treatable! With the right treatment you're just as fertile as the next woman. TTC was no breeze for us (3 rounds of Clomid and 2 of injectables, trigger shots, progesterone suppositories, countless trips to the doctor to get follicles measured) but in the end it was all worth it because here I am, expecting my first baby in a few months...

Saks' chief information officer Bill Franks retired at the end of last month. Under his leadership, the company replaced its aging point-of-sale system with new registers with Internet access and clienteling. As a result, store associates have been able to increase sales and the number of clients they serve, he said. Saks will not immediately replace Franks, who joined Saks in 2000 after 11 years with Neiman Marcus. Executive vice president Mike Rodgers will oversee IT and operations. "The company is in great shape and it's time for me to move on to the next phase of my life," Franks said. "I'm going to get my ranch and golf game whipped into shape."

Police: Man threw stereo at womanJanuary 21,2014Police: Man threw
stereo at woman
PITTSFORD A local man is jailed on $25,000 bail after he allegedly threw a stereo that hit a woman in the head Sunday, according to Vermont State Police.
Police said they arrested Jeffrey LaRouche, 35, Sunday afternoon not long after he called the police himself to report an altercation at 16 Furnace St.
At that address, police say an argument between LaRouche and his girlfriend, Jennifer Griffin, escalated into a physical fight when LaRouche allegedly hurled a stereo at the woman. Griffin was taken by ambulance to Rutland Regional Medical Center for treatment of what police called a moderately sized wound.
LaRouche, who police say was out of jail on probation for another offense, was arrested and taken to the Rutland jail where he remains pending arraignment on a charge of simple assault.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pending deal between the state and federal governments will give a big boost to...

The Houston street art scene might be as hot as its ever been. Alex Primo Lusters documentary about Houston wheat paste artists, Stick Em Up!, recently had its sold-out premiere at the River Oaks Theatre, and the director was profiled in the Houston Press earlier this month in a feature story by John Nova Lomax. Veteran graffiti artist GONZO247 was a producer on Lusters film, and hes unveiling his new show of solo work at his own Aerosol Warfare Gallery.
GONZO247 traveled to Nigeria earlier this year and street art fans are curious to see how that recent experience translates into the artists new work the reception will feature a slide-show of photos from the overseas trip. The shows title, Perplexed, is perhaps a riff on one of the materials GONZO247 utilizes: The work itself is being described as spray paint and mixed media on Plexiglas/plastic-acrylic canvas. Itll be on display through the summer months. Hours by appointment only. Through August 21. Aerosol Warfare Gallery, 2110 Jefferson.

Cudahy Carolers find heart of holiday, aina hey?
In the best of many wonderful moments in "A Cudahy Caroler Christmas," Alison Mary Forbes makes her appearance as Trixie, a mousy librarian auditioning for Stasch Zielinski's Cudahy choir.
Trixie can't sing a note - until downing half a bottle of mango-peach schnapps. Suitably fortified, the real Trixie moves into a clothes-shucking burlesque routine that liberates her body and unleashes Forbes' amazing voice. Forbes may be singing a sadistic librarian's fantasy about torturing patrons, but her Trixie is also gloriously - and uproariously - free. »Read Full Article(3)

Even in the field of medicine, things are more complex today than they were years ago. Dealing with a myriad of illnesses, diseases and other health issues that many time mirror the same symptoms, many people are at a loss as to where to go for treatment or proper diagnosis.
The good news is that medicine, surgery, pain management and treating mental challenges are being integrated and combine by many physicians into more holistic healing methods to better serve their patients.
One Center: Many Healing Pathways
Health facilities, such as those under the professional supervision of Dr. Bryan, M.D. in Santa Monica, California, offer those in need of treatment several resources to better orient patients as to the best pathway for healing for physical, mental, weight loss, HIV conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, nutritional deficiencies and pain management needs–all in one health facility.
An Integrative Approach
All treatment protocols offered through these superior one-stop medical centers are combined with the latest integrative medical and holistic methods known to modern science.
Especially where manual medicine is concerned, in-house chiropractic specialists utilize techniques that adhere to traditional holistic methods to recover from musculoskeletal disorders. Some commonly treated musculoskeletal disorders are whip-lash, trauma, injuries, sprains and arthritis among other illnesses. That being said, the success rate is astounding in many cases.
Such protocols offered by our specialists give patients hope so that they can once again experience and enjoy renewed vitality and re-enter a more active lifestyle.
Just What Is Integrative And Holistic Medicine
It is the newest trend in medicine and health restorative services: combining several aspects of medical protocol to better address the many facet needs of patients.
A system of health care that combines a cooperative relationship among all parties involved, physician, patient and even the family at times, optimal levels of physical, social, emotional and spiritual aspects of health are regarded.
Consequently, the whole person comes into play with all stated modalities of diagnosis and treatment–including drugs and surgery if the need arises. Education forms a vital part of the protocol as does affirmative action on the part of the patient with an increased responsibility placed on the patient's shoulders to cooperate with those attending to their well-being.
A quick visit to the website of said integrative and holistic medical centers is simply achieved with a click here or a phone call placed to the center's main offices.
Learn more detailed information today on how to address the whole person and the many treatments available to them to speed them on their way to restored health.
You might think that a drug test is only for those who are applying for a new job. While this is a common reason for drug testing kits to be used, there are other areas in life where it's important to know if someone is using drugs.
Some companies will perform a random drug test on every employee. Names are drawn through the year, and when that name is pulled, the person has to submit to a test. If the person chooses not to be tested, then a valid reason needs to be given. Some who don't take the test will likely be fired as this could be an indication that they are not being truthful in relation to drug use. If the company suspects someone has been using any kind of drug because of the actions at work or if someone has made statements about the person possibly using drugs, then a test will be given. When you apply for a job, you will likely be given a drug test. If you are under the influence or have drugs in your system, it's important to be honest with the employer. Honesty often works better than trying to hide something before beginning a new job.
If you are on probation, then one of the requirements might be that you are drug tested on a regular basis. Failing a drug test doesn't mean that you will go to jail or be violated, but it would not play in your favor if you were to go back to court or if you fail multiple tests in a row. Some states require those who receive government assistance to be tested before receiving benefits. If there is any suspected drug use while the person is receiving benefits, then the state could stop the benefits or make the person ineligible to receive them again.
Drinking water should be a task that is easy to do. In fact, it should not seem like a task at all. However, adults and children still struggle to receive drinking water they need each day. There are ways that people can take in the water that their bodies require.
A Beneficial Water Unit
When people are thirsty, they usually get a glass of water at a water cooler. Homeowners may get water from a kitchen sink. Children can get water at a drinking fountain. While all of these means of getting water can be helpful, the truth of the matter is that these devices can contain or even harbor dangerous germs. After all, some people are not very cleanly when they use a drinking fountain. When getting water from a water cooler, a dirty cup may touch certain parts of the cooler that in turn can make other people sick. Tap water can be fine to drink, but people have run water for a while in order to prevent large amounts of lead from being in it. Fortunately, there are beneficial water units that filter water safely. Furthermore, these units, such as a bottleless water cooler, are designed to prevent germs from passing from individual to another.
Bottled Water
Bottled water, or water in a bottle, can be another great way for people to receive safe water whenever they want it. Discount stores and other retailers sell millions of bottles of water each day. When people are out on the road, they can purchase bottled water at a gas station. While bottled water can be fine, some prefer to have water in a bottle. That means that individuals use a plastic bottle that they can safely reuse a number of times. The water can come from a beneficial water unit that stores water safely.
Drinking water can help a body stay healthy and strong. Water units and bottles of water are great ways that people can keep their thirst quenched. The result is that people can receive delicious water that is cool, safe and wonderful to drink.

First introduced in the 1980s, minimally invasive surgery has dramatically changed the way many surgical procedures are performed. Liver transplant surgeon Dr. Susan Lim has used minimally invasive robotic surgery techniques for many of the types of operations she performs.
A surgeon begins a traditional surgical procedure by making an incision that is large enough to expose the portion of a person's anatomy upon which the doctor will be working. The doctor widens the incision to provide an unobstructed view and full working access. Depending upon the type of surgery being performed, the surgeon might have to cut through bone and muscle.
Because of this process, traditional surgery can result in a longer, more painful recovery period. Although there are drawbacks to traditional surgery that can be eliminated or reduced through minimally invasive surgical techniques, not all surgical procedures lend themselves to the use of the small incision process.
Minimally invasive surgery begins with a small incision in which the surgeon inserts an endoscope–a camera and light at the end of a long, flexible tube. The projected image from the camera is displayed on a monitor the surgeon views while performing the operation. The surgeon makes other small incisions to insert other instruments used to perform the procedure. The incisions are normally one-third of an inch, but larger incisions might be required depending upon the type of procedure being performed.
Biomechanical companies have designed different types of endoscopes and surgical tools for use in different surgical procedures. For example, a laparoscope is an endoscope designed for abdominal surgery. Thoracic surgeons and heart surgeons use a thoracoscope to view the chest cavity.
Shorter recovery times, reduced scarring and a reduced risk of infection are reported benefits of minimally invasive surgery. Still, traditional surgical techniques continue to have a place in the operating room. The goal of a surgeon in performing any surgical procedure is to correct a problem as safely as possible by causing the least amount of trauma. Because the patient may spend more time on the operating table during minimally invasive surgery, certain procedures or circumstances may favor traditional surgical procedures.
The decision to use minimally invasive surgery is one that patients must make in consultation with their doctors. No surgical technique can be said to be right for every patient or for every type of procedure. Patients must make an informed decision when choosing some of the newest medical and technological advances.

There were many obstacles. Real-time satellite data isn't available without special government clearance, so the searchers were forced to use ocean images that were delayed by 24 hours. By the time they could work with it, the data would be two days old. Winds, tides, and currents would have moved Gray's boat even if they spotted it. "I decided I'd organize a group that would predict where an object would drift in that period," Bellingham says.
Antonio Baptista at Oregon Health and Science University and Yi Chao at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab, both experienced ocean surface modelers, tried to predict where a boat located somewhere between the coast and the Farallons might have drifted over several days. Working with different data sets, they came to a similar conclusion: If the boat had come to harm between the coast and islands, it would have been carried back toward shore somewhere north of San Francisco near Drake's Bay.
On Feb. 1, the first data available gave the group a look at patches of ocean south of San Francisco. It came from a NASA pilot flying a civilian version of the U2 spy plane, the ER2, which took off from Moffett Field and flew up and down the coast, its camera eye periodically collecting data. David Tennenhouse, a former manager of Amazon's A9 product search site, funneled the ER2 data into Amazon's storage service, where it was divvied into pieces by Mechanical Turk, experimental software that lets many people work on a task simultaneously.
Images that were 8,000-by-8,000 pixels in size were parsed into 400-by-400 "tiles" that were enlarged so volunteers could examine them for objects. Mechanical Turk automatically handled the distribution over the Web. Each tile was viewed and rated by three volunteers, and only those that got a high rating from all three would move to a second stage of review.
Even so, it was a mind-boggling task. There were 560,000 tiles, requiring 1.68 million viewings. A single tile consisted of 160,000 pixels of monochromatic gray; Gray's 40-foot, red-hulled boat would appear as a mere 6 to 8 pixels with a slightly darker gray tone. "There were more boats in the water than just Jim's," Vogel says. "It was hard to determine with any certainty which might have been Tenacious."
Nevertheless, word of the effort spread, and the task was completed in three days by 12,000 volunteers. Tennenhouse, in charge of coordinating the image data search, groaned at the prospect of thousands of people viewing the ER2 flight data via Mechanical Turk. But the volunteers had examples of what to look for, and some became skilled at distinguishing between a discoloration representing a wave pattern and one representing an object in the water. When a boat was detected, some tried to determine whether a wake could be seen behind it. (A wake indicated a boat under way as intended; they were looking for one adrift.)
At first, the volunteers wanted to identify every object down to the size of a dinghy, in case Gray had to take to the sea after Tenacious sank. But the resolution of the flight data wasn't good enough to pick out a dinghy without thousands of false hits. Tennenhouse insisted that the focus stay on a 40-foot boat.
At that point, Gray had been missing for nearly 10 days. If he was in a dinghy, his survival prospects were poor to nil, given the cold ocean temperatures and lack of fresh water. If he was still on the sailboat, his chances were much better. "We had to throw away some targets. A dinghy couldn't really be distinguished from noise," Tennenhouse says. "My team had to focus on positive outcomes."
As Mechanical Turk turned up targets, called "possibles," Gray's Microsoft Research colleague Tom Barclay was arranging flights by civilian pilots to go check them out. Sending pilots with a spotter 70 miles offshore was itself a risk, so decisions on what to pursue weren't made lightly. As 15 to 20 possibles accumulated, Navy image analysis experts helped determine what they might be. Locations were plotted using the drift trajectories developed by Bellingham's group.
"The Pacific Ocean is a very big place," says Barclay, who worked with Gray in the development of TerraServer, a database of satellite earth images. "Obvious, I know, but it is really hammered home when you try to 'mow it' with low-flying, fairly slow aircraft."

A TROUBLED Thamesmead housing association has joined forces with a larger housing group.
Gallions has become part of the Peabody Group which now owns and manages 27,000 homes across London.
The Thamesmead-based association has a new five-strong board to replace the one which stepped down in December.
The move came because Gallions had been reprimanded in a report by the Homes and Communities Agency over a "lack of transparency" in awarding outgoing chief executive Tony Cotter a £397,000 payoff.
The same October report also ruled Gallions had breached gas safety regulations putting tenants at risk.
A group of Thamesmead residents has been in dispute with the association over estate and maintenance charges they say are too high.
New Gallions chairman David Avery said: "This is a new start for Gallions.
"There is no doubt this has been a challenging time for the organisation.
"The immediate focus of the new board will be to look at all of the issues facing homeowners and tenants and to ensure that residents are happy with the quality of services we provide."

PS3's are now $699 from what I know, but have lost some features like backwards compatibility
thank god he won. i can't see why anyone would want howard.
as for the speech - of course it was long. he's the new ****ing prime minister of one of the most important countries today. as for his wife... she's not ugly. you, sir, are a child.
i really want a 360 and ps2 or ps3. what have the ps3's gone down to in price?

Well, I'm ecstatic that Rudd won. Howard was retiring, AND Costello would have become PM if the Liberals one. And that's not cool. I hated how people were going on about how great Costello was. Well, the Libs on 7 were going on about it. I was really waiting for those guys to have a punch up - I swear they got close a few times. There was this really annoying Lib on the end that kept trying to have a biff with the guy that looked kind of like the thunderbird newsreader from Ten (You know, he does random weather?... Wait a minute, nobody here WOULD know him, I think he's only for the North Coast area).
Anyway, the fact is we needed a change. And yeah, Rudd's wife was nodding and smiling next to him, but so what? It's not like he could leave his wife & children at home.
Did anyone notice that Channel 7 cut off the woman running for Benneelong as soon as she mentioned a kid from Pakistan? I'm sure they just ran out of time, but yeah.
maxine mckew. yeah they did cut it off. a little bit... hmm. if you know what i mean.Originally Posted by Ekiushi

I think they only cut her off because Costello was about to make his speech? I can't remember exactly. I'm also glad Kevin won, I really think he has great policies for this country and the world. Ekiushi I don't know why you don't like Peter Costello, I might actually prefer him to John Howard.
To be honest, I didn't want either to win. Rudd just doesn't seem like a leader to me. Probably because I used to watch him on Sunrise before he was Shadow PM or whatever. And he sung that song and was silly alot of the time. And John Howard, as people already said he was gonna retire in term which was silly, he should've just let Peter Costello be PM around APEC time, then they could've lost and not had any of this silly talk. And maxine Mckew, omg. The crowd clapped at every word she said and she paused all the time and she hadn't even won yet, that's why they cut her off.
Backwards compatability is just so that the PS3 can play PS2 games, not sure about PS1 though. Like the DS being able to play GBA games and wii with Gamecube. But seeing as it didn't sound like you had a PS2 meaning that you have no games for it. There might be no need to worry about backwards comaptability. Unless of course you want to get PS2 games to play on the PS3, but seeing as any of this is too much out of your pocket. There's no need for anything about this. But I typed it anyways. Now I'm just blabbling on....blah blah blah blah........Blah.
In bed by eight...home by eleven
shit, well if it can't play ps2 games as well i don't want it. i might just opt for a ps2. how much could i pick one of those up for? would getting a second hand one be good or ultimately ...detrimental?
ps: i was all for labor, greens or democrats. labor is very similar to lib. but you've got to go for the lesser evil. to me, lib is too business orientated. we can still have a thriving economy without such an unfair tip of the scales. also, i seriously don't want nuclear power. and i definatly want the Kyoto protocol ratified as soon as possible. something has to be done about drugs, too. and uh, gay rights.

My dislike of Costello actually has nothing to do with his policies or anything like that. I often develop dislikings towards people for no real reason. But I do have a reason for my dislike of Costello (kind of surprising actually). Its just that he tries to be funny and fails. I remember one scene in particular where the Chaser's followed him around in their 'No Gary No' Ad Road Test, and Costello tried to... err play along (or something) and he just wasn't funny. God knows what he was trying to do, but he annoyed me. And that was just ONE attempt at being funny. There's been other attempts... Anyway, that's one of the reasons why I dislike him.
Oh, and I hate the smug looks politicians give. In one of the ads, they had Morris Iemma (I think I've forgotten how to spell his name) with this infuriating smug look on his face. I wanted to smash him. Of course, Rudd couldn't stop smiling during his speech - but I actually like Rudd. I like his voice. It's probably not a good way to judge people, but If I like their voice I tend to like them too. Tom Cruise for instance - smug, I hate his voice, tries to be funny (sometimes), and tells Channel 9 reporters 'You've crossed the line', only to jump on Oprah's couch over the same kind of question a few days after...
I think I got distracted there. Oh, and Maxine McKew (thanks to owlsgo for giving me the name - I didn't feel like googling it to find out), yeah she kept stopping, but yeah, that was because everyone kept cheering her. Goddamn those North Ryde people. I've been to that RSL. And had I been in Nth Ryde, despite my support for Labor - and by extension Maxine, I would not have been down there. Seriously, I would have loved to be the ones that voted Howard out of his chair (if he does lose), but I'm still not going to be down there cheering Maxine on! I'm more of the type that throws insults and cheers at the TV. But hey, if she gets elected - that's great. How long has the area been Liberal? My Father (from Nth Ryde) says it's been Liberal as long as he can remember.
But anyway, more importantly I need to find out who won the Seat of Richmond! Bloody Dr. Sue Page better not have won.
Seeing as we are on a gaming forum I thought I might post some gaming news!
Well, it really only relates to me, but I preordered Galaxy today from JB, free guide here I come!
And to owlsgo, you can pick up PS2s these days for around $150, better just to get a new one IMO.
That is all...

Scrabble Player Guilty of Cheating
In an unprecedented case, a Scrabble player has been judged guilty of cheating in an international tournament and banned for 4 years from competing in rated competitions
Mohammed Zafar, Bahrain and Gulf champion, has been found guilty "after due consideration of statements from all parties involved and witness accounts," said inquiry chairman Allan Simmons (Britain). The panel's work took about five weeks and produced 17 pages of testimony.
The four-member panel was set up swiftly at the conclusion of the seventh Causeway Challenge in Malaysia in early December.
The Causeway Challenge is considered the world's biggest team Scrabble contest with 50 high-rated players.
Event organiser Michael Tang immediately expelled Zafar midway in the tourney, saying that he was banned for life from taking part in future Causeway Challenges.
Simmons underscored that the inquiry was "set up to investigate and ensure fairness in the accusation of cheating."
The ban is effective immediately and valid until January 1, 2013. The inquiry would have considered reducing the length of the ban if Zafar had admitted to cheating when presented with the inquiry findings, Simmons said.
The inquiry panel recommended that Wespa rules and tournament subcommittees consider advice and guidance to competition directors in handling incidents of cheating or suspicious behaviour. Moreover, such counsel should also go to players in the form of rule improvement.
Simmons asked that the Wespa tournament committee establish a framework for banning players for various offences.
The inquiry chairman requests all national Scrabble organisations to follow the Wespa-authorised ban of Zafar, aged 19.
The same inquiry panel should be employed for future incidents of cheating where the accused denies the accusation, specifying that no one should be on the panel from the same country as the accused.
"The methodology used assured that the various parties were heard and their testimony evaluated.
"The findings have been well founded," Kietzman said, "with a conclusion that reflects the realities of the incident.
"The integrity of international Scrabble has been maintained, and Wespa now has a precedent for addressing such issues in future although we hope there won't be any need."
Wespa is the regulatory authority for the playing of Scrabble in English where, among hundreds of millions of players, about 25,000-30,000 are competitive players. The game can be played in about 30 languages.
# # #
Wespa is the regulatory body for Scrabble players in the English language with an estimated 25,000 competitive players in upwards of 40 countries. The association concentrates on youth, dictionary, rules, tournament format, communications matters.

In addition to swimming, our shark will need to open and close his mouth. Now to make this happen we're going to need to create something called a rig. Now anytime you hear the word rig in relationship to an animation inside of 3D applications like CINEMA 4D or any other application, it really relates to a set of controls that are used to make your object do something specific. Now those controls could be very complicated or they can be very simple. Now in the case of our shark their controls are very simple. What we need to do is to create a relationship between the movement of the jaw geometry for the actual shark body and the rotation of the gums.
I've have done this ahead of time and I can show you guys what I'm talking about here. On the shark geometry, which is this cube body right here, I have something called a Morph tag. The Morph tag allows us to create a state of geometry that reacts to a slider. I'm going to of a switch my Morph tag over to Edit mode and click on the word Open here. The Open is what's called a morph state, and when I do that, you see that my geometry actually pops open. This morph state is a direct manipulation of the original base morph state. So what I did was I took the points of the shark model and moved them around to get his mouth to actually open. Now when I switch to Animate mode, I have now a slider that is linked to that state.
When I move that slider, the shark mouth opens and closes. Now you'll notice that the gums are actually moving along with it and what I've done for the gums is I've added something called an XPresso tag and this XPresso tag, when you double-click on it, it brings up the XPresso Editor. You can see that this node here represents the Morph tag and I've linked the open slider to something called a Range Mapper, which translates the values from the open slider into rotation values that are linked to the lower jaw symmetry object. So, by moving the slider on the Morph tag, the values here from 0 to 100% get translated into rotation parameters that will move the shark's mouth open and closed.
That's really all there is to it. The rig process can become very very time-consuming and intensive, but for our shark, this is really all we need. Now I've prepared this shark ahead of time, but in this chapter we're going to go back a step and really recreate this rig from scratch.

Obama's Campaign Confirms It: The News Was Booted Off the Plane
On Politico.com this morning, Obama spokesman Bill Burton confirms Matt Drudge's post concerning the campaign's giving The Dallas Morning News -- along with the New York Post and The Washington Times -- the heave-ho from the campaign plane. Says Burton: "We're trying to reach as many swing voters that we can and unfortunately had to make some tough choices, but we are accommodating these folks in every way possible."
The Times ain't too happy about getting the boot: "This feels like the journalistic equivalent of redistributing the wealth," says executive editor John Solomon. The News is a little more understanding: "We think the Obama campaign's decision is to some degree more a function of limited seats, and while we're a large regional newspaper, we're not national and we're not in a swing state." --Robert Wilonsky
Update: More from ABC News, concerning the theory that Obama's people kicked off The News and the two other papers due to their respective McCain endorsements: "Fox News and the Wall Street Journal still have folks on the plane, it has been pointed out. One of the reasons there are fewer seats on 'O Force One,' of course, is because months ago they ripped out coach seats for the staffers up front replacing them with First Class barcalounger-esque accommodations."
The Post, of course, is delighted with the campaign's doings. Says editor-in-chief Col Allan, "We are happy to be on the outside looking in. It's what makes The New York Post special. We are not in the news business to be liked." The paper will report the rest of Campaign '08 from the mountains of Preston Hollow.

TravelPod Member ReviewsCourtyard By Marriott Kansas City Country Club Plaza
What fun to stay in a gracious hotel set elegantly within an Historic Register building. The location right at Kansas City's famous Country Club Plaza, with a green and shady park for a morning run right across the street, couldn't be better. After four long days on the road, we were most appreciative of the patient kindnesses of the desk staff, the safe car parking lot .... and popcorn right there at registration. There was an annual Arts Festival happening at The Plaza, so the hotel was completely full, but our room was a quiet and serene oasis. Coffee and scones outdoors on the hotel's patio -- while our laundry was washing and drying in the hotel's complimentary laundry facilities -- set the scene for a needed day of relaxation. We stayed an extra day!

Historical Traveler Reviews Courtyard By Marriott Kansas City Country Club Plaza
Un precioso hotel boutique: fantástico para un fin de semana "de chicas"
Pas� aqu� mi cumplea�os (el 10 de febrero) con mis dos hermanas y mi madre. Nos alojamos en una suite Double queen, muy espaciosa.
La ubicaci�n es ideal. Puedes caminar hasta el Plaza y llegas en dos minutos. Es un hotel verdaderamente precioso. Est� decorado con mucho gusto y es muy atractivo. Puedes registrarte temprano y el desayuno es maravilloso. Se puede aparcar cerca y sin dificultades. No hay gastos ocultos. El personal es fant�stico.
Beautiful Boutique Hotel - Great For Girl's Weekend Out
Stayed there on my birthday - 2/10 - with my 2 sisters and my mother. Double queen suite - plenty of room.
Perfect location. You can walk to the Plaza in about 2 minutes. It's a really lovely hotel. Beautifully decorated and very inviting. They allowed early checkin and the breakfast was great. Parking is easy and close. No hidden charges. Great staff.
We'll stay there again.
Strange smell...
smelled like a hundred bottles of Lysol were dumped in the lobby - quite overwhelming--- and the background music that is played everywhere is quite obnoxious
Great Experience
We are from St. Louis, traveled to Kansas City for a romantic weekend at the Plaza without our kids. We couldn't have been happier with this hotel.
We normally stay at either The Rafael or the Ritz (now the Intercontinental) at the Plaza, but both were booked.
This property is a renovated apartment building, so it's unlike any Courtyard that I have experienced. Feel much more like a boutique property.
We had a very large 1 bedroom suite with separate living area for $129 a night. Standard rooms were $109. Our two night stay with taxes and $60 in drinks/movie charges was $350. Parking is free.
The staff was very helpful and professional. Very.
The property itself is just on the outside of the Plaza, within walking distance (1/2 block). If you go, try either Re:verse for dinner or M&S Grill for drinks at the bar.
The restaurant is not full-service, just breakfast and snack around happy hour. We did not eat there, so can't offer an opinion. The bar is very small, but efficient. I am told, however, they plan to go full service after the first of the year.
We would certainly stay there again.
Wonderful Hotel!
We stayed here for our one year anniversary, and this hotel was perfect for us! The location was good within walking distance for everything we wanted to do on the plaza. Some things on the plaza required a little bit more walking than we thought but overall a great location. The hotel staff was very friendly, the hotel was very clean.
Wonderful Location, Wonderful Rooms, Wonderful Hotel
This hotel opened in April 2006 and is a top quality 3-star hotel. 3-star based on the services and amenities. It's very well decorated in a renovated historic building. Rooms feature flat panel LCD televisions in HD which almost makes you want to stay in. It's literally a block from the Country Club Plaza, which makes you want to spend as little time in the room as possible.
The beds are the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept on, and the rooms have incredible views. The pool is acceptable.
Bathrooms are very clean and have all the necessary amenities, even a little seat at the end of the tub if you need it. Plenty of storage space and the king rooms even include a nice couch. Other hotels would call this room a suite.
Fantastic Place to Stay
This is a brand new hotel, just opened in May 2006. It is an historic building, built in the '20's for apartments but recently restored into a hotel. The staff was excellent, very friendly and helpful, truly going above and beyond. Kathryn at the front desk is as friendly as any hotel employee you will ever meet.
The breakfast is excellent with cooked to order omelets, make your own waffles, biscuits and gravy, and more.
The pool is relatively small and outside but heated to 84 degrees and still nice. Indoors is a small fitness center and a nice hot tub.
The rooms are great, very spacious and all have a widescreen, flat panel TV with free HBO.
Right next to The Plaza so just walking down is super easy and well worth the time, not to mention that the Plaza area is loaded with great restaurants and shopping.
Boutique Hotel at it's finest
What a buitiful remodel. I had the best weekend. The location is so conveiant and the hotel is fantastic. The front desk staff went above and beyond. They were extremly friendly and remembered your name. The night supervisor Kathryn is an absoulute treasure. She had great dinner recomendations, directions, and map. She was so upbeat and happy, you coud see it was contagious. GREAT FLAT screen T.V.'s. Lobby is lovely. Great Place. Will definetly be back.
Mystical Romance
Rolling down JCNichols Drive we happened upon the Courtyard. It caught our eyes because of the historic ambiance. The staff was exceptional - helpful in every way, from the front desk to the breakfast wait staff. The room was so romantic as we opened the sheers of the huge picture window to see the park and fountain. Step out the front door to relax on the patio or venture a few steps to the Plaza. Outdoor swimming was a pleasant way to relax after a full day of activites as it was open late. Elegant bathroom with plenty of space.The bed was so inviting with its downlike quilt and pillows galore - like sleeping on a cloud. We've never had such a night's sleep! Breakfast is served at the hotel, and what a fantastic spread they offered - from individually made omlets to fresh fruit. A fabulous romantic get away.
Best hotel in KC!
I stayed at the Courtyard Marroitt on the plaza. My plans changed quickly and I needed to stay in the city overnight. The hotel is a restored building, but doesn't have that "old" feel that some hotels do. The rooms are very large and comfortable. The decor and furnishings are excellent. A business center and small lobby bar are convienient and the location of the hotel is the best in the city. The front desk staff were exceptional! Could not have stayed in a nicer place. Will definetly go back!

Day 2: Grabbin' BBQ in KC
We figured being in Missouri we needed to stop by Kansas City for some amazing BBQ since the city is known for it!! We stopped at.... We ordered 4 huge meals and shared between the four of us!! We don't think we could eat at another BBQ place again that is how good it was!!

Plaza Centre, Kansas City
Switched hotels today for a better deal and the hotel is so nice and on the Main Street. This area is called The Plaza and seems to be the city centre although it feels more like a posh town. Lots of big and little fountains everywhere, really nice buildings and lots of flowers. Nice shops - bought another pullover to keep warm! There were a couple of musicians on the street and a couple of street magicians. Had quite a lazy day and a day of food. By the time ...
Kansas City, Missouri
... Fair outside and down the street, so we never went in as we got distracted by Bratwurst sausages and beer that they were selling and took a walk around the fair. It was next to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art which has lovely grounds and outdoor sculptors. The Kepler did too actually. Really nice area. We popped in and got kicked out shortly afterwards as it was late. It was free and pretty cool, so we may go back ...

The best doctor for menopause I have ever known.
Dr Quigley is a leading HRT MD. I have driven 150 miles round trip to be a patient of his for the last 18 years. Unfortunately he doesn't accept Medicare - that's the only negative comment I have. I seldom recommend physicians, but I can do so in this case without any reservation whatsoever.
The title says it all. He does not listen or put his patients at ease in my experience. He cares only for what he thinks he knows. There are other ...
His specialty is Gynecological Endocrinology: hormonal imbalance, pre and post menopause as well as routine gynecology. He believes in fine-tuning medications based on lab studies; not just one pill strength fits most. Willing to continue to pursue something until positive results are achieved. I have been seeing Dr. Quigley for at least 15 years. I am an RN and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
he is the best! So compassionate and caring and takes all the time you need. Truly a god send.

used to transmit quality video streams?
Set-top box manufacturers are indeed very interested in wireless transports for A/V distribution within home networks. Digital video requires 3-20 Mbps, depending upon quality. Transmission over 802.11b is possible, but 802.11a is a better candidate for video streaming.
Upcoming 802.11e QoS standards will also help to improve the quality of video over wireless by letting WLAN operators prioritize traffic into classes of service and establish direct flows between sending and receiving devices on the same BSS.
Set-top manufacturers are hoping that their set-top boxes become residential multi-media gateways, combining data and video reception, recording, and distribution within the home. For example:
- Motorola's Broadband Media Center (BMC) 9000 is a Personal Video Recorder (PVR) that works with Motorola's DCT2000 set-top box, distributing content to TVs throughout the home over coaxial cable or wireless LANs.
- Sharp's "Smart Link" wireless digital video system uses 802.11b to send digital video signal from video sources (DVD, VCR, or PVR players) to receiving devices (in this case, Sharp's AQUOS Liquid Crystal TV).
- Scientific Atlanta's Explorer 4200 Home Gateway combines cable modem and analog/digital tuner features in a single box, providing in-home video distribution over USB, Ethernet, 802.11b, or HomeRF wireless.
These are just a few examples. Note that these companies represent markets that were once distinct -- set-top boxes, video recorders, home entertainment systems, and residential broadband gateways. Set-top boxes have been promising to become bigger, badder, and better for nearly a decade now. However, increasing popularity of PVRs, falling 802.11 prices, and growing cable modem deployment may finally create a real consumer market for "all in one" set-top boxes. It will be interesting to see who wins this competition for the home consumer ? the PVR companies that understand video storage, the set-top companies that have established relationships with CATV providers, or the broadband gateway companies that understand IP networking.
