I'm a mother of 4 (11, 9, 3, and 4 months) and am in need of a mommy makeover. I am 30yr old/ 5'5 160lbs. I am looking into getting a breast lift and aug, arm lift, tummy tuck and lipo and upper inner thigh lift. Should I have a this done at once or break it up into two surgeries? I am scared to be put to sleep and that I will die. Should I be worried? And what do you suggest for the timing of the procedures? Thanks so much!
Scared of Anesthesia for Mommy Makeover
Doctor Answers 23
Scared of Anesthesia for Mommy Makeover
The risk of anesthesia in an otherwise healthy 30 year old female is very low but not zero. You can keep this risk at a minimum by not trying to accomplish to much on one day. I would not schedule a patient for outpatient cosmetic procedures lasting more than four hours, and so I suggest that you plan to do these procedures on two different days.
Scared about mommy makeover
The typical mommy makeover involves breast rejuvenation and tummy tuck, with some liposuction over the hip and thigh if needed. Adding an arm lift and inner thigh lift, or 'more' liposuction creates a worry. Not about the anesthesia, but the risk of complications such as DVT and serious infection. Staging your procedures only makes sense. Even your surgeon will have a hard time focusing for the best result with each procedure. I worry about your children too.
Best of luck,
Web reference: http://www.peterejohnsonmd.com
Mommy makeover
According to your BMI you are over weight. Loose about 15 LB. This will decrease your risks.
What decreases your risks also is a full clearance by your internist, includes complete history and exam, and full blood work. Choosing the appropriate surgeon, and anesthesiologist (Both should be Board Certified )
Plan to decrease your risks for blood clots.
Your best results will come from tummy tuck and lipo of the hips, flanks and medial thigh. Medial thigh may or may not need a medial thigh lift.
Second surgery is the breast.
As for the arms think first doing liposuction , you may not need the arm lift with its long unpredictable scar. If you can avoid it it would be great.
Choose your Plastic surgeon very carefuly. Patient safety must be on your mind and the surgeon's and the anesthesiologist.
If you really need a medial thigh lift , it can be done with the abdominoplasty, at your age you may not need it.
The facility where the surgery is done must be accrideted. Ask what are the safety measures to decrease your risks. Anesthesia risks are very low if you are completely healthy, However all procedures carry a certain amount of risk.

Anesthesia for mommy makeover.
I understand your concern. As long as you let your surgeon's office know about your ENTIRE health history and habits and you have a clean health history, you have nothing to worry about. #1 reason not to worry is that if you are going to a board certified anesthesiologist, they will let you know the maxumum time you can go under general anesthesia. You will be carefully monitored.
Web reference: http://www.bodysculptor.com/other-procedures-chicago/labiaplasty-and-mommy-makeover/
Minimize time in OR--- Minimize Risk
In your case, the combination of tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, thigh lift and arm lift may be overly aggressive.When these procedures are performed in combination, safety has to be the first priority.
For this reason, we believe that the length of the procedure should never exceed 4 to 6 hours.Complications from surgery increase significantly when these numbers are exceeded.An experienced surgeon and surgical team that focus on efficiency can minimize the length of the surgical procedure.Even when these steps are taken, it may not be appropriate to perform this many procedures at the same time.Under these circumstances, it's probably appropriate to stage these procedures.
If you're considering this type of surgical combination, it's appropriate to consult a board certified plastic surgeon.This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic findings and achieves your aesthetic goals.
Mommy Makeover Safety?
Your concerns are natural and commonly experienced prior to surgery.
Assuming you are working with a board certified plastic surgeon and board-certified anesthesiologists in a fully accredited surgery center/hospital ( and have had medical clearance prior to surgery) you will be extremely likely to have a safe procedure.
If I were you I would break up the planned procedures into 2 stages.
I hope this helps.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/Procedure_mommyMakeover.htm
Scared of anesthesia
It's normal and common to be a little fearful of anesthesia. But modern anesthesia, with a well-trained board-certified MD anesthesiologist or CRNA in attendance is very safe, when done in an accredited surgical facility. Most people have a very smooth wake-up from anesthesia, with a very low risk of issues or problems, provided their state of health is good.
You have an extensive list of procedures that you would like to have. Try to prioritize these, as it won't be possible to do them safely and well in just one procedure. I like to keep the length of anesthesia under 6-6.5 hours, for my patients.
All the best,
Anesthesia is safe for cosmetic procedures
As long as you're having your procedure done by qualified individuals, eg board certified anesthesiologists and plastic surgeons, you should be in good hands.
Web reference: http://www.BaltimorePlasticSurgery.com
Breast Augmentation, Breast Enlargement, Breast Implants
There are pumpers and splitters in the world. Some surgeons would combine everything and some would do as separate procedures. There is risk involved as the time under anesthesia increases. We are concerned about DVT. Just be careful and remember this is all elective surgery. There is always tomorrow.
Anesthesia fears
WOW! That is a lot of surgery to be done at once. If you were my patient, I would determine during your consultation visit which procedures could be safely combined in a staged manner.
Experience matters. With the number of procedures you are contemplating, seek a board certified plastic surgeon who uses a board certified anesthesiologist. This should help minimize your anesthesia concerns. Don't forget to review his before and after photos as well. Good luck!

New Year Resolutions For Miami's Best and Brightest
The world didn't end after all on December 21, so now we all gotta make amends for our bad behavior in 2012. Our New Year's resolutions last year all failed, of course, whether it was taking abuelita to church every Sunday or deleting our Facebook accounts because Mark Zuckerberg is a privacy-pirating prick. That's why January 1 is so glorious: We can wipe the slate clean.
Here are Riptide's 2013 resolutions for ten of our favorite local denizens.
Jeff Ireland
When a fan berates you during a game, call him an asshole to his face instead of muttering the insult under your breath. Ginger McWonderpants, it's time to embrace your role as the Miami Dolphins' franchise villain. Oh, and draft a stud wide receiver in the first round already.

Stop sending out news releases every time a trendy crime wave blows into Miami-Dade. No one cares that you banned bath salts or arrested Manolo from Scarface. We shouldn't be surprised that a city founded by circus midgets is desperate for attention, but it's just sad.
Giancarlo Stanton
Drink heavily and consider a Prozac prescription. This year is gonna suck, buddy.
The Beacon Council
Start running criminal background checks on the individuals who own or operate companies that ask for tax breaks. It's the only way you can avoid embarrassing stories about how you helped a company owned by a convicted cocaine trafficker and alleged deadbeat win approval for $400,000 in government tax breaks, as Banah Sugar owner Alexander I.

This is kind of a mix feeling for me. Have been using Cygwin for the past few years just to get something done faster than I can do it with Windows apps/tools.

Any idea how do I get I Heart Visual Studio sticker ?
Hmm... Mine were Ms. Word and PowerPoint 2003, Skydrive and PDF-XChange Viewer. I am still using all of them now even after graduating last year.
If I have to pick the most I relied on, I guess it would be Skydrive. I had a hard time to rely on flash disk, sometimes I would loss it on the lab and its size only 1GB. Skydrive also have integrated Office Web App, even though with limited functionality. So, thumb up for Skydrive .

As for Zune, I had tried to have 14 days trial for several times but no luck at all. Putting my mastercard details into it and got rejected because I'm in Australia but my hotmail account is US based. I do not want to create new account just only to try it. That's also applied to when I want to buy a game, so all my games in WP are free version . Why can't MS implement it in such a simple way?
I tried the Bing Blind testing few weeks ago and I can tell that it was not totally blind. I sort of knew which one was Bing or Google by looking at their looks. I noticed as well that Bing results on first and second test was on the right hand side. People tend to look at the top right so I don't know if it was a trick or just a mere coincidence.
Well, for technical queries, Google still is on top of Bing. Even though I pretty aware of that, I still use Bing most of the time. If I really cannot get what I really want then I will use Google.

R. Mayweather Rips Broner: Who The F*** Did He Beat?
By Chris Robinson
The boxing world is still buzzing over Marcos Maidana's upset victory over Adrien Broner this past weekend in San Antonio, Tex.
In front of over 11,000 fans inside of the Alamodome, Maidana fought a spirited and determined fight, as his power had great effect on his younger foe. Knockdowns of Broner were registered in rounds two and eight while several bludgeoning shots were delivered in many of the other frames.
When the dust had settled, Maidana has claimed a unanimous decision victory while Broner was left trying to cope with his first professional setback.
Swinging through the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas on Monday afternoon, there were several mixed reactions to the fight.
Outspoken former two-division champion Roger Mayweather admittedly didn't catch the action but seemed intrigued by what transpired.
"I heard he got his *ss whooped," Roger stated bluntly of Broner. "I haven't seen it, but I heard."
On June 25 of this year, a few days after Broner's split-decision nod over Paulie Malignaggi, Roger was asked if Broner had enough intangibles to be regarded as the future of boxing.
Roger was far from sold back then and is even more skeptical now.
"I can't even see how they going to say that he's the next boxing superstar," Roger stated. "Who the f*** did he beat? That's why I want to know. Who did he beat?"
The fact that Broner was occasionally compared to Roger's nephew Floyd, the sport's best fighter at the moment, seemed to give him an unrealistic platform to reach.
Continuing his criticism, Roger insisted that he knew all along that wasn't the case.
"He wasn't what people thought he was," Roger explained. "They thought he was the next Floyd Mayweather. Now that he got his *ss whooped, people are saying 'Oh, this motherf***er wasn't no Floyd.' I know God damn well he wasn't."
[QUOTE=Cupo303;14047778][SIZE="3"]I don't care who you are, you CANNOT compare Broner to Floyd. Even if you think that Floyd cherrypicks, he has cherrypicked enough good to great skilled fighters and proven that his style works on all of them. Broner's career…Comment by opotemo on 12-19-2013

VALERIE Kukla-Webb dived into the Schuylkill to try to rescue a man who fell or jumped in Monday afternoon and got within a few feet of him before he disappeared beneath the river's murky surface.
"I was probably about two strokes away," she said. "Then I looked back and he went under."
Police responded to call about a person in the water beneath the Walnut Street Bridge at 4:40 p.m.
As police marine units tried searching for the man, Kukla-Webb and Jonathan Granoff, two passersby who jumped in to try to save him, climbed out of the water and said they couldn't find him.

Hales Gallery
Coordinates: 51°31′27″N 0°4′26″W / 51.52417°N 0.07389°W Hales Gallery is an contemporary art gallery located in London's East End, representing a number of British and international artists. In nurturing young talent and steadfastly supporting the post-war legacy of Britain's pioneering black artists, Hales Gallery has marked 20 influential years on the London and international arts scene in 2012.
The gallery was founded by Paul Hedge and Paul Maslin in 1992, and successfully launched the careers of a number of emerging British artists at that time, including Jake and Dinos Chapman, Mike Nelson and Sarah Jones.The café at Hales became a social environment for local artists to exchange and develop new ideas.Both gallery and café were regularly written about in the art press, national and international newspapers and attracted worldwide media attention.
In 1997 Hales became a commercial gallery and started to represent artists from international backgrounds, including Tomoko Takahashi, Spencer Tunick, Hew Locke and Hans Op de Beeck. Then in 2004 the gallery moved from its original location on Deptford High Street to a new space designed by architects HawkinsBrown in the Tea Building on Shoreditch High Street.[1]
Hales Gallery has an ongoing programme of exhibitions with the art-work display changing every six-eight weeks. In its tenure the gallery has participated in numerous international art fairs including Frieze, Volta, the Armory Show and is also a regular participant of Seven Miami and as of recently Seven NY — alternative art fairs void of the traditional layout of gallery segregation into booths, instead focusing on a curated collective exhibition-like style of display.
Hales Gallery represents such artist as Frank Bowling, Michael Smith, Adam Dant, Hew Locke, Sebastiaan Bremer, Bob and Roberta Smith and Andrew Bick.[1]

SUNY Downstate Medical Center
Middle States Accreditation
Welcome Message from the President
Downstate is undertaking a comprehensive Self-Study as part of its upcoming accreditation visit from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.
This is an important accreditation for SUNY Downstate: Universities that are recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as being eligible for Title IV funding (financial aid for students) must be accredited by one of the nation's regional accrediting agencies.
Middle States asks institutions to closely assess themselves through the lens of 14 Standards of Excellence. As part of our Self Study, we at Downstate will closely examine our academic mission and how well we are doing in terms of continuous quality improvement and institutional renewal throughout all of our colleges and schools.
I have appointed Dr. JoAnn Bradley, senior vice president for philanthropy and vice president for academic affairs, and Dr. Jeffrey Putman, vice president for student affairs and dean of students, as Co-Chairs of the Middle States Self-Study, and Dr. Teresa Smith, clinical assistant professor of emergency medicine, as Deputy Co-Chair.
This is an opportunity for us to tell our story. I trust that as we move forward with the Self-Study, that the campus will strongly support this important project.
Very truly yours,
John F. Williams, MD, EdD, MPH, FCCM

Ladies and Gentlemen, Its been few months since last years festival and we are finally starting to see some headway down at the field.
So what now? Both Marc and myself have decided that now would be the perfect moment to take a break for 12 month's whilst we attend to elements in our lives which have seen some neglect due to our determination to bring you a bigger and better production each year.
The land could certainly do with a break to recover and much needed alterations and repairs are needed to provide a better experience in the years to come.
Some key members of our organisation face difficult challenges in the forthcoming months and our attention needs to focus on helping them through these difficulties. SIAF is not just a festival. We are a community of people who believe that the people within it are more important than the production we create. 12 months will give us the opportunity of reflection, planning and focus on direction. There are some who would say that taking a break now whilst we have such strong momentum is a risky business but we feel in our heart of hearts that to create a truly unique and special festival it is important to build strong ethical foundations and revisit them to maintain a purposeful and unwavering direction. Far too often organisers fall into the trap of following the herd until there is very little to differentiate one event from another. That is not what we are about. We have some incredible ideas that we would love to bring to SIAF which we believe would give those attending a truly inspiring experience but these take time to iron out and bring to the forefront of creation. In 2017 SIAF will once again open the gates to our little piece of utopia but it will look very different indeed!
For now though both Marc, myself and the family would like to thank you all once again for your support and wish you the very best throughout the remainder of this year and the whole of 2016. We hope that you enjoy many adventures along the way until we next meet in the summer of 2017 and hopefully the friendships that you have made through SIAF will flourish and bring you more fun to be had on your travels. We will endeavour to keep you updated with any developments as we continue on our planning process through this and the other pages throughout the next year but for now, stay safe, look after each other and remember that life is not a dry run.
With love
Mike, Marc and the SIAF Family.
If you have any questions please fill in our form below, and we will answer as soon as possible.
Thank you
or you can email us at firstname.lastname@example.com

Dr. Alexander Hollub has been identified as specializing in Family Practice.
Insurance plans and networks accepted by a doctor are not necessarily universal across all locations at which the doctor practices. This can be affected by many factors such as different group practices, hospital affiliations and working arrangements at those locations. Checking that the doctor you are visiting and the facility they are at are in-network providers for your insurance plan can save you money and headaches later from surprise medical bills.
Dr. Alexander Hollub accepts the following plans at 301 E Ovilla Rd, Red Oak, TX
A hospital affiliation covers any doctor who has an affiliation, association or admitting privilege with a hospital. A doctor's particular affiliation to a specific hospital can translate to the overall quality of that provider.

While there is no proven correlation between the quality of one's educational institution and the quality of one's professional competence, it is often an indicator. Medical schools have various levels of selectivity (some are harder to get into than others), and both the quality of their clinical training and level of research are measured. Additional medical training in both residency and fellowships and the facilities they are conducted at also provide a history of the doctors' level of training and experience.

Bug Reports
Strategy and Tips
Since I have seen no strategy articles covering armies yet, I've decided to come up with one, hopefully solving some of the misunderstandings about armies. This guide is for Conquests only, so many of these things don't count for vanilla/PTW.
What I am going through are the properties of armies and a few known bugs. Much of these info were gathered from different threads so thanks to those people.
This is mainly a newbie guide so some of it might seem familiar to alot of people. This article doesn't cover how to use the armies effectively -- only the basic properties and the bugs about them.
What I have been thinking about is a way to rush improvements and units in governments where gold is usually the way.
We all know the case: it's a democracy/republic and there is a lot of fully corrupted cities far out in the empire. The trouble is that those cities get a lot of population but the population is useless because all it produces will be corrupted. And we can't use them for poprushing... or can we?
I have actually found a way. After we have researched nationalism we get the draft ability. At that time we will be able to draft rifles and a little later infantry. The trick is then to use those cities to draft with. The units produced can then be disbanded for 20-22 shields depending on if it is a rifle or infantry. Poprushing gives 20 shields per citizen lost. That way citizens can be turned into production under rep/demo.
I've always wondered how the military advisor determines army strength and what's the meaning of weak, average and strong armies. After talking about it with Markstar, KingReno and Kemal I decided to do some test to determine the exact workings. So after some pondering how to do it I came up with a cunning plan (thank you Baldrick)
My hypothesis has always been that attack and defense values for each units are added to determine 'unit strength' and summed up over all units to determine 'army strength'. Still I'm not certain if a simple adding of stats is just it, so I have to figure that out. My suspicion is that hitpoints are also tied in the equation somewhere. I want to know the intervals that determine if you're army is weak, average or strong as well.
All test are done with C3C 1.15

Tim Lincecum wasn't dominant. He wasn't dazzling.
He was dogged and determined.
He also was victorious.
"Gutty effort," San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said of the work of his ace righthander in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series.
Phillies manager Charlie Manuel saw the same thing.
"He hung in there and he battled and he pitched pretty good," Manuel said.
Lincecum pitched well enough to get the win in San Francisco's 4-3 victory. He went seven innings, allowing three runs on six hits with three walks and eight strikeouts.
It was a grind-it-out game, not a masterpiece.
"Timmy threw outstanding," San Francisco rightfielder Cody Ross said.

- While it's a dark ride, it's also oddly endearing that Bond is willing to turn his back on MI6 and risk his life so much just to pay back Felix for all the aid he's given Bond over the years.
- Q showing his Undying Loyalty to James. Later, Bond telling him he would have been a great field agent. Of course, Q already proved that in Octopussy, but he basically only contributed a hot air balloon. In this film, he spends more time with Bond actively helping him on-site.
- One of the drivers actually stops to help his buddy out of a burning tanker in the climatic chase.
- At the end, Bond rejects Lupe's advances and instead joins Pam, who's been helping him throughout his escapades.
- The closing Meaningful Echo.
Pam: Why don't you wait til you're asked?Bond: Why don't you ask me?
- Bond looks down upon Pam throughout much of the movie, but in the end, after finally killing Sanchez, Pam shows up in a truck to take Bond home, and it's the first time since the beginning that Bond is genuinely happy:
Pam: Well, what are you waiting for? Get in!Bond: (smiling) Yes, sir!

The secret word for when you see a person with their thong showing, mostly on girls.
I see her T Hong, its bright pink!

Buttfloss underware. Girls wear them to make themselves look sexy and be "cool", but instead they look like trash especially when it is sticking out of their pants. Contrary to popular belief, they do not prevent you from having a panty line, but just give you a different one. they are basically panties that don't actually cover your ass which defeats one of hte main purposes of wearing underware.
"hey did you see that girl over there? she looks like total trash with her thong sticking out of her pants like that. if i ever wear one of those, shoot me."

My Surly Long Haul Trucker Touring BikeIn the weeks, months and hopefully years to come, I'm going to start yapping about touring, camping and all things "adventure biking." First thing up is of course the bike!
Welcome my Surly Long Haul TruckerWhen I started this build I originally started it as a short distance commuter. The front end was very upright and not very efficient for the long haul, no pun intended. As my commute and need for a longer, faster, ride I swapped out the front end of the bike for a mountain bike flat bar, Ergon grips and longer stem. The bike has been changed for a week and I'm really enjoying it. The first test will be a sub 24 hour overnight this weekend (S24o) when I ride to a nearby park to go camping.

Hi there. I had a problem when flying in a 737-700 and would like to know if anybody else has any information about this plane. A copy of the fax (w/ further information) that I sent to VARIG follows:
São Paulo, September 20, 1999.
VARIG - Via Fax
Re: Boeing 737-700 Right engine stops in mid-flight
Dear Sirs,
On August 29th, I left Congonhas Airport (CGH) on Nordeste (a company belonging to the VARIG group) Flight JH-342, on a Boeing 737-500, on my way to Salvador. Not very long after take-off, the captain said that there was an alarm going off in the cockpit and that we would return to Congonhas to have the problem checked out. He was fairly convincing, explaining that "our" cars also have lights on dashboards that go on inadvertently. He also said that we were returning just as a precaution and in a short while we would be in the air again. However, as soon as we touched down and began to taxi, we were informed that we would be put on another plane. In spite of the fact that the problems that I encounter flying are proportional to the number of flights I take, I follow a personal philosophy that says that everything that starts out wrong, ends up wrong, so, if I can quit, I do. So, I decided to pass on the flight, return home, and delay the trip.
Due to the failure of that plane, I ended up boarding in VARIG Flight RG-326 (GRU-SSA) on September 11th and, consequently, becoming one of the passengers of VARIG Flight RG-930, from Salvador (SSA) to São Paulo (GRU) on September 14th, when I faced a unique situation, not to mention considerable danger. Actually, I have flown an average of 50,000 miles a year during the last six to seven years and this was the first time that I have encountered such a problem.
After approximately 30-40 minutes of flight, a loud and dry sound echoed throughout the entire plane and the right engine simply stopped working. I don't need to say that in such a situation, which I never had encountered before, I was overcome with fear. Assigned to Seat 3A, editing a document in my notebook, my first reaction was to turn it off, place it securely in the seat pocket, stop by row 6, where my companion was seated, and discretely invite her to follow me as far back in the plane as possible, where I found two empty seats - a place where some air accident survivors have sat, according to the statistics.
Properly seated in the last row on the left side and pretty scared, I asked the flight attendants if they knew what happened and the answer was that they knew as much as the passengers. I asked them if they had experienced a similar situation and they said no. Minutes passed by, how many I don't know, but I imagine 10-15 until the captain, in a quick speech, stated that we had a problem in the right turbine and that we were returning to Salvador.
Thirty minutes of fear passed until our arrival at Luis Eduardo Magalhães Airport, thinking about the chances of the same thing happening with the other working engine, remembering a phrase that a teacher of mine used to say: " the pilot that has two, actually, has one, the pilot that has one, has nothing".
It was a time during which I tried to remain calm, literally "with my heart in my throat". Whenever I saw the flight attendants seated in the galley, I tried to talk with them to distract myself. By the way, these flight attendants deserve much more than the "Non-Stop Dedication" cards that VARIG sent me. Their calmness, the attention they gave everyone that called them, the briefings on the emergency doors.... everything was perfect! During the last announcement, something was included stating that everyone must remain calm since they were prepared for an emergency situation. They carried out their real role - safety agents, far beyond my demanding expectations. I give them my sincere thanks. If I could give to them, through this letter, "Non-Stop Dedication" cards, I would appreciate that you do this for me since these attendants did their jobs so well.
The shock was so great that I even preferred to let some time pass before composing this fax. Besides this, in order that I could supply/request more precise information, I wanted to learn more about the possibility of electronic equipment interfering with the function of the engine since my companion's "neighbor" (exactly to the side of the right engine) and I were using notebooks. Also, I remembered the suspicion that a cellular telephone was responsible for the reverse of one of the engines of a Lauda Air 767 in mid-flight causing the death of 223 people (http://www.rvs.uni-bielefeld.de/-ladkin/Incidents/LaudaAir/LaudaRPT.html). In the meantime, during my research, I discovered that in the last year, the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) recommended that American airlines that have Boeing 737-700s do a maintenance check, with the objective of fixing a part that shows wear, resulting in the failure of the right engine since two planes of this same model had the same problem in Russia and Norway during the past year (http://aafo.com/news/737/gbox.htm). The documents I've found also showed that FAA Officials were worried about the fact that the parts sprayed by the "problematic engine" could get through the fuselage and injure the passengers seated near it. As if this wasn't enough last year another American 737-700 had a different type of problem causing the engine to catch on fire between Tampa, Florida, and Birmingham, Alabama (http://www.seattletimes.com/news/nation-world/html98/altengi_070898.html).
Therefore, in virtue of the fact of this being a safety question, and there being too many coincidences with what happened with the first two cases of a sudden failure of the right engine during flight, I request that VARIG reply to this fax explaining what happened with its Boeing 737-700 (Flight 930 - Salvador/Buenos Aires [GRU-EZE]) on September 14, 1999.
I would like to further suggest that this company follow the example of United Airlines, regarding delays at Chicago O'Hare, and at least send a letter apologizing to those who were present on this flight and who are part of its frequent flyer program, i.e., its faithful clients.
I am sure that I can count on your prompt reply that will surpass bureaucratic barriers that surround a company of VARIG's size. I thank you in advance for your response.

DESOTO -- July 20th was a normal sunny day in DeSoto until it became anything but normal for former DeSoto Mayor Michael Hurtt.
"I couldn't get my legs under me and the room was spinning."
Hurtt collapsed in his bedroom. His wife Marylin rushed to his side and called 911.
"They told me to cross my arms as they were moving me from the floor to the cot and that's the last thing I remember," he says.
The first conscious memory was waking up in the Intensive Care Unit at Charleton Methodist Hospital. Six weeks had gone by.
"I knew nothing about what happened that whole period of time," Hurtt says.
Doctors had placed Michael in a medically-induced coma after diagnosing him with West Nile. The virus caused Encephalitis.
"It's evidently an inflammation of the nerves in your brain and it applies a lot of pressure and it can cause mental damage, stroke, seizures," Hurtt says.
Doctors told his wife to prepare for the worst.
"They said he may die or come out with paralysis."
All of this was caused by one mosquito bite.
"I never dreamed a mosquito would bite me with West Nile virus. I didn't have a clue," Hurtt says.
He adds that he's not sure when he was bitten, maybe while grilling or mowing the lawn.
Typically people with West Nile have a fever, body aches or flu-like symptoms, but he didn't have any of that before he collapsed.
"I hadn't felt bad. I went to work every day to do what I normally do," he says.
It took Hurtt weeks to be able to walk and talk again. He's been in intense physical therapy, he says, with some of the best doctors in the region.
The cost of treatment is well over a quarter of a million dollars, but he says he's blessed. Some people die from West Nile or have long-term effects.
"I know beyond the shadow of a doubt that God answers prayers. That was one thing that is kind of hard to describe, but I was at peace the whole time there."
For weeks churches, prayer groups and citizens have been praying for Hurtt. The popular former mayor who runs a funeral home in DeSoto gets teary eyed when he talks about the out pouring of support, the hundreds of cards and prayers.
"This community cares, I saw it with 9/11, I saw it with Hurricane Katrina, and Lord they have responded. I don't know how to say thank you properly."
Hurtt says he knows God spared his life for a greater purpose, maybe to spread the word about the dangers of West Nile.
"I am convinced the good Lord is not done with me," he says.
