Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Too much insulin can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). This effect may also occur if you do not consume enough calories. The symptoms include chills, cold sweats, blurred vision, dizziness, drowsiness, shaking, fast heartbeat, weakness, headache, fainting, tingling of the hands/feet, or hunger. It is a good habit to carry glucose (sugar) tablets or gel to treat low blood sugar. If you don't have these reliable forms of glucose, raise your blood sugar quickly by eating a quick source of sugar such as table sugar, honey, candy, or drinking a glass of fruit juice or non-diet soda. Tell your doctor immediately about the reaction. To help prevent low blood sugar, eat meals on a regular schedule and do not skip meals.
Too little insulin can cause high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). Symptoms of high blood sugar include thirst, increased urination, confusion, drowsiness, flushing, rapid breathing, or fruity breath odor. If these symptoms occur, tell your doctor immediately. Your treatment plan may need to be changed.
This medication may cause low potassium levels in the blood (hypokalemia). Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: muscle cramps, weakness, irregular heartbeat.

UTSA Satellite Space presents 'Figure and Illusion'
By Connie Swann
Graduate Student, Department of Art and Art History
(Sept. 15, 2008)--The UTSA Department of Art and Art History hosts the photography exhibit, "Figure and Illusion," through Sept. 21 with works by Susan kae Grant and Kenda North. Grant uses haunting black-and-white images to depict the dream state, while North's color photos demonstrate the tension of weightlessness and entrapment.
Free and open to the public, the exhibition is at the UTSA Satellite Space, Blue Star Arts Complex, Suite 115, at South Alamo and Probandt streets in the Southtown district.

Susan kae Grant is a professor and head of the photography department at Texas Woman's University. From the series, "Night Journey," Grant composes a series of intriguingly haunting large-scale images that recreate the fragmented and multi-sensorial experience of dreaming. The inspiration for the project came from the artist's desire to conduct an inquiry into the subconscious dream state, which led to her experiences as a subject in a sleep laboratory. To create the gestures and narratives inspired by the dream recordings, Grant photographs shadows of models and props in the studio.
Kenda North is a professor of art at UT Arlington. The large-scale images from her "Water and Weight" series serve as metaphors for emotional tensions and the daily struggle between liberation and constraint. Her figures move through a blue field of water, either celebrating a form of weightlessness or caught by a net and trapped.
UTSA Satellite Space hours are noon-6 p.m., Friday-Sunday, or by appointment. For more information or an appointment, call the gallery at (210) 212-7146 or contact Connie Swann, Department of Art and Art History, at (210) 458-4391.

After a man has came inside a woman, a different man or woman goes down on the woman. Thus, receiving a creamy hair pie in the face.
by gibby2k May 20, 2008
This is a move created for the up-tight women who think they are gods gift to the world created from Dallas, TX. During a blow job, when a guy is about to go, she refuses to swallow or have you go in her mouth. Some women even go to the extent to say "I dont want that STUFF anywhere near me," well this is for you girls. When you are releasing your load, go in your hand. Without her knowing it rub it in her face. A swirling motion gets the best results, and smacking it on her face is for the brave at heart.

text: We're at 15 wins right now. The team picking 9th also has 15 wins...they just have less losses. May be time to adjust our lottery goals. The 8th seed of the playoffs has just 3 more wins than we do. It is nice though to see the team play well. Stuckey had the kind of stat line, and game that could put a smile on my face.

Hi everyone,
I tried to post a thread yesterday, but somehow it got lost, probably because of my typing between the keys. Today I see that jsbyers posted with a question almost identical to the idea I had. So I'll follow the answers to his post with great interest. Thanks js.
I probably have too many questions but I got the call for moving the hive just long enough ago to move it and spent the time working on prep for doing a trapout rather than researching trapout procedures. Well I did watch trapout videos and looked closely at the Hogan trap a few months ago. Thanks Cleo.
Then to further confuse me I went to observe the water heater hive yesterday about 4:30 just in time to see it swarm. It went about 100 yards and landed around a tree limb too high to reach and much too large for me to shake. I spent the remainder of the time I had in the next hour getting lures set near where the swarm landed. I'll still try the trapout of the water tank hive. I saw some bees at the entrance of the tank, so if those are still there in another day or so I have a trapout to do.
And - I'm having a really bad back week so its hard to recuperate, research, prepare for bees and scratch a load of chiggers all at the same time. I'm though crying now. lol
Another question. I have a first year hive which came into an 8 frame medium lure May 20. Its now July 25. I don't know if my hive is strong enough to sacrifice a frame of brood to entice a trapout hive to stay in the new hive they're being offered. Are there some guidelines for me to follow to determine that?
Also, how can I tell when the hive being trapped out is finished leaving? I know the number of bees will decrease coming from the hive being trapped. Should I leave the hive and trapout devices in place long enough for the brood in the hive being trapped out to hatch?
Also, the old established hive is in a water heater. I moved the hive to a new location so I can work on it. Should I try cutting the metal tank apart to try salvaging the contents?
Sorry for so many questions, but I had no idea a trapout situation would arise so soon in my early beekeeping days.
Thanks to you all for your input,

Edelman would be a great pickup for us.
Edelman would be a great pickup for us.
I like Edelman. I'd kick the tires on that one. I think he's got value.
could be the next brady to welker 120 reception a year type match up but with eli and elderman. or cut during preseason lol
With Cruz supposedly(who knows for sure) asking for 10-11million annually for 2seasons of production, and hsi 2nd being nearly half the proudction he had from his first, u never know? Reese is no dummy, he seen guys like Amani, Nicks, Steve Smith all be monsters for us, and maybe is thinking about having Nicks around long term and Cruz and ELI making what they'd be making and JPP soon to be in monster contract status, Cruz at double digits millions per yr is to much..
I love cruz as much if not more then anyone on here, as i knew he was gonna make team and impact right from start(not to this degree) and followed his college career as he played 45minutes from my home, but its not just about "lets sign em, money grows on trees!"..lol When u got Hakeem Nicks coming up on FA'cy soon, and ELI making what he makes, and Beatty signing for big dollars and JPP soon to be needing monster contract, u gotta thik about priorities.. ELI can make alot of WR's look really good as we throw a ton and hes one of the better throwing QB's int he NFL.. Maybe were thinking a Nicks, Jerrnigan, Edelman, Murphy, Randle WR core is better value then adding Cruz back for 10plus mill per season.. Reese has to think about the future cap as well...
Just food for thought...
Then the Mannings would have taken 2 white slot receivers from Brady.
Spin that Webb young Davis
Would be a great signing for the Giants. Im all for it.
New York Giants Superbowl XXI, XXV, XLII, XLVI Champions!!!!!
So what's the update? Did he come? And if so, did he leave w/o a contract which would mean the giants were not impressed or he is wanting more then what the giants are offering
Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!

Basketball World Records
Basketball world records are where players dribble, shoot, spin and dunk their way to glory, often with an added element of difficulty. (Try juggling three basketballs while balancing a fourth on your forehead and you'll get the idea.) These records don't all require varsity-level experience, though - for a less challenging task, try beating the record for Most Images of Charles Barkley on a Cookie or Most Three-Pointers Missed By Five People In One Minute.

Town Square
Trying to milk Stanford for money
Original post made by Not so fast, Duveneck/St. Francis, on Mar 13, 2007
Web Link
Looks like another example of the council trying to use different standards when dealing with Stanford.
Of particular note is this quotation from Drekmeier:
"This is something they can afford," said Council Member Peter Drekmeier. "
Drekmeier, who prior to his days on the council was an noted Stanford basher, seems to think that Stanford is cash cow that the city of Palo Alto can milk to make up for their ineptitude in managing their resources and money.
By the way, I wonder if anyone bothered to ask Benest, Baum and the rest of our city leaders where they planned to build the affordable housing with the money they would have gotten from Stanford.
a resident of Crescent Park
on Mar 13, 2007 at 10:35 am
They were closing a loophole, not milking anybody. Most interesting is that Judy Kleinberg and Bern Beecham voted against it. Maybe conflicts of interest aren't about cups of coffee after all. There's a little more to it. This is a perfect example.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Mar 13, 2007 at 10:53 am
It is convenient to call it a loophole by the powers that be--it makes it sound like Stanford is getting away with something.
You will note from today's article the following:
"Currently the hospital is exempted from paying housing "in-lieu fees" because developments providing public benefits were granted an exception in the city's municipal code in 1984. The fees were initially imposed to help cover housing needs generated by developments bringing new employment to the city."
This was an exemption that was granted to all Stanford Hospital by the city in 1984, it is not a loophole.
Please read yesterday's article:
Web Link
and note particularly this part of it:
"Research around the state showed that most cities that charge housing fees either exempt hospitals or leave them to be addressed on a case-by-case basis, McCown said."
a resident of Crescent Park
on Mar 14, 2007 at 12:37 am
Fine. Do it on a "case-by_case" basis. And in this particular case, make them pay plenty for their arrogant attempt to aggrandize to themselves further bloated, traffic inducing development.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Mar 14, 2007 at 6:06 am
Howard, Forgetting that Stanford is mandated by state law to seismically upgrade it's hospital and that Stanford Hospital and Lucille Packard Hospital are world leaders in providing health care--the question as I asked before, is where would you build this affordable housing that you want Stanford to pay for?
You also forget, Howard, that without Stanford Palo Alto would be Gary, Indiana.
a resident of Terman Middle School
on Mar 14, 2007 at 6:22 pm
I thought the city attorney disputed this statement by McCown, Stanford's development coordinator attorney:
"Research around the state showed that most cities that charge housing fees either exempt hospitals or leave them to be addressed on a case-by-case basis, McCown said."
Since Kleinberg describes herself as a housing advocate, this vote is really hard to figure out. Anyone understand it?
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Mar 15, 2007 at 7:42 am
If Baum disputed McCowan's statement is what not reported in the news, I think.
Maybe Kleinberg realized that assessing the fee would require Palo Alto to actually have to build the affordable housing and that would have opened a new can of worms as to where to put it --plus the usual dealings with the "too much traffic", "not enough schools" crowd.


text: Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum, and I just got a 2008 Silverado. I was washing the windows with Windex, and some Windex got on the top of the interior door handle. I wiped it off, and the silver paint came off the handle. Is this something covered by warranty? Is the interior paint Chevy uses really this bad? I have never seen paint come off this easily. I've had 15 vehicles, and have used windex on every one of them without this problem.

In hindsight, some of the best things turn out to have been the most obvious.
This was destined to be a year in which the biggest tech companies would consolidate their hold on power. You could have set your stock picking on auto-pilot, almost.
The smartphone duo of Apple aapl -0.29908972691807545% Apple Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD153.34 -0.46 -0.29908972691807545% /Date(1495659600177-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 18779131 AFTER HOURS USD153.25 -0.0900000000000034 -0.05869310029998696% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 440023 P/E Ratio 17.93450292397661 Market Cap 799490182546.973 Dividend Yield 1.6434068083996347% Rev. per Employee 1894280 More quote details and news » (ticker: AAPL) and Samsung Electronics (005930.Korea), specifically, notched up one success after another.
I guessed only half that story, though, as I mostly ignored Samsung as a stock pick, preferring to focus on Apple. Up 36% this year, Samsung's shares reflect its becoming the biggest cellphone maker in the land. Against a backdrop of 15.6% appreciation for the Nasdaq, 13.2% for the Standard & Poor's 500, and 7.4% for the Dow, Samsung's performance was stellar for a decades-old tech giant. Even Apple's winning a $1.05 billion award against the Korean company in August on patent-infringement charges didn't slow Samsung down.
Apple was a more mixed bag this year. Up 28%, it was hardly a disappointment. It performed strongly right out of the gate, rising more than 50% in the first three months of the year on the astounding strength in iPhone sales in its December 2011 and March 2012 quarterly reports.
I accurately predicted in March that the stock might take a breather, and it did, just briefly ("Now Hear This, Investors: Believe It or Not, Apple Is…Cheap!" March 19). And I was right in anticipating that the shares would rise toward the September introduction of the iPhone 5 ("Apple Is a Safe Haven in a Tech World Riven With Fear," July 9). I waxed enthusiastic about that product introduction, predicting an imminent rally on the premise Apple would make money "more swiftly and surely than ever before" ("Amazing Apple Does It Again," Sept. 17).
What rally there was, however, was short-lived. The stock, then at a lifetime high of $696.98, rose a little further, to $705.07, before losing altitude, fast.
There were specific issues that caused lots of negative headlines, such as the debacle of Apple's new Maps program. And there were broader concerns that Apple's innovation had ceased with the passing of founder Steve Jobs last year, and that its tremendous growth would slow.
With the stock trading at the time at an ominous $666, I argued that the critics had no real concrete arguments, just vague conjecture ("Apple Critics Sharpen Their Pens, but Lack Logic," Oct. 8).
The joke was on me. The shares proceeded to fall 20% to a recent $519. Clearly, I should have heeded the instincts of folks like Doug Kass, who warned that the best stocks will drop like a stone when it's time for investors to cash in hefty profits.
In contrast to my unwavering faith in Apple, I had a midcourse change of heart in 2012 about the titans of personal computing, Intel intc 0.7250418293363079% Intel Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD36.12 0.26 0.7250418293363079% /Date(1495659600252-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 17879183 AFTER HOURS USD36.08 -0.0399999999999992 -0.11074197120708748% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2981074 P/E Ratio 15.704347826086957 Market Cap 168864742874.145 Dividend Yield 3.017718715393134% Rev. per Employee 570575 More quote details and news » (INTC) and Microsoft msft 0.1310425160163075% Microsoft Corp.

After starting the year arguing that Intel was holding up OK despite a weak PC market, and that Microsoft could rise and rise in advance of its next operating system version, Windows 8, I threw in the towel when things started to look even grimmer for the PC business.
The turning point was Microsoft's announcement in June that it would go into competition with its hardware partners with the Surface tablet computer. It was an important clue that this is no longer your grandfather's PC industry ("Microsoft Tries to Etch a Future in Tablets," June 25). Intel shares have fallen 23% since that article and are down 15% for the year, while Microsoft fell 11% but is now up 5.5% for the year.
Early in 2012 I declared that it would be all about cloud-computing companies, but that some of the stocks were too dear to recommend ("Forecast for 2012: A Cloud-y Kind of Year," Jan. 2).
Indeed, server-technology vendor Fusion-IO (FIO) continues to be a great name, but its shares are down 7%, a consequence of strong results not living up to the loftiest expectations.
I didn't exactly recommend shares of competitors OCZ Technology (OCZ) and Stec (STEC), but I wished I'd warned against them. Their shares fell 70% and 40%, respectively, this year.
In a similar vein, I wrote in August that the other really big trend in corporate IT, so-called big data, had already played out for the stocks of some young companies, leaving little room for more share-price appreciation ("Big Data Is Giving Small Techs a Big Boost," Aug. 13). Sure enough, Mellanox Technologies (MLNX) crumbled 45%, amidst worries over rising competition. InfoBlox (BLOX), a hot IPO this year, is down 15% since the article, and shares of Qlik Technologies (QLIK) are flat.
Over the summer I believed that cable providers— Comcast CMCSA 1.3826043237807943% Comcast Corp. Cl A U.S.: Nasdaq USD40.33 0.55 1.3826043237807943% /Date(1495659600240-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 16279205 AFTER HOURS USD40.09 -0.239999999999995 -0.5950905033473841% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 909245 P/E Ratio 21.45212765957447 Market Cap 191251250590.573 Dividend Yield 1.5621125712868833% Rev. per Employee 516201 More quote details and news » (CMCSA), Cablevision (CVC), Time Warner Cable (TWC), and Charter Communications chtr 3.215282788042285% Charter Communications Inc.

I was half right. The two most speculative names, Charter and Cablevision, fell 5% and 8%, respectively, following the article. But Comcast rose 8% and Time Warner, over 7%. Hopefully, two out of four will be considered not terrible.
In August I said that Cisco Systems csco -0.8501259445843828% Cisco Systems Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD31.49 -0.27 -0.8501259445843828% /Date(1495659600255-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 22731361 AFTER HOURS USD31.49 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 786272 P/E Ratio 15.824120603015075 Market Cap 157451705588.977 Dividend Yield 3.683709114004446% Rev. per Employee 658209 More quote details and news » (CSCO) was in "a place just right," with modest revenue growth but an equally modest valuation. It also had a newfound largesse, vowing to keep its payout ratio at 50% of free cash flow.
The stock is up almost 5% since that story, as investors have responded to results that were relatively good in an otherwise rough market for networking equipment. The stock is up 9% for the year.
As it turned out, the skepticism I had in a prescriptive cover story about Hewlett-Packard hpq 0.26371308016877637% HP Inc.

In laying out the challenges for newly installed CEO Meg Whitman to renovate the world's largest PC maker successfully, I wrote that it seemed like a nearly impossible task, which has proved true so far. I didn't take a specific position on HP shares but pointed readers toward other stocks like Apple and Cisco. In subsequent columns I warned readers away from the shares. And as HP has limped through lousy earnings reports and massive write-downs, the shares have plunged 52% since our first story.
As I said, sometimes the surest things are right under your nose.

Dublb - I'm with QuiltE, Double Nudge, Nudge and an extra Nudge, That beautiful quilt top is screaming to be put up to the top of your to do list.
Have a wonderful day Ladies
Have an awesome day!
Dubib...I LOVE YOUR quilt! Is that embroidery or applique for the BB? And I agree, a perfect quilt for your Brady house.
Works4me...just think of is as the foundation for your quilting....i.e.$$$$$$
QuiltE...I've seen some beautiful quilts that have blocks set on point with a large floral pattern for the setting blocks. It might even be the place for appliqué on the main blocks.
JenniKy...trilliums are wildflowers that are usually found in a woodsy setting and they bloom in early spring. Delicate but regal in appearance.
GGal ... a good description of the flower!
Jenniky ... here's some trilliums for you to check out!
As you can see, there are different variations of them. White is the most commonly known, and the first row of pics gives you a good sense of them. The TRI of trillium for their three flower petals and three leaves ... not to be confused with the three leaves of poison ivy!!
They are our provincial flower, and it is illegal to pick them. When I moved here, there were none in the bush. I've since moved several and they have gone forth and multiplied! You can't pick them, but many do move them!!). I always have liked them growing in nature ... and have a few pieces of art featuring them too. Being batik the fabric is not a true-type depiction.
As for the trillium project ... I could abandon Miss Peep ... and QAYG (which I haven't started but want to learn how to) ... and PC has been neglescted ... and then there's my numerous other PUPs that I really do want to turn into DOGS. For now, I'm content with admiring the fabric, oohing, aahing and petting it!
Or in short, just read my siggy ........................
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
Oh QE that's the very reason my BB quilt isn't finished. It's just for me & I have other quilts ta finish first. The Brady house is cuttin' way into my quiltin' time! Your sig fits me too!!!!!
My initials are BB, so dublb is double B.
Hello Jenninky - here's a progress picture. It's a bit boring. The Scots pine will look much better once it has its cones.
QuiltE - time for a trillium appliqué? The pictures are really pretty.
Dublb - when are you going to quilt the bluebonnets?
Muv ... I think appliques are going to be part of Miss Peep in the Character Challenge. When I get there, you;ll be seeing many a smokin' SOS from this side of the pond! Are you all caught up in the Olympic fever? Great bunch of Golds being collected by Team GB!! The trillium project will be pretty simple, because I'll want to focus on the trilliums in the batik ....... and don't hold your breath on the when!
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
QuiltE - you shouldn't have reminded me. I have just had to delay my bedtime to watch the jump off again for the team showjumping. I couldn't watch first time, only listen! Not many gold medallists in the games are in their fifties with hip replacements. There's hope for me yet.
Of course I should do my duty ... and you Muv, should be watching them while you can. It'll be over all too fast and then we'll be back to our normal programming. Talk about ages ... how about our 65yo Ian Miller!! Sadly our Canadian Equestrian team didn't fare too well ... after losing one to injury and then one of our Jumpers' horses being disqualified. They showed the poor girl on TV last night and she was in tears at the press conference. They're doing the re-play of today's coverage now, so perhaps I'll see some of the Show Jump classes?
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
Muv - I can't wait to see how you manage the pine cones. I'm thinking difficult...for me that is..for you, a walk in the park, our Mentor of Applique.
Have an awesome day!

Includes the total number of ancestries reported and coded. If a person reported a multiple ancestry such as "German Danish," that response was counted twice in the tabulations--once in the German category and again in the Danish category. Also, if a person reported two different types of German ancestry, such as "Bavarian Hamburger," they would be counted twice in the German category on this type of table. Thus, each line of this table represents the number of reports for that ancestry type, not the number of people (although sometimes that number is the same). Likewise, the sum of the estimates in each of the rows in this type of presentation is not the total population but the total of all responses. The German line in this table is interpreted as "The number of times a German ancestry was reported."

Brian Ray Album Release Party: Voyage-Air Guitar Winner!
Brian Ray's party at the Roxy in Hollywood was undoubtedly one of the most energized shows we've seen. The house was packed to the gills, and Brian played songs from his newly released cd "This Way Up." He was supported in the audience by his fellow Paul McCartney band mate, Rusty Anderson. Many other superstars filled the audience to see what Brian's been doing in his time off the road from the McCartney tour.
In keeping with Brian's charitable nature, he raffled off a number of musical instruments and equipment for the MusiCares charity, including the Voyage-Air Guitar. First up on stage, Voyage-Air CEO Jeff Cohen demonstrated the instrument while Brian pulled the winning name from the hat.
The lucky winner was Gerald Greene, who plays the drums, he sings, plays trombone, harmonica and now the Voyage-Air Guitar! He traveled extensively with his brother, Dennis Greene, a founding member of the group "Sha Na Na". Gerald released his first solo cd in 1998 entitled "Yesterday Love" and is presently working on a new project called "It's Time!" In addition to performing, Gerald also writes songs and has had success in acting, with parts in "Law & Order" and "Sex and the City." He has also worked in the theater in a piece entitled "The Forgotten" written by his brother, Dennis.
It seems that there is no stopping this multi-talented man, there's no telling where he might show up next with the Voyage-Air Guitar!

text: Louis Lozowick (December 10, 1892 – September 9, 1973) was an American painter and printmaker. He was born in the Russian Empire, came to the United States in 1906, and died in New Jersey in 1973. He is recognized as an Art Deco and Precisionist artist, and mainly produced streamline, urban-inspired monochromatic lithographs in a career that spanned 50 years. Lozowick attended Kiev Art School from 1904-1906 before he emigrated to the USA, where he continued his studies at the National Academy of Design (New York) and Ohio State University. From 1919 to 1924 Lozowick lived and traveled throughout Europe, spending most of his time in Paris, Berlin and Moscow. In the mid-1920s he started making his first lithographs. By 1926, when he joined the editorial board of the left-wing journal, New Masses, he was well-versed in current artistic developments in Europe, such as Constructivism and de Stijl. These hard-edged, linear styles, evident in a lithograph called "New York," suggest the possibility of an efficient reframing of the world, as did the political theories espoused in New Masses. A version of this lithograph was planned as a cover for New Masses that was never published. Lozowick was highly interested in the development of the Russian avant-garde and even published a monograph on Russian Constructivism entitled Modern Russian Art. In 1943 Lozowick moved to New Jersey where he continued to paint and make prints. The human condition remained a constant theme of his art, and an ongoing interest in nature appears more frequently in his later works. Full Wikipedia Article

Thousands of children need help staying fed during the summer
The numbers are hard to imagine, but at least 2,000 children in our region need help to stay fed during the summer.
With school lunches out of the picture, local organizations are stepping in to meet this growing need.
As a box of food gets loaded into Lillian Neice's truck, this grandmother, who is raising her 15-year-old granddaughter on a fixed income, is breathing a sigh of relief. "I'm praying and hoping, because she is so much a growing girl, that what we get here helps us get through a month," Neice told News 5.
That's just the idea behind Good Samaritan Ministries' summer food program, but he organization still needs $48,000 to serve the 600 families they know need the extra help. "When they can't rely on the school during the summertime, it gets really hard to provide," explained Amber Greene with Good Samaritan Ministries.
The boxes given out include several boxes of macaroni and cheese, cereal, canned soup, ramen noodles, and many more items. The box is expected to last a family with children about one month.
We learned this kind of food is needed for kids all across our region.
News 5 found out about 450 children will be fed every day in our area by Feeding America Southwest Virginia's summer food program, and Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee served about 1,600 children last summer on their mobile food buses and stationary feeding sites.
"The numbers will most definitely double this year, if not even triple, because of the amount of children we're seeing coming to these sites," said Rhonda Chafin, executive director of Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee.
For Ashley Hayes, a mother of three, Second Harvest's food busses are what helps her children get the nutrition they need when times are tough and every little bit counts. "Our house just burnt down, I mean it really helps," Hayes said choking back tears.
"It tastes good!" her son Christopher Hayes said as he was eating his lunch on the bus.

A man has been jailed for historical sexual offences against two girls - sisters who were his own children's friends.
Paul Ernest Ford, who will be 70 in July, was sentenced by Judge David Cameron to six years in prison when he appeared in Wanganui District Court yesterday.
The two complainants were aged between 7 and 8 when they were indecently assaulted by him.
Ford initially offended against the older sister, from 1978 to 1980, while she was staying overnight at his house in Wanganui. He got into her bed and molested her.
Then, between 1979 and 1981, he violated the girl's younger sister in the same way.
Ford admitted two counts of raping a girl under 12, one count of attempted rape, three representative counts of indecently assaulting a girl under 12 and two representative counts of permitting an indecent act with a girl under 12.
He did so after a sentence indication of six years in prison and no non-parole period.
The older sister, now in her 40s, sat with her mother in the public gallery yesterday and broke down as her victim impact statement was read to the court by a support person while Ford stood, uncomfortably, in the dock.
"You disgust me," she said.
At first, as an 8-year-old, she felt frightened and confused. Ford told her he would not fix her mother's car if she revealed his crime.
Feelings of guilt and shame then dominated her adolescence. She felt "dirty" and considered taking her own life.
Now a mother, she struggles to relax when her children are around strangers.
In a statement read by Crown prosecutor Sarah Law, the younger sister said she was troubled by nightmares: "I can't get those bad memories out of my head."
The girls' solo mother became aware of the offending in 2008, when her daughters complained to the police.
She said Ford and his family had been helping her out. He knew she was vulnerable.
The mother said she felt haunted by the guilt of not protecting her daughters from Ford.
In August 2001, Ford was imprisoned for nine years for the 1996 rape of a female aged 12-16 and for indecently assaulting a girl under 12 in 2000.
According to his pre-sentence report, he remains at high risk of reoffending.
Though at times expressing empathy for his victims, he blamed others for not keeping children away from him.
Judge Cameron said Ford, in his 30s at the time he offended against the sisters, had left his victims in a state of fear.
He handed down six years' imprisonment for the eight charges.

Thierry Henry admits he would never have scaled such heights without his former Arsenal team-mates.
The Club's record goalscorer fought back the tears as his statue was unveiled at Emirates Stadium on Friday alongside fellow legends Herbert Chapman and Tony Adams.
Henry, who scored 226 goals in an Arsenal shirt, admits he owes it all to the players around him during his eight-year tenure at the Club.
"I want to insist how important how important it was for me to play with some great players," he said. "Without them I wouldn't have been able to play there.
"When you look at the likes of the back four - Martin [Keown], Nigel [Winterburn], Lee [Dixon], David [Seaman], Lauren who came after, [Sol] Campbell, [Ashley] Cole - I am going to name the whole squad - Patrick [Vieira], Sylvain [Wiltord] too, who was underrated at the time because he was an amazing player. Robert [Pires] as well.
"Without them I wouldn't have been able to do what I did - we went through a season unbeaten.
"I wanted to say that again - without your team you are nothing. It would not have been possible without them so I want to thank them too."

MORE ORATORIO THAN OPERA So James Levine decided to program Les Troyens in concert,
and the result was overwhelming.
I just got home and I'm still shaking. Along with about 2000 other concertgoers, I spent this Sunday afternoon and evening at the Boston Symphony Orchestra's full performance of Berlioz's epic Les Troyens — his operatic dramatization of Virgil's sprawling story of the Trojan War and its aftermath, one part dealing with the fall of Troy, the other with the Trojans at Carthage and centering on the doomed love affair between Aeneas, the surviving Trojan prince, and Dido, the widowed queen of Carthage. Les Troyens is one of the most ambitious undertakings in the history of opera, and it has some of Berlioz's most adventurous, powerful, and unbelievably gorgeous music. The act four sequence of quintet, septet, and love duet is non-stop musical orgasm (which is what it's supposed to represent). In 1972, Sarah Caldwell presented the first complete American staging. This was Boston's first chance to hear it since.
James Levine has led Les Troyens numerous times; that includes two Metropolitan Opera productions, the last of which, in 2003, featured the late Lorraine Hunt Lieberson's towering Dido and Ben Heppner's glorious Aeneas. (Their love duet had some of the most sublime singing I've ever heard.) But this BSO performance may have been even closer to his heart. He seems to have solved all his problems with the orchestra, which was with him every inch of the way, "the way" encompassing some five hours of music separated by a dinner break. And John Oliver's Tanglewood Festival Chorus outdid even itself in precision, dramatic responsiveness, and passion. There were separate evenings devoted to each part. But this complete performance was the one the true Berlioz lovers came to be overwhelmed by.
At Levine's press conference for the 2008–2009 BSO season a week ago Monday, a highlight of which is Verdi's brooding political opera, Simon Boccanegra, the question came up about opera in concert. We enjoy opera on the radio and on CDs, he replied, so why not in concert, especially if it's an opera with powerful orchestral scoring rather than a lot of scenic effects or dramatic action you want to see play out. Les Troyens certainly fits that category. Berlioz's own libretto, borrowing some radiant poetic language from Shakespeare, seems almost more oratorio-like than operatic. (It's not in "scenes" but in "tableaux.") Caldwell's staging was memorable, but the two inadequate Met productions distracted from rather than added to the experience. At a day-long symposium at Harvard, Levine talked about how much more vivid the Trojan Horse of our imagination is than any stage image could be.
In this BSO concert version, the orchestra provided its own Technicolor and Cinemascope. Ominous warnings coiled inexorably around our chests; love music transported us into ecstasies. Strong soloists helped. Last year, French mezzo-soprano Yvonne Naef, eyes glued to her score, seemed to give little more than 10 percent as the tormented Marguerite in Berlioz's La damnation de Faust. But as Cassandra, and fighting a severe cold, she gave 110 percent — she was gripping, heartfelt, and heroic. (The only signs of illness were her handkerchief and the china mug from which she sipped.) Some of Dido is too big for Swedish mezzo Anne Sofie von Otter, but she sounded better than in Mahler's Das Lied von der Erde a few weeks ago, and she offered such a full and convincing portrayal, the chancier details played only bit parts. Met tenor Marcello Giordano's Aeneas was both elegant and powerful, though his loudest high notes tended to lose texture. Dwayne Croft gave Chorebus, Cassandra's lover, an importance the part's brevity would seem to preclude.

E3, LOS ANGELES - May 17, 2001 - Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer
and publisher of video games, today presents Devil May Cry, a new "gothic
action" game for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system. Designed
by Resident Evil creator and mastermind, Shinji Mikami, Devil May Cry
tells the story of Dante, the descendent of a legendary swordsman who
has waged a one-man battle against the demon world in order to carry
out a 2000 year-old revenge. Scheduled to release in November, Devil
May Cry is already the most anticipated PlayStation 2 game for fall

in mystery. Legend has it that 2000 years ago, in the depths of hell,
a demon swordsman, awoke to justice and rebelled against the devil,
waging a one-man war in support of the human world. 2000 years later,
Dante, a private investigator of the supernatural, realizes that the
devil is rallying to rise again against mankind. How does Dante fit
into this gothic puzzle? Deep within Dante's blood lies the power of
ancient demons and as his power builds he transforms into a demon state
where he can inflict unearthly powers on the retched souls he encounters.
As Dante continues his adventure he will find powerful weaponry including
his dual-pistols and shotguns. Dante will discover powerful swords,
each possessing various elemental powers. This devil hunter will lead
players into the fantastic dark world as Dante's destiny is played out
in a gothic battle of good against evil. If Dante is successful, the
Devil May Cry.
As he seeks revenge for the past, Dante will face many evil beings,

Foreign Entanglements: Israeli Election Results
On this week's episode of Foreign Entanglements, Matt spoke with Gil Troy about the Israeli election results:
On this week's episode of Foreign Entanglements, Matt spoke with Gil Troy about the Israeli election results:
Trackback URL | Comments RSS Feed
With regards to Israel's relations with the Palestinians, the US, and the rest of the world the elections are meaningless. The policies are not going to change in anything other than cosmetically. I know that everybody here disagrees with me about everything. But, I fail to see how the Israeli election changes anything with regards to Israeli foreign policy.
Because Yitzhak Rabin and Ariel Sharon had identical policies.
Sharon and Rabin did not run in this last election. Yaer Lapid's party is going to form a coalition with Likud so how are the policies going to be different from the previous Likud government? The Prime Minister is going to be the same person, Netanyahu. Is he going to radically change his policies now? How? Why?
I misread you as saying the election could not have changed anything. My bad, and my apologies.
Dropping to a one-vote margin for their government might or might not motivate Likud to curb itself, but if this indicates a trend, then could well be a very different coalition next time.
Now, not having listened to the video, I'd simply say that this election is fundamentally about people interested in economic issues, but not so interested enough that they're willing to deal with the Occupation, which underlies everything.
Or, reading what you say closely, I'd say that this is the process of integrating consent for real economic change, and narrows further discussion towards Gaza and West Bank. The next effective governing coalition will have won with some kind of plan for winding some of that apartheid down.

Step 1
Toss apple slices with lemon juice and cinnamon in a small bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Keep warm.
Step 2
Mix 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence, salt and pepper. Place chicken between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or the bottom of a small saucepan to a 1/2-inch thickness. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with the seasoning mixture.
Step 3
Heat 1 teaspoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add half the chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and keep warm. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter to the pan; heat over high heat. Cook the remaining chicken in the same manner.
Step 4
Add broth, lemon zest, the remaining 1/8 teaspoon herbes and any accumulated juices from the chicken to the pan. Cook, stirring to scrape up any browned bits, until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve with the sautéed apples.

Cordarone IV
(Generic versions may still be available.)
In a total of 1836 patients in controlled and uncontrolled clinical trials, 14% of patients received Cordarone I.V. for at least 1 week, 5% received it for at least 2 weeks, 2% received it for at least 3 weeks, and 1% received it for more than 3 weeks, without an increased incidence of severe adverse reactions. The mean duration of therapy in these studies was 5.6 days; median exposure was 3.7 days.
The most important treatment-emergent adverse effects were hypotension, asystole/cardiac arrest/electromechanical dissociation (EMD), cardiogenic shock, congestive heart failure, bradycardia, liver function test abnormalities, VT, and AV block. Overall, treatment was discontinued for about 9% of the patients because of adverse effects. The most common adverse effects leading to discontinuation of Cordarone I.V. therapy were hypotension (1.6%), asystole/cardiac arrest/EMD (1.2%), VT (1.1%), and cardiogenic shock (1%).
The following table lists the most common (incidence 2%) treatment-emergent adverse events during Cordarone I.V. therapy considered at least possibly drug-related. These data were collected in clinical trials involving 1836 patients with life-threatening VT/VF. Data from all assigned treatment groups are pooled because none of the adverse events appeared to be dose-related.

Postmarketing Reports
In postmarketing surveillance, hypotension (sometimes fatal), sinus arrest, anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reaction (including shock), angioedema, hepatitis, cholestatic hepatitis, cirrhosis, pancreatitis, renal impairment, renal insufficiency, acute renal failure, bronchospasm, possibly fatal respiratory disorders (including distress, failure, arrest, and ARDS), bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (possibly fatal), fever, dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis, wheezing, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates and/or mass, pleuritis, pseudotumor cerebri, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), thyroid nodules/thyroid cancer, toxic epidermal necrolysis (sometimes fatal), erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, exfoliative dermatitis, skin cancer, vasculitis, pruritus, hemolytic anemia, aplastic anemia, pancytopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis, granuloma, myopathy, muscle weakness, rhabdomyolysis, hallucination, confusional state, disorientation, delirium, epididymitis, and impotence also have been reported with amiodarone therapy.
Also, in patients receiving recommended dosages of Cordarone I.V., there have been postmarketing reports of the following injection site reactions: pain, erythema, edema, pigment changes, venous thrombosis, phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, cellulitis, necrosis, and skin sloughing (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
Read the Cordarone IV (amiodarone intravenous) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
Amiodarone is metabolized to desethylamiodarone by the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzyme group, specifically cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) and CYP2C8. The CYP3A4 isoenzyme is present in both the liver and intestines (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism). Amiodarone is an inhibitor of CYP3A4 and p-glycoprotein. Therefore, amiodarone has the potential for interactions with drugs or substances that may be substrates, inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 and substrates of p-glycoprotein. While only a limited number of in vivo drug-drug interactions with amiodarone have been reported, chiefly with the oral formulation, the potential for other interactions should be anticipated. This is especially important for drugs associated with serious toxicity, such as other antiarrhythmics. If such drugs are needed, their dose should be reassessed and, where appropriate, plasma concentration measured. In view of the long and variable half-life of amiodarone, potential for drug interactions exists not only with concomitant medication but also with drugs administered after discontinuation of amiodarone.
Since amiodarone is a substrate for CYP3A4 and CYP2C8, drugs/substances that inhibit these isoenzymes may decrease the metabolism and increase serum concentration of amiodarone. Reported examples include the following
Protease Inhibitors
Protease inhibitors are known to inhibit CYP3A4 to varying degrees. A case report of one patient taking amiodarone 200 mg and indinavir 800 mg three times a day resulted in increases in amiodarone concentrations from 0.9 mg/L to 1.3 mg/L. DEA concentrations were not affected. There was no evidence of toxicity. Monitoring for amiodarone toxicity and serial measurement of amiodarone serum concentration during concomitant protease inhibitor therapy should be considered.
Histamine H1 antagonists
Loratadine, a non-sedating antihistaminic, is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4. QT interval prolongation and torsade de pointes have been reported with the co-administration of loratadine and amiodarone.
Histamine H2 antagonists
Cimetidine inhibits CYP3A4 and can increase serum amiodarone levels.
Trazodone, an antidepressant, is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4. QT interval prolongation and torsade de pointes have been reported with the co-administration of trazodone and amiodarone.
Other substances
Grapefruit juice given to healthy volunteers increased amiodarone AUC by 50% and Cmax by 84%, resulting in increased plasma levels of amiodarone. Grapefruit juice should not be taken during treatment with oral amiodarone. This information should be considered when changing from intravenous amiodarone to oral amiodarone (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, Intravenous to Oral Transition).
Amiodarone inhibits p-glycoprotein and certain CYP450 enzymes, including CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4. This inhibition can result in unexpectedly high plasma levels of other drugs which are metabolized by those CYP450 enzymes or are substrates of p-glycoprotein. Reported examples of this interaction include the following:
Cyclosporine (CYP3A4 substrate) administered in combination with oral amiodarone has been reported to produce persistently elevated plasma concentrations of cyclosporine resulting in elevated creatinine, despite reduction in dose of cyclosporine.
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors
Simvastatin (CYP3A4 substrate) in combination with amiodarone has been associated with reports of myopathy/rhabdomyolysis.
Cardiac glycosides: In patients receiving digoxin therapy, administration of oral amiodarone regularly results in an increase in serum digoxin concentration that may reach toxic levels with resultant clinical toxicity. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with digoxin increases the serum digoxin concentration by 70% after one day. On administration of oral amiodarone, the need for digitalis therapy should be reviewed and the dose reduced by approximately 50% or discontinued. If digitalis treatment is continued, serum levels should be closely monitored and patients observed for clinical evidence of toxicity. These precautions probably should apply to digitoxin administration as well.
Antiarrhythmics: Other antiarrhythmic drugs, such as quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide, and phenytoin, have been used concurrently with amiodarone. There have been case reports of increased steady-state levels of quinidine, procainamide, and phenytoin during concomitant therapy with amiodarone. Phenytoin decreases serum amiodarone levels. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with quinidine increases quinidine serum concentration by 33% after two days. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with procainamide for less than seven days increases plasma concentrations of procainamide and n-acetyl procainamide by 55% and 33%, respectively. Quinidine and procainamide doses should be reduced by one-third when either is administered with amiodarone. Plasma levels of flecainide have been reported to increase in the presence of oral amiodarone; because of this, the dosage of flecainide should be adjusted when these drugs are administered concomitantly. In general, any added antiarrhythmic drug should be initiated at a lower than usual dose with careful monitoring. Combination of amiodarone with other antiarrhythmic therapy should be reserved for patients with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias who are incompletely responsive to a single agent or incompletely responsive to amiodarone. During transfer to oral amiodarone, the dose levels of previously administered agents should be reduced by 30 to 50% several days after the addition of oral amiodarone (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, Intravenous to Oral Transition). The continued need for the other antiarrhythmic agent should be reviewed after the effects of amiodarone have been established, and discontinuation ordinarily should be attempted. If the treatment is continued, these patients should be particularly carefully monitored for adverse effects, especially conduction disturbances and exacerbation of tachyarrhythmias, as amiodarone is continued. In amiodarone-treated patients who require additional antiarrhythmic therapy, the initial dose of such agents should be approximately half of the usual recommended dose.
Antihypertensives: Amiodarone should be used with caution in patients receiving β-receptor blocking agents (e.g., propranolol, a CYP3A4 inhibitor) or calcium channel antagonists (e.g., verapamil, a CYP3A4 substrate, and diltiazem, a CYP3A4 inhibitor) because of the possible potentiation of bradycardia, sinus arrest, and AV block; if necessary, amiodarone can continue to be used after insertion of a pacemaker in patients with severe bradycardia or sinus arrest.
Anticoagulants: Potentiation of warfarin-type (CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 substrate) anticoagulant response is almost always seen in patients receiving amiodarone and can result in serious or fatal bleeding. Since the concomitant administration of warfarin with amiodarone increases the prothrombin time by 100% after 3 to 4 days, the dose of the anticoagulant should be reduced by one-third to one-half, and prothrombin times should be monitored closely. A similar effect has been reported with fluindione, an oral vitamin K antagonist, when administered concomitantly with Cordarone.
Clopidogrel, an inactive thienopyridine prodrug, is metabolized in the liver by CYP3A4 to an active metabolite. A potential interaction between clopidogrel and Cordarone resulting in ineffective inhibition of platelet aggregation has been reported.
Some drugs/substances are known to accelerate the metabolism of amiodarone by stimulating the synthesis of CYP3A4 (enzyme induction). This may lead to low amiodarone serum levels and potential decrease in efficacy. Reported examples of this interaction include the following:
Rifampin is a potent inducer of CYP3A4. Administration of rifampin concomitantly with oral amiodarone has been shown to result in decreases in serum concentrations of amiodarone and desethylamiodarone.
Other substances, including herbal preparations
St. Johns Wort (Hypericum perforatum) induces CYP3A4. Since amiodarone is a substrate for CYP3A4, there is the potential that the use of St. Johns Wort in patients receiving amiodarone could result in reduced amiodarone levels.
Other reported interactions with amiodarone
Fentanyl (CYP3A4 substrate) in combination with amiodarone may cause hypotension, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output.
Sinus bradycardia has been reported with oral amiodarone in combination with lidocaine (CYP3A4 substrate) given for local anesthesia. Seizure, associated with increased lidocaine concentrations, has been reported with concomitant administration of intravenous amiodarone.
Dextromethorphan is a substrate for both CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. Amiodarone inhibits CYP2D6.
Cholestyramine increases enterohepatic elimination of amiodarone and may reduce its serum levels and t½ .
Disopyramide increases QT prolongation which could cause arrhythmia.
Fluoroquinolones, macrolide antibiotics, and azoles are known to cause QTc prolongation. There have been reports of QTc prolongation, with or without TdP, in patients taking amiodarone when fluoroquinolones, macrolide antibiotics, or azoles were administered concomitantly. (See PRECAUTIONS, Proarrhythmia.)
Hemodynamic and electrophysiologic interactions have also been observed after concomitant administration with propranolol, diltiazem, and verapamil.
Volatile Anesthetic Agents: (see PRECAUTIONS, Surgery).
In addition to the interactions noted above, chronic (> 2 weeks) oral Cordarone administration impairs metabolism of phenytoin, dextromethorphan, and methotrexate.
Electrolyte Disturbances
Patients with hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia should have the condition corrected whenever possible before being treated with Cordarone I.V., as these disorders can exaggerate the degree of QTc prolongation and increase the potential for TdP. Special attention should be given to electrolyte and acid-base balance in patients experiencing severe or prolonged diarrhea or in patients receiving concomitant diuretics.

Testing progesterone, LDH, BHB and MUN right in the parlor (or robot) is on its way. What's next?
by Lucas Sjostrom, Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor
I'll admit that I'm a bit of a technology geek. I say "a bit" because I am not a video gamer, computer programmer or owner of the latest iPhone. But unlike some dairy farmers I encounter, I see technology as a golden opportunity rather than a mechanical hindrance on the farm.
Since I center my editing on equipment and milk quality among other subjects, the parlor is an obvious focus for me. Ten years ago, robotic milking was the exciting subject everyone was talking about. Five years ago, activity monitoring that linked to both heat detection and milk weights by cow were popular. Both are still being talked about on farms around the world. People are considering purchasing one or the other to eliminate labor on the farm. Both will soon be overshadowed by in-line milk sampling and subsequent analysis.
Milk progesterone analysis allows for detection of pregnancy and finding when cows are in heat. Progesterone levels vary throughout a cow's life cycle. Constant progesterone samples allow us to know when a cow is in heat or pregnant. With in-line progesterone testing, we may be able to eliminate synchronization programs and palpations for pregnancy checking. If that isn't revolutionary, I don't know what is.
Raymond Nebel, professor emeritus at Virginia Tech, described in a 1998 paper how the progesterone milk sampling and analysis process works with eight commercially available kits producers could use on their own (not in-line). Most dairy producers realize that milk progesterone sampling is available today, but the labor needed to use it is one big roadblock to a broader application. The biggest problem with the kits is that you need a large sample size since it is the relative progesterone level that must be measured, not just tracking a single cow's numbers like we can for somatic cell count.
Three slightly less exciting, but still very exciting, developments to in-line milk testing are recognition of the enzyme LDH (lactate dehydrogenase), BHB (beta hydroxybutyrate), and MUNs (milk urea nitrogen). LDH is correlated very closely with somatic cell counts, giving you an advanced reading on mastitis developments. BHB is a metabolite that will help you find ketotic cows, while MUN can help watch protein levels in your feed. All three can improve cow health and save on feed bills. Again, I would still call these three items revolutionary, just not as revolutionary as their "cousin," the progesterone test.
At least one company, DeLaval, is betting big on in-line milk sampling through their new Herd Navigator system. It is currently available in Canada and will likely be tested in the U.S. in 2013. Other companies are soon to follow suit, but the main point is that the technology will soon be available.
This all leads me to ask, what's next? If we can find cows when they're in heat, pregnant or sick as easily as buying an in-line sampler and analyzer, we'll probably spend more research in animal welfare and housing settings. Obviously, the industry has put a big push towards limiting lameness already, but I'm not so sure we can improve upon pasture, compost bedded packs or sand bedding as lying surfaces. But I can't wait to see someone prove me wrong.
