Hello, I'm Dr. Philip Mease, Director of Rheumatology Research at Swedish Medical Center, Clinical Professor at the University of Washington, and I practice at Seattle Rheumatology Associates.
Psoriatic arthritis is generally a long-term disease that affects the joints, and typically the skin as well.
Because of this, patients with psoriatic arthritis need therapies that can improve symptoms in a rapid and sustained manner, as well as help stop the progression of joint damage.
Now, let's look at the pivotal trial of ENBREL in psoriatic arthritis. In this trial, ENBREL was evaluated for its ability to inhibit the progression of joint damage, reduce disease activity, and improve physical function in patients with psoriatic arthritis. In the double-blind period, patients were given 25 milligrams of ENBREL or placebo twice a week for 6 months. Patients continued to receive blinded therapy for up to 6 more months in a maintenance period. This was followed by a 12-month open-label extension period, in which patients were given 25 milligrams of ENBREL twice each week.
ENBREL therapy led to improvements in measures of disease activity. For example, patients treated with
ENBREL experienced significantly reduced levels of pain, morning stiffness, and C-reactive protein, or
CRP, compared with placebo, in as rapidly as 4 weeks of treatment. This was sustained through 6 months in the double-blind period of the trial. In addition, ACR 20 response for the ENBREL group versus placebo was significantly higher—59% versus 15% at 12 weeks, the study's primary endpoint. A significant ACR 20 response was seen as early as 4 weeks—38% for ENBREL versus 11% for placebo—and was maintained through 24 weeks—50% versus 13%, respectively.
Improvements in pain, morning stiffness, and CRP were also observed at year 2 of the trial.
Physical function was evaluated using the Health Assessment Questionnaire–Disability Index, or HAQ-DI.
By week 4, patients receiving ENBREL reported a significantly greater percentage of change from baseline compared with patients in the placebo group.
This improvement in physical function was maintained out to year 2 of the trial. In addition, those who were switched from placebo to ENBREL after the double-blind portion saw improvement in physical function.
Joint damage was assessed by looking at changes in the modified total Sharp score (or mTSS). During the
2-year trial, patients who were initially randomized to receive ENBREL experienced sustained inhibition of joint damage. In addition, those who were switched from placebo to ENBREL at 12 months also saw inhibition of joint damage.
Efficacy in the skin can be measured by evaluating changes in mean PASI scores. Using this measure,
ENBREL treatment resulted in a significant improvement in mean PASI scores compared with placebo during the double-blind portion at each time point shown. This improvement in mean PASI response was seen in as early as 4 weeks of treatment. At week 24, 47% and 18% of patients achieved PASI 50 response with ENBREL and placebo, respectively.
So we have seen from the ENBREL pivotal trial that in patients with psoriatic arthritis, ENBREL provided improvement in disease activity as measured by levels of pain, morning stiffness, and CRP, and by ACR
20 response; significant and sustained improvements in physical function as measured by HAQ-DI; significant and sustained inhibition of joint damage as measured by change in modified Total Sharp
Score; and significant improvement in skin symptoms as measured by change in PASI.
Together, these results demonstrate the benefits of ENBREL in helping to improve physical function, stop the progression of joint damage, and improve skin symptoms in patients with psoriatic arthritis.
As we know, patients with psoriatic arthritis can experience joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and joint damage. When treating psoriatic arthritis, we should keep in mind the importance of effectively managing these problems.
ENBREL may provide improvements in signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis, as well as significant and sustained improvement in physical function.
Further, ENBREL may provide significant and sustained inhibition of joint damage, as well as significant improvement in dermatologic signs and symptoms. These results indicate that ENBREL is an effective treatment option for patients with psoriatic arthritis with regard to improvement in signs and symptoms, physical function, and inhibition of joint damage.
Patients treated with ENBREL are at increased risk for developing serious infections that may lead to hospitalization or death. Most patients who developed these infections were taking concomitant immunosuppressants such as methotrexate or corticosteroids or were predisposed to infection because of their underlying disease. ENBREL should not be initiated in the presence of sepsis, active infections, or allergy to ENBREL or its components. ENBREL should be discontinued if a patient develops a serious infection or sepsis. Reported infections include: 1) Active tuberculosis (TB), including reactivation of latent TB. Patients with TB have frequently presented with disseminated or extrapulmonary disease. Patients should be tested for latent TB before ENBREL use and periodically during therapy. Treatment for latent infection should be initiated prior to ENBREL use, 2) Invasive fungal infections, including histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, candidiasis, aspergillosis, blastomycosis, and pneumocystosis. Patients with histoplasmosis or other invasive fungal infections may present with disseminated, rather than localized, disease. Antigen and antibody testing for histoplasmosis may be negative in some patients with active infection. Empiric antifungal therapy should be considered in patients at risk for invasive fungal infections who develop severe systemic illness, and 3) Bacterial, viral, and other infections due to opportunistic pathogens, including Legionella and Listeria.
The risks and benefits of treatment with ENBREL should be carefully considered prior to initiating therapy in patients 1) with chronic or recurrent infection, 2) who have been exposed to TB, 3) who have resided or traveled in areas of endemic TB or endemic mycoses, or 4) with underlying conditions that may predispose them to infections such as advanced or poorly controlled diabetes. Patients should be closely monitored for the development of signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment with ENBREL, including the possible development of TB in patients who tested negative for latent TB prior to initiating therapy.
Lymphoma and other malignancies, some fatal, have been reported in children and adolescent patients treated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers, including ENBREL.
In adult clinical trials of all TNF blockers, more cases of lymphoma were seen compared to control patients. The risk of lymphoma may be up to several-fold higher in RA patients. The role of TNF blocker therapy in the development of malignancies is unknown.
Cases of acute and chronic leukemia have been reported in association with postmarketing TNF blocker use in RA and other indications. The risk of leukemia may be higher in patients with RA (approximately 2-fold) than the general population.
Melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) have been reported in patients treated with TNF blockers, including ENBREL. Periodic skin examinations should be considered for all patients at increased risk for skin cancer.
In patients who initiated therapy at ≤ 18 years of age, approximately half of the reported malignancies were lymphomas (Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma). Other cases included rare malignancies usually associated with immunosuppression and malignancies that are not usually observed in children and adolescents. Most of the patients were receiving concomitant immunosuppressants.
Treatment with TNF-blocking agents, including ENBREL, has been associated with rare (< 0.1%) cases of new onset or exacerbation of central nervous system demyelinating disorders, some presenting with mental status changes and some associated with permanent disability, and with peripheral nervous system demyelinating disorders. Cases of transverse myelitis, optic neuritis, multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barré syndromes, other peripheral demyelinating neuropathies, and new onset or exacerbation of seizure disorders have been reported in postmarketing experience with ENBREL therapy. Prescribers should exercise caution in considering the use of ENBREL in patients with preexisting or recent-onset central or peripheral nervous system demyelinating disorders.
Cases of worsening congestive heart failure (CHF) and, rarely, new-onset cases have been reported in patients taking ENBREL. Caution should be used when using ENBREL in patients with CHF. These patients should be carefully monitored.
Rare cases of pancytopenia, including aplastic anemia, some fatal, have been reported. The causal relationship to ENBREL therapy remains unclear. Exercise caution when considering ENBREL in patients who have a previous history of significant hematologic abnormalities. Advise patients to seek immediate medical attention if they develop signs or symptoms of blood dyscrasias or infection. Consider discontinuing ENBREL if significant hematologic abnormalities are confirmed.
Reactivation of hepatitis B has been reported in patients who were previously infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and received concomitant TNF-blocking agents, including ENBREL. Most reports occurred in patients also taking immunosuppressive agents, which may contribute to hepatitis B reactivation. Exercise caution when considering ENBREL in these patients.
Allergic reactions associated with administration of ENBREL during clinical trials have been reported in < 2% of patients. If an anaphylactic reaction or other serious allergic reaction occurs, administration of ENBREL should be discontinued immediately and appropriate therapy initiated.
Live vaccines should not be administered to patients on ENBREL. Pediatric patients, if possible, should be brought up to date with all immunizations prior to initiating ENBREL. In patients with exposure to varicella virus, temporarily discontinue ENBREL and consider prophylactic treatment with Varicella Zoster Immune Globulin.
Autoantibodies may develop with ENBREL, and rarely lupus-like syndrome or autoimmune hepatitis may occur. These may resolve upon withdrawal of ENBREL. Stop ENBREL if lupus-like syndrome or autoimmune hepatitis develops.
The use of ENBREL in patients with Wegener's granulomatosis receiving immunosuppressive agents (eg, cyclophosphamide) is not recommended.
Based on a study of patients treated for alcoholic hepatitis, exercise caution when using ENBREL in patients with moderate to severe alcoholic hepatitis.
The most commonly reported adverse reactions in RA clinical trials were injection site reaction and infection. In clinical trials of all other adult indications, adverse reactions were similar to those reported in RA clinical trials.
In general, the adverse reactions in pediatric patients were similar in frequency and type as those seen in adult patients. The types of infections reported in pediatric patients were generally mild and consistent with those commonly seen in the general pediatric population.
The use of ENBREL in patients receiving concurrent cyclophosphamide therapy is not recommended. The risk of serious infection may increase with concomitant use of abatacept therapy. Concurrent therapy with ENBREL and anakinra is not recommended. Hypoglycemia has been reported following initiation of ENBREL therapy in patients receiving medication for diabetes, necessitating a reduction in anti-diabetic medication in some of these patients.

J.J. Watt makes one-handed catches against JUGS machine during practice
"What can't J.J. Watt do?" has become a familiar refrain when talking about the Houston Texans defensive end, who was recently voted the top player in the NFL by his peers.
The Texans were in Richmond, Virginia, for the first of three days of joint practices with Washington, and upon conclusion of Thursday's workouts, Watt did something he does fairy regularly.
He put in some work on the JUGS machine, catching passes. That's right, the defensive end who caught three touchdown passes last season was working on his hands. Well, his hand. He was wowing the onlookers with a series of one-handed catches. One, two, three, four in a row.
Watch the video here.
Just the day before, after a morning workout in Houston, in front of a full set of bleachers with Texans onlookers, Watt was running routes and catching passes from quarterback Ryan Mallett. Watt is certainly a showman, but when it pays dividends on game days, the Texans are glad to be a part of the show.

Women's Ultimate Fighter.
I heard this being mentioned in a Dana White interview with some Swedish reporter, what's your take on it.
Honestly, as much as I abhor women's MMA, I'd love to see a Women's TUF. In fact, I think all TUF's should be with women. Just for the shenanigans in the house rather than the actual fights.
I don't like seeing attractive women beat each other up. If they all looked and acted like Cyborg I'd watch.
ever heard of "fight girls"? this is the show where Michelle Waterson comes from. more like Muay Thai/Kickboxing stuff than MMA, but still, a little like TUF. Brandon Vera's wife also was featured in the show
the pros
- hot chicks
- fighting
the cons
- the don't really show the fights, more like "extended highlights"
- the drama was kinda meh
but yea, I've seen season 1 (not sure if the ever did a season 2, but season 1 felt like it was season 2 because they kept reffering to something that happened beforehand)
it was also fairly hard to come by (found a torrent back in the days, took me weeks to complete)
I honestly hate women striking. I'd much rather watch them grapple. And it's not even a sexual thing....I just don't feel striking is an inter-gender activity...I mean hell, even with Cyborg, she's basically a man with all the T she injects.
Surely a woman's version of TUF would defeat the object of the winner getting a UFC contract. Id imagine every woman on the show would get a contract as the depth of woman's MMA is terrible
Seriously these kind of comments piss me off. Narrow minded, hypocritical sexist bullshit. What is so different about two women fighting as opposed to two men? Do you know what the answer is besides plumbing?
Nothing. Not. A. Damn. Thing. You basically don't want these women to be able to make a living doing what they love because you don't want to watch it. The exact same attitude that almost killed mma to start with.
Yes. This is not even a joke. It's fact. Few women have the natural athleticism and coordination to strike at a high level, and the ones that do (see Cyborg) are highly suspect and might have ambiguous genitalia due to steroid use and testosterone injections. Just like Chyna from the WWF.
Probably that women aren't naturally predisposed towards combat. It's simple science, really.
Well yeah, that's generally how it works.
The fact that you even had the nerve to type such bullshit amazes me.
qq moar please.

ManU Flotation Begins Amid Heavy Criticism Of Glazer Family
Published August 1, 2012
TOUGH SELL: REUTERS' Oran & Lacey reported that the IPO "may be a tough sell" in the U.S. given the lack of U.S. publicly traded sports teams to compare to, and given that many Americans "don't regard football as a top sport." The company's latest financials may also "give investors pause." Revenue for the fiscal year '12 is expected to be between £315-320M ($495-503M), down 3-5% from the previous year (REUTERS, 7/31). BBC's Richard Anderson wrote that ManU fans "aren't happy." Looking at the terms of the proposed share sale, "it's not hard to see why." Only "part of the proceeds" will go toward paying down the club's $680M debt, with "a significant chunk going directly to the Glazers themselves." ManU Supporters Trust CEO Duncan Drasdo said, "Supporters are going to be very angry about this. The Glazers have already cost United more than £550M ($863M) in debt-related fees, and now we have another slap in the face as they help themselves to half of the proposed [sale] proceeds" (BBC, 7/31). In London, Rob Smyth opined that the Glazers are "the naffest magicians in history." He wrote, "Abracadabra! Watch hundreds of millions of pounds turn to dust. Hey presto! Watch Cristiano Ronaldo disappear and return a year later as Bebe. Shazam! Watch the Glazers trouser half the money from the IPO that was supposed to ease the club's elephantine debt." He continued, "It seems half the money will be going straight to the Glazers' cavernous pockets" (GUARDIAN, 7/31).
SHARE PLAN: In London, James & Rushe wrote the flotation further angered supporters "after it emerged that senior employees at Old Trafford stand to benefit from a share scheme worth up to £204M ($320M)." A "2012 Equity Incentive Award Plan," as it is described in the prospectus released on Monday, "has raised questions among some United fans" as to whether Manager Alex Ferguson and CEO David Gill "stand to personally profit from the Glazers' decision to list the club on the New York Stock Exchange." United refuse to comment on the situation. A United spokesperson said, "Under the regulations of the SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission], we are not permitted to disclose the contents of the document." Ferguson and Gill have "both staunchly defended the American owners in the past, much to the dismay of those that have protested against the way that the club has been run since the Glazers' leveraged buyout in 2005." Only nine days ago, Ferguson said the Glazers were "great" and suggested "the majority of real fans will look at it realistically and say it's not affecting the team" (GUARDIAN, 7/31)
RISE AND FALL: The prospectus states that ManU's total club revenues "in the year to June 30 are expected to be down by as much as" 5%, at $494-501M. Much of that is "due to a reduction of as much as £15.2M ($23.8M) in broadcasting income in the light of United's early exit from the Champions League." But commercial revenues "are up" by 13% to £117M ($183.3M) thanks to "new sponsorship deals and a north American promotional tour." The prospectus states that the company "was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on April 30." It also "outlined the club's future commercial strategy -- including a 'regional sponsorship model' across the world and an expanded MUTV" (MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS, 7/30).

Sting Ray Photo Photographer
Ed-WlPhotographer Male Eindhoven, Noord–Brabant, Netherlands
My MM URL: http://www.modelmayhem.com/EdWl
Mayhem # 2717681
About MeThough I have photographed all my life, I started modelphotography a few years ago and got to like it very much.
I am definitely not the greatest photographer, I try my best and try to make the shoots fun.
My work goes from portraits, through glamour, boudoir, pin up, to 'tasteful' nude work, all within the models limits.
Most models I get through 'word of mouth' or recommendation, so a good reputation is key here: I am not an ass-grabber, treat models with respect and try not to touch without prior consent. As a result, most models will gladly schedule a next shoot with me.

1. What exactly is the lingerie game? You're going to love this. While on my bachelorette party, we did the traditional lingerie shower—when I opened each gift, we nicknamed everything…for instance "Whip It Real Good" had a nightie and flavored whipped cream in it. Another one was "Red Hot" and it was a red romper…get the idea? So then you pack bags with tissue and the tags into your suitcase and each night your hubby gets to pick which one you wear! My MOH did it all for me and it was totally fun!
2. Where did we get our koozies printed from? I'll recap all the vendors and such later, but we used Discount Favors online—they were super fast, inexpensive, and they changed the artwork just the way I wanted it to resemble a Jack Daniel's bottle…these were a big hit at the reception!
3. Where did you get all of your outfits/bathing suits/dresses? First of all, I shop a lot in Nashville at local boutiques and such...Blush, Muse, and Shop Around the Corner are just a few of my favorites. With other online retailers, I find a lot of my tops and dresses at Francesca's Collections as well as Forever 21, Loft, ModCloth, and Lulus. As for the bikinis, most of mine come from Victoria's Secret--I know the way their sizing runs, which makes it pretty simple when ordering.
4. What color are your bedroom walls painted? When we moved in to our house, they were a horrid baby blue--with the thought of our master boudoir being a serene and calming room, we decided to go with a light gray...this exact shade is from Behr called Porpoise and it's available from Home Depot.

National Survey of Family Growth, Cycle 6, 2002
National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), Cycle 6, 2002 was conducted by the
National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Cycle 6 was based on a national
multi-stage probability sample designed to represent the civilian noninstitutionalized
population of the United States, 15-44 years of age. Interviewing for the NSFG
was conducted from January 2002 to March 2003 by the University of Michigan.s
Institute for Social Research under contract with NCHS. In-person interviews
were completed with 7,643 females 15-44 years of age and with 4,928 males 15-44
years of age. The sample of females and the sample of males are independent
samples consisting of unrelated and unacquainted people.
The purpose of the survey is to produce national estimates of: factors affecting pregnancy-including sexual activity, contraceptive use, infertility, and sources of family planning services; factors affecting marriage, divorce, cohabitation, and adoption; what men and women do to raise their children; and mens and womens attitudes about sex, childbearing, and marriage. The data from the NSFG are used by NCHS and other agencies as the basis for reports and studies on fertility, marriage and cohabitation, contraception, and related issues.
The 2002 NSFG data are divided into three files. The Female Respondent File (Data Set R4-R7) contains most of the information from the Cycle 6 female questionnaire and uses the individual respondent as the unit of analysis. This data set contains 3,087 variables for 7,643 cases. The Female Pregnancy File (Data Set R8) uses the pregnancy as the unit of analysis and contains data for each pregnancy (regardless of the result) for all of the respondents. Several related variables from the respondent file are included as well. This data set includes 243 variables for 13,593 cases. The Male Respondent File (Data Set R9-S1) contains most of the information from the Cycle 6 male questionnaire and uses the individual male respondent as the unit of analysis. This data set contains 1,993 variables for 4,928 males.

The Motion Picture Association of American, in conjunction with the Record Industry Association of America and big Internet providers, has commissioned an elementary school curriculum to teach children the value of copyright and the evils of online piracy.
As if the schools need another thing to teach.
The proposed curriculum for kindergarten through sixth grade, called ôBe a Creator,ö is still in draft form. But a leader in the effort told a House subcommittee she hoped the curriculum would be tested in California this academic year and eventually adopted nationwide.
It stresses the ôimportance of being creative and protecting creativity,ö with topics such as ôRespect the Person: Give Creditö and ôCopyright Matters,ö the Los Angeles Times reported.
As Wired.com first reported, the curriculum is being prepared by the California School Library Association and the Internet Keep Safe Coalition in conjunction with the Center for Copyright Infringement, whose board members include executives from the MPPA, the RIAA, Verizon, Comcast and AT&T. The Internet Keep Safe Coalition partners with Google, Microsoft, Facebook and others.
Two observations:
The motion picture industry is so influential Ś after all, the Obama administration is trying to get the MPAA to put information about Obamacare into its products Ś that it can lead its own anti-piracy campaigns, and doesnĺt need to take up classroom time.
But if students wind up being subjected to such a curriculum, it should also stress the importance of reading the original work of reporters and editorial writers on the websites of the newspapers that employ them, rather than on the sites of content aggregators or search engines. Not that weĺre being self-serving or anything Ś at least no more so than the MPAA.

Simple, melodic, up-tempo power rocker with loads of lead guitar. The chorus brings in a string section to add to the adrenalised intensity. Hints of Satriani and Foo Fighters. The mid drops to just hi-hats and rimshots and clean picked guitar arpeggios only to slowly build in intensity once more. Contains drums, bass, strings and piles of guitars.
Fast adrenalised rocker with great power and suspense. Think Foo Fighters meeting Green Day at a Black Sabbath hosted Grand Prix. Riffy, punkyand full of explosive energy and surprises. Contains guitars, bass, strings , organ and drums.
A truly drama-filled riff-fest. Would suit a movie car chase or any adrenalised sport project. Right from the groovy ambient intro, big guitars pile in and carry you of into Riffland. The verse drops to a cool bass and drum groove until the chorus part's screaming guitar chords and pumping bass sweep you away with intensity. Contains guitars, bass, drums and strings.
High energy, exciting, adrenalised heavy rock track. huge guitars combine with monster beats, dramatic strings & spacey ethereal clean guitars to make a rollercoaster of a ride. would suit action/sports/thriller projects.

Sparks will fly
I started with the Carefree team who are the department set up to deal with extra needs. Nearly 20 minutes on a chargeable 0845 number with a nice lady keen to help. After checking with her manager she gave me the number to the power systems team which was also an 0845 number. Carefree believed that because it was a physical change required (ie a new power supply rather than just a new meter) that it had to be the power supply team who authorised and did the work. They believed that because it related to disability there shouldn't be a charge but couldn't state that for sure.
So then the power supply team insist it's not their responsibility and must be sorted out by the Carefree team, even reading out an email to me which they'd all received explaining such issues must be dealt with by Carefree. I was given a national landline number to contact the carefree team this time so at least the 10+ minutes I've now been on hold since being transferred aren't chargeable. Unfortunately the second person I spoke to at Carefree insisted it was the responsibility of the power supply team and that they can't deal with it.
Finally, I've found I've been on hold so long the carefree team are closed for the day. So now I have 3 different phone numbers for the carefree team and no better idea of who to contact or how.
So, to Scottish Power: Your customer service is appalling. The individual operators are all pleasant and helpful but passing people back and forth between different departments whilst both insist it is the other departments responsibility is pretty poor and indicates a lack of training and communication. In terms of disability access and DDA it's so complicated and insistent upon avoiding responsibility that it's probably also in breach of DDA. Banging my head against a brick wall would be more productive than trying to deal with Scottish Power as a company and probably produce cheaper electricity too!

What ever happened to the can I help you and when you tell them what you want they dig and dig until the find the answer to your question, oops that doesn't happen does it, it just happens to be the way I do things, hence why I sit next to the buzzer in our office because everyone knows I will sort whether it is my job or not...fingers crossed...xx

Don't let me mention BT and BT Internet. I went for BT Internet as I specifically did not want one company to fight the other.
They are entirely separate companies ............
Weeks later I got it sorted out but with no help from BT.
When you start to think they are all out to get you, you are not parinoid, they really are.

You gotta love governmental authorities. It's always fun when the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. Sadly, you see it far too often in the private sector, as the cable company I do support for is a prime example of about as fucked up a bureaucracy as anything you might find in the government.

Not relevant but got me today. I got asked coming out of the supermarket which line rental I used for my phone. I said utility warehouse (gaurented(SP!!!) cheaper services than any other provider services) And since it wasn't the answer she wanted as I passed by she muttered FUCK OFF to meI was just amazed.

I can sympathise with you. Once I was on hold for so long the battery in the cordless phone went flat *sigh* Good luck with it and thanks for the EDS link I have passed that on to Veronica.. (she is still not in labour yet) xoxoxoxo Kim

Oh dear just switched to Scottish Power....
Bendy, the problem is that you don't match up with the list of boxes they must tick. The staff are forbidden to think for themselves and all intitiative is stifled and/or punishable.If all else fails keep moaning at your MP until something is done.
And aske them for a refund on your telephone bill.

Aargh, Scottish Power. They tweaked my pre-payment meter (ghastly rip off already) so that off peak electricity cost the same as peak time. It was winter and we were using storage heaters. My flatmates and I, stressed, penniless students all, had a huge fight over the electricity, until we realised what was happening.
Long and dreadful story short, they just messed us around appallingly, never gave back the money they stole from us, never replied to letters or emails, never apologised. Stick it to them, Bendy!

Here in the States we ask for the supervisor or department manager when we can't get what we need from the custie service peon. I've been a peon and it's typically not a problem to hand people off to the higher ups. Of course the more polite you are, the nicer treatment you get! (EXTREMELY difficult to do when the company is completely irrational and pissing you off! But the rules of custie service seem to apply regardless.)
Once you get a human being on the phone, ask to speak to the manager/supervisor on call! They have more power to make things happen and typically know the rules better.
Good luck!

A handy site you should bookmark : http://www.saynoto0870.com/search.php
You can put in an 0845 number (or more expensive 0845) and most of the time it will give you the geographic number that it actually maps onto. There are a few for scotish power, sometimes it even has sneaky 0800 numbers too :)
Good luck with your future battles.

Yes good luck. There is always abonther battle isnt there. SO frustrating.

I was just about to put you onto say no to 0870 as well. Ruf managed to get several bank landline numbers when they fucked up. I have to say that he had a nightmare with Scottish Power over a meter issue. Good Luck x

Hiya, completely unrelated to your post but I just wanted to let you know that I work for the ambulance service and today I was called to a lovely lady with EDS.
Purely as a result of having seen your blog I knew a bit about her condition and I really think that fact made a difference to her and to how I helped her.
Keep up the good work, you never know whose lives you're touching.

You're right, those utitlity companies have a license to print money (most of it ours). And they're all total tosh.
I remember signing up on the door to Powergen because the guy showed me a print out of the cheapest gas + electricity company to be with (of course it was Powergen). The next day I used a price comparison site online only to find out they were way down the league tables - I'd been stitched up!
I promptly returned the 7 day cancellation form thinking that was that. Well, you guessed it - 30 days later I get a call from British Gas saying that they were sorry to lose me and that everything had now been transferred.
So, trust no-one! (from utility companies anyway)...

Artist Bio
Grapevine, TX - I call Grapevine, Texas home. I was actually born in Frankfort, Michigan but spent only a few months there. Before moving to Texas I lived many years in Oklahoma where my parents had a ranch, but Grapevine has been home to me for the last twenty three years. Living in Texas is living with the fable of the west. Texas is so rich in history and legend that one cannot help but seek it out and try to share it with others.
I never made that great decision to become an artist; I just always knew that is what I wanted to be. I studied with professional artists from the time I was in junior high school. I received an art degree at Oklahoma State University but my real art education came from studying with and knowing some of the great American artists such as Bettina Steinke, Donald Teague and Richard Schmid.
I have been painting professionally for almost 30 years. Most of those I painted exclusively in watercolor. I now work in both watercolors and oil. My art is about sharing the great and fascinating world around me. When something moves me, be it a story or a scene, I want to express it in color and light so that the viewer can share the feeling. I am drawn not only to the American West as it exists today but also to its history.
I was a feature artist at the 2006 Rendezvous at the Gilcrease Museum. I have been an invited artist to the Prix de West for twenty two years and to the Masters of the American West for eleven years.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
The Custodian lands syndicates are a project of John L Fitzgerald, a property wheeler and dealer that has made money for his Coampnay JLF in the 90's.
He established new Companies that had bought parcels of Land Custodian Lands and invited investors to invest in the Land project to develop and sell the Lands to the public to build a house and Land, all very typical.
However the perfoamnace of these syndicates are yet to show any profit to the investors and now the investors are being told they may not even get their capital back, whilst not an illeagal scam the payments from the syndicates to the JLF company are indicating that there is only one winner and hundreds of losers in these deals.
It equates to approx $46Million AUD in investors funds, both loss on the Capital and the time opportunity loss of the money invested.
Investors need to be aware that the risks they are taking are perhaps higher than the prospectuses have indicated.

* * * Kurds Deny Russian Claims That Turkey Buys IS Oil
The Moscow Times
Dec. 04 2015 18:41
Last edited 18:43
Russia's Defense Ministry / YouTubeA screenshot from a video showing tanker trucks transporting oil.
The Iraqi Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) on Thursday said that satellite photos presented by Russia's Defense Ministry this week showing Islamic State militants selling oil to Turkey were in fact images of Kurdish trucks, the Turkish state-run Anadolu news agency reported.
KRG spokesman Safeen Dizayi told the news agency that the Islamic State, an extremist group banned in Russia, is not selling oil to Turkey — as President Vladimir Putin and a number of Russian officials have asserted in the two weeks since Ankara downed a Russian military jet.
The head of KRG's energy commission, Serko Cavdet, told Anadolu that the images showed Kurdish tanker trucks transporting oil from a region under their control to the Turkish Port of Ceyhan, and that the Islamic State could not have transported oil through Kurdish territory, as they are fighting the extremist group.
"The KRG exports its oil via pipelines and tankers to Turkey for sale to buyers around the world," Cevdet said. "The Russian satellite images showed these tankers … Russia has no proof of any oil transactions between Turkey, the Kurdish region, and the Islamic State," he said, referring to IS by another name.
Turkish officials have also denied Russia's claims. Turkish President Recep Erdogan went so far as to promise Putin he would step down if allegations that Turkey was buying IS oil were revealed to be true.

What's in a Name? Russia Replaces 'Islamic State' With 'Daesh'
Germany one by one debunks Russian claims that Turkey trades Daesh oil
Germany's weekly news magazine Der Spiegel (The Mirror) analyzed individually every satellite image displayed at the Russian briefing last Wednesday allegedly showing 'proof' of Turkey-Daesh oil trade.
In the analytical report published on the web, Der Spiegel specified all the locations and dates of the satellite images shown by Russian Deputy Minister of Defense Anatoly Antonov.
At a briefing in Moscow on December 2, organized by Antonov, Russian defense ministry officials and the public were shown satellite images which 'revealed' columns of tanker trucks loading oil at installations controlled by Daesh in Syria and Iraq, and then crossing over the border into neighboring Turkey. Antonov had claimed that Turkey was trading oil with Daesh on an 'industrial level'.
The satellite image shown above, dated November 14, 2015, was shot in the region of Zakho in northern Iraq and shows Zakho and Turkey. However, this image in no way verifies the claims of Putin as these regions are not controlled by Daesh, but in fact Peshmerga-controlled areas. In addition, trade between Turkey and the Kurdish Regional Government in northern Iraq is still continuing under normal conditions.
This image, also dated November 14, shows the southeastern Turkish town of Silopi in Şırnak. Zakho is located directly opposite of Silopi. Known as one of the safest areas on the Iraqi border, Zakho shelters many refugees fleeing Iraq and terrorist organizations like Daesh in Syria.
This satellite image was taken in the east of Syrian city Deir ez-Zor city. According to Russia, 390 oil tankers are seen in this image. But an explanation about the date of the image was not given. It is vague what Antonov wants to prove with this photo. Deir ez-Zor is currently partly in hands of the Assad regime in Syria and partly in Daesh's control.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had last week denied that Turkey procures oil from anything other than legitimate sources.
Subsequently, the U.S. had said that it rejected the premise that the Turkish government was in league with the militants to smuggle oil. "We frankly see no evidence, none, to support such an accusation," State Department spokesman Mark Toner had said.
Later on, Sherko Jawdat the chairman of the KRG Parliament's Energy Committee, had said on Thursday that the oil tankers shown in the aerial photos and footage presented by Russia as evidence of the alleged trade are in fact carrying oil from the KRG to Ceyhan terminal in southern Turkey.
Furthermore, KRG spokesman Safin Dzayi had said his government was saddened by Russian accusations, adding that "Russia's explanations are based on wrong sources" as it strongly rejected Russian accusations.
Dzayi explained that the oil extracted from the Duhok and Badinan regions is largely shipped to Turkey through pipelines, and the remaining amount is being shipped with tankers.

Records: Denver-32-19, second place in the Northwest division; Orlando- 32-21, 1st place in the Southeast division. Denver on the road- 11-13; Orlando at home- 13-11
Line: Magic by 4
The Magic play the final game of their five game home stand against the Denver Nuggets, and also the final game for both teams before the All-Star break. This is the second and final meeting between the two clubs, with the first meeting going to Denver, 113-103 back in January. The Magic hold a commanding 25-13 lead in the all time series.
Denver is lead by the highest scoring duo in the NBA in Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony, who average 26.9 and 26.2 points per game respectively. Both Iverson and Anthony can score from anywhere, and Iverson is one of the best players in the history of the game at his combo guard position. Despite all the scoring that both Iverson and Anthony do, the MVP of the Nuggets may be center Marcus Camby. Camby is one of the league's best rebounders and shot blockers, and can dominate a game without having any plays run for him offensively. Rounding out the Nuggets starting lineup is the often injured, but talented forward Kenyon Martin, as well as journeyman point guard Anthony Carter.
The Nuggets depth includes the high flying J.R. Smith, former Magic point guard Chucky Atkins, dirty-work extrodinaire Eduardo Najera, and three-point specialist and all-around scorer Linas Kleiza.
Statistically speaking
The Nuggets have some of the NBA's most talented offensive players, and they rank fourth in the league in points scored (106.7 ppg.). Denver is 15th in field goal percentage (45.33%), 21st in three point shooting (34%), 13th in free throw percentage (76.07%), 16th in adjusted FG% (49%), 6th in field goal percentage allowed (44.49%), 25th in opponents ppg. (103.6), 19th in opponents three point shooting (36%), 1st in steals (9.3/gm.), 2nd in blocked shots (7.0/gm.), 27th in turnovers (15.2/gm.), 2nd in rebounding (45.0/gm.), and 3rd in assists (23.7/gm.).
Here's how Orlando matches up:
6th scoring (103.9 ppg.), 5th FG % (46.9%), 10th three point shooting (37%), 22nd FT% (72.74%), 2nd in adjusted FG% (53%), 11th FG% allowed (45.1%), 21st opponents scoring (100.8 ppg.), 22nd opponents three point shooting (36%), 26th steals (6.3/gm.), 21st in blocked shots (4.4/gm.), 14th turnovers (14.2/gm.), 13th rebounding (42.2/gm.), and 21st in assists (20.2/gm.).
Best matchup for Denver:
Allen Iverson vs. Jameer Nelson- The player that Nelson grew up idolizing in Philadelphia is probably the toughest matchup in the NBA for him. Iverson can drive to the basket on anyone, and score from virtually anywhere inside of 25'. If Nelson can keep Iverson from going off (scoring 25 or more), he will have done his job. Iverson scored 21 points and dished out 13 assists in the first meeting between these two clubs.
Best matchup for Orlando:
Rashard Lewis vs. Kenyon Martin- Kenyon Martin is a natural shot blocker who will get sucked down in the paint from time to time. Lewis's quick release should get him some open shots from the outside, and Rashard is quick enough to take Martin off the dribble.
Keys to a Magic victory:
1. Leave it all on the floor. This is the final game before the All-Star break and the Magic have five days off. Come out with energy and bring energy all the way through on both ends of the court. Denver is on the final game of a three game road trip and the Magic catch them on the second half of a back to back.
2. Challenge the shot blockers. Marcus Camby is one of the best defensive players in the NBA, and Kenyon Martin is a great shot blocker in his own right. If the Magic get soft down around the basket they will be playing into the Nuggets hands. Challenge the hoop and keep challenging it. They will get their fair share of blocks, but they won't get all of them.
3. Guard the three-point line. Denver has great three-point shooters and Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson generally suck in the defense with post ups and penetration and then kick out. The Magic have to be quick to rotate or else they'll give up a bunch of points from behind the arc.
This is a big game for Orlando, it could be the difference between a disastrous 1-4 home stand and a just disappointing 2-3 home stand. They need to come out and run the ball as much as possible against a tired Denver team that's been on the road and played less than 24 hours ago.
For our gamblers out there:
I'm 2-4 in my last six games against the spread so take my advice accordingly. Orlando hasn't played good defense in quite a while, Denver has great offensive weapons. Take the visiting Nuggets and the points.

1971 International Harvester Scout 4X4
Priced to sell and fully ready for summer.!!!!!!Hello, for sale is my 1971 Scout 800-B, yes it's a true 800-b. If you know your IH Scouts then you know that the 800-B's were the last to roll off the production lines in what was a limited production run of approx 6 months from Sept. of 1970 to March of 1971, ending just before the new model Scout II's were introduced. As you can see this is a highly modified Scout, but is very easy to drive every day normal street/highway driving. This truck is a clean California "Turnkey" truck. The body and frame are all original, the powertrain and suspension have been changed out. The 350 motor and 400 turbo trans are GM, and each have approx 25,000 miles on them since going into the Scout approx. 6-7 years ago. The motor is very strong with a 4-barrel intake and carb., no smoking or burning of oil. The trans shifts great, the truck goes down the highway nicely does not track or wander, drives nice and straight . It's got power steering and power disc brakes, which make the truck very easy to handle. A nice set of headers and flow-master exhaust give the truck a nice sound. The truck has a spring over-axel lift and rancho shocks (8) four up front and four in the rear. Axels are 3/4 ton GM with 8-lug wheel hubs. Everything is heavy duty on this truck. The Dana 44's front and rear are great, 4x4 works great, not sure of the gears but believe them to be 3.54. The truck easily does 60-70 on the freeway. Nice, custom roll cage; the interior features carpet front to back, door panels, jumpseats in the rear and bucket seats up front. The soft-top is new and the bikini top will also be sold with the truck. Both gas tanks work as do the all lights, LED's front and back. It's got a 12,000lb wench with remote cord and KC running lights. Nice set of black fender flares. The paint on the truck is showing its age a little but the body is very straight- no rust or bondo. The truck will need to be repainted if you're looking for a high level show finish. Wheels and tires are also in great shape. Tires have approx 80-90% of the tread left on them. This is a great opportunity to have an outstanding Scout for a reasonable price, don't let the lift on this truck scare you away because if you don't like the lift you can always lower it to the height you desire. I've had serval of these Scouts but never one like this it's very special, here's my YouTube link,https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCoEVNfPhbfGNLoGSfxeB-AQwhich will show some of the other scouts I've had/restored. If you have interest and want to workout a deal prior to the end of my listing don't hesitate to call me, like I said this truck won't last long Thanks661-340-3497

"There are some statistics of them maybe having some people running the ball against them relatively well, but most people that have hurt them running the ball have hurt them with the option game," Richt said. "The more traditional zone, power, sprint draw, the things that we do the most, they've been much more tougher and physical against those types of runs."
With a trio of burly linebackers and a solid defensive line, Kentucky is able to be physical at the point of attack, but struggles against teams with a more dynamic approach to their running game.
Against Florida, Kentucky allowed 362 yards rushing. Against Mississippi State, the Wildcats gave up another 348 yards on the ground. Those two teams averaged 7.3 yards per rush, while the rest of Kentucky's opponents have managed just 3.7 yards per carry.
"It makes you want to put some option in, doesn't it?" Richt said with a smile.
He may have been joking, but Georgia does have a few wrinkles to its running attack that could prove effective. Branden Smith's speed has helped him score on two long touchdowns already this season – one on a reverse and one from the Wildcat package. Backup quarterback Logan Gray offers a more athletic option at the position, too, while receiver Rantavious Wooten has seen action on draw plays and reverses as well.
While those remain in the playbook, offensive coordinator Mike Bobo said it's still unlikely the option game will play much of a role this week.
"We always have that going into certain game plans, but the teams that really have had a lot of success on them were teams that did that exclusively, quarterbacks that run that had more than just one or two wrinkles," Bobo said. "Sometimes you think it might be easy to add this or that, but most teams that do that, they do that exclusively and that's their system."

Social Media Marketing - with Fashion Background !
Προϋπολογισμός €12-18 EUR / ώρα
MORPH. We're an eCommerce driven startup/men's apparel brand based in Paris and London
We've developed a new fitting system that solves a lot of eCommerce problems. We've recently done a crowdfunding to validate our concept, selling a line of T-shirts, and it did very well. This shows that our innovation has potential.
You can find our crowdfunding page here for more info and a video: [url removed, login to view]
We prolonged our campaign through Indiegogo in Demand so now we are using that as a temporary sales platform. We will soon be on Amazon as well and are considering our own eCommerce site.
We would like to do Facebook marketing - ads in the meantime to:
- sell more products (via Indiegogo first and then Amazon launchpad)
- define more and better target markets
What we have already:
We've ran Facebook ads during and after our campaign and got really good ROI's and CPC's. We've got an analysis of our results. So you can build on that.
--> We are looking for an experienced Facebook marketer that knows how to set up engaging ads, split test them, explore new target markets, 'exploit' them when we've found a good one through follow up ads and sales offers. And preferably with experience in retail or fashion ads.
So basically you have to be both inventive and analytical.
Of course we can also comply with any requests you might have to improve conversion and results if needs be.
We recommend you have a look at the Indiegogo link I posted and get in touch if you're excited and feel up for the job.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Foreshadowing in Macbeth
Foreshadowing Examples in Macbeth:
These words are filled with dreadful irony and foreshadowing. Considering how Macbeth has already imagined a floating dagger prior to killing Duncan and his current agitated state, the likelihood that one or both of them will mentally suffer as a consequence of this action is a distinct possibility.
Knocking is a motif throughout Macbeth. After Macbeth and his wife complete their hideous murder, they hear a knock within that causes them to immediately fear and begins their slow descent into guilty madness. The Porter imagines Hell's Gate and unwittingly invokes two symbols. First, Macbeth's castle begins to resemble hell as he has committed a hideous crime. Second, the Porter reminds the audience that bad deeds, such as murder and suicide, are met with punishment in hell. This foreshadows not only Macbeth and Lady Macbeth's coming end, but the promise of punishment in the afterlife for their ambition. It is unclear whether or not this line was the basis for the modern Knock, Knock joke.
Shakespeare uses these signs and warnings to foreshadow that more unpleasantness will happen. The eclipse and the story of the owl and falcon to show how nature has become unbalanced as a result of Duncan's murder.
Lady Macbeth uses this speech to calm Macbeth's guilty conscious. However, her flippant response to Macbeth's worries, essentially there's no changing what has happened so forget about it, comes back to haunt her when she begins to feel pangs of guilt. Her "what's done is done" later transforms into "what's done cannot be undone," as Lady Macbeth becomes overrun with guilt.
Even though the last vision upset him, Macbeth still trusts the rest of the information the three witches gave him. Therefore, by making this statement, Macbeth doesn't realize that he is actually damning himself, foreshadowing what happens to him as a result of his belief in the witches' prophesies.
