Item description for Life As A Cactus by B. J. Nicol...Life is hard and getting harder all the time. We face tough challenges each and every day. God knows what we are going through and He has equipped us to be SURVIVORS This book looks at the cactus and ourselves in how we are able to "Survive and Thrive." The cactus is an interesting plant and this volume will let you in on some of its secrets; how God designed it to live and survive in harsh conditions. Through analogies you will learn how you are able to do the same. God has always intended for us to triumph in trials and be over comers in ordeals. He fashioned us in ways to accomplish that. He has also provided tools for us to use to that end. God wants you to succeed, to be victorious In reading this book, you will learn how you can do that. B.J. Nicol is a native of Ohio. She is married with three grown children, four step children, one natural grandchild and many step-grandchildren. Her family brings her much joy. She has spent her whole life in music, singing first with her family, then with a contemporary Christian group, then as worship leader in her church. After temporarily losing her ability to sing because of throat surgery, she began to seek the Lord for a new ministry outlet. He encouraged her to write. This is her second book. Her first published book is "God's Pottery." She has also written several short stories and had one true story included in a compilation book, "Praise Reports" published by Xulon Press. When she is not being a wife, mother, grandmother, homemaker and writer, she is a freelance photographer.

Charleston Area Medical Center, Charleston, WV
PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of clinical pharmacy consults on the clinical and economic outcomes associated with severe sepsis and septic shock.
METHODS: Charleston Area Medical Center (CAMC) encourages clinical pharmacy consults to promote adherence to the recommendations for early goal-directed therapy, which is achieved through direct interaction with the nurses and physicians at the patient's bedside. Since the implementation of clinical pharmacy consults at CAMC's General Hospital (February 2006), data has been retrospectively collected during February –July 2006 in order to assess the impact of clinical pharmacy consults on mortality associated with severe sepsis and septic shock. Additional data was collected from the same six-month period in 2005 in order to assess the influence of consults on hospital length of stay (LOS) and cost associated with hospitalization for the treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock.
RESULTS: A total of 115 patients were admitted to intensive care units at the General Hospital with ICD-9 procedure codes for severe sepsis and septic shock during the study period. Clinical pharmacy services were consulted in 58 (50.4%) of these patients. The implementation of clinical pharmacy sepsis consults resulted in a 21.8% improvement in outcome when comparing mortality rates of patients with consults versus those without (40.7% without consult vs. 18.9% with consult). In addition, hospital LOS for patients with sepsis decreased by 24% (3.9 patient days) over the studied period when compared to February –July of 2005, accounting for a projected one-year cost avoidance of $600,000.
CONCLUSION: Implementation of clinical pharmacy sepsis consults has resulted in the achievement of several significant endpoints including a reduction in sepsis-associated mortality, hospital LOS, and a decrease in costs associated with hospitalization for severe sepsis and septic shock.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: A clinical pharmacy consult model for sepsis promotes multidisciplinary management of a complex clinical condition. This multidisciplinary model has resulted in improved outcomes, reduced hospital costs, and an overall improvement in the management of sepsis at an institutional level.

Related Poem Content Details
Daniel Borzutzky grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, of Chilean heritage. He has published a collection of fiction, Arbitrary Tales (2005), a poetry chapbook, Failure in the Imagination (2007), and three full-length volumes of poetry: The Performance of Becoming Human (2016), winner of the National Book Award; The Book of Interfering Bodies (2011); and The Ecstasy of Capitulation (2007).
Borzutzky's work is often humorous and satirizes political figures and contemporary culture. Amy Groshek, reviewing The Ecstasy of Capitulation for CutBank, commented: "His syntactic strategies mirror closely those of absurdist poets, but he cleverly injects thin strings of narrative, using historical events and speakers, and the tone of these speakers, to give his poems coherence. His specialty is a manic, obsessive jargon peppered with legalisms, bureaucratic and corporate newspeak, and a positively twenty-first century fanaticism."
Borzutzky has translated a number of works by Chilean writers, including the poet Jaime Luis Huenún's Port Trakl (2008) and the fiction of Juan Emas,...

@robertm2sLocale: Lake Tahoe
Weight savings: the new Arc'teryx Alpha FL jacket weighs 11 oz (it's Active Shell), while the old Arc'teryx Alpha SV jacket in Pro Shell weighs 19 oz. The FL is $400, the SV is $600. With the Gore-Tex Active Shell, the lining "is integrated into the membrane." Squashed Bird is the only maker that I noticed that uses Active Shell.
@simplespiritLocale: .
Haglofs is using it. RAB is using NeoShell. Mountain Hardware is using eVent rebranded as DryQ Elite. Not sure about others.

As Herbert Smith embarks on its elections for senior partner, one thing ought to be on the minds of the two candidates – how is the firm going to regain momentum?
Litigation head David Gold and practice partner Richard Fleck, who are in polite but cold-eyed competition for the job, don't have a crisis on their hands. Most City firms would kill to be in a position where average profit per equity partner is at £700,000.
On that basis, Gold and Fleck have an easier run than their counterparts at Lovells and Simmons. Lovells' business is going well, but Lesley MacDonagh's resignation has unearthed a number of fault lines. The partners' dining room is currently seething with enough plots and counterplots to make New Labour look like a bunch of Quakers.
There's even more to play for at Simmons, which is still only limping along. Finance head Mark Dawkins has presided over a strong performance in his department. Indeed, the finance group is always delighted to let the world know it has outperformed the rest of the firm, which can only help Dawkins' election campaign.
Herbert Smith may have smoother internal politics and strong numbers, but it has drifted nevertheless. It's been strangely unable to capitalise on its M&A successes of 2000 and 2001, and now faces serious competition with Lovells and Ashurst to be the top choice outside the magic circle.
Lovells may have to vote in a hardcore City type to bolster its boardroom standing, but it's had roles in most of the biggest bids recently, notably the Telegraph Group. Ashurst, despite its current wobbles, has managed to get onto most of the top deals since Safeway, when it acted for the winning bidder WM Morrison. It got the nod from Philip Green after Freshfields had to pull out, and it landed Lloyds TSB on Abbey after Linklaters opted for RBS.
By contrast, Herbert Smith was nowhere to be seen on Safeway and has been invisible on Abbey – a deal the entire City has been steaming into. Insiders cry conflicts, but it seems that Herbies' desperation to stay close to private equity giant KKR is costing the firm mandates. Mooning after one client, however powerful and acquisitive, could be a tactical mistake, especially if Slaughter and May gets the call from KKR's gatekeeper Simpson Thacher.
Fleck and Gold, take note: Herbert Smith may have been the world's favourite law firm two years ago, but it just got a little too comfortable. Time for the hair shirt.

She showed me a picture of the house where she was born.
a picture of a peaceful country scene
She asked children to draw pictures of their family.
I'll stand over here, and you can take the picture.
Some viewers are suffering from poor picture quality on all channels.
I have such happy pictures in my mind of those times.
She had a mental picture of Samuel's face.
My friends had a rather distorted picture of my life.
The report paints a rather gloomy picture of life in the inner cities.

The picture has changed a lot in the last couple of weeks.
The general picture was one of neglect and decline.

About Me
I've been described as a palate cleanser, I've also been likened to a litmus test...
I am an elite level circus performer and part time stunt woman/trouble maker. I make my living with movement, so am enamored by the power of stillness and photography.
I model because I love creative collaboration. My favorite relationships with photographers are those that grow over time and friendship develops along the way. When we come to trust each other, laugh together, and plot sometimes ridiculous concepts, the images become even sweeter rewards in my opinions. Fear not though, while I am playful and quirky, I am equally reliable and show up with my game face on. That said, I'm also happy to join you for that singular concept you've been dying to shoot with someone of my type.
I am delighted to shoot beauty, quirky and unusual concepts, etc. On a more limited scale, I'm available for athletic, circus or acrobatic concepts. I must be very selective about the latter as the movement is difficult to shoot well and the tax on the body is much greater than normal posing. Those sessions are reserved for paid work, outstanding portfolios, or trade (Depending on your strengths, I might flip & twirl for you if you shoot something boring like head shots for me, or ridiculous like me wearing little boy's clothes in a cabinet full of cereal boxes). I am not currently shooting nudity, though some implied is negotiable depending on the concept. I am happy to do TF if our dreams of photographic mischief seem destined for each other. I do things like this, but usually much higher and not in a zoo cage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmUk0RceXGM#t=81
I also know that 4'11" is about a foot too short for what many of you are seeking. It's cool and I'm not offended... If you want to stick me in a line up of fashion models or giant men with beards, I'll bring my wicked sense of humor and put on my pouty serious-model-face like I belong in Vogue.
The nitty gritty:
*Hair: I am no longer bald. Hair is currently similar to first 8 images in my portfolio.
*I am somewhat modified. A little pierced, just a little tattooed, a little scarified. Ask if you're curious.
*Compensation- Clothes, treats, awesome new friends, TF, beer, charity donations or cash are all accepted depending on the situation.
Thanks for reading my diatribe.
Happy shooting!

International Surveys on Biosecurity Education 2. Online Awareness-Raising and Education Dr. Larbi Baassi: 3. Taking the Biosecurity online course from a student's perspective Cathy Bollaert: 4. Further Developments Biological Threats Spectrum • Natural Disease – Public Health • Accidental Disease – Biosafety • Deliberate Disease – Biosecurity • Laboratory • Wider Surveys of Biosecurity Awareness • Analysis of interactive seminars conclude that there is little evidence that participants: a. regarded bioterrorism or bioweapons as a substantial threat; b. considered that developments in life sciences research contributed to bio-threats; c. were aware of the current debates and concerns about dualuse research; or d. were familiar with the BTWC • Lack of biosecurity awareness requires explanation: One possible explanation: it does not feature in their university education. University Education Surveys Results of biosecurity education in life science degree courses in Europe: • Only 3 out of 57 Universities offered some form of specific biosecurity module (all optional modules) • Similar results were found in Israel and in the Asia-Pacific Region • Meetings in Bradford and Tokyo 2010/11 EMR 21 Lectures: A.

Garbo's is a Gran Canaria institution. This glamorous gala cabaret has been serenading audiences since 1997 with showstopping song and dance numbers, and enough sequins to make Strictly's wardrobe department jealous. The atmosphere is electric, and you'll be tapping your feet and singing along with the rock and pop tunes before its dazzling finale.

... which contrasted with my mental soundtrack to match the island of Dean Martin and Herb Alpert. Another noteworthy musical moment was during a mandatory playground stop, a 'bogan rev head' drove by in his hot rod, blaring out Supertramp's 'Dreamer'. This seemed anachronistically quirky.
There is a romantic myth of the original inhabitants of the island, tall Aryans in the middle of the ocean off Africa. Supposedly they had no ...

Travel Blogs from Valencia
Holiday with Polly and Maquina Motors
... did smell, so got moved again to a non smoker. Thought that would be an end to the room merry go round, but nearly had to do another move when water started leaking from the air con through a light fitting. Not really keen on water and electric mixing, but the hotel guy sorted it so we got to stay where we were.
Sunday and Monday Polly and I just had a walk about different areas, and used the tour bus that you can ...
Burn, baby, burn
... almost a month.
We are spared the craziness of Fallas by living in our little suburb. We also decided to spend most of the Fallas week in Catalunya. But we returned to Valencia in time to tour the most famous, winning Falla structures, and witness the midnight fireworks and burning of the neighborhood Fallas in the traditional small town near to us, La Eliana.

... and walls then the second part was down to the area which was done up for the America's Cup in 2007. There was a massive opera house which looks like it has some inspirations from the Sydney one but also a very Roman theme too as it looked very like a Roman war helmet. Turns out the architect was a being sued for substandard products as the whole outside had fallen off and it was beginning to rust but very modern looking compared to the rest ...

We got out of their quickly and spent the next 40 minutes driving past sky scrapers and over the top resorts reminding us of the Gold Coast, not our scene at all. We didn't really know much about Valencia except that jac had a friend from home who lived there. Mitch Leach and his georgous wife Laura along with Martina 3.5 years and ...

This helped us navigate the streets so much easier it made me think how great it would be to come back with our kids when they could haul their own backpacks (except, by then, they'd be teenagers, ugh!) We found our hotel, Lotelito, which is a wonderful loft apartment for 7 people. In the words of our friend, Butch Gentry, this place was, "quaint as ****!" ...

|RE: SourceHandlerImpl not Poolable or ThreadSafe
|Mon, 05 Nov 2001 08:56:24 GMT
The SourceHandlerImpl cannot be ThreadSafe! Each sitemap has it's own SourceHandler because it adds its own SourceFactory for the cocoon: protocol. The root sitemap has another SourceFactory for the cocoon: protocol than a subsitemap as the cocoon: protocol is resolves relative to the current sitemap. So, if the SourceHandlerImpl is ThreadSafe there is only one SourceFactory for the cocoon: protocol and the relative resolving does not work. In fact this is not a nice solution, but up to now the only working one. You can of course make it Poolable.

Is that not what I said?Mature
"Well, what did you do?" Micheala asked as he looked into Brita's eyes and saw the wheels there turning in her head.
"Eating her is what I am doing. It was after all kind of obvious. Was it not. My mouth was there, and it was there. What else would I be doing! I ask you?" Balls suggested, a bead of saliva spilled out the corner of his mouth, to trickle down to his chin.
"Sheba, who is this?" the woman asked.
"If it not you?" Sheba stopped sucking to answer her, "Than who is it?"
Balls addressed.
"Someone I met in the bar. Just. What does he think he is doing?"
Kilutas screamed as she retrieved her laser pistol to put me out of my misery." Balls supplied
"Since she fired a shot at me, so what am I supposed to do? Let her shoot me?" Balls expounded
"So, what did you do?" Dancer asked as he belted himself into his seat.
"I did it to stay alive as I have my life to protect!" Balls related
"And where were you?" Micheala asked as Lotus stepped out from where she was hiding, she to wondered as to why he was named this. And now, form the sound of it she was going to find out.
"On her ship!" Balls stammered.
"Did you know who you were making out with?" Lotus demanded.
"Not at the time, no! I found out later that she was blind, the woman I was eating out." Balls whispered, but everyone heard him whisper it.
"And you figured this was okay!" Simone asked as she climbed into the gunner's nest above the helm.
"What was I supposed to do? Stop and decide to introduce myself to her, while I was doing this! I suspect it would spoil the mood. Would you not, think this...?" Balls asked, tears were streaming down his face.
"The woman is the commander of the sector we were in, that he killed. We damn near got ourselves killed doing this. Thus, he is named Balls." Dancer stated, happily. It was always better, when they were able to point this out for other people.
"Check with the tower!" Baxter advised

I'm a 71 year old seriously thinking of doing the John Muir Trail next summer. My 70th year summer has been doing peaks (Cathedral, North Peak, Echo Peaks, etc.), so after promising the wife I wouldn't do that next year, I want to do the JMT instead (ultralightly).
Any recommendations for the best books for planning?
Keith Sauer
@kdesignLocale: Mythical State of Jefferson
The classic, now in it's 13th edition is "Starr's Guide"
A guidebook w/ sections on what to expect, etc.
@btomskyLocale: San Francisco Bay Area
I found Winnett and Morey's "Guide to the John Muir Trail" to be very useful in planning my trip. I think Wilderness Press does a good job with all their publications.
@tarbubbleLocale: dirtville, CA
i found Winnett's guide to be much more useful than Starr's when we planned for the JMT. we didn't carry either, but used the Tom Harrison maps on the trail. you can carry the special JMT set he sells, as that's the best bargain for weight and money. however, they are essentially strip maps and won't show you much beyond the trail and its adjacent secnery. i prefer to pay the weight penalty for larger maps so that I can identify landmarks that are further away. just my 2 cents.

The History of Earth Sciences at SU
The history of the Department of Geology (now Earth Sciences) at SU begins with the arrival of Alexander Winchell in January of 1873 as first chancellor and professor of geology, zoology and botany. He was the first to occupy ordained chair 13 (geology, mineralogy and botany) in the new University which had been formed under the sponsorship of the Methodist Church. Winchell actually was the second choice after Rev. Erastus O. Haven (later second chancellor of SU) declined the appointment because of other commitments (Galpin, 1952).
Winchell, born in Duchess County, New York in 1824, had been educated at Wesleyan (graduating in 1847) and had won distinction as professor of geology, zoology and botany at the University of Michigan as well as serving as director of the Michigan Geological Survey. He also had been president of the Masonic University at Selma, Alabama, and attracted considerable attention with his book on "Sketches of Creation." The Board of Trustees and Faculty were impressed with his accomplishments and offered him the position; after consultation with friends and family he accepted.
Winchell however soon became disenchanted with being chancellor. It required an inordinate amount of time and there was the constant problem of raising money for the fledling university. So after only two years he resigned as chancellor but remained on the faculty teaching for another five years. A year later he accepted a position at Vanderbilt University until he received a call to return to Michigan.
Winchell was first of all a scientist and a scholar. He published almost 100 papers including nine books. A list he kept of his literary compositions numbered 566 (Winchell, 1892). He was cofounder of the Geological Society of America and of The American Geologist . He has been called the "Father of GSA" and served as its third president in 1891.
In February and March 1876 the University all but suspended activities as Winchell organized a school of geology providing instruction in elementary and advanced geology and in addition delivered 10 lectures on "The Derivative Origin of Species." The following year he repeated his performance with eight popular lectures, "Chapters from the Lifetime of a World." Apparently, he returned to the campus only once after leaving (in 1879) and then to give the J. Dorman Steele lecture in 1888. He died in Ann Arbor in 1891.
The Department has recognized his contributions with the Alexander Winchell Distinguished Alumni Awards. Winchell Hall was opened in 1900 as a university dormitory (demolished in 1984 to make room for Schine Student Center).
The first classes of geology were given in Hall of Languages (HL), although some of them were given in the Myers Block in downtown Syracuse. Room 31 HL was listed as the location of Wednesday and Friday of Winchell's course on geology for seniors during the winter term (13 weeks) of 1875. Geology was required of seniors in the classical curriculum during their third term.
By the time Winchell left in 1879, geology was an established course in the university. He was replaced by Lucien M. Underwood (instructor and later professor of geology, botany and zoology, and 1889 professor of mineralogy), who had been a student of Winchell's and had just obtained his PhD from SU in 1879. He was followed by the Rev. Charles W. Hargitt, a biologist by training, who was professor of biology and geology from 1891-94. Apparently no geologist was on the faculty from 1894-95 and again from 1886 to 1900 although geology courses were offered. Edmund Chase Quereau was professor of geology and mineralogy from 1895-96. Others during the late 1800's who taught geology were Frank Smalley, who received a Masters in Geology but a PhD in Latin; Oscar Rogers Whitford, a mineralogist and later with King Gold Mining and Developing Co., and Edward Henry Kraus, a student of German and mineralogy, who later distinguished himself at the University of Michigan.
In 1900 Thomas Cramer Hopkins was appointed professor of geology. Hopkins had been educated at Stanford University and had just received his PhD from the University of Chicago. Previously he had been an instructor in chemistry at DePauw University, assistant state geologist of Arkansas, and assistant professor of geology at Penn State College. He was assisted in mineralogy by Edward Kraus who received his PhD in 1901 from the University of Munich. Kraus left for Michigan in 1904 and was replaced by Charles Henry Richardson (PhD, Dartmouth) in 1906. Richardson rose through the ranks from instructor to professor and Chairman of the Department of Mineralogy by 1909; Burnett Smith (PhD, University of Pennsylvania) was appointed an instructor in 1907.
It was in 1907 that the small three-man department moved to their new quarters on the third floor of Lyman Hall of Natural History (which also housed the Departments of Biology, Zoology and Forestry). The Geology Department library was moved from HL to Lyman during the term break in early 1908.
Thomas Cramer Hopkins (1861-1935) was an inspirational teacher; he was well liked and respected. Often the Geology Club met at his home located adjacent to the campus. Hopkins' prestige in academics was "rated in part by the number of his published works" (almost 50 titles) and "his wide acquaintance among geologists of the times added significantly to the benefits to be derived from his teaching" (Holmes, 1977). In 1958 W.B. Heroy endowed scholarships for the outstanding junior and senior majoring in geology in honor of his beloved professor.
The Geology Club was founded on 4 November 1905. The first Vice-President was William Bayard Heroy (PhB, '09), later benefactor and supporter of the Department. The Club was reactivated in the late 1920's and has been active since sponsoring field trips, seminars, and social activities. A professional geology fraternity, Pi Eta Sigma, was founded on 27 November 1915 and was active for about ten years.
The first part of the 1900's was a busy one, although activities were interrupted by two World Wars and seriously curtailed by a major depression. George B. Cressey became chairman of the combined Department of Geology and Geography in 1931. Hopkins and Richardson both retired that year. By 1945 the Department consisted of five faculty members, and some 50 advanced degrees had been awarded.
The New York State Geological Association had roots in Syracuse. Announcement of the first annual intercollegiate geological field trip meeting held in central New York (1925) and hosted by Hamilton College was issued by SU's Harry N. Eaton, secretary. Eaton then served as president in 1926 for the 2nd meeting in Syracuse. In addition, the 13th (1937), 22nd (1950), 36th (1964) and 50th (1975) meetings were held in Syracuse.
After World War II the Department of Geology and Geography was split and George Cressey (PhD in both geology and geography) became Chairman of geography and Earl T. Apfel became Chairman of the Department of Geology.
Apfel was followed by William M. Merrill as Chairman in 1958 and John James Prucha in 1963.
Ernest H. Muller was interim Chair in 1970-71 and Daniel F. Merriam became the first Jessie Page Heroy Professor and Chairman in the spring of 1971. Merriam was Chair until his resignation in 1979. He was followed again by interim Chair Ernest Muller from 1979 until John Dickey assumed the position in 1981. Dickey remained chair until 1988. John James Prucha stepped in as interim Chair from 1988-1990 after a stint as Associate Provost.
Marion (Pat) Bickford resided from 1990-1993.
Cathryn Newton was Chair of the Department from 1993 until 2000 when she became the Dean of The College of Arts & Sciences.
She was succeeded by Doug Nelson, who was Chair from 2000 until his untimely death in 2002.
Pat Bickford was interim Chair until 2003 when Scott Samson, began his duties.
Jeffrey Karson became Chair in 2007.
Don Siegel became Chair in July 2013 and currently holds that position.
Numerous scholarships and awards have been established over the years to honor outstanding students and alumni. In 1961, Chauncey D. Holmes provided for an award for excellence in beginning geology, which is given annually to students with the highest grades in introductory courses and show the most promise in sciences. The Newton E. Chute Graduate Award was established in 1975 to be given annually to the graduate student judged outstanding based on scholarship, service to the Department, and professional promise. In 1976 the Faye M. Merriam Scholarship was endowed for a full-time SU undergraduate geology major to be awarded on academic achievement, need and professional promise. The Marjorie Hooker Award (AM 1933), established in 1977 in support of research, is given annually to the thesis or dissertation proposal judged outstanding by the faculty.
An auspicious event took place in the history of the Department in 1966. William Bayard Heroy approached the University with an offer to contribute money towards a geology building. Heroy had been supporting the Department through gifts for scholarships, equipment and research during the previous ten years. His offer was accepted graciously and the building named in his honor. The building was completed near the end of 1971 and the Department moved between semesters in December of 1971 and January 1972 from their third-floor quarters in Lyman where they had been since 1907 to the spacious new Heroy Geology Laboratory (HGL).
Heroy also endowed a distinguished chair of geology in honor of his first wife Jessie Minerva Page Heroy (PhB '08). D.F. Merriam was the first to occupy this position, which has been held by all subsequent Chairs.
Heroy (1883-1971) was active in many geological organizations and had served them in many capacities (Conselman, 1974). He was cognizant of his education as a factor in his success both as a professional geologist and in business, and as a result he gave generously to his alma mater, Syracuse, to Southern Methodist University, where he spent much time in later years, and to the Paleontological Research Institution in Ithaca. He gave money both to SU and SMU for buildings to house their geology departments. In recognition of his many accomplishments he received many awards and honorary degrees. He died in 1971.
The Department changed its name in 1993 from the Department of Geology to the Department of Earth Sciences, to more accurately reflect the range of teaching and research found within the Department. The change in the name of degrees offered by the Department did not occur until 2009.

Eating Disorders -ARTICLE
hey this is more of an article rather than a story but i wanted feedback
its about eating disorders and allows the reader to read about people who know someone who has suffered from a disorder or has had one.
Eating Disorders:
What are they?
Image is always an important factor, especially in our teenage years, our personal image is high up on our priority list. Everyone feels there is something wrong with them, big bum, fat thighs, fat tummy, you name it, we will always find something that makes us unhappy with our image. So we do exercise, go on diets, but what happens when we go to the extreme?
People who take dieting, exercise and weight loss to the extreme are at a high risk of suffering from an eating disorder. There are three common forms of eating disorders, anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Within this article I will be giving information and stories of these different eating disorders.
Firstly, anorexia, what is it?
Anorexia is when someone develops a fear of weight gain, and therefore reduces their food intake until they are starving themselves. Although they will begin to lose an unhealthy amount of weight in a short period of time, the victim will perceive their body image as 'fat' and will therefore continue to eat as little as possible.
Hannah* 18 from UK has suffered with a mild form of anorexia since she was 15, but is slowly recovering.
"It started when I was in my third year of secondary school that I stopped eating proper lunches, I just have half a sandwich and a glass of water, no breakfast either, then when I got home from school I would go out with friends asking my mum to give me money for dinner but never actually buying anything, I'd tell my friends that I'd already eaten or that I was having dinner when I got home later that night. But I wouldn't. I'd look in the mirror and wonder who it was looking back at me, I saw bulges of fat on my stomach. My friends used to say I was fine how I was but I never really believed them. After a few months my best friend Gina* started to notice the weight I was rapidly losing and would buy me Happy Meals from McDonalds and say it was rude not to eat it when she'd spent her money on it, so I would eat it. Eating made me feel ill and disgusting within myself. I used to feel fat and bloated even after eating a kids meal. Gina* kept buying me food when we went out and her mum would make me sandwiches when I went round, but I wouldn't eat at home. Then in my forth year I met my current boyfriend, Mark*, he was so nice to me about my weight and made me feel good about my appearance so I began to eat properly again. But our relationship started to go down hill and I returned to the fat girl in the mirror, I'd cry for hours asking why I was so fat and ugly. Mark* would sit there eating in front of me, not offering me anything to eat, which made me think he agreed that I didn't need to. I became horribly thin again, my hips were really sticking out and my ribs were very visible. Once again Gina* noticed and asked me about my eating habits, I told her I didn't want to eat and that I wanted to lose weight, but she just told me I was already too skinny to lose weight and asked if she could tell someone who could help me. I refused but agreed that she could help me and that I would eat more to gain weight. I'm still under weight 3years later and I faint quite often from lack of food, but I am recovering, I've realised that it's in my head and only seem to not eat when I'm upset, angry or nervous about things happening in my life. I feel lucky in a way that I haven't suffered with a major form of anorexia and that I'm able to recover a lot easier than some cases."
What are the symptoms of anorexia?
Physical: severe weight loss, dizziness, difficulty sleeping, poor circulation, and feeling cold.
Behavioural: wearing baggy clothes, excessive exercising, denial, and lack of concentration.
Psychological: depression, intense fear of gaining weight, mood swings, and feeling guilty after eating.
The next most common eating disorder is bulimia. Those who suffer from bulimia seem to do the opposite from those with anorexia. They tend to consume a lot of food in one session, but then, usually in secret, make themselves vomit or take laxative tablets so no weight is actually gained. Although they are eating enough calories to keep their bodies healthy, the constant vomiting or toilet use can damage their digestive tract, mouth, teeth, and salivary glands. The yo-yo pattern of their diet can also mean that those with bulimia rarely take in enough vitamins and minerals to remain healthy.
Lucy* 19, doesn't suffer from bulimia but tells the story about her older sister Amy*, who is now 22.
"It all started when Amy* was 13, I was 10 and we had to rush to hospital because Amy* had collapsed in the bathroom. I remember crying as I hugged her unconscious body, worried about whether she was going to be ok. What had happened to my older sister? After several tests the doctors said that Amy* was suffering with bulimia and that she was trying to make herself vomit after dinner but had slipped and bashed her head on the seat and then fell unconscious in her own vomit. She had to stay overnight to be monitored by the doctors whilst I questioned mum and dad about bulimia half the night. They didn't explain it very well at first; being so young I wouldn't have understood regardless. After that she was sent away for several weeks at a time to a special clinic and only came home some weekends. Thankfully after a year Amy* was well again and remained at a healthy weight. She continued to visit the special clinic once a month for a further year to make sure she was recovering properly."
What are the symptoms of bulimia?
Physical: sore throat/swollen glands, stomach pains, dry or poor skin, difficulty sleeping, damaged or sensitive teeth.
Behavioural: Eating lots of food in one go, being sick after eating, being secretive, abusing laxatives.
Psychological: feeling guilty after eating, feeling ashamed, depressed and guilty, mood swings and feeling out of control.
At last but certainly not least, the final eating disorder is binge eating. People with a binge eating disorder also consume a lot of food in one sitting but unlike bulimics they do not get rid of the food they have consumed by vomiting or taking laxative tablets and therefore often become obese as a result to the high food intake. This can then lead to a wide range of side effects in the long-term such as, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and heart disease.
What are the symptoms?
Physical: weight gain
Behavioural: eating a lot, eating inappropriate foods, being sensitive.
Psychological: mood swings, feeling depressed and out of control, emotional behaviour and feeling guilty after eating.
All the causes for eating disorders are still being researched, however, researchers have found some psychological, interpersonal, and social factors which can lead to an eating disorder.
Psychological Factors: low self-esteem, feelings of inadequacy or lack of control in life, depression, anxiety, anger, or loneliness
Interpersonal Factors: Troubled family and personal relationships, difficulty expressing emotions and feelings, history of being teased or ridiculed based on size or weight, history of physical or sexual abuse
Social Factors: cultural pressures that glorify "thinness" and place value on obtaining the "perfect body", narrow definitions of beauty that include only women and men of specific body weights and shapes, cultural norms that value people on the basis of physical appearance and not inner qualities and
If for any reason you feel you or someone you know is suffering with any of these eating disorder don't suffer in silence, tell someone.

Lucky: Forgetting Rule 49? Senior Officers go in first.
Bonkers: But we're partners. Shouldn't we go in together?
Lucky: Last time we went in together, I wound up chin deep in wrinkle cream, my pants full of leg wax and the Chief on my back.
Lucky: Bonkers, Rule 42 distinctly forbids police vehicles to travel any more as of a distance over two feet above ground.
Lucky: We are looking for a clown, not a little old lady from Pasadena. Police Rule #27.
Bonkers: 27... 27... Right after 26... No using your badge as a paint scraper?
Lucky: No chasing the wrong crook!
