Use: Labeled Indications
Candidemia, acute disseminated candidiasis, Candida peritonitis and abscesses: Treatment of candidemia, acute disseminated candidiasis, Candida peritonitis and abscesses
Esophageal candidiasis: Treatment of esophageal candidiasis
Prophylaxis of Candida infections: Prophylaxis of Candida infections in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT)
Hypersensitivity to micafungin, other echinocandins, or any component of the formulation
Dosing: Adult
Aspergillosis, invasive (salvage therapy) (off-label use): IV: 100 to 150 mg once daily. Minimum duration of therapy is 6 to 12 weeks, although duration is highly dependent on degree/duration of immunosuppression, disease site, and evidence of disease improvement (IDSA [Patterson 2016])
Candidemia, acute disseminated candidiasis, and Candida peritonitis and abscesses: IV: 100 mg once daily; mean duration of therapy (from clinical trials) was 15 days (range: 10 to 47 days). Note: For treatment of candidemia, IDSA Candidiasis guidelines recommend a total duration of antifungal therapy of at least 2 weeks after the documented clearance of Candida from the bloodstream and resolution of candidemia-associated symptoms in patients without metastatic complications; may transition to fluconazole (eg, after 5 to 7 days in non-neutropenic patients) in clinically stable patients, with fluconazole-susceptible isolates and negative repeat cultures (IDSA [Pappas 2016]).
Candidiasis, chronic disseminated (hepatosplenic) (off-label use): IV: 100 mg daily for several weeks, followed by oral fluconazole therapy (IDSA [Pappas 2016])
Candidiasis, empiric therapy (suspected invasive candidiasis in non-neutropenic ICU patients) (off-label use): IV: 100 mg daily; treatment should continue for 14 days in patients showing clinical improvement. Consider discontinuing after 4 to 5 days in patients with no clinical response (IDSA [Pappas 2016]).
Candidiasis, intravascular infections (native or prosthetic valve endocarditis, infection of implantable cardiac devices, suppurative thrombophlebitis) (off-label use): IV: 150 mg daily. For native or prosthetic valve endocarditis, therapy should continue for at least 6 weeks after valve replacement surgery (longer durations in patients with abscesses or other complications); for patients with implantable cardiac devices, therapy should continue for 4 to 6 weeks after surgery (4 weeks for infections limited to generator pockets and at least 6 weeks for infections involving the wires); for suppurative thrombophlebitis, after catheter removal, continue for at least 2 weeks after candidemia has cleared. Note: Step-down to fluconazole therapy is recommended in clinically stable patients and fluconazole-susceptible isolates with negative repeat cultures (IDSA [Pappas 2016]).
Candidiasis, osteoarticular infections (osteomyelitis or septic arthritis) (alternative therapy) (off-label use): IV: 100 mg daily for at least 14 days, followed by fluconazole therapy (IDSA [Pappas 2016])
Candidiasis, oropharyngeal (refractory disease) (alternative therapy) (off-label use): IV: 100 mg once daily (IDSA [Pappas 2016])
Empiric antifungal therapy (neutropenic fever) (off-label use): IV: 100 mg once daily (IDSA [Patterson 2016])
Esophageal candidiasis: IV: 150 mg once daily; mean duration of therapy (from clinical trials) was 15 days (range: 10 to 30 days). Note: IDSA Candidiasis guidelines suggest considering a transition to oral fluconazole therapy once oral intake tolerable. In patients with fluconazole-refractory disease, continue micafungin for 14 to 21 days (IDSA [Pappas 2016]).
Prophylaxis of Candida infections: IV:
In hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: 50 mg once daily; mean duration of therapy (from clinical trials) was 19 days (range: 6 to 51 days)
In high-risk ICU patients in units with high incidence of invasive candidiasis (alternative therapy; off-label use): 100 mg daily (Pappas [IDSA 2016])
Dosing: Geriatric
Refer to adult dosing.
Dosing: Pediatric
Candidemia, acute disseminated candidiasis, and Candida peritonitis and abscesses: Infants ≥4 months, Children, and Adolescents: IV: 2 mg/kg once daily; maximum: 100 mg once daily
Esophageal candidiasis: Infants ≥4 months, Children, and Adolescents: IV:
≤30 kg: 3 mg/kg once daily
>30 kg: 2.5 mg/kg once daily; maximum: 150 mg once daily
Prophylaxis of Candida infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Infants ≥4 months, Children, and Adolescents: IV: 1 mg/kg once daily; maximum: 50 mg once daily
Primary antifungal prophylaxis in allogeneic HSCT (when fluconazole is contraindicated; off-label dosing/population; guideline recommendation): Infants ≥1 month, Children, and Adolescents <19 years: IV: 1 mg/kg once daily; maximum: 50 mg once daily (Science, 2014)
Dosing: Renal Impairment
No dosage adjustment necessary.
Poorly dialyzed; no supplemental dose or dosage adjustment necessary, including patients on intermittent hemodialysis.
Dosing: Hepatic Impairment
No dosage adjustment necessary.
Aseptically add 5 mL of NS (preservative free) or D5W to each 50 or 100 mg vial. To minimize foaming, gently swirl to dissolve; do not shake. Further dilute 50-150 mg in 100 mL NS or D5W (when used in children the final concentration should be between 0.5-4 mg/mL; concentrations >1.5 mg/mL should be administered via central catheter). Protect infusion solution from light (it is not necessary to protect the drip chamber or tubing from light).
For intravenous use only; infuse over 1 hour. When used in children, administer infusions >1.5 mg/mL via central catheter to minimize risk of infusion reactions. Flush line with NS prior to administration.
See Trissel's IV Compatibility Database
Store at 25°C (77°F); excursions permitted to 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F). Reconstituted and diluted solutions in D5W or NS are stable for 24 hours at room temperature. Protect infusion solution from light (it is not necessary to protect the drip chamber or tubing from light).

Pregnancy Risk Factor
Pregnancy Considerations
Adverse events have been observed in animal reproduction studies. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Use only if benefit outweighs risk.
Patient Education
• Discuss specific use of drug and side effects with patient as it relates to treatment. (HCAHPS: During this hospital stay, were you given any medicine that you had not taken before? Before giving you any new medicine, how often did hospital staff tell you what the medicine was for? How often did hospital staff describe possible side effects in a way you could understand?)
• Patient may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain, insomnia, anxiety, dizziness, or constipation. Have patient report immediately to prescriber signs of kidney problems (urinary retention, hematuria, change in amount of urine passed, or weight gain), signs of liver problems (dark urine, fatigue, lack of appetite, nausea, abdominal pain, light-colored stools, vomiting, or jaundice), signs of low blood sugar (dizziness, headache, fatigue, feeling weak, shaking, tachycardia, confusion, increased hunger, or sweating), signs of electrolyte problems (mood changes, confusion, muscle pain or weakness, abnormal heartbeat, seizures, lack of appetite, or severe nausea or vomiting), tachycardia, bruising, bleeding, or severe loss of strength and energy (HCAHPS).
• Educate patient about signs of a significant reaction (eg, wheezing; chest tightness; fever; itching; bad cough; blue skin color; seizures; or swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat). Note: This is not a comprehensive list of all side effects. Patient should consult prescriber for additional questions.

"Content" is the lifeblood of business. Today's companies generate staggeringly large amounts of content -- and not just on the Web and intranets. Managing Enterprise Content is about getting your arms around all that content, reusing it more effectively, driving out cost -- and driving more business value from every word your people write.
Finally, here's a discussion of content management that doesn't require years of SGML experience writing zillion-page manuals for Boeing! This book has been carefully crafted for multiple audiences: content managers seeking to define and implement unified content strategies, information architects working in any media, authors looking for practical advice on more effective writing and collaboration, and decision makers hoping to realistically assess the ROI of content management.
You'll learn how to plan (and compare your options for) content reuse -- and when reuse simply isn't practical. And you'll discover how to perform an enterprise-wide content audit, identify the "pain points" you need to address first, and break down the "silos" of separate content development that may be your biggest obstacle.
Ann Rockley and her colleagues cover information modeling, workflow, XML, tools, delivery systems -- and especially the difficult cultural and technical transition to unified content management. There's plenty of experience behind these recommendations. Whether you're a global enterprise trying to regain control over content, or a smaller company trying to squeeze more value out of every data sheet, this book is indispensable. Bill Camarda

Falling AsleepMature
Narrator: Adrian "Arrow" DeFlèche
"I'll fetch the nurse," Luna tells me.
I nod, and let go of her soft wrist.
My eyes are on Jake now. We are alone.
"Allow me," he says, putting a hand upon my nose as I clench it tightly to stop the blood from flowing.
"Are you sure?" I ask, my voice sounding hummingly weird with my nostrils blocked.
He is sure. Too sure -- of himself. I can sense the energy flowing up his arm, and it's not what it should be. The feelings he's drawing on aren't benign enough. It's no healing spell. I realize it just in time. I jump up, kicking him away as I do so.
Jake hits the wall with a thud, and I punch him across the face.
"Don't ever!" I spit the words at him.
They return, to see what I have done to make such a noise.
There's a pact of friendship broken in this. And all the quiet memories of time together, what do they mean? She's standing between us, now, in more than one way.
My nose is exposed. For some reason, it's no longer broken. It doesn't even hurt anymore.
How can that be? I wonder. Then I push it out of my mind, because I'm afraid of what she's about to say.
Shock is etched upon her beautiful face.
My eyelids feel heavy.
Then, her words stop short, and the room begins to spin.
Or, am I spinning? No, falling!
"Arrow!" she cries.
A faint grunt escapes my lips. And then, I pass out to the sound of Jake's laughter. Now, both his spells have taken effect. He healed me, at a cost to my own wakefulness.
I must be in Luna's arms, for I never hit the ground.
Now I dream, wanting only to return to what is real.

Releasing Nemo proves a disaster for native fish
EXOTIC predatory fish that could devastate local marine ecosystems are appearing off the US coast. These and other ornamental fish are thought to have been released by careless aquarium owners, and could harm fisheries, introduce parasites and endanger native species.
In a worrying development this month, scientists at the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary found a pair of orbicular batfish, a popular aquarium fish endemic to the Pacific Ocean. The fish were captured to stop them breeding and competing with local fish. The move follows increasing sightings of exotic species not native to the area, including popular aquarium fish such as orangespine unicorn fish, raccoon butterfly fish, several varieties of tang and angel fish, and the predatory lionfish. All come from the west Pacific, the north-west Indian Ocean and the Red Sea, yet they have been seen at 32 sites off Florida.
"It's a Finding Nemo story," says Brice Semmens, a marine biologist at the University of Washington, Seattle. "Individuals are releasing their pet fish with the best of intentions, but in the wrong ocean. It is a really bad idea."
The aquarium trade has long been suspected of introducing alien species, but the link has never been proved. So a team led by Semmens compared figures from imports of tropical marine fish into the US with sightings of exotic fish in the wild recorded by REEF, a non-governmental organisation, between 1993 and 2002. Statistical analyses on random samples confirmed that fish species imported in the highest numbers are those mostly likely to have been sighted off the US coast. The researchers ruled out the ballast water picked up and

#1 Ranked Children's Hospital by U.S. News & World Report
MyPatients provides referring primary care providers with secure access to their patients' information.
Boston Children's has launched the world's 1st program dedicated to offering hand transplants to children who qualify.

Read the latest blog by a Boston Children's doctor, clinician or staff member.
There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
It's natural for you to be concerned right now about your child's health—a diagnosis of Ebstein's anomaly can be overwhelming. But you can rest assured that at Boston Children's Hospital, your child is in expert hands.
Our cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, cardiovascular imaging professionals and other clinicians have extensive experience with all types of heart problems. Each year, we treat thousands of children, adolescents and even adults with a wide variety of heart defects and disorders.
In a normal heart, oxygen-poor (blue) blood returns to the right atrium from the body, and is pumped by the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery into the lungs. In the lungs the blood receives oxygen (and gives up carbon dioxide), then returns to the left side of the heart. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aorta out to the body.
In a normal heart, the tricuspid valve controls blood flow from the right atrium, the chamber that receives blood returning from the body, to the right ventricle, the pumping chamber that pumps that blood to the lungs for oxygenation.
But in Ebstein's anomaly, the leaflets that make up the tricuspid valve are malformed and are malpositioned too far down into the right ventricle. Sometimes, one of the leaflets is displaced downward into the ventricle, while another leaflet is larger than usual and may be abnormally attached to the wall of the ventricle.
When this occurs, blood leaks backward from the ventricle to the atrium. This causes enlargement of the atrium, and it can lead to congestive heart failure—a back-up of blood flow that results in a fluid buildup in the body.
In addition, an opening in the septum between the two atria that occurs normally in the fetus, called the foramen ovale, fails to close in some newborns with Ebstein's anomaly because of the high volume of blood in the right atrium. The opening, called the patent foramen ovale (PFO), allows the mixing of oxygen-poor blue blood from the right atrium with oxygen-rich red blood in the left atrium. This results in poor oxygen levels in the blood that circulates through the body.
There's a very wide spectrum of variation and severity with Ebstein's anomaly. The most severe cases are among the most challenging forms of heart disease—while the least severe forms are never even diagnosed, and children develop and function perfectly normally.
The severe forms of the defect cause such great enlargement of the heart—even prenatally—that the heart fills the baby's entire chest cavity and crowds out the lungs, which end up being far too small. So, extreme cases end up not being just a heart problem, but rather, a heart-lung problem. The prognosis for such cases isn't favorable, since by the time the baby is born, there's already irreversible lung damage.
The good news is that such severe cases are quite uncommon. Far more common are milder forms of the disease, which are treatable, with usually favorable prognoses.
In Ebstein's anomaly, the tricuspid valve is downwardly displaced and adheres to the interventricular septum. Part of the right ventricle is "atrialized," being located above the tricuspid valve. (abbreviations: Ao=aorta, LA=left atrium, LV=left ventricle, PA=pulmonary artery, RA=right atrium)
Often, Ebstein's anomaly occurs with one or more other heart defects, including:
Arrhythmias can occur, too. Patients who have Ebstein's anomaly may also have arrhythmias and abnormal heart rates that are associated with the condition. These may need treatment—usually by medications and/or catheter ablation (targeted destruction of affected tissue).
In 1990, Boston Children's doctors performed the first pediatric non-surgical repair of a cardiac arrhythmia, using catheter ablation to correct a rhythm disorder called Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. So, today, Boston Children's experts can call on our more than three decades' worth of experience with this procedure.
While relatively rare (one in every 10,000 babies), and it affects boys and girls equally.
Your cardiologist will help you create a long-term care program as your baby grows into childhood, the teen years and even adulthood. Most of our patients who've had congenital heart disease have an ongoing relationship with their Children's cardiologist.
We'll prevent and treat complications, and will advise on daily-life issues, such as exercise and activity levels, nutrition and precautions related to pregnancy. Throughout his childhood, you can help your child—and the whole family—by making sure he eats a heart-healthy diet, exercises regularly, and in the teen years avoids smoking.
Surgical techniques for treating congenital heart defects are continually being refined, and Boston Children's surgical success rates are very high. Nevertheless, your child will need periodic monitoring—and perhaps medication—indefinitely, since he could be at some risk for:
In relatively few cases, patients who've had surgery for Ebstein's anomaly may need additional surgery.
As a congenital heart defect, Ebstein's anomaly is a problem with your child's heart structure that he was born with.
The heart forms during the first eight weeks of fetal development. It isn't clear what causes congenital heart malformations, including Ebstein's anomaly, although research is underway to search for a genetic or environmental link.
Cyanosis (blue coloration of the skin) is the most common sign of Ebstein's anomaly in newborns and infants.
Call your health care provider immediately if your baby has a bluish color, or if your child is having difficulty breathing, is breathing rapidly, or seems to tire too easily.
Congenital heart defects usually occur sporadically (by chance), with no clear reason for their development. So, it's difficult to predict who's at risk. Familial cases have been reported, but no genetic link has been confirmed. Research is underway to search for a genetic or environmental link. In general, if you have a child with a congenital cardiac defect, the chance of more children having a defect is about 2 to 3 percent.
If you're a teen with a congenital heart defect, you have a lot to cope with. Besides the typical issues any teenager faces—from social acceptance to body changes and more—you'll also have to deal with medical appointments and procedures, some delay of your natural wish for independence, feeling different and assuming a lot of personal responsibility for maintaining your own good health.
If you feel overwhelmed, depressed or anxious through this important time in your transition to adulthood, speak to your doctor or counselor to get help.
If you were treated for congenital heart disease as a child, you're probably being followed by your cardiologist, since complications from early heart disease can arise in adulthood. In particular, if you had surgery for Ebstein's anomaly, you need lifelong monitoring—and possibly medication—since you'll continue to be at some risk for heart problems in the future.
Fortunately, Boston Children's can help adults with congenital heart defects. Many adults who were patients at Boston Children's as babies or children continue to be monitored by the clinicians who have followed them since childhood.
In addition, our Boston Adult Congenital Heart and Pulmonary Hypertension Service (BACH) provides long-term inpatient and outpatient care and advanced therapeutic options for patients with congenital heart disease and pulmonary hypertension as they reach and progress through adulthood.
BACH is an international center for excellence, with physicians and services from Boston Children's, Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

Even more impressive is that the events occurring in the three-minute-long video occur as they are seen in the original movie. Take a look:

Juni 2003
BeschreibungThe Unified Modeling Language has become the industry standard for the
expression of software designs. The Java programming language continues to
grow in popularity as the language of choice for the serious application
developer. Using UML and Java together would appear to be a natural
marriage, one that can produce considerable benefit. However, there are
nuances that the seasoned developer needs to keep in mind when using UML
and Java together. Software expert Robert Martin presents a concise guide,
with numerous examples, that will help the programmer leverage the power of
both development concepts. The author ignores features of UML that do not
apply to java programmers, saving the reader time and effort. He provides
direct guidance and points the reader to real-world usage scenarios. The overall
practical approach of this book brings key information related to Java to the
many presentations. The result is an highly practical guide to using the UML
with Java.

Chapter 17: Thy Name IsMature
Narrator: Cameron Jr. Archvale
"--and then she hands me my late slip without even answering my question."
"Hmm..." said Evelyn as she fiddled with her digital camera's settings. "That's unfortunate."
I gave Evelyn a puzzled look from across the lunch table, where I sat beside Vidal, my bag. We named my bassoon 'Vidal' some time ago, as a play-on-words about the salon brand-name Vidal Sassoon. It was a silly little inside-joke.
"How is that unfortunate, Ev?" asked Christina. "It means there's no reason for rocks to be thrown at the school, and that everything The Rogue has said about our friends is untrue. But you'd already known this, if you had bothered to come to the party."
"Joshua didn't invite me," she said with resounding apathy.
"Oh?" I was surprised. "Did he not want photos taken or something?"
She laughed awkwardly. "No, Joshua and I... we're just not good together, that's all. CJ, be a darling and hand me that story you and Chrisi are writing."
"Why the sudden interest in our collaboration?" asked Christina.
"Mmm... no reason."
"Well," I said, "if it's my turn to write a chapter, I have to pass today. I've got to write a reply to... a... umm... erm...--"
"Spit it out, or I'll do the heimlich!" said Evelyn.
Christina smiled, "Somebody got an anonymous looove letter."
"Oooh," said Evelyn, perking up over her twelve-grain bread vegetarian sandwich. "Do share."
I pulled it out of my binder, and passed it to Christina as she passed our story over to Evelyn. Then I looked up, and caught sight of someone in black at the end of one of the tables, sitting all alone. "Excuse me, I need to go grab Frith's attention."
"Who?" asked Evelyn, as Christina began to read aloud from the message.
I was thankful that they had already asked me about Crystal on the weekend, over MSN Messenger. I didn't want to discuss such things, especially in person. However, talking to them was easier than talking to Joshua. And then again, I did have an easy time teasing Brent with minor details...
Black hooded figure, slumped over a binder. Corner of my eye.
"One second, I think I see someone I want to introduce you all to," I said as I got up to walk away. One table down and three to the right, at the southwest corner of the cafeteria, I saw Frith.
"Frith?" I tried to get Frith's attention, as I moved into the nearby seat.
The black hood came down, and a broader face that wasn't quite Frith's stared back at me. He must have been wearing special contact lenses, because his eyes were all blank, like polished obsidian. Furthermore, the guy's hair was spiked. His head was a porcupine in the rain at midnight. Even his goatee bristled like a miniature of his head. His sideburns were spiked out over his ears in a curiously draconian way. And then for contrast, he smiled at me with pearly white teeth. They were the only thing paler than his skin.
I was gaping. This guy had style, and I was jealous behind my two stray strands of blond.
"Lookin' for Frith? Alas, not here yet, dude," his voice was calm, reassuring and deep. It put my tension at ease.
"Oh," I exclaimed, not sure how I could have been shocked any more than I already had been. "Someone who knows Frith. That's... different."
"Came out o' the same womb at the same time," this guy said casually, "and I don't even - truly know - Frith." Those words were spoken without disdain, just mild amusement. "I know my twin as well as you know the back of a stranger's hand. What I can tell you, though, is that she'll be here at any moment."
I stuck out my hand for a shake, "CJ."
He took my hand, and then pulled me into a half-hug with incredible strength. "Jankin Gryms, but you can call me Jack if you fancy it."
He quickly let go of me, but I had already felt the body of steel he hid beneath that baggy black sweater. That, and the intriguing way he spoke, gave me the urge to befriend him. If things were going to get any worse, I might need a powerful friend at my side. "My friends and I have been hanging out with Frith a bit today. Would you mind joining us as well?"
"What've I got to gain?" he asked with a crooked grin.
I pretended to look thoughtful for a moment, "Are pretty ladies your kind of thing?"
His smile gained symmetry, and his voice remained gentle, "Not if they're only pretty on the outside."
"Good call," I said, and turned my back with the expectation that I had caught the shark in my social net. And as I pulled back my chair, he took the one beside me.
Evelyn looked up with an intriguing look. Then, she nudged Christina.
Christina, however, looked up as if she'd seen a ghost. And that look of horror hung there in silence for a moment, before fading into a very warm smile which I assume his own had elicited.
Evelyn rolled her eye for a moment, and then leaned in closer to me and whispered, "This isn't Frith, is he? Leslie told me enough to know better."
"Frith is my fraternal twin," he said.
I closed my eyes and smiled with open chagrin. "I don't know how I could have possibly mistaken you for Frith."
Christina hysterically laughed at that for a moment. "He's definitely not effeminate in the least bit..."
A chair was pulled out next to Christina, as she nervously ran a hand through her curled dark brown hair.
"We were just talking about you, Frith," I said.
Christina looked beside her in surprise, as Lucas took his usual seat beside her.
Immediately, he blushed as red as his wavy hair, as if he'd done something wrong. Then he looked up at the broad-shouldered guy beside me. His mouth was quick to move, too quick, "Who's this?"
"Straight," I said, locking eyes briefly with Christina.
"Damn, yet another," said Lucas as he took out his lunch. I had no idea who else he was referring to. Then he looked optimistically down at the far end of the table where I was in the corner next to Vidal. "Or is 'Straight' just his name?"
"Eee... w-well, Lucas, we were just gettin' to that part, eh?" said Evelyn with her thick small-town northern Ontario accent.
"Jankin Gryms," he began.
I interjected, "But you can call him Jack if you fancy it."
"Is that some kind of innuendo?" asked Lucas, suspecting that we were toying with him.
"No," both Jack and I said at once.
"Your assumption is correct, CJ, though you neglected the possibility that I might swing as many ways as Frith does."
Evelyn extended her hand palm down, "Name's Evelyn... Evelynn Crandell."
Jack smiled downwardly, eyebrows arched, as he brought his face down to kiss Evelyn's hand chivalrously and without a word.
That was precisely the moment when we all heard someone's foot squeal against the tile floor and then jab into the side of Evelyn's upper calf.
Christina smiled, passed Lucas my love letter, and then extended her hand for Jankin to shake.
He took it delicately in one hand, and turned it to face down. And then he bent down to kiss it.
"Chrisi, short for Christina."
Immediately, Evelyn's camera flashed.
"The pleasure is all..." he paused, "mutual," he finally said after a thoughtful moment of deliberation. Clearly, he was too smooth for clichés, and skirted above them.
"Making friendly with the friendlies, Jankin?" asked Frith, leaning over my shoulder. "Hello, strangers... and CJ and... oh, hello anonymous love letter!"
I drew my hand to my forehead and laughed awkwardly. Then, as Evelyn, Christina and Lucas introduced themselves, I remembered something: "Brent told me to tell you that he says 'hi'."
"Oh, is that so? I wonder why..." Frith said in a whimsical voice, parting the short curtains of black hair so as to see everyone clearly.
"'Cause he wants into your pants," muttered Evelyn, almost inaudibly.
"Is this everyone?" Frith asked, shoving a seat against the table between Jankin and I, thus causing him to shuffle down.
"No," I said, shaking my head. "The others are still in the caf line-up." Bastien. "Juliet and her fries. Edward in toe."
Lucas passed the letter to Jankin, so that it was everybody's business. I was not surprised.
Evelyn handed me the papers of the story Christina and I were writing, and said nothing about them. That was peculiar behaviour, for someone like her who loved to critique everything. "Lucas, have you seen what Bastien's wearing today?"
"Umm... no. Haven't seen Bass all day. Why do you ask?"
She smiled, and nearly rolled her eyes. "Oh... no reason."
Christina was mouthing words at me, and gesturously swinging one hand like a door.
I didn't understand any of it. I just continued to peel my banana part way, as I read, upside down, the words 'Christina Grims' on Evelyn's notebook.
Then, I realized that Frith was watching me with merciless intensity. But I just continued doing what I was doing. Took a bite of banana and chewed, then swallowed. And another. And then another.
By the time I was peeling it down even more, Frith spoke, "There's something very funny about the way you eat a banana, CJ. Heh heh."
"You see, that's precisely the kind of thing someone like you shouldn't say!" I cried out.
"What do you mean, someone like me?"
"Someone who keeps it a complete secret whether they're a guy or a girl!" I exclaimed, wrongfully assuming that she was playing dumb.
Jack began to chuckle incessantly, soft and deep.
Frith tilted their head really far to one side. "I honestly don't know why it matters to someone as open-minded as you seem to be."
"Oh?" I took the bait.
"Well, if I've profiled you accurately, you barely give a damn what a person looks like, so much as you care about your emotional, romantic and intellectual attraction to them. And against instinct, I bet you don't care if any children you raise are biologically your own. Therefore, why do you care if Crystal, or me, or the author of that love letter is male or female?"
It seemed as if all the other conversations at the table had come to a halt, and all eyes were on us.
"Not that my observation," Frith added, "was necessarily meant as sexual innuendo. Because if it were, that would suggest that I am male."
"These are the moments I like best," said Evelyn, "when this table manages to be more entertaining than my yaoi mangas."
I glared at Evelyn. "I am so glad that you weren't at the party."
"What, did Kieth hit on you?"
"He sure did," said Christina.
"Yeah," I said in annoyance. "Greg too. I'm almost tempted to cut my hair. Oh, and Jason."
"Hey," said Christina, "you led Kieth on."
"You misread me, my dear."
"Who's Jason?" Lucas asked.
"Errr... the twink who lives across the hall from Crystal's. Tried to seduce me, and in doing so made the mistake of admitting that, as I suspected, he had done so successfully to Greg. Or so he claims. That's still up in the air, but for good measure I kneed him in the groin."
"CJ..." said Evelyn.
"Was he hot?" Lucas butted in.
"I don't know," I said. "I guess he was, by your criteria. Obnoxiously effeminate, though. But I advise you to stay away from that cuckolding scumbag."
"Well, sounds like he's into the kind of relationship I'm not after," Lucas put in defensively. "The kind without innocence, romance or... abstinence."
"It's nice to know that relationships orchestrated by men can be that way," I told him.
Lucas rolled his eyes, "Maybe it's the reason I'm not in any relationship."
Evelyn coughed.
"Keepin' that insight to yourself, Evelyn?" Jack asked, making his very subtle English accent recognizable for the first time. That explained the interesting difference in Frith's voice as well... at least, partially.
"Have patience," said Christina, before spooning another mouthful of pasta and tomato soup into her mouth.
"If Jason lives across the hall from Crystal, is he roommates with Bass's older brother? Do you think kicking Jason in the nuts might have... precipitated today's circumstances?"
"I have no idea," and I'd rather not think about it. "Let's ask Bass when he gets here."
Just then, Jankin shed his hoody, which zippered down at the front. All he wore underneath was a tight, sleeveless, black shirt. Not a second later, he was the focal point of everyone.
"Vanity, thy name is brother;" Frith said in an overly pretentious and critical tone, as the first of Jack's muscles flexed. I could tell it was an ironic reference to the line in Hamlet, 'Frailty, thy name is woman;'
"Chauvinism, thy name is Hamlet;" I said.
Frith laughed, a beautiful and androgynous laugh somewhere between a chuckle and a giggle. That kept my thoughts from straying towards Ophelia... and thus to Crystal by extension.

Aberavon 13 Cardiff 41
Bonus points for tries may be a farce and even an incitement to dishonesty but they are keeping the Welsh season alive to its long-drawn-out end. A full house of five points - two for yesterday's win and three for seven tries - took Cardiff into third place behind Neath and Pontypridd.
Though the defending champions are still seven points behind the leaders they have two games in hand, leaving their fortunes essentially in their own hands. Nowadays in Wales simple victory is simply not enough nor, as Aberavon would attest, is simple defeat. A third try here would have given them one precious point.
The Wizards, as they are sometimes known, have conjured few enough, eight to be precise, and they are last in the First Division. If we are to believe one entirely mischievous suggestion, when they play the penultimately placed Abertillery on 20 April there would be every incentive to allow each other to score seven tries in the first half and then battle for the win in the second.
It is less far-fetched than it seems but anyway it is quite complicated enough trying to work out the computations at the top without worrying about the bottom as well. This will run and run; rearranged fixtures will bring Pontypridd up against both Cardiff and Neath in the first half of May.
Eventually Cardiff won easily enough but, in praise of Aberavon, they have obtained bonus points from far inferior performances this season and Cardiff made such heavy weather - in heavy weather - of achieving superiority that by half-time Jonathan Humphreys was their only try-scorer.
In the second half Aberavon managed tries by Phil Wintle and Richard Diplock, but by this time the game was beyond them. Steve Ford went on to score three for Cardiff, the third his 19th in the league and therefore only one short of the season's record jointly held by Ieuan Evans and Wayne Proctor. Yesterday's others came from Andrew Booth, Owain Williams and Adrian Davies, the latter no longer even pretending he is not about to sign for Richmond.
Ford is only 12 away from the Cardiff record of 185 held by Bleddyn Williams - though the significance of rugby history is being eroded by professionalism and the importance of league rugby. Cardiff revealed their priority by starting with only two of those who faced the Barbarians on Saturday - formerly the prestige fixture of their season.

|Estadia Mínima
|7 noites
Lugar de Tad é propriedade de uma família e operado duplex localizado em Key
Colony Beach. Capt Tad opera sua
próprio negócio charter e todo o prazer ajudar com o conhecimento local do nosso
área. Nós oferecemos uma grande walkin
freezer e máquina de gelo para sua conveniência. Tempo gasto em Key Colony
é tempo que você não vai esquecer tão cedo.
Dê-nos uma tentativa você não vai se decepcionar.
This House was Excellent - Had everything needed - Perfect Dock for the Boat...
Cat. Tad Had Ice for Sale at the Dock to make it easier for All your Fishing and Keeping Your Beer Cold...
Plenty of space for Both Cars, Trucks and Boat Trailer...
Nice Clean Area and the Access to the Beach, Pool ans Spa was excellent as Well as Good Food and place to have a few Drinks right on the beach...
Defenitly a place to come and relax - Fish and enjoy the best the Florida Keys has to offer...
So don't wait and book your vacation with Cat. Tad you will not regred your time Here and you will remember your vacation Here for Ever...
Come and stay wil confidence that you will expend the best time of your life Here at the Keys...
5 Start across the board on everything offer and more...
On July 2nd, 2011 we arrived in Key Colony Beach after we trailered the flattest flats boat ever and put in at the local boat ramp,we were provided with impeccable directions on how to get to the dock at there home.We were greeted by Tad and Susan followed by Tater and BJ(cutest dogs I have ever seen)and Starboard and Port(best birds EVER!). The accomodations are perfect for someone who wants to feel like they never left home, they have all the neccesities in the condo and if it isnt there be assured they will allow you to borrow it. They have a outside area that has a grill for your use and multiple chairs to lounge in. As for the dock yes there is a small ladder which at low tide you may have to step down two rungs to get in or out of your boat,but we loaded and unloaded and used it multipe times a day with no problem at all. After the last review we were a bit nervous to use the dock but were surprised as the ease of use. You are minutes from the ocean,bay side and 2 marinas which supply bait, which is a definite plus for any fisherman. Tad and Susan are amazing, they live there so you see them on a regular basis they were like our parents away from home (our ages ranged from 26-30)always asking how our trips went and willing to help us find the best locations for what we were looking for. We are hoping to return in September to do some lobstering with Tad, if we dont make it down we will most definetely be booking this place next year. Hands down one of the best places we have stayed in the Keys!
If you plan to keep your boat in the canal behind the duplex where you will be staying then you will be VERY disappointed. Everyone else has a wooden dock that is needed because the water level is so far down the sea wall. There is no wooden dock for your use, you and your family will have to climb up/and down an 8 foot ladder to reach your boat (sharp barnacles are growing at the end of the ladder) making it impossible to load and unload the boat. This is an accident waiting to happen and to top it off, the fish cleaning table is right over your boat space (need I say more?). You will have to keep your boat on the trailer and trailer it each time to plan to put you boat in/out of the water. You are not getting what you are paying for at this property.

While I agree, IMHO, that the PMC shouldn't have anyone on it who just tries to tell other people what to do, limiting it to just committers is overkill. Committers are known for their technical contributions, and the PMC needs to leverage non-technical skills as well. I'd hate to see the new PMC be less effective than it could be because the newly-elected team prioritized the "dry" administrative work down the queue.

I don't think we should restrict the list to only committers. However I feel strongly that the PMC members should be people who commit to the code base on a daily bases, and who truly understand the issues and are invested by virtue of hard work. That's why I like the Apache & Open Source communities... for the most part there are no managers who only do management (not that there's anything wrong with this). And commit statis is one signal that the people are putting more into xml.apache.org than bright ideas. Therefore, I personally will only vote for committers, with the possible exception of Dirk as chair by virtue of his board representation, because of his history with the PMC, and because to me he is a known quantity who is not too heavy handed. Again, people should vote for whoever they feel will be best at the job... I just happen to feel that commit status is one of the criteria for this. -scott --------------------------------------------------------------------- In case of troubles, e-mail: email@example.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Does anyone have a recommendation for a light, freestanding one person tent? Thanks, Jim fowler (Seattle).Jan 31, 2013 at 10:07 pm #1949550
To add to my inquiry, I was looking at the big Agnes fly creek ul1. Thanks, Jim fowler.Jan 31, 2013 at 10:16 pm #1949558

@b-g-2-2Locale: Silicon Valley
The Fly Creek UL1 is OK, but it sure is not roomy in any dimension. I bought one when I thought that I needed a tent at around 2 pounds for a specific trip. Then I discovered that I needed to be at around 1 pound or less.

If a tent that needs 6 stakes to stand up more or less correctly can be called "free standing" then most tents are freestanding.Feb 1, 2013 at 2:39 am #1949587

A bearpawwd lair requires 6 stakes and requires only one center pole.Feb 1, 2013 at 6:03 am #1949610
The one advantage that freestanding tents have over non-freestanding tents is that it entertains other hikers when the tent blows away like a kite because someone thought that freestanding really meant freestanding:-)
I have seen many tents do this. One time a whole group of tents ended up in the river with sleeping bags and gear inside.
There are many disadvantages to freestanding tents that I think make them a poor choice for me.
Some disadvantages are weight, inflexibility and restriction in the kind of location you can pitch them.Feb 1, 2013 at 6:31 am #1949620

@aroth87Locale: Missouri Ozarks
Around here we've got some nice gravel bars along the creeks. They make great campsites, except when you're trying to use a non-freestanding shelter. As the name implies, the ground is just loose gravel so stakes don't hold very well. Same goes for the glades we have on the hills. A lot of times it can be very difficult to plant a stake. That breeze that would blow a freestanding tent away will just as easily knock over a tarp in that case :D In those places I have to use a copious amount of logs/rocks on top of the stakes to keep my tarp set up. If anything I think a freestanding tent is less restrictive when it comes to where you can set it up, at least where I hike.
AdamFeb 1, 2013 at 6:40 am #1949622
Stakes are obviously not the only choice when anchoring a shelter.
I have camped on solid rock, loose gravel, sand, … and never had a situation where I couldn't/didn't anchor my shelter.Feb 1, 2013 at 12:40 pm #1949716
I think that you missed the intended meaning of my post.
Regardless of how you define a tent design, if it takes six stakes to set a tent up , it takes SIX STAKES to set that tent up…
In fact some of those "freestanding" take 10 or more to work correctly whilst there are "non -freestandindg" tents that are wind worthy with 3 or 4.
Anyway , here is a video clip I shot the other day about setting up a "non freestanding" tent on a rock slab :
And just to make it even clearer…
here is the Fly Creek 1 , note 10 stakes in use :
Feb 1, 2013 at 12:55 pm #1949723
Some great examples in that video.
I have diagrams that I give people as examples, but your video covers lots of good options and is easier to understand.
Now I can just send people a link to your video when the subject comes up:-)Feb 1, 2013 at 2:52 pm #1949768

You may have looked at these already, but if not, perhaps you'd be interested in:
Terra Nova
(can be found at various online retailers and used/ebay if you're not in the UK.)
I've never used these brands personally, but sounds like a lot of people like their Tarptent Moment (which has both a freestanding option, and a non-freestanding option if you want to go lighter later) or their Tarptent Rainbow (freestanding with trekking poles or optional poles). The Scarp can also be freestanding but a bit heavier.Feb 1, 2013 at 9:28 pm #1949903
Sam FarringtonBPL Member
@scfhomeLocale: Chocorua NH, USA
As R. Reagan said, "There you go again."
Freestanding means self-supporting, with the possible exception of pullouts for vestibule(s). In other words, if you pull out the stakes, the tent doesn't fall over or partially collapse on the occupant. In more other words, freestanding tents need stakes to be anchored, but are self-supporting. Non-freestanding tents need stakes not just for anchoring; but also for support. So the distinction is between anchoring and supporting.
Someone, think it was Roger C but he doesn't recall, also said that freestanding means that the tent takes on its full pitched shape without the benefit of stakes. I wouldn't go that far, because a lot of weight can be saved by tying out a vestibule, as opposed to using more poles to support it. Even if you carry only one trekking pole, you can also use it with a stake to support a vestibule and save weight.
FS tents have a real advantage in the Eastern USA in many areas where tent platforms are mandatory, and may or may not have a ring or other fixture on the side to attach a line or pull-out that would otherwise go to a stake. I can't even imagine pitching Z-pack's tent on a platform with it's many supporting stakes, but am sure it can be done, with enough exasperation. Bring yo-ah hammuh 'n nails! I can deal with finding rock solid connections for stakes, branches, rocks or what have you for two, or in high winds maybe even four pull-outs or guy-lines, but that's ENOUGH! I want some protection over me from a frame engineered for strength with poles, especially now that we have the much lighter carbon poles.
Your suggestion that tents supported by many stakes are freestanding is a bit coy. Freestanding tents have some definite advantages – Get over it!Feb 1, 2013 at 10:15 pm #1949907
"Your suggestion that tents supported by many stakes are freestanding is a bit coy"
I never suggested that, maybe you need to sharpen your comprehension skills .
What I stated is that IF a tent that needs 6 stakes to stand up can be called freestanding, then all tents that can stand with 6 stakes or less are freestanding.
But in case you again miss it , what I am suggesting is that neither of the above are freestanding.
Lets have a look at how for example ,MSR sees this.
Hubba :Our lightest and best-selling freestanding solo tent… looks like this :
Nook :The Nook™ tent offers a unique experience – plenty of livable room in….
Any mention of "freestanding? Yes :Freestanding Setup: Add a trekking pole to make the Nook™ tent fully freestanding.
(in other words it isn't without the extra pole…)
now compare those to the BA FlyCreek UL1 :
no matter how you twist it , just like the Nook the FlyCreek UL 1 does not stand up holding the shape without stakes…
My point, for the OP, NOT YOU…, is that if he is happy enough using 6-12 stakes than there are a lot of other options….
BTW, again I need to edit to add photos.Feb 1, 2013 at 11:18 pm #1949925

I must have gotten a defective one, because mine stands up with proper shape when it is sitting in the middle of my carpeted living room with no stakes in sight.

Post a photo of that tent with the fly on without stakes in use.
Just to save you some time, it will look like this:

Hi Franco
Useful video, but you missed one of our favorites which often use in the Blue Mts with our tunnel tents.
We find a long straight stick – branch more likely, and tie the two corners from one end of the tent to it at the right spacing. Say 2 m long. Then we pile lots (and lots) of rocks along the branch. This way we can use lots more rocks than is possible if the corners are tied straight to a rock.
Another option we have is to use some 'family camping' tent pegs I was sent from South Australia. They are rods of (roughly) 8 mm high tensile steel, they can be hammered straight through concrete and asphalt. OK, large steel sledge hammer required. I wonder what the owner of the asphalt surface would say?

As Roger suggests, I find the stick and rock combination better than rocks alone. Rocks are often abrasive and can shred the line in a stong wind from the constant rubbing.
A lot of different sized rocks can be layed along the length of the stick.
There is a point when most of us realize that we don't have to rely on the stakes that we carry and can get by with lighter stakes.
I remember when I carried snow stakes and/or long wide stakes so I would be able to attach my shelter in every situation.
It wasn't long before I realized that even a good assortment of heavy stakes won't work in some scenarios and found objetcs can work much better.
I now carry light stakes and happily supliment with found objects when they don't work well.
One of the many things we learn form experience:-)

On Saturday, legendary musician Elton John announced that he is boycotting Dolce & Gabbana after the company's two founding designers publicly expressed negative views on gay parenting, saying, in part, "You are born to a mother and a father."
Now, several big-name stars are coming forward to throw their support behind John's boycott.
Ryan Murphy, creator of Glee and American Horror Story, took to Twitter on Sunday to blast the fashion designers, calling their views, "Horrifying."
When Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana spoke with Panorama magazine, Dolce said, "I call children of chemistry, synthetic children. Rented wombs, semen chosen from a catalog."
"Livin' La Vida Loca" singer Ricky Martin, who has two children born from a surrogate mother, took umbrage with those sentiments, tweeting, "Ur voices R 2powerfull 2B spreading so much h8."
