Ethics of Trauma Treatment
Presented by Christine A. Courtois, PhD, ABPP on 06-05-2015 at 9 a.m. Pacific to 11 a.m. Pacific (2 p.m. Eastern)
Therapists often encounter numerous complex ethical issues when treating traumatized individuals. It is essential for therapists to develop strong personal and professional ethics to complement professional standards, relevant laws, and formal codes of ethics. These ethics need to be clear yet flexible to effectively manage the challenges associated with these treatments and address the needs of both client and therapist.
This presentation will review issues regarding mindful application of ethics, which could be further described as the therapist's self-reflection on his or her ability to treat traumatized individuals while maintaining awareness of the challenges and risks involved. This ongoing self-reflection evaluates the therapist's empathy toward and recognition of client needs and personal needs, anticipation of common pitfalls, and willingness to learn from mistakes and seek consultation as necessary. We will address issues associated with the treatment frame, the most common ethical dilemmas in trauma treatment, and the importance of maintaining professional boundaries, particularly during crises resulting from attachment and trauma-based relational challenges.
This intermediate, instructional level web conference is designed to help clinicians:
- List at least five risks associated with trauma treatment;
- Describe several common ethical challenges of treating traumatized individuals;
- Utilize several strategies for self-reflection and self-care in the event that ethical dilemmas arise;
- Identify several treatment frame issues that should be in place for the treatment of traumatized people.

Will new age discrimination laws mean cheaper travel insurance for older holidaymakers? Equality minister Harriet Harman wants financial services companies to remove unjustified restrictions - but the insurance industry is warning the move could backfire.
More than one-third of travel insurers refuse cover to the over-65s, and 70% will not provide quotes to the over 75s. Those that do frequently charge sky-high prices. According to a survey by Karma Insurance - an online firm that promises to provide cover for senior citizens up to any age - a couple aged 65 and 66 taking a two-week holiday in Spain this summer can be charged as much as £209. A couple in their 50s can find policies for as little as £20. Over 75s also pay more in car insurance premiums.
The Equality Bill will not be published until later this year, but it is understood insurers will no longer be allowed to make it difficult for older people to take out health, travel and motor insurance. So companies that impose blanket restrictions for those above 65 or 75 may find themselves in breach of the law.
But insurers must be allowed to charge more on certain policies for consumers over a certain age, the Association of British Insurers (ABI) says. "A person over 65 is eight times more likely to claim on their travel policy than a person under 50 and the claim will be three and a half times more expensive," says the ABI.
Harriet Harman believes "there is a significant amount of evidence that older people are being treated in a discriminatory way by those providing goods and services ... there are also concerns about restricted access to some financial services, such as insurance".
But the bill will not affect "actuarially justifiable age-based treatment in areas such as financial services".
So while price differentials will remain, insurers will have to do more to justify the level of increase, and drop blanket restrictions.
How over-65s can find cheap cover
It may be years before age discrimination legislation comes into force. So what can you do before then?
One tip: don't assume that the businesses or charities which specialise in the over-50s market are always the cheapest. They rarely are. Prices for insurance start to rise once you hit 65, and become alarmingly expensive past 75, even if you are fit and healthy. Travellers making several trips a year should aim for an annual policy - but the savings over several single-trip policies are marginal, particularly if you visit America.
A Which? survey found the best buy for the over-75s was from Intune (intunegroup.co.uk), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the charity Help The Aged, and any profits go to support charitable activities.
The Intune policy has no upper age limit, and will cover many pre-existing medical conditions. Companies recommended by Which? for single-trip insurance include Columbus Direct and Golfguard.
It's crucial that travellers declare any information, such as a pre-existing illness, that an insurer might use to calculate your premium. If you do have an existing medical condition, it's worth trying covermytravels.co.uk (0800 917 7829); 24drtravel.com (01825 712945); freedominsure.co.uk (01223 454290) and medicitravel.com (0845 8800168).

I love my Las Vegas wine marker poker chips! They will be perfect for my Las Vegas wedding as a gift for my guests. Seller was great to work with and items came quickly!
agraeter on Nov 1, 2016
great quality worth the price, they were a nice touch for the party
Unique and one of a kind
My drive to be creative stemmed from trying to think of something unique and creative that could be affordable and could be used for multiple events. In 2011, I became an Etsy seller and have since then sold my products to be used for events, fundraisers and weddings world wide. In 2014 I added custom refinished furniture to the shop.
I hand make the Poker Chip Wine Charms myself, in my garage at home. While you may think making these is easy, there are a few tricks to them.
Refinished furniture was added to the shop in 2014. Again my garage is my workspace as I take pieces that need work and turn them into something fabulous again!
Around the web

Little about me, I'm originally from Western Kentucky and still call it home, but Indiana has come to me as a second home as well. I've always been a creative person and have been crafting and creating things since I was little.
Shop policies

All furniture items are hand painted and hand finished. They are all used pieces of furniture that need a cosmetic face lift. Once transformed they return back beautiful and cherished again!
We do ship furniture in the USA only. Please view the Policy on shipping or send a message and I will be happy to answer any questions. Local pick up for furniture is always free. Delivery can be arrange for a fee.
Shipping policy
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy what you find!
Accepted payment methods
- Accepts Etsy gift cards
- Other Method
You do not need a PayPal account to make a purchase. PayPal will take any major credit card.
Your item will be shipped once payment is cleared.
If you live locally in Fort Wayne, IN, cash may be excepted for furniture pieces, or square reader for smart phones.
Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
Only Poker chip wine charms qualify to be shipped internationally from this shop
Poker chip wine charms:
Once payment is cleared your item will be shipped. This is usually next day shipping . Wine charms are shipped via USPS First Class Mail and flat rate priority mail for small packages. If everything goes correctly your item should arrive quickly within the USA. If you order internationally USPS Flat Rate boxes are only used so you get your item/s in a timely fashion and in once piece.
If you purchase 6 or more sets of poker chip wine charms, please contact us for a shipping total or you will pay more in shipping fees up front. Depending on your order quantity, it is cheaper to ship via a flat rate box to reduce shipping costs.
Please keep in mind, that poker chips make the charms weigh more compared to other charms, so shipping is higher. All items either shipped in a padded envelope or newspaper for padding is used in boxes.
Things can happen during shipment that are out of my control. If something does happen to your item either it be broken, damaged, or misplaced, please contact me before leaving negative feedback, this issue most likely can be resolved.
Shipping and Delivery Policy
Once payment is cleared your item will be prepared to be shipped.
Your item will be packaged accordingly to the shipping arrangement. There are several services which some provide packing and other will not. Depending upon the agreed shipping arrangement, details of the shipment will be provided to the customer.
All pieces of furniture are wrapped in an extensive amount of bubble wrap. Extra bubble wrap is wrapped around corners and feet. Pieces are then shrink wrapped, then completely taped with clear shipping tape, and sometimes duct tape is used to reinforce corners and other areas around the piece.
It is the buyers responsibility to arrange shipping if it is not via FedEx or Greyhound bus lines. Please view policy on shipping.
Things can happen during shipment that are out of our control. If something does happen to your item either it be broken, damaged, misplaced, or stolen, please contact us before leaving negative feedback, this issue most likely can be resolved.
We will do our best to work with Greyhound and FedEx if an issue does arise. NOTE The Eclectic Moon and the buyer must follow these businesses policies and comply with them in the event there is an issue to resolve the matter.
If the client books the shipment, The Eclectic Moon will not be held responsible for any liabilities or products that have been broken, damaged, misplaced, or stolen by the carrier chosen by the client. Since we didn't arrange the shipment, we are not authorized to intervene.
Note shipping is not cheap when it comes to furniture. Expect to at least pay $100 to a few hundred (depending on size). We will only arrange shipping arrangements through FedEx or greyhound bus lines. Any other carrier you will be responsible for arranging shipping.
Shipping quotes also include materials for used for shipping. The amount you are quoted is the amount of materials and quote given by the carrier.
>> Greyhound bus lines
It is by far the cheapest way to ship. However, the downfall is you must go to the greyhound station and pick the item up once it arrives. They will call you when it arrives and they will tell you how many days you have to pick your item up before they start charging you a stocking fee.
There must be a greyhound station near you, or you must be willing to drive to the nearest location. There are average 100lb weight limits and length limits. Not all pieces qualify for greyhound. I will ship them if possible via greyhound and as long as you are willing to go and pick up the item/s.
Greyhound quotes include shipping insurance. They automatically provide up to $1000 in insurance.
>> LTL freight carriers
You are responsible for setting up and making these arrangements. These are carriers who are looking to pick up extra loads to fill their current load.
The benefit is, it usually costs hundreds less to ship. The downfall, you won't get your item in a week. You may get it in 2-4 weeks. As long as you can hold out on the time frame, you will save yourself several hundred dollars.
Only service providers with known positive feedback and good reviews should be used. Also view cancellations on a shipper. If there are many cancellations, you may want to choose a different shipper as this can possibly indicate they are unreliable.
Make sure you purchase insurance. It usually is not included in the price. There is a deductible so make sure you purchase more than your deductible.
>> Local Delivery
If you choose to have a piece of furniture delivered, it is the clients responsibility to review the piece upon arrival and before the owner departs. If any damage occurs during delivery and is noticed, by the client, the client is to notify the shop owner before they leave. The shop owner will decide on the correct step of action. Once a piece has been delivered and accepted by the buyer, it is no longer property of The Eclectic Moon. The Eclectic Moon assumes no responsibilities for any damage to the piece after delivered or picked up by the client.
>> Local Pickup is always FREE
Additional Notes
Note all sales are final on furniture. All furniture is used and will show imperfections in the pieces usually. Paint and finish is applied over surfaces of the furniture so imperfections may still be visible. If something happens during shipment to the piece, it it out of our control. They will be wrapped with padding for shipment as noted above. Insurance should be purchased for items so that if something were to happen it will be covered.
Refunds and Exchanges
If for any reason you are not satisfied with poker chip wine charms, returns will accepted (excluding furniture; all sales final on furniture). You must contact me first before returning the item.
Wine charms are not normally damaged easily unless there has been tampering of the charms or during the drilling process. They are securely fastened together and if they come apart its most likely from physical force. The buyer is the only other point of contact once the package is opened.
If an item is damaged, pictures of the damaged product must be taken and will be reviewed at the discretion of the shop owner. If there is any tampering a refund will not be issued. The connecting piece on the wine charm ring is not soft, but is necessary to close the loop.
For poker chip wine charms, custom sets are non-refundable and non-returnable. All sales are final for custom sets.
Qualifying items must me sent back within 7 days of marked shipped date on ETSY (furniture sales are final and do not qualify), in an unused, original, and resalable condition. Once item is received back to me, a refund will be issued less shipping charges. It is the buyers responsibility to pay any additional return shipping charges.
Shipping charges will vary. If you do not contact me first before purchasing, you most likely will pay more for shipping. When purchasing wine charms, if you are purchasing more than 6 sets (50 charms) you will pay more for shipping if you do not contact me first. Shipping can be calculated exactly and a custom order can be created for you. I am fair and will refund shipping overages in excess of $2 of the paid shipping amount. So if it cost $6 to ship and you paid $10, you will get $2 back. ** Excludes furniture**
Same shipping overage rule applies to PayPal adding in the pay pal fee that PayPal charges the seller based upon the total purchase and shipping. If shipping is again in excess of what it costs to ship, you will receive a refund for shipping overages in excess of $2 of the paid shipping amount, less the pay pal fee. So if it cost $6 to ship and you paid $10, and PayPal charges me $1.00 in fees, you will get $1 back. ** Excludes furniture**
If there is a problem please contact me before leaving negative feedback. A solution can always be found.
Additional policies and FAQs
All sales are final with furniture purchases. No returns or refunds will be allowed for furniture sold by The Eclectic Moon.
It is understood by all parties that all the furniture sold is second hand / used furniture / and previously owned. Most if not all pieces will show imperfections. Some are cosmetically fixed as much as possible but still may not be perfect and will still show imperfections. These imperfections will show through paint and finish. Minor repairs may be made to a piece, but no major structural repairs will be performed. One example of a minor repair: A screw is used to hold a drawer glide in place. All questions not answered by the description of a piece must be asked before the sale is complete to ensure the piece is what you are looking for.
It is recommended and encouraged that you see the piece of furniture in person before purchasing to make sure it is what you are looking for. Please keep in mind that there may be color and image differences due to how your monitor displays an item. All sales are final for furniture pieces so please review the piece.
Several angles are taken of a piece and always one straight front head on view of the piece. It is the clients responsibility to review the description and photos provided. Additional photos may be requested by any interested party and will be provided based upon the request. Any additional questions that were not answered in the description of a piece are always welcome and will be answered by the shop owner.
>> Wine Charms
If you would like additional sets or custom chip sets, they are available for only the adds that have the custom option.
EX: if you would like all 10 charms to be of one denomination or only certain denominations in chips, or even only certain bead colors. Just let me know and I can create them for you!
Custom chip combinations are for the chips listed in the add for sale. Please let me know before you purchase if you would like additional sets or a custom set. I ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPING!
Please keep in mind that there may be color differences due to how your monitor displays an item.
Also, for the items that are handmade, you may notice slight differences in the items photographed in the shop. If you make multiple purchases, you will see that they are vary slightly from one another as well. I can not control this as the materials used are ordered.

A group of otters received a welcome hamper from their keepers after moving into their new home at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.
Zookeepers prepared a hamper full of fishy treats to celebrate the arrival of three female Asian small-clawed otters, called Blaze, Noodle and Drumstick.
They join two male otters, Fattie and Chopstick – who have lived at Whipsnade Zoo since 2005, to form a new social group.
House-warming hamper
Senior keeper Alex Pinnell said: "Blaze, Noodle and Drumstick are a very excitable trio, and they're already keeping the male otters on their toes.
"All five have settled well into the new social group, so we thought we'd help them celebrate with a house-warming hamper.
"We feed the otters a huge range of different freshwater and saltwater fish, as well as prawns, mussels, mice and broccoli. We've put all their favourite snacks in and the hamper will be something totally new for them to explore and enjoy. They're an inquisitive bunch, I'm sure they'll be delighted by their treat."
Asian small-clawed otters are classified as vulnerable by the IUCN Red List; due to habitat destruction, water pollution and hunting.
Visitors can see the new arrivals and take part in Monster Myth-busting activities during half-term at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.

Cara: The Arts EveningMature
"I told her." I said, finding Ali and Liam still in the living room. Jak and Callum were there too. They'd obviously been told what was going on.
"Hey Cara, don't worry about it." Jak said.
"Cheers Jak." Ali muttered.
"Look, it's not her fault Ali. Just because Anna has a thing for her... Cara loves Sam, I'm pretty sure that's obvious."
Ali crossed her arms and frowned, but I could see it'd made sense to her. I gave Jak a small thankful smile. We fell in to silence, and then I heard Anna's door open and her footsteps down the stairs.
"Oh. Hey. Are you guys here to get ready for the arts thing?" I didn't even dare look at her but I knew she was putting on a brave face.
"Um, yeah. Liam's not letting me get ready on my own. Reckons I'll screw things up don't you Liam?" Jak joked. "What he doesn't realise is suits really get the ladies, so I'll be so smart James Bond will look like a hobo."
I momentarily forgot the awkwardness of the situation to stare at Jak.
"Did you actually just say that?" Ali said, obviously dumbfounded.
"Yes. Yes I did." We stared at him. "What?"
"Nothing, nothing." Liam said, shaking his head. "So hadn't we better get ready? Sam said the van will be coming to grab the instruments at half five so we have time to set up and do a sound test. Callum you're going in the van and me, Jak, Ali and Anna are going in a taxi right?" There were murmurs in agreement. "So you girls realise you've only got an hour before pick up right?"
"Shit." I muttered and jumped up, running to my room. I heard running feet behind me, meaning Ali and Anna were both doing the same.
I couldn't stand the silence, so I went in to my room and put my music on full blast. As I danced around, trying to get all my anxieties out, I decided to take a shower. That would calm my nerves.
I slipped under the warm jets and let the heat wash away my troubles. I shaved, then stepped out and cleaned my teeth. I took my new black lace panties and black lace bra out of the bag and slipped them on. Then I carefully pulled up my skin coloured tights and brought the dress out from the wardrobe and hung it up on the door. Makeup and hair next.
I wanted to look perfect for Sam tonight. She'd been under a lot of stress, and despite my tearful visit to Pieces this afternoon, I'd hardly seen her. It wasn't like were growing apart, but the lack of time we'd spent together had taken a bit of a toll. I missed her, and she was so exhausted when I saw her that we never really did anything. To be honest I was a little bit, frustrated. Selfish I know, but I missed sex. God, I was turning in to Jak. I applied my foundation and powder and sighed. Maybe it was this whole Anna thing, but I just really needed something to take my mind off everything.
I lined my eyes with black, making them look huge. A bit of eyeshadow, a dash of lip gloss and I was done. I grabbed my hair mousse and hairspray, and gave my hair a sexy messed up look. Then I washed my hands and let the black dress slip over my head. I grabbed my heels- not insanely high ones because I remembered Sam wanting to dance with me- and hurried out and back in to the living room. Liam, Jak and Callum were all sat there in suits. Tuxedo rentals to be exact. Although Jak's was actually his own- rich parents again.
"Woah. Cara- why the hell are you a lesbian?" Jak complained. Then he chuckled. "No, joking aside, you look amazing."
"You do Cara. Really hot." Callum agreed.
"Sam's a lucky girl." Liam said. I felt my cheeks flame brighter at each compliment.
"Thanks guys. I'm so nervous."
"Don't be. We're going to kill this."
"I hope so."
Ali appeared then, in the pink dress she'd let me borrow for my date with Sam.
"Wow Ali, you look... amazing." Jak said, standing up.
"Thank you Jak." She smiled. He moved over so she could sit down. I noticed him looking at her with a little touch of awe on his face as she looked over at Liam and Callum to say how nice they looked. Strange, is that Jak's infatuated face...? Anna's arrival drew me from my thoughts as I turned round, fully intent on being normal with her. She wore a tight blue dress that gave her even more figure. She looked good.
"Hey Anna, you look great." I smiled.
"Thanks, you too!" She grinned.
So this is what it's going to be like. We're all going to pretend like nothing happened. Ok then. Liam's phone rang and he announced the van was outside with their taxi. I followed them to the door, helping to carry some of the instruments.
"See you there." Liam grinned, giving me a hug.
"Yeah, behave till I get there won't you?" I said, pointing at Jak.
"Hey, I always behave." He muttered, casting a glance at Ali. Oh my god he likes her.
"See you there then." I said, and watched them all clamber in the taxi. Then I went inside and turned off my music, packing my essentials in to my bag. There was a knock at the door after ten minutes, and it was Sam, come to pick me up.
She was wearing smart black tailored trousers, a white shirt and a black waistcoat with patterns on the back in purple. Over it she wore her long black coat.
"Hello gorgeous," She muttered, kissing me. I flamed a little and pressed myself against her.
"Mmm," I moaned as we pulled apart, "You look good."
"So do you. That dress..." She tutted, "You look good enough to eat."
"Now?" I asked, running my hands over the lines of her coat.
"Later." She muttered, kissing me. "I don't want to mess up your dress, or your hair. Or your vocal chords for that matter..." She winked and kissed me again.
"Well let's go then." I smiled and stepped out in to the cold, locking the door and slipping the keys in to my bag. I tucked my arm in hers and she led me to the car.

People looking for an 'all-under-one-roof' property proposition can visit the Nottingham Estate Agency (NEA) city centre or Mapperley offices - they may even see a familiar face or two!
Ben and senior valuer and sales negotiator Helena have good experience working for us, having each clocked up over seven years with The Nottingham.
And despite the Nottingham city/Mapperley partnership having only been formed a month or so ago it is already reaping rewards - with sales of properties on our books in Mapperley area up four times the amount sold in the same month (July) last year.
Ben, 29, says: "I'm delighted to now be at the helm of both the city centre and Mapperley offices and to have Helena - and the experience and professionalism that she brings - by my side in doing so. She is a fabulous addition to the team.
"We have really hit the ground running with an energy and positivity and the fact sales are on the rise despite it being a time of year when it can be quiet due to people heading off on holiday - and of course there's the Brexit uncertainty in some people's minds - is a very positive sign."
Helena, 30, adds: "Like Ben and the rest of the team I am very enthusiastic about helping people onto and along the property ladder.
"What's extra special about our offering here is that, as part of The Nottingham, as well as residential sales we are able to offer other products and services in areas such as lettings and savings, as well as advice on mortgages, home insurance and financial and estate planning.
"Working across the two branches, as part of such a brilliant team, is an exciting challenge."

The Toronto Maple Leafs scored three goals in the second period on the way to a 4-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers Tuesday night at Rogers Place.
With the loss the Oilers have lost three in a row, after winning three straight and Connor McDavid said the highs and lows are frustrating.
"When we're on those highs we're clicking and pucks find the way into the net, but when we're on these lows it's stupid mistakes that we keep making that are costing us the game. So it's just baring down at all times."
Auston Matthews opened the scoring 5:45 into the game, converting a cross-ice pass from William Nylander.
The Leafs dominated the second period, going up 2-0 on an early goal by James van Riemsdyk after the Oilers got crossed up on their defensive coverage. Andrej Sekera lifted the Oilers to within a goal when his point shot got through Frederik Andersen, but just 1:10 later Nazem Kadri took advantage of a turnover to make it 3-1 Toronto.
The Oilers had a 5-on-3 power play for 1:05 later in the period but couldn't convert. Zach Hyman made it 4-1 shortly after the Leafs killed off the penalties.
Connor McDavid rounded out the scoring in the third, blazing in around the defence and lifting a shot over Andersen's shoulder. McDavid had a goal and an assist to extend his point streak to six games. Milan Lucic had an assist to run his point streak to five games.
Lucic said his team needs to come onto the ice with more intensity.
"Kinda creating that emotion early before the puck drops, and as the season goes on games mean more and more and hopefully we can learn our lesson that we need to bring the right kind of emotion right off the start."
The Oilers were 0/6 on the power play. Cam Talbot was pulled after the second period, allowing four goals on 14 shots. Jonas Gustavsson stopped all seven shots he faced in the third.
Head coach Todd McLellan said the power play wasn't the only reason for the loss, but it was a contributing factor.
"We had nine minutes, couple minutes five on three, we ended up with six shots on goal and we won more face offs than we lost, so we were in their end. To fine, to cute, to slow to shoot, not working real hard to get secondary chances once the shot was blocked, it just wasn't very good."
The Oilers fall to 12-10-2 on the season. They'll visit Winnipeg on Thursday. (jrw)

text: STAR Program® Survivor Education When to Worry About Pain Anytime you have pain it can cause you to worry. When you are dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment, you may feel that it is even harder to determine what is expected pain and discomfort and what is not. Below are some "rules" about when you should worry about pain. Two-Week Rule Your doctor should check any pain that lasts for more than two weeks. Often pain that lasts for two weeks is muscular or skeletal, and not a serious threat to your health. Many doctors use the "two-week rule" because musculoskeletal pain will often resolve within a two-week period. Also, a two-week delay in diagnosis is very unlikely to change someone's prognosis, even if the pain is due to cancer. Though the two-week rule applies to most pain, sometimes you should ignore this rule and seek treatment sooner (see Rules 2, 3 and 4). Acute Trauma Rule A doctor should immediately check all pain associated with acute trauma, such as a car accident or a fall from a ladder. Usually people aren't overly worried about cancer if they have trauma that results in immediate or even slightly delayed pain. However, the pain, treatment and recovery associated with that trauma could affect your cancer prognosis, treatment and time to recovery. Worst Pain of My Life Rule Any severe pain that doesn't allow you to move about normally should be checked sooner rather than later. Often this type of pain is not cancer but may be the result of something serious such as a heart attack, appendicitis or ruptured blood vessel (aneurysm). I Can't Sleep Rule Talk to your doctor about any pain that keeps you awake at night. Sometimes night pain is more serious than pain that occurs during the day with normal activities. However, keep in mind that musculoskeletal pain often bothers people at night. Hip bursitis or shoulder tendinitis often keeps people awake if they lie on the affected side. If you have cancer, don't take any chances-report your symptoms to your doctor. Radiation-Induced Brachial Plexopathy Radiation-Induced Brachial Plexopathy (RIBP) may affect the shoulder, arm and hand. Symptoms can include pain, numbness, tingling and weakness. Sometimes it is associated with lymphedema. RIBP is caused by radiation treatment and often presents years after treatment. Although there is no cure for RIBP, rehabilitation measures can help people to function better by reducing discomfort and disability. Questions to Ask Your Doctor Do I need any further testing? Will cancer rehabilitation help me feel better and/or recover faster? Are there any medications or other treatments that you recommend? How to Protect Your Arm Maintain your upper extremity range of motion as much as possible. RIBP can result in limited motion and even development of contractures in your arm (often referred to as a "frozen shoulder"). When this happens, it becomes more difficult to use your arm for normal activities. Your doctor or physical/occupational therapist can give you specific range of motion (ROM) exercises to help maintain or improve the motion at the joints that have limitations. Avoid activities that increase pain, especially if the pain last more than a few minutes. During your daily activities, you will probably find that some things cause pain more than others. If possible, try and avoid activities that cause pain, particularly if the pain lasts more than a few minutes. This is also true of any exercises that you do. When you stretch, you may feel some uncomfortable pulling or tightness, which is normal. But the discomfort should stop within a few minutes of completing the exercises. If you have an increase in pain that lasts for a long time (more than 20 minutes) after completing your exercises, let your healthcare team know. Sometimes a physical or occupational therapist will recommend using modalities, such as heat (e.g., a "hot pack") and/or cold (e.g., an "ice pack") in conjunction with your ROM exercise program. When used properly, these can help promote stretching, as well as reduce pain and inflammation. Improve your sleep. RIBP may be keeping you awake at night. If so, ask your doctor about the possibility of medications to reduce pain and promote a good night's rest. Sometimes sleeping positions may help. Keeping your shoulder and arm in a good position at night is important to protect your shoulder and to decrease pain. It can also help to reduce swelling. Supporting your arm on pillows is one option. If you sleep on your back, try supporting your arm with a pillow placed across your abdomen. If you sleep on your side, you can "hug" a pillow between your arms. Reduce the stress on your arm at home. There are many ways to make things easier around the house and for leisure activities. Here are some examples: Use tools that are easy to hold. Large, non-slip handles will be easier to use (e.g., large-handled knives; large handled utensils and cooking equipment, etc.) Substitute electric appliances for manual ones whenever possible. For example, an electric rather than manual can opener. Try non-skid liners/mats on counters and tables to steady plates or bowls when cooking or eating. These can also aide you in opening jars. Use voice-activated software for computer use or a one-handed key pad. Explore voice activated "smart phones" for making calls, and using the Internet. Use a hands-free device as well. Avoid holding heavy books and instead try an electronic book reader or use a book stand/holder. Purchase smaller grocery and household items in order to avoid having to use both hands to carry things. Use assistive devices such as zipper pulls, dressing sticks, and button hooks which can make dressing easier. Velcro straps and elastic laces help make putting on and taking shoes off easier. Use of Velcro® Style Button Aids or magnetic buttons can make fastening clothes easier Try a blow dryer stand, so you don't have to hold your blow dryer. What to Do After a New Cancer Diagnosis A cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming news to anyone, but cancer survivors shouldn't feel alone or helpless. Our focus is on patient-centered care which means that we want survivors (our patients) to be partners with us in their care. We want to empower newly diagnosed cancer survivors by encouraging them to become an active participant in their treatment and recovery. Below are some suggestions that may help you or someone you care about do just that. Ten Things You Can Do Right Now Find doctors that you trust and reach out to them and other members of your healthcare team for medical advice. Reach out to friends for emotional support, not medical advice. Ask your healthcare team about cancer rehabilitation so that, as you go through treatment and afterward, you have access to the medical support you need to feel as well as possible. Keep a written log of every phone call and appointment-include the names and contact information of everyone you speak to. Gather your medical information including laboratory, imaging, and biopsy reports. Also get copies of the actual films and pathology slides to bring to your initial appointments with oncologists. Cut back on alcohol. If you can eliminate alcohol, that's best. Exercise. Get a pedometer and try to take at least 10,000 steps each day. Sleep as well as possible. If you can't sleep, talk to your doctor. Read excerpts from What Helped Get Me Through: Cancer Survivors Share Wisdom and Hope(published by the American Cancer Society and available in your hospital's patient resource library, your local community library, bookstores or Amazon.com). Remember that there are more than 13 million cancer survivors in the United States, and the vast majority of them were not diagnosed at the earliest possible stage. There are excellent cancer treatments available and many reasons to maintain hope. Can Cancer Rehabilitation Help Me? Cancer and cancer treatments sometimes cause problems. They can cause you pain, make you feel tired and keep you from doing the things that you need or want to do. Cancer rehabilitation can help. Our goal is to reduce these troubling effects and help you have the best quality of life possible. Below are the answers to some frequently asked questions that will help you learn more about cancer rehabilitation and how it might help you cope with your cancer and/or cancer treatment(s). 1. What is cancer rehabilitation? Cancer rehabilitation is much like other forms of rehabilitation that happen after a serious illness or injury such as a stroke or car accident. Medical services may include appointments with and treatments recommended by medical professionals, including physiatrists (doctors who specialize in rehabilitation medicine); nurses; physical, occupational and/or speech therapists; and mental health professionals. 2. What types of problems can be treated with cancer rehabilitation? Rehabilitation professionals can help you cope with a wide variety of cancer and/or treatment-related conditions and their symptoms. These might include, but are not limited to, pain, weakness, tiredness (fatigue), shoulder problems, balance and walking (gait) problems, memory and concentration issues, swallowing and speech problems, swelling (lymphedema) as well as anxiety and/or depression. 3. How will I know if cancer rehabilitation can help me? If you have any problems that you didn't have before your diagnosis, especially if they interfere with your ability to do the things that you need or want to do, cancer rehabilitation can likely help you. 4. Will my insurance cover cancer rehabilitation? If the cancer rehabilitation care is provided by professionals with healthcare degrees and licenses in rehabilitation medicine then medical insurance should cover some or all of the costs. These covered items usually include appointments with and treatments recommended by physiatrists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and even speech therapists. Other services that your insurance will usually cover, at least in part, include those provided by nurses and mental health professionals. As with all insurance issues, check with your carrier about deductibles, co-pays and limits. 5. What is special about this cancer rehabilitation program? This program is part of the STAR Program network of certified cancer rehabilitation programs. STAR Program Certified is a nationally recognized cancer survivorship accreditation that means that the program is focused on improving the lives of survivors who suffer from the side-effects caused by cancer and its treatments. Certified STAR Programs offer coordinated cancer rehabilitation care that is supported by a team of specially trained medical professionals. As a STAR Program patient, you will receive complete and individualized cancer rehabilitation treatment that has been designed to improve the issues affecting your daily life. 6. How can I receive more information about Kingsbrook Rehabilitation Institute STAR Program? For appointments and/or additional information, call Kingsbrook Rehabilitation Institute at 718-604-5341. A provider referral is usually needed before therapies can begin. Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Patient Information Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a side-effect of some chemotherapy drugs. However, the precise mechanism of injury to the nerves remains unclear. Often, the symptoms of CIPN will improve over time, especially if the chemotherapy was given fairly recently and has now been discontinued. Typical symptoms of CIPN may include pain, numbness, tingling, weakness and/or clumsiness. The symptoms may be present in the feet and/or the hands. When present in both, its presence is often described as a "stocking-glove distribution". A more detailed description of the symptoms of CIPN includes: Discomfort or pain Pins & needles or tingling Sensitivity to light touch or pressure Numbness or decreased sensation Balance problems Weakness in the hands and/or feet Difficulty with fine motor skills (e.g., buttoning a shirt, typing, etc.) Nerve injuries may take up to two years to heal after chemotherapeutic treatment has been discontinued. Even if CIPN symptoms have been present for more than 1-2 years, there are quite a few things that can be done to reduce your discomfort and/or disability. Questions to Ask Your Doctor Do I need any further testing? Are there any medications or treatments that you recommend? Your Feet: Reducing Discomfort and Improving Function The following guidelines may help you reduce the discomfort that you feel in your feet and improve your overall function: To prevent injuries, avoid going barefoot. Try using "rocker-bottom" shoe soles and/or soft shoe inserts (orthotics). These footwear modifications can help reduce pressure on your feet. Most shoes (except high heels and some sandals) can be taken to a shoe repair shop to have rocker bottom soles installed. There are also several commercially available rocker bottom sole shoes. Ask at your local shoe store or search for them online. Be sure to try a gentle rocker slope at first so that the shoes do not pitch you to far forward. Postmastectomy pain syndrome Postmastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS) is chronic pain that occurs following surgery to the breast, such as a lumpectomy, mastectomy, axillary lymph node dissection, breast reconstruction, and/or breast augmentation. There are many causes of PMPS, including phantom breast pain, pain from neuromas, incisional pain, and neuralgia (pain along the course of a nerve). The goal when treating PMPS is to decrease discomfort and disability. Questions to Ask Your Doctor Do I need any further testing? Will cancer rehabilitation help me feel better and/or recover faster? Are there any medications or other treatments that you recommend? Rehabilitation Interventions that May Help Massage Once your incision has healed, gently massage the scar area. You should massage 3-5 times per day. Your doctor or your physical or occupational therapist may recommend a cream to soften the skin and promote healing. The goal is to soften the adhesions that can cause the incision to "stick" to the underlying tissues. These adhesions may cause restrictions and pain with movement. Be careful not to rub too vigorously-you do not want to injure the healing area. Desensitization Lightly rub the areas that are sensitive (this may be at the incision, or other areas in the chest or arm) with a soft fabric or cotton or gentle massager 3 to 5 times per day. Rub for as long as you can tolerate it, with the goal to increase the time you rub by 10-15 seconds each session. Don't be discouraged if you are not always able to increase the time. This is normal. The key is to keep trying and to gently rub several times per day. Range of Motion PMPS can result in limited shoulder motion. When this happens, it becomes more difficult to use your arm for normal activities. Your doctor or physical/occupational therapist can give you specific range of motion (ROM) exercises to help improve movement at the joints that have limitations. It is important that you follow the guidelines for doing these exercises. You do not want to do too little or too much. You may feel some uncomfortable pulling or tightness as you do your exercises, which is normal. But the discomfort should stop within a few minutes of completing the exercises. If you have an increase in pain that lasts for a long time (more than 20 minutes) after completing your exercises, let your doctor or therapist know right away. You may be instructed to use heat and/or cold in conjunction with your ROM exercise program.

Forest 4-1 Blackburn
Nottingham Forest secured an excellent 4-1 victory over Blackburn Rovers at The City Ground this afternoon.
Two Henri Lansbury penalties handed The Reds a comfortable-looking lead before Ben Marshall halved the deficit eight minutes before the break.
But Man of the Match Jamie Paterson and Andy Reid struck after the break to wrap up the victory and further cement Forest's position in the Sky Bet Championship playoff positions.
Billy Davies made four changes to the side which drew at Bolton last weekend. The ever-reliable Jack Hobbs was forced off at The Reebok Stadium with a hamstring injury and the man who replaced him, Danny Collins, was handed a starting berth against Rovers. Jamaal Lascelles was also absent from the squad so Greg Halford was recalled to The Reds' defence after excelling up front in recent matches.
Simon Cox filled the gap left by Halford. He was flanked by Paterson and Jamie Mackie, the latter replacing the bench-bound Djamal Abdoun. Sunderland loanee David Vaughan made his first appearance since sustaining a thigh injury in the Boxing Day win over Queens Park Rangers. That meant Guy Moussi had to settle for a place on the bench, where there was also a space for Ishmael Miller.
Striker Jordan Rhodes was consigned to the sidelines after injury ruled him out of Blackburn's FA Cup trip to Manchester City on Wednesday, but there was no place in the squad for experienced keeper Paul Robinson who was substituted at half-time at The Etihad Stadium.
The visitors claimed the first opportunity of the match on three minutes. Gonzalo Jara dallied near his own corner flag and Rudy Gestede nipped in, taking the ball away from Halford and into Forest's box. The angle was always against the Benin international, who flashed the ball across goal and two yards wide of Karl Darlow's far post.
Forest soon took a firm grip on proceedings however. Vaughan's left-footed 25-yard effort moved wickedly through the air on five minutes. Simon Eastwood was able to set himself before pushing the ball to safety.
A minute later Mackie was bundled over by Tommy Spurr down the right. Reid's inswinging free-kick found Halford stooping among a crowd of bodies. He was unable to direct his header goalwards.
And The Reds went close again three minutes later, Cox shooting wide after Paterson had cut the ball back dangerously from the by-line.
Forest's pressure was relentless and Lansbury was next to have a go. He took the ball beautifully in his stride before unleashing a stinging low drive. Eastwood did brilliantly to dive to his right and turn the ball behind.
The hosts were playing terrific football but a more direct approach proved to be the catalyst for the opening goal.
Lansbury's forward run was met perfectly by Reid's lofted ball over the top. The former Arsenal midfielder was bundled over by Grant Hanley in the area and referee Darren Deadman had no hesitation in pointing to the spot. Lansbury opted for power - and he got just about enough on the ball to squeeze it under Eastwood and hand Forest a deserved lead.
The goalscorer almost doubled the advantage minutes later, looping the ball over the bar from long range.
Blackburn were being run ragged but served up a reminder of their own threat on the half-hour. Tom Cairney tricked his way towards the edge of the Reds area and was bundled over. Dan Harding went into the book and Cairney sent the free-kick a yard over Darlow's bar.
But Forest soon made it two. Paterson latched onto Cox's neat reverse pass before being chopped down by Adam Henley in the area. Mr Deadman pointed to the spot again and Lansbury ensured Eastwood had no chance this time, smashing the ball high, hard and straight down the middle.
The pattern of the game suggested the hosts would run away with it from that point onwards, but Rovers' Marshall had other ideas.
Halford conceded a corner and after Forest failed to clear Cairney slipped it to his right, where former Leicester winger Marshall was waiting to curl the ball precisely to Darlow's left and into the corner of the net.
The Reds will have been frustrated to have allowed their visitors a way back into the match and soon set about restoring their two-goal lead.
A 40th-minute spell of superb passing lead to Mackie firing a vicious left-footed shot towards Eastwood's top corner from the edge of the area. The keeper produced a superb acrobatic save to tip it over.
And Forest claimed the final chance of the half as Paterson twisted and turned in the area, looking for space to shoot. When he eventually pulled the trigger Rovers got a block in to turn the ball behind for a corner.
There were no changes for either side at the break but Rovers soon set about altering the scoreline. Collins was penalised for nudging Gestede in the back and Marshall swung the resultant free-kick towards the back post. Scott Dan headed the ball into the middle and Spurr was able to divert it goalwards. Darlow did well to get across and claw the ball away from the top corner.
The Reds conjured up their first attempt of the half just before the hour as Gonzalo Jara burst onto Reid's half-cleared cross on the edge of the area. The Chile international struck the ball well first time but the ball was always bending away from goal.
A much better chance presented itself minutes later. After Eastwood had palmed away Lansbury's long-range drive Paterson picked the ball up on the left. The winger's dinked cross was perfect for Cox but the Irishman could only nod the ball wide from six yards.
Despite improving since the interval Blackburn were struggling to create clear-cut chances. Josh King, on for Lee Williamson, took the initiative, drawing a strong save from Darlow with a low drive from 20 yards. Cairney flashed over on the follow-up.
And any hope the visitors had of salvaging anything from the match was extinguished on 72 minutes when, after receiving the ball from Reid, Paterson's quick feet opened up the space for him to fire the ball low across Eastwood and into the left-hand corner of the net - the 21 year old's fifth goal in three matches.
The Reds made two changes during the subsequent stoppage. Mackie and Vaughan made way for Matt Derbyshire and Moussi, and shortly afterwards Darius Henderson replaced Cox.
Blackburn had earlier introduced Rhodes and David Dunn for Gestede and Chris Taylor respectively. And Gary Bowyer was made to rue using up all his substitutes when Dann retreated down the tunnel late on, leaving Rovers to play the rest of the match with ten men.
Five minutes of added time were indicated, the first of which saw Paterson shift smartly onto his right foot on the edge of the area before curling the ball into Eastwood's grasp.
But there was nothing the keeper could do in the 95th minute. His defenders backed off Reid on the edge of the area and, just as he did against West Ham a fortnight earlier, the Irishman put the icing on the cake - smashing the ball left-footed into the top corner.

Korg Volca FM Polyphonic Digital FM Synthesizer
The Korg Volca FM is a polyphonic digital synthesizer that completely reproduces a classic FM sound engine.
Main Features
- Volca goes FM!
- 6 operator, 32 algorithm FM synthesis with 3 note polyphony
- 16 step sequencer and arpeggiator
- Synchronise and clone two units
- Loads DX7 SYSEX data
- Onboard chorus effect
The volca series has shed new light on classic technologies by linking classic sound engines such as the groove machines and early samplers of the past with the dance music of today. Now it's time for the series to gain an FM sound engine.
- Read More
The volca fm is a three-voice digital FM synthesizer that completely reproduces the sound engine of a classic FM synthesizer, and provides compatibility with it as well. The unique volca interface makes it easy to manipulate distinctive FM sounds even if you're not familiar with the complexities of FM synthesis. The 16-step sequencer that's one of volca's features provides new functions such as WARP ACTIVE STEP and PATTERN CHAIN that let you make even more powerful rhythm patterns.
The appearance of FM (Frequency Modulation) sound generation was a major turning point in the history of synthesizers. Its metallic and sharp sounds, most notably electric piano and synth bass, have been loved by all music creators since 1980 up to the present time. The volca fm perfectly reproduces the sound engine of the classic digital synthesizer that made the world aware of FM synthesis. Its six operators and 32 algorithms provide complete compatibility, and it can even load files in the SYS-EX/SYX format of the Yamaha DX7.
Super-Easy Sound Editing
The volca fm makes FM sound editing accessible with the MODULATOR/CARRIER super-easy edit knobs – the knob movements are mapped to multiple parameters for sound changes that are easy to understand. FM enthusiasts can also menu dive into full parameter edits. The volca fm comes accompanied with a Parameter List Guide to assist this.
Onboard CHORUS Effect
Along with a perfect reproduction of the sound engine, the volca fm is also equipped with a lush chorus effect to add depth to your sounds and further expand its sound-creating potential.
16-Step Sequencer
There's a loop sequencer with up to 16 steps, allowing you to record your performance on the touch panel keyboard just as you play. It's easy to create phrases that come to mind. Up to sixteen sequence patterns can be stored in internal memory. The motion sequence function records your knob movements, letting you add time-varying change to the sound. This is great way to polish your loops, and also lets you generate highly original live performances.
WARP ACTIVE STEP, ARPEGGIATOR and PATTERN CHAIN
In addition to the active step function that lets you skip steps during a sequence, the volca fm provides new functions that enable you to generate more irregular rhythms. If the active step is fewer than 16 steps, you can use the warp active step function to compensate to occupy the same playback time as 16 steps, then by synchronizing the playback with another volca series unit, you can deliberately skew the step timing to generate truly unconventional performances.
In a first for the volca series, the volca fm is also equipped with an arpeggiator. By using this in conjunction with a motion sequence you can create extremely eccentric rhythm patterns.
Furthermore, the pattern chain function lets you connect multiple sequence patterns for successive playback, making it possible to construct large-scale developments of 32, 64, or even 256 steps by joining up to 16 sequences.
Synchronise Two Volca Fm's
The volca fm provides a sync connector that can be easily connected to Korg's groove machines. Connect this to the other volca series unit, the electribe, or the SQ-1, and experience a session with synchronized sequencer playback. And when two units of volca fm are connected, you can clone the sound programs and sequence data from volca fm to volca fm. The MIDI IN jack lets you use the volca as a sound module for DAW and MIDI controller.

Read More. The Volca FM is a typically flawed/brilliant KORG piece. KORG come up with sexy designs but march to the weird beat of their own commercial drum, giving priority to surprisingly sophisticated features but at the price of leaving some important funcionalities off the menu, Thus requiring the user to accept and devise work arounds. In this case - MiDi out, keyboard velocity and patch storage space are the big omissions.. I'm not quite sure what to make of the FM in my short time with it so far. The Volca Sample seemed easier to bend to my will. Sound quality falls under the good enough category, it doesn't have the fullness of tone of a DX7 but that would be an unreasonable expectation given the price, but there is plenty of bottom end there, and it does sit well in a mix. Chimes and tines are clear enough, but unlike the Sample it doesn't seem to have its own sonic identity. I don't find it much easier to use than other FM synths - as I said at the top - what KORG give with one hand they take away with the other.. The knobs do speed up parameter changes, e.g. attack and decay is on the top level..hurrah...,.. but there is no space to store custom patches - boo! - sadly you have to overwrite the surprisingly nice presets. I recommend the Patch Base IOS app editor, although I have yet to try it. This should open up editing and storage quite a bit. Velocity is restricted to a slider, but parameter changes can be recorded which saves the day somewhat. To clarify - connecting a controller keyboard will not give you velocity response from the keys. In summary there is plenty here to enjoy and it's a good introduction to FM synthesis but one has to accept the little Volca FM for what it is; a tiny miraculous box of compromises, A good musician will devise a workflow path to make it sing, and like all Volcas there is a great deal of satisfaction in transcending its toylike origins. Reminds me of my old classic Mini Cooper. Cute and In the right hands; a giant killer. Unlike the Mini, the KORG is actually put together properly, so to sum up - it's a qualified thumbs up from me.
|Great value, excellent controls and sounds. A great way to access FM synthesis.

Kain 21Mature
As she was beginning to take a shower Jeff appeared next to me.
"Hey. Im back." He said.
"Your seeing me more often. Why is that?" I replied out of curiosity.
"Jane got on my nerves. So I came back here." He said sitting down on the couch, "So wheres that girl you wanna fuck?"
"I don't just want to fuck her you know."
"You sure about that porn watcher?" He said looking at me.
"Yes, im sure. Love isn't just about sexual relations."
"Good. Just making sure you were on point." He said standing back up.
"Why are you helping me?"
"Because I need you to take my place at the pizzaria tomorrow night." He said scratching the back of his head, "I got things to do."
"Like what."
"None of your business. I'll give you half of the money at the end of the week since your gonna be in friday."
"I never agreed- -"
"So where is that girl of your future?"
"Taking a shower."
"Ah... You ever feel like..."
"You know."
"No I don't"
"Have you ever seen someone naked before?"
"Ye- -"
"In person"
"Well here's your chance."
I walked outside as he followed to the window that was next to the house where she was showering. As we were both in our chibi forms our heads peeked up above the window as she was washing herself.
"Very... attractive indeed." I said.

We have been getting takeout from here for over 20 years. Their shrimp with lobster sauce is the absolute best; no one else seems to do it with the dark gravy like China House does. Always friendly, ready on time, even on New Year's Eve!
I have been going to China House for at least 15 years and have never had a bad experience. We have done both eat-in and takeout and everything has always been great. The takeout meals are big enough for a couple of days' worth of dinners.
Nothing special... Nothing bad but nothing all that great. Not my choice to go to if there are other Chinese restaurants around...
Been going here for years. Just went for Christmas eve. Even on such a busy day - food was excellent, staff nice. Really suprised at the one person that said horrible and the other that said grouchy. But I suppose everyone has a bad day once in a while. Not the quickest or cheapest, but delicious and huge portions.
The food is very good, I find the staff to be friendly and the service is prompt. They also give you a modest amount of food.I have Been going there for 20 years now.
I took my 3 daughters there for lunch. After waiting for 10 minutes a very rude waitress cme to take our order. She refused to order just 2 lunch combos for us. My 2 daughters had already eaten lunch. She said that those are the rules. She was totally rude and didn't care at all. We got up and left...
large dining area, big menu, but the staff is crabby, there is one woman in particular, I think she may be the owner-she's impatient and almost exasperated if you ask a question. After three times of this I won't go back. I've heard the same complaints from others, but they like the food. I would rather eat somewhere and be...
Some of the best Chinese around. The egg rolls and crab rangoons are amazing. We've never sat down to eat there, so I'm not sure about the service, but the take out service is excellent and they always throw in extra rice.
Have eaten here frequently over the last 10 years. Food is consistently good, and pricing is good as well. It's not Kowloon or Weylus, but a good local chinese food stop. Their lo mein is great, and their entrees are very tasty. Have not had a bad meal here yet.
Although we usually use carry-out, the China House is our favorite restraurant in town. The food is not only very good it is plentiful. I highly recommend the China House!

Episode 512: Can Mezcal Save A Village?
In the mountains of Oaxaca, in southern Mexico, there are basically no jobs. Villages are empty of young men, who go elsewhere in Mexico or to the U.S. to find work.
On today's show, we meet two cousins from Oaxaca who dream of bringing jobs to their village. Their strategy: Launch a startup to make mezcal, a popular local liquor — then get people in the U.S. to buy it.
Music: Music from the traditional Zapotec brass bands of the Sierra Norte in Oaxaca, Mexico. (recorded by Marianne McCune at the yearly fiesta in 2004). Find us: Twitter/ Facebook/Spotify/ Tumblr. Download the Planet Money iPhone App.

Aerwen: In The Council of Elders
I shifted uncomfortably, under the watch of so many, their wise, ancient eyes gazing at both Alaina and I. We stood in the center of the Great Hall. It truly a magnificent piece of living art, the eldest of all the trees of Grya arched their long bodies toward each other to meet in the center. Some were silvery-grey and others were pure white, their branches housing bird's nests and strange silver laterns made of captured pieces of fallen starlight. The laterns were made only once every two hundred years, when enough pieces were collected to make one, blessed by the King or Queen with a healing spell which mend the pieces together as one.
All the Elders paused-they still gasped as my sword, Aegoyoanye, shimmering like silvery water in the dim light, as it belonged to my passed father, the warrior of his age, made out of the same unique starlight. It had always done so in the light of the star laterns, as well as a full moon, but it always managed to amaze anyone around. In the old language, it meant Fallen Star, given to him as a gift from my mother before they took on the human custom of "marriage". When I had grown old enough, it had become my own.
Our Mother's eyes deep eyes glossed over as she watched the sword. I blushed as murmurs still echoed through the room. I had overheard their gossip before. Though I was young-very young for our race-many said they saw no promise in me. I did not speak much at all, that I wasn't as handsome as I should be, they said. That I was a shame to my family, and that Alaina-a spitting image of her father they said in both mind and body-should have inheirted the sword. And sometimes I thought so too.
"Enough," Mother commanded. She had never heard their bitter words of me, and I did not bother to tell her. She had much more to worry about. "Let us continue." She ran her hand over her elegant face. It was so flawless, but you could see her age in the shadows of her eyes. "All this news you tell me, my Daughters.....troubles me, certainly. As we left Aerthina, some of us knew that it would not be long before the Humans would follow us here. But....somehow I never believed it."
Her face was blank as some thought seemed to cross her, her eyes hardening. There was so much of her past that she never told Alaina and I, sometimes what she said was a mystery to me. She blinked, shaking away whatever memory haunted her, before continuing, "In this period of time, there is not much we can do. It sounds to me the Humans carry some....power with them...which when you sensed a presense of something you have never felt before."
"How?" demanded Elgor's harsh voice, ringing through the silence. He was even older than my mother, and had stood on the Council of Elders for unnumbered years. Mother had always expressed distaste for him in private, but could not do anything about him. He had always given me ugly looks ever since Mother had given me Father's sword, and his son, Eglen, was always sneering at how I did not deserve do not be of royal blood. "How ever could you have sensed Humans? And Human power? It is all nonsense." He walked out towards us, his grey eyes especially sharp on me. I stood up taller as he neared us, holding his stare with my own. I was not frightened of him. Or his wicked son.
"You believe my daughters are lying?" declared Queen Thera, her voice thundering across the hall. A few Elders shuddered, but Elgor froze, raising his eyebrow casually at our Mother.
"Of course not," he said smoothly, the slyness in his voice making Mother's lips into a firm, straight line, fire in her eyes. I watched her, frightened of what she may unleash on him. "I am simply suggesting that their inexperience and youth may lead them to conclusions, and to feel things that are plainly....not there. All youths make such mistakes."
His words infuritated me, and he knew it as he glanced at me from the corner of his eye with the most smug expression on his face. I understood Mother could not toss him out of the council. Each Elder represented a small clan of Elves, a ruler of their small clan. But they all reported to Queen Thera, who had ultimate authority over them all. She could indeed exclude Elgor from the council, she could've done it years ago, yet politically it would cost her. Especially in these turbulent times. Elgor had his allies, and so did she, and it would lead to the breaking of Gyra and battles between one another-not needed presently at all. She would do whatever she had to to keep the clans together underneath her.
Queen Thera averted her eyes, playing with a silver ring on her finger. "We shall take your claim into consideration," she said coldly. "Please step back to your seat, Elgor. Thank you."
"Thank you, my Queen," He touched his finger to his brow, as if mocking the respectful gesture.
