Study objectives: The objectives of this study were (1) to assess the prevalence of patent foramen ovale (PFO) by means of contrast transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea, and (2) to determine the potential contribution of right to left interatrial shunting to systemic oxygen desaturation following the performance of Valsalva maneuver.
Design: Performance of contrast TEE during Valsalva maneuver with simultaneous measurement of systemic arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) by means of pulse oximetry in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and a control group.
Setting: Government teaching hospital, university hospital affiliate.
Patients: Study group comprised 48 patients with documented obstructive sleep apnea and 24 control subjects.
Interventions: Sleep studies, contrast TEE, Valsalva maneuver, pulse oximetry.
Measurements and results: Thirty-three of 48 patients with obstructive sleep apnea compared with 4 of 24 control patients had a detectable PFO (69% vs 17%; p<0.0001). All sleep apnea patients had comparable baseline SaO2 regardless of the presence of a PFO (93.9±1.7% vs 95±1.2%; p=not significant). After performance of a Valsalva maneuver, however, a significantly greater fall in SaO2 was observed in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and PFO compared with patients with obstructive sleep apnea without PFO (−2.4±1.5% vs −1.3±0.6%; p=0.007). A statistically significant fall in SaO2 (defined as >4 SD of recorded SaO2 values after Valsalva maneuver in patients without PFO) was found in one third of patients with sleep apnea and PFO.
Conclusion: We conclude that there is an increased prevalence of PFO in patients with obstructive sleep apnea that could contribute to significant hypoxemia after a Valsalva maneuver in approximately one third of these patients.

Note to Self
Bye Bye, Cable Guy. Hello, Microwave Broadband.
Almost three years ago, two brothers decided to start an independent internet provider, Brooklyn Fiber.
The idea came to Eric Veksler, 31, when he was commuting to an IT job in Manhattan, and griping with his neighbors about spotty internet connections.
"In Red Hook, the service would go out for weeks," Veksler said.
He wondered: If the cable company won't come quickly and make a repair that lasts, how hard could it be to start your own broadband provider?
Instead of sending a signal over coaxial cable or fiber optic tubes, Brooklyn Fiber beams internet connections from a rooftop to its customers.

The Religious Society of Friends Quakers) has its origins in the 1640s and 50s, the time of the English Civil Wars and of Cromwell's Commonwealth. During this time George Fox and others gave to various groups of dissenters a unifying vision and a form of organisation which has survived largely to this day. From earliest days Friends were also known (jocularly) as Quakers, because they quaked in the presence of God - and the name has stuck. Thomas Symonds in 1654 was the first person in Norwich to be convinced. In the same year the first meeting was established and for some years regular Meetings for Worship were held in private homes or in the open air.
During the latter half of the seventeenth century the Society of Friends was a rapidly growing body. By 1670 the Friends had leased a building for meetings and in that year they purchased land at Gildencroft north of the river for use as a burial ground. From 1675 to 1679 they raised some £400 to provide themselves with a meeting house of their own. At the time the average man's wage was about £8 per annum. In 1676 they purchased a plot of land in Upper Goat Lane for £80 which forms part of the present plot, and on Wednesday 12th March 1679 they held their first meeting in the new meeting house on the site. After further fund-raising, a second meeting house was opened in April 1699 on land adjoining the burial ground at Gildencroft.
Early Norwich Friends were often artisans and small tradesmen; they were persecuted by the authorities and endured ridicule and violence from their neighbours. From December 1682 to November 1684, 17 of the Monthly (business) Meetings were held in Norwich Gaol. It is significant that John Defrance, who was Clerk of the meeting, was jailed on 3rd December 1682 and spent much time in gaol during the next 3 years. These hardships drew the Quakers into a closely-knit community who accepted responsibility for each other in times of distress and suffering. The carefully kept records of the time provide vivid details of the collective and personal history of early Friends.
After the ferment of the seventeenth century the period from 1700 to 1850 was one of comparative quiet for Friends, who were by now regarded as being "respectable". They provided effective social services, building almshouses in the courtyard of Goat Lane Meeting House for 4 poor Quakers in 1703; giving permission in 1715 for a member to run a school in the Meeting House; and reporting to London in 1725 that poor members were so well supported by Meeting that none need rely on parish relief Their standards of probity and fairness in business brought many of them wealth and influence and their identity with scientific and medical outreach was matched by their concern for social reform and education.
Elizabeth Fry is probably the best-known Quaker of this period; she was one of the eleven children of John Gurney, the Norwich banker, and worshipped in the original Goat Lane Meeting House as well as in the present one, completed in 1826. Elizabeth's brother Joseph John Gurney was a powerful advocate of the plan to replace the Goat Lane buildings. He was much influenced by the evangelical movement of the time and, as well as being one of the founders of the British & Foreign Bible Society, travelled widely in America on behalf of the Society of Friends.
Unfortunately, the new buildings were expensive to construct and maintain, and the local Quaker community found them a troublesome burden for many years. Membership meanwhile had declined and in 1851 the Meeting offered to sell Goat Lane Meeting House to Wesleyan Reformers, who would have been willing to rent it, but the two parties could not agree terms.
Fresh life and vigour was injected into the local Quaker community shortly after this low season, when Alexander Eddington came to the city as a partner in a family grocery business on Gentleman's Walk. He and his wife involved local Friends in the growing adult school movement. Adjacent buildings in Pottergate were acquired for the work in 1873 and again in 1883 and many people came into membership of the Society as a result of this close association
During the Second World War the Goat Lane buildings escaped direct bombing although much of the surrounding property was devastated. Postwar the Friends decided the Pottergate premises could be let to Norwich's first old people's club and to two firms as offices. The Gildencroft buildings were destroyed in an air raid in 1942; they were rebuilt in a more modest form in 1958 and now house the Treehouse Children's Centre. Friends retain the right to use the premises when interments are made in the adjoining burial ground.
Modernisation of parts of the Goat Lane premises was undertaken between 1973 and 1975, including the provision of well--appointed living accommodation for Wardens.
Today Quakers still meet for worship in Norwich as part of a worldwide movement. With nether clergy not a prepared order of service, meetings for worship are held largely in silence out of which anyone may speak briefly, as they feel led to do. This can develop a sense of the eternal behind a succession of everyday events.
Quakers try to live every day in simplicity, truth, equality and peace, seeing that of God in everyone. Meetings are held at Goat Lane on Sundays (10.45-11.45) and on Wednesday (12.30 - 1). The Wednesday meeting is followed by a simple lunch. Meetings for worship are open to anyone.

If he had been at Livermore, he showed no sign of the passions or anxieties that had filled the dark hours.
Mrs. Livermore turned her from side to side, and studied her long and earnestly.
Mr. Livermore was not against the principle of the motion; but in the present case he conceived it improper.
We are supplying Mrs. Livermore with the profession that Providence robbed her of.
Betty herself could not remember having been on a longer trip than to Livermore, a village ten miles away.
But Mrs. Livermore is as bad as you—she doesn't give a hang.
When the procession stopped before Mrs. Livermore's house, the jeers were over, and the dense crowd wept like children.
Mrs. Livermore presided at the annual meeting, January 8, 9.
I could see nothing of Doddridge Knapp, and the uneasy feeling that he was at Livermore came over me.

MORTERATSCH, SWITZERLAND – The hourlong walk from the local railway station to the Morteratsch glacier is a winding trek through a valley littered with rocks that the retreating ice left behind.
The walk was not always this long. In the mid-19th century, the Morteratsch glacier stretched all the way to the station in Morteratsch, a hamlet in southeastern Switzerland.
By 1900, people had to walk about 1 km to touch its shimmering blue surface.
In the past century, the ice has shrunk around 2.4 km, and signposts marking the glacier's "tongue" over the past century point to a decline that in recent years has accelerated dramatically.
"Each year we come here, we have to walk further to get to the glacier," said Joerg Wyss, a 43-year-old tourist from Lucerne, who said he has been visiting Morteratsch for 25 years.
Ursula Reis, a 73-year-old from Zurich, said she has been coming for even longer, visiting almost every year since 1953.
"I have seen the shrinkage. It's amazing and frightening at the same time," she said.
As closely studied by scientists as it is loved by the Swiss, the Morteratsch glacier provides one of the clearest examples of climate change in action, experts say.
Like almost all documented Alpine glaciers, it has been steadily shrinking for decades, and only its highest points are expected to see the turn of the next century.
"The glaciers are kind of a direct signal of climate change," said Samuel Nussbaumer, a scientist with the World Glacier Monitoring Service at the University of Zurich.
Since 1950, the glacier has receded by about 1.6 km. Its tip today is hidden in a forest of high trees, and even the 2010 signpost is separated by a good 200 meters of rocks from the glacier mouth, which emits gushing meltwater into an icy river.
"This is one part of the Morteratsch glacier where you can really see how fast the ice is melting away," said glacier guide Gian Luck, standing in a rock-strewn area that only three years ago was still covered with a system of ice caves, before they suddenly collapsed and disappeared.
A 2011 report from the European Topic Center on Air Pollution and Climate Change Mitigation, a consortium of institutes known by its acronym of ETC/ACM, found that more than half of the ice-covered areas and probably two-thirds of the ice volume in the Alps has disappeared since 1850.
From 2000 to 2010, the Alpine glaciers on average lost more than a meter of thickness each year, according to the study.
The rate of shrinkage is increasing.
"They are shrinking, and the rate of shrinkage is increasing," Nussbaumer said, adding that while factors like precipitation and wind play a part, rising temperatures are the main explanation.
Glaciers cover some 2,900 sq. km in the Alps, including 1,342 sq. km in Switzerland alone.
Scientists have warned that a summer temperature increase of around 4 degrees from today's levels will leave Europe's biggest mountain range almost iceless by 2100.
The Alps, like the Arctic and the Antarctica Peninsula, are considered a hot spot where warming can be two or three times greater than the global average.
"These ice giants could disappear literally in the space of a human lifetime, or even less," said Sergio Savoia, who heads conservation group WWF's Alpine office in Switzerland, stressing the need to "prepare for the serious consequences."
Globally, glaciers are one of the main contributors to sea level rise, and their contribution to shrinking shorelines is believed to have doubled in recent decades.
The new U.N. report on global warming, released in Stockholm on Friday, for the first time includes detailed estimates for melting ice from glaciers and ice sheets in its calculation of sea level rise.
The issue of rising sea levels is not as relevant to the Alps, though. If all of the region's glaciers melt, this will add only about 1 mm to ocean levels.
Locally, though, the effects will be dramatic.
The thick ice cover functions as a water tower that stores water, releasing it when it is most needed — in the hot and dry summer months.
The Alpine glaciers feed into some of Europe's biggest river systems, including the Rhone, Po and Danube, and if this source disappears, the effects will be felt across Europe, said Savoia.
"It's very hard to predict what will happen when the temperatures rise even more and we no longer have the compensating function of the glaciers," he said.
Melting glaciers can also cause natural hazards, ripping open crevasses, creating glacier lakes that can burst suddenly and increasing the risk of flash floods, landslides and mudslides.
While the effects of the vanishing Alpine glaciers will mainly be felt locally, only global action to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide can truly slow down the trend, Savoia said.

Analysis: "Housewives" heads to China as Hollywood inks deals
By Melanie Lee
SHANGHAI (Reuters) - Hollywood studios are set to break into China's massive Internet market as domestic video sites scramble to screen U.S. movies and dramas on their digital platforms, a move which could also curb rampant piracy.
China's Youku's and Sohu's online video platforms have already cut deals with Disney and CBS Corporation to stream U.S. drama serials such as "Desperate Housewives," "Grey's Anatomy" and "Gossip Girl," and more such deals are expected.
This represents a lifeline for Hollywood studios who have struggled to make money in China due to persistent piracy and the country's quota system that limits the number of foreign movies screened in theatres to 20 per year.
"Major Hollywood studios have struggled to find a viable business model in the China market and cooperating with China's online video sites for paid viewing of their content finally gives them a way to make money here," said Mark Natkin, managing director of Beijing-based consultancy Marbridge Consulting.
China is the world's largest Internet market, with more than 450 million Internet users, and online video firms are stepping up their fight to secure a bigger piece of the market share to win advertisers.
Advertising revenue in the domestic online video market, which was virtually non-existent five years ago, is now estimated to be worth 1 billion yuan ($155 million). This is expected to grow at double-digit rate for the time being.
Online video providers such as Youku have also started pay-per-view for some movies, thus giving them a new source of revenue.
Analysts say it's still too early to assess these deals' financial impact on Hollywood studios over the longer term, but agree that this offers a long-awaited entry point for Disney and others to the world's second biggest economy. Continued...

Chantell Driver came up with the big hit at the right time for Paducah Tilghman and broke open a 1-1 game.
The junior catcher led off the bottom of the seventh with a double that eventually led to courtesy runner Mackenize Ulmer's game-winning score from second Monday night. She scored on a throwing error by the pitcher to first on a ball put into play by center fielder Stephanie Sexton in the Lady Blue Tornado's 2-1 walk-off victory over St. Mary in the first round of the Second District Tournament.
"We had a job we had to do out here," said Driver, who stretched a sure single into the two-bagger. "We were hyped before the game and we had to come out and do something. It was nerve racking going up there, because I didn't do too well with my first two at bats. But I'm a part of this team and we all have a job to do. So I got up and did what I had to do to stretch my hit to a double. Then freshman Mackenize Ulmer came in there and did her job. So we did all together and we're slowly making changes."
The win moves second-seeded Paducah Tilghman (23-5) onto the Second District Tournament championship game on Wednesday night against top-ranked and district No. 1 seed McCracken County (31-5) at 7 p.m. at Sheppard Field.
More important is the win puts the Lady Blue Tornado into next week's First Region Tournament for the first time in program history.
"Getting into the region tournament has been like the Promised Land for Tilghman," said second-year coach Carl Johnson. "People stood in line to play Tilghman in softball. Now we're going to have to do like McCracken probably and travel to play ballgames. We're going to have to go to Illinois and travel farther than Louisville and Lexington just to play now. We're proud of our accomplishments."
St. Mary sees its season end with a 7-15 overall record.
Karlee Humphrey came away with the win for Paducah Tilghman and allowed eight hits and one earned run while striking out one.
Rachel Denkins took the loss for St. Mary. Denkins â " who threw a one-hitter through the first five innings â " ended up giving up two runs, only one was earned, and five hits. She struck out three.
"It was a great night for us," St. Mary coach Russ Carter said. "I love this team and I love how they competed. They never gave up. We're playing with seventh graders in the infield and had a bunch of older girls who accepted them and guided them, and that's what being a team is about. I couldn't be more happy."
The Lady Vikings took a 1-0 advantage with their run in the top of the sixth. Denkins led off with a single and, after getting to third on a ground out and a passed ball, scored on Kelly Word's bloop base hit to left.
Tilghman tied it up at 1-all in the bottom of the sixth when Briea Mayes, who led the inning off with a single, scored from third on a passed ball with two outs.
Driver then stepped up in the bottom of the seventh, hit her double and then was replaced by Ulmer.
Ulmer was initially just thinking about getting to third when Sexton put the ball into play and then had to turn on the jets to score the game winner.
"This feeling is just crazy," Ulmer said. "You work all season and practice and prepare for this moment. And then when it's you as a person that has the chance to make your team win and go on and go forward, the feeling is unexplainable. It's crazy. It's a great feeling."

A RAIDER who broke into the home of a woman he knew has been spared jail.
Craig Bell crept into the victim's house through an unlocked door, while her boyfriend was asleep on the sofa, and stole a laptop from upstairs.
The 32-year-old, of Cairo Street, Hendon, admitted burglary at Newcastle Crown Court. Judge Penny Moreland sentenced him to nine months' imprisonment, suspended for 18 months, with programme requirements and 120 hours' unpaid work.
The judge told him: "The burglary was a mean offence at the home of a lady who you know. This clearly had an impact on her."

My cat doesn't purr?
I mean, he purrs, i guess, but i can barely hear him! He's healthy ( i took him to the vet ). Also, he's not so into cuddling. He is an indoor cat, he's not aggressive. Do you think that there's sth wrong with him, or is it just his personality?

If you took your cat to the vet and the vet said it's ok, well there's nothing to be worried about, i mean - cats are like humans - one human loud other quiet - one likes being in a "spotlight" other don't etc. So, you're cat is simply a bit shy when it comes at purring.

If you've taken your baby to the vet and gotten a clean bill of health (including blood tests, etc.) then this is just his personality. My Ernie purrs so softly I can barely hear him. Delilah and Izzie purr so loudly that I can hear them from across the room. Ernie and Izzie (my boys) LOVE to cuddle (on THEIR terms, of course) but Delilah has NEVER sat in my lap and I've had her for a year. She will actually growl if I pick her up and she's not 'feelin' it' at the moment. Cats have to be accepted on their own terms. That's why I have a sign on my wall that says "The cats and their staff live here."

Oscar J. doesn't purr very loudly nor is he a lap cat. Very social, very affectionate, but he's really not into the whole sitting in your lap thing. I'd chalk it up to personality. We train dogs. Cats train us. :D

Sergei purrs, but i have to put my ear sooo close to him to hear him. And, also, he's not a "lap cat" either. But, than again, when sth "switches" in him - he is the most cuddliest cat on the world. So, you see, there's a lot cats that don't purr so loudly or like to cuddle. Just his personality...

Agreed! my Roomies cat Clawdia purrs so loud sometimes I can't sleep when shes sleeping by my head. Phil doesn't purr loud at all and I usually can only tell he's purring if i have my hand on his chest, or if his mouth is open..cause it sounds like a snorty purry throat grumble :-)

Phytates Revisited – What are Phytates?
In the Paleosphere, there's a lot of negative talk about phytates. Found in grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, we classify them as anti-nutrients because they decrease the bioavailability of minerals such as magnesium, zinc, iron and calcium and they're known to cause mineral deficiencies and accompanying deficiency diseases in cultures that rely heavily on grains as dietary staples. When eaten excessively, phytates may impede the function of pancreatic enzymes and interfere with digestion, contribute to bacterial overgrowth and increase gut … Continue reading

Kristen Bell Talks Baby Prep on "The Tonight Show"
Taking her growing baby bump out for some late night fun, Kristen Bell made a stop by "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Friday (January 11).
The "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" actress looked beautiful in a navy knee-length dress that accented her "400 pounds months" big belly.
Dishing on how she and her hubby Dax Shepard have prepared for the little one in "very different ways," Kristen said, "I have done like 'oh that looks cute for a bed sheet' and he has been feverishly searching the internet for a '96 Caprice station wagon with a LT1 Corvette motor because it's very important to him that our family car burns rubber."
GossipCenter first reported that the Hollywood pair had a bun in the oven back in November and it is expected that she will give birth in April or May.

I learned home-brewing when I was a kid. We did it in an open crock with cheesecloth over the top, and watched as the bubbles subsided to know when to add a little sugar and bottle! Things have changed!

I've been homebrewing beer for 13 years. It's a fun hobby and tastes great!
I started, like most, with extract brewing, and now I do grain steeping and partial mashes. I'm about to make the jump to all-grain.
My best recipie is for heavy nut-brown ale. It's not too heavy bodied, and even non beer drinkers like it.
Is there anyone else here that's been bitten by this bug?
I learned home-brewing when I was a kid. We did it in an open crock with cheesecloth over the top, and watched as the bubbles subsided to know when to add a little sugar and bottle! Things have changed!
I do. I stage 2 brew like you. I keep wanting to brew something new but always seem to go back to the pale ale because I like it so much. Apricot Pale is where it's at for me.
I'm an official taste tester!
Not yet, but I have been looking into it. I think it would be a good thing to know.
I will support gun control when you can guarantee all guns are removed from this planet. That includes military and law enforcement. When you can accomplish that, then I will be the last person to lay down my gun. Then I will carry the weapon that replaces the gun.
Absolutely! I've got a brown ale, a bourbon barrel porter, and a belgian ale in the kegerator right now! In fact, I think I'll go pour a pint...
I did when I had a more permanent place - look forward to getting back into it when things settle down some. I did grain steeps, but then I would also use malt syrup. My favorite was a Porter, but I made lots that turned out great! I'd like to eventually grow my own grain and hops, and do it all at home.
Yep, but not nearly enough. I have not gotten into the steeping process yet, there just doesn't seem to be enough time for all the hobbies, that I enjoy.
Just remember that shot placement is much more important with what you carry than how big a bang you get with each trigger pull.

Shot-placement is king. Adequate penetration is queen. Everything else is angels dancing on the heads of pins.
yep. been brewing for years. almost exclusively all-grain, though I will do an extract/specialty grain or extract/partial mash from time to time. My specialties are meads, cider/perry, brown ales, and Scottish ales. I also do liqueurs. Used to compete and judge. After I had to stop drinking because of my kidneys, I started teaching. Still love it, though.

I just ordered up ingredients for 2 new batches. One will be my regular nut-brown recipie, and the other will be an experiment. Will it be amber? Will it be dark? Only the grains will know for sure!
What do you use/where do you get your supplies? I know there was Mr. Beer shop walking distance from my house,but I'm unsure if they are still open(never went out there.)
I do enjoy beer, I wonder if I could make a good home brew. I prefer Newcastle, Tecate, Yuenglin,Icehouse,..

How to Make Deviled Eggs Healthier (Page 5)
4. Use Two-Thirds Of The Yolks
(The yolks have most of the calories and fat in eggs. One yolk has 5 grams of fat and 54 calories, compared with only 16 calories and no fat in an egg white.) Instead, use nonfat cottage cheese to stand in for some of the yolks—it keeps the filling velvety and rich while reducing some of the fat.

"The military say always salute the flag before you disagree with your commanding officer. If you can demonstrate that you share purpose and mutual respect, then your boss won't feel that you are attacking them. Show your boss that you disagree in a way that will help them. Make it very clear up front that you're not attacking. You have a disagreement you want to share with them, but the disagreement will help them, not hurt them."

I live not far from where this happened. My understanding is the local LEOs are not entirely happy with this situation. It was DPS who fired from their helo. It truly is a shame that people died here.
I think one of the biggest problems with these chases is that the ones running are increasingly using caltrops against those following. It is almost impossible to find all of the caltrops thrown out during a chase and they pose quite the danger the innocent drivers later on.
It is just a mess all around with desperate smugglers vs increasingly militarized police forces.

BROADWAY BY GUITAR, co-produced by Scott Siegel & Sean Harkness, with musical direction on the guitar by Sean Harkness, written/directed by Scott Siegel -- features a galaxy of stars: Rita Harvey (The Phantom of the Opera + concert artist), Michael Romeo Ruocco (film & theater star), Francesca Capetta (An Italian In New York at 54 Below), Rebecca LaChance (Beautiful), and Kelli Rabke (Joseph & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat).
Producer Siegel says: "I'm delighted to be bringing these talented performers to Feinstein's/54 Below..."
"Broadway veteran Rita Harvey is Ren's mom, Ethel McCormack, and I will shamelessly say I'm a huge fan. This troupe was so fortunate to have such a personage in their midst. Her lilting, extraordinary soprano voice, paired with the loving, playful relationship she portrays with her son is an important and sustaining element to the story."
Rita will be playing Ethel (Ren's Mother) this summer in "Footloose" at the Fulton Theater in Lancaster, PA. This is a great theatre and the show should be a lot of fun!
Stage Adaptation by Dean Pitchford
and Walter Bobbie
Based on the Original Screenplay by Dean Pitchford
Music by Tom Snow
Lyrics by Dean Pitchford
Additional Music by Eric Carmen, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Loggins and Jim Steinman
One kid. One town. One chance... to DANCE!
When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. What he isnt prepared for are the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, determined to exercise the control over the town's youth that he cannot command in his own home. When the reverend's rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, many of the locals eagerly believe the worst about the new kid, overlooking the personal aching in both the youth and adults that fuels the need to "cut loose." The rockin' rhythm of its Oscar and Tony nominated top 40 score (the soundtrack album reached number one on the Billboard charts and has sold over 15 million copies!) and augmented with dynamic new songs for the stage musical, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people, guiding them with a warm heart and an open mind.

Ecstasy primarily affects the brain's serotonin center. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is related to your mood and feelings of well-being. In the short term, ecstasy increases serotonin levels to make you feel happy and euphoric. The long term effects of ecstasy on the serotonin center, however, can be permanent and result in feelings that are quite the opposite.
Long term ecstasy use can result in irreversible damage to the brain that can affect all the ways serotonin functions. Essentially, it can limit the amount of serotonin your body produces and block serotonin from doing its job. It can negatively impact our ability to sleep, remember things, and be happy. Long term effects of ecstasy include memory loss, difficulty sleeping, difficulty concentrating, depression, anxiety, mood swings, and even psychosis.
There are studies that suggest long term ecstasy use can also result in other types of brain damage, including the reduction of overall brain mass.

Let's talk something about a cool raining night in the village of town near Vegas. The sky was cloudy and rainy in fact cool breeze was blowing, I was hungry and asked my wife to bring hot cup of coffee and some biscuits or piece of cake. I open my laptop and start chatting with my friends in Ohio; I installed skype last month and signup skype to create my wife account too. We both make video and audio calls to keep in touch with relatives because here in the town it is very difficult to go telephone both to call anybody. i just want to say thanks to skype for this excellent service for people because they can call free to anywhere in the world.

Well guys as of last Thursday I am now at 39,700 rounds fired. I only have about 500 rounds left and am low on money. So I guess it won't be until December before I reach the 40,000 mark.
Have Fun and Shoot Straight !!
Excellent! Call Colt and see if they want to turn you and your gun into an ad or something; could finance more shooting!
As we used to teach in the spook business, carry a 25 if it makes you feel good, but do not ever load it. If you load it you may shoot it. If you shoot it you may hit somebody, and if you hit somebody - and he finds out about it - he may be very angry with you. -- Jeff Cooper
Congrats on soon reaching 40,000. That's quite a milestone, but not unusual for a Colt.

big surprise cops or agents dotn like being dissed. I know 20 cases where people were treated like shit for not bending over backwards for a cop. My old roomate from WMU was arrested for "inciting a riot" for simply telling another buddy he didnt have to submit to a breathalizer on the spot. My brother same thing, he was arrested for telling his buddy not to submit to a breathalizer and that he could make the police call his personal doctor and have his physican draw blood or give breathalizer.LOL how the hell do they justify arresting you for knowing the law ???? Anothertime My bro was given the shakedown by police who wanted $400 bond for his buddy last year, my bro paided cash and the police REFUSED to give him a receipt. When he insisted he get a receipt they almost arrested him untill he relented (we suspect they were doctoring the books and keep the difference).
My point?
the system atleast worked for this guy .......and his charges were droped .... had dick cheney not been the key figure it would not have made the news. I think a good 10-15% of cops are total dicks and a SS agent being so highprofile i can see their head swelling even more than your local average cop. You can get arrested for looking like a known wanted man ... ME I TRY TO AVOID COPS AND TROUBLE, not to tick them off and test the limits. Guess i am wiser than that old dude who got arrested :tonka:

Milloy: Not a happy return [8:11 AM]
Boston Globe reports: '"During the week I didn't really think about it," the former Patriots defensive captain said of his first return to Foxborough since being released in September and landing in Buffalo. "But on the way here it really did start to get weird for me. As we got close to the stadium I had to hold back the emotions. I didn't want my teammates to see me like that. It was the final step of closure. I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to the fans before, but now it's over."'
Brady again manages to win [8:11 AM]
Boston Globe reports: 'Brady capped off that year with four first-half touchdown passes in a game we really have no choice but to label the Payback Bowl. Who among us was unaware that when the Patriots traveled to Buffalo Sept. 7 for the season opener, that the Bills had manhandled them by -- is this coincidence, or what? -- a score of 31-0? There really was no need for Belichick to go into his Rockne mode, whatever that might be (Actually, I'd pay pretty good money to hear that speech). "I don't think anybody was particularly proud of that opening game," Belichick said.'
This `nothing' was something [8:10 AM]
Boston Globe reports: 'Here is the unvarnished truth: Your Patriots are the best team in football.'
Trying this team's giant status on for size [8:09 AM]
Boston Globe reports: 'We are the joke no more. We are the Detroit Red Wings. We are the Los Angeles Lakers. We are the (gulp) New York Yankees.'
Coordinating job interviews [8:08 AM]
Boston Globe reports: 'Drew Bledsoe was sacked 49 times for the season, five fewer than last season and 17 more than the Patriots' Tom Brady.'
Patriots winning streak [8:07 AM]
Boston Globe reports: 'Drew Bledsoe completed just 12 of 29 passes for 83 yards with 1 interception for the Bills.'
Pats exact revenge on Bills in 31-0 rout [8:06 AM]
Boston Herald reports: '``The road to the Super Bowl goes through Foxboro,'' defensive lineman Richard Seymour [news] said. ``Everyone knows that.'''
Bruschi busts Bledsoe, Bills [8:06 AM]
Boston Herald reports: '``It was fluttering up there kind of like a Christmas gift from him,'' Vrabel said. ``But it was a big play.'''
Givens caps season with another gem [8:05 AM]
Boston Herald reports: '``When we are spread out like that with four or five guys to throw to, that puts the defense back on its heels a little bit. It makes the offense more effective in the fact that guys are out there getting open and any pass play can go to a different guy.'''
Brady pains Buffalo [8:04 AM]
Boston Herald reports: '``(Offensive coordinator) Charlie Weis decided early on that he wanted to spread (the receivers) out and see if they could cover all our guys. . . . We took advantage of the fact that we saw their coverages, our guys knew the coverages, and our guys knew how they were going to get open in those routes.'''
Ironic ending to Milloy's season [8:03 AM]
Boston Herald reports: '``The irony is crazy,'' Milloy said. ``We got them and they came right back and got us the same way. There was no doubt they beat us pretty badly.'''
Backers bask in glory days [8:02 AM]
Boston Herald reports: 'And what a play, Larry Izzo! The ace special teamer, in as a sub on Buffalo's final drive, intercepted a pass in the end zone with 13 seconds to play to give under bettors a very extra, and financially beneficial, Christmas gift.'
Offense sets trap for Buffalo, other game [8:02 AM]
Boston Herald reports: ' It wasn't a trap game after all. Not even close. Actually, it was more like a statement game.'
Weis, Crennel up for grab [8:01 AM]
Boston Herald reports: 'The pair could also draw interest from Buffalo general manager Tom Donahoe, who is expected to fire Gregg Williams this week. While Donahoe is thought to be seeking a candidate with head coaching experience (Jim Haslett?), he has also shown a penchant for picking off Patriots personnel (Drew Bledsoe, Lawyer Milloy, Sam Gash).'
Reversal of fortunes [8:00 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'Truth be told, yesterday's game was over in the first five minutes.'
Brady wastes no time in achieving goal of redemption [7:59 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'Brady completed 21 of 32 passes for 204 yards, setting a season-high and matching a career-high with his four TD's.'
Pats' Givens excels, now that he's been given the opportunity [7:58 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'Givens caught seven passes for 80 yards and a touchdown to lead the Patriots corps of receivers in the 31-0 trouncing of Buffalo.'
Loss punctuates Bledsoe's sad year [7:57 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'He was supposed to be their savior.'
Surreal day brings closure to Milloy [7:56 AM]
Providence Journal reports: '"During the week, I really didn't think about it too much, but on the way here just driving down the highway, seeing some familiar sites and stuff, it really did start to get weird for me," the safety said following the Bills' 31-0 loss to New England. "I had to hold back the emotions a little bit. I didn't want my teammates to see that. It was just a surreal experience."'
Brilliant Patriots upstaged by fruitless A-Rod clamor [7:55 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'Yet, in the midst of what has been a stunning and dazzling run, New England fans have been more fixated on whether A-Rod would be coming to Boston than whether the Pats would be going to Houston for the Super Bowl.'
Failure on the first drive left the Bills buffaloed [7:54 AM]
Providence Journal reports: 'After two Travis Henry runs, the Bills had a first down at its 33. Henry motioned out of the backfield, leaving Drew Bledsoe alone. Obviously, he would throw.'
Two-minute drill [7:53 AM]
Providence Journal reports: ' The first-team defense held the Bills to 102 yards through the first three quarters.'
Izzo's special savvy in the clutch saves shutout [7:52 AM]
Providence Journal reports: '"You saw the energy," said linebacker Matt Chatham. "In the stadium. On the field. You looked around and 11 guys were jacked. It could have been the first play of the game or the last play of the Super Bowl. It was pride. You had 53 guys who bought into the team thing and the number 31-0 was symbolic. Sticking it to them the way they stuck it to us was important."'
Rough day for Drew and Co. [7:51 AM]
Metro West Daily News reports: '"I couldn't imagine, especially after the start of the season (wins over New England 31-0 and Jacksonville 38-17), I absolutely couldn't imagine us being in this situation," said Bledsoe. "Yes, it's been a very, very, very tough season."'
Brady is undoubtedly the NFL MVP [7:50 AM]
Metro West Daily News reports: '"People talk about Peyton Manning," says fullback Larry Centers, "but it's not even close."'
The end justifies the means for Pats [7:49 AM]
Metro West Daily News reports: '"Very ironic," said Harrision. Game 1, game 16, same two teams, 62-point turnaround. No irony, just two very different teams over 111 days. "Shows that it's a long season," said Harrison.'
Coaching window open [7:48 AM]
Metro West Daily News reports: 'Tom Donahoe has spoken highly of the Patriots' coaching this season, and thus, could target Crennel or Weis should he fire Gregg Williams.'
Patriots Clinch Home Field [7:48 AM]
Hartford Courant reports: '"It was payback, because they humiliated us in Buffalo," safety Rodney Harrison said. "We let it all loose today. We wanted to go out here and make a statement and prove a point. We wanted to return the favor."'
Brady Lets It Loose [7:47 AM]
Hartford Courant reports: 'Brady threw touchdown passes to four different receivers, and when he connected with David Givens on a 10-yard TD pass with 3:55 left in the first half, Adam Vinatieri's extra point made it 28-0.'
Act Of Revenge Perfectly Designed [7:46 AM]
Hartford Courant reports: 'The Patriots did worse than demolish the Bills. They toyed with them. They picked a score and made it happen. It was the same score the Bills had beaten the Patriots by in the opener. The payback was rich. Remember how everybody was calling for lawyers, guns and money after the Patriots cut Lawyer Milloy and he landed in Buffalo? Well, the only lawyer needed 16 weeks later is one to negotiate the deal on a new Bills coach. Gregg Williams is so g-gone and so is offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride.'

MS PowerPoint: Who Knew That the F2 Key Has a Use Here Too?
As I'm sure you already know, the F2 key when used in MS Excel will put you into the editing mode for the contents of a selected cell.
It's a really handy little tool, since you can navigate through the sheet with the keyboard and with the F2 key, put the cursor into the cell's contents allowing for editing. (Without placing the cursor into the cell for editing, any information you enter will replace the cell's contents.)
Well, here's an equally handy tidbit of news for my PowerPoint users… F2 does basically the same thing with the text placeholders as it does with cells in Excel.
When you have a content placeholder selected and you just begin typing, PowerPoint will put your cursor at the end of the current information and just tack it onto the end.
In contrast… if you have a placeholder selected and hit F2, you'll find that your cursor is now in the placeholder ready to be relocated within the text for additions or editing.
Done editing?
No problem, use F2 again to stop editing text and select the placeholder.
With the placeholder selected, you can then use the Tab key to rotate through all the placeholders on the slide.
Ready to move to the next slide? Use the Page Up & Page Down keys.
When you get to your destination, nothing is selected – never fear – we still don't need the mouse. Use the Tab key and the first placeholder will be selected so that now the Tab key rotates through them and the F2 key will toggle you in and out of editing a particular placeholder.
What could be easier? F2 and you're editing, F2 again and you're not… no mouse work required!

I have taken apart my Rem o/u derringer for a full clean, inspection, and lube job. I can't get the mainspring to line up with its retainer screw. I guess it may need a special tool to compress the spring at some point on the frame. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My hubby drives a 2012 CTS, I have a 2013 Volt. I haven't been behind the wheel of the cadi in months until this evening. I took it to the store and was amazed at how much better I like the handling, ride, and overall feel of the Volt compared to the cadi. It seemed loose in the steering, the shifting was rough, plus no low gear (of course) so I was tapping the breaks all the time...I'm definitely spoiled by the volt!!
(Just an observation I had to share)

Indiana man dies after being trapped under piano
SOUTH BEND, Ind.
Police say a man in his 90s died after he became trapped under a piano inside his home near South Bend.
St. Joseph County police Sergeant Bill Redman say that family members checked on him Tuesday evening after not hearing from him for much of the day. He was pronounced dead when emergency crews arrived.
Redman tells the South Bend Tribune that investigators believe the man was moving items to prepare for an upcoming auction, as he planned to soon join his wife in a retirement home.
Police didn't immediately release the man's name.
