Ibuprofen / oxycodone Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Warnings
Ibuprofen / oxycodone is also known as: Combunox
Ibuprofen / oxycodone Pregnancy Warnings
Ibuprofen-oxycodone is considered contraindicated in the third trimester of pregnancy due to the potential for ibuprofen to cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosus and pulmonary hypertension in the fetus and/or neonate. Ibuprofen-oxycodone is considered contraindicated prior to and during labor and delivery since ibuprofen may inhibit prostaglandin synthetase and thereby possibly prolong labor and inhibit delivery, the oxycodone may possibly cause respiratory depression in the newborn. There have been reports of withdrawal symptoms and/or respiratory depression in neonates whose mothers were taking narcotic analgesics during pregnancy.
Ibuprofen-oxycodone has been assigned to pregnancy category C prior to 30 weeks gestation and category D starting at 30 weeks gestation by the FDA. Animal studies failed to reveal evidence of teratogenicity or developmental toxicity. There are no controlled data in human pregnancy. Ibuprofen-oxycodone is only recommended for use during pregnancy when benefit outweighs risk. Ibuprofen-oxycodone is considered contraindicated during the third trimester of pregnancy (starting at 30 weeks gestation) and immediately prior to or during labor and delivery as premature closure of the ductus arteriosus may occur.
Ibuprofen / oxycodone Breastfeeding Warnings
Ibuprofen has not been detected in human milk. Ibuprofen is considered compatible with breast-feeding by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Oxycodone is excreted into human milk. Adverse effects in the nursing infant from oxycodone therapy have not been reported. However, there is potential for withdrawal symptoms to occur in breast-fed infants when maternal administration of an opioid analgesic, like oxycodone, is discontinued. The manufacturer recommends that due to the potential for serious adverse effects in nursing infants from oxycodone, a decision should be made to discontinue nursing or discontinue ibuprofen-oxycodone, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.

Hoops trending upward
by Scott Harris, Assistant Sports Information Director
The Tiger Basketball team continued their year-to-year improvement under head coach Dee Vick '94 as they won 19 games after winning 17 a season ago. H-SC earned a first-round bye in the ODAC Tournament, courtesy of securing the #4 seed in the tournament. Facing #5-seeded Lynchburg College in the quarterfinals, the Tigers defeated the Hornets 82-60 to earn a shot against #1-seed Virginia Wesleyan in the semi-finals. After leading for most of the second-half, the Tigers ended up falling by just two points. The team had a chance to win the game at the buzzer, but a three pointer hit off the front of the rim.
Hampden-Sydney had several notable regular season games. On Senior Day, the Tigers defeated archrival Randolph-Macon 79-71. H-SC also defeated Patrick Henry College 140-40, en route to getting airtime on SportsCenter and other ESPN shows. The Tigers won the Huntingdon College Classic and the Bojangles Christmas Classic. Hampden-Sydney swept conference foes Washington & Lee, Lynchburg, and Bridgewater, while also defeating Eastern Mennonite, Roanoke, and Emory & Henry. The Tigers also secured a season split with Randolph-Macon and Randolph College.
The 19-8 record is the most wins by a Tiger team since 2007 (19-11) and the highest winning percentage (70.4%) since the 2004 team won 83.3% of their contests. Two student-athletes earned All-ODAC honors: junior forward Harrison George was tabbed First-Team All-ODAC for the second straight year and sophomore center Khobi Williamson earned Third-Team honors.
George finished the season averaging 16.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.9 steals. He shot 57.5% from the floor and 69% from the free throw line. He led the team in rebounds, assists, steals, and total points scored, making him one of only three players in the conference to lead his team in all four categories. George also eclipsed the 1,000-point mark early in the season and now has 1,335 points, good for 11th in school history. Williamson averaged 10.8 points along with 6.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks a contest. He led the conference in field goal percentage at 63.7% and was fourth in blocked shots.
Seniors Ru White and Ben Jessee closed out their career this year. Jessee concluded his career with 1,164 points, placing him 26th in school history. He also canned 216 three-pointers as he made 50 or more in all four of his seasons. This year, he averaged a career-best 11.3 points and 43.9% shooting. White played just two years at H-SC but made a big impact in both seasons. A full-time starter both years, he finished his career with 576 points, 295 rebounds, 129 assists, 71 steals, and 46 blocks.
The Tigers will lose just two players to graduation, and with a strong freshman class and many players showing tremendous year-to-year improvement, look for the 2013 Tigers to contend for their 11th ODAC Championship and a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
Mavromatis Brothers Ready for Final Run Together
by Jac Coyne
(This article originally appeared in Lacrosse Magazine on January 25, 2012, and is reprinted with permission.)
Carter Mavromatis has a stress ball in the center console of his car; you know, those memory-foam orbs that supposedly whisk away angst with a couple of squeezes. On his drive back to Hampden-Sydney from his home in Virginia Beach earlier this month, Mavromatis had that ball in a death grip.
As a pre-dental major, it's somewhat understandable, but all of the agitation Mavromatis was feeling was due to the impending lacrosse season.
"I was sweating coming back from Christmas break just thinking about the exciting games we have coming up: the Roanokes, Lynchburgs, and W&Ls," Mavromatis said in his standard coastal twang. "I'm pumped. I'm up for the challenge, for sure."
The senior middie is typically known for his laid-back, beach attitude, but as one of the key cogs in the Tiger machine that has sky-high expectations this spring, he can't help but get excited about the prospects that this season hold. It will be extra special for Mavromatis because he'll have a very familiar face on the field with him—his younger brother Corey, a freshman this year.
He's familiar to Carter, but the rest of the players and coaches on the team feel like they know Corey, as well. That's because he's basically a replica of his older brother. They are even confused with each other on campus with roughly the same build—5-foot-10 and 160 pounds, or so—and looks.
"Around here we're getting that all the time, people saying we look like twins," Carter said. "From our eyes, we just sort of say, 'What?' But we get that all the time."
"Corey is just like Carter, other than fact that he is right-handed," said Hampden-Sydney head coach Ray Rostan. "Corey is the same kid. He comes in and he smiles. Those kids never make you unhappy. They never have a down day. If they have a down day, you wouldn't know it. They come in, smile and work hard."
Where they appear as identical twins—or at least mirror images—is when they step on the field.
"We have our differences, but from me growing up going to his games, watching what he did and what made him successful, I would try those things in my practices and games, and I found that they made me successful, too," Corey said. "I grew up watching him and mimicking what he was doing."
Unlike some brother combinations that compete over everything imaginable, the Brothers Mavromatis have a more laid-back relationship. "For the most part, we've been really close friends rather than brothers," Corey said. The only time the two would really get heated was when they competed against each other growing up, whether it was in soccer, basketball or lacrosse.
"We had the brother duel once in a while, but it was mainly just feeding off each other," Carter said. "He was someone who I could actually play one-on-one. My senior and junior year of high school, kids my age wouldn't put up as good a one-on-one battle as Corey would in ninth grade. He has great athletic ability. I just grew up playing with him and getting better at whatever it was."
Said Corey: "I remember when my brother was playing JV basketball and I would just go and hang out at practice. Their coach would grab me and say, 'Guard your brother and foul him as much as you want to.' We'd get after it. I wasn't always playing by the rules because I was a lot smaller, but it definitely helped him and it definitely helped me toughen up."
The two may combine one last time in hopes of getting Hampden-Sydney into the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2003.
Carter is a proven playmaker out of the midfield, and has produced since the day he arrived at Hampden-Sydney after starring at Cape Henry Collegiate School. He has notched at least 30 points every season, including last year's 56-point performance, and he led the Tigers in assists (30) last year. Corey is a natural attackman who is extremely dangerous behind the cage, but Rostan said the rookie will likely see the bulk of his time in the midfield considering Sydney's senior-laden attack unit returning this year.
If Corey is running at attack or on the same midfield line as his older brother, they'll be hoping to reenact their lone season together four years ago when Carter was a senior and Corey a frosh.
"I'd credit about 70 percent of my goals to him that year because he was getting double-teamed left and right, and he'd set me up for crease dunk," said Corey. "That was probably our strongest year where we connected the most."
However, if Corey winds up on the second midfield line with two other highly touted rookies, including the younger brother of Cole Hawthorne, who led Sydney in points last spring, Carter knows he'll do just fine. Even though Corey blew out his knee during his junior soccer season, he's back to full strength heading into 2012.
"There are not many guys who can stop his quickness," Carter said. "He's a real shifty guy. We've got a lot of good freshmen, which is pretty exciting."
If the two brothers mesh as well on the field as they do off it, that stress ball may get a long rest this spring.

I was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in February, 2005. I just underwent 10.5 months of chemotherapy in three different locations. I was a "normal" law school student in 2/05 but I had some pain in my groin that just wouldn't go away with physical therapy. I was diagnosed with a high grade osteosarcoma on my right pelvis, the acetabulum to be specific. I was diagnosed by the good people at Tulane University Hospital and Clinic (before Katrina wrecked the place – what a sad, sad, day that was for me when I heard of all the people in the hospital dying as a result of lack of power and resources). I got a second opinion at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NY, NY. I saw a nasty doctor (the only nasty doctor I have dealt with through this whole ordeal) and she indicated the seriousness of my illness. I wanted to do my chemotherapy in New Orleans and Los Angeles, where my fiancée and I were planning on moving after graduation from law school which was to happen to in May 2005. She told me that it was imperative that I do the chemotherapy in Philadelphia, where my family was, so that they could provide me with support. This doctor also told my father that my chances of survival were terrible because the osteosarcoma was on a short-bone, my pelvis, and not a long-bone – the most common, and curable place where osteosarcomas are found. She told my dad that my chances were bad because the cancer was extremely close to the trunk of my body. My father never told me that she told him this until long after this visit. After leaving her office I vomited repeatedly (something I would have to get used to during my chemo). I felt doomed!
Upon returning to New Orleans, I had a decision to make…whether I would go to LA or Philly. I started my chemo in New Orleans and the first cycle of adrio/cisplatin really hit me hard. It was during this time that I decided to go to Philadelphia and not to LA. My fiancée was taking the CA bar exam and she needed to be in LA to do this. I decided that I would complete my two rounds of chemo in New Orleans, graduate from law school (which I did, in the top 10 percent of my class, getting a 4.0 that semester which I was going through chemo), move to Philadelphia, have surgery and move to LA to finish my treatment. I thought to myself, screw that nasty doctor, I'm not going to let this thing beat me, I'm going to be it. That was my attitude throughout the whole thing. When I was told I had cancer, my initial reaction was not "why me?," it was, "what do I need to do to get this thing out of me and beat it, so it will never come back."
Well, after two rounds of chemo at Tulane, and graduating from Tulane Law School, I moved to Philadelphia (where my family was from) to have surgery with Dr. Richard D. Lackman a renowned limb salvage specialist. He was very confident in his abilities and upon meeting him and him looking at my most recent CT and MRI studies he told me "this tumor isn't so bad…you're going to be able to walk again." He then indicated that I needed to do another round of chemo to shrink the tumor even more…THANK GOD THE CHEMO WAS WORKING (throughout my travels with this disease I have learned that the chemo doesn't work with everybody and I was lucky). I went through another round of chemo at Pennsylvania Hospital — this time it was outpatient as opposed to inpatient chemo I received in New Orleans. During chemo, I lived a relatively normal life, even though I was sick as a dog. I attended my brother's wedding, was the best man and delivered an awesome "best man speech." My fiancée, bless her heart, was studying for the CA bar in LA, but she traveled to Philly to visit me as much as she could.
After my third round of chemo was over I scheduled to have surgery — an internal hemi-pelvectomy (basically they took out 3/4 of my pelvis and left the top of my hip bone and basically tied them together…the muscles, over time, were supposed to scar in and form a "socket" for my femur b/c the real socket was being taken out of me. A week after my surgery, I was still in the hospital, Dr. Lackman visited me and told me that I had 100% necrosis (this was a godsend b/c it indicated that my long-term prognosis was excellent, 90% chance of survival). He also said that the chemo worked so well that my bone had grown back over the dead tumor and if he didn't know better he would have thought that my pelvis was healthy. He said maybe one day in the future when they know more about this disease that they might not even need to take the pelvis out. I spent 2 more weeks in the hospital and got the hell out of there. I hated hospitals at this point and was ready to be home. I was still in a whole lot of pain b/c the surgery was major. I was on crutches, but it hurt to do anything, sit, stand. I couldn't walk without the crutches.
I completed another round of chemo in Philly. I had a major setback after getting my last dose of high dose methotrexate — the chemo settled in an open cavity where liquid had settled in my body and began attacking my GI track. I had terrible diarrhea and was hospitalized for two weeks, 10 days of which I was not allowed to eat. This was the low point of the whole process. After a week and half of recovering after getting out of the hospital I was given the go-ahead to move to LA to finish my chemotherapy with Dr. Sant P. Chawla a world renowned sarcoma specialist (he pioneered the Adriomycin/Cisplatin/Methotrexate trio of drugs to fight osteosarcoma and is a major advocate of also using High Dose Ifosphomide (which I did not receive). I completed two more rounds of chemo with Dr. Chawla at his outpatient offices. His system was the best I experienced. They had portable pumps that would inject the chemo over a longer period of time so the side effects would not be as harsh. By that time I had had so much chemo that my body didn't care how slow the chemo was being infused, I still got bad nausea. Throughout the whole process there was a wide array of anti-nausea drugs prescribed to me, but the best thing that I used was not prescribed, it is illegal (but should not be)…marijuana. It was the only thing that provided me with relief from the terrible nausea I experienced.
I finally completed chemo in January of 2006 and now I am on the road to recovery. I was a very lucky person that the cancer never spread, and that I had such a good tumor response rate, in fact I had the best response possible. Throughout this time I have met many wonderful people including nurses, doctors, and fellow patients. I feel so lucky to have met you all…you, as well as this disease, have changed my life for the better. It made me value every day and cherish it because it might be my last. I am currently going through physical therapy so that I can walk again. I have a 2.5 inch lift in my right shoe because my right leg is 2.5 inches shorter than my left. I am finally walking with only one crutch (after being on two crutches since my surgery in August). My doctors told me that I would never be able to ride a bike, but believe it or not, I am currently riding an exercise bike to get in better shape (and to strengthen my leg while I am awaiting Medi-Cal (state based Medicaid) to authorize my physical therapy treatment. If anybody has any questions regarding insurance, I am a veteran of the state health insurance systems (having procured medical insurance provided by the state in both Pennsylvania and California) as well as the federal government's welfare system (because I am "permanently disabled" until 2007 I am currently receiving Social Security Disability, and SSI).
I really believe that I had such a good response rate because I had a very positive attitude. Throughout this whole ordeal whenever I would feel bad for myself I would tell myself that there were people worse off than I, I was lucky to have detected the disease so early, and to have access to such great, world-renowned doctors. I am proud of the way in which I dealt with the adversity. I fought hard and that is why I'm here today. The mind is more powerful than the body is extremely true. I had great support from my family as well as my fiancée's family. If you are having a tough day going through the chemo, just know that it will be over one day and the days that you don't feel bad from the chemo TAKE ADVANTAGE AND LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLEST. We are all lucky to be here, and we are lucky to be living in this day and age where the medical technology is impeccable. If I had contracted this cancer in 1980 I had a 10 percent chance of survival…today I have a 90 percent chance of survival (and if I didn't have 100 percent necrosis I would still have a 70 percent chance of survival).
If you are in New Orleans I would suggest you visit Tulane Hospital and Clinic (now located at the Lakeside branch). Dr. Scott Wilson is an excellent orthopedic oncologist (he discovered the cancer and basically saved my life). Dr. Raja Mudad is an excellent oncologist, even though he is not a sarcoma specialist — I was told that Houston's MD Anderson Cancer Center is an excellent place as well. If you are in Philly — Penn Orthopedics and Penn Oncology (Dr. Lackman and Dr. Staddon/Dr. Hartner respectively) is a great sarcoma institute. If you are in Los Angeles — UCLA is great and I would not go to anybody other than Dr. Chawla (he is very aggressive, but he is an innovator and is extremely knowledgeable and has a great bedside (or seatside) manner. I still have a long road ahead of me. I am not out of the woods, I never will be. Last month my doctors viewed my most recent CT scan and found a calcification in my muscle in the right pelvis. I had to have a needle biopsy and fortunately it came up negative for being a tumor. There is a possibility that it is a tumor, only time will tell, but it is more likely that it is part of the healing process. I am going to have to live with this for the rest of my life…so I tell myself to live it up and value every day.
If anybody has any questions about my experience (or wants advice, or just a friendly voice who has been "through the fire" to talk to) please feel free to contact me at email@example.com

According to Mike's lists so far, SEVEN WONDERS is the second most popular CINERAMA film after THIS IS CINERAMA, measured by total weeks played.
I have heard that IMAX is thinking about differentiating between the various flavors of IMAX. Some of the names they are considering are:
IMAX Grand
Imax Traditional
The Original IMAX Experience
IMAX Digital
The current multiplex installations are fine for what they are, but they pale in comparison to original IMAX on a 60' by 80' screen!
This theatre will be adding a Digital IMAX unit in theater 12 in time for the September opening of CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS. This is one of the 4 large theatres directly off the lobby. I was told the screen would be slightly larger than the screen at AMC EASTON 30.
"One of these things is not like the other,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you guess which thing is not like the other,
Before I finish my song."
Sure is one BIG surprise in this list!
The current PALACE theatre is located at 40 W. Broad street, so this theater would have been approximately at that location.
It is possible that this theatre was closed in anticipation of the construction of the AIU Citadel (Now Leveque Tower) at this location. That building opened in 1927 after some delays in construction.
One of my favorite film shots of all time is at the end of BATMAN where BATMAN stands on top of a building looking out onto the BAT Signal. I pulled that shot off the DVD and I use it as the wallpaper on my main monitor.
In the movie BATMAN, who is crazier…the Joker or Batman?
BATMAN RETURNS marked the beginning of the end of large scale 70mm releases. With BATMAN RETURNS came Dolby Digital, putting high quality 5.1 sound on 35mm film. Since many of the producers released in 70mm primarily for the sound, this gave them a way to get great sound at a much lower cost per print. JURASSIC PARK with DTS came along and really delivered the knock out blow.
When this theatre was running 3-strip CINERAMA, was it using 1 booth or 3 separate booths.?
The South Drive-In is still open as of the summer of 2009.
Drove by there recently, and that land is still not developed.
Installed 2 Digital Cinema units in May, 2009. Both capable of showing 3-D.
Arnold was involved and donated an Austrian Army tank, which was stored west of the main shopping area. I believe the tank was donated to Mott's Military Museum in Groveport, OH, just SE of metro Columbus.
So far, Mike has listed 74 theatres, which include 3 that only played THRILLARAMA and one that played 2 KINOPANORAMA pictures.
Of the theatres given so far, no theatre played all 24 CINERAMA films (Including THIS IS CINERAMA (70mm)). The IMPERIAL in Montreal played 23 of the films. That theatre also played the most "CINERAMA WEEKS" (weeks playing CINERAMA pictures) with 775.
So, it looks like things are about ½ way done. There are going to be some tough ones yet to go, though.
Were they running a 70mm print of POSEIDON?
Cinemark bought 4 theatres from Muvico on 3/18/09 so Muvico can avoid bankruptcy. These include the Paradise 24 in Davie, Palace 20 in Boca Raton, Boynton Beach 14 (All in Florida) and the Egyptian in Maryland. Cinemark took over officially on 3/19/09. All Muvico passes and programs are supposed to continue until the end of May, 2009, and employees were offered positions with the new company. (All information from the Miami Herald)
I did some newspaper research on this theatre some years ago. The newspaper ads definitely said NEW FALLS.
The best website on the history of Widescreen films is Martin Hart's Widescreen Museum (www.widescreenmuseum.com) It has information on every widescreen system. If you go there, say "Hi" to the Usherettes for me!
OKLAHOMA was a Todd-AO film produced by Michael Todd. His goal was to create a Cinerama type image with only one projector at a time. OKLAHOMA was the first TODD-AO feature. CINERAMA at that time used 3 projectors (and a separate sound unit). CINERAMA theatres could not show TODD-AO and TODD-AO theatres could not show CINERAMA films at that time.
I'm not aware of Century building any domes in Oklahoma.
Lynne, Mike's list includes 3-strip and 70mm films released with the CINERAMA logo included on the film and in advertising. GONE WITH THE WIND was an MGM release, and the CINERAMA logo was never a part of that release. I realize that this is a very fine distinction, but it is an important one. There actually was almost no difference echnically between the later CINERAMA films and other 70mm Roadshow releases.
Can anyone pin down a better address for this theatre? From Google Earth, I think I have it located at about 8036 Reading Road, but I can not be certain. Does anyone have the exact location?
According to the County records, the theatre was originally owned by Leo Yassenoff, who owned a number of theatres. The original date was April, 1967. The title passed to his foundation in 1974 and moved to the Columbus Jewish Foundation in 1996. It passed through a number of owners until it was given to the city in 2008 by Syed and Tabinda Rehman.
I lived about a block away from this theatre. (House is gone now…just a vacant lot.) The Drug Store was owned by Bernie Siegel, a pharmacist. It had a lunch counter and all the basic pharmacy stuff. Livingston Enterprises was the name of the store next to the theatre. It was a strange place that sold boats and other such things. Don't know why they sold boats in such a landlocked place! There was also a radio-tv repair shop inside that we used for all of our TV work…back when they actually repaired TV's.
There was a long empty area between the front doors and the doors of the theatre. There were a couple of display cases so the drugstore and Livingston Enterprises could show some wares. They only used the right door to the theatre to take tickets. The manager's office was to the left of the theatre doors. It was always filled with papers and posters.
They usually shut down for the season in September or very early October.
In July, 1965, RKO sub-leased the GRAND to Trans-Beacon Theatres. In ads, the theatre was listed as both a Beacon theatre and a Trans-Beacon theatre.
Contrary to information above, the theatre closed on May 13, 1969 following the run of ICE STATION ZEBRA and was destroyed by fire on January 8, 1970. The 3-strip presentation were from 11/3/60 until 2/11/64. (The previous poster reversed some digits). This information confirmed through Columbus Dispatch microfilm records.

Familial Alzheimer's disease may provide biomarker model
Examination of people at risk for the rare familial form of AD may provide clues to how the disease develops in others—years before clinical symptoms appear, according to a recent study. The clues are levels of certain proteins found in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), biomarkers that might be used to diagnose AD in its earliest preclinical stage.
The research team, led by scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, examined blood and CSF samples from 21 adults under age 50, most of whom had no symptoms of AD but were related to people with familial AD, a genetically inherited form of the disease. One of their biomarkers, elevated levels of plasma Aß42 (a type of beta-amyloid protein), also has been found in people with late-onset AD.
The results confirmed and amplified what previous studies have shown: Pre-symptomatic people with the familial-AD mutation had higher levels of plasma Aß42, which declined as the disease progressed, as well as higher plasma Aß42/Aß40 ratios, than those in people without the mutation. People with the mutation had lower CSF Aß42/Aß40 ratios and higher levels of CSF tau and p-tau181 than people who did not carry the mutation. There was no significant difference between the two groups in plasma F2-isoprostane levels.

Valet pilgrim parking for Makkah Umrah rush-hour
Parking multi-storey at the Holy Sites: that's what happens when you replace camels by motor vehicles.
As pilgrims flock to Makkah to perform Umrah during the peak season of Ramadan, the holy city is struggling to accommodate tens of thousands of vehicles coming from various regions of the Kingdom as well as from neighboring GCC states on a daily basis.
When I performed Umrah on the 10th day of Ramadan this year, I noticed a new traffic system where vehicles coming from Jeddah were being directed to the parking area near the Shumaisy checkpoint.
There are shuttle services or taxis to take pilgrims and visitors from this parking area to the Grand Mosque.
There are also other similar parking areas around the holy city for those who enter Makkah through the east, west and southern entry points to ease traffic jams inside the central Haram area, which is already overcrowded with the huge number of vehicles used by Makkawis, and is not in a position to accommodate any more from outside.
The new traffic system may be a temporary solution theoretically for easing traffic congestion within the central Haram area. But practically, there are inconveniences and difficulties for those coming to Makkah as they have been forced to leave their vehicles at the parking area and then take another vehicle to reach the Grand Mosque.
It is easier for everybody when they are going to Haram. But the difficulties begin when pilgrims start to return.
It is hard to find vehicles that take them back to the parking areas. If they are lucky to find one, at times they are forced to shell out up to SR100 for the short trip. There is no mechanism to rein in those who levy unreasonable charges.
There are neither any guidelines for determining fares nor monitoring agencies to take measures against those who charge exorbitantly.
There is another problem faced by those pilgrims who come from outside Makkah, especially those from neighboring countries by land.
Most of them use their private vehicles to take their families to Makkah to spend a few days of the holy month in the vicinity of the Grand Mosque. They also take necessary items and personal belongings that they need during their stay at hotels in the central Haram area.
Therefore, they face difficulties coming and going after they park in the parking lots away from the central Haram area. Many of these pilgrims were seen pleading with officials in charge of the parking areas to allow them to take their vehicles to the areas close to their accommodation.
Some Umrah pilgrims from Jeddah have started taking the old Makkah-Jeddah road to avoid parking at the area near Shumaisy and reach the central Haram area directly avoiding traffic police.
We have to find working solutions to address this problem. One solution could be creating a huge parking lot within the borders of the central Haram area itself. This parking lot should not be more than two or three kilometers from the Grand Mosque.
Another solution is to develop the existing parking areas in Kuday and Rusaifa. Instead of expanding the parking area, we can take advantage of multistory parking complexes.
When constructing such parking facilities, heavy vehicles could be parked on the ground floor while the upper floors can be reserved for light vehicles. Through introducing such a system, these parking areas can accommodate considerably more vehicles than existing parking facilities.
What is preventing us from implementing such projects that contribute substantially in easing the current heavy traffic pressure on the central Haram area and help accommodate a large number of vehicles carrying pilgrims?
The traffic congestion still remains an irremediable problem for Makkah. Every year, the holy city faces the same problem during peak seasons.
Makkah has been facing a shortage of parking areas for several years despite relentless efforts to find solutions. The problem has further worsened with an increase of pilgrims and visitors year after year. There have been several studies and researches to address this issue but the proposals are yet to be put into action.
As a result, the problem still remains and is making the task of policemen to facilitate a smooth flow of traffic much harder. They deserve praise for working hard to ease traffic congestion and serve the pilgrims and visitors to the city in the best possible manner during rush hours, especially during the holy month.

Feb. 15, 2010
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- The Tennessee Volunteers took the doubles point in lightning-quick fashion Monday but could not translate that to singles success in the finals of the ITA National Team Indoor Championship.
The Vols forced three singles matches to three sets but fell 4-1 to three-time defending champion Virginia at the Boar's Head Sports Club.
"I thought we played great doubles against Virginia, but we just couldn't carry the momentum into singles," junior Boris Conkic said. "We lost a lot of first sets, and that really hurt us.
"We couldn't really come back, but I trust this team. I know we'll be back, and we'll play better next time in these kinds of situations."
Senior Davey Sandgren and junior John-Patrick Smith delivered their most lopsided victory of the tournament. The seventh-ranked Tennessee duo defeated Michael Shabaz and Drew Courtney 8-1 to earn their 11th consecutive victory and 21st of the season.
Conkic and freshman Rhyne Williams clinched the point with an equally fast 8-2 win at No. 2 over Jarmere Jenkins and Houston Barrick, and Tennessee (10-1) took a 1-0 lead.
The tide turned almost as soon as the teams returned for singles. Virginia jumped out to an early lead on almost every court.
Conkic briefly led 4-1 in the first set at No. 2 against Sanam Singh, but he and four other Vols lost their first set, giving Virginia the momentum, especially with the home crowd backing them.
Williams was the only Vol to win his first set, taking a 7-5 lead over 16th-ranked Jenkins on court three.
"We had a small window of opportunity in singles to really take the crowd out of the match, and we did not seize that opportunity," Tennessee head coach Sam Winterbotham said. "We really needed to play well to do that, and to Virginia's credit, they played like their backs were against the wall. They knew the start would be critical to them.
Then Virginia, which has ranked players at all six positions, began to collect points. No. 58 Barrick defeated junior Matteo Fago 6-2, 6-4 on court five. Virginia went ahead 2-1 when Davey Sandgren, playing singles for the first time in the tournament, lost 6-2, 7-5 to No. 28 Lee Singer on court six.
Smith had defeated No. 3 Shabaz in straight sets during the fall, but Shabaz returned the favor Monday by winning 6-4, 6-4 at the No. 1 position. Virginia took a 3-1 lead with Shabaz' victory, and suddenly, the Vols were required to win the final three singles matches to comeback.
Conkic had lost the first set and trailed the second 3-0, but he rallied back to win the second set against Singh 7-5. Jenkins forced a third set with Williams on court 3 when the match ended on court 4.
No. 31 Courtney clinched the Virginia win with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 win over Tennys Sandgren.
"We needed to win more first sets," Winterbotham said. "After we did lose the first set, we just went down too quickly in the second sets on a couple of courts. That kills your chances to really give people like Boris time to turn the match around on their courts."
The Vols return to action Sunday when they travel to Winston-Salem, N.C., to face Wake Forest at 1 p.m.
1. #3 Michael Shabaz, UVa, def. #2 John-Patrick Smith, UT, 6-4, 6-4
2. #68 Boris Conkic, UT, vs. #12 Sanam Singh, UVa, 4-6, 7-5 0-0 DNF

Have you been guilty of postponing pleasure because your surroundings had to be perfect? Perhaps you've delayed having guests over or put off quality time because ignoring tasks and clutter is too difficult.
My early influences regarding domestic bliss were undeniably shaped by Leave to Beaver and Father Knows Best. My family home bore no resemblance to this television ideal. And, although most of my friend's homes were like mine, I had a neighbor whose table was always impeccably preset with colorful linen napkins, place mats, and egg cups at every breakfast setting.
I adore tablescapes, home decor, and well ordered space. It is calming to enjoy rooms that are visually appealing. Nonetheless, I've learned that living is more important than perfection. We loose precious moments simply because we cannot overlook what our friends are willing to or what we should.
I like how Rachel at Small Notebook sums it up: "If you organize to perfection, then you're not organizing to make your life better, you're living your life to organize, and nobody needs that." She makes the distinction between magazine-perfect versus how quickly we can put our hands on something.
I'll let you know that my house is not perfect today and yet I plan to set up an oasis in the midst of my chores and business calls to enjoy a "me" moment. I hope you do that, too.

hello jeep garage i'm new and have a wk2 srt8 bought the borla atak axle back just waiting to have it installed, does anyone know the length of the original suit case muffler? want to replace it w/more performance mufflers (louder) , either the aero turbine or borla xr1 round style anyone please help?
Re: exhaust
I've been looking into the swap. The factory piping is 2.75" I believe. Borla
Doesn't offer a 2.75" muffler in/out. Gonna have to go with a 3".
Sent from my iPhone 4S
Re: exhaust
thanks i was planning on going 3" just wondering what size case muffler i would need
Re: exhaust
I was gonna measure mine last time it was on a lift but never did since I wouldn't have gotten to it for a while since I'm out of town on business for a while. If you find anything post up about it. I've emailed borla and talked with them about it. They recommended the 3" muffler. I'm wondering if I could get the mufflers off a WK1 SRT8 Borla S exhaust and swap them in. Not sure yet. I almost bought a cut out set to try it, but didn't. The WK2 muffler was a good size when I was looking at it from under the lift.

Agriculture ministry forecasts record harvest this year
Ninth bumper harvest in a row will help ease inflation and stabilise global prices amid shortages in Europe and the US, experts say
Food production in China will rise for a ninth consecutive year, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, amid global food price uncertainties due to falling cereal production in the US and parts of Europe.
The ministry said on Tuesday that total food output this year would reach a new high after eight years of consecutive growth, with more than 80 per cent of autumn crops having been harvested so far.
Increased subsidies to farmers, better disease control and disaster relief contributed to a bumper autumn harvest, which makes up of 70 per cent of the whole year's food production, the ministry stated on its website.
China's annual statistics for food production includes a summer harvest, which saw a 2.8 per cent increase to nearly 130 million tonnes this summer, and an autumn harvest, whose figures are usually released in early December.
Though typhoons and floods affected the harvest in parts of the country, droughts, which are most damaging to crops, lasted shorter and their influence was smaller than usual, the ministry said.
Official statistics suggest that food production has been rising steadily, from 469 million tonnes in 2004 to 571 million tonnes last year. It was unusual for food production to increase nine years in a row, experts said.
According to Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences' Rural Development Institute, the typical cycle for food production in China was three years of rising yields, followed by three years of falling yields, then a stable harvest the year after that.
Favourable prospects for food production in China will help stabilise global prices driven by decreased yields in parts of Europe and the US because of severe droughts earlier this year, analysts said.
Ma Wenfeng, an analyst at Beijing Orient Agribusiness Consultants, said, "though China does not export much grain to the world market, a bumper harvest means less possibility for it to import from elsewhere of the world, which will help cool off global prices."
"As the largest food consumer, once China needs to import, it needs a great deal. And this will exert a big influence to the global market," Ma said.
Li said without increased food output, prices in the Chinese market are likely to surge amid expectations for a reduced global food production.
"In this sense, growth in food production helps to control inflation," he added.
Earlier this month, the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation lowered its forecast for world cereal production this year to 2,286 million tonnes from its September forecast as corn and wheat production in central and southeastern Europe and the US were severely reduced because of prolonged dry conditions. The latest forecast would be 2.6 per cent down from the previous year's record production.
Beijing has put agriculture at the top of its agenda in recent years as it vows to produce 95 per cent of China's food to avoid reliance on the international market. Last year, the central government spent more than 1 trillion yuan (HK$1.23 trillion) on agriculture and rural issues.

Black rights, women's rights, I am all for them, we are all created equal right? But Gay rights, not so much. They cross a moral line in the sand. I could care less what they do behind closed doors, I am more liberal in that thinking to that level. But bring it up to a full civil rights / legality and equality issue and I disagree.
This heads down a path followed in many old cultures, the next thing will be the open acceptance of pedophilia. Don't believe me? Say "no way that is just too far of a morale leap"? Check your history for Africa, Asia, Early Americas, Western Europe, etc. It happened over and over and over.
First is open same sex relations, followed closely by having young boy toys between the ages of 10 and 14.
It was said earlier the younger generations will be asking us old folks about the days when gays were not allowed to marry. I say they will be asking us to tell them when people had morals and sleeping with little boys got you throw in jail where you got to experience all the buttsecks you could handle.
