Outdoor Movies 2016 – It's that time of year again!
Outdoor movies are coming back to the D.C. metropolitan area this summer! There are several dates and locations these movies are being offered, so we thought we would share them with you so that you can enjoy them as much as we do.
After a long day at work, we love to spend the rest of the day outside, enjoying the sun and fresh air. Outdoor movies are a perfect way to do this! All you need is a picnic blanket, snacks, and a few close friends and family. Movies range from the new hits, recently graduated from the ever-expensive theaters, all the way to the oldies that make you reminisce on the good ol' days.

Smithsonian Folklife Festival 2016 – Outdoors in D.C.
The largest annual cultural event in the U.S. capital is back: Smithsonian Folklife Festival! Taking place outdoors on the National Mall only five stops from our office, you can enjoy the heart of Washington, D.C., while learning about international and national cultures in a whole new light. Having been to this event myself, I can guarantee that it is filled with a diverse group of people, activities, and foods, making it well worth your time. The event is free to the public and features activities and foods from two distinct cultural presentations: Basque: Innovation by Culture and Sounds of California.
Closest stop via metro is L'Enfant Plaza on the Yellow Line
June 29th – July 4th and July 7th – 10th
11am – 5pm
Special events begin at 6:30pm
What To Expect
Started in 1967, this festival highlights cultural traditions and practices of the featured areas, with hands-on demonstrations that make you feel like you're almost there! The goal of the festival is to present various regions, near and far, to the people of the greater Washington, D.C. area, increasing awareness of diversity beyond the hustle and bustle of the city. With musicians, artists, cooks, craft-makers, storytellers, and more, you are sure to learn plenty of things and immerse yourself into a whole new world! To help you out, we've provided some information on the two cultures featured this year.
Basque: Innovation by Culture
The Basque country spans Northern Spain and southwestern France, bordering the beautiful Pyrenees mountains. They were among the first European explorers to discover and impact the Western hemisphere, influencing regions in Idaho, Scotland, Mexico, Argentina, and more. The people of this region are known for their strong cultural preservation and practice, their pride felt throughout their community. However, the Basque look outward and are progressive in their search for sustainability across borders, making them economically innovative. They were on the forefront of the Industrial Revolution with the discovery of iron in their mountains, and now focus much of their resources on sustainable energy and engineering.
The festival will feature musicians, dancers, boat-makers, cooks, and other members of the region, sure to provide you with insight into their way of life across the Atlantic Ocean.
Sounds of California
Although it may seem familiar and not too far away, California is home to a constantly shifting culture, influenced strongly by Latin American communities and traditions. Bordering the Pacific Ocean, the state spans a large portion of the West Coast, creating ample land for incoming populations. With the greatest amount of diversity than any other U.S. state, and home to the largest Native American population, California is comprised of millions of individuals who migrated to the area to seek identity. One in four immigrants live in the state, making it on the forefront of one of the most heated debates in the country.
The festival will feature concerts and activities that provide a glimpse into musical culture and the dynamic shift of identities in the state. These artists tie their traditions from their original homelands into the customs of California, bridging together entirely distinct regions.
The cultures and traditions are sure to make you feel as though you're in another state or country, so think of it as a stay-cation! We hope you can make it to this spectacular festival and enjoy it just as much as we have in the past.

Why JetBlue Ditched a Business Selling Something Everyone WantsBy
The live satellite television on JetBlue's flights has long been a point of pride and distinction for the airline. Few passengers knew that JetBlue Airways owned the company, LiveTV, that made it possible to watch Desperate Housewives at 30,000 feet, and now the subsidiary is installing a new generation of fast Internet access for airlines around the world.
JetBlue sold LiveTV to the French aerospace company Thales on Thursday for $400 million, a roughly fivefold return on what it paid for the company 12 years ago. The business of in-flight entertainment was a bit too far afield from running an airline, and JetBlue was planning to invest $75 million in the unit this year—money it certainly wanted to spend elsewhere.
The change in ownership could also bring a boost to LiveTV. Many airlines would never buy the service from JetBlue, "because you're kind of subsidizing your competitor," says Cowen Group analyst Helane Becker. Under Thales, LiveTV will continue to equip and service JetBlue's fleet, according to JetBlue spokesman Morgan Johnston. "It's not core to our business," he says, and will be "better provisioned" under a new owner. The airline has said for more than two years that it was planning to divest the business.
Still, it's worth wondering if the price is low considering that LiveTV's sales may reach $150 million this year, as Becker wrote today in a client note. The unit had revenue of $72 million last year and $81 million in 2012. Becker predicts JetBlue will use the sale cash to fund its new airplane deliveries.
LiveTV, which is based in Melbourne, Fla., has installed its television product on airlines including United, WestJet, Frontier, Alitalia, and Azul, the Brazilian carrier run by former JetBlue Chief Executive Officer and founder David Neeleman. United and JetBlue are also using the company's Wi-Fi service. LiveTV has installed its equipment on 461 airplanes as of Dec. 31. It has firm orders for 196 more aircraft through 2015.
JetBlue shares rose 2.5 percent on the news, to $8.97, in trading on Thursday. The stock is up 5 percent this year.

Three best in bold:
Longrain Melbourne: had lunch there last week. Amazing Thai food, just spectacular.
Vue de Monde: the best in this list, but the bill will make you wished you ordered everyone a $100 steak at Rockpool.
Ezard: nice, nothing special.
PM24: sounds like a grade of dust particle.
Il Solito Posto: lovely place, but possibly a bit noisy for a business lunch involving six people.
Taxi Dining Room: one of Melbourne's finest. While Smarm may know that if you turn the chemical structure of lignocaine on it side, it looks like a man with a small erection, he knows nothing about restaurants.
Punch Lane: again, nice for lunch with friends, but nothing special.

Daily Buffet-Style Fitness Packages Let You Try Out Various Activities
A new business model in the exercise industry creates packages of fun fitness experiences, offering consumers a break from strict schedules and activity monotony.
Fitness Buffet is a Singaporean venture that incorporates the usability of Groupon into fun and unique exercise classes. Founder Callum Liang and his team find and gather sports and fitness classes and events and allow users to try them for free or at a low cost. The company creates unique packages that offer a variety of different classes that users can try. The packages, some costing around $99, are valued at more than $1,000 and definitely give users the freedom to try many different forms of exercise ranging from Muay Tai boxing to specialty health consultations. On its website, beginners and experts alike can search for and subscribe to these daily deals.
Laing created this platform as an alternative to the boring old gym routine. He invests time and effort into finding smaller businesses that offer a more personal and fun approach to exercise:
I knew a few people running fitness classes, but they struggled to compete against big gyms and their marketing budgets. The real irony is that the smaller organisations are the most passionate and keen to deliver value, yet most consumers will just go with the schedules that run at the large gyms.
The business model is an interesting, more tailored approach to the popular daily deal website. Through packaging and more varieties, Fitness Buffet caters to an audience that is more health-conscious but also overwhelmed by the amount of choices they have today. Laing summarizes the business model in one simple sentence:
If you have fun and meet people, fitness is just a bonus, then there's really no need for motivation at all.

An estimated 5.3 million Americans — about 2 percent of the U.S. population — currently have a long-term or lifelong need for help with everyday activities due to traumatic brain injury (TBI). (1) Many believe this number to be low as it only takes into account the number of reported injuries to hospital emergency rooms and by health care professionals. We've compiled the top 9 1/2 things to know about traumatic brain injury, it would have been 10 but the last 1/2 was left off because memory is often affected by traumatic brain injury.
1. A traumatic brain injury is a blow or jolt to the head or a penetrating head injury that disrupts the function of the brain. You do not need to lose consciousness to sustain a concussion.
2. 1.7 million people sustain a TBI each year in the United States. By the numbers, every American has more than a 1:300 chance of sustaining a traumatic brain injury each year. (2)
3. The three groups at highest risk for traumatic brain injury are children (0-4 year olds), teenagers (15-19 year olds), and adults (65 and older). (2)
4. Estimates peg the number of sports-related traumatic brain injuries as high as 3.8 million per year. (2)
5. Using a seatbelt and wearing a helmet are the best ways to prevent a TBI.
6. Males are almost twice as likely as females to sustain a TBI.
7. A concussion is a mild brain injury. The consequences of multiple concussions can be far more dangerous than those of a first TBI. (3)
8. The area most often injured are the frontal lobes that control thinking and emotional regulation.
9. A blow to one part of the brain can cause damage throughout.
9 1/2. Most people do make a good recovery from TBI.

Aderal for my TBI (in a coma 5.5 weeks Glasgow √3) was very harmful!!!
I had a TMI when I was 9 months old, I am 33 now. After a traumatic car accident they discovered I have parietal lobe encephalomalacia I have no idea how long its been there. I have been on antidepressants for a good 10 yrs of my life, I feel like its just been a cover up for what is really going on because they never really helped. I cant focus and I am tired all the time. Its like a my eyes just need to rest for a good 10 or 30 minutes mid day. I have to lie down otherwise I have brain-fog that just wont go away making it so hard to focus and function. I look at other people who are able to focus and get their tasks completed and I wonder how they do it. It makes me feel depressed. It feels like trying to focus when your just so tired you cant even think straight. That's how I feel on a normal basis even if I just woke up 2hrs ago. It has gotten worse over the last few years because the brain-fog wasn't as often during the day and these headaches that just feel so strange. They feel like a migraine but its more like my head as an electrical panel and its firing signals around my whole head. They can last for days, most times taking a potassium and bromelin supplement helps, not any NSAIDS.
My psychiatrist finally gave me adderall which helps so much. I still get the brain-fog but its not as bad. I am only taking 30mg a day. I still have bad days but overall I can actually think and do. There isn't a cure for encephalomalacia and many would actually not understand. I can imagine most people just saying I'm tired all the time too. Its not something a cup of coffee can change, if anything caffeine can make it worse. I am pretty successful in my life, I am motivated to want better for myself. Whatever I focus on, I can complete though I usually am missing something. Adderall helped me a lot. I am not a med pusher and honestly I know its not good for you but neither is feeling like your mind is too tired to do anything ALL THE TIME. Its not depression, depression can be secondary but its not the primary source of this particular problem. You have to want to feel better too and your still going to have bad days.
To the person that has tbi since the age of 13. Have you tried adderal. My husband has 40% of his front lobes are dead. He was a couch potato. Watched TV, slept and that was it. His Psych gave him 60 mg of Adderal and brought him back to wanting to do things. I was completely surprised because I thought he would be on that couch forever.
I got a TBI at the age of 5 and again at the age of 13. I was diagnosed with Encephalomalacia with Gliosis at the age of 38. I am now 40. I live as a 'shell' also, and my parents just don't understand. They get angry with me for being a burden. Tell me to get a job, and although I try desperately, the employers know there just isn't something right with me and turn me down. As far as no motivation, its the neurons we are talking about here, they are dying or have died, medications just make me tired and gain weight, both cons. I spend my life trying to please people. Life is miserable and I have been deserted of all my friends as well. Lonely, bored, miserable, and crippled on the inside. Don't judge shoes you never walked in. This is one pair I wish I could return and had never tried on.👠
My son was in a MVA just before the start of his senior year of high school. He was in a coma but came out of it. Over 40% of his brain is now scar tissue including both front lobes. It is now 8 years later and he is functioning but as a shell. He is easily manipulated by others and lost all of his former friends. He basically exists. Trying to motivate him or reason with him can sometimes be impossible. The one characteristic he still has is his love and kindness. It is sad that we haven't come further with treatment or therapy. I cannot find anyone in my area willing to take on his complicated case.
Anxiety and depression I struggle with every day = get so tired and emotional with out bursts of built up anger and panic attacks = some days can be good and some days very hard = cant handle stress or do my old job of which i studied for 4 years and worked for 20 = now at a job that I have been at for 5 years with a pay rise of 50 cents to make it $15 an hour = struggle to make ends meet as only work 6 hrs a day as beyond that I get to tied = have no dreams or hopes anymore as i feel so useless = can get easily confused = when tired or stressed my words start to come out all wrong and I start to stutter = would not wish a brain injury on anyone
I am currently at Greenville Memorial with my partner of 21 years, Father of Two of my children. Today is Sunday 9/27/ 2015 and we have been here now for a week and he has severe Brain Damage. I have never been so confused in my life so can anyone help me?
Sept 16th,the year 2000 changed my life forever,counting my blessings my 2 daughters had no long term injuries, I was in a coma a month in the hospital 3 months had out patient rehabilitation to walk & talk again, so thankful for my family & friends and the many prayers!I'm so thankful to be alive, has been a journey.
Valuable information. Fortunate me I discovered your web site by chance, and I am surprised why this coincidence didn't happened in advance! I bookmarked it.
JULY 20, 2008; I'm 36 now. It ruined my life and any future plans. So often do I wish I wouldn't have survived. Life is too hard
I suffered my TBI on September 25, 1993 when I was 31 years old. I was struck by a police car while I was on a sidewalk. I've discovered that I have to take 300mg of Effexor and 40mg of Adderall everyday or my depression will consume me. I also find myself getting kicked out of lounges all the time. I've discovered that it's because my mind will wander and it looks like I'm starring at people, it must upsetting I was thinking of getting a medic alert bracelet to warn people but I don't like wearing jewelry.
My mom got an heart attack a few years ago , she got to less oxygen and she got brian damage. She was in n coma for about 3 months but when she got out she was like a 6 year old child. Is it possible to recover from brian damage ?
This is def a mind opener. I sustained a concussion at 14 and was knocked out in a car accident then also 7 months later another accident where I hit the windshield at 130 pH impact car collision speed...I did not pass out then but def had stitches. I can relate to the emotional control issue at times and headaches....back aches and spine issues....thinking we'll my adhd got worse sitting for an exam is like Chinese without medication. Thanks so much
Its going on 30yrs for my Brain Injury. I'm learning how walk again & I'm having trouble with anxiety and depression. The therapists are saying I'm doing well but it's not fast enough, and that makes me sad!
I just read one of the facts that states: one injury to the can affect different parts of the brain. This helps me to understand the reason why I couldn't pinpoint my husband's injury to just one specific part of the brain. He has symptoms from different areas other than where they said his hemorrhagic stroke occurred which was in the basal ganglia. Thank You for the info!!
I work for a company in Wisconsin that provides group homes for adults with traumatic and acquired brain injuries.
I read a brave TBI survivor's comments comparing the aftermath of living everyday with the result of this injury to someone with cancer. The viewpoint was having cancer was so much worse. I ask why would cancer be considered "so much worse". Both are devastating and totally different but cancer being so much worse.....I disagree. That is a common problem with this invisible injury. It is time to bring world wide awareness about traumatic brain injury and how many issues come with this injury. It is time for medical professionals to become better educated themselves. It is time for every hospital in the United States to provide ANY form of support to the millions of people suffering brain injury. In Central Ohio there is no support or resources available. One would think THE Ohio State Medical Center would offer state of the art rehabilitation and have multiple support groups for survivors in different age categories and type of injury as well as support for families. Dodd Hall at OSU made sure my daughter could fry an egg and fix a meal and out the door she went. There is no real brain injury association in this state. Ohio get with the program.....get on board and help those suffering every single day of their lives. People are released from hospitals being told nothing regarding what their future could present with no assistance what so ever. Survivors and their families are left to educate themselves, learning as they go, no one to advocate on their behalf. It is criminal.
husband sustained tbi/stroke form a m/c accident back in '05, he is also paralyzed on the irght side, he has been home for 7 yrs, we've been married for almost 39 yrs..the only unplesantness ive had is dealing with our state govt and how tey treat him its the hardest thing to deal with..because as much as they say they help us..they do nothing but impede what my joe needs, fighting with them for almost 5 months to get him into a day program..and its been a battle ever since..have gone through a state rep, the governors office , and even a state senator..and we are still no closer to getting him the help he needs..the state puts more pressure on caregivers ..fighting the battle alone..and my joe still sits and "waits"..nobody helps..joe isnt the stressor..its state policy..
Problems with counting, reading comprehension, and organization are debilitating
My son has TBI and anoxia, he was in an accident. He has been in a vegetative state for 17 years and had to be move twice because they keep closing rehab hospitals for him to be in, the on he is in now is a nursing home with no activities and we were with him for 5 hours and no one came in to check if he had to be cleaned or not
Thank you for sharing some insight on this subject matter. Jared Goodman sustained his TBI on September the first, two-thousand and eleven. Him along with his passenger were dead on arrival (DOA), whereas paramedics (station 26) done a miraculous job in recessitating the two you men.After they were revived, extracted, and then rushed to one of Memphis Tennessee's best, furthermore only regional Medical center in this region, upon emergency triage Doctors conclude the passanger had a moderate TBI, during the time Jared had a severe TBI. There are some refutable fact about statistics you have gathered, although it may appear to be correct if the average, or mean property is applied. On your, "3. The three groups at highest risk for traumatic brain injury are children (0-4 year olds), teenagers (15-19 year olds), and adults (65 and older)." Well, they wear you adults when this occurred, which places them beyond the threshold of statement 3. Yes the passanger fell into that category, except Jared did not, since his age was 20 when this incident happened. Close, but not within the said constrains. Jared, who suffered the brunt of the accident, spent fourty day at the MED. Where the passanger only spent fifteen, give or take a day with either subjects. They were transferred by ambulance, Jared to Bentonville, Arkansas. The passanger was delivered to a facility in Tallahassee, Flordia. Where the two of them continued their therapy from separate locations.
One more comment- a patent spoke about an upcoming MRI for her son. It's critically important to know that MRI's can also be deceptive, in that typical MRI's show only 1/2 to 1/6 of the amount of damage shown by suseptibility weighted MRI's. The trauma to the brain is therefore at least twice to six times that shown in a typical MRI vs. the enhanced study. One has to wonder just how much additional damage will be found as imaging techniques improve.
Number five is almost certainly wrong, and correcting this information is critically important for many reasons, but most importantly I think is the fact that wearing a helmet can give the helmet wearer a false sense of security (and also fool caregivers into believing that if a helmet is worn, a TBI almost certainly didn't occur). Some very excellent and peer reviewed research has shown that even at moderate speeds, helmets do not-do not- prevent acceleration/deceleration TBI's. I'd be happy to supply the references to anyone interested. Bottom line is that motorcycling, for example, is unsafe whether helmeted or not (as are many other at speed activities). Our brains simply aren't adapted to the rapid deceleration a we experience in many impacts, and I believe very strongly people need to be aware of this. Thankfully, some helmet manufacturers are aware of this fact and are researching new helmet designs that may decrease the force the brain experiences during acceleration/deceleration episodes.
Thank you for at least some validation for my son who suffered a concussion snowboarding 3 months ago. It was a "party weekend" with a lot of drinking,etc no sleep, so initial headache was assumed to be attributed to hangover. a month later, got headache. Never had one before in his life. Finally went to ER and "migraine was diagnosed" Given two shots and script for imitrex, which he still feels "fried his brain" Getting palpitations, HA, flashes of light, shooting pains, photosensitivity, and a great deal of anger and depression because he thinks everyone thinks he is a "pussy". Now finally insisted on MRI and get results today. Hoping for some better news, but still scared to death. mom in limbo

For support there is now a site called trymunity.com
Why are there are these facts about what TBI is, signs and symptoms, etc., but nothing about where to get help? What I need to know is what to do about it, where to go for help. I am so frustrated. I have a brother who is in desperate need of help and I can't seem to find resources anywhere.
I am truly sorry that so many of you are out there! If any of you are near the Western NY area we should create a support group.
I bruised 75% of my brain in a head-on collision January 1, 1987. I am currently in school at Columbus State Community College, studying Construction Management. I am thankful for this information being available to me now, I\\\'ve gone through this without a supportgroup.
I was hit by a car when I was 5 while standing on a sidewalk at school. I was unconscious for a time and sustained other injuries. I did well after but then in my thirties a car hit me while I was coming down a hill and spun my car around. It took the doctors 3 years to diagnose my TBI. It started out with just extreme pain. Every time I think I've reached the highest level of pain, a new one comes on. I now also am having extreme memory problems. I can't remember words, what a show was about that I watched the day before or if I talked to somebody during the day. It's very frustrating, I have to take a lot of meds but I'm thankful at 45 to be alive and be married to a wonderful man and have a beautiful daughter. I am basically housebound but tell myself that there are people who are worse off than me. I just pray every day that something new isn't going to pop up!
I have been in four car \'accidents\' in the past two years. One the car flipped after hydroplaning, two the tire blew out and I just remember walking down the interstate with a broken nose (didn\'t know that at the time I was numb), three I can\'t even remember as well as four... in fact I was happy to find the insurance, tow truck number etc. in my wet pocket (in my jeans on the floor) after the last wreck. I can\'t remember anything anymore and it\'s frustrating me to exhaustion and causing huge problems in my relationship and have lost my job due to the after-effects. I had a huge swollen bump on the back of my head for about 2 months and now it\'s a dent in my skull. I have no insurance so obviously I don\'t matter. Anybody have a clue what I can do to help myself? I can\'t remember anything anymore.
My MTBI occurred on Friday the 13th, 11 years ago. NO JOKE. Thank goodness I was at work for a very large & prominent company, & was fortunate enough to recieve the very best of medical care. After months in a hospital with a nationall,y recognized head trauma unit, brain surgery for a resulting brain anurysm,4 more subdural hematomas due to my balance disorder, & resulting epilepsy, I still hit the floor every morning grateful to be alive. My last name is Faith, think thats a hint????? I take 13 meds every morning, am so tired of being fatigued, but think it is maybe time to see a shrink. Anyone have any input? I sure could use it. I have no social life, but do have a man that loves me like no other & am getting married soon. I am truly one lucky woman.......
I had a car accident when I was 34. I was paralyzed and in a coma for 30 days. I was not supposed to live. I do very well considering all the medications I have tried . I walked out of the hospital, (they said I'd never walk again) I still have alot of trouble. The weather seems to effect me severely. I cannot take temperatures above 75 degrees or so. I love the winter, but feel like s___ all summer. Anyone else like this. I stll have PCS and have lost my memory back to 10 or 11 years old. The hospital gave me an experimental drug for brain swelling and I say it worked. I do well most of the time....I have to wear shorts year round, not long sleeve shirts. Been that way since I woke up from the coma. Dont get me wrong, I am very grateful for how well I've done. They said I would never walk, I do very well, never be able to live alone, I do. I can drive only because I can tell when I'm having trouble, it always starts when I get up and I would never get in a car like that. Otherwise I dont go anywhere much, but I am grateful. '
My daughter suffers from a TBI...in Oct. 2010 she had a motorcycle wreck that left her with a sheared brain stem, frontal lobe, occipital lobe, cerebellum and small stroke in right hemisphere...needless to say the Dr.s never thought she would make it 8 hours...prayer, FAITH, hope, love and HARD work has shocked and awed many!! We are 9 months out and she can now walk holding my hand...the periphal vision they said she would never get back has improved drastically...her "10 second Tom" memory has now improved to a 12 hour memory! My advice is pray and have faith that what you ask for God will handle...the rehab centers we have been to told me I was going to have to except this was all she was going to be able to do...I didn't except it. She has also been visiting a Maximized Living Chiropractor who has been AMAZING!! Since these visits her balance is INCREDIBLE! Never give up HOPE! Our God is bigger than our problems! .
To the one who wrote on April 3, 2010. I am 31 and have epilepsy. I have had it since I was 8 years old. I have took medicine after medicine and still have seizures. I have also had brain surgeory which cleared most of my seizures up. My granny would say I would have them but she couldn't do anything about it. She would say my temperature was over 100, then I went for about 5 years and then started to have seizures from a medicine I was allergic to. I have had seizures ever since 1986. Doctors have changed my medicines about 4-5 times since was 8 years old. I have gone through school and still graduated with my class since all this happened. Even though I have graduated I am in this house just for people that are handicapped and have nerve problems. I feel that I could do something else and not feel retarted. I work with the seniors on two days of the week and the juniors 3 days. But I feel I have come quite a ways. The reason I say that, I graduated with the class I started with in 1982 even though I started to have seizures in 1986.
last year i was hit by a car and i had a very bad brain injery, but i am now back at school and i am almost back to my old self i am a very storng girl
Last month on july 29 I celebrated 19 years of recovery from a TBI to the front of my brain.Even now I have brand new problems that appear that were never there before.The most fun is the harassment I've recieved constantly from co-workers and management at my job.The wonderful United States Postal Service.I Guess no one ever explained respect and courtesy to them.
I had a TBI at the age of four. I thought it was done and over with. Wrong! It is now, thirty-nine years later. I now have epilepsy, in my twenties, I started getting numbness in my right extremities, along with a great deal of weakness. Now my right leg turns in and I have to walk sideways down the stairs. My reflexes are very abnormal. I have encephalomalacia on the right side of my brain due to my head injury. By all medical accounts I should not have survived the fall. I had thirteen skull fractures according to my medical record and had to have burr holes drilled to relieve the pressure and because of internal bleeding. I have a very difficult time with memory and learning new things. It has been that way all of my life, that I can remember. I never did remember my mother or anyone in my family, I just was told they are my family. I also have a hard time with aphasia. But I know if it had not been for God,I would not be here today, he is the one who decided it was not my time. I accept things the way they are, at leas I live to fight another battle! Yes, I have depression, anxiety and do see a psychiatrist also. But I also know that having pity upon yourself is a waste of time ad energy. Just remember that you are alive and do not feel sorry for yourself, everyone has challenges and we all have more in this life, but we are alive and not deceased!
With emotions out of control, a TBI patient could have many run-ins with the law. Our son was lasered repeatedly, had to go to court, was fined and had to do community service. To this day, he only remembers being jumped by the plainsclothed police and fighting back as any soldier is trained to do. This is a real problem and it's imperative that some understanding of TBI be brought to light so our legal system and police do not judge these individuals as common criminals.
is it possible that i have this after a bad motorbike accident in 1983 when my head was run over by an hgv although my consultant surgeon said no way!! I have to work all the time, i feel very depressed unless ni work, please let me know there is someone else out there !!
I am one of the 'deer in the headlights'. Emotional stress and/or at times the stress of daily life situations [including needed major renovations to our home and the mess we now have due to that] ... these things bring out the bi-polar depression, the memory problems, the speech [aphasia] problems, sometimes the physical problems [stroke-like symptoms of right-side weakness], etc.. Top that off with a recent dx of Generalized Inherited Early Sudden [Chronic] Onset Osteoarthritis [at age 53; now am 54]doesn't help matters either. Yes, I get through my daily life ... sometimes I have good days, sometimes they aren't the greatest. And sometimes I often wonder how I will get through a day. Add to that mix needing to find a second P/T job that I feel I could do on a daily basis [due to things becoming so expensive nowadays and not sure of getting from one pay to the next] without having a 'melt-down' either physically and/or mentally and you often wonder how to manage your day[s] without burning out from the TBI residue you now have to live with. Heaven help me too when I have anesthesia for even minor surgery! It takes months to get over the severe aphasia, etc.! I often wonder how people with major illnesses [ex: cancer] seem to get through them, yes with difficulties but still get through them, and it is so hard for me to get through a day. I feel guilty for feeling like I do when / getting to the point I do when there are those out there battling those worse things than what I have. Why is it so hard to deal with the problems of TBI when comparing it to cancer, etc.?
The tendency for as many as 80 to 90% of TBI survivors to believe they have fully recovered does not make it true. As the first comment asks, What is a "good recovery?" Many consider a good recovery to be an ability to return to the same activities as before the TBI/MTBI. What they fail to consider is the evidence that shows that even those who appear to have returned to the same state and functional abilities as before the TBI/MTBI, thorough testing will demonstrate that they have residual damage from the TBI/MTBI. Athletes are the best example of this. Many appear to recover fully only to begin noticing problems years after the injury. The least symptom of incomplete recovery is the sensitivity to a second injury, be it a very mild concussion or more serious injury. The more serious issue is the risk of cognitive or memory impairment during times of physiological stress and for some, even simple emotional stress. There is a sleeping monster lying in wait in the injured brains of TBI survivors. It can raise up and strike out at very inopportune moments, such as when there is a risk of imminent danger or a need to make a life critical decision on a moment's notice. Beware the 'deer in the headlights' as this monster strikes out.
I feel recovery is directly correlated to attitude. My husband had made a tremendous recovery from a TBI in 1992. He will never be "back to normal" however, he has an amazing attitude and quality of life. Endurance training (Long distance running, road biking and triathalons) have made a huge improvement in his processing and physical disabilities. I am so proud of how hard he has worked at getting a "good life" because most of us don't even try to improve our lives.
100% recovery may not be possible but we don't know if a person will get 65% of the way back or 99.9999% back. What's important is working hard and discovering all your post-TBI abilities. "Oh, my friend, it's not what they [TBI] take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left." — Hubert Humphrey Dr. Mark / @gotbrain
What is the definition of "a good recovery from TBI"? Does that mean 100% or less then that. Is there a 100% recovery for TBI ?
this is a very good article I love number 9 and if you have a TBI you will definately recover in time,its hard work but you will recover. I know Im almost there

Tri Tronics Pro 500 G2 Exp with 3 E-collars used four times. Collar is in perfect condition. Will also run three beeper collars from the hand held remote. Collar retails for 800 when adding the two extra receiver collars. This collar was new last season. $550.00. If you have any questions you can call us at 605-395-7799 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com
The Tri-Tronics Pro 500 G2 EXP is a smaller, lighter and improved version of the Tri-Tronics 500 Lite/LS/XLS Pro series collars which professional and serious amateur trainers have relied upon for years. This top of the line model combines all the features of the Pro 100 G2 EXP and Pro 200 G2 EXP series. The Pro 500 G2 EXP is an extremely versatile remote training collar that is right for any breed of dog and any type of training - from basic obedience to advanced field work. The Pro 500 G2 EXP gives you three levels of continuous stimulation and three levels of momentary stimulation - all instantly selectable from the transmitter. The Pro 500 G2 EXP has a toggle switch on the transmitter that allows you to quickly move between momentary and continuous stimulation. And of course, you can change variable intensity levels by adjusting the dial at the top of the transmitter so you can match any dog's temperament more quickly and easily. Built in audio tone with a separate button comes standard. A two-dog model is available. Click here for the Tri-Tronics Two-Dog Pro 500 G2 EXP which comes with two collars for training two dogs from one transmitter. Note: We use and recommend the Tri-Tronics Pro 100 G2 EXP and the Pro 500 G2 EXP models for "yard work" (obedience)training and any other training where low levels of continuous stimulation are used to reinforce previously taught commands. The Pro 100 G2 EXP and the Pro 500 G2 EXP models have a "low" and a "medium" button for continuous stimulation (as well as a "high" continuous stimulation button). The continuous stimulation produced by using the low and medium buttons on the Pro 100 G2 EXP and the Pro 500 G2 EXP is lower than the continuous stimulation levels on the Sport series, Classic 70 G2 EXP, Flyway Special G2 EXP, Upland Special G2 EXP, and Pro 200 G2 EXP. The low and medium continuous stimulation levels on the Pro 100 G2 EXP and Pro 500 G2 EXP are particularly useful with sensitive dogs/breeds.
Now with the new EXP feature, you can purchase the Pro 500 G2 EXP as a one dog unit and add a 2nd or 3rd dog at any time by purchasing extra collars. Upgrade when you need to control more than one dog at a time.

* The Pro 500 G2 has two black buttons for stimulation and a toggle switch that allows you to select between momentary and continuous modes
Tri-Tronics Pro 500 G2 EXP Range
Collar range up to 1 mile.
Maximum range is based on "line of sight." This means that to get the full range out of a system there should be nothing between the transmitter and the receiver and the terrain should be flat and open. This isn't going to happen in most places that we spend time with our dogs.
The range on all of the systems that we carry will come down from the maximum based on training conditions, including weather, terrain, and the presence of cover.
Range is something that too much will never hurt, but too little can be a problem.
The new G2 collars feature a slightly different kind of continuous stimulation that will increase the systems ability to reach maximum distance in heavy cover and difficult terrain situations. The Pulsating Continuous Stimulation on the G2 collars transforms the old style continuous stimulation from a single impulse to a rapid succession of pulses. Because this is a "broken" signal instead of a single transmission it does a better job of reaching the receiver at maximum distance.
The pulses are so rapid that it gives the feeling of the old style continuous stimulation but increases the transmitters ability to reach maximum distance.
In situations where maximum range is not required and a smaller transmitter profile will be more comfortable for you, take a look at the Tri- Tronics MMA antenna .
This tiny inch and a half long antenna gets you an amazing 60% of the regular range with a more convenient transmitter profile any time long range isn't critical.

Peter Davison has confirmed he will appear in the 'Doctor Who' 50th anniversary special.
The 62-year-old actor, who played the Fifth Doctor in the BBC sci-fi series from 1981 to 1984, admitted he is going to play a part in the one-off episode on November 23 and while he is looking forward to seeing it all come together, he is remaining tight-lipped about the specific details of his role.
He told BANG Showbiz: "I'm making an appearance somewhere over that period of time but I can't reveal in what.
"I can't reveal anything specific about it. I'm not allowed to.
"It is a big year for the show and we're all doing our bit for it. Trust me."
The episode will be one of Matt Smith's last appearances as the titular Time Lord, but Peter is excited about 55-year-old Peter Capaldi taking over the role from next year because he believes the 'Thick of It' star will bring some much-needed maturity to the part.
He added: "I think it's a great choice, I really think it's a brilliant choice. So many names have been banded about.
"When I heard who it was I just thought that's a great choice.
"He's a fantastic actor and he has that sort of sense of humour. He has an edge to him as well and I think it's nice to have a maturer Doctor.
"I grew up with mature Doctors so I think it's an excellent choice."
Peter would love to see one of his grandchildren appear as the Doctor one day following in the footsteps of him and his son-in-law David Tennant - who is married to Peter's daughter Georgia Moffett - but joked it might resemble the controversial North Korean dynasty, which is passed down from father to son.
He quipped: "'Doctor Who' is a bit like the North Korean dynasty, we're just going to pass it on down the line until one of us pops our clogs. It's all ours now - it's the Davison and Tennant dynasty."
However, Peter - who has been married to Elizabeth Morton since 2003 - admits he fears for the show's future and wouldn't be surprised if people got "tired" of watching the sci-fi series and bosses decided to take it off air.
He said: "There will get to a point where people get a bit tired of 'Doctor Who'. I don't know, maybe it will need a little rest. I'd love to see it carry on but you can never tell."

Oh you absolute morons. He is talking about a parody sketch video he did for it.

Headline fails to match the quote from Davison. He says "somewhere" and notes he can't say "in what". You're jumping to conclusions. Bad article.

In regards to the comment about people getting tired of it; Dr. Who has one thing going for it that Star Trek or other sci-fi shows didn't...and that's a strong female fan base. And as long as they keep rolling over companions and bringing back old characters now and then it will remain fresh. It's quite the enigma really, Dr. Who. Cheers to them!

I get the distinct feeling that Davison was trolling the interviewers. I wouldn't put it past him to do so.
by Xavier Lopez 13th Sep 2013 19:09
Finally, I'm excited! I was kind of annoyed at the idea that they were just going to ignore the past Doctors--but now it looks like I have something to look forward to!
by CGW 13th Sep 2013 23:25
As other commenters have noted, Davison didn't say he would be in the episode itself, as in the actual "The Day of the Doctor." BUT, at the risk of being too optimistic, I think he's still probably involved in a significant, and "official" way, whether that's the episode itself, some prequel or minisode or who knows what. For two reasons:
1) Davison has a close and good relationship with Moffet, so I don't think he'd do anything to try to screw him over. Dropping this teaser if his involvement was just something minor or just his own project would leave fans seriously disappointed come November, and I don't think he'd do that.
2) I can't think of many good reasons why he'd be under official orders not to talk if it was just some interview or panel appearance or something. If someone at the BBC is telling him to keep it a secret, it must be awesome enough to be worth keeping!
My bet is that we'll get a series of prequel minisodes leading up to the 50th, tying in to the past doctors somehow. It could be plenty of other things, but whatever it is I bet it will be substantial enough to be cool!

Star Trek has a huge female fan base - particularly since Benedict Cumberbatch appeared in it. That dragged over a heap of Cumberbabes, and now a lot of us are hooked. But seriously, even out of non-Cumberbabes, heaps of girls love sci-fi cults like Star Trek. I go to an all girls school, and let me tell you, there were plenty of people going to see the latest film more than once.

Tell Me Again. Why Do We Think Apple Will Make a TV Set?
A lot of analysts talk about Apple's plans to make a television — an actual TV set, not just a set-top box — but last week, Jefferies' Peter Misek did something most have been careful not to do.
Citing "increased confidence" that Apple's iTV is coming, he wrote into his published forecasts the revenue from its sales: 2 million units in the second half of 2012 and 10 million in 2013. He even factored in a "halo effect" for what he now believes will be called iPanel, whereby anybody who buys one will also

Chris Kelly scored his second goal of the playoffs and the Boston Bruins put offensive pressure on the Chicago Blackhawks to take a 1-0 lead in the first period of Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals on Monday night. Trailing 3-2 and needing a win to extend their season, the Bruins outshot the Blackhawks 12-6 as they continually came at goalie Corey Crawford. If necessary, a deciding Game 7 would be played in Chicago on Wednesday night. Each team got one of its best players back when Chicago captain Jonathan Toews and Boston alternate captain Patrice Bergeron returned to the lineup after leaving Game 5 with injuries on Saturday. The play that led to Kelly's goal began after a faceoff that rookie defenseman Torey Krug rushed in to tip toward a teammate. The puck went to Daniel Paille, standing about 40 feet on the left. He passed to Tyler Seguin, who caught the puck with his right glove in the slot and dropped it. Seguin then passed to Kelly, who scored his second goal of the playo...

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - The University of Tennessee women's tennis team closed out the fall portion of its schedule Sunday by winning four matches on the final day at the St. Mary's Tournament at the UT Varsity Courts in Knoxville, Tenn.
The Lady Vols began the day with a round of doubles against teams from Wake Forest University. Senior Zsófia Zubor and junior Rosalía Alda paired together in hopes for their second win of the tournament. The Tennessee tandem matched up against Wake's Sasha Kulikova and Emilee Malvehy in a contest that had to be decided in extra games.
Zubor and Alda saw their 3-0 lead go just as quickly as it came as Wake came charging back to take a 4-3 advantage. From there, the contest was a back-and-forth affair before it eventually settled into a 7-7 tie. The Lady Vols broke the Deacons serve to move into the lead and then didn't drop a point the rest of the way en route to a 9-7 match victory.
For the third straight day, junior Maria Sorbello combined with Middle Tennessee State's Yuiri Nomoto. The two battled Martina Pavalec and Katarina Reveche in a match that saw Sorbello and Nomoto have to come from behind. In the end, however, the comeback fell just short as Pavalec and Reveche claimed the win, 8-6.
The Orange and White returned for singles in the afternoon. Zubor won in straight sets, 6-0, 6-2, over East Tennessee State's Kelly Hotzhausen, while Sorbello and Alda would need three frames before they came away victorious.
Sorbello dropped her first set to Yevgeniya Stupak from ETSU, 4-6. The Mackay, Australia, native would not go away without a fight, however, claiming the second frame, 6-3, to force the match into a deciding third set. Stupak faltered late in the third, allowing Sorbello to make her move for the 7-5 win.
Alda lost her first set as well to Buccaneer Paula Jaime, by a score of 6-7 (4-0). The 5-11 junior bounced back to pick up a 7-5 win in set two, before carrying that momentum over for an easy, 6-2, triumph in the third for her second win of the tournament.
With the conclusion of Alda's match, the women's tennis team closed out its fall schedule. The Lady Vols will return to action on Jan. 16, 2010 at the Michigan Invitational in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Flight One
Maria Sorbello (UT) vs. Yevgeniya Stupak (ETSU) - 4-6, 6-3, 7-5
Flight Two Rosalía Alda (UT) def. Paula Jaime (ETSU) - 6-7 (4-0), 7-5, 6-2

Barry, Ill. • The byline of Dick Metcalf, one of the country's pre-eminent gun journalists, has gone missing. It has been removed from Guns & Ammo magazine, where his widely read column once ran on the back page. He no longer stars on a popular television show about firearms. Gun companies have stopped flying him around the world and sending him the latest weapons to review.
In late October, Metcalf wrote a column that the magazine titled "Let's Talk Limits," which debated gun laws.
"The fact is," wrote Metcalf, who has taught history at Cornell and Yale, "all constitutional rights are regulated, always have been, and need to be."

Napoleon Hill (October 26, 1883 – November 8, 1970) was an American author who was one of the earliest producers of the modern genre of personal-success literature. His most famous work, Think and Grow Rich, is one of the best-selling books of all time. Hill's works examined the power of personal beliefs, and the role they play in personal success. He became the advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt from 1933-36.

Had to repair a crack to the D-bracket on my EE-3 sustained a few months back and now I need to touch it up. Trying to figure out what colors would likely be a match for the bracket. Looks like a silver or gunmetal base and then misted with some darker color. Might just try silver and then flat black.
Thoughts? What have you used in the past?

Should the Bills Trade Up For Jadaveon Clowney? [ZAPPONE POLL]
The Buffalo Bills sit at No.9 in the first round of Thursday's NFL Draft but that might not be high enough in their own minds.
Reports from ProFootballTalk on Wednesday indicate that the Bills are working on possibly trading with the Houston Texans with the first pick so that they can move up. Presumably, they would be putting themselves in that spot to select South Carolina DE Jadaveon Clowney.
In the latest ESPN Mock Draft, the BIlls traded with the Texans and had to give them this year's No.9 and second-round pick, along with 2015's first and third round picks and their 2016 second-rounder.
Whoa. That's A LOT. The Bills wouldn't give up that much … would they?

Desquamative gingivitis
|Desquamative gingivitis
|Classification and external resources
Desquamative gingivitis (DG) is an erythematous (red), desquamatous (shedding) and ulcerated appearance of the gums.[1] It is a descriptive term and can be caused by several different disorders.[2]
Signs and symptoms[edit]
Desquamative gingivitis involves lesions of the free and attached gingiva. Unlike plaque-induced inflammation of the gums (normal marginal gingivitis), desquamative gingivitis extends beyond the marginal gingiva, involving the full width of the gingiva and sometimes the alveolar mucosa.[3] The term "full width gingivitis" usually refers to the oral lesions of orofacial granulomatosis however.[4] The color is another dissimilarity between typical marginal gingivitis and desquamative gingivitis, in the latter it is dusky red.[3] Plasma cell gingivitis is another form of gingivitis which affects both the attached and free gingiva.[1]
|This section is empty. You can help by adding to it. (April 2017)
Differential diagnosis[edit]
Desquamative gingivitis is a descriptive clinical term, not a diagnosis.[1] Dermatologic conditions cause about 75% of cases of desquamative gingivitis, and over 95% of the dermatologic cases are accounted for by either oral lichen planus or cicatricial pemphigoid.[1] The exact cause of desquamative gingivitis cannot be determined about a third of cases.[1]
- Oral lichen planus[1]
- Cicatricial pemphigoid[1] or less commonly bullous pemphigoid[1]
- Pemphigus vulgaris[1]
- Linear immunoglobulin A disease[1]
- Dermatitis herpetiformis[1]
- Lupus erythematosus[1]
- Chronic ulcerative stomatitis[1]
- Chronic bacterial, fungal, and viral infections[1]
- Reactions to medications, mouthwashes, and chewing gum[1]
Rare causes include:
- Crohn's disease[1]
- Sarcoidosis[1]
- Leukemia[1]
- factitious (self inflicted) lesions[1]
- Squamous cell carcinoma (can be mistaken for desquamative gingivitis)[1]
- Improving oral hygiene
- Minimising irritation of the lesions
- Specific therapies for the underlying disease (where available)
- Local or systemic immunosupressive or dapsone therapy (notably not corticosteroids)
This condition was first recognized and reported in 1884, but the term desquamative gingivits was not coined until 1932.[1]

Bozeman band Mud Pill Palace takes psychedelic punk and sends it on a trip through a curio shop. By that time it's wearing a pirate hat, carrying a surf board and reciting gypsy folktales in mumbled tones. Therein lies the primary charm of the group's debut album The Sophisticated Monster Show. This isn't psychedelic rock content to sit around in its mom's basement and do mushrooms. It wants to get out and see something.
Musically, the band tosses Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits and Nick Cave into the blender with elements of old world music and Americana. The result is a little messy, a little chaotic, but often quite memorable. Chunky electric guitar riffs do most of the work, moving from barroom stompers to surf rock instrumentals to touches of reggae in the space of a few songs. Considering the album's diverse musical palette, it's no surprise that it meanders thematically either, using everything from graveyards to the pirate-ridden high seas for its backdrops.
Some may read that as a lack of focus, but it sounds to me like an album that just can't sit still. Listeners who aren't careful might find themselves with a case of their own wanderlust by the final track.
