This is a gem of a campground, with very helpful and friendly owners. Interior roads are hard packed dirt, big rig access is good. Our site was a very spacious pull through grass site with full hook ups, of the 10 sites only two were 50amp, we had a picnic table, fire ring and plenty of space for our towed. Spectacular location along the Salmon River with views in all directions, several sites back directly onto the river, it was all very peaceful and quiet. The bathrooms and laundry were dated but clean. Very pet friendly with plenty of places to walk your pet. Wifi was good but there was no AT&T signal. No food stores close by, but there is a small mercantile that stocks the basics in Stanley about 20 miles away. Stanley is a wonderful little town, with a great visitor center, we left with an armful of great information on what to see and do. We highly recommend eating at 'Stanley Sluice Alehouse', it has an eclectic menu, and also the best food we have had for a long time. There is so much to see and do in this breathtaking area, scenic drives, ghost towns, wildlife, pristine rivers, the list is endless, but note some attractions close down after October 1st. We would stay here again, in fact we extended our stay here twice, hard to leave this great campground! - tobyjug

Lovely and peaceful RV park by the river. Horses and wildlife create a peaceful ranch atmosphere. Ann, our host, was very helpful! - CJtripping
Jun 2016 - $30.00
Although very open to sun & wind, this campground was very enjoyable. Sites are huge, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful. Nice stone firepits at each campsite. We backed up to the Salmon River and enjoyed watching and listening to birds (including osprey, bald eagle and yellow warbler) and the campground owners' horses. We loved the peace & quiet, as traffic is very light at night, and not all that heavy during the day. This campground is really "the middle of nowhere," and our cellphones did not work here (Verizon), but that was ok. Close by are ghost towns, mining history, tiny town museums, the Sawtooth Range (not visible from the campground but within 1/2 hour drive), and of course river-focused activities. Rafting is especially popular in spring; once the river calms down, fishing becomes big as well. Owners friendly and helpful; recommended places to eat within 15-20 minutes' drive too. The only drawback was the distance the bathrooms/showers were from the campsites (this place also has cabins to rent). - PokyRVer

Nice place to stop overnight and play some golf if you want to. Our site was pretty level and gravel. Wi-Fi was not real strong but we could use it. Nice view of some interesting rock formations. - Tschachers
Aug 2012 - $25.00
Nice area of central Idaho. Lots of outdoor stuff to do. The park is clean and has great views of the area. Verizon coverage is good on extended network. No 3G, but the park's internet works fine. The only negative here is the sites are not near level, side to side, so one side of your rig is jacked up quite a bit. Overall, a nice place to spend a week. - retiredfields

Scenery is nice, golf course is a bit rough. Overnight rate is a bit steep for what is offered. Check rates if coming during an event weekend. - gonzo444

Nice surrounding views and this park is convenient to the interesting visitor center across the street. There are virtually no 50 amp spots that are accessible to big rigs. OK for spending the night but park is beginning to show lack of maintenance. Restroom/shower was not inviting. If you stay, try the ice cream at the next door gas station. AT&T air card didn't work. - JK Travels
Sep 2011 - $27.00
Nice grassy sites and a well-kept park. Neighborhood views aren't great; but mountain views around the valley are nice. Only negative about this park is no Wi-Fi, and my air card (Verizon) did not work in the park (or anywhere else in Challis area). Facilities are older, but nice fooseball table and pool table in the recreation room and jungle gym/swing set for kids outside. We would stay again, but felt the $27 rate was high for no cable and no Wi-Fi. - PATHFINDER AND RAINBOW

Stayed 2 days. We have a big rig and fit in the large level pull-through site with no problem. We were one of only 6 vehicles. Check in was quick, staff were friendly. We had good cell service and wifi. The covered picnic table was nice. Not many amenities here but we would stay again if in the area. - mohocamper
Sep 2016 - $19.00
This is a good sized park with very large sites - extra long because it used to be a mobile home park. I don't know why all the big trees were cut down at some point but they have planted new ones - yet it will be a while before there is any shade at all. But this makes the satellite signal easy to get. The wifi is excellent and our Verizon 4G was strong as well. The wifi might diminish if there were more people here - there were only 3 other rigs here when we were here. The management is very nice - I think they are trying to rebuild this RV Park and appreciate the business. Our rate ($19) was Passport America - but I think they take all the other ones too. All utilities were fine and the restrooms were small but clean. Again - if they ever fill this place up I would be a worried about availability of the restroom. They have a lot more sites than that facility can support. We would stay here again if in this area. Would be nice to have a picnic table at our site. - NiMo

Stayed here going to northern Idaho and also coming back. Loved the large long sites with a good deal of space between. Formerly mobile home sites. Restrooms/showers very clean. Wifi at site worked great, also no extra charge. Stayed at Passport America rate. Will stay here again. - Coastn

Arrived without reservation, friendly staff assigned us a large, on the river site. Quiet, relaxing. Really enjoyed the hot springs pool: the perfect temperature for me, which was hot! I didn't try the smaller, even hotter indoor pool as it was too hot for me. No AT&T cell here, Verizon air card did work. No sewer on site, dump station at entrance. DirecTV satellite no problem from my site. Other sites may have some tree issues. A nice find, I recommend a visit and would come back in the future. - Brujomar

One reason I did not give this park a "10" is that is a long walk through the tent area to the showers. If you camp self-contained, no problem. The other reason to mark this park a "9" is that it is almost 5 miles off the main Highway at the end of a ranch-filled valley. However, it is worth the extra drive. The hot springs flow into a 2 swimming pools with natural rock bottoms. The hot pool was too hot for us to use comfortably, but must be great in the winter. The larger pool is outdoors and stays about 99 degrees. WONDERFUL! The water is crystal clear, uniformly 4 feet deep and Olympic sized. Use of the hot spring pools is included in the price of the RV stay. The RV spaces are nicely spread along the Salmon River bank. We would definitely stop here again next time we are in Idaho! - WNC Traveler

This is our 5th time at Challis Hot Springs, so of course we love it here. The pools are as fabulous as ever, and they have been upgraded with new stainless steel railings for added safety and access. The WiFi is stronger and can now be used at some of the RV sites. It was not quite strong enough to use at our favorite site # 21, but we were able to sit in the office to use it. Try to get a site along the river if possible. The camp has been in the same family for four generations, and everyone here was extremely helpful and friendly. We recommend that EVERYONE spend at least one night here! - nevadagurl

I checked off "pull thru" sites but there are only 2 or 3 of them. The rest are back-in. The pit toilets are kept very clean. The roads and sites are asphalt and fairly level. Sites have picnic tables and campfire grills. Half of the campground is on the river side of Idaho 75 the other half are located on the other side of the road. The water is by old fashioned pump, which means you can't hook a water hose up to it. There is a dump station and drinking water is available to dump/fill your tanks 1 mile south of Stanley, ID., at the ranger station. A $5.00 donation is appreciated. - gonzo444
Jun 2008 - $11.00
The only reason this campground did not get a 10 is because there are no hookups. This is a beautiful National Forest Service Campground located about 4 miles northeast of Stanley and is right on the beautiful Salmon River, the "River of No Return" which was the setting for the movie starring Marilyn Monroe. The sites are all very long, paved, and many are right on the banks of the river. This is one of the few National Forest Campgrounds in this Sawtooth Wilderness area where the roads and sites are fully paved and can handle a big rig. We pulled our 40' motorhome (with ease) head into the site so we could see the river from the windshield. The river was about 30 feet in front of us, with lots of white water boiling over the rocks. The camp manager was gracious and welcomed us like family. We boon docked here for only two nights due to our schedule, but we will definitely return for a longer stay. - 2Miles

Took a "chance" with this park on account of latest review being in 2014? First off the senior owner is very nice as is all of the relations that work at the camp...and there many of them. Unfortunately ALL of their attention seems directed to the campgrounds "cafe" that services breakfasts thru dinner all but Monday's. While we found the food good, it was also very much overpriced. The campground itself was in need of major attention. The "terrace" level with a beautiful view of the mountains was dry and dusty, no shade not grass, and resembled more of a maintenance staging area than a campground. Most of the trailers there appeared to be long-term. I wouldn't store my motorhome there. It is nothing but a maintenance staging area, dry and dusty, with a number of what looked to be full-timers. As for the lower shaded area around the "cafe" a large number of the sites appear longer term possibly workers in the cafe. most of the sites appear to be longer stay campers. Dogs were not kept on leashes and allow to use the entire park as their private bathroom area and nobody seemed to care. Weeds around our hookups were over a foot tall and I pulled many just to get to the water connection. It was like nobody gave any attention, or cared, about what went on outside the "cafe". As for bathrooms/showers they were not what I would label dirty but far from up to my level of cleanliness. Both the individual toilet and shower "bays" we're very "tight"! I believe we stayed in site #12, in a motorhome, and no, we would not stay at this park next time in the Stanley area. This park deserves no more than a 4 rating. - Sweatlife
Sep 2014 - $27.00
This park has a variety of site sizes and types in the lower shaded area...some more level than others. Pads are gravel, no fire pits at individual sites, but a nice central fire pit/grill in a grass area with a large awning over picnic tables. The Pot Belly cafe on-site is very good casual dining. The smoked prime rib offered on Weds & Sat is great. Free laundromat and nice folks make this worth a visit. - bugsy

Is Lindsay Lohan Joining Scientology?
It appears Lindsay Lohan may be turning to Scientology to deal with her alcohol and drug problems. John Travolta has apparently taken the young star under his wing, after convincing the producers of "Gotti: Three Generations" to cast her.
An insider told the National Enquirer, "Even though producers were hesitant to hire Lindsay because of her troubled past. Travolta assured them he'd take her under his wing.
"He feels confident he'll be able to keep her on the straight and narrow … now and forever." Read more…

Our Meralgia Paresthetica Main Article provides a comprehensive look at the who, what, when and how of Meralgia Paresthetica
Medical Definition of Meralgia paresthetica
Meralgia paresthetica: Entrapment or pinching of the nerve that supplies sensation to the outer portion of the thigh. The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve becomes entrapped as it passes under the ligament of the groin. The pressure on the nerve causes burning, pain, and numbness over the distribution of this nerve, the outer and part of the front of the thigh.
Meralgia paresthetica is usually associated with enlargement of the belly, such as in obesity or in pregnancy. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause. Meralgia paresthetica can also be treated by local cortisone injection at the point where the nerve crosses the crease in the groin. Infrequently, surgical release of the nerve is necessary.
Meralgia paresthetica is also known as lateral femoral cutaneous nerve syndrome.

Very nice hotel. Beautiful rooms and good services.
Very nice location with lovely view on the surrounding mountains. Very spacious room and very large bathroom. Quite comfortable indeed. Unfortunately the wellness area closes early (19.30) and we could not use it.
clean, good value for money, polite staff heating
This Hotel Is ideal for travellers who enjoy a clean modern hotel room and perfect quietness.It serves a very good breakfast. Do not even think of staying in this only hotel of the village of Bocenago unless you have a car.There are only two restaurants in the village and no shops.Limited stations on tv in room.No direct connection by telephone in room. Ski /boot storage not heated and Hotel overpriced.
Parking, nearby restaurant
The kindness of the staff, the clean rooms, the nice village. no there was nothing like that
Very friendly owner, nice location, lovely appartments with balcony, sauna. It was relatively cold inside, but this thing is common for the region.
We liked coffee, congratulation on 8th March with flowers, owner's attitude, cleanliness and breakfast was really good. There was nothing that we didn't like.
Lovely house with wounderful interiors, very attentive owners No any issues

Not as good as I had hoped: Celebrity Summit Cruise Review by firsttimeforme
Overall Member Rating
Not as good as I had hoped
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: Bayonne (Cape Liberty)
The food was pretty average though. The Waterfall Cafe had cafeteria-style food (pasta, so-so pizza, lots of casserole type dishes) although the sushi bar was absolutely excellent (why wasn't this available at lunch time?). The kids enjoyed the food but my husband and I ate our lunches at the Spa - tiny serves but at least it was fresh and tasty. The Cosmopolitan food was very ordinary. Our waiter was hysterical - gave us very detailed descriptions each night (I actually do know what a 'jus' is!) but pronounced all the French words phonetically. I didn't have the heart to correct him but perhaps waiter training could include pronunciation? Here's a hint too - if you order breakfast room service in Concierge class, freshly squeezed orange juice is free but you have to pay $2.50 on deck! We ordered orange juice in our cabins and then took it to breakfast More with us! We had dinner at the Normandie one night - nice food but not good enough to justify an extra $35 a head.
The ports were great (except Portland - boring!!) and we really enjoyed ourselves on port days. But where were all the activities during the 'at sea' days? I was expecting lectures on the history of the places we were going (there was one very boring lectures on lighthouses and that was it!) and lots of free, educational stuff. Instead, we were offered the chance to pay lots of money for whiskey tastings - sorry, not interested.
The shows varied a lot. One comedian should have been put out to pasture years ago - i cringed at his show and even his target audience (ladies of 80+) didn't enjoy it. Troy was very funny though. The sing and dance shows were terrible but the cappella group was very good.
Overall - my kids (aged 19 and 15) had a ball hanging out with the other kids on the cruise and would do it again but my husband and I wouldn't bother again with a cruise unless it was down a river and there was a port day EVERY day. Less

* C$ ends at C$0.9980 vs US$, or $1.0020 * C$ hits 2-week high against euro * C$ matches April 2010 high versus yen * Bond prices little changed across curve By Claire Sibonney TORONTO, Feb 7 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar fell against its U.S. counterpart on Thursday after weak North American data reminded the market there are still headwinds facing economic growth and after comments by the ECB raised worries about the outlook for Europe. The currency took some cues from major global stock markets, which fell after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi voiced concerns about the impact of the recent strength of the euro on the euro zone economy, opening the door for a possible rate cut. "The whole risk-on/risk-off (correlation) is starting to show some signs of wearing down, but I suspect it's not gone from our market entirely," said Shaun Osborne, chief currency strategist at TD Securities. "At the moment if we see a big off-day in stocks, we probably will see the sort of high-beta commodity currencies underperform to a degree." Also weighing on sentiment, Canadian building permits posted their biggest two-month drop in at least 24 years in December, though prices of new homes ended the year 2.3 percent higher than in December 2011. In the United States, initial jobless claims fell less than expected in the latest week and U.S. productivity dropped sharply in the fourth quarter. BIG MOVES ON CROSSES The Canadian dollar ended the North American session at C$0.9980 against the greenback, or $1.0020, weaker than Wednesday's finish of C$0.9955, or C$1.0045. Market players will be eyeing Friday's Canadian employment report for January for further direction. Canada's labor market likely came back to earth in January after gravity-defying job gains in the final months of 2012, with analysts predicting almost no new hiring in the month and a rise in the unemployment rate. Analysts noted that the U.S.-Canada currency pair is still fairly rangebound, moving in a narrow 60-odd-point band this week between C$0.9932-95. Osborne pointed to significant U.S.-dollar buying demand around C$0.9950 and selling interest towards parity with the Canadian dollar. A Reuters poll released on Wednesday showed economists and foreign exchange strategists expected the Canadian dollar to strengthen over the course of 2013, looking past the Bank of Canada's recent dovish comments and finding support from an improving U.S. economy. On the crosses on Thursday the Canadian dollar hit a two-week high versus the euro. Against the yen it rose to its strongest level since April 2010. "Anything that is relevant in Canada at the moment seems to be happening on the crosses," Osborne said. Canadian government bond prices were little changed across the curve, with the two-year bond up less than one Canadian cent to yield 1.156 percent, and the benchmark 10-year bond off 4 Canadian cents to yield 2.000 percent.

Calls of Warrants: Timing and Market Reaction
- Abstract
- Full Text PDF
- Author(s): PAUL SCHULTZ
- Published: Apr 30, 2012
- Pages: 681-696
- DOI: 10.1111/j.1540-6261.1993.tb04733.x
This paper examines the timing of, and reaction to, calls of callable warrants. Three main findings emerge. First, unlike convertible bonds or preferred stock, callable warrants are called almost as soon as possible. Second, there is a negative price reaction of about 3 percent when a call is announced. Finally, at the completion of a call, the stock price rebounds by an average of 7 percent. The total reaction from announcement through completion of the call is a positive excess return of about 4 percent.

Valentine's Day means flowers and chocolates for most, but for Austin Bowa it was a much sweeter treat as he earned his license as a commercial helicopter pilot while also celebrating his 18th birthday.
A very self-possessed and modest young man, Bowa has been single-mindedly pursuing his dream of piloting a helicopter since he was 7 years old.
Still in his early teens, he took his first training flight with John Crawford, an instructor with Sierra Air Helicopters at the Auburn Airport. It's Crawford who has provided most of Bowa's training.
"He's a natural," said Crawford, "and the best student. Smart, steady, does what he's supposed to do. Does his homework, stays calm. He's a good pilot. He started when he was 15 1/2 and has been going at it steadily. He's right where he needs to be."
Getting his license meant jumping three hurdles in addition to turning 18 and having 150 hours of flight time under his belt.
First was a written exam on Feb. 12; Austin passed with a score of 98 percent. The following Friday he had an oral exam which lasted on-and-a-half hours.
"They can last three to five hours," said Crawford, "but Austin knows his stuff so well they ran out of questions to ask him. I talked to the examiner and he said it was perfect and wished he had it on video. He even went outside the box and knew everything."
Jeff said he was also jittery, "But he's been well-trained and I'm confident in him," he said. "Nothing stops him when he sets his mind to it. He's driven. That's for sure."
His parents said he is also taking a ROP law enforcement class and has applied for a ROTC scholarship with the Army. Later he plans to enlist as an officer in the army and then go directly to flight school.
"I'm really proud of Austin," said Shelly. "He's an inspiration to younger kids. It sends a message to kids thinking of flying helicopters that they can do it. I hope other parents will support their children's dreams."
After the test flight, Austin agreed, saying "It feels good to get it over with. Now I can get paid to fly."
Shyly laughing off the one minor mishap during the test, he said the door of the helicopter came open three times during the flight.
"But it was no big deal," he said. "I was a little nervous at the beginning, but calmed down as it went along."
Austin said his next step is pursuing certificates as a certified flight instructor and certified instrument instructor. He will start training in those areas in the next few weeks. All those hours are needed because, according to Jeff, Austin will need about 1,000 hours of flight time before he can get a job as a helicopter pilot.
Austin said something he is looking forward to later this year is a trip to Alaska with one of the thrills being landing a helicopter on a glacier.

From the beginning, both partners have been committed to being a "family first" organization and to having fun. Most of their employees are moms working part-time, and they are glad to know that family situations can be their first priority. Of course this means that they have a very loyal staff! And the happiness of the employees is reflected in the fun atmosphere of the store, where parents and grandparents bring their kids in for an impromptu "playgroup" while they shop.
And their bottom line is their friendship. "We both agree that there's nobody else we'd want to be in business with," says Mary. "Whenever we start to have a problem, we look at each other and think, 'That's not who we are,' and that helps us keep things in perspective." And although they have a professional approach to running the business, they try not to take things too seriously. After all, says Mary, "We're just selling used kids clothes!"
Baby & Me, like many businesses these days, runs on specialized software. Resale World site licenses cost several thousand dollars, but the system lets them track every item that comes in and goes out. Color-coded pricetags are printed and attached to each item. Keeping track of the flow of merchandise is vital to their success since thousands of items are brought in each month.
Some of their customers just shop, some also bring in clothing as "consigners," and some just consign. Each consigner is allowed to bring in two bags of clean clothing between the first and 21st of each month, and they have seasonal requirements. Mary goes through the clothes, sorting out things that will not work in the store. Consigners indicate on the self-addressed postcard they fill out whether they want to donate or pick up the items that either don't qualify for sale, or which don't sell after 90 days. A full explanation of their consignment policies is on their website at babyandmepdx.com

Donated merchandise goes to the faith-based Northwest Children's Outreach (northwestchildrensoutreach.org) which distributes it to caregivers in the area for families in need. Baby & Me is one of their major donors. About half of the consigners choose to donate unsold or unwanted items.
One of the biggest challenges that the business has faced was during and after the road construction on Cornell. The original location, next to the 7-Eleven Store, was severely affected by the lack of access into the lot. "There were times when the crews working on Saltzman and the crews working on Cornell both had the driveways blocked. It almost took us under," Mary recalls. Even after the roadwork was done, that corner has poor access due to the median barriers. All the businesses have felt the pain.
"But we remain committed to this area. So when we realized that space was available in Saltzman Village (often referred to as the triangle center) we looked into it. We were told that the building owner asked the property management people to make it happen for us."
The move has been a great success. Since April, they've been seeing customers they haven't seen for three years, who had given up trying to get into the old location. The new store is full of light and more spacious, with better back-office storage for the "organized chaos" of bags of items waiting to be sorted.
They only recently re-joined the Cedar Mill Business Association. They hadn't felt that the group was very relevant to their business, since there are not a lot of retailers in the area with whom they could trade information. But they're hopeful that CMBA can provide more high-level planning and a network of information and references for businesses who might like to locate here. It's the sort of service a city's Business Development agency might provide, but since we don't have a city, we may just need to do it ourselves.
Baby & Me is located at 12640 NW Cornell Road. Their phone number is 503-646-2021, and their website is babyandmepdx.com. They are open Monday-Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.

OSHA's Enhanced Enforcement Program (EEP) addresses employers who, despite OSHA's enforcement and outreach efforts, ignore their OSH Act obligations, thereby placing their employees at risk. A primary component of the program is Priority Enforcement Cases (PEC). A PEC is defined as any inspection that meets one or more of the following criteria at the time the citation is issued:
Any fatality inspection in which OSHA finds that a willful violation of a standard caused the death of an employee will, in addition to being subject to these PEC procedures, also be considered for criminal referral under section 17(e) of the Act.

Low Blood PressureLow blood pressure; Blood pressure - low; Postprandial hypotension; Orthostatic hypotension; Neurally mediated hypotension; NMH
Low blood pressure occurs when blood pressure is much lower than normal. This means the heart, brain, and other parts of the body do not get enough blood. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 130/80 mmHg.
The medical name for low blood pressure is hypotension.
Blood pressurevaries fromone personto another.A drop as little as 20 mmHg, can cause problems for some people. There are different types and causes of low blood pressure.
Severe hypotension can be caused by sudden loss of blood (shock), severe infection, heart attack, or severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).
Orthostatic hypotension iscaused by a sudden change in body position. This occursmost often when youshift from lying down to standing. This type oflow blood pressureusually lasts only a few seconds or minutes. If this type oflow blood pressureoccurs after eating, it is called postprandial orthostatic hypotension. Thistype mostoften affects older adults, those with high blood pressure, and persons with Parkinson disease.
Neurally mediated hypotension (NMH)most often affects young adults and children. Itcan occur when a person has been standing for a long time. Children usually outgrow this type of hypotension.
Certainmedicines and substancescan lead to low blood pressure,including:
- Alcohol
- Anti-anxiety medicines
- Certain antidepressants
- Diuretics
- Heart medicines, including those used to treat high blood pressure and coronary heart disease
- Medicines used for surgery
- Painkillers
Other causes of low blood pressure include:
- Nerve damage from diabetes
- Changes in heart rhythm (arrhythmias)
- Not drinking enough fluids (dehydration)
- Heart failure
Symptoms of low blood pressuremay include:
- Blurry vision
- Confusion
- Dizziness
- Fainting (syncope)
- Lightheadedness
- Nausea or vomiting
- Sleepiness
- Weakness
Exams and Tests
The health care provider will examine you to determinethe cause of yourlow blood pressure. Your vital signs (temperature, pulse, rate of breathing, blood pressure) will be checked frequently. You may need to stay in the hospital for a while.
The doctor will ask questions, including:
- What is your normal blood pressure?
- What medications do you take?
- Have you been eating and drinking normally?
- Have you had any recent illness, accident, or injury?
- What other symptoms do you have?
- Did you faint or become less alert?
- Do you feel dizzy or light-headed when standing or sitting after lying down?
The following tests may be done:
- Basic metabolic panel
- Blood cultures to check for infection
- Complete blood count (CBC), including blood differential
- Urinalysis
- X-ray of the abdomen
- X-ray of the chest
Lower than normalblood pressurein a healthy person that does not cause anysymptomsoften does notneed treatment. Otherwise, treatment depends on the cause of your low blood pressure and your symptoms.
When you have symptoms from a drop in blood pressure, sit or lie down right away. Then raise your feet above heart level.
Severe hypotension caused by shock is a medical emergency. You may be given:
- Blood through a needle (IV)
- Medicines to increase blood pressure and improve heart strength
- Other medicines, such as antibiotics
Treatments for low blood pressure after standing up too quickly include:
- If medicines are the cause, your doctor may change the dosage or switch you to a different drug. Do notstop taking any medicines before talking to your doctor.
- Your doctor may suggest drinkingmore fluids to treat dehydration.
- Wearingcompression stockings can help keep blood from collecting in the legs. This keeps more blood in the upper body.
Personswith NMH should avoid triggers, such as standing for a long period of time. Other treatments include drinking fluids and increasing salt in your diet. Talk to your doctor before trying these measures. In severe cases, medicines may be prescribed.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Low blood pressure can usually be treated with success.
Possible Complications
Falls due to low blood pressure in older adultscan lead to a broken hip or spinefracture. These injuries can reduce a person's health and ability to move around
Sudden severe drops in your blood pressure starves your body of oxygen. This can lead to damage of the heart, brain, and other organs. This type oflow blood pressurecan be life threatening if not treated right away.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
If low blood pressure causes a person to pass out (become unconscious), seek treatment right away.Or call the local emergency number such as 911. If the person is not breathing or has no pulse, begin CPR.
Call your doctorright awayif you have any of the following symptoms:
- Black or maroon stools
- Chest pain
- Dizziness, lightheadedness
- Fainting
- Fever higher than 101°F (38.3°C)
- Irregular heartbeat
- Shortness of breath
Your doctor may recommend certain steps to prevent or reduce your symptoms including:
- Drinkingmore fluids
- Getting up slowly after sitting or lying down
- Not drinkingalcohol
- Notstanding for a long time (if you have NMH)
- Using compression stockingssoblood does not collect in the legs

Trigger Warning
A rapist has taken away perhaps the most fundamental right that any human being has, and one that all women, people of color, trans people, and children have stolen from them on a regular basis: the right to control one's own body. The impacts of this theft of choice can last a lifetime.
When I made the decision to report my rape to Tufts, I was well aware that I was not a "perfect victim" but I did not know how that was going to matter so much in how seriously Tufts took my rape. I must admit that I was overly naive, but I was confident that my school was going to at least follow their own rules when it came to my report. I unfortunately learned quickly that I was very wrong. Over time I heard bits and pieces about the administration's reactions to my assault and their subsequent indifference. Little did I know that being a woman of colour was another point against being far from a "perfect victim" who deserved justice.
Countless hours of reading about how many disadvantages I have as a woman of colour as well as a rape victim in our society brought me to the conclusion that my story is yet another example of intersectionality of discrimination. What exactly is intersectionality?
An intersectional approach to analyzing the disempowerment of marginalized women attempts to capture the consequences of the interaction between two or more forms of subordination. It addresses the manner in which racism, patriarchy, class oppression and other discriminatory systems create inequalities that structure the relative positions of women, races, ethnicities, classes, and the like. Moreover, intersectionality addresses the way that specific acts and policies operate together to create further disempowerment.
—- "Background Briefing on Intersectionality" Center for Women's Global Leadership
I won't hesitate to say that my experience with Tufts has left me completely disempowered. My gender already greatly increased my chances of being raped. My class gave me little resources and power/influence to be able to find outside help that could have preventing things from getting so terrible in the aftermath. And my race made me perceived as less believable when I reported. In the end the specific acts of admin members (not believing me, not accommodating me academically, etc) in addition to an already greatly lacking sexual assault policy lead to a very unfortunate turnout.
The issue of intersectionality in the context of rape is actually something that has been analyzed. Kimberle Williams Crenshaw, in "Mapping the Margins: Intersectionality, Identity Politics, and Violence Against Women of Color" writes (emphasis mine):
Generations of critics and activists have criticized dominant conceptualizations of rape as racist and sexist. These efforts have been important in revealing the way in which representations of rape both reflect and reproduce race and gender hierarchies in American society.
…[A] sexual hierarchy [is] in operation that holds certain female bodies in higher regard than others. Statistics from prosecution of rape cases suggest that this hierarchy is at least one significant, albeit often overlooked factor in evaluating attitudes toward rape. A study of rape dispositions in Dallas, for example, showed that the average prison term for a man convicted of raping a Black woman was two years, as compared to five years for the rape of a Latina and ten years for the rape of an Anglo woman. A related issue is the fact that African-American victims of rape are the least likely to be believed.
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of having a policy that effectively addresses intersectionality. It is hard to try and plead my case (and expect 100% equal treatment) to a group of people primarily compromised of older, privileged, straight, white men who will never be subjected to the discrimination and marginalization I will have to experience as a woman of colour. This is why training (not only just about sexual violence, but about the different dynamics that are related to it) is SO IMPORTANT.
Lisa M. Calderón, M.L.S., J.D. wrote a piece titled "Rape, Racism and Victim Advocacy" in which she emphasizes the importance of victim advocates being aware of the dynamics of race in relation to rape. The points she raises can also be applied to key university players that have to deal with student-student rape. Does Tufts University want to consciously participate as a contributor to a "society that validates certain victims while excluding others?" Remember that the reaction of the community to a survivor is a KEY FACTOR in how quickly they recover.
Elizabeth Kennedy, Research Analyst at Brandeis writes about "Victim Rape and Rape" in which black women are less likely to report,and when they do they are even less likely to get their case persecuted. A study even shows that jurors are even less likely to convict when the survivor is black as opposed to white. She finds that there are a "range of inequalities that African American women face as victims of rape."
The Center for Public Integrity's investigation showed that rape victims are a lot more likely to withdraw from school if they report to their university and react negatively. People of colour already have lower college graduation rates. Does Tufts as an institution want to contribute to the perpetuation of these statistics? All of these things need to be kept in mind when dealing with survivors of sexual assault. Ignoring that the class or ethnicity of a student matters when dealing with a case of sexual assault merely continues the cycle of discrimination and oppression.

Return to Deer Taxidermy Category Menu
Thats a really cool idea . Did you try looking in your telephone book under metal - plating first ? Rick
Tadman, we are Dodge City Cape, Hide & Skull. We offer gold, silver or bronze for skulls, however it is not true plating. But the final results look like cast metal and it is probabley alot cheaper. Send us an email if you would like more info.
Dodge City does great work and their heads look like they were plated. And it is allot cheaper than having them plated.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Slater Praises President's Executive Order on Trails
U.S. Transportation Secretary Rodney E. Slater today said an executive order on trails that was issued by President Clinton will help the U.S. Department of Transportation to build on the Millennium Legacy Trails initiative.
"The Millennium Legacy Trails symbolize the spirit of our efforts to connect our nation's culture, heritage and communities," Secretary Slater said. "The President's order will be of great help as federal agencies, state and local partners, and the American people work toward the goal of establishing a nationwide network of trails."
The President's order instructs federal agencies to work with states, municipalities, tribes and private groups to protect, connect, promote, and assist trails of all kinds throughout the country. The order also instructs the Federal Interagency Council on Trails to coordinate information and program decisions, as well as policy recommendations, to foster development of America's trails. The council, established in 1969, is an interagency working group that includes the Department of Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and National Park Service, the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, and the Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
Also completed this month was a memorandum of understanding for the administration and management of National Historic and National Scenic Trails. The memorandum was signed by FHWA Administrator Kenneth R. Wykle, National Park Service Director Robert Stanton, BLM Acting Director Nina Hatfield, Forest Service Chief Mike Dombeck, and William Ivey, Chair of the National Endowment for the Arts.
The purpose of the memorandum is to encourage long-term interagency coordination and cooperation to further the spirit and intent of the National Trails System Act by preserving and strengthening the visitor satisfaction, administration, management, protection, cultural enhancement, cooperation, partnerships, and funding of those lands and resources associated with the national trails.
At a White House ceremony on Oct. 21, 1999, Secretary Slater joined First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton and state and local officials from across the country to announce 50 Millennium Legacy Trails in 47 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. The Millennium Trails initiative is a collaborative effort of the White House Millennium Council, the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy. Private sector companies and other agencies and organizations also have contributed funds toward the initiative.
"Millennium Trails are a way to connect America's past to its future," Wykle said. "This order will help us to build and maintain long-distance trails, rail and water trails, greenway systems and other historical and cultural trails, all of which are a vital part of our nation's heritage."
Examples of Millennium Legacy Trails around the country include the California Coastal Trail, which runs more than 1,200 miles along the scenic California coast; Florida's National Scenic Trail, which runs the length of the state from Gulf Islands National Seashore to Big Cypress National Preserve; and Wisconsin's Hank Aaron State Trail, named after the legendary home run king, which is a six-mile urban trail passing through a historic industrial and ethnically diverse section of Milwaukee.
The executive order advises agencies to:
The order also encourages federal agencies to provide information about the national system of trails and the Millennium Trails network; foster volunteer programs and opportunities to engage volunteers in all aspects of trail planning, development, maintenance, management, and education as outlined in federal law; encourage participation of qualified youth conservation or service corps; and provide historical and cultural information about trails.
The Federal Interagency Council on Trails is instructed to:

Rotiform SNA's
So I am debating the purchase of these wheels http://www.rotiform.com/products_cast_1piece_sna.htm , I love the look and think they will fit my e46 sedan nicely. I have done a little research, not sure if it's the time of night but I cant find a clear answer to help me pull the trigger. The two sizes offered are 19X9 et40, or et35. I'm looking for a nice, as flush as possible without rubbing setup. My search has led me to believe that either (1) I will need to roll the fenders and/ or (2) Run et40 with a smaller tire? Just looking for some insight from the pros to help my undecided noob-ish mind :banghead:. TIA
Current Setup- Stock sport suspension. (Plans on installing Hotchkis springs)

Demand Citibank Explain Why It Shut Down Gay Networking Site's Account
Earlier this week, Citibank closed the business account of social networking site for gay men, fabulis. When fabulis called to demand an explanation, they were told that their account had been suspended due to "objectionable content" on their blog.
The first problem with this is that banks should not be acting like moral policy for their clients. The second problem with this is that there is no content on fabulis' blog to find objectionable - except their focus on a gay userbase.
Our companies have too much power and responsibility to allow something like this to go ignored. We demand that Citibank not only restore fabulis' account, but that they provide a full explanation for their "objectionable content" policy and an explanation for why fabulis' blog was deemed objectionable.

Earlier this week, your company shut down the account of gay networking site fabulis.
When they called to find out what had happened, no less than three of your employees told them the account had been suspended due to "objectionable content" on their blog, and that they were being reviewed to have their account terminated all together.
The problems with this are both the fact that there is any policy in place which would terminate a company's account because of their blog, and the fact that the only content that any one would find "objectionable" on their blog is their focus on a gay lifestyle.
This is a flagrant abuse of power, that is anti-customer at best and homophobic at worst. We demand that you restore fabulis' account, and that you offer all of your customers a full explanation for what happened.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Very good fitness/leisure centre. Room was spacious and very quiet. Breakfast buffet was extensive and waitering staff were very good. Location (usually - see below) very good. Plumbing was of a surprisingly poor standard for such a brand new hotel; the bathroom floor was flooded on the first morning of our stay due to poor drainage and there was no curtain over the bath, meaning that taking a shower mean the room became flooded. What disappointed us most, though, was the fact that the Kurpark, which the details about the hotel had shown (correctly) as immediately adjacent to the hotel, was closed off and only accessible (at a cost of 14.00 Euros) as part of the Regional Garden Show running until October. This meant that one of the primary reasons we had chosen this hotel (its location) was much less in accordance with the actual situation than we had anticipated.
We loved the location and enjoyed the traditional style, architecture and feeling of the hotel. Pool was a nice bonus.
Very efficient, clean, good parking. Souless, but it was only 6 days before christmas.
Very nice location in the "Kurpark"
The Dolce is situated next to the park, is very quiet and has an excellent breakfast buffet. It is close to Frankfurt, so very easy to get there (40km by car)
The location near the park Distance to reception from frontentry too far
Breakfast was very good. Room was large although beds were low to the Ground. No Shampoo, conditioner, etc. Only a dispenser on the wall. Not to be compared to business amenities at the Hilton.
10 minute walk from the train station
Friendly personnel at the front desk
The Hotel Rosenau is a very nice hotel, all rooms with good comfort, free internet in the rooms, nice warm bathrooms, good breakfast. Also the city is very nice with nice shops and good selection of restaurants, Parking area is too small.
Good service, easy parkingg, excellent breakfast, easy to find if you are driving. The third bed (additional) for a child was not comfortable.
The restaurant was closed- we had a rather long way to go to find another!
Helpfullness of staff
employees were extremely helpful and nice, i had a very nice room 201 with beautiful view of course the toilet in the middle of the room is not ideal
kindness of staff see before
Historical very lovely guiet hotel with friendly staff . Good location.
This was one of the most pleasant places we stayed. The room was immaculate, Frau Siegsmund, the owner, was extremely accommodating. She even offered to go to town with me to help me buy presents for my daughters. The meals were good and the dining room let us eat even after we overslept .
The hotel's germany traditional style and location (near to station) were good.
Very comfortable historical hotel in the center of the city
Friendly staff and good location near shopping area No english TV or newspapers. Pillows very hard (foam) - I prefer soft pillows (feather).
Very friendly staff, hotel room is very clean... very high value for money
Hotel lies about Airport shuttle service, cost $100 to get to the airport, not worth it!
I didn't like the fact that there was a smelly dog lying in reception when I got there that refused to move. The receptionist - an aged gentleman wasn't very forthcoming with information or of any assistance, parking was horrendous. The 'shower room' was an after thought within the bedroom, which was little more than a trickle. I was kept awake by the television in the next room being too loud, and was woken at 5.45 once again by the tv next door!! All in all I would neither stay there again or recommmend the hotel.
Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of room. Excellent breakfast! Nothing
Super-friendly people who genuinely care about their customers (not just 'being polite'), spacious room. Struggling to think of any
I love the location close to the Centre and the Kurpark, and away from a main road. No
Cheap and quiet hotel, comfortable location, good breakfast and very smart hotel staff.
we liked the location of the hotel to the town and the Elvis sights no tea or coffee in our room
Clean, confortable, nice hand-written little message at the reception to indicate our rooms location (was late in the night). Calm and kind staff. There are always and everywhere at least one detail to mention, but no need to do it concerning this hotel.
nice hotel for a country side stay, all facilities ok, only for us a bit further from heidelberg than expected (50 min ride). dog price per night was double as all other hotels we visited in Germany (8€ p/n for a small dog)
cvery good breakfast and nice and big rooms Internet connection not available in the room (at least not in the depandance were I stay).
The food is world class Internet access was intermittent
Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff combined with tradition rich hotel and wonderful food in the restaurant. Minor issue with the strength of the wireless internet connection-- easily remedied.
One of the nicest hotel rooms we have ever had. All staff friendly, courteous and helpful. Restaurant and staff amazing. No tea making facilities in room.
All > No.
Family owned hotel. Very good value for money.
The breakfast was excellent considering the size of the hotel and the staff was friendly and always willing to assist in any way possible.
The breakfast was excellent given the size of the hotel. The staff was friendly and happy to assist in any way possible. The parking arrangements could have been better. Our last night there we had to park on the street due to lack of parking space. There isn't much room to work with though so this isn't a major complaint.
the breakfast was very good Smell of tobacco in the room
I liked it, it was cosy and quiet, everything was ok while my short visit. No
Wonderful staff, helpful and very interested in helping me get the most out of my visit to Bad Nauheim. suggested several tours and sights to see. I could not be happier. Food was very good in the German tradition and service was excellent.
I liked the closeness to the city park and city center. The hotel staff was very friendly and made you feel very comfortable. The rooms were comfortable and clean.
The location is very central. The atmosphere is friendly and makes you feel at home. The room was very clean as the rest of the hotel and the staff was always friendly and helpful. No complaints!
simple, but clean room no staff after 5 pm
Close to train station. Free internet. Room was very small. No minibar.
It was basic but clean, sufficiently equiped and the food was good.
I like the breakfast the hotel provides every morning. Not really.
good value for the money the staff speaks only german
The staff were very friendly, the breakfast was great, and the rooms were a nice size. They assisted us with renting bikes from the rental place downtown, and helped us with directions to find restaurants and activities. We asked to have our room not cleaned, after arguing, they agreed, but then cleaned it anyway.

Currently I am loving cheap personalization. I bought a pack of 30 bubbles with little hearts on the end for $10. I will be tying personalized ribbon onto the ends.
I also thought the bubbles would be great for picture purposes. How cute??
The bubbles will be thrown into a basket along with pocket packs of tissues tied up in brown & pink ribbon. Below is my inspiration. Unfortunately the wedding themed kind go for $1 or more per pack. I found out I can get 4 plain packs at Walgreens for $1. Not bad right!?
One of my bridesmaids will be holding the basket with these items, while another holds a basket with the programs. They will be greeting my guests with these as they enter the ceremony.
Another small detail I am personally taking on is candy!
I will be creating chocolate heart lollipops in brown & pink chocolate. I will also be making chocolate wedding bells in the same colors. I am considering either using these in the favor bags or making a candy table. What do you think?
What small details are you most excited about at your own weddings?

A Will County judge, at a hearing attended by neighbors of the suspect who oppose his release, said he will decide next week whether to reduce the $1 million bond set for a Naperville man charged last fall with committing sex crimes against girls.
Samer O. Dabbouseh, 24, has been held at the Will County Jail since Oct. 26. He is charged with two counts of criminal sexual assault and seven counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse in connection with cases involving four Naperville girls--one 14-year-old and three 15-year-olds. He also is charged with one count of unlawful restraint and five counts of misdemeanor battery, prosecutors said.

There is a common misconception that these pests only exist in cheap hotels and motels. However, studies have shown that this has nothing to do with a bed bug infestation. The main defense against the bed bug population is a hotel that stays on top of the matter. Rooms should be inspected on a regular basis and treated as well. If the hotel management is seeing to it that these precautionary measures are strictly enforced, then there should be no problems. Prevention is key when it comes to this problem. Furthermore, any hotel with a procrastinating attitude when it comes to bed bugs is bound to wind up with a problem .

When Bronx DJ Kool Herc invented Hip Hop back in the late 70s, he probably had no idea it would turn into such a cultural phenomenon in the United States and around the globe. And it's also safe to assume that he probably didn't expect Jeopardy host, Alex Trebek, to start spitting rap lyrics either--but strangely enough he did.
On Monday night, the 30-year host of the legendary game show rapped lyrics from groups like the Beastie Boys and Grandmaster Flash. He even found time to kick a little Notorious B.I.G when he rapped the song "Juicy."
"I made the change from a common thief/To up close and personal with Robin Leach." Trebek rapped. But for some reason he didn't have the same smooth cadence that Biggie Smalls did, but it's hard to figure out why. Then the 73-year old spit lyrics from the Beastie Boys' song "No Sleep till Brooklyn," from the group's 1986 album "Licensed to Ill."
Trebek's rap performance was tied to a category of the show called "It's a rap," where he quoted a small section of a particular verse, and the contestants had to either figure out the rest it or guess who wrote it. However, it was hard to stump the contestants, as they seemed to answer the first few questions very easily, which shows that rap music these days may not be loved by everyone, but it certainly has penetrated pop culture to the point where you don't have to be an expert to know a particular song.
Of course this isn't the first time Jeopardy used Hip-Hop based questions in the show, and it's not the first time Trebek has gone viral either. But it is the first time that he seemed very comfortable spitting rap tunes, which could make a person wonder if he's been secretly practicing in his dressing room. I mean, it would make sense, wouldn't it?

The reason it struck a chord with me is that it resembles the traditional Sami dress so much. Sami (or Saami) are the indigenous people of Lapland in northern Finland, Sweden and Norway. Being from Finland, I felt this dress would be like wearing a national costume when I live my life here in the US.
A Swedish designer Emma Lundgren drew inspiration for her latest collection 'Samilight' from her Nordic roots and the Sami clothing. Cool thing about her pieces is that they're made from recycled and sustainable materials like wool, wood, cupcake molds (!!) and such.
I'm visiting Finland in July and hoping I'll find some awesome, original, old Finnish or Sami jewelry, fabrics and clothes... for myself and for the store as well! :)
