This brass based table lamp is very slick and almost exudes a powerful sensibility. I see it in a Mad Men style office, or moody bedroom.
This super modernist coffee table is a huge, sculptural statement piece. I absolutely love the polished brown wood legs and the solid brass trim.
I love this glass, steel and brass two-tiered antique table. It would be a fabulous side table, or even an occasional table or bar for entertaining. So glam!
These brass trophies would look amazing on the shelves of a library or study. Very old-timey and cool.
Typical candle holders get a makeover with this modern, funky design. Joe the Plumber would be beside himself!
I get my hair cut at the hipster mecca Arrojo Studio downtown, and the space has a really cool industrial look-- all white with red exposed piping, which I was reminded of when I came across this cool coat rack.
I like it. A very unusual take on a chandelier. The store seems to pass it off as "vintage" and "timeless", but the style seems anything but classic. Could fit a gothic-themed room as well as something more eclectic.Added 8 Years Ago from Anthropologie
I love this, a pair of golden cherub wall decor. Personally I don't use sconces but someone with a sense of flair could use them as wall hooks. These can be electrified, I just like the lush vintage look. Very Paris Apartment!
Who says measuring spoons can't be stylish? These are so Victorian, so classy, I love them! A think they would make an excellent gift to any stylish cook!Added 8 Years Ago from Anthropologie
Oh my. I love contrasting material and content. Trees are wood, alive and sometimes fluid. Metal is cold, hard and man-made with little movement, yet this lovely artist used it to create life.Added 8 Years Ago from Secretcove

These nozzles have a stream and spray fixture allowing for diffused or targeted spraying. They also have adjustable heads for variable pressure and a clasp to lock the trigger.
I picked this up for my husband who is a cop...I love that the buyer must sign a waiver that the mug will not be used as a weapon!
These vintage pendant lights are on the top of my interior design wish list. These would look amazing in a kitchen. I love thi light!
I'm not sure if this is a vintage piece or just vintage inspired. Whenever it was made I love it. I think it's absolutely charming and warm.

Bill would ban insurance for abortions in Pa.
HARRISBURG - The state House debated a bill on Wednesday that would prohibit insurance coverage of abortions for low-income people under health insurance exchanges that the federal health care law would establish in 2014.
The House may consider the legislation for final passage next week, said Rep. Matt Baker, R-Wellsboro, chairman of the House Health and Human Services Committee.
The insurance exchanges would provide coverage for people now uninsured or those who can't afford much insurance, including between 700,000 and 1 million people in the state, according to figures from the Pennsylvania Health Law Project.
The Supreme Court must uphold the health care law for the state exchanges to become a reality. Baker said state officials are debating exactly what the exchanges would look like and what they will do. Loosely defined, the exchanges are government-created marketplaces to make insurance more affordable.
The intent of the bill by Rep. Donna Oberlander, R-Clarion County, is to prevent coverage for most abortions under the exchanges because they will be supported with public money. She said her bill is consistent with existing state law that prevents public money to be used for abortions.
Oberlander has 46 co-sponsors for her bill.
"Our commonwealth has a long history of not using commonwealth or federal funds in furtherance of abortions," said Rep. Bryan Cutler, R-Lancaster County. Exceptions are averting the death of the mother, incest or rape, he said.
"If you're not wealthy, you're going to have to go through the exchanges, and you won't have choice (on abortion)," said Rep. Mike Gerber, D-Montgomery County. "You're taking a woman's right to choose away because you are making it unaffordable ... that my friends, is why I find this so reprehensible."
The House rejected an amendment by Rep. Eddie Day Pashinki, D-Luzerne County, to extend coverage of abortions for women facing serious health problems.
Sari Stevens, executive director of Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania Advocates, complained the Legislature appears to spend more time focusing on abortion restrictions than dealing with the economy.
"The voters are fed up with the divisive social agenda of this legislature," Stevens said. She cited a poll by Susquehanna Polling and Research in February showing 79 percent of Pennsylvanians supported an abortion if necessary to protect the woman's health.
Despite action in both chambers, the House and Senate have been unable to agree on legislation that increases oversight of abortion clinics in the aftermath of criminal charges against a Philadelphia doctor accused of murdering a patient and killing seven late-term babies with scissors. The House approved a bill in May, and the Senate approved a similar one in June to hold abortion clinics to the same standards as surgical clinics.

I'd been a bit cranky for a few days, so I thought a nice trip to the salon to get my hair fixed up for the first day of work the next week was just the thing. I made an appointment, was all excited, but..
I arrived to find out that my stylist was no longer working there. She had been
I stood there in the doorway, indecisive. I didn't want to leave, and I was really looking forward to a haircut, so I settled for the other stylist. Someone who had given me a haircut that I wasn't entirely happy with before, but I had chalked that up to me possibly not communicating effectively. Sometimes I'm like that.
So this time I was crystal clear;
NO BOB. I don't want anything resembling a bob. I want long-ish layers, and lots of them, because I have this great natural wave that comes out when I scrunch my hair and it's layered.
Hear me? L-a-y-e-r-s. I also want to keep a lot of the length because it's longish, and I love that. Just cut off the real crispy, dry bits.
I took of my glasses, and she snipped, away, but as I squinted through the haze, I began to feel uneasy. This wasn't quite turning out how I thought it would. There didn't look like much in the way of layers. I pointed it out, and she snipped some more.
Maybe I'm just being picky. Or unreasonable.
I decided that perhaps I could live with it so I paid, went home, and was greeted with,
"What the heck happened to your hair? It's lopsided. There are pieces sticking out. It looks...weird."
This is hairstyle analysis from a 13 year old boy. Something is really, seriously, wrong.
I rushed into the bathroom and took a closer look. By god, the boy was right; some pieces were short, others long, there was some sort of choppy thing happening in places, and it just didn't look right. Almost like a short bob, on top of a long bob, with choppy bits in between. Did the woman forget her bifocals? Was she thinking I was a hedgehog in need of grooming? DID SHE USE KINDERGARTEN SCISSORS, FOR GOD'S SAKE?
The more I looked, the more horrified I became. Normally I would've sucked it up and just waited a month or so for a re-cut, but this? THIS? I didn't care what I had to pay or where I had to go because this was so not going to happen. I can't arrive at work on Tuesday, fresh to begin a new school year, with the worst haircut I've ever had. SO NOT going to happen.
I made an appointment for that afternoon with a different salon, then paced the house, snapped at Jake, angrily cleaned, complained on Twitter, and generally tried to keep myself busy.
Until this:
Actually it wasn't just the sink, but the floor, counter, all the clean dishes in the drainboard, cupboards....to Jake's credit, he tried to clean it up. Then there was water all over the floor, counter, cupboards....I'm sure you can picture it.
And then minutes later, I discovered this:
Because they left me this delightful morsel in my comments at my Everythingmom blog.
Throwing my "not calling out companies" policy to the wind, I completely called them out and then in a fit of rage, fired off really snarky e-mail that may have contained some swearing, basically telling them to go do unimaginable things to themselves and leave me the hell alone.
Then I realized that I had just given spammers my e-mail address by doing so. Ya. I'm so smart like that.
By the time I actually stepped into salon #2, I was ready to shoot lasers from my eyes and fry anyone in sight. The hair cut was bad enough, but the COST? The fact that you can't get a haircut here for less than $30 anyway, and then to go to the nicer salons you pay about $45? And I had to do this TWICE in one flippin' DAY? The fact that I say "ouch" paying $40 for ONE haircut and now I was doing it twice? TWICE?!?
I sat. I may have growled. The poor girl looked a little worried. But as she circled my chair and got a really good look at my hair, combing her fingers through and looking carefully, her brow furrowed. He mouth dropped open. And then at least, I heard an audible gasp.
"Um, wow. This is...um.. really, really bad."
"Really? How bad?" Please tell me that I'm not just being whiny because I can't justify another haircut just because I didn't like it. Please. Really. I'm begging.
"Well nothing is even. One side is longer than the other, there are choppy pieces everywhere, and, " she held up a piece that was longer than everything else, "What the hell is THIS? There are, oh my god, pieces underneath that are so short I don't know how I'll fix it. What was this person thinking? Where they even a real hairdresser?"
"That bad." I finally exhaled. Yes. Okay, guilt be GONE. This is now triage, people.
"A four year old could've done better with some garden shears," she giggled, and pretty soon I was giggling too. Maybe, just maybe, this day was going to turn out okay after all. Hair grows. I can live with that.
"I'll fix it, best I can. We can make it look nice. But you will have to come back in three months or so, after it grows, so I can really even it out. Some parts are so short I can't fix it without cutting all your hair off. You know, I've been cutting hair for 30 years, and this is definitely the worst hair cut I've ever seen. "
For the next hour and a half, she washed, snipped, re-sniped, hummed and hawed, with her brow furrowed, fixing and re-fixing, primping, spraying, drying, until finally, at long last, my hair was done. I felt pretty again, and even though it's nothing like I wanted and is a lot shorter, I no longer look like the victim of a 4 year old wielding garden shears.
At home I met Hubs on the front porch and was recounting the story to him, when Jake came running out to see me.
"Oh Mom, looks so much better! Great! How much did they charge you?" Leave it to Jake, the boy I love but who has zero sense of when to keep his damn mouth shut, to ask the million dollar question.
Suddenly there was complete silence.
Hubs eyes met mine, and I could see him doing the math in his head as he realized that two haircuts must have been a lot more than....oh CRAP.
Distract! Distract! Distract!
"Hey, did you guys eat?" I skipped past both of them into the house. "I'm hungry, I'm going to have some leftovers and why are there dishes on the counter?...."

Tornado-What to do?
When a tornado warning is spotted, a person may feel panicked and not know what to do. WGOG would like to offer some tips, and a guide on exactly what to do if you spot a tornado.
- AT HOME: Seek shelter in the basement under something sturdy, such as a bench. If there is no basement, seek shelter in a small room in the middle of the house such as a closet or bathroom. Stay away from doors and windows.
- AT WORK OR SCHOOL: Designated shelter areas are best. Stay away from large open rooms and rooms with windows. Lie low with hands covering the back of your head.
- IN MOBILE HOMES OR CARS: Leave the vehicle. Seek a safe structure or lie down in a low area with your hands covering the back of your head and neck.
Remember, a tornado warning means a tornado has been spotted or rotation has been detected by weather radar. When a Tornado warning is issued, seek shelter immediately.

A daughter of the second-highest-ranking House Democrat announced Wednesday that she is a lesbian in a public effort to build support for gay marriage.
Stefany Hoyer Hemmer, 43, is one of three daughters of House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md. She gave an exclusive interview with The Washington Blade, a gay publication, in which she disclosed her sexual orientation.
"This was not his idea at all," Hemmer said of her father. "It was mine completely, but he's very supportive. I talked to him before I did this, and he's on board. Obviously, it's a little nerve-racking for me to do this, but there's something inside of me that's telling me I need to do it."
Hoyer recently announced his support of marriage equality after a similar endorsement by President Obama. Hoyer's embrace of gay marriage prompted his daughter to seek a more activist role on gay rights issues.
"So, I think when my dad actually came out with a statement, it triggered a want in me to further the cause, and I think that he's powerful enough, and I'm, frankly, smart enough to do it. So, yeah, that was really the impetus," she said.
Maryland, Hoyer's home state, legalized gay marriage this year but opponents of the law are working to get a referendum on November's ballot to repeal it.
In a statement, Hoyer told the Blade that he was pleased with his daughter's decision. "As more people speak out, the more momentum this effort gains to give every family the dignity and respect they deserve," he said.
Many other prominent politicians have gay children. Former vice president Dick Cheney has a lesbian daughter, as does former House Democratic leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo., and Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick. All of their children support gay marriage.

Feltl and Company has published a research report on DexCom Inc. (NASDAQ: DXCM) upgrading the company.
In the report, Feltl & Company wrote, "The recent market correction has seen DexCom sell off to near its 52-week low. This has lowered the company's enterprise value to ~$650 million or about 3.8x our 2013 revenue estimate. We believe the current share price offers a favorable risk-reward trade-off, especially for a company growing at over 40% and rapidly approaching profitability."
Feltl & Company upgraded DexCom from Hold to BUY with a price target lowered from $15.85 to $15.35. DexCom closed Monday at $11.54.

Update on Hepatic Intra-Arterial Chemotherapy
Update on Hepatic Intra-Arterial Chemotherapy
About 140,000 people in the United States were diagnosed with colon
or rectal cancer in 1996, and 40% of those patients will ultimately die
of metastasis from that disease.[1] The liver is the dominant metastatic
site in the majority of these patients, and more than 80% of patients with
hepatic metastases succumb to liver failure.[2]
Despite the fact that metastatic colorectal cancer is usually a systemic
disease, in some patients, the liver is the only site of metastasis. This
is evidenced by the fact that, with careful patient selection, resection
of isolated hepatic metastases can result in long-term disease-free survival.
For example, resection of up to three colorectal cancer lesions in patients
without evidence of extrahepatic colorectal tumor leads to a 5-year survival
of approximately 25%.[3,4]
The incorporation of intraoperative ultrasound of the liver into the
staging evaluation, as well as the application of prognostic factors, such
as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), lesion size, and stage of the primary
tumor, may permit the identification of a group of patients who would enjoy
an even better survival.[5] Unfortunately, although about one-third of
patients with hepatic metastases appear to have liver-only tumor, in no
more than 10% of these patients is the tumor amenable to curative hepatic
The regional delivery of chemotherapy to patients with liver tumors
is not a new concept. Even though colorectal metastases appear to migrate
to the liver via the portal vein, macrometastases in the liver derive more
than 80% of their blood supply from the hepatic arterial circulation; in
contrast, normal hepatocytes are supplied primarily by the portal circulation.
Therefore, the administration of chemotherapy into the hepatic artery allows
for the selective delivery of drug to the tumor with relative sparing of
normal hepatocytes.[6] The pharmacology behind this strategy is well-defined[7]:
depending on a drug's clearance and toxicity profile, a marked increase
in the area under the curve (AUC) may be achieved. If a dose-response relationship
for that drug and that disease exists, this could then translate into proportionally
greater efficacy.
The regional behavior of colorectal cancer metastatic to the liver and
favorable drug pharmacokinetics led to extensive clinical investigation
of hepatic intra-arterial (HIA) chemotherapy in the 1970s and '80s, initially
via percutaneously placed catheters. The introduction of a totally implantable
pump system made this an ambulatory treatment. Encouraging, if not inflated,
response rates ranging from 29%[8] to 88%[9] were reported and engendered
numerous randomized protocols comparing systemic vs HIA chemotherapy. Despite
these studies, the optimal dosing and role of HIA therapy in the management
of colorectal liver metastases remain unclear.
This review will summarize and critique the randomized studies and will
address the technologic and surgical advances that have now better defined
the technique necessary for the safe, successful administration of HIA
chemotherapy. A series of phase II trials will be reviewed, and the design
of a Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) randomized study assessing this
modality will be described. Although the focus of this review is on liver
metastases from colorectal cancer, a brief description of HIA therapy in
other malignancies will also be presented.
HIA Chemotherapy
in Untreated Patients
Results of Randomized Trials
Four major prospective trials comparing systemic fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy
vs HIA floxuridine (FUDR) chemotherapy delivered via the implanted pump
in untreated patients with liver-only colorectal metastases were completed
in the early 1980s (Table 1).[10-13]
In all, 375 patients were enrolled in these randomized studies. In each
study, the response rate to HIA chemotherapy was superior to the systemic
counterpart. However, in none of the studies did this translate into a
survival improvement for the HIA approach.
Two European trials conducted during the late 1980s randomly assigned
patients to either best supportive care or HIA FUDR. The studies of Rougier
et al[14] and Allen-Mersh et al[15] both demonstrated a survival advantage
of HIA therapy, but most of the control patients did not receive systemic
chemotherapy, raising the concern that these patients, at least by American
standards, received suboptimal treatment.
The latter study,[15] done in the United Kingdom, was conducted with
particularly rigorous quality control: Every pump was implanted by the
same surgeon (Allen-Mersh). A thorough quality-of-life analysis, administered
by dedicated nurses, demonstrated a prolongation of normal-quality survival,
with respect to physical symptoms, anxiety, and depression, in patients
treated with HIA chemotherapy, as compared with those given best supportive
The data of all of these trials have been subjected to two different
meta-analyses. Each meta-analysis confirmed the trends that were apparent
in the individual studies; namely, that response rates were greater with
HIA therapy. However, although there was a trend toward an improvement
in survival, only when the patients enrolled on the no-treatment control
arms were included did the difference reach statistical significance.[16,17]
Why would the substantial improvement in response rate not translate
into a survival advantage? There are numerous possible explanations for
- Colorectal cancer is a systemic disease, and thus, even effective
regional chemotherapy to liver metastases does not alter patient survival.
Although colorectal cancer metastatic to the liver is usually a systemic
disease, as noted above, selected patients with isolated liver metastases
from colorectal cancer can be cured with hepatic resection.[3]
Also, most patients with unresectable liver metastases die of progressive
liver dysfunction,[2] and even with effective management of liver metastases,
most patients treated with HIA chemotherapy in these studies die from advancing
liver involvement.[17] Therefore, the argument that systemic therapy is
needed is not necessarily supported by the facts.
- Hepatobiliary toxicity, including biliary sclerosis, led to the
cessation of therapy in many patients.
Without question, the dose of FUDR in most of the studies--.3 mg/kg/d
for 14 days--was too high. This was not appreciated until many patients
suffered permanent biliary damage.[18] Therefore, the HIA therapy was overly
toxic, and nearly half of the patients stopped treatment for that reason
rather than for treatment failure.
- Surgical complications, including catheter dislodgment and gastrointestinal
misperfusion (ie, inadvertent administration of chemotherapy to the stomach
or duodenum), made this a very difficult therapy to deliver safely.
Reflecting the experience of the operating surgeon[19] and the infancy
of the technique,[20] surgical complications in these studies were prohibitive.
For example, of 33 patients randomized to HIA therapy in the Mayo Clinic
study,[13] HIA treatment was never begun in 5 patients because of surgical
complications, was prematurely discontinued in another 5 because of later
problems, and was abrogated in 4 others because of gastrointestinal misperfusion.
- Crossover of patients from systemic to HIA therapy may have masked
a survival advantage.
This may have confounded the findings of the two largest studies,[10,11]
since there is evidence that fluoropyrimidine-based HIA chemotherapy produces
a response rate better than 30% in previously treated patients.[17,21]
The results of these trials led to one of two interpretations: either
the therapy was not worth pursuing or needed to be improved markedly to
make it worthwhile. Focusing on potential areas of improvement, investigators
concentrated on patients without radiographic evidence of extrahepatic
tumor and pursued two avenues: (1) standardizing the surgical technique
of pump placement and (2) optimizing the delivery of chemotherapy from
the standpoint of toxicity and response.

HEAR HEAR to Paul Malone, who claims (''When perceptions don't add up'', January 20, p17), supported by International Monetary Fund research, that the popular conception of the Coalition as superior economic managers is a myth and that the Howard-Costello government was the most profligate in the country's history.
Howard was the most incompetent treasurer since federation. A relatively trivial manifestation of this is given by what the press gallery dubbed ''the telephone book''. In Howard's last days as treasurer he required then commissioner of taxation Bill O'Reilly to provide documentation of Howard's measures to combat flagrant tax evasion. Neither Howard nor his office examined the large sheaf of documents provided before tabling what turned out to be a damning indictment of Howard sitting on his hands for nearly three years in the face of repeated minutes from O'Reilly pleading for a stop to the plundering of federal revenue which was occurring.
Of course there was a political reason for this. The Liberal Party had to persuade several of its luminaries, particularly in Melbourne to disengage themselves from the tax evasion industry, of which they were active promoters.
The Howard government should have produced a series of very substantial surpluses. They had the advantage of a booming economy boosted predominantly by two factors, the resources boom and the benefits of the Hawke/Keating economic reforms.
Instead of delivering healthy surpluses or major infrastructure upgrades Howard delivered results which at best could be described as miserable, due in no small part to his disgraceful pork-barrel spending. Hence the IMF's finding of profligacy.

Problem out of control
IT IS heartening to see that some indigenous NRL footballers will be shortly taking a lot of aboriginal kids on camps to teach them about the culture and customs of their people. It is not so heartening to see that while Aborigines consist of 4 per cent of the Australian population they are 38 per cent of the prison population.
In the ACT the proportion of aboriginal prisoners has risen from 12 per cent to 13.6 per cent over the past 12 months (''A problem kept locked away'', January 13, p17). Aboriginal elders and supreme court judges complain that the situation is virtually out of control and the problem needs to be solved.
Obviously it does, although we are covering ground previously argued about and have spent millions of dollars trying to remedy, with little, or no positive results.
Anthony Hopkins of the University of Canberra says the ACT has ''one of the highest aboriginal incarceration rates per capita'' and ''the ACT government should put more weight on Aboriginality in pre-sentencing reports.''
I disagree, and think that if Aboriginal children were taught about the customs and culture of the white population, which is 96 per cent of the population, and instructed that they have to abide by these customs and laws, maybe they would be more respectful of the law and fewer people would end up in trouble.
While it is good to teach them about their culture, it is not really helping them in today's society and does nothing to teach them about being accepted as an equal in the total population. It makes much more sense to teach them about the rights and wrongs in our modern legal systems and what the punishments are going to be if they do not abide by the laws which apply to all Australians. Simply, if they are told of the laws and then continue to break them, it is their own fault. The present legal system is here to stay. It is not going to change for them or any other special group. The sooner it is drilled into them and they learn to accept that it is here to stay, the better off they will be in the future.
In fact it may give them some chance at a successful future, rather than remaining in the sad situation where they find themselves.

Re cyclists
I COULD not agree more with Jane Caro's article on shared pathways (''Solo riders' quest for speed adds element of fear to morning walk'', January 13, p2). When a cyclist is courteous and alerts me of his/her imminent passing, I say ''thank you''; yet when the inconsiderate and arrogant brigade can not be bothered to alert you of their approach from behind, I say ''THANK YOU'' as loud as I can. It most likely makes no difference to them, but gives me some satisfaction; or maybe it just expresses my indignation.

Their famine, our feast
BRENDAN COX (Letters, January 20) informatively expands historically and horticulturally, on Jack Waterford's article ''One up for us couch potatoes'', citing benefits and curses accruing from Sir Walter Raleigh's American ''gift'' to Ireland (January 13, p19).
As Cox alludes, famine's history is replete with victim-blaming sophistry. While beef, wheat and dairy was produced aplenty, it was expropriated to pay the rack-rents demanded by absentee landlords who herded families unto ever diminishing subsistence plots of earth's surface, called ''conacre'' or ''spade-land''. These idle and feckless, questionably human, people with a propensity for fecundity, clung to the spud on which hung their very existence, as the Great Famine tragically illustrated.
Out of the tragedy of the Diaspora a proud tradition transpired of a people who took, to a welcoming global family, themselves, their music, dance, literature, culture, superstitions, mythology and reforming spirit.
At home, a brave people, having endured the yoke of tyranny for generations, rose up to put the first crack in the Empire on which ''the sun never set''. All on the strength of the humble spud.
Albert M. White, Queanbeyan
Myth, or hit?
PAUL MALONE reported that the historical perception of the Liberal-Nationals' economic management superiority was false (''When perceptions don't add up'', January 20, p17). He based this on an independent study by four researchers from the International Monetary Fund. That study does not measure management of the economy. It is titled, A Modern History of Fiscal Prudence and Profligacy.
Fiscal means public revenue. The study measures the management of government budgets. It is a theoretical analysis of the cause of sovereign debt and debt defaults, essentially an index of missed opportunities. Malone considers significant its identification of Howard's 2003 and 2005-07 budgets as Australia's most wasteful. The Coalition, despite its budgetary wastefulness, somehow presided over appreciable GDP increases in those years.
The average percentage GDP increase for the 12 years of Coalition government under Howard is 3.01. Labor has averaged 1.31 over five years.
The GDP data takes no account of the global context. That does not mean Labor is the better manager. It only means that Malone's argument is meaningless. The IMF argument was a ruse to establish the perception that a budget surplus is relevant to assessment of economic management and thus of its fitness to govern. The only relevance of a budget excess to the assessment of Gillard's Labor government regards its credibility.

Related tests and treatments:
The Bonnie Lynn Mechanic Celiac Disease Clinic at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin offers a comprehensive celiac management program. The clinic is led by Grzegorz W. Telega, MD, a well-known expert in celiac disease. Our interdisciplinary team includes a pediatric gastroenterologist, nurse and dietitian who specialize in treating this condition and who will work together to ensure your child gets the best care possible.
If the doctor suspects celiac disease based on your child's medical history and symptoms, he or she may use the following tests to confirm the diagnosis:
If your child is diagnosed with celiac disease, we'll help you learn to manage this condition. Our dietician will sit down with you for an intensive, three-hour meeting that will cover everything from how to read food labels to how to cook gluten-free to how to handle eating at a party. We'll meet again two or three months later for a trouble-shooting visit, and then we'll continue to assess your child annually to ensure that everything is going well and that your child hasn't developed any nutritional deficiencies.
Some children and families struggle with the lifestyle changes required by celiac disease. If your child is having trouble adhering to the diet or is depressed or anxious as a result, we may refer your child to a psychologist for cognitive behavior therapy.

This is down to the fact that liposuction is a process that only removes fat. Additionally , liposuction in these circumstances can essentially aggravate the problem by removing the foundation that the skin rests, i. Liposuction to the intestinal area is more acceptable in cases of younger patients with firm, taut intestinal skin whose main problem is additional fat. Stomach tucks are generally undertaken by girls that have lost a large amount of weight or who've had kids. Do not forget to make certain you select a gut reduction surgeon who is moral, pro and has a superb reputation.
Gut Reduction Plastic Surgery Process.
If you're only getting a partial abdominoplasty it'll potentially only take between 1 to 2 hours. Tummy tuck. Another cut is then made to get rid of the belly button from the first tissue to place it back following the surgery is complete. This can make a more toned and outlined waist. The skin is then pulled down to the area of the original incision, sown together and excess skin is surgically removed. The 1st couple days after an abdominoplasty are the most agonizing because this is the time when there's the most tenderness and swelling. It is extremely important not to bug the stitches and sutures in this time. Suggestions for the Right Plastic Surgery Folk are going for plastic surgery to get that last correction in their body parts and augment their self confidence. To meet this demand, there are several products around as well as surgical techniques. There are 2 cotton knit bras in this kit that are designed to maximise the healing benefits as they compress steadily over the course of recovery. One can get these stretchmarks in any bit of the body and happen generally due to some fast change in the body as for instance pregnancy, unexpected weight gain or loss and expansion as seen in adolesence. These stretchmarks is also seen in sportsmen and muscle builders. Nonetheless if you're not particularly interested in this strategy, then there are some other non invasive strategies including exercise.
After around 5 to 7 days the doctor will take away the stitches and the patient must wear a specifically designed support garment to guarantee correct healing. Reverting to normal life after this surgery takes more time.
Laser Body Sculpture.
Biodermis Biodermis is a medical silicon sheet that helps to reduce the scale of the scar, together with thickness, height and colour. The varied scars that the sheet may be used include post-surgery scars, hypertrophic scars and scars that are formed because of injury, burns or injury.
No question about it, those stretch-marks can lower ones self-confidence. Mum Stomach This condition is seen in girls that have just given birth to a baby. The unattractive looking pouch appears after carrying a child as the muscles of the stomach expands for accommodating the baby that leads the muscles in the stomach to grow. To get rid of this pouch, one can try out surgical strategies like gut reduction. Laser body sculpting is a new term used to explain fat removal and skin tightening achieved with the new laser liposuction strategy. With the advent and popularization of liposuction, the term body sculpting or liposculpture was employed to explain the employment of liposuction to boost body contour with the usage of liposuction in opposition to medical procedures which needed skin removal. The new laser liposuction and body sculpting technology liquifies fat and tightens skin with far less shock than normal liposuction. The new laser body sculpting and fat removal system uses a small laser fiber, far smaller than a liposuction cannula, to melt fat and tighten skin simultaneously. The result's a way more refined skin appearance, the skin is tighter and smooth without marks and contour disfigurements. Laser body sculpting with this advanced technology is possible on the neck, waist, stomach, legs, hips, bum, arms, and other body areas where excess blubber and loose skin is worrying you. Are only starting to be realized, and the future guarantees revolutionary new findings. Tummy tuck

Is there a list of dietary supplements/substances banned by the military?— published: 12-23-2014
Lately, HPRC has been receiving a lot of questions about the use of banned supplements in the military, but the fact is: There isn't a list of banned dietary supplements currently available. It isn't always easy to determine whether a dietary supplement product is safe or not, so the Department of Defense (DoD), together with HPRC, provides helpful resources on the Operation Supplement Safety (OPSS) website to help you choose supplements wisely. With regard to the military's stance on supplements in general, please see the OPSS FAQ about a "banned list," which is pertinent to all service branches.
Some dietary supplements, including ones sold on military installations, contain potentially harmful and problematic ingredients. For some tips about how to avoid these, read the OPSS infosheet "Red Flags—What You Need to Know." In addition, some other potentially dangerous ingredients include prescription drug ingredients and their analogs, drugs banned by FDA for safety reasons, controlled substances (such as anabolic steroids), and untested/unstudied new active drug ingredients, which may not be listed on the product label.
One way to ensure that a dietary supplement product is safe is to see if it is third-party verified. Third-party certification organizations have developed criteria for evaluating and authenticating the quality of a supplement—the ingredients, the dosage levels, the level of contaminants, the label claims, and whether the manufacturing facilities follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database (NMCD) is the gold standard for evidence-based information on dietary supplement products and ingredients and is an HPRC partner. (Subscription is free if you have a ".mil" email address; visit the OPSS FAQ for more information.) NMCD rates products on a scale of 1 to 10 based on safety and effectiveness. We encourage you to consider only using products rated 8 or above.
To avoid potential problems, talk with your healthcare provider or dietitian before using dietary supplements. Also, see FDA's list of tainted bodybuilding products, which includes important public notifications.

EXCLUSIVE: I'm told that Miramax transaction between owner Disney and soon-to-be new owners, construction magnate Ron Tutor and Tom Barrack's Santa Monica-based Colony Capital (led by former Disney CFO Richard Nanula), won't be finalized until the end of the year or soon after because of "strictly logistical reasons". ("Standard practice in a deal of this magnitude," one insider tells me.) As a result, it has impacted two movies: The Debt, which was supposed to be released on December 29th, and Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark the end of January. Now both pics are postponed until parent company Filmyard, which is what Tutor and Barrack are calling their new film company umbrella over Miramax, takes over. No new dates have been set.
Lagging Miramax Deal Delays Two Films
7 Comments
Wonder if this will lead to an almost year-long delay for The Debt so it can open during the following year's Oscar season?
Shame. Saw THE DEBT in Toronto and it's a good adult drama/thriller. Great performances, slick look. Real shame.
"Strictly logistical reasons"? "Standard practice in a deal of this magnitude"? Give me a break. Either the necessary amount of equity has not been secured, or the necessary amount of debt has not been secured, or both.
I've heard good things about "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark," but it's starting to get a weird stink online about it a'la George Christy and his SAG dealings as a web journalist has an associate producer credit on it and has been endlessly shilling it on his movie site Chud.com for over a year. It probably would have been wise to cut him loose!
i was SO excited for DBAOTD. LOOKED AMAZING!
Saw The Debt in Toronto and loved it. Very tense thriller with great performances from Mirren and Chastain especially. Someone will pick this up and make some money with it.
I am excited maybe in addition to those 2 movies, we will finally also get to see "Nailed" finished. (I am a fan of Girl Squaw 5)

Recording Studio Weiler
The recording studio in Weiler, formerly known as "Little America" of legendary producer Peter Wolf (Frank Zappa, Starship, Commodores, Santana, The Who, Earth, Wind & Fire, etc.), is a high-end recording facility in Austria designed by the renowned architects of studio bau:ton, Los Angeles. 5,300 impulse responses have been captured in two recording rooms. The 1,830 square foot (170 m²) live tracking room features acoustic wave birch paneling on its 13' ceiling. Whereas the 323 square foot (30 m²) stone room was specifically designed for drum recordings. From mixing acoustic bands to re-amping drums, this studio provides the perfect ambience for any rock, pop or jazz production.
Teldex Studio Berlin
Originally built in the 1890s as a ballroom, the famous Recording Hall has been in use for studio purposes since the 1950s. The almost alchemistic mixture of material and surface elements that gave the 4,900 square feet sound stage its unique sonic signature with a remarkable absence of resonances or flutter echoes has been captured by approx. 6,000 impulse responses. Vienna MIR PRO / MIR PRO 24 represent the lavishly sized Teldex Recording Hall in its entirety, from two different angles, providing three typical main microphone positions.
ORF Funkhaus
RoomPack 2 offers three recording studios of the "ORF Funkhaus", the public radio broadcasting building of the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation (ORF) in Vienna, built in the 1930s according to the plans of legendary architect Clemens Holzmeister. More than 13,000 individual impulse responses were captured using up to four dedicated Ambisonics multichannel microphone arrays. The impulses have been directed from up to 50 positions into the room in perfect steps of 60 degrees, plus to the floor and the ceiling.
"Grosser Sendesaal" (Grand On-Air Studio)
The Grand On-Air Studio is the largest hall at the Austrian Radio Broadcasting Center in Vienna, with a reverb time of 1.5 seconds. Being one of the oldest of its kind still in use, it was planned originally for live broadcasts in the 50s and 60s, where remarkably acoustical ideas such as the utter absence of right angles have been implemented. Despite its size, half of its floor is covered by the stage, providing ample space for a full-size symphony orchestra plus an organ at the back wall. The big fixed leather chairs for 230 people are a part of the original design to avoid any noises from the audience during live shows. Literally thousands of artists, ensembles and orchestras (many world-famous ones among them) have recorded there until today, and public concerts take place several times a week.
Vienna MIR PRO / MIR PRO 24 represent this wonderful, vibrant hall from four different main microphone positions - two of them on the stage, two in the auditory.
"Studio 2"
On the map, Studio 2 and 3 are almost identical concerning size, but they couldn't be more different acoustically. In the 1970s, "Studio 2" was equipped with absorbers (mainly on the ceiling) for the purpose of a multitude of big band recordings at that time, resulting in an unbelievably "dry" soundstage with a reverb time of 0.5 seconds. For a decade it was the recording room of the "ORF Broadcast Big Band" and is still a sought-after recording room when it comes to contemporary music, with a demand on an extremely precise sound localization.
Vienna MIR RoomPack 2 captures the whole room from three different main microphone positions: Two positions regard the studio as a stage, while the third one offers a listening perspective from the affiliated control room, for more depth.
"Studio 3"
This recording room of the same size as the "Studio 2" offers a medium reverb time of approximately 0.8 seconds. It is a versatile recording venue for all kinds of instrumentations and styles of music.
**Please note, MIR RoomPacks are designed to work with the Vienna MIR PRO 24 and the MIR PRO Multi-impulse response convolution engines (both sold separately).**

Nicole Shirley '12
alumni profile
The ideal at Boston College of "men and women for others" resonated profoundly with Nicole Shirley '12, and the focus on service and community was a value that greatly influenced her academic and personal growth.
Nicole chose the communication major because "it was the perfect nexus between the social sciences and the humanities, cultivating my understanding of human behavior while honing in on the art of rhetoric and persuasion." She advises current students to get to know their professors and states that they are an underutilized resource in and out of the classroom.
Nicole is currently employed in the Marketing Management Development Program at L'Oreal, and she credits her studies in the communication major with helping her "to develop a provocative argument supported by research and data, to carefully dissect and analyze information, to examine a cultural trend from various angles and perspectives and to challenge the status quo."

Your Thoughts on Halo 5 ?Loading editor
- View all 5 replies
Honestly hated everything about it at launch, by far the worst Halo game ever. The fact that for Arena they had only 4 Modes and 5 completely new maps (Not counting remakes, remixes or Forged maps) at launch, which by Halo standards is absolutely appalling. The Warzone Assault gamemode is a really bad rip-off of Invasion from Halo: Reach wtih no buddy spawn system and shitty recycled maps from the dedicated Warzone maps. The game was missing way to much at launch like, Forge, King of the Hill, Big Team Battle, Infection, Assault, Griffball, Oddball, the Gravity Hammer, Social Playlists, the MARK V armour and good Emblem customisation (All that I can think of right now).
At it's launch state, the game was about a 4/10 but with all the updates they've brought out that gives us most of what we used to have in almost every Halo game, the game get's notched up to a 5/10 at the moment, however with the next 4 updates to be released (One of which includes the return of Firefight as part of the Warzone selection of gamemodes), I expect the game to be a 6/10 once all of the updates are finally out.
What holds it back from being higher is the really lazy map designs with them trying to push same maps but visually different and the Forge maps onto us as though they are brand new maps. The same goes with the Warzone Assault maps, just really bad and slightly altered versions of the standard Warzone maps (I really hope we don't get maps built the same way for Firefight). Not to mention the way they're expecting the community to make maps that will get thrown into their playlists, note that 343I haven't even made a single original Big Team Battle map. They have no excuse for providing us with such few original maps.
The campaign is another thing that drags the games raiting down for me, having the game me marketed as though the Chief and Locke were going to have an epic battle with the game being focused on that and why Chief went "rouge" and we didn't get that at all. I hated how they talked up how the campaign was going to be long (8-12 Hours they said on Normal Based on average results of user research testing) and have 15 missions, 3 of which have no combat at all!, and I managed to finish it on Legendary within 6 hours (I just checked my completion time on Solo Legendary for each mission on Waypoint which added to to 5:48:48), you can only play as the Chief in 3 missions! Not to mention how they recycled the same Boss (The Warden Eternal) over and over again, I understand the lore makes it possible but just look at how Halo 2 managed boss battles, compare that to this and it's a massive joke.
But the biggest damage to the rating and quality of this game is done here, with it's reliance online and the micro transactions (REQ Packs). There is absolutely no split-screen or LAN support which means Co-Op campaign and custom games have to be done online (Note you can't even start up a custom game while disconected from the internet), Forge is also not accessible while offline, even when connected you have to have Gold Membership (Which you didn't need in all 4 previous versions of Forge). But the whole REQ system has no place in Halo, people may argue and say "At least earning REQ points isn't that hard and we aren't forced to paying" but in Halo: Reach which had in-game currency, we could actually buy the armour we wanted, not be forced to open a REQ Pack for a CHANCE to get what we desired. Not to mention they have very few sets of armour that you can actually earn (Nightfall, MARK VI [GEN1], MARK VI [GEN1] Scarred and Helioskrill), also not that Heloskrill has now lost all it's value due to them adding the Heloskrill Bloodgorger and Warbound armours with the Hammer Storm update. I should also like to mention that I have played almost 2 full weeks of Halo 5 multilayer and I am still 200,000 REQ points (20 Gold Packs) away from obtaining all the REQs possible in Packs, which is too much to ask of the majority of Halo fans and navigating over 200 different helmets to find the one you want is a pain in the arse.
Overall I feel like Halo 5 is a massive step in the wrong direction compared to Halo 4, the biggest and most improved on thing would easily be the Forge. They could still improve Halo 5 in many other areas and sort out many of the things that weigh the game down, however micro transactions won't go away and I don't blame 343I for that, the whole micro transaction thing is Microsofts doing). All I will say is the 4 updates we have got since launch have improved the game a bit, hopefully the next 4 will do the same. Sorry for the massive reply, you asked, I told. What do you think about Halo 5?Loading editor
Honetly I Don't like the core Gameplay to me it feels as if i am playing Call of Duty or somthing, Its Far to easy to Kill someone and all this fast paced jumping and climbing just does not feel like "Halo" And Honetly the poor launch really killed it for me aswell, Forge Should of been a day one thing with all the other game modes I can not understand why 343i did not have it day one, In my honest opinion I rather Play Halo 4 then "Halo" 5 becuase dispite all of 4's issues it still played like halo and had most of the gametypes we all know and love. Do not get me started on story... Oh how I have always hated Cortana and know they bring her back from the dead rendering Halo 4's Story kinda pointless.. In short I agree with you on Halo 5 being a massive step in the wrong direction but in all honesty i do not think it can recover.. sorry for all the Errors I wrote this up in a pinch, I didnt touch the whole REQ thing due to me agreeing with you on that. Also If you Have Skype add me on it.Loading editor
Glad I'm not the only one that has a problem with all of that, as for Skype, I never use it anymore. =/Loading editor
Ah Well shit, And It seems a large majority of the halo community does not realize how far 343i has fallen though i suppose thats due to them joining late in the series.. Its so rare to find someone from the halo 3 days now..Loading editor
I agree, I feel like Microsoft are forcing most of these changes to appeal to the massive player base of CoD and Battlefield, just look at Denial eSports and their CoD player team. I'm deffiantly not getting Halo 6 at launch if 343 don't make drastic changed like bringing pack LAN and Split-screen support and so on...Loading editor

Hi MrTeaNCrumpets,
I've been a member of Wikia for over a year and I thought I was knowlegable enough to creat a wiki for a friend to help keep his story/book he was working on organized. For the life of me I can not figure out how to create a template, I've looked everywhere, watched all the tutorials, looked at the help pages, I still can't find it. Could you teach me the way?
ThanksLoading editor
Yea, learning how to make Templates can me a bitch. I'm afraid I can't help you there, I've too many things going on in life at the moment. Sorry mate, I hope you learn soon. Peace.Loading editor
Alright, I understand, thanks anyways.Loading editor

And why exactly are the Necrus and the Necrus-Forerunner war candidates for deletion?Loading editor

Refer to the Page Policy.Loading editor
Which point?Loading editor
What point? All your pages must keep within the rules. I'll give you a full week to updated your pages that don't.Loading editor
Seems to me both pages fit within all points. I'm not likely to fix those pages though, since, apparently the more famous wikis do accept me now.Loading editor
I never said they would be deleted, actually read the template "If you disagree with its deletion, please explain why at Category talk:Candidates for deletion or improve the page in keeping with thePage Policy and remove the {{delete}} tag.". If you don't fix the others within a week, I'll be forced to delete them.Loading editor
You clearly didn't as it says "Improve the page in keeping with the Page Policy and remove the {{delete}} tag (The Candidate for Deletion template)". As for your other pages, I did read that but it is not my problem, all I can do is inform you.Loading editor
I'm not taking it as my problem either with this tone. Do remember that you are deleting not one, but 3 people their additions, since it's me, Johnythe and Alex Lioce's universe. After all you didn't read my post very well either.Loading editor
You're the head of the unvierse and all pages in it, don't take me for a idiot. The universe and pages part of it are overseen by you, it's your resposability to make sure those pages all fall within the rules. Before you say I'm not reading your responses, I am and judging by your attitude you couldn't give two shits about any of the pages, if you want I can remove them all for you so you have no problem, just give me the word.Loading editor
Doesn't seem like you read my responses very well, to be honest. How exactly is it my responability to keep Johny's and Alex' pages within the rules? They wrote it, after all. I know it's my universe and I'm the head of it, but their additions aren't for me to oversee. Only the universe it's self.Loading editor
I do read what you post, I'm getting sick of your attitude. It's your responsibility because it's YOUR universe, also note how I didn't say I would delete any page that wasn't made by you. Fucking read things over, don't fly though them.
Now I'm done with this, I've made everything very clear, if you can't understand that, then that is your problem, not mine.Loading editor
It's not my attitude which started bad, "You clearly didn't as it says Improve the page in keeping with the Page Policy and remove the {{delete}} tag (The Candidate for Deletion template)". See, the only reason I act unrespectful is because you started with that.Loading editor
Loading editor
Since I've been away for a while, seems like some changes have been made. Mind filling me in on the details?Loading editor
There hasn't been too many changes besides the Theme being completely changed, I figured it was time to have something that related to the Halo universe more. All the Templates will be changed to match the new themes colour scheme in due time so be patient.
If you haven't done already, read over the Page Policy to protect your work from deletion.Loading editor
Ahh thank you.Loading editor

Hey, I'm thinking about doing some stuff on this wiki, seeing as it doesn't seem to be as strict as the Halo Fanon wiki, but I can't find the rules. Can you give me a link?Loading editor

It's even worse than that with -xtmixed. Should this list be just for all possible combinations of variables in the fixed part only, or should it also include all possible predictors in each level of the random part, with the various possible covariance structures? (Of course most of these would never converge). In many applications of -xtmixed- one would want to consider random slopes for at least some of the predictors in the fixed part.

Subject: st: RE: allpossible & xtmixed
The short answer is No.
Here is a longer answer.
1. Please remember to explain where user-written programs you refer to come from. Why is this apparently so difficult to understand and to implement? Not paying attention makes your questions unnecessarily difficult for others to understand. You oblige people, if your question sounds interesting to them, to do some work to find out what on earth -allpossible- is. It is much easier just to explain and make your question more friendly.
Please remember: Statalist is a discussion list, not a help line. Postings that are hard to understand are antisocial.
2. The help for -allpossible- (SSC) starts by explaining
"-allpossible- by default (1) computes all possible models fitted by modelcmd to response depvar and subsets of up to 6 predictors from varlist and (2) tabulates various
summary statistics for each model fitted. Alternatively, (1') the maximum number of predictors fitted may be specified as a number less than 6 by the npmax() option."
As 26 > 6, there is no scope for do what you want with -allpossible-. Whether -allpossible- understands -xtmixed- is immaterial.
3. -tuples- from SSC gives you ways of cycling over subsets.
4. With 26 predictors, you have 2^26 - 1 = 67108863 possible models, just on the basis of whether predictors are in or out (without reference to interactions). The combinatorics here are against you.
Dennis Kramer
Does --allpossible-- support --xtmixed--? I am trying to run an
xtmixed model with the possible combination of 26 variables.

Jul 14, 2010 - Soooo glad I read the reviews here--Sean is AMAZING!! Not only did he take the time to "play" around with my hair to get familiar with it, but he also knows all about the CG method, which is really great. Not only did Sean give me a fab haircut, but he also did a wonderful color which looks great! Sean is also very friendly-as is the rest of the salon staff-I felt really welcomed there (some salons I've been to around here are kind of snobby and rude, but not this salon!)...definitely have found my stylist :)
