If you thought it's only businesses who can claim input tax, you're wrong. Municipalities are also allowed to claim Vat for certain transactions.
So if you handle your municipality's Vat affairs, be sure to claim Vat for these expenses.
Save your municipality some money by claiming Vat on these four transactions
Remember, if you want to claim Vat, you must have a valid tax invoice.
Knowing the four Vat claims you're allowed to make will help ensure you get some money back for your municipality.

Ratings for Dr. Richard Tipperman
April 27, 2017 I recently had my pre-op evaluation by Dr. Tipperman. Being in medical profession, I can easily see the difference in the services his office provides. Besides being a gentleman, he is intelligent and thorough; he listens to patients' questions/concerns and answers them all without rushing you out. His staff is also very helpful and well organized. I am going to have my cataract operation soon and have full confidence in Dr. Tipperman. Kishan Agarwal
Have only one eye and needed cataract surgery. So I went to the best. I can see again. Thank you Dr. Tipperman and staff.
Dr. Tipperman and his staff were very pleasant and personable. I felt very comfortable asking any questions I had and they gave me straight forward answers. I absolutely recommend anyone with eye injuries or problems contact him and his staff.
Dr. Tipperman is a truly exceptional surgeon. I had cataract surgery and the incision was perfect. No pain or swelling, not even any noticeable discharge. Vision is perfect. The first review is correct, this guy is a genius. His staff is excellent as well, and the pre-op and post-op instructions are clear.
Came to Dr. Tipperman after a NY doctor botched my cataract surgery. I thought I was going blind. Dr. Tipperman undone damage the NY doctor did, performed a perfect cataract surgery using the newest state of the art technology, and now I can see again. Dr. Tipperman is a true genius. I am honored to have him as my doctor.
Surgery experience was ideal. Felt at ease before and during and vision was improved immediately after surgery.
I had my first appointment with Dr. Tipperman recently and was very impressed. He appears very patient-focused and knowledgeable. I am actually looking forward to his removing a cataract.
Dr. Tipperman was highly recommended by a friend, and I could not agree more. He is not only one of the top leaders in his field but is also very warm, patient, and helpful. He also is conservative and doesn't push any type of lens as he does not have any contracts for commissions. Really the best!!!
9/2/13 Love Dr. Tipperman. I liked him from the very first time meeting with him at his offce. I was a little anxious the day of my surgery but he has such a calming manner about him that I soon felt again that I was in very good hands. The procedure was so quick that I was in & out of the facility in no time at all. I now look forward to getting the other eye done & I am so thankful to Dr. Tipperman for letting me see the world around me again perfectly. May I also add that Dr. Tipperman's staff is also wonderful to deal with & that makes a patient feel very confident that they have made the right choice in doctors. Thank you Dr. Tipperman.
Dr. Richard Tipperman was recommended to me by another well established eye surgeon. I had excellent results with cataract surgery he performed on both my left and right eyes. Although I was initially an anxious patient, the more excellent service I received from Dr. Tipperman and his staff, the better I felt about undergoing surgery. They were conscientious about details of my examinations and very kind and patient. When I left his office at Main Line Surgery Center, I felt gratitude for the work Dr. Tipperman and his staff do to improve the vision of many people.

Seasons After Fall (PC) Review
It's not a secret that I enjoy a game that has a certain element of whimsy to it. After games like Ori and the Blind Forest and Unravel released, I find myself drawn to the unique platformers. When given the opportunity to review Seasons After Fall from developer Swing Swing Submarine, I got a little giddy. The art style of Seasons gave me a sense that I was going to go on a great adventure that would take me to magical places, and give me a purpose to complete the narrative.
I was half right.
Seasons After Fall is a 2D puzzle platformer that is set in a world of magic and sage-like creatures that will be a sight to behold for the first couple of hours. You start the story as a "seed". You are guided by a very childlike voice to venture off and possess a local wildlife creature that ultimately has you entering a fox. Using your new, four-legged body, you set on an adventure to find four guardians to obtain a piece of each of the seasons that come in the form of an orb. When you eventually merge with them, you will be able to obtain that season and summon it on command. Using these new powers, it will allow you to traverse through the woods easier to find the next guardian, and so on.
Obstacles play the biggest role in Seasons After Fall as you have to experiment with changing the seasons to solve puzzles. One example is that there will be multiple times you will fall in water, but you won't be able to hop onto a platform, but simply changing the season to winter freezes the water and allows you to walk on it so be able to reach said platform. The fall season allows for huge mushrooms to develop fully that will use as platforms to get to the other side. The spring season will give you the ability to make plants grow, and so on. These are a few basic uses, but there are more complex uses for these powers as the game goes on.
There is no real risk involved playing Seasons as there is no way to lose a life, or even get stuck in the world. The developers did an excellent job of making the game not as frustrating as it could have been. Having said that, there is not a huge challenge component to game. You can easily obtain the four season powers within a couple of hours, and the rest of Seasons is geared for more exploration as well as using the trial and error method.
There is no question that Seasons After Fall is a beautifully rendered game with equally lovely color palettes that change depending what season you invoke. From the blues/purples of winter to the orange/yellows of fall are a sight to be sure, and the developers should be commended for their art work. While the colors are a highlight, so are the game animations of the fox, and the other creatures you encounter along the way. The opening cut scene gave us a hand drawn, and hand painted look that I would have liked to see a bit more of, but with the vibrancy of the actual environments it probably wouldn't have made a lot of sense to do so. Unfortunately, as I eluded to previously, that sense of awe goes away rather quickly.
The music in Seasons after Fall is another great addition to the already visually appealing title. The rustic sounds from composer Yann van der Cruyssen who emphasizes on the use violins and cellos that compliments the games surroundings. I could easily lose myself in the music being able to relate to the sounds that remind me of autumn and winter.
The unfortunate part about Seasons is that the look of the game is its selling point. For a large area that the game covers with its abundance of flora and fauna, the game is just too empty because of a plot point in the story. You get to meet a few random characters and listen to what they have to say, but there is not a lot in the way of other woodland creatures. You are mostly alone with the occasional off screen character talking to you towards the end. The gameplay tends to get repetitive as you will be switching between seasons just to pass the same obstacles in a different area. It really starts getting monotonous even with the inclusion of new game play features like being able to warp from one part of the map to the other, lining up streams of light in certain patterns to open entrances, and chasing small creatures into an area that aids in the changing of the plant life to help you get to high areas.
The story of Seasons After Fall, while a good idea, lacks any kind of dramatic moments, as I started to lose interest in it after the first couple of hours. It wasn't the fault of the writing style per se, or even the voice direction; which I had no qualms about whatsoever. It was simply due to that there was not enough of it to keep me engaged. After the first couple of hours, the story and dialogue moments are few and far between, and just wished that it was more engaging.
Seasons After Fall looks, and sounds great on the surface, but underneath it all it amounts to a lot of repeating gameplay that some may find tiresome after a while. While I do recommend playing the game overall, just don't go in expecting too much out of the story, and keep your attention on the detail of the art and music that are the games defining feature. While some of the puzzle solving can get a bit monotonous at times, there are moments that will make you feel a sense of accomplishment, but in the end, pretty scenery, and great music doesn't make up for an uninteresting story along with repetitive gameplay.

Alan Evans, father of the five-star recruit, said, "Rashaan decided not to take unofficial out there this weekend. He wants to take some days off from recruiting and try to clear his mind."
Evans took his third and final official visit to Auburn this past weekend and said he enjoyed that trip. The Auburn High School standout took an official visit to UCLA last fall and to Alabama earlier this month.
"He is still considering UCLA," Evans said. "We just felt we have seen about everything we needed to see out there. Rashaan decided to he wanted to stay and home and consider all of the things he has seen in the last year or so."
The prospect is expected to announce his decision at 10 a.m. CST at Auburn High School on Feb. 5th, which is national signing day.
Evans was a key player in his team reaching the Class 6A state championship game for the 2013 season. The Tigers fell to the Hoover Bucs in the title game played at Tuscaloosa.
Rashaan Evans helped his team win the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game played in Montgomery.
Evans was named the Most Valuable Defensive Player of the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game in December and in January was named the 6A Lineman of the Year by the Alabama Sports Writers Association.
The 6-3, 220 Evans also played in the Under Armour All-American Game.

Local Calm is one of three etching that Julie Mehretu called collectively, Heavy Weather. She began working on these prints two weeks after hurricane Katrina had devastated New Orleans as the area was bracing for another storm, already named Rita. To express the wind currents and chaotic movement of the storm, she called upon her experience crossing the Drake Passage the previous year. This stretch of ocean between Cape Horn and Antarctica, where the Atlantic and Pacific meet, has some of the worst sea weather in the world. As her boat plunged and pitched, she focused her attention on a soaring albatross that was following the ship, gliding and catching air currents, majestically indifferent to the turmoil below. She imagined herself to be the albatross, caught in the maelstrom but able to carry on as nature intended. She captures the interaction of sea and air with lines, marks, and suggestions of forms.

Animal World - Poem by john tiong chunghoo
the sun so far off
i could feel more love
from it than you
all the stars
they are waving
friendship from
a trillion miles away
and you three
feet from me
feel like in another world
the dragonflies
red tailed, hovering
in the noon field
round bulky eyes
look as if they know
my heart and are
pouring their love
into me
and you, a warm
blooded, given all
god's graces of a
creature are living
as if in a box devoid
of all emotions
and oh, the dophin
it is more human than
all of us combined

Two films at Breckenridge Festival of Film will focus on Alzheimer's disease

Location: Colorado Mountain College, 107 Dennison Placer Rd., Breckenridge
The Sum Total of Our Memory

Location: Colorado Mountain College, 107 Dennison Placer Rd., Breckenridge
Panel discussion
Acceptance, Humor, Bravery: Discover and Explore the new face of Alzheimer's
Director Barbara Klutinis of "The Sum Total of Our Memory" and Elliot Williams, producer of "Usagi-San" will answer questions and discuss their films
Date: Saturday, September 21st
Time: 3 p.m.
Location: Town Hall, 150 Ski Hill Rd, Breckenridge
Price: $10 (includes 1 entry into drawings for works from the nationally renowned photographer, John Fielder)
Alzheimer's disease, which affects more than 5 million people in the United States, is the central topic of two films that will be showing at the Breckenridge Festival of Film this month.
Despite this, the films are very different from one another. One, "The Sum Total of Our Memory" is a documentary with interviews of three couples in which one spouse is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's, and the other, "Usagi-san" is a Japanese-language film, subtitled and acted, about an elderly Japanese man dealing with his wife's decline into Alzheimer's. Both films seek to bring awareness to the disease and facilitate discussion.
A new face on an old diagnosis
"The Sum Total of Our Memory" comes from San Francisco-based filmmaker Barbara Klutinis. She has been making films since 1981 and has 12 others on her resume before "Sum Total," which is the most recent.
The idea for the film came from personal experience. In 2010, her husband was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's. While the disease more commonly strikes people in their 70s and 80s, the early-onset form can affect people as young as their 40s or 50s.
"I did not know how we were going to get through the ordeal ahead of us," she wrote in her director's statement.
The pair decided to attend an early Alzheimer's support group, which helped. Over the next few years, more and more married couples joined the group, allowing Klutinis to realize how many people were experiencing the same challenges, fears and struggles that she and her husband were.
Although she had seen films about Alzheimer's before, they had all centered around elderly patients. In her support group, she saw the chance to tell the story of couples experiencing early-onset Alzheimer's.
"With this film, I wanted to put a face on this disease that has so often been out of the public eye," Klutinis stated. "… I wanted to bring to light some of the many issues that accompany a diagnosis of Alzheimer's, both practical and emotional."
In the film, Klutinis makes a point of highlighting not only the victim's struggle in dealing with Alzheimer's, but that of the caretaker as well. Interviews feature both spouses discussing their thoughts and emotions.
Some of it is poignant.
"He has been stripped of just everyday things we take for granted," says one woman, in the movie trailer, of her husband.
"I forget words, sometimes I won't know the word. It's depressing, its' upsetting, it's frightening," says a woman diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
Instead of dwelling solely on the negative, Klutinis' film also looks at the positive aspects of how the couples cope, emphasizing how they do their best to make the most of their remaining time together through memories, activities and communication.
"I've just decided that I'm not going to let it get me; I'm going to take care of it, I'm going to fight this in any way I can," says the same woman in the film.
The previous woman finishes her discussion about her husband by saying that while before the diagnosis she would have thought dealing with Alzheimer's would be the end of the world, now she doesn't think that anymore. "I think there is life after being diagnosed with Alzheimer's."
Cynthia Gordon, vice president of the Breckenridge Festival of Film, said she thought the film presented a good message.
"I thought it was extremely effective and I think that it showed a not-so dismal side of Alzheimer's."
Early onset Alzheimer's disease has touched Gordon's family as well, in the form of her brother, Bill Graham, who was diagnosed seven years ago, at age 52, and died last fall. Her niece, Graham's daughter, Andrea Graham Richichi, described the difficult experience of dealing with her father's illness.
"I remember the day that I found out that my dad had Alzheimer's like it was yesterday," she said. She echoed the same issues as those brought up in Klutinis' film — the struggle with mental deterioration, the emotional toll, the importance of making the most of the time that's left. She also supports the message of awareness.
"It's time to wake up and understand this is not just a disease for the old but also for the young and healthy."
Focusing on the caretaker's role
Caretaking is a focus of "Usagi-San," by filmmaker Patrick Dickinson. The film revolves around an elderly Japanese couple living in Los Angeles. The husband, Yoshi, struggles to help his wife, Aiko, as she descends further into mental dementia brought on by Alzheimer's. The film depicts Yoshi's plight as caretaker, emphasizing that the person suffering from Alzheimer's isn't the only victim.
Summit County resident and professional nature photographer John Fielder played the role of caretaker for his wife, Gigi, for seven years. After she was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's at age 52, Fielder and his daughters took care of her from home throughout the duration of her disease. Now, Fielder and his family are active with the Rocky Mountain Alzheimer's Association and in other awareness efforts related to the disease.
"I think people need to continue to be made aware that caregivers — the families and others who take care of Alzheimer's victims — have a major challenge because it's a difficult disease to manage and one person often tries to do it by himself or herself, a husband, a wife or another family member, and it's pretty much impossible. It seals the fate of that person, pretty much destroys any diversity in their life. Physically and mentally, it's debilitating," he said.
Fielder has donated a large, framed photograph and two copies of his photography book to be given away in a raffle that will take place after the discussion panel of the two films. He said he hopes films like the two shown at the festival will help raise awareness of Alzheimer's and the necessity to learn more about it.
"The more we talk about it, the more people are aware of it," he said. "The more we de-stigmatize it, the more investments will go into research."

Similar to last week's debacle, this latest hack is said to have included more than 20,000 credit card and bank account numbers, as well as other personal information including names, phone numbers and addresses. In a press release, Sony admitted to yet another intrusion they discovered almost 2 weeks after it had happened.
Sony Online Entertainment provides online multiplayer games to its users, but following suit with just about everything else the PlayStation Network has been forced to do, Sony shut down its SOE servers once they became aware of the intrusion.
After announcing the intrusion a day after it was discovered, to make up for the fact that Sony may have led to yet another mammoth leak of personal information, their users are getting one free month added to their subscriptions, along with compensation each day that the service remain inaccessible.
Sony is currently in the process of sending out notifications to all users whose accounts were compromised.
What do you think Sony should do to compensate its users? Let us know in the comments.

Is sony just asking for a lawsuit? I mean at this point, Sony is just begging the FCC and/or SEC to demand real answers.
stop talkin shit people, stuff happen and there's nothing we can do about it. am sorry for sony.
just say FU to microsoft and use either linux or freebsd instead :D
thats why you buy an xbox
"well reputed company"? These are the guys that installed root kits on our computers. They are certainly not well reputed in my books.
I firmly believe that SONY is already doing everything in their power to rectify this unfortunate situation. I have no doubt that their employees are working around the clock to be sure that this situation is corrected and that efforts are made to prevent this from ever occurring again. There's an expression, "shit happens" that I feel applies here. SONY is a great, well reputed company and it would be unfair to demand from of them.
I understand that it's impossible to completely secure any publicly accessible data store, but if any other company allowed so much of my data out of their control I'd expect some sort of compensation from them too. Add into that there are people paying for SOE subscriptions and PSN Plus subscriptions, and people who bought games on PS3 over other mediums with the intent of playing them online (*cough* Portal 2 *cough*), they definitely need to hand something to their users.
Besides, I still haven't completely forgiven them for removing the PS3's backward compatibility.
Just use the PC? I mean. I never understood what was so good about consoles.
Because I don't have a 50" monitor for my computer...
SOE develops massively multiplayer PC games such as EverQuest, EverQuest II, The Matrix Online, PlanetSide, Star Wars Galaxies, Free Realms, Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, etc. The people that got compromised in this situation WERE using PC games.

Wanted more colors. Saw the price. Bought them.
Just what I needed

This is great for a pen brush dedicated to laying in and filling in large areas of black. I use in conjunction with a pen brush dedicated to fine line work. That way you don't fatigue your more expensive fine liners.
I loved these pens!

I used these for a Mother's Day project in my class. Kids made fingerprints on a mini canvas using acyrilic paint and then added finishing details with these pens so they looked like flowers and butterflies. (An idea off of Pinterest.) Each and every one turned out beautifully. These pens were perfect and easy for the kids to use.

This was my first online purchase from DickBlick and plan on buying more online. I use to go to the store but found they wouldn't have what I wanted in stock. Considering the store is over 30 miles away I rarely get out that way. I might have had to wait for my products but worth it.
Pigmented India Ink in multiple nib sizes and 48 colors brings great versatility to
pen-and-ink drawings requiring lots of intricate details. Pitt Artist Pens are great
for sketching, journaling, cartooning, and drawing. The Superfine, Fine, Medium, and Brush nibs not
only replace ink bottles — they're instantly available for work. The ink is
waterproof, unsurpassably lightfast, acid-free, and pH-neutral. The nib
size is prominently displayed on the end of the cap.

Unbeaten Chiefs stand alone in rankings
Wed., Nov. 6, 2013
Kansas City, the only unbeaten team in the NFL, is now alone atop The Associated Press power rankings.
The Chiefs didn't exactly impress the voters in a 23-13 victory against Buffalo that included two touchdowns from the defense and none from the offense. Some panelists figure Kansas City's 9-0 record will get a test soon enough: The Chiefs, 2-14 a year ago, go to Denver after this week's bye.
"Chiefs' stunning turnaround continues with a road win on the tougher-than-expected Bills, as defense shines once more," wrote Bob Glauber of Newsday. "Now it's time for the next – and biggest – test: Two of their next three against the Broncos after they return from the bye."
Seattle fell out of a tie for the top spot in the AP Pro32 poll released Tuesday after beating winless Tampa Bay 27-24 in overtime with the biggest comeback in franchise history. The Buccaneers led the Seahawks 21-0 in the second quarter.
The Chiefs had six first-place votes and 371 points from the 12-member panel. The No. 2 Seahawks (366 points) and third-place Broncos (364) split the other six first-place votes.
Indianapolis and San Francisco moved from a tie for fifth to even for fourth at 347 points apiece.

The Huntington (WV) High standout has already been to Florida, Kentucky, Duke and was in Winston-Salem, NC., this past weekend checking out Wake Forest's campus.
The Demon Deacons haven't received much publicity for their recruiting efforts with Patrick Patterson, but they were the first school to offer Scout.com's 11th ranked player and he said they have as good as shot as anyone to gain his services.
"Oh yeah - Wake has a good chance," Patterson said Monday evening. "I really like Wake. I like the basketball team and the coaching staff. I love the campus and it's like two hours away from my family."
The 6-8, 234-pound PF arrived in Winston-Salem Thursday night and began touring the campus and hanging out with the players Friday morning.
"We had breakfast first then I went to class with Kevin (Swinton). I went to a practice and watched them practice a little bit and then toured the practice facilities. I met the football coach and met with the President."
"Then I ate at the cafeteria I got to know the players and got to talk to them. We hung out at night time and had dinner at Coach (Skip) Prosser's house and we met his family and Coach (Jeff) Battle's and other the coaches families."
Another highlight of the trip was watching Wake Forest's Black/Gold scrimmage.
"They have a pretty solid team. They have a solid big man and some great guards and wing players. They should make some noise this season."
While the Wake Forest visit went very well, the Deacs are up against some stiff competition in Kentucky, Florida, Duke and Virginia, who will get a visit from Patterson and his family this weekend.
There has been recent talk that Duke was out of the running for Patterson, but he denied it. He said his visit to Durham was a solid one.
"[Coach K] and I talked a lot and we ate dinner at his house and went out for dinner. The basketball players showed me around. Me and coach talked a lot during the visit and my family really liked him and coach Wojo, coach Collins and coach Dawkins."
Originally Patterson planned to make a decision after his official visits, but his plans have changed.
"[I'm going to] cut the list down to three or four schools then decide over my basketball season and sign in the April period. I'll probably wait it out. I won't wait till April, but I'll probably decide between January and February."
"I'll try to narrow it down to four," he said. "I'll cut one school off."
Although the Virginia visit is his last official, it likely won't be his last visit.
"I'm going to try and unofficial some of the basketball games so I'll take visits again to the colleges. I'll do some unofficials. I'll go to at least one unofficial to each school."
The recruiting process hasn't been the only thing on Patterson's mind. The basketball season is about to start and he'll be playing alongside Scout.com's highest rated player,O.J. Mayo.
"We're looking real well. I think we are ranked in the top ten and we are starting to gel together. I think we'll be real good. It won't be that much different. We are all passing and we'll share the ball. "
Patterson returns as the state's player of the year and has led Huntington to two state titles.

Sebastian and his colleagues were fantastic. They completed the required work quickly and to a very high standard. The price quoted was just right. The team turned up on time and cleaned up after themselves - leaving the area in a much better state than when they had started. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sebastian and his team, indeed we are looking for them to do further work for us, and we have recommended them widely to neighbours.
Excellent workmanship. So good in fact we have asked him to do a lot more work for us. Friendly, conscientious, clean and tidy.
Very professional in all areas and did an excellent job. They shared some good ideas about the future development of our garden along the way too. We will be using them again in the future.
Stuart worked very hard and finished the job to a high standard and a fair price. Would highly recommend
Matt did a brilliant job repointing two walls of our house at a competitive price. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again in future.

What are the long-term effects of taking heroin?
What are the treatments for heroin addiction?

a substance abuse facility for heroin?
What is heroin? (top)
Heroin is an illegal,
highly addictive drug. It is both the most abused and the most rapidly
acting of the opiates.
Where does heroin
come from? (top)
Heroin is processed
from morphine, a naturally occurring substance extracted from the
seedpod of the Asian poppy plant.
What are other names
for heroin? (top)
Street names for
heroin include "smack," "H," "skag," and "junk." Other names may refer
to types of heroin produced in a specific geographical area, such as
"Mexican black tar."
How is heroin used?
Heroin can be
injected, smoked or snorted.
What are the
short-term effects of taking heroin? (top)
Soon after injection
(or inhalation), heroin crosses the blood-brain barrier. In the brain,
heroin is converted to morphine and binds rapidly to opioid receptors.
Abusers typically report feeling a surge of pleasurable sensation - a
"rush." The intensity of the rush is a function of how much drug is
taken and how rapidly the drug enters the brain and binds to the natural
opioid receptors. Heroin is particularly addictive because it enters the
brain so rapidly. With heroin, the rush is usually accompanied by a warm
flushing of the skin, dry mouth, and a heavy feeling in the extremities,
which may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and severe itching.
After the initial
effects, abusers usually will be drowsy for several hours. Mental
function is clouded by heroin's effect on the central nervous system.
Cardiac function slows. Breathing is also severely slowed, sometimes to
the point of death. Heroin overdose is a particular risk on the street,
where the amount and purity of the drug cannot be accurately known.
What are the
long-term effects of taking heroin? (top)
One of the most
detrimental long-term effects of heroin use is addiction itself.
Addiction is a
chronic, relapsing disease, characterized by compulsive drug seeking and
use, and by neuron-chemical and molecular changes in the brain. Heroin
also produces profound degrees of tolerance and physical dependence,
which are also powerful motivating factors for compulsive use and abuse.
As with abusers of any addictive drug, heroin abusers gradually spend
more and more time and energy obtaining and using the drug. Once they
are addicted, the heroin abusers' primary purpose in life becomes
seeking and using drugs. The drugs literally change their brains and
their behavior.
dependence develops with higher doses of the drug. With physical
dependence, the body adapts to the presence of the drug and withdrawal
symptoms occur if use is reduced abruptly. Withdrawal may occur within a
few hours after the last time the drug is taken. Symptoms of withdrawal
include restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea,
vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps ("cold turkey"), and leg
movements. Major withdrawal symptoms peak between 24 and 48 hours after
the last dose of heroin and subside after about a week. However, some
people have shown persistent withdrawal signs for many months. Heroin
withdrawal is never fatal to otherwise healthy adults, but it can cause
death to the fetus of a pregnant addict.
dependence and the emergence of withdrawal symptoms were once believed
to be the key features of heroin addiction. We now know this may not be
the case entirely, since craving and relapse can occur weeks and months
after withdrawal symptoms are long gone. We also know that patients with
chronic pain who need opiates to function (sometimes over extended
periods) have few if any problems leaving opiates after their pain is
resolved by other means. This may be because the patient in pain is
simply seeking relief of pain and not the rush sought by the addict.
What are the
treatments for heroin addiction? (top)
A variety of
effective treatments are available for heroin addiction. Treatment tends
to be more effective when heroin abuse is identified early. The
treatments that follow vary depending on the individual, but
methadone, a synthetic opiate that blocks the effects of heroin and
eliminates withdrawal symptoms, has a proven record of success for
people addicted to heroin. Other pharmaceutical approaches, such as
buprenorphine, and many
behavioral therapies also are used
for treating heroin addiction. Buprenorphine is a recent addition to the
array of medications now available for treating addiction to heroin and
other opiates. This medication is different from methadone in that it
offers less risk of addiction and can be prescribed in the privacy of a
doctor's office. Buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) is a combination drug
product formulated to minimize abuse.
Methadone treatment
has been used for more than 30 years to effectively and safely treat
opioid addiction. Properly prescribed methadone is not intoxicating or
sedating, and its effects do not interfere with ordinary activities such
as driving a car. The medication is taken orally and it suppresses
narcotic withdrawal for 24 to 36 hours. Patients are able to perceive
pain and have emotional reactions. Most important, methadone relieves
the craving associated with heroin addiction; craving is a major reason
for relapse. Among methadone patients, it has been found that normal
street doses of heroin are ineffective at producing euphoria, thus
making the use of heroin more easily extinguishable.
Methadone's effects last four to six times as long as those of heroin,
so people in treatment need to take it only once a day. Also, methadone
is medically safe even when used continuously for 10 years or more.
Combined with behavioral therapies or counseling and other supportive
services, methadone enables patients to stop using heroin (and other
opiates) and return to more stable and productive lives. Methadone
dosages must be carefully monitored in patients who are receiving
antiviral therapy for HIV infection, to avoid potential medication
programs aim to achieve safe and humane withdrawal from opiates by
minimizing the severity of withdrawal symptoms and other medical
complications. The primary objective of detoxification is to relieve
withdrawal symptoms while patients adjust to a drug-free state. Not in
itself a treatment for addiction, detoxification is a useful step only
when it leads into long-term treatment that is either drug-free
(residential or outpatient) or uses medications as part of the
treatment. The best documented drug-free treatments are the therapeutic
community residential programs lasting 3 to 6 months.
Opiate withdrawal is
rarely fatal. It is characterized by acute withdrawal symptoms which
peak 48 to 72 hours after the last opiate dose and disappear within 7 to
10 days, to be followed by a longer term abstinence syndrome of general
malaise and opioid craving.

I was wondering if anyone has had luck finding primal-friendly doctors in their area? If so can you tell me how you found them? Google search? What terms did you use? Web MD? Yellow pages under Grok maybe?
I need to change my primary physician and I would like to try and find one who is at least familiar with a primal lifestyle. Thanks for the help.

Casola's Pizza & Sub Shop
Miami, FL 33145
(305) 858-0090
I've vouched for Casola's Pizza for years. I've been going over there for like ten/eleven years now. A friend of mine used to live right next door to it and one day I was put on to it. Well, quite a few pounds later, and I'm still going.
No, but seriously, the "Best Pizza In Miami" debate is a debate that nobody will win. And the majors like Pizza Hut or Papa Johns are good, but their pizzas are too "manufactured". Casola's is a little more wholesome. And I say wholesome in a greasy slash heart-attack in the making kind of way. You know, but it definitely hits the spot every time.
Casola's has a love or hate relationship with those that eat there, but they have their advantages over other pizza shops. One, they offer other things like subs, hot dogs, chicken wings and burgers. They also have quite honestly what may be the biggest single pizza slice known to mankind.
But the main thing that Casola's offers is that after you order and while you wait, they treat you to free cheese pizza diced up in mini slices to keep your stomach busy while you wait for your order. Its an age old tradition that Casola's has been known for. And something as simple as that, adds to the customer service factor. Plus, everybody loves free.
Overall. Great service, nice staff and ample parking in the back. Casola's is the way to go.

The first one he rescued from the roaring water was a Thai man, at the end of his strength and probably seconds away from disappearing.
The second was a European woman, Dutch or German, he thinks. She was a strong swimmer, but how long could that last when the water was so strong it ripped buildings apart and lifted cars as if they were rubber ducks drowning in draining bath water?
The third was lifeless. An "adult male", Roman Quaedvlieg says, the police-speak coming through down the end of the phone from Canberra.
He also remembers the long boat. He'd noticed it before the tsunami hit, tied to the wharf and being loaded with tourists heading out on day trip. It swept past him with two people screaming for help, clinging to the upturned hull.
"One was a Caucasian – a European guy – and the other was a woman, I'm not sure what nationality she was, and the boat, that was probably 150 metres, 200 metres from shore," he says.
"I was trying to work out how I was going to help these people out, but the pace, they had floated off down to the south."
To remember the detail around him when all hell breaks loose is Mr Quaedvlieg's line of work. Boxing Day 2004 is all still there; the distances between himself and the wave, or safe ground, or those needing help to the descriptions of people he saved and lost.
Mr Quaedvlieg, now chief executive of Customs and Border Protection Services, was working in the Australian Crime Commission covert unit at the time.
The trip to Thailand was his honeymoon with wife Christine and a break from the grubbiness of the Melbourne gangsters he had been investigating.
Boxing Day was the last day of their holiday and they were eating breakfast at their elevated, hillside resort in Phuket that overlooked the ocean when the wave came in. It was about a kilometre away and Mr Quaedvlieg kept waiting for it to break.
"It kept coming like a train. There was a lot of noise, a lot of screaming because by that stage other people had twigged and you could hear it hitting infrastructure in and around the resort," he says.
"There was like a flow-back of water and when the flow-back started occurring, it brought back with it cars and houses ... we were watching this unfold and I said to Christine, 'Wait here, I'm going to bolt down to the lower tier to make sure everything is OK."

The rescues probably took minutes and Mr Quaedvlieg continued running along the shoreline, scanning for people close enough to pull in. In the distance, beyond the violent flow-back of water, the ocean was pacific, like glass.
"But then there was a panic ensuing because someone had said there was a tidal wave. The big one was still coming and that caused pandemonium," he says.
Mr Quaedvlieg ran back to his wife and they scrambled up the resort to their room on higher ground. They switched on the television and the scale of the chaos smacked them in the face.
"We thought it was local tidal aberration," he says.
The couple were able to fly out the same afternoon and were among the first Australians to make it back from south-east Asia.
A media crush awaited them at Melbourne Airport and cameras captured the couple pushing luggage out of customs, which inadvertently blew Mr Quaedvlieg's cover just before gangland violence escalated in the city.
Violence and death is part of Mr Quaedvlieg's job and a decade on, for the most part, he recalls Phuket with professionalism, as if he's remembering one of his investigations.
But for a man for whom answers are part of the end game, he never found out who those people were that he pulled from the water.
"The European woman would have got out, the Thai guy, he wasn't a strong swimmer and he was just hanging on. I have no idea who they were and I don't know to this day whether that male I pulled out of the water is dead or alive."
