It is very difficult for Newcastle fans at the moment – extremely difficult — because it seems like we are all weary with fighting relegation last season and losing so many games this year already – it´s been a terrible 2015 so far with just over three months to go.
To recap briefly – to keep the level of pain under control – in 25 league game this year we have won 3, lost 16 and drawn 6 and in 3 cup games we have lost 2 of them.
So in total we have played 28 games, lost 18, drawn 6 and won 4.
That is not a good record.
Steve McClaren – going through hell and high water right now
And that? why there is battle fatigue with Newcastle fans and one thing we should point out – just less than 34,000 turned up for the game on Wednesday night – which was phenomenal.
Newcastle must get back to playing how we have played already this season against Southampton, Manchester United and Arsenal and especially in those last two games – we were resilient – something we haven´t been for a long time.
So it? not like the lads cannot do it – and it was also true last season when in the last game our players were little short of magnificent in such an important game.
Remember with just five minutes to go we were still in danger of possibly being relegated – until Jonas scored.
In particular, Vurnon Anita and Jonas Gutierrez were great and particularly the Argentine who had the game of his career in his final game for Newcastle United.
Jonas was a hero that day if ever there was one.
We need all out players to stand up and be counted – and if nothing else against Chelsea this Saturday show the courage, passion and determination they have already shown a number of times this season.
If they do that then who knows they may even find some of those skills they possess.
Newcastle´s team is far too good to be where we are right now in the league – but that´s here we are – and that´s where we have to fight from to get up that league table.
The next two games against Chelsea and Manchester City will be very difficult.
But it must all start with our players deciding they will give everything for the shirt.
In the past things can be turned around if the players can do that – and if they do that great support from the Newcastle fans will be there.
But it takes courage, determination and guts coming from our players.
Keep the faith – even though it seems almost impossible at times – given our very poor start to the season.
I was watching the Pope Francis (what an inspiration) on TV today in Washington – and he seemed happy enough even though San Lorenzo have lost two of their last three games.
As we said – let´s try to keep the faith – it´s much better for our players than any of the alternatives we have seen.
Comments welcome.

As Americans traditionally turn to family values for their Thanksgiving celebrations this time of year, Italian tiremaker Pirelli gets male engines racing with the latest version of its famed topless-model calendar.
ALSO ON DRIVE ON: Has auto industry sexism gone too far? Judge yourself from these models posing at the SEMA aftermarket car parts show.
Destined to hang on garage walls around the world, the 2010 calendar features the hottest bodies in the hottest poses in the most exotic locals. Think Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition without the tops of the swimsuits. Pirelli's trick is then to release the calendar to only an exclusive few (thousand). Of, course it all starts with a lavish party featuring the pinup models. But here's the fast way to see the photos:
Here is the Pirelli calendar site, where you won't find the racy photos unless you register. For that, here's the link to the Huffington Post where they are in all their topless glory.

What i really like about the days between x-mas and new year is that you have time for things that you usually don't have time for.
The stroy: I love my girlfriend. I likle C# and I like asciiart. So it happend that she showed me some ascii's. I asked myself if somebody has written some image to ascii in C#. I googled but found nothing. I did some image manipulation stuff for the company before x-mas and so I builded a basic image to ascii conversion library in C#.

"As Patron of the Australian Red Cross, and as a mother and grandmother, I urge all Australians to do what they can to ease the distress faced by these vulnerable people," said Ms Bryce.
"Recently I saw the raw impact for myself at the UNHCR Za'atri refugee camp in Jordan. I spoke with women who abandoned their homes and livelihoods, grasping their children with fear and a determination to survive. I felt their exhaustion, desperation, and uncertainty for the future."
Red Cross Head of International Programs, Donna McSkimming, said Syria faces a humanitarian crisis and Australians can help bring emergency relief to the millions of people affected by the conflict by donating to the Syria Crisis Appeal 2012.
"The number of killed and wounded is rising daily in Syria and there are an estimated 2.5 million people in need of humanitarian assistance. Up to one million people have been displaced by the fighting, including around 250,000 who have been forced to flee Syria and are now living in makeshift camps in Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Turkey," said Ms McSkimming.
"Donations to the Appeal will go to support the Syrian Arab Red Crescent in providing emergency health care as well as supplying food, water and other essential relief items to people inside Syria. The Appeal will also help the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement assist people in Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq who are who have been forced to flee Syria."
Over the past 12 months, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement has been one of the few humanitarian organisations with continuous access inside Syria and has provided aid including food and health care for around 800,000 people affected by violence across the country.
"The reports and images coming out of Syria and the camps of displaced people in neighbouring countries have touched many Australians. The best way you can support the people of Syria is to make a tax deductible donation to the Appeal," said Ms McSkimming.

My husband and I LOVE fish tacos. Anytime they are on the menu, at least one of us orders them. One of our favorite restaurants in Mexico had the most delicious fish tacos with red cabbage slaw. I was a little nervous at first, but it was love at first bite. After coming home, I was craving those battered fish tacos with red cabbage slaw, so I decided to try my hand at them. They were surprisingly easy (I used a few shortcuts), but they are definitely a "keep" in our book!
Serves: 2-3
These quick and easy fish tacos with red cabbage slaw are a weeknight favorite at our house!
15 minPrep Time
15 minTotal Time

- 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon honey

- cilantro for topping (optional)

- Cook fish fillets according to package instructions.
- In a small bowl, mix together cabbage, carrot, green onion, jalapeño, garlic, mayonnaise, honey, and lime juice.
- Place one fish fillet on a tortilla, and top with 1/6 of the cabbage slaw. Top with extra fresh-squeezed lime juice, cilantro, and chipotle mayo.
We love these taco holders & tortilla warmers:

We define EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Although not proscribed under GAAP, the company believes EBITDA is relevant because it helps investors to understand the company's operating performance and makes it easier to compare its results with other oil and gas exploration and production companies that may have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, as the company calculates it, may not be comparable to EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use.

All that said; the casual observer would never know just how potent this car really is. Thanks to the Silverstone Silver paint, this C3 stays low-key despite the big numbers under the hood. While the rest of the car is original, the paint is not. The Corvette was given a high quality repaint in 2013. The top coat fronts an all original fiberglass body that shows absolutely no signs of repair. That original look has served the car well on the show circuit. The numerous judging sheets included in the sale rarely deduct anything for the exterior – certainly a key factor in achieving Top Flight status.
The '68 Corvette marked a radical redesign which brought several aspects of the 1965 Make Shark II concept to life. This C3 carries plenty of original pieces to accent its authentic look. To the front, a familiar C3 cross-flag emblem combines with a bright chrome bumper and a small black chin spoiler to frame a natural combination of clear parking lamps and stainless-trimmed grilles. Above that bumper, a scooped, chrome-trimmed, and "427" branded hood sits just beyond the pop-up headlights. The glass presents well, framed by clean stainless and malleable weather-stripping. The side profile hosts amber corner markers at both ends with little more than the traditional Corvette gills and "Stingray" badging finishing off the side view. At the rear, dual round taillights offered some signature styling from their place above a split rear bumper with a chrome-trimmed license plate recess in the center.
Tilt the hood forward to find an impressive centerpiece – the legendary L89 427hp/435ci big block. The foundation is a rare 3916321 casting number block with an A11 (January 11th) casting date. The assembly stamp decodes as T (Tonawanda) 0508 (May 8thh) IU (L89/4spd) while a partial VIN confirms the block's authenticity. The piece is topped by aluminum heads and an aluminum intake with a trio of Holley two-barrel carburetors. While the horsepower gains were marginal over the L71, the weight savings went a long way towards creating a better balanced driving experience. As a California car, this Corvette shipped with a smog system that remains in place today, spinning alongside the alternator while the water pump pairs with a single fan and an OEM radiator to keep the big block cool. The K66 transistor ignition is tucked away under the chrome ignition cover which, when paired with the chrome air cleaner assembly and valve covers, gives the engine compartment a nice finished look. Cast manifolds, correct decals and a host of factory-installed ancillary components do a great job at communicating just how authentic this bay really is.
Shine a light under this Chevrolet and you'll find an unrestored undercarriage complete with rock solid floors and vintage hardware. Behind the big block, the original close-ratio Muncie M21 4-speed still delivers authoritative shifts, authenticated by its May 7, 1968 build date and a matching VIN derivative. From there, power spins down the driveshaft toward a posi-traction axle with versatile 3.70 gears. As tempting as it is to upgrade these cars, the suspension holds steady with its stock F41 suspension. Up front, a double A-arm front suspension absorbs the bumps while an independent rear with lateral leaf springs keeps the rear in check. Push this Corvette through the corners and you'll appreciate the surprisingly light manual steering paired with tough J50 power disc brakes. One unique aspect of the undercarriage is the optional N11 'off-road' exhaust system which looks the same as the standard setup but offers better sound and performance. At the corners, 15-inch rally wheels with 'top hat' centers and beauty rings meet the road through a fresh set of F70-15 Firestone redlines, rounding out the vintage look.
Between the doors, a well-preserved interior offers space for two with plenty of vintage style. At the ground level, nicely aged door sill plates anchor clean black carpet protected by rubber floor mats with the cross-flag emblem. The transmission tunnel is crowned by a tapered console that makes room for heater controls, an ashtray, and a chrome shifter while further back, power window switches frame the emergency brake handle. Slide into the captain's seat to admire the large factory speedometer and tachometer. The duo is supplemented by a group of smaller gauges in the center of the dash that keep an eye on fuel, water temperature, time, oil pressure, and battery output. Below, the original AM/FM radio still pulls signal, voicing those transmissions through a speaker in the dashboard. A three-spoke steering wheel tops a non-adjustable column while a trio of stainless-trimmed pedals hang below, waiting for input. Overhead, removable T-tops open up the space, adding another great feature to an already desirable car.
The car's original window sticker shows it left GM's St. Louis assembly line in the following configuration:
• Silverstone Silver
• 4-speed close-ratio manual transmission
• Aluminum cylinder heads
• Power disc brakes
• AM/FM radio
• Power windows
• Tinted glass
• Full transistor ignition
• Special off-road exhaust system
• F41 Performance Suspension
• F70x15 2-ply white stripe tires
• Posi-traction axle that's fitted with 3.70 gears
• 427 cubic inch Turbo-Jet V8 that creates 435 horsepower
Options: $1,503.95

Removing a Dead SharePoint Web Part
If you've deleted the DLL or if you reinstalled a DLL which no longer contains the codebehind class for a user control in a web part, you could end up in a scenario where you have a "dead" web part on the page. In my case, it prevented the page from loading and resulted in an error because it couldn't load the type.
Don't panic! The solution is to add a ?Contents=1 to the URL (i.e. http://moss.dev.com/default.aspx?Contents=1), which will allow you to delete the web part from the page.

After a cursory review of Chowhound and Roadfood, this is my list of places to stop in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. I am making a super quick road trip, and do not have time to do my usual more thorough review of options for restaurants and shops to stop for pantry foods to bring home.
Criteria: Stops have to be somewhat close to the freeway and places I can get in and out of quickly. (No lengthy sit-down dinners because I am on a very quick road trip).
La Donna's Fine Foods
White River Fish Market
Oklahoma City:
Classen Grill
I like almost all foods (except sushi :0)
Thanks very much.

North Korea's Kim Jung Un's Pet Project
North Korea's supreme leader Kim Jung Un is not your usual dictator. One of his friends is former NBA star and character of his own, Dennis Rodman.
When one thinks of a dictator and their pet projects, you would think of tanks and nuclear weapons. Maybe because Kim is a younger leader, one of his pet projects is the Munsu Water Park.
When the North Korean government was building the waterpark, Kim had his high ranking officials test the water slides.

You may remember him from his fine work with Dylan Lucas, Cocky Boys and Next Door Buddies. You may also recall when he looked like this as a contestant on Season 2 of Dominic Ford's So You Think You Can Fuck reality show. Well, after more than a year away, Jimmy Clay is back and he's undergone a change. No, not a sex change! He just got a bunch of nasty tattoos all over his otherwise perfect body. In a new solo for Randy Blue, the beefy muscle stud strips out of his orange trunks and shoves a vibrator up his also perfect ass. Now, Jimmy was previously kinda renowned in the industry for his amazing pop shots. Well, the splattery one in this scene joins the pantheon of classic cum from Clay. Enjoy!

Parliament Panel slams CBI`s `discriminatory` promotion policy
A parliamentary panel has slammed the discriminatory policy adopted by CBI in promotion of officers joining on deputation basis and members of its own cadre who are kept at "disadvantageous position" in career growth.
New Delhi: A parliamentary panel has slammed the discriminatory policy adopted by country`s premier investigative agency CBI in promotion of officers joining on deputation basis and members of its own cadre who, it said, are kept at "disadvantageous position" in career growth.
Recommending that cadre personnel and officer should be given a major role in policy making, the panel said agency should have a relook on the policy to depend on other services for filling its ranks.
The committee was disappointed to note that "deputationist officers in the rank of SP were directly promoted as DIG, whereas cadre officers in the rank of SP were promoted as SSP only which is a lower rank".
"Should the Committee derive that the departmental officer is placed at a disadvantageous position, although he is having an obvious edge over the deputationist, in terms of skill experience and expertise owing to his continuous exposure to specialised investigation which is regularly being done in CBI?," the Standing Committee on Personnel, Public Grievances, Law and Justice has noted.
The data presented by the agency shows that a CBI cadre officer`s chances to climb ranks reduce drastically in higher ranks as the quota of deputationists increasing.
It also reveals that CBI has not recruited any officer at the rank of Dy SP for last 10 years while Constables have not been inducted since 2004.
According to CBI, deputation based quota at Constable level is 60 per cent, Head Constables its 20 per cent, ASI its 25 per cent, Inspector 50 per cent, DySP 50 per cent, Additional SP 10 per cent, SP 60 per cent, DIG 75 per cent, Joint Director 80 per cent.
No officer of CBI cadre can hope to rise to the post of Additional Director and above as these are only for IPS officers.

Nokia, Siemens to Merge Network Divisions
Anh Tuan Huynh
June 19, 2006 5:24 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Say hello to Nokia Siemens Networks
Nokia Corporation and Siemens AG have
just announced a merger
between the network solution divisions of the respective companies.
The new company will be called Nokia Siemens Networks
and is a 50-50 joint venture between the communications service provider businesses of Nokia and Siemens. Such a company will have an expected annual revenue of $20B USD.
Nokia has traditionally held the largest market share in the mobile phone industry, with Siemens holding a distant 5th or 6th. Motorola, Samsung, LG and Sony Ericsson compose the rest of the top tier cell phone providers. BenQ, a recent major play in the cell phone industry, acquired Siemens's handset division recently as well. Both companies have recently branched out into the hiptop and PDA market, the new company will almost exclusively sell new devices for wireless convergence products -- a market that few of the other cell phone providers have scratched yet. Nokia's strong presence in the convergence market has paved the way for
such devices as the N-770
, currently slated to become the
Google hiptop of choice
Siemens and Nokia put out the following bullet points about the merger:
Companies form Nokia Siemens Networks with 2005 calendar year pro forma revenues of EUR 15.8 billion.
50-50 joint venture to consist of Nokia's Networks Business Group and Siemens' carrier-related operations for fixed and mobile networks.
Broad scale advantages, leading 'quadruple play' product portfolio and worldwide presence.
Market strength and leading position in fixed-mobile convergence.
Estimated cost synergies of EUR 1.5 billion annually by 2010.
Simon Beresford-Wylie to become chief executive officer and Peter Schönhofer to become chief financial officer.
Siemens has been relatively quiet lately with very few new product announcements unlike Nokia which seems to announce new products every other month. It is too early to predict what Nokia Siemens Networks has in store for its customers but most likely any new 3G compatible mobile devices will be
powered by ATI
"Google fired a shot heard 'round the world, and now a second American company has answered the call to defend the rights of the Chinese people." -- Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-N.J.)

SEATTLE: Asdrubal Cabrera has left the team and been placed on the bereavement list because of the death of his grandfather in Venezuela.
He was pretty shaken up about it yesterday,'' manager Manny Acta said today. ""It was his grandpa, a very important person in his life.''
Acta didn't know when Cabrera would return but speculated that he would miss the remainder of the trip, which means three games with the Mariners and three with the Athletics.
To take Cabrera's place on the roster, lefty Nick Hagadone was called up from Columbus to give the Tribe eight relievers. Jason Donald will take over at short, and third baseman Jack Hannahan will back him up.

I saw this in one of the widgets on my iGoogle homepage and thought it looked totally cool
Maximal Information-based Nonparametric Exploration or MINE examines datasets and finds correlations and patterns that aren't defined before the examination occurs, ie empty query.
In other words, find what you're looking for when you don't know what you're looking for.
Sounds cool. I'm going to be keeping an eye on this one.

I was so excited when Kmart contacted me to take the Kmart Halloween Challenge! They sent me a giftcard to go on a shopping spree to decorate my house and my family for Halloween! I headed out for my local Kmart and was super excited about what I found!
There were at least 5 full aisles dedicated to Halloween! They had costumes and costumes for everyone from infants to adults! I picked up a bunch of things to show you next week! I was super impressed with the large selection, they had some really unique costumes there!
They also had a large assortment of bags for trick or treating and jack o lanterns and glow sticks. I used to love wearing a glow stick around my neck while I was out trick or treating and I know it is much safer to be so visible when you're out and about on Halloween night! I was also impressed with the prices. It's so refreshing (and unusual!) to see sale prices on items before the actual holiday! We're all used to low prices after the holiday has passed but these prices were low before the holiday!
As you can see the amount of costumes was just huge! It took me a long time to go through them and make our selections!
They also had some awesome accessories like these fun Halloween earrings! I bought the purple ones on the next to the last row – thought they were funky and super fun!
These girls headbands and bows were adorable! I got some bows for my niece, her hair is now long enough to wear bows and I know she will look adorable wearing these bows around Halloween! It's an easy way to get in the spirit!
They also had an aisle of home decor items that I loved. There were fun inflatable items for outside and things to decorate the inside such as spider webbing and even textiles like tableclothes and plates! I went crazy in this aisle and couldn't get enough! They also had really cute black Rubbermaid storage totes so you can easily locate your Halloween items once you put them away!
Oh and the Halloween candy! There were a couple aisles of candy and all of your old favorites were there for sure! I liked that they had smaller bags and then also the really large assortment bags. I usually try to get candy I don't love so if we have anything leftover I don't eat it all!
They even have fun seasonal everyday items like these hand soaps from Dial! They are regular Dial scent but in fun Halloween packaging!
I was so impressed with Kmart's Halloween offerings and had a really fun shopping trip! Next week I'll show you what I got and the week after I will show you my house all decorated with the items I got from Kmart! Make sure to check out Kmart now – the prices on their Halloween items are super low and the selection is huge!

"We bought these to compliment the Dappled Glade Signature Wedding Invitations, and they performed perfectly! We used the card to send out information about RSVPing, the reception site, and a note to see our wedding website. We ended up changing the Header font to match that used in the text body, and centered all of our text. I would highly recommend ordering the 8 free sample invites from WPD - it comes with a paper texture information booklet that is extremely helpful!"
"I was able to reformat the templates to suit our needs for an extra enclosure card. The request was received quickly and within minutes I had the blank card to personalize. Quick, efficient and beautiful. Thanks Divas!"
"The team was able to help personalize my card to match mu invites and also helped layout the text so it looked neat and professional. I am so happy with the outcome."
"This is a great card! I really loved that you can personalize it however you want with text colors and sizes. The paper is thick and durable, and the added texture really makes it classy and rustic. It matched my invites perfectly! One tip: don't worry if you can't get your text exactly how you want it in the design stage; your personal design assistant can easily make the text larger, smaller, centered, etc. They made it look exactly how I wanted!"
"This insert turned out great. Good for any additional info - we used it for information regarding our destination wedding (e.g., travel agent info, dates, resort, plus our website and RSVP dates)."

Comments about Merrick Before Grain Tuna Dry Cat Food:
I did not know that a cat is not suppose to eat grains, until researching and discovering articles over the subject about a year ago. I still feed my three cats dry cat food, but I try to purchase cat foods that are better for them. This brand of dry cat food, Merrick Before Grain Tuna is great for my cat's health. Since one of my three cats has a naturally tendency for obesity I try to watch what a feed my cats. I do buy cheaper food like Purina Weight management, but I switch between more expensive brands like this one. So far, all three of my cats have loved this food, which is great since it's so good for them.
Quality of Ingredients
The ingredients in this cat food are much better than other brands. It is a little more expensive, but well worth it for my cat's health.
Flavor Selection
All three of my cat's love the taste of Merrick's dry cat food and it helps keep my fat cat's weight under control. If you can afford this cat food, then I would suggest feeding it to your cat.
Comments about Merrick Before Grain Tuna Dry Cat Food:
Merrick's Before Grain cat food is such an amazing products. Did you know that cat's are not supposed to eat grains? Well, they are not! And while there are several low-grain and no-grain options in cat food, Merrick's Before Grain cat food is the cheapest option. It is still pricey especially if you normally feed your cat meow mix, but it is the best option if you care about giving your cat what he/her requires to be healthy. The tuna flavor is adored by all four of my cats, but they have several other flavors which are all accepted by my felines. I love this 11.1 pound bag because it provides us with a lot of food. It is the cheapest option. Buying in bulk is usually a great way to save money. Your cats are going to love Before Grains! It is a dry cat food so feel free to leave it out for your felines to eat whenever they chose. If your cat is on a traditional cat food diet and is overweight, then use Before Grains to slim their waist lines!
Comments about Merrick Before Grain Tuna Dry Cat Food:
I found Before Grain at my local pet food store and decided to try it. My cat has hyperthyroidism and is now VERY picky about eating. When I bought this food he went right over to the dish and started eating it. I was beyond shocked because dry food is one of his picky "i dont eat this" things. I will continue buying this food and would recommend it to any picky cat owner.

A major focus within the Department of Microbiology and Immunology is Cancer Research. Twelve primary and six secondary faculty are members of the Indiana University Cancer Center, which has recently been designated as a Clinical Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute. This designation places the Indiana University Cancer Center with an elite group of centers that focus on excellent clinical care and the rapid implementation of new discoveries into the treatment of cancer.
This inter-disciplinary focus in Cancer brings together scientific excellence and the capability to integrate a diversity of research approaches to focus on the problem of cancer. Several department faculty are studying basic molecular and cellular immunological mechanisms relevant to Tumor Immunology (Blum, Kaplan, Klemsz, Dent, Brutkiewicz). The laboratories of Drs. Broxmeyer, Pelus, and Srour, are defining molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling hematopoietic stem cell production, mobilization and homing, areas critical to Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, a curative therapy for some cancers and potentially many more. Research by departmental faculty in understanding the regulation of Human Papillomavirus gene expression and how these genes regulate host cellular responses has important implications in preventing Cervical Cancer (Roman, Brown).
The ability of cancer cells to overcome genetic mechanisms designed to control altered proliferation, i.e., Apoptosis, which imparts a survival advantage to these cells, is an active area of research by several departmental faculty (Broxmeyer, Pelus). Dr. Kao's laboratory focuses on the regulation of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) promoter in the hormonal-refractory prostate cancer and the development of gene therapy strategies.
The ability to introduce genes into cancer cells that will lead to cell death will likely result from research into the next generation of gene vectors and improved gene transfer and delivery being extensively studied by department faculty (Broxmeyer, Clapp, Haneline, Pelus). Basic science investigation at the gene, cell and whole animal levels within the Department of Microbiology and Immunology and interaction with clinicians and clinician scientists in the Departments of Medicine, Urology, Pathology and Hematology/Oncology provide a unique environment to support basic and translational research.

Hyperkalemia is a condition in which there is an elevated amount of potassium in the blood (above 5.0 mEq/l). Potassium is needed for the normal functioning of the heart, muscles and nerves and to help transmit electrical signals throughout the nervous system. High potassium levels can cause kidney stones, cardiac arrest and death. A diet that restricts potassium and is low in saturated fats and hydrogenated oil can help reduce potassium.
Symptoms of High Potassium
In some individuals, high levels of potassium may cause no symptoms, while others have reported nausea, fatigue, muscle weakness, tingling sensations, irregular heartbeat and weak pulse. Generally, unless the rise in potassium is very rapid, symptoms of high potassium in the bloodstream are usually undetected until potassium levels reach 7.0 mEq/l or higher.
Causes of High Potassium
High levels of potassium can be caused by diet, medications, kidney failure and Addison's disease.
Diet for High Potassium
Potassium is found in meat, fruits, vegetables, nuts and in dairy products. A diet for those with high potassium levels needs to lower their intake of potassium to under 2,000 mg each day.
To follow a low potassium diet, avoid spices and herbs that contain potassium including salt substitutes, limit fruit and vegetable consumption to four servings a day of 1/2 cup each time and reduce milk intake to only 1/2 cup each day. The restriction on milk includes all types of milk, such as buttermilk, ice cream and yogurt.
Some fruits, vegetables and other foods should be completely avoided. Fruits that are very high in potassium and need to be stricken from the diet include apricots, avocados, cantaloupes, honeydews, nectarines, plantains and tangelos. Vegetables that should be completely avoided include artichokes, beans, dried peas, lentils, baked potatoes, french fries, potato chips, sweet potatoes, Swiss chard, tomato paste/puree, winter squash and yams. Other foods to stay away from include chocolate candy and beverages, molasses and nuts.

Groups fight cuts in lead poison funds
By: Karen MacPherson
Environmental and children's groups are trying to persuade Congress to reject President Bush's proposed 20 percent cut in a federal lead poisoning prevention program and actually boost funding instead, to $200 million from the current $174 million.
New children are identified as lead-poisoned every day, said Don Ryan, executive director of the Alliance for Healthy Homes, even though the number of children suffering from lead poisoning has declined significantly in the past decade — from 3 million in 1990 to some 400,000 today — because lead has been eliminated from gasoline and from many household hazards.
Lead poisoning can lower IQ, damage hearing and lead to behavior problems, so the ripple effects are felt in many areas of a child's life, especially in school. The rate of lead poisoning is particularly high among low-income, minority children, and children in urban areas.
"If funding for the program is cut, more children will be left behind due to the effects of lead poisoning, which diminishes the ability to think, concentrate and make progress in school," said Emil Parker, director of the Children's Defense Fund's health division.
At issue is funding for the federal Office of Health Homes and Lead Hazard Control, which is part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. This year's budget of $174 million provides grants to state and local governments for lead abatement efforts in low-income housing.
The program is the main national vehicle for eliminating lead paint hazards in private housing, the most common cause of childhood lead poisoning. An estimated 39 million U.S. homes contain lead paint, and it costs an average of $6,000 to either control or eliminate lead paint hazards in a home.
The department hopes to eliminate childhood lead poisoning by 2010. In its proposed 2005 budget, the administration called the Lead Hazard Control Program "the central element of the president's effort to eradicate childhood lead-paint poisoning" but recommended slicing its budget to $139 million for next year.
Housing Department spokesman Brian Sullivan said HUD would be glad to accept more money. "When Congress gives us more money, we're not going to turn it down," he said. "We defer to the folks with the power of the purse."
Bush also proposed decreasing funding for the Lead Risk Prevention Program located in the Environmental Protection Agency to $11 million from $15 million. Two other federal anti-lead programs — at the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institute of Environmental Health Services — would get modest increases under the Bush proposal.
Moira Singer, director of Lead Safe Pittsburgh, said federal funding is crucial. Last year, the city received a $2.16 million federal grant to address lead paint problems, she added.
The Pittsburgh area "has a huge risk" for lead poisoning, Singer said. Nearly 90 percent of the homes in Allegheny County were built before 1978, when the federal government prohibited lead in paint. And 64 percent were built before 1960, when most paint manufacturers began phasing out lead, which they had used to make colors brighter and the paint last longer.
"Unless something has been done, there is a high probability that there is lead-based paint in those homes," she added. "It's not just a low-income problem; it's an old house problem."
Lead paint on doors and windows is a particular problem, Singer said, because they move and the paint chips off. Even if doors and windows are painted over with lead-free paint, the paint underneath eventually can be brought to the surface as chips or dust to be ingested by children.
Screening children for lead poisoning is crucial to improve kids health and identify homes that need lead abatement, Parker said. But a recent report by the Environmental Working Group focused on Ohio found that only one in seven children ages one through five was screened for lead poisoning in 2002.
In recent years, cities and states have tried to boost funding for lead abatement programs by suing paint manufacturers, contending the companies knew lead was a health hazard long before they stopped adding it to paint. The governments claim they've been saddled with the resulting costs of lead abatement and health care.
These lawsuits have been generally unsuccessful, as have individual cases brought against manufacturers.
In July 2000, a Baltimore jury ruled against a man named Tyrone Parker, who sought up to $35 million from Pittsburgh-based PPG Industries and NL Industries. Parker contended the companies' products had harmed him physically and mentally.
In a case brought against eight paint makers by the state of Rhode Island two years ago, the jury couldn't reach a unanimous decision and the judge declared a mistrial. PPG was not involved in that lawsuit.
Whatever the outcome of such lawsuits, Singer said experts know how to eliminate childhood lead poisoning.
"We need three things," she said: "Good medical care and screening for lead poisoning; good, enforceable laws that ensure property managers maintain their property without waiting for a child to get poisoned; and funding."
"None of this is going to happen without funding," she added.
