Song: Charlie Puth ft Kygo- Carry On
Quite a cold day, outside my window. It's calm, quiet and very relaxed… day after the general elections.There is a nursery rhyme I used to teach to my little students back in a beautiful nursery school in Eldoret,Kenya.Here is a new rendition,for a much older crowd.
Oh be careful little eyes what you see. Because, often, nothing appears as it is.
Oh be careful little ear what you hear. Because, things get lost in translation.
Oh be careful little hands what you do. Because, you hold your future.
Oh be careful little feet where you go. Because, you lead.
Oh be careful little mouth what you say. Because, words are prayers.

Slap her face!
Burn the house down!
Shoot his foot!
Cut him!
Once upon a long ago, I was 3, and my mum took me to this school. The details of that day still linger in my mind. The school, with a single building that was cream in color, a small turtle(which was our school pet), a big 'Mzambarau' tree, red monkey bar and a beautiful headmistress. I remember my first friend, his name was George, perhaps the most naughty boy I've had the chance of meeting. We held hands, all day long, he was my safe haven in this new place, my first conscious recognition of the learning process.
Over the years, my definition of learning has evolved; from the visual aided, and repetition of words spoken by my first teacher. To, a process that takes place on a daily basis.
Have you ever been in a situation or experience where all you can think is 'What the actual hell is going on?' Well, it happens a lot, to each one of us. And most of the time, we feel like it's a shitty occurrence, and that life sucks. Then, there are those days that our heads are in the clouds; because everything is going on well, the sun seems to be shining, and joy oh joy! Life is a beautiful thing.
Two examples of experiences that shapes our lives; relationships and our area of trade. Often, we meet people- be it lovers or friends, and at times, they do not hang around, but instead, exit either like a gentle breeze, or like a nasty hurricane. And, they may leave us being better, or, in the light of the moment,worse. We tend to dwell on the actions that had brought about the separation, instead of the thing that they have taught us; about ourselves and about others. Or, there are those that stay by your side, showing you different perspectives as you grow in step. Similarly, we work in various places, with various people. You might have a wonderful boss; who wants you to keep growing, or alternatively, have an asshole-who you feel is constantly out to get you. But, what did you get out of that process? Did you grow you network? Did you learn a new skill? Did you visit a country? Did you realize that you are good at one thing and suck at another? What did you learn?
To live is to learn, at least that is what I have come to believe, and try to practice on a daily basis. And truth be told, moving from a previously fixed mindset to one that is trying to view things in a new perspective is not easy. But I believe, it will be worth it, some day.
So…let us sit down at the end of this cold day, and write down 2 things we have learned, as tiny as they may be. Because, to live is to learn.
Nairobi, Kenya.
Song: Attention by Charlie Puth
People get the leaders they deserve. That is what I believe.
Are you a corrupt nation? Always trying to get an easy way out of any issue or situation? Are your conversation riddled with how one tribe is bad at something? Do you not care about how your actions affects your neighbors and immediate environment?
Well…that is the kind of person the country will get as a leader. Change your mindset,change your attitude, change your behavior and you will change your country.

I drown,
In this pool of misery.
Every time I hold her hand as she cries about him.It makes me wonder why we fall in-love, what the whole point of being vulnerable to someone who has the ability to fill you with so much joy, and at the same time, so much pain. At times, it hurts me more than it does her.
'You deserve better', that is what I always say. Pull her close and tell her that everything is going to be okay. "But, will he change?" she asks,"Will he ever change??", "Please tell me he'll change" she looks into my eyes.
"Baby girl, if he were to change, wouldn't he would have done that by now? Maybe, he is waiting for a sign, or maybe, he does not know what he wants or how he wants it. Maybe he is as confused about this thing as much as you are, or, maybe he is just using you. So many maybe's", I shake my head in confusion.
"What if he's the one???"she sobs.
"What is the one?" I ask.
"The one who completes you, the one who builds with you, the one who is there for you through it all" she says with so much conviction.
"But, aren't you as complete as you need to be without him here? Isn't he supposed to complement you and be by your side as your teammate? Not a requirement to be complete? Are we all wandering around in search for the one? Moving from lover to lover, seeking the perfect fit? Do you think that he is your perfect fit? Despite all these tears?" I ask.
She looks at me, buries her head on my neck…and sobs away. And, holding her, feeling her pain,and… my tears fall.
I drown,
In this pool of misery.

Social change is the transformation of culture and institutions over time. It's moving from one school of thought to another… the adaptation of new systems, routines and ways of life in general.
When we encounter social change, we encounter the movement of a community, a country… A continent even. The old skin shedding off…bit by bit.
Is social change possible? Definitely. Positive social change is the true goal. This dynamic movement of society,forward into better behavior, better institutions and better lives.
And so you ask,who brings about this social change? You.
Don't do business for the sake of business, be sure that your business contributes to the the forward movement of your society.

The power of music is one that we have not yet fully understood.
Have you ever been in a car,or passed next to a shop or restaurant, and then…that song comes on. Suddenly, you are walking down memory lane…to a special time in your life. Or, your mood changes?
That song holds so much meaning and emotion, a little bit of your past, some hope for the future. Then, there is that one song, that brightens up your day, makes you feel like you can take on the world and anything that life decides to throw at you. And yet another, makes you feel like the clouds are closing in.
The song that comes on the radio, and, your eyes shut…you drift away. Off you go, carried by the melodies, to that evening when that special someone introduced you to a song that they love, and now, each note makes you ache with longing or instead,causes a deep loathing. What about that other song, the one that makes you remember childhood days, sitting at home with your family, rocking to a song that your parent or sibling loved. Or, the song that played when you were on a road-trip with a bunch of friends, singing away. And, lastly, that song that always makes you cry…and you do not know why.
Music…such a powerful thing. It moves, it touches, it pains, it heals.
A song for every occasion; a song for every beautiful memory, a song for every painful memory, a song for every friend, a song for every lover, a song for a stage in life, a song for every emotion, a song for every dream…
That one song.
As a bonus, here is a list of songs that made me write this article. Each with it's own special effect.
And to many more songs…

text: Hey guys, I'm trying to gather some information about guides in Colorado. I'm going to take my dad and one of his friends on an elk hunt and they both really want to hunt in this state. I've never used a guide before and would like to hear of some of the guides that you would recommend. This hunt won't be all long range, as my dad's friend hasn't shot much past 250, but dad and I both have shot to 500 yds quite a bit. Because of their age, they're not looking to do the horseback hunts and camping isn't really in the cards either. I know this will limit the choices, but if you have someone you can recommend, I would really appreciate hearing about them. Thanks, Chris

It can be scary to create your website if you don't use a template. However, it can also be very exciting. You might not be sure how to plan your site or who to ask to help you. You may not even know how much it costs to design and operate a website. The advice here will help you start on the road to success.
Allow your users the ability to cancel something if they are not happy with what they typed in. This could be anything from filling out forms to registering for email newsletters. If you do not give your users the option to cancel something, then you are making them do something, which can cause users to be leery of making future purchases or coming back to your website at all.
Concept sketches are regularly used by web designer during the initial stages of website development. This tool can be effective for designing the look and feel of the website, and also identifying any functional requirements that your website might have. Use this as your starting point and build out from there.
Although the tools that a host makes available for web design can help you arrange your site's basic layout, you shouldn't rely on them exclusively. Your site should reflect you and your personality, so you want to make sure it's not too generic.
Be sure that you don't have a design for your website that is too similar to that of your competitors' sites. Take a look at your competitors' websites. If your website is too similar to your competitors, potential customers will not remember it. You will only be seen as a copycat of the one that was up previously.
Go ahead and sign up for a newsletter that can inform you about web design periodically, so that if you ever lose sight of your web design goals you have a place to come back to and begin once again. Whether designers are well-versed in web design or just getting started, they are likely to find helpful information.
You can use some free software to help set up your site. While it is widely thought that pricey software and tools are the only solutions to building a quality website, there are actually vast amounts of free software and tools available on the Internet. Both of which can help you as you start the design process and to keep your site up and running. You just have to search a little to locate the free tools that best suit you.
Find cheat sheets, checklists and code snippets and bookmark them for later. These lists can also help you improve your site.
Having some unused space within your site is an excellent design feature. Do not fall under the illusion that your site should be completely filled with information. Using white space makes your website easy to read. This makes your site's message much easier to understand and process.
Now that you've read the advice contained herein, you should be ready to tackle the first steps of creating your site. You are ready to set a budget, look for more good advice, and start making notes on what you want out of your site. Beginning today will lead to a great site in the future

Village backers
try to defuse 'negative' rumors
Councilman John Cartier urged his Claymont constituents to
"please trade on the facts" when considering the varied aspects
related to the Renaissance Village project.
acknowledging that "we're doing bold and new things" in the
effort not only to replace the blighted Brookview apartments
complex but also to revitalize the broader community, he said
there are ample checks and balances in place to safeguard the
interests of current Claymont residents.
Robert Ruggio,
executive vice president of Commonwealth Group, lead partner in
the redevelopment venture, said there is no validity in
rumors questioning economic viability of the project. He pointed
out that the 68-acre site has been cleared and infrastructure
work is well along. "That wouldn't have happened if we didn't
have the proper financing," he said.
and Ruggio spoke at a meeting of the Claymont Design Review
Advisory Committee at which Timothy Fry, New Castle County
government's bond counsel, explained how incremental-tax and
special-development-district financing, which are proposed to
help the developer pay for providing sanitary and storm sewers and streets
for the site. Legislation sponsored by Cartier to
authorize such financing is pending before County Council and is
expected to be enacted when Council next meets on Sept. 16.
To an
large extent, the speakers were engaged in proverbial 'preaching
to the choir' because committee members and other regular
attenders at the meetings are already supportive. Although
meetings of the committee, an arm of the county Department of
Land Use, are open to the public, virtually no one from the
general public showed up for the meeting on Aug. 27.
repeated information previously reported by Delaforum that a
builder has been selected to begin construction of the first
phase of the project -- townhouses in two blocks on the Darley
Road side of the tract. He said he is not yet at liberty to
disclose the identity of the builder pending signing of a
contract beyond saying that it is a "very well-known"
Delaware-based firm.
will be a public announcement soon and "that block will begin
coming out of the ground in November," Ruggio said. Commonwealth
will undertake the second phase -- retail establishments and
apartments at the main entrance to the community at Philadelphia
Pike and Manor Avenue -- in early 2009.
He said
Commonwealth is in active discussions with three firms with
national reputations about construction of other phases of the
project. At one time or another, he said, seven or eight of the
country's 12 "top-rated" building firms have expressed serious
interest in being involved in the project.
he said "there is still a tough [real-estate] market out there,"
there are signs the housing situation is brightening. There is
demand for townhouses selling in the $190,000 to $200,000 range
-- the 'product' planned for the first phase, he said. "We feel
they are going to sell."
Fry and Ruggio after the meeting
confirmed a Delaforum calculation that the proposed
infrastructure financing indicates that Renaissance Village
property owners will pay something over $30,000 during the
30-year life of bonds sold to provide the money, compared to
something around $23,000 to $25,000 during the life of a 30-year
mortgage if the infrastructure costs were factored into the
selling prices of the residential units. Buyers of the
commercial properties would have slightly higher obligations.
that route would enable Commonwealth to reduce interim financing
costs and recoup all or a large part of its $17 million
infrastructure-related investment up front rather than piecemeal
as the properties are sold during a five-to-seven-year buildout.
different contexts, Cartier said at the meeting that providing
local government subsidies is a common method "used all over
the United States" to encourage redevelopment of blighted or
underused locales. "From the beginning, this has been a
public-private partnership [to] address the blighted Brookview
apartments complex," he said.
While the
intended infrastructure financing is new to Delaware and only
two jurisdictions -- Millsboro and Bridgeville in Sussex County
-- have used it, there is comparable precedent in state
financing of the Christina Riverfront development in Wilmington.
"Over $300 million of direct state subsidy" has gone into that
project, Cartier said.
empowering New Castle County government to use incremental-tax
financing, the General Assembly specifically limited its use to
the area included in the Claymont 'hometown' zoning overlay,
which centers on Philadelphia Pike.
The subsidy will have no ill effect on county
government's gilt-edged bond rating or its current fiscal
situation, he said. Nor will county government or its taxpayers
"be held responsible in any default situation or bankruptcy,"
Cartier added.
no way Councilman Cartier would put county finances at risk," he
Also in
another context, Ruggio said that, even with the initial
$1,000-a-year special tax and its 2% annual escalation,
Renaissance Village's residential property owners will not be
overburdened. Their tax obligation will still be "competitive"
with adjacent Pennsylvania and New Jersey, he said.
said that incremental tax on increased value of the site that
county coffers will 'lose' will be more than offset by an
estimated $30 million in increased revenue from the
property-transfer tax when units are sold and resold.
Brookview complex generated $32,500 in property-tax revenue a
year. "In policing alone, we were spending more than that on a
weekly basis," he said. "We have a lot to gain with very little
liability to New Castle County or Claymont."
for the proposed financing would be establishment of a special
development district which the proposed ordinance defines as
being the property covered by the approved Renaissance Village
development plan. Only property owners in the district would be
special development district is an entity separate from County Council, state legislative, school and other districts
which include Renaissance Village or the rest of Claymont.
government would then sell up to $20 million of special-purpose
bonds at an interest rate not to exceed 9%. Both are upper
limits, Fry explained. The actual amount, he said, would
probably be somewhere between $12 million and $15 million.
Because interest on the bonds would be tax-exempt for most
investors, the interest rate would be lower than a mortgage rate. But, because the
bonds would not be backed by the 'full faith and credit' of
county government -- an euphemism for its power to tax -- the
rate would be higher than what the county's general-purpose
bonds would command.
proposed ordinance specifies Bank of America as the underwriter.
Fry told Delaforum that a "negotiated arrangement", rather than
competitive bidding, would be employed because of the complexity
of the arrangement. He said that is not unusual with
special-purpose bond issues and would not likely be challenged
by any other bank or financial services firm.
Fry did not specify an expected interest rate, it would likely be somewhere
around 6%.
proposed ordinance gives County Executive Christopher Coons
authority to determine the details of the bond issue. That, too,
is normal practice with all bond issues and allows flexibility
and dealing with the underwriter, Fry said.
from the bond sale -- which likely would occur toward the end of
the year -- would be given to the joint-venture developer --
identified in the ordinance and other county records as
Brookview Townhomes Development L.L.C., although that name has
not been publicly associated with the project -- to reimburse
the cost of infrastructure it has provided. Fry limited that to
roads and sewer lines, but the proposed ordinance lists any kind
of infrastructure that serves the redeveloped area, whether
located there or not, as eligible for reimbursement.
said having replaced the deteriorated sewer system which served
Brookview apartments carries a bonus benefit in that it provides
the Claymont area with additional sewer capacity which, in turn,
will allow other development projects to proceed.
developer and builders would still be obligated to pay the
various impact fees that county government requires.
bonds, Fry said, would carry a 30-year maturity, but could be
called at face value for refinancing or other reason after 10
years. Interest would be paid semi-annually, but the principle
would not be paid until the bonds mature or are called earlier.
provide money to pay the principle while avoiding an huge
end-of-term payment balloon, a county-administered fund would
receive payments through the life of the bonds. Because the
set-aside amounts are scheduled to increase year-to-year, the proposed
ordinance provides for a 2% annual escalation of the special
development tax property owners will pay, Fry explained. The
bonds' interest rate will be fixed at their sale and will not change.
Money to
service the debt, including accumulating the eventual principle repayment,
would be generated from two sources. Eighty percent of it would
come from a special development tax which would be set
initially at up to $1,170 for residential units sold at market
value and $572 for the 10% of the units designated as
reduced-price 'workforce', or 'affordable' housing. The special
tax on commercial properties would amount to up to 81.2¢ per
square foot.
The other
20% would come from the amount of county property tax that would
be generated by the amount the assessment on the property
increases as the result of its having been redeveloped. The
difference between that figure and the amount generated from the
current assessment, which county government would continue to
receive, is the amount of the public subsidy involved.
to data included in the one of the exhibits attached to the
proposed ordinance, the Renaissance Village tract includes 25
tax parcels. Delaforum could not learn the current total
assessment nor confirm the reputed $32,500 county obligation as
this article was being prepared.
special tax would be collected each September as part of county government's
normal annual levy.
stressed that property owners outside of Renaissance Village
would be taxed at the same then-current rate as those in the
rest of the county. Renaissance Village owners would pay school
taxes at their full assessment at the same then-current rates as
other property owners. Brandywine and New Castle County Vocational-Technical
school districts would receive the full amounts of revenue due them.
As things
now stand, Renaissance Village properties would be
assessed at 1983 market values, as is all real estate in the
county. Any general reassessment in the future would be applied to Renaissance
special tax would be treated as any other property tax. In
addition to interest and penalties, Renaissance Village property
owners also would have to pay what the proposed ordinance refers
to a 'backup special' tax. That would be up to $144 on
market-priced residential units, $71 on 'workforce' units and
10¢ per square foot on commercial property.
Properties with delinquent tax obligations would also have a tax
lien placed against them.
Fry said
that the special tax, like other tax obligations, would have
priority over other debt in the event of bankruptcy affecting
any Renaissance Village property.
said the net effect of Council's approving the financing plan
will be "to help Claymont become a thriving community."

Overview of the endocannabinoid system (ECS)
Endocannabinoids (eCBs) are endogenous lipids that activate the cannabinoid receptors, which are G-protein-coupled receptors also activated by Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component of marijuana [1, 2]. To date, two cannabinoid receptors have been cloned (CB1 and CB2) and two major eCBs have been characterized in mammals, N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide, AEA) [3] and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) [4, 5]. More recently other molecules, such as 2-arachidonoyl-glyceryl ether (noladin ether) [6], O-arachidonoyl-ethanolamine (virhodamine) [7] and N-arachidonoyl-dopamine [8], have been proposed as possible CB receptor agonists, yet their biological activity and pathological relevance await clarification.
Cannabinoid receptors
CB1 and CB2 are the best-studied molecular targets of AEA and 2-AG, which bind to and activate them with different affinity. CB1 is the most abundant G-protein-coupled receptor found in the brain [9] and is responsible for mediating most of the neurobehavioral effects of THC [10, 11]. Consistent with the known eCB central effects, CB1 is abundant in brain areas involved in memory (e.g. hippocampus), motor coordination (e.g. basal ganglia, cerebellum) and emotional processes (e.g. prefrontal cortex) [12, 13]. CB1 is preferentially localized at the presynaptic level and eCBs synthesized by postsynaptic neurons can travel backwards and inhibit neurotransmitter release [14], i.e. the so-called retrograde signalling [15]. CB1 is also present in peripheral tissues, including adipose tissue, liver and skeletal muscle [16].
CB2 is predominantly expressed in immune cells [17], where it appears to play a role in mediating the immunosuppressive effects of eCBs. However, recent findings suggest that CB2 is also present at low levels in some areas of the brain [18-20], where it is markedly activated upon insults [21], although the molecular details are rather complex and poorly understood.
Recently, AEA and 2-AG were reported by some authors [22], but contradicted by others [23], to activate GPR55, an orphan G-protein-coupled receptor, which shares low sequence homology (10–15%) with the other two CB receptors [24, 25].
AEA also interacts with several non-cannabinoid receptors [26], the best characterized of which is the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel, activated by AEA at an intracellular site [27]. Other evidence has documented the interaction of eCBs with peroxisome-proliferator-activating receptors (PPARs) α and γ, although at high concentrations [28], with major implications for gene expression regulation [29].
eCB synthesis and degradation
AEA and 2-AG are prototypes of a much larger class of lipids, termed N-acyl-ethanolamines (NAEs) and monoacylglycerols (MAGs) respectively. Individual members of each group differ in length and degree of unsaturation of their acyl chains. Many potential biological activities have been attributed to NAEs and MAGs in vivo [30, 31]. However, most of them do not bind to CB receptors but seem to have an 'entourage effect', whereby they potentiate the activity of AEA or 2-AG at their receptors by inhibiting their degradation [32]. Due to their lipophilic nature, eCBs cannot be stored in vesicles. Indeed, it is widely accepted that, unlike other mediators, eCBs are synthesized and released on demand through multiple biosynthetic pathways, which include N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine-hydrolysing phospholipase D for AEA [33] and sn-1-specific diacylglycerol lipases for 2-AG [34], as well as other biosynthetic enzymes that await further investigation [35].
The degradation of eCBs also occurs through multiple pathways, which include fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) [36, 37] and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) [38], the main hydrolytic enzymes for AEA and 2-AG respectively. Additionally, other enzymes showing an 'amidase signature', such as FAAH-2 [39] and the N-acylethanolamine-hydrolysing acid amidase [40] which belongs to the choloylglycine hydrolase family, might hydrolyse AEA, thus releasing arachidonic acid and ethanolamine. Furthermore, both AEA and 2-AG, possibly under conditions in which the activity of MAGL or FAAH is suppressed, might become substrates for cyclooxygenase-2 and give rise to the corresponding hydroperoxy derivatives [41]. These metabolites show different activity at CB1/2 or other ECS elements [42], or appear to act at new binding sites, giving pharmacological effects still obscure at molecular level [43, 44]. Overall, the physiological relevance of the oxidative pathways of eCBs still needs to be clarified [41]. The degradation of eCBs by specific hydrolases follows their transport inside the cell [45]. Because of their lipophilic nature, AEA and 2-AG can diffuse passively through lipid membranes. However, it appears that diffusion is accelerated by a rapid and selective carrier system. AEA appears to be taken up by several cell types at least in part via a facilitated transport mechanism, possibly mediated by a purported AEA membrane transporter, which can also carry 2-AG and is therefore referred to as endocannabinoid membrane transporter (EMT) [46]. Very recently, a truncated FAAH, termed FAAH-1-like anandamide transporter, has been reported in neural cells, where it serves as an intracellular carrier that binds AEA but does not cleave it [47]. Recent insights suggest that the metabolic control of the endogenous tone of AEA is complemented by intracellular trafficking via intracellular binding proteins, particularly fatty acid binding proteins [48], albumin and heat shock protein 70 [49], and storage in specific reservoirs (adiposomes) (for a detailed review see ref. [50]). Altogether biosynthetic, hydrolytic or oxidative enzymes exert a metabolic control of the endogenous tone, and hence the biological activity of eCBs, AEA, 2-AG and their congeners, together with their target receptors and metabolic enzymes, purported EMT and intracellular transporters, form the ECS (Fig. 1).

Faeries - Bastion Press
Faeries get a bad rap in my opinion. Even the cover of this book sends the idea that they are all the commercialized version of elves (before Peter Jackson gave us his interpretation of Legolas) that were made popular in cartoons and animated films. The stories of the Fey in cultures where they originated give us a much darker portrayal than the images that have made them popular. They were creatures not to be taken lightly and to deal with only if you had to and most times that would not end well for the even the best intentioned if they were not careful.
Other than the image on the cover I think this book does a fair job of trying to put them in a light more consistent with the legends that they sprang from. The book is a D20 offering so it has much of the overhead that comes with that in the way of prestige classes, feats and the like. If you are a 3.x player then these are at least average for offerings from that period. The book offers details on the lands of the Fey and background on the races that can be used in any game system as well as other material that taken into systems or settings. I think this is one of the better Bastion Press offerings I have read and am glad to have it in my collection.

I know a lot of people will already be fans, but if anyone out there has missed it, terry Pratchett's book Lords and Ladies, does a damned fine job of showing faeries how they are supposed to be done.

The Goodman Games Complete Guide to Fey is also worth getting, if you don't have it already. I revised it a bit, and ad-mixed it with the Bastion Press book, when I was running my own 3.X mash-up.

@shortymonster I have not read that. I am not sure i have ever read an Pratchett (and I know I should have). I will be sure and pick it up. Do I need to read anything else before it (is it part of Discworld?)
@ravencrowking That is one of the Complete Guides I have still yet to pick up. I have found those to be good supplements across the board,

Ethnic differences in hormone replacement prescribing patterns
- Citations

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether prescription patterns of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) differ in African-American, Asian, Latina, Soviet immigrant, and white women.
DESIGN: Retrospective review of computerized medical records.
SETTING: The general internal medicine, family medicine, and gynecology practices of an academic medical center.
PATIENTS: Women aged 50 years or older with at least one outpatient visit from January 1, 1992, to November 30, 1995.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Use of HRT was defined as documentation of systemic estrogen use. The main predictor variable was self-identified ethnicity. Age, diagnosis (coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, or breast cancer), and median income were included in the analysis. Of the 8,968 women (mean age, 65.4 years) included, 50% were white, 20% Asian, 15% African American, 9% Latina, and 6% Soviet immigrants. Whites (33%) were significantly more likely to be prescribed HRT than Asians (21%), African Americans (25%), Latinas (23%), or Soviet immigrants (6.6%), p<0.01 for each. Multivariate analysis, comparing ethnic groups and controlling for confounding variables, showed that Asians (odds ratio [OR] 0.56; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.49, 0.64), African Americans (OR 0.70; 95% CI 0.60, 0.81), Latinas (OR 0.70; 95% CI 0.58, 0.84), and Soviet immigrants (OR 0.14; 95% CI 0.10, 0.20) were each less likely to be prescribed HRT than were white women. Although women with osteoporosis were more likely to receive HRT (OR 2.28; 95% CI 1.71, 2.99), those with coronary heart disease were not (OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.68, 1.09).
CONCLUSIONS: Physicians at this medical center were more likely to prescribe HRT for white women and women with osteoporosis. Further study is needed to address whether these differences in HRT prescribing result in different health outcomes.

He was smart, he had experience. She knew that nothing she did or threatened him with would change his temper.
At first, being abused by the man who vowed to love her until death parted them seemed to be her lot. Something she deserved because ultimately she spurred on this rage, this monster that he became the moment she revealed her secret to him.
She knew when they shared their first kiss that the truth would one day be inevitably released, but she always believed that she had control over when, where and how it would emerge to his knowledge.
She was wrong. Horribly wrong.
The first time he lost it she figured she deserved it. It was the afternoon that he finally learnt who she was and allowed the truth to seep into his veins.
His outburst was seemingly natural. His rage understandable.
When she thought was that he would do one of two things. Either come to terms with it, move past and remain at her side as a loyal and loving husband as he had been. Or he would never accept it and they would part ways.
Never in her wildest fears did she imagine he would become what he did. Never did she think his family would impose on them both this tormenting form of restriction.
At first however, she did find that their reasoning made sense for both of them and that in time there was hope to somehow move past it.
It was only a few weeks after their little family sit down that she learnt his own dark secrets, that he had always been a monster and had previously injured and hospitalised woman who dared stand up to him or dare be anything but jewellery on his arm.
The shouting never stopped and his choice of words grew darker, it was clear he could not accept the truth nor the accept the reality of the situation his family imposed. He was a steam pot ready to blow its lid and she had to tread very carefully.
He was smart, he had experience. She knew that nothing she did or threatened him with would change his temper.
It didn't take long for her to be back on the floor with him kicking at her and hitting at her. Days would go past without any incident, in fact they seemingly avoided each other at all costs whenever they could.
He would come home whenever he wanted to and expected only food to be ready. No more idle conversation nor sharing a bed.
They lived apart and the hardest part was explaining it to their small son.
Naturally he wanted to know why daddy was always angry, thinking that he had done something to cause daddy to never speak to him or spend any time with him.
It was hard, but it was easier than attempting to fix anything with her husband because not one word could be exchanged without a blowout.
He would find things to be mad about, reasons to want to scream at her and attack her with his fists and words. Eventually she became numb, it was routine.
They'd never see each other, then they would. He would ask something about the house or the car, the garden or anything insignificant like what she was wearing or the new coffee coasters in the sitting room. They would fight, she would try not to retaliate at first but the words from his tongue were always harder than the power of his fists and eventually they would begin a screaming match. She would threaten him by reminding him of his family restrictions and he would leave her with bruises.
Unlike the common abusive spouse who will buy flowers or gifts to manipulate their partners, he never did. He had no reason to manipulate her and he knew that. Their marriage became a business agreement, or more so a gym contract.
Two years later she found solace in the one thing she knew would bring about the end to both the agreement and her life. She knew it was possibly the biggest risk of her existence, more than the risk she took wedding him with her past hovering over like a black storm cloud.
But she felt happy, again. It was good to be noticed, to be loved and touched by hands that would never hurt her.
It was the only way to feel whole again, completely and utterly at peace in the company of someone she trusted with all her being and who she knew shared the same agony of the past.
Although their son found out, he never did tell his father. He too began to live in fear of his wrath and temper.
He never endured beatings, but he bore the brunt of his tongue's cruelty. Shoving was normal, even having his father's first pressed to his cheek became something he grew accustomed to.
In fact she could see him changing from an innocent child into a timid and confused young man, always eager to please and bend to the whims of anyone willing to let him fit in because he didn't have any place at home.
She ended the affair, quickly. Things were growing harder to conceal and she felt her soul slipping to the man with a gentle touch.
Everything she wanted was in him, but she had to proceed with the arrangement in order to ensure any type of future for her son.
In the past fourteen months she had found means to coexist with her brut of a husband, and at times found herself pitying him because she understood that he too had demons of his past and that her secret had ultimately uncaged the beast he had worked so very hard to keep away.
Standing at the window watching her son and husband arguing in the driveway made her realize that she had surrendered herself to the whim of his family, that she had sold her dignity and soul for a price.
Was enduring his constant tormenting abuse worth it? Did it do any justice to the young boy who grew up to be everything she never wanted him to be?
Their cars head off down the street, the morning sun on the skyline glimmering on a beautiful day and she thought about all of these things that remained locked inside her chest.
Burdens eating away at her, dreams lost and corrupted, a life never to be because of her decisions and her greed.
Her wrist was blue from the grip of his hand the night before, sore and tender. Her finger ran along the vein in her wrist and suddenly everything around her fell silent. She could almost hear her heart beat as her finger caressed her wrist.
Would it save her from her heartache of losing the only person who could bring her peace and happiness? Was it too late for this now after every year she endured? Would her son ever know why and what would that do to him?
The sound of a door closing tore her from the silence of her mind and she looked up again, out the window. It was him, here, now. Why?
