"Sympathetic and caring staff for emergency dental appointment"
About: Crosshouse Hospital / Oral Surgery & Medicine Crosshouse Hospital Oral Surgery & Medicine KA2 0BE
Posted by Toothache patient (as ),
Having a dental phobia, I was very anxious when I needed an emergency appointment due to horrendous toothache. When I arrived I was taken in early, which was great and was met by 2 nurses and a dentist. I explained that I was a dental phobic and they all were fantastic with me. Talked me through everything and even a reassuring pat on the shoulder to tell me not to worry. Unfortunately with the pain I was in I can't remember the name of the dentist. Otherwise I would be praising her for her truly sympathetic and caring manor shown to me when I needed help. A true credit to the NHS. Tooth was pulled and no more pain since. Thank you so very much.
Response from Eunice Goodwin, Patient Feedback Manager for NHS Ayrshire and Arran, Quality Improvement and Governance Team, NHS Ayrshire and Arran 16 months ago
Dear Toothache patient,
I think toothache is like no other pain and I fully understand why you were so glad to get rid of it. Thank you for sharing your story with us. I will make sure it gets passed to the team so they know how you felt about your care. While you do not know which dentist is was, I suspect she may recognise the story herself. I am glad it was a caring and sympathetic experience you had.
best wishes,

Ground Flax Seed: Flax seed has many health benefits. It helps fight cholesterol, heart disease and cancer. What you may not know is that it is also great for constipation, depression and your immune system. All things that sometimes give you trouble during and after pregnancy. It is packed full of Omega 3's and Omega 6. Both of these are very important while pregnant and nursing, so I try to incorporate it whenever possible. Along with smoothies, it goes nicely in oatmeal and pancakes too!
Coconut Water: Yes, that's right. I said coconut water, not coconut milk. Though coconut milk is full of good things too! Basically, coconut water is what Gatorade, Powerade and Vitamin Water wishes they could be. Everyone in your family can benefit from drinking coconut water, particularly in the summer, but there are some great benefits for pregnancy and nursing. Loss of electrolytes is what causes dehydration. While water alone is excellent for you, it does not replace the electrolytes your body is losing! I have found this electrolyte packed drink incredibly helpful while breastfeeding. I have a lot going out of my body right now and this really helps replenish me. It also helps with heartburn and keeps things "moving" to prevent constipation. This is also the perfect drink while you are in labor. You don't need to drink nearly as much as you do water to hydrate, meaning you can take a sip here and there and know your body has what it needs to continue. Not only that, because it pumps your body full of electrolytes, vitamins and minerals it really increases your energy level! Coconut water has so many more benefits than I can list here, google it!
Kefir or Yoghurt: Probiotics are an important part of strengthening the immune system. This is important when you are pregnant especially because your immune system takes care of your baby more than it takes care of you! It is also important for digestion, another thing that is compromised while pregnant. The digestion process slows down so your body has time to absorb more nutrients and as your pregnancy continues the baby begins smooshing stomach making it even more difficult. Probiotics also find their way to your milk, helping your little one develop healthy immune and digestive systems! A fantastic benefit to using Kefir or yoghurt (particularly greek yoghurt) is it's also a great source of protein. Something that is vital during pregnancy and breastfeeding!
Leafy Greens: I'm not gonna lie, green smoothies are something I struggle with at times. However, during pregnancy and while nursing our body requires a lot more iron. While pregnant we need it for the increased blood supply to prevent anemia and while nursing we need it because a lot of our iron is going to the baby. Leafy greens are perfect for this because they are rich in both iron and calcium. The calcium plays a key role in your body being able to absorb the iron. Despite them not being my favorite thing, I have found that you can really mask the "green" taste quite well with fruits like pineapple, apple, ginger, banana and just about any selection of berries. It just so happens that all of those fruits are incredibly beneficial to you as well! So, if you are in need of some extra iron, try tossing in a big handful of spinach, kale or dandelion greens!

Most Helpful Guy
No general standard for me.
That said, it's rare for me to see a girl with short hair as appealing. Often she needs to have very elegant features like a long neck, narrow face, big eyes, something like this. Those girls often look nice with any hairstyle.
For most women, I think they look better if their hair frames their face, with something like near shoulder length. After that it no longer makes a difference to me, it's all about how the hair frames the face with the way I find women's faces appealing.11|00|0
Have you ever seen a woman whose hair you thought was too long?
I had a math teacher when I was in high school who let her hair down to show us how long it was and it reached the floor.
That seemed a tad too long (I imagine it gets awkward having sex with her), though she was quite pretty. Visually it didn't detract for me, I just imagined it must be a pain kind of dealing with all that hair if you were with her intimately.

I'm pretty sure most men prefer long hair.11|00|0

My Past Relationships.6:28 PM
I attended an all-girls Catholic Primary School in Singapore, famously known as CHIJ. Being in an all-girls school, I was surrounded by girls five days a week so I hardly had the chance to meet guys (apart from my neighbours). Puberty hadn't hit at this point, so it wasn't that bad to be surrounded by girls all the time. Life in Primary School was great, and I loved every bit of it. However, after taking my Primary School Leaving Examination in Singapore, we left for Perth, Western Australia. In Australia, I attended a High School that was of a walking distance to our new house. It was a co-ed school. The first few days were tough. There were guys everywhere and their presence made me uncomfortable. It was something that I couldn't get used to, considering the fact that I spent the last six years being surrounded by girls.
Once, a guy came up to me and requested to borrow a pen. I struggled so hard to make eye contact, and when I eventually did, ended up telling him that I didn't talk to guys. Unfortunate for me, he yelled as loud as he could, announcing to my classmates that I was a lesbian. Upon hearing that, I felt so upset to be wrongly accused. Made myself a reminder never to answer a guy like that again, just in case another misunderstanding occurs in future.
As time went by, I slowly felt more comfortable around guys. Puberty had started by then. I began to notice guys, although none of them really appealed to me. One day, a friend told me that she had a crush on a guy. Feeling curious, I persuaded her to tell me who it was. After much persuasion, she told me that she would make me a deal. If I told her who I liked, she would tell me who she liked in return. In all honesty, it was a fair deal. Except, I didn't like anyone at the time. She refused to believe me despite my claims that I didn't have a crush on anyone. I was then told that the person could be someone that I found cute.
Told her that I found B cute. By that, I mean that I thought that he looked adorable (like a kid). She ended up asking him out for me, without my knowledge and permission. I was taken aback when she came back reporting to me that he had said yes to being with me. Although I didn't have any feelings towards him, I didn't know how to tell him the truth; that I only saw him as a friend. Thankfully, we 'broke' up after one week because I didn't seem interested (according to him). I felt so bad even though it was no fault of mine for leading him on. The funny thing was that we did nothing together, apart from sharing one hug. We didn't even hang out.
In my honest opinion, I wouldn't consider him one of my ex-boyfriends because:
1) I didn't have feelings for him to start off with.
2) We did nothing couple-like together.
3) It lasted a week with minimal interaction.
But I felt like it was important to discuss about my first interaction with a guy, just to give context to the story. Hence, Chapter 1: Mr B.
In High School, I was bullied for being Chinese and having a non-Australian accent that I ended up keeping quiet most of the time. I chose not to answer questions or talk to anyone, just because I didn't want to give anyone a reason to bully me. Unfortunately, doing this ended up igniting more bullying towards me. Classmates referred to me as mute, and would ask me to go back to 'China' (which I'm not even from). They would throw racial slurs at me, calling me Ching Chong and saying things like, "You eat rice everyday!" I cried everyday after school, kept praying that it was all a dream and that I was still studying in Singapore. It made me so upset that I ended up developing depression. My grades dropped drastically, from A to F.
Feeling lonely and depressed, I confided in an online friend on Friendster, a social networking website. R was Singaporean, also studying in Perth, and had come to Perth at the same time as I did. We shared many similarities, so it wasn't surprising that we got along very well. He would never fail to comfort me and was my pillar of support during those tough times. As time went by, I began to look forward to the end of each school day; just so that I could go home and talk to him on MSN. One fine day, he ended up confessing that he had something for me. There was butterflies in my stomach as soon as he confessed. There and then, I realised that I liked him too. It was the first time I experienced the feeling of love. Or well, puppy love?
R and I met up at Westfield Carousel that weekend, still as friends since he hadn't officially asked me out yet. There was nothing to do, so we decided to watch a random movie at Hoyts cinema. During the movie, I jumped in fear at a scary scene. R held out his hand in an attempt to comfort me, to which I ignored, pretending that I didn't see his outstretched hand. After a while, I jumped for the second time. This time, he grabbed my hand and just held it tight. Needless to say, I couldn't concentrate for the rest of the movie. We didn't exchange many words that day, letting actions take over instead, as we walked out of the cinema hand-in-hand.
When I got home, my mum wanted to talk to me.
👩🏻: Where did you go today?
👸🏻: Erm, Westfield Carousel.
👩🏻: With whom?
👸🏻: A friend.
👩🏻: Guy or girl?
👸🏻: Guy.
👩🏻: Alone or with friends?
👸🏻: Alone. Why are you asking?
👩🏻: My friend saw both of you holding hands.
I had absolutely no idea that someone had saw me in Carousel, let alone holding hands with a guy. Because we weren't officially a couple yet at the time, I didn't say anything except giggle and run away from embarrassment of being caught.
The week after was my birthday, so he came over to my place to celebrate it with me as I was having a birthday party at my place. Upon picking him up from the nearby bus stop, R knelt down on one knee with a jewellery box in his hand, and asked to be my boyfriend. It was so sweet, considering that it was the first time someone had done that for me. I nodded shyly, and he helped me put on a necklace (that he had bought for me as a birthday gift). Since he asked me out on the day of my birthday party, none of my friends knew that we were dating yet. Imagine their faces when they noticed us holding hands during the day. My friends weren't the only ones who found out that R and I were dating. In fact, my mum did too. We were talking in the kitchen when she noticed the necklace around my neck. "Who gave you that necklace? Your boyfriend?"
Feeling shy, I laughed nervously and skipped away, back to join my friends. Given my reaction, I think it may be safe to say that my mum took that as a 'yes' in response to her question. Every weekend, we would hang out together in the city. R would play snooker and pool with his friends, and I would just sit and watch. We would grab Bubble Tea and chill at a comic bookstore that he enjoyed hanging out at. Our relationship was really simple, but it made me really happy. One day, R called. He informed me that he would be going for a Church camp and would not be able to see me or contact me as he would be busy. With it being my first relationship, I couldn't help but be extremely clingy towards him. Hence, I pleaded for him not to go.
R comforted me, telling me that it was only 3 days. He would be back on on the 4th day, so we could see each other again after that. "Alright. But you have to call me or text me as soon as camp has ended. I'll miss you so much," I said. That 3 days felt like 3 months. I missed him so much that I would think of him every second. As you could possibly tell, I was crazily in love with him. Finally, the 4th day came. I waited by my phone all day, but no call or text message came through. I started to get worried. What if something happened to him?
After contemplating for a few minutes, I decided to send him a text message.
👸🏻: Hey R! Has your Church camp ended yet? Please call or text me as soon as you see this.
No reply.
After two hours passed, my phone beeped, informing me of a text message. I ran to my phone, hoping that it was R. It was, but it wasn't the message I was hoping to see.
🤴🏻: Go on MSN later at 9 pm. I have something to tell you.
My heart dropped. It sounded serious. I logged into MSN as soon as it was 9 pm, and waited intently for him to come on. As promised, he came online and started chatting to me:
🤴🏻: Hi. I have something to tell you.
👸🏻: Why do you sound so serious?
🤴🏻: Let's break up.
👸🏻: *in shock* What? Why?
🤴🏻: We aren't right for each other.
👸🏻: Why? What did I do wrong? Tell me please.
🤴🏻: Nothing. It's me, not you. (Classic.)
👸🏻: Please don't break up with me.
🤴🏻: Sorry. We have to.
👸🏻: Please. Tell me what I did wrong, I'll change.
🤴🏻: Sorry, we can still be friends.
And...that was it. Strangely enough, I didn't shed any tears although my heart hurt so badly. I spent the next few days wondering what I did to R that he would want to leave me. The answer didn't come to me. We had never fought prior to the break up, and everything was good between us. It then dawned on me that he requested for a breakup right after he got out from Church camp. Maybe something happened there. That's the only possibility that I could think of.
That weekend, I hung out with my friends from school, attempting to distract myself from the recent breakup. Walking past the state library, my friend whispered softly into my ear, "Marie, is that your boyfriend? Look! He's holding another girl's hand."
Disclaimer: No one knew about the breakup, so everyone thought that we were still together.
Looking up, that's what I saw. R was holding another girl's hand, walking past me. All of a sudden, he noticed my presence. Guess what he did? As soon as he saw me, he let go of the girl's hand and pretended that nothing happened between them. There and then, it hit me. He broke up with me because he met another girl at Church camp which he developed feelings for, which explained why he treated me so coldly when I contacted him. I had caught him red-handed, so his first reaction was to act guilty around me. I decided to walk away, ignoring his presence.
My friends chased after me, persuading me to just cry it out. Shaking my head, I announced that I wouldn't cry over a jerk, for he wasn't worth my time. Truth was, however, that I was heartbroken. I had been cheated on by a guy for the very first time, and it had to be my first love.
Life was better in the 3rd year of High School. I began making more friends, and it wasn't uncomfortable for me to be around guys anymore (maybe because I already had my first relationship). Around this time, I was actively blogging on Blogspot, and had a fair amount of blog readers on a daily basis. One day, I blogged that I was going to Timezone with my sister the next day. There was a comment below my post, by a guy, C.
C: Hey Marie, me too! I'm actually going to Timezone tomorrow too.
I thought nothing of it. After all, it was just a blog reader commenting on my blog post. The next day, I went to Timezone with my sister. We were playing a shooting game, so she placed her wallet on the floor so that it wouldn't get into the way of our game. All of a sudden, we saw someone run towards us at lightning speed before speeding away. My sister then discovered that her wallet was missing. She looked at me helplessly, while I looked around for someone to help.
A guy approached me.
👦🏻: Hi! Are you looking for a wallet?
👸🏻: Yes. Did you see it?
👦🏻: I saw a guy grabbing your friend's wallet from the floor and ran away. But it all happened too fast. When my brain finally processed what had happened, he had already escaped. Sorry.
👸🏻: It's okay. Thanks anyway. By the way, she's not my friend. She's my sister.
👦🏻: Ah, sorry. Anyway, you have a lovely smile.
👸🏻: *shy smile* Heh, thanks.
That night, I blogged a new blog entry about how my sister's wallet got stolen and how a guy had randomly told me that I had a lovely smile. Not expecting anything to happen, I published the post and headed to bed. The next day, I noticed a comment on my blog.
C: I'm the guy who told you that you have a lovely smile. I didn't think you would blog about me.
Whoa! Really? So the guy that I saw yesterday was C! We took our conversation to MSN, and began to chat a lot more about our personal life. At that time, I was still suffering from depression due to my inability to be accustomed to Australia. I had days where I needed a pillar of support, and he would always be there to listen to my sorrows and to give me advice. He was an excellent friend to me, and I was so appreciative. One day, I had a horrible day at school. When he called me, I poured out all my sorrows to him. All I wanted was a listening ear.
👦🏻: I'll cheer you up!
👸🏻: You can't. I'm too sad right now.
👦🏻: I know you'll cheer up when I tell you something.
👸🏻: Okay.
👦🏻: I like you.
👸🏻: *silence*
👦🏻: Hello? Are you still there?
👸🏻: Erm, yes.
👦🏻: Did you hear what I said? I like you.
👸🏻: I'll call you later, okay?
I know, anti-climax. But I was taken aback by the sudden confession that I couldn't reply him straight away. You see, I did like him so much more than a friend, but my first relationship scared me too much for me to have the courage to try again. I didn't know what to do, so I chose to left him hanging. Still young, I decided to ask my mum for permission to go into a relationship with him. What was I thinking? If I could go back in time, I would have never done such a stupid thing.
She shook her head and nagged at me to concentrate on my studies instead. So what did I do? I told him that my mum said no to dating, so I had to reject him. Upon doing that, my heart ached so badly as I realised that I had made the wrong decision. But alas, damage had been done. Nevertheless, we still remained friends. But we weren't as close as we used to be anymore. He stopped talking to me, clearly hurt by my rejection. At the same time, I felt so bad that I didn't know how to talk to him again (like how we used to). Things became really awkward between us.
Two years later, we found ourselves randomly having a conversation on Facebook. Honestly, I would never have expected for him to talk to me after the rejection. But I guess I was wrong; it happened. C confessed that he missed me, and that he still had feelings for me. In fact, he had never stopped loving me since Day 1. My heart melted instantly. I smiled, as I typed back to him on Facebook Messenger. "Well, C, actually, I still have feelings for you too," I confessed. We talked a bit about the past, and reminisced over the good memories we had with each other in the last few years. Then, he told me that he wanted to be with me.
Before I knew it, C asked me to be his girlfriend. And...I said yes.
After all, we had waited two long years because I had made a stupid decision. After some time, C announced that he would be moving back to Malaysia due to some family issues (his mum had passed away). He told me that he had to stay in Malaysia for 1 year, before returning to Perth. This resulted in us being in a long term relationship for several months. I was asked to wait for his return to Australia, which I did. C told me that he had to manage some important matters for the next few months, and that he may not be able to talk to me as much as he wanted to. Understanding that his family had issues to deal with, I told him not to worry about that.
Then, all of a sudden, he disappeared. He didn't come on MSN or Skype anymore, let alone chat with me. I didn't know what had happened to him, and tried contacting him to no avail. A year later, I gave up and felt in love with my current partner, Ken. 💑
Even then, I never stopped wondering what happened to my ex.
One day, C came on Facebook Messenger to talk to me. I was shocked to hear from him again. He apologised to me about what happened two years ago and asked whether I still wanted to talk after all that had happened. Without thinking, I said yes and this was what happened:
He told me that he had always known that he was in a relationship but couldn't remember who it was with. Since she was there at the hospital taking care of him, he assumed that she was his girlfriend. C confessed that even though he was with that girl who he thought was his girlfriend (instead of me), he never felt like he loved her and was confused for a while.
It was only after he talked to me after his one-year-long disappearance that he realised the truth. Hence, he broke up with that girl right after he had that conversation with me.
Does that mean that it was my fault that they broke up?
Basically, this was how the conversation went. Do you see how it reminds me of a Korean drama? In summary, C had a car accident, which resulted in him forgetting who his girlfriend was. He ended up assuming that someone else was his girlfriend because she was there by his hospital bed after the accident, when he was admitted to the hospital. C was really romantic though; considering the fact that he bought an air ticket for one month to see the girl of his dreams. Unfortunately, hopes were dashed when he ended up in a car accident.
By the way, it's not that I'm still thinking about C and our past relationship together. Because, I'm not. All I'm saying is that Korean dramas aren't as dramatic as we all assume it to be. Sometimes it does happen in real life. Like this instance.

Electrocardiography, or the measurement and interpretation of the electrical activity of the heart, is a vital component of many standard diagnostic testing procedures. An electrocardiograph, better known as an EKG or ECG, is an external device that records cardiac activity over a period of time for analysis. Tiger Medical Supplies offers a full line of EKGs, ranging from simple, portable devices to full-sized exercise monitors with equipment.
Diagnostics leaders Omron, Cardiac Science, GE, and Welch Allyn present high-quality, user-friendly, highly accurate EKGs to suit a wide variety of needs and budgets. Omron's portable ECG monitor, a cost-effective, lightweight device, is recommended for home use. It records transient symptoms such as heart pain, palpitations, and shortness of breath, which often do not occur during testing in the doctor's office. The one-piece monitor records cardiac activity during these episodes for further examination by the doctor.
Welch Allyn's CP 100™ and CP 200™ are portable as well but are larger and intended for professional use. The sleek, self-contained devices increase the efficiency of EKGs in any healthcare setting while reducing confusion and paperwork. Their three measurement modes, integrated printer, and connectivity-readiness, among other innovative features, make these monitors the perfect choice for regular use. The two models are similar, with the CP 200™ featuring advanced memory, screen, keyboard, and spirometry option. Both models may be equipped with interpretive software for a "second opinion" and may be upgraded with additional options and compatibility with CardioPerfect™ Workstation software.
Welch Allyn's CardioPerfect™ Workstation resting and exercise EKG modules decrease the redundant work steps, transcription and other human errors, loss of data, and general waste of precious time that often come with typical printed EKGs. The PC-based EKGs allow users to automatically transfer patient information and test data into most EHRs, sync with other types of cardiopulmonary test results, and save, share, and print data for thousands of patients, resulting in clinicians spending less time documenting and more time with patients. The system uses a simple acquisition module and sophisticated, yet user-friendly, software to transform any PC into a full-featured analytical EKG. The EKGs include everything necessary for use; the exercise EKG even includes an optional PC, printer, cart, and/or treadmill for immediate use. All resting and stress EKGs also include optional interpretive software for further analysis of data.
Cardiac Science produces a line of efficient, user-friendly EKGs with sophisticated software and a variety of options to meet different users' individual preferences and streamline workflow, increasing efficiency. The Burdick 8300 and 8500 resting EKGs are compact and practical with optional interpretation and all necessary components conveniently integrated to the main device; the 8500 features an improved screen and wireless option. The Quinton® Q-Stress® and 9500 Series cardiac stress test systems (exercise EKGs) are cart-based and include advanced software options, standard PC, printer, and hardware, and optional treadmills. The 9500 Series has the added advantage of a choice of mount - mobile cart or wall cabinet - as well as optional Bluetooth-enabling and/or touchscreen. The CareCenter MD™ workstation includes innovative software and a choice of resting or resting/stress software packages, some models with treadmills. The system is fully modular to allow for growth and upgrades at any time. All Cardiac Science EKGs are EHR-compatible; some, such as the 9500 Series and CareCenter MD™ workstations feature advanced networking even without an EHR system.
GE's portable MAC™ resting EKGs are sophisticated yet simple devices designed to withstand heavy and mobile use. All three models are lightweight and feature a built-in carrying handle. The MAC™ 800 is the most basic but most portable unit, weighing only 6.6 pounds, and features advanced options such as communications (LAN, modem, serial port, and SD) and internal memory. The MAC™ 1200 weighs more but is portable as well; its flexible configuration options include modem communications, automatic 10-second measurement and 40-EKG memory, and a specialized waveform display. The MAC™ 1600, the most advanced of the three, is a simple yet smart, modular device capable of updating at any time, including stress testing capabilities. It includes three measurement modes; options include LAN communications and 100-EKG internal memory capacity. The 1200 and 1600 incorporate a full alphanumeric keyboard in addition to designated function keys. All three MAC™ models are fully digital and feature GE's clinically proven Marquette 12SL ECG Analysis Program, integrated full-size thermal printer, dual power sources with automatic switching, and safe use in adult and pediatric patients.

Here is my situation:
Brandy& Melissa, this is my situation:
-- We (the father of the child and I) aren't married. Things that involve domestic violence have happened, so I decided that it was for the best that I pack my stuff and leave with my son. The father has anger issues, it seems. He is very abusive towards me, and says inappropriate things in front of our child (and our child is at a stage where mimicking is all he does). When I do point out that he can't be "cussing" in front of our child, he becomes violent towards me, and actually tries to teach our child to disrespect me by calling me names, etc. The point is, he is violent. I also have learned recently that he was involved in some child porn stuff, and that he is to complete a psycho-sexual evaluation-- because he receives supervised visits with his other 2 children-- to be granded unsupervised ones. When I would periodically leave our son with him to go to school or run errands, I'd come back to our son wearing the same diaper he was wearing in the morning or before I've left. He is lazy, and does not know how to properly take care of our son. He leaves hazardous items all over, and I just can't go on like this. The safety of my child first. I can't allow overnights nor unsupervised visits, because his misconduct will likely continue to the detriment of our child.
Was the domestic abuse ever documented by a law enforcement person? Doctor? Anything you have that can show a pattern of this behavior?
Do you have anything through the courts stating who has custody?
If I understand correctly you don't live together now, right? If you do would you like resources on how to get out of the situation?

We demonstrate that temporal broadening of transform-limited nanosecond pulses during gain saturation in a Nd:YAG amplifier can produce substantial linewidth narrowing. Measurements of linewidths with two-color Doppler-free saturated spectroscopy in I2 show reductions in linewidth by more than a factor of 2.5 from 58 to 20 MHz when a double-pass amplifier is used. The observed temporal broadening is described well by a simple gain saturation theory.

text: I've been trying to get bind running in a chroot jail on fedora 11, and discovering the insanely convoluted nonsense that is dnssec-configure and the init.d script time editing of named.conf. WTF goes on here? Why all the cryptic nonsense to try and dynamically modify the named.conf file with separate tools? Why not just leave it the way it is obviously intended to work by the upstream bind maintainers? If you want dnssec, you put the required gibberish in the named.conf file. If you don't want it, you don't put it in the file? Everything else in bind is cryptic gibberish in named.conf. What makes the dnssec cryptic gibberish so special that it needs its own separate tool to modify your config files behind your back? (Especially since the tool appears to be utterly confused by moving the files to a chroot jail directory).

Does anyone know how to make a standing figure cake? Specifically an Elmo cake...I've only vetured as far as sitting figures, never a standing one.
I'm a little scared because when I watch all these cake deco shows, they've got all these wood-shopped carvings, pipes and framing for their cakes, is that the only way to do it?

I have seen some made with the Wilton 3D bear cake pan, decorated to look like Elmo.
Here is a link I found that explains some of it.

This is a minor issue, but it's good you could work around it. It be nice to avoid it if possible though, so is there an existing directory on the T2 where it would be appropriate to put the files?

That's no good! Just to make sure we're on the same page, the database file you're talking about is the file on your computer with a long funny name that ends in .prc, correct?
The errors you are seeing are actually not big problems. Mostly it's showing that Python on Windows is behaving a bit differently than I'm used to. I can fix that on my own though. Let's focus here, first:

The getannotations.py script isn't smart enough to know where the reader is plugged in. On Windows, the reader should show up as a new drive (F:\ or G:\ or something, depending on your computer). Try passing that drive as an argument to getannotations. (That is
getannotations.py F:\
. You may need at add quote marks around the drive name:
getannotations.py "F:\"
.) If it works, you'll get a list of files you've annotated and a prompt to choose one of them to download onto your computer. Chances are it won't work, though, but the error message will likely be useful.
This will likely be a bit of work to get things fixed, but I'm 90% sure we can get it to work in the end.

Gee, isn't it always Advertising Week in New York? Isn't that why illegal immigrants and other down-and-outers, sometimes dressed as clowns, or sagging under the weight of sandwich boards, are handing out flyers on every corner? At any rate, Advertising Week has its own advertising, as in this insiders' outdoor attack, engineered by the Jager Group of Grand Rapids, Mich., on behalf of the Outdoor Advertising Association of America. Creatives who lent their imprimatur to the effort include Alex Bogusky, Rick Boyko, Lee Clow, Sal DeVito, Mike Hughes, Stan Richards and Tracy Wong. "The goal of the campaign is to catch the attention of the advertising community and convey that when it comes to creative freedom and opportunity, outdoor is the medium," according to the agency. And outdoor is indeed the medium here; the graffiti-style assault includes sidewalk graphics, phone kiosks, bus shelters, bus tails, mobile billboards, elevator and digital urban displays, restroom displays, receptasigns, static clings and projection media, in addition to Times Square spectaculars. What, no clown wearing a sandwich board!? Moreover, there's a website, www.outsiders-unite.com, where ad people can "join the movement." What movement? "Outdoor has always been somewhat the outsider of the media world, so this is a movement to leverage that perception," says senior AD Rob Jackson. "We hope the simple idea, street-level approach and nontraditional tactics will resonate with our audience and build some enthusiasm and momentum for the medium. We hope it takes on a life of its own and spreads through outdoor markets across the country." Indeed, the concept will be launched in San Francisco and Los Angeles later this fall.

Everybody should have off-site backup of their files. For most people, the biggest threat is fire, but here in California, the most likely disaster you will encounter is an earthquake. Only a small fraction of houses will burn down, but everybody will experience the big earthquake that is sure to come in the next few decades. Of course, fortunately only a modest number of houses will collapse, but many computers will be knocked off desks or have things fall on them.
To deal with this, I've been keeping a copy of my data in my car — encrypted of course. I park in my driveway, so nothing will fall on the car in a quake, and only a very large fire would have risk of spreading to the car, though it's certainly possible.
The two other options are network backup and truly remote backup. Network backup is great, but doesn't work for people who have many terabytes of storage. I came back from my latest trip with 300gb of new photos, and that would take a very long time to upload if I wanted network storage. In addition, many TB of network storage is somewhat expensive. Truly remote storage is great, but the logistics of visiting it regularly, bringing back disks for update and then taking them back again is too much for household and small business backup. In fact, even being diligent about going down to the car to get out the disk and update is difficult.
A possible answer — a wireless backup box stored in the car. Today, there are many low-cost linux based NAS boxes and they mostly run on 12 volts. So you could easily make a box that goes into the car, plugs into power (many cars now have 12v jacks in the trunk or other access to that power) and wakes up every so often to see if it is on the home wifi, and triggers a backup sync, ideally in the night. read more »

The UnGagged convention promises to present just as diverse a mixture of topics.

Venue and Pricing For UnGagged

The venue provides guests with lots of opportunities to have fun in between speakers and other convention activity. You can get accommodations at Caesars Palace at reduced rates if you attend the conference. Ticket prices for UnGagged are as follows:
Early Bird Full Pass – If you book before Sept. 15, the price for a full pass is $995.
Full Pass + Accommodations – $1,349.
These ticket prices will go up as the date of the convention approaches. There is also a special deal where you can get free accommodations if you buy 4 or more tickets, so if you know other people who might like to attend it would be beneficial to travel as a group.
Value of UnGagged
UnGagged Black Hat World conference is an unusual opportunity to hear some cutting edge information and meet many experienced and knowledgeable marketers. For people who generally access information online, it can be fun as well as educational to see live speakers and meet people face to face. Since it's sponsored by Black Hat World, you can be sure it will be far more than simply another typical online marketing event. Attending UnGagged can be a great investment in your future as well as an enjoyable weekend in Las Vegas. I will be there and I hope to meet you there too!

Sustainability, the Journal of Record, has published a special issue on institutional nitrogen footprints.
iLEAPS 2017 Conference Registration NOW OPEN!
A report on the South Asia Nitrogen Conference organized by the South Asia Nitrogen Centre and the Indian Nitrogen Group is now available below. The report entitled 'Reactive nitrogen assessment in South Asia' is the first written contribution from the South Asia Nitrogen Centre.
On the 27th Janaury, Mark Sutton, Chair of INI, was interviewed by Dr. Andi Horvath for "Up Close", the online audio talk show of research, opinion and analysis from the Univiersity of Melbourne, Australia.
The interview, entitled "Global warming's companion crisis: Reactive nitrogen and its threat to human and planetary health". can be found here
Also, there are streaming and download options on the page, plus a full transcript.
Additionally, a SoundCloud version (not available to listeners in China) is here
The University of São Paulo's (USP) Center of Nuclear Energy in Agriculture (CENA) and the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) announce the São Paulo School of Advanced Science on the unequal distribution of nitrogen in the world and its consequence on the environmental sustainability under a scenario of climate changes.
The School is funded by the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP). Other collaborators are Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE), the University of Brasilia (UnB), and the International Nitrogen Initiative (INI). The 10-day course will consist of lectures, theoretical lessons, a technical fieldwork, literature discussion sessions, and student poster presentations.
About 100 graduate students, 50 from Brazil and 50 from other countries will be selected to participate in this São Paulo School of Advanced Science. Applicants must be currently enrolled in a graduate program. We encourage applications from students from different academic disciplines (natural, social and human sciences, engineering) provided their academic work and study is related to nitrogen cycles and related topics. Applications are due by 14:00 São Paulo, Brazil time on 30 May 2016.
For more information: http://espca.fapesp.br/school/school_of_advanced_science_on_nitrogen_cyc...
In order to support stringent policy (the Swiss Federal Council defined the goal to reduce ammonia emissions in 2030 by about 40% and nitrogen oxide emissions by about 50% compared to 2005), Switzerland provides information on nitrogen, its use and its perils in the form of an animation movie – see http://www.bafu.admin.ch/luft/00575/11210/index.html?lang=en.
An update on the latest activities in Nitrogen has been sent in December 2015. Please sign up for future Nitrogen alerts by signing up to the INI-Europe mailing list (see above). Also, we are happy to disseminate information on your relevant activities – please let us know via e-mail to email@example.com. The full text of Nitrogen alert 3/15 is available here:

Mr. MICA. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to instruct and yield myself such time as I may consume.
Madam Speaker, I want to take a little bit of time to explain to you and my colleagues and others who may be listening to this debate about what's happening now. The other side of the aisle has just offered a motion to instruct, and we're going to conference on an important piece of legislation. That's the transportation bill that sets the transportation policy for the United States of America.
For all of our transportation projects, those projects that would be eligible, we identify the terms of participation for States and local governments and everyone who is going to receive Federal funds for transportation projects. So all of that is very important.
It is important that we put people to work. When I go back home, I talk to people who lost their house, lost their job, and they want an opportunity to work. And you heard that, in fact, there have been nine amendments since the bill expired, and six of those extensions were passed under the Democrats. I've had to do three.
They had complete control of the U.S. House of Representatives, the United States Senate, and the White House, and still had to pass six extensions. Then I learned from our staff that they did not pass a single free-standing extension.
Before we left for Easter, I passed a freestanding extension to get us so that we wouldn't close down jobs, that we wouldn't stop contracts, that we wouldn't stop people working. Now they're asking us to take the Senate carte blanche, a proposal which was adopted by the Senate--not a total vote, but it was a bipartisan vote--and just adopt it in their motion to instruct.
Now, Madam Speaker, I just got through explaining the Constitution to a wonderful group of young people from the Stetson Baptist Christian School in DeLand, Florida, on the steps just a few steps from here--right out that door and down those steps--and they stood there. I explained to them that the Founding Fathers created two Houses. The first body that they created, most importantly, the Congress of the United States, a legislative branch with a House and, yes, young people and teachers and chaperones that were listening, and I said also with the Senate.
They did that because they wanted all of those opinions to come together and they wanted us to work, again, in a bipartisan fashion to come up with the best possible solution. Yes, they'd operated with Articles of Confederation with a unicameral government, but last time I checked down the hall, I think if we open those doors and look down there, there is the United States Senate, and this is the people's House of Representatives.
I also explained to the students, this is the only body in which the Members actually have to be elected. Everybody else can be appointed. The Senators can be appointed. The President, actually you could replace him by appointment, the Vice President. But the only Federal representative that they have is the House of Representatives.
But what they want to do is cast the participation of the House of Representatives aside and just adopt what the Senate has brought forward. I tell you that the House has worked hard.
Now, I didn't have the benefit of 6,300 earmarks, which my predecessor had, to pass a bill, so it's taken me a little bit longer, and a few days ago we did pass a bill. It wasn't a bill that we passed out of committee, H.R. 7, with all the Republican votes but one, and we tried to bring to the House. It wasn't the vote that we heard in committee for some 18 hours, most of the time consumed not with Republican amendments but with Democrat amendments, over a hundred Democrat amendments, and I said we're going to sit there as long as it takes and give everyone an opportunity to participate in this free and open process, which we are doing here. Today they propose closing down that free and open process. Let's just adopt what the Senate tossed over to us.
I say ``no,'' and I say ``no'' for a whole host of reasons. The Senate proposal is a proposal that will bankrupt the trust fund. The Senate proposal is a path to just building paths, to resurfacing, to short-term jobs, not answering the call of the people who sent us here to make certain that their transportation money, when they go fill up their gas tank, pay for 1 gallon of gas, 18.4 cents comes to Washington in the trust fund, and we spend it. That's what this sets the policy for, what's eligible for receiving those Federal dollars.
But we'll just forget there's a House of Representatives and cast that body aside. I think not.
I think even an eighth-grader from one of my schools at home can figure this out, Madam Speaker, and I just can't agree with this motion to recommit.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. MICA. Madam Speaker, at this time I have no further requests for time, and I yield myself the balance of my time.
I started out talking about how it's important for the legislative process to properly be fulfilled under the terms of the Constitution and separation of responsibilities in the legislative body. This motion, of course, would close all of that down. We'd accept what the Senate has done without all of the work many Members have put into it. And I didn't go to Webster Springs, but I did go to Beckley, West Virginia, where we held the first meeting to allow the other side of the aisle to present at the very first of these deliberations their viewpoint and their recommendations for trying to pass a long-term transportation bill.
We took many of those--as you heard, 60 percent of the recommendations form the other side. We took 100 amendments, considered them, and passed 20 during 18 hours of marking up and considering the bill. So we've tried to make this a bipartisan process and a full process that everyone gets to participate in. But now they're here telling us that we don't want the House to participate any further, and just take the Senate bill and go along.
Now they, of course, passed six extensions, short term, keeping things in turmoil during--I think we calculated about 14 months. I've had to do three in about the same period of time. The difference is, I didn't have 6,300 earmarks, I didn't control the other body or that house downtown, what do they call it? The White House. But they controlled them all, all the branches, and they couldn't git 'er done.
So, the Senate bill does not set a threshold on some of these environmental approvals that tie us up. And no one wants to step over any good environmental provisions. What we want to do is shorten a little bit the time that these things go under consideration. They go on and on. You heard Mr. Ribble talk: 15 years to approve some of the projects in his district, 7 years on average for simple processing if the Federal Government gets involved. And we keep repeating the same thing. You heard the speaker say it's like Groundhog Day around here, and we've got to stop the Groundhog Day, and we could do that by having the House provisions adopted.
There are a whole host of things wrong with the Senate bill, and I won't get into them. And I know it's been a bumpy road to get here. I've told folks that when I became chairman--and I think the ranking member, when he became ranking member, neither of us was handed an operating manual. So this has been a bumpy road to get here, and it is a difficult process, but we tried to include everyone in that process and come up with the best suggestions and recommendations.
Mr. Ribble's amendment, which is to streamline provisions of H.R. 7, is excellent. Well, we'll get more for less, and we can do it responsibly. Mr. Boustany from Louisiana's amendment getting the Highway Maintenance Trust Fund to get funds that are collected for improvement of the ports--actually they improve our ports that are so important to infrastructure. So there are many good provisions in our legislation. It's not what I would have exactly crafted or passed in the very beginning or brought out here, but it is a vehicle so that everybody can have consideration who has participated in this process.
So I submit to you, although it's been a bumpy road with some twists and turns--we didn't expect that the Senate bill is a path to fewer jobs; it's a path to fewer projects actually getting done. It's a path to build only paths, if you want to look at it that way. Unfortunately, it's also a path to a dead end for transportation.
So, I submit, Madam Speaker, that we take a different road, that we take a road to where we'll have more jobs. We could do more with less, and we can, I think, do a lot more for the American people in a very difficult time in our history in moving this great country forward and building our infrastructure.
With that, I'll yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. MICA. When I took over as ranking member and we had sort of a rank way in which earmarks were done, I cleaned up the process. I think earmarks, there can be bad legislative earmarks and bad administrative earmarks. When they're done behind closed doors, they're not properly vetted, they're not transparent, and they haven't had the sunshine, the antiseptic sunshine to let people know what's going on and they're not a worthwhile project that has true support, they shouldn't be considered, whether by the administration or legislatively. I think that we have a moratorium now, and I'd like to see a different way to present those requests. I think fundamentally under Article I of the Constitution, I think it's section 2, we should, as the House of Representatives, and we do earmark, even if we just put one line in that says that we'll turn all this money and responsibility over to the administration--that is an earmark. But we can do, and we should do better.

The Sega Genesis Game El Viento is a game for the Sega Genesis and Mega Drive systems created by the company Renovation. It includes many elements from The Cthulhu Mythos, and concerns the activities of a Cult of Hastur called the Hastur Group in New York City in the 1920's.
The plotEdit
In the game, a sorceress named Annette (or alternately Annet) who is descended by blood from the god, Hastur, must use her supernatural powers to prevent the Hastur Group from summoning Hastur to New York City. In this she is opposed by the members of the Hastur Group, including it's Bishop, Henry, and another sorceress descended from Hastur's accursed bloodline name Restiana. Besides these threats, the gangster, Vincent De Marco, is working with the Hastur Group for his own purposes.
During the course of the game, Annette runs afoul of many Mythos creatures who have been allied with the Hastur Group, including Byakhee, Night Gaunts, Migo, Serpent Men, and an earthly manifestation of Hastur himself.
The mechanicsEdit
The game El Viento is a sidescrolling platformer in the mode of Castlevania, Metroid and similar games. As Annette proceeds through the game, she can fight with sorcery (which must recharge after each use) and a metallic boomerang. During the games progress, her sorcerous powers will increase, allowing her to use new variants of her power.

Form Designer: Some of the fields are not appearing in my formAsked by tshaver on December 08, 2016 at 09:15 AM
I created the Starter company plus form - and have been making slight edits to the Design over the course of the week. I was testing an app "Quiz Form" and I didnt like it and wanted to disable it (which I went to integrations and got rid of the unrecognized one).
Now the fields that were a part of my quiz form questions - are not appearing in the Design feature
Please advise.
JotForm Support
I am sorry I cannot understand what do you mean by "design feature"? Would you please view the revision history of your form which you've the issue?
You may wish to review our user guide which is related to this topic. You can revert your form back to an older one by this way.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to ask.
Thank you!
"Design Feature" being when editing the form - clicking "design" so I can format the form using the editor or CSS. The fields being used by my previously used Form Quiz feature are missing now. I suspect the app is doing something to my data but I do not know how to stop it.
JotForm Support
I cloned your form and I can see that there are Show/Hide Field conditions.
Please take note that by default, the hidden fields will not appear in the Form Designer. A workaround is to click the "Line Layout" section under the Design tab. Here's a screen capture:
Hope that helps. Thank you.

This was a nice hotel with ample parking. It is located in an area with plenty of other hotel options close by as well as shopping and dining. The foyer is small but has seating and restaurant in it for those who are looking for a place to relax and get a casual bite to eat. That said, you can also buy your breakfast here as no complimentary breakfast is provided. Standard small "Market" with some snacks, drinks, etc. to purchase that is located next to front desk. Staff is very friendly, motivated and helpful. The room I had was very nice and included a small refrigerator inside a cabinet...but no microwave. I thought that was pretty standard appliance in hotel rooms but apparently not the Courtyard. Bed was very comfortable with nice but small pillows. I found the area around the hotel to be nice to take a jog on with plenty of sidewalks to run on. The courtyard itself was nice and had seating to enjoy sitting outside in the evening. I'd have no problem staying here again but I'd probably choose a hotel that provided complimentary breakfast over it, all things being equal.

text: ArchiveIsrael kills Palestinian fighters Israeli aircraft fired three missiles at a facility of the resistance group Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades in Gaza City, killing three fighters and wounding five, Palestinian hospital officials say. 05 Feb 2006 04:07 GMT Palestinians gather after the building is destroyed A second airstrike, several hours after the first strike early on Sunday, targeted a bridge near the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun that Palestinian fighters used to gain access to rocket-launching sites, the Israeli military said. Palestinian security officials and witnesses said the two missiles that were fired landed in an empty field near the border with Israel, and the Israeli military said it couldn't confirm the missiles hit their target. The three fighters killed in the first strike were senior Al Aqsa field operatives, the hospital said. Field operatives plan and carry out rocket attacks and other assaults on Israeli targets. Some of the dead and wounded were pulling away in a car from the targeted building when a missile struck, leaving their vehicle an unrecognisable heap of charred and twisted metal. Four of the wounded were security personnel guarding Preventive Security headquarters near the Al Aqsa facility, the hospital said. Deterrence? The Israeli military said the strike was meant to deter rocket attacks on Israel from the Gaza Strip, such as one that wounded an Israeli baby and two adults in a kibbutz in southern Israel on Friday. After that attack, claimed by Islamic Jihad fighters, and another one Friday in which rockets landed near the city of Ashkelon, Israel also fired dozens of artillery rounds at northern Gaza and eastern Gaza City. "God willing, our rockets, our self-sacrificing martyrs and all the means of resistance will chase out the Zionists from every corner of our occupied land" Abu Mujahed,Al Aqsa memberThe Israeli military said the facility targeted in the first airstrike served as a training camp for Al Aqsa operatives, and as a rocket- and mortar-launching site. Palestinians said it was an Al Aqsa sports club and sports training camp. The car that was hit was travelling on a small street between the Al Aqsa facility and Palestinian Preventive Security offices. Dozens of Al Aqsa members and supporters of the affiliated Fatah Party gathered outside the hospital after the airstrike, some firing rifles in the air outside the morgue. One Al Aqsa member, who identified himself as Abu Mujahed, accused Israel of carrying out a targeted killing of the group's fighters, but the Israeli military denied that. "God willing, our rockets, our self-sacrificing martyrs and all the means of resistance will chase out the Zionists from every corner of our occupied land," Abu Mujahed said. "God willing, our revenge will come by deeds, and not by words." Source: Unspecified

In Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) tests, the G37 Coupe earns top 'good' scores in frontal and side impact, though it gets only 'marginal' in the seat-based rear-impact test and hasn't yet been rated in the new roof strength category.
Standard equipment on G37 models includes dual front airbags; side seat-mounted airbags; curtain airbags (roof-mounted in coupes, door-mounted in convertibles); stability and traction control; and active headrests. The G37 Convertible also is fitted with twin pop-up roll bars for more rollover safety. Adaptive cruise control and "preview braking," which uses sensors to predict an impact and applies some brake force to limit impact speeds, are options.
The 2011 Infiniti G37 Coupe and Convertible look like reasonably safe picks, even if they're not top-rated in all respects.

While corporate (B2B) credit card programs are forecasted to grow 85% by 2018, it's surprising that less than 15% of B2B organizations accept credit card payments. Sure, B2B card transaction costs – interchange and processing fees – were valid deterrents in the past; but it's a whole new digitized, consumerized, real-time world today. Simply: if you do not accept credit card payments, your customers may switch to a supplier that does. Download this eBook to learn more

Hi Niclas, sorry for the delay answer. I had a lots of mails waiting to me and I am just trying to keep the rythm of the list.....I will try to explain what happened below....nut first, let me explain why I disagree with you: Contrary to what you wrote. The rule (or contract) has been followed as long as we can. We try the most we can to stick to a released version. If you compare the lastest cocoon releases with older ones, you will see that we are distributing more released jars than ever. Of course, this no a 100% applied rule to all jars, because some jars takes longer to release or have diferent release cycles than me. As a sample take the jexl. They never released a version for long time. What we did were just to bundle a CVS version of that. And we stick to them as longer as we can. And that means we keep the contract. And yes, there are some exceptions to the rule (or contract). We use "common sense" while deciding when we can broke this rule. Sample: When an important bug is fixed on a 3rd party jar (from our POV) that has a current released version that seems to be important to us, we can replace it with a CVS version that include the fix. Now, why I updated Xalan: 1-Sylvain explained here on the list that I updated the jar because it fixed a Cocoon bug: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28680 It is amazing to see that the bug was reported first in Cocoon and later in Xalan. BTW, here is the xalan report: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30142 2-David Crossley from Forrest requested me to build a new xalan because they need to fix this bug (marked as critical) before they release 0.6. Forrest tests was successfull. This happened the weekend before the hackathon.... 3-In the hackathon I found the same bug on the table and I thought that will be OK to fix it. I asked some people at GT, because I had concerns about to introduce again a new CVS snapshot in our code. Here I want to state that is not important to whoms I asked. This is not the point here. The important point is that we agreed that introduce a CVS snapshot version since we found a valid case that will fix an important bug. 4-Please note that I am also following our contracts, even in the name of the file: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=108841815706318&w=2 At the end, it a big shame to me that my work is being used against our community. Seems that I need to be more careful. Best Regards, Antonio Gallardo

Towards a Better Assessment of Pain and Suffering Damages
- Publication Date
- Source
- Legacy
- Disciplines
abstractAbstract: Even though there is general consensus that pain and suffering damages for personal injuries should primarily be based on the severity and duration of the impairment to health, the amounts granted differ greatly between and within countries. There is no legal framework to assess the correctness of the damages because a yardstick is lacking. The authors argue that the concept of Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) from the field of health economics is able to provide the required framework. The primary legal objective of damages is to restore the victim as closely as possible to the position he would have been in without the accident. Besides compensation, satisfaction and prevention are also regularly mentioned as goals of pain and suffering damages. Whatever the goal, the authors' view is that pain and suffering damages must be based on the impact of the health impairment on the victim. The concept of QALYs allows pain and suffering damages to be based on the impact of the health impairment. AQALYexpresses the value of living one year in a certain health condition. The health economics literature allows an assessment of the impact of different health conditions on quality of life. By subsequently monetizing QALYs, this impact is expressed in monetary terms, which provides a systematic basis for pain and suffering damages. The authors compare pain and suffering damages in several European countries with the amounts that would result from a conservative estimate of the monetary value of a QALY for specific types of personal injuries. They show that the amounts that are currently awarded are too low when compared to this assessment of the impact of the injury on quality of life.text
