The sitting position during neurosurgical procedures does not influence serum biomarkers of pulmonary parenchymal injury
Patient safety and peri-operative care
The sitting position during neurosurgical operations predisposes to air penetration through veins and the movement of the air through the pulmonary circulation. Contact of an air bubble with the endothelium can lead to acute lung injury. The presence of specific pulmonary proteins in the plasma such as surfactant protein D (SP-D) and Clara cell protein (CC16) is a biomarker of damaging processes at the air-blood barrier. The aim of our study was to examine the hypothesis that the level of investigated pulmonary biomarkers in plasma is higher in patients operated on in the sitting position.
The study included patients undergoing planned neurosurgical operations, who were divided into two groups: the sitting group (40 patients, operated on in the sitting position) and the supine group (24 patients, operated in the supine position). After the operation blood samples were drawn, centrifuged, frozen and stored until analyses were conducted. The determination of the SP-D and CC16 levels was performed using an ELISA test. Air embolism (VAE) was defined as a sudden drop in etCO2 of more than 2 mmHg and the presence of air bubbles in the aspirated blood from the central cannula. In all patients, the number of hospitalization days in the postoperative period was calculated.
There were no differences in the average levels of SP-D between the groups (the mean in the sitting group was 95.56 ng/mL and the mean in the supine group was 101.21 ng/mL). The average levels of CC16 were similar in both groups as well (6.56ng/mL in the sitting group and 6.79ng/mL in the supine group). There was a statistically significant positive correlation between SP-D and CC16 values in both groups. VAE was diagnosed clinically in 12.5% of cases in the sitting group without a significant increase in SP-D and CC16 levels. On average, patients in both groups were discharged from the hospital within 9 days of surgery.
The sitting position and intraoperative VAE during neurosurgical procedures do not affect the concentration of plasma biomarkers of pulmonary parenchymal injury such as SP-D and CC16.
In 1821, Magendie published the first report of intra-operative pulmonary air embolism. The case occurred during a procedure to remove a tumor from the neck carried out in the sitting position. The patient did not survive the operation
Placing the patient in the sitting position during neurosurgical procedures when the operative site lies above the right atrium of the heart predisposes to air entrainment through damaged vein. The incidence of air embolism (diagnosis) in these cases ranges from 5% to 83%, depending on the method of air detection
When large volumes of air are rapidly entrained, the diagnosis of air embolism can be made easily. Obstruction of pulmonary venous blood flow by air bubbles increases right atrial and pulmonary artery pressures and the work of the right ventricle. This situation leads to a decrease in cardiac preload, a reduction in cardiac output and cardiovascular depression. However, the most common form of venous air embolism has a more insidious character. A series of air bubbles similar to a string of pearls enters the venous circulation is then carried through the right atrium, right ventricle and pulmonary artery to the lungs. In the pulmonary circulation, lipid particles, fibrin fibres and platelet aggregates are deposited on gas bubbles, and as a consequence inflammatory mediators and vasoconstricting factors are released. The mechanical contact of the gas bubble with endothelium results in increased vascular permeability. Histologically, thickening of the lung interstitium between the pulmonary alveolar basement membrane and capillary endothelium is evident. Inflammatory cells penetrate the interstitium and alveoli damaging the endothelium and provoking acute lung injury
The lung epithelium produces a complex array of secretions, including surfactant and several proteins important for protective immunity and lung function. Some of these proteins are present in small quantities in the blood as well as the bronchoalveolar fluid. As these proteins are mainly, if not exclusively, secreted within the airways their appearance in the vascular compartment is assumed to result from leakage from the lungs into the blood.
Thus, they can be used as biomarkers of lung injury and the presence of these proteins in the blood reflects the extent of alveolar dysfunction at the air-blood barrier
Specific endogenous lung proteins, such as surfactant proteins A and B (SP-A and SP-B) were first detected in the blood of children with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) by Chida and colleagues
SP-D plays a role in immune defence by acting as an opsonin to enhance phagocytosis and appears to be the protein whose concentration is best correlated with the extent of pulmonary parenchymal damage
CC-16 is a low molecular weight protein secreted mainly into the airways by non-ciliated Clara cells. Although its function is not known, the concentration of CC16 in the plasma is increased in certain diseases caused by damage to the air-blood barrier
We hypothesized that the air microbubbles that enter the venous system during neurosurgery in the sitting position increase the levels of SP-D and CC16 in the blood that the extend of venous air embolism correlates with the concentration of these biomarkers.
The study was approved by the Bioethics Committee. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. Patients scheduled for elective intracranial operations with an estimated duration of 4 h or more were consecutively enrolled in this prospective observational study. Patients were divided into two groups those who underwent craniectomy for pathology in the posterior fossa and a control group who underwent surgery in the supine position for supratentorial lesions. Patients with a history of pulmonary disease (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary fibrosis, previous lung resection or lung tumour), immunosuppressed patients, pregnant women and patients with serious comorbidities (American Society of Anesthesiologists status IV and V) were excluded from this study.
All patients were anesthetised and ventilated according to the following protocol. Anaesthesia was induced with of propofol (6–12 mg kg-1) and remifentanil (0.5-0.9 mcg kg-1). Cisatracurium was used to facilitate intubation and to maintain neuromuscular blockade. Anaesthesia was maintained with propofol (3-5mg kg-1) and remifentanil (0.07-0.13 mcg kg-1 min-1) infusions. After endotracheal intubation, patients were machanically ventilated using intermittent positive pressure (IPPV) with low tidal volumes (8 ml kg-1 ideal body weight). The fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) was set at 40% and the inhalation/exhalation ratio at 1:2. The ventilator frequency was adjusted to maintain moderate hyperventilation (etCO2 35–40 mmHg). A central cannula was placed in the subclavian vein of all patients, and position in the right atrium area was confirmed using the electrocardiogram.
In the event of a sudden drop in etCO2 of more than 2 mmHg, blood was aspirated from the subclavian catheter
Information regarding the number of days of hospitalization after the surgery was collected for all of the patients.
To determine the values of SP-D and CC16 blood samples were collected immediately after surgery from the venous catheter and immediately centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 10 minutes. The supernatant was frozen and stored at −50°C until the analysis , which was performed a sandwich-type enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique using surfactant Protein D Human ELISA (RD194059101, Biovendor, Czech Republic) and Clara Cell Protein Human ELISA (RD191022200, Biovendor, Czech Republic) kits. All assays were performed in duplicate by an investigator blinded to the patients' clinical data.
Statistical analysis
Quantitative variables are presented as number, mean, standard deviation (SD), median, minimum and maximum values.
The normality of the distribution of CC-16 and SP-D levels was estimated using the Shapiro-Wilk test. The chi-squared and Fisher's exact tests were used to compare quantitative variables. For normally distributed data, the Student's t-test was used to examine differences between groups; the Mann–Whitney U test was used for data that were not normally distributed. Spearman's correlation coefficient was employed to estimate the incidence and strength of the relationship between two quantitative variables. The research hypotheses were verified by Levene's test. In all analyses a significance level of p < 0.05 was adopted. All analyses were performed with SPSS Statistics 17.0 software.
Between August 2010 and June 2011, 64 patients were enrolled in the study and divided into two groups. Forty patients in the study group had surgery in the sitting position ("SITTING group") and twenty-four patients in the control group underwent surgery in the supine position ("SUPINE group"). The basic characteristics of all patients are shown in Table
The mean serum concentration of SP-D in the SITTING group ranged from 28 to 271 ng/mL with mean of 95.56 ng/mL ±54.01 (mean ± SD) and it was similar to those observed in the SUPINE group (range 20–277 ng/mL; mean 101.21 ng/mL ± 73.16). There were also no statistically significant difference in CC16 levels between the groups (p = 0.857, median concentration in SITTING group: 5.75 ng/mL; median concentration in SUPINE group: 5.64 ng/mL). The range of values in the SITTING group was 3–14 ng/mL (mean 6.56 ng/mL ± 2.69 and 2–18 ng/mL ( mean 6.79 ng/mL ± 3.65) in the SUPINE group (Figure

The horizontal line represents the median; the box encompasses 25th - 75th percentiles (the interquartile range, IQR), and the whiskers show upper and lower quartiles.
A statistically significant, positive relationship between the values of SP-D and CC16 in both the SITTING group (p = 0.029) and SUPINE group (p = 0.009) was found. If the levels of one marker increased, the levels of the other also increased. The value of the correlation coefficient for the above relationship was 0.345 in the SITTING group and 0.522 in the SUPINE group (Figure

VAE was diagnosed on the basis of a decrease in etCO2 and confirmed by aspiration of air from the central cannula on 5 occasions in the SITTING group (12.5%) but was not diagnosed on any occasion in the SUPINE group. During VAE, etCO2 fell on average by 10.6 mmHg ( range 6–20 mmHg). We did not see any evidence of cardiovascular depression in the form of changes in blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias or decreases in peripheral blood oxygen saturation in any patient diagnosed with VAE. The duration of surgery was, on average, 54 minutes longer when VAE was diagnosed (p <0.001).
In the subgroup of patients with VAE, there were no statistically significant differences in the concentrations of SP-D (p = 0.513) or CC16 (p = 0.561) compared with patients without VAE. The median plasma concentrations of SP-D and CC16 were 69.19 ng/mL and 5.70 ng/mL respectively (Figure

The horizontal line represents the median; the box encompasses the 25th - 75th percentiles (the interquartile range, IRQ), and the whiskers show upper and lower quartiles.
Patients from both groups were discharged from the hospital on average approximately 10 days after the surgery (p = 0.462; median 9 days for SITTING and SUPINE).
The main objective of this study was to determine whether there is a difference between plasma levels of SP-D and CC16 in patients undergoing neurosurgery in the sitting position compared with patients operated on in the supine position. We found that the mean concentrations of SP-D and CC16 were similar in both groups. It is well recognised that the intraoperative sitting position is a situation that can result in iatrogenic penetration of air into the venous system and pulmonary circulation. Even in situations when a large air embolism was not diagnosed intraoperatively, a gradual permeation of air microbubbles can obstruct blood flow in distal capillaries. Reduced blood flow causes tissue ischaemia, and the microbubbles initiate an immediate inflammatory response and complement activation. VAE incidents have been detected by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in 76% of patients undergoing surgery in the sitting position
The appearance of gaps between endothelial cells in leakage of fluid and consequently interstitial pulmonary oedema
A small amount of SP-D can be detected in the blood of healthy individuals; the exact quantity is genetically determined and varies between individuals. Plasma levels of these proteins can be elevated in patients with a wide variety of diseases and after exposure to toxins. Determann and colleagues observed SP-D levels of 140 ng/mL in patients without lung injury, which almost doubled toh acute lung injury / acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS)
The plasma CC16 concentration depends on factors such as lipid levels, body mass index, gender and smoking status, and changes can be observed in various lung diseases and after exposure to toxins. A decrease in the CC16 concentration was reported, for example, in smokers, while in patients with interstitial lung diseases an increase has been observed
Air embolism was diagnosed in 12.5% of cases. The incidence of intraoperative diagnosis of VAE is dependent on the method of detection. The more sensitive the method is the higher the incidence of VAE
There were also no apparent clinical consequences of lung damage in patients operated in the sitting position, as the duration of hospital stay after surgery was not prolonged.
One limitation of our study is that we only took a blood sample once after surgery. Sampling within four hours of placing the patients in the sitting position could have missed later significant lung damage and thus a later peak of blood biomarkers. More frequent sampling could have revealed the time course of changes in biomarkers rather than providing a snapshot. Another limitation may be our choice of biomarkers and the fact that differences may have been observed if other proteins or cell-specific markers of acute lung injury and acute inflammation had been measured.
In conclusion, we did not find any evidence of lung damage in patients undergoing neurosurgery in the sitting position. Our choice of biomarkers (SP-D and CC16) did not allow us to definitively identify whether microbubbles of air passing into the circulatory system lead to pulmonary endothelial damage. Therefore, our understanding of the pathophysiological processes of lung injury provoked by VAE is not complete and requires further study.

I don't know which piece of code causes this error, but I have found that doing the following can solve it: chmod a+w $FORREST_HOME/context This solved the problem on the linux system, but not on the solaris system, because the filesystem where I have installed forrest is mounted read-only. In order to permanently solve the problem, it would be necessary to find the piece of code that requires write permissions to $FORREST_HOME/context (and change it, since there should be no reason to write there). --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Inserting lock icon image in the text box fieldAsked by kauseway on January 01, 2015 at 05:10 PM
How can I get an image inside of a form field like I have attached? thanks!
for form: http://form.jotformpro.com/form/50005155818954
JotForm Support
The lock image is actually a font icon. I can help you put that icon on the text box field. Just give me few more minutes to complete the sample form so that you can clone it.
Thank you.
JotForm Support
I checked your form and I saw that the credit card number field was from the Stripe payment processor. Unfortunately, I was not able to find a way to use a font icon in the field.
However, it is still possible by going back to your original question on how to insert an image in the field. You need to know to add this custom CSS.
.form-textbox.cc_number {
background-image: url('https://shots.jotform.com/jan/images/lock-icon.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: right;
padding-left: 5px;
You can change the url if you need to use your own image. Here's a guide on how to inject a custom CSS: https://www.jotform.com/help/117-How-to-Inject-Custom-CSS-Codes
Hope this helps. Thank you.

Grocery Girl
The Daily Dot Store: the leading destination for stylish accessories, gadgets, everyday carry essentials & more!
PROMOTE: Place a Text Link on this Confession ONLY
Read This Confession To Me
Let's establish one thing first: I love my job as a cashier/bag girl in a grocery store. I like it even though I'm paid minimum wage with no hope of a raise (I have co-workers who've worked there for two years with no raise.), and I like it despite the fact that it's just some unskilled labor to support me until I graduate from college. I come to work with a smile on my face. If you've been there once, I remember you and try to tailor my interaction with you to your personal preferences. I'm kind, patient, and have a good sense of humor. So do most of you, which is the reason why I love my job.
However, dearest customers, I must lay out some rules in the vain hope that you'll actually listen:
1. Bags-
Paper or plastic- it's not a difficult decision. Choose quickly, and please for the love of all that is good, do not change your mind mid-bagging. Not only is it a huge pain for me, but inconveniences others waiting in line.
If I forget that you want paper IN plastic- it's a fairly unusual request- don't hiss at me! It's easily fixable, and I will mend the problem with a smile on my face.
I don't automatically "double bag" every bag as my boss discourages it. Don't get huffy if I don't double bag. Please ask me in a civil manner and I will gladly put on a second bag.
2. Wait Your Turn! -
I don't care if you have a newspaper. I know it's 50 cents. However, I get my ass chewed every time I don't scan it. So wait in line like everyone else.
If you have a return, don't come rushing up to me, thrusting your receipt/returned product in my face if I'm with another customer. Again, this is what lines were created for.
3. Produce -
May I ask kindly that you don't get in my face and howl, "RED DELICIOUS, 59 CENTS A POUND!"? Thanks for that interesting tidbit; do you happen to know the produce code? Didn't think so. Don't forget, I've been eating fruit for as long as I can recall, and I am familiar with most of basics here. I know my codes backwards and forwards. However, if you bring up something like okra, yucca root, or plantains, it may take me a literal second to look up the code. In the meantime, please don't proceed to howl the name and price of the fruit. It does me absolutely no good.
4. General Guidelines on Human Interaction-
Quit with the asshole act. No one else is impressed with you picking on an exhausted-looking 20-year-old girl. Wow, you can pick on someone whose day started at 5 AM and who's barely scraping by. Someday in the not-so-distant future I can only hope that I come up against you and your attorney in court and show you what my tough, future-lawyer self is really made of.
While I'm working towards that goal, don't harumph/growl/yell at me when something goes awry. I'm sorry that we only have your particular brand of cigs in the box and not in a "soft pack", but I don't make the ordering decisions. If this revelation is truly so disturbing to you that you feel the need to bitch and moan, I'll be happy to call my boss over.
And please don't ask me out at work. If I'm interested in you, I'll write my phone number on your receipt or otherwise let you know, by BLATANTLY MENTIONING MY ATTRACTION to you. Since I'm at my place of work, I'm really not looking to pick up men. Please refrain from embarassing yourself by forcing me to reject you in front of my co-workers and the five people in line behind you. I am a nice person and really hate having to do that. I know I smiled at you, shared a joke, and/or made small talk, but that's part of my job. I try to make everyone who comes through my line feel comfortable and happy. It doesn't mean that I want to meet you after work and fuck you. Being friendly isn't the same as displaying a sexual/romantic interest in you.
Lastly, this is a store that carries a lot of international foods. Multi-linguality was not part of my job description when I was hired- nor is it now. I'm semi-fluent in Spanish and know a few words in other languages as well. I may even bid you goodbye or good day in your native tongue, if I know it. However, I cannot help you otherwise. I'd love to be able to, and I hold no grudges about your lack of English skills. Learning a new language is difficult and frustrating at times. However, don't blow up at me because I can't understand you. I'm sorry.
Other than that, you're all wonderful. Please observe the aforementioned guidelines and everything will be just peachy.

Amen. I have worked as a cashier at quite a few jobs, mostly overnight at twenty four hour death cages. I totally understand. When I would get off work at five o'clock in the morning, I was dragging ass, trying to get enough energy to just catch the next bus home, so I could sleep for six hours and get back on another bus. The freaks who come out at night, just see a girl, trying to earn a living to pay for rent -- nothing more, and think they can say or do what they want. Thank you for sharing.
Well said! I'm glad you're saying it....and very nicely too.
While I have never been a cashier, I, as a customer have been annoyed by some customers who act like you have mentioned...especially wait your turn! I work full time and commute about an hour both ways, so when I'm at the grocery store, I am aware of the employees. To me it's common sense - customers should treat you the way they would like to be treated. We're just trying to make a living and people need to relax. :)
And thank you for pointing out some other things that as a customer, I never would have thought of.
Awesome post. :) I enjoyed it.

EDITOR: Well, if all goes as predicted, I am a little over one-third through my life. My birthday is a week before Valentine's Day and I suppose that birthdays often cause you to reflect. This year I started to think about what I have learned a bout love. I am not a big celebrator of Valentine's Day. It really is a greeting card holiday to me. It was never important for me, when in a relationship, to get a big diamond or go out to eat that day, but I always did the obligatory token to mom and grandma and sometimes the cynical sarcastic card to a single friend. Yet, it is hard to criticize a day that celebrates love, a driving force for all human beings. So for what it is worth, here's what I have learned about love in my 33 years. I know that the love or lack thereof from a parent can drive people to great success or devastating failure.
I've learned that the love of family cannot be replaced.
I've come to believe that the love of friends is full of lessons and has so much to do with the time in your life. It is truly a gift to have a lasting friendship with someone who doesn't have to love you just because you are related.
I realize that after your "first love," the world is never the same place again. I've experienced that the love of lovers can bring you places you would have not gone alone.
I fathom that the love of "things" has gone too far.
I think the "love" of co-workers can inspire achievement.
I appreciate that the love of a spouse can be very complicated.
I have not experienced the love for my own child, but can imagine its beauty.
I know that death brings a perspective on love that life cannot.
Love encompasses and teaches all other emotions. It brings joy and pain, hope and desperation, community and loneliness, ecstasy and agony, wealth and poverty. Essentially, it gives value to all.
So this Valentine's Day, take time to appreciate the love of those around you. Try to give some love to those who may not have any.
Hug your child, kiss your spouse, thank a friend for being there or just smile a t a stranger.
After all, "Love conquers all."

In auto dealership lots, we typically see area lights such as shoe boxes as well as flood lights. Most tend to be Metal Halide light sources in the 400W to 1000W range.
Energy reduction with a LED car dealership parking lot lighting system can be 75% or greater, and with added controls such as motion sensors and dimming, energy savings can be even greater. However, with high CRI light, the cars at night can not only be lit up brightly but their colors can be represented properly. Metal Halide suffers from lumen degradation. After a few months of operation, metal halide's drop a significant amount from their initial lumens. At half life, typically 7500 hours, its already list 1/2 of its initial lumens.
LED, on the other hand, maintains its lumens much better. L70's (lumen degradation of 70% of initial lumens) can be as much as 100,000 hours. This means your LED Lights will be maintenance free for a very long period of time.
LED High Bays can replace Metal Halide High Bays up to 1500W and reduce your energy consumption by as much as 75%. These lights are perfect for gyms, warehouses, factories, auditoriums or any large area where traditional style high bays are installed. UL Listed and DLC Qualified with 5 year warranties.
3 Main Reasons to Convert your Lighting over to LED
1. Higher Quality of Light: Our LED hospital lights are better
sources of light for two reasons. First, the quality of light, measured
as Color Rendering Index (CRI) is typically higher most if not all the
times than the traditional light sources they replace. Secondly, LED
hospital systems do not flicker like fluorescent light sources. While
flickering may not seem like an issue, working under lights that flicker
can cause eye strain and even headaches. It's been our experience that
every time we retrofitted a hospital with LED lights, not only did the
light levels improve, the staff talked about how much nicer it was to
work under LED lights.2. Save Energy - therefore - Save Money:
A typical fluorescent tube retrofit to LED tubes saves you at least 50%
or more in less energy used. A typical HID bulb converted over to LED
can save you as much as 75% or more. This is real money that you don't
have to spend while maintain the same if not better light levels you
currently have. The majority of our healthcare LED lights are rebate
eligible, either registered under DesignLights Consortium (DLC) or
Energy Star. All of our lights are UL or ETL listed for safety. All our
DLC lights come with either a 5 or 10 year warranty. Many utility
companies offer rebates for DLC Qualified or Energy Star certified
products, saving even more money. High use areas often see paybacks in
less than a year. Contact us for a free quote and we can even do a
customer payback analysis for you on your car dealership lighting products.3. Higher Quality of Light increases safety. LED is an extremely high quality light source. When you consider car dealership LED lighting, you need to think about both quantity (lumens) and quality (Color Rendering Index - or - CRI). When your light source is of better quality, you need less quantity. Our eyes perceive more quantity when the light quality is better. And items that are red appear red, unlike objects under High Pressure Sodium, where everything appears yellow or brown. And all of this makes for a safer parking lot, and upgrading to LED auto dealership lighting will make these benefits come to your lot.

This friendly with Platinum Stars was a little too authentic at times. Wayne Rooney may have appeared merely as a substitute, but he was still booked for indicating that the referee should consider an appointment with an optician.
At least the Manchester United striker set up Joe Cole for England's second goal with a line-up almost completely changed after the interval and made further amends by volleying home a James Milner cross near the end.
It is difficult to impress in a contest with a club team, yet it was still hard not to think about the limitations of the squad even if the result was respectable. England not only got a little practice ahead of the group match with the USA but also had a reminder of what it means for the country to have won only a single major trophy, 44 years ago. Predictions of mass hysteria over this match were misconceived.

The capacity was restricted, but there would still have been a sense of anticipation if, for instance, Brazil had been in town. Nothing that happened here mattered deeply for England over all, but the disappointment will be authentic for some and Shaun Wright-Phillips, for instance, had no impact on the right.
With Gareth Barry still convalescing, Fabio Capello would have seen value in letting Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard rehearse as a central midfield partnership before that USA encounter. The Liverpool player had a more advanced role as Capello tried to clarify what is expected of a partnership that has foundered in the past.
Gerrard did have impact when setting up Jermain Defoe to score in the third minute, yet that gave a false impression. Platinum Stars soon had a penalty as Glen Johnson seemed distracted by Joe Hart's failure to come off his line and bundled over Muzi Mashaba. Bradley Grobler then sent the penalty lavishly over the bar.
Hart, making his first start for England, even if this was not an international, might have wished for more to do before Robert Green took over, but England's command was no more than territorial. Although Ashley Cole impressed, Peter Crouch made little of a cut-back by the left-back in the 14th minute.
A further 50 minutes passed before England next scored. It was achieved on the break as Rooney fed Joe Cole, the one England player to feature for the whole game, and he converted smoothly. It was a rare moment of slickness.
Platinum Stars (4-3-2-1) Kapani; Miller, Mabizela, Mofokeng, Mkalipa; Coetzee, Lobo, Senamela; Molongoane, Mashaba; Grobler. Substitutes Visser, Meiring, Botes, Msomi, Masenya, Makgale, Mokgothu.
England (4-4-2) first half Hart; Johnson, King, Terry, A Cole; Wright-Phillips, Gerrard, Lampard, J Cole; Crouch, Defoe. Second half Green; Carragher, Dawson, Upson, Warnock; Lennon, Carrick, Milner, J Cole; Rooney, Heskey. Subs not used James.

Ugh. I'm glad my business card doesn't suck.
walking a narrow line
I've noticed differences in designers based on gender. I think inexperienced designers in general will choose less appropriate type/ways of designing , based on style or 'preference.' It just so happen when a male* does it, it just looks mediocre/inappropriate and when a woman* does it, it looks froofy/inappropriate.
Heh, this reminds me of American Psycho, where all the rich VPs are having a dick-waving contest with their business cards, going on about the cardstock and foil and so on. In the film, the card that finally owns everyone and sends our madman into a jealous rage is a plain white card set in Copperplate.
I thought it was the fact that it was a specific paper and that he had it engraved... or was it letterpressed... I forget. (Obviously more focused on the wrong point.)

Well, if she thinks it's important to have large type so the "senior, very powerful business man can read it without putting on his glasses", she is probably a little harsh on the woman who put a photo of herself on her card, "wearing a purple velvet dress, thick blue eyeliner, bouffant hair and red lipstick."

Block me if you want, but I'm just making this blog to log down ALL the problems with the wiki's staff. Let's begin:
Both are inactive and have been as long as the gap between PvZ1 and PvZ2. Still, being the founders, I'd rather not revoke their rights.
- Brainulator9 (aka me): Call me biased, but I see no problems with myself.
- Gregory Exploit: Inactive.
- Hoanganhminh: Once you learn to spell his name and disregard his questionable behavior in the past... he still is meh. He undid my work on the Giga-Football Zombie article which was FOR THE BETTER, and was the reason why I couldn't get rid of Category:Achievements with Other Names.
- Jackninja5DipperGravityFalls: Ignoring that FREAKISHLY LONG NAME, he's inactive.
- MignightHawk: Left the wiki; abused power; misspelled name.
- Milesprower2: "...is a very good b-crat." Yeah, right. He's very closed-minded, so that means he's disrespectful of others' opinions, it is impossible to get him to watch a SpongeBob episode even EVERY OTHER HUMAN BEING ON THE PLANET loves, and has a bad habit of capitalizing common nouns. Perhaps that's immature reasoning, but stil...
- PvZBeast234: Inactive, but thankfully not as long as some of the user bureaucrats here, who have been inactive for YEARS. PB234 might as well be retired, though.
- RandomguY: Inactive.
- Shadythecat: Inactive. Why aren't these guys demoted yet?
- Someone456: Some of his mindsets are... detrimental, to say the least. I want to keep redirect links. I want to use Wikipedia's style of editing as seen in its Manual of Style. His grammar is faulty, but to be fair, he IS Chinese.
- Starfruity: I see no problems with him.
- Swampert rox: Admittedly, I saw him on chat within the past twelve months, I believe, but still, I consider him to be inactive, probably the least much OF the four that need to be demoted.
Seven of them are inactive, but only four are worth demoting: RandomguY, Shadythecat, Gregory Exploit, and Swampert rox. Hawk and Beast might be worth demoting as time goes on, but as for Jack, we'll see...
Honestly, the administrators are... fine, but too little. I like A plant, and NapalmRosalina's faults are now in the past... but yeah, not much to say here. IMO, DeathZombi deserves it. At least ALL administrators are active.
Chat moderators
Not much to say, except there's just not enough of them. We only have seven of them, and three are inactive. Demote them much?
Again, not much to say, but we have the opposite problem: there's too much. Why not promote some of the rollbacks to chat moderator if applicable? Four of them are inactive, so demote them, but still...
The conclusion
I feel to lazy to write this, so I'll say this:
We have two founders, twelve bureaucrats, six administrators, seven chat moderators, and twelve rollbacks. Oh, and a bot. Oh, and another user I created for use as a bot but has not been given rights yet and at this state will probably never get them. We need more balance and better staff.
Oh, and if you're reading this years later, when this blog is COMPLETELY out-of-date, don't pester me to update it. It will never happen. Not that those words apply now, but in the future...

Brandon Routh in GQ Magazine
"That is raw!" says Brandon Routh, the star of Superman Returns, staring in dismay at the undercooked hamburger he has been served at a Sunset Boulevard bistro. And the irresistible metaphor looms: The 6'3", square-jawed Routh, 26, is in many ways your classic Hollywood tenderfoot, potential grist for the town's cruel mill. Raised in Norwalk, Iowa (Mom is a second-grade teacher, Dad, a carpenter), he modeled briefly and bartended before getting bit parts on One Life to Live, Gilmore Girls, and Will & Grace.
Yet it was this dropped-from-the-sky quality that appealed to Superman's director, Bryan Singer—the fourth attached to Warner Bros." fraught, decade-long venture, during which Nicolas Cage, Brendan Fraser, Josh Hartnett, and Ashton Kutcher were up for the tide role. "I wanted an unknown because Superman is larger than any actor," Singer says. "And a famous actor comes with baggage." Indeed: He admits that Routh's sometimes uncanny resemblance to the late Christopher Reeve factored significantly into his decision.
"Stepping into those shoes, there's tons of pressure," says Kate Bosvvorth, the new Lois Lane. "This was Brandon's first taste of the movie industry, and he was so sweet, Very innocent."
But Routh—a self-professed homebody who has an endearing Clark Kentish stammer, a longtime girlfriend, actress Courtney Ford; and understandable anxiety about which project to pick next—seems primed to embody the Man of Steel for a new generation, thanks to the ministrations of two personal trainers, a nutritionist ("Eggs are my Kryptonite!"), a movement specialist, and an acting coach he hired himself. "It paid dividends, just in my being grounded," he says. And he promises that his Superman goes beyond homage to Reeve, though "I had his voice in my head," Routh says. "There were times when I would go, Did that sound too much like Chris? But nobody ever yelled 'Cut!' because of it.
It's a bird, it's a plane… No, it's Brandon Routh, the hottest new caped crusader! Elle Magazine featured actor Brandon Routh in June 2006 issue. As did the UK edition of GQ Magazine June 2006. Above is the Elle article, after the jump is the GQ UK article. If you haven't watched the Superman Returns trailer yet, what are you waiting for?!??! Check out all of the pictures in the gallery!
Brandon Routh
Don't be surprised if Brandon Routh's acting career takes off faster than a speeding bullet. After languishing in bit parts in TV soaps, 26-year-old Routh has been plucked from obscurity to play the legendary Man of Steel in Superman Returns. Some might call it fate, as he does bear an uncanny resemblance to Christopher Reeve, the only previous actor to bring the role to the silver screen. It seems Routh's towering physique and lantern-jaw good looks made him the obvious choice for director Bryant Singer.
Singer himself is no slouch in the comc-book genre having successfully directed the first two X-Men films. His genius lies in lifting iconic superheroes off the page and bringing them to life for millions of obsessive comic-book fans. So appealing was the notion of doing just that with Superman Returns that Singer passed up the chance to direct the final installment of the X-men trilogy.
A shroud of secrecy has been thrown around the film and Brandon himself is tight-lipped when it comes to revealing details. He will say that his Superman has to deal with some "fairly modern psychological issues".
"Superman returns to Metropolis after a five-year absence and finds things have changed," Brandon says. "But I don't want to give away too much. You'll have to see for yourself."
If you can't bear the though of watching an entire film with the Man of Steel lying suping on a psychiatrist's couch bleating on about his emotional deficiencies, don't worry. "There's plenty of action," divulges Routh, "and I do most of my own stunts." So grueling were the demands of the role that he spent almost a year bulking up his already impressive frame. Routh needed to be super-fit in order to withstand hours of filming suspended in wire harnesses, and his training regime reincluded movement classes to help the actor similate flying. Hours were expended posing on blocks with cameras on cranes swooping around him — exhausting work, but the end product will undoubtedly propel the superhero to new heights.
Let's hope Brandon Routh is ready for megastardom. Growing up in Iowa, he sported Superman pajamas and worked himself into a frenzy when he saw the original 1978 film on television. "I became so excited that I gave myself a migraine. I don't really rememeber watching it. I was throwing up everywhere." Superman Returns is out on July 14.

I know they have but i was wondering if any of you knew how they are doing this?

My father died recently. Should we try to settle his credit card debt for a lower amount prior to selling his house?
My father died recently. He had several credit cards with significant balances, but none were also in the name of my mother. She cannot afford the payments. We wanted to apply for a reverse mortgage to help pay for her long-term care, but now worry that the proceeds will be taken by the credit card companies. If we sell the house outright, will the proceeds be attached by the credit card companies? My mother lives in TX, which I understand is a community property state. I worry that her long term care funds will be taken by credit card companies for which she knew nothing about. Should we try to settle the credit cards for a lower amount prior to selling the house?
Expert Answers
You are correct that Texas is a community property state. This means, basically, that property acquired during the course of a marriage is owned equally by both spouses. Assuming the house was community property, half the house was owned by your father.
Your deceased father had substantial credit card debts. I have no knowledge of credit card debt law in Texas, nor am I familiar with Texas credit card collection law or practice. However, I can say that it's likely that credit card companies could go against your father's one-half interest in the house, which could include going against one-half the money obtained from a reverse mortgage, or from a sale of the house.
I see three options for you. First, discuss this situation with a Texas lawyer who specializes in debts matters, including debt collection. The lawyer might well know how your mother can best handle this situation, including how best to negotiate with credit card companies to reduce the debt. Personally, this is what I'd do if I were in your or your mother's situation.
Secondly, you could negotiate directly with the credit card companies. While this would save you a lawyer's fee, it also might result in a far worse settlement for your mother than you would have achieved with a lawyer's help.
Third, ignore the credit card debt and hope for the best. This seems far too risky to me.
Good luck

Dated this guy for 2 months but he had to move away to another country. We agreed on staying friends and being in touch. He hasn't contacted me for 2 weeks now. But he likes/comments my every facebook post. He is pretty busy, though... but still.
If he doesn't text me it means he doesn't miss me or think about me, right?
What Guys Said 1
No. I think of my everything quite often, but that doesn't mean i text her with every thought of her.00|00|0
What Girls Said 1
It shows you aren't really on his mind, considering he has time to go on Facebook. He's not making an effort to message you to let you know he's thinking about you. So I wouldn't waste my time on a guy who didn't make time for me00|00|0

90 killed in bomb and gun attacks in northeastern Nigeria
Suspected Boko Haram militants target villages in Nigeria's northeast
At least 90 people died in Nigeria's northeastern Borno state after bombings and attacks carried out by suspected Islamist militants.
Two explosions on Saturday evening at a crowded marketplace in the Ajilari area of Maiduguri left 51 people dead, according to a body count by local people and anti-insurgent vigilante group members, Modu Kolo, a 33-year-old resident, said.
In a separate attack, gunmen invaded Mainok village, killing at least 39 people, said Bunu Kaka, a 42-year-old farmer who fled. The village was also set ablaze.
"As I was returning late at night, I heard gunshots as the attackers were moving from house to house killing everyone they saw," Kaka said by phone from Maiduguri, where he is taking refuge. "I then hid myself in the bush."
Nigeria's security forces are struggling to contain the Boko Haram Islamist group, which has carried out a violent campaign since 2009 to impose shariah law in Africa's most populous nation, which also the continent's biggest oil producer. Boko Haram means "Western education is a sin" in the Hausa language.
Attacks have continued after President Goodluck Jonathan imposed emergency rule in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states last May.
In the Maiduguri blasts, improvised explosive devices were believed to have been planted by Boko Haram, Borno state military spokesman Colonel Muhammad Dole said. He declined to give casualty figures.
"We are trying to fish out the perpetrators," Dole said.
The military spokesman said today by text message that he had no details on the incident in Mainok. Local media reported that the village was set ablaze.
The violence comes after international condemnation of a school attack last week in the northeast that killed at least 29 students. More than 600 people have died in the violence since the start of the year, Amnesty International said.
The National Emergency Management Agency said 56 people were taken to the hospital after the latest bombings, though the number killed in the two blasts couldn't be confirmed yet, said its northeast co-ordinator Mohammed Kanar.
"It was at a very crowded area with shops and small businesses," Kanar said from Maiduguri. "It's a very horrible situation."
The US State Department designated Boko Haram a terrorist organisation in November. Last week it said the group and Nigeria's security services were among the worst human rights abusers in the country in 2013.
Boko Haram has killed thousands of people since it started the insurgency with attacks across the north and the capital, Abuja. Nigeria's 170 million people are almost evenly split between Christians, predominant in the south, and Muslims.

After some unseasonably warm and rather muggy October weather, today really feels like autumn to me... and I love it! The change in the weather (nice), together with what seems like the onset of a cold (not so nice), combine to make today's slow cooker recipe for Meatless Monday a rather inspired choice... because isn't there something just so very comforting and fall-like about an afternoon in a cosy house, surrounded by the tantalizing aroma of a spicy dinner simmering in the crock pot?
I think so.
We received our slow cooker for a wedding gift some 14 years ago. It's a wonderful kitchen tool to have available - although we really haven't used it as much as we could/should have. It's funny - every time we do use it, we enthuse about how great it is, and how convenient, and how we should remember to bring it out more often - then it gets washed and put away in the depths of the cupboard and forgotten about for several months.
Poor crock pot!
(To be fair, Peter actually HAS been making use of it every couple of weeks in recent months, as he found a great method for slow-cooking a roast. But since this is a Meatless Monday post, let's just pretend I didn't say that, mm-kay?!)
So, on to today's Meatless Monday adventure!
Several readers have suggested lentils as a great and filling meat replacement, so I did a bit of searching and ended up selecting a delicious-sounding recipe from the Slender Kitchen site - Red Lentil, Curry, and Carrot Stew.
This recipe was easy, easy, easy. Sure, there's a bit of prep work involved - rinsing the lentils, dicing the carrots, grating the ginger, and chopping the onions... but honestly, what could be simpler than tossing a bunch of ingredients into the slow cooker, giving them a stir, and then heading to the couch for a nap?! Seriously, this is my kind of cooking.
I didn't stray too far from the recipe. I opted for vegetable broth over water, added 1.5 tsps of salt (which wasn't enough for Peter, as he immediately grabbed the salt shaker!), skipped the optional jalapeños, and completely eliminated the coriander. While I wish I had a more sophisticated palate and was able to appreciate the dreaded coriander/cilantro - particularly since it shows up darn near everywhere - I'm afraid I am only able to handle a little (VERY little) in a dish before it becomes overpowering and affects my enjoyment of the meal. I would certainly never choose to add the vile stuff to anything I was making!
I was a little disappointed in the consistency of the final product. Since I was expecting a stew, I made some brown basmati rice to accompany the meal. As it turned out, though, the recipe title was a little deceptive - at least based on my definition of a stew. Maybe I'm off-base, but I think that a stew should be thick enough that it could conceivably be served on a plate rather than in a bowl. This, however, was most definitely a soup. (I did notice that the writer referred to it as a soup elsewhere in the recipe, so perhaps that should have raised a red flag!)
We each had a gigantic bowl of it - half a cup of rice and two cups of soup - and still, there is plenty left for future meals. It'll be nice to have leftovers - that doesn't usually happen around here!
All in all, it was pretty good, and I would most likely make this dish again - with my own modifications. Next time I would add less ginger (maybe even half of what the recipe calls for), as although I do love ginger I felt that this was just a tad too gingery for my taste. I would also experiment with using a little less liquid so as to make it a bit more stew-like.
Peter said after dinner that he hoped I would continue with this whole Meatless Monday thing. I'm not sure if he said that because he's enjoying my cooking, or because he's enjoying the fact that someone else is doing the cooking, or maybe a little bit of both - regardless, I'm going to take it as a sign of success and carry on!
Are you a fan of the slow cooker?
What is your favourite slow cooker or lentil recipe?
Please share!

CTRL+click to play video in a new tab!
This ad is full of subtleties - one can easily miss a lot of details on the first viewing. It also seems to make a statement about the kids being caught up with texting and unable to see what is happening above their heads. The hoodies provide effective 'blinders' to illustrate that they cannot see what is happening beyond a narrow field of vision. YouTuber "DevonThing" calls the video "Illuminati-inspired." I would tend to agree. YouTuber "3rdEyeDear" points out that at (0:06) we see not only chemtrails in the sky but spraying happening on the ground - originating from what appear to be water sprinklers directly in front of each oblivious, texting child. 3rdEyeDear also points out that there are bubbles originating from the phones, and that the company name is a reference to the molecule we breathe. I have no idea what the bull is for. Maybe they just wanted to throw in some random bull to confuse us (or maybe it has a more significant meaning). All in all, this video takes the cake as the most ridiculous chemtrail normalization ad I've ever seen.
If I were tripping on acid, and I saw a vision of this creepy chemtrail ad, I would probably write something like the following:

Kylie Jenner Says She's "Genuinely Happy" & Having "More Fun" After Tyga Breakup: "I Feel Way More Free"
Friends, fans and family finally have some answers.
George Michael died of natural causes, the coroner reveals. "Enquires into the death of George Michael have been concluded and the final post mortem report received. As there is a confirmed natural cause of death, being Dilated Cardiomyopathy with Myocarditis and Fatty Liver, the investigation is being discontinued and there is no need for an inquest or any further enquiries, the statement from Senior Coroner for Oxfordshire reads. "No further updates will be provided and the family requests the media and public respect their privacy."
The Wham! crooner passed away on Christmas at age 53, his rep confirmed. He died "peacefully at home."
Michael Putland/Getty Images
The statement continued, "It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peaceful at home over the Christmas period. The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage."
After an initially inconclusive autopsy, the Thames Valley Police said the investigation into his cause of death would continue. "The cause of death is inconclusive and further tests will now be carried out," the statement read. "The results of these tests are unlikely to be known for several weeks. Thames Valley Police will prepare a file for the Oxfordshire Coroner. Mr. Michael's death is still being treated as unexplained but not suspicious."
The "Freedom" crooner was found dead by his boyfriend Fadi Fawaz.
"ITs a xmas i will never forget finding your partner dead peacefully in bed first thing in the morning.." Fawaz tweeted. "I will never stop missing you xx."
Michael received several tributes from fellow music artists, including Coldplay's Chris Martin and longtime friend Elton John.

I visited this facility
Tyler Springs was OK, but the people were not friendly, and the set-up was not very nice. They have a swimming pool, but the rooms were too small for me.
Gerry K. July 25, 2013
I visited this facility
I didn't like Tyler Springs Apartments when I visited this place. Their apartments were very small and most of the vacancies were to the second floor. However, they did not have an elevator, so that in itself was not a very good set-up for seniors. It was also a beautiful place with beautiful grounds. However, it was pretty spread out, so it would involve way too much walking to get anywhere. Aside from that, they also do not allow pets in this community.

New Delhi: The Lok Sabha Thursday agreed to extend the term of the joint parliamentary committee (JPC) probing the 2G spectrum issue till the end of the winter session in December this year.
This is the second extension being granted to the committee.
A motion for the purpose, moved by the panel's chairman P.C. Chacko, a Congress MP, was passed by the house by a voice vote.
This extension gives the committee time to submit its report on its probe in the spectrum allocation affairs by the end of the Lok Sabha sitting during the winter session.
The committee's term was to end on the last day of the budget session on May 22.
The first extension to the panel was given in September last.
The panel consists of 20 Lok Sabha MPs and 10 Rajya Sabha MPs. It was formed on March 4 2011 to probe the telecom policy of the governments since 1998 to 2009.
Parliament had witnessed repeated disruptions during the budget session last year over opposition demands for the joint parliamentary committee to look into the 2G spectrum issue, despite the then public accounts committee headed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) member Murli Manohar Joshi.
The government, after several days of disruptions in the two houses of parliament, later agreed to constitute the committee.
