I am always careful about what I post on The Conservative Monster due to the massive amount of misinformation on the Internet. I make it known that when I wrote an editorial; it is based on my many years of research on the Communist conspiracy against the American Capitalist system, Israel and freedom.
At first, I dismissed this story when I saw the headline said "Obama only wants military leaders who 'will fire on U.S. citizens". I figured it was by hysterical Libertarians seeking to spread fear and paranoia, because they want to incite the American people into Revolution. This Revolution would actually give Obama more power (Martial Law) and they know it, because the Military leaders would have removed Obama already if that were the plan.
I was informed by a former Green Beret back in 2005 (before Obama even ran for President) that a US Military Officer MUST be on board for the NWO (World Communism) to be promoted to a Colonel or above. This former Green Beret got this information from his superior Officer that trained him to be a Green Beret.
Back to the ARTICLE:
Last night, Erik Rush (author that appears on Fox News) sent this article to my Twitter account. I was shocked, because I assumed that it was BS and I decided to take a look at it if Erik was sending it to me.
I was shocked to see that Dr Jim Garrow was the man that gave this information to Examiner.com about Obama seeking Officers that will fire on American citizens.
Dr. Garrow has been a friend and fan of The Conservative Monster for several years, but most importantly is that I trust him. I emailed Jim and this was his response:
Sorry for the shock. I got a call from a fellow that I spent some time with back in 1995. He is a really famous military hero in the US. He called me because he was upset that a fellow that he had encouraged to enter the military and was a close friend had resigned his commission because of the "litmus test".
My friend asked me to pass the word out of what was going on. I did as he asked and also kept his name out of it. I can follow instructions.
What could get this all started?
- My theory once again is a 'staged economic collapse' to cause civil unrest in the USA when they have money that has NO VALUE.
- This is why the Democrats don't want to stop the debt from exploding.
- This is why the Elite want the middle class disarmed.
- This is why they seem to be waiting for Israel to attack Iran so the JEWS can be blamed. The goal is to get Americans to turn against funding and supporting Israel.
Let me make this clear. Obama is a Revolutionary and HE WANTS UNREST. This is why he seeks to divide and cause chaos. Change can only start after a massive collapse takes place and that is the goal.
The Communists have a saying: "You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet" and that is what civil unrest from a 'staged' economic collapse will do.

Here's a strange DG injury. It happened last summer. I was attempting to throw a roller, which I'm not very good at. I was even less good at the time having really just started messing around with roller shots right before the injury occurred. Anyway, I went to force the disc over pretty hard and instead of bending back at the waist I think I tried to do it all with my shoulder. Next thing you know, it felt like I pulled a tricep on my right (throwing) arm. I spent the next month trying to throw lefty which never really ended up working out that well.
The lesson to take away from this for me is throw rollers with clean form and never try to torque the disc over with just arm and shoulder.

Forest Fire Sunset — Palo Alto, CA, September 6, 2007September 6th, 2007
I was out on the balcony with Gillian this evening, watching the sun descend into the smoke. We've had a thick haze lingering in the Bay Area the last couple of days because of forest fires north of Sacramento and south of San Jose.
I was thinking that I should have driven out to the coast or up to the the ridge to take some photos of the sunset. But the next best thing, I figured maybe I could get a shot from the balcony, so I grabbed my camera and tripod, switched to a 300mm lens, and had time to take a few frames.

Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale make this award winner one not to miss...

The difference between a good sports film and a great sports film is fairly simple: does the film evoke realistic emotions all of us have felt or could feel and, if so, in what way can I relate to the characters? After all, not all of us have won a Super Bowl, World Series, or title fight; but most of us have felt the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. And, at different levels, each of us have felt most of the emotions most of the sports films out there exemplify. Be it that rush of adrenaline before a big play, that scare following a pulled muscle, or those marvelous endorphins that keep you running, rushing and fighting, if a film can't put you in the character's shoes, it's hard to relate.
That said, The Fighter hits home in more ways than one. Based on a true story that's gritty and raw, The Fighter features plenty of drama, romance and action. All that combined with brilliant performances (two of which won Academy Awards) and you've got yourself one heck of a movie. So why didn't I enjoy this sports film? Probably because more than anything, The Fighter isn't about sports or even boxing; it's about drugs and what they can do to you, no matter who you are and what you've done.
This marvelous yet depressing film follows the lives of two boxers and half brothers Micky Ward (Wahlberg) and Dicky Eklund (Bale in his Academy Award winning performance). The pair grew up, live and train in Lowell, Massachusetts, a small community which sees the elder, Dicky, the local hero following his fight against Sugar Ray Leonard.
However, the years following the fight haven't been kind to Dicky; he's an addict and lives through his brother, Micky, who continues to fight to support family and his abusive manager/mother Alice (Melissa Leo in her Academy Award winning performance). Without a plan and fighting men bigger and better, Micky soon meets Charlene Fleming (Amy Adams in her Academy Award nominated performance), a local waitress who helps him realize his potential. Soon, we watch the rise of Micky and the decent of Dicky, wondering how the pair can share parentage and knowing the pair will have to again meet.
Again, more a character drama than a sports piece, The Fighter delivers an intriguing story of success, failure, victory, defeat and the redemptive qualities each and every one of us has...if only we're brave enough to put them to work. Thanks to a solid script by Scott Silver and Paul Tamasy, quality direction by David O. Russell, and outstanding performances by the entire cast, The Fighter is a film not to be missed.
The blu-ray features a gorgeous video transfer in 1080p with plenty of detail and tight, crisp lines. The colors - whether they're the bright lights of Las Vegas or the dark earth-tones of Lowell - shine. Likewise, the DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack delivers both clear dialogue and soundtrack. Both background sounds , the yelling crowd, the barroom brawl, as well as the straight-forward dialogue clearly projects from all relevant speakers.
For those looking for even more in-depth info, The Fighter features a number of special features worth a look, including an audio commentary with director David O. Russell reveals the development of the film, how the story was adapted from the real story, the casts performances, and more.
For those who would rather watch the more typical Behind the Scenes type documentary, theres The Warriors Code: Filming The Fighter, which clocks in at 30 minutes and features cast and crew interviews, info on Wahlbergs training, and both real-life brothers Micky Ward and Dicky Eklund. A final 8 minute Keeping the Faith short features both the real-life Ward and Eklund family discussing their familys boxing pastime.
Other special features include deleted scenes with optional director commentary and the films theatrical trailer. While maybe not as many special features as some films, theres plenty of high quality extras to enjoy.
Again, The Fighter isnt about sports or even boxing, its about the struggle to overcome obstacles. Its this fight that each of us have experience, that each of us can relate to and understand. Likewise, its this fighter in each of us that will either rise to the challenge or trip, fall and with the right attitude stand back up, get back in the ring, and continue the fight.
The Fighter is rated R for language throughout, drug content, some violence and sexuality and is available now wherever fine home video is sold.

T.O. could join rookies, others in Vegas for hoopsBy Len Pasquarelli
Will Terrell Owens play some summertime hoops as the star ponders a potential training camp holdout?
It's a longer shot than a 3-point buzzer-beater from half court. But maybe.
In the latest twist to Owens' offseason saga, the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver has been invited to play for the Sacramento Kings' summer league team. The invitation to join Sacramento draft choices, free agents, younger veterans and music mogul Master P on the roster was confirmed Friday by agent Drew Rosenhaus and a Kings spokesman.
There is one considerable caveat: Owens' latest roundball flirtation is actually in the Eagles' court.
Sacramento officials will only allow Owens to participate if the Eagles grant permission. Given the current state of affairs between the Eagles and Owens, who has skipped all the club's offseason workouts as he seeks to upgrade the seven-year, $49 million contract he signed last summer, gaining such clearance could be difficult.
"Obviously, he would love to do it, since he enjoys the game [of basketball] so much and it would be a unique conditioning tool," Rosenhaus said. "But we'll see what happens. We don't know yet. The Kings certainly don't want any [potential legal] entanglements."
Rosenhaus said that Kings president of basketball operations Geoff Petrie has phoned Philadelphia officials. The Eagles office was closed on Friday and team president Joe Banner did not immediately return a message left on his cell phone. Time is a factor for Owens because the Las Vegas summer league in which the Kings are entered begins play next week.
A Kings spokesman said it is believed the invitation was extended because of Owens' friendship with Sacramento owners Joe Maloof and Gavin Maloof.
Owens' interest in basketball is well documented. He played basketball for three seasons in college at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, starting five games in that stretch, and in the summer of 2002 appeared in five games for the Adirondack Wildcats of the United States Basketball League.
In 2000, Owens won the celebrity dunking competition at the NBA All-Star Game played in Oakland. He also has a full-size basketball court at his home in Atlanta, which he uses as part of his personal conditioning program.
As for Owens' primary occupation, Rosenhaus said that the situation remains status quo, but that he did speak with Banner recently.
Rosenhaus strongly hinted that Owens would consider a trade, but said he has been denied permission by the Eagles organization to seek out trade scenarios, and that he knows of no current discussions to move his client to another team.
"Right now," Rosenhaus said, "I'm not sure what to expect."

Topic: Feeling sad
I think and feel mum every minute of the day. I am sad, but why is it that I cannot cry no more.
Did we mourn her death before she even passed? I feel guilty.
My sister Pia and brother Harry feel the same way. Did we focus too much on her death before she even passed? Is this normal?
Every time I think of mum, I feel this soft sensation on my shoulder. I know she is with me, but I so much want to cry and cant.

A BRIERLEY Hill cannabis dealer has been jailed after he was caught with nearly £1,200 worth of the controlled drug.
Howard Searle, prosecuting, told Wolverhampton Crown Court that police officers spotted Mahmood Tahsin, aged 24, with two known drug users acting suspiciously and they saw them all disappear into an alleyway.
They detained Tahsin after a struggle and when searched at Brierley Hill Police Station he was found to be in possession of 34 cannabis deals.
Then, when police searched a flat in the High Street above the alleyway, they recovered a further 69 bags of cannabis valued at £1,190.
Tahsin admitted two charges of possessing cannabis with intent to supply and he was told by Judge John Wait it was clear he was a street dealer selling drugs to fuel his own habit.
The judge said it was accepted Tahsin was a heavy user of cannabis at the rate of £150 worth a week and he had squandered the opportunity of a drug rehabilitation order he had been given at a previous court hearing.
He ruled a ten month jail term for the offences should run consecutively to a three month sentence currently being served by Tahsin after he was caught driving while disqualified for the fourth time.
Simon Hanns, for Tahsin, said his client had been under financial pressure at the time he committed the offences.

Mobile messaging will drive data revenue and provide operators with the tools to bring multimedia into the hands of users, according to a new study by IDC. Quoted in a Press Release, Paolo Pescatore, senior analyst for IDC�s European Wireless and Mobile Communications Service, says: Mobile messaging will be the bridge that will assist operators to aid the take-up of mobile data in Western Europe. It is important to remember that mobile messaging allows users to communicate, depending on their needs and acceptance of using that medium. SMS is discreet, direct, and in most cases quick, whereas the first offerings of MMS allow users to send pictures to one another, and IM offers presence allowing users to interact with other users. So much is mentioned and said about killer applications but in terms of potential and current usage of SMS so far, mobile messaging will be the killer cocktail for mobile operators.

Martinez back in lineup after brief absence
DETROIT -- Victor Martinez's absence from the Tigers' starting lineup lasted a day. Detroit's designated hitter returned Wednesday after missing Tuesday's game with a cut on the top of his right thumb.
The cut required eight stitches.
"The word is that it doesn't seem to bother him at all [swinging] right-handed, but I can't swear to that," manager Jim Leyland said.
With a left-handed pitcher, Mark Buehrle, scheduled to start for the Jays, Martinez wouldn't have to worry about swinging from the left side.

Not the best quality but my girl still loves it
My daughter is eager to turn her little girl's room into a more a tween appropriate one. She knew she wanted pink and lime green for colors and fell in love with this set. It was a great deal for the price and she loves the little ottoman and the laundry bag that came with it. The material the sheets and comforter are made out of don't feel nice to me at all -- slippery and nylonish -- but she doesn't seem to mind it. Yes, they are soft, but they do feel a bit like sleeping bag material. I personally wouldn't like the feel of the sheets or comforter, but my daughter really loves the way it looks and the quality doesn't matter to her. I have not tried to wash the comforter yet. I'm a little nervous to see how it washes. I hope it doesn't fall apart.Read More

So cute!!
Didn't expect much from this set due to the price. I've looked at other dorm room sets and they were at least twice as much. So, bought this anyway as a possible backup. I was really surprised! The quality is nice and the comforter is soft and warm. My daughter is using the comforter now before she even gets to school since it is so soft and really cute! The sheets seem a little thin but time will tell if they wear okay. But still, the comforter and shams are really nice quality...I'll take it!Read More

Xbox 360 motion camera Kinect will sell over 3m units this holiday period following its launch this November, platform holder Microsoft has claimed.
"Our estimates that we will sell in excess of 3m units this holiday," Microsoft Xbox product director Aaron Greenberg told Gamasutra.
"Our key indicators are feedback from retailers -- I think you'd be surprised at how sophisticated they are, and they really have the pulse of the market."
"They're looking at pre-orders, they're talking to customers. We're also done our own research. We believe this will be the biggest launch in our history, for Xbox. We will sell more Kinect sensors than we did Xbox 360 at launch."
Greenberg also added that despite this new thrust into the motion market, Microsoft's focus will remain very much on joypad-based gaming.
"As a platform all-up, I think you'll continue to see the majority of titles controller-based," he added. "The core of our business is blockbuster games, and that will not change. We see this as additive."

1993 Springer Softail
Building a bike doesn't always require a king's ransom. Just ask Jeff Reno of Lancaster, California. He put together this Springer on a budget but still made it look good and run hard by accenting the bike's original form with tasteful modifications and aftermarket parts.
Starting with a '93 Harley, Reno lowered the bike 1½ inches in the rear and 1 inch in the front to get the proper stance. Then he bolted on some stainless-steel spoke wheels (21 inches in the front and 16 inches in the rear) and wrapped them with Metzeler rubber.
In an effort to smooth the lines of the bike, the stock front fender struts were chopped 1 inch to eliminate the space between the tire and the front fender, and a Heritage rear fender was bobbed, shaped and smoothed to follow the wheel and tire lines. The stock gas tank was stretched and the dash customized by Reno and Dave Stanley to further accent the lines of the bike. Then two '59 Caddy taillight lenses were mounted in custom housings on each side of the swing arm, along with some repop toolboxes, to really personalize the effort.
To clean up the fork area, S&N bars equipped with Custom Chrome handgrips were bolted on the stock risers, with the stock headlight and the Drag Specialties turn signals leading the way. A Lepera Daytona seat and Kuryakyn footrests were bolted on for cruising comfort. The engine was mildly pumped with a Crane 316 Fireball cam, a jet kit and a custom exhaust system by Chip. Notice how the exhaust tubes run parallel to each other and how the angled cut of the tips enhances the bike's overall look. Small details such as these give this Springer a trick appearance. To finish it all off, Reno painted the bike black with candy colors splashed over the tank.
Reno's candy cruiser proves that you can have a cool custom bike without breaking the bank—it just takes some thought and effort to pull everything together.

I'm an Oregonian in Phoenix contemplating a 6 hour run and the temps are approaching 110. I've heard 20 Oz an hour but don't think that is enough. I did a 2 hour run today and would have been in trouble without fountains along the way. I was thinking of an out and back on the National trial, no chance of more water with 140 OZ. How many oz's would you want if you were running 6 hrs in 105 temps?
How much water
I was managing a six-mile loop on two frozen bottles (22 ounce size). They thawed fast enough to drink as I went. I tried the first day with just the two bottles, but they got too hot to drink. It was 112º-116º the week I was in Phoenix (Chandler area--open running with no shade).
Sorry, that doesn't answer your question. I was living in Corvallis at the time. I basically doubled my intake.
good lord! I think I'd spend the 6 hours in a pool with sunscreen!
you guys are insane!
Just do a shorter run.
But Marcus, even with a shorter run there is a hydration problem. The first time we ran in Death Valley we decided on a nice little almost flat dirt road that we drove down until we were two miles from the highway. We ran back to the highway, turned around and returned to the car. We each had one hand-bottle, but I put on a single-bottle fanny pack... just in case.
We emptied the hand bottles and were glad to have the third bottle--118ºF at Stovepipe, a relatively cool day in the valley.
No matter the distance, in desert running you need to have a good idea of what you will need (and you need to have it). I would much rather have the 100-ounce bladder full and finish with a few ounces still in it instead of being a few miles out with my brain baking and nothing to drink.
If it's really hot it is actually more important to keep your cap and your body wet with water. You can only drink and sweat so much. Cooling from the outside is the key.
Any chance you can get a car parked at the turn around point at national? You're probably already on the trail, but national is great, actually all of South Mountain is great.
Watch out for the downhill mt. bikers who don't like to pay attention.
Thanks everyone. I followed John's lead and switched to loops at thunderbird, that has a fountain. also did a loop at Deems hills, I wished I would have went to Deems for the whole time, the fountain there is ice cold! I ran 5 hours and probably drank 250 Oz water plus 32 Oz gatoraid, John's call on double usual was spot on. I would have been in trouble on the national trail without a resupply. Markus, good advice on using water to cool the head, although that didn't help for that long, dried in about 10 minutes. But, please mellow out on the haranguing about long runs.Skipping long runs may work good for you but I find them essential. Plus, I run ultras because I like to run long.
Glad you had a good run. My first trip to the Phoenix area (supposedly to visit my daughter) was to experiment with water. The first two days were crashes as the water became too hot to drink. There were water fountains near the trails, but the water lines were pretty close to the surface because all of the water was too hot to drink.
I did use a sponge inside my cap... might have lasted 12 minutes instead of the 10 you got.
Congrats on getting in five hours down there. The relative cool temperatures of the PNW can surely play havoc with running in the warm.
But, please mellow out on the haranguing about long runs.Skipping long runs may work good for you but I find them essential. Plus, I run ultras because I like to run long.
You can run as long as you want Gumby66. But from my experience a lot of the slower runners focus to much on way too long runs instead of getting a bit faster. There is a difference if a 2:10 Marathoner runs 2 hours or if you run two hours.
Maybe if he had a better avatar?

This. I always err on the side of having too much water instead of not enough. (I've also found myself depending on water fountains before, only to discover they are broken or turned off.)
Maybe if he had a better avatar?
His avatar is from the cover of UltraRunning magazine, October 2010,... something about a 22:42:04 100-mile time, fifth overall, at the Tahoe Rim Trail. That is him on the cover--very well done run for...
a) an almost old guy,
b) someone from Ohryghun,
c) having a lot of rocks in the way,
d) someone having one of those neato Cascade Crest caps on,
e) all or none or some of the above.
Some covers...
I thought you were talking about ultramarkus.
Is sort of obtuse... you need to get out of New York and run Tahoe, hee hee, no, that isn't funny, that is serious. Everyone should get to run somewhere in the Sierra at least once.
What is that little person sort of thing next to your name?

Wondering what to do with pears this season? If you are trying to eat seasonally, pears are a great choice now!
Growing up in Ohio, I never ate fresh pears. They were always canned, gritty and pretty flavorless. I never understood why anyone would like them. Canned pears rank about as low as canned asparagus in my book. If you've ever had canned asparagus, you know what I mean.
Then I was introduced to fresh pears…
As is often the situation, a fresh, seasonal pear is entirely different from a pear half in a can. If you have never tried one, give it a shot now while they are in season. Here's what to try:
Anjou Pears are the second-most recognizable pear in the US. This egg-shaped pear is the most plentiful variety, which means you'll find Anjou pears in the US during most of the year. There are two varieties – red and green.
Bartlett Pears are the most common variety in the US. Bartletts can be yellow or red and have a true pear shape – wide at the bottom, narrow at the top.
Bosc Pears have a brown skin and are considered a more elegant pear. They are more firm and dense than other pears and despite what you may think, their brown skin is edible!
No matter which pear variety you enjoy most, make sure they are ripe for the best flavor and texture!
According to the Pear Bureau Northwest, you can use the Check the Neck for Ripeness™ daily by gently pressing your thumb near the stem end of the pear. When it gives slightly, the pear is ripe.
Why "Check the Neck?" Pears ripen from the inside out and the neck is the narrowest part of the pear. If you wait until the bottom half becomes soft, the pear will be over-ripe. When that happens, you won't want to eat the pear raw, but it could make a great addition to a fruit smoothie or other recipe.
Ashley and I made poached pears for our recent cooking demo at the Cancer Support Community Atlanta. Check out her recipe below for a healthy dessert!
1 vanilla bean
6 firm pears such as Bosc or Barlett
1.5 cups of low fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
6 cups water
3 cups sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
Zest of 1 lemon
Combine the water, sugar, cinnamon sticks, and lemon zest in a medium saucepan. Split vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and add both the seeds and the pod to the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Peel the pears. Reduce the poaching liquid to a simmer and add the pears. Cook until tender (the tip of a knife will go through the flesh of a pear with just a little resistance), about 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool the pears in the poaching liquid, until completely cooled, about 45 minutes. Serve the pears with some vanilla yogurt topped with walnuts and a little pear-poaching liquid.

Rx onlyClose
Trihexyphenidyl HCl is a synthetic antispasmodic. Each tablet, for oral administration, contains 2 mg or 5 mg trihexyphenidyl HCl, and the following inactive ingredients: Anhydrous Lactose, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide, Corn Starch, Magnesium Stearate, and Microcrystalline Cellulose.
Trihexyphenidyl HCl is a white or slightly off white, crystalline powder, having not more than a very faint odor.
Trihexyphenidyl HCl is chemically designated as (±)-α-Cyclohexyl-α-phenyl-1-piperidinepropanol hydrochloride [52-49-3]. Its molecular formula is C20H31NO•HCl, and the molecular weight is 337.93. The structural formula is:
Trihexyphenidyl exerts a direct inhibitory effect upon the parasympathetic nervous system. It also has a relaxing effect on smooth musculature; exerted both directly upon the muscle tissue itself and indirectly through an inhibitory effect upon the parasympathetic nervous system. Its therapeutic properties are similar to those of atropine although undesirable side effects are ordinarily less frequent and severe than with the latter.Close
Trihexyphenidyl HCl tablets are indicated as an adjunct in the treatment of all forms of parkinsonism (postencephalitic, arteriosclerotic, and idiopathic). It is often useful as adjuvant therapy when treating these forms of parkinsonism with levodopa. Additionally, it is indicated for the control of extrapyramidal disorders caused by central nervous system drugs such as the dibenzoxazepines, phenothiazines, thioxanthenes, and butyrophenones.Close
Patients to be treated with trihexyphenidyl should have a gonioscope evaluation and close monitoring of intraocular pressures at regular periodic intervals.Close
Although trihexyphenidyl is not contraindicated for patients with cardiac, liver, or kidney disorders, or with hypertension, such patients should be maintained under close observation.
Since the use of trihexyphenidyl may in some cases continue indefinitely and since it has atropine-like properties, patients should be subjected to constant and careful long-term observation to avoid allergic and other untoward reactions. Inasmuch as trihexyphenidyl possesses some parasympatholytic activity, it should be used with caution in patients with glaucoma, obstructive disease of the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tracts, and in elderly males with possible prostatic hypertrophy. Geriatric patients, particularly over the age of 60, frequently develop increased sensitivity to the actions of drugs of this type, and hence, require strict dosage regulation. Incipient glaucoma may be precipitated by parasympatholytic drugs such as trihexyphenidyl.
Tardive dyskinesia may appear in some patients on long-term therapy with antipsychotic drugs or may occur after therapy with these drugs has been discontinued. Antiparkinsonism agents do not alleviate the symptoms of tardive dyskinesia, and in some instances may aggravate them. However, parkinsonism and tardive dyskinesia often coexist in patients receiving chronic neuroleptic treatment, and anticholinergic therapy with trihexyphenidyl may relieve some of these parkinsonism symptoms.Close
Minor side effects, such as dryness of the mouth, blurring of vision, dizziness; mild nausea or nervousness, will be experienced by 30 to 50 percent of all patients. These sensations, however, are much less troublesome with trihexyphenidyl than with belladonna alkaloids and are usually less disturbing than unalleviated parkinsonism. Such reactions tend to become less pronounced, and even to disappear, as treatment continues. Even before these reactions have remitted spontaneously, they may often be controlled by careful adjustment of dosage form, amount of drug, or interval between doses.
Isolated instances of suppurative parotitis secondary to excessive dryness of the mouth, skin rashes, dilatation of the colon, paralytic ileus, and certain psychiatric manifestations such as delusions and hallucinations, plus one doubtful case of paranoia all of which may occur with any of the atropine-like drugs, have been reported rarely with trihexyphenidyl.
Patients with arteriosclerosis or with a history of idiosyncrasy to other drugs may exhibit reactions of mental confusion, agitation, disturbed behavior, or nausea and vomiting. Such patients should be allowed to develop a tolerance through the initial administration of a small dose and gradual increase in dose until an effective level is reached. If a severe reaction should occur, administration of the drug should be discontinued for a few days and then resumed at a lower dosage. Psychiatric disturbances can result from indiscriminate use (leading to overdosage) to sustain continued euphoria.
Potential side effects associated with the use of any atropine-like drugs include constipation, drowsiness, urinary hesitancy or retention, tachycardia, dilation of the pupil, increased intraocular tension, weakness, vomiting, and headache.
The occurrence of angle-closure glaucoma due to long-term treatment with trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride has been reported.Close
Dosage should be individualized. The initial dose should be low and then increased gradually, especially in patients over 60 years of age. Whether trihexyphenidyl HCl may best be given before or after meals should be determined by the way the patient reacts. Postencephalitic patients, who are usually more prone to excessive salivation, may prefer to take it after meals and may, in addition, require small amounts of atropine which, under such circumstances, is sometimes an effective adjuvant. If trihexyphenidyl HCl tends to dry the mouth excessively, it may be better to take it before meals, unless it causes nausea. If taken after meals, the thirst sometimes induced can be allayed by mint candies, chewing gum or water.
Trihexyphenidyl HCl in Idiopathic Parkinsonism
As initial therapy for parkinsonism, 1 mg of trihexyphenidyl HCl may be administered the first day. The dose may then be increased by 2 mg increments at intervals of three to five days, until a total of 6 to 10 mg is given daily. The total daily dose will depend upon what is found to be the optimal level. Many patients derive maximum benefit from this daily total of 6 to 10 mg, but some patients, chiefly those in the postencephalitic group, may require a total daily dose of 12 to 15 mg.
Trihexyphenidyl HCl in Drug-Induced Parkinsonism
The size and frequency of dose of trihexyphenidyl HCl needed to control extrapyramidal reactions to commonly employed tranquilizers, notably the phenothiazines, thioxanthenes, and butyrophenones, must be determined empirically. The total daily dosage usually ranges between 5 and 15 mg, although, in some cases, these reactions have been satisfactorily controlled on as little as 1 mg daily. It may be advisable to commence therapy with a single 1 mg dose. If the extrapyramidal manifestations are not controlled in a few hours, the subsequent doses may be progressively increased until satisfactory control is achieved. Satisfactory control may sometimes be more rapidly achieved by temporarily reducing the dosage of the tranquilizer on instituting trihexyphenidyl HCl therapy and then adjusting dosage of both drugs until the desired ataractic effect is retained without onset of extrapyramidal reactions.
It is sometimes possible to maintain the patient on a reduced trihexyphenidyl HCl dosage after the reactions have remained under control for several days. Instances have been reported in which these reactions have remained in remission for long periods after trihexyphenidyl HCl therapy was discontinued.
Concomitant Use of Trihexyphenidyl HCl with Levodopa
When trihexyphenidyl HCl is used concomitantly with levodopa, the usual dose of each may need to be reduced. Careful adjustment is necessary, depending on side effects and degree of symptom control. Trihexyphenidyl HCl dosage of 3 to 6 mg daily, in divided doses, is usually adequate.
Concomitant Use of Trihexyphenidyl HCl with Other Parasympathetic Inhibitors
Trihexyphenidyl HCl may be substituted, in whole or in part, for other parasympathetic inhibitors. The usual technique is partial substitution initially, with progressive reduction in the other medication as the dose of trihexyphenidyl HCl is increased.
The total daily intake of trihexyphenidyl HCl tablets is tolerated best if divided into 3 doses and taken at mealtimes. High doses (>10 mg daily) may be divided into 4 parts, with 3 doses administered at mealtimes and the fourth at bedtime.

Darren Collison...smh.
Save us Leandro Barbosa!
Just glad that's over with.... let's hope Leandro becomes what he was with Pheonix.
This ship may have too much water in her to be saved at this point.
I really hope the thing to take away from this game is that the Knicks are fired up with a new coach and that we'll look back on losing both games of a home-and-home as 'not an atrocity.'
Either way, Peck, your Odd Thoughts can be as angry and frustrated as you can muster.
Danny and Fluffy were particularly bad tonight. I'll also add that the game thread was pretty calm all things considered.
The root of the majority of our problems start with Darren. He's the one the brings the ball up, eventually stalling our offense...and he's the one that lets EVERY one drive right by him, forcing our D to collapse and breakdown
Well, good thing Barbosa isn't Italian.
Yep WWE has become more real than this seriously how can they get away with it all the time honest question
This is just sad
At the very least, a nice bounce-back game from Roy Hibbert.
I feel sorry for Pacers fans at the game... There's no remote control to jump between channels at the arena.
Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.
"A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself in the group, for the good of the group, thats teamwork."
-John Wooden
His D was still pretty bad as was his inability to maintain position on either side of the floor.
The refs had nothing to do with our lack of hustle and inability to box out on the defensive glass tonight. If you want to blame someone, blame the Pacers. That was just awful "basketball."
By the way, Danny is trending on Twitter right now and is getting torn apart for his comments after the Philly game.
Didn't see the game, but lost by more than 10 points again. smh Pacers would be the only team that can't score at least 100 on these guys.
Hibbert had a nice game at least! Let's find a positive in this game.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
I thought we played better. I also think Paul is playing very well. Hibbert also played well. But the Knicks scored like crazy because we cannot defend the point...with Lin scoring more than any other Knick.
I was going to add that caveat, but I wanted to stay positive.
I can't be the only one who wants to go downtown and punch everyone with a Lin jersey/sign/Knicks T-shirt in the face.
I doubt most of them can name an NBA player outside of the Knicks, or even cared that the NBA existed 2 months ago. That's just irking me for some reason.
When he has to guard Lin, Stoudemire and Chandler...well, let's just say it's tough.
I hate the Knicks I suppose, but I don't understand all the venom directed at Lin and his fans. It's good for the game to get some international attention IMO.

The lockout meant a lot of things to a lot of people, but for the Pacers the resulting collective bargaining agreement was the reaffirmation of a specific management philosophy. In light of the CBA changes, the Pacers' brand of small ball suddenly seemed less like a toss of the dice and more like the strategy of the future for small-market clubs. It's a simple strategy but not easily duplicated: precise draft picks (Granger, Hibbert, George), prudent trades (Barbosa) and prescient free agent signings (West). That's how the Pacers created the kind of chemistry that took them to the Eastern Conference semifinals (their first since 2005) with the third-lowest payroll in the league. With a smaller front office and less money, they simply can't afford the toe-tapping free agent games that other big-market teams can, and what has resulted is a finely calibrated personnel strategy. The Pacers could be the Eastern Conference version of the Thunder, only leaner, cheaper and more efficient (the Thunder have the 14th-lowest payroll; the Pacers have the 28th). And this homespun management style has caught on well with the plainspoken basketball fans of Indiana. It helps that the Pacers were voted the most affordable team in the NBA. It also means that categories like ownership, coaching and players received 40-plus point boosts in our poll. With the new CBA set to start showing its teeth in the years to come, the Pacers are set up to be the franchise of the future.

Ryu impresses; Billingsley, Beckett ailing
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Hyun-Jin Ryu's dominant start Sunday was good timing for the Dodgers, who now are dealing with minor ailments for Chad Billingsley and Josh Beckett, not to mention the goal of getting Zack Greinke back into a game.
Ryu allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings with six strikeouts. He walked two back-to-back in the third inning when he appeared to struggle with umpire Mike DiMuro's strike zone, then retired the next 11 batters before being removed because of a 90-pitch limit.
That puts him even with Clayton Kershaw at pitch counts, but the rest of the rotation is having trouble keeping up.
Billingsley will miss his next scheduled start Wednesday because he bruised the index finger of his pitching hand while bunting during batting practice. X-rays were negative. It wouldn't be a total shock if Greinke makes that start, assuming he comes out of his Sunday bullpen session with no elbow soreness.
Beckett is still tentatively scheduled to start Monday, but he was sent home early Sunday with the flu for the second day. Chris Capuano should start on Tuesday. Aaron Harang will probably start a Minor League game on Thursday, when Stephen Fife will make the bus ride to Tucson for the Dodgers Green charity game.
Kershaw, who doesn't expect to miss any time after getting struck on the left Achilles by a comebacker Saturday, will likely get an extra day of rest and start Friday.
The Dodgers only hope they all should pitch as well as Ryu did Sunday, when he was facing some of the Brewers for the second consecutive start.
"That was a good test for him and he executed," said catcher A.J. Ellis. "He has the ability to throw any pitch any time, to mix things up. His fastball command was really strong. When he walked the first two hitters [in the third inning], that was a good test, and he pitched his way out of it. It was fun to see. The development of his breaking stuff this spring has been the key to his success."
Perhaps the club was expecting too much from Ryu earlier in camp, when his resistance to throwing bullpen sessions raised a red flag, but his gradual improvement the last three starts strikes of a veteran pitcher knowing what he needs to do to be ready for the regular season.
"Maybe," manager Don Mattingly said of that theory. "He's a confident guy from the beginning. He's easygoing, confident in what he can do. If this is how he does it next spring, we can say we didn't know the guy [this spring]."
Ryu acknowledged that, as a foreigner coming to the Major Leaguers, there were expectations to do well immediately.
"But for me, that's not the priority," he said. "For me, it's getting ready for the season."

Tanaka tabbed to start against Phillies
TAMPA, Fla. -- Masahiro Tanaka's next assignment will come as a starter, as manager Joe Girardi has announced that Tanaka is scheduled to start on Thursday against the Phillies in Clearwater, Fla.
Tanaka, 25, made his debut as a reliever in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Phillies at George M. Steinbrenner Field, throwing two scoreless innings. He allowed two singles and struck out three, with no walks.
"I think he handled it really well," Girardi said. "I know he's pitched out of the bullpen, but the way he did it yesterday, he's not used to doing [that] all the time.
"But I think he handled the situation really well, because I think there's been a lot of anticipation for that, and I think there will be a lot of anticipation for his first real start."
Girardi said that Tanaka's poise has been encouraging. Tanaka has not seemed to have any issues dealing with the attention surrounding his arrival in camp or the seven-year, $155 million contract he signed.
"It gives you a belief that he can handle it," Girardi said.
With Tanaka drawing Thursday's starting nod on the road, left-hander CC Sabathia will remain behind to throw in a simulated game at George M. Steinbrenner Field. Sabathia threw two scoreless innings in his spring debut.

299-part Harmony!Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.
Long ago in the Warring States period (475-221 B.C.) of China, there was a state called Qi. The Emperor of Qi was very fond of listening to the music played on the Yu, a piped instrument, so he convened a band of 300. From all walks of life and from all regions of the state the Yu players came, each seeking the prestigious position of a court performer, until the required band of 300 players was formed. Every day this band was called in to play the Yu for his Majesty at teatime. The Emperor's keen ears seemed to be very satisfied with the band and the harmonies performed, and the performers were well rewarded.
As a matter of fact, for one of the players named Nan Guo, his ability on the instrument was poor at best, but he did manage to pass himself off. He was included just to make up the required 300 performers. He would usually seat himself in the middle and pretended to be playing the Yu together with the others, and everything seemed good for him. He had never been exposed and went on well with his inferior ability.
After many years of lavish living in such a rich palace lifestyle, Nan Guo grew conceited, proud and even vain over his talent, or in reality his lack of it. Each day he would join the other members of the band, dressed in fine silks, and with a full belly would march out to the peony pavilion to play for the Emperor. Nan Guo had learned long ago that one among 300 would never be found out. But on a sad autumn day, dressed in the finest of white silks 'playing' among the three hundred in the Emperor's funeral procession, he was playing for his own passing days without realizing it.
The new Emperor, Min, was also a lover of the Yu, like the old ruler, and every day would also enjoy the music of the Yu with his tea. Then suddenly one day Nan Guo packed up and fled the grand palace, leaving everything he owned behind, and was never to be heard of again. Why?
HintOnly one thing had changed. There were neither human sacrifices nor eunuchs to be made of the band members. Nan Guo still wished to remain a part of the Yu band and this good life.
AnswerNan Guo found out his days of the good life were at an end when it turned out that Prince Min, who ascended to the throne, only enjoyed Yu in SOLO performances rather than harmony. He was known as a man who did not take kindly to incompetency, to put it mildly. So when he was called to play before the Emperor, it was said that Nan Guo jumped on a horse and rode away from the grand palace, never to be heard of again.
Later people would use the idiom, "using a bad piper to fulfill the number", to describe those who don't have genuine abilities or experience and are included just to meet the required number.

The trailers for Side Effects, director Steven Soderbergh's new thriller, make it look like an indictment of all things pharmaceutical. It's not that, though its view of the pharmaceutical industry is pretty grim. Rather, it's a conventional thriller that has the smart pacing, loose-looking but tightly planned camerawork, and excellent performances we've come to expect from Soderbergh.
It's a bummer, then, that he's done making movies—for now. Who else can direct films as diverse as Contagion, Haywire, Magic Mike and now, Side Effects, all within the span of two years? At least we HBO subscribers still have Behind the Candelabra, his movie about Liberace, to anticipate.
But back to Side Effects. It's nifty, it's nimble and it's mildly mean-spirited, if you're given to the bent that we've had enough movies about evil women. I'm not given to that bent. A thriller needs an evil character, and there's a 50-percent chance that character could have ovaries.
Emily Taylor (Rooney Mara, not entirely shaking the Lisbeth Salander mannerisms) is suffering from severe depression. Her husband, Martin (a little-seen Channing Tatum), has been in prison for four years after being convicted of insider trading. Now he's out, and she's a mess as they readjust.
After a botched suicide attempt, she's prescribed antidepressants by Dr. Jonathan Banks (Jude Law) at the hospital where she's treated. They don't work. Banks puts her on different medications. She starts sleepwalking. Bad, bad things happen.
I usually don't care about giving up spoilers, mostly because you can see them coming. But to reveal too much of Side Effects would be to truly give away too much, and there are many layers to this psychological thriller.
A few of those layers, especially as the movie moves toward its conclusion, are completely eye-roll-worthy. In fact, the movie's big a-ha! moment—not the part about who's grifting whom, but the way in which that person grifts the other—is so absurd, it actually produced a groan in the theater.
Here's the thing about Soderbergh, though, and this is why he's going to be missed (if he actually quits): The groan-worthiness of that moment—and it's a doozy—is assuaged by his characteristic quick, but not choppy, editing; short scenes; and the excellent photography that goes along with it. How the actors get through this particular scene looking as committed as they do is a wonder, but they're all pros; and besides, nothing is as embarrassing as Playing For Keeps must have been for Catherine Zeta-Jones (who appears here as a psychiatrist).
The best surprise about Side Effects is Law as Banks, showing the charisma, promise and likeability that some of his earlier performances hinted at, but that has been missing since, roughly, The Talented Mr. Ripley (which isn't nearly as good as you remember, anyway). Here, he plays a genuinely caring, nice guy who happens to be a psychiatrist, and who gets in over his head because he gets too involved with his patients.
Don't misunderstand; Banks is not a golden boy. Though there is something in Law's performance that makes us want to give him the benefit of the doubt long after our goodwill for his character's shortcomings should have evaporated.
The weak link is Mara, who's saddled with playing a damsel in distress and a femme fatale at the same time. Damsel in distress she handles well enough. The toughness that she brought to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo seems to have faded, even as the plot machinations begin twisting in Side Effects' final third and her character shifts into overdrive.
Still, Side Effects works, and has moments that are great. It's worth seeing; and, for movie fans, it's worth hoping that Soderbergh's plan to paint full-time becomes part-time, and the other part-time job is making movies.
Directed by Steven Soderbergh / With Rooney Mara, Jude Law and Catherine Zeta-Jones / Regal Santa Fe Stadium 14; Storyteller Dreamcatcher 10 / R / 106 min.

Comments about Lizard Skins Co. Lizard Skins 2.5mm DSP Handlebar Tape:
The white tape on the Nashbar 105 is a terrible idea. Read the reviews on the LIzard Skins and paid the piper. Great feel and the Viking Purple looks awesome on the black Nashbar 105 bike. I saw the video but had a due bill at my LBS and they installed for free.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Competitive Cyclist
Decided to give this bar tape a try. I usually go with some sort of a cork product. One of the guys on our team put this on last year...he really liked the feel. I did my first ride last weekend with the new bar tape. Very grippy, especially with spring season gloves on. With midwest humidity this summer I'm hoping this bar tape will help keep my hands on the bars instead of slipping off since I usually don't like wearing bike gloves. I did have an accident a couple years ago where the hands were wet from sweat and humidity, slipped off and caused me to crash. So either get a great pair of gloves or try using this bar tape! Good Luck!

the best
By tonya

good tape, probably the best handlebar tape i've ever used...nice pad, there, but not too heavy or spongy, just right. good and grippy, very comfy and easy on your hands, helps you move up and down the bars with confidence. cuts a great profile, too. if you havent tried lizardskins, you probably should. good quality upgrade, two thumbs up.

Very good.....for a while.
By Pablo
from Des Moines, Ia
I put this tape on in the middle of May. I felt it looked and felt really good. Right away I put some 7-8 hour rides on it and it performed flawlessly. I got compliments on how nice it looked. But those days have come to an end already.I ride every day, rain or shine. It is now August and the tape is deteriorating...not just a case of it won't come clean anymore, but it's beginning to fray and separate on the outside of the bend near the hoods. Disappointing.I have used other tapes that were good for 12,000 miles. This one went about 2500. For nearly twice the cost, I expected a lot more. To be clear, I REALLY like the way this tape felt and performed while it was new- but I need a product that will last me a whole season, not just a couple of months.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Best bar tape ever
