An audit released by Cancer Council Victoria today has revealed that 88 per cent of Victorian public hospitals have a formal parking policy on their website, compared to zero per cent of private hospitals.
Cancer Council Victoria has today released the results of an audit of 21 health organisations responsible for 53 hospitals with fee-paying parking, conducted between February-April this year.
Among the audit's findings:
The audit follows a directive in November 2015 by Victorian Health Minister Jill Hennessy to Victorian public hospitals to review their car parking fees and publish and publicise formal policies that will reduce the burden on vulnerable patients, in particular those who frequently attend hospital.
Cancer Council Victoria CEO Todd Harper said that while there was more improvement to be made, some hospitals had performed exceptionally well in the audit, with considerable improvements made since last year.
Last year, Cancer Council Victoria's Investigation of parking at Victorian cancer treatment centres report found only one-in-five centres provided patients with information on local parking prior to commencing treatment.
Nurses moving cars for cancer patients, social workers challenging parking fines and doctors cutting short appointments to ensure patients move their cars were among the issues highlighted in the report.
It was revealed parking at a metropolitan centre for an uncomplicated patient with breast cancer was estimated at over $1100 for one year.
"It is encouraging to see cancer treatment centres across Victoria have taken this issue seriously. By addressing parking issues these centres will benefit patients, their families and medical professionals." Mr Harper said
One of the top-performing organisations was Western Health's Sunshine Hospital, where a media doorstop will be held today to release the audit.
"We congratulate Western Health on their commitment to easing the burden of car parking on frequent attenders. These measures include a free parking for oncology patients, clear and comprehensive information made publically available regarding eligibility for subsidy schemes, drop off areas, reserved parking spots for day oncology patients to limit walking distance, and details including costs and time limits of parking available on streets surrounding the hospital," Mr Harper said.
"However, we are also alarmed that many Victorian hospitals are not making information on car parking accessible to patients, and that for many, car parking is an added financial burden whilst undergoing cancer treatment."
Mr Harper said it was concerning that no private organisations had evidence of a formal parking policy, compared to 88% of public health organisations that did.
"We would like to see consistent information available to all Victorian cancer patients, whether they are receiving their treatment at a public or private hospital," Mr Harper said.
"If more treatment centres were able to provide this information in advance, patients could spend more time planning treatments and getting better, as well as freeing up doctors, nurses and social workers to do the most important part of their jobs."

Mistress Gingers Vegan Guilty Pleasures
Even a pristine level-seven vegan can indulge in those guilty pleasures of yesteryear.
All of my many lovers (who aren't vegan) think I'm oh-so-disciplined, that I eat only tree bark for breakfast and beet shrapnel for lunch, and that dinner consists of freshly chilled ice cubes with a spritz of lemon. Being the vegan goddess that I am, I do have a pristine plant-based diet, but that doesn't mean I don't know how to indulge occasionally in what might be considered junk food. In fact, I like to give into temptation every now and then because, as my dear friend Mae West once said, "You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough." And so here I go, revealing all my dirty secrets—my guilty vegan pleasures!
1. Nutter Butter
Every now and then, I visit the local hardware store (partly because I have a major crush on Chad, the checkout guy). Near the counter where I tend to loiter is an array of snacks, and I always manage to snag a mini-pack of Nutter Butter. They're delicious, and Chad agrees. So, if you do find yourself at your local hardware store, be sure to grab some of the Nutter Butter. But, hands off of Chad! He's one guilty pleasure that's all mine.
2. Oreos
When I'm filling up my gas tank at the Pump-n-Munch, how can I possibly resist the miniature pack of Oreo cookies? They are perhaps the classic vegan junk food and a timeless treat. Though old school, they never get old to me! And for an especially devilish indulgence, I whip them up with some vanilla So Delicious nondairy ice cream. Did somebody say "vegan Blizzard?" Forget Dairy Queen—I'll be your Non-Dairy Queen!
3. Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tarts
Aaaaannnndddd when I'm at the local video store (yes, my neighborhood still has an actual brick-and-mortar DVD-rental place), they've got that rack of treats with the microwave popcorn, but my eyes go to the two-pack of Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tarts. Sure, I feel a little self-conscious when I plop them on the counter along with every film ever made featuring vegan heartthrob Joaquin Phoenix, but I don't care. As long as I don't burn the Pop-Tarts, it's all good.
4. Kettle-cooked potato chips
Whenever I find these salty morsels at, well, anywhere, I make sure to grab a bag because the extra crunch of the kettle-cooker puts them in a naughty bracket all their own. So as not to seem totally brutish, I serve them in my grandmother's Blue Willow China. And—because presentation is everything, dearie—even when you're gorging on chips and binging on Netflix.
5. Fudge-covered graham squares
When I'm shopping for new panties at Dollar Tree, I can't help but skip-to-my-lou over to their food aisle, which is surprisingly sprawling, wouldn't you say? Although I find it mildly disturbing to shop for food at a dollar store, that doesn't stop me from indulging in fudge-covered graham cookies that are reminiscent of something made by the Keebler elves themselves—but all vegan, oh-so-heavenly, and only one dollar!
6. Graham Crackers
Speaking of graham-cracker goodness, I need to talk to you about basic graham crackers and where you can find the vegan ones. Really, it ain't so easy to find them made without honey, especially if you're searching at the frou-frou natural food stores. That's when you hitch a ride down to the big ol' supermarket to get yourself a box of the original Nabisco grahams. These are good for making a vegan graham cracker pie crust, but they're also totally munchable straight out of the box.
7. Tater tots
While you're at the supermarket, be sure to prance on over to the frozen food section, where the Ore-Ida Tater Tots are calling, and you've got to answer that call. Grab a bag, run home, and pop them in the oven (but be sure to pay for them first). Serve them with a heap of ketchup, and then savor this nostalgic throwback to the best of the elementary school cafeteria, or to that time you were entertaining sailors at the VFW. Or was that just me?
When she's not indulging in guilty pleasures, Mistress Ginger can be found singing on the cabaret stage and whipping up new recipes for one or more of her many lovers.

STATESBORO — Brent Davis and Bob Bodine have lived together, worked together and for the last two years coached against each other.
And the offensive coordinators of Georgia Southern and The Citadel will bring similar philosophies into Saturday's game between the Eagles and Bulldogs at Johnson Hagood Stadium in Charleston, S.C.
Both GSU's Davis and The Citadel's Bodine have triple-option offenses embedded at their schools. And if the attacks spend most of Saturday looking like reflections in a mirror, there's a good reason: They are.
"There's no doubt we both have the same viewpoint from the offense," Davis said.
Lessons came from the guru of the triple option, Paul Johnson. Davis was part of Johnson's original staff at GSU in 1997.
Bodine came to Statesboro in 1999 to coach the outside linebackers. But Bodine, an offensive lineman at Tulane, always had a thirst for offense and moved to wide receivers coach the next two seasons. He directed the slotbacks when Mike Sewak took over for Johnson in 2002.
During the early years, Davis, Bodine and Brian Bohannon (now at Georgia Tech with Johnson) shared a place in Statesboro to cut down expenses.
"We always talked football," Davis said. "Bob coached in other offenses, but I think he always loved what we did here. Even though he was a defensive coach, he would come in and listen to our offensive meetings."
Bodine caught on quickly.
"One of the beauties of the offense is you can maximize it to your athletes," Bodine said.
Davis and Bodine proved that at Virginia Military Institute. With Davis the offensive coordinator and Bodine the offensive line coach, they installed the triple option at the private military school and led the nation in rushing offense in 2008 (averaging 357.5 yards) and 2009 (276.7 yards).
When Davis came back as GSU head coach Jeff Monken's offensive coordinator in 2010, the Eagles regained their perch among the nation's rushing leaders. In 2010, Southern was fourth in the nation with 261.2 rushing yards a game. Last season, the Eagles ranked second with 323.5 rushing yards a game.
In Charleston, a similar transformation occurred. Before Bodine arrived, The Citadel averaged 124.1 yards on the ground. Last season, the Bulldogs were third in the nation, grinding out 286.6 yards a game. (Wofford led the FCS with 364.6 rushing yards a game.)
Last season, The Citadel outrushed Georgia Southern, 239-191, during a 14-12 loss.
"They do a great job with their kids and they have a lot of experience with the offense," said Monken, noting Bulldogs quarterback/fullback coach Craig Candeto was the starting quarterback at Navy, another triple-option school.
Turning around The Citadel hasn't been easy for Bodine. Before the 2010 season, Miguel Starks, a quarterback expected to lead the offense, was dismissed from school after armed robbery and kidnapping charges. Two true freshmen quarterbacks, who had played in shotgun high school offenses, remained.
Bodine's starting center played fullback in high school.
"It was like a comedy of bad out there," Bodine said.
Bad reached a low point when The Citadel committed nine turnovers in a 20-0 loss to Georgia Southern in 2010 — the last time the teams met in Charleston.
Now the Bulldogs enter the GSU game coming off a 479-yard rushing effort against Charleston Southern. The Eagles had 557 yards on the ground against Jacksonville University.
GSU and The Citadel are 1-2 in rushing yards nationally after the first week of play.
The Eagles like to get the ball outside to speedy backs in space. The Bulldogs try to pound opponents with quick-hitting plays up the middle.
Davis and Bodine say their personnel dictates the play calling.
"For their athletes, it's a different deal," Bodine said. "You get them in space and they're gone. For us, the holes close up quickly.
"It's funny, there was a time when we'd go to different camps together to learn as much as we could about the option. Now we're hoping the other guy didn't take very good notes."
Records: GSU (1-0); Citadel (1-0)
When: 6 p.m. Saturday
Where: Johnson Hagood Stadium, Charleston, S.C.
TV/radio: No TV/WZAT 102.1 FM in Savannah; WBMZ 103.7 FM in Statesboro.

Strong revival in iPhone sales sees Apple's Q1 profit reach $18bn
By Reuters
Apple reclaimed the throne as the world's top smartphone seller for the first time in five years on Tuesday, beating out rival Samsung in units shipped for the holiday quarter and boosting revenues with a strong showing for its new, top-of-the-line iPhone 7 Plus.
The iPhone sales numbers, and a profit of almost $18 billion, both handily beat Wall Street expectations, sending its shares up 3 percent in after-hours trading.
But the gains were tempered by Apple's cautious outlook for the current quarter, which it mainly attributed to the strong US dollar, which hurts companies like Apple that sell a majority of their products overseas, by forcing them to raise prices, which depresses unit sales, or sacrifice margins.
Apple sold 78.29 million iPhones in the fiscal first quarter ended Dec. 31, up from 74.78 million the year before. Analysts on average had expected 77.42 million, according to research firm FactSet StreetAccount.
That beat Samsung Electronics' 77.5 million smartphone sales in the quarter, according to tech data firm Strategy Analytics, the first time that has happened since the fourth quarter of 2011.
The results, which reflected the first full quarter of iPhone 7 sales, come at a time when global demand for smartphones is slowing and cheaper Android alternatives are flooding the market. Apple may also have benefited from Samsung's much-publicized recall of the its fire-prone Galaxy Note 7.
Apple is heavily dependent on the success of iPhones, which account for more than two-thirds of its total revenue.

An exit from the EU could bring Britain and Australia closer than ever before.
An interesting thing has happened to our cousins in the north – the prospect of Britain leaving the EU has moved from the unthinkable to the thinkable. The British policy-making elite has long considered the topic as beyond polite conversation, but the complacency of yesteryear has been replaced by bafflement, fear and full-blown panic at the realisation that le grand projet may be crumbling underfoot…
…Up until now the policy-making elite in Britain haven't given much thought to the actuality of a 'Brexit' because to prepare for that eventuality might be seen as encouraging it; but here is where it starts to get interesting for Australia.

Emma About
As in my brief Profile about my education background I will try to describe myself. I haven't won any award's yet so I don't really enter anything I never win.I am a Gemini so it says we have a split personality and change my mind a lot which is true. I was always interested in drawing and the art world since I was four sounds stupid but I was always drawing. as growing up I used to always think I didn't fit in and sometimes felt ignored by people but sometimes I think I know this sounds big headed but some people think they know it all but sometimes I ask a question and they don't answer my question and say something else anyway that's another topic I don't know everything in the world I just like to explore my option's. I'm a very open person I just don't see the point in lying. I get misunderstood sometimes. I don't really have any influences I just normally research alot for project then just look at them then do my own thing except if its's for a client but a little input off me will go into it. I like mixing new with old because I like history and don't want to live in a to modern world but still have places that have history. I am determined to try my Hardest in Life and hopefully succeed in life one day.

Ten seconds before the completion of a video item, an "up next" panel in the bottom left corner of the player will show, clearly identifying the next video item to be played.
Viewers can either use a next button in the control bar to skip the current video item or use the related module in the top-right corner to display an overlay element which will present the wall of related video items. See above for an example.
Video ads can be played each time a new video item is loaded within the player. The related UI is fully compatible with mobile devices. A built-in error-recovery mechanism is also provided to skip related items that may be unavailable.
The related module is compatible with most player features including HLS & DASH streaming and a dedicated related API exists to programmatically control the related layout. With Radiant Media Player 4.5.9+ the related module is fully compatible with Google Cast and AirPlay allowing for a top-nocth second-screen viewing experience of multiple media items.
Related video items data are stored in a JSON file that is retrieved and parsed by the player at run time. See below for information about how to construct this JSON file.
Here is a full example of well-formatted JSON file that can be used with Radiant Media Player to display related content.
The general structure is as follows. The required fields for each related item are:
All items within the related playlist must have the same bitrates type information (e.g. if you use HLS - each related item must have a HLS URL in its bitrates information; if you use MP4 progressive download - each related item must have a MP4 URL in its bitrates information)
Optional fields for each related item are:
ads to true
The related content layout was designed to display 16:9 content. Video content, poster, thumbnail and player size should be at a 16:9 ratio for best results. Other ratio may work but you may need to adjust player CSS to best fit your custom ratio.
{ "playlist": [ { "bitrates": { "hls": "https://dqwp3xzzbfhtw.cloudfront.net/vod/smil:bbb.smil/playlist.m3u8" }, "poster": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-1.jpg", "thumbnail": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-1-thumbnail-related.jpg", "adTagUrl": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/vast/tags/inline-linear.xml", "contentTitle": "Video Item 1", "contentDuration": "01:51" }, { "bitrates": { "hls": "https://dqwp3xzzbfhtw.cloudfront.net/vod/smil:ed.smil/playlist.m3u8" }, "poster": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-2.jpg", "thumbnail": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-2-thumbnail-related.jpg", "adTagUrl": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/vast/tags/inline-linear-skippable.xml", "contentTitle": "Video Item 2", "contentDuration": "10:53" }, { "bitrates": { "hls": "https://dqwp3xzzbfhtw.cloudfront.net/vod/smil:bbb-long.smil/playlist.m3u8" }, "poster": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-3.jpg", "thumbnail": "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-3-thumbnail-related.jpg", "adTagUrl": "https://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ads?sz=640x480&iu=/124319096/external/single_ad_samples&ciu_szs=300x250&impl=s&gdfp_req=1&env=vp&output=vast&unviewed_position_start=1&cust_params=deployment%3Ddevsite%26sample_ct%3Dlinear&correlator=", "contentTitle": "Video Item 3", "contentDuration": "09:56" } ] }
Another example of JSON related with MP4 progressive download can be found here.
relatedLoc: String
This set the path to the JSON file that hold information about the related content to display within the player. It can either be a fully qualified URL or a local/absolute path. Note that the related JSON file is loaded with XMLHttpRequest and thus it must be delivered with proper CORS setting for cross-site requests.
relatedUpNextOffset: Number
The time to end of content (in seconds) before the "up next" panel is shown to the viewer. Default: 10.
relatedUpNextAutoplay: Boolean
By default when a video item ends in the related playlist the next item is automatically played. Default: true. Setting this setting to false will cause the related engine to display the wall of related video item when the current video item ends (e.g. it will not autoplay next item).
relatedEndedLoop: Boolean
By default when the last item of the related playlist ends the player stops and shows the discovery overlay menu. When
relatedEndedLoop is set to true and the last item of the related playlist ends the player will automatically start
loading and displaying the first item in the related playlist (e.g. playlist loop). Default: false. When
relatedEndedLoop is set to true
relatedUpNextAutoplay must also be set to true to have effect.
The below code is used to display the example at top of this page:

This getter returns a
Number representing the index of the current related item being displayed. Index starts at 0.
null is returned if this value is not available.
This method sets the current related item being displayed.
index input parameter should be a number representing the desired related item to be displayed.
This method returns a boolean stating if the player is used with a related layout.
null is returned if this value is not available.
This method returns an ordered Array of Object where each Object represents a related item. Example of Object related item:
{ adTagUrl: "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/vast/tags/inline-linear.xml", bitrates: { hls : "https://dqwp3xzzbfhtw.cloudfront.net/vod/smil:bbb.smil/playlist.m3u8" }, contentDescription: "Playlist item 1", contentDuration: "01:51", contentTitle: "Video Item 1", poster: "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-1.jpg", thumbnail: "https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/media/playlist/poster/item-1-thumbnail-related.jpg" }
You can use live content with the related layout (use isLive: true setting) but all items from the related list must be live content.
The following features are not supported with related content:

Easter Week started off with a fun egg hunt with our yellow room (preschool) friends. Our room moms did a great job organizing a fun event with lots to do!
Nicole and Maddie loved their pinwheels!
Kelly & Nicoley
Later in the week we made Resurrection Cookies. Unfortunately, we had two sad cookie encounters. 1) It is near impossible to get good pictures in my kitchen. Oh well. 2) Our cookies didn't rise, didn't hollow out, didn't become empty tombs. But they were still delicious, and since Maddie didn't know the difference, we just cracked them apart and celebrated the fact that death couldn't hold Jesus!
Easter morning Sam actually slept in, so we were waiting and waiting (so it seemed) until the kiddos could find their hidden baskets. Here they are digging into the loot!
While three of us were upstairs getting ready for church, Sam found a rogue cadbury creme egg and dove right in. When I found him, he was surrounded by the tiniest foil pieces imaginable, shoving a half-eaten egg in his mouth, galloping in circles around the living room rug. His face looked thus:
Maddie got herself dressed for church and added the leopard-print headband:
On the front step before church, we snapped some photos:
As long as is possible, I WILL dress my son in cutesy clothes. The day will be here shortly where he will dictate his fashion and until then, I will pick seersucker jackets, bow ties, and button up shirts to my heart's content.
Maddie checking out the stash of goodies from Tutu and Boppa:
Sam took such a long nap, we had about an eight-minute interval in which to find our hidden eggs in the backyard before heading to Easter Dinner at the Eakins'. But eight minutes is more than enough for two eager little kiddos.
We joined the Eakins, plus family and friends totalling 30+, for a delicious Easter Dinner. Sam checked out the pogo stick:
Susan did resurrection eggs with the kiddos:
I ran around snapping photos of the Easter cheer (and sugar highs):
Sam and KK share a moment over an open egg of jelly beans:
Tutu and Maddie, swinging away!
Hoping your family had a blessed Easter week! Praising God for new life, for the work of his Spirit in our sweet Maddie, for baptism week, and for all the love and care he shows us through his people.
The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save!

Quote of the Day: Amy Poehler on Jon Hamm
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Features,
"I was due the next day. So it's my first kid, I'm in a Mad Men outfit, I turn to everybody and I hysterically start crying, and a really pregnant woman crying is terrifying. So, juicy tears just like squirting out of my eyes. And it was like the punch line to a joke, it's like, my doctor just died and I'm due tomorrow. And Jon Hamm, who I am just getting to know, comes over and puts his hands on my shoulder and is like, 'This is a really important show for me. I'm gonna need you to get your s*** together.' And I laughed so hard, I probably peed myself – I believe that going through crying to laughing adds like five years to your life."
- Amy Poehler recounts in her memoir how Jon Hamm helped her get through her first pregnancy on Saturday Night Live.

Lena Dunham to Host 'SNL'
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Announcements, Internet, News,
Lena Dunham will host Saturday Night Live (SNL) for the first time next month.
The Girls creator and star will make her debut on the New York-based comedy-sketch series, which has poked fun at her own hit show several times in the past, on March 8. The 27-year-old actress shared the news, reported by Variety magazine, on Twitter on yesterday writing, "Thank you for the 'SNL' love. Can't wait to debut my character 'girl who googled serial killers all night & has lots to say!'"
Lena previously praised a parody of Girls on the show in September, that featured then-host Tina Fey as an Albanian girl, Blerta, with a rubber hand and "Old Cow Disease," who joined the four young women trying to find their place in the world. She called the sketch "a true honor," and also tweeted, "Very excited about the current line-up of 'SNL' ladies. They are funny like whoa."

Bill Hader Blasts Justin Bieber, Praises Justin Timberlake
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Gossip,
Bill Hader has slammed Justin Bieber's turn as a host on SNL.
The former Saturday Night Live performer was unimpressed when the "Baby" hitmaker hosted an episode of the comedy sketch show because he arrived on set with a huge entourage. "Justin Bieber showed up with like 20 guys. He had a guy holding a slice of pizza. A guy holding a Diet Coke. You're trying to fight through all these people to get dressed," he told Howard Stern on his Sirius XM radio show.
While Bill hated working with Bieber, he praised Justin Timberlake for his down to earth attitude. Speaking about the "Mirrors" singer, he said, "He's great. Also, the guy doesn't show up with anybody. Timberlake, it was just him. He's a real class act, that guy."

Sara Bradshaw, The WITO coordinator for this chapter, does a super job of putting together many fun events for the ladies - and this is one of my favorites!
|From one of the fun ladies waterfowl hunts that Sara (bottom right) organized
While other gals worry about the right pair of shoes for every ensemble when they pack, I make sure I have the right hunting and outdoor apparel. A job made infinitely easier by Prois Hunting and Field Apparel.
If by chance you've been living under a rock and don't know about Prois - they are the premiere manufacturer of women's hunting, field, and shooting apparel. Prois is solely for the ladies. Sorry guys - we know how much you like the quality, the fit, the durability of Prois but it's just for us gals in the gang Prois apparel is made with three thoughts in mind, fit, form and function.
Reversible Sherpa vest and my cuddly soft blaze beanie.
It's that crazy time of year so who knows what the weather will bring. Whatever mother nature throws at me, I'll have it covered thanks to the fine selection of hunting apparel from Prois. I'll certainly be packing my Extreme Coat and pants; they are perfect on cold snowy wet days. Warm, water resistant and of course all the special little features that all Prois garments have.
Prois shirts - they are the perfect piece for a busy outdoor woman! I wrote about what perfect travel partners they make in this post .
Then there's the pants - again it's iffy time of year; one day it may a balmy 60 degrees and inside of an hour it's 30 degrees and sleeting. That means I'll be putting both my Gen X Pants and my Pro Edition Pants in the mix. The Gen X pants are my "wear almost every single day in the cooler/colder months" pants. The cozy fleece lining makes them toasty warm, and the weather proof exterior keeps me dry slogging around the river bottoms. The Pro Edition Pants are my go to pants in the warmer months. Same great fit and form as the Gen X, but a bit lighter weight and truly an all season pant.
If you are an active outdoors woman that spends every available moment afield - Prois is the line for for you! Made to fit the female form, durable, packable, and full of features that make hunting, angling, hiking - any outdoor activity a pleasure Prois meets and exceeds every outdoor woman's needs for quality outdoor and field apparel!

How to treat Cirrhosis?
Cirrhosis of the liver is expressed in normal cells is replaced with connective tissue. This is due to the complications of certain liver pathologies (cholestasis, hepatitis, etc.). The main symptoms of cirrhosis of the liver – it's weight loss, fatigue, itching, jaundice, increase in volume of the stomach and so on. How to treat cirrhosis of the liver? Return to normal cells, unfortunately, impossible. Treatment aims to maintain cirrhosis of the liver and eliminate signs of the disease. Radical method – a liver transplant.
Basic principles and guidelines of the following treatments:
- Elimination of the reasons due to which the disease has developed.
The reasons are varied, and therefore the direction of the treatment is different. This can be a refusal of alcohol (in alcoholic cirrhosis), the treatment of viral hepatitis, the abolition of certain medications (at toxic cirrhosis).
- Establishment of a sparing regime.
Since cirrhosis patients quickly get tired, should limit physical activity. With the progression of the disease is shown to bed: horizontal position enhances the blood supply to the liver and activation of regenerative processes.
- Prescription strict diet.
From clean diet smoked, salted, roasted, alcohol. Limit the amount of protein products.
- Drug therapy.
Assign the following groups of products: activating the metabolism of the liver cells;
stabilizing the hepatocyte membrane;
blood substitutes, preparations of blood components, solutions of electrolytes (appointed in hepatic failure, hemorrhagic syndrome, ascites, electrolyte imbalance);
glucocorticoid hormones (appointed on stage compensated viral cirrhosis and biliary in severe diseases of other species).
Against the intoxication therapy.
Apply enzyme preparations and adsorbents to eliminate constipation and diarrheal disorders.
- A liver transplant.
Curable if cirrhosis of the liver? No. Even the transplant does not guarantee full recovery of all the functions. But the observance of all prescriptions the doctor will stop the degenerative process.
Types of liver cirrhosis
To determine how to treat cirrhosis of the liver, it is necessary to find out its causes and, respectively, a cirrhosis. There are several classifications of disease:
- Depending on the origin:
alcoholic cirrhosis (usually develops in people suffering from alcoholism, treatment of alcoholic cirrhosis begins with a complete rejection of alcohol, only on these conditions may occur a marked improvement);
autoimmune cirrhosis (develops due to a malfunction of the immune system that kills its own liver cells, mistaking them for an alien);
toxic liver cirrhosis (developed as a result of poisoning organism toxic substances and drugs);
cirrhosis, triggered by viral hepatitis;
cirrhosis, triggered by metabolic disorders and diseases of the biliary tract (including congenital);
cardiac cirrhosis (another name – stagnant, is caused by insufficient blood flow to heart disease);
cryptogenic cirrhosis (unclear etiology).
- The morphological factors and clinical signs:
CKD cirrhosis of the liver (the most common form of disease, and its other name – portal cirrhosis of the liver; the main factor of development – compression of the branches of the portal vein connective tissue);
SKD cirrhosis (regeneration units – more than three millimeters in diameter);
mixed form of cirrhosis.
- According to clinical data:
This is not a complete list of classifications. The multiplicity of species is linked with the desire to unite the various specialists and clinical prognostic factors. Combine these classifications is impossible, since one and the same disease can cause a variety of changes; and one and the same variant cirrhosis for various diseases possible.
Diagnosis of liver cirrhosis
What are the symptoms of liver cirrhosis? The clinical picture of the disease is quite diverse. Furthermore, in the initial stages the symptoms may not be. Therefore, for an accurate diagnosis, the following studies:
blood chemistry (in cirrhosis indicates elevated levels of bilirubin and liver enzymes);
biopsy (to diagnose a disease in identifying pockets of sprawl on a small area of the connective tissue of the liver).

Author has written 5 stories for Danny Phantom, and Fire Emblem.
Hey there! Nice to meet all of you! My name is Winter Rose Phantom! I am a new writer here on Fanfiction and I tend to stick to fandoms I am familiar with, of course, that is what most of the writers here do. So Far I have a few Danny Phantom Stories out and obviously I plan on writing more. I have started drawing for my Stories, but I will be also drawing things from other fandoms as well as OCs and just art in general. I do have a deviantart, I have two, actually, but one of them is going to be shut down as soon as I can figure out the password, and all of my art is going to be moved to my new Deviantart. I also have an instagram too! So if you want you should Check me out! :3 I have a Goodreads, if anyone still knows what that is, it's a roleplay/book group website if you're interested.
I'm working on getting pictures of everyone up on DeviantArt right now, currently all I have up is one picture of Danny and a picture of what Skylar looks like.
Deviantart - Winter-Rose-Phantom
Instagram - WinterRosePhantom or if you want to see my cosplay account, ChiBlueRoses
Goodreads - Winter Rose Phantom
Kik - WinteRosePhantom
My Ships! :3
Danny x Sam is my main ship in DP, but I do enjoy Danny x Ember and Danny x Valerie from time to time, some good fics, like The Phantom's Realm (DxE) for example, It's a really good read, I recommend it! There is also a small hint of Danny x Star, but it really depends on the fic and how Star is portrayed. I don't like Paulina, she's a huge, Shallow witch and should be fed to Cujo for all I care.
Tucker x Valerie and Tucker x Jazz are both equal for me, If you didn't see any Tucker x Jazz hints in the show, take a closer look at Frightmare. That one has a bit of Tuck x Jazz undertones. I can see Tucker x Star, but it's not my favorite.
I see Danny and Tucker having a very brotherly relationship. They might get a bit Bromantic, but that's normal for them. They've known each other forever and nothing could tear them apart, after all that they have been through. Sam and Tucker have a brother/sister relationship for me, I don't see them as anything else, and it kind of weirds me out when they are shipped together, but that's just my preference. I won't berate anyone for not having the same ships as me, that's just plain disrespectful and rude.
Of course I like Danny/Dani Father/Daughter, its one of the most adorable things ever. I can also see them as younger sister/older brother or even being Twins for that matter, but I sway more towards Father/Daughter.
I do have a few OCs, meaning that they have Pairings as well. Of course there is Birch Simmons, who, if Danny isn't paired with Sam, usually gets paired with her. Then there is Destiny Child, for now you'll have to guess which Ghost she gets paired with. TimeGate and Ember are together already in my Fic(Slight AU Obviously) and have Skylar as their Daughter.
Clockwork is a father figure for Danny, and a grandfather for Danielle. Clockwork is Danny's mentor and Danny is his youngest Apprentice. TimeGate is the oldest, and Danny and TimeGate will eventually grow as close as brothers.
Of course there are the obligatory Lunch Lady x Box Ghost and Jack x Maddie.
Vlad is creepy, I love him. However I don't pair him with anyone as of yet. Obviously I don't like Danny/Vlad in a Father/Son kind of way, nor do I like it in the BL kind of way. I don't have anything against the people that do, I just don't like it. Personal preferences.
I may or may not have dabbled in Pitch Pearl. I also like Phantom/Fenton in a brother-like relationship, similar to Tucker/Danny.
Currently Working on;
Team Phantom(Name not really set in stone yet)-Takes place before Phantom Planet. Danielle is back in Amity Park and she has a file that could change everything for the better or worse. Valerie and Tucker are Dating. Sam and Danny are coming to terms with their feelings about one another. What happens when you mix this mess with the news from clockwork that could cause a great stir of trouble? Rewrite of We're A Family
To Catch A Ghost 101- Casper High School is adding a new class to the curriculum this Winter. Ghost 101, short for 'To Catch a Ghost 101.' Danny, Sam, Tucker and Valerie don't sign up for the class, but when they find their names on the roster for the new class when they get their schedules they are forced to take it. What are they going to do when they find that Danny's Parents are the ones teaching the class? Be very, very careful, that's what.
Kidnapped- We're A Family Ficlit (No this doesn't take place in the main story) Danielle wants to go patrolling, even though her powers shorted out because she had gotten so violently ill before and Danny won't let her so he brokers a deal with her, saying that he'll meet her at the park later after patrol and they'll play there for a bit. But something happens before he can get to her.
Plan to Work on;
A Field Trip to Where?!- A spin off of 'To Catch a Ghost 101.' Danny, Sam, Tucker and Valerie are enjoying a normal day, when their whole lives shift upside down when they get the news that they're going on a field trip. To the Ghost Zone. How will Team Phantom be able to get out of this without something going horribly wrong? Oh that's right... they won't.
No Longer Working on/Up for adoption:
We're A Family-Takes place before PP. Danielle is on her way back to Amity Park with a file that could change the world for Team Phantom. Valerie got past her grudge against Danny after Saving Danielle and they have been Sparring Partners since. Tuck and Val are dating, Sam and Danny are finally realizing their feelings for each other and Dash is on Danny's side! Rated T because I am Paranoid.

Sankei - Moon Patrol Vehicle X-5
When I found this toy about 2 years agoo in Italy I never realized I had such a scarce toy in hands. I found out only later because I found a second one in dark blue and than realized.... hey I also have one in white.... I compared, and found out the one I found in Italy was not only just white.. its a rare and scarce variation of this allready very hard to find toy...
Build in Japan in the early sixties. Moon Patrol Vehicle is a wonderfull spacetoy that leaves nothing to the imagination.... Its all there... bump&mystery go, light laser gun, rotating turret, astronaut, light, spacesound, tracks, antenna, more antenna and MORE antenna... what a fantastic spacetoy and one of my personal favorites for sure.
Made in at least 2 color variations and this white one looks like it was one of the earlier versions. The darkblue you see always is produced later in much bigger quantities. This one however is a rare and ultra scarce white variation that was only sold in Italy buy the way.
The condition is excellent to near mint. All complete and original with the original springs, red and blue knob, tracks, all is original. The always missing antenna is present as well. The toy is in working condition but the gun and antenna does not always spin and rotate in action. I dont want to open up the toy for this.. would be a pity !.. the new owner can decide to repair this minor flaw.. or not :)
Make no mistake here... you will probably never see this variation ever again. I personally believe its MUCH nicer than the dark blue variation. Complete, all original with original antenna, clean batterycompartment and perfectly working.
Ultra rare and scare SanKei Variation in WHITE !! WOW

Hunter Trailer (2015)
04 August 2015 14 mins
It is nightfall. A hunter lurks in the darkness, wandering further towards the impenetrable. Do the meanings lie in the stream, in the mountains, the stars, or in the death of things? A lyrical and ambiguous existential essay film. Utilising organic metaphors within nature, Scott Barley addresses the past of his own cinematic image; where life, paths, obstacles and destinies intertwine. A film made as a "cleanser", it is the death of the iconography found within his previous films; a film where no things feature, only suggestions.

Wifi and Livability
February 25th, 2011, 4:23 pm
Internet access, once a luxury, is quickly becoming a key livability issue for New York and other cities. With many government agencies providing services online and communities becoming increasingly dependent on high-speed Internet access, it is critical that we integrate access into future city planning initiatives.
Currently, in New York City, free WiFi is predominantly available in consumer/tourist hubs through a patchwork of public and private partnerships. It is through these partnerships that business improvement districts (BIDs) have been able to bring free WiFi to public spaces all around the City. These open space WiFi channels are a step in the right direction, but environmental factors make it an unreliable option for those without consistent access at home—no way to plug in a computer, glare from the sun, and lack of desk space.
Inconvenience aside, as smart phones and internet usage data are increasingly used to determine information from traffic congestion to subway arrival times it is important that urban planners consider the millions of people who are not currently connected. As Julia Ramey Serazio explains in a recent article in "Next American City", reliance on statistical data provided by Internet usage and smartphones for civic participation in planning issues would be remiss, she writes:
"I do worry, however, that government and planners might become too reliant on technology as a tool to inform decisions about a city's future. Relying on citizen input shared through smartphones and even a plain old Internet connection is to implicitly ignore the input of entire neighborhoods without broadband infrastructure. Technology is a wonderful means through which to call attention to a pothole, but will it lead to meaningful investments in infrastructure? Being able to use your smartphone to see whether your bus is late is great—for people with smartphones, who, for the record, aren't usually the people riding buses."
It is important for traditional forms of community engagement to continue, but alone they are not adequate long-term solutions—not for urban planning issues and not for livability. Planners give careful consideration to waterfront and open space access, but frequently overlook Internet access even though it can vastly improve citizen efficiency, as well as city infrastructure. For millions of New Yorkers, formerly burdensome tasks like paying bills, finding a doctor or filing taxes are just a few clicks away. For millions more these tasks remain just as inefficient, moving them further and further away from the consumer mainstream that planners are often eager to engage. Because those without Internet access have to rely on time consuming ways of managing their daily lives: the all-in costs may actually be greater than they would be if Internet access were more available.

Review Of "How To Win College Scholarship Money"
In today's struggling economy, parents of students who are in college or college-bound are frantically searching for a way to help pay for the high cost of tuition, books, room, board and all the expenses that come with having a child in college. Monica Matthews, author of How To Win College Scholarship Money has found a way to give relief and hope to parents and students in this situation. When her own son was in high school, she started to panic at the thought of sending him to college without any funds saved or means of paying for it. Instead of taking out loans, or going back to work full-time, Monica chose to spend her time helping her son search, find, and apply for college scholarships. At the same time, she paid close attention to the writings of scholarship judges and the winners they picked to receive their monetary awards. As a result, she came up with a method of finding and applying for scholarships that transformed her son's scholarship applications and made them immediately stand out to the judges. The result was amazing; her son won over $100,000 in college scholarship money and went to college for free.
In 10 easy steps, Monica outlines the exact process she took, gives you "bottom line" tips along the way, and provides you with "out of the box" tools to help you or your student stand out to the scholarship judges. She addresses all aspects of scholarship applications from essays, to getting great letters of recommendation, transcripts, to the application completion and best method of delivery. Monica has done the leg-work, has proven results, and is now passing on her methods to parents and students who need to win college scholarship money.
The best part about this "How To Win College Scholarship Money" ebook is that is written parent to parent and parent to student. It follows an easy to understand format that makes the scholarship process doable and less intimidating. Parents win when their students win college scholarships, as the amount of college debt decreases as a result of free scholarship money. Students win as they become familiar with the scholarship process and can repeat it until enough money is won to pay for their college tuition. Once those award letters begin filling your mailbox, you will be glad you chose to invest in Monica's scholarship winning ebook.

It's been a devastating week. I've lost an uncle, a friend and now, in a way, Robin as well. All of them to suicide. But I have to add this, and I must say this doesn't always apply, but I don't think any of them thought "the world will be better without me, I'm a burden" I think it was more the inability to cope with pain and anguish anymore. The dark cloud had swallowed them whole instead of just following them raining, it was now over them and there was no other escape. Its so desperate and I think that's what makes it so sad. Another uncle died of cancer a year ago, and I was just devastated, he was a brilliant man, I loved him so much, and that disease, that sickness took him from us. This week, a crippling silent disease took three more men that I adored (and I don't doubt many more). And the taboo that's placed on suicide and depression, especially on men, it's another heartbreak all on its own. Cancer and the like are accepted. But depression, mental illness, suicide - they all have judgements and stigma. I was just arguing with my husband and my brother who have a differently mentality. They don't believe someone who is rich, has a wife and a great life has anything to be depressed about. Not only are people hesitant to say anything about how they feel, they sometimes can't. And they've got this judgment on them already. "Your life is not bad enough for you to be depressed." And so their cloud starts raining on them and if someone doesn't intervene or they don't find that little bit of sunshine and ask for help, it swallows them. And then they are gone. And we are left behind, our world is worse off for losing them. Our lives aren't as rich.
I hope I've not upset anyone. It's been just a horrible week. Three people, from totally different walks of life, are gone. This probably made zero sense, like I said, it's been horrible.

To everyone that has lost someone they love to suicide and those that are themselves or had a loved one fighting the battle with it. Massive big HUGS times a million.
My own experience is just too raw to talk about.

My mother tried to complete suicide and was in hospital for 3 months. The day she was released she came home to find my Father had hung himself. My younger brother tried a few years after my Dad, the same way. I found him...
NO one is immune to depression, the dark cloud will continue to hang over you until you either can no longer see the light, or you speak out for help. It's awful and I'm so frickin' sick of the stigma surrounding it. There's nothing to be ashamed of, whether you're a survivor of suicide or a survivor on the other side dealing with the consequences of a loved one. I wish my dad had realised all he had to do was ask for help, he didn't have to battle his demons alone.
The first few months I was told he died in a car accident. When people asked and that's what I told them the responses were "I'm so sorry, that's awful/tragic and so unfair". When I was told the truth and asked again, I would get "oh... I'm sorry" followed by incredibly awkward silences which made me feel like my father was the worst person in the world. Why? Because he succumbed to an awful disease that he just couldn't keep fighting?! Still to this day I get awkward silences. Until something changes the suicide statistics will continue to rise.

While I agree with you all here, I will say from personal experience I find it selfish for me and my family. My mother took her life when I was young. She suffered severe depression and the loss of a child but she also robbed me of my mother being at my wedding, being there for the birth of her grandchilren and watching them grow up and a husband of his wife. I could never fathom leaving my children behind but to my mother she must have felt she had no other option and no support. To everyone to have lost a loved one many hugs to you all.

I work in a role where we are faced with lives lost to suicide multiple times each day.
It is a problem that needs to be acknowledged but in a respectful way. Unfortunately there is no target group. We see children from 10 up to the elderly who have been 'successful' in ending their own lives.
We are aware of MANY patients who leave mental health facilities after being placed on mental health forms and go on to take their own lives. We are aware of the immediate devastation that occurs to the person who has located the deceased. It is not something that will ever become 'normal' to see/hear.
It is not something we EVER give details to the media about however. The families deserve the respect to grieve in private and advise those that they want to know, how death occured.

It's very hard to understand the mind set of someone who is on the brink of suicide...
You feel absolute desolation .... your heart and mind feel empty...time stops...no matter how much love and compassion you have around you all you can think of is how hard life is in the instant...that nothing will make it better...you resent the people around you who have it better than you...everything is bleak..time just stops in that instant and whatever you have contemplated doing seems the only solution....and some just go for it...
And in that instant if something or someone stops you...you will never do it... but its that sensitive few minutes that matter...

Because it's a national tragedy.
Because it highlights the failures of our mental health system.
I never said I wanted it "splashed" on the news. They never even had to disclose personal details. I just wanted acknowledgement that yet another life was lost to this disease. It just further adds to our shame and embarrassment.
MASSIVE HUGS to everyone here xxxx

God so many heartbreaking stories here. I'm so sorry to everyone :-(
Despite fighting depression for most of my life, I never really 'got' the whole being suicidal thing until I was on the brink myself. I didn't take my own on-the-brinkness seriously at first, until a friend told me strongly that my thoughts and behavior weren't just part of the normal ebb and flow of being alive.
In my case, I simply didn't have the guts to go through with what I thought I wanted to do. That's why I find it hard to understand when people say it's cowardly or gutless.
Thankfully my ideations passed with no real effort on my part. I am so thankful they did, because to live with them day in, day out for your whole life would indeed be hell on Earth.
I think it's so important for people to share stories, and thankyou so much to those who have. It means the world.

Muhammad: A Very Short Introduction Paperback
by Jonathan A. C. Brown
Part of the Very Short Introductions series
As the founder of Islam Muhammad is one of the most influential figures in history.
The furor surrounding the Satanic Verses and the Danish cartoon crisis reminded the world of the tremendous importance of the prophet of Islam, Muhammad. Learning about his life and understanding its importance, however, has always proven difficult. Our knowledge of Muhammad comes from the biography of him written by his followers, but Western historians have questioned the reliability of this story in their quest to uncover the 'historical Muhammad'.
As modern controversies have shown, whatever the truth about Muhammad's life, his persona has taken on numerous shapes and played a crucial role in Muslim life and civilization.
This Very Short Introduction provides an introduction to the major aspects of Muhammad's life and its importance, providing both the Muslim and Western historical perspectives. It also explains the prominent roles that Muhammad's persona has played in the Islamic world, from the medieval to the modern period.
ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly.
Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Review by bell7
In this "Very Short Introduction," author Jonathan A.C. Brown presents in three chapters Muhammad's life as understood by most Muslims, a commentary on historical representations of Muhammad, and the Prophet's influence on Islamic civilization since his death.My library recently received the Muslim Journeys Bookshelf grant, twenty-five titles of both fiction and nonfiction. I am leading five related book discussions, and wanted to make myself more familiar with the basics of Islam, so I chose this book to give me an introduction. Unfortunately, while I'm a bit more familiar with the religious understanding of Muhammad, I'm ultimately more confused. The second chapter was less a historical explanation than it was a rebuttal of various interpretations. I was really hoping for at least an outline of what history is known, but for the most part Brown will mention an historical view and then proceed to explain why it's not an argument against Muhammad - all well and good, but very hard to follow when I don't know what the known history is to start with. The first chapter was useful information, but I think I'll have to follow up with the bibliography to really get the information I was looking for.
Review by cbl_tn
This brief introduction to the life and influence of Muhammad is part of the publisher's Very Short Introduction series. It's intended to be an introduction to Muhammad's life from a Muslim perspective for a non-Muslim audience. The author should have explicitly stated in the book that he is an adherent of Islam. While this could be inferred from his preface, this should be communicated more clearly to readers.The first chapter comprises about half of the book and it summarizes the Sira, a Muslim biography of Muhammad. Chapter three explains the importance of Muhammad to Muslims throughout history. The second chapter is the weakest in the book. Brown addresses questions of historical reliability and briefly mentions the work of some scholars who have questioned the historicity of various accounts of Muhammad's life. Readers should keep in mind that Brown writes from a faith perspective when weighing his assessments of the strengths or weaknesses of the critics' arguments.
