Clinicians and researchers are currently unable to distinguish at diagnosis with sufficient confidence men with indolent prostate cancer (CaP) from those who have aggressive disease. At present, the strongest predictor of lethal CaP is Gleason score. Utilizing gene expression array data, we previously identified a 157 gene mRNA signature that distinguished high from low Gleason score. This signature significantly improved prediction of lethal disease among men with clinically heterogeneous Gleason score 7. The signature may have clinical utility, but before applying it to patients it must be further refined and then tested in biopsy specimens to determine if the predictive accuracy is sufficient to influence treatment decisions at the time of diagnosis. This mRNA study also identified metabolic pathways differentially enriched in high and low grade disease, generating hypotheses for biological mechanisms that may underlie CaP differentiation and clinical progression. Since different types of biological data may add to the mRNA signature as well as provide different biological information, it is worthwhile to further investigate the metabolic pathways identified. We therefore propose to build upon our promising expression profiling findings with the following Specific Aims: 1) Preparation and testing of Gleason signature of lethal disease for clinical use -To determine if the mRNA signature can be applied in the clinic, we will further validate it by testing its predictive accuracy in biopsy specimens at the time of diagnosis. We hypothesize that within Gleason score 7, the signature's ability to predict lethal disease may improve if applied specifically to the grade 3 or grade 4 focus of the tumor 2) Metabolomics bf Gleason grade In tumor as predictor of lethal disease - Our mRNA study identified metabolic pathways (pyrimidine, propanoate, and beta-alanine metabolism) differentially enriched in high and low grade tumors. Our preliminary data suggests these same pathways may be differentially enriched using metabolomic data;we hypothesize that metabolites may themselves be associated with Gleason score and lethal disease. 3) Metabolomics of Gleason grade in serum as biomarker for upgrading - We hypothesize that metabolites in serum associated with Gleason grade may indicate the presence of higher-grade tumor not detected at biopsy and could serve as a biomarker for monitoring disease progression of active surveillance patients.

1983 22.5" Trek 620 - $200
Expand Messages
- Not mine. Pix on link.
Cool bike but I really don't ride it as much as others. Frame/fork are a
1983 Trek 620, paint is still pretty good but shows wear in places.
22.5" center to top (fits like a 56-57cm bike). Overall in pretty decent
shape. No dents or dings. The downtube alignment is off by 2mm (yes,
millimeters--only way you can tell is with a straight edge), but it's
not due to a crash; just brazed that way apparently. This has zero
effect on ridability but may play with your mind.
Wheels in excellent condition (700c Mavic rims, Suzue/Shimano hubs),
Nitto randonneur bars (new Newbaum's cloth tape), new Pasela tires, new
Kool-Stop pads, Salsa chainring, new SRAM chain.

Finding Happiness Withing Yourself.
by Lori English
The pursuit of happiness is a always being examined and people are looking for the answers to make their lives happier. If you question your happiness then maybe its time to make some significant changes in your life. Everyone has a different definition of what happiness looks like to them, however, we all want it.
What Is Happiness
Happiness is a feeling described differently for each person in a significant way that depends on the person and their wants and needs.
The definition of happiness is described by psychologists as the day to day moods that impact our feelings of well-being. There are so many ways to describe happiness that it is asked to "feel " it instead of described.
We all want happiness, but searching for it is specific and different for each person. Finding your specific definition of happiness is searching for it and giving it time.
Knowing what you what is important in achieving happiness and for some this is difficult. An easy way to find what you want is to know what you don't want. Writing a list of what you want and don't want is helpful.
The Psychology of Happiness
Individuals look for ways to hold on to the moment or a time that brought them a feeling of happiness. It was so much easier , many people reflect on times when they were happier in the past.
Happiness is a subjective feeling and it can flow differently from one day to another. If you have a bad day at work, that does not impact your whole concept of happiness, this is one day.
The pursuit of happiness is a never ending flow of feelings and a journey that you are on that is called life. Having gratitude for small things in your life can impact you feel. You hear smell the roses well its very important to take time to make
What Makes You Happy?
The way you feel happiness is significant, but its up to you to explore what makes you happy. It's not something outside of yourself that makes you happy. Let me give you a few beginning starters to help.
1. Do something small everyday for yourself. Treat yourself to a walk, meditate, or buy yourself a book that you wanted.
2. Learn to say no to others. Saying no allows you to have boundaries, and this makes your relationships a lot healthier.
3. Make time with a friend have a heart to heart conversation.
4. Keep a copy of your favorite prayer or quote and recite it.
5. Go outside and take a walk in nature. Take a long hike.
6. Write in your journal about your thought and how you are feeling.
7. Volunteer is a good way to become social and do something you enjoy.
Research and Happiness
Finding Happiness according to Sonya Lyubomirsky, P.H.D, a Psychology professor wrote the book " The How Of Happiness", and demystifies in her book research, and many unnecessary complications in being happy. Luubomirsky explains happiness in two components of happiness.
How Can You Discover Happiness?
Discovering happiness is a little misleading because most of us know what it feels like to have moments of happiness but how can we contain the feelings of joy, contentment, and positive.
Let's take a look some people think that materialistic will make them happy.
It's nice to have things such as a car, house, and electronics.
Happiness does not come from material items items ,and but it comes from how you feel about yourself, self esteem, values, passion, gratitude, loving others.
Learned Helplessness
Learned helpless is one of the main principles of behavior therapy and used to describe when you are depending on others to do for you what you don't feel you can do.
This is learned helpless and is described in many ways that do not help others with being responsible for themselves. Learning to be independent is important for your overall happiness and self -esteem.
If you are depending on others for your happiness you will be disappointed, and it will not last a long time. Searching inside yourself and achieving your goals will help you feel content.
How to Stay Happy
Overall, happiness is a feeling that is going to come and go according to life's circumstances. You have the ability to make your life happier by what choices you make and how you handle the reactions to stress and emotions.
If you want to find happiness do the things that can make you happy. Write a list and make your happiness goals . These goals are specific, there are ways to find happiness, but you have to be willing to make choices and encounter some mistakes.
The best feeling of overall happiness is feeling of being loved, family, helping others, and doing something random for other people. The path of finding happiness is different , however, if you search inside yourself deep you can find what truly makes you happy.

This is is purely a personal experience but I found that when I had a problem with a HP printer that their customer service was one of the worst I have ever come across. So much so that it was simpler to replace the printer and buy another brand. Unfortunately I have no experience of Lenovo.
Not much help in your dilemma I know but in my case customer service is very important and my experience does not seem to be unusual. Not good.

I wonder if anyone can help, I have tried googling this many times and still have had no success.
I have an old Dell Latitude LM P133 with a 1626 Mb hard drive and 40Mb RAM. This model has a swappable 3.5" floppy or CD-rom but will only boot from HDD or Floppy, USB is not supported.
I have been playing with Puppy on my main computer as a CD boot and would like to install Puppy on the DELL, I understand that this would be a suitable system.
I can remove the hard drive and connect it to a pc running xp via USB cable (This pc also has UBUNTU on it (dual boot and fairly recent install of which I have very little experience!)
So far I have I have copied the ISO file to the hard drive (FAT 32 format) but it won't boot directly, I have tried installing GRUB but to be honest am not really sure what I am doing. I have also tried the wakepuppy floppy and copied the IDEHD file to the hard drive but still no luck, I am getting 'pnpbios fault' messages.
Is there a real step by step guide for a complete linux newbie available on the internet or can anyone help.
If necessary I can reformat the drive and start from clean if you prefer
many thanks

The Sea's Rich Bounty is Shrinking
August 1, 2003
Overfishing is threatening a number of marine species with extinction, and behind this phenomenon are steady advances in technology, national subsidies to fishing fleets and high demand for seafood among consumers, say William J. Broad and Andrew C. Revkin.
Today, more than 23,000 large fishing vessels and millions of small ones are trawling for seafood in new, deeper waters, but stocks of many fishes are decreasing while demand for fish keeps climbing:
- In 2000, the American Fisheries Society reported that 22 species of fish had almost vanished.
- Cod have almost completely vanished off eastern Canada.
- Nearly a billion people now rely primarily on fish for protein.
- Countries can use fishing subsidies to buy out boats and retrain their crews so that fishing is reduced without cutting too many jobs.
- Harvest limits can be set, with quotas allotted to individuals in fisheries who can then trade them; allowing people to buy and sell their fishing rights encourages some to leave the fishing industry, say conservative and environmental groups.
- Creating reserves and nurseries where fisherman can't fish is another option; reserves in New England led to record levels of scallops and other fish species.
Overall, fish can be extremely resilient as long as their natural surroundings are not degraded too badly, but more long-term solutions are needed to ensure that marine life is protected, explain Broad and Revkin.

LeBron and the Cavs went into the American Airlines Arena in Miami, FL and took care of business last night, beating the Heat 107-100 [LeBron beat Wade 42-41].
Like always when LeBron and Wade get together, they put on a great show for everybody and the game was close. These guys are amazing to watch if for nothing else than their competitiveness.
I'm not sure how I feel about their friendship. In some ways it's all, "How cute, they're buddies!" But in other ways, you sort of [I sort of] wish that they were mortal enemies who went home and cried if they lost to each other [not literal crying of course, that violates rule #1].
All that to say, when will science become advanced enough that LeBron and Wade can have a super basketball baby? Maybe we could call up the "octo-mom" and see if she could help us out or something. We're looking for the next Jordan [aka the Messiah of basketball] and if LeBron isn't him, the only thing left to do is to create a genetically enhanced basketball prodigy.
I have D-Wade on my fantasy team this year because I saw him in the Olympics and knew how pissed he was following the terrible season the Heat had last year. I'm not even sure what makes Wade so good. With LeBron, the fact that he's the biggest guy on the court 90% of the time AND the fastest guy on the court, well, that sorta gives you the heads up that he's about to take your cookie and eat it too. But with Wade, it's like he just does whatever he needs to do to win. A shape-shifter if you will.
You can go ahead and refer to this as my sci-fi post of the week. I realize that I've brought up eugenics and shape-shifting. I'm a little ashamed.
Another quick note:
Shaq is killing right now. I don't understand it. It's like one of those movies where the hero gets mortally wounded but finds this "inner strength" that makes him do some crazy tough stuff; and then he dies at the end.
Hopefully Shaq doesn't die at the end, but, if we're looking at past cinema precedence, the future looks bleak.
0 Responses to 'Bron-Bron vs. D-Wade
stephen c. berry says:
a year from now, will anyone really care about a regular season game between Miami and Cleveland? I mean, they put on a show, but that what the NBA seems like now. I can't wait for the playoffs, when the great players on good teams go off like this every night!
and forget about a super basketball baby! we can enjoy these superstars now while we can! on that same subject, i'm tired of the comparisons to Jordan, whether it's Kobe or LeBron. There will NEVER be another Michael, and there will NEVER be another Kobe or LeBron. Can't we just enjoy what they are now?
Bigs says:
I think it's always interesting to watch superstars matchup (for instance, Howard v. Shaq last night), and in my opinion it is even more special to see them be this competitive during the season when it doesn't matter 'cause it shows their true competitiveness.
Forget about a super basketball baby? You're telling me this is impossible? Dare to DREAM! That's what I always say.
I think you make a good point though about how there will never be another Kobe or LeBron.
Is there room on the NBA Mt. Rushmore for all three though?
D.L. says:
what makes d-wade so good? as a former Miami resident and die-hard Heat fan who has seen wade in live action i must say that his skills on the court are comparable if not better than LeBron's.
I know i just made an argument against myself by admitting where my loyalties lie but let's be honest, the only reason why Wade doesn't get LeBron-like attention and hype is because he isn't the biggest guy on the court. Wade is definitely just as fast, he has amazing court visiion (as his back to back 16 dime games attest) and rebounds well for a 2-guard. James is expected to rebound as a part of the front court while Wade isn't but does anyways.
Also, he has killer instinct (LeBron does too but didn't develop it til that series v. Detroit that propelled the Cavs to the finals). I mean Wade won the 06 'chip by himself, regardless of the refs or whatever Marc Stein will say on ESPN. He puts games away. 24 fourth quarter points v. Knicks in a comeback win, anyone?
Kobe and Bron Bron are the two players everyone talks about, but Wade needs to be in that conversation as well.
Bigs says:
I think Wade has unbelievable skills, just like Kobe and LeBron.
The only difference is basically what you said, LeBron is the biggest guy on the court. He's a freak. Bones and I were talking about that yesterday, how he has the perfect basketball body (gay or not gay?).
That's what makes him the most unique player (could be hyperbole) in the history of the league. It's really just not fair.
I think Wade is sick and he's been ridiculous this year. He was ridiculous in the olympics. And if he can stay healthy for another 5-10 years, he'll have a great legacy. His injuries worry me though.

IF THE forecasters are on the right track, then Ipswich is headed for its coldest October day in almost 30 years.
If you haven't yet noticed the cooler than average start to spring in the city then you probably will on Sunday and Monday, when the arrival of strong southerly winds and thick cloud will see the mercury plummet.
The Bureau of Meteorology has forecast a maximum of 20 degrees for Sunday and only 19 for Monday.
If it does only get to 19 on Monday, it will be the coolest October maximum temperature recorded at Amberley weather station since October 14, 1987, when a top of 18.2 was registered.
Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Nicholas Shera says the drastic drop in temperatures is due to the arrival of a cold weather system from down south.
"It is going to be pretty cloudy - that's the first reason - and there is some cooler air coming up late Saturday," Mr Shera said.
"Saturday is going to be quite warm due to the north-westerly winds, so it is going to be quite a dramatic drop in temperature."
Following some speculation about La Nina earlier in the year, Mr Shera says the region is now looking at more neutral conditions through spring and summer, although the Bureau is still on what they refer to as "Lan Nina watch".
The forecast maximum of 19 on Monday will be nine degrees below the October average.
The record low for October in Ipswich is 15, recorded in 1959. Although it will be cool, the Bureau doesn't believe we'll be a shot at breaking the record at this stage.
For those who aren't fans of the unseasonable cool, there is good news on the horizon.
The return of northerly winds will result in a gradual return to more normal temperatures, starting with a top of 25 degrees next Tuesday and 28 on Wednesday.
Showers are forecast every day from Thursday through to next Tuesday, although the best chance of any meaningful rain is Sunday, when the Bureau says Ipswich could see up to 25mm.

Oatmeal-Maple Syrup Baked Apples
Serves 4,
4 medium apples
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Pinch ground cloves
1 tablespoon butter, divided in four
3/4 cup hot water
Preheat oven to 190°C with a rack in the lower-middle position.
Core your apples, cutting to within a half-inch of the bottom of the apple and creating a well about ¾ inch wide. You can do this with an apple corer, melon baller or spoon.
Mix the maple syrup, oatmeal, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and any extras in a bowl. Divide this mixture between the apples and fill them with the mixture.
Arrange the apples in a baking dish, and top each one with a little butter. Pour the water into the bottom of the dish and cover loosely with aluminium foil.
Bake for 20 minutes and remove foil. Continue baking uncovered until the apples are soft, an additional 20 to 30 minutes. You can test the apples by poking a paring knife through the oatmeal mixture and into the interior of the apple; it should slide into the apple easily with no resistance. The skin on the apples will also become wrinkled and soft by the end of cooking.
Serve with some natural yogurt and drizzle a little maple syrup if you choose before "smashing" them!

Haven't read 123 magic, but from what the girls have talked about it, it sounds like we something quite similar, but I give them to 5 (don't ask me why I go to 5, but it started with DD1 and so here we are).
I also agree that consistency is important. They know if they are throwing a temper tantrum, they have to go to their room until they've been able to vent enough and are comfortable to come back to us controlled and able to listen or reason.

I absolutely love spring time in Richmond. As a photo enthusiast, Saturday mornings in Richmond are a dream come true for street photographers. Last Saturday, Aria and I took Cameron to the VMFA to enjoy the beautiful weather. Leaving the VMFA the photo above was the scene we saw. Though I didn't capture it the exact way I wanted, Aria told me not to get too close to the wedding party or as she put it, "don't creep out their special moment." The scene does provoke a lot of thought for me, in particular, how should I explain scenes like this to Cameron in a few years. I love the idea of a wedding indicating a new beginning, a fresh start for a couple starting their new life together. Meanwhile, as this couple, and their families, celebrates a new beginning, another group, The Virginia Flaggers, hold onto the past. In my opinion, the racial make-up of the wedding party makes the image more powerful. Had the wedding party been all white, I don't think it would carry as much punch. What is missing from this image is the joy on the face of the wedding party, especially the children. Well, joy mixed with the logistical challenge of wedding photos. Also not captured is the number of people who either walked or jogged by on Boulevard, not even paying attention to this scene. I think Richmond has numbed most people to scenes like this…I can't say that is a good thing.
What does this image make you think about? (Please be respectful in your comments – this is not the site for hate of any kind)

When it comes to sheer vibrance of colour the birdlife to be found in the rainforests is almost untouchable. With a well developed tourist infrastructure Costa Rica represents one of the best places in Central America to photograph it too and this trip will take us to some of the very places to do so. Our three lodges based in the central part of the country are situated in prime rainforest and their array of feeders attract a huge variety of hummingbirds and we will concentrate on achieving both natural lighting and high speed flash images of these delicate beauties as well as searching for the iconic Resplendent Quetzal. Further north we will have several days working from bespoke canopy and ground level hides with unique glass fronts for amazing viewing and photography of toucans, parrots, tanagers and an array of other striking bird species in their amazing rainforest settings; the highly colourful King Vulture is another real possibility here too and we will also look to turn our high-speed flash photography experiences to bats during the hours of darkness! With small mammals, insects and reptiles around us throughout the trip adding an array of macro opportunities as well this is an ideal opportunity for a real portfolio of rainforest subjects in a jam-packed two weeks.
Itinerary Open +Close -
Day 1: A long day of travelling to San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica. We will undoubtedly be arriving late in the evening so we will transfer to a local hotel to get some well-earned rest.
Day 2: After breakfast in the morning we will head east for a 2-3 hour drive to one of the country's premier birding lodges. With over 400 different species having been recorded here its excellent reputation is well deserved. The balcony areas around the lodge are home to an array of hummingbird feeders which attract many different species and this is where we will be focussing our photography on the first afternoon after we arrive and settle in – we are based here for 3 nights.
Day 3: We will be hoping to undertake a lot of our photography here using natural light. However, we are also planning to create a high speed flash set up to look to freeze these dynamic little birds as they hover. Among the many species we aim to work with in both these ways are Violet-crowned Woodnymph, Brown Violet-ear and Green-crowned Brilliant – and these are birds that really live up to their dramatic names! Although the hummingbirds will be our main focus for these two very full days of photography here the paths around the lodge and surrounding rainforest also offers the potential for frog, butterfly, insect and floral photography too as we look to build up a rainforest portfolio.
Day 4: After a final early session on the balconies we will return to our vehicles and a 3 hour drive to our new cloud forest base which again has an array of feeders in the surrounding areas for us to work at (and over 140 bird species record here too) as well as the potential of resplendent quetzal in the area.
Day 5: The quetzal will be our main focus while we are here and this morning we will have our own guided walk into the cloud forest to look for them: these incredibly rare birds are among Costa Rica's avian jewels and the researchers in this small region are the best at finding them for us. The rest of the day will be spent in the garden and surrounding forest areas with bird, plant, insect and reptile photography all options.
Day 6: After a further morning's guided walk to look for quetzals we will head for a 3-4 hour drive taking us back north of San Jose and our base for the next 3 nights in the high altitude cloud forest mountains there.
Days 7 – 8: Situated in a stunning montane rainforest location this Eco-Lodge offers the chance to further explore the rainforest on foot for an array of subjects, with orchids high on the agenda. It's the birds though, and especially the hummingbirds such as the Violet sabre Wing and Magnificent Hummingbird that are the main attraction for us. Many feeders are present again providing the main focus for our photography as we work on building our portfolios in terms of both species and also image styles. We will once again look to use a mixture of flash setups and natural lighting.
Day 9: After a last look at the feeders we will head north to our base for the next four nights close to the Nicaraguan border where an array of hides and open air photography opportunities await. It will be a 4 hour or so drive to get there so we'll be grateful to settle in for an evening meal and make our choices for the next few days although if there are toucans to greet us on arrival the cameras will almost certainly get an immediate airing too.
Days 10 – 12: Over the course of our 3 full days here we will have the opportunity to work in a number of different settings created specifically for photography. Tower hides set in the canopy utilise the glass-fronted style pioneered in central Europe to great effect and allow superb opportunities for an array of colourful species including Keel-billed Toucan, Brown- hooded Parrot, and Baltimore Oriole. A Vulture focussed hide attracts not just Black and Turkey Vultures but also the stunning King Vulture. There are further hides in the gardens around the lodge as well as banana feeders adjacent to the balcony which is frequented by toucans, tanagers, parrots, oropendola and aracari amongst others. Mammals. Reptiles and amphibians await in the surrounding rainforest if you can find a spare moment too, and our nights will be spent using high-speed flash for bat photography in the rainforest as well: it'll be a busy few days to end the trip.
Day 13: After a final morning session on the balcony areas we'll begin the 4 – 5 hour drive back to San Jose in time for our early evening flights back to the UK/Europe.
Day 14: Arrive back in Europe in the morning.

Patio Door Latch
A home owner from CT says:
January 22, 2015
The attached photos show the entire patio door part that is missing a hook that looks like part no. 82-204 (door hook). The little spring that holds the hook is rusty and I think that's why the hook disconnected from the spring and fell down into the door. Would it be better at this point to get a new latch or should I get a new hook and just replace that part? If I get a whole new latch do I need the part that fits on the stationery frame and will it fit in the holes that are already there? The measurement of the hole centers is 6-1/2" and the entire length of the latch is 7" so I think 82-001 is the proper part. I also sent an image of the part that the door hook goes into (is that the "keeper"?) I don't care about the lock on the outside - when we moved into the house we didn't even get a key for that door (even though there is an outside slot for a lock) so we don't use it as a main entrance - I'm just interested in locking the door at night. If you need any more information, just let me know. I'm not sure what to call the parts so hope this isn't too confusing. Thanks for your help.

To ask how the frick I am pregnant?(125 Posts)
I had a copper coil fitted in 2012 after Ds2 was born. Has worked well for us until I smelled a rat this week and my worst fears were confirmed when I found out I was pregnant
I am so annoyed at having to go through this and an inevitable termination - I would have so loved three in an ideal world but DH and I know that the financial and emotional burden would be too overwhelming, so as far as that's concerned, the decision has been made.
Has anyone else experienced or been through this?
Oh and there are so many POAS threads that are in chat and AIBU I fail to see the difference for people TTC in those threads and this for upsetting wise.
I have no idea why people open up threads they know will hurt and offend them.
The copper coil has a failure rate of 0.8%, obviously small as a percentage but considering that thousands of women are using it then you have to accept there is a chance you'd get pg on it. The hormonal IUD has a smaller failure rate of 0.2% within the first year of use, so a better option. Male sterilization has a failure rate of 0.15% in the first year of typical use yet the implant has a smaller failure rate of 0.05% so that would be my option if getting pg was going to be an absolute disaster.
I don't think the OP was being flippant. I read it as someone who is understandably angry and upset at being put in the position she is in especially as she has taken responsibility for contraception.
OP I can't offer any advice not already given but take care of yourself, be kind to yourself and do what is right for you.
I have to say when I read ops post I too thought her comment was a bit flippant.
when my husband and I decided we couldnt afford/want anymore children we decided he would get sterilised.
mabe its time to think of something more permanent as no contraception is 100% and another pregnancy would also end in a termination.
OP, I can't offer any advice but I just wanted to say that I am currently mid miscarriage after getting pg following fertility treatment and 2 years of trying. I'm not offended by your post. Both situations suck. I hope you will be ok.
Margot-your comment about a termination slaying a newborn cuddly baby is disgusting.
if a termination isnt had thats exactly what it will be.
Gulp. I have the mirena, and even though I know nothing is 100 % effective, I would be horrified if I got pregnant. I'm getting chills thinking about it. I have two kids and I love them with all my heart, body and soul, but a baby now would mean we'd probably lose our home. Not exaggerating. It would have a huge effect on our finances and there's no wiggle room there at all right now...
I got pregnant whilst on the pill (DS - I had DV... Never thought...) and with a condom (Dd - god knows how that one happened. Due to work travel, we only had sex the once that month, that's how I knew it was a failed condom). Oh god. I don't know now how i thought I was so safe on the coil. This thread has really got me thinking.
I really feel for you. Obviously you know your situation. I would have to have a termination too. And really, how often are decisions like that taken lightly? I had a termination many years ago and don't regret it at all. It was the right thing to do at the time. I've been judged by friends since and it always pisses me off that they assume I made the decision without a second thought.
Get yourself checked out ASAP.
scurries off to find a chastity belt and maybe some kid of drug for DH to render him incapable of shagging
OP you have the right to do what ever you feel is the best for you and your family. Women have the right to abortion whatever some people think. They have the right to their opinion and also the right and freedom to never abort their child but I don't think any woman should be made to feel they are wrong in their choice.
I don't agree with abortion FOR MYSELF however that's my choice for my life. I'm very much pro choice.
I don't expect anyone to tell me what I should do or what my choices in life should be and I wouldn't dream of doing that to someone else.
I wish you all the best OP.
Sort-sterilisation isn't 100% safe either.
Actually,I take that back, I'm not sure about sterilisation,I was speaking of vasectomy. Crossed wires!
After a quick google, it seems it's not.
The OP was about the coil failure and the mention of termination just established that it was a decision already made and not the point of the discussion. There is nothing illegal or immoral about it and people having one do not need to hide away from other people in special areas.
I think people are confusing pragmatic with flippant. Just because she doesn't want to air her emotions on here doesn't mean the decision wasn't incredibly difficult for her.
I am childless, I had a termination 2 years ago following a contraceptive failure. There was never any question of having the baby. I was back at work the following day and now I barely ever think about it. I realise it is different for the op as she mentioned wanting three children but some people are good at compartmentalising situations and emotions and shouldn't be judged for it.
Op, I am sorry this has happened to you, you appear to be dealing with it as well as you can. The best of luck for the future.
Christ I loathe the self centred idiots who pull the whole "how dare you talk about abortion when others can't conceive" bullshit. Yes, it's shit not being able to conceive, it is also shit being pregnant when it isn't wanted, and it's shit being pregnant when it's wanted but not possible. Hate this stupid competition to see who has it worse. As for the whole "it might upset people", loads of things upset people. Funnily enough I'm a bit upset when I read of people being able to bring their babies home, or when I read of people having pleasant pregnancies and non-traumatic births, but I'm not self important enough to think it's someone else's problem. It's mine and mine alone. I know I can't go through life never seeing things that trigger me, so I just have to learn to walk away when things do. In an ideal world I'd never see those things in the first place, but it's not an ideal world and I can't expect others to candy coat it for me.
OP hope you are ok, it can't be easy for you at the moment. I haven't been through it, but can understand your position. I also know that if I were to get pregnant again it would be an "inevitable termination", and with two contraception failures already I am aware that I could end up in the same situation as you. So have a little idea how you are probably feeling. Look after yourself.
Hi everyone,
We're going to move this to Antenatal tests/choices at the request of the OP.
MNHQ can you also clean up the thread a bit so the OP can get some support, not this awful arguing that really will not help her at all?
arachna I am sorry to hear you've found yoruself in this horrible position. I hope you are ok and that you and your husband can be there for each other during this time. I know that under no circumstances could we cope with a third and are currently looking into options, we would be forced into the same decision.
Meerka, there have been no personal attacks, so I'd be shocked if any posts were deleted. The OP posted in AIBU and got a discussion.
She clearly stated that she knew she would upset people- for this reason, think she 'got off lightly' for want of a better phrase.
Had she posted in this section in the first place I'm sure she'd have had nothing but support.
She has hardly 'got off lightly'
back at you! <sticks out tongue>
Can you point out any personal attacks to me? Because I've seen a few people saying she's being too flippant, a few who disagree with abortion and some who were just annoyed by her assertion that she knew people may be upset but didn't care.
This has been swapped over to a topic where hopefully the OP can get some help. So stop bickering unless you have anything useful to add.
Fair point. Apologies to all, especially the OP. I hope things get better for you.
Just because some people are suffering one thing, doesn't mean someone suffering another has any less right to post it. We all have our own issues and this lady has clearly had a shock, she's upset, I think the last thing anyone on here would like is for someone to come onto a thread about your issues and tell you other people are worse off and you shouldn't say XYZ.
I hope you are okay OP.
Sortyourmakeupout "Margot-your comment about a termination slaying a newborn cuddly baby is disgusting.
if a termination isnt had thats exactly what it will be."
Well, yes. Obviously. I don't really see your point.
The OP doesn't feel able to continue with the pregnancy. Abortion is legally available in this country. That's the top and bottom of it.
What advice does she need?
Whatever people want to post, perhaps some reassurance, hand holding,...
But not for her thread to be turned into a fight about where she can & can't post!!
Oh and there are so many POAS threads that are in chat and AIBU I fail to see the difference for people TTC in those threads and this for upsetting wise.
Agreed. If you are frequenting a parenting site, you have to deal with that fact that there will be people talking about babies/TTCing/Miscarriage & terminations.
It is a fact of life that not all conceived babies are wanted. MN is a good place to get support, and those who find it upsetting perhaps need to be careful which threads they open/what boards they choose to go on.

Mysterious Mountain Man Stirs Fear In Utah
February 17, 2012 by staff
Mysterious Mountain Man Stirs Fear In Utah, Mountain man scares owners of remote Utah cabins: He's eluded authorities for more than five years, a mountain man who roams the wilderness of southern Utah, breaking into remote cabins in winter, living in luxury off hot food, alcohol and coffee before stealing provisions and vanishing into the woods.
Investigators have clawed for clues, scouring cabins for fingerprints that match no one and chasing reports of brief encounters only to come up short, always a step behind the mysterious recluse.
They've found abandoned camps, dozens of guns, high-end outdoor gear stolen from the homes and trash strewn around the forest floor.
But the man authorities say is armed and dangerous and responsible for more than two dozen burglaries has continued to outrun the law across a swath of mountains not far from Zion National Park. He's roamed across 1,000 square miles of rugged wilderness where snow can pile 10 feet deep in winter.
And while there have been no violent confrontations, detectives say he's a time bomb. Lately he has been leaving the cabins in disarray and riddled with bullets after defacing religious icons, and a recent note left behind in one cabin warned, "Get off my mountain."
"You wouldn't want to come across that guy," said Iron County Det. Jody Edwards, who has been working the case since 2007.

TransWorld SKATEboarding
Volume 21 Number 8

Sticker Toss
by Kevin Wilkins
Elections happen a lot here.
Even now, as I push these PVC keys, there's a kind of humming and whirring in my city that's got people's panties in a collective bunch.
For a lifetime of Tuesdays, our townsfolk have been expressing their worry–an unflappable, agonizing style of worry–that once the wrong candidate is elected, once the wrong legislative bill is passed, or once the wrong tax is overridden, a giant sinkhole will engulf the area, knocking down homes, browning manicured lawns, sending children flying headlong into the wrong schools, and possibly summoning Enron's former board of directors to happily oversee the rebuilding process. Drama abounds.
Maybe the drama is what makes it seem like elections happen a lot here. Dramatic fallout has an extremely long half-life.
Anywho, on election day, and even sometimes after election day, the voters in these parts–and parts all across this great nation of ours–put on their proudest faces, relieved that wrongs have been righted, and then happily adhere to the gluey-backed claim that they have indeed played a role in the democratic process.
"I Voted Today," their stickers tell us.
Good for you.
Now, while I understand the voting-awareness rhetoric, through the eyes of a skateboarder it's always seemed relatively silly. I assume this is because shouting from the rooftops about what we've done–skateboarding or not–does not come very easily to skaters. There are exceptions to this made-up rule, but it's also similar to the logic skateboarders call on when resisting our own sprawling growth–from yesterday's backyard beginnings and cable access to today's booming mall shops and ESPN. And it's made us become skeptical to the point that when we see a skate logo on a shirt we more than likely look down to the same owner's shoes surveying for flick holes.
But maybe we're wrong.
Perhaps there should be a grassroots campaign to promote skater turnout. It does kind of seem like the sessions are smaller lately. And didn't a couple buddies of yours just announce that they'd officially "quit" skating–declaring their retirement from the waxed hood of their Civic or while holding hands with the opposite sex? And when you see a kid tugging an aluminum scooter around by its silly handle, or black-booted in-liners smooshing 60-durometer wheels under the soles of their feet, doesn't it make you want to ask them, "Why don't you just get a skateboard?"
Come to think of it, a simple round sticker on our nonexistent lapels could aid our cause a bit. It'd help remind the public that we are doing something every day to support our vocation–deliberately forwarding our interests by practicing what we preach–and in doing so, we're turning on new skaters and reminding old ones of the progressive positivity that can only be experienced through skateboarding early and skateboarding often.
More skating means more skaters. More skaters means more awareness.
I like it.
By apolitically stating to the world, "I Skated Today," you can remind your fellow citizens that there are other things going on besides partisan bickering and finger-pointing, and it's possible that they may just loosen up a bit and enjoy the good things happening around them instead of worrying about the bad things that haven't yet, and may never, ever come to pass.
Like I said, elections happen a lot, but skating happens a lot more.
We should celebrate it.

Eric Shamus, PhD, PT, CSCS is an Assistant Professor of Physical Therapy and Track Coordinator of the Masters of Medical Science Sports Medicine Program in the College of Allied Health at Nova Southeastern University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. He is also an Assistant Professor of Osteopathic Medicine at Nova Southeastern.
Debra F. Stern, DBA, PT is an Assistant Professor of Physical Therapy, College of Allied Health at Nova Southeastern University.
Reviewer:Barbara Jean Billek-Sawhney, PT, EdD, MS, GCS(Slippery Rock University)
Description:This book addresses much more than the what, how and why to document.
Purpose:Based on the title of this book, I thought it would focus on the how of documentation, but it covers much more than documentation and health information management. Topics such as legal issues, utilization review, coding, and the minimum data set are also covered.
Audience:The audience for this book is entry-level clinicians, although I think it would be an asset for entry-level and advanced physical therapy administration courses. It may also serve as a valuable resource for clinicians who change practice settings. The authors and contributors appear to have strong credentials.
Features:The information is presented in 12 chapters and nine appendixes. The foundation for the book is laid in the first, introductory chapter in which the purpose and general rules for health information management, i.e., medical recordkeeping are addressed. Approximately 100 pages of valuable information is provided in the appendixes with note writing and goal writing exercises, samples of notes, ICD-9 codes, various forms for reimbursement, and the APTA Guidelines for PT documentation.
Assessment:This is a valuable book that extends far beyond its title. It is easy to read and understand with nice formatting in the chapters. Each chapter ends with questions related to the material presented. The book would benefit from answers to the end of chapter questions and actual scenarios or examples of how the content is applied in physical therapy practice. This valuable resource will be valued by many readers from entry-level clinicians to experienced practitioners.

MORAGA –"The Artist Revealed: Artist Portraits and Self-Portraits," a new exhibit open through Dec. 15 at Saint Mary's College's Museum of Art, proves some people are just terrific at packing.
Tucked into four cubbyhole galleries in the labyrinthine space, an enviable collection of talent and techniques manages to both fit and exceed the room allotted.
The exhibit includes a brilliant assortment of portraits and self-portraits on loan from the Syracuse University Art Collection, sublimely misty paintings by landscape artist William Keith, and works expressing the vivid, eclectic interests of two photographers, Judy Dater and Malcolm Lubliner.
Spanning over 150 years of history-making big wigs, buffoons and beautiful
people, the portraits and self-portraits appear in media as varied as their subjects. Photos, paintings, sculptures and captivating works on paper provide idiosyncratic glimpses: there's Chuck Close's "Alex" (1992), the first painting created after a spinal blood clot left Close a quadriplegic; the skin of Mark Boyle's body, mapped in "Random Self Portrait, Cytogram;" the easy familiarity of Norman Rockwell's "Triple Self Portrait;" and the wild, raw energy of Coulton Waugh's knife-wielding self portrait.
Visitors may appreciate the exhibit's attention to female photographers Barbara Morgan and Berenice Abbot, whose bold images startle or amuse — and consistently impress.
A handful of atmospheric paintings by Keith, from the permanent collection and a few from private collections on display for the first time, grace a third gallery with silvery clouds, grand vistas and the particular charms of Muir Ranch and other recognizable California landscapes.
Turning the corner to enter Lubliner's urban landscapes involves a leap in time (from Keith's 1880s to the 1970s and 2000s) and a geographical shift from rural California to the inner-city streets of Los Angeles.
"Cars are vain and enjoy being photographed," Lubliner's exhibit notes proclaim. From the walls of the narrow, newly-added gallery, seductive, mysterious "models" demand admiration, if not outright adoration — not of the cars, but of Lubliner.
It's rare when a photographer's instincts can upstage the elegance of a 1937 Airflow or the edgy groove of an Eldorado, Or elevate the grit of a 1916 Chalmers with shadowy textures a viewer can feel as much as see. Or unleash a fluid color sense to emblazon a red Rambler in one's permanent memory and turn a '66 Dodge van into a desirable destination.
Shot with a 35 mm digital SLR camera (he now uses a Nikon D700), Lubliner had switched from painting to photography, a move he calls "excellent for career and historic reasons" in a response to an inquiring email. He chronicled LA's art scene during the '60s and 70s: the J. Paul Getty Museum recently purchased his archive from that period.
Working in both black-and-white and color, Lubliner is masterful with shadow,
which often, ironically, reveal his obvious sense of humor. In "Tennessee Pontiac" (1974), the amiable auto inches its nose partially into blistering sunlight, its headlights appearing to glance sideways — it's Charlie Chaplin on wheels. Irony unfolds after the chuckles, in the form of slashing red diagonals, or, in another image, in a rusted Ford, weathering like driftwood on a beach.
Lubliner attributes his results to "the force of the unintended consequence" and
"following unconscious and well practiced habits," concluding, "I have a long, comfortable and trusting relationship with my muse."
"Edo Redux," Dater's self-curated photographs in the last gallery, exposes connections and contrasts in work she created during six trips to Japan. In 1963, just one year before her "Imogen and Twinka" became Life Magazine's first full frontal nude female image, Dater's camera caught a re-emerging, postwar world. "It was like seeing old Japanese prints come to life," she writes, in an exhibition artist statement.
Several photographic pairings offer proof of her enduring fascination with texture and subject matter. A 30-year gap separates "Dog in Basket" and "Woman and Poodle," but veins on a dog owner's aged hand and swirling hair on a poodle form a correlation. Pride of ownership are held in common, suspended across two centuries in a perfectly proportioned basket and a dog-loving gaze.

Each little pouch is lovingly hand made using yarn wound up from Kim's studio in colourful designs. All pouches are lined with a found material like denim, curtain or vintage fabric.
Please see photos for colours. *note* you may get a different inside fabric, but they will always go with the knitting.
Measurements: This is our 'Pencil Case' size. Approx 10in(25.5cm) x 3.75in(9.5cm)
With an easy zip closure, these are perfect for throwing into your handbag or knitting bag. (I keep my DPNs, a tape measure and a little scissors in mine!)
GRYFFINDOR: This design is inspired by the Hogwarts house scarves that the whole gang wore in the films, but of course I've added my own little spin to it. The 'Red' is a mix of rusty red and maroon and a brighter red, and the 'Gold' is a mix of bright yellow, goldenrod and fawns. I love the way that mixing colours gives it a more dynamic and interesting feel. It also reminds me of how Molly Weasley might've made her kid's school scarves from whatever yarn she had lying around (instead of buying them)- and we could all use a little more Mrs. Weasley in our life.

Every writer hears it over and over again, "Read." If you want to become a better writer, read, read, read. Typically, though, most writers primarily read from the types of books they wish to write. Mystery writers read mysteries. Thriller writers read thrillers and so on. It's natural and necessary to do this because only through reading a specific genre do you learn that genre's rules. However, there's another aspect to the read, read, read that is often overlooked.
In short, that aspect is every other type of book.
Even if you write mysteries, you can benefit from reading other genres as well as nonfiction. Other genres provide insight into alternative ways of handling the various aspects of writing like tension, plot, character, and conflict. Seeing other genres' techniques expands upon your own.
But what about nonfiction? Despite its lack of plots, characters, and conflicts, nonfiction can widen our perspectives and fill our pools of inspiration.
Right now, in preparation for training our two new Border Collie/German Shepherd mix puppies, I'm pouring through dog training books I checked out from the library. They span the gamut from Cesar Millan the Dog Whisperer himself to dog language and a book on the specific breed. At the same time, I'm helping one of my children through an art book on drawing faces. At first glance, neither of these books would benefit me as a speculative fiction writer, but the truth is they hold a wealth of inspiration and insight.
For example, as a dog lover, I enjoy occasionally slipping in a dog as a character. In a WIP (work in progress) that's currently in the final editing stage before I send it off to agents and editors, my hero has a dog companion. Growing up with dogs, I can write them with some finesse. I've watched and played with them often enough. I know the pleasure of having a dog who adores you. However, these dog training books have given me a much deeper understanding of dogs and inspired me to return to that WIP with an eye toward deepening the dog companion, who by the way is named Dog. When I'm finished, the effort will certainly help the story and, hopefully, my chances of getting it published.
So when you hear the advice to read, don't limit yourself. Read widely. Read on random subjects. Read on subjects that apply to your current life. Read to broaden your perspectives. Don't just read your own genre.
What interesting books are you reading or have finished recently outside your chosen genre that have broadened your perspectives?

San Francisco - Google has assured users of its smartphone wallets that the mobile-age technology thwarts thieves better than old-school cash or credit cards."Mobile payments are going to become more common in the coming years, and we will learn much more as we continue to develop Google Wallet," Google payments vice president Osama Bedier said in a blog post."In the meantime, you can be confident that the digital wallet you carry provides defences that plastic and leather simply don't."A Google Wallet feature that lets people load prepaid card information in smartphones for spending was re-activated this week after being shut off for a few days to fix a potential security vulnerability."While we're not aware of any abuse of prepaid cards or the Wallet PIN resulting from these recent reports, we took this step as a precaution to ensure the security of our Wallet customers," Bedier said.Security featuresThe action from Google came after a Zvelo Labs researcher demonstrated software that quickly figures out a Wallet personal identification number (PIN), provided the crook has the smartphone.The researcher dismissed the threat of hackers picking Google Wallets remotely, explaining that physical access is needed to get priority access to controls in a process called "rooting".Security specialists advise Google Wallet to enable security features such as full-disk encryption and screen locks.Google Wallet is available only on Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus smartphones. Google plans to expand the feature to more Android phones.Google Wallet uses a near field communication chip embedded in a phone to allow a user to "tap-and-pay" for purchases at a checkout register equipped with the PayPass system from CitiMasterCard.Customers can also use a Google Prepaid card to pay for purchases, topping up the Google card with any payment card, and take advantage of Google Offers, the Mountain View, California-based company's online discount coupon programme.In addition to allowing for mobile payments, Google Wallet allows consumers to pay using gift cards and to redeem promotions such as discounts or coupons.

Jerry Seinfeld: Comedian for DVD
Jerry Seinfeld is a working stand-up comic again. This film is a candidly revealing, intimately observed, and often very funny look at what it takes to be a comedian. On-stage, Jerry delivers his hilarious brand of observational humor. Off-stage, he struggles with difficult material, confronts self-doubt, revels in small successes, and accepts help and support from friends and colleagues, including Colin Quinn, Ray Romano, Chris Rock, Garry Shandling, Jay Leno, and Bill Cosby. The movie also discovers the sharp wit of rising young comic Orny Adams -- outspoken, insecure, and fanatical about becoming the 'next big thing.' What emerge are two fascinating journeys by two contrasting personalities who have some surprising parallels.
