One Fireman's Fight for Himself and the Chronic Pain Patient
By Ed Coghlan
"I'm scared, man."
That's how Michael Young, a retired Lansing, Michigan firefighter and paramedic describes his life these days.
Young is a 58-year old chronic pain patient who was injured on the job many years ago and like many firefighters he was injured more than once. Like many patients, he had been using opioid medication to manage his pain. Recently, his dosage was cut.
The results have been disastrous for Young who has lost thirty pounds in the past three months because as he said, "the pain hurts so much I just don't want to eat".
Young, a firefighter who literally has saved lives, reached out the National Pain Report.
Young may be scared (and more than a little angry), but he isn't just taking it lying down. He's become a one-man activist in trying to bring the plight of the pain patient to the attention of people who might do something.
Young first reached out to the US Pain Foundation, the largest pain patient advocacy organization. Young wanted to move fast, and he had some experience doing public relations when he was with the Fire Department, so he took matters into his own hands.
He has contacted Michigan U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow and his own union—the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF).
He's getting positive responses from both.
Senator Stabenow wrote him saying "I agree that individuals living with severe pain need access to a variety of treatment options so they can find relief and lead productive lives."
She also pointed out that the CDC guideline are not rules that legally bind doctors in their treatment of patients.
Young, who is in constant communication with a key Stabenow staffer, has been pressing the case to her that while the CDC Guideline may not be binding, the doctors are acting like it is.
And a spokesperson for the Michigan Professional Firefighters Union, who has known Young for many years, says the issue on their radar as well. He explained that Young's own local IAFF #421 is already looking for other firefighters that have a similar story to Young's. As more injured retired firefighters are identified other locals and state unions could also join the effort.
"Guys get hurt on the job. We must sure they are taken care of," a union official told the National Pain Report.
Young became a firefighter in 1981. He was initially hurt on the job in a scene that he said looked like it could have come from the movie Backdraft.
"I was literally blown out of a burning building and landed on my back," he said. "The guys at the scene said, 'it should have killed you.'"
It didn't.
But the aches and severe pains from the event have never left him. Young has lived in pain since 1983.
Several years later, he entered another burning building to pull a woman and a baby out of a fire. He tore muscles and herniated a disc in his back.
They put him on Vicodin and told him he could go on disability.
But Young grew up wanting to be a fireman, so he declined. He hated the pain but he loved the work.
And for years after, especially in his work as a paramedic where he was lifting people out of auto wrecks and other accidents, he just continued to beat himself up.
Finally, in 2004, his body broke down and he left on a disability.
During that time, his doctor had changed his medication to OxyContin. "He told me it was non-habit forming and it was the best pain relief I'd ever had."
Of course, Young like many others who were prescribed it at the time, found out it was habit forming.
Still the pain—both physical and mental—persisted and Young had what he said was a tough time getting right.
He was seeing a psychologist and had to endure a lot of loss—the loss of what he loved to do and then in a six-month period his mother and grandmother and two close friends all died and he also underwent shoulder surgery.
"All that threw me for a loop," he said.
But in recent years, he was "getting my life back". He was working with a psychologist and was focused on getting better. He was making progress.
"My PTSD, depression and anxiety were easing, I was a lot more active around the house, I was getting some exercise and my relationship with my wife was just great— and then I got that damn letter."
His rehabilitation care specialist informed him that they were going to dramatically reduce his dosage—to the point where he's only taking 25% of the pain medication of what he was taking.
"It's been a living nightmare, Ed," he said. "I can hardly function."
But he can still fight.
"The pain patient has no advocates—we have to do this ourselves and get people in power to listen," he said
He feels like Senator Stabenow and her staff have heard him. He thinks the Fire Fighters Union has heard him.
"I plan to keep fighting. I'm addicted to life and I want mine back," he said.

Great post!
Is anyone doing a petition, like Change.org, to collect millions and millions of pain patients' signatures that we could hand deliver to Congress? It's hard for pain patients to do "demonstrations in the streets" kind of advocacy, because we can't move around much, especially when we're hurting.
I'm a disabled physician. I keep my license current, mainly so that I can keep up on what's happening in my lost profession.
To my horror, my State Medical Board is now monitoring pharmacy records of all prescribers. We are allowed a certain number of "morphine equivalents" per month (one morphine equivalent= one milligram of oxycodone, for instance). I can't remember the exact number, but it's pitifully small. The idea, they say, is to catch "pill mills." Unfortunately, they also catch people like orthopedists who tend to dispense a lot of opioid prescriptions, and rightly so, which everyone knows who has ever had bones broken and/or sawed. Doctors who exceed the morphine equivalent limit are censured, have their names published in a monthly report available to the public (public shaming), and can have their licenses limited or suspended.
So yes, the states have taken up the mission of limiting doctors' autonomy to prescribe on a case-by-case basis, as we have always done. If I were not totally disabled I would hang up my white coat and teach high school biology.

Politicians act like they have never heard what is going on. But yet you go online and find where they voted for this to happen for us. No they won't contact you back. Never had one accept Jay Inslees office governor of Washington state. Only honest one I have ever known was him. I don,t know what we are going to do, but we have to band together so our voice will be heard. So we have any leaders out there ?
Mary Dunigan at 11:00 pm
I too have suffered from the backlash! I have Lupus, DDD, migraines and ao much more. I have spent my life taking care of others! Twenty if those years in the back breaking nursing field! I am so diaheartened to now have the community treat me as they could care less if I live or die! After my Doc of ten years retired I was unable to find another primary to take me! Not only unwilling to prescribe meds but unwilling to take me as a patient at all!!!! I did not know that was even something that could be done! I was left to withdraw off fentanyl 100 mcg patches and oxys on my own. The pain and the withdrawls had me on the floor writhing and primally screaming out! Passing in and out if consciousness! My husband found me unresponsive and called 911! I awoke inan ambulance and the looks on the EMS worker's faces I will never forget! My BP was DOWN to 220/146 I heard one of them say! The pain had caused me to go into a cardiac hypertensive crisis! I am only 41 and opiate withdrawl and pain almost killed me!!!! Now that I have survived I want to FIGHT! Fight those that are no longer alive in order to fight! Fight for those that can't get out of bed to fight! They think that by treating us as if we don't matter that we will all die off and or go away! We don't deserve this and I want to fight! But my question is how???? Our letters go unanswered our complaints go ignored! What can we feasibly do that will make a difference? What will get our voices heard! I almost died! I know I am not the only one who has been cut off and endured the horrific consequences! The only recourse I can think of ;involves contacting an attorney! Class action?!!! Also I must say medicinal marijuana has been a great alternative for me and I recommend it to anyone looking to ease their suffering and improve their quality if life. It did mine! God Bless pain survivors! You are never alone! ❤❤❤❤

Mr. Young we need to get a patent and a design!
How awesomely simple and powerful something we have all been thinking and phrased so perfectly! With your permission sir I would like to use it and if asked I will make sure you get credit for it. This fight is far to important but passing that around will stick in people's heads and help make them think and maybe look for correct education. I am dealing with same treatment here in Tennessee and it's took my quality if life to nothing. Not only cut on amount but also the type of medication as well they are on a one size fits all mentality here sadly.
Stephen Rodrigues, MD at 4:23 pm
I've witnessed hundreds of these stories, and they all make me feel nauseous especially knowing that you all have been betrayed. And do not believe that there is a way our of pain.
Is it so hard to assert the God-given fact that the human body is innately and perfectly designed to take care of itself with a few basic daily requirements?
I see chronic complicated pain problems in my office every day and everyone response to the simple treatment recipe which I have placed here many times before but this is the basic recipe:
1. Nutritious foods, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements.
2. Work life, spiritual life, fun life, stress life balance.
3. Daily exercise along with physical therapy.
4. A good nights sleep.
The original reasons why we have these problems today are direct descendent of the evil actions of a few physicians in the 1960s. These doctors tricked everyone into believing that you can treat pain by removing body parts. Now that I say that it is utterly bizarre today everyone expects that amputation of a body part is the best treatment for pain.
The skeleton is innocent. The skeleton and any of its components cannot generate the amount of pain you're having. Only the muscular system can produce this amount of pain and misery.
These bad doctors had to back up their trick of the mind by also taking away all of the corrective physical therapy options. Free and open PT can be perfectly matched to the patient's individual pain needs. By customizing PT by nature, there is an inherent guarantee to eliminate the derived muscular pain.
Asking for more pain medicine from the government is asking them to do nothing for you and your plight to help your destiny. I would suggest you call Novitas Solutiosn, Inc, who are the barriers which are guarding your treatments. I would ask them to let physical therapy go!! Place it back on the front burner!
Is it so difficult to believe that we have all been set up?
Is it so hard to believe that we've been set up for profits?
Is it so hard to believe that so many people can be miserable without a reasonable, logical answer?
It is tough for me to believe that the honor and integrity of physicians are dead.
It's tough for me to discover that some doctors, hospitals, device manufacturers, insurance executives are involved in true criminal activities. These accomplices are using misinformed consent to cut-out living viable tissues from wounded and innocent Americans to buy luxury items for themselves.

Every time I read these articles and comments…I can't help wishing they were all lying on the desks of senators and representatives and the president and civil rights activists and their lawyers and in all the church newsletters and plastered all over the Internet and in the AARP magazine and the newspapers and radio stations and in medical schools and nursing programs, even coffee shops and beauty palors….ANYWHERE that could make our situations known and recruit more people to work WITH us and help us!! But sadly, everyone who reads these has likely experiences of their own that mirror what's happened to the author and the commenters!! What if the NPR could set up a small network/relay to make this happen…funded by our donations or out of the goodness of their hearts, to put every article and the comments in circulation?? Both in hard copy and through the Internet? What if what we said here counted toward educating people about what's happening? Wouldn't that be a worthy goal?! Would you, Ed? Could you, with our help and support? If these comments and stories touch my heart, I can't help thinking they would also touch the hearts of those who aren't part of this crazy witchhunt!! And we need those people to stand with us…because it seems no one else is!! We can't really fight this problem with logic…because it isn't a logical medical issue, but rather caused by greed and power and deceit and false statistics to generate fear and illogical reactions! So we must speak to the heart of the public and let them know we're suffering needlessly. Let them know we need their help …because it's likely to impact them or their loved ones from an accident or illness in the future! And I can't think,of a better way to start that happening en mass! Can anyone? How can we make this happen? And how do we keep pain care from ENTIRELY falling back into the dark ages where it was seen as a punishment for sinning?! How can we use EVERYTHING at our disposal to open the eyes of the general public, and gain their COMPASSION and HELP?!

I KNOW THE FEAR!!! I'm a former RadTech whow went from being a very healthy, PRODUCTIVE, active mother of 5 to a permanently disabled Chronic pain MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All because of a "simfple" COMMON Cholecystectomy!!! I was finally diagnosed (3yrs and over 180 ambulance transports to the ER and admittance to hospital later) with Spincter of Oddi Dysfunction (SOD) and Chronic Pancreatitis! Now NO-ONE in Fort Wayne IN (2nd largest city in Indiana) has EVER HEARD of sphincter of oddi dysfunction so I ONLY get treated for Pancreatitis which is why I'm STILL constantly in the hospital! NO ONE LISTENS to me!!! My PCP will treat me in the hospital with 3mg dilaudid every 3hrs IV and 25mcg fentnyl every 72hrs. But as soon as I'm discharged NOTHING!! I've been to 4 different pain Dr's. Now and have been let go because my case is too "difficult" to treat! I'm on the 5th and FINAL pain Dr. that will deal with internal abdominal pain but was informed he doesn't prescribe narcotics until AFTER I exhaust ALL OTHER OPTIONS, which are PHYSICAL THERAPY (I'm 5′ 7″ and 130lbs. AND I already work out with my mother in law whose a physical therapist) BUT THAT DOESN'T COUNT, working with a NUTRITIONIST (already did that 4 years ago, but now I have a JG feeding tube so I only use formula) but THAT DOESN'T MATTER, going to a PSYCHIATRIST, did that already for the past 4 pain Dr's, BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER, and last but not least STEROIDS, been there tried those made it worse to which I was told "it'll seem like it's getting worse but keep taking them, it'll get better" ummm NO, NO IT WON'T!!! But that fell on "deaf ears" so he did prescribe 12mcg of fentnyl every 72hrs for 3 months! It's NOT working but I'm TERRIFIED to call and report to him that I'm laying in my bed in PAIN listening to the rest of my family having a great time WITHOUT mom! I/they have been dealing with this for 7yrs now and it's been the WORST of times of my 46yrs on this planet!! My children have practically raised themselves and are staring to view me as a BURDEN although they love me very much I know, but between the hearing mom SCREAM in pain and BEGGING for help, the numerous ambulance runs and hospital admittances usually 2-3 day stays sometimes longer, and the NON ACTIVITY and laying in bed when home has taken a toll on my MARRIAGE and RELATIONSHIP WITH MY CHILDREN! Now the DEPRESSION has set in with me, I've been told over and over by PARAMEDICS /EMTS that I'm "NOT GOING TO GET THAT FIX YOUR WANTING" as well as ER personnel treating me like I'm an addict and making me SUFFER for HOURS (I've went 36hrs.straight vomiting) before FINALLY getting the PROPER TREATMENT I DESERVE!!!!!!!! I have the SAME symptoms everytime I go to the ER, I even give them a copy of my diagnosis, I've called in the COO of the hospital, my husband and I BOTH went to see him. We told him about my case and the situations I was having, his comment was "the ER is so big and has so many personnel that it's impossible to get to everyone to tell them about my case" to which I piped up and said "you mean to tell me that there is NO WAY possible to put a flag on my account to alert them of my condition and treatment protocol"?? To which he said "yes there's no way to that" "YET" I said " you can flag an account of being a possible addict looking for a fix"? I got a blank stare and meeting was ended because of a "call" he had to make. I think my husband threw him for a loop when he told him that he was an IT/ Desk Top Engineer and knows the medical systems he set up while deployed in Iraq had the abilities to individually notate personal treatment protocols for each patient and that was a bunch of "HORSE S**T" he was shoveling! LOL! But seriously here's a question for you, how can ANIMALS have a HUMANE SOCIETY that watches over and PROTECTS their care and treatment , BUT an actual HUMAN has absolutely positively NOTHING/NO ONE watching over and PROTECTING their care and treatment?!?!!!! The way pain patients are treated is simply IN-HUMANE!!! What does this say about our future?!?!
Sandra at 10:14 am
Yes I hear you. My doctor just told me she had to stop giving me pain medication. I was taking only a small amount which still left me in pain. Hydrocodone -acet 10/325 tablets. I in Washington state. My husband will have to put me in a nursing home now. I can't get around to help him with anything. I will not be going to a nice nursing home for people with a little money. The kinds I have to go to should really be shut down. I'm scared. I'm 68 years old and my life is over. Research on the nursing home is you usually last about 2 years. Don,t let any one tell you any different. The people that can get around last longer.
Well here it is. We pay the wages of the people that are treating us this way. We the people have no say . This is not about wanting to keep people safe it's about that old holly dollar.
We better find a way fast to band together and get something done about the politicians doing this to us. This problem hasn't even reached the people yet. They don't have a idea on what is coming down the road with health care. We need a leader we have to join together. I am in so much pain, no one will help me.
cliff macway at 9:13 am
Same thing here in Vacaville California. Kaiser Permanente is in a wich hunt to pull every Chronic pain patient of of opioids unless you are a cancer patient because the CDC are replacing doctors! Opioids were my last option to deal with severe spinal issues. And now this insane decision from our government. I had asked one of my doctors what were they going to replace my Norco with and she said "nothing". Then I asked what am I going to do?? Her reply was "get used to it".
Mark G. at 8:06 am
It is a disgrace for anyone to have the carpet pulled from under them like this firefighter! Whatever happened to the oath Doctors take to "Above all, do NO harm". Do they really think they have done this pain sufferer a favor? What is medicine coming to? Scary scary times. Yes I am a chronic pain patient who is very frightened that anyway I will be back to living a life of suffering.
Martha Arntson at 6:40 am
Your story has inspired me once again to fight against these new "Guidelines" that have been implemented over the past 6 months or more. I too was abruptly taken off my minimal amount of Percocet 7.5 mg 3 x day. March, 2016 my Pain Management Physician said "I am not prescribing anymore Schedule II opiates for you". That was that. I left with my "alternative" pain relief which was a mild muscle relaxer, and the Butrans patch.
Since then I have been put on Oral Buprenorphine, Subutex and more Butrans patches and lastly Beluca (a brand name that costs 4 x as much as the generic). Almost 4 months later I have managed my pain with heating pads on my neck and low back, tons of Advil (not good for my stomach issues), Excedrin Migraine and my Tens Unit. All which do not make for daily pain relief unless I want to try to drive or even do light housework with a Salon Paws patch or a microwave heated bean bag strapped around me. None of these eliminate pain much, but what else can I do?
The doctors are telling me that as of August, 2016 99% of their patients will be on a form of Buprenorphine, a brand drug called Beluca. Needless to say, it is just Buprenorphine under another name, packaged for sale via RX only, Schedule II and is very expensive.
I am so sorry for your pain. I wish there were some avenues for people like you who have served your community so faithfully and could withstand your pain with the appropriate amount of pain medication. I fear more like you will suffer because of this blanket "GUIDELINE" that seems to have spread very quickly, like FIRE, around the Pain Management Facilities in every State.
Please keep us updated as to your progress trying to get some relief and help? Thank you again for sharing your story of pain.
HJ at 5:33 am
Michael, I wish you the best. It's shameful that they're doing this to people like you. My parents' house burned down in 2005. I have a special place in my heart for men who put their lives on the line like you did. My parents weren't home at the time and they had insurance. They did return home and they both entered the house via separate entryways. Thankfully, both got out without any harm. I was devastated to hear that they'd gone inside to try to save their pets. The loss of the pets was terrible, but I thank the Lord my parents weren't hurt… or killed. I lived in another city on the other side of the state when this occurred.
There is a "before the fire" and "after the fire." Our lives now are time-stamped that way. I can't imagine what you've seen and been through. Please hang in there. I'm sending love and prayers from Pittsburgh, PA. God bless you, and keep fighting for relief.
V. Wood at 3:46 am
I am sorry for your situation, Mr. Young, and glad that you may be having some success with the contacts you have made.
I have lived with chronic pain for ten years because of neurological damage caused by chemotherapy. My primary care physician, fearful of regulatory backlash, cut all her patients completely off pain medication five years ago. I complained about the situation and not only was fired from the practice but also threatened with being blackballed from finding another PCP because I am a "drug seeker." I had thought it was cancer that was going to take my life. Instead I found the greater threat to my health was the fear held by medical professionals of patients with chronic pain. The only way I was recently able to find another PCP was to promise never to mention my chronic pain or to ask the practice to treat my pain. That is not how I thought a medical professional was to practice, but at this point I will take what I can get treatment for my other medical conditions.
I have lived for ten years in daily pain and for the past five have been mostly housebound. After the CDC "guidelines" were issued, I wrote to my two US Senators and one US Representative, but never heard back from any of them. I am glad you are having more success, and hope that your efforts may start helping you and others who have found that pain medication allows them to live a semblance of a productive life. All my best to you, Mr. Young.

Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
- Heat Disorders
- Overview of Heat Disorders
- Heat Cramps
- Heat Exhaustion
- Heatstroke
- Malignant Hyperthermia
- Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
- Serotonin Syndrome
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is confusion or unresponsiveness, muscle rigidity, high body temperature, and other symptoms that occur when certain antipsychotic (neuroleptic) drugs or anti-vomiting (antiemetic) drugs are used.
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome develops in a very small number of people who are given certain types of drugs.
Symptoms include a dangerously high body temperature, muscle rigidity, and agitation.
Doctors base the diagnosis on the person's symptoms and on what they find during a physical examination.
Treatment involves stopping the drug, reducing body temperature, and providing support in an intensive care unit.
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome develops in a small number of people who are treated with antipsychotic or antiemetic drugs (see Table: Drugs That Can Cause Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome), usually within the first few weeks of treatment. The risk of developing the syndrome varies between 0.02% and 3% depending on many factors. The syndrome is most common among men who, because they are agitated, are given rapidly increased doses of antipsychotics or high doses initially. Doctors are not sure why the syndrome develops.
Drugs That Can Cause Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
Symptoms usually develop over a few days and include
Damaged muscles release the protein myoglobin, which is excreted in the urine and turns the urine brown. This condition (myoglobinuria) can cause acute kidney injury or even kidney failure. About 10 to 20% of people die, even with rapid treatment.
Doctors suspect the diagnosis when people taking a drug known to cause neuroleptic malignant syndrome develop characteristic symptoms and physical examination findings, particularly severe muscle rigidity. There are no tests that confirm the diagnosis. However, because other disorders (for example, meningitis and sepsis) can cause similar symptoms, doctors often do tests for those disorders. Doctors also do blood and urine tests to look for muscle protein breakdown and kidney injury.
People with this syndrome are usually treated in an intensive care unit. The drug is stopped and fever is controlled, usually by wetting (misting) and blowing air over the skin or by using special cooling blankets. People who are very agitated are given sedatives by vein. Other treatments of possible but unproven benefit are often used because of the severity of this condition. These include dantrolene (a muscle relaxant, to reduce fever and muscle damage) and bromocriptine (to improve nerve function).

She's BackGood Day Everyone.
My name is Veronica and I would like to make a comeback in the blogosphere.
Some of you might remember me, or at least I hope you do. I started a blog before and then BOOM, I disappeared. Just like that. My once treasured blog, abandoned. I don't know what exactly occurred to push me towards inactivity. I guess, to make the story short, school just swallowed me whole. I avoided to think about my blog and how I just left it to rot.
A few months passed and my blog's platform already got contaminated with all these issues such as comments being deleted and it just got loads of spam. A sign that it was poorly maintained. It was disheartening. I didn't even visit it anymore. Well, because I was very disappointed in myself. Once again, I wasn't responsible enough to make things work. But right now, I'm optimistic about the future of this blog. I'll try my best to maintain this blog for as long as I can. I won't pull a disappearing act anymore, no matter how busy I am with my life. That's a promise and I'm going to keep it. What can I say, I really miss writing about what I think/feel and reading about other people's lives too. It's really fun and keeps my creative juices flowing.
By the way, this blog is entitled as Joy to the World! because it's nearly Christmas time and I'm a really happy person, NOT! It's just a take on my middle name, of which I'm not even a tiny bit proud of and that my classmates make fun of me for. It's JOY, okay, and I'm speaking to the world, so Joy to the World, get it? I just realized how corny that is and my sense of humor probably wasn't present when I thought of that.
This was my previous home, if you were wondering http://thewalrus.cotton-candy.net/. :)

Lady Kul El Arab Trailer (2008)
22 November 2008 Factual 56 mins
Angelina, the first Druze woman to attempt significant steps in the Israeli fashion world, finds herself in the middle of a complicated conflict in which the tradition and values of her society clash with her brave efforts to choose her own way in life. Duah Fares, a young woman from the Druze village of Sagur in the Galilee, was one of the 12 finalists in the beauty pageant for Israeli-Arab women - 'Lady Kul el-Arab.' While preparing for the pageant, a special relationship develops between Duah and fashion designer Jack Yaakob. Together they go to Tel Aviv to register Duah for the general Israeli beauty contest as well. Duah breezes through the preliminary selections for the contest and changes her name to Angelina. Lady Kul el-Arab which set out as a glamorous film about a beauty pageant, turned into a moving story of a family caught between cultures.

Instalações de fácil acesso: Embora este apartamento está situado em uma final tranquila da praia, há muitos excelentes restaurantes a uma curta distância. Também a uma curta distância são supermercados, lojas, escorregas e um labirinto gigante para as crianças. Existe uma vasta gama de entretenimento para crianças e adultos na área. Há um bom sistema de transporte local mas, se você quiser alugar um carro, há muitas empresas de aluguer de automóveis na ilha.
After recently holidaying for the first time at Els Girasols Menorca,In fact even Spain.
I feel i must comment on what a really relaxing,charming and pleasant time my party had.
The apartment was precisely as described and for my party was ideally situated in a lovely charming spot close enough to all amenities whilst keeping its pleasant relaxed quality.
The whole experience was a delight, due to a great location and the friendly pleasant people on the island.
This was a amazing holiday we would strong reccomend it to any one im coming here again next year cant wait and this time with my daughter and grandchildren i loved it.Me and my partner went private hire it was spectacular we had 2 balconies which was an amazing view of the swimming pool .The club was great some good entertainment and we even went mega bowl near by had a great time .I would happily say its the best holiday i've been on in a long time ,if you are thinking of coming dont hesitate just come !!
We stayed in this apartament in June and found it was in a lovely quiet location, just a 15 minute stroll to the centre of Son Bou and the beach. The gardens and pools are well maintained and there is plenty of room for kids to play. The apartment is a good size, the decor and furnishings are a little dated and it could do with a bit more equipment in the kitchen. We were two adults and two children so it was ok but four adults might struggle to find enough crockery etc.
The reception staff at the complex were extremely helpful and the apartment is situated just 2 minutes from reception and an Italian Restaurant. All in all this apartment is good value for money, in a lovely location.
We've just returned from our holiday in Anne's apartment. We had a fabulous time in Son Bou. The apartment is very airy and spacious and has everything you need. we have a two year old and I panicked when I saw the steps up to the apartment but there's a gate that slots into either side of the wall at the top of the steps which is excellent, making it unbelievably safe for young children. The fan in the apartment is really powerful and we used it in the nights to keep our little un cool in bed. Worked a treat! The apartment is extremely clean and the kitchen and bathroom are newly refurbished. It was lovely to open the doors of the rear verandah and the front doors in the daytime, a lovely breeze came through the apartment... watch the doors don't slam though. There are big stones in the apartment to use as door stops. The apartment has 4 sun loungers with it for the sole use of guests, which is a real bonus as its really relaxing sunbathing in the gardens.
As for the complex of Els Girasols itself, its beautiful and very quiet compared to the other apartment complexes in Son Bou. It is slightly further away from the centre but its marginal. My brother and sister in law were staying in son bou gardens/san jaime complex and it was much noisier. The Els Girasols pool is lovely although the big pool is deep!. The gentleman who cleans the pool and maintains the gardens is meticulous in his job. He spends hours and hours making the grounds and pool look beautiful.
Son Bou is a lovely family resort with lots of great restaurants and bars. The little fair in the centre was amazing for keeping the children occupied in the nights and tiring them out! The beach is AMAZING!!
If I had one teensy grumble it would be that the sofa in the living area of the apartment wasn't the most comfortable. Having a small child, we spent quite a bit of time in the apartment in the evenings and we couldn't really curl up on the sofa. Other than that, we had a fantastic holiday in Anne's apartment and I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a holiday in Son Bou.
The Ashford family, S. Wales.
Els Girasols é um pequeno complexo de 2 andares apartamentos situados em uma extremidade tranqüila da praia. O apartamento está a uma curta distância da longa praia de Son Bou, na costa sul da ilha. Esta praia tem sido descrito por especialistas em viagens como a melhor praia em Menorca. Son Bou é cerca de 20 minutos de carro, ônibus ou táxi do aeroporto em Mahon.

Miami's Taylor has shoulder surgery
CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Miami safety Sean Taylor will miss Saturday's game against Temple after having minor shoulder surgery.
Taylor had arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder Monday, but should be ready for a Big East showdown against No. 3 Virginia Tech on Nov. 1 because the second-ranked Hurricanes have a week off after playing the Owls.
The 6-foot-3, 220-pound junior is tied for the national lead with six interceptions. He picked off two passes against Florida State last Saturday -- including one he returned 50 yards for a touchdown -- and knocked down several more. He also earned Big East defensive player of the week honors.
"From what I saw, he might have been defensive player of the world," coach Larry Coker said Tuesday. "He had a phenomenal day."
Without Taylor, sophomore Greg Threat will make his second consecutive start. Threat filled in for Maurice Sikes against the Seminoles and played well. Sikes, who sat out with a sprained right knee, is expected to play Saturday.
"That's going to be a huge plus for us," Coker said. "And with Brandon Meriweather and Greg Threat, we're going to be fine there."
The Hurricanes also will be without receiver Roscoe Parrish on Saturday.
Parrish was released from a Tallahassee hospital Monday, two days after a brutal hit caused internal bleeding.
Parrish spent two nights at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital after Florida State cornerback Stanford Samuels knocked him to the ground on a crossing route in the second quarter. Coker called the play a clean hit.
Coker said he sent a letter to FSU president T.K. Wetherell, thanking him for the support Parrish received from the Seminoles. Florida State coaches called to check on Parrish, and the team trainer visited him in the hospital.
Parrish's injuries have not been specified, but bruising to his internal organs was the initial concern. Coker said he expects Parrish to play again this season.

Aberdeen lawyer cleared of calling wife's lover a monkey
A LAWYER was cleared yesterday of racially abusing his wife's celebrity fitness trainer lover.
Alexander Hutcheon was accused of branding Steve Agyei a "monkey" after turning up at a pub in Aberdeen to plead with his wife to come home.
The 58-year-old was alleged to have whispered the remark in Mr Agyei's ear when he appeared in the Noose and Monkey pub with his son.
Mr Hutcheon said he had gone to prove to his teenage son that his wife Nicola Hutcheon was still with her lover, despite her promising to return to the family.
He admitted that either he or his son had made disparaging remarks about Mr Agyei's clothes, but denied racially abusing the 49-year-old.
From the start I had every confidence the Scottish legal system would ensure justice prevailed. The verdicts today proved that
Mr Agyei, whose clients have included ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair's wife Cherie and football legend David Beckham, claimed he had been labelled a "tink" by Mr Hutcheon.
Yesterday sheriff Janys Scott ruled there was no evidence to show anyone had suffered fear or alarm as libelled in the charge and acquitted Mr Hutcheon.
Mr Hutcheon, director of a property firm in the north-east of Scotland, originally went on trial facing three charges.
But the Crown later stated it was no longer seeking a conviction on an assault charge claimed to have been committed against his wife at their home on January 29.
The sheriff then ruled there was no case to answer on a further alleged offence of making racist remarks during the argument at the couple's home on the same date.
After yesterday's hearing at Aberdeen Sheriff Court, Mr Hutcheon said: "Myself and my family are glad this ordeal is over.
"From the start I had every confidence the Scottish legal system would ensure justice prevailed. The verdicts today proved that.
"I hope we might now draw a line under matters to allow Nicola, my children and myself to move on."
During the trial, the court was shown private Facebook messages sent by Mr Agyei to Nicola, 44, during their relationship which mentioned her husband.
One spoke about him "going down big time" and another stated: "He's just about to lose everything."
Mr Hutcheon's lawyer George Mathers insisted that Mr Agyei had launched a campaign to destroy his client and suggested he was penniless and after money.
Mrs Hutcheon's relationship with Mr Agyei ended recently.
Mr Agyei said he was "devastated" about the verdict.

001. skyvalleychronicle.com states in "Kirkland Naturopath Suspended From Practicing Medicine Following Criminal Charges" (2015-07-23):
one thing I'll note from the title is that I don't think it is proper to claim that naturopaths practice medicine. They practice their weirdness known as naturopathy.
"naturopathic doctor Mark Monwai [...] on a website for his clinic, Dr. Monwai is listed as one of five health care providers at the clinic as well as the clinical director and founder of Cornerstone Family Health Clinic [...] a former chair of the Board of Naturopathy [...] who runs a practice in Kirkland, Washington has been immediately suspended by state health officials after he was criminally charged with identity theft and filing fraudulent insurance claims, according to a statement released by the Wash. State Dept. of Health [...] charges state that the King County naturopath also failed to adequately supervise or allowed an employee to practice outside the scope of practice and interfered with a Department of Health investigation";
ND Monwai practices at cornerstonehealthclinic.com with NDs Rodriguez, Chang, Wong, and Chang (here). Let's visit that practice.
"the Board of Naturopathy protects public health and safety and promotes the welfare of the state by regulating the competency and quality of health care providers under its authority. The Department of Health website is www.doh.wa.gov [...]";
let's put that to the test. Because if homeopathy as a therapy, and other nonsense, are going on at that practice, then these overseers are full of shit.
002. the practice:
002.a. in "What We Believe", the practice tells us:
" that cornerstone is Jesus. Trust Him with every aspect of your life and you will find that He never fails. He's not just a rock, He is the cornerstone [...] we believe that Jesus Christ is our cornerstone. The Savior himself said 'Did you never read in the Scripture: 'The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone' (Mathew 21:42). The apostle Peter repeated Isaiah's prophecy and added, 'And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.' (1 Peter 2:6) [...] as God as our cornerstone, we will help you align your body physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually to keep you strong [...]";
so, Christianity / belief / religion. Mixed up with medicine. AND fraud. Ok.
002.b. in "Naturopathic Medicine", we're told:
"naturopathic medicine is not defined by the substances used but rather by the principles that underlie and determine its practice. These principles include [...] the healing power of nature [...] the healing power of nature is the inherent self-organizing and healing process of living systems. Naturopathic medicine recognizes this healing process to be ordered and intelligent. It is the naturopathic physician's role to support, facilitate and augment this process [...]";
ah, coded vitalism. Now the NDs at the practice are graduates of Bastyr. To decode this coding, just look at Washington State's neighboring Oregon.gov page on naturopathy, where naturopathy in all its false glory is promoted. Why is it that the Oregon .gov board's language is SO DIFFERENT from the Washington .gov's? Because is Washington State, they FALSELY portray naturopathy in a much DEEPER way.
002.c. in "Dr. Mark Monwai, ND", we're told:
"Dr. Mark Monwai is the Clinical Director and founder of Cornerstone Family Health Clinic [...] his education in the field of natural medicine [...was at] Bastyr University [...] a doctorate in naturopathic medicine [...] he is currently a member of the Washington State Board of Naturopathy";
002.d. in "Cornerstone Family Health Clinic Patient Registration Information" :
"I, ___________________, hereby authorize Cornerstone Family Health Clinic to perform the following procedures [...] to facilitate my diagnosis and treatment [...including using] homeopathic medicine: the use of highly dilute quantities of naturally occurring plants, animals, and minerals to gently stimulate the body's healing responses [...]";
that's a false statement. That's a fake therapy: homeopathy doesn't do SQUAT beyond placebo. Why don't they prosecute THAT too, if they really are all about competency, quality, welfare, and safety? And simple DECENCY! These overseers are as full of shit as the proponents of this crap.

Good Points
The book lets your imagination run wild as to the goings on in the Thai prison system, the torture, abuse, murder, living conditions, drugs, corruption, etc.
Bad Points
The book in general was too short and thus my value for money rating (7, still not bad though), more detail could have been added to make it a longer read, but hey, I'm not complaining.
General Comments
Warren Fellows, The Damage Done: Twelve Years of Hell in a Bangkok Prison - Once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. The book was an easy read and captivating. You somehow disappear into Bang Kwang Prison and its realities. Already passed it on to my mate.
PS:It definitely has ended my thoughts of being a mule!!!!!!!

A new school year is upon us.
One of the most challenging daily tasks that goes with back to school is finding something interesting, healthy and tasty for your child to eat if they take their lunch instead of participating in a school lunch program.
Here are some tips to simplify the process.
Planning is essential to the success of packing a healthy lunch.
It allows you to prepare well-balanced meals and reduces the amount of rushing to find something to take in the morning.
We hear a lot of financial advice about planning for retirement but receive less advice about what to do with our money once retirement sets in.
If you are retired or will be soon, here are some tips from our UK Management Specialists to make your money go further.
Create a budget — Knowing how much money you have coming in and going out sounds so simplistic, but it is so important.
Think about all your income sources. For many people this includes Social Security benefits, employer sponsored benefit plans and personal investments.
Bring the whole family to this event that is free and open to the public at the Henry County Fairgrounds!
It is great place to bring the kids and grandkids and best of all there is no admission charge.
The whole event serves to showcase our wonderful agricultural heritage.
Be sure to come hungry! The Chamber of Commerce Breakfast of country ham and fresh farm eggs starts at 7:30 a.m. and runs until it is gone.
A full locally-raised breakfast is available for only $8 and includes eggs and country ham, biscuits, gravy and a beverage.

SERGIO MENDOZA Y LA ORKESTA Feat. SALVADOR DURAN
Crescent Ballroom
308 N. 2nd Ave.
Phoenix, AZ, 85003
Doors 7:30 PM / Show 8:45 PM
This event is 21 and over
Watch & Listen
A Brief Introduction to Sergio Mendoza y la Orkesta, featuring Salvador Duran It's a safe bet that most of us haven't heard the term "Indie Mambo" to describe a group before now, because such a style simply did not exist until young Sergio Mendoza invented it in late 2009, in Tucson, Arizona. The impetus? Mendoza was participating in an annual benefit event held at the world famous Club Congress, called 'The Great Cover-Up,' and had chosen the legendary Cuban bandleader Perez Prado as his coveree, as the rules of the event dictated. But combining that influence, as well as Cumbia and other Latin styles, with psychedelia-tinged rock music proved to be a formula that was extremely palatable, nay – savory, to Arizona music fans and Mendoza's fellow musicians. Mendoza had long paid his dues in various redoubts of the greater Tucson music scene – first with the crowd-pleasing Latin-influenced rock group The Jons and then with his own combo Seven to Blue, where he first got to spread his wings as a songwriter and bandleader. Over the next three or four years he did several stints with professional Salsa and dance units, like the high-energy Latin dance group Descarga, and started to, as he puts it, "really get schooling for Latin music as a piano player." In 2007 Mendoza was asked to be an emergency sub and then became a regular player in the domestic incarnation of Calexio. With Calexico, Mendoza has played the Rhode Island Folk Festival, the World Music Festival in Chicago (at the Frank Gehry-designed Pritzker Pavilion), the 2010 iteration of Vive Latino in Mexico City, and countless shows throughout the Southwest and elsewhere. Lest you consider it grandiose to call such a group an "orchestra," you must bear in mind the deadly assemblage of supporting talent that bears that moniker: a six(?)-member horn section-two drummers that put so much energy into Y La Orkesta's polyrhythms; a Latin Jimi Hendrix of a lead guitarist (Brian Lopez, whose other gig is as leader of the rock group Mostly Bears), who is a great composer and singer in his own right; and the secret weapon of y la Orkesta, the great Salvador Duran. Duran moved to Tucson from Cananea, Sonora, Mexico. Soon enough he was invited to play with Calexico in various incarnations and on various projects, including lead vocals on the title track of Calexico's joint EP with Iron and Wine, In The Reins, as well as a haunting contribution on their cover of "The Guns of Brixton" on the iTunes exclusive "Live Session" EP. He has also recorded with Willie Nelson on the song "Senor," which was released on the soundtrack for Todd Haynes' brilliant "I'm Not There" Bob Dylan biopic. But it is as the featured player in Y La Orkesta that Salvador has found the true milieu for his genius as a singer, performer, and, shall we say, ham. He serves as the perfect foil to Mendoza's suave, mannered bandleading, lending a somewhat manic and almost comic gloss to the proceedings when he's not pulling your heartstrings with his otherworldly resonant baritone. Words do not do justice to the alchemy that this combination of performers can conjure up – it is something to be heard, and witnessed, and most importantly, felt. The good news is, this is a band that is going places both physically and metaphorically. With a debut album due to be released in March of 2011, this is no doubt the first of many times you'll be hearing about a little phenomenon known as "Indie Mambo." Sergio Mendoza Y La Orkesta featuring Salvador Duran – lengthy name, yes; over-wordy, perhaps. Memorable? Indeed.

Journal Article: The Application Of An Indirect Electromagnetic Geothermometer To Temperature Extrapolation In Depth
AbstractWe study the feasibility of the application of an indirect EM geothermometer, developed recently, to the temperature extrapolation in depth using magnetotelluric data collected in the seismically active northern Tien Shan faulted area (Bishkek Geodynamic Test Site, Kyrgyzstan) and Hengill geothermal zone (Iceland). The approach used is based on the artificial neural network technique, which does not imply the prior knowledge of the electrical conductivity mechanisms on the one hand and provides temperature estimates based on the analysis of the implicit conductivity-temperature relations, on the other. The samples for neuronet teaching consisted in the well temperature records and electrical conductivity values determined for the same depths from the magnetotelluric data measured in the vicinities of eight boreholes in each testing area. The testing of the taught neuronets was carried out using the temperature records not involved in the teaching process. The results indicate that the temperature extrapolation accuracy essentially depends on the ratio between the well length and the extrapolation depth. In particular, in extrapolation to a depth twice as large as the well depth the relative error is 5-6% and in case of threefold excess, the error is around 20%. This result makes it possible to increase significantly the depth of indirect temperature estimation in the Earth's interior (in particular, for geothermal exploration) based on the available temperature logs. The practical application of an indirect electromagnetic geothermometer could provide the following facilities: 1) more exact temperature estimation in the extrapolation mode; 2) remote temperature estimates in the boreholes in areas characterized by extreme conditions for conventional geothermometers.

My husband and I have three adult children. In March 2006, we became foster parents to two brothers, ages 2 and 10. Javaree, the youngest, had suspected fetal alcohol syndrome, cognitive delays, attachment and sensory disorders and club feet. When he arrived at our home, he could not talk, could barely walk and screamed constantly. We did not know how to handle Javaree's behaviors. After a couple of weeks, we asked the social worker to come get him.
She convinced us to continue working with him and thankfully we were introduced to Fraser. We had never heard of Fraser, but immediately scheduled an evaluation. About a year later, we enrolled Javaree in Behavioral and Mental Health Services at Fraser.
Even though Javaree's behaviors were off the charts, Fraser staff viewed him so positively. They helped us rethink the way we worked with Javaree and taught us techniques to deal with his screaming. His therapist suggested we give him a telephone book and "let him rip the pages until he can't rip anymore." Miraculously it calmed him.
Javaree participated in Fraser Preschool Mental Health Day Treatment for a year. He could now talk, walk and jump. He was progressing fairly well and meeting all of his objectives. Fraser suggested we transition him into preschool to introduce him to school and typical children.
At first it was tough. Javaree had grown accustomed to Fraser and the way they did things. Though the transition was difficult, Fraser staff walked us through the process step by step and made sure that Javaree had everything he needed to be successful.
Javaree didn't understand why he had to leave Fraser. Fortunately, he saw some of the Fraser staff at his preschool. The partnership between Fraser and the preschool resulted in phenomenal changes in Javaree's behavior. After only one year, his teachers felt he was ready to move to a mainstream pre-kindergarten program.
We enrolled Javaree in the program and it was a total disaster! He seemed to be losing all the coping skills Fraser had taught him. I called Fraser therapist Carrie Middleton in a panic. She organized a meeting with the teacher, Fraser staff and the school district to come up with a way to help Javaree. The group decided the best thing would be for Javaree to transfer to a school with smaller class sizes. I also wanted him to go back to Fraser. Now Javaree has the best of both situations — he splits his day between school and the day treatment program at Fraser.
Our story has a happy ending. On November 15, 2008, we formally adopted Javaree. This would not have happened without the love, patience and "we can do it" attitude of the staff at Fraser. Thank you, Fraser, for being like an extended family to us.

Kate Boy make a powerful return with the announcement of their new single 'Midnight Sun' available on iTunes now and impacting in the UK on August 10th. 'Midnight Sun' follows on from recent releases, 'Higher' and 'Self Control' and will be featured on their debut album ONE set for release this November.
'Midnight Sun' was written and recorded by Kate Boy in Stockholm last December and draws inspiration from the endless days of sunlight during Swedish summers, often described as a magical experience. Kate Boy enlisted esteemed Swedish producer Christoffer Berg (Depeche Mode, Fever Ray, I Break Horses) to assist on the production of the track, together the collaboration created brooding synth lead verses that erupt into an explosive, anthemic chorus.

The most recent Census Estimate<1> was for 2016 and it gives Dauphin Island a population of 1,261 people.
The last Decennial Census<2> was in 2010, giving Dauphin Island a population of 1,238 people.
The town of Dauphin Island is located in Mobile County. The 2010 Census gave Mobile County a population of 412,992 people. This means that Dauphin Island had 0.3% of the county's total population, making it Mobile's 10th most populous community.
At the same time, Alabama had a population of 4,779,736 people, meaning that Dauphin Island had 0.03% of the total population of Alabama - making it the state's 235th most populous community.
When the Census Bureau conducts a census for a town like Dauphin Island, they draw a boundary around the area in which they are going to conduct their count - this is called a sampling area (or a polygon). The shape of the sampling area can be quite complex and it's important to keep in mind that the boundaries of the sampling area may or may not match the recognized boundaries of the town.
Things like the population, area and housing for Dauphin Island reflect the sampling area. Since the shape of the sampling area and the actual boundaries of Dauphin Island might be slightly different, it's best to check with the U.S. Census Bureau if you need precision.
The 2010 Census shows that the sample polygon for Dauphin Island has a total area of 166 square miles [429.8 km²]. Of this total, 6.35 square miles [16.4 km²] is land, with the balance (96.2%) being water (159.6 square miles [413.4 km²]).
Mobile County has a land area of 1,229 square miles [3,184.2 km²]. At 6.35 square miles [16.4 km²], Dauphin Island has 0.52% of the county's total land area.
Not only does the sampling area define boundaries, it also has a GPS location (latitude & longitude) that indicates a point within the sampling area (usually at the center of the polygon). At the time of the 2010 Census, the sampling area was located at:
Lat: 30° 14' 58" (or 30.25°) [Map]Lon: -88° 11' 31" (or -88.19°)
More information on this topic and the changes between the 2000 Census and the 2010 Census can be found in the section for our Census-to-Census Observations ... (see below).
Using the population (1,238 people) and land area (6.35 square miles [16.4 km²]) values from the 2010 Census, Dauphin Island had a population density of 7.46 people per square mile [2.88 people/km²].
In comparison, the 2000 Census shows Dauphin Island had a population of 1,371 people and a land area of 6.2 square miles [16 km²]. This gives a population density of 8.26 people per square mile [3.19 people/km²]
NOTE: Be aware that when comparing population density between the 2000 and the 2010 Census, there were changes in the sampling area for Dauphin Island. You need to be careful when making such a comparison, the differences are likely to lead to a questionable comparison. More information about these differences can be found in the section Census-to-Census Observations ... (see below).
At the time of the 2010 Census, Dauphin Island had 1,818 Housing Units<3> and with its population of 1,238 people, this averages 0.68 people per Housing Unit.
The 2010 Census shows Dauphin Island had a land area of 6.35 square miles [16.4 km²]. This translates to 10.96 Housing Units per square mile [4.23 housing units/km²].
From the Census of 2000: Dauphin Island had 1,691 Housing Units, a population of 1,371 people and a land area of 6.2 square miles [16 km²]. This gives a density of 0.81 people per Housing Unit and 10.18 Housing Units per square mile [3.93 housing units/km²].
NOTE: Repeating the caution above (under Population Density), be aware that when comparing Housing Units between the 2000 and the 2010 Census, there were changes in the sampling area for Dauphin Island and you need to be careful when comparing results between the censuses. More information about the nature of these the changes can be found in the section called Census-to-Census Observations ... (see below).
Dauphin Island is located in Mobile County.
The county had a population of 412,992 people at the 2010 Census. With it's population of 1,238 people, Dauphin Island represented 0.3% of the county's total.
In addition, where the town of Dauphin Island has a population density of 7.46 people per square mile [2.88 people/km²], Mobile County averages 335.9 people per square mile [129.7 people/km²].

To help identify the number of people who live in Dauphin Island and the surrounding area, we have drawn concentric rings centered on Dauphin Island. We counted the number of communities within each ring and summed their populations.<4>
When the Census Bureau takes a census count (or enumeration) for Dauphin Island, they start by specifying the boundaries of the area to be counted. This area (or sampling area) is a polygon and its shape can be quite complex - it may or may not match the geographical boundaries of Dauphin Island. It's important to note that from one Census to the next, the shape and location of the polygon can change.
If you need precision or details about the methodology of the Census, you should visit the U.S. Census Bureau for a definitive answer.
There is only a very minor difference in the sampling area given between the 2010 Census and the 2000 Census.
The 2010 Census shows that the total area for Dauphin Island was 166 square miles [429.8 km²]. Of this total, 6.35 square miles [16.4 km²] is land, with the balance (96.2%) being water (159.6 square miles [413.4 km²]).
The 2000 Census shows a total area of 166.1 square miles [430.1 km²]. Of this total, 6.2 square miles [16 km²] is land, with the balance (96.3%) being water (159.9 square miles [414.1 km²]).
While generally coinciding with the GPS location (latitude/longitude) of Dauphin Island, the latitude and longitude given by the Census Bureau actually indicates the GPS location of the polygon for Dauphin Island.
For the 2010 Census, the location was given as:
Lat: 30.249554° (or 30°14'58" N) [Map]Lon: -88.192169° (or -88°11'31" W)
For the 2000 Census, the location given was:
Lat: 30.256429° (or 30°15'23" N) [Map]Lon: -88.125231° (or -88°7'30" W)
The difference indicates that the U.S. Census Bureau moved the location of the polygon for the 2010 Census 4 miles to the west<5> of the location that was used in the 2000 Census.
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN) have assigned a unique GNIS identifier (#2406357) to Dauphin Island. This identifier also marks a GSP point on the map, and that point lies within the boundaries of Dauphin Island. The GNIS point has been mapped to the latitude/longitude:
Lat: 30.256475° (or 30°15'23" N) [Map]Lon: -88.211348° (or -88°12'40" W)
The GSP location given for the 2010 Census lies 6,545 feet to the east<6> of the point given by the GNIS for Dauphin Island. For more information about this and the relationship of the various Federal Codes, please visit our Misc Page for Dauphin Island.
The Federal government has assigned various identifying codes to each community, county and state. At one time or another, the US Census Bureau has referenced one (or more) of the following identifiers when referring to either Mobile County or the town of Dauphin Island:
The current system of identification is called the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). The following GNIS codes relate to Dauphin Island:
GNIS ID for Dauphin Island: 2406357
GNIS ID for Mobile County: 161575
GNIS ID for Alabama: 1779775
An earlier (and largely obsolete) identification method was called the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS):
State Code: 01 (Alabama)
County Code: 097 (Mobile County)
Place Code: 19744 (Dauphin Island)
State & County Code: 01/097 (Alabama / Mobile County)
State & Place Code: 01/19744 (Alabama / Dauphin Island)
Dauphin Island is located in Census Region #3 (the South Region) and Division #6 (the East South-Central Division).
While some people have used a ZIP code to identify a community, the purpose of the ZIP code was to make mail delivery more efficient by grouping addresses together. Although the ZIP Code doesn't specifically identify a town like Dauphin Island, it does identify addresses that are in (or near) Dauphin Island. It's important to remember that the boundaries of a ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned or overlapped with other ZIP Codes.
The ZIP code for Dauphin Island: 36528<7>
The US Census Bureau created statistical entities that they call ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) and these ZCTAs are frequently confused with the ZIP codes that come from the US Postal Service (USPS).
ZCTAs were first created for the 2000 Census and at that time, they were based upon the USPS ZIP codes. While largely covering the same areas, the boundaries of a ZCTA do not necessarily match the boundaries of a postal ZIP code with the same number. For example, while a postal ZIP code can cross a county or state line, a Census ZCTA can not. They should be treated as separate entities with no correlation between them.

text: I was using my X last night at 10pm, plugged it in for the night and I woke up in the morning to a dead phone. It would not turn on. I tried 3 different chargers and a battery pull, none of which helped. I took it to a store and they tried changing the battery to get it to work but nothing, did not turn on. They said another phone is going to be shipped with second day delivery. The Verizon manager said they hold phones just for something like this so I will not have to wait. I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem. I thought it might have been due to an update. Maybe I was a test dummy for 2.2 without knowing it. Has anyone else had this problem? Oh the one part I am disappointed about with all of this is that Verizon is not going to pay for or give me a replacement screen cover. I originally purchased a 3rd party screen cover which is probably going to be ruined when I pull it off of my dead X.

NOONDAY, TEXAS (Harrison County). Noonday, also known as Shortview, is a small rural community and religious site on Farm Road 450 four miles north of Hallsville in western Harrison County. The site was initially called Shortview, but in 1876, after a Baptist church was built there, a meeting called to select a new name for the community was held at high noon, and Noonday was chosen. In 1897 the Noonday School served some forty-five white pupils, and that same year the Baptist church was succeeded by the Noonday Holiness camp, which held camp meetings under a brush arbor until a tabernacle was built in 1900. The community had scattered residences and two businesses in 1948. During the 1980s the tabernacle had a historical marker and was surrounded by about a dozen small white cabins.
