Doctors remove claw hammer after attack
Published 8:54 pm, Monday, January 4, 2016
Surgeons at the Texas Medical Center had to remove a hammer from a woman's head after she was attacked in Chambers County, authorities said Monday.
Sheriff's deputies found Lee Ann Bridges, 29, about 2 p.m. Sunday after they were sent to investigate an assault in the 400 block of South 3rd Street in Stowell, officials said.
Bridges had been attacked with a claw hammer wielded by Clifford Johnnie Sonnier, 24, Chambers County Sheriff's officials said.
She was flown by Life Flight helicopter to Memorial Hermann Hospital, where she underwent surgery to remove the claw hammer from her frontal lobe, authorities said.
Sonnier was taken into custody and has been charged with aggravated assault. He remains at the Chambers County Jail where he is held without bond.
Sheriff's officials in Chambers County did not release information about the motive for the attack.
On Monday, Bridges was listed in critical condition at the hospital, sheriff's officials said.

Remember the golden age of porn? That period in the '70s and '80s when you could walk into a movie theatre and watch emerging stars was a profoundly important part of our history. Never before had people become famous just for fucking, and they laid the foundation for what has become an immensely popular film genre. Without these groundbreaking pioneers, I might not have the job that I have today and we might not have as much access to porn as we do now. This is a world that I'm not sure I'd want to live in. Take a trip down memory lane and find all your favorite pornstars from the good old days at Retro Raw.
For my part, I look back with great fondness at superstars like Seka and Christy Canyon. I busted some of my first nuts to these beauties and spending time with them again was a wonderful experience. There are, of course, those who are not as familiar with the biggest names in porn and if you're one of those people, RetroRaw is an excellent place for you to get started on your history lesson.
Here's how it works: A new movie is added every month. Each movie has between five and 14 clips and you can download the clips individually. It seems like what they do is add a new clip every few days. My best estimate says that there about 1,200 individual scenes available to download right now.
You can download the scenes in a low or high-quality Windows Media format, the best of which is stellar-looking. You'll find many titles from the famed Swedish Erotica series as well as such classic films as The Adventures Of Supercock, The Millionaire's Wife and The Violation of Tori Welles. As this is a movie site, there are, of course, no pictures.
Included with your membership is access to Seventeen Live, where you can chat with horny chicks. On its own, Retro Raw is definitely worth it for those who are lovers of an era of porn that will never be repeated. With excellent-quality content and plenty of it, you definitely won't be disappointed.

A radical Muslim killed a soldier outside Canada's Parliament. A right-wing extremist opened fire on buildings in Texas' capital and tried to burn down the Mexican Consulate. An Al-Qaida-inspired assailant hacked an off-duty soldier to death in London.
Police said all three were terrorists and motivated by ideology. Authorities and family members said they may have been mentally ill. A growing body of research suggests they might well have been both.
New studies have challenged several decades of thinking that psychological problems are only a minor factor in the making of terrorists. The research has instead found a significant link between mental problems and "lone wolf" terrorism.
Now academics and law enforcement officials are working to turn that research into tools to prevent deadly attacks.
"It's never an either-or in terms of ideology versus mental illness," said Ramon Spaaij, a sociologist at Australia's Victoria University who conducted a major study, funded by the U.S. Justice Department, of lone wolf extremists. "It's a dangerous cocktail."

Yesterday I wrote about possible State Treasurer candidate Senator Randy Feenstra. Today I'm going to focus on his possible primary opponent, Dave Jamison.
Jamison is currently the Story County Treasurer and has been since 1995. He's known by most in the Republican circle for his work as a Republican State Central Committee Member. He's an Iowa State graduate in business management and a former Marine. Jamison also co-founded the Iowa Republican County Officials Association which helps Republicans get elected across the state. For any of you who have talked to him, you know he's just a really good guy.
Jamison is a very good Republican. He's been involved for years in helping other Republicans get elected. He's the type of guy who will do what's right without overtly running over the opposition. He's a fiscal and social conservative who, if he works hard enough, will be an excellent candidate for State Treasurer.
With his name on the primary ballot, alongside Feenstra's, we'll have a very competitive race for State Treasurer. I have to admit, I do wish they wouldn't primary each other. They are both good men and I'd hate to see them go after each other. Although, I don't think either will get down into the gutter with their campaigns.
It is shaping up to be a strong election year for Republicans. We have good candidates going after the statewide races. That's always a sign of a shift in momentum. We also have some excellent candidates down the ballot. But I'll get into that a little later in the election cycle.

Have you ever wondered what life is like for your friend who has a special needs child? Are you a special needs parent wondering if you're the only one who feels this way? Here are 27 things that special needs parents tend to think but not say out loud. This list comes from personal experience as an autism mom and from listening to the stories of others.
This isn't a woe-is-me post. It's meant to help others understand.
- "I'm sorry I don't have more to talk about besides my child." I'm spending hours researching possible therapies and treatment. I don't mean to bore you by talking about it all the time. That's just my world right now.
- "I don't want to research any more therapies or treatments." I'm content with what I'm doing. Please don't be offended if I'm not as excited as you are to hear about new treatments. I may also be just plain tired of research and need a break.
- "I don't have much to say." I want to hang out with you, but I'm too tired to think of anything to say, or I don't want to bore you (see #1).
- "I can't spend money on things you do." I don't have much money left over for fun extras like dinner out with friends, a pedicure, or a shopping spree. My money is tied up with supplements, treatments, special dietary needs, therapy items, etc.
- "I want to get together with friends, but I can't." This could be due to lack of funds (see #4), lack of time, lack of energy, or simple lack of a caregiver. I have a very difficult time finding a babysitter for my child.
- "I'm not whom I used to be." Parenting a special needs child changes your life. There are pros and cons to this. Things I once loved are intolerable for my child. I do not have time for old hobbies. My priorities and goals have changed. I've become bolder and braver as I've learned to advocate for my child.
- "I'm lonely." Special needs parenting can be lonely. I have an abundance of appointments. My child's sensory needs and myriad other things keep me from getting out with others. Sometimes my friends leave because they don't know how to deal with the situation. Honestly, sometimes I withdraw because, well, see #3, #5, #4, and #6.
- "I have to think ahead of different possibilities and plan for the various outcomes. I'm not trying to be a control freak." I have to think about where we are going and what we are doing. What will I do if he doesn't like the food? What if he thinks something is too loud? How will I handle it if he is overstimulated but I don't have my own car? People may look from the outside and think I'm trying to control every little thing. I'm just trying to plan ahead so I am prepared with what I need to handle the 107 different possible reactions that could happen.
- "Social situations exhaust me." While you sit on a bench at the playground and read, I watch like a hawk to see if my child is communicating with words instead of pushing when someone bothers him. Or, I'm watching to see if other kids are bullying. Or, I'm watching to make sure my child doesn't run off into traffic. Or, I'm watching to make sure my child doesn't eat wood chips. Or, I'm watching to make sure my child doesn't jump off the top of the playground equipment because he has no concept of safety. Or…
- "Some days I wish my child could eat what everyone else can eat." Packing up special foods to be able to attend events gets tiresome. So is packing up the gear my child needs.
- "Special occasions aren't fun for me." You may look at birthday parties and Christmas gatherings as fun. I look at them as exhausting. In addition to #8, #9, and #10, I have to consider how long my child can handle a situation, what others expect, how my child will react to things, and so much more. It's just not fun.
- "I get tired of the meltdowns." It's often hard to discern the difference between a tantrum and a meltdown. It's hard to admit I get tired of my child's behavior and wish it would just go away. It's hard to say I grow weary of dealing with the fallout that comes from stretching her.
- "It's hard for me to know the difference between hovering and helping." That's self-explanatory.
- "I don't want to debate my choice of ___." Insert education, therapy, treatment, etc. There are so many options and opinions out there on how to help a special needs child. I have done my research and testing. This is what we're doing for now.
- "I wish your child would be kinder to my child." Ouch.
- "If only I could figure out how to help my child and your child get along." Sometimes it's not a matter of bullying. Sometimes it's childhood and strong personalities and trying to determine how to explain to your child what my child experiences.
- "I don't know how to help my child." I've tried everything I know. I've run out of options.
- "I feel badly for my typical child." Special needs siblings are a special breed. They learn so much about how to be kind, compassionate, helpful, resilient, etc. But sometimes they often get the short end of the stick.
- "Please don't judge my house. I know it's a mess." When your kid screams over a drop of water on his pants, spots on the floor don't get top priority.
- "I worry about what will happen when I'm gone." How will she survive? Who will lift him? Who will feed her?
- "Sometimes I get jealous." I wish I could do what you do. I wish I had a nicer house. I wish I didn't have medical bills. I wish I could wear nice clothes. I wish…
- "I feel like a failure." My child still struggles with ___. I let him down when I didn't stand up for him soon enough. I should have taken her out of that situation sooner.
- "Occasionally I sit in a parked car by myself and cry." I get a few minutes alone and I don't have to let my child see me crying.
- "I need help." I cannot care for my other children and my special needs child and get it all done. I cannot keep her safe. I cannot keep the house clean when my son needs solace much of the day.
- "I don't want your pity." Kindness, assistance, compassion…yes. Pity, no.
- "I'm not a superhero." I'm just a just regular person doing the best I can. I will admit, some days I wear my Captain America t-shirt for a psychological boost.
- "Some days I want to give up."
Yes, sometimes I want to give up. But I won't.
So. Did I forget something? Let me know in the comments!

US soldier killed in Baghdad as new governing council decides to send delegation to UN
The new governing council of Iraq put off selecting a president Monday but voted to send a delegation to the U.N. Security Council. In the streets of the capital violence against U.S. forces erupted again, with one soldier killed in a rocket-propelled grenade attack.
At the close of its first full day of business, the council issued a statement that said the U.N. delegation would "assert and emphasize the role of the governing council as a legitimate Iraqi body during this transitional period."
Meanwhile, an American soldier was killed and four wounded in fighting in Iraq, the US military said Monday.
The soldiers were with the 3rd Infantry Division, which is charged with patrolling Baghdad, said Spc. Giovanni Llorente, a military spokesman, according to AP.
However, there were several blasts along the al-Khadra Highway in western Baghdad early Monday, said witnesses reported U.S. casualties.
Late Sunday, an explosion near a police station in a Baghdad suburb killed one Iraqi. The Associated Press reported Iraqi police believe the blast may have been a failed car bombing attack on the police station.
Local police said the station was full of US soldiers and Iraqi police at the time of the blast. A white Volkswagen was destroyed, and a headless body was found nearby. The body is thought to have been one of two men who were trying to get the explosive-packed car near the station.
In a related development, a group claiming to be an Iraqi branch of the al-Qaeda network said Sunday it, and not followers of Saddam Hussein, is behind the frequent attacks on US troops in Iraq. In a video broadcast on Al-Arabiya television channel, the group also warned of more attacks in the coming days.
The group called itself the Fallujah Branch of the Armed Islamic Movement for Al-Qaeda. "I swear by God no one from his (Saddam Hussein) followers carried out any jihad operations like he claims... they (attacks) are a result of our brothers in jihad," said the voice on the audio tape. (Albawaba.com)

Hey everyone, God Bless...You guys are the toughest motherfuckers I have ever had the pleasure of sharing a discussion board with. If you told me 4 days ago that I would be on the "Cancer Survivors Network" looking for ideas and stories, I would have dropped dead. Well, here I am. Everyone has really encouraging and inspiring stories and I feel a lot better already.
Today is Saturday, as of Wednesday I was in my PCP`s office having a strange lump on my testicle investigated. The lump has been accompanied with light pain and sensitivity here and there. I get some pain when righty bangs around too much. I told him all this. So I got my Ultrasound done on Wednesday afternoon. The nurse was HOTT. Having her rub warm stuff / photograph my testicles for ten minutes was the highlight of my week.
I really thought it was nothing...But I was wrong. The doc called on Friday and says its a tumor in my right testicle, and they are most likely taking the testicle out whether its cancerous or not! He has me seeing a Urologist first thing on Monday..and thats all I know. What happens next?!? If anyone cares to share a story or response of any kind, it would be very cool.

At the age of 28, I was diagnosed with "terato-carcinoma" aka embryonal testicular cancer of the left testicle in February of 1980, having the testicle removed in that month. The malignancy was detected in the lymph nodes on the inside of my spine in May of 1980, and I had ten of those removed. I underwent two years of combination chemotherapy (cisplatin, bleomycin, and vinblastin), and "knock-on-wood", have been clear ever since. My AFP tumor marker does test on the higher than normal side (7.0 - 13.0), but no further evidence of tumor has been detected in nearly 28 years. I still lose sleep anytime I test higher than the year before, but have learned to deal with the anxiety, even though I know that a few guys recur after 35 years.
I DID love those sponge baths, though!
Courage and Peace of Mind!

That you meet with the Urologist, & he'll most likely set up your surgery at that appt. Expect it to be rather soon, possibly by the end of the week.
The orchiectomy is a straightforward procedure, takes about an hour, post op discomfort isn't bad. Once they get the pathology reports from your tumor, they'll have a better idea of what you're up against, there are many different types of TC & treatment depends on which type(s) you have.
The best TC resource I've seen is the Testicular Cancer Resource Center:
You'll find the answer to all your questions there, but if not, just ask here.
Feb 25, 2010 - 12:13 am
Hey guys, thanks for the quick response and encouragement. I saw the Urologist on Monday, and was in a table having my nut removed on Tuesday afternoon. I actually didn`t respond well after the surgery. I thought I was ready to handle it...Boy was I wrong-when I woke up, I was in a bad place. I started to more or less freak out, and convinced myself I was in more pain than I really was. So they moved up my IV to a morphine equivalent, but after more complaining(by me).. I had too much of that and I wasn`t breathing well on my own because of over-sedation. Then they forced me to spend the night, and I continued to freak out. I am not proud of myself, and I am embarassed my family had to see me pull this ****.
I am still upset that this has happened, I was just having this thing initially looked at LAST WEDNESDAY!! And here I am, a week later with only one ball. How have you guys kept it together all these years? Are there any long term problems with only having one...i.e hair loss, or loss of big male muscles? I am worried I am losing my masculinity. Hope you guys can relate.
Feb 25, 2010 - 3:19 am
It was probably because you didn't have enough time to wrap your head around what was going to happen. Did you visit the Testicular Cancer Resource Center before you went in to surgery? The information there should help set your mind at ease.
In any event, one nut is all you need. I lost my first one 35 years ago at he age of 20 & I can still keep up with the young ones on the job site, & none of my sex partners through the years had any complaints, ( except my wife of 20+ years, she wishes I'd lose interest like she has) so no, there are no long term problems that I've encountered. You will be fine, once you come to terms with your fears.
You really need to concentrate now on what the pathology report shows. This will determine to a large extent the staging or your TC & what sort of further treatment you may need. You will probably also have a few more tests to go through. Again, go to the TCRC website where all the treatments, staging, testing, etc are explained in detail:
Keep us posted on your progress,

Removing the testicle wasn't as traumatic as I thought it would be. Removing the lymph nodes was something else I did not expect. I woke up from that surgery with a bunch of staples down my belly making me feel like a gutted perch. The combination chemo really made me nauseous and I puked like the possessed kid in the Exorcist. Anti-emetics were attempted, until it was discovered that I was allergic to the most effective medications, Compazine and Metaclopramide, which gave me dystonic reactions (loss of neuro-muscular control).
The hair will come back, along with your stamina. Just look at Lance Armstong, winning the Tour de France 7 times AND dating Sheryl Crow, among other gorgeous and talented celebrities.
I eventually had an implant to replace my missing testicle which actually felt better than the real one. One of my post-divorce girlfriends referred to it as "super ball"! Enough said?
Live Strong!
Feb 26, 2010 - 4:06 am
Thanks for the replies guys. Dave, you are dead-on about my reaction after surgery. It was too much to process at the time. Now that a few days have passed, I am comfortable with the idea that this portion of my body (my testicle) was sick, and had the potential to make the rest of my body sick. I am better off without it, and will certainly live longer having it removed. It had to be done. I like your sex drive Dave, you are a lot like me. I broke the world record... and masturbated a mere 36 hours after the surgery and ejaculated no problem (thank GOD). I had to know for my own peace of mind I guess.
Hey Rick, You had Chemo and Lymph Nodes removed? How big was your lump/tumor..And what stage was your cancer? I hope I caught mine early enough to avoid having these procedures done. I want to move on badly, However I will endure whatever I have to in order to prevent a return of this thing later in life. I lost my Dad to a brain tumor, don`t want that to happen to my kids. What is the likelihood of getting radiation for this?
-Brendan John
Feb 26, 2010 - 3:26 pm
Brendan, it's pretty rare for the orchiectomy to be the end of treatment, under the best of circumstances (stage 1 with non-aggressive cell type) the "treatment" could be " active surveillance" in which every month or two you get blood marker tests & a CT scan.
It all depends on what type of cells turn up in pathology and the results of some further testing you will likely have soon. I would expect you to be getting a test for tumor markers & probably a CT scan, based on my recent experience.
Radiation is useful if the cell type is a "seminoma" , if it is a "non seminoma" radiation is not effective. Go to that TCRC site I posted earlier, all this is spelled out in an easy to understand, but detailed way.
Feb 26, 2010 - 5:25 pm
Your specific diagnosis is the key to further treatment. Following the removal of my testicle and biopsy, my oncologist adopted a "wait and see" policy, until my tumor markers began to climb. I then had a liver scan, lung tomagram, and abdominal and pelvic CT scan, which indicated that two of my ten lymph nodes evidenced metastises. The chemotherapy served to destroy any remaining cancer cells.
Courage and Peace of Mind!
Feb 26, 2010 - 6:23 pm
Thanks again for the swift answers guys...Dave, I have been all over the TCRC website that you provided, thanks for the link to that. I am going to print out the pathology page, and bring it with me when I get my results on Thursday. This way, I can walk into the appointment with a strong idea of what the next step will be. Are you the author of that website? It is very helpful.
Rick, I have one blood test back that has been diagnosed as normal. Two more to go. I had a Cat scan or a CT scan...I am not sure what it was. Are those two the same thing? I had to lie down in a machine, and a circle apparatus whirled around me. I had to drink some stuff for two hours before-hand. What ever that was, the doctor came out and said I look fine. She said they were looking for tumors...Is this the same test that looks at my lymph nodes? Thanks again for all your help guys, I am going to refer back to the TCRC to figure out what test I have had so far. Also, the Lymph Node removal surgery looks BRUTAL. The big scar, possible damage to nerves...Anything (Including chemo) looks more pleasant than that.
-Brendan John
Feb 26, 2010 - 7:46 pm
"CT" and "CAT" scans are the same thing, and, you are right in assuming that they were examining your body for further evidence of tumor development. As I'm sure you read on the TCRC website, the lymph nodes are the most likely places for initial metastesis. The lymphatic system is like a superhighway for cancer cells. By tearing out the "road", you greatly reduce, but not eliminate, the opportunity for further tumor growth. If, and I do say, "if", your oncologist deems it necessary to follow up with chemo, it is only because he believes this is the best course of action for lessening the likelihood of recurrence.
None of these things are pleasant, but they sure as hell beat the alternative!
Courage and Peace of Mind!
Feb 26, 2010 - 8:28 pm
Of the TCRC website, just a big fan. It's so helpful to have all that info, explained so well. I can't think of a single question I had that wasn't answered there.
Did they inject a contrast dye when they did your CT? When they did mine they took one without & one with contrast.
Keep in mind that CT scans can really only confirm that you *do* have some cells that spread, they can't really give you a completely clean bill of health. They are not sensitive enough to see some things. In my case my CT scan didn't see "anything remarkable". A PET scan finally showed one lymph node that lit up.
The waiting can be the worst part of cancer. You may not know your difinitive diagnosis & treatment plan for a month or more. My surgery was on Dec 21 & I didn't start chemo until Feb 8.
Keep us posted on your progress.
Mar 04, 2010 - 6:42 pm
Hey what`s up guys..?
Well I got the pathology today. Looks like the tumor is non-seminoma (95% Embryonal Carcinoma). Hmmm..This mean anything to you guys? My research tells me this is not the "better" tumor to get. The report says that it is unlikely to have spread to the lymphatic system, which is encouraging. Also my CT scans look good, blood tests look good minus a higher level for the one that looks at your protein levels. What would you guys say I am up against? The RPLND? Or the Chemo? I am heading to Dana Farber (Boston) next Thursday to meet with an Oncologist.
-Brendan John
Mar 05, 2010 - 2:36 am
And I was told that embryonal cells tend to be aggressive. They are also somewhat more likely to spread via blood stream than other types. My urologist was pretty sure I'd need chemo just based on they type of cells. No test can 100% rule out the possibility of some cells having spread before your surgery.
That said, there is evidence that active surveillance might be an option. The studies I looked at indicate that in stage 1 cancers (like your's appears to be, at the moment), 50% will eventually develop further cancer, however if caught early by the active surveillance, the cure rate it the same as if you went through the chemo now.
My guess is your oncologist may want further testing. My CT showed "nothing significant" but also wasn't quite normal, so my onc ordered a PET scan, which showed one Lymph node involved, so I'm currently in week 4 of a 9 week chemo treatment.
You are in the "waiting he!!" period of your cancer. You won't know anything for sure for a while yet. Your onc will fill in a lot of blanks, but I'll be surprised if he doesn't order further testing before finalizing you stage of cancer.
Keep us posted as you learn more,
Apr 16, 2010 - 1:37 am
looks like you guys are about at the end of what I'm starting-BEPx3. Hope you're available to walk me through this.
Apr 21, 2010 - 9:07 pm
Brendan & Big Mike,
Guys, please read below, I hope this is helpful.
PLEASE e-mail me anytime firstname.lastname@example.com. Brendan I am curious to know who your oncologist at DF is.
Brendan, your in Boston? Me too. I was also treated treated at Dana Farber and I volunteer in the "one on one" program. The nurses and doctors there are great!!! They kept telling me that if you going to get cancer, this is the type you want to get (not that anyone wants to be diagnosed with it) because of the cure/treatment rate. After my PET scan, my oncologist told me my chances of it returning within 5 years is 2%, not a bad statisic!!
I am 42 with 3 kids, . hopefully this will help you out. It's recap of my recent experience and treatment.
My wife is also an oncolgy nurse at a Boston hospital, so I had that on my side.
Back is October 2009 I was also diagnosed with germ cell cancer, mixed seminoma / nonseminoma. I went to get my hernia checked, my PCF ordered a CT Scan of my lower abdomen and saw lymph nodes behind my pelivc bone were enlarged. Had a needle biopsy done in late October.
On the plus side it's good they found it somewhat early. It did not start in the testicles, so nothing needs to be removed, it started in my lower abdomen and spread to the lymph nodes. The biopsy came back as embryonic, After almost 2 months of researching my medical records, it was found that at birth I had an undescended testicle which my oncologist said is a precursor for testicular or germ cell cancer.
In Novemeber, just before Thanksgiving I started chemo, the first of 3 rounds of BEP. The chemo wasn't as bad as I thought, except for the wait gain, the hyperness from the decadron and the amount of fluid I got during chemo that made me urinate about every hour around the clock. I found the bleomycin infusion on day 9 and day 15 to be the worst, the after effects gave me flu like symptoms and fever for about 8 hours after a 15 minute treatment. Tylenol worked the best. Being in shape and in good health definitly helped me plow through the chemo treatment. The last couple of days of my 3rd cycle, the nausea caught up with me bit, so I kept taking the prescribed meds, they do work.
I just finished my 3rd and hopefully final round on 1/15, had a CT scan on 1/21, I see the oncologist this week to hopefully get some good news. If not maybe 1 more round of chemo or surgury to remove any lymph nodes that are suspect.
One thing that really helped was keeping a daily journal. Write down how you feel, what you eat, bathroom habits, how you sleep etc, bring it to your dr. appt's it will definitly help.
Eat alot of strawberries, rasberries, blackberries and the like, it helps with energy levels and antioxidents are good for cleansing. I also found that green tea helped. Some days after a cycle you may not feel like eating anything, but try to to eat smaller meals during the day instead of breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even if you don't feel like eating, eat something, your body needs it.
You will get very tired, but the bright side of that is you can nap anytime you want or go to bed as early as you need to. Your body will tell how much rest you need, trust me, before chemo, I ran 30 miles a week and played hockey 3 nights a week (played in college many years ago), I could get by on 5-6 hours now I need 10-12 of sleep. Now in April, my phyiscal strength is about 95%, it takes time for your body to regroup. I still get tired in the late afternoon. Instead of running I started to walked every day for about 30 minutes.
I started chemo on 11/19/2009 and my hair started to fall out in mid December, so I just shaved it off. During the winter I used to wear a winter hat to bed....LOL. Now it is almost fully grown back.
Back in late February I had a PET Scan and all was clear!!!! And no surgery is needed. And I go to keep righty and lefty. I go back in June for my 3 month follow up CT SCAN.
Picture yourself as prize fighter...put the gloves on, step in the ring and don't stop throwing punches until and you land the knockout punch.
My thoughts and prayers are with you guys.
Please keep me posted!!!!!
Apr 28, 2010 - 2:22 pm
Sounds like we had similar experiences w/ the treatment. Sleeplessness was the worst part until the Neulasta shot day 5 which gave me a knife-like headache for the weekend. Then my 1st booster made me as sick (chills)as I've ever been tho the meds kept me from throwing up.
Apr 29, 2010 - 8:53 am
That's what I called it, felt just like the flu for about 8 hours. On the 5 day cycle, I had bleo, cisplatin and etoposide on day one, day 2,3,4,5 had cisplatin and etopiside. Went back on day 9 and day 15 for bleo infusion. Day 21 would start the cycle all over again.
Neulasta to me seems like a "wonder drug", it kept the blood counts very high. It did work because my three kids are like walking petri dishes from the crap that catch at school.
Give the the strawberries, rasberries and blackberries and try. They do work, I am convinced that the fresh fruit and green tea helped me get through the chemo relativley well.
Did you have heartburn at all during chemo? I had it for the first 2 or 3 days of each cycle, but pepcid or prilosec did the trick. For the sleeplessness the ativan or a tylenol pm worked to knock me out for about 6 hours.
I actually played hockey on Tuesday night in a men's league and felt great. I have not played since early November '09 so my legs were like jello and I was in agony the next morning. I am running in a road race (3.2miles) on June 6th, I put a small team together to help raise money for cancer research.
Apr 29, 2010 - 10:41 am
Sounds like I'm on the same regimen. I've had a history of heartburn so yes it's been a slight issue. Went on Prilosec and it seems to help. For some reason I keep trying to get away from the nausea meds (constipation?)- maybe since they work so well I don't feel as tho I need them but keep going back to the Odanestron (Zephon?)at least 1 more time. How did you deal w/ it? The Doc was really impressed by my white cell count- seems like he enjoys having a little good news to hand out occasionally poor guy. Nobody ever told me Atavan was an option- I know I don't get it in my drip and my guy is more of a Melatonin type guy. Won't prescribe Ambien.
Apr 30, 2010 - 9:38 am
I had the same problem with the Zophran and constipation, but the amount of fruit I ate sort of off set it. You may want to try taking a stool softener, I did during the 2nd and 3rd round.
Funny sorry, well now it is, at the time I thought was going to die!!! I had finished my 1st round of chemo and was feeling great, I was still taking the zophran a few days after the treatment, I didn't need it but took it anyway (wy wife is a cancer nurse and made me take it to stay ahead of the nausea), I had a craving for buffalo chicken pizza so I ordered one for dinner, man it tasted good going down. About 2am I woke and thought someone had stabbed me in the stomach, the pressure down below was unbearable!!!!!! The chesse from the pizza interacted with the zophran and bound me up something fierce. I called my onc nurse and she said to take a stool softener and drink a glass of Miralax, this was about 7:30am, so I did. About 2 o'clock that afternoon, I thought the world was coming to an end!!! I never thought having a BM could feel so good, I know it's gross, but sort of funny now.
I had melatonin as well. Ativan is precription, pill form, used as an anti-nausea med but does make you sleepy, I found it helpful at night when I couldn't sleep.
During cycles I felt great so if I didn't need the meds I didn't take them.
On my treatment days I would go in early, about 6:30am, I live about 15min. from Dana Farber, so I would be hooked up with the hydration fluid by 7:30, chemo infusions would start around 9:30, so I would be out by 1 or 2pm.
Apr 30, 2010 - 11:59 am
I don't think I've ever been constipated in my life and it's amazing what a big role it seems to play in my life now. Not a favorite topic of discussion for others I'm sure. Been taking a stool softener but it seems like a fine line sometimes between the alternatives. Finally on day 10 I felt 'regular' again tho it was pretty much controlable the whole time once I got the hang of it.
Apr 30, 2010 - 12:05 pm
Glad to hear a success story re: chemo w/out a RPLNG followup. My guy says that's what we're going for but hadn't heard from too many people who didn't have it. Scares the heck outa' me.

High time for a re-dedication ...
I have from now until sundown on the 7th of January to create the schematics for a more successful personal and spiritual 2017.
It's going to begin with my FlameKeeper practice ... a re-dedication to maintaining Brid's flame but taking it further into a devotional practice than the casual lighting of a candle at sundown every twentieth day.
To that end ... I have moved myself from the 3rd shift, Mulberry cill at Ord Brighideach laterally to the 3rd shift, Rose cill (incidentally filling the only vacancy available in the cill I'd originally wanted to join but couldn't as there hadn't been an opening at that time ... so it's one of those 'meant to be' things).
I intend to actually hold vigil instead of just making certain that the candle is lit at the right time and then going about my mundane business ... with sacred work (most likely spinning ... unless something else is required such as Crafting for a specific purpose or a specific person) and active prayer basket being done during that time.
I also wish to create a series of daily and weekly tasks to perform ... with a view to training myself further into consistency and discipline. And that means that I need at least two things to begin with tomorrow ... one that I will be doing on a regular basis daily and one that I will be doing weekly.
The weekly one, I know what to do.
A good many years ago, a dear friend and I agreed to work together to generate one divinatory deck of cards each. We were supposed to agree upon a few common elements for each card and then run with it to create something that uniquely expressed ourselves. But, because we are both very good at letting things get away from us, the project fell by the wayside. The idea of it, however, never left my memory and often returns to me unbidden.
That makes it the perfect project to work with on a weekly basis ... once a week, I will chose a card at random and then spend time each day for the next seven days working on what meanings, interpretations and imagery I want to incorporate into it. I'm a dreadful artist (my stick figures look sickly XD ) but, once I have the full write up for each of the 78 cards, I will then proceed to creating the image for the card face ... I even have an idea for that coming from the perspective of one for whom printed words have more impact that pretty pictures.
78 cards at one per week times two would mean that this project ought to take almost exactly 3 years to go from the beginning implementation in my head to an end product ready for printing. And, just because my OCD tic carries in multiples of 3 being magically charged ... 7+8=15 ... 1+5=6 ... which gives me the remaining numbers to bring the whole thing up to a cosmically charged 9 (but only when you do evil-math my way ... which has nothing to do with actual mathematics ;p )
Wow .. the numbers are right for this one so I guess I really do have to do it :D
The daily practice is a bit tougher for me to figure out ... I have ideas that are bouncing off each other but nothing that is really sticking out as needing to be IT.
I have until I open my eyes tomorrow morning to figure that one out ... let's see what I can come up with, eh?
I need one of those giant calendars that I can write on and reuse, methinks.
The Bean Tighe (pronounced ban tig) is a helpful spirit that is likely one of the inspirations for the "fairy godmother" type donor/patron from faerie and folk tales. She is the one who makes it possible for others to achieve their potential ... whether it be helping with the maintenance of one's home, one's finances, or the ability to make one's dreams come true.

- The combative attorney President Donald Trump picked as his ambassador to Israel sought to fix the damage from past attacks on political opponents, telling Congress he deeply regretted using inflammatory language and promised to be "respectful and measured" should he be confirmed.
The committee is scheduled to meet Thursday for Friedman's confirmation hearing. "These were hurtful words and I deeply regret them, they were not reflective of my nature or my character".
Friedman is a strong supporter of Israeli settlements and opposes Palestinian statehood. He has also raised millions of dollars toward settlements, including one near the Palestinian city of Ramallah. Friedman replied that he would support either a two-state solution in which Israel was recognized as a Jewish state, or a one-state solution in which all that state's inhabitants and residents would enjoy equal civil rights.
A shift in USA policy toward Israel has already begun. He specifically mentioned an exchange with Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO of the anti-Defamation league, which he called a bunch of "morons".
"I'm looking at two-state and one-state, and I like the one that both parties like", Trump said.
Trump, during a White House news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, was evasive about endorsing a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
The letter calls on either the president to withdraw the nomination or the Senate to reject Friedman's bid if Trump is unwilling to take such an action. He asked him to clarify why he's willing to reverse himself on so many previous statements.
Yoni Fromwitz, who works at the Tefillin factory in Beit El, said he believes Friedman will keep his personal feelings in check if he becomes ambassador. "If you want me to rationalize it or justify it, I can not. There's nothing more important to me than strengthening the bonds between the United States and Israel".
"We are concerned that Mr Friedman strongly disagrees". He got into a discussion with Senator Cory Booker about the difference between apology and atonement after agreeing that Tim Kaine wasn't an Israel basher and that former President Obama wasn't an actual anti-Semite.
Udall went on to call Friedman "completely unfit for this or any other diplomatic office". Friedman expressed regret for this comparison in his opening statement. He described Friedman as "someone who knows Israel because he was here - not because he read the newspapers that the Arab population is very good at using on their side". "You do not represent us and you will never represent us", one protester shouted.
"First of all, the two-state solution is what we support", Nikki Haley, US ambassador to the United Nations, told a gaggle with reporters on Thursday.
Such views are unprecedented for USA ambassadors to Israel, who in the past, whether from Republican or Democratic administrations, have avoided travel to settlements.
Among the ambassadors who signed the letter were Thomas Pickering, who was ambassador to Israel under President Ronald Reagan; William Harrop, who was posted to Israel in the George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton administrations; Edward Walker, who also served under Clinton; Daniel Kurtzer, who served under George W. Bush; and James Cunningham, who was ambassador under Bush 43 and Obama.
"I don't think anyone would support a state where different classes of citizens had separate rights", Trump's nominee stated, according to Haaretz.

Currie - Round 4 review
In-form Griquas extend unbeaten run
July 29, 2009
Naas Olivier starred for the Griquas in Johannesburg © Getty Images
The Griquas continued their stunning early season form in Johannesburg on Friday, winning their fourth game of the Currie Cup season 23-19 against the second-placed Golden Lions.
The only unbeaten side in the tournament, the Griquas raced in to a 20-7 half-time lead thanks to tries from fly-half Naas Olivier and centre Barry Geel, with their forward pack dominating the breakdown.
Olivier's try came after a fine breakout from their 22, with Herkie Kruger failing to deal with a grubber and allowing Olivier to kick the ball over the line and finish. Geel crossed soon after, following a concerted period of pressure in Lions' territory.
Alwyn Hollenbach rounded off an interception by Earl Rose to register the first points for the home side, but Olivier's boot extended the Griquas' lead before the break. Kruger drew the Lions back in to contention with three penalties, but their hopes were effectively ended when Walter Venter saw yellow for a late tackle.
Riaan Viljoen extended the visitors' lead, and while Kruger landed another penalty to set up a grandstand finish, the Griquas were good value for their latest victory.
In Bloemfontein, the Cheetahs' miserable season continued with a 21-12 loss to the Natal Sharks. In atrocious conditions, both sides made errors, Jacques-Louis Potgieter giving the Cheetahs an early lead with a penalty after the Sharks were guilty of shovelling the ball back through a scrum.
Rory Kockott drew the visitors level following a multiple-phase move that showed fine patience, and the Sharks scrum-half was on target with a stunning drop-goal to give his side the lead moments later.
Potgieter was the match of the Sharks man, though, landing two further penalties before the break with Kockott scoring one of his own for a half-time score of 9-9.
Kockott banged over another penalty ten minutes after the break, and was dead-eyed with two further efforts to open up a handy nine-point lead going in to the final quarter. Potgieter was again on target to draw the Cheetahs back to within a converted score as both sides struggled to eradicate their high penalty counts in tricky conditions.
However, replacement fly-half Monty Dumont sealed the game for the Sharks, hammering a penalty between the uprights from inside his own half as the final minutes ticked down.
Also on Friday, the Blue Bulls comfortably saw off the challenge of Boland Cavaliers 43-11 in Pretoria. Bulls fly-half Francois Brummer and his opposite number Elgar Watts traded penalties early on, with the first try coming following a yellow-card for Boland tight-head Jacobie Adriaanse.
With the man advantage, the Bulls attacked from the base of a scrum, the ball finding Gerhard van den Heever on the blindside to cross in the corner. Brummer converted from out wide before centre Jaco Pretorius rounded off a stunning break by Marius Delport to score his first Bulls Currie Cup try and put his side firmly in control at 17-3.
Van den Heever bagged his second of the night before the half-time whistle, again exploiting the space created by an attacking scrum. The Bulls had their fourth try only moments after the restart thanks to Flip van der Merwe, while Watts scored a second penalty for the increasingly ragged visitors. Gurthro Steenkamp rumbled over for the Bulls' fifth not long after and almost immediately after replacement fly-half Burton Francis was converting their sixth from Jacques Burger.
Boland had a consolation try before the end, but their evening was to end on a low as Delport scored the Bulls' seventh try to bring up their half-century.
Western Province skipper Luke Watson led from the front at Newlands, crossing for a hat-trick as his side defeated the Leopards 43-7. Province now move in to the top three of the table behind the Griquas and Blues Bulls, their only blemish so far this season coming against the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld.
Willem De Waal, superb all season for the Cape Town side, finished with a personal haul of 18 points including a try, penalty and five conversions. On the night there were also tries for Gio Aplon, Pieter Louw and the returning Joe Pietersen as 10,000 fans celebrated their team's first bonus-point win of the season.
Deon van Rensburg crossed for the Leopards' only try on an evening when they looked outclassed by their big-hitting opponents.

I spent a good long time looking at Water Lilies (c. 1920) by Claude Monet this weekend at the MoMA. I've seen reproductions of this and other similarly themed works by the painter, but don't recall ever looking at it in person. I usually think of Monet as more of a late 19th-century impressionist than one of those whose work more clearly points toward the coming wave of modernism, but this triptych which takes up an entire wall in the gallery, and used to hang out in the atrium during a previous rotation in the new building really made me rethink that idea.
Yes, it's representational to some degree; you can point out the lilies, etc. But the way it plays with your expectations about what it's depicting surface or underwater? sky or reflection of sky? lily or light on the water? seems a good deal deeper and more challenging than some of his earlier and more placid works. There's a great quote at the end of the audio guide for this painting; unfortunately, it wasn't so great that I remember it, word for word, but it's about the first impression a viewer had upon seeing the work how it evoked for him the primordial soup of ancient days, of what it might've been like to witness one scene in the creation of the world.

Bolster your in-river balance For every cubic foot per second scheming to send you sideways, Simms' 7075 Aluminum Wading Staff offers a balance-enhancing solution. The durable, 4-section staff has a locking detent button and includes an adjustable FastLock system for customizable lengths between 51 and 56 inches. Contoured, TPR molded handles deliver surefire grip in the heat of battle. And an ergonomic strap system features a quick-release mechanism for added safety. Neoprene sheath comes standard.

This staff doesn't have the major problem of my previous Folstaf staff: refolding it after use. The segments of my Folstaf would often stick together requiring significant effort to get them to separate Although I found the Simms staff awkward to assemble at first compared to the Folstaf, after using it for a few outings I was able to learn how best to manage it. Now I can quickly assemble the staff (easier on land than in water) and, so far, I have had no problems with segments sticking together. Once assembled it is light but sturdy. It does the job.

I prefer the older model. Less complicated, more compact and easier to use than this new model. The additional height is nice but Simms should have just lengthened the older one if that was the design. The label says not intended for full body weight so take notice on that warring. A wading staff is for situations where a staff is needed for body support and not just a light weight walking stick for calm water. Wish Simms would design a stout stick for problematic wading. How about breaking the aluminum tradition and market a good hickory wooden stick that is dependable. Bet a wooden stick would be a hit on the market as most guys use a staff to keep from falling.

As stated in other reviews, the holster is hard to use wet air dry. I was using mine in Oregon where the streams and rivers are like walking on bowling balls. The very first that I used the staff the locking pin broke off. I figured out that if I tighten the locking clamp that I could keep the staff from coming apart. The staff doesn't assemble and disassemble as easily as the original. My first Simms staff was simple to assemble, I just pulled it and pulled the handle its stop and everything locked together Reversing the aforementioned steps and it came apart. The new one is hard to disassemble. It is almost as if the cord is too short and then because of the way the handle sticks out of the holster it is hard to tell if the staff is folded up correctly.

Pluses. Ease of assembly,variable height.Grip good
Minuses. Sections tend to open when caught in mud or stuck in rocks.Holster is a real pain.Staff can be awkward to remove when holster wet.Staff sticks well above holster so it rotates on my belt making removal more difficult and uncomfortable and staff more likely to fall out.Hard to disassemble especially when in water.

I have been using this staff now for about two years. I have had a very different experience than some of the other users. I find the staff extends and retracts with ease, durability has not been an issue (I am 235 lbs.), fits nicely in the Neoprene sheath and works great with the wading staff retractor, which is a must have addition. I tend to extend it and allow it to drag behind me and grab it when needed. It never seems to be in the way of my line, etc., but in my opinion is a must have safety option. I would not hesitate in recommending this product to others.

Rebecca, 4/10/2016
I used the former style of wading staff and within the first year of use it would not retract, and happily Simms sent me a replacement - which is this new model. This one feels sturdier than the previous and I like the grip and adjusting height. (And they sent me a retractor, which was very nice, and useful of course). However, it is about impossible to get this staff to link together and lock without a lot of fussing. The locking pin rarely lines up right, and if often lost in the shaft somewhere - leading to loosening the whole rig, pulling it to snap together, still not getting pin to align; repeat, repeat. It seems a design flaw and I hope you (Simms) can refine this otherwise good staff.

I haven't used it yet--it seems decent enough as to function but it's a real pain the neck to break it down. You could very well fall just trying to do that.

I own several Simms products (waders, boots, jacket, and older waiting staff) and have always been satisfied. When I got this one in the mail, I was shock at how flimsy it is and how it is isn't just doesn't work well. It's hard to break down and then reset up. I haven't fished with this yet, so it may be unfair. . .but trying to use this while in a current, then stopping to fish, and then moving (which is what a wading staff is for!), I'm not sure I'd trust this. Simply put, do not buy.
[Response from Simms Customer Care Team]
tdd4k, thank you for your review. If have any questions in regards to your wading staff, we would be more than happy to chat. Please feel free to give us a call at 1-800-217-4667 or email us at [email protected]

Let me prefice this by saying that I have been a loyal customer to Simms for the past 20 years. I, like many others, have known Simms to be a company that offers quality products and backs their products no matter what. While this staff has performed well when it is in working order, the aluminum that was used in the build is weak and subject to failure. This staff did not even last me a year before falling apart. I expect quality from a staff of this value from a company like Simms. Unfortunately, I was disappointed about this item and will likely go elsewhere for a new staff.

DavedD , 12/24/2014
When planning a trip to Haida Gwaii I read a few reports about rivers stained with the tannins from the Cedar trees. Visibility, for humans, was apparently quite low and the commenter suggested a wading staff.
I like Simms products so I decided on this staff and bought it. I was wading out to a gravel bar and decided to try the staff. Once I had used it for a short time I was asking myself why I didn't buy this 10 years ago. It wasn't long and I was using the staff in the river, in the old growth, and even walking down the trail. Once I assembled it I used it all day. I'm fairly young and in decent shape...still, this thing is great.
The retractor is a must if you don't have one. When casting the staff is downstream and there when you need it. No tangles in the line and no issue when fighting big Steelhead. The system works well.
Ironic though - the safety sticker that says do not remove.....comes off on its own.

The goals of the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) are (1) to understand the radiation balance between the Sun, Earth, atmosphere, and space and (2) to establish an accurate, long-term baseline data set for detection of climate changes. Earth Radiation Budget (ERB) data are fundamental to the development of realistic climate models and to the understanding of natural and anthropogenic perturbations of the climate system. As part of ERBE, measurements of broadband shortwave radiation reflected from the Earth-atmosphere system were obtained, from which top of atmosphere albedo values were calculated. In addition, values from scenes determined to be free of clouds were analyzed separately and clear-sky albedos were derived.For this study, only the clear-sky albedos are included. The ERBE data sets for the International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project (ISLSCP) Initiative II contain global, top of atmosphere, clear sky albedo data from January 1986 to February 1990. The original ERBE albedo data at 2.5 degree spatial resolution were re-gridded to a 1 degree spatial resolution by the ISLSCP II staff.

Hypertensive experiencing Headaches after Workouts.
Patient : Yesterday, I attended a zumba class I felt really well. However, almost 30 mins to an hour I started noticing a slight headache coming on and as time went by it began to get wros and wrost. This is not the first time thishas happen, it happens every time I do any tjpey of exercise. I am also on a blood pressure pill
Doctor : In my opinion it seems that you are experiencing an exercise headache. Though most of the time these headaches are benig n and go off on its own. In your case the underlying hypertension may be a factor causing the headache. I would suggest that you consult your doctor for appropriate investigations to look for any serious underlying cause of the headaches.

At minimum, good network management today can accurately isolate where a problem is occurring in large distributed environments, often pinpointing specific servers or exposing chatty application design.
The real-time rise of real-time: Application flow management across the network is increasingly being done in real-time, or near real-time. This is because unlike traditional, component-centric network performance management, it doesnt require polling.
The rise of configuration management: In part because of the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and its emphasis on configuration management (meaning visibility into configuration and topological change) as an enabler for all management disciplines, network configuration capabilities are becoming increasingly strategic for IT buyers. The multi-purpose benefits of good configuration management tools to help automate change, as well as to support more effective diagnostics, compliance, security, asset management and other disciplines represents a breakthrough in both network management and in the industry at large.
OSS to IT: Operation support systems (OSS) as used by classic telecommunications providers are beginning to look at IT best-practices such as ITIL, and more conscious support for application delivery services.
In parallel, IT organizations are increasingly beginning to adopt a more service provider-like posture with a focus on measurable accountability and quality. These commonalities are also causing cross currents in the market that are allowing vendors to repurpose innovations targeted at one set of buyers to serve the othertypically at different levels of scalability and different price points.
The famous American novelist, Nathaniel West, when confronted with a poetry magazine called Transition populated by the ill-conceived writing of pampered starlets was asked to comment on the quality of the contents. His reply, arguably the single fastest uptake in the history of American literary discourse was, All I can say is Transition spelled backwards is no it isn art.
But the network management marketplace is transitioning to something better; difficult though it is to see through all of its complexity. Perhaps the core to appreciating this brave new world is to focus on the deconstruction and reconstruction along the lines of correlation and analytics, or more advanced discovery now visible within some of the more enlightened platform architectural strategies.
Investing in network management is no longer just about managing networking hardware. Its about investing in extensible technologies that may be applied in application and service management, change and configuration management, discovery and asset management, security and compliance, just to mention a few areas.

Bluewater Productions has announced several new series based on Darren G. Davis's 10th Muse.
To mark the project's tenth anniversary, the publisher will release 10th Muse: Crossovers next month. The graphic novel will feature cameo appearances from other well known comics characters, including Shi, Savage Dragon, Tellos, Ezra, Legend of Isis and Judo Girl.
The book will also showcase the work of high-profile creators, such as Billy Tucci, Erik Larsen, Marv Wolfman, Roger Cruz and Mike Wieringo.
"You never forget your first love," said Bluewater president and series creator Davis. "10th Muse put us on the map and I've been waiting for the right time to bring her back."
In June, the publisher will issue the 10th Muse Cover Gallery, featuring the artwork of Randy Green, Andy Park, Mike Wieringo, Stephen Platt and Roger Cruz. This will be followed by an ongoing monthly series and two special miniseries.
"We've got a lot of great ideas brewing, but I want the series to recapture the flavour of the original run. It won't be a series reboot or a continuation with another character as the Muse," Davis added. "I want Emma Sonnet fighting bad guys in the courtroom and her alter ego taking on the likes of Aries, Hera and other ne'r-do-wells on Olympus."
Telling the tale of a modern-day daughter of the Greek god Zeus, 10th Muse debuted in 2000 through Image Comics.

First the good: the data is top notch, about as good as you can get as an amateur. The the bad: the interface is pretty clunky. The data displays leave much white space around the edges of the frame, and needlessly reduce the font size to squeeze it all in. Finally the ugly: the new format for displaying data is, shall we say lacking. So lacking that it downright sucks. In the old app you could look at a bunch of clearly labeled data table lines, in the new app you have to guess what is high/mid/low clouds. Gone is the graphical display as well as projected rainfall amounts. These should be brought back.

For the past several days, late July more closely resembled late September across the eastern U.S.. But as early August begins, it will feel like August as the extreme jet stream pattern that directed polar air into the mid-latitudes relaxes.
The animation below shows a radical transformation in the jet stream pattern over the next several days. The huge dip in the jet stream over the East surely and steadily flattens.
As a result, rather than northerly flow from polar regions over the eastern U.S., the air streams more from west to east – which is a lot more characteristic for mid-summer. Notice how the deep blues and greens – representing an unusually intense pool of cold air at high altitudes – vanish over the East, signaling a return to a near normal temperature regime.
It was this cold pool that resulted in temperatures averaging 10 to 20 degrees below normal since Monday over the eastern U.S.. Look at all the record lows and near-record lows from Wednesday morning:
Record lows were set or tied Wednesday in Atlanta, Baltimore (BWI Airport), Washington, D.C. (Dulles Airport), Birmingham, Tallahassee, Nashville and Pittsburgh among dozens of other locations.
Wednesday's temperature difference from average is shown in the map below:
Lest anyone be misled that this recent cool spell signifies the Earth is going into an ice age and that we're having a year without a summer, notice how warm it was in north central Canada on the warm side of the see-saw-like jet stream pattern.
The repeated spells of much cooler than normal air in the eastern U.S. this July reflects a continuation of state of affairs since the start of the calendar year.
Related: The eastern United States: A lonely cold pocket on a feverish planet | Eastern U.S.: Coldest spot on Earth so far in 2014
Cold air outbreaks have afflicted (or in the case of this summer, delighted) the eastern North America repeatedly making it the coldest region of the world, relative to average.
Even as the cool pattern eases over the next several days and temperatures trend towards normal, long-range forecasts offer no signs of extreme heat. Rather, they favor below normal temperatures in the central U.S. which could eventually bleed once again towards the East Coast.
The question of whether this pattern will carry into winter keeps coming up. The answer is we simply don't know (although there are some tentative indicators that point that way).
