Pulmonary fibrosis is shortening survival and impairing quality of life in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) as well as in other connective tissue diseases. The impact of historically available and newer biologic therapies in altering the outcome of RA with pulmonary fibrosis (RA-ILD) is unknown; translational studies focused on the pathobiology and clinical studies focused on the treatment of RA-ILD are needed. Bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are being considered as potential therapeutic agents in various inflammatory autoimmune diseases for their tissue-repair and anti-inflammatory tissue-protective properties. This study investigates the reserves and function, the molecular and proteomic profile and the differentiation potential of BM MSCs in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) without lung involvement and RA-ILD.
BM MSCs were studied in 10 healthy controls, 8 patients with rheumatoid arthritis without lung involvement and 8 patients with RA-ILD. MSCs were identified by their immunophenotypic characteristics and their potential to differentiate towards adipocytes/osteocytes/chondrocytes. We evaluated the mRNA expression of genes involved in the lung injury of pulmonary fibrosis, such as the axis of stromal-cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1α)/CXCR4 in BM MSCs using quantitative RT-PCR.
The BM MSCs of RA and RA-ILD patients displayed normal immunophenotypic characteristics and differentiation potential. The biological axis of SDF-1a-CXCR4 has not been expressed in rheumatoid arthritis without lung involvement. A significant increase in SDF-1a-CXCR4 mRNA expression was detected in RA-ILD compared to controls.
The distinct SDF-1α- CXCR4 expression by RA-ILD MSCs in comparison to RA maybe explain the better prognosis of the latter group of patients.
These preliminary findings could have implications in developping more targeted therapies for RA-ILD.

What's On My Playlist: April 2015/
This weekend we celebrated our dear friends Frank & Sarah, who asked Jacob and I to say a few words during the ceremony on long-lasting love and relationships. As we were mulling over what we'd say, the very true fact that I've listened to Trap Queen probably 3000 times in the last month came to light. Haha! I'm a creature of habit to a fault, what can I say.
Since then I've made it a point to try and find new music to listen to every day. I love Spotify's Browse function for this, and will peruse the various featured playlists for something to fit my mood. I've found myself gravitating to a lot of indie, folk & blues, but as you'll see below, I'm into a bit of everything. Not just hip-hop, I promise!
What's on your playlist? Leave me a comment, I'd love to know!

Impact of Body Mass Index on In Vitro Fertilization Outcomes
DOI: 10.1023/B:JARG.0000040236.68523.6f
- Cite this article as:
- Frattarelli, J.L. & Kodama, C.L. J Assist Reprod Genet (2004) 21: 211. doi:10.1023/B:JARG.0000040236.68523.6f
Purpose: To determine if body mass index (BMI) impacts IVF outcome.
Methods: Retrospective, cohort study. Main outcome measure was number of oocytes obtained.
Results: BMI did not correlate with the prestimulation parameters. There was a significant positive correlation between BMI and the number of follicles on ultrasound prior to egg retrieval. A threshold analysis revealed a significant change in parameters at a BMI > 24 kg/m2. Patients with BMI > 24 kg/m2 demonstrated a significant increase in the number of follicles after stimulation (p = 0.03) and a comparative decrease in the number ampules of gonadotropins used (p = 0.04) and days of stimulation required (p = 0.01).
Conclusion: These data demonstrated that an elevated BMI significantly correlates with the number of follicles, days of stimulation, and number of ampules of gonadotropins used. Further correlation to an actual increase in number of oocytes and pregnancy rates may be limited by insufficient power in this study.

OP: Thanks for the concern. FYI, here's what I do:
I've got permits from two states, with overlapping periods, that are both recognized in my state, so one can always fill in for the other if the other is awaiting renewal.
I also have warning events programmed into iCal on my Mac computers, so that reminders will pop up in plenty of time to start the renewal process.
In the heat of the moment, what matters is what your body knows -- not what your mind knows.
In Florida they send the reminder in the mail. They want the fees so they make sure to send the renewal form.

Traumatic brain injury in Denmark 1979–1996. A national study of incidenceand mortality

In order to describe and analyse the development of the incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Denmark for different age groups of the two genders from 1979 through 1993 (for fatal injuries through 1996), a computerised search corresponding to diagnoses ICD 8th ed., 800, 801, 803, 850–854 from 1979 through 1993 was carried through in the national hospital register. Each person was counted only once, according to the most serious injury during the study period. For fatal cases, the search was extended till 1996. From 1979–1981 to 1991–1993, the total age-adjusted incidence of persons hospitalised under diagnoses ICD 800, 801, 803, 850–854 decreased 41% from 265 to 157 per 100,000 of the population per year. Decreases were 42% for ICD 850, brain concussion, 56% for ICD 800, 801, 803, cranial fractures, and 16% for ICD 851–854, structural brain injury. The percentage of cases with ICD 851–854 increased from 8.4 to 11.7% of the total. From 1979–1981 to 1985–1987 there was a 2% decrease in fatal TBI in and outside hospital (from 14.68 to 14.35 per 100,000), against a total 27% decrease to 10.67 in 1994–1996. For diagnoses ICD 851–854 and for fatal cases, significantly accelerating decreases from 1985–1987 were found only for the younger age groups. Consequently, in the period from 1979 to 1993, the mean age at injury increased by 10 years for persons hospitalised under diagnoses ICD 851–854. Decreases may be explained partly by changing admission and other hospital practices, and partly by the effect of comprehensive national preventive programs launched at the middle of the study period, the effect of which seemed to vary by age group and gender.

Only two downfalls: first DO NOT drink the tap water. It is over loaded with chlorine. You can smell it and most definitely taste it. It's so strong that some folks have reported becoming ill. Second is there are a few people who like to leave their poor dogs locked up in cages outside and they leave them there all day. Not only do these dogs spend the day barking (which is very annoying to non pet owners) they have no food, water or shelter. The rules are very clear that you're not to do this but some people still do. The office takes the complaints very seriously. There were absolutely no mosquitoes. Bring some ear plugs and bottled water and this place is almost paradise. We will definitely be back!!

I was here with high hopes, the location was great just south of Ventura, on the beach, Navy Base. But after my trip I feel compelled to say what was not mentioned in previous reviews about this place. First the campsite employees. Maurice is great and so were some of the veteran ladies working in the office. But then there were the young and inexperienced few that could not tell us the hours of the laundry facilities, when I asked them they just said I don't know and made no effort to get an answer. Front office. They do. It have a reservation POS or software to de conflict people moving their trailers everyday. I was there for four night and I moved my trailer three times to three different sites. There is zero effort from the employees to deconflict this disappointing experience. Campsites. One thing that made moving every morning was the campsite design. It has very narrow one way roads the straight back in sites only. Talk about a pain in the butt to get into, and you have that to look forward to every dam morning. Mosquitos. The campground in right on the beach, but behind it and all up the coast to the north is stagnate water marshes that produce Mosquitos by the hordes. You get eaten alive once the sun goes down. They always find a way inside our trailer and feasted at night. Everyone on my trip had over 50 bites from head to toe that itch still after a week. This is the reason I will not return, you cannot escape the Mosquitos. Last thing is the beach. If you are expecting to have some fun in the waves, this is the wrong beach. There are no waves to ride even a body board on.. Just slippers that crash into the sand. I was expecting something better or just some kind of wave I could let my kids ride a boozy board on. Not here.
5-9 February 2015
Due to renovations, reception was in a trailer on site versus in the beach motel. Fellow campers friendly and pleasant. Beautiful beachfront. Nice wilderness area (salt estuary). Stayed in site 151. Great cable connections. Old electric connections but effective. Quiet location; easy to get to; Las Posas gate open only from 6AM to 6PM; use Mugu Rd gate during off hours and weekends. Pick up a base map upon check in for orientation purposes. Will definitely come back!
Jan 8-12, 2014
Enjoyed our stay, especially since on the ocean. Quiet area. We did see signs of homesteading and think they need to do some clean up around a few of the campers. Campground needs upgrades, everything works, just electric panels only have one plug in and are ancient. Hotel closed for renovations and like other poster check in is in trailer. Staff was very polite and helpful. Would stay again. Didn't use restrooms. Also wish they would change 2 pet limit, they aren't following the other rules so do away with this one and if pets are an issue kick the offender out. My 4 are better than most peoples 1.
December 13-23, 2014
J.C. left this review using the Directory software: - Campground is still open, but motel is closed for renovation. Registration is now in a trailer in site 103. Washing machines are gone. I was told if we needed a washer/dryer, there are some located in active duty housing area. You will need directions. This is our third year here, still enjoy Point Mugu. There are picnic tables and fire rings by the sites. Remember if you are over 40 feet, you will want sites 155-159 or the 200 numbered sites.
28-31 March 2014
Very nice location. Anywhere you can stay next to the water always makes for a great stay. The staff were extremely professional, as well as polite. The only downfall that had nothing to do with the overall facility was the windy weather that was cold. That just had to do with the season. Other than that the place is absolutely worth it.
July 2014
Absolutely loved our stay!! Very fortunate to have gotten site 118 which opens to the beach. Watched dolphins and seals from camper while eating breakfast and lunch. Sites are close but better than other beach locations we have visited. Active runway with random check flights going at different times of day and evening. Engine runup near campground during our visit. Free laundry..small NEX facility but well stocked for essentials. Free movies on weekend. Had an issue with extending our stay but was resolved to our satisfaction. Good location for visiting local area north or south.
June 27, 2014
Gorgeous beach, saw people catching fish. Spots are tight and map on site is outdated. There is also a lagoon for tenters. Only problem was we had to go through main gate because we arrived after 6 pm and despite base sticker, civilian at gate was very rude and disrespectful when asked simple questions and responded, I kid you not, by saying things like "you are blocking traffic" (nobody was behind me) and "you got it?" Small exchange and beach motel check-in were quite friendly however. Excellent wi fi.
December 19-28, 2013
J.C. left this review using the Directory software: - Staff at the Beach Motel are as nice as always. There are newspapers every morning for both hotel and RV park guests. We used their washers and dryers this time and they are free and well maintained. RV Park utilities work, but they do not seem to be doing much maintenance and at some point expect the electric outlets to fail. Most sites can accommodate rigs up to 40 feet. If you have a 45 footer, suggest you ask for 156-159 or the "200" numbered sites. There is direct beach access. Mugu has a gas station and a small NEX, you'll need to go to Port Hueneme for a big NEX and Commissary. Being winter, no mosquitoes. We had no problem with wifi.
5 December-24 December 2013
This was our 2nd visit and we will certainly return. We prefer sites in the low 100's as they afford ocean view. We were in #104. The staff is most helpful and friendly and make you feel right at home. Paper, coffee and laundry free..a big plus and they passed out tin of Danish cookies with card to each guest for Christmas. Very thoughtful. Los Palmas gate always open. While we were there, this was only open gate. Small NEX on base is fine for last minute supplies. We do go over to base on Port Hueneme for groceries etc. Beach is very nice and clean as is the campground. They do recycle. John and Amy Stanton
March 25 to April 13, 2013
Loved Point Mugu! Our spot was facing the ocean and I loved it. I could hear the surf during the night - very relaxing. Quiet, private beach which was very clean. This area is a protected seal sanctuary and we got to see a very large number of Harbor Seals with their babies. There is also an abundance of other wildlife. You are not allowed on the part of the beaches where the seals live. WiFi is unreliable. Great café with really good food just down the road near the small BX. Free movie at the theater every Thursday night. Oxnard is also a very nice town with lots to do. Will be staying here again. They also take reservations!
July 17 - 22, 2013
We just came back from here, we had a total of 18 rigs in our group. Elks Kamper Klub this was our second time hosting this group here. Everyone is awesome and even with a few glitches with the new computer system, a good time was had by all. Our only complaint right now is that we were eaten alive by huge blood thirsty Mosquitoes, Seems to be a bad year for them at all areas where there is an estuary nearby. Be forewarned and forearmed!!! The office staff had citronella candles burning in the lobby!
Jan 2013
Great location but limited facilities. The base has a very small PX although there is all the usual but small facilities, auto shop, gas station, subway, gym, golf course, etc,. The RV park is clean and the staff is good, polite, etc. Wifi is unreliable. It is out for hours at a time and keeps dropping the connection when it is working. There are two channels of wifi and you must switch channels frequently to get a connection. Still better than a couple of years ago when it was out for 4 days at a time. We like this area and enjoy our stays at Mugu but must acknowledge Port Hueneme has better facilities if a slightly less fabulous location.

Waterford, Rhode Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Waterford is a village located on St. Paul Street in North Smithfield, Rhode Island and Blackstone, Massachusetts. The Branch River flows through the village.
Waterford was developed in 1824 by Welcome Farnum, a Yankee entrepreneur, who purchased land, built a dam on the Branch River, and constructed the first textile mill called Red Mill. He named the village Waterford because many of the Irish workers in his mill came from Waterford, Ireland. The last mills in the area was constructed mid-nineteenth century. Waterford is home to several St. Paul's Church, originally serving a largely Irish population, and its adjacent school, and many businesses.

It's become a seasonal tradition for lingerie lovers the world over, and the 2015 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is coming back to New York City this winter!

Sporting thick eyeliner and tousled wet tresses, the lingerie supermodel shows off a variety of fresh looks including animal print, satin camisole tops and sparkly bras, all of which come off flawless.
She's fortunate to have a helpful older sister to guide her through the tumultuous waters of the modeling industry, and Bella Hadid just scored a gig with Victoria's Secret.
Following in her older sibling Gigi's example, the 18-year-old stunner is featured in the new ad campaign for Victoria's Secret PINK, along with fellow hotties Rachel Hilbert and Devon Windsor.

The 19-year-old knockout, who just so happens to be the youngest-ever Angel, has a golden glow as she works her magic for the newly-released images.
Five of Victoria's Secret's newest Angels are getting physical for the lingerie brand's latest VS Sport campaign.
Against an industrial backdrop in an old warehouse, Stella Maxwell, Elsa Hosk, Jasmine Tookes, Martha Hunt and Romee Strijd pose in bras and matching leggings. A YouTube clip of the shoot shows the toned supermodels putting the sportswear to good use, training with dumbbells, boxing a punching bag, and spinning on a bicycle.
She's no stranger to working it for the camera, and Rachel Hilbert is all kinds of sexy in her latest Galore magazizne spread.
The Victoria's Secret stunner shows off her fabulous physique in a series of lovely lingerie looks while photographer Dark Kettela and stylist Aeri Yun look on.
If there's anyone that can make Houston, Texas even hotter in August, it's Victoria's Secret Angel Sara Sampaio!

Giving her Windy City fans a little extra love, Taylor Hill showed up at the kickoff of the Body By Victoria Tour on Wednesday (August 5).

We released Windows Mobile 5 a few months ago and devices are starting to hit the market now. A question I've seen asked in a number of places is, "Why can't I upgrade my existing WM 2003 SE devices to WM5?"
The answer is sure to get me a bunch of angry comments from people who abbreviate our name "M$." You can choose to see this as spin from a greedy marketing wonk, or you can see it for what it is–an honest attempt from a developer to explain how this stuff works.
Possible vs. Practical
Since 2002, we've set our hardware requirements and designed our software to make it possible to upgrade any PocketPC or Smartphone at least once. And there have been a number of devices that have upgraded from one version to the next. Also, some of our partners have announced that some of their WM 2003 SE devices will be upgraded to WM5. But, by and large, the number of devices that will upgrade is pretty small.
The trouble is, while it's possible to upgrade devices, it's often not practical to do so. The reason it's not practical boils down this:
1) It costs a lot of money to upgrade a device
2) So few people upgrade that it's hard to amortize this cost
Second things First
I know that it's frustrating to want to upgrade and hear me say, "But no one upgrades." Obviously you want to upgrade. You wouldn't be reading this if you didn't. And, I'll bet you know a bunch of people who want to upgrade as well. Please understand, the companies involved do not say, "Hey, let's not bother to upgrade the device. We won't piss off too many people." Everyone wants to upgrade your devices. There are a number of reasons for this, not the least of which is that we know that providing upgrades makes customers happy. And, yes, we all like happy customers.
It's not about figuring out how many people we can get away with annoying. Upgrades don't happen due to a much simpler calculation.
(Total cost of doing the upgrade) / (number of people who will use it) = (unreasonable price)
The value of "unreasonable price" varies from situation to situation. But there have been times where it was higher than the price of a new phone. Because there have been upgrades in the past, we know how many people do them. And, even though you know a bunch of people who want to upgrade, it's still a tiny percentage of the owners of that device.
Show me the Money
So what are all these costs? The first is the cost of developing and testing all the drivers for a new version of the OS. While Microsoft writes the bulk of the software on a WM device, a significant amount of it is written by the OEM or ODM who created the hardware. And the part they do is the most complicated part of the device: the drivers, parts of the kernel, and the radio stack. On major OS revisions, many of these parts need to be changed, sometimes dramatically. And, any time they need to be changed, extensive testing needs to be done.
Another cost is associated with phone devices sold through Mobile Operators. MOs rightfully want to be sure that any device on their network doesn't interfere with other devices on their network. To do this, they put every device they plan to sell through a battery of tests that last weeks. If a significant amount of code on the device changes, it needs to be retested. And that takes away testing time from another device. The Mobile Operator needs to make a conscious decision to test an upgrade that few people will use instead of testing a sexy new phone that potentially many more will buy.
Another cost comes from how difficult it is to upgrade these devices. The steps are complicated, there are changes that users don't expect, and sometimes it doesn't work. All of those situations result in calls to product support, which are really expensive. Yes, you're capable of pulling off the upgrade. But you're techy enough to be reading an MSDN site. How do you think your grandmother would fare?
Well, what are you doing about it?
In WM5 we spent a lot of time building an infrastructure for enabling updates that anyone can do. We're heading toward a Windows Update sort of experience, where you're using your phone and it suddenly pops up a box that says something like, "An update is available, would you like to have it installed?" Then you just need to select "Yes" and it'll happen for you. How much OEMs and Mobile Operators make use of this infrastructure is up to them, but it's there now. This should solve the "could your grandmother do it?" problem, especially for smaller updates like security fixes.
Of course, to do this, we had to change a ton of stuff, which makes the first two problems even bigger for this release. No pain, no gain.
We're doing a few things to make future updates easier for OEMs and Mobile Operators. First, we're going to try to do some smaller releases that don't require changes in OEM code. If the drivers don't need to change, then it's much easier for the OEM to take an update from us and make it work. The Mobile Operators will still want to test the device, but, hopefully, if the drivers didn't change, they can have some assurance that the things they worry most about didn't change either. That should make their testing easier.
Longer term, we're looking at ways to design our OS so that even major revisions don't require significant driver changes. We don't know for sure that we'll be able to pull that off, but it's a goal we're striving toward.
No it's not just "greed"
I've seen people complain that upgrades don't happen because the parties involved are just greedy. I guess there's a fine line between "economics" and "greed" but that line does exist. The economics of the situation are that it often just doesn't make sense to provide an upgrade. We're working on both parts of that equation. We're trying to reduce the total upgrade cost, and make upgrading easy enough that more people will make use of it. Whether this work will result in more upgrades being provided in the future remains to be seen. But we hope so.

Is Greece's exit from the euro going to prove the price for keeping the rest in? Until now, European leaders have argued the opposite: that keeping Greece in the eurozone was the only way of stopping a succession of defaults by other, bigger countries. And that is still the received wisdom of Brussels and of Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the zone's group of finance ministers.
But the mood has changed considerably over the summer. More and more in both the world of finance and the world of government, officials have laid their plans to cope with a Greek exit. Political leaders say it is not what they want. But their advisers are now telling them that they can manage the event.
That may be wishful thinking, of course. A return to the Greek drachma would have consequences for the banking system and financial markets which are very difficult to predict precisely in an internationalised world. Portugal, for a start, might well find the heat turned up on its borrowing ability, even if intervention by the European Central Bank and the use of the eurozone firewall might stop the contagion spreading.
But then the markets might well feel that Greece's collapse would actually help the eurozone as a whole by allowing Europe's leaders to concentrate on the problems of its larger members. Most funds and banks have developed such detailed contingency plans by now that an actual Greek exit might prove a relief.
The difficulty is in seeing any other solution to the Greek problem. On one side, you have a country basically unable to repay its debts, but being asked to make ever-greater sacrifices to meet impossible targets. On the other, you have lenders – not just Germany, but Finland and the Netherlands as well – who are unwilling, and probably politically unable, to let Greece off the hook. The worse the recession becomes in Greece, the more difficult it is for the country to repay its current loans; yet the more often it asks for looser terms, the less faith its creditors have in ever seeing their money back.
It's easy enough to talk of lengthening the period of repayment, but the simple fact is that the voters of Germany will not buy it. Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, has now gone as far as she can in her insistence on the absolute necessity of preserving the euro. By the standards of the Bundesbank and critics within her own party, never mind the opposition, she has gone well beyond that point.
But if you read her statements, there is a very clear impression that, on the bigger question of the eurozone's future, this lady is not for turning. She is wholly committed to the cause. She is also a politician facing re-election next year. Letting Greece go has obvious attractions as a means by which she could keep her enemies at a distance while continuing with the broader problem of defending the euro.
It won't happen today. The policy for the moment is one of putting off the evil day until the troika submits its report on Greek progress in a month's time. Meanwhile, Chancellor Merkel and President François Hollande, of France – meeting together yesterday and meeting separately with the Greek Prime Minister, Antonis Samaras, today and tomorrow – will try to get the Greeks to make the kind of noises which will keep the German wolves at bay. But unless something extraordinary happens to change Greece's economic situation or the mood of German voters, it's hard to see how a day of reckoning can be postponed indefinitely.
For the sake of ordinary Greeks and the political good of Europe, it would be better if a solution could be found. But the plans for a Greek exit are now in existence and history tells us that once institutions have adjusted to thoughts of the worst, they tend to allow it to happen – even war.
Round two to the Iranians
Bully for the UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon. Despite the demands from Israel and the more discreet pressure from the US, he has insisted that he will be going to the summit of non-aligned developing nations in Tehran next week on the perfectly sensible grounds that it is a group which he can't, given his position, ignore.
His visit, argues an irritated Washington, will give only comfort to Iran as it faces tightening sanctions on its nuclear development. Absolutely right. Given the pressure piling up on the Iranians, Israel's open threats of bombing them and Washington's intense diplomatic manoeuvres to isolate them, of course Tehran is going to try to seek allies where it can. And how better than to put itself on the side of the developing world? Quietly but determinedly, Iranian diplomats have been trying to build bridges in the past months, even with Saudi Arabia.
The Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement, from 29 to 31 August, may prove largely a talking shop. But the US's policy, aided by the UK and the EU, of demonising Iran, is having the reverse effect of making the country seem the victim of Western bullying.Reuse content

Caitlyn Shadbolt - 'Songs On My Sleeve' out May 26th
ONE TO WATCH! CAITLYN SHADBOLT TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM 'SONGS ON MY SLEEVE' OUT MAY 26th
In September last year, Lee Kernaghan released his 42 Track Ultimate Hits through ABC Music/Universal Music Australia, marking a major milestone in a music career that has produced 30 #1 chart hits and record sales approaching 2,000,000 units in Australia alone.
Following the chart topping success of his Ultimate Hits CD, Lee has now released his Ultimate Video Hits DVD, which debuted this week # 5 on the ARIA DVD chart.
2012 marks another anniversary for Lee; it is 20 years since his hit "Boys from the Bush" was released. The Ultimate Video Hits DVD captures Lee's entire musical journey from his debut ARIA Award winning The Outback Club album (1992) right through to his latest Golden Guitar award winning album, Planet Country. It features 19 music videos as well as live performances from CMC Rocks and the Gympie Muster.
At the age of 27, Kernaghan exploded onto the Australian music scene with a new brand of rural rock that redefined contemporary country music in Australia. His music was undeniably country but Kernaghan had learnt how to rock in the pubs and clubs of regional NSW. His music cut through to a younger generation of Australians and paved the way for an unprecedented string of hits that has made him one of Australia's most loved artists.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
1. I was arrested when my ex girlfriend got mad at me and lied to the police to get me in trouble.
2. She didn't press charges or show up in court, nor did she ask for a restraining order.
3. The court (I'm told) automatically issued a temporary restraining order and my lawyer said it was supposed to expire since my ex did not follow through on making it permanent.
4. I didn't know I had a permanent R.O. until I was pulled over a couple years after the fact, and they said there was one that came up on their computer.
5. I called my attorney, he just says there isn't one; yet I asked another law enforcement agency to check for me and it's still there and will expire in another month.
6. My concern is that even after it expires, there will be a permanent record showing the restraining order.What can I do to ensure that the DVRO will not become a permanent mark on my record? Do I have to get a lawyer? Do I even need to bother doing anything or when it expires, will it just disappear for good? Should I get a petition of factual innocence; and is that the same as a petition to have my records sealed and destroyed? Is there a time limit for these petitions? (it's been almost three years now)...Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
You already have a lawyer; I would suggest having him call courthouses in different counties (or checking their web sites) to see if she ever obtained a permanent restraining order in an improper venue or even in your own courthouse but without notice to you. Also have your attorney go in and check the Court's file for your case HIMSELF. If he won't go, go in YOURSELF and look for it.
If you can get the law enforcement agency to give you information about the information they have on file, you may find it's a person with your name, but doesn't fit your description or lived someplace you never lived. If that is the case, then you will need your attorney to find a way to ensure that the police don't keep confusing you with this other guy.
Once the RO expires, I am under the impression the order is no longer enforceable, but remains in the database as a reference point so police will know when they may be dealing with a potentially dangerous person.

New EM Single
YouTube - Eminem - Not Afraid Lyrics
He's back to his roots. This song is full of punch lines.
"He has this urge to pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the whole universe"
"Strong enough to go the club or the corner pub and lift the liquor counter up because I'm raising the bar"
WTF man? How do you compete with that shit?
Despicable is sick too
Yea, this is some good stuff. Can't wait for the album to release, should be sick
His new album looks promising. I'm insanely excited. Thanks for posting broski.
Yea, I think I'll be listening to more music while I shred next season. If Eminem's new album hits as hard as his two songs above, then it will be some awesome shred tunes.
Better come back because Relapse was boring as fuck!

|Imran Hossain, Mixologist for SIX Cocktail Bar
Interview with Imran Hossain, Mixologist, SIX Cocktail Bar, Bangsar
What do you do and how did you get into the industry?
I have been working behind the bar for almost four years now. It all started on New Year's Eve, 2010 whilst I was in Malaysia studying. I convinced my brother, who worked at a bar at that time to take me along with him to work. Considering it's one of the busiest times of the year for an F&B outlet, he agreed to let me tag along to help with the odds and ends. It was the first time I've ever stepped into a bar/nightclub. I was immediately mesmerized by the ambiance and fell in love with the vibe. Later that evening, as it became very busy, especially behind the bar, I asked my brother if he would allow me to help him. His immediate response was, "Help me? What do you know about being a bartender?" So I told him, I'd help wash the glasses and keep the bar clean - and he agreed. I had so much fun that night, and met so many new people, especially loads of pretty women. At the end of that night, I told myself I needed to learn to be the best bartender in town - and the journey began.
Share with us an interesting story from behind the scenes?
I once accidentally cracked a shaker full of a bright red cocktail all over a guest wearing a white shirt. Even after profusely apologizing, offering to pay the dry cleaning bill, getting the manager to waive his bill, the guest continued to put up a major fuss. Interestingly though, the entire bar stood by me, and tried to convince him to accept what we were offering as "compensation", and to get on with his evening - but he refused. He continued to sit by the bar for another three hours in the soaking wet, red stained shirt without ordering another drink - funny.
What's the best/worst part of your job?
I absolutely love sharing my cocktail ideas with our guests. The more curious and adventurous the guest is, the more excited I get - and when they do try a concoction I've made for the very first time, and that look on their face shows me how much they loved it - there is no greater feeling!
I hate it when a guest complains - unless it's constructive, and they provide useful information which I can work on to improve on my drinks. Even if it's in regards to presentation, temperature, texture, taste, anything - but it's got to be explained. "Your drink tastes like sh*t" - is painful to hear. Doesn't happen very often now, but it did before, and I sincerely hope it never happens again. Also, I hate doing inventory, especially on New Year's Eve!
What's your personal favorite meal/ drink at SIX?
Honestly, I'm not a keen drinker myself - however sometimes, when I do indulge, I like it to have that bitter sweet taste. As such, my favorite is the "Classic Negroni."
Tell us a story about one of the dishes/cocktails you prepare?
Let's talk about "Guinness Tarik". Honestly, I don't like Guinness at all as it's way too bitter for my taste. Being Asian, I like sweeter concoctions, so I figured, if coffee (also a somewhat bitter drink) goes well with condensed milk, then let's work on a local flavored cocktail - so I added it to the Guinness (although at the time, I was dying for a "Teh Tarik" - but my room mates only had Guinness in the fridge). To make it complete, I added a little spice with caramel infused rum. It was great, but lacked the desired "kick" - it needed something else. After trying out a few different garnish options - I settled for nutmeg as the final ingredient to this localized cocktail, which seems to be slowly becoming a crowd favorite at SIX.
The perfect day off would be...
when I can spend the day alone with my loved one. No bar, no cocktail can compare.
A day in the life of a mixologist is...
Full of surprises, and at times, pretty challenging. You will always need to bring your "A" Game to work, because you never know who may show up and needs to be impressed!
What do you do for fun?
I'm always thinking of new ideas on how to make people happy with what I do - identifying new concoctions, new ingredients, new infusions which will help me achieve that personal goal of being the best at what I do.
What's something you'd like guests to know about SIX Cocktail Bar?
Everything is managed with passion and love - from the drinks, to the cocktails, to the ambiance, to the music - everything. We have created a SIX family and we want more people to join in!
How do you select your ingredients and why?
Everything has to be fresh. It is the MOST important element in any ingredient which goes into a cocktail. Only the freshest ingredients will transcend the taste I am trying to create, which will hopefully leave the guest in awe and wanting more.
What's in store for you in the upcoming months?
I plan to continuously create concoctions to blow-your-mind. If that can be achieved, then I am closer to my ultimate goal. I have taken part and won mixologist competitions before, and it made me very happy, but the greatest joy comes from the look on that guest's face when she has that first sip of that cocktail which she ends up loving.

Of course, Delhi won't have the lethal yorkers of a Malinga to contend with, but the tight line of Amit Mishra and Siddhart Trivedi could anyway prove quite a handful. Top-order batsmen like David Warner, Unmukt Chand and Aaron Finch, who all did precious little in Sunday's game will have to come amongst the runs and fire, while Naman Ojha and Venugopal Rao who got into the 20s will have to carry on the good work.
The latter order which also failed in the face of Malinga ad Harbhajan Singh will have to put on a better show and back up the top and middle order if the situation presents itself. Meanwhile, the Daredevils' pace quartet of Ashok Dinda, Irfan Pathan, Morne Morkel and Umesh Yadav showed some promise, even though Morkel was the only one to get a wicket. They will have to bowl with more incisiveness and intent if they are to get through the formidable Rajasthan line-up.
Meanwhile for Rajasthan, their top-order might have come good against the Deccan Chargers with Johan Botha the stand out with 67 off47. But if the Daredevils prove to possess the firepower to get through the first few batsmen, then the middle-order will really be tested. The Royals' paceman appear to be in devastating form with Amit Singh and Siddhart Trivedi taking 3 wickets a piece against the Chargers with Shane Waren leading the spinners with 2/21 off his four.
So one will be eager to see just how the Devils prop themselves up in the next match or whether Rajasthan will begin a little winning steak here...

Horseracing in Scotland
Horseracing in Scotland normally comes under a British, as opposed to national aegis. The main National Hunt meeting held is the Scottish Grand National meeting at Ayr each April, and the main Flat meeting is the Western Meeting, featuring the Ayr Gold Cup, at the same course each September.
Supposedly, the oldest continually run horse racing event was the Lanark Silver Bell, which was last run in 1977 before the course closed.
There are several established racecourses in Scotland.
- Ayr Racecourse in Ayrshire - (mixed)
- Hamilton Park in South Lanarkshire - (flat)
- Kelso Racecourse in the Scottish Borders - (national hunt)
- Musselburgh Racecourse (sometimes known as Edinburgh Racecourse[1]) in East Lothian - (mixed)
- Perth Racecourse in Perth and Kinross - (national hunt)
Historically, there was also Lanark Racecourse (closed 1977) and Bogside Racecourse (closed 1965, and the traditional home of the Scottish Grand National).
- ↑ NB - this usage is slightly inaccurate since Musselburgh has never been in the City of Edinburgh boundaries

high compression ratio engines like in the 2012 Focus
(12.0:1) that can manipulate ignition timing and other things automatically to take advantage of premium fuel are a different story. At any rate any Focus owner can safely use either octane gasoline at their own preference.
Since we don't have a proper test done to confirm power or economy increases with the stuff I may as well offer my anecdotal high octane story as well. I filled my car up with BP premium a few weeks ago, reset the odo and MPG meter etc. and didn't notice any significant changes. When the fuel was halfway gone I refilled with premium again from a Shell station. Filling up showed MPG had gone up a bit over the last one (around 1.3 MPG ) and the engine seemed a bit stronger but nothing dramatic.
Last week I was driving to the airport and reset everything to see how far the airport was. I was surprised that the 38 mile trip produced 39.1 MPG on a 48 degree morning. The return (more uphill) trip today when it was warm (mid 80s F) left off at 40.2 MPG over around 80 miles which is the highest MPG average I've seen yet in my just over 1000 mile old car. Granted that's driving moderately on a mix of 45-55 and 70 MPH roads and not really hammering the car but still pretty impressive. Just as importantly the car is now running better too, a tad more low RPM torque and noticeably stronger power as you wind it up higher. I didn't hammer it but I did do adequate testing to determine this.
BTW, I was all over San Diego County CA this week and saw very few 2012 Focuses (less than 10 total over 5 days) and
not one
of them were hatchbacks. I thought that was kinda weird.
I'd be surprised if I didn't have a similar experience.
Just today I did over 100km of driving. I swear the indicated range left dropped only 50km. same driving style as always.
The first thing I noticed about the engine was the high compression ratio, figured of nothing else the engine should run better with better juice, only time will tell if the economy really improves.
