jdeeee wrote:i just received a momentus xt 320gb with firmware 22 and put it in my macbook pro. tried it with and without the jumper to force sata 1. noticed no speed difference when benchmarking with xbench but i expected that since my mac is an early 2008 model, which only has a sata 1 bus. i'm still getting a 1-3 second lag from time to time performing certain actions and i can hear the drive spinning up when it happens.
SD22 Produces these random (to you, logical for the disk itself I guess) spindowns (disk's power management). If you don't mind draining your battery life more to get a more stable experience, try SD23. The disk's own power management is disabled with this firmware update, and so you won't experience those, in expense of battery life...
Reporting back on my results as promised:
Short and Long Drive Self tests both passed on Windows after installing BootCamp. So my Momentus XT seem to be ok.
Two options I'm considering to fix the random spin downs: Jumpering my drive to force it into SATA I (150 MB/s) mode or disabling the Sudden Motion Sensor of my MBP 2007.
I just disabled the Sudden Motion Sensor about two hours ago and so far so good. No random spin down. This is just a very preliminary observation as I didn't use my Macbook heavily. Just wanted to let you know that disabling the Sudden Motion Sensor might help to fix your Macbook with Momentus XT problems.
I'll keep watching this and let you know if I just spoke to soon or if the SMS is really the cause for my random spin downs. Would be a shame if it only worked with an original Apple provided HDD with custom Apple firmware.
Well there it goes. Rejoiced too soon because it just spun down again. So disabling the Sudden Motion Sensor is not the solution. Only thing left to try is to put the jumper in.
I own a Momentus XT 500GB and also suffered from the random spindowns with OS X, even with firmware SD23.
I tryed a tool named hdapm which disables apm (advanced power management).
For 5 days of use I did not recognize any spindowns and hickups.
Url of the tool: http://mckinlay.net.nz/hdapm/
Maybe it can help others until Seagate releases a firmware which works like it should
And if you put maximum power saving, is it only the SSD which runs ?
Thank you by advance
Hello everyone,
I would like to mention my case and my situation
Lenovo T61 Model 7664-1GG
Windows Vista x64, EN
Momentus XT 500Gb original SD22 -> upgraded to SD23
TPFan Control 62
Lenovo Software (as of Sept/06/2010):
- ThinkVantage Active Protection System
Version: 1.71 (6ISK03WW)
- ThinkVantage Power Manager 3
Version: 3.30
- Lenovo ThinkVantage Tools (LTT)
I haven't had any problem at all.
When I had Active Protection System (APS) which protects the HD against shocks and vibrations I think I use to have frequent system FROZEN/HANG and after some minutes, a BIOS message will display "Error 2100 - Hard drive initializa tion error" and the only way to recover was to turn off the computer to restart.
Since more than 1 week, the system is running without any problems about the HD.
I don't feel comfortable installing the latest version of LTT unless Seagate releases the new firmware which should address the problem with the drive.
Any change in my installation, I will report back.
Here's my situation:
I downloaded the Windows Update version of the softwarefor use on my Lenovo T61, running Windows 7 x64. I start the update program, get through all the warnings and legal pages, agree to the terms and hit enter. Within a second or two, I'm met with a failure message, with the following details:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: activate.exe
Application Version: 0.0.0.0
Application Timestamp: 4bf65681
Fault Module Name: snapapi.dll
Fault Module Version: 184.108.40.2063
Fault Module Timestamp: 4b8a15ba
Exception Code: c0000005
Exception Offset: 00011e5f
OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.49
Locale ID: 1033
Additional Information 1: 0a9e
Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789
Additional Information 3: 0a9e
Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789
My drive is at firmware revision SD22. I downloaded the program several different times with the same result; If I try to run the program from thw Seagate website, I get an "invalid security" message.
Any ideas as to how to get around this situation? Thanks in advance.

I'm currently running x2 Momentus 500GB drives in a RAID-0 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and they are absolutely fantastic.
They were preloaded with the latest firmware SD23 and are running flawlessly however I did have to RMA one of the two original drives.
I am not getting the numbers listed on the OCC review however these drives are performing very well and much much faster then my RAPTOR-X drivers that these replaced.
HDTach 220.127.116.11 - I was around 320MB/s burst rate and around 150MB/s avg read. 2% CPU utilization and a rediculously low access time of under 1ms. This was using the quickbench 8mb zone.
I was looking at picking up the REVO 240mb or a really fast SSD drive but with the performance of these drives (as well as the capacity and price) I am reconsidering.
This was a test experience that has gone really well so far for me.
Also use the CDROM ISO if you are using an Intel RAID controller because it will pickup both drives and update properly if it's needed.
Kcstuff if you put maximum power saving, is it only the SSD which runs or what's happening ?
Thank you by advance
It is unusual that you are having 0 problems in RAID yet most are. I was considering purchasing two of these drives for my VMWare WS VM images, since I read your post, my faith in the drives might be restored... I am using an Asus Rampage III Extreme Mobo, what board are you using?

« Jamie Lynn Spears Pregnant | Main | Penis Amputation »
December 19, 2007
Casey Aldridge
Casey Aldridge is the live in boyfriend of Britney Spears' younger sister, Jamie Lynn Spears. Casey Aldridge is also the father of Jamie Lynn's upcoming baby: she's currently 12 weeks pregnant. Casey and Jamie Lynn met at church (would you believe?) and have been dating for about a year:
His name is Casey Aldridge. He's 19 years old and apparently met Jamie Lynn at church years ago (hahahahahahaha) and the two have been dating since. You can view Casey Aldridge's Myspace page here, but of course take that with a grain of salt as it could be a fan having some fun. Casey's mother spoke with TMZ earlier today, saying that "everything is fine" (of course it is, her son just hit the jackpot). No word on if Aldridge is in college or doing anything with his life, but now I'm sure he'll have the cash to do whatever he wants. Let's just hope he doesn't decide he wants to put out a hip-hop album.
Well, quite, let's hope he has absolutely no ambitions in show business at all.
Jamie Lynn and Casey Aldridge have known each other for years, and
evidently they met at church (heh heh). Spears said that the pregnancy
was a shock to both she and Aldridge. Gee, really?
There is very little known
about Casey Aldridge except for the fact that he has been Jamie Lynn
Spears' long time boyfriend. He has blonde hair and stands six feet two
inches. His father Mark
works for a local paper mill in Cleveland, Tennessee. Casey surely
needs to get himself a lawyer, as he is 18 years old and Jamie Lynn is
16. Hmmmm. Doesn't sound too good.
Yes, now that is something to think about isn't it? Just what are the statutory rape laws in that State?
The background to the Casey Aldridge story:
Britney Spears' 16-year-old sister, who stars as a schoolgirl in Nickelodeon's popular TV show "Zoey 101," is pregnant.
The cable channel confirmed a report in the forthcoming edition of celebrity gossip magazine OK! that Jamie Lynn Spears is expecting a child.
"We respect Jamie Lynn's decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn's well being," Nickelodeon said in a statement e-mailed to Reuters.
A high school student who lives in Louisiana, Jamie Lynn Spears reportedly met the father, Casey Aldridge, the son of a Tennessee papermill worker, at church. Jamie Lynn Spears' personal publicist was not available for comment.
And here's how the story played out across the wire services:
And the confirmation that Casey Aldridge is indeed the father:

big differance between brit and jamielynn, jamielynn has been with her bf for 2+ years...... accidents do happen...
Posted by: anne | Dec 22, 2007 12:12:44 AM
Anne, and others, how naive are you? Accident's happen? The pill is almost bullet proof...the pill and a condom are an even better "belts and suspenders." As a father, who planned his daughter's arrival, accidents only happen when you are careless. Two years or twenty, there are no "accidents" when it comes to pregnancy...only stupidity.
Posted by: victor echo | Dec 22, 2007 3:15:33 AM
i can understand why many people are upset over the recent news about Jamie Lynn Spears pregnancy at 16, but there are bigger issues about teen pregnancies. Jamie is 16 not 11. i know she is a teenager but she is soon to become a woman. she IS a woman. There are millions of KIDS everday that are pregnant at 10, 11, 12, 13 , 14, 15, and lower. Those kids are just that. KIDS. Jamie is a younge woman. And as for the Casey age difference, they were dating long before he turned 18, so there shouldn't be an issue over the 2 years of age difference, since younge kids get pregnant everyday by guys who are 3, 4, 5, 6 years older than they and older. Though I am Not sexually active, i respect Jamie's decision on keeping the baby. I'm behind you Jamie Lynn!

I just have to say that i know if i were in her position i'd be scared out of my pants! But i wouldn't mind having HIS baby.

i only have to say one thing they r both idiots
Posted by: ashley | Dec 29, 2007 4:53:52 AM
First off just don't have sex till you are married then you won't have to worry about getting pregnant at 16.... its not rocket science people!!!! Don't have sex... don't have to worry about consequences of it!!!! I'm 16 and if I were pregnant right now I would freak out!!! I have a life ahead of me! So don't do it... its not that hard!
I do agree with her for not having an abortion and taking on this responsibility.
Posted by: Shana | Dec 29, 2007 5:51:55 AM
all of you, get a grip! accidents shouldn't happen... save sex for marriage. seriously, i don't have much respect for people who think it's ok to casually be intimate with a boyfriend/girlfriend. if it's love, it can wait. why risk diseases? not smart.

personally I believe jamie and her sister are both trailer trash. As for all of you who are saying accidents happen, accidents wouldn't happen if you were practicing abstinence. Alot of teens these days need to stop being whores and sleeping with boys because it's supposedely "cool". Little do you know many people think you all are sluts.
Posted by: anonymous | Jan 20, 2008 5:56:18 AM
I respect her for going through with the pregnancy. Its a responsible reaction to her actions. Most 16 year olds would opt for a secret abortion rather than face the humiliation.

Freegulls Week Has Started (21st - 24th Nov)
Click Here for your completley free Kindle Copy
Right now Hiding from Seagulls is Free for Freegulls week. It's odd browsing the page and seeing that people who downloaded the book also downloaded the Wizard of Oz and the Secret Garden. Not least because these are two of my favorite childhood books.
Hiding from Seagulls is one of those Spaceman projects I am particularly proud of. The story is short (about as long as Charlie and the Chocolate factory). I aimed to make it short but entertaining.
It's about a boy called Tommy and his friends and deals with how children of today would cope with a fantasy land. I chucked every odd situation I could at these children. Elephant men, evil duchesses and the man of Christmas himself. Why?
Because there has always been something a bit creepy about Santa Claus.

To sign up, please email Sabrina LoBue, Graduate Coordinator for Student Activities, at email@example.com, as soon as possible.
Are you a student who doesn't regularly attend Rowan After Hours? Would you like a free lunch to come explain why? Come join us on Wednesday, December 11, 2013 from 11:00am to 12:00pm in the Owl's Nest for a small RAH focus group. We would like to hear what you have to say about the program. To sign up, please email Sabrina LoBue, Graduate Coordinator for Student Activities, at firstname.lastname@example.com, as soon as possible. Space is VERY limited.
With your help, we have raised over $9,000 for the Front Row Foundation! Thank you for coming out and supporting this year's Holiday Helper Auction!
List of Our Events
About Us
The Office of Student Activities plans and implements co-curricular activities and programs that offer students an engaging social experience on campus.
We are composed of professional staff, graduate coordinators, student workers and volunteers. Two student-funded organizations fall under the Office of Student Activities:
- Student University Programmers (SUP) - SUP is a Student Government Association (SGA) chartered club ran for students, by students.
- Rowan After Hours (RAH) - Rowan's only late-night activity program for current students takes place every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night from 9:00p until 1:00a.
Get Involved
Become a part of the action! We are always looking for new members to join our family and to help us plan, promote, and execute our large-scale events including movie nights, student competitions, charity fundraising events, and big-name concerts for Rowan students.
Along the way you will meet and work with countless new friends, learn valuable office skills, learn how to operate cutting-edge technical equipment, and even have the opportunity to step up and take on the role of a leader.
Pique your interest? The easist way to get involved is to join the Student University Programmers (SUP) which is composed of several committees; each of which focuses on a different style of events. You can get involved as much, or as little, as you like by coming out to a SUP General Meeting (dates below), walking into any committee meeting (meeting times and places posted here), or by walking into our office and talking to anyone there (our office is in the Student Center in room 117 and it is open during normal business hours).
SUP General Meeting Dates and Locations (snacks and refreshments will be served)
There are no more meetings this semester! Come out next semester and check here for our General Meeting Dates and Locations.
Our paid positions reside within Rowan After Hours (RAH) in which employees are much less involved in the planning, but rather focus on the execution of RAH events. RAH hires on an as-needed basis, but applications may be filled out at any time. Click here to fill out an application!

While the oil flow from the BP Deepwater Horizon may have stopped, the environmental disaster lives on. In a recent Fox 8 News interview, Louisiana Plaquemines Parish President, Billy Nungesser said he was demanding federal involvement when it comes to testing the waters in the parish hit by heavy oil. "We've never seen so many species floating in so many different areas. I'm begging the E.P.A., or somebody," he said, "I'm begging them to do their job, get out there and let's test and see what the hell is going on in the water."
Approximately 4 million barrels of oil were poured into the Gulf of Mexico during the four month long gusher. Many scientists believe that BP's heavy use of the chemical dispersant, may have made the ecosystem damage worse Environmental expert Rick Steiner believes that the oil spilled into the Gulf during the BP disaster may have caused permanent damage to the ecosystem. Steiner and top NOAA official David Kennedy believe sheer volume of oil spilled is at the heart of the grim prognosis.
BP has been hiding data since the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded on April 20, 2010. Just days after the disaster took eleven lives, BP officials persuaded an unknown number of scientists with lucrative contracts designed to block the public release of environmental and public health and safety data.
Senior Washington Correspondent for the Huffington Post, Dan Froomkin said, "The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is hoarding vast amounts of raw data that independent marine researchers say could help both the public and scientists better understand the extent of the damage being caused by the massive BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico"
P.J. Hahn, the Director the Plaquemines Parish Coastal Zone Management Department, is also deeply concerned about the implications from the numbers of dead fish now floating to the surface in Louisiana waters.

Budget war creates divides in GOP
WASHINGTON, D.C. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - The war over the budget and the debt ceiling has been tense and passionate at times, but the battle lines have not always been clear.
Not just a right vs. left battle, it turned out sometimes the battle lines were drawn within the Republican Party itself.
National Correspondent Kristine Frazao took a look at the impact of what some are now calling the Ted Cruz Effect.

Student Reviews alessia Many students on my campus are multi-cultured. Some are vegetarians because of their religion, some do not drink or smoke, some dress differently and some practice different religion. I like diversity and getting to know other cultures because it is an eye opener. An example would be my friend who is muslim. He would fast for a whole day because of his religion. I support that. I do not think anyone would feel out of place. Everyone is friendly to one another. Most students in class wear comfortable clothes like sweats and sweatshirts. Yes, different types of students interact whether it is different majors or ethnicity. In the dining hall there is a table of honor scholars (very studious), athletes (very active and outgoing), musicians (who play their instruments) and miscellaneous table where people tend to sit wherever. Most of the students are families. Majority of the students are active. I believe right. Yes, more males than females discuss about money they will earn one day.

DigiSpotlight: All Eyes On Naden
April 18th, 2012 ⋅ News ⋅ by MeganA chance encounter with his praise worthy track 'Murmuration' the other week sparked our curiosity about this mysterious 20 year old trance producer from Norway who just released 3 epic tracks via industry heavyweight Armada Music. After a google search turned up very little, we decided to reach out to the creator himself. We were excited to receive some very raw, unadulterated responses, proof of a notoriety so new it has gone untainted by big money/major label demands. Here's what Daniel Taranger, a.k.a. Naden, had to say…..
A warm digilove welcome to you Daniel. Can we start off by having you introduce yourself to our readers? Name, age, location, what you had for breakfast this morning, etc. ?
My name is Daniel Taranger, im 20 years old and from the cold, tall and majestic country Norway. My daily routine consists of getting up, eat, go to work, get home eat produce music and sleep, i spend my weekends with friends watching movies or whatever.
How long have you been making music for and how did you first get into producing?
I have been producing "music" for 5 years now. I have been doing creative work all my life, all the way to i was 14 i draw stuff and got pretty good at it. From there on i just played drums in a random band with my friends. I started out with fl studio 6 when i was about 16, and gave it up a few times, All the knobs and stuff scared me. I eventually began producing full tunes and put them on youtube, i got to about 130 tracks before i got signed to Armada.
We had a listen to some more of your tracks on Soundcloud, there's a kind of darker twist that you take on trance, particularly in W.W- can you tell us about the inspiration behind some of these tracks and the lyrical sample that you used in this one in particular?
The free tracks on my soundcloud are all produced in just a couple of hours. They tend to be more raw and dark, and i just put them out for free since i dont want to go through the hassle and deal with more labels and aliases. My tracks over at Armada are abit more serious and abit overproduced. They tend to have a project time of several days. I prefer the tracks i make that has been done in just 1 hour, like "Waka". The track W.W just came out of pure inspiration when i saw seeing the 2nd last episode of the series: "Breaking Bad" my all time favourite TV show. The voices is sampled from when Walter looses it and begin laughing uncontrollable.
Your latest releases came out on industry heavyweight Armada Music. Did you approach them or did they find you?
I was already signed to the small label: "We Stand Alone" led by Nick Boults, the label now got support from Markus Schulz. At that time i didnt even dream about getting signed to Armada, it was too far of a step. I then made a track: " Sentio" and just out of randomness posted it on Dj Eco's facebook. I never spam my music EVER! this was my first time posting at his wall. Got an email from him the same day where he said he liked my stuff and would refer me to his A&R manager. Some days later i got an email that they loved my music but couldnt sign anything i had on youtube because it was already "out there". So i started from scratch and made my first track "Amaranthus" which they liked. Signed a thick contract with alot of difficult words and the rest is as they say, history.
Do you DJ as well as produce? If so, where can we find you playing?
I do not dj, i am 100% focused on producing for now. For the moment im not planning to make any money on my music.
If you could pick one song and one artist that have inspired you the most, what track and who would that be?
Wow, difficult question. Starting out Marcus Schössow inspired my initial style. Dj Eco – Lost Angeles, would be the most inspiring track. Also listening to Bruce Cullen's: "Concoction" mixes shaped my taste of trance.
Trance seems to be a timeless sub-genre of electronic music. Why do you think it has had so much staying power and do you think more trendy genres like dubstep will have the same kind of staying power 20 years down the road?
Long answer. Trance can be very diverse since its built upon the 4×4 beat. I think dubstep will be passing as it is today and become alot more diverse in the sense that trance is now. But heres my view, you will allways have those semi known artists in both genres that make music that is beyond the mainstream part of that genre and are just sources of inspiration. Like in trance Breakfast (Keyworth) has now given out a free E.P called The Deep End, i think its probably the best tracks ive heard the last year. In the dubstep category you have "Burial". A guy that makes unbelievable dubstep, no ones have even seen his face. But his music is just a massive inspiration to me as a producer. What i think is that these kinds of producers, that stay true to their own sound and their own road will become looked upon more as the Internet matures. We will see a massive explosion in diverse genres in the future!
Finally, (we ask all our digispotlighters this), if you could have one superpower what would it be? Also, what can we expect from you musically during the rest of 2012?
As cheesy as this might sound, i would like to be able to fly. I dream about it almost every night. 2012: Apart from alot more tracks maybe 4 more E.Ps with about 16 tracks. Also i may be collaborating with some good producer friends of mine like: Casey (Keyworth) (Breakfast), Marcello (Eco) or Basil O'Glue, we will see.
You can check out Naden's latest track below (make sure to grab the free download in the soundcloud!) or connect with him on his social media. Keep an eye on this one, such talent never stays a secret for long!

(FT5) UPDATED-> Samyang will make two new FourThirds lenses! The 85mm f/1.4 and 8mm f/3.5 fisheye!
UPDATE: Samyang will also launche a new 35mm f/1.4 lens in Q2!
Source: lenstip
In an Interview with Lenstip Mr. Lee (Director of Sales & Marekting Samyang Optics) confirmed that they will produce the two lenses for FourThirds mount (no word about MicroFourThirds)
"LensTip.com: Do you plan to introduce lenses with the 4/3 mount?
Mr. Lee: We are currently adding this mount to 85mm and 8mm products. They will be released in 1st quarter of 2010. 4/3 mount will be available for all future products. "
More informations about the lenses:
- Samyang 8mm
- Samyang 85mm f/1.4
Lenstip reviewed both lenses:
- Samyang 8mm review
- Samyang 85mm review
Thanks Jerry for sending the link!
You can find Samyang lenses (Canon/Nikon/Sony/Pentax mounts) in:
Amazon UK /
/ Adorama
Since the Samyang lenses are manual focus only, at least for once these wouldn't be too burdensome to use on Micro Four Thirds via an adapter. I sometimes use an old Canon screwmount 85mm f/1.5 on my Micro Four Thirds camera (Pana G1) and can comfirm that this is a very useful focal length… although holding still is a challenge!
I don't know why they didn't say this in the first place!
Its a manual lens! All you need to do is take the Nikon version, add a <$1 Fmount to 4/3 adaptor and you have a 4/3rds lens!All the old Zeiss Nikon lenses were also 4/3rds as all were also manual. Only just recently did Zeiss offer Aperture control on the F mount series.
Focusing on this lens should be easy on a E3, I curently use Nikon 50mm F1.2 with out trouble.
[...] sono quasi sempre manuali. L'offerta Samyang si è ora allargata al mercato QuattroTerzi, con il fisheye 8mm f/3.5, il 35mm ed l'85mm entrambi f/1.4. Gli utenti di queste macchine ne saranno contenti, vista la penuria di ottiche per questo sistema. [...]
[...] And finally Samyang will release two new FourThirds lenses in March. The 85mm f/1.4 and 8mm f/3.5 [...]

The Cleveland Clinic Cutaneous Nerve Laboratory, one of only a few in the country, has been created to improve diagnosis and research in small fiber sensory neuropathy.
Small fiber sensory neuropathy is a common neuromuscular disorder associated with many medical conditions, including diabetes mellitus, amyloidosis, HIV infection, connective tissue diseases, and pharmacological neurotoxicity. It is also not uncommon to be idiopathic, especially in elderly patients. The clinical presentation usually consists of cutaneous pain, numbness and autonomic dysfunction, which can lead to significant functional impairment. Some patients may predominantly present with pain, which is subjective. A sensitive and specific diagnostic tool is thus essential for making correct diagnosis and rendering appropriate subsequent management.
Small caliber nerve fibers consist of somatic (type C and Ad fibers) and autonomic fibers. They play key roles in cutaneous nociception, thermoreception, and autonomic function. Autonomic function can be assessed by quantifying sweat output and measuring cardiovascular regulation.
Since not all patients with small fiberopathy have both somatic and autonomic involvement, assessing somatic fibers is very much desired. These fibers are small and many are unmyelinated with very slow conduction velocities; therefore, their conduction responses cannot be captured and evaluated by routine nerve conduction studies. This gap has previously been filled by a histological method to evaluate cutaneous nerve fiber density. By immunostaining using the panaxonal marker, protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5), of skin biopsies, intraepidermal small nerve fibers (IENF) become visible and can be assessed both morphometrically and morphologically.
IENF density evaluation is not only a powerful technique for diagnosing small fiber sensory neuropathy, but also a valuable tool for research of this disease. Since 3-mm punch skin biopsy is minimally invasive and well-tolerated, it can be safely repeated to monitor disease progression and treatment response. It has been used in the past to study neuropathies associated with various conditions, including diabetes mellitus, AIDS, leprosy, Fabry disease and postherpetic neuralgia. Trials are planned on small fiber neuropathy by using IENF density evaluation as one of the outcome measurements. This technique will also be useful in basic research to study molecular mechanisms underlying small fiber degeneration and regeneration to develop better clinical intervention.
Small fiber sensory neuropathy (SFSN) is a type of neuropathy that predominately affects small-caliber sensory nerve fibers, which control perception of pinprick, cold and heat stimuli. Patients with SFSN usually present with numbness, tingling (pins and needles sensation), and pain. Although the symptoms may involve any part of the body, it often affects feet the most. The pain is usually described as burning, stabbing or electric-like.
Small fibers travel too slow and their conduction responses cannot be captured by nerve conduction study/EMG which is a routine test performed to evaluate for large sensory and motor nerve fibers. Therefore, skin biopsy is used to evaluate small sensory nerve fibers in the skin.
No. It is minimally invasive. We routinely do skin biopsy on 1 side at 3 sites, above ankle (distal leg), above knee (distal thigh), and below hip (proximal thigh) using a 3 mm (diameter) biopsy punch. Since the biopsy size is so small, no stitches are needed. The biopsy sites will be healed within 1 week, but will leave small scars.
No. The whole procedure takes about 10–15 minutes. The only time you will feel pain is when Lidocaine is injected to numb your skin; you may feel a burning sensation for about 5 seconds. The procedure is very well tolerated.
The potential complications are bleeding and infection of biopsy sites. The risk of complications is very low if you follow the written aftercare instructions, which will be given and explained to you when you come for the biopsy.
In general, you do not need to discontinue your medications before the biopsy. If you are on an oral blood thinner such as Coumadin, you may switch it temporarily to subcutaneous injection of Heparin 2 days before the biopsy under the direction of the doctor who put you on Coumadin. You may resume Coumadin after the biopsy. You can continue activity as usual after the biopsy. You can take a shower. However, to prevent infection, you may not go swimming or take a bath in the first week.
Skin biopsy specimens will be processed in our skin lab (CCF Cutaneous Nerve Laboratory). Each skin biopsy specimen will be cut into 50–60 sections. Some of the sections will be immunostained using an antibody against a nerve marker (PGP9.5) to highlight small sensory nerve fibers in the skin. The sections will then be viewed under a microscope to count the number of small nerve fibers in the epidermis of the skin. The diagnosis of small fiber sensory neuropathy will be made if the small nerve fiber density is reduced as compared to normal persons.
The biopsy report is usually generated and sent to the referring physician in 1–2 weeks.
You should contact your doctor who orders the skin biopsy to find out and discuss the biopsy result.

In Reply to: wet vs dry pail and wear on diapers posted by KarenC on September 26, 19103 at 07:36:24:
Same detergent (Tide and occasional Costco brand). Different washing machine. The diapers back then were a mix of Mother Ease and Indisposables but saw the same result. The Indisposables would get actual big holes in them where as the mother ease got more like bald patches. With Ds #1 I used one size diapers.
What I have been told is that the water breaks down the cotton fibers.
I also had a problem with bad odors and having to wash over and over and over.... But it is just like anything, water does add to the breaking down process.

Anastomoses of intestinal tract as a sequela to rectal stricture in swine. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 427635 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Rectal stricture with anastomoses of colon and/or small intestine to a spherical dilatation of the descending colon proximal to the stricture was observed in six swine. In three of these swine, feces bypassed most of the colon in passage from the small intestine to the dilated colon. Rectal stricture with an anastomosis of a loop of colon to the rectal stricture was observed in one pig where feces bypassed much of the stricture. |

Onward (6 of 10)
Next we tried the Vinum XL Montrachet glass, which looks like a lot of the red wine glasses I see used even in good restaurants, with a chardonnay. Don't worry about keeping a chardonnay cool; according to Maximilian, a chardonnay is best at just below room temperature. Maximilian's grandfather was the first to design this shape of glass, and it was always intended for white -- in fact, he called it "the enemy of red wine." It's also apparently good for blanc de blanc champagne. The wide rim helps you avoid the nose burn of the higher alcohol content in those whites, and Maximilian says that the idea that champagne should be served in a flute to preserve the bubbles is a myth.
A man remarked on the elegance of a champagne flute and asked Maximilian what he would do if someone came into Riedel and asked for a champagne flute.
"I would do a tasting with him," said Maximilian. "I would let him decide for himself." 22/07/09

The lovely Kristin from quiet and small: adventures in ph.d-land purged some of her fabric and pattern collection a while back, and instead of doing the easy thing of donating them, she offered them up - first come first served style - to her readers! And I jumped all over that. Because I totally need more fabric and patterns.
I liked the simplicity of the, erm, Simplicity pattern, especially that adorable peter pan collar. It doesn't include a lot of shaping, but the size matches my upper bust, and I figured I could add some waist darts if needed while I do the oh so needed FBA. Or I'll just try tucking it in. I've been liking that look on me lately!
Kristin was trying to entice Tanit-Isis or Oonaballoona to take this one, but I was greedy and scooped it on them. How can I resist those colours?! I'm determined to have a more colourful wardrobe this winter, since oh ho hello there 24 hour nighttime. I'll need some brightness to keep me smiling! Plus it sort of reminds me of the northern lights that's going to totally make up for the lack of sunlight. Kristin also threw in the black bias tape, which will be perfect for the blouse I have in mind for this. Not sharing that with you yet though, because I have a bad habit of changing my mind as soon as I say what I'm going to do. Haha um, not so good for wardrobe planning.
This is what I think is a vintage knit. It's thin and has a lovely texture, and I'm considering making a long-sleeve t-shirt with some pintucks at the neckline or something. But now that I've said that, it'll probably become something else entirely. Isn't the colour lovely though? I'm loving this mustard yellow lately. So pretty!
Thanks for the fabric and pattern Kristin. I'm eager to get my scissors and needles into them!
Watch out for my next post, where I show you how I plan to sew in a tiny room, which also serves as a change room, library, workspace, and oh yeah, my bedroom. Goodness grief, this is going to be interesting.


text: Hummingbirds are some of the most stunning examples of the beauty of flight. Diana Beltran Herrera manages to give us a glimpse of that gorgeous moment when motion meets stillness as bird merges with flowers. A life sustaining movement captured in paper, suspended as a freeze frame that allows us to see the details as we never could in real life. Her love for color is clear in all of the work that she does, allowing us to see her world through a colorful prism. But her insane paper sculpturing ability is truly something to revel in. Go check out My Modern Met's coverage of the hummingbird exhibit to see more examples from this beautiful showing.

"With no sign of economic recovery on the horizon ..."
Things are tough all over. If it's not foreign visitors at Yellowstone National Park believing they're under arrest due to overzealous park rangers enforcing a supposed government shutdown, it's the taxpayers of Colorado ponying-up for the Mile High City to create an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission to welcome any potential "extraterrestrial intelligent beings or their vehicles" to their fair city. But a sure sign of the economic downturn is the news that the White House Gift Shop is now broke, as reported by the Washington Times on Oct. 10, 2013.
Founded in the 1940s to help raised money for The Secret Service Uniformed Division Benefit Fund, and ever since acting as the official gift shop for the White House, the retail shop has found itself weighed down with $600,000 in liabilities.
Operating independently from the federal government, with no sign of economic recovery on the horizon, the purveyor of low cost trinkets and souvenirs has decided to nail the front door shut for good.
The White House Gift Shop made headlines in 2009 when British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and the British people presented to Barack Obama the gifts of a pen holder made from the timbers of the Victorian anti-slave ship HMS Gannet; the framed commission of the famed British Arctic exploration ship, the HMS Resolute; and a seven-volume biography of one of the United Kingdom's greatest leaders, Sir Winston Churchill.
Obama reciprocated with a hastily gathered gift basket consisting of 25 DVDs and two toy models of Marine One.
To add insult to injury, the White House Gift Shop DVDs are incompatible with British DVD players.

The Backstory previews stories appearing in the Style pages of The New York Times Magazine.
When you're planning the wedding event of the year, you need a set designer who will say "I do." So Swarovski called upon the get-it-done impresario Stefan Beckman to create the setting for the release of the book "Unbridaled", which presents the crystal-studded nuptial creations of over 100 A-list designers. Beckman, who is profiled in The New York Times Magazine this weekend, transformed the Hôtel de la Monnaie in Paris into an avant-garde backdrop for opulent gowns and all the trimmings by the likes of John Galliano, Vera Wang, Doshi Levien and Stephen Jones. Read the story on T's Web site and get the backstory with The Moment. Here we take a trip down the aisle with the innovative designer.
What was the concept you started with?
We knew we wanted to do one big wedding banquet and make it surreal, not so serious and definitely over the top. A Busby Berkeley-Fellini-Salvador Dalí crazy wedding banquet with a succession of rooms also decorated to loosely evoke the wedding theme.
This installation was huge.
We've worked on some big stuff before, but there were so many little details on this project; when you do a big set for a fashion show, it's just the show and the stage. Here we had eight rooms and every room was different. Read more…

Odd Things I Did Last Week
1. Paid for gas with lottery tickets.
I don't buy lottery tickets. I group them with gambling in my philosophy of "sorry, I don't have enough money to spend money trying to win money that chances say I will likely lose anyway." Or something like that. But it turns out that twice a year, my company gives out lottery tickets for each month each person has perfect attendance. I got four and won two free tickets plus $4.
But then last week, I lost my Visa check card, had to cancel it, and wait for a new one. Can we say pain in the ass? It's surprising how many places don't take checks anymore, including the gas station at which I spent $20 before realizing I didn't have the cash or card to pay for it. PANIC! I had $14. Wouldn't you know that I pulled out those lottery tickets I'd been meaning to turn in, and the guy equated the two free tickets to dollars, thereby allowing me to pay my bill by the skin of my teeth. Of course, I forfeited the possibility that I might perpetuate my winnings with the two free tickets, but under the circumstances, I could hardly complain.
2. Stopped in rush hour traffic so geese could cross the street.
Ridiculous, I know, but what could I do? The three birds already were standing in the middle of the street, having crossed the other lane. It's not that I care that much about pesky geese life. They're a foul creature. Pun intended. But geese are pretty large. Running them down would have been gross and unnecessary. Someone had to stop. What I couldn't believe as I sat there already humored by this unusual event, is that the third goose took his damn sweet time. He actually decided to walk up the lane in front of me for a while rather than straight across. Of all the nerve!!

Microsoft's Bing Scratches Out 1% Market-Share Gain
11:47 AM EST Wed. Jul. 01, 2009Microsoft's new Bing search engine has eked out a slight gain in market share, according to statistics released Wednesday, but it has a long way to go before it catches up with industry leader Google.
Microsoft had 8.23 percent market share in June " the first month its Bing online search engine was available, according to StatCounter Global Stats, a Web site traffic analysis firm. That put Bing not far behind Yahoo's 11.04 percent market share but far behind Google's 78.48 percent.
Microsoft, which is trying to grow its online services business against Google, had a 7.21 percent share of the search market in April with its MSN Search and Live Search properties, according to StatCounter. Google's market share in April was 79.07 percent " meaning its share dropped slightly between April and June.
"At first sight, a 1 percent increase in market share does not appear to be a huge return on the investment Microsoft has made in Bing, but the underlying trend appears positive," said Aodhan Cullen, StatCounter's CEO, in a statement. "Steady if not spectacular might be the best way to describe performance to date."
Microsoft, for example, has been running a series of television advertisements that show zombielike people spouting nonsensical facts and data as a result of search overload " an effort to portray Bing as providing Web surfers with more of the information they are looking for.
Initially the market share of all Microsoft's search properties (Bing, Live Search and MSN Search combined) increased to 9.21 percent right after Bing debuted June 1, dropped back the next two weeks, then grew to 8.45 percent during the period of June 22 to 28, leading to the overall 8.23 percent market share for the month, according to Dublin, Ireland-based StatCounter.
The market-share numbers are based on an analysis of 1.3 billion search engine referring clicks worldwide (336 million from the U.S.) collected from StatCounter's network of 3 million Web sites.

Let me add a final word on the Supreme Court.Before the arguments began, the overwhelming consensus among legal experts who aren't hard-core conservatives — and even among some who are — was that Obamacare was clearly constitutional…. [F]our justices dissented, and did so in extreme terms, proclaiming not just the much-disputed individual mandate but the whole act unconstitutional. Given prevailing legal opinion, it's hard to see that position as anything but naked partisanship.The point is that this isn't over…. The cruelty and ruthlessness that made this court decision such a nail-biter aren't going away.But, for now, let's celebrate. This was a big day, a victory for due process, decency and the American people.
Had President McCain
asked Health and Human Services Secretary Romney to implement nationalized
Romneycare, there would have been no controversy nor case.
Romneycare would be attacked from the left for being too market centered and
not including a public option among others things. It would accepted as better than the status quo, but something that could be improved on in the future.
From the right Nationalized Romneycare would be hailed as a triumph
of the Market to solve a generations old problem. Scalia, Thomas, Alito and Kennedy would have
found some other matter to be outraged over. They would have found it and been mad about what ever it was.

Health Insurance
Students on a US visa are required by the University to purchase health insurance.
Medical coverage here is extremely expensive and carrying medical insurance is very important, especially in the case of a serious illness and/or accident. For this reason Bucknell has carefully chosen a plan that meets the needs of international students while they are studying at Bucknell.
You can expect to receive a bill for this plan along with your tuition statement. While domestic students have the option of waiving the Bucknell insurance for one their family already carries, international students do not have permission to use any other plan other than the Bucknell plan. U.S. students living abroad are strongly encouraged to consider buying the Bucknell Insurance. Lewisburg is serviced by a local hospital, Evangelical Community Hospital, and may not be familiar with insurance policies that are not local.
For the 2012-2013 academic year the estimated cost is $1,800.00 (subject to change). During International Student Orientation you will learn more about health insurance and how important it is in the U.S.

BUTTE - Butte-Silver Bow Fire Department responded to a small camp fire in the middle of Butte Tuesday afternoon.
A group of transients started a fire behind the old Skookum Motel building on Harrison Avenue. There was nothing to contain the fire, according to officials. The fire was spreading and creating a lot of smoke.
In July, transients were a problem for businesses farther north on Harrison Avenue. After much protest Butte-Silver Bow Law Enforcement started to patrol the area more heavily. Business owners in the area where the fire occurred say transients are often in the area.

I remember coming across an old letter folded until it was a tiny square. I ever-so-gently unfolded it and slowly more and more of the wonderful writing was visible. I read the letter and asked my dad who these people possibly were? He had no idea and the names mentioned in the letter were not written on any of the other papers that my grandma had kept.
The letter now sits in my office and I know more of the story behind it.
The key items in the letter were:
1) the date Dec. 14, 1883,
2) the address 93 Glenarm Rd., Lower Clapton,
3) people - addressed to Uncle and Aunt and signed M & R Brock
Once the 1881 English census was available I found the people living at 93 Glenarm Road -
Robert Brock - listed as son, age 23
Martha Brock - listed as daughter, age 25
Henry Brock - listed as son, age 21
Edward Brock - listed as son, age 17
No parents listed at all.
Over time and research I discovered that these Brock children had lost their parent's, first their mother Martha in 1877, and shortly thereafter their father Robert in 1879.
The children stayed together as we see in the 1881 census.
The letter goes on to describe the loss of their brother Henry who fell ill and how they miss him. They also speak of their younger brother who headed to New York for work but came back again as he had "altered his mind".
At least now I knew the letter writers and I suspected that the Uncle that they wrote to was Richard Lee Norton who was born in Great Yarmouth in 1819. I assumed that this must come from Richard's family because he was my only ancestor from England that I knew of on my grandmother's tree. I have since been able to show that this is most likely the case.
I have not been able to find the marriage record between Robert Brock and Martha Norton which would be the one item that would tie this story up into a pretty package. I have located Robert and Martha Brock from the 1851 census when they were living at St. George in the East, then St. Luke and a residence at 6 Red Lion Market, before they moved to Glenarm Road.
I have not uncovered all the clues in the letter, I have yet to find out who is mentioned in this portion - "Richard was at Yarmouth in the summer they are all well except Aunt she being very feeble". I feel like they are waiting, wondering what is taking me so long.
I am so thankful as I look back on those times when I was able to go to my dad's and drag box after box upstairs. I chuckle remembering the lack of understanding of my family who would groan as I slowly drifted downstairs to lug another box up to a spot in the middle of the living room to see the same items I had just viewed the month before.
But I had to do it ... my ancestors were calling.

As a young woman in the 1920s, DOROTHY DAY (1897-1980) lived the Bohemian life in Greenwich Village. She palled around with Eugene O'Neill, took lovers, and had an abortion. She was an ardent suffragist and Wobbly, and an "anarchopacifist" (according to her New York Times obituary) who believed in free love and fought for workers' rights. In 1927, after the birth of her daughter, Day became a devout Catholic. But though most of her fellow radicals viewed the Church as an institution upholding the status quo, Day saw a framework for social justice. She founded the Catholic Worker movement, which fed and clothed the poor in "houses of hospitality" across the nation, in 1933. And she continued to oppose war and promote civil disobedience: in the 1950s, she was jailed for refusing to take part in an air-raid drill; in the '70s, she protested against the war in Vietnam. Day acknowledged that when it came to labor and politics, "I am inclined to be sympathetic to the left, but when it comes to the Catholic Church, I am far to the right"; she supported orthodox Catholic views on divorce, birth control, and abortion. Even so, Day's devotion to "comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable," in the words of a citation bestowed upon her by Notre Dame University, is remarkable in a world where the phrase "Christian radical" is too often an oxymoron.
