Encopresis occurs when your child resists having bowel movements, causing impacted stool to collect in the colon and rectum. When your child's colon is full of impacted stool, liquid stool can leak around the impacted stool and out of the anus, staining your child's underwear. Encopresis may also be called stool holding.
Encopresis usually occurs after age 4, when your child has already learned to use a toilet. In most cases, encopresis is a symptom of chronic constipation. Less frequently, it may be the result of developmental or emotional issues.
Encopresis can be frustrating for you — and embarrassing for your child. However, with patience and positive reinforcement, treatment for encopresis is usually successful.
Signs and symptoms of encopresis may include:
- Leakage of stool or liquid stool on your child's underwear. If the amount of leakage is large, you may misinterpret it as diarrhea.
- Constipation with dry, hard stool.
- Passage of large stool that clogs or almost clogs the toilet.
- Avoidance of bowel movements.
- Long periods of time between bowel movements, possibly as long as a week.
- Lack of appetite.
- Abdominal pain.
- Repeated urinary tract infections.
When to see a doctor
Call your doctor if your child, who is older than age 4 and already toilet trained, begins exhibiting one or more of the symptoms listed above.
There are several causes of encopresis. The most common are:
- Constipation. Most cases of encopresis are the result of chronic constipation. In constipation, the child's stool is hard, dry and may be painful to pass. As a result, the child avoids going to the toilet — making the problem worse. The longer the stool remains in the colon, the more difficult it is for the child to push stool out. The colon stretches, ultimately affecting the nerves that signal when it's time to go to the toilet. When the colon becomes too full, soft or liquid stool may leak out.
Common causes of constipation include eating too little fiber, not drinking enough fluids or consuming an excess of dairy products. Sometimes, a child with a cow's milk intolerance may experience constipation, although milk intolerance causes diarrhea more often than constipation.
- Emotional issues. Emotional stress also may trigger encopresis. A child may experience stress from premature toilet training or an important life change — for instance, the divorce of a parent or the birth of a sibling.
Risk factors
The following risk factors may increase your child's chances of having encopresis:
- Sex. Encopresis is more common in boys.
- Chronic constipation. This may cause your child to avoid passing stool.
- Not drinking enough fluids. This aggravates existing constipation.
A child who has encopresis may experience a range of emotions, including embarrassment, frustration, shame and anger. If your child is teased by friends or chastised by adults, he or she may feel depressed or have low self-esteem.
Early treatment, including spending time with a mental health professional, can help prevent the social and emotional impact of encopresis.
Preparing for your appointment
You'll probably first bring up your concerns with your child's doctor. He or she may refer you to a doctor who specializes in digestive disorders in children (pediatric gastroenterologist), or a mental health professional if your child seems to be very embarrassed, frustrated or angry because of encopresis.
Because appointments can be brief and there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be prepared for your child's appointment.
What you can do
- Be aware of any pre-appointment restrictions. At the time you make the appointment, be sure to ask if there's anything you need to do in advance, such as restrict your child's diet.
- Write down a list of your child's symptoms — including how long they've been occurring.
- Write down key personal information, including any major stresses or recent life changes.
- Make a list of all medications, as well as any vitamins or supplements, that your child is taking.
- Write down questions to ask your child's doctor.
Preparing a list of questions can help you make sure that you cover all of the points that are important to you. Some basic questions to ask your child's doctor include:
- What's the most likely cause of my child's symptoms?
- Are there other possible causes for these symptoms?
- What kinds of tests does my child need? Do these tests require any special preparation?
- How long might this problem last?
- What treatments are available, and which do you recommend?
- What types of side effects can be expected with this treatment?
- Are there any alternatives to the primary approach that you're suggesting?
- Are there any dietary changes that might help ease my child's symptoms?
- What about exercise? Would additional physical activity help my child?
- Are there any brochures or other printed material that I can take home with me? What websites do you recommend visiting?
What to expect from your doctor
Your child's doctor will have questions for you, too. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
- How long has your child been toilet trained?
- Did your child experience any problems with toilet training?
- Does your child have hard, dry stools that sometimes clog the toilet?
- Does your child take any medications? If so, which ones?
- Does your child regularly resist the urge to use the toilet?
- Does your child experience painful bowel movements?
- How often do you notice stains or fecal matter in your child's underwear?
- Have there been any significant changes in your child's life? For instance, has he or she started a new school, moved to a new town, or experienced a death or divorce in the family?
- Is your child embarrassed or depressed by this condition?
- How have you been managing this issue?
- If your child has siblings, how was their toilet training experience?
What you can do in the meantime
Give your child high-fiber foods, such as fruits and vegetables, and encourage him or her to drink plenty of liquids.
Tests and diagnosis
Your child's doctor may:
- Ask about your child's symptoms.
- Conduct a physical examination, including a digital rectal examination to check for impacted stool. During this exam, the doctor inserts a lubricated, gloved finger into your child's rectum while pressing on his or her abdomen with the other hand.
- Recommend an abdominal X-ray to confirm the presence of impacted stool.
- Suggest that a psychological evaluation be conducted to help determine the cause of your child's symptoms.
Treatments and drugs
Generally, the earlier treatment begins for encopresis, the better. The first step in treatment focuses on clearing the colon of retained, impacted stool. After that, treatment includes encouraging healthy bowel movements. This includes training your child to go to the toilet as soon as reasonably able when the urge to defecate occurs.
There are several methods for clearing the colon and relieving constipation. Your child's doctor will likely recommend one or more of the following:
- Stool softeners, such as lactulose
- Colon lubricants, such as mineral oil
- Rectal suppositories
- Enemas
- More oral fluids
Your child's doctor may recommend abdominal X-rays to check the progress of the colon clearing.
Once the colon has been cleared, it's important to encourage your child to have regular bowel movements. In addition to recommending self-care measures such as a high-fiber diet, your child's doctor may recommend the use of stool softeners for six months or more.
If your child feels shame, guilt, depression or low self-esteem related to encopresis, psychotherapy can be helpful. A psychologist can help your child deal with these feelings and may also give you techniques for teaching your child not to hold stool. Ask your child's doctor for a recommendation.
Lifestyle and home remedies
Don't use enemas or laxatives — including herbal or homeopathic products — without talking to your child's doctor first.
Once your child has been treated for encopresis, it's important that you take steps to encourage softer stools and regular bowel movements. The following tips can help:
- Focus on fiber. Feed your child a diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables and foods high in fiber. Offer whole grains, which are brown — not white — in color.
- Encourage drinking water. Water helps keep stool from hardening. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water. A general guideline is to drink 2 ounces (59.1 milliliters) of nondairy fluid for every gram of fiber.
- Limit dairy products and fats. These can reduce bowel movements. But, dairy products also contain important nutrients, so ask your child's doctor how much dairy your child needs each day.
- Arrange toilet time. Have your child spend five minutes alone on the toilet after two to three meals each day trying to have a bowel movement. This applies only to children who are toilet trained and are at least 4 years old.
- Put a footstool near the toilet. Your child may be more comfortable, and changing the position of his or her legs can put more pressure on the abdomen, making a bowel movement easier.
- Stick with the program for several months. The relapse rate for encopresis is high.
As you help your child overcome encopresis, be patient and use positive reinforcement. Don't blame, criticize or punish your child if he or she has an accident. Instead, offer your unconditional love and support.
Educate yourself on effective toilet training techniques. Avoid starting too early or being too forceful in your methods. Wait until your child is ready, and then use positive reinforcement and encouragement to help him or her progress. Most children are not ready for toilet training until after their second birthdays.
Help your child avoid constipation by providing a diet high in fiber and encouraging your child to drink plenty of water.

PORT MOODY Its not likely a pair of Keystone crooks is going to make it on a best-of list for criminals anytime soon, after botching a break-in at the Esso refinery in Port Moody.
The bizarre set of events began Sunday night after a security guard at the processing centre on Ioco Road came across an abandoned truck in the north section of the compound, near the storage lockers used by maintenance workers.
The truck appeared to have smashed into a pole, suffering extensive damage to the front and drivers side window, and had various forest debris lodged in its undercarriage.
The Port Moody Police Department was called and quickly discovered the car was stolen from Surrey on Jan. 3.
The vehicle was towed from the scene, and the officer left the scene to go to another call.
But that was only the beginning of the incident.
An hour later, the security guard called police back after spotting two men inside the secure compound.
This time the departments K9 unit was called to track the suspects.
One man was eventually arrested outside of another stolen vehicle the thieves had crashed.
The suspect was suffering from various injuries and was treated at hospital.
The second suspect managed to get away.
Eventually, police discovered that multiple portable offices along with several tool-storage containers and vehicles had been broken into.
In addition, the thieves attempted to steal three separate work vehicles, but either crashed them, got them stuck in the mud or blew tires while trying to flee with the stolen goods. Investigators believe the main targets of the attempted thefts were tools and laptops.
The department sent out this tweet Monday morning about the incident: One in custody after elaborate bne at the Ioco refinery. Due to size of property,@cqrcmp and @deltapolice assist. Sabre and dpd dog deployed.
Police said the man arrested is a 40-year-old Burnaby resident with a long history of property crime.
His name was not released.
Police also believe the suspects cut the locks off of old service road gates to gain access to the area.
Its unclear if the thieves got away with anything.

Thanks again, i need the side covers of this housing part exactly the same to keep it waterproof with the other ends. So what about making gaps and lay around some of this epoxy stuff around it to make it waterproof. Or should it really be air to avoid eddy currents ?
Besides......at the moment my motor is really sticking to the housing, so this is no eddy current but really magnetic, so I think I need to make out of aluminum or plastic anyway.

Source: don't lease a used car! | News
Title (Max 100 Characters)
Leasing is often a dicey option for new cars, let alone used ones.
Although leasing is economically attractive because it typically offers less (or no) money down and lower monthly payments than purchasing a vehicle, leasing also includes a lot of fees: end-of-lease fees, mileage fees, wear-and-tear, damage deductions, etc.
In fact, consumer advocate Clark Howard (www.clarkhoward.com) advised consumers should only consider leasing a new vehicle if a manufacturer is offering to subsidize the lease or if a dealership is offering excellent leasing incentives in order to move a bloated inventory.
But Howard added consumers should never consider leasing a used vehicle.
"Used car leases are being pushed because it's hard to figure what you're actually paying," said Howard, referencing an article in The Los Angeles Times. "The imputed interest rate is hidden, and you don't know if you're paying massive charges.
"Moreover, the legalities of the used car lease contracts put you at a disadvantage if later you have a dispute with the seller."

BURLINGTON — The federal judge presiding over the case of a Vermont man charged in the sexual assault and killing of his 12-year-old niece in 2008 has changed his mind about combing the entire state for prospective jurors in the man's trial.
Judge William Sessions III told lawyers during a pre-trial hearing Tuesday in Burlington he now believes an impartial jury for the trial of Michael Jacques can be picked from a pool of up to 5,000 people in northern Vermont.
"The logistics would be extremely difficult for jurors coming up from Brattleboro. I'm convinced we can summon a jury from 5,000 in the northern part of the state," Sessions said.
Jacques, of Randolph, potentially faces the death penalty.
He has pleaded not guilty to charges that he abducted, sexually assaulted and killed Brooke Bennett.
Jury selection is scheduled to start Sept. 3.
Sessions expressed concern that news coverage of the high-profile case will make picking an unbiased jury difficult, forcing the trial to be moved.
"I thought a jury could be selected in Vermont when I denied the change of venue motion, but I wasn't sure," he said.MORE IN This Just InCity Room with the Rich Schneider, President of Norwich University.

Jackson apartments for rent offers residents the opportunity to live, work and play in a quaint town that is home to a thriving historical downtown district and beautiful acres of open land. Jackson started off as a sparsely settled land until a young man by the name of Horace Blackman settled on the 160 acres he purchased. Blackman's connections with larger economic, social, cultural and political people of that time drew more people to travel to the town. However, getting to Jackson was quite difficult due to the lack of adequate transportation systems and inaccessible land. Jackson is surrounded by the Great Lakes, which border the north, east and west areas of the city and state, so apartments in Jackson often provide a bevy of natural scenery.
Jackson apartments for rent today are part of a thriving business community. Residents have a much easier time accessing the town thanks to its location along the major highway intersection at I-94 and US 127. The city is also part of a major railway hub, offering residents the opportunity to travel for work and pleasure with ease.
Families and individuals live active lives and enjoy playing at many of the 27 parks located throughout the Jackson city limits. Golf enthusiasts enjoy friendly competition at the Ella Sharp Park. Families with children have an array of amenities they can indulge in at Nixon Park, such as a skate park and hockey rink for a day full of family fun. Other outdoor attractions in Jackson include the man-made waterfalls at the Cascade Falls park. Kids and individuals enjoy watching the light shows that illuminate 11 of the 16 falls located throughout the park.
Many of the major attractions held near apartments for rent in Jackson are catered around the Ella Sharp Museum of Art and History. The museum offers residents free admissions on Saturday so residents can browse through the six galleries located in the 1860s log cabin. Seasonal festivals sponsored at the museum include the Sugaring & Shearing Festival during the spring, Art, Beer and Wine Festival in the summer and the Fall Harvest Festival.
Jackson apartments for rent are available to residents who qualify as low- to moderate-income levels through the City of Jackson Neighborhood & Economic Operations. The city department works to assist residents and business owners in need of financial assistance and housing rehabilitation services. The City of Jackson Neighborhood & Economic Operations works to acquire, repair and maintain residential and commercial properties to help sustain a livable economic community.
Residents who live in Jackson apartments have an average cost of living that is estimated to be 9.1 percent less than the state average and 13.7 percent less than the national average living index, reported AreaVibes. Residents typically pay $3.83 for a gallon of gas, $4.64 for a cup of coffee and $8.00 for pizza.
According to the 2010 Census, approximately 33,500 individuals reside in Jackson. Apartments for rent in Jackson offer prospective residents the opportunity to live close to work and school.

AN INVESTIGATION has been launched by Isle of Wight police after curry sauce was thrown over a bus driver.
Police today (Tuesday) appealed for witnesses after the driver of a red car threw a plastic container of sauce through the window of the driver's cabin — covering her and the vehicle's controls — just after noon on Tuesday last week (16).
The Number 2 Southern Vectis service was travelling along Great Preston Road, Ryde, at the time.
The bus driver, a 50-year-old woman from the Isle of Wight, was shocked, but uninjured according to police.
Investigating officer PC Al Spence said: "There were around 30 people on the bus at the time so some of them may have seen what happened.
"The passing vehicle was a red car. The actions were reckless and could have led to a road traffic collision because of the shock and distraction it caused to the bus driver."
Witnesses or anyone with information about the identity of the people travelling in the car, are asked to contact PC Spence at Newport Police Station by phoning 101.
Alternatively, information can be given anonymously by phoning Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

If you've ever complained that there's not enough good cracks in Southern Arizona, then you need to go climb this route RIGHT NOW. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is probably the best crack I've climbed in SoAZ. Unfortunately, there's high overhead in terms of a long approach and either mediocre finishing pitches or a complex descent, but the second pitch alone is worth it and there's a number of other good pitches in the area. A good strategy might be to climb the first two pitches and then finish by climbing out on something else. Pitch one begins with an awkward slot that leads to a cool fist crack, then a moderate hand crack, and finally a thin seam up a slab to a big ledge. A nice pitch in its own right. Pitch two is the money: a beautiful splitter finger crack for 120 feet. The rock is superb, though slightly dirty due to neglect. After an old 2 bolt anchor, the crack begins to overhang slightly, and widens to rattly fingers! (There's an old fixed bong in this section that's extremely annoying as it doesn't seem reliable for pro, but takes up what is probably the only thing resembling a hand jam above the old anchor.) There's a decent stance at the old anchor, and belaying here before the crux would also be a sensible option if you're at your limit on this pitch. The bolts are terrible, but good gear is available. I might try this next time. Above pitch two we fixed a nut/sling anchor and rappelled off (with a 70, which just barely makes it to the ledge!), rather than do the last two pitches, which SQL II and Steiger describe as "rather boring." If you use this anchor, double check the back of the sling as the horn it's around is a bit sharp in places.
Starts up and right from the lowest point of Poseiden. On pitch two, SQL II seems to suggest climbing a left-leaning corner rather than the splitter, but Steiger clarifies that this is a variation. At any rate, once you're there, the splitter is the obvious way to go.
double small cams to 1.5 friend, singles above to #4 friend (the 3.5 & 4 friends or equivalents are only necessary for the beginning of P1, and there appears to be a thinner, though less aesthetic variant to the right). Save a 1.5 friend/0.75 camalot for the crux on P2.
Hey Charles you wouldn't happen to have a pic of this thing would you? I can't wait to go check this out!
Not really...it goes up the sunlit face in this photo, but obviously you can't make out the crack. When you go, check out Om and Every Trick in the Book...two pitches that we saw on rap that looked amazing, but we didn't get on. Could make quite a day of 10+/11- on gear making the approach worth it.
I will second Charles' ratings for this climb-just stellar climbing. Good gear, excellent movement, and the longest splitter that I have ever had the pleasure of sinking locks into on the entire mountain. A must-do for the Mt Lemmon tradist. We placed a bolt at the 2nd pitch anchor to augment the nut and sharp-horn sling.
I may have opened a can of worms when I fixed an anchor at that spot last summer. For reasons stated in the description, it's a logical place to have a good rap anchor, but the generally committing nature of climbing at the Reef is worth preserving even at the expense of logical rap anchors. If it hasn't happened already, someone should probably ask Dave Baker and Steve Grossman what they think (I would, but don't know either of them personally).
Good points Charles. My personal opinion is that we should avoid adding fixed protection to existing climbs. (This should be distinguished from replacing old fixed gear.) Having not done this route yet I am unsure as to whether this case should be an exception. A pertinent question for me is whether or not the new anchor is in a better location than the old one. If it is and the FAs are on board then it seems like and we are simply moving the belay to a better spot. I do think the old bolts should be removed in this case, though.
Crux pitch is incredible. For sure one of the best crack climbing pitches in southern AZ. Beautiful, high quality granite and awesome fingers the majority of the way, capped with a steep finish/crux! I'm fairly certain I would never get tired of this climb. The first pitch is high quality too, offwidth to fist to hands to slab.
Not to speak for Andy, but from what I understand, his goal was to replace those old bolts. Evidently they wouldn't pull, so he added a bolt to the upper nut/sling rap anchor above the crux (and about 20-25 feet above the old bolts). In my opinion, the location of the newer rap anchor w/ bolt is superior to where the older bolts are... Then again, I'm not the one who was putting up the route on lead with nuts and hexes!! Probably best to check in with the first ascensionists on this.
Has anyone been able to get that damn bong out of there?
Hey Charles, I'm planning on doing this route soon and will see if I can get rid of it.
I don't normally respond to anonymous posters who sling unfounded assumptions and orders around, but a friend of mine let me know about this and I feel it right to respond. For your information, "black death", I carry a bolt kit on back-country climbs so that I can replace existing anchors. Some people call it "community service". If you've climbed The Odyssey, first of all you know it to be a fantastic climb and, second, you know the nature of the anchors and, especially, the nature of the 3rd pitch. If you haven't climbed it, I encourage you to do so and to reconsider your comments. However: Did we move the fixed anchor? Yes. It consisted of a manky bong and two ancient (1977?) 1/4" bolts. Did we change the nature of the climb? Slightly. Did we consult the FA? No, and that I do regret. Placing the bolt seemed a matter of personal safety at the time. For the record, I've had no luck communicating with DB, I don't have SG's contact info, and RT is RIP at the Reef, I pray. The bolt was placed at the natural end of the 2nd pitch (as indicated in Steiger's and EFR's topos), to augment an untrustworthy belay--a belay that must be solid enough to deal with the fairly dangerous character of the 3rd pitch. Originally, the 2nd pitch appeared to end at the old bolts/bong, and the 3rd pitch then climbed through the actual crux of the climb (indicated as "pitch 2" in the topos), to a belay on a ledge. The old 2nd pitch anchors were inadequate to protect this 3rd pitch. And for your information, I don't relish in placing bolts. The less, the better. I love to climb with gear. This climb (will soon) has 1 bolt, before it had 3. I think most back country climbers would approve. Again, I encourage you to go climb this if you haven't. It's a superb piece of the Reef, and deserves more traffic. Climb the entire thing, including the 3rd pitch. PM me if you want to talk about removing the bolt, it wouldn't be too hard. And if you have SG's contact info, I'd be happy to talk to him about this. -Andy PS-The "Every Trick in the Book" start to "OM" and "Something Unsaid" is entirely worth doing and a great way to approach Poseidon!
Hey Andy, Just climbed this thing yesterday and it was awesome. Personally I think the new belay is in a better spot. For those who don't know where it is, it is about 20 feet higher and on a good ledge. The pitch winds up being 120 feet. My suggestion is that we just check with Grossman or one of the other FAs to see if they are cool with it. If so we can simply remove those two old 1/4" buttonheads. I saw the bong is gone, too. I think the climb will be a lot nicer with two less fixed pieces.
I spoke with Steve Grossman and he gave the approval to leave the new bolt as is, thus creating a safe belay with one bolt and semi-fixed gear (the nut pulled, I've been told). Now you can climb the entire 2nd pitch in all its glory to a logical, safe belay. Thanks to Geir for pulling the old bolts at the "mid-way-belay". If you're feeling frisky, continue on through the 3rd and 4th pitch. Wear a helmet.
Excellent! The holes from the old anchor still need to be filled.
Many thanks to all of you who worked to improve this route. The already amazing second pitch will be that much better without all that old useless fixed gear. Can't wait to get back on it. Andy, just curious, when you say the nut "pulled," you mean in the sense that it actually failed while weighted?! Or simply that someone removed it?

Now that the Wiki group project is over, I think it went well. Working in a group this way was sort of fun. Being in a group made it easier to work on the project even when I didn't want to. It made us more productive. The communication in our group wasn't that great but we still got it done. It wasn't good because when I replied to someone's message, they didn't always reply back very quickly. I think one way you could improve the project for next year is making sure all the team members reply quickly.

In Science class we've been learning about cells and what they do in a living body. Some cells are good but others can be bad, like cancer cells. We did an egg lab, where we measured the outside of the egg and put it in different liquids. This lab taught us about the cell membrane. The job of the cell membrane is to either keep things inside the cell or keep other things out. One thing I've learned that is really neat is how cells multiply. They kind of just cut in half but both new cells are the same as the original cell.

But the sword is only the hilt, the blade is invisible. I like it because I like books that have a lot of action and adventure. That's the book that I'm reading.

1:10pm Monday 11th June 2012
By Peter Truman
Hundreds of people braved the rain to take part in a special naked version of the Olympics yesterday.
Marking London 2012 and inspired by the naked ancient Greek tournaments, organisers of the Naked Bike Ride held a special triathlon with a fun run around Preston Park before the bike ride, ending with a dip at Brighton nudist beach.
The poor weather did not dissuade swathes of people from abandoning their clothes as a protest against oil dependency and promoting cycle safety.
A large crowd gathered as the naked participants met in Preston Park around lunchtime, using body paint to write protest slogans on their skin.
Among them was Tom Jasyton, who had adorned his body with "Caroline Lucas loves me".
The 40-year-old from Brighton, who was attending his third Naked Bike Ride, explained: "I came here today to protest against car culture and oil culture.
"I have this slogan on my chest because what Caroline Lucas from the Green Party believes in is very much in tune with what I believe in."
Another participant, Emma Sandham-King from Brighton, was happy to shed the clothes and show some skin for the cause.
The 30-year-old said: "I'm here to demonstrate the vulnerability of bikers.
"We are just bodies on bikes, we don't have metal about us.
"And today is also about having fun."
Sunday shoppers were left puzzled and titillated at the sight of the horde of nude bikers cycling thought the city centre streets before making their way to the coast.
But Conservative councillor Dawn Barnett was not impressed with the display.
She said: "I'm glad it rained.
"I don't think they should be doing it along the seafront as there are kids that are down there.
"It's not right. If they want to be exhibitionists they should go over the South Downs."

London is calling on Thursday night!
Elementary returns for its second season Thursday night (10/9c, CBS), and like the Parks and Recreation premiere on NBC, it will feature a trip to merry old England when Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) and Joan Watson (Lucy Liu) venture across the pond.
Elementary Sneak Peek: Joan is shocked to meet Sherlock's brother
When a former colleague hits a spot of trouble, Sherlock returns to his homeland but then finds himself in trouble when he crosses paths with his brother Mycroft (Rhys Ifans), whom he hasn't spoken to, much less even mentioned to Joan, in years. Will the brothers be able to reconcile? TVGuide.com caught up with executive producer Rob Doherty to get the scoop on Season 2:read more

And even though Aldo's religious beliefs are now more in line with those of woman-of-science Brennan, look for Bones to take a leap of faith. And speaking of Booth's old friends: Freddie Prinze Jr.'s CIA agent doesn't get much to do in the premiere, but he does make Booth an enticing offer that he'll likely wrestle with all season long.read more
Don't miss the 2nd season premiere of Elementary beginning Thursday, September 26th.

Irene Adler is alive!
That's the bomb Elementary dropped on both Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) and the audience Thursday after a mysterious man claiming to be Moriarty led Holmes straight to his one and only love. Sherlock had long believed Irene (Natalie Dormer) to be dead after discovering a healthy amount of her blood in London. But she is, in fact, alive, having been held captive for the last 18 months. This, of course, raises the question: Why now? With Sherlock hot on Moriarty's trail, how will Irene fit into all of this? TVGuide.com turned to Dormer to get the scoop on Irene's return.

What can we expect for Castle and Beckett's relationship as we head to the end of Castle's season? — Dana ADAM: The bumps that we've hinted at before will be exacerbated by two men who come into Beckett's life. First, Beckett will be assigned to protect multimillionaire inventor Erik Vaughn (Ioan Gruffudd) — in his private hotel penthouse. "If Castle aspired to be someone, he'd aspire to be this guy," creator Andrew W. Marlowe says. "Castle's really determined to solve the case and get his girlfriend away from him." During their alone time, Erik will ask Beckett some tough questions about where her relationship with Castle is headed. Unfortunately, as Beckett wrestles with those questions in the season's penultimate episode, she'll cross paths with a federal investigator (Carlos Bernard) who might offer some different answers. "He opens Beckett's eyes on other possibilities that might be out there for her," Marlowe teases.

Russell Brand Dating Chelsea Handler's Step-Daughter
Russell Brand has found love again, and the object of his affection is hotel heiress Alessandra Balazs.
A source close to the couple told Mail Online exclusively, that Russell and the 23-year old have been 'dating for several months now'.

Thinking Like a Politician Can Benefit Your Career
BackBy Katherine Spencer Lee
The upcoming presidential election has focused a lot of attention on the political process and those who've been successful in it. While your career aspirations may not include a run for the White House, there is much you can learn from respected politicians. The same strategies that have allowed these individuals to rise to the top are similar to those needed to stand out in the business world.
As you consider your professional goals in IT, it's worth thinking like a politician. Here are some of the characteristics of strong leaders that can help you get ahead.
They're passionate about their work.
If you've ever watched politicians debate the issues, you know how committed they can be to the causes that matter most to them. They inspire others through their enthusiasm, focus and energy. While not all aspects of your job may be exciting, you should convey a true interest in working with technology. This may come across through actions such as touting the benefits of a revolutionary new product to your manager or sharing some little-known, interesting features of an application with colleagues. People should get the sense that you love working in IT and care about what you do.
They see the big picture.
The best political leaders look beyond the obvious and consider the broader impact of decisions. To move into leadership roles in IT, you need to be able to do the same. Companies want technology professionals who can integrate IT strategy into the long-term goals of the organization. If your manager doesn't discuss how your work supports larger objectives at the company, take the time to ask.
For instance, if you're assigned the installation of new software in a department, learn what you can about why the product was selected and how it will benefit the group. You'll show you're interested in the big-picture impact of your projects.
They're connected.
Great politicians are masters at networking. Building strong relationships allows them to get measures approved and gain the necessary funding for their campaigns. In IT, knowing the right people also can be critical to your career success. After all, if decision-makers in the firm know you and the contributions you make to the organization, you're more likely to advance.
Try to form connections with people throughout the firm. When attending company events such as birthday celebrations and the annual picnic, take the initiative to talk to managers and employees you haven't met before. Getting involved in group activities such as team sports and fundraising causes are a couple of easy ways to network.
They know how to compromise.
Those successful in public office have a knack for reaching agreements, even under challenging circumstances. They are great listeners who take into account all perspectives and recognize the value of making concessions when necessary to finalize a deal. Knowing how to compromise also is valuable in IT, where you may be negotiating purchases with vendors or making a case for particular technology strategies with management.
They're involved in the community.
Participating in activities outside the office can be a great way to raise your visibility and expand your base of contacts. You'll gain opportunities that you might not have in your current position. For instance, volunteering to help a small nonprofit organization set up its network not only can be personally meaningful, but it also can help you expand your IT expertise and gain leadership abilities.
Consider the politicians you admire most and the characteristics that have made them stars. Do you possess the same qualities? The lessons you learn from mirroring them may be what it takes to move your career forward.

Great Shirt, Not the Correct Image
By travelerABC
from Florida
Best Uses
Overall, this is a great shirt. My only complaint involves the color. I ordered the Cobalt Blue Air shirt. While I absolutely love the feel and texture of the shirt (so comfortable), the shirt I received did not match the color scheme shown on the website. The image shows a blue shirt with an orange trim on it. The shirt I received did not have orange trim--it was all blue. Some people may prefer that, although I was disappointed since my alumni colors are orange and blue, and that's why I originally purchased the shirt. I thought it was comfortable though, so I didn't feel like messing with the hassle of returning it.
