Rheumatic fever
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/rheumatic-fever/DS00250
Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory disease that can develop as a complication of inadequately treated strep throat. Strep throat is caused by infection with group A streptococcus bacteria.
Rheumatic fever is most common in 5- to 15-year-old children, though it can develop in younger children and adults. Although it's very rare in United States and other developed countries, rheumatic fever remains common in many developing nations.
Rheumatic fever can cause permanent damage to the heart, including damaged heart valves and heart failure. Treatments can reduce tissue damage from inflammation, lessen pain and other symptoms, and prevent the recurrence of rheumatic fever.
Rheumatic fever symptoms may vary. Some people may have several symptoms, while others experience only a few. The symptoms may also change during the course of the disease. The onset of rheumatic fever usually occurs about two to four weeks after a strep throat infection.
Rheumatic fever signs and symptoms — which result from inflammation in the heart, joints, skin or central nervous system — may include:
- Fever
- Painful and tender joints — most often the ankles, knees, elbows or wrists; less often the shoulders, hips, hands and feet
- Pain in one joint that migrates to another joint
- Red, hot or swollen joints
- Small, painless nodules beneath the skin
- Chest pain
- Sensation of rapid, fluttering or pounding heartbeats (palpitations)
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath
- Flat or slightly raised, painless rash with a ragged edge (erythema marginatum)
- Jerky, uncontrollable body movements (Sydenham chorea or St. Vitus' dance) — most often in the hands, feet and face
- Outbursts of unusual behavior, such as crying or inappropriate laughing, that accompanies Sydenham chorea
When to see a doctor
Your child should see a doctor if he or she has signs or symptoms of strep throat. Proper treatment of strep can prevent rheumatic fever. Call your doctor if your child has any of the following signs or symptoms:
- A sore throat without cold symptoms, such as a runny nose
- A sore throat accompanied by tender, swollen lymph glands (nodes)
- Rash
- Difficulty swallowing anything, including saliva
- Thick or bloody discharge from the nose, which is more likely in children under 3 years of age
Call your doctor about a fever in the following situations:
- Newborns up to 6 weeks with a fever of 100 F (37.8 C)
- Children ages 6 weeks to 2 years with a temperature of 102 F (38.9 C) or higher
- Children age 2 or older with a fever of 103 F (39.4 C) or higher
- Any fever that lasts more than three days
Also, see your doctor if your child shows any other signs or symptoms of rheumatic fever.
Rheumatic fever can occur after an infection of the throat with a bacterium called Streptococcus pyogenes, or group A streptococcus. Group A streptococcus infections of the throat cause strep throat or, less commonly, scarlet fever. Group A streptococcus infections of the skin or other parts of the body rarely trigger rheumatic fever.
The exact link between strep infection and rheumatic fever isn't clear, but it appears that the bacterium "plays tricks" on the immune system. The strep bacterium contains a protein similar to one found in certain tissues of the body. Therefore, immune system cells that would normally target the bacterium may treat the body's own tissues as if they were infectious agents — particularly tissues of the heart, joints, skin and central nervous system. This immune system reaction results in inflammation.
If your child receives prompt and complete treatment with an antibiotic to eliminate strep bacteria — in other words, taking all doses of the medication as prescribed — there's little to no chance of developing rheumatic fever. If your child has one or more episodes of strep throat or scarlet fever that aren't treated or not treated completely, he or she may — but won't necessarily — develop rheumatic fever.
Risk factors
Factors that may increase the risk of rheumatic fever include:
- Family history. Some people may carry a gene or genes that make them more likely to develop rheumatic fever.
- Type of strep bacteria. Certain strains of strep bacteria are more likely to contribute to rheumatic fever than are other strains.
- Environmental factors. A greater risk of rheumatic fever is associated with overcrowding, poor sanitation, and other conditions that may easily result in the rapid transmission or multiple exposures to strep bacteria.
Inflammation caused by rheumatic fever may last for a few weeks to several months. In some cases, the inflammation may cause long-term complications.
Rheumatic heart disease is permanent damage to the heart caused by the inflammation of rheumatic fever. Problems are most common with the valve between the two left chambers of the heart (mitral valve), but the other valves may be affected. The damage may result in one of the following conditions:
- Valve stenosis. This condition is a narrowing of the valve, which results in decreased blood flow.
- Valve regurgitation. This condition is a leak in the valve, which allows blood to flow in the wrong direction.
- Damage to heart muscle. The inflammation associated with rheumatic fever can weaken the heart muscle, resulting in poor pumping function.
Damage to the mitral valve, other heart valves or other heart tissues can cause problems with the heart later in life. Resulting conditions may include:
- Atrial fibrillation, an irregular and chaotic beating of the upper chambers of the heart (atria)
- Heart failure, an inability of the heart to pump enough blood to the body
Preparing for your appointment
If your child has signs or symptoms of rheumatic fever, you're likely to start by seeing your family doctor or a specialist in children's medicine (pediatrician). However, your doctor may refer you to a heart specialist (pediatric cardiologist) for some diagnostic tests. Because appointments can be brief, it's a good idea to prepare for your appointment.
What you can do
Make a list ahead of time that you can share with your doctor. Your list should include:
- Symptoms your child is experiencing or has recently experienced, even if the symptoms don't seem related to each other
- Recent illnesses your child has had
- Medications, including vitamins or supplements, that your child takes or has recently taken
- Questions for your doctor
List questions for your doctor from most important to least important in case time runs out. If you think your child is showing signs or symptoms of rheumatic fever, you may ask some of the following questions.
- Does my child have rheumatic fever?
- What other conditions could cause these symptoms?
- What kinds of tests will my child need now and in the future?
- What is the best treatment?
- Will rheumatic fever or its treatment have any effect on my child's other health conditions?
- How much do I need to restrict my child's activities?
- Is my child still contagious? For how long?
- What type of follow-up is needed?
- Are there any brochures or other printed material that I can take home with me? What websites do you recommend visiting?
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment at any time you don't understand something.
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
- When did your child's signs and symptoms first appear?
- How have these signs and symptoms changed over time?
- Has your child had a cold or flu recently? What were the symptoms?
- Has your child been exposed to a known case of strep throat?
- Was your child recently diagnosed with strep throat or scarlet fever?
- Did your child take all of the antibiotics to treat strep throat or scarlet fever as prescribed?
Tests and diagnosis
Your doctor makes a diagnosis of rheumatic fever based on:
- Signs and symptoms you report
- Evidence of inflammation
- Evidence of recent group A streptococcal infection
Physical exam
Your child's doctor will conduct a thorough physical examination that may include:
- Checking the joints for signs of inflammation
- Examining the skin for nodules under the skin or a rash
- Listening to the heart for abnormal rhythms, murmurs or muffled sounds that may indicate inflammation of the heart
- Conducting a series of simple movement tests to detect indirect evidence of inflammation of the central nervous system
Tests for strep infection
If your child was already diagnosed with a strep infection, your doctor may not order any additional tests for the bacterium. If your doctor orders a test, it will most likely be a blood test that can detect antibodies to strep bacteria circulating in the blood. The actual bacteria may no longer be detected in your child's throat tissues or blood.
Electrocardiogram (ECG)
An electrocardiogram — also called an ECG or EKG — records electrical signals as they travel through your child's heart. Your doctor can look for patterns among these signals that indicate inflammation of the heart or poor heart function.
An echocardiogram uses sound waves to produce live-action images of the heart. This common test may enable your doctor to detect altered structures within the heart. Damage to heart valves isn't likely to occur early in the disease, but an echocardiogram can show such problems.
Treatments and drugs
The goals of treatment for rheumatic fever are to destroy any remaining group A streptococcal bacteria, relieve symptoms, control inflammation and prevent recurring episodes of rheumatic fever.
Treatments used for rheumatic fever include:
Antibiotics. Your child's doctor will prescribe penicillin or another antibiotic to eliminate any remaining strep bacteria that may exist in your child's body.
After your child has completed the full antibiotic treatment, your doctor will begin another course of antibiotics to prevent recurrence of rheumatic fever. This preventive treatment usually continues until your child is at least 20 years old. If an older teenager has had rheumatic fever, he or she may continue taking the antibiotics past age 20 to complete a minimum five-year course of preventive treatment.
People who experienced inflammation of the heart when they had rheumatic fever may be advised to take the preventive antibiotic treatment much longer or even for life.
- Anti-inflammatory treatment. Your doctor will prescribe a pain reliever, such as aspirin or naproxen (Anaprox, Naprosyn, others), to reduce inflammation, fever and pain. If symptoms are severe or your child isn't responding to the anti-inflammatory drugs, your doctor may prescribe a corticosteroid, such as prednisone.
- Anticonvulsant medications. If the involuntary movements of Sydenham chorea are severe, your doctor may prescribe an anticonvulsant, such as valproic acid (Depakene, Stavzor) or carbamazepine (Carbatrol, Equetro, others).
Long term care
Discuss with your doctor what type of follow-up and long term care your child will need. Heart damage from rheumatic fever may not show up until many years after the acute illness. Your child should be informed that he or she had rheumatic fever, and when an adult should discuss this with his or her doctor.
Lifestyle and home remedies
Your doctor may recommend bed rest for your child and may ask you to restrict his or her activities until inflammation, pain and other symptoms have improved. If inflammation is present in heart tissues, your doctor may recommend strict bed rest for a few weeks to a few months, depending on the degree of inflammation.
The only known way to prevent rheumatic fever is to treat strep throat infections or scarlet fever promptly with a full course of appropriate antibiotics.

Winger Love comes back in to the Scottish cold
11:00am Friday 4th October 2013 in Sport
Triple: Former Harlequins winger Miles Mantella, right, scored a hat-trick for London Scottish on Saturday
London Scottish back James Love feels Saturday's 27-6 home win over Nottingham Rugby proves they can mix it with the Championship's best, writes Andy Weston.
The Athletic Ground outfit were not at their best, but produced a devastating last quarter with Miles Mantella, pictured right, scoring a hat-trick of tries to get the win.
It was Love's first start of the season and he hopes his performance means it will not be his last.
The full back-cum-winger said: "It was nice to get a first start. I had a pretty solid game and hopefully I can carry on and make a
"To get the win against a top four team last year is really good and shows we can compete in this league against top teams.
"We want the Athletic Ground to be a fortress and a hard place to come for
visiting teams and that was a perfect start."
Tonight Scottish travel to Plymouth Albion Love's former club, and the goal-kicker hopes to make it three league wins from four before British & Irish Cup break.
"They have a good crowd and are very
resiliant, but I believe we can go there and get the right result," he added.
"We just need to make sure we are all switched on.
"They gave me my first shot in the Championship. It was quite far away from my family and friends in London. That was the main reason I left."
Meanwhile, new Scottish backs coach Mike Friday says he has quickly settled into his role at the Championship club.
Friday took in last Saturday's 27-6 win against Nottingham Rugby but started at Scottish in an official capacity on Monday.
"There has been a lot for the boys to take in but it has been a good week's training," he said.
"We have looked at a few different things on how we do things slightly differently in our attacking patterns. It is all part of the bigger

Hello everyone~~
It's Infinite's leader, Gyu!~~~~~
You're surprised since I'm writing a post in a really long time, right?
Ah~ It has already been around 2 weeks since we had our comeback~ There are a lot of promotions lately as well~
We're also doing a lot of music broadcasts, but is everyone watching? ^^
Ah~ Before this comeback, I think a lot of things had happened~ First off, there was Infinite's first solo concert and an encore concert~ Also, we did promotions in Japan as well~ And then we brought a new album after a long time~ And had our comeback!~ But the showcase was really large=scale, right? I rode the helicopter for the first time in my life~ And came back after meeting Inspirits all over the nation. The helicopter was more comfortable than I thought it would be and I wasn't scared at all ^-^
That helicopter's nothing~ ㅋㅋㅋ
We're doing a lot of music broadcasts lately after a long time~ But when I see Inspirits who come early in the morning to cheer us on, a part of me feels touched and my heart somewhat twinges~ ㅜㅜ It was like that ever since a long time ago and~ it's something I feel during concert stages or even everyday now, but I think that because there is the existence of Inspirits who cheer us on and look at us when we're on stage, I feel very reassured and I gain strength.
Truthfully, the reason I wrote this post is because I suddenly wanted to tell everyone the feelings I had at this time. So after finishing our schedules and eating food and ice cream with my members, then showering, I suddenly turned on my computer and am writing this on impulse~
Because I am a cool guy!!!!!!!! ㅋㅋ
Although I wasn't able to express my feelings a lot because I was normally embarrassed.. I was occasionally jealous of Woohyun, who would throw hearts to his heart's content. It's really hard for me because I'm shy..
Anyways, thank you so much. Thank you so much for staying together with us and promising us that we'll be together in the future as well ^^
Ah, also they say that we have a fansigning tomorrow after a really long time, right? Hoot ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Seems like it'll be fun…
I will show you how much of a cool guy I am tomorrow!!! ㅋㅋㅋ
I'll have to stop it here now since Woohyun is being really loud next to me because he's practicing his script for being a one-day MC tomorrow~~
Then everyone, I'll see you tomorrow~~~~~~ ^-^
And I'll show you a new side of me soon as well~ Hahaha
Ah, and after posting this and reading the comments~ They asked if I wrote this after seeing the cafe header's change, but~ That's not it? I'm getting misunderstood ^^

Short Biography
M. Ward has been releasing consistently brilliant albumssince his debut, Duet for Guitars #2,in 2000. Ward's music is instantly recognizable: just listen for his smokyvoice (though he doesn't smoke); lyrics that can move from deeply affecting towisely humorous in the space of a song; and his quick work across a guitar'sfretboard. End of Amnesia, Ward'ssophomore album, appeared in 2001, followed by Transfiguration of Vincent, which landed on many critics' best-oflists for 2003. Transistor Radio—atribute to the independent radio stations of yesteryear—came in 2005 and wonWard further praise from fans and critics. Ward's latest album, Post-War, is his first recorded with afull band and offers further proof that this indie folk singer/songwriter is amongmusic's most gifted young artists.
Ticketmaster recently spoke with M. Ward about the newalbum, his upcoming U.S.tour and his many other musical projects.
Ticketmaster: Yournew album Post-War just came out onAugust 22, and you have a U.S.tour kicking off very soon in September. Are you excited to get out and playthese new songs for a live audience?
M. Ward: I am. You know, I've had a year's break fromtraveling and my batteries are energized, so yeah, I feel ready to tour. I'mespecially excited about this one, 'cause I get to tour with the band that Imade the record with. So, yeah, it's exciting. It's the biggest band I've everbrought on tour. A bunch of novelties for me.
TM: You recorded thenew album with a full band, which is new for you. How do you think that hasaffected the music?
MW: Well, I wanted a more grounded sound than the way thatthe Transistor Radio record sounded,which, to me, is a little bit floaty and maybe sentimental at times. So havingthe drums as a foundation was part of the point for this new record...to goagainst the record that came before it.
TM: Who were yourcollaborators on the album and how did you get together with them?
MW: Uh, let's see. Well, Jim James came into town, becausehe was playing a show with My Morning Jacket. We scheduled a few days so wecould just play around in the studio. He's always great to work with. I've beenworking with him off and on for the last three years, I guess it is. And he'sjust somebody I look up to, somebody who's capable of doing anything. He's incredible.
TM: Who else were youplaying with?
MW: Let's see. Adam Selzer, who engineered most of my firstcouple of records and engineered a couple of these new songs. Mike Coykendall, whoengineered most of my last couple of records, engineered most of this one. RachelBlumberg, who's a great drummer that I've been working with off and on for thelast couple years. She just left The Decemberists. And there's a guy named JordanHudson, who just recently left this band called The Thermals. They're all Portland bands. So I feelreally lucky to be able to have them on tour with me.
TM: The new albumdeals with war, loss and change. What got you thinking about these themes?
MW: The headlines of the newspapers. Books that I've beenreading. Songs that I've been hearing - ever since I was a kid really. Youknow, the biggest inspiration is and has always been older records and olderproduction ideas...songs that have some of the greatest production in the world,by people like Phil Spector and Brian Wilson. And the records that came out ofSun Studios were a huge inspiration.
TM: On past tours,you've played both solo and with a backing band. You mentioned for the upcomingtour you will be playing with a full band. How would you compare playing soloversus playing with a full band?
MW: It's like apples and oranges really. They really don'thave anything in common.
TM: What are the prosof playing solo?
MW: Well, the pros of playing solo are you don't really haveto worry about other people's schedules to rehearse, you don't have to worryabout waking up the neighbors, and you don't have to write a set list. But thepros of having a band are the obvious ones. The camaraderie, I guess you couldsay.
TM: I'm interested inyour early days as a musician. You're a phenomenal guitarist, so when did youfirst pick up the guitar and become interested in playing?
MW: I picked up the guitar when I was about 14. And Ilearned how to play by reading chord charts in Beatles books, and that was theway I learned how to play really. That taught me every guitar chord that I willever need to learn. If you go through their catalog and you're a guitarist,you'll be pretty hard pressed to find a chord that they didn't put into one oftheir songs - except if you're getting way out there, and I don't really getway out there that much. Thelonious Monk chords, you know, which are hard forme to incorporate into (my songs)...you know, I've never tried to incorporate a TheloniousMonk chord into an old folk song or something, but maybe one of these days. (laughs)
TM: I know you lovethe Beatles, but who were some of your other early influences?
MW: Well, the first live band that I ever witnessed was Firehousein Los Angeles.And Mike Watt's been a really big inspiration, and it's especially exciting forthis tour, because he's going to be supporting the California shows. So that just freaks me outhow great it is.
TM: I know you werein a band before you went solo called Rodriguez. What kind of music was theband playing?
MW: You know, we were ripping off fIREHOSE. It was a trioand (we were) listening to fIREHOSE and Sonic Youth records and eventually morecountry-influenced music.
TM: Is the Rodriguezmusic available anywhere?
MW: No, but I don't think you're missing much. (laughs)
TM: Let's talk aboutyour songwriting process. Do you start with lyrics, a guitar riff?
MW: There's no formula. The only formulaic thing about it isthat it starts on the four track.
TM: Did the fact thatyou were working with a full band for the new record affect the songwriting atall?
MW: The composition I do alone with the four track, so Ibring in the band and the full arrangement when it's time to flesh the songout. So that's how all songs start. Every record I've made is a combination ofold four track recordings with new four track recordings.
TM: Does writing anew song come quickly for you or does it take shape over a long period of time?
MW: There's no formula for that one either. Sometimes theycome like a lightning bolt, and sometimes it takes years to finish.
TM: I really loveyour cover songs. There's a Daniel Johnston song on the new album ("To GoHome"), and you've done several other covers in the past. How do you choosewhich songs to cover?
MW: You know, it's really as simple as you just like thesong and it gives you a certain joy playing the song. And that's about it, youknow. You try songs out and if they feel right then you continue to play them.If it doesn't make you feel very good, then you stop right away.
TM: I also want totalk about your production work. You co-produced Jenny Lewis' solo debut. Canyou describe what it was like working with her and how you two hooked up?
MW: We've known each other for a few years because RiloKiley was my backing band on a tour back in 2002 or '03. And we've just beenfriends ever since. She came into the recording process with her songs alreadywritten and having some production ideas. We just batted ideas around and justhad fun in the studio. It was a blast.
TM: Has producinganother artist's work affected the production on your own album?
MW: Well, learning other people's songs always changes your ownunderstanding of music and that's the way I learned how to play, learning otherpeople's songs. Eventually everything that you learn turns into one big, giantstew, and basically that's the stew that the records come out of. So it's hardto put your finger on exactly what influenced what with any exact precision.
TM: Do you have plansto produce more albums in the future?
MW: I'm producing a friend of mine. He was in a band calledFor Stars. His name is Carlos Forster. And that should be out next year. I'mreally excited about that project.
TM: What kind ofmusic does he play?
MW: His songs remind me of a cross between Big Star andBrian Wilson.
TM: Are you going tobe lending any guitar work to the album or just production?
MW: Yeah, a bunch of guitar on it. It's been a blast, andit's almost done.
TM: You have a new,animated video out for "Chinese Translation." I don't think I've seen a videofrom you before. How did the video come about?
MW: A friend of a friend turned me on to this animator whois from North Carolina,and I always loved the idea of doing a music video where I don't have to doanything. (laughs) So I was hooked, you know.
TM: So you're happywith it?
MW: I love it. I love it. I didn't have to wear one ounce ofmakeup, you know. (laughs)
TM: You recently playedThe Late Show with David Letterman. Ifound out too late and missed it. Maybe you can fill me in. How did it go?
MW: It was great. It was a blast. It's on YouTube. I justgot an email that it's on YouTube.
MW: "Chinese Translation." We had a great time. It was myfirst time doing Letterman. It was really great. It was at the tail end of a UK tour, so itwas just the perfect way to end that tour.
In-depth Biography
Portland, Oregon-based singer/songwriter M. Ward (born Matthew Stephen Ward) grew up listening to gospel and country, two genres that figure prominently in his breezy, West Coast take on Americana. After a six-year stint with the folk-rock trio Rodriguez, Ward began sketching out songs deeply rooted in the classic traditions of American country-folk. Ward's first solo effort came in the form of Duet for Guitars #2, which was written and recorded while he was living between Chicago and various locales on the West Coast. Eventually, the album was placed in the hands of the ever enigmatic Giant Sand mastermind Howe Gelb, who released it on his own Ow Om Recordings in the fall of 2000. The record enjoyed favorable reviews and a considerable amount of attention in underground rock circles, and Ward supported it with a handful tours throughout the United States and Europe.
Released in 2001, End of Amnesia helped to further develop Ward's penchant for dusty, timeless narratives and bluesy, back-porch ballads, but it wasn't until 2003's Transfiguration of Vincent that Ward would begin to penetrate the mainstream. His first release for indie darling Merge Records, Vincent cashed in on the Great Depression obsession of the post-O Brother, Where Art Thou? gold rush, paving the way for 2005's Transistor Radio and 2006's Post-War, both of which firmly established Ward as a major player in the burgeoning indie folk/adult alternative rock scene. In 2008, after collaborating on a song for the film The Go-Getter with actress Zooey Deschanel, the unlikely duo released a well-received album of covers and Deschanel originals called Volume One under the moniker She & Him. Ward returned to the studio later that year to begin work on his next full-length offering; 2009's Hold Time, which featured guest vocals from Deschanel, Jason Lytle (Grandaddy), and Lucinda Williams, arrived in early 2009. 2010 and 2011 saw the release of two more She & Him outings (Volume 2 and A Very She & Him Christmas), followed in 2012 by his seventh proper solo outing, A Wasteland Companion, which was recorded in eight different studios and featured contributions from 18n different musicians including Howe Gelb, Bright Eyes' Mike Mogis, Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley, Devotchka's Tom Hagerman, and Deschanel. ~ Nate Cavalieri & James Christopher Monger, Rovi

We went to a wedding here recently and stayed overnight. The wedding itself was lovely, and the staff at the venue were friendly. However, the food served at the wedding breakfast was rather bland, and the draught lager was flat and frankly undrinkable. Our party was allocated three adjoining rooms in the 'Annexe'.

dovetail trailers
i'm thinking about dovetailing my trailer this winter to give me a project to do. my trailer is kind of short anyways. cant remember exactly what it is, 13' seems to stick out in my mind. well i was thinking of adding on about 3' to it, this would be the dovetail portion. does the dovetail really provide any benifit? i just think it'd be nice to have a little more lenght and have smaller, lighter ramps.
i'd probably cut my current ramps in half. use about half for the new ramp, a small portion for a vertical support when ramps are down, and then add spring assist. not sure yet if i'm going to shift the axles. it rides like a dream right now so i really dont want to mess with that. also fix up my fenders and finish it off with some fresh paint in the spring. here's a bad pic of my current setup:

i like the dove tail on mine. i can just drive right on and not even use the ramps at all.
if it tows good now then just park the jeep in the same spot just add the tail how you like and enjoy.

Your going to loose ground clearence on the trailer--obvious but something to think about-depending on where you go to wheel. And 3 ft of trailer is going to move your cog towards the back-taking off tonque weight---just things to ponder

not without the ramps. i probably could if i really wanted to but i'm sure the truck wouldnt like it
i downloaded some drawings off of the Big Tex site and I'm going to see how that matches up to mine and go from there.

I'm not old, honest...
A short dovetail added on would give you the benefit of not needing your ramps. Your COG will not change much as long as you continue to strap your rig down where you currently strap it.
HOWEVER, if you start hauling longer, heavier vehicles on it because you now have a longer trailer, you will have a balance problem because your axles are too far forward. BTW, that trailer looks longer than 13 ft. |

it was just a guess, i dont have the trailer near me to measure. i just know its shorter than most trailers.

I am interested in purchasing a mind-mapping program. I have seen a lot about MindManager and Personal Brain. Any suggestions and/or comments about these two programs? Which one should I choose?
I am interested in purchasing a mind-mapping program. I have seen a lot about MindManager and Personal Brain. Any suggestions and/or comments about these two programs? Which one should I choose?
Hi Longstreet!
I am using MindManager for Mac. It's quick, it's easy, it's pricey for what it is, and it's a version behind the Windows version. It pretty much does what I need, but it is not very mac-like. I also have tried out Freemind, which is free and more compatible with iPhone mindmap programs, but have not yet spent enough time to see if I will switch to it.
If you have never used mind-mapping software, free is the way to start. I find that my use is mostly brainstorming, to get projects moving, and I transition out of the mind map into an outline/project support format fairly quickly. I don't use mind maps as knowledge maps. I have found that technical ideas don't work all that well in mind maps: they're too long and complicated to be grasped as a gestalt. In that regard, I don't know if Personal Brain is really a mind mapping program. I have only looked at in the most cursory way, but it seems more oriented to knowledge maps. It is perhaps more like Tinderbox, a rather heavy-seeming mac program.
Hi Longstreet,
There are some interesting discussions of the differences/benefits of each on the Personal Brain forum at www.thebrain.com.
Also, note that David Allen will be the guest on a Personal Brain webinar regarding Personal Brain and GTD on June 3rd:
I've used, and continue to use both. Personal Brain serves as a repository for all the information in my life. Some of that information is in mind maps. I use Mind Manager as a tool for thinking, and Personal Brain as a tool for storing and accessing my thinking. You can do the same thing with multiple linked Mind Manager maps, but Personal Brain does it far more elegantly.
That said, there are those who view Personal Brain as a better mindmapping tool. However, it doesn't adhere to traditional mindmapping rules, and I find Mind Manager better for brainstroming as a result.
Check out the Personal Brain forum and the webinar, and make up your own mind. Note that the webinars are all archived after a few days if you can't make it live:
Good luck!
Here are a few resources that can help you learn more about Mind Mapping and GTD...
David Allen Webinar
GTD & MindManager My own use and some map examples
Some useful GTD add-ins to consider:
Gyronix (GyroQ, Results Manager)
TPAssist (TPAssist & TPAssist Capture)
Also, the brain uploads MindManager maps so it could be possible to leverage both as well!
Good luck and I'm happy to answer any mapping questions you may have.
Sorry for a little off-topic, I wanna ask those of you who are use mindmapping tools like MindManager.
I was thinking about a feature in a ToDo list which will allow you to convert mindmap into the project. So, after you upload your mindmap file into the ToDo list it creates a project with folders and tasks structure based on mindmap.
Please let me know what do you think about this feature. Is it handy for you?
Take a look at Buzan's iMindmap (www.imindmap.com): the most creative and fun to use mindmapping software.
Have fun!
A free one I have come accross is MindRaider (http://mindraider.sourceforge.net/). I have not used any mind mapping SW (except freemind) but I would like to ask how this one stacks up against all the others people are using out there.
I would like to use them for Knowledge Management. So far I would like a cross between MindRaider and PiggyDB (for storage).
MindManager and PersonalBrain are different beasts. While they can both be used for similar activities, their focus is very different.
In MindManager you create a single file that is a topic-centered mind map.
In PersonalBrain you create a network that has no center and has links to notes, documents, websites and many other things.
PersonalBrain is great for demonstrating a _network_ of ideas. MindManager is great for describing layers and layers of detail around a specific topic.
To prudnikov, there are some capabilities for project management within Mind Manager. Each node can have dates attached to it and such. And I believe the Gyronix ResultsManager is an add-on that makes ToDo work even better within Mind Manager.

Thanks for posting the cute pics, TeresaL. Xiezhi looks so young and boyish! A really different look from his cool one in Westside Story.
Only 1 more day to go until the album is released!!!
YAY!!! 2moro 56 album is released.
can`t wait anymore..
<3 56
56 appeared on today's wangyu. Here are the clips:
Talking about the various boybands: http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/V37QFLKsd74/
56 talking about their album & promo trip:
Wow, their 4th album is really huge.
Last edited by exadel; 01-05-08 at 11:55 AM. Reason: added the youtube clips
I read in Tony's thread and the 5566 thread in asian fanatics forum that their new album is delayed until Monday and there were a lot of people asking about their new album. A lot of people tried to pick up the album today, but it wasn't in stock.
I think that's great news that they are so much in demand. Here is the link:

I just checked Yesasia and they are sold out.
Ya, I tried to collect the CD today but was told that I can only get it next week. If the delay is due to stock shortage because they did not expect so many orders, then I am happy to wait. Of course, I satisfied myself by listening to the songs online first. Apart from the 3 songs that they have already sung during the promo trip, their other songs are also very nice. The slower songs are really beautiful and the faster ones are rather cute and catchy.
Besides my pre-orders, I now want to get the regular album as well. I want the DVD and pictures that comes with the regular album.
Clip of today's wangyu on this afternoon's autograph session held in Taiwan:

I love that picture of Xiezhi in the white jacket! Thanks, exadel. Are those pictures from the regular version CD or from Play magazine?
Credit to Cat
Ahhh- Xiezhi looks so happy in those pictures! I guess they started appearing on some Taiwanese shows already to promote their new album.
The songs in this album are so nice. One of their best albums -definitely!
bonniec1, I think the picture of xiezhi in the white jacket should be the pictures that comes with the regular album. As for the Jan08 Play magazine, there is a write-up on their promo in Malaysia. So, the pictures in the magazine are from that event.
56 mentioned at their Taiwan autograph session that they had been busy recording shows for the Lunar New Year. The pictures that TeresaL posted are from 2 of these shows and there were news reports about these yesterday.
The 1st picture with 徐乃麟 is for the show 「无间道不道」. In this show, they talked about their peculiarity or flaw. Xiezhi said that he had become more forgetful. He usually can't remember the unimportant things e.g. at the end of a day's filming, he won't be able to recall what were the topics discussed and who were the guests in the shows that he was on earlier.
The rest of the pictures are from the show 麻辣天后宫 which I think will be shown on LNY since the set is all in red. They had psychics or fortune-tellers (or whatever you call them) to predict their career & love life in year 2008. 詹惟中 said that their career is on the rise and June 08 is the critical month. They said that 56 should stay together as a group and they will do well in China & Hong Kong. And here's what the psychics said about their love life:
Renfu will have lots of (桃花) female attraction & so may have an affair. But Renfu loves his family especially his daughter (they deduce this from the shape of his beautiful lips) so he may be able to restrain himself.
Xiezhi & Ding Xiaoqin will not marry this year. Xiezhi will probably marry when he is 33 years old.
Shaowei is popular with the opposite sex and may date more than one girl at a time (偷吃劈腿的行为). He is said to be extremely good in that aspect ... you know what I mean
Mengzhe will have relationship problems - they deduce this from his thick lips.
Knowing 56, they probably had lots of fun teasing each other when they hear what the psychics said. I don't think that 56 believe in such predictions, and xiezhi had said many times in his Lucky Strike show that working hard is more important as that can change your "pre-determined" path in life.
I hope I don't offend anyone, but frankly I also don't believe any of these psychic stuff. How can all the millions of Scorpions, Leos (stars) etc or Tigers, Rats (chinese zodiacs) etc in this world have the same kind of luck each year or share the same characteristics. And how can a person's life be shaped by their name. Furthermore, predictions about 56 for the year 2007 also didn't come true.
Btw, in case you are wondering why are they making funny faces in one of those pictures, it is because next year is the year of the rat and they are trying to imitate the rat.
Thanks for the info, exadel. That episode of "Ma La Tien Hou Gong' seems like an interesting show.
I don't really believe in fortune telling, but it is entertaining to find out what is being forecast for the coming year. Actually I remember from last year's New Year 'Lucky Strike' show that they predicted that Xiezhi wouldn't get married, which turned out to be true. Lucky guess, maybe.
I agree that 5566 will probably do well in Mainland China, but I'm not sure about Hong Kong. I hope so, since the main Chinese tv channel we get here in Toronto is TVB based so it would be nice to see 5566 go on some TVB shows.
Have just collected my pre-order CD yesterday. The picture of Xiezhi in the white jacket comes with the lyrics, so everyone should get those pictures regardless of which version they buy. I also get the DVD and calendar, but instead of a desk calendar, I get a pack of postcards with a different picture for each month.
Realised that there is no MV in this album. Wonder if they will come up with yet another version later on (改版) and include the MV in the new version. Personally, I hope they do because I want the MVs.
Btw, this show 勇往直前 will be telecast in China this Sunday. From the fans description, the games segment are rather fun & I hope they don't edit out too much of the show. You can see some pictures of the show here:
Be sure to watch out for this when it is posted on youtube or todou or bt.
Well, 56 will be in China again from this saturday 12 Jan to 21 Jan 08 for their next round of promo.
Actually this piece of news was posted on the official Jstar website a few days back, so not sure if you have already seen it.
It says that 56 has been appointed as the spokesperson for a programme to be shown on "Animal World" channel (sorry, never heard of this channel or programme so don't know the exact name).
From 11 Jan 08, 56 will be the spokesperson for this new programme "Animals Winter Sports Meet". Animals with good sports prowess will be selected to pit their skills against the Winter Olympics gold medalists. Besides dubbing for the programme, 56 will also film the publicity clips for this show. The publicity clips will be telecast from 1 Feb 08 and the new show will be broadcasted on Lunar New Year.
Btw, after checking the other forums, I still do not know which country is this channel available in, though most think that it is Hong Kong.
Hey that's good news about the spokesperson deal - thanks exadel. The more exposure the better. Hope it's a program that is widely broadcasted.
I'm so happy that picture of Xiezhi is included in the album. It is a really cool picture of him. Just curious, what is in the DVD?
Ya, I am glad about the spokesperson deal too. More exposure & more money. The programme sounds fun too, having animals competing against humans. I guess they accepted this deal because it suits their athletic image.
Duration of DVD is about 20+ minutes and is the "behind-the-scenes" of 56 working on the Bravo album. I won't go into details so as not to spoil the fun for you when you get to watch the DVD. Oh, btw the DVD is supposed to be included in the regular version only. Somehow in Singapore, our pre-order version is the same as the regular version - the huge one shown on wangyu though our album cover picture is slightly different from the Taiwan version.
WOW, I haven't been to this thread in awhile and it is moving rather quickly.. Thanks to Exadel for all of the lovely pix and news.. It is great to hear that the new album is doing so well... I got all 3 versions so far... I am giving one to my friend to introduce her to 5566...THanks for sharing the details of the shows and DVD Exadel.
The psychic readings sound kind of funny, but I don't really believe in them either... Sometimes I might to some extent if the psychic is one that has a good reputation, but I don't think it is good to believe in everything they say 100%. I agree with Xie Zhi too. I think if you work hard than you can change some of your predestined fate.
By the way, a little off topic, but I had 1-2 dreams about Sam a couple of nights ago.... It was really strange and funny too.. Also,I think Ding Xiao Qin looks sort of like the Mainland actress Zhang Xi(Dicky Cheung's girlfriend) at some angles...What do you guys think??
I just finished watching Full Count online. It was ok... I feel sad that that series has such low ratings though.
Respect other people's opinions and views. If we learn how to do that than all of these fights and arguments will not occur.

By using this card for about a week or so i can only say good things about it, mine's memory also overclocks quite well
Could be. Also got a GB WF one, uses the 218A chips and not the 219A like the MSI one.... so... I sign my NDAs with BLOOD :O
Jesus this is not good for AMD lol! Their 7870 and 7950 are getting smacked around by the 660ti. :shadedshu
There is peculiarity. Check this out:- 1. ASUS 660 Ti and Zotac 660 Ti achieve 1740 MHz and both get 66.6 fps. 2. Palit 660 Ti gets 1795 MHz and 69 fps. 3. MSI 660 Ti gets 1800 MHz and 69.1 fps (despite the fact that core clock is lower than Palit card). Fps increases as memory clock increases.
Take off the NVIDIA goggles and see that the 660Ti perform equaly as good as 7950 minus the legendary OC abilities and 1600P performance
Who wears goggles? 660ti consumes very little power (135w average in games) and beats 7950 and 7870 in about 85-90% of benchmarks. And the overall performance summary is showing the 660ti a bit faster. EDIT: well in terms of the non reference cards atleast.
Most people would not give this comment a second look given your name. In any case, it performs on average between the HD7870 and HD 7950. It also is priced between those two. Settle down, all is as it should be. 2 GB memory has proven to be more than enough. The GTX 690 has proven that. True "Memory bottleneck" comes with bandwith and overclocking increases that bandwith so performance should increase as such.
yeah, then your forgetting about the GTX660ti overclocking. Im kidding. The 660ti reference is the same speed as a 7950 for $299. IWth the non reference cards that a clocked a bit, it beats the 7950. Right speed of memory can make a difference, only if that memory is starved any little bit if its memory bus size etc. However if your playing a game that is pulling all the vram you have an the FPS is lower then it should, its pull out of your system memory and that'll really bog down your game FPS. I experienced this with my GTX470 on skyrim when I had one.
Do you really honestly think they overclock even remotely the same? really? Than let me tell you something after 5 HD7950s and 3 GTX660Tis, they don't, not even close. As one can easily improve about 12% performance, the other about 35% (no big voltage bumps) All of the HD7950's i've ran into can 1025Mhz at stock voltage, that is adding about 22-24% performance to HD7950's summery.
When did I say they overclock the same lol! If your going to overclock one. you got to overclock the other then same percentage if thats possible for it to be a fair comparison. Its a given fact for this generation that AMD cards are able to scale a fair bit better then Nvidias.
It is obvious, apart from the overclocking advantage the 7000 series offer, that the 7950 and the 660Ti are not in the same league even if the 660Ti wins in some situations. The direct competition is the 7870 where the 660ti is the better card no doubt but price is the key here to make it a successful card.
Im impressed, and i haven't been to impressed by Nvidia for a few yrs now, but this card is WIN, looks like ill be going back to Nvidia next yr and getting two of these. Bit to expensive at the moment at between $350 and $410, compared to the 7870 which is between $300 and $360 which was going to be my next upgrade till this card came out.
Yea i know, ive looked at NZ many times for parts since our dollar is kickin butt at the moment and your prices are still crazy Gotta feel sorry for you guys.

"From Artist to Audience" at Radcliffe
Harvard Magazine reports on the Radcliffe Day panel "From Artist to Audience." Four different artists—a painter, poet, designer/photographer, and composer—discussed the creative process and the relationship between creators and their audiences. Diane Paulus, artistic director of the American Repertory Theater (ART) and professor of the practice of theatre at Harvard, moderated the discussion.

Supervisors hold special pool meeting
Thursday, Nov. 14, 2013 — The Lassen County Board of Supervisors and the Susanville City Council will be holding a special joint meeting at 9 a.m. Monday. Nov. 18 at the Veteran's Memorial Hall to consider a joint powers agreement for a community swimming pool.
The matter was scheduled to a separate day partly due to the absence of district 5 supervisor Tom Hammond at the Nov. 12 meeting, as he was in Washington D.C.
In addition, supervisors Larry Wosick and Bob Pyle expressed concern about either agency being able to easily pull out of the agreement. Any changes made would have to go back to the Susanville City Council for approval and councilmember Brian Wilson who was in attendance at the Nov. 12 meeting recommended the boards hold a joint meeting to stop going back and forth.

Nameberry Picks: 20 Best Philosophical Baby Names
When someone on our message boards suggested that we do a blog on philosophers' names a while back, my first reaction was hmm, that sounds a bit heavy! And maybe just a bit too esoteric?
But it's names we're after, and, digging around, I found that there are quite a few usable first name choices in that field, from across time and a wide variety of cultures. And let's not forget– Plato, Socrates and Aristotle (as in Onassis) are regularly used as everyday names in modern Greece.
Here are twenty worth considering, together with their philosophical isms—not that you have to plow through all their treatises to use one of their names:
Anselm, St. –Italian monk who founded Scholasticism,
Aristotle – ancient Greek philosopher, scientist and logician (not to mention the name of a character in the video game Rygar and in several comics and movies); has the user-friendly nickname Ari, as used for Mr. Onassis
Augustine—St. Augustine of Hippo was one of the most influential Christian thinkers
Benedetto Croce—Italian philosopher who made major contributions to the aesthetics of idealism.
Blaise Pascal—French philosopher, mathematician, scientist and theologian
Jiddu Krishnamurti –Indian spiritual philosopher

"Among the world's piano trios, there is none better." (Time Magazine) In its debut recording for Warner Classics, the legendary Beaux Arts Trio recreates its very first recording, made 50 years ago in 1954. For half a century, the Trio has been delighting audiences around the world. The Beaux Arts Trio of New York made its official debut in July 1955 replacing a rival trio in concert at the Berkshire Music Festival in Tanglewood. The following season the Trio gave 80 concerts and were soon touring internationally. They have never looked back. "The Beaux Arts Trio has retained its almost utopian level of music making; high drama and poignant understatement coexisted in perfect balance. The reining-in and release of tension was masterful and, throughout, the sense of discovery was palpable." (The Washington Post) When the Beaux Arts Trio started to perform together, it was rare to hear the piano trio repertoire well prepared. Most groups were made up of soloists who came together occasionally to play a limited repertoire. What made the Beaux Arts Trio special was that they performed the widest possible repertoire with the skill of soloists and the tight ensemble usually heard only from quartets. The original line-up of the Beaux Arts Trio consisted of violinist Daniel Guilet, cellist Bernard Greenhouse and pianist Menahem Pressler. When Daniel Guilet retired in 1969 at the age of 70, the other Trio members chose Isidore Cohen as his replacement. Now Cohen and Greenhouse have both retired and violinists Ani Kavafian and Dong-Suk Kang have come and gone, as has the cellist Peter Wiley. Menahem Pressler has remained, maintaining the Beaux Arts Trio's quality and acting as elder statesman to British violinist Daniel Hope and Brazilian cellist Antonio Meneses. Over the years the Beaux Arts Trio has maintained its freshness while preserving its distinctive musical heritage. "Its performances are by now so unified and refined that it would seem impossible for the three artists to extract further nuances from the music they play. They work within a very delicate area and the minute degree of tonal variation that they achieve is little short of miraculous. Miraculous, too, is the level of rhythmic vitality and overall spontaneity that they maintain… Beaux Arts is in a class by itself." (The New York Times)
"After the Beaux Arts Trio's debut at Tanglewood in 1955, Charles Munch, the legendary director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, wrote, 'The Beaux Arts Trio is a worthy successor to the last great trio of Thibaud, Casals, and Cortot.' And Maestro Arturo Toscanini said, 'Impeccable taste and musicianship. Their performance is an inspiring experience.'… If there is a finer piano trio before the public today, I have not heard it… the key to it all is that they are not three performers on stage, but a true artistic unit, that in their hands a trio becomes a living thing in which three minds and bodies have been synthesized into a single musical entity." (Chicago Sun-Times)

A A+F Transportation: With a mobile app that tells you all the times the bus will be there by, the transportation shuttles are easy to use
B A+F Transportation: We have MIT shuttles which run during the day through campus and across the river to the Boston-based living groups, and nighttime shuttles which run until 2am across the river and through Cambridge. The subway stop is on the other side of campus from most dorms, but it's still at most a 20 minute walk away, and the bus system is really easy and convenient to use as well.
A+ A+F Transportation: Amazing university transportation system that merges seamlessly with an excellent city system. Its one of the things I love the most about Boston.
A A+F Transportation: The main transportation is Bicycling. There are several bike racks around campus that allow for secure parking. It's a convenient way to get around.
A- A+F Transportation: Easy to Drive Around, Decent Public Transit Access – MIT is right by Mass ave. and it has a few parking lots and garages. It also has a zipcar location so students could rent them. There's also access to bus and T which is nice, though I should note that the T station is on the east side of campus and is away from most of the dorms.MIT runs shuttles around campus, and they have daytime shuttles and "saferides" at night to Boston area.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
Written by Sun Kim
Learning the public transportation system is one of the keys to fully enjoying Boston. There are two main options: the subway (called the T) and buses. There are two T stops in and around campus. One is in Kendall Square, and the other is up Massachusetts Avenue in Central Square. Although there are various bus stops around campus, the main ones are at 77 and 84 Mass. Avenue.
Buses tend to run more frequently, but learning which bus goes where can be a pain. Many students will never ride anything other than the 1 and the CT1 buses that go up and down Mass. Avenue. Moreover, buses can often be delayed by traffic at certain times of day. On the other hand, the T is never delayed by traffic. However, there are fewer routes, but the buses tend to be cleaner. If you use public transportation frequently, you should consider buying a bus and/or T pass through MIT. The discount for students is 50 percent. In any case, public transportation will take you anywhere you want to go around Boston, and it's cheap. Although some of the facilities could be nicer, few are disappointed with the system.
These are MIT Facilities-run shuttles that allow students to get to the main campus faster and safer. There are several routes, including those going into Boston for the Fraternities, Sororities, and other Independent Living Groups.

Just like a Neighborhood Watch, where everyone who lives there keeps an eye out for trouble, the same philosophy needs to be adopted for our Greenway.
The other morning I was on one of my early morning runs and discovered some offensive words and symbols on the Greenway. I was disgusted, to say the least. Not so much for me, but my thoughts went to the mothers who would soon be on the Greenway with their young children who would have to explain it. It did not matter that the "art" was done in chalk; there was no rain forecast for several days, so the images had to be removed manually.
Then there are the spray can-happy painters who think people actually enjoy the messages they scrawl on the underpasses and other areas. Several weeks ago someone took to the new restroom with gold spray paint, marking the walls and fixtures. Thanks to the quick work of our Parks and Recreation staff they had the restroom back in presentable fashion by later that morning.
For some reason, a few individuals have it in their head that wet cement is an invitation to carve names, symbols or other messages for all to see. "Oh look, there's some yellow caution tape blocking off a freshly poured section of the Greenway. That must mean it's OK for us to scar FOREVER the work concrete finishers worked so hard to make perfect for our community." Really?
A few days ago the last of the concrete portions of the latest phase of the Greenway were poured. Up to that day the several hundred feet of new Greenway and access paths had escaped the hands of the cement scrawlers. Out of curiosity, I hung around out of sight for a few minutes to see if there were some would-be artisans. I caught one young man who claimed he was, "Just seeing if it was still wet." Yeah, right. Unfortunately, I couldn't hang out there to police the area for much longer and, sure enough, a selfish individual scarred a perfect finish. This person has forced his or her handiwork on the rest of us for the life of the Greenway.
Finally, there are the bench destroyers. Wow. Here's a helpful asset for weary walkers and multiple times the benches have been tossed into Mouse Creek. The action essentially destroys the bench, cracking the joint between the seat and back. The other day Parks and Rec had to remove two benches that someone completely destroyed after they had been previously damaged.
I realize that the ones who need to hear this message are likely not reading this column, but hopefully by bringing it up it will reiterate the fact that 1) we need everyone to adopt a "neighborhood watch" attitude toward our Greenway, keeping an eye out for troublemakers and confronting them or calling authorities; and 2) the Parks and Recreation staff are eager to rectify anything that happens when it is reported to them. I'd like to publicly thank them for their diligence.
It is unfortunate that a tiny handful of persons do not respect this wonderful asset to our community, but that should not deter us from enjoying the positive progress and benefits our Greenway provides.

You will have 2 hours once you begin. A question will be shown on the screen and several answers (usually A-I). You choose an answer by clicking on the button to the left of the letter. You may choose not to answer a question and come back to it later.
The program will always default to going to the next question numerically, but by clicking on the button showing the next question you may choose to jump anywhere in the test. The button will show you what questions you have answered, but you may also choose to go back to a question you have previously answered and change it. One of the choices from the "Next Question" button will be "Done". Choosing this will show you if you have any unanswered questions remaining and prompt you to end the test or go back and work some more. You may not go back and retake a test, but you can take any other test.
DO NOT USE THE BACK BUTTON DURING THE EXAM. If you would like to go back then use the questions navigator to go back toa question. Using the back button will result in the loss of answers and will not result in any extra time for the exam.
If at any time you need to restart the exam, there is a link on the main page to do so.
ONCE YOU HAVE STARTED AN EXAM YOU NEED TO FINISH IT. If you decide you no longer want to take that exam then you need to end the test and get your score and then choose a new test. You will not be able to go back and take the exam over again.
You are allowed paper, a writing utensil, and a calculator. Not all calculators are allowed. Approved calculators include the TI-81, 82, 83 and 85 but not the TI-92. The general guideline is that the calculator should not be able to do calculus symbolically.

In patients with type 2 diabetes being treated with metformin, the addition of the glucagon-like peptide-1 analog liraglutide is as effective as glimepiride in improving glycemic control but with less weight gain, researchers report.
Dr. Michael Nauck, lead investigator, stated that, "When available for clinical use…liraglutide will be the first intentionally modified analogue of the gut hormone GLP-1, that can be used to lower blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes without causing hypoglycemia."
Dr. Nauck of Diabeteszentrum Bad Lauterberg, Harz, Germany, and colleagues investigated the efficacy of liraglutide, glimepiride or placebo added to background metformin therapy. The team randomized 1091 subjects to daily subcutaneous injections of liraglutide, 0.6, 1.2 or 1.8 mg, oral glimepiride 4 mg daily, or placebo.
At the end of the 26-week trial, A1C values were significantly reduced in the liraglutide groups compared to placebo. For the 1.8 mg and the 1.2 mg groups, the reduction was 1.0%, and for the 0.6 mg group it was 0.7%. A1C increased by 0.1% in the placebo group.
Body weight decreased by 1.8 to 2.8 kg in the liraglutide group, but increased by 1.0 kg in the glimepiride group. The incidence of minor hypoglycemia was similar in both liraglutide and placebo groups (about 3%), but was a significantly greater at 17% in the glimepiride group.
Although the glycemic control afforded by liraglutide and glimepiride were comparable, the researchers conclude that "addition of once-daily liraglutide to metformin monotherapy is a viable treatment option."
"At the same time," added Dr. Nauck, "the patient can expect some reduction in appetite and weight loss, in contrast to other diabetes medications that rather promote weight gain and hypoglycemia."
