This year, to my great surprise, Zend has invited me to reprise the presentation I gave at ZendCon as a webinar. I am thrilled to have this opportunity although the thought of addressing an international audience is, frankly speaking, a bit daunting. But, sometimes a grrl just has to do, what a grrl has to do!
WEBINAR: The Truth About Lambdas and Closures in PHP
March 29, 2012: 9am PDT
One of PHP 5.3′s terrific features is the ability to use lambdas, a feature which will surely relegate PHP 5.0′s lambda-style in the guise of create_function() to the dust-bin of cyberspace. This presentation will focus on what exactly lambdas are as well as the difference between a lambda and a closure, or whether there is any given their implementation in PHP. In addition, we'll have a look at improvements pertaining to closures in PHP 5.4. Far greater emphasis is on live code demonstrations as well as in-depth discussion about the code.
Presenters: Sharon Lee Levy & Kevin Schroeder
You may find that my presentation deviates from the dry fare that typically characterizes technical talks. My methods may be unconventional, but hopefully will aid in clarifying the subject of anonymous functions in PHP and at the same time, pique the interests of everyone, including women and girls so they may explore PHP and computer programming.

Appendix C Calculation of Air Exchange Rates Air exchange rates are defined in terms of a general one-compartment model of air exchange with immediate and perfect mixing of air inside residences. For any contaminant in the assumed well-mixed pool of air in the living spaces, this leads to an expectation of simple exponential decline of air con- centrations with time: C(t) = C(O)e~kt, where C(O) is the initial concentration of the contaminant inside the house, C(t) is the concentration of the contaminant at any specific time after t = 0, and k is a rate constant in units of reciprocal time (i.e., if time is expressed in hours, k is in reciprocal hours, or, by convention, "air changes per hourly. The relationship between the rate constant k and the half-life (the time re- quired to reduce the air concentration by haTi) is easily derived by setting C(t) to one-half of C(O): C ~ t ~ , 2 ~ = . 5 C ~ O ~ = C ~ O ~ e - ~ / 2 After the cancellation of the C(O)'s, and taking the natural logarithm of both sides of the equation: In(.5) = - kit, to= In(2~/k or k = In(2~/t~,2 90

Curriculum Tools | News
An Indiana school district is taking its middle school math program digital to make sure its students have the necessary technology skills when they graduate.
DeKalb County Central United School District has selected Pearson's digits because it is aligned with Common Core State Standards and will help cut costs, according to Lynn Simmers, district assistant superintendent. The district will be switching to the standards in the 2012-2013 school year.
"With the transition to Common Core and the digital landscape, we couldn't afford to tie ourselves to a traditional textbook for five or six years," said Simmers in a prepared statement.
digits provides math curriculum and technology for individualized instruction. It uses an architecture called interACTIVE Learning Cycle, which allows for instruction based on students' proficiency levels.
Features of digits include:
"They're [the students] more willing to try different concepts they haven't previously understood, and they're going beyond just finding the right answer. They're learning to rationalize how they came to it," said Justin Rentschler, a seventh-grade math teacher at DeKalb Middle School, in Waterloo, IN.

CentOS] How to tell if I've been hacked?

Perfect security is impossible, but maybe we can achieve 'good enough'.

Problems with rpm: 1) Many files on a system did not come from an rpm or had good reasons to change, so dealing with false positives is a problem 2) Some packages are sloppy and no longer verify immediately after installation 3) rpm cannot address memory-only attacks or bios attacks. Still, if rpm tells you some binary has changed since installation, you know you're in trouble. Or you're using prelink. > rootkit detectors is another thing you can try. Problem with rootkit detectors I have used: many false positives. At least, I hope they were false! Googling around, I found that once you had a positive result, it was sort of complicated process to figure out whether you'd really been hacked or were just having timing problems or had an unusual configuration. > Other than that, it is checking your logs and looking for odd files > lying around... And prayer. On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 5:22 PM, Ryan Pugatch<rpug at tripadvisor.com> wrote: > Also, processes running that you don't recognize. Unfortunately, if you're like me there are really a lot of processes running on a virgin linux box (never touched the internet) that I don't recognize. I once tried just making a big file of them and having a cron job send me email when the list changed significantly. This could have caught an unlucky or inept cracker who launched some process named "meEvilCrackhead", but wouldn't have done much to catch someone using an innocuous name, like say 'grep'. >Users you don't > recognize. Again, it is possible to catch someone who doesn't bother to get rid of the smoking gun. Someone who has root on your system can create a new user, or they could use a pre-existing user. You can keep an eye out for strange users, but the real problem is spotting familiar users doing stuff they ought not. Even that can be covered if the cracker replaces your tools or hacks the kernel. > Logged in sessions that you don't recognize. I'm not sure what Ryan means here, unless he is assuming only one person (you) has authorized access to your machine, and you see sessions logged in as you that you know nothing about. Yeah, that would tip you off. If lots of users can log in, there's not much point. > Free space > shrinking abnormally. Again not really sure what this would mean. Too high a load, too many programs running? Again, someone with root access could hack the tools you use to monitor this, or even the kernel, and make it really hard to see. Assuming you really know how much free space you ought to have at a given moment, which, for me, I am ashamed to admit, would be quite rare. > An increase in bandwidth usage that is unexpected. Now we're talking! Well, I am still pretty damn ignorant of what a system's bandwidth demand ought to be, but at least you could see the stuff actually happening and make a sort of reasonable investigation of 'what do I have running that would possibly want to talk to IP xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa?' And for once, no matter how good the intruder is, they won't be able to get your own system to lie to you for them (assuming you're using a different system to do the network analysis). But while you analize the traffic, the bad guys has more time to damage your data.

After that they will probably try to cover their tracks. On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 6:57 PM, Bill Campbell<centos at celestial.com> wrote: > To really know whether a system has been hacked, it's necessary > to use something like Tripwire or Aide, And very carefully. Only that won't help you with memory-only attacks, or bios stuff, etc. These tools concentrate on verifying that your disk files have not been altered. I don't think they would help with an attack that uses free space (guessing here). Also, they are a pain, unless your system stays absolutely static, which in effect means, if you never use it. Have them ignore your data space, and the hacker can exploit that. And even then, linux is constantly updating various files in the background, and of course you need to update software to keep up with the security patches. You need to track every change of every file. I doubt many people have the patience.

Naturally we are running aide and tripwire from a CD or other read-only medium, why not toss in a copy of these tools as well? Of course, if the kernel has been hacked, even that won't save us, but we have to take what we can get.

When you rebooted, you may have erased from memory the only remaining trace of the intrusion and you are still vulnerable. But at least you *can* trust what the tools are telling you - I hope.

But that's just one of many important files. > Use commands like last, w and uptime. These tools are kind of weak. If you have a single-user system or the intruder is doing something really obvious (what? rm -rf /? wall 'I am an intruder!'?) they would help. With multiple users they won't tell you enough, and if the intruder is good they will lie to you. Thanks to all for stimulating thoughts. I've been thinking about this for a while. I need to think some more. xoxo, Dave

So, things are changing. Of course, I would expect enforcement to be lax, at least for a while. If you are a citizen of another country, then you have to be licensed there to operate here.Casey Bahrhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852996097055245764.post-61321775030522316342013-07-16T13:56:04.703-06:002013-07-16T13:56:04.703-06:00does this hold true today?

I used some orange color leds, which I hot-glued to the top of the meter cases. They are wired in parallel and the voltage stepped down with a resistor on each (1.2K, I think). The wire then goes to the back of the case where I drilled a hole to mount an RCA jack. Then I just used a regular audio cable from the auxiliary power jack on the ALS-600 to the tuner.

73,

Now in its seventh year, the Masters Series invites celebrated documentary filmmakers and acclaimed professionals–including editors, cinematographers and sound designers–to share their in-the-field experiences and expertise during a Masters Series Class with members of Toronto's professional documentary filmmaking community. The Masters Series Lab is a forum to constructively workshop and improve projects, guided by guest Masters in a structured, supportive space.

In his Master Class "Hold the Pepperoni," the multiple award-winning filmmaker Ron Mann (Comic Book Confidential, Know Your Mushrooms) discussed making a career out of capturing the history of alternative and dissent culture.

The most important shot in almost every film–documentary or drama–is the first.

Held on April 20, 2010.

Held on June 3, 2008.
Roland Schlimme's work in the edit room spans 15 years and can be recognized in the films of Peter Mettler (Gambling, Gods, and LSD; Petropolis; The End of Time), Jennifer Baichwal (Manufactured Landscapes, Watermark) and Liz Marshall (The Ghosts In Our Machine). During his Master Class, Schlimme spoke to how he approaches the unique challenges of editing unscripted films and the importance of the assembly stage as an essential tool to explore structure.
Held on June 19, 2014.
During Hot Docs, Kirsten Johnson (cinematographer, The Invisible War; director, Deadline) offered insights into approaching the creative process.
Held on May 2, 2013.

Held on September 11, 2011.
The multiple Emmy Award-winning director of Life With Murder, Monster in the Family, and Rage Against the Darkness lectured on how he uses the interview to get deep into his characters' lives.
Held on July 12, 2010.
In advance of his Master Class, Dr. Allan King said: "As examples, I will use selections from my own work Rickshaw, Skidrow, A Matter of Pride, Come on Children, Who's in Charge? and Field Day. Ask any questions you want. This Seminar is for you to explore what you want, not for me to preach. The aim of all my work is to be useful in helping people find authority for their own lives; that is the only way to become free."
Held on May 24, 2008
"Exactly what Toronto filmmakers need to keep inspired,
informed, connected."
- Richard Meech, Filmmaker

It will be the rubber match between two big players in Class 5A girls soccer and the stakes will be high.
A trip to the state semifinal round will be on the line Thursday when the Los Alamos Hilltoppers square off against the Albuquerque Academy Chargers. That game is set for 6 p.m. at the Albuquerque Public Schools Soccer Complex on the Duke City's west side.
Los Alamos and Academy are no strangers. They usually face off during the regular season and very often find themselves squaring off during the postseason.
In 2014, the two teams met twice, one of those games coming by happenstance as the two teams met in the final round of Academy's home tournament.
Los Alamos prevailed 3-2 in that game, played Sept. 13. Three days later, however, the Chargers got that game back, winning 2-1. Both those games were played on Academy's campus.
"Academy is a tough challenge for us," said Los Alamos head coach AJ Herrera, who's leading the team into the postseason in his first season. "It was a matter of making that final play in each one of those two games."
The Chargers (10-9-2) were awarded just a six seed for this year's tournament. To advance to the quarterfinals, they had to knock off Los Alamos' District 2 foe, Del Norte.
The Los Alamos Hilltopper girls soccer team will face the Albuquerque Academy Chargers in the quarterfinal round of the Class 5A tournament Thursday.
The field is set for the quarterfinals. The four quarterfinal games will all be played on Thursday at the Albuquerque Soccer Complex.
Los Alamos, which earned the No. 3 seed for the playoffs, will meet the Chargers at 6 p.m.
Other quarterfinal round games include St. Pius X against Goddard, Valencia taking on Farmington and Piedra Vista facing Aztec.
The Piedra Vista-Aztec game is also set for 6 p.m. The other two games are set for 5:30 p.m.
The tournament continues through Saturday at the APS complex.
In the opening round, all the top seeds won in the girls 5A playoffs. Of the four games played this weekend, three were decided by one goal.
Academy, however, knocked off Del Norte, Los Alamos' District 2 foe, decisively, winning that contest 3-0.
Del Norte (10-9), which was the No. 11 seed this year, was the only District 2 team besides the Hilltoppers selected for the postseason.
The 5A boys tournament will also continue Thursday in Albuquerque.
Los Alamos was dropped by Santa Teresa in a minor upset, 1-0 at Sullivan Field Saturday. Ezekiel Sanchez scored the only goal in the 47th minute to bump the Hilltoppers out in the first round.
The Los Alamos Hilltopper volleyball team secured the No. 2 seed in the District 2-5A tournament by winning its final two matches of the season.
Los Alamos downed Bernalillo and Del Norte last week to finish district play with a mark of 6-2, which was good enough to pick up that second seed.
As a consequence of their seed, the Hilltoppers (11-9 overall) will host the 2-5A semifinal match at 6 p.m. Thursday. The Hilltoppers will play the winner of tonight's quarterfinal match between the Bernalillo Spartans and the Del Norte Knights.
The tournament opened Monday night with the Knights holding on for a 3-2 victory over the Capital Jaguars. The Knights won the first two sets, but Capital (2-17 overall, 0-9 in 2-5A) rallied to win the next two sets before the Knights bounced back to close the contest out.
That match ended Capital's season.
Both teams tonight will be motivated throughout the rest of their tournament run, as both are on the bubble for inclusion into the Class 5A playoffs, which start next week in Rio Rancho.
Del Norte, which is two games under .500 for the year, managed just three wins on the 2-5A season, all of them coming against Capital.
Turkey Trot returns Nov. 23
The annual CROP Walk/Turkey Trot is scheduled for Nov. 23. The event will start at Los Alamos Middle School.
The Turkey Trot is for any interested participants. Participants my choose to walk or run a 1.7-mile or a 2.5-mile course.
All participants are also eligible to win turkeys and pumpkin pies in a random drawing.
Registrations will take place at 1 p.m. at LAMS and the Turkey Trot will start at 2 p.m.

Pro shop has new hours
Los Alamos Golf Course announced its pro shop hours are changing for the end of Daylight Savings Time.
The pro shop will now be open from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. every day until further notice. The first scheduled tee times will be at 9 a.m., weather and frost conditions permitting.
Driving range hours will be from 8 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
LAGC officials said the course will close for the season around the start of December, but it could be earlier depending on weather conditions and temperatures.
Youth basketball starts Dec. 1
COCHITI PUEBLO — If there was any doubt as to which team was in charge of the District 2-5A championship race, one had to look no further than the front of the line to have that question answered definitively.
At the head of the race was a virtual wall composed entirely of green.
Until the Los Alamos Hilltoppers started to fan out heading into the final mile of Friday's district title race, there were nine runners within a few yards of each other plowing down the dusty trail at Cochiti Middle School and nary another team color in sight.
Los Alamos dominated the 2-5A race, taking position 1-9 at the finish line — teams are allowed to enter as many as nine runners into the district title race. At the end, only one runner finished within even 15 seconds of the Hilltoppers' No. 9 runner.
The result, a perfect score of 15 for Los Alamos, was hardly surprising, but it may have been a statement to the rest of the teams in Class 5A.
"I think we put in a lot of work," said Los Alamos veteran Forrest White. "There's a lot to go, but I didn't think this year we'd be nearly this good."
BERNALILLO — One team was heading into Friday night's football game on a high note, the other on a low note.
But if you didn't know which was which, you might not guess it.
Needing just one win against a vulnerable opponent to give itself a shot for a district title, the Los Alamos Hilltoppers were outmuscled upfront for most of Friday night's contest.
Bernalillo, after a rocky first quarter, solidified its defensive line and used some well-timed blitz packages to throw the Hilltopper offense off-balance.
Along with that, a huge night from two of its offensive stars — tailback Daniel Molinar and wide receiver Marcus Jaramillo — pushed the Bernalillo Spartans over the top. The Spartans prevailed 38-14 in Friday's District 2-5A contest.
That loss by the Hilltoppers (1-8) effectively gave the Del Norte Knights the 2-5A championship — Los Alamos was the last team that had a chance to knock Del Norte off its perch — and, although they face Del Norte at home Friday, effectively ended the Hilltoppers' season.
In their first season in 2-5A, the Knights have gone 3-0 and hold the head-to-head tiebreaker over Capital regardless of what happens this coming Friday at Sullivan Field.
COCHITI PUEBLO — Although it's the only way to qualify for the state cross country meet, for the Los Alamos Hilltopper girls cross country team, for quite some time now, it hasn't been much more than a stone to jump over.
Los Alamos, as expected, dominated the District 2-5A championship meet Friday. Los Alamos swept the top six places at the meet and got all eight of its competing runners the title of All-District.
As expected, the race was led virtually wire-to-wire by the Hilltoppers' outstanding junior, Maddy Foley. Other than being pushed through about the first mile by her own teammates, Foley was barely bothered at the head of the race and won the individual district title by 44 seconds over teammate Sophia Galvez.
Despite cruising to the victory on the warm, dusty and hilly course behind Cochiti Middle School, Foley said she felt uncomfortable leading the way.
"I usually pace myself off Natasha Bernal (of La Cueva), who is always pacing everybody," said Foley, talking about the top Class 6A runner in New Mexico. "It's kind of nerve-wracking being up there."
Nevertheless, Foley earned her second straight win and third of the season. She also won last week at the Hilltoppers' home meet.
Losing is tough. Losing twice in one day is tougher.
Unfortunately, that's what happened to the Los Alamos Hilltopper boys soccer team Saturday at Sullivan Field. Not only did Los Alamos get nipped in the opening round of the Class 5A playoffs by the Santa Teresa Desert Warriors, the Hilltoppers also lost a coach.
Following their finishing on the short end of a tough 1-0 decision in the first round, which ended the eighth-seeded Hilltoppers' season, Los Alamos veteran head coach Evan Gartz said he was wrapping up his career with the program.
"It's been a good run," Gartz said. "I've loved it. I've loved every season, but it's time."
Gartz led the team to a state championship in 2010, the first for Los Alamos since the mid-1980s.
This season, Los Alamos had to deal with a pile of injuries as well as a challenging schedule. Los Alamos finished its regular season on a high note with three straight wins to secure a home game for the tournament's first round.
But ninth-seeded Santa Teresa, a school from the extreme southern part of the state, proved to be too tough of a final hill to climb for Los Alamos to get to the quarterfinals.
Former Los Alamos basketball player Alex Kirk did not make an appearance in the Cleveland Cavaliers' 2014-15 season opener Thursday night.
Kirk, who signed with the Cavaliers last summer, was on the bench for the duration of Cleveland's home game against the New York Knicks.
He is one of three centers on the Cavaliers' roster this season, but neither he nor No. 2 center Brendan Haywood entered into the contest.
Cleveland lost its opener to New York, 95-90.
The game was the homecoming for LeBron James, who started his career in Cleveland before leaving to play for Miami for four seasons. James had an uncharacteristically pedestrian game Thursday, finishing with 17 points on 5 of 15 shooting from the floor and turning the ball over 8 times.
The Cavaliers will face the Chicago Bulls tonight in Chicago. Chicago sports two of Kirk's former teammates at the University of New Mexico, rookie Cameron Bairstow and second-year player Tony Snell.
Playing in the Chile Bowl, the Northern New Mexico youth football equivalent of the Super Bowl, is a dream for many boys.
And all of the girls on the Los Alamos X-Treme.
Los Alamos' Division 2 team, which is comprised of 9- and 10-year-olds, will play Saturday against a tough opponent Saturday morning at St. Michael's High School in Santa Fe.
That team will face the Santa Fe Trojans for the right to go to Sunday's Chile Bowl. The two teams met last month during the regular season, and that game didn't turn out as well as the X-Treme was hoping — it was shut out, 16-0.
X-Treme coach Mark Gonzales said his team has made numerous adjustments since that game, including installing a diamond-formation offense, which he said has given his team more big-play capability.
On this year's X-Treme roster are three girls — Kaitlyn Gonzales, Tia Hartzol and Dailynn Rodriguez. Coach Gonzales said all three have been instrumental to the team's success in getting to this year's postseason.
Rodriguez, who is also a standout Little League baseball player, is the starting center for Los Alamos. She made an unusual request of her coach this year: she wanted to have a play where she pulled around the offensive line and had lead blocker responsibilities.

Hi all,
This school year is sneaking by me--It's almost December, Holy Cow!! My schedule is busy--my husband and I go to physical therapy together every day. He is pretty strong after his August total knee replacement--and is getting ready for the other one on December 1. As for me, I am proud to say that I am walking independently a good part of every day. I have muscle fatigue and pain in my legs daily. My back is much better--still very numb in the surgical area. I had an injection about a week ago that I couldn't even feel because of numbness. My upper legs and feet are also numb yet and we are unsure if I am going to get past this. We are also unsure if it is the result of the second surgery that left me numb from the waist down or from the Levaquin that did some serious damage to my body or if it is simply part of a growing condition that I have being lovingly referred to as "polyneuropathy." I see a neurologist in early December and am hoping for some information to help define and treat my issues.
I want to share some wedding photos so you can enjoy one of the happiest days of my life. My son and daughter-in-law are doing so well and life is such a great time for them that I have to smile when I think about them!
This is the wedding party.
Here's one of my favorite photos during Mitchell and Laura's first dance together as husband and wife.
I hope this is a good photo of my dance with Mitchell--It was so wonderful, and I made my PT goal of being able to dance with him!!
Here's Matthew, our oldest son and one of Mitchell's groomsmen.
Here's some wedding cake!
And the kids says it all!!
Gentle hugs,
Hi all,
Things are certainly happening all around me and I am having trouble keeping track of me. I am still going to physical therapy 3-4 times a week and am walking for short distances independently and longer distances with the kind of sticks long-distance trekkers use or myu walker if I need to carry items. The reality is that the problem that caused me to have the second surgery seems to be back and I am not sure if I want to tell any doctors about it or not. It isn't as extreme as it was then, but it is growing more uncomfortable and it is any slight recline of my back that sets it off. Other than that, my back is find. The numbness in my legs and feet often turns to pain in the evening and I struggle to find a position or a chair that is comfortable. I am also dealing with reciprocal damage to my left arm and shoulder again. By having my arms do the work of me walking when my feet were covered with burns and without feeling, I am having some difficulties. My ortho gave me an injection in my shoulder a week ago and diagnosed me with carpal tunnel in my left hand again. (Who knew that carpal tunnel comes back?)
The big thing in my life is the wedding this weekend. My goal has been to dance with my son
and I can do the two step with a bit of support for four and a half minutes. I'm figuring that that big old boy can hold his mother up if need be anyway. We aren't in agreement on the song--I think the music genre is what is pushing him off. HE wants a song called "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds and I think that is more of a song for him and his new wife than me--but he will get to win this. ;)
The other extremely big thing in my life is that I put in paperwork to retire at the end of this school year. It wasn't an easy decision, but I know with each passing day, it was the right decision for me. I could be a teacher--and probably will in other capacities--for twenty or more years--but the politics and awful people I am dealing with is too much stress. It is taking the joy out of my job and out of me. I have a couple of whopper stories to tell later. I am currently fighting with them because adding the retirement bonus to my pay cut it. and I am making less money than before. I don't understand why they cannot see that that is illogical and doesn't make sense (How do you spell somebody's BIG mistake?) Oh well, if they want a fight, they will truly get it.
I won't let this garbage overshadow the fun and love and happiness of the coming few days. My family needs a party and this will be the party of all parties for some time to come. We are adding a new daughter to our family and my son is starting a life as a husband and a provider. It is an amazing thing and we are truly blessed. Mitchell selected Matthew to be a groomsman, Mason to walk me down the aisle, Marshall and Miles to be ushers, Megan to read, Marissa to sing, and Micah to light the candles. All of my children have a role in the service. It will be wonderful and I would love to share some of this love on everyone.
Life is happening all around me and I am trying to take part. I see the rehab doctor this afternoon and therapy today and tomorrow--then I have three days off from that to focus on my family.
Peace and love and blessings abound.
Gentle hugs,
Hi All,
I'm sorry that I haven't been around, but I have been through everything and I have a lot more to go through...
I did go to rehab and after I had been there for about eight days, I convinced the doctor to let me work with my pain doc. My pain doc agreed that I couldn't do anything without my pain being controlled so he added a fentanyl patch back to my regime. Then at about ten days, my favorite and most pushy physical therapist said to me, "I think you're ready." I looked at her and said, "Ready for what?" She said, "To stand up." I was shocked since I hadn't been able to bear weight at all and my legs simply weren't working--but I said to her that, "I'm nervous, but I want this and I will give it my best," She wheeled me to the parallel bars and counted to three. At that point, she pulled on the gait belt and pulled me to my feet. Once I was up, she said, "You know what is next?" I answered, "To walk?" and she agreed. I walked back and forth the length of the parallel bars three times and then sat down and cried for 20 minutes. I couldn't believe that I was able to do that. The next day, she said that we would use the walker and we did. The problem was that I couldn't get myself up. We worked and worked on it.
In the meantime, the hospital had run a UA on me when I first came and found that I had a UTI. They started me on an antibiotic called Levaquin. I took it for seven days and on the eighth day, I broke out in a bright red measles looking rash on my face, my privates and my behind. It turned into a flaming red color and total rash over the same area and for the next four days, it covered my entire body. The rehab doctor gave me benadryl for two days and the nurses begged him to do something else so he put me on steroids and gave me hydrocortisone cream. On Saturday, I saw a different doctor who took one look at me and said, "This is dangerous." He got the disease control doctor to examine me and they determined that I needed specialized care, so they put me in an ambulance and sent me for that 75 minute ride back to University Hospital. They took me to the ER and it seemed like 50 people had to come in and check me out. I was burning everywhere.
They took a biopsy off of the back of my arm and the dermatologists admitted me to the floor adjacent to the burn unit. The burn unit staff along with wonderful staff on the floor I was on worked hard to manage my pain from these burns and to treat everything. I was put on a regime of creams and bandaging to try and control the blisters and to actually speed this mess along. My heart rate stayed extremely elevated and they finally put me on meds for that. Taking my blood pressure was torture because of all of the burns and blisters that covered my arms. The same problem came up for drawing blood or placing an IV, I was a mess. It was pretty awful--and all I could think about was physical therapy and my legs needing to be exercised and worked. I got to see the PT for 30 minutes each day and the OT for 30 minutes, but the rest of my time was in bed. It was a long and horrible time, but after 6 days, I was down to bandages on my arms and hands and my legs and feet--so the hospital wanted to send me back to rehab. I tried to convince them that I had met my long term goals from rehab--I had the documents and the therapists agreed with me, but they came back and told me that the rehab folks told them I needed two more days there.
I got them to let me ride with my husband rather than in an ambulance (for the third time, oh my) and we had a lovely ride back to rehab. When we got there, they had a room for me--but the nurse who was assigned to me took a look at my dressings and said, "I'm not changing those." I was shocked--I had worked with her a couple of times and she had never been so nasty. I looked at her and said that I needed them changed because I needed creams/ medications applied. Then she brought me some cold left over dinner tray that had a baked potato, a muffin, cottage cheese, and hot cocoa on it. Oh yes, and some weird cold broth. I told her that I surely wasn't eating that and that she could take it back.
I waited for another 3 1/2 hours before anyone else came into my room--except two of my kids because I texted my family and told them what was going on. (I had sent my husband home because our youngest, autisic son was having problems and needed a parent. I needed him to do that more than to monitor me--or so I thought.) One of my kids brought me a nice chicken dinner and another brought a pizza. :) I needed to go to the restroom and couldn't use the facility in the room because it needed a riser--my son went and pushed them to bring me a commode which was the only thing that was really done for me. Anyway, finally that nurse came into the room with information to "put me in the loop." The packet of papers I brought from the hospital was unacceptable to them because there weren't any "doctor's orders." They called University Hospital and said that I hadn't really been discharged, so she gave them an ultimatum. If they hadn't sent doctor's orders for me within 15 minutes, she was putting me in an ambulance and sending me back to them. She said that the doctor who had been seeing me all along had refused me as a patient. I got pissed off and told her that she was not putting me into an ambulance and that I was going home. I swear her eyes sparkled when I said that and she asked me to wait a few minutes. 20 minutes later, she came back and said that University Hospital had discharged me to go home. She said that my meds would be called into my pharmacy in the morning. When I questioned her about physical therapy, her answer to me was to "call any of them up and they will just take you." I was totally shocked, because I knew that wasn't true. However, my kids helped repack the box of creams and bandages that had been sent with me and I figured that I had enough meds to get me through the night and they helped me to get back into our car with my burning. swollen feet.
It seemed like a miraculous and very long ride home for that 20 minutes. It was terribly hard to get into my house because my feet were on fire and I hadn't had any meds since about 2:00 and it was almost 9 hours later. My sons and husband were so wonderful with me and they got me into the house someway. I hadn't climbed stairs at all and we have two to get into the house. Besides the burning and swelling in my feet, I couldn't lift my feet to get up the stairs. I was exhausted on top of everything. My husband and one of my sons guided my walker and another of my sons helped to move and lift my feet and they got me inside and to my power chair. They went to work on my bandages as soon as i took some pain meds and my other meds. They finished with all of them at about 12:30 AM. I slept well, believe it or not and we called the pharmacy as soon as they opened. Of course no meds had been called in for me.
I called my PCP and he got me in during his lunch. He was leaving after lunch to go on a week long family vacation. It took him an hour and a half to muddle through the paperwork I had and order meds, get me an appointment with the other rehab doc--the one who sent me to University Hospital, get me a visiting nurse to care for my wounds, get me an appointment with my pain doc, and to order and get me started in physical therapy. They did some blood work as well. I was so glad that I went to someone who knew me. I went home and started working on the exercises I knew to do. It was a hard time__I'd sleep a while and then need bandages changed. The blisters were breaking and my feet were leaving puddles all around me. My family worked hard to care for me. When the nurse came, he was impressed with how well they were caring for the mess I was in.
I got to get rid of the bandages off of my hands about 6 days ago. My feet are coming along--the doctors in Iowa City thought that my feet and legs would be through with all of the blistering and peeling by the end of this week. I started back to therapy last week. It is hard for them because the big bulky bandages on my sore feet are hard to work with-the only shoes I can wear are my son's size 12 athletic slides. I am still having some trouble pulling myself to my feet. My upper legs are very weak and aren't doing their job yet--we are working on strengthening and endurance. I cannot pull my feet into the car yet. I have learned how to get up our stairs. I am really trying to get myself back on my feet. Apparently it is the L2 vertebrae that controls the part of my legs that aren't working yet and that is where all of the trouble in my last surgery was at.
I believe I will be walking without my walker at some point. I also believe that I will overcome all of this mess. I don't know when I will have time for SP like I used to. I have made a lot of decisions about my life after these life changing issues I have dealt with. Each of you who have read and supported me here are important to me and I have thought about you--Linda and Pat and Morticia and Ferret Lover (I'm sorry, your name has gotten by me right now) and my OA of the Lower Back group. I just haven't been able to do much about it except think about you. I have had over 900 emails to deal with and all that is important to me is to work towards getting my life back in order. My family has been wonderful, but things around here aren't the way I like them. Lots have been going on with most of my kids plus there is a wedding we are going full steam ahead with. I will be dancing with my son on September 20.
So, I will say that my absence has been beyond my control and that I am sorry for leaving you all for so long. I am not sure when I will be a true spark person again. My weight fell greatly and then when all of that swelling came, it went up like crazy. My legs are still slightly swollen and my poor feet are not good yet. I will get better. I will get my life back. I have applied for a job in a different school--if I get it, I will be giving three years notice of retirement. If I don't get it, I am going to retire this year. Life is too short to be taking all of the garbage that I have been taking from the principal I work with. I will be starting a reading program for the inner city kids who live around our church for next year--and I sure hope that I have gotten the job as literacy coach in that building so I will know kids and names to make that program the easiest and best that our church can offer children in need. (I don't know if I mentioned that our district plans to eliminate reading teachers at the end of this year--don't even ask me how they can justify that but I know that the reason is $$$ as always. That is another reason I am making a change.)
This is long enough--I should be sleeping now, but I am not ready for whatever reason. I have to go to the hospital with my husband for a 7:45 appointment for a joint replacement class he is taking before his knee replacement on August 4. That is one more reason I have to get better! Life is a busy place and things can be complicated.
I can do this--again, I have missed you all!!
Gentle hugs,
PS: Would someone update the teams for me--OA of the Lower Back and Basset Hound Dogs? I really appreciate your support!
Hi All,
I rattled some cages today and am going to get things my way to the best of my ability. The reality in my world right now is that I have a full incision down my back. There are no signs that anything else is damaged or non-functional from all of the tests I had. My legs don't work right now. I can wiggle my toes and ankles on both feet and have some movement in my right knee. I am getting a bit of sensation in my legs. My knees on up to my waist have no feeling. This is scary stuff.
I told the nursing and PT staff that there were so many people giving me information and that so much of it didn't match that I wanted my spine team to visit with me and straighten things out. I called my PCP and my pain doc from home and let them know what I knew and the ideas of sending me to rehab when I cannot stand or take a step or get from the bed t a chair without being hoisted like an old Chevy truck engine through the air. I learned that there are a couple of resources at home, but they wanted me in the hospital, here or there. My pain doc said the fact that I am getting some sensation in my legs is significant because it should come first and walking is probably going to happen but there is no predicting when it will happen.
My entire spine team came and spent a good deal of time with me. My condition is tricky but they are optimistic and explained the CT scans, x-rays, and MRIs and how they have come to this conclusion. They took the vacuum pad off of my incision. as well and my incision is looking good and free of problems (and stapled from end to end.)
I no longer have 3 working IVs and I am now on oral medications rather than morphine. I had the catheter removed and my bladder has worked. My local hospital where all of my docs work has an acceptable rehab unit and if the insurance approves things, I will end up there, probably on Monday. They will have to figure out transportation and I have told them I don't want an ambulance for an hour and a quarter ride because it will be too painful on my incision.
My mood is rough and I'm crying a lot. I didn't sign up for this and have no idea how this all will play out. The people in charge now know that I am a player though--and finding my voice has helped me a lot.
Gentle hugs,
Hi There,
My story gets more and more confusing. I had surgery at 1 PM on Tuesday. I was sitting up, as promised by the anesthesiologist when I went to sleep and didn't have to face the nasty spasms and pain in my right leg. I woke up in confusion at 5:30 in Recovery. That was a big room with about 25 stations and full of color and activity. There were several people around me and the conversation about my legs not moving. They were numb, but I thought that was from surgery--and I was lying flat on my back without problems. I kept asking people about my legs, but nobody was telling me anything. They went and got Floyd and he showed me a bag with bolts and other stuff they removed from my back. He told me about the large nerve shoot that was strangled in my back by bone spurs and scar tissue. They found a place where the allograf had shifted, so they fixed it too. Much of the first surgery was fusing, so they removed several bolts and the upper hook so I'd have more mobility in my back. Things were going well until the monitor indicated that my legs were not moving. That put an end to the surgical work.
They ordered the CT mylogram and a spine CT right after the surgery. There was no fun in being transported so many times from table to table and my friends, I behaved badly with lots of crying and begging, They did the mylogram with me on my side instead of on my tummy like they wanted. Having that injection wasn't fun.
This morning I was able to get my right foot to move and an hour or so later, I got my left foot to move. That has worked a bit all day. As of now, I can move my knees if I am sitting up and I can move my right leg to my knee when I am lying down, I can move my left foot and ankle. I believe I will be able to move my legs and maybe even walk by sometime tomorrow. I might have gotten further today, but my blood pressure stayed really low and I also needed a transfusion before I had to go have an awful, awful MRI of my spine. I cried throughout the entire test. The table was so hard and I had to lie on my large incision for over 20 solid minutes, I was a mess and have been doing some comfort eating.
Tomorrow, I hope to get the results from these tests. I pray my legs will work so they can remove the catheter. The steroids are making it burn. At least I didn't have to wake up with the tube in my throat and in ICU.
Quite honestly, I don't know what is next. I'm guessing I'll be here for a bit longer as these unknowns get answered. I'm so grateful for the prayers and warm thoughts being sent my way. I am feeling them amidst this confusion.
Gentle hugs,

Ban Alcohol?
*** Appreciate your comments *** :-)
Isn't it ironic? A beer company taking the lead towards fighting alcohol abuse. It's like an ad on the local TV by the National Gaming Board - "gamble responsibly", I mean gambling is bad fullstop! and then there's the little label on the cigarette packet that states " Smoking can kill". One wonders why they were introduced in the first place? Why don't we just do away with these manufacturing companies - would that solve the problem? What's the point of having a ban on alcohol, when the brewery is still brewing?
As I've heard many say - I drink beer so the workers at the brewery can get paid.
But with all its irony, it's a good thing - that they are also trying to get people to drink responsibly.
Yes alcohol is not only the social lubricant but is also the biggest social problem that is being faced in the country. An Alcohol Abuse Symposium being held recently in the country brought together representatives from both the private and the public sector to discuss the issues of alcohol abuse and ways to overcome such. It is great to know that after numerous deaths, statistics and millions spent on alcohol related issues, the government finally is trying to address the issue.
Statistics from WHO global status report of 2004 - in 1991 in Papua New Guinea, 40% of hospital admissions were alcohol-related.
"Every minute one person is injured from an alcohol related crash and with alcohol-related economic opportunity cost at K78.5 annually," states Acting Prime Minister Sam Abal
Alcohol abuse affects the economy but greatly it is the family unit that suffers the most. When the husband is the sole provider and he is also a big alcohol consumer, his fortnightly wage is spent greatly on alcohol, leaving little to buy food, clothing and other neccessities. There is little to eat, the wife gets bashed up, no improvement in standard of living, school fees are not being paid, the kids end up staying home and resort to roaming the streets and end up getting involved in alcohol, other drugs and criminal activities and so the cycle continues.
A domestic violence study carried out by the constitutional law reform commission found that 71% of women interviewed considered alcohol as a major cause of marital problems, of those beaten by their spouse, 26% related the incident to alcohol and others.
What is alcohol abuse? Is it abuse of alcohol or alcohol to abuse.
During adolescence, drinking was seen as the "in-thing" and a lot of money was spent on alcohol. Considering the amount I've spent on it during my younger years, if I had invested it all, I'd have a good sum of money today and if I had not been too caught up in drinking activities, my life would have taken another turn. I lost my best friend and step brother to alcohol related deaths. If they were not drinking that night, they wouldn't have gone out and gotten killed. My female relative is now having complications in pregnancy due to her drinking lifestyle. I have girlfriends who are regret marrying men who continuously drink. Again it's all to do with our life choices and when we choose to say yes or no that determines our fate.
So how can we prevent - we can not ban, as this only makes situations worse and people turn to other illegal substances.
There needs to be support groups and infolines available, something like Alcohol Anonymous and greater awareness especially amongst adolescents, in schools and in the household.
One difficult task also is to get men, especially to realize that they do need help to overcome their problem and to seek counseling and help.
Many women continue to be victims of alcohol abuse and it was about time something was done to stop the abuse from getting worse in the family unit and the community but how can we improve all these when even the law enforcing agencies struggle to fight alcohol abuse themselves.
The biggest social problem
My dear Accholai,
Great piece! Let me start by greeting my friend, hope you are fine with the baby.
Well i wish i knew that man by the name of Alcohol.I would finish him once and for all.The reason my mother died its because of alcohol.The reason of so much infection in my country is alcohol, this has been the biggest social problem in my country.Yes i can agree,that it be abolished.His father, Botswana's founding President Seretse Khama, died at the relatively young age of 59 of cancer and liver problems. He was known to be a heavy smoker and drinker.
Now his son is particularly concerned about alcoholism, which he says can result in ruined lives and misery for many.
Accholai we have so many issues due to alcohol, as much as you have written about it i feel so touched.And thats the main pressing issue that supplement the spread of HIV/AIDS in my country.
You have woven it lady!
All the best
"success will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time " And when confronted conquer with love
It has always been of
It has always been of interest to me that the most dangerous substances are the legalized ones....that a natural herb like medical marijuana (in most places) is illegal in the U.S. but people are allowed to go to the store, night after night, to buy a 24-pack. I grew up watching my father drown himself in beer and whiskey. I witnessed the marital problems that stemmed from it: my mother's depression and silence, my father's lack of connection or relationship to his own children, nights filled with walls being hit in and mornings filled with me, at 12, cleaning up after my drunk father. We lost our house because we "didn't have the money," but the money never seemed to disappear for Budweiser.
But I don't know where to place the blame. People have been drinking alcohol for a very, very long time but coupled (at least in the U.S.) with lewd, sexually-charged, offensive media that makes it appear as though nothing bad ever happens when you get drunk, except maybe the possibility of getting laid (why else is there a woman holding and spraying a garden hose wearing next to nothing?) how are people supposed to react? Thinking for themselves might be a good idea, but the way addiction is fed to a culture can be very strategic on the parts of the people whose intention it is to make big bucks off of ruining lives and families.
Thank you for pouring your energy into this piece!

Wow! Mei, I think Ccholai
Wow! Mei, I think Ccholai should add your comment to her post.
Just to say that Ccholai you've addressed a very sensitive subject. Because sport, events and other gathering are most of the time sponsored by alcohol and ather drugs fabricants. They have the big moneis because our population are addicted.
A survey showed that more student in a colege started drinking and smoking after a sensitizing campaign to promote responsible smoking. The result was that many started smoking to show they are above 18 and others to let people think they have reached 18 while they had not.
It is time we think concrete and smart action to help with this subject.
Trust your HOPES, not your fears... Harmony

Cat Teaches Us How to Finally Kill the Rickroll
- topic:
- Trend Death
- Music
- Animals
Just when you think the Rickroll has finally succumbed to the abrupt and no-longer funny death it so badly deserves, it somehow always manages to rear its ugly red head again.
But just when you've resigned yourself to the harsh reality of a world where the Rickroll cannot be killed, a cat comes along and shows us all the way. There's no such thing as a Rickroll if we simply convince ourselves that Rickrolling doesn't exist.
Rickroll? What Rickroll? That's just another sound I don't like coming out of that thing that my owner is dependent on. I will simply turn it off and I will certainly not send it to any of my friends.
