At the moment, I do not have an endocrinologist or a diabetes educator or, indeed, anyone helping me. I believe passionately in the necessity -- FOR ME (I make no prescriptions for anyone else) -- of eating quite a low-carb diet, in order to try to manage my diabetes, but all the endo's I have seen (and I've seen four, all highly regarded and expensive, since April) buy into the American Diabetic Association guidelines, and want me to eat at least 180 grams of carbs per day. I think this would be disastrous.
I'm currently eating fewer than 40 grams of carbs/day, often fewer than 30, and I'm following the insulin guidelines I was given in April: check my blood sugars before meals, and take 3 units of Novolog if my BS is 100-150, 7 units if it's 150-200, etc.
This ain't working. I am struggling to get my blood sugar levels below 200, and in the morning (I take 28 units of Lantus at night), they are typically over 250. I know I need to increase my insulin, but I don't know how to do this safely. Can anyone advise?
Also, I am pretty desperate, at this point, to find an endocrinologist I can work with. I'm in NYC, but am willing to go just about anywhere to find the right doc. All suggestions WARMLY appreciated.
I can't help you with the doctor recommendations, maggiesara, but I have a few suggestions. I really recommend the book Using Insulin by John Walsh which will give you the guidelines for dosing your insulin. The sliding scale you mention is a very outdated way of dosing bolus (mealtime) insulin. You need to work out an Insulin:Carb ratio so you take the right amount of insulin for the food you are eating. You wouldn't take the same dose of insulin for salad as for pasta! Then you need to figure out your ISF (correction factor - how much one unit of insulin lowers your blood sugar) so you can correct highs. Finally if you are waking up at 250 you are not getting enough basal. I would suggest raising it a couple units at a time and seeing how it improves your fasting blood sugar. You also might try splitting the dose of Lantus, taking 1/2 at night and 1/2 in the morning beause that might work better. If you increase it to 30 keep that for a couple days to see the results before you increase it again.
Using Insulin will explain the I:C ratio, but basically start with 1:15. That is, one unit of insulin for each 15 grams of carbs. So if you eat 30 grams, take 2 units. See how you do. Since you are Type 2 and have some insulin resistance you will probably still be high. So after a couple days, you can try 1:12, etc. Also different meals might be different. For example my ratios for the three meals are 1:6, 1:11 and 1:16. (I am Type 1, so don't have insulin resistance).
I agree with you and Zoe, that the numbers you're seeing are not the numbers you want. Particularly if *you* don't want those numbers. I read John Walsh's other book and agree that Using Insulin will be a big help. "Think Like a Pancreas" is also a very good sort of "owner's manual" for diabetes that I found very readable, like I couldn't put it down.
More specifically, I also agree with Zoe's suggestion to increase your basal to try to fix the fasting numbers you're reporting. Carb counting and ratio balancing hopefully can improve your post-meal #s and then you'll be set. This is, of course, harder than it sounds to talk about but it sounds like you are very sharp in your perception of your numbers and desire to fix them so I think that you are ready to try to go beyond what your current docs are recommending. I hope you can work things out and that you keep coming back with more questions as you run into them!
Zoe, I cannot thank you enough. I'll get the Walsh book and, if you don't mind, I'll holler if (when) I have questions.
Please do!
Hi Maggiesara,
Forst, I second the two recommendations above - "Using Insulin" and "Think Like a Pancreas". Learning how to self-adjust insulin is vital to maintaining good BG control, in my opinion.
Second, the doctors you spoke to are out of date. The American Diabetes Association (not to be confused with the American Dietetic Association!) started accepting low carb diets in 2008 as part of their clinical practice recommendations.
I've just bought both the Walsh and the Scheiner books, and thank you all for the recommendations. I have the Bernstein book, and am actually reading it right now, though it scares me a little: He seems to advocate a VERY low-carb regime, and I have spent too much of my life waltzing with failure in the form of diets I couldn't stick to. I'd be very interested in talking to anyone who works a Bernstein program.
SuperSally, would you mind telling me a bit about protein/insulin ratios? i'm pretty new to the notion that I need to monitor my protein as well as my carbs, but I hadn't heard at all that I would need to adjust insulin for it.
Folks, I can't tell you how grateful I am for the smarts. The medical establishment seems to me to be just out to lunch on this entire issue.
I disagree that eating more carbs reduces the effect of protein. I see protein effects all the time. I am not sure I can disprove the "the standard American diet" as I'm still eating about less carbs than the dietitian rx'ed, 100-150/day instead of the 180-270, the last time I had seen one (2008, when I got my pump...).
The conversion ratio I've seen here and maybe in some books is 53% of protein will convert to carbs. I just use 50% as that's as much math as I'm gonna do.
I would encourage you to focus on establishing your basal first. With a very low carb diet, your blood sugar will primarily be determined by the basal. If you are actually T2 and both insulin resistant and insulin sensitive, you may need much more than 28 units of Lantus. In the end, you need as much insulin as your require.
And to establish my basal, I basically increase the Lantus in 2-unit increments, holding each new level for a few days, until I get the fasting BS I need? And maybe try splitting it, with, say, 1/3 allocated to the morning?
I would recommend to split the Lantus evenly. Lantus will act for 24 hours with some degradation. The splitting helps to overcome the uneven distribution of insulin activity. By using uneven allocations you might work against this goal.
Hi maggiesara,
I'm certainly not going to offer specific advice since I don't have diabetes myself. I'm the mother of a son with type 1. He is following a very low carb regimen and it's working for him. I found Dr. Bernstein's book "The Diabetes Solution" to be particularly helpful. He gives detailed instructions on calculating I:C ratios while eating no more than 24-30 grams of carbs per day. This book has been our bible for diabetes mgmt. Dr. Bernstein does live in New York state. I'm not sure if he still sees patients, but you could try, or he might have recommendations for other doctors that are more in line for what you are trying to do.
-and hang in there. My son and I are early into the d thing, but we've already had to fire one endo. Trust yourself that you are doing what's right for you.
Definitely do not go by the ADA guidelines. Their advice will kill you! I had my worst A1C when I stuck to those guidelines. My favorite book is "Think Like A Pancreas." Before I started bolusing before meals I read it cover to cover in two nights.
My advice would be to go up on your Lantus, maybe by a couple of units and perhaps take it at an earlier time. I remember I would take my Lantus right at bedtime and I would still be waking up at 140. However, since it is long acting it takes awhile for it to kick in, thus not being fully able to combat the whole "Dawn Phenomenon". So I inject three hours before bed now.
I keep my diet to 70 carbs a day and I bolus all of my meals (between 2 and 6 units), unless it is a piece of baked chicken or something.
I think a lot of your problem might be dawn phenomenon. When I wake up high I know it's going to be a high day.
You know, I am thinking more and more that this is a Dawn Phenom issue. I woke up with a BS of 266, and it has not gotten below 240 all day, even though I have eaten fewer than 20 grams of carbs, and have been shooting 7-9 units of NovoLog before each meal. And FWIW -- though I have made this mistake in the past -- I haven't been binging on low-carb stuff or protein, either; my calories for the day are below 1000. So, yeah, I'm thinking more and more that it's a lot more about the basal and the DP than it is about what I eat.
Do you just take the insulin for the protein up front or do you do dual wave or something like that?
I can't help you with DP, maggiesara, as I'm lucky enough not to experience it, but I was wondering if you do corrections when you are that high? To do that you need to know your ISF which is how much one unit of insulin lowers your blood sugar. Mine is 1:30 during the day and 1:60 at night but I'm Type 1, yours will probably be less. To determine it, start conservatively (like 1:30) and see how much your blood sugar comes down after 3 hours. Keep records, then adjust it accordingly. In other words if you don't come down enough after using 1:30 for awhile, try 1:25.
I'm afraid I'm a little unclear on this: The process seems to have too many variables. What I mean is, I'm trying to track both A) how many grams of carbs are 'covered' by 1 unit of insulin, and at the same time B) by how much 1 unit of insulin lowers my blood sugar. Could you clarify?
Yes, they are definitely two different things and I know it's overwhelming when you have to work out so many "math problems"..lol. You might want to focus on one at a time.
1. I:C ratio - is exactly what you said, "how many grams of carbs are covered by 1 unit of insulin....for you...we are all different and you might have different I:C ratios for different meals. This is what you have to figure out over time to accurately bolus for your food.
2. ISF (insulin sensitivity factor)- This is the formula you use to do corrections. The reason I brought this up (though some people don't start it right away) is because you mentioned being high all day. Corrections are a way to determine how much insulin to use when you are too high and want to bring yourself down into range. You can use them a couple hours after a meal (being sure to keep track of your insulin still active) or you can add the correction into your carb bolus (which is what your sliding scale was about).
So both formulas take time to figure out, both are important, but they have too different purposes. 1) to dose for your meals and 2) to correct highs that happen for whatever reason so you don't stay high for hours.
I just do it all at once. Most of the time, it's probably not more than a few oz of meat, maybe 6-7 if I'm really on a roll, and I'll count it as about 15-20G of carbs but usually it's more moderate and I'll just count 5-15, depending on eyeballing it. I've tried dual and square wave boluses but I get better results with the regular all at once boluses. If there's carbs floating around, I don't think the insulin gets too far ahead for a 5-10g hunk of carbs although I know there's lots of people who that's all they eat, in which case a slower hand might be better?
I do mine a little bit differently, although I also "cheat" with a pump and CGM so it may be easier but if a fasting # is high, I'll blame the basal and, if it's high a few days in a row and seems consistent, I'll try to nudge the bolus up 5-10% (like from .8u/ hour to .825U/ hour, like 19.2 vs 19.8U/ day...) and see what happens. In many cases, even a little change like this can move things in the right direction.
If it's the post-meal readings that are off, high or low, I'll turn the basal ratio a bit, again, usually a couple of "clicks", which are .1G of carb/ unit on the Medtronic pump. It will usually cause results.
I try to keep the new settings for a couple of days before thinking about it again. Soemtimes it will get way out of whack but other clues I look at are a lot of little corrections, either insulin or food, that might mean it's time to fix things. I don't worry about the ratio being correct, but moving it in the right direction. Theoretically, it should get it correct but things change so much that it's hard to say for sure sometimes what's going on. Which is probably horrible to say but I think that the being engaged and working is useful.

During his 50 year journalism career Germond gained notability through his political columns, campaign books, memoirs and regular appearances on Sunday talk shows like Meet the Press. Germond's career started at the Monroe, Michigan Evening News and he served as a reporter for the Rochester Times-Union. He was later a Washington Bureau Chief for Gannett Newspapers and finally became a reporter and eventual columnist at the Baltimore Sun. Over the years Germond gained a reputation as a candid and cynical columnist as well as a legendary political horse race handicapper.
Germond made 39 appearances on Meet the Press – the first of which was on September 17, 1972 with moderator Lawrence Spivak. He was a regular commentator for Spivak as well as for MTP moderators Bill Monroe and Tim Russert. He appeared alongside notable guests such as Senator George McGovern, President George H.W. Bush , Governor Nelson Rockefeller , Senator Bob Dole, Senator Robert Byrd and Sargent Shriver. Germond made his last appearance on the program on July 11, 2004 with Tim Russert.
Watch Germond's entire appearance above during the 2000 campaign when he memorably said, "Why do we have to be theater critics?" when asked about Al Gore's performance on television.

I dump the brass into an old pot for one final rinse. The water and brass are poured into the basket and the water ends up in the bottom of the media seperator. The brass in the basket gets bounced around by hand a few times to shake most of the water off.
The brass ends up on an old shop towel on top of a cookie sheet. If I want it to dry faster I can bring it inside by the wood stove.
Most of the water is poured into the top half of the seperator to save it. The pins and water are returned to the tumbler for the next run. The tumbler holds one gallon, which fills it to within a couple inches of the top. I pour any additional water from the top into the tumbler to fill it to the proper level.
With water and pins in the tumbler all you need is two pounds of brass, a squirt of dish soap, a quarter teaspoon of Lemi-shine and secure the gasket and lid. Place it on the base, turn it on, come back in about three or four hours.
I try to run my process in a way that uses as little water as possible and reuses it where possible. The brass comes out beautiful inside and out.
Total time to do this change of brass, including photogtaphy, was about 12 minutes. It took me longer to make this post (two actually as I had more than six pics...) than it did to get another run of brass going.

- Excellent trip covering a wide range of historical and geographical interest. The trip was well planned with good information provided beforehand. Most accommodation was excellent and the cave hotel was fabulous.
Firat, the group leader, is an excellent guide and ensured that we all had a great time and experience. His knowledge and passion for his country is impressive as well as his great sense of humour. Hallis, our driver, was the epitome of calmness and ensured that the long drives were carried out with ease.
This tour is one to be recommended and advise that you try everything-bring extra money for the hot air ballooon trip as you will kick yourself if you miss it. Also worth spending some extra time in Istanbul at the end of your trip as one day is really not enough.
Tips: I dismissed others advice of sink plugs and hats and wished I hadn't. Most hotels didn't have kettles so maybe worth bringing a travel one. Also the insects loved me (no one else) and had many horrible infected bites-the DEET spray is certainly coming with me on future hols! Money is also easily exchanged.

It will take about 12 days to see the effect of your Botox treatment and know if the Botox was spread by the facial. Any results you do not like will resolve within a few months and will not be permanent. You should have a facial or massage a day after your Botox treatment.
I Had a Facial Massage Right After Botox, Will This Damage Eyes, Eyelids Permenantly?
Doctor Answers 3
Botox and a facial
Facial massage after Botox is one if the few things you shouldn't do
A facial massage can move the Botox if its done within 3-4 hours of the injection. There is nothing that can be done at this point. If it did move, all side effects will not be permanent and go away in 3-4 months. Other things you shouldn't do after Botox: no hot tubs, no saunas, no working out, no placing your face in a horseshoe for massage for 3-4 hours. I also avoid procedures which cause swelling like Fraxel Dual on same day because I've seen diffusion into areas where I didn't inject.

Facial massage after Botox
It's advisable to avoid facial and face massages immediately after a Botox treatment because of the concern for spread. However, even it does spread, it will not cause any permanent damage. In the worst case scenario, you may develop some eyelid ptosis for a few weeks (which can be improved with the use of apraclonidine drops). In the best case scenario, the massage will have no effect on your Botox treatment outcome.

Cantrell leads WDC girls track team to third-place finish
Charley Cantrell captured two firsts while Rachel Craig and Logan Meyer each earned one Tuesday in the Hawley Booster Invitational.
The Wadena-Deer Creek girls placed third in a nine-school field with 76 points. The WDC boys placed sixth with 23 points.
Cantrell turned the 800 course in 2:30.63 and after the boys' 800 ran a 5:43.34 to win the 1,600.
Craig placed in four events and won the shot put with a 35-5.5. The senior star also placed third in the discus with a 99-3, third in the high jump with a 4-10 and third in the 100 hurdles with a time of 18.25.
Meyer continued to dominate the shot put event with a winning 48-3.75. Pelican Rapids' Dan Wood was a distant second with a toss of 42-7.
Lindsey Eliason came up with a third place dash in the 100. The WDC senior was one of three sprinters under the 14 second mark with a 13.97.

Does anybody have the book names generated in greek? Is that possible anyway?
Does anybody have the book names generated in greek? Is that possible anyway?
It is unclear what you are asking. To which books are you referring? Books of the New Testament? Lexicons? Grammars? If you would be a bit more specific perhaps someone would be able to assist you. Blessings.
Oh, sorry about that.
I was referring to the book names you can change in the BW Options-Section (Tools-> Options-> Book Names), which is responsible for the displaying of the book names in the browse list box and the book name in the browse window.
I was wondering if it´s also possible to have these generated in greek and if somebody have them possibly already generated.
(Even though that´s not a life-changing question and not really relevant for the work with BW it came up in my mind a few days ago and I asked myself about that...)

TEENAGER Filimoni Savou - a Saracens academy player and former sports scholar at Terrington Hall School - has won a place in England's Under-17s rugby union squad.
The 17-year-old will play in an U17s international against France on Saturday, April 26, at Broadstreet RUFC in Coventry.
Terrington Hall families turned out in force to support Savou when he attended the England U17 training and final selection weekend at Leeds earlier this month.
Around 40 talented U17 players drawn from a range of academy clubs including Exeter, Bath, Leicester Tigers, Wasps, Newcastle, Worcester and Saracens sought to impress selectors under the watchful eye of England rugby union coach Stuart Lancaster.
Savou said: "It was an incredible experience competing at that level and I was thrilled to be told I had made the U17 England squad. To have been now selected for the team's first international is a great honour."
The first Fijian to be awarded a scholarship to a British School, Savou took up his sports scholarship at Terrington in September 2010.
Terrington Hall headmaster Jon Glen said: "It is a very proud day to hear that he has made selection to the England U17 rugby team."

Review St. Cloud State University
Think. Do. Make a Difference. That is the motto of my current college, St. Cloud State University. Here, the professors genuinely enjoy the field that they were teaching and want their students to succeed in it, too. Within the first month of the 2016-2017 academic school year, there have been a number of different events for students to attend in which they can meet other students, enjoy free activities, and have an involvement on campus. As recently reported on the news, my community has recently undergone a traumatic occurrence at the local mall ten minutes away. Eight people were stabbed, none of which were students at the university, and the assailant was killed on site. Since this, the community has really come together to work through this difficult time. Within the past few days, the school has offered many opportunities for gatherings in which students and faculty could find some light in this time of darkness. The school genuinely cares. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for an affordable, amazing college experience. St. Cloud State University is a school that I would choose time and time again. Go, Huskies!
I genuinely love St. Cloud State. What drew me to this particular college was a combination of the price, the atmosphere and the academics. For what this school is worth per semester, I think that it is 100% worth coming here. Granted, it's not the most prestigious school in the world but the academics seem to be worth my time and money, and the atmosphere is great!
As a freshmen in my first year of college. I found this experience very surprising, because this changed my mind of what I saw in this town. A bunch of my friends were very encouraging for me to see the different side of the town and I did many different clubs that I had so many friends and I got involved to help my community to make my campus a better place to live for everyone. The professors I have taken were very helpful and guileful for my successions this school year. The classroom size is a good size for understanding, these professors will remember the students names. I would tell my friends from Minot North Dakota to go to my university and enjoy the life of a college student. Do it at SCSU!

U of M braces for hockey revelers: 'There are no bystanders'
MINNEAPOLIS -- Hopes are high for the Minnesota Gophers men's hockey team this weekend.
Hopes also are high that hometown fans celebrate "with class."
University officials and Minneapolis police said Friday that they are prepared if revelers turn violent after Saturday night's NCAA Frozen Four championship game in Philadelphia between the Gophers and Union College.
They are on high alert after a small melee after the Gophers' semifinals win Thursday and previous game-day riots in the Dinkytown neighborhood adjacent to the university campus.
"This is a reminder to fans seeking to celebrate that they should do so appropriately," Pamela Wheelock, vice president of university services, said Friday. "If things escalate, police make the distinction that there are no bystanders. If you are here, you are subject to arrest."
Wheelock said university and Minneapolis police have been working together for two months to prepare for possible violence this weekend.
About 300 officers will patrol Dinkytown and surrounding neighborhoods Saturday, she said.
After Thursday's last-second win over longtime rival North Dakota, hundreds of Gopher fans gathered in Dinkytown to celebrate — and the celebration got out of hand.
Unruly fans climbed on police cars, threw bottles and cans at officers, lit fires in trash cans and scaled lightposts. Dozens of police used tear gas and pepper spray to bring the crowd under control. Peace was restored by 1 a.m.
Ten people were arrested — nine for disorderly conduct and unlawful assembly, and one for minor consumption, university officials said.
"This was several hundred people gathered to celebrate, and a small few turned it into something negative," said Wheelock, who commended police for acting quickly.
This wasn't the first time Gophers hockey revelry has spiraled out of control.
In 2002, when the Gophers men's hockey team won its first championship in 23 years, students rioted for more than six hours, set fires, smashed windows, jumped on cars and pelted police with rocks. Twenty-five people were arrested, and damages were estimated at more than $55,000.
In 2003, about 2,000 people gathered in Dinkytown to again celebrate the hockey team's national title; things, again, turned violent. Cars were overturned and set ablaze; business windows were broken; signs were damaged; and emergency workers were pelted with bottles and rocks. About a dozen people were arrested.
The back-to-back championship riots led the university to change its student code of conduct, making it a punishable offense to engage in unlawful behavior off-campus if it stemmed from a university event.
This year, university officials are reminding students of the code and what it means for anyone who takes part in a melee — and even those who might watch one unfold.
"Bystanders … can be held accountable just for watching unlawful behavior," Danita Brown Young, vice provost and dean of students, said Friday.
Sanctions range from "a warning all the way up to expulsion from this university."
Student body president Mike Schmit called Thursday's fracas "embarrassing."
"Last night's disturbance was not a good reflection of the university student body," Schmit said, reminding students that "just being present means you are at risk of being arrested for unlawful assembly."
Connor Johnson, 21, a student who lives about a block from Dinkytown and witnessed some of Thursday's violence, said he plans to move his car from the area Saturday, out of concern it could be damaged, and will likely stay at his fraternity to celebrate.
"It's definitely not worth getting arrested," Johnson said. "After what happened last night, win or lose, I think it's going to happen again."
While university and city officials are also excited about Saturday's potential title win, they said they hope students can keep their celebrations in check.
"You don't score extra points by being an idiot after your team has already won the game," Minneapolis City Council member Jacob Frey said. "We're absolutely going to kick Union's butt. And after, we might party all night. But we're going to do so in a respectful and safe manner."
He added, "We can win the game … and act with class."

Hi, After reading horror stories from people on this forum (side effects), I admit I feel scared to try Dysport! It was recommended to me after a consultation with a dermatologist to address issues of my concern (mimic lines on the forehead, lines around my eyes). I never had it done before, and the Dr. recommended 120 units for the forehead, eyes and nose. I also mentioned that I would like to keep the natural look. Is that the normal amount and are there any positive experiences with Dysport?
Positive Experiences Dysport?
Doctor Answers 12
Re: Positive Experiences With Dysport
It is quite understandable that you would feel concerned about using Dysport after reading examples of poor results.
The recommended dosage you mentioned sounds about average.
With any cosmetic procedure, the quality of the outcome depends on the skill of the physician. So it is important to do your research and find someone who is board certified and can offer examples of their work in the form of photos/videos.
Also, many people are able to maintain a natural look. So again, this really depends on the doctor's technical skill and their ability to create strategies that would look best for the patient.
If you are looking for positive Dysport stories, here is a patient video you might be interested in.

Excellent results with Dysport
Injection technique is far more critical to a natural outcome than is the product. While they do have some slight theoretical differences, Botox and Dysport are extremely similar in their clinical profiles. Several studies have compared them head to head, suggesting Dysport may last longer for Crow's feet, may have a slightly quicker onset of action, and may diffuse more.
The bottom line is that In the right hands you will have beautiful results with either Botox or Dysport.
Dysport Side Effects
Hi Ani. Dysport has been on the market in Europe for the same time as Botox has been in the US. It is an excellent product with the same side effects as Botox. We prefer it because our patients get more of it for the same price as Botox and this increases the duration of the effects.
A lot of the folks that post on Realself has had bad experiences and are looking for expertise. This is the nature of the industry. Those that are happy with their procedures don't need Realself as much because everything went as planned.
Dysport is one of the easiest cosmetic procedures to have so there is very little to be concerned about.

Dysport or Botox
These products are similar and though there may be some advantages to using one or the other in certain areas it really is an issue of your surgeon's preference and would suggest you discuss with your surgeon.
The effects of Dysport are very comparable to the effects of Botox. 120 units of Dysport is a modest amount, but you should still get some good results.
Dysport versus Botox
I have been using both products for a long period of time and from my experience they are fairly similar. I find that some patients may prefer one over another for whatever reason (better result, longer action, etc), so there is some subjectivity to the neurotoxins. However, most of the result and the rate of complications depend on the injector expertise and the dosage administered. So, if you find an experienced MD injector (facial plastic/ plastic surgeon/ dermatologist/ occuloplastic) you should be happy with the result. Good luck
Dysport is a great product. If used properly results are very desirable. 120 units does not sound like too much for those three areas. Make sure you are getting injected by an experienced provider.
Good luck. Enjoy!

Positive experiences with Dysport
I have been using Dysport since it was FDA approved, and Botox for nearly 20 years (long before its FDA approval). Both products are very similar. As long as you see an experienced, physician injector, I would think you will be happy. For a full treatment I usually do 150 units (full forehead, between the eyebrows, and down to the crow's feet), so 120 units is modest and therefore reasonable. Please understand that a lot of people use the internet to issue warnings and complaints, and that as a society we unfortunately don't post overwhelmingly positive experiences about very much.
Can I expect a positive experience with Dysport?
Problems with Botox or Dysport are typically injector related. Either the product is put in the wrong place or an excessive amount is used. These problems are much less common in the hands of an experienced injector which includes most of the plastic surgeons and dermatologists on RealSelf. The amount you've been recommended is not unusual for the forehead, glabella, crow's feet and nasal "bunny" lines. I actually prefer Botox over Dysport as Botox has less tendency to spread beyond the injection area. However, both are great products and you'll find that about 1/2 of plastic surgeons prefer one and the other 1/2 prefers the other. I hope this information is helpful.

Dysport forehead lines
Dear Ani,
- In Europe, Dysport was called Reloxin and has been out for longer than Dysport has
- I use it more often than Botox because the onset of effects are quicker
- 120units is a normal amount, typically it takes 50 units for the glabella, 50 for the crow's feet, 20-40 for the forehead, and about 20 for the nose

Mass. casino foes can proceed with ballot question
BOSTON — Casino gambling foes have received a court injunction allowing them to begin collecting signatures to put a question on next year's ballot.
The group "Repeal the Casino Deal" is pushing an initiative that would repeal the 2011 state law that allows up to three casinos and one slots parlor in Massachusetts.
Attorney General Martha Coakley had disqualified the ballot initiative, ruling that it could violate the state constitution by resulting in the uncompensated taking of property from casino developers.
Kathleen Conley Norbut, a member of the group, said it received the court injunction late Friday giving casino opponents the green light to begin collecting signatures.
Norbut said that while the injunction doesn't constitute a final resolution, it has given a boost to activists hoping to block the construction of the gambling facilities in Massachusetts.

Google's Eric Schmidt: "Don't Be Evil" was Stupid
Tiffany Kaiser
May 14, 2013 11:00 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Schmidt admits that he thought the "don't be evil" slogan was stupid when he first came to Google
In a recent interview with NPR, Google Chairman Eric Schmidt said that he used to think his company's famous slogan -- "don't be evil" -- was stupid.
NPR host Peter Sagal
interviewed Schmidt
recently on a segment called "Not My Job," which humorously speaks with important leaders and includes a game of some sort.
Sagal asked Schmidt how Google came up with the slogan, "don't be evil."
"Well, it was invented by Larry [Page] and Sergey [Brin]," said Schmidt. "And the idea was that we don't quite know what evil is, but if we have a rule that says don't be evil, then employees can say, I think that's evil. Now, when I showed up, I thought this was the stupidest rule ever, because there's no book about evil except maybe, you know, the Bible or something.
"So what happens is, I'm sitting in this meeting, and we're having this debate about an advertising product. And one of the engineers pounds his fists on the table and says, that's evil. And then the whole conversation stops, everyone goes into conniptions, and eventually we stopped the project. So it did work."
Sagal then humorously accused Schmidt of being the "businessman" type out of the group (among Page and Brin) who felt that an American business couldn't be evil.
"You're coming in, like, you're a businessman who's been successful in all kinds of Silicon Valley business," said Sagal. "And you come in, and you're like this thing about not being evil, that'll never work in American business. What, are you crazy, kids?"
Sagal and Schmidt discussed a few other topics as well, such as
Google Glass
. Sagal asked Schmidt what the glasses are used for exactly.
"Well, we don't quite know yet," said Schmidt. "We have maybe 2,000 of these. We've shipped them out to developers, and we're seeing what they develop. There's obviously issues, shall we say, of appropriateness of how people are going to use these things. There's a right time to have Google Glass on, and there's a right time to have it off, if you take my drift.
"So kind of watch and see what people do with it and then decide what to do."
"We are going to continue to work with them to make sure they understand the reality of the Internet. A lot of these people don't have Ph.Ds, and they don't have a degree in computer science." -- RIM co-CEO Michael Lazaridis

Big Fish Tries to eat Man (video)
This is a really wacky video.
I don't know what this guy was thinking, but it looks as if he's "taunting" a fish…a really BIG fish.
Well, Mr. Fish decides, hey, if you're offering something, I think I'll take a bite…of YOU.
Ryan Reynolds is the, so-called, fisherman. Hey, Ryan. What's the matter with using your tackle?
Next time, bring a pole!

Film Synopsis:
When American writer Mark Halliday (Cummings) begins a relationship with the very married Margot Wendice (Kelly) in London, he unknowingly sets off a chain of blackmail and murder. After sensing Margot's affections for Halliday, her husband, Tony Wendice (Milland), fears divorce and disinheritance, and plots her death. Knowing former school chum Captain Lesgate aka Charles Swann (Anthony Dawson) is involved in illegal activities, Tony blackmails him into conspiring to kill Margot. When she ends up killing Lesgate in self-defense, Tony implicates her as being guilty of premeditated murder. Halliday must out-strategize Tony to save Margot's life.
My Take:
Dial M for murder is a film adaptation of the stage play of the same name both of which were penned by Frederick Knott. Directed by the master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock the story revolves around Tony Wendice an ex-professional tennis player living in a London flat with his wealthy wife Margot. Tony retired from tennis after a few injuries and Margot's complaints about his busy schedule. The couple had grown distant and Margot began an affair with American crime-fiction writer Mark Halliday, which Tony secretly discovered. Motivated by resentment, jealousy, and greed, Tony devises a plan to have Margot murdered. Enlisting the aid of a shady former acquaintance Tony's diabolical and calculated plot is carried out. Things don't quite go according to plan which results in Tony's accomplice as the "murder" victim and Margot on the hook for it. Planned or not things are working out for Tony save for one very minute detail/assumption on his part and a steely eyed gumshoe willing to follow up on a hunch.
I wouldn't describe myself as a devout Hitchcock fan simply because I haven't seen all of his films. I do consider myself a fan and have enjoyed most of his classic works. This is my first time seeing Dial M for murder and while not up to the level of his best it is an engaging crime thriller. I don't see it as much of mystery since the "who what where and why" is revealed up front. I didn't mind that and liked how things played out once Tony's plan goes awry. I was eager to see Tony get his comeuppance and thought that the unfolding elements relative to the revealing details was nicely done. I liked the cinematographic work especially considering the majority of the film takes in the small apartment/flat. Ray Miland is icy in the villainous role of Tony while Grace Kelly aptly conveys naïve charm coupled with elicit romantic complicity involving Mark.
Ranked number 9 on the American Film Institute's 2008 list of the 10 greatest films in the "Mystery" genre, Dial M for Murder has seen various incarnations of its plot over the years. The most recent being 1998's A perfect Murder starring Michael Douglas, Viggo Mortensen and Gweneth Paltrow which is the film I immediately compared this to. I am not so sure Dial M for murder qualifies as a cinematic classic but it is a noteworthy addition to its genre and in the capable hands of Alfred Hitchcock is an engaging and entertaining film experience.

Dial M for murder 3D comes to Blu-ray Disc from Warner Home Video featuring 1080p MVC encoded video and lossless DTS-HD 1.0 Master Audio sound that has an average bitrate of 1Mbps.
Interestingly Dial M for Murder, was among the first films that helped Warner Bros. introduce 3D in U.S. theatres in the early '50s. According to the press release Warner Bros.' Motion Picture Imaging (MPI) division has meticulously and painstakingly restored the original 3D presentation. To ready Dial M for Murder for this release, MPI's work included a 4K scan of the original camera negative, and a full restoration of the two "eyes," as well as convergence fixes to ensure perfect alignment. In looking at this 3D presentation I was impressed with the reproduction of color/fleshtones, the rich contrast and average but passable black levels. Shadow is a mixed bag however the scene where it counts most, the attack sequence, looks terrific.
Resolution is rarely questionable during close ups. Certain mid level and wide angle shots look oddly soft and lacking in distinctive sharpness. I am not referring to the type of background projection or matte work used during the period as that is easily recognizable. This is a shot to shot variation within the same scene that isn't pervasive but is quite evident. Otherwise the overall quality of images onscreen is very good and exhibits a film like aesthetic that is pleasing. Grain is intact with moderate presence that imparts a noticeably grainy but unobtrusive texture. The native 3D adds discernible onscreen dimension that places objects and people at various stages of depth within the frame but the effects are best described as reserved. I didn't have a problem with that and in certain instances it added an enriching visual element to the film. I didn't notice any deleterious anomalies associated with the video 3D or otherwise other than some mild edge enhancement.
The monaural soundtrack is presented in DTS-HD Master Audio lossless and while it won't knock your socks off I found it delivered the components in the original recording just fine. The auditory is predominantly free of unwanted clicks, pops or background hiss. Dialogue intelligibility is excellent as it is never lost amidst the other sounds coming through the central channel.

Dial M for murder comes to Blu-ray Disc from Warner Home Video featuring 1080p AVC encoded video that has an average bitrate of 23 Mbps.
My impressions regarding the video quality as stated in the 3D portion of the review are applicable to the 2D as well.
Bonus Features:
- Hitchcock & Dial M – 21 minute documentary
- Theatrical trailer
Final Thoughts:
Ranked number 9 on the American Film Institute's 2008 list of the 10 greatest films in the "Mystery" genre, Dial M for Murderr was adapted by Frederick Knott from his hit Broadway stage play. The film stars Grace Kelly in her Hitchcock film debut and Ray Milland, Robert Cummings and John Williams. Directed by the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, it's an engaging and well executed crime thriller that I found entertaining. It makes its debut on Blu-ray in its native 3D which has been carefully restored by Warner's MPI. The presentation appears to faithfully represent the film's elements although there are a few minor nits to pick. Overall both the 3D and converted 2D imagery allows fans to see this film at home looking as close to its theatrical presentation as possible. The bonus features consist of a theatrical trailer and a decent documentary featuring modern filmmakers discussing Hitchcock and the film. Regardless of its minor shortcomings, if you're a fan this release should have a place in your Blu-ray collection.

it also goes into some depth about the WarnerColor process, which accounts for most of the visual anomalies on the Blu-Ray.
I had the opportunity to see DMFM in 3d, earlier this year at my local Movie Tavern in Fort Worth, TX.
Having only seen the movie on tv, and never in 3d, I was excited about it ... and was not disappointed.
I would say that this movie exhibits 'restrained 3d effects' versus what many folks like as the 'in your face' effect. The one exception being during Margo's attack...the scissors are 'laid in your lap,' something I would have enjoyed how the audience reaction was back in 1954.
From what I have read, Hitchcock was not keen on the idea of shooting in 3d, but I think he did very well, as it is subtle and effective.
I hope that House of Wax, due for release later this year, is an excellent presentation in 3d too.

My guns no longer need to "do it all".

I used to buy guns by trying to justify their purpose or role.
Once I became a firearms instructor I started expanding my collection. I justified it by telling myself I needed to become familiar with not only the guns I liked and wanted to own, but with those that I was (or might) be issued, as well as many of the major ones owned and used as off-duty weapons by our folks.
Then, once I became an armorer, I justified buying more by telling myself I ought to own an example of whatever it was that was covered by an armorer class (especially if I could buy one under an armorer purchase plan reduced price
). As the classes started to accumulate over the years, so did the guns. I finally discovered I didn't want to own some of the guns covered in some classes.
I know some instructors who have bought guns after classes which they've never fired. They just got put away in a safe. I know one of them who actually doesn't remember what he owns that's he's locked away in his gun room. (Why bother if they aren't useful, or he's not a "collector"?)
I shoot mine.
When I have so many I have a hard time keeping them all clean from shooting, though ... it's starting to become too many.
I could carry a different handgun everyday with which I've qualified, trained & practiced and not carry the same one twice in more than a month.
None of my shoes, boots or sandals can "do everything" for footwear.
My motor vehicles have all served different roles better than others (cars, truck SUV, motorcycles). None are "do everything" vehicles (not well).
My knives contain different designs, sizes, configurations, etc ... and all serve me better in some manners than others.
I have different belts, glasses, jackets, pants, etc.
"make do" with just about any single handgun, but it might eventually involve more of a compromise than I'd care to experience. It would work much better, and I could cover more bases, if I were to limit myself to 2 or 3 handguns (if I
had to
I have some 9's & .40's I rather like to carry.
Not so much most of my .45's anymore, although I own as about many of them as I do 9's & .40's, combined.
I have more than half a dozen 5-shot snubs which see range & carry use (a mix of .38 Spl & .357 Magnum) ... but my assortment of full-size .357, .44 Magnum & .45 Colt revolvers only see occasional range use anymore.
Now, for the first time in more than 25 years, I own a .380 I've been using for range & retirement CCW.
I have too many handguns. There. I said it again.
Of course, I've been thinking about buying another 1-3 more (but not as quickly as I used to buy them). I've got a couple of armorer purchase program forms from a couple recert classes which I've still not yet used.
I haven't been an ardent reloader for almost 30 years, or I'd probably be buying more .44's & .45 Colts (again), and probably revisit my enjoyment of the .41 Magnum.
I'm past the age where I feel like trying to influence other folks about what they ought to own.
As an instructor, my primary interest is the skillset & mindset of the folks with whom I work out on the range (or in the classroom). Their equipment choice is either what they're limited to, or whatever they happen to prefer ... and it doesn't affect me.
When the day comes that I no longer keep my hand in things as a firearms instructor & armorer (meaning no longer having access to an agency range or ammo inventory), then I'll probably whittle down my collection and interest, a bit.
I just bought 2 new pairs of boots (and I already own 4 other pair).

Hi ladies. I'm hoping some of you charting experts can help me. I started charting again this cycle after a few months break. My pre-O temps fluctuated normally, but my post-o temps have been totally flat. I started taking prometrium on 2 DPO at night and my temp has been 98.4 every morning after that. I'm not sure if there is a correlation or not, but just wanted to add that info. If I temp at other times, the thermometer shows a different temp, and the batteries are new. I'm using a BD BBT thermometer - the one that beeps every 4 seconds. Also, I'm temping vaginally and I've been using metrogel (vaginally) for BV since 2 DPO.
Here's my chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/SKJ2011
Thanks for any thoughts!
I'm not sure how the meds might affect things, but I think it's most likely that you're just experiencing a plateau. I have a few charts like that. Sometimes I'd get a pattern going from one temp for a few days to another temp for a few days and then back again. But it always dropped for AF and I always got that biphasic pattern so I never worried about it too much. Your chart looks awesome, btw... very clear O, nice spike.
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Thanks Jaimee. I'm really glad I charted this cycle b/c I am happy to see my temp jump. This is the best cycle I've had PP. Here's to hoping for this cycle or one of the next few.
I hate to be a downer but, since you started taking it at 2dpo, you cannot be sure that you Oed. The temp jump was most likely caused by the prometrium. I'm not saying you didn't O. I'm just saying that you can't know for sure since you need at least 3 consecutive high temps to confirm O. Taking progesterone will also stop your body from producing fertile cervical fluid even if you didn't O. That's the purpose of progesterone. It's supposed to stop the body from being fertile and possibly releasing another egg after ovulation and to make things conducive to a pregnancy.
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
I agree that progesterone will raise temp, but your temp spiked and your cervix went low and firm before you started taking the meds. Yes, technically you need three high temps to confirm O, but you've got two and other signs, so I'd say it's pretty likely. Again, I don't know the affect of the meds on your body- whether it would make sense that a regulated dose would cause regulated temps or not. It seems to me that things would still fluctuate a bit based on what your own body was producing, but I have no direct experience.
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Problem with the 2 day temp spike is that they are open circled, which means they aren't completely accurate for some reason. You really need to wait until you have at least 3 consecutive high temps before starting progesterone. One or 2 days is not going to make much difference at that point but too early could stop you from Oing at all.
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
I agree with Jaimee. I had clear signs of O, other than just the temp jump. I've never had an annovulatory cycle, so I have no doubt that I did O. Also, the temps I had before starting the prometrium (night on 2 DPO) are much higher than my pre-O temps. On 2 DPO, my temp was 98.2 at 5:10am, an hour before my usual temping time (615). And, the prometrium temps are in line with my temps on 1 DPO and 2 DPO. So, I think it's peculiar that the prometrium didn't raise my temps much, but that they are the exact same everyday. I could see it being just the prometrium if the my temp went up more and stayed there. But the flatline just seems strange regardless.
Again, I'm not saying you didn't O. I'm just saying you can't be sure since you started the progesterone supplementation before you confirmed O with temps.
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
I think that MarineWife makes a good point about waiting 3 full days before starting the progesterone, but I also think you did O, especially since the temps are disturbed b/c they were early, not late. Just something to consider for next cycle (if necessary).
So, is the idea with supplementation that you test at the time of expected AF and if it's negative, stop the progesterone to make sure AF comes?
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Yeah. My OB actually told me to start the progesterone on the day of the +OPK, but I knew better Since I wasn't charting before this cycle (second one taking progesterone), I'd forgotten that 3 temps confirms O, so I started when I was convinced. For next cycle, I'll remember to wait.
I have 12 days of progesterone, then I test and if positive, I call doc to see what to do. Before I started on the progesterone, my LP was all over the place between 7 to 12 days. November's cycle was 12, December was 7, then first cycle on prometrium (last month), LP was 12 days, but I started to spot on 12 DPO and bled without needing to stop the progesterone. So, we shall see what this cycle brings.
Just wanted to say thanks for your thoughts MarineWife and Jaimee. I hate hearing that I "might not have O'ed" after being at this for nearly a year, but I understand what you are saying about the 3 temps to confirm O. Sorry if I came across as snappy - just ready for this TTC thing to be behind me.
i know how frustrating and heart wrenching the TTC journey can be. I've charted since 2001 after having infertility problems and have been able to have 3 babies since then. I did have to take progesterone after O to help sustain my lp. I did it for many cycles so I know how it works.
I'm glad you knew better than your OB and waited at least a couple of days before starting the progesterone. Not only does a + opk not guarantee O, it also doesn't guarantee O for the very next day. You can O as much as 72 (maybe even 96, can't remember now since it's been a while since I did all of that) hours after your first + opk.
I hope this is it for you!
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
Your chart is looking good! When do you plan to test?
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Funny you should ask. I was going to wait until Saturday b/c that's what FF recommended and it was to be my last dose of progesterone, but my temp was WAY up this morning so, I test and BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tested twice on two different brands and both were nice pink lines before the time limit. I'm in total shock.
YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!! HH9!!!! Go join your DDC social group!!! Looks like you're due October 22nd! Yay!
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Thanks Jaimee!!!!
Have you called your OB about continuing the progesterone?
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
Thanks MarineWife! I talked to the OB today and I'm going to keep taking the progesterone until my first appt at 8 weeks. Then, we'll see how my progesterone levels are and go from there. Sounds like a reasonable plan to me.
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!

WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — All authorities are saying for sure is that they found the lifeless body of a small boy, apparently cast off the side of a highway in central Massachusetts.
An autopsy should reveal if the child is Jeremiah Oliver, the Fitchburg 5-year-old missing for months before police learned of his disappearance.
Jeremiah's case has led to criminal charges against his mother and her boyfriend and calls for changes within the state's child welfare agency. Three Massachusetts workers have been fired.
Authorities say the body found Friday off Interstate 190 about 12 miles from Jeremiah's home matched his height and weight.
The Worcester (WUS'-tur) County prosecutor says authorities can't make a positive ID until the state medical examiner conducts an autopsy.

One of the more unusual places of worship in the City of Churches is opening its doors this weekend for the inaugural Open House Adelaide.
The North Adelaide Baptist Church is more like a theatre or lecture hall in design than a traditional church or cathedral.
The church was opened in 1870 and has an imposing set of steps at the front which make for a grand entrance.
The first thing you notice as you walk through the doors is the sloping floor with its 1:7 gradient.
Built in the Venetian style, the other unusual design feature are the pews, which have been laid out in concentric arcs.
Church member Quentin Monk explains it was built as a "preacher's church" so that every person seated had an uninterrupted view of the pulpit.
Likewise, the minister could see all the worshippers.
"So they had to be careful to remain upright and awake."
The church is thought to have been modelled on the London tabernacle of the famous Baptist preacher C.H. Spurgeon.
The first Baptist Church in North Adelaide was established in Brougham Court in the 1840s.
A division in the congregation saw a breakaway group move to Lefevre Terrace in 1848 before moving to Tynte Street and holding services in the nearby Temperance Hall while the church was under construction.
Quentin points out that in those days Tynte Street was the 'High Street' of North Adelaide.
When the congregation purchased Town Acre Block 863 they not only set about building the church but also a hall, Sunday School and stables at the rear.
The Manse, which today is leased as a restaurant, wasn't built until 1882.
The North Adelaide Baptist Church, 146-156 Tynte Street, North Adelaide will be open Saturday May 19 from 2pm-4pm and Sunday May 20 from 9.30am-11am which includes the regular Sunday service at 10am.
The church is also open every Wednesday morning from 10am-12noon.
Open House Adelaide is being held as part of the About Time: South Australia's History Festival.

Apparently Sony has been outsourcing their R&D team from somewhere in the Caribbean lately which is how they came up with the name "R" for their new line of computers. Unfortunately lead designer Jack Sparrow could not be reached for comment due to what his rep calls "swashbuckling and pillaging." What Sony is telling us however, is that basically the R line will destroy anything else. Being a Type-R computer, expect lots of ricer kids to be going to CompUSA to get fake Type-R stickers for their PCs. Don't be fooled though. The real Type-R has everything you could want. The fact that you can burn SACDs with it alone is pretty cool if you ask me. Aside from that, it's available with a Pentium D 820 (2.8Ghz) CPU, 1Gb of RAM, a 256Mb GeForce 6600, a DL/RAM DVD-multi-burner, a TV tuner and 320Gb of HDD space. Wow. Expect it to retail for 1500 Euros ($1844 USD).

Sephora Collection Glossy Gloss Reviews
Nice GlossThis isn't a bad gloss at all. I was actually quite impresed by it because I usually find Sephora Collection cosmetics to be lacking in quality. I did not find it to be sticky or too thick. A lot of products tend to leave my lips feeling dry at the end of the day, but this product did not do that. The main issue I had with this gloss is the really sweet smell and some shades are pretty shimmery...read more. The staying power was decent for a gloss, and was around 3 hours. The pigment was also good. This gloss also comes in a variety shades, so there is something for everyone. My personal favorites are Maple Syrup and Rosy Glow. At $10, I do think it is a a bit overpriced. — 5 years, 1 month agokristen_nol_williford | 20 reviews
