Push ups can do great things for your strength, balance, and mobility if done correctly... but when done incorrectly, they can lead to injuries and muscle imbalances that take a while to come back from.

1. Mauve leggings are NOT sweaty leg day leggings and I really need to stop doing this to myself. 2. "Boring" compound movements are and will always be my favorite and the first thing I teach my PT clients. 3. Accessory movements only do so much for those small twitch fiber muscles, big movements like deadlifts and squats challenge and strengthen your entire body (if done correctly) and have a bigger impact on growing that 🍑 . . . #legday #fuelyourdestiny #transformationtuesday #intermittentfasting #bangenergy #deadlift #girlswholift #welcometotheblackparade #mauvepants #lululemon #barefoot #ihateshoes #ialsohatemakinghashtags #butlikeifeellikeishould #someonesetmefreefromsocialmedia #comment #below #ifyou #readthese

Hitting a little shoulders & biceps on the cables today at @e60fitnessarlington . . . I've gotten a lot of questions lately about how much protein people need in the day, and honestly it's completely different for everyone! The amount of protein (and food in general) you need depends on your activity level, metabolism, goals, and much more. But, no matter how much I'm consuming, I always turn to @vpx_sports Protein Rush when I don't have time for a full meal. It tastes amazing and it has a resealable cap so you can drink it in as many servings as you'd like! (Full bottle is 40g Protein, 7g Carbs, 3g Fat) . . . You can always use my code JFR25 at vpxsports.com to save 25% on protein, @bangenergy, @redline_energy and more! All created by the legend @vpxredlineceo
Caution: Make sure contents of preworkout aingle serving are at the bottom before opening and making a huge mess 🤦🏼♀😂🤷🏼♀ . . . A little hip abductor action for ya today 🍑🔥 . . . . Have you tried @BangEnergy 's Bang Master Blaster pre-workout yet? . Bang Master Blaster (BMB) is the most potent pre-workout on the market today. It contains a whopping dose of 27 grams of active ingredients. BMB contains 350 mg of caffeine, Super Creatine, 2:2:1 BCAAs, Betaine, Beta-Alanine, Citrulline Malate, and Creatine Monohydrate. 2 studies support BMB at the University of South Alabama and after 1-month of BMB resulted in a: 💥 6.9-pound increase in lean muscle, 💥 22.5-pound improvement in the bench press, and 💥 52.5-pound increase in the squat .

You 👏🏼Don't👏🏼Need👏🏼Fancy👏🏼Ass👏🏼Equipment👏🏼To👏🏼Build👏🏼Muscle!! You don't need to jump up a stair master to build a booty. You don't need to hang up side down while doing tricep extensions to tighten your arms. . . . . You have 100+ lbs of body weight with you at all times that you can use to transform yourself 💪🏼Stop over complicating exercise. . . . . One of my biggest struggles being a trainer is having people tell me that they "can't" get in shape because they can't afford a gym membership. This is a huge reason I'm writing the @busygirltone e-books. Everyone has the ability to get in shape and create the body they desire, you just have to know what to do and how to use your own body to challenge yourself. . . . . This Friday, challenge yourself to try something new, without using extra equipment!
No space or weights? No problem! Grab your pupper and find a little spot for a few dog-weighed exercises. @redline_energy & this sunny day have leala and I sweating on this balcony! 🌞💪🏼 @vpxredlineceo @vpx_sports @redline_energy 🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀

Acipimox to Improve Hyperlipidemia and Insulin Sensitivity Associated With HIV
|The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U.S. Federal Government. Read our disclaimer for details.

|Condition or disease
|Insulin Resistance Cardiovascular Diseases Heart Diseases HIV Infections Hypertriglyceridemia Hyperlipidemia
|Drug: Acipimox
|Not Applicable
HIV infected patients treated with HAART are at increased risk for developing significant dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and abnormal patterns of fat distribution. While the exact mechanism responsible for these changes is not known, there is increasing evidence that patients with HIV infection and fat redistribution have increased basal rates of lipolysis and elevated circulating free fatty acids (FFA). Patients with HIV associated lipodystrophy have increased FFA levels that correlated directly with impaired glucose metabolism and triglyceride concentrations. Furthermore, acute inhibition of lipolysis in patients with HIV lipodystrophy and insulin resistance results in improvement in insulin sensitivity. However, long-term administration of lipolytic blocking agents has not been evaluated in this patient population. Acipimox, a nicotinic acid analogue and a potent inhibitor of lipolysis, is an established therapy for dyslipidemia. In addition, through effects on lowering circulating FFA, acute administration of acipimox has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity in other populations, including lean and obese individuals and patients with type II diabetes. This study will test the hypothesis that chronic administration of acipimox will improve hyperlipidemia and insulin sensitivity among HIV infected patients experiencing HAART associated metabolic disturbances.
The study will be a 3-month double-blind placebo-controlled trial of 250 mg of acipimox three times daily in 30 patients with HAART lipodystrophy. The primary clinical endpoint of this study will be the change in fasting triglyceride concentration, comparing baseline values to those obtained after 3 months of acipimox or placebo. Insulin sensitivity, an important secondary endpoint, will be determined by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp studies. Rates of lipolysis in the fasting state will be quantified by a 3-hour infusion of stable isotope-labeled glycerol. Indirect calorimetry will be used to assess changes in resting energy expenditure. Cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) imaging of the thigh and abdomen will allow for measurement of visceral and subcutaneous fat areas. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) will be used to determine whole body fat mass.

★★★★★ - "Keith & his crew were excellent yet again! They've done 3 projects for us now, restoring heavily damaged (easily further damaged) 100 year old pine floors. When the Mother's Day home tour came through everyone was commenting on how great our floors looked!"
Philip B., Hardwood Floor Installation in Rowlett, TX2020-02-12
★★★★★ - "Wonderful work on refinishing a complete marble bathroom!!!"
Janie S., Floor Refinishing in Rowlett, TX2019-08-12
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay did an amazing job on my brick floors! The floors had not been treated in 15 years. He. stripped the floors, stained them and put the final gloss coat on. The floors look brand new! I cannot believe they are the same floors! He is professional, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable and honest. I highly recommend him for any job you might have! I guarantee you will be happy with the work he does!"
Jenny M in Dallas, TX2019-05-24
★★★★★ - "Keith refinished our 50 plus-year-old pine floor in our home on Lake Tawakoni. The floor had considerable wear with kids, grandkids, and dogs playing in that room over the years.
With the 30 plus years experience Keith has, you can depend on him to give you the right advice to get the look you're after. The cost to do the job was very reasonable, he completed the work as scheduled and the floor is beautiful!
It was a pleasure to work with such friendly and professional people. I highly recommend Keith and his team."
Suzan in Quinlan, TX2018-11-12
★★★★★ - "Keith did an amazing job making my 20yr old slate and marble look brand new. Thank you for your excellent work and customer service."
Sheila Moncrief in Fort Worth, TX2018-06-25
★★★★★ - "We had extensive water damage to our home on Lake Fork. One call to Keith took care of everything. He is more than a flooring guy. Keith and his crew replaced drywall and installed beautiful baseboards, painted, installed white oak floors and ceiling and much more. His crew was professional, courteous and ready to get the job done right. Keith answered all of our questions and was always available to us. From now on we will call Keith first and we will recommend him to anyone who has home improvement or flooring issues."
Chris and Rhonda2018-05-17
★★★★★ - "Polished a concrete floor. Excellent work. They were prompt and courteous. Reasonable prices. I would recommend this contractor to other."
Anita C, Flooring Contractor in Fate, TX2017-12-18
★★★★★ - "Extremely Professional and would recommend to anyone needed floor work done.
I have used Keith Clay Floors for several years now completing my floors. He is very professional. I could not be happier with the work that has been completed. He goes that extra mile to make sure you are satisfied with work completed. I have recommended Keith clay floors to several friends who I am sure would write the same review."
Kevin W., Flooring Contractor in Fate, TX2017-12-18
★★★★★ - "I worked with Keith Clay Floors recently and it went very well. I hired them to refinish some wooden floors. It was a great value for the price. The floor looks outstanding, I'm very happy with the way it turned out. The technicians were reliable and trustworthy. They really do a great job."
Scott R., Wood Floor Refinishing in Grand Prairie, TX
★★★★★ - "I have enjoyed using Keith Clay Floors for the first time. I hired the worker to replace all the floors in my home, so it was a pretty big job. The staff is very easy to work with and incredibly helpful. Scheduling the work wasn't an issue, and I didn't have a problem with the pricing that they offered. I would definitely recommend them to other people based on the experience I had with them. I would definitely be in contact with them for any flooring needs that I may have in the future. I got the results that I needed from them this time around."
Suzanne S., Flooring Contractor in Melissa, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay Floors helped me replace a bunch of BAD bamboo flooring. I like to tell everybody this story because I had this bamboo flooring installed by a big box store and it was just terrible. They did the work last May and they did such a bad job that I finally had no choice but to tear it all out. So I hired Keith Clay to do the entire floor, every square inch in the place. I didn't want to take any chances with putting new materials down, so I had him do stained concrete. I am very happy with the results.
The price for the job was in line with others. Their employees are very pleasant and seemed to have a good work ethic. I felt that they sincerely wanted to do a good job. I was very satisfied. I had Keith's cell number so when I called or texted he was very responsive. I felt I was able to communicate with ease. He got the job done when I needed it and I was very pleased. I felt that he was trustworthy and honest. He really works at delivering a good product and service."
Ellen F., Flooring Contractor in Grand Prairie, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith sanded and stained our hardwood floors a few years ago...we got some water damage in June and had to pull carpet in two rooms. I called Keith and he was able to get me a quick bid on installing hardwoods. They had to match a stain from 2.5 years ago and he worked his tail off to make it right. It is tough to find honest & hardworking contractors, but Keith will earn your business the right way. I assume he has a lot of repeat customers."
Reagan J., Flooring Contractor in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay restored a brick floor we discovered under the carpet. He set the proper expectations for both results and the work schedule, including time to remove the painted surface, drying time for sealant, potential impact to painted baseboards, and challenges with the holes from removed tack strips. Keith is knowledgeable about the process, having worked in the industry for close to 40 years, and did the floor refinishing work himself. He even provided industrial fans to reduce odor in our home. Additionally, Keith contracted molding and transition woodwork to Will, a highly talented craftsman, who finished the room to perfection. Working with Keith Clay Floors was worth every penny spent. We're amazed by the results."
JenaCass, Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "This was my first time using Keith Clay Floors but I am very very happy with the work. I found them on the website, Nextdoor. I needed them to come to strip and reseal the hardwood, clean the tile grout, and polish the marble. It was a long process, around 10 days, but they made it as painless as possible and we were still able to live in our home during this time. Larry was the workman who came to my home and he was just wonderful. I would also say that the pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend them!"
Kelly O., Wood Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "I had a great experience with Keith Clay Floors. They came well recommended - I found them on the internet, but ironically a friend also used them and they did great work for them, so I think they have a good reputation here. I used their service to help restore and refinish a brick floor. It was my first time using them and I was more than pleased with the results. I can say that the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and they lived up to my expectations. I would say that the pricing is well worth the expense.
They have a lot of options when it comes to flooring and everything turned out quite well for me so I would recommend them to future customers and use them again in the future if necessary."
Jennifer C., Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith has done the wood floors at two of my properties. The first was a refinish, sanding, hand scrapping, staining and sealing. The second was a water damage claim where a lot of the wood flooring had to be removed and replaced, and then the whole main floor sanded, hand scraped, stained, and sealed. In both cases, Keith's crews were very professional and hard working. They were interested in making sure I was happy with the job and best of all finished on time. The final product in both cases was beyond my expectations. I will definitely call on Keith again and highly recommend him."
Kari H., Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "Thank you, Keith Clay Flooring for helping us repair after foundation work. Keith and his crews did a great job repairing the tile floors and laying carpet following foundation work. The workers were great and people that you would welcome in your home. We greatly appreciate the professional attitude and expertise they exhibited. We highly recommend Keith Clay Floors to anyone needing new flooring."
John B., Flooring Contractor in Mesquite, TX
★★★★★ - "I used Keith back in 2008, and I really liked his work. His prices were very reasonable. Over the years, I have hired Keith for a variety of services. He always arrives on time for each job, and he cleans up after the jobs are finished as well. Most recently, he polyurethaned my floors did some carpet removal and replaced some vinyl. The work he did on those projects was excellent. I am very happy with Keith!"
Linda A., Flooring Contractor in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith has done brick refinishing and hardwood floor installation/sand and finish for my company. My business was built 100% on referrals. I don't advertise in the media or have a fancy website to lure clients in. Therefore, the success of my contracting business relies completely on the end result. Keith is a sub-contractor that has been consistent in doing an excellent job, fair in his pricing and always reliable. He is an excellent communicator and goes the extra mile on every project, extremely valuable attributes in creating a positive end result for all of the projects he has worked on with me."
Janice P., Flooring Contractor in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "I was having some really old floors redone and I called in Keith Clay Floors. It was just a five star experience for a couple of reasons. First thing I have to say is they were just very good with following up. I really appreciated it. They were on time and professional throughout. When I made any changes or had any questions about what they were doing, they made sure that they understood what I was wanting and they did it that way. They were responsive and communicated very effectively. If I had any questions about what they were doing, they took the time so we were on the same page. I was just really satisfied with the results and the whole experience was very good. I would highly rec them to anybody!"
John C., Floor Refinishing in Wylie, TX
★★★★★ - "I've had Clay Floors do work on our house twice now. Both were good experiences. They most recently removed and addition of new tile for a sun room. The work turned out great."
Spencer M., Tile Floor Installation in Rowlett, TX2017-02-17
★★★★★ - "Our 50-year old cement tile floor was in decent shape but had lost its clean look. Keith and his crew did a thorough strip and wax job and the newly buffed floor looks like new. On time, on budget. Great job!"
Kristin M., Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "Keith and his team did excellent work on our brick floors. They were professional and respectful; showing up on time and keeping to schedule.. Keith came back to the house multiple times to answer questions and follow up on their service. The floor looks great. We will definitely use and recommend them in the future. Thanks Keith."
Kristen L., Natural Stone Flooring in Balch Springs, TX in Balch Springs, TX
★★★★★ - "Mr. Clay and his team provided expert advice, and we are pleased with the refinished cement floor that they installed."

Anonymous in Dallas, TX
★★★★★ - "I have already recommended Keith Clay Floors because the quality of the service was great and it was done when he said he would do it. This is not my first time using them, I keep on calling them because the prices are fantastic and they show up on time and they complete the work on time. I had my wood floors refinished twice and they did the tiles in my house so, they did a wonderful job on everything."
Jake K., Tile Floor Installation in Dallas, TX2016-10-19
★★★★★ - "This is the 3rd time that I have contracted with Keith Clay Floors. He and his team did a beautiful job with my hand scraped solid oak floors. They showed up when promised and they cleaned up after themselves. Keith Clay takes pride in his work. He will not put his name on inferior work. Plus, he is reasonable in his pricing. Once again, I recommend Keith Clay floors for your flooring needs."
Marsha P., Wood Floor Refinishing in Garland, TX2016-09-19
★★★★★ - "I had a good experience with Keith Clay Floors. They came to my home and stripped the old floor then refinished it and installed and sealed a brick floor in my den and my foyer. The floors look really good, I'm happy with the result. Their prices are reasonable. I would absolutely use Keith Clay Floors again in the future if the need arises and I will recommend them to friends looking for a type of service that Keith Clay Floors provide."
Kathy L., Floor Refinishing in Dallas, TX2016-09-19
★★★★★ - "This was my first time using Keith Clay Floors and I'm very happy with how the work came out. The worker who came in the day before the work to prep the floor really seemed to know what he was doing and was very kind and courteous while he was there. The company has great customer service and response time, on the day of the work they were running late because of another job, but they called me in good time to let me know that this would be happening and that they would be there an hour late, which a lot of companies wouldn't have done. Keith showed up that day and they quickly finished up the work on the floor, was one room they were working on and they got in and out quickly and did a great job with the work. In the time since the work was done I have not had any problems with the flooring that was installed, and the pricing was fair for the work they did. Overall I have had a good experience using Keith Clay Floors, I will definitely use them again if I find myself in need of more flooring work, and would gladly recommend them to any family or friends in need of similar services."
Ronnie L., Floor Installation in Dallas, TX2016-09-19

Jana B. in Rowlett, TX2016-08-19
★★★★★ - "We had a very pleasant experience with Keith Clay Floors. They re-finished our Mexican tile floors, which were in terrible shape, and they did a beautiful job. I liked how they were very nice and answered all of our questions. Mr. Clay isn't someone who just pawns out the job to his employees; he actually comes out and oversees the work. He's not just someone you never see again, and we appreciated that. This was our first time using Keith Clay Floors, and we would absolutely use them again."
Andrea R., Refinish Tile Floor in Dallas, TX2016-08-19
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay Floors was really professional. They put hardwood flooring in my home and it turned out excellent. They did things in a timely way and they cleaned up behind themselves. They never left a mess in my house. Everything was done on a professional scale. You could not get a better company to do a better job, and I highly recommend them."
Matthew P., Hardwood Floor Installation in Desoto, TX2016-08-19
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay Floors did what they said they would do, on time, and did a great job for the money. They redid a slate floor and installed new parquet flooring in the living room, dining room and hallway. They also did some repairs in the dining room. Their prices were pretty good; pretty competitive. They are a good company- I believe it!"
Kay C. in Dallas, TX2016-08-19
★★★★★ - "Keith Clay Floors seemed knowledgeable about the repairs for my Mexican tile. Once they started they did a really good job. I had a foundation problem, so they tore up some of them, stripped the floors, replaced and waxed them. I enjoyed working with Mr. Clay!"
Ken H., Tile Floor Installation in Irving, TX2016-07-20
★★★★★ - "The crew at Keith Clay Floors were very nice. They were very polite, responsive, and easy to work with. The process went fine. I had, had the floors in our home done a year ago, and they were not done so well. I hired Keith Clay Floors to redo them, and the floors were done beautifully. My husband is thrilled with them. My daughter who is very picky, thinks that they are fantastic! I would use them again."
Gordon B., Hard Wood Floor Installation in Dallas, TX2016-07-20
★★★★★ - "Keith and his crew came in on a Monday as promised and completed the project on a timely basis as promised. The follow through during the whole project was perfect because Keith kept me well informed. You couldn't have asked for better quality work than what Keith Clay Floors provided. I would recommend Keith Clays Floors for commercial and residential work. Thank you Keith and crew for the outstanding experience."
Ginny S. in Dallas, TX2016-07-20
★★★★★ - "Gorgeous Saltillo and Red Concrete floors. Keith did an amazing job restoring the 1960's Saltillo tiles and 1950's red concrete floor. They look better now than they did when new."
Angela L -Austin, TX2016-04-05

Susan A.2016-04-05
★★★★★ - "Keith came down to Austin and restored our saltillo tile floors. He and another gentlemen did a great job restoring the floors, which were in horrible shape when they arrived. Keith and Brenda were great to work with. They arrived on time, did the job for what they quoted, and did an excellent job."

Destination guide: Madrid, Spain
Madrid is the capital of Spain (Europe) and is in the middle of the Iberian Peninsula.
To get to know this city, you can visit El Retiro Park, the Temple of Debod, the Sabatini Gardens, the Capricho Park, the Main Square, the Royal Palace (a baroque castle made of stone and strategically located on the top of a cliff) and the Cibeles Fountain (a sculpture representing the Romen goddess Cibeles), as well as many other attractions.
Purchase your flights to Madrid and discover all of Spain's culture, history and traditions.
Content powered by Lonely Planet
Madrid - Practical Information
In Spain, all roads lead to Madrid's Plaza de la Puerta del Sol, kilometre zero, the physical and emotional heart of the city. Radiating out from this busy plaza are roads - Calle Mayor, Calle del Arenal, Calle de Preciados, Calle de la Montera, Carrera de San Jerónimo and Calle de Alcalá - that stretch deep into the city, as well as a host of metro lines and bus routes.
South of the Puerta del Sol is the oldest part of the city, with Plaza Mayor and Los Austrias to the southwest and the busy streets of the Huertas barrio to the southeast. Also to the south lie La Latina and Lavapiés.
North of Plaza de la Puerta del Sol is a modern shopping district and, beyond that, the east-west thoroughfare Gran Vía and the gay barrio Chueca, gritty Malasaña, then Chamberí and Argüelles. East of the Puerta del Sol, across the Paseo del Prado and Paseo de los Recoletos, lie El Retiro park and Salamanca.
Budget &Costs
First, the bad news. Not so long ago, Madrid was the second-cheapest capital city in Europe. But soaring house prices and a significant rise in prices across the board since Spain adopted the euro in 2002 have made Madrid not only the most expensive city in Spain, but the 22nd most expensive city in the world in which to live.
Despite such a gloomy outlook Madrid remains generally cheaper for travellers than many major world capitals. If you're coming from Paris, London or New York, you may find most things cheaper than back home. Unlike elsewhere in cities of Madrid's stature, it's also still possible to find semi-luxurious boutique hotels for around €100 a double in the city centre. At the budget end of the market, dormitory beds shouldn't cost more than €20 and nice hostales (hostels) with private bathroom and TV rarely cost more than €60, sometimes even less.
Eating out in a nice, midrange restaurant shouldn't cost much more than about €30 per person, although you can do it for a lot less, especially if you partake in the weekday lunchtime menú del día, a fixed-price, three-course set lunch that costs around €10. The menú del día is a great way to experience a more expensive restaurant without getting stung for à la carte prices. Transport (metro, city buses and even taxis) is still absurdly cheap and, if you time your visit well, it's possible to visit some museums at no cost, including the must-see Museo del Prado and the Centro de Arte Reina Sofía.
Sample Prices
1L petrol: €1.21
1L bottled water: €0.30-0.40
330ml bottle of Mahou beer: €2-2.50
Bocadillo (filled roll) €2.50-4
Souvenir T-shirt: €10-25

Spain is one of 25 member countries of the Schengen Convention, under which 22 EU countries (all but Bulgaria, Cyprus, Ireland, Romania and the UK) plus Iceland, Norway and Switzerland have abolished checks at common borders. Cyprus has signed the Schengen agreement, but full membership has been postponed until at least late 2010.
The visa situation for entering Spain is as follows:
- Citizens or residents of EU & Schengen countries No visa required.
- Citizens or residents of Australia, Canada, Israel, Japan, NZ and the USA No visa required for tourist visits of up to 90 days.
- Other countries Check with a Spanish embassy or consulate.
- To work or study in Spain a special visa may be required – contact a Spanish embassy or consulate before travel.
Extensions & ResidenceSchengen visas cannot be extended. You can apply for no more than two visas in any 12-month period and they are not renewable once in Spain. Nationals of EU countries, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland can enter and leave Spain at will and don't need to apply for a tarjeta de residencia (residence card), although they are supposed to apply for residence papers.
People of other nationalities who want to stay in Spain longer than 90 days have to get a residence card, and for them it can be a drawn-out process, starting with an appropriate visa issued by a Spanish consulate in their country of residence. Start the process well in advance.
Weights & Measures
Duty-free allowances for travellers entering Spain from outside the EU include 2L of wine (or 1L of wine and 1L of spirits), and 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g of tobacco.
There are no duty-free allowances for travel between EU countries but equally no restrictions on the import of duty-paid items into Spain from other EU countries for personal use. You can buy VAT-free articles at airport shops when travelling between EU countries.
Business Hour
- Banks: 8.30am-2pm Mon-Fri; some also open 4-7pm Thu and 9am-1pm Sat
- Central Post Offices: 8.30am-9.30pm Mon-Fri, 8.30am-2pm Sat
- Nightclubs: midnight or 1am to 5am or 6am
- Restaurants: lunch: 1-4pm, dinner: 8.30pm-midnight or later
- Shops: 10am-2pm & 4.30-7.30pm or 5-8pm; big supermarkets and department stores generally open 10am-10pm Mon-Sat
The ubiquitous blue payphones are easy to use for international and domestic calls. They accept coins, phonecards (tarjetas telefónicas) issued by the national phone company Telefónica and, in some cases, various credit cards. Phonecards come in €6 and €12 denominations and, like postage stamps, are sold at post offices and tobacconists.
Mobile Phones
Spaniards adore teléfonos móviles (mobile or cell phones), and shops on every high street sell phones with prepaid cards. The most basic models of mobile phones start from around €80 (if you're buying a prepaid SIM card - they are often free for residents taking out a contract).
Spain uses GSM 900/1800, which is compatible with the rest of Europe and Australia but not with the North American GSM 1900 or the system used in Japan. From those countries, you will need to travel with a tri-band or quadric-band phone.
You can rent a mobile phone by calling the Madrid-based Cellphone Rental (www.onspanishtime.com/web). It will deliver the phone to a hotel or apartment anywhere in Spain.
Phone Codes
Dial the international access code ([tel] 00 in most countries), followed by the code for Spain ([tel] 34) and the full number (including the code, 91, which is an integral part of the number). For example to call the number [tel] 91 455 67 83 in Madrid, you need to dial the international access code followed by [tel] 34 91 455 67 83.
The access code for international calls from Spain is [tel] 00. To make an international call, dial the access code, wait for a new dialling tone, then dial the country code, area code and number you want.
International collect calls are simple. Dial 99 00 followed by the code for the country you're calling:
Australia [tel] 99 00 61
Canada [tel] 99 00 15
France [tel] 99 00 33
Germany [tel] 99 00 49
Ireland [tel] 99 03 53
Israel [tel] 99 09 72
New Zealand [tel] 99 00 64
UK for BT [tel] 99 00 44
USA for AT&T [tel] 99 00 11, for Sprint and various others [tel] 99 00 13
You'll get straight through to an operator in the country you're calling. The same numbers can be used with direct-dial calling cards.
If for some reason the above information doesn't work for you, in most places you can get an English-speaking Spanish international operator by dialling [tel] 1008 (for calls within Europe) or [tel] 1005 (rest of the world).
For international directory inquiries dial [tel] 11825. Be warned: a call to this number costs €2!
Dial [tel] 1009 to speak to a domestic operator, including for a domestic reverse-charge (collect) call (llamada por cobro revertido). For national directory inquiries dial [tel] 11818.
Mobile phone numbers start with 6. Numbers starting with 900 are national toll-free numbers, while those starting 901 to 905 come with varying conditions. A common one is 902, which is a national standard rate number. In a similar category are numbers starting with 803, 806 and 807.
Cut-rate prepaid phonecards can be good value for international calls. They can be bought from estancos (tobacconists) and newsstands in the main cities and tourist resorts. If possible, try to compare rates because some are better than others. Locutorios (private call centres) that specialise in cut-rate overseas calls have popped up all over the place in the centre of bigger cities. Again, compare rates - as a rule the phonecards are better value and generally more convenient.

so got any opinions on pinups? really UBERGEEK has been dominated by a male cast far too long. I wanted to add female characters in much earlier but never had much of a chance. Now that they're there I hope you guys like them. okay so the pinups aren't much in the way for actual pinning up but they are a nice look at the characters. if this week is popular I'll do a second pinup week a few months from now with bigger more detailed pictures.
feedback anyone?

|Magic is Might monument
|Object information
Monument of the Ministry of Magic
- "A gigantic statue of black stone dominated the scene. It was rather frightening, this vast sculpture of a witch and wizard sitting on ornately carved thrones...Engraved in foot-high letters at the base of the statue were the words MAGIC IS MIGHT...Harry looked more closely and realised that what he had thought were decoratively carved thrones were actually mounds of carved humans: hundreds and hundreds of naked bodies, men, women, and children, all with rather stupid, ugly faces, twisted and pressed together to support the weight of the handsomely robed wizards."
- —Description[src]
The Magic is Might monument was a black stone statue created after the Death Eaters took over the Ministry of Magic on 1 August, 1997. It replaced the Fountain of Magical Brethren and thus was located in the Atrium of the Ministry of Magic Headquarters. The "Magic is Might" monument depicts a witch and a wizard sitting on carved thrones made of the naked bodies of Muggles twisted and pressed together to support the thrones of the witch and wizard, and each Muggle with an ugly and stupid face.
The phrase "Magic is Might" is inscribed at the bottom of the statue, thus, the statue became a symbol of the wizarding supremacy ideals of the new regime and the detestation of Muggles, which were considered inferior. Thus, the Muggles in the statue are depicting below the wizards in a degrading and humiliating fashion.
Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley saw the statue when they infiltrated the Ministry on 2 September, 1997, and found the message of the statue horrible.[1]
It was presumably replaced by another statue after Lord Voldemort's defeat in May 1998 and the subsequent reform of the Ministry spearheaded by the new Minister, Kingsley Shacklebolt.
Behind the scenesEdit
- In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, the Magic is Might Monument differs a little from its book description. In the film, Muggles hold a marble column with the "Magic is Might" inscription and the Ministry of Magic logo, and atop the column stand a large wizard and a witch. The Fountain of Magical Brethren is not completely removed from the Atrium, as the golden statue of the wizard is still present on its plinth.
- The depiction of the monument in the film adaption bears a close resemblance to the Soviet monumental art, particulary the sculpture of Worker and Kolkhoz Woman.
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the Muggles are clothed, the wizard and witch standing rather than seated, and the statue white rather than black.

Location: Pavilion
From: Thursdays & Fridays, 6:00-7:30am
The Breakfast Program, formerly known as the Caring Committee Feeding Program, is among Central Synagogue's longest ongoing social justice projects. Originally conceived and implemented by longtime congregant Nat Shapiro in 1983, the Breakfast Program was started in response to Mayor Koch's outcry for New York City's religious institutions to respond to an exploding homeless and hungry problem. Today, many clients of the Breakfast Program are working poor who greatly appreciate and regularly rely on the warm, nutritious start to their day. Volunteers assemble every Thursday and Friday morning in Lese Lobby (Community House) to prepare and serve the most important meal of the day. A bag lunch is also handed out to clients. These lunches are prepared the prior evening as part of Central Synagogue's Sandwich Making Program. Volunteers must be in the 6th grade or older; those under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Location: Community House
From: Thursdays, 10:30am-12:30pm
If you are interested in learning more, please email Carolyn Roesler at firstname.lastname@example.com or (212) 838-5122 Ext. 3043 and she'll put you in touch with the program's lay leaders. English in Action is not currently accepting new volunteers, but they are always happy to talk to people about the program and add to their list of prospective volunteers.
Your tax-deductible contribution to our Annual Yom Kippur Appeal will provide for Central's exceptional educational, community, and spiritual programs and help enrich the Jewish experience of our members and the community-at-large.

Muffin BernsteinSatsuma Mandala 2011
Archival photographic print
7" x 5"
Shipping cost: $5.00
Artist + Muffin BernsteinFollow this artist
I was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. My latest series of medallions are a combination of isolated moments as well as newly collaged landscapes. With this work, I want to highlight the importance of nature and it's beauty. Nature's cycle of death and renewal is a continual source of inspiration for me. It is remarkable what I have seen on my daily nature walks with my husband and dogs. Though I have experienced a few setbacks in my journey as an artist, including health complications and an apartment fire destroying my catalog work, nature has given me the will and inspiration to continue creating.
Within my photographic collages, I strive to convey the transformative and healing power of nature, as well as themes of rebirth and reawakening. Other driving forces behind my art consist of the rising sea level and the dangers presented by coastal erosion. I use my photographs of nature in hopes of visually preserving an ecosystem that is likely to one day vanish. I hope that the beauty I have captured inspires others to hold nature in reverence. I believe that it is our responsibility to do something, big or small, to contribute to the health of our ecosystem, locally. Small acts like planting more milkweed for monarch butterflies and wildflowers for bees, make all the difference.

Huskers beat Purdue
Shavon Shields scored 19 points, Brandon Ubel added 16 points and eight rebounds and Nebraska beat Purdue 57-55 Thursday in the first round of the Big Ten tournament.
The Cornhuskers (15-17) hung on after Purdue's Terone Johnson missed two shots in the closing seconds and will meet No. 10 Ohio State in the quarterfinals.
They started the second half on a 9-0 run to turn a two-point lead into a 39-28 advantage and withstood a late push by the Boilermakers (15-17) to come away with a surprising victory.
It was 54-53 after Purdue's D.J. Byrd made a 3-pointer with 40 seconds left. Nebraska's Ray Gallegos then made the first free throw and missed the second, but the Cornhuskers recovered the ball.
Ubel then hit the second foul shot after missing the first to make it 56-53 with 28.6 seconds left. Byrd put back a missed 3 by Ronnie Johnson to pull Purdue within one with 13 seconds left.
Gallegos then made 1 of 2 free throws to make it a two-point game. Purdue had one last chance but Johnson missed two shots in the lane and Gallegos grabbed the rebound to secure the win.

Borderlands 'Mad Moxxi' DLC Interview: Gearbox Talks Bank, Patch Restrictions and More
With the second downloadable add-on for Borderlands due out on Xbox 360 tomorrow (an
And while Matthew wasn't able to answer all our questions--the matchmaking team had already taken off for the holiday, so they couldn't tell us if there's an option for online players to seek out other DLC owners--he was able to shed some light on other aspects, including the new areas, why there aren't new foes in Riot Mode's ever-increasing enemy waves, the reasons behind the later PlayStation 3 and PC releases, and just why Gearbox is charging for more in-game storage.
Shack: The first downloadable add-on, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, was accessible pretty early in the game. How and when do we get to Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot?
Matthew Armstrong: The Lobby area is accessible almost immediately, so you can get to the new shops and start using the bank really early on. You can battle in the arena starting around level 10, but generally we recommend you wait until you have a Class Mod to tackle it (you get your first class mod around level 18). It's pretty challenging. Level 50 characters will also particularly enjoy the challenge.
Shack: Some over and under-leveled players were upset that Zombie Island's enemies and quest levels were based off one's story progress, not character level. Does Max Moxxi use the same approach?
Matthew Armstrong: Moxxi likes to keep things challenging, so the enemies will balance out according to the player level.
Shack: How do the three new Riot Mode areas differ from one another?
Matthew Armstrong: The designers created three distinct combat areas which each require different tactics and gameplay.
Hellburbia is all about street fighting. It's a small neighborhood of buildings you fight around or on top of with lots of chokepoints and tactical options. The combat is very assault/defend themed as the enemies spawn at various buildings and you have to move in to take them out.
The Angelic Ruins was based upon the ending sections of our game - the pretty snowy areas with alien ruins. Many of our players told us they wanted to spend more time there. The Ruins are hilly and open. You can't see very far, but there are almost no chokepoints. You have to keep moving to stay alive there.
The Gully is a large outdoor arena in a large canyon. It winds from the bottom, which is a dense bandit camp, up and around past the Crimson Lance region to the top where there are some premium sniping locations. There's also a teleporter that takes you from the high ground to the bottom of the gully and back again, but the badguys know how to use it too!
Shack: Judging from the screenshots, it appears that Riot Mode's "onslaught of Pandora's baddest enemies" includes some returning bosses. Are there any new enemies as well?
Matthew Armstrong: Moxxi is doing some wild and unexpected things with her Maxims which change the nature of the game constantly. Unfamiliar enemies combined with the new rules tended to frustrate players during playtesting because they couldn't make the tactical decisions and they didn't feel as if their fate was in their own hands. We want the Underdome to be challenging, not frustrating, so you will be fighting familiar enemies with in decidedly unfamiliar ways.
Shack: Beyond the new Riot Mode, can you describe some of the new quests and areas in Mad Moxxi?
Matthew Armstrong: Outside the Underdome is a cool lobby area with a bank for storing your stuff and a couple of nice shops. Beyond that we fully focused all out attention on the Underdome, making it as solid and entertaining an experience as possible.
Shack: Can you elaborate on the new bank feature? Is it just weapon storage, or all items? How much extra capacity does this allow players? Will bank storage access be available throughout all of Pandora, or only in the new Mad Moxxi areas?Matthew Armstrong: The bank requires space. Marcus owns it, and it resides just outside the Underdome in a colorful lobby area. The lobby is small, and the bank is very close to the fast travel station and a full suite of shops, so players can get to the bank quickly and easily from anywhere in the game and stow stuff, sell stuff, or shop for new stuff. We created this feature as a direct response to what gamers were asking for.
Shack: Why add the new bank feature in a premium-priced downloadable add-on instead of a free patch?
Matthew Armstrong: Once again, it requires space. It has to exist somewhere, and there is no easy way for us to add new space to a completed game. There are some boring technical reasons but it all boils down to restrictions on space allowed for the free title updates that we can distribute to the platforms. Your audience has surely heard developers bemoan that challenge before.
Shack: Does Mad Moxxi raise the game's level cap? If not, why, and is that something that's coming in a future download?
Matthew Armstrong: Early on, we said we would dedicate our DLC to giving the players what they want. We have many loyal fans who have played the game for a long time asking us for a place to really challenge themselves and show what they can REALLY do. Riot mode is not about growth! It's about proving yourself. It's about over the top co-operative combat and seeing if you're as tough as you think you are.
We have two tiers of tournament. The small tournament is five waves and gives a real nice prize at the end. It's a challenge, but it's designed to be something that anyone can tackle with a couple of friends. Each of the three coliseums takes about 2 hours in the small one, so there are six hours of repeatable gameplay in that one. But for the hardcore player, we have the BIG Tournament, which takes you through 20 increasingly difficult rounds, with new rules added, tougher enemies, and more enemies as the rounds progress. It's an epic challenge where you have to team up with real good players and fight as a team to emerge victorious.
Some examples of these rules are things like low gravity mode or vampire mode or headshots only mode etc. As these overlap it gets to be quite intense.
Now with that being said, we do recognize that some people just want an avenue to build their character just a little more. So what we did is figured out a way to maintain compatibility across all players and also allow people who got Mad Moxxi to gain additional skill points. It's in there.
Shack: Zombie Island hit PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 simultaneously, but Mad Moxxi is arriving on PlayStation 3 a week later than Xbox 360. Why the delay? And is there any clue as to when Mad Moxxi will be available on PC?
Matthew Armstrong: We try to get everything out to our fans as quickly as possible. Development, testing, certification, and a multitude of other factors all contribute to defining the release of DLC or games on various consoles. When we find that the release/ship dates for different consoles do not fall on the same date, we have to ask ourselves whether it's better to delay some so they all ship at the same time or to allow them to ship when they are ready, regardless of the other versions.
Shack: Is there more Borderlands downloadable content in the works?
Matthew Armstrong: Our customers called out for more story and more humor and zombies. So we made The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned. Our customers called out for a place to test their skills and have a real co-op challenge. They asked for a bank to store their stuff. So we made Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot.
We would love to continue the trend. If our customers continue to buy and play the DLC we make, then we know we are going in the right direction, and we can afford to take the time and money to deliver on the other things players are asking for.
Priced at $10 / 800 Microsoft Points, the downloadable Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot add-on will be available to Borderlands Xbox 360 owners on Tuesday, December 29, followed by a PlayStation 3 release on Thursday, January 7.
It's also coming to the PC, though an exact timeframe has yet to be announced.

Accessibility Award - Past Winners
2011 Award
The Steve Cutway Accessibility Award was awarded to Julie Harmgardt, Chair of Queen's InvisAbilities, Leela Viswanathan, Assistant Professor in Urban and Regional Planning and Jeanette Parsons, Director, Office of the AVP and Dean of Graduate Studies.
Jeannette is passionate about accessibility and had a stellar track record in advancing accessibility concerns at Queen's as the past Accessibility Coordinator. Although Jeanette has left this role she continues to be a passionate advocate for accessibility on campus, and in broader society, and continues to be involved with disability research at Queen's. Jeanette's subsequent commitment to the field even after she has moved on to another position at Queen's shows that she was not only a competent professional but someone who cares deeply about this subject on a personal level.
Julie, recognizing a void in the realm of disability, founded and continues to Chair Queen's InvisAbilities, a club she started in 2009 that focuses on breaking down the barriers of misconceptions and stereotypes around hidden or non-visible disabilities.
Leela was nominated by several of her students. It is apparent that her efforts at creating an accessible learning environment has not gone unnoticed. One student writes, "Leela shows genuine and sincere interest in not just the academic well-being of her students, but also their mental state. A simple, "Tell me how you are doing today", and meaning it, can go a long way in relieving students with disabilities, anxieties, and feelings of isolation in their academic communities."

Is Rub and Tug Massage Safe?
Whether you are a massage therapist or simply want to give your lover the kind of massage that they have always wanted, rub and tug massage is the best choice. As long as you know the right technique, this type of massage is safe and very effective.
To rub and tug massage, you start by lying down on your back. Place your feet flat on the floor, and spread your legs apart. Use the palm of your hand to begin massaging your partner's buttocks.
You can continue to stroke him using gentle circular motions. If you are lucky, you will find that your partner likes to get turned on while the massage is taking place. He may squirm slightly and make noises when you are using the correct technique.
If he does not respond to your strokes, you can try using a firmer grip. This will make sure that the muscles in his back and pelvic area are properly warmed up. When you have him in a good state of arousal, you can apply pressure to his spine with your other hand.
The pressure should be firm but gentle, as you gently stimulate his penis. You can give him a light massage to relieve his tension, but you should not neglect his nipples. In order to stimulate his nipples, rub them with your finger and thumb.
At this point, you will find that your lover will be quite aroused. The pressure and movement should be at a moderate level, but continue to be gentle at all times. If your partner gets too excited, you can feel the tickling sensation that comes from the top of his head. You should always stop your massage if your partner becomes too excited.
Once you have started the massage, you should continue it until your partner has completely relaxed. Once your partner has completely relaxed, the rubbing and stroking will intensify. Your partner will feel very comfortable and relax, and he will also feel closer to you.
When you feel like you are about to lose your concentration, you should return to the beginning of the process. Keep your partner in a very erotic state, and continue the massage until your partner has fully relaxed. Then, you should continue the stroking and rubbing until you feel your orgasm coming on.
One thing that you should never do when you are giving a massage to a partner is using the heel of your hand. If you do, you will almost certainly cause your partner to feel pleasure in an area that he or she does not like. Be very careful about this, and only use your fingers when your partner requests it.
Rub and tug massage has been used for centuries. The technique was developed by the ancient Chinese and it was popular during the Victorian era, although the technique was not widely practiced in most Western countries until recently.
If you are able to get a female masseuse, you should try to ask her to perform the rub and tug massage on you. This way, you can both enjoy the experience. You will find that your partner will be much more likely to respond if you have a female masseuse present, so if you are able to afford it, then please go to a female masseuse.
Enjoying a massage, and helping to make your sexual experience as pleasurable as possible, is one of the best things that you can do for your partner. To rub and tug massage is one of the best ways to do this.

The cozy Barley Mill is festooned with colorful artwork and artifacts everywhere you look, including some great Grateful Dead memorabilia. Or test your skill on one of our pinball machines.

George Magnanimous IPA Pelican Katch Kolsch pFriem Pilsner Sun River Rippin NW Ale Vanguard TNT IPA The Barley Mill is a touchstone for McMenamins because of its "first" status among our current pubs. However, in history's eye, it's one in a succession of notable watering holes to roost at the corner of Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard and 17th Avenue. The place is flush with great characters and stories dating back to 1934, when Billy Hahn opened the original beer parlor on this spot. It was a year after Prohibition ended and Portlanders were demonstrating a definite thirst for frosty mugs of brew. Hahn called his joint The Scuttlebutt, an old seafaring term for a drinking fountain. "Red" Dorrigan, a Scuttlebutt bartender in the 1950s, epitomized the Scuttlebutt's atmosphere in those early years. A big, tough Irishman, "Red" had auburn hair and a scarlet face, which, one patron remarked, "he didn't get from falling into a strawberry patch." By the middle 1970s, the 'Butt was ending its 30-year run with the time-honored practice of exotic dancers: They danced... and stripped right on the bar. In 1977, new owners reinvented the place with a little more attitude, more surliness, and a new name — Fat Little Rooster. Fifty-five cent Rainiers and pool were definite attractions for the place, but the Rooster's bread and butter was music — loud music! While much of the rest of city's clubs and taverns were featuring glitter and synthesizers, the Rooster strutted gut-bucket blues and other earthy, roots-based music. Some of the Northwest's best bands took their turn tearing the roof off the place, including the Robert Cray Band, Paul deLay's Brown Sugar, Steve Bradley's Sleazy Pieces, the Holy Modal Rounders, and the fabulous Clamtones. After six years of crowing, the Fat Little Rooster flew the coop and area residents took a simultaneous sigh of relief. In 1983, Mike and Brian McMenamin came and scoured the place inside and out and gave the 50-year-old haunt new life as the decidedly more family-oriented Barley Mill Pub. The place was decked out with exuberant neon lights and imaginative murals painted by Norm Forsberg and Joe Cotter. Also, the pub's namesake, a very heavy barley mill (a kitty litter grinder originally) was set up with great effort in the front bay. It's a prized relic rescued from Oregon's first microbrewery, the Cartwright Brewery (1979-1982). Word of mouth brought more people and fun to the place, making the Barley Mill, with its laid-back feel, a comfortable gathering spot for folks of all walks and ages. In particular, the pub's rousing summer anniversary party, with its performers, contests, and specially crafted anniversary ale, continues to be a day of family fun and revelry.

Miscarriage refers to the premature end of a pregnancy before the developing baby is able to survive outside the uterus. Miscarriage can occur during the first or second trimester, before 20 weeks. Most occur in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. They often are unexpected and isolated events. About 15%-20% of recognized pregnancies end this way.
|Fetus in First Trimester
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Miscarriages often occur for the following reasons:
- Chromosomal abnormalities (common cause)
- Abnormalities in the uterine tract, such as fibroids
- Hormonal problems, such as not having enough hormone (progesterone) needed to support pregnancy
- Factors related to the immune system, such as blood-clotting problems or rejection of the fetus
- Trauma
In some cases, the cause of miscarriage is unknown.
Risk Factors
Miscarriages are more common in women 35 years and older. Other factors that may increase your chance of having a miscarriage include:
- Infection
- Smoking , drinking alcohol , or using drugs during pregnancy
- Certain medications
- Exposure to certain environmental toxins
- Autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus
- High-dose radiation therapy on the ovaries, uterus, or the pituitary gland during treatment of childhood cancers
Miscarriage may cause:
- Vaginal bleeding
- Pink or brown discharge
- Cramping
- Passing the fetus, placenta, and surrounding membranes through the vagina
- Fever
Recurrent Miscarriage
While miscarriage usually is a one-time occurrence, up to 1 in 20 couples experience 2 miscarriages in a row, and 1 in 100 have 3 or more. In some cases, these couples have an underlying problem. Couples who have experienced 2 or more miscarriages should have a complete medical evaluation to learn the cause and how they can prevent another one from occurring.
Cause of repeat miscarriages may include:
- Chromosome problem in one member of the couple
- Uterine abnormalities
- Hormone problems
- Immune system problems
- Unknown causes
You will be asked about your symptoms, the length of your pregnancy, and when you first noticed a change in your condition. Physical and pelvic exams.
Prior to miscarriage, tests may include:
- Ultrasound —to assess the health of the fetus
- Blood tests—to check the exact amount of the hormone (called human chorionic gonadotropin or hCG) important to sustain an early pregnancy
After miscarriage, tests may include:
- Examination of the tissue that has passed through the vagina
- Blood tests—to check for a chromosomal error in the man or the woman or to check hormone and antibody levels
Imaging tests may be used to evaluate the uterus and surrounding structures. These may include:
- Ultrasound
- Hysteroscopy —to examine the inside of the uterus
Immediate care usually involves observation only, especially in early or first trimester miscarriages. Medication may be indicated in the event of heavy bleeding or cramping.
A dilation and evacuation (D&E) may be needed if uterine contents are not spontaneously passed through the vagina. During a D&E, the doctor dilates the cervix, inserts a tool into the uterus, and suctions out remaining material.
Support Services
A counselor or support group may be needed to help deal with the emotions surrounding a miscarriage.
Before you start to plan your next pregnancy consider the following regarding your health:
- Is your diet ready to support another pregnancy?
- Are there habits you should change prior to another pregnancy?
- What medications are you taking and will they affect a pregnancy?
- How is your health?
- Are there issues you should resolve before trying another pregnancy?
If a specific cause of the miscarriage was found, certain treatments may help prevent future miscarriages. Treatments may include:
Medications such as:
- Antibiotics to treat related infections
- Hormone (progesterone) supplements
- Aspirin and other medications to treat blood-clotting problems
Surgery for uterine problems such as:
- Uterine fibroids
- Septate uterus (tissue in the center of the uterus)
- Incompetent (weakened) cervix
