About AVMs
Symptoms and Bleeding
Diagnosis and Treatment
What is a brain AVM?
Normally, arteries carry blood containing oxygen from the heart to the brain, and veins carry blood with less oxygen away from the brain and back to the heart. When an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) occurs, a tangle of blood vessels in the brain or on its surface bypasses normal brain tissue and directly diverts blood from the arteries to the veins.
How common are brain AVMs?
Brain AVMs occur in less than 1 percent of the general population. It's estimated that about one in 2,000–5,000 people may have an AVM. AVMs are more common in males than in females.
Why do brain AVMs occur?
We don't know why AVMs occur. Brain AVMs are usually congenital, meaning someone is born with one. But they're usually not hereditary. People probably don't inherit an AVM from their parents, and they probably won't pass one on to their children.
Where do brain AVMs occur?
Brain AVMs can occur anywhere within the brain or on its covering. This includes the four major lobes of the front part of the brain (frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital), the back part of the brain (cerebellum), the brainstem, or the ventricles (deep spaces within the brain that produce and circulate the cerebrospinal fluid).
Do brain AVMs change or grow?
Most AVMs don't grow or change much, although the vessels involved may dilate (widen). Some AVMs may shrink due to clots in part of the AVM. Some may enlarge to redirect blood in adjacent vessels toward an AVM.
What are the symptoms of a brain AVM?
Symptoms may vary depending on where the AVM is located:
- More than 50 percent of patients with an AVM have an intracranial hemorrhage.
- Among AVM patients, 20 percent to 25 percent have focal or generalized seizures.
- Patients may have localized pain in the head due to increased blood flow around an AVM.
- Fifteen percent may have difficulty with movement, speech and vision.
What causes brain AVMs to bleed?
A brain AVM contains abnormal and, therefore, "weakened" blood vessels that direct blood away from normal brain tissue. These abnormal and weak blood vessels dilate over time. Eventually they may burst from the high pressure of blood flow from the arteries, causing bleeding into the brain.
What are the chances of a brain AVM bleeding?
The chance of a brain AVM bleeding is 1 percent to 3 percent per year. Over 15 years, the total chance of an AVM bleeding into the brain — causing brain damage and stroke — is 25 percent.
Does one bleed increase the chance of a second bleed?
The risk of recurrent intracranial bleeding is slightly higher for a short time after the first bleed. In two studies, the risk during the first year after initial bleeding was 6 percent and then dropped to the baseline rate. In another study, the risk of recurrence during the first year was 17.9 percent. The risk of recurrent bleeding may be even higher in the first year after the second bleed and has been reported to be 25 percent during that year. People who are between 11 to 35 years old and who have an AVM are at a slightly higher risk of bleeding.
What can happen if a brain AVM causes a bleed?
The risk of death related to each bleed is 10 percent to 15 percent. The chance of permanent brain damage is 20 percent to 30 percent. Each time blood leaks into the brain, normal brain tissue is damaged. This results in loss of normal function, which may be temporary or permanent. Some possible symptoms include arm or leg weakness/paralysis, or difficulty with speech, vision or memory. The amount of brain damage depends on how much blood has leaked from the AVM.
What functions does an AVM affect?
The functions of the lobes of the brain is very complicated as all lobes have some overlapping functions so that there is communication between them in order for all processes to integrate information. At a basic level, the main functions of the brain lobes are below:
- The frontal lobe functions to process motor (movements), and frontal eye fields, regulates personality and articulation (and other aspects) of speech.
- The parietal lobe functions to process sensory information, such as interpretation of pain and temperature, light touch, vibration and more.
- The temporal lobe functions to process things related to hearing, memory, learning and receptive speech.
- The occipital lobe functions to process things related to vision.
Are there different types of brain AVMs?
All blood vessel malformations involving the brain and its surrounding structures are commonly referred to as AVMs. But several types exist:
- True arteriovenous malformation (AVM). This is the most common brain vascular malformation. It consists of a tangle of abnormal vessels connecting arteries and veins with no normal intervening brain tissue.
- Occult or cryptic AVM or cavernous malformations. This is a vascular malformation in the brain that doesn't actively divert large amounts of blood. It may bleed and often produce seizures.
- Venous malformation. This is an abnormality only of the veins. The veins are either enlarged or appear in abnormal locations within the brain.
- Hemangioma. These are abnormal blood vessel structures usually found at the surface of the brain and on the skin or facial structures. These represent large and abnormal pockets of blood within normal tissue planes of the body.
- Dural fistula. The covering of the brain is called the "dura mater." An abnormal connection between blood vessels that involve only this covering is called a dural fistula. Dural fistulas can occur in any part of the brain covering. Three kinds of dural fistulas are:
- Dural carotid cavernous sinus fistula. These occur behind the eye and usually cause symptoms because they divert too much blood toward the eye. Patients have eye swelling, decreased vision, redness and congestion of the eye. They often can hear a "swishing" noise.
- Transverse-Sigmoid sinus dural fistula. These occur behind the ear. Patients usually complain of hearing a continuous noise (bruit) that occurs with each heartbeat, local pain behind the ear, headaches and neck pain.
- Sagittal sinus and scalp dural fistula. These occur toward the top of the head. Patients complain of noise (bruit), headaches, and pain near the top of the head; they may have prominent blood vessels on the scalp and above the ear.
What is the best treatment for a dural fistula?
The best treatment is usually endovascular surgical blocking of the abnormal connections that have caused the fistula. This involves guiding small tubes (catheters) inside the blood vessel with X-ray guidance and blocking off the abnormal connections. Depending on the location and size, many of these can be treated and cured by these less invasive endovascular techniques.
How are AVMs diagnosed?
Most AVMs are detected with either a computed tomography (CT) brain scan or a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan. These tests are very good at detecting brain AVMs. They also provide information about the location and size of the AVM and whether it may have bled. A doctor may also perform a cerebral angiogram. This test involves inserting a catheter (small tube) through an artery in the leg (groin). Then it's guided into each of the vessels in the neck going to the brain, and a contrast material (dye) is injected and pictures are taken of all the blood vessels in the brain. For any type of treatment involving an AVM, an angiogram may be needed to better identify the type of AVM.
What factors influence whether an AVM should be treated?
In general, an AVM may be considered for treatment if it has bled, if it's in an area of the brain that can be easily treated and if it's not too large.
What is the best treatment for an AVM?
It depends on what type it is, the symptoms it may be causing and its location and size.
What different types of treatment are available?
- Medical therapy. If there are no symptoms or almost none, or if an AVM is in an area of the brain that can't be easily treated, conservative medical management may be indicated. If possible, a person with an AVM should avoid any activities that may excessively elevate blood pressure, such as heavy lifting or straining, and avoid blood thinners like warfarin. A person with an AVM should have regular checkups with a neurologist or neurosurgeon.
- Surgery. If an AVM has bled and/or is in an area that can be easily operated upon, then surgical removal may be recommended. The patient is put to sleep with anesthesia, a portion of the skull is removed, and the AVM is surgically removed. When the AVM is completely taken out, the possibility of any further bleeding should be eliminated.
- Stereotactic radiosurgery. An AVM that's not too large, but is in an area that's difficult to reach by regular surgery, may be treated with stereotactic radiosurgery. In this procedure, a cerebral angiogram is done to localize the AVM. Focused-beam high energy sources are then concentrated on the brain AVM to produce direct damage to the vessels that will cause a scar and allow the AVM to "clot off."
- Interventional neuroradiology/endovascular neurosurgery. It may be possible to treat part or all of the AVM by placing a catheter (small tube) inside the blood vessels that supply the AVM and blocking off the abnormal blood vessels with various materials. These include liquid tissue adhesives (glues), micro coils, particles and other materials used to stop blood flowing to the AVM. The best treatment depends on the symptoms the patient is having, what type of AVM is present and the AVM's size and location.
What doctors specialize in treating brain AVMs?
- Vascular neurosurgeons specialize in surgically removing brain AVMs.
- Radiation therapists/neurosurgeons specialize in the stereotactic radiosurgery treatment of brain AVMs.
- Interventional neuroradiologists/endovascular neurosurgeons specialize in the endovascular therapy of brain AVMs.
- Stroke neurologists specialize in the medical management of brain AVMs.
Neuroradiologists specialize in the diagnosis and imaging of the head, neck, brain and spinal cord. They perform and interpret the CT, MRI, and cerebral angiograms necessary for evaluation, management and treatment. Each of these specialists has had advanced training and is highly skilled at treating complex brain vascular malformations.

You math guys! My problem is once I have solved for X, I don't have a container with the gradients needed!
Just kidding - but 4.266 ounces is just going to have to be a heavy 4.25 ounces!
You can measure water by weight too. 4.26 oz (weight) = 4.26 oz (volume)
Quote from: mtnrockhopper on July 25, 2013, 08:37:29 PMYou can measure water by weight too. 4.26 oz (weight) = 4.26 oz (volume)Only at 4°C, and only if we're talking about avoirdupois fluid ounces. At 20°C one US customary fluid ounce of water has a mass of 1.041 avoirdupois ounces.Anyway, the problem with solutions is that mass/volume don't usually scale linearly with concentration. If it's important to get a precise result, you'll need to look up a table for that particular solute/solvent.

From The Star
By Royce Cheah
PETALING JAYA: At least 4,749 workers, mostly from the electronics sector, will be retrenched by 137 employers in the next three months, Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam said.
He said the figures, including some 1,500 Western Digital workers in Kuching, were updated as of yesterday.
"My ministry will ensure that the workers get the compensation due to them." he said after a dialogue with Malaysian Training Providers Berhad.
He said under the Employment (Termination And Lay-off Benefits) Regulations, workers would be compensated a part of their salary for each year of service.
For workers who have been with a company for two years or less, compensation would be 10 days of salary per year of work.
For those who clocked in between two and five years, it would be 15 days of salary per year and for those above five years, 20 days.
Dr Subramaniam said the Government would look into getting alternative employment for the workers or retrain them.
"So far, we have not held dialogues with these workers but we will be contacting them soon and setting up counselling sessions," he said.
Dr Subramaniam said he was not sure whether the number of retrenched workers would increase but added that some things were beyond the Government's control.
"However, we will ensure the retrenchment is done fairly," he said.
He said any employer intending to retrench, lay off, offer voluntary separation schemes or reduce salaries would have to inform the ministry 30 days before such action is taken.
On foreign workers, Dr Subramaniam said the employment contract agreed between the employer and the worker had to be honoured and that the foreign worker would have to go back home if he or she was retrenched.

Funny my birthday has been causing me to malfunction and go down too....do you think Tommy could delete a few of mine.
Thank God it's not a nasty case of multiple personality-itis with a multiple postistis afflicton.
Ok, I put the birthday mod back online with a little modification.
The original way it was invoked, required a lot of system ressources, that's why we had to remove it. Everytime a user accessed the main page, there was a huge database query. Now the output is generated once a day in the morning and stored in a file, which will then be included the whole day long. The only drawback are, that new users don't appear in the list, when they register on their birthday and that the timezone the birthdays are updated is (currently) CET. But the update happens at 7 am CET.
ya awsome......and if it helps....there is a Birthday thread in the members section u can make as a sticky so people will can know if the list on the main page ever gets taken off.
I am part of an elite group of people......THE MEN OF JCO.
(Standing member since July 18th, 2005)
@KC8t80: Which posting are you talking about?
Well, the birthday list won't be taken off the main page again. It'll stay there. I'll just have to remember it, when installing an update of the board software. So drop me a line, in case I miss it and it's gone.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has asked the maker of Zen Magnets to stop producing its small but powerful magnets that they say are a danger to kids. If ingested by a child, the magnets, which are meant as a stress relief product for adult use, can attract each other so powerfully that they pinch internal tissues, resulting in infection or even death. Eleven other manufacturers have already taken similar products off the market.
Plus: The Hidden Hazard of Tipping Furniture
The CPSC had earlier asked the maker of similar product Buckyballs, which the CPSC says have caused more than two dozen injuries in kids since the product was introduced in 2009, to also remove their product from shelves. The company has been fighting back with an online "Save Our Balls" campaign.
Plus: LEGO Up Boy's Nose for Three Years
The American Academy of Pediatrics is also calling for the removal of these products, and urging parents to keep them far from kids. According to AAP.org: "Recent anecdotal reports have shown that magnet ingestions have led to dozens of surgeries, bowel perforations or fistulas, endoscopies, bowel resections, and other serious gastrointestinal injuries." Unfortunately, the symptoms of magnet ingestion—abdominal pain, vomiting, and fever—are the same as a stomach bug, so it's difficult to diagnose.
Do you think this product should be taken off shelves? Or is the CPSC going too far? Leave a comment.

Legion leader says, "for once and for all, say no to TRICARE fee increases!"
WASHINGTON (April 11, 2013) -- The leader of The American Legion has reiterated his organization's strong opposition to any increases in the premiums paid by military retirees for their TRICARE for Life medical insurance coverage. TRICARE for Life is the Department of Defense-administered medical insurance plan for retired career service members over the age of 65. The DoD's just released budget plan for fiscal year 2014 includes marginal raises in TRICARE for Life co-pays and an overall fee increase to 2 percent of gross retired pay within five years.
"That is egregious enough," said James E. Koutz, national commander of the 2.4 million member Legion, the nation's largest veterans service organization, "but the Pentagon budget also includes proposals to raise fees and premiums for working age enrollees in the TRICARE Prime and TRICARE Extra plans. Those raises may start out slowly at first, but escalate rapidly over the next several years. So again – and more loudly than ever -- we say no to the idea of placing more and increasingly significant financial burdens on those who have dedicated their working lives to serving our country. These periodically resurrected proposals remain absolutely unacceptable. We said it last year. We say it this year and, if necessary, we'll say it next year and the next and the next. Raising TRICARE fees is a bad idea that effectively punishes loyal citizens who have already sacrificed quite enough on behalf of all of us.
"Even the Pentagon itself must suspect as much," continued Koutz, "given that the happily titled "People Are Central" section of their just issued "Summary of the DoD Fiscal Year 2014 Budget Proposal" makes absolutely no mention of the TRICARE fee increase proposal. That, in itself, should tell Congress all it needs to know. We hope that our senators and congressmen will do the right thing and say, for once and for all, NO to TRICARE fee increases."
The American Legion has traditionally resisted proposals to increase TRICARE premiums and fees. Its formal opposition was most recently articulated in a resolution passed unanimously by Legion leadership at their annual convention in August 2012.

"The Harbors We Seek," the third album by Kent-based band the Speedbumps, is one of those records you could play early in the morning or late at night, on a sunny afternoon or a snowy, gray one.
"The Harbors We Seek," the third album by Kent-based band the Speedbumps, is one of those records you could play early in the morning or late at night, on a sunny afternoon or a snowy, gray one.
Warm, easygoing, understated and honest, it just feels good. It flows and grooves.
Erik Urycki, the band's vocalist, guitarist and chief songwriter, said a lot of the album's naturalness and intimacy is due to where it was recorded.
"We did it in five days in an A-frame cabin in the middle of the woods in Pennsylvania with all this natural reverb and natural sound," he said. "You can hear birds throughout, and you'll hear the floorboards creak at times."
It was a focused woodland retreat for the Speedbumps and their producer-engineer Jay Alton, a 27-year-old from Columbus. "We stayed there, completely detached from our worlds. We did this record in one place and time," he said. "I feel the album is a reflection of this experience."
"The Harbors We Seek" will be released Nov. 29 (Black Friday) at all the download outlets. Hard copies will be available at the band's celebratory Kent Stage concert that night.
The Speedbumps — whose lineup includes 1997 St. Thomas Aquinas High School graduate Patrick Hawkins on drums — played a collaborative concert in 2012 with the Canton Symphony Orchestra at the Palace Theatre. The band also has performed here at Panini's, Jerzee's and Fedeli.
About his songs on the new album, Urycki said, "A lot of it pertains to the human condition. It definitely tugs at the strings of the human heart. During the writing process, people close to us passed on, so there's some somberness in it. It's all over the place."
"High Thread Count Suits," which has a reggae flavor, was inspired by the 2012 campaigns, "when the only thing on TV and radio were political ads," Urycki said. "I never felt so disconnected from our leaders. I just got fed up." The blues-tinged "Breakdown" is "about turning 30 and freaking out about it," he said. "It's for people post-college, pre-grownup. That's where we all are."
Urycki said there's a strong chance that the upcoming Kent Stage concert will feature the entire album: "Some of these songs we've been testing out over the past year, some we have never played live."
"The Kent Stage, that's our home," he said fondly. "Sonically, it's perfect if you want to hear the layers of a band like us. Even if the Speedbumps ended up being this huge band, Black Keys level, we would still do shows at the Kent Stage. It is the best place for us."
The Speedbumps' sound often is compared to Dave Matthews Band, Jack Johnson and John Mayer. While Urycki is fine with this, he names as his favorite songwriters Paul Simon, Ryan Adams, Nick Drake, Ray LaMontagne, Alexi Murdoch and Amos Lee. "I've always been a fan of Glen Hanford," he said. "When you talk about the feelings of a song predicated on emotion, he's a direct influence on the Speedbumps in that way."
The Speedbumps' direct and unadorned new disc is a source of obvious pride for Urycki. "What you lose in technicality, you gain back in emotion," he said. "A lot of music listeners can't put their finger on it, but that's what they're attracted to. Authenticity."
Tickets for the Speedbumps Kent Stage show Nov. 29 are $10 at www.kentstage.com. To sample music and videos, visit www.thespeedbumps.com.

At the table with Shaki and Sunshine
They're still together, Shakira and Gerard Pique - yay!
They're still always all over each other - yay...?
Here they are in Barcelona yesterday at dinner with some friends. They've both had busy work schedules lately so they haven't seen each other as often as they'd like. Which is why they can't keep their hands off each other although I suspect, busy or not, these two don't need an excuse. Yes, Shaki and Sunshine are the type to bust out the tongue in the middle of the meal while other people are watching, mid-conversation.
I'm not normally down with that kind of a display. But I'm also a pervert. And I don't think I'd have a problem perving at the same table with Shaki and her boy. What am I saying? Lock up your PDA unless you're hot and famous? Is that unfair?

There is something about winter that brings kokosh cakes to mind. When the weather is cold outside, and the snow is softly silent, there is something soothing and warming about fresh, runny yeast cakes. I am not really sure what it is. Maybe it's the warm, soft dough, or the heavenly smell that makes you want to stay indoors, near the kitchen and that homey aroma. Its probably also, though, the actual cake- any yeast cake-that has the magical ability to make one into an accomplished homemaker. In my Hungarian family background, if you can make a killer kokosh, you are automatically "geshikt" (accomplished).
In reality, there is a sort of satisfaction when you can serve your own home baked bit of goodness to your family, guests or friends. During my years as food editor at Binah Magazine we printed these recipes, and they garnered more attention than almost any other recipe. I hope you enjoy them, and join the hundreds of others who have made this recipe part of their shabbos or yom tov.
I somehow feel like a competent balbabusta when there is a kokosh cake in the freezer…….even if it's the only thing in the freezer!
When I asked around for the best kokosh cake in town, I was directed to Roizy's house. Indeed the results were heavenly…. What especially struck me about this dough was its amazing elasticity. It was very easy to roll a very thin layer. I really just pulled it apart after minimal rolling and it spread out into a really thin sheet. Roll the dough as thin as possible and be very generous with the filling to create that real chocolaty effect.
5 lb flour
1 lb margarine (4 sticks margarine)
½ cup oil
1 cup sugar
3 oz yeast
2 Tbsp vanilla sugar
1 cup orange juice
3 cups warm water
6 eggs
4 yolks
¾ tsp salt
2 cups cocoa
5 cups sugar
1 Tbsp coffee
½ cup flour
1 vanilla sugar
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
Egg Wash:
1 egg yolk
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp water
In the bowl of electric mixer, place the yeast, sugar and 1 cup water. Let it sit until the yeast starts bubbling (yeast proofs)
Add the remaining ingredients, alternating wet and dry. Add salt last. Mix for a full seven minutes. Mix ingredients for the filling in a large mixing bowl. Separate challah, reciting the bracha, and cut dough into as many pieces as desired (one quarter of the dough makes the cake in the photo). There is no need to let this dough rise. Roll the dough very thin, the thinner the better, and smear with a small amount of oil, cover generously with filling. Roll up to create a long log. Cut the log into even sized pieces, about 1½ inches thick. Place them upright around the perimeter of a 9 inch foil pan. Once the perimeter has been covered, create another row toward the centre and continue until you have only space in the centre for one piece. Place 2 pieces flat on their side, one on top of the other, to create the centre of the design. Brush with egg wash and bake for 35 – 40 minutes at 350 degrees.
Tip: while the dough may seem a bit wet at first, once you start workng with it, it becomes much easier. Sprinkle a bit of flour if desired
Tip 2: Roizy said she sometimes sprinkles Bacardi, or rum onto the filling before she rolls it up. I tried it, and it was delicious. It created a slightly more sophisticated twist to a good ol' homemade kokosh cake.
Tip 3: Always use more filling then you think initially necessary. It tends to lessen as the cake bakes.
Tip 4: This dough freezes really well. Raizel makes the dough and freezes it in 8 ziploc bags. Every Friday morning she takes one out of the freezer, waits till it reaches room temperature and rolls, fills and bakes. Fresh homemade chocolately kokosh cake every week!
While Roizy's kokosh cake generated more enthusiasm than any other recipe printed to date, a few people wrote and requested a lower fat version. This cake contains no trans fats, is less fattening (its not low fat – its kokosh cake!). The dough is light and airy and the filling is not too sweet for those who don't like cakes with too much sugar.
5 lbs flour
1¼ cup sugar
4 oz yeast
1½ cup oil
2 whole eggs
8 yolks
Pinch of salt
1 cup apple juice or light grape juice
4 cups lukewarm water
8 egg whites
1¼ cup cocoa
1 cup sugar
2½ Tbsp oil
Egg wash:
1 egg yolk and 1 Tbsp water, mixed
Preheat oven 350°F.
Place the yeast, sugar and 2 cups of lukewarm water into bowl of an electric mixer and let sit for 5 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients alternating dry and wet. Mix on high speed for full 5 min. Cover dough and let rise for about 1 hour.
Meanwhile make filling: beat egg whites in bowl of electric mixer. Add remaining ingredients and mix until smooth. Take challah. Cut dough into 6 equal portions.
On a floured surface, roll each dough thinly and smear with filling. Roll up tightly into a long rope. Fold rope in half and twist until; the whole thing looks twisted- like a rope. Place in loaf pan. Rise again 1 hour. Brush with egg wash and bake for 45 minutes.

I tried your recipe! It came out delicious!The best part of it was that I frooze half of the dough recipe for next time.
My kids couldn't have enough of it! For all of you out there this recipe is worth while trying!!!
I definitely second that! This kokosh recipe is absolutely heaven! You'll actually find it difficult to wait until it cools down once its out the oven to eat it once you've made it the first time!
yum. looks amazing, can't wait to try it out when I have a chance!
hi, when you write to proof the yeast, sugar and flour is it ok that there is no liquid ingredient or do you proof it in a bit if warm water?
This recipe looks amazing!! Do u think I can use oil instead of the marg?
When I had a bakery, we filled it like this: Chocolate marble, then chocolate cake crumbs, topped by cocoa sugar -- it is delicious! You can use the same combination for puff pastry chocolate rugelach as well!

Hypercalcemia in Cancer Patients
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
My mother has breast cancer with spread to her bones. Recently she became disoriented and started to hallucinate. The doctor said that this is due to the high calcium level in her blood. Is this common in cancer patients? Why would cancer patients have high calcium level in their blood?
Li Liu, MD, OncoLink editorial assistant, responds:
Dear M:
Thank you for your interest and question.
Hypercalcemia (high calcium level in serum) is the most common life-threatening metabolic disorder associated with malignant diseases, occurring in approximately 10 to 20 percent of cases (Lab Invest 1992 Dec; 67(6): 680-702). The most common cancers associated with hypercalcemia are breast and lung cancer and multiple myeloma. Hypercalcemia in patients with cancer is due to increased bone breakdown and release of calcium from bone. There are three major mechanisms by which this can occur: osteolytic (bone destruction) metastases with local release of cytokines; tumor secretion of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP); and tumor production of calcitriol (Lab Invest 1992 Dec; 67(6): 680-702).
Some clinical symptoms have been associated with hypercalcemia, including neurologic symptoms such as decreased muscle tone, muscle weakness, delirium, disorientation, incoherent speech, and psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations and delusion. Hypercalcemia may also cause constipation, malaise-fatigue, anorexia, nausea and/or vomiting, urinary frequency, thirsty, and pain (Ann Intern Med 1990 Apr 1; 112(7): 499-504). Few patients experience all symptoms, and some patients may not experience any. It is important to know that clinical manifestations of hypercalcemia are not only related to the serum calcium concentration but more importantly to the rapidity of hypercalcemia onset.
Treatment for hypercalcemia includes fluid hydration, IV medications to lower the calcium level, and treatment of the tumor to remove the stimulus for increased calcium.

I was wondering with the Olympics around the corner and the positive vibe coming of the competitions (pkra , kte, etc) How many boards does a manufacturer is gonna sell in the future?
The entry cost is quite high and racing is difficult.
Are we talking 100 boards or 1000 boards?
Do you guys see alot of people going to a store and buying one at your local beach?

"Deathly Hallows: Part 2″ DVD and Blu-ray Release November 11?
Aug 15, 2011
DH Film
Reports have been making their way online stating that November 11, 2011 will be the release date for the US "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2″ DVD and Blu-ray editions. Blu-ray.com reports that multiple editions are set for release on this date, including a four disc combo pack, two disc Blu-ray, and Blu-ray 3D disc copy of the film. Word on any special features the editions may have has not been released, but, interestingly enough, November 11th is also the date when Universal Orlando's Wizarding World of Harry Potter is scheduled to start their "Celebration of Harry Potter Films" at the park. Leaky is awaiting official confirmation from WB on the exact release date of the DVDs, so this news sits in the rumor category for the time being.
Thanks to Snitch Seeker for the heads up!

Come on guys. It's just a simple procedure. A man sticks a large object inside of a woman while she cries in pain but tells him to not stop. There's nothing remotely sexual about that.

The Elder Scrolls has the best, hands down:
The Lusty Argonian Maid
Act I, Scene II: Tiber Septim's Chambers…
Lifts-Her-Tail: Your Majesty, my deepest, deepest regrets.
Septim: Oh, nevermind dear cherib. (He hastily throws an evening robe on.) [A pause] Perhaps oh Flower, you may lend aid to the Empire. For days, I have consulted with mages, physicians, and courtesans, but alas, my sword cannot stand up and has the penetration power of a rotting, damp swamp reed.
Lifts-Her-Tail: Does thou speak of what I believe?! Should you not consult a smith?
Septim: No crucible is so purifying, no forge blazes so.
Lifts-Her-Tail: You flatter me! You are the Emperor of Tamriel, whilst I am a mere maid.
Septim: Ha! You are more than that! I can feel that familiar stir! Come! Bend your back to the task, melt me in your crucible, and bring down your blows!
Narrator: Some hours pbum, amid cries of "O Tiber!" and "You strike harder than the orc smiths!" dominate the stage.
Lifts-Her-Tail: [a deep breath]...Your sword is far more sharp [another breath] ... and penetrating than your brother, though your son is as a mounted Nord lancer!
Act IV, Scene III, continued
Lifts-Her-Tail: Certainly not, kind sir! I am here but to clean your chambers.
Crantius Colto: Is that all you have come here for, little one? My chambers?
Lifts-Her-Tail: I have no idea what it is you imply, master. I am but a poor Argonian maid.
Crantius Colto: So you are, my dumpling. And a good one at that. Such strong legs and shapely tail.
Lifts-Her-Tail: You embarrbum me, sir!
Crantius Colto: Fear not. You are safe here with me.
Lifts-Her-Tail: I must finish my cleaning, sir. The mistress will have my head if I do not!
Crantius Colto: Cleaning, eh? I have something for you. Here, polish my spear.
Lifts-Her-Tail: But it is huge! It could take me all night!
Crantius Colto: Plenty of time, my sweet. Plenty of time.
Act V, Scene IV
The Solar of the Nevavarine's Father
Narrator: An Old man, lonely and tired, sits by the warm fire, sipping on a quart of good ale. His name was Belisarius. His thoughts wander back to the days of prime, and to him, nothing pbumes faster than time. He remembers warring with the great houses of Morrowind and of fighting the occasional Nord incursion. If only he had a child to carry on his legacy.
Belisarius: Come here, good maid.
Lifts-Her-Tail: Yes master.
Belisarius: When did my kin bring you or your family to Morrowind?
Lifts-Her-Tail: I was sold to a Dunmer trader by the local chieftain. That elf wouldn't take his eyes off me. I wish that I might have given him my body for my freedom. A scarf hid his face though. That was 20 years ago, before I arrived here but 2 years ago.
Belisarius: That elf was no trader, but a hired mercenary. Secondly, I want a son or daughter. Now, I must go plant my seed. After I reap the harvest in 9 months, you shall be free!

Members of a musical legacy that cast off from the far reaches of Acadiana decades ago are returning home to roost.
Members of a musical legacy that cast off from the far reaches of Acadiana decades ago are returning home to roost.
Thursday at the Patio Bar, 314 Belanger St., in downtown Houma, Frank Ball sat on a stool next to Jon R. Smith, a Grammy award winning saxophone player who hails from Jeanerette. The two largely covered rhythm and blues hits from the '70s, '80s and '90s, mixing in some popular music.
The meeting of the two could be described as serendipitous. When Smith left New Orleans 40 years ago to become one of the music industry's most sought after journeyman sax players, Ball moved in to take his place.
"I played in a band he had been in called the Jackson Brewing Co. He was such a monster in that band they hired two of us to take his place, and I think we barely managed to do it," Ball said.
Smith, now 68, started his professional career at age 12. At 16, he met Edgar Winter, best known for the chart topper "Free Ride." Then, Smith was living in Lake Charles and would play in Vinton, near Beaumont, Texas, and the state line, where droves flocked to take advantage of Louisiana's then 18-year-old drinking age.
Winter played in a band called the Edgars, and Smith began his career as one of the music business' foremost journeymen.
Smith first toured in 1976 with Winter's White Trash and went on to play with Boz Skaggs, Toto, Dr. John Albert Collins, Peter Maffay, The Doobie Brothers, Keb Mo and others.
It was a business that both invigorated and infuriated the south Louisiana native.
"I was a young fellow and did real well and realized that the band was very successful, but me and most of the people involved were so screwed up at the time we didn't realize most anything," Smith said, hidden behind dark framed glasses and a neatly trimmed beard.
Smith said his No. 1 priority since moving back to Louisiana is fishing. Second is keeping his saxophone chops in shape.
Ball, who himself returned to his native Houma earlier this year after retiring from real estate in Los Angeles, was introduced to Smith through Jack Bunn, a trumpet player who had stints with Jimmy Clinton.
Smith still counts on his musical gigs for some income. He carries a Hunter S. Thompson quote with him in his tenor saxophone case that reads 'The music business. It's a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.'
"All the glory that everybody else sees in it isn't really there," Smith said. "We had managers robbing us blind, booking agents robbing us blind, performers robbing us blind, hotels robbing us blind. Everybody else made money, but we didn't make any money because we had to pay for all of that."
But for Smith, as much as for Ball, Houma has become the venue for a second career in music, the one that so long eluded both of them.
"I just got tired of beating the road. I've moved 27 times in the 41 years I've been married," Smith said. "I pretty much just wore out. After a while you kind of have to let go and come back down to earth. The one good thing that happened to me was my friend Jack Bunn introduced me to this guy (Ball)."
The relationship has also rejuvenated the early dreams of Ball's career.
When Ball moved to Los Angeles, he did small-venue shows, weddings and private parties. He played so much that eventually he developed carpal tunnel syndrome, left music and got into real estate.
Ball slowly fell back into music as his passion in retirement, playing with a band from Mississippi before returning to Houma and putting together a trio that includes Roger George, the jewelry who helped put together the late Thibodaux Music Hall of Fame, and Thad Richard, who had stints playing keyboard with Paul McCartney.
The addition of Smith last month has made the group into a star-studded quartet that plays The Patio the second Saturday of each month.
Ball and Smith have put together more of a regular thing, playing the Patio, 7-11 p.m., Thursdays; Grady V's, 900 Country Club Blvd., Thibodaux, 5-10 p.m., Fridays; and the Tiger Lounge, 6723 W. Main St., Houma, 5-10 p.m., Saturdays.

Stockport Appoints Zeph Mbugua to Board of Directors
Feb 18, 2013, 11:00 ET
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, February 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Stockport Exploration Inc. (TSX: SPT) (OTC: LMTCF) Wade K. Dawe, Chairman, is pleased to announce the appointment of Zephaniah (Zeph) Mbugua as a Director of Stockport Exploration, effective February 18, 2013.
Mr. Mbugua is a resident of Nairobi, Kenya and Chairman of TransCentury, a leading Kenyan investment company traded on the Nairobi Securities Exchange. Mr. Mbugua is also a founder and currently the Chief Executive Officer of Abcon Group of Companies, a diversified group of companies involved in chemicals and the manufacturing of breakfast cereals. He is also the Chairman of East African Cables (K) Ltd., as well as a director of Proctor & Allan EA Ltd., Flashcom Ltd. and Zeniki Investment Ltd. Mr. Mbugua has a BSc in Chemistry and Mathematics from Makerere University.
Stockport's flagship project is a district size concession representing 2,020 km2 primarily covered by the Lake Victoria Greenstone Belt. This highly prospective Archean Greenstone belt represents a unique geology. Historically, other Archean Greenstone belts of similar geology in the world have produced a significant number of large-scale mine operations. To date, limited modern exploration has been undertaken in Kenya.
"Kenya is the primary focus for our company. It has been our objective for some time now to be able to add a board member from Kenya of Mr. Mbugua's caliber," said Jim Megann, Stockport Exploration's President and CEO. "We specifically sought out Mr. Mbugua to join our Board to help Stockport ensure we continue to deliver value to our shareholders while benefiting Kenya."
Mr. Mark Welton has resigned from the Board of Stockport. The Company would like to thank Mark for his significant contributions over his years of service. Mr. Welton will remain as a consultant to Stockport.
About Stockport Exploration Inc.:
Stockport is focused on the exploration of a district-scale land package along a prolific gold-hosting greenstone belt in southwest Kenya. The 2,020 km2 property package has the potential to host multiple mineral deposits, including Lode-Au and Cu-Zn-Au-Ag massive sulphide types. Stockport also holds the La Morena Copper-Silver property in Coahuila, Mexico, the Seymour Lake Tantalum-Lithium-Beryllium property near Armstrong, Ontario, and the KM61 property, which hosts a 43-101 Compliant Molybdenum-Copper-Silver Resource, also near Armstrong, Ontario.
Forward-Looking Information:
This release includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking statements". All statements in this release, other than statements of historical facts, that address future production, reserve potential, continuity of mineralization, exploration drilling, exploitation activities and events or developments that the Company expects are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The likelihood of future mining at the Nyanza Project is subject to a large number of risks and will require achievement of a number of technical, economic and legal objectives, including obtaining necessary mining and construction permits, completion of pre-feasibility and final feasibility studies, preparation of all necessary engineering for pits and processing facilities as well as receipt of significant additional financing to fund these objectives, as well as funding mine construction. Such funding may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms or on any terms at all. There is no known ore at the Nyanza Project and there is no assurance that the mineralization at the Nyanza Project will ever be classified as ore. For more information on the Company and the risk factors inherent in its business, investors should review the Company's Annual Information Form at http://www.sedar.com

Linking out from EADS
Currently, our Encoded Archival Description finding aids (EADs, reference http://www.loc.gov/ead/ ) are being created in Archivists Toolkit (AT, reference http://www.archiviststoolkit.org/ ).
Since many of the collections we have digitized thus far are small, containing only one to five items, the archivists will enter the links for these items into the EADs within AT, and export them.
Here are the instructions for Obtaining PURLs for online content.
However, for mass digitization of content, such as with large collections for which we will not have item-level human-created metadata, the links will be added by script.
Here are specifics for what those tags will look like: Scripted Links in EADs
And here is a current copy of a PERL script that will add those links. File:LinkContent.txt
An example of how this will look online can be viewed in the Cabaniss EAD, under the first series description, in the legal papers, box 5. http://acumen.lib.ua.edu/u0003_0000252

Snow, rain, slushy mix make for tricky morning commute
Snow, rain, slushy mix make for tricky morning commute
