Getting the goat, monkeying around, pigging out and crowing about it
It's a zoo out there as far as racehorses are concerned
1 Susie the snow-white nanny goat was almost as big a celebrity as her Grand National-winning 'stablemate' Foinavon, whose lad Cliff Booth found himself acting as part-time milkmaid. "When I milked her, the horses all used to shout for it, and I took round the bucket and let them have a drink," he said, noting that of his two charges, the bigger one was the easier to deal with. "I couldn't leave the goat on its own, it always had to climb somewhere, always be trouble."
2 Charlie the pig saved the bacon of the Bruce Brown-trained sprinter Strong Impact, whose welcoming nature on the backstretch at Belmont earned him a new pal. "The pig went into every stall in the barn and all the horses were kicking and biting him, but Strong Impact didn't do anything," yardman Andres Garcia told the New York Times. "Now the horse worries when Charlie isn't in the stall."
3 Csalogany the cat was the boon companion of Hungarian legend Kincsem, and the horse was obsessed with her 'pet'. One day Kincsem was waiting to be loaded on a train but the cat was nowhere to be found. For two hours Kincsem planted herself and would not move, hollering constantly for her friend. Eventually Csalogany came running back, leapt on the mare's back, and Kincsem calmly boarded the train.
4 Shetland ponies were the only animals that would do for 1918 Kentucky Derby winner Exterminator, who spent his entire life after he was retired with three little hairy pals all named Peanuts. The polyamorous love affair lasted 21 years, until Peanuts III died in 1944. "When the last one died, the mourning of Exterminator was unmistakable," noted The Blood-Horse.
5 Jo Jo the spider monkey was an exotic addition to the entourage of the great Seabiscuit, which included a stray dog named Pocatell and a yellow cow pony called Pumpkin. Trainer Tommy Smith enlarged The Biscuit's stall in Detroit to accommodate Pumpkin; legend has it that Seabiscuit drifted off to sleep each night with Pumpkin on one side of him, Pocatell on his stomach and Jo Jo curled up on his neck.
6 Nobby the sheep helped soothe the restless Champion Chase winner Remittance Man. "The horse worried himself to bits in his box, walked round and round in circles, so we put a sheep in there to try to calm him down," said trainer Nicky Henderson. "We gave him 'Allan Lamb', then 'Ridley Lamb', and then we put Nobby in with him, and that was a success."
7 A crow – its name lost in antiquity, if it ever had one – accompanied 1914 Kentucky Derby runner-up Hodge, according to turf historian Jim Bolus. It was taught to perch on a rail and squawk "Come on Hodge! Come on Hodge!"
8 Two goats were better than one for Breeders' Cup Marathon winner Eldaafer. When the gelding was shipped from Florida for a race at Turfway Park, goat Google was left behind. Eldaafer was inconsolable and refused to train on the track. At home, Google was equally distraught. The goat was put on a plane, the two were reunited, and Eldaafer perked up enough to win his race. Another goat, Yahoo, was purchased as insurance in case anything happened to Eldaafer's main squeeze.
9 Sancho the grey cat adopted Breeders' Cup Sprint winner Runhappy, who happened to be in the right place at the right time. "He's always hung out with Happy, maybe partly because his stall is right by the office – that was the first horse he came to," trainer Laura Wohlers told Natalie Voss, of the Paulick Report. "Sancho really watches him. It's really strange, he'll lie in front of Happy while he's grazing and Happy'll just step over him."
10 One of the most celebrated equine love affairs was between the great filly Pebbles and stablemate Come On The Blues, who were inseparable at Clive Brittain's yard. "Pebbles is very uptight, very fractious before a race. She needs Come On The Blues to calm her down," said Brittain. "They are in adjacent boxes and spend hours looking at each other. Their relationship is like a happy marriage."

The registration for our workshop on academic teaching with phyphox (in German) on 7th September 2018 is now open. More information and the registration form can be found here.
Author: Sebastian Staacks
Version 1.0.13: Italian and Greek translation
With version 1.0.13 we have another minor translation update introducing Italian and Greek, created by Giovanni Organtini and Κωστής Χαλκιαδάκης (Costis Chalkiadakis). If you would like to help to translate phyphox into your language as well, check out our languages page for more information.
Actually, this update has been released on Android more than a week ago and should just be a quick language update on iOS as well. Unfortunately, Apple has rejected the update as they decided that the experiment "roll" might damage the phone. So we had to remove this experiment and resubmit the app. Therefore, the update got delayed.
Changes on Android and iOS
- Italian translation.
- Greek translation.
Changes on iOS
- Experiment "Roll" deactivated by Apple's request.
Version 1.0.12: Dutch and Russian translation
Version 1.0.12 again brings new translations, Dutch and Russian, done by Ivo Janssens (with support from Evelien Urkens and Andreas Van den Bergh) and Alexander Nedilko, respectively. If you would like to help to translate phyphox into your language as well, check out our languages page for more information.
Also note, that we will happily share worksheets in any language. Since we can only provide the website in English and German, only those worksheets will be found directly in the experiment data base (like a fantastic new worksheet on pressure by Holger Jessen-Thiesen), but we will share any material in other languages on our languages page (like the first Dutch worksheet by Dirk Janssen). For more material we can also add a dedicated page for a specific language or add a link to an external collection.
Changes on Android and iOS
- Dutch translation.
- Russian translation.
- Inelastic collision experiment hides invalid intervals.
- Translations are now also applied to units.
Changes on Android
- Fix lines connecting to first point when loading a previously saved state.
Changes on iOS
- Fix crash when value element has empty map tag.
Two new events in Göttingen and Hamburg
Two new events have been added to our calendar. The first one is a physics colloquium in Götting on 23rd April (held in English). The other event will be held in German on 16th June in Hamburg as a workshop (not to be confused with the talk and workshop in Hamburg this Friday, 13th April).
New events in Hamburg and Aachen
We have added two new events to our calendar (both held in German). The first one is a teacher conference on 13th April 2018 in Hamburg. The second one is our training for phyphox in academic teaching which was quite popular last year. While a detailed program will follow, you can already save the date: 7th September 2018 in Aachen.
Experiment: (In)elastic collision
phyphox can determine the fall height of a ball from the noise it makes while bouncing.
New events in Würzburg and Esslingen
New events in Germany have been added to our calendar as we will present a poster and two talks at the DPG Spring Meeting in Würzburg and give a workshop at a teacher's training in Esslingen.
Version 1.0.11: Czech and Polish translations for phyphox
With version 1.0.11 we introduce the first translations of phyphox, which are Czech and Polish, done by Karel Havlíček and Tomasz Greczyło respectively. If you would like to help to translate phyphox into your language as well, check out our languages page for more information.
Changes on Android and iOS
- Czech translation.
- Polish translation.
- Introduced a new "language" entry to the info menu on the main screen.
- Fix: Flickering in motion stopwatch.
Changes on Android
- Update to file format 1.6 and support audio sample rate output. (Which has been introduced as a hotfix to iOS previously.)
phyphox is featured in a physics school book
Phyphox is now featured in a German physics school book (Dorn/Bader 11 for Niedersachsen). You can check out a preview on the publisher's website (in German). Phyphox is used throughout different chapters and especially featured on pp. 170-171.
phyphox in Taipei
Last week, I had the chance to speak at the Annual Meeting of the Taiwan Physical Society and to give a workshop at the National Taiwan Normal University. For this I have to thank Professor Chih-Ta Chia for the invitation, the warm welcome and the great hospitality. The same thanks go out to all the friends, teachers and students I met there who helped to make these three days in Taipei unforgettable.

As you will notice, I changed the title of my blog. Realistically, my home isn't always happy, but there is always something happening. I try to be happy amidst everything that goes on, but sometimes I put on a happy face when what I really want to do is vent, be mad or frustrated, sad or depressed, or laugh at some of the dumb things I do. I also want to share the fun and happy times too, but I have to be real and share my struggles in order for me to grow. In sharing my struggles and achievements, I plan to take the Pollyanna approach and make myself put a positive twist on whatever I may talk about. So now, on to my latest rantings.
WOW! What a year 2010 turned out to be. So many trials intertwined with blessings. Looking back, I can't believe I started out the year as a new mom and Ashton was only a month old! I spent the first couple of months of 2010 staying home with my baby while hooked up to a wound vac. That was difficult when it happened but sure seems like old news now. That ended up being a blessing by allowing me to be home until Ashton was 3 months old while getting paid the entire time.
Fortunately, life was uneventful for about 5 months while I adjusted to being a new mom. Then came the beginning of June, the start of "criminal" activities for me. Finally standing up to my mother-in-law ended up being detrimental to my clean criminal record. An argument ensued between the two of us and ended with me receiving a citation from the Salt Lake City police for domestic violence and a few other charges. June, July, August, and Septmeber were filled with attorneys, court hearings, fines, and an anger management class. I learned through this whole event that it is better not to say anything and just walk away. Fortunately this event opened Alan's eyes to how his mom treated me and how he never stood up for me. Through months of counseling, Alan and I have learned how to manage his mom more effectively by taking the driver seat in the relationship (if this makes sense.) Alan's mom and I have made amends and are kind to one another. I definitely will not let myself make the same mistakes with her that I made in the past, but I have forgiven her for what she did and she has forgiven me (for now) for what I did.
In August I was in a car accident that totalled my 2002 Ford Escape. I was within a mile from work on Vine Street and 300 West. A lady in a Toyota Corolla ran the red light and broad sided my car. Hers looked like a tin can that had been stepped on while mine looked like it would be all right. Unfortunately, the front axel was totally broken and there was a lot of internal engine damage so it ended up being totalled. However, I received nearly $9,000 for my nearly 9 year old car and went to buy my new car, a 2009 Ford Edge. I love my new car. It has black leather seats that have seat warmers in them and a DVD player in the back seat (these are my two favorite options.) It is a very nice car and I love to drive it.
September was my saddest month. My dad passed away on September 12th from a massive heart attack (we think.) His passing shocked us all yet at the same time it wasn't too much of a surprise. It shocked us all so much because it happened so quickly with no suffering involved. He had been dealing with some chronic health issues for the past couple of years, but he seemed to be managing all right. He wasn't able to walk as far as he once did because he got winded so easily, but somehow he managed to a few of the things he still loved to do. Dad loved to watch sports and yell at the refs. He loved to play electronic Yahtzee and solitaire on the computer. He loved old war movies and westerns. He loved to go grocery shopping and out to eat, but most of all, my dad loved to spend time with his family. He was so excited whe he found out I was pregnant with Ashton and was one of the first people to see and hold Ashton after he was born. He was so happy and proud to be a grandpa again. Fortunately dad got to know Ashton for the first 9 months of his life. Now Ashton is fortunate to have a grandpa who will be looking over him from heaven. I have missed my dad's corny jokes, his laugh, his smile, teasing, childhood stories, work ethic, dedication, compassion, faith, love, and devotion to wife, family, God, and church. I think about him every day and just wish I could hug him one more time.
October and November proved to be happier months. Though dad was gone, I was able to enjoy Ashton's first Halloween and his first birthday. Ashton was a monkey and Alan and I dressed up as bananas for Halloween. Ashton didn't quite get the idea of holding his bucket out for candy, but we will se if he catches on next year.
November was great. My aunt Rinda and uncle Marv came into town for Thanksgiving. It was great to see the two of them and have some laughs. We also celebrated Ashton's first brithday around Thanksgiving. We helped him open presents and baked him his own mini cake so he could tear into it. He was a little timid at first to just dive into the cake, but after licking some of the frosting off one finger at a time, he realized it was cake and grabbed a large handful and shoved ti in his mouth. He enjoyed the cake for a minute or two but was soon annoyed that there was cake sticking to his hands. Once he was cleaned up, Ashton was a much happier one year old.
Finally December was upon us. The first week and a half was filled with shopping and decorating followed by fevers and colds. Ashton was a miserable little guy. He was recovering from getting six immunizations, was getting his top two front teeth, and had bad cold on top of it. Not too much later Alan and I were sick. Of course as a mom I never get a sick day, I have to keep taking care of the little one as well as nursing my husband. One Sunday, December 12th to be exact, I stayed home from church sick. I wanted to finish decorating the Christmas tree, but Ashton wanted me to hold him. While holding Ashton in my arms and decorating the tree, I tripped on my pants and fell to the floor while hitting my right shoulder on the wall. I heard and felt my shoulder crunch, but was more worried about hurting Ashton. Fortunately Ashton wasn't hurt, but I found out later in the Instacare that I had fractured the top of my humerus. I wore a sling for two and a half weeks and began physical therapy on the 29th of December. Wow! what a way to end an already eventful year. I feel fortunate that my should wasn't hurt worse and that Ashton wasn't hurt in any way, but it really would have been nice for it not to have happened at all.
Well, GOODBYE 2010!!! Hello to 2011! I hope this year proves to be less eventful and more prosperous. Best wishes to all of you who read these rantings, I hope you find them entertaining.

Nolan is a mine on Nolan Creek a few miles west of the small town of Wiseman, which itself is about 13 miles from Coldfoot. Nolan is the most common place by which hikers who aren't getting a ride on a bush plane, access Gates of the Arctic National Park, whose eastern boundary is usually 5-10 miles west of the Dalton for over a hundred miles.
we went up the ridge on the east side initially. No trail, and this is the brush we hiked through.
Looking southwest. On the left side of the hill behind the lake is Pasco Pass, a traditional route for accessing the Gates of the Arctic region.
Looking south at Wiseman Creek
We cut across the ridge and down the other side, crossed the road southbound and walked through more brush and tundra.
This got us to the banks of Wiseman Creek, and a nice gravel bar to relax on
Back to part 3 or on to Through the Brooks Range

I would like to introduce my first guest blogger. 'Otto', or 'the Otto Dude' is a familiar figure on the beer scene in the north-west of England and throughout the land. His website, 'Otto's Rambles', mentioned below, is well worth a look if you are planning to visit somewhere on a beer holiday. In this blog, Otto tells us about three beers from the New Zealand Epic Brewery.
Hi Fellow Beer Drinkers!
Let me introduce myself. I am known as 'OTTO' on the UK beer festival scene and I have a web site that I try to keep up to date – www.ottosrambles.co.uk that gives the low down on the best bars and pubs etc. to sup beer in around the world, so if you are looking for somewhere to go on that long awaited beer vacation then you can't go far wrong by checking out my web site first.
I don't usually write about the beers I have tried. This is actually my first attempt! Which is pretty poor actually as I have tried over 10,000 beers over the last 12 years. I know it's a hard job but some one has to do it!
I was recently lucky enough to be sent three 'Epic' beers, from a friend on Facebook, whom I have never met in person, but who is also a beer lover and hails from the UK. Don't you just love beer people?
So let's begin with the Epic Brewery. Based in Otahuhu, Auckland, founded in November 2005, and one of the new Hop Forward brewers, they have even done a couple of collaboration brews; one with Dogfish Head (USA) where a beer called 'Portamarillo' was brewed with Pohutakawa wood-smoked Tamarillo fruit and another with Thornbridge (UK) to brew an Epic version of their Imperial IPA, Halcyon. While at Thornbridge, Kelly Ryan decided to up-sticks and move to NZ and become part of the team, The motto is; You can only drink so many beers in a lifetime, so you'd better make each one count. They also brew some awesome stouts and porters, plus they have won many international awards for their beers.
So I was sent three bottles of Hop Zombie, which I had been waiting a long time to try, plus Message in a Bottle and First Batch NZIPA.
I will start with the Message in a Bottle at 7.5% ABV. This is brewed in the old English style of IPAs that used to be exported by ship around the empire; It pours a copper colour with a fluffy head and lacing that lasted on the glass to the last sip.
This one has a definite British hop character, as it has Fuggles and Challenger in the brew. The smell is quite fruity with notes such as nectarine, ripe apricots and golden peaches. This is such a great smell that says "drink me now!" So without more ado let's get down to the taste which has a good whack of hops upfront, prickly and bitter followed by a touch of marzipan and blackberries, plus a fruity maltiness – but the star is the huge hoppy bitterness.
Overall I would say this beer matches up to any IPA and is really true to style, not over-bitter and with a good malt backbone. I would definitely sup this again given the opportunity.
So now for the First Batch NZ IPA. At 6.8% ABV, it's not a lightweight. This is the first time ever the newly named Waimea hops have been used in a commercial beer. So new in fact that at the time the beer was brewed they hadn't even been named. It is also brewed with NZ malts to make this a true NZ beer. On pouring there are aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, gooseberries and toffee lollies. Anyway it pours a clear light golden amber with a large bubble laden head that stays to the end of the glass.
So to the taste: there are notes of mangoes, pineapple, toffee and berries that are finished with good herbal hop that gives a nice tangy bitterness and invites a second taste. This rewards you with more exotic fruits and a tingly mouthfeel going all the way to the back of the throat. If this is what New Zealand tastes like then bring it on down!
Now the one I had been waiting to try for a long time and I was not disappointed. Hop Zombie is a cheeky little 8.5% ABV IPA. This beer is an apocalyptic psychopath of a beer and I loved it. So let's try and describe this world-class IPA. This beer has a pale colour when poured. The head isn't super-retentive, and leaves a light lacing which lasts to the finish. Great aromas of mandarin, passion fruit and zesty citrus that all mingle well. Nice and hoppy, and very well put together.
And so to the long-awaited taste test, WOW! tangy hop flavours shine out easily over the malt base. The malt is there to provide sweetness to balance out the hop profile. It's just lovely how easy drinking it is for an 8.5% beer (beware). There are tropical fruit flavours all over and then your tongue is wrung out with bitterness followed by shockwaves of citrus, tangerine and Turkish Delight! This is not the atomic hop-bomb I was expecting at all. This is a gorgeous beer that leaves the mouth full of tropical fruit flavours.
Hop Zombie is definitely up there as one of my all-time top beers.
Anyway, hoped you liked my first beer blog and maybe I will be asked / tempted to do another one at some point!

Difference between QML WebKit & C++ WebKit?
Qt Docs says what there is two WebKit modules:
- Qt WebKit Classes for a WebKit2 based implementation and a new QML API. See also Qt WebKit Widgets in the add-on modules.
- Qt WebKit Widgets WebKit1 and QWidget-based classes from Qt 4.
I'm now starting to port Qt4 WebKit browser to Qt5, and i I'm confused about what should I actually use? Is the QWebView/QWebPage classes are outdated and I should use QML webkit plugin? But my app is actually in C++ and i don't want to use this freaky QML. It also does not gives me needed flexibility like setting own QNAM , context menu events, control of subwindow creation etc...
What is going on with webkit and what should I use?
I am not expert on this topic but what I learned so far is that the webkit when used in the webview of QML is most upto date. But there are many features which are still not available such as ability to do websettings etc..
Also if you use the WebView in QML you will have to load it in using QQuickView in c++ code which create its own window. Which means you can't use your old .ui files. There are few solutions around that which should be verified.
webkit in c++ is almost unchanged. Again this is i learned from my experience.

Does Insulin Resistance Cause Gout?
August 4, 2011 by Lynn.
It's commonly believed that the excess uric acid that causes gouty arthritis results from problems with purine metabolism and/or overindulgence in purine rich foods.
Another less well known theory is that high uric acid levels are caused by, or associated with, insulin resistance (a pre-diabetic condition in which insulin becomes less effective at controlling blood sugar).
It is well known that gout sufferers are at increased risk of diabetes, and vice versa. Several studies have demonstrated that insulin inhibits the elimination of uric acid through the kidneys.
South African researchers looking at the possible connection between insulin resistance and high uric acid put thirteen gout sufferers on a diet known to combat insulin resistance, the Zone Diet. None of the study participants were taking uric acid lowering gout medication.
During the four-month study period, the participants' monthly gout attacks dropped an impressive 70 percent. To read more about the gout diet study on best-gout-remedies.com, >CLICK HERE.<

Advanced Medical Imaging Technique Can Diagnose Gout
August 8, 2011 by Lynn.
A medical imaging technique called dual-energy computed tomography (CT) is proving to be a reliable method to diagnose acute gout in a hospital emergency room setting. The technique can detect vessels and bones and display them in contrast to one another more clearly than conventional imaging techniques.
The technique is being used in Vancouver, BC in Canada, where doctors say it leads to earlier diagnosis and improved gout treatment. To read more about diagnosing gouty arthritis with dual-energy CT on Science Daily, >CLICK HERE.<

Age Old Resin Proves a Natural Arthritis and Gout Medication
August 10, 2011 by Alex.
An age old substance could offer new hope for sufferers of inflammatory arthritis and the more common osteoarthritis. That substance is frankincense, a resin derived from the hardy Boswellia tree. Frankincense has been traded for over 5000 years, and is best known for its aroma. It is commonly used in incense and perfumes.
Frankincense is also widely used in various religious rites, and was said to be among the gifts presented to baby Jesus by the biblical Magi, or wise men, along with gold and myrrh (a similar reddish resin). Frankincense is still burned in the Roman Catholic Church.
Frankincense has also long been valued for its medicinal properties. The resin is edible, and is used in Asian traditional medicine to aid digestion and promote healthy skin. Frankincense has also been used in Ayurvedic (traditional Indian) medicine for hundreds of years, and is called dhoop. Dhoop is used for treating arthritis, healing wounds, strengthening the female hormonal system and combating germs and mosquitoes.
Scientists have been investigating frankincense as a treatment for chronic inflammatory conditions such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, asthma, cancer, and rheumatoid and osteoarthritis In 2008, researchers from John Hopkins University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem reported that frankincense smoke was a psychoactive drug that relieved depression and anxiety in mice.
In another 2008 study at the University of California, 70 osteoarthritis patients taking a frankincense extract showed a significant improvement in their condition in less than seven days, with no major adverse effects. The extract was a proprietary product developed by Laila Nutraceuticals.
Recently, scientists from Cardiff University in Wales, noting that frankincense was a traditional herbal remedy for arthritis in the local Somali community, began to research it in the lab. Their research focused on whether and how extracts of frankincense could help reduce arthritic inflammation and reduce pain.
They were able to demonstrate that an extract of a rare frankincense species, Boswellia frereana, inhibited the production of key inflammatory molecules, helping to prevent the painful breakdown of cartilage that is characteristic of arthritis and gouty arthritis.
"What our research has managed to achieve is to use innovative chemical extraction techniques to determine the active ingredient in frankincense," explained Dr. Ahmed Ali, "Having done this, we are now able to further characterize the chemical entity and compare its success against other anti-inflammatory drugs used for treating the condition."
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), arthritis is the most common form of disability in the US, impacting nearly 21 million adults. Arthritis can be classified as either inflammatory or non-inflammatory. Inflammatory arthritis is characterized by the presence of inflammatory white blood cells in the joint fluid.
Gout is an inflammatory form of arthritis, as is rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a non-inflammatory form of the disease. Both forms are incurable, but can be managed with lifestyle changes and arthritis or gout medications. Check out the Colchicine video online.

Is Vitamin C a Natural Gout Remedy?
August 12, 2011 by Lynn.
Vitamin C is one of the best known and most readily available vitamins, and also one of the cheapest. John Mepham of www.best-gout-remedies.com has researched vitamin C as a natural remedy for gout, and written an e-book in which he shares his findings.
Mepham's research suggests that vitamin C is a helpful gout remedy that increases the body's ability to excrete uric acid. But he warns that the effect may be more subtle than gout sufferers would achieve with prescription gout medication. He also cautions that rapid changes in uric acid levels caused by Vitamin C or a prescription gout drug can trigger a painful gouty arthritis attack.
The 15-page report includes information on research on vitamin C for gout, recommendations for the use of the natural remedy as a gout medication and preventative, and dietary sources of Vitamin C.

Experimental Gout Medication Outperforms Allopurinal
August 15, 2011 by Alex.
Spanish researchers have presented exciting findings to the 2011 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Congress. An investigational gout medication, lesinurad, was able to achieve rapid and sustained reductions in urate levels in gout patients who did not receive the desired results with commonly used uric acid lowering medications.
"Lesinurad, a URAT1 inhibitor that increases the urinary excretion of uric acid, is a potential treatment option for patients with gout," said Dr. Fernando Perez-Ruiz, one of the Spanish researchers from the Hospital de Cruces, Baracaldo in Vizcaya.
Lenisurad has shown significant urate lowering activity both used alone and in combination with either prescription allopurinal (name brand Zyloprim) or febuxostat (Uloric). The Spanish study involved 208 gout patients who had high blood urate levels for at least 6 months, even while taking the gout drug allopurinol. Patients continued on allopurinol and were randomly assigned to receive either a placebo or lesinurad at doses of 200 mg, 400 mg, or 600 mg for four weeks.
All three groups who were given lesinurad showed significantly lower uric acid levels at the end of the month. The percentage of patients who achieved the target for uric acid levels after treatment was 28% in the placebo group, 71% in the 200 mg group, 76% in the 400 mg group, and 87% in the 600 mg group.
After the initial 4 weeks of treatment, 115 patients entered an extension phase in which most of them continued treatment with 200 mg of lesinurad. At week 28, 83% of the first 30 assessable patients were at target serum urate levels, with no serious adverse effects.
It's assumed that this lowering of uric acid levels will have a significant impact on the dissolving and reabsorption of gout tophi (deposits of crystallized uric acid) in the body.
New gout medications are few and far between, although there are currently at least eight gout drugs "in the pipeline". The first new gout drug to be approved in 40 years was febuxostat name brand Uloric) in 2009. In 2010 the FDA approved Krystexxa, an intravenous medication for chronic, severe gout that did not respond to other treatments.
The lesinurad mechanism of action is different than that of allopurinol and febuxostat. Both allopurinol and febuxostat are xanthine oxydase inhibitors which decrease the production of uric acid. Lesinurad is a uricosuric drug which increases elimination of uric acid through the kidneys.
Initial studies show that lesinurad may have significant advantages over another existing uricosuric drug, probenecid (Benemid), including less interaction with other drugs and more effectiveness in patients taking diuretics. This added benefit is because lesinurad is also active against another important regulator of urate secretion, OAT4. OAT4 is thought to be responsible for the high uric acid levels in gouty arthritis patients whose condition is caused or worsened by diuretics.

Does Caffeine Trigger Attacks of Gouty Arthritis?
August 17, 2011 by Estella.
The incidence of gouty arthritis doubled in the US between the 1960s and the 1990s, and that trend is continuing. Gout is feared as the most painful type of arthritis. It results from a build up of uric acid in the blood, which ends up deposited around the joint or joints in sharp, needle-like crystals, most often at the base of the big toe.
"Gout is the most common inflammatory arthritis in the US," says Dr. Tuhina Neogi, an associate professor at Boston University School of Medicine, "We have good gout medications that can potentially prevent attacks, yet people do still get attacks, with recurrent attacks being the biggest burden of gout."
While gout is considered a chronic, incurable disease, it can be managed with lifestyle changes and gout medications. Gout flare ups are highly associated with diet, particularly food rich in naturally occurring compounds called purines. Red meat, yeast, certain seafood and alcohol well-known gout triggers.
Researcher Neogi and her team were intrigued by earlier studies that found caffeine intake appeared to lower uric acid levels in the body over time, decreasing the risk of developing gout. But those studies were conducted with non-gout sufferers, and the team wondered about the effect of caffeine on people who already had gout.
Caffeine was of particular interest to the researchers because its chemical structure is very similar to a common uric acid lowering gout medication, allopurinol. While effective over time, allopurinol can trigger a gout attack in patients just starting to take the gout medicine.
This is because, as the uric acid crystals deposited in the joints begin to dissolve, they release uric acid into the blood stream. Neogi and her team wondered if caffeine might have the same short-term effect.
The team studied gout patients who drank caffeine-containing beverages like, coffee, tea, soft drinks and energy drinks. They found that caffeine "binges" did indeed trigger gout flare ups. In fact, gout patients who normally had a low caffeine intake who drank six caffeine containing drinks in a day tripled their risk of experiencing a gout attack within 24 hours.
However, those gout patients that normally drank more than two servings of caffeinated beverages a day had no reaction to increasing their consumption, much as a gout patient taking allopurinol for gout no longer experiences a flare up after the first few doses.
"I would not advise someone with gout to start drinking coffee as a way to lower uric acid levels due to its short-term effects," cautions Neogi. "People with gout who are already habitual caffeine drinkers probably don't need to change their habits, given that long-term caffeine intake can potentially lower uric acid levels. But the person who doesn't drink a lot of caffeine on a regular basis should be aware that drinking more than usual may potentially trigger an attack."

Gout Medication Krystexxa Given Intravenously
August 19, 2011 by Alex.
In 2010, the FDA approved the first and only gout medication to treat adults with chronic and severe gouty arthritis that didn't respond to existing gout drugs. The intravenous medication, Krystexxa (pegloticase), is derived from an animal hormone. The pegloticase mechanism of action is different than that of other gout medications - it converts uric acid to a nontoxic byproduct that is easily excreted in the urine.
Krystexxa is given as an intravenous infusion over at least two hours every two weeks. The FDA has warned that patients should be given a corticosteroid and antihistamine before infusions because of a high risk of allergic reaction. Other common side effects of Krystexxa are gout flare ups, nausea and vomiting, chest pain, constipation, nasal irritation and bruising at the injection site.
Despite these Krystexxa side effects, the FDA believes pegloticase is an important option for the 3% of gout patients that don't benefit from other gout medications such as prescription colchicine, allopurinol and febuxostat. Approximately 3 million Americans suffer from gouty arthritis.
Krystexxa was not studied in patients with congestive heart failure, and the FDA advises it should be used with caution in patients with the condition. Krystexxa is manufactured by Savient Pharmaceuticals, an American company based in New Jersey. For more information on the gout medication, visit krystexxa.com.

Celery as a Natural Gout Remedy
August 22, 2011 by Lynn.
Celery has been used for centuries as a natural diuretic and anti-inflammatory. When it comes to gouty arthritis, celery is believed to act in much the same way as the gout drug allopurinal.
Gout is caused by excess uric acid in the body. Xanthine oxidase is an enzyme that plays a major role in the production of uric acid. Allopurinal is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor that reduces the creation of uric acid.
Studies in rats showed that celery may also inhibit xanthine oxidase. Two small human studies treating arthritis and gouty arthritis patients with celery extract also achieved positive results.
James Duke, PhD, a botanical consultant and former ethnobotanist, is the author of The Green Pharmacy. After Duke developed gout and was prescribed the gout medication allopurinol, he decided to try celery instead. He reported he kept his gout symptoms at bay using two to four tablets of celery extract a day, without taking allopurinol.
Celery's ability to both reduce swelling and increase the elimination of uric acid through the urine makes it a popular natural alternative to prescription gout medications. Herbalists advise that celery extract should not be taken by pregnant women, or by anyone with an allergy to celery.

Eight Famous People with Gouty Arthritis
August 24, 2011 by Alex.
Gout is normally associated with portly historical figures such as King Henry the VIII. Benjamin Franklin missed several important meetings in which the Declaration of Independence was drafted due to gout flare ups, and had to be sent the documents to make his revisions.
But the rate of gout has doubled in the last 50 years, and remains on the rise. It now affects over 8 million Americans, most of them men, and many of them young and otherwise healthy, such as major league baseball pitcher Curt Schilling. Gout is considered the most painful form of arthritis and remains a chronic and incurable condition. Luckily, it can be managed with diet and gout medication.
Fellow pitcher David Wells said he gave a "high falsetto scream, like a six-year-old girl", when he woke up with his first attack of gout and stood up on the affected foot. To see which famous basketball player and soccer star suffer from gout, and which well known actor developed gouty arthritis after gaining 60 pounds for a role (ending up in a wheelchair), check out the Health.com slideshow, 8 Famous People With Gout.

Epsom Salt Relieves Gouty Arthritis Pain
August 26, 2011 by Lynn.
Another popular natural remedy for the pain and inflammation of gout is Epsom salt. Epsom salt gets its name from the town of Epsom in England, where it is distilled from springs rising in an area where porous chalk hills meet non-porous clay. Epsom salt is composed of magnesium, sulpher and oxygen, and is also known by its chemical name, magnesium sulphate.
According to the Universal Health Institute of Chicago, magnesium is the second-most abundant element in human cells. The Institute says magnesium helps to regulate the activity of more than 325 enzymes, performing a vital role in orchestrating many bodily functions, from muscle control and electrical impulses to energy production and the elimination of harmful toxins.
American's magnesium levels have dropped more than 50% in the last century, and it's believed that most Americans are magnesium deficient. Magnesium deficiency is thought to play a role in arthritis and joint pain, heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, digestive ailments, chronic fatigue and other ailments.
The Universal Health Institute says that magnesium also:
- Eases stress and improves sleep and concentration
- Helps muscles and nerves function properly
- Regulates activity of over 325 enzymes
- Helps prevent artery hardening and blood clots
- Allows the body to use insulin more effectively
- Reduces inflammation to relieve pain and muscle cramps
- Improves oxygen use
And that sulfates:
- Flush toxins
- Improve digestion and the absorption of nutrients
- Help form joint proteins, mucin proteins (mucus membrane secretions) and brain tissue
- Help prevent or ease migraine headaches
Both magnesium and sulphate can be absorbed through the skin, which is the body's largest organ. Epsom salt's ability to relax muscles, reduce swelling, relieve pain, fade bruises, draw out toxins and soften skin has made it the primary ingredient in most bath salts. Of special interest to gout patients, it also increases the secretion of uric acid through the skin.
Add two cups of Epsom salt to a standard size bathtub of warm water (or one cup to a warm footbath) and soak for at least twelve minutes two to three times a week (more often for foot baths). Some people claim adding one cup of vinegar (preferably apple cider) per every two cups of Epsom salt enhances its effects as a gout treatment. Soaking a gout-affected foot in a foot bath warm water and Epsom salt can provide almost immediate relief for many gout sufferers.
You can also make a compress by dissolving two cups of Epsom salt in a gallon of warm water, soaking a cloth or towel in it, and wrapping the cloth around the sore joint (in the case of gouty arthritis, usually the big toe). Some people use a thick sock to hold the compress against the effected area, but others can't stand the pressure of a sock on the sore joint. You can also cut the end off an old sock and use it to secure a compress applied to arthritic knees, wrists, and elbows.
Epsom salt is inexpensive, non-toxic, and readily available in drug and grocery stores. It makes an excellent addition to the gout sufferer's arsenal of natural gout remedies and prescription gout medication.

Bananas as a Natural Gout Treatment
August 29, 2011 by Estella.
Christine Marquette, a registered dietician from the Austin Regional Clinic, has produced an informational video titled Nutrition & Diets: About Bananas & Gout. In the video, Marquette explains why bananas are thought to decrease gout symptoms.
She attributes bananas' ability to act as a natural gout treatment to their high levels of potassium and vitamin C. Marquette points out that gout is caused by high levels of uric acid in the body, and a gouty arthritis flare up increases the acidity of the body.
Potassium helps regulate the body's acid-base balance (the normal equilibrium between acids and alkalis). The potassium in bananas may decrease the acidity in the body, making it more alkaline.
As well, the vitamin C in bananas has anti-inflammatory qualities that may help reduce the painful inflammation which always accompanies a gout attack. While she doesn't go so far as to say bananas could replace gout medication, Marquette does feel the fruit should be a part of any gout patient's diet.

New Colchicine Safety Studies
August 31, 2011 by Lynn.
Recent results from a series of colchicine safety studies provide doctors with the first evidence-based dosing guidance for the gout drug when colchicine is prescribed along with certain common drugs, helping to avoid serious and potentially life-threatening drug interactions.
The study results were published in the August issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism, the journal of the American College of Rheumatology. The paper recommends colchicine dose reductions when used with medications such as immunosuppressants, antibiotics, hypertension drugs, anti-fungals and protease inhibitors.

Aubrey Plaza's relatable character
- Bang Showbiz
- 5 November 2017
Aubrey Plaza thinks people will be able to relate to her obsessive loner character in 'Ingrid Goes West'
Aubrey Plaza thinks "everyone" can relate to her 'Ingrid Goes West' character.
The 33-year-old actress plays loner Ingrid in the black comedy, which sees her develop an obsession with hipster Taylor (Elizabeth Olsen) after coming across her Instagram account, prompting her to move to California to infiltrate her life, and she insists her alter ego's extreme behaviour will strike a chord with most viewers.
She said "I think everyone can relate to where Ingrid is coming from.
"Just wanting to be like someone else, or wanting someone to like you so badly, or being obsessed with someone else's identity. Just focusing all of your energy on somebody else's life online -- I think that's the thing that people do.
"They go down these rabbit holes on Instagram or Facebook, and you spend a lot of energy looking at people's lives, and you can't help but compare yourself to them, and it just feeds this weird toxic part of your brain."
Aubrey believes the movie has perfectly captured the digital age and current obsession with social media.
She added in an interview with The Sunday Times: "It does succeed in capturing a very specific time that we're in."
The former 'Parks and Recreation' star thinks she is very different to how people perceive her to be.
She said: "I was more type A at school than people would assume.
"I was always the president of whatever club was around. I was way sillier and outgoing and funny than deadpan, sulking in the corner. The weird, creepy girl, that's not me at all."

Cubs-Diamondbacks Preview
A road series against the lowly Arizona Diamondbacks has given
the Chicago Cubs some confidence after a tough homestand.
The Cubs go for their second three-game sweep this season when
they close their set Wednesday night against the Diamondbacks, who
send the red-hot Edwin Jackson to the mound.
Chicago (37-47) came into Arizona after completing a 2-5
homestand in which it was outscored 35-12. However, it has put
together back-to-back victories for the first time since June 16-17
to secure its first series win on the road since taking two of
three against Texas from May 21-23.
The Cubs beat the Diamondbacks (32-52), who have the
second-worst record in the NL, 6-4 on Tuesday behind two home runs
from Aramis Ramirez and one from Kosuke Fukudome. Ramirez hit a
pair of two-run shots for his first multi-homer game since Aug. 23,
2008. He came in batting .178.
"It's about time I start contributing to this team," Ramirez
said. "… I've never been that bad in my life. I don't think I'm
that kind of hitter. I think I'm a decent hitter. I've been good
through the years. So hopefully I take this game and just take
Ramirez isn't the only Cub that's turned things around in the
series. Fukudome is 3 for 8 with two homers after hitting .077 (2
for 26) in his previous 12 games.
Chicago, which has scored 15 runs in the two wins, will try to
complete its first three-game sweep since April 23-25 at Milwaukee.
However, it will be facing Jackson (6-6, 4.74 ERA), who hasn't lost
since May 28.
Since suffering a defeat that day to San Francisco, Jackson is
3-0 with a 2.70 ERA in six starts and the Diamondbacks have won his
last four outings.
After throwing a 149-pitch no-hitter against Tampa Bay on June
25, Jackson gave up four runs and seven hits in five innings of a
12-5 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday for his third
straight victory.
However, the right-hander was hit hard in a 10-5 loss to the
Cubs on May 2, allowing eight runs and 11 hits – two homers – over
four innings.
Jackson will be opposed by Ryan Dempster (6-7, 3.54), who has
split his last four starts despite posting a 2.97 ERA.
Dempster gave up five runs – two earned – in 6 1-3 innings of a
12-0 loss to Cincinnati on Friday. He struck out nine and allowed
only two hits but walked five, including three in the seventh when
Mike Fontenot committed an error and the Reds scored nine
The right-hander is 1-6 with a 6.11 ERA in 16 appearances – 12
starts – against the Diamondbacks. His last win versus Arizona was
in 2000 while with Florida.

It's this time of year again... time for outdoor yoga at La Vudèle! Starting next Thursday, 2. June, at 10h we will take our morning practice to the garden behind the house, to greet the rising sun and enjoy a lovely morning practice.
Each week there is a different theme, a different focus, be it on balance, inversions, cooling asanas, invigorating sequences, all dependent on the experience of the participant, the mood of the day and the general energy.
And what a joy it was to practice outdoors, to be outside, surrounded by nature: in the cooling shade under the vast mulberry in our garden; by the side of the wheat field with views across lavender fields onto Mont Denier. This mountain range, with an altitude of almost 1900m, serves as a focal point for tadasana or mountain pose: imagining oneself a mountain, a natural structure which like our body and mind does neither sway nor move, solid, grounded.
No reservation is required, mats are provided, € 10 per person participatory fee.
Namasté and welcome to everyone who will join this summer!

Hwang Bo: "We Got Married" causes me to be seen as old,
Sunday August 3, 2008 Korea
One of the disadvantages of filming WGM is that people would see me as being old.
MC Shin Jung Hwan had posed a question to Hwang Bo while she was guesting at Radio Star on the 30th of July, asking her what were the advantages and disadvantages of filming WGM.
Her reply was that one of the disadvantages was that the viewers would think that she was really old as she had come out on the show portraying an older woman. The advantage was that she can show her feminine side as compared to her current image, which is a good thing.
MC Kim Gu Ra asked her who the 'Him' was in her digital single titled 'Gift for Him', to which she replied that the Him was God. She said that Christians would be able to emphatize, however she said that it was somewhat a burden to reveal because of those who were not Christians.
When asked about her boyfriends, she replied that she broke up with her last boyfriend two years ago, and that to answer simply as to why they broke up was because of character differences.

"Kang Soo Jung Criticised for A Bad Hosting Job on We Got Married"
August 5, 2008 by coolsmurf
New female MC Kang Soo Jung have hosted the past two episodes of MBC star wedding variety "We Got Married", relegating the original MC Lee Hyuk Jae into becoming a consultant beside Park Myung Soo. Viewers originally viewed her appointment with anticipation, hoping that she would offer a female perspective to the excessive male MCs. But their anticipation has turned into bubbles.
Since original female MC Kim Won Hee left the show to film a drama, the viewers were anticipating the performance of Kang Soo Jung to fill up the void left behind by Kim Won Hee and offer views as a housewife and from a female perspective. But it has become glaringly obvious that Kang Soo Jung is unable to do a adequate job of even filling her shoes after two weeks of hosting.
Many commented on the official website, "She speaks too much, she is not the main focus of the show but the host, she should just stick to fulfiling her MC duties", "Hope that she can restrain herself. The viewers are not idiots (she was like doing commentary for every scene). Hope that she can just stick to offering perspectives that only married women have."

"Another Look at Andy and Solbi, Alex and Shin Ae 100th Day Wedding Photoshoot",
August 1, 2008 by coolsmurf
A big hand to _shin_ for grabbing these excellent near HQ quality pictures from Andy and Solbi, Alex and Shin Ae 100th Day Wedding Photoshoot. You might have seen some of them before but it doesn't hurt to see it again since it's so beautifully taken. I didn't know they used the same studio (L Studio)?
And let me set the record straight, there has been news about Andy leaving "We Got Married" in the past day. But that's just speculation fabricated by someone and then spread by others thinking it's true since it's such a big thing. They even said Kim Dong Wan was replacing Andy but how is that possible since he's going to be enlisted pretty soon. So it's not real since no one from MBC and Andy nor his management has been quoted. Remember nothing is true until someone related says anything. News can sometimes be so misleading.
Now for a little delayed Episode 20 summary. Loved Alex and Shin Ae interactions, they were acting just like before their "break-up". Crown J and In Young continues to be the most "entertaining" couple ever. Andy and Solbi was kind of overshadowed I feel, same with Hyun Joong and Hwang Bo. How is it possible that Hyun Joong and Hwang Bo keeps losing games, big or small?
DonDon has been the most improved MC in the studio and as the troublemaker since breaking up with Saori. That new female MC Kang Soo Jung seems to be tying too hard, commenting on PRACTICALLY every scene. Hopefully, her arrival doesn't signal the end of the show like she always does with previous shows.
From the previews, it looks like they are adding some drama elements again.

Thursday July 31, 2008 Korea
Andy of Shinhwa and Solbi of Typhoon have enjoyed much popularity as a couple on MBC's "We Got Married" program, and are known as AnBi by enthusiasts. However, it's all coming to an end as Andy will be officially closing his "We Got Married" activities on August 3.
Andy is preparing for his role as Kang Jung Ho in the musical "Polaroid" which will begin its run on August 1 at the PMC Freedom Theatre in Seoul. This is his sophomore musical after making his debut in "Music in My Heart" last year.
"Polaroid" is about love that is one-of-a-kind, just like each "Polaroid" picture that is taken. The musical is directed and composed by Seung Jae Joon and Won Mi Sol of Music In My Heart, respectively.
Andy will also be having an independent concert tour entitled "Shall We Love?" in September. His first solo concert is slated for September 6 at the Neung Dong Theme Park.
Solbi recently released a single that she co-wrote which supposedly expressed the feelings she felt for her "husband".
