Low and behold, guess who has been named/included.....
'as a party I would vote for'?- Yep, UKIP. Sure fired proof that the Tories have at last come to realise that 'the upstarts' of British politics are a serious threat to them. It has taken these numpties four long years to realise that they may well not be in a position of power after the next election. Four years to realise that the people now know that they are liars, cheats & charlatans. Remember the "Great Repeal Survey" of 2010 anyone? Remember the top request? Remember what Clegg said about in his infamous interview where he made a complete fool of himself by stating the 'brainwashed version' and not the truth? Funny how he was happy to 'follow the science' when it came to drugs!
Goodbye political career of honesty etc
I would imagine that the Tories will get a whole heap of responses similar to mine-Immigration, NHS, the EU but I doubt they will take any notice for they have money already, they don't need to worry about such matter, 'like what we does mister'.
It doesn't actually ask which way your thoughts run concerning the EU, just whether it matters to you or not. To me, this is just another sham poll to get the great unwashed to believe that they care about what you think – "Bah humbug!"

Any MP who have to ask what the Public want is a Fool, the public have made it very clear on issues like Immigration, the EU, the NHS, the Nanny State and so on, have they Listened ? well of course not, so to pretend they want to know now is absurd. UKIP have made it clear what they will do and the Public agree with them and Will vote for them at the next elections.ReplyDelete
"idiotic reports like this where a silly woman has complained that 'her' bus station is NOT smoke free it does make you wonder where the common sense in this country has gone?"ReplyDelete
Heh, it's most definitely not confined just to the UK Phil. Check out this note from an American. Note how frantic she is about the torture she's being forced to endure in her first nine sentences, and then the mention she throws in of another neighborhood annoyance in the last one:
There's an apartment behind mine and there's been a lot of secondhand smoke. Most of the people who have rented the apartment have been heavy smokers and in one case the person smoked so much that the amount of secondhand smoke was overwhelming. It would be in the am hours and literally fill my place up. The person was evicted for the smoking plus other things. This new person is also a heavy smoker. He's supposed to smoke outside but only steps out his front door and smokes so all of it comes into my place plus the am smoking. We have a law banning smoking inside, here, but he does it, anyway. If a person wants to smoke and abide by the law that's fine but not pollute my space or anyone's for that matter. Just so you'll know, the law requires that the person who smokes has to be 15' away from any building and not 2 or less'. There's also a meth lab in my neighborhood and they cook in the am so it's either ammonia fumes or secondhand smoke.
Of course meth labs have a tendency to blow up as well as smell bad, so she may not have that "secondhand smoke" problem anymore.
Michael J. McFadden
Author of "TobakkoNacht -- The Antismoking Endgame" who has, at least to this point in time, never had to deal with anything more than a secondhand smoke smell in my neighborhood!
Ah, Senior Service! When I was young they and Player's Navy Cut were the preferred smoke of the middle classes. Working class smoked Player's Weights or Woodbines. That's when those new-fangled filter tip thingys were still trying to make an impact on the market. No lying propaganda defacing the packs in those days either, just aesthetically pleasing and well designed covers.ReplyDelete
You're right. of course, that plain packs will be forced on the UK smokers, public consultation notwithstanding. Politicians are such spineless fools, one mention of 'the cheeldren'™ and they'll pass any asinine law. As in the smoking in cars idiocy.
I'm out of it, and I won't be back. The country I was born in doesn't exist any more. Cameron, Clegg, Milliband et al and their fawning sycophants can do their totalitarian worst, I refuse to be part of it.

Ash spelt out more than a year ago their new objective of a tobacco free UK. How could this possibly be achieved if according to Arnott, banning smoking in the home is not right or feasible? Is she spouting crap here, as she knows it's unlikely what she says is ever likely to be challenged.ReplyDelete
The UK smoking ban as a measure on its own has seen to it that smokers have no where to socialise. It has left many elderly not going out any more, excluded from society. Such extreme measures against smokers when the ban need not have been outright justifies reference to Ash as a smoker hate group.
Tobacco control and their smoking ban is ruining many peoples lives here. The outright ban is discrimination for which there are no grounds other than to de normalise.

|Achieve Home Top Previous Next
|Achieve performs project/task scheduling for active projects and tasks (that are not completed, postponed or in the D priority category) when the Actions | Reschedule command is invoked (see Actions menu). This topic describes the process that Achieve uses when scheduling projects and tasks.
|You supply the level of effort, dependencies and resources for each task and Achieve will calculate the schedule for the tasks and associated projects. Each task within a project has the following scheduling values:
|Target start date - The target start date for the task
|Target end date - Projected end date for the task
|Effort Left - Amount of effort that is still required to complete the task (this is effort and not duration)
|Resource Assignments - Resources that are assigned to work on the task
|Dependencies - Specify when a task can start in relation to other tasks
|Constraints - Place limits on when a task can start/end
|Only projects that are marked as "Effort Driven" (default for projects) will be scheduled by Achieve. Non-effort driven projects will use the date and effort values manually set for their tasks but will not automatically compute them based on resource availability or effort values. You can set the Effort Driven value in the Project Information Form or via one of the scheduling views.
|Project Start
|You can set the target start date for the project manually or leave it blank. If you leave it blank, it will automatically be set to Today during scheduling. You can use the Project Start value to specify that a project will begin sometime in the future rather than now. If you've previously specified a project start date, but now want the project start to be adjusted when projects are rescheduled, you need to clear the existing value (clear using backspace key on Target Start Date cell) before issuing the reschedule command.
|Effort Values
|Achieve uses level of effort values to measure the amount of work needed to complete a task. The level of effort is the amount of work that it would take an average person in your team to complete the task if they spent 100% of their time on it. It is not the same as the calendar duration of the task which depends on factors such as resource assignments, holidays/vacations, weekends, etc. With this measure you can compare one task against another irrespective of what else was going on during that time. The level of effort is the same whether you can devote one hundred percent or only fifty percent of a resource's time to the task.
|Effort values can be entered in the following units:
|Minutes (m or min) 5 m
|Hours (h) 20.5 h or 20:30 h (20 hours 30 minutes)
|Days (d) 2 d A day is considered to be 8 hours
|Weeks (w) 1 w A week is considered to be 40 hours
|When a project has no tasks associated with it, it is treated for scheduling purposes as if it had a single task with no dependencies/constraints and with the same target start and effort left as the project.
|You can specify the target start date for a project which will be used to schedule all tasks for that project.
|The scheduling algorithm processes tasks in order of project & task priority (A1 tasks before A2 tasks, etc) using the specified resource allocation until the task is completed. If multiple projects/tasks share the same resource, projects/tasks with higher priority take precedence over projects with lower priority as follows:
|"A" priority tasks of all "A" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|"B" priority tasks of all "A" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|"A" priority tasks of all "B" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|"B" priority tasks of all "B" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|"C" priority tasks of all "A" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|"C" priority tasks of all "B" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|All tasks of "C" priority projects (ordered by project/task priority)
|You can also use project or task resource assignments to limit the amount of a resource that is available for a particular project/task therefore making part of the resource available to spend some of his/her time in other projects/tasks with lower priority.
|Summary Tasks
|A task with children is considered a summary task for scheduling purposes and does not contribute directly to the level of effort for tasks. All the scheduling information for the children are used to calculate the values for the summary task. The only meaningful fields are:
|Dependencies - Dependencies placed at the summary task level affect all children
|Resource Assignments - Any resource assignments at the summary task level are used by default by any child tasks that don't have explicit assignments
|Scheduled Project Blocks
|Tasks assigned to your personal and work resources (default when there is no assignment at the task or project level) can specify the amount of effort available for various dates based on the project blocks scheduled in the Weekly Schedule view. The Project Block Scheduling Options... in the Tools menu can be used to specify if project blocks should be used for scheduling and what date limit should be used.
|Resources represent potential for work associated with one or more people. Typically each resource represents a single person working on one or more projects. You can explicitly assign the resources associated with each task using a Task Resource Assignment. If a resource is not explicitly assigned to a task, the default resource assignment for the task is determined as follows:
|Use the resource assignment of the closest parent task with an explicit assignment
|Use the default resource for the project (if it has one)
|Use the default resource for the project's result area (if it has one)
|Use the default resource for the result area category (if there is one)
|Use the standard default resource
|See Resources topic for more details.
|Lead Time Based Scheduling
|Lead time based scheduling provides a convenient way to schedule the target start date for projects/tasks with deadlines. The Lead Time value (available through the information forms and/or scheduling views) specifies the number of days prior to the project/task deadline when you want to start the project/task.
|For example, if you set the lead time to 10 days, the target start date is set to 10 days before the deadline.
|Lead time based scheduling only applies to items with deadlines. Projects/tasks without deadlines will not be affected by the lead time values.
|The target end date is not affected by the lead time. Depending on whether the item is effort driven or not, Achieve Planner will either automatically compute the target end date based on effort estimates (effort driven), or it will have to be set manually.

Apple unmasked this decade's iPhone September 12.
The phrase had been that Apple could be publishing "i-phone 8", "i-phone 7S" and also "i-phone 7S furthermore".
Effectively, it's absolutely safe to express that those who haven't been at this loop this time may confront some confusion whenever they appear the new releases.
That leads us
The Identify
While individuals had been busy imagining perhaps the brand new superior i-phone is going to be predicted "i-phone 8", "i-phone X" or even "i-phone 10", Apple was cooking something different altogether.
The brand new superior i-phone is termed "i-phone X" whether it's announced as "i-phone 10".
Did you listen to something different? Just like i-phone 8?
You aren't erroneous.
The mobiles i-phone 7S as well as, also we now presumed to become called i-phone 7S was termed i-phone 8 additionally along with i-phone 8.
The Look
Effectively, it looks like Apple had its hands full of the i-phone X which it overlooked any inventions inside i-phone 8 additionally along with the 8.
Apple was utilizing the design.
The color scheme shifted, so which could be relied on to get something.
The I-phone 8 and also I-phone 8 Additionally Is Available from Space Gray, Silver and also Blush Gold (that Is Only a fancy title for aluminum)
We are able to love that Apple used caliber to put that moment exactly the exact human body together.
Overall Performance
There is something to get a shift.
The processors were launched by Apple in i-phone 8 as well as along with both 8.
Go Through 5 MobilePhone Accessories That You Want Should You Move For Working Outside
And they both possess functionality that is much-improved.
Apple asserts why these an 11 heterosexual chips would be definitely the absolute most effective as well as the processors that are cleverest in virtually any smart-phone.
It works in relation to i-phone 7 plus along with the processor which is utilized in 7.
Additionally, it has the first processing device that's particularly made for that reality that is augmented.
I-phone 8 additionally and also the i-phone 8 possess 1 2 MP lenses that allow more lighting to 83 percent.
And Apple is also nice to present a few changes.
It comprises a "Portrait Lightning."
This influence enables the digital camera fix the light in order for the features appear great and then test the spectacle and you also enjoy an outstanding shot.
It really is, in reality, the i-phone to truly have the wireless, although Apple isn't the very first ever to present this.
This is.
Because the titles have been the values are perhaps not just a jolt.
It had been known thus they really did and why these mobiles might cost slightly bit more compared to the versions.
The purchase price to get i-phone begins with £ 699 for 64GB and also i-phone 8 in addition starts.
So it's well worth every penny?
Perhaps not quite.
That is.
Should you proceed with time and purchase it anyways, you're able to get the MobilePhone cases as well as additional accessories out of iShine as it is the very best portable accessories supplier and sim card reader.

This is the current stage of the center of the piece I am working on, it is going slowly.
I've been off my groove lately, this has somehow been a very complicated year, and I've let things eat away at my work time – a dangerous trend especially since technical problems are also hindering productivity.
These last few days I've been re-inspired and mad to work, but found myself instead enjoying spending time and eating (a lot!) with family and friends. Saturday I ate each meal with different people (ending up in an incredibly atmospheric old building full of wandering passages for a delicious dinner), but after lunch today it was time to get serious and focus, which feels great and frustrating at the same time.
The first few hours in the studio I generally spend flailing, the longer I've been away the longer I spend lost and wandering before I find the path, but I even resisted the holiday parade going down my street this afternoon and am finally making some progress.
Tomorrow I'll be getting my little flame thrower fired up, it's time to layer encaustic.
I'm excited because I'm getting ready for three months of travel, but I'm also mourning because I haven't been able to work on assemblages lately, and I won't be able to bring those materials on the road. I will be restricted to working on pieces like this one (which I do love creating), plus a few fiber projects which pack easily. It's frustrating to want to be making things and not be able to get my hands on the bits and pieces, but at least I will be finding more in the four countries I'll be travelling through to visit my family.
There are a few things I'm sharing from the garden before I leave – raspberries, boysenberries, figs, pads for nopales (with lentils, yum!), and this lone avocado, very buttery. When I get back there may be a few strawberry and pineapple guavas left, then there will be pomegranates. I'll miss the peaches – heavenly when they're ripe and the skin slides off in your fingers, also the ripening of the manzana bananas and thimbleberries. My stubborn pineapples think they are just for show, all the other bromeliads bloom while they just sit there, but I am very happy because an ancient cycad that was damaged and seemed to die three years ago just produced a beautiful crown of leaves.
I love traveling, although I will miss a lot of close friends – three months is a long time between visits, but I will be staying with family and friends, some of whom I only see every few years, and there will be a new bébé when I get back.
I have many partially finished pieces right now, but nothing near completion. Plus I keep changing my mind about which way to go with my favourite bits, many of which include pearls and copper wire. I am loving both the copper and steel wires I've been working with lately (and I always love pearls!).
This week I was at a few parties with people I don't see often but whom I adore, it was a great way to start the year. Eating as much fantastic party food as I did, maybe not such a great way to start the year.
Pearls are so beautiful and strange, the way they reflect light is fantastic.
This is the last thing I finished today, then I went to dinner with friends and met the wool-pusher's father, who is visiting from England. Miss P herself is easy-going and endlessly generous, with an incredible array of talents ranging from dancing and fiber-art through managing singers and teaching. She and her dad are full of funny stories about their lives, crazy wolfhounds, and adventures all over the world – they are the kind of family you want to be adopted in to, and it was a great ending to a good day.

Tragedy in Red is the only stage in Bad to Worse. Once completed, it will give the player 30 Cat Food and the opportunity to continue on to Doom Paradise.
At the start, a big group of beefy Those Guys appears. After that, a J.K Bun Bun at 200% magnification joins the battleground. Prepare for that, considering that very strong Ginger Snache will follow up very soon.
So, okay, you can deal with this. But the "fun" doesn't stop here, as Red Cyclone and several Shy Boys will join the battle after a short time!
This stage has a very tight enemy limit. Right at the beginning, the limit will be filled with Those Guys, and J.K Bun Bun will be queued up along with support Shy Boys. This means that the first time one of Those Guys falls, the bosses will suddenly begin to be released. Even at 2400% strength magnification, they don't have much health, so consider entering the stage with a Rich Cat powerup, or using your base to hold off Those Guys to save cash.
The biggest danger in this stage is not the Red Cyclone or J.K Bun Bun, but rather their boss shockwaves. As the two can spawn in quick succession of one another, you run the very real risk of all your heavy hitters landing behind the Cat Base and being unable to reach the front line in time. To get around this, don't release any important units until after J.K Bun Bun spawns, and save your Cat Cannon to stall for time immediately after Red Cyclone's boss shockwave.

As each nominee is read off, it feels like opening another gift from under the cinematic tree, and as expected, there are some you asked for and a few surprises.
It'll still be a month or so before I reveal my final Oscar predictions, but I have a few thoughts on the nominations.
It's clear the Academy's recent bad press regarding diversity has cleared the way for some evolution in the process. The #OscarSoWhite backlash led to a significant overhaul of Academy membership, adding a more diverse pool weighing in on who would be walking the red carpet.
This is a good thing. For too long, minorities have lacked opportunity and subsequent validation of their work, relegated to the sidelines as old white people basked in the glory of cinematic accolades.
But that said, while diversity seems to be trending in the right direction in Hollywood, there is still a lot to do to balance the playing field. As all of the minority nominees this year are deserving of praise, let's not fool ourselves thinking the Academy as a whole didn't breathe a sigh of relief that there was a noteworthy, diverse talent pool from which to cull from this year. It's sad, but don't think for a second that some of the votes were cast in an attempt to deflect negative press.
It's going to take some time for colorblindness to take root in an establishment so entrenched in a non-diverse bubble. Hopefully, as the Academy evolves into a younger, more diverse body, minorities in film will be looked upon solely for their quality of work, and not as simply a box to be checked by a nervous establishment.
Lady Bird
Call Me By Your Name
The Post
The Shape of Water
Darkest Hour
Get Out
Phantom Thread
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
No major surprises here. These are the films that have been jockeying for position throughout most of the awards season.
Most Significant - Get Out...being nominated here is significant, as the horror genre is not typically one the Academy favors. The social themes and cultural impact of the film is a sign that the Academy is waking up.
Get Lost - The Post...This is a good film, but it's riding the coattails of the A-listers surrounding it. It feels tailor made for awards season, but to date, hasn't made any splash.
The One That Got Away - The Florida Project...Director Sean Baker's sophomore effort is a poignant look at hope in the face of hopelessness. It's both heartbreaking and uplifting.
Frances McDormund, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Meryl Streep, The Post
Sally Hawkins, The Shape of Water
Saorsie Ronan, Lady Bird
Margot Robbie, I, Tonya
Again, nothing really shocking happened here. The Academy had an opportunity to think a little bit outside the box, but didn't take the shot...leading me to this...
Get Lost - Meryl Streep... Seriously? Forget #OscarsSoWhite. It should be called #OscarsSoStreep. Meryl Streep is one of the world's finest actresses, but it's beyond ridiculous that she gets nominated for basically every role, every year. It can't be THAT hard to sort through enough films to find one worthy of a top five nomination...leading me to this...
The One That Got Away - Vicky Krieps, Phantom Thread... I'd say going toe to toe against Daniel Day Lewis for better than two hours is a significant achievement. Krieps is Lewis's equal throughout, and the fact Meryl Streep was glad-handed another nomination over the far superior turn from Krieps just pisses me off.
Daniel Kaluuya, Get Out
Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour
Denzel Washington, Roman J. Israel, Esq.
Timothee Chalamet, Call Me By Your Name
Daniel Day-Lewis, Phantom Thread
After speculating whether James Franco would hear his name called this morning, it seems his extracurricular activities were his undoing. I actually expected to see him here, thinking the majority of ballots had been cast prior to the allegations of his sexual misdeeds. Franco's portrayal of eccentric filmmaker Tommy Wisseau was surreal, but he was rightfully pushed aside, which leads me to this...
Most Significant - Daniel Kaluuya, Get Out... Kaluuya's nomination here likely comes courtesy of James Franco's alleged sexual misdeeds, but he is worthy of acclaim for his role in Get Out.
Get Lost - Denzel Washington, Roman J. Israel, Esq.... Did anyone even see this film? Denzel is like Meryl Streep lite, getting nominations based mostly on who he is. He's a safe pick, even when his performance is nothing exceptional.
The One That Got Away - Jake Gyllenhaal, Stronger... Gyllenhaal was ALL in as Boston Marathon survivor Jeff Bauman. I think it stands as his best work, emotional and powerful.
Alison Janney, I, Tonya
Lesley Manville, Phantom Thread
Laurie Metcalf, Lady Bird
Mary J. Blige, Mudbound
Octavia Spencer, The Shape of Water
Lesley Manville was one of the biggest surprises of the day. She's flown under the radar for most of the awards season, but here she rides the wave of love unexpectedly bestowed upon Phantom Thread.
Most Significant - Mary J. Blige, Mudbound... This nomination is significant mostly as a coming out party for Netflix as a legitimate Oscar player, which brings me to this...
Get Lost - Mary J. Blige, Mudbound... Man, I hate to be that guy, but Blige's turn here didn't resonate with me on a level that said Oscar worthy. She does nothing to hurt the film, but never stands out in any meaningful way, say in the way Naomie Harris did in last year's Moonlight. That's my opinion; your mileage may vary.
The One That Got Away - Bria Vinaite, The Florida Project... Instagram model Vinaite, with no formal acting training to fall back on, is fantastic as the young mother who manages to survive by making all of the wrong choices for her and her young daughter. She had no right to be this good in the role.
Willem Dafoe, The Florida Project
Woody Harrelson, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Sam Rockwell, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Christopher Plummer, All the Money in the World
Richard Jenkins, The Shape of Water
A lot of people were expecting to see Armie Hammer get some love for his role in Call Me By Your Name, but Woody Harrelson picks up the nomination instead. The remaining field was mostly expected.
Get Lost - Woody Harrelson, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri... Look, Harrelson is fine here, but he isn't even in the same discussion as his co-stars, McDormund and Rockwell, who are playing on another level.
The One That Got Away - John Boyega, Detroit... Kathryn Bigelow's telling of the race riots in 1967 Detroit was largely forgotten, and panned in some circles for having a white woman tell the story of a decidedly Black experience. But Boyega is the heart and soul of the film, forced to play both sides of a very thin coin in the tensest of situations.
Guillermo Del Toro, The Shape of Water
Christopher Nolan, Dunkirk
Paul Thomas Anderson, Phantom Thread
Greta Gerwig, Lady Bird
Jordan Peele, Get Out
Most Significant - Jordan Peele, Get Out... Peele is the fifth African American nominated for Best Director in the 90 year history of the Oscars. None of them have won.
Most Significant, Part 2 - Greta Gerwig, Lady Bird... Gerwig is the fifth woman nominated for Best Director in the 90 year history of the Oscars. Only Kathryn Bigelow has won.
Get Lost - No one. All nominees are worthy of the acclaim.
The One That Got Away - Sean Baker, The Florida Project... Baker is a voice to be reckoned with in the coming years. The Florida Project (if you couldn't tell my love for it already), is such a powerful glimpse into the seedy, poverty ridden class of people living right in the shadows of Walt Disney World.

New Years Eve in Second Life has always been a special holiday for me. Ten years ago, I had watched a news special about the then new and interesting virtual world, and decided to take it for a whirl. I wanted an experience different than that of my experience as a gay man in America, so I created a female avatar … and stepped foot into this new world.
After the requisite adventure on Orientation Island, I was spit out onto Periwinkle Station, then an infohub where new residents were unceremoniously dumped (Periwinkle Station still looks much like it did ten years ago, but is no longer an official infohub for SL). True to the worst of the rumors, I was immediately attacked by a random griefer who kept bumping into me screaming "SEX SEX SEX!" Let us say that it was in this moment, I became expert at navigating in Second Life.
My first night in SL was a little disorienting. I managed to walk into a forest, and my screen seemed literally black until I bumped into a house. I found a main road and started walking down it – illuminated only by the moonlight. It wasn't the magic I had been promised from the news piece, and I almost logged out for good … until I saw this beautiful woman, almost like a full-sized fairy – floating by a hillside. Her dress was iridescent … and seemed as if she owned the night.
She IM'd me. She didn't have to. I'm sure I looked like standard-issue female newbie. She welcomed me to Second Life, and asked if I needed anything … and after a few lessons on teleporting and shopping … I was on my way, never to see her again.
The next day, I decided to change my name, so I dumped Miss Original for another madame with a more sultry name and began building a life other than my one in the Real. Nearly a year later, after a series of disastrous relationships and a faltering business, I decided to match my RL anatomy and created Phan. My female marionette went into retirement … mostly.
While Philip Rosedale and his team were trying to figure out why SL wasn't turning into Web 2.0, Second Life was and is an alternative reality for the rest of us to grow and learn, to love and be loved, to make families of choice, to laugh … to cry. And that is what it has meant to me. I felt stagnant in my RL job – SL gave me the courage and motivation to complete my education and start a career track in an industry I had stalled in ten years earlier. It has helped me want so much more in my RL … some things I've since attained, and some things I'm still sorting out. Although it has easily been a place for me to hide from my RL problems and issues … it never allows itself to be just that. It encourages me to grow, to discover, and mostly I do … the unknown vein of precious metal being myself, my spirit, my psyche, and the rest of my realities and needs.
2016 has been a crossroads for me in so many ways. Second Life has both comforted me and exacerbated some of the things I'm still working on. But, it has kept those needful things on the plate – even when I just wanted to cover my head and hide.
A friend of mine told me that 2016 is a year of ending, and it has seemed that way with the death of so many cultural icons, a critical election, and with the looming threat of Project Sansar – scheduled to open in just a few short months. I have no clue what is going to happen in 2017 … but I know things will change, and I hope SL will continue to be here to help guide me through it … to understand it … and to see how I can apply it in positive ways in my very real life on the other side of this screen.
Happy New Year!

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common form of chronic lung disease found in every part across the world. It is the abbreviation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder. Pulmonary refer to lungs. It includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Here our focal point is Emphysema.
Emphysema is a chronic progressive disease of lung. It is caused by destruction of tissue surrounding air sacs (alveoli) in lungs. Due to this, alveoli cannot retain air inside them ultimately leading to shortness of breath.
Major causes include pollution and smoking.
Patients undergo lack of oxygen and surplus of carbon dioxide in lungs. Patient exhibit shortness of breath. Symptoms typically get increased by physical activity. Ultimately it will occur after any physical effort. Afterward the patient may complain of rapid breathing. They can also lose weight. The anteroposterior diameter of chest could increase (barrel chest).
Homeopathy offers helpful role in cases of Emphysema. Homeopathy can control further destruction of the tissues in lungs. In addition it enhances body's immunity. Thus symptomatic relief and prevention of complication are main achievement by homeopathy.
In severe cases supplementary oxygen may be beneficial. In case of infection Homeopathy can also reduce need for bronchodilators, cortisone and antibiotics.
It is our mission to provide each patient the best care in a kind, honest and compassionate manner."

Lisa Overton Joins LSA as Staff Attorney in the Birmingham Office
Legal Services Alabama (LSA) welcomes Lisa Overton to its legal team.
Overton, who began with LSA as a Staff Attorney on Oct. 10, believes her experience will aid in her work for LSA.
"I'm learning a lot in terms of subject areas," Overton said, who worked as a DHR Attorney in Huntsville. "My experience in local government might be a benefit in understanding inner workings of the services – county and DHR matters. I can contribute from the standpoint of the government side – helping our clients based on that internal knowledge that I have."
A native of Indianapolis, Overton attended Butler University, where she received a bachelor's degree in Sociology. Overton also attended Law School at Indiana University, Bloomington. Overton practiced in Greenville, NC until 2014, before moving to Huntsville to work in municipal and civil litigation, in the same year.
Being a lawyer, Overton stated, was something she never intended to be initially.
"I took a course while at Butler and my professor was a Judge," she said. "I was so inspired and moved. The class addressed social issues. I became really interested. Law has the ability to influence social change, even if society is not ready for it. Thereafter, I decided to go to Law School."
While in Law School, Overton stated she enjoyed courses that pertained to Domestic Violence Law and Children of the Law. Starting her career in Social Services – representing the indigent, Overton and her family moved to Birmingham in July.
Overton believes a background in Sociology is helpful, especially when assessing client needs.
"It really prepares you for dealing with people in lots of different circumstances, and enhances your compassion and relatability," she said.

Majid Majidi is an acclaimed Iranian actor, writer and filmmaker. In 1998, Majidi directed the film Children of Heaven, which was nominated for Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Though it lost to the Italian film Life Is Beautiful by Roberto Benigni, Children of Heaven was the first Iranian film to have been nominated by the Academy. Majidi has directed several other feature films since Children of Heaven: The Color of Paradise (2000), Baran (2001), and The Willow Tree (2005) among others. He shot his most recent film, Beyond The Clouds in India and set it in India's largest slum, Mumbai's Dharavi. Starring Shahid Kapoor's brother Ishaan Khatter and Malayalam actress Malavika Mohanan, the slice of life film has been winking accolades over the festival circuit. The film is due for theatrical release this Friday and Majidi was in town to promote the film when Filmfare caught up with him. Excerpts from a freewheeling interview with the master who is celebrating his birthday tomorrow...
Your birthday falls April 17. How are you going to celebrate it. Any special plans since you are in India?
I never have plans for my birthday. I think as a good sign that my film is going to release nearer to my birthday.
What's your fondest birthday memory?
Honestly, I have never thought about it like this at all. But seeing my birthday year by year, I feel life is passing very fast. I say, 'Stop, I have a lot left to do' (Laughs). Honestly, when you reminded me it would be my birthday soon I was feeling like if I could delay it for some months (Laughs). You know they always say that age is just a number but anyway it will have its own effect on you. Some days I ask myself that I live to work so why should my age increase like this? (Laughs). So, because thirty is the best age to make a film as you're well-rounded by that age I always think that I should always be just thirty years old. So, I lock it between thirty to thirty-five years. I don't like the rest (Laughs). To think about my birthday and all those things... It's better to forget it.
At what age you were introduced to films? What are your early memories of cinema?
I was very interested in theatre at the beginning of high school. When I was thirteen-fourteen years old, I used to play parts in school plays. Year by year it got more serious. I wanted to enroll in the drama school of the university and I started working in theatre. That world of theatre is very limited, it's a closed world. I felt cinema has more power. I was studying theatre but my thinking went towards cinema. I got interested in cinema when I turned twenty. And I started in cinema with short films and acting to experience cinema. I started experimental cinema And we had a team that I started and I used to act for them and I acted for some feature films too which became successful feature films. Two of those films became really big successes. I must have been twenty five then. So, this made other producers offer me acting assignments but I never liked that. Even those days when I was acting it was just for the experience. And I left the acting world very early. I was scared to get older and remain in acting world. I never liked it because I wanted to create my own world, not to act in others' world. So, I left acting at a time when I had a lot of offers, from which I could have made a lot of money. On the other hand there was no money to be had for filmmaking. I had to find people to produce and finance my projects. I was tempted to act to earn money to make my films with that money but I was scared that if I go to that world, I won't be able to come back to direction. I started to make short films and I made some short films till I directed my first feature film in 1992-93 which was selected for Cannes and it got a good success there and at other festivals. That success become the supporting structure for making other films. Anyways those days were difficult because those were art films and not that much successful at the box-office. It changed when my third film Children of Heaven came along. I made it with a lot of difficulties. It was very difficult to shoot that film because everyone has rejected that film and no one was ready to finance it. But once I directed that film my life kind of took a jump forward. All the doors that we're closed were opened for me after that. It won around fifty-sixty international awards besides being a nominee at the Oscars. From there I can say that my path changed and now I'm here.
Do you think academic training is important for directing a film?
It's good but not necessary. You learn the basics of course but it's not the training that will make you a filmmaker. Many people must be studying filmmaking in India too but how many of them become filmmakers? How will they learn to make a film which has a lasting effect. I mean to say that there are other points which are important enough to be considered besides studying filmmaking -- like the experience of life. As much as you are involved in technical issues in universities and academics, we forget life. And we want to find everything theory wise. We don't experience, we don't live it. And right after learning these things we want to go to a studio and shoot a film but people should require other filters to make art. You know, baking a naan isn't just about the baking process -- every process, right from cultivating the seed has to be right. Because if that seed doesn't follow the proper process it becomes flawed and you can't make bread with that. First of all, you need talent. There is a big difference between talent and liking something. I see a lot of people in this industry from acting or any other field who are confused between what they like and what they are talented in. I think those who are interested in something, they can become teachers, they can teach cinema and other allied arts. They can learn good theories and they can teach them, pass them on. But talent is something different. It's not that you think you can study and become a good filmmaker. We shouldn't confuse between interest and talent. Out of every hundred people I meet who say they want to be part of the cinema industry, seventy-eighty percent are interested, but not talented. And nothing can replace experience as well. If I was at the university and if the course is for four years, for two years I should say that you study the theory but for other two years the university should send people back to the society to live, to undertand the society you are living in. You should know about your people, your culture, your society as much as you can. We have students who only know the way from their homes to the university. They don't even know their own city. When you don't know your culture, your people, your city how can you turn into a filmmaker...
Please go on...
When I talk about knowledge its not the superficial knowledge but it's to research, study and understand your subject. One of the secrets of art is to watch properly all the details because cinema is made of details. Small moments in a film are very important. When a film doesn't have good moments and doesn't care about the details it can't become a good film. Sometimes you watch a film which is structured properly but it doesn't have a soul. That lack of soul comes from lack of details. It's like you have a very nice food without any taste. We can learn the craft behind art and cinema but the important thing is the soul of the art. Sometimes, when we look at something it looks superficial. Despite having the correct physics and the mechanicals it looks robotic as it lacks soul. Likewise, in films if we just learnt the techniques -- how you should take close-ups or long shots or how to cut from one medium shot to close up but we don't learn how and why we need a closeup -- then what you make will lack soul. And that comes from experience. I say for each of your shots, you should have a philosophy and vision. Why you are going to shoot a close up here, why there is a movement between two shots -- that constitutes the soul of it. There should be soul in all of them to connect together. You should know why and where you should put your camera I mean which angle and you should understand which affect you want on your audience. You need experience to gain such insights and you should watch carefully and experience life and you should make a lot of short films and only then make a full length film.
How much do you take box-office pressure or how much do you give importance to box-office while you are making a film?
Box-office is very important. But what you sell is important as well. So, it's not that you sell yourself just for the sake of box-office numbers. You should sell tickets at large volumes but at what price? Many Indian directors who post big numbers at the box office have told me they don't like their own films. So, why do they make films? I met one of those big Indian directors of commercial cinema who told me that he came to cinema just for the love of Children of Heaven but slowly he changed his cinema. I told him that now you have become big and successful, so change your cinema now. And he said no, people expect a certain kind of cinema from me and they won't let me change. My ideology is to make a certain film that would have a good connection with audience and in a proper artistic way. Fortunately, in most of my films till now it has happened.
How did the idea of Beyond The Clouds come to you?
My aim was to make a film set in India. So, I was thinking about a subject to shoot in India. Maybe, I could have shot in some other county but the originality of this film belongs to India. And by that I mean the dramatic ambience has to be Indian.
What were the challenges you faced while making this film India as you are not familiar with the language, culture, and geography...
The biggest challenge were the locations because we have shot seventy per cent of the film in exteriors, on real locations. It was difficult to take the camera in those crowded places and to be able to capture that proper emotion that you need but fortunately, it happened. We worked in some of the most crowded places in Mumbai.
You have always said that Satyajit Ray has been a big influence on you. Which of his films do you like most?
Pather Panchali. It's a film, I feel, not just me but all the filmmakers in the world should watch again and again. Because every time you watch it, it's new and you learn something new from it. It's very difficult to make that kind of cinema but it's strange why in India we don't have that kind of cinema anymore. You are lacking that cinema. I think the fault goes to the government. They should support the young generation's urge to be able to make this kind of cinema. Bollywood has got its own way.
That's industry -- they put money, they earn money. That's correct in what they are doing but the government should produce culture and should prepare the groundwork for the new generation. There has to be parallel way there which is supported by government that the young generation could rely upon and experiment. Consider for example, the Taj Mahal.
If one of it's part breaks who is going to repair it? People? People would like to, of course. But it's the government who should put in the money. Culture is the same thing. If there is something missing or something wrong there, government should support it, put in money.
If they make ten films which don't work, it's not a problem because may be the eleventh works. They should support and prepare that path...

Travel writer Cass Chapman's favourite get-aways en famille
Finding out I was pregnant was a shock. I wanted children, absolutely. And I knew I didn't want to wait much longer to have them, but when a pregnancy test came back positive just six weeks after saying yes to a marriage proposal, I won't deny that I was less than prepared. Emotionally, I was there. And I definitely had the very best man in my life to be embarking on such a journey with. But I was at the peak of a successful and extremely enjoyable career as a travel journalist and that area of my life was far from ready for the inclusion of a baby. Surely he or she would scream from take off to landing, make jetlag all the worse and deny me entry to any half way decent hotels that hinted at pampering and fine dining? Well, fast-forward three years and I am delighted to say that I've found that to be untrue. Admittedly, not every flight has been a dream, and a trip back from Thailand in 2012 when Lola was only 16 months old took weeks to recover from, but every journey has been so worthwhile. Having her at my side has only made every trip more magical, more memorable and much, much more fun. It was just all about knowing where to go…….
Wilmington, North Carolina
I am truly biased when it comes to this twinkling city on the sea. I went to university in Wilmington and it is home to some of my very dearest memories, not to mention friends. Think Dawson's Creek, dancing sea oats and miles of coastline fringed with clapboard houses and sugar-soft sand dunes. The people are loaded with genuine Southern charm, the food is fabulous and the sunsets seem to last for hours. There are some lovely hotels, especially on Wrightsville Beach (a beautific barrier island that juts off the edge of Wilmington), but I recommend renting a beach house if you can. If you prefer the mountains, the ethereal and very inviting peaks of the Blueridge Mountains are just a drive away and just as gorgeous by summer as they are in autumn when the leaves change. This may not leap out as an obvious American vacation destination, but that only adds to its appeal as far as I'm concerned. The beach draws me back time and again and Lola loves it, too. There's something about the place that still has me on my knees in minutes, just begging for some Bluegrass and a beer.
Langkawi, Malaysia
I was lucky enough to spend a month in Malaysia when I was pregnant and I can't wait to return as a family. The whole country is awash with tiny islands, sensational food (I could eat Laksa every day for life) and amazingly family-friendly places to stay. The Malays adore children so you'll be hard pushed to find a hotel, restaurant, and even a beach bar that doesn't welcome little ones of all ages with open arms. The Four Seasons and The Andaman Hotel (both on the idyllic island of Langkawi, which is just a short flight from Kuala Lumpur) were particularly memorable for this reason. And if you choose childcare options, it's likely the lady who shows up to take care of your little one will have her own children with her, too.
The Balearic Islands, Spain
Again, I'm biased as I lived in Mallorca for some time and still return as often as I can. But there is something about these islands that bob gently off the southeastern coast of Spain that makes life so incredibly easy. Many possess memories of summers spent, albeit less than sober, in the clubs of Ibiza. But Ibiza is as great for families as it is for young hedonists. Most hotels have children's clubs, great spas and tantalizing restaurants for parents. And being Spain, you can bring children of any age into any establishment at any time of the day or night, without fear of lingering stares and grumpy guffaws. The same goes for Mallorca and Menorca. Mallorca has some amazing family hotels, most notably the Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel and Spa. Defined by fully-supervised swimming pools, babysitters on tap, views across the fishing village of Soller and out onto the Med, and wonderfully luxurious rooms in which to end the day, you can't beat this as a hotel option just a short drive from Palma airport. Menorca is smaller, flatter and far gentler in pace but, again, a fantastic island for renting a villa, some local bikes and relaxing as a family.
Southwest England
From Hampshire into Dorset, across Somerset and on into Devon and Cornwall, there are fabulous glamping, camping, hiking, walking, kiting, sailing, swimming and riding options. Whether you want a luxury yurt for the whole family or an insulated treehouse, a five-star estate with facilities for all ages or a picturesque cottage to rent, there is no shortage of sensational options really close to home. (Of course these all available across the country but the southwest is my personal favourite). The Cornwall Estate and Spa near St. Austell is particularly dear to me. With its close proximity to the Eden Project, you'll find as much outside the grounds of this gorgeous hotel as within them. You'll adore the spa, the memorable food (lots of local produce used here) and the relaxing pool. Children will love the kids' cinema, the organized treasure hunts on the grounds and the tennis.
Big Sur, California
Again, this particularly gorgeous spot on the coast of California isn't the only great place on America's western coast, but it stands out. A long and lazy drive up Highway 1 from Los Angeles in early February when Lola was still a baby proved one of our finest holidays yet. Not only did I feel like I was driving through a film set, but the sun shone every day (back home England was being smattered by storms) and this particular section of coastline is dotted with designated, cliff top spots for whale-watching. Tiny taverns intersect the winding road, all gorgeous for a light lunch in the sunshine, and evenings can be spent huddled in wonderfully welcoming B&B's along the pristine Pacific coast highway. Family-run and extremely friendly, we rocked up with a babe in arms and they met our every need, from warm milk to a cot bed, a bottle of local red wine and even, on one occasion, a spare tire. Lola may not ever remember being there but we will always remember having her with us and, though I had to get fairly creative in terms of nappy-changing spots at times, I wouldn't change that for the world.

Writers like A. N. Wilson at the Daily Mail use psycho-babble to confuse readers. The smarmy writing with over-kill phrases like "orgy of saccharine" or "artificially whipped-up sentiment" pepper a piece that makes mincemeat out of critical thinking, mainly with the false assumption that large shows of grief must be fake.
Says who: a writer who compares a beloved pop star to a crafty politician and a beautiful princess? The only thing these people have in common is this writer trying to connect their memorials with crazy dots.
The reality is this: millions truly mourn Michael Jackson (not fake mourn).
Although managers and promoters can be cagey and ruthless at times, even talented Frank Dileo and (Euro) AEG execs can't invent heartfelt grief. Get real.
The cheapest shot by Wilson is mentioning Michael as "possibly" a child molester. Gossip-mongers like Wilson propagate slander and innuendo in an attempt to appear all-knowing, and in this case, pretend to know more than a jury of non-fans who carefully deliberated over the facts and found Michael innocent.
But I guess since Wilson, the expert on "gentlemen," has also "possibly" studied the facts and feels justified to malign the memory of a star—a star that suffered as much by his own gloved hand as by the hand of any hack writer at the Daily Mail.
So, for those of you who don't care about the passing of an iconic performer–so what? Don't watch and don't participate. The millions of us who do mourn Michael will not miss you.

Hi all,
( Added Jan 3rd 2012) : For anyone new reading this thread now please do think of reading it from the start because there are a lot of articles with pictures posted near the start as well as where to go to get the snip done. Later in the thread are more stories from mums)
Just thought I'd try and put together a new thread on Tongue Tie and we could ask RC to put it up with the Sticky threads. I think one of the first threads that had a lot of info in it has fallen off the end of the threads :( So better to make a thread that we can keep as a good port of call for mums needing info.
So perhaps if mums have any experience of TT release or otherwise you could post replies and we can post articles too.
Branning, I'm not sure re older kids. Nicola O'Byrne would probably know.
Post Deleted Because: The OP deleted this post
based in Carlow
Niamh75, €150 for an LC seems quite expensive to me, but I know some do charge that. Where are you based?
Just make sure the LC you see is experienced with tongue tie. Depends where you live too as to who is accessible.
I do have a picture of my little guys TT we manged to snap if any one wants to see what they think it is here (hope this works)http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w14/niamhann75/Eireann/Ryan/picmonkey_image.jpg
Do LLL do refferals does anyone know
thanks so much I will try that, I am goiing to go armed with information to doctors, hopefully I can get her help if not I will try the coombe lc as thats were I had him . I know the LC I spoke to was 150 I will pay if needed it just it would take a week or two and after reading its more straight forward before 6 months I want it done soon
I think my milksupply is suffering now though which has me worried as well do not want to give up breastfeeding anytime soon
Well done for struggling through! Not sure about first question. Haven't heard of it getting worse but the function could be affected more as he gets older I guess. I had my sons lt & ptt released by laser in September & it cost €280 I think. Think most private fees are around that mark. Dr. Roche in clonmel snips ties & you can get that done under the public health system with a referral. Waiting time is shorter if you go private. It's usually recommended to get osteopathy or CST done after revision & that's more expense too unfortunately. Could you go to lactation midwife in hospital you had baby? They may be able to refer you without having to pay. HTH.
Hey all, this is such a great thread how I wish I found it when I had my son back in August he is 5 months old and it is an ongoing struggle to feed him.
as I am always tender after delivery when I start breastfeeding and normally last for 2 weeks or so, I put down my pain and discomfort to that rather than TT, my health nurse was first to mention TT to me on him, but I went to my doctor's office and my GP said we do not even check for TT (you all know how it goes) I did speak to a LC and she gave me great information on helping him latch and laid back breastfeeding. So I battled on through, it has been hard I am not sore anymore well sometimes. but breastfeeding is hard work at reading all the information I can say yes to so many of the signs and I think my little guy had colic symptoms up until 3 weeks ago, 10 pm to 2am were awful he would cry and cry and were as normally a boob would solve all with my other babies it did not work for him, many of our feeding sessions were with him crying coming off the nipple an trying again, he has been very slow to gain weight took 5 weeks to reach birth weight. I had hoped it would get better stupid I know, but now I am worried and need to get it sorted, I do not think he will manage solids.
I am hoping I can chat with my health nurse and see what she says or go see another GP for a referral, failing all that go to a LC and pay her and go from there,
So I have 2 questions can a TT get worse? I think his looks worse now it pulls up the flesh under his tongue and looks like a second tongue nearly
How much if (I need to get it done), does the procedure cost as I will need to sort out money asap
Thank you in advance for any information
Ithink the group may have been made secret recently by accident but try searching for Breastfeeding with Tongue-tie in Ireland and see if you can request joining. If not I can try to add you if you pm me your fb name.
Hi cmas, just had my baby's tongue tie snipped today. How can I be added to that FB support group?
My ds was 2.5 weeks too when he had procedure done. Didn't need to give pain relief. He was fine. SKin-to-skin & bm are great pain relievers. I took arnica fur a while after procedure to help it heal. Also gave him a crushed tab after the procedure. It's stressful for you. Maybe take some rescue remedy for yourself ! Ds just had a fat lip for about 2 days. Takes a little longer to see improvement with feeds. Try to have appointments with LC & cst/osteo post procedure if you can. Best of luck & hope it all goes well. There's a good private support group on Facebook if you're interested. Breastfeeding with tongue-tie in Ireland.
Have her suck on plane, anything. They sleep alot after procedure, they feed and then sleep. Some however go on nursing strike but my girl didnt. Do you have anyone with you? I'd ask airport for assistance now, its too far to walk 2.5 weeks after giving birth, ask for wheelchair now IMO. Please if you can bring someone as its hard on mammy, I was alone in cork but dd was older, I still wouldn't suggest it.
Post Deleted Because: Post mentioned a Business or Individual by name
That would be a real shame. I was with him only a few weeks back and there was no mention of anything. In the follow up questionnaire it even asked would I recommend his practice to others for lip /tongue tie probs. I hope it's not true:-)
Well according to the thread on Facebook, it was taking up too much of his practice. He is still doing his regular dental work. I hope its not a permenamt thing as I dont think there is anyone else doing lip ties on babies.
Sorry lily I can't be of help hope you have got sorted. just wondering does anyone know why Shane Curtin has stopped taking referrals?
I think Ill have to keep doing exercises and hope for the best.
And they couldn't figure it out, that's a pity. My girl spits her tongue out while feeding hence continually being noisy while feeding, I was told to massage her tongue out, in a soft rubbing trying to pull it out, which I'm bold I haven't done too much but maybe that might help you? Sorry can't be of much help, I hope it resolves as that can't be nice.
Thanks. Ive seen two private Lactation consutants and an osteopath. Were doing everything right apparenty but still having probems.
Congrats on your little baby. Did you go to a lactation consultant (I would advise private) and cranial osteopath after the surgery?
Hi Everyone
Just looking for a bit of advice. Maybe someone else has had the same experience.
We had lip and tongue tie grade 4 lasered at 6 weeks. That was six weeks ago. It was a great success with refux and wind issues. But when she feeds she is still copressing my nippes. Latch from the outside looks good so not sure what is happening inside. She has quite a high palet so maybe thats the problem.
Saw the nurse specilaist in lactation at the hospital and she basicaly said that her latch isnt going to get much better even as she gets bigger.
Been getting vasospasams and had a tear at base of nipple that woudnt heal. Aquacel dressings did the job there. Have also started expressing and supplementing just to give my nipples a break.
Have tried different positions but still ends up the same way.
Weight not an issue.
Any advice would be great. Thanks.
Hi aasling my LO had it done last Tuesday and we gave him calpol till Thursday. As he was only 7 weeks we had to give calpol per his weight - advised by doc.
Just wondering how long were your little ones sore for after laser procedure? Did your little ones find the exercises painful? Did they need calpol/ nurofen for many days? Thx n advance
You can't do self referrals to Shane anymore.you need to have baby examined and referred by a gp/clinician,a phn or lactation consultant.i had my ds done last Tuesday and he still has bad wind,bit refluxy but feeding pain free and better.going to osteo session tomorrow hoping that will help things along too
Oh that would be amazing. I rang the clinic on fri avo but no one got back to me. They may have finished up early with the b/h w/e I would have a 3 hr+ journey to get to him so wouldn't be flexible with early morning appts but would sort something out just to get seen. My little fella is a dote and great overall but is stressed feeding and getting less and less interested in bf. He slept 7 hrs straight there and it has been a battle to get him to bf for past hr. He is on and off all the time and gulping and gets loads of wind. I feel so sorry for him. Thks for getting back to me girls.
We saw Shane a couple of weeks ago. I rang the clinic thurs morning, he rang me back that evening for a phone consultation and we had the procedure Monday afternoon.
It was about 2 wks a couple of weeks ago.
Just wondering how long is Shane Curtin's waiting list? My little fella is 10 wks old & I would like to get it done soon if possible. Thks in advance
Ya, getting the procedure done doesnt automatically mean that things will be perfect right away. There is still work to be done with osteopath and lc.
Oh wow I didn't realise it could take that long for him to retrain! I suppose I also have to be prepared for it to not make any difference either.Happy star take a look at this link: http://kiddsteeth.com/articles/aerophagia_2011.pdfI feel pretty silly for not noticing ds's lip tie too, looking at pics here I now think it's quite obvious (his is a type 4 so extends right into the palate). Anyway you could have a look at the pics and check yourself, then maybe see an IBCLC? I saw nicola o'byrne and thought she was great. I've only gotten as far as diagnosis myself so far so can't give much more advice than that I'm afraid.
I feel silly but I've just realised that my LO more than likely has a lip tie. She is 13 months. It explains a lot of issues we had with feeding, colic and reflux. What can I do about this now or should I do anything? Will it affect her speech and teeth? How do I get this checked or who can I talk to? I feel bad that I didn't discover this sooner because it may have prevented a lot of heartache :(
I was told that it takes about the same time again for baby to suck correctly. As in if its done when 3 weeks old then don't be too surprised of some on off difficulty for 3 weeks. Unfortunatly 20 weeks could be a while but I suppose better sorted now the when older.
My daughter is 6 weeks. The younger they are the better apparently as they have to retrain how to suck and swallow. Hope all goes well whatever you decide.
Hi mariandav1,Oh good to know, we'll go with Shane then if we decide to do it. What age is your LO? Mine is 20 weeks already so I'm worried it will be worse for an older baby. Best of luck working on latch, I hope it all works out for you :)
Yes I did, drove down alone, had the procedure fed and drove back. Nearly fell asleep a few times on way back (hottest day of the year didnt help with my no air conditioning 18 yr old car lol) but I wasn't sure what would happen and two 2 other children it was kinda the best I could do. It went fine. She slept well after but it did grow back a bit which I blame by lack of the exercise I was told to do hence why please do it infront of him rather then doing it alone the first time. I could get it done again but we are feeding fine so kinda thinking not to bother. Good luck with your decision.
Thanks Lsmum. We're trying to decide whether to go ahead...did you have the procedure done? If so how did you find it?
Yeah dr Shane curtin in cork does them. Make sure you do the exercise he tells you to do infront of him once at least before leaving afterwards. Depending on where you live you could send photos for him. Good luck
I'm just wondering if anyone has had upper lip and posterior tongue tie divided by laser? My 4 month old ds has a class 4 upper lip tie and class 4 tongue tie and we've been advised to go with laser as they're quite thick.
Just thought I'd add these links. I think the yare useful if a mother is waiting for a snip, or just seeing how well it can work:
And this is a variation of an extremely exaggerated latch:
I've used it with one mother and it did seem to make a difference.
Thats what I was told as well salle. I met this guy and he seems to have lots of knowledge and experience. I would have gotten it done that day only he didn't have the equipment there. My lc put me off then as she hadn't heard of him. I don't fancy a trip to cork or clonmel and a waiting period. So confused, don't know what to do. Go to clonmel or cork to well known people or chance this guy.
Mariaandav, I just logged on to RC to ask the exact same question! Just found his name through googling- was surprised to learn from LC that if I wanted to get ds' ptt done it would have to be in cork or clonmel (I'm in Dublin).

Their college-bound daughter was killed by a stray bullet. Then their act of kindness touched thousands.
Chris French headed into the intensive-care unit at Washington Hospital Center last August to visit his mother, who had just had surgery. He was wearing a visor that said FAMU.
A woman in the waiting room stopped him, saying her niece had planned to start her freshman year at Florida A&M University the following week. But her niece had been struck by a stray bullet earlier in the day, and the family was anxiously awaiting news of her condition.
French realized she was talking about Jamahri Sydnor, a 17-year-old bystander who had been caught in a hail of bullets intended for someone else as she drove on a street in the District.
Subscribe to the Post Most newsletter: Today's most popular stories on The Washington Post
French, 19, who was also heading to FAMU for his freshman year, didn't know Jamahri, but he was part of a texting group of incoming students, and someone had mentioned what had happened to her.
He couldn't believe he was at the same hospital as she was. "I was shocked," he said.
French asked the family if he could pray with them. Right there in the waiting area, he bowed his head with Jamahri's mother and aunt, praying for Jamahri's full recovery, and strength for her family.
"I went home and prayed for them more," said French, who had been living in Dallas but was visiting his mother in the District for the summer.
The next morning, French arrived at the hospital to hear the news that Jamahri had died. He had never met her, but he still felt the loss of a classmate.
He decided to give the family space and not approach them. But then Jamahri's parents walked over to him.
"They stopped me and made conversation, asked if I was ready for FAMU," French said.
French told them he was eager to begin college, but he wasn't really ready to start the following week because he had to do his shopping for his dorm. He had been spending time with his mother in the hospital and he hadn't made it out for a shopping trip.
Jamahri's mother, D.C. Police Sgt. Q. Wallace, replied: "What do you need?"
"I was like, 'No, I'm fine, I just have to get to the store,' " French said.
"We have so much stuff we bought for our daughter," French recalled Wallace saying. "Please come by."
So the next day, French went to the family's home in Southeast Washington.
"Everything you'd need for a college dorm was there," French said. "There was a trunk full of stuff — pens, pencils, towels, hangers, tissues, soap, lotion — you name it."
He said he felt a little awkward because he didn't know the family well, and they were in such deep mourning. "Her father just put the stuff in my trunk and told me to take care," French said.
But then Jamahri's parents told French to come back the following day, because they had more things to give him.
"He seemed like a really nice kid," said Jamahri's father, Jerome Sydnor, a bus operator for WMATA.
French did as they asked. The next day, they gave him a pillow, a broom, a dining set and more dorm furnishings they had bought for Jamahri.
Her mother said she felt bad that the sheets were too "girly" for French, so she gave him $80 to buy sheets. Other family members gathered around and they prayed together. Then, one by one, they all opened their wallets, giving French spending money as a gesture of friendship and to help ease his transition into college.
"I left the house with about $200," French said. "It was very humbling."
Sydnor used the same word to describe French.
"He was very humble," he said. "Whatever he decides to do in life, he's going to achieve. He seems to be a bright kid."
Wallace told him to stay in touch, which he has done.
"I just talked to them last week," French said Monday. "They're taking things day by day; it's not something that you can get over."
He noted that they don't talk about themselves much when he calls.
"They more so ask about how I'm doing," he said, adding that his mother has recovered from her surgery.
Sydnor said the days after his daughter died were cloudy and hard to remember. "I miss and love my daughter so much," he said.
Although French was not able to meet Jamahri, he has heard a lot about her, and said he wishes he had known her.
"They said she was happy and joyous and was always dancing," French said. "They said she had a really big heart."
He added: "After her life ended, she is still able to affect someone else's life."
French saw a recent post on Twitter remembering Jamahri, prompting him to tell her parents' tale of generosity. Tens of thousands of people liked and commented on the post.
Her name is Jamahri Sydnor. She was shot and killed in DC days before she was to start her first day of college at @FAMU_1887 after driving through crossfire with her little cousin in the car. Her life mattered, and her story matters. #StoriesUntold pic.twitter.com/iupFaJb9M7— Omari R. Allen (@OmariRAllen) April 2, 2018
My mother was in the same ICU as Jamahri. As I was leaving, wearing a FAMU hat, her family stopped me, & told me who they were, and I prayed with them. Due to me tending to my mom post-surgery, I hadn't been able to dorm shop yet. Her family blessed me w/ EVERYTHING I needed. https://t.co/cGO0SAFuu1— Chris French (@thechrisfrench) April 3, 2018
French said he often thinks about Jamahri when he uses the furnishings her parents lovingly bought for her.
"I'm grateful when I use the stuff," he said. "It makes me think that someone went out of their way to do this for me even at such a difficult time."

Horejs v. Milford
The Supreme Court reversed the trial court's grant of partial summary judgment on David Shaner's claim for damages related to loss of consortium after his wife Laura's death due to complications with the administration of dialysis treatments, holding that the wrongful death and survival statutes enable David's claim to survive regardless of the existence of an heir. In his complaint, David sought two categories of damages contemplated by Indiana's wrongful death statute: damages related to medical hospital, funeral, and burial expenses; and additional damages including loss of consortium, loss earnings and wages, and loss of additional employment benefits. David died during litigation, leaving no immediately ascertainable heirs. In moving for partial summary judgment on the loss of consortium claim, Defendants argued that any damages in excess of medical, hospital, funeral, and burial expenses would only serve to punish Defendants because the damages would pass to the State. The trial court granted the motion, and the court of appeals affirmed. The Supreme Court reversed, holding that David's claim for survivor damages could have survived regardless of the existence of an heir, and therefore, summary judgment on this claim was inappropriate.

Hinton v. Pekin Insurance Company
Timothy Hinton died from injuries sustained in a fall from a tree stand. At the time of his fall, Timothy was wearing a fall-arrest system which included a full-body harness, tether and tree strap. Timothy had purchased the tree stand and fall-arrest system from The Sportsman's Guide, Inc. ("TSG"), in 2009. C&S Global Imports, Inc. ("C&S") had manufactured the items and marketed them to TSG. Pekin Insurance Company insured C&S at the time of Timothy's injury and death. After filing their third amended complaint, the Hintons filed a motion for partial summary judgment against Pekin, claiming Pekin waived its defenses to coverage or should have been estopped from asserting any coverage defenses. Among other arguments, the Hintons maintained that Pekin failed to defend C&S, did not file a declaratory-judgment action and allowed a default judgment against C&S. The circuit court denied the Hintons' motion. Pekin then moved for summary judgment, arguing the insurance policy excluded coverage for tree or deer stands and related equipment. The circuit court granted Pekin's motion and entered a final judgment dismissing Pekin from the suit. The Hintons appealed both of the circuit court's rulings. After review, the Mississippi Supreme Court affirmed the order denying partial summary judgment to the Hintons, the order granting summary judgment to Pekin and the final judgment dismissing Pekin from the suit.

Kocanowski v. Township of Bridgewater
Seventeen-year veteran volunteer firefighter Jennifer Kocanowski was injured in the line of duty. She applied and was denied temporary disability benefits because she did not have outside employment. In this appeal, the issue this case presented for the New Jersey Supreme Court's consideration was whether volunteer firefighters had to be employed to be eligible for temporary disability benefits under the Workers' Compensation Act, N.J.S.A. 34:15-1 to -146. The Appellate Division affirmed the compensation judge's determination that pre-injury outside employment was a necessary predicate to awarding temporary disability benefits to volunteer firefighters, holding that there "first must be an entitlement by the volunteer to payment of temporary benefits. That payment depends on proof of lost wages." The Supreme Court reversed: "While N.J.S.A. 34:15-75's language is unclear, its legislative history indicates a strong intent to provide temporary disability coverage to volunteer firefighters at the maximum compensation provided for in the Act."

In re New York City Asbestos Litigation
In this complaint alleging that Defendants were responsible for causing Mason South's mesothelioma, from which he died, the Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division's decision affirming Supreme Court's denial of Chevron Corporation's motion for summary judgment, holding that the record was insufficient to demonstrate the effectiveness of a release South signed when he settled a 1997 lawsuit he filed against Texaco Inc. and other defendants based on his exposure to asbestos. South worked shipboard as a merchant marine for almost forty years. In 1997, South and hundreds of other plaintiffs filed lawsuits against Texaco and other defendants. Texaco reached a settlement with South and other plaintiffs, and South executed a release. Two decades later, South and his wife filed this lawsuit seeking to recover for South's asbestos-related disease resulting from his asbestos exposure shipboard. In denying Chevron's motion for summary judgment, Supreme Court determined that the record did not meet Chevron's heightened burden under the Federal Employers' Liability Act and admiralty law to demonstrate that the release foreclosed the claims in the instant lawsuit. The Court of Appeals affirmed, holding (1) Chevron had the burden to prove the 1997 release's viability; and (2) the record was insufficient to demonstrate the effectiveness of the release as a matter of law.

Ruark v. Union Pacific Railroad Co.
Ruark was working for Union Pacific, using a hydraulic rail drill. Ruark was involved connecting the drill to the hydraulic lines and used the machine to drill several holes without noticing any leaking fluid or other malfunction. As he drilled the last hole, Ruark reached down to turn the drill off. Hot fluid sprayed over him, including in his eyes. Ruark declined medical attention. The supervisor sent him home to clean up. Ruark returned the following day, but did not do much work, because, he claims, "it hurt too bad." Ruark saw his regular nurse practitioner the next day, for "sinus and stomach problems." Ruark did not return to work because he was convicted of a felony unrelated to the accident. Ruark sued under the Federal Employers Liability Act, 45 U.S.C. 51-60. Ruark's prison sentence interrupted his trial preparation. The judge denied a motion for a continuance because the case had been pending for almost three years, Ruark had been well represented by his initial counsel, and Ruark's incarceration did not justify reopening exhausted deadlines and allowing Ruark to begin discovery anew. The judge allowed Ruark's trial testimony by video deposition and deposition of Ruark's treating physician. The Seventh Circuit affirmed the rejection of Ruark's theory of negligence based on res ipsa loquitur. That doctrine requires that the defendant was in control of the instrumentality that caused the injury and that the plaintiff was not also negligent; those conditions were not met. A jury could not assume that "the matter spoke for itself." The court did not abuse its discretion by refusing to grant a continuance. View "Ruark v. Union Pacific Railroad Co." on Justia Law

Hinkle Metals & Supply Company, Inc. v. Feltman
Hinkle Metals & Supply Company, Inc. ("Hinkle") was in the business of selling heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning supplies and equipment. Gabriel Butterfield was employed as a branch manager at Hinkle's Pelham office. In 2015, a GMC Sierra pickup truck owned and driven by Butterfield struck Diane Feltman as she was attempting to walk cross 20th Street in downtown Birmingham. As a result of that accident, Feltman sustained multiple injuries. Feltman sued Butterfield and Hinkle, alleging that Butterfield, while acting within the line and scope of his employment with Hinkle, had been negligent and wanton in causing the accident and that Hinkle was vicariously liable based on a theory of respondeat superior. Hinkle moved for summary judgment on all claims against it, arguing it was not vicariously liable for Butterfield's alleged actions because, it said, Butterfield was not acting within the line and scope of his employment with Hinkle at the time of the accident. The motion was denied, trial proceeded, and judgment was entered against Hinkle on vicarious liability. Hinkle's motion for judgment as a matter of law was denied, and a verdict was returned for $375,000 in favor of Butterfield. Finding that the trial court did not err in denying Hinkle's motion for judgment as a matter of law, the Alabama Supreme Court affirmed judgment in Butterfield's favor.

Wright v. Harris, et al.
Clifford Wright ("Wright"), the administrator of the estate of Mary Evelyn Wright ("Mary") appealed a summary judgment entered in favor of Dawn Reid, Phyllis Harris, and Tuwanda Worrills (collectively referred to as "the nurses"), who, during all relevant times, were employed by the Cleburne County Hospital Board, Inc., d/b/a Cleburne County Nursing Home ("the Hospital Board"). Mary complained she suffered injuries from a fall while a resident of a nursing home operated by the Hospital Board. Mary allegedly died from her injuries the day after her complaint was filed. Wright was appointed the administrator of Mary's estate and was substituted as the plaintiff. As amended, Wright's complaint asserted claims against the nurses, the Hospital Board, and various fictitiously named parties under the Alabama Medical Liability Act. Wright's claim against the Hospital Board included 13 separate allegations of negligence. Wright's claims against each of the nurses included 13 separate allegations of negligence. Additionally, Wright alleged that the Hospital Board was vicariously liable for the actions of its agents, specifically, the actions of the nurses. The Alabama Supreme Court concluded the trial court exceeded its discretion in certifying the summary judgment in favor of the nurses as a final judgment pursuant to Rule 54(b). Accordingly, the trial court's Rule 54(b) certification was invalid; this appeal was from a nonfinal judgment; and the Supreme Court dismissed the appeal. View "Wright v. Harris, et al." on Justia Law
Korman v. Princess Cruise Lines, Ltd.
The Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court's order dismissing plaintiff's complaint against Princess Cruise Lines. Plaintiff's action stemmed from injuries he suffered while he was a passenger on a cruise ship operated by Princess. The court held that the lack of a reporter's transcript did not require affirmances based on an inadequate record; although plaintiff's action was not filed "in a forum outside this state," the statutes governing forum non conveniens motions apply here to determine the enforceability of the forum selection clause; the forum selection clause in this case was mandatory and required that suit be brought in federal court; and the court rejected plaintiff's claims that the enforcement of the mandatory selection clause would be unreasonable.

Jeffreys v. Uninsured Employer's Fund
The Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the court of appeals affirming the decision of the Virginia Workers' Compensation Commission not to award Appellant benefits after he was injured while renovating a historic school building, holding that Appellant did not meet his burden of proving his statutory-employer claim for workers' compensation benefits. Appellant sought benefits against a church and its historical society, alleging that these entities were his statutory employers. The Commission denied benefits, holding that none of the defendants were Appellant's direct employer and that the church and the historical society were not Appellant's statutory employers. The court of appeals affirmed. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the Commission applied the correct legal standard and acted within its fact-finding discretion in concluding that Appellant had failed to prove that the church or the historical society were his statutory employers.

Ziniti v. New England Central Railroad, Inc.
Plaintiff Matthew Ziniti sued defendant New England Central Railroad, Inc. after he was seriously injured in a train-car collision. Plaintiff appealed the trial court's partial summary judgment ruling and the ensuing jury verdict for defendant, arguing the trial court erred by: (1) granting defendant summary judgment precluding him from presenting evidence that defendant's failure to place a crossbuck on the right side of the road at the site of the railroad crossing, or to take steps to ensure that an "advance warning" sign was present, caused or contributed to the collision; (2) denying a request for the jurors to view the crossing where the accident occurred; (3) denying his motion for a directed verdict on the railroad's negligence on account of its violation of a safety statute relating to maintenance of the railroad's right of way; and (4) denying his request for an instruction on the sudden emergency doctrine. After reviewing the trial court record, the Vermont Supreme Court rejected each of these arguments and, accordingly, affirmed the judgment in favor of defendant. View "Ziniti v.

Renting a warehouse is a necessary part of business if you have inventory that has to be stored somewhere, or if you business needs a large space for operations.
