Ask ArdnasAiram about Landmark Coffee Shop & Pancake House
I would rather pay a little more and have a nice breakfast.
Everything--pancakes, eggs, potatoes, etc. is cooked on one greasy skillet. Even muffins are fried on the skillet! The bacon, which looked cooked already, was deep fried. Yuck!
The coffee, my life's blood, was poor enough that I did not want a refill, and didn't finish what was poured. Eggs were so-so. When I asked for hot sauce, a Sriracha container was brought to me--it looked like water had been added to a mostly empty container, and shaken, as it moved like liquid. The waitress saw my skepticism and brought out another hot sauce from under the counter.
Potatoes were a bland mass--no seasonings, no crispy or browned bits. Probably the worst potatoes with breakfast I have had.
Not very clean looking, and the food wasn't very good.

Landmark was a fantastic diner experience from the moment I walked in. I was immediately seated by the hostess/waitress. I don't remember her name, but she was very attentive and had a genuine, warm smile. My breakfast came in a very timely manner and was delicious. The cost was very affordable and location was convenient. I would definitely visit Landmark again for a traditional diner breakfast!

Veggie Tales: The Fast Food Struggle | Pieces of the Week
lrabindranath / 10/21/2013
The hardest thing about being a vegetarian is eating out. Especially in a hurry. On Saturday my boyfriend and I were running late before heading downtown and had to grab something on the way. My options, to say the least, were limiting. I ended up with a grilled cheese from Tim Hortons and fries from Wendy’s. I was full, but not all together satisfied and found myself getting frustrated with my limited selection.
The only vegetarian place in the plaza (or so I’m guessing – it was called Sprouts) was closed and I was left deciding between Tim Hortons/Wendy’s and Swiss Chalet.
After doing a bit of research it appears that a few burger places offer veggie burgers (Harvey’s and A&W – aka the least common chains you come across?) and it may be possible to order Wendy’s salads without the chicken (however they don’t seem substantial enough to have before a night out…).
What are your favourite restaurants to eat meatless in a hurry?
Any tips or tricks you’ve learned along the way?

I avoid fast food chains at all costs – not only because of limited availability of vegetarian options, but also because of general unhealthy options! Go for something a little more local and fresh.
After not eating meat most of my life I have lots to say on this topic! I get sick of eating fast food veggie burgers really fast but the best ones are at burger king, Harvey’s and A&W. In a pinch most McDs will do a “grilled cheese happy meal” which is just two of the inside bun of the big mac fried up with cheese. It is surprisingly good but not very filling. On the bright side the toy usually makes me feel better. My go to fast food in Ottawa was falafel at any of the bazillion shwarma places, but it is a lot harder to come by here. When I know i’m going to be out drinking and I can’t cook a meal at home I usually go for a slice of pizza to line my tummy. Alternatively have your first drink at the Jane Bond in uptown Waterloo and go to town on their AMAZING veggie menu. Don’t ever get me started about their croutons. Heaven. We should go there sometime! <3

Awesome advice thank you so much! So tough eating out in a pinch, but luckily I love pizza too :) I’ve only heard good things about Jane Bond! Let’s go pre/post-podcast/cross stitching/event!!

HURRICANE SEASON…….Are You Prepared??????
Disasters create challenges for older adults and caregivers. In addition to the planning and basic disaster supply kit that everyone needs, you may need to make special plans.
Make lists and put your needs and the needs of the person(s) you care for in writing.
Let family, friends, and neighbors know what you need and where you will be if you plan to stay in a shelter.
Keep extra supplies (batteries, food, medications, money, etc.) on hand.
Write down: 1) emergency contact information and transportation plan; 2) detailed medical information; 3) doctors’ names, numbers, and whom to notify; and 4) medical insurance and Medicare information E.g. Medications, allergies etc.

GRG’s Eyes Opened on Claiming Grandchild on Tax Returns
Dear Margret: My adult son and his daughter (my granddaughter) live with me. I pay for most of the clothing, expenses, food, housing, and schooling. When I did my son’s taxes this year, I claimed my granddaughter on his tax return and not mine because I thought I could not claim her. Am I correct?
Margret: If they live in your home and you are paying for most of the clothing, food, expenses for the child, you have the option of claiming the grandchild on your taxes. Discuss the situation with your son and see who will have the better tax benefit. Only one of you can claim the child.
KH from Delray Beach wrote about the GRandS workshops….
“These classes open our minds and hearts to be of more help to our family. There was not enough time.”
“We need more time and more classes. These classes are vital to our life in raising our grandchildren.”
Thank You KH for your kind words!

A GRG Grandmother Picks Up Her Son from Prison
By MAR, a WPB Grandmother
Sorry to say I will miss this GRG meeting as today is “pick up” day for my son’s release from prison. It will be a long day, so hold me in your thoughts and prayers.
It will start with me arriving there at 8:30am with clothes to put on his nakedness, shoes for his bare feet and a smile on my face. Once they deliver his civvies to him and process him out, we will head for the nearest restaurant so he can eat good, normal food to his heart’s content.
Next we’re off to the Palm Beach County Sherriff’s office as he must register as a convict and list our current address. Then off to the phone store to turn his phone on (Oh yes, I must not forget to have his phone all charged and ready and pull some money out of his bank account for his empty wallet.)
Then to the Social Security Office to get his disability checks restarted. Usually a two hour wait at SSA, so he can use that time to answer all his phone mail messages from the last 10 months, then notify all his friends he is out and done with his imprisonment.
While he is there, I can begin my normal pick up of grandchildren at schools and he can call me when he is done at SSA. By this time he probably has found that little convenience store near the SSA office and bought some cigarettes, something I refused to bring with me this morning. That or he will be chewing a big wad of tobacco! If there is enough time left in the business day we will be off to the Food Stamp office so he can get food stamps and request his medical coverage be resumed as well. If it is after 4PM, we’ll have to wait till the morning and drop him off there after I get his daughter/my granddaughter to school.
Next, he has to check into South County Mental Health Unit so he can get to see a psychiatrist, his counselor, get his medications, see his case worker and get a bus pass. They will help him with long term housing (They pay for the first 6 months in a half-way house.). He has a place to stay near me for the first week or so until South County can place him.
Yes, as soon as possible, he needs to be able to attend his AA meetings and get a sponsor. I’d hoped he could process through the new Homeless Coalition that originally was suppose to be available in March, but it will not open until June or July 2012.

Imperfections are the least flattering features that can be found in each of the body typologies. The task of the Image consultant consists in recognizing and interpreting each client’s typology and their imperfections.
As a consultant, once I have analyzed all the set, I can offer you the best suiting solution for each case, as well as your needs and goals.
The bust and its imperfections
• Bulky Bust:
For this type of bust, what best works are rounded necklines, cross-over, deep V and bustier necklines. My recommendation is that you should try to play with the visual effect and balance of the volumes. For example, look for something with Japanese sleeves, which will balance the voluminous effect of your bust, and wear rather thin and long necklaces.
What you should avoid (!): thick fabrics, big lapels, round collars, turtlenecks and short sleeves. Stay clear of scarves, foulards and the sort, because they give an illusion of more volume. Avoid high waists and forget all flashy, contrasting and big prints –even if you love them–, as well as all kinds of glitter, bling, frills and flounces etc.
• Small Bust:
A small bust offers you a world of possibilities. Some of you will think that small busts must at least have some advantages!!! There’s always a bright side…
In this case, you are allowed to use everything that the voluminous bust cannot, so unleash your creativity. You may wear all kinds of necklines, except for the bustier neckline (because it makes it seem like you have put a band over you bust!). Play with draped necklines, square necklines, rounded, shawl, draped tops, large collars, frills, folded necklines, pleats and all kinds of prints, as well as scarves, foulards, flounces and statement necklaces. You see, you have it easy.
The only thing that you have to avoid is, as I have mentioned before, the bustier neckline in addition to the deep V-neckline, rib knitted fabrics that flattens. Vests may also create this smoothing effect and that does not favor you at all. For small bust, try thin and high waists, since they are a very flattering option.
Two more things about busts:
Perhaps you may wonder what to do with a high-risen bust. Well, in this case a V-neck is a good option, in addition to all those who contribute verticality, “small” lapels and long necklaces. And if instead you have a low startup or sagged bust, I recommend rounded necklines with or without volume and a good push up to help reposition the bust. Avoid small rounded collars and V-neck.
Arms and their imperfections
• Short arms:
If you have short arms, I recommend that you always look for a three-quarter sleeves and during winter you can complement them with a pair of long gloves, as this will stylize your short arms. The super long sleeves are also a good option.
As much as you may like them, forget bracelets and cuffed garments. I don’t recommend those clothes with tight and short sleeves or sleeveless, because all this will only make the short length of your arms more apparent.
• Long arms:
Regarding long arms, we must do the total opposite. Everything that helps you create the feeling of a shorter length is what works for you.
Details such as cuffs, bracelets, pleats, etc., need to help reverse the arm’s length.
Voluminous sleeves are perfect, such as blouse sleeves, ham, medieval, etc.
Legs and their imperfections
• Short legs:
Do not panic!! in this case we have several strategies we can use.
Pants with high, straight, smooth and long waists will be your best allies, but also bear stripes in mind, since they elongate the leg. Never ever wear cuffed pants.
The strategy regarding skirts will be to wear them over the knee or just above, if the legs are proportionated. For short legs, I always recommend high waists, unless you have a bulky or fallen bust, in this case we’ll play with the optical effect of balancing the volumes and colors.
For upper garments, it’s always better if they’re short and slightly notched.
As an advice, avoid baggy pants, or pirates, say no to long flared skirts, always wear low cut shoes and never buckle at the ankle.
• Long legs:
Girls with long legs are very lucky, you have almost no limitations, so enjoy the diversity that fashion offers you. Try all kinds of skirts, pants, volumes, lengths, etc .. Only you will have to be careful with the skinny pants, since it might seem that you are going on stilts and be also careful with leggings that looks like a second skin …
But as is well known that there is no accounting for taste, and some of you maybe want to shorten your long legs… In this case, low waists are a perfect way to achieve this, as well as horizontally details, ruffles, ribbons, etc.
The neck and its imperfections
We may not consider long necks as an imperfection, since it is well known that a long neck is synonymous to elegance and poise. So if you’re lucky and you have a long neck, be encouraged to wear any type of neckline or collar, such as wide collars, with Victorian design, turtleneck, with lace, stand collars etc. The square necklines or boat cleavage neckline will enhance your neck more as well as handkerchiefs, scarves, short necklaces and chokers.
If instead, you have a short neck, you should be more rigorous in your selection of collars and necklines, plus accessories. I advise necklines which give verticality such as V-necks, mao, tuxedo, runaway and small necks. Regarding jackets, it’s better if they are collarless or have a flap and small tip up. The perfect complements will be extremely long earrings and very thin and long necklaces. Do not wear closed necklines, box or turtlenecks.
To finish this block of imperfections, all that remains to go over are the waists.
• If your waist silhouette is long, you should know that wearing high empire waists are the most appropriate thing. In addition, you can wear all those details that shorten such as wide belts, coats of mail, short jackets, etc.
Do yourself a favor and remove from your wardrobe long garments and pants with volume.
• If instead your silhouette is short-waisted, you should know that upper garments will suit you better if they are slightly loose, always in one piece and notched slightly below the waist. The straight one-piece dresses, long or V-neck and vertical stripes in upper garments, are other options for your short waist.
If you need a belt in your life, please, preferably wear one that is very fine and place it on the hips. Regarding pants, better if they’re low rise.
Inestetismos del cuerpo de la mujer.
Los inestetismos son los rasgos menos favorecedores, que podemos encontrar, en cada una de las tipologías corporales.
La tarea del asesor de imagen consiste, en reconocer e interpretar cada tipología y los inestetismos de cada cliente.
Como asesor, una vez analizado el conjunto, podré ofrecerte, la solución que mejor se adapte a cada caso, necesidades y objetivos.
Inestetismos del busto.
•Busto voluminoso:
A este tipo de busto, lo que mejor le funciona son los escotes redondeados, los cruzados, de pico profundo y el escote bustier.
Mi recomendación es, que tratéis de jugar con el efecto visual y con el equilibrio de los volúmenes. Buscad por ejemplo, manga japonesa, ya que, dará equilibrio al efecto voluminoso de vuestro busto, collares finos y mas bien largos.
Que debéis evitar!! tejidos gruesos, grandes solapas, cuellos caja, cisne y manga corta. Prescindir de foulards, bufandas y similares, debido a que dan más volumen aun y se trata de evitarlo.
Fuera cinturas altas y olvidaros de los estampados llamativos o contrastados y grandes, por muy locas que os vuelvan, así como, todo tipo de brillos e incrustaciones, volantes etc..
•Busto pequeño:
El busto pequeño nos ofrece un mundo de posibilidades, algunas pensareis.. alguna ventaja debía de tener, siempre hay un lado positivo chicas…
En este caso, podréis usar todo lo que el busto voluminoso no permite, así que da rienda suelta a vuestra creatividad.
Todo tipo de escotes, excepto el escote bustier, que parecerá que os habéis puesto una venda, escote drapeado, escote cuadrado, redondeados, cuello chal, tops drapeados, cuellos grandes, volantes, escotes cruzados, lorzas y todo tipo de estampados, además de las bufandas, foulards, chorreras y collares grandes. Como veis, lo tenéis muy fácil.
Lo único a evitar además del bustier será, el escote de pico profundo, tejidos como el punto con canale porque aplana y los chalecos, que también crean este efecto de liso y sin volumen, que no os favorece. Para el busto pequeño las cinturas y talles altos, son una opción muy favorecedora.
Dos cosas más sobre los bustos.
Quizás os preguntaréis que hacer con un busto con inicio alto!! Pues bien, en este caso un escote de pico, si es una opción, además de todos aquellos que aporten verticalidad, solapas “pequeñas” y collares largos.
Y si por el contrario tenéis un busto de inicio bajo o caído!! os recomiendo escotes redondeados con y sin volumen, y un buen push up, que ayude a reposicionar el busto. Descartaremos el cuello caja y los de pico.
Los brazos y sus inestetismos.
•Brazos cortos:
Si tienes los brazos cortos, te propongo que busques siempre una manga tres cuartos y en invierno compleméntala con un guante largo, ya que, esto estilizará tu brazo corto. Las mangas súper largas también son una buena opción.
Por mucho que te gusten, olvídate de las pulseras y las prendas con puños. Te desaconsejo totalmente, aquellas prendas con mangas ajustadas, cortas o sin mangas, porque todo esto hará más evidente la escasa longitud de tus brazos.
•Brazos largos:
En los brazos largos debemos jugar totalmente en sentido contrario, todo aquello que nos ayude a crear sensación, de que acortamos la longitud, es lo que nos funciona.
Necesitáis detalles que irrumpan en sentido contrario la longitud del brazo, como los puños, brazaletes, lorzas, etc. Las mangas con volumen son perfectas, como las ablusadas, jamón, medieval, etc.
Inestetismos de las piernas.
•Piernas cortas:
Que no cunda el pánico, en este caso haremos uso de varías estrategias.
Los pantalones con cintura alta, rectos, lisos y largos serán vuestros mejores aliados, pero si además llevan raya, conseguiremos ampliar el efectos de longitud de la pierna corta. Nunca pantalón con vuelta abajo.
Para las faldas, la estrategia será la de usar el largo a la altura de la rodilla o justo por encima, si las piernas son proporcionadas. Con piernas cortas, yo te recomiendo siempre, la cintura alta excepto si tienes un pecho voluminoso y caído, aquí jugaremos con el efecto óptico sobre equilibrio de los volúmenes y los colores.
Para las prendas superiores, siempre mejor cortas y un poco entalladas.
A modo de consejo, no a pantalones anchos, ni piratas, no a faldas largas con vuelo y los zapatos siempre escotados y que no se abrochen en el tobillo.
•Piernas largas:
Chicas sois muy afortunadas, no tenéis casi limitaciones así que disfrutad de la diversidad que la moda os ofrece. Probad todo tipo de faldas, pantalones, volúmenes, largos, etc.. Únicamente deberéis tener cuidado con los pitillo, pudiera parecer que vais en unos zancos y los leggings efecto segunda piel…
Pero como es bien sabido, hay gustos para todo y algunas querréis acortar vuestras larguísimas piernas!! En este caso, la cintura baja es un modo perfecto, los detalles en sentido horizontal, junto con volantes, ribetes, etc. ayudarán en vuestra misión.
El cuello y sus inestetismos.
Cuando el cuello es largo, podríamos considerar que no estamos ante un inestetismo, ya que es bien sabido que el cuello largo es sinónimo de elegancia y porte. Por lo tanto si eres afortunada y tienes un cuello largo, anímate a llevar cualquier tipo de escote o cuello,como cuellos amplios, con diseño como el victoriano, cuello cisne, con lazada, chimenea, etc. Los escotes cuadrados o barco, serán los que mas realcen tu cuello, así como los pañuelos, foulards, collares cortos y las gargantillas.
Por el contrario, si tienes un cuello corto, deberás ser más rigurosa en tu selección de cuellos y escotes, además de los complementos. Os aconsejo escotes que os den verticalidad como los de pico, túnica, esmoquin, desbocado y cuellos pequeños. Las chaquetas, mejor sin cuello o con solapa de punta hacia arriba y pequeña. Los complementos perfectos, serán pendientes largos y collares muy finos y largos..
No a los escotes cerrados, cisne o caja.
Para rematar este bloque de inistetismos, solo nos queda por ver, los talles.
•Si tu silueta es de talle largo, has de saber que las prendas de entallado alto, tipo imperio son las más apropiadas. Además, de todos aquellos detalles que acorten, como los cinturones anchos, coseletes, chaquetas cortas, etc.
Hazte un favor y retira de tu armario las prendas largas y los pantalones con volumen.
•Si por el contrario tu silueta es de talle corto, debes de saber, que las prendas superiores te sentaran mejor si son ligeramente holgadas, siempre de una sola pieza y ligeramente entalladas por debajo de la cintura. Los vestidos rectos de una sola pieza, los talles largos o en pico y las rayas verticales en prendas superiores, son otras opciones para tu talle corto.
Si necesitas un cinturón en tu vida, preferiblemente que sea finísimo y colócalo sobre la cadera, lo mismo con los pantalones, mejor de talle bajo.

Random technical bits and thoughts: Futex - fast user space Mutex
Futexes from functionality perspective same as other Mutex mechanisms in Linux user space processes, except that these are faster. I am not aware of any performance reports. I would love to put reference to any performance reports in this blog. Let me know.
Futex can be used for both Mutex purposes as well as for synchronizing the processing across multiple threads/processes. They can be used in place of read/write mutexes and semaphores. Futex also can be used in place of 'pthreads conditional vairables' for synchronization. Like semaphores, Futexes also can be used across threads or across processes. Just for information, threads within a process can be run in different CPU contexts simultaneously. That is, thread1 in a process may be run under Core1 while thread2 is being executed in core2 context. But a given thread at any time runs only one core context.
Futex mechanism internally makes use of Kernel waitqueue mechanism. 'Wait Queues' are used to make thread/process wait and wake the thread/process.
Futex does not replace spinlock/spinunlock mechanism. Spinlock/spinunlock mechanism is good for locking very small portion of the code. In general my preference is use mutex mechanism which is fast and make the caller sleep when there is contention so that CPU can execute some other processing. As you all know spinlock/unlock mechanism spins the caller until contention is gone. It is waste of cycles. But, it is useful when you know that 99% of the time there is no contention and you need very fast mutex mechanism.
Please check the Futex man page on in depth description of Futex system call. You can google for it or use this link here. I am copying some text from this man page here.
Each futex works on a integer variable. Main operations are FUTEX_WAIT and FUTEX_WAKE. Futex call syntax is given below.
int futex(int *uaddr, int op, int val, struct timespec *timeout, int *uaddr2, int val3)
uaddr : Pointer to the integer variable.
val: value of the integer variable
op: Takes operation code such as FUTEX_WAIT and FUTEX_WAKE: Even though there are other operations supported by futex call, this discussions limits itself to FUTEX_WAIT and FUTEX_WAKE. My understanding other operations except for FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE are buggy.
timeout: Maximum time to wait when futex is issued with FUTEX_WAIT. If 'wakeup' does not happen within this time given by timeout, call returns with error ETIMEDOUT.
One important and useful point to consider in FUTEX_WAIT operation is the check it does between *uaddr and val. If both of these values are not same, futex with FUTEX_WAIT operation returns immediately. This property can be used by external logic to speed up the Mutex operation.
Since contention is not common in real applications, Futex assume that kernel waitqueue mechanism is used when there is contention. That is, futex call is expected to be made only when necessary. The property of FUTEX_WAIT operation described above comes in handy.
Let us define two functions. Futex_Lock(int *FutexVal) and Futex_Unlock(int *FutexVal).
Lock and Unlock logic should meet following requirements:
Must ensure that critical code section is not entered by more than one thread.
Must ensure that FUTEX_WAIT operation uses Kernel Wait Queue mechanism only when the lock is taken by somebody before.
Should ensure that FUTEX_WAKE operation is issued only when there are waiters.
Ofcourse, lock/unlock operation is fast.
Article on "Futexes are tricky" by Redhat really gave me the perspective on how to work with Futexes. Three state concept was taken from this paper. Please see the full article here.
#define FLOCK_FREE 0
#define FLOCK_ONE_ACTIVE_USER 1
#define FLOCK_MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_USERS 2
Futex_Lock(int *futexVal)
/** If there are no users (threads) accessing the critical section, proceed further **/
if (fatomic_cmp_and_exchange (futexVal, FLOCK_FREE, FLOCK_ONE_ACTIVE_USER) == FLOCK_ONE_ACTIVE_USER )
/** If control comes here means there is at least one active user **/
/** FutexVal has either FLOCK_ONE_ACTIVE_USER value or FLOCK_MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_USERS value **/
while ( fatomic_exchange(futexVal, FLOCK_MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_USERS) != FLOCK_FREE) /** If LOCK becomes free in the mean time, get out **/
if ( futex(futexVal, FUTEX_WAIT, FLOCK_MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_USERS, NULL, NULL,0) == 0 ) /** This call waits, it returns 0 when somebody wakes it up. In the mean time if lock free was called by somebody else, it returns with some other return value and goes to the loop again **/
/** control comes here, when the lock is free, but the value is set to FLOCK_MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_USERS. In this case, even though lock is free FLOCK_WAKE would be called which is un-necessary, but it is okay as it does not harm and this condition happens very rarely. **/
Futex_UnLock(int *futexVal)
If there is only one active user, there is no need to wake up as that thread already got the lock. Atomically set the futex val to FLOCK_FREE and get hold of previous value **/
if ( fatomic_exchange(futexVal, FLOCK_FREE) != FLOCK_ONE_ACTIVE_USER)
futex(futexVal, FUTEX_WAKE, 1, NULL, NULL, 0); Wake one waiter.
fatomic_compare_and_exchange(ptr, old, new) is expected to change the *ptr to new if *ptr matches with old. It returns the new *ptr value.
fatomic_exchange (ptr, val): It puts val in *ptr and returns the old *ptr value.
For completeness, I am copying some code piece from Linux source code for these atomic operations on PPC.
unsigned long fatomic_compare_and_exchange(void *addr, unsigned long old,
unsigned long new)
unsigned int old_val;
"1:\t" "lwarx %0,0,%1\n" /* load and reserve, copy current *addr to old_val */
"cmpd %0,%3\n" /* Compare old_val with old argument **/
"bne 2f\n" /* If both are not equal, get out **/
"stwcx. %2,0,%1\n" /* Else, put new value in *addr */
"bne- 1b\n" /* Go back and do above if reservation fails */
: "=&r"(old_val)
: "r"(addr), "r"((unsigned int)new),
"r"((unsigned int)old)
unsigned long fatomic_exchange(void *addr, unsigned long val)
"1:\t" "lwarx %0,0,%1\n" /* load and reserve, copy *addr into result */
"stwcx. %2,0,%1\n" /* Store val into *addr */
"bne- 1b\n" /* Go back and retry if reservation fails in between*/
: "=&r"(result)
: "r"(addr), "r"(val)
Whenever you require to protection some critical section, simply do following:
Declare one integer variable, say
int futexval = FLOCK_FREE;
Futex_Lock(&futexval);
.... critical section ...
Futex_Unlock(&futexval);

Pirates | CastColvCash - The Curse Breakers of the Future
Tagged: Pirates	April 2, 2011
Cubs Move into Tie for 2nd with Comeback Victory over Pittsburgh	The Cubs moved into a tie for 2nd, and potentially 1st by the end of action tonight, on Saturday with a comeback 5-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates at Wrigley Field. Pittsburgh opened up the scoring in the first with a Pedro Alvarez single into Right Field scoring Jose Tabata. Tabata would score again on a Neil Walker double in the 3rd before Garrett Jones hit a solo shot, chasing Carlos Zambrano, to make it a 3-0 ballgame in Pittsburgh’s favor.

About Chiropractic | Upper Cervical Studies
The history of chiropractic as a profession is just like your average best seller novel, full of betrayal, rivalry, endless family scuffles and the ever present skeletons in the closet (pun intended). I’d like to go through the history of this 115 year profession but the facts are negotiable, someone will get left out, feelings will get hurt and too many people will chime in with all sorts of addendum. We will instead avoid all this and stick to the founders.
The man who started it all, Daniel David Palmer (DD for short). Interesting man. Nutty as a fruitcake, but then what genius isn’t? You can read the juicy stuff on his wiki. Suffice it for our purposes to say that his is the “Founder” of the chiropractic profession that originates in 1895 in the midwestern town of Davenport Iowa. The story goes that he noticed something abnormal about the “2nd dorsal vertebra” of a near-deaf custodian in the building he taught in. Attempting to correct what he saw by using his hands to push the bone in the direction he thought was correct, he inadvertently restored the hearing of this gentleman. That is what has come to be know as the first adjustment. DD is highly regarded throughout all chiropractic. DD had a son named BJ and the eccentric gene was past on.
BJ Palmer is know throughout chiropractic as the “Developer” of the profession. He is the one responsible for really getting chiropractic off the ground. He was very philosophically minded but produced clinical results unlike any other of his time, or any time for that matter. BJ pioneered the use of many instruments that gave clear objective findings, including x-ray. He wrote a series of textbooks named The Green Books that thoroughly explain the science and philosophy of chiropractic. His wiki is here.
Based on this quick and dirty assessment of the chiropractic profession, why would anyone willing go to see one of these doctors? Well, like many other things, the proof is in the pudding. It doesn’t matter that the founders were, uh, unconventional – what matters is that people have received strength and wellness from a chiropractor’s hands and will continue receiving health. So often it’s the people who have “tried everything else” or go in as a last option only to find that such a simple concept made all the difference.
Chiropractic care is a health science that deals with the individual patient as a whole. A symptom, to a chiropractor, is like an alarm going off letting the person know that there is something amiss in the body. A chiropractor is concerned with discovering why a person is in a state of disease and correcting that problem to allow the body heal itself.
Our brain is in control and relies on information or intelligence gathered from the body to keep everything regulated. When information is not transmitted or received, the result is loss of function. Think of someone who is paraplegic. They can no longer move their lower extremities because the communication lines have been disrupted between the brain and body. There are instances that people regain partial control of limbs because communication has been restored to a degree. This is a vivid example and there are varying degrees that communication can be disrupted. Chances are that unless something big happens you will not notice the decreasing function until it becomes severe and have already lost some function.
Regular checkups to a chiropractor, like those to the dentist, may prevent your body from deteriorating. Chiropractors understand that some communication can easily be restored my adjusting problematic vertebra that are in a state of subluxation or misalignment.
What Makes Upper Cervical Chiropractors Different?
Upper cervical chiropractors understand the relationship of this communication often gets broken down at the upper part of the neck, the area of the first two bones in your neck named atlas and axis. Due to the configuration of these two bones, it takes some careful planning and skilled maneuvering to get these to line up the way they were meant to be and reestablish disrupted communication without interfering with others.
Most chiropractors will adjust this segment of the neck because they too understand it’s importance. However, if they do not take the necessary steps to determine what needs to be done to deliver a positive adjustment, meaning if they do not take specific x-rays and thoroughly evaluate them, they may not fully understand the relationship of the two bones in that unique individual. There are several different techniques that will correct this misalignment, but most chiropractors don’t take the time to learn and apply them in addition to their other care.
I encourage you while you are visiting this blog to visit some of the informational websites provided to learn more. If there is a specific condition you want to know about take a look at the research repositories. Upper cervical care is effective to so many different conditions because it does not separate the body into different components. Upper cervical care reestablishes clear communication so the body can take care of whatever is going on.

i heard on the news that they are considering closing the entire west side of FCP for at least this summer. that is not good. good news is that the creek will be a trickle of itself by august. we can jump over the rocks by then. hell, i'll ford the stream if i had to. you can't stop the bikers, eh.

research: tivozanib, new VEGF inhibitor in clinical trials | Donna Peach

research: tivozanib, new VEGF inhibitor in clinical trials
A drug in Phase I clinical trials is showing good results in treatment for metastatic breast cancer when combined with paclitaxel. AVEO Pharmaceutical Company’s tivozanib is a selective VEGF receptor inhibitor. Dr. Erica L. Mayer, medical oncologist at the Breast Oncology Center, Dana-Farber Institute, presented a poster session indicating positive results for tivozanib, combined with Taxol®, including progression-free survival. Since Phase I demonstrated safety for doses up to full dosage, we should be watching for announcements of Phase II studies. Additionally, Phase I clinical trials of tivozanib have reported no severe side effects.
One wonders if this could be the next drug of promise to fill the gap left by the exit of Avastin®.
Time for more reading and talking to our oncologists.
