The body is an intricate machine, and normally all the organs and functions work together to keep you healthy. But doctors need to check now and then to ensure everything is working as it should — and an external exam won't suffice.
"Blood tests are one of the best ways for a physician to gain information about your health," said Anna Friemann of Hamilton Township. She is a nurse in the Level II Neuro Trauma Center at Community Medical Center, Scranton.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises having routine blood tests done somewhere around 35 and 40 years old. This gives the doctor a starting point to monitor any changes as you get older.
"At around the age of 50, there are specific blood tests the doctor should order on a yearly basis, and if you haven't had the tests, you should ask the physician about having them," she said.
When the doctor orders the lab to run a complete series of tests, you can find out about the status of the liver, the thyroid, the blood cholesterol as well as the blood sugar, Friemann said.
The following blood chemistry tests require a single sample of blood serum, which may require several vials of blood that can be used to run a series of tests quickly and inexpensively.
r Complete Blood Count is the most common test and is usually ordered as part of a complete physical examination. CBC measures the number, size and shape of the types of cells in the blood.
r Glucose test can indicate diabetes if the level is high, or hypoglycemia if it is low. A fasting glucose of less than 100 is normal, a level of 100 to 125 is abnormal and called "impaired glucose tolerance" and a level of 126 or greater means diabetes.
r Blood Urea Nitrogen and creatinine tests see if the kidneys are working normally and measures the amount of nitrogen in blood that comes from the waste product urea. Urea is made when protein is broken down in the body. Urea is made in the liver and passed out of the body in the urine. If the kidneys are not able to remove urea from the blood normally, the BUN level rises.
The level of creatinine in the blood also tells how well the kidneys are working. A high creatinine level may mean the kidneys are not working properly. BUN and creatinine tests can be used together to find the BUN-to-creatinine ratio that tells if the kidneys are working properly.
r Sodium, potassium and chloride tests are especially important when taking diuretics, known as water pills. The tests measure the blood salts or electrolytes.
r Uric Acid test measures the level of acid, a waste product of all cells. An elevated level could mean kidney disease or gout.
r Albumin test measures the blood protein the liver produces. A low albumin count can be a sign of liver or kidney disease.
r Globulin test measures the level of blood protein produced by the immune system. A high level can point to chronic inflammation, infection or blood disorders, such as multiple myeloma.
r Calcium test has nothing to do with how much calcium is in the bones. It is a component of the blood that helps all the cells in the body function normally. A high count can point to a disorder called hyperparathyroidism, which predisposes people to kidney stones and low bone density.
r Serum Glutamine Pyruvic Transaminase test measures an enzyme normally present in liver and heart cells. SGPT is released into the blood when the liver or heart is damaged. Elevated levels of SGPT can happen as a result of a heart attack or from viral hepatitis.
r Lactate Dehydrogenase test measures an enzyme produced by many cells of the body. If LDH is extremely high, it can indicate a malignancy, and the doctor will do additional tests to rule this out.
r Bilirubin test measures a chemical in bile that gives it the yellow color. If the bile passages from the liver to the intestine are blocked, the bilirubin level will be high. Possible causes include gallstones and liver disease.
r Gamma Glutamyl Transpeptidase test measures the amount of enzyme produced by the liver. Obesity and excessive alcohol use are the most common reasons it can be mildly increased. It will also be elevated when there is blockage of bile and with liver disease.
r Blood fats or blood lipids test identifies lipids, often listed together in a separate "panel" on the blood chemistry report as Low Density Lipoprotein and High Density Lipoprotein. The total cholesterol is the sum of the LDL and HDL. High total cholesterol levels are linked to heart disease. The lower the total cholesterol the better. A total below 200 is desirable.
HDL is the good cholesterol. The more of it, the better. Ideally, the HDL cholesterol should be at least 30 percent of the total amount. In men, an HDL greater than 40 is normal; in women, an HDL greater than 50 is normal.
LDL is the bad cholesterol. A high LDL puts the patient at risk for heart disease, and the doctor will suggest diet and often medication to get the LDL cholesterol below 130. If diabetes or heart disease is present, the treatment goal for LDL cholesterol should be below 100.
Triglycerides are the other form of fat in the blood. The level will be much higher after a meal. If the level is out of range, it should be repeated after an overnight fast. Elevated levels increase the risk of heart disease and could be a sign of early diabetes. Ideally, they should be under 150.
r Thyroid function test can diagnose an underactive thyroid, a common condition in women over age 50. It also measures the level of two hormones produced by the thyroid glands: thyroxine 3 (T3) and thyroxine 4 (T4). Both regulate the metabolism.
The brain keeps levels normal by sending thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) to the thyroid gland if the T3 and T4 are low. The TSH level is the best indicator of the condition of the thyroid and the effects of thyroid medication.
For example, if the thyroid hormone levels (T3 and T4) are low, the TSH level will be high. If the thyroid hormone levels are too high, then the TSH level will be low or immeasurable.
r C-reactive protein test measures blood inflammation and marker of future heart disease risk. The test is recommended for women with a waist circumference over 35 inches because of increased risk for metabolic syndrome and heart disease.
r Prostate-Specific Antigen test measures the prostate-specific protein produced by cells of the prostate gland. A high PSA can mean prostate cancer or prostate inflammation.

IIRC 2020 Presentation
Indigenous language learning and revitalization work is necessarily relational and often territorially-based. Across Canada, the US, and the world, a large number of Indigenous communities, organizations, and individuals are working hard to keep their languages alive and bring them back into everyday use through early childhood and school-based immersion programs, language classes for various ages, curriculum, and recording projects with proficient speakers, amongst a myriad of other strategies. Indigenous language revitalization (ILR) work often fights for space on the "societal agenda" and even within communities themselves to be a priority. The pandemic crisis that hit in March of 2020 had the potential to silence this language work and reduce it to be seen as non-critical activity, once again. The majority of language work is face-to-face and therefore had to halt immediately for the safety of our speakers, learners, and communities at large.
While language workers took a moment to catch their breath amongst the rapid changes and the new and real dangers in their midst, what Indigenous peoples do and have always done in the face of danger and adversity is adapt. Indigenous communities quickly began to create digital and other visual resources in the languages for teaching community members about the dangers of the new virus as well as protective measures, such as proper handwashing technique social media posters and videos. In video-chats with speakers, learners asked how to say "toilet paper" in their languages and shared these recordings with the world, bringing much needed humour – and another reminder of Indigenous ways of survival to the fore. These early responses also showed that just like the water, our languages always find a way. Using these available tools, platforms, and opportunities, the work can safely propel forward and not allow the precious language work to fall away in this time of crisis.

When people "rush" Christmas, they pay an oblique tribute to the Advent mysteries, because they want something to celebrate, and in the darkening days of the year they know that celebration has something to do with light. If only they paid attention to what Christ shows about those mysteries of death, judgment, heaven and hell, they'd have a much better celebration. "These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be filled" (John 15:11).
The second mystery of Advent is God's judgment: His design for the world and how we fit into His plan. We shall be accountable to Him in the "particular judgment" when we die, for what we have done with the gift of life He has given us. This will not be like facing a judge in court. It will be like facing one's spouse after a long separation and reaching out. There can only be an embrace if there is love. St. John Chrysostom said that in the moment of judgment, Christ will ask only: "How much did you love?" If the temporal world was created out of eternity by God's love, we can fit into that eternity only if love is the passport.
The essence of divine justice, then, consists in how one reciprocates the love that gives life. "Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the Lord understand it fully" (Proverbs 28:5). That is easier said than done, for how can the Lord's justice be understood in part, let alone "fully"? And yet, the answer is clear. The Lord's justice, which is the way He designs the world and all its motions and our participation in it, is beautiful, true, and good, and while we may not easily define beauty, truth and goodness, we know their result: joy.
Insanity is the inability to make right judgment. There is more insanity than we realize. The local police once gave me a special code number to call if I saw anyone in our neighborhood behaving strangely, and I told them that if I obliged them, their telephone would be ringing off the hook. But there is a wider kind of insanity, and it is life lived contrary to God's will. It is the source of sadness, and nothing is more insane than to be sad while being alive.
There are many reasons for sorrow in "this valley of tears," but such sorrow is not despair. The cynic may say that the light at the end of the tunnel is an approaching train, but the saints know that the light is Christ Himself. As the judge who is righteous and true, He says, "These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

Avoid refereeing disputes by being clear on the rules
On 7 Mar 2000 in Personnel Today
A recent ruling has clarified the extent of employers' duties when giving
references about ex-employees
Employers are often unclear about the terms on which they are required to
provide references for former employees.
About six years ago, in Spring v Guardian Assurance, 1994, IRLR 460, the
House of Lords held that an employer owes a duty of care to an ex-employee when
preparing a reference to ensure that its contents are true and accurate. An
individual can sue for damages to compensate for the harm to their employment
prospects caused by a negligent and inaccurate reference.
Last year, the Court of Appeal went even further, holding that the
employer's duty is to provide a reference which is substantially true, accurate
and fair. Even if the separate components of the reference are factually
correct, it must not give an unfair or misleading impression (Bartholomew v
London Borough of Hackney, 1999, IRLR 246).
Holding the line
Most recently, in Kidd v Axa Equity & Law Life Assurance Society and
another, High Court, 27 January 2000, unreported, an unsuccessful attempt was
made to push the boundaries of the referee's duty of care still further.
Much of the evidence in the case was hotly disputed and, to save time and
costs, the court proceeded on the basis of an assumed set of facts. In essence,
Kidd was an approved representative for Equity & Life, authorised to sell
its financial products. He resigned, intending to join Allied Dunbar.
The references provided by Equity & Life were poor, referring to the
fact that investigations were continuing into the conduct of Kidd's affairs
with clients as a result of a number of complaints. Allied Dunbar decided not
to proceed with the engagement of Kidd, and he filed for damages against both
firms. The crux of his case against Equity & Life was that it had owed him
a duty to provide a full, comprehensive and fair reference.
Mr Justice Burton encapsulated the legal obligation on a reference-provider
as follows: " …a duty to take reasonable care …not to give misleading
information …whether as a result of the unfairly selective provision of
information, or by the inclusion of facts or opinions in such a manner as to
give a false or mistaken inference in the mind of a reasonable recipient."
There is no additional duty, however, to give a full and comprehensive
reference or to refer to all material facts. The judge concluded that this
would be imposing a fresh and possibly crippling burden on employers. Kidd's
claim therefore failed.
Balanced approach
While this latest ruling is reassuring for employers, there are still
potential difficulties with the duty as defined. In particular, the need to
avoid giving an unfair impression suggests that a balanced approach is needed,
covering the former employee's strengths as well as his or her bad points. Note
also that employers owe a duty of care to any recipients of the reference.
More generally, employers can substantially reduce the potential for
negligence claims by having a clear policy that all references are prepared by
authorised personnel with appropriate knowledge and training.
Richard Lister works in the employment law department at Lewis Silkin
• An employer who provides a reference for an ex-employee owes a duty to
take reasonable care in compiling the reference and to make proper enquiries to
ensure that its contents are true.
• Even if the reference is factually correct, it should not give an unfair
or misleading impression overall. There is, however, no duty to give a full and
comprehensive reference.
• References given over the phone should be prepared as carefully as written
ones. Keep a note of the facts and opinions expressed.

Taking care of someone who has gone through a breast augmentation surgery can be difficult. They won't be able to do much for themselves, so you will really have to take the reins here. That's why you need to have patience. Don't get riled up and put off every time your help is needed. Your significant other is really counting on you here.
One item that really helps get your significant other through the discomfort of a breast enlargement surgery is an ice pack. You should purchase roughly 6 small freezable gel packs and then sew some small flannelette covers to them ahead of time. These flannelette covers will be wrapped around the ice packs. If you don't have any flannelette covers, you can always use cloth diapers instead. These covers will ultimately soften the impact of the plastic gel packs onto the sides of the breasts. However, the key here is to lay those packs flat to re-freeze them. This way the gel packs aren't rock hard and distorted, causing unnecessary pain. After two days, make sure to wash the covers over your gel packs so that your significant other is left with fresh fabric.
While couples tend to argue over whether the toilet seat should be left up or down, the answer here is always down. The top cover should never be put down. That's because it is extremely painful for your significant other to bend forward after having the surgery done. By placing the toilet seat down and the top cover up, the toilet is completely ready for her to use and there won't be any stress put on her.
Whenever the phone rings in your house, make sure to ask your significant other ahead of time if she wants the phone brought right to her or if she would have messages taken. That's because a lot of people don't realize that holding a phone to your ear actually requires a great deal of pectoral strength. At this time, she won't have any of that and the person on the other line probably won't even realize the pain they're putting her through to talk. You should, though, leave a cell phone within an arm's reach from her. This way if you have to be out of voice range, she has the phone to use for emergencies.
Please understand that light-headedness can occur after an individual undergoes a breast augmentation surgery. In fact, this light-headedness can be quite severe, especially if she's already feeling nauseous. When you get her standing, make sure to remind her to take deep breaths as that will help to get the oxygen flowing. Never let her use the stairs without you right behind her, just in case she becomes faint in the process. If she gets weak, it is your responsibility to support her body.
If you own a recliner chair at your home, make sure to line it with a camping foamie or a mattress pad. This will give your significant other a bit more comfort while they're stuck in bed recovering. You should also use single sheets for at least the first few days of sleep. Besides this, only have your significant other's use light weight blankets. That's because any weight or pressure on her breasts will be super uncomfortable, especially when she's laying on her back.
For some reason, after a breast augmentation surgery individuals tend to forget things. That's why your significant other may need you to remind her of things or go over what was said earlier. She may not remember the order things happened in or specific details. Go with whatever she needs and always be willing to re-hash things.
After a breast augmentation surgery, your significant other will probably experience some nausea. That's why you should make sure that you cupboards are stocked full of plain crackers, a couple of bowls of Jell-O and some meal replacement drinks. Do not cook any meals that have a strong odor as that will only make her more nauseous.
To bring a touch of the outside world to your significant other's bedside, it is essential to you go pick out a few fresh flowers. Place them by her bed so that she feels at one with nature.
While everyone has their own way of showing affection, when someone you love is bruised and swollen, a compliment sure does mean a lot. Be sure to offer as much encouragement as you possibly can. That means reminding your significant other that her new breasts are perfect to you.
Remember, recovery can be an uphill battle. While there are lot of ups, there are just as many or more downs to be experienced. Make sure that not only you understand but also your significant other understands that for as many steps forward she takes, there will be some steps back. That's why statements like "What can I do to help you?" and "I promise you will feel better soon" should be used. If she has any concerns, don't hesitate to call the doctor for her.
Once she starts to feel better, don't let her get going too fast. While you should definitely celebrate all of the progress she has made in her recovery, still keep resting. Slowly but surely have her get back into the swing of things. This means only taking one small task at a time.

"Teen Wolf" season 6 spoilers state Theo will return from Hell to help the pack defeat the Ghost Riders. More so, as the series comes full circle this final season, fans can't help but ask creators to give Stiles another shot at love.
Theo And The Ghost Riders
"Teen Wolf" season 6 spoilers from Design & Trend state that Theo will return to Beacon Hills. Cody Christian, the actor that portrays Theo, said that he will return as a changed man. Christian discussed his role during San Diego Comic-Con last month.

On October 19, UESTC signed a framework agreement with Changhong for startegic cooperation. The signing ceremony was held on the Qingshui River Campus. President Wang Jinsong and Chairman of Board of Directors signed the documents on behalf of their respective organizations. According to the agreement, both sides will have in-depth cooperation in various areas such as basic research and application, joint project engaement, technical transfer and application of research achievements, new inventions, integrative innovation, and improvement on imported technologies.
Also among those who witnessed the event were UESTC Party Secretary Wang Zhiqiang, Vice-president Xiong Caidong, Deputy Party Secretary Wang Yafei, Deputy General Manager of Changhong Group Zheng Guangqing, Assistant General Engineer Yang Dan, Deputy Director of Sichuan Provincial Office for National Denfence Technology Liu Weihua, and other officials concerned from both parties. Vice-president Yang Xiaobo presided over the ceremony.
Pesident Wang expressed warm welcome to Mr. Zhao and delegation. He said that, as one of the leading universities involved in Project 211 and Project 985 directly under the administration of the Ministry of Education, UESTC had developed itself into a multidisciplinary research university covering all branches of the electronics, with information science and technology as its kernel specialization, a university with major interest in engineering while gradually penetrating into different fields of science, management and humanities. UESTC, he added, was keenly interested in full-scale cooperation with leading enterprises in all major industries both at home and abroad. He also said that he viewed the framework agreement with Changhong as a new milestone in the bilateral cooperation, which would further strengthen ties between both sides, guaranttee more and greater innovative achievements, and set a good example for cooperation between a university and an industrial enterprise.
Mr. Zhao Yong said that ever since its establishment in 1958, Changhong had been going through a developmental journey from establishing itself in the defence industry, to rapidly growing with the production of color TV sets, to branching into diverse areas in information and electronic technologies. Changhong, he said, had successfully built itself into a comprehensive multinational industrial group which manufactures defence equipment and consumer electronic products with strong R&D capacities for making core components in related areas. Changhong, Zhao added, had always been keen on cooperation with excellent universities like UESTC. He believed that the signing of this new agreement would pave the way for Changhong to have a faster and better development with stronger support from UESTC, pushing Changhong forward in transformation from turning out products "Made in China" to producing technologies "Created by China".
Mr. Liu Weihua extended congratulations on the signing of the framework agreement on behalf of Sichuan Provincial Office for National Denfence Technology, hoping to see a faster and better development for the two sides in their research and production frontlines.
The two sides signed four other agreements on laboratory construction and human resource development. Plaques were also unveiled for three joint laboratories which specialize in data monitoring devices, digital application support software, and precision testing and radar systems.

The Wild Boar or Wild Pig (Sus Scrofa) is one of New Zealand's most popular game animals and a regular source of meat for many local hunters. Two strains of pig combined to create New Zealand's unique 'Captain Cooker', a pig named in honor of the great explorer and sea captain who was one of the first European navigators to explore New Zealand's waters.
Here's how it happened. Early European sailors brought European pigs into New Zealand in the 1700's. These in turn crossbred with the smaller black pig the early Polynesians had already established here. The combination of the two quite different species has produced a unique variety. Now this tough, feral pig quite freely roams both North and South Island bush and tussock land.
A Big Boar 'Cooker' can weigh up 300lbs and with his razor sharp ivory tusks that can draw out to 6 inches, presents as a formidable foe to any animal, including man.
With a keen sense of smell, and good hearing, the Wild Boar is a challenging animal to hunt. Spotting and foot stalking with rifle and bow are popular, as is the traditional Kiwi method of hunting using dogs and a knife, known as pig sticking. This hunting method is not for the squeamish, as the well-trained pig dogs find the pigs, bail and hold them until the hunter comes to dispatch them with a knife. It is an adrenaline-charged hunt and the unpredictability of tangling with a Big Boar hand to hand can produce some very exciting moments.

This keeps happening over and over and results in me disconnecting from peers.
I made a purchase of 200USD in BTC, and i never receive anything from the seller there is not way to take my btc back?
I sent BTC, bitcoin core says the transaction was made, the money was written off from the account and it is not visible in blockchain explorer. What's the problem, can you tell me?
Is it possible to collect data for when an transaction was added to the pool to when it was added to the block?
Does bitcoind re-index or reverify downloaded blocks upon startup?
If so is there a way to prevent this from happening?

DANDY'S ORIGINATES FROM PASSION AND EXPERTISE ACHIEVED IN OVER 35 YEARS OF HARD WORK, ALWAYS WILLING TO CREATE FRAMES IN A SERENE AND PLEASANT MANNER.
The illusory poverty of the product does show on the contrary the complexity and the extra care in every single hand made manufacturing step. The same concept is also applied on the Dandy's that are hand tumbled and polished, but of course for these models all the craftsmanship is less visible, being hidden by the gleam of the single piece.
Two different concepts and ways to interpret the product; the same passion and expertise in fulfilling it. Rough Collection comes in limited number of samples: the colors may vary but it might be most probable that we made one sole piece in a particular color. This is visible by reading the laser engraving on right eye rim that shows total no of pieces manufactured in that sole color.

Few days ago I changed the layout of my blog, and I chose using the great Pygments for code syntax highlighting.
I searched for some plugin to pull it off but the only one I found was this, but I missed something..
How the last commit was just in 2013, I decided fork the project in my personal github and improve it.
I have added more themes, embedded an admin interface (see below) to choose defaults and some more little adjusts.
For more information about how to use, installation and options, check out the repo in github.

Ukrainian airline postponed flight to Beijing for a year
This was reported to journalists by the president of the UIA, Yuri Miroshnikov, reports Ukrinform.
"Two weeks ago, we were supposed to open the Kiev-Beijing flight. But it did not take place. It was postponed for a year for a combination of reasons, including the delay in obtaining permits from the Chinese authorities and, last but not least, the assessment of the economic and political situation that began to take shape in Ukraine at the moment when we finally received this permission. It became clear that it was impossible to launch a flight, "he said.
Yu. Miroshnikov specified that permission from the People's Republic of China was received at the end of February.

As many young men experience, Hydn Rousseau's father walked out on him, his three siblings, and his mother when Rousseau was five years old. Most of his daily meals as a young man consisted of bread and sugar water. He didn't graduate from high school. He was convicted for selling drugs and served eight and a half years in prison. But that didn't stop Rousseau from accomplishing his goals and dreams.
In his book, Failure is Not an Option, he shares his story of growing up in poverty and how he didn't allow himself to become a victim or blame others for his circumstances. He stopped making excuses and took full responsibility for his actions and his life. Today, he is an author, a successful family and businessman who volunteers and mentors in his community.

Throw away all your preconceived ideas about Christmas music and get set for a very rare and beautiful treat in the compilation CD from Heart Dance Records and the Made In Arizona project.
Opening the list of wonderful pieces is pianist Louis Landon with a delicate, yet robust version of Joy to The World which has immediately put you on notice, as you unconsciously take note of what is next to follow: then you find your toe is tapping and somehow or other you begin to sing the time old words loved by many.
Thano and Lolo blend the beauty of harp and acoustic guitar to create an incredible version of Angels We Have Heard on High: should the angelic ones be listening they would more than approve of this wonderful melding of two incredibly versatile instruments to create such stunningly beautiful melody.
The Gift is introduced by Art Patience playing harmonica. The haunting manner of each note played is reminiscent of a clear and cold night on the open plains surrounded by the beauty of the night as the stars come out to celebrate the wonderful gifts of life and light.
The much love traditional carol Away in the Manger is introduced by Chris Burton Jacome. His simple and yet elegant rendition on Spanish Guitar is absolutely delightful. Light to the World is presented in an upbeat Country style by Amber Norgaard with her beautiful vocals bringing the ancient story of the birth of Christ into the modern arena.
The dulcet tone of the harp played by Jocelyn Obermeyer heralds in the very beautiful First Light followed by the rocking version of Jingle Bells from the award winning trio Sherry Finzer on flute, Darrin Mahoney of guitar and Will Clipman on percussion.
God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen, a well-loved and often sung Carol dating from 1833, is played with a lovely depth of feeling and a mellow and reflective tone by Greg Starr.
Franz Schubert composed the lyrics of Ave Maria as a devotional piece to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Many have covered this incredibly beautiful piece. This version by Tatum Lynn Stolworthy is one that will stack up well amongst the many, as it is sung with a depth of understanding which is rare in one so young.
Greensleeves is a loved and much enjoyed English folk tune which has found itself in the middle of a Christmas Carol's collection, but why not! John Calvert with his finger-picking guitar brings freshness to this once again, time old traditional piece.
Ambient Instrumental is the blend of choice for the deeply moving Silent Night, a piece which has been presented in a way that is both reflective and meditative, encouraging us to ponder on the tradition that is Christmas and the year yet to unfold.
The haunting, almost melancholic, notes of the Native American Flute played by Nathan Tsosie wrap around The Huron Carol which is absolutely the right instrument for this composition, which has long been considered as the first Canadian Christmas Carol to be written.
O Come O Come Emmanuel is a fitting finale to this wonderful composite collection sung by chanteuse Amy Faithe in a rendition that is as masterful as it is beautiful. The backing is rich, deep, sombre presenting a perfect soundscape for the purity of sound from this talented vocalist.
Christmas is a time for giving and thankfulness therefore it follows that 10% of this album sold will go towards Music as a Therapy, so give yourself a real treat and purchase an album that will delight, enhance and add that something extra special to your Christmas, from the Made In Arizona team of musicians who have recorded this incredibly beautiful album.


I have been out of commission for about 5 months now from severe back problems but recently was able to get out for a 3 day trip out to the Mojave Desert with Gary, car camping and easy 1-2 mile day hikes, lots to see. Here are some photos from the trip.
In this photo you can see we are not the only ones visiting these sites, most of the sites we went to are on BLM land and you can find out more info about how to see them by going to the BLM website.


In February 2012 Pollyanna set out on her latest expedition to study and paint endangered species. The jungles of Vietnam and Thailand are home to a diverse range of wildlife – from Indochinese tigers to langurs & elephants. Pollyanna spent six weeks trekking in National Parks and nature reserves.
Although it was little more than a glimpse of a shadow passing through the dense trees, the experience stayed with Pollyanna and will no doubt inspire a series of paintings of these beautifully marked cats. While in Cuc Phuong, which is renowned for its diversity of bird species, Pollyanna also visited two excellent conservation projects – a turtle sanctuary and primate rescue centre. Turtles have become extremely endangered in Vietnam, due to poaching. Sadly many of them end up on the dining tables of China, where the demand for turtle soup appears insatiable. As well as providing a haven for rescued turtles the project has an ongoing awareness campaign to highlight the plight of the turtles among the local population, and to encourage them to report poachers.
The Cuc Phuong Primate Centre rescues and cares for injured and orphaned primates, and rehabilitates them back into the wild. Pollyanna was able to sketch a wide range of species including the cat bar langur which is endemic to a small group of islands in the Ha Long Bay, gibbons, and even the slow and pygmy lorises she had previously only seen by torch light.
After her stay in Vietnam, Pollyanna travelled into Thailand. She visited several national parks, including Khao Yai, the second largest in Thailand, covering an area of 2,168 square kilometers, including evergreen forests and grasslands. The park is home to 3,000 species of plants, 320 species of birds and 66 species of mammals, including Asiatic black bear, Asian elephant, gaur,gibbon, Indian sambar deer, and the pig-tailed macaque. One of the highlights of Pollyanna's visit to this region was witnessing the remarkable spectacle of a million bats leaving Khao Luk Chang cave at dusk – an apparently never ending stream flying out into the darkening sky. Pollyanna descended into the same cave system to observe and sketch other bat species roosting on the walls and ceilings. While down there she also came face to face with some of the other cave residents – scorpion spiders and cave millipedes. "It is incredible to consider what a diversity of life lives in the dark – we so rarely have the chance to observe the unique creatures which survive in the cave ecosystem" Pollyanna commented.
In the light of day, the national park revealed a beautiful array of birdlife – including chestnut headed bee eaters, one of Pollyanna's favourite species to paint – as well as kingfishers and hornbills. Pollyanna also had ample opportunity to sketch wild Asiatic elephants, and some of the park's primates.
Pollyanna and Anna-Louise found the Vietnamese town of Tam Dao unlike any place they have ever visited. At 1,100m above sea level, it sits on the steep upper slopes of a mountain, enveloped in cloud for most of the year. The intrepid pair were visiting Tam Dao as it is the closest town to the Animals Asia Sanctuary where they hoped to meet Polly, one of the resident moon bears. The Pollyanna Pickering Foundation was able to fund Polly's rescue from an illegal bile farm in the southern province of Binh Duong, near Ho Chi Minh City, and with the help of our supporters, continues to fund Polly's ongoing care at the sanctuary. Pollyanna was able to be part of Polly bear's story from the very beginning – news of 14 bears awaiting rescue in Vietnam came through while Pollyanna was sitting having a cup if tea with Jill Robinson, the founder of Animals Asia in their sanctuary in China. Through the Foundation Pollyanna was able to provide funding for the rescue of one of the bears – and able to follow the details of the rescue and Polly's journey every step of the way.
Pollyanna was thrilled to observe a wild elephant in Thailand - however she was able to get even closer to the elephants when she spent a few days volunteering at the Baan Chang elephant sanctuary near Chiang Mai. The sanctuary is dedicated to providing abused elephants with the highest quality-of-life possible.
In the calm of the evenings and early mornings, Pollyanna was able to sit quietly in the sanctuary with her sketch pad and enjoy this amazing opportunity to capture the character of the elephants. She has returned from her journey into Asia with a folder full of sketches and ideas, which is sure to inspire an exhibition of new paintings in the coming months.


Many Seminole residents see a chiropractor for regular spinal adjustments, but we have found that some folks are still skeptical about chiropractic care. We have a long-standing history in the industry and want to help you understand the benefits of maintaining spinal health. Part of that is debunking myths about what we do.
Many people dismiss the help of a chiropractor because they are under the misconception that if they begin treatment, it will always be necessary. The thought of medical bills from the never-ending appointments keeps individuals from benefiting from the care their spine so desperately needs. We understand our patients are on a budget, so we will work with you from start to finish. We will begin by creating a treatment plan that targets your specific needs. This plan will include an estimate of how many appointments it will take to improve your condition so that you can prepare accordingly.
While chiropractic care isn't necessary for the rest of your life, many of our Seminole patients have found that they feel better overall by scheduling periodic sessions. There are absolutely no drawbacks to maintaining your spinal health.
Finish their classroom education, which involves many hours of examination and study.
Treat real patients in a clinical setting for their residency under the supervision of licensed practitioners.
Take and pass four national board exams.
Pass exams for the state in which they wish to practice.
Like other providers of healthcare, we undergo national testing, licensing, and receive regular reviews. It's important to us that you feel comfortable about your visit; we are happy to answer your questions and increase your understanding of how we can help.
If this myth were true, there would be no need for chiropractors. Consider the extensive training discussed above; can you truly achieve the same results just by twisting around in your chair? Joints are sensitive by nature and should be adjusted properly. By taking matters into your hands and resisting proper treatment, you risk making the pain worse. You can aggravate your joints and delaying will only allow discomfort to continue or increase.
At Coastal Chiropractic in Seminole, assisting our patients is our priority. Our chiropractor, Dr. Marc J. Rogers, can ease joint discomfort, help with injury recovery, and aid you in spinal health maintenance. We also offer herniated disc therapy, nutritional counseling, and massage therapy. Call 727-581-2774 to schedule an appointment!

I'm new to this forum, but thrilled to be a part of it. My question is about carting drums around.
I really like the new Honda Civic, 09 model year, coupe. It's a compact car, so my question is do any of you have an 07-09 Honda Civic coupe, and are you able to fit your drums into it?
I don't mind driving down the road with my hand on my bass drum or something, I don't mind if it's totally crammed, but my question is can it be done?
I have a 22x18 bass drum, 10/12/16 toms (i don't remember specific measurements), a bunch of cymbals, hardware bag etc...my biggest concern is the bass drum.
Hey welcome to DC. I have a 2000 civic coupe have not put the drums in but feel sure i could. A worst case would be take out the spare tire and set the bass in the hole. Take a tape measure to the dealership !
We have a Chevy HHR and have gotten a five piece kit with hardware & cymbals, a half stack, giant pedal board, two guirtars, two adults and two kids on board. We all got there and back in one piece too.
A friend of mine has a 2 door civic that's a tad older. He's also got a massive double bass kit (at least 8 toms, 2 snares and a crap load of cymbals (I had a huge kit before and his dwarfed mine). For shows he just unbolts his passenger seat and he gets everything in his car pretty easily. It's only 4 bolts and taking a seat out of a car (and reinstalling) is probably on the top 5 list of easiest things to do to a car.
Maybe, you can take you drums down to the car and try it. I did that with my bass gear. It looked strange at a dealership, but I wanted to make sure everything would fit.
Yeah, as silly as it might look I think I might just go down there with a tape measure and take some measurements. I don't want to get the car home and then be up the creek w/o a paddle!
Anyone else with 07-09 civic coupe experience & drumsets??
Good suggestion but you have that a little backwards. If you are buying a car on the condition your drums will fit, take the car home and load up your drums. That is the only way you will know.
I've done that with several vehicles. I buy them stictly to ensure my drums fit first and foremost. I've even dragged the salesman along.
Did ya get the salesman to roadie? That would trip them out!
Our Family is really into cycling and when we buy cars we take our bikes down to the dealership and make sure that they fit in the car before we buy it.
I've shoehorned drum kits into a '91 Ford Tempo 4-door sedan, a '95 Mercury Sable station wagon, and, naturally, my hand drums into an '83 Chevy Citation notchback (NOT hatchback!) coupe, as well as my 2001 Hyundai Sonata 4-door...but one car that surprised me was Mrs. 'bro's new 2008 Chevy HHR. Don't know how that dimensionally compares to a Honda Civic, but you can fold down the front passenger seat as well as the split back seat and shoehorn a fairly large kit into the HHR...so there's plenty of room for the hand drums, of course (and you don't have to unbolt anything, either)!
No matter what your final decision, make sure you try fitting the drums into the car...who knows, you might get a salesman as a roadie as BLD suggested!
Do you guys/gals use cases for your your drums? I would imagine that nicks and dents can in some cases become inevitable lugging the whole kit around no matter how careful one is.. I would think taking good care of our babies is paramount..
I don't know about the other guys, but I would never pack up the kit in the car without cases. The smaller the car, the more I would go with soft cases, but I would still make sure the drums were protected.
imo....ditch the Honda and get something else.... sounds like you need more horsepower and 4 doors, which allows easier access to the rear seat, where your bass drum sits. no matter how many drums you can fit into it....remember, its still a Honda!
bass in passenger seat, maybe the snare on floor, if you have a bag, then stack the rack toms and put em behind you, buckle them, then get the floor tom next to them. them cymbals next to the drums, hardware in trunk!
A trailer is a great option, only down side I see in your situation is that I have an 2004 Civic 4 Dr. Sedan and they don't recommend trailering with it, it will void the warranty. The unibody on the Civic just isn't designed for a trailer hitch. I haven't tried fitting a kit into the Civic, since my other car is a Jeep Cherokee, and I use that. I pretty sure if I had to I could put the kit in the Civic. On mine you can fold the back seat down which should make the longer pieces fit easier.
I had a 95 Merc Sable wagon!! Fit my bass gear great. Decent car until the engine burned up. Donated it to FATHER JOE Villages!
Definitely get cases. Preferably hard cases. It'll make cramming them in a small car easier and worry you much less.
I'm gonna have to agree with the "don't buy a Honda" comment above. I've got a Ranger with a camper shell (short bed: 6 feet) for my kit and there's plenty of room. I'm getting reports of the new trucks (2.3L 5-speed) getting 30mpg too. Not bad for a fairly inexpensive truck. I've also run into a few HHR owners that turned out to be drummers and they love those things. I've also used a Focus wagon to move my kit around in. Keep in mind I've got a double kick set and my old set was bigger than my current one, so you might not need a wagon (which they don't make anymore anyways).
Let me guess... the 3.8L Essex V6? I've destroyed 2 of those. Oddly enough, the third is still running strong.
I've found that 2 door cars are better than 4 when it comes to drums. They have much larger doors which allow for much larger things to fit into the back.
I put an entire set into a Smart Car...but then I'm a minimalist when it comes to drums.
Yeah, a set of bongos!
For some reason this thread randomly popped up in my thoughts today and I thought the same exact thing.
Also, the seat tracks on a 2 door vehicle have more travel in either direction to get more space for large objects going in the back.
i use my gmc safari conversion van now so i can make use of my larger cases. one is a big flight case w/ casters that holds the kick and 3 toms (one trip is better than several). i pulled of the captains chairs out to make room for it and the big HW case.

IT budgets are up and down in fiscal '07 request
Under President Bush's fiscal 2007 budget request, submitted to Congress last week, agencies would get an IT budget of $64.2 billion, a 3 percent increase over fiscal 2006.
In the budget, the administration said it would launch three new Lines of Business
Consolidation initiatives for IT infrastructure, budget formulation and geospatial investments.
The Office of Management and Budget, as expected, named three Grants LOB Centers of Excellence: the departments of Education, Health and Human Services, and the National Science Foundation. OMB expects the centers to save more than $2.4 billion between 2008 and 2015.
The president also requested $5.5 billion for health IT, a $100 million increase over fiscal 2006. According to Federal Sources Inc., about $3.25 billion would go for Defense Department health IT, and about $2.25 billion would be split among bioterrorism-specific applications, health IT infrastructure, e-health record applications, including HealtheVet and Vista, and other public health systems.
The Defense Department is asking a spare 1.3 percent increase over last year's IT budget, to $30.5 billion from $30.1 billion. Funding priorities include $5.3 billion for the Joint Strike Fighter; $3.7 billion for the Army's Future Combat Systems, including prototype platform development, and network and software development and testing; $3.3 billion in procurement and research, development, test and evaluation for the Navy's DD(X) destroyer; and $1.3 billion for the Joint Tactical Radio System.
House Armed Services Committee Chairman Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) called the defense budget "a thoughtful allocation of dollars, divided between the immediate challenges of funding the warfighting efforts of the global war on terrorism and investing in requirements to defeat future threats."
Outside of the Defense Department, the big winner in IT budget increases is the Homeland Security Department, with a 21.2 percent increase over fiscal 2006's request, to $4.41 billion.
The Transportation Security Administration has the largest proposed rise in IT spending, to $606 million, while the Federal Emergency Management Agency would see a drop in its IT budget from $94 million to $77 million.
DHS' largest IT line item is infrastructure, up from $887 million last year to $954 million in 2007. And U.S. Visit's IT budget, $407 million, includes a $60 million increase to expand its biometrics systems to 10 fingerprints.
Excluding the Homeland Security Department, civilian IT budgets total less than $30 billion. Most civilian agencies that got IT budget increases got single-digit raises, with the departments of Housing and Urban Development (a 15 percent bump from $258 million to $298 million) and Labor (up 13.2 percent from $455 million to $515 million) being the exception.


In addition to the WhiteWater course in Charles City, the Cedar River consistently provides good flat-water paddling in the area. Striking scenery in some stretches, frequent wildlife sightings, great fishing opportunities, and interesting water offer wonderful days on the river. Because the Cedar is one of the largest rivers in the area, even in dry weather, water levels are often more acceptable than on smaller streams. The first name of the river was Red Cedar (Moshkwahwakwah), given by the Sauk and Fox Indians because of the large number of red cedar trees in the area. Even today, a variety of tree species line the banks in many places. Gradient of the river is nearly six feet per mile in the upper section and about three feet per mile in the lower reaches. Depending on your experience level and equipment, water level, your interest in paddling hard or barely paddling, weather, and other factors, it is reasonable to plan two to four or more miles per hour for your trip. Fishing in this area of the river is excellent. Small mouth bass, rock bass, walleye and northern pike are found in the upper region. Channel catfish are found closer to Charles City. Many of the access points have good shore fishing spots, and the whitewater kayak course improvements in Charles City have greatly enhanced the fishing in that vicinity. Four dams impound the river from the Minnesota border to Mitchell, but the river flows freely from Mitchell to Charles City. Below Charles City, the only dams are at Nashua and Waverly. The clear water of the Cedar follows along wooded bluffs and limestone outcroppings in some areas and through serene countryside in others. The streambed is sand, limestone or gravel. Many springs and small tributaries bring in more fresh water.
The United States Geological Survey website provides flow rates in cubic feet per second (cfs) and water levels for Charles City at waterdata.usgs.gov/ia/nwis/uv?site_no=05457700. This site has links to the upstream gauge at Osage and downstream gauges at Waverly and Janesville, as well as a link to river forecast information from the National Weather Service. A minimum of 200 cfs is preferable for adequate water levels, with 400 – 600 a better range. Weather forecasts specific to the area can be found at forecast.weather.gov by keying in the zip code for Charles City, 50616.
The following information and associated maps cover about 50 miles both upstream and downstream from Charles City. References at the end contain additional information useful for planning a river trip. The first access, at Otranto Park, is only a few miles south of the border with Minnesota.
Put in at Otranto on the east bank below the dam. Just below the County Road 105 bridge, Deer Creek enters the river from the right and Turtle Creek from the left. The dam is about two miles below the bridge and can be portaged on the left bank.
The Acorn Park Dam is actually a broken dam, and experienced paddlers may be able to paddle through by following the river around the dam on the right, then cutting back to the left and shooting through. This is a fast water area, so it is advised to stop on the upriver side and take a look over the top of the broken dam at the water conditions before paddling through. There is little margin for error here. There is a 100-year-old dumpsite in the river just before the point where you would cut back to the left. Normally the metal is underwater, but low water levels bring a lot of it above the surface. This may be the most fun and dangerous part of the river!
The unusual name of St Ansgar, which means "God's Spear," honors the French Saint who brought Christianity to the Scandinavian countries.
It is necessary to carry around the St. Ansgar dam. The best portage is on the right bank about 50 yards above the dam.
Halvorson County Park has camping, a boat ramp and swimming facilities. The Interstate Power dam at Mitchell impounds the river for the next section to Mitchell. The portage around the dam, about 100 yards, is on the left bank, starting close to the power house and ending just above the Mitchell Bridge.
The fish habitat becomes more lake-like in this vicinity and anglers will find largemouth bass, crappie and northern pike.
The powerhouse at the dam is on the site of an early flour mill built in 1856. The millstone from this old mill has been built into the powerhouse wall, and the keystone of the power house is from the old Paragon Woolen Mill built around 1865. The area is now a county conservation area with camping and picnic tables available.
About a mile below the access is Iron Springs, located on the left at the base of a heavily timbered bluff. At the Falk Wildlife Area on the right, a scenic bluff rises, wooded with limestone cliffs. The river has a lot of riffles until the Highway 9 access.
More small cliffs appear in this section with limestone outcroppings in some areas. There is a fish riffle across the river just before the takeout at Osage Spring Park that can be crossed at the extreme right bank.
At the beginning of this section, the river is shallow and rock riffles are frequent. At the Sunny Brae Country Club, a low pontoon footbridge crosses the river and may require a short carry, depending on water level. Caution is advised because it is a sweeper hazard. Below this is a scenic stretch of the river, with deeper water and faster current. The shoreline is heavily timbered.
The river deepens and picks up speed below the Road T38 access. Spring Creek joins the river on the left and Rock Creek on the right before the next bridge.
For the next 3.5 miles downstream to the Highway 218 bridge at Floyd, there is good fishing water and the river scenery is picturesque. The character of the river changes about two miles below Floyd as it leaves limestone rock country and enters wide flood plain. Deer are a common sight along the banks.
This is an especially good area to see wildlife activity, with several eagles, beaver, green and blue herons, and other species living near the river. The take-out is on the right above the Main Street Dam in Charles City. The dam can be portaged on the right, putting in just across Main Street and going through the whitewater course or carrying about a quarter of a mile down.
This landing is next to a large concrete parking lot and within easy walking distance of restaurants (one with a deck overlooking the river), a coffee shop, convenience stores, and other shops. Grocery stores are not far away, within walking distance. The whitewater course is just downriver, with Riverfront Park along river left. Riverfront Park includes a disc golf course, amphitheater, play area, labyrinth (all free). Nearby are the Mooney Art Collection at the public library with works by Rembrandt, Picasso, Grant Wood, Salvador Dali and others (no admission fee), outstanding museum with displays tracing history of gasoline powered tractors and replication of a drug store, art center in Carnegie Library building, girlhood home of suffragette Carrie Chapman Catt, art deco Charles Theatre ($2 admission, $1 children and seniors) and a public art walking tour.
In addition to kayaks, canoes and SUPs (stand-up paddle boards), the whitewater course is popular with tubers and swimmers. Use of the course is free. A fish passageway along river left offers quieter water that flat-water paddlers may be interested in using. Scouting of the course is highly recommended before planning to paddle through it.
Below Charles City, the Cedar winds its way to Cedar Lake, a 200-acre impoundment created by the dam at Nashua. The first access below Charles City is the Howard Woods Recreation Area located on the east bank of the Nashua impoundment.
Howard Woods is a 20 acre area with hiking, river fishing, primitive camping, shelter and woodland.
Take out above the dam on river left and carry across the street and down to the river. Some amenities are within walking distance.
Small parking lot will accommodate only a couple of vehicles.
With 130 acres of land, the park has a campground, well for drinking water, flush toilets, pit latrine, showers, more than two miles of trails that wind throughout the park, a picnic and playground area, sand volleyball court, horseshoe pit and shelter with electricity. A recycling shed is available to reduce items that go to the landfill.
North Cedar Wildlife Area (98 acres) borders North Cedar Park on the west side. The area includes timber and old river oxbows. It is open to hunting, fishing, hiking.
Cedar Bend Park, the largest park in Bremer County, consisting of 180 acres, more than four miles of trails through forests, fields, and along the river's edge, as well as three picnic and playground areas, three sand volleyball courts and horseshoe pits. Two shelters with electricity, flush toilets, and shower facilities are also available. A recycling shed is also available to reduce items going to the landfill.
Three Rivers Park has a double boat ramp and a boat dock. It is adjacent to the Waverly Light and Power Duck Pond area, which is popular for hiking and fishing.
Although this park does not have an official access, it is the most commonly-used takeout to portage the dam. The park is foutwo blocks long along the Cedar River. It has a play unit, swings, recreational trail, 2 small shelters, modern restroom, and some of the best fishing and views of the inflatable dam. This park, as well as Brookwood Park, are in the heart of the downtown area and close to many amenities including an outfitter, Crawdaddy Outdoors, at 207 East Bremer Avenue.
Brookwood Park is a large area along the river south of the Green Bridge, and it includes a disc golf course, mature trees, open space and an undeveloped area with walking trails to the east along the river.
Below Waverly, the river is rocky in nature with a short stretch of sandy bottom before it reaches Janesville where it again becomes rocky.
Takeout will be on river left. A few miles downstream, the West Fork and Shell Rock rivers flow into the Cedar. In earlier times, Native Americans gathered at the confluence called Turkey Foot Forks, where the three rivers meet.

Jeremy Clarkson, Master-Level Troll, Trolls Entire Nation Of Argentina
Michael Ballaban
Hey there! Remember that time we told you that Top Gear's annual Christmas special would involve a journey finishing in the Argentine city of Ushuaia? Hah, yeah... good times, good times. It turns out that might not be the case, as Ushuaia just banned Jeremy Clarkson from entering the city.
Get Excited Because This Year's Top Gear Xmas Special Is In [REDACTED]
Yes, it's that time of year again. No, not the time that you get to watch Top Gear, nor that time…
Jeremy Clarkson is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the finest living trolls on Earth. While often toeing the line of revulsion, he often hits the mark hilariously. But what he just (allegedly!) pulled in Argentina is a masterclass in the subject.
Top Gear Says 'Sorry' For Weird Racist Joke, Blames America
We heard that Top Gear was getting sued last month when they used the obscure, derogatory term…
(In case you're all upset that I put a spoiler about an upcoming episode of Top Gear in the first paragraph of this post, sorry? I guess? But we're talking about master-level trolling, and I just couldn't help myself. Oops. Now you know that Top Gear's filming in Argentina. Anyways, the point of all this bolded font and whatnot really is that there is potentially FURTHER SPOILERS BELOW. You've been warned.)
One of the things you have to remember about Argentina is that back in 1982, it fought a war with the United Kingdom and disastrously lost. The details are fascinating, but really aren't important for our purposes here, but what you really have to know is that the conflict is called the Falklands War.
It was ostensibly over a bunch of wind-swept islands owned and administered by the UK, about 300 miles off the eastern coast of Argentina. Like I just said, Argentina lost the war quite badly, but it's never renounced its claim to the Falkland Islands, or what it calls Islas Malvinas.
Argentina gets pretty touchy about the whole issue, and it's a Big Thing with people over there. They never really got over it, and a lot of people in the country still get pissed off if somebody dares to even call the British islands "The Falklands." It's Islas Malvinas or nothing. That's how big a deal it is.
Which is why it's absolutely hilarious that the Porsche 928 that Clarkson's been piloting through Argentina's Patagonia region has been festooned with a license plate that reads "H982 FKL."
Or, "1982 Falklands," if you're squinting more deeply than you ever have in your life, and also you're really upset about losing a war and never gaining control of islands you never owned in the first place and which is filled with inhabitants who really don't want to live with you anyways.
(Argentina lost the war.)
Clarkson and the producers of Top Gear have, for their part, insisted that the number plate was random, came with the car when they bought it, and the whole kerfuffle is entirely unintentional, according to the Mirror:
But Andy Wilman, Top Gear's executive producer, said: "Top Gear production purchased three cars for a forthcoming programme; to suggest that this car was either chosen for its number plate, or that alternative number plates were substituted for the original is completely untrue."
But that doesn't really matter to the minister in Ushuaia, where the cars were supposed to finish. The entire Top Gear crew has been banned from entering the city, according to the Express, and right now the contingency plan basically ends with the team finishing slightly near, but not directly inside the city.
And other Argentinians are really pissed as well, the Express says, with many taking to Twitter just to insult Clarkson and tell him how absolutely NOT FUNNY he is:
One user wrote: "Your irony is not funny in Argentina".
Argentina lost the war.
H/t to Stephen!
David E. Davis
Don't Cry for me Argentina.

Q: How to get current Cell position of an Excel sheet using Apache POI Is there any way to calculate or is there any built-in API to get the current Cell position of an Excel sheet using Apache Poi??
Like A10 or F61 or AG34 or BK567 etc.
Note: I'm using poi3.9.jar. Thanks in advance. It would be preferable if there's a built-in api.
I need this cell position because, I want to use the below Formula to set value.
Formula is : cell.setCellFormula("G16/F16*100");

A: If you have the Apache POI Cell object to hand, you can call cell.getAddress() to get a CellAddress object.
From that, you can cell formatAsString to get the cell's address eg A1
int colNum = 2; // eg
Cell cell = row.getCell(colNum);
CellAddress addr = cell.getAddress();
String asExcel = addr.formatAsString(); // eg C3


The Steelers have re-signed veteran offensive lineman Cody Wallace to a three-year contract, the team announced today. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Wallace appeared in nine games for the Steelers last season at both guard and center and made four starts, both career-highs. He started the final four games of the season at center and made his first NFL start in Week 14 against the Miami Dolphins. The Steelers have seven offensive lineman with NFL experience on their roster.

My seven year old daughter has type 1 diabetes, and my four year old daughter is ICA and GAD antibody positive. We are returning for the final glucose tolerance test to see if she will be part of the DPT-1. We have been doing some research and are considering niacinamide or nicotinamide as a supplement. What is the difference between nicotinamide and niacinamide? Please respond with any information you may have on niacinamide, whether negative or positive.
Nicotinamide and niacinamide are the same. There have been a number of trials over the last fifteen years of the effect of nicotinamide in the early management of type�1 (autoimmune) diabetes, and they have failed to induce any convincing benefit. One recent one was A multi-centre randomized trial of two different doses of nicotinamide in patients with recent-onset type 1 diabetes (the IMDIAB VI) .
A group in New Zealand demonstrated that insulin dependence could be deferred in about 60% of islet cell antibody positive schoolchildren for as long as six years or as long as they took the nicotinamide. Another large trial of this so-called pre-diabetic group is taking place in Europe (ENDIT), but the results are not yet available.
If your four year-old he turns out to be antibody, she will probably be offered a chance to enroll in the trial of oral insulin. I believe that the group getting subcutaneous insulin is now closed. She would not be offered nicotinamide as part of DPT-1.
