Епоген (англ. - Epogen) - рекомбінантний епоетин альфа. Стимулятор утворення еритроцитів для лікування та профілактики анемії у людей з хронічною нирковою недостатністю, після противопухлинної хіміотерапії зі злоякісними пухлинами, перед хірургічним втручанням.

Загальна інформація
Епоген - це рекомбінантний препарат, розроблений компанією Amgen, що відпускається за рецептом для людей з анемією, яка виникає в результаті хронічної ниркової недостатності. Епоген діє як гормон еритропоетин. Цей гормон відіграє важливу роль у створені еритроцитів. Епоген сигналізує кістковому мозку виробляти більше еритроцитів, що призводить до підвищення рівня гемоглобіну і зменшення потреби у переливанні крові. Переливання крові проводиться при хронічній анемії, але переливання також може мати ризики, такі як різні типи реакцій та інфекцій. Проте Епоген не слід використовувати замість екстреного переливання еритроцитів для лікування анемії.

Переваги Епогену
Епоген розвиває виносливість до фізичних навантажень та покращує основні фізичні показники. У клінічному дослідженні, що проводила компанія Amgen, брали участь пацієнти з анемією, які перебували на гемодіалізі. Після прийому Епогену протягом 2 місяців вони показали покращення результатів під час фізичних навантажень і фізичної активності. У пацієнтів збільшилася витривалість під час ходьби на біговій доріжці, при поступовому зростанні швидкісті та крутизни бігової доріжки.

За словами пацієнтів, покращення загального фізичного стану включало: повернення можливості повноцінно рухатися та здатності доглядати за собою.

Моніторинг лікування
Організму потрібен час, щоб створити нові еритроцити та підвищити рівень гемоглобіну. При лікуванні Епогеном рівень гемоглобіну зазвичай підвищується через 2-6 тижнів. Лікування має проходити під наглядом лікаря. Протягом прийому препарату, лікар регулярно бере кров на аналізи — принаймні раз на тиждень на початку лікування — щоб переконатися, що препарат діє. Аналіз проводиться для визначення рівня гемоглобіну у крові. Лікар має підібрати коректний рівень гемоглобіну, щоб призначити найменшу дозу Епогену, необхідну для зменшення потреби в переливанні крові. Епоген може бути призначений, якщо рівень гемоглобіну менше 10 g/dL. Під час лікування Епогеном лікар також перевіряє рівень заліза, оскільки залізо допомагає еритроцитам переносити кисень.  Більшість пацієнтів, які приймають Епоген для лікування анемії також потребують лікування залізом.

Побічні ефекти
При прийомі Епогену іноді розвиваються серйозні проблеми з серцем (серцевий напад, інсульт, серцева недостатність), що може призвести до передчасної смерті. Зазвичай це є наслідком того, що рівень гемоглобіну залишається занадто високим або підвищується занадто швидко. Але ці проблеми можуть виникнути навіть якщо під час прийому Епогену рівень гемоглобіну не підвищується.

Поширені побічні ефекти:

- Біль у суглобах, м'язах або кістках

- Лихоманка

- Кашель

- Висипи

- Нудота

- Блювання

- Свербіння у горлі

- Головний біль

- Почервоніння та біль на шкірі в місці ін'єкції

Protection of lives …
Protection of lives must take priority
On dealing with the corona pandemic in Germany
The corona pandemic is also about the right to life. This takes unity and coherence, indeed. And he who affirms the right to life, will also take a stand against violence and war. And for raprochement in international relations.
In the Deutsches Historisches Museum (German Historical Museum) in Berlin a poster is exhibited, which could be seen all over Germany after the start of world War I – the text being the date of the German entry into the war "1. August 1914" – and the appeal of the German Emperor Wilhelm II to the German people: "I no longer know any parties , I know merely Germans".
This quotation is the most well-known sentence ever spoken by the German emperor. It was spread by the millions in newspapers, on posters and post cards. Today as well as then the appeal and the poster were and still are considered the epitome of German war propaganda and the authoritarian state by "socio-critical" circles.
Background to the poster was the so-called "Burgfrieden" (party truce), between the parties loyal to the emperor and the Social Democratic parliamentary faction in the 'Reichstag' which had been extremely critical of the emperor up to then, however later deviated from their party line by consenting to the war credits and thus making the war possible. The poster glorifies that "party truce": Under the portrait of Wilhelm II – carried by angels – the German people assemble worshipping their monarch. Among them we see women, children, students, officers, and farmers as well as the clergy – and even some workmen. The armorials of the 25 federal states symbolise the political unity of the empire.
"Critical" contemporaries
Many a "critical" contemporary may have remembered that poster, when he heard or read the current political appeals in Germany and other states, which urge unity and coherence and prescribe containments of personal freedom – like in times of war.
One example of such "critical" contemporaries is the letter of the editor of a German internet side to their authors. There we read: "In case – and this seems quite possible – the emergency should prevail in the whole republic and may be even the 'Bundeswehr' will be deployed within the country, there arise a lot of questions – after a first brainstorming – which we would like to pass on to you as an impuls for eventual articles." Important issues among others would be: "What are the decisions which might be taken bypassing the public, while we happen to be looking elsewhere conceived of once and again, but not accepted (Afghanistan deployment extended, obligation for schools to practise e-learning. Abolition of cash money)." Or: "The protests of the 'gilets jaunes' continued and could not be stopped – what is going to happen now In emergency all protests against cuts in social services will be illegal. Is this legitimate? Or: "The lies of the pharmaceutical industry – final report by the investigation committee after the swine flu." Or; "The definition of a pandemic (The WHO altered the definition after the swine flu)." Or: "Billions for aid programs – Distribution program from bottom to top?" Or: "DAX- manipulation and economic consequences – is it all about an economic war under false flag?" Or: "Credibility of the Charité's head virologist: He developed the test which now yields millions and millions; however it indicates only a "marker" and not the danger of the virus – this conflict of interests is never talked about worldwide – he is even considered Germany's most influential physician and counsellor to chancellor Merkel. Or: "In December 2019, that is shortly before the outbreak of the 'pandemic', there was a manoeuvre named 'event 201' in which the Chinese health authorities, the WHO, the Gates foundation and the CIA participated. This is by no means a rumour, you can look it up under: http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/scenario.html. A world-wide corona outbreak was simulated, which was to begin in Brasil, however, otherwise it sounds exactly like the things we are just experiencing now."
During the past years, the above-mentioned webside has published many valuable critical analyses and statements concerning many political issues. Note particularly the contributions of all participants countering the NATO states' war propaganda and war politics. One can only be pleased by this commitment, and the questions raised in the present context are by no means illegitimate.
However, what is it that strengthens humankind?
Are people encouraged by such questions in view of the Corona pandemic? Are we making tools available to our contemporaries this way so that they can respect and protect their lives, their health and that of others? Or to say it in other words – is a headline like the one in the "Neue Zürcher Zeitung" of 14 March "Jetzt kommt es auf uns alle an" (Now it's up to all of us) – a manipulation of the citizens almost comparable with that of Wilhelm II, which must be criticised –, or does such a caption express what is important right now: an appeal to everybody to do what he is capable of to contain the pandemic and keep the damage as small as possible? And does it not stress the fact that is it not the order of the day to raise all kinds of problematic questions and this way heighten distrust, instead of doing everything possible to protect lives which is indeed the basis of all other basic and human rights.
This is not possible without values. Martin Booms head of the Akademie für Sozialethik und Öffentliche Kultur (Academy for Social Ethics and Public Culture) emphasised this insight in a contribution to the NZZ dating 14 March 2020 and it is worthwhile to reflect his considerations.
"The Corona epidemic might expand to be the most serious global crisis the world has seen for decades. But this is not primarily due to the medical biological dimension of the event – even if this is indeed very serious […]. An even greater and sustained danger derives from the social, political economic and last not least moral secondary effects of what is happening, dangers which in a worse case scenario might decouple themselves from the actual epidemic. […] For the fact is that – particularly in the western-liberal societies – the Corona epidemic strikes a morally and politically seriously ill patient, who even beforehand suffered from all the symptoms which the current epidemic now produces: a high degree of disorientation and bewilderment, coupled with the loss of confidence into the established political and economic structures […], the erosion of the concept of objective truth, an erosion which succeeded in toppling the last piece of firm ground, i.e. the existence of general accepted truths."
Or: "Will the economically sound states be willing to support economically vulnerable countries with bail-out packages? Will people be responsible enough to restrict their personal freedoms in order to contribute to reducing the contamination risk for groups at risk?"
Or: "In case we succeed in view of the health crisis to return to the spiritual fundaments of western-liberal appreciation which have become fragile for quite some time, there may be a chance in this biological problem, a chance for our society. In this case, indeed, the corona crisis might contain those political, social and economical forces, who recently instead of promoting the spirit of humanism and solidarity pushed that of division, exclusion and priority of special interests." [all quotes translated by Current Concerns, eds.]
The right to life and what it entails
The questions and issues raised by social-critical thinkers, are not illegitimate. They are to be contemplated somewhen. However, we have to think anew every day, what is the world we are living in and what are the actual tasks to work on and what are the question and answers really encouraging mankind. Could it be possible that many a critical intellectual lays more weight on his critique, his theses, analyses and theories than on the actual well-being of his fellows? That must not be the result of ill-will. Karl Marx and the communist movement were an excellent example. Intellectuals standing in this tradition should scrutinise themselves in this respect. What serves the common weal shows in the results. The Corona pandemic is a real problem, those ill from the virus and those deceased exist. The question how to bring relief and redress takes priority.
He who has internalised the right to life not as his personal privilege, but as the fundamental right of all human beings, will also take a firm stand against all injustice, against violence and war, against the exploitation of humans by humans.
Whether these plagues of mankind appear as new forms of Jacobinian "virtue terror", as "sanctions" against peoples and states, as variations of "humanitarian interventionism" or in form of war manoeuvres like "Defender Europe 2020".1 •
1 Since mid-March 2020, there have been increasing reports that "Defender Europe 2020" has been cancelled due to the corona pandemic, or that it will only take place to a limited extent. US troops on their way to Europe are said to have turned back towards the USA. Bundeswehr soldiers should not participate because of the pandemic.

I defy anyone to spell "fuchsia bougainvillea" correctly without the help of this post or Google.
I ran a 10K loop from my house and enjoyed every slow-but-steady minute of it. It's hilly where I live and I consider the hill work (456 ft. gain over three major hills) good training. It's nice to shake things up and substitute a little uphill and downhill running for the treadmill and the gentle elevation changes on my usual routes. It wasn't speedy and it was a little clunky (see: left groin strain) but I covered the miles and made it home in time to have a PB&H sandwich on whole wheat and get in a shower before I had to make it to preschool pick-up. I'd call that darn successful.
I haven't run naked in a long time – even on the treadmill, I'm dependent on the pace and my TV!! Hope your groin is getting better!!
I can't even pronounce the name of the flower correctly!!

PMS: A Social Construct?
For the construction of the article, papers from the year 1953 until 2017 were reviewed; during these years, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) passed from being unacknowledged by society or medical circles to being identified, named, and defined. However, there are still no standardised methods for diagnosing it.
Illustration by carmigrau https://www.instagram.com/carmigrau/
In the beginning, PMS was described as "a condition of indescribable tension and a desire to find relief by foolish actions difficult to restrain" (Greene and Dalton, 1953), the condition described included weight gain and headaches, that had relieved themselves by the end of the menstrual cycle, when a woman's period arrived. Later, Puech (1942) added fever and lumbar pain to the diagnosis; Israel (1938), also observed transient nymphomania that similarly ended as menstruation arrived. Many authors began to research and so enrich the diagnosis of PMS, but did not always see it far from a psychological condition.
In later research, hormone fluctuation was discovered to be a symptom of the menstrual cycle. Medicine progressed, and some women could now be treated for intense PMS symptoms. Being that in the 50's it was understood that there was a need for an increase in the hormonal ratio to express PMS symptoms: "a large proportion of women, estimated to be around 40%, suffer a variety of symptoms during the final week or so of the menstrual cycle. In occasional cases, similar symptoms may occur at monthly intervals or during various points of the menstrual cycle." Green and Dalton (1953). Nowadays, there have been adjustments to the definition of PMS, as discoveries have been made in to PMS' possible causes. PMS is now acknowledged as not only being somatic, or 'water retention' as it was commonly diagnosed, for some women PMS symptoms can have a major impact on normal day-to-day functioning.
Female menstrual cycle, ovulation process and hormone levels
An important element to consider in regards to PMS is serotonin levels. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that the brain synthesizes, that is commonly known for contributing to a person's feelings of well-being and happiness. Serotonin decreases significantly on the days prior to menstruation, during the luteal phase. It must also be acknowledged that, along with the hormonal fluctuation related to the menstrual cycle, there are also related to seasonal variation, affected directly by the amount of sunlight and other environmental features.
The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), is a globally used diagnostic tool for epidemiology, health management, and clinical purposes. In the ICD (ICD-10), many symptoms related to PMS are classified in the range N00–N99: "diseases of the genitourinary system", specifically, N94: "pain and other conditions related to the female genital organs and the menstrual cycle."
It is estimated that women suffer from PMS the most intensely during their twenties and mid-thirties, as symptoms increase during a woman's most fertile years. According to Malpartida (2017), 75% of women suffer from PMS. Freeman (2003) said on the matter: "A differential diagnosis to distinguish PMS from other medical and psychiatric conditions is important for appropriate treatment. No hormone or laboratory test indicates a PMS diagnosis. The current diagnostic standard requires confirmation of subjective symptom reports by prospective daily diaries." Numerous symptoms can be attributed to PMS, including a spectrum of physical, behavioral, and emotional distress. Severe PMS can involve emotional symptoms such as irritability, mood swings, tension, and in the most extreme cases depression, which could be an indicator for Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). To deal with theses symptoms, women should seek help, however, many women will simply accept their PMS symptoms, although, some foods and practices might help to mitigate. More often than not however, women will not seek help.
PMS is not a social construct, the hormone oscillation is real, and so are the many symptoms such as swelling and breast tenderness, headaches, fatigue, mood swings, irritability, and some others. It is common for women to experience the typical symptoms of PMS during their fertile years, but when it passes from being sadness to depression and disabling physical pain, the situation should become clearer; if the symptoms are seriously impeding someone's ability to the most impairing the symptoms are, the sooner it medical help should be provided to have a diagnosis and treatment.

La Federació de Futbol de Samoa, també coneguda per les sigles FFS (en anglès: Football Federation Samoa) és l'òrgan de govern del futbol a l'estat independent de Samoa. La FFS va ser fundada l'any 1968 i, l'any 1986, va afiliar-se a la Confederació de Futbol d'Oceania (OFC) i a la Federació Internacional de Futbol Associació (FIFA).

Anteriorment s'havia conegut amb les sigles SFSF (en anglès: Samoa Football Soccer Federation), però el juny de 2008, la FIFA va crear una comissió normalitzadora en considerar que els deutes pendents i la crítica situació econòmica de la SFSF posaven en perill la seva continuïtat. El futbol samoà es va reinventar amb un nou nom (FFS) i un nou logotip.

El 19 de març de 2011 es va celebrar un històric congrés que donava per finalitzat el procés de normalització amb l'elecció d'un nou president i un nou consell executiu.

La FFS és la responsable d'organitzar el futbol de totes les categories, incloses les de futbol femení, futbol sala, futbol platja i l'equip nacional absolut o Selecció de futbol de Samoa (en anglès: Samoa national futbol team).

La principal competició de lliga és la Samoa National League. Va ser creada el 1979 i la disputen dotze equips. El guanyador accedeix al grup de classificació per a la Lliga de campions de l'OFC.

El 2010, es va crear la Samoa Cup, que és la competició anual per eliminatòria directa entre els principals clubs de Samoa. Des de 1997 a 2010 la competició de copa s'havia disputat amb altres denominacions.

Can you update the underlying OS from Web UI?
I'm a new user with AsteriskNOW coming over from another SIP software package.
I installed AsteriskNOW from the disc image and have been updating the FreePBX modules from the admin section and have been updating the underlying CentOS install via a "yum update" with SSH.
I'm wondering if there's a way to update CentOS via the Web UI. I poked around the menus but couldn't see anything that would accomplish this. Perhaps there's an add-on module that someone could recommend?
Re: Can you update the underlying OS from Web UI?

In fall 2015, we touched upon the true cost of hand hygiene compliance. Our post highlighted that proper hand hygiene reduces the spread of infection but compliance remains low. Additionally, results of the recent DebMed State of Hand Hygiene Compliance survey indicated that while most facilities consider hand hygiene an important priority, the cost of implementing a system drove their organizations' purchasing decisions. In fact, cost outranked the ability to deliver proven outcomes in reducing healthcare-associated infections. In our post, we asked the following questions: what is the true cost of hand hygiene compliance? Is the installation and the cost of the system driving budget priority? What about patients and staff who suffer from hospital-acquired infections (HAIs)? And finally, there is the consideration of just how much these patient and staff safety issues ultimately cost hospitals, and the overall healthcare system.

Which States Border Oklahoma?
Welcome to Oklahoma!
Oklahoma is one of the 48 contiguous states of the United States, situated in the south-central region of the country. It is the 20th largest state, covering an area of approximately 69,899 square miles, and the 28th most populous with 3.9 million residents. Oklahoma lies partly in the Great Plains and is bordered by six states: Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, New Mexico, Texas, and Colorado.
Arkansas and Missouri
Oklahoma shares its eastern boundary with the states of Arkansas and Missouri. It is bordered by Missouri on the northeast while Arkansas borders it to the east. When the Arkansas Territory was set up on March 2, 1819, the western boundary was fixed as the 100th degree parallel.
Oklahoma and Kansas share a long border to the north of Oklahoma. Highway 35 runs throughout the two states, connecting Wichita, Kansas' biggest city, with the state of Oklahoma.
New Mexico and Colorado
Oklahoma shares its western boundary at the panhandle with the state of New Mexico. Part of the panhandle also touches the southeast corner of Colorado. Both the borders that Oklahoma shares with Colorado and New Mexico are quite short.
Oklahoma shares its longest border with the state of Texas. The two states share boundary lines to the west and south of Oklahoma. The western boundary was predetermined about 100 years before Oklahoma became a state. It was featured in the treaty of 1819 between the US and Spain and was named as a line at the point of Red River where the 100th meridian crosses the stream and extends to the north.

Home / Attract and recruit / Recruit / Recruitment / International recruitment
Recruitment from outside of the UK has made a valuable contribution in the NHS over the years and continues to feature as an important part of the workforce supply strategy of NHS organisations, in line with the NHS People Plan.
Over recent years the Home Office has introduced a number of changes to the immigration system governing the way individuals from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland can work, train or study in the UK. Brexit has since led to the development of a new points-based immigration system which from 1 January 2021, controls all non-UK (excluding the Republic of Ireland) migration. Some of the routes are already open and you can find out more in our new points-based immigration system section.
Continuing international recruitment during COVID-19
COVID-19 can affect overseas travel, but as international recruitment continues here we describe some key recruitment approaches.
Employing EEA nationals
Employing EEA nationals from the European Economic Area now falls under the new points-based immigration system.

Let's Talk Dirty
August 11, 2014 August 12, 2014 by Marika Stone, posted in adaptive design, environment, activism, localizing, Transition Movement, sea level rise
I've wanted to write that headline ever since Dr. Mehmet Oz did his poop show on Oprah, giving us more on that subject than we ever wanted to know. But this is about sewers, another subject we just as soon not think about. It's just flush and forget, until something goes wrong. And then, we call the plumber. The end? Not exactly.
I first got curious about sewers when we had a block-long pavement collapse in front of our building in New York City in the late 1980's. It was caused (we were told) by the breakdown of an old water main, and it took over a week to replace the section of pipe and repair the road. In the meantime, we residents of adjacent buildings and passersby got a good look at the size of pipes that move water – and sewage, too – through underground tunnels in a city of that size. I could have stood up in the pipe, assuming I wanted to, and stretch my arms straight overhead. Back then, I wasn't all that worried about crumbling urban infrastructure, let alone what could happen in the kind of flooding Sandy brought to lower Manhattan and Hoboken (another place I've lived) across the Hudson River.
Then my husband came across an oddball story from Dubai about waste management that curled our hair. Terry Gross zoomed in on it, too, in an interview on NPR's Fresh Air with Kate Asher on her book (The Heights) about skyscrapers, including Dubai's Burj Khalifa, still the world's tallest building. Of course, if you're a fan of hers, you'll know that Terry Gross cuts right to the question that everyone wanted to ask : "When you're on the 100th floor of a building and you flush the toilet, what exactly happens after that?" (Quick answer: about the same as what happens in a two-story townhouse, with more pipes.)
Burj Khalifa has broken all kinds of construction records, but what the official page fails to mention is that its plumbing is not connected to the Dubai sewer system. In a building designed to hold 35,000 people, this means that about 15 tons of human waste must be hauled away each day, by truck to a sewage treatment facility. Sometimes so many trucks line up this process can take 24 hours to complete, whereupon it begins again. Seems a bit cart before horse s—t, to me, design-wise. (Google Poop Trucks of Dubai if your curiosity out-weighs the eeww factor.)
Feels like the subject keeps chasing me. Found this in my inbox today: We have a "scary sewage problem," wrote Gar Alperovitz in Alternet, due to aging, overwhelmed treatment centers and the kind of infrastructure problems I got to witness first hand over 20 years ago, in all our older cities. If the more visible roads and bridges are allowed to fall apart, chances are what is out of sight is getting even less respect and maintenance. Mix flooding from heavy rain to the runoff from agriculture, and you've got a sanitation and water security problem, Houston, and Toledo, too, where toxic algal blooms in Lake Erie recently poisoned the drinking water.
In his groundbreaking book, What Then Must We Do? Straight Talk About the Next American Revolution, historian/political economist/activist, Gar Alperovitz offers plenty of great ideas for addressing the huge problems with our economic system that too many people rant endlessly about on Facebook and other social media. Hint: he's big on cooperatives. So I wasn't at all surprised that, although he is straight talking about the challenges, he also sees plenty of opportunities, as in JOB opportunities, in fixing the monster urban sewage problem. Chief among these is prevention of storm-water runoff in the first place. He points to smart design approaches like urban forestry, green roofs, and artificial wetlands, among others. It reminds me of the 'soft' design approaches to an inrushing ocean – high dunes planted with dune grass vs. seawalls – that spared some Jersey Shore communities during Sandy. It also made me think of On the Water: Palisades Bay, the architectural design project that captivated me during a visit to the Museum of Modern Art in 2010 (see link below). These are the kinds of things we need to lobby for in our cities, whatever their size, as adaptive strategies to climate change that also positively impact the economy, immediately and later on. Check out Alperovitz's work at Democracy Collaborative about building a more sustainable, equitable economy, and what we as thoughtful citizen can and must do. Sign up for his newsletter.

CIRCOR Reports Third-Quarter 2012 Financial Results
By: CIRCOR International, Inc. via Business Wire News Releases
November 01, 2012 at 07:30 AM EDT
CIRCOR International, Inc. (NYSE: CIR), a leading provider of valves and other highly engineered products for the energy, aerospace and industrial markets, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
"We are pleased with our excellent performance in the third quarter driven by margin improvement and the continued execution of our growth strategy," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bill Higgins. "Our Energy segment continues to improve execution operationally and in international projects where we continue to grow and where we achieved favorable closure on several completed projects. In addition, Flow Technologies continued to deliver strong operating margins."
"During the quarter we continued to focus on our growth strategy in the oil & gas, power generation and aerospace markets," continued Higgins. "We have been attracting top talent across the organization, improving operations with Lean and operational excellence, and enhancing our competitive position by building our global supply chain and manufacturing footprint around the world to service global customers."
CIRCOR also announced that it is taking several repositioning actions over the next three quarters to enhance profitability, including consolidating facilities, shifting supply to lower cost regions and exiting certain non-strategic product lines. CIRCOR's third-quarter results include charges associated with these repositioning actions, and the Company expects further charges in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first half of 2013. The Company anticipates annualized pre-tax savings from these actions to be approximately $7 million with a favorable margin impact in the range of 100 basis points, to be fully realized in the second half of 2013.
"As a result of our Lean and operational excellence initiatives, the efficiencies we have gained in our operations has and will enable us to consolidate facilities and drive margin expansion," said Higgins. "We believe CIRCOR is well positioned to continue to grow revenue, expand margins and deliver enhanced shareholder value."
Consolidated Results
Revenues of $209.8 million for the third quarter of 2012 were flat compared with the previous year. Net income for the third quarter of 2012 was $1.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, which includes special and impairment charges of $1.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively, as well as repositioning related inventory charges of $4.1 million, compared with net income of $10.9 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011, which included a benefit of $0.2 million in Leslie asbestos and bankruptcy charges. Excluding the charges from both periods, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the third quarter of 2012 increased 22% to $0.76 from $0.62 in the year-earlier quarter.
Excluding the charges in both periods, adjusted operating income was $18.5 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared with $15.7 million in the third quarter of 2011, an increase of 18%.
The Company received orders totaling $225.5 million during the third quarter of 2012, a decrease of 1% compared with the third quarter of 2011. Backlog as of September 30, 2012 was $444.3 million, up 1% from backlog of $440.2 million at October 2, 2011.
During the third quarter of 2012, the Company generated $18.7 million of free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures). This compares with $5.2 million of free cash flow used in the third quarter of 2011.
Energy segment revenues increased 6% to $110.0 million for the third quarter of 2012 from $103.3 million for the third quarter of 2011 across most markets. The segment reported increases in the short-cycle North American and large international project businesses, partially offset by lower pipeline shipments as well as unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of $5.1 million.
Incoming orders for the third quarter of 2012 were $118.1 million, an increase of 26% year-over-year primarily due to higher international project and North American short-cycle orders. Ending backlog totaled $210.4 million, an increase of 4% year-over-year. The increase in backlog was primarily due to higher order levels within our large international project business, partially offset by ongoing shipments of a large pipeline project booked in 2010.
For the third quarter of 2012, the Energy segment adjusted operating margin increased to 14.0% from 7.2% in the third quarter of 2011, primarily driven by favorable penalty reserve adjustments as CIRCOR closed several large international projects, improved pricing and increased volume with the associated leverage. Segment adjusted operating margin for the quarter excludes special and impairment charges of $1.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively, and repositioning related inventory charges of $0.9 million. The repositioning charges are related to the exiting of certain underperforming manufacturing operations and non-strategic product lines at the Company's Brazil operations.
Aerospace segment revenues decreased by 3% to $31.8 million for the third quarter of 2012 from $32.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of $1.0 million.
Incoming orders for the third quarter of 2012 were $42.9 million, a decrease of 32% year-over-year primarily due to lower landing gear orders in both commercial and military. Ending backlog totaled $162.7 million, an increase of 1% year-over-year.
The Aerospace segment's adjusted operating margin for the third quarter of 2012 decreased to 4.2% from 5.6% in the third quarter of 2011 primarily due to the timing of operating expenses as well as investments in future programs. Segment adjusted operating margin excludes special and impairment charges of $0.2 million and $8.2 million, respectively, and repositioning related inventory charges of $3.2 million. The charges in the third quarter of 2012 are related to exiting certain low margin product lines, as well as the repositioning of certain landing gear operations and manufacturing activities within California.
Flow Technologies segment revenues decreased 8% to $68.0 million for the third quarter of 2012 from $74.0 million in the third quarter of 2011. Third-quarter 2012 Flow Technologies segment revenues reflected an organic decline of $4.4 million and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of $1.5 million. The organic revenue decline was primarily due to lower LED equipment shipments, partially offset by organic growth across most other businesses.
Incoming orders for the Flow Technologies segment were $64.5 million for the third quarter of 2012, a decrease of 9% year-over-year, primarily due to weakness in the LED equipment market. Ending backlog totaled $71.2 million, a decrease of 8% year-over-year driven by the shipment of Navy backlog and lower LED equipment orders.
The segment's adjusted operating margin for the third quarter of 2012 decreased to 13.1% from 13.6% in the third quarter of 2011, primarily due to lower volume and associated leverage and growth investments partially offset by favorable mix and reduced spending.
As part of its repositioning actions, CIRCOR expects to incur pretax charges in the range of $3.0 million to $3.5 million, or $0.16 to $0.19 per diluted share, during the fourth quarter of 2012.
CIRCOR currently expects revenues for the fourth quarter of 2012 in the range of $203 million to $212 million. Excluding repositioning charges, adjusted earnings for the fourth quarter are expected to be in the range of $0.50 to $0.62 per diluted share. CIRCOR's guidance for adjusted earnings per share assumes a 30% tax rate on adjusted earnings. It also assumes that exchange rates remain at present levels.

2006 was the last time the Mets were in the playoffs and I was lucky enough to see a few games. (My 2006 NLDS pictures. 2006 NLCS Game 1 pictures. 2006 NLCS Game 2 pictures.) Fast forward to the present and the Mets are back in the playoffs and I'm again lucky to be able to travel in from Chicago for the NLDS games against the Dodgers.
NLDS game 3 on Monday night was incredible. From every member of the Dodgers getting heavily booed, to the surprise of seeing Ruben Tejada lined up with his team to Rusty Staub's ceremonial first pitch to Tim Teufel.
Matt Harvey was on the mound which always brings extra excitement. After an initial delay of the Dodgers replay equipment (very fitting) not working, Harvey got started. You could somewhat tell that it was going to be one of those games where he battled. He went 5 innings giving up 3 runs.
On the rest of the pitching front, Bartolo Colon and Addison Reed came in from the pen and did well. Erik Goeddel came in too, but didn't do well, giving up 3 runs without even recording an out. Jeurys Familia came in and took care of business to help the Mets hold on for the win.
Luckily, the Mets offense came alive and though the team was down early, they took a lead and never looked back. Travis d'Arnaud and Curtis Grandson got things going in the 2nd and d'Arnaud kept his big game going again in the 3rd with a two-run home run. Later, the Dodgers intentionally walked David Wright. And it backfired.
It was a great, great night. Even better? I was there with my dad.
