Parking: the key to leasing space
- Ben Hautt, Stream Realty
The key to leasing space in 2012 and beyond?
It is simple. Parking. Everyone wants it, and fewer have it.
One undeniable trend coming out of the last downturn is that companies want to put more people in less space. How many people do you know that live Atlanta and don't own car? Not many. Employees will weigh the options of location and cost, but with unemployment as high as it is, few people are turning down good jobs in the suburbs.
Currently, there are 23.5 million square feet of office space in Atlanta that have parking ratios of 5-to-1,000 or higher. During 2011, occupancy of these buildings climbed by 2.38 percent to 81.7 percent, and occupancy will climb higher in 2012. I am certain of it.
What about MARTA? I am a big fan of MARTA and support its expansion, but according to MARTA only 8 percent of workers use it to commute to work. Why? It’s quite simple: MARTA connects a large percentage of businesses, but it does not connect the work force to their respective companies.
Further, Atlanta traffic is not really that bad. Yes, if you moved to Atlanta from a small town you might think this comment is crazy, but have you ever compared driving in Atlanta with driving in one of the so-called 24 hour gateway cities? CNN money ranked Atlanta the 10th worst city for traffic with 44 extra hours of travel time a year beyond the national average. By comparison, commuters in Chicago and Washington D.C. spend a staggering 70 hours per year above the national average. If it is more convenient to drive than to navigate public transportation, people will choose to drive and be home in time for their child’s soccer game. If there is a price for the extra time or convenience, it is safe to say that the cost is minimal.

Santa Monica cemetery might open up burials to all
Woodlawn Cemetery is struggling financially but has come up with a solution. Officials want to change a rule that said only Santa Monica residents can be buried there, according to the Daily Press:
A 112-year-old cemetery where more than 60,000 Santa Monica residents have been laid to rest could soon be open to outsiders.
City officials plan to change an old ordinance that limits interment at Woodlawn Cemetery to only current residents or former Santa Monicans who lived in the city for at least five years, making it the only known municipality in the state with such a restriction.
The recommendation by Woodlawn staff came at the City Council meeting on Tuesday during a presentation about a new business plan aimed at making the cemetery financially sustainable.

Rolls-Royce and Pratt & Whitney announce new partnership and IAE collaboration is restructured
13 October 2011
Rolls-Royce and Pratt & Whitney have formed a new partnership to power future mid-size aircraft. The two companies will establish a joint venture company, in which each will hold an equal share, to develop new engines for the next generation of aircraft that will replace the existing mid-size fleet. This new joint venture will focus on high bypass ratio geared turbofan technology, and future studies for next generation propulsion systems.
The IAE V2500, of which Rolls-Royce is a major partner powers the Airbus A320
As well as establishing the new partnership, Rolls-Royce and Pratt & Whitney will restructure their participation in IAE, which produces the V2500 engine for the A320 family of aircraft. Under the terms of the agreement Rolls-Royce will sell its equity and programme shares in IAE to Pratt & Whitney for $1.5 billion and in addition receive an agreed payment for each hour flown by the current installed fleet of V2500-powered aircraft for fifteen years from completion of the transaction.
Under the continuing leadership of Pratt & Whitney, JAEC, and MTU, IAE will continue to deliver product and customer support without interruption. Rolls-Royce remains committed to IAE and its customers and will continue to be responsible for the manufacture of high-pressure compressors, fan blades and discs as well as the provision of engineering support and final assembly of 50 per cent of V2500 engines.

Sultan Rahi’s 21st death anniversary today
The 21st death anniversary of legendary actor of Punjabi movies Sultan Rahi is being marked on Monday across the country.
Sultan Rahi, the pioneer of action films in Pakistan, was born in the Indian city of Saharanpur in 1938 and migrated to Pakistan after partition of the sub-continent.
He won the hearts of the audience with his performances and his unique personality. The actor started his career after starring in Baaghi which was released in 1956.
Since his debut, Rahi starred in various Urdu films as a supporting actor. His film Maula Jatt — released in 1979 — broke all records and became a trend setter in Punjabi films, thus changing trajectory of his career.
He had a voice like thunder and a rock-hard personality, which gave him a unique edge over the stars in the industry. Some of his dialogues are still popular and heard and cited in other films and dramas to this day.
He starred in more than 750 Punjabi and Urdu films. However, his career came to an abrupt halt on 9th January 1996, as he was shot dead by armed persons during a robbery attempt on Grand Trunk Road near Gujranwala.
His persona and legacy will remain an inspiration for the actors of the Pakistani film industry.

Police searching for Alto Pass man
Thursday, December 13, 2001
MCCLURE, Ill. -- Authorities in Southern Illinois continued to search Wednesday night for a missing Alto Pass, Ill., man who has Alzheimer's disease.
Walter Gibbs Sr., 73, was last seen about 5 p.m. Tuesday while going to McClure to visit friends. He was driving a white 1998 Dodge pickup truck.
Police said his wife followed behind him in her vehicle until reaching McClure and then continued on to Cape Girardeau.
Union County sheriff's deputies searched the area from a helicopter Wednesday, and deputies have been crisscrossing county roads looking for Gibbs, a dispatcher said.

National Environmental Monitoring in Sweden. The monitoring of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in fish is performed in 110 lakes in Sweden and annual sampling is carried out in 32 lakes, of which 7 are located in or close to the AMAP area. Three fish species have been selected: Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus), Northern pike (Esox lucius), and Perch (Perca fluviatilis). Fish are sampled, prepared, and stored in the Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB) at the Swedish Museum of Natural History (NRM). PCB, HCH, HCB, DDT, DDE, PFAS and PBDE are some of the POPs that are analysed.
National Environmental Monitoring Programme in Sweden. Measurements of persistant organic pollutants in air and precipitation are carried out at Råö, Hallahus, Aspvreten, and in Pallas (Northern Finland). The monitoring programme includes measurements of: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), some pesticides (HCH, DDT) and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDE).
National Environmental Monitoring Programme in Sweden. The objective of the project is to follow time trends of available metals in vegetation and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) in Lapland, Sweden. Analysed metals in liver and muscle samples are: Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mg, Mn, Ni,Hg, Pb, Zn. Analyses were performed on a continuous basis until 2005. Since then there has only been a collection of samples to be stored in the Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB) at the Swedish Museum of Natural History (NRM).
In order to evaluate the capacity of mussels to accumulate pollutants and to enhance growth and physiological effects, an investigation was carried out in the Faroe Islands and in the Skagerrak. In March 2000, about 1500 mussels of proper dimensions (length ranging between 5 and 6 cm) were collected in the Kaldbak Fjord (Faroe Islands) on a 10m water column. Selected mussels were divided in 4 groups (320 each) and deployed in 4 different stations (one at the Faroe Islands and three in the Skagerrak). Semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) were also deployed in the same stations for the preconcentration of lipophilic pollutants. One month later (end of April-beginning of May) mussels and SPMDs were recollected and sent to different laboratories for the determination of various parameters.
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are persistent and lipophilic compounds used as flame retardants in electronic equipment, plastic material and synthetic fibbers among other things. The PBDEs are mainly used as Deca-BDE and Bromokal 70-5DE, a mixture of tetra-, penta- and hexa-BDE. Due to its chemical and physical properties PBDEs, especially TeBDEs, tend to bioaccumulate. PBDEs were first reported in sediments in USA, and in fish from a Swedish river. More recently PBDEs have also been reported in seals, birds, mussels, whales and humans. In this study an SFE-method for rapid analysis of PBDEs in marine mammals was developed. This method was used to determinate the concentrations of these environmental pollutants in Pilot Whale samples caught in the Faroe Islands, Beluga Whales from the Arctic and Polar Bears from Svalbard. Using this method several PBDEs were analysed in the different species. In addition methoxylated PBDEs (Me-O-PBDE) were identified by interpretation of the different mass spectra’s. Of the 209 theoretical possible congeners only a few PBDE seem to accumulate in the environment. Accumulation of PBDE is related to the different chemical properties of the molecule. With the help of multivariate characterisation of a compound class using semi-empirical molecular orbital calculations, literature data and actual experimental measurements, the behaviour of PBDE in the environment can be modelled and predicted. Such models are essential in order to gain more insight in the behaviour of PBDE in the environment.
The general objective is to assess time trends and deposition loads of mercury and persistent organic pollutants from long-range atmospheric transport in Arctic environments (Greenland and north Swedish mountains) using lake sediments. The specific aims are: 1. Mercury - Study pre-industrial and industrial temporal changes in Hg concentrations in sediment records of remote lakes in Greenland and north Swedish mountains. - Address the hypothesis of 'cold condensation' (the progressive re-volatilization in relatively warm locations and subsequent condensation and deposition in cooler environments) of mercury, using a series of lake sediment cores along climate gradients: in Greenland from the inland ice sheet towards the coast and in the Swedish mountains from high altitudes down to the boreal forest. 2. POPs - Make a screening to establish which persistent organic pollutants are present in recent lake sediments in remote sites in Greenland and the north Swedish mountains. Besides PCBs, HCH, DDT and other pesticides, there are new environmental threats such as brominated flame retardants, such as PDBEs, which are of particular interest. The increasing use of PBDE and other brominated compounds may lead to increasing concentrations in the Arctic environment. However, very little is known about the levels of PBDEs as well as other POPs in sediments from the Arctic. - Analyse test series of selected POPs using a lake sediment core to assess temporal trends and a number of surface sediment samples from different lakes to assess spatial variability in concentrations and cumulative fluxes of POPs in Greenland and Swedish mountain lakes. - The main purpose of this pilot study of POPs is to determine the concentrations of selected POPs in sediments from Greenland and the northern Swedish mountains and to assess how useful lake sediments are for studying temporal and spatial pollution loads of POPs in Arctic environments.

Wildcat Boys Soccer advances to playoffs after long drought
Our boys soccer team qualified for the playoffs this year. The last time this happened was seven years ago. They played their playoff game on Thursday, February 23, in San Antonio and lost to a very good San Antonio St. Mary’s Hall team.
If you didn’t get to see them play this year, you missed out. They were a scrappy bunch who played hard all year. They also made history — along with the girls soccer team — by playing their home games at the West Campus. It was a great atmosphere.

Study expands green meaning
Experts are working on a new, wider definition of sustainability.
A new paper spells out new terms to expand the concept of sustainability to non-human species and their needs.
Lead researcher Dr Christoph Rupprecht, says there is a critical flaw in the original concept of sustainability.
“Past resource management based definitions of sustainability have ignored the fact that the wellbeing and needs of all living creatures is interdependent in ecologically complex ways,” Dr Rupprecht says.
The new multispecies concept of sustainability could overcome this flaw, meeting the needs of current and future generations of all species.
Researchers combined the latest studies on how species interact, ecologically and socially, with insights from Indigenous scholars and even cybernetics.
“Whether you look at climate change, biodiversity decline or microplastic pollution, sustainability efforts are failing across the board. But radical transformation requires the right tools,” Dr Rupprecht said.
“Only a concept that understands and fosters complex multispecies relationships can help sustain the well-being of species depending on one another, today and tomorrow.”
Visualisations of sustainability to date display environment, society and economy with an equal weighting, despite the latter two being entirely depend on the environment.
“In contrast, our conceptual models demonstrate the interdependence of human, animal, plant and microbial societies,” Dr Osborne said.
“They emphasise how the earth system including landscapes, cities and the bodies of living things are shaped by shared agency.”
Dr Rupprecht acknowledges that many of the world’s best practices in terms of sustainability have been developed by Indigenous people and are part of traditional ecological knowledge systems.
“These societies and cultures have the best track records in co-existing with other species,” said Dr Rupprecht.
The team hopes their findings will be a starting point for exploration and discussion about topics ranging from what multispecies cities might look like, to the implications of a multispecies inspired concept of public health.

A new survey commissioned by GE has found that 72 per cent of Australian businesses believe carbon pricing is here to stay and more than two-thirds of businesses have some form of carbon reduction strategy in place.
The recently released second annual Australian Low-Carbon Readiness Barometer from the Economist Intelligence Unit, which surveyed 136 senior executives in Australia across a broad mix of industries, also found that more than half of those companies directly affected by the carbon tax have developed broad energy efficiency strategies that encompass their external partners or supply chains.
“Business is getting on with the job of reducing their energy usage and therefore reducing their emissions,” Steve Sargent, President and CEO of GE Australia and New Zealand, explains.
“Now it is about action rather than policy. It is encouraging to see that the companies that are directly affected by carbon pricing are taking action. The big opportunity for business is in improved productivity from lower energy usage and innovation aimed at cost reduction and growth.”
Further key findings from the Australian Low-Carbon Readiness Barometer include:
- Now that we have policy in legislation, business is getting on with the job of reducing their carbon footprint and becoming more energy efficient. More than two thirds of all firms surveyed already have some sort of carbon-reduction strategy in place, and almost a third (29 per cent) has modelled the impact on their business operations.
- Of the firms which will be directly affected by carbon pricing, 85 per cent have a carbon-reduction strategy in place, with a further six per cent in the midst of developing one. Of the firms which will be indirectly affected by carbon pricing, only 10 per cent have conducted such modelling.
- Almost two-thirds of businesses surveyed believe that A$23 per tonne price of carbon is too high, while around 10 per cent believe it is too low.
“The results demonstrate that an imminent price on carbon is working to change behaviour and drive action,” Ben Waters, Director of GE ecomagination in Australia and New Zealand, concludes.
“This is the new business reality; doing more with less will be important this century. As with all new trends, business will react and adapt in different stages, however it is encouraging to see that starting to happen.”

LOCAL runners have spoken and they want the southside six to be an annual event.
After an incredibly successful first run, where more than 220 athletes from Scotland and beyond took part, the tired joggers sang praises of the race and begged for its return.
Toni Tochel – who travelled from England for the event - said: “I really hope this becomes a permanent fixture on the running calendar.
“Everything was really well organised. The marshals were enthusiastic and encouraging; the route wasgreat if a bit hilly - and signposted very well”.
Allan McDermid (33) – who organised the race with friend Nick Vaughan (36),was encouraged by the success of the southside six.
“We hope next year’s will be even bigger and better”, he enthused, “the race went really well, all the little parts clicked together perfectly, and we got lucky with the weather”.
David Mooney added: “The guys should be proud of themselves. I have been taking part in races for 20 years and the Southside Six has topped anything else I have ever done. It was great to hear so many other runners saying the same things”.
With a total distance covering 26 kilometres – it is the longest race in Glasgow and at just six pounds per entrant, it is also one of the most affordable.
Adding to the unique feel of the event, runners were able to take in all the beautiful greenspaces south of the river .
While the unsung heroes of 60 volunteer race marshals directed, encouraged and re-hydrated the runners.
After just 90 minutes, the top runners had already made their way back to Queen’s Park, after travailing through King’s Park, Linn Park, Rouken Glen, Pollok country park and Bellahouston – picking up a checkpoint sticker each time along the way.
Once the elite athletes had crossed the line, the camaraderie began to grow as they waited to cheer on their fellow fitness enthusiasts, as they battled to the finish line.
Nick Farrel, a 49-year-old property developer from Pollokshields who completed the race in two hours and three minutes told The Extra: “It was a really interesting and picturesque course. “Well done to the organisers they created a fun and relaxed atmosphere. “Everyone was so upbeat at the finish line, even if it wasn’t the easiest finish to a race”.
There, they were met with a bottle of water, a foil blanket, a bag of goodies, lentil soup from Mark’s Deli and tasty cakes baked by Mark Gannon.
The runners then had a well deserved break before partying well into the night at Clockwork Beer Co. of Battlefield.
Jeweller Lawrence Edwards (50) said: “It was a fantastic opportunity to visit six of Glasgow`s finest parks within two and a half hours.
“To add to this great day, when I opened my goody bag, not only did I find a bottle of water but amongst other things, a bottle of vodka”.

Winners of the ASCAP Pop Music Awards, handed out on April 23 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, included songwriters of the year Steve Mac (Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You,” Pink’s “What About Us,” Liam Payne’s “Strip That Down”), Starrah (Halsey’s Now or Never,” Drake’s “Fake Love,” Maroon 5’s “What Lovers Do” and Camila Cabello’s “Havana”) and Drew Taggart (Logic’s “1-800-273-8255,” The Chainsmokers’ “Something Just Like This” featuring Coldplay, “Closer” featuring Halsey, and “Paris”).
Said Taggart: “Every song I write, I’m in a constant state of panic. I never know if I’m ever going to have a big song again, but somehow my best buddy Alex Pall and I keep figuring it out. But maybe this is it. I may have peaked,” he joked in accepting his plaque.
ASCAP president Paul Williams remarked from the stage that Starrah is the first female recipient in 16 years to win the songwriter of the year award.
In addition, hitmaker Max Martin was recognized for the 11th time for “Side To Side” (Ariana Grande), “Can’t Stop The Feeling!” (Justin Timberlake), ”Send My Love” (Adele) and “Just Like Fire” (P!nk). No doubt he will make an encore appearance in 2019 having written four tracks for the forthcoming Ariana Grande album, including insta-hit “No Tears Left to Cry.”
The four have amassed a collective 10.5 billion YouTube views, according to ASCAP’s Williams, who marveled on introducing them, “There aren’t even that many people on the planet!”
Song of the Year went to “Shape of You,” co-written by Mac, Kandi Burrus and Tameka Harris. The top streamed song was “Despacito,” co-written by ASCAP members Justin Bieber, Jason “Poo Bear” Boyd and Daddy Yankee. “Bad Things,” sung by Machine Gun Kelly and Camila Cabello and featuring an interpolation of the 1998 hit “Out of My Head,” was also recognized with a special performance featuring Madison Emiko Love and Fastball’s Tony Scalzo.
Universal Music Publishing Group was named Publisher of the Year its role in 22 2017 hits including “Shape Of You,” “That’s What I Like” (Bruno Mars) and “Can’t Stop The Feeling!” UMPG chairman and CEO Jody Gerson accepted the award from ASCAP chief Elizabeth Matthews.
“This is truly a historic moment,” said Universal Music Publishing Group chairman and CEO Jody Gerson, noting that the industry has “worked tirelessly to come together with one, unified voice in the Music Modernization Act,” a bill that redresses fair pay issues for songwriters that, after four years, is scheduled for a House vote. “This is what we are fighting for every day: making sure songwriters get paid fairly.”
ASCAP CEO Matthews echoed the supportive sentiment. “Your music is at the center of this industry and all of us at ASCAP are grateful to support you with a sustainable future,” she said. Also in attendance to support songwriters through legislation that is helping to shape that sustainable future were Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) and Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), co-sponsors of the Music Modernization Act. “We want to ensure people are fairly compensated for their work,” Schultz told Variety, calling it “almost a miracle” that the industry put aside years of infighting long enough to get on the same page with this bill.
Independent Publisher of the Year went to BMG in recognition of seven hits over the past year including “Let Me Love You” (DJ Snake and Justin Bieber), “Despacito” (Justin Bieber) and “I’m The One” (DJ Khaled, Quavo, Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, Lil Wayne). BMG U.S. President Zach Katz was on hand to accept the award.
Katz said some of his competitors questioned whether the sizable BMG qualified as “indie.” “I don’t look at it as major category versus independent. I look at it any categories as are we championing creativity or not championing creativity? I say to everybody in this room, whether you’re an indie or a major, support writers with all your heart and make a major contribution.”
Additional honors went to Lana Del Rey (pictured above), who received the ASCAP Global Impact Award as well as a serenade by Father John Misty, Portugal.The Man, who received the ASCAP Vanguard Award, and Desmond Child, who was recognized with the prestigious ASCAP Founders Award. Child, co-writer of such hits as Bon Jovi’s “Livin on a Prayer” and Ricky Martin’s “Livin’ La Vida Loca,” received a tribute in the way of a performance by Alice Cooper and KISS guitarist Paul Stanley of the Cooper classic “Poison.”
Stanley said Child not only “created the template” for rock hits of the ’70s and ’80s, but also wrote Kiss’s biggest song: “I Was Made for Loving You.”
Child returned the compliment, stating he owed his success to Stanley, who not only introduced him to Jon Bon Jovi, for whom Child wrote many of his biggest hits (“Livin’ on a Prayer” and “You Give Love a Bad Name”), but provided invaluable advice, telling him, “ultimately, no matter what the critics say, human beings only want to hear big, fun songs full of hope.”
Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora , on hand to support Child’s win, said one of the keys to the songwriter’s success is his ability to get into the head of the person he’s writing for: “so the song winds up being a conversation with the artist.”

This was awesome! Labor intensive, but well worth it. Plenty for leftovers too. I used turkey bacon, but everything else I followed the recipe as best I could. I even splurged and bought the expensiveÂ GruyÃ¨re cheese. I was hoping to use ziti noodles, but my grocery store only had mini ziti, so I used penne instead. Oh well. Maybe next time. If you’re not a huge kale fan, I think this would be equally good with spinach.

One thought on “Bacon and Butternut Squash Pasta”
This was solid and soooo good! Yes, it’s a creamy dish but between the whole wheat noodles, squash, and kale, lots of goodness packed in here! I didn’t taste the bite or bitterness of kale At. All. So even if you’re not a kale fan, it would be easy for you to eat.

Last week, Google Maps released a new feature to Street View, making it possible to cycle through archived versions of the 360 panoramas. In addition to hours of amusement, this new form of virtual time travel provides an unprecedented way to explore how quickly a city can change at the street level—buildings are built and razed, streets are reconfigured, and the power of a fresh coat of paint gets a jaunty demonstration. The change is most stark in cities like New York, Detroit, and Los Angeles that have had Street View since its launch in 2007, and have a full six years of maps to parse through. Click through the slideshow to see a selection of these urban transformations; then go forth and discover your own.

With this new release, Azure customers can sync their data using fully managed connectors to popular Azure and Microsoft services, including Azure Blob Storage, Azure Event Hubs, and Azure Service Bus.
“Companies are recognizing that they cannot build a data-driven culture relying on batch-based analytics and BI alone. There is too much latency at every step—finding the data, ingesting it, querying it and representing it. In an age of lightning-fast consumer apps such as Instagram, users won’t tolerate excruciatingly slow analytics experiences. Not your customers, nor even your internal employees,” said Venkat Venkataramani, co-founder and CEO at Rockset. “Azure has a strong public cloud presence, and with this release we are making real-time analytics more accessible and affordable for all Azure customers.”
Rockset already integrates with multiple data lakes, event streams and transactional databases within Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
Rockset offers built-in connectors that are fully managed as part of its cloud platform, obviating the need for users to build and manage complicated data pipelines or use a separate ETL tool, and enabling real-time search, aggregations, and joins across disparate data from multiple sources.

What is Oxymorphone?
Oxymorphone is a pain medication that is similar to Morphine in composition. Oxycodone (Percocet/Oxycodone) breaks down into Oxymorphone as it is metabolized in the body. Opana is one brand name for Oxymorphone. Oxymorphone is indicated for moderate to severe pain only. The Opana ER is an extended release form of Oxymorphone and stays in the body longer. This medication requires fewer doses during a day and a more consistent blood stream level of medication over time. Opana ER is recommended for chronic pain only.
DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL while taking Opana in any form—especially the Opana ER. DO NOT TAKE ANY medication or cough preparation containing alcohol. The alcohol can break down the pill too fast and cause all of the day’s worth of medication to release at once. This could cause respiratory depression, trouble breathing, or even death. Be sure to take this medication exactly as directed by your physician.
Have questions about Opana or Opana ER? Please ask the physician or pharmacist on your next visit or call KPMS and ask to speak to a nurse.

How much is too much?
Most Americans have taken acetaminophen at one time or
another and most of us would never dream it could be harmful.
This medication is considered a safe medication and is available
over the counter for anyone to purchase. Most Americans are
not aware, however, that too much of this medication can cause
serious liver damage. Many liver transplants occur every year in
the United States because someone took too much
acetaminophen and their liver failed.
How do I protect myself?
Always read the label on medication bottles carefully—even with
over the counter medications. If you are unsure of how to take
the medication or if you don’t know if the medication is safe to
take with the prescription medications you are on, ALWAYS ask
your physician, nurse or pharmacist. This is especially important
if you are taking a combination pain medication such as Lorcet,
Lortab, Percocet, etc. These medications contain
acetaminophen (Tylenol) in addition to the narcotic pain
medication. Do not take over the counter pain relievers in
addition to your prescribed pain medication unless your pain
doctor has given you instruction in how to safely do so.
Taking combination cold or headache preparations is another
way that acetaminophen overdose can happen. People might
take a cold medication that contains acetaminophen and then
take additional acetaminophen in a pain reliever tablet.
IF IN DOUBT—DON’T
If you are not sure that an over the counter medicine is safe for
you, don’t take it until a health care professional tells you it is ok.
Another way to prevent accidental overdose of acetaminophen is
to tell your friends and family about the dangers of not taking
medications correctly. ALWAYS follow the instructions on the
bottle of medication and your doctor’s instructions.
Lyrica, also known by its generic name pregabalin, is a
medication that is used to treat neuropathic pain. It has also
been approved to treat certain types of seizures and the pain of
Fibromyalgia. Neuropathic pain means that the pain is coming
from a nerve instead of from other types of body tissues or
muscles. Examples of neuropathic pain include diabetic
neuropathy and post-herpetic neuralgia (pain after shingles).
This can happen when a diabetic person’s blood sugar is too
high over a period of time and the nerves going into the hands
and feet become damaged. Another example is when a nerve is
damaged by an accident or a nerve root can be compressed
from a spinal injury and become permanently damaged and
cause pain. Nerve pain can be described as burning, shooting,
or sharp. Lyrica helps neuropathic pain and decreases the
tingling and numbness. Lyrica, like all prescription medications,
does have side effects, but they are usually mild and vary from
patient to patient. Swelling of the hands and feet, and dizziness
or drowsiness are the most common side effects. Do you take
Lyrica? Ask your pharmacist or any staff member at KPMS for a
handout on this medication.
