Distraught players offered counselling for Hughes blow
Players from both South Australia and New South Wales have been offered counselling after the traumatic events that befell Phillip Hughes at the SCG.
The shuddering blow to the head that caused Hughes to collapse on the pitch and be taken to St Vincent's Hospital for emergency surgery left players from each side in a state of great distress, as they processed the sight of the 25-year-old lying motionless on the ground.
Raised in Macksville in country NSW, Hughes made his name with the Blues before moving to South Australia for the 2012-13 season, meaning all players knew him well. Sean Abbott, the young allrounder who delivered the bouncer that struck Hughes, had been part of numerous squads with him.
The Australia opening batsman David Warner had Hughes at the other end when he made his Test debut at the Gabba against New Zealand in 2011, and stayed rigidly at his side while the NSW team doctor John Orchard performed mouth to mouth in an effort to get Hughes breathing again.
The NSW captain Brad Haddin stood a few metres from the motorised stretcher with a pained look on his face, while the SA batsman Tom Cooper tenderly removed Hughes' batting pads. The South Australian coach Darren Berry and high performance manager Tim Nielsen did their best to comfort the Redbacks players.
These scenes made the decision to abandon the match - reached shortly after Hughes was taken by ambulance to hospital - not merely understandable but imperative. Alastair Nicholson, recently appointed the chief executive of the Australian Cricketers Association, said: "We were obviously shocked to learn of the seriousness of the incident involving Phil. While we have faith that he's receiving the best available treatment, the situation will impact his family, friends, and those directly involved on the field.
"The ACA is therefore working closely with CA to arrange the appropriate counselling for those affected. Naturally our thoughts are with him and we wish him well from all the ACA members."
Warner, who only gave up his post beside Hughes shortly before he was moved into the ambulance, later tweeted: "Thoughts are with my little mate Hughesy and his family. He is a fighter and a champion and he will get through this. Praying for you buddy."
Australia's captain Michael Clarke is a longtime friend of Hughes, and made calls to the SCG to ascertain which hospital he was being taken to before driving there to be by his side. The former NSW wicketkeeper Daniel Smith was among others who ventured to St Vincent's, where Hughes' sister and mother Virginia were also present, having come to the SCG to watch Hughes bat this day.

Tokyo is the capital of Japan and one of the largest cities in the world. Tokyo was founded in 1457 and was called Edo in ancient times. After the Meiji Restoration in 1868, Emperor Meiji moved the capital from Kyoto to Edo, which was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo, Yokohama and Chiba constitute Japan's famous Keihama Industrial Zone. Tokyo is also Japan's business and finance. In the eyes of many young Asians, Tokyo is a vibrant and contemporary city that is always at the forefront of fashion. Pop music, idol TV series, Walkman, MD, cosmetics, video games, platform shoes and avant-garde makeup, all of these young people's favorites, all start here.
Ginza, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro and Shibuya, the names of Tokyo's most prosperous districts, have become biblical names for fashionable young people. Odaiba, known as the Champs Elysees in France, is the most popular leisure resort area in Japan.
Sitting on the Tokyo line, you can quickly cross the east, west, north and south of Tokyo, to the Tama area to enjoy the autumn leaves of the red maple in the National park; Or walk through Sekigahara, the largest in Japan, to enjoy the sacred beauty of Mount Fuji.
The cherry blossoms of Tokyo have long been well known in Lu Xun's articles. Every year in the cherry blossom season in March and April, Tokyo cherry blossoms bloom everywhere, from Ueno Park, Shinjuku Gyoen, to Chizorobuchi, Sumida Park, everywhere is a cherry blossom viewing spot.
In the infinite prosperity of Tokyo, there is also an ancient Japanese tradition. Although it is not as simple and elegant as Kyoto, it is undoubtedly the most valuable scenery of a bustling metropolis. The three major festivals in Tokyo have been widely celebrated by the public. Traditional skills such as sumo wrestling, Kabuki and Noh drama play an important role in Tokyo.
The construction of Edo Castle began in the second half of the 15th century. It is said to have been completed by Uesugi, the city master of Kawakue (present-day Saitama Prefecture), on the orders of the Adachi prefectural Office in Kyoto, who ordered his family to Ota Dokan. When choosing a place, Daoguan took a look at this piece of wet land but surrounded by mountains and sea Kanto, so he built Edo City in the area of today's Imperial Palace. After that, history entered the Warring States period, a period of continuous wars between military generals in different places. The decisive victory of Tokugawa Ieyasu in the Great War of Sekanohara ushered in the reign of the Edo shogunate, which was based in Edo Castle, and thus put Edo on the stage of history as a political city. After this, Edo Castle attracted more and more people and gradually developed into the city of the time. In the process of development, Edo City gradually divided into two characteristic areas, one is the civilian area, also known as "Shimocho", where a lot of small merchants and craftsmen gathered; Another area is the upper class district known as the "Hands of the Mountains", which includes the residential area and the residential area of Ichimoto, where the trees are lined and the environment is beautiful, and the politics of Edo City. With the final end of the shogunate, Japanese society entered the Meiji Restoration period, and began to actively absorb and introduce Western culture to build its own national state. During this period, the imperial family moved from Kyoto to Edo, which was renamed Tokyo and became the new capital of Japan. Edo Castle was renamed Tokyo Castle, Miyagi Castle, and Imperial Palace, eventually becoming the residence of the emperor, the national symbol. After the Great Kanto Earthquake and the defeat of the Second World War, the heart of Tokyo was devastated but soon embarked on the road of the city, and soon entered the period of rapid urban development. Since then, especially since the 1980s, the image of Tokyo as an international metropolis has become more and more popular.
Spring: March to May is spring. In the early spring, it is still very cold, and you need to wear a thick coat, but in May, when the plants begin to sprout, it is very warm at noon. The temperature difference in the morning and evening is relatively large, but the whole day is basically more comfortable, the weather is warm, the humidity is low, the wind is sunny, it is an excellent time to travel, and the sightseeing places are also bustling. Summer June to August is the hottest season of the year. In particular, the temperature in July and August, just after the Meiyu, exceeded 30 degrees Celsius and the humidity was high, which made it hot and stuffy in the middle of summer every day. June falls on the summer solstice and has the longest days of the year. In August, the temperature does not drop below 25 ° C at night, making it difficult to fall asleep on a hot night without cold air. Autumn September to November is autumn. In September, there are midsummer days with daytime temperatures above 30 ° C, and in October, there are typhoons. In the Okutama region, the red leaves begin to turn red from late October, creating a fascinating scene. Winter is from December to February, with low temperatures. Although occasionally snow, but the heart will not snow. The days get shorter and the sun sets around 4:30-5:30 p.m. Cherry blossoms have an extremely brilliant and sad beauty when they are in full bloom, because the most beautiful day of their youth is also the time when their petals fall. The main cherry varieties are Yaejo cherry, Yoshino cherry, Oyama cherry, evening cherry and so on. Japan has designated the "Cherry Blossom Festival" from March 15 to April 15 every year. In Ueno Park, the largest park in Tokyo, a "cherry blossom Festival" is held every year at this time. From morning to night, day and night, enjoy the beauty of "night cherry". When the flower season comes, the pink flowers pile up clouds and mist, and the scene is very spectacular.
· Do not make too much noise in public places or homes, so as not to affect others, especially at night; Usually pay attention to save water.
· Japanese people are very strict about punctuality. People believe that they should not waste other people's time by being late. If they are inevitably late for some reason, they must call and tell each other. The Japanese don't trust people who aren't punctual. ,
Greeting among Japanese: basically, it is expressed by bowing. From a general salute to a 90-degree upper body bow. In the "tatami" room, it is necessary to sit and salute. Bend your upper body in the "seat" position, place your hands in front of you and lower your head. In general, Japanese people do not touch each other and traditionally do not shake hands. Japanese people sometimes shake hands, but mostly on special occasions such as between Japanese and foreigners, between candidates and voters, and between celebrities and fans. ,
Sitting posture: In school, generally sit in a chair. But in the family, the Japanese still maintain the traditional sitting on the "tatami" life.
Wave: Gently release the palm of your hand, and swing your wrist back and forth from the front to your side a few times. This method has no gender, age restrictions, can be used. However, waving to people of high status and seniority is impolite and should be avoided as much as possible. Self: "That's me", "me?" Point to your nose with your index finger. Hooray: This is the action of raising one's hand to show happiness when winning a game or having good luck. In most cases, everyone shouts "Hooray" together at the same time to express the mood of congratulating luck and wishing happiness. · The majority of Japanese believe in Shinto and Buddhism, they do not like purple, they think purple is sad color; The most taboo green, that green is ominous color.
· Japanese people taboo 3 people together "photo", they think that the middle is left and right two people, which is an omen of misfortune. · The Japanese taboo lotus, lotus is considered to be a mourning flower. Do not use camellias and pale yellow or white flowers when visiting patients, and do not want to accept things or gifts with chrysanthemums or chrysanthemum patterns, because it is the symbol of the royal family. Japanese favorite patterns are pine, bamboo, plum, duck, turtle and so on.
Unlucky numbers: The Japanese taboo "4" and "9". Because "4" is pronounced the same as "death"; "9" and "bitter" are the same pronunciation, "9" means suffering. Some hotel room numbers do not have 13, 4, 9. · No tipping: Before World War II, some hotels and transportation institutions had a habit of tipping, but recently it has been almost eliminated. · Japanese people think it is embarrassing to kiss in front of others. · Touching another person's body is considered a faux pas in Japan. Men and women do not shake hands unless they are in a relationship. · Smoking is allowed, but chewing gum is not. It is also considered impolite to eat alone when others have not eaten. ,
You must remove your shoes when entering a Japanese house. · In Japan, it is impolite to peek into the kitchen when visiting someone's home. · Keep quiet and do not talk loudly when eating, drinking or other public places. · Shoes must be taken off when entering a Japanese house. · When eating or drinking soup, do not put the rice bowl or soup bowl on the table, but pick up the bowl with your hands to eat. · Do not stick your chopsticks in a bowl full of rice. · When eating fish, do not put the bones directly on the table, please place them on a plate. · When going to a public bath in Japan (written as "銭 soup" in Japanese), wash your body outside the bath

Tom Felton sought advice from Harry Potter co-stars ahead of West End debut
Tom Felton has said his Harry Potter co-star Matthew Lewis told him to “embrace the madness” after he went to him and Daniel Radcliffe for advice ahead of his West End debut.
The actor will join the cast of the supernatural thriller 2:22 – A Ghost Story when the play moves to the Criterion Theatre for its third season on May 7.
Written by Danny Robins and directed by Matthew Dunster, the show follows Jenny, who believes her new home is haunted, while her husband Sam does not believe it.
Felton, best known for his role as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series, will play Sam while Doctor Who star Mandip Gill will play Jenny.
He told BBC’s The One Show that he sought advice from Radcliffe and Lewis, who starred in the film series as the titular wizard and Neville Longbottom respectively, due to their experience on stage.
Felton said: “I was very excited to tell Daniel, he’s done a lot of theatre and musicals and so I was keen to get a bit of an insight.
“Him and Matthew Lewis, who I saw the other day, he was equally keen to advise me to embrace the madness and don’t panic and just enjoy the time actually being up there.
“It’s a very different thing than we’ve done before. I don’t want to speak too soon but I’m really excited to get started.”
Radcliffe has stage experience in the West End revival of Equus, and the Broadway versions of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and Privacy, where he played whistleblower Edward Snowden.
Lewis has also gained a number of theatre credits, including the West End production of Our Boys and the play Unfaithful in 2016.
Felton said he was “very excited” about taking to the stage but joked that he was “not as excited” as his mother, recalling how she would bring him to auditions in London when he was a child.
He added: “So for me to have a part in something that’s going to be taking place in West End is hugely terrifyingly exciting, in all the right ways.”
The play has previously featured the West End debut of pop star Lily Allen, as well as appearances by I’m A Celebrity 2020 winner Giovanna Fletcher, Encanto’s Stephanie Beatriz, Inbetweeners actor James Buckley, EastEnder Jake Wood and theatre star Hadley Fraser.
The third season, which boasts a completely new cast, moves to the Criterion Theatre after runs at the Noel Coward and Gielgud theatres. It received three Olivier nominations, including best new play.
War Of The Worlds star Beatriz Romilly will play the couple’s friend Lauren, while Mum actor Sam Swainsbury will play her new partner Ben.

11:00 am - 3:00 pm MST Mon. Wed. Fri.
Urinary tract infection has become a major medical problem in men. Although less common than in women (1:30 male to female ratio), when it does occur it can become serious.
The male urethra is much longer than the female's. This natural barrier does not allow bacteria a quick access to the bladder. Together with the antibacterial actions of some secretions of the prostate gland, it probably accounts for why men are less likely than women to develop urinary tract infection.
However, if you are a bladder infection and/or prostate infection sufferer, you should become an informed patient. Then, and only then, you will be able to manage your own care, ask the right questions, insist on adequate management and information, and seek an optimal health outcome.
But you don't have to be a statistic! If you take good care of your urinary tract you can avoid all those nasty infections that has been affecting so many men.
When it comes to taking better control of your health, you always need to stay alert and ultimately rely on yourself for important decisions, just as all men should do. Also, you need to appreciate and, hopefully, consider the nutritional and lifestyle-based approach as the alternative treatment option for your urinary health.
Because the urinary system is structured in a way that helps ward off pathogenic bacteria, an infection does not always occur when they are introduced into the bladder. Also, the urinary tract consists of a number of natural safeguards that protect it against infection-causing bacteria. This natural self-defense system includes:
Normally, urine is normally sterile, that is, free of bacteria, viruses, and fungi. So, it functions as an antiseptic, helping to wash potentially harmful bacteria out of the body during normal urination.
Urine contains large quantities of urea. It is the colorless, crystalline end product manufactured within the liver and excreted from the body via urinary tract. Known for its antiseptic and bactericidal properties, urea helps to inhibit the growth of many types of detrimental bacteria, including Eschericia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus. It also helps to kill the detrimental bacteria that cause bacterial forms of prostatitis.
These tubes carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The ureters and the bladder are structurally designed to prevent urine from backing up toward the kidneys.
The male urethra is longer than the female's. Also, the urethral opening in men is farther from sources of bacteria from the anus. That’s why men are less likely than women to develop urinary tract infection.
When bacteria infect the bladder, the cells that line the bladder, literally, sacrifice themselves and self-destruct (a process called apoptosis). In so doing, they fall away from the lining, carrying the bacteria with them. This process, suggested by some interesting research, eliminates about 90% of the E. coli.
In fact, the immune defenses continuously fight bacteria and other harmful micro-invaders. In addition, antibacterial substances in the mucous lining of the bladder eliminate many organisms.
Some secretions of the prostate gland have been known for their antibacterial activity.
Our body is constantly challenged by all kinds of bacteria, both commensal (as a part of our normal flora*) and pathogenic (infectious). At the same time, antimicrobial molecules (peptides), constantly secreted by our innate immune system, protect the body from bacterial overgrowth, keeping in balance our microbiota - all micro-organisms and viruses coexisting in the gastrointestinal tract.
These antimicrobial peptides, called defensins, act mainly by disrupting the structure of pathogenic bacterial cell membranes. It is a very complex and sophisticated defense mechanism.
One of the most prominent antimicrobial molecules is the human beta defensin 1 (hBD1). It is constantly expressed by epithelial cells and exhibits complex and diverse host antimicrobial strategies. Besides disrupting the bacterial cell walls, it creates a net-like structure surrounding and entrapping infectious bacteria.
*Our normal flora contains approximately one hundred trillion bacteria covering our body and living in the gastrointestinal tract.
In most cases, about 80 percent in adults, urinary tract infection is caused by a variety of pathogens, infectious bacteria normally present in the intestines, especially in the rectum.
Nearly all infections of the lower urinary tract and bladder are caused by a few strains of E. coli bacteria, called uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC).
A variety of other Enterobacteriaceae and Gram-positive pathogens, includes:
Other possible causes of urinary tract intections include:
Below there are the common risk factors – attributes, characteristics or exposures – that increase your likelihood of developing a urinary tract infection:
The tips for UTI prevention may be summarized as follows:
The only way to diagnose an infection is checking a urine sample.
Urinary Analysis (U/A)
This test is commonly performed in the doctor’s office or in lab. It just takes a few minutes – a dipstick is placed in the urine sample and up to ten different substances can be detected.
Microscopic Urinalysis (U/A micro)
A doctor may also wait a few hours for the lab to run a microscopic urinalysis – a drop of urine is examined under a microscope – to help in the decision whether or not to start an antibiotic treatment while the urine culture is running.
With no doubt, urine culture is the most accurate test to determine for sure whether or not an infection is present. The lab puts the urine sample in an incubator. If any bacteria are in the sample, they will multiply and show up. However, it takes 24 to 48 hours for the bacteria to grow enough to be detected.
Antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST)
If only one type of bacteria grows in the culture, the lab will expose the bacteria to a variety of antibiotics to see to which ones the bacteria are sensitive. This usually takes one day after the culture is positive. It helps to decide which antibiotic is best for the infection.
If you have frequent recurrences (three or more UTIs a year) doctors typically prescribe:
Usually, stronger antibiotics are given for single, acute episodes of bladder infection (cystitis). After acute symptoms have subsided, prophylactic, or preventive, therapy with low-dose antibiotics is prescribed.
Besides antibiotics, standard treatments also include:
Normally, these treatments are employed in a trial and error faction with varying degrees of success.
In fact, antibiotic treatments do not successfully kill all the bacteria participating in the infection. And they may encourage many of the bacteria to persist in a resting state.
Therefore, current standard drug treatments for bladder infections are not adequate. This phenomenon may account for many of the repeat urinary tract infections.
Although antibiotics are not ‘cure-alls’ for all, they have become a worldwide medical standard for urinary tract infections.
The antibiotic treatments have many well-known drawbacks. Here’re the most common ones:
Also, all antibiotic therapies carry with them the risks of developing:
Therefore, due to all these hazards, especially of prolonged antibiotic therapy, the use of antibiotics should be reduced to the absolute minimum.
I took a fluoroquinolone antibiotic* to kill the infections and it destroyed my body.
I cannot stand or walk. I'm disabled with a lot of side effects.
And I still have these infections - mycoplasma hominis** and ureaplasma urealyticum.**
*Fluoroquinolones – broad-spectrum bactericidal antibiotics are being used against both Gram-negative bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Gram-positive bacteria, such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). One of the most widely used fluoroquinolones worldwide is ciprofloxacin.
** Although there are about 200 types of mycoplasma bacteria, it is currently understood that only a few species cause urinary infections, including: Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum.
A Mycoplasma hominis urinary tract infection can cause discharge from the urethra or pain when urinating. It may be connected to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
A Ureaplasma urealyticum urinary tract infection can be contracted through sexual contact. However, Mycoplasma hominis, along with Ureaplasma urealyticum, have been found resistant to ciprofloxacin.
One possible factor behind ongoing (recurring)* urinary tract infection may be the ability of bacteria to attach to cells lining the urinary tract. The symptoms sometimes can be caused by chemical irritation such as bath additives or soaps. They may disappear, if toiletries are changed.
Usually, the latest infection stems from a strain or type of bacteria that is different from the infection before it, indicating a separate infection. Even when several urinary tract infections in a row are due to E. coli, slight differences in the bacteria indicate distinct infections.
Also, you may have persistent (repeated) symptoms suggestive of urinary tract infection – but without infection being present. This condition is not serious but can be troublesome.
Repeated (chronic)** urinary tract infections, however, should always be treated thoroughly because of the chance of kidney infections (nephritis).
*Urinary tract infection is called "ongoing" or "recurring," when the urinary tract gets re-infected or because treatment did not clear the infection entirely. Symptoms may stop during treatment, but they may start up again after treatment.
**Urinary tract infection is considered "persistent" or "repeated (chronic)," when a person has three positive, or abnormal (with bacteria present) urine cultures during a 12-month period or two infections during the previous 6 months.
UTIs are the most common bacterial infections found in nursing home residents, accounting for:
The incidence of UTIs is higher in the elderly due to genitourinary abnormalities, urolithiasis, dehydration, and diabetes, among other causes. These are considered complicated UTIs - in the presence of factors that predispose to persistent or relapsing infection, such as:
In elderly men, prostate enlargement causes bladder outlet obstruction predisposing them to urinary stasis and UTIs. When urinary tract abnormalities persist or treatment ineffectively eradicates resistant bacteria, UTIs are prone to recur.
UTIs are considered recurrent when ≥ 3 occur within 1 year or ≥ 2 occur in a 6-month period. The anticipated recurrence rate of complicated UTIs at 4 to 6 weeks following completion of therapy is 40% to 60%.
Current practice standards recommend not treating asymptomatic UTIs to avoid contributing to bacterial antibiotic resistance. The frequent use of antibiotics, such as quinolones, which are increasingly inactive against these organisms, contributes to the overgrowth of bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract and their appearance in the genitourinary tract.
As UTI-causing bacteria become more resistant to available antibiotics, the need to explore new strategies for managing UTIs is clear.
*Based on various available sources and studies, our research and practical experience. Last modified on May 23, 2022.
Contrary to a popular belief and common medical practice, men with urinary tract infection do not have to suffer and be exposed to countless rounds of vicious antibiotics.
With the help of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory herbs, nutrients and phytonutrients, it is possible to get through both acute and chronic UTI by:
Compared to standard medical treatments (read: antibiotics), the natural, non-pharmacological approach to urinary tract infection is clearly a superior option – much safer and without side effects.
It is our working experience that UTIs can be successfully controlled and most importantly prevented with the help of natural formulations. Therefore, you, or someone you know or hold dear, who suffers from bladder infection should give this approach serious consideration.
Dear Uribiotic Team,
I am very happy to have been introduced to your products.
Being a man with UTI issues, actually, chronic bladder Staph likely due to Lyme’s, I am certainly in a minority of the population, so finding your Uribiotic Formula and European DP Extract was a needle in the haystack.
You are much appreciated.
Centereach, New York
I have been on your Uribiotic since June 9th, so it has been 11 days and it looks like the UTI has cleared up! Thank God!
I'm very excited to feel like this, that is a hundred percent better – more energetic, no symptoms at all- thanks to your Uribiotic Formula.
I don't know where I would be without your Uribiotic! I think you are an angel sent from God!
I have been faithful to your recommendation about the diet and have not touched sugar of any kind. And I will continue to stay on this protocol until I finish, probably, the next bottle or maybe even two as I want to make sure my UTI is gone!
Thank you so much for putting your heart and energy into this incredible formula! Without you I would be lost, sick and very depressed!
May God bless you, your company and all that you do!
Best wishes and eternally grateful,
Gilynne del C.
After 12 days in the hospital - first time in my life and I am pushing 70 - I came home feeling pretty good. I had been dehydrated, lacked vitamin D and magnesium and, naturally, had a bladder dysfunction.
Before leaving I was checked over and had a urine sample taken. Two days later, a doctor called saying I had a staph infection and he had called in to the pharmacy so I could pick up an antibiotic.
My wife immediately went to the Internet searching for something else since I needed to eat, doctor's orders, and the antibiotic would kill off the "good" bugs, making digestion less than complete.
She discovered the Uribiotic Formula, bought it and it worked. Quickly. I ate, digested food and the infection cleared up.
I recommend Uribiotic to anyone who needs something fast, safe and easy to clear up urinary tract problems.
Thanks a lot and more power to your untiring service to every sick individual in the entire world!

Catapres for Opiate Withdrawal
Medications for Opiate Withdrawal
Unmanaged opiate withdrawal can be a significant obstacle to receiving treatment for and recovering from opiate addiction. Opiate withdrawal refers to the symptoms and side effects that occur when someone stops using opiates. Physical dependence isn’t the same as addiction, and it should be treated separately. When someone is physically dependent on opiates, their body has become accustomed to the presence of opiates. When they stop using those opiates suddenly, their body tries to readjust. The result are withdrawal symptoms. Psychological addiction describes a chronic disease in which someone’s drug use is compulsive and out of their control. Dependence can occur with or without addiction.
To begin inpatient or outpatient substance abuse treatment, a person must first go through opiate detox. Once all the drugs are removed from a person’s system, that person can begin actual treatment. During a medical detox, there are certain prescription and over-the-counter medications that can be provided. These medications achieve three primary goals. Detox medications can address drug cravings, alleviate physical symptoms, and help manage psychological opiate withdrawal symptoms.
Detoxing from opiates isn’t usually deadly, but it is painful and uncomfortable. Symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle aches and pains, intense drug cravings, anxiety, depression, and insomnia. For long-term or heavy opiate users, these symptoms are often severe. During a medical detox, patients who are dependent on opioids can receive the medications that are right for them in a safe and comfortable environment. This is the best way to increase the chances of making it through detox successfully and to reduce the likelihood of a relapse. One medication used for opiate withdrawal is Catapres.

Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, said he saw "no inherent contradiction between Matt Sanchez being pro-military and being part of the adult film industry."
"I don't see any hypocrisy in Matt Sanchez's actions," Foreman said Thursday in a written statement on the marine reservist outed this week by bloggers as a gay porn actor. "As is his right, he spoke out against what he believed was bad treatment by Columbia's 'radical anti-military students.'
"Porn--gay or straight--has no ideology. Porn stars and porn consumers are Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, atheists and evangelicals," Foreman said.
Rather, he said, the real hypocrisy lies in "the failed 'don't ask, don't tell,' [which] requires Matt Sanchez and thousands of other loyal Americans to hide their sexual orientation to serve in the military," and in right-wingers "who lift a man to hero and spokesperson status until--gasp!--he is found out to be a 'faggot.' "
"The important 11 inches in this story?" Foreman asked, referring to Sanchez's reputed porn qualifications. "That is the approximate distance between berths on U.S. naval submarines, so defamatorily measured in front of TV cameras by then-senator Sam Nunn in 1993, who immorally intimated that openly gay service members could not be permitted to bunk next to straight service members.
"From that shameful episode, Nunn led Congress to adopt the 'don't ask, don't tell' law, which should now be repealed. Let's be done with officially enforced closets." (The Advocate)

Can you say gorgeous? I just got this new stamp from Hero Arts, and it matches the design in the New Fancy pants paper! This is aged flowers I believe. Check out Jacksonebelles ebay store for some new goodies from Fancy Pants here http://stores.ebay.com/Jacksonbelle-Embellishments
I colored the stamp with ink and aqua apinter in marigold, and cranberry. I then went over the image with my glitterpens, and smuged it in! Really sparkly IRL! Sentiment is embossed in gold. Ribbon is heated to curl.
I love these colors and how this turned out!

The first step is the most difficult every time. Go on, you can do it! Confusion is naturally related to decision making. There can be many factors that hinder you while looking for the way you want to lead your life.
Firstly, you can have ample options, which can create apprehensions while making the easiest decisions.
Secondly, it’s possible that you don’t see any evident options at all. Don’t worry, that’s a situation half of the population faces every day. Maintaining these points, the main fear while choosing a path for yourself is that this one decision will be the base of all others you make in your lifetime. No pressure! Just choose wisely. There is clear logic involved in this process as well. By using some simple coaching techniques, you will be able to find a way for yourself.
Never make decisions based on your present situation. When making the choice for a lifelong endeavor, look at the big picture. What outcome will treading this path give you? Will you be able to maintain healthy relationships? Does thinking of it bring you satisfaction? Ask yourself these questions and you’ll be able to identify if the path you’re taking is right for you.
The time to move forward is now! Indecision validates procrastination. If you don’t act today, you’ll end up pondering over the notion as years you by. In short, just remember the three D’s, Define, Diagnose and Design. Map out your way towards a better version of yourself, and design your life accordingly!

During the week of Jan. 20, 2020, the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) received the last unit, car 4603, of its 204-vehicle Flexity Outlook streetcar order. The LRV was unloaded at the Commission’s central Toronto Hillcrest Shops complex after a journey of nearly 900 miles on Canadian Pacific from Bombardier’s Thunder Bay, Ontario factory. The bulk of the order was built there, with eight coming from the company’s Kingston, Ontario plant (originally, 30 were planned). The contract was scheduled for completion by Dec. 31, 2019.
Toronto Transit Commission
Year-end 2019 saw the retirement of a unique, Canadian-designed and built streetcar: the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Canadian Light Rail Vehicle (CLRV) after 40 years of service, a near-record in today’s transit industry.
Mosaic Transit Group (MTG) has awarded Thales a contract for a SelTrac™ Communications Based Train Control (CBTC) signaling system for the new Finch West LRT in northwest Toronto. MTG’s contract is a DBFM (design, build, finance, maintain) project awarded by Metrolinx, with the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) as operator. The project is slated for completion and revenue service in 2023, and includes a 30-year maintenance service contract that will be performed by MTG.
The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has been experiencing significant in-service reliability issues with its fleet of new Bombardier-built Flexity Outlook LRVs.
The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and the City of Toronto recently announced that commencement of construction of the Downtown Relief Subway would be moved up by two years, perhaps to 2020. The plan would require the city committing C$325 million for design and engineering work, property acquisition, utilities relocation, etc., as well as equipment procurement and contracts tendering. Given this priority, the Relief Subway could be carrying its first passengers by 2029.
The first Bombardier Flexity Freedom LRV for Toronto’s new Eglinton Crosstown LRT arrived Tuesday, Jan. 8., on the property. Meanwhile, delivery of the Toronto Transit Commission’s much-delayed order of Flexity Outlook LRVs has improved since the opening in 2018 of a second production line at the company’s Millhaven, Ont., plant.
Design and planning work continues on Hamilton’s 10-mile (14-kilometer) LRT line, despite ongoing political uncertainty over the project’s future. Meanwhile, the planned and approved expansion of GO Train service to Grimsby, St. Catherines and Niagara Falls has experienced a recent potential setback. And on Oct. 30, the author, representing Railway Age, visited the Bombardier Transportation rail division plant at Millhaven, Ontario, located a short distance west of Kingston.
The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has announced that its fare payment for the past four decades, the Metropass, is being discontinued.
Rick Leary, recently confirmed as CEO of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC), is an American who made the move to Canada from Boston’s Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA, or “T”), initially with a 4-1/2 year stint running York Region Transit (YRT), on Toronto’s northern border.
Rick Leary has been confirmed as Chief Executive Officer of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC), following an earlier recommendation by the board. He was chosen from a lengthy list of Canadian and international applicants.

The Jabra Soulmate Max is a likeable wireless speaker with some strong selling points, but it simply doesn't justify its current $400 price tag.
The Soulmate Max is a likeable portable Bluetooth speaker with an impressive design and feature set, but it simply doesn't sound as good it should for $400.
Jabra's footwear-inspired wireless Bluetooth speaker now comes in a jumbo-size model, the Solemate Max, which retails for $400.
If you can live with its massive size, the Jabra Motion’s clear audio and loads of features are hard to resist.
One of the better on-ear headphones, the Jabra Revo combines strong sound quality with superior comfort and design.
Despite some small flaws in sound quality and a somewhat high price, superior comfort and design help the Revo Wireless distinguish itself from its Bluetooth headphone competitors.
The Jabra Solemate has a few small shortcomings, but overall it's a very solid compact Bluetooth speaker with a unique design.
At $129, the Jabra Motion is a premium Bluetooth headset to the hilt. While it may be large, it offers plenty of compelling features, including NFC pairing and a secure, comfortable fit.
Costing $129, the new Jabra Motion headset offers premium Bluetooth hands-free features such as intelligent noise cancelling and NFC pairing.
The Jabra Supreme UC isn't cheap, but it delivers excellent performance and a great way to chat hands-free over cellular and PC telephone systems.


Advantages of Buying a Prefab Home
Nowadays the new trend of owning homes is buying a prefab homes. First prefabricated homes are made in factories, and then transported to the place where the homeowner wants. The construction of prefab homes started over a century ago, but it was not until a couple of years ago that the demand of prefab homes started to grow rapidly. Most people prefer prefab homes due to the reduced construction cost, and construction time. Prefab homes have several benefits. Before buying a prefab home ensure the manufacturing company is licensed. Before you run to buy a prefab home read this article to know more about the benefits of a prefab home.
Design of prefab homes allow flexibility to a great extent. Different designs are needed to suit the many people turning to prefab. Making prefab homes in a factory allow the manufacturer to be able to design them differently according to the customer’s wishes. Different design ideas from the customers are accommodated due to the design flexibility of prefab homes. A short time is taken in the construction of prefab homes compared to the construction of brick and stoned homes. Digging and laying of foundation is the main reason Construction of traditional homes usually takes long. The problem of long construction time of Prefab homes is eliminated by constructing the homes in a factory where machines do most of the work. Also, the time wasted due to hindrances by weather conditions are eliminated by constructing prefab homes in a factory.
Compared to construction of traditional brick and stone houses it is cheap to construct a prefab home. The cost of building prefab homes is lower due to the reduced construction time. A prolonged construction time mainly leads to the increased cost of paying the workers. Also, cheap materials are used in the construction of prefab homes, and therefore the corresponding costs are reduced. The main reason that prefab homes have increasingly become popular is due to their low construction cost. Most people who are not financially abled can afford prefab homes due to the low construction costs.
Prefab homes are also eco friendly unlike traditional homes constructed using bricks and stones. Construction of prefab homes used fewer materials compared to those used in construction of traditional homes. The ability to resist wear and tear and to withstand extreme weather conditions is because Prefab homes are made of strong materials. In many countries laws concerning prefab homes are still not yet comprehensive because prefab homes is a relatively new construction idea. Compromise on the quality of the constructed prefab homes occurs, and lives of those living under the houses is endangered when corners are cut during production. With the intention of getting quick profits prefab homes manufacturers can cut corners during the construction of the home units.

New Orleans emerged victorious, 100-88, keeping pace with Oklahoma City in the proverbial race for the 8th seed out West, while the Wolves took sole possession of the NBA's worst record. The latter is thanks in part to New York's inexplicable win last night over Atlanta, 112-108.
New Orleans can clinch a postseason bid with a win over San Antonio at home on Wednesday.
Oklahoma City, meanwhile, can reach the playoffs by defeating Minnesota at Target Center in the season finale--but only if New Orleans loses to San Antonio.
Why even play the game at all? Oklahoma City really needs a win and the Wolves would benefit by losing. There would be no need for anyone to write a recap; everyone would be happy.
Yesterday, Flip Saunders started Zach LaVine; Lorenzo Brown; Andrew Wiggins; Adreian Payne and Justin Hamilton--Chase Budinger, Robbie Hummel and Arinze Onuaku made appearances off the bench. Garnett, Kevin Martin, Gary Neal, Shabazz Muhammad and Anthony Bennett were unavailable, dressed in business casual attire on the sideline. Ricky Rubio and Nikola Pekovic were elsewhere, recovering from surgery and not in attendance.
Chase Budinger has made the most of substantial and consistent playing time--he's even played more minutes this season than in his previous two years with Minnesota combined.
During the 630 minutes Budinger has played since the All-Star Break, the Wolves have scored at a rate of 103.3 points per 100 possessions while giving up 107 points per 100 possessions to their opponents. Minnesota's Offensive Rating slipped to 97.9 while their Defensive Rating dropped to 111.7 in the 729 minutes Budinger has spent on the bench.
Individually, Budinger averaged 12.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game over the previous 20 matchups--shooting 49.7% from the field and 39.7% from three point range during that span. These figures are comparable to his production tallied in his best season with Houston, when he averaged 9.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists per outing behind 44.2% field goal shooting (and a 40.2% 3PT FG%).
Budinger continued his resurgence to form by connecting on 9-of-10 attempts from the charity stripe en route to 18 points against New Orleans--all before the start of the final frame. However, he limped away from the court on Monday with a sprained left ankle after having landed awkwardly on this play.
Saunders called timeout after Budinger made the ensuing free throws to remove him from the game.
It is uncertain whether Budinger will be ready to play by Wednesday.
What should I talk about now...?
Kevin Garnett's return to Minnesota has, other than the nostalgia, been pretty underwhelming but I don't think anyone expects that his retirement is imminent. As it was mentioned on this website yesterday the feeling is Garnett will return for at least one more season. Because of the injury to Budinger the Wolves may need KG to at least suit up, if not play against Oklahoma City in the season finale.
The league requires teams to dress eight players for each contest.
Flip Saunders joked postgame that someone from the media might have to suit up against Oklahoma City tomorrow.
Although it won't happen forfeiting might be in the Wolves' best interest--this would unquestionably an appropriate way to end the season. I'm not even sure that's a possible scenario that could occur.
Anyway, nobody wants to see anyone else ultimately end up unnecessarily hurt, or injured.
The season is almost over.
The Wolves might finish in last place.

And Nine's the Devil, his old self
A young, spiky blonde haired man sat with his head in his hands in a dark, dank sewer. His pain was so great that it almost seeped into the very air surrounding him. Should he raise his head, he'd see a great golden gate being held shut by only a single sheet of paper with the word seal inscribed upon it in Kanji. Behind the gate, a silhouette could be seen, with nine shadowy tails flowing behind it, and a pair of glowing red, merciless eyes. This form belonged to none other than the Kyuubi no Kitsune, the Nine Tailed Fox and the most powerful of the nine Biju. The young man was his jailer, the current Toad Sage Uzumaki Naruto, and the sewer was his mindscape.
He was currently in a state of shock from seeing Hyuuga Hinata, a girl from his graduating class, declare her love for him then promptly get stabbed by the man who killed Jiraiya, Pain. He felt worse than he ever had before, a bond being shown that he hadn't known about, then being violently snuffed out by someone who seemed to be killing his precious people, one by one. First Jiraiya, then Kakashi, and now Hinata. His grief made his mind wander, and the water beneath his feet began to show memories of his life.
His early life had been hard. Set up in a private apartment by the Sandaime Hokage as soon as the orphanage had raised him enough to be self sufficient, he'd had few friends. Most adults avoided him and spoke in muttered whispers when they thought he was out earshot. At the Ninja Academy, things weren't much better, since the majority of the students had been told to be wary of him by their parents, and those who hadn't been told to, followed the crowd in leaving him alone, trying not to lose their friends. At least the adults were never stupid enough to try to attack him, to do so would invoke the wrath of the Hokage, who was as protective over Naruto as he was over his own kin. Hatred was useless towards a child who never had a choice over his fate, and so indifference was practiced. Ignoring the problem in the hope that it would go away. Unfortunately, it prompted the young Jinchuuriki to play pranks on the village as he desperately craved even the slightest bit of attention. Indifference cuts deeper than hatred, it numbs the soul like ice, while hatred burns around you like fire but rarely goes deeper than skin.
The night he passed his genin exam, his world was turned upside down. He'd finally learned a bunshin technique, a high level one at that, and he felt confident about passing the course. Unfortunately, that was when Mizuki attacked Iruka, and told Naruto about the Kyuubi. He'd run off in confusion, only to hear Iruka's heartfelt speech about how he was a precious student, and not a demon. In response, Naruto attacked Mizuki, going a little too far in defence of the first ninja outside of the Hokage to acknowledge him, and beating the man into unconsciousness.
On his first C-rank mission, he got a taste of the true life of a shinobi. He met Momochi Zabuza, an A-rank missing nin from Kirigakure, and a boy called Haku, who turned out to be working for Zabuza. The boy taught Naruto about precious people, then tried to take away one of Naruto's by attacking Sasuke. The anger that he felt allowed Kyuubi's chakra to flow into him for the first time, strengthening his muscles and healing his wounds. When he realised that Haku was the masked ninja he was fighting, his rage dissipated, and the foxes influence fled from his mind, though he never realised that he'd tapped into its chakra.
After the snake freak had sealed it away, and the pervy sage had unsealed it, he'd encountered the chakra again. Only this time, he'd visited his mindscape for the first time, after being thrown off a cliff into a ravine, in a desperate attempt to deliberately tap into the fox's power. He'd come face to face with rage incarnate, a hideously powerful being who had a malignant, malevolent intelligence just lurking below the waves of anger and fury. He'd withstood the wave of chakra that threatened to blow him away, and brazenly demanded its chakra as rent. The Kyuubi allowed more chakra to flow through the seal; all the while he could almost feel the amusement and disdain the great Biju felt for him. As the chakra filled his system, he caught a glimpse of the true nature of his prisoner.
It was times like these when he could understand the villager's fear. It was times like these when the Kyuubi seemed so alien and unlike anything else he'd ever known. It was times like these he could admit that he believed the Kyuubi was the devil himself. The sheer power that the mere presence of the Kyuubi gave out was immense. It was as unstoppable as the sea, never ending as time itself, never tamed or controlled, only held at bay temporarily or vaguely directed.
When he was betrayed by his best friend and teammate, Uchiha Sasuke, he'd been overpowered by the Scion of the Uchiha, forcing him to use the Kyuubi's chakra once more. As the Uchiha's Sharingan awoke to its three tomoe form, Naruto had been beaten down even with the foul chakra surrounding him, forcing the Kyuubi to push more chakra through the seal and a single blood red tail to form behind him. The resulting boost in speed and power would've been enough had the Uchiha not tapped into the power of the cursed seal bestowed upon him by the snake freak Orochimaru. Sasuke left Naruto bloody and unconscious, unable to bring himself to kill his friend.
After healing up from his wounds, the pervy sage Jiraiya took him on a training trip to hone his skills and prepare him for the attempts of Akatsuki to capture him. It turned out that the Yondaime had given Jiraiya the means to alter the seal slightly, a key to either tighten or loosen the seal. Jiraiya chose to loosen it, reasoning that Naruto may need to access the potent chakra of the Kyuubi to defeat some of his future enemies. However, upon loosening the seal, it became apparent that this was a mistake, as Naruto lost conscious control and saw everything as a potential threat, launching pre-emptive strikes against Jiraiya and severely wounding him before he attached a suppression seal to Naruto and the chakra receded. According to Jiraiya later, he'd had a total of four tails and turned a sizeable area of grassland into a crater. They agreed to not meddle with the seal again, as the results were unpredictable to say the least.
After returning to Konoha and learning of Gaara's kidnap at the hands of Akatsuki, he'd rushed off to try to rescue the only person he knew who could understand his pain. After they found him limp and in the hands of two men, he'd chased after the one who took the body in a rage. His anger peaked when they managed to recover Gaara and discovered he was dead, and two tails of Kyuubi's chakra leaked out before Kakashi could suppress it with a seal given to him by Jiraiya. When Chiyo sacrificed her life to resurrect Gaara and required more chakra, he gladly volunteered some of his own to save one who was a brother in spirit.
On meeting Orochimaru again, he accessed the Kyuubi's chakra almost instantly, his rage at the Sannin allowing first one, then three full tails of chakra to appear. After three tails proved to not be enough to injure him and he started to compare him to Sasuke, his fury increased and a fourth tail appeared, forcing him to turn into a miniature Kyuubi lookalike, complete with evil grinning face, a malicious aura and under the influence of the Kyuubi. This form proved capable of injuring the annoying man and attempted to blow him away with a powerful compressed ball of chakra. This was barely blocked and Naruto was beaten back by the Kusanagi, but not scratched of harmed in anyway. Unfortunately, Sakura was nearby and ran to him begging him to stop. The influenced Naruto proceeded to attack her, and was only stopped by Yamato's Biju suppression abilities. Yamato later told Naruto later of what happened and not to use the Kyuubi's chakra again if he wanted to not injure his comrades. Naruto was horrified and agreed instantly.
When they finally succeeded in catching up to Sasuke, the Kyuubi tried to influence him once more. Naruto argued with it, and told it that he'd never use its chakra again. The Kyuubi managed to partially manifest outside the seal, and commented on how he'd relied on it before, and how he would again. Naruto's will held until Sasuke arrived in his mindscape and drove the Kyuubi back behind the seal, ignoring the comments about Uchiha Madara and how he'd regret it if he killed Naruto.
Remembering these events reminded Naruto about his present problems, and the pain he felt for Hinata. He asked for anyone to stop the pain, and the Kyuubi responded, its entrancing voice telling him to surrender his heart and it would make the pain go away. Becoming tempted by this offer, the seal on his stomach distorted and twisted, the spiral turning into a hole, looking like an eye weeping blood which gathered around him. In the pool of darkness, he caught a glimpse of eight tails destroying a gigantic prison made of rocks. The Kyuubi enticed him to remove the seal and take vengeance.
He stood; hand almost on the sealed paper, ready to release the Kyuubi upon the world once more. As his hand touched it, he felt a hand on his arm and his world vanished in a yellow flash.
And cut! Good place to end it I think. This is it, the last chapter of Counting Biju. It's been fun to write, and hopefully this chapter is up to snuff. Overshot my target of the end of October slightly, but this has given me something to do on my 7 hour train ride home.
If you can't tell, this is set after Hinata got stabbed, while being trapped by the Chibaku Tensei, and unleashing the six and eight tailed forms. Thanks to myth buster for the idea.
Once the Rikudo Sennin was outed as a Jinchuuriki for the Juubi, I was slightly disappointed that I didn't start this idea later, as I found a rhyme which went to 10, where the last line was "And ten's the devil his own sel'". Just as fitting really, but hey, no use crying over spilt milk. Thanks to all reviewers, it's always nice to get a response and some ideas from people.
Time to decide for New Beginnings now, and whether I should start a new story. Ah well, no rest for the wicked I suppose.

How Long Do Dissolvable Stitches Last? According to the Journal of Dairy, Veterinary & Animal Research: “Synthetic absorbable sutures loose most of their tensile strength within 60 days and eventually disappear from the tissues because they have been hydrolyzed.”
How long do dissolvable stitches last in dogs?
Glue generally will dissolve or grow off over a period of 10 to 14 days. In all cases, it is important to prevent your pet from licking at incisions, pulling at sutures or staples. Use an Elizabethan Collar to prevent trauma to the incision if necessary. For more information on sutures, talk to your veterinarian!
Do vets use dissolvable stitches?
The vet can use dissolvable stitches, the type that do just as their name says, and traditional stitches, which need to be removed manually by the vet.
What if my dog’s stitches don’t dissolve?
Your vet may also opt for dissolvable stitches or surgical adhesive, which won’t need to be removed. If, however, the closure is achieved with non-dissolving stitches or staples, a vet will typically remove them at the 2-week mark for a sterilization operation.
How long should stitches stay in dogs?
In general most skin stitches (also called sutures) are removed 7-14 days after the operation depending on the type of surgery performed. You will be instructed when is the most appropriate time for your dog.
Should I pull out dissolvable stitches?
Should you ever remove them? A person should not attempt to remove any stitches without their doctor’s approval. There is generally no need to remove dissolvable stitches as they will eventually disappear on their own.
How do you tell if stitches are healing properly?
3 Ways to Know the Difference Between Healing and Infected Surgical Wounds
- Fluid. Good: It is normal for a surgical wound site to have some fluid come out of the incision area – this is one of the ways our bodies naturally heal themselves. …
- Redness. …
- Raised Skin.
How do dissolvable stitches come out?
Dissolvable stitches that poke through the skin may fall off themselves, perhaps in the shower from the force of the water or by rubbing against the fabric of your clothing. That’s because they’re continuing to dissolve under your skin.
What color are dissolvable stitches?
Generally absorbable sutures are clear or white in colour. They are often buried by threading the suture under the skin edges and are only visible as threads coming out of the ends of the wound. The suture end will need snipping flush with the skin at about 10 days.
How do vets remove stitches?
Removing stitches from your pet is generally a pretty easy process. It’s usually not much harder than snipping the thread with scissors and gently pulling them out. However, you should be sure that your pet’s wound is fully healed and that you have the go-ahead from the vet to remove the stitches yourself.
What happens if a stitch is left in a dog?
If you accidentally leave part of the suture in the skin and are unable to pull it out, don’t panic. If it’s the dissolvable suture, it will slowly absorb over the next few months. … I’ve seen dogs try to eat the sutures/their own scabs. It’s gross, but nothing to worry about.
Can dissolvable stitches not dissolve?
The time it takes for dissolvable or absorbable stitches to disappear can vary. Most types should start to dissolve or fall out within a week or two, although it may be a few weeks before they disappear completely. Some may last for several months.
How do you tell if stitches are infected?
If your stitches have become infected, you may notice the following symptoms:
- redness or swelling around the stitches.
- an increase in pain or tenderness at the wound.
- warmth at or around the site.
- blood or pus leaking from the stitches, which may have a foul odor.
- swollen lymph nodes.
Is 14 days too long for stitches?
In general, the greater the tension across a wound, the longer the sutures should remain in place. As a guide, on the face, sutures should be removed in 5-7 days; on the neck, 7 days; on the scalp, 10 days; on the trunk and upper extremities, 10-14 days; and on the lower extremities, 14-21 days.
How do you know if your dog’s stitches are healing?
How Do I Know If My Dog’s Spay Incision Is Healed? You’ll know a spay incision has healed when redness is gone from the incision and no staples or sutures are needed to hold the wound together. There should be no tenderness on or near the incision area, and it should be free of all discharge.
How do you know when to take your dog’s cone off?

Answer / manash ranjan jena
When a mass flows through a vibrating pipe, Coriolis forces
are generated which bend and twist the pipe. These very
small pipe deformations are measured by optimally mounted
sensors and electronically evaluated. Because the measured
phase shift of the sensor signals is proportional to the
mass flowrate, the Coriolis Mass Flowmeter measures the
mass flowrate in the flowmeter directly.
|Is This Answer Correct ?||33 Yes||0 No|
Answer / hussain

Favorable weather has been good news for farmers growing winter canola in the Southern Plains this year.
Approximately 110,000 acres of the oilseed crop, the most in its short production history in the region, is growing in North Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, says Gene Neuens, Producers Cooperative Oil Mill (PCOM) field representative at Oklahoma City.
"We have looked at the crop from the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandle areas and everywhere else," Neuens said. "With recent winter freezes, the crop is going into its dormant stage.”
Earlier stages of the 2010 crop also fared well. “We had good moisture for planting last September and a warm fall that permitted the crop to grow well until cold weather set in."
PCOM and Oklahoma State University Extension specialists are keeping an eye on some minor problems, Neuens said. Some fields have canola plants too small and other fields have plants that are too big.
"A lot of cold, dry weather could be harmful to those smaller plants," he said, "and the larger plants will need extra nitrogen to keep them growing well when spring temperatures start the crop growing again."
But overall, the 2010 canola crop is on track for its winter growth hiatus.
Some insect depredation occurred in the fall in a few areas, according to Josh Bushong, OSU Extension Service specialist for canola production.
Bushong, Enid, Okla., began working with farmers in northwest Oklahoma earlier this year.
He has observed limited insect problems in canola fields from diamondback moth larvae and armyworms, he said.
"There was a need to use insecticides on a few fields to control the pests," Bushong said. "But in most cases, the crop was growing well enough to avoid applying insecticides. We have not seen aphids in the canola crop this year."
Bushong is pleased with the condition of the crop so far. While the crop started out with adequate soil moisture earlier in the fall, he has seen some areas where more moisture will be needed when the crop starts growing in the spring.
There has been much interest in winter canola production this year for several reasons, but two stand out in particular, Neuens said.
"Winter canola was specifically chosen less than a decade ago as a crop to reduce the huge weed problem winter wheat producers were fighting in the Southern Plains. Originating from spring canola varieties typically grown in northern states and Canada, crop breeders developed new varieties of the crop that would grow in winter months, similar to hard red winter wheat, which is grown on millions of acres across the U. S."
Decades of continuous wheat production helped create infestations of perennial weeds like cheatgrass, winter rye and other plants whose population grew each year in wheat fields.
As the weeds spread throughout the Plains states, farmers found that herbicide application was often too expensive to control the weeds.
OSU weed scientist, Dr. Tom Peeper, along with other agronomists at OSU and Kansas State University and seed production companies, began a cooperative effort six years ago to develop winter canola as a viable solution to the winter wheat weed problem.
Scientists found winter canola, an oilseed crop, featured good growing characteristics for the same areas where wheat had been grown for decades. Canola has a large taproot able to seek deep soil moisture in dryland farming conditions, and when planted after wheat it breaks up the growth cycle of the weeds competing with wheat.
Growers are losing less to dockage when they follow canola with wheat. Weed seeds found in wheat seed taken to market when the wheat is harvested each spring will sharply reduce prices paid for wheat.
Canola also has proven a marketing success.
When winter canola was first planted in enough acres to help control weeds in winter wheat, finding a reliable market for the crop was difficult; some of the larger canola producers sent seed as far as Mexico to be processed.
Marketing problems were solved when the Producers Cooperative Oil Mill, which has been processing cottonseed for varied markets for more than 64 years, entered the canola marketing arena.
Now, farmers have local grain terminals where they can deliver canola seed, bought by PCOM. Prices paid for canola usually run $2 to $3 per bushel more than winter wheat. Currently, cash price for winter canola is $9.45 per bushel compared to $6.92 per bushel for winter wheat.
Winter canola production in the Southern Plains is expected to increase as more farmers place it in their diversified crop program, Neuens said.

For the first time in 25 years, Caterpillar Inc. has made a major overhaul to its hydraulic excavator line, starting with its 20-ton excavators.
The company has introduced three new machines in this size class which have the same core design featuring integrated technologies, electrohydraulics and a redesigned operator cab.
Inclusion of a ‘digital heart’ on each machine provides 15% lower owning and operating costs, 25% lower fuel consumption and 45% improved efficiency.
Zach Kauk, Vice President, Excavation at Caterpillar Inc., says that for the first time the company is standardizing the use of electronically controlled engines and electrohydraulics across the entire hydraulic excavator line.
Going forward Caterpillar will be implementing its next generation excavator program to additional size classes—incorporating the standard digital heart and electrohydraulic system, as well as productivity and semi-autonomous features.

A government-owned house that was nominated for heritage listing 19 years ago, citing its 1940s-era rose garden and original internal features, has had no sign of significant rose plantings for at least a decade.
The O'Connor house was nominated to the heritage register in April 2000 by its then tenant, who said it was a "creative testament to post war architecture of its day".
The public housing tenant's nomination said the house retained original features, including cupboards, the mantelpiece, door handles and mid-20th century light fittings.
A year ago, the government sold the house to private owners for $1.29 million and photographs from its real estate listing do not show the nominated features.
The Community Services Directorate did not say whether the heritage features had been maintained or were still in place when the house was sold in March 2018.
The directorate said the new owners were aware of the heritage nomination as it was picked up in the conveyancing process as part of the sale.
The house is among a list of places nominated to the ACT heritage register but yet to be considered. A Harry Seidler-designed house in Deakin was placed on the register last year, after being nominated 18 years ago. The registration is now being challenged in the courts by the owners.
The nomination said the O'Connor double brick cottage was "the only known and comparatively intact example of its type" and had rose plantings in the front garden from 1948 and a cottage garden in the backyard.
However, there are no rose plants visible in the front yard. Google street view imagery shows there were no significant rose plantings visible in 2009.
Photographs taken in February 2018 when the house was listed for sale show a bare backyard and incomplete light fittings. The bathroom and kitchen were not in original condition.
A backyard shed, identified in the nomination as being in good condition, is worn and weathered in the photographs.
A spokeswoman for the directorate did not say answer specific questions from The Canberra Times about whether the government had removed the rose garden or when. Nor did she answer questions about what the directorate had done to ensure its nominated heritage values were retained until the Heritage Council came to consider it.
But a spokeswoman said for the ACT government said the heritage status of a public housing property informs whether Housing ACT kept or sold a property.
"Where the registration is particularly restrictive or requires costly maintenance, Housing ACT will generally sell the asset," she said.
The new owners did not comment.
Meanwhile, the owners of several other nominated houses were unaware their properties had been nominated for heritage listing when The Canberra Times called this month.
In one case, the owner of a Forrest home thought the nomination had been withdrawn, while one other owner, who had lived in the Aranda house since it was built in the early-1970s, said while there had been talk of nominating the house, he was not aware it had been nominated.
ACT Heritage Council chair David Flannery said he could not comment on the O'Connor rose garden.
He said the council and its staff worked hard to reduce the nomination list but there was a limit to the number of places that could be assessed in each meeting.
Houses were assessed one at a time because there was a higher risk that their registration would be appealed, which takes staff away from other assessments, he said.
"On the flip side of that, people and groups keep nominating new places, which shows the support given by the community for heritage protection."
Mr Flannery said nominated properties triggered a referral to the council when a development application was lodged, but was unable to comment on the specific property.
An owner or tenant could have modified the garden without a development application.
Mr Flannery said the council considered more than 600 referrals a year and lots of good work was completed by people making additions and alterations to their nominated properties.
"The registration process is not proposing to freeze something in time," he said.
Mr Flannery said the nomination process had changed since 2004, when new heritage legislation was introduced. It now requires a more comprehensive nomination.
He said owners were sent a letter when their houses were nominated and when the process to review the nomination began.
A final notification of the review's outcome was also provided to property owners, he said.
There are 23 private homes nominated to the ACT heritage register among 94 outstanding nominations, which has fallen from 108 in June 2017 and 136 in June 2016.
