Hey retard (Tony) it wasn’t my press release. It was my stepdaughter’s name in the paper. I put a link to her being in the paper - I am not that petty. I would link to anyplace that posted it - to think that it mattered who was in competition with who mattered is very short-sighted and petty.

And by the way, Newstreamz (San Marcos Local News) is and always will be, my baby.

Comment on Cameron’s success is…. well, elementary. by Davad

Davad — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 00:32:58 +0000

I enjoyed Avatar’s story more on the second viewing. I remembered that Cameron always seems to have an evil corporation in it. He seems to subscribe to the dystopian corporate takeover viewpoint of the future. Of course it was gorgeous. After a few minutes The 3D melted away as a trick and just added depth to the story, literally.

Sherlock Holmes was fun. I liked the setup for the fight scenes where you see how fast he plans out his attack and then the extremely quick execution of said plan. I did think it drug in a few places, although not terribly so. Rachel McAdams is cute, but I don’t think she is strong enough to hold her own against RDJ’s Holmes. She seems too young for the part.

Comment on Charmed or Cursed? It’s all in how you look at it. by Hap Mansfield

Hap Mansfield — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 03:37:20 +0000

What is charmed is your outlook. When you see life as an adventure and not a chore you have to get through, life seems to respond with some good and some not so good. If you accept it all with the indomitable good spirits of a Chris Doelle- well, you can call it charmed but I call it well-directed. Let life happen and keep a good thought…the other choices drain your energy.
You’ve got a truly happy balance.
And I’m not just saying that because I’m your #1 stalker and the Stalker union rules say we have to.

Congratulations Chris. This is a great accomplishment. Your paragraph about finding happiness gives me such hope. A personal inner happiness is my goal and I do believe that feeling better about myself and exercising regularly is the key. I just bought a bike a few weeks ago and while I’m no where near riding what you do I love getting on it and it is the most consistent I have ever been with any form of exercise. Keep it up because you are a role model.

I whole-heartily agree with you. Although I was a fan of the graphic novel, the frames, and dialogue were taken word for word, and scene for scene 99% of the time. They did change “1″ thing, but that’s it. Was it necessary? Probably not, but Zack Snyder showed the story quite a bit of care, Alan Moore(the novel’s writer) should be proud. So, two-thumbs up here as well.

That’s awesome. For the past couple of months, I would go to my brother’s music academy and wait while he got done with his classes, so I decided that I may as well take a class while I was there. I’ve learned quite a bit pretty fast. If you are interested, the class is on Mondays at 6 p.m. and you can call him at 512-353-2007. He’s also available for private lessons. Anyway, aside from the plug for lessons, I also finally bought a guitar so that I could take it home and practice now. Looks like you and I both have this and the fitness stuff in common now. Good luck.

Comment on To Neti or not to Neti? by Stacey

Stacey — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 16:56:04 +0000

I’ve had allergies and sinus problems my whole life, and I can tell you - washing my nose is NOT snorting water in the shower! Just like brushing my teeth is NOT swishing and spitting water out of my mouth. I use that Nasopure bottle and their stuff, and since I’ve been doing this nasal wash thing every time I brush my teeth (it’s just part of the daily self-care regime) I have had only a rare sinus infection. And it does feel good. Gets that snot out that the nose-blow just can’t clear. My nose problems get worse in the spring - I ride a Harley - and the pollen was rushing up there at 60mph - you should SEE what I get out if I wash right after a ride! Neti is ridiculous - I have to pretty much stand on my head to get it to go through, and it feels really wimpy. So I like my Nasopure bottle. Maybe because I’m a control freak…I don’t know. Anyway, it lets me keep riding - and I LIVE TO RIDE! Go Nasopure! And I say go wash your nose in the shower like a man….boogers in the nose are so NOT sexy.

Comment on Something is definitely happening with Neti by hana solomon, md

Few points to share:
Nasopure is not just salt and baking soda, but rather pharmaceutical grade sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate. Yes, on the surface, these compounds are similar to what is purchased at the grocery store but if one were to compare the 2 substances visually and chemically, as i have the following are found. Nasopure mix is very fine granules, powder-like which dissolves completely, feels ’smoother’ and is free of any trace minerals or other compounds.
Try the difference, compare the washing.
My second point is this. The dizziness you experienced during the second washing side is most like due to the way you were holding the bottle. I bet you were pointing it upward rather than along the nasal floor as directed and illustrated. This encourages to sinuses to get flooded and can cause a temporary ‘ what is that feeling’. I know this because we humans hold things differently in each hand (when not held correctly). Occasionally, the user uses too much force either during washing or during blowing the nose. these can contribute to that dizziness.
I have found, those who think ‘I’ll squeeze harder’ or ‘I’ll blow my nose more forcefully’ often have a less pleasant experience. Gentle, slowly, and daily. that is the way to stay well.
I look forward to your feedback. Dr Hana

The common wisdom behind nasal cleansing is simple, clean the body’s filter, it is our great defender. The nasal cavity’s cilia filter the impurities and irritants: pollen, mold, dust, viruses, bacteria, smoke, pollution and chemicals. Exposure to these irritants cause blockage, back-up and infections. Daily cleansing of the nose maintains quality of life, decreases medication use and reduces doctor visits. Nasal washing offers numerous benefits, including reduction of allergy problems, improved breathing, and elimination of post-nasal drip, sinusitis AND reduced incidence of the common cold. Many have experienced an improved sense of smell and taste and deeper, more relaxed breathing, snoring is reduced, improved sleep quality, avoidance of surgery for ear tubes and sinus and even asthma is best controlled when the nose is maintained clean.

Practitioners of yoga have used “Neti,” for centuries. There have been many design improvements over the neti, mostly because consumers are demanding a better system. As a teacher of neti for years, I used feedback and personal medication experience to develop a child friendly modern nose wash. The overall goal is to have a flow of warm buffered saline water inserted into one nostril and exit the opposite one. The water drains out, flushing the nasal passages thoroughly. The Neti offers a gravity controlled flow while Nasopure offers user control of pressure and flow. If the solution flow is well controlled, it draws out the mucus from the sinus cavities, flushing them clean.

There are many nasal wash products available THE modern neti is Nasopure, comes with premixed hypertonic buffered saline packets. Nasopure can do NO HARM when used as directed yet offers convenience, compliance and more importantly, the most effective nose wash available due to the design. Nasopure offers gentle positive pressure guided by the user which results in a plunging of the sinus and inner ear cavities. Some may be misguided and believe that positive pressure nose washes can cause harm. This is akin to believing that a toothbrush shouldn’t be used because it can cause harm to your gums. A toothbrush, just like anything else can cause harm if misused. You could develop bleeding gums when brushing too hard.

Dr. Hana has 20 plus years of teaching patients about nasal irrigation. She has lectured on the subject. She is the ‘experts expert’ on nasal washing. Nasopure IS safe for anyone over the age of 2 when used as directed. Nasopure is the ONLY system that delivers the solution along the nasal floor, same path as the air we breathe. All other systems flush or dribble into the sinuses. Ideal nose washing does NOT wash the dirt from the nasal passages INTO the sinuses. Over 100,000 users, both young and old have reported how effective and gentle Nasopure is.

Occasionally, a single opinion is printed and hence, misinformation is perpetuated. We at Nasopure wish to ‘clear the air’ regarding nasal washing systems. Any washing is better than no washing but offering safety, convenience and effectiveness is our goal.
Others agree with us. Nasopure Nasal Wash was mentioned in Women’s World, Health Magazine, LA Family Magazine, Good Housekeeping, and Parents Magazine as the nose wash of choice!
Check it out and be well, Dr Hana

Doesn’t it suck when you’re trying to eat healthy and something like a bag of cheetos comes along and messes you up. I’m in the same boat. About 2 years ago I started noticing that the things I ate were actually starting to affect my waistline. I used to be blessed somehow and for the longest time, I would eat anything I wanted and still not be able to break 200 lbs. Then all of a sudden things changed. I used to eat a candy bar a day, at least 3 sodas, pizza, hamburgers, whatever but I started gaining weight. I ended up going from not being able to break 200 to gaining up to 244 lbs. and then a lightbulb went on and I realized that I had to change my lifestyle a bit and my eating habits if I wanted to change things. We have diabetes in my family. My grandparents had it, my dad had it and my mom has it. I saw what my dad went through, having to give himself insulin shots every day and wanted no part of that, so I talked to my doctor a bit and we came up with a diet that limited or excluded a lot of things I was used. For the most part, I limit carbs and sugar. If I want bread, it’s got to be whole grain or whole wheat. For drinks, I try to stick to just tea, water or 100% fruit juice. For lunch, I try to eat salads at least 3 times a week. Italian used to be my favorite, but because of the carbs, I have to exclude the pasta. Things like chips, candy bars, ice cream etc.. are all gone. I’ve gotta tell you, it has not been easy but now I’m just used to it. People always feel bad when they eat stuff like that in front of me, but it doesn’t even faze me. Don’t get me wrong though, once in a while I have weak moments. I had not had pizza in forever and that was one of my favorite things (I used to be able to take down an entire medium pepperoni lovers thin & crispy) so for my birthday I told my family I wanted to go to pizza hut, but would go back on my diet the day after. As you probably know, it takes more than just dieting so now I also play basketball for a 2 hours once a week and one thing that has helped me more than I expected is if I find myself in my living room just sitting and watching tv or something, during the commercials I’ll do something simple like crunches or pushups. Anyway, I’m now wavering around 130. I’m trying to get down at least 10 more lbs. but I’ve learned that continuing to eat healthy and exercise as much as I do only helps to maintain my weight now and I have to get in more exercise and try to reduce any weak moments to continue to lose. BTW, my brother who had worse eating habits and total lack of exercise made the same choice I did not too long ago and he’s probably lost 50-60 lbs. Anyway to make a long story…well, too late for that, keep doing what you’re doing. It takes a lot, but I’m sure you’re seeing results already. If not, keep with it, it’s only a matter of time.

Comment on Like strawberry icing with a bite by Michael

I’ve got a friend in New York who buys a case of this stuff any time he comes down. I believe they only sell it in Texas and he grew up on it, so he has to get his fix. I used to drink it a lot, but I’ve been trying to remove sodas from my diet for a while. I’ve probably had about 6 altogether in the last year and a half. It just took one conversation with a doctor when my mom was in the hospital about a year ago. My brother on the other hand has not had one in over two years.

I love the analogy. I definitely agree that we are being fed crap. I take it a step further by liking Palin to whip cream (nothing but fluff-air) we still get crap underneath that icing no matter how one dices it. it is a sad day for the diving community to vote someone because she is super frigging easy on the eyes… yes i am voting because in action is not an option… Voting C-dogg for prez and the super hot mom for veep. folks remember you can write in who you want in.

Remember us little peeps C-Dogg… remeber who got you there.

UPDATE: I tried the Cheetos - nothing special. Its just more of a toned-down version of regular Cheetos.

The honeydew however was excellent.

Chris,
I too am a HUGE fan of Life on Mars. I’ve seen the pilot from the new ABC series and it’s the same scripts as the BBC version.

Colm Meaney (Star Trek’s Chief O’Brian) get to be Gene Hunt and does a mighty fine job in my opinion.

So glad to find out we have something else in common other than a love of great music.

Actually I rated a couple more films and corrected one I had wrong and Dave and I are now Soul Mates as well - haha. I am guessing that may bump up the rating between you and I know as well.

The only thing close to a chance to change things is a long term approach… Vote out EVERYONE that holds office - do it for EVERY election for the next ten years. I don’t care if it is the dog catcher, if you can vote on it - vote the suckers out.

Then, maybe - we might get some people in the office that remember they are PUBLIC servants, not big business lapdogs.

I got you and definitely empathize with your situation. In the end, nothing that you or I say is going to change what happens. We (collectively) have been screwed over by everyone except the hard workers of the world like you and I.

I doubt that Wachovia is going away without the bailout package, although it will surely change names.

Nothing that you or I say about the bailout is going to change the outcome - but while my country gets dumped on, I am definitely going to do the only thing I can, which is bitch about it.

I don’t drink kool-aid.
I work for Wachovia Securities, formerly A.G. Edwards, a division of Wachovia Corp. Been here for 19 years. I get to see first-hand how events affect the financial markets. No one is bailing me out. Most people who work for financial corporations are like me ~ just average, hard-working tax payers.
Now Citigroup and Wells Fargo are fighting over who gets Wachovia Corp. Whoopee… I need Dramamine to counteract this crazy-ass ride that has been this entire week. Without the bailout package (and no I haven’t read, it, I’ve been working my ass off), I, like millions of others, might be out of a job soon. With or without the bailout, I’m paying… Without it, I’d lose my retirement and maybe my job…. With it, I’ll be paying for it in taxes, same as you. I could be wrong, but I’d rather be wrong WITH my job than right WITHOUT it.

Like any of this crap matters anymore. The government just completed the biggest dump on America that it ever has. I feel so saved now. Both candidates voted for our precious bailout. No one is ever going to win an election at the national level that will actually be able to do something honest and good for the people. Dave angy…Dave smash…Dave sad…
