Similarly, the MarkUp.io Chrome extension allows professionals to create MarkUps of entire web pages just like they’d bookmark an interesting blog article. All reviews take place online and are accessible to all project members. There is no need to download any additional software. Once the invitee accesses the MarkUp link, they can click anywhere on the deliverable to leave contextual comments, called pins. MarkUps can then be shared via link or email with anyone. With MarkUp.io, users drag and drop deliverables onto their workspace to create MarkUps, link-enabled shareable copies of their content. This enables users to mark up web pages with the click of a button. We included MarkUp.io in our Chrome tools list because of its powerful Chrome extension.

The most recent estimates place the prevalence of smoking among adults in the United States at 17.8%, a rate that has been falling precipitously since the 1964 Surgeon General Report when the prevalence rate was double today’s rates. ![]() The main emphasis of this paper is to present a thorough review of treatment efficacy/effectiveness studies, with attention to the substantial gaps in the literature and recommendations for further research.Ĭompared with the general population, the prevalence of cigarette smoking among PLWHA is high. Specifically, this article reviews the current state of the literature on HIV/AIDS and tobacco use, including prevalence and health implications. The present review addresses the research gaps that have become more evident as a result of recent successes in reducing HIV/AIDS-related mortality. 7, 8 Given the potential for reduced mortality using ARTs, there is an increasing focus on modifiable health risk factors such as smoking that have the potential to improve health and quality of life. Furthermore, certain classes of ARTs may increase the risk for cardiovascular disease and myocardial infarction, particularly in combination with smoking. 6 Thus, behavioral factors such as smoking, diet, and exercise may have commanded diminished importance in the prior research climate. Mortality from HIV/AIDS has dropped substantially in the past two decades due to the development of highly effective antiretroviral medications (ARTs), essentially making HIV/AIDS a chronic, manageable disease in many cases. This dearth of studies might be a result of the nature of HIV/AIDS as an illness. 3–5 However, despite the high-risk nature of smoking among PLWHA, relatively few studies have systematically examined treatment efforts to reduce smoking in this population. Recent studies reveal that nearly two-thirds of HIV+ smokers wish to quit smoking. 1Īs dire as the risk appears for the general population of smokers, the impact of cigarette smoking on people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) is substantially higher due to the overall health impact of HIV/AIDS and relatively high rates of smoking among this group. 1 Second, about 18% of the adult population of the United States smokes cigarettes, meaning that the elevated health risks of smoking affect a large number of people. First, among the general population, cigarette smokers have significantly increased risk for numerous cancers (eg, lung, liver, larynx, esophagus, and colorectal cancers), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, emphysema, stroke, diabetes mellitus, immune function deficits, rheumatoid arthritis, and many other diseases. 2 This high health burden of nicotine dependence is related to several factors. ![]() 1 Globally, tobacco use accounts for 12% of all deaths. As many as one in five deaths in the United States are due to smoking-related morbidity, and the financial burden of smoking related to illness and lost productivity exceeds $289 billion each year. ![]() The gunplay is also reminiscent of older shooters, though not always in good ways. There's also no melee beyond your designated melee weapons, so arming yourself with a gun doesn't mean you can smack someone when he or she is within reach. Health doesn't regenerate, so food and health packs are valuable resources, and there's a way to give yourself a temporary overcharge of health if you're willing to pay the penalty later. Ammo may be limited, but you never have to worry about reload times, so firing off an uninterrupted stream of bullets is completely feasible, especially since you don't have to worry about weapon recoil. You can carry a near-limitless amount of weaponry, and a wide range of firearms, melee weapons, and throwable objects are at your disposal. ![]() Despite all the time that has passed, you know that you need to return to Paradise and rescue your best friend.įrom a mechanical standpoint, Paradise Lost possesses some traits of older first-person shooters. You're stuck in a coma for 11 years until a Good Samaritan wakes you up. Before you can get your mutt, the bullet lodged in your brain causes you to lose control of your car and crash into a nearby boulder. As you drive along the highway, your dog spies a cat and jumps out of the moving car to chase it. As the Postal Dude, you and your dog Champ are leaving the town of Paradise, Arizona, just as a mushroom cloud rises (from the nuclear explosion that you had detonated). The game immediately starts after the events of the last expansion, Apocalypse Weekend. Instead of proceeding with a new stand-alone game, the developer went with Postal 2: Paradise Lost, a full expansion pack for a 12-year-old title. With this knowledge at hand, Running With Scissors decided to retcon it so the third game never happened. For the fans, however, the third game was a major step backward in all respects, and it was a more than disappointing debut for the developer's foray into Steam. The critics always thought it was a bad title, so the revelation that the third iteration was worse came as no surprise. ![]() avoiding hot environments and not overheating during exercise.finding and avoiding triggers, where possible.doing exercises that involve gentle stretching.using over-the-counter pain relievers or topical creams.using skin-calming lotions, creams, and washes that contain calamine or aloe.getting enough sleep and avoiding stress, as far as possible.wearing pressurized socks, stockings, pants, or gloves when possible.applying warm or cool compresses to the affected area.Some natural treatment options might help relieve chronic pain, including nerve pain such as dysesthesia.

It may be a symptom of many different conditions affecting the mouth or body. Some doctors call it burning mouth syndrome.ĭoctors do not know exactly why this sensation develops. Oral dysesthesia involves an unexplained sensation of pain or burning in the mouth or the oral structures, which include the jaw, tongue, and gums. Occlusal dysesthesia is an uncommon side effect or complication of dental procedures. Someone with this type of dysesthesia will feel as though their bite is uncomfortable without any apparent reason. In some cases, loose-fitting clothes or a passing breeze may trigger sensations of pain, burning, or irritation. Most people with this type of dysesthesia have sensitive skin that does not respond in the usual way to outside stimuli or touch. Sometimes, scalp dysesthesia can result from a condition that affects the bones of the spine in the neck. This sensation can lead to scratching, which cannot provide relief, and hair loss. Most people with this type of dysesthesia are likely to experience an intensely painful burning sensation under or on the skin of the scalp. Many cases of dysesthesia occur due to progressive conditions, so they often become worse over time.ĭifferent types of dysesthesia affect different parts of the body, but they all result in skin discomfort without damage to the skin. an aching feeling, similar to that of sore musclesĭepending on the underlying cause, the sensations may be either acute - happening suddenly and resolving after a while - or chronic, which means that they persist.pain or irritation, even from a light touch or no contact.an uncomfortable, hard to describe feeling similar to that of hitting the funny bone.feelings of tingling or “pins and needles”.an unexplained painful sensation that often radiates to other parts of the body.a restrictive feeling, especially around the trunk or torso, sometimes called an “ MS hug“.an itching, burning sensation that may resemble something crawling under or on the skin.Do you have foot pain?

Some portals slow certain things down, some turn you into a block, some make you really small, some turn dangerous projectiles into bubbles you can travel through, and all of them are used to progress through whatever area you get them in. ![]() Honestly, this is one of the best aspects of the game. Our portals must be used to interact with levers, movable blocks, high walls and platforms, and even monsters that Soli can use to advance through each level. Of course, this is only part of the game. The visual divide is always apparent, with colours contrasting and a hard, circular shape around Soli and the rest of the level to show the immediate area they have control over. It lets us peek between worlds, seeing platforms and objects – as well as monsters- that aren’t present in our “home” world. Portals can’t be used in every area, but when they can they all come with various effects. When Soli sets out on their quest to get crystals to unlock the path to Brom- the guardian of Vaiya, who can explain more about what’s to come- we begin our adventure. Yes, Unbound: Worlds Apart is a platformer, but the key mechanic of the game involves portals. I consider being able to see my character well the most important part of a platformer, and I never once struggled to see their bright colours against any area’s backdrop. ![]() Level design varies by area, and while some have a slightly muted or muddled colour palette- at least for me- Soli remains easy to see and thus advance through the levels. Enemy silhouettes all differ easily enough to quickly determine threat- and often times the design of the demons is enough to acknowledge their move sets before engaging them for the first time. There’s something enchanting about hand-painted or drawn visuals and backgrounds, and indie games often paint interesting characters, silhouettes, and contrasts that I seem drawn to. I looked the game up, saw the colourful character in the thumbnail, clicked through, and then watched the opening cinematic from there. Visuals are what initially drew me to Unbound: Worlds Apart. They’re the only one that can do this, and hopefully save everyone along the way. Apparently the creature that killed our hero’s parent was a Demon, and there’s a Demon Lord named Arawen that’s going to corrupt the entire Sea of Reality unless we can help defeat him. They offer insight into what once happened to their world- and apparently what’s about to happen to Soli’s. The animal companion that came through the portal at the beginning meets with Soli periodically as our hero adventures. Queue the gameplay, and the story progressing from there. Soli is their miracle, however, and they seem determined to stay alive despite all that they’ve witnessed. The village starts to burn, and Soli runs back to see Karra telling us to run and then being stomped on by some giant, spider-like creature. That crystal splits during a ceremony meant to help “spread the word of Rhy across the sea”- which is another word to talk about the collective space across multiple worlds. One of our parents is named Karra, and they tell Soli to go and play and that they’ll be right there one our hero gets back- which constitutes one of the most obvious warnings ever. For one reason or another, this stopped around the time Soli came to the village, or so we are told. The place that Soli is from has a large crystal that powers a magic gate, one that used to be used to travel to other worlds. It’s unclear precisely what caused this, but it seems our player character (Soli) is the one responsible for the portal opening somehow? Or, perhaps, it’s simply a side-effect of what happens next. Our little be-robed hero wants to play with the other children, then a portal opens, and then a strange creature appears. The game opens with a well-animated short-cutscene. ![]() ![]() It's 4K, has a similar, but much nicer remote, and costs only $20. 329 We've overhauled our guide to the best streaming sticks to account for the new devices and OS updates launched by Amazon, Roku, and Google since our initial comparison in January 2021. That said, Walmart actually sells what is, IMHO, a superior version for $30 less. Next, it ships with criminally little memory-to the point where you literally won't be able to update the device or even apps because you'll run out of space. Google quickly replaced it under warranty, but it isn't well made. My remote broke after only a few months of use. I do not recommend the Chromecast with GoogleTV that is made by Google. I still have my Roku hooked up, but I only use (which is extremely rare) when I want to access a fringe channel that isn't available on GoogleTV.Ī couple of other salient points. Regardless, both GoogleTV and FireTV have far better smart-home support IMHO. I haven't tried controlling it via my Google Assistant yet. Roku relies on an Alexa Skill (which has poor ratings). Both GoogleTV and FireTV give you direct access to their virtual assistants within the remote and through their various smart home devices. Which do you use and recommend for entertainment in your rig We use two 32 inch 1080p Hisense Smart TVs with Roku Sticks, we use to run Hisense or TCL all in one Roku TVs but found them to quickly age out/perform poorly. It (along with FireTV) also keeps track of the stuff you've been watching and allows you to jump right to those shows.Īnother salient issue is smart-home integration. I have very niche tastes and GoogleTV does a surprisingly good job of finding interesting (to me) content across a variety of streaming services. GoogleTV actually has an outstanding recommendation engine. I don't dislike it, but the only thing it does is show you channels. I then picked up a second (actually the now $20 ONN 4K version from Walmart) because I liked my first so well.īack to Roku-I find the interface dated. I purchased my first Chromecast w/GoogleTV when my Roku started acting up. FireTV and GoogleTV have similar looking UIs, but I find Google's far more clean and useful. It mostly comes down to which interface you prefer. PC to a TV is great, but you have to admit that is a niche audience for use. It allows users to mimic their cable box experience and provides ease of use and comfort with the familiarity. That said, I've also got a couple of FireSticks as well as a couple of Chromecast with GoogleTV dongles now. The sticks are the bridge for a vast majority of people to cut the cord. I've still got one and I purchased my mother a TV with Roku built-in. I used Roku from literally the very first box. Should you get a Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, Apple TV, or Google TV Weve tested them all, and these are our favorite movie and TV streaming devices for 4K or HD TVs. ![]() These specimens are housed in arboreta and herbaria around the world, keeping C yanea pohaku preserved in the archive, even though it was not preserved in the wild. These conventions include Carl Linnaeus’s binomial Latin naming system and the collection of multiple herbarium specimens of each newly “discovered” plant. The notion of “discovery” through collecting specimens and taking photographs highlights the credibility given to the recording practices of Western colonial explorers, which often ignores prior Indigenous experiences with those same plants, animals, or landmasses. While initial research doesn’t point to Indigenous use or knowledge of Cyanea pohaku, it’s impossible to verify that. Rock was probably not the first person to encounter it, but rather, he was the first to record his encounter in a “credible” or “scientific” way. As with many plants “discovered” by Western explorers, it had undoubtedly been spotted by locals. Lammers re-classified the plant to the Cyanea genus “on the basis of its habitat and floral features.”Īlthough Cyanea pohaku has no common name in Western taxonomies, it’s most likely that it did have a “common name” to Indigenous groups. ![]() In 1988, approximately eighty years after it went extinct, plant biologist Thomas G. He named it Clermontia haleakalensis after the mountain on which he encountered it. When he found the plant on October 11, 1910, he took photographs and collected specimens to this day, he is the only known person to have done so. Rock, an Austrian American botanist who developed the first herbarium for the US Department of Agriculture in Hawaiʻi. The first evidence of Cyanea pohaku, which has no “common name,” was recorded by Joseph F. Given the recent devastation on Maui, Cyanea pohaku’s history raises the question: how many other plants that haven’t been recorded within Western conventions of plant taxonomy and nomenclature have cultural and biological histories we may never know about? Cyanea pohaku aka clermontia haleakalensis via Wikimedia Commons And had one scientist chosen not to photograph it, we may never have known it existed in the first place. As of 2022, there were more than 400 endangered plant species in Hawaiʻi so many that the US Department of Land and Natural Resources refers to Hawaiʻi as the “ Endangered Species Capital of the World.” But how many plants become extinct before they are ever “discovered”?Īccording to Arnoldia editor Matthew Battles, who brought this plant to my attention, Cyanea pohaku, a branched tree native to Maui, is one plant that was identified and taxonomized right before it disappeared. The wildfires, which killed approximately 97 people, also caused extreme ecological destruction to an already fragile landscape. The August 2023 wildfires on the Hawaiian island of Maui were some of the deadliest in US history.

In 2002 current Fireside owner, Michael Udovich, was bartending in St. About 5 years later Bob felt it was time to retire and word on the street was that the Fireside was for sale. In 1997 Bob bought out the Miller brothers and ran the Fireside’s day to day operation by himself. ![]() ![]() It went from a burger and sloppy hot dago joint, to a full Americanized menu. The Fireside went through more changes during this time, including the major expansion of its kitchen. Warren’s illustrious career ran from 1976 – 1984 with both the Hartford Whalers & New York Rangers. Bob and Ron ran the day to day operations because Warren was playing professional hockey in the NHL. The new owners were Bob Johnson and brother’s Warren & Ron Miller. In the fall of 1978, a trio of buyers stepped up and bought the Fireside Lounge. Paul and put the Fireside Lounge up for sale. Dick wasn’t happy and wanted out! He found a bar for sale in downtown St. Little did Dick know but Wally was angry, very angry that Dick had, without permission, cut down an apple tree on the Fireside property! It was Wally’s property and Wally’s apple tree! It turned out, because of this indiscretion on Dick’s part, Wally refused to sell the property and building to Dick. If only Dick had patented this wonderful, gimmicky invention! The Red Garter Girls also joined in on the fun and sang and danced the nights away! The old-timers swear there were never any rules broken and everyone was always out of the basement at closing time! Uh Huh! The next 6 years were a lot of fun with the Red Garter Girls, Dick wailing on the piano and this exciting new invention, which later became known as “Karaoke”!Ĭhange was brewing once again in the horizon! It was 1978 and rumor had it that Dick Henniger, who owned the business, wanted to buy the building and property from the original owner, Wally Nelson. An oldie but a goodie! The conception of “Karaoke” took form long before the name was used. The first change was taking out the barber shop and putting in a kitchen! The west side of the building, which was a game-room, was transformed into the new dining area! New tables were brought in and placed similarly to where they sit today, all enjoying a wonderful view of the warm and inviting fireplace! On weekends the downstairs became a piano bar where patrons would sing along as Dick played the piano! Rumor has it one of the favorite sing-a-long songs was, “Cab Driver once more Around the Block”. In 1972 Wally Nelson grew tired of the bar scene and sold the business to Dick Henniger! Dick made some major changes to the Fireside Lounge shortly after taking over. ![]() Oh, by the way please hold off on making any hotel reservations anytime soon : ) The inaugural Fireside owner was Wally Nelson. Yes! You read this correctly, a barber shop! The Fireside was the only bar in town where you could get a beer, bump & trim all at the same time! Let’s hope the barbershop staff wasn’t allowed to consume alcohol while they were on the clock! Though it would explain some of my old-timers hair styles : ) The structure was designed for a second story so maybe someday the construction project will be completed and a hotel will be constructed above the bar & restaurant for your late-night convenience. Apparently somewhere along the line, plans were changed and what was suppose to be a family dwelling turned into a saloon and a barber shop. The addition of locally brewed beer, named to celebrated the commumity, pairs perfectly with the flavor combinations that Firehouse Grill has to offer.The history of the Fireside Lounge began back in 1962 when it was initially being built to be a two-story family home. Most recently, we redesigned an underutilized area of the restaurant into a 7 barrel brewery. This addition allows for guests to enjoy the restaurant and its nearby events, such as the Independence Day annual fireworks in Summit Park. Over several years, we've provided designs that have improved upon this experience, including updating the building entry with new illuminated signage, and expanding outdoor dining with lighted pergolas for evening entertainment. They do this first by offering popular dishes, while their chef creates new flavor combinations that they hope people will enjoy even more.Īll of this good food is framed by the building in the form of textures, color and overall experience of the place.
