Cancer of the salivary gland is a malignant tumor of the tissues that produces saliva. Saliva is the fluid that is released into the mouth to keep it moist and contains enzymes that begin breaking down food. Saliva also helps prevent infections of the mouth and throat. There are clusters of salivary glands below the tongue, on the sides of the face (in the cheek area) just in front of the ears, in the area of the upper jaw along the inside of the teeth and the soft palate, as well as under the jawbone. Smaller clusters of salivary glands are present in parts of the upper digestive tract mucosa (tissue lining) and the windpipe.
Cancer begins when cells in the body become abnormal and multiply without control or order. These cells form a growth of tissue, called a tumor. A tumor can be benign or malignant. A benign tumor is not cancerous and usually can be removed without growing back. A malignant tumor is cancerous and can invade and damage the body's healthy tissue and organs.
Most cancerous tumors begin in the largest of the salivary glands, the parotid gland, found on either side of the face in front of the ears; and the submandibular glands, found under the jawbone. Salivary gland cancer can also begin in the sublingual glands or the minor salivary glands.
Most tumors (80%) in the parotid gland and about half of the tumors in the submandibular gland are benign (noncancerous). Sublingual gland tumors are almost always malignant (cancerous).
A risk factor is anything that increases a person's chance of developing a disease, including cancer. There are risk factors that can be controlled, such as smoking, and risk factors that cannot be controlled, such as age and family history. Although risk factors can influence disease, for many risk factors it is not known whether they actually cause the disease directly. Some people with several risk factors never develop the disease, while others with no known risk factors do. However, knowing your risk factors and communicating them to your doctor may help you make more informed lifestyle and health-care choices.
Radiation exposure. Radiation to the head/neck for other medical reasons may increase the risk of salivary gland cancer.
Radioactive substance exposure. In some reports, exposure to certain radioactive substances may increase the risk of salivary gland cancer; in other reports, there is insufficient evidence to support this. Consult your doctor for more information.
Environmental exposure. Exposure to sawdust and chemicals used in the leather industry, pesticides, and industrial solvents may increase the risk of a type of salivary gland cancer that occurs in the nose and sinuses.
Other possible risk factors that doctors are investigating include occupational exposure to certain metals (nickel alloy dust) or minerals (silica dust), a diet low in vegetables and high in animal fats, and exposure to hair dye or hairspray (this association has not yet been proven).
There is no known way to prevent salivary gland cancer.
People with salivary gland cancer may experience the following symptoms. Sometimes, people with salivary gland cancer do not show any of these symptoms. Or, these symptoms may be caused by a medical condition that is not cancer. If you are concerned about a symptom on this list, please talk with your doctor.
People who notice any of these warning signs should consult a doctor and/or dentist right away. When detected early, cancers of the head and neck have a much better chance of cure.
Because many of these symptoms can be caused by other, noncancerous health conditions as well, it is always important to receive regular health and dental screenings; this is particularly important for those people who routinely drink alcohol or currently use tobacco products or have used them in the past.
In fact, people who use alcohol and tobacco should receive a general screening examination at least once a year. This is a simple, quick procedure in which the doctor looks in the nose, mouth, and throat for abnormalities and feels for lumps in the neck. If anything unusual is found, the doctor will recommend a more extensive examination using one or more of the diagnostic procedures mentioned under Diagnosis.
A medical history and physical examination have to be done carefully, identifying potential risk factors. If a facial nerve paralysis is present, specific function tests will be required, and an inspection of the oral cavity, hypopharynx, and larynx will also be done. There are no specific blood or urine tests that can detect a salivary gland tumor, and there are no tumor markers (substances found in higher than normal amounts in the blood, urine, or body tissues of people with certain kinds of cancer) for salivary gland cancer known at this time.
Fine needle aspiration. Cells are withdrawn using a thin needle inserted directly into the tumor. The cells are examined under a microscope for signs of cancer, and should be examined by a cytologist with expertise in salivary gland cancer.
Endoscopy. A thin, flexible tube with an attached light and view lens is inserted through the mouth or nose to examine the head and neck areas. The examination has different names depending on the area of the body that is examined, such as laryngoscopy (larynx), pharyngoscopy (pharynx), or a nasopharyngoscopy (nasopharynx). It is performed using an anesthetic spray or general anesthesia to make the person more comfortable.
Computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan. A CT scan creates a three-dimensional picture of the inside of the body with an x-ray machine. A computer then combines these images into a detailed, cross-sectional view that shows any abnormalities or tumors.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An MRI uses magnetic fields, not x-rays, to produce detailed images of the body, especially images of soft tissue, such as the tonsils and base of the tongue.
Ultrasound. In this test, a video image of the inside of the body is produced using sound waves. Ultrasound is used to check lymph nodes in the neck and to assist in fine needle aspiration biopsy.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scan. In a PET scan, radioactive sugar molecules are injected into the body. Cancer cells absorb sugar more quickly than normal cells, so they light up on the PET scan. PET scans are often used to complement information gathered from CT scan, MRI, and physical examination. PET scanning is especially useful to detect possible cancer in other organs (metastasis, or spreading) or hidden primary tumors.
Additionally, a dentist, in his or her evaluation of the person with salivary gland cancer, may order specific imaging studies for the teeth, including a panorex (a rotating, or panoramic, x-ray) of the mandible (jawbones).
The treatment of salivary gland cancer depends on the size and location of the tumor, whether the cancer has spread, and the person's overall health. In many cases, a team of doctors will work with the patient to determine the best treatment plan.
Cancer of the salivary gland can be cured, especially if found early.
Although curing the cancer is the primary goal of treatment, preserving the function of the nearby nerves, organs, and tissues is also very important. When doctors plan treatment, they consider how treatment might affect a person's quality of life, how a person feels, looks, talks, eats, and breathes.
Head and neck cancer specialists often form a multidisciplinary team to care for each person, and an evaluation should be done before any treatment begins. The team may include medical and radiation oncologists; surgeons; otolaryngologists (ear, nose, and throat doctors); maxillofacial prosthodontists; dentists; physical therapists; speech pathologists; psychiatrists; nurses; dietitians; and social workers.
During surgery, doctors perform an operation to remove the cancerous tumor and some of the healthy tissue around it (called a margin). The goal of surgery is to remove as much of the tumor as possible and leave negative margins (no trace of cancer in the healthy tissue). Surgery is performed in nearly all cases of salivary gland cancer.
Depending on the location, stage, and the subtype of the cancer, some people may need more than one operation to remove the cancer and to help restore the appearance and function of the tissues affected. Reconstructive and plastic surgery may be used to replace normal tissues and nerves that have to be removed to eliminate the cancer. Sometimes, surgery is followed by radiation treatment.
Sometimes, it is not possible to completely remove the cancer during surgery. Surgery is often risky because the cancer may be close to the eyes, mouth, brain, and important nerves and blood vessels in the area. The type of surgery depends on the extent of the tumor.
Parotidectomy. The removal of the parotid gland is called a parotidectomy. This surgery is done with dissection of the facial nerve. If cancer has spread to the facial nerve, frequently a nerve graft is necessary for the rehabilitation of the facial muscles. Facial disfigurement that may have been present prior to surgery may need to be addressed using reconstructive plastic surgery. Any tissue that is removed can often be restored by microvascular surgery and free tissue transplantation.
Endoscopic surgery. Occasionally, it is possible to remove the tumor by endoscopic surgery, which is less destructive to normal tissues than conventional surgery. This is used particularly when a salivary gland tumor begins in the paranasal area or in the larynx. For cancer itself, endoscopic surgery is rarely used, and may only be recommended for some people. More often, this procedure may find cancer during a seemingly routine endoscopic surgery for what is believed to be chronic sinusitis.
Surgery often causes swelling of the face, mouth, and throat making it difficult to breathe and swallow. Frequently, a person may receive a temporary tracheostomy (hole in the windpipe) to make breathing easier.
Facial nerves may also be affected, either temporarily or permanently. Facial disfigurement may need to be addressed using reconstructive plastic surgery. If the maxilla (upper jaw) is removed, prosthodontists play a large role in the rehabilitation process.
A neck dissection (lymph nodes in the neck are removed) may be performed if the doctor suspects that the cancer has spread. A neck dissection may cause numbness of the ear, weakness when raising the arm above the head, and weakness of the lower lip. The side effects are caused by injury to nerves in the area. Depending on the type of neck dissection, weakness of the lower lip and arm may go away in a few months. Weakness will be permanent if a nerve is removed as part of a dissection.
A new method of external radiation therapy, known as intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), allows for more effective doses of radiation therapy to be delivered while reducing the damage to healthy cells and causing fewer side effects. Internal radiation therapy, also called interstitial radiation or brachytherapy, involves tiny pellets or rods containing radioactive materials that are surgically implanted in or near the cancer site. The implant is left in place for several days while the person stays in the hospital.
Radiation treatment can be the main treatment for certain tumors or if a person cannot have surgery or decides not to have surgery. It is most often used in combination with surgery, given either before or after the operation. It may also be given along with chemotherapy.
Before beginning radiation treatment for salivary gland cancer, a person should receive a thorough examination from an oncologic dentist (a dentist with experience in treating people with head and neck cancer). Since radiation therapy can cause tooth decay, damaged teeth may need to be removed. Often, tooth decay can be prevented with proper treatment from a dentist before beginning treatment.
Radiation therapy may also cause a condition called hypothyroidism, in which the thyroid gland (located in the neck) slows down and causes the person to feel tired and sluggish. People who receive radiation therapy to the neck area should have their thyroid checked regularly.
Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells, and is seldom used in the initial treatment of salivary gland cancer. Combined treatments of chemotherapy with radiation therapy are used as part of clinical trials because they remain under investigation. Chemotherapy may be used in the case of cancer spread to other organs.
Chemotherapy is most often used in advanced cancer or to treat symptoms. Some chemotherapy drugs are available in clinical trials that may treat cancer at an earlier stage, or hope to cure the cancer.
Cancer and cancer treatment can cause a variety of side effects; some are easily controlled and others require specialized care. Below are some of the side effects that are more common to salivary gland cancer and its treatments.
Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia). Dysphagia occurs when a patient has trouble getting food or liquid to pass down the throat. Some patients may gag, cough, or choke when trying to swallow, while others experience pain or feel like food is stuck in the throat. Difficulty swallowing is a relatively common side effect of some cancer treatments. Potential side effects of cancer treatment that can cause swallowing difficulties include soreness, pain, or inflammation in the throat, esophagus, or mouth (mucositis); dry mouth from radiation treatment or chemotherapy; infections of the mouth or esophagus from radiation treatment or chemotherapy; swelling or constriction of the throat or esophagus from radiation treatment or surgery; and physical changes to the mouth, jaw, throat, or esophagus as a result of surgery.
Nervous system disturbances. Nervous system disturbances can be caused by many different factors, including cancer, cancer treatments, medications, or other disorders. Symptoms that result from a disruption or damage to the nerves caused by cancer treatment (such as surgery, radiation treatment, or chemotherapy) can appear soon after treatment or many years later.
After treatment for salivary cancer ends, people should receive regular follow-up medical and dental examinations to check for signs of recurring cancer (cancer that comes back), a secondary cancer (a different type of cancer), and to manage any late or long-term side effects from cancer treatment.
Most recurrences happen in the first two or three years after diagnosis, so follow-up visits will be more frequent in the first two years. Diagnostic examinations may be repeated to detect recurrences or document the progress of current treatment. If cancer recurs, testing and treatment must begin again.
Rehabilitation of lost functions in the head and neck is often necessary following treatment. Special care of the eye is necessary in the case of 7th (facial) nerve function loss. Rehabilitation of swallowing is often needed, and special procedures (moving a paralyzed vocal cord to improve voice, for example) may be necessary after removal of a large skull base tumor. Exposure to direct sunlight is to be avoided if radiation therapy has been used as part of the treatment, and people with a history of salivary gland cancer need to be continually monitored for the possibility of relapse or distant metastasis.
Fatigue and other symptoms that are due to treatment can be helped by special rehabilitative efforts.
Rehabilitation is a major part of follow-up care after head and neck cancer treatment. People may receive physical therapy and speech therapy to regain skills, such as speech and swallowing. Supportive care to manage symptoms and maintain nutrition during and after treatment may be recommended. Some people may need to learn new ways to eat or to eat foods prepared differently.
People may look different, feel tired, and be unable to talk or eat the way they used to. Many people experience depression. The health-care team can help people cope and connect them with support services.
Even after being diagnosed with cancer, quitting smoking is still helpful. Continuing to smoke during cancer treatment may decrease the effectiveness of treatment, cause second cancers to develop, and worsen treatment side effects, such as diminished voice control. Even people who have recently quit are more likely to recover better than individuals who continue to smoke.

Italy is located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, most of it on a long boot-shaped peninsula. In its northern areas, Italy borders France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia. The island of Sicily lies off its southwest coast.
Since ancient times, Magna Graecia, Etruscan, Celtic and other cultures have flourished in the territory of present-day Italy, being eventually absorbed by Rome, that became the leading political and religious center of Western civilization, capital of the Roman Empire and Christianity.
As a result, it is home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites of any country, and landmark buildings and art can be found virtually everywhere. It is also famous for its cuisine, which varies from region to region. Not surprisingly, it is among the world’s most popular travel destinations.
Italy has a population of 61 million. Rome is its capital, but the country has many other major cities of economic and travel importance – Milan, Turin, Venice, Florence, etc. Its southern areas (the lower areas of the boot) have fewer cities and are much less visited then Italy’s center and north.
Geographically, the country is dominated by two mountain systems. The Apennine Mountains form the peninsula’s backbone, while the Alps form most of its northern boundary and include Western Europe’s highest point, Mont Blanc (4,810 m/15,782 ft) on its border with France.
Italy is also known for its large and scenic lakes, primarily in the northern part of the country and fed by the Alps. The five largest are, in descending order: Garda (367.94 km2 or 142 sq mi), Maggiore (212.51 km2 or 82 sq mi, shared with Switzerland), Como (145.9 km2 or 56 sq mi), Trasimeno (124.29 km2 or 48 sq mi) and Bolsena (113.55 km2 or 44 sq mi).
The Amalfi Coast is located southeast of Naples. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in recognition of the stunning beauty of its coastline, which includes iconic medieval cliff-side Mediterranean fishing villages and azure sea. Visitors can visit the area by land, including extensive hiking and biking trails, or by sea, with extensive boat touring options.
The Aosta Valley is located in northwestern Italy, separated from the French border by Mont Blanc. The upper valley has a cable car system that connects with the much larger system on the French side. The valley also includes outstanding historical, cultural and artistic heritage, as well as diverse hiking and climbing opportunities in the summer and alpine sports in the winter.
Bologna is a mid-sized city located in north-central Italy. It is well-known for its beautiful, well-preserved town center, marked by miles of covered walkways. Bologna is home to the oldest university in the Western world, and is also famous for its cuisine.
The Dolomites are an especially beautiful part of the Alps, located in northeastern Italy. The central travel hub of the Dolomites is the scenic town of Cortina d’Ampezzo, reachable by vehicle or by scenic railway. Cortina d’Ampezzo is a year-round alpine resort with ski lift network for winter sports and extensive trails for hiking and biking.
Florence is a mid-sized city and the capital of Tuscany, Italy. The city was the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Politically, economically, and culturally Florence was the most important city in Europe for over 250 years; from the late 1200s until the early 1500s. Today it is recognized as one of the world’s great cultural, artistic and architectural legacies.
Lecce is a historic city located on the Salento Peninsula in southeastern Italy. The city’s architecture is distinguished by its elaborate style of baroque buildings, giving it the nickname “Florence of the South.” It is home to Roman archeological ruins, while its surrounding areas provide interesting villages and extensive beaches.
Milan, located in northwestern Italy, is the country’s second largest city and its financial and industrial center. The city has the most global feeling of Italy’s cities. While much of Milan feels modern, it has a historic district well worth visiting: Cinque Vie. Among Milan’s most significant features is Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Mount Etna, located in northeastern Sicily, is one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Upper areas are dominated by an eerie volcanic landscape, with solidifed "rivers" of lava. Lower down, the fertile volcanic soils support extensive agriculture, with vineyards and orchards. Mount Etna is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and can be access via cable cars and special vehicles, as well as hiking.
Naples, capital of the Campania region south of Rome, is one of Italy’s largest cities. Its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holding the largest number of designated landmarks in the world, ranging from town squares to churches. The major attraction of nearby Pompeii is seeing an ancient city that has been preserved in detail -- everything from jars and tables, to paintings and people were frozen in time.
Situated on the river Tiber, between the Apennine mountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea, the "Eternal City" was once the administrative center of the mighty Roman Empire, ruling over a vast territory that stretched all the way from Britain to Mesopotamia.
Siena is a mid-sized city located in Tuscany, south of Florence. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its historic center, which is little changed from when Siena was a wealthy and independent medieval city-state. Today’s Siena is famous for its cuisine, art, museums, and overall medieval cityscape. It is also known its unique horse race, Il Palio, conducted twice each year in the summer.
Turin is a large city located in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. It is known for its beautiful setting, with the Po River running through the city, gentle hills overlooking the city, and the Italian Alps off in the distance. It is also known as the home of Italy's historic royal family, as represented in its UNESCO World Heritage Site, Residences of the Royal House of Savoy.
Tuscany is a region located in west-central Italy. Among its many appealing features are its many historic hill towns, beautiful architecturally and surrounded by vineyards producing Chianti and other wines. A good place to start is the city of Pienza. Its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, while its larger surrounding area is a second UNESCO World Heritage Site, Val d’Orcia, cited for its beautiful landscapes.
Urbino is a walled city located in north-central Italy. Its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known its important legacy in the development of Renaissance culture. The town, nestled on a high sloping hillside, retains much of its picturesque medieval appearance, including one of the largest palaces in Italy (Palazzo Ducale).
Venice, located in northeastern Italy, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the distinctive and scenic destinations in the world. Venice is situated on a lagoon comprising 118 islands, with a network of canals and bridges connecting them. Various areas can be visited by foot, public water taxi, or romantic (but expensive) gondola.
Verona is a mid-sized city located in northeastern Italy's Veneto region. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for both its archeological ruins from the Roman period and its historic center, with its rich offering of Medieval and Renaissance churches and art museums. It is also known as the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and what is reputed to be Juliet's House.

At the heart of Kristin's values is a belief that the best education does more than simply instil knowledge in the minds of students. By nurturing the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual and social well-being of our students at Kristin we enable them to grow and develop to their potential, while offering support in a safe and positive environment.
Because the needs of our students differ between the age groups, each school is structured in a way to best support the needs of its students. In the Senior School this structure is evident in the Senior Leadership team where the Deputy and Assistant Principals oversee NCEA, IB and Tertiary Futures. Monitoring, advice and guidance for seniors is co-ordinated by the four House Deans.
Senior students are encouraged to develop the skills necessary to become independent learners. However, they still require pastoral support throughout their senior studies and our four House Deans offer this. These skilled and experienced teachers oversee the well-being of students in their House and are the first point of contact for students and parents should concerns arise about any aspect of senior schooling. As students progress through the Senior School they remain with their House Dean, providing stability, familiarity and consistency throughout their three years in the school.
While in Year 10 all students will meet with their Senior School Dean in preparation for entering into Year 11. This handover helps students with the transition to the Senior School and their subject choices.
Kristin offers a purpose-built Wellness Centre that encompasses health, counselling, chaplaincy and attendance. The Well-Being team works in collaboration with students, staff and parents to enhance well-being at Kristin. We aim to create and maintain an environment where individuals can flourish and achieve their full potential.
An important branch of Information Services at Krisitn, our skilled and helpful ICT team is available to support students with queries relating to our Digital Learning Programme and BYO devices. ICT Services is located on the first floor of the Library Information Centre (LIC). Whilst on campus, students can visit during the school day. During Term Breaks, visits are welcome however appointments are necessary.
Four Houses encompass all students and teachers at Kristin and form a significant part of the Kristin culture. The House spirit is most evident at school events such as Athletics, Swimming Sports and House Music.
From the point of enrolment, students remain in the same house throughout their time at the school. Where possible students are enrolled in the same House as their siblings/parents when a family history exists.

The Texas Transportation Commission approved distribution of $3 billion in Proposition 12 bond funding that will address congested highways, rehabilitate bridges and improve connectivity between the state’s metropolitan areas.
The commission’s action will distribute $1.4 billion to TxDOT’s 25 districts and $600 million to the 25 Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) around the state according to existing formulas. It will also provide $200 million for statewide highway connectivity improvements, $500 million for bridges and $300 million for relief in the four most congested regions of the state: Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio.
These funds represent the balance of $5 billion in general obligation bonding authority approved by voters and first authorized by the Texas Legislature in 2007. Construction contracts for the first $2 billion in projects were approved in 2010.
TxDOT worked in partnership with MPOs, cities, counties and corridor associations to identify and prioritize needs. TxDOT held meetings with stakeholders and conducted public hearings, including the department’s first statewide hearing via video teleconference. Much of this intensive public involvement effort was conducted and completed in just four months.

Do you know any of these creepy insects?
This is some horrific insect behaviour! From flesh eating ants to bot flies that burrow into your skin, we take a look at 10 insects with horrific behaviour that will make your skin crawl.
There are many different species of termites, and many of them love to infest within your home. If you are victim of an invasion from termites, you may want to check out something like Termite Control Kansas City to eradicate the whole colony with minimal environmental impact. Disgustingly, tropical termites have evolved to explode when threatened. When the termite ages, they started to develop blue bands around their bodies. These bands are filled with chemicals secreted by the termite that are copper-rich and extremely toxic when exposed. These aging workers are used as a weapon against enemy termites and, when they explode, the blue chemicals inside them immobilise the enemy termites, so that the other younger, healthier termites can kill the paralysed invaders. Termites will never be a nice thing it seems, as mentioned there are loads of different types of termites you can get. You probably won’t get these exploding ones in your home, however, you might have the unfortunate luck to get another kind of termite in your house. If this is the case then don’t worry, you can easily call up someone like termite control los angeles to help you sort out your problem.
These things are a nasty breed of fly that have parasitic larvae that burrow into skin to gestate.
Bot flies look a bit like bumblebees, but they are way more disgusting. A mother bot fly will literally inject her eggs into a mosquito that’s flying past – mid-flight! Once the eggs are in the mosquito, they will get into the bloodstream of whatever animal the mosquito feeds on next and hatch. And yes, there are species of botfly larvae that will survive if injected into a human.
The newly-hatched larvae will either burrow under the skin or grow in the guts of the host until they are fully formed. They’re also covered in spikes, so that when they’re fully formed and ready to go out into the world, it’s not a problem for them to rip through skin.
A known remedy for a bot fly larvae infestation is to cover the entrance to the wound with nail polish so as to suffocate the larvae. Then as they try to escape the wound, you can then pull them out with tweezers. I think I just vomited a little in my mouth.
Allomerus decemarticulatus is a species of ant that lives in the Amazon. The ants work together as a team to build a trap for other jungle inhabitants using twigs and leaves, and then one ant will stay behind and wait for another insect to stumble into the trapdoor. Once the insect does, the ant lying in wait will jump out and latch onto one of the insect’s legs. Once its grip is secure, it releases a pheromone signalling to the other ants that an insect has been captured. When the other ants arrive, they begin to rip the insect limb from limb and take their newly caught food back to the nest.
Army ants detect their prey by movement. When they find a creature that looks suitable to eat, they start to swarm. Army ants range from 3 to 12 mm in size which isn’t really that big, but when they start to come out in swarms of hundreds they can strip an animal down to its bones. They have paralysing agents in their mandibles, so after enough of the ants bite the prey, it stops being able to move. Then they move in and leave nothing but the bones.
If an army ant hill is disturbed up to 100,000 ants or more can spew forth, covering any incapacitated human or animal. Studies have shown that a swarm of army ants can strip a frog, flesh from bone in a matter of hours. This is where myth and reality start to blur. Stories tell of babies or injured adults left near army ant nests dying not of bites but of asphyxiation. The ants swarm the body so badly that they enter any orifice they can find, crawling down the throats of victims entering the lungs where they begin shredding the soft connective tissue, choking them to death.
The Mormon cricket is a type of cricket that lives in the southwest US. These crickets travel in swarms and can destroy entire crops. While that can be devastating to the farmers, the way the crickets interact with each other is disturbing. Because these swarms are so large, often the crickets at the front will get to eat the delicious crops, but by the time the crickets in the back get there all the food has been eaten and there’s nothing left. So the crickets in the back turn to the closest other source of food: each other. The swarms have to keep moving to keep eating, but also to outrun the possibility of being cannibalised.

Koraput/Kakiriguma: Maoists threatened founder of Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) and Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) Achyuta Samanta to punish him in the Praja Court (People’s court) for allegedly working against Maoist organisation in name of providing education to tribals in Odisha.
In a poster reportedly put up by the CPI Maoists on the wall of Koraput branch of KISS premises yesterday, the red rebels alleged Samanta of working along with police towards weakening the Maoist organisation in name of providing education to tribal children in KISS.
“While we are opposing the government’s policies, you are inviting the ministers. If you do not stop doing this, you will be punished in the Praja court,” the banner read.
The banner was found by the locals on the wall of KISS campus at Kakiriguma in Koraput yesterday morning. They informed the Kakiriguma police, which later seized the poster.
The investigation has been initiated to find out whether the banner was posted by the Maoists or it was done by some locals in name of Maoists.

One of Italy’s most popular grappas, Nardini Grappa Bianca is simultaneously sharp and sweet with its high proof evident from the first sip. Elegant notes of gingerbread and aromatic jasmine tea meld together offering a smooth and mellow palate, with layers of sugary lemon building. Acacia honey notes complement the smoothness even further and add to the warming characteristics of this flavourful grappa. A complex flavour profile which is harmoniously balanced and a real Italian favourite.
Quintessentially Italian, the sweet flavour of mandorla, or almonds, have become more and more popular around the world. Nardini Mandorla Grappa uses a cherry distillate which balances out the bitter notes in the almondand delivers a unique and enticing flavour which is sweet and mellow, often enjoyed by first-time grappa drinks. The nutty notes make it the perfect partner for an espresso coffee and a wonderful addition to your favourite sours cocktail.

Swaziland, which is often referred to as the Kingdom of Eswatini is a south African landlocked nation. Present boundaries of the country came to be in 1881, under the Scramble for Africa. After the Second Boer War, the country was a British protectorate, until it obtained independence on 6 September 1968. On April 19, 2018 Swaziland officially changed its name to Kingdom of Eswatini. The government is headed by a absolute diarchy, with the King and Queen Mother maintaining rule. The King is the head of state, in charge of appointing cabinet members and the prime minister. Elections take place every five years to determine the senate and house of assembly members.
Swaziland is a small, developing African country. Estwani is a member of the Southern African Customs Union and COMESA ( Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa). The US and European Union are main trading partners with the country overseas, and it’s main local trading partner is South Africa. Agriculture and manufacturing sectors are the two leading areas of employment in the country. The country’s also a member of the United Nations, Commonwealth of Nations, SADC, and African Union.
The Swazi bicameral Parliament has 30 seats and the House of Assembly has 65. Elections are held every five years, on a non-party basis. The country adopted the Westminster-style constitution.
The judiciary system in Swaziland is based on a dual-system. The 2006 Constitution established a court system which follows a western model. The country has four regional magistrate courts, a high court, and Supreme Court (Court of appeals). Traditional Swazi Courts or National Courts hear cases dealing with minor offenses. Judges are typically expatriates from South Africa, who are appointed by the king.
Visitors to the National Law Review can find the latest coverage related to Swaziland, and its relations with South Africa. International news and immigration, international arbitration enforcement, and international relations news are covered.

Pose game is strong, right? Okay, so the shirt, I was quite impressed with the delivery considering it comes from Asia, it took about 2 weeks which is fairly reasonable compared to other similar sites and believe it or not the quality is decent too. Probably around the primark benchmark, which seems to last me well. The only niggles I have are the cuffs, unfortunately there are no button holes so you can't fasten your sleeves, but I'll get round to adding those myself. The colour is also slightly more reddish-brown than Burberry's burgundy, but it's on just the right side of red so I'm not breaking my anti-brown rule. I'll definitely be looking to dresslily for further trend led pieces after the AW14 shows that's for sure. Quick note for reference; I'm a UK 10 and ordered a size large, unless you're absolutely teeny tiny I suggest you do the same!
Love your shirt so cute and valentinesy!
I love the heart print shirt trend, ever since burberry did it. this one was such a bargain!

1. The first thing you have to do is to use your imagination and then start creating mini cheese balls. If you are adventurous make them spicy or herbed or garlicy.
2. To make it more surprising fill cheese balls with various fillings - olives, grapes, cherry tomatoes, chilli peppers, or any pickles. Use your imagination so your guests would be surprised by each bite!
3. Coat cheese balls with your favourite balls to get different flavours and colours. Let them sit and cool before serving! And they can be perfectly made one day ahead! Enjoy!
A very my style appetizer! Im so grateful for this idea? Are these balls popular with Turks?
No, turkish prefer simple food and I think they would find it weird if I served cheese like that.

New clients across a number of industries including Pandora, McKesson Corp., Prologis Inc., and Fuze; further demonstrating behavioral economics motivates impactful cost-management.
Rocketrip, the leading platform for reducing corporate travel costs, today announced an increase in new client adoption with an impressive list of new customers including Pandora, McKesson Corp., Prologis Inc., and Fuze. Over the past year, the company has tripled in revenue as it accelerates its traction upmarket.
Rocketrip takes an unprecedented approach to fixing a slow-moving industry. Pioneering the Incentivized Behavioral Change movement in corporate travel, it is the only system to algorithmically predict what a trip should cost and to provide material incentives to employees for changing their spending behavior. The platform gives business travelers a personalized "Budget to Beat" for each trip based on a company’s travel policy, negotiated rates and real-time market inventory. Travelers who book under budget earn a share of the savings they generate to spend on things they truly value. Additionally, the Rocketrip Insights analytics dashboard enhances conventional expense reporting by aggregating data from all travel vendors, including airlines, hotels, car rental companies and even Airbnb.
“Rocketrip helps us to save on travel costs and accommodate our employees’ needs for flexibility and choice,” said Diana Scott, Chief Human Resources Officer at Prologis. “Their employee-centric solution fits seamlessly into our existing workflow and gives our teams the tools to make more informed, cost-conscious spending decisions."
Businesses can no longer ignore what employees and travelers want in order to save on the bottom line. By motivating extraordinary behavior through material incentives, Rocketrip unlocks greater cost savings than clients could realize through conventional travel procurement and expense management practices alone. On average this year, Rocketrip clients have saved $222 per trip (21%) against budgeted costs.
This year, Rocketrip also launched the first-ever collaborative technology ecosystem with some of the biggest players in the travel industry, like Concur and Carlson Wagonlit, to enhance booking and expense management workflows, while also developing apps and capabilities with technology companies such as Sabre and Travelport to automate and improve client-specific budget calibration.
Most recently, Rocketrip unveiled the next phase of its online booking tool integration to deliver its highly-customized budgets and rewards solutions to travelers at the point of purchase. The embedded solution creates a simpler booking process and gives travelers a deeper understanding of the value of beating a budget.
Rocketrip reduces business travel costs by aligning employee and employer interests. The platform produces custom trip budgets for employees and motivates them to spend less by letting them keep half of what they save. As the global leader in Incentivized Behavioral Change, Rocketrip inspires thoughtful spending by giving employees a stake in their company's bottom line. It’s a win-win approach trusted by clients including GE, Edmunds, and Twitter.
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in New York City, Rocketrip's investors include Bessemer Venture Partners, Canaan Partners, Genacast Ventures, and Y Combinator.

Really tasty soup. Delicious and warming on a cold autumn day.
Remove the seeds from the peppers and cut into quarters. Place them on a baking tray and and lightly brush with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and place them into the oven for 6-8mins at 180C, until the skins just start to look charred.
Place the water and stock cube in a saucepan. Add the chopped carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Bring to the boil and cook for 5 mins. Turn down the heat to a gentle simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the chopped vegetables become tender.
Remove the peppers from the oven and when cool enough to handle, put them into a sealed plastic bag and let them cool. Once they have cooled, remove from the bag and peel off the charred skin. Chop the flesh into small pieces and add to the saucepan along with the tinned tomatoes.
Simmer for a further 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and and add the fresh basil. Whizz everything together with a hand held blender, taste and check for seasoning.
Serve with a drizzle of olive oil or splash of cream.
Lots of people leaving comments about adjustments might prefer to try this other good food recipe. https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1977654/roast-red-pepper-and-tomato-soup It's similar but has less stock and more spice, uses fresh tomatoes, and roasts the onion and garlic with the pepper for better flavour.
Made this with adjustments as per other people - didn’t take the skins off the peppers, roasted them for longer (20 mins) and only used 500ml of stock. Added some paprika and chilli flakes. Left out the cream but stired through some plain yog on serving. Very nice.
Very tasty; my partner and I really enjoyed it. I added 1/2 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1/2 tablespoon dried basil and orange, yellow and red peppers as it was all I had in. Also added a dash of hot chilli powder to give it a lovely kick. I didn't peel the peppers and left out the cream.
I added in some cashew nuts to give the soup more of a texture, make it thicker and give it more of an interesting taste.
Left out the cream (if needed had creme fraiche could have added but didnt) used leeks had no celery,charred the peppers for roughly 20-25mins, added a pich of chilli flakes also added a table spoon of sugar to make it richer tasting when blitzed.Toasted ciabata with olive oil and topped with chopped basil....and what can I say ......simply the best!!!!
Really tasty and easy to make, I too did not peel the peppers, I didn't add quite as much stock, and I added some chill flakes. Very tasty.
Forgot to add - also used Rosemary instead of Basil !
Made this today - really great recipe. I made a few subs - Chicken stock and also I left the skins on the peppers. Absolutely lush. Top top - use Fage 0% Fat Greek Yoghurt instead of cream!

Christmas time is special time of the year. For many that also means you will eat your favorite food that your grandmother or your parents used to make, or even are making. For others who have to make their Christmas dinner for themselves we have brought in this article to show you some famous dishes from Slavic countries as Russia, Poland, Slovakia, Croatia, Serbia etc. If you hope to be inspired on what to prepare for this year, you are on the right place! Enjoy and marry Slavic Christmas to you and your families!
Kholodets or Aspic is a dish in which ingredients are also set into a cool gelatin made from a meat stock or consommé. Non-savory dishes, often made with commercial gelatin mixes without stock or consommé, are usually called gelatin salads.
Lentil soup refers to a variety of vegetarian and meat soups made with lentils as you would imagine. The soup may consist of green, brown, red, yellow or black lentils, with or without the husk. De-hulled very yellow and bright red lentils disintegrate in cooking, making a thick soup. Very popular dish in Russia, but to an extent among other Slavs also.
Long established Christian communities such have pork dishes as part of their main course of their Christmas dinner. Most popular choice among Balkan Slavs would be lamb on roast.
Roast turkey is the most common choice of meal during Christmas in most of the Slavic countries. However sometimes people make duck or goose and even combine it with pork/lamb. This is popular equally among all Slavic nations.
Pierogi also spelled perogi, pierogy, perogy, pierógi, pyrohy, pirogi, pyrogie, or pyrogy; are dumplings of unleavened dough – first boiled, then they are baked or fried usually in butter with onions – traditionally stuffed with potato filling, sauerkraut, ground meat, cheese, or fruit. Very tasty and popular in Poland, Ukraine, Belarus and Russia.
A well know traditional Christmas meal in Slavic countries is fried carp and potato salad which are eaten during Christmas dinner in the evening of 24 December.
Bread and salt is a welcome greeting ceremony in many European cultures but also a popular Christmas bread to make. The tradition is well known by its local Slavic names that was also adopted by two non-Slavic nations — Lithuanians (Baltic) and Romanians (Latin) — culturally and historically both close to their Slavic neighbours (Lithuanian: Duona ir druska and Romanian: Pâine și sare).
We wish you happy Christmas and New year!

Sunset In Central Park (From Manhattan With Love #2) by Sarah Morgan- A 5/5 Star Review!
New York, Actually (From Manhattan With Love #4) by Sarah Morgan- a 4/5 Star Review!
Holiday in the Hamptons (From Manhattan with Love #5) by Sarah Morgan- A 5/5 Star Review!
Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares (Dash & Lily #1) by Rachel Cohn & David Levithan: Another book that has to do with the holiday season but this one was selected as this month’s Book Club pick in the Young Adult Book Club that I am involved in locally. It revolves around two teenagers in New York City who could not be more different when it comes to the holidays. Dash hates it, Lily loves it. However, Lily and her brother create a Book of Dares and hide it on a bookshelf in the famous Strand Bookstore, and Dash stumbles across it, plays her game as instructed in the book, then comes up with a game of his own for her. I really like it so far because of it’s unique concept and it’s setting in NYC during the holidays.
Reading People: How Seeing the World Through the Lens of Personality Changes Everything by Anne Bogel: As stated in the beginning of this post, I am a big fan of Anne Bogel. Reading People is a deep look into personality and how different traits factor in to making a person who they are. She cites many reputable sources and breaks down complicated subjects into concepts that are easily relatable. I am only halfway through but have learned so much! Especially about Highly Sensitive People and it has helped me understand people in my own life better.
Ready Player One by Ernest Cline (Read by Wil Wheaton): I wanted to read this before the movie comes out next March. Wade Watts is a teenager in the year 2044 with an obsession for video games and virtual reality. His home life isn’t great, so he escapes to the OASIS where he can virtually go to school, hang out with friends, and play video games. The creator of OASIS was a multi-billionaire who will give his estate to whomever finds five clues hidden throughout the game. It has been years since and no one has found any clue. The attention has faded, until Wade finds the first clue. Now, the stakes are even higher as there is not only money on the line, but fame and even his life. Wil Wheaton is a brilliant choice for the audiobook verison as he makes it very engaging. So far it kind of seems like a Willy Wonka meets World of Warcraft but it is entertaining and full of ’80’s references.
Death Cure (The Maze Runner #3) by James Dashner: I also wanted to read this before the movie comes out in January. I have read the other two books in this series and it is a YA dystopian adventure revolving around Thomas and his friends (not the children’s series about trains). Sun flares have scorched the earth and now The Flare is a virus that attacks the brain and turns the host into a “crank” (a.k.a. zombie). In this book, the group is still trying to escape WICKED (World In Catastrophe: Killzone Experiment Department), the group of scientists that put this group of teens through excruciating experiments in order to design a cure for the Flare virus. Fast-paced just like the other books and it is fun to be back in the group dynamic! Although I am ambivalent on how I feel about this book series, Minho is still my favorite :).
Piper by Jay Asher & Jessica Freeburg, Illustrated by Jeff Stokely-a 4/5 Star Review!
I had the exciting opportunity to meet and see a presentation by the author Jay Asher recently (Thanks to my local Westerville Public Library for hosting!). Although he is very nice, funny, and everyone should go see him if they get a chance-I left really excited because of his next book that was being released: Piper.
Piper is a graphic novel collaboratively written by authors Jay Asher and Jessica Freeburg and illustrated by Jeff Stokely. It is a retelling of the Pied Piper and the twist is that his music does not affect one person: Maggie. Maggie is a deaf girl, hence why his music does not endanger her. Maggie’s hearing was lost due to an act of violent bullying and the injustice only stems from there as villagers continue to bully her relentlessly. Yet she continues to make the best of it by telling funny stories to her caretaker, Agathe.
The Pied Piper heroically comes to save the village from the rat infestation that has wiped out the population with starvation and/or disease. But this rescue comes at a price. A price that the village decides not to pay once the deed is done. But if they refuse to pay in cash, they will have to pay at a different price-revenge.
Graphic Novels are something that I have only recently begun to develop an interest in, my first being Brian K. Vaughn’s Saga series. I simply must find more graphic novels that have been illustrated by Jeff Stokely as the artwork is marvelous. The expressions of the characters, the movement of the wind, and the playful innocence portrayed in a single panel where the Pied Piper is eating an apple under a tree in front of a peacock, for example. I was just so moved by the illustrations and they greatly improved the storyline.
Personally, I was hoping for more out of the character of Maggie. I was initially so excited about this graphic novel because it centered around a deaf character. Both of my parents are deaf and so I expected great things from this character but I was a little disappointed. I had to take a star away because it seemed like being deaf only came into play when someone walked up behind her and scared her, when she was incorrectly pronouncing words when Agathe wrote down her stories, or when she was being bullied. I just wish a little more research would have gone into her character because although lip-reading is a way to communicate, there was not any sign language at all. Granted, I was not expecting American Sign Language in a story based in the medieval times, some home signs between Agathe and Maggie would have been redeeming. Furthermore, going back to the sneaking up behind her example, when I try to sneak up on my parents, they can feel the vibrations from my walking behind them and it doesn’t always work. What is failed to be mentioned is that when you lose one sense, the other senses get stronger.
Although I had to take one (slightly biased) star away, the story itself is minimalist yet powerful. The elements of greed and the despicable villagers are well-balanced by the purity and optimism of Maggie and Agathe despite their tragic situation. Another well-balanced aspect in this story is how both of their backgrounds are isolated, tragic, and yet they find hope in one another. Furthermore, when they go in different directions, they still protect one another making their love story even more emotional.
In conclusion, I would recommend Piper for readers who enjoy retellings, tragic love stories, unexpected heroes, and graphic novels.
I would not recommend Piper for those who may be offended on how Maggie’s deafness is portrayed, or those who may be offended or triggered by bullying, violence, kidnapping, and revenge.
There are too many great books out there for me to waste time on books like Poison. It felt like I was reading a basic outline of a piece of fiction rather than a completed novel. I skimmed through a lot of this 20% that I did read because the writing style is excessive yet basic. For example, when describing the wife it was something along the lines of saying she’s a former single mother of two, now baby makes three, and new husband makes a family of five. She works from home, requiring a babysitter so she can work while at home, working on the household chores while working, baby screaming while she’s on the phone, covering the phone with her hand to block out the screams, yet keeping a professional tone despite the maternal desire to soothe the baby.
I wish I could say that was an extreme example, however, I do not think it was that far of a stretch. It was excessively wordy yet not really revealing anything. The new husband is also excessive. He is over the top in the examples of how seemingly perfect he is supposed to be that I already did not trust him within the first few pages. It is clear that he is a bad guy, but what is not clear yet is why and how. I am sure that is further discussed in the book but, quite frankly, I just don’t care.

I have not travelled to the US since before Sept 11 '01 and I am worried that with my upcoming trip from SYD to HNL (QF) and particularly from HNL to OGG return that the locks that I have on my baggage may not comply with US requirements. These locks are just ordinary padlocks. Can anyone advise me if there are baggage lochs that the US DHS or customs prefer and if so, how can I get some?
I bought a pack of 4 TSA-approved padlocks at a Target store in the USA for US$9.99 a few weeks back.
Then at a conference last week one of the showcase vendors was giving away TSA-approved combination locks (with both the TSA logo and the vendor's logo), so I scored another 4 TSA-approved locks.
Prior to having the TSA-approved locks I have always just used plastic cable ties to secure my bags in a mannaer that the TSA can gain access if required without damaging my bag.
However, I notices that even with a TSA-approved lock installed, the locking lugs on my suit case main zipper have been broken. Not sure if they were cut (unlikely) of damaged by having the lock get caught on something and ripped off during ground handling.
Thanks, NM. These tips are really handy and the advice is good. Alittle forewarning and forward planning makes things happen more smoothly when travelling. I'll make a few more enquiries and see if its feasible to get some TSA approved padlocks before travelling - otherwise, it's the cable ties.
Be aware that even TSA approved padlocks can get cut if you get someone who cant be bothered using the tool to open them.
and put nothing even slightly valuable in your checked baggage. if you can only take carry on.
i put nothing but clothing and my amenities kit in my checked luggage. on the way home it is usually my dirty luggage TSA people steal stuff out of your bags.
I can vouch for that. Made the stupid decision to throw around $100 of foreign currency in the bottom of my checked luggage on my last trip through the LOTFAP and surprise surprise it was missing on arrival... Didn't notice until a few days later (I know but hey it's the travel induced comatosis) so took it on the chin as a punishment for stupid behaviour.
cable ties are the best locks avail - easy for thieves and TSA to cut and padlocks wont stop them so why bother with anything more expensive.
In September 2004 on my return from SEA via SFO to SYD, the last thing I packed was a small battery operated shaver and I recall it being the last thing because I nearly left at at my friends place. Anyway, bag secured with cable ties, got to SFO and checked it in and when arrived in SYD cable ties missing and so was shaver. A lot of people blame the TSA for stealing property from pax bags, but there are many people who have access to luggage after it is checked. What surprises me is why someone would want to steal a shaver worth AUD$24. Be that as it may, when I noticed the cable ties missing in Sydney I took the bag immediately to customs to cover myself, but they weren't interested suggesting that it must have been dislodged during transit and I defy anyone to break one with their hands. They need to be cut, so..
TSA approved locks are easily available in Australia - IIRC, Kmart and Myer will both have them, as will some of the other baggage/travel stores. Ebay also is a decent source for them.
Very expensive in Australia though - you tend to pay around $10-$15/lock.
Good info, Mal. I did have a look online yesterday. Even looked at the LA based business where my son is a software engineer www.shopzilla.com and came to the same conclusion that they are expensive. I didn't know that you could get TSA approved locks at KMart and Myer, so thanks for the tip. I'll have a look on Saturday. If I can't get anything I'll stick with the Korjos until I get to Honolulu and then go shopping. I really need two quad packs.
OK, so you secure your luggage with cable ties and then you arrive and they're broken.
Apart from the risk of your stuff having been stolen, what about the risk of something having been planted in your bags?
Are you supposed to go straight to the customs people and tell them that your bag has been tampered with?
If they subsequently found something, would they believe you?
Or am I just being too paranoid after the media hype surrounding Bali?
if i put something illegal in your bag cause i wanted to hide it then i would probably want to get it back ... if you and your bag got done by customs agents then i would have no chance of getting it back. you and it would be with customs.
As I indicated in my previous post, when I arrived at Sydney and noticed the cable ties missing I immediately notified customs, but they weren't interested suggesting the ties must have been dislodged during transit. However, I think I would have covered myself should my bags been searched etc.
Customs in certain countries may believe you when you say that your baggage has been tampered with.
Other countries may immediately assume guilt on your behalf (eg a chickened out drugs run) and not believe your story.
I'm not sure how I would deal with a similar situation, and how I could prove that my bags were tampered with. I think the risks of things being added to your bag is very small though for the reasons given here and a few others.
If the locks or cable ties are missing, then look inside the bag. If the TSA have opened you bag for inspection, then they are supposed to leave a note indicating so. I have had such a note inserted into my bag.
No note can mean someone other than TSA has been in the bag, so you may need to report this fact to baggage services, customs or even your travel insurance company.
Twice last week I had this.... a little sticker was also put on my luggage tag both times.
The TSA locks are the way to go.If you use plastic ties anyone could cut them off.At least with the TSA locks it is usually the nice honest officials doing it.It doesnt appear to worry them as I have had the TSA note in my luggage with the lock replaced and found that items were missing-a new case of makeup for mrsdrron.Try and report it in the good ole USA and the response is Hey it happens all the time.So as has been said never ever put anything valuable into you checked luggage to the states even if you have to answer embarrassing questions such as is this makeup for your own personal use drron.
I would not trust TSA locks not to be removed given that there are master keys for them to remove them. Cable ties are harder to replace typically ( the person would actually have to have similar ties to do it unnoticed) should someone nefarious interfere with the luggage and will be, imo, much more obvious if someone interferes with it.

A bankruptcy attorney in Honeydew is a legal advisor, who can make help you take advantage of the basic concepts of Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy, as per Federal Government law.
In some states, the courts will also offer such Bankruptcy Lawyer Referral services. If this is something you have been looking for and you are unable to find one in Honeydew, you can call the Humboldt County Courts, where you intend to file bankruptcy and get a few names to choose from. The local courts can also help you to file a bankruptcy claim with pre-defined legal fees and procedures.
The laws surrounding the insolvency process are complex and varied and can be difficult to navigate without a legal counselor to guide you. The filing process alone can be very complicated, and making the right choice on “how to file”, could have a permanent impact on the rest of your life. I recommend a Honeydew bankruptcy attorney!
