Project Description

Refinance an Office Building for a Non-profit Organization

Loan Amount: $2,580,000

Loan Type: Bridge

Our existing client was seeking to refinance this office building with Grand Pacific for the second time. Being familiar with the borrower and the property, Grand Pacific quickly processed this transaction. Some challenges we faced were:

• Sponsor was a non-profit organization
• Tenant was recovering from past financial challenges
• Future source of revenue was dependent on contract renewals which created uncertainty for underwriting

Ultimately, addition to refinancing the existing loan, Grand Pacific provided all transactional costs, payment reserves, and cash out for capital improvement.

• Grand Pacific’s acceptance of pocket to pocket leases
• Sponsor’s 27 years of experience in operating the subject business
• Visible improvement of the business’s financials
• Provided partial payment reserve to protect sponsor from unforeseen events

City Should Allow Self Managed Special Service Districts – Article by Thatcher Imboden

Thatcher Imboden, past president of the Uptown Association, writes an article on the management of Special Service Districts in Minneapolis:

The Problem
Minneapolis business districts struggle to provide cost-effective, responsive district services, like snow removal from sidewalks, holiday lighting, graffiti removal and more.

The Solution
The City should allow business districts to have the option to self-manage the services provided to the City for three primary reasons:
1.    Local management can be more responsive than the current city managed system
2. Local management can be more cost effective
3. Local management can provide better financial transparency and budgeting

Post-Hurricane Irma, British Virgin Islands accelerate the move to renewable energy

Tortola, BVI. Image: Gail Frederick.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, the British Virgin Islands are looking to enhance their energy resilience and sustainability by turning to renewables:

The British Virgin Islands (BVI) were plunged into darkness for six months when Irma, packing winds of 185 miles per hour (295 kph), uprooted electricity poles and left 400 miles (645 km) of cable littering streets and hillsides.

Like many small islands, the territory has long relied on costly imported fossil fuels to generate electric power.

But to better withstand future disasters, it is now moving toward solar and geothermal alternatives, like many others in the region from Montserrat to St. Lucia.

A series of solar energy projects is due to kick off soon, said Mark Vanterpool, BVI minister for communications and works.

“It’s in our interest to work very hard at getting as much as possible renewable energy produced,” he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

If there is a silver lining to the trauma of a blanket power outage amid a humanitarian crisis, it is the growing urgency of bolstering the electricity grid with renewable energy, officials and observers say.

Before the hurricane, there was interest in green power, but people were “moving in different directions”, said Kaitlyn Bunker of the Rocky Mountain Institute, a U.S.-based non-profit helping the BVI with its renewable energy transition.

The experience of the hurricane has “catalysed” plans, she added.
On the main island of Tortola, a privately funded 3-megawatt solar project led by local firm Caribbean Alternative Energy is close to being agreed, BVIEC’s Abraham said.

The state utility, meanwhile, aims to set up a 300-kilowatt hybrid solar, wind and energy storage system on Anegada, a remote northern island, once an agreement to lease crown land is signed.

The deal, four years in the pipeline, only made headway after Irma, Abraham noted.

Preserving Wildlife Connectivity & Enhancing Human Development: Print E-mail
( 0 Votes )
Written by The Guardian
Thursday, 20 February 2014 14:54

Belmopan, Belize
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish and protect Belize’s biological corridors and core areas that function as habitat for jaguars and their prey will be signed at 10 a.m. on Friday February 21, at the Black Orchid Resort, Burrell Boom Village, Belize District.

Signatories to the MOU will include the Government of Belize, through the Ministry of Forestry, Fisheries, and Sustainable Development, the University of Belize through its Environmental Research Institute (ERI), and Panthera.

The ERI, is dedicated to the science and conservation of natural resources and the development of Belizean human capacity. Panthera is a global non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation of wild cat species and their habitats, with a long history of jaguar conservation efforts in Belize and the Mesoamerican region. The jaguar, because of its mobility and sensitivity to human presence, along with its ecological function and its role in human culture, can provide an effective focus for monitoring the integrity of core areas and for corridor identification and conservation.

Belize protects two large forest blocks (i.e., the Maya Mountain Massif in the south and the Rio Bravo Conservation and Management Area in the north) that function as core areas for the long-term conservation of Belize’s forest resources, wildlife, and ecological services. Parties to the MOU have agreed to establish and develop programs of cooperation in consultation with stakeholders, develop strategies for biological corridors in Belize that would serve to connect the core natural areas; promote the conservation of the corridors’ biological diversity, the maintenance of the vital functions of the corridor-and-core ecosystem and their integrated management.

Another notable feature of the MOU is to ensure that proposed corridors remain ecologically functional as well as supportive of the people, communities, and livelihoods of the residents of these areas. Panthera’s Jaguar Corridor Initiative is doing just that by connecting and protecting core jaguar populations from Mexico to Argentina within human landscapes, while strategically balancing and supporting sustainable and economic human developments and mitigating human-jaguar conflict in these regions.

Panthera has partnered with ERI to assure capacity building of Belizeans in the field of wildlife research, in particular jaguar research and conservation, and develop new collaborations with NGOs to assess the abundance and distribution of jaguars throughout Belize. The ERI, the Ministry and Panthera have also worked together towards corridor conservation in Belize, with Panthera supporting wildlife biologists at the ERI and a Jaguar Officer at the Ministry’s Forest Department.

Through this partnership, Panthera has agreed to support the Ministry and ERI in securing funds for the management, monitoring and research within the area of common interest; whenever possible, the parties will seek external funding through cooperative proposals.

Signing on behalf of the Ministry of Forestry, Fisheries, and Sustainable Development, will be the Minister, the Hon. Senator Lisel Alamilla, Dr. Alan Rabinowitz, Panthera’s Chief Executive Officer, and Acting President, the University of Belize, Dr Wilma Wright.

New Foundation Website Receives Two Awards

Posted: March 01, 2012

Gulf & South Atlantic Fisheries Foundation, Inc.

TAMPA, FLORIDA – February 28, 2012 - Last July, the Foundation contracted Moore Consulting Group, based in Tallahassee, FL, to update and re-launch the Foundation’s website.  The updated website features research news, industry developments, recipes and retail locations, as well as information on seafood handling and safety. Member spotlights and project highlights showcase the value of Gulf and South Atlantic seafood to the region's economy, quality of life, and consumers.  Everyone involved is very proud of the work put into creating the finished product.  That hard work paid off last week when Moore Consulting Group was awarded two ADDY® Awards for their work on the Foundation website.
The GSAFF website won two awards 1) Gold ADDY in the interactive media category and 2) Best in “Interactive”.  The American Advertising Federation of Tallahassee (AAFT) hosts the ADDY® Awards. The annual competition recognizes creative excellence in Tallahassee and the Leon County area in all media including print, broadcast, interactive, out-of-home and public service advertising.
“Moore has been an awesome, wonderful team of professionals.  We appreciate all their hard work in making our webpage an excellent, user friendly representation of the seafood community,” said Foundation Seafood Marketing Coordinator Joanne McNeely.  “Please visit the award winning site,  We update it regularly and hope it proves to be a useful resource for the southeastern seafood community,” said Foundation Executive Director Judy Jamison.

About Gulf & South Atlantic Fisheries Foundation, Inc.
The Foundation is a private, regional nonprofit research organization with a general membership and Board of Trustees representing a wide spectrum of the commercial fishing industry throughout the southeast U.S.   Through the Foundation, the commercial seafood and fishing industry can collectively identify industry needs, and address those needs through appropriate research and other activities.  Representing the nine-state region from Virginia to Texas, the Foundation has sponsored more than 600 fisheries related research projects.

Septoplasty | Cleveland, OH

Nasal Surgery in Cleveland, Ohio

Septoplasty in Cleveland, OH

Choosing a Septoplasty or Rhinoplasty Specialist in Cleveland, OH

Those considering functional rhinoplasty or septoplasty should carefully evaluate their surgeon’s training and credentials. Dr. Brian Harmych is double board-certified by the American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery and the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and is one of the only fellowship-trained and board-certified Facial Plastic & Reconstructive rhinoplasty surgeons in the Northeast Ohio and Cleveland, Ohio area.

Impaired nasal breathing, or nasal obstruction, can be quite disruptive to a person’s quality of life. Abnormalities of the bone and cartilage framework of the nose may be inherited, congenital, or caused by trauma and prior surgery and often impair nasal airflow and nasal breathing. This problem may be exacerbated by the presence of other nasal and sinus problems such as a deviated nasal septum, enlarged turbinates, or nasal allergies. Patients often seek consultation with a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon to improve their nasal breathing. Occasionally those undergoing surgery to improve nasal breathing desire to improve the appearance of the nose at the same time.

Who is a Candidate for Functional Rhinoplasty or Septoplasty Surgery?

Healthy men and women, with appropriate expectations, seeking relief from nasal obstruction caused by a deformity of the bone and cartilage framework of the nose may be excellent candidates for functional rhinoplasty or septoplasty.

How is Functional Rhinoplasty or Septoplasty Surgery Performed?

Rhinoplasty and septoplasty may be performed with moderate sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preference. Small incisions, hidden under the nasal tip and within the nose, allow access to the cartilage and bone responsible for the shape and function of the nose. These structures are carefully adjusted to achieve the desired function and, in some cases, appearance of the nose. As each nose is unique in both appearance and function, the septoplasty and functional rhinoplasty procedures and techniques are planned to meet each patient’s individual needs. Sutures are used to close the incisions and a small external splint is placed. Internal splinting and packing are usually not necessary.

What is the Recovery Time for Functional Rhinoplasty or Septoplasty Surgery?

Both procedures are performed on an outpatient basis with most patients returning to the comfort of their own home a few hours after surgery. Patients are encouraged to be up and about on the day of surgery. Prescription pain medicine is usually required for about 3 days. Bruising and swelling last about 7 to 10 days. Activity is restricted for 2 weeks with additional avoidance of contact sports for one month. A splint over the bridge of the nose and a few small sutures near the nostril opening are removed one week after surgery and most patients are able to return to their occupational and social activities at that time. Patients undergoing a septoplasty without functional rhinoplasty should anticipate a much milder recovery with return to full activity in one week.

Harmych Facial Plastic Surgery
Cleveland, OH

“Our number one passion and priority is our patients. We strive to provide the highest level of personalized care and an exceptional patient experience. We believe in creating long-term relationships with our patients, which is why at Harmych Facial Plastic Surgery in Cleveland, Ohio you’re treated like a member of our family.”

Review by Michael Billington
Party Time, getting its world premiere, is set in smart, fashionable London. Gavin, a suave power-broker, is throwing a party at which his guests prat-tle of exclusive health-clubs, idyllic island retreats, past romantic liaisons. Meanwhile in the streets outside there is a violent disorder which is being savagely suppressed. Finally the external world intrudes in the shape of a burning white light and the vehement pres-ence of Jimmy, brother of one of the guests, testifying to the merciless extinction of dissent.
So what is Pinter saying? Not, I think, that Britain is sliding into Fascism. What he offers is an image of a style- conscious, narcissistic, bourgeois society cut off from and culpably indifferent to the in-tolerance and squalor of the outside world. I was constantly reminded of those Bunuel films in which the privileged are sealed off from reality; and Pinter's point is surely that our lives are increasingly governed by an apolitical materialism in which it is uncool to get het up about injustice and corruption.

Roger Loyd Pack, Nicola Paget, Delia Roche
photo Ivan Kyncl

What is impressive is how much Pinter crams into a short space. For he also suggests that, under the drawing-room elegance, private relationships echo public brutality. Terry, a yuppified Cockney, verbally savages his wife for asking after the fate of her dissenting brother. And, in a richly comic passage, Terry praises the har-mony of the health club where people don't do offensive things adding "and if they do we kick them in the balls and chuck them down the stairs with no trouble at all". Pinter depicts a world of increasing moral coarseness and spiritual barbarism where even the death of old friends is seen as a minor matter compared to expiration of beloved clubby institutions.
In four short scenes, Pinter pins down superbly the closed, uninformed mind and, in this version, banishes the consoling myth that it couldn't happen here.

There is no clarity in the presidential race at this point, no obvious favorite, no predictable outcome. Every factor that favors President Trump or the Democrats is balanced out by a negative trend.

A victory — or a defeat — for either party is totally plausible.

Start with some good news for the president. In the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll, Trump’s favorable rating climbs to 44 percent among all Americans and 47 percent among registered voters. That’s the highest mark of his presidency in that survey and close to Trump’s average positive rating in all national polls: 45 percent of registered voters.

But look at the negatives: 53 percent disapprove of the president’s performance in office. As ABC’s pollster Gary Langer points out, Trump has never commanded a favorable rating from a majority of Americans, and that’s “a record for any president in modern polling” after 2 1/2 years in office.

Trump’s bump in popularity is clearly related to a strong economy, which has added jobs for 105 straight months. For the first time in the ABC/Post survey, a majority, 51 percent, approved of Trump’s handling of economic matters.

Then there’s the downside. Only 38 percent give Trump credit for good economic news, while half say the Obama administration is really responsible. And trade tensions with China and slow growth in Europe could undermine voter optimism before the election.

Moreover, a majority gave the president negative marks on eight other issues tested by the pollsters. For example, only 2 out of 5 applaud his record on immigration and foreign policy, and that drops to 29 percent on climate change.

A recent Monmouth poll asked whether the president “was giving enough attention to issues that are important to their families.” Only 41 percent said yes, and 55 percent said no. Men were evenly split on the question, but by almost 2-to-1, women objected to the president’s priorities.

Trump’s personal qualities influence voter preferences even more strongly than his detailed policies, and 65 percent told the ABC/Post survey that he acts in an “unpresidential” manner, while only 28 percent found his behavior “fitting and proper.” Yet 1 in 5 voters who view him as “unpresidential” like his overall performance, a strong sign that his brutishly unconventional approach to the office is actually a good thing to many of his core supporters.

Another positive for the president: For all the talk about impeachment generated by Democratic liberals, the idea of overturning the last election falls flat with the general public. Only 37 percent favor removing Trump from office, with 59 percent against.

But denying Trump a second term through the ballot box is a very different question. A Monmouth poll reports only 37 percent, Trump’s hardcore base, favors his re-election, with 59 percent opposed. The anti-Trump feelings are concentrated among women (68 percent), whites with college degrees (63 percent), voters under 35 (64 percent) and nonwhites (78 percent).

As always, however, their animosity is balanced out by groups that like the president. Men and whites are evenly split, and whites without college degrees favor a second term for Trump by 31 points.

On the Democratic side, their best news is contained in an ABC/Post question about the “intensity gap.” Of voters who oppose Trump, 73 percent say it’s “extremely important” to deny the president a second term, while only 52 percent of Trump backers feel that strongly about re-electing him.

All votes are not equal in politics; intensity matters enormously, and the party that can capture that emotional edge has a huge advantage. The only nonincumbent Democrats to win the presidency since World War II — Kennedy, Carter, Clinton and Obama — all benefitted from an intensity bonus.

At least for now, however, the intensity gap favoring Democrats is based largely on anti-Trump feelings, not enthusiasm for any of his possible opponents.

Joe Biden remains the favorite among Democratic voters, but his margin is fueled mainly by the feeling that he can beat Trump, not by any real excitement about the kind of president he would be.

His advantage is rooted in practicality, not passion, which raises the issue: Can he take full advantage of the intensity gap? Would voters be for Biden and not just against Trump?

That’s one of many unanswered questions 16 months before the election. Everybody’s crystal ball is clouded and cracked. The only certainty is uncertainty.

Octocopters, aerial photography, 8K and 3D Video With Shahid Banglawala

We were delighted when Shahid Banglawala agreed to break his busy schedule and pop in and give a talk on Octo and Quad copters, 8K and 3D video and his rise from humble student to world renowned Octocopter pilot. Now his name appears in the credits of some of the most spectacular aerial photography. For those who wanted to get their fist insight into Aerial Cinematography or seasoned pro photographers wishing to pick up tips this was one not to be missed. From an amateurs point it also opened doors to flying a wire antenna or gentle placing wires in tree’s before ejecting the payload.
Pictured here with a ground mounted Gimble. Brilliant talk, encapsulating the skill required to fly in the darkest caves of Borneo and 20 feet above the ground in Austria. Back from his recent work filming the aerial photography for Sir David Attenborough’s Conquest of the Skies.

This recital marks the end of a successful season for Tyson in Europe, which includes his Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra debut in February, as well as recitals in Istanbul and St Petersburg. Tyson made his Wigmore Hall debut in July 2016 with violinist Benjamin Beilman.

I’ve been absent from this blog for quite some time…and a lot has happened keeping me busy and away from taking the extra steps of blogging about my crafting!  Just to name a few major ones…Pigg#4 was born, and turned one!  She’s a beautiful, spunky girl who will probably make her debut on here eventually.  Mr. Jiggs has also been traveling a lot attending conferences and interviewing for fellowship positions.  (Which we got one!  Hurray!)

But today I’m posting because I listed a quilt on Etsy!  I’ve really come to enjoy quilting in the past year but can’t think up enough excuses to make a quilt.  So I decided I’d try the Etsy thing again.  I’m starting out small and simple with a rag quilt.  I used some of my favorite colors (teal and lime) and I adore the back of the quilt.  Simple yet unique.  Go check it out!  The shop name is JillyannJiggs.

I have another rag quilt made and photographed.  Hopefully I will get it up there soon too!

NZ/Aus Days 17 & 18: Wellington

Next on the docket for us was a quick one-day stop in the nation's capital, Wellington. The weather was cool and rainy the evening we arrived so we had our fingers crossed that the forecast for the next day would be accurate. We kept our expectations low... We'd earmarked a few sights including the Parliament, the cable car, and the Te Papa National Museum, but really, Wellington for us was a place to enjoy going out for some food and drinks! We'd almost completely self-catered thus far (you remember the motel in Rotorua), and we'd heard that Wellington was known for its microbreweries. So this was the place to loosen the purse strings a little.

In the end, we got what we wished for: the rain cleared, the clouds lifted enough to go up the cable car, and Craig's beer was cold. Baby held on long enough for us to peek into the Maori exhibit before she had had enough for the day. Overall, Wellington seemed trendy and fun, active with pedestrians, runners, cyclists, etc, and a bright vibe despite the grey overhead.

If there is one thing you can predict about the energy industry, it is that the industry is unpredictable and has seen more change over the past decade than the previous half century.

With American gas and oil production up, renewable energy becoming more practical and affordable and utilities expanding their offering and becoming more than energy providers, the next five years will be interesting ones for the industry.

Production is up – and prices are down

Thanks to unconventional sources of oil and gas, such as the shale fields, American production has exceeded 10 million barrels per day since the last peak, all the way back in 1970. This puts America third in world production, just behind Saudi Arabia at 10.6 million barrels per day and Russia at 11 million per day. By the end of next year, the U.S. could exceed 12 million barrels daily. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Russia have cut back production in an effort to stabilize oil prices.

Imports have dropped from 60 percent of demand to 20 percent, and the U.S. could be a net exporter by 2020 – as it already is for natural gas.

After a brief May surge, oil prices are down to $66 a barrel. Saudi Arabia and Russia have hinted they may drop their self-imposed supply caps as they try to ease concerns about reduced production in Venezuela and Iranian sanctions. At the same time, experts see that $60 to $70 range as the “sweet spot” that benefits both producers and users – good news for the industry.

Renewables continue to grow

The future is bright for renewable energy. Solar panel prices have seen a sustained drop – more than 70 percent since 2009, and small-scale, on-site power sources, or distributed generation systems, have seen a dramatic increase in interest and implementation, especially in the solar energy field, increasing globally by 50 percent in 2016. In addition, solar energy has become so affordable as to be a practical alternative – the cost per watt has come down from $76.67 in 1977 to 60 cents.

Solar energy isn’t the only renewable source that’s seeing a boost in popularity driven by affordability. Strides in turbine technology have reduced the cost of wind energy, allowing utilities to enjoy affordable rates through 20 to 30 year contracts. The costs have dropped from nearly $90/MWh in 2009 to $20/MWh now.

Millennials, who have surpassed Baby Boomers as the largest generation represented in the U.S. workforce, want clean energy –  56 percent say utilizing clean energy sources is important, and 86 percent think the government should establish a plan for energy strategy. Millennials spend their money with companies who demonstrate similar values, and Millennials have been dubbed Green Champions..

An Accenture energy consumer survey shows that 56 percent of Millennials want to incorporate solar panels into their energy sources. Additionally, more than 60 percent will pay for a smart grid to integrate clean energy, with 30 percent identifying environmental benefits as among the most important features of a smart grid.

Forward-looking utilities expand offerings

The idea that utility companies should expand their offerings past simply supplying electricity and natural gas isn’t a new one. For years, industry leaders have known that they must diversify to thrive.

Strategic alliances have generated interest since the early days of energy services because they have been profitable. Studies have shown customers want information and choice – and when a utility offers customers programs or services in which they can chose to participate, their satisfaction increases. Customer satisfaction and engagement have been shown to increase ROI – and customer trust. Customers want a recommendation from a trusted source, which has led to a proliferation of contractor referral sites.

A partnership with HomeServe USA enables utilities to offer their customers valuable repair plans for electric service line, water heaters and other home systems. HomeServe can provide protection to utility customers who aren’t prepared for an emergency repair and increase customer satisfaction at the same time – at no cost to partner utilities.

Heels fall, Terps show their strength

That’s it. There’s no one left – neither men’s nor women’s. The last remaining undefeated team fell last night as the UNC women lost 68-65 to Maryland in overtime.

The No. 6 Terrapins will inevitably move up in the polls as they conquered the No. 1 and as Tennessee, No. 5, lost to LSU last night as well. As for the Heels, well … they might be able to keep their top spot in the polls since they beat Duke earlier in the season.
The Tar Heels led by 10 at halftime, but point guard Ivory Latta had picked up three fouls with more than seven minutes left in the first half. Latta still managed to finish with 21 points and teammate Camille Little contributed 24. Erlana Larkins put on quite a show as well, with 17 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, five blocks and three steals – all within 32 minutes. Larkins and Alex Miller both left the game with injuries.
Despite the seemingly good statistics of the Carolina players, they struggled at the foul line and shooting 13 for 27 and committed 25 turnovers. One of those missed free-throws by Latta allowed Maryland’s Ashleigh Newman to take possession and hit a 3-pointer to send the game into overtime.
Come overtime, Latta had another chance to put her team ahead. After making a 3-pointer with 27 seconds left to bring the Heels within one point, she missed a final 3-pointer at the buzzer. She claimed she was fouled, but the officials said it was all ball.
You have to hand it to the Terrapins. They have received very little attention this year despite proving how strong they are. Their only losses this season were against Tennessee and Duke, and come next Monday, they may have a chance to avenge the Duke loss at Cameron Indoor. They have three players averaging 15 points or more (Crystal Langhorne, Shay Doron and Marissa Coleman) and four players averaging nearly six or more rebounds a game.
They’re tough. Watch out Duke.

Since so many women and men experience thyroid problems, it’s important to understand what the thyroid gland is, what it does, what the symptoms are and how we treat various thyroid problems. Your thyroid gland is a large ductless, butterfly-shaped gland located in the front of your neck just below the larynx. It secretes hormones that regulate your growth and development through your rate of metabolism, which affects your weight. Your thyroid can become overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism). These conditions may, in rare instances, occur from birth, or they may develop later in life. Common thyroid problems can include:

Thyroid Nodule

A thyroid nodule is a solid or fluid-filled lump on your thyroid. Most thyroid nodules do not cause symptoms and do not require treatment. However, some larger or cancerous nodules may produce additional thyroid hormones, which require treatment with medication or surgery. Thyroid nodules occur most often in adults over 40 years of age, and most remain unaware of their presence.

This is an underactive thyroid gland that does not produce enough hormones. A hypothyroid can disrupt heart rate, body temperature and metabolism. Hypothyroidism is most prevalent in older women. The most common symptoms of hypothyroid are fatigue, constipation, unusual sensitivity to cold, dryer-than-normal skin and unexplained weight gain. The condition of hypothyroidism is often accompanied by enlargement of the thyroid gland, which is called a goiter (bulge on the lower neck). Women over 60 are more likely to have hypothyroidism, which upsets their normal balance of chemical reactions. In time, an untreated hypothyroid can cause many health problems, including obesity, heart disease, infertility and joint pain, among others.

Fortunately, accurate thyroid function tests can help us diagnose a hypothyroid. And we can treat hypothyroidism with a synthetic thyroid hormone that is usually safe and effective once you and your endocrinology specialist find the right dose.

Many Symptoms

The symptoms of hypothyroidism are many and varied, depending on the severity of your hormone deficiency. In general, these problems tend to develop slowly, often taking many years before you notice symptoms. You might barely notice symptoms of a hypothyroid such as fatigue and weight gain, or you may attribute these things to getting older. Then as your metabolism slows further, you may develop more-obvious symptoms and more of them, including:

  • Weight gain
  • Puffy face
  • Hoarseness
  • Muscle weakness
  • Impaired memory
  • High cholesterol
  • Muscle ache, tenderness and stiffness
  • Pain, stiffness and swelling of joints
  • Heavier or irregular menstrual periods
  • Slowed heart rate
  • Thinning hair, hair loss
  • Depression

If we don’t treat hypothyroidism, it can gradually become worse. With constant stimulation of your thyroid to release more hormones, you may get an enlarged thyroid (goiter). You may also become more forgetful, your thought processes may slow or you may feel depressed.

Hyperthyroid is an overactive thyroid gland, the opposite of a hypothyroid. An overactive hyperthyroid produces more hormones than the body needs. This can increase your metabolism and cause you to lose weight unintentionally, along with a rapid irregular heartbeat, sweating and irritability. Keep in mind that many older adults experience no symptoms at all. Hyperthyroid can be treated in several ways, including with radioactive iodine, medication or even surgery.

Endocrinology specialists use anti-thyroid medications and radioactive iodine to slow the production of thyroid hormones. Hyperthyroid treatment sometimes involves surgery to remove all or part of the thyroid gland. It’s true that a hyperthyroid can be serious if you ignore it, but most people respond well once their hyperthyroidism has been diagnosed and properly treated.

Hyperthyroid Symptoms

Hyperthyroid can mimic other health conditions, which often makes it difficult to diagnose. It can cause a wide variety of symptoms, including:

  • Unintentional weight loss, even when food intake stays the same or increases
  • Rapid heartbeat (tachycardia) of more than 100 beats a minute
  • Irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)
  • Pounding heart (palpitations)
  • Increased appetite
  • Nervousness, anxiety and irritability
  • Tremor usually in hands and fingers
  • Sweating
  • Changes in menstrual pattern
  • Increased sensitivity to heat
  • More frequent bowel movements
  • A goiter (swelling at the base of your neck)
  • Fatigue, muscle weakness
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Thinning skin
  • Fine, brittle hair

Older adults are more likely to have either no signs or symptoms or subtle ones, such as an increased heart rate, heat intolerance and a tendency to become tired during ordinary activities.

What is Graves’ Ophthalmopathy?

On rare occasions a problem called Graves’ ophthalmopathy can affect your eyes, especially if you smoke. The condition makes your eyeballs protrude as the tissues and muscles behind them swell. Eye problems can often improve without treatment.

Symptoms of Graves’ ophthalmopathy include:

  • Dry eyes
  • Red or swollen eyes
  • Excessive tearing, discomfort in one or both eyes
  • Light sensitivity, blurry double vision, inflammation or reduced eye movement
  • Protruding eyeballs

The four small glands in your neck are called parathyroid glands. If these glands are hyperactive (hyperparathyroidism), they may be enlarged or affected by other diseases. Symptoms of hyperparathyroidism are typically slow to develop and may include excessive urination, fragile bones (osteoporosis) or even kidney stones. If this condition is mild, we may simply keep a close eye on it. If it is more severe, we may recommend surgery. Hyperparathyroidism is the overactivity of one or more of the body’s four parathyroid glands, which are about the size of grains of rice and located in your neck.

The parathyroid glands help maintain the right balance of calcium in your bloodstream and in those tissues that depend on calcium for proper functioning, such as bones and teeth.

Two Types of Hyperparathyroidism

There are two types of hyperparathyroidism. Primary hyperparathyroidism is an enlargement of one or more of the parathyroid glands, which causes hormone overproduction resulting in high levels of calcium in the blood (called hypercalcemia). This can cause a variety of health problems, and surgery is the most common treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism.

Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a result of another disease that initially causes low levels of calcium in the body and increases parathyroid hormone levels over time.

Symptoms of Hyperparathyroidism

We can often diagnose hyperparathyroidism before symptoms become apparent. When symptoms occur, they’re usually the result of damage or dysfunction in other organs or tissues caused by high calcium levels in blood and urine or too little calcium in bones. Your symptoms may be so mild that they don’t seem at all related to parathyroid function. or they may be severe. Symptoms may include:

  • Fragile bones that fracture easily (osteoporosis)
  • Kidney stones
  • Excessive urination
  • Abdominal pain
  • Fatigue or weakness
  • Depression or forgetfulness
  • Bone and joint pain
  • Frequent feelings of illness with no apparent cause
  • Nausea, vomiting or loss of appetite

2011 Birthday Reflection

My Xth Birthday Reflection

March 8th, 2011

Today, on the anniversary day of my entry into the world, kneeling down before my Creator, I commit all the rest of my life on earth to Him, knowing that for life after this, He has prepared eternal home for me along with all of His children. And when the Spirit inspired me His forgiveness for all my misuse of my past time on earth and let me see clearly my life and time on His palm, I am so relaxed and peaceful against all the dirt, flirts, and skims of the evil one! As I keep growing, the increase of my knowing draws me closer to the reality of my being and my Creator and our relationship much deeper and sweeter! The closer I am to my Creator, the brighter His light, enlightening my insight to see the broken pieces of His own image in me that He is restoring His images in me as I live in Him and  Christ in me!

Looking back to the past;

There were times when I was in a dark-room inside my mother’s womb, worrying nothing.

There were times when my presence creates a lovely and enthusiastic environment.

There were times when I was so innocent and ignorant about the world around me.

There were times when I was introduced the world of trouble and mismanagement.

There were times when I was standing at the gate of death and knocked the door.

There were times when I was physically totally knocked down on the ground.

There were times when I was spiritually totally knocked down on the floor.

There were times when slanderers, gossipers, accusers fiercely pierced my heart.

There were times when I faced the explosion my maximum stupidities.

There were times when my eyes flooded with tears because of the suffering of my people.

There were times when I pleaded God to take my life for not willing to see the sufferings of my people.

There were times when I felt my heart was so close to that of Moses, like Exodus 32:32, that I named my son Moses!

There were times when I felt like God totally abandoned me and my people for disobeying Him.

There were times when I lost hope for our people because of the actions of the ignorant brethren.

There were times when I lost the meaning of life while crawling thru spiritual dungeon.

There were times when I blamed others for all the bad things happening in my life and my world.

There were times when I thought I was not the only responsible person for my own happiness and so to blame others all the times for my dissatisfaction.

There were times when I falsely accused others for not making me happy.

There were times when my heart and spirit was totally smashed down on the ground by the twists and turns of history.

But in the Lord;

He restored all my hope and dream and showed me a vision that directs my life straight to the final destination

But I now see the entire root causes of problems are not political, social, financial, physical health, or the ignorance of brethren but broken relationship with Creator.

But I now see that no one in the world has power and authority to condemn me for any reason before God and take away my Creator's promise for me.

I Now see the deceptive tool of my enemy to deceive me and prevent me from accessing my Creator's rich purpose for and in me is my own unbelief, lack of faith and self-righteousness that blame, accuse others, enriching my heart with hatred and bitterness, imprisoning my soul under trap.

Now I walk on a victorious path that my Lord has paved with His own blood.

I now see myself at the palm of my Creator that with His simple word my life and my world can be changed at any time, any level, any rate, any speed.

That He taught me how to walk the life I live on, surfing and enjoying the flow of historical waves.

For years my heart was laboring for self-storage, trying to acquire great things on earth; but I now lay down all I have been given before the Giver-God that He may use them for His purpose as He planned before He made me and formed me!

I now learn that nothing has value in itself without purpose that the purpose of my existence is pre-determined by my ultimate life Designer, my God and my Savior in whom I do exist, move, and live.

I thank God for enlightening me that He did not create anything that can take away His promise from me! Now, as a partaker of divine nature, a steward, a fellow brother in the family of God, to share his glory and reign with Him for eternity, more than anything the world can offer me, I enjoy Him and our relationship every moment, with a deeper longing for the eternal home where His eternal presence shall overshadow everything for the praise of His glory!

Life on earth is temporary and the world is our field of preparation for eternity!

That I, through service and by the working of the Holy Spirit, am being prepared, reshaped, remolded, in the image of the Son of God to share the Son’s eternal reign and glory! Amen!
