    I was reading up on Australia's list of MBTs I didn't know they hadn't gotten new armor in a while I thought they had tried to procure some challengers sometime back did it fall thru or just wishful thinking on someone's part when the British announced plans to mothball their tanks. Anyway will these Abrams have the latest anti tank defense system and tusk?

    "Junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET) is a rare syndrome of the heart that manifests in patients recovering from heart surgery. It is characterized by cardiac arrhythmia, or irregular beating of the heart, caused by abnormal conduction from or through the atrioventricular node (AV node)."

    Here I go again...

    Hang in there, we need you. Some of these over-educated idiots who write books,( while they can be entertaining), need to hear facts. Not that that has ever changed their minds, let alone even caused them to pause and think.

    About 80% of the time this can be corrected by cardiac ablation without having to have a pacemaker. Get a consult from a good electrocardiologist. The proceedure is relatively safe and is done using a catheter.

    Good luck and keep us informed.

    I saw they did well in the cross country events as well got a number of medals there. I thought they'd do good in that even find land has done well in cross country several times before.

    Has anyone seen "Power of the dog" yet?

    WOW

    Second worst movie i have ever seen - "Fried green tomatos" still holds the number one spot.

    A truly awful movie (and as expected is nominated for Oscars from the pretentious film noir dicks who have never heard of the story Emperors new clothes).

    If you come across this movie...keep clicking that remote.

    Yeah, I saw it on Netflix a few months ago. You are correct about how they vote for some of these movies that I, for the life of me, cannot understand their logic. I guess I like to suffer, I did so for the entirety of the movie. And I am not the best either, at understanding plots.

    Congrats on making it through to the end...says something good about you...i made it to the mud bath scene, my exact words were "i'm done with this movie". The two people i was with (Gf & Brother) were both relieved at being given an out on this movie and we all watched something else.

    I'm glad I never made the Olympics in cross-country skiing.

    Yeah winter outfits for events don't look practical or warm I really feel sorry for the girls during parades and performances you know their trying to keep moving just to keep warm I bet those girls can't wait to get a hot shower or in a heated room and something hot to drink. It's funny how lots of people think liquor will help warm you but I read it does the opposite that alcohol actually thins your blood and makes you lose body heat faster. They conception mainly comes from that titanic survivor that was drunk and survived but they say that what happened to him is the liquor made him nummtomthe cold he couldn't feel and for some reason he kept swimming the fact that he kept moving is what kept him from freezing. The drinking of alcohol just makes you feel flushed and warm but it's only a feeling and your body temp doesn't increase but if your cold and not endanger of freezing it can refreshed you a bit. Maybe that's why a hot toddy or Irish coffee baileys and coffee are popular during winter warms you the hot drink and the alcohol lifts your spirits, is that maybe why liquor was called spirits? Funny how in a lot of pictures they are always drinking brandy to warm up in a cold day. What is it about brandy isn't that what those Saint Bernards suppose to carry in a lil keg on their necks?

    I guess they might try medication and perhaps max it if possible. Depending on the pulse ( too slow ) or propagation going too long in ecg usually there is only help of putting a pace maker. Too slow pulse can cause rhythm disorders and sometimes putting the rest pulse to 70/min with the pace maker can make rhythm disorders disappear. Actually quite individual treatment. Some people can have a rhythm disorder with rest rate of 140/min and feel nothing. Then again we have people with occasions problems and are invalized by it and need a pace maker for quality of life.

    Also very true. The position of the starting place in heart often defines whether ablation can help. You can also put a pace maker and Burn the Av-node with ablation so the impulse from atrium does not get through. The only problem then is that you're totally dependent on the pace maker but used more often.
