  1. That's awful Shelly. I can't help wondering how the hell did the water get into the gas pipes without the gas escaping outside and producing a nice fire or explosion. Hopefully you can find a cheaper alternative. Good luck!
  2. I recommend my patients either fluticasone or mometasone. There are two different fluticasone preparations, one is furoate (Avamys) the other is propionate (Flixonase). It's possible the adverse effects you experienced are related to the presentation. I prefer these newer drugs over the older ones like beclomethasone for they have way less systemic absorption, induce less tissue atrophy (if any at all) so may be used for very long periods. In any case nose bleeding is the most common side effect of either Flixonase and Avamys, with almost 10%. This with Nasonex (mometasone) is less frequent, so you might give it a try.
  3. I'm no allergies specialist. The only tests I'm slightly familiar with are the scratch ones, which would use in this case the common allergens. There are inhalation tests which are more used for asthma patients, not usual at all (though there may be working protocols at some places, not where I work) for rhinitis. If she's sure this is related to the workplace (she gets better at home and in other rooms at the working place) and not to some pollen in the working area, I'd have the room cleaned thoroughly by specialists, but the ideal would be knowing what's the responsible substance, just imagine if it's some component in the wall paint. If symptoms are only nasal and they cannot determine the allergen responsible, I'd try nasal steroids and a different antihistamine which doesn't produce the sleepiness of benadryl.
  4. Amarra full version for $60 for all your friends? Wow, that's a big discount

    RIP Jon Lord

    Rest in peace, Jon.
  6. Big hugs your way, Jacob. I hope the outcome is the best for you.
  7. Start with Pot of Gold
  8. Yep, I like her. Do you know Alice Russell? If not give her a listen too.
  9. Tyll, I think it'd be interesting measuring the HD800 with the back grill covered. I think the change in the measured performance has more relation to that than for the sound from the 650 adding on. I guess there will be some differences from covering it with some foam, paper or try to completely seal it. What I don't think has any relation is the balanced/SE think which was suggested on the other site.
  10. You sir killed that thread
  11. Whoa, full size CONGRATULATIONS!!!
  12. Good luck, best wishes
  13. Rest in peace Ernest. He was one of my favorite actors since childhood.
  14. Happy belated Birthday, Mike. I wish it was an awesome day, and it's a great year to come
  15. Woah, really late to this one. I wish you had a great one, mate
  16. Happy Birthday Greg
  17. It worked, thanks Brent
  18. It isn't working either
  19. Blocked by college humor, not sure if based on location or a general ban.
  20. Grease on the lenses? Any of the lens coatings deteriorated? It looks more like haze a la Hamilton than overexposure
  21. Sorry for the pandemonium Carl, take care of the injured
  22. It's a really wonderful picture
  23. The problem with the K1000 is not the driver material or the surroundings, but the adhesive they used to hold the membrane in place. Picaudio posted some pics elsewhere from a driver which was failing. I guess the adhesive losing its properties is just a matter of time, which probably can be worsened by poor caring, adverse climate, etc. AFAIK the Grados in general don't have the same deterioration problems of other headphones.
  24. Not the funniest, but still an intelligently spent day. Good luck with the mcat and Happy belated Bday
