Happy Mardi Gras & Wheezing

Many of you may have heard the adage "all that wheezes is not asthma." As an intern, a first year physician out of medical school, a colleague came across a case of what she thought was asthma. The child was the right age, right symptoms, and a pretty typical presentation. The only problem was she did not get better with the typical treatment. She eventually underwent a bronchoscopy, a special lighted, flexible scope is inserted into the lungs, and surprisingly the lung specialist found a mardi gras bead that was not showing up on x-ray!

NBC Olympic Coverage

NBC Olympic Coverage: NBC’s Olympic coverage is excellent. Winter Olympic Games to attract hundreds of thousands of fans all over Europe and America. The game became extremely popular. There are a large number of people switching from TV sets to enjoy the Games.
NBC, which brings together in a live event, has become popular overnight. Has developed a kind of sub-standard record level of viewers. Gamecoverage is anger.
In the first three days to cover the match touched new heights. The game being broadcast live from Vancouver attracted some 28.6 million viewers a day. This is 25 percent more than in 2006 Turin Games.
A look at NBC’s coverage of the Winter Olympic Games:
Michaels back: negotiating a new contract with the Foundation in 1992, Al Michaels that included in his deal that he will replace Jim McKay to host the Olympic Games. After all, usually broadcast on the BBC Olympics and expressed confidence it would win the rights for the 1996 Atlanta Games.
Instead, NBC won those games, and each subsequent one in 1998 with the exception of the Nagano Games, which were broadcast on CBS. Was an unrealized dream for the veteran broadcaster.
Now that he’s in the Nahr al-Bared, Michaels is back in the Olympic Games for the first time since 1988. Bob Costas is entrenched such as the face of the games, but Michaels has been hosting coverage of the day.
“I really missed in the first and that I never thought I’d have a chance to do one again,” said Michaels.
Vancouver Olympic Games on the occasion of 30th anniversary of his professional life at the moment of signing: The United States’ epic upset of the Soviet Union ice hockey in Lake Placid. Michaels’ We also call upon the final seconds ticked away – “Do you believe in miracles?” – Is engraved in history.
Question was difficult with malice aforethought. Remember walking to the square with the broadcast partner Ken Dryden said he hoped that the result was close enough – say the Soviets 3-1 in the second period – ABC, which did not lose its audience. No one imagined that the United States had a chance.
During the final seconds intensive, she was sent to hockey on the ice outside the center, giving Michaels to utter the moment the call. If you’d asked him a few hours later, said Michaels, he probably would not have remembered what he said. Instead, it has become the eternal ode to the story written by the American team.
Is us: Bob Costas. The smooth running Sunday deserves to be mentioned, where the hosts to be easily taken for granted. Costas offered a moving tribute to Kumaritashvili. Sharing the story of an American pairs skater competing against his girlfriend, the feast day of love is inspiring. And he allowed American skier Hannah Kearney tells the bar of their poles gold medal run, and then noted dryly to the test and clear for theOlympic Games for 2014 broadcast team.
LOWLIGHT: The Prime Minister-time and file Ono already felt like a repeat – in the night of the Olympic Games.
Ratings: For the second consecutive night, in the Olympic Games in the beatings. Aired last Saturday, which featured Ono silver medal performance and Kearney take over the country the first gold medal in Vancouver, was seen by 26.2 million people, according to The Nielsen Company
That was more than any other night for NBC’s coverage in Turin, Italy, four years ago.
Those ratings are very encouraging for NBC to consider in figure skating, and overall the most popular event for television viewers, were not started yet. Saturday tends to be less than watching television every night of the week, NBC’scoverage has been padded because the postponement of the men’s Alpine ski event unexpectedly transmitted over the network with the fullness of time.
North: Al Trautwig and Chad Salmela bring enthusiasm appropriate to raise the completion of the combination of the Nordic countries, where he earned a silver medal Johnny Spillane was thefirst American ever to win a medal in this event. We did not have this statement Trautwig: “If you’ve been for a long time in the Nordic combined Olympic observers, can not believe what you see.” Yes, each and every one of you.
Sweet shot: the elimination of broadcast prime minister in a timely manner with a picture of Canadian Alexandre Bilodeau gold medal hugging his brother Frederick, who suffers from cerebral palsy, was beautiful.

John Mayer Play-boy Interview Text: Now Apologizing To Fans (VIDEO)

Feminists, afro-americans and a lot of other people may just be looking for an appropriate chance to behead John Mayer for the diatribe he decorated the pages of  with, but voices of support are trickling in, too. And ones rooting for John are all praise for his honesty, candidness and above all, his sizzling wit.
In a  interview musician John Mayer, apologized for the nonsense on his Twitter webpage and said, “N-word word in an interview, I’m sorry”, he tweeted. “I should have never said the word and I will never say it again.”
And that is understandable. Because here, as happens in many other cases, the problem occurs with having a partial view of the story. Many of those folks who would not forgive John for the life of them are generally the ones who have not read the whole interview. And that is one reason why the controversial remarks are appearing so scorching to them. Apparently the playfulness of those remarks is lost to them. That so often happens when you present something out of context. Like John talked about a lot many other things during the interview. And the wit and easy sense of humour visible in those remarks are really refreshing, especially amidst all these vain and vapid celebrities bludgeoning us all the time with their vainer and ‘vapider’ remarks. And periodically when they do say something out of the book, as if to attract the glare, they are so utterly unimaginative and badly scripted.
The singer John Mayer, @johncmayer on Twitter, put this 3-tweet post on his feed:
Re: using the ‘N word’ in an interview: I am sorry that I used the word. And it’s such a shame that I did because the point I was trying/ to make was in the exact opposite spirit of the word itself. It was arrogant of me to think I could intellectualize using it/ because I realize that there’s no intellectualizing a word that is so emotionally charged.
Mayer had the bad luck to have his interview in  (warning: NSFW) reach a wide online audience during a snow day, when the Twitterati were generally housebound and looking for something to talk about. And talk folks did. Among the, uhm, bracingly frank statements he made, two are getting the most attention.
First, the “n-word.” From the interview:
I come on very strong…. That’s why black people love me….. Someone asked me the other day, “What does it feel like now to have a hood pass?” And by the way, it’s sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a nigger pass. Why are you pulling a punch and calling it a hood pass if you really have a hood pass? But I said, “I can’t really have a hood pass. I’ve never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, ‘We’re full.’”
What caught my eye more was this one:
: Do black women throw themselves at you?
MAYER: I don’t think I open myself to it. My dick is sort of like a white supremacist. I’ve got a Benetton heart and a fuckin’ David Duke cock.
I’ve interviewed white supremacists, and the punchline to this joke falls… limp. I can roll with some pretty raw or adventurous humor, but this fratboyesque ahistorical cheap shot shows a profound misunderstanding of of white supremacy. Today’s white supremacists may decry “miscegenation,” but white supremacy resulted in an awful lot of race mixing — the forceable kind. Mayer’s father is Jewish and I wonder how much he knows or cares to about the violent history of white surpremacists towards Jews in the US and abroad.
But what I just said sounds too on-the-nose and preachy even for my own tastes. The reality is that it’s insulting to say black people love you and then profoundly misunderstand the difference between entitlement and humor. The entitlement goes beyond race to (again, boorish) comments about women by name and generally, and an obsession with generalizing his experiences at 32 as if every man shares the same perspective. (Note the phrase “that’s what you do….” If all men do, write in and let me know.):
….during sex, I’m just going to run a filmstrip. I’m still masturbating. That’s what you do when you’re 30, 31, 32. This is my problem now: Rather than meet somebody new, I would rather go home and replay the amazing experiences I’ve already had.
Hey, if that’s his thing, that’s his thing. But to overgeneralize it seems presumptuous and self-serving.
Using the “n-word” publicly often results in an apology, and this is no exception. I think his use of the word isn’t enlightened but it isn’t at all like, say, comedian Michael Richards’. But there’s a lot more going on in this interview around race and gender. I wondered, on Twitter, after doing my share of venting and listening, if we could redirect the conversation in a more positive direction. And the folks in my circle on Twitter really had some fabulous things to say. Among them:
From @bookofjames: The premise of your query doesn’t really get to the root of the problem. Racism cannot be effectively “treated” by triage.
I replied that was open to these random, Twitter-fied pop culture teachable moments, and gave my own two-tweet example:
I had an Asian-American friend who used a term about another Asian-American group. This was over 20 yrs ago in college./ I used term, and a white student schooled me that it was not okay to use. It was a learned moment. Stuck with me.
I hope the conversation was thought provoking for those of us sending in our short-form missives on Twitter. I also hope this entire experience has given Mayer some food for thought. I have compassion for the fact that celebrity makes every move of those who have it uber-public. Not one, but two of Mayer’s songs (including “My Stupid Mouth”) contain the line “I’m never speaking up again,” and now he may well feel like taking his own advice. But that would be a shame. Sometimes the only way to learn is by messing up, getting checked… and then learning to check yourself.
