He had no complaints, like many men who come to my office for an appointment
scheduled by their wives, but as I was asking routine questions he told me
that food sometimes catches on the way down.
Since this symptom can be an early sign of cancer I scheduled an EGD
to look at his esophagus with a scope.
We were both pleased it wasn't cancer but I was surprised to find another case
of what used to be a very rare disease called Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
It was the second time I ran into this in the last few years,
and I was aware of a few children in town who also had the diagnosis.
It was one of those conditions you hear about as a med student,
but never see... except now we are finding much more of it.
Eosinophilic esophagitis, or EE, is characterized by an inflammation
of the esophagus and the finding under microscope of many of a special type
of white cell called eosinophil.
We've learned this diagnosis can occur in young children to older adults
with symptoms of reflux, trouble swallowing, and even food catching or getting stuck.
It is interesting how EE brought specialty groups together.
First the Pathologists started seeing more eosinophils on pieces of esophagus
biopsied by both Pediatric and adult Gastroenterologists in patients
referred by Pediatricians, Internists, and Family Physicians.
Since eosinophils are an indicator of an allergic process,
the patients were then sent to allergists, who put it together.
We've discovered it's generally related to food allergy, cow's milk the most common offender,
and is treated by avoidance of the allergenic food, by anti-reflux medicines,
and by swallowing a steroid spray that is usually used for asthma.
And we're not sure why this formerly rare disease is happening
more often now, but we have our suspicion.
Of course C-sections can save lives, baby formula is sometimes necessary,
and less dirt means less infections, but we think EE might be secondary
to our overly clean environment, sterile baby bottles,
and our too persnickety way with the food to which our babies are exposed.
Imagine that! There might be an advantage for babies who come down that non-sterile birth canal,
who suckle up against mamas' breasts awash with normal flora, and who are exposed,
not protected, from the dirty world in which we live.

Maker Series: Leah Daniels-Butler | Season 3 | EMPIRE - Duration: 3:28.
I grew up in Philadelphia.
We were five kids, and my father was a police officer
who died in the line of duty.
We were very young.
I just grew up with simple things,
just wanting a job and a family.
It wasn't a dream that I wanted to go to Hollywood
and I wanted to be a casting director.
[music playing]
Your life does influence anything that you do.
You have to draw on those experiences,
otherwise you're not being truthful.
One more time.
Less fake when you're coming back to the girl, OK?
Here we go.
And action.
Lee is really big on casting real people
and capturing real moments.
I will go to showcases, I will go to plays.
Sometimes I even visit people's acting schools.
For some roles, I'm heavy on social media,
in terms of Twitter and Instagram.
People just want to see things that they can identify with.
Oh, renewed, yes!
Congratulations, second season.
Yeah!
All right, I'll talk to you later.
All right.
When we did "Precious," I got a lot of e-mails on my web site
about how they could identify with
that character and all that the character went through.
When you do something that they can identify with
and know that they can rise above it,
that is definitely rewarding.
When people say "Empire" changed the way casting was done
and the way television was, I think
a certain culture just spoke.
Give me your hand.
Give me your hand, boy.
The casting was definitely a very important part
of "Empire," because you had to create this world
that people would buy into.
For casting the boys, and we had trouble finding
two actors that could really sing,
so we had to open it up to rap.
When I first saw Yazz on tape, I'm like,
he's raw but he had these moments.
What makes somebody like a natural versus a not natural
is not being aware of the camera when you're acting,
and just getting lost in that.
And that's what he was able to do.
He wasn't as polished so there were some things
he just didn't know.
So his second audition ever was reading with Terrence.
And the way Terrence just took to him right away.
You need to get your act together.
You going to pull out a phone when I'm talking to you?
It was like the perfect moment.
It was like father and son.
You could see the television show in front of you unfolding,
and I was like, oh, this is the guy.
It's him.
It's without a doubt him.
It sounds so stupid and so cliche,
but I call them Cinderella stories.
You know, those things happen very few and far in between.
It happens a lot with us, with our casting,
because we're always looking for real and authentic people.
And thank God we can do that.
You know what I mean?
Thank God we can change people's lives and make dreams
come true.
[music- empire cast, "throne"] We bow down at his feet,
the crown is his alone, I'm looking at my king
take back his throne.

The world, that has never existed - Duration: 12:23.
I remember myself well from my early age.
I was younger than 1 year and I remember myself.
And I remember my first words,
I remember my baby cot.
People say that it somehow indicates...
if you remember yourself well in a childhood
there is some kind of artistic
potency.
The world, that has never existed
Flight Over Lithuania or 510 Seconds of Silence
Maybe the desire "to say" is encoded...
but the question is...
if it's only directing? Not necessarily.
I don't even know if I'm director...
or at some point
observer... or mathematician, what is mine
primary profession.
And it's also related to directing.
So I don't know
I didn't have artistic expression. Sciences was more important for me.
Such as physics and mathematics.
I took part in various Olympiads.
Sport was also important. My mom encourage me to exercise.
At the same time I took part in 2 or 3 types of sports.
Go from one training to another.
When I was 14 or 15,
I got interest into cycling. That's also took my time.
The same as my maths classes
In "Saules" gymnasium,
where students from provincia were coming to learn math.
But I remember one time, when I had to write an essay
in 11 grade
and all the time I was bad at these things...
It wasn't "my thing".
But one time, we needed to write an essay
And I thought that
I don't want to write as usual and to follow the rules and I wrote it differently
And my teacher was surprised in a good way.
So it was the first exampe of my artistic potential.
Then something happened.
I wanted to talk about that,
what I can see.
And that was
such a strong feeling and it was risk as well.
It started from my essays,
but it was clear that writing is not for me.
I wanted to tell things through different media.
I started to paint. But then I realized that
I want to make movies.
Ten Minutes Before the Flight of Icarus
The begining was very complicated.
I had to quit my maths studies.
Because there was only 1 program of film studies every 5 years
That means,
if you didn't apply for it...
it was
I think that
it was one of the bigest contest
to apply for film or acting studies
dozens of student applying to one place
for example, 5000 of applicants and they acepted only 10 or 12.
It was a little chance for me to get a place
because I was studying only maths.
But I took risk, I left my university.
And what if I wouldn't get a place? One option left - to go to military.
Nowadays,
our generation,
which was born in independence period,
they didn't have to make this kind of choice.
To go to Lithuanian military,
that would be an honour,
but at my times, there was no Lithuanian military.
Our new generation has more choices
At my times, if you don't get a place to study,
your all life could be ruined.
So,
that's it.
That's why there are not so many films
of my generation.
That was a risk
to make that kind of choice.
I was studying with him. I met him when I
Applied to
conservatory, to television and film studies.
They expeled me after 3 years
They expeled me after 3 years
And he stayed there.
And I think that his best qualities revealed there.
Because he was
I don't know how to say... He was like a plodder.
He was very zealous, attentive.
Teaching methods were very odd.
We had to become directors of TV,
but we appear in TV only in 3rd course...
From the Unfinished Tales of Jerusalem
What is cinema?
Basically you create a world,
like a God created life,
that has never existed before.
And not because of the money,
No chance.
It's cultural thing.
It shouldn't be business.
Sunday. The Gospel According to Lift-man Albertas
The thing I remember most clearly
it was when my father was directing
The Gospel According to Lift-man Albertas
And he took as to the old one Lithuanian cinema studio
and there in a dark space
they were recording sound.
walking through the sand, making sounds with cups...
It was very interesting experience
and usually
you won't see it anywhere else.
There were liftboys in all hospitals.
I'm not sure if they still exist.
I met him in one hospital.
Later I saw him in another.
But film wasn't about him.
It was about all these garages in Siaures Miestelis,
where were military bases at first, which was left
by soldiers. After that, people started there own "BUSINESS"
in those garages.
My daughter was ill.
And we spent
a lot of time in the hospital.
And that was oncology hospital.
It was very hard.
But on the other side...
it was the most important period
in my life after 13th of January.
There I saw that God really exists.
And he is very close.
I felt his breathing.
That was very related with our experience.
And that always...
after that...
it was clear that I
hadn't experienced anything like this
in my life.
It was so strong. So clear.
I couldn't create a film about anything else.
Because that was a huge part of my life.
And you always try to tell about what is the most important for you.
It was my family
experience
it was something that didn't let me
till I created that movie.
I wanted to share my emotions,
that you can feel God anywhere.
And people can be happy every moment, everywhere.
The biggest gladness can reach you even in the hospital.
As well as the biggest pain.
The hospital was the stop between sky and earth.
After which
Someone goes back to the earth and someone flies to the sky.
And film is about that period.
Who will be lucky will back to earth.
Who won't
or who has his own destiny
will get into heaven.
I am learning from him.
He is free.
I want to be free as well.
Arunas doesn't afraid to share.
He has a bit of paranoia
but he doesn't afraid to share
his own experiences and that
"know how"
He lets to
know about himself.
He trusts people.
Award is not so important.
When you get a message that you are nominated
for example to Oscars,
then yes,
maybe yes.
But mostly, it is just a part of show business.
but not
real gladness
I have never had these thoughs
to create or not.
I always create what I want.
And it doesn't depend on amount of the money.
Your idea is everything.
You choose the things that are important.
Every time
you gain more experience
and all this process is more close to you.
Why people play violin? Because they cannot not to do that any more.
Are they playing well?
Perhaps, if they cannot stop doing that.

LÄMPÖKUOLEMA // INTENTS FESTIVAL 2017 (FIN/ENG) - Duration: 11:40.
Good morning from the couch!
Yesterday went little bit bad, because of the 'camera scene'
But still I had fun at the rest of the night
Felt like it ended way too early
It ends at...Umm. 00:00 or 01:00?
I try to shoot tonight more the stages and artists
Try not to talk so much than yesterday
Now it's time to leave
The weather is way too hot for me
We finally get our backstage passes
and now we at the backstage
Everybody is here
It's something like 8pm and the temperature is finally getting down
Also started to wind in here, now we can do also something else than sit only in the shadows
Let's get this party started!
Now we are leaving, Luna is waiting for us (our dog)
We leave little bit earlier, so there's no rush, I think
And also.. I'm too old for this shit (:D)
We are now at home and I thought that finally I can rest..
But no.. Here is some party in the village
And it really sounds like we are still at the festival
Buuut.. maybe they stop partying soon, it's almost 1 am
So, the summary of this weekend.. We are not going there anymore tomorrow
Positive feeling after all
There was a couple things wich didn't went how it should, but still
It was a really good experience
I really thought that it's bigger
I expect that it's something like Defqon
All of the videos and photos what I have seen before, it looked way bigger than it actually was
Well, it was really huge, but if I compare it to Defqon, it's way smaller
But yea, about yesterday (friday)
Somebody forget to take camera with him, so there goes my filming gig..
I was so dissapointed, that I cried there too
And today (saturday), we got some problems with entrance and backstage access
First we didn't get the bracelets at all
And at the entrance where every normal visitors goes inside, there was that security check
And they took my camera leg away and throw it to the trash
I was really pissed off, because of that security woman
I said to her that if that's not allowed, I'm gonna take it back to the car, it's so expensive
She didn't let me go anywhere, she just took it from my hand and throw it to the trash
And if I go, she's not gonna let me in anymore
I was like WTF, why I can't take this to the car..??
That's really huge minus to the people of security.. Because, I don't see there any reason why she didn't let me go then
We weren't inside yet, we were at the entrance still.. So weird
I think tomorrow we are just gonna chill.. It's gonna be hot day again
Luna is here, did you miss us?
Look at to the camera
Did you miss us so much?
We are going to sleep, gooood night!

NWS Tulsa Briefing - Duration: 2:10.
Good afternoon…this is your work week weather outlook issued by the National Weather Service in Tulsa Oklahoma on Thursday, June
1, 2017. Thunderstorm chances will continue to increase, with locally heavy rainfall possible by
Saturday. Temperatures will be largely a function of cloud cover, but will generally remain near normal.
Before looking at the weather, we do want to remind you that water levels on some rivers and reservoirs remain very high. Flood Advisories
continue for two points on the Arkansas River until further notice, as water levels remain near or just below flood stage.
The chance for scattered thunderstorms will increase into Friday as a weak and slow moving upper level system approaches from the
southwest. Weak flow aloft will limit the overall potential for severe weather, though a few strong wind gusts or locally heavy downpours
can't be ruled out.
The upper system will move overhead Saturday, and this will be the period that sees greatest aerial coverage of thunderstorms. The severe
threat remains minimal, but due to greater coverage, there will be an uptick in the threat for locally heavy rainfall amounts.
While widespread excessive rainfall is not anticipated, a few locations, especially across southeast Oklahoma, could see amounts
approaching 2 inches. The rainfall is not expected to lead to any further mainstem river issues, but localized flooding could occur.
By Sunday, the upper system will begin to move off to our east, with the main threat of thunderstorms shifting to the east as well.
Taking a quick look at next week, there will be an overall downward trend in thunderstorm chances as a weak backdoor cold front brings
drier and slightly cooler air into the region.

Spiritual Loneliness - Duration: 7:51.
It would be nice
to have somebody there,
to have a partner or a friend
or a mentor
and...
to share
the journey
with somebody
and to grow together.
And I...
experienced that.
For a long long time
I was alone.
I didn't have anybody
that I could share my...
deep spiritual longings with
and deep spiritual aspirations with.
Yes, I have beautiful friends
and we talk about spiritual things
but...
you know...
the kind of the really deep,
really deep
experiences...
You want somebody
who is...
walking at the same speed as you,
or maybe somebody
who is ahead of you.
So I totally understand.
I had this craving
of wanting
to have a spiritual mentor,
teacher
or a partner,
or somebody
who is at the same level as me
or ahead of me
so I could share
and talk
and really dig into it.
It's been very lonely.
The path of...
spiritual evolution
can be very very lonely.
Because
we are leaving at this time
where we are just waking up.
So humanity is just waking up.
I mean, now over 90% of humanity
is still asleep.
You know, so...
If you are on the spiritual path
it is pretty hard
to find somebody
who is at the same level as you,
or ahead of you.
We are out there,
but it's like,
normally,
we are not surrounded by those people
because over 90% of humanity
is still asleep.
So... we are the first wave.
This first wave of souls
that are waking up and connecting
with the truth of who they are,
they have this deep longing and craving
to be connecting
with the same souls,
with the souls
who are on the same path,
who are interested in the same things,
who are more interested
in...
being of service
then...
you know, getting occupied with...
buying a big house
or a car...
You know, worrying about...
money and other things.
Those things are important,
but for the majority of people
this is all there is in life.
So... you know, I call it the 3d life.
But...
you know, if you are the person
who is moved beyond
the 3d life...
We are not rejecting it,
we still need to be able
to manage it effectively, of course.
But we know
there is more to life.
And we've had experience of it.
So we want to hang out with people
who we can talk
about these things with,
who we can share
those experiences with
who we can go deeper with.
When I met my spiritual teacher,
finally in this life time,
I heard her say this thing:
On our spiritual path
we need to be like a camel.
Like a camel that carries its own water.
Because...
sometimes
there may be nowhere to drink.
Which means
there will be...
nobody to...
There will be nothing
to nourish us.
So we need to be able
to be self-sustained
and self-sufficient
in our ability
to nourish ourselves.
If there is nobody else
and there is nowhere
to be nourished
we need to be able to sustain ourselves
because if we can't
then...
Well, what about all those others folks?
Where are they going to drink from?
So we, the ones who are...
this wave of souls
that are waking up
and moving forward
and pushing, pushing, pushing
our spirituality,
we need to be strong enough
and self-sufficient enough
to go it alone.
For as long as it takes.
For as long as it takes
you need to be able
to sustain yourself.
And then
you will start meeting your soul family
and your spirit family.
You will start to be able to connect
with other souls
that are on the same page as you.
But
if you are feeling alone now,
please know
one thing: is that you are never alone.
Because
in the spirit realm,
we are all connected.
I am connected to you,
and the fact that you are
watching this video now,
we are connected.
So you are never alone,
while you may feel alone
in the physical form
you are not alone.
I'm there with you.
We are on the same frequency.
And there are others
who are there with us.
So, that's one thing to know.
The second thing to know is that
if you are feeling alone
that's an opportunity for you
to strengthen
your muscles,
your...
self-reliance and self-sufficience.
So, I know it's very easy
when you alone to go:
'Oh, I don't like being alone!'
'But humans are social species,
we are meant to be
hanging out with others!'
Yes, that's true,
that's true, we are social species
and we are meant to be hanging out with others,
but I'm talking on the spiritual level.
If there is nobody around you
that you can connect with
on the spiritual level
you need to be able
to hold your frequency
and do the work on your own.
You need to be able to continue
growing and walking your path
on your own,
even if nobody around you
understands you,
supports you,
or that you even can talk to about this.
You must have the strength
in your soul and spirit,
and your spirit needs to be strong enough
to be able to pull you
through those lonely moments,
so that you don't give up on the path,
so that you don't get distracted.
We cannot afford
to have you
being distracted
from the path.
We cannot afford
having you being...
giving up
on the path.
We need you.
We need you to walk this path,
with strength,
determination
and faith.
Sometimes that's all we have.
And so, just once again,
I want to let you know:
if you are feeling lonely,
you never are.
It may seem like this
on the physical plane, on the 3d level,
but I am there with you.
If you are listening to my videos,
if you are following me,
that means: we are connected.
I am there with you always.
And so...
I hope this serves you.
Let me know if it does.
And if you have any comments or questions,
leave them in the comments below,
I love hearing from you.
And I'll see you in the next episode.
If you liked this video

part of my inner circle

I send out inspirational tips

I'd love to connect with you
and I'd love to help you

Men clothes like jacket. Something like this.
But it's not often.
Mostly, my lovely fans gave me.
At this moment, it's like donation.

Hurricane Preparedness Video - Duration: 2:17.
Hello, I'm John Kelly, Secretary of the United States
Department of Homeland Security.
As we enter hurricane season,
we at the Department of Homeland Security
and FEMA are working closely with our state, local,
and federal partners to increase preparedness
and coordinate response and recovery capabilities.
We're also empowering individuals to take an active role in
preparing themselves, their families,
and their communities.
It only takes one hurricane to change your life and your community.
Hurricanes are one of nature's most powerful
and destructive events.
They've caused eight of the 10 costliest disasters
in U.S. history.
Now is the time to prepare,
especially if you or a family member
live in an area prone
to hurricanes or inland flooding.
Here are three things you can do:
First, know your risk.
Find out today what types of impacts
could happen where you live.
Hurricanes are not just a coastal problem.
High winds, heavy rainfall, tornadoes,
and flooding can be felt hundreds of miles inland.
They can potentially cause loss of life
and catastrophic damage to property.
Two - prepare. Take action now.
When a storm is approaching, it's too late.
Make sure you have family evacuation
and communications plans.
Update your emergency supply kit,
and evaluate your flood insurance well
before a storm is on its way.
Three - stay informed. Know where to go for trusted sources of information
during a hurricane event.
To search for information about risks in your area,
visit www.ready.gov and search for your state.
To find hurricane forecasts, watches, and warnings,
check with NOAA's National Hurricane Center,
the Central Pacific Hurricane Center,
and www.weather.gov.
You can also download the FEMA app. The app includes disaster resources,
weather alerts, safety tips,
and push notifications to users' devices.
It is designed to help families better prepare for disasters.
I encourage you to visit each of these sites as soon as possible to make sure
you know what to do to protect your family
and property during hurricane season.
Thank you
