Pulse Audience Management (PAM)
What is Audience Targeting?
Audience targeting is a way to target certain audiences by requesting ads with specific audience parameters. A very typical case is age and gender, where age and gender are two different parameters of the same targeting. This enables you to send gender together with an age, making it possible to deliver a campaign to the desired audience. Audience targeting is available on global, campaign and goal level, just as with any other targeting. It can be combined with all other targeting rules.
Pulse Data Alliance
Data Integration
In order to use Pulse Audience Management functionality, you first need a data integration added to your account. Discuss this with your Account Manager. For more information, see Pulse Audience Management. When created, the providers can be enabled or disabled.
- Initiate the data integration project well before you run your first campaign: it can take anything from a few days to weeks from the point where you realise that you want to work with external data until you can run your first campaign, all depending on your data source. Make sure that you know at what date the data should be accessible in Pulse before you book your first campaign using it.
- Wait for the data to be transferred before you run campaigns: audience data needs to be transferred to Pulse before you can use it, so wait for a while (the time frame depends on the data source) before you start targeting campaigns to it. If you have any questions, contact your Account Manager.
When this functionality is enabled, you can use audience data in forecasting and reporting.

I don't like to deal in hyperbole. I'm not here to shock you or to trick you into reading or clicking a link. I won't support something if I don't believe in it.
Saturday, 8/30, is National Bacon Day. You need this recipe for Saturday. You must have it.
Guys, this recipe is Bacon Explosion. It's bacon inside a log of bacon. With sausage. And bbq sauce. Guys, you weave bacon in this recipe. Bacon is the vessel in which you ADD MORE BACON. It's quite possibly the most amazing thing you'll ever put in your mouth.
Would you like a simple ingredient list? Sure you do. How's this for simple?
2 packs of thick cut bacon. One chub of sausage. One bottle of barbecue sauce. And if you're really serious, one more pack of bacon. Boom.
Start with the bacon. Duh. Take at least 6 pieces and cook them however you wish. Put them in the oven, fry them on the stove, even microwave them if that's your thing. You can't have too many cooked pieces of bacon here, but you can have too little.
While your bacon is cooking, it's time to get your weave on.
Stop. You need the proper mood music for this. There is only one acceptable song for this meaty endeavor you are about to embark on. Michael Jackson's Human Nature. Oh yeah baby.
Right. Lay out a sheet of foil and spray it with cooking spray. Take your bacon and lay nine strips out side by side on the foil. Yes, nine is the magic number.
Thanks Sue for making me Bacon Explosion!!!
Once you lay out your strips OMG it's time to weave the bacon!!!
You have no idea how magical this weaving of the bacon is.
Why, why… tell 'em that is human nature…
Why, why… does he do me that way?
Excuse me for a second, I need a moment…
Ok I'm good!
Remember that sweet little chub of sausage you got? It is time for that boy to become a man and fulfill his destiny! Spread the sausage over the top half of the bacon lattice. (yes, Bacon. Lattice.)
Remember those 6+ pieces of bacon you went ahead and cooked? Chop and slice and dice those guys into littles pieces. And then, sprinkle those beautiful bites of bliss on top of the sausage that is already on top of the bacon.
I know you've hit replay on Mr. Jackson's song. I know things are getting hot and steamy right now. I know you're hot and bothered. Are you ready for this next part?
Apply bbq sauce.
So how to we go from a magnificent pile of deliciousness to our explosion log? We get our roll on!
There she is. Bask in the glory. Have a drink, you've earned it.
Roll that baby up in the foil tight and pop it in the oven at 350F for about 90 minutes. It tastes better if you cook it on the grill. It tastes even better if you cook it on a Big Green Egg. You're looking for an internal temperature of 160F. And you need to moonwalk over to the bacon halfway through cooking to flip it over.
Fast forward an hour and a half….
I mean holy geebus I wish you could smell through your screen right now. This smells like all the bacon. All of it. Ever.
Want to see what it looks like on the inside?
Come closer. You're gonna want to see this.
OMG look at it! Look at it!!! That's the rolled up woven basket of bacon around sausage sprinkled with bacon. Oh and barbecue sauce oozing out.
Oh lord.
I mean, what could be better?
More sauce!!! OMFG!!!! joasdfhiqj10 02u0a 2pjaodfjas asf 2uj o Q@(hro2j0 asojdfjoa u82jaoa0 japjf02j !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111
I have no more words. This will blow your mind. This will blow your tastebuds. This will blow your soul. This will blow everything.
Nom nom nom.
There you have it. Bacon explosion. The official meal/snack/sex toy/drug of CrossFit 865. Share this, pin it, spread the love. Everyone will love you for it.
You're welcome. Send thanks to my L1 funding project. =)

For almost 3 years, Major League Baseball has been "studying" whether or not the A's can move to San Jose. Commissioner Bud Selig has done nothing to move the issue to a resolution, despite the fact that he is the fraternity brother of A's Managing General Partner, Lew Wolff. Despite comments from Selig that "the issue is on the front burner," there is no guarantee that the fate of the A's will be on the agenda at the opcoming Owners Meeting later this month. If past behavior is the best indicator of future behavior, it won't be discussed or acted on.
Fast forward to yesterday: Don Knauss, the CEO of Clorox held a gathering of business leaders to send a message to Major League Baseball, they they want the A's to stay in Oakland and are willing to commit significant corporate dollars to make sure that happens. In addition to those from Clorox, executives of a dozen Oakland-based companies were in attendance, including Kaiser Permanente, Safeway, Pandora Internet Radio, Cost Plus World Market and Signature Development. Mayor Jean Quan and other Oakland city officials were also on hand for this "public display of affection," as Knauss called it.
Mayor Quan said that she had had breakfast recently with one of the Giant's main owners who was adamant (his word) that the Giants will not give up their territorial rights to San Jose. Sounds like a stalemate to me.
Knauss also said that if the current owners of the A's cant commit to Oakland or don't want to, a group of investors,(presumably including some in attendance at yesterday's love fest) would be willing to buy the A's to keep the team here. He declined to talk about how much such investors would be willing to pay, but some had pledged a total of $1 million to keep the A's in Oakland in 2009 when Bud Selig first appointed the 3-man committe to evaluate the A's Bay Area choices.
Lew Wolff has repeatedly said that the A's are not for sale, that the current ownership plans to remain in place for "at least another generation." He was recently asked what the A's planned to do if MLB denies the move to San Jose. He responded, "We are not sellers." He also has said that, "We have no plan B, but it can't be in Oakland."
The latest Forbes estimate of baseball franchise values has the A's in last place with a value of $321 million, well below the average of $523 million. That is an estimate of what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller, and we apparently do not have the latter.
So we all wait with baited breath to see if the A's future is decided at the opcoming owners meeting, or not. I am keeping my fingers crossed. MLB's indecision is costing the A's money (they can't or won't invest significant money in the team or stadium until they know where they will be allowed to play), and it is costing them fans, as they have done about everything they can to alienate the faithful short of going out of business. We have very loyal fans, but their loyalty is fading with every day that MLB declines to give the A's an answer.

"No Deletion" Policy
Posts are editable only for 2 hours from the time of posting. After that, this "No-Deletion" policy comes into effect and the post becomes a permanent repository in the site for the benefit of future visitors.
We have this "No-Deletion" policy and built the system around it because of the following reasons.
1) A vast majority of the site visitors are passive readers. The Original poster is only one of the beneficiaries of the discussion. There are innumerable others who find the same discussion to be incredibly useful to their personal situation. Deleting posts substantially reduces the value of the community to other members and hence it is an absolutely central policy for us to not delete any post after the 1-hour period.
2) When IL'ites responds to a post, they take time and effort to provide that opinion/suggestion/help. We want their participation to be helpful to as many IL'ites as possible. Deleting your posts makes other IL'ites posts loose context and in most cases becomes meaningless. It is not fair to make other IL'ites contributions meaningless.
3) Some members claim that editing or deleting their post doesn't make other members contribution meaningless. Going through the requested edit and making a decision on a case by case basis is very very hard. We just don't know where to draw the line on which posts are okay to delete and which posts aren't. Which posts will create holes in the site and which posts won't. Which ones will reduce value to the community and which ones won't. Which edits changes context and which ones don't. Deciphering all that and justifying to members as to why we deleted one and not the other is impossible to manage. That is why we have to lay this black and white rule and be fair and consistent to everyone.
4) Another important reason is that Indusladies.com is a very small team. And with the very very limited time we have, we are trying to build a friendly and helpful community for Indian Women. We do not have the team strength to support post edits/deletions.
5) In the very rarest of cases where a member has posted personally identifiable information AND the person's life will be upset in a very significant way, we offer this as a last resort option. We can edit one-post removing a maximum of 200 words. We have to do this in a way without the subsequent posts losing context. If you think your situation is that dire, then please email support with the link to the one post that you wanted deleted and the words that you want deleted. We will take care of that.
Email requests to support mailbox to delete username and/or all posts will be politely declined. We would only gently redirect you to read this policy. There are certain policies we need to have and enforce in order for the greater benefit of the community. We look forward to your kind co-operation.

Side Effects of NPH Insulin
Low blood sugar and allergic reactions are potentially serious side effects of NPH insulin that should be reported to a healthcare provider immediately. Some of the warnings signs of low blood sugar include blurry vision, cold sweats, and extreme hunger. Other potential NPH insulin side effects include skin thickening or pitting at the injection site, skin reaction at the injection site, and high blood sugar.
As with any medicine, side effects are possible with NPH insulin (Humulin® N, Novolin® N). However, not everyone who takes the drug will experience side effects.

However, very serious side effects can occur, especially if you take too much NPH insulin.
(This article covers many, but not all, of the possible side effects with NPH insulin. Your healthcare provider can discuss a more complete list of NPH insulin side effects with you.)
Some side effects with NPH insulin are potentially serious and should be reported immediately to your healthcare provider. Some of the warning signs of these serious side effects include:
- Signs of an allergic reaction, such as:
- Itching
- An unexplained rash
- Hives
- Swelling of the mouth or throat
- Wheezing or other difficulty breathing
- Symptoms of low blood sugar, such as:
- Cold sweats
- Shakiness
- Difficulty speaking
- Sweating

This garden had a large, sloping, unused lawn, and the deck from the house was too small. We redesigned this garden by creating a central planter that could accommodate all of the grade changes and connect the spaces. A large deck was designed for access right out of the house at the same level as the interior flooring. The fountain is a central connecting point, leading through the garden to the fire pit area that can be curtained off from the wind. Steps accessing a small patio were designed to make the entertaining space larger. The central planter contains a large magnolia for shade and veggies, easily accessed from the kitchen. This garden has been in the SF Chronicle in an article by Julie Chai and in Sunset Magazine June 2018.

Refrigerator Seals
Question: How do I remove my refrigerator door seals on my 2006 Keystone Springdale trailer?
Answer: You should contact the manufacturer of the refrigerator to get their instruction on how to remove and replace refrigerator door seals. They may also offer suggestions to resolve whatever problem you are having with the fridge.
For instance, we were able to refresh our refrigerator seals by inserting cotton balls all around the seals and using a hair dryer to soften the seals. This was a procedure we obtained directly from the fridge manufacturer and we do not recommend it for other refrigerators – we suggest that you talk to the manufacturer about your specific model. In any case, this was really only a temporary fix and our seals will soon need to be replaced – it just bought us a little more time.
When you contact the manufacturer, be sure to have the specific model number of your refrigerator to obtain the relevant information. It should be on the refrigerator somewhere (door, door frame, etc.), and/or with any documentation you may have about the refrigerator.

This is something I've been seeing a lot lately, pretty pashmina shawls being used as statement pieces. Not just any old shawls either, I've seen a whole range of embellished, embroidered and velvet ones which I love - perfect for the winter weather too!
If you haven't seen these, here are just a few examples I've seen below - I've even seen gorgeous velvet heavy shawls incorporated into wedding outfits which look amazing. I also really like the fact that some of these shawls are styled with belts for a fitted look, which look really chic - with dresses, short kameezes and even jumpsuits.
I'm really liking a lot of the trends out there at the moment which include contrasting, or making shawls pop out with bright colours against a neutral surface, which can really pull a simple outfit together.
I'm lucky enough to have quiet a few outfit which come with beautiful shawls and dupattas, which are statement pieces on their own. I always have loved the idea of a colourful dupatta with a plain kameez suit (something my sisters and I used to do a lot when we were younger! Net dupattas, anyone...?) so I love that this is back in again. I also find these quite modest - great for a draping on your shoulders or arms if you want a looser look.
I've been looking for a a reason to pull out a few of my pashminas for a while and have been playing around with a few that I already have - luckily a lot of my winter suits have beauttiful thick shawls for me to use. This is an older outfit I have from Pakistani label Charizma, that I got the chance to make use of recently. I really like this brand because it's pretty reasonably priced, and really comfortable. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get this directly through the website (but looking at the decent prices on their website, I'm tempted to order now!) but I did order this through Brandcentral.pk who are quite reliable.
This is me wearing the outfit, I wanted to use a belt for this but thought it wouldn't go with the embroidered kameez. No heels this time, just flats and a plain hijab!
I really loved the colourful design of this outfit - I'm not sure what I like more, the outfit or the pashmina! I'm definitely going to use the shawl for a more plainer outfit though (jumpsuit, plain abayah, any ideas?) to see how it looks - I can also imagine a light simple white kameez for summer with statement shawls.
What do you think of this trend - would you wear this? There are quite a few vendors out there with these trend and it's pretty easy to put together from your own wardrobe!

Grandparent Gifts: Personalized Photo Gifts St. Patrick"s Day is actually simply around the corner and you are therefore probably refining their plans big party already. Giving your party guests promotional gifts is a very good idea. Not just are you going for you to become pleasantly surprised, but also they will be able to use your gifts later.
Parkinson"s disease is one of the most common movement disorders that Li Yongjie and his colleagues at the Beijing Institute of Functional Neurosurgery have been fighting over the past 20 years.
China has more than 2 million patients with Parkinson"s, accounting for about 40 percent of the global total. With the country"s population aging rapidly, the number is rising.
The condition was first described in 1817 by British physician James Parkinson as "shaking palsy". Medical scientists now know the disease is caused by the degeneration of neurons in a region of the brain that controls movement.
However, the cause of the degeneration remains unclear, although it is believed to involve both genetic and environmental factors.
Li welcomes the growing acceptance of surgery as an effective treatment. When he conducted the first microelectrode-guided stereotactic surgery in China two decades ago, it was very hard to persuade patients of the benefits of such an operation.
"They were afraid they would hemorrhage. Even many physicians opposed the surgery," he recalled.
As China becomes more aware of the illness, treatment is developing. Deep brain stimulation - which affects the abnormal cells through tiny electrodes implanted in the brain - has replaced stereotactic surgery as the main therapeutic treatment for Parkinson"s disease.
The first Chinese-made "brain pacemaker" was implanted in a patient"s brain in November 2009. Chinese-made devices have since been introduced to other countries, including Pakistan, Bangladesh and Indonesia, where they are bringing hope to patients.
In recent years, researchers at Tsinghua University have developed a second generation brain pacemaker that is rechargeable and has a longer life.
Though early treatment can help control the symptoms effectively, Li noted that the disease can go into remission, but cannot be cured with current medical treatments.
"I often tell my patients that the brain ages like the skin. As you grow older, your skin wrinkles and become mottled with dark spots. So does the brain, and no one can really stop the aging process," he said.
He warned that males and younger people need to be more careful about the disease.
In the past two decades, his institute has performed more than 5,000 operations on Parkinson"s patients; the records indicate that men are 1.46 times more likely to contract the disease than women, and more than half of the patients were age 53 or younger.

Teacher With AIDS Removed From Class
Long Beach, Calif--"I wonder about the message this gives to the students," Vincent Chalk said last week. "If we tell them you can't get aids through casual contact, then they must be wondering why am I not being allowed to teach."
The California special-education teacher had just been consigned to an office job, following a federal judge's refusal to grant the preliminary injunction he had sought to keep school officials from transferring him out of the classroom.
U.S. District Judge William Gray said that too little was known about acquired immune deficiency syndrome to allow the Orange County educator to return to his class of hearing-impaired students. Mr. Chalk was transferred this month to a job writing grant proposals.
"When all was said and done, they4just didn't want me around the kids," said Mr. Chalk, whose illness was diagnosed in February. He has not returned to class since then.
Mr. Chalk's case has been closely watched by experts because it is one of the first school-related aids legal actions to involve a teacher. It is also among the first in which a court has ruled in favor of barring the victim from work or school.
Expected to Win
In his Sept. 8 ruling, Judge Gray conceded that Mr. Chalk, like the aids-carrying students who have gone to court before him, will probably win his fight to continue teaching. The teacher is protected, he said, by the federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which bars discrimination against the handicapped.
The U.S. Supreme Court cited the law in its decision last March allowing a Florida teacher with tubercu8losis to return to the classroom.
But Judge Gray said he was denying the preliminary injunction because the job change would not cause Mr. Chalk "irreparable harm."
The ruling may effectively exclude Mr. Chalk from teaching until at least January, when his trial is scheduled to take place, said Marjorie Rushforth, one of the teacher's lawyers. The local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union has also agreed to join the case.
To speed up the legal process, lawyers for Mr. Chalk last week said they planned to ask the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco to issue a writ of mandamus or an expedited appeal in the case. The former is a request for the court to order Judge Gray to make a decision. The latter asks the court to take up Mr. Chalk's request immediately as an appeal, according to Ms. Rushforth.
"Hopefully, once it's resolved, othchers won't have to have the fear of having to go through something like this," Mr. Chalk said during a seminar on aids here.
Both he and Orange County school officials turned to the courts this summer after they were unable to reach agreement on whether he should be allowed to return to his class this month.
School officials said they were being "cautious" in asking a local trial court to make a declaratory judgement in the dispute. A ruling, they said, would also help relieve them of potential liability.
"If someone [in the school] were to come down with aids, they would immediately consider some kind of court action against us," Robert Peterson, county superintendent of schools, said in a previous interview.
Cases Elsewhere
Nationwide, a handful of school districts faced--and apparently settled--similar aids-related employee disputes this month. In Dallas, school officials followed the advice of a medical advisory group and allowed an unnamed employee to go back to work in that city's schools. In an effort to protect the employee's privacy, the officials refused to say whether or not he was a teacher.
Jackson, Miss., school officials asked a teacher suspected of having aids to undergo testing for the disease. Though he would not say what the outcome of the tests was, Robert N. Fortenberry, Jackson's superintendent of schools, said the teacher had agreed to be transferred to a nonteaching job this month.

Thruxton 1200 Babieca's story
At the beginning of 2016, Javi Valls, a close friend related to Tamarit Motorcycles, had the idea in mind of buying us a motorcycle, but he wasn't fully convinced. Every time we started the conversation about which changes wanted to carry out on his Triumph motorcycle, we never managed to get something in clear.
Sometimes we phoned him to tell him about the new parts on stock, but he was still hesitating. After a couple months with no contact, we reached him again because we had the motorcycle that he was looking for, nevertheless his answer was: "I know the motorcycle I want, I tried the new Thruxton 1200 during my trip to Hong Kong and I have fallen in love with her, so when I come back, I will go directly to the dealer to see it and try it again".
Couple of days after, Javi turned up at our Shop with his pristine white steed. A truly beautiful motorcycle, obviously can't outperform the Thruxton 1200R, but aesthetically provides a more classic look. It's a matter of taste, that's why both motorcycle models are sold.
Same day Javi show us his motorcycle, we were working on the Triumph "Yunque" makeover, which led the client to start with the makeover of his Thruxton 1200.

Sunsense Prevents Sun Damage
Skin care product Sunsense Anti-Ageing Face Moisturiser (Douglas Pharmaceuticals) was promoted in newspapers throughout New Zealand in 2006 in a print advertisement that responded to the rays of the sun. The moisturiser sold out within a week. The campaign won an Axis award in June 2007. "To see what happens if you don't protect your skin every day, hold this page up to the sun."
When readers held the newspaper page up to the sun they would have seen wrinkles appear, along with the Sunsense bottle and extra copy, shining through from the other side of the page. "Protect your skin with a new combination of anti aging ingredients and SPF30+ to prevent premature wrinkles. Fragrance-free Sunsense anti-aging face moisturizer is only available at pharmacies."
The Sunsense advertisement was developed at Special Group by creative director/art director Tony Bradbourne, copywriter Steve McCabe, account director Lexie Ribot and photographer Derek Henderson. Retouching was done at The Lounge.

Nope, not a typo, that's how you spell ALfheim, the name of the second virtual world encountered in this series. Chris Burden is a married 57 year old member of the art elite who lives in the lap of luxury in California – I've in fact observed his property as a buddy of mine in California as soon as lived mere blocks from Burden. The Monday newsletter will embrace advocacy as its raison d'être, with a lead story each week and a round up of advocacy-connected stories and news. Then, as an art critic, I have been going to and writing about Art League shows for a lot of years. Hopefully the authorities are maintaining an eye on the painting so the Blakes can't squirrel it away in a cave or sell it privately, but it really is odd that there's NO news whatsoever on the net about the case.
Some days I wrote two or three poems because I was inspired by some thing in the newspaper. In any case, what this tells me is that I ought to undoubtedly make an work to see more of the world's great art collections! I know from experience that a letter like this (not art connected) in Australia price me $100 but it worked and I got my funds back and then some! As a certified PMC artist, handcrafted jewelry designer and Senior Editor and Technical Editor of Metal Clay Artist Magazine (now Cre8tiveFire online), I have accomplished a great deal of private experimentation and research on metal clay.
Click right here for more information on the videos and artists that Rody has been showcasing at art fairs all over the world. In the early 1950's his collaboration on a series of spaceflight articles in Collier magazine was considered an critical influence on the evolution of the American space plan. Soon we can all go to the grand opening of Heineman Myers Modern Art , a brand new art gallery opening next month in Bethesda. In cooler months when I have a massive pot of water bubbling on best of my wood-burning stove, I add some hot water to make the mix warm.
Whether produced from magazine pages or newsprint, these basic flowers would be acute addition to a gift or card. The artist felt compelled to pay tribute to this apostle (see image on prime) – often referred to as the very first friend of Jesus – with prayers and wonderful compassion for a dear buddy, Andrew – a devout Catholic from Ireland – who has been fighting throat cancer. Find much better things to do with your art time than sitting in a class becoming manipulated by an AARP member-eligible art dinosaur and subjecting oneself to the danger of getting shot by an ADD dumb-ass art student sycophant.
It is been far as well lengthy since we shared a choice of East London street art stickers on the blog. Like Grandma Moses, who took well-liked subjects and elements for her paintings, make art that is your own with your unique style developed with your sense of expression. In the past I've asked readers to email me your testimonials of visual art shows that you'd like to see published right here. 1st, program the how the finished project ought to appear with your group employing scratch paper to sketch the layout of your newspaper.

If one does not have enough exercise, its lack of proper relaxing and contracting function may bring about symptoms of pharyngemphraxis, and further proceed into pharyngeal cancer. In addition to transport food from up downward, there are different functions in various parts. Bile is conveyed through bile duct in liver, pancreatin from pancreas and digestive enzymes mix with foodstuff to help digestion and absorption. If there is lack of movement in the digestive tract and slow peristalsis, then the whole digestive process could not be completed.
The insufficient movement as well as the lack of bile and pancreatic secretion make the whole digestion process incomplete. Too much gastric acid 'will induce belch, eructation, or even possibly gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer .These may be further worsened and transformed into gastric cancer. Stomach and intestine are controlled by vegetative nerves. The excess excitation of vagus nerve will secrete too much gastric acid, which, in addition to taking part in the digestion of food study, would even dissolve the gastric wall itself and result "digestive ulcer". Therefore in the treatment of gastric ulcer, some surgeons sever the vagus nerve for the purpose to reduce the gastric acid secretion, and at the same time to remove the part that controls its recurrence.
The severing of vagus nerve reduces the stimulus to secrete gastric acid and prevent the relapse of gastric ulcer. On the other hand, the excitation of vagus nerve will reduce the peristaltic movement of gastrointestinal tract. The indigestion resulted will in turn induce peptic ulcer and cancer. Therefore. how to maintain and recover the normal movement of gastric digestive tract and the secretion of its accessory glands is the basis related to the prevention and treatment of digestive tract disorders.
Another problem commonly seen in the digestive tract is constipation. Fecal material is accumulating when the peristalsis is impaired. As a result of chemical change, toxin is produced. If the peristalsis is normal, the fecal material is defecated long before toxin is produced. The toxin produced by people suffering chronic constipation is absorbed into circulation and cause severe damage to the body. Hence, one with a good bowel movement is an important link to keep good health.
For the modern life style, people stay indoor for a long time, the oxygen content is comparatively low, and the respiratory function of skin is weakening. People depend a lot on driving a car instead of walking. Basically there is no exercise or movement indoors. With regard to food, the high protein and fat constituents in food produce a lot of acidic products, thus make the digestive tract vulnerable to have disorders.
For those who had already had digestive dysfunction gastrointestinal disorder, they usually have less exercise. On the other hand, those who have less exercises are usually susceptible to digestive dysfunction and impairment. The only way to interrupt this viscous cycle is to do aerobic exercise. As the group of people could not tolerate exercise and vigorous oxygen consumption exercise, periodically to make aerobic exercise is very. helpful. First of all, it adjusts the balance of vegetative nerves, it can transform the excited constitution of vagus nerve through stimulating the sympathetic nerve to balance the vagus nerve, eventually attain a mutual balance between them. Passive aerobic exercise does not consume oxygen a lot, and very few acid products are produced, thus eliminating or reducing the presence of ulcer inducing or carcinogenic substances. Once you have a healthy digestive activity and strong functions, constipation is naturally resolved. Based on our experience of treatment, to make aerobic exercise is a very good method to recover normal digestive function, to treat and prevent digestive ulcers and tumor, as well as is the most physiological and fastest route to treat constipation.
Those who expect themselves to have a healthy digestive function should learn and insist to make aerobic exercise. It is especially appropriate for those who cannot do regular gymnastic exercise.

When the brick and mortar can hold no more…
"Women have sat indoors all these millions of years, so that by this time the very walls are permeated by their creative force, which has, indeed, so overcharged the capacity of bricks and mortar that it must needs to harness itself to pens and brushes and business and politics." ~ Virginia Wolf
In my childhood home hangs an oil painting of a silhouetted woman in black, white and grey hues. The paint is thick, and furrowed, the strokes wild. The woman sits on her heels, her feline curves of breasts and hips accentuated by her pose. She is naked. At first glance she comes across demure. Then you notice her arms above her head, as if she's posing for the sun, secretly taking in the light, enjoying herself.
My mother painted her.
To my younger self it was a strange painting. Who was this dark woman? What was her story? Why did my mother paint her, like that?
I grew up with fire in my belly. Very early on it was clear to me that I lived in a suppressed environment, and my quest for freedom took root. Then I didn't know about my mother's, my grandmothers' sacrifices, but I felt their potent silences and sensed the secrets they held so tightly within their bodies, as if they feared they'd implode if they let go.
The men around us were loud, strong, opinionated, crushing our female wildness with their mocking and ridicule and self-proclaimed superiority. Painting, studying, praying, all done in private, stolen moments. Feminine wisdom shared in steaming, sizzling small kitchens. At about 5 years old, I got lost inside my mother's closet, trying on her clothes and felt oh so womanly. In my tattered underwear, I staggered into the living room in her heels and pearls to show off my newfound self. My dad laughed at me. He said I suffered from decorations disease. Then, I didn't know the disease was all his.
The painted woman knew.
Much later in life, I picked up a camera and began making images myself. At first, I got an analog 35 mm camera as a reaction to our rapidly digitized world; I wanted to return to the basics of taking photos, I wanted to learn about the light.
At the same time, I was creating a boudoir bedroom complete with candelabra and a heaven bed as if to bring more passion into my life. In the spur of the moment, I got a friend to photograph me as a gift for my husband's birthday, wanting to show him the woman he fell in love with. In turn I photographed my friend and we had so much fun playing dress up in my boudoir, pouting and posing just so, forgetting our weary selves as our sensual selves came alive again. We agreed, this was a liberating experience every woman should give herself.
This led me to photograph women. Inspired by the 18th century Frenchboudoirs and Virginia Wolf's Room of One's Own, I called the studio Lolo's Boudoir. At first an innocent and fun project, I soon understood the potency of this work: when a camera points at a women, let alone a naked women, everything shows up in the room: her insecurities, self-loathing, her stories of abuse, betrayal, loneliness, and all the ways she's supplanted her power and self-respect.
Can I be beautiful? Women asked me. What if I don't like what I see in the photos?
Many women, myself included, sat in the Victorian love seat, and cried our hearts out, as if to cleanse ourselves, before we could face our bodies, our selves, and show up for the view finder.
More and more Lolo's Boudoir grew to be a sacred space for women, a safe place far away from the prying eyes of men and media and the beauty industries banking upon our insecurities. A place beyond our petty comparison games, where we could expose all the nuances of being a woman. Soft, sweet, and feminine. Coquette and playful. Elegant and sassy. Romantic and raunchy. Raw and naked. Lonely and longing. Assertive and powerful. Seductive and sexual. Mythical and mysterious.
Judgement was suspended in this intimate space of play. Not only did I have to fall in love with each woman to see her intricate beauty, I also had to take on her demons and despairs regarding her womanly self, so that she, for a moment, could feel her freedom to be and express herself.
One woman had dragged two suitcases filled with corset and bras and heel across the country, determined to own her sexuality. As we played around and tried different outfits, she suddenly said to me, "I think I'm done with these outfits. I feel more me, more powerful, when I'm naked." Inside I rejoiced. She got it. We don't need the props and the retouches.
Even so, the bricks and the mortar could not hold the pressure of the hundreds of women stories of betrayal, abuse, and self-hate that were building inside my studio and my being.
One night I sat in my bathtub, sopping uncontrollably. Burnt out, I felt like I'd been submerged in the shadowlands of our culture that steals our sexuality, our female bodies and souls.
What is wrong with us, with our society, that we can't be who we are at essence?
I questioned everything, even my trade, and the possibility that I was in fact buying into this culture with my photos. My divine fury spilled onto the pages of my memoir and into an online program to support women in reclaiming their soul, sexuality and sovereignty.
There was no doubt: It is time for me, all of us, to move beyond the safe walls of the boudoir and show the world who we really are.
It is time to connect with the desire, the real possibility, that we can indeed take our sacred lives and bodies into our own hands and treat it with reverence and respect.
If not now, when?
From afar, I hear the barely audible prayers of all women (and some men), dead and alive, to step beyond the threshold of our silences, to stop the internalized patriarchal tyrant so fearful of our free song.
In the face of this calling, I wobble. Every. Day.
The painted woman is smiling.
She has known me along.

That's after a $50 rebate and with a two-year contract. T-Mobile's also going to offer the Samsung Exhibit II 4G contract-free for $199.99. Wal-Mart's getting first crack at the phone starting Oct. 27. It will be available in other stores starting Nov. 2. The Exhibit II 4G has a 1 gigahertz Snapdragon processor and a 3.7-inch touchscreen. Costs were cut on the camera – it uses a 3 megapixel sensor. There's also a front-facing camera for video chat and a spiffy "marine blue" case. It's also not getting the fastest wireless radio. It's billed as a "4G" device because it will connect to T-Mobile's HSPA+ network, which is capable of download speeds up to 42 megabits per second. But the Exhibit II will have maximum download speeds of 14.4 Mbps. Comments | Topics: 4G, Phones, T-Mobile

Remove SecureSearch.co virus (Free Instructions)
Why should you remove SecureSearch.co virus from your computer?
You should remove SecureSearch.co virus because it is a potentially dangerous program, which can cause some computer security-related problems for you. If you are reading this article, we assume that you have noticed some suspicious changes on the web browser you use. This program is designed to hijack web browsers and change homepage and new tab page settings in them to promote SecureSearch.co search engine. Therefore, after this hijacker affects the browser, this search engine appears each time you open your web browser or new tab in it. At first, it might seem that there is nothing wrong with this search engine since it resembles any other search engine. In the "About" page, it presents itself as an advantageous search engine that does not track user's browsing activity, such as search queries: "Using our proprietary SafeSearch privacy technology, we are able to protect your searches from being recorded and stored." Such statements are quite strange since we have found quite contrary statements in SecureSearch's Privacy Policy: "We collect information from you when you enter information on our site for the purposes of improving our service." In other words, this dubious search engine DOES track your searches when you use it.
Despite questionable statements about "private" search this browser hijacker provides, this PUP has other disadvantages that we would like to reveal. No matter whether you want to browse without being tracked or not, you should not do it via this search engine because it can open web pages you did not intend to visit instead of those that you wanted to open. It happens because SecureSearch.co PUP redirects users to its partners' websites when they try to click on search results, and this statement from its Privacy Policy confirms that: "Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our website." If you do not want to visit suspicious and possibly dangerous web pages, stay away from this search engine. You probably have understood that already, but it is intended to reroute users to predetermined websites in order to promote them. Some of these websites might be safe to visit, but in the worst scenario, you can end up on a malicious website and accidentally download infectious files to your computer. To prevent such situation, remove SecureSearch.co from your computer using anti-spyware software (for example, Reimage Reimage Cleaner ) and use a better search engine instead, for instance, Google.
How to prevent SecureSearch.co hijack?
Questions about SecureSearch.co virus
Distributors of PUPs use devious techniques to impel users to install them. One of the most efficient methods used by distributors of PUPs is software bundling. Because of this technique, SecureSearch.co redirect virus can reach victim's computer packaged with other free programs. To avoid installing the whole software pack while thinking that it is an individual program, you have to monitor its installation process carefully. Make sure you opt for Custom or Advanced settings instead of Standard or Default mode. Then opt out all additional components by removing the tick from the checkboxes next to suggestions to install them. If you did not know how to install programs properly and you were opting for Standard or Default installation mode all your life, you should check if you haven't installed more severe programs on your computer.
For further information, please navigate to page 2. You can also find SecureSearch.co removal guide there.
SecureSearch.co removal guide

About the Poem
Taken from the book
About the poet
Neil Rollinson's poetry has been noted for its eroticism, and certainly the earlier collections...
My Wives
I descend on Holborn's escalator
watching my wives pass by on the opposite side,
smiling, waving at me; they shout in Swedish,
Russian, Urdu, that they'll always love me.
Even my English wives croon in their dialects.
My Japanese wives bow low, their kimonos
showering the stairs with the smell of Hokkaido
and Kanto. My wives are everywhere;
pacing the corridors, rushing to Kilburn,
Gatwick, Paddington, smiling at me as they go.
They have new husbands now, waiting at home,
but I know it's me they miss. As we tunnel the grim
postcodes of Lambeth, Borough,
the Elephant and Castle, most of my wives have
left to catch connections for Kent or Sussex.
There are just the two of us now,
husband and wife for a couple of stops.
We sit in our seats, rocking in unison.
She twists her wedding-ring, then starts
to weep. What can I do but join her?
We sob through Waterloo and Kennington,
all the way to Stockwell where she picks up
her bag, and slips through the doors.
I can picture her room in the Walworth Road,
her Joss sticks smouldering, that smell
of patchouli she's left in the empty carriage.
I go home alone, lie in an empty bed
while all my wives are sleeping with men
who do not love them.

Front Squat PR
I hit a new PR for my front squat. My 3 rep max so far is 225lbs. I have not attempted a heavier weight. It sounds weird but "the weight felt good". My grip was struggling toward the last rep but I managed to stabilize it. I had a lot of encouragement and cheering from my class. Another member even gave me some tips which will definitely help in the future.
I love using my Fastlifts now. I fee really stable in the bottom position which gives me a lot of confidence in my lifts. I even did a metcon in them. I will probably do a write up on them eventually. I need to log more hours in the box with them. Thanks for reading, happy lifting.

Crochet Patchwork Blanket - Crochet Granny Square
A crochet blanket with 100% cotton fabric squares in a gentle shade of sage green.
The idea for the crochet patchwork blankets came from the old-fashioned airtex blankets. Do you remember those? I wanted to make a blanket that was lighter than a fully knitted blanket, something ideal for the summer or inside with central heating. I wanted to make something pretty with a feeling of yesteryear, something really homemade that looks like its been loving made for you by your Granny. So I experimented with crocheting pieces of fabric together and the result is this lovely light blanket. We use a really fine crochet hook to make these so that we can poke it directly through the fabric to make the stitches. The fabric in these blankets is 100% cotton and each batch of patchwork varies so there's a lovely unique quality to this special blanket.

The billionaire and former KGB agent Alexander Lebedev is to buy London's Evening Standard tomorrow, in a dramatic move that would see him become the first Russian oligarch to own a major British newspaper, MediaGuardian.co.uk can reveal.
Lebedev is poised to buy a controlling stake in the ailing title, following a year of secret negotiations with Lord Rothermere, its owner and the chairman of the Daily Mail & General Trust.
Under the terms of the deal Lebedev will purchase 76% of the newspaper, with the Associated Newspapers group retaining 24%. His son Evgeny, who lives in London, is due to sign the deal with Daily Mail & General Trust tomorrow. The agreement will make Lebedev the paper's controversial new proprietor.
A source close to DMGT admitted: "The deal is still very much alive." DMGT failed to comment.
The purchase will be an astonishing moment in British press history – the first time a former member of a foreign intelligence service has owned a British title. Speaking to MediaGuardian.co.uk on Wednesday, Lebedev said he had read the Evening Standard and other British newspapers when he was a young spy at the Soviet embassy in London in the late 1980s.
"I had to read every newspaper. I was there for that," he recalled. "I had to read the FT, the Guardian, Standard and the Daily Mail." The Standard was "a very good newspaper" with some "brilliant journalists," Lebedev said, adding that the Daily Mail was a "highly influential" title that closely reflected British public attitudes.
The Standard's sale to an ex-Russian spy is likely to have been discussed at the highest levels of government. It follows three years of fraught relations between London and Moscow following the November 2006 murder in London of Russian dissident Alexander Litvinenko – and the Kremlin's refusal to extradite Andrei Lugovoi, his alleged killer.
In Russia, however, Lebedev is known as a semi-opposition figure who has frequently been at odds with Vladimir Putin, Russia's former president and current prime minister. In 2003 he ran unsuccessfully against Moscow's pro-Kremlin mayor Yuri Luzhkov. Lebedev is also part owner of the critical Novaya Gazeta paper, one of the last sources of media opposition inside Russia to the government.
Last night Lebedev said he had no intention of interfering in British politics if he became the Standard's new owner. "My influence would be next to zero," he declared. He promised an "absolutely" hands-off approach, and said it would be up to the Standard's editor-in-chief and journalists to agree the paper's editorial line.
But it is understood that the Standard's editorial direction would inevitably change. The paper would be less under the influence of its sister paper, the Daily Mail, sources suggest, and would not necessarily reflect the Mail's rightwing editorial line. It would probably continue, however, to support Boris Johnson, London's Conservative mayor, they add.
The Daily Mail group is likely to fund the cost of redundancies for some Standard journalists, it is understood. The Russian tycoon also wants to establish a new editorial and advisory board for the Standard. This could include heavyweight global figures such as Mikhail Gorbachev – the former Soviet president and Lebedev's personal friend – as well as Tony Blair, former French president Jacques Chirac and leading Russian editors.
It was last night not clear how much Lebedev is paying for the Standard. Before the credit crunch, Forbes listed him 39th among Russia's top 100 billionaires, with a $3.1bn fortune. He puts his own wealth now at $2.5 billion. His portfolio includes one of Russia's largest private banks, a 30% stake in Aeroflot, Russia's state airline, and other interests including a London restaurant and a luxury Italian hotel.
On Wednesday Lebedev, who holds an annual fundraising event in London to support a charity for children with cancer, said he accepted it would be difficult to revive the Standard's flattening circulation. But he said he was keen to own the newspaper since – as a figure working outside the Kremlin – he has exhausted the publishing possibilities in his native Russia.
"As far as I'm concerned this [buying the Standard] has nothing to do with making money. There are lots of other ways. This is a good way to waste money," he told the Guardian.
The Evening Standard is facing a combination of the industry-wide downturn in advertising, the shift of readers to the internet and a war of attrition in London with rival News International. The two publishing companies have waged a bitter loss-making battle since launching their respective free afternoon papers, London Lite and the London Paper, in 2006.
Associated Newspapers, the DMGT subsidiary that also publishes the morning fresheet Metro, launched London Lite partly to protect the Standard against the London Paper. In November it emerged that DMGT had sought a truce of some kind with News International, an offer that was rebuffed. It has instead looked at a range of radical options for the Evening Standard – which now include its sale to a cash-rich Russian businessman.

Our first major event of our book tour is in New York City, the city where I grew up and lived most of my life.

Corby is one of the most erudite, brilliant, and insightful speakers I know, so this will be a rare treat. I can't wait to hear his questions and thoughts about baking and the new book. I hope to see you there!


text: Hsinchu (新竹) is historically a very important area in Taiwan and when the modern era came to the country the words "Made in Taiwan" became synonymous with "Hsinchu". The area has a history of over 400 years and was used as an administrative capital by the Ching Dynasty and the Japanese. It is populated predominately by the Hakka people (and engineers) and is one of the areas where Hakka culture is well-preserved and celebrated. The Hsinchu Science Park is the home of many major corporations and helps to fuel the worlds hunger for technology. The city is full of historic locations like the City God Temple (城隍廟) and the beautiful Japanese-era train station while the county has mountains, rivers, aboriginal tribes and old streets such as Beipu (北浦老街) and Neiwan (內灣老街) as well as having the tallest standing statue of the Laughing Buddha in the world at Emei lake. Hsinchu is a great place to visit to learn about the history of Taiwan but also to sample some of the special foods that the area is known for.
