FARGO, ND. (KFGO AM) -- A light dusting of snow overnight, but you will find most highways in fair driving condition this morning with scattered compacted snow and ice that will require drivers to be cautious on the morning commute.
One of the trouble spots -- the Red River Bridge on I-94 between Fargo and Moorhead, the scene of several accidents yesterday.
It's the latest in a rash of crashes since last week.
De-icers don't work in the bitter cold and the bridge deck is often very slippery.
Tt was a different story in southwest and southcentral North Dakota late yesterday afternoon and evening where winds and snow prompted a Blizzard Warning.
Only a couple of inches of snow there but high winds gusting to 45 mph caused white out conditions across a number of counties.

Acne Scar Specialist Sydney
Posted 20 January 2013 - 04:55 AM
I live in Sydney Austrlia. I have now been researching for a while on how to fix my acne scars. I have attached my images to this post ( no flash, indoors, night time room light). I have consulted a couple of docs and got recommended a mix of subscision, fillers and laser. i wanted to get a second opinion and I have Googled the following list of doctors. If you have been treated by any doctor on this list then it will be great if you can share your feedback. Also, if you have been treated by a doctor in Sydney (who is not on my list) and were happy with results then pls do share their details. ok, here is my list so far:
1. Dr. Deborah Davis - www.herberdavis.com.au
2. Dr. Adrian Lim - www.uRepubic.com.au
3. North Sydney Dermatology - www.northsydneydermatology.com.au

Hello and welcome!
I am not from Sydney but I travel (4 hours each way) there every 8 weeks for my treatments. I haven't visited any of the clinics in your list but I can share the one I do go to, and one I implore you to stay away from.
I see a trained esthetician at the following clinic. I have also met the plastic surgeon who works there and he is lovely. He sat down just to talk with me while I was waiting for my appointment with the esthetician. I was very impressed however I am not 100% sure if Naveen does any treatments for acne scarring. If you want to know more about the esthetician I see you're welcome to ask! I have been having Dermaroller treatments with her since July last year.
http://naveensomia.com.au/ <--- YAY!
But, whatever you do please stay away from this place below. Nothing but money-hungry idiots who don't really care about your satisfaction. I had 5 Fraxel Laser sessions with the head honcho there and while the treatments were not horror stories, the time, effort and money I spent was not worth it. The doctor never returned my calls when I had concerns and the set up of their clinic is terrible. I actually had to walk past all the people in the waiting room after my treatment, very embarrassing and unpleasant.
http://www.facialrejuvenation.com.au/ <---- EVIL!
I see you have some rolling and boxcar scars there, similar to me before I started treatments. What treatments are you looking at having for your skin?
Posted 06 February 2013 - 06:03 AM
Posted 14 June 2013 - 01:34 AM
Hi kjoshi, have you had any treatments yet? I have very similar scarring to yours and am looking for advice.

For over twenty five years, Martzell & Bickford has successfully represented both governmental entities and individual landowners with mineral interests in their claims against various energy companies for environmental damages caused to their lands. The firm has also represented thousands of holders of royalty and overriding royalty interests for underpayment and/or miscalculation of royalties due to them by various drilling and production companies.
In the course of these representations, Martzell & Bickford has utilized numerous experts to test soil and wetlands for environmental contaminants, developed grids and maps of these areas to pinpoint the environmental damages, compiled pricing data to prove underpayment of royalties due, and secured proper payment of future royalties.
Since 2000, Martzell and Bickford has successfully negotiated several multimillion dollar settlements with a major oil companies on behalf of clients whose land had been severely damaged by drilling and pipeline canals. We have also settled several other large matters. In many cases these settlements also included an obligation on behalf of this company to restore the lands that the company had been damaged.
Recovery for environmental damages and disputed royalty claims implicates both state and federal law and requires creative approaches to application of these laws. Martzell & Bickford has developed significant experience in both settling and litigating these claims and aggressively pursues all available remedies on behalf of its clients.

Le Figaro
Front page of the Le Figaro, 30 January 2014.
|Dassault Group
|15 January 1826
|Political alignment
|Official website
Le Figaro (French pronunciation: [lə fiɡaʁo]) is a French daily newspaper founded in 1826 and published in Paris. It has been generally well respected in post-World War II France. Its editorial line is conservative.[1]
It is the second-largest national newspaper in France after Le Parisien and before Le Monde, although some regional papers have larger circulations. It is one of the three French newspapers of record, along with social-liberal papers Le Monde and Libération, and is the oldest newspaper in France.
The newspaper is owned by Le Figaro Group, whose publications include TV Magazine and Evene. The company's chairman is Serge Dassault, whose Dassault Group has controlled the paper since 2004.[citation needed]
The paper was founded as a satirical weekly in 1826, taking its name and motto from Le Mariage de Figaro, a play by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais that poked fun at privilege. Its motto, from Figaro's monologue in the play's final act, is "Sans la liberté de blâmer, il n'est point d'éloge flatteur" ("Without the freedom to criticise, there is no true praise"). It was published somewhat irregularly until 1854, when it was taken over by Hippolyte de Villemessant.
By 1866, it had gained the greatest circulation of any newspaper in France. Its first daily edition, that of 16 November 1866, sold 56,000 copies. Albert Wolff, Émile Zola, Alphonse Karr and Jules Claretie were among the paper's early contributors. In 1833, editor Nestor Roqueplan fought a duel with a Colonel Gallois, who was offended by an article in Le Figaro, and was wounded but recovered.[2] On 16 March 1914, Gaston Calmette, the editor of Le Figaro, was assassinated by Henriette Caillaux, the wife of Finance Minister Joseph Caillaux, after he published a letter that cast serious doubt on her husband's integrity.[3] In 1922, Le Figaro was purchased by perfume millionaire François Coty.[4] Abel Faivre did cartoons for the paper.[5]
By the start of World War II, Le Figaro had become France's leading newspaper. After the war it became the voice of the upper middle class, and continues to maintain a conservative position.
In 1975, Le Figaro was bought by Robert Hersant's Socpresse. In 1999, the Carlyle Group obtained a 40% stake in the paper, which it later sold in March 2002. As of 2004[update], Le Figaro is controlled by Serge Dassault, a conservative businessman and politician best known for running the aircraft manufacturer Dassault Aviation, which he inherited from his father, its founder, Marcel (1892–1986).
Le Figaro has published The New York Times International Weekly on Friday since 2009, an 8-page supplement featuring a selection of articles from The New York Times translated into French. In 2010, Lefigaro.fr created a section called Le Figaro in English,[6] which provides the global English-speaking community with daily original or translated content from Le Figaro's website. The section ended in 2012.[7]
Controversy about editorial independence[edit]
Controversial both inside and outside the newspaper is its ownership by a person who also controls a major military supplier, as well as being a mayor and senator from the Union for a Popular Movement party, whose son Olivier Dassault is a member of the French National Assembly for the same party.[8] In response, Dassault remarked in an interview on the public radio station France Inter,[9] that "newspapers must promulgate healthy ideas" and that "left-wing ideas are not healthy ideas."
In February 2012, a general assembly of the newspaper's journalists adopted a motion accusing the paper's managing editor, Étienne Mougeotte, of having made Le Figaro into the "bulletin" of the governing party, the Union for a Popular Movement, of the government and of President Nicolas Sarkozy. They requested more pluralism and "honesty" rather than one-sided political reporting. Mougeotte had previously said that Le Figaro would do nothing to embarrass the government and the right.[10][11][12] Mougeotte publicly replied:[13]
Our editorial line pleases our readers as it is, it works. I don't see why I should change it. [...] We are a right-wing newspaper and we express it clearly, by the way. Our readers know it, our journalists too. There's nothing new to that!
In 2006, Le Figaro was banned in Egypt and Tunisia for publishing articles allegedly insulting Islam.[14][15]
Circulation history[edit]
In the period of 1995-96, the paper had a circulation of 391,533 copies, behind Le Parisien's 451,159 copies.[16]

Thanks, Noreen
Thank you Walt ,for your postings and videos. I can't wait to read The Elephant Whisperer. As well as try a few of your postions from the vidoes.
Teres Major…Steak. Really?
I am a carnivore. I have come to terms with this. I was a vegetarian for a number of years, but drifted back to what was more comfortable. I know what I'm eating, even though the named cut of meat little resembles it's anatomical name. A strip steak or ribeye give one little clue as to it's origin. Even though I know that the tenderloin is the cow's psoas, I feel there is a degree of separation that allows me not to think too much about its origin.
This all changed this morning, with an article in my local newspaper's living section on the "new" steaks. Among a few innocuous named cuts was the Teres Major, as well as a recipe for this cut. My degree of separation was completely demolished. Is this crafty meat marketing or a major mistake? Maybe only those with some degree of anatomical knowledge will be bothered by this new cut. Count me in that group.
For now,
Walt Fritz, PT
I wanted to share this inspiring story with everyone. I will post it in a couple different parts. I hope you enjoy it!
They are big!
"They are gray and have a trunk and tusks and can squash you! 8,000 lbs. big. That's about all I knew about elephants, the world's largest land animal, until I read a new book.
If you love animals and love Myofascial Release then you will thoroughly enjoy "The Elephant Whisperer."
This fascinating book is a true story about an amazing man named Lawrence Anthony and his connection and impressive communication skills with animals."

Top Google+ trends: unusual landforms and water on Mars, James Cameron's record-breaking dive
They are following the NASA Mars Science Laboratory spacecraft as it adjusts its flight path halfway through its mission to make sure it's still headed towards Mars and talking about the possibility of life on Mars after scientists have said that the strange landmarks seen on Mars are most likely "the result of flowing water on the planet's surface."
Plussers are linking to news articles and congratulating Canadian film director James Cameron on his record-breaking solo submarine dive to the bottom of the ocean.
"A big thumbs up to James Cameron," say G+'ers, "It's pretty cool to see the unknowns of our planet being explored like this" and it will "be amazing to see the footage they come back with."
Google+ users are still talking about an 83-year-old grandmother who broke her nose on the glass facade of an Apple Store and is now trying to sue the company for $1 million.
People are also posting about Apple's nano-SIM technology. Apple reportedly said that it will "grant royalty-free licenses to any Apple patents essential to nano-SIM, provided that Apple's proposal is adopted as a standard and that all other patent holders accept the same terms in accordance with the principle of reciprocity."
Iran and Syria are back in the top five most talked about topics on Google+ as people take to the streets and go online in mass anti-war protests and Turkey and Norway close their embassies in Syria.

MONDAY, Sept. 23 (HealthDay News) -- A common drug used to treat nail fungus may hold promise against HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, according to a new study.
In laboratory research, the anti-fungal drug Ciclopirox allowed HIV-infected cells to get killed off by blocking the cells' mitochondria -- their powerhouse. In addition, Ciclopirox eliminated HIV from cell cultures, and the virus did not return when the anti-fungal drug was stopped, the study authors said.
This does not occur with currently available anti-HIV drugs, which must be taken for the rest of a patient's life, said study leaders Michael Mathews and Hartmut Hanauske-Abel, of the Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.
The effectiveness of Ciclopirox against HIV needs to be confirmed in human clinical trials. But because the drug is already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treatment of fungal infection and is considered safe, the clinical trial process for this treatment could be quicker and less costly than usual, the researchers said.
The study is published in the current edition of the journal PLoS One.
The use of combination antiretroviral drugs have vastly improved HIV treatment, the study authors said in a Rutgers news release. These so-called drug cocktails are effective at keeping HIV under control, but they never completely eradicate the infection.
HIV's persistence is partially due to its ability to disable a cell's so-called suicide pathway, which is normally triggered when a cell becomes infected or damaged.

Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner and Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn are laying out competing visions for how to create jobs and improve Illinois' economy.
Rauner spoke Thursday in Schaumburg. He says Quinn's track record on the economy is "atrocious."
The Winnetka businessman wants to lower Illinois' income tax rate, freeze property taxes and impose a sales tax on some services, such as trash collection.
He says Quinn's support for increasing income taxes hurts businesses and working people.
But Quinn calls Rauner's plan "a dumb idea" that would hurt everyday people.
Quinn appeared in Chicago to announce he's expanding a job-training program.
He noted Illinois' unemployment rate dropped again in June. Quinn says he helped pull Illinois out of the recession and "it's quite important we keep the momentum."

Cranston Mayor Allan Fung has announced that he has formed and exploratory committee for his potential run for governor in 2014.
The committee includes former Republican Governors Don Carcieri, former Governor Lincoln Almond, Warwick Mayor Scott Avedisian, and Lincoln town Administrator Joseph Almond.
"I have assembled a diverse group of individuals to explore whether or not my experience and skill set can help lead Rhode Island into better times. Having been born and raised in Rhode Island, I am heartbroken to see so many Rhode Islanders hurting. People are telling me they are worried about paying their mortgage, putting food on the table, and having enough money to fill their tank for the next job interview. This is unacceptable," said Fung.

Lauralee McIntyre had an instant rush of fame after being frequently shown on ESPN during UCLA's championship run at the College World Series, and the exposure may lead to multiple jobs for the 22-year-old.
McIntyre, whose boyfriend Eric Filia was the offensive star for the Bruins, talked with Larry Brown Sports about the opportunities she has received since the tournament. She told us what it was like to blow up in notoriety, and the story of how she and Filia began dating.
Though McIntyre was shown on TV during each of UCLA's five College World Series games — including the two games in the finals against Mississippi State — she really didn't realize until returning home to Los Angeles that she was blowing up online.
"Honestly, in Omaha, I had no idea. The Internet connection there was really slow, so I actually didn't have access to any of the blogs or tweets," McIntyre told Larry Brown Sports in a phone interview. "I couldn't accept Twitter followers or anything like that until a few days afterwards.
"I didn't really realize it until after it had happened."
McIntyre did say she heard from friends and family that she was receiving some attention online.
[Previously: Eric Filia's girlfriend has been very popular at the CWS]
"My sisters and other people would contact me and say, 'Hey, I saw you on this blog' or 'I saw your picture on this,' but I was so high off of my boyfriend winning the College World Series, it didn't really hit me or affect me, if that makes sense."
McIntyre, who graduated from UCLA in June with degrees in anthropology and political science, says she was surprised by all the attention she received, but she welcomes it.

How to drive across the country for free
Renting a car for a road trip is expensive, especially with hefty one-way fees. There's a much cheaper alternative.
This post comes from Brandon Ballenger at partner site Money Talks News.
You can drive across the country in someone else's car for free. It's called a driveaway, or auto delivery service. And yes, it's totally legit.
While you do have to pay for gas, car delivery services offer a much less expensive alternative to renting. Money Talks News founder Stacy Johnson, who has done this himself, talks with one company and one happy driver in the video below. Check it out, then read on for more details about how it works.
Renting a car for a one-way trip can be expensive. The cheapest one-week, Miami-to-Los Angeles one-way rental car price quote I could recently find from Enterprise, for example, was $1,789. That includes a "drop charge" of $500, a "concession recoup fee" of $146, sales tax of $117, and a note that "additional surcharges, local taxes, etc., may apply." (Last year Enterprise accounted for about half of the $20.5 billion car rental industry, according to Auto Rental News.)
So, what car delivery services like Auto Driveaway offer is priceless -- literally. They're a delivery company that matches drivers with cars that need shipping, and all you pay is a refundable deposit and the cost of gas. Auto Driveaway isn't the only company that does this, but it's one of the oldest (since 1952) and one of the biggest, with locations in 28 states.
Toronto Driveaway has fewer destinations available but offers trips to and from Canada. For other options, you can try calling companies in MoveCars.com's listings or look in the phone book under something like "automobiles -- transporters and driveaways." Note, however, that most car delivery companies use trucks or professional drivers to transport cars.
Before they turn over the keys, Auto Driveaway has a few requirements. But all things considered, they're not asking much to let you drive off in somebody else's car. Here's how it works:
- Requirements. You must be at least 23, have a driver's license, have a valid passport if you're a foreign citizen, and have a copy of your clean driving record, which is available from your state DMV for $5 to $10 or can be printed at the Auto Driveaway office.
- Deposit. A security deposit of $350 to $400 is required, and refunded after you arrive safely at the destination.
- Restrictions. These are common sense -- no eating, smoking, or alcohol, and no all-night driving. You may not be able to use the trunk space, because the owners are allowed to fill it with their stuff. Friends can come along (and that can help you cut costs more) but if they're driving, they have to give details up front just like you.
- Gas. The first tank is free, and you can't return the car on empty. Otherwise, you're on your own. For a Miami-to-LA trip, you're probably looking at more than $500: 2,800 miles, assuming 20 mpg and $3.75 a gallon.
- Distance. The trip could be coast-to-coast or as little as 200 miles. While there is a deadline and mileage limit, they leave wiggle room for drivers wanting to take a leisurely pace and detours. You should be fine doing 400 miles a day.
- One-way. There's no guarantee that once you reach your destination there's going to be another car headed back where you came from. You may have to wait, and the site only updates the car and destination list once a week, so you have to call for more accurate listings.
Obviously, driveaways aren't for everybody, and you should be aware that coming up with a car can take time. But if you're flexible, adventurous, and have a clean driving record, it's something to consider.
More on Money Talks News and MSN Money:
From earlier research, the driveaway company can't guarantee the car will not break down, but they are supposed to include road service in the insurance. A thorough checkout would save disputes over damages.

How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of goodwill.--Einstein
Tuesday, October 25, 2011
What would you say to your 16-year-old self?
Last night I discovered this charming book called Dear Me: A Letter to My Sixteen-Year-Old Self by Joseph Galliano. The book features letters by 75 people of various fame to their younger selves. Included are notes from folks like Bill T. Jones, John Waters, Erykah Badu, Alan Rickman and Daily Show correspondent Aasif Mandvi, who tells his teenage self "It is that very foreigness, that outsiderness, that feeling of being 'other' that is your power, and your mutability is the gift – use them both!" (The Indian-born Mandvi's family immigrated to England and, eventually, the United States, during his youth.)
When I heard Galliano interviewed on the radio last night, I knew this book would be on my to-read list. Since turning 40, I have, predictably, pondered the many things I would do differently if do-overs were possible. I am not the first person to wish that my young self had been possessed of even half my middle-aged self's wisdom, confidence and self regard. Such is life, though.
Truth be told, there aren't a ton of things I'd change about my life until now, because I believe strongly that every bump and triumph made me the woman I am today--and I'm not so bad, really. But there are a few things I might tell 16-year-old Tami:

The Virginia State Police are about to open a new training facility that includes miles of complex road courses and a state-of-the-art skid pan.
January 24, 2013—The number of high-speed police pursuits outside the small town of Blackstone, Virginia, will skyrocket soon, but the residents have nothing to fear. The chases will take place on the rolling, closed courses of the new Virginia State Police driver training complex near Fort Pickett.
The $27.5-million facility is located on an expansive, undulating 680-acre site, complete with ravines, streams, and wetlands. The site was originally a remote part of Fort Pickett. Before the project could begin in earnest, engineers had to test for land mines remaining from training exercises during World War II, according to Kenneth Wagner, a project manager at Dewberry, an architecture and engineering firm headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia. Dewberry designed the facility.
The facility includes elaborate urban and highway driving loops, as well as a state-of-the-art skid pan area to simulate driving in heavy rain conditions. A 52,000 sq ft building houses classrooms, a dormitory, and a vehicle maintenance facility.
The skid pan is a large polished-concrete pad, sloped to facilitate water flow over the surface. A 50 horsepower pump supplies up to 3,000 gallons of water per minute from a dedicated well on-site. The water is collected and recycled via a large overflow trench, which the pump can fill in less than 30 seconds.
The course includes a variety of intersections, complete with street and traffic signs. © Dewberry, Dave Huh, photographer
"People can't wait around for this thing to work," Wagner explains. "The drivers get to train in wet, hydroplane conditions. There was another one of these done in Tennessee. That's where we got the idea for this. And we've put stand-up sprinklers that will spray the windshields and other portions of the car in another area of that skid pan course."
The facility will accommodate 120 officers at a time for two weeks of training. The Virginia State Police expect to send about 3,000 officers through the facility every year for intensive driver training at the highly specialized facility.
"The urban area is a series of blocks," Wagner explains. "There is a railroad crossing. There is an alleyway. There is also a traffic circle, and a cul de sac, and they have multiple intersections. There is a road that crosses diagonally across blocks that you come to at a five-point intersection."
"The highway course is a 4.5 mi track," Wagner says. The course includes portions that are essentially interstate highways, as well as winding country roads. "They also have an off-road portion—just minimum grading with the trees cut down. They may have to respond on dirt roads."
The highway course has sections with concrete pavement, and sections with an asphalt surface to help officers master the different surfaces. Dewberry included a faux-concrete bridge on an asphalt curved road to duplicate the experience of transitioning from one surface to another.
Small gravel roads were included to simulate the most rural areas troopers are likely to encounter. © Dewberry, Dave Huh, photographer
Wagner says that although the roads won't be subjected to heavy traffic and large trucks, they were built to facilitate a long life span. The engineers largely followed prevailing highway geometry standards on the course, but tweaked a few turns and grades to simulate older highways built before current standards were implemented.
"In some areas we took liberty and maybe tightened up a turn, tightened up a radius, did a little bit of maneuvering with your super elevation," Wagner says. "We didn't go to extremes. We were trying to adhere as much as we could. But there are some elements that we put in that would only enhance their experience out there."
The facility has taken decades to develop, hampered by funding concerns. Initial planning in the 1990s was for a multiagency facility shared with fire and rescue responders. The urban facility was envisioned then to include rudimentary buildings for fire and rescue training.
The project moved to a rough grading stage in 2005, before another funding shortfall shelved it. That start created a challenge for the team in the form of construction overflow ponds that became designated wetlands in the ensuing years.
With the construction of the facility in Blackstone, Virginia State Police now have their first dedicated driver-training facility. © Dewberry, Dave Huh, photographer
When the Virginia State Police were awarded $44 million via a federal lawsuit involving misbranding and fraudulent marketing of a prescription pain medication, they decided to use the funds to complete the driver training course, and selected Dewberry to rework the project as a police facility.
The site presented several geotechnical challenges. Large rocks were prevalent near the surface and actually prompted the elimination of a few intersections. The money saved by that change helped fund the skid pan, Wagner says.
The impromptu wetlands prompted mitigation efforts, including the purchase of wetland and stream credits from a wetland mitigation bank approved of by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. "We could not remove those features," Wagner says. "We had to design around those features that were only put in temporarily for the first construction, even though we don't need them."
The facility, which is in the final stages of tweaking, gives the Virginia State Police their first dedicated facility. Before this, officers were trained at rented facilities.
