I've been thinking a lot about the growing success of e-commerce and its effect on our local businesses. What would happen to the neighborhood I grew up in if our dependable grocery store of 60 years (which I've been frequenting for the past 51) went out of business? I personally know that many residents here would be devastated. I depend on them for that last minute cilantro I forgot to grab at Whole Foods, or that load of Ice Cream my stoned sister is craving.

Sweden is an open, multicultural society with a long tradition of welcoming international students. Currently, more than 40,000 foreign students study in Sweden, making for a vibrant, international study environment. Swedish universities are renowned for their investigative research and independent thinking, and this reputation is cemented with nationally certified degrees and rigorous quality control. Research and innovation have been hallmarks of Swedish higher education ever since the first university was founded in the 15th century.
Experience a culture of innovation
One of the world's most modern countries, Sweden is the birthplace of many successful international corporations. Innovative research at Swedish universities and companies has resulted in a number of successful inventions.
Some examples are Bluetooth for mobile phones, the online music streaming service Spotify, and pacemakers. These fairly recent inventions build on a long history of excellence in academia and research. Sweden is the home of the prestigious Nobel Prize and has highly acclaimed universities dating back to the 15th century.
Develop skills for tomorrow
Studying in Sweden is different. Swedish universities have an open climate, with a strong focus on group work. This will give you invaluable skills for the future. The global job market values ambitious, innovative and perceptive team players. Swedish universities foster these qualities through a forward-thinking culture where you're close to the latest ideas and trends.
Swedish master's degree programs offer a plethora of opportunities to turn theory into practice. With a choice of more than 600 master's programs, you're bound to find the one to develop your skills for tomorrow's challenges. Many programs also cooperate closely with the industry, offering students the possibility to mix study and practical work. This gives you distinct advantages over your peers when entering the job market.
Sweden has three universities in the top 100 and eleven in the top 500 of the 2011 edition of the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
Reach your full potential
Swedish universities will encourage you to discover and develop your true strengths and talents. The education system is student-centric and relations between students and teachers are informal. As a student in Sweden you're expected to address your teachers by their first name.
Personal initiative and independent thinking are prized. You will be required to take an active role and contribute with your opinions and ideas at lectures, seminars and in group discussions.
Taking the initiative and questioning old presumptions is rewarding, especially in the long term. It will give you the opportunity to develop your individual strengths and refine your academic abilities.
English is spoken by all
Almost all Swedes speak fluent English. Many Swedish companies use English as their official working language. International students find that this prevalence of English makes adapting to their new surroundings all the easier.
Swedish research is wide-ranging and well respected internationally. Swedish researchers are especially prominent in the fields of natural science, medicine and technology. Most publicly funded research is carried out at universities. Many teachers are involved in both teaching and research, while also supervising PhD students. However, even the private sector invests a great amount of resources in research and development.
Several of these R&D-intensive companies are grouped in clusters throughout Sweden. Examples of these clusters are Kista Science City (Stockholm) with focus on ICT, life sciences in "Medicon Valley" (Skåne) and Biotech Umeå, and space research around Kiruna. Some of the most prominent Swedish companies with large research divisions are Electrolux, Ericsson, SCA, and Volvo. Sweden is the EU's "Innovation Leader" according to the latest Innovation Union Scoreboard, and has defended this position since 2006.
Some 18,000 research students are currently enrolled in Sweden. Research in Sweden has an international approach, and exchange is seen as an integral part of the system. About 20% of all research students have a non-Swedish background. PhD students are usually fully funded by a research salary from their university, and can apply for grants and scholarships for additional funding or international research trips.
To be admitted to a postgraduate research position, a student must hold a university degree equivalent to a bachelor's degree or higher, with a major in the same subject as the intended field of study. In most cases a master's degree is required. Foreign students wishing to study for a PhD in Sweden are advised to prepare with a master's degree in Sweden first, if a relevant program is available in English. A Swedish master's degree is likely to improve a student's chances of being admitted to a PhD program.
If you are enrolled at a Swedish university or university college you can work in Sweden during the course of your studies without a work permit. You do, however, need a residence permit if you stay for longer than three months.
All universities are required to publicly announce open research positions. These PhD and job announcements can be found on universities' websites, and an overview of PhD jobs is also provided.
If you have received a job offer after you have finished your studies, you are free to stay in Sweden to work. More liberal labor migration laws came into force in December 2008, making it easier to move to Sweden for work for non-EU citizens. As English is spoken by everyone and many international companies with English as their corporate language are based in Sweden, plenty of opportunities are available for qualifieds non-Swedish speakers. Dedicated information for interested job-seekers from outside the EU/EEA is available for learning more about working in Sweden.
As a student in Sweden, you will have ample opportunity to make new friends. A good part of your social life will revolve around your student union. The union can often help you with finding accommodation and other practical matters. Do make sure you are covered by adequate health insurance while in Sweden.
Swedes tend to be active and sporting activities are popular among students. Sporting clubs and societies organize a wide range of activities on campus at most universities and university colleges. Taking part in these activities is probably the best way to meet new people and take a break from studying. To find out more about these activities, just ask a fellow Swedish student or pick up a copy of your local newspaper. You also have an invaluable social resource in your local student union.
Student unions have long been the natural meeting point for new students and many offer services of different kinds to foreign students. Some have so-called host or mentor programs in which students already enrolled at university meet visiting students on arrival and introduce them to the city and fellow students. You can get in touch with your union through your university or university college and ask about the services they provide to foreign students.
When you join a union you will receive a student card that entitles you to benefits and discounts on domestic travel. Many shops also offer student discounts. Other services include updated information on activities on and off campus and help in most matters relating to your stay in Sweden. Best of all, perhaps, is the chance to take part in interesting social activities and meet new people.
Innovation and corporations
Sweden has a number of large multinational corporations, such as telecom equipment provider Ericsson, automotive companies Volvo and Scania, household appliances corporation Electrolux, bearing manufacturer SKF, and high-tech engineering groups Sandvik and Atlas Copco. Some products to have come out of these companies are the ball bearing, Tetra Pak beverage packaging system, three-point seatbelt, dialysis machine and internet applications such as the online music service Spotify and calling solution Skype.
The deep-rooted creative environment has made Sweden a strong nation within design, fashion and music, with well-known international brands such as furniture giant IKEA and clothes retailer H&M. Sweden is also one of the largest music-exporting countries in the world.
Strong links to research
Sweden is one of the world's most committed investors in basic research; spending in the field of research amounts to almost 4 percent of GDP to research and development, making Sweden the top-ranking country in the EU in that respect. What further distinguishes Sweden is the high proportion of university-based research, which makes possible a strong connection between research and education. Lecturers are encouraged to pursue research and to continuously develop their skills, while professors regularly teach - even at introductory levels.
Despite its natural riches, Sweden is a country built on people. Over the last century, Swedish dependence on timber and iron ore has given way to an emphasis on human resources. Today, knowledge is Sweden's prime asset, with education kept in the public domain and developed to a standard that ranks consistently among the highest in OECD statistics.
In international politics, Sweden has built a reputation as a nation of mediators. The country pursues non-alignment in international conflicts and strives to offer a safe haven for diplomatic debate among warring factions the world over. As a result, the Swedes have seen a long list of important international positions entrusted to their fellow citizens.
Climate & environment
Sweden is a country where winter is winter and summer is summer. Although the northern tip of the country lies above the Arctic Circle, its climate is tempered by the Gulf Stream.
A leading country in environmental conservation, Sweden boasts great scenic beauty, and was the first country in Europe to protect the most vulnerable parts of its natural heritage. More than half of the country is covered with forest while lakes and rivers make up 10% of its surface area.

Neighborhoods: Florida Center, Southwest
best ever – I was on orlando on 2008 January due to some office work and i found this place through some local advise.
This time i am here in orlando for vaccation and i knew the place but wondering if they are still there because i forgot the name. But luckily i found the place still exist and felt happy to notice everything change from best to excellent.
I dont know how they manage but even after long time since they open the restaurant looks like new and the food was fresh.
So, Being a Indian I must say i loved this place, The food is just right.
wow ...excellent food – We were in orlando for 5 days and we went almost everyday for dinner .This was the best indian food I had in a long time .I am vegetarian and tried most of the dishes especially my favourite paneer chilli ,vege kadahai,paneer makhni and malai kofta and my husband ,he like the meat items a lot .service was as pleasant as you expect after getting good food .The restaurant managed very efficient way . love this place
Good Indian Food – I had a good experience on Friday, 7/18/08. I attended the buffet (11:30am - 2:30pm). The food was good and tasteful. The waiters were attentive and helpful and most importantly, the restroom clean.
This restaurant is very casual, and family oriented, but if your trying to impress a client??????hmmm, I would think twice.....
Please don't get me wrong the restaurant is really clean, pleasant atmosphere, relaxed, etc.
The reason why I rated the restaurant average, is because I have experienced better as far as indian food and atmosphere are concerned.
Where Indians go for Indian food. – In Short
Spice up your life at this local favorite, where native Indians and British tourists revel in tandoori and top notch service. Aashirwad (which means blessing) is scented with incense and recently underwent a paint job in maroon and gold to add to the ambiance. The lunch buffet is ever changing: Paneer pakora (Indian fried cheese), vegetable samosas, curried meats and stews, buttered naan, basmati rice and for dessert, mango ice cream and rice kheer (pudding). The salad bar offers condiments like yogurt, chutneys and kachumber--spiced onions, tomatoes and cucumbers. Vegetarians and meat lovers alike will find plenty to satisfy.

the worst ever – we where looking forward to a nice dinner, and by the look of it arturo's is a upscale place.
Nothing is further from the truth, the host gave us the feeling that we where an inconvienience but you think "maybe he is having a bad day"
The salad we got was blend and without fantasy, you get a better salad at McDonald.
The special of the day was lasagna and by de discription of the waiter is was the ultimate experience in italian cuisine. WRONG!!!!!!!!! It was probably warmed up from the day before, the edges where dryed out and it tasted like cheap supermarket lasagna so we eat only a few bites.
After mentioning our disappointment to the waiter we got the check, we got charged the full amount, $ 55 for a few bites of bad food was not what we had in mind for a nice saturdayevening dinner.
rude service, very expensive Exceptionally rude service" – we were seated for more than 2 hours before our entered were served. While we were ordering, the waiter kept trying to hurry us up. When we told him we needed another minute he left us and didn't come back until my husband got up from the table and went to find him. When we asked our waiter when would we be served, he told us the restaurant had over 250 other meals to get put. We had to get up to refill our own water and had to ask multiple times to get refills on soda for the children in our party. After a very expensive meal that was definitely not worth it, my husband spoke to the manager. He shrugged his shoulders and said " sorry" and walked away. I can't remember the last time I received such poor service from any restaurant, never mind one with four diamonds! Exceptionally rude service. Overpriced. Unbelievable that it rates 4 diamonds. The staff and management did not care that we were waiting for over two hours to receive our meal. When we asked where our entered were, we received a very surly response. At the end ofvthe long meal, we said something tovehe manager who shrugged his shoulders and walked away. Steer clear of this place
Bad service, bad food – Rude, bad service, mediocre food
Mustard attack caesar salad – Nice staff to patron ratio, but subpar food. I've learned to expect uninspired food in Boca, but there's no excuse for such poor plating and blandness. The salad was an unedible pastiche of mustard and stale croutons
Best Italian in the city – This hidden gem is a dazzling display of ambieance and preparation.Dont believe these bad reviewers who give this place a 1 star. These types of jerks are what run wonderful restaraunts out of business. As you enter into your dining room you can visually see where the pasta is homemade every day by a wonderful chef who has been in the kitchen for a long time and knows what hes doing. The service is attentive and is at your hand every step of the meal. First the antipasto cart a delicous display of fine Italian specaelties. Then to the ceasar salad tableside. How many places in Boca have such that. For dinner the veals are all good and the fish is fresh also this is somewhat kid friendly and this restarunt is great for special occasions. For desert you can choose from one of the best Italian desserts you'll ever have. Their pastry chef Elisa Gismondi was awarded the dessert diva award in the best of boca November Issue. Or you can go simply with bananas foster tableside. Always a great treat. This is truly the one of the best old school Italian restarunts around.
AWESOME RESTAURANT – They treated us like royalty; they gave us a private room, and there were literally 1-3 waiters in the room 100% of the time catering to our every whim. The table was set perfectly for the # of people, and it was really fantastic. The private room was awesome and perfect for a business dinner.
Unbelievably rude – We went to Arturo's for our anniversary with our family and were very disappointed. My in-laws used to go here all the time for their anniversary years ago - so we were excited - however, after we got our food - we were extremely disappointed. My mother-in-law ordered a filet and it was soooooo incredibly tough - it was hard to cut through - and didn't taste that good. We let the server know and he never apologized, never asked if she wanted anything else, etc. The server then got very rude with my father-in-law and argued with him. When the bill came, we stated that we didn't think we should pay for the steak - but - were told that it was 'up to the owner' - and the owner didn't take it off the bill. So needless to say - we will never go back here again and will make sure anyone we talk to does not go either. P.S. My husband will eat anything and everything and he even stated that the steak was disgusting :(
A dining experience – With large portions of hearty Italian fare, served in a romantic "grown-up" atmosphere, Arturo's is a great place for family celebrations.
You can even "people watch" as the South Florida parade of plastic surgery unfolds.
Bring your Gucci watch and lots of cash and relax and enjoy. (Try the veal dishes. They are excellent!)
It's like Brooklyn relocated... to South Florida.
Maaarvelous!!! – The food, the ambiance, the service...all were impeccable. My husband and I were there for our first anniversary. The assorted vegetables from the appetizer cart were a delight! We both had ravoili stuffed with mushrooms as a second appetizer. For dinner, my husband had veal shank over angel hair pasta and I had lamb chops sauteed in a white wine butter sauce. We both were speechless as we devoured every morsal. We ended our meal with ricotta cheesecake and tiramisu. To our surprise, our bill was only $104 (no drinks, without tip). We were serenaded by the pianist. Absolute romance was the order of the evening. We will return!!

Max here, putting our website where our mouth is. We're helping organizations get the word out about some great things that you can do to help make our world a better place. This is AreUKind, 2 young men, Josh and Jake who are on a mission!
In a world filled with negativity and a 24 hour-a-day news cycle serving only to magnify all that is bad, there is an obvious shortage of kindness. If you're lucky enough to catch a positive story on the news, oftentimes they are reported as random acts of kindness. As great as those are, wouldn't inspiring Planned Acts of Kindness be even better? And wouldn't each Planned Act of Kindness help to trigger countless other random acts of kindness?
That's why we created AreUKind! Click HERE to visit the site.
The new Jimi Hendrix biopix film "All Is By MY Side" directed by Academy Award-winning screenwriter Mark Ridley looks promisingly good with Outkast's Andre 3000 in the starring role.
Here's a clip of Jimi wooing a groupie despite the fact he has a girlfriend. The film will debut in the U.S. on March 12 at the South by Southwest's film festival.

Women in Diplomacy
Date: 25-26 August 2011
Venue:Conference room C, United Nations Headquarters, New York
Coordinator: Ms. Helene Gandois
To register, please visit the catalogue page.
Historically, the participation of women in international affairs and diplomacy has been limited. Until recently, women occupy only a small share of senior leadership positions in the United Nations system and in government hierarchies, including the diplomatic services. In an effort to achieve gender balance, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for the entire United Nations system to "redouble its efforts through adopting new policies where none exist and more rigorously implement existing ones". Since 2007, the number of women holding positions at senior management level in the United Nations has increased by 40%. With regard to female ambassadors to the United Nations, the share has increased from 5.7% in 2000 to 12.5% in 2008, still remaining low overall.
The under-representation of women has been recognized by the international community, amongst others, through the adoption of Security Council resolution 1325 (2000), urging Member States to amplify the voice of women on issues of peace and security by increasing their representation at all decision-making levels. The Platform for Action adopted at the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing stresses that the active participation of women in decision-making positions, coupled with the incorporation of women's perspectives at the policy formulation level, are indispensable components to achieving equality, development and peace. These developments mark an opportune time for female diplomats to assess challenges faced by women in aspiring to leadership positions in the diplomatic context and to identify and train skills suitable to address such gender-specific challenges, in particular in the area of negotiations and leadership.
This workshop aims to 1) create a space for reflection on challenges women face in advancing in institutional hierarchies; 2) promote career development of women in junior and mid-level positions through skills acquisition; and 3) provide participants with insights and experiences from other female diplomats.
At the end of this workshop, participants will have:
- Acquired an overview of different gender approaches;
- Analysed gender specificities and gender differences in negotiation, leadership, and communication styles;
- Addressed the cultural and institutional challenges facing women in aspiring to senior-level responsibility in the multilateral context;
- Enhanced relevant skills to assume leadership positions and active roles in multilateral diplomacy.
Organized over two full days, the workshop will take an interactive, participatory and practice‐oriented approach, involving practical exercises, case studies, interactive lectures, and peer‐to‐peer learning. The workshop will be conducted in English and facilitated by Ms. Florrie Darwin, Lecturer on Law at the Harvard Law School, and Ms. Constance Morris Hope, Certified Trainer and Facilitator. Ms. Bachelet, Executive Director, United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) will open the workshop. Other prominent guest speakers from the United Nations system, academia and Member States will contribute perspectives on gender-approaches to negotiation, leadership and communication. A workbook with reference documents will be provided to all participants.
All participants who successfully complete the workshop will receive a UNITAR Certificate of Participation.
This workshop is intended for female delegates of permanent missions to the United Nations in New York. Registration is limited to 25 persons, with priority given to delegates from developing and least developed countries, and to delegates who have completed UNITAR's module I course on "Effective Negotiation in Multilateral Conferences" or comparable offers. Selected participants are requested to regard their participation as a firm commitment.

Before situation changed, state officials expressed outrage about Sandy aid
State leaders are upset that Congress failed to vote as expected Tuesday on an emergency aid package for Hurricane Sandy's victims.
The Republican leadership of the U.S. House opted against bringing a $60.4 billion relief bill that the Democrat-led Senate passed to a vote.

I have always been a fan of caramel ever since I was a little kid, but when I moved to Argentina and was introduced to Dulce de Leche my mind was literally blown and I have been an addict ever since (I actually have a dulce de leche-scented candle burning in my room at this very moment!). You see caramel is made from pure sugar, but dulce de leche is made from sweetened milk so it has a much richer and creamier texture. In Latin American cultures, dulce de leche is used to flavor all sorts of sweets and candies, from ice cream (the best is Freddo), to lollipops, to cakes, and cookies ("alfajores").
Ever since my return to the US, I have been looking for more and more ways to include it in my baking recipes at home. The result?
These mouth-watering tres leches macaroons, which make for a perfect passover dessert since they are gluten free! I made them for my friend Liz's cookie exchange this holiday season, and they were a smashing hit. I might also add that they stayed good in the refrigerator for about 2 1/2 weeks when stored in an air tight container.
And as if coconut and caramel aren't already decadent enough, I also like to dip my macarons in chocolate! They are sinfully good and ridiculously easy to make, so print this recipe out and make them please!
{ Ingredients }
- 2 – 14 oz bags of sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 – 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk
- 2 Tbsp sour cream
- 1 Tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tsp good vanilla extract (I use Madagascar)
- 1 tsp almond extract
- 1 bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips for dipping (optional!)
[ To Make the Macaroons }
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Combine the shredded coconut, the condensed milk, the sour cream, the heavy cream, and the extracts in the bowl of an electric mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment.
3. Mix the ingredients together on a low speed until well thoroughly combined.
4. Use a large ice cream scoop (#12) to spoon the batter onto a baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper. Do not press down on the cookies!!
5. Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until slightly golden brown around the edges.
6. Use wire racks to allow to cool completely on baking sheet. Then dip in melted semi-sweet chocolate, if desired!
7. Or drizzle with melted semi-sweet chocolate!

Plantar wart
|Plantar wart/verruca
|Classification and external resources
A plantar wart. Striae (fingerprints) go around the lesion.
A plantar wart, verruca or myrmecia (formally, a verruca plantaris[1]:405) is a wart caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) occurring on the sole (Latin planta) or toes of the foot. (HPV infections in other locations are not plantar; see human papillomavirus.) Plantar warts are usually self-limiting, but treatment is generally recommended to lessen symptoms (which may include pain), decrease duration, and reduce transmission.[2]
Infection occurs in an estimated 7–10% of the US population. In a 1949 survey of 3,906 mainland Chinese and 1,222 Indians who had never worn shoes, plantar warts were reported in 0.29% of subjects. [3] While lower than rates in the US, this alone does not establish a causal relationship between shoe usage and incidence rate of plantar warts; genetics plays an important role in determining susceptibility. Common warts appear approximately twice as frequently in whites as in blacks or Asians.[4]
Plantar warts are benign epithelial tumors generally caused by infection by human papilloma virus types 1, 2, 4, 60, or 63,[5] but have also been caused by types 57,[6] 65,[7] 66,[8] and 156.[9] These types are classified as clinical (visible symptoms). The virus attacks compromised skin through direct contact, entering through possibly tiny cuts and abrasions in the stratum corneum (outermost layer of skin). After infection, warts may not become visible for several weeks or months. Because of pressure on the sole of the foot or finger, the wart is pushed inward and a layer of hard skin may form over the wart. A plantar wart can be painful if left untreated.[2][10]
Warts may spread through autoinoculation, by infecting nearby skin or by infected walking surfaces. They may fuse or develop into clusters called mosaic warts.[5]
A plantar wart is a small lesion that appears on the sole of the foot and typically resembles a cauliflower, with tiny black petechiae (tiny hemorrhages under the skin) in the center. Pinpoint bleeding may occur when these are scratched, and they may be painful when standing or walking.
Plantar warts are often similar to calluses or corns, but can be differentiated by close observation of skin striations. Feet are covered in skin striae, which are akin to fingerprints on the feet. Skin striae go around plantar warts; if the lesion is not a plantar wart, the striations continue across the top layer of the skin. Plantar warts tend to be painful on application of pressure from either side of the lesion rather than direct pressure, unlike calluses (which tend to be painful on direct pressure instead).
HPV is spread by direct and indirect contact from an infected host. Avoiding direct contact with infected surfaces such as communal changing rooms and shower floors and benches, avoiding sharing of shoes and socks and avoiding contact with warts on other parts of the body and on the bodies of others may help reduce the spread of infection. Infection is less common among adults than children.[10]
As all warts are contagious, precautions should be taken to avoid spreading them. The British National Health Service recommends that children with warts:
- cover them with an adhesive bandage while swimming
- wear flip-flops when using communal showers
- should not share towels.[11]
Plantar warts are not prevented by inoculation with currently available HPV vaccines, because the warts are caused by different strains of the human papillomavirus. Gardasil protects against strains 6, 11, 16, and 18; and Cervarix protects against 16 and 18; whereas plantar warts are caused by strains 1, 2, 4, and 63.
Conventional treatments that have been found to be effective[12] include:
|First-line therapy
|Over the counter salicylic acid
|Second-line therapy
|Cryosurgery, intralesional immunotherapy, or pulsed dye laser therapy
|Third-line therapy
|Bleomycin, surgical excision
Salicylic acid—The treatment of warts by keratolysis involves the peeling away of dead surface skin cells with Keratolytic chemicals such as salicylic acid or trichloroacetic acid. These are available in over-the-counter products or, in higher concentrations, may need to be prescribed by a physician. A 12 week daily treatment with salicylic acid has been shown to lead to a complete clearance of warts in 10–15% of the cases.[13]
Cantharadin (blister beetle extract) applied to a wart by a doctor causes a blister after 4–6 hours. One formulation is known as Cantharone (0.7% Cantharidin); a more powerful one is Cantharone PLUS which contains the same active ingredient as Cantharone, but it also contains Podophyllin (5%) and Salicylic Acid (30%).
Immunotherapy—Intralesional injection of antigens (mumps, candida or trichophytin antigens USP) is a new wart treatment which may trigger a host immune response to the wart virus, resulting in wart resolution. It is now recommended as a second-line therapy.[14]
Liquid nitrogen—This, and similar cryosurgery methods, is a common surgical treatment which act by freezing the internal cell structure of the warts, destroying the live tissue. Up to three sessions may be required.
Electrodesiccation and surgical excision may produce scarring.
Laser surgery—This is generally a last resort treatment, as it is expensive and painful, but may be necessary for large, hard-to-cure warts.[15]
Cauterization—This may be effective as a prolonged treatment. As a short-term treatment, cauterization of the base with anaesthetic can be effective, but this method risks scars or keloids. Subsequent surgical removal is unnecessary, and risks keloids and recurrence in the operative scar.[16]
Duct tape[edit]
Duct tape occlusion therapy involves placing a piece of duct tape over the wart. Evidence fails to conclusively support its effectiveness.
Relative effectiveness[edit]
A 2006 review of the effects of different local treatments for cutaneous, non-genital warts in healthy people concluded: [17]
- there is a lack of evidence (many trials were excluded because of poor methodology and reporting).
- the average cure rate using a placebo was 27% after an average period of 15 weeks.
- the best treatments are those containing salicylic acid. They are clearly better than placebo.
- there is little clinical trial data for the absolute efficacy of cryotherapy
- two trials comparing salicylic acid and cryotherapy showed no significant difference in efficacy.
- one trial comparing cryotherapy and duct tape occlusion therapy showed no significant difference in efficacy.
- evidence for the efficacy of the remaining treatments was limited

Shakira and her beau Gerard Piqué are brand new parents.
The Colombian-Lebanese pop singer, 35, and her soccer star boyfriend, 25, welcomed their baby boy in Spain on Tuesday. The tiny tot's name: Milan, which means "dear, loving and gracious in Slavic; in Ancient Roman, eager and laborious; and in Sanskrit, unification," according to Shakira's website.
"We are happy to announce the birth of Milan Piqué Mebarak, son of Shakira Mebarak and Gerard Piqué, born January 22nd at 9:36pm, in Barcelona, Spain," said a statement posted Tuesday. "Just like his father, baby Milan became a member of FC Barcelona at birth."
Earlier in the day she had tweeted, "I'd like to ask you all to accompany me in your prayers on this very important day of my life. Shak." The "Loca" singer also wrote the message in Spanish.
Milan weighed in at 6 pounds, 6 ounces, and he and Shakira are in "excellent health."
In late December, Piqué facetiously posted on Twitter that their son had been born, partaking in Spain's Dia de los Inocentes, which is similar to the American April Fool's Day.
The couple has been dating for two years and announced the pregnancy last September. UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Shakira and Piqué posed semi-nude together last week to promote their baby shower, which benefited UNICEF.
Shakira previously dated Antonio de la Rúa fo 11 years but split from her business partner in August 2010.

Royce White suffers from more than anxiety and OCD. he displays all the classic signs and symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder as defined by the association of american psychiatrists: taking advantage of others to reach ones own goals, exagerating ones own importance, imagining unrealistic fantasies of success or intelligence, wanting the "best" of everything, setting unrealistic goals, requiring constant attention from others, being excessively preoccupied with issues of personal adequacy. If you look at Whites behavior from college, such as announcing his withdrawl from Minnesota on youtube, to everything hes done since being drafted (acting as if hes the sole champion for mental health amongst professional athletes) he clearly shows traits consistent with narcissistic personality disorder.
Royce White leaves D-League, returns to Houston
The Royce White saga continues.
After reporting to the NBA's Development League in February, Houston Rockets rookie Royce White tweeted Thursday that he has been advised by a team physician to return to Houston.
It's unclear, however, whether that advice comes from the Rockets team physician or a doctor with the NBDL's Rio Grande Vipers. It's also uncertain whether White will be back with the Rockets this season. He was told by the physician that "it is most logical" to be back in Houston, but White clarified that by no means does this mean he will be rejoining the Rockets.
The move back to Houston is yet another chapter in what can certainly be described as an unorthodox season for a professional athlete. White has been vocal about an anxiety disorder, specifically with flying in airplanes, and has worked with the Rockets to help him overcome his condition. Houston knew about the anxiety disorder when it drafted him last year out of Iowa State with the 16th overall pick, but matters seem to have only gotten worse over the course of the season, and there is clearly no indication that he will be back with the team or play in an NBA regular season game.
Most recently, White said he thinks the Rockets and the NBA want him "gone" because business is about convenience and "not about doing what's necessary."
"If I was to make an educated guess, I would guess that Adam Silver and David Stern and the Rockets organization, some other owners in the league, GMs want me gone. And why do they want me gone? Because business is about convenience. It's not about doing what's necessary. It's about cutting overhead. A lot of times what's best for us as human beings doesn't meet that criteria for business people."
Have been advised by our team physician it is most logical I be in Houston the remainder of the season.
Thank you @rgvvipers for having me.—
Royce White (@Highway_30) March 21, 2013
Never said I'd be rejoining the @HoustonRockets… only that I'd be returning to Houston.
Again, thank you @rgvvipers for having me.—

Avon MOISTURE THERAPY Intensive Healing & Repair Hand Cream
Good moisturing hand cream
This hand cream is actually very good. It does feel a little too slippery at first but eventually it blends in. I like that even when you wash your hands, you still have residue from this lotion. You won't need to reapply that often.

The Original Is the best.
I always go back to the original Listerine. It's strong, but it does the job. Leaves your mouth feel really clean for hours. Nothing else compares to this.

Perfect for me.
I love Neuotrogena alcohol free toner. I use in the AM and PM. Doesn't leave my skin tight, as other toners with alcohol do. I have a menopause skin and found this toner is gentle and perfect for me. Love it and is the only toner that I use.

GM Lance Blanks sends letter to Suns season-ticket holders
Originally published: Jan 20, 2013 - 6:54 pm
In the message, Blanks introduces Hunter as the team's leader moving forward and attempts to showcase his extensive NBA experience, both as a player and as a coach. The general manager also went out of his way to thank former coach Alvin Gentry, who mutually agreed to part ways with the team Friday.
While Phoenix sits in dead last in the Western Conference and enters the halfway point of the 2012-13 season at 13-28, the Suns general manager tried to remain as upbeat as possible in the message.
He made sure to include the following in his four-paragraph note to Suns fans:
I remain excited about this and know that our future is bright. As a result of careful planning, we've created a lot of options and flexibility to help us begin moving towards elite status. For example, we have as many as 10 draft picks over the next three seasons, including at least two first-round and one second-round picks this year. In addition, we currently have $6.5 million in cap space to sign new players. Our work is far from over, but with our commitment to excellence and perseverance the Suns are sure to rise again.
With the organization's eye already towards the offseason, Blanks added that the team will hold town meetings in the coming weeks to discuss the draft and free agency.
- Robert Sarver, Suns owner - Friday April 18Robert Sarver talks about possible offseason plans.
- Bickley Blast - Friday April 18Does Eric Bledsoe want to spend the prime of his career with the Suns?
- Jon Barry, ESPN NBA insider - Friday April 18Who is the team to beat in the East?

Spanish, Mexican, American, and a hint of Italian recipes are served tapas-style, with panes and burgers rounding out the offerings. Choose from dressed up eats like a turkey burger with a side of finladia cranberry mayo, or munch on tapas like roasted red pepper and pesto hummus, chipotle and orange barbecue fajitas and sangria chicken. Though portions are small, prices are even smaller (generally $4.25-$7.50), especially when you opt for a daily special. A burger with fries runs $2 on Monday; Sunday features selected tapas at $3.
Drinks are also affordably priced, especially when you shake things up with $5 martinis on Friday and $2 sangria on Thursday. Picky about your drinks? Get a bargain on whatever poison you pick on Wednesday, which features half off all drinks. In terms of tasty poison, you can plunk down $15 for a large pitcher of the house specialty, sangria, or take the $6 martini route with flavor choices like watermelon and sour apple.
There's more than food and drink to be had: Two HDTV plasma screen TVs keep you up on events, a glass-front garagesque door opens on warmer nights, and DJs spin Top 40 and hip-hop on weekends. Private parties are big doings here, and reasonably priced: Three-hour premium open bar with appetizers is just $35 per person. (Janet Arvia)
Average cost: <$10

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I love this design, options, colors, etc. The quality of the paper is amazing. The ease of formatting and review of product before it was printed was such an easy process. I am amazed at the quality of an online product. I had thought about going to the invitation store in town, but I saved a lot of money and time by using Wedding Paper Divas. Can't wait to send them out!"
"This save the date card was gorgeous! The paper quality and the colors were fantastic. I was very pleased with them and so was the bride to be. Can't wait to hear what the guests will have to say about them. I know they will love them too!"
"I ordered my cards to come in red with the pearl white shimmer and rounded corners, and they were very beautiful! The quality of the paper was better than expected. I am very pleased with my order. :)"
"I thought the paper quality and printing were excellent. The customer service was professional, prompt and intelligent! Thank you for doing such a wonderful job and making this part of the process, stress free!"
"I ordered Save the Date cards in blue with grey ink. The paper quality and printing is very nice. I love the design on the back as well. The only thing I didn't like was the logo on the back, but I guess they have to advertise somehow. I am not into picture save the dates, and I thought this was a simple, nice looking, and well designed card that would have all the information needed for our guests."
