I am surprised that the signal on 45 (43) seems unchanged up here. I just got my 8 bay uhf antenna back up today, (it went down in that last big snow storm we got about 3 weeks ago). I had replaced it, temporarily, with a lower gain BT broadband UHF, which is a real tough antenna but very little gain. I know how fickle these digital signals are on the deep fringe, so I am keeping my fingers crossed, but I am encouraged so far. I look forward to the day when the new transmitter is in service.

The Doctrine of Thyroid Herbs
Conventional medicine, also called allopathic medicine, use drugs to treat a disease. These drugs produce the "opposite effect of the disease when given to an afflicted individual." For example, conventional thyroid medications attempt to either suppress the production of excess hormones or administer additional hormonal to supplement naturally low levels.
Alternative therapies are based on an entirely different philosophy and perspective of a disease. The basic philosophy is the same for all treatments including thyroid treatment .
- Homoeopathy – This line of medicine believes that treatment requires analysis of minute personality traits of the patient along with the prevalent symptoms to arrive at the final diagnosis.
- Ayurveda - The ancient Indian system of medicine considers the body, mind and soul as factors that are responsible for sustaining body health and preventing degeneration and finally death.
- Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): This stream of oriental medicine believes that the source of all health and ailments is the vital energy, Qi. The body remains healthy if Qi is unblocked and can flow freely in the body, but if the Qi is blocked in certain places, various health concerns can surface.
The basic commonality between all three streams of alternative medicine is that they all use herbs and natural products for treatment. Alternative thyroid treatments place more importance on improving lifestyles and nutritional diet, and providing spiritual support along with natural thyroid medication . Modern day fads and poor eating habits are considered responsible for the increased incidence of diseases. This is almost confirmed by the fact that societies that have totally shed traditional values and diets see a higher proportion of diseases that sometimes reach epidemic proportions.
Natural thyroid medication lays emphasis on these features:
- Striking a balance between rest, recreation and work
- Eating a healthy diet that is free from pollutants and chemicals
- Living close to and appreciating nature
- A positive approach to life
All of the above natural treatment therapies use different herbs for thyroid treatment. Homeopathic remedies comprise of preparations made from natural products including herbs, metals, and plants that have been diluted by a special process. The list of herbs for thyroid is elaborate and includes herbs that are natural sources of iodine, minerals, and thyroid-specific herbs like triphala, guggul and ginger.
As the alternative approach is holistic in nature, it also places a priority on improving functions of other organs that increase thyroid performance. Licorice is one such herbal remedy that helps to maintain a balance between different glands. It also helps in building energy.

Since it began in September of 2000, the West Fargo Citizen Police Academy has been very popular.
This program is designed to increase the understanding between citizens and the police through hands on training.
In addition to specialized classroom training, citizens are exposed to patrol duties with Police Department Officers. Citizens will participate in a wide range of training from classroom sessions to actual training scenarios.

However, participants will have a better understanding of the West Fargo Police Department operations and the day to day responsibilities and duties that officers are tasked with on a regular basis.

Better communitication promotes better understanding by both the officers and the citizens we serve. Perhaps no branch of government is more dependant on the cooperation of the public than your Police Department because police work has its inception in good citizenship. One of the most effective deterrents to crime is an alert public. A public who is aware of its responsibilities and willing to cooperate with their law enforcement officers.
I welcome you to join the Citizens Police Academy and share in the learning process. I believe your participation in the academy will be fun, interesting and rewarding.
Chief of Police, Arland H. Rasmussen

I put long sleeve "rash guard" shirts on my ds when he's swimming and they work great. I'm skeptical about the coconut oil idea, even if it's blocking the UV rays that burn, that doesn't mean it's blocking the UV rays that cause skin cancer.
Is your friend fair-skinned? I have several friends that laugh at how covered up I keep myself and ds, but none of them are fair-skinned irish kids like me and none of them have to make semi-annual trips to the dermatologist for mole checks.
I am familiar with the contention that eating of generous amounts of coconut oil- and other saturated but undamaged, unprocessed fats- will render you less susceptible to sun damage and its long term outcomes. Supposedly we are suffering from skyrocketing skin cancer rates partly because we've been eating processed commercial polyunsaturated fats that are unstable (oxidize quickly) and they have ended up in our skin, rendering it unable to react to sunlight in the way it is supposed to...
I just can't fig out why humans would be put on the earth w/sun, have to work and live in sun exposure when it would be so bad for us. What did people do thousands of yrs ago?
Children may tan beautifully but you are doing MAJOR damage to their skin later in life by letting them do so. They should never, ever burn or tan if you can avoid it.
I remember the suntan oil my mom used when I was little had coconut oil in it.
As for what our ancestors did... my pale skinned ancestors lived at 50 degrees latitude. It makes a substantial difference.
You'll notice that traditional people closer to the equator who were lighter skinned frequently adopted full-coverage clothing, too. The traditional dress of the arab nomads, for example...
The protective, aka "base" tan, is a myth. Sun damage is sun damage. As was said upthread, there are more likely explanations for the upswing in skin cancer. Also, where are these records that people kept of causes of death in the long-ago-days when people didn't die of skin cancer?
|More than 4 sunburns in your life greatly increase your chances of melanoma.
I dont understand this. I have learned that the tan colour is a result of increased production of the pigment melanin, which is the body`s reaction to protect cells from the UV rays - since melanin absorbs (some of) the UV.
Please explain what you mean when you write a tan is a burn :-)

"I had these made up with matching address labels to give my daughter and son-in-law when they purchased their first home. They loved them! They are simple but classy."
"Love the cards I ordered, but I was unimpressed with the packaging (or lack of) that they came in. I would have liked a box or at least a plastic sleeve to keep the cards in."
"We love this little card. It's very us and worked well for our over all theme and design. I didn't care too much for the tinyprints logo on the back being so big, and the card has a matte finish so get an ink pen not a ball point. But other than running out of room we love these cards!! They will be great for overall thanks and not just wedding thanks."
"This card was perfect for me. Simple and elegant. Very casual but the card and print was very well made thick and colors were great. I would recommend tiny prints to anyone staff is friendly and helpful. This is now my go to place for all cards and invitations!"
"Again, tiny prints comes up with the best designs! I come from a family that is Chinese, Spanish and German. This card is fun, colorful and perfect for just about any nationality! I don't need to get plain blank cards or specific language cards! Love it!"

3rd June, EVISU presented a live denim customization at EVISU BOXPARK to mark the Diamond Jubilee.
The Heritage fit, based on the classic Japanese 2001 style was inspired by vintage jeans, designed to shape at the hips. A higher waist and slightly narrower hem were specific details that made the baggy cut jeans extremely comfortable on the body and allowed them to be worn without a belt. The wool had undergone sulphur treatment to accentuate the color and fading effect. Only after wearing the denim, will a spiral crease appear. In continuing to express attention to detail, our hand-painted jeans added a unique personal touch. EVISU artist demonstrated his unique skills on the jeans, incorporated the crown as a symbol of all things British and regal. Paint was intricately applied to the plain pocket, Diamond Jubilee edition, on EVISU's
authentic vintage selvedge denim. Keeping with the theme, the selvedge was red on the left and white on the right. What's for sure was that these one-off jeans married together the EVISU brand heritage and solid brand styling, with special celebratory features that hero a day designed to stand the test of time.
The special Jubilee Edition jeans are available on evisu.com for purchase.

The Creators Of AI War Bring You...
A 2D sidescroller without a linear path. An action game with tactical combat and citybuilding. An adventure game that lets you free-roam a vast, procedurally-generated world. A Valley Without Wind defies genre stereotypes. Unlike other procedurally-generated games, you also get a logical progression in difficulty, plus helpful tips and checklists to guide your travels (should you need them).
Choose for yourself how to prepare to face the vastly stronger Overlord. Complete a variety of missions to earn new spells, and/or roam the wilds to uncover secret missions and stashes of magical crafting loot. Customize your characters with unique combinations of enchants and spells that change how you move, jump, and fight. Or rescue people and bring them back to your settlement so that they can then be sent on dispatch missions; you don't have to carry the burden of your fledgling civilization alone!
You choose how to play, and the world adapts around you.
- Travel alone or with friends across an ever-expanding world of dangerous creatures, powerful magic, high technology, and mysteries.
- You have choice. The world of Environ is procedurally generated, and lets you go anywhere you see -- including right into the overlord's keep at any time. (Good luck with that.)
- Environ is endless. When you save one continent from an overlord, a larger and more complex continent appears.
- The game adapts to how you play: as you demonstrate your proficiency, monsters and missions upgrade accordingly. Killed 100 bats? Okay, time for... bats on fire!
- Crazy amounts of character customization. Combine a multitude of spells, enchants, and equipment to create specialized character builds.
- Play as a long line of brave adventurers. It's not a question of IF your character is going to die, but WHEN. Any character that dies is permanently lost, but you keep all your inventory, enchants, and general progress in the game.
- Become a community leader. Rescue NPCs for your settlement, construct buildings for them, and improve their skill and mood -- then send them on dispatch missions to help you in return!
- Be a clever problem-solver. Challenges have more than one solution, each with its own pros and cons. You get to figure things out rather than just jumping through a set of hoops.
- Difficulty levels give exactly the challenge you want, from casual to hardcore on platforming, combat, and citybuilding independently.
- Get The Sequel Free! The actively-updated sequel is now free for all customers who bought Valley 1!
Don't Just Take Our Word For It!
You can get a demo of the latest version at any time by clicking either of the download images below. During the demo, if you're inclined you can even check out the latest post-release beta updates if you'd like to look ahead to the nightly builds rather than the latest official build!
Important! When you buy the game, you actually get both games for the price of one. All pre-existing customers of AVWW1 get Valley 2 for free, and all future customers of Valley 2 get AVWW1 as a bonus.
Add To Cart $14.99 USD

Three Selected Semifinalists for NFF Campbell Trophy
DALLAS (Oct. 2, 2013) – Three CAA Football seniors have been named semifinalists for the prestigious William V. Campbell Trophy, as announced by the National Football Foundation on Wednesday. UAlbany's Eric LaPorta, Delaware's Mike Milburn and New Hampshire's Mike MacArthur were selected as three of a record 170 candidates for the award honoring the nation's top scholar-athlete.
Nominated by their schools, which are limited to one nominee each, candidates for the awards must be a senior or graduate student in their final year of eligibility, have a GPA of at least 3.2 on a 4.0 scale, have outstanding football ability as a first team player or significant contributor, and have demonstrated strong leadership and citizenship. The class is selected each year by the NFF Awards Committee, which is comprised of a nationally recognized group of media, College Football Hall of Famers and athletics administrators.
"The NFF would like to personally congratulate each of the nominees as well as their schools on this tremendous honor," said NFF President & CEO Steven J. Hatchell. "We are extremely proud to highlight each semifinalist's achievements, which show that football players can balance between academics and athletics at the highest level. There is no question that the NFF Awards Committee will have an incredibly difficult task in selecting the finalists from among this esteemed group."
The NFF Awards Committee will select up to 16 recipients, and the results will be announced via a national press release on Thursday, October 31. Each recipient will receive an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship, and they will vie as finalists for the 2013 William V. Campbell Trophy. Each member of the 2013 National Scholar-Athlete Class will also travel to New York City to be honored Dec. 10 during the 56th NFF Annual Awards Dinner at the Waldorf=Astoria where their accomplishments will be highlighted in front of one of the most powerful audiences in all of sports. One member of the class will also be announced live at the event as the winner of the William V. Campbell Trophy.
Named in honor of Bill Campbell, the chairman of Intuit, former player and head coach at Columbia University and the 2004 recipient of the NFF's Gold Medal, the award comes with a 25-pound bronze trophy and increases the amount of the recipient's grant by $7,000 for a total post-graduate scholarship of $25,000. A total distribution of $300,000 in scholarships will be awarded at the NFF Annual Awards Dinner, pushing the program's all-time distributions to more than $10.4 million.
Launched in 1959, the NFF scholar-athlete program became the first initiative in history to award post-graduate scholarships based on both a player's academic and athletic accomplishments. The William V. Campbell Trophy, first awarded in 1990, adds to the program's mystique, having previously honored two Rhodes Scholars, a Rhodes Scholar finalist, two Heisman Trophy winners and five first-round NFL draft picks.
We invite you to join the conversation around CAA Football this season. The league is on Twitter @CAAFootball and uses the official hashtag #CAAFB. CAA Football can also be found on Facebook, Instagram and blogging on our Every Day Is Saturday official blog at caafootball.wordpress.com.

Somatoform disorders include several mental health disorders. In some, people report physical symptoms or concerns that suggest but are not fully explained by a physical disorder. In one, people are preoccupied with a slight or nonexistent defect in appearance. These symptoms or concerns are considered disorders if they cause significant distress or interfere with daily functioning.
Somatoform disorder refers to what many people used to call a psychosomatic disorder. In somatoform disorders, the physical symptoms cannot be fully explained by any underlying physical disorder. People with a somatoform disorder are not faking. They sincerely believe that they have a serious physical problem.
The somatoform disorders include body dysmorphic disorder, conversion disorder, hypochondriasis, somatization disorder, and pain disorder (see Psychogenic Pain). Children are also affected (see Somatoform Disorders in Children). Treatment varies according to which somatoform disorder a person has.
How the mind and body interact to influence health has long been discussed. The term psychosomatic expresses this interaction. Paired with disorder, the term was once used to refer to physical symptoms that appear to be caused or worsened by mental factors, rather than by a physical disorder. Now, the term somatoform disorders is used to refer to these disorders. The term does not imply that physical symptoms are imagined or are being faked (as in Munchausen syndrome). People with a psychosomatic disorder actually experience the symptoms.
The mind and body interact in many other ways.
Social and mental stress can aggravate many physical disorders, including diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, and asthma. Such stress can trigger, worsen, or prolong physical symptoms.
Stress can cause physical symptoms even when no physical disorder is present. Sometimes physical symptoms result from the body's automatic response to emotional stress, as when heart rate and blood pressure increase in response to fear.
Sometimes a physical symptom appears to be a metaphor for an emotional experience, as when people with a "broken heart" have chest pain. Or a physical symptom may reflect identification with another person's pain. For example, people may have chest pain after a family member or friend has had a heart attack.
Physical symptoms can evolve from stress or mental symptoms in anyone, including people who do not have a serious underlying mental health disorder. Such physical symptoms are often mild and transient. They can be difficult for a doctor to diagnose, and various diagnostic tests may be required to eliminate the possibility of an underlying physical disorder.
Mental factors can also influence the course of a disorder. For example, people with high blood pressure may deny having it or deny its seriousness. Denial is a defense mechanism that helps reduce anxiety. However, denial may prevent people from following their treatment plan. For example, they may not take their prescribed drugs, thus worsening their disorder.
Conversely, a physical disorder can influence or lead to a mental condition. For example, people with a life-threatening, recurring, or chronic physical disorder may become depressed. The depression, in turn, may worsen the effects of the physical disorder.
