I LOVE These Bottles! Review by rdobina
Price Value Quality
My husband and I are HUGE fans of these bottles! We've tried tons of different brands from plastic to glass and now stainless steel. These are by far the best. They do not leak at all from the ring and I love that I have the option to use our nipple of choice. We use these with the born free nipples (our son's preference) and they are absolutely perfect. Filling is a bit tricky, but you'll get the hang of it quickly! Stainless steel is superior, to me, than glass as it is light and I don't have to worry about breakage. Best of all, I don't have to worry about harmful chemicals leaching into my son's milk! I will be buying 4 for a pregnant friend soon. (Posted on 12/19/12)

Miss Rodeo New York is from Tioga County
March 3, 2013
MANSFIELD — Alexa Buckheit is a local teen making a name for herself as both a beauty queen and skilled rodeo performer competitor....
Alexa needs to be educated. Using dogs for to make money and profit is WRONG. So many dogs die in shelters that need homes and she breeding so she can buy horses for herself? Breeding should be against the law. This story makes me sick.

To carriegobernatz: Breeding should be against the law? Breeding should only be illegal when it comes to illogical people such as yourself!
You also state that she needs to be educated. I believe she is going to graduate with a four year degree and a double minor...Likely more than you have!
Good luck trying to find a Brittany Spaniel in a kennel. Also, I would be almost certain that none of the dogs she bred ended up in a kennel.
I think it's great that she is loaning the older horses to Rainbow Riders to benefit handicapped kids.
If the Sun Gazette had any sense they would take these comments down and let this girl enjoy her article!

Meme of 3 Things
Three things that scare me:
1. Bugs
2. Death
3. Darkness
Three people who make me laugh:
1. My 5 month old!
2. Laurel & Hardy
3. Mehmood
Three things I love:
1. My Family
2. Food!
3. Life!
Three things I hate:
1. Lies & deceit
2. Interfering busybodies
3. Rudeness
Three things I don't understand:
1. War
2. Unnecessary nastiness
3. Why they churn those never ending melodramas on Zee/Sony TV. Very unrealistic storylines and the garish makeup on the womenfolk in these serials is enough to paint the rest of the female population on earth a few times over!
Three things on my desk:
1. Phone
2. Camera
3. Right now, my cat, Ginger
Three things I'm doing right now:
1. Typing this
2. Cooking Sheela Pulao
3. Hoping M sleeps for a while longer, while I finish typing this!
Three things I want to do before I die:
1. Travel the world! At least where there's no civil unrest/war. That probably brings down drastically the number of places I can visit!
2. Learn another language. I started learning German when I was about 12, along with my cousin Vikranth. It was so much fun! But of course, being young and having the attention span of a gnat, our interest dwindled in no time and we stopped. Maybe I should try German again. Hmmm..
3. Write and publish a book
Three things I can do:
1. Cat whistle!
2. Play the veena (I haven't done that in years now but I hope to change that soon)
3. Eat shrimp and crabmeat! (New for me coz I always disliked seafood because of the smell. But 2 days ago, we went to Bone Fish Grill and had something called Bang Bang shrimp that tasted so good! Got adventurous and tried crab cake too! And actually liked it this time! I'd tried it once before and I got that dreaded smell then. But not this time. It was so good!)
Three things you should listen to:
1. Good music
2. Positive talk
3. Your heart
Three things you should never listen to:
1. Bad advice
2. Politicians during their election campaigns
3. Negative/unconstructive criticism
Three things I'd like to learn:
1. To swim (I have such a fear of drowning that I cannot go into water higher than my knee! Forget dunking my head under water! I think learning swimming would help but honestly, I don't think I'll last longer than a day in swimming classes!)
2. To be as calm and unruffled as my nephew, PK
3. More about Hinduism. Not in the religious sense but more about Hindu philosophy.
Three favourite foods:
1. Pad Thai
2. Onion & Potato Huli
3. Akki Rotti
Three beverages I drink regularly:
1. Coffee
2. Tea
3. Water, of course!
Three TV shows/Books I watched/read as a kid:
1. Enid Blyton's books, of course! Especially loved her school series.
2. Grimm's Fairy Tales
3. Target, a children's magazine
Three people I would like to tag...
1. Johanna of Tropical Vegetarian Family
2. Nee of Nee's Nook
3. Nandita of Saffron Trail
(Ladies, take up this tag only if you want to and whenever you can.)

Hi Vani,

- Vani said...
Seema- thank you for tagging me! I had fun doing this meme. I'm glad I have company as far as fear of drowning goes! :)

- Vani said...
Thank you, dear Viji! I should learn swimming. Apart from vanquishing my fear, it will also be good aerobic exercise! :)
Coffee- thanks! Hey, you're learning Japanese, huh? Is it tough? This meme indeed gives a glimpse of the blogger. Loved writing this :)
Lakshmik- thanks. One of the sopas is of Zee is on right now. I believe it has great viewership and that's why they keep coming up with one after another ridiculous soaps. But it gets kinda addictive too!
- January 8, 2007 at 9:28:00 PM EST
- Vani said...
Asha- Someby else told me the same thing- that seafood cooked right does not give that smell. Looking forward to your crabcake recipe! :)
Swapna- Going by your comment, I would not think that you would need to work on your english at all! It is really good! :)
Insei- welcome & thank you! I do drink beer sometimes but I don't particularly relish it, like I used to. Do come by again! :)

Hey Vani,enjoyed reading your meme.Do continue to play the veena once you start it,because even to appreciate music is a gift and many people just don't have it.I love music but regret always not ahving gotten the chance to learn it more..(I learnt only the basic in vocals).And I love your comment on the Zee/Sony tv serials and their gaudy looking actors.agree with you completely there.:)
- January 11, 2007 at 4:14:00 AM EST
- Vani said...
Vini- Thanks for your lovely comment! I hope to stick with playing the veena and playing it regularly. Have you thought of learning more vocal music?
Yeah, Zee/Sony women are heavily made up even if the scene is for sleeping! No realism at all!
- January 11, 2007 at 4:11:00 PM EST
- Anonymous said...
I love your blog Vani- you always have something out-of-the ordinary!
You said you would like to play the veena.Its one of the best hobbies to have I think! I have often wondered if you can get one that may be disassembled and reassembled- I miss playing it among other things that I miss about home!
- January 13, 2007 at 9:41:00 PM EST
- Vani said...
Hi Sucharita- Nice to know you play veena too! Yeah, I wish it could be brought here in smaller pieces and reassembled here. That would be nice!

Wednesday, July 10, 2013
Berkeley County Council approved a new set of rural fire service fees that should eventually help rural fire departments meet rising operating costs.
Justice and Public Safety Committee Chairman and council member Ken Gunn said the fee structure change was necessary.
"We have to find a way to operate more efficiently," Gunn said. "The funds created by these new fees will pay for an independent study that will help us show where money is going and how we can spend it more efficiently."
Gunn proposed an increase in the fire tax paid by property owners of vacant land, to bring them in line with what homeowners pay. That increase would pay for a study to determine how to make sure Berkeley County fire protection is where it needs to be, including whether or not a countywide fire service might be a better option. Originally, a flat $40 service fee increase across the board was considered, but scrapped in favor of this new, tiered plan.
Council compromised on a minor dispute by reducing the service fee for undeveloped property from a maximum $100 to $70 annually. The cap reduction fee matches undeveloped property with a single family home.
Gunn added the current annual budget between the county's 26 rural fire departments runs about $3.9 million. "In discussions that I've had with various people, we feel that it's time to look at what the debt issue is," he said.
Current fire service fees will increase proportionately with the amount of property owned. Berkeley County property with a house is taxed anywhere from $25 to $100 per year for fire taxes. If the property is not developed, property owners only pay between $2 and $25 a year. That means the owner of a 500-acre piece of land only pays about $25 a year in fire taxes.
"We felt that that was not appropriate, in that they were taxing houses at $70," Gunn said.
Under the new agreement the maximum service fee for undeveloped property increased to match that of a house at $70. "This will follow the current rate which is charged at eight different levels," Gunn said. "We consolidated these levels to four levels."
Council member Steve Davis opposed the increase. "You are putting the burden of the tax onto the shoulders of those who can least afford it," he said.
The motion passed 6-1 with council members Caldwell Pinckney absent and Steve Davis voting against the proposal.
Council also looked to review its current EMS working arrangement with Hanahan and Goose Creek. At present, Berkeley County shoulders the burden of a $420,000 annual cost of providing a medic unit van with insurance to each municipality. The county is also responsible for repairs. Hanahan and Goose Creek staff the medic units but all funds generated by the EMS service remain in the municipality.
"I believe we need to review these contracts due to the large amount of money being spent by the county," Gunn said. "We're putting out all this money but we aren't enjoying any of the benefits of it."
Gunn said these service contracts have been in place long before any current council member sat on county council, "The contracts can be terminated within 90 days by either party. These are longstanding contracts that have existed long before any of us have been here."
Berkeley County currently has 17 medic unit vans placed in 11 different locations, including Goose Creek and Hanahan. Two vans are used as backups.
"Our fleet is aging," Gunn said. "We received two new Type One Modular Units last year. One vehicle has 11,000 miles on it while the other has 10,000 miles already. At the rate they are being used now, their warranties will run out in six months."
Current medic units have an average odometer reading of 154,000 miles. Only one medic unit has been added over the last three years with one budgeted for the coming year. Council approved looking at adding more vehicles to help replenish the aging fleet.
"We are running the wheels off these vehicles," Gunn said.

Stem cells are cells that can be used to "repopulate" the bone marrow. They are normally found in the bone marrow and in the blood. There are several types of stem cell transplantation approaches that may be used to treat myeloma. Many myeloma centres have a general rule that stem cell transplant is not routinely offered to people above a certain age, such as 70 or 75 years. These are not hard-and-fast rules. The important thing is not your chronological age but rather your biological age – how generally healthy you are. An otherwise healthy 72-year-old may be a good candidate for ASCT, whereas a 66-year-old with multiple health problems may be a poor candidate.
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the most common. It is referred to as an "autograft" because it uses your own stem cells. Stem cells can be obtained from blood in the veins (a peripheral blood stem cell or PBSCT), your bone marrow, or even from the blood of an umbilical cord (something few adults currently have access to). A transplant consists of the following steps:
All treatments have both their risks and benefits. However, studies have shown that on average, people who undergo ASCT live longer than those who receive chemotherapy alone.
Allogeneic transplant involves collecting stem cells from someone else, usually a blood relative. The donor's cells must match the recipient's tissue type – note that this is different from blood type and if considered requires special blood testing. The transplanted donor stem cells may also help attack any myeloma cells remaining in the patient's bone marrow. This is referred to as the graft-versus-myeloma effect.
Few patients are good candidates for allogeneic transplant. It is difficult to find good donor matches and the procedure has a greater risk of complications, including infections, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD, a potentially life-threatening condition in which the donor's bone marrow attacks and destroys the patient's own tissue), and death. For these reasons, allogeneic transplant is not a standard therapy for myeloma.
There are two types of allogeneic transplant:
A syngeneic stem cell transplant refers to a transplant using stem cells taken from an identical twin. The prognosis for syngeneic transplants is better than that of allogeneic transplants; however, this is an option for only a small number of patients. A matched unrelated donor (MUD) transplant refers to a transplant using stem cells taken from a donor who is not a relative but has the same tissue type.
Tandem (double) autologous transplants are performed in some centres. For a tandem transplant, the plan is to conduct a second transplant within six months of the first one. This approach may be beneficial for people who do not have a full response to the first transplant or who have "high risk" disease, as indicated by age or genetics (cytogenetics).
An experimental approach is ASCT followed by a mini-allogeneic transplant. In this version, a patient first undergoes high-dose chemotherapy to reduce the overall number of myeloma cells, followed by an autologous transplant. Next there is a second course of moderately high-dose therapy with an allogeneic transplant of donor stem cells. The second course of therapy – in combination with the help of the allogeneic transplant –should reduce the number of myeloma cells.

Ted Black has been in Buffalo for almost two years. With every day that passes, he gets a better sense of what the Sabres mean to the community. Whether it's conversations in youth rinks, texts and emails from ticket holders or seeing 19,000 people watch the team's minor-leaguers, Black is appreciative of the connection between Buffalo and the Sabres.
"We're blessed that we have a very strong relationship with our fans," the team president said Tuesday.
The relationship has allowed the Sabres to escape the lockout relatively unscathed.
Most hockey fans were bitter during the past four months as the labor dispute between the NHL and its players' association deprived them of their sport. They threatened boycotts and abandonments from Nova Scotia to California. The Sabres, though, seem to have gotten a free pass.
"Not once did I hear somebody say, 'I don't care about you or the Sabres anymore,' " Black said in First Niagara Center. "It's funny because sometimes you hear people say, 'I'm really mad at the owners but I love that Terry Pegula.' I think the broad-brush statements that I'm mad at the league or I'm mad at hockey, when you drill down a little bit, I don't know that anyone has that personal animosity directed at our owners."
Indeed, one common sentiment during the lockout was that Pegula and the Sabres were against the work stoppage. That's false. They voted for the lockout in September, and they continued to back it in December when negotiations got ugly.
"I don't want anyone to think that we didn't vote in favor of it. We did," said Black, who refused to back a widely held belief that a handful of hard-line owners controlled everything. "I'm not going to comment on that. I can only speak to our situation, and that was our support of the commissioner was unwavering.
"We're a member club, and sometimes we need to do what we think is in the best interest of the entire league, even though it might not be in our self-interest. ... We're a member of a league, one of 30 clubs, and we voted in favor of the lockout. We're very equally glad that it's over, and we're going to join whoever else joins us in voting to end the lockout."
The vote should come today. The NHL's board of governors, including Black, will meet in New York to ratify a 10-year collective bargaining agreement. The NHL Players' Association is expected to close its vote Saturday. If the CBA votes to pass, which is all but certain, training camp will likely open Sunday and games are expected to begin Jan. 19.
"We're really looking forward to being back on the ice," Black said. "Fans' patience can be tested to the limits and sometimes broken, and we hope that that hasn't happened here in Buffalo. The relationship we have with our fans is the most important thing in our business. Certainly, the fans are entitled to an apology from everyone involved in this. On behalf of the Pegulas and the Sabres, we do apologize that the fans have to go through this.
"The thing that I'm most excited about is that this will potentially be a 10-year collective bargaining agreement, and we don't have to go through this stuff for a long time."
The Sabres were still waiting Tuesday night to hear when their season will begin. The schedule, which is expected to feature 48 intraconference games, could be released today but possibly not until Thursday. The Sabres' original calendar called for them to host the Carolina Hurricanes on Jan. 19.
"Everything is a moving target, but it looks like right now that might not be the first home game for us," Black said. "It may be the following day, Sunday. But again, it's caveat emptor at this point because I don't have anything firm, but I would like that information in the fans' hands to the extent that they need to make plans."
The Sabres need to make more arrangements. Once they learn their schedule, they have to print tickets, mail them to 15,500 season-ticket holders, contact mini-pack holders to create new bundles and sell the remaining ducats to the public.
"The bottom line is we've got to get tickets in people's hands ASAP," Black said. "We may even have to do that piecemeal, get them the first few games and get them the rest later."
There will not be a "welcome back" discount. Prices for the season were set last year. The Sabres will determine their variable pricing structure when the schedule is released. The original calendar featured one Platinum game (Dec. 26 versus Washington), 10 Golds, 15 Silvers, nine Bronzes and six Value games.
About the only thing that's certain is there will be games.
"We're back in business," Black said. "It's been nine months since we've had a game. Walking through the arena and it being warmer than normal, you're like, 'This just doesn't feel right.' It's a nice cold feeling in here today.
"I miss seeing the fans. I miss the camaraderie of the community that takes place here. I miss handing out programs and getting to say thank you to fans to their face when they come in the building.
"Fans of the sport feel very disrespected. I hope fans of the Sabres know that we always respect them, and we're going to do whatever we can to make this the best organization in sports."

UI application framework for a personal digital assistant

When the amount of PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) devices was grown, also new, PDA-specific operating systems have been developed. PDA itself limits the implementation of the operating systems; the size of the memory and the display are quite small. The graphic library is a very important part of the PDA-specific operating system. It provides the framework to implement the user interface of the PDA applications. In this master's thesis, a PDA-specific operating system and especially its graphic library was studied. The idea was to find differences between the Nokia's new Communicator product's User Interface (UI) and the UI defined in the studied graphic library. The most critical difference found was that the studied graphic library does not provide the implementation of the Commend Button Area (CBA). The CBA is an essential part of every Communicator application's UI. As a conclusion, the main objective of this thesis was to find an implementation for the CBA.As a result, a new way to implement the CBA was found. Implementing a graphical component is an efficient way to learn a graphic library. Still, the studied graphic library is a very large one and it takes a lot of time and patience to learn it thoroughly. Again, the main idea in using a graphic library is not a pedant knowledge of the software, but to know the main principles. Then it is easier to find the wanted component and also it is easier to locate the error in a problem case. /Kir10

To avoid disruption of business district traffic during the busiest hours, the Avenue will be closed from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. daily to through traffic.

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- With the bars on Flagler Avenue playing host to the New Year's Eve festivities, the city's other heavily invested CRA street was as dead as a door knob, a far cry from the hustle and bustle during traditional business hours.

I wished that everyone would sleep until noon, or maybe all day long.
Today was one of those quick! pile the kids in the car in a hurry to drive to Starbucks kinda day.
This morning was a flurry of tearing the house apart looking for the iron to press my husband's dress shirt. I don't do ironing. That's why we have the Dry Cleaners. Last time I used it was for a craft project. I found it in the closet under a stack of beach towels.
The kids wanted to play outside and taking my book out there wasn't working, couldn't keep enough eye balls on the baby, so I decided to grab the gardening gloves I bought last week (or two weeks ago?) I had hoped the act of buying these gloves would be just the nudge I needed to actually weed the flower bed, or the big pile of hot mess outside my window or whatever you'd call it. Right now it's a bunch of prickly weeds and sticks and I swear there is an evergreen growing in there now.
About ten minutes in I finger-swept a rock out of Ivy's mouth and I had Noah fetch the Yellow Pages. I am now waiting on a call from the professionals.
I'm so bummed about my camera. I hate that it's like all I have on my mind. So stupid. I'm antsy about which one to buy next and I keep daydreaming that someone wants to upgrade and will sell me theirs. (Anyone?) And Ivy has a new dress to wear but I can't photograph her in it and do you know how this tortures my soul?
Today I panicked thinking Gray had finally done gone and run away (today I was "not the best Mom ever" because the fair ended.) He wasn't outside, not in the playroom or down in the basement. He was in his bed napping, of course, where I put him.
I swept the kitchen after they were all in bed tonight and I sighed, thankful for our home no matter how disarrayed. It's a shelter. For us.
Who am I to lament the day I did not create? I only live in it. I am so blessed to live in it.
In a couple moments I will grab that book and read what I can until I can't keep my eyes open anymore and then it will be tomorrow. Another day.

Faculty & Staff
Steve Smith, M.Div.
Chair of Religion and Philosophy/Assistant ProfessorPhone: 641-585-8253Fax: 641-585-8194
Email: email@example.com
M.Div. Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota
BA University of Minnesota—Duluth
Professor Smith's great academic passion is bringing the theology of Martin Luther to bear upon our modern life and world. He firmly believes Luther's thought is extraordinarily poignant and useful for our time. Connected to this passion is Professor Smith's commitment to helping students examine themselves in order to hear their many callings in life and to answer those calls well.
For certain official Waldorf events, he serves as campus pastor.
Professor Smith is also the assistant men's hockey coach for the college.
Apart from the college, Professor Smith teaches in the Lay School of Ministry for the Western Iowa Synod, of the ELCA. In this program he has taught an introduction to the Bible and he is currently teaching basic Lutheran theology.
Playing hockey and being a violinist are other things Professor Smith is known for.
Teaching Philosophy:
I believe that education should transform people. Thus, I structure my courses to challenge traditional ways of thinking and ask my students to think in new ways, to see the world and their place in it in deeper ways. To facilitate such an educational experience, I believe it is vital for classes to not only involve discussions between the professor and students, but also a dialogue among students. Occasionally, I incorporate rather unorthodox activities in class to make a point or to make something memorable. I am also convinced that learning can be fun and that laughter enhances learning.

The 5 Creepiest Things Ever Done With a Fake Medical Degree
No one likes going to see the doctor, unless they live in the pornoverse, in which case every trip to the doctor is as awesome as ordering a pizza or picking up a hitchhiker. "Oh, doctor, I seem to have broken my wiener, and the only cure is factory reject D-cups!" For the rest of us, the doctor is a terrible, cold-handed individual with stirrups and specula and accusing glances that you only see when you're feeling like crap and who sometimes could end your meeting with the words "Yours is the first bum I've had a finger in today."
Less well-known and less better (heretofore known as "worse") are doctors who got their degree from "I don't have a degree." These fakers like to pretend to be doctors and will make you as uncomfortable as a real doctor, but with the added threat of not knowing their asses from grape jelly, and thus having a whole boatload of potential to kill you or just molest you for shits and giggles.
#5. Boob Inspector
I want to play a game. The rules of this game are simple. Find the nearest boobs that belong to someone you don't know. Tell that person you're a doctor, and as part of your doctorly duties, you need to feel those boobies. Come back here and let us all know how it panned out for you.
There will be one time in everyone's life when the line "Can I touch your boobs?" will work as an opening volley to a stranger. Everyone gets one; try not to miss it. Most times, however, you'll get a dirty look, spit in your eye, or a punch in the kisser. The resulting bloody nose is well-earned, and hopefully it taught you a lesson.
Because the universe enjoys a paradox, the boobie-touching rules don't always apply, and sometimes you get a person like Phillip Winikoff. I need you to close your eyes and still somehow read this. Close one eye. Now picture this -- Winikoff was a 76-year-old man who looked like that old fart from Up! after a weekend of drinking schnapps. Posing as a door-to-door doctor, a thing that is not a thing, Winikoff managed to go to not one, but two different women in an apartment complex, explain that he was in the neighborhood offering free breast exams, and then give them breast exams in their homes, with a quick follow-up gloveless crotch exam tossed in for good measure.
It's stories like this that make you want to just write Bill Gates a letter and ask for a million bucks, because who knows, it could work, right? And in case you think it's a fluke, it's worth noting that Winikoff isn't the only one to pull this off. A transgendered fake doctor going by the name Berlyn Aussieahshowna managed to convince several women in nightclubs in Idaho to get breast exams by claiming that she was a plastic surgeon. She was caught after the examinees called the number she gave them to schedule appointments and discovered that she was not a doctor there. This story is remarkable in that someone using the worst fake name ever managed to get people to concede to breast exams in nightclubs, and for apparently confirming that Idaho has nightclubs.
#4. Butt Implants
In the last year or so, there seems to have been a curious pattern of people paying just any ol' scrub to put things in their ass. Now, historically, there's a bit of a precedent for paying people to put things in your ass, but it works a little different from this. In this instance, the victims are trying to get ass implants, arguably the lamest of all things to go in someone's ass. But rather than go to a certified ass implant professional, these people are taken by the idea of discount home ass implantation being a good thing, and they let a stranger start injecting them with shit. What kind of shit do unlicensed, non-real doctors inject into people's asses? So far the list includes silicone, cement, super glue, tire sealant, mineral oil, and bathroom caulk. Can you imagine? Paying someone to put caulk in your ass? The mind boggles. And yes, I'm really proud of that joke, because when am I ever going to be able to legitimately do that again?
Huffington Post
Oh God, Billy Barty, we'll get you out of there! We haven't forgotten you!
You could argue that maybe these people didn't know what was being injected, so we shouldn't judge them too harshly, and maybe they're not so bright as to realize that discount surgery in someone's house probably isn't the best idea they've ever had. But all that aside, if they'd just looked at the ass of the woman who was performing the procedure -- something of an amorphous bugle that made her look like she was forever caught in the midst of pooping out an entire midget -- they should have figured out that something bad was afoot. A healthy booty is attractive to some people, but an ass that looks like Billy Barty with his ankle clamped in someone's asshole trapped in a net of yoga pants looks like exactly what I just described.
#3. Fake Cancer Boobies
If I may go back to boobs for a moment (and I think I may), there's more than one way to dupe a lady into showing off her goodies. For instance, tell her you're successful Internet comedian Soren Bowie and include a photo of his smiling face. I do that every weekend and have been gifted with more trailer park proposals than you can even imagine. If the real Soren ever goes to the Heartland, he's got a lot of horny alcoholic ladies who work in factories to make amends to. But another way to see a woman's jubblies is to harness the power of fear. Tell her that, in your capacity as a doctor (pretend to be a doctor, incidentally), you have noticed that she has cancer. Of the boob. But, because you're a cancer boobologist, you can treat her terrible condition via a top secret yet wholly effective procedure known as sucking on dem boobies. Also, as a backup, maybe use some kind of probe that makes ozone. Ozone in the crotch cures cancer, right? Probably.
Operating out of a shack in Wales, which is like Britain's "the South," 77-year-old Reginald Gill did all of this, claiming to be a military doctor who was offering alternative therapies to people who didn't want to use traditional hospitals because real doctors are so often forgetful about sucking their patients' breasts and/or probing them with whatever random gadgets they have in their dirty Welsh basements.
In reality, Gill had been a caterer in the army and had no medical training, and book research tells us that sucking has yet to effectively cure any form of cancer, boobish or otherwise. Gill was a dirty fraud, and the result of his dirty fraudulence was eight years in prison.
