I525), degenerates at the moment of leave-taking from the Green Knight, his erstwhile host, to the level of a churl capable of abusing the ladies of that knight's household (11.2411 -28).

Making a difference in tenth-century politics: King Athelstan's sisters and Frankish queenship
In the early years of the tenth century several Anglo-Saxon royal women, all daughters of King Edward the Elder of Wessex (899-924) and sisters (or half-sisters) of his son King Athelstan (924-39), were despatched across the Channel as brides for Frankish and Saxon rulers and aristocrats.

Retrouvaille was featured in the July/August 2015 issue of Northwest Catholic Magazine in an article titled, "Healing a Hurting Marriage" by Dr. Sarah Bartel. The article features an interview with Mick and Deanna Maddock of our Seattle ministry.
Is your relationship coming apart? Is there little or no meaningful communication? Are you considering separation or divorce? Are you unsure of what to do?
Without attention and care, marriages wither. Couples slowly and quietly drift apart or are torn apart by unkind words and actions. Many are married in name only, or just stay together "for the sake of the kids." For many, it has been years since they knew the joy of a loving relationship.
But it doesn't have to be that way. You can change! Your spouse can change! Retrouvaille of Seattle offers a three-part program that helps couples put the pieces back together again to rebuild strong, loving relationships. Rediscover the passion and the joy of a healthy, fulfilling marriage! Call today.

SEATTLE — Things couldn't have started any better for Rutgers.
After winning the opening coin toss, coach Kyle Flood elected to receive to try to strike first against Washington State. Flood started the season 1-0 on his decisions, as Gary Nova hit Leonte Carroo with a 78-yard touchdown bomb on the first play from scrimmage.
The good times continued to roll on Washington State's first possession, as new cornerback Justin Goodwin, who moved from running back two weeks ago, intercepted a Connor Halliday pass.
The defense came up with a big fourth-and-2 stop at their 6-yard line thanks to a strong tackle by Johnathan Aiken and Lorenzo Waters. But the momentum was short-lived, as Nova and running back Desmon Peoples got their signals crossed and Washington State's Tana Pritchard intercepted an errant pass.
The Cougars had first-and-goal from the 2, but the defense again was up to the task. Defensive tackle Darius Hamilton had a key sack, which forced Washington State to settle for a field goal, cutting Rutgers' lead to 7-3 late in the first quarter.
Rutgers answered with a 12-play, 75-yard, 6:31 scoring drive capped by a 1-yard TD plunge by Paul James to take a 14-3 lead. James was brilliant in the first half, racking up 110 yards on 13 carries.
Washington State closed to 14-10 on a 5-yard touchdown pass from Halliday to Isiah Myers in front of Goodwin. The big play of the drive was a 64-yard pass to Dom Williams, who beat Steve Longa in coverage and broke a Waters tackle on the play.
James came right back, blasting around the left end on a sweep and kicking it into second gear on a 56-yard TD run to give the Knights' a 21-10 lead with 4:58 left in the half. James received great blocks from fullback Michael Burton, wide receiver Andrew Turzilli and left guard Kaleb Johnson on the run.
Halliday really settled in on the next drive, picking apart Rutgers' zone defense. The Knights spent most of the first half with three defensive linemen, two linebackers, two cornerbacks and four safeties on the field. Halliday found a wide open Vince Mayle for a 26-yard touchdown when cornerback Nadir Barnwell and Aiken had a coverage breakdown.
Rutgers went three-and-out on its next drive and was lucky to get to the locker room holding its 21-17 lead. Washington State got the ball back with 24 seconds left and Halliday immediately completed a 29-yard pass. A 12-yard pass to Jamal Morrow, coupled with a mind-boggling personal foul by Julian Pinnix-Odrick, put the ball on Rutgers' 33 with one second remaining. Erik Powell's 50-yard field goal attempt at the gun clanged off the upright.
Rutgers went into the locker room with a 21-17 lead. The Scarlet Knights will need to tighten up their pass coverage in the second half. Halliday completed 20-of-29 passes for 289 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the first half.
Offensively, they need to continue to pound the rock with James until Washington State proves it can stop the run. After the long bomb to Carroo, Nova struggled. He finished 5-for-10 for 107 yards with a touchdown and interception.

Sure pal.
You do realize that your boy Barry only won with 51% of the vote and that only 44% of people approve of his performance.
So your toon is a joke.
Ya sure, but he is president.
It is a long way to 2014 and a lot of things can happen, and they had better for if the elections were held now it would be a democrat congress.
For that reason alone the republicans had best do some drastic changing…and fast.
Ya know there are more elections to vote on other than president. Ever wonder why the Teapublicans are still in Congress?
However, it is a very secure district and because of Citizens United and the way districts are drawn, Republicans are more afraid of other Republicans than they are of Democrats. There are "districts" drawn in such a way as to allow a person to walk from one district, through a second district, and then enter a third district while only walking a block and a half.
There is importance in making sure that no one social structure, city/town/village/farming community, dominates political opinion and individual rights in a state, and both parties are equally guilty of gerrymandering in arrogantly abusive ways, but we are electing to office people who are unable to pass the same tests we require of new citizens to our nation. We are putting people into office whose understanding of science as the rest of the world sees it leaves them unable and unwilling to prepare our children to compete on the world stage.
It is ok for you to believe the earth is 7000 years old, but if the Creator went to all of the trouble to make it look as if it's trillions of years old, and if the math and science used by the rest of the world for invention and innovation is the standard against which we must compete, shouldn't we give that creation some credit and play in the playing field we've been given?
Our atheist commentators may take issue with this idea, but telling them we should have more people willing to back science is "preaching to the choir". It is to those who are convinced that their religious beliefs are the only things that should be taught and practiced these words are meant.
We need open minds in order to reclaim the place our past students…those of YOU who are in your 60s +…. that helped us become great.
Open minds, educated minds, and open hearts can make us an exceptional people once more, instead of a nation of narrow minded people with a few exceptional people that are part of the population.
Sure, they're "well-informed voters" when they agree with you, but "low-information idiots" when they don't.
To you and the Pep Boys Mechanic:
I was addressing the toon by Jim Moron.
He portrays the Republicans as a tiny minority painted into a small corner in the "White South".
Obviously in his lib world everybody loves Barry and his leftist ideas except for a small gerrymandered "district" of white Southerners. I'm sure he thinks they're racist too or else he wouldn't have injected race, but that's what simpletons do.
Obviously there is a HUGE part(if not majority) of the US population that thinks Barry has us on the wrong path.
Thus the 44% approval rating.
Look at the toon, the elephant is painting himself OUT of the corner he put himself in.
Your keen skills of observation is why your posts are so eagerly awaited.
Just a question: Why did roughly 98% of all Blacks vote for Obama?
Say goodnight, Dumb(o).

Whidbey dermatologist held on $75,000 bail | Update
A judge set bail for Dr. Donald "Russell" Johnson at $75,000 during a preliminary hearing in Island County Superior Court Thursday afternoon.
The 51-year-old dermatologist appeared in handcuffs and orange jail clothes. He was represented in the hearing by a public defense attorney.
Judge Vickie Churchill found there was probable cause to hold Johnson on suspicion of two counts of assault in the second degree and a single count of harassment / threats to kill.
Prosecutors charged Johnson with the three counts Friday; the charges were all filed as domestic-violence related. If convicted of the charges, he could face from 13 to 17 months in prison under the standard sentencing range.
Johnson posted bail Saturday and left jail.
At the hearing Thursday, Senior Deputy Prosecutor Eric Ohme argued that Johnson should be held on a significant amount of bail because of the risk he'll intimidate the witnesses or flee the area. He cited a story the News-Times broke this summer after Johnson abruptly closed his clinics in Coupeville and Anacortes and abandoned his patients because of massive financial problems.
Ohme said the troubled doctor tried to strangle or suffocate his girlfriend on on two occasions and that she is extremely fearful of him.
"He said he was going to kill her and kill himself," Ohme said.
Johnson's attorney, Peter Simpson of Coupeville, argued that his client should be released on his personal recognizance. He said there was no evidence of injury to the alleged victim, though Ohme countered that a deputy did photograph bruising.
Simpson said the doctor has lived on Whidbey for 12 years and is a member of the Methodist Church in Oak Harbor. He claimed Johnson is working at a medical clinic in Anacortes.
Churchill, however, agreed with the prosecution, pointing out that Johnson allegedly hid from law enforcement. She set Johnson's bail at $75,000, which was Ohme's recommendation.
Deputies with the Island County Sheriff's Office were looking for Johnson since the alleged assault occurred at the couple's home on Cornet Bay Road, but found him back at the home in the afternoon of Sept. 7. The alleged victim is identified as his girlfriend, Marianne Baker.
According to the affidavit of probable cause, Baker told detectives that things had been tense between the two of them because of problems with his failed medical practice, his drinking and bouts of depression.
Baker said she had been away from the home for a couple of nights, but returned in the morning of Sept. 6. She claimed Johnson pinned her to the bed and told her "he was going to kill her then himself," according to the report written by Detective Ed Wallace with the Island County Sheriff's Office.
"Baker stated she was pleading for her life when Johnson let go of her wrists and placed both hands around her neck squeezing hard enough that she couldn't breathe or scream for help," Wallace wrote.
The report states that Baker became light-headed but continued to squirm until Johnson fell off the bed. She crawled to the patio door, went outside and screamed for the neighbors to call 911, according to the report.
Johnson followed her, got back on top of her and shoved a cloth belt from his robe into her mouth. He then covered the woman's nose and mouth with his hand, causing her to have trouble breathing and nearly pass out. She continued struggling, so he took the cloth belt from her mouth, wrapped it around her neck and attempted to choke her.
Baker claimed he looked up at the neighbor's house and apparently saw something, so he let go of the belt and went back inside the home, Wallace wrote. Baker ran to a neighbor's home; the neighbor called 911. Johnson fled the residence in his Lexus SUV prior to deputies arriving.
Later that day, a caller reported seeing Johnson going back inside the house. Deputies responded and heard someone fleeing through blackberry bushes, but didn't see him. They found his car parked about a quarter of a mile from the home. Then on Sept. 7, detectives went back to the house to look for Johnson and found him in the downstairs bedroom. He was arrested without incident.
The next day, Johnson asked to speak to Wallace at the jail. The doctor claimed he had been verbally aggressive with Baker because she was having an affair, but denied threatening to kill her or touching her at all.
Court documents filed in Island and Skagit counties indicate that Johnson has been under a great deal of stress since his wife, a Langley resident, filed for divorce early this year. The divorce filing claimed Johnson married Baker without divorcing his wife. The court records include a copy of an online marriage license search in Skagit County that shows the couple have a marriage license number, but no marriage date.
In addition, Johnson is under investigation by the Washington State Medical Quality Assurance Commission for patient abandonment, was sued by his former landlord and owes large amounts of back taxes to the IRS, according to court documents.

With much of the NFL regular season complete, it's time to begin discussing postseason awards—in particular, MVP.
But how do you define the Most Valuable Player?
Some people vote based on most impressive stats, while others vote based on the impact the player has on their team.
Before you call me crazy as you read more of this, it would be helpful to take a minute as ask yourself: What are my qualifications for MVP?
To be fair, I'll give you mine.
I personally think an MVP should first be measured by his worth on his team. Where would that team be without that him? An MVP doesn't have to be the person with the most impressive stats, but rather the person who is most important to his team. In the event of two players who are extremely close, I then think about things like marketability, character, leadership—but more often than not there is a clear choice for me.
That being said, my NFL MVP Top Five would shape up like this:
1. Brett Favre
2. Tom Brady
3. Tony Romo
4. Terrell Owens
5. Randy Moss
I realize that Brady is the popular choice for this award because his numbers are Madden-esque. However, I give the nod to Brett Favre because of how valuable he is to the Packers. He has led his team to a 10-2 record despite having few offensive weapons. He's a three-time NFL MVP and happens to be having (perhaps arguably) his best season of his career.
Brady gets a very, very slight edge on Romo. Both of these guys have fantastic weapons to throw to and both play on great teams. I think Romo is better at overcoming his team's mistakes, mostly because the Cowboys make more mistakes than the Patriots. Brady hasn't really been put in a position to overcome tremendous adversity except for the fourth quarter drive against the Ravens.
The downside to Romo is that he has a tendency to not give up on plays that he should just declare a loss and makes poor decisions that put the team in difficult situations. Even though he usually pulls the team out of trouble, he has to be penalized for putting them there in the first place. He's improving as the season continues, but it's enough to make up the difference between Brady and Romo in my mind.
If I had formed this list a month ago, Moss would easily be ahead of Owens, and possibly Romo. However, Owens has really been on a tear since being named a captain and Moss has taken a few plays off. He hasn't been as enthusiastic about running full out as a decoy on some plays and that isn't acceptable for a front runner to the MVP.
When Owens and Moss are right they are truly game changers and we've been treated to couple of the most incredible seasons for WRs, so they have to be included in the discussion for MVP.
Extremely strong cases could be made for all five of the guys.

the history of china is also one of imperialistic conquest and the country is named China because out of several warring kingdoms, the emperor of Chin, Chin Sua Wa Di (sp?) conquered and united them into an empire in his likeness Chin'a or China.
They then proceeded to take over everyone around them regardless of language religion and so forth.
in the Ming Era they took boat rides around the world demanding tribute from 'barbarians'
they currently use repressive brute force to control territory that isn't chinese by history culture of ethnicity such as the majority of mongola (the country you look at on the map is outer mongolia, Inner mongolia is in china), tibet, and all the western ones in the Gobi desert and beyond.
they out populate all these ppl, but they also out populate any other ppl,
i think you've realised this as it is BEYOND common knowledge and are just arguing cause your afraid of 'losing' to TSA.

white ppl turned white cause its what makes sense in their environment and black ppl stayed black cause it's what makes sense in their environment.
even nordic dogs have blue eyes(a sign on low melanin).
it's not cause they're made during Yacub's 5th period woodshop class, but cause they, like all ppl, adapted to where they're at.

Being indoors too much might affect your daily required dosage.
As for your observation of thier being as much sunlight int he north. No.
The sun hits different parts of the world with angled streams and not direct streams of light. Shorter days as well.
They could learn something about human evolution with trees that grow in different parts of the world i assume.

Ure from states right?
I live way more north than any of the American States are...
In north europe.
...The pic shows exactly how the midsummer midnights look here. Some nights are even more brighter.
But yeah im not saying theres nothing else to it
just saying that theres unique things to light skin.
"The sun hits different parts of the world with angled streams and not direct streams of light. Shorter days as well."
True true. Shorter days during winter. really short, u cant allmost regonize night from day here during winter lol

this is because lower uv radiation levels require more radiation to be absorbed. dairy products also supplement vitamin D.
how long does it take for a person with dark skin to convert to light skin due to lack of exposure?
black africans have been living in europe for 1000s of years and are still dark.
but melanin isn't all about skin color.
does the need for vitamin D outweigh the need for serotonin and melatonin?
is this trade off a logical or beneficial mutation when a change in diet would be sufficient?
especially when you factor in the "odd" daily cycles of day/night, knowing that serotonin and melatonin regulate natural cycles.
TSA we have moved on from your frivolity, you figure out why what you tried to prove is wrong.
hint: figure out what makes a person chinese then research the econ gains that the various nations contribute to the sino-american system you invented.

Stylemaster in inhumanely dim.
what the fuck is sino-american economic system?
cheap toys?
you said every nation can't follow the american system of "stepping on other ppls toes" to get what they want.
i said, every nation steps on peoples toes to get that why want
you said china didn't, it's isolationist
i said china did, as the country China, is han china, or essential the Chin section of han china, taking over everyone around it.
since korea, mongolia, vietnam, tibet and various other locations have a history of chinese imperialism, i really don't see how difficult it is to sink the one in.
those ppl you mentioned, are, indeed, chinese, not because they're ethnically chinese, but cause they're members of a chinese nation build on the kingdom of Chin, taking over it's neighbors and making them chinese, which would equalify as being a toe stepper on'er
the system of dicking your way to the top is not an american invention, and you, again, can't find a country that didn't dick its way to the top.
again, not difficult to sink in, i'd find examples if i were you because the next conversation in line after this one is how toothpaste n microwaves are killing the black community's melanin(soul).

^^Scientific blogs by brain scientists are hilarious to you?
I can honestly say man that I felt what u do because at first I was looking at a lot of this as a bunch of bullshit. Basically I looked at it like black propaganda to uplift people in dire state.

Melanin Pigments in Human Pineal Gland
Author(s): Koshy, S. & Vettivel, S.
Vol. 50, No. 2 (2001-07 - 2001-12)
Department of Anatomy, Christian Medical College, Vellore, India
Masson-Fontana staining confirmed the presence of melanin pigments in the human adult pineal gland. In 1-10 years age group, the pigments were present within the pinealocytes. In 11-20 years age group also, the pigments were in the pinealocytes only. In 21-30 year age group, the pigments were in the pinealocytes and appeared in the stroma in the areas of glial fibre predominance. In 31-40 years age group onwards, the pigments were present, in addition to pinealocytes, in the stroma among the fibres. As age advanced, the amount of extracellular pigments gradually increased, extracellular pigments were more concentrated, and the extracellular pigments were more clearly seen. There was no gender difference in the amount of melanin pigments. The background comparative anatomy also is discussed.
Key words: melanocyte, melanin, pinealocytes, pineal gland
Melanocytes are melanin-pigment synthesizing pigment cells derived from neural crest and widely distributed in vertebrates. They are stellate cells with long processes with numerous dark brown or black granules of melanin in their cytoplasm. There function is generally, to prevent light from reaching adjacent cells. In humans, they are present in the epidermis and its appendages, oral epithelium, some mucous membranes, uveal tract of eye ball, parts of middle and internal ear, and parts of leptomeninges in the base of brain. The cells of retinal pigment epithelium, neurons in locus ceruleus and substantia nigra also synthesize melanin. Melanins are high molecular weight polymers, attached to a structural protein, to form melanoproteins, and in the humans, there are two classes, the brown-black eumelanin and red-yellow pheomelanin, both derived from a substrate tyrosine (Dyson 1995).
Pineal gland (epiphysis cerebri) was once considered to be a phylogenic relic, a vestige of a dorsal third eye, and of little functional significance; the mammalian pineal is now regarded and accepted as an endocrine gland of major regulatory importance, modifying the activity of the adenohypophysis, neurohypophysis, endocrine pancreas, parathyroids, adrenal cortex, adrenal medulla, and gonads. (de Vries and Kappers 1971; Klein 1978; Haulica and Coeulescu 1981; Reiter 1983, 1985, 1987; Malendowicz 1985; Dyson 1995).
The pineal in the big brown bat is pigmented and intensified with constant darkness (Bhatnagar and Hilton 1994). Pigmented cells in the cat pineal gland show a preferential localization at the ventral surface of the pineal gland near its distal end and the pineal pigment is melanin (Calvo et al. 1992). Presence of pigment cells is a constant characteristic in the adult dog pineal gland; the pigment is melanin (Calvo et al. 1988). Embryo ovine pineal gland has pigment cells containing melanin (Regodon et al. 1998). Pineal glands of neonates consist of cords of dark, nucleated cells, which are frequently pigmented (Min et al. 1987). In the human adult, melanin pigments gradually accumulate within the parenchymal cells with increasing age in males, whereas in females, the maximum pigmentation is noticed in 30-40 year age group and then there was a fall (Tapp and Huxley 1972). The present study was done to find whether or not the human adult pineal gland showed gender difference and age changes in the amount of melanin pigments.
Materials and Methods:
Forty pineal glands were collected from South Indian subjects (31 males and 9 females) who were accident deads, within five to six hours after death during autopsy. There were no histological postmortem changes. Age of the subjects ranged from one to eighty years. Age groups of the subjects were 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 5160, 61-70, 71-80 years.
Pineal glands were removed from the brain along with the superior colliculus so that the pineal recess of the third ventricle was also included. These were put in Bouin's fluid. After fixation, the specimens were processed for light microscopy. Eight-micron serial sections were cut and stained. Staining methods used were (i) haematoxylin and eosin, (ii) Masson-Fontana method for melanin, and (iii) Mallory's phosphotungstic acid haematoxylin method for neuroglial cells and nerve fibres. The arrangement of the parenchyma and stroma was observed. Melanin pigments were visually studied for location and quantity with regard to gender and age.
Pineal gland had a well defined capsule (piamater) and septa extended from the capsule into the parenchyma dividing it into complete and incomplete lobules. Parenchyma consisted of light and dark pinealocytes and glial cells. Corpora arenacea were a constant feature (Koshy and Vettivel 2001). Melanin pigments were present in the pinealocytes and in the stroma. In 1-10 years age group, the parenchyma was highly cellular, predominantly of pinealocytes. Within the pinealocytes, melanin pigments were present. There were no extra cellular pigments. In 11-20 years age group, the parenchyma was highly cellular with the presence of pinealocytes. Pigments were present as in 1-10 year group, within the pinealocytes. In 21-30 years age group, abundant dark melanin pigments were inside the pinealocytes and in the areas of glial fibre predominance. The pinealocytes were not abundant as in 11-20 age group but extracellular pigments were in the transition areas from pinealocytes-predominance to glial fibre-predominance (Fig. 1). In pineal glands of higher age groups, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70 years, melanin pigments were seen as clear granules, more among the fibres. The pinealocytes also had melanin pigments within them. The extra cellular pigments were more clearly seen as age advanced. There was no gender difference in the amount of melanin pigments. A gradual increase in melanin, more concentrated extracellularly, occured as age advanced.
Pineal gland projects from the roof of diencephalon. A recess of third ventricle extends into its stalk. The pineal was formerly considered a vestigial organ with no function but now it is known to be an active endocrine gland. Its activity is influenced by the daily cycle of light and dark and it is a link between environment and physiology of an organism (individual). It responds to annual changes in day-length and influences gonadal activity in seasonal breading species but has, though less apparent, significant effect on the reproductive system of other species that breed throughout the year. Its innervation is exclusively via sympathetic fibres that originate in the superior cervical ganglion and enter the cranial cavity accompanying blood vessels supplying the brain (Fawcet 1994).
Paired eyes of vertebrates are organs to focus a clear image upon a film of sensory cells known as retina, and these cells convey the impulses to the brain, giving their interpretation of intensity, colour, or movements. In some primitive vertebrates, there are also two different median organs, which serve as receptors for light, although not necessarily to obtain visual images. There are indications, from elasmobranch embryology, that the prevertebrates possess a metameric series of paired visual organs on the roof of the head; most of them rapidly disappear as the lateral eyes become perfect; but two pairs of dorsal eyes still hang on, almost to the cyclostome level. In lamprey, one member of each of these supposed pairs might be seen as a small bulb, attached by a stalk, to the root of the diencephalon. The anterior one (parietal stalk) does not quite reach, but the posterior (pineal eye) does reach a semitransparent spot in the skin of the head. Possibly, both bodies were present in primitive amphibian, for in frogs, the pineal is found, nearly reaching the skin; yet in some modern reptiles (sphenodon and lizards) a parietal eye is present, with the pineal redued. Among early vertebrates, the evidence of these organs is simply a foramen in the roof of the skull in ostracoderms, some placoderms, crossopterygians, primitive amphibians, and some of the early reptiles, including Therapsids. It usually lies between the parietal bones. The parietal eye of the Sphenodon is well covered, and no function has been demonstrated, but it contains a retina and a lens; the neurosensory retinal cells synapse with neurons, which go directly down the stalk. In birds, the pineal stalk is reduced but often distinct and with a complicated structure distally. Mammals have a minute epiphysis (pineal organ), which has been suspected to have an endocrine function (Eaton 1960).
In most fish, and amphibians, the pineal organ is a single sac. In the more primitive fish, tail-less amphibians and lizards, there is a second component, the parapineal organ or parietal organ, which arises as an anterior evagination of the pineal organ or as a separate outgrowth of the roof of diencephalon. In frogs, parapineal component lies just beneath the epidermis on the dorsum of the head, where it can be seen. Numerous nerves and nerve endings are found in the pineal organs of lower vertebrates. Pineal organs of lower vertebrates reveal presence of photoreceptor cells that resemble those of the mammalian retina in having a lamellar portion of the apex and a receptor synapse at the base. The most elaborate pineal is found in the primitive lizard, Sphenodon. It contains a simple retina, consisting of photoreceptors backed by supporting cells that contain pigment, and its parietal component includes a lens-like structure. It thus constitutes a vestigial parietal eye. Probably, the parietal eye of the Sphenodon was functional because of the large size of the pineal foramen in the fossil reptiles (Fawcett 1994).
Pineal gland contains cords and follicles of pinealocytes and neuroglial cells among which ramify blood vessels and nerves. Pinealocytes form the pineal parenchyma; neuroglial cells, partially separating the pinealocytes, are like astrocytes. Ultrastructure of human fetal pinealocytes indicates their secretory function in early intrauterine life (Moller 1974). As in adults, they contain all the appropriate organelles together with abundant microfilaments, microtubules, and a few cilia with a 9 + 0 microtubular pattern. Cilia of this type are associated with secretory cells in other endocrine glands (Barnes 1961; Andersen et al. 1970). Extending from the cell body are one or more processes (Knight et al 1973), which end in terminal buds near blood vessels or ependymal cells of the pineal recess. The terminal buds contain electron dense cored vesicles, which store monoamines and polypeptide hormones (Sheridan and Sladek 1975), release of which requires sympathetic innervation. The polypeptide hormones combine with specific protein carriers, termed neuro-epiphysins (Lukaszyk and Reiter 1975). They are released by exocytosis together with exocytotic debris. When released, the complex dissociates, hormones being exchanged for calcium ions. The calcium-carrier complex so formed is, in the pineal, deposited concentrically around exocytotic debris as corpora arenacea or brain sand. It is often supposed that the pineal gland atrophies with age, corpora arenacea being a sign of atrophy; on the contrary, these corpuscles may indicate continued secretion. There was no evidence of pineal degeneration in the elderly (Wildi and Frauchiger 1965).
The pinealocytes of mammals evolved from the photoreceptor cells of the pineal organ of primitive vertebrates. In the course of their evolution from light sensitive elements to endocrine cells, the region of the cell, specialised for photoreception was lost, together with the sensory nerves connecting it to other regions of the brain. The synaptic ribbons of mammalian pinealocytes may be vestiges of the special synapses that are characteristic of photoreceptors. Whether they have acquired an alternate function, related to secretion, is not known (Fawcett 1994). Pinealocytes of some mammals contain synaptic ribbons, perhaps involved in transmission; vesicles near them contain neurotransmitters such as - aminobutyric acid (Krstic 1976). Similar arrangements of organelles occur in mammalian retinal photoreceptors and simpler submammalian photoreceptors, suggesting that mammalian pinealocytes are derived from photoreceptors (Kappers 1976; Relkin 1976). Transient similarities exist between pinealocytes and retinal photoreceptors in neonatal rats (Zimmerman and Tsi 1975).
Melanin pigments are associated with light and are found in association with photoreceptors. This association, probably, exists with photoreceptor cells-derived pinealocytes also. It is possible that the pigments, corresponding to those (rodopsin) in photoreceptors and those in the supporting cells in Sphenodon pineal gland, are in the pinealocytes and stroma in the human pineal gland. Increase of melanin pigments is due to the action of pineal indole-melatonin. Melatonin suppresses the melanocyte-stimulating hormone and prevents dispersion of melanin granules. Therefore, the melanin pigments become concentrated in the pineal gland.
The sphenodon pineal has pigments in the supporting cells of the photoreceptors. Mammalian retina has pigment cell layer. Melanin pigments have been shown to be present in animal and human fetal pinealocytes. Correspondingly, the present study, light microscopically, has shown melanin pigments in the human adults. Melanin pigments gradually accumulate within the parenchymal cells with increasing age in males, whereas in females, the maximum pigmentation is noticed in 30-40 year age group and then there is a fall (Tapp and Huxley 1972). The present study shows that there is no gender difference in the amount of melanin pigments, that a gradual increase in melanin pigments, more concentrated extra cellularly, occurs and that melanin pigments are more clearly seen as age advances.

it is propaganda
i won't say black propaganda cause the only black ppl the buy this shit are Stylemaster, Poppa Wu, Sunnywinters and his secondaries.
it's a disgusting field of thought, to become what you hate in white supremacist culture, meaning your striving to be the lowest example of socialization your 'enemy' has to offer.
it all comes from self hate and self-esteem voids and will do nothing but cause it's suscribers to live in a world of hate and frustration that will eat their insides and lead them to believe the world outside of their illusion is forever hopeless.
a sad way to die.

Ginger Cosmopolitan
Total Time
Prep 2 mins

This is adapted from a Stone's recipe. The recipe calls for citrus infused vodka but I didn't have any so used a smaller amount of home-made limoncello instead. Using limoncello makes it lovely & sweet on the palate, next time I'll try the citron to see how the flavour differs.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 45 -60 ml citrus-infused vodka or 30 ml limoncello
- 60 ml stone's original ginger wine
- 75 ml cranberry juice
- 5 dashes fresh lime juice
- Shake all well and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
- Garnish with flamed orange zest and a small piece of crystallised ginger.

The Atlanta Falcons faced a tough Week 2 matchup with the "dream team" on Sunday evening. The media hype leading up to this week's Sunday night football game revolved around Vick returning to the Georgia Dome for the first time as a starter. As Sunday's night game proved, the Dome is still one of the toughest places to play on the road for any NFL team.
The game proved to be an exciting one, with each team trading 10-plus point leads and ending in a 35-31 win for the Falcons. Michael Vick left with a concussion, sending backup Kafka in to try to get the Eagles back on track, but ultimately could not stretch the field enough for a late comeback.
Let's take a look at what was good, bad and ugly for the Atlanta Falcons in this game.

What is this?

I believe this has something to do with emissions, it is cracked. One side is 1/8 the other is 1/4. Anyone know the proper name, it belongs to my 1998 2.5 ltr Wrangler. The 1/4 side attaches to the intake manifold. The 1/8 side attaches to something that looks like a crushed can near the top of the engine. Thanks!
It is a vacuum hose. It is necessary. You can use a piece of rubber hose to fix it, just cut out the cracked area and use the rubber hose to connect the two sides or just get a new one from jeep.

Generally speaking, folks touting the economic impact of teams and events are full of it. You can find plenty of stuff online supporting that statement. Here's one study.
Local organizing committees would do just as well to trot out Dr. Evil and have him suggest that by bringing the Single-A all-star game to Podunk, it'll generate a trillion billion kazillion dollars for the local economy. Means just as much.
In Las Vegas this year, they were anticipating a nongaming windfall of more than $26 million.
Well, stick this in your next economic impact study Mr. We Want This Event In Our Town. The head of MGM Mirage Inc., says his companies first quarter earnings were down BECAUSE of the NBA's all-star game.

How Are Rebounds Good For You?
"You should avoid just jumping into another relationship right away, you don't want to fall into a rebound."
But the thing is- Maybe we do.
Now, maybe the dating won't hold up in comparison to your last relationship, and maybe you won't be as invested. But maybe that's a good thing. I tend to have a pattern, after I get heart broken, I meet someone I like being with, and I'll date them for like 1-3 months. After that, I generally realize I'm not as invested as I should be, and end it.
It gives me someone to take my mind off my sadness, my heartbreak and the general feeling of being alone. Now, in saying this, I'm not saying to rush into anything serious. But dating after a break up can help you feel wanted, it can give you someone great to hang out with, and they can help you heal until you're ready to be single again, and start looking for the real thing.
Don't lead the other person on. Don't tell them you love them if you don't, don't physically go super far, or you will hurt them, and that's not right.
But when people tell you not to date after a heart break, ignore them. Remind yourself what's out there.

[quote]Don't lead the other person on. Don't tell them you love them if you don't, don't physically go super far, or you will hurt them, and that's not right.[/quote]
To enter a relationship with someone to heal yourself that you know will probably end in 1-3 months is the definition of leading them on. Using someone that is trying to find their love, taking their attention + effort and affection is going to hurt them when you are done with them, nor is it right to waste their time. It doesn't matter what you tell them or tell yourself... but knowingly going into a rebound relationship is "leading someone on" and will "hurt them" and "not right". After all... it is feeling wanted, and valued, and their affection that heals you and that comes with a cost to them.
Yes, a rebound relationship will help YOU heal, and soon you will be ready to find someone you really want... But don't try to justify it as something that can be done right... It is always at expense of hurting someone else, possibly a lot costlier than the amount of healing you will experience.
Skimming through the posts on here, and going through my own experience, it is a sh!tty thing to experience. Honestly, it blows my mind that you can justify it, and are promoting such an idea.
Heal yourself, and stop spreading the pain.
Get better soon! I hope it's not serious.
emk, I think if the other person knows from the beginning that you are not looking for a serious relationship, just a little fun and companionship then its ok.
- sara28: adding to what she said. After my last break up i met this guy online. We never met in person. It was just text or phone calls, but it did help. When my ex came around I told that guy that I wont be talking to him anymore. He was hurt regardless of never meeting me. We probably spoke every other day, and kept the messages to the minimum. I wasnt in love with him never told him so. And he told me he was in love with me without meeting. So he was really upset about it. That made me think that we are all living in a society where we all want to be in love. A little affection or attention shouldnt be turned into love. There is love at first sight but come on people, GET REAL. I still agree with lyssabugg...its not your fault if someone falls in love with you without actually meeting or a real relationship...
Baron A.:
I am still trying to wrap my mind around the rebound. I remember telling my rebound that i was not ready, that she was a beautiful girl, and if I was not going through this she would be the one, I think! Needless to say she wanted to be around me, she fell hard. I enjoyed the attention, but felt overwhelmed at times, then she wanted more and then I ran, it was hard to hear the phone ring and I just could not answer it, most difficult time of my life.
Would I do it again? YES!!!
- emk: Curious as to why you would do it again Baron? do you agree that it was MUCH harder for her (especially her having heard the words that she qualified as "the one")?
Baron A.:
See the thing is I was indeed weak, but the experience offered me something that i needed or wanted during my time of healing from a broken heart. The mistake I made was when I knew she was falling I should have walked away, that mistake I would not make in future, but if I can be honest with my feelings, and you still want to share you with my broken heart, then I would.
If you are asking me if this is something I would recommend for someone who has just been out of a long term relationship and need a shoulder to lay on, then no certainly, someone is going to get hurt, once you push it beyond a certain point.
- Thunderwolf: I will pose the same question to both Lyssa and Baron.....If you're going to set someone up to fall, are you any better than any other PUA? And a follow up, Do you think you could withstand the same if it was played on you? No judgement here, just askin'
- Baron A.: @Thunderwolf, I would not recommend getting into a rebound relationship at ALL!! I am just saying that I had the experience and did not regret it, and I am sure if someone did it to me, it would hurt like hell.
Sara28: Love is irrational, I don't think it's realistic for people to say when people should or shouldn't fall in love. It just happens... we read about it here all of the time when after the fact it seems so wrong.
Also, how can you define a real relationship from one that doesn't count as a real one? Does the rebound victim know? From the perspective of the rebound victim, they are investing a substantial amount of time and energy to support and heal the other person... Does it make sense that they would want to stick around and expend so much effort they knew from the beginning that other person would just leave... to start looking for "the real thing".
In my mind, it doesn't matter whos fault it is, or that they shouuldn't have fallen in love, or if you warned the other person in the first place; it is just a way of justifying something that is selfish. You don't get healed if the other person doesn't invest themselves and you know from the beginning that you will not invest yourself after you get healed. No one out there would invest months of time and energy know that they are just being used with no hope of a future; the mixed messages you are sending are giving them hope.
I realize that I could very well be naive, because this seems so black and white to me.
- LyssaBugg: Some of the confusion is my fault; I had a head injury and there are some things I should have explained more clearly. One thing, EMK, I never said "GO OUT AND SEEK A REBOUND RELATIONSHIP!" I was saying, that after a major heartbreak, I tend to start looking to date. I'll find someone that I really like talking to, and I'll go on some "dates" (that's right, I never said a "relationship") for one to three months. Going on the dates distracts me, and often I'll think I'm getting into something real. Then, one day, I'll wake up, and my ex won't cross my mind nearly as much, and I realize I'm not as invested in the person as I should be, so I end it. Never in my article does it say it is admirable to find a rebound. What I DO suggest in my article is to start looking to date early on, because dating can heal you. But it has a word of caution, that it can be a rebound, so don't do anything to rash soon after a break up, but there is nothing wrong with dating, especially if at the time you believe it is more than it is. In fact, no where in my article does it say they word "relationship."
- LyssaBugg: (Side note- 1-3 months comes from how often you see the person. If I see a person every other week, it can go for 3 months, if I'm seeing someone a few times a week, it would be less. After a break up I have a one date a week rule). Going on a few public dates (dinner, movies, bowling), that last a duration of an hour or so each, is not setting a person up to fall in love in my opinion. In my case, people I've met online lately. That being said, there will always be crazy people off their rocker that even before you go on a date you will say, "I don't want anything serious/I'm dating a few people" will decide you're in love, and in a relationship after one date. Yeah, it happened, and it was awkward.
I learned from rebounds...about rebounds. lol!
our bodies need bodies to be around. we go through severe withdrawl otherwise.
Johnny Nicks:
Some rebounds may be useful..
Focusing on someone new, according to the limited research on the subject of rebound relationships, can help a person recover from a break-up (Spielmann, S., Macdonald, G., & Wilson, A., 2009).
- banshee: There was no such term as "rebound relationship" when I was dating. At least it wasn't in wide use. My "rebounds" made me feel alive again. In no case was I still in love with an ex, but I guess I was still nursing my wounds from a prior breakup. I see no ethical issues because I was ready for the next relationship, and in no way using the new guy as a "placeholder". I don't know. At what point after a breakup does a new relationship stop being a "rebound?"
- banshee: ThunderWolf's last post made me remember when I was someone else's rebound, sort of. We dated once. Than he WROTE ME A NOTE saying he had just gotten engaged to his ex, "CANDY". I wasn't heartbroken (it had only been one date), but I was pretty PO'd. Though it probably would have hurt more had we dated longer.

Health coaches also typically assist in designing exercise programs for their clients; they work to assess the client or patient's ability to exercise, develop a program, and adjust it as the client's abilities and health change over the course of the program.
