How far along? 23 weeks and 4 days, so nearing the end of the second trimester (really? Wow, time is just flying by)
Total weight gain/loss: About five and half kilos. I think that is okay – I hope that is okay!
Stretch marks?: Not yet, but then I feel as if gyermek has finished a bit of a growth spurt and that my belly will stay the same size for a few weeks now. (Or is this just wishful thinking…?)
Sleep: Some nights good, some nights bad. I've started getting cramp at night again, which is a great big pain, but so far, it's not too bad. However, some nights, I just don't feel tired at all.
Best moment this week: Sitting outside in the sunshine (the day before October!) and chatting with a pregnant friend.
Worst moment this week: Probably that some of the side effects of the iron tablets have appeared. However, I'm going to carry on with them, because the benefits are just so good – goodbye, exhaustion!
Movement: Yes, lots, and not just low down now. Sometimes it feels like gyermek is running a marathon in there.
Belly button in or out?: Still in – yippee!
What I miss: Not sure that I feel like I'm missing out on anything this week because I'm pregnant. Perhaps the disappearance of the feelings of exhaustion are making me more positive?
What I am looking forward to: Hmm, not sure. Cannot think of anything off the top of my head that is due to happen in the next few weeks.
Milestones: We've spent this weekend cleaning up our Teutonia stroller, so we can sell it on. We've bought a luverly iCandy Peach Blossom stroller for Little O and gyermek to share. So, the Teutonia will be listed on Blocket soon.

If you graduated from Rockingham High School in 1965, and went bowling and lost your ring, this could be your lucky Christmas.
Jim West of Hamlet used to own and operate the Bowling Center with his father, and he said it wasn't uncommon for people to take off their rings and set them on the scoring table while they played. Sometimes these rings were left behind, and held onto by management until they could be returned to their owner. One such ring was never returned.
"I had kept it in the safe in the office, and then it got pushed to the back and I forgot about it," said West.
West recently cleaned out a closet that contained a box of things from the Bowling Center, and there he found the ring.
The ring has a large green stone in the center, with one side decorated in pine cones and the other side says "rockets."
The ring was made by Josten ring company, and the inside is inscribed with the initials "L.V.W."
"I'm trying to remember whose ring it is," said West. "I was a freshman then in 1965. I think the ring was left at the Bowling Center between '65 and '70."
If you believe this ring to be yours, call West at 910-582-6321.

Congress is back in session – lucky you!- and handling the tough issues of our time. Along with righting our economic crisis, ending our dependence on foreign oil, finding judges for American sing-off reality television shows, they've adopted a new crusade sure to take a heavy burden off the backs of millions of Americans who look at those little "pod" packets of laundry detergent and dish-washing agent and think to themselves, man, that looks like a tasty, tasty little morsel.
Now, if this does not sound like an issue that should take priority among our elected officials, you might be among the millions of Americans, some of them parents, who keep their laundry detergent out of reach of people who are children or who act like them. But you would not be Sen. Chuck Schumer, for whom this issue is very, very personal.
Since April, 40 local children in the city have mistakenly downed the colorful laundry packs such as Tide Pods, leading to numerous hospitalizations, some emergency intestinal surgery, and pangs of hunger of Sen. Charles Schumer.
"The incidents are skyrocketing," Schumer said Sunday joined by several medical professionals. "These pods were supposed to make household chores easier, not tempt our children to swallow harmful chemicals. I saw one on my staffer's desk and I wanted to eat it."

These have a seafood like smell and I think taste. My dogs think they are the greatest treats in the world and can't wait for their daily dose! (One is very picky) Glyco-flex was originally recommended to me by my vet. Entirely Pets has a much better price and they delivered my order within 3 days of my order. In my busy life it it is nice to get them delivered to my home rather than drive to the vet.....the dogs like this option too...allows mom to have more time for walks!
Our boxer has been taking Glyco Flex 600 for her arthritis. It helps her so much! She was hobbling around and now she plays like a puppy again! Great product!

Kevin Ullery, 26, was arrested after sheriff's deputies executed a search warrant at his Feeney Drive home early Friday.
Additional charges could be pending against a Plainfield man arrested early Friday after Will County Sheriff's police discovered child pornography on his home computer, Deputy Chief Ken Kaupas said.
Kevin M. Ullery, 26, of the 23000 block of West Feeney was booked into the Will County jail on five counts of aggravated child pornography charges, according to jail records. Aggravated child pornography refers to images or video appearing to depict a child under the age of 13.
Sign up for Plainfield Patch's newsletter and breaking news alerts.
Following an investigation by the Will County Sheriff's Department and Will County State's Attorney's Office, Kaupas said deputies executed a search warrant early Friday at Ullery's home and discovered pornographic content involving minors on his computer.
"There's probably going to be some continued investigation," Kaupas said, noting it would be "premature" to discuss what was found on the computer.
"The computer itself has to be forensically searched," Kaupas said. "There could be additional (charges) coming, but that could take several weeks."
Check back with Patch for additional information as it becomes available.

Let The Official Lady Gaga Backlash Commence!
Those of you who know me, know that I am not a super-typical gay. Yes, I do cock around with men, and I attend gay events such as Gay Days, Circuit parties, and Church. I am not an avid Madonna or Bette Midler fan, however. And Lady Gaga sometimes makes me want to peel my eyelids off with an orange juicer. Recently, Lady Gaga has parted ways with her creative director, so I think its the perfect time for the official Lady Gaga backlash to commence! Here are the reasons why:
1. People always call Lady Gaga an artist, but the truth is, in order to get ready for a concert she just bathes herself in Gorilla Glue and lets the gays around her throw random objects at her body, seeing which ones will stick.
2. She has started this fad for pop artists everywhere to just dress as bat-shit crazy as they want. Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj are two examples of #thingsthatfelloutofgagasvagina and while I love Nicki's music, she looks like a muppet that got raped up the ass by Grimace. Don't even get me started on Katy Perry. You want to do something crazy? Do it the classy way like Read more…

Eos Airlines, the high-flying luxuries airline, came to an end Sunday as the Purchase, N.Y.-based company ceased operations after filing for bankruptcy protection, the latest casualty of a credit crunch and a money-losing airline industry that has been hit hard by high fuel prices.
There have been a handful of small carriers to file for Chapter 11 or go out of business in recent months. One of Eos' main rivals in the all-business-class niche, MAXjet Airways, stopped flying in December. At the time, analysts questioned the viability of all-business-class airlines.
The smaller carriers face stiff competition from deeper-pocketed large airlines that offer business-class service along similar routes. While business class service can be very profitable, it's also a very thin market, airline experts have said, noting that any loss of market share can be devastating to a carrier that only offers business class.
Larger carriers, meanwhile, are looking at combinations to protect their futures. Delta Air Lines announced earlier this month its intention to acquire Northwest Airlines in a stock-swap deal. Both carriers have a trip through bankruptcy under their belts.
"It's no surprise," Calyon Securities airline analyst Ray Neidl said of Eos' downfall. "We saw it happen with other smaller, undercapitalized airlines. Basically, there are too many airlines. We're in a period of consolidation. The weaker guys, with $120-a-barrel oil, are finally succumbing."
When Eos launched its first flights in 2005, the startup carrier named for a Greek goddess came with enthusiastic business travelers looking for more space who didn't mind hefty fares for premium service across the Atlantic.
The airline reconfigured Boeing 757s meant for 220 passengers with 48 seats that could extend into a fully flat bed. Flights served wine, champagne, cocktails and gourmet foods. There were individual DVD players, and helicopter rides to the airport were offered to some travelers.
The price for the New York to London flights, which it offered twice a day, ranged from $3,500 to $9,000 roundtrip.
Eos' main problem was cash to keep it going.
The privately held airline, founded by former British Airways executive David Spurlock, secured $85 million in startup financing in June 2004 from several investors, including private equity firm Golden Gate Capital. It later received additional financing.
The carrier was expected to close this Thursday on $50 million in additional financing from an undisclosed investor, but the deal fell through, according to a statement Sunday from Eos. That triggered Saturday's bankruptcy filing.
"It is regrettable that, even though investors continue to be enthusiastic about our business model, and even though we had a term sheet in hand, we were unable to close on the financing we needed," its chief executive, Jack Williams, said. "That leaves us with insufficient cash on hand to continue operations."
Eos operated its final flights Sunday from London's Stansted Airport to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, after which it planned to cease operations. The airline plans to immediately eliminate the jobs of most of its 450 employees.
The bankruptcy filing in New York listed $70.2 million in assets and $34.9 million in debts. Servisair, which provides ground services at airports, was listed as the holder of the largest unsecured claim against Eos — $744,000. Atlanta-based Delta holds the fourth-largest unsecured claim at $363,692.
Golden Gate Capital is listed as the company's largest shareholder, holding a 47 percent stake. Rizon United holds a 24 percent stake, court records show.
The company said in a note to passengers that they should seek other arrangements for travel and should contact their credit card companies or travel agents for information about how to obtain a refund for unused tickets. It said its frequent-flier program would no longer redeem points, adding that any value related to membership will be determined by the bankruptcy court.
British all-business-class carrier Silverjet said Sunday that it would offer a special rate to Eos customers that allows them access to a limited number of seats on Silverjet's New York area to London route for the same price as their Eos ticket. Silverjet operates twice-daily service from Newark Liberty Airport in New Jersey to London Luton Airport and daily service from London to Dubai.

Sadness . . . about as close to a charter as I've ever seen. Eos, you will be missed.
— SauerballI was an crew member for Eos, and it is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye. I'd like to personally thank all our wonderful guests who made my job a complete joy. Our smiles were authentic and our passion for the company was deeply seeded. It's hard to see a good thing go away, but I am also very proud of what we accomplished. Though we are out of business, I believe we succeeded in many ways and brought a refreshing attitude to the skies. May other airlines follow suite.
Thank you Eos Class guests. You, too, will be missed.
— eosgoddessI know this is a hard hit to several of the employees. its too bad the industry is in such poor shape. i do have a question to any of those that may be able to help. i am looking for some contact information in order to find out what EOS is doing with their planes. I have people interested in purchasing their fleet and i need to get in contact with somone to help facilitate this process. any advice would be much appreciated. good luck to all the EOS employees.
— DylanThe EOS Experience
When people die, families grieve; when a Goddess folds her wings, everyone dies a little.
My name in Arabic means Queen. But never have I felt more regal than when I experienced EOS.
From the word Go, EOS has pampered me – with its chauffeured ride to and from the airport, the competent reception at check-in, and escorted fast-track through security. Even my bags were treated like royalty, with no hassles over tagging. EOS had pulled all the plugs, all the way to London non-stop.
The EOS Lounge, shared with Emirates at JFK, presented almost a 360 degree view of the tarmac. We chose a table overlooking our aircraft, just to make sure it would not take off without us.
Although it was late afternoon, there was a soft glow all around the lounge interior. And the spread was incredible – from dates and olives to curries and naans, all quite incredibly light and delicious.
Once on board, I was astounded to see a spatial gourmet. First of all, there was no class distinction here – all passengers were royalty. Wide plush seats, with full stretch facility and a special footrest that doubled as a hamper for my bedding. Just four seats across, one on either side of the aisle, and one beside each window. No middle seats meant no acrobatics trying to sneak past my neighbor.
The seats (or should I say "daybeds") were staggered, so that the aisle seat was spaced about two feet behind the window seat. This gave privacy for passengers who may not be travelling together. The window seat had a footlocker that would accommodate a small cabin bag, some footwear, newspaper, and a bottle of water. The aisle seat had a cubby about the size of the footlocker, and comfortably held a handbag, sweater, nightwear, and other goodies that EOS brought around as soon as we took off.
Which brings me to my next surprise – my husband got his favorite drink, gin and tonic; and I got mine, Baileys to the brim. I had never flown EOS before, so how did they know? Looks like someone had done their homework well before the due date. I was just starting to get used to being treated this way.
Surprise number three – the cabin attendants brought around soft blue flannel pajamas, ours to keep and with a great choice of sizes. Hardly one to change on board, I could not resist losing myself into the snugness of the nightwear, since it was a night flight anyway, and way past my bedtime.
But I was not about to miss out on the dinner now – if the appetizers were so memorable, could the entree be far behind? Fresh vegetarian (how DID they know?) meals served hot and custom decorated with my favorite condiments and desserts – I would not have missed it for the world, despite my gastronomic feast at the airport lounge.
Guess what came after dinner – a nifty little dvd player of my own with a wide selection of the latest movies. Did I say it was past my bedtime? Well, my self-imposed curfew had just been extended.
As I was drifting off to slumber land, my guardian angel whispered into my ear "Would you like me to make your bed for you, Mrs. S?" Now that was a dream I managed to see with my eyes open. As she gently took the dvd player off my hands, I eased myself out of my seat, obediently removed my shoes, wore my socks, shuffled to the five-star wash room, brushed my teeth and hair, and returned to my seat. My jaw fell open as I watched the attendant cheerfully pat the last pillow in place. I had not had someone make my bed since I was ten, and that was four decades ago. I could get used to this.
Not sure how long it would last, I could not resist one final request. In my best schoolgirl behavior, I asked if I may have a miniature bottle of Bailey's irish crème to take home with me as a souvenir.
She smiled back indulgently, like she would at a child that was trying to push her luck for one last wish before she shut her eyes. Within minutes, she returned with two large white paper bags filled with over thirty miniature liquer bottles, which I obediently stashed into my secret cubby. It was time to sleep.
How could I not dream after this delecatable display of elegance. After many long years, I dreamed in Kodak color, not about my scheduled destination, but about my EOS experience.
My miniatures decorate my buffet table top, with a seated Ganesha guarding them with his life, as I re-live my EOS experience every time we get together with friends and pour out a shot.
New York to London by EOS was, and forever will be, my destination; never just my journey.
EOS may have filed for bankruptcy; but my coffers are full of warm memories. Thank you EOS.

Van Dam Resigns from Recreation Commission
The selectman wanted Swampscott's Got Talent to be an annual event.
Vice Chairman David Van Dam resigned from the Recreation Commission Wednesday night, citing the commission's decision to hold the Swampscott's Got Talent event every other year.
As a selectman, Van Dam served as a liaison member of the commission and cannot vote. He strongly opposed the decision not to hold the Talent event this winter.
"Last year, they didn't want to do it and we made them," he said. The event made thousands of dollars, which was used to support other recreation programs, he said.
"My time is better spent elsewhere," Van Dam said.
Chairman Rich Malagrifa, who danced in the amateur talent contest last year, agreed.
He said he would switch with Van Dam on their assignments.
He will become the liaison with the recreation commission and assign Van Dam to serve as a liaison with the Board of Health.

Psychological and immunological characteristics of fatigued women undergoing radiotherapy for early-stage breast cancer
Supportive Care in Cancer, 06/04/2012
Courtier N et al. – The data are consistent with the concept that psychological distress prior to radiotherapy relates to a distinct immunological and behavioural response during radiotherapy. Patients reporting elevated anxiety should benefit from interventions that appropriately address the underlying psychological distress and have the potential to ameliorate disabling treatment–related fatigue.

- v. To summarize; epitomize.
- v. To create artistic abstractions of (something else, such as a concrete object or another style): "The Bauhaus Functionalists were . . . busy unornamenting and abstracting modern architecture, painting and design" ( John Barth).
Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
- To draw away; take away; withdraw or remove, whether to hold or to get rid of the object withdrawn: as, to abstract one's attention; to abstract a watch from a person's pocket, or money from a bank.
- To consider as a form apart from matter; attend to as a general object, to the neglect of special circumstances; derive as a general idea from the contemplation of particular instances; separate and hold in thought, as a part of a complex idea, while letting the rest go. This meaning of the Latin abstrahere, with the corresponding meaning of abstractio, first appears toward the end of the great dispute between the nominalists and realists in the twelfth century. The invention of these terms may be said to embody the upshot of the controversy. They are unquestionably translations of the Greek
ἀφαιρει%26ν , andἀφαίρεσις , though we cannot say how these Greek terms became known in the West so early. The earliest passage is the following: "We say those thoughts (intellectus) are by abstraction (per abstractionem), which either contemplate the nature of any form in itself without regard to the subject matter, or think any nature indifferently (indifferenter), apart, that is, from the difference of its individuals. … On the other hand, we may speak of subtraction, when any one endeavors to contemplate the nature of any subject essence apart from all form. Either thought, however, the abstracting as well as the subtracting, seems to conceive the thing otherwise than it exists." De Intellectibus, in Cousin's Fragments Philosophiques (2d ed.), p. 481. This old literature having been long forgotten, an erroneous idea of the origin of the term arose. "Abstraction means etymologically the active withdrawal of attention from one thing in order to fix it on another thing."Sully. [This plausible but false notion gave rise to the phrase to abstract (intrans.) from. See below.] - To derive or obtain the idea of.
- To select or separate the substance of, as a book or writing; epitomize or reduce to a summary.
- To extract: as, to abstract spirit. Synonyms To disengage, isolate, detach. See
abridge . - To form abstractions; separate ideas; distinguish between the attribute and the subject in which it exists: as, "brutes abstract not," Locke.
- [This is all founded on a false notion of the origin of the term. See above.]
- Conceived apart from matter and from special cases: as, an abstract number, a number as conceived in arithmetic, not a number of things of any kind. Originally applied to geometrical forms (the metaphor being that of a statue hewn from a stone), and down to the twelfth century restricted exclusively to mathematical forms and quantities. (Isidorus, about a. d. 600, defines abstract number.) It is now applied to anything of a general nature which is considered apart from special circumstances: thus, abstract right is what ought to be done independently of instituted law.
[The phrase in the abstract is preferable to the adjective in this sense.] - In grammar (since the thirteenth century), applied specially to that class of nouns which are formed from adjectives and denote character, as goodness, audacity, and more generally to all nouns that do not name concrete things. Abstract in this sense is a prominent term in the logic of Occam and of the English nominalists.
- Having the mind drawn away from present objects, as in ecstasy and trance; abstracted: as, "abstract as in a trance,"
- Produced by the mental process of abstraction: as, an abstract idea. Under this head belong two meanings of abstract which can hardly be considered as English, though they are sometimes used by writers influenced by the German language. They are— General; having relatively small logical comprehension; wide; lofty; indeterminate. This is the usual meaning of abstract in German; but its establishment in English would greatly confuse our historical terminology. Resulting from analytical thought; severed from its connections; falsified by the neglect of important considerations. This is the Hegelian meaning of the word, carrying with it a tacit condemnation of the method of analytical mechanics and of all application of mathematics.
- Demanding a high degree of mental abstraction; difficult; profound; abstruse: as, highly abstract conceptions; very abstract speculations.
- Applied to a science which deals with its object in the abstract: as, abstract logic; abstract mathematics: opposed to applied logic and mathematics.
- Separated from material elements; ethereal; ideal.
- n. That which concentrates in itself the essential qualities of anything more extensive or more general, or of several things; the essence; specifically, a summary or epitome containing the substance, a general view, or the principal heads of a writing, discourse, series of events, or the like.
- n. That portion of a bill of quantities, an estimate, or an account which contains the summary of the various detailed articles.
- n. In pharmacy, a dry powder prepared from a drug by digesting it with suitable solvents, and evaporating the solution so obtained to complete dryness at a low temperature (122° F.). It is twice as strong as the drug or the fluid extract, and about ten times as strong as the tincture.
- n. A catalogue; an inventory.
- n. In grammar, an abstract term or noun.
- n. conceived apart from matter or special circumstances; without reference to particular applications; in its general principles or meanings.
- n. Synonyms Abridgment, Compendium, Epitome, Abstract, etc. See abridgment.
- n. real estate A summary title of the key points detailing a tract of land, for ownership; abstract of title.
- adj. Apart from practice or reality; vague; theoretical; impersonal; not applied.
- adj. grammar As a noun, denoting an intangible as opposed to an object, place, or person.
- adj. computing Of a class in object-oriented programming, being a partial basis for subclasses rather than a complete template for objects.
- v. transitive To draw off (interest or attention).
- v. intransitive, rare To perform the process of abstraction.
- v. intransitive, fine arts To create abstractions.
- v. intransitive, computing To produce an abstraction, usually by refactoring existing code. Generally used with "out".
GNU Webster's 1913
- adj. obsolete Withdraw; separate.
- adj. Considered apart from any application to a particular object; separated from matter; existing in the mind only. Hence: ideal; abstruse; difficult.
- adj. Expressing a particular property of an object viewed apart from the other properties which constitute it; -- opposed to
concrete . - adj. Resulting from the mental faculty of abstraction; general as opposed to particular.
- adj. Abstracted; absent in mind.
- v. To withdraw; to separate; to take away.
- v. To draw off in respect to interest or attention.
- v. To separate, as ideas, by the operation of the mind; to consider by itself; to contemplate separately, as a quality or attribute.
- v. To epitomize; to abridge.

Dealing with Gout
Gout is medical condition that results from abnormally elevated levels of uric acid in the body which over time causes reoccurring joint inflammation – a form of arthritis. Gout is commonly accompanied by sudden and severe attacks of pain, swelling, redness, and inflammation.
The term "gout" commonly is used to refer to the painful arthritis attacks. It derives from an ancient term "gutta" which referred to arthritis at the base of the big toe over 2000 years ago. Uric acid crystals were first noted by Antonj van Leeuwenhoek in 1684. Alfred Garrod first described the uric acid crystals in the tissues of the skin and joints of patients with gout.
History Lesson For Gout
Historically gout was linked to overweight, lazy, middle-aged men and is one of the most frequently recorded medical illnesses in history.It is a condition that many famous people (and not only men) have suffered from with Benjamin Franklin, Queen Anne, John Hancock and George Mason being some of history's most noted gout sufferers.
Over 5-Million Americans Suffer From Gout
Today it is estimated that over 5-million people in America suffer from gout with middle-aged men between the ages of forty and fifty feature the usual face of a gout sufferer. Women are at an increased rate for developing gout following menopause.
Gout Is Treatable
Gout is a treatable condition that usually (approx 70%) affects the joint of the big toe. It may also occur in feet, ankles, knees, hands and wrists.
Before we address the treatments and things that you can do to prevent gout you need to understand what causes Gout. Uric acid is a breakdown product of purines which are part of many foods we eat. An abnormality in handling uric acid can cause attacks of painful arthritis (gout), kidney stones and a blockage of the kidney tubules with uric acid crystals which can lead to kidney failure. The cause is often related to an inherited abnormality in the body's ability to process uric acid.
With normal body function we expect that approximately two-thirds of the Uric Acid to be removed from the body through the kidneys and urinary system. It is this balance of fluids in our system that plays an integral role in Gout prevention and gout treatment. The prevention of Gout is not that difficult.
The Causes
Gout is normally caused or associated with stress, excess alcohol consumption, high purine foods, excess weight (obesity), high blood pressure and exposure to toxic environmental chemicals – more often a combination of these. An outbreak or attack can last anywhere from a few hours to a few months. The attacks occur with different frequency for different people and for different reasons; some people may have an excessive level of uric acid in their bloodstream and experience a gout attack only once in a lifetime while others that test with similar uric acid levels will develop chronic gout.
Although hyperucemia (high levels of serum uric acid) is considered to be directly related with the development of gout it is not always caused by this factor. Nor does there seem to be a connection between gout and rheumatoid arthritis.
To confirm the diagnosis doctors often perform tests such as blood analyses or tissue examinations under the microscope. Gout sufferers usually have serum uric acid levels above average and medications such as probenecid, sulfinpyrazone and allopurinol are usually used in the treatment of gout for preventing the recurrence of pain attacks.
Without treatment, tophi may develop after the onset of gout – especially in older people and particularly women. Tophi forms in the joints and other places throughout the body and sometimes may even break through the skin to appear as white or yellowish-white chalky nodules.
Whether a natural method or a western medicine approach is used, the main goal is to create immediate gout pain relief and preventing gout attacks from returning and for this reason we would make the following two recommendations;
Adjust your diet
By adopting a low purine diet is now one of the natural cures for gout suggested by some medical professionals. Limiting consumption of fish, shellfish, poultry and products containing yeast are also a part of a creating a low purine diet.
Beer consumption also needs to be limited as it contains alcohol which can cause dehydration, but it also contains purine. Studies have been conducted that connect the drinking of coffee – and the more of it the better – with marked prevention of Gout in significant numbers of participants.
The researchers believe that drinking coffee lowers the level of insulin, and with it decreases the Uric Acid levels.
Other natural gout cures include fruits and vegetables low in protein, lemon juice, fish oil supplements, ginger, turmeric and colchicine.
Include these in your diet or source some Omega-3 fish oil supplements either locally or these can be purchased over the internet.

Detox your body
After years of continual toxin ingestion will have caused damage to your detoxification system. To help reverse this you need to detox your body and we would recommend one of the best ways to do this is to use a natural remedy known as Ayurtox.
This works by releasing hundreds of phytonutrients that work on the molecular level to remove metabolic waste and toxins from your body and stimulates and tones your gastrointestinal system to improve circulation, nourish muscles and connective tissues, prime vital organs like the liver and kidneys, strengthen your immune system, and soothe your nervous system to restore natural balance and harmony to your body.
Ayurtox can easily be purchased over the internet if you are unable to source locally.

Earlier this week Tim Harford, also known as the Undercover Economist, gave a fantastic talk at ODI on the topic of 'Development as Trial and Error'. Drawing on his latest book, Adapt: Why Success Always Starts with Failure, Tim provided the audience with a compelling account of the need for a different way of thinking about and navigating complex problems. (click here and scroll down for videos of the talk and
subsequent discussion)
One of his starting points was to highlight the considerable complexity of the economy, drawing on the work of Eric Beinhocker. This compared the 'product space' in different societies – the number of distinct products that are on offer. In hunter gatherer societies, it amounts to some 300 products. In the average Wal-Mart, it is 100,000. In a city like New York or London, it is 10 billion. (you can see Eric's explanation of this in his presentation at a UKCDS workshop in May)
Tim used this concept, and a story about an unusual project to build a toaster from scratch, to argue that this kind of complexity can most effectively be navigated through evolutionary principles of 'variation, selection and amplification' that enable lots of small 'trial and error' experiments to be aggregated as effectively as possible.
The market was given as one example of such an aggregator, but there are obvious shortcomings. It has worked for some kinds of problems – Western affluence, most notably. But there are other problems where the market has failed, or where its influence has been far from desirable. Other examples include the scientific enterprise, consisting of diverse means of submitting and peer review of new ideas and experiments. But of course the scientific establishment is also prone to conservatism and inhibiting innovation.
So what can we say about situations where the market is not working or cannot work, where peer review mechanisms are not in place, and where tolerance of failure is impossibly high? The public sector was the example that everyone kept coming back to. How do you get the process of trial and error working in such settings? There are numerous ways Tim touched upon, including innovation prizes, creating artificial marketplaces, finding ways of supporting entrepreneurs, and so on. This is a great article he wrote for Slate, drawing from the book, on exactly this topic. As he puts it there:
Here's the thing about failure in innovation: It's a price worth paying. We don't expect every lottery ticket to pay a prize, but if we want any chance of winning that prize, then we buy a ticket. In the statistical jargon, the pattern of innovative returns is heavily skewed to the upside; that means a lot of small failures and a few gigantic successes.
The paradox at the heart of the need to be more systematic (i.e. controlled,
managerial) about innovation (i.e. disruptive, entrepreneurial) is one that is
not easily overcome. Tim's remarkable achievement in Adapt is in his clear and
eloquent articulation of this challenge, along some excellent accounts of how it
has been addressed. Let's hope we in development and humanitarian aid are able to take his ideas and lessons on board.

Silver and gold vessels and architectural elements count among the most dazzling artifacts produced in late antiquity. While Christian, Jewish, and Muslim texts consistently denounce the accumulation of precious metals as reflecting a repellent concern with the trappings of worldly wealth, these traditions also associate gold and silver with heavenly adornment.

Several of the Jewish manuscripts on view in Byzantium and Islam: Age of Transition are thought to have come from the Cairo Genizah, a repository of communal, religious, and business documents housed in the attic of the tenth-century Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo that was re-discovered in 1896 by Cambridge scholar Solomon Schechter.

Introducing the arts of the Islamic world to a new audience is often a challenge for scholars, not only because the reader may be unfamiliar with the names or chronology, but also because the subject covers such a vast geographic area. Islamic Art and Architecture, 650–1250 by Richard Ettinghausen, Oleg Grabar, and Marilyn Jenkins-Madina provides a thorough overview to the arts and architecture of the Islamic world from North Africa to Central Asia beginning with the jahiliyya (pre-Islamic) period and ending with the Mongol siege of Baghdad in 1258. The book illustrates a wide array of objects both secular and sacred, luxurious and mundane.

In the heart of the Bronx, just off the 6 train, is the bustling, welcoming, and "byzantine" church of Saint Anselm. The church was built in 1916 and finished just one year later under Father Bernard Kevenhoerster, a prominent Benedictine prelate.1 Although the original design for the church called for a Gothic building, the structure and format intentionally emulates that of Hagia Sophia, the church built by Emperor Justinian in the sixth century. The massive dome that hovers over the nave, the colonnaded side aisles, and the impression from the exterior of dome shapes piled one atop the other all speak to the inspiration produced by the Constantinopolitan church, one that was shared by other American churches of the early twentieth century.2

Hagia Sophia is the Orthodox Patriarchal church located in the former Byzantine capital, Constantinople (present-day Istanbul, Turkey). It was originally built in 360 A.D. during the reign of Constantius II, but was destroyed during a period of riots at he beginning of the fifth century. A second basilica with a wooden roof was constructed under the orders of Theodosius II to replace the destroyed structure, but it, too, was destroyed during the Nika Revolt in 532 A.D.

Few figures embody the transitional spirit of the seventh and eighth centuries A.D. as fully as does John of Damascus. His life gives a sense of the multicultural milieu of the early Islamic city and its diverse population of Christians and Muslims, Arabs and Greeks.

Scholars have produced ample studies on the imperial and aristocratic life of Byzantium, focusing on buildings, endowments, clothes, and other aspects. While these studies provide essential insights into the Byzantine world, the empire did not consist solely of emperors, their entourages, or wealthy families, the dynatoi. Another view is offered through the lens of the non-elite society, which existed somewhat independently and shaped the Byzantine community economically, culturally, and socially.

While many studying the late antique period tend to focus on large-scale political shifts, change on the microlevel is often more difficult to track. Women's Letters from Ancient Egypt offers such a sense of everyday people's daily concerns by allowing us to peek at their correspondence.
One of the mosaics on view in the exhibition comes from the city of Gerasa (modern-day Jerash, Jordan). Gerasa was an architecturally dense city founded during the second century B.C.E. Under Roman rule it included two theaters, two bath houses, a nymphaeum (public fountain), and a macellum (meat market). Although its prosperity diminished over time, by the third century C.E. the city had regained some of its wealth and reinstituted massive building campaigns.

Thanks I knew about that but I wonder if I can get that to boot on the A8X board , I mean if the board itself is compatible. I don't really care about the rest. Wifi is easy enough as it's a Realtek USB with mainline support. The rest if have no idea ... But if I could get wifi and screen working that would be good for a start.
I was hoping willPanda could contact the manufacturers and get the exact source code for this one.

I am getting the same behavior! For 2 seconds it says it's updating the system and then I get the E COMPLETE! message followed by a 10s countdown to system shutdown (which does not happen - I have to do it manually).
I have tried with both dbg and px_update folders on the sd card as well as each one's contents on the sd card to no avail. I cannot install the new firmware.... Can anyone help?
Thanks! I guess I will have to try a 2GB card then (if I partition a larger one, will that work?)...
Any other more recent firmware available anywhere? Official or custom?
ANSWER: I am answering my own question after having managed to properly install the "new" firmware. You have to have both folders that were included in the compressed archive (dbg and px_update) in the root folder of a 2GB sd card. Using a larger sd card will not work! I did partition a larger one to 2GB (plus whatever else you want - that extra will not even be detected) and that did the trick, so I guess you can try that too!

Growing up in Motown and being raised by two musical parents it was probably inevitable that Zo! (Lorenzo Fergusen) would be involved in music. Described by his friend and collaborator Sy Smith as a "young Quincy Jones", Zo! can do it all, just don't ask him to sing. The Washington Informer caught up with Zo! ahead of his show at Blues Alley with Sy Smith and discussed his musical influences, finding the time to be a touring musician as well as a music educator and his collaboration with Sy Smith.
Washington Informer: How would you describe your production style?
Zo!: Very free, very open. You know, it's nothing that I like to put boundaries around. I may wake up and wanna do an R&B record, next day I may wake up and wanna do a salsa influenced record, the next day I may want to do a jazz influenced record. So, I would say that it's pretty, pretty diverse. I'm a lover of music, I don't put any boundaries on what I listen to, so I definitely don't put any boundaries on what I'm creating.
Washington Informer: You grew up in Detroit, you now live in the DC area. How has growing up in Motown influenced you musically?
Zo!: I think it influenced me heavily. My mother is originally from this area, she's originally from Maryland and my father was originally from Florida. Living with musical parents I think had even more of an influence than the area, I think we could have been living anywhere and I would have had some type of influence from their musical taste. They were always playing music in the house, always playing music in the car; 8-Track and vinyl was all over the place, so I was exposed to great music very early. I would probably credit them much more so than where I was born, I wasn't around for the golden age of Motown, but it definitely influenced me. I think later on, once I started making music and started getting with other people from the area, we started pushing each other. You know, cats like Wajeed and Nick Speed and of course Dilla and Slum Village. I think growing up around a musical household was more my foundation than anything.
Washington Informer: Being from Detroit, Jay Dilla had to be a big influence on you right?
Zo!: Yeah definitely. You know his music was something that we really took pride in because it was so high quality and was something that nobody had ever heard. You know when I first heard the song "Players" like it kind of changed my view, just on the production quality of hip-hop, because up to that point, what was it '98?, up to'98? I hadn't heard anything that sounded anything like that, not even remotely close. I use to go on campus, I liked to go to the library, and log on to www.sandboxautomatic.com, and click on the [laughs] the little album sample and just listen to that joint over and over again I was like, yeah I was mesmerized.
Washington Informer: Who were some of your other musical influences?
Zo!: They're so many, there's too many to name.
Washington Informer: Just like your top 5.
Zo!: I would say the Mizell Brothers are definitely (in my) top 3. I may have to look at my iTunes, I'm gonna mess around and forget like five people. Definitely Earth, Wind & Fire, I think composition wise, live performance wise and making stuff sound big. Definitely Dilla, that's another one as far as like making your sound diverse. He makes the hard core hip-hop record, (then) he's flipping them up and producing for cats like (Erykah) Badu. His style, pretty much defined the so called "Neo-Soul" era. Let me think of somebody else; of course you've got Stevie (Wonder) and the different Motown producers like Norman Whitfield and cats like that. Quincy Jones is another one, that's another huge one. So I'm definitely leaning on him (Jones) more towards scoring and writing actual compositions so that you have different movements, different phases and different changes. I'm a real, real big music nerd when it comes to that type of thing. It's almost to where I don't even hear the lyrics, I'm paying so much attention to what's going on in the music.
Washington Informer: How has living and working in DC influenced you musically?
Zo!: It's given me a different look on it. When I first got here, it took me about three or four months to even make anything; just the new environment and trying to take everything in. The thing is, DC has a real dope nucleus of musicians as well. So I think the influence here, it's definitely more of a live instrumentation influence. It was different for me coming here because as a musician, I had to get used to being called in for gigs that was something new for me. In the D (Detroit), you're a musician normally you're with a crew and that's your crew and y'all do gigs together and that's it. Here, you know you can play with any group of cats. So, you know you just get a call and "Yo we need a keyboard to do this gig, you free?'' And then you just go play. You get around some of these top musicians man and you know, you get back home and you're ready to put something down or just sit down and practice for a few hours, just to keep your chops up.
Washington Informer: What are some of the instruments you play?
Zo!: My primary instrument is piano/keyboard, secondary would be bass guitar and my third would be drums because I've gigged on the drums before. My last instrument, my weakest, instrument is guitar. I call myself a studio guitarist, because you know you're able to start over and we recorded a lot of good stuff, but I haven't gigged on the guitar yet.
Washington Informer: I've read that you're also a music teacher. How do you find time to be a touring artist as well as a music teacher?
Zo!: I was doing it full time, I was at a special education high school in DC called Rock Creek Academy from '06 until this past August when the school shut down. You know what, I don't know where the time came from, I guess in that sense I guess I'm lucky that I'm a night owl, because I can actually function off of three or four hours of sleep. Because that's pretty much what it took to try to even maintain any type of balance in your life. Since the school shut down I'm giving private piano lessons, either face to face or via Skype. So, I'm still finding time, I still enjoy making a difference in people's lives. I really think that whatever gifts that I have musically, I want to pass it down. I think that, it would be really selfish to take that stuff to the grave with you.
Washington Informer: So teaching isn't just a "day job" for you?
Zo!: Absolutely, absolutely. You can find me sometimes, even at 2 and 3 o' clock (in the morning) just going through ITunes. I'll put a playlist on shuffle just to challenge myself, whatever comes up you gotta learn it and you gotta play it. A lot of times, it doesn't even really feel like work.
Washington Informer: Yeah, that's when it's good [laughs]. Doing something you like.
Zo!: Definitely, definitely.
Washington Informer: Going back to the teaching, in your opinion how important is music education in schools?
Zo!: I think its huge man. I think it's really messed up because as long as I can remember the arts and things like that have always been shunned and kinda pushed to the side and kinda looked at as not really important in schools. And of course, when the budgets are cut, (the arts) that's the first thing to go. Folks, who are typically inclined, normally do better in core, their core classes. There's so many different ways in your core classes; math, English, reading and social studies and things like that, you can incorporate the arts to help your kids to excel. I've personally seen kids that I've taught do complete 180's, not only in the classroom, but in their lives, because they're able to latch onto something that they do well. So it, really carries over man. I don't think a lot of people, even those who call themselves educators, really understand and don't realize how much of an impact, the arts period can have on a child's life.
Washington Informer: How did you start working with Foreign Exchange? Before you answer that, I know it kind of started out as a joke but that Love the 80's record you did with Phonte was great. Seriously, just on the strength of the album cover you guys had me with that one.
Zo!: [Laughs] I met Phonte back in December of '05, he was touring with Little Brother at the time. I was living in Michigan and I went to see them at the Blind Pig in Ann Arbor. Basically, what ended up happening was before we even met, I came out with an album that year called Re:Definition, Re:Definition was basically a remix project and on the album I remixed two Little Brother songs. On their message boards at the time, the justiceleague.com message boards, one of the dudes on there was like "Yo, I think Phonte heard the joint" or whatever I was like word? When I went to the show, I was like, let me see if I can catch him real quick and just, you know? Just dap him up, I had that whole little thing mapped out or whatever. We end up running into each other after the show, we introduced each other and he, and he was like "Yo, I know who you are" And I was, like, word! And he was like "Yeah, I got your album in my iPod". So we ended up exchanging information and a couple months later we were working on "Stepping Out" from ...just visiting, the vinyl joint. We started working on the 80's album and like you said, it was as a joke at first. But then I was like shoot, there's about to be some serious music. There's a studio chemistry, we're basically cut from the same cloth of music and listening to diverse stuff. While we were working on the'80s album, he was saying with the next Foreign Exchange record he wanted me to be involved in the live aspect of it.
Washington Informer: Tell me about Sy Smith. You guys do a joint show, how did this collaboration start?
Zo!: Me and Sy met through a mutual friend in Chicago, Duane Powell. Duane is a major catalyst, as far as spreading around underground soul music to the city of Chicago because he used to work at a big record spot there called Doctor Wax. The way he used to do it is, when people would come to the store that he would want you to talk to or meet or whatever, he would just call you. So one day, Sy came through there, I was already a fan of Sy's. So he called me, he was, like, "Yo, Sy is at the store man, you wanna talk to her?" So we get on the phone, we start talking or whatever, just chattin' it up, just lots of small talk. Next thing you know, Duane went out to LA, kickin' it with Sy, he was like yeah, "Sy told me" 'you know Zo's gonna produce something on my new album, he just don't know it yet.' " So we finally met face to face when she did a show at Bohemian Caverns (DC) and maybe a month or two after that we did "Crazy You". A month or two after that we did the "Greatest Weapon Of All Time". Sy's another one, she's super-duper professional, she's been around anybody who's anybody, whether in the studio or singing background for them. That type of thing is nothing, getting music sent to her, going into the studio, that's nothing. That's a day in the office, so anytime I send music to her I know it's in good hands. Matter of fact she just sent me a joint last week for my new album so I'm hyped up about it.
Washington Informer: You've worked with several artists. Who else would you like to work with?
Zo!: There's a few, one is at the top, that's actually one of my favorite R&B vocalist, Faith Evans. I've been a huge, huge, huge, Faith fan since her first album. Actually her first two albums are two of my favorites. I would love to work with Faith Evans just on some let's work from scratch, even if it's just one or two joints. I think that would be real dope. I know that's she's very talented vocally as well as songwriting; I would love to work with Faith. Another one would be Layla Hathaway, of course anything with The Roots, even just sitting in with them, that would be dope. Just to name a few so we're not interviewing until midnight [laughs].
Washington Informer: [Laughs] Your last album was SunStorm. Earlier, you mentioned that you were working on some stuff for a new album, what are you currently working on?
Zo!: Well right now, I'm about 25-plus tracks deep into this new solo album. It is the follow up to SunStorm, between there was ...just visiting three, but that was kinda was the prelude, this is the new solo album. We're looking to have it out at the end of this year, I don't have a working title for it as of yet, I'm sure it'll pop into my head pretty soon. People gonna like it [laughs].
Washington Informer: Are you going to keep it at 25 tracks or you going to cut it down?
Zo!: No, we're cutting that, we're cutting that on down.
Washington Informer: Are you singing on this project?
Zo!: I do not sing [laughs].
Washington Informer: [Laughs] Ok, for the people whom may have been living under a rock and have never seen Sy Smith and Zo! live, please tell them what they're missing.
Zo!: You know what, with us I think it's just a lot of fun man. A lot of people that I work with are also great friends of mine, so when we preform together it shows on stage. We're just not friends on stage and then we just go our separate ways or whatever after the show, this is fun for us. So, you're gonna get a lot of dope music, high energy and a lot of laughs. You gonna see us smiling and laughing while we're playing , just acting a fool man. I think that type of energy is needed at a live show. When folks come out we all gonna have a ball.

I'm trying to create a project with an image (map of Italy) that highlight any region on mouseover (rollover).
Everything is fine, and when I preview on firefox it looks great.
Problem is that when i export it (export with images in a folder), it creates some strange names of these files (ie: no title_r1_c1_d1), that is not recognized by other html softwares (joomla).
Is there any way to export these file names with another name?
The project is really long and it would be impossible to rename these files when the have allready been exported, so I need to find a solution to tell fireworks to export them in a right format.
Thanks in advance
---> Update:
I tryed to create a new documento with only 2 images, in order to edit files easily..
I renamed the files and now i see an empty tab: http://www.cavour.joomlahost.it/seleziona-la-zona.html.
It would be great if someone could help me...
Thanks in advance
Hi, thank you very mch for your help...
I could change the files name, following your advices...
Problem is that fireworks creates itself other portions of images, whose name is not recognized from my html editor....(no_title_s1_r1_c1)...
Do you think there's another way to do this map rollover?
Thank you so much
I'd suggest looking at the Export options (in the dialog that appears after choosing File > Export). For instance, maybe it would help to deselect "Include Areas without Slices".
In addition, you could experiment with the HTML Setup options (by clicking the Options button in the above dialog or by choosing File > HTML Setup). For example, in the Document Specific section, there are file naming options for slices.
Sorry, but there are a lot of variables and unknowns in what you're describing, and it's hard to narrow down what's happening. These are general suggestions.
North America
Europe, Middle East and Africa

School Board of Sarasota County Elects New Chair and Vice Chair
SARASOTA – The School Board of Sarasota County elected Jane Goodwin as chairwoman and Shirley Brown as vice chairwoman for the next 12 months. Chairmanship of the board rotates each November among the five members.
The decisions were made at the School Board's annual reorganization meeting on Tuesday (Nov. 20), held before the regular twice-monthly meeting. At the meeting, School Board members Caroline Zucker and Frank Kovach, who were reelected unopposed in June, were sworn in for new four-year terms by Judge Lee Haworth of the 12th Judicial Circuit Court.
Goodwin was elected to the School Board of Sarasota County in August 2010 and began serving in November of that year. She began her professional career as a high school teacher. She spent more than 20 years as a marketing representative for IBM, specializing in serving K-12 and post-secondary educational institutions. After moving to Venice in 1998, she joined the Sarasota Family YMCA as the director of Marketing and Community Relations. Goodwin was executive vice president of the Sarasota Home Builders Association in 2008-09.
She is a community volunteer leader in various organizations. She was active in Citizens for Better Schools (CBS) in 2002 and 2006, when that organization spearheaded successful voter campaigns for a referendum on an additional 1-mill property tax for schools. She chaired CBS in 2010, leading to 66-percent voter approval of the continuation of the levy.
Goodwin chairs the Oversight Committee for Any Given Child in Sarasota, a partnership with the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and local arts organizations to expand the range of arts education for students in grades K-8. She also serves on the YMCA Metropolitan Board of Directors and chairs the board of the Evalyn Sadlier Jones Branch of the Sarasota Family YMCA. She mentors an eighth-grade student through Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast. Her two grandchildren attend Gulf Gate Elementary School in Sarasota.
Vice Chairwoman Shirley Brown was elected to the School Board in November 2006. She served in the Florida House of Representatives from 1992 to 2000, representing District 69 as a Democrat.
