She's the one who should jump off the cliff for hurting him! But I was happy to learn that his family poured gravy, mud, and hot sauce all over her and her boy toy I could imagine how mad she was XD And when Tigress gets involved all bets are off heres no telling what shes goign to do :D and that so awesome so walked right over there and was like hey what are you doing having your arms around my Po, only I can do that :3 and when Po said he wouldn't date carla if she was the last girl on the earth, talk about a big burn, he doesnt want you Carla he wants his kitten Tigress :D Oh and bad move calling Tigress a monster you dont ever do that becuase if Tigress doesnt punch you somebody is :) and then we get to the slow dancing were the feelings of our two lovers were revealed to another, and for their first kiss to finally be shared with the others :3 Nothing better than a true loves kiss, it's the best thing there is :D and I would love to see a sequal if you want to do one, and if you do perhaps Tigress can help them in the battle of the bands :) |
Dark Angel 3/17/13 . chapter 4 Hello! I wanted to say that I loved your story. And if you write a sequel like you wrote at your story's end, can you please make Tigress sing in Battle of the Bands with the Outlaws? If you make it, I will be very happy.

tuxjim 3/16/13 . chapter 3 GOOD story so far... Please finish it with your usual style and grace, Shadow Lady (and I call you that because, age wise you are nearly there, but your writing shows a good deal of maturity in the way it is constructed). As always, I can't wait to get to the next chapter whether it is a 'finish' or just a continuation. And, again as always, I'm looking forward to any and all of your next (and other) stories. I REALLY enjoy your writing, no matter what the subject is (although I have thoroughly enjoyed your Kung Fu Panda stories). I forget what the first story of yours was that I read, although I think it might well have been a Kim Possible one. Whatever... it's getting late, and I hear my bed starting to call me and my eyelids are starting to droop. Catch you at the next referal in my mailbox. Take care and be well. Ja ne for now. "Tux" |
KungFuPandaFanatic 3/16/13 . chapter 3 Hell yeah WE ARE FAMILY! WOAH! Thats how we do it :D Awesome chapter my friend :) I loved that in the begeining we got some funny and some sad stories on Po and his family :) I thought the story where he carred for Stacey when she was sick and Po sang to her while making noodles for her , Po's just an awesoem panda like that though :) and I was glad i nthat one story where he told both Stacey and Zoey that goat was going out with both of him and gave that goat an awesome beatdownthats what a cheater gets! And dont worry Tigress Po wont let any girl have their arms around him except you and know you will make sure of that :) And when Po and the others came out for the music portion it was so awesome they all looked pretty badd ass and totally rocked that stage with their awesomeness, and it made me smile to see everyone dancing and singing along with the outlaws :) applause for the group that knows how to rock the we are family :D But just as everyone was having fun it looks like a sly fox has entered one that apparently wants to look like a well you know ;) Freaking Carla I already get the impression thats she only back becuase Po is the dragon warrior, well I got knews for you Carla you better get out before you get family mobbed or beaten down by a tiger becuase when you break her pandas heart you better pray she doesnt kill you, but we will see what goes down and maybe just to get carla out of there Tigress will tell her that she's Po's boyfriend now which hopefuly Po and Tigress will kiss then :D we will see though :3 |

Cookie M 2012 3/16/13 . chapter 1 And i have another idea! Po and Tigress have an argument during the reunion over some odd reason, after Tigress blurts out in the argument that she had feelings for him Po sings a song he wrote for Tigress and the band sing it with him. It may not be a rock song, but it's a love song. Then they start dating bla bla bla the get the picture bro :-) |
Cookie M 2012 3/16/13 . chapter 2 Great Chapter! Love the name for the band 'Outlaws' It has lots of Pazzaz! And i have a song they could sing! It's from Abandon All Ships Ft. Lena Katina. It's called 'Guardian Angel' Listen to it, it's Cool! It's rock and it's like Po is trying to express his feelings to Tigress! Just a suggestion bro :-) |
KungFuPandaFanatic 3/16/13 . chapter 2 Another awesome chapter my friend :D Looks like the whole ping family has arrived at the noodle shop :) I got to tell you they seem like the kind of family who is both awesome and funny :D I really love Joey acting so cool with his shades and such but thats the way he rools just chillin that a brazilin XD and I figured they would all figure that Tigress was Po's girlfriend but come on Po would not expect them to after all always tell them how great Tigress is it's kind of kind of a good thing that he hasnt told them though that he loves her otherwise the secret would get out and well I want Po himself to tell her that she loves him :3 And I never knew that Po played guitar, I wander what other awesome things he is hiding from us :D but anyways It's goign to be cool to see him play with his family band known as the outlaws cool name for a band by the way :) But cant wait to see how the reunion goes im thinking theres goign to be some laughs and twists and turns along with some confessions if you know what i mean ;) |

Michael Fry: Scotland's two greatest statesmen
ALEX Salmond shares many similarities with Henry Dundas – but it is just as well they never met, writes Michael Fry
IT IS great news for everybody interested in Scottish history that the papers of Henry Dundas have been secured for the nation, under a deal just announced by the National Records of Scotland.
These papers have long been available at General Register House in Edinburgh to anyone interested, but they always remained in the legal possession of the Dundas family. So there was a chance they might have had to sell their papers at some point, as old families have often been forced to do in order to meet their other commitments to the national heritage, such as maintaining a historic house and estate. And then the papers could have been lost to Scotland altogether, to end up in some cash-rich American archive.
Those who might think the money coming instead from the Scottish Government is being misspent should pause to reflect how much of the national heritage has already been lost when old families are forced to give up the unequal struggle against the hard times we live in. There are derelict architectural treasures all over Scotland showing the consequences. To point out the contrast I recommend anybody to visit Arniston House in Midlothian, where Althea Dundas-Bekker has lovingly restored the main residence still in the family's possession to its former glories.
She makes historical finds to this day. A few years ago she took down from the shelves of the library a manuscript volume written in Latin and showed it to me. I could make little of it, so I reported its existence to Alexander Broadie, professor of philosophy at Glasgow University. In a series of learned articles he is demonstrating that this is in effect the first great work of the Scottish Enlightenment. It is a major philosophical treatise by a Dundas, hitherto unknown to the world, from several decades before the Union of 1707. It will, I think, put paid to the notion that the Enlightenment was owed to the Union.
Here is the marvellous thing about the Melville papers (so called because the Dundases became Viscounts Melville). They take you right into the heart of a family that itself stood at the heart of affairs in Scotland at a time when so much about the nature of the modern nation, from its cultural life to its political life, was being determined. The Dundases were clannish, and operated as a unit to win and hold power. But that meant also that they had to care about how their kids were doing, or how the various siblings' marriages were working, because such matters might sooner or later affect their exercise of power. So this is an archive full of human insights, a refreshing contrast to the tedious statistical stuff served up as Scottish history by academics today.
I spent several years going through the papers in order to write my book, The Dundas Despotism, which deals with the government of Scotland by Henry Dundas and his son Robert from 1775 to 1832. This was the crucial period which determined whether Scotland was going to make it in the Union or not. The outcome of the Dundases' efforts was that Scotland did make it in the Union, and triumphantly. That might look from today's perspective like a dubious achievement. But would it have been better for Scotland to go the same road as Ireland and not to make it in the Union, condemning itself to a century of stagnation and poverty, eventually to revolution and partition? I hardly think so.
The papers show the Dundases operating at three levels. On the first level, they ran Scotland with high efficiency, if largely through the palm-greasing, glad-handing and backslapping that have become a basic mode of the country's politics. Henry Dundas would have made an excellent Labour secretary of state in the 20th century.
At the second level, the Dundases rose to the top of politics in the United Kingdom and stayed there. They were the first Scottish politicians to do that since 1707, but once they got to the top they did not pull up the ladders of advancement behind them. On the contrary, they let down more and more ladders, so that more and more brother Scots were able to ascend, make careers and do well out of the Union. Crucially, in this process the Scots came to be accepted as equals by the English, as the Irish never were.
And this was possible because, at the third level, the equality opened up the fabulous opportunities of the Empire. Henry Dundas was for 20 years in charge of the government's policy in India, as well as dealing with the affairs of the Americas, Africa and the rest of Asia. He ran the worldwide naval war crucial to the defeat of Napoleon. In all these fields of endeavour he laid down paths for the huge subsequent diaspora of his countrymen that even today maintains Scotland's interest in and interest to the rest of the globe. It was the ultimate line of defence against provinciality for a non-independent nation: without it, I doubt if we would now be contemplating independence.
For my money, Henry Dundas is far and away the greatest statesman that modern Scotland has ever produced. He outruns by a country mile the eight Scots who became British prime ministers, which he never did: from the Earl of Bute in the 18th century to Gordon Brown in the 21st, they were a pretty miserable lot. It is true that Dundas did not easily tolerate opposition. His usual way with his foes was to win, and if necessary to buy them over – only if everything else failed would he crush them. But all public men have their failings, against which it would be foolish not to weigh their successes.
In fact, the only modern Scottish politician who remotely compares with Henry Dundas is Alex Salmond. Note first the same success on three levels. Salmond is lord of all he surveys on the Scottish political scene. At the British level he is as well known and recognisable as any English public figure through his deft dealings with the media and the straight-talking contrast he presents with the dreary drips leading the big parties south of the Border. And he has consciously cultivated connections at the international level – even if, short of Scottish independence, he is not yet in much of a position to exploit them.
And then I see closer personal parallels between the two men. A bit too fat for their own good, they would if they met, I think, show a corresponding jowly joviality towards each other.
If I were there at the meeting I would, all the same, whisper in both their ears – for I like Alex Salmond, and I am sure I would have liked Henry Dundas – that they should on no account show each other their backs. Otherwise we might hear a "doingggg" as the dagger shuddered between the shoulder blades. And Scotland would be, would have been, much the poorer without them.

KATHMANDU: Two Indian children aged nine and six were pulled out alive along with their father and three others from the wreckage of a small plane that crashed near a tricky airport around 2,600m above sea level in northern Nepal on Monday, killing 15 of the 21 people on board, mostly Indians.
Officials said 13 Indians killed in the crash included the mother of the two. Seven of them were from Mumbai and one from Hyderabad. It was unclear where the rest were from and the airline didn't identify the dead.

Sales of crackers are up thanks to consumer interest in saving money by entertaining at home. According to SymphonyIRI Group's 2010 State of the Snack Industry Report, 44% of consumers entertain family and friends at home instead of going out. Many are feeding their guests crackers, with one in four (25%) preferring the snack over other options during special occasions/entertainment snack occasions, according to its findings.
Portable packs have also spurred sales of the grab-and-go snack, with crackers with filling faring especially well during the 52 weeks ending June 13, 2010. Dollar sales in the subcategory were up close to 20% compared with the previous year, maybe at the expense of matzoh crackers and saltines, which experienced a drop in sales (-5.8% and -4.6%, respectively). An increasing number of moms may be using crackers as lunchbox fillers, especially as 37% of consumers seek snacks that can be eaten on the go and 66% bring snacks from home to avoid paying more elsewhere, according to SymphonyIRI. Crackers also have a leg up on more indulgent cookies and candies, as 55% of consumers look to replace high-calorie snacks with healthier options.
Sales in the category were also driven by promotions, since crackers were one of the top ten most heavily promoted categories during the past year, according to Susan Viamari, editor of SymphonyIRI's Times & Trends report.

You Oughta Know: HP Byron Nelson Championship
- By Jason Sobel
- May 19, 2012 7:18 PM ET
IRVING, Texas – Here's everything that You Oughta Know entering Sunday's final round of the Byron Nelson Championship:
Third-round leader Jason Dufner is 1-for-3 in his career while playing with a 54-hole advantage, winning last month's Zurich Classic from that situation.
If he wins, Dufner would join Hunter Mahan as the only multiple winners on the PGA Tour so far this season.
Dufner's first seven rounds at this event were in the 70s, but he has since posted his last four rounds in the 60s, with a 69 in last year's final stanza and scores of 67-66-67 this week.
Dicky Pride will start the final round in a share of second place, seeking his second victory to follow the 1994 FedEx St. Jude Classic.
Should he win this week, Pride would overtake the PGA Tour record for longest time between victories, a span of 17 years, 9 months, 19 days. The current record is held by Robert Gamez, with a differential of 15 years, 6 months.
In 379 previous starts, Pride owns 17 top-10 finishes.
Dating to 2000, there have been seven international-born winners of the championship (2000-Jesper Parnevik, 2002-Shigeki Maruyama, 2003-Vijay Singh, 2004-Sergio Garcia, 2008-Adam Scott, 2009-Rory Sabbatini, 2010-Jason Day). After three rounds, three international-born players are in the top 10: Jason Day (T-2), Vijay Singh (5th) and Marc Leishman (T-6).
Day's lone previous PGA Tour victory also came here at the Byron Nelson Championship, back in 2010.
Coming off last week's Players Championship victory, Matt Kuchar is seeking his second straight title and the fifth of his career.
If Kuchar, currently tied for eighth place at 4-under, wins on Sunday, he would become the first player since Tiger Woods in August, 2009, to win on back-to-back weeks.

Drinal: Raid Design on an Unforgiving Stage
I expected fierce responses to yesterday's article about Drinal and the issues raiders have been facing in Harrow's End. I wrote about issues that players have faced since the expansion launched, with a focus on the issues that still seem to exist based on player reports in the two Drinal threads I linked on the EQ2 forums. It was absolutely my intention to push some buttons and try to get some traction on fixing the Boss of the Chains of Eternity expansion. As to whether I went too far, that will be up to the reader.
Let's get some clarifications out of the way...
Patch Kills Are Not New
In past Game Updates and Expansions, raid targets have been added that were quite simply unkillable due to design choices. Only after various patches were certain mobs even possible to ATTEMPT. And in the past, we often did not hear any word or announcement that our feedback was being heard; the only confirmation was a patch.
What people have latched onto in this situation is the tit-for-tat between designers and players on the EQ2 forums that have caused hard feelings on both sides and a serious breakdown in communication.
Tricky Treasure Chests
After reading the article, combined with the comic, the impression may have been given that there is still a 50-50 chance that you will not receive Loot for defeating Drinal. This has not been the case for a little over one month. Also, I've heard from at least one guild that during the time when Drinal's treasure chest was misbehaving, GMs went out of their way to make sure that players were awarded loot for successful kills. Still, chasing down a GM through Petitions can be a hassle.
Ignoring Scripts: Burning Through It
According to at least one another raid guild who spoke on condition of anonymity, a few of the issues described in yesterday's article, such as Drinal resetting at 14% and the stacking curses are attributable to burning through the fight while ignoring adds and other conditions such as the Souldrains. Drinal was never intended to be turn-and-burn easy so this may be a factor.
Zone Crashes
This is perhaps the biggest hair-pulling aspect of Harrow's End, and one that devs have been haunted and frustrated by.
Terrogaunt posted last week:
We have had the worst luck trying to find the cause of this crash. Fortunately, I did happen fix the part in code that was actually crashing when it happened, so that code should get to Live soon. It's just one of those bugs you can never reproduce, I guess.
and Gninja posted:
The zone crash issue is getting addressed by the code team as it required a build. I have already gotten the design side of the fix live but for it to fully go away both sides of the fix need to be there. We are working on getting it live asap.
A fix for the Zone Crashing in Harrow's End is slated for tomorrow morning (Wednesday, February 20th).
Drinal Going Forward and Yes, Devs Still Raid!
Gninja has also commented on the current state of affairs and his dedication to get the fight working properly:
Just a bit of clarification. The hate changing mechanic on Drinal is NOT a hate shuffle like Bastion or Oligar. It is a position drop on his target only. This may in some cases cause Drinal to drop to a pet but it only affects the one tank. Yes, this can currently happen to the tank that is about to get the Transfiguration buff. The player that gets the transfiguration buff also gets a large amount of added hate given to them that is added to combat arts so it should be relatively easy to get aggro fairly quickly providing you are doing more than just hitting positional snaps and praying. The failure condition of this effect also does not kill the tank that failed so it does not cause a full wipe if the tank can get aggro back quickly thereafter.
I know this is a sore subject with a large group of the raiding community and I have been holding off posting too much because it just seems to get folks posting more angry posts. Right now we are focused on getting the crash taken care of because its the largest problem currently. Once its on live and verified taken care of we can move on to some of the annoying factors of the fight but the fixes will not be rushed in as we don't want to break anything else with rushed fixes to annoyances.
For the record... Yes, I have fought the fight on live and yes, I see some of the frustrations being called out here. I very much want to remove some of the luck factors of the fight as it currently is.
Having met Carlos (Gninja), Ken (Terrogaunt), and so many other devs at SOE Live and having insightful and inspiring conversations with them, it is not easy for me to write these type of articles. In this case, there was a breaking point, and I passed it. But I'm also going to give developers the chance to make it right.

Evaluating FOCI In The Context Of An M&A Transaction
By Marko W. Kipa
We all now realize that, contrary to the pronouncements of certain pundits, the world is not economically flat. But it is undeniable that its citizens and businesses are more economically connected than ever before. One manifestation of this interconnectedness is the increasing number of cross-border acquisitions of business enterprises. In most cases these transactions do not become the subject of public discussion or detailed government scrutiny. But when foreign entities seek to purchase U.S. government contractors who perform classified national security work and therefore hold facility security clearances ("FCLs"), the U.S. Government is anxious to know, among other things, the extent to which the company is the subject of foreign ownership, control or influence ("FOCI"). Being under FOCI can sound the death knell for a company's ability to perform classified work, with consequent loss of business that may be critical to the company's continued status as a going concern. But that outcome can often be avoided by development and submission of a FOCI mitigation plan which, if accepted either as submitted or modified, can enable the company to continue performance of national security work.

When I look back at my life nowadays, which I sometimes do, what strikes me most forcibly about it is that what seemed at the time most significant and seductive, seems now most futile and absurd. For instance, success in all of its various guises; being known and being praised; ostensible pleasures, like acquiring money or seducing women, or traveling, going to and fro in the world and up and down in it like Satan, explaining and experiencing whatever Vanity Fair has to offer.
In retrospect, all these exercises in self-gratification seem pure fantasy, what Pascal called, "licking the earth."

Things To Know Before You Come
Accessibility The Castillo is primarily an "out-of-doors" park with no visitor center. Facilities: The parking area, lower level of the fort, and restrooms are wheelchair accessible; the upper gun deck however can only be reached by stairs. As of April 24, 2013, the restrooms are temporarily closed due to renovations. Interpretive Services: A written park history is available in English. Self-guided tour brochures are available in English, Spanish, German, Japanese, Russian, Dutch, Italian, and French. The park orientation video is in English. Crowds The Castillo is busiest on weekends, holidays and during the spring school visitation months. In fact, we've created visitation charts for recent years which graphically display how busy it is each day of the year. You might want to take a look at them when planning your visit. Getting Around The Castillo, like most of downtown St. Augustine, is primarily a pedestrian area. Walking is the best way to visit the historic district which is about one mile long by 1/2 mile wide. Long term (all day) parking is available for a fee in the city parking garage just behind the Visitor Information Center which is located on the corner of West Castillo and South Castillo Drives, across from the Castillo headquarters building. Public Transportation There is limited public transportation in St. Augustine. However, private companies operate tour trains, horse carriages, and bicycle and motor scooter rental stores. Pets Pets are not allowed inside the structure of the Castillo de San Marcos though they are allowed in the exterior areas of the park. Pets must be kept on a leash at all times. Please be responsible and courteous of others when bringing any pets into the park. |

In 2000, six million 3D Pulfrich glasses were distributed to viewers in the United States and Canada for an episode featuring an extinct giant shark, which had 3D segments.[1]
In 2005, Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman from the Discovery Channel series MythBusters hosted Shark Week, and a two-hour MythBusters "Jaws Special" was premiered for the event.
In 2006, Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs hosted, and two Dirty Jobs episodes were featured, titled "Jobs that Bite" and "Jobs that Bite…Harder". Also during the week, the Silver Spring, Maryland, headquarters of the Discovery Channel was outfitted to resemble a giant shark.[2]
In 2007, Discovery Channel celebrated Shark Week's 20th Anniversary hosted by Les Stroud, host of Survivorman. The 20th anniversary included the launch of Sharkrunners, a video game that uses GPS data from tagged sharks in the Pacific Ocean.
Shark Week 2008 ran from July 27 to August 2 and was hosted by both the MythBusters and Mike Rowe.[3][4] Both a new MythBusters shark special and a shark-themed episode of Dirty Jobs premiered for the event.
2009's Shark Week began the evening of August 2.
Shark Week 2010, hosted by The Late Late Show's Craig Ferguson, began on August 1 and featured six brand-new shark specials.[5] It was advertised by the second appearance of the giant inflatable shark attached to the Discovery Channel building, now nicknamed 'Chompie'.[2] Shark Week 2010 was rated the most viewed Shark Week ever with 30.8 million unique people.[6] Shark Week is now considered the longest running program event on cable.[7]
Shark Week 2011, hosted by Andy Samberg, began on July 31. It featured seven specials.[5]
Shark Week 2012, hosted by Philip DeFranco, started August 12 at 8 PM CST. After being absent in 2011, 'Chompie' the giant shark is once again being displayed on the Discovery Channel Building.[2] To honor the series' 25th anniversary, viewers were encouraged to vote via Twitter or Facebook on which item a mechanical megalodon shark would crush with its hydraulic jaws in the "Shark Week Chompdown".[8] DeFranco was thought of as a lower profile host for Shark Week than past hosts[9] and annoying.[10]

Born and Raised
John Mayer
Soft Rock
Released May 22, 2012
John Mayer has returned with his fifth full-length studio album in Born and Raised. His latest record is a total departure from all of his previous work. Born and Raised is basically John growing up and coming of age. By the time an artist releases a fifth artist, they usually either become mainstream or just sell out by choice. This is not the case for Mayer. He continues to dish out high quality music, year after year. This is rare in music these days and it's nice to see someone accomplish such a difficult feat. Mayer had what I would call a "hangover" after the brilliant Continuum, with his 2009 album Battle Studies. I'm not saying Battle Studies was bad, because it wasn't it, it was just his most generic release. With Born and Raised, Mayer escapes from his little slump and delivers big, even though his sound may have changed a bit. This is a record both long time fans and new fans will enjoy.
I was skeptical when the single off the album "Shadow Days" was released. I wasn't too fond of the tune, as it sounded too generic and quite honestly, a little bland. My stance hasn't changed much, but it's one of those songs you have to listen to over and over again to appreciate it. It is definitely not one of the best on the album, in my opinion. As far as the album as whole goes, it's filled with soothing melodies and honest pleas. In "Something Like Olivia", John seems to be telling a story about a woman who he thinks is so beautiful, a woman he respects, and he is a little jealous of the man who gets to sleep by her side. The song has Mayer's fingerprints all over it with those signature guitar riffs. Another track I want to point out is "Love Is a Verb". The lyrics are up front and honest, with John simply saying that love is an action, not a "thing". It is one of the most laid back and relaxing songs on the record, despite being rather short. "Speak For Me" is another stand-out number, with that "road trip" or "vacation" vibe. It's something you just wanna listen to while driving down the road headed to God knows where, because it doesn't matter, with this relaxing little tune. "Born and Raised", the title track, is a slow, honest song that clearly shows John's dedication to what he does. The lyrics are a coming of age for Mayer and scream honesty and a sense of bittersweet sadness. It is a very complex tune, with many different instruments, even a harmonica that gives it a Western feel. How could I forget "Age of Worry"? This is one of the best tunes on the record, offering signature John Mayer lyrics about not worrying about things and just pressing forward, with a catchy chorus to boot. The instrumentation on this track is some of the best. It sounds like a little parade anthem that will no doubt be stuck in your head after a few listens.
Overall, John Mayer delivers one of his best albums to date with Born and Raised, and will receive praise from critics and the general public alike, because it's a high quality product from one of the best singer-songwriters of this generation. Mayer proves once again why he is one of the best at what he does, with a winning fifth album that is diverse in so many ways. The album contains fantastic instrumentation, trademark John Mayer lyrics and vocals, solid production and a whole lot of heart and dedication. It's a shame John can't tour at the moment because of his throat problem, but you should look forward to hearing him when he gets better, because he has new songs to sing and new fans to claim. If you like music at all, there's no reason not to like John Mayer. The man is a musical genius and continues to improve in different ways. It's been a long time since "Your Body Is A Wonderland", but Mayer hasn't stopped impressing. Born and Raised is an indicator that Mayer is still in his prime, regardless of his new hair cut and funny looking hat.
Highly Recommended

A Randomized Controlled Trial OfPlacebo Acupuncture vs Real AcupunctureGreg Goddard, DDSDaniela Albers, DDSJaime Guachalla, DDS
ABSTRACTBackground Placebo acupuncture is difficult to perform because the patient can see and feel the depth of the needle. In addition, the placement of a needle in any position elicits a biological response that may complicate the interpretation of the studies.Objective To determine if study participants can differentiate real acupuncture treatment from placebo acupuncture.Design, Setting, and Patients Forty healthy volunteers (19 men and 21 women) from Universidad Mayor in Santiago, Chile, were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups: real acupuncture with a foam pad or placebo acupuncture with a foam pad using a blunted acupuncture needle that only touched the skin. Intervention The acupuncture needle was blunted and went through a foam pad (that was stuck temporarily to the skin of the patient at Hegu point, LI 4). The needle was placed there for 15 minutes with stimulation (rotation) every 5 minutes.Main Outcome Measure Volunteers answered a brief questionnaire indicating whether they thought they had received real or placebo acupuncture.Results Twenty subjects received real acupuncture; 80% (16/20) correctly identified getting real acupuncture and 20% (4/20) believed they received placebo acupuncture instead. Twenty subjects received placebo acupuncture; 60% (12/20) correctly identified placebo acupuncture, and 40% (8/20) believed they had received real acupuncture instead. There was no significant difference between the type of acupuncture the participants received (real or placebo) and what they believed they received (x2 = 1.07; P.30).Conclusion The placebo acupuncture method used in this study may be valid in future studies to establish a control (placebo) group.KEY WORDSAcupuncture, Placebo, Control Group, Blunted Needle, Randomized Controlled Trial
INTRODUCTIONIn 1997, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in a consensus development statement, provided an assessment of the use and effectiveness of acupuncture for a variety of conditions such as postoperative dental pain, myofascial pain, and headache. In addition, it was established that acupuncture is an effective complementary and alternative medicine.1Studies have shown the use of acupuncture to be effective for the treatment of many disorders and illnesses such as temporomandibular disorders,1-3 muscle pain, chronic pain, and headache.1-4 In a short-term pain-reduction study of acupuncture for chronic orofacial pain, Goddard et al2 found that acupuncture provided a significant short-term pain reduction in patients with chronic orofacial pain. In a meta-analysis of 14 randomized controlled trials of acupuncture for chronic pain, Patel et al5 found that most results favored acupuncture. Despite the number of positive findings, effectiveness of acupuncture is still questionable because of a lack of control groups in the studies.Opioid peptides are released during acupuncture and it is claimed that this could be the explanation for the analgesic affects of acupuncture.1 Cho et al6 used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the effects of acupuncture in the central nervous system. They found that the anterior cingulate cortex and thalamic areas were activated because of pain stimulation, and a decrease of these areas was noted when acupuncture was performed. In addition, alteration of the secretion of neurotransmitters and neurohormones and changes in the regulation of blood flow, both centrally and peripherally, have been documented.1Placebo acupuncture is difficult to perform because the patient can see and feel the depth of the needle. Lao et al7 described a placebo acupuncture technique in which the patient had his/her eyes covered and the placebo needle was taped on the hand and connected to a wire with a flashing light. With this technique, subjects were not able to distinguish between real and placebo acupuncture, but this method seemed too complicated. Other studies tend to use sham acupuncture (acupuncture in areas not recognized as acupuncture points2) as a control group, but Goddard et al2 found that reduction of pain due to a noxious stimulus (i.e., needling) might not be specific to the location of the stimulus. In addition, the placement of a needle in any position elicits a biological response that may complicate the interpretation of the studies. Sham acupuncture seemed to produce some of the same biological efects that are produced by acupuncture.1 The purpose of this study was to determine if subjects could differentiate a simple placebo acupuncture technique from a real acupuncture treatment. During this treatment, the acupuncture needle only pricked the skin without penetrating it. For this, the needle was blunted and went through a foam pad (that was stuck temporarily to the skin of the patient at Hegu point); this foam pad helped to hold the needle and gave no chance for the patient to see the penetration of the needle and realize which method was used (real or placebo acupuncture). The hypothesis was that subjects would not be able to discriminate between the real acupuncture and the placebo method, validating it for future use as an accurate control. MATERIALS AND METHODSTarget PopulationForty volunteers, 21 men and 19 women, were recruited from students at the Universidad Mayor, Santiago, Chile, to participate in this study. Inclusion criteria included age of at least 18 years and never having had experienced acupuncture. Exclusion criteria were pregnancy, the presence of coagulopathies or vascular diseases, and being needle-phobic.
