RICE (medicine)
RICE is a mnemonic for a treatment method for soft tissue injuries which is an acronym for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation.[1][2][3] When used appropriately, recovery duration is usually shortened and discomfort minimised.[citation needed]
RICE is considered a first-aid treatment, rather than a cure for soft tissue injuries. The aim is to manage discomfort and internal bleeding.[4]
Primary four terms[edit]
Rest is a key component of repairing the body. Without rest, continual strain is placed on the affected area, leading to increased inflammation, pain, and possible further injury. Additionally, some soft tissue injuries will take longer to heal without rest. There is also a risk of abnormal repair or chronic inflammation resulting from a failure to rest. In general, the period of rest should be long enough that the patient is able to use the affected limb with the majority of function restored and pain essentially gone.[citation needed]
Ice is excellent at reducing the inflammatory response and the pain from heat generated.[5] A good method is ice 20 minutes of each hour. Other recommendations are an alternation of ice and no-ice for 15–20 minutes each, for a 24–48 hour period.[6] To prevent localised ischemia or frostbite to the skin, it is recommended that the ice be placed within a towel before wrapping around the area.[citation needed]
Exceeding the recommended time for ice application may be detrimental, as it has been shown to delay healing.[7]
Compression aims to reduce the edematous swelling that results from the inflammatory process. Although some swelling is inevitable, too much swelling results in significant loss of function, excessive pain and eventual slowing of blood flow through vessel restriction.[citation needed]
An elastic bandage, rather than a firm plastic bandage (such as zinc-oxide tape) is required. Usage of a tight, non-elastic bandage will result in reduction of adequate blood flow, potentially causing ischemia. The fit should be snug so as to not move freely, but still allow expansion for when muscles contract and fill with blood.
Compression stockings are a viable option to manage swelling with graded compression. These garments are especially effective post-operatively and are used in virtually all hospitals to manage acute or chronic swelling, such as congestive heart failure.[citation needed]
Elevation aims to reduce swelling by increasing venous return of blood to the systemic circulation. This will result in less edema which reduces pain.[citation needed]
Variations of the acronym are sometimes used, to emphasize additional steps that should be taken. These include:
- "HI-RICE" - Hydration, Ibuprofen, Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation
- "PRICE" - Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation[8][9][10]
- "PRICE" - Pulse (Typically Radial or Distal), Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation
- "PRICES" - Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, and Support
- "PRINCE" - Protection, Rest, Ice, NSAIDs, Compression, and Elevation[11]
- "RICER" - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, and Referral[12]
- "DRICE" - Diagnosis, Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation
- "POLICE" - Protection, Optimal Loading, Ice, Compression, and Elevation [13]
As RICE and its variations work[citation needed] by reducing blood flow to the injured area, some people argue that for some types of injuries (such as ligaments and tendons) a protocol that increases blood flow, such as MEAT (Movement, Exercise, Analgesics and Treatments) should be used instead.[14][unreliable medical source?]

Ten months after 13-year-old Jaliek Rainwalker disappeared in Greenwich, the Find Jaliek Task Force is honoring him. Kaitlyn Ross has the story.
GUILDERLAND, N.Y. -- "I keep hope, but that hope is dwindling day by day," said Barbara Reeley, Jaliek Rainwalker's foster grandmother.
Ten months after Jaliek's disappearance, the Find Jaliek Task Force is trying to keep his memory alive by donating children's books at the beginning of this school year. Twenty books are being given to the Guilderland Public Library and 25 will be given to Westmere Elementary School where Jaliek was a student.
Reeley said, "Jaliek was a very special child who rather than play on the computer or watch TV, a lot of times he'd curl up with a book for hours."
The library specifically requested books on adoption and foster care to educate families in the area about those options, and many were just Jaliek's favorites.
"You can see him here curled up with The Golden Compass, and he just loved to read," said Reeley.
The book donation is the latest in a string of activities dedicated to Jaliek. Last month, they celebrated what would have been his 13th birthday at the Washington County Fair.
Reeley said, "I miss Jaliek every day, and as it gets longer and longer, my heart just breaks every day, and I no longer think he's alive."
Reeley said she often finds herself referring to Jaliek in the past tense, though the investigation is still open and police are still actively looking for the 13-year-old.
"It's been worked five days a week by New York State Police, Greenwich police," said Reeley.
Just last week, dive teams were searching in Watervliet and South Troy.

Artist Janice Elkins to Speak on "Iterations" Oct. 18
Oak Park resident Janice Elkins has been a painter for more than 22 years. Her artwork has been shown nationally and internationally. Her latest exhibit titled "Iterations: 22 Years of Self Referential Work," shows how she uses the figure to express and share revelations about herself, in particular, and humanity in general. "Recently, I have looked over my oeuvre of the past 22 years and see that I have done a number of paintings involving the figure – many androgynous, but not all. Some are small series and some are random single pieces," notes Janice. "Some of the figures are mysterious. Some of the figures are enigmatic. And some are funny."
"On one level, the figures are self revelatory, although what they are revealing is often pretty obscure. Even to me. Of course on another level they speak to the human condition. I am expressing and sharing my feelings about the mystery of my life and of life in general," Janice concludes.
See "Iterations" in the Main Library Art Gallery through October 31. Janice will do a 15-minute discussion of her work on Thursday, October 18 at 12:15 pm in the Art Gallery. The exhibit is open seven days a week during regular library hours. The demonstration and exhibit are free and open to the public.
More About Janice Elkins
Janice Elkins has a studio, complete with a gallery, Gallery Pink, on Harrison Street in Oak Park. In this location she shows her work and the work of other artists. Over the years, her work has involved series of the city, of nature, and abstract work.

text: Max Hanson (Jonathan Jackson), a popular high school student with considerable artistic and athletic talent, finds himself under pressure from everyone--especially his parents--to focus exclusively on art and to give up ice hockey. The only person who apparently harbors no judgmental attitudes towards Max is a teenage girl named Molly (Carly Pope), with whom he falls in love. Unfortunately, Molly is "into" wild parties and drugs--and before long, so is Max. As he sinks deeper and deeper into the morass of heroin addiction, Max seems to be beyond redemption . . . and far beyond the influence of his caring but domineering mother Sophie (JoBeth Williams). Posing a number of tough questions, but wisely offering no easy answers, the made-for-TV Trapped in a Purple Haze originally aired on April 17, 2000. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Civil Rights Act of 1964
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is the nation's benchmark civil rights legislation, and it continues to resonate in America. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin. Passage of the Act ended the application of "Jim Crow" laws, which had been upheld by the Supreme Court in the 1896 case Plessy v. Ferguson, in which the Court held that racial segregation purported to be "separate but equal" was constitutional. The Civil Rights Act was eventually expanded by Congress to strengthen enforcement of these fundamental civil rights.
Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division |
The House Judiciary Committee held a series of hearings on the proposed legislation during the summer of 1963. The proposed bill was amended during the committee process to broaden the scope of protections. The changes strengthened President Kennedy's original proposal in response to the tumultuous summer of 1963,which saw several incidents of racially motivated violence across the South. The House Judiciary Committee approved the legislation on October 26, 1963, and formally reported it to the full House on November 20, 1963, just two days before President Kennedy was assassinated. On November 27, 1963, President Lyndon Johnson asserted his commitment to President Kennedy's legislative agenda, particularly civil rights legislation. The House of Representatives passed a final version of the Civil Rights Act on February 10, 1964.
The bill came before the Senate in February 1964. Because the Senate Judiciary Committee failed to act on proposed civil rights legislation just seven years earlier, Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield filed a procedural motion to prevent the Civil Rights Act of 1964 from being referred to the Committee. Despite opposition to the motion from Senators opposed to the Civil Rights Act, Mansfield successfully prevented the bill from being referred to the Committee. The Senate began debate on the proposal on March 30, 1964. Senator Edward Kennedy, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, dedicated his first speech on the floor of the U.S. Senate to the consideration of the Civil Rights Act. Senator Kennedy would go on to become the longest serving member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
After a 54-day filibuster of the legislation, a bipartisan group of Senators introduced a compromise bill. The legislation enjoyed enough Senate support to end the stalemate, and was ultimately passed on June 19, 1964, by a vote of 73 to 27. On July 2, 1964, the House voted to adopt the Senate-passed legislation, rather than insisting on a conference of the bill. President Johnson signed the bill into law that very afternoon. The Civil Rights Act paved the way for future anti-discrimination legislation, including the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Walking Through Doors Makes You Forget Things
What was I just doing? "Writing." Ooooooh, right. Writing what? "Probably dino-erotica." So true.
According to recent experiments conducted at the University of Notre Dame (the same school that awarded Quasimodo a degree in bell-ringing), passing through a doorway makes it harder to remember WTF you came in to do in the first place. Well, maybe you're not just stupid after all!
New research from University of Notre Dame Psychology Professor Gabriel Radvansky suggests that passing through doorways is the cause of these memory lapses.
"Entering or exiting through a doorway serves as an 'event boundary' in the mind, which separates episodes of activity and files them away," Radvansky explains."Recalling the decision or activity that was made in a different room is difficult because it has been compartmentalized."
You know what else makes it hard to remember things? The booze. Speaking of which -- anybody seen my laptop? "You're typing on it." HAHA -- I'm f***ing typing on it! Jesus my brain must be a slushy.

Gas-on-Gas Discounting: Still a Zero-Sum Game
Gas-on-Gas Discounting: Still a Zero-Sum Game
Captive shippers still face rate hikes without reward under the FERC's new rule on short-term pipeline capacity.
In its final rule issued on short-term gas pipeline capacity, announced Feb. 9 in Order No. 637,[Fn.1] the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission squanders a precious opportunity to end a discrimination inherent in its pipeline rate discounting policy.
In practice, that policy permits interstate pipelines to raise rates for captive customers to offset discounts they give to other customers that enjoy access to competing interstate pipelines. The theory behind this privilege is simple. The pipelines justify their discounts on the claim that all customers, including non-favored customers that get no discounts or lesser discounts, will benefit. How? The benefit, it is said, comes from an increase in units of service provided - a result of the discounting.
Alas, that common theory rests on a mistaken assumption. Not one more dekatherm flows in the interstate pipeline grid because of this pipeline-on-pipeline (or "gas-on-gas") discounting. Instead, one pipeline's increased units of service merely other pipeline loads; their combined units of service do not increase. Furthermore, the FERC's answer of adjusting ratemaking throughput[Fn.2] to recoup such discounts discriminates against non-favored customers because their higher rates subsidize discounts to the favored customers. The extra units of gas are not real. The gas-on-gas discounting emperor has no clothes.
The FERC's 1998 Notice of Inquiry,[Fn.3] heralding the Final Rule, asked two questions relevant to this issue. First: Do these discount-related rate adjustments unfairly affect captive customers (those whose short-term demands do not vary with price)? Second: What constitutes a reasonable limit on the extent to which pipelines can recover the costs of their discounts? For gas-on-gas discounting, fairness dictates two straight-forward answers: (1) "yes," and (2) "no rate adjustments are reasonable." Yet the Final Rule leaves those questions dangling, noting only that the FERC is "still considering ... whether to permit discount adjustments."[Fn.4]
While the Final Rule takes a pass, gas-on-gas rate prejudice against captive customers endures. The Final Rule's standard gas-on-gas regulatory model remains open to challenge, whether at the FERC by complaint as "pernicious,"[Fn.5] in pipeline rate case hearings, or in a later court appeal. Instead of waiting for such a challenge, the FERC should repair the gas-on-gas standard model.
The Policy: Blind Faith in Supply-Side Subsidy
Since opening access to the interstate grid in 1985, the FERC has allowed pipelines to discount their transportation services at will and then to regain those discounted dollars by commensurate adjustments lowering the volume of throughput that is entered in the ratemaking formula, thus raising rates. The FERC argues such subsidized discounting (by customers not awarded the discounts), including subsidized gas-on-gas discounts, benefits all customers by allowing a pipeline to maximize actual physical throughput, thus spreading fixed costs over "more units of service."[Fn.6]
The Final Rule acknowledges that pipelines exercise market power through such selective discounting at rates below the FERC-set maximum rate ("in effect price discriminating").[Fn.7] Nevertheless, the Final Rule then sets out the standard, broad-brush rationale that increased units of service, leading to higher annual

Pain Management
Oprah.com | January 17, 2007
When it comes to managing pain, patients have many options available to them—and suffering through the pain doesn't have to be one of them. Dr. Oz talks to pain specialist Dr. Paul Christo from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine about different types of pain and how to treat them.
There are a variety of different levels of pain, Dr. Christo says. Acute pain, he explains, is believed to be a protective mechanism that helps our bodies. For example, it causes you to withdraw your hand when you touch a hot stove. Chronic pain, on the other hand, develops somewhere between three to six months of having persistent pain. Neuropathic pain relates to pain that persists for months even after the injury heals, he says. This pain is derived from the nerves and spinal cord, and most likely the brain, and is described as a burning, numbing or gnawing sensation.
Although chronic and neuropathic pain can be very difficult to treat, Dr. Christo says it's important that patients seek treatment before the pain worsens. He stresses the importance of accessing a pain specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
Back pain:
A lot of back pain is acute, Dr. Christo says. If someone strains their back, he recommends they see their primary care physician first. Dr. Christo suggests an analgesic or an anti-inflammatory agent for acute back pain states.
If the back pain persists for more than three to six months, seek counsel from a pain specialist, Dr. Christo says. Also, back pain in conjunction with shooting leg pain should be evaluated very quickly. Dr. Christo says patients should seek restorative physical therapy techniques to stretch and strengthen their lower back, as well as to learn how to properly position their back as they move. Analgesics can also provide relief, he says.
For all types of back pain, Dr. Christo says acupuncture can be quite effective in relieving pain. When acupuncture needles are placed into the skin, endorphins, naturally occurring opioids, are released in the spinal fluid. In addition, a couple of other neurochemicals are released in the central nervous system, he says. Biofeedback, guided imagery techniques and relaxation techniques can also be very effective in terms of a human being's control over their own pain, Dr. Christo says.
Headaches (tension or migraines):
Dr. Christo recommends relaxation and biofeedback techniques, acupuncture, as well as analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents.
Joint pains (sprains):
Dr. Christo says heat therapy, analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents help relieve pain. Limit use of the injured ligament at first, but maintain function to prevent disuse and atrophy.
Belly pain, stomach aches:
Dr. Christo cautions against medication as a first line of treatment, as it can mask the cause of the pain, which is typically harder to self-diagnose. Seek professional help.
A little known fact is that the lifetime risk of developing shingles is about 20 percent, and those who reach 85 have a 50 percent chance of developing this painful disease. Dr. Christo says there are numerous treatments for postherpetic neuralgia (pain that persists after the shingles rash has healed), related to a class of medicines called tricyclic antidepressants, which are administered at low doses. Opioids or anticonvulsants can also be used for treatment.

New York, NY - In Bosnia in the 1990s, "Islamic militants" and "Western humanitarians" fought on the same side. Foreign Islamic fighters formed some of the best units in the ragtag Bosnian army. Like Western leftists in the Spanish Civil War, they had answered calls for assistance from beleaguered comrades in another country. Alongside UN peacekeepers, with cover from NATO's air forces, and supported by legions of human rights activists, the foreign fighters, the Bosnian army and their Croatian allies did their best to hold off the Serbs. The outcome in Bosnia was ambiguous, in large measure because of the unwillingness of the West to fully commit its forces to the fight against ethnic fascism. This unwillingness stood in stark contrast not only to Westerners of an earlier generation who went off to Spain to fight and drive ambulances, but also to the Muslim fighters from faraway places who gave their lives in the cause of a free Bosnia.
"Many Muslims see themselves as victims of the same kind of humanitarian crimes that so concern Western human rights activists."
This same alliance between a militant Western humanitarianism and Islamic fighters reappeared in Libya. Gaddafi and his murderous regime were their common enemy. Many may choose to see such unexpected couplings as merely alliances of convenience, that really Western humanitarians and radical Islamists have diametrically opposed goals. This is to ignore a significant dimension of the appeal of militant Islam, one that Faisal Devji has sought to draw attention to in his provocative and illuminating book, The Terrorist in Search of Humanity. Many Muslims see themselves as victims of the same kind of humanitarian crimes that so concern Western human rights activists. Muslims have been the victims of dictatorships and their secret police and death squads; they have been subjected to massacres and extra-judicial proceedings; they are not treated with respect and dignity; and they are persecuted for their beliefs. These are precisely the kind of causes that gave birth to the global human rights movement. In circumstances of oppression and injustice, Muslims appear as victims of crimes against humanity. The militants are merely those who choose not to be victims and take up arms. Many of us see no little justice in the militants' cause as they fight against foreign occupation and murderous dictators, even if we do not always agree with their methods or ultimate aims.
An unlikely allianceThis alliance between Muslim militant and Western humanitarian, which is not as strange as it seems, has reappeared in Syria. As the Western powers work alongside the Arab League to impose sanctions and pass UN resolutions, Muslim militants have issued a call to arms. The Muslim Brotherhood of Jordan announced a jihad against the Assad regime, as has al-Qaeda. A new Anbar Awakening is underway as Iraqis now funnel arms to Syrian insurgents. Foreign militants may have been responsible for the recent bombings in Aleppo and Damascus.Meanwhile, militant Western humanitarians wish they too could have a jihad in Syria as they did in Libya. All are agreed that a regime willing to kill its own people in such numbers and to sow dangerous sectarian division in the cause of its own survival must go. Basic human values should define the future for Syria. Some analysts see in Syria the danger of a regional sectarian war that was so narrowly averted in the worst years in Iraq. They may well be right. Western leaders and militaries fear the consequences of attacking yet another Muslim country, while their citizens have tired of years of war amid broken economies.Yet the potential alliance of militant and humanitarian offers an opportunity an exhausted West, blinded by its own righteousness, may fail to see, much less grasp. It is an opportunity of global proportions that only enlightened and confident statesmanship could hope to realise. The War on Terror has been fought to a costly, hurting stalemate. The West failed to achieve its aims in Iraq and it will fail in Afghanistan. Yet, it has utterly decimated the ranks of Islamic militants around the world and daily demonstrates its power to carry on doing so.
Osama bin Laden failed to achieve his goal of igniting a worldwide Muslim uprising. His self defeating methods horrified Muslims and Westerners alike, while his dream of a Salafi utopia turned Muslim against Muslim and did not offer an attractive political goal to the masses. Syria offers the opportunity to find again the shared ground between Islam and the West, with democracy, dignity and respect for human rights as the common goal. The West should reach out to the Muslim Brotherhoods of Jordan and elsewhere on the basis that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". On this same basis, militant Islam should make common cause with Western humanitarians. Such a surprising move on the part of the West would earn the respect and appreciation of Muslims around the world, reducing the anti-Western feeling that leads to terror. At the same time, it would allow militant Islam to reshape its political objectives in ways that are compatible with democracy and human rights and the near universal support these principles command. It is these goals, after all, for which the Syrian people are fighting. In this kind of way, Islamic militants can turn themselves into "freedom fighters" rather than "terrorists" in the eyes of the world. To do so, they must commit to fight as ordinary insurgents in the Free Syrian Army. In so doing, they would articulate themselves to a cause which has near-universal support and to political goals shared by peoples everywhere. Perhaps they might even inspire some Western humanitarians to join them in the field in Syria as foreign volunteers.

Social media strategy
Brands often engage in social media activity without considering how it fits into their overall business objectives. Facebook fan pages, Twitter accounts and business blogs take just a few minutes to set up. But businesses risk undermining all marketing efforts if conversations are quickly abandoned; content is unmonitored; or brand values are undermined.
Increasing the success of your marketing campaign
At immediate future, we know that social media initiatives are more effective when fully integrated into an overall marketing strategy rather than used as a standalone tactic.
So we amplify your offline marketing message by creating positive reviews, comments and conversations around your product or service. We use social media to tell brand stories, share information, and deep dive into product details. And we use it to build relationships with fans and influencers to raise awareness, increase brand engagement and encourage purchase.
And we have a proven model for determining key performance indicators which either demonstrate brand or business value or, where possible, clearly show ROI.
How does social media complement your marketing activity? Get in touch.
Ruth Speakman, Head of PR, Sony Europe: "I look for a PR agency that can actually teach me something new, after over a decade in the industry, and immediate future does just that."

Oh, an awesome thing happened! On this messageboard, this troll said something truly vile regarding the news that Wasilla, under Palin, made rape victims pay for their rape kits and would not reimburse them. This creep said, "They can decline the rape kit if they want." And people called him on his bs, and it got worse with each comment he made. He implied that people tax payers shouldn't pay for criminal investigations and that firefighters were once a private enterprise, and blah blah blah. So, one person posted a screencap after they made a donation to the Obama campaign essentially in this douchebag's name. More and more people made contributions. Within two hours, $1,350 had been donated to the Obama campaign. Overnight, over $1,500 had been donated. I love it. | |

No, instead Diebold and Rove and the oil companies will install Palin as president, and she'll spew out more children onto the Oval Office desk while declaring America a theocracy and making Iran look like Denmark. And shooting moose. And lecturing us in that Marge Gunderson accent. All at the same time. Mark my words. She's Reagan in lipstick. The U.S. is doomed. | |

Well, as Gail Collins points out today, anything involving "moose" is funny, and there's no way out of it. And Ike, you're obviously calling Reagan a pig, and that's just depolorable. He was, after all, a horse's, um, wait a minute . . . | |

Another factor regarding Obama losing support (at least my support): Honestly, what would the difference in agendas be between Clinton and Obama? They're still both corporate whores, and neither one of them will end the war. Add drug czar Joe Biden to the ticket and my support evaporates.

Parq I respectfully disagree. I think a black man could beat a white man in an election for president. It depends on the individual candidates, of course, as with an "all white" race. It is a factor, but racism alone will not decide the election. If all the GOP had to do was point out that Obama was an Afro-American, then we wouldn't have to listen all their other hysterical rantings regarding Obama, liberals, 9/11, etc. What happened to "we have nothing to fear, but fear itself", America? | |

At least the Dems are merely disappointing, not actively vicious, and don't start (as many) random horrible wars for no reason. Or try to let more arsenic into our drinking water. As for drugs, blame the ignorant masses for making sane drug policies politically unfeasible. Just eat chocolate instead of doing drugs. | |

Lucky, from your mouth to God's ears, but I doubt it. May I respectfully point out that the GOP doesn't *have* to remind voters that the Dem's candidate is a black guy. They can stay above the fray, chide the Dems every time they bring up on the issue, and sit back and count on what they know human nature to be. | |

The reason the bayou is not regenerating on its own is because we have forced the mississippi to run down one channel and we dredge that channel. If the mississippi were allowed to silt up and then change channels it would over time spray across the delta like sprinkler and would renew (resilt) an area of the bayou then move on - of course there a lot of docks and infrastructure that would soon no longer be on the mississippi. We even know where the next channel would be - as the mississippi has already tried to jump into it despite of all our dredging and levies. | |

A story about two fiery bloods played by Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra, and their fight for power and supremacy.

A bit of a surprise here, this film turned out to be quite entertaining with a great soundtrack and a serious underlying message. Both Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra turn in good performances and show promise- I wouldn't be surprised if we don't start seeing more of these two young actors in the near future. Kapoor comes across in a really negative role before switching totally to the hero after the interval-- you may need to suspend disbelief to swallow the quick transformation but this is Bollywood, I suppose. The film is fairly fast paced for the best part of its running time, keeping you entertained throughout. A highlight of the film is the soundtrack, by Amit Trivedi, though not immediately appealing, it definitely grows on you. Item numbers like ''Jhalla Wallah'' carry the soundtrack but big rock ballads like ''Pareshaan'' and the experimental UK dub-step influenced ''Aafaton Ke Parinde'' really stand out. The film turned out to be a hit in India, if not overseas due to the lack of known stars. As always, the YRF DVD release is very good because it includes deleted scenes, a 'Making of' documentary plus the standalone music videos to some of the film's songs– other lazy Indian DVD companies should take note of these extras because it makes the release a really attractive purchase.
The movie is awesome and so was the delivery of flipkart. Reached my home within stipulated time.
Good acting by both the actors and director really captures the essence of small town India. Special kudos to Parineeti Chopra who is quickly becoming my favorite actress. :)

The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship Informs and connects thought leaders looking to understand policies that help entrepreneurs start companies, create jobs and re-start the economy. Sign up to receive our weekly update!

At the Global Entrepreneurial Summit (GES) in Dubai last week, it was clear to me that there is a new level of engagement in developing more entrepreneurial economies at the highest levels of government in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The summit, a collaboration between the U.A.E. Prime Minister's office and the Obama Administration, was an effort to leverage U.S. strengths in high growth entrepreneurship. Now that the summit is over, we take a look at the challenges before policymakers in the region in making the path easier for even more nascent entrepreneurs to succeed in the future.
Everywhere you look in the media these days you see alleged signs of impending economic doom—from the 'financial cliff' threatening to punish United States policymakers if they can't reach agreement soon to the Eurozone crisis with the Greek economy on the edge of collapse. Certainly all very troubling, but it is only one side of the coin. For the past 10 days, I have seen the other side—a side full of hope and promise thanks to a burgeoning movement to embrace entrepreneurship.
As the White House fine tunes its messaging for the upcoming State of the Union Address, small business owners are starting to feel a bit more confident about the economic outlook, according to the latest survey by the National Federation of Independent Businesses. A commonly used phrase in the NFIB work last year was 'stubbornly cautious'. However, the new numbers show continued growth in optimism--the December figures were positive for the fourth consecutive month.
SBA Administrator Karen Mills has been tapped by President Obama to join his Cabinet as part of a larger plan to consolidate the Small Business Administration and several other federal agencies with overlapping responsibilities. The move for Mills is effective immediately, but the reorganization plan requires the backing of Congress.
The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship brings to light various policies and initiatives to advance innovation and drive economic growth.

Irish men are more in touch with their feminine side than ever before, according to leading fashion experts.
The 'prettifying' of Irish men is a growing business, with males taking much more of an interest in their style and appearance in recent years.
"I think guys are a lot more aware of how they can look better with a little bit of grooming," Irish Tatler editor Alexander Fitzgerald told the Irish Examiner.
"I think the stigma of taking pride, or just looking as well as you can, isn't really there anymore so guys are certainly investing more time and money in their appearance."
Bolstering the fashion expert's theory, spending on men's grooming in Ireland has increased from just under €79m to €108m in 2010.
Fitzgerald says celebrities like David Beckham, George Clooney, Clive Owen, and Matthew McConaughey mean that men are more interested in looking their best.
"I think Beckham has a lot to do with it," Fitzgerald said.
"He was the first guy in recent years who made no bones about the fact that he'd be wearing nail varnish and getting his eyebrows plucked. He'd change his hair from day to day, he had earrings, yet he remained masculine."

"Go back 10 or 15 years," says Fitzgerald. "If you went to a health club or a golf club, men would go into the shower with their shampoo and possibly shower gel and that was it. They would literally just wash and go. Now, even in the morning, they'll have a pre-shave solution and most, or at least a good portion of men, probably use moisturiser."
Demand is up for male cosmetic procedures also, according to The Hospital Group in Dublin.
"We've definitely noticed an increase in men using our services," says spokeswoman Aisling Holly.
"Men tend to opt for procedures that deliver subtle improvements in how they look such as wrinkle-removing injections [Botox], fillers to plump out lines, or laser treatments to correct skin conditions. They're also likely to request procedures that address a perceived problem, such as gynaecomastia or 'moob' removal, tattoo removal, or hair restoration."
According to Holly, a swamped job market means men feel more pressure to look their best.
"The recession has played a part. Men are finding themselves unexpectedly back in the job market, competing with younger men, or back in the singles market, following a marriage or relationship break-up."
Despite many men having more of an interest in their appearance, Darren Kennedy, a television presenter, stylist, and fashion blogger, thinks that Irish men have a long way to go.
"The Irish, as a people, are reluctant to step outside the box to draw attention to ourselves. Particularly with men, I think to be seen to care about what you looked like was and is frowned upon. The mentality is: 'why the hell would you be interested in looking well, surely an aul GAA jersey and a pair of jeans would do you grand'. And that's what's holding a lot of guys back."
Do you think Irish men are becoming more metrosexual?

Sheriff announces meth arrests
11:47 am | November 29, 2012Overnight raids by the Carter County Sheriff's Department netted arrests of some of the 30 people indicted recently by a grand jury on methamphetamine charges and ended in the seizure of three clandestine labs.
According to a release by the CCSD, 18 of those 30 are now behind bars after the raids as part of a surge in activity the department is calling "Operation Street Sweeper."
Sheriff Chris Mathes announced the arrests at a press conference Thursday afternoon and decried the negative affects of the drugs on their users and the communities in which they live.
The sheriff said the latest round of raids focused on the Hampton and Roan Mountain communities and thanked the residents in those areas who aided police investigations.

The Village of Roxana has undergone many changes since it's founding in May of 1921. Roxana became a leading industrial site because of the expansion of pipeline and the construction of the original Roxana Petroleum Company. Thriving on self-sufficiency and community involvement, Roxana was and still is proud to stand on its own.
Quality education with Midwestern value is sure to be found in Roxana's School District. Roxana Community Unit School District #1 is proud to boast a supreme junior and senior high school, as well as two elementary schools.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Your Trip
Should I take any gifts for local Moroccan children?
You may take out some gifts if you like, but do not give money - ideally take crayons, pens, writing paper etc which they can use in school.
Ian Langford - Sales
Yes! When not staying in a hotel, you will always have a foam sleeping mat or full mattress if staying in a gite.
Danuta Janik - Customer Operations
Can I hire a sleeping bag locally in Morocco?
Unfortunately our local supplier does not have a reliable source through which he can secure sleeping bags so you will need to have this in advance of travelling. If you don't want to buy one, bags can be hired through TrekHireUK (www.trekhireuk.com).
Danuta Janik - Customer Operations
What kind of footwear is suitable?
You will need comfortable walking boots with ankle support, and something lighter for the evenings.
David Richardson - Sales
What are the temperatures likely to be trekking in the Atlas mountains?
Expect it to be hot during the day with strong sun, mid to high 20s is the norm. However, there can be a cool breeze and you will need extra layers when you stop. As ever in the mountains be prepared for quick, unpredictable changes in the weather and have appropriate clothing for this. At night temperatures can drop to zero.
David Richardson - Sales
Are water purification tablets necessary?
The EU recently banned the use of iodine tablets, therefore these will no longer be provided on trek. We advise you buy your own purification tablets in the UK (Biox Aqua drops are good) and take them with you. Bottled water can be purchased throughout most parts of the trip, yet please note recycling is not fully established in a lot of areas.
Danuta Janik - Morocco Operations
Moroccan cuisine is very diverse, with many influeneces due to the interaction of Morocco with the outside world for centuries. The cuisine of Morocco is a mix of Berber, Moorish, Mediterranean and Arab influences. The main Moroccan dish most people are familiar with is couscous, usually eaten with beef or lamb. Chicken is also very common and the importance of seafood is increasing, especially on the coast. Vegetarians won't have any problems either, although choice can be more limited in remote locations.
The common and tasty tajine is everywhere, a mouth watering stew with meat and vegetables. Green tea with mint is the drink of choice, and you can pick up bocadillos (sandwiches) from street stalls everywhere - you won't go hungry!
Olly Leicester - Sales
Do I need to take walking poles?
If you are used to walking with poles then you can take them with you. They are not essential though and the walk is manageable without them. It is personal preference but do remember to pack them as part of your main luggage to be stowed in the hold.
Sharmil Goswami - Sales
Morocco Specific Questions
What kind of clothing is best in a Muslim country?
You are visiting a predominantly Muslim country, therefore you should dress modestly at all times when visiting cultural sites, and there may also be times when you are asked to 'cover up'. During your trip the tour leader will always advise you on appropriate dress for each day's activities.
If you are asked to 'cover up', you'll need to cover your shoulders, arms and legs. We recommend packing lightweight trousers or a long skirt, and a long sleeved shirt. Women may also be required to cover their hair with a scarf if entering a mosque or religious quarters.
Jim Eite - Product Manager
What is the best way to take money to Morocco?
The Moroccan currency is the Dirham and cannot be imported or exported, as it is a 'closed' currency. We suggest you take your personal spending money in good condition notes, either in £, Euros or US$. Local costs - it depends! - £2-4 per day to cover postcards, small souvenirs, soft drinks etc; £15 a day for food is fine (if it's not included).
Danuta Janik - Morocco Operations
Morocco country guide (including plugs!)
Please visit the Exodus Travel Guide to Morocco where you can find out what plugs they use, as well as more detailed Country information in the menu on the left of the page.
Ramadan is a time when followers of Islam do not eat or drink between sunrise and sunset. This can sometimes affect the opening hours of certain tourist sites. However we will ensure that that the itinerary is affected as little as possible if you travel during this period. Food and drink is available to tourists during the day.

A sex offender community called Hand Up Ministries says Oklahoma City is forcing nearly 40 of its registered offenders out of its program and onto the streets. However, the city says there is much more to the story.
The Hand Up Ministries trailer park is located just east of Valley Brook. It is home to more than 15 percent of the Oklahoma City's registered sex offender population. In early July, a new law changed things at the ministry causing tents to pop up. Now, the tents must go.
For more than two weeks, 38 of the 170 men living at the ministry have been sweating it out in the tents. None of those men were willing to go on camera to tell News 9 what it has been like.
On July 1, a law took effect that prohibited more than one sex offender from living within the same dwelling as another sex offender.
"I really don't believe the legislators knew what would happen and what this really meant when they passed it," ministry manager Chris Hollrah said.

Lawmakers and the city both say the idea behind all of this is to keep people who are likely to reoffend away from others who are likely to reoffend.
Before the new law, two or three sex offenders lived in most, if not all, of the ministry's trailers. So, in order to comply with the law, tents were put up. But, it turns out the tents are also against the law.
"[The ministry] is violating its zoning because, as a mobile home park, it cannot have tents on the property," Deputy Chief Johnny Kuhlman with Oklahoma City police said.
The ministry says forcing the tents down will turn the men homeless and put them and the city at risk for additional crime.
"They're more likely to reoffend with a crime to put a roof over their head or to put food in their mouths," Hollrah said. "A lot of them don't find anything…they end up back in prison because they can't register."
Police say most of the 1,100 sex offenders in Oklahoma City do not live in organizations like Hand Up Ministries. The city says it's confident the men will find other locations to live legally. Code enforcement officers have given the organization 30 days to pack up the tents.
Ministry leaders attempted to get the new law thrown out in federal court but were unsuccessful.

We know the eyes of the world will be upon us. We know critics will be watching and waiting, hoping for another opportunity to continue their legal assault against our State. But I have faith in our law enforcement. Our brave men and women in uniform have been trained so that they are able to enforce this law efficiently, effectively and in harmony with the Constitution.
In upholding section 2(B), the Supreme Court found that the section can be construed as a constitutional exercise of state authority, and that "it would be inappropriate to assume 2(B) will be construed in a way that creates a conflict with federal law." The court noted, however, that this decision does not bar other actions against 2(B) and other parts of the law based on different constitutional issues. The court heard final oral arguments [JURIST report] for the case in late April. The key issue was whether certain provisions of the Arizona law intruded in areas reserved by the Constitution for federal regulation. The Supreme Court agreed to hear the case in December after Arizona asked the high court to weigh in [JURIST reports] on the issue. The US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld an injunction last April before the law ever took effect, and the US Department of Justice [official website] urged the Supreme Court not to hear the appeal [JURIST report].
