Selenium: Too Much of a Good Thing?
By Matthew Solan
Selenium supplements have been touted as possible cancer fighters, but taken over a long period they might also increase your risk of type-2 diabetes by up to 50 percent, says a recent study in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Scientists wanted to examine whether selenium might prevent diabetes, since previous animal studies suggested it improves glucose metabolism. In an ironic twist, they found that not only does the supplement not prevent diabetes, it may actually cause the disease.
Researchers at England's Warwick Medical School analyzed a double-blind trial in which about 600 people received 200 mcg of selenium daily for 41/2 years. During that time, the participants had significantly fewer incidences of lung, colorectal, and prostate cancer. The same group, which continued to take the selenium, was then followed for an average of 7.7 years. In that span, type-2 diabetes developed in just under 10 percent of selenium users compared with 6.5 percent of the placebo group.
The lead researcher noted that further studies are needed, but added that most people already get adequate amounts of selenium in their food (Brazil nuts, fish, and cooked barley are particularly rich sources) so extra doses may not be worth the risk.

Sixteen bicyclists raised funds for the proposed Twin Pike Family YMCA at the Ride for the Pool fundraiser on Saturday, June 22.
In first place was Jim Butler of Milton, Ill. Second place went to Adam Treadway of Louisiana and third place went to the Rev. Paul Catterton, the new minister at Centenary United Methodist Church in Louisiana.
The riders braved rain and a 40-mile course full of gnats that went from the YMCA, out Hwy. 54 to Fairgrounds Road over Hwy. UU to Hwy. VV and then back to the Y.
Sponsors pledged $1 per mile and the funds accumulated are still being collected from them, according to YMCA Program Director Melissa Corbin.
For the full story, see the 6-26 print edition of the Louisiana Press-Journal.

The acai (ah-sigh-EE) berry is a grape-like fruit harvested from acai palm trees, which are native to the rainforests of South America. Acai berries are widely touted as a so-called superfood, with proponents claiming that they are helpful for a variety of health concerns, including arthritis, cancer, weight loss, high cholesterol, erectile dysfunction, detoxification and improving general health.
Acai berries may be a good source of antioxidants, fiber and heart-healthy fats. But research on acai berries is limited, and claims about the health benefits of acai haven't been proved.
Many fruits besides acai berries provide antioxidants and other nutrients that are important to your health. But if you'd like to try acai, check your local health food or gourmet stores — acai can be consumed raw, in tablet form, in beverages such as juice, smoothies or energy drinks, or in other food products such as jelly or ice cream.

A friend of mine had a 86 F-250 with a 460 and even with CA emissions it came W/O a catcon. It even ran on regular gas when it was sold here and didn't have a placard either on the instrument cluster or on the fuel filler doors that said "Unleaded Fuel Only". If your truck is missing the "UFO" messages then it probably came without a catcon. Maybe they were looking in the book for an F150 which would have come with a cat. Also, if your GVWR is over 8500 I can almost guarantee that it didn't come with a cat since I believe Ford trucks with this engine and weight rating didn't start using catcons until the engine recieved EFI in 1988. Maybe you need to find a more lax testing facility. I've been to more than one that all they did was clip onto the #1 plug wire and stick a probe in the tailpipe. No ckecking for catcons, or EGR, or PCV etc... If it passes the sniffer it passes... Good luck with the smog nazis!

'Consecutive Days Count' during server maintenance
How often do they happen? I've been visiting and browsing 8 different sites daily for just under a month (on some, others were only a couple weeks) trying really hard to make it to the fanatic badge and yesterday all my counts got reset because it didn't record my activity during maintenance (although strangely enough, one of the sites - A51 Meta - DID apparently record it...) Is there a posted schedule for it so I can avoid losing my credit in the future? |

Coming clean with
The decorated cap also reflects a growing trend of "contract decorating" as an outsourcing service. Aside from producing the central package some contract packagers are adding custom visual enhancements to specific packaging components.
Multi-Color began discussing cap-decorating options with P&G in late 2004. Multi-Color offers multiple decorating technologies so it suggested adorning the caps with PETG shrink-sleeve labels to provide the sharp graphics and gloss that P&G wanted.
However attaching a shrink sleeve to a cap requires capabilities that product manufacturers—even global giants such as P&G—don't always have. First the sleeve must be vertically aligned on the cap. Second the sleeve must be attached in order to keep the label snugly in place on the cap during additional package-production steps downstream. Third with the sleeve in place the cap has to be applied to the bottle. Finally the sleeve has to stay firmly in place and look good each time the package is handled.
P&G fills most of its detergent bottles at plants in Ohio and uses contract packagers to fill overflow capacity. But Michael Fox at P&G says the company lacked the equipment to produce the custom shrink sleeve for the new Tide product.
"Most product manufacturers don't want to tackle this type of project in-house in one to three years and invest in the technology" says Francene Lord director of sales at Quick Pak. "Nor would you want to invest in the equipment until you know the product will succeed in the market."
2. They were innovative.
While a decorated cap appeared to be the right marketing strategy to maximize the new detergent's shelf impact producing the shrink sleeves posed several challenges. Foremost Multi-Color and Quick Pak working with P&G determined that a plan needed to be developed to decorate the caps before they were placed on the bottles. In addition the predecorated caps would need to be robust enough to withstand travel through both the cap-conveying system and the torque that's required in applying the caps to the bottles.
In the pre-concept stage of package development Multi-Color turned to its Product Leadership group to conduct production-line trials and determine whether shrink sleeves would hold up well on the caps. The group concluded that predecorated caps could work using a specially designed PET shrink-sleeve label.
"We were working on several aspects of the project simultaneously" observes Philip Albenice Multi-Color technical representative. "While our primary focus was developing a product that would work for this application it also had to be a product that was a good fit for our production capabilities. Our goal was to produce an innovative shrink-sleeve label that we could produce efficiently."
3. They provided a turnkey solution.
The project also posed the challenge of meeting P&G's accelerated timeline. P&G wanted to launch Tide with Febreze Freshness in August 2005. Its schedule required that materials be available to start producing completed packages in June 2005.
John Voelker Multi-Color vice president of sales says that Multi-Color presented its plan for meeting P&G's packaging and timetable requirements when it met with P&G's packaging and product teams in late January 2005. "We offered to handle everything in-house—product development prepress production and the actual decorating. Being able to handle the entire project made a big difference."
The package-development team produced a "game plan" that showed P&G the project could be successful. The plan called for Multi-Color's Product Leadership group to oversee product development and provide technical support. Laser Graphic Systems Multi-Color's prepress facility would produce the color separations and printing cylinders. Shrink sleeves would be printed and finished at Multi-Color's Scottsburg IN facility and applied to the caps at Quick Pak. The decorated caps would then travel to P&G filling plants in Lima OH and Alexandria LA to seal the filled detergent bottles.
P&G assessed the operations of several contract packagers and chose Quick Pak in part because of its resourcefulness in adapting operations to get the project launched. Francene Lord explains that many of Quick Pak's fulfillment projects require some manual assembly and this capability enabled it to begin producing decorated caps even before it received the automated equipment it had ordered for the project.
4. They demonstrated the capability to deliver on key promises better than their competitors.
Mass-producing packaging components is one thing. Delivering on promises in producing a consistently high-quality custom component applying it the same way on each package and assuring that the quality look is maintained in filling and capping is another. These demands require a co-packer to go the "extra mile."
Before P&G selected Multi-Color and Quick Pak it required that they demonstrate they could deliver a finished product that emphasized shelf impact without gumming up operations. Multi-Color and Quick Pak put predecorated cap samples through their paces in a line trial in March 2005.
"The objective of the trial was to confirm the robustness of the shrink-sleeve-labeled cap" Lord says. "The results confirmed that we had a product that would meet Procter & Gamble's expectations."
The shrink sleeves were tested with full graphics applied under actual production conditions. The results confirmed that the decorated caps would maintain quality in the rigorous cap-conveying and capping processes Lord says.
This qualification period also provided Quick Pak with the opportunity to conduct two key tests that confirmed the decorated caps could maintain product integrity. In one test Quick Pak confirmed that the shrink sleeves could withstand the torque application during capping. In what Lord describes as the "stock boy test" Quick Pak showed that the decorated labels would maintain their structural quality and visual sharpness after handling by store associates.
All these tests proved critical in P&G's co-packer qualifying process. "P&G likes redundancy in processes" Lord says. "In a new-product launch they want to get a comfort level so that if something goes wrong there is a contingency plan."
P&G awarded Multi-Color and Quick Pak the business in March 2005.

It's the first time I experienced Sears not standing behind its equipment. The blower simply stopped working after 3 months. Sent it to be repaired. Told it was not under warranty. Would cost over $170 to fix. Only paid $130 for it. I have owned many many Craftsman items in my life. Always found Sears to be fair. Not with this one. This blower is not worth buying.

Great blower for the price. Starts up every time, with lots of power. Gets the job done. I recommend using the craftsmen pre mixed gas. It works great and you don't have to buy a separate gas container for your 2 stroke engines. Just pour in and go!

Depth of network insight from new Threat & Event Console provides visual insight into possible cyberthreats from around the globe
SAN DIEGO, Dec. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- iboss today announced its new Threat and Event console, a core component of the company's Secure Web Gateway platform. A provider of network security solutions, iboss is releasing new functionality that gives enterprises unparalleled access to possible cybersecurity threats, malware breaches on mobile devices and attacks entering the network from social media sites. This system increases insight, shortens mitigation response and reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) by up to 30 percent.
The iboss platform provides visibility of everything going in and out of a network, across every single network port, identifying the known and the unknown. As an example, there are 65,535 ports on a network and legacy Web security vendors, if port focused, typically monitor only ports 80 and 443. Advanced threats, applications and even SaaS services are increasingly utilizing non-standard ports outside of port 80 and 443. iboss provides the visibility to identify what is traversing your network regardless of the port utilized, providing administrators more content visibility and allowing them to establish more actionable policy.
Unlike legacy network security vendors that focus on log-based threat detection and reporting, iboss approaches the network in a completely different manner by addressing who, and from where, a person connects. iboss' cloud-based platform drills deep into a network, identifying odd behaviors and surfacing "shadow IT." This allows companies to create actionable policies that address the high-risk user behavior.
The new Threat and Event console utilizes exclusive features, such as threat GeoMapping and heat map technology, to provide an instant visual pinpoint of threats across a global map. A few examples of the advanced levels of visibility include:
"Cybersecurity and privacy concerns are now front and center, thanks to the NSA revelations and advanced ways hackers can get into networks. These threats include mobile devices too, as malware is focusing on Android and iOS devices. These devices can be compromised when they are outside the network, infecting upon return," said Peter Martini, COO and co-founder of iboss. "Today's network security vendors and most enterprise environments are just not prepared to track, analyze and understand that type of traffic. Since we started shipping our iboss platform a year ago, we've replaced many legacy vendor installs at enterprises who need to have more insight and visibility into their networks. Many IT administrators just don't realize what can actually be seen on the network, as outdated technology doesn't provide that option."
The Threat and Event console benefits include:

Thou Shall Have More Kids
Displaying 110 of 26 comments

scott roney, there's not much to worry about, really -- almost NO one advocates for large families these days. People who do have large families are not the norm, far from it. I suspect NPR's appeal may have been tongue-in-cheek, since their parent company is pro-abortion. (One would think they'd be asking African-Americans who have fled Chicago in droves in recent decades for the South, especially Atlanta, to return and thus re-build the population that way.) Advocates for abortion are MUCH more numerous than those for large families, also much more vocal, and their destructive agenda which has claimed almost 60 MILLION lives already (and counting, daily) is also a huge impediment to the spiritual health of this nation. Christ Jesus affirmed the value of children and prophesied destruction to those who would harm them. The fruit of the Spirit is love, and God's love does not reject children.
scott roney
I will admit right off I didn't bother to read this article (I have read numerous others by the author). There is NO justification in a world with a population surpassing 7 billion for advocating for larger families. Any supposed justification for larger families is misguided and completely ignores the realities of the earth's current and future challenges regarding sustainability. To advocate for larger families given a population of 7 billion is the height of narcissism, blindness, arrogance, insensitivity, shallowness, and the opposite of the fruit of the spirit as listed by Paul in the epistle to the Galatians. Really Jen you have no shame and you should be ashamed of your behavior in this matter.

"One more thing: I think it's amusing how, if a kid has to make her own lunch because Mom has 5 other kids, that's a great character-building asset for the kid. But if the a kid has to make her own lunch because Mom has a prestigious job, suddenly it's a terribly tragedy for the poor neglected child. " It is a character building exercise either bat but one child is doing so because of a need to be helpful to mom who is busy helping other members of the family. The other situation is a kid having to do so because mom wants a prestigious (self-serving egotism) title for herself. One mom is taking care of her family while the other is taking care of herself (the prestigious job is the key. If you said "..because mom left for work to provide for her family...) there might have been a redeeming quality to that mom's actions. But, you specifically focused on mom doing something for herself and so she can have her ego puffed up by prestige. And yes, this would apply to dads....

Kathi, I've never heard even ONE person say it is shocking or sinful for a husband and wife to grow their family through adoption. MANY families (both Christian and non-) have done this. Stephen Curtis Chapman and his wife have adopted children, and actively promote adoption through his ministry. Unfortunately, I have heard people (even Christians) say it is sinful for the Duggars to have a large family, though there is zero Scripture support for that opinion. Kathleen Mch, did you notice that it's NPR that's calling families to have more children? AFAIK, they haven't mentioned Jesus in that appeal. The real tragedy is that so many American children have been killed by abortion; the death toll is nearing 60 MILLION now. We rightly mourn the deaths of 20 children in CT, but ignore the deaths of other children, even younger and more innocent, with studied and terrible indifference. About making lunches: I do think it's sad when a child is not reared by his or her own parent(s).

This is a shallow and, in my opinion, blinkered article that offers little more than "Have more babies. Because Jesus." The fact is, family health, safety, happiness, education, well-being and other things do NOT automatically increase with higher numbers of children. In fact, often the opposite is true. I prefer the sanity, order, financial security and peace of mind that comes with one child. Had I 3 or 4 children, my world might very well be the chaotic, financially worrisome, scrimping life of so many people who have more children than they can comfortably afford.

If it is your personal choice to have a lot of children, that's fine, but I do not like Christians pressuring other Christians that it's their supposed duty to have a lot of kids. Some Christian women never marry and never have kids- not by choice they could never meet a decent partner. Jesus Christ did not teach that His kingdom would be spread by Christians making babies, but by preaching the Gospel to the lost. Christ also did not teach that flesh and blood family was to take precedence over spiritual family (he taught the opposite, see Matthew 10:37), yet many Christians in America continue to place an un-biblical, insane amount of importance on marrying and having children. This makes any one who is not married with children feel excluded from churches. Approximately 50% of Americans today are single. Christians need to start facing society as it is, (many unmarried people) not how they wish it to be, because it's causing people to drop out of churches.
Jim Ricker
IF you want your kids to be kind, generous, self-starters, respectful and to tie their own shoes - be a parent instead of a helicopter friend that happens to be older than the kid. Having more kids is not the answer, it is raising your kids properly. The only difference between the kids of a large family of helicopter friend/parents and a small family of helicopter friend/parents is that the kids in the larger family will run wilder.
Kathi Vande Guchte
Janet W: you're making a lot of assumptions about me, that I assume adoption is easy - it isn't, especially if a couple is caucasian and wants to adopt a caucasian children under the age of two with the biological parents completely giving up all rights to the child. I'm not saying don't have any biological children, but am advocating for growing families through biology AND adoption. It doesn't have to be a "curtain 1 vs curtain 2" decision. Also, I am someone who was adopted - as were my two older siblings - in the 50's/60's. I also have had a relationship with my birth family - my birth parents married and went on to have two more children together - since age 19 - I am now 47. My birth mother's experience of being young, unmarried, and single was painful to hear - the system was really broken, and it still is broken today, except things have swung the other way. My point is, if Christians want to have large families, why not expand using both options?
Rachel Stephan Simko
When we decided to have our first child, we weren't in the best place economically. But God has provided in miraculous ways. And again with this second child (whom we're waiting on - any day now!). If we had/have the means, I would love to have a lot of children, but there is a reality to deal with. We'll have to see how life plays out. :) It's very tempting to fall into over-mothering (as I see a lot of my peers doing), but I try to remind myself that it's important for my daughter to learn responsibility and learn how to do things on her own. evenonesparrow.blogspot.com
