Muscle back
- A muscle back is the more traditional design and consists of a solid head with little or none of the weight being distributed around the perimeter of the head. As such they require a great deal of skill in order to hit the ball consistenCavity backtly because the "sweetspot" is fairly small. In addition, any shot that is struck "off-center" may be severely compromised in terms of distance and direction.
- Perceived advantages of muscle backs are that, when hit correctly, they provide greater distance than cavity backs, and much improved feel, although this is most likely due to the forging process by which they are usually made.
Cavity back
- Cavity back, or perimeter weighted, irons are usually made by investment casting. They are so called because of the cavity created by the redistribution of the weight from the middle to the perimeter of the clubhead when compared with a traditional muscle back.
- The perimeter weighting increases the size of the sweetspot and the moment of inertia of the clubhead, which reduces twisting when the ball is struck off-center, allowing such shots to lose less distance and accuracy when compared with a muscle back iron. More weight is often put into the sole of the clubhead, which lowers the center of gravity and increases the launch angle of the ball.
- The forgiving nature of cavity backs combined with the ease with which they enable the average golfer to get the ball airborne, make them the most popular design of iron with amateurs.
Introduction of Golf Clubs:
- A golf club is used in the sport of golf to hit a golf ball. Each club is composed of a shaft with a lance (grip) and a clubhead. Woods are mainly used for long-distance fairway or tee shots; irons, the most versatile class, are used for a variety of shots; putters are used mainly on the green to roll the ball into the cup
- A set used to play a round of golf, under the rules of golf, must have no more than 14 clubs. While the variation of clubs differs between golfers, a full set typically consists of a driver, two fairway woods (generally 3- and 5-woods), a set of irons from 3 to 9, a pitching wedge, a sand wedge, a putter, and one more club of the player's choice. Many players opt to avoid the long irons (that many find difficult to hit) and replace them with more forgiving clubs, like hybrids, although a small number of players choose to carry a 2-iron rather than a third wood
Club Types:
- Woods are long-distance clubs, meant to drive the ball a great distance down the fairway towards the hole. They generally have a large head and a long shaft for maximum club speed. Recently manufacturers have started using materials such as carbon fiber, titanium, or scandium. Even though most "woods" are made from different metals, they are still called "woods" to denote the general shape and their intended use on the golf course. Most woods made today have a graphite shaft and titanium, composite, or steel head
- Irons are golf clubs with a flat angled face and a shorter shaft than a wood, designed for shots approaching the green or from more difficult lies such as the rough, through or over trees, or the base of hills. As with woods, "irons" get their name because they were originally made from forged iron. High-loft irons are called wedges. The higher the number gets on the scale, the lower amount of angle difference from 90 degrees
- Hybrids are a cross between a wood and an iron, giving these clubs the wood's long distance with the iron's familiar swing. These clubs generally are used instead of high-numbered woods and/or low-numbered irons, though some manufacturers produce entire sets of hybrids or "iron replacements" that incorporate hybrid design to add distance and forgiveness to a player's entire set of irons from 1 to pitching wedge. Most hybrids take the place of an iron, but the hybrid is easier to hit than its respective iron
- Putters are a special class of clubs with a loft not exceeding ten degrees (except chippers), designed primarily to roll the ball along the grass, generally from a point on the putting green towards the cup. Contrary to popular belief, putters do have a loft (often 5 degrees from truly perpendicular at impact) that helps to lift the ball from any indentation it has made. Newer putters also include grooves on the face to promote roll rather than a skid off the impact. This increases rolling distance and reduces bouncing over the turf
- Another variation of the putter, called the chipper, has a similar look, feel and general construction as a "normal" putter, but with a much higher loft, often 30-45 degrees. It is used to lift the ball over or out of the rough or fringe and onto the green with a motion similar to a putt. It can also be used for "lagging" (a putt made on the green from long distance for the sole purpose of setting up the ball for an easier second putt)

Women's Therapy Center is a women's nonprofit in Philadelphia that decided to address this issue head-on. WTC has provided quality, affordable psychotherapy to low-income women since 1972. We serve a group of women who are working but often do not qualify for subsidized benefits and are often only a paycheck away from poverty. They are housekeepers, hair dressers, nannies, baristas, waiters, sex workers, artists and students. They want support but many barriers prevent them from accessing help — long waiting lists, insurance requirements, lack of finances or transportation and fear of stigma, sexism and judgment. WTC was formed to remove these barriers and offer quality, affordable mental-health services that promote healing and growth over pathology and profit. The agency provides psychotherapeutic services in a feminist environment created by collaboration, client empowerment, affordability, a de-emphasis on diagnosis, racial equity and recognizing the ways in which our experiences with oppression are shaped by our concurrent identities. WTC offers individual, couples and group psychotherapy to 350 clients a year on a sliding-fee scale.
As an organization, WTC made the commitment to becoming fully trans-inclusive and affirming in all of its services because this fit with our feminist mission. Several years prior, transgender communities began giving WTC feedback and advocating for more competent and inclusive mental-health services. These communities expressed the need for non-pathologizing therapeutic spaces where transgender people could be their authentic selves. Community members stated that they wanted a space that was feminist and worked from a gendered place, not just a "gay" space or a mental-health space. They requested psychotherapy that would understand and address the consequences of transphobia and discrimination such as loss of job, family, children and social supports.
Philosophically, WTC was well-positioned to offer a safe and affirming space to provide therapy for trans communities. As feminist psychotherapists already working from a gendered place, WTC understood how certain gendered experiences call for particular needs around attunement and clinical intervention. Thus in 2012, WTC decided to address this issue with an intentional process. WTC embarked on a journey that has included educational trainings, hard discussions, more training and more discussions. In June 2013, the same week that DOMA was overturned, WTC staff and board unanimously voted to provide fully trans-inclusive and affirming services. WTC committed to being accountable to build trust within trans communities, particularly due to a divisive history with feminist spaces and mental-health providers.
This process of exploration, education, dialogue and community-building led to a historical moment for a feminist organization. WTC, however, still has many steps to take to become truly trans-affirming. We have committed agency time and resources and are partnering with over 25 key transgender stakeholders who have helped guide this effort. After several meetings, the community came up with the following recommendations: provide training and supervision; alter the physical space, forms and online presence; increase trans representation on staff and board; and work with trans communities to build accountability and create programming.
A strategy they proposed was to host a community forum to present WTC's services and process around becoming trans-affirming; engage in a dialogue around specific mental-health needs for transgender communities; and listen to community feedback and answer questions. This forum is a priority because, in order for WTC to be successful, it needs to offer a space where community members can partner with WTC. It won't matter if we offer psychotherapy that is affirming if the community doesn't feel like it has impacted the process or defined how its needs could be met.
The forum, funded by Delaware Valley Legacy Fund and Bread & Roses Community Fund, is 6-8 p.m. May 1 at William Way LGBT Community Center, 1315 Spruce St. Refreshments will be served. We invite anyone who is invested in helping WTC achieve this goal. If you are interested, RSVP at 215-567-1111, ext *811 or by email at email@example.com.
WTC is enthusiastic about this next phase of growth for the organization. The community forum will be a significant step in this journey and WTC hopes you will join us for this auspicious occasion.
Alison Gerig, LCSW, is executive director of Women's Therapy Center.

[[Performer~P8836~Pierce Brosnan~piercebrosnan]] made his first appearance as James Bond in this action thriller, the 17th in the series (excluding the 1967 Casino Royale and the 1983 Never Say Never Again) featuring the suave British super-agent. As the story begins, Agent 007 and his partner, Agent 006 ([[Performer~P4761~Sean Bean~seanbean]]), pull a daring raid on a chemical weapons plant in the Soviet Union; however, they are captured by Russian troops, and while Bond is able to escape, 006 is not so lucky. Several years later, the Soviet Union and the Cold War are a thing of the past, but Bond is still at work ferreting out evildoers everywhere. Xenia Onatopp ([[Performer~P35232~Famke Janssen~famkejanssen]]), a beautiful but vicious villain working with the Russian Mafia, spearheads the theft of the controls to GoldenEye, a high-tech satellite weapons system, and with her gunmen, she kills most of the soldiers and guards at a top-secret military facility in the process. Bond joins forces with Natalya Simonova ([[Performer~P152195~Izabella Scorupco~izabellascorupco]]), one of the base's few survivors, to help track down Onatopp's minions and the controls to GoldenEye, which can destroy all electronic circuits in a given area in a matter of seconds; however, in time, Bond discovers the true identity of the criminal mastermind who is behind this bid for unholy power and world domination -- none other than Alec Trevelyan, the man Bond once knew as 006. In addition to Brosnan, GoldenEye also marked another significant cast change for the Bond series -- [[Performer~P18570~Judi Dench~judidench]] made her debut as M, Bond's superior. [[Performer~P199950~Minnie Driver~minniedriver]] also has a cameo as a nightclub singer. Sadly, this was the last film in the Bond series for special-effects supervisor [[Performer~P102330~Derek Meddings~derekmeddings]], who died in the midst of production; the film was dedicated to him. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Sunburns and Skin Cancer
So far this Sunlight Series has discussed exactly what sunlight is, how it is produced, how it interacts with Earth's atmosphere, what reaches the surface, and an initial look at what happens when it hits your skin. The last post focused on how UV-B radiation creates vitamin D in your skin, and how ample vitamin D levels are extremely important for optimal human health. Sunlight has other benefits too, such as nitric oxide production and the control of circadian rhythms. Clearly, for optimal health, human beings require sunlight, yet most health advice cautions against intense sunlight.
Almost everybody who is fair-skinned (or even darker skinned) has likely at some point in his or her life received a painful sunburn. It is understandable that many people believe sunlight is dangerous as extreme sunburns are indeed painful and can lead to skin cancers. Sunlight exposure can be a factor in the development of a skin cancer, but the process is misunderstood. There are three main types of skin cancer, with only one, melanoma, being a real threat to survival. Generally speaking, one can increase one's resistance to being sunburned, and significantly lower any chance of developing a skin cancer, particularly melanoma, all the while reaping ample vitamin D levels and helping to prevent the development of all cancers. This will be discussed in a later post.
For this post, let's take a look first at what a sunburn is, followed by the different types of skin cancer.
What is a Sunburn?
In a similar way that UV-B radiation is able to turn 7-dehydrocholesterol into vitamin D3 (as explained in the previous post), UV-B radiation is intense enough to cause changes in other molecules as well. UV-B radiation is able to break molecules apart in your skin cells, including DNA, which causes a cascade of reactions.
If enough skin cells are damaged, the body's immune system will react with inflammation in the form of increased blood flow causing redness and swelling. Pain receptors at the site of damage will also be activated. The skin then needs to be repaired, and one way of doing that is replacing the skin, which the sunburned-individual will experience as peeling. Skin damage also leads to the formation of melanin, which causes the oft-desired tan colour. Individuals with naturally darker skin have naturally higher concentrations of melanin even without UV-B induced production. Melanin also acts as a photoprotectant (protects against sunlight), and when sufficiently concentrated, can disperse up to 99.9% of UV-B radiation. Once enough melanin is produced (either through genetics or UV-B exposure), sunburns, including damage to DNA, become very unlikely.
Conventional medicine believes that unrecognized errors in the DNA repair process are the cause of all cancers in general, and the errors resulting from UV radiation exposure are the cause of skin cancers. It is hypothesized that if DNA is not repaired properly, then mutant DNA can proliferate, which if left unchecked can result in tumours. The work of Dr. Seyfried makes an opposing case that it is damage to mitochondria, and not DNA that causes cancer. Either way, with regard to skin cancer, UV-radiation is almost always implicated as the cause. The below case argues that this is illogical.
Skin Cancer:
There are three main types of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. The entire category of skin cancers comprises the most common type of cancer in the US, with more than 3.5 million cases in over 2.0 million people being diagnosed annually. 80% of these 3.5 million cases are of the basal cell carcinoma variety, close to 20% are of the squamous cell carcinoma variety, and less than 1% of all skin cancer cases are life-threatening melanoma. It is estimated that all cancers (not just skin) will be responsible for 580,350 deaths in the US in 2013, of which 12,650 (2%) are the result of melanoma.
The post on ozone depletion vs. global dimming explained that despite anthropogenic emissions decreasing the concentration of UV-blocking ozone in the stratosphere, the overall amount of sunlight (and accompanying UV radiation) hitting Earth's surface at has decreased due to global dimming. In addition, it is estimated by the EPA that Americans (and presumably citizens of other developed countries) spend a whopping 90% of their time indoors. From these combined effects, although there has been an overall decrease in average sun and UV exposure, melanoma rates in the UK more than quadrupled from 1975-2010, with similar dramatic increases in the US as well.
How can UV radiation be the cause of melanoma if UV exposure is decreasing while melanoma rates are skyrocketing? It is the aim of this author to prove that sunlight and UV radiation is not the sole cause of skin cancer and that it has a myriad of health benefits, and that exposure should be encouraged.
First, let's take a look at the three types of skin cancer.
Basal Cell Carcinoma:
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC), by far the most common type of skin cancer, is rarely fatal (fatal in less than 0.1% of diagnosed cases) although it can be disfiguring if its growth is left unchecked. Basal cells are the inner layer of the epidermis. Current thought has BCC generally associated with chronic ultraviolet exposure with a list of other contributing factors such as inflammatory skin conditions and complications resulting from burns, scars, and infections. Fair-skinned caucasians are the most likely to develop BCC. It is more prevalent amongst older people with a history of intense sun exposure. Although most tumors grow on sun-exposed areas of the body, BCC tumors arise on non-exposed parts of the body (the nether regions…), indicating that UV exposure is not always a factor. A photo of a BCC tumour is shown below.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma:
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the second most common type of skin cancer, is also rarely fatal (fatal in less than 0.5% of diagnosed cases), but can also be disfiguring in serious cases. Squamous cells are the outer layer of the epidermis. As with BCC, UV exposure gets most of the blame for causing SCC, and fair skinned individuals are most at risk. Most of these tumours are on sun-exposed parts of the body, but again, these do pop up in non-exposed areas as well, implying that UV exposure is not the only factor in tumour development. An image of a SCC tumour is below:
Melanoma is by far the least common skin cancer, but also by far the most deadly (death in 12.4% of cases). Melanoma is a cancer of the melanocytes, which are responsible for producing melanin (tan pigment). Once again, Caucasians are the most at risk. Treatment is usually surgical removal, and if the tumour returns, then chemo- and radiation-therapy is pursued. Although UV-radiation is generally implicated as the causative factor, one study found that up to 75% of melanoma tumours occur on relatively unexposed body sites. This observation has lead many researchers to hypothesize that when a certain area of the body is usually unexposed and is infrequently exposed to high doses of UV-radiation, that the skin is not "prepared" (ie: tanned) for the radiation assault and thus is more damaged which leads to skin cancer. However, there are exceptional cases where melanoma develops on areas that are almost never exposed to sunlight, including the male scrotum and urethra. The urethra is definitely one area where the sun don't ever shine. A photo of a melanoma tumour is below.
Based on the information presented above, the following conclusions can be made:
- UV exposure can be a factor in the development of skin cancer, especially amongst caucasians, but skin cancer also develops in areas of the body that are not exposed to sunlight.
- The vast majority of skin cancer cases are not life threatening.
- Despite the average amount of UV-exposure decreasing in developed countries, rates of skin cancer, including melanoma, are skyrocketing. UV radiation cannot explain the massive increase in skin cancer rates.
There are strategies to increase your skin's resistance to the damage incurred by sunlight exposure through dietary and exposure habits. These will be discussed in the next post, where these practices will be outlined with the intention of educating on how to reap all the disease preventing benefits of sunlight exposure, while minimizing damage. Sounds like a win-win, and it is indeed possible.

Will a Nicotine Patch Make You Smarter?
Back home in New Jersey, I read through dozens of human and animal studies published over the past five years showing that nicotine—freed of its noxious host, tobacco, and delivered instead by chewing gum or transdermal patch—may prove to be a weirdly, improbably effective cognitive enhancer and treatment for relieving or preventing a variety of neurological disorders, including Parkinson's, mild cognitive impairment, ADHD, Tourette's, and schizophrenia. Plus it has long been associated with weight loss. With few known safety risks.
Nicotine? Yes, nicotine.
In fact—and this is where the irony gets mad deep—the one purpose for which nicotine patches have proven futile is the very same one for which they are approved by the Food and Drug Administration, sold by pharmacies over the counter, bought by consumers, and covered by many state Medicaid programs: quitting smoking. In January 2012, a six-year follow-up study of 787 adults who had recently quit smoking found that those who used nicotine replacement therapy in the form of a patch, gum, inhaler, or nasal spray had the same long-term relapse rate as those who did not use the products. Heavy smokers who tried to quit without the benefit of counseling were actually twice as likely to relapse if they used a nicotine replacement product.
"I understand that smoking is bad," said Maryka Quik, director of the Neurodegenerative Diseases Program at SRI International, a nonprofit research institute based in California's Silicon Valley. "My father died of lung cancer. I totally get it."
Yet for years Quik has endured the skepticism and downright hostility of many of her fellow neuroscientists as she has published some three dozen studies revealing the actions of nicotine within the mammalian brain.
"The whole problem with nicotine is that it happens to be found in cigarettes," she told me. "People can't disassociate the two in their mind, nicotine and smoking. It's not the general public that annoys me, it's the scientists. When I tell them about the studies, they should say, 'Wow.' But they say, 'Oh well, that might be true, but I don't see the point.' It's not even ignorance. It's their preconceived ideas and inflexibility."
I met Quik at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience held in Washington, D.C. Amid thousands of studies presented in a cavernous exhibition hall, the title of hers jumped out: "Nicotine Reduces L-dopa-Induced Dyskinesias by Acting at 2 Nicotinic Receptors."
"A huge literature says that smoking protects against Parkinson's,"she said. "It started as a chance observation, which is frequently the most interesting kind."
The first hint of nicotine's possible benefits, I learned, came from a study published in 1966 by Harold Kahn, an epidemiologist at the National Institutes of Health. Using health-insurance data on 293,658 veterans who had served in the U.S. military between 1917 and 1940, he found the kinds of associations between smoking and mortality that even by the mid-1960s had become well known. At any given age, cigarette smokers were eleven times more likely to have died of lung cancer as were nonsmokers and twelve times more likely to have died of emphysema. Cancers of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, larynx—blah, blah, blah. But amid the lineup of usual suspects, one oddball jumped out: Parkinson's disease. Strangely enough, death due to the neurodegenerative disorder, marked by loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the midbrain, occurred at least three times more often in nonsmokers than in smokers.
What was it about tobacco that ravages the heart, lungs, teeth, and skin but somehow guards against a disease of the brain? Over the course of the 1970s, neuroscientists like Quik learned that the nicotine molecule fits into receptors for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine like a key into a lock. By managing to slip through doors marked "Acetylcholine Only," nicotine revealed a special family of acetylcholine receptors hitherto unknown.
And what a family. Nicotinic receptors turn out to have the extraordinary capacity to moderate other families of receptors, quieting or amplifying their functioning. According to psychopharmacologist Paul Newhouse, director of the Center for Cognitive Medicine at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, "Nicotinic receptors in the brain appear to work by regulating other receptor systems. If you're sleepy, nicotine tends to make you more alert. If you're anxious, it tends to calm you."
The primary neurotransmitter that nicotine nudges is dopamine, which plays an important role in modulating attention, reward-seeking behaviors, drug addictions, and movement. And therein lies the answer to the mystery of why nicotine could prevent a movement disorder like Parkinson's disease, due to its effects on dopamine.
To put the drug to the test, Quik treated rhesus monkeys with Parkinson's with nicotine. After eight weeks, she reported in a landmark 2007 paper in the Annals of Neurology, the monkeys had half as many tremors and tics. Even more remarkably, in monkeys already receiving L-dopa, the standard drug for Parkinson's, nicotine reduced their dyskinesias by an additional one-third. Studies of nicotine in humans with Parkinson's are now under way, supported by the Michael J. Fox Foundation.
Other research suggests the drug may protect against the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. A study involving sixty-seven people with mild cognitive impairment, in which memory is slightly impaired but decision-making and other cognitive abilities remain within normal levels, found "significant nicotine-associated improvements in attention, memory, and psychomotor speed," with excellent safety and tolerability.
"What we saw was consistent with prior studies showing that nicotinic stimulation in the short run can improve memory, attention, and speed," said Newhouse, who led the study.
As Newhouse sees it, "Obviously the results of small studies often aren't replicated in larger studies, but at least nicotine certainly looks safe. And we've seen absolutely no withdrawal symptoms. There doesn't seem to be any abuse liability whatsoever in taking nicotine by patch in nonsmokers. That's reassuring."
That's not reassuring: it's totally bizarre. Nicotine has routinely been described in news accounts as among the most addictive substances known. As the New York Times Magazine famously put it in 1987, "nicotine is as addictive as heroin, cocaine or amphetamines, and for most people more addictive than alcohol."
But that's just wrong. Tobacco may well be as addictive as heroin, crack, alcohol, and Cherry Garcia combined into one giant crazy sundae. But as laboratory scientists know, getting mice or other animals hooked on nicotine all by its lonesome is dauntingly difficult. As a 2007 paper in the journal Neuropharmacology put it, "Tobacco use has one of the highest rates of addiction of any abused drug. Paradoxically, in animal models, nicotine appears to be a weak reinforcer."
That same study, like many others, found that other ingredients in tobacco smoke are necessary to amp up nicotine's addictiveness. Those other chemical ingredients—things like acetaldehyde, anabasine, nornicotine, anatabine, cotinine, and myosmine—help to keep people hooked on tobacco. On its own, nicotine isn't enough.
But what about nicotine as a cognitive enhancer for people without Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or any other brain disease?
"To my knowledge, nicotine is the most reliable cognitive enhancer that we currently have, bizarrely," said Jennifer Rusted, professor of experimental psychology at Sussex University in Britain when we spoke. "The cognitive-enhancing effects of nicotine in a normal population are more robust than you get with any other agent. With Provigil, for instance, the evidence for cognitive benefits is nowhere near as strong as it is for nicotine."
In the past six years, researchers from Spain, Germany, Switzerland, and Denmark—not to mention Paul Newhouse in Vermont—have published over a dozen studies showing that in animals and humans alike, nicotine administration temporarily improves visual attention and working memory. In Britain, Rusted has published a series of studies showing that nicotine increases something called prospective memory, the ability to remember and implement a prior intention. When your mother asks you to pick up a jar of pickles while you're at the grocery store, she's saddling you with a prospective memory challenge.
"We've demonstrated that you can get an effect from nicotine on prospective memory," Rusted said. "It's a small effect, maybe a 15 percent improvement. It's not something that's going to have a massive impact in a healthy young individual. But we think it's doing it by allowing you to redeploy your attention more rapidly, switching from an ongoing task to the target. It's a matter of cognitive control, shutting out irrelevant stimuli and improving your attention on what's relevant."
Of course, all the physicians and neuroscientists I interviewed were unanimous in discouraging people from using a nicotine patch for anything other than its FDA-approved purpose, as an aid to quit smoking, until large studies involving hundreds of people establish the true range of benefits and risks (even though studies find it doesn't work for that purpose). But with so many studies showing that it's safe, and so many suggesting it might well be the most effective cognitive enhancer now on the market, I decided to ignore not only their advice but the advice of my personal physician.
I added a nicotine patch to my list [of things to try to become smarter.]

Is there benefit to the Gardasil vaccine? Opponents say no.
The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is given to prevent the risk of cancer associated with HPV and is typically administered between the ages of eight and 26. Opponents argue that not only is the vaccine risky, but it is of no value.
The HPV vaccine effects are said to last for only about five years.
In a Health Impact News Daily Post dated today, Dr. Mark Flannery states that, "The problem with this vaccine is this: Even though it's estimated 60 percent of women have the HPV virus, only 1-2 percent of the total population gets cervical cancer, and most of those women get the cancer in their 50s. If the vaccine only works for five years, is administered up to age 26, and yet most cases of cervical cancer happen to women in their 50s, the benefits of the Gardasil vaccine are questionable given the severe consequences it can cause."
In Dr. Flannery's practice, he has worked with a number of people injured by the Gardasil vaccine for HPV and, according to SaneVax, Inc., as of 2013 more than 32,000 people have reported adverse affects to the Gardasil vaccine, more than 145 have died, over 1,000 are permanently disabled, and more than 6,400 have yet to recover. Dr. Flannery writes, "The evidence shows HPV rarely proceeds to cancer and that very few women with HPV develop cervical cancer, as other risk factors are involved."
More than 30 to 40 types of HPV are typically transmitted through sexual contact and infect the anogenital region. Some sexually transmitted HPV types may cause genital warts. PositiveSingles, a trusted online dating site for people with HPV, Syphilis and other STDs in the Unted States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and Europe has information on the latest treatments for sexually transmitted infections as well as locations where someone with HPV or another STD can receive appropriate health care or find the support they need.

The Art and Science of Nutritional Ketosis
Carbohydrate restricted diets are commonly practiced but seldom taught. As a result, doctors, dietitians, nutritionists, and nurses may have strong opinions about low carbohydrate dieting, but in many if not most cases, these views are not grounded in science.
"The Art and Science of Nutritional Ketosis" was presented by Stephen Phinney, MD, PhD, UC Davis at the University of California on November 16th, 2012. It will inspire you to think more carefully about sugars and starches in your diet, and empower you with essential knowledge to help you achieve long-lasting health and well-being.

Why dark chocolate is good for your heart
It might seem too good to be true, but dark chocolate is good for you and scientists now know why. Dark chocolate helps restore flexibility to arteries while also preventing white blood cells from sticking to the walls of blood vessels. Both arterial stiffness and white blood cell adhesion are known factors that play a significant role in atherosclerosis. What's more, the scientists also found that increasing the flavanol content of dark chocolate did not change this effect. This discovery was published in the March 2014 issue of The FASEB Journal.
"We provide a more complete picture of the impact of chocolate consumption in vascular health and show that increasing flavanol content has no added beneficial effect on vascular health," said Diederik Esser, Ph.D., a researcher involved in the work from the Top Institute Food and Nutrition and Wageningen University, Division of Human Nutrition in Wageningen, The Netherlands. "However, this increased flavanol content clearly affected taste and thereby the motivation to eat these chocolates. So the dark side of chocolate is a healthy one."
To make this discovery, Esser and colleagues analyzed 44 middle-aged overweight men over two periods of four weeks as they consumed 70 grams of chocolate per day. Study participants received either specially produced dark chocolate with high flavanol content or chocolate that was regularly produced. Both chocolates had a similar cocoa mass content. Before and after both intervention periods, researchers performed a variety of measurements that are important indicators of vascular health. During the study, participants were advised to refrain from certain energy dense food products to prevent weight gain. Scientists also evaluated the sensory properties of the high flavanol chocolate and the regular chocolate and collected the motivation scores of the participants to eat these chocolates during the intervention.
"The effect that dark chocolate has on our bodies is encouraging not only because it allows us to indulge with less guilt, but also because it could lead the way to therapies that do the same thing as dark chocolate but with better and more consistent results," said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. "Until the 'dark chocolate drug' is developed, however, we'll just have to make do with what nature has given us!"

US Government Orders 14 Million Doses of Potassium Iodide
Huge purchase linked to ongoing Fukushima crisis?
UPDATE: Plumes of mysterious steam rise from crippled nuclear reactor at Fukushima
The Department of Health and Human Services has ordered 14 million doses of potassium iodide, the compound that protects the body from radioactive poisoning in the aftermath of severe nuclear accidents, to be delivered before the beginning of February.
According to a solicitation posted on the Federal Business Opportunities website, the DHHS asks contractors to supply, "potassium iodide tablet, 65mg, unit dose package of 20s; 700,000 packages (of 20s)," a total of 14 million tablets. The packages must be delivered on or before February 1, 2014.
Potassium iodide helps block radioactive iodine from being absorbed by the thyroid gland and is used by victims of severe nuclear accidents or emergencies. Under current regulations, states with populations living within 10 miles of a nuclear plant are encouraged, but not required, to maintain a supply of potassium iodide.
A search of the FedBizOpps website returns no other results regarding the purchase of potassium iodide from any government agency, suggesting that the DHHS bulk buy of the tablets is unprecedented in recent times.
The ongoing crisis at the Fukushima nuclear power plant has prompted concerns that the purchase is connected to the threat posed by radioactive debris washing up on the shores of the west coast or the potential for another natural disaster occurring in Japan which could impact the U.S.
"Governments usually respond to disasters very similarly; first move is to avoid panic," writes The West Wire. "The Japanese didn't want to panic the world, or tarnish their honor and now, as a consequence of their reluctance, Japanese citizens and international aid personal find themselves in a horrible state of being."
"Panic is usually avoided by keeping their citizens as blind to the truth as possible, until confrontation with the truth becomes inevitable. The crucial question at this juncture; "would our government be reluctant about warning us of potential disaster, in an attempt to avoid panic?" 14 million doses of Potassium Iodide say that might just be the case."
Last month it was revealed that 71 U.S. sailors who helped during the initial Fukushima relief efforts are suing the Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) after they returned with thyroid cancer, Leukemia, and brain tumors as a result of being exposed to radiation at 300 times the safe level.
TEPCO has repeatedly been caught lying in their efforts to downplay the scale of the disaster. In September it was confirmed that radiation readings around the power plant were 18 times higher than previously reported by TEPCO. After a tank leaked 300 tonnes of toxic water in August, groundwater radiation readings at the plant soared to 400,000 becquerels per litre, the highest reading since the nuclear accident occurred in March 2011.
Top scientists have warned that if another major earthquake hits Fukushima, which is almost inevitable, it would mean "bye bye Japan" and the complete evacuation of the west coast of North America.
Now that radioactive debris is hitting the West Coast of North America, numerous different animals and sea life are suffering from mysterious diseases, including 20 bald eagles that have died in Utah over the last few weeks alone.

Potassium Iodate (KIO3) form is superior to Potassium Iodide (KI) because the iodide has a much shorter shelf life than the iodate and has a bitter taste that makes it difficult to administer to children.

It's 15 years since some Watford fans camped out overnight for play-off tickets
5:30am Thursday 15th May 2014 in Latest Sport
Friday, May 15, 1999
Tickets went on sale for the away leg of the play-off semi-final against Birmingham City at St Andrew's.
The queue for tickets had begun to take shape the previous evening; significant numbers arrived after the town's pubs closed, and the throng was well into four figures by the crack of dawn with sleeping bags, folding chairs and even the odd tent dotting Occupation Road.
Later in the day, less excitable supporters were able to walk up to the ticket office and secure their tickets without needing to queue.

No one wanted to make an issue of it but he did get comments like I hope you win in the final. A few Wolves supporters said they were sick that they let Graham Taylor go. Wolves finished 7th that season.

Create a more tranquil environment with plants. There are many low maintenance plants that need minimal care and are known to add oxygen to the air. Try considering: jade, ivy, ficus, cactus, chinese evergreen, palm, orchid or a bonsai.
These are a few ideas. Any other ways to create a peaceful office?
Make the most of December. Attend holiday parties, community events and chamber of commerce events. Between now and December 15th be sure to network. Let it be known that you're in business and connect in the community.
Have plenty of business cards. Always carry a business card. Even in social settings, you may share contact information. And, it's a signal to people that you are serious about your business, when you do have cards at the ready.
Don't be in the position of asking for a pen and note paper to share your contact information. Always get a business card from people you meet to add to your list of contacts.
If your business information has changed during the year, be sure to include a business card with your holiday greeting cards to business associates. Keep in touch and keep your info current.

Paul Krugman, New York (NY) Times

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. (photo: AP)
When Detroit declared bankruptcy, or at least tried to — the legal situation has gotten complicated — I know that I wasn't the only economist to have a sinking feeling about the likely impact on our policy discourse. Was it going to be Greece all over again?
Clearly, some people would like to see that happen. So let's get this conversation headed in the right direction, before it's too late.
O.K., what am I talking about? As you may recall, a few years ago Greece plunged into fiscal crisis. This was a bad thing but should have had limited effects on the rest of the world; the Greek economy is, after all, quite small (actually, about one and a half times as big as the economy of metropolitan Detroit). Unfortunately, many politicians and policy makers used the Greek crisis to hijack the debate, changing the subject from job creation to fiscal rectitude.

It's Our Economy
July 10, 2013 | Another jobs report is in and it shows continued waddling along in job creation, just enough to keep the unemployment figure stable. The reality is the collapse has cost the nation 3 million jobs and that number is not shrinking. The "Lost Out-Put Clock" shows the nation has lost $4,602,667,601,6089 in national income and counting since the 2008 collapse.
To make matters worse we are now entering a new reality of poor jobs, part-time and temporary, and low-paying without benefits like health insurance. Big business makes big profits off these workers but treats them like they are disposable people. Workers with health care will not see benefits from Obamacare, indeed things will likely get worse. This comes after years of stagnant wages, and at a time when CEO pay continues its rapid increase. The wealth divide is worsening as the 'haves' and 'have-not's' become more extreme.

July 7, 2013 | Friday's employment report wasn't bad. But given how depressed our economy remains, we really should be adding more than 300,000 jobs a month, not fewer than 200,000. As the Economic Policy Institute points out, we would need more than five years of job growth at this rate to get back to the level of unemployment that prevailed before the Great Recession. Full recovery still looks a very long way off. And I'm beginning to worry that it may never happen.
Ask yourself the hard question: What, exactly, will bring us back to full employment?

Submitted by Evergreene Digest Contributing Editor Gary Kohls
Sunday, July 7, 2013 | As the panic over the destiny of the Federal Reserve's "quantitative easing" program reaches hysterical proportions, uncommonly bizarre economic anomalies are surfacing. In the last week of June, the news that first quarter US Gross Domestic Product growth report was reduced dramatically from 2.4% to 1.8% was met by an equally dramatic, but paradoxical positive jump in equity markets. Normally, a rather staggering drop in GDP estimates would trigger stock market losses-- investor confidence would be battered. But the opposite occurred.
What's going on?
Pundits and investors hailed the bad news because they hope that it will keep the Federal Reserve committed to the $85 billion per month bond purchasing project dubbed "quantitative easing." They believe that the Fed would not dare to relax the program in the face of poor economic performance. And they recognize that without the Fed's foot firmly pressing the accelerator, the capitalist economy will stagnate or slow. The Federal Reserve program is truly a life-support system for our economy, and capitalism's apologists recognize that they are in deep trouble without it. Therefore, investors welcomed the fall in GDP growth!

Friday, July 5, 2013 | The problem with us progressives at this time of crisis is not that we lack an alternative paradigm to pit against the discredited neoliberal paradigm. No, the elements of the alternative based on the values of democracy, justice, equality, and environmental sustainability are there and have been there for some time, the product of collective intellectual and activist work over the last few decades.
The key problem is the failure of progressives to translate their vision and values into a program that is convincing and connects with the people trapped in the terrible existential conditions created by the global financial crisis. This fluid process is preeminently political. It requires translating a strategic perspective into a tactical program that takes advantage of the opportunities, ambiguities, and contradictions of the present moment to construct a critical mass for progressive change from diverse class and social forces.
Shahien Nasiripour, Huffington Post
06/14/2013 | As much as half of U.S. economic growth this year has been slashed due to tax increases and indiscriminate federal spending cuts known as sequestration, according to a sobering new forecast by the International Monetary Fund, which urged lawmakers to repeal the cuts.
Risks to U.S. growth are "modestly tilted to the downside," the IMF said in its annual report on the nation's economy, as a reduction of $85 billion in government expenditures this year due to sequestration has dampened demand and investment, just as tax hikes have taken a big bite out of U.S. paychecks and reduced household spending.

The $8 million facility will provide homes for 50 people who suffer from mental illness and have also been in the criminal justice system.
They'll live in freestanding cottages and will also get intensive mental health and social services.
The project is supported by a number of public and private organizations in the Dallas area.

Michael Haneke on Movies: 'The Ideal Film Scene Should Force the Spectator to Look Away'
Austrian director Michael Haneke is well known for "shocking" films like Funny Games (which he actually made twice in different languages), but there's no question he also knows a thing or about creating a beautiful image, as can be seen in the gorgeous black and white Oscar-nominee The White Ribbon. One of Haneke's greatest strengths is playing to audience expectations and showing, or not showing, pivotal mounts of his films on screen. In the interview embedded below, he talks about his views on violence in film, the extent to which it can be used, and his thoughts on the ideal film scene.
Michael Haneke – Cinephile Interview Magazine
His views on filmmaking technique are numerous, but certainly one of the more powerful elements of his cinema are what is seen and what is not seen. A great lesson in writing is "show, don't tell," but in this case, it's "imply, don't show." (thanks Gregg) Some of the more powerful moments of any film regardless of genre can be executed through the use of audio and certain visual cues to let the audience imagine what is going on. Rather than giving everything away, letting our imaginations get the best of us as an audience can be far more powerful than seeing everything that is happening in a film.
So as not to spoil any of his films, one of the most well-known uses of this technique happened by accident during The Godfather: Part II. Marlon Brando was supposed to make a cameo in a flashback at the end of the film, but he decided not to show up during the day of shooting. In the scene, they are planning a surprise birthday party for Brando's character Don Corleone, but instead of seeing his arrival (which would have been impossible without Brando), we see Michael Corleone sitting alone at the dinner table as we hear the family celebrate in the other room. This wasn't the way Coppola had originally intended the scene to be, but it plays out far more powerfully as we watch Michael contemplate his future.
Does anyone have any favorite examples from other films that use this technique?

We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!
Michael Haneke is a fellow Austrian director, not German
Joe Marine on 05.20.12 @ 7:14PM
My mistake, he was born in Germany.
Gregg Toland on 05.20.12 @ 7:49PM
…'infer, don't show'.
Imply not infer.
Joe Marine on 05.20.12 @ 7:52PM
Yep, that's what I meant to say, but close enough I think.
Matt N. on 05.20.12 @ 8:56PM
I was very young when I watched this film, but that one particularly amde me realize the power of an absent image and sound filling that gap. It is bit of a step from Haneke to that one, but in "The Lost World", after Pete Postlethwaite has hunt down that living dinosaur, Arliss Howard's character approaches him with a look of awe and almost disbelief at what lies before the two men. But we don't see the half-sleeping T-Rex, we just hear his deep, deep slow breath as the main feature of that brief but beautifully economic scene. One can not really say that TLW is an overlooked film, but it has many of these little moments of directorial wit that make it enjoyable from an entertaining point of view aside from the major thrills…
Tiago Carvalho on 05.20.12 @ 10:30PM
Poetic and almost unbearable, the rape scene in Theo Angelopoulos (RIP), "Landscape in the Mist". You don´t hear or see anything, but still it hits you like a hammer.
guto novo on 05.20.12 @ 11:41PM
Bresson is also a master of the unseen in cinema with some good lessons. :)
Joe Marine on 05.20.12 @ 11:49PM
Yeah totally forgot about him, there's the opening scene in Pickpocket at the race track where you never see any horses actually racing – but you hear it, and it adds to the suspense of Michel stealing money from the purse.
guto novo on 05.20.12 @ 11:58PM
tombeet on 05.30.12 @ 9:57AM
It's no surprise though, Haneke's styles are influenced a lot by Bresson. Haneke even listed Au Hasard Balthazar by Bresson as one of the best film ever made.
And Salo also makes a huge impact to Hanake.
if you find his films too depressing and stop watching them altogether, will he count that as ultimate victory?
Michael Haneke has had a massive influence on me in the way he shoots and the realism and philosophy of his film making.
Code Unknown and The Piano Teacher are two of my favourite films of all time, beautiful pieces of work.
Conan on 05.21.12 @ 6:12PM
Haneke is the great modern horror film maker. I remember watching Funny Games by accident. Unforgettable film. The opening shot in Cache just made me smile for days. He doesn't abide and we love him for it.
Adam McKay on 05.22.12 @ 11:08AM
One of the best moments of this is from White Ribbon when the boy is beaten in the other room.
MARK GEORGEFF on 05.25.12 @ 12:11AM
Totally agree with holding back; inferring all the time. But to be honest? My experiences with trying to break in solely as a screenwriter with specs — until it happened a year or so out of film school — was dealing with the whole reader process. Which, for the most part, is b.s.
They simply don't want anyone holding anything back.
They don't want inference.
They really don't want to be challenged or think when they have to read a lot of
crappy scripts — many of them being sent through the big agencies — by working writers,
already established in the system.
And a lot of these industry readers, don't want to be readers.
It's an entry level job for many who want to be producers.
And the fastest way for them to promote is to say no to just about everything.
I love this article, because it's solid…it works…and Hitchcock
used it in so many of his films which have stood the test of time.
Now…how do you get around this great information when the system is
really set up to keep you out?
In this digital world now and for the future…shoot your own work.
Or…produce it.
Find a way…to get your work to the audience without
necessarily playing the game the system has controlled for so long.
Maybe it's a short; a web series; maybe a trailer — like I'm doing — to show
investors that you really know what you're doing as a writer-producer;
or as a director-writer-producer like myself.
As in…I can make them money with my work.
It's a lot of work in the process; but it'll probably be
a more sure way toward success…than just using
inference in my writing…to get it to the right people.
And sad to say…it's not trying to go through the readers.
Good luck.
Heiko on 05.27.12 @ 6:23PM
The White Ribbon was one of the best movies I have seen in years. Maybe on of the best movies ever (in my book)
Peter Horne on 12.11.12 @ 8:21AM
Would be mostly interested in a original/french version of Amour. Where can I find it ?
