Analysis & Opinion
Islamic State's rules of attraction, and why U.S. countermoves are doomed
The U.S. State Department is producing anti-Islamic State propaganda to persuade American and other would-be jihadis not to join the extremist group. It's ham-handed, and often sarcastic, and unlikely to have the intended effect.
Here's why Israel loses no sleep over Islamic StateAt first sight, it seems that Israel is just as preoccupied with the rise of Islamic State as anyone else. That's not the case.
Fragility is bigger worry than volatility for the marketsRecent rollercoaster markets are a symptom of a more concerning malady. They reflect the shock accompanying recognition that widely accepted assumptions about everything from monetary policy to geopolitics, and even the state of global health, are dangerously flimsy.
Lessons of Ebola: Unequal in life, unequal in deathDr. Margaret Chan, who leads the World Health Organization, sent her chief of staff to a WHO regional conference in Manila to spotlight something we rarely keep in our conscious mind and don't, collectively, do much about: Inequalities can be a matter of ever-longer life, or a most miserable death.
Being the 'indispensable nation' is killing American democracyThis former constitutional law professor has governed over the greatest assertion of executive authority -- claiming the power to make war, to surveil, arrest, detain and even kill Americans without prior judicial review or due process.
Clear-eyed dissent from Supreme Court's ruling to allow Texas voter ID lawThe decision to allow Texas' restrictive voter ID requirements did not articulate the Court's reasoning, but a blistering dissent made clear that its basis was not Senate Bill 14, but rather the confusion that a change so close to the election might create.
GamerGate: We now know what evil lurks in the heart of man – or trollsNot all murderous bile is created equal. While readers have vowed to kill or otherwise rough me up over the years, I wouldn't equate those generic promises with what other writers -- especially female ones -- say they face routinely on the Web.

This is Steven Salzberg's blog on genomics, pseudoscience, medical breakthroughs, higher education, and other topics, including skepticism about unscientific medical practices. Here's where I can say what I really think about abuses and distortions of science, wherever I see them.
Stem cell heroes and villains
Then, this past Thursday, a federal appeals court announced a temporary stay on Judge Lamberth's ruling, which allows the funding to continue. However, the court gave both sides only until September 20th to make new arguments, and the research could again be called to a halt before the month is out. Many scientists, including this one, hope the appeals court will throw out the case and let the research proceed.*
Stem cell research is one of the most promising opportunities for truly revolutionary breakthroughs in human health that we've seen in decades. Unfortunately, its progress has been slowed dramatically in the U.S. due to objections from the religious right, which mistakenly confuses stem cell research with abortion. Many of these opponents don't seem to know that thousands of fertilized human eggs are discarded every year, perfectly legally, by fertility clinics, and their opposition to embryonic stem cell research only serves to hamper progress on life-saving cures.
So who is the villain in this latest battle? Much of the media attention has focused on Judge Lamberth, whose interpretation of the Dickey-Wicker amendment has been disputed by many legal and medical experts (for example, here and here). I don't want to re-hash those arguments here. Instead, let's take a look at the so-called scientists who filed the case, and examine their claims.
The case that halted all embryonic stem cell research was filed by James L. Sherley and Theresa Deisher, with the backing of anti-abortion groups. Sherley is at the Boston Biomedical Research Institute (BBRI), a small research institute in Boston, and Deisher is at a small startup company in Seattle called AVM Biotechnology. Both work on adult stem cells. Their main claim in the lawsuit is that the 2009 executive order by President Obama, which broadened the types of embryonic stem cell research permitted in the U.S., caused them "irreparable harm." Why? Because, they argued, this would allow other researchers to compete against them for federal funds, making it harder for them to obtain funding.
As a scientist, I have to say that this is a ridiculous argument. It might make sense to a judge or a lawyer, but it is almost the antithesis of what science is all about. Sherley and Deisher are saying, essentially, that we should fund their work instead of more promising, better research. In other words, they're admitting that their work won't make the cut if it has to compete against embryonic stem cell research. So they admit that their work is, basically, not very good – but they still want funding, and therefore they sued the government. As my colleague, stem cell scientist Dr. Curt Civin said, "These guys are using a court process in what should be a scientific process."
Sherley is a notorious publicity hound. When he was denied tenure by MIT in 2007, he went on a hunger strike (briefly) to draw attention to his case. MIT stuck by its decision, and the EEOC ruled that MIT had "bona-fide, legitimate, and nondiscriminatory reasons for its actions" in denying him tenure. Sherley left and joined BBRI, a far less prestigious institute than MIT.
A good scientist would be embarrassed to admit publicly – as Sherley has done in his lawsuit – that he can't win funding if he's forced to compete. And I can see why Sherley is worried: a PubMed search reveals that he hasn't published any new scientific papers since 2008, and his own website at BBRI shows the same thing. So maybe his problem isn't that his work is inferior – it's just that he isn't doing any research at all. This reveals the hypocrisy of his lawsuit: if he's not even publishing, he can't possibly expect to win NIH funding, which undercuts his claim that he is being "harmed" by NIH's policy on embryonic stem cell research. (And Sherley and Deisher admitted to the Wall St. Journal that they were recruited by lawyers to file this lawsuit.)
If Sherley wants to continue to function as a working scientist – and I'm not convinced that he does – then he needs to act like one. Scientists don't sue when someone else comes up with a better idea. Instead, we get to work. Sherley should drop his lawsuit and get back to the lab.
(See also my fellow blogger Matt Herper's post on this topic.)

You notice the similarity in the argument by Sherley and Deisher now, and Bush v. Gore in 2000? You remember the irreperable harm COUNTING THE VOTES would cause Bush? And what was that irreperable harm? Why, he would lose the election!ReplyDelete
Just as continuing stem cell research would harm S & D by allowing better research to continue...
Bush prevailed, as we all know, as I expect S & D will also, in a world gone mad.
Juvenile is the first word that popped into mind about this. Lazy scientists afraid to lose their funding recruiting help from the self-righteous right, like some slacker in class cheating on an exam off their neighbor in exchange for some special favor after school.ReplyDelete
We shouldn't have to hope that some insane yet strangely altruistic mad scientist with unlimited funding is secretly working ways to exploit the mechanisms of stem cell to benefit everyone for whom such therapy would be a lifesaver.
Yet, in the face of this kind of sad revelation, I'd gladly throw that scientist some coin myself.

You may not know the name Brian Collins, but you've probably heard about him…. He was the Ball State University freshman whose college TV sportscast in 2005 was so awful that it became a YouTube sensation (4.6 million hits), and landed him on David Letterman's show (Dave's a BSU grad, of course). As a last-minute replacement, Collins fumbled through the sportscast in 2005, only to utter the phrase "Boom goes the dynamite!" as an Indiana Pacers player hit a basket. Maybe you saw the update on him in Sports Illustrated last week. But most of you probably didn't know that Collins has been working this summer as a production assistant for Fox 19. He resigned Friday.
You never saw him on WXIX-TV. The 2008 Ball State grad did a variety of off-camera jobs at Fox 19: camera operator, TelePrompter operator, web producer. Prior to Ch 19, he was an on-air reporter for the ABC station in Waco, Texas. He was hired here in May. Now he's heading to a smaller market, says Matt Miller, news director.
"He's a really sincere kid who had a really bad moment," Miller says. "He's a good kid. He really wants to do on-air work, and he needs to go to a smaller market to work on those skills."
If you've never seen it, here's the YouTube link to his sportscast, which is described as the "worst newscaster… ever." And here's the SI story on him. Good luck, Brian.

Daily Strength for Daily Needs - April 21
April 21
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.--MATT. v. 48.
As for me, I will behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.--PS. xvii. 15.
The righteousness he marks in Thee
His will to right doth win;
Delighting in Thy purity,
He deeply drinks it in.
To love God is to love His character. For instance, God is Purity. And to be pure in thought and look, to turn away from unhallowed books and conversation, to abhor the moments in which we have not been pure, is to love God. God is Love; and to love men till private attachments have expanded into a philanthropy which embraces all,--at last even the evil and enemies with compassion,--that is to love God. God is Truth. To be true, to hate every form of falsehood, to live a brave, true, real life,--that is to love God. God is Infinite; and to love the boundless, reaching on from grace to grace, adding charity to faith, and rising upwards ever to see the Ideal still above us, and to die with it unattained, aiming insatiably to be perfect even as the Father is perfect,--that is to love God.

Out of the 2013 recruiting class for Memphis, four of them are enrolled in school and are participating in the summer workouts. As for Kuran Iverson and Pookie Powell, they are faced with the possibility of becoming ineligible for the 2013-2014 season. At first, the fans would have known something about them in July. Now, the fans will not know anything until early August.
Iverson, the awesome 6-9, 210-pound shooting guard from Windsor, Conn., and Powell, the quick 6-1, 160-pound point guard from Orlando, FL., have not met the NCAA requirements for student-athletes. Coach Josh Pastner has said before and still says that he remains optimistic that both players will qualify but said the process is likely to stretch through the summer.
"There's a slight chance to get them here for Summer 2 (which begins July 9), but the probability would be that it's going to be a full summer situation, sort of like sophomore forward Damien Wilson last summer," said Pastner. "That's OK. The NCAA allows some extra courses throughout the summer and other opportunities to increase the sliding scale area."
The NCAA's Initial Eligibility Sliding Scale is pretty reasonable to be honest. They combine Division I student-athletes' grade point average with their ACT or SAT scores. If the student-athlete has a below-average GPA, he/she can bounce back from that with a high ACT or SAT score. This basically gives the student-athletes some room to mess around but handle business at the same time.
"They're doing everything they can, but it's a great lesson for everybody,"said Pastner. "I tell kids all of the time, 'What you do starting your freshman year in high school, every class counts. It just doesn't happen your senior year. The way it's set up, every single class that you take matters.'
"I have tremendous belief and optimism that they'll both be here. Whether they're here for Summer 2, I just want to get them here for the start of the fall. Will they be a little behind? No doubt. But we'll be able to catch 'em up. They just gotta get here."
Memphis has three senior guards in Joe Jackson, Chris Crawford, and Geron Johnson. All three will definitely see the floor a lot this upcoming season. Also, Missouri transfer Michael Dixon will be playing a lot of minutes, but the NCAA still has to decide his fate as a college basketball player. As for Powell, there is no way he will play a lot minutes with the talent of guards on the roster for Memphis.
Iverson is in a better situation than Powell. He will compete for playing time on the wing with Wilson and freshmen Nick King.
Jason Gardner, the new assistant coach for Memphis, arrived in Memphis on Saturday after his hiring was approved by the Tennessee Board of Regents.
Gardner, who was an All-American at Arizona, mentioned that he is looking forward to working for the Memphis Tigers Basketball Team. Also, he likes the fact that the city of Memphis thrives off of college hoops.
"I'm extremely excited," said Gardner. Gardner spent his last two seasons as an assistant coach for Loyola University of Chicago. His job at Memphis will be specializing in player development.
"Working for coach Pastner, he's young in the profession and he's doing a phenomenal job. He's already over 100 wins in four seasons and he's getting great talent. He's a great guy to learn from. I hear so much about the city as far as the love and the excitement they give you. I just think that's a great feeling that you have all that support behind you."
The University of Memphis Scholarship Fund will be hosting an open house on Sunday and Monday at the FedEx Forum. This is a great opportunity for the fans to buy season tickets for the 2013-2014 season.
Sunday's open house will take place from 2 to 6 p.m. It is open to TSF donors by level. Monday's open house is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. This particular open house is for all individuals looking for season tickets in the donation sections. Donations will range from $25-$260 for the Terrace Level seats and $775-$2,625 for Club and Plaza Level seats.
The Tigers' 2013-2014 home schedule will include some of the top schools in the country. They will have home games against Louisville, Cincinnati, UConn and Temple as well as a non-conference match-up against Gonzaga in February.
I received this information from the Commercial Appeal.

ENDOCRINOLOGY :: Problems in Puberty
Delayed Puberty
What is delayed puberty?
Puberty is said to be delayed when symptoms do not appear by age 13 for girls and age 14 for boys. Delayed puberty can be hereditary; the late onset of puberty may run in the families. However, delayed puberty may also be due to chromosomal abnormalities, genetic disorders, chronic illnesses, or tumors that damage the pituitary gland or the hypothalamus, which affect maturation.
What are the symptoms of delayed puberty?
Indications that a child may be experiencing delayed puberty is the noted lack of puberty symptoms. The following are the most common symptoms of delayed puberty. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
The symptoms of delayed puberty may resemble other problems or medical conditions. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
How is delayed puberty diagnosed?
In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination, diagnosis of delayed puberty may include:
Treatment for delayed puberty:
Specific treatment for delayed puberty will be determined by your child's physician based on:
Treatment for delayed puberty depends on the cause of the problem. Often, when the underlying cause is treated, puberty proceeds normally. If the delayed puberty is due to heredity, no treatment is usually necessary. In some cases, treatment may involve hormone therapy to stimulate the development of secondary sexual characteristics, or surgery to correct an anatomical problem.

Marissa Mayer: God, Family and Yahoo! (by tsevis)
A neofuturistic portrait of Marissa Mayer.
Yahoo! is a real internet legend. For an early Internet user like me Yahoo! was the internet. I still remember 18 years ago when I was opening the Yahoo! frond page to find something interesting. Sometime I had to wait so much for the page to load that I was leaving my Mac to go and prepare a coffee. Since the 90s a lot of time passed and nothing is the same. Yahoo! is still one of the Internet leaders but everything else changed. I have also changed. I don't think I could expect back then that I would collaborate with Yahoo! to create graphics for the coverage of the London 2012 Olympics. I couldn't imagine when I was opening my Flickr account in the early 00s that today our beloved Flickr would be plenty of avatars that I have designed. I wanted to celebrate this collaboration with Yahoo!. I wanted to make something outside any professional collaboration. So I have decided to create this portrait of CEO Marissa Mayer in a colorful neo-futuristic style.
Best viewed large. Attention: Big file. (9216 x 11578 pixels = 30.7" x 38.6" @ 300 ppi) Alternately you can zoom in to the high res (107 megapixels) file with Microsoft ZoomIt.
Made with custom developed scripts, hacks and lots of love, using my Mac, Studio Artist, the Adobe Creative Suite and good music.
See all my London 2012 Olympic Games graphics for Yahoo or my Avatars for the new Flickr.
Special thanks to everyone @ Yahoo!

Genre: Historical Romance
The only child of the cruel Marquis of Tragmore, Daphne Wyndham dreams of the legendary Tin Cup Bandit-a Robin Hood-style outlaw who turns his ill-gotten gains over to the poor. Daphne has never forgotten her one childhood visit to a squalid workhouse and the brutality she witnessed.
It is the bandit's adventures that fill Daphne with hope and enable her to rebel against her father's ruthless dictates. When the legend walks into her bedroom, Daphne believes she is living a dream.
Pierce Thornton has raised himself from workhouse brat to wealthy man with only one thought on his mind: revenge. He will bring the ton-especially Daphne's father-to ruin no matter what. However, his plans take a new course once he meets Daphne and inherits the title of the Duke of Markham.
To claim his birthright, Pierce must marry and sire an heir. When new circumstances arise, Pierce realizes that only by marrying Daphne can he both fulfill the stipulation and save her life.
As Pierce believes he has rescued Daphne, so too does she know that she will be the one to save his soul by sharing his work and bringing him the love he needs.
You'll be totally enamored of the Tin Cup Bandit and this delicious love story from a multi-talented author. Andrea Kane brings warmth, humor and passion to a story designed to lift your spirit and bring both a smile and tears to you heart. SENSUAL (June, 369 pp., $5.99)

Category — CREW
Successful Fixed Time Artificial Insemination in the Fishing Cat
CREW continues to make progress in improving the success of artificial insemination (AI) for propagating endangered
cats. In recent research, we incorporated treatment with oral progesterone (Regumate) into our AI protocol for domestic cats to down-regulate ovarian function prior to ovarian stimulation. This approach allows us to control ovarian activity more precisely and conduct AI procedures on a fixed time schedule.
Our first attempt using this method in exotic felids involved our fishing cat named Ratana,who was incapable of breeding naturally after losing a front leg due to injury. Ratana was fed a small amount of oral progesterone daily for one month to suppress her ovarian activity and then treated with gonadotropins to induce follicular growth and ovulation. Laparoscopic AI of both oviducts with freshly collected sperm from our resident male, named Gorton, resulted in conception and the birth of a male fishing cat kitten after a 69 day gestation.
This kitten was the first non-domestic cat born following the use of oral progesterone for fixed time AI, and represents the fifth cat species (fishing cat, ocelot, Pallas' cat, tiger, domestic cat) that we have produced with oviductal AI. This new approach could greatly advance our capacity to use AI for the genetic management of endangered felid species.

We Love our Volunteers
This year marks the 40th anniversary of National Volunteer Week and is also the 40th year that two dedicated ladies by the names of Madge Van Buskirk and Clara Dantic have volunteered at Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden. Volunteers are an essential part of the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden team and these two ladies demonstrate the enduring importance of recognizing our volunteers for their vital contributions.
Madge and Clara were fundamental in establishing the Zoo Volunteer Observer (ZVO's) program that is still in existence at the Zoo today. They coordinate a team of 50 individuals to conduct birth and behavioral watches as needed for animals in our collection. They have been busy lately scheduling ZVO's for the giraffe birth watch and polar bear reproductive behavior watch. The inception of this program began in 1974 to help ensure the safety of gorilla moms and babies. The fruits of their labor can be seen today in the many offspring that have been successfully born at our Zoo- including a bonobo named 'Clara' who still resides at our Zoo and a gorilla named 'Madge' who now is living at the Dallas Zoo.
If you don't find Madge and Clara at the Zoo, you will be sure to find at the ball park- they attend every home game for the Cincinnati Reds!
To all our Zoo volunteers, a big THANK YOU for everything you do to help make us successful!

Breeding North American River Otters
Charismatic and curious North American river otters are so much fun to watch, but to get them to breed? That's a whole lot trickier! North American river otters, as their name would suggest, live as far south as the Florida everglades, throughout most of the lower 48 states all the way north to the sub-arctic regions of US (Alaska) and Canada. For these otters, when to breed and give birth needs to be timed so the pups are born when it's not too cold and there are plenty of resources for mom and pup(s) to thrive. Basically, otters in the south give birth and breed much earlier in the season than otters living further north.
In addition, female otters undergo a process known as delayed implantation. Fertilized otter eggs start developing into embryos, but stop developing for 7-10 months until they are eventually triggered to implant into the uterine wall and develop once again. The female otter gives birth (litter size 1-4 pups) approximately 70 days after implantation starts. Delayed implantation is what, in part, helps river otters time when they give birth. So how does one know when implantation has occurred and when their otter may give birth? — By monitoring the hormones in their poop!
Each year starting usually November through January/February, US Zoos send otter fecal samples to CREW hoping to figure out if their otter may be pregnant and when she may be due. This season we monitored fecal samples from 11 river otter females and we were able to determine 8 of these females were possibly pregnant and 6 of those have already given birth {for example: pueblo zoo, buffalo Zoo}, making it a banner year for river otter babies!
However, the story doesn't end there. Our research has shown that female otters born further south and moved to another zoo much further north, don't always respond to the environmental cues encountered at their new latitude and adjust when they should breed and give birth – making it hard to know when to pair otters for breeding – but those fecal hormones have also proven useful in determining when to pair up otters as well {North Carolina}.

9 Stop ND Filter
I have always appreciated the pictures that photographers take of waterfalls that give the impression of slowing time rather than stopping it. You know the ones that I'm speaking of, in fact they are usually the only ones that are worth looking at. An image where everything is still, in perfect focus but the water keeps its fluidity resembling a viscous fog rolling over the edge. There is a magical quality to the image, as though you might walk into the scene and be able to exist in that moment.
In anticipation of a trip next week to Hanging Garden lake near Vail I purchased a 9 stop neutral density filter. What these filters do is limit the amount of light that is allowed through the lens, think sunglasses for your camera. 1 to 10 stops; that is the range that you can chose from and all along that scale you use the filters for different situations. The lower numbers you would use so that you may take pictures with a shallow depth of field on a bright, sunny day. The higher numbers are more for special effects rather than the more practical uses that the lower numbers. With a 9 or 10 stop ND filter you can keep your shutter open for thirty seconds or more in daylight allowing you to catch the movement of water, or negate an object that moves through the scene.
I took these images at the Denver Botanic Gardens because they are the closest waterfalls to me. My next city project is to go someplace that is always alive with people and use the filter to "remove" everything that is moving from the image. This hopefully means that I can capture the scene without all of the people.

2) More web product design talent. This is the scarcest talent of all (more so than engineering). NYC has perhaps the best design community in the world, but most of the designers are trained in non-web design fields (e.g. print design).
cdixon.org – chris dixon's blog / What the NYC startup world needs (and doesn't need)
I both agree and disagree with this. I don't think there is any shortage of web product design talent; the said designers need to realize, however, that they must be assertive with their visions and beliefs in order to do good work. This means saying 'no' a lot more than 'yes' to business people, and really respecting and engaging with developers.
The problem is not that there is a dearth of design talent, but a glut of 'idea people' who are great at spewing impressive sounding blather for investors. Of course this is the case though, it's New York.

MgPlus Guard by Perque delivers magnesium as ionized glyconate' ascorbate' citrate and C16 and C18 alkyls.
Although you may have other options for your magnesium supplementation needs' only Magnesium Plus Guard by Perque offers a combination of four transport cofactors. Each cofactor first transports magnesium to the cells that need it' and then adds a boost of energy when taking its place as an activator in the energy production pathway.
Why Supplement with Magnesium?
A survey by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Dietary Survey shows that more than 80 percent of Americans are deficient in the mineral magnesium. Since we know that magnesium deficiency can be caused or exacerbated by chronic stress and acid-producing foods and beverages' such as coffee' tea' alcohol' processed foods and refined sugars' this news should not be very surprising. The standard American diet is one that depletes the body's stores of magnesium.
Magnesium is a buffering mineral that the body uses to neutralize acids. Since the standard Western diet is so high in acidic foods and low in magnesium-rich foods' most Americans need to supplement their diet with a good magnesium source' such as Perque Magnesium Plus Guard. This mineral supplement delivers magnesium in completely soluble' fully ionized alkaline salts' which are ready to get into action' buffering the body against the damaging effects of excess acidity.
Some studies have shown that supplementing with magnesium may be even more effective at preventing and treating osteoporosis than even calcium. This is because magnesium plays a vital role in balancing the body's supply of calcium' keeping it from being excreted to balance blood pH. In addition' magnesium supports the absorption of vitamin D3 within the body. Vitamin D is vital to calcium absorption and overall bone health.
Why Magnesium Plus Guard?
Magnesium Plus Guard by Perque only contains pharmaceutical-grade ingredients or better' which are vital for keeping the bones dense with minerals. The key to increasing your body's magnesium store is in proper absorption. A supplement is deemed useless' if your body can't absorb an adequate amount of the mineral. As it is' most people can only absorb 4 to 30 percent of magnesium supplements on the market. This is because they usually contain the oxide or chloride forms of magnesium' which are innately difficult to absorb. The absorption rates vary so much because different people absorb magnesium differently. If you decide to take Perque's Magnesium Plus Guard' you will be supplying your body with four of the most highly-available forms of magnesium' giving your body the best chance for absorption.
If you are severely deficient in magnesium' magnesium supplements alone may not be enough to eliminate symptoms. In these cases' Perque recommends that you take its Choline Citrate product along with your magnesium supplement. Choline citrate has been found ot help carry magnesium through cell membranes' further increasing absorption.

Great Magnesium supplement
This is a really good magnesium supplement. I was having trouble with calf and arch cramping which I guess can be due to low magnesium levels. After starting this product I no longer am bothered with the cramping in my legs. I have had trouble tolerating other magnesium products but this one really agrees with my body and provides me good magnesium support. Also helps with sleep :)

Best magnesium mix
I was recommended by a local doctor to take magnesium on a regular basis. He said that Mg Plus Guard was the best type of magnesium mix because it has 4 different sources of magnesium. Im no expert and I havent done all kinds of testing but when I was a kid I took magnesium a lot (leg pains). Now I take Mg Plus Guard on a regular basis. Several people in my family have switched to Plus Guard as well.

Couldnt live without this!
I love Mg Plus Guard. I have a condition called Benign fasciculation syndrome (BFS) which is characterized by involuntary twitching. Mine mostly manifests itself in my eyelids and has plagued me for nearly three years. By taking Mg Plus Guard regularly I can keep the twitching under control. It has been a life saver for me! I highly recommend Mg Plus Guard.
I like that it has Magnesium in four different forms which aids with absorption. I also like that the capsules are free from most common allergens like gluten soy sugar and dairy.

You should check it out sometime). Now he tells the paper that it was meant to be very sincere. Im shocked that people find it condescending. To be honest, my fear was that people would find it corny. Conant goes on to heap praise on T-Dots local ingredients (though he admits he wont be getting anything from farmers' markets), and, in the end, hes let off the hook. Meanwhile, the folks at Oceana are also in damage-control mode.
During a recent date, blogger Chubby Chinese Girl says she was led through a main dining room that looked really white (as in, Caucasian) only to be seated in a back room where she was surrounded by Asians. Honestly, she wrote. you can't tell me this was all just a coincidence and we were just too sensitive. Oceana co-owner Paul McLaughlin told Midtown Lunch that the back room was actually the nice one, and we did 191 lunches Sunday, 95 guests were Asian or have Asian names. Thats 49%. McLaughlin wrote a longer e-mail to Eater: Oceana is a large restaurant with some 80 plus tables in all. The photograph intentionally shows only five tables grouped together who all happen to be Asian, a pure and total coincidence.
What Chubby Chinese Girl didnt know is that everyone in the less desirable main dining room was Canadian.

The only person with any sort of "hating" going on is you (not to

You should know that your quote from Einstein continues on to say "The
mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow
blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his
opinions courageously and honestly." Your statements throughout this
thread are rife with prejudicial assertions and hateful assumptions.
You might want to be more diligent with research and cautious in your
writings. Based on the full Einstein quote and your statements
throughout the thread, you could be perceived as someone in possession
of a "mediocre mind".

Thank you for imforming the list of your petty pet peeves. Basically
your saying that Guantanamo Bay should really be blamed on President
Roosevelt since he authorized the encarseration of Japanese decent US
citizens and blame GWB and Dick's approval to warrantless wiretapping on
Richard Nixon. Don't be a moron, politics have alot to do with
electronic security. If, your buddy GWB decides to enact a law that
prohibits all electronic chat on network security due to national
security. Would you then say politics has nothing to do with security.
