Eve Seymour
Eve is the author of four thrillers and probably best known for her central character, Paul Tallis, a former firearms officer who works as an off-the books spook for MI5. Her novel, 'Land of Ghosts,' set in bleak, war-torn Chechnya, was published in 2010 and her latest novel 'Wicked Game' will be published in August 2013 by Cutting Edge Press. The second novel in the 'Hex' Series will be published early 2014
The Good Book Guide wrote, 'Seymour is able to convey the excitement of the more straightforward brand of adventure thriller, while freighting in the subtle undertones of the more sophisticated novelists of the genre.'
In a ruthless bid to make her writing as genuine as possible, she has bent the ears of numerous police officers and developed contacts within the military, the United Nations, and various charities working with refugees and victims of war. She also once spent a memorable evening in a simulated laser suite with a firearms team at their secret headquarters and received a master class in weaponry. All of which only goes to prove that writers will do pretty much anything to recreate an authentic experience for their readers! She works as a book editor for the Writers' Workshop, concentrating particularly on crime and thrillers. (http://www.evseymour.co.uk/)

I am a retired Veterinarian; I doctored horses and cattle for 25 years and then I did only the Small Animals. The article I read in Discover Magazine on milk brought back many memories. When the farmers kept a milk cow on the farm to feed the weaner calves, there were few digestive problems.
But when no dairy cows were available they went to the local store and got Store Bought milk for the calves to drink. Soon the calves died with diarrhea.
I thought milk was milk but I soon found out that the Pasteurized and Homogenized milk could not be digested by these calves. Homogenization broke the fat globule into such a small bit that it wouldnt curd in the stomach and passed directly into the small intestine where it created severe inflammation. I called it toxic enteritis. I learned to treat these cases with Goats milk which has the largest fat globule of any milk found on the farm. The calves made a quick recovery if the patient hadnt gotten too debilitated.
I too drank a lot of milk when we milked cows on the farm. I never Had any adverse effects from drinking a quart or more at one time. When I went on to college and I was using store bought milk I got so I drank very little milk and what I did drink reacted in my system like a poison. I was told I was allergic to milk. Now 50 years later, a friend, who has a milk cow out in the country, asked me if I could use some milk. I accepted and for three years now I can drink milk like I did when I lived on the farm. I have no adverse side effects. This milk is raw milk, also not Homogenized. The only other question I have to answer has to do with the effect pasteurization has on the natural enzymes. The destruction of these during the pasteurization process could effect the digestibility of milk. Now that I am retired I have plenty of time to reflect on such things. What do you think?
Sincerely Yours,
Earl D. Smith, DVM

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
[help] BSOD by iastor.sys, and now cannot enter the system at all...
recently, my Windows 7 64 bit on my asus ul30vt crashes and it reports a iastor.sys and irql request on the bluescreen...
it practically bluescreens a few minutes after logging in at the first. since many options are still open, I was solving the problem on my own, trying system repair, doing command prompt, and restoring...here are the details:
- system repair, don't found anything to be repaired
- command prompt, trying to open the files using iexplore.exe, succeeded when opening explorer, but directly fails when trying to check device management, resulting in bluescreen everytime I start safe mode w/ command prompt
- system restore, restored to the oldest option, 4 days ago, (recently installed software: camtasia, xilinx ISE, corel x4, 3 critical windows updates, no change in hardware, didn't put up any new hardware)
now, my system won't let me enter my account at all, it works only until the login menu, when it loads the desktop, suddenly, blue everywhere...and now it varies, sometimes IRQ request, sometimes page in nonpaged area (or something like that), sometimes memory_management (or something), sometimes its the iastor.sys. somteimes it's the ntfs.sys
safe mode and safe mode w/command doesn't work at all..
never tried the safe mode w/ networking since it's not connected to any network (and I don't have one)
and since I joined sevenforums after I'm unable to login, I can't install the software to extract the dumpfile...
could anyone please tell me what's happening with my laptop and how to save it?
thx in advance

text: Hope the video works, I havent tried copying a video URL before. This video is about Planned Parenthood in America. A while ago some teenagers released a video posing allegations against Planned Parenthood and trying to make out that Planned Parenthood is one of the causes of teenage pregnancy in America. This video ^ is a debunking of the original, done passionately and intelligently.
