Coconuts are a way of life for millions of people in tropical climates around the world today. Known as the "tree of life", the wonderful fruit of the coconut palm is rich in specific fats that have incredible health benefits. Traditional tropical populations that consume a lot of coconut oil are seldom overweight, and traditionally have been free from the modern diseases that afflict most western cultures.
The tropical fruit, the coconut, is well known for its nutritional benefits. Its meat, juice and oil are popular all over the world due to its delicious taste and abundance of vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Coconut was used by primitive people to treat a number of ailments, and is still recognized today for its nutritious and healing properties. On many islands coconut is a staple in the diet and provides the majority of the food eaten. Nearly one third of the world's population depends on coconut to some degree for their food and their economy. Among these cultures the coconut has a long and respected history.
Coconut is highly nutritious and rich in protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. It is classified as a "functional food" because it provides many health benefits beyond its nutritional content. The meat of the coconut is very good in destroying intestinal parasites that we get from eating infected food. It contains lauric acid, which helps fight bacteria from intestinal parasites and wards off countless infections ranging from HIV to the common cold. Eating coconut helps fight gas, constipation, ulcers and other digestive and stomach ailments. Coconut also supports thyroid function and can prevent goiter (an enlarged thyroid) because it naturally contains iodine. Coconut has even been shown to protect the body from cancer and osteoporosis, dissolve kidney stones, reduce epileptic seizures, and reduce symptoms associated with pancreatic disorders.
One of the main health benefits of coconut meat is dietary fiber. Since fiber aids in the process of digestion, diets that incorporate some coconut can help with proper bowel movements as well as lower your risk of digestive issues, such as irritable bowel syndrome(IBS).
Dietary fiber doesn't only benefit your digestive tract; it may also help improve your cholesterol by lowering the level of low-density lipoprotein in your bloodstream. When LDL is kept with a healthy range, you lower your risk of high blood pressure, atherosclerosis (narrowing of the arteries) and cardiovascular disease as well as suffering a heart attack or stroke.
Coconut meat also contains folate. More commonly known as folic acid, this B vitamin is considered to have antioxidant qualities that can aid in the prevention of heart disease. Diets that are deficient in this vitamin increase the risk of heart disease, heart failure and stroke.
Coconut is also rich in protein. Because of its high calorie and fat content, coconut is a healthy food to consume for those who are trying to gain weight due to emaciation and for body builders who need high-protein foods to help build muscles. Coconut provides quick and lasting boosts of energy. It also benefits the outward appearance of the body in a number of ways, including softening the skin, reducing the appearances of wrinkles and fine lines, controlling dandruff and keeping the scalp and hair healthy.
A one cup serving of shredded coconut contains:
Coconut is an excellent source of manganese and contains 60 percent of the recommended daily intake of that mineral. It also contains 11 percent of the recommended intake for iron, 9 percent of phosphorus and 8percent of potassium. There are trace amounts of other nutrients in coconut, including zinc, calcium, and magnesium and Omega 3.

Quote:So anyone thats been to Bolton in Vermont might be able to tell me - whats the route just to the right of the path, round the corner (climbers right) of Dead Babies. Single pitch (easy anchors), climbs a gentle right facing dihedral with a ballroom sized ledge about 10 feet from the top. The crux is above the ledge - laybacks and smearing with a big flake to the right
Quote:As you can tell, Bolton is a pretty tough place to start leading, there isn't much easy to lead.

The list would change drastically if I had to name ten girls all at once or ten girls one at a time without knowing if I would have another, like how normal life and pregnancies go, haha.
Ten all at one time would be:

Heather Ava
Mallory Jeanne
Paige Elizabeth
Bridget Noelle
Wendy Pearl
Gabrielle Luna
Leah Rebecca

Definitely hard to come up with ten middle names with meaning.

Loud, in-your-gut audio combined with sensational lighting effects make this room (photo below) feel more like a downtown disco than a beachside haven. But much of this rockin' Blue Room's atmosphere can be attributed to what's located outside the space rather than what's inside. A 4-inch-thick piece of Plexiglas allows color-changing fiber-optic lighting installed throughout an outdoor hot tub area to spill into the 406-square-foot entertainment room. Bouncing off the walls of the tub, the evening lights cast an ocean-blue hue—or any other color desired. "The hot tub has become one of the main light fixtures of the room," says Jason Voorhees, president of custom electronics design and installation company Cantara in Costa Mesa, Calif.
From a 5-inch AMX touchpanel, the homeowner can activate the spa's lights, heater and jets, as well as a host of other equipment—all with the intent of making the room look and feel like a small-scale nightclub. To make it quick and easy for the homeowner to set the mood, Cantara created several SmartScenes, as the company terms them. Each scene arranges various strobes, colored LEDs and other specialty lighting to certain intensity levels and speeds. All the owner has to do is touch a button on the AMX touchpanel in the room "to initiate a crazy dance club effect where the lights pulse and a hidden haze machine emits a light mist—or [he can] engage a more laid-back effect where the lights are more subdued," says Voorhees.
No ordinary light fixtures or system would be able to create such elaborate effects, so Cantara worked with entertainment lighting designer Red Fish Illuminations of Columbus, Ohio, which used professional-grade DMX (Digital Multiplexing)-based lighting components (see sidebar) from Chauvet Lighting and Alcorn McBride.
A 65-inch, 1080p LED Samsung TV mounted to the front wall is available for karaoke, cable TV, video games and Blu-ray movies, with the components stored in a custom-made cabinet below the display.
Music from any housewide audio source can be routed to the room and heard through four wall-mounted QSC speakers and a custom-designed Triad subwoofer tucked into a bench at the back of the room. Clark Synthesis motion transducers share space with the subwoofer, producing sound that you can actually feel while seated there.
The "peace" de resistance? To reconnect the owner with natural surroundings like the ocean, Cantara installed a microphone outside on the pool deck, which on command from an AMX touchpanel picks up and transmits sounds of the crashing waves through the home's loudspeakers.
DMX Lighting System
In the world of theatrical lighting, DMX (Digital Multiplexing) is the communications standard for controlling specialty intelligent light fixtures, strobes, lasers and other types of lights like the ones used in the Blue Room. For this project, the custom electronics (CE) professionals at Cantara in Costa Mesa, Calif., worked with a professional entertainment lighting design firm Red Fish Illuminations in Columbus, Ohio, to design and install a DMX-based lighting system that includes approximately $10,000 worth of equipment. Using a DMX recorder from Alcorn McBride, the lighting designer was able to program various lighting "cues" that run for a set amount of time. For example, one cue pulses the lights with the music, while another creates geometric patterns. "The cues play out randomly," says Red Fish Illuminations designer Doug Northeim, "so the lighting effects never look the same twice." Cantara integrated the Alcorn McBride recorder into the home's AMX automation system, which allows the homeowner to engage any of 10 preset lighting scenes from any AMX touchpanel in the house, including the 5-inch unit mounted to the wall of the Blue Room.

As Brendan Gleeson, Michael Fassbender and Cillian Murphy demonstrate, our Irish culture is shaking it up in Tinseltown
It seems as if Hollywood wants a piece of Irishness. There are rumours milling about that Michael Fassbender is working on a adaptation film of Cú Chulainn, the mythical Ulster hero.
And another that actor Brendan Gleeson is directing an adaptation of At Swim-Two-Birds, the novel by Irish satirist Flann O'Brien…
Gleeson's cast includes Colin Farrell and Cillian Murphy.
Irishness, though, is a complex thing, and often tied to language.
"The best thing to do would be to ban it," said Gleeson in a recent interview. He was talking about speaking Gaeilge (Irish) – joking, of course. Gleeson himself is fluent, as is Cillian Murphy. "We're contrary," explained Gleeson. "If we banned it everyone will want to speak it!"
Or try to learn to speak it, at the very least?
Besides Gaeilge, there are two other tongues that are recognised as a part of the island's make-up: Ullans and Cant. Cant refers to the dialects spoken by Irish Travellers, memorably rendered by Brad Pitt in Guy Ritchie's film Snatch.
Ullans is the variant of Scots that was brought to Ulster in the 17th century. There are no courses in it as yet, although the Ullans Speakers Association in Ballymoney in Antrim has been working with schools to bring Ullans to a new generation.
It takes hard work to rescue a suppressed language (as Gaeilge/Irish was in the 19th century), but it is now well established and attracting students from all over the world.
An Droichead in Belfast offers once-weekly conversation classes, along with language classes for all levels, but if it's full immersion you want, go to the Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking areas) scattered around the island.
Feicim, meanwhile, holds courses on Inis Oírr, the smallest Aran Island (which incidentally features in the opening credits of comedy series Father Ted). There are weekend and five-day courses for beginners to intermediate speakers and even singles weekends.
"It was one of the most enjoyable holidays I've ever had," writes Margaret Hogan about her course at Feicim. "Everything was so beautiful and relaxed. We walked, talked, swam, laughed, fished, danced – all while improving our Irish."
A different accent is spoken in Donegal, which is home to Oideas Gael in Glencolmcille. Since 1984, it has attracted hundreds of people to its language lessons and activities that include painting, music and dancing.
"I met Americans, Swiss, Australians and even an Israeli soldier learning the cupla focal [few words]," says Sarah Ryder, assistant commissioning editor at RTÉ, who brushed up her skills in the island's north west. "The setting is amazing and it's the best fun. Like being on a school trip, but with no curfew!"
New Yorker Séamas Ó Feinneadh found himself in at the deep end at Oideas Gael, too. "My teacher spoke a mile a minute, but she and the rest of the class were sympathetic, and convinced me – the only Poncán (Yank) – to remain in the class. It was such a thrill being among Irish speakers that I really didn't care what class I was in."
Language might be tied to identity, but it's also about a different mindset. When you learn an old language, you learn another way to think – and perhaps reclaim some traditional values.
Says Brendan Gleeson of speaking Irish: "It's an opportunity to stay in contact with 2,000 years of craic [fun] and wisdom – and we could do with that!"

Post subject: Drone bombardment
I am moderating a mini-campaign between Fed and Kzinti forces. It appears that the Kzintis will have a DN, a NCC, 3 DEs, and at least 1 CM to attack the Fed battle station. The Feds will have a DN, a CC, 2 NCLs, a Tug, a mobile base, and perhaps another ship to defend the battle station.
The Kzintis should be able to fire somewhere around 50-60 drones at the Fed battle station. Is there any possible way for the Feds to avoid getting their station blown to pieces?

Aggressively go after the drones and the Kzinti ships. If the Feds can get the Kzintis to target their ships instead of the battlestation or at least split their fire, they'll win. Either way, the Feds need to aggressively knock down the drones using every weapon the ships have (photons, suicide shuttles, drones, and phasers). After the Kzintis start reloading, the balance of firepower will be dramatically in the Feds favor
Once the Feds start closing, they need to use their out of arc weapons on the drones that get past them. This will free up the in arc weapons to start taking down the Kzintis.
Of course, the whole time this is going on, the BATS needs to blast the Kzinti's with it's Ph-4s.
Overall, I think the Kzinti's don't have the firepower to win against an aggressive Fed. The feds have a DN, CC and 2 light cruisers vs a DN, NCC, 3 destroyers and a medium cruiser. The DN and CC's are equally matched and the 2 NCLs & a Tug vs 1 CM and 3 Destroyers is fairly equal as well. Throw in a mobile base and a BATS and the Kzinti's look pretty outgunned.
With that in mind, an aggressive Fed can effectively gut the Kzintis without a lot of support from the base. If the kzintis manage to survive, the mobile engagement, they'll be too damaged to take on the BATS and mobile base.

....So, the Fed is deploying a MB on the same map as a BATS? And they have a LTT in the fleet? Or is there some kind of approach battle that the Kzinti have to perform to get close to the BATS?
I'm wise enough to know that I don't know half as much as I think I know, you know?

I hope the Kzinti player likes a challenge - this fight looks tricky for him to me. That said, it's possible.
My advice to the Federation would be to get - and keep - your fleet between his drones (and ships!) and the BATS. But don't get suckered into an even ship-to-ship fight where his ships are at extreme range from your biggest guns on the BATS.
You should actually have more phaser-Is in your fleet than he has drone racks, so he will need to build a wave which maxes out against his control limit over a couple of turns. Don't be afraid of leaving some drones for the BATS to shoot, it has plenty of point defence all its own.
When you have a choice prioritise shooting those drones which can't just be replaced by an immediate launch on the impulse/turn you kill them, to ensure you reduce the overall number on the map, and the total you have to deal with on any given turn; the converse probably applies to your Tractor beams - force him to drop control if he wants a replacement drone on the map quickly.
If your opponent can force you to deal with two or more whole turns' worth of launch in a single game turn, that might well be enough to swing things in his favour.
Hope this is some help, and not too obvious.

Everybody, thanks for the advice.
The way that the MB ended up in the same sector with a BTTS was that the Tug was hauling it around. We allowed that in our campaign.
I allowed the Feds to do a 75% trade-in on the Tug and MB for a CA, so that has changed. It doesn't look as if the big attack will occur just yet. The Kzinti pulled back, ostensibly to allow other ships to catch up and join the main fleet. The Feds moved out in two task forces to probe the Kzintis.
There may be a battle this week between a Fed force of a heavy dreadnought and heavy cruiser and a Kzinti force of a dreadnought, NCC, and DE. The Feds know they are outnumbered and are low on points, but might just take on the Kzintis because they know the Kzintis' best commander won't be there for the battle.

Minor point, but Suicide Shuttles cannot target drones.
I happened to discover that immediately after a game I watched in which a player used one in a "kitchen sink" approach to stopping an incoming drone wave.

I totally missed that! I had to look it up. I usually play the Kzintis and don't make much use of suicide shuttles. Guess I learned something today.

Julien MacDonald may soon be designing for Kate Middleton, following in the footsteps of Erdem and McQueen.
MacDonald, a fan of plunging necklines and sheer lace fabrics, seems an unusual choice for the conservative princess, but he told the Sunday Mirror that he thinks her taste is becoming increasingly risque.
He said: "I might be doing her very soon actually. You keep an eye out. I think she's very elegant. She wears the high street as well as designer. That's what makes her appealing to young girls and the public."
"The more she goes out the more she seems able to experiment with fashion. She has gone slowly – but I think it's a brilliant move. She's wearing colours prints and different British designers. She's going to transform as the years go by. If she went out wearing something silly then the entire world would talk about it – so she's being careful."
MacDonald has previously dressed Cheryl Cole, Tamara Ecclestone and Kelly Rowland. K Mid, a lover of court shoes and coat dresses, has a very different style.
So here's the conundrum – will MacDonald be toning down his saucy style for the Duchess or will we soon be spying the 30-year-old in acid green gowns, flirty skirts and sheer mini dresses?
We thought we'd take her for a test run and have imagined how Midders would look if she stepped out in the more risqué of MacDonald's pieces.

Today we have access to what seems like an unlimited supply of entertainment. Our favorite music, movies, sporting events, and television shows are only a click away. The technology to stream content into the home and store it on home servers has changed the way we consume media. CDs and Blu-ray discs are becoming things of the past, as we flock to the vast Internet cloud for our content. It's quick and convenient, and it's now easy to set up a system. Only the most advanced systems require hiring a custom electronics (CE) professional, as there are now options available that even the most inexperienced computer user can set up.
Let's tackle media streamers first. A media streamer is a device that can be connected to the Internet to access content available from services like Netflix, Spotify and Amazon Prime. You can typically find television shows, movies, music and even books from online content providers. The content isn't free, of course. You'll need to pay a monthly fee and buy some type of media streamer to gain access to it. The great news is that you may already own a streamer and not even know it, because there are so many different devices that have streaming capabilities built-in. If you own an Android or Apple iPhone, for example, you already own a media device. Odds are, if you own a Blu-ray player or a smart television that is less than a year old, you own one, too. Just about every current Blu-ray player available at your local electronics store has the ability to stream Internet content.
Standalone streaming devices are widely available as well, from companies including Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, LG, Motorola, Apple, Boxee and Roku. Prices range from$50 for a basic streamer to a few thousand dollars for a smart television. Once you own a media streamer, it is essential that you set up an account with the Internet service you want to access. This is as easy as purchasing something from your favorite web page. Just load your personal information and credit card info, and you are ready to go. Cloud computing has finally come of age, and this has given companies the ability to offer consumers a huge selection of media content. For example, if you want access to music from thousands of artists, you should check out Spotify or Pandora. If movies and television shows are more up your alley, then look into Netflix or Amazon Prime.
As media streamers become more commonplace, some homeowners will take the next step by installing a home media server. Media servers are different than streamers in the sense that the content they provide is usually contained in your own household. The benefit of a media server is that it offers unparalleled control of your media content. Media streamers rely on the Internet to work, because the media content they provide is stored on company servers, more commonly referred to as the cloud. Consequently, if the Internet stops working you have no way to access your favorite music or movies. Amedia server, on the other hand, isn't affected by a slow or finicky Internet connection. This is the reason media servers, in general, offer a higher-quality experience than most media streamers. Music and movies tend to be stored in their original format and aren't compressed. This means your music will sound just as good as it did on the original CD, and movies will be exact replicas of the original Blu-ray discs. While streaming services like Netflix offer high-definition content, the visual quality of its movies can't compare to the quality of Blu-ray discs. This is primarily because the Internet infrastructure currently available in the United States cannot support the bandwidth needed to stream a movie at Blu-ray quality. The downside to a server? You are limited to the media you already own. If you want to listen to or watch something new, you'll need to buy the disc first.
As with streamers, there is a large selection of media servers available today. Some notable manufacturers are Kaleidescape, Autonomic, Sonos, NuVo and Linksys. What makes up a media server? The core of a media server is a control system and storage device that delivers media content to devices synced with the server. These types of systems can range from a simple receiver, router and hard-drive setup to a sophisticated arrangement including a server that's been integrated into a complete home automation system and tailored to distribute media to as many rooms as you choose.
Check out the slideshow for a roundup of great streamers and servers.

No 1: Aime-moi
No 2: Le vent
No 3: Morte
Whilst it is scarcely ever played these days, 'Le vent' was for a long time quite a popular work—so much so that Sorabji wrote that it was 'too familiar one is tempted to say, for most people think of Alkan, indeed only know him, as the composer of "Le Vent", as they know only the Sibelius of the Valse Triste or Finlandia'. For Liszt's taste, 'Le vent' 'is the most Romantic of the three. By means of an uninterrupted explosion of chromatic semiquavers, the composer has managed wonderfully to bring to life the effects of those sustained winds which blow for days on end, making the forest heather and grasses moan monotonously. One can almost hear the rain trickling down the oak trees' trunks, and, in great reverence, one can listen to the tune which floats above all these subdued murmurings, like the song of the lover or the poet as he looks upon Nature's sorrow yet without feeling that sadness in himself because he holds in his heart the gentle glow of a memory or a hope'. Larry Sitsky adds: 'A "normal" Romantic would seize the opportunity for whipping up a veritable gale; in Alkan's piece, the rise and fall of the wind is monotonously regular, the melody heard through it pathetic rather than heroic'. (Alkan was to come back to this meteorological theme in the first of the twelve Etudes dans tous les tons mineurs Op 39, entitled 'Comme le vent'—a work which in Sorabji's opinion was far less successful.) The score is pretty striking in itself: the page is dominated by a huge pile-up of notes—repetitive scales of demisemiquavers—and the visual impact is almost as striking as the impact the music makes as sound. We have the same sort of effect in some of Chopin's Etudes. The middle section is undoubtedly the most lyrical and the most beautiful; the combination of tremolos and chromatic scales flashing in the left hand evokes Chasse-neige, the last of Liszt's Etudes d'exécution transcendante, without giving us a clue as to who influenced whom.
'Morte', in E flat minor, is the most premonitory of the three works. Sorabji believes that this is the 'most remarkable piece of the collection … "Morte" is a moving and tragic elegy, a funereal song, in which the composer introduces the Dies irae, that marvellous theme which has for so long haunted and fascinated so many of the great masters of music. The work is bursting with extraordinary daring—technical, pianistic and harmonic—and its close is as weirdly uncanny as it is audacious and original'. In contrast to Sorabji's words, it is this third piece that finds Liszt at his most scathing: 'In the ensemble of this piece, which contains some truly lovely things, it seemed to us that M Alkan had too little concern for detail. The transition passages, thrown like bridges between one idea and another […] have been somewhat neglected. It is evident that the composer views them as being of mediocre importance. And that is a mistake. One should never assume that certain sections will benefit through a neglect of others'.
On listening to the work, however, this criticism seems somewhat ill-fitting. The music begins with bare fifths in the piano's lower register, and then the theme of Dies irae comes soaring over the top, until a savage torrent of chords adds a certain violence to the desolation. There follows a magnificent lament, leading into a florid cadence, and then on to a passage in which a repetitive B flat uncannily heralds 'Le Gibet' from Gaspard de la nuit by Ravel—who was familiar with Alkan's music. The next section, which Liszt labelled 'Presto finale', is a violent expression of revolt and exasperation which then returns to the mood of despair with which the piece began. 'Morte' certainly reminds one of music by Berlioz, Mussorgsky and Ravel – but it equally well heralds the best of Alkan's compositions still to come: 'Prométhée enchaîné' from the Grande Sonate, Op 33, La Chanson de la folle au bord de la mer from the Preludes, Op 31, Le Tambour bat aux champs, Op 51 No 2, for example.
The absence of any indication of performance markings in the score could be regarded as a sort of homage to the person to whom it was dedicated. It does not help the task of the interpreter. In general, this collection represents a gauntlet thrown down to all pianists. Raymond Lewenthal rightly insisted on the need to play Alkan's music strictly a tempo at the designated speeds and with total conviction, since this is not music which comes to life simply by reading it.

I have studied all of Fender's Stratocaster's.
I chose the Classic Player 50's Strat, as a matter of fact I bought 2 in Shoreline Gold.
I liked the Vintage Oval Shaped Tuners, the decal, glossed neck, beautiful paint job, 2 point floating tremolo. It is a blend of old with the new.
I wanted to make a comment about some of the other reviews.
The Tuners are nice and tight, but are not the locking type.
It does not have a laquer finish.
The pickup selector is the standard 5 position switch.
Somebody made a comment about position 4 is neck and bridge pickups together.
As far as I know, the only Strat capable on neck and bridge and all 3 pickups together is the Deluxe Players Strat, another great value packed guitar. The Deluxe at $650 and Classic at $800 are Fenders most bang for the buck Strats. Also the Squier CV 50's Strats are great little guitars and lots of fun to play.

WOW! I tested this babe in a store in Italy last year and haven't been playing another guitar ever since. Got my eyes on the Shoreline Gold and, well, guess it was love at first sight! After a couple of minutes of playing, I knew I wasn't gonna leave the store without it. The neck feels great in my hands, the playability is great and the sound is just awesome! This is probably the ONE guitar I'll ever need! :)
Definitely recommended!!!!!

I purchased a sunburst model of this guitar back in 2007 because it looked like an anniversary model Strat that I own and I wanted a cheaper model as an alternative for gig use. This soon became my main "go to" guitar.
The finish on it is faultless and the construction is comparable to guitars that demand a much higher price tag.
The custom wiring adds another dimension with an almost Tele type of sound with the pickup switch in position 4 which switches neck and bridge pickups instead of neck and centre pickups like other strats.
The playability and action is great and the sound in all switch positions excellent.
My only dislike was the gig bag and I ordered a Fender hard shell case at the time that I bought the guitar. That's just a personal thing as I've never been a fan of gig bags.
I can highly recommend this to anybody that has an opportunity to buy one of these models.

I own 4 strats. This one was raffled off at a fund raiser and I lost. My wife conspired with a classmate of mine to pick it up and present it to me for an anniversary present. It was worked over by the man who donated it for the cause. He put in a duncan vintage in the neck, 60s fender pickup in the middle, and texas special in the bridge. I take this one with me when I try out USA strats people have for sale used. I play mine and find it hard to justify getting a different one. This one is my favorite and all 4 are made in mexico models. Mine is a 2007 model. Surf green and v shaped neck. That neck feels great in my hands.
I prefer this over all the guitars I have had over the years. Stratocasters just feel so comfortable on a strap and fit my body well, even though it seems to keep growing in the middle area.
SwiftPickins owns this item
This was my first Stratocaster. After months of testing different models, I found this was easily the best sounding and feeling I played. I originally planned on paying far more, but was quite pleased to find my ideal guitar at a very reasonable price point. The clean tones blow everyone away, and perfectly compliments my R&B and blues playing style. Within moments this guitar became my main instrument, rendering my Gibson a glorified paperweight. The soft V neck is wonderful for rhythm/chord work, and had perfect tuning stability straight out of the box. Easily one of the best investments I've made, and I plan on keeping this guitar for good.
My only complaint would be the lack of finish options. The obligatory sunburst and black made me unsure about purchasing the guitar many times, hoping for more of the 'character' of the finishes in the classic series 50's stratocaster. I ended up going for Shoreline Gold, which I have really come to love. With a red tortoise pick guard it's a very classy, refined and (on the right occasion) funky look. I can see, however, that this one 'unique' finish would not appeal to everyone.

My mother suffers from Reynaud's disease, and gets 100% relief by taking this Cayenne product. She suffered many years of white, bloodless fingers, nothing could warm them. I am a diabetic. I use this product to improve my circulation. Without it my feet, like many diabetics, would have a lifeless, gray look to them. I take quite a lot of cayenne, four capsules three times a day, with meals. My feet have a lovely pink color, which I attribute to the widening effect of the veins and capillaries that cayenne causes.

I read an article on a study done in Korea on capsaicin for fat loss & decided to try it. Having a bunch of ancient injuries & fibromyalgia, it's hard for me to do a lot of things in reasonable comfort any more. Figuring that the potency guarantee was accurate, I have been taking divided doses of capsaicin at the required level to lose fat - & I have! Whee! The fat is melting away - 22 lbs in just under 3 months - & I have the added benefit of decreased whole-body inflammation & pain & stiffness. How great is that!

I started taking these because of poor circulation. The first pill I took gave me a little heartburn, but after that first one I got used to it and learned to take them with food. These are like little internal heaters and from someone that always had cold hands and feet they are wonderful. I feel increased energy as well. They worked great for me.

Rolls-Royce mulling V16 roadster, SUV
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on Feb 22nd, 2013 at 5:45PM
Rolls-Royce may be working on a new, mega-powerful roadster for 2017. CAR reports the convertible would conceivably boast a V16 engine. Of course, the report gets a little muddled here, with CAR saying the engine would be very similar to that of the one that powers the Bugatti Veyron – the French machine makes use of a W16 mill. Even so, the article says the Rolls-Royce version could put down around 700 horsepower. Design wise, we're told the creation will feature a suitably long nose with the passenger compartment pushed far to the rear. Of course, 2017 is a long way off, and the... Read More

Endometriosis facts
What is endometriosis?
Endometriosis is the abnormal growth of cells (endometrial cells) similar to those that form the inside or lining the tissue of the uterus, but in a location outside of the uterus. Endometrial cells are cells that are shed each month during menstruation. The cells of endometriosis attach themselves to tissue outside the uterus and are called endometriosis implants. These implants are most commonly found on the ovaries, the Fallopian tubes, outer surfaces of the uterus or intestines, and on the surface lining of the pelvic cavity. They can also be found in the vagina, cervix, and bladder, although less commonly than other locations in the pelvis. Rarely, endometriosis implants can occur outside the pelvis, on the liver, in old surgery scars, and even in or around the lung or brain. Endometrial implants, while they can cause problems, are benign (not cancerous).
Who is affected by endometriosis?
Endometriosis affects women in their reproductive years. The exact prevalence of endometriosis is not known, since many women may have the condition and have no symptoms. Endometriosis is estimated to affect over one million women (estimates range from 3% to 18% of women) in the United States. It is one of the leading causes of pelvic pain and reasons for laparoscopic surgery and hysterectomy in this country. Estimates suggest that between 20% to 50% of women being treated for infertility have endometriosis, and up to 80% of women with chronic pelvic pain may be affected.
While most cases of endometriosis are diagnosed in women aged around 25 to 35 years, endometriosis has been reported in girls as young as 11 years of age. Endometriosis is rare in postmenopausal women. Endometriosis is more commonly found in white women as compared with African American and Asian women. Studies further suggest that endometriosis is most common in taller, thin women with a low body mass index (BMI). Delaying pregnancy until an older age is also believed to increase the risk of developing endometriosis. It also is likely that there are genetic factors that predispose a woman to developing endometriosis, since having a first-degree relative with the condition increases the chance that a woman will develop the condition.

it tastes & smells like oil that went through an old dirty machine... I wouldnt go for this, go for extra virgin, organic, cold pressed coconut oil, its totally worth the little extra money :)

I buy another brand of extra virgin coconut oil to use for supplement and cooking purposes, and I got hooked on the great cooking properties of coconut oil. However, the extra virgin has a strong coconut taste that you do not always want in your food. This oil is also fantastic for cooking and as a butter substitute, for half the price and without the coconut taste. I will continue to buy both, I think each has their purpose.
Smells awful!

Bought this as a moisturiser because it was cheaper than the extra virgin, and what a disappointment! Not sure if I got a bad batch but I bought 3 jars of the stuff and it smells and tastes like burnt plastic. It's not the jar but the oil itself. As I live in the UK it would cost too much to send them back. I begrudge even giving it one star.

I decided to order this coconut oil since it appeared to be the frugal pick as well as a favorite on here. When it arrived to my house, I opened it, ready to use it for a moisturizer when I caught the stench of burning plastic, all through the coconut oil! When I informed iherb about this, they just said all I can do is send it back but it's not worth it since I only paid $4.50! Never again.
