November is here, and the early signing period is around the corner. Each year, student athletes scramble to find a college to sign with, while coaches look to lock down recruits. Most families begin to feel nervous around this time, and some even go as far as "freaking out". The general feeling is there will be no roster spots available if student athletes do not sign during the early signing period. Don't worry - there is life after November.
At SFA, we know that only a small percentage of the top players actually sign in November. Early signing can provide peace-of-mind, but waiting to commit until after the early signing period can open up a world of opportunities that were not available earlier. A number of college coaches are recruiting the same top players, and once they don't sign them, they continue to move down their recruiting lists. Opportunities open up for players at all levels. Players who sign early with their third or fourth choice could potentially miss out on a chance to play for their first or second choice. Settling on a school in order to be done by the early signing period often leads to unhappy college athletes - and ultimately leads to transferring.
Three- and four-star recruits are not the only ones that sign after the early period - some of our blue chip clients are also waiting until spring to sign. There are several reasons for this. A number of coaches that have more than one spot for a recruiting class opt to keep one of their spots open until the spring. They understand the benefit of waiting to see how "things pan out," and they also know that some of the top talent will hold out. Some of the players that have already committed will choose not to play as many tournaments since they have accomplished their goal of committing to a college. That gives unsigned players an opportunity to enter more tournaments and to showcase their skills to coaches.
If you don't sign in November, do not panic. Continue your recruiting process as you have - and make sure to maintain your line of communication with the coaches at the schools that you're interested in. There's no need to rush. As the old saying goes, "good things come to those who wait". You never know what doors may open up for you after the November signing period.

Fall Signing Week '14: How Young is Too Young to Start Recruiting?
When it comes to college tennis recruiting, one of the biggest fears
parents have is starting the process too late. They are afraid there
will be no more room on the teams and all the scholarships will be
gone by the time their child is recognized. Everyone wants to get
their child in front of coaches before it's too late, but how young is
too young to do this?

TV Squad Soap Report: Passions played out
I never cared for Passions. It turned me off in the first season, 1999, but it wasn't because of the outre elements. I was actually interested in the gothic stuff because I'd grown up enjoying Dark Shadows with Barnabus and Quentin and Angelique and all those horror classic reinterpretations on a next-to-nothing budget -- furniture provided by Stern's Department Store, as I recall -- including werewolves, Frankenstein's monster and The Innocents, and parallel universes. Dark Shadows remains a vivid, happy memory.
Short-Lived Shows: Coronet Blue - VIDEO
This is a post about a TV show I've never even seen.
Coronet Blue was a short-lived TV show that ran on CBS in 1967. It was actually filmed in 1965 and CBS canceled it, deciding to burn off the episodes during the summer. The show actually did better than expected, but by that time the people involved in the show had moved on to other things. The show's star, Frank Converse, went on to N.Y.P.D. (hey, if you mix that show title with this one you get...NYPD Blue!).
Passions to live ... on DirecTV?
Fans of the NBC soap Passions who felt sad and neglected when the network announced that the show was ending after eight years take note: the show is going to live on!
The show is going to return this fall in a new home: DirecTV. NBC and the satellite system are about to finalize a deal that will keep the quirky soap opera (which includes, I believe, a character who is a witch, and used to have a character that was a doll brought to life) on the air for four days a week. They'll have to cut the budget, too, but at least the show will live on in some form.
This is the another move in DirecTV's plan to increase the amount of original programming they have.
Goodbye Passions
I have this suspicion that, except for a couple of the mega-successful shows, the soap opera is on its way out.
NBC has canceled the bizarre soap opera Passions after 8 years. This is the show that included witches (Tabitha, played by Juliet Mills) and puppets that came to life. I know, I know, you're thinking, "why didn't someone tell me there was a soap like this on, I would have watched it!" It sounds like something that I could get into for a laugh or two, though I don't know if I could have gotten into it for the long haul, unless they really went over the top all the time and didn't include serious storylines too.
If you're wondering, the show is being canceled to make room for more of The Today Show, which is expanding to 9 hours in a few weeks.

Faith Community Nursing
Future of Nursing Initiative
Federal legislation that would deny overtime pay to several categories of American workers, including nurses, could be implemented soon. Despite a bipartisan effort and testimony by a member of the Pennsylvania State Nurses Association (PSNA) on behalf of nurses across the country, efforts to protect nurses and certain other workers from the legislation have failed.
The new regulation from the Department of Labor changes the ground rules for determining which employees can earn premium pay for working more than 40 hours in 1 week. An amendment to the bill, which would have protected nurses, failed in part because the new regulation has strong backing from the Bush Administration.
As we went to press, the legislation had passed both houses of Congress and was awaiting President Bush's signature. For updates, check the PSNA Web site at http://www.psna.org.

China businessman assures Nicaragua canal success
BEIJING — The Chinese businessman hired to plan and perhaps build a Nicaraguan rival to the Panama Canal said the ambitious project is backed by experienced consultants and is not a joke, turning away skepticism that he can deliver the $40 billion shipping channel.
"We don't want it to become an international joke, and we don't want it to turn into an example of Chinese investment failures," Wang Jing, chairman and owner of Hong Kong-based HKND Group, told a news conference Tuesday in Beijing.

Technology churns Gulf Coast waters as Louisiana fishermen use social networking to sell their catch
By John DeSantis
Tiny shrimp on the small aluminum skiff's deck glimmered in the Louisiana sun as Mitzi Bourg aimed her iPhone 4 at the pile and snapped a photo.
Within minutes the image appeared on her Facebook page.
Hours after she returned with her family the shrimp were gone, sold to a man who saw the post and acted quickly.
At $1.25 per pound, the price was a good 20 cents higher than what a dock might have paid. For a short trip like that one, the difference equaled about $50. But for the trips Bourg's dad takes with his double-rigged trawler, using the same social networking tools can mean a difference of hundreds, sometimes even a thousand dollars.
Fishermen like Bourg are acting independently or as participants in programs that link consumers, fishermen and docks through social networking tools. The practice is becoming more common on Louisiana's coast. Even when direct marketing is not the best bet — when processors are paying top dollar for seafood — social network strategies offer fishermen a new array of options to help them land the best deal at the docks.

"Three hours was the wrong running time for this movie," began my negative "review" 18 years ago, just a few months after I launched my site. "It should have run either 90 minutes, or seven hours." That I somehow failed to appreciate the rampant awesomeness on display here boggles the mind; for all his idiocy, though, younger me did have a point, if not yet an available countermodel. Today, Heat looks like a hugely condensed season of first-rate television, with the sprawling narrative and multi-character arcs we now associate with that medium. (See also: Contagion.) Bump it up to 10 or 12 hours on HBO and the material that currently feels thin—Kilmer and Judd's rocky marriage, Portman's depression, Fichtner's…
"What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone…Cause there is a dead man on the other end of this fuckin' line."
I heard that quote when I watched Cashback the other night. "I love that fookin film! You should see it on my plasma! Boom boom ratta tatta blam blam!" a character exclaimed. And this gave me the craziest idea… I went out and picked up Heat on Blu-Ray today and decided to watch it for the first time since owning a Blu-Ray player. I had previously only seen it on VHS and DVD…
I poured myself a drink, opened up the window to feel the nice spring air, cranked up my tv, and let the sounds of…
A guy told me one time, "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."
- Neil McCauley
De Niro sticks to the rules, the rules of the game. Both of these men are pedantic - obsessive over their work - so much that their lives are dictated by these self-implemented caveats. Of course they know that their respective lines of business are ones in which you need discipline, it can be the difference between life and death after all. But it's easy to recognise how difficult it is to implement said rules, especially when the time comes; will he hold true…
Film #57 of Project 90
"Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."
Michael Mann is at his most exciting form here, with Heat he once again tells the story of lonely men who can't live a regular life, men who are doomed to live a painful life where it is impossible to achieve peace and delight, his heroes aren't made to enjoy life, they should fight for their salvation till the end and that salvation often costs them dearly. What makes Heat so unique is that here we have two men who are supposed to fight each other and beat…
Arguably Michael Mann's best film. An all action crime thriller with some of the best shoot-out's in recent cinema history,this bristles with an edgy script and stylised violence the Michael Mann way.
Robert De Niro is the career criminal and expert professional thief who leads a crack team of bank and armoured car robbers. On his trail is obsessive cop Pacino who appreciates the skill and tenacity of De Niro's crew. A grudging admiration develops as the criminals and the LAPD attempt to outsmart each other as a cat and mouse game of deception develops.
Tom Sizemore, a brilliant Val Kilmer and Danny Trejo round out De Niro's team. From the opening robbery to the almost operatic bank heist this…
After watching Public Enemies earlier, I decided to revisit Michael Mann's filmography. And what better place to start than Heat? As with Public Enemies, I was reminded of just how great it actually is. It's a masterpiece, that doesn't receive enough credit. The whole film just screams quality: from the fantastic performances, to the superb direction and editing, to the outstanding soundtrack and sound design. It's a gripping thrill ride, that carries Mann's signatures, creating a truly great heist film.
Two of the most famous actors of all time, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, give fantastic performances. While they aren't quite Godfather II quality, they're great all around. Val Kilmer also does well in his supporting role. The whole…

tells its story well
Characters are all very real. Longer than it needs to be. Well done and entertaining.
To think when i first saw this film i was underwhelmed... now it just gets better and better with repeated viewings, and now i can safely say, not only does it deserve all the love and attention it gets, but i consider it one of the finest achievements in cinematic history, and one of my very favorite films. Not only does it get Al Pacino and Robert De Niro together sharing screen time for the FIRST time, but even if it starred two completely different actors, it'd still work very well because of Michael Manns superb writing and direction when it comes to characters. The finished product is without a doubt a masterpiece, and will be appreciated for many years to come.
I watch this film almost yearly and every time I still hope Neal Macauley just drives out of that tunnel with his girlfriend. Yeah, that's good filmmaking.
A great plot with amazing and believable action sequences, superb acting and surprising twists from beginning to end. Robert De Niro gives a stellar performance as a thief who sticks to the rules as he and his gang of organized criminals (including Val Kilmer) take on score after score. But as Al Pacino's LAPD Ltn gets closer and closer to taking them down they must decide whether to go their separate ways or band together for one last heist. Since there is hardly a flaw in this film I can only give it the top marks as it is a truly classic crime flick.
The story of two men on opposite sides of the law who's methods are exactly alike, one a master thief, the other an obsessive cop. Their worlds collide after an armored car heist goes wrong, triggering a psychological battle of wits. Top notch epic crime film expertly directed by Michael Mann with a great ensemble cast.
It took me too long to see this movie. I know that. Either way, this is an amazing film. DeNiro and Pacino at their best. Two men obsessed with what they do for a living, two men face off in the streets of LA. "Heat" shows a dark side to the difficulties of choosing between the ones we love and what we do for a living. I love how Director Michael Mann gives every character a chance at showing that they are not just good or bad people, but that there is a driving force behind all their motives. The violence is also terrifying. LA at night never looked so real.
"Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."
In Michael Mann's epic crime drama "Heat," the thin blue line grows thinner by the minute. The centerpiece of Mann's film isn't a showdown at high noon, but a conversation over a cup of coffee featuring two expert tradesmen on opposite sides of the law who satisfy identical impulses through opposing means.
Set in contemporary Los Angeles, "Heat" stars Robert De Niro as Neil McCauley, a prolific, cold-as-ice career criminal. Al Pacino is Vincent Hanna, a homicide/robbery detective with the LAPD who recognizes the work of professional criminals and spends the film's three-hour…
a true masterpiece.

PARIS--AXA SA (CS.FR), Europe's second-largest insurer by market value, said Thursday that it would implement additional cost-cutting measures as full-year net profit fell.
The insurer, which initially said it would to cut costs by 1.5 billion euros ($1.99 billion) between 2011 and 2015, now plans to reduce costs by an additional EUR200 million.
Net profit fell 4% to EUR4.15 billion from EUR4.19 billion last year, undershooting analyst forecasts of EUR4.60 billion.
Full-year revenue rose 5% to EUR90.13 billion, as an increase in property-and-casualty and life and savings premiums offset asset management revenue.
Revenue from life and savings rose 3% to EUR55 billion and revenue from property and casualty increased 3% to EUR28.3 billion, while asset management revenue fell 3% to EUR3.43 billion.
The insurer increased full-year dividend to EUR0.72 a share from EUR0.69 a year earlier.
Life & savings annual premium equivalent, or APE, was up 3% at EUR6.2 billion. APE measures new business growth for life insurance by combining the value of payments on new regular premium policies, and 10% of the value of payments made on one-time, single-premium products.
The French insurer said its solvency ratio was 233% at the end of December, up from 220% at September-end. The solvency ratio is a measure of an insurance company's financial strength.
As a result of the financial crisis, banks and insurers alike face tougher regulation, albeit insurers have fared substantially better through the crisis.

Dearth of procurement agencies and low market price are sore points
KALPETTA: Paddy farmers in Wayanad district are in distress, thanks to dearth of government agencies for procurement, untimely rain, low market price and shortage of labourers.
The spot price of the Matta variety was Rs.925 a quintal at the Meenangadi market on Wednesday against Rs.1,060 a few days back. For the white variety it was Rs.875 a quintal.
The minimum support price for paddy was fixed at Rs.1, 200 a quintal by the State government. But farmers in the region lament that what they get is a meagre Rs.900 a quintal.
"It is sad that we are forced to sell our produce at such a low cost," says Kesavan Keezhanikkal, a farmer in Panamaram. "Traders push down the price of paddy during the Nancha harvest (winter crop) by citing excessive moisture content," he says.
The demand for paddy cultivated in the district is very low in the rice mills in Kalady and Palakkad owing to the cultivation of mixed rice varieties. Ibrahim, a paddy trader at Meenangadi says. Further, an increased moisture content owing to the rain is the last straw, he adds.
The farmers point out that though the government is trying to implement various schemes for increasing paddy production, there is no procurement agency in the district.
Owing to unexpected rain during the sowing season, nearly 200 hectares of paddy nursery was destroyed. As a result, most of the farmers began transplantation of paddy a month late. And now low prices stare them in the face.
To add to their woes, there was a spurt in pest attacks and diseases owing to the climatic change. According to Agriculture Department data, 83 hectares of paddy, especially at Mananthavady, Edavaka and Thirunelly panchayats, faced pest attacks.
If the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme is extended to paddy fields, it will be a great boon to the farmers, says Jose Ilanjimattom, a farmer at Payyampally.
In many parts of the district, the Nanja harvest has not been completed so far owing to the unexpected rain. "If the rain continues, we cannot dry the hay, a main fodder for the cattle," says Jinachandra Gowder at Panamaram.
"I have spent Rs.19, 000 for paddy cultivation on one acre this Nanja season. But I could get only 20 quintals of paddy after harvest," says K.P. Kuriakose a small-time farmer at Karachal.
According to the data, paddy has been cultivated in 11,327 hectares for the Nanja crop this year and the expected production is 36,246 tonnes.

...and yet the municipal and regional elections (with more limited powers than Spanish regions) in the UK were taken (legitimately, it seems) by most as a verdict on Blair and his foreign policy with respect to Iraq. Where's the difference? Ah, I understand, any stick to beat the 'socialists' with. Though in a European context, the PSOE are probably, like New Labour, to the right of Sarko - on economic issues, at least - though they tend to avoid his nationalistic and divisive rhetoric (which is somewhat easier to 'decode' than the examples in this article).Comment originally posted on May 15, 2007 1:58 PM
HOW MANY more elections will be won and lost because of the war in Iraq—and just how tenuous can the connection be, before it ceases to sway voters?
The Spanish Socialist party seems determined to put that question to a pretty strenuous test, as it mounts its campaign for upcoming municipal and regional elections in that country that, however improbably, seeks to link the bloodshed in Iraq with the debate over who should clean the streets, empty the bins and ensure clean water in local swimming pools. True, that is a bit of an exaggeration, because a fair number of powers have been devolved to the regions in Spain. But not much of one.
If there is one thing the May 27 elections are not about, it is Spanish foreign policy. Yet doomy images of violence in Iraq begin this official Socialist party (PSOE) campaign video for the local elections, followed by a young man saying: "I voted no to war, and I will vote yes to living together in harmony." Shortly afterwards, a rugged farmer type on a tractor offers a coded reference to national security policy (another area of policy that has nothing to do with the local elections). "I voted for the truth, and I'll vote against lies," he tells the camera. His words are a none too cryptic reference to Socialist charges that the former conservative government deliberately lied in the immediate aftermath of the terrible Madrid train bombings in March 2004 (which came just before the last general elections), when they insisted the bombings appeared to be the work of the Basque separatist terror group ETA, rather than of Islamic fanatics. The theory, to oversimplify, is that the centre right government of the Partido Popular (PP) was desperate to avoid voter suspicions of a link between the bombings and its unpopular policy of sending Spanish troops to Iraq, so deliberately played up the idea that it was the work of Basques.
The Socialists of today freely admit they are trying to remind voters about the dark days that surrounded the 2004 elections, when terrorism and Iraq hung heavy in the air. A senior party official recently told the newspaper El País that the idea of an Iraq-themed municipal campaign was to offer voters a promise of a "continuity of the values we defended in the general elections" in 2004, which included a promise to withdraw troops from Iraq (a promise kept by the new Socialist government with dizzying speed).

Fear of losing tech edge factors into Pentagon budget plans
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Concerns that cuts in defense spending could erode the U.S. military's technological edge over rivals such as Russia and China are in part driving the Pentagon's plans to slash troop levels and retire aging weapons.
U.S. defense officials have watched in recent years as Moscow and Beijing have tested a string of sophisticated weapons, from radar-evading aircraft and anti-ship missiles that fly many times the speed of sound, to integrated air defenses.
"The development and proliferation of more advanced military technologies by other nations means that we are entering an era where American dominance on the seas, in the skies, and in space can no longer be taken for granted," Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said last week.
Hagel will unveil a 2015 budget on Tuesday that includes cutting the Army by 40,000 to 50,000 troops to levels last seen before the United States entered World War Two and killing off the fleet of tank-killing A-10 "Warthog" aircraft.
The venerable U-2 spy plane from the Cold War era will be retired to allow the Pentagon to focus on developing the unmanned Global Hawk reconnaissance drone.
While the Defense Department's spending of around $500 billion is still more than the next six or seven countries combined, research and development spending has fallen more than 20 percent since President Barack Obama took office.
It is expected to continue dropping as congressionally mandated budget caps force further belt-tightening in the coming years.
"Everything, including R&D (research and development) and S&T (science and technology), takes a big hit in this defense budget," said Mackenzie Eaglen, a defense analyst at the conservative American Enterprise Institute think tank.
In contrast, China and Russia have been rapidly increasing their security spending and have passed new technological milestones in recent years.
The role of Russia's emboldened military in the current Ukraine crisis is another reminder to the United States that Moscow remains a formidable adversary.
IHS Jane's Annual Defense Budgets Review estimated in February that China's defense spending would grow by 14 percent this year to nearly $160 billion in another double-digit percentage jump, while Russia's would rise more than 40 percent to nearly $98 billion by 2016.
China has tested two radar-evading aircraft since 2011. It launched its first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, in 2011 based on a Soviet-era hull purchased from Ukraine, and has begun building what Chinese media said earlier this year would be the first of four indigenous aircraft carriers.
It demonstrated an anti-satellite weapon in 2007, showing it could even put U.S. reconnaissance and communications systems in space at risk.
In a breakthrough, Beijing conducted a hypersonic glider flight in January, testing a system capable of delivering a missile to its target flying several times the speed of sound to elude anti-missile defenses.
The United States, Russia and India are all said to be working on the hypersonic technology, but only Washington and Beijing have conducted test flights.
China, Iran and Russia are also developing precision anti-ship missiles, so-called anti-access, area denial weapons, that can threaten potential adversaries that try to operate near its coastlines.
Those advances and the export of precision-guided weapons and integrated air defenses to other nations is forcing the U.S. Navy to adapt by developing the ability to operate further from shore with longer-range weapons.
"The United States has enjoyed a monopoly in guided weapons for about 20 years," said Robert Work, the former Navy undersecretary nominated to be the deputy defense secretary.
"That monopoly is eroding," Work told Congress in his nomination hearing last week. But some Pentagon-watchers see no need for panic.
Lawrence Korb, a defense analyst with the liberal Center for American Progress think tank, said the rhetoric about losing the technological edge was part of selling the Pentagon's proposed changes to Congress.
"It's not a serious threat," Korb said. "The point they're trying to make is that if you don't do something about ... the spiraling personnel costs, then you could (face a serious threat)."
To keep the technology gap in America's favor, the Pentagon will push ahead with a new long-range bomber that to a certain extent counters rivals' anti-access, area denial systems by enabling U.S. forces to operate from greater range.
The Pentagon is looking to buy up to 100 of the new planes for no more than $550 million apiece and is expected to seek proposals for the aircraft this autumn.
Retiring the A-10 plane would free up $3.5 billion over five years that could be used to ensure continued funding for the radar-evading F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, a multi-role aircraft being developed to replace a wide range of other warplanes.
The F-35 is currently being produced in small lots, but the military expects over time to buy 2,443 of the aircraft at a cost of some $392 billion.
Defense officials say the 2015 budget, which comes into force in October, includes funds to expand the military's defensive and offensive cyber capabilities, which are seen as critical to protecting the military's computer networks and engaging opposing forces in future war.
Navy officials say they also expect funds for continuing research on laser weapons, like one that is to be deployed on the USS Ponce this year, and a project to build a gun that uses electromagnetic energy to fire projectiles.
The Navy has spent about $40 million so far developing the laser weapon, which can be used against drones or missiles or a swarm of small boats.
It emits a pulse of energy and is cheap to use, giving the military "a technological edge that has a huge affordability piece to it," said Rear Admiral Matthew Klunder, chief of naval research.
"That resonates in the building," he said. "This is one of those priorities that we are going to still fund."

Drinking Iced Tea May Increase Risk of Developing Kidney Stones
Bob Ewing
Bob Ewing
Jul 22, 2008 in
What can be better than a tall cold glass of ice tea on a hot summer day? Think twice before downing the drink because you may develop kidney stones due to the drink's high concentration of a chemical that causes stones.
Once he was an "avid lover" of iced tea, downing up to six glasses a day of the popular summertime thirst-quencher.
"I was a junkie on a bender. I had to have it every day," said Mark Mulac, a resident of Brookfield, Ill. "Iced tea was very refreshing, cheap to buy and easy to make."
Mulac has had to give up his favourite summer beverage because
Iced tea helped
bring on an excruciating bout of kidney stones that led to surgery at Loyola University Hospital in Maywood, Ill.
"The pain was so bad that once it felt like I was delivering a child made out of razor blades," said the 46-year-old Mulac. "I really had no idea that iced tea could lead to that."
What happened? Iced tea contains high concentrations of oxalate, one of the key chemicals that lead to the formation of kidney stones, a common disorder of the urinary tract that affects about 10 percent of the population in the United States.
"For many people, iced tea is potentially one of the worst things they can drink," said Dr. John Milner, instructor, department of urology, Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine, Maywood, Ill. "For people who have a tendency to form kidney stones, it's definitely one of the worst things you can drink."
Kidney stones are crystals that form in the kidneys or ureters, the small tubes that drain the urine from the kidney to the bladder. Men are four times more likely to develop kidney stones than women, and their risk rises dramatically once they reach their 40s.
The failure to drink enough fluids is the most common cause of kidney stones. In the summer, when the weather is hot, people are generally more dehydrated due to sweating. The dehydration combined with increase iced tea consumption raises the risk of kidney stones, especially in people who are prone to develop them.
"People are told that in the summertime they should drink more fluids," said Milner, who treated Mulac's kidney stones. "A lot of people choose to drink more iced tea, thinking it's a tastier alternative. However, in terms of kidney stones, they're getting it going and coming. They're actually doing themselves a disservice."
The popularity of iced tea has grown dramatically with a whopping 1.91 billion gallons consumed a year in the U.S., according to the Tea Association of the U.S.A. Nearly 128 Americans drink the beverage daily.
Iced tea's appeal is due to the belief that it is healthier than other beverages such as soda and beer.
"I stayed away from carbonated drinks for a long time because I thought it was upsetting my stomach and that it wasn't as good for me, but I guess overdid it with the iced tea," Mulac said.
Water is your best bet when you want to quench your summer thirst. You can always add lemon slices for some extra flavour.
"Lemons are very high in citrates, which inhibit the growth of kidney stones," Milner said. "Lemonade, not the powdered variety that uses artificial flavoring, actually slows the development of kidney stones for those who are prone to the development of kidney stones."
People concerned about developing kidney stones should cut back on eating foods that also contain high concentrations of oxalates such as spinach, chocolate, rhubarb and nuts.
Also, go easy on salt, eat meat sparingly, drink several glasses a water a day and don't avoid foods high in calcium, which reduces the amount of oxalate the body absorbs.
