Product Description
Let's face it, testosterone is one of the hormones that makes men, men. Testosterone affects many functions of the male body, one of the most noticeable being sex drive or healthy libido.*
Why Testosterone is Important
Testosterone is a critical hormone produced in men and is responsible for inducing and maintaining male sex characteristics such as sex drive and muscle health.*
Free testosterone is testosterone found in the blood stream that is bio-available, and it represents between one to four percent of the total amount of testosterone in a man's body.* It is called "free" because it is not bound to any substance or another hormone in the performance of a specific function and is therefore available for use as it is needed in the body.*
Are you Looking to Help Boost Free Testosterone?
With resistance training, Vitali-T-Aid® ENERGY is a solution for supporting free testosterone levels. Study participants taking Testofen, the natural, plant based key ingredient in Vitali-T-Aid, also reported improvement in sexual desire and performance and, with resistance training, increased muscle mass.*
Clinically Studied Ingredient
The natural, plant based key ingredient in Vitali-T-Aid® ENERGY was shown in two double-blind, placebo controlled, human clinical studies, along with resistance training, to be a safe and effective way to significantly help boost free testosterone levels and, as reported by study participants increase libido, arousal and performance over an eight week period.*
The results, as reported by study participants included improvement in sexual behavior, satisfaction and intensity of orgasm, as well as overall libido or sexual functioning.
Vitali-T-Aid® ENERGY also contains a proprietary Male Stamina Blend consisting of L-Arginine, Asian Ginseng and Caffeine from Natural Coffee Beans designed to help support male health, as well as overall wellbeing, while increasing energy.*
Directions: Men take two (2) capsules daily on an empty stomach with a full glass of water.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. - Owners of the hospitals in Frederick, Hagerstown and Cumberland say they're studying the possibility of joining forces for their continued stability.
The announcement Thursday doesn't specifically mention a potential merger of the Frederick Regional Health System, Hagerstown-based Meritus Health and the Western Maryland Health System of Cumberland. But Meritus President Joe Ross wouldn't rule out that possibility in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
The independent, not-for-profit organizations say they're studying the merits of "affiliation and collaboration" to maintain high-quality, cost-effective health care. They call it a "potential alliance."
They say they have contracted with the California-based Berkeley Research Group to conduct a feasibility study. Ross says he expects a report in 45 days that will more clearly delineate the options they may pursue.

I notice in the video your tanks reposition him after each whirlwind phase more or less back into his original spot.
How important is it to do this? Is it necessary? Couldn't a raid just pick him up where he stops and readjust the raid's positioning to him?
I ask this because for my raid he was very 'jerky' when we tried to reposition him (lots of 'move and stop, move and stop'), which led to some threat issues.

Haven't smelled it...what's so great about it?
Thread: Now hear this!
I decree is the best designer fragrance in existence. That is all, as you were.
Haven't smelled it...what's so great about it?
Are you not entertained??? Is this not why you are here??
Why's it #5 on your list then? JK. Yep it's a good one.
I can't stand it personally, but as long as you love it...
Current Top Favorites:
1) Portrait of a Lady original formula (EdP Frédéric Malle)
2) Giorgio for Men vintage/V.I.P. for Men (Giorgio Beverly Hills)
3) Dia Man vintage edt (Amouage)
4) Anat Fritz Original Formula and Classical (Anat Fritz) - tie
4) Lalfeorosa (O'driù) - tie
6) Les Nombres d'Or Vetyver (Mona di Orio)
7) Captain vintage (Molyneux)
8) Tzora (Anat Fritz)

9) Patou pour Homme Privé (Jean Patou) - tie
9) Oud Shamash (The Different Company) - tie
Agree it's a very nice scent.
If that is the case, then how come you have another designer house ahead of DHI in your top 10? lol
I like it but Fahrenheit is still the KING of the designers in my book!
At least one of the best, yes.
"Le parfum est la musique du corps"
(Marcel Rochas)
Part of me would like to try this, but another part of me is scared to, because of the terms I've seen associated with this one: girly, makeup/lipstick smell, sweet, powdery, etc. I'm pretty sure DHI wouldn't be my cup of tea.
- - - Updated - - -
Can't abide the stuff personally - everyone to their own
Not really crazy about DHI, but I agree -- to each his own.
There's only one better: DIOR HOMME EDT
Not a bad fragrance, but the best designer in existense, not quite.
As long as you like it, that is most important.
Prefer M7 myself, but DHI is one of the few designers that I own and enjoy on the occasions that I wear it. However, if we were to get technical and allow Costume National and Comme des Garçons onto the designer list (although some consider them niche), I wouldn't choose a Dior or YSL for a first pick.
Handbag? Lipstick?! Girly Did I get on the wrong ship?
Current top 10 (No order):
1. Pure Havane
2. Menthe Fraiche
3. Tobacco Vanille
4. L'Air Du Desert Marocain
5. Green Irish Tweed
6. Fahrenheit
7. Musc Ravageur
8. Tonka Imperial
9. Gucci Pour Homme II
10. Dior Homme Intense
I have only smelled DH, but it is a wonderful scent indeed.
Sorry to interrupt but Cartier Must Essence is the greatest scent of all time!!!
Are you not entertained??? Is this not why you are here??
It is wonderful stuff. I think one of the keys is not to use too much. The sillage is intense on DHI. One spray is perfect for me. I can smell myself all day and it's not overpowering with one spray. More than that makes me feel like I've overdone it.
Beyond any doubt, standing out amongst so many designer releases, this one succeeding to be rather unique where so many other scents may fail and/or remain too generic.
Actually boys, ADG is the king of designers. Just ask the sales associates at any fragrance outlet who has sold the most. DHI bows it's pretty little head in shame at the one true king.
"I am a robot and I like cheese"
Top 5:
1. Axe Kilo
2. Lectric Shave
3. Vicks Vapor Rub
4. Febreze Pour Homme
5. Preferred Stock
Each to his own...personal taste rules, after all. Glad for you. Wear it proudly!
"I love fragrances because they provide a sheer endless variety: there is a scent for every occasion, mood or feeling. Standing before my collection in the morning matching a perfume to my needs is one of the most enjoyable things in my day"..... I don't want to miss that

DHI is a good scent, I'll give you that, but it is still NO Chanel Égoïste or Dior Fahrenheit for that matter...
- Mark
Are you an oenophile? Join our wine group! http://www.basenotes.net/group.php?groupid=108
dh is good but only to most of the fragrance enthusiast, if you where ask a guy on the street if they liked it they would probably say its too sweet and not a pastry sweet but like a wet smooch sweet. its great but it takes the right person to appreciate it. i am guessing this would sell better to women but its good to know this is marketed to men and not to many wear it.
Any opinions I post here about frags only reflect MY PERSONAL TASTE and only my personal preference which could change at any moment.
Chanel Antaeus is No 4 on the list
Dior Homme Intense is No. 5 on same list
Should not Antaeus then be your favorite designer scent ?

'Those who grow too big for their pants will be exposed in the end'--anon
I've not yet smelled DHI and from reading the many comments about it I am curious.
The best designer fragrance I've ever tried is Third Man by Caron. And if you don't count Caron as a designer house, Gucci Nobile, though not currently on my signature list, is my favorite.
Current Favorites:
1. Le 3me Homme - Caron
2. Yatagan - Caron
3. Van Cleef & Arples Pour Homme
4. Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme
5. Kouros - YSL
6. L'Anarchiste - Caron
7. Xeryus - Givenchy
8. V.I.P. Special Reserve - Giorgio Beverly Hills
9. The Dreamer - Versace
10. Nobile - Gucci
Imo the original vintage Dior Homme is better than DHI. But the reigning king of designer is indeed AdG.
DH is pretty close to the top on that spreadsheet from the most complimented thread...

Editor's note: Nicholas Spiro is managing director of London-based Spiro Sovereign Strategy, a niche consultancy specializing in sovereign credit risk. Spiro advises private and institutional clients on qualitative aspects of sovereign risk, with a particular focus on Europe.
(CNN) -- The eurozone is heading into 2013 in better shape than a year ago.
Greece is about to receive its latest tranche of aid as part of efforts to keep the country inside the 17-strong bloc. European leaders have taken the first concrete step towards a banking union by handing over direct supervision of many of the eurozone's biggest banks to the European Central Bank (ECB). Even the latest political crisis in Italy has had a muted impact on the country's bond market.
Read more: What does Silvio's return mean for Italy?
At the end of last year, it seemed like the eurozone was heading towards a disorderly break-up. Now, the sense among many investors is that the acute phase of the crisis is over and that the single currency area has turned a corner.
The gap between what the markets believe should be done to shore up the eurozone and what policymakers are actually doing to restore confidence has narrowed over the past several months.
Yet as the upshot of today's end-of-year European summit in Brussels makes clear, rifts over the management of the eurozone crisis are still manifest. Important decisions on creating a fiscal and economic union to strengthen Europe's shaky monetary alliance have been put off until June. This is primarily due to fundamental differences between the continent's two largest economies: Germany and France.
Read more: Is the eurozone crisis almost over?
Germany, which is holding a crucial parliamentary election in September -- which Chancellor Angela Merkel's ruling Christian Democrats (CDU) are expected to win -- is resisting any form of debt mutualisation. France, meanwhile, is wary of surrendering sovereignty. Indeed, the two countries, which have been the motor of European integration, have never been more at odds over how to restore confidence and revive growth in the eurozone.
The standoff between France and Germany is now the biggest stumbling block to solving the eurozone crisis once and for all. Further delays in implementing key reforms raise the spectre of more bouts of market turmoil next year. It also begs the question whether creditor countries, led by Germany, will ever be willing to commit themselves to the level of integration needed to secure the future of the eurozone.
Read more: Greek anger beyond despair
So, is next year going to be another turbulent one for Europe?
Quite possibly, but I see a crucial difference between the end of 2012 and the end of 2011: The ECB's government bond-buying program, announced earlier this year. The Financial Times is right to name ECB president Mario Draghi its "Person of the Year." If it wasn't for Draghi's July 26 pledge to "do whatever it takes to preserve the euro," Europe would be in a much bigger mess right now.
The more positive mood among investors stems entirely from Draghi's pledge to buy unlimited amounts of short-term Spanish and Italian debt as part of a bold plan to dispel fears that the eurozone will fall apart. It's the "Draghi effect" that has convinced the markets that, despite all the problems in Europe, the nightmare scenario of a eurozone break-up is now much less likely to come true.
This is why I see Europe being a tale of two halves next year. The first-half is that the self-fulfilling panic in the bond markets which reared its ugly head again in July is unlikely to return. There will be bouts of nervousness centred around Spain and Italy in the coming weeks, but not as debilitating as was the case in November 2011.
The second-half is the bleak economic, political and social realities in the eurozone. The big issues of the crisis remain unresolved and are being kicked into the long grass. Draghi has done his bit to restore confidence. It's now up to Europe's political leaders to shore up the eurozone. Unfortunately, they still have a mountain to climb.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Nicholas Spiro.

WASHINGTON - Now there may be an even better reason for consuming foods like red meat, red wine, dark chocolate and coffee.
It turns out these foods don't just taste great, they also pack some amazing health benefits.
According to Denise Foley, executive editor at Prevention Magazine, having just one cup of coffee a day can cut a person's risk for diabetes by 7 percent.
Red wine is another beverage that boasts of health benefits. Polyphenols, antioxidants found in red wines, have protective qualities against illnesses such as heart disease and possibly cancer.
Dark chocolate also contains antioxidants that can lower a person's risk for heart disease and may even protect the body from diabetes.
Experts say one egg a day can actually be good for human health.
"Even though they're high in cholesterol, it doesn't seem to be absorbed in the body as cholesterol," explains Foley.
Those who enjoy red meat should stick to the lean cuts, which Foley says aren't that much more fatty than chicken or turkey. Red meat also contains essential nutrients, such as B12 and iron.

Gawande: Hospitals Profit When Surgeries Go Wrong
Hospitals make a lot more profit when an insured surgical patient develops complications than when the procedure proceeds error-free, says a new study by Boston surgeon Atul Gawande, MD.
Hospitals also profit, though to a lesser degree, when complications occur in Medicare patients.
Gawande insists that hospitals are not making essential quality improvements to avoid complications, even though many strategies have been proven effective.
"It's no surprise that they [hospitals] have not made the major kinds of investments in quality control that you might expect, given these kinds of cost figures we're seeing," says Gawande, of Brigham and Women's Hospital and author of numerous books and articles on healthcare improvement.
Gawande emphasizes that he doesn't think hospitals or doctors are deliberately causing their patients to have complications so they can bill for more reimbursement.
"I know of no hospitals that are deliberately accepting or provoking complications for the sake of profit," he says. He adds that until now he's "not sure anyone, even the hospital systems themselves, really understood the financial magnitude of the profit margins that come from these complications."
The report, published in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association, was prepared by Sunil Eappen, MD, Gawande and others. It analyzed 34,256 surgical discharges from an unidentified 12-hospital system in the southern part of the country.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

No kidding, the doctor has to do more work because of a complication and additional revenue is generated, who would have thought. Why is this article is printed, it doesn't take a genius to see this risk. So what's the solution, all procedures have to be taped and review to ensure doctors are not be unethical. Come on, this risk has always been there and always will be. Are there doctors that take advantage of this, yes, and again, there always will be. Do the vast majority of doctors have the ethical sense not to do this, yes, and they always will.
Naomi Price (4/17/2013 at 7:52 PM)
What a cascade of horrors. It's good that your surgeon has been kind and compassionate and that your hospital at least apologized. However, it's impossible to know from your comment, at least, the source of the infection. It could trace to the surgeon. Or not. I do hope you continue to improve and that your knee replacement goes well. As for "paperwork" interfering with safety, what kind of paperwork interferes with hand hygiene? With use of surgical checklists, each and every time? With CLABSI prevention protocols? With attention to environmental cleaning? With pre-surgery MRSA screening & education of patients? With VTE & DVT protocols? This study dealt solely with surgical/post-surgical care, nothing else.
Tara Bukowsky (4/17/2013 at 12:12 PM)
Approximately a year and a half ago, I underwent a simple knee arthroscopy for a torn medial meniscus at Cox Walnut Lawn in Springfield, Mo. Following surgery, I developed a severe enterococcus hospital acquired infection deep in the joint resulting in septic arthritis. Five additional surgeries, 2 inpatient hospitalizations, drains, a picc line, seven weeks of IV antibiotics, a DVT, Lovenex injections, home health nursing and months of lab draws were required to treat the infection. I lost my job and my health care coverage as a result of this ordeal. The hospital billed my insurance company (that I had at the time), then balance billed me. My surgeon, who I feel was not responsible for this infection in any way not only saved my life, but remained compassionate and supportive throughout this entire ordeal. I do feel though that the hospital was responsible, but they feel differently and have offered an apology for the immense physical, emotional and financial strain this has placed on me and on my husband. I have remained under care, still unable to work and now require a total knee replacement. The hospital could have responded to my repeated requests to assist with some of the financial burden, but said I was a "statistic" and they felt that I had not received improper care. My care was appropriate for the circumstance, but was required due to an event that should never have occured in the first place.

Foraging, by definition, is searching and working for a food supply. It provides both mental stimulation and physical exercise. And, birds being flock animals get a great deal of socialization out of their foraging activities. Research has shown that birds would rather forage for food rather than eat what is readily available.
Your pet bird's cage is its rainforest world, so it needs toys that provide the mental and physical stimulation. Sadly, these toys are usually absent in a captive cage life. Providing a set of foraging bird toys are one component to offering your bird the mental and physical stimulation it needs to be happy pet that is fun to be around.
Ideally, you'd want to set your birds cage up so that it has several types of foraging toys that, when used together, require him to "hunt" or rummage for food. Birds that have food effortlessly available in cups and dishes never experience the instinctual need to hunt for food - so they tend to become lethargic and slothful. These bored behaviors often evolve into behavior problems such as screaming, aggression or feather plucking.
Feeding your bird mostly or strictly from foraging toys has a ton of benefits, although it may be a little time consuming for you. But your caged bird will have an opportunity to forage for food.
Did you know that a parrot that feeds from a traditional dish only spends 15 – 30 minutes a day with feeding activity? That is astounding when you consider that wild birds spend about 4 -6 HOURS foraging for food each day. Wild birds don't have time to get bored.
As your bird chews through soft materials and rummages through bird safe substrate, it has to move many muscles. Not only does chewing and rummaging take up time, but it exercises the body. The bird has to manipulate items by moving them with its feet or beak. It may have to hold a bird safe box with one foot while chewing through it and rummaging to find treats with its beak. Your bird will naturally develop these skills as time goes on.
Occupy your pet bird's mind by offering food in refillable, bird safe puzzles. Your bird will have to figure out how to use a variety of puzzles to obtain its daily intake. Try having 2-3 foraging puzzles in the cage at a time located in areas where your healthy bird has to be a trapeze artist to manipulate the moving parts -just like wild birds do. Promote searching for and finding food, doing whatever work is necessary to obtain food and using their natural skills to manipulate small items. In time, your bird will become a self-sufficient forager.
Budgeting time.
Your pet must also learn to budget enough time to satisfy its appetite, which may increase as it burns more calories to obtain food. If it spends its time feather plucking or screaming for no reason, it will be a little hungry.
Of course, you want to condition your parrot to obtain its diet via foraging toys over a period of time, while monitoring its weight to insure that it is getting an adequate diet. Make sure that your bird has adequately transitioned to obtaining food from foraging toys before removing food dishes. Keep in mind that as you make the transition to foraging feeding, your bird has to become a little scholar in the ways of birds. Changing the habit of easy dish feeding to that of sharpening intellectual skills and conditioning its body to get at the food will take some time.
Research attests that parrots are incredibly intelligent and curious with strong needs to chew, explore and mouth things. And, with two zygodactyl feet (two toes pointing forward and two backwards) and a beak that is used like a third arm, our birds are truly trapeze artists that are completely capable of manipulating toys to obtain their daily caloric intake.
Caitec has developed two styles of foraging toys to satisfy a birds need to rummage and hunt for food.
There are several manufacturers that make fun, shreddable boxes or toys that you can hide treats in. You just have to use your imagination on some of them. Purchase bird toys from reputable companies so that you can trust that the glues and paper are bird safe. Fill up the toys with dry food like pellets, Goldenfeast foods, and nuts. You never want to use moist or cooked bird food as mixing moist food with paper products will grow bacteria and fungus. Observe your toys regularly to determine if it is becoming moldy.
Once again, you'll want to use dry foods in refilable puzzles. The last thing you want to do is make your bird sick from foraging. Puzzle style foraging toys rare in the intermediate to advanced level of difficulty range. Your bird has to think about how to get the food or treat. More advanced styles of toys require a bird to perform a two step process to obtain the desired food.
Very simple behaviors such as retrieving food hidden in crumpled paper, holes drilled in wood with toys or nuts inserted inside,
Toys: Buffet Balls, Stainless Steel Bucket full of toys, substrate, Hanging Mega Munch Ball
Intermediate foraging involves a one step process where a bird has to retrieve visible items inside of a container, for instance a see through container where you bird has to figure out how to open the container to retrieve the desired object.
Toys: Foraging Wheel, Buffet Ball with Skewer
Advanced foraging toys include two step or more puzzles filled with food or toys your bird having to figure out how to retrieve, i.e. whereas a task such as untying knots allows a door to open thereby making food or toys retrievable.
Toys: Mastermind,

Drug War Rages in Wisconsin
Based on its actions over the past 15 years (review the sidebar in the app version of this article), controversy and the Wisconsin Chiropractic Association seem to go hand in hand.
Capturing the Essence of Tai Chi
Over the last 12 years, I have been working on one of the few documentaries about Tai Chi. It's called The Professor: Tai Chi's Journey West and it's about Cheng Man-Ching who moved to New York in the 1960s.
Peer Points: Promoting TCM Knowledge
When Elaine Wolf Komarow, LAc, received her first acupuncture treatment in 1989, she said it changed her life. "I felt more aware, calmer, and happier. I was so fascinated by the changes that I began to learn everything I could about the underlying philosophy of Chinese medicine," said Komarow.
The McGill Approach to the Lower Back (Part 1)
Stuart McGill, PhD, brings a unique combination of tools to the table. He is a scientist who also functions as a clinician. He describes himself as a medical consultant who is referred challenging patients. He is both evidence based and practical.
"Turn, Turn, Turn"
Many people are credited with saying, "If you remember the '60s, you really weren't there." Given the fact I didn't become a teenager until 1970, I actually do remember the '60s (or at least part of it). And as a child of the '60s, I was, of course, influenced by the music.
Meat in the Middle
Have you ever wondered what's the truth about meat? Is it really as bad as many people think?
Micro-Needle Dermal Roller Use in the Treatment Room
Recently micro-needle dermal rollers have been getting a lot of media attention. As a practitioner who specializes in acupuncture facial rejuvenation, I know that skin needling with a dermal roller (also known as collagen induction therapy), promotes the natural reproduction of collagen and elastin, making the skin feel smoother and tighter.
Inspire Your Patients to Make Healthy Choices
Have you tried to get your patients to change their eating habits or their diet and couldn't get them to succeed? Were they confused and unsure of what the right thing was to eat? You are not alone!
The Acupuncture Now Foundation: What Our Profession Needs
Although acupuncture is growing in popularity it continues to be underutilized due to misunderstandings about its true potential. Only a fraction of those who could be helped by acupuncture know enough to seek it out.
Implications of Section 2706: The Non-Discrimination Provision Survey
In late April 2014, NCCAOM diplomates received an email survey with the subject line: "End discrimination against acupuncturists" polling CAM practitioners for a Request for Information from the Department of Health and Human Services, released in mid-March.
Five Element Acupuncture Can Enhance Your Practice
For eight years I have been teaching and supervising TCM students at an acupuncture college in Colorado, in Five Element acupuncture.
Chinese Medicine: The Natural Way to Children's Wellness
As a child, I did not like going to the doctor. For the most part, when I had to go I wasn't feeling good to begin with, and I was heading into a sterile environment to be awkwardly probed by a man in a white coat for a very short, impersonal period of time.
Finders Keepers: The Secret to Relationship-Based Marketing
Becoming a successful practitioner has less to do with what you learned in school, and more to do with your ability to find new patients and keep them!
The Power of Mu Xiang to Treat Irritable Bowel Disease
Bloating and gas pain is something that everyone has had to deal with at one point or another; however, that's usually reserved for holiday dinners and other large gatherings.
Introduce Your Patients to Collagen Induction Therapy
Cutaneous (skin) aging generally occurs from either intrinsic or extrinsic processes. Intrinsic aging results from natural skin tissue damage and degeneration.
Following the Thinking of the Classics
I have heard about the "best time of day" to carry out certain examinations or therapies. For example, I remember making a note years ago that early morning is the best time to take someone's pulses.
Understanding Epigenetics
Chronic heightened emotional states create a perfect breeding ground for illness. Through my practice I noted the increasingly obvious relationship between one's mental focus on negative thinking, emotions, resistance to experiencing feelings and disease.
The Bottom Line ... From a Surgeon Who Knows
Regardless of individual relationships between providers, there continues to be a type of Hatfield-McCoy feud between the philosophies of medicine and chiropractic, particularly when it comes to musculoskeletal ailments.
Alcohol Consumption Strongly Linked to Risk of Colorectal Cancer
Alcohol intake is one of the primary risk factors for many human cancers, and is strongly associated with cancers of the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, liver, breast, and notably, the colon and rectum.
Acupuncture Detox as Part of Drug Rehabilitation
In the U.S., more than 2,000 alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs have added ear acupuncture to their practice. The development of the protocol was determined by Lincoln Hospital as it delivered 100 acupuncture treatments daily.

Public relations has not always been the chiropractic profession's strong suit, a shortcoming that has subjected the profession to countless attacks on its legitimacy and seemingly perpetual confusion among the public and the health care world as to the skills and services doctors of chiropractic provide.

How come we're not scared?on April 1, 2013 @ 5:39 am (Updated: 9:23 am - 4/1/13 )
No one seems to be scared of North Korea.
This has to be very frustrating to Kim Jong Un who has been doing everything he can to make it clear he has a battle plan to bring America to its knees. He released a photograph of his war room - with his generals standing in front of a map that was clearly labeled, according to the translation, "U.S. Mainland Strike Plan" and showing lines leading from North Korea to the cities of Honolulu, San Diego, Austin, Texas, and Washington, D.C.
And yet no one in any of these cities seems the least bit scared. In fact, the reaction on Twitter has been nothing but a series of jokes - like this one from Shelley in Austin who tweeted, "Forbes rates Austin third most nuke-able city in U.S. Mayor credits educated workforce, music scene."
Poor Kim must be wondering what he has to do. He notices that every time Iran announces some improvement in its uranium centrifuges, we go crazy. And they don't even have a bomb.
In fact, even in South Korea, which is clearly in range - people also seem to have a "bring it on attitude."
One South Korean man told Al Jazeera, "If they fire one missile, we should fire back two and hit Kim Jong Un's headquarters."
And a woman said, "Talking and warning about the war is only raising the tensions, but I think it's North Korea who is afraid."
And that's the danger: you have a young dictator who nobody seems frightened of. And that just might be what makes him desperate enough to actually fire a real weapon at real people.

ITHACA, N.Y. -- The first week of testimony wraps up in the Corbin Whyte murder trial. The Ithaca man is accused in the shooting death of Paul Garcia in 2010.
Over the last five days, witnesses for the prosecution have included people who were with Garcia and Whyte on the evening of the shooting, as well as state police investigators and cell phone experts.
On Friday, jurors heard from a woman who testified she helped Whyte discard of his clothing after the shooting. The defense pointed out that the witness changed her story several times since the crime.
Prosecutors say Whyte was involved in shooting Garcia and robbing him, then tried to hide the evidence. The defense maintains there is no evidence linking Whyte to the shooting. The prosecution will continue to call witnesses next week.

Company Website
Welcome to Pearson. Around a decade ago, we set out to make this a learning company. (We said, a little too immodestly for my liking, that we wanted to become the world's leading learning company).
We've made some progress along the way. But whatever we've accomplished, we recognize the wisdom in Alexander Pope's observation.
We can't stop at a little; there is so much more to do. Tens of millions of students still don't even have the chance to go to school. Many more fall behind or drop out of education completely, as adults languish without the skills to realize their dreams.
Our goal is to reach these people, and to help them reach their potential . . . to make more of their lives through learning.
We are as interested in helping people learn outside school as inside; from basic education to workable skills. And like our customers, we've found that the learning itself can be as valuable and enjoyable as the knowledge it gives us.
So wherever we see Pearson, that's why we remind ourselves that we are – and we hope to help others to be – always learning.

Editor's note: The final pages of this story contain part of the report written by the humane investigator for this case.
FAUQUIER COUNTY, Va. - Websites for Fauquier County dog breeder Irina Barrett show dogs and puppies playing in a large paddock area. There's plenty of information about the care Barrett takes in breeding and training happy, healthy dogs.
But reading the January report from a humane investigator offers a starkly different picture.
Great Danes, Boxers, French Bulldogs and Dobermans kept in plastic or wire crates --some in an unheated outbuilding, one in a crate in a dark closet, others with scars from fights.
Plus all of the dogs were in quarters with a strong odor of feces and urine.
Part of the report written by Hilleary Bogley, a humane investigator in Fauquier and Culpeper counties describes dogs found in one kennel area as appearing "underweight, fearful/unsocialized."
The same report indicates that after Bogley's first visit, she found out there were other dogs on the site Barrett hadn't shown her. Barrett is otherswise described in the report as cooperative and willing to make improvements on the site.
On Thursday, the Fauquier County Board of Zoning Appeals held a hearing on Barrett's request to get approval to operate her kennel. The meeting room in Warrenton was packed with people, some neighbors, and all opposed to Barrett's request. The meeting took place after several members of the board visited Barrett's home as part of a site visit.
WTOP was allowed to visit, but the owner barred photos from being taken.
At the hearing, a tearful Barrett plopped a foot-high stack of documents on the speaker's podium and told the board members that they represented documentation of her dedication to caring for and breeding her dogs.
Breaking down into tears Barrett told the members, "I know what I am. I am honest and straightforward. I am not a puppy mill."
She tearfully told the board members she would do what they required as long as she could continue to breed her dogs at her Broad Run home, she mentioned Dobermans - not the other breeds.
"I can't lose my dogs, it's everything to me. I hope you base your decision on the facts, what you've seen."
After she spoke, a parade of witnesses testified starting with Bogley, whose report appeared online in many dog forums and sparked outrage and interest. Bogley, who runs an animal rescue site called the Middleburg Humane Foundation made clear that Barrett was cooperative and accomodating throughout her investigation.
Bogley declined to call the situation in the Broad Run home abusive
"It is not a cruelty case," Bogley said. She followed this, however, with, "I consider it a puppy mill."
"Mrs. Barrett knows what she's doing. She moved from Fairfax County where she did have a kennel license violation."
The Humane Society of the United States defines a puppy mill this way: "A puppy mill is an inhumane, commercial dog-breeding facility in which the health of the dogs is disregarded in order to maintain a low overhead and maximize profits."
Barrett insists what she does isn't a money-making operation, but a kennel dedicated to breeding quality dogs.
Learning Barrett had a previous experience operating a kennel without a license and then moved to Fauquier, where she's operated without a kennel license for three and a half years, infuriated some of the speakers. It prompted many to ask the zoning board to keep the fact in mind as they decide whether to grant her a special permit.
Charles Dennis says he lives next door to the Barrett's property.
" I can't sit on my patio day or evening without hearing those dogs barking. I've counted anywhere from 16 to 20 to 22 at a time."
Sometimes Dennis says he'd hear fighting break out among the dogs, describing the noise as "disturbing."
"The squeals of the poor dog getting the bad end of the stick - the noise is atrocious. "
Summing up his testimony Dennis said, "The care of the dogs is beyond my comprehension."
Another neighbor, Jeff Caliberi said dogs had jumped Barrett's fence and that he'd called her a number of times to tell her the fencing on her property needed to be improved.
Caliberi called the fencing totally inadequate and said on a couple of occasions, dogs had made it onto his property and cornered his horse inside its barn.

There is no one quite like her. Michelle Obama. This is the first book to tell the astonishing story of a woman whose intellect, verbal flair, and poise are certain to make her one of the most influential First Ladies in history.
A woman whose remark, For the first time in my adult life I am really proud of my country, did her husbands campaign no good. A woman whose impassioned speech to the Democratic National Convention may have helped win him the Oval Office. A woman touted as a future presidential candidate herself.
Readers are given a revealing and intimate look at Michelle Obamas remarkable lifefrom her Chicago childhood to her education at Princeton and Harvard, from how she first met Barack Obama at the prestigious law firm where they were the only African-Americans, to her role as his closest adviser, and to her own political beliefs. For Michelle, family comes first, andlike so many women who struggle between family and careershe seriously weighed her husbands presidential ambitions before giving her stamp of approval. Apparently she struck a hard bargain: he had to give up smoking.

The Webster community is reacting to the fatal shooting and trying to come to terms with the tragedy that just unfolded. YNN's Geoff Redick has more on a vigil that has been set up.
WEBSTER, N.Y. -- On any other morning in Webster, New York, you're not likely to awaken to gunfire.
"This morning we heard gunshots, firing back and forth," Gina Nuccitelli said.
"Bam-bam-bam, you know I heard additional shooting. And apparently that's when....a few gentlemen got shot," Tony Casciani said.
On any other Christmas Eve here, you'd likely be joyful, not sad.
Sarah Smith said, "It's just a tragedy. With everything going on...it's just senseless."
This Christmas Eve in Webster was not like any other. Friends, neighbors, local firefighters and police...killed.
"Fireman Mike Chiapperini, who's also a lieutenant with the Webster Police Department was deceased at the scene," said Webster Police Chief Gerald Pickering.
How does a community recover from tragedy when they've had one just a year before?
Webster will recover. They'll do it, by ignoring the evil.
"The terrible evil that you see with something like this," Lieutenant Governor Bob Duffy said.
Focusing instead on the good.
Pickering said, 'We are a strong people. We have some great leaders in the state and in this county. And, you know, we're going to pick up the pieces and go forward."
Recovery will come, with time, but not today.
"It's a, it's a very difficult situation," Pickering said.
It's a sorrowful Christmas in Webster.
