|Office of Admissions and Outreach
|UC Davis School of Medicine
|4610 X Street, Suite 1202
|Sacramento, CA 95817
|(916) 734-4800
The UC Davis School of Medicine offers a traditional four year M.D. program as well as a number of other joint degree and both pre- and post-graduate programs. While the school follows the traditional model of the first two years being class based and the second two years being clinically based, UCDSOM strives to supply its first and second year students with numerous clinical opportunities ranging from student run clinics to a doctoring curriculum starting in the first quarter of first year.
The School of Medicine moved to a new building on the UCDMC campus in Sacramento in January of 2007. Before the entire program moved to to the Sacramento Medical Center campus, the coursework years of the MD program took place in Davis.
The current dean is Dr. Claire Pomeroy.
There are approximately 93 med students in each incoming class. When not found in class or at the hospital, students can be found at student and community run clinics, taking a break from classes at the ARC, playing Ultimate Frisbee, participating in a rowdy game of ping-pong in the student lounge, studying, eating at Scrubs or La Bou (or more likely at home), catching some shut-eye, and procrastinating by making Davis Wiki pages.
The atmosphere at UCDSOM tends to be challenging but laid back, most notably during first and second year, since classes are graded on a Pass/Fail basis. This means better friendships and a non-competitive, cooperative environment when it comes to school.
The University of California Regents approved the creation of a school of medicine at UC Davis in 1963. The school opened its doors to students in September of 1968. There were 48 students admitted in the first class. Under the supervision of the founding dean, C. John Tupper, M.D., after whom Tupper Hall is named, it took only 34 months to establish the medical school. "This was and remains the shortest start-up time of any school of medicine" (citation).
The relationship between the school of medicine and the UC Davis Medical Center began in the fall of 1966. At the time, the facility was the Sacramento County Hospital. Later it was purchased by the university and assumed its new name.
The School of Medicine was part of the controversy surrounding the historic Supreme Court case of Regents of the University of California v. Bakke, that barred quota systems in affirmative action. Allan Bakke applied to the School of Medicine and was denied admission. He sued on the basis that the quotas used in admission were discriminatory(citation).

What is bladder cancer grading?
Grading of bladder cancer is done by the pathologist by examination of the tumor specimen under a microscope. It is a measure of the extent by which the tumor cells differ in their appearance from normal bladder cells. Greater the distortion of appearance, the higher the grade assigned. High-grade cancers are more aggressive than low-grade ones and have a greater propensity to invade into the bladder wall and spread to other parts of the body.
- Grade 1 cancers have cells that look very much like normal cells. They are called low grade or well differentiated and tend to grow slowly and are not likely to spread.
- Grade 2 cancers have cells that look more abnormal. They are called medium grade or moderately differentiated and may grow or spread more quickly than low grade.
- Grade 3 cancers have cells that look very abnormal. They are called high grade or poorly differentiated and are more quickly growing and more likely to spread.
In 2004, the World Health Organization developed a new grading system for bladder cancer. This system divides bladder cancers into the following groups.
- Urothelial papilloma - noncancerous (benign) tumor
- Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) - slow growing and unlikely to spread
- Low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma - slow growing and unlikely to spread
- High-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma - more quickly growing and more likely to spread
Stage and grade of bladder cancer play a very important role not just in deciding the treatment that an individual patient should receive but also in quantifying the chances of success with that treatment. Of note, carcinoma in situ (CIS or Tis, as mentioned in the section on staging) is always high grade.
What is transurethral surgery or "TURBT" for bladder cancer?
The initial surgical procedure that a patient undergoes after the diagnosis of bladder cancer is established is usually a transurethral resection of bladder tumor or "TURBT." It is done with the help of special instruments attached to a cystoscope (mentioned earlier in the section on investigations) and involves cutting out the tumor and removing it from the bladder with the help of an electrical cautery device. This surgery is done through the normal urinary passage and does not involve an external cut on the body. It is the initial treatment of bladder cancer as well as a staging procedure since the specimen retrieved from the surgery is sent to a pathologist who gives his/her inference on the depth of invasion of the tumor in the bladder wall (T stage) as well as the grade (high/low). Further treatment depends to a large extent on the findings of this initial surgery as well as the other staging investigations and is covered in the sections to follow.

Lake Grove Fire District Tax Levy, Measure 3-427 (May 2013)
A Lake Grove Fire District Tax Levy measure was overwhelmingly approved on the May 21, 2013, election ballot in Clackamas County, which is in Oregon.
This measure authorized the Lake Grove Fire District to renew a property tax levy of 0.40 mill ($0.4 per $1,000 of assessed valuation) for five years. The estimated annual revenue from this tax is between $167,000 and $190,000. Details about this tax can be found in the Summary under the Text of measure section below.[1]
Election results
|Measure 3-427
- These results are from Clackamas County elections office
Text of measure
Question on the ballot:
Shall Lake Grove Fire District levy five-year local option levy of $.40 per $1,000 of assessed value beginning FY 2014-15?
This measure would authorize the Lake Grove Rural Fire Protection District No. 57 ("District") to renew its local option tax levy for fire services at a rate of $.40 per $1,000 dollars of assessed value on real property located within the District, beginning in FY 2014-15. The District's previous five-year levy for fire services, in the amount of $0.55 per $1,000 of assessed value, expires June 30, 2014.
The District contracts with the City of Lake Oswego for the provision of all fire services for District residents. This levy, if approved, will be used to reimburse the City for those services. A small portion of the levy would be retained by the District to pay for District administration such as auditing, legal services and election expenses.
The estimated total amount to be levied each year is as follows:
Explanatory Statement
For many years, the Lake Grove Fire District has provided fire protection services to its residents by contract with the City of Lake Oswego. The District has paid the City for those services by means of the District's permanent tax rate and by a five-year local option levy. That current local option levy, in the amount of $.55 per $1,000 of assessed value of property, will expire June 30, 2014. The local option levy proposed by this ballot measure is intended to replace the levy which will expire in 2014, thereby allowing the District to pay the City of Lake Oswego for fire services for an additional four years, until June 30, 2018. The levy is in addition to the District's permanent tax rate of $1.9092 per $1,000 of assessed value.
In order to have sufficient funds to continue receiving fire protection services from the City, the District Board has determined the need to replace the current levy. The proposed levy would be for five years in the amount of $.40 per $1,000 of assessed value each year, which is a reduction of $0.15 per $1,000 of assessed value. The funds collected from the proposed levy would be used primarily to reimburse the City of Lake Oswego for fire protection services, but also to cover administrative costs of the District, such as auditing and legal expenses, election costs, and other minor administrative matters.

Australia and WIPO Sign Agreement in Favor of Least-Developed and Developing Countries
|Written by Gene Quinn
Patent Attorney & Founder of IPWatchdog, Inc.
Principal Lecturer, PLI Patent Bar Review Course Posted: June 15, 2012 @ 4:50 pm
Australia's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the World Trade Organization, Tim Yeend, said Australia's contribution built upon existing cooperation between WIPO and IP Australia in relation to the provision of IP-related technical assistance and capacity building in the Asia-Pacific region.
"Australia's contribution demonstrates its commitment to assisting least-developed and developing countries to promote and protect their creativity and innovation through the intellectual property system," he said.
The memorandum of understanding identifies four areas for funding: developing intellectual property systems; promoting technology transfer; addressing neglected tropical diseases and ensuring persons with print disabilities have equal access to published works as persons without print disabilities.
WIPO Director General Francis Gurry welcomed Australia's contribution which he said would serve the development needs of least-developed and developing countries. "This generous contribution will cover projects to help least-developed and developing countries build capacity in the field of intellectual property and ensure they were in a position to actively participate in the benefits of innovation and the knowledge economy," he said.
WIPO, as the lead United Nations agency mandated to promote the protection of intellectual property through cooperation among states and in collaboration with other international organizations, is committed to ensuring that all countries are able to benefit from the use of IP for economic, social and cultural development.
Australia's $2 million contribution to WIPO is part of an AusAID AUD$16 million package to help least-developed and developing countries benefit from global trade.
NOTE: This communiqué is released jointly with the Australian Permanent Mission to the World Trade Organization.
- - - - - - - - - - Geneva, June 15, 2012 — Australia and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) today signed an agreement detailing how an AUD$2 million Australian contribution would assist least-developed and developing countries improve their intellectual property systems.

One of the hazards of being a One-Woman website is that if I get caught up in a family emergency, not much happens on the website until I get the family emergency under control. But one of the joys of being a One-Woman website is that I have some of the greatest and most patient and understanding bee-watcher readers around.
Anita Porterfield and her husband, John, first contacted me about their bee garden waaaaay back on July 6. Two and a half months later, I am proud to feature their garden as the 18th Official Certified Texas Bee-Friendly Garden.
Anita and John live on six acres of land just northeast of Boerne. According to Anita, they grow several hundred species of organic vegetables, herbs, and flowers. I can only imagine how the bees must love all those blossoms. In 15 years of owning their property, Anita and John have never used any chemicals either.
Anita passed on a list of some of the plants favored by the bees on their Shaggy Acres Farm (named after the Barbados Blackbelly sheep and Old English Sheepdogs also raised by the Porterfields).
Carolina Jessamine
Crape myrtle
Hibiscus, both hardy and non-hardy
Trumpet vine
Mexican hydrangea
Pomegranate bushes/trees
Morning glory
Because the Porterfields also grow organic vegetables, herbs, and flowers, Anita notes that the bees also favor "almost all annual vegetables and flowers, and herbs, especially sage, thyme, oregano, basil (especially Thai basil), mint, and celery. We currently have fennel in our garden which is new for us. The bees absolutely love it."
I certainly agree with her about the herbs. It is quite fun to let them flower and then watch the large numbers of bees which find and enjoy the blossoms.
Like several other Bee Watchers' Gardens, Shaggy Acres Farm is also certified as a Backyard Wildlife Habitat by the National Wildlife Federation. I also want to thank Anita for sending in the beautiful photos of bees and flowers from Shaggy Acres.
After a long wait by very patient Bee Watchers, I am proud to announce that Shaggy Acres Farm and Anita and John Porterfield are the owners of the 18th Official Certified Texas Bee-Friendly Garden. Welcome to Bee Watching!

Broadway to Richmond
As many of our friends know, Mac and I are huge fans of Broadway Theatre. Mac himself invested in two hit, Tony Award winning productions on Broadway: the revivals of SWEENEY TODD with Patti Lupone and COMPANY with Raul Esparza. It was very exciting for us to play a small role in bringing such exciting theatre to life. Of course, we will be watching the Tony Awards this Sunday night. Raul is nomintated a third time for a Tony award, and we are hoping he will win! He was fantastic in COMPANY, and we will never forget attending the Tony Awards that year at Radio City Music Hall. His rendition of BEING ALIVE from COMPANY still gives me goose bumps. Check it out on YouTube. It defines showstopper! Mac and I will be heading to NYC for a short vacation at the end of June. While Mac is not especially a fan of musicals (with the exceptions of SWEENEY TODD, COMPANY, and ironically, THE SOUND OF MUSIC!), we will be seeing the revivals of SOUTH PACIFIC and WEST SIDE STORY, which is my all time favorite musical! We are also supporters of our local theatres here in town, especially the Barksdale Theatre, the Firehouse Theatre, and Triangle Players. Each of these local theatres have staged plays as good as anything we have seen on Broadway, and we stand in awe of what they are able to achieve with limited budgets and spaces. Next time you are in Richmond, consider seeing a show at one of our local theatres.

Nice light weight oval linkJuly 15, 2011
I purchased these links to use in a chain necklace that I was making but found they were too small and looked a little fragile next to the larger beads, links and chains that I was using. They are sweet little links and I will probably utilize them in a pair of earrings where their smaller size would be a better fit.

"One of the major advantages of starting a business with a parent, as opposed to entering an existing family business, is that the older generation doesn't hold the `I know better' stick," says Fredda Herz Brown, managing partner of The Metropolitan Group LLC, a Leonia, New Jersey, family business consulting firm. As partners, both parent and child are expected to bring something of value--experience, contacts, skills, savvy--to the company.
For Karofsky, that "something" should also include money, which symbolizes shared risk. "If the parent brings money, the adult child should also make a financial contri-bution--though it needn't be an equal amount," he says.
Still, it's not always easy to separate the parent from the partner. Especially during difficult times, partners can fall into what Robin Greenleaf calls "automatic default--the way you dealt with conflict with your parents when you were a child." How can you keep the relationship equal?
*Be clear on who brings what to the business. "Not only do parents and adult children need to respect the other's skills, experience and ability, they have to be clear about who is going to do what," says Karofsky.
- Use first names only. Symbolically, "Mom" is a deferential term. "I hate it when Rob tells someone on the phone `My mom will call you back,' " says Joan Fields, who, with her son, founded Synergy Realty Inc., a New York City firm specializing in commercial leasing. "When we're at work, we're both executives. I don't think of myself as Rob's mother then."
- Talk about difficult subjects. The senior member's retirement may be an issue traditional family businesses like to duck, but in a partnership, it should be clearly defined in a written partnership agreement.
- Minimize start-up risks. Learn as much as you can about business basics before and during a venture's early stages. "Take advantage of courses for entrepreneurs through colleges' continuing education programs and private organizations," says Leo Rogers, director of the George Rothman Institute of Entrepreneurial Studies at Fairleigh Dickinson University in Madison, New Jersey.
Being partners with a parent or adult child can be hard--even impossible--if you don't like and respect each other going in. "But it has enhanced and improved my already good relationship with my father," says Gregg Levin, to which father Barry responds, "It's a ball. It's a treat to think I'll be sharing the next 15 years with Gregg."

Blow the Whistle
The Informant! is based on the true story of Mark Whitacre, the highest-ranking corporate whistleblower in U.S. history, who exposed agri-industry giant Archer Daniels Midland's multi-national price-fixing conspiracy to the FBI.
The social action campaign for The Informant! examines the topic of whistle-blowing through webinars focused on business ethics, the role of government, protection for the public, and case studies of famous whistleblowers whose actions exposed corporate corruption or resulted in precedent-setting laws.

Adult birds show little fear of humans. In fact, in spring and summer when nesting begins, they have been known to pluck hairs from human heads to line their nest.
Cedar Waxwings form flocks of anywhere from 30 to 100. In rare cases, up to 1,000 have been found flocked together.
They are very polite when they eat. They eat in shifts. One group feeds first then moves out of the way as the next group comes in. This is the exact opposite of most birds, who may flock together to find food, but will compete vigorously once the food is found.

Oct 24 - Heritage Financial Corp. (Nasdaq: HFWA) and Washington Banking Company (Nasdaq: WBCO) have jointly announced the signing of a definitive agreement under which Heritage and Washington Banking will enter into a strategic merger to create one of the premier community banking franchises in Western Washington and the Pacific Northwest.
Based on financial results as of Sept. 30, 2013, the combined company will have approximately $3.3 billion in total assets, $2.9 billion in total deposits and $2.3 billion in total loans with 73 branch locations across Washington and Oregon from Bellingham, Wash., to Portland, Ore. On a pro forma basis, the combined company will rank 11th in deposit market share in Washington and be ranked 3rd in deposit market share among banks headquartered in Washington within the combined company's footprint. The combination will result in one of the largest bank mergers between two in-state Washington banks with a transaction valued at approximately $265.1 million.
"I am pleased to announce the combination of these two quality Washington community banks," said Brian Vance, president and CEO of Heritage Financial Corp. "Our respective organizations share a similar culture and approach to community banking which we believe will provide enhanced opportunities for the combined company to better serve our customers and communities and provide a rewarding experience for our employees. We welcome the Washington Banking employees and are honored to work with them as partners going forward." Vance continued, "Together we will be positioned to realize important synergies and be better positioned to benefit from future growth opportunities and generate enhanced financial performance for our shareholders."
Jack Wagner, president and CEO of Washington Banking Co., added, "We are very excited about this partnership between two of Western Washington's strongest community banks and we believe the combined company is better positioned for continued growth and success within our respective markets. The contiguous branch footprints along the I-5 corridor and complementary business models make this combination a natural fit."
Under the terms of the merger agreement, Washington Banking shareholders will receive 0.89000 shares of Heritage common stock and $2.75 in cash for each share of Washington Banking common stock. Based on the closing price of Heritage common stock of $15.89 on Oct. 23, 2013, the consideration value per share for Washington Banking was $16.89, or approximately $265.1 million in aggregate. On consummation, the shareholders of Washington Banking will own approximately 46 percent of the combined company and the shareholders of Heritage will own approximately 54 percent.
The leadership team of the combined company will be comprised of executives from both organizations. Brian Vance will serve as CEO with Jeff Deuel, Dave Spurling and Don Hinson from Heritage along with Bryan McDonald, Ed Eng, and Lynn Garrison from Washington Banking. Jack Wagner, current CEO of Washington Banking, will serve as a special advisor to the combined company. Additionally, the board of directors will be comprised of eight directors from Heritage and seven directors from Washington Banking. Tony Pickering, current chairman of Washington Banking will become chairman of the combined company at closing with Brian Charneski from Heritage serving as vice chairman.
Washington Banking branches will adopt the Heritage Bank name in all markets, with the exception of six branches in Whidbey Island markets which will continue to operate using the Whidbey Island Bank name. The corporate headquarters of the combined company will be in Olympia, Wash.
The merger is expected to be significantly accretive to the combined company's earnings per share in 2014 and thereafter, excluding one-time deal related expenses. Further, it is anticipated that the combined company's capital ratios will be well in excess of regulatory minimums and its tangible common equity ratio will be in excess of 9 percent.
The definitive agreement has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of Heritage and Washington Banking. The merger is subject to regulatory approvals, approval by Heritage and Washington Banking shareholders, and certain other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first half of 2014. The transaction is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes and Washington Banking shareholders are not expected to recognize any taxable gain or loss in connection with the share exchange to the extent of the stock consideration received.
D.A. Davidson & Co. served as financial advisor and provided a fairness opinion to Heritage, and Breyer & Associates PC and Silver, Freedman & Taff, L.L.P. served as legal counsel to Heritage. Sandler O'Neill + Partners, L.P. served as financial advisor and provided a fairness opinion to Washington Banking, and Lane Powell PC served as legal counsel to Washington Banking.

It's Official: Kimmel and Silverman No Longer "F***ing"
Sad news for comedy and monogamy fans: late night talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel and his girlfriend of five years, comedienne Sarah Silverman, have broken up.
With them, so has the faith of all those who believed—as we did—that their union was the binding force that kept Hollywood from exploding in a mass chain reaction of irony and sexual frivolity.
Kimmel's rep Lewis Kay and Silverman's rep Amy Zvi both confirmed that Jimmy and Sarah are no longer dating and issued a joint statement that "Jimmy and Sarah have and will have no further comment."
Reps for Matt Damon and Ben Affleck had no comment on the breakup. (Primarily because they weren't contacted.)

|A Generational Approach to Modelling Youth's Engagement in Politics
|Suchowerska, Roksolana
Department of Sociology and Social Policy
|Issue Date:
|Youth in contemporary Anglo-Saxon democracies are less engaged in politics than their adult counterparts. To explain why, this study adopts a generational approach to modelling youth's engagement in politics. Contemporary youth are characterised by progressive individualist values of democratisation and individualism that respond to the instability and uncertainty of late modernity. Linear regressions are used on datasets extracted from the World Values Survey for four study countries – Australia, the USA, Britain and New Zealand. The results show that the conventional civic engagement model no longer explains why contemporary youth are statistically less engaged in politics than adults. The index of progressive individualism developed in this study, however, does diminish the impact of age in determining variation in political engagement. Although further research is needed to confirm progressive individualism is a generational characteristic of contemporary youth, this study advocates for increased flexibility in the practice of politics to reflect the lived experience of young citizens in late modernity.

Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
Assalamu alaikum everyone!
So I've been working and praying on increasing my faith and working towards better understanding everything, and I feel much better, alhamdulillah.
But, I've been having a hard time understanding this concept of being a "slave" to God. My first reaction is one that seems a little arrogant, and my next is one of just not really understanding what this concept is.
Also, while some of the sisters have explained to me the idea of obedience to one's husband, this one hits a bigger road block in my heart. Honestly, my belief is that in a marriage both husband and wife are equal, and both of their opinions and concerns should be taken with equal respect. My lack of knowledge makes it seem like it's putting women down, so that's why I'm looking to all of you for clarification.
Thank you!

Re: Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
Waalaykum salaam warahmatullah wabrakaatuh
It's a shame no one responded to your question.
Think about it this way perhaps:
Every human being is a slave to something in this world. Even if someone does not believe in God, and does not want to be the slave of God, they will automatically become a slave to something else. Most people are slaves to money. Others are slaves to their desires, and they spend their whole lives trying to full all of them and as much as they can. Others are literally slaves to other human beings, like when we see people bowing down to kings, and other tyrants. All of these kinds of slavery I just mentioned are oppressive. Striving and struggling just to make money in this life and then dying is oppressing yourself. Similarly being enslaved to your desires is oppressing yourself as well, as you will most likely harm yourself and others to fulfill them. Being enslaved by a king, or another unjust ruler, is also oppression.
So, when we say that we are slaves to God, we don't mean the types of slavery just mentioned which are the true forms of slavery. Rather, we believe that slavery to God is actually liberation from these other types of slavery. It is the real freedom. When we are a slave to God, he is not looking to use us for his own benefit like the capitalist system, our ego, and kings and tyrants would use and abuse us in the other types of slavery. God is not in need from us, and he does not want anything from us except to worship him so that he can forgive us and have mercy on us and so that he can reward us with paradise. When you think about it that way, then you realize that slavery to God is liberation and a mercy.

Re: Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
asalaamu alaykum. Being a 'slave' to God means to do what He says without questioning Him. Yet we know God is Caring for His slaves so whatever He commands us is good for us even if we don't know the wisdom. About the HUSBAND and wife relationship, the male loves *Respect*, so the wife listens to what he says, and a natural result is that he CARES for her and Adores her (which she craves for.) Islam therefore provides the perfect cycle in marriage. (She *Respects* him, and he then feels *Care/Adoration/Love* for her. So he loves her more, and then she Respects him more. This continuously increases love in the marriage.)

Re: Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
Just to add to this, Islaam teaches the husband to consult the wife and attaches value to her advice, as we saw in the famous example of the Prophet of Allaah (no less) at Hudaybiyyah.
As for the overall leadership of the household, this is given to the husband, but with it comes greater responsibility and more questioning by Allaah. And let's face it, the less we are questioned by Allaah, the better!
From da'wah experience you will often see non-Muslims get hung up on the issue of male leadership of the household, because they only see things in terms of this world. So if someone has apparent advantage in this world, to a non-Muslim this becomes the ultimate success and they assume that there is inequality and discrimination against the one who is apparently less priviliged.

Re: Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
Asalaamu Alaikum,
Being a slave of God is a blessing. Everyone is a slave of something, for example, would you rather be a slave to a society instead? Where you have no choice who your parents are, no choice of your social class, of your environment etc. All which end up shaping you to become what you are to be. People are so concious of how others will judge them that it leads them to ensure that they keep up with the latest looks, fashion, way of life and so on.
With Islam, it completely free's you from that notion, that nothing can dictate who you are or what you do except for the one who Created you, the one to whom you will one day return to, and Inshallah, be rewarded by. And it is a understanding that whatever the Lord has decreed for you, whatever rules He has placed for you, is always for your own benefit.
"When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, Listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way." (The Noble Quran, 2:186)

Re: Concept of "Slave" and "Obedience" in Islam
Alhamdulillah, that's good news.
The concept of 'worship' in Islam is a very broad one. It doesn't simply mean to bow down to something. Worship is an act of the heart as much as it is an act of the limbs. The more you learn about this beautiful concept, the more you will understand the term 'slave' as it is meant in an Islamic sense. In a simplified way: whatever occupies the highest part and the largest portion of your heart, then it's probably safe to say you're a slave to that thing. Whether it's a concept, a being, an object - whatever.
Also, when we say that mankind in general are slaves to Allah, we are just stating a fact. Whether or not a person wants to accept it doesn't change it. We've all been created by Allah and we will all be brought to judgement when He wills, whether we like it or not. Then He will put us where He wants to put us - Paradise or Hell. We have no control over any of it except what He has offered us: Do good and I'll give you eternal reward.
That is slavery. We're all His property and we owe everything to Him, and He controls our fate. It's just a fact.
Sister, I think if you continue to have patience and learn, these things will be cleared up, in sha Allah. We grew up being fed modern-day bogus concepts of 'equality' and 'freedom' which don't add up to reality nor are they true to their names, anyway. But it takes time to actually realize this... and rest assured most of us went through the same exact thing.
May Allah grant you the correct guidance.

Wait! Don't Spend $100′s even $1000′s of Dollars To Fix Your Leaky Gut!
I Will Show You How You Can Do It For Less Than $40!
Here's the thing.
You can spend hundreds, if not, thousands of dollars going to doctors, chiropractors, nutritionist, functional medicine practitioners and alternative healers of all sorts to cure your leaky gut …..or, you could do-it-yourself for only 40 bucks.
That is what I am doing and you can follow along with me as I show you how you can cure your leaky gut with proper diet and some necessary supplements to put your gut back to optimum health.
My Story
I have had celiac disease for over 20 years. I only discovered the problem 12 years ago when a friend told me to look it up on the internet.
I did and because the symptoms being described were so accurate to what I was experiencing, I immediately went gluten free.
Now, at that time, there were not a lot of doctors who were familiar with celiac (there are more now) and, since I am a consummate do-it-yourselfer, I didn't need to pay a doctor to diagnose me.
I worked hard to remove all traces of gluten from my diet and I felt 100% better.
That lasted for awhile. But, after the death of someone close to me and the stress and toll that that experience took on my body, I was no longer functioning at 100%.
It seemed that no matter what I ate, I had gluten type reactions including all the bad bowel symptoms, the flu-like symptoms, poor sleeping patterns, skin rashes, etc.
Add to that the issue that my thyroid was all out of whack and I was feeling pretty miserable.
At that point, I saw an ad by a local chiropractor that claimed he could fix my thyroid with diet and supplements.
I went to this guy and learned a lot in the first consultation. The two very important things that I learned from him was that I might have something called a "intestinal permeability", a.ka. "leaky gut"…….and I learned that I could pay him, literally, thousands of dollars for him to "guide" me on a program that would cure my leaky gut.
Well, I don't know about you but I don't have thousands of dollars to pay someone to "guide" me when I am perfectly capable to do my own research and find out the best options for me…not for some guy who was making big bucks off people who are in serious medical distress.
It was then that I found what I needed.
A COMPLETE Leaky Gut Cure Protocol For Less Than $40
Through my extensive research, I found a do-it-yourself option for learning how to repair my gut on my own without a huge expense. Since it is only $40 for the program material and not thousands of dollars (or even hundreds), for me, this was a no-brainer.
For only 40 bucks I got all the materials in pdf form which includes 10 books full of information and questionnaires that I used to determine what I, personally, need to do for my leaky gut situation. This material is comprehensive and meant to allow me to tailor the program to me personal needs and metabolism type.
This is EXACTLY what you want. A program that you can tailor to who you are, what you need and how YOU can best implement your own leaky gut cure!
One thing that I do want you to know, up-front, is that you will need to purchase supplements for different stages of the leaky gut protocol. Food and diet alone just aren't enough to fix your gut, get rid of parasites and candida and keep your digestive tract working at optimal conditions.
And, while these supplements are not cheap, they are crucial to y our success so, please, don't let this stop you.
I chose my personal leaky gut cure for two reasons:
1. It comes in printed format (downloadable pdf's) and is more comprehensive than anything else I looked at including 100′s of websites with tons of info. Having all the information in one place is a life-saver when it comes to putting the material together is such a way that I could follow the program on my own and not get off track.
2. The person who designed the program is willing to put the information out there for people at a reasonable cost. She has a good heart and she applied her knowledge as a nutritionist to herself to cure her own leaky gut before she branched out to provide the information to others.
Now, this means something to me.
I like knowing that she had the same problems that I have had and that she took initiative and learned how to heal herself BEFORE she put together the material so that others could do the same!
So, HERE IT IS……
If you want to get the most comprehensive, well-designed, safe and effective leaky gut cure program, then go directly to this website now and get started healing your leaky gut!
To Your Good Health!

Eva Zuckerman, the jewelry designer behind Eva Fehren, creates pieces that are at once edgy and refined, tough and delicate, and as original as they are wearable (which is to say, highly).
The designer also professes to be "obsessed with gold." Only fitting then, that we joined forces with the kind folks at Love Gold for an afternoon visit to Zuckerman's Brooklyn abode (which also serves as a studio space) to see where the ideas behind her collection take shape.
Exposed brick, industrial elements and minimal furnishings combine to form the perfect backdrop for Zuckerman's detailed black and white paintings, works of art that live alongside her jewelry as a testament to the methodical research and conceptual artistry behind Eva Fehren.
* * *
"As you can see, my art and my jewelry are very interconnected. I mix them all together to create balance for myself… and I do the same with my personal style. I always like to wear something textured or "ruined" (like these paint-splattered leggings that I wear when I paint) to offset my jewelry or a sophisticated piece of clothing. It's not about what you wear–it's about how you wear it. There has always been something very cool to me about a woman who can wear a beat-up t-shirt or a ripped pair of jeans with handful of fine jewelry. It's an interesting juxtaposition that resonates with me."
EVA FEHREN Champagne Diamond & Yellow Gold X Ring
EVA FEHREN Black Diamond & Gold X Ring
"The X ring was the first piece that I designed as part of the collection years ago. I really wanted to make something that felt perfect to me. When I finally mastered this design, I felt I was really ready to launch the collection. This ring is perfectly symmetrical, and can be worn in any direction. It remains a symbol of my design aesthetic and my brand, even as the collection evolves and grows."
"I think the X is such a simple classic shape. It is easy to wear multiple and mix and match them with the other geometric rings in the collection. I'm finding that my customers are collecting two, three or four X rings to wear on every finger. To me, the X is a perfect shape."
EVA FEHREN Diamond Auto Ring
"This zigzag shape has become a staple in my collection. It was originally inspired by the gears in a machine or the teeth of a zipper. I love the zipper bands because they stack and fit together perfectly. The motif adds sharpness and edge to a classic shape."
assorted eva fehren earrings
"I try to create pieces of jewelry that can be stacked and worn together. I want the woman who buys my jewelry to be able to create her own story with it, and even to integrate Eva Fehren pieces with other pieces that they own. I love piling up my earrings to create a unique landscape with the jewelry. It's important to me that the jewelry looks cool, young and a bit tough, while still being extremely high quality and classic enough that the styles will remain relevant for years to come. These dagger earrings are just that for me–very delicate and feminine but still a little mean."

call 212.826.8900
eva fehren fringe necklace
call 212.826.8900
"I'm very inspired by my native New York City and Art Deco art, architecture and jewelry. The Chrysler necklace is my homage to New York City. I am so inspired by the beauty of this city and also the grit and roughness of it. This necklace captures that same spirit for me, with the sharp angular facets of the black diamond beads alongside the sleek rose gold spikes."
eva fehren arrow bracelet
call 212.826.8900
"The Arrow bracelet is one of my absolute favorites in the collection. I love a hinged bracelet, and this was my take on the classic diamond bangle. We set the diamonds traditionally, as well as upside down. I often use inverted diamonds–it feels like an irreverent treatment of a traditional, high-end material."
EVA FEHREN Rose Gold Beveled X Pendant Necklace
"I love this photo. The Mini X pendant, the X necklace, the Saber pendant, the Apex and the Propeller necklace are all layered over one of my recent paintings. Painting and jewelry are two sides of the same coin of who I am as a person; one always informs the other and both pursuits are always evolving side by side."

The photos don't show an apparatus capable of those numbers by fraudulent means; the reported effect was much too big to be noise or a measurement artifact; and those Swede physicists don't look like they just fell off the rutabaga truck on the way into town.
Which suggests that either it's real, or it's outright criminal fraud using software on the laptop to feign the monitoring of an effect that didn't exist.

I've been studying nonverbal communication for over 30 years, with a special emphasis on skill in nonverbal communication. I've seen books and courses that purport to teach you how to read someone's body language "like a book." Well, sorry to inform you that body language - nonverbal communication - is fantastically complex, and there is no dictionary that you can use to translate (or else Frommer's or Rosetta Stone would be selling them). You can, however, get better at reading ("decoding") nonverbal cues, but it's not all that easy, but here's how.
First, what does the research say? There are some published studies, and a handful of dissertations, that have tried to train people in nonverbal communication, and although some show statistically significant improvement, the changes are underwhelming. Most likely the problem is that these trainings are relatively brief - often a single session, or a week-long training - not enough time to see real improvement.
Another problem with these studies is the motivation of the trainees. The typical participants are college students who may be more concerned about fulfilling their experimental credit, or making a few bucks, than actually learning to become a better nonverbal communicator.

Love it!. . . . .
I've been looking for a pizza stone, and I was excited to see one at Ten Thousand Villages! It comes with very clear directions for the care and use of the pizza stone. I tried it out, and it works great--you get that really nicely cooked pizza crust that I could never manage on a regular baking pan. It's a little on the small side, but I'm okay with that because I can make more pizzas and try more topping combinations. Also, the pizzas cook so quickly (about 3 minutes in my oven) that you can get several pizzas ready for dinner before the first one cools off too much. I'm excited to try rolls on the stone, too!

text: 4 I'd buy that for a tenner!!trevsaid | 09/03/2008 | See all trevsaid's reviews (6)Great film Robocop. I remember when i first watched it, aged eight. My older brother had rented it with his mates, i remember he dragged me into the front room when mum was out and showed me ED209 blowing that executive to bits.I was shaken, i was disturbed. Before my brother took it back, i watched it from start to finish with my mates, and the next day we were running around the playground playing robocop, blowing limbs off, stealing, play smoking, swearing. But thats the appeal to kids, the ultraviolence.Having grown, i now look back at the film with a fresh eye, and it hasn't dated. The look is good, the atmosphere of a decaying city struggling to become something it never will, the witty screenplay, the adverts and news reports setting the pace.Robocop works on so many levels that it will always be right up there in my top 20 films of all time. Which is why i give this boxset a 4* rating. Robocop is a 5* movie, 2 and 3 on the other hand arent.Its the same old story of cashing in on sequels that get progressively worst, the third a damn site milder as they now try to cash in on teenage market having realised that the biggest fanbase this movie has is not the sci-fi buffs, but the kids, hence the TV series, hence the Cartoon, hence the toys.But having said that, to have all three in a box set at such a great price is worth it, even if it is to only own the first one really.
