NAA 22 Short ballistics?
I have a 22 short NAA mini revolver. I bought it more as a novelty but I admit that at the gym I do carry it (I can't hide anything bigger that I own).
Any way today I have been thinking if its really any good or if it would just make someone mad. I decided to shoot it over a chronograph. I am averaging about 730 FPS (give or take) with a 29 grain .22 caliber round nose HV bullet. So if I was to shoot something with it what would it do? Would it break the skin? Would be be potentially lethal? I know its probably the weakest round you can commonly buy.
Im talking for near point blank range.
Shot placement is everything! I would rather take a round of 50BMG to the foot than a 22short to the base of the skull.
all 25 of my guns are 45/70 govt, 357 mag, 22 or 12 ga... I believe in keeping it simple

Of course it would break the skin!
The little short can be a very deadly round-if you do your part.

So I was looking online and could not find any ballistic gel tests. I did read that Robert Kennedy may have been killed with a 22 short but also readying it was a 22 long.

Any gun is better than none, I suppose, but I have serious doubts about using a 30 grain bullet at 750 fps for defense.
A .38 spcl 158gr. Round nose at 750 fps will bounce off of a human skull more often than not unless at an ideal angle, ask Jim Cirillo.
I doubt that .22 short will make it through the kind of muscles you might find in a gym....and into vitals. Muscle is dense
At the risk of sounding cliche'd,
Yea...a 30 grain bullet at 750 fps is more likely to further tick off some roid raging muscle head than stop them. I predict a complete lack of penetration and mild, shallow, non life threatening, non incapacitating wounds. Those are .22 caliber pellet gun ballistics.
Yes, it's lethal under perfect circumstances...but those are hard to come by in a SD shooting. If a body shot won't incapacitate, and the round doesn't have the penetration to get to the CNS, the gun is pretty much for show.
I feel the phrase "shot placement" is problematic to apply here. A revolver the size of your thumb ain't exactly precise.
If you do happen to end up shooting someone in the base of the skull with a contact shot to get the job done,
It might be tough explaining that one off as SD.
Take a piece of wet leather and drape it over a raw pot roast, shoot it, and compare the penetration to some of the pecs you see at the gym! Or shoot at a 1/4" thick plastic cutting board as a surrogate skull to see if it has the penetration to make a stopping CNS hit.

I'll take a 29 gr bullet a 730 fps over my fists and a sweaty towel, any day.
You need to put holes in people to stop them, and that load will do more than most people give it credit for.

Actually, I think a towel used correctly could be a better weapon against an unarmed attacker than a 22 short revolver.
I've had .22lr out of a Taurus pt22 bounce off a raccoons skull. I also know from experience that a boiler room shot with a .22 rifle on a coyote is likely to have no visible effect for quiet some time before it dies.
I'd get a bigger gun and find a way to conceal it rather than relying on a gallery round handicapped by a minuscule barrel to get the job done.
You need to do more than just make holes to stop someone. You need to make them either bleed out (could take a long time, big arteries and veins are deep, and big holes bleed more) or make a CNS hit (instantaneous but you have to get to through tissue and bone first)
The .22 short doesn't have the penetration to reliably do either even with ideal hits. Even a .22lr is marginal at actually stopping people.

I do know from first hand experience that a HV .22 short will penetrate ONE sidewall of a truck tire.
It wasn't fired from an NAA, though; It was a Beretta 950BS with a 4" barrel.

I've deleted a post about the 22S for being technically and tactically incorrect. I saw no reason to divert the conversation to what would be a litany of corrections.
If you have experience with the gun to answer the OP, please do - otherwise spare us wild speculations and mistaken info.

I think just the gun being in your face will put a subject into a different thought processes. They wont know if its a 22S or 45acp, they just know they dont want to get shot. A 22S to the eye socket will do the job plus once the gun goes off everyone will hear it and it may or may not generate help. In the end any gun is better than no gun, I have the NAA 22mag & 22LR guns but no 22S yet, I want to add one to my collection to be the smallest gun I own.

I read that taking a 22LR pulling the bullet and replacing it with a 22 caliber lead ball allows the round to fit and have decent velocity. But then you are only looking at 15 grains and if you ever use it the cops may not like you using altered ammo.
Shot placement is everything! I would rather take a round of 50BMG to the foot than a 22short to the base of the skull.

Try shooting a soda can with that 22 short (not CB) and see what you think. They shoot a 2-lite bottle of water and see what you think. It should give you some reference points.

I also have one and with the remington HV bullets it will completely penetrate a water filled 1 gallon milk jug. I am not sure how it would do on flesh but I know I would not want to be shot with it.

I fired a few shorts out of the LR cylinder for my magnum frame NAA. No, I don't want to get shot with it. It has been said by others elsewhere: shoot a phonebook or piece of wood with a .22 short. Now stab it with a Philips screwdriver of the same diameter. How does your stabbing compare wrt penetration?

I wouldn't want to get shot with a .22 Short out of an NAA, but I'd have to wonder if it's worth the hassle to carry it at the gym.
If you're going to go up against someone with that, you're going to have to get really close. And if someone strolls in and starts shooting the place up with a proper weapon, the odds of you being able to get close enough are pretty slim.
If it floats you boat, go for it, but I wouldn't waste my time with it.

These ballistics are not pellet gun ballistics Which are (in my country) 550ft/sec with a .22 16 gr pellet. The stopping power of the 22 in question is I agree very low. However I calculate it would penetrate about 13" of ballistic Gel if there was no bullet expansion. According to my notes a .22 16.5gr pellet needs 245ft/sec to penetrate skin and.355 round nose 113gr bullet needs 190ft/sec.
An alternative penetration formula give 11.8". Still good enough to make your eyes water

3. Tell students that heat can also cause burns. Review the burn prevention tips below:
- Tell a grown-up if you find matches or lighters.
- Stay out of the kitchen when adults are cooking on the stovetop.
- Do not touch hot irons, toasters, or curling irons.
- Have an adult check the water temperature of the bath before you get in.
- Keep three feet of empty space around space heaters and fireplaces.
4. Display the Classroom Poster in an easy-to-see location. Distribute copies of the Student Comic and allow time for students to read it.
5. Distribute copies of the Sparky News Worksheet. Allow time for students to complete the activity. Tell students that as editors for Sparky News, they will compile a news story based on the poster and comic book. A news story includes facts that answer the questions who, what, when, and where.

Glenn Pereira purchased this villa in 2004
Wanted a place that is warm during UK winter time and in a nice environment, not too commercial but offering an eco friendly environment on land and at sea.
The villa is high up so benefits from cool breezes and stunning views. The lot on the pool side has never been built on so the pool and deck offer wonderful privacy.
Our stay at the Eternity Villas was fabulous . The place was very comfortable, peaceful and clean . My kids had a blast . I would recommend this villa to anyone.
Eternity Villa is situated in one of the most beautiful spots in Tobago, on a hill in the sought after Mount Irvine area overlooking the famous golf course and with stunning views of the Caribbean. Beaches are close by, as are all basic amenities, and ecological walks are within a reasonable driving distance. On one side live (almost) permanent neighbours with their dogs providing additional security. The plot on the pool deck side of the villa has not been developed, thereby providing absolute privacy for swimming and sunbathing as well as enjoying those evening cocktails.

Golf: Eternity Villa overlooks the Mount Irvine golf course and the gate at the bottom of the garden provides direct access to it. The clubhouse is a 2-minute drive away. Another excellent golf course, Tobago Plantations, is around 10 minutes drive from the villa.

French socialist victory is a disaster for Europe, but typical of our times
Both contestants were appalling, but France now signals the path to oblivion
It was always a case of one disastrous candidate or another. Sarkozy's greatest achievement was to have spent much of his utterly wasted presidency under the shadow of Silvio Berlusconi. Why? Because otherwise, Sarkozy's claim to be the Clown of Europe could not have been disputed.
Although we have no love for the euro, newly elected President Francois Hollande has also suggested he will work against the deficit reducing austerity policies that have been the only ideas holding the single currency from total collapse.

Rattling started in Texas and has spread across the country with mixed success.
In well managed areas with a low doe-to-buck ratio, bucks must truly compete for available does, and rattling and other forms of deer calling are more effective. In areas where there are too many does, bucks are less competitive; basically, with so many does around, the bucks don't have to fight.
Timing also is a factor. The most competitive periods associated with the rut are the immediate pre- and post-rut periods. Both rattling and calling work best during those times. However, even at the peak of the rut, a buck without a doe can be vulnerable to rattling and calling.

Bryan Eisenberg | February 28, 2003 | Comments
A systematic approach to the multitude of variables that impact your bottom line.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to respond to last week's challenge. About 85 percent of you did not correctly identify the offending variable in the case study. Seventy percent thought it was one of the many variables they noticed between Test A and Test B. Here's a list of all the variables visible on the page:
Remember, the goal was to bring the conversion rate back to where it was before the "improvements" started. When nine variables change at once, how can you determine which were effective? Only one? A combination? Did some of changes improve the conversion rate, only to be overwhelmed by others that made a negative impact? This is hardly a systematic method to measure, test and optimize.
The bigger question is, how do you get the conversion rate back over 4.6 percent -- fast? Should time be spent testing each of the nine variables? That would work -- if we had nine weeks.
Should they watch users and hope they articulate what hampered their motivation to buy? Users are rarely this insightful.
This is when customer psychology insight and experience pay off. The following test increased the conversion rate back to 4.9 percent. The offending variable was Number 6, the "Enter Coupon Code" field on Test A.
One of last week's respondents, Jill Whalen, got it right. As she expressed, "When I've seen these on sites, I wonder how I can get that discount too. I don't like having to pay full price knowing there's some way for me to get a discount I don't know about."
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Don't jump to the conclusion couponing on a site is a bad thing. It depends what sort of site you have and what business you're in. On this site, this one small change accounted for a 1,000 percent increase in volume.
There are thousands of such variables on your site. Some have a major impact; some are only incremental. Ones that work for your widget business may not work for your brother's whatzit business. This applies whether your site targets consumers (B2C) or businesses (B2B).
Identify these variables. Systematically measure, test and optimize. Have a system in place to categorize and account for each test and its result. Sometimes, a change will move your conversion rate only a bit. That doesn't mean your choice of variable had no impact. It could mean your choice of solution had no impact. Test, test, test!
To approach this methodically, have someone around whose sole responsibility is conversion. According to a Wall Street Journal special report, only 53 percent of online retailers use conversion rate to gauge the success of their sites. With so much of the bottom line dependent on the conversion rate, it's amazing less than half of online companies take the time and effort to measure it. It's the exception, not the rule, to devote trained personnel to the task.
Dell Computer Corp. is one of those exceptions. Sam Decker, senior manager of Dell's Consumer eBusiness (you may remember I mentioned him last week), created such a role, appointing a point person for a product line's success on the Web. Sam spoke last year at the eTail conference. "The Web producer is the champion for metrics like conversion rates, and the hub for cross-functional projects to improve that measure," he said. "That person coordinates metric analysis, content developers and product marketers. The idea of giving someone ownership of that measure is powerful."
InterVideo's Ron Mayer elaborates:
"It's interesting how a few words changed or a few sentences moved can make a big difference on what products people look at and choose on a Web site. Unless that messaging is in control of the people with sales responsibility, it's all too easy to have messaging that focuses people's attention away from whatever you want them to buy.
"It's amazing to me how many times you'll get marketing groups responsible for attracting unique users to a Web site; corporate communication people writing copy for the Web site; and an e-commerce store that's put up as an afterthought."
For over two years, I've been asking readers if they knew any companies with one person directly responsible for the sales effectiveness of the company Web site. Obviously, Dell is one and this is part of their winning formula.
Does your company have that employee yet?

A funny thing happened on the freshman sitcom EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND (CBS, Mondays, 8:30-9 p.m.) this year. It got better. No small feat, considering the fate of this season's other most promising pilots: Spin City stumbled badly and took several months to regain its footing, while Millennium immediately imploded. (Suddenly Susan, the season's highest-rated new series, stank from the start.) Yet Ray Romano's family comedy didn't just grow funnier it grew deeper.
What started as a likably witty distillation of Romano's stand-up act the travails of a dad with three kids under the age of 6 transformed itself into a fascinatingly humane portrait of suburban dysfunction. In fact, Raymond may now be the best sitcom on the air its only real creative competition being NewsRadio (ironically, a show from which Romano who'd been cast as an engineer was fired during the pilot taping).
The series' setup is simple: Sportswriter Ray Barone (Romano) lives on Long Island with his stay-at-home wife (Patricia Heaton) and their three preschoolers (Madylin, Sullivan, and Sawyer Sweeten) right across the street from his squabbling folks (Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts) and obsessive-compulsive cop brother, Robert (Brad Garrett). At first, this premise lent itself to predictable complications: The elder Barones always barged in unannounced, and Robert was constantly mooching. Yet as the season progressed, Raymond became more about the struggle of a grown man trying to separate from his parents and establish his own family.
Raymond is the rarest of sitcoms one with a genuinely original point of view. In the show's new-and-improved opening-credits sequence, Ray's family goes by on a conveyor belt, and, as his children pass, he assures viewers the show is ''not really about the kids.'' Refreshingly, it's not. This is life seen through the eyes of one man as he attempts the near-impossible task of simultaneously fulfilling the roles of husband, father, brother, and son.
It's a brilliantly realized vision, thanks to Raymond's remarkable cast. Like Garry Shandling and Jerry Seinfeld, Romano does such subtle work that it appears as if he's not even acting. His voice a thick, nasal whine initially sounds shticky, yet he uses it like a finely tuned instrument, sliding from elation to frustration with only the slightest tonal change.
As wife Debra, Heaton matches Romano beat for beat. She's taken the role's inherent thanklessness the still center around which Ray's crazy family revolves and turned it into a virtue. Debra rails against her status as ''the normal one,'' recently launching into a tirade that allowed Heaton to do dead-on impressions of the eccentric Barones. And old pros Boyle and Roberts have created the most realistically fractious TV marriage since Archie and Edith Bunker's.
Raymond's secret weapon, though, is the towering Garrett (left). As Ray's eternally unlucky sibling, he has developed a wonderful chemistry with Romano. One charming episode, in which Ray gave his brother a stray bulldog, expertly utilized Garrett's extra-large talents. Underneath that imposing exterior beats the heart of a puppy.
Garrett isn't the only stand-up whom Romano has put to good use. Cathy Ladman (as a nosy neighbor) and Andy Kindler and Dave Attell (as Ray's basketball teammates) have scored in guest spots. And some of Raymond's best scripts have been penned by Lew Schneider, a wry comic who starred in the underrated 1990 CBS series Wish You Were Here.
Originally stranded on Fridays with the inexplicably not-dead Dave's World, Raymond has skyrocketed in the ratings since CBS moved it to Mondays after Cosby. The network would be wise not only to renew it but to leave it where it is. With his winning mix of heart and humor, Romano seems the natural heir to Cos' sitcom-dad throne. A

Topic Outline
Carbamazepine has been used for many years for the treatment of both partial and generalized seizures, as well as trigeminal neuralgia. It has also been used as a mood stabilizer and for treatment of neuropathic pain syndromes.
In 2010, the American Association of Poison Control Centers reported 4282 toxic exposures to carbamazepine [1]. Of these, 2248 were reportedly isolated ingestions. Among the 1489 patients who sought treatment, there was one death and 538 patients who experienced moderate or major toxicity [1].
The toxicology, diagnosis, and management of acute carbamazepine poisoning are discussed here. The clinical use of carbamazepine and chronic complications related to its use are reviewed separately. (See "Overview of the management of epilepsy in adults" and "Overview of the treatment of seizures and epileptic syndromes in children" and "Overview of antiepileptic drugs".)
Carbamazepine interacts with multiple receptors and ion channels. Its therapeutic effect results from binding to sodium channels in their inactivated state, which inhibits neuron depolarization and decreases glutamate release [2]. It is also anticholinergic, a property that is more relative in overdose than the therapeutic setting [3]. (See "Anticholinergic poisoning".)
In carbamazepine toxicity, sodium channel blockade may manifest as cardiovascular toxicity, particularly prolongation of the QRS interval. This conduction abnormality predisposes patients to ventricular arrhythmias and hypotension [4].

This post is made on behalf of Nicholas Johnston, Senior Anti-Spam Engineer, Symantec Hosted Services.
Earlier today we saw a 419 or advance fee fraud scam claiming to be sent by Hassan Ali Abdul Mutallab, the brother of Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, who allegedly attempted to blow up Northwest Airlines flight 253 over Detroit on Christmas Day.
The message (see screenshot) has a subject of "Take my Salaam and respect", and the scammer purporting to be Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab's brother claims he is looking for a "Muslim brother/sister" to help retrieve funds belonging to the alleged bomber. Without replying to scammer it's impossible to be sure exactly how the scam works, but we have every suspicion that it operates like most 419 scams. Before the non-existent money can be released, various increasingly inventive fees and charges have to be paid. These fees continue until the victim of the scam eventually realizes that they have no chance of getting any money, and gives up. Victims are often too embarrassed to contact police, and the scammers continue.
The scam message also included a PDF attachment with the same content as the body of the email. The PDF appears to have been created with ordinary word processing software and there is nothing to suggest it is malicious. It has become increasingly common for scammers to attach their messages in PDF or other formats in an apparent (but ineffective) attempt to evade filters. It is unusual for scammers to attach a file and include the same content in the body of the mail - normally when attachments are used, the body of the mail simply contains "SEE ATTACHMENT" or similar.
This message shows how 419 scammers are skilled at using recent news events - particularly high profile ones such as this - to their advantage. After the alleged failed attack, it was widely reported that Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab had lived in his father's luxury London apartment, so perhaps scammers are hoping that some victims might have heard this and might therefore think it is plausible that Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab himself did indeed have a fortune stashed away.
Symantec Hosted Services has advanced technology to protect against 419 and other advance fee fraud scams.

In the old days, before Woot started charging $5 for every individual order I would have considered this because I would take a chance there are more items during the Woot Off that I will buy. Now this thing is not worth $5.49 plus tax. I can buy it on Amazon for $4.49, no tax or shipping

In a sure sign that the reality TV craze has hit its long-awaited slide, the formerly ubiquitous dating sub-genre might be down to its final rose. And yes, even The Bachelor is wilting. The once-hot ABC franchise is barely hanging on this season, with an audience of 8.5 million down nearly a third in total viewers from last season's average and less than half of the 17.6 million tuning in for its Wednesday night lead-in, Lost. The show's Survivor-meets-Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire? concept, which seemed so revolutionary when it debuted in the spring of 2002, feels downright quaint after an onslaught of imitators warped and twisted the premise. (That means you, Mr. Personality, Cupid, Married by America, The Littlest Groom...)
''There have been a lot of derivative series,'' says ABC executive vice president Andrea Wong. ''It hurts the genre.'' Original Bachelor Alex Michel concurs: ''I thought those other shows were entertaining, but it felt like it was harder to invest in them. The Bachelor is a little cheesy, but it really is about people looking for love.''
Still, like a Bachelor reject who won't go away, reality TV will stick around in some form. Its influence might even spread to scripted shows: Lost, one of this fall's biggest hits, is a distant cousin of Survivor a link that sometime romance-reality producer Bruce Nash (Outback Jack, For Love or Money) predicts more of. ''You might see it from me,'' he hints, ''taking what we've learned making reality television, and bringing it to the scripted world.''
In fact, Nash is doing just that, developing several hybrids much like Law & Order: Criminal Intent 's American Idol-inspired stunt in October (viewers voted on the fate of Olivia D'Abo's villainous Nicole Wallace). ''It could be part sitcom and part reality,'' says Nash. ''Or it could just use the conventions of reality TV, but it's scripted.''
So much for the Omarosas and Evan Marriotts of the world if Nash succeeds. A move away from straight-up reality would mean the return of stars and shows with life spans longer than 15 minutes. ''We look back so fondly at our old scripted shows,'' Nash says. ''Do you think we're going to be looking back on reality shows so fondly, running them on Nick at Nite?''
Perhaps not, but reality TV can increase its life expectancy by ditching ridiculous concepts and contrived spoofs (My Big Fat Obnoxious Whatever). ''When they look like skits on Saturday Night Live, that's when audiences say, 'You've gone too far and you're making fun of me for watching these things,''' says Bill Carroll, a media analyst for Katz Television Group. ''In a lot of variations on the theme, they're not only jumping the shark, they're holding on to it for dear life.''
Who knows? In the end, reality TV's slide (Extreme Makeover: Home Edition continues to build its audience, but only Survivor remains a top 10 fixture) might prompt the genre's most shocking twist yet: smarter shows. ''Networks haven't been developing shows and making sure they're first-rate,'' says Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss, whose The Real Gilligan's Island debuts on TBS Nov. 30. ''I'd like to go back to a world where good, original [reality] shows succeed. Let television Darwinism prevail!''

Abdominal surgery can encompass any type of surgical procedure involving one or more of the organs found in the abdominal region of the body. Some of these organs include the kidneys, liver, and appendix. Abdominal surgery may become necessary due to a traumatic injury or natural disease. There are three basic types of abdominal surgery. These procedures are known as an appendectomy, laparotomy, and laparoscopy.
An appendectomy is a common type of abdominal surgery involving the removal of the appendix. The usual reason for this type of abdominal surgery is inflammation of the appendix, commonly known as appendicitis. Occasionally, an appendectomy may be performed as an addition to another type of abdominal procedure. Recovery tends to be relatively quick after an appendectomy if the procedure is performed before the appendix ruptures. A ruptured appendix may require a longer hospital stay and extra monitoring by the medical team to make sure that complications do not arise after the surgery.
A laparotomy is an exploratory type of abdominal surgery. This procedure is performed in order to give the doctor a better idea of what may be causing a variety of abdominal symptoms. For example, a laparotomy may be performed to find the source of internal bleeding due to some sort of trauma, such as an automobile accident. Depending on the findings from this procedure, additional abdominal surgery may be necessary.
Laparoscopy is another common type of abdominal surgery, often used as a less invasive alternative than open surgery. In this procedure, several small holes are surgically made in the abdominal wall. Tubes are then inserted into these holes. A small camera is inserted into one of these tubes to allow the surgeon to see the contents of the abdominal cavity without having to use a larger incision. Small surgical instruments as well as gases used to assist in the procedure also travel through the tubes that have been placed into the abdomen.
A cholecystectomy, or gallbladder removal, is often performed using laparoscopic surgery. Various types of abdominal cyst removals may also be performed in this manner. This type of procedure greatly reduces the amount of time a patient must stay in the hospital following surgery, with many being able to return home the same day. Recovery time is also significantly reduced when laparoscopic surgery is chosen over the more invasive open surgery option.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Menu of Services
Sample the treatments that have made us famous in the area, all provided in the customized way that is Inspiration.
Oxygen Infusion Facial
Unlike other oxygen treatments that atomize or spray the skin, our Intraceutical Hyperbaric Oxygen System uses therapeutic oxygen under hyperbaric pressure to infuse a special serum of modified hyaluronic acid, essential vitamins, botanicals, antioxidants and amino peptides into the skin which helps the skin retain hydration and moisture. We create a visible result you see and feel. You'll walk away from your treatment with extremely hydrated and plumped up skin. We call this "The Star Treatment", because it is the treatment of choice for Stars & Supermodels such as Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Eva Longoria, Katy Perry and Justin Timberlake to name just a few. This treatment addresses a wide spectrum of skin conditions including: dehydrated and prematurely aging skin, sensitive skin, sun damage, brown spots, fine lines and wrinkles and also, acne prone skin.
|60 minutes
MicroPhototherapy Facial
This treatment uses light and heat energy that is safe and effective for most skin types. It clears pigmented lesions and homogenizes skin tone by emitting gentle pulses of light and heat to create a mild thermal injury beneath the skin's surface leading to fibroblast production and new collagen formation. The heat opens the pores, enhancing absorption of specialty creams and lotions. We use this technology for anti-aging as well as acne clearance. This is a highly effective treatment! There is no down time involved with this treatment. In fact, you will leave looking so vibrant that you may want to make sure you have some place to go to show off your new look. You can do this treatment alone or in combination it with our Oxygen Infusion Facial for even better and faster results.

Microdermabrasion with Collagen Veil
In the quest for youthful, vibrant skin, men and women share a common desire: to look their best regardless of age. Microdermabrasion as provided by Inspiration is a painless and affordable variety of what the medical practice has used for a long time. Instead of mechanical rotary dermabrasion, chemical peels, or laser skin resurfacing, we instead provide a much gentler treatment for your skin that typically has visible results after the first visit, though a series of treatments is most effective. Please ask for a free consultation with out lead esthetician to create a personalized plan customized for your needs.

I am growing more interested in Buddhism, and I am a forum junkie, so here I am. I have a Christian background, but one not too strong. I am attracted to Buddhism for peace of mind. Right now I am simply focusing on practicing meditation (learning from Mindfulness in Plain English), but I also ordered some books on Buddha, and the history of Buddhism (Old Path White Clouds, The Heart of Buddha's Teachings, and Gesture of Balance) to learn as much as I can.
I love reading, and I am a writer lacking an agent and published book.
Glad to be here!

I saw my first Coen Brothers movie, "Blood Simple," some weeks — maybe months — after it opened in January 1985. We tried to see it right off, at — if I recall correctly — Seattle's Uptown Cinema, but the lines were too long.
When was the last time you remember that happening in Spokane?
Anyway, it finally opened in Spokane, and so began my love affair with the Coens. It's been an up-and-down relationship. It's not as if I've liked everything they released (I didn't get "Barton Fink," and I still scratch my head at "Intolerable Cruelty"), but the best of their films rank among the best cinema produced in the last four decades. And they are among the select few filmmakers whose work I refuse to miss.
Which is why when Pete Porter, director of the Spokane International Film Festival, gave the "Movies 101" crew an opportunity to open this season's SpIFF-sponsored Professor's Series, we were happy to say yes. One, because we like SpIFF (I am one of the festival's programmers); two, because it gave us a chance to rescreen one of our favorite Coes Brothers films, "Fargo."
So, the facts: Mary Pat Treuthart, Nathan Weinbender and I will present "Fargo" at 7 p.m. next Wednesday at the Bing Crosby Theater. Tickets are $7 general admission, $5 for students. We each will give a short talk before the show, and we will moderate a post-screening discussion. All proceeds go either to the Bing or to SpIFF.
"Movies 101," just to remind you, is a Spokane Public Radio show Bob Glatzer and I cofounded in 1999. It was intended to be, and remains, a weekly look at the contemporary film scene. As the show developed, we added a roving third voice — until we settled on Mary Pat Treuthart as our permanent cohost (MP just happens to be my wife). When Bob passed away in 2010, Nathan Weinbender joined MP and me. And that, to this day, remains the show's standard lineup.
But we aren't the attraction. "Fargo" is. And I'm not alone in thinking that it just might be the best movie the Coen boys have managed to make. I hold a special fondness for "Raising Arizona," "Miller's Crossing," "The Big Lebowski" and, of course, "Blood Simple." But "Fargo" remains something special.
Join us on Wednesday and judge for yourself.

Let me introduce you to my second Doughnut Week contribution: Lemon Berry Doughnut Trifles! Ok, I admit that I may have gone off the beaten path with this recipes, especially considering the fact that it uses store bought doughnuts. But, if you're like me (which if you're here, I assume we have at least a few things in common) you sometimes want a dessert recipe that can be assembled in a short amount of time, but that's still special, a touch fancy and oh so scrumptious. Well, if any of that sounds good to you, then put these Lemon Berry Doughnut Trifles on your short list.
After Monday's round of doughnutty goodness, for which I contributed my Chai Spiced Dougnut Muffins, I'm taking a little help from the store and playing around with trifles. I can't seem to even think the word 'trifle' without saying in my head 'beef sautéed with peas and onions' and if your'e a fellow Friends fanatic – you know what I'm talking about.
Anyway, for these individual trifles, I wanted something bright and fruity, which was somewhat surprising because I typically lean toward rich, chocolatey treats. But then again, I'm all over anything with lemon. I'm a lemon lover, after all. By the way, did you see yesterday's Meyer Lemon Scones? Ugh, so good!
I'm definitely on pastry overload this week. Go big or go home, amiright?
Unfortunately, my jeans don't agree with that sentiment.
These little trifles were quick and simple to put together, with mini doughnuts, whipped topping, lemon curd and raspberries. In fact, my kiddos actually did all the heavy lifting. It's fun having recipes that they can very easily help out with, and layering ingredients into a cup or mason jar is right up a preschooler's alley.
And then they inhaled them. It may have been that the kids made the trifles themselves or the fact that I was letting them eat doughnuts before lunch, but I like to think it was because the trifles simply tasted delightful. Delightful, indeed.
Thanks to the lovely Carrie and Brandy, us Doughnut Weekers have another fantastic giveaway for you today, and this time it's from Cabot, King Arthur Flour and Red Star Yeast! Even better, this giveaway will have 3 lucky winners! So, be sure to enter using the widget below and don't forget to hop around to today's other decadent doughnut recipes! (links below)

Happy Wednesday!
Lemon Berry Doughnut Trifle RecipeJanuary 15th, 2014
Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:1 cup of thawed whipped topping, divided1/2 cup of lemon curd (homemade or store bought), room temperature8 mini doughnuts (I used powdered sugar, but chocolate would be delicious, too!)1/2 pint of fresh raspberries
In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup of whipped topping and lemon curd until completely combined. Gather the rest of your ingredients to form an assembly line.
Place one mini doughnut in the bottom of 4 mason jars. Top each doughnut with a scoop of the lemon curd mixture. Place about 5 raspberries on top of the lemon curd and add a spoonful of whipped topping. Repeat this layering one more time and top with one more raspberry. Eat, repeat and enjoy!
Notes:I used my favorite vintage glasses for these, but they also fit perfectly into 1/2 pint mason jars. The nice thing about making them in mason jars is that you can make them ahead of time, pop the lid on and stick them in your fridge until you're ready to serve!
