Bruce Dickinson has spent his life singing in the rock band Iron Maiden. Now, the frontman is working on an altogether different type of metal: airplanes.
With some of the most impressive hard rock credits behind their name, DC4 is comprised of Rowan Robertson (guitars), Jeff Duncan (guitars/lead vox), Matt Duncan (bass, backing vox), and Shawn Duncan (drums). Past associations of individual band members include stints with Ronnie James Dio and Armored Saint, among other notable major and independent label recording artists. Their collective experience has coalesced into one of the hardest rocking bands of the 21st century: DC4
The brand new disc by DC4 is called Explode. A combustible powerhouse of modern and classic hard rock that stands on its own as definitive and uncompromised, Explode is produced by Joey Vera (Armored Saint) and marked by the melodic and lyrical prowess of guitarist/singer Jeff Duncan. Explode showcases strong songwriting rarely found in hard rock. Effusing abandon in the human condition without foregoing restraint, DC4 has created a set of cuts that knows no particular era. Explode broadens the band's musical palette while simplifying their core sound, hitting hard when and where it counts.
In less than four months of its release, Explode has positioned DC4 at the vanguard of independent hard rock. Shattering industry expectations with strong sales precipitated by an ever-increasing fan base, a heavy web presence that boasts six official sites, and the band's pedal-to-the-metal guerilla marketing campaign, Explode has been added to the playlists of numerous terrestrial and internet radio stations, including recent rotation on KNAC.COM.
The strength of the new record has ignited a network of no less than 14 promotional street teams worldwide spanning three continents. Rave reviews for Explode have roared in from the U.K., Germany, Italy, Brazil, Peru, and the U.S. Recently, the title track has been set to be featured on a cd compilation of Metal Edge magazine while retail continues to embrace the unsigned band's new disc at a staggering rate, with Explode being made available at scores of record stores nationwide and online everywhere. Steadying an extended residency as openers for Metal Skool at premiere L.A. rock venue, The Key Club, DC4's incendiary live show is a cornerstone of the band's ascent in support of Explode. Manufacturers of instruments and accessories on the front lines of Rock 'n Roll have lent their support as well.
Having worked with producer Joe Floyd (Bruce Dickinson, Warrior) on their debut Ep entitled Mood Swings, DC4 switched gears when they first enlisted mainstay producer Joey Vera to be at the helm of their full-length disc entitled Volume One (2002). Volume One separated DC4 from the rest of the pack with a heavy dose of melody in a hard rock setting and lyrics that neither mimic emotions nor come from a place that isn't absolutely real. Released in Europe on Rising Suns Records, Volume One steadily garnered critical and commercial acclaim while setting the course in motion to put DC4 on the map as the hottest up-and-coming hard rock band of today.
Volume One may have built an audience and laid a solid foundation, but it's no match for the unparalleled success the band is experiencing with Explode. If Mood Swings was the strong effort of a band honing their sound, Volume One was the record that would culminate into the vision that DC4 has now: EXPLODE!
HeadrusH is a hard rock/metal band. With the POWERFUL vocals of singer Andy Law, CHAINSAW guitars from Dan Smith, PULSING bass from Tabbie and THUNDEROUS drums from Kirk. HeadrusH blend a modern day sound with an old school vibe. Having played shows with artists such as: BRUCE DICKINSON, PAUL DIANNO, ELIXIR, THE QUIREBOYS, LAUREN HARRIS, DEMON, THE ANSWER, THE ALMIGHTY, GMT, AIRBOURNE, FIREWIND, TESTAMENT, WOLF, LACUNA COIL, NEVERMORE, ARCH ENEMY, IN FLAMES, TERRORVISION, HAYSEED DIXIE and appeared at THE BULLDOG BASH, BLOODSTOCK & CLIVE AID FESTIVALS, as well as Touring in Germany with DEMON they take their electric live performance everywhere. Independently selling well over 20000 copies of their debut EP (produced by Stuart Epps, Led Zeppelin/Bad Company/Bryan Adams) in two months the band gained recognition from METAL HAMMER MAG & a track was featured on the CLASSIC ROCK MAG Cover mount CD "ONES TO WATCH"as well as a full-page article. Also HeadrusH has appeared in Magazines such as POWERPLAY, METAL HAMMER GERMANY & have been played on countless regional and international Radio Stations, including THE BRUCE DICKINSON BBC RADIO ROCK SHOW plus a live show featured on ROCKWORLD TV On SKY TV. The Track 'A Thousand Pictures' also appeared on the official DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL music player. With a brand new Line-up & 5 track EP set for release in 2010, HeadrusH is hellbent on taking their crunching music to the masses, HeadrusH is a band that EVERY ROCK FAN MUST CHECK OUT!
Watch out Bruce Dickinson, this screaming goat has the "Number Of The Beast." Show 'em your horns on National Metal Day.

Check out surprising statistics that could improve your own bedroom behavior
By Marlisse Cepeda
4. Husbands who do more housework have less sex.
A helpful hubby may not get it on as much as his chore-averse counterparts, according to the February 2013 issue of the American Sociological Review. Examining 4,500 couples, researchers found that men who do chores traditionally delegated to women (like ironing, doing the laundry and cooking) have sex less often than couples who divide housework based on customary gender roles. The reason? A man fixing the occasional broken sink pipe may be more arousing than one loading the dishwasher. Before you tell your husband to put down the laundry detergent, keep in mind the study's data was collected 20 years ago, though researchers believe the results are relevant today. It's also worth noting that the study didn't measure couple's quality of sex, so traditional couples don't necessarily have better nookie; they just do it more often.

Apps to track Your Gift Cards
So, a number of people notified me and stated that they would be more likely to remember to use their gift cards if there was an app with features such as 1) ability to track their cards instead of pen and paper, and 2) the ability to store the actual gift card information on their phone. Of course, having the gift card with you when you are out shopping is paramount. Well, I practice what I preach so I have actually used up my gift cards, but I have found a few apps that may provide you with the features you need. I have not tested any of these apps, however, so you will need to evaluate them and use them at your own risk. Some are free and some have a nominal charge.
Wildcard (iPhone) Free - This app states that it allows you to transfer your balances to someone else – sounds like an easy way to re-gift.
And finally, I came across this article that shows how to send iTunes gift cards and Individual Apps from your iOS device .

Gift Cards... Put Them To Good Use!
So, you have identified a gap in your budget, and you are trying to figure out how to fill that gap. One way is to take a few minutes to round up all those gift cards that you have received and have not yet used. Even if your budget isn't stretched, there is no reason to have all that money just laying around in your house, pocket or purse.
So, put down whatever you are doing, unless you are at work of course, its time to go on an excavation dig, so empty those bed-side table drawers,

If you are Self-employed are you withholding your taxes?
So you are self-employed, and, your income is not being reported to the IRS on a W2 but on a 1099-MISC form, which means that neither federal income tax or self-employment taxes are being withheld from your checks, and it also means that you are responsible for getting those funds over to the IRS on a regular basis, quarterly in fact. Basically, you are required to pay

When is a loan not quite a loan?
So you took a loan from your 401K, because after all, if you were going to pay interest, you wanted to pay it to yourself, and there is some validity in that. However, you hadn't bargained on losing your job before you repaid the loan. You borrowed $20,000, repaid $5,000 and had an outstanding loan of $15,000. If you get terminated with a 401K loan outstanding, you are required to pay the entire remainder in a very short time period, back to your company. If you are unable to do so, then the loan morphs into a taxable distribution. Now that $15,000 is added to your income and you will

Topic Outline
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive disorder in many patients. Despite therapy with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDS), including biologic agents, joint erosion and destruction can develop over time. (See "General principles of management of rheumatoid arthritis in adults".)
The major symptom of joint destruction is pain. With further progression of the arthritis, there are signs of loss of motion, diminution in motor strength, and ultimately decline in function. (See "Evaluation and medical management of end-stage rheumatoid arthritis".)
This topic will review the surgical indications, procedures, management approach, and complications of total joint replacement (TJR) in patients with severe RA. Overviews of total hip and knee arthroplasty and their complications, as well as the perioperative management of patients with rheumatic diseases, are presented elsewhere. (See "Total hip arthroplasty" and "Total knee arthroplasty" and "Complications of total hip arthroplasty" and "Complications of total knee arthroplasty" and "Preoperative evaluation and perioperative management of patients with rheumatic diseases".)
The advent of total joint replacement (TJR) has been considered to be a major breakthrough and an important therapeutic option in the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A 23-year, prospective, longitudinal, observational study (from a single referral center) of TJR and its predictors in 1600 patients with RA followed between 1974 and 1997 from the time of diagnosis revealed the following [1]:
●Approximately 25 percent underwent TJR.

An opinion poll by TNS Nipo has found that sympathy for the Dutch royal family is declining.
The pollsters were told by 37 percent of the people they questioned that they felt less sympathy for Queen Beatrix and her family. TNS Nipo explains the drop by referring to the discussion surrounding a luxurious holiday home being built in Mozambique for Crown Prince Willem-Alexander and Princess Máxima. Questions which arose about the state allowances for members of the royal family also contribute to their reduced popularity, according to TNS Nipo.
Half of the people polled want Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende to ask the princely couple to stop the Mozambique building project. A majority of 72 percent Queen Beatrix should have proposed a freeze of her own allowance. Four out of ten people questioned want a total freeze of the royal family budget, and a third of them want the allowances to be reduced.
The Dutch lower house is debating the royal budget and the royal holiday home on Thursday.

Millennials seek compact, urban 'game-changing' homesMay 23, 2013 @ 9:33 am (Updated: 1:30 pm - 5/24/13 )
Homebuyers between the ages of 18 and 34 - known as Generation Y - could be "game changers" in the U.S. real estate market, according to Urban Land Institute.
A new ULI survey of about 1,200 Millennials showed that the group will continue to prefer more compact, urban homes, even later in life. ULI researchers also note that this generation is more likely than older generations to live in apartments and in downtown areas.
In addition, 59 percent of those surveyed prefer a home in a neighborhood that has a variety of housing types. For example, 62 percent said they prefer mixed-use developments with shops, restaurants, and offices, and 52 percent say they like pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods.
"Over time, we'll see a return to a more compact, metropolitan development pattern," said Patrick Phillips, ULI's chief executive. "We'll see less sprawl at the edges ... the market preferring solutions that are closer in."

Meet the real 'Trail Blazers' in Portland's b-ball scene.
What we've learned from our 9-month series on tomorrow's urban mobility.
It's not anti-transit or anti-rail driving the skepticism; it's anti-bad rail transit.
The first of its kind in the U.S., the Tilikum Crossing will reflect the city's enduring transit culture.
It took very concerted policy efforts going back to the early 1990s.
If trends continue, we'll all soon be riding extremely well-designed mopeds.
Knitted footwear technology is poised to enhance sustainability and walkability alike.
In the modern city, criminality meets multimodality.
In an initial study, researchers found a large disparity.
An idea whose time may have finally come.
"Our customers don't anticipate drinking water that's been contaminated by some yahoo who decided to pee into a reservoir."
Despite modest success, most systems have neither increased mass transit commute share nor the vitality of city centers.
Envisioning a system in which private services, transit agencies, and local businesses all share a fleet.
The next-generation fare card will definitely be much more than a fare card. But what, exactly?
The warming climate is predicted to bring punishing rainstorms.
The city planned to unveil its $4 million program in 2014. But Bixi's bankruptcy has officials reconsidering.
In the era of Google Fiber, there's more reason than ever to confront America's digital divide.
It's possible, and sooner than you'd think.
Are they primarily about economic development or getting people around a city?

Facts/messages: Adolescence is a period of many critical transitions: physical, psychological, economic, and social. While adolescents are those in the age range of 10 to 19 years, youth refers to the age range of 15 to 24 years. Young people make up a very heterogeneous group. The needs of a 12 year-old girl are very different from those of a 24 year-old male. Transition to adulthood is diversified by age, sex, marital status, schooling levels, residence, living arrangements, migration, and socio-economic status. Although young people are all in transition, their experiences are by no means the same. Young people represent an enormous potential resource for most developing countries. Their educational achievement, the skills they develop and the decisions they make about sexual behaviour and childbearing have profound effects, not only on their own lives, but on the lives of generations to come.
The "youth bulge", which is often blamed for the difficulties in reaping benefits from the demographic bonus, is more appropriately interpreted as a "childhood trough". Its real policy significance consists not in that young people are increasing as a proportion of the potential labour force, but in that they are increasing relative to the group under age 15. Thus societal resources previously targeted to young children increasingly need to be redirected to adolescents and young adults. When computed as a percentage of the 15-64 bracket, the 15-24 age group in most countries is declining. Its problems call for a more detailed inspection nonetheless. Taking advantage of the next 15 years in order to invest in young people may be one of the crucial decisions deriving from current demographic trends in many countries, particularly those where the demographic transition is in an intermediate or advanced stage.
It is appropriate to point out the characteristics of this population in terms of working conditions, education and access to services, as well as their participation as citizens, taking into consideration gender and socio-economic inequalities etc., while paying particular attention to the special needs of this group with respect to education and SRH services. Among the many barriers to SRH services for young people are: legal and policy constraints related to age and marital status; fear of being seen, due to a lack of privacy and confidentiality; fear that they will be treated badly; cultural taboos about young people's sexuality; inconvenient hours and locations of facilities; and high costs. In addition, many young people have a poor understanding of their own needs, know little about available services, or are deterred by shame or embarrassment. Many countries have laws prohibiting people below age 18 to access to SRH services without parental consent.
Adolescent pregnancy is correlated with low education levels for girls. When adolescent pregnancies lead to abortions, they are often unsafe. Compared to adults, adolescents are more likely to delay abortion, resort to unskilled persons to perform it, use dangerous methods and present themselves late when complications arise. The highest rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) worldwide are among young people aged 15 to 24 years. The HIV/AIDS pandemic is affecting today's adolescents in ways in which it didn't affect their parents. Most young people do not have access to acceptable STI services. Without treatment, these infections can have serious implications, especially for women and their children. Young girls are at higher risk from STIs than boys because they reach puberty earlier, have older partners more often, and are physiologically more vulnerable to infection.
When young people are equipped with accurate and relevant information and education, skills in decision-making and communication, and have access to counseling and services they are better able to 1) Take advantage of educational and other opportunities that will affect their lifelong well-being; 2) avoid unwanted pregnancies and unsafe abortion; 3) Protect themselves against STIs including HIV; and 4) Improve their reproductive and sexual health, self-esteem and social participation.
Young people account for the majority of rural-urban migrants. Cities offer better jobs, housing, education, health care, and governance opportunities than rural areas. School attendance rates are higher in urban than in rural areas and cities offer greater opportunities for the empowerment of women and girls than rural areas. Many young women leave their villages to get away from traditional practices, such as child marriage, or in search of better economic opportunities and autonomy. The availability of safe havens for adolescent girls and young women can turn urban life into a beneficial experience through which they may find autonomy, access to resources, and control over their lives. On the other hand, lack of opportunities or marginalization perpetuates poverty and is associated with high levels of crime and the rise of political extremism. Close proximity and frequent interactions of young people in urban areas and greater access to mass media has facilitated the creation, adaptation, and dissemination of an urban youth culture, serving as a reference point for young people developing their identities, while these often challenge their roles at home, school, and work. Information and communication technologies are a predominantly urban phenomenon generating more and easier connections among young people. These technologies have changed the way young people relate to each other and have expanded globalized patterns of consumption.
UNFPA's Framework for Action on Adolescents and Youth articulates the organization's multisectoral strategy to promote the comprehensive development of young people worldwide. It also calls for upholding the rights of young people, and especially for marginalized groups and adolescent girls. Its four pillars include:
- Addressing population, youth, and poverty issues at the policy level;
- Expanding access to gender-sensitive, life skills–based sexual and reproductive health including HIV education in schools and community settings;
- Promoting a core package of health and sexual and reproductive health/HIV services;
- Encouraging young people's leadership and participation within the context of sector-wide approaches, poverty reduction strategies and health sector reforms.
Methodology: Collecting and using a standard set of data on young people from censuses and nationally representative surveys is useful for evaluation change over time within a country as well as assessing a country's performance. Analyze the size and growth of the young population. Data should be disaggregated by sex and age (in useful subgroups such as 10-14, 15-19, and 20-24 years), and when possible by educational level or school attendance, marital status, place of residence, and living arrangements. For instance, identify the age at which girls leave school, mean age of marriage, disaggregated by other variables (including household wealth and geographic location) to provide information for targeted intervention.
Make use of censuses and employment surveys for information on economic participation and unemployment, etc. Quantitative survey data may need to be complemented by qualitative methods to generate a complete picture of young people. Also, incorporate indicators for access to education and SRH services. Identify key indicators relevant to young people from DHS and Living Standard Measurement Studies (LSMS). DHS data can be separated into wealth quintiles, providing an important source of information on young people living in poverty and on key issues such as educational levels. When computing the mean or median age at first intercourse, make sure to do this correctly (recognizing the censored nature of the data) as simply computing it on the basis of those who have already had the experience will yield biased results. SHR data can further be manipulated to map geographically the most vulnerable of youth based on the understanding that young people are not a homogeneous group and illustrate visually where they live. DHS data can also give insight into national and regional variations and differences across social and economic strata. Furthermore, identify key indicators from MICS.
The Adolescent Data Guides series Adolescent Experience In-Depth by UNFPA and the Population Council draws principally on data from the DHS and aims to provide decision makers at all levels with data on the situation of adolescent girls and boys and young women. The age range covered is 10-24 and the data are presented in graphs, tables, and maps (where applicable).
The guidance document and toolkit by the UNFPA and Population Council Investing When it Counts addresses the lack of research on young people by compiling new data-gathering approaches, tools, and methodologies. The methodologies described in the guide are useful primarily for discovering which very young adolescents are most vulnerable, what their needs are, and whether they are being reached by existing programmes.
UNFPA's Youth Participation Guide understands the inclusion of young people as meaningful partners in programmes targeting them with information and services that can improve their effectiveness. The resource seeks to increase the level of meaningful youth participation in programming at an institutional and programmatic level. Components include, 1) A conceptual overview on youth participation; 2) An institutional assessment and planning tool; 3) A youth-adult partnership training curriculum; and 4) Background handouts and more.
Specialized questionnaires, developed to monitor progress of youth participation, could address changes in attitudes towards youth staff and youth and adult experiences within the organizations that young people interact with. Basic qualitative and quantitative information can be collected to monitor the impact of youth participation at different levels and serve as the basis for evaluation. For a listing of qualitative and quantitative indicators consult UNFPA's Youth Participation Guide.

I walked for 20 minutes & then tried to sit down. He laid his head on my shoulder, looked at me with heavy eyelids & grinned. He started cooing to me in this tiny, little, sleepy voice. The smiling, staring right at me & cooing continued for about 5 minutes & then, he was sound asleep.
My heart absolutely melted. It was the sweetest thing ever & it brought tears to my eyes.
What's your best mommy moment yet?
Soooo sweet!!
I find myself crying al the time, just looking at DS. I get overwhelmed with happiness just watching him.
One of my favorites though is when he tucks his head in my neck and falls asleep... feeling him breathing againdst me, all isright with the world.
I was BFing DD while watching the Stand Up to Cancer telethon and I started crying. She looked up and right into my eyes, which she never does while nursing. She usually looks everywhere but at me. She just locked eyes with me and touched my face.
So sweet. (I realize she was probably just wondering why my face looked like the bathtub faucet, but I loved it!)
Mine had to be over this wkd:
Every Saturday we go over my IL's for family night. Shortly before leaving, I got a nasty migraine & felt like crap. I convinced DH to take DS & go anyway so everyone could see him. DH stopped by around 7 to bring me food, meds & see how I was then went back over (told me DS had slept for an hr or so & was happily playing on the floor with our niece when he left).
DH got home w/ DS around 9:30 & said that DS had been crying non-stop since he can to check on me at 7 (started when DH left their house) & nothing would make him happy. He said everyone took turns trying to calm him down.
I was feeling better so I got DS out of his carseat, took him in the living room & laid him down to check his diaper. He looked at me & started smiling & talking to me. He was happy the rest of the night & DH said "what, did you just miss Mommy? Is that why all the fuss earlier?" Awww ^_^
purplecrayon, great story, and thanks for posting! Sometimes it's really nice to read happy mama posts.
Just this past Friday, I came home from a long day at work. Hubs was home with Harper, and he was holding her against his chest, facing out. She was fussing just a tiny bit. When I walked into the room she saw me, grinned hugely, and actually held her arms out towards me. It was this awesome moment of "Hey, that Mama Lady is here to play!"
And like a lot of posters here, I absolutely love it when she touches my face, or seeing her touch her father.

Do You Need A Big Belly?
Besides Sesame Street's Oscar the Grouch, I bet you thought you'd never hear of a talking trash can. But every day in Philadelphia, over 500 trash cans converse with the Department of Street's management team.
The BigBelly solar-powered trash-compaction units wirelessly communicate via a short-message service–i.e., text messaging (yes, even trash cans are texting). A central server allows managers to review the status of all BigBelly trash cans in real time.
"You can minimize the number of trips to remove the waste from the containers by knowing the status of each container," says Richard Kennelly, vice president of marketing for BigBelly Solar. "By tracking that data over time, you can optimize your routes to minimize the number of trips while maximizing your savings."
The math is simple: Reduce the number of times you trek out to empty trash containers, and you automatically reduce the gas, manpower and equipment maintenance it costs to remove the trash. "It is a cost-reduction tool; unlike a conventional trash can, it keeps the trash contained, and can hold five times as much in the same footprint of a traditional can," says Kennelly. "This allows collection personnel to reduce their collection frequency by up to 80 percent. It is especially effective in high-volume areas."
Philadelphia installed the BigBelly trash cans in April 2009 to replace 700 litter baskets. "Designed to transform the collection operations, in three years the savings in trash collection will pay for the BigBelly Solar trash cans," says Kennelly. "It was less expensive for Philadelphia to replace all of their trash cans with solar-powered compactors than to keep doing business as usual." In 10 years, the BigBelly will save the city $13 million.
Sun The Belly
"The BigBelly units use solar energy to run a compactor that reduces the trash," says Kennelly. "They don't need full sun either. The BigBelly operates on about the same amount of energy as one Christmas-tree light."
In Cincinnati, Ohio, the park board bought five BigBelly Solar trash cans to evaluate the amount of sun required, the potential for breakage and vandalism, and the effectiveness of the units in high-use areas. "We placed them in sunny areas, downtown next to buildings, under shade trees and in a high-demand location next to our Krohn Conservatory during the annual butterfly show that draws more than 80,000 visitors," says Gerald R. Checco, superintendent of operation, environmental and international affairs for the park board. "They worked well under every condition. We've also had no breakage or vandalism." The board then purchased five more solar trash cans and placed the new ones in the showcase locations, moving the older versions to new areas.
Reining In Trash
Similar to a mailbox or library book-return hopper, the BigBelly Solar trash can opens via a pull-down hopper where a person places the trash and then closes the door. The trash then falls into a watertight collection bin. The enclosed system keeps the trash inside the container instead of blowing out, overflowing, or being knocked over. It keeps out bees and wasps, and larger pests, such as raccoons, skunks, brown bears and birds, that can create messes for maintenance crews.
"The concept of BigBelly is very simple and very elegant. We have 150 parks and about 50 gateways, and most of them have from one to 80 trash receptacles. In total, we have over 600 trash cans, and picking up trash is one of our highest costs, and is environmentally taxing," says Checco.
"Garbage trucks break down all the time, and use an extraordinary amount of fuel and oil. By decreasing the number of times we pick up garbage, we reduce not only the pollution, but can reallocate the money and time saved to other projects."

Cancer Survivor Gives New Hope To Infertilityby Summer+ in pregnancy
When Emma Leach was diagnosed with breast cancer five years ago she knew that the cure might mean the end of her fertility. To fight against this common side effect, she agreed to undergo a pioneering operation with pieces of her ovaries being removed and reinserted.
Chemotherapy was the only way Emma could save herself after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Unfortunately, the radiation treatment caused her body to go into premature menopause. The treatment should have meant an end to her fertility. However, Emma was not willing to give up without a fight.
When she was first diagnosed, Emma had sections of her then functioning ovaries removed and frozen until a time when her body was free from cancer. Five years later, she has undergone a radical surgery to have those pieces put back in, returning her fertility to her again.
The procedure was carried out by special surgical robots, lead by Professor Kutluk Oktay, a New York-based fertility pioneer. Emma, from London, searched for a year before finding a doctor who was willing to perform the procedure. During it, her ovaries were cut open and the functioning pieces were stitched back inside. Pieces that were too small to stitch back in were injected into her existing ovarian tissue. The robotic arm used was able to perform the fine stitches with more precision than a human arm could do.
'There is no hand tremor – this allows the surgeon to do fine suturing at microscopic levels without having to put patients through invasive surgery.'
Because Emma only had pieces of her ovaries frozen, rather than the entire organs, this operation is being called a partial success. In Denmark, Israel and USA women can have their entire ovaries removed and frozen in such events, however that is not common in the UK.
Now, Emma has begun a website to help other women who are facing chemotherapy. Her site, www.lifeonice.com, tells young women why they should have their ovaries frozen before facing chemotherapy. She hopes that her website will help other women continue to hold onto their fertility and make the best choices for themselves. – Summer, staff writer

Even if you exercise regularly, sitting at your desk all day will kill you. Literally. One study by the American Cancer Society found that men who sit for six or more hours a day are 20 percent more likely to die from a given cause than men who sit for less than three hours. Other research has linked prolonged daily sitting to high blood pressure, cancer, and diabetes.
On the flip side, scientists have found that physical movement inspires creative problem solving. To craft your own ideal setup, follow these suggestions from Todd Meier, an ergonomics expert at insurance company the Standard, and Carey Fitzgerald, an expert in evolutionary psychology at Michigan's Oakland University.
How to Make Working at Your Desk into a Healthy Experience
1. A number of pricey treadmill desks have popped up recently, but you'll get many of the same benefits by simply standing for two-thirds of your day. Ergo Depot's adjustable-height desk ($750) allows you to create all kinds of workstations. You can even hook up your bike to a trainer—we like the CycleOps SuperMagneto Pro ($400)—with your front tire under your desk.
2. Sitting on a physio ball like the Gymnastik Standard Swiss ($20) corrects your posture and strengthens your core. Ease into it—your abs will be sore after a few hours.
3. Awkward wrist, arm, and shoulder positions lead to muscle knots and carpal tunnel syndrome. Your elbows should dangle even with your keyboard and mouse, and your wrists and forearms should be in a straight line. A keyboard tray makes this easy ($139).
4. To prevent eyestrain, position your computer monitor at least 18 inches from your face. To prevent neck strain, it should be directly in front of you at eye height, tilted up 10 to 20 degrees. Placing it on books works as well as a stand.
5. A 2011 study published in the science journal Nature found that greenery decreases anger and frustration.
6. Simply petting your dog increases your level of oxy-tocin, a.k.a. the love hormone, resulting in lower stress levels.
7. A growing number of studies suggests that images of nature will boost your memory, attention, and concen-tration almost as much as the real thing does.
8. Exposure to sun-light, even if the UVB rays are filtered out by a window, has been shown to improve mood.

By adding two or more Essential Oils together, you increase their effect considerably.
For example, if Lavender and Chamomile are both good for anti-inflammatory purposes, then by combining them, their effect will be even greater together as an anti-inflammatory than either of them used alone.
Here's what I've learned about combining (blending) Essential Oils… specifically, how many drops should be used for various purposes.
Blending Essential Oils
By mixing 2 to 4 Essential Oils together that have the same therapeutic properties, you can create a blend that works synergistically and with more intensity than using just one oil alone.
However, according to Valerie Gennari Cooksley, a certified aromatherapist: "high concentrations of Essential Oil usage can produce the opposite effect. For example, Lavender Essential Oil can cause restlessness, agitation, and insomnia if too much is used rather than relaxation."

- Fun Ways To Use Essential Oils
- Best Essential Oil Diffusers For Aromatherapy
- Which Carrier Oils To Use With Essential Oils
One of my favorite combinations of Essential Oils mimics those used in the popular highly-rated product called Poo-Pourri, which is used to eliminate bathroom odors.
Simply combine these 3:
- Bergamot
- Lemongrass
- Grapefruit
For the record, they do have other scents for this unique spray-before-you-go bathroom spray, but the original scent mentioned above is the only one I've personally tried.

Q&A: Busta Rhymes – Back in the Ring
From "Woo Hah!! Got You All in Check" to "Touch It" to "Arab Money," Busta Rhymes can't seem to miss a punch even if he tried. His eighth solo album, Back On My B.S. featuring Lil Wayne, T.I., Pharrell, Mary J. Blige, Jamie Foxx, and Common, hit stores this week.
