I am being prescribed androgel 1% in pump form. My main question is one I have my concerns not with taking the medication but weather or not this is going to be enough to correct the issue.
I have looked at the medication and they have 2 doses the 1% and a higher one since my levels are so low wouldnt the higher dose be right for me?
Is this something I would be on for the rest of my life? Or will this boost my ability to naturally produce testosterone?
Last Question is I have small children 2 boys and 2 girls i have heard that the gel could potentially get on them and cause adverse affects. So is there a better option for me?
I have asked my Dr. all of these questions but he didnt really answer them as well as i would have liked and has told me that in one months he wants to check my levels again after i start the medication. So I assume that he will be checking to see if the medication is working.
Anyone with information I would appreciate it.

Im my case its much like his I was tested for low testosterone (Im 31) and that is what I am being told is the issue also causing other issues. I read another tip on here from a Doctor that said to see a Urologist as there could be other causes. But the bottom line is he should talk to a doctor about this. Thats what I finally broke down and had to do myself.View Thread

For Dodgers organist Nancy Bea Hefley, it all comes down to family – both her own, as well as her Dodger family here at Chavez Ravine.
After all, what else would compel Nancy and her husband Bill to spend three hours each day completing the round trip drive from their in-season home near Lake Arrowhead to Dodger Stadium? She's battled snow and fog to make it to nearly every home game in 2010, and every year, in her 22+ year career as the official organist of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
"She is the Dodgers to most people," said Nancy's sound engineer, Patrick Sweeney. "She's very well respected. When people from other ballparks come here, they go over [to see Nancy]. It's very special and unique."
In fact, two hours before the game on the night I visited, Nancy Bea, as she's known to Dodger fans everywhere, was at her usual spot in the dining room of the Vin Scully Press Box, having dinner with her husband Bill and an old friend from the broadcasting team for the New York Mets.
As she makes the short walk over to her famous corner of the press box before the start of the game, the parade of visitors and well-wishers begins.
Former Dodger and current Fox broadcaster Eric Karros stops by to say hello. "Nancy, how are you?" he says as he extends a hand over her organ, while also offering her a piece of candy.
Dodger legend Manny Mota arrives with a huge smile. "I'm her number one fan," he tells me sincerely.
Broadcaster Steve Lyons stops by and sings along to Nancy's rendition of 'Food Glorious Food.'
"I feel so lucky, because I'm right next to her every game," said Sweeney. "She's kind of like my West Coast mom….but also like a best friend. Just wonderful to be around."
Team employees, security staff, members of the media and VIP fans constantly swing by Nancy's organ throughout the game to meet Nancy, take pictures or simply chat about the ups and downs of life. It goes both ways. They know about Nancy, and she knows all about their lives outside the stadium.
"As you can see, this is kind of a meeting place. It goes on like this all night," said Nancy. "That's why I stay."
Nancy Bea Hefley must be considered the Ironwoman of professional organists. Over the course of the 22 and a half years that Nancy has been playing at Chavez Ravine, she's missed exactly eight games out of more than 1,800…and only one of those was for being sick. For the record, two of her absences were so she could attend graduation ceremonies for her granddaughters, one was so the Dodgers could train a replacement in case she ever became sick (she still played the organ that night…just at the MTV Rock & Jock Basketball Game) and the remaining four were while she was on a family trip to Iowa. But did I mention that she still managed to play a four-game stint with the Iowa Cubs while on that same vacation?
By my count, as of Sunday, July 25, 2010, Nancy Bea Hefley has played the National Anthem and 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame' exactly 1,851 times at Dodger Stadium (she has also played 'Don't Stop Believin' exactly once) . These totals include all home playoff games since 1988, as well as the World Baseball Classic finals. Of course, it does not include the daily rehearsals with the Anthem singers (sometimes twice) and the countless times over several decades she has performed the National Anthem at horse shows across the country. According to my math, Nancy Bea will have her 2,000th public performance of both songs at Dodger Stadium during her 25th season with the club on or about June 25, 2012 (give or take a few days for future playoff games). Needless to say, Nancy Bea Hefley truly loves playing the organ.
The Early Years
Nancy's love for music began when she was just four years old. She would listen to her 17 year-old sister play the piano and, even at that young age, she could pick out what she was playing. Her mother convinced a music teacher at their church to give her piano lessons, despite the teacher's concerns about her young age. "He discovered that I had perfect pitch," said Nancy. "After about six months, he said, 'I can't go any farther with her.'"
At the age of seven, Nancy's mother introduced her daughter to the accordion and she learned to play classical music with it, despite the fact that the instrument was far too big for her.
"I went on with the accordion and became a concert accordionist…and worked Vegas, Tahoe and television."
But she never gave up on the piano – and was always intrigued by the organ. "At 13, I talked my piano teacher into at least showing me the basics of the organ. So I had about six lessons that way. And that's my organ [training]."
At 17, she substituted for a friend who was scheduled to play the accordion at a pageant at the Orange County Fair. While there, the organizer asked her to also try her hand at a neglected organ. She never looked back. Nancy went on to play the organ at festivals and horse shoes across the country, including more than 30 years at the Pomona Fair.
But Nancy soon discovered that her musical skills were in demand at places other than horse shows – she was also becoming popular with the local sports teams in Los Angeles.
"I had substituted for the Angels back in 1986. They spoke to me about taking the job, and I said 'No, I substituted for a friend. I won't take a job away from a friend.'"
Nancy's husband Bill also stated the Dodgers also had their eye on Nancy in the early years. "Tommy John tried to get her. When he was playing, we ran around with Tommy and Sally and [they] tried to get her to do it then. She said no, I won't take anybody's job."
But things changed in 1987 when then Dodger organist Helen Dell announced she was retiring at the end of the season. "Then I felt comfortable," said Nancy. "So I called, and it was at the end of the season…they had auditioned all year 'round, I guess. And they said, 'Come on in and play.' I played and they said, 'We definitely want a comeback.' February 14, 1988, [the Dodgers] played an exhibition game with USC. There were three of us that played three innings each and they called me that night and said I had the job. I never thought I'd last this long. I didn't think I'd like to play for a baseball game every night. Helen was here 15 years, and I thought, 'Boy, I'd be doing good to get that far.' This is my 23rd, and I've got a contract for two more years after this."
Nancy and Bill
As you might imagine, Nancy and her husband met over music. At 16, Nancy was called one Sunday morning by the Bellflower Baptist Church, as they were in urgent need of an organist, as their regular organist was sick.
"Well it wasn't a church that I attended, so I didn't know how fast they sang the songs or anything. I ended up staying there, and that's where we met." Nancy ended up playing the organ at Bellflower Baptist, and a few other churches, for more than 55 years.
From then on, Bill has been a constant at Nancy's side and attends every game with his wife. "I'm her driver," said Bill.
"It's 24/7 with us," said Nancy. "We've been together 53 years now."
The Dodgers have always been an important part of Bill and Nancy's life…long before she joined the organization as the official organist.
Bill, a retired steelworker, was involved in the construction of Dodger Stadium, and Nancy was his source for tickets.
"When [the Dodgers] first came to down, I was working for KBIG Radio in Hollywood," said Nancy. "I would give Bill tickets to the Coliseum to go watch the games. I wasn't a baseball fan then. I was into music."
But Bill certainly was. "I was there when Drysdale struck out 18 Giants," he said. "I was there the night they honored Campanella. I went to a lot of games at the Coliseum."
When she first joined the Dodgers, Nancy played all nine innings of every game. But that changed in 2004 when a new executive was brought in to run the in-game entertainment. Nancy found herself only playing the National Anthem and 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame.' She wasn't happy. "We sold our place here, and bought land in Northern Nevada. I gave notice Opening Day [2005]." She planned to retire at the conclusion of the 2005 season.
"Drew McCourt then called me and said, 'Why? What can we do?'" A new schedule was put in place that allowed her to play between select innings and continue to leave after the seventh inning. Happy once again, Nancy rescinded her request to retire.
The Magic of Music
Besides her extraordinary tenure with the club, what Nancy is most known for is the clever way her song choice reflects the action on the field and in the broadcast booth. Incredibly, Nancy knows more than 2,000 songs, does not bring any music with her to the stadium and does not pre-plan what she will play on any given night.
"I fly by the seat of my pants," said Nancy. "I don't have anything planned, I don't have any music. I know probably my first song and maybe the one after that."
On the night I visited, I spoke to several Dodger ticket holders about the impact of Nancy's organ music on the overall game experience.
"She seems to be keyed on the play, so when the action happens, she can hype the fans or bring them down. She gets everyone going," said John from West Hills, CA. "I think it help gets the team up, it gets the fans up, it gets everyone going. It's that added thrill about coming to the ballpark."
Cathy from Oxnard added, "She (Hefley) can feel the vibes of the crowd and play that in where you can't do that with CDs. It's the live interaction with the crowd…whether it's cheering up, or making everyone get to their feet."
"The first year [the Dodgers] said they wanted me to come with a list of what I was going to play," said Nancy. "I opened that up and started to play and then [the team] did something really rotten on the field and I was going to play 'It's a Happy Day.' No, I don't think so. So from then, I go with the flow. Things usually will trigger a song in my head and that's how it happens."
Nancy continued, "One time when Hu was on first base, I was walking to the restroom and I heard Vinny [Scully] say, 'I wonder if in her vast repertoire, Nancy Bea happens to know the song 'Who.'" So I'm thinking, wow, how does that go? So I sang it to myself as I came back and the next chance I had, I played it."
But Nancy's musical powers can also be used to send a message. "We had a pitcher from Ohio one time and he couldn't even go a third of an inning…he could not get a batter out. They finally pulled him, so I played 'Why Oh Why Did I Ever Leave Ohio?' That's probably the worst thing I've ever done."
Nancy has also made some songs famous at the ballpark. In 1988 in the Dodger Stadium parking lot, Nancy ran into the general manager for the old Shubert Theatre, and he arranged for her to attend a performance of Les Miserables, which is where she first heard the song 'Master of the House.'
"I learned it, thinking that I would play it for the umps when they're introduced, because they're in control of the game," said Nancy. "Vinny came out of the booth…he was so excited. He started making it Orel Hershiser's theme song. And to this day, when Orel is here, I'll play it for him. Last time he was here he thanked me for playing it the time before. I said, 'You're getting it again tonight, because I don't get to play it that often as everyone looks to see where you are!'"
When Friday night's game started to get away from the Dodgers in the eighth inning, Nancy Bea stepped in. With Jeff Weaver struggling and Joe Torre heading to the mound for a conference, Hefley immediately started playing 'Just a Little Help from my Friends.' Shortly thereafter, Weaver was replaced by James McDonald. Hefley responds with 'A Handy Man.' "Hopefully he will be," said Hefley. Unfortunately for the Dodgers, McDonald wasn't, giving up a sacrifice fly to David Wright. Eventually McDonald was replaced by Jack Taschner. Silently noting to herself that he was making his Dodger debut, Hefley responds with 'Consider Yourself One of the Family' from the Broadway musical 'Oliver.'
Nancy truly loves coming to Chavez Ravine each day, and it shows. Not only is it a way for her to spend time with her husband Bill, but with her extended Dodger family as well. "I really come here for the fun atmosphere…I don't come her to work," said Nancy. "I just come to see people and talk. The work is just a sideline."
Earlier this season, Vin Scully noted to National Public Radio, "I've just enjoyed her and Bill. I'm so thrilled for their anniversary the other day. She's a very classy, lovely lady and I'm delighted to take a minute to join all of the others and doff our caps and roll the drums and blare the bugles and salute her, because she's a sweetheart."
When the game was finally over and the Mets had beaten the Dodgers 6-1, Nancy Bea Hefley wrapped up the evening with two songs 'We Had Joy, We Had Fun' and 'Forget Tomorrow.' While the players will most likely want to forget Friday's game, Dodger fans will never forget what Nancy Bea Hefley brings to the ballpark each day. With just a few full-time organists remaining in Major League Baseball, Nancy Bea Hefley is indeed a Los Angeles treasure. A great piece of music is often made up of several parts, and the same can be said at Dodger Stadium, with Nancy Bea Hefley, Vin Scully and the team on the field. So many fans appreciate and recognize the subtlety and nuances of Nancy's music during the game. She truly provides the soundtrack for the season – and hopefully many seasons to come.

St. John's Restaurant is located in the former St. John's Hotel building. Built at the turn of the twentieth century, the flatiron building evolved over the years from hotel to brothel to abandonment. After being condemned and nearly torn down in the 1990s, local architect and preservationist Thomas Johnson purchased the building and began restoration immediately. In addition to St. John's Restaurant and St. John's Meeting Place, the building also houses various businesses and luxury apartments on the floors above.
After many years training under Besh, English was ready to spread his wings. He went to Memphis with hopes of opening his own restaurant and made that dream a reality with the opening of Restaurant Iris in 2008. In February 2012, English was named Memphis' "Prince of Porc" in the national COCHON555 competition, earning him a seat at the 2012 Aspen Food & Wine Festival. In 2010 English appeared on the Food Network's "The Best Thing I Ever Ate," and earned the Memphis Restaurant Association's "Restaurateur of the Year" award. Also in 2010, he was named a James Beard Award Semifinalist for Best Chef: Southeast. English has been featured in the popular cooking magazines Everyday with Rachel Ray and Bon Appétit, the cookbook Wild Abundance, and has cooked alongside Wolfgang Puck at the American Wine and Food Festival. English also serves on the Founder's Council for the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival.
Restaurant Iris, a charming French-Creole restaurant near the historic Overton Square of midtown Memphis, has taken the Memphis dining scene by storm. Among its many accolades, Restaurant Iris has received a four-star review from the Commercial Appeal and was voted Memphis' "Best Restaurant" and "Best Chef" three years in a row, and "Best Service" four years in a row by Memphis magazine readers. In 2011, 2010 and 2009, Memphis Flyer readers voted English and Restaurant Iris "Best Restaurant" and "Best Chef." Restaurant Iris was named "Editors Choice: Best Restaurant" by At Home Tennessee, "Best Bet Outside of Louisiana" by Louisiana Life Magazine, and "Hot New Restaurant" by Delta Magazine.
At Kelly English Steakhouse, Chef English redefines traditional steakhouse fare by infusing his French- Creole style into all his dishes, reinventing old favorites and introducing new ones. The steakhouse continues his commitment from Restaurant Iris to use fresh and local ingredients whenever possible on all menu items.
"I decided at a very young age (17) that I wanted to be an entrepreneur. My father has been an entrepreneur my whole life. The deciding factor for me was being who I want to be, when I want to be it and creating my own universe, if you will, and being able to control what is going on in my life, instead of having other people control it."
"Being an entrepreneur and making my own decisions lets me make the restaurant what I want it to be, everything from the food to the decor. It permeates in every aspect of what I do. I helped build the tables here in the restaurant…they have a significant background. I don't do things because I just want to make money. You'll make good money if you believe in and love what you do and share that with other people. I cook because I want to people to experience what I love and give them a piece of what I like to do and people know that. You don't have to tell them that–they see it and they feel it. I am not here just to make food to sell to make money because I need money. I don't even think about the money aspect. I know that God will provide that for me because I am working from a place of honesty, not from a place that doesn't have any truth to it."
Sullivan assumed that the joy he took in preaching and caretaking meant that he was born to minister. By his early thirties, he left the church, moved his family to upstate New York and attended the Culinary Institute of America while continuing to work full-time at restaurants, then apprenticed himself to sausage makers who, like he, experienced their work as pork art and a form of living history.
"I am all about heritage, tradition; I go back into time rather than forward to learn," he says. "I butcher every ounce that I use. It is my responsibility. I hand tie my sausages with hemp in the old Italian way; it grips the casing better. I mix my meats with my hands in order to put a little touch of myself with it, so that people taste the human touch, not some cold, stainless steel machine." Michael has worked in the kitchens at Blackberry Farm since 2004, and specifically with our meat curing program since 2007
In 2007, Button, a Cornell University graduate with a master's degree from L'Ecole Centrale in Paris, France, was about to start a prestigious PhD program in Neuroscience. Instead she left her previous career in pursuit of passion, life, and happiness. She sought out a job at a restaurant called Cafe Atlantico/Minibar in Washington DC one of José Andrés' amazing restaurants. Button describes it as fate that brought her to the doorstep of a José Andrés restaurant. It was there that she fell in love with restaurants, food, cooking, and Félix Meana, a service manager from elBulli, Ferran Adrià´s famous restaurant in Spain.
After some time working with Johnny Iuzzini at Jean Georges in New York and then at the Bazaar by José Andrés in Los Angeles, she finally made it. With only a couple of years professional cooking experience, Katie entered a 7 month stage at the best restaurant in the world. That experience changed her life. In January 2010, immediately after finishing her internship at elBulli, she moved to Asheville, North Carolina to focus all of her attention on opening her own restaurant with her husband Félix, her mother Elizabeth Button (alumna of French Culinary Institute), and father Ted Button. They have since developed the parent company Heirloom Hospitality Group and opened their first restaurant Cúrate, a bar de tapas www.curatetapasbar.com.
Since the opening of Cúrate in March 2011 Chef Button has been featured in numerous national publications such as: Southern Living, Food & Wine, Food Arts, Martha Stewart Living, Robb Report, Departures, and The Local Palate. GQ Magazine, March 2013 named Cúrate one of "Twelve Most Outstanding Restaurants of 2013".
Button has been chosen as a 2012 James Beard Rising Star Chef Semi-Finalist, nominated for Food and Wine magazine's People's Choice Best New Chef 2012 & 2013, and won the Robb Report Culinary Master Competition where she presented a dinner to 50 judges, besting the four other chefs nominated by Eric Ripert, Masa Takayama, Charlie Palmer and Michael Mina. In January 2013 she was bestowed the Women Chefs and Restaurateurs, Golden Whisk Award, recognizing excellence in the kitchen and honoring a woman whose passion and excellence as a chef or cook serves as a role model for others.
Chef Button has also traveled as a culinary demonstrator to The French Culinary Institute and Johnson & Wales University, where she was honored with the Distinguished Visiting Chef Award in October 2012.
Still early in her career, Chef Button focuses time each year to professional development and continued education. In the winter of 2012, she traveled to Copenhagen, Denmark, to stage at Renee Redzepi's Noma, and then in January of 2013 she had the opportunity to complete another stage with Ferran and Albert Adria at Tickets and 41˚ in Barcelona, Spain.
Growing up on a 140 acre working dairy farm on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Stoltzfus enjoyed the fresh ingredients his mother used to cook dinner every night. Fate or perhaps his mother's intuition steered him in the culinary direction, when a couple of weeks before he was to begin college, his mother decided to open a bakery and enlisted Stoltzfus' help in running it. Although he knew little more than how to scramble an egg, Stoltzfus found himself not only cooking breakfast and lunch at the family owned Village Bakery and Café, in Chestertown, Maryland but also running the front of the house as well.
While working at the family bakery, Stoltzfus embarked on his culinary adventure alongside his then girlfriend (and now fiancé), Lillian Hubbard. Together they purchased a variety of cookbooks and began cooking and experimenting in their home kitchen. Throughout the next several years he began cooking at a variety of restaurants in Maryland and they eventually decided to explore the celebrated culinary scene in New Orleans. At just 25 years old, Stoltzfus' talents were already evident and he was immediately hired to work at New Orleans' esteemed Restaurant August. Only six months later he was promoted to Sous Chef, working alongside John Besh at August, a position he held for the next year.
His entrepreneurial spirit flared when he heard that a gorgeous restaurant space in the heart of New Orleans majestic Garden District was available. Both he and Hubbard had dreamed of opening their own restaurant from the time they were experimenting with cookbooks in Maryland. Just weeks later, in December of 2008, they opened the visually stunning Coquette where he hired a wildly creative team of chefs.
"I've always believed that if you're going to work 15 hours a day, you have to have fun doing it," reflects Stoltzfus. "I set up the kitchen at Coquette as a creativity breeding ground where I encourage all of my chefs to contribute to every aspect of the menu," Stoltzfus adds.
This springboard of culinary imagination is exemplified in the large number of tasting menus Stoltzfus and his chefs create on a daily basis. Incorporating guests' preferences, the chefs' creative energies thrive on designing personalized tastings menus for each guest. Even the set dinner menu changes nightly based on the inventive ideas that develop from Stoltzfus' kitchen at Coquette. The results are both elegant and exciting, using his refined techniques to create modern Southern dishes with a worldly influence.
Stoltzfus' deft cooking earned his restaurant a four bean rating from Times Picayune Restaurant Critic Brett Anderson and a review brimming with superlatives. Several glowing reviews have followed for this self-taught chef and they have all been capped off by a recent 2013 James Beard nomination for Best Chef in the South.
Coquette is open for lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday, as well as brunch and dinner on Sundays. This modern southern restaurant is located at 2800 Magazine Street in New Orleans' historic Garden District. For more information and or to make reservations please visit their website, www.coquette-nola.com or call the restaurant at 504.265.0421.
A Georgia native who spent his childhood in Savannah, Satterfield moved to Atlanta to attend the architecture program at Georgia Institute of Technology, with his final year of design studying abroad in Paris. After graduating in 1992, Satterfield was lured to music. Picking up the guitar for the first time, he began writing songs and formed Seely, the first American band signed to the UK label Too Pure. Within a year, Seely rocketed to the top 15 on college radio charts and toured various clubs all over the United States before disbanding in 2000.
During Seely's band years, Satterfield found himself working in kitchens to supplement his income, which led to a passion he had not yet discovered: cooking. Between gigs and tours he landed a job at Floataway Café, part of the family of Atlanta restaurants owned and operated by heralded chef Anne Quatrano. His appointment to Floataway's kitchen proved a turning point for his culinary career; it was here he discovered his fascination with fresh local ingredients. He began taking cooking seriously as an art form, eventually rising from the ranks at Decatur's acclaimed Watershed under the tutelage of celebrated executive chef Scott Peacock.
As a child, Satterfield spent summers in Asheville, N.C., with his grandmother, Hilda, who taught him everything from stringing pole beans to making the perfect biscuit. Her simple approach to cooking, canning, preserving and using local ingredients is a philosophy that he references daily. Satterfield continues to develop deep connections with local growers, dairies and producers to curate the best ingredients the South has to offer. Miller Union is a testament to Satterfield's commitment to cook with local and seasonal ingredients while employing as little manipulation as possible.
As a member of Slow Food Atlanta, Georgia Organics and the Southern Foodways Alliance, Satterfield remains actively engaged with Atlanta's progressive culinary community. In 2011, Satterfield was nominated for Food & Wine magazine's "People's Best New Chef," following Miller Union's placement on the "Best New Restaurants in America" lists from Bon Appetit and Esquire, as well as Atlanta magazine's "Restaurant of the Year" in 2010. The James Beard Foundation recognized Miller Union as a semifinalist for the national award of best new restaurant in 2010.
Satterfield lives in the historic neighborhood of Inman Park in Atlanta. An avid cyclist, he also enjoys exploring the Georgia coast, listening to new music, teaching people to cook, and researching cocktails with the bartenders of Miller Union.
Lindley's unwavering commitment to the bounty and heritage of the Southeast has made St. John's Restaurant one of the top dining destinations in the region.

Product Review: Omega "Vert" Juicerby Michelle Buffardi in Product Reviews, July 7, 2012
I'm a juicer from way back. My first juicer was a Jack LaLanne Power Juicer that I bought at the mall for about $60 because I saw an infomercial featuring the 80-something-year-old gent clad in a velour fitness suit who had managed to age in reverse by juicing fresh fruits and vegetables daily. The Power Juicer worked fine and lasted a couple of years, but I've tried many others since that one fizzled out. I'm not looking to age back to my teens or convert to a raw diet; I make fresh juice several times per week to get an extra dose of vegetables, and because I like fresh juice. If I start my morning with spinach-apple-kale-lemon-beet juice, I feel like a champ. And if I get home after a busy day and realize that I didn't eat any greens, in ten minutes I can clean out the veggie drawer and set myself straight.
Omega juicers are definitely the gold standard of juicers, what KitchenAid is to mixers. I was pretty excited for the opportunity to try the new Omega Vert 350 juicer. The other juicers I've used were centrifugal juicers which grind up vegetables and send them through a chute at high speed, separating the juice from the pulp. The Omega Vert is a masticating juicer, which "chews" up the vegetables slowly, releasing the juice; this works especially well for greens which are usually shot right through a centrifugal juicer.
The Vert differs from other masticating juicers because its chute is vertical (hence "vert") instead of horizontal. The design was a bit more sleek than the horizontal version, but beyond aesthetics, the fruits and vegetables seemed to move through the chute faster. The juicer comes with two different juicing screens, fine and coarse, so you can control pulp; I preferred the fine screen. The Vert is very easy to clean; it comes with a little brush and the parts are easy to take apart and re-assemble. Most of the parts must be washed by hand and aren't dishwasher safe, but that's pretty standard with juicers.
I was curious as to how the Vert would compare to other juicers, so I cut up equal amounts of fruits and vegetables and did a side-by-side test of the Vert, a horizontally-designed masticating juicer and a centrifugal juicer. The first and perhaps most important difference was in the mouth of the juicer. The horizontal masticating juicer had a very small mouth, requiring a lot of prep work to chop the vegetables into very small slices; the Vert had a large mouth so I had to just cut most items in half. The other nice feature was that the produce was sucked down the tube quickly; with the other juicers, you have to give the vegetables a shove. The noise-level was also noticeable: the Vert was much quieter than the other two.
I was concerned with how much juice the Vert would produce, so I compared the glasses before I sipped. All three juicers produced about the same amount of juice, but the juice from the centrifugal juicer had a thick layer of froth on top. I'm not a fan of spinach froth, so the lack of froth in the Vert juice was a plus for me.
The downsides: the biggest factor here is the price; the Vert 350 retails for $379 — more of an investment than an impulse buy. If you're a serious juicer and are looking to upgrade, this is the Rolls Royce of juicers — you won't be disappointed. If you're hooked on fresh fruit and vegetable juice and end up buying a few green juices per week, consider how those $8 juices add up; in 6 month's time, you'd save the cost of the juicer if you made your own juice at home. But if you're just dipping your toe into the world of fresh juice, choose a model that fits your budget until you're sure just how much you'd use a new appliance.

And the discussion of how to make medical devices more like iPods marches on! … Don't miss yesterday's piece at the UK's Guardian, which actually tried to contact Apple for comment (no comment forthcoming). Also see the coverage at MacUser, and BrandWeek's take, which suggests that Steve Jobs ought to start by revamping hearing aids. A heck of a lot of buzz created for the medical-cum-lifestyle design cause, what say?!
On the diabetes design front, we may have found the champion we seek in Stanford Postdoctoral Fellow Joel Goldsmith, previously with Medtronic's diabetes division, who says:
"What's funny is that these companies tend to think that people with diabetes are somehow not the same people as those buying iPods and Nintendos and Razor phones. Why would they feel any less strongly about design issues? If they have to live with these devices 24/7, why wouldn't they feel even stronger about it?"
I had a long talk with Joel yesterday, and this guy has got it goin' on, I tell you! He's a UCLA MBA with extensive industry experience, who's just spent a year with Stanford's "incubator" Biodesign Innovation Program. The program puts small groups of engineers, physicians, and students to work on identifying "unmet clinical needs" and proposing one or more solution prototypes. His group this year focused on orthopedic issues, but his heart still lies in diabetes care, he says.
Here's what Joel had to say in reaction to our Steve Jobs design appeal:
"When I was at Medtronic, I cited the iPod many times as what we should be aspiring for. It's not only attractive and aesthetic, but also incredibly easy to navigate, and can be discreetly worn… It's become a lifestyle product — an extension of people's identity, and it's a pleasure to use."
"Apple uses the technology to mask the technical complexity of its products. That's what they do so well. So it's an intuitive experience."
"Back then, it was an uphill battle for me to convince (Medtronic) that what we were selling was not just an insulin delivery device, but a fully integrated diabetes managment system. That concept is not so novel anymore. Medtronic actually has the most integrated system at the moment. I think we'll see all the companies in this space offering the full set of components — insulin delivery, glucose sensing, software that interprets the data, and the disposable components as well. And then what will differentiate all these offerings is service and support, cost, and especially the form factor, the appeal of the products."
"I don't see anyone, with the exception of Insulet, that has placed a heavy emphasis on design. They're setting an example; it's not perfect, but a big step in the right direction."
"Most companies still treat these items as pure 'medical devices,' rather than actually as consumer electronics that also happen to have an important medical function. It shocks me that this mindset isn't more prevalent here in Silicon Valley, where all the technology intelligence is. If I can't find it here, I can't find it anywhere…."
Lucky for us, Joel has aspirations to tackle this change. He notes that the obstacles lie not in the technology, which is "all there," but rather in the old-school mindset and bureaucracy typical of many large corporations. Keep your eye on the start-ups! (Where Joel is likely to land)
Even the big companies are on the move, albeit slowly. For example, Joel did a stint helping a group at Qualcomm Corp. experiment with using the company's wireless chipsets for application in medical devices.
Editor's Note: For PWD Mac fans, a reader pointed out that Apple does offer a nice Diabetes Logbook for Mac OS X 10.4 or later versions.

Vt: More jobs are in need of an educated workforceBy Bruce Edwards
STAFF WRITER | July 14,2013Albert J. Marro / Staff Photo
Vermont can expect to see 132,000 job openings this decade jobs that will require education and training beyond high school, according to a national report.
The report by the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce predicted the following Vermont industries would experience the strongest growth:
Professional, scientific and technical services: 38 percent.
Administrative and support, and waste management and remediation services: 33 percent.
Health care and social assistance: 25 percent.
Within those industries, health care support jobs are expected to increase 27 percent; STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), 25 percent; health care professional and technical, 24 percent; social sciences, 24 percent.
Nationally, the number of jobs will increase by 24 million to 165 million by 2020.
For job seekers, the report emphasized the importance of education. Four out of five of the fastest-growing occupations health care professionals, STEM, education, and community services will require high levels of post-secondary education. The one exception is health care support, where only 59 percent of jobs will require post-secondary education.
To meet the jobs challenge, technical centers at some Vermont high schools, such as Rutland and Essex, are preparing students for more advanced training, available at Vermont Technical College in Randolph, the University of Vermont in Burlington, Green Mountain College in Poultney and other Vermont institutions.
Stafford Technical Center, associated with Rutland High School, will launch its own two-year STEM Academy program next year.
Lyle Jepson, Staffords director, said the Georgetown report is consistent with what employers are seeking from job applicants.
I dont think we can say any longer that you can come out of school with a high school diploma and get a job that will sustain yourself and your family in a way that would be comfortable, Jepson said.
He added that the need for skilled workers will become more acute with the graying of the workforce.
Fieh Chen, a math teacher who is leading the STEM program at Stafford, said his advisory board is made up of representatives from GE Aviation, Omya, Green Mountain Power and other companies.
We really wanted to look for a program that we could create that would give students the skills they need to enter a two- and four-year program after high school to become technicians or engineers, Chen said.
Stafford STEM graduates will be eligible to receive two certifications, including one certification that comes with 12 transferable credits recognized by the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Students with advanced training can go on to high-paying jobs.
For example, Chen said students who earn a two-year degree in their chosen field from Vermont Technical College can expect to earn up to $45,000 a year. A four-year college graduate can earn up to $80,000 a year.
Technician and engineering jobs will be in demand in areas including aerospace, civil, mechanical, electrical and mechanical engineering.
The report noted that at the current level of people seeking post-secondary education, the country will fall 5 million short of workers with post-secondary credentials we will need by 2010.
By 2020, 65 percent of all jobs in Vermont will require a post-secondary education, which is on par with the rest of the country.
Thats in contrast to 1973 when workers with post-secondary education held only 28 percent of jobs nationwide, according to the study. That same year, high school graduates and those without a high school diploma together held 72 percent of all jobs in the U.S. By 2020, that number will have been cut in half to 36 percent.
The 14-page executive summary said leadership, communications and analysis skills are the most valued by employers. That also includes mathematical knowledge as being important or very important to success.
Nicole Smith, a senior economist with the Georgetown Public Policy Institute, said the nation is falling behind in the number of post-secondary graduates.
Weve been creating jobs that require more post-secondary education at a faster rate than weve been creating the students with the post-secondary education and training, Smith said.
Smith said the problem is compounded when students graduate with degrees that dont meet the needs of employers.
Among the segment of the population that will lead the U.S. workforce in the decades to come, the U.S. lags many other industrialized countries. Smith cited a report from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development that said among 25-to-34 year olds, the U.S. ranks 14th in the world in post-secondary degrees at 40 percent. Korea is ranked first at 62 percent.
In Vermont, of the projected 132,000 job openings through the end of the decade, 57,000 will be new jobs and 75,000 will open up due to retirements.
Total Vermont employment is projected to increase 17 percent (between 2010 and 2020) from 340,000 to 397,000 jobs. The report said the percentage increase is on par with the national average.
For Vermont and the rest of the country, Smith said she has concerns related to the rapid growth in health care support jobs.
She said those jobs suffer from two major problems: One is that there are no clearly defined career pathways that really take you from support to professional jobs in health care. The other is that the wages in health care support are just stagnant, she said.
Not all jobs are forecast to see robust growth.
The report found that Vermont will see the weakest job growth in the agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting industry, up just 1 percent. Among specific occupations, by the end of the decade blue-collar jobs will see the slowest growth, increasing 12 percent.
Smith said the loss of blue collar manufacturing jobs nationwide can be traced to automation resulting in increased productivity.
In the late 1970s, she said each worker contributed $100,000 in output to their industry. In 2010, Smith said that with fewer workers that output had tripled to $300,000 per worker. Manufacturing now accounts for 10 to 11 percent of the workforce compared to 30 percent in the late 1960s, Smith said.

An influx of low-end Chinese home appliances to Korea increased by 25 percent last year from 2002, according to a report from the Electronic Industries Association of Korea (EIAK).
EIAK said that South Korea imported U.S. $977.5 million in Chinese electronics products, such as audio equipment, camcorders, and cassette players in 2003, up 25.2 percent from $788.7 million a year ago.
Chinese goods accounted for 27.9 percent of Korea's total home appliance imports last year, up 2 percentage points from 2002.
Armed with cheap labor and strong price competitiveness, Chinese electronics makers are making fast inroads into the Korean market, consolidating its dominance in the low-end electronics market segments.
China is now the second largest home appliance exporter to South Korea after Japan, whose exports amounted to $1.36 billion last year. U.S. home appliance exports to South Korea stood at only $322 million in 2003.
Chinese home appliance exports to Korea has grown 17-fold during the past 11 years, up from $57.4 million in 1992 to $134 million in 1994, and from $426.1 million in 1997 and to $666.4 million in 2001.
By item, South Korea imported audio equipment the most, worth $97.8 million, followed by audio speakers ($93.22 million) and camcorders ($78.32 million).
China is also starting to sell higher-end electronics products in Korea such as digital TVs and flat-panel screens, EIAK said.
Imports of high-end digital TVs such as projection TVs, plasma display panel (PDP) TVs and liquid crystal display (LCD) TVs, amounted to more than $3.6 million last year. Until 2002, no digital TVs were shipped to Korea from China.
Meanwhile, beginning in April, Haier, a Chinese home appliance maker, will begin selling refrigerators with its own brand name to the Korean consumers. Another Chinese electronics maker, TCL Corp., also recently started small-scale sales of its 29-in flat-panel TV sets through Carrefour's outlets. (Korea Times)

HISTORY: Added by State Register Volume 16, Issue No. 6, eff June 26, 1992.
When it is determined that seedling orders for species with limited quantities will exceed the supply available the seedlings of this species will be allocated using a public drawing. This drawing will be held at the Columbia Headquarters of the Commission of Forestry. Names of landowners will be placed in a container. Drawings from this container will continue until the projected supply of seedlings is exhausted and all names have been drawn. Each name will be given a numerical priority.
1. To be eligible for the drawings, orders for seedlings must be received in the S. C. Commission of Forestry Headquarters between July 1 and August 31.
2. The public drawing will be held on the 2nd Tuesday in September at 10:00 a.m. in the lobby of the Forestry Commission Headquarters at 5500 Broad River Road.
3. The number of seedlings that each landowner will receive will be limited to a number set by the Commission of Forestry prior to the drawing.
4. Payment for the seedlings ordered must accompany the order.
5. All landowners whose names are drawn will be advised by mail.
6. Checks for seedlings from landowners whose names are not high enough on the priority list to receive the species preferred will be returned. These landowners will be advised of other species available that they may wish to use as substitutions.
7. Because there is always a possibility that natural disasters may further reduce the number of seedlings available, those landowners whose names are chosen toward the end of the drawing may also be asked to make substitutions.
8. If an allocation is later cancelled by a landowner for any reason the landowner highest on the priority list that did not receive the species desired will be given the option of using the cancelled allocation. This process will be continued until all seedlings are allocated.
The price charged for forest tree seedlings be established each year by the South Carolina State Commission of Forestry. Said price not to exceed the average cost of production of forest tree seedlings. The price list for each sale is to be available from the headquarters of the South Carolina State Commission of Forestry located on Broad River Road, Columbia, South Carolina, Post Office Box 21707, Columbia, South Carolina 29221.

Material: LITTLE FLOWERS
Product Code: 15803220
Part of the PARADE ORIGINALS Collection
Attaching classic Dr. Martens uppers to a heel is not just a simple case of marrying up two components; the resulting hybrid has to have its own integrity and that is what Parade Originals strive for. The vintage-inspired Cut Out T-Bar in Tan Little Flowers leather with cute petal-shaped cut-outs offers contemporary and feminine twists.
- Cut-Out T-Bar Heeled Shoe
- Tan Little Flowers, a full-grain leather with a foil applique of a small flower design on a tan background
- Buckle fastening
- Goodyear-welted, the upper and sole are heat-sealed and sewn together
- Dr. Martens air-cushioned sole with a chunky heel
Made In: Vietnam
This is a Goodyear-welted product using PVC for the welt. The upper and sole are sewn together, not merely glued, like many footwear constructions. This, together with our Z welt-stitch and heat-sealing process, makes it unique to Dr. Martens. This is the only construction that is stitched on the outside and helps footwear take the shape to the foot. The welt is chain stitched to the upper and insole. The outsole is then sewn to the welt around the edge and then heat sealed. This is the sturdiest and most complex of all constructions.
MaterialA full-grain leather with a foil applique of a small flower design on a white background.
SoleThe original Dr. Martens air-cushioned sole, providing underfoot comfort and durability since 1960. It is oil- and fat-resistant, tough and offers good abrasion and slip resistance.
Care Instructions[Little Flowers] = Clean Away dirt using a damp cloth, allow to dry apply a clear wax based shoe polish to restore shine as desired. Take care when polishing - and polish gently with a soft cloth only - aggressive polishing may damage the design.

7 Amazing Photos Taken Underwater
Subscribe to our newsletter
It's estimated that we haven't really explored the oceans that make up 70% of this planet. Sure, we've dipped our weird-shaped toes in them and explored parts, but the vast majority remains unexplored. If you can only take away one thing from this article, think about how little we know and how amazingly awesome the photos we've gotten out of that are. And then think of what else could be out there that we could soon be cluttering up Instagram with...
Water Tigers
Imagine that, one day, you're just a fish swimming happily along when suddenly a massive ball of white fur cannonballs into the water in front of you. You're struggling to see what the hell that was, until the bubbles start to clear and you can see the white fur. Followed by a huge body. Followed by a large tail. Followed by a pair of eyes staring daggers through you. Followed by the huge set of teeth coming straight at you. So, yeah, did you know tigers can swim?
The only possible evolutionary reason for this ability is that Poseidon needed something much more aggressive than the pair of Lionfish he previously employed to guard his trident, and decided that out of a Great White Shark and a Tiger, these were the best choice. And he was kinda right. Also, just like a normal cat, you just know that this guy hates water, and since he's surrounded by umpteen meters of it, he's pissed and going to take it out all on you.
Overly Chummy Whale
"Hey, aren't you that diver guy who owes me $30 from the last time you were down here? You know, because apparently you needed 'train fare' back to the surface or some bullshit like that?" "No, you must have the wrong diver. You might mean Donny. That guy's an asshole; you probably should be aware that you'll never see him and that money again. You aren't the first whale to fall that trick, and you definitely won't be the last."
Not Pictured: The Mini-Heart Attack This Guy Is Having
If this was us, to put it one way, we wouldn't be calmly standing there whilst the circle of sharks surrounding us was growing ever-smaller and smaller. Our reaction might be more along the lines "Ahhh shit. Sharks" Sure, they might not prefer human beings for dinner but seriously. Sharks! Sharks everywhere! We guess this is the difference between us and that specimen of superman-ity pictured in that photo: he goes fearlessly swimming with sharks in his spare time, and we just sit and write about him all day.
The Children of the Coral
Jesus, what is it with the bottom of the sea and creepy looking things? Obviously, however, these are statues and therefore are perfectly harmless. Of course, you also know that is completely bullshit if you've ever watched Dr Who. Go on: dive down to the centre of that circle, and close your eyes. The search and rescue party will never find your body. Or maybe they aren't statues, because it looks like they're wearing some sort of suits, which makes them the creepiest group of performance artists to ever exist. Still, we double dare you to go and dive down to the very bottom of the ocean and say hello to them.
The Cave of Really Sharp Spikes
Admittedly, even we looked at this photo, and immediately thought "Bullshit!" The whole thing just looks like a sound stage for the latest James Cameron epic or Hollywood re-imagining of the Titanic (now with more spikes!). However, it isn't because real life is sometimes awesome like that. Well, we're thinking it is awesome, whilst the poor bastard left to swim through this minefield of impalement is hoping that his equipment doesn't suddenly suffer a malfunction making him start to float or sink. It's also worth pointing out that this photo was taken in the Bahamas, which makes us think: why didn't the guy just decide to "meh, screw it" and go sip mojitos on the beach whilst getting fanned all day? This is proof that this guy is insane, and if he should ever end up in front of a psych board, we'll be presenting this as evidence.
Super Shark Slicing Samurai
If you've ever clicked randomly on the internet at any point over the past few years, firstly you're insane. Don't do that. Your computer must have a ton of viruses and other nasty shit hiding inside it. Secondly, you've probably seen the painting that someone did of Batman wrestling a shark and trying to stab it in the head with a lightsaber whilst the beast is trying to bite his bat-cowl off. Don't worry, we'll wait whilst you go Google it. Done? Great, now our Majesty here is done, well continue telling jokes (allegedly). This photo is the living embodiment of that image, and frankly this is the only time where we think making anyone dress up as Batman would ruin it. If anything it could do with more shark, but that's a bit self-entitled to ask for the person in the picture to swim a bit closer to the beast that could probably eat her inside of two bites.
Where's the TARDIS?
Being a website run almost exclusively by nerds who obsess over pop culture and random factoids for a living, it's impossible for people like us to look at this image and not imagine this as the opening sequence of Dr Who. Which we might have already mentioned once during this article, so at least you know something about that now as well, huh? If you don't know what the title sequence is, it's a swirling vortex of shapes and colours, sort of like what these fish have done here. However, the only element that appears to be missing is the blue police telephone box hurtling down the centre, but we guess that might be a bit much to ask of a group of fish. Frankly, we're just impressed by what they've done here, so we're going to start the fuck up and imagine the Daleks and stuff.
