Amazing Acne Cures with Holistic Remedies
Last Modified on Sep 12, 2014
Very few individuals make it through life without at least a minor breakout of acne. Depending on its severity, acne can contribute to and even cause emotional distress as well as significant damage to the skin. However, effective acne treatments are available and range from conventional treatments to safe, natural cures like apple cider vinegar and hydrogen peroxide.
What is Acne?
A skin condition that occurs as a hair follicle becomes clogged with oil and skin cells, acne is very common, particularly in adolescents. The condition may appear on the face, neck, chest, back and shoulders and varies in degree of severity. Acne may present as both noninflammatory and inflammatory lesions. Noninflammatory acne manifests as whiteheads and blackheads while inflammatory lesions include raised, tender and swollen bumps such as pimples and cysts.
While acne is caused by bacteria and dead cells in the skin, several factors contribute to the formation of acne. Overproduction of oil, irregular shedding of dead skin cells and buildup of bacteria in the skin contribute to acne. Hormones, certain medications and diet can also adversely affect the health of the skin.
Natural Remedies for Skin Breakouts
Acne treatments function to reduce oil production, increase new cell formation, fight infection and reduce inflammation. Several over-the-counter and even prescription medications assist in treating the skin in all of these ways; however, many natural remedies are just as effective, if not more so. While apple cider vinegar, hydrogen peroxide and coconut oil are among the most effective natural treatments, dietary changes as well as other natural supplements are also effective for treating acne.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is one of the top-rated acne remedies available. Apple cider vinegar is an acidic compound that functions to alkalize the body and stabilize the pH, reducing the prevalence of breakouts due to hormonal imbalances. The vinegar is also antibacterial, so it flushes and purifies the system of infection associated with acne.
Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide is considered a natural germicidal agent. Composed of water and oxygen, hydrogen peroxide eradicates infection in the skin by oxidation. Hydrogen peroxide is also effective for detoxing the system and removing dead tissue and debris from the skin.
Coconut Oil
Virgin coconut oil is a natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent. Coconut oil functions to draw the toxins out of the skin, so it may cause a breakout upon initial application. Following the initial "healing crisis," the oil replenishes the skin and even improves the appearance of scaring.
A common condition, acne can manifest in a variety of locations on the body and often causes individuals significant emotional distress. Effective treatments are available, however, and are often more effective the earlier the treatment is started. Consistent treatment significantly lowers an individual's potential for lasting physical and emotional damage.

Don't ever take Accutane. The side effects are too dire and not worth it!! Any decent, informed doctor will tell you this. There are natural remedies out there that are incredibly effective for keeping acne at bay. Apple Cider Vinegar 2 teaspoons in 8 ounces of purified water 3 X a day. B vitamins are also incredible for helping to clear acne, particularly in Coenzymated forms (if you get an initial breakout don't worry - that's a good sign it's clearing things out). Ground Flaxseeds and Hemp seeds are also great for skin. Tea Tree Oil works amazingly well as a spot treatment, it's more powerful than Benzamycin and without the toxic effects. Just know there are natural remedies out there that clear skin! You don't have to rely on medication that will damage your body.

07/31/2014I forgot to mention in my post about acne natural remedies that it is crucial to stay away from all dairy from a cow (goat is ok). It is the most acne producing food and best to stay clear of if you want clear skin!Posted by P.b. (Cape Breton, Ns) on 02/11/2012
I've struggled with adult acne for years but finally got it under control by not using commercial soaps/moisturizers, only handmade soap and a moisturizing mix of grapeseed oil, castor oil, jojoba oil, lavender & tea tree & lemongrass essential oils. However, sometimes even though I haven't changed any of my skin treatments, I've experienced breakouts.
Recently I connected the breakouts to starting a new vitamin supplement. I stopped the supplement and the breakouts stopped. A similar thing had happened about a year ago and I compared the ingredients of the two supplements (one was Vitamin C and the other was a multi). The only thing they seemed to have in common was silicon dioxide. I checked the supplements I take that don't seem to bother me (flax oil, magnesium, Vit D, and another brand of Vit C) and none of them have silicon dioxide in them. It's hard to be sure what exactly it is, but I just wanted people to consider that perhaps their supplements are causing breakouts!Replied by Skinnythia

02/20/2012Sometimes, just changing your soap, lotion, cream, medicine, make-up, what ever, will cause a period of break out. You have to give yourself an adjustment period. If it does continue, you know it is the new product, habit, whatever, and to discontinue.Posted by Regulator555 (Grand Rapids, Mi, Usa) on 06/02/2010
I suffered from acne for years. As I got older, it got worse. After trying numerous OTC remedies, at great expense, I started doing research on what the problem could be. Chemicals! SLS/ALS's trigger acne. Propylene glycol triggers acne. Parabens trigger acne. Mineral oil triggers acne. The list goes on and on. All these chemicals were linked to my bad skin. So, I stopped using everything - shampoo, face/body wash, toothpaste, deodorant, lotions, creams, etc. I started over. K.I.S.S. - keep it super simple. Natural is the key with the fewest ingredients possible. There are cosmetics out there that are natural and pigmented with fruit. There are soaps out there that are just made with castille soap. Baking soda for deodorant. Read the labels - you'd be surprised. The stuff is even in our food. Moisturize with an organic oil (yes, you can put natural oil on your face if you have acne). Look into essential oils and adding a few drops. Eliminate everything and then start adding in a few natural things. After I eliminated all the chemicals, my skin cleared. I get a zit here and there (PMS related), but rarely. Read your labels! Note: the cosmetic industry is self-regulated. Even if it says "natural" it may not be. Don't be fooled - read the ingredients.Replied by Karenmarie

04/16/2011[YEA] Thoes harsh chemicals are horrible for skin and hair, not only that but our health as well. I've been using African black soap to cleanse my face and body, it's free of all harsh SLS's, parabens, is high in natural glycerin and has been used traditionaly by African women to wash lol babies! The smell is very earthy and it lathers like a body wash. I wet my face and hands with Luke warm water rub the bar untill it lathers slightly and lightly massage my face in little circles for about 1 min, rinse well with a cloth. I also like to use a toner I made out of boiled( and cooled) water, organic apple cider vinegar with mother, peppermint tea and lavender oil. To make:
Boil 3 cups of water
Throw in 1 peppermint tea bag
3 drops of lavender EO
Let stand untill cool
Add 1/4 cup ACV
The smell of the ACV dissipates once it's dried, if you have very sensitive skin you can use less ACV. I also moisturize with extra virgin organic coconut oil, use VERY VERY sparingly, focusing on your dry areas and under the eyes!! That's my daily skin care and I finally don't have to wear any of that foundation anymore without being embarassed of red patches and zit everywhere!Replied by Sara

I am an aesthetician and treat acne clients on a regular basis. The first thing I teach my clients is how to wash their face. When washing your face use a good quality product and apply it using a light hand, don't press or push to hard. You do not want to stimulate more oils by pressing to hard. Use a very light touch in circular motions for 1 to 2 minutes. Yes, 1 or 2 minutes, you want to cleanse the skin and the pores. Always use a clean wash cloth with warm (not hot) water to rinse your face. It is important to use a wash cloth to pick up the oils from the face as well as exfoliating . (this is one thing I find that most of my acne clients don't do), but when you think of it we use some kind of cloth to wash our dishes, our cars, or the counter top. Washing in the morning and evening should be enough. So make sure you have plenty of clean wash cloths on hand.Replied by Ellen

06/28/2009To add to the previous post regarding washcloths: baby wipes work great for removing makeup/washing face/exfoliating and are disposable!Replied by Nancy7711

08/03/2010I'm a Registered Nurse and had an Anti-Aging Center. I agree with the esthetician who states that proper method of cleansing the skin. The reason you should use a 100% cotton wash cloth is because the cotton fibers pick up the dead skin cells (which baby wipes do not do). It's these dead skin cells that help contribute to clogging the pores. You will definitely start seeing a difference with this method. It also stimulates a small bit of collagen (desperately wanted as we age)Replied by Aubrey

02/03/2011[YEA] I haven't ever had severe acne, but I tend to get a lot of blackheads and breakouts every once in a while. I have started this simple regimine and it has worked terrifically when I follow through with it.
I wash my face with non-foaming wash in the shower, and once with only water before bed. Once a week I apply AVC to my entire face besides the eye area. It dried out pimples but not the rest of your face.
For bacne I use naturally made soap and a pumice stone. It works great.
Also applying an organic lotion in the morning helps with acne and bacne. I use Nubian Organic Honey and Blackseed healing lotion. It smells good too. :)Replied by Sherrya

05/25/2011however for some (myself included) all the washing in the world, does absolutely nothing, after spndig hundreds on everything form over the counter face washes to holy expensive prescriptions, using 100% cotton wash cloths, baby wipes, even a $250 sonic facial brush, absolutely no results. In my case my nodulocystic acne is purely hormonal based, the only thing that has ever given me results is an expensive pill, (yes I have been to estheticians GALORE, spent more money then a care to admit, not result other then painful peeling.. ) so unfortunatley washing is only a guarentee if you suffer from MILD acne or simply the occassional black head. sorry I hate to be the little black raincloud but some of us are truly screwed....Replied by Sunny April

01/13/2012To Sherrya from San Antonio, Tx. My son had terrible acne all his adult life and finally he was convinced that he had rosacea (sp?). I also had it and was using a prescription called "metrogel". It was the only thing that cleared my acne and the redness of my face. My son's face is wonderfully clear now that he is using the metrogel and he shaved his beard off and he looks so good. It does have a mild antibiotic in it, but it was the only thing that helped us. Now I wash my face with tea tree oil soap and if I have a pimple, I put iodine on it and it clears up pretty fast.Replied by Lindsay

06/05/2012I can't stress how much thoroughly washing my face has made a difference in the feel of my skin. Normally I would lather the soap on my face and immediately rinse. The surface of my face would get clean, but keep in mind most of the skin on our faces is about seven layers deep. It takes more than a quick rinse to thoroughly cleanse.
Now I lather and massage in a circular motion for a couple of minutes. Sometimes if I had been wearing a lot of makeup or something that day I will wash my face twice.
After the first time you do this you will literally feel an immediate difference. Your skin will feel deep-cleaned.Posted by Stella on 07/01/2008
Here are a few tips to help control acne. Whenever I sway from these I pay the price.
Acne Tips:
- Wash face Twice in a row
- Rinse face Thirteen splashes
- Exfoliate once a week
- Have good oral hygiene
- Plucking eyebrows invites bacteria-clean the area well after
- Don't bite inside your cheeks or lips
- Use a water filter on the shower
- Change pillowcases every other day (I use aloe soaked pillowcases)
- Do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets and use only chemical free laundry soap
- Use chemical free shamp/Cond and hair products (what you put on your hair ends up on your face)
- Clean your phone often (a must)
- Use a natural deodorant
- Use chemical free hand-soap and moisturizer (what you put on your hands ends up on your face)
- Wash your hands after you touch your pets
- Wash your hands and chin after you brush your teeth because bacteria from your mouth drips on your face
- Never use Old make-up
Do Not leave your face wash and shamp/cond in the shower, store it in a dry placeReplied by Mzt

Why? I have no idea but I have tried every remedy in the book for acne and it would not cure it. From benzaclyn, proactiv, retina micro, hydrogen peroxide, acv, etc. You name it, I prolly tried it. So one day I decided to get away from regular deodorant and go to a natural deodorant because of the Aluminum in deodorant. Little did I know days later my face was clear and has been clear for 2 months now. It has been the clearest it has ever been since I was a kid. I went to my local supermarket and found this deodorant called Toms Natural Deodorant and it is Aluminum free. Maybe the ingredients in my deodorant I had always used was the cause for my acne. I wish I knew this in high school! Try it, It's amazing!Posted by Kris (Omaha, Nebraska) on 09/19/2007
[YEA] My decade-long bout with facial acne ended when I (1) Quit using liquid make-up, and (2) Started using a facial wash with alpha hydroxy acid. My absolute favorite is the brand Alpha Hydrox Foaming Facial Wash. Awesome AND inexpensive. I think that quitting using concealers and liquid make-up to cover up the skin is crucial to stopping the acne cycle. Even if a liquid make-up claims to be non-codemogenic it may aggravate the acne. For a while I used powder make-up, which didn't cause break-outs, but now I rarely even use that.Replied by Ginny

[YEA] STOP USING SLS (SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE, SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE) AND ANY SULFATES IN YOUR BATH PRODUCTS!!! This ingredient is found EVERY body and face soap...and EVERY shampoo.

01/21/2011I agree with stopping the use anything containing sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). I got canker sores in my mouth repeatedly for a month until I switched to a sensitve toothpaste (pronamel or sensodyne are good and inexpensive) and my canker sores vanished w/in 1 day - the only different ingredient was the absence of SLS. Read up on it and SLS is a strong detergent used in toliet cleaner/bath&kitchen cleaner to make the "foaming" soapy action... Everything has this - shampoo, bottled soaps, toothpaste, and all household cleaners. I started developing cysts and dandruff problems on my head after a while and was shedding a lot of hair, I found some good shampoos - David Babaii's Wildaid (from ULTA) and Renpure Organics (from Walgreens) - they don't have SLS and have safer, less harmful ingredients for the environment - my scalp problems vanished w/in 1 week and I haven't had problems for the last 2 years since I've cut SLS out of my life.
I was on Retin-A for years w/o much help, still broke out and it turned my face red. Using face wash w/o SLS has reduced my acne outbreaks to only 3-4 days out of the month when I'm cycling, all other times my face is pretty clear and I don't have to apply harsh chemicals anymore.

[YEA] Lots of great acne tips here. If you drink 1 tbs baking soda in a glass of water and 1 or 2 tbs apple cider vinegar in a glass of water, it will make your body alkaline (rather than acidic - the US diet is almost 100% acidic which promotes... Cancer and disease). An alkaline body actually makes your body a very poor host for disease and bad bacteria. Having an acidic body is like posting your houseparty on Facebook... They ALL show up. Incluing acne.
I would also suggest a wakeup and before going to bed rinse of your face with a cottonball or cottonpad dampened with witch hazel. It gently removes a lot of the oil from your skin without drying you out. Keep a small bottle of it with you during the day and it is great for a midday removal of any oil that may accumulate on your face.
Research the skin vitality vitamins, minerals and supplements also. A base vitamin regime of a multi vit/min, vit C, vit E, vit D will help keep that healthy glow to your visage and prevent you from getting sick with all the colds and flu that come around. The US diet is very deficient in vitamins and minerals, one of the reasons that hypo/hyper thyroidism is so prevalent. 90% of Americans checked have low levels of vit D (get more Sun... But choose short exposures), magnesium and vit B12. In the past 30 years the soil has been depleted, so you cannot trust the produce to provide vits/mins anymore. Some vits/mins are as much as 90% less than 3 decades ago. Take your vitamins.
Also be aware of the 3 stooges that appear in virtually all processed food and drink. Aspartame, MSG and high fructose corn syrup. They are excitotoxins which play havoc on your digestive, neuro and endocrine systems... Which could manifest as acne breakouts. If you switch to an organic diet you will find you eat less (because your body is geting nutrition and doesn't need to signal you to gorge so that it gets the proper amount of nutrients).
Sleep much? 8 hours or more per night to ensure that your face gets the restorative and healing rest it needs. Research good sleepijng methods and be sure that you have a comfortable, dark (wear a face mask if necessary) and peaceful place to rest.
Good luck!Posted by Victor (Nyc, Usa) on 08/30/2010
[YEA] Hello Ted,
I used a form of topical accutane (tretinoin cream) for about six months. Discontinued use after noticing excessive hair thinning and cysts on wrists and ear. I've been off it for eight months. Hair is still shedding. I've been reading that accutane users have congested livers (stones) or cirrhosis conditions. Is this true? I read your entry to another accutane victim and have been on the alkalizing regime for two weeks. Hair is still shedding, but my eyes and skin look better. Thank you.Replied by Randy
Myrtle Beach, Sc/usa
07/27/2011[BETTER BUT NOT CURED] I do agree about the alkalizing. Whenever I am more consistent drinking my sea salt, baking soda, and lemon juice drinks I can tell my face is clearer. One other thing that has helped me is making sure I take a couple tabespoons of granulated lecithin each day to help flush out those rancid oils in my body. I also use ACV on my face with a cotton swab and I do not dilute it. I've struggled with adult acne for years and have tried many things but what I've mentioned above seems to have helped me more than anything else.

[YEA] At 51, I continue to have the occasional pimple, often on my nose, sometimes on my lower lip or elsewhere. Recently, while doing some yard work, I accidentally sliced a piece of aloe vera from a plant. Having heard about its medicinal value, I tried applying the sap on a fast growing pimple on my lower lip. I reapplied the invisible sap four times in the course 24 hours, and twice the next day. The pimple just evaporated. I've since tried it repeatedly with the same results. I'm delighted. This was must faster than anything I've experienced before. My garden aloe is free. Like I said, the sap is invisible. There is an initial odor, but it fades quickly. I recommend trying it.Posted by Anna (Corona, CA)
[YEA] Pure Aloe Vera gel, applied topically two or three times a day does wonders for acne! Though you may need a good moisturizer, even with oily skin, because the aloe dries your skin right up.

This side dish will make an excellent presentation for company and is delicious as well.
This was easy and yummy. I added gorgonzola but next time might try asiago or parrano. Either way, the cheese makes it!
This is a very simple dish to make, and it is very flavorful. Try adding some pepper to enhance the taste. A great summer side dish!
Delicious, quick, easy. I had to use more water than called for, cause it dried out. This is a favourite side dish at our house.

Creating Positive and Enduring Change
With contributions of nearly $200,000, our fifth year of fundraising for China's orphaned children has created many reasons to rejoice. The school children we sponsor participate in art and music programs and excel both in the classroom and in sports. Children with special needs are enrolled in learning and vocational training programs. And while babies and young children who might otherwise have lost a chance at life are cared for by professional nurses and by loving, nurturing "Grandmas," others are healing after surgery to repair a heart defect or cleft palate.
Transformation in the children's lives is most joyfully apparent among the girls and boys who left the orphanage this year to join foster families. In our foster-care program-cited by experts as a model of its kind in China-foster homes are much more than a substitute for orphanage care. In this report, read about how the care we make possible creates loving foster families not just for children, but for the parents, grandparents, and others who open their hearts and homes to a child.
This year, while we witnessed terrible loss and destruction at home and abroad, we took faith in love's power to renew. The young lives taking root within foster families are pioneers of a brave new world, a world where
is the common ground, and
a loving home
the common cause.
FCC Programs Reach Far and Wide - Children in 40 Orphanages in 10 Provinces Receive Care
As in past years, in our 2000-2001 campaign we've been able to significantly develop existing programs and add important new ones. This year, we achieved a key goal: We assisted China's orphanage directors in shaping the design and direction of quality foster care. With our support over one hundred children joined foster families this year and six orphanages established new foster care programs. Placement within a caring foster family has proven to yield enormous benefit for children. We are especially proud of the growth of this initiative.
The growth of our programs means a brighter future for many more children.
2000 - 2001 Appeal: A New Record in Giving
Our 2000-2001 campaign was impressive both for the generosity of our donors and for the growth of our orphanage assistance programs. Contributions of $192,500 from hundreds of individual donors around the country made it possible for us to renew funding for all the programs we sponsor, and to develop new projects, extending our reach to many more children in additional orphanages.
With a grant we received near the end of our 2000 fiscal year and the many contributions received in 2001, we were able to distribute a total of $222,000 to fund orphanage projects this year. Our primary partner organization is The Amity Foundation, a highly respected Chinese non-profit, non-governmental agency in Nanjing. Through Amity we provide a range of vital and direct services to children. Of the total distribution this year, $98,000 was directed to renew our funding for ongoing foster care, schooling, nursing teams, and the Grandmas program.
New projects developed with
The Amity Foundation
were funded with $114,000. In addition, FCC made a grant of $10,000 to
Holt International Foundation
to sponsor a new foster care program.
Major Gains in Foster Care Initiatives
I have to say it again that the children in the foster care program in Nanjing have changed so much. The attachment and the love they have now with their foster families is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and felt in my professional experience.
- Wu An An, Amity's Director of Social Welfare
Foster care programs have brought the most dramatic change to the lives of children who might otherwise languish in institutional care. Within China, Amity has been in the forefront of promoting the benefits of foster care to province and orphanage officials. Developing a model of quality long-term foster care, Amity introduced a pilot project for children from the orphanage in Nanjing with FCC sponsorship last year.
Orphanage Directors See the Profound Difference Family Care Means for Children -
After a seminar on foster care led by Amity in October 2000, many orphanage officials asked Amity to help them establish programs based on this model of child-centered family care. At a follow-up conference in September 2001, representatives of more than fifteen orphanages expressed their unanimous assessment: All the children living with foster families had changed dramatically from their time in the orphanages. Foster care had given these children new lives.
At present, FCC sponsors Amity foster care projects in fifteen orphanages in five provinces. This year alone 100 children joined foster families in new programs in Changzhou, Jiande, Nantong, Qidong, Wuxi, and Wuhan. With FCC support more than 200 children in all, many with special needs, are thriving in the loving care of foster families.
With our interest in foster care and our belief that this is the best alternative for children who are not likely to be adopted, we also joined
Holt International Foundation
in sponsoring a new foster care project in Guizhou Province. In February, FCC provided $10,000 to begin foster care for children from a Gueyang City orphanage. Reports and photos from Holt reflect the positive effects of the nurturing care and love these children receive from their foster families.
Helping Children of All Ages
From nurses caring for newly arrived babies to vocational training for teens, FCC's programs with Amity seek to ensure the well being of children of all ages and provide them with tools for the future
In addition to the increase in foster care over the past year, we have seen significant growth in all of our programs, serving many more children and bringing effective support to a growing number of orphanages.
Corrective Surgery and Medical Treatment -
With the surgeries and medical care we fund children are overcoming life-threatening conditions and serious illnesses. The extraordinary generosity of our donors made it possible for FCC to sponsor the full cost of surgery and medical treatment for ninety children this year. Vital treatment included critical surgeries for heart conditions, cleft palate, and clubbed feet, hospitalizations, and medication.
More Grandmas More Healthy, Happy Babies -
Making a tremendous difference in children's lives, Amity "Grandmas", retired nurses, doctors and teachers, give nurturing care to babies and special needs children and training to orphanage caregivers. Chenzhou, Hefei, Jiande, Lianyungang, and Yinchuan came into the Grandmas Program this year. With renewed funding for Grandmas already at work, we now sponsor 70 Grandmas in 16 orphanages.
Orphanage Improvements Make a Vital Difference -
Heaters to offset the chill of wintry days, washers and dryers to ensure clean clothing, new cribs and bedding, sterilizers and medical equipment, toys, and rehabilitation equipment improve the quality of life for children who must call an orphanage home. Purchases of these materials and equipment were made for six orphanages this year.
Intensive Care Nursing Teams Save Lives -
Benefiting newborns, infants at risk and special needs children, the Nursing Team program was initiated by FCC with Amity as a pilot project in Nanjing in 1998. FCC now sponsors teams of four to six nurses to provide intensive care nursing to babies and children in the orphanages in Nanjing, Tongling, Yangzhou, and Yinchuan in Ningxia Autonomous Region. Plans are underway to create nursing teams in additional orphanage locations in the coming year.
Education Is Critical -
Education, critical for the future of orphanage children, is restricted by required school fees. We are now sponsoring 300 children, paying their fees to attend community schools, almost double the number from last year. This year the orphanages in Chenzhou, Lishui, Ma'Anshan, and Tianjin, as well as the Changsha #2 orphanage joined our schooling program, bringing the total of participating orphanages to 17. In addition to students attending primary and middle schools, our sponsorships include children in schools for the blind and deaf, and older students in vocational schools, art institutes, and nursing school.
Orphanage Site Visits Crucial to the Success of our Programs
Orphanage site visits provide the detailed reports we need in order to improve and expand our work, and give our contributors assurance that their gifts are well spent. These frequent site visits allow our liaisons in China and orphanage directors and caregivers to have the one-to-one contact that keeps our programs current and meaningful. Each year members of our Board and Charitable Initiatives Committee also visit orphanages receiving our support.
In November, FCC parent and tireless fundraiser Karen Jani revisited three Hunan Province orphanages. Having visited these same orphanages in September 2000, Karen was in a particularly good position to evaluate the effectiveness of our programs. Thirteen months after her first visit, Karen observed enormous changes in the children.
The differences in the special needs children under the care of the Grandmas in Changsha were amazing. The children had made great strides in their development and in their ability to compensate for their disabling conditions. In Yiyang, the children in foster care were clearly cherished by their foster parents. Karen was impressed with the community the foster families had created among themselves, giving the children a real experience of the extended family network so important to a child's sense of belonging.
Amity's Director of Social Welfare Visits FCC
In May, Amity's Director of Social Welfare Division, Ms. Wu An An visited us in New York for a week-long series of planning sessions. The driving force behind Amity's orphanage programs and widely respected by orphanage officials for her knowledge and expertise, Ms. Wu spoke about Amity's orphanage work at FCC's annual Culture Day, and met with FCC's Board and Charitable Initiatives Committee to review projects and plans for future collaboration. With the development of rehabilitation services for orphanage children a goal of both FCC and Amity, she visited pediatric rehabilitation facilities and met with professionals in the field.
Commitment to the Future
FCC remains committed to doing as much as we can to create positive and enduring change in the lives of children in China's orphanages. We are determined to renew the support for the many children benefiting from ongoing programs. But, we also want to see our programs continue to grow. Many more children wait to attend school or join a foster family. Children are waiting now for life-saving surgeries, or operations to correct birth defects.
Your help is needed to carry on this vital work.
One hundred percent of funds contributed to FCC Orphanage Assistance are directed to our programs in China. Families with Children from China retains no portion of the donations we receive. Merchandise sales supplement membership dues to cover all fundraising and administrative costs.

The National Security Agency broke the law and ignored privacy protections thousands of times in each of the years since Congressional leaders expanded the agency's power in 2008, according to a new report citing documents leaked by Edward Snowden.
View full story
The USA government is out of control so its no surprise its NSA and PRISM are out of control acting against your own constitution and international law and abusing anti terrorist procedures to enslave or imprison innocent people.
Maybe American want to act like the new colonial in the world because most of world countries are independent and protected by United Nation as these countries are members in UN list.
if we spy on any one we are called a crazy or a stalker what makes the USA NSA or CIA any different it does'nt.
Nobody knows the Law anymore. Secret Laws being passed by governments which do not feel it is correct to share these Laws with their population.
The interpretations of loosely worded Laws are being abused to the max by all sorts of 3 letter agencies, not just NSA.
These revelations are becoming nothing of a shock or a surprise anymore. The notion of our governments acting for the people are long gone, a myth nowadays.
What's more laughable, is the fact they tell Americans that the US is the "land of rules & laws"...
Un til a Daniel Ellsberg, Bradley Manning, Ed Snowden, Julian Assange blow the whistle on their conniving charade.

UK COMMON LAW,A LAWFUL REBELLION. ( On You Tube)
...details how our governments are not really what we think they are anymore. In fact, they are nothing more than corporations; not figuratively, but actually corporations...
I think the outing of the truth which actually implicates those truly behind 9/11 will be the only thing to enrage and wake the American people from their stupor. If this was the Seventies this would have been all over the news with congress asking for the impeachment of Obama. That's how much things have changed in this society. We no longer have investigative journalists we have Teleprompter readers that just repeat the same sound bites every half hour. Our society has been massaged into not caring about anything let only anything to do with real politics.
That's the thing I think our government is really afraid of. It's not revalations about their spying on us. Americans have become to complacent to do anything about the spying. We've all know about it for a while thanks to the so called conspiracy theory people. We were warned well in advance of this, but most people don't listen. They brand the ones spouting the truth as crazy.
What I think they are really afraid of is the truth about 9/11 coming to light sooner than they planned. I think the public will be dumbfounded and enraged. That's when the oligarcs will bring the "hammer" down. Get ready.
Anyone who has been paying attention knows the powers that run this country have been planning this for decades.
I agree with you. The patriot act was rolled out 40 days after 9/11. This was a 363 page document. You tell me that they draft this from scratch in 40 days? Of course not it was prepared before hand and conveniently introduced afterwards. That also raises the question if this was prepared in advance they must have (and I say this conservatively) advanced knowledge of 9/11.
What's more laughable, is the fact they tell Americans that the US is the "land of rules & laws"...
Un til a Daniel Ellsberg, Bradley Manning, Ed Snowden, Julian Asange blow the whistle on their conniving charade.
When they have to use sooo much language to explain what they did or not, you know is all Lip Service. They Lie. ALL Governments do. US is no better than Libya, Egypt, Chile (when it was) or any other dictatorship.
Th is is why Edward Snowden is a HERO!!
The truly scrary thing is this is only the tip of the iceberg. Anyone who has been paying attention knows the powers that run this country have been planning this for decades. They have forseen the path that our society is headed down and has been putting into place the apparatus to squash any and every voice of discent.
They have used poverty to put a strangle hold on the masses. They have taken these steps knowing full well the consequences.
If you want a glimpse of what this nation is headed towards, take a look at what goin on in Egypt today. What will we do when they declare marshal law here?
[quote name='Ari Levin' time='16.08.2013 14:17']The US government is going in one direction but this generation of American youth are going in completely another.
If they are activists then yes I agree with you. However, if they are they ones bought up on a diet of COD, generation kill etc. glorifying American imperialism I would have to say no. American media, games etc. have done much to to reduce critical though and respect for other cultures.
The US government is going in one direction but this generation of American youth are going in completely another. They seek alternatives to the two party US political machine that guarantees Neo-Cons & Zionists stay in power in the US. They are aware of the world around them & are Internet savvy & can get their news from anywhere they want. This break is significant & permanent. They have largely turned off their TV's & turned on their laptops & are accessing the world. There is hope folks & it's squarely with America's youth.
@ Zina, Total surveillance over its populace is the dream of every government with quite a few working toward that aim. Its a very comfortable feeling believing that its not possible to spy on you in such a manner or that your governments wouldn't do that or if they did it was because there was a good reason! Governments are in the business of knowing what their populations think. How do you think they get elected!!
In Russia some IT analysts say that what Edward Snowden said are not true and impossible to do. They call him a CLOWN :))
If the IT analysts you refer to actually understood the sheer magnitude of the NSA secret surveillance program PRISM, they might not use such language. Snowden had top security clearance. He had access to everything. He was formerly employed by the CIA. What he discovered altered his views & he felt compelled to blow the whistle on & report as a public servant. A 'clown' is hardly what Edward Snowden is. A hero is a more apt description.
This self-policing & internal auditing is a show, complete theater. It's akin to the Freedom of Information Act. If a party writes to the FBI or CIA for information, the agencies can just say no file exists pertaining to that request. There's no independent legal oversight, congressional or otherwise. That is PRECISELY the danger, Americans think they have a democratic government of checks & balances when THERE ARE NO CHECKS AND THERE IS NO BALANCE. This secret govt within the govt has no pomp & circumstance. It is totalitarian in its ideology, paternalistic & loathes anyone or anything seeking to check it's power.

PHOENIX (AP) - The Arizona Diamondbacks have designated former closer J.J. Putz for assignment.
Putz had a career-high 45 saves while helping Arizona win the NL West title his first season in 2011, but has battled injuries the past two seasons. The Diamondbacks signed Addison Reed during the offseason and moved Putz into a setup role.
The 37-year-old went 1-1 with a 6.50 ERA in 18 appearances and spent time on the disabled list with forearm tightness. Putz has 189 saves in 12 seasons, including 83 in four years with the Diamondbacks.
Arizona recalled outfielder Ender Inciarte from the seven-day concussion disabled list to fill Putz's spot on the roster. He hit .205 in 34 games with the Diamondbacks this season.

MediumI'm not the biggest 3-D fan in the world, but I do love when they take old footage and blend it with new stuff. So seeing Rod Serling brought to life was pretty cool. And the 3-D wasn't that bad — it was kinda cool with the paintings. Just wish that the one scene with the hand pushing out of the painting through the brown paper wrapping had been in 3-D. That was damn creepy and if it had come popping out of the screen, it woulda been really cool. But actually the story was really compelling tonight with the visions of the woman who was literally stabbed in the back while her child was watching. My only problem was that I so knew the murderer was John Shea the second I saw him. Sorry, dude, but once you've played Lex Luthor, I'm immediately susp

Football clubs I support, Arsenal FC and Real Madrid, they just broke my heart a little when they sold Ozil. Internationally Die Mannschaft!
I also enjoy reading good books, historical fiction is a favorite. I'm a world war II buff and a Russophile, my girlfriend is Russian and I love her very much.

Just for Fun (Forward)
I like football, I've played since I was 6 years old. I got scouted at the age of 13-14 by a local amateur club to come try out for their team the CISC Samurai, after the scout saw me score 9 goals in one game which our team won 12-3. He found out who my parents were and we all talked after that game. The next week I was playing competitive soccer for the CISC Samurai and we took 2nd place in an Alaska cup tournament, the next season we got the cup. I played right, center, and left attacking mid. I also occasionally played as a lone striker/target-man because of my height I was an aerial threat and had a powerful header, I could also score with both feet quite naturally. I was often our set piece/freekick specialist. I would play as a keeper cause of my height and reflexes at times too. There are no competitive teams to play for as an adult in Alaska, so I take intermediate soccer as a class at my university so I can keep playing. Most people who also take the intermediate soccer class aren't that good. Some of the players however, are just a talented maybe even more so than me, which is great cause I love a challenge. So now in that class I get to feel like a ronaldo/messi and an ozil/xavi when I play, but it's all just for fun and exercise. Scoring goals used to be my specialty when I played for the CISC Samurai. I always try and score a goal when I play but I've matured into a player who now likes to be the play-maker an provide assists.

Neenah Paper To Call $58 Million Of 2014 Notes On November 15
Neenah Paper, Inc. (NYSE: NP) announced today that it has elected to conduct an early redemption (the "Partial Redemption") of $58 million of its 7.375% Senior Notes due in 2014 (the "Notes"). The Notes will be purchased at par value on November 15, 2012 and will be financed by a combination of borrowings using the Company's existing revolving credit facility and a new $30 million term loan.

Bonnie Lind, Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer stated, "Neenah's balance sheet is strong and our debt is well within targeted levels.

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., trustee of the Notes, is processing the transmittal of a notice of Partial Redemption to holders of record of the Notes. The Partial Redemption will result in savings of over $500,000 per quarter in interest expense.
