By James Slater: What boxing fan out there has not heard of the legendary Angelo Dundee? Fully deserving of his legendary, even iconic status, the mastermind who guided, most famously, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, George Foreman (in the latter stages of Foremans career) and Michael Nunn, turns 90-years-of age today. Still sharp as a tack according to former World Boxing Association (WBA) heavyweight champ David Haye, who worked with Dundee recently, out at the world famous 5th Street Gym in Miami, Dundee has retained his passion for the sport he has given so much to. It is his work with the two brilliant boxers, Ali and Leonard, that Angie will always be remembered most fondly for, however. Who would dispute the contention that Leonard may well have lost that first, amazing fight with Tommy Hearns without the impassioned words from Angelo of - Youre blowing it now son, youre blowing it? The power of such a motivational speech cannot be underestimated. Indeed, in an interview this writer was fortunate enough to have had with Sugar Ray earlier this year, the former multi-weight king had nothing but good things to say about his former trainer/corner-man. Angies value, his true value, was in the corner, Leonard told me. Angie had the ability to cope with situations that would drive another trainer crazy! He always seemed to have the perfect sound-bite - youre blowing it, son! (from the Hearns classic of 1981), or dont go to sleep on me! (from the Marvin Hagler upset in 87). Angie would never let you see desperation in his face, but he would get the message across. Angie was so poised in the corner. I love Angelo. We had some great times together. And as for Ali, Angelo came invaluably to his aid on a number of occasions. In fact, the legend of The Greatest wouldnt, in all likelihood, have even been born if it werent for Dundee. Surely every boxing fan knows of the story regarding the first Sonny Liston fight, from 1964? The young Cassius Clay, as he was then known, was all set to pull out of the fight at the end of the fourth round due to problems with his vision. Clay shouted at Angelo to take his gloves off so he could prove to the world there was dirty work afoot. Only thanks to Dundees cool and experience did the fight not end with Liston the victor. Sonny may well have had something illegal on his gloves, but the fact is that if Clay had quit there would almost certainly have never been a rematch and an all too receptive public would have believed the Champs accusations of Clay being a coward. Sonny was no fool, and in reality he would never have gone near this fast, sharp-punching boxer again, for fear of certain defeat. Just imagine what this would have meant: the Muhammad Ali that we all revere so much today would, in all probability, not have existed. And Ali himself, as with Sugar Ray, never had a bad word to say about Angie. He made sure he stuck with Angelo right to the very end. He never got rid of Dundee, Alis former doctor, Ferdie Pacheco once stated. Indeed. Dundee brought out the very best in Ali a whole number of times; his calmness in the corner once again serving Ali no end in that brutal third fight with Joe Frazier in Manila. Legend has it (see Thomas Hauser in the brilliant "Thrilla in Manila" documentary) an exahusted Ali whispered to Dundee after the conclusion of the 14th-round, "cut 'em off." Ali had hit the wall. What did Angelo do? He kept his cool and watered his fighter down, telling him the 15th-round would be where "we seperate the men from the boys!" My own favourite example of the amazing 90-year-olds brilliance is from the night Ali fought Earnie Shavers, however. This fight took place in September 1977 and by this time Ali was a ring-worn thirty five year old who had been in many gruelling ring battles. He would need any extra help he could get if he was to prevail against the murderous punching Shavers. Thanks once again to Angelo he got some. Due to a new experiment, the scorecards of the judges would be shown to the folks back home watching on T.V. They would actually be able to see how the rounds were being scored as they went by. This wasnt something the astute Dundee failed to capitalise on. He arranged for someone he could trust to be in attendance at the fight and watch the T.V coverage on a small portable T.V. This guy would then see exactly what the fans at home saw, namely the scores of all three judges after every round. He would then signal to Angelo whether or not Ali won the round or if it was scored evenly. Dundee could then tell Ali how to approach each coming round. Picture the scene; Angelo leans over Ali and either whispers Ok, Champ, you can take it easy this round, you won the last one. Or; Suck it up, Champ they gave the last round to the other guy!. What a massive advantage! There is no doubt in my mind that this helped Ali win the fight. Im sure youre aware the final points totals were mighty close. If Earnie Shavers had had someone as quick witted in his corner as Ali had in his, then just maybe he would have become the heavyweight champion of the world. Today, when he reflects on the achievements he made in boxing, Angelo must be very proud. As modest as ever, though, Angie never, ever boasts. Happy 90th birthday to a true boxing hero!

China, pit bull mix missing for 8 months, is reunited with owner thanks to dog's microchip
Dog missing since June
INDIANAPOLIS - A pit bull mix and her owner have been reunited after eight months apart, thanks to the dog's microchip.
Chris Harris says his dog, China, escaped through a hole in his fence in mid-June.
Harris posted fliers, drove the surrounding neighborhood and went to the city shelter looking for China.
"I thought she was gone," Harris said.
Just last week, Indianapolis Animal Care and Control called Harris to say someone had turned in China. They found Harris's information using the dog's microchip.
"You don't expect a phone call like that," Harris said. "It was mind-blowing. My instinct was just 'OK, I'm on my way.'"
It's unclear where China spent her time away from home.
"I wonder a lot if it was good, bad, but I think at this point, it's best not to know," Harris said.
Animal Care and Control told RTV6 China's case emphasizes the importance of microchipping pets. It costs $10 at the city shelter on South Harding Street.
Harris said he was skeptical about microchipping, but now is a believer.
"I couldn't be happier," Harris said.

The vitamins added to enriched white flour are only added to make it nutritionally equivalent to those that are present in whole grain flour. It does not have more vitamins than whole wheat flour and is also missing all the fiber found in whole wheat. There is a government mandate that it has to be added to all bleached white flour in the US. It is added at the mill.
It's pretty easy to avoid if you stay away from processed food. You can avoid it completely by buying whole wheat products and organic products. If my kids are dying for a white flour cookie for a change, I buy from imported food store. Gluten free is the way to go when in doubt, like on an airplane or restaurant. It's easy these days.
To the poster who has a reaction when eating "enriched" products, or anyone else reading this who has digestive or allergic-type reactions from these products, you are fortunate that you have noticed the correlation between your symptoms and the enriched products. You most likely have a common genetic mutation called MTHFR that interferes with your ability to process the folic acid into folate. It doesn't manifest the same symptoms in everyone. My daughter and I get giant hives and facial swelling from it if we eat "enriched", but whole wheat and any organic product is fine. Also many imported products are fine. Please visit the website for detailed info on what to avoid and what can help symptoms. You likely have other symptoms that you didn't even know were related to this.
When I stopped eating it, not only did I stop having the "allergic" reactions (not really an allergy, technically), but my arthritis disappeared and my cracked heels and peeling cuticles I'd suffered with for decades immediately healed.
To the poster in India: hand milling is fine! It doesn't destroy nutrients. The problem is only with the modern, high-speed, high heat process used to mill tons of grain at a time. And the chlorine gas bleaching process kills any vitamins that remain. There was never a need to add vitamins before the industrial revolution.
Oh, and white flour doesn't make you gain weight any more than any other flour, but it is what is termed "empty calories", so you may still want to eat again soon as your body isn't satisfied with the food value. In addition, those who eat a lot if white flour may also eat a lot of processed foods, sugar, and fat. It's part of a generally unhealthy lifestyle that makes you gain the weight.

Good news for the stylishly bespectacled, goths, struggling writers, philosophers, fans of Moulin Rouge, Oscar Wilde's corpse, bad poets, lushes, liquor elitists and the insane: Absinthe is back, worm(wood) and all.
Absinthe has quite a history as a hallucinagenic alcoholic drink, and was all the rage in America before The Man caught on and producers were forced to water it down:
[O]n July 13, 1907, Harper's Weekly noted, "The growing consumption in America of absinthe, 'the green curse of France,' has attracted the attention of the Department of Agriculture, and an investigation has been ordered to determine to what extent it is being manufactuired in this country." Just five years later, on July 25, 1912, the Department of Agriculture issued Food Inspection Decision 147, which banned absinthe in America.
But now, after long years of swill passing for the green fairy, America can finally drink… a decent simulacra. Lucid has the flavor and essense of non-FDA approved Absinthe without the nasty Thujone-caused hallucinations. Oh, you wanted those? You're out of luck.
Until the Food and Drug Administration decides U.S. citizens over the age of 21 are, well, adults, you have but two options: importing European Absinthe through sureptitious channels or sipping Lucid, desperately wishing you were tripping balls.

Quoted Text Dr D: "IgG/IgE Food Allergy tests: antibody based reaction.Pros: reliable procedureCons: false positive and negatives due to fact that antibodies to foods are often engendered by gut bacteria and other non-food origins.Lectins/ Blood Groups: food intolerance/ agglutination reactionPros: predicts reactions not discernible by antibody testingCons: variations in degree of reaction between individuals** modulated in part by adding secretor type and in large part by GenoType/SWAMI additions.The great majority of lectins are ABO specific; not specific for the minor blood groups./antibodies are essentially specific as to what they react to but sometimes they can react non-specifically as well."
Quoted from gardengirl Well, it is your body to play around with. This diet isn't set in stone with me, but a great starting point. I prefer to eliminate things suggested instead of adding though. Did you start the BTD to lose weight or get more energy? I mean, if you are getting all the benefits you expected and want to try introducing wheat that is your call. I would definitely seek out organic choices though since wheat is one of the most modified organisms out there. Good luck. BTW, I would put all my faith in a food tolerance test, I had one and have been challenging it at it says a lot of things are okay for me and they are not. Specific examples are apricots, pork and sugar. Egg whites are moderate but I have had no problems with them. I started this diet very confused between elimination diets, food sensitivity tests, books, etc. It is a very individual journey and you have to be very self aware which I had (and still do) work very hard at. There was a correlation (somewhat) of my food sensitivity test and the BTD - meats were safe and carbs all registered moderate. Dairy and soy were high for me.
Quoted from geminisue I'm assuming you had your blood type checked, someone just didn't tell you what it is.I'm saying this because a friend of mine thought she was a B and found out from her dad after mom passed away, that she (my friend) she an A. She did get it checked to make sure then.
Quoted from Patty H My real question is if I have lectin food intolerance issues, why aren't I feeling sick like my daughter and most of the other O's on this forum? I don't feel sick from any foods - although cooked onions can bother me and too much garlic can bother me. That is it.I don't get achy joints or stomach issues or brain fog, etc.
Quoted from ABJoe If you eat these items without difficulty, it just means that your body is processing the foods better than others OR your symptoms are not registering as pain, but the BP or CRP? level you speak of or other internal issues that aren't indicated without a test... More the silent "killer" type symptoms.My WW didn't have pain either, but had hormonal issues, etc. that were harder to detect. It is all about individuality.
Quoted from Patty H But my cholesterol and CRP went up on the diet, not down. My blood pressure was high before and during the diet. The only thing that seems to control my BP is exercise.I was very strict on the diet for at least 14 months.
Quoted from ABJoe I have been on the diet for 6+ years and some of my symptoms are worse due to the specific healing that is taking place... I am fortunate that I can see and feel the healing, so I know what is going on... I don't have to take it on faith that this is helping...I also know that in order for the body to remove waste deposits, it has to "unpack" the deposit (inflammation) and bring it into the bloodstream (higher toxin level) then filter it out (possible liver or kidney stress) and eliminate it (without re-absorption)... If you took the test in the middle of this process, it is quite possible that the higher readings were due to the healing, rather than some failing of the diet.
Quoted from gardengirl Or maybe I regret the company I went with for the test?? It was newer to the process but my ND talked me out of ALCAT to go with a cheaper company. See - still confused.
Quoted from Patty H I guess I am thinking that even O's can be quite different from one another. I seem to be the exception rather than the rule.
Quoted from gardengirl I sent you a PM because it was a long response. Since I am not savvy with programs, hope you get it.
Quoted from ABJoe We are all individuals, or exceptions, in our own right... There are things in each of our backgrounds, etc. that make each of us have slightly different needs / responses. There are generalizations, but there are also individual needs. It depends on what is more important in our specific systems.
Quoted from Patty H I wonder how my food tolerance will be once all of the heavy metals are gone from my system? I do wonder if that will have an overall impact and if so, in what direction?
Quoted from Patty H One of the things that two different natural health care practitioners have said to me is that being on such a strict diet can cause stress in and of itself. If you are always worried about food and every morsel that goes into your mouth, it can cause adrenal overload just as any other stressful situation.
Quoted from 14442 My reaction to wheat is an increased heart beat, constipation, mood swings and fat gain. Dairy if eaten regularly makes me tired and causes weight gain, though on occasion I can digest it. I'm a firm believer that grains and dairy cause weight gain in Os, based on my 25 years of personal observations, so for me there's no going back, pretty much ever. The years I was stricter about the avoids were better body fat wise and emotionally.Also worth noting is the wheat/leptin resistance connection- this at least one of the reasons wheat causes weight gain:http://www.wheatbellyblog.com/category/leptin-resistance/Milk is damaging to Os due to being chock full of hormones, growth factors and lectins etc. Loren Cordain points out that milk is *filtered cow's blood*:http://thepaleodiet.com/archives/3816

With almost the entire city having a "snow" day on Tuesday, the feel of the week is skewed. Thursday feels like Tuesday, which will feel pretty good when the realisation hits. Here are some ideas for the impending weekend that don't involve watching oversized men throwing a ball around for about 3 seconds then taking a break for 2 minutes, and people have the temerity to call it football.
5) Big Muff Radio, Slonk Donkerson, Sofa Club at Baby's All Right
Big Muff Radio will be celebrating their latest offering, the synth-tinged Life is Easy, which you get on cassette for free with the cost of admission ($8); not a bad deal even if I'm suspicious of anyone who plays cassette tapes. Also be sure not to miss the rather criminally underrated Slonk Donkerson,if you like power trios and don't know Slonk Donkerson, check them out and thank me later.

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to record my guitar through my MOX8 keyboard into AI5.
I have finally set it up so I can record and playback and hear everything through the amp of my Yamaha MOX8.
The problem comes in when I go to EXPORT to an MP3, or WAV file. The WAV file is like 73 MB and silent on play back. The MP3 is 6MB and even after turning up the gain as much as I can without causing distortion it is just a VERY VERY VERY faint recording.
Playing it back through the amp it's beautiful...in fact my family thought it was weird hearing me playing while I was standing in front of them.
On another board I have seen suggestions to make sure the monitor was not selected and "set the locators (in and out: they are also used to loop) of what you want to export (a shortcut for this is select the track event and type 'p').
Then in the export dialog you need to make sure you export the master output (or the individual track if that's all you want to export)."
I have done these but I still have no sound on export. Now when I made the changes suggested I was not connected to the MOX8 but I didn't think that would matter. I also get the message..."Until Tuesday August 13, 2013 you will have 13 remaining encodings". But I have registerd everything up with the eLicenser. I am so frustrated...Any help would be fantastic!!!

Gillard gains traction with older voters
PUBLISHED: 27 Oct 2012 00:06:00 | UPDATED: 28 Oct 2012 07:31:21PUBLISHED: 27 Oct 2012 PRINT EDITION: 27 Oct 2012Edmund Tadros
Prime Minister Julia Gillard is enjoying a surge in popularity among older voters, a group which had previously been the most critical of her performance.
While Ms Gillard's overall net approval rating has been rising since June, the fastest and most significant improvement has been from voters aged 55 and above.
The older group has moved from a net approval rating of about 10 points below voters aged 25-39 and 40-54 to a rating in line with the two younger groups, a Weekend Financial Review analysis of Nielsen data back to the 2010 election shows.
Looking at trend data, Ms Gillard and Opposition Leader Tony Abbott continue to have negative approval ratings – more people disapprove of their performance than approve – but Ms Gillard is on a steep upward trajectory while Mr Abbott is on a downward path.
Since the middle of the year, Ms Gillard's net approval rating by the 55 and over group has jumped from about minus 30 to about minus 15.
During the same time, Mr Abbott has suffered a slow but steady decline in his net approval rating across all ages.
It is now about minus 20.
Nielsen pollster John Stirton said the rise in Ms Gillard's net approval rating among older voters was significant. "For most of the period since the last election she has been the least popular among those over 55," Mr Stirton said. "In the surge of popularity the PM has had in the past few months the trend has been more marked among older voters.
"It will be interesting to see if this pattern holds up over the next few months."
Mr Stirton said that each of the four age groups in the poll was weighted according to the size of that group in the general population.
This made the 18-24 year old group the smallest and the most volatile, while the 55 and over group was the largest and most influential on the overall poll figures.
An earlier analysis showed men and women differed in their views about the leaders.
It is difficult to say exactly what has caused the elderly to so quickly shift their opinion about the Prime Minister but seniors' lobby groups point to an accumulation of factors.
Michael O'Neill, chief executive of over 50s lobby group National Seniors Australia, said key factors seemed to be Mr Abbott's scare campaign about the carbon tax and a perception that Ms Gillard had been treated disrespectfully.
"It's partly the carbon tax, which had been painted in all kinds of ways [as] close to the end of the world," he said. "To some extent, it's a recognition that she is now more legitimate and there's a stoicism to the older generation that I don't think is there with other groups. That would ring a bell with them."
He added: "Not to make too much of it, but the death of her father humanised the prime minister a bit more."
Mr O'Neill's insights are based on the research and polling of the 200,000-strong membership of National Seniors plus his regular conversations with members.
A perception of perseverance also showed up in research by Shelly Stone, policy co-ordinator at the Australian Pensioners and Superannuants League. Ms Stone said the elderly members she had spoken to felt the personal attacks on Ms Gillard were distasteful.
"There was a perception that the continuing personal attacks on the PM were unwarranted," Ms Stone said.
In addition, after it was revealed shock jock Alan Jones said Gillard's father had died of shame they felt "the boundaries of acceptability had been irrefutably breeched"," Ms Stone said.
"It seems that heightened people's awareness of the PM as a daughter, a person.
"This, it appears promoted empathy for the PM, not only due to the loss of her father, but regarding people's perceptions of the way she had been personally treated."
But despite the Prime Minister's personal improvement rating, Labor trails the Coalition in the two-party preferred vote 48-52 per cent.
Rebecca Huntley, research director of market research company Ipsos, said the data suggested "we don't want this government any more, but we don't want Tony Abbott".

THE JOCK (continued)
Pitch Perfect
The Yankees may have more pennants, but the Mets are the face of an increasingly diverse New York, with announcements in Spanish and wildly popular merengue nights. Even better, bleacher seats start at $5 for some matchups (die-hard Yankees fans can catch a game in the Bronx for $12). The National Tennis Center, which flanks the ballpark to the south, buzzes with energy when the U.S. Open is in residence each summer; the rest of the year, court time at the facility is open to the public ($18–$56 per hour). Beyond, in Flushings Meadow Park, are the relics of the 1964 World's Fair, the Unisphere and the crumbling observation towers. The second-largest Chinatown in the United States, in Flushing proper (one subway stop farther than the stadiums), is a sure bet for mealtime. Spicy & Tasty serves up Szechwan specialties like minced pork and string beans soused in red chile sauce—so even if the Mets aren't on fire, your mouth will be.
Dive Bar
In tourist-clogged Midtown, trendy Hotel Grace is a breath of fresh air—well, slightly chlorinated air. The centerpiece of the property (formerly the Hotel QT) is a mini pool on the ground floor (see picture on slide one). Of course, it's less suited to laps than to cannonballs (the swim-up bar doesn't help). The smallest of the 139 rooms upstairs are no larger than a walk-in closet, but with rates starting at $199, the square-footage becomes an afterthought. If you can't bear the thought of being bounded by concrete, the Parks Department hosts free (supervised) campouts each summer in locations throughout the city—including Central Park. Reservations are required.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Voltron - ADOPTED!!
Facts about Voltron - ADOPTED!
- Breed: Domestic Mediumhair
- Color: Black (All)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Medium
Voltron - ADOPTED!'s Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, declawed, not good with dogs, and good with cats.
Estimated Date of Birth: June 1, 2010
Male - NEUTERED
Medium Haired Black with White
Hello there, Im Voltron. I came to Tigerlily originally as a kitten, and then came back when my family was not able to keep me any longer. Im a bit of a timid fellow, though once I know I am safe and secure, I will melt in your arms. I would do best in a quiet, calm home with lots of TLC to help me feel that everything is really ok! I would do ok as the only cat or with other quieter and calmer kitties too. Do you have that purrfect home for me?
Love, Voltron
Other Pets at Tigerlily Cat Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Voltron - ADOPTED!, a Sterling Heights Domestic Mediumhair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Mediumhair for sale in Sterling Heights, or seeking a Domestic Mediumhair cat from a breeder in Sterling Heights.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Sterling Heights already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Sterling Heights breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Sterling Heights paves the way for another one to be saved.

Late night fire threatened Cloverdale condos
Shortly before midnight Thursday, Cloverdale firefighters responded to a report of a fully involved structure fire in a pool house behind a residence at the end of University St.
Residents of the nearby Solar Park Condominium complex on the corner of Main St. and Vista View Dr. were temporarily evacuated while crews knocked down the flames. The pool house was a total loss, but except for some paint blistering on one of the building, there was no damage at Solar Park.
Savannah Del Campo, one of those evacuated, had nothing but praise for the firefighters. "The quick response of Cloverdale Fire saved lots of homes and we are lucky to have men who are so dedicated to this community!"
As of Friday morning, firefighters were continuing their investigation into the cause of the fire.

BC Premier Christy Clark
Credits: CARMINE MARINELLI/QMI AGENCY
VANCOUVER - A Vancouver Island DJ was reportedly fired after asking BC Premier Christy Clark what it was like to be a "MILF" last month.
In an interview with News1130, Justin Wilcomes, a.k.a. DJ Drex on Courtenay's 98.9 Jet FM, said he never wanted to offend anyone.
MILF, coined in the 1999 film American Pie, stands for "mother I'd like to f---."
Clark replied that being MILF is better than being a cougar - an older woman on the prowl.
The station issued a media statement saying it couldn't comment on employee matters and it was an internal decision.
"I work at a rock station. We do entertainment and comedy interspersed with things in our community. I don't think it was a bad thing," Wilcomes told the station, adding he wasn't given an opportunity to apologize to Clark. "I think more the media attention is what they were angry about."

Hi Folks,
I just picked up my copy the other day, yet to play. I am a lapsed CCG player and am interested by the LCG format. I notice that the deck size for tournies is 50-100, and was curious as to which end of that spectrum people were building towards and why? My feeling is that smaller decks, 50 - 60, will be the norm but are people seeing potential in massive decks?

How Long Can I Live with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
How long can I live with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)? What if I am diagnosed with PKD? These become two big nightmares that bother PKD patients, because PKD is an inheritable disease an there is no specific treatment at present to cure it completely.
How long can I live with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)?
Researches reveal that generally patients with PKD will have high blood pressure in 30 years old, high creatinine level in 40s, and kidney failure in 50s. With renal failure, patients have to rely on dialysis to live, but the average life expectancy of dialysis is approximately 5 years. Does this mean that patients with PKD only can live so fewer years? Don't worry! Some methods are able to help prolong their life span.
How to extend PKD patients' life expectancy?
◆ Control the risks: High blood pressure, blood urine, urinary tract infections, the size of renal cysts and proteinuria all can affect the prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Controlling these risks is able to slow down the progression of patients' condition effectively.
◆ Develop a healthy diet: However patients' condition is, a healthy diet is always very important to improve patients' overall health. A low-protein, low-salt and low-fat diet is recommended for people with PKD. In addition, enough water intake is also conducive to keep patients' overall health.
◆ Shrink renal cysts: Renal function loses gradually due to the enlarged renal cysts oppressing their surrounding tissues. Therefore, shrinking renal cysts is able to reduce the pressure on the kidney. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, compared with surgery, focuses on all the renal cysts instead of bigger ones. Through improving the permeability of cystic walls and making sac fluid reabsorbed, renal cysts will be shrunk naturally.
When your condition is controlled very well, you don't need to be worried about "how long can I live Polycystic Kidney Disease". Therefore, the effective treatment to control PKD patients' condition should be sought.

It all started with the word "Passion". The passion to be a blessing and the passion to pursue creative ideas that will greatly promote and bring in the competitiveness of Filipino best cuisine.
Memixed Food Corporation was established in November 2, 2011 through the dedication of visionary entrepreneurs. The group was part of the Mission's Board of Journey Church Philippines and they saw the need to raise fund for church planting and community outreach programs. The desire to help birthed the new concept of a quick service restaurant called Sawsawjuan - a venture that will help generate income and create more jobs and opportunities for aspiring potential entrepreneurs.
It's our faith that leads us to begin the first branch on February 25, 2012 in a 53 sq/m area of Pacific Centre Building at the heart of China town in Binondo Manila. We move away from the hindrances of having limited fund and bond ourselves to begin with determination. The groups' distinct preference to the varieties of dipping sauces creates the artistic name Sawsawjuan; it was derived from the word sawsaw means (Dip) and Juan (the name symbolizing simplicity and ingenuity of Filipinos). The trademark Sawsawjuan will showcase the cravings of Juan dela Cruz to different mixtures of dipping sauces or "sawsawan."
In the culture of Filipino dining table, the first thing comes in mind is to prepare a suitable sawsawan for a definite cuisine. This gives Filipino the way to fine-tune every dish on their desired taste. It shows creativity and patience that can totally give an enchanting taste for every best Filipino cuisine.
Our edge from other local Filipino restaurants is our artistic Sawsawjuan Bar – a table where you can find a myriad of ingredients to create your own choice dip sauce. It includes everything from the Pinoy's household dining table. Patis (fish sauce), toyo (Soy Sauce), bagoong alamang (salt-fermented shrimp paste) and bagoong isda (salt-fermented fish), Kalamansi, Siling Labuyo or bird's-eye chili, Banana ketchup and Sarsa (sweet liver sauce), chopped tomatoes and onion. We are offering ensalada, green mango, lató or seaweed of various kinds, and chili, as well as atsara of pickled green papaya and other veggies, burong manga (pickled mango), and burong isda (salt-fermented rice with fish).
We featured different kinds of vinegar such as Sukang Iloko (Cane Vinegar), Sukang Tuba, (Coconut Vinegar), Sukang Paombong (Palm Vinegar), Sukang Pinakurat (Iligan version of Palm Vinegar. Sawsawjuan Restaurant promotes business opportunities to small entrepreneur in provinces and barrios of the country that supplies these product lines. Needless to say, that these ideas and business concept will promote "The Authentic Filipino Regional Best." Combining different Filipino dishes from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
We know that every person who wishes to build a successful product line should check their passion meter before they start building. We should consider asking ourselves the questions: What do we want? And what do we believe? Memixed Food Corporation envisions being the finest restaurant chains of Filipino favorite regional cuisines nationwide. We are dedicated to develop more quality and cost efficient food for everyone in the future.
As we pursue our vision, we want to invite other aspiring potential entrepreneur to be part of our dream - making the authentic Filipino regional food competitive to the global market. Dream with us and be part of the blessed, so we can be a blessing to people and our nation for the glory of God
.We envision being the finest restaurant chain of Filipino favourite regional cuisine nationwide.
1. To showcase our very own Sawsawan Bar "where you can mix your favourite dip." Touching the cravings of Filipino's in dipping sauces.

Framing the story with scenes from the recent past, Barsky finds the octogenarian still visible in New York City's political life: stumping in 2010 for everything from local assembly candidates to the gubernatorial contest, being toasted by current mayor Michael Bloomberg, having a bridge renamed for him. It isn't long before a witness to one of these honors takes issue with it, reminding viewers of the problems Koch had with many black constituents.
Barsky leaps back to 1977, with images of a Big Apple on the brink of collapse. There's Ed Koch, P.A. set up on street corners, claiming he's the best of the seven brave souls hoping to become mayor of the imperiled metropolis. Mixing plentiful period footage and interviews with participants including political strategist David Garth, the film sees how the outspoken Koch won the job, then follows as he quickly earned a reputation for nerve.
Koch stares down the transit union, daring to venture among the commuters whose subway rides were replaced by hours-long walks to work; he goes to D.C. to head off the city's bankruptcy. We see one of his most controversial acts, the closing of Harlem's Sydenham Hospital, which he now admits was a mistake—though whether he means it was immoral or simply a strategic error is unclear.
Some of the film's talking heads suggest the latter. One black leader defends Koch from charges of racism, accusing him instead of across-the-board opportunism. Koch's problems with the gay community, which accused him of exacerbating the AIDS crisis, get equal attention. Barsky lingers on the issue of the mayor's sexuality—many believe he's a closeted gay man whose foot-dragging on AIDS resulted from fear of being outed—but Koch maintains his stance when the director asks about it point-blank: "It's none of your fucking business." (Gay, straight or asexual, Koch's use of former Miss America Bess Myerson as a photo-op companion during his first campaign was shameless.)
Amid the critical voices, though, Koch finds much to praise—particularly in the administration's massive spending on housing, which one interviewee says is as responsible for lowered crime rates as any of the controversial police tactics that earned Rudy Giuliani renown in later years.

"Hi,this recipe sounded good and I was looking forward to trying it.Sorry to say though it doesn't turn out good.I think the measurements are a lil off cos the batter doesn't become like a pancake.I ended up with upma rather than uttapam."
"I was really excited to try this when I read all the reviews but unfortunately it wasn't good at all..I think some things are just not meant to be low fat.This didn't taste good at all..I ended up throwing all of it."
"Hi,I was looking for an easy mexican side dish and this was perfect.Only thing I didn't like was that the garlic was a little too much even for a garlic lover like me.Another use for the leftovers,add some corn and roll it in a warm tortilla roll with some salsa,sour cream and guacamole and you have a great burrito."

Despite some growth in retail, mortgage and consumer credit, the story for the country¹s lenders has been largely one of less growth and profitability.
The run up to presidential elections this year witnessed a fiscal expansion that has led to a deterioration of the country¹s fiscal accounts, according to Barclays. It estimates a fiscal deficit of 4.3% of GDP in 2012, likely to shrink to 3.0% of GDP next year.
Against this backdrop, the central bank was forced to take a conservative stance: interest rates have therefore been higher, leading to a decline in consumer lending. Banks are also investing more in government assets and directing fewer resources to lending. A 1% tax on banks¹ financial assets in effect from June 2011 to June 2013 has also made life difficult and challenged growth levels.
In this context, Banco Popular Dominicano the country¹s biggest private bank in terms of assets has maintained growth above the rest of the system.
Its size has served it well in a more challenging environment. Total asset levels rose 15% increase at year-end to $5.3 billion from its $4.6 billion in 2010. It also saw its net loan portfolio rise 16% from the year before to $3.3 billion.
³Compared with its peers, the bank has a wider deposit base, and that¹s the source of liquidity to grow,² says Larisa Arteaga, director at Fitch.
The bank¹s diversity, retail lending and deposits have all contributed to its maintaining a solid portfolio, she says. The bank¹s consumer loan portfolio, meanwhile, aside from credit cards, grew to $35 million, and it is the biggest mortgage lender in the country, with 25.4% of the market in 2011.
Banco Popular Dominicano has, in terms of asset volume, a 33% share in the banking market. Its total deposits grow about 14% to around $4.5 billion.
The bank has 28.2% of the market for commercial loans, which continues to grow. The bank says it is the largest issuer in the Dominican Republic of credit and debit cards.
Its prospects are boosted by a fiscal reform package unveiled this October by the new administration, which analysts say is likely to revive a flagging economy and, with any luck, create a better environment for the nation¹s banks. LF

Star Wars Xbox 360 Slim: These Aren't the Consoles You're Looking For (Actually, They Are)
There's a limited edition Star Wars-themed Xbox 360 coming up, that features some cool droid-inspired designs. Both Microsoft and LucasArts unveiled this console bundle for the upcoming Kinect Star Wars game yesterday at the San Diego Comic-Con.
The bundle includes an Xbox 360 with a 320GB hard drive, the Kinect sensor and the motion-controlled Star Wars game. It also has the Kinect Adventures game, that's usually bundled with Kinect. It will be released this holiday season and will cost $450 (USD), which is equivalent to the price of the components purchased separately.
The console is covered in R2-D2's paint job, so it's quite fetching. It will feature custom sounds that mimic the droid, while the controller takes on a golden hue of C-3Po. The Kinect sensor is white, to match the console. The game looks to be geared towards kids, who'll probably go bonkers for it.
While I wouldn't pick up the console just for the game, I'd definitely buy this limited edition, as my own Xbox 360 dates from November 16, 2005, the day the Xbox 360 was launched. It's available for pre-order over at Amazon now.

We had our first wedding of the season. It was scheduled for an outdoor ceremony but with the rainy weather we decided to have it in the Fireside Lounge. We had a Saturday Brunch today so that means at 1:30pm all hands on deck to take down the Sunday brunch and get the lounge ready for a wedding ceremony. It was done it half as hour, that's team work!
Kerry and John were married in the Fireside lounge with no evidence of the mayhem that had happened just moments before. Congratulations you guys and have a blast this evening.

"As far as you know, Sam Quintana is telling the absolute truth about everything that happened at that apartment?" Sargent asks.
"How can I say that?"
"So if I understand you, you were so drunk you didn't even hear gunshots."
"No, I didn't." After one more round of tears, Ornelas says, "Ever since this situation happened, I've tried to forget about it."
"I'll bet you have," someone in Venus's family says quietly.
Then it's over. Ornelas sits at the witness stand, his head down, until he's told to step down. The defense is done.
It takes this jury even less time to reach its verdict than the jury in Frank Vigil's trial. After just four hours, they send a message to the judge that they're ready. Word is sent to gather the lawyers and families.
After everyone is seated in the courtroom, the Jefferson County sheriff's Special Operations Team quietly assembles in the hall outside. They're in full riot gear.
When the judge says the word "guilty," the section behind Ornelas erupts. Alysha Abeyta, the mother of his children, begins screaming as other family members and supporters shout.
When Woodford orders that Abeyta be quiet or be removed, Ornelas yells, "Fuck you! What the fuck did you expect her to do?"
Deputies quickly subdue Ornelas, who continues to shout profanities.
As the riot squad enters the courtroom, the jurors are quickly escorted out a back door--and Ornelas's supporters vent their anger at Venus's stunned family. Detective Richardson moves to protect them, knocking over the drinking water on the prosecution table in the process.
One of Ornelas's female relatives uses both middle fingers to flip them off. "The fuckin' bitch deserved to die if she was hangin' out with snitches!" she screams as she's pulled from the courtroom by the riot squad.
Just as California pawned off its gang members on Denver by giving deferred sentences and bus tickets to those who left the state, Colorado gave the same deal to Antonio Martinez. His mother moved first, a week after his graduation; it took Antonio a couple of months to follow.
When Theresa asked what was keeping him, he had to admit that a girl he'd been seeing was having a baby. "I think it's mine," he said. He wanted to be there for the child's birth.
In California, Antonio got a job working at Kmart, selling shoes. It was the first real job he'd ever had. "I didn't even need it," he recalls. "I had plenty of money. But Mom got tired of me just hanging around, doing nothin' but drawing."
Of all the members of the Deuce-Seven Crenshaw Mafia Gangsters, Antonio was the only one to ever visit Crenshaw Boulevard in Los Angeles and introduce himself to the Bloods there. But the California gangs were not nearly so welcoming of strangers--especially a Mexican kid--as the gangs in Denver.
Antonio soon had company, though: Danny, now split from Terry, and Pancho moved out to California. Theresa marveled at how relaxed they were, walking unarmed and unafraid down the street to go to a store, something they could never have done safely in Denver. She hoped they'd all make new lives for themselves.
But Antonio, who'd made a lengthy visit to Denver to see his baby, Patricia, was still homesick. After his application to art school was denied, he was done with California. "Okay, let's go home," he told Theresa. Danny and Pancho followed soon after.
Back in Denver, Antonio was accepted to the Colorado Institute of Art, even receiving a federal grant to study. He was warned, however, that any felony drug charge would result in the forfeiture of the grant--no other crime, just drugs.
Danny, Pancho and Antonio had often talked about "going legitimate"--maybe starting a commercial-art company with Antonio doing the art, Pancho doing the grunt work and Danny using his people skills in "marketing."
It was a fun dream. "But Danny always wanted to be the older brother, in charge, the president of the company," Antonio says. That grated on Antonio, but he figured that someday his brother was going to need him worse than he needed his brother. That was part of the reason he'd refused to let anybody stop him from getting an education.
While the brothers sometimes talked about Danny getting away from "the life," it was increasingly clear that that life was all he had. There had been no Ms. Williams to keep Danny in school, no Mr. Vickers to encourage him, and no Lonnie Lynn, whom Antonio kept in touch with when he needed someone to talk to about making the right decisions.
He was working hard in school, but Antonio still hung out with Danny and Pancho--which meant he hung out with other members of the Deuce-Seven and CMG Bloods as well. But he found himself liking few of them, especially guys like Salvino Martinez, who talked big.
And then Antonio made the mistake of letting Danny use his apartment when he went off to school during the day. Danny made it his headquarters for drug sales, and one of the people he sold to was Salvino Martinez.

10 health benefits of cucumbers
by Alexandra Du Toit, TRUE Earth Mama
(NaturalNews) Cucumbers are the fourth most cultivated vegetable in the world and known to be one of the best foods for your body's overall health, often referred to as a superfood. Cucumbers are often sprayed with pesticides so it is important to buy organic or even better, grow them yourself.
Here are 10 Benefits of cucumbers:
Quick pick me-up
- Cucumbers are a good source of B vitamins. Put down your sodas and coffee and eat a cucumber slice.
Rehydrates body and replenishes daily vitamins
- Cucumbers are 95 percent water, keeping the body hydrated while helping the body eliminate toxins. Cucumbers have most of the vitamins the body needs in a single day. Don't forget to leave the skin on because the skin contains a good amount of vitamin C, about 10 percent of the daily-recommended allowance.
Skin and hair care
- If you don't like to eat the skin, it can be used for skin irritations and sunburns as aloe would be used. Place a slice over puffy eyes and its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce puffiness. The silicon and sulfur in cucumbers help to stimulate hair growth.
Fight cancers
- Cucumber are known to contain lariciresinol, pinoresinol, and secoisolariciresinol. These three lignans have a strong history of research in connection with reduced risk of several cancer types, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer and prostate cancer.
Home care
- Eliminates a foggy mirror. Before taking a shower, rub a cucumber slice along a mirror and it will eliminate the mirror fogging up. Instead of WD40, take a cucumber slice and rub it along a squeaky hinge and your door will stop squeaking.
Relieves bad breath
- Take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds, the phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath.
Hangover cure
- To avoid a morning hangover or headache; eat a few cucumber slices before going to bed. Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B vitamins and electrolytes to replenish many essential nutrients, reducing the intensity of both hangover and headache.
Aids in weight loss and digestion
- Due to its low calorie and high water content, cucumber is an ideal diet for people who are looking for weight loss. The high water content and dietary fiber in
are very effective in ridding the body of toxins from the digestive system, aiding digestion. Daily consumption of cucumbers can be regarded as a remedy for chronic constipation.
Cures diabetes, reduces cholesterol and controls blood pressure
- Cucumber juice contains a hormone which is needed by the cells of the pancreas for producing insulin which has been found to be beneficial to diabetic patients. Researchers found that a compound called sterols in cucumbers may help reduce cholesterol levels. Cucumbers contain a lot of potassium, magnesium and fiber. These work effectively for regulating blood pressure. This makes cucumbers good for treating both low blood pressure and high blood pressure.
Promotes joint
, relieves gout and arthritis pain
-Cucumber is an excellent source of silica, which is known to help promotes joint health by strengthening the connective tissues. They are also rich in vitamin A, B1, B6, C & D, Folate, Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium. When mixed with carrot juice, they can relieve gout and arthritis pain by lowering the uric acid levels

Photo of damaged tire not enough to get customer what he wants
The problem is Ronald Marvin left the second tire behind, and he only has a photo to show the damage.
In August, Marvin was towing an SUV behind his motor home. On Highway 58 near Boron, a trucker motioned that the front driver-side tire on the SUV was badly damaged. Marvin pulled over and found that tire simply shredded. And, the front passenger-side tire was also damaged.
"By the time I got it pulled over, all the tension and the stress on the tire from moving back and forth just destroyed the tread," Marvin said. "It was so bad, that it needed to be replaced."
He limped the motor home and SUV into Kramer Junction, and bought two tires. The wheel on one was also badly damaged, so he used the wheel from the spare, and called ahead to St. George, Utah to get a replacement for that.
Marvin said he had only so much room to bring back the damaged tires.
"I had the spare tire that I had to put in the back, plus this (blown-out tire), and I decided to photograph the bad tire and left it," Marvin said. He kept a photograph of the damaged tire to show the company.
Once he was back home, Marvin went to the Sears Auto Center to get reimbursed for the two destroyed tires. "I had road hazard tire insurance from Sears," Marvin says. "But they and Hankook America refused to honor it, as I did not have the other tire."
Marvin says he contacted Hankook USA spokesmen by email. On Sept. 14 he got an email reply.
"Hi Ronald: If the tire that had a blow out was the result of a road hazard and falls within the first 2/32 of tread, we would be able to warranty that tire," it reads. "Unfortunately, we cannot warranty a tire that you do not have."
Marvin is unhappy with that response. He thinks the photo of the badly damaged tire should be proof enough. Marvin has documents showing he bought four tires on Oct. 14, 2011. That makes the damaged tires about 10 months old at that time, and Marvin said they had 3,282 miles on them.
He said the company had agreed to reimburse him for the tire he brought back. But that leaves the second tire, and the cost of a new wheel -- which he said the company had declined to cover. Marvin figures he's out about $400.
On Monday, Eyewitness News contacted Hankook USA by phone and email. A spokesman said he'd do more research into what the company has done about this case so far.
Marvin thinks there was clearly a problem with the tires from Hankook. At the time of the blow-out, "None of the other tires were damaged," Marvin said. "And I didn't see anything on the road, I didn't hit anything with the motor home."
Marvin is convinced the company should make good on all the damage from this tire blow-out, even if he only has a photo to demonstrate the second damaged tire.
"I'd like to get reimbursed for the rim and get my tires replaced," Marvin said. "I just figured Hankook, just for good customer relations, would say, 'Alright, we'll replace it.'"
