Has anyone heard if there were any CCW holders amoung those killed or wounded at VA? If so where were their guns
I have wondered too Tom - and doubt any info on this will be in the least fast to reach the likes of us.
By law of averages I'll bet there we quite a few in the actual total student numbers - tho wonder more perhaps if any in the immediate killing zone - desperately bemoaning the fact that their guns were in some way - far far away. Maybe yes - even one or two of the victims.
Perhaps we will find out - eventually.

I read a story a news site don't remember where but there were people that wanted to carry on campus however the campus honchos threated them with termination if they did.

I applaud Mikeb for his efforts at Purdue in getting his issues heard! I hope he continues at chipping away the layers of ignorance in University Administrations. His posts after his meeting with Dean of Students leads one to believe that if "he" as an individual, were to be discreet, never got caught, at least the Dean of Students would kind of abide by a don't ask, don't tell and I won't stop you.
I agree though, that Mikeb. should continue to abide by campus policies and not carry in the meantime while he continues is quest to slay the "administration."
Seems like Utah is finally on the right track!
As for lawsuits against Purdue... You reap what you sow... If there are indeed any CCW permit holders among the killed or wounded or even in close proximity to the killer, you have to have faith that they or their family's will pursue their complaint in civil court.
I heard that three of the victims did hold CCW permits.
But I cannot verify that - somewhat difficult to get a second source.
I also read in some report of the shooting that three of the students killed held CCW permits, but, of course ,were not permitted to be armed because of the VT "no gun" policy. Unfortunately, I don't remember the source of the story.

For once this almost makes us wish that stupid list of those with CCWs were still up. No Not at all, but that idot would have made it easier for ust to know.

HELGA: Where are you going?

HAGAR: First we gotta negotiate...
I find it highly unlikely that three of the victims were CCW holders. The basic numbers just don't add up. We are, unfortunately, a much smaller percentage of the overall population than that. Throw in the fact that these were all college age students, many of them under 21, and it becomes even less likely.
That said, however, I did see a BLOG post by another VT student from around the time of that incident there last year (Not the most recent incident) where he was discussing how angry he was that he couldn't carry on campus back then.
Personally, I'm of the belief that in a situation like this, where the law says you can carry, but some smaller rule says you cannot, like a rule at school or a rule that your employer puts in place, it is better to carry and risk loosing your job or your school admittance than to risk loosing your life. It just makes it more important that your ability to conceal is really effective. Truly deep concealment is called for in such a situation.
That is one reason I carry at work with the Maxpedition bag, even though it is expressly against the rules where I work. Nobody will search my bag at work, and unless my life is in danger, nobody will ever know I'm carrying. In that case, it would be better to loose my job and not my life.

Although Virginia has CCW permits, colleges may restrict weapons from their campuses. Last year, a bill was introduced in the Virginia legislature to prohibit colleges from restricting the right of state licensed CCW holders to carry on campus. The bill never passed. Here are a couple of statements from Larry Hincker, Assoc. Vice President of University Relations at Virginia Tech, in 2005 and 2006 about allowing students, faculty, and administrators who have CCW permits to carry weapons on campus.
September 5, 2006
Imagine if students were armed
By Larry Hincker (Assoc. Vice President of University Relations at Virginia Tech)
After the fear, and dare I say, panic from the events of Aug. 21, it is absolutely mind-boggling to see the opinions of Bradford Wiles ("Unarmed and vulnerable," Aug. 31).
I once worked for an out-of-touch manager who gave rather absurd directions. My colleagues and I would do as directed and dubbed it "malicious compliance," knowing the task to be inane and the manager's foibles would soon be apparent.
The editors of this page must have printed this commentary if for no other reason than malicious compliance. Surely, they scratched their heads saying, "I can't believe he really wants to say that."
...The writer would have us believe that a university campus, with tens of thousands of young people, is safer with everyone packing heat. Imagine the continual fear of students in that scenario. We've seen that fear here, and we don't want to see it again.
...Guns don't belong in classrooms. They never will. Virginia Tech has a very sound policy preventing same.
From January 31, 2006:
"House Bill 1572 didn't get through the House Committee on Militia, Police and Public Safety. It died Monday in the subcommittee stage, the first of several hurdles bills must overcome before becoming laws.
Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker was happy to hear the bill was defeated. I'm sure the university community is appreciative of the General Assembly's actions because this will help parents, students, faculty and visitors feel safe on our campus."
It will be a shame if any of the students or teachers had a CCW but were not allowed to have a gun on campus and died due to this.

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 Sable aka Stella 7!
Facts about Sable aka Stella 7

- Color: Black - With Brown, Red, Golden, Orange Or Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Sable aka Stella 7's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Baby Catahoula mix puppy born 12/15/2012. Will be vaccinated and ready for adoption on 2/15/2013 at 8 weeks old.
Other Pets at New Hope Cattle & Herding Dogs of AR
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Sable aka Stella 7, a Conway Catahoula Leopard Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Catahoula Leopard Dog for sale in Conway, or seeking a Catahoula Leopard Dog dog from a breeder in Conway.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Conway 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 Conway 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 Catahoula Leopard Dog breeders who help with Catahoula Leopard Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Conway paves the way for another one to be saved.

text: I'm not sure what is going on with my body for the last two weeks but I figured maybe if I share what's been happening maybe some of you can toss ideas out there as to what's causing this. Since winter finally lifted it's cold gripping fingers off of us I started walking again. I've been doing great and getting it in about 5 days a week. I've stayed on a healthy diet since I started it last summer. So that's been good. Since I started walking again I was dropping weight pretty quick then I gained about 2lbs back. I know this is normal when you first start working out after not doing so for a while. But then I gained 2 more lbs within a day. Then I dropped 3 in a day, then gained 5 in two day, then dropped few more lbs, now I gained 5 and it's not budging, at all. At first I thought maybe water weight and waited. But scale still not dropping. I thought maybe I ate something that tends to make me retain water. But when I think back, I can't think of anything and by now the fluid would be gone. Has this happened to anyone else? If so what did you do to try to stop it? This is getting frustrating and I'm starting to lose motivation.

Archive for the 'Candida' Category
A Candida Cleanse Might Not Cure Autism, But it Can Help
, 08 26th, 2014Many studies of children with autism have shown that these children are susceptible to yeast imbalances and stomach problems that might make their autism symptoms worse. It isn't surprising that symptoms of autism come out more when kids aren't feeling their best. Any sick child will act differently and sometimes behave in a way that is abnormal.
For autistic children who have problems with yeast imbalance and their stomach, going through a Candida cleanse can help. This won't be the magical cure for autism that makes a child normal again, but it can make it so that autism symptoms are less extreme. More importantly it'll keep the child feeling good which will give the child a higher quality of life.
A Candida Cleanse May Help Eliminate Some Autism Symptoms
, 06 03rd, 2014Recent studies have found that in autistic children there is sometimes an overgrowth of yeast in the stomach. The balance between yeast and bacteria in the stomach is very important for digestion and some symptoms of autism can be caused by an imbalance between the two. Cutting out carbs and sugars in an autistic child's diet has led to changes in symptoms due to limiting yeast in the stomach.
For some children, a Candida cleanse may even be necessary to control the Candida yeast that grows inside of a child's stomach. This involves eliminating foods which can feed the yeast inside of a stomach as well as cleaning out the yeast that is living in the stomach to bring the balance between bacteria and yeast to an even level. This can be helpful and eliminate some autism symptoms.
A Candida Cleanse for a Child with Autism
, 03 11th, 2014My nephew was diagnosed with autism when he was four years old. Since then, his parents have tried many things to help him deal with autism symptoms. Behavioral therapies and different prescribed treatments have helped him a little bit, but he still struggles with angry outbursts and has problems associating with other kids.
Recently, his parents have decided that they are going to try giving him a Candida cleanse. The purpose of this treatment is to make changes in his diet to lower yeast growth in the stomach. Some people with autistic children have seen improvement when they switched their child over. Hopefully, they see some improvement as well.
Saving Your Autistic Child with a Candida Cleanse
, 12 17th, 2013We usually don't think of yeast as something that is harmful. We gladly add it to bread and other food items without even thinking about it. Most processed foods contain some amount of yeast. To most people, yeast is not that big of a deal. When it comes to autistic children and those with food allergies, yeast can actually be doing a lot of harm.
Autistic children have shown improvements after having a candida cleanse. This type of treatment seeks to eliminate all yeast from a child's diet and to flush it out of their system entirely. Many parents have noticed changes in bad behavior and steps forward in development, after changing their child to this diet. While it isn't a cure for autism, this therapy helps.
The Candida Cleanse Diet's Benefits
, 09 24th, 2013Some alternative medicine practitioners believe that a fungus known as Candida albicans is the cause of many common problems like headaches and general fatigue. In order to stop this fungus from growing, these practitioners advise a diet that cuts out sugard, white flour, cheese, and yeast. There is some controversy, however, over whether these claims are warranted.
Even if the candida cleanse doesn't work the way that it is suggested, going on this diet generally means cutting out the majority of processed foods from your diet entirely. Choosing to eat foods that are fresh and unprocessed is more likely to make you feel better in general, regardless of whether or not any fungus is growing in your gastrointestinal tract.
Limiting Foods for a Candida Cleanse
, 06 20th, 2013Some alternative medicine practitioners believe that changing one's diet can be enough to remove potentially harmful Candida yeast from the body. Supposedly, these changes in diet can be effective in a month, though it more often takes multiple months for results to appear. Generally, for the Candida diet, certain foods are limited and others are to be avoided completely.
Typically, one is supposed to avoid foods that contain any type of yeast during a Candida cleanse; this includes bread, beer, cheese, and a number of other foods. Also to be generally avoided are foods that contain excess amounts of sugar, which supposedly promotes the growth of the yeast. A low-carbohydrate diet is also encouraged.
Alternative Medicine And The Candida Cleanse
, 03 19th, 2013A number of practitioners of alternative medicine believe that symptoms such as gastrointestinal distress, sore gums, and rashes, alongside a number of other concurrent symptoms, can be related to the Candida albicans fungus. Though the majority of doctors have not particularly confirmed or condemned the effects of this fungus in the body, some alternative practitioners swear by it.
The general idea to get rid of the excess Candida albicans fungus that is supposedly present in one's intestines is through what is referred to as a Candida cleanse. Supposedly, this Candida cleanse can significantly reduce the effects of the fungus. It should be known, however, that not a single study has proven that intestinal candidiasis causes any symptoms of illness.
Candida Albicans and Alternative Medicine
, 12 25th, 2012There are a number of alternative practitioners of medicine that believe that harmful fungus is to blame for a number of maladies such as overtiredness or recurring headaches. The fungus is known as Candida albicans and there is a certain diet that these practitioners believe should be followed to 'cleanse' oneself.
The Candida cleanse diet consists of a vast removal of sugar, white flour, cheese, and yeast from one's diet for a while. There is, at this time, zero scientific evidence of Candida albicans affecting people in the way these practitioners claim it does, but this diet – perhaps because of its general avoidance of processed foods rather than anything else – tend to feel better anyway.
Heavy Metal Detoxification
, 10 11th, 2012The most prevalent kinds of heavy metal poisoning come from mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, beryllium, and hexavalent chromium. The most common ways that people are exposed to these heavy metals is often through occupational hazards. For instance, people involved in construction work, mining, or the transportation and production of these heavy metals, are often more susceptible to potential heavy metal poisoning.
When someone has been afflicted with heavy metal poisoning, the usual next step is to go through heavy metal detoxification, colloquially known as heavy metal detox. Conventionally, this detoxification is done through techniques such as dialysis or chelation therapy. Some who practice alternative medicine have theorized different types of detoxification, such as changing one's diet in order to remove the effects of heavy metal poisoning.
Combating Yeast Syndrome
, 10 04th, 2012Though there isn't yet a whole lot of definitive evidence for this, some practitioners of alternative medicine believe that the intestinal overgrowth of the Candida albicans organism, which they say causes something caused 'yeast syndrome.' This yet-proven yeast syndrome supposedly causes headaches, fatigue, and can impair memory.
To combat the Candida albicans, these alternative medicine practitioners advise what they call a Candida cleanse. The Candida cleanse often includes a diet where sugar, white flour, yeast, and cheese are not allowed, because these practitioners have suggested that it is these products that can cause the initial overgrowths.

Panel Discussions - Wednesday, July 10, 2013
Tax Revenue, Not Aid, Better For Countries Emerging from Conflict, Says Expert
"Countries have more to gain from growing their tax bases than they do from relying on international development assistance," said Kieran Holmes, General Commissioner of the Burundi Revenue Authority, at an IPI policy forum held on July 10th.
"I believe no country is too small nor too poor to expand its tax base, and even countries devastated by conflict can use domestic revenue collection to stimulate economic recovery," he said.
Mr. Holmes, who has worked in supporting countries in the Pacific, Africa, and the Middle East to build their revenue administrations, presented lessons and recommendations on domestic revenue mobilization in peacebuilding and statebuilding, and shared ways the international community can support the development of domestic revenue generation and revenue authority systems.
Investors and the business community appreciate a transparent and modern tax administration, he argued. "Building a tax system in a country implies the stimulation of the overall investment climate in the international sphere as well as in the domestic environment."
The improved business climate, he said, facilitates investment and business growth, leading to more jobs and a reduction in poverty.
Mr. Holmes went on to share some of his own experiences from his work in Rwanda and Burundi. By the end of the tax reform period in Rwanda, he pointed out that the Rwanda Revenue Authority was collecting over 90% of the government's recurrent budget requirements, which freed the country substantially from aid dependency and allowed for greater domestic investment.
While working in Burundi, the country's revenue take doubled from $247 million in 2009 to $434 million in 2012 with the creation of the Burundi Revenue Authority. Mr. Holmes explained that they recruited new staff, reduced tax rates, enacted new laws, modernized the tax administration and engaged with other agencies, which created an improved business climate in Burundi.
"It is worth noting that both Rwanda and Burundi were devastated by civil wars. Both are very small economies and both are highly dependent on external aid," he said.
Mr. Holmes recommended some key steps that are necessary to create the conditions for domestic revenue mobilization across countries. For him, the most important activity is the creation of a semi-independent revenue authority that is able to hire and fire its own employees. Other steps included: transparent recruitment of personnel; creating new modern tax laws; and having a strong, sustained and effective communication strategy that includes trade facilitation and regional integration.
Listing some of the key determinants to success, Mr. Holmes explained that strong top-level political support, long-term and active involvement across the donor community and transparency in the management of the public finances are all critical factors.
Mr. Holmes argued that the international community must ensure that international development assistance be conditional on a country's willingness to mobilize its own domestic revenue.
"States must be forcefully made aware that they cannot hope to rely on the support of taxpayers from other countries unless they are actively seeking to create the conditions whereby the taxpayers, especially the elites, of their own countries, contribute their fair share" he said. "By adopting this policy we will advance the social contract and make these states into better places for the growth of democracy and the protection of human rights."
Presenting as a discussant was John Ohiorhenuan, formerly UNDP's Chief Economist for Africa.
"Countries have much more to gain from growing their tax bases than from relying on international development assistance," Mr. Ohiorhenuan said. "Building the tax system in a country implies the stimulation of the overall investment climate and I might add, the country's own economic growth prospects."
"Tax revenue, properly managed, can far exceed the sum of international assistance and remittances," he contended, noting that there's plenty of scope for domestic resource mobilization that can make international development assistance unnecessary within a generation.
During his trip to Rwanda last year, Mr. Ohiorheuan said he saw the lessons in practice with the rise of tax systems, new laws, and tax procedures. He noted that Rwanda is already the most talked about African country in terms of its economy, a lot of it due to its tax administration.
He argued that the exceptional conditions of countries in post-conflict or fragile situations gives the international community leverage but this could be a double-edge sword, underscoring the need to ensure national ownership.
The event was moderated by Maureen Quinn, IPI Director of Programs.

Leech Therapy
They bite, slither, and slide -- and they save fingers and lives.
While the sight of a wriggling, blood-sucking leech may make many people feel queasy, the spineless worms can also help people feel better -- as NATURE's BLOODY SUCKERS shows. The ancient physician's art of using leeches has made a modern medical comeback: the worms help doctors do everything from reattach severed fingers to treat potentially fatal circulation disorders.
Leeches have been used by physicians since ancient times.
Leeches -- which are found all over the world, living mostly in fresh water -- have long had a place in the doctor's medical kit. Five thousand years ago, Egyptian medics believed that letting a leech sip a sick patient's blood could help cure everything from fevers to flatulence. And in medieval Europe, leeches were so closely associated with doctors that physicians were called "leeches" -- and they used millions of the parasites annually to treat patients.
In the 20th century, however, most doctors turned away from the worms, which in nature feed on everything from frogs to alligators. A few physicians, however, saw that leeches might play a special role in certain kinds of surgery, by helping promote blood flow to damaged tissue. That's because when leeches bite a victim, their unique saliva causes blood flow to increase and prevents clotting. As a result, once bitten, victims can bleed for hours, allowing oxygenated blood to enter the wound area until veins re-grow and regain circulation.
The leech is invaluable in microsurgery when faced with the difficulties of reattaching minute veins. Ears have such tiny veins that, in the past, no one was able to successfully reattach them. Then, in 1985, a Harvard physician was having great difficulty in reattaching the ear of a five-year-old child; the tiny veins kept clotting. He decided to use leeches and the ear was saved. This success established leeches in the modern medical world. Since then, leeches have saved lives and limbs, reducing severe and dangerous venous engorgement post-surgery in fingers, toes, ear, and scalp reattachments; limb transplants; skin flap surgery; and breast reconstruction.

Giving back to our communities has been a part of our history dating back to Arthur Guinness's work with Dublin's poor in the nineteenth century.
Our stakeholders expect global companies like Diageo to contribute to the socio-economic development of the communities in which they operate.
In recent years, we have made a meaningful assessment of the potential impact of our entire value chain on our local communities, and we are increasingly focusing our community programmes on empowering stakeholders ranging from small-scale farmers who grow our grains to the bartenders who sell our brands. Today, our commitment to giving back helps us build relationships with our stakeholders, and directly supports our business strategy.
A strong principle in this work is to engage stakeholders to understand and address local interests and concerns and, where possible, work in partnership to solve complex problems. That way, we achieve the greatest impact from our investment in development programmes.

What is IEEE R8 SPC?
IEEE Region 8 Student Paper Contest is for student members or graduate student members (who have not yet started their PhD), but have most likely already encountered some research topics or done Bachelor's or Master's thesis.
How does SPC work?
The first step is to organize local paper contests at Student Branches (SBs) and Student Branch Chapters (SBCs).
Second, SB and SBC winner's papers are sent to Region 8 SPC (email@example.com) before December 15, 2014. The Regional Oral Finals for authors of the best five R8 SPC papers will be organized at IEEE R8 EUROCON 2015 Conference which will be held in Salamanca (Spain) from 8 to 11 September 2015 (eurocon2015.usal.es).
Competing for IEEE R8 SPC begins with the organization of the local SB Paper Contest which is not an easy task, but we of course you can do it! Please mind the following SPC 2015 steps:
- Step 0: SB counselor, and other professors at your department, are willing to form a local jury to help with paper preparation and organization (and ultimately, evaluation)
- Step 1: Announce your SB paper contest and send information / rules to all members of your SB
- Step 2: Collect papers, and after reviewing them the Jury will declare the best paper(s)
- Step 3: Send the best paper(s) (prepared strictly according to the SPC rules shown below) to firstname.lastname@example.com, together with the required additional documents (also shown below)
- Step 4: Now, the appointed international Region 8 Jury will (anonymously) select five papers for SPC 2015 Oral Finals
- Step 5: Finally, the Oral Finals of IEEE Region 8 SPC 2015 will take place as part of IEEE Region 8 conference EUROCON 2015 which will take place from 8 to 11 September 2015, in Salamanca, Spain (eurocon2015.usal.es)
- Note: the necessary expenses of the authors of the five best authors will be covered by IEEE Region 8.

COLCHESTER, Vt., Aug. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Following nearly two years of planning, Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences opened its Vermont Satellite Campus today, welcoming 70 students in the inaugural class. The campus, located in scenic Colchester, Vermont, is home to the only pharmacy program in the state.
The ACPHS-Vermont campus offers a four year program culminating in a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.). The Pharm.D. is the degree required to practice pharmacy in the United States. Students entering the program have completed a minimum of two years of college coursework, with prerequisites that include biology, chemistry and physics.
The members of the incoming class were selected from more than 1,200 applicants. They represent 20 states (including three students from Vermont) and 16 countries. Their average age is 25 years old.
"When we announced plans to open the campus, Vermont was one of just three states without a pharmacy program [Delaware and Alaska are the others]," said Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences President James J.

Google to Sell Motorola Mobile-Phone Unit to Lenovo for $2.9 Billion
It's official: Google is hanging up on the money-losing Motorola Mobility smartphone and mobile devices division, but will keep most of the Motorola patents.
The Internet giant announced a deal Wednesday sell the Motorola group to China's Lenovo Group for $2.91 billion -- ending less than two years of its stewardship, under which the business dropped deeper into decline.
Lenovo's purchase price of $2.91 billion includes $1.41 billion paid at close, comprised of $660 million in cash and $750 million in Lenovo shares, with remaining $1.5 billion to be paid in the form of a three-year promissory note.
In May 2012, Google closed the $12.4 billion cash acquisition of Motorola Mobility, which the Internet giant had said at the time was driven largely by its desire to obtain Motorola's portfolio of more than 17,000 patents. Google had announced plans to acquire Motorola in August 2011. Last spring Google sold off Motorola Home, the cable and video unit, to Arris Group for $2.35 billion.
"Lenovo has the expertise and track record to scale Motorola Mobility into a major player within the Android ecosystem," Google CEO Larry Page said in a statement. "This move will enable Google to devote our energy to driving innovation across the Android ecosystem, for the benefit of smartphone users everywhere."
Google said it will maintain ownership of the "vast majority" of the Motorola Mobility patent portfolio, including current patent applications and invention disclosures. Lenovo will receive a license to the portfolio of patents and other intellectual property, and in addition Google will grant Lenovo more than 2,000 patent assets, as well as the Motorola Mobility brand and trademark portfolio.
Lenovo already sells a line of smartphones. With the Motorola deal, the company said, it will gain a strong market presence in North America and Latin America, as well as a foothold in Western Europe, complementing its existing smartphone business in emerging markets.
Motorola Mobility's current smartphones include the Moto X, Moto G and the Droid Ultra series. "The acquisition of such an iconic brand, innovative product portfolio and incredibly talented global team will immediately make Lenovo a strong global competitor in smartphones," Lenovo chairman and CEO Yang Yuanqing said in a statement.
Under Google's wing, Motorola Mobility has been in decline. For the third quarter of 2013, the unit had revenue of $1.18 billion, down 34% compared with $1.78 billion from the year-earlier period, while its operating loss in Q3 2013 was $248 million (versus an operating loss of $192 million in Q3 2012).
As of Sept. 30, Motorola Mobility had 4,259 employees, down from 4,599 three months earlier. Google is scheduled to report fourth-quarter 2013 results Thursday after market close.
Last week, Lenovo reached a deal to acquire IBM's Intel-based server business for approximately $2.3 billion. In 2005, Lenovo acquired IBM's PC business, which included the ThinkPad line of PCs.
Word of the Lenovo deal with Google for Motorola was reported Wednesday by China Daily, followed by other outlets.

At first I thought it was a super-tiny hummer feeding in the agastache -- it hovers and the wings blur just like a hummer would, and he moves from flower to flower feeding. Even the overall silhouette is similar. But then he got close to the window and I could see his body was striped. Just as thrilling, tho. I love it when a window opens a crack into the other world and I get a glimpse inside -- toads living in some clay pots, a tiny green toad once on some green shade cloth on my deck, deer asleep under the trees, a deer staring at me for a moment before disappearing back into the woods, a woodpecker bringing his baby to eat my suet. You know the kind of thing. I always take it for a special gift. Just for me, because I was the one who was there. |

The use of sub-atmospheric pressure dressings, available commercially as the vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) device, has been shown to be an effective way to accelerate healing of various wounds. The optimal sub-atmospheric pressure for wound healing appears to be approximately 125mm Hg utilizing an alternating pressure cycle of 5 minutes of suction followed by 2 minutes off suction. Animal studies have demonstrated that this technique optimizes blood flow, decreases local tissue edema, and removes excessive fluid from the wound bed. These physiologic changes facilitate the removal of bacteria from the wound. Additionally, the cyclical application of sub-atmospheric pressure alters the cytoskeleton of the cells in the wound bed, triggering a cascade of intracellular signals that increases the rate of cell division and subsequent formation of granulation tissue. The combination of these mechanisms makes the VAC device an extremely versatile tool in the armamentarium of wound healing. This is evident in the VAC device's wide range of clinical applications, including treatment of infected surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, pressure ulcers, wounds with exposed bone and hardware, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous stasis ulcers. VAC has also proven useful in reconstruction of wounds by allowing elective planning of the definitive reconstructive surgery without jeopardizing the wound or outcome. Furthermore, VAC has significantly increased the skin graft success rate when used as a bolster over the freshly skin-grafted wound. VAC is generally well tolerated and, with few contraindications or complications, is fast becoming a mainstay of current wound care.

Gear Question
2 questions:
1. I ride a burton, 152....
2 questions:
1. I ride a burton, 152. Will this fit my helmet, gear, goggles, etc and the board if I buy a 157?
2. What is the difference between this and the dakine tour bag?
Jen Martin
1. Yes it will prob fit all you need, if you put your boots between your bindings and your helmet at one end however I ride a 145 and always buy 158-160 board bags for the extra room.
2. The difference is the tour is padded and has an extra pocket. Padding is really important especially if you are taking it on an airplane. Something I always make sure I get is something with wheels if I am going in the airport with it!

Contamination is considered every damaging change produced physically, quimically and biologically speaking within life resources, that is to say, air, land and water. Contamination is the presence of a minor and unwanted constituent in another material, metal, chemical or mixture, often at the trace level. In chemistry, the term usually describes a single chemical, but inspecialized fields the term can also mean chemical mixtures, even up to the level of cellular materials.
Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes, rivers,oceans, groundwater).
Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water; and, in almost all cases the effect is damaging either to individual species and populations, but alsoto the natural biological communities.
Water pollution occurs when pollutants are discharged directly or indirectly into water bodies without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds.
Waterpollution categories
Surface water and groundwater have often been studied and managed as separate resources, although they are interrelated.[7] Sources of surface water pollution are generallygrouped into two categories based on their origin.
Point source pollution refers to contaminants that enter a waterway through a discrete conveyance, such as a pipe or ditch. Examples of sources in thiscategory include discharges from a sewage treatment plant, a factory, or a city storm drain. The U.S. Clean Water Act (CWA) defines point source for regulatory enforcement purposes.[8] The CWAdefinition of point source was amended in 1987 to include municipal storm sewer systems, as well as industrial stormwater, such as from construction sites.[9]
Non-point source pollution
Non-pointsource (NPS) pollution refers to diffuse contamination that does not originate from a single discrete source. NPS pollution is often the cumulative effect of small amounts of contaminants gathered from a... [continua]

Educational Loans
Choose a loan from the list on the right.
Interest Rates, for the 2014-2015 Academic Year.
The Direct Loan interest rates for 2014-15 are fixed as follows:
- 4.66% for Direct Subsidized Loans and Direct Unsubsidized Loans for undergraduate students;
- 6.21% for Direct Unsubsidized Loans for graduate/professional students; and
- 7.21% for parent and graduate PLUS Loans.
These rates are in effect for all Direct Loans with a first disbursement on or after July 1, 2014 and before July 1, 2015. The interest rates are calculated using a base 10-year Treasury Note Index of 2.61% plus an add-on amount for each loan program—2.05% for Direct Subsidized Loans and Direct Unsubsidized Loans for undergraduate students, 3.60% for Direct Unsubsidized Loans for graduate/professional students, and 4.60% for parent and graduate PLUS.
Under the new interest rate structure, all Direct Loans except Direct Consolidation Loans will be "variable-fixed," meaning students would receive a new rate with each new loan, but then that rate would be fixed for the life of the loan. There are also interest rate caps at 8.25% for Direct Subsidized Loans and Direct Unsubsidized Loans for undergraduate students, 9.50% for Direct Unsubsidized Loans for graduate/professional students; and 10.50% for parent and graduate PLUS.
For loan assistance, contact:
Adriana Rodriguez, firstname.lastname@example.com, 847-735-5015
Borrow Wisely:
- Wise management of your loan will establish a strong credit history.
- Borrow only the funds you need. You are not required to borrow the full amount shown on your Financial Aid Announcement. See How Much to Borrow?
- If you decide to limit borrowing, consider that - in most cases - the most appealing loan is the subsidized Stafford, followed by the unsubsidized Stafford, followed by the Federal PLUS, followed by a non-federal alternative loan.
- If you have to borrow an unsubsidized Stafford Loan, PLUS Loan or Alternative Loan, try to make at least interest payment while you are enrolled. What's even better? Begin repaying principal and interest.
Keep copies of all loan documents in a single, well-marked folder. This will make them easy to find when questions arise.
- To help insure all payments are made on time, consider setting up an automatic debit from your checking or savings account.

Brewing my AHS Stone IPA clone tonight, my first partial mash. I got the 1% alcohol boost, and I have a question about when to add it to the boil? Does it need to be added at the begining, or end, or does it matter?
I have never used it. If it is an alcohol based product, and you put it in at the beginning, 100% of it will evaporate. If it is a sugar boost of some sort, I would probably put it in at the beginning. When I want higher alcohol, I usually just add more DME, or for belgians, some invertase sugar.
It's basically dextrose (Corn Sugar), so you can toss it in the last 15 minutes of the boil.
Cheers, EdWortHaus Pale Ale, Bavarian Hefeweizen, Robust Porter, Oktoberfest Ale, Wounded Knee IPA, Rye IPA, BCB IPA, Kolsch, Apfelwein
No. It is not simply corn sugar. Who told you that? Just curious. It is a different type of corn sugar with a very high maltose and glucose content. You will not acheive the same results just using corn sugar. From Forest.
why wouldn't it be just corn sugar? corn sugar is 100% fermentable already...
It wouldn't make it dryer than the original recipe but dryer than a boosted recipe using corn sugar + maltose (because you are adding more non-fermentables with the maltose). Adding only corn sugar would just make it a bit thinner than the original. A small amount of boost wouldn't be perceptable but an extra percentage point would be 15-17% of the toal fermentables which I think would be perceived.
Who the hell is Forrest?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Him... Nah, he's the guy who owns Austin Homebrew Supplies (www.austinhomebrew.com), who posts here fairly regularly.
