Saturday Night Slant
Last updated 6/29/14
Well, today was interesting. Rumors slammed LSU message boards this morning that some LSU players would be suspended. It was later learned that the players in question were Tyrann Mathieu, Spencer Ware, and Tharold Simon, and that the offense was a failed drug test. The LSU Reveille and later the Times Picayune and Associated Press ran with stories that confirmed, through their own sources, that suspensions were indeed issued to those players for this weekend's game. Tiger fans promptly climbed tall buildings, opened their mouths (or keyboards) and spewed forth some of the most ignorant filth you can imagine. It was as disgusting as it was predictable.
Les Miles had a press conference Wednesday evening and did not confirm anything. He did not confirm that anyone is suspended. He did not confirm the names of any players who may be in any sort of trouble. And he scoffed at the mention that a failed drug test is the reason behind all of the speculation, telling one repo...

Wasps quiet on relocation rumours
ESPN Staff
August 31, 2014
Wasps have struggled to fill Adams Park © Getty Images
Wasps have admitted they are weighing up just where their long-term geographical future lies but have stayed quiet on whether they are looking at a move to Coventry. Reports in last week's Evening Standard said Wasps were considering moving some of their higher-profile matches to Coventry's Ricoh Arena, a ground they played a match in back in 2007. Rumours of the move were fuelled by Wasps' link with Land Rover, a company based in Coventry. Those reports in the newspaper said Wasps are set to end their time at Adams Park come the end of the season and favour a move to a permanent home nearer London but such a switch could take in the region of three years. And with further reports on Sunday suggesting they favour a move to Coventry, Wasps issued a statement saying they were looking into where they will be based next year but the talks are confidential. "Wasps are aware of media reports in recent days linking the club to a number of possible new stadiums," the statement ready. "Wasps has made no secret of a desire to find a permanent home which reflects the ambitions of the club. "We can confirm the search for a permanent home is continuing. However, all discussions are subject to confidentiality requirements and are therefore commercially sensitive; as such they have to remain confidential for the time being and we cannot make any further comment. "We appreciate speculation may be unsettling for our supporters and assure them we are working hard behind the scenes to secure the long-term success of the club and finding a new home we can all be proud of." © ESPN Sports Media Ltd

Clare Crawley: Drunk, Hooked Up to IVs at Bachelor Premiere!
The Bachelor's 2014 runner-up Clare Crawley got so sloshed at Monday's red carpet premiere event that one of her co-stars had to call 911, reports indicate.
The Bachelor's 2014 runner-up Clare Crawley got so sloshed at Monday's red carpet premiere event that one of her co-stars had to call 911, reports indicate.
On Bachelor in Paradise Season 1 Episode 5, we picked up right where things left off with AshLee, Clare and Graham and the aftermath of Monday's train wreck.
The second half of this special Bachelor in Paradise two-night EVENT promised to ramp up the drama tenfold following AshLee's slut shaming of Clare.
AshLee Frazier came off as an incredibly nice, sweet person on The Bachelor a few seasons ago. A bit clingy, perhaps, but certainly kind and well-meaning.
This season of Bachelor in Paradise has stripped away that facade and then some, as AshLee continues to stoop to new lows when it comes to Clare Crawley.
Bachelor in Paradise Season 1 Episode 4 welcomed back another blast from the past, and featured more of the surprising twists that have become its calling card.
If you watch Bachelor in Paradise online, you know that means tears, drama, more tears, fights and overall nonsense involving Bachelor and Bachelorette castoffs.
Clare Crawley, the woman Juan Pablo Galavis dumped in favor of Nikki Ferrell on The Bachelor this season, made no secret of how she felt about it.
Especially after he told her he loves f--king her but doesn't really know her, Clare had no qualms about laying into a man she was admittedly crazy about.
"Clare Crawley" and "dodged a bullet" could be synonymous at this point, after a Bachelor season finale where Juan Pablo Galavis broke her heart.
Not only has she moved on since being dumped, but she's happier than ever!

[quote:Anonymous Coward 23254866:MV8yMDQ5MjAzXzM0NDYxNjk5X0RFRjMzNUVD] [quote:WeAreOne:MV8yMDQ5MjAzXzM0NDYxNDA5X0NCNTVBQ0I=] You seem to think that everyone who's ever heard of David believes everything he says. [/quote] I didn't say this and I don't know where you got that idea. There's several points made in this thread that should put doubt into anyone who even thinks about listening to Icke at all. Any of the following four points (and these are just the main points) would cause to me to stop listening to him. But, this goes deeper than that. Anyone who can support #3 below is no one I even want to ever speak to or deal with. It's a person who could believe ANYTHING. And I don't have a problem with it because it's too unbelievable or "out there" or anything. I've looked at Icke's evidence for the moon matrix theory...he has NONE. That doesn't stop him from presenting it as if it's fact. All of that is bad enough but for people to actually believe it based on Icke's theorizing and nothing else (he claims that ancient legends support it but it's not true) is totally crazy or something worse. [b]1. Icke has a huge contradiction concerning one of his main claims (see the original post in this thread).[/b] "To believe in a contradiction is to abdicate your belief in the existence of the worldaround you and the nature of the things in it, to instead embrace any random impulsethat strikes your fancy - to imagine something is real simply because you wish it were.A thing is what it is, it is itself. There can be no contradictions. In reality, contradictionscannot exist. To believe in them you must abandon the most important thing you possess:your rational mind. The wager for such a bargain is your life. In such an exchange, youalways lose what you have at stake." - Terry Goodkind [b] 2. "Icke" fits the criteria of a charlatan. [/b] David dIcke claimed to be a prophet in 2006 (see the video below). Icke fits the definition of a charlatan because when someone has made multiple predictions that have failed to come to pass but they continue to call themselves a prophet, such as: Icke claimed Saddam Hussein was dead 1991 (not 2006 when he actually died.) "In defiance of Icke's predictions for the early 1990s, Cuba is still to be found on the map of the real world, New York City remains upright and the white cliffs of Dover are still standing." Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/columnists/article-231320/Meet-Glenn-Hoddle-new-david_dickhead.html#ixzz2BWO4s68D [b]3. Icke is leading people to the following insane beliefs:[/b] "Since my little bundle with David dIcke and of course him owning himself so spectacularly by claiming that [b]the moon is a giant spacecraft inhabited by aliens controlling us with mind rays[/b], I've had PMs from people, two lots of PMs. One is, "Thank you for waking me up I didn't actually realize what I was doing, I just got caught in this stuff.".... Do this: go and start telling your friends and all your families and your workmates and everyone that you meet, [b]start telling them that you believe what David dIcke has said. You believe that the moon is a giant spaceship full of aliens controlling us with mind rays[/b].... You discover that your wife has been having an affair behind your back and you say to her, "Why did you do it?" And she says, [b]"I'm sorry baby but the aliens in the moon with the mind rays, they made me do it. It's not my fault." Are you gonna believe her? Are you?[/b] I don't think you are, are you? But, you see, this is the problem. If you're prepared to accept that the moon is a giant spaceship full of aliens controlling you with mind rays then you're gonna have to accept that your wife or your girlfriend or your husband or whoever one day can turn around and say that to you..." The above is quoted from this video: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzm98IFtoQ8[/youtube] [b]4. Icke saying "Japan is over" is irresponsible at the very least. He has no credentials, background, or expertise to make such a judgment. [/b] Wouldn't it be awful if his fans in Japan and the rest of the world were scared to death because they think he's a prophet and that what he says will come to pass? I hate to see unnecessary suffering like that. How about you? [/quote]

Irrelevance of Hardware to Network Service Provisioning Speed
September 10, 2014
Inarguably, the pressure is on "the network" to get in gear, so to speak, and address how fast its services can be up and running. Software-defined architectures like cloud and SDN have arisen in response to this pressure, attempting to provide the means by which critical network services can be provisioned in hours instead of days.
Much of the blame for the time it takes to provision network services winds up landed squarely on the fact that much of the network is comprised of hardware. Not just any hardware, mind you, but special hardware. Such devices take time to procure, time to unbox, time to rack and time to cable. It's a manually intensive process that, when not anticipated, can take weeks to acquire and get into place.
Register For DevOps Summit "FREE" (before Friday) ▸ Here
Enter virtualization, cloud, containers and any other solution that holds, at its core, abstraction as a key characteristic. Abstraction all but eliminates the time it takes to procure hardware by enabling software to be deployed on any hardware, making the procurement process as simple as finding an empty server in the data center. After all, the majority of networking functions are just very specialized software running on very specific hardware. Decouple the two and voila! Virtualized, containerized or cloud(erized) networking. Instantaneous! No more waiting for the network. Just push a button and you're done.
Only you aren't.
See, that's not counting the time it takes to actually provision and configure the desired services.
Most of the lamentable time it takes to provision network services has absolutely nothing to do with the underlying hardware. Whether it's commoditized off the shelf hardware or custom designed silicon makes no difference whatsoever in the actual time required to provision network services. Both proprietary and commoditized hardware support a layer of abstraction - of virtualization - that enables them to be sliced and diced into discrete, consumable chunks of computing power. Within that "container" are the actual network services that need to be deployed to provide the breadth of network services required to keep today's applications scalable, secure and fast enough to satisfy both consumers and business constituents alike.
To point to "hardware" as the primary impediment in rapidly provisioning these services is ludicrous. The hardware has nothing to do with the configuration of the minute and complex details associated with any given network service today. The slowdown is in the configuration of the services and the complexity of the topologies into which such services must be deployed.
This is the nature of application-focused networking. Each service - in addition to the nuts and bolts of IP addresses and VLANs and DNS entries - requires specific settings to ensure the network is able to provide the services upon which business rely to deliver applications. An optimized TCP stack for one application can mean disastrous performance for another. The specific application security details that protect one application may result in gaping holes in yet another application and completely break the functionality of another. The route one application takes through the network may provide excellent performance for one application but introduce unacceptable latency for another.
It is this reality with which network service configuration is concerned and why services absolutely must be application-driven with respect to their particular configuration. One size does not fit all when it comes to applications.
And thus it is these configurations - not the underlying hardware model - that impede service provisioning in the network and slow down application deployments. Manually flipping a bit here and a byte there and writing rules that deny access to that device but allow it from another are time consuming, error prone and terribly inefficient.
Virtualization of network functions a la NFV is only a panacea when one is deploying services that can be configured exactly the same, every time. That happens to be a model which works for service providers, who are concerned with scaling out specific functions in the network and not necessarily supporting new application deployments. In the enterprise, where the focus is on delivering individual applications with their own unique performance, security and reliability profiles, virtualization is nothing more than a means of squeezing out a greater economy of scale across existing hardware resources - whether commoditized or not.
Enterprises whose continued success relies on the fickle and highly volatile demands of consumer-facing applications are not so fortunate. Each network service must not only support the basic needs of an application but provide value in terms of improving performance, ensuring security or maintaining availability. To do that, each service must be tailored to the application - and sometimes to each client device - in question.
That takes time, and whether that service is deployed on a piece of commodity or custom hardware is irrelevant. The configuration is accomplished in software, which is the same whether running in a container, a virtual machine, or in plain old software daemon form.
That's why operationalization of the network is so critical to improving the alacrity with which application deployments are concluded. Going "virtual" isn't going to change the requirement for provisioning and configuration of the services, it only addresses the underlying process of acquiring and provisioning the appropriate resources.

After Powell killings Wash. may tighten child custody rules
Friday , March 08, 2013 - 9:55 AM
OLYMPIA, Wash. -- Washington lawmakers are looking to implement new rules to protect children in custody disputes.
The state Senate unanimously approved a bill Thursday in response to the case of missing Utah mother Susan Powell. Josh Powell was the subject of an investigation into his wife's disappearance last year and locked in a custody battle with her parents when he killed himself and the couple's two young children.
The proposed law would require state officials to consult with law enforcement about visitation matters when a parent is an identified suspect in a criminal investigation that could impact the safety of the child. Powell was not a declared suspect in his wife's disappearance but was named a person of interest.
The bill now goes to the state House.

I agree

It's not really entertaining...
It just lasts too little... I did 3 runs and stopped playing...

This a pretty good starting concept, and like others have said, a sequel with upgrades, different areas, and a better drawn character would be more than welcome.
And you get points for quoting Queen

Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
simple gameplay. Not too hard to figure it out.
A system for making you faster would be nice (upgrades).
Say, increase the speed boost per pepper, desrease friction, increase starting distance.
If you plan to make a sequel with improvements, that would be awsome!
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Good game
but short, repetitive, and also no upgrades etc. make it boring fast.

When I was at the grocery store I saw a big sign that read "Hatch Chiles are here! Get them while you can!" With a sign like that, how could I refuse? Even though I wasn't quite sure what a hatch chile was, I bought a few to bring home and immediately began doing some research about them. Come to find out these green gems are somewhat coveted in the food world. And after putting them in this quesadilla, I know why.
Hatch chile season is pretty short, running from late August through mid October. The peppers are a little milder than a jalapeno and are most often roasted before using. After roasting, many people will freeze them to keep them all year long to spice up all kinds of dishes like green chili, eggs and enchiladas. In my case, I couldn't resist using them immediately and decided that quesadillas would be the best way to go. The peppers add a nice roasted pepper flavor without being overly spicy, but just to be sure, make sure you remove the seeds.

Nearly Half of Americans Pirate Casually, But Pirates Purchase More Legal Content

Only a narrow majority support piracy punishments, while nearly half of people pirate
The latest edition of Columbia University's American Assembly's "Copy Culture" study on piracy and American society has been published and
familiar themes
appear yet again. The study examines
copyright infringement
and public sentiments regarding punishment in the United States and Germany
In the study authored by American Assembly VP
Joe Karaganis
and Dutch freelancer/Ph.D researcher
Lennart Renkema
, it is revealed that 45 percent of U.S. citizens and 46 percent of German citizens actively pirate media. Those rates jump to nearly 70 percent when looking at younger demographics.
When it comes to peer-to-peer (P2P) pirates, the authors note an interesting correlation with legal purchases. They write:
They buy as many legal DVDs, CDs, and subscription media services as their non-file-sharing, Internet-using counterparts. In the US, they buy roughly 30% more digital music. They also display marginally higher willingness to pay.
The authors note that most pirates illegally download casually. They write:
In both countries only 14% of adults have acquired most or all of a digital music or video collection this way. Only 2%–3% got most or all of a large collection this way (>1000 songs or >100 movies / TV shows).
The study also found that while only a smaller percentage (around 22 percent in the U.S. among those under 30) copy privately from friends, the practice is more common in Germany. However, the study points out that most people in the U.S. believe private copying is legal, when in fact it carries severe criminal penalties under current, mostly unenforced, laws.
Piracy tends to be remote and pervasive, but mostly casual.
Germans tend to be more supportive of punishments for pirates; 59 percent of Germans back punishments, while only 52 percent of Americans back punishments for filesharers. In America only 37 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds support such penalties, while in Germany 56 percent of the younger demographic supports the penalties.
Only around 20 percent of people in the U.S. and Germany support stricter penalties, though, such as
disconnecting pirates from the internet
. Most are fine with content providers policing posted content and removing infringing links or sending warnings to pirates. But when it comes to stricter punishments or the premise of the
government stepping in
, support sharply drops off.
Perhaps the most interesting conclusion of the study is just how much support there is in both countries for the idea of offering an unlimited pass to media content for a monthly fee. According to the report:
Sixty-one percent of Germans would pay a small broadband fee to compensate creators in return for legalized file sharing.
Forty-eight percent of Americans would do so—a surprisingly high number given the relative invisibility of such proposals in US debates.
The median willingness to pay was $18.79 per month in the US and €16.43 in Germany.
The study found that Germans were only about half as likely pay for TV or own a smartphone (e.g. 35 percent of Americans own smartphones vs. 18 percent for Germans). A broad range of age groups in both countries own DVDs and CDs, but when it comes to digital media, younger age groups substantially outnumber older ones in ownership.
Americans tend to have larger music and DVD collections.
The study was conducted via telephone interview of 2,303 U.S. adults and 1,000 German adults. All those surveyed were over 18. The study authors make it clear that they were careful in how they worded questions to prevent respondents from feeling pressured to lie about their own piracy habits, a complaint the authors make about other studies.

RE: Private home copying is often legal.
"That law doesn't conflict with the aforementioned cases, but works through a loophole to essentially block private copies." No it doesn't. You seem to be assuming that I'm talking about breaking BT+ or CSS for movies. Neither I nor the author I responded to limited the discussion to digital video works protected by an effective copy-protection scheme (what the DMCA anti-circumvention clauses apply to). I specifically thought of audio, game cartridge ROMs, or even multi-generational copies of videos (copy of a copy = someone else broke that law; not you).
If I made my own copyright-protected music then I can copy it and distribute it freely. Anyone who receives those copies can copy and share privately as long as they don't sell it. Corporations don't have any more rights than I do in that situation except where a copy protection measure was circumvented. Got it? It's perfectly legal as long as it isn't anonymously distributed, which is the precedent Napster set after allowing anon distribution on a large scale. This annoys me because I may have made the song song specifically to allow large scale anonymous distribution despite my assertion of ownership.
And, yes, more than simply CDs and music formats are legal to copy privately from an original. You seem to be hung up on digital video formats, so I'll use one as an example: I got a mini DVD video of extreme sports what was included with a Wal-Mart Exclusive version of the Gamecube game "1080 Avalanche." I considered sharing copies with a few friends because it was hard to find, not sold on its own, and completely unencrypted. It would have been perfectly legal for me to do so. It was actually stolen from me in 2004 and I do wish I had a backup (gray area; I still own the original). Other examples: I own several Japanese Super Famicom games (Japanese Super Nintendo). I can dump the manufactured mask ROMs with my EEPROM programmer and patch the resulting file with an IPS patch that applies an English translation. I can then program that onto a blank EEPROM chip and put it back into the cart to play an english version on my SNEs or SFC. Perfectly legal. I did not distribute it. I did not sell it. If I sold it including the original chip, then I exercised my right granted by First Sale Doctrine and did not profit off of their copyrighted work. Any resale value increase was from my own work as long as I remain within the single copy afforded to me to do with as I please by First Sale Doctrine.
That leads me to another point. The "single backup" rule that everyone quote as part of copyright law is actually part of standard EULAs. The "Don't Copy That Floppy" video LIED.
My point is that it sets a bad precedent to use blanket statements like "private home copying is illegal" and it sets a bad precedent to assume that copying a copyrighted disc, like the unprotected 1080 promo, is illegal.
"The whole principle [of censorship] is wrong. It's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't have steak." -- Robert Heinlein

"That kind of statistics is worrisome…. [But] we recognise that these kinds of transactions still exist on the lower level [of government]," said deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte, hinting that corrupt practices are not done at a higher level of government.
Noting that private citizens must do their part to stop corruption in government, Valte said: "We ask the public not to give favour or donations or other things asked for by government officials in exchange for government service."
"We encourage people to report these things to authorities. We have government websites where these things are discussed. Complaints can be directed to the Office of the Ombudsman," Valte added.
"[These things are happening] while our efforts mean to clean up things that we don't like, such as giving favours, gifts or other things in exchange for government service. It is very clear that these are against our anti graft and practices act," Valte said.
She did not categorically say what the government was doing concretely to stop government officials from continuing their corrupt practices.
When Aquino campaigned for the presidency in May 2010, he talked about the "straight road," to underline his campaign against graft and corruption.

OCZ Technology RevoDrive 3 X2 PCI-E 480GB SSD Review - PCMark Vantage - Drives with Data Testing
With a massive capacity and nearly unlimited performance, the RevoDrive 3 X2 will be a great addition to your workstation.PCMark Vantage - Drives with Data Testing
For a complete breakdown on the Drives with Data Testing please read this article. You will be able to perform this test at home with the files provided in the article - full instructions are included.
Brief Methodology
SSDs perform differently when used for a period of time and when data is already present on the drive. The purpose of the Drives with Data testing is to show how a drive performs in these 'dirty' states. SSDs also need time to recover, either with TRIM or onboard garbage collection methods.
Drives with Data Testing - 25%, 50%, 75% Full States and Dirty / Empty Test
Files needed for 60 (64GB), 120 (128GB), 240 (256GB)
60GB Fill - 15GB, 30GB, 45GB
120GB Fill - 30GB, 60GB, 90GB
240GB Fill - 60GB, 120GB, 160GB
Empty but Dirty - a test run just after the fill tests and shows if a drive needs time to recover or if performance is instantly restored.
HDD1 - Windows Defender
HDD2 - Gaming
HDD3 - Windows Photo Gallery
HDD4 - Vista Startup
HDD5 - Windows Movie Maker
HDD6 - Windows Media Center
HDD7 - Windows Media Player
HDD8 - Application Loading
The first time we ran into asynchronous flash paired with a SandForce SF-2281 was when we tested the OCZ Agility 3. The Agility 3 and RevoDrive 3 X2 share the same flash type, asynchronous ONFi 1.x. On the chart we can see how async flash affects the performance of the SF-2281 controller by comparing the Agility 3 to the Vertex 3. When data is populating the async flash the drive slows considerably.
Moving on to the RevoDrive 2 X3, we see a double whammy hit, the first from the lack of TRIM and the second from the choice of asynchronous flash. With the RevoDrive 3 X2 populated with 50% data capacity the drive slows to below a single OCZ Vertex 3 240GB drive. This is a really big problem for users looking for ultimate performance and paying a premium price for it.

Hugo Lloris Incident Shows Premier League Needs A Concussion Policy
Late in the second half of a 0-0 draw between Tottenham and Everton, Hugo Lloris threw his body towards Everton striker Romelu Lukaku before he could latch onto the long ball and score. In the process, Lloris' head collided against Lukaku's knee, leaving him dazed and clearly concussed as Lloris had noticeable bruising and redness on his face.
Watching the game after incident let you know that this was a player who clearly should not have continued playing.
In the post-game press conference, Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas praised Lloris for being a warrior and soldiering on after the incident even though he could tell that Lloris had no recollection or idea of what had happened to him.
Ladies and gentlemen, those words by Villas-Boas tell you all you need to know, as the fact of the matter is that the time has come for the Premier League (and frankly every league) to institute a concussion policy.
The issue of concussions is a big topic of conversation for those who are fans of the the NFL given that the league has instituted certain protocols to handle potential head injuries and concussions following the settlement of a lawsuit. Every other major American sports league has also established their own concussion protocols.
What makes what happened to Lloris on Sunday more deplorable is the fact that his concussion was clear to those of us watching the game.
The fact that Villas-Boas could tell his player was not "all there" and the fact that team doctors still let him play showed a great disservice to the player's welfare by both coach and the team medical personnel. Some may say that this was a freak incident and there's no need to make a big deal out of it. To those individuals, I say you would be wrong.
As was pointed out, this was the fourth such incident in the Premier League this season of a player having potentially suffered a concussion as a result of a clash. One of those involved Lukaku, the player whose knee Lloris' head hit.
In those previous incidents, only once was a player taken off and not allowed to continue, and that happened with Mathieu Flamini of Arsenal a few weeks ago after he was kicked in the head and suffered a cut, and was checked out for a possible concussion.
Why was his case the only time a player was not allowed to continue playing? As pointed out in a retweet by Irish journalist Miguel Delaney, Arsenal's team doctor Gary O'Driscoll used to be the doctor for the England National Rugby Team, and the rugby union is ahead of soccer when it comes to dealing with head injuries.
Still not convinced that the Premier League needs a concussion policy? There is plenty of research on both sides of the Atlantic that suggests that soccer is not immune to the issue of head trauma. There have been links to former players in Italy with ALS aka Lou Gehrig's Disease and in a Saturday article in the Washington Post, the headache issues that have troubled Brianna Scurry in retirement should shed some light.
The time has come for the Premier League to institute a concussion policy, because letting Lloris continue playing was reckless.

By the Way ... Don't Scoff at Alternative Medicine
IN THE Good Health pages last week a number of GPs revealed how they also practised alternative medicine, from homeopathy to naturopathy, and used this on their patients.
This prompted much debate, for it apparently goes against the tide of medical opinion. For instance, the British Medical Association and the Commons Science and Technology Committee have said that the NHS should stop funding treatment by homeopathy: cutbacks are essential across the board and so money should not be poured into treatments for which there is no clear evidence of benefit.
Many regard homeopathy, which uses substances diluted many times in water to treat patients, as bogus. However, many GPs are members of the Faculty of Homeopathy and find it of value in some patients, on some occasions, for some types of conditions. In fact, the doctors featured last week are not an isolated group -- many GPs regularly use treatments such as osteopathy, massage, homeopathy and reflexology.
This is because all of us see conditions every day -- take irritable bowel syndrome or fibromyalgia as examples -- where conventional medicine does not have much to offer.
The sceptics say the GP is doing little more than harnessing the placebo effect (placebo: Latin for 'I will please') and there has been much science applied to researching this. …
