Castle Cary (/ˌkɑːsəl ˈkɛəri/) is a small market town and civil parish in south Somerset, England, 5 miles (8 km) north west of Wincanton and 8 miles (12.9 km) south of Shepton Mallet.
The town is situated on the River Cary, a tributary of the Parrett.
The site of Cary Castle is above the town. It was built either by Walter of Douai or by the following owners, the Perceval family, after the Norman conquest. It was besieged by King Stephen in 1138, and again in 1153. By 1468 the castle had been abandoned in favour of a manor house which was built beside it. The site was excavated in 1890 and demonstrated the foundations of a 24 square metres (258 sq ft) square tower, although only the earthworks are visible today.[2]
The parish was part of the hundred of Catsash.[3]
The manor was held by the Lovels and descended by marriage in 1351 to the St Maur (Seymour) family and in 1409 to the Baron Zouche. The manor was bought in the 1780s by the Hoares of Stourhead in Wiltshire.[4]
The town grew around the mediaeval weaving industry and is home to a horsehair weaving factory.
The Living History Group is an active group of local amateur historians in the town who have published several books concerning the history of Castle Cary and its personalities. In 1900, for example, Castle Cary cricket club provided five players for the Devon and Somerset Wanderers team that won the only Olympic cricket title. The Cricket Club is to mark its 175th anniversary in 2012, with a celebration of the Castle Cary players who played in 1900, whilst the London Games take place.
The town has become increasingly popular with people moving out of London and looking for somewhere quiet to raise a family. The high-speed railway line to London, good local schools and services, along with an attractive rural setting have all played their part in the recent growth of the town. Nearby is Wyvern Waste's recycling centre, based on the old army camp at Dimmer. It holds educational tours around the site for schools.
On 19 June 2004, Castle Cary was granted Fairtrade Village status.
On 29 May 2008 Castle Cary (and a large part of Somerset) were hit by a rapid flash flood[5] after a violent downpour shortly after midday. The local drainage was soon overwhelmed and roads were covered in several inches of water flowing towards the centre of town. Water inundated the Horse Pond Inn, the White Hart public house and the Co-op supermarket.
The parish council has responsibility for local issues, including setting an annual precept (local rate) to cover the council's operating costs and producing annual accounts for public scrutiny. The parish council evaluates local planning applications and works with the local police, district council officers, and neighbourhood watch groups on matters of crime, security, and traffic. The parish council's role also includes initiating projects for the maintenance and repair of parish facilities, as well as consulting with the district council on the maintenance, repair, and improvement of highways, drainage, footpaths, public transport, and street cleaning. Conservation matters (including trees and listed buildings) and environmental issues are also the responsibility of the council.
The town falls within the Non-metropolitan district of South Somerset, which was formed on 1 April 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972, having previously been part of Wincanton Rural District.[6] The district council is responsible for local planning and building control, local roads, council housing, environmental health, markets and fairs, refuse collection and recycling, cemeteries and crematoria, leisure services, parks, and tourism.
Somerset County Council is responsible for running the largest and most expensive local services such as education, social services, libraries, main roads, public transport, policing and fire services, trading standards, waste disposal and strategic planning.
It is also part of the Somerton and Frome county constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election, and part of the South West England constituency of the European Parliament which elects six MEPs using the d'Hondt method of party-list proportional representation.
Castle Cary railway station is on the main Reading to Taunton line and the Heart of Wessex line. It is about 1 mile (1.6 km) north of the town. Every year around the time of the summer solstice this railway station is used by thousands of festival goers who travel to nearby Worthy Farm for the Glastonbury Festival (about 7 miles from Glastonbury);— a parade of free buses and coaches take ticket holders to and from the festival site.
The town is on the Monarch's Way long-distance footpath.
Attractions in Castle Cary include a small circular eighteenth-century prison called the roundhouse. This is a temporary prison, or village lock-up. It was built in 1779 by Mr WM Clark for £23, from money left to the poor of Castle Cary in 1605.[7] The structure is circular, stone and has a domed roof. It is 7 feet (2.1 m) in diameter and 10 feet (3.0 m) high with two iron grills for ventilation.[8] The building has an inner and outer door. The interior of the building has a single stone privy. In 1992 the Lord of the Manor, Sir Henry Hoare Bart, gave the building to the parish council.[9]
The Market House a grade II* listed building built in 1855 in anticipation of increased trade after the projected arrival of the railway in 1856, by F.C. Penrose. It replaced the former house on the site which had stood since 1616, and incorporating some features from the earlier building.[10] The market house contains the local Castle Cary and District Museum. There is a varied collection of exhibits spread over the two floors of the building. The earliest are local fossils including ammonites and a display about the discovery of an ichthyosaurus at Alford. Local industry and agriculture are represented with displays on the production of rope and hemp and a collection of agricultural implements, tools and relics.[11] A room is dedicated to the live and work of Parson James Woodforde who was born at the Parsonage in nearby Ansford in 1740. He was later curate at Thurloxton before moving to Norfolk. For nearly 45 years he kept a diary recording an existence the very ordinariness of which provides a unique insight into the everyday routines and concerns of 18th century rural England.
Hadspen House is Grade II* Listed manor house outside the town. The original farmhouse was built by William Player between 1687 and 1689; the Hobhouse family acquired the house in 1785 and have owned it ever since. The gardens were restored by the garden writer and designer Penelope Hobhouse in the late 1960s.[12]
The Grade II* listed Top Mill Building at Higher Flax Mills which was built in the 19th century is on the Heritage at Risk register.[13]
The largest church in the town is All Saints', which dates from 1470 and is notable for its high steeple, which contains six bells dating from 1760 and made by Thomas Bilbie of the Bilbie family.[14] It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.[15] The Cosenes monument in the churchyard, which dates from the 16th century, is on the Heritage at Risk register.[16]
There is also a Methodist church and St Andrew's in the neighbouring town of Ansford.
Notable people from the town include the 18th-century diarist James Woodforde who was curate between 1765 and 1775 and Douglas Macmillan, founder of the Macmillan Cancer Relief charity. The Macmillan Way walking trail passes through the town.
The town has a primary and a secondary school. Castle Cary Community Primary School dates from 1840,[17] whereas Ansford Academy built in 1940 with additional rooms for science, technology, mathematics and modern languages being added in the 1970s. A new £1.7 million Sports Centre was completed in 2005.[18]

Union - MC Metafuse?
Anyone have any experience with this light weight binding. I have a Ride Highlife UL and was looking for an Ultralight binding or Flow's NX-GT's.
I read a couple of reviews about last years Metafuse breaking on everyone who reviewed. Don't know if others who DIDN'T review had that experience. Anyone have an opinion on the binding that has one or even ridden with the binding?

Last season we had a very isolated issue with Heelcups. Those things are injected in Italy, shipped to Canada where they get Nano coated, then shipped to China for assembly. A huge pain in the butt. Basically what happened is during "step 1" of injection whoever was running the injection machine that morning didn't allow the tooling to heat up long enough. Keep in mind that we only make about 400 pairs of these. I think we estimated that 20-25 of them were faulty, which all ended up in the US. So that 25 or so pair all happened within about a 5 minute span. That's how precise things need to be. The problem wasn't anything to do with design or material and it's not going to happen again. Wait till you guys see what we have for next year. Oh man! |

In the case of the MC, the base is medium and the highback & straps are medium to stiff. Most importantly,everything comes down to personal preference. Some of our jibbing team guys like stiff bindings, and some of our guys you would assume would want stiff binders, want soft bindings. Some guys don't care, and will rip on anything they strap into. |

So maybe you can clear this up for me. Overall, what is your stiffest binding. In a Johan thread he told me it was the Force solely because of the baseplate.

I'm definitely not a Union rep, but I rode the 2013 Forces and Chargers last season at a C3 demo day on Stevens Pass. The Chargers were definitely the stiffer binding. It's also what the C3 guys all said.

I'm very excited to say we are getting ready to bring a new bub into our lives in the next few months. I fell pregnant alot sooner than expected, but I'm definitely not complaining! So now I'm organising things for the wedding (though most are done now) as well as thinking about everything we'll need for the baby.
My gosh I had no idea how many things you need to buy for a baby – just check out this list of baby registry essentials at first-time-mama that I'm using to tick of what I need and create my registry for the baby shower. It sure is going to be expensive, but it's kind of fun too. And this newborn essentials list isn't even that big compared to some out there – the first one I came across had a tonne of things listed as 'essentials' that are clearly un-necessary, like a wipes warmer!?!?
Now I wasn't totally clueless about what I'd need to buy before doing my research, like I knew I'd need a stroller, crib, car seat, bouncer, bottles etc. – but I didn't know that there's about 5 different configurations and a heap of really good strollers for newborns, not to mention the variations and things you need to look for in other products. Seriously, I thought I'd just go and choose one that looks good and fits the budget. The baby products world really seems a little crazy, there is a product for just about everything to make your life easier which can make getting down to the things you really need a bit more difficult.
If any of you are preparing for a baby and are feeling a little overwhelmed, my best advice is to go and get the check list I mentioned earlier and read the guides at first-time-mama.com!
Well that's my little rant for now about baby essentials, I'm sure there'll be plenty more over the coming months!

Prospect Wells (3/1) was an emphatic winner of the Grade 2 totepool National Spirit Hurdle at Fontwell.
Paul Nicholls had three of the six participants in the race and while Dark Lover was the one to find favour with the punters, the Graham Wylie-owned eight-year-old looked to be travelling with particular fluency throughout, and he kept on well once given the office by Noel Fehily with two to jump.
Meister Eckhart, who was having his first run for Alan King, ran a cracker on a first appearance at the racecourse for 345 days, and though he tried hard to chase down the winner, it was ultimately in vain pursuit.
The winner holds a number of entries across the Cheltenham Festival and Sky Bet price him at 20/1 (from 25/1) for the Coral Cup and 33/1 (from 50/1) for the World Hurdle.

It is official: SystemVision 5.10.3 is released and ready for download from SupportNet. The SystemVision engineering team made over 120 updates and improvements for this new release. Here are some of the highlights:
- Relative and Absolute statistical tolerances support improved flexibility when defining device parameter tolerancing. "Relative" defines a tolerance as a percentage of the default value; "Absolute" defines a tolerance as a fixed delta from the default.
- Asymmetric VHDL-AMS statistical distributions give you more flexibility when setting designs for a Monte Carlo (statistical) analysis. Asymmetric distributions can be applied to a model's internal or external parameters, can be coupled with symmetric or asymmetric tolerances, and now work for SystemVision's Sensitivity, Worst Case, and Extreme Value analyses.
- Model Wizard is renamed as "Model and Symbol Wizard" to reflect new support for generating simulation models and schematic symbols from existing design schematics. The wizard is now SystemVision's consolidated, central location for creating models and symbols for your simulations.
- Experiment Manager is re-released after key improvements to help you setup, run, and manage simulation experiments for your designs.
- New datasheet-based models add flexibility and more detail to your system analyses. Several standard datasheet models expand the Datasheet Model Builder's capabilities. And the first additions to SystemVision's new advanced datasheet model library support important device effects such as aging, high temperature, and low temperature.
- 64-bit waveform analyzer and configurable analyzer memory allocation let you run longer/larger simulations (think a Monte Carlo analysis of several thousand runs for a complex system), and easily work with larger simulation databases.
- Shared Library updates make it easier to include your custom libraries in a new or existing project, and to access your custom libraries from SystemVision's Search/Place Symbols browser.
And SystemVision 5.10.3 includes a sneak peek at two new productivity tools:
- Worst Case Scenario Manager uses the advance datasheet models (mentioned above) to help you setup and run multiple worst case simulation scenarios. The result is a detailed view of your system's worst case performance as components change due to aging and temperature effects.
- Batch Simulation Tool lets you setup multiple simulation and analysis tasks that can run while you work on other projects, or while you are away from the office. Along with running batch simulations, you can easily compare new simulation results with those from an earlier analysis – a handy feature if you are updating simulation tools, tweaking model behavior, etc. And you can tell the tool to send you an email when a batch simulation starts and ends.
The Worst Case Scenario Manager and Batch Simulation Tool are beta features for this release. Read the release notes for more information on accessing SystemVision's beta features.
If you are already a SystemVision user, download the new release and run the install program. Then be sure to review the release notes for more release details. And if you are new to SystemVision and want to take a closer look, contact your local Mentor Graphics sales and support team, or add a comment to this blog post and I will get back to you.

Hamsters need fresh food on a daily basis. There are two theories regarding what time to feed; in the morning or in the evening. One side says in the evening because that's when they are up and about. The other side says to feed in the morning. Results of studies conducted indicate that a hamster doesn't sleep all day long. Instead, he wakes up a minimum of once every two hours for a "bite to eat." Plus, in the wild this nocturnal little creature is out foraging for food throughout the night. His "treasures" are taken back to the burrow and added to the "food stash" that he raids during the day. How much to feed? All they can eat! Typically a Syrian only requires about a tablespoon of food per day, plus a supplement or fruits and vegetables. Since the Dwarf has a higher metabolism it is assumed they will consume approximately the same amount. That doesn't mean to ration food at a tablespoon per day, like all living animals, the daily intake fluctuates. Depending on the size of the food dish, there should be an ample supply of mixed grains to select from. Hamsters instinctively know what grains or seeds to eat to give their body the proper nourishment and essential vitamins to maintain good health. A staple diet from a respected manufacturer is a good start, but don't forget fresh vegetables! Hamsters love vegetables and need them to stay at top form. Don't over do it though, a small amount of grass, clover, or carrots a day is fine. Too much lettuce or leafy greens can cause diarrhea. To increase the protein content of a premixed food offer some dry cat treats or dog biscuits. The biscuits will not only provide added protein but also help grind the teeth down through the gnawing process.WHAT A TREAT!
A treat can be special and beneficial at the same time. In addition to the fruits and vegetables already listed, there are several other foods that a hamster considers a treat; but the dietician considers a nutritional dietary supplement such as: Eggs: Hamsters love hard-boiled eggs and they are high in protein. They are especially good for pregnant mothers and young stock. However, eggs should remain an occasional treat. Care must be exercised in removing all the uneaten egg within 24 hours after feeding so it doesn't remain in the cage and begin to rot. Fish Liver Oil: Rich in Vitamins A and D, a few drops of fish-liver oil on top of the grain can be given once a week. It is also possible to buy puppy meal already containing cod-liver oil, which greatly enhances the ease of feeding it. Meat: The subject of giving meat has been debated for years. Some believe that feeding meat will encourage cannibalism. However, there are reports of breeders who feed meat regularly and never experience abnormal cannibalism. Meat can be provided as small chunks of beef or mutton (totally avoid pork), canned dog foods or mealworms, which are a favorite for most hamsters. Milk: The basic problem with milk is that it needs to be given in a dish, which can readily be tipped over. Milk also turns sour quickly in warm weather. Because of the inherent problems, milk is seldom given to hamsters, with the exception of pregnant mothers, young and ill stock. Be sure to remove the dish and thoroughly clean it before the milk sours. Mixed Bird Seed: Another ideal supplement is the seed sold for budgerigars and canaries. It can either be mixed with the grain or a teaspoonful can be fed once a week. Monkey Chow: No, your hamsters won't swing from the chandelier if you feed them Monkey Chow. A high quality Monkey Chow (or kibble) is packed full of all sorts of nutritious stuff: corn, wheat germ, whole eggs, brewers yeast, various proteins, etc. Like many other treats, it is recommended that it not be fed more than once a week. As with the cat treats and dog biscuits, Monkey Chow is also good for assisting with keeping the teeth ground down. Yeast: Yeast is rich in Vitamin B which acts on the nervous system and is extremely effective in reducing stress. (Stress is the primary cause of many hamster diseases, in particular wet tail.) Feeding yeast once a week could very well be one of the greatest preventative measures for many illnesses. Give a pinch of nutritional yeast once a week. (Nutritional yeast, found in health food stores, isn't bitter like baker's yeast and your hamster will relish the flavor.) As an alternative, one-half of a yeast tablet found in pet shops for dogs and cats can be fed once a week. (When feeding your hamster yeast tablets, use plain tablets; not those with garlic since garlic is hard on a hamsters' kidneys.)TO BOWL OR NOT TO BOWL
Toss it on the floor of the cage or put it in a bowl? Because hamsters are known hoarders, many are of the opinion that their food might as well be put on the cage floor because that's what they will do with it anyway. Quite the contrary, if accustomed to having their food in a dish, hamsters view that as their "stash" and don't feel the urge to hoard it because there is a continuous supply. Granted, mothers take some to the nest for the little ones and there are those that put some in their nest to snack on in between naps during the day. Bear in mind however that dishes provide cleaner food in addition to the ability for you to monitor your hamster's eating habits. It only takes a glance at a dish to determine whether or not he/she is eating. (With the grain spread all over the floor of the cage there's no way of knowing for sure whether or not any substance has been taken.) The unused portion of grain should be dumped daily and replaced with fresh grain. (Don't discard the used grain instead save it and feed it to the wild birds, chipmunks, squirrels, etc. - they will savor every bite.)A BALANCED HAMSTER DIET
A balanced diet provides all the ingredients to maintain a hamster in good health and condition. Some foods require the addition of other food items so the body can utilize them effectively. The primary items of a balanced diet are:- Proteins
- Carbohydrates and Fats
- Vitamins
- Minerals
- Water

Muffin rezept. Two Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake. This, friends, is where procrastination gets me.
I was staring at the computer, mired in writers' block. I clicked on that Stumble button I installed in my toolbar but never use. The Infamous Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookies - StumbleUpon. Now, I have a chocolate chip cookie recipe that I swear by.
I love it, I think it is incredible, and I haven't changed my mind about that. However, as much as it pains me to say it, these chocolate chip cookies by Jacques Torres are absolutely, without a doubt, the best chocolate chip cookies that I have ever made or tasted in my entire life. I guess that's why they call him Mr. How To Make Perfect Brownies. I've tried lots of brownie recipes: Boxes, scratch, frosted, plain, nuts, chips, fudge … Each of them has something to like, but depending on my mood I might want a change of pace.
Not any more. My wife found this recipe, and it's perfect. I'm done looking. My favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies – and how to pimp them. October 21st, 2011 My favorite part of having written two cookbooks? Readers' emails, hands down. In these hectic times where people rarely take the time to tell others how much they appreciate their work, readers' emails are THE BEST.

Like other megacities, the large cities of India are grappling with the conflicting logic of globalization and localization. As new networks of global trade and finance create new opportunities, developer-friendly architecture and planning are appropriating contemporary discourses, and producing urban forms hitherto unknown. Globalization and its influence are thus transforming the city as physical, social, and cultural boundaries are being renegotiated.

Duct-taped students: Should Ohio teacher be fired?
Duct-taped students: A harmless prank? An Ohio middle-school math teacher may be fired for posting Facebook photo of her duct-taped students.
(AP Photo/Tony Dejak)
Akron, Ohio
A northeast Ohio middle-school teacher has until later this week to respond to an allegation that she posted a Facebook photo of her students with their mouths covered with duct tape.
The Akron Public Schools Board of Education voted last week to pursue the firing of Melissa Cairns. She's a math teacher at Buchtel Community Learning Center.
The school district says the photo, posted on Cairn's personal Facebook page, showed 8 or 9 out of her 16 students with duct tape across their mouths. The caption read: "Finally found a way to get them to be quiet!!!" The district says a colleague of Cairns' notified a supervisor of the photo.
The Akron Beacon Journal reports that Cairns was put on paid leave Oct. 19. She hasn't responded to requests for comment. Pending Cairns' request for a hearing, the board is expected to vote on Cairns' termination at its next meeting on Jan. 28.
The Akron's NewsChannel5 quotes Cairn's as saying that the students started taping their mouths as a joke. Her mistake was to post the picture on Facebook.
Cairn says she gave a girl a roll of duct tape to fix her binder, but the student cut a piece of tape, placed it over her mouth and laughed.
"The other kids in the class thought it was funny also, and they proceeded to pass the tape and scissors around the class. The students, the majority of the class, ended up putting a piece of duct tape across their mouth," Cairns explained.
"I would never in a million years do anything to harm students," Cairns said.

Chairman Oxley has been both a thoughtful and energetic leader of the Financial Services Committee since he assumed the Chair in 2001. From the start, he successfully coordinated the integration of broad new areas into the Committee's jurisdiction, truly transforming the "Banking" Committee into the "Financial Services" Committee. He has also demonstrated great skill and wisdom in building Committee consensus on a number of exceptionally complex issues.

Improve Your Microcirculation & Improve Your Health!
Is Your Microcirculation System Healthy?
You can ensure life-giving blood
is circulating properly
throughout your entire body!
When it comes to the cardiovascular system, most people think in terms of the heart, veins and arteries that carry blood throughout the body. And that's typical. For decades now, modern medicine has focused on the largest components in the cardiovascular system which includes the heart and the large coronary arteries that feed the heart.
But have you ever stopped to ask, "If the cardiovascular system feeds the heart, what exactly feeds the cardiovascular system?" The quick answer is, the cardiovascular system itself. You see, it's the cardiovascular system that carries oxygen from the lungs and nutrients from the stomach throughout the entire body so they can be used by vital organs, like the heart, but also by the cardiovascular system itself.
And that all makes sense. But what many people don't know is that it accomplishes this by utilizing an incredibly small circulation network called the microcirculatory system.
Your microcirculatory system
If you've never heard of your microcirculatory system, you are not alone. As already mentioned, it's the heart and large coronary arteries, or the "macrocirculatory" system that gets all the attention. When something goes wrong there, a heart attack or stroke is the likely result.
-Sponsored Ads-
But what medical researchers now know is that poor microcirculation is one of the single biggest contributing factors to the health problems we commonly associate with the macrocirculatory system. In other words, a heart attack is most likely the long-term result of a damaged microcirculatory system.
For example, we've all heard of blockages in the coronary artery, and we all know those are bad. If a doctor tells you that, in the very next sentence he is probably going to send you to a heart surgeon to schedule by-pass surgery.
But what caused the blockage and why is it in that particular place? Was it cholesterol? Arterial calcification? If that was the case, shouldn't the blockage extend the length of the entire artery? Why do these blockages tend to form in just one place in an artery? For years, the explanation given by heart specialists is that these blockages are skip lesions, meaning they skip around and form randomly.1
Maybe … but the newest breakthrough theory in cardiovascular health appears to make a lot more sense. This theory, which is becoming more and more accepted by alternative health experts, is that arterial blockages form where the minute microcirculation blood vessels that feed the main arteries with oxygen and nutrients, shut down. When these extremely small blood vessels, called vasa vasorum, (from Latin—vessels of the vessels) become clogged and can no longer feed an artery, atherosclerotic lesions or atherosclerotic plaques can form.2
It's these atherosclerotic plaques that eventually choke off healthy arteries, preventing blood flow to and from the heart and to and from vital organs. And they might very well have never formed if the vasa vasorum, the tiny blood vessels that feed the arteries and remove waste, had continued to function properly.
So you see, all this focus on keeping the large veins and arteries healthy misses the point. It's the microcirculatory system, the one that contains upwards of 60,000 miles of capillaries, arterioles, venules, and vasa vasorum that needs to be nourished and protected.
Threats to your microcirculatory system
Before we explain how to nourish and protect your microcirculatory system, let's first look at what threats these small blood vessels face and how they can be damaged.
We know that these small blood vessels, just like the large ones, are really just hollow tubes protected by an endothelial lining called an endothelium. The endothelium is made up of a smooth, thin layer of cells that regulates expansion and contraction of vesicles to allow oxygen and vital nutrients to flow in and out of the bloodstream.
Endothelial dysfunction is one of the biggest threats to the microcirculatory system.3 Under normal circumstances, the body utilizes the amino acid l-arginine to produce nitric oxide that helps to relax the endothelium and allow sufficient amounts of blood to flow. If the nitric oxide production is interrupted, the endothelium can collapse onto itselfand restrict blood flow.
Studies show that a build up in the blood of harmful heavy metals like chromium, iron, lead and mercury interfere with l-arginine's production of nitric oxide, resulting in poor microcirculation.4 It is for this reason that people with high levels of toxins often suffer from circulatory related symptoms like cold hands and feet, angina, diminished vision capabilities, and high blood pressure.5
Nutrients & Their
Effects on Microcirculation
EDTA Chelation
Removes heavy metals and toxins that can damage blood vessel walls and impair nitric oxide production. Also prevents the production of harmful free radicals and keeps blood vessels free of debris.
Vitamin K1 & K2
Prevents blood vessel calcification and promotes blood vessel elasticity. Also regulates blood coagulation for proper circulatory function.
Natural blood thinner that improves blood viscosity and dissolves existing blood clots while preventing new ones from forming.
Oxidative damage caused by free radicals is another threat to the endothelium.6 Free radicals are reactive molecules that are unstable because they are missing an electron. In an effort to replace their lost electron, they frantically bump into and damage the molecules that make up the cells in your body. In the process, they cause oxidation of body tissues.
When a free radical comes in contact with the inner lining of a small capillary, microscopic injuries result. This process is called lipid peroxidation and is recognized as one of the underlying causes of atherosclerosis. Eventually the build-up of fat, cholesterol, toxic metals and other substances at the site of injury narrows the capillary restricting blood flow. The key is to neutralize free radicals before they damage your arteries … and that's done with antioxidants. Heavy metals are catalysts for free radical oxidation, which is another good reason to remove them before they can set off the chain of events that can harm the endothelium.
Other threats to small capillaries and vasa vasorum include elevated blood viscosity, improper blood coagulation, and blood vessel calcification. If the blood is too thick, it won't flow fast enough to deliver oxygen to—and remove carbon dioxide from—vital organs. When there is a problem with blood coagulation, a thrombus or blood clot can develop. In a small blood vessel, a thrombus can completely cut off blood flow, which can result in the death of surrounding tissue supplied by the vessel. And finally, when the body does not properly process calcium and send it to bones where it is needed, it can accumulate in blood vessels resulting in arteriosclerosis, also called calcification or hardening of the arteries.
Nutritional solutions for your microcirculatory system
Eliminating or reducing your risk to these microcirculation threats is the first step toward protecting your overall cardiovascular system, and ultimately your health. Following are a number of nutritional solutions that work both independently and together to keep your microcirculatory system healthy:
EDTA-based oral chelation
Chelation comes from the Greek word "claw," meaning "to grab," which is exactly what EDTA does. When a molecule of EDTA travels through the bloodstream and gets near a toxic metal such as lead or mercury, it grabs the destructive particle and binds tightly with it, pulling it out of the membrane or body tissue it was embedded in.
EDTA supports normal endothelial function by removing heavy metals that impair nitric oxide function.7 It also prevents the production of free radicals that cause cellular damage in the endothelium and other organs throughout the body.
Here's how it works: When metals, minerals and other toxins are in the body, they act as the catalyst for oxidation reactions, including lipid peroxidation. This triggers the production of free radicals. But when EDTA is in the blood, it removes the metals and minerals before they get a chance to catalyze, or start the oxidation reactions.
The result? The production of free radicals is dramatically reduced and their destructive influence is prevented. Plus, by removing the lead stores that have built up in the endothelial lining, the production of nitric oxide is restored which allows the blood vessel to expand and contract normally.
And while oral EDTA works hard in the bloodstream to remove heavy metals and prevent oxidation, it also does double duty by chelating toxins in the digestive tract before they are absorbed, preventing them from ever entering your bloodstream.
EDTA chelation therapy is not new. It's been around for a long time. In fact, EDTA is the standard FDA approved treatment for lead, mercury, aluminum and cadmium poisoning. The American Heart Association also recognizes chelation therapy as a treatment for heavy metal poisoning. But today, we are finally starting to understand that EDTA oral chelation, by removing toxic heavy metals from the microcirculatory system, is working to keep health problems from forming in the larger macrocirculatory system.8
One important note about EDTA oral chelation … while EDTA will chelate toxic heavy metals preferentially, it can also chelate essential minerals as well. Therefore it is important to supplement with minerals while taking an EDTA oral chelation product. Reputable health supplement companies offer companion products that contain vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that enhance EDTA's effectiveness and prevent mineral deficiency.
Less reputable companies sometimes combine EDTA with vitamins and minerals in the same capsule. Be wary of these because as soon as you digest the capsule, the EDTA will chelate the minerals included in the capsule, thus defeating the purpose of removing heavy metals from the body.
Vitamin K1 and vitamin K2 provide healthy coagulation and prevent calcification
Vitamin K comes in several different forms. Vitamin K1 is the form used in the liver to activate clotting factors, while vitamin K2 is the form used in the rest of the body to activate other vitamin K-dependent Gla-proteins, which prevent calcification of blood vessels and organs, including the heart and kidneys.9

Northwest Park
In 2008, the city of Eau Claire approved plans for a new community park on the northwest side of town. Park developers asked the Chippewa Off-Road Bike Association to develop a system of mountain bike trails at this 120-acre site near the North Crossing and the Chippewa River.
Through numerous volunteer hours, the trails at Northwest Park (NWP) have become an awesome reality. NWP has quickly become a favorite destination for winter fat-bikers as well as mountain bikers looking for a challenging and fun course to hone their skills on.
The majority of trail building has been completed as of 2012 resulting in approx. 6 miles of bike trails. 2013 will bring more opportunities to help with some finishing and maintenance work of the trail system at NWP.
Watch CORBA's calendar for trail days and other volunteer opportunities.
Here is a map of Northwest Park that shows existing trails as of Fall 2012;

Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe combines all the fun of open-top motoring with the security of a hard-top.
Saturday, May 12, 2012
A folding hard-top version of the Mazda MX-5 sports car adds function to fun, says Iain Dooley, PA senior motoring writer.
Engines – If you have to ask then you're not an MX-5 sort of person. Seriously though, Mazda's compact roadster is an all petrol affair. Over time engine capacity has grown to match the car's expanding waistline, which now means a choice between 1.8 and 2.0-litre units. Neither offer supercar performance but the latter will deliver more oomph to satisfy keen drivers.
Exterior – Still a familiar shape after all these years, this generation of MX-5 stays faithful to the original but also boasts a little more room inside and generally beefier appearance to help boost its kerb appeal in the big bad world. The Roadster Coupe's body hard-top roof is a nice addition.
Interior – If you're expecting a flash cabin it's time to look away now, as the MX-5's interior boasts a pleasingly subtle ambience. Its durable nature does mean that having the hood down in all weathers shouldn't be a problem, while there's enough secure storage space to make living with it easy enough.
Driving – What more needs to be said about the legend that is the MX-5? The classic front engine, rear-wheel drive layout is key to the car's appeal, and there's just enough power – not too much – to make it enjoyable and exploitable in equal measure. Even if you're a sports car novice you'll enjoy it, while experts will revel in the car's easy-going nature. In Roadster Coupe mode there doesn't seem to be a huge sacrifice regards performance, although it's a car that's likely to appeal to those more interested in form over function
Ownership – So long as you're comfortable with the modest amount of space in the boot and cabin, the MX-5 is an easy car to live with. Its compact dimensions make for a stress-free parking and urban driving experience, although rearward vision isn't great with the roof up. Inexpensive to run, the Roadster Coupe offers better protection from the elements, yet the folded mechanism is unobtrusive.
What to look for – Along with all the right documents and a comprehensive service history, overall condition is important as these cars are either pampered or driven hard. The Roadster Coupe is a little different as it's positioned at the luxurious end of the scale. That said, the roof mechanism must work flawlessly, and the drive experience shouldn't throw up any refinement issues – squeaks, rattles, leaks.
Model history – 2005, Mazda launches its latest generation MX-5 roadster. Traditional front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout remains, although car and petrol engine capacities have grown slightly. Soon after launch, a Roadster Coupe appeared with a folding hard-top for added refinement and weather protection.
Reasons to buy – Brand image, car's history, driver appeal, folding roof refinement.
Reasons to beware – Compact cabin, modest overall storage space, fabric roof variant the keen driver's choice.
Pick of the range – Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe 2.0i Sport.
What to pay – 2007 07 £9,125; 2008 08 £10,675; 2009 09 £12,125; 2010 10 £13,675. Figures relate to showroom prices for cars in A1 condition.

In Response To: Dental Work/Canker Sores (Cerise)
Try using a toothpaste without Sodium LaurylSulphate. Since switching from Crest and otherpopular brands my canker sores have gone fromfrequent to almost never. The Sensodyne CoolGel brand/flavor is a good one that can usuallybe found at the likes of WalMart. Beware thatnot all of the Sensodyne flavors are withoutthe SLS.
Along the same lines, I frequently had sores on my head, and they have been somewhat alieviatedsince I stopped using name brand shampoos (whichcontain SLS). I have not found a suitablesubstitute, but am currently using a glycerinebar soap.

Here in Provo we know how to celebrate the Fourth of July. We have fireworks, a parade, family barbeques, a street fair, even hot air balloons. It's a rollicking good time to be in the happiest of valleys! With such a high concentration of Mormons in Utah valley, it goes without saying that this super patriotism is part and parcel of Mormonism. It is hard to argue that Mormonism, an American-born religion, has become one of the nation's most patriotic religions. I see this as a result of the importance Mormon theology places on individual moral agency. In a discourse delivered on April 1843, Joseph Smith stated, "I want the liberty of thinking and believing as I please. It feels so good not to be trammeled" (DHC 5:340). A few months later, Smith stated that "it is love of liberty which inspires my soul—civil and religious liberty to the whole of the human race. Love of liberty was diffused in to my soul by my grandfathers while they dandled me on their knees" (July 9, 1843, HC 5:498–99). That sentiment has persisted to this day, and, agency is something we Mormons believe we have been fighting for since the premortal war in heaven.
Yet there is another strain in Mormon thought that resists this pull of individual agency: conformity to Church authority. In a Church where we believe we have continuing revelation, obedience becomes the hallmark of commitment. In his book on Mormon culture, People of Paradox, Terryl Givens notes the irony "that the church Joseph founded is one of the most centralized, hierarchical, authoritarian churches in America to come out of the era famous for the 'democratization of religion' (8). This creates in Mormon culture an "ever-present tension" as Givens calls it, "between submission to an ecclesiastical authoritarianism without parallel in modern Christianity and an emphasis on and veneration for the principle of individual moral agency" (15). Givens continues: "Without moral independence, says the LDS scripture, 'there is no existence.' 'When our leaders speak,' the thinking has been done, says the (officially disavowed but widely accepted) LDS saw" (15).
Richard Poll once posited two types of Mormons based on this tension: the "Iron Rod" and the "Liahona," the one emphasizing obedience, the other defending agency. A historian by profession, Poll seemed to privilege the Liahonas as the more authentic voices of Mormonism. However, Givens sees these two poles as paradoxical and inherent in the individual Mormon. He also sees them as essentially productive for Mormon literary and artistic expression. I like this idea, as I constantly find myself pulled between cultural conformity and the desire for personal individuality.
As an undergraduate in college, I was deeply affected by Thomas Rogers' plays Huebner and Fire In The Bones (a play about the Mountain Meadows Massacre), which so starkly portray the perils of blind conformity and radical independence. I was likewise moved by Eugene England's "Obedience, Integrity, and the Paradox of Selfhood" and Hugh Nibley's commencement address "Leaders to Managers: The Fatal Shift." I saw how this struggle for individual identity played out in a Church culture that values sameness in works like Levi Peterson's "Christianizing of Coburn Heights" and Neal Chandler's "Benediction." So discussion of this tension was part and parcel of my education.
I wonder, however, if Mormon culture continues to recognize this central tension. We often take for granted ideals of preserving individual agency in the political sphere, but we seem to value a rigid conformity in Church culture. We also seem to distrust any act of civil disobedience, despite our own history of resisting an oppressive, often cruel, government. I take some comfort in the fact that the conformity-loving Mormon people received so warmly Greg Whiteley's New York Doll, a documentary about the wildly eccentric Arthur "Killer" Kane. Yet I am troubled that we found little room for the multi-cultural, multi-religious depiction of characters in Richard Dutcher's States of Grace. So I wonder where we, as a culture, are headed. Are we expecting more conformity or tolerating more diversity? Are we more or less comfortable with disagreement. Can we value diverse voices within our culture?
On this Independence Day, it seems appropriate to consider what works explore this central tension in Mormon thought. And I'm interested to hear how that tension continues to foster great literature.

Kenyans who have attained the age of majority which is 18 ought to have identity cards. This document was used by the colonial government to monitor or is it minimise the movement of Kenyans during the preparation and struggle for independence. The document was to always hang around the neck. It was known as Kipande then. A read of the book called Britains Gulag by Caroline Elkins can give you an idea of how Kenyans suffered in the hands of the colonial master during the pre-independence era.
The kipande has since remained with us but in a less oppressive manner. It is a crime to walk around without a national identity card if you have attained the age of majority. Those of us who were in Nairobi during the 1982 coup will tell you what it was like to walk around without a national identity card.
You cannot transact any business in Kenya without an ID. It is the most accepted form of identification in all walks of life. We all know that you cannot vote or exercise your political rights without this tiny but powerful document. It contains a lot of information. In a bid to comply with the constitution, the Immigration minister has developed a Bill that is likely to become an Act of Parliament to make provision for the identification and registration of Kenya citizens, for issuance of national identity cards and for purposes connected therewith.
This Act of Parliament shall apply to all persons who are citizens of Kenya and who have attained the prescribed age of registration and issuance of ID cards. The concerned office shall establish, develop and maintain a register of all citizens to whom this Act applies, in which there shall be entered the following particulars like ones civil status data. This means birth, marriage, death and divorce data. It is also known as the Civil Status Registrar in some countries.
Other particulars shall include ones ID card number, full names, sex, date of birth, mother's name and her national identity card number, father's name and his national identity card number, guardian's name and national identity card number (where applicable), marital status. if married, spouse(s') name(s) and national identity card number and tribe.
Upon registration of an applicant under this Act, a registration officer shall process and issue a National Identity card in the prescribed manner. A registered person may apply for change of particulars in the register upon such terms and conditions as may be prescribed under this Act.
Where the facial features or biometrics or both the facial features and biometrics of a registered person have been permanently defaced or otherwise altered whether through accident, medical procedure or other cause the registered person shall be required to report such event to a registration officer and the registration officer may issue a replacement National Identity card and enter the particulars of the replacement in the register.
The Director may decline to change the particulars of a registered person appearing in the register if in his or her opinion such change will result in a change of the registered person's Identity, notwithstanding that such a change is permissible under any other written law or registration system.
Every person of full capacity who attains or has attained the prescribed age of registration and is unregistered shall be liable to registration under this Act and in the former case shall within three months of attaining the age, and in both cases present himself or herself before a registration officer and for that purpose shall permit his or her photo, finger and thumb or toe or palm impressions to be recorded in the manner prescribed.
An application for a National Identity card shall be accompanied by the applicant's birth certificate and either one of his parent's National Identity card or in the case of a Kenya citizen by registration or naturalisation, the certificate of registration or certificate of naturalisation.
In case of any person incapacitated by illness, age, or other reason from applying for registration or for a National Identity card, it shall be the duty of the parent, guardian or other person responsible for the welfare of that person to take steps to cause the person to be registered and to be issued with a National Identity card.

A Michigan Story on Lessons Learned and Action Steps to Take
The winter months have arrived and with them comes a certain madness, specifically March Madness. On March 12, 2012 the NCAA men's college basketball tournament will commence. Most of the focus will be on cheering for the teams we picked to win our brackets; however, as Michigan learned last year, this isn't the only thing we need to focus on.
On March 3, 2011, with less than 30 seconds left in overtime in Fennville High School's final regular season men's basketball game, a winning layup was scored that brought Fennville's team an undefeated record. With district playoffs in Fennville's future, the gymnasium was full of celebration. Within moments, the crowd went silent as their star player collapsed to the ground. Wes Leonard, the player who had scored the winning basket moments before was now unconscious. Over 2,000 fans stood stunned, waiting for paramedics to arrive. Although an AED was present at the school, it was not charged and CPR was not performed because people did not think that cardiac arrest could be at fault in someone so young. Wes was later declared dead at a local hospital and the autopsy showed that he died of cardiac arrest due to an enlarged heart.
Sudden deaths of young athletes bring attention to an important public health problem known as sudden cardiac death of the young (SCDY), which occurs in non-athletes, too. On average, an estimated 66 athletes die suddenly of cardiac cause each year in the United States. Each year in Michigan alone, approximately 300 people aged 1-39 years die suddenly of a cardiac cause. Importantly, SCDY is known to have a strong hereditary component in many cases.
