FDA Approves Duopa (carbidopa and levodopa) Enteral Suspension for Parkinson's Disease
Posted 12 Jan 2015 by Drugs.com
NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., Jan. 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ – The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved AbbVie's (NYSE: ABBV) Duopa (carbidopa and levodopa) enteral suspension for the treatment of motor fluctuations for people with advanced Parkinson's disease. DUOPA is administered using a small, portable infusion pump that delivers carbidopa and levodopa directly into the small intestine for 16 continuous hours via a procedurally-placed tube. Duopa was approved by the FDA as an orphan drug, a designation granted to products intended for the treatment of rare diseases or conditions affecting fewer than 200,000 patients in the U.S. "There is unmet need for treatment options for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. As the disease advances, it can be difficult to control motor features," said C. Warren Olanow, M.D., Professor, Department of Neurology and Department of ... Read more

Levodopa May Beat Newer Meds for Long-Term Parkinson's Care: Study
Posted 11 Jun 2014 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, June 11, 2014 – When it comes to which drug works best for patients with newly diagnosed Parkinson's disease, older may still be better, a new study finds. Research published June 10 in The Lancet finds that the dopamine drug levodopa still outperforms newer medications for the long-term care of people newly diagnosed with Parkinson's. "This study lays to rest lingering questions among both people with Parkinson's disease and their doctors about which drug is most beneficial when first beginning treatment for the disease," said James Beck, vice president of scientific affairs at the Parkinson's Disease Foundation (PDF). In the largest-ever trial of Parkinson's disease treatment, levodopa offered patients better mobility and a higher quality of life than the two main alternatives – drugs called dopamine agonists and monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitors. The study ... Read more

Experimental Gel May Help Those With Advanced Parkinson's
Posted 18 Apr 2012 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, April 18 – A gel form of two common Parkinson's drugs delivered via a feeding tube-like device may help people with advanced disease reduce medication side effects and possibly avoid brain surgery. That's the report from researchers who found the experimental levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel works better than a standard pill regimen in reducing "off" time in people with advanced Parkinson's disease. About 1 million people in the United States are living with Parkinson's disease, a progressive movement disorder marked by tremor, slowness and/or rigidity. The disease slowly destroys the nerve cells in the brain that produce the chemical dopamine, which controls muscle movement. Treatment with oral levodopa-carbidopa – brand names include Sinemet, Sinemet CR and Parcopa – helps replace dopamine levels, but higher doses and long-term use of the oral drugs can cause ...

Parkinson's Drugs Linked to Behavior Problems in Study
Posted 30 Mar 2011 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, March 29 – Parkinson's disease drugs called dopamine agonists appear to cause impulse control problems in almost one-quarter of patients, says a new study. Previous research has linked dopamine agonists, which include Mirapex (pramipexole) and Requip (ropinirole), to impulse control disorders, such as gambling addiction and hypersexuality, and to compulsive behaviors, such as binge eating, overspending and excessive computer use. In this study, Mayo Clinic researchers analyzed Parkinson's disease patient records over two years. "What we found was that as many as 22 percent of patients during that two-year period had a new-onset impulse control disorder," lead investigator and neurology fellow Dr. Anhar Hassan said in a Mayo Clinic news release. The higher the dose of dopamine agonist, the more likely a patient was to develop an impulse control disorder, the researchers found. ... Read more

Parkinson's Drugs Tied to Compulsive Behaviors
Posted 10 May 2010 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, May 10 – Medicines used to treat Parkinson's disease may increase the risk of impulse control disorders, such as problem gambling, compulsive shopping and binge eating, researchers warn. In a new study that included 3,090 patients being treated for Parkinson's at 46 movement disorder centers in the United States and Canada, the researchers found that 13.6 percent of the patients had impulse control disorders. These impulse disorders included gambling (5 percent), compulsive sexual behavior (3.5 percent), compulsive shopping (5.7 percent) and binge eating (4.3 percent), and nearly 4 percent of the patients had two or more of these disorders. Impulse control disorders were more common among patients taking dopamine agonist medications (17.1 percent) than in those not taking the drugs (6.9 percent), the study authors found. Other factors associated with impulse control disorders ... Read more

Cutting Parkinson's Drug Dose Linked to Withdrawal Effects
Posted 14 Jan 2010 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Jan. 13 – Reduced dosages of dopamine agonists, drugs routinely used to treat Parkinson's disease, can cause symptoms similar to those experienced by addicts in withdrawal, such as anxiety, panic attacks, pain, dizziness and drug cravings, researchers say. The symptoms of what the researchers have dubbed "dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrome" have been linked to a disruption in levels of dopamine in the brain, according to the study published in the Jan. 12 issue of the Archives of Neurology. "Like cocaine and methamphetamines, dopamine agonists work by stimulating the reward pathways in the brain," senior study author Dr. Melissa J. Nirenberg, said in a news release from Weill Cornell Medical Center. "For this reason, it makes sense that they would engender similar withdrawal symptoms, particularly in those with high cumulative drug exposure," explained Nirenberg, associate ... Read more

The vehicle is powered by Tecumseh gasoline engine with 6 hp and surprisingly reaches top speed of 40 mph (approximately 60 km/h) due to its centrifugal clutch. Another interesting (or weird…) feature is that you can drive it sitting on the driver's seat or standing up and showing your head and chest above the roof. This is possible due to a special pivoting driving stick which may […]

The playboy, the other playboy, the Officer-Rinaldi-loving playboy, the newbie who has a thing for playboys, and the married man; together, they make an awesome undead-ass-kicking team.
It doesn't matter what their weapon of choice is – lampshades, balloon strings, baseball bats or their entire squad car – it's the partner that matters on Death Valley. Whoever has their back, HAS their back. And we've got the reasons why our favourite team-ups from California's Undead Task Force work (and also when they don't'!).
Let's keep our fingers crossed this is enough to bring it back for a second season in 2012!
a. WHY THEY WORK: Kirsten needs to help when fighting zombies, werewolves, vampires or creepy guys. And the camera guys have no problem staying out of her way while document every kung fu chop she delivers. And remember that time she helped them carry their equipment while they carried her dead zombies? WHY THEY DON'T: There's no reason they don't. Kirsten and that cutie brunette camera guy totally need to hook-up.

U.S. wants clown rap duo's lawsuit against FBI tossed
Lawyers for the government and fans of Insane Clown Posse clashed in court Monday over whether the FBI can be sued for describing them as a gang
By Ed White
Associated Press
DETROIT — Lawyers for the federal government and fans of rap-metal duo Insane Clown Posse clashed in court Monday over whether the FBI can be sued for the negative fallout of describing them as a loosely organized gang.
Some fans, called Juggalos, claim to have lost custody of children, lost jobs and been denied housing simply because they enjoy the music of the duo from the Detroit area. Another fan was told he couldn't apply to the Army without removing or covering Insane Clown Posse tattoos, usually a man running with a hatchet.
Justice Department attorney Amy Powell said the group and its fans have no standing to sue. She said the government is not responsible for how police agencies use information in the 2011 national gang report.
Powell said a "subjective chill" as alleged by plaintiffs was not enough to be in court.
"There is no general right of protection to a social association," she said, referring to First Amendment violations argued by Insane Clown Posse and its fans.
The FBI report labeled the Juggalos as a "loosely organized hybrid gang." It said those who identify as Juggalos have committed assaults and vandalism, and a "small number" of them have engaged in more serious crimes.
There is no reference to Juggalos in the 2013 report, Powell told U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland.
Saura Sahu, an attorney for four fans, encouraged the judge to keep the lawsuit alive. He said the government's analysis of gangs is critical information for police but the report "went too far here."
Cleland suggested the government has the upper hand in the case. He said he'd probably make a decision in July.
Insane Clown Posse members Joseph Bruce, or Violent J, and Joseph Utsler, known as Shaggy 2 Dope, are plaintiffs but didn't appear in court Monday. They are known for wearing face paint when they perform.

Molding Compound
Thought I'd share this with you........While talking to a lady from the Clay Guild in town......the subject of molds came up and I said I had not tried (nor intended to) the Suze Weinburg product that is two part and makes a mold. I believe the name is Gedeo. Way too pricey for me.....This lady suggested a product named Belicold. It's used for making cold molds. Quite a bit cheaper and a larger quanity....1.2lbs. The name of the company is Rio Grande. Will link to the site....
Thanks for the link! I really enjoyed looking at their PMC stuff. Didn't know that the PMC3 was out on the market, and didn't know there was a PMC conference in OH this July. Rats! I've already committed to the Artiology conference in June or I'd go to it.
Did you happen to talk to this woman about using dental alginate for molds? It's even cheaper than this Belicold, but I don't know anyone firsthand who has used it with poly clay or PMC. Can the flexible Sculpey be used for molds? Lucky you to have a local clay guild!
Well I thought lucky too until I realized they meet on the other side of town.....about 50 miles. Just a little far. She didn't say anything about the dental alginate but I plan on asking my dentist to give me some old tools for clay so will ask her about this substance. I thought you would like the info on the PMC3.

This Week in God, 3.14.15
First up from the God Machine this week is an unexpected group of critics raising concerns about suspect tales from Fox News host Bill O'Reilly.
As regular readers know, activism in the political sphere from Roman Catholic nuns has become increasingly common in recent years, as evidenced by the Nuns on the Bus tour in 2012, criticizing Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) far-right budget plan.
Soon after, Sister Simone Campbell and her group, NETWORK, a National Catholic Social Justice Lobby, invited Mitt Romney "to spend a day with Catholic Sisters who work every day to meet the needs of struggling families in their communities." (He declined.)
Rachel noted on the show that summer, "I have one thing to say here personally, not as a TV show host here but just as a person who happens to be related to some nuns: don't mess with nuns. It's not a warning. It's not advice. It's not a threat. It's fact that I have learned from personal experience. Ask anybody in my family, if you mess with nuns, you will lose every time. You will always regret messing with nuns."
With this in mind, Fox's Bill O'Reilly has faced increased scrutiny recently, claiming that he "saw nuns get shot in the back of the head" while he was in El Salvador in the early 1980s. When evidence made clear that was impossible, O'Reilly said he was referring to photographs he'd seen.
This week, some nuns seemed unimpressed by the Fox host's comments, most notably nuns from the Maryknoll Sisters who issued a statement to Brian Stelter.
"Maryknoll Sisters were deeply saddened when our Sisters were killed in El Salvador, and shocked when we learned of Mr. O'Reilly's statement inferring he witnessed their murder," the statement said."This is, of course, untrue and we hope Mr. O'Reilly will take greater care in the public statements he makes in the future," it added.The Ursuline Sisters of Cleveland also offered a statement, calling for reporters covering the tragedy to do so with a spirit of "integrity and honesty."
As best as I can tell, O'Reilly has not yet responded to the nuns' criticisms. I reached out to Fox News for comment yesterday, but I haven't heard back. I will update this piece if the network responds.

As the Republican signatories to an open letter to Iran's ayatollah scramble to make excuses for their political-spectacle-run-amok, there is a growing consensus that rather than strengthen America's resolve with tough talk, all they've really managed to do is leave America's global standing ...
Friday's Mini-Report, 3.13.15
Today's edition of quick hits:
* ISIS: "More than 40 Iraqi soldiers were killed after ISIS militants dug a mile-long tunnel under a local army headquarters and planted around 300 explosives under the base, a top regional official told NBC News Friday."
* Ferguson: "A manhunt continues in the shooting of two police officers during protests in Ferguson this week, as the nation's eyes are once again trained on this small, beleaguered Midwestern city."
* Retired Major Gen. Paul Eaton called the Iran letter from the 47 Senate Republicans as "mutinous" and possibly "illegal." As for Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), the ringleader behind the scheme, Eaton added, "What Senator Cotton did is a gross breach of discipline, and especially as a veteran of the Army, he should know better."
* More on this on tonight's show: "Russian President Vladimir Putin is in good health, the Kremlin said on Thursday, dismissing rumors that the leader was suffering from an illness after a foreign trip was canceled."
* Ebola: "An American healthcare worker infected with Ebola in Sierra Leone [is in] serious condition at the National Institutes of Health, the NIH said Friday. The unidentified patient is the 11th Ebola case treated in the U.S."
* VA: "President Barack Obama on Friday will announce new measures to address the healthcare crisis facing veterans at the Phoenix VA medical center where long wait times and falsified records were first discovered."
* They're right: "A group of 104 legal scholars and immigration law instructors signed a statement calling the Texas judge's decision that blocked President Barack Obama's immigration executive action 'deeply flawed.'"
* Baby steps: "China's emissions of climate-warming carbon dioxide fell last year for the first time in more than a decade, offering fresh evidence that efforts to control pollution in the nation of 1.4 billion people are gaining traction."
Wisconsin's Johnson tries new defense for Iran letter
The letter to Iran from 47 Senate Republicans this week has become an international fiasco, prompting its GOP signatories to come up with creative excuses for their radical antics.
The first defense, oddly enough, is that Republicans were simply being "cheeky" with their attempt to sabotage American foreign policy. When that proved unpersuasive, GOP officials tried to blame President Obama for their letter. That seemed pretty silly, which led Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to try blaming a snowstorm in D.C. last week for Republicans failing to think their plan through.
Of all of which leads us to the fourth rationale.
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on Friday said an open letter he signed with 46 other GOP Senators should not have been directed to Iran's ruling regime."I suppose the only regret is who it's addressed to," Johnson said during a Friday breakfast with Bloomberg staff. "But the content of the letter, the fact that it was an open letter, none whatsoever."
Hmm. So, the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee still likes the letter intended to sabotage American foreign policy, but his new excuse is that it was sent to the wrong people. Republicans shouldn't have "addressed" it to Iranian leaders.
Of course, if the point of the GOP letter was to push Iranians away from the international nuclear talks, and encourage Iranian officials not to trust the United States or our allies, it's not altogether clear who, exactly, Johnson and his cohorts would have addressed the missive to.
Johnson added today that the still-unresolved agreement "rises to the level of a treaty" and the "treaty should come to Congress for an up-or-down vote."
It's worth emphasizing that the deal -- if there's a deal -- is not a treaty. If it were, an "up-or-down vote" wouldn't be sufficient, since the Constitution requires a two-thirds majority on all Senate ratification votes. To borrow a phrase, Johnson "may not fully understand our constitutional system."
It's always 1938
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) turned to a familiar comparison to condemn international nuclear talks yesterday. "I believe we are hearing echoes of history," the senator said. "I believe we are at a moment like Munich in 1938."
Of course he does.
Right-wing critics of the talks have been talking like this for months, though conservatives seem to be pushing the thesis with increased vigor now that an agreement appears more likely. Last week, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's controversial speech to Congress, Mike Huckabee even celebrated the Israeli leader as "a Churchill in a world of Chamberlains."
I'm reminded of a Peter Beinart piece from a while back.
Over the past quarter-century, there's hardly an American or Israeli leader the Kristol-Netanyahu crowd hasn't compared to Chamberlain. In 1985, Newt Gingrich called Reagan's first meeting with Mikhail Gorbachev "the most dangerous summit for the West since Adolf Hitler met with Neville Chamberlain in 1938 in Munich." When Reagan signed the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, hawks took out newspaper ads declaring that "Appeasement is as unwise in 1988 as in 1938."Then, when Israel moved to thaw its own cold war with the Palestine Liberation Organization, Yitzhak Rabin assumed the Chamberlain role.... Then it was Bill Clinton. "The word that best describes Clinton administration [foreign] policy is appeasement," explained Robert Kagan and Kristol in 1999. Then, of course, it was the opponents of war with Iraq. "The establishment fights most bitterly and dishonestly when it feels cornered and thinks it's about to lose. Churchill was attacked more viciously in 1938 and 1939 than earlier in the decade," wrote Kristol in a 2002 editorial, "The Axis of Appeasement."
Simon Maloy had more along these lines today, taking a closer look at the right's "ridiculous Neville Chamberlain obsession" and "all the times conservatives accused Barack Obama of appeasing the world's many Hitlers." It's not a short list.
With this in mind, the latest nonsense from Cruz and Huckabee isn't just wrong and offensive; it's lazy.
Friday's Campaign Round-Up, 3.13.15
Today's installment of campaign-related news items that won't necessarily generate a post of their own, but may be of interest to political observers:
* Gov. Scott Walker (R) yesterday expressed delight that President Obama criticized his decision to sign "right-to-work" legislation in Wisconsin this week. "Well, it suggests maybe we're the front-runner," told a far-right website.
* Confirming suspicions, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is using footage from his recent congressional address in a new campaign ad. Netanyahu had previously said the appearance was not related to his re-election effort. Israeli elections are next week.
* We learned this week that one of Sen. Lindsey Graham's (R-S.C.) longtime aides was the editor-in-chief of a neo-Confederate magazine. The adviser, Richard Quinn, says he no longer holds his previous beliefs.
* In the latest Gallup poll, released this week, Hillary Clinton enjoys the highest favorability ratings of any likely presidential candidate in either party.
* Appearing on msnbc yesterday, former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley (D) joked about his standing in recent polls. "Am I really up to 11 percent?" he said. "Who did this poll? Was this my mom?"
* In Connecticut, the latest Quinnipiac poll shows Scott Walker and Jeb Bush tied among Republican voters in the state, each generating 18% support. Rand Paul is third with 12%, followed by Chris Christie at 11%.
Loretta Lynch's A.G. nomination goes down to the wire
As of this morning, Loretta Lynch was nominated to serve as U.S. Attorney General 125 days ago. By some measures, the federal prosecutor, the first African-American woman ever to be nominated to the post, has waited longer than any previous Attorney General, for reasons Senate Republicans have struggled to explain.
What's more, it's been more than two weeks since Lynch cleared the Judiciary Committee, a move that ordinarily prompts the Senate leadership to schedule a confirmation vote on the floor soon after. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), however, delayed the vote for no reason, and still hasn't said exactly when the vote will be, other than a vow to bring the nomination to the floor "next week."
Will she prevail or not? At this point, the votes are probably in place -- there are 46 Senate Democrats and four Senate Republicans who support her (Susan Collins, Lindsey Graham, Jeff Flake, and Orrin Hatch). That's 50, with Vice President Biden breaking the tie.
Roll Call's David Hawkings noted this week that this will very likely be the closest-ever vote for an A.G. nominee.
As the top federal prosecutor in Brooklyn, Lynch has earned just the sort of tough but fair reputation that's customarily made for bipartisan smooth sailing in the Senate. But at least three-quarters of Republicans are going to oppose her anyway, mostly because of a single position she's taken as the nominee: Obama was on solid legal ground in deferring deportations of as many as 5 million undocumented immigrants.For essentially the first two centuries under our Constitution, senators afforded the president free rein to stock his Cabinet as he chose, except in the most extraordinary circumstances.... It would not have been newsworthy at all -- let alone a rationale for disqualification -- for an attorney general nominee to take the same position as the president who nominated her in a balance of powers battle with Congress. (In fact, it would have been much more problematic for a nominee to openly break with the president in such a dispute.)
It's almost as if Senate Republicans believe if they defeat Lynch, Obama will nominate an A.G. who opposes the White House's immigration policy. (He won't.) But as Hawkings added, "The single biggest reason Republicans oppose Lynch is that she disagrees with them on a single matter of public policy."
The Senate simply isn't supposed to work this way. Indeed, it's never worked this way before, and it arguably can't effectively work this way now.
GOP generates the wrong kind of global attention
In late 2010, President Obama and much of the foreign-policy establishment around the world eagerly waited for the U.S. Senate to ratify the New START nuclear treaty. The agreement, reached earlier in the year after lengthy negotiations with Russia, was championed by Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) and Bush administration veterans, but Senate Republicans were prepared to kill it.
At the time, Pierre Vimont, the then-French ambassador to the United States, noted that he and other diplomats warned European officials that Congress might very well reject the treaty. "People ask us, 'Have you been drinking?'" Vimont said.
It seemed implausible to believe American officials would deliberately derail a treaty that advances America's interests, and eventually, the Senate did ratify the proposal (though most Republicans voted against it). But what I remember from the debate is the degree to which the world watched with astonishment -- observers around the globe found it hard to believe just how radical congressional Republicans had become.
More than four years later, 47 Senate Republicans reached out to Iran, urging officials in Tehran not to reach an agreement with the United States, all in the hopes of sabotaging American foreign policy. And once again, much of the world seems aghast -- including the officials Republicans hoped to push away from the negotiating table.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's supreme leader, said the letter warning that any nuclear deal could be scrapped by a new president was "a sign of a decline in political ethics and the destruction of the American establishment from within." [...]"All countries, according to the international norms, remain faithful to their commitments even after their governments change, but the American senators are officially announcing that at the end of the term of their current government, their commitments will be considered null and void," Ayatollah Khamenei wrote.
In case it's not obvious, Iran's highest leader has an incentive to make the United States look bad, so his criticisms should be taken with a grain of salt. Khamenei has plenty of domestic political reasons to tell Iranians that the American establishment is, as he put it, "disintegrating."
But it's not just the Iranians who are unimpressed with the radical Republican stunt.
Paul Ryan 'quietly' keeps a high profile
In late 2013 and early 2014, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) invested a fair amount of time and energy talking about poverty and visiting low-income communities. We know this to be true, of course, because the congressman made a point of letting people know.
In November 2013, for example, the Washington Post ran a big, front-page article about the far-right lawmaker's interest in "fighting poverty." The piece said Ryan was "quietly visiting inner-city neighborhoods." A month later, BuzzFeed ran a similar, lengthy piece on the subject, noting that the congressman "has spent the past year quietly touring impoverished communities across the country."
There was a certain awkwardness to the pitch. For example, Ryan has taken a leading role in trying to gut the nation's safety net at the federal level, demanding deep cuts to social programs that benefit struggling families, making it tough to see him as an anti-poverty crusader.
But the fact that both articles used the word "quietly" also stood out -- if the congressman was really interested in being "quiet" about his visits to struggling areas, he probably wouldn't be eager to let the Washington Post and BuzzFeed know about his trips.
All of which led to this amusing claim in a Yahoo News piece the other day.
Ryan's critics have complained that these expeditions were part of a politically calculated vanity project designed to soften the GOP's image and set the congressman -- who was the GOP's vice presidential nominee in 2012 -- up for a bid for higher office.But on March 17, Ryan will issue a rejoinder to that accusation in the form of a documentary film on the people he met during his travels to impoverished communities.
I'm not sure how well the second sentence follows the first. To prove his efforts aren't a vanity project, Paul Ryan is releasing a movie to promote his efforts?

Flute Songs
What do each of the flute songs do?
Holy hell are my new boxers made of wool? Cause my weasels getting heat stroke.
The flute songs provide an AoE buff (or debuff) which differs between each tune played...
Here are the ones I know: (NOTE: Names might be totally wrong)
Irratius - Causes any Allies / Enemies in effect to become confused
Angere - Allies within effect have "ATK +100% / DEF -50%"
Valere - Allies within effect have "ATK -50% / DEF +100%"
Prudentiae - Allies / Enemies within effect suffer from Silence. Prevents magic spells from striking within area of effect, removes non-conditional debuffs and/or delay-damage magic (Astroluminous, Hydrain). DOES NOT block special attacks!
Song of Prayer (name?) - Allies within effect have "All Parameters +100%" (However, Capell must spend 100 MP per second to maintain the effect)
Placare (used in town) - Earns small amounts of Fol at irregular times whilst playing.
Hypnoticus - Enemies in range may suffer from Sleep condition.
Alucinati (non-continuous) - Creates a clone-image of Capell which explodes after a short time. Enemies which detect the clone-image will act predictably, attacking it and setting off the explosion.
Obduratus - Targeted enemy may suffer from Charmed condition
Obstreporus - No effect whatsoever. As an aside, it can be used to get an enemy's attention (if they don't suffer from Unhearing condition) but it provides no benefits.
NOTE: Capell must continuously play the song to apply the effect. (Except for Alucinati) If Capell is struck by an attack his song is interrupted (avoid this with the enchantment "No Stun / DEF -50%" or "Damage Zero / No Attacking")
Ah thanks a bunch.

Whether you are a businessman, a budding entrepreneur, a commerce student, an investor or plain right curious, a creditors' voluntary liquidation is something that you have to know about when it comes to the field and industry of businesses and entrepreneurial ventures.
As we all know, an entity comes to its demise when it can no longer fulfill its obligations as they mature. To avoid it one has to know how insolvency creeps in and what its warnings signs are. AT the same time, it also has to know what recovery options it has in order to stop or at least lessen the negative effects it has on the company.
A Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation is one of the most common solutions to formally and legally wind down operations. Below are five things about it that you need to know about.
- 1. It is voluntary as the name suggests.
Unlike a winding up petition, this one is fully voluntary with majority of the directors voting for it. It is important to take note however that insolvency has to be proven beyond reasonable doubt. This will then call for the members to again vote for a licensed insolvency practitioner or liquidator to attend to the procedures.
- 2. It calls for the sale of all corporate owned assets.
All assets owned by the entity shall be sold with its proceeds to be paid out to stakeholders. Owners and directors will not be held personally accountable unless proven to be at intentional fault.
- 3. It necessitates prioritization of creditors.
The proceeds from the sale of the corporate assets shall be distributed in proportion to the interests of the stakeholders. Priority is first and foremost given to the creditors. Any excess should there be are to be given to shareholders.
- 4. It cancels contracts regarding future services.
Any contracts with other businesses regarding future services would be made unenforceable given the company's inability to fulfill them. This is why insolvency has to be validated because no business should use a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation in order to avoid and escape from their debts.
- 5. It will cease operations.
Essentially, once a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation has been set in motion, it will formally wind down operations, cease trade and close down the company. It may be a hard pick but then again doing so would be much bearable compared to when a Winding Up Petition in Court would force one to liquidate.

Hostel Azores Ponta Delgada is located on the island of S. Miguel, only a few minutes' walk from the town centre.
The hostel offers a number of facilities including a self-catering kitchen, lounge area, games room, and Internet access. In addition, you can relax while enjoying the view in an outside garden. After a great night's sleep and a refreshing power shower, nothing gets you off to a better start of a day than a free tasty breakfast.
The island offers plenty to do. At the marina, you can find out about various sports and leisure activities to occupy your valuable time such as windsurfing, scuba-diving and fishing. You can go hiking around Lagoa de Fogo, Furnas Lake and Sete Cidades lakes, visit hot springs and the botanical garden in Furnas. Then tour around the island, visit the lagoons and travel through the volcanic lands.
What travellers think
The staff is extraordinarily friendly and helps with every question. The breakfast ist poor, you can book some further breakfast variations but this costs more and there is no fruit offered. It would be great if there would be some fruit offered for breakfast. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean, the furnishing is a bit old. The old building is great.
Mon 08 Dec 2014
Good youth hostel with an attractive price, it's not really close to the main attractions and the port but the way to go is fast and straight. The breakfast proposed is only bread and cornflakes and extras aren't so good.

Sand, sand, sand!
Hi everyone,
I just finished filling a 4x4, 12" bed about 10" deep with the mix recommended in the first book, and now I'm having serious doubts about how appropriate this mix is for my zone and if I even did it correctly. I *did* adjust the amount of peat moss vs. compost, but it's particularly the sand I'm wondering about. I used:
3cu ft peat moss
6 cu ft compost
4 cu ft vermiculute
3 cu ft sand (play sand - 6, .5cf bags)
Plus the lime and fertilizers recommended.
After mixing the soil and loading it into the bed, it seems SO sandy. When I soaked the bed down, the sand was visible in spots on the surface where it was collecting together.
Is this right? I am totally new to gardening outside. I double-checked the amount of sand and I don't think it was incorrect, but who knows?
Is the amount of sand going to be a problem in our hot, hot dry summers? I'm wondering if the bed will actually drain *too* fast?
Would love any input! Thanks!
I'm not sure what zone you are in, so it's kinda hard to answer this question. I do know that the new book does a 1:1:1 ratio of vermiculite, peat moss, and compost which is about what you would have if you didn't add the sand. I really doubt the sand is going to cause too much of a problem, but if you are really concerned I guess you could try adding some more compost to the bin, or even more peat moss or vermiculite to help with the water retention. However, remember that people have been gardening for thousands of years in the soil that they happen to have, and have had success, so I really wouldn't worry about it.
Don't worry, you don't have too much sand. You just see the sand because of the color difference. Also the market bought compost has perhaps a lot of sand in it. The compost i bought from home depot last month was half sand and rest looked like wood chips. But don't worry. You have a mix which is absolutely well draining mix. Plenty of space and fluff for air. I suppose you will use it to grow using soluble fertilizers? The peat, vermiculite and compost will help retain the moisture and still drain the excess water well. It is perfect.

Local Students Present Park Improvement to Councilmembers
Councilmembers Flowers and Sims (pictured left) congratulated the students for their hard work and dedication and encouraged them to continue to seek ways to improve the community.
Councilmember Jay Flowers and Councilmember Don Sims played host to a group of promising young minds Tuesday morning in the City Council Chambers. Fifth grade students from Thomasville City Schools' Enriching Gifted and Talented Students program presented their ideas on how to improve MacIntyre Park and create a greater amenity for the community.
More information.
City Council Recognizes March Honorary Councilmember
During the final City Council meeting of the month, Wallace Goodman (left) was recognized by Councilmember Jay Flowers (right) for his service to the community as the honorary councilmember for the month of March.
"Thomasville is a progressive town because of the dedicated leadership of current and past City Council members and because of the professional management and high expectations from the office of City Manager Steve Sykes," Goodman said. "Steve and the City employees have very high expectations for Thomasville and the high quality services they provide through the leadership of the City Council."
"It was my pleasure to serve as the honorary council member for the month of March," he added
Wallace, a long-time Thomasville resident, serves as the Director of Pebble Hill Plantation and as the CEO of the Pebble Hill Foundation.
At various times each year, councilmembers select a citizen to be the honorary councilmember. As an honorary councilmember, citizens serve for a period of one month, during which time they participate in council meetings and council-related committee meetings, in order to give them a first-hand account of what it takes to keep Thomasville running smoothly.
