Do Want To Get Rid Of Vaginal Odor Fast And For Sure? 4 Bacterial Vaginosis Natural Cures For Quick Relief
Bacterial vaginosis is one ailment which women dread of. Its treatment can be a frustrating experience. The most embarrassing part of the infection is a foul smelling vaginal odor accompanied by whitish grey discharge. These specific symptoms of vaginosis respond very well to bacterial vaginosis natural cures rather than conventional medicines.
Has your smelly vagina been bothering you? Have the antibiotics prescribed to get rid of your fishy smelling vaginal odor failed to produce any results? What other methods of bv cure can you resort to?
One of the best ways that I have found in order to get rid of a fishy vaginal odor is by using plain yogurt with a little bit of lavender oil applied to a tampon. You are going to have to use one to two drops of oil for each one of the applications. The exact amount of yogurt that is used is not as important, but at least a teaspoonful will dilute the oil enough so you do not run a risk of being irritated by it.
Many women are faced with the problem of how to eliminate vaginal odor-indeed over 70% of women will have this condition at some point during their lives. For many, it is a recurring issue which just will not go away.
It is true that women do not smell rose down there. It is also true that they do not smell rotten fish either. If you have a strong fishy and very bad vaginal odor, then it is time you checked out for possible infections and other things which can be potential dangers to your reproductive health.
It's in our human nature to despise a foul smell and love the pleasant scents. Basically, our noses are used to determine only two things - good smell and bad smell. Oftentimes, there are subcategories in each of those two kinds of smell. When we talk about vaginal odor, one should take note that there's this normal odor of vagina and there's something else. The latter can be a fishy smell from the vagina and may be accompanied by pain, irritation and some discharge.
It is often said that a foul smell is an indication of something bad or rotten. Even burning plastic can give off a very unpleasant odor, not to mention smoke that's harmful to the health of both the individual and the environment. Sometimes, the scent is an indication of an infection such as in the case of vagina fishy smell. If you have a bad odor from your vaginal area, this is an indication that you could have bacterial vaginosis or a similar infection.
It really is sufficient to clean the vagina with plain water twice each day. f) Drink 2-3 liters of water to rule out the possibility of the infection being transmitted by way of the urinary tract. If vaginal odor during pregnancy persists in spite of the use of these natural cures for far more than a couple of weeks please do consult a doctor. Vagina odor is an really embarrassing and uncomfortable situation for women. It creates a feeling on uncleanliness and shatters the confide...
Vaginal odor during pregnancy is a common issue which women face. This happens due to an increase in the secretion of fluids and mucus from the cervix. As a result excess moisture gets accumulated in the vaginal area.
If you would like to know how to eliminate bad vaginal odor naturally, there are a few simple steps which you can take which should get you back on the road to freshness. Ironically, some of the things we do everyday to seemingly help the problem could actually be making matters worse.
Sex tips can help men improve their sexual encounters. When considering such tips, remember that the condition of the bedroom has an impact on sex.
Uncontrolled penis odor can result in a major date disaster. Men want to make sure they take appropriate steps to eliminate unwanted penis odor before an outing with a potential partner.
Pornography is not everyone's cup of tea, but many couples who view it together find the experience can lead to better sex.
The search for perfect Valentine's Day gifts is on. This year, why not invest in presents that both partners can enjoy together? The following list of sex toys will help guide men and their partners to greater pleasure.
While some causes of penis bumps require treatment, others are natural and harmless. Men can learn about three types of bumps that may affect the penis but are not causes for concern here.
It's hard to fully enjoy sex when one has a numb penis. Restoring lost sensitivity (or preventing it from occurring) enables a man to enjoy sexual pleasure to the fullest.
An itchy penis is a common problem for many men, but it may present a special problem for those with a latex allergy, as it may make using condoms an issue.
Exercise is beneficial to several areas of one's life, including sex. Learn the best exercises for better sex.
One of the simplest ways to reduce the risk of suffering from bacterial vaginosis or to prevent bacterial vaginosis is to adopt safe sexual health habits. Limiting the number of sexual partners is recommended to reduce the risk of suffering from bacterial vaginosis. This is because incidence of vaginosis is greater in women who are sexually active and have multiple partners.
Vaginal itching, irritation and a burning sensation in and around the vaginal area are normally symptoms of Vaginitis. Women suffering from yeast infection too are bound to experience these symptoms. However these are characteristic symptoms of bacterial vaginosis.
There is no one single cure for vaginal odor which is caused due to bacterial vaginosis. A combination of simple home remedies and preventive measures are both required to eliminate the vagina smell. Vaginosis is a common bacterial infection women suffer from.
How to get rid of vaginal odor fast once and for all? This is an embarrassing condition which is very awkward to discuss with others.
I used to suffer from fishy vaginal smell almost all the time. I used to make me feel unclean. Despite having bath twice a day and washing my vaginal area thoroughly the smell persisted.
Are you trying to figure out how to get rid of a smelly vagina? Fishy vaginal smell is something which is not easy to put up with. The odor stays with you wherever you go and whatever you do. It makes you self conscious and embarrassed to discuss the issue even with your own partner.
I had a recurring problem which had bothered me for almost a year-bad vaginal odor. No matter how much I cleaned, bathed and washed, my vaginal smell was just there all the time. To add to my frustration, my doctors found nothing wrong with me as such to cause the odor. My doctors prescribed pills under the impression that it was vaginal infection which would go away.
Bad vaginal odor is embarrassing to say the least. All of us have a natural vaginal scent which we get used to over a period of time. However when this scent turns unpleasant it is a clear indication of a vaginal infection. What can you do on your own to eliminate this smell once and for all?

LTR - CiloGear 40B Alpine Day Pack - Allnutt
Expand Messages
- Oops... Here is the report:
1 November 2008
September 17-19, 2008 – Three day, two night hike in the Gila
Wilderness, New Mexico. The altitudes ranged from 6000 to 7400 ft (1800
- 2300 m). Temperatures were from 45 to 75 F (7 to 24 C). The weather
included sun and rain. Total distance backpacking was about 25 mi (40 km).
Over the full test period I used the pack for backpacking on five
overnights and as a day pack for about 10 additional days. Non
backpacking use has been as my overnight bag on about 5 airplane or car
The CiloGear 40B pack has been just the right size for all my travels.
For the trip to the Gila Wilderness, I used the reinforced backplane,
not knowing how much water I was going to have to carry. It turned out
that I never had to walk more than 10 mi (16 km) without a water supply,
so using the reinforced suspension was a bit of overkill. However, the
pack was very comfortable with two liters of water and a pack full
camping equipment. I probably overpacked a little for this trip, as I
did not know the countryside and did not know what to expect. Carrying a
little extra weight (pack was 22 lb (10 kg) with water) was all the
easier with the hip belt and reinforced backplane.
I continue to enjoy the ability to snug up the pack into a day pack
sized pack with the side adjustments. Doing so gives me a pack that
rides very close to my center of gravity and which is excellent for
bushwacking. The cloth of the pack is very sturdy and has not been
damaged by Texas cedar branches as I have frequently gone cross country
in rough country.
I only used the pack with the reinforcement on a plane one time. The
large aluminum stay made it through the security that time, but I did
have the pack taken apart one time to make sure it was OK. On the other
trips, I left the backplane and aluminum stay at home. Nothing was ever
taken apart in this configuration.
I remain very impressed with the wide ranging adjustments that can be
made with the pack. For the trip to the Gila, I used the topper and it
worked out very well, staying balanced on the top of the pack. As I have
said before, this is the equivalent of a dozen different packs in my
closet, all depending on what options I strap on and use.
Things I really liked:
This pack is the most adaptable pack I have ever used.
The materials are robust and well put together.
What I missed:
Despite the strap on water bottle sack, I really missed a pair of
elastic topped pockets on each side to slide a water bottle into.

Thanks for the edit. I think I found the error in my code that had
changed the font size. I repaired it so that the size does not change.
See you round the trail!

Rite Aid Reports First Quarter Results
Thursday June 19th, 2014 - 11:23AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Rite Aid Corporation has reported operating results for its fiscal first quarter ended May 31, 2014. Revenues for the quarter were $6.5 billion versus revenues of $6.3 billion in the prior year's first quarter.
Revenues increased 2.7% primarily as a result of an increase in pharmacy same store sales. Same store sales for the quarter increased 3.1% over the prior year. Front-end same store sales were flat compared to the prior-year period while pharmacy same store sales increased 4.6%. Prescription sales accounted for 68.4% of total drug store sales.
Net income was $41.4 million compared to last year's first quarter net income of $89.7 million. The decline in net income resulted primarily from a decrease in adjusted EBITDA and higher income tax expense, partially offset by lower interest expense and a lower LIFO charge. Adjusted EBITDA was $282.6 million or 4.4% of revenues for the first quarter compared to $344.8 million or 5.5% of revenues for the like period last year. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was driven by a reduction in pharmacy gross profit due to lower reimbursement rates that were not offset with reductions in generic costs, as well as higher salary and payroll related expenses, noted Rite Aid.
"In the first quarter, we delivered a strong store operating performance, highlighted by increases in same-store sales and same-store prescription count," said Rite Aid chairman and CEO John Standley. "As we work through managing the higher-than-expected drug costs and reimbursement rate pressure that affected our financial results for the quarter, we remain focused on executing our strategy to expand our health care offering and transform Rite Aid into a growing retail health care company."
In the first quarter, the company relocated three stores, remodeled 105 stores and expanded one store, bringing the total number of wellness stores chain wide to 1,325. The company also acquired one store and closed seven stores, resulting in a total store count of 4,581 at the end of the first quarter.

Gehry's Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris: The Critics Respond
The people behind Frank Gehry's Fondation Louis Vuitton (FLV) in Paris, which is set to officially open on the 27th October 2014, recently invited a band of architecture critics to take a look around and pen their thoughts. Gehry's bold approach to architectural form, most evident in buildings like the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in LA, matches the foundation's aim to "promote and support contemporary and artistic creation" in France. According to their website, they in particular embody "a passion for artistic freedom." How, then, has the enormous sailed structure, challenged by local opposition from the outset, settled into its Parisian parkland surroundings?
See what The Guardian's Oliver Wainwright, The Observer's Rowan Moore, Vanity Fair's Paul Goldberger, The LA Times' Christopher Hawthorne, as well as the Architectural Digests' Mayer Rus, had to say about Gehry's latest completed building after the break.

Preserving a Place for Protest in Paris
Following a three-year redesign, the Place de la République in Paris reopened this year, welcoming back the regular organized protests that make it one of the most important public spaces in Paris. For the designers of the space, TVK agency, it was important not to infringe on what many Parisians consider their inalienable right to protest – however a question remained over how the square could be more amenable to other uses at the same time. In this article, originally published by Metropolis Magazine as "Place for Protest," Veronique Vienne explores how TVK agency allowed Parisians to have their cake and let them eat it too.
In Paris, rituals of political discontent are traditionally celebrated on Place de la République. It is a favorite kick-off point for the countless marches that define democracy in the French capital. But before taking to the street in a slow-moving procession, crowds block traffic all around the esplanade, creating a gridlock that can cripple the city from Sacré Coeur to the Opéra. Meanwhile, citizens get to unfurl banners and shout slogans. It's legal, good, clean fun.
Well, no more.
Marc Mimram Reveals Design for New TGV Station in Montpellier
Paris-based architecture and engineering firm Marc Mimram has been appointed to design a new TGV station in Montpellier, France. To be completed in late 2017, the station is intended to serve up to 3.5 million passengers a year by 2030, connecting with the existing Perpignan to Barcelona line, ultimately reducing the travel time between Paris and Barcelona.
The station's striking roof structure is composed of five 8 metre wide pleated shells, made from a fibre reinforced, ultra high performance concrete (UHPC). The high performance concrete combined with the pleated form allows the shells to be just 5-6 centimetres thick, with glass panes embedded directly into the concrete during casting.

Living in a home for sale
What do families do on a day to day basis when their home is for sale and showings could happen at any time? I've seen plenty of homes picture-perfect staged for open houses and photos, but can/do families really live that way the entire time the house is on the market?
I suspect this is difficult if not impossible for busy families with young children. How much 'imperfection' is generally tolerable for a showing? I personally look past the belongings and paint colors and only really 'see' the structure, but I know a lot of people get hung up on the minutiae.
What's your daily routine before leaving home? Do you hide the toys/toothbrushes/dishes/dog bowls, load up the potpurri, freshen the flowers, scrub the sink/tub, sweep the floors, dust the ceilings, alphabetize the towels, and on and on?
When we sold our house, it was ready for a showing every time we left. It was a PITA, but most of our showings came with little or no notice.
In general, we put everything away that we didn't want people to see. We wiped down the counters and made sure the sinks were clean. We did not sweep and dust daily, but you might need to sweep if you have pets. We made the beds nicely. we put any stinky garbage directly in the outside bin. We made sure the lawn was mowed regularly (twice a week) and made sure to water the flowers/landscape regularly so it stayed looking nice. Basically, we kept it looking as close to the pictures as possible.
I have 4 kids (now grown) and when I was selling a home I would do all of the housework in the evening when they were in bed. Then in the mornings all I had to do was breakfast dishes and make beds, wipe down the bathrooms, empty garbage cans and the house was ready to show.
We always had a playroom and toys weren't allowed out of the playroom. If I had notice during the day that there was a showing scheduled, then I'd quickly pick up the playroom and run through the house with a basket to throw any stray shoe or sock or bookbag into it. I'd put the kids and the laundry basket in the car and the house was good to go.
I'd dust probably every other day and vacuum every other day. Sweep wood floors daily, wipe down kitchen and baths daily. I knew the weekends were the busiest time so Thursday nights I'd wash floors and the remainder of the week I'd just spot clean the floors.
If you have to live in your house while showing, then I think making the effort to keep it as neat and clean and decluttered as possible really shows well. But it doesn't have to be perfect. Clutter is your enemy and an unkempt home looks bad. But if you have a chair cushion that's askew or you accidentally leave your shoes by the back door etc. I don't think that would kill a sale. I was a maniac about making sure things were as perfect as possible and still remember the time I left the house in a hurry without making my bed and got a call from the realtor that she wanted to show the house while I was out. I said no...I didn't make the bed!! She said these people really want to see the home, your home is immaculate, one unmade bed isn't going to stop them from buying the home. I reluctantly agreed. That young couple bought my home.
I complete agree with cordovamom. I do the same things. We did ask they give us a minimum of 2 hours notice (I have a friend selling that requires 24 hrs notice) and that they have to confirm with me that I received the message for the showing, before they come by.
I use laundry baskets and throw everything that is on counters, floor etc, into them, if I don't have time to put stuff away. Sometimes even dirty laundry and dishes come into the van. Minimum: Beds are made, floors vacuumed, tile cleaned, wood polished, most flat surfaces cleared, all lights on.
You learn to adapt when you are living in a home that is for sale.
I've done it multiple times with three kids and six animals in the house. It takes some planning but if you stay on top of things and get EVERYONE in the house to help it can be done successfully.
Interestingly enough, keeping our last home ready for sale made me a neater and more organized person as I came to realize how much easier it is to keep order in general if you pick up and clean as you go, instead of allowing things to accumulate.
It also cured me of the cluttered fridge door syndrome..LOL!
When my sister was selling her house she just made sure that the place was immaculately, gleamingly CLEAN ... seeing a kid's room with toys out, or laundry waiting to be done in the basement is not an issue for most buyers.
I would be more turned off by indications of poor maintenance, like leaking faucets, scummy tubs, and grungy under cabinets.
Since you have to pack everything up anyway to move, pack up extra clutter, kitchen items you don't use often, and toys now. That will make it easier to keep the house neat. People look in cabinets and closets so having the extra there removed will make them look larger.
I really don't think someone will not buy your house if there are toothbrushes out. And be careful with potpourri and scents. Lots of people don't like them and will think you are just trying to cover something up.
I agree with what everyone else said.
My family is really messy. My biggest help was to pack up everything 'extra' and put it in storage. For instance, I packed up all of the plates, cups, etc., so that basically we had enough for everyone to have one with only a couple of extras. I had to wash dishes more often, but at least the kids weren't able to drag out every cup and plate in the house. I did the same with towels and wash clothes. We had the pretty ones for staging and then the ones we actually used. Everything else went into storage. Clothes were whittled down to just a 3-5 days worth. I did a load of laundry every day and put it right away. Any clothes or towels that were used went straight to the washer. I packed away the majority of the toys. I lets the kids keep out a few favorite items and the rest got packed.
Good luck! I hope you get a quick sale.
Before we listed we rented a storage unit and cleared out everything that was not essential. Then we bought some Tupperware for things that were essential that we could hide in closets easily for showings. I even got some for the bathrooms to hide all the toothbrushes, etc.
We did not remove the cat litter though. I couldn't think of a clever way to hide it. Just made sure it was always clean.
We are working through this process right now. We rented a storage unit and it is about 75% full. Most of the obvious overflow is gone-some to the storage unit and some to charity. We will keep working on packing non-essentials even after we list. The longer it goes on, the more goes to charity instead of the storage unit. lol. I am sure some of the things I have already packed will be sent to charity instead of putting it in the new home, too.
The litter box is always a concern so when our house was for sale I bought one of those "hooded" litter boxes. We had a closet with bypass doors in our laundry room so I put down newspaper and put the box in there and left the door open just enough for the cats to go in and out. At least it was out of plain sight.
I just bought a house last year. There was nothing I hated more than when people had a ton of personal effects. i.e. pictures of family everywhere, lots of knick-knacks, lots of decorations and paintings, etc. It was a turn off.
Paint colors I didn't care, those are easy to change, and basic furniture, didn't care.
But I can tell you right now if you have a lot of personal effects around, people will be turned off. One house we looked at, they had kids, an iguana, and a cat. They did a good job of everything being reasonable, though. There wasn't a ton of silly stuff everywhere, everything was uncluttered, etc.
Another house we looked at had all kinds of personal effects and was full of clutter and knick-knacks. No matter how much I liked the house, I couldn't get over it.
If you make it clear to your children that you expect them to 1. not make messes and 2. when they do make messes to clean up after themselves, things will be a lot easier. Any child over 2 should be able to clean up after themselves to some degree.
I know when I am doing spring cleaning and have everything but the furniture packed away how much more spacious and calming the rooms are. I always think I'll get rid of the clutter to the senses but it builds back up again. If you are planning on moving out eventually, and you don't 'need' items to live comfortably, packing it and getting it out of there not only helps the house to show better, it is a jump start on your move. It's also a great time to sort through what you really want to move. It makes keeping your house cleaned up a lot easier too.
Really, get down to the barest of essentials and then a bit further. Clutter is a killer for house sales.
I agree with calliope. Get rid of the clutter and keep everything clean. For me, that meant getting a storage unit and boxing up a lot of clutter. I have the staged items stored in baskets (fluffy, brand new towels for bathrooms for example) ready to replace the ones used daily. Same goes for kitchen. I dust every other day, because it needs to be, as well as vacuum. Once I got rid of the majority of the clutter, I found it has been easier keeping things tidy. It's not easy living in your house and trying to sell it.
Our house is for sale currently and we (our two daughters 7 & 8) are still living in it while it is for sale. One thing I found to be a lifesaver was to pack as much as I could and I moved it out already. This way there are less items that could be pulled out at one time. I also give the kids certain things they have to do in the morning, all clothes where they are supposed to be and beds made. Luckily our eight year old is a bit OCD so she organizes everything for me. I make sure the dishes are all done and everything is picked up. We had a showing today where I had 2 hours notice and it figured it was the one day that I hadn't done anything so I came back home and with some help from family straightened up and took the dog. Our biggest problem has been keeping handprints off the freshly painted walls!!
Showing by appointment only with at least 1-2 hours notice.
I have seen more stuff in odd places during showings.
Folks cram dirty dishes in the DW (not arranged on the racks, just piled up), throw stuff in the oven, throw stuff in closets, etc.
These are all places a buyer is likely to take at least a look in if they are serious.
I have sold while living with pets and kids.
You just have to keep everything neat.
I have seen sellers panic over the kids craft project on the kitchen table.
The table is not staying, and neither will the craft mess.

The campaign, with the tagline "Stay Off the Tracks, It's Not Worth Your Life," features a series of messages highlighting the dangers of activities such as trying to retrieve items dropped onto the tracks, standing too close to the edge of a platform, or trespassing along the railroad right of way.
"Safety has always been and will always be our No. 1 priority, in every facet of our operations," said CTA President Forrest Claypool. "We created the campaign as an important reminder to our customers, and we believe it will help further promote safe behavior on our rail system."
Customers who enter CTA tracks, known as the rail right of way, face not only the danger of oncoming trains, but also that of the third rail, which carries 600 volts of electricity used to propel trains — a level of electricity that is almost always lethal.
In 2012, CTA received more than 300 reports of customers entering the right of way, ranging from riders jumping off a platform to pick up a dropped mobile phone to trespassers walking on tracks between stations. The vast majority involve people making a conscious decision to go on the tracks, officials said.
This latest campaign complements CTA's existing rail safety information, including signs along the tracks, at every rail station and in every railcar, as well as safety brochures, website information and other materials. "
The new safety campaign's car cards and posters will appear on railcars and at rail stations throughout the CTA system and also be used on digital signs at stations.
The train wreck, which occurred in the early morning of March 24, 2014, when the operator allegedly fell asleep, injured more than 30 people and caused roughly $9 million in damage. The lead railcar had to be cut up to remove it from the escalator.
The vehicle, which was a designed and built by Brookville Equipment Corp., will be the first streetcar in the U.S. that utilizes wireless traction power.
Opened in 1935, Newark Penn Station is listed on both the State and National Registers of Historic Places. The station was originally designed and still operates as an intermodal facility serving pedestrian, taxi, bus and private vehicle traffic generated by the more than 50,000 transit customers who use the station each day.
Part of the problem is an aging fleet, according to officials. Calgary Transit placed a $200-million deal in 2013 to buy 60 new light rail vehicles; however, those vehicles will not be operational until 2016.
The new trains for Hermann-Hesse railway line will be completely emission-free. In times of increasing energy costs and higher level of pollution, the development of this technology is essential.

Four Artists Turn the Norton Into a "Psychedelic Shack"
The Norton's "Altered States" is a relatively small show that traffics in big art. There are just over two dozen works by four contemporary artists, but the scale of the pieces tends to be big and the themes even bigger. One temporary site-specific installation — Jose Alvarez's Vibrating Strands of Energy — is about 13 feet by 56 feet and incorporates a doorway in its center. Another Alvarez piece, We Came From the Stars, consists of four contiguous panels, each 44 inches by 72 inches.
There's a hallucinogenic sheen to Alvarez's imagery, which is often so vibrant that it threatens to dance off the canvas. The same can be said for Fred Tomaselli's big mixed-media collages, which sometimes incorporate the literal trappings of psychedelia — pills, marijuana leaves, magic mushrooms — into forms that resemble gigantic mandalas or massive strands of DNA. And then there's Leo Villareal's trippy ceiling installation of intricately programmed flashing lights, best seen when you're lying on your back.
In terms of ideas, we're talking cosmic here, as in the expanding universe and spirituality and the portals of perception. These three American artists seek not so much to re-create drug-induced experiences as to tap into higher visionary realms. Their visual extravagance is balanced by the presence of Yayoi Kusama, an octogenarian Japanese woman who takes a more austere but no less contemplative approach. Together they make up a quartet whose work delights the eye and stimulates the mind and spirit — not a bad combination at all.

El Niño Triggers Urgent Need, Legal Requirement to Close Fishery to Protect Endangered Sea Turtles From Nets
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Feds' Failure to Enforce Closure of Drift Gillnet Fishery Would Cause Sea Turtle Deaths
Monterey, CA
Contact: Ashley Blacow ( [email protected] 831-643-9220)
Conservation groups called out the National Marine Fisheries Service today for failing to implement the legally-mandated closure of the drift gillnet fishery in Southern California waters to protect endangered loggerhead sea turtles. El Niño conditions — warmer than normal waters — attract endangered loggerhead sea turtles to fishing grounds, where they risk entanglement in nets. When El Niño is occurring or forecasted, the Pacific Loggerhead Conservation Area (California ocean waters east of 120 degrees latitude) is, by law, closed to drift gillnet fishing during June, July, and August. Despite the agency's own predictions of a 70 percent likelihood of El Niño conditions this summer, the agency has failed to notify the public that the fishing prohibition is in effect — in clear violation of federal law, according to a letter sent today by Oceana, the Center for Biological Diversity, and Turtle Island Restoration Network.
"Sea turtles will drown in drift gillnets if the government doesn't act," said Dr. Geoff Shester, California Campaign Director for Oceana. "California's ocean waters are especially important to loggerhead sea turtles in El Niño conditions."
The Pacific Loggerhead Conservation Area was established in 2000 to prevent the drift gillnet fishery from jeopardizing the loggerhead sea turtle's existence. The seasonal closure protects loggerhead sea turtles following warmer waters off California in search of their preferred prey, pelagic red crabs. The agency failed to implement this closure during the 2002–2003 El Niño, prompting litigation resulting in the current prohibition on fishing during observed or predicted El Niño conditions.
"The government's failure to act quickly when conditions trigger the need for protections leaves the loggerhead sea turtle's long-term survival up to chance," said Catherine Kilduff, an attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity. "Gambling with the future of California's sea turtles is deeply irresponsible and unkind—and strongly suggests smart fisheries management can't coexist with wasteful and destructive mile-long drift gillnets."
The Fisheries Service's disregard for its own laws has been an ongoing pattern in this fishery. Most recently, in 2010, the killing of endangered sperm whales by the drift gillnet fishery should have triggered immediate emergency action. But the agency failed to take action for almost three years.
"The government's failure to implement its own rule to protect the Pacific loggerhead turtle from California driftnets, after it uplisted the species from threatened to endangered, adds fuel to the movement to phase out this destructive fishery that kills thousands of whales, dolphins and sea turtles," said Todd Steiner, a biologist and executive director of Turtle Island Restoration Network.
Drift gillnets target swordfish and thresher sharks in ocean waters off California and form dangerous underwater walls that entangle whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions, sea turtles, other species of sharks, and other ecologically and economically important fish. Once trapped in these nets, most animals eventually drown. Between May 2007 and January 2013, the drift gillnet fishery discarded 61 percent of all marine animals it caught. Just last week the federal Pacific Fishery Management Council voted to consider new protections for several endangered species caught as bycatch in this fishery, acknowledging that the fishery needs to be cleaned up.
In today's letter, the conservation groups cite several sources of predicted and confirmed El Niño conditions that unequivocally demonstrate that the Pacific Loggerhead Conservation Area has been triggered. The groups indicate they will consider taking additional action if the Fisheries Service has not implemented the closure by July 8.
Oceana is the largest international advocacy group working solely to protect the world's oceans. Oceana wins policy victories for the oceans using science-based campaigns. Since 2001, we have protected over 1.2 million square miles of ocean and innumerable sea turtles, sharks, dolphins and other sea creatures. More than 600,000 supporters have already joined Oceana. Global in scope, Oceana has offices in North, South and Central America and Europe. To learn more, please visit www.oceana.org.
The Center for Biological Diversity is a national, nonprofit conservation organization with more than 775,000 members and online activists dedicated to the protection of endangered species and wild places.
Turtle Island Restoration Network is an international marine conservation organization headquartered in California whose 150,000+ members and online activists work to protect sea turtles and marine biodiversity in the United States and around the world. www.seaturtles.orgNews Source : El Niño Triggers Urgent Need, Legal Requirement to Close Fishery to Protect Endangered Sea Turtles From Nets

Photos of Nicole Richie and Jessica Alba to Dinner in LA; Jessica With Daughter Honor Warren
Nicole and Jessica Have a Mommy's Night Out

Jessica Alba was casual in plaid yesterday afternoon out in LA with Honor, but she got fancy by the evening for an adults-only dinner. She was seated right next to fellow mom Nicole Richie, and the girls chatted and laughed throughout the meal. Nicole wasn't decked out in her on-trend bubble shorts, but she did show off her post-pregnancy body in a tight miniskirt. She also debuted a shorter haircut, after saying bye to her long locks recently on Twitter.

The fact that JA is friends with Nicole Richie makes me respect her a lot less. Nicole is cute, adorable and dresses amazingly, but the is not a good person. She was raised unbelievably spoiled and has a sense of entitlement bigger than Kanye's. She is disrespectful and conceited., just not a nice girl.

sooo jealous that she's so skinny just a couple weeks after having her baby. oh well at least it gives me hope that after i have my kids i'll be back to my old shape soon enough.

You should attend a workshop taught by Yang Yilun. He's a 7-dan Chinese pro who teaches in the U.S. Usually the workshops run all weekend for about $200-250. He is an excellent teacher and has written several books, including one coming out soon from Slate and Shell [slateandshell.com].
The most impressive thing I've ever seen is at the one workshop I've been to by him. He took all of the students (eighteen), divided us up into pairs (so they can discuss moves with one another), and played us all simultaneously. Then after beating us all (even the pair composed of Keith Arnold, 5 dan and Eagles Song, 4 dan) we cleared off the boards, then he sat down with the first pair, replayed their game from memory, and commented on what they could have done better. Then he replayed the second game from memory... and kept going all the way around the circle.
He's got another workshop coming up in June, I believe. It's in New Jersey. I'm definitely making the trek.

I was introduced to the WARM WAY set up for beehives a few weeks ago. Everything I have seen points to another way raising bees. Iwas wondering how many out there use or have heard of this.
The things I like about it:
- The frame sits on the ground made of 2x10s on a bed of stone dust
- ventilation is accomplished through convection which is regulated by the bees
- the openings for ventilation have regular screen and 1/2" mesh for critters
- stone dust is impregnated with nematodes twice a year for SHB
- the entrance is oriented perpendicular to the frames and away from prevailing winds
- from the entrance the bees place pollen, brood then honey in that order: is this anyone's experience; does this hold true for the rest of the hive?
- The top feeder is enclosed in a feed shim using rapid feeders which is not open to the environment and stays at colony ambient temperature.
- feeder shim is screened off; you are not exposed to bees when checking levels...
- syrup is not open to the air
- you can work the colony from the rear and can keep the colony at (3)-8-framed boxes and remove honey frames as they are capped.
- Other than all this it is pretty much the same.
Here is a video of Billy Davis
