Simmons Denies Pushing Magic Out Of "NBA Countdown," Calls Deadspin Sources "Liars"
Published October 14, 2013
ROTATING CAST: In N.Y., Bob Raissman wrote the perception of "NBA Countdown" is that the show "ain't exactly a model of stability." The reality "may be totally different, but reports of cast members not getting along, or Bill Simmons having control and running a power play, don't do anything for the image of a severely flawed program that should have been blown up two years ago." There is "no one left on the cast who measures up to Johnson in the glitz department" (N.Y. DAILY NEWS, 10/13). In Tampa, Tom Jones wrote Johnson "got a little better last season, but overall, he was the weakest part of the show and is not going to be missed." Meanwhile, Michael Wilbon's role on the show is being "diminished." The "good news is that Wilbon can dedicate more time to his bread-and-butter show, Pardon the Interruption." The "bad news is Wilbon is outstanding on NBA Countdown and will be missed" (TAMPABAY.com, 10/11).

I brewed a batch last night and put it in the fermenting vessel and put the airlock in at around 10:30pm. This morning I checked it at around 10:30am and the airlock has slowly started bubbling but I noticed that I didn't snap on the entire top of it. It's a 3-piece. When I noticed it I snapped it back on. I'm assuming this won't cause me any huge problems as it started bubbling but I just wanted to check on here to be sure. Anything I should worry about?
Nothing to worry about, you'll be totally fine. The escaping CO2 will have kept anything bad from getting in.
You should be fine. It sounds like the airlock was partially on so it's doing its job. You just want the bottom of the bell shaped piece to be submerged in your sanitizing solution. Even if it wasn't for a little bit you're still probably fine. This early in fermentation extra oxygen is not a bad thing and any sanitizing solution that got in there won't hurt anything either.
Primary: Pecan Sandy Porter
Barrel: a ton of brett
Tap 1: Belgian Saison
Tap 2: American Porter
Next in line: Belgian Blonde
in general you shouldn't worry, if fermentation kicked off as usual, chances are that nothing nasty got in your beer. keep in mind that there's professional breweries around the world that still ferment ales in open vessels. rdwhahb
Cool. The bubbling actually started faster than it normally does for me. Usually it takes closer to 24 hours for the airlock to bubble. This time I checked it 12 hours after pitching and it had started.
I think you'll be fine. I brewed 10 gallons the day after Thanksgiving and couldn't find one of my lids so just covered the bucket with a 10g round rubber maid cooler lid. Definitely not airtight. Took gravity readings from both beers last night and tasted each. They were both the same.. delicious.

Clogged Ears 0 0
I am back here to earth clinic to ask for help. About a month ago, I read the information about candida (so much information and somewhat overwhelming). Anyway I have adopted the diet - have cut out all grain and sugar, little carbs and started a few of the supplements recommended. I do feel better and will be continuing with this, but am having a hard time with my ears being blocked and affecting my hearing and balance. Why does it seem like I had less blocked ears on my former poor diet than on improved diet? I think I have a long standing bacterial/viral/fungal/biofilm in my ears? Many years ago I would use the foam earplugs at night and unfortunately, not knowing any better then, I kept reusing the same ones and may have introduced fungus from them being dirty. Can I get to the problem in the inner ear somehow? I am afraid to put anything in my ears until I get some good information on what to do. The inside of my ear canal feels very sticky most of the time.
I have also cut out fruit from my diet. Can you have any at all like berries or apples?
I would also like to pass along something I found on internet search for constipation that has so far made a big difference for the better for me. I use 1 tablespoon slippery elm powder and 1 tablespoon psyllium powder mixed with a cup of water and drink immediately. Then I drink 2 more cups of water after that and try to drink extra water during the day. There is a youtube video for this if I can find it again I can give the link. Hope this can help someone as it is helping me. Good health to all.

02/03/2015HI U AMY, , , , , , , , , I too have candida and in my ears. Probably no one has responded because candida is a long lifetime chore and no one has an instant solution. For the long term ..... follow Ted and Bill's protocol. For the short term I spray my ears with Dr Tichenor's Antiseptic.
It has been used in the South since the Civil War. It is essentially grain alcohol and peppermint, but don't sell it short. All these posts on Jocky itch etc., have to take a back seat to this brew. It cures lots of stuff. Yep, it burns.
I fuss at folks for making demands, but your plea broke my heart. You were not being ignored by the EC folks, but Candida is TOUGH CITY , and there is no easy solution.
Dr Tichenor's is hard to find anymore. It can be found on the internet.
Wish you well ......======ORH========Replied by Amy
02/03/2015thank you ORH. I appreciate your kind reply!
I looked up your recommendation on amazon. Is it the mouthwash antiseptic you are refering to? Do you dilute it to spray in your ears? Wish you well in your battle with candida. I have to wonder if mine is fungal form now. I fear losing my hearing and I am not 60 yet. I will try anything to save it and am determined to win!Replied by Bill

02/03/2015Hi Amy...It is a fact of life that whenever you take any good anti-candida protocol -- initially you will always feel awful(to some degree) before you feel better. These are called Herx reactions and will vary from person to person. This Herx reaction is unavoidable because whenever you kill huge numbers of candida then various poisons are always released directly into the blood. This causes stress on the liver to get rid of them -- hence you fell awful.
Similarly, heavy metal build-up is also involved in candida issues. So when you detox, then you will similarly get heavy metals dumped into the blood -- with consequent further stress on your liver to get rid of it and the result is the same -- you feel awful. There can be many other symptoms arising from both the Herx and detox effects -- too numerous to mention -- but these should all subside and disappear as you successfully get rid of the candida and heavy metals from your body in time.Replied by Bill

02/03/2015Hi Robert Henry...Interesting what you say about Tichenor's Antiseptic -- for sure peppermint is a strong anti-fungal and should work well against the candida.
The remedies I have used for ear problems involve either using drops of Lugol's iodine and water or just using plain store-bought 1% hydrogen peroxide on its own. I simply use a dropper and fill up the ear carefully. Then I would hold it there for a minute or two in my ear. These remedies are pain-free but the HP will tickle like crazy because of the bubbling(proof positive that it is killing the bad stuff in your ears). With both these remedies, I would then empty out my ears and that's it. I do not wash my ears out -- I leave it there to continue its good work.
When I had serious candida issues some while ago, I also had awful wax build-up problems in my ears. Have to admit that this problem must have also had something to do with my systemic candida problems too. The ear wax itself also smelled awful and loads of it. I used the above simple remedies to clear them out for good(including the wax). Now I never have anymore smelly wax build-up in my ears and my ears are clear of fungus.Replied by Robert Henry

[YEA] Cloves for Candida: I have had very good results by adding a lot of ground cloves (spice) to my beverages and foods. While many other things also help candida, (biotic silver, probiotics, etc. ) I haven't seen too much information re cloves, so I thought I would share this. Cloves help to kill any parasite eggs within the body, also making them helpful in this regard as well.

[BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS] Thank you earthclinic for the wonderful website! On here I've found the cure for so many health problems from sore throat to eczema. I am now writing because I've started using VCO three weeks ago and I am loving it. The reason why I wanted to try it is because I think I have mouth candida. For the first two weeks I felt a huge difference in my mouth. It felt cleaner, fresher and that horrible white coat completely disappear!!
A few days ago I started to have an unpleasant taste in my mouth. I can't be sure if it is the metalic taste that some people describe but I can assure you that it is not nice. My tongue is not as pink as it was when I started taking VCO but not as bad as before I started taking it. My question is: Could the bad taste in my mouth be a symptom of candida die off or is it just that the oil worked in the the first two weeks and is not working anymore? Thanks very muchReplied by Francisca

Although, as I had started to take Chlorella and Spirulina at the same time I am not sure which one is causing this! I don't know whether it is the die off effect as I think that I suffer from Candida or whether my liver got overloaded because this is the result when you take or eat something that doesn't agree with your liver! No idea what to do now.... yesterday I didn't take the clorella spirulina powder or the coconut oil but nothing changed.Replied by Jay

Francisca, a few random thoughts here ... Candida is known to accumulate in tissue that contains heavy metal deposits as the heavy metals in some manner seem to protect the Candida. Chlorella is well known to help the body excrete heavy metals by any channel available. I suspect your ingestion of the chlorella started to remove the heavy metals which accounts for the bad taste. With this start to the heavy metal removal, the Candida felt somewhat threatened and in its movement, was exposed (white tongue).

10/05/2012Hi Amanda, The coconut oil was doing a great job of detoxing you, thus why you saw the white tongue and had the bad taste in your mouth. Since coconut oil is anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory you were actually seeing its benefits. If you don't like its effects, you may want to find another way of detoxing since this was an indication that you have a level of toxicity in your body. Hope this info helps, Lisa

I've cooked with raw/organic/un-refined virgin coconut oil a tad, and I use it liberally in my personal care products. However, I gag whenever I try to injest it. Aside from the overall health benefits, I am curious about this oil because I am dealing with candida overgrowth. I am currently taking probiotics and enzymes from a reputable company, using raw ACV in my water daily, and I will start taking garlic (with allicin) capsules soon. Would it be necessary to consume VCO if I'm doing the other things mentioned above for candidiasis? Are there even coconut oil capsules out there?! Thanks in advance!Replied by Randy

I also be taking Organic Virgin Coconut oil at 3 tbsp a day (starting at one tablespoon, and working up to three tablesoons, SLOWLY so as to not upset my digestive system too much). Boron builds bone, and Magnesium is needed by so many bodily functions... VCO is a GREAT thyroid balancing agent. I also add turmeric to my coffee / VCO (coconut oil) concoction every morning.
Aside from that I also take ACV at one ounce (a shot glass full) in a glass of water and a splash of orange juice every morning.
You might want to also look at taking DIM (google it - DIM) and a good natural progesterone cream. Just suggestions per what you said your age and symptons are... Great for balancing out those damned estrogens that can make our bodies get so whacked out.

[YEA] I suffered from candida infections virtually all my adult life. It started after I used antibiotics in my early twenties and became chronic. This changed once I started to use virgin coconut oil for cooking at age 38. What a relief!
I went to a food intolerance check in my local health food shop. The man was all set to diagnose me with candida because then he would be able to sell me lots of medicines (his major source of income) - or so it seemed to me. However, he checked and checked and could not find the candida. He seemed astonished because apparently he found the fungus in everyone. Anyway, I am free of candida for the last 10 years and as an added bonus I also suffer less from herpes outbreaks that I used to have much more frequently.Posted by Colleen (Livingston, NJ) on 06/28/2009
Hi, My Mom and I have been doing some research regarding Candida. We are both convinced that we have this condition since we both fit the symptoms to a tee.
Anyway, my question is, my Mom has been diagnosed with high blood pressure and I've been seeing mixed commentary on the web to whether or not taking the Coconut Oil is good for people who have high blood pressure. Should she continue taking Coconut Oil and will it lower her pressure or make it higher?

11/28/2009[YEA] Hi Colleen...As a help to you here is a website showing much of the research on coconut oil in our diet:
There are many myths that have been spread around about saturated fats and the above web-site should explain all.
I use extra virgin coconut oil internally and externally on body every day, I regard this oil as far more curative even than olive oil because coconut oil is a stable saturated fat, whereas olive oil is a monounsaturated vegetable oil, therefore less stable and much more prone to quickly oxidise.
When I started taking coconut oil, I actually lost weight, my blood pressure went down, my cholesterol levels went down and rebalanced, I had more energy and it was a major factor in getting rid of my Candida.Replied by Maria

San Fernando, Luzon, Philippines
03/17/2010Hi Maria...It took a year to cure my candida. And coconut oil wasn't the only remedy I used. I also used the following.
* Ted's lime/lemon plus Baking soda 3 times a day for alkalizing the body.
* Occasionally Ted's ACV plus BS or BS on its own on in water to provide more energy and to provide more bicarbonates respectively.
* Teaspoon of Blackstrap Molasses in my coffee for minerals.
* Milk thistle to support my liver throughout the cure.
* Kelp tablets for iodine.
* My own homemade decoction of Tinospora cordifolia, Phyllanthus niruri(Chanca piedra or Stonebreaker) and Tumeric, all of which grow in my garden. I took this for liver, kidney and intestinal support throughout the cure. I have recently included Neem leaves in this decoction, because I found a Neem tree in my neighboorhood the other day. Neem, amongst all its other highly beneficial properties, is also highly alkalizing.
I had terrible constipation for about 7 years and usually had a bowel movement once every 4 days. Not good. The coconut oil had an immediate effect on this, my stools became smaller and softer, and eventually I started to have regular BM everyday. I cook everything in VCO now, even use it on my salads. I have banned all other polyunsaturated veg oils from my diet now, since most of these are highly processed chemically and suffer oxidation too quickly which is bad for the body. VCO should be unprocessed, stable and it takes 2-3 years to oxidize this oil.
Just to say that intestinal candida is an insidious problem that can be very hard to eradicate. It is insidious because initially you don't notice its effects, they sort of creep up on you and since I'm over 60 y o I just thought it was age...LOL. But then I stumbled on EC and read about candida. I now regard any yeast, mold or fungus as the prime human enemy now, far more destructive on the human body than viruses, bacteria etc. Fungus's are way more adaptable than any other microbe, they are neither plant nor animal, they can hide for years, they can transfer their nucleus via their hypha by penetrating host cells in order to hide and breed when under attack. The overall effect of this is to continually weaken and wear down the body's immune system, and eventually to provide a wonderful acid environment to allow in a plethora of other viruses and bacteria. This is why it takes so long to get rid of and recover from candida.
Simply put, there is no one magic bullet for candida. I still regard Ted's lemon/lime remedy as the prime remedy that hepled to destroy my candida. But I also have a very high regard for VCO too.Replied by Maria

2. Milk Thistle - is this in a form of tea or powder. How much and how frequently do you use it.
3. Kelp tablets - not sure I need it or do I

03/18/2010Hi Maria...In answer to your questions:
1. How much lime/lemon juice and baking soda is you use?
Use 1/2 tspn Baking soda dissolved in the juice of one lemon or lime. Just slowly add the BS to the lemon/lime juice in 1/2 glass of water until it stops fizzing(Do not worry if you use a little more or less than 1/2 tspn BS). Take this at least 2 times a day -- at least one hour before or two hours after meals. Never take this remedy with meals. Take this 5 times a week with 2 days rest every week.
2. Milk Thistle - is this in a form of tea or powder. How much and how frequently do you use it?
I took Milk Thistle powder in capsule form -- Two 1500 mg capsules per day. Do not buy the tablets, buy the capsule form containing powder. I took this every day in order to help my liver cope with the Herx reaction or fungal die-off.
Kelp tablets - not sure I need it or do I?
Kelp contains minerals, but I took it mainly for the iodine to support my immune system. It is always a good idea to support your immune system as much as possible. You can also use iodine foot-painting (transdermal absorbtion) as well as described here if you like:
I use iodine painting now. For this you can use lugol's iodine or just ordinary iodine tincture or even Betadine.
Ted advises the best way to get rid of oral thrush here:
Although I've never used the ACV plus hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) combo, I have used these two separately for different reasons and they are both powerful anti-fungals. I also agree wholeheartedly with all his other advice.Replied by Pr

03/18/2010Bill, I have to agree with you on how destructive fungus is to the human body and how deceptive it can be. As you mention it will hid in the body waiting for an opportunity to start growing and a person will never know it. I see fungus as one of the great cleanser of the earth digesting unused material. But what does this tell us about what we are consuming and we get an overgrowth inside. As you know too much toxins and waste. I believe eating clean is a big part of conquering this dis-ease.
I am now for the 4th time in my life dealing with this. I am having great results with EC remedies and your posts. I also used the maple syrup combined with baking 3 xs a day to kick start the clean up. Boy did it do it. I lost 7 pounds from stomach in about 3 days.

[YEA] I have been taking Organic VCO before meals for the last 2 days. A single heaped table spoon. It's yummy. I felt a tense pressure in my baby belly and my stomach has not stopped churning very low pain levels. There is also discomfort to my lower back. I was surprised to find a huge discharge below totay. I was unaware of the fact that I had trush. It disclodged and evacuated more discharge than the prescription medicine I take when I feel the discomfort of thrush. I have also been having an unusually thin poo, not watery, loser than the norm. After the display with the discharge I just wonder what is leaving my stomach! The fact that I didnt know it was there is not reassuring. This is the best detox I have ever done. I think in 3 weeks I will reduce to 1table spoon a day, as well as skin and hair application. This site does a fabulous job, somebody needs to tell Oprah.
Colloidal Silver 2 0
Approval Ratings YEA (2) 100% Posted by Loveallnatural (Kansas City, Mo) on 01/22/2012
[YEA] My Dad has had a yeast rash for over 50 years. It is mostly on his back and each summer it would cover his back and itch like crazy. Over the years he has visited every kind of doctor and tried every remedy he could think of trying to find relief. He's tried every prescription and OTC pills or cream available with no effect and summers were unbearable as the heat made him itch constantly. Each summer he took strong prescription steroids in an effort to manage the itching. (He was also very susceptible to athlete's foot. )
I recently started researching, and taking, colloidal silver for my cold sores (really helped) and read that several people with systemic yeast infections had amazing results with it. I thought it might do him so good, so my Mom bought some online from a reputable laboratory and he started taking a few tablespoons each morning after he brushed his teeth.
I warned him that since he has had this rash for 50 years it might take 3-6 months before he noticed any improvement. But within a short few weeks he started having more energy and noticed that his constant heartburn was gone and he wasn't as itchy. Within a month his back seemed completely cleared, he didn't itch at all, and his issues with horrible indigestion (much gas and bloating) had drastically improved. For the first time in over 50 years, he hasn't had any symptoms of athlete's foot or his back rash despite a very hot summer. Also, he usually catches every cold, cough, or virus that goes around... Yet last winter he only had a mild cold once or twice.
We started to realize that he has probably had a systemic yeast infection for many years that caused leaky gut and compromised his overall immune system. Out of desperation, he tried colloidal silver for his back rash, but ended up with AMAZING results of more energy, less illness, normal digestion and gas issues, and no rashes. (He will continue to take it daily until he hits the 12 month mark since he's had it for 50 years and he wants to be completely sure that he kills off all of the yeast and not just the symptoms. ) Good luck to all!!Replied by Rebel

I would like feedback from Ted or any other readers regarding the use of Collidial Silver for treating Candida. From what I have researched and read here on the earthclinic site and other websites there appears to be 3 catagories of collidial silver products, those being collidial silver, a ionically produced silver and a ionic silver w/ protein. From what I have read the ionic silver products when ingested and hit the stomach acids react and become a salt chloride which is then eliminated from the body. If this is correct then I don't see where this would be an effective treatment.
My question is would a "true" Collidial silver be effective as a treatment for Candida as my understanding from what I've read is that it is the silver particles that must come into contact with the fungus/bacteria/virus in order to kill it so it can then be eliminated from the body. So far I have only found one website offering research data supporting the internal use of collidial silver for eliminating candida while also concluding that there is a more noticable benefit from ionic silver when used topically rather than internally. I do agree with the post I read here on collidial silver that if taken internally, a probiotic supplement should be used as well. Any comments and insights would be much appreciated as it appears Collidial Silver could eliminate Candida at a much faster rate than some of the other candidia cleanses I've read about that take 4 months or longer. Thank you and keep up the great work.Posted by Beth on 06/11/2007
[YEA] For years, I suffered chronic candida in the form of migraines, yeast infections, fatigue, food allergies, and PMS that debilitated me with vomiting at least two days a month. I began seeing great relief by using colloidal silver and following the diet I learned from on website "http://dogtorj.net".
I sipped all day on a single teaspoon of colloidal silver added to whatever I was drinking. It is tasteless. Whenever I get a migraine, I even put a spoonful in salt water (and sometimes I use it alone when the pain is unbearable) and use it to flush out my sinuses. The relief is immediate because it suffocates the candida. The die-off symptoms are non-existent.
Candida thrive in progesterone. They have an ability called quorum sensing. That simply means that tiny individual candida can sense when there are enough of them to cause a bigger effect. So now I don't give them that chance. The liver has a hard time recovering from the die-off, the food allergy symptoms from the toxins the candida create AND the stress of the menstrual cycle all at the same time. I discovered if I am especially careful about not eating any grains, dairy, or soy the week before my period, I can avoid a bad scene. It's not sugar the candida eat. Sugar goes through the body too quickly. Candida, needs sustenance that takes longer to break down. It's grains they feed on. That's why low carb diets alleviate symptoms.Replied by Patti

09/10/2008The silver is an excellent choice for many ailments and helps to 'boost' up the immune system, which in turn keeps disease away. Go one step better and purchase "ionic" silver. This process puts the silver in a state where the molecules are even smaller and therefore are absorbed much quicker and at a better rate than the colloidal silver which has larger molecules and your body does not absorb the full intake. One source you can check out for more information is a small family owned business in Canada that has purchased the technology to produce mineral waters in an ionic form. They are called Quench Essentials and I know many health food store sell their product. However, you can order from their website or call their number. I have provided it for you too.

[YEA] I had candida yeast infection so bad that I landed in the hospital -- it went to my head, and ears and and eyes and...causing profuse vomiting for days. The doctors were baffled. Of course for most of them, candida is a made up illness. In NJ, doctors can't list it as a diagnosis cause it doesn't exist. No, doc, it wasn't Meniere's, or an imbalance in the ear canal nor any of the other guesses that you took, it was the genuine article: Candida Albicans. As a result of their not knowing, I went home untreated (except that the night duty nurse tried to give me the heart patient's medication) and treated it myself: I took a series of 10 colonics followed by ozone rectal insufflations which stopped the yeast dead. The ozone killed all the little nasty buggers hiding internally and flooded them with ozone/oxygen. I ate no sugar, flour, dairy or yeast products for a year. Two weeks ago I had my first dose of regular whole wheat yeasted bread and bada bing: no swelling, no itching, no bags under my eyes, no tingles. I recommend a few colonics a year followed by the ozone insufflations, just to make sure!Replied by Ivena

I was wondering if I still have it and should try some of theses remedies, If so which ones? Would gargling with Tea tree oil 2 or 3x a day be a good start? Am kinda confused on the ACV thing, do you just mix it together and drink it or gargle? Thanks, TimReplied by Mike

09/02/2010I've had what I think is candida for years but all the physicians I've been to have run tests and say it isn't so, however, I get this white junk that builds on my tongue and the more sugar I ingest the worse it gets. I also get tired, have gas, diahrea, joint pain, sore eyes, and many other problems when ever I eat foods with sugar. I tried the oil pulling starting about 5 weeks ago and at first had itchy rashes for a few days. This went away and I continue to oil pull twice a day for 30 min each. All my symptoms have decreased substantially, particulary the thrush (or whatever it is). I've been to doctors all over the country, have had tests from A to Z, and none have found anything. I oil pull with olive oil.

[YEA] everyone talks about baking soda for yeast, i have found that cream of tarter is a much better for ridding the body of yeast with out die off, 1 teaspoon in a little water 3 times a day, works great. take for at least 5 days.
i have used this for people suffering from rashes, etc. from any yeast related problem. cream of tarter, comes from the making of wine, so it is mostly made from grape skins pulp and seeds. it also does not have the salt of baking soda so is a better choice for high blood pressure. for thrush just swish around in the mouth and swallow. also great for acid reflux.Posted by Karl (Chiang Mai, Thailand) on 04/22/2007
[YEA] quote: Cream of Tartar kills Yeast !!! Direct quote from the following website: http:/www.totalityofbeing.com/ArchivedYeastInfections.html
..."Through the work of Dr. Tom Revis DC, ND, I've discovered that plain old Cream of Tartar powder, yes the spice, will not only alkalinize better than the coral ever could. (You can test your saliva with Litmus paper to see the difference), but the Cream of Tartar powder also kills yeast all by itself! What a great combo to help with the battle! Most folks need between 1 to 2 tablespoons of the powder daily depending on the severity of the infection. You can mix it with water or just plop the powder in your mouth and swallow water to wash it down. (Don't breathe in while the powder is still dry in your mouth as some of the still dry powder can go down the wrong way). You can divide the tablespoon into 3 teaspoons to take less at one shot. Expect to have the runs for the first few days using the Cream of Tartar as the initial die off of yeast happens.
So take the cream of tartar then at a seperate time take the I Flora (2 capsules 3 to 4 times daily with or with out meals) and the Inulin powder (one teaspoon 3 to 4 times a day) as well. These days I've been using the Inulin from NOW (www.nowfoods.com). It is significantly less expensive that the stuff I used to use as it is from chicory and not artichoke hearts, yet all of the studies done by the German researchers from the University of Leipzig who first successfully used Inulin used the Chicory kind, so why spend more when the chicory Inulin will more than do the job and for a lot less money!
Most docs and patients who have used this program have put a considerable dent in their Candida Infections in 30 days without the problem of compliance to a restrictive diet. The program will work regardless of what you're eating!Replied by Ted
Bangkok, thailand[NAY] Dear Karl: Yes, I have looked on that issue for many years and for me it has always left me in the gray area, or one that I prefer not to recommend. It must be noted that it is with great pains that I not use this, despite many temptations. Why I am never tempted there are many reasons.
Of course you are free to try the remedy and I might be wrong. However, let's look at some of my complaints on such use.
If I have a choice between cream of tartar and potassium bicarbonate, I would choose potassium bicarbonate (and baking soda) for the candida problems. Another form of potassium is potassium citrate, which is free of the problems also. However, people whose body are high in nitrates (and I know because I had experience with this), they can sensitize to too much potassium, causing heart beat problems. At least this is my experience. A safer form is the citrate, or sodium citrate, which is superior than the baking soda. Basically sodium citrate is nothing more than citric acid mixed with baking soda, until pH reaches 8.0, in which case the resultant reaction in a water solution, will yield a sodium citrate. As a simple home remedy, it is a lemon and baking soda formula. If you simply wanted more citrate, than its likely to be a more baking soda is added than the original one which were (8 teaspoon of lime plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda) to be a pH of about 7.5.
Also, I could not confirm the original source of information of Dr. Tom Revis, other than that one quote that it was taken.
The other problem I have is the acid pH of the initial solution, which is taken to be about 3.5. It's the same problem I had with apple cider vinegar, which must be neutralized to a basically more neutral solution to a pH of 7, otherwise you get burning sensation of the esophagus at pH below 7.
The other issue is that when we prepare the growth of a yeast medium culture (which I might be wrong, but candida is yeast too), one patents uses (Nitrate reductase from yeasts, the preparation and use thereof Document Type and Number: United States Patent 5294539):
3. An NAD(P)H-dependent nitrate reductase according to claim 1, wherein the synthetic nutrient medium contains essentially:
0.04 g/l m-inositol, 1.0 g/l potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 1.0 g/l magnesium sulfate, 4.5 g/l potassium hydrogen tartrate, 1.5 g/l potassium nitrate, and 20.0 g/l glucose.
The cream of tartar is the potassium hydrogen tartrate (other synonyms are potassium hydrogen tartrate cream of tartar, potassium acid tartrate, monopotassium tartrate and potassium bitartrate).
Also in autistics and certain people with a problem of leaky gut, it was found that tartrate to be high and would be toxic to them. While it is true that tartrate is part of the Kreb's cycle, it is also true of citrate, acetates, and malates. The most results of energy increase, and hence, the immune system appears to be the acetates and the malates. While my own experience in achieving superior soda loading (a term atheletes used to achieve lower lactic acidosis), involves either or both maintaining a stable alkaline pH, or getting cells rid of the lactic acid. Now, maintaining alkaline pH, I found that citrates work better than bicarbonates in general. While the body rids of lactic acidosis best with acetate. The problem about acetate use is it won't achieve effective alkalization as with the citrates. So in my opinion the citrates and acetates are preferred to raise the immune system best. As to the problem of tartrates many people with bacteria, or toxins, the bacteria or other organism tends to produce too much tartrates, causing the body to be in excess of tartrate whenever people do get sick. This is especially true of leaky gut syndrome and autistics. A small study attached, below on autistics can be read for your perusal. There are many others.
A book excerpts on tartaric acid (from http://www.greatplainslaboratory.com/bookstore/autism.asp#biologicalTretments )is as follows:
"A toxicology manual (3) indicates that tartaric acid is a highly toxic substance. As little as 12 g has caused human fatality with death occurring from 12 hours to 9 days after ingestion. Gastrointestinal symptoms were marked (violent vomiting and diarrhea, abdominal pain, thirst) and followed by cardiovascular collapse and/or acute renal failure(3). A gram is approximately the weight of a cigarette. This compound especially damages the muscles and the kidney (4,5) and may even cause fatal human nephropathy (kidney damage) (6) which was of interest to me since the two brothers with autism initially evaluated had the extreme muscle weakness as well as evidence of impaired renal function."
One more problem is the level of tartaric acid in autistics is so high that it reaches toxic levels in autistics. The problem about this autistics quite often get yeast infections, whether they are candida albicans or not I don't know. And yeast infections as a result have high heavy metals.
Tartaric acid is not recommended for people with either chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia. It decreases the malic acid, and reduces the energy levels. Again if you don't believe me, here is a quote, source (http://www.greatplainslaboratory.com/book/bk5sect2.html):
"A large percentage of patients with the disorder fibromyalgia who have high amounts of tartaric acid in the urine respond favorably to treatment with malic acid (11-13). I presume that supplements of malic acid are able to overcome the toxic effects of tartaric acid by supplying deficient malic acid. Fifty percent of patients with fibromyalgia who also frequently have elevated yeast metabolites also suffer from hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) even though their diet may have adequate or even excessive sugar(14). The reason may be due to the inhibition of the Krebs cycle by tartaric acid. The Krebs cycle is the main provider of raw materials such as malic acid that can be converted to blood sugar (Figure 6) when the body uses up its supply. (The technical name for this process is gluconeogenesis or "new formation of glucose".) If sufficient malic acid cannot be produced, the body cannot produce the sugar glucose which is the main fuel for the brain. The person with hypoglycemia feels weak and their thinking is foggy because there is insufficient fuel for their brain. If adults with elevated values of tartaric acid in the urine have foggy thinking, have little energy, and are so depressed that they may seek out Dr. Kevorkian, imagine what a young child who has some of the same toxins and who has yet to form a clear concept of the world must feel like."
One other that is not mentioned is heart palpitations, diarrhea, excess sweating, and fainting more likely I think from the excess use of potassium than anything else as this basically skews your blood biochemistry and it is a waste product of yeast.Replied by Joanne

07/19/2008[WARNING!] I very much appreciated the toxicity information listed under cream of tartar in the cures for candida section. I even wonder if I already have damage from using it before (in much lower doses than suggested here, and for arthritis).
My favorite remedy for candida is Huang Lian Su, a chinese herb available at Chinese pharmancies, but not where I am currently living, which brought me to your site. I did take some GSE--grapefruit seed extract--before heading to the grocery to get other remedies to try, and realized as I was shopping, that the symptoms were already subsiding. So GSE might be at the top of my new list of favorite helps for candida.
The toxicity issues around cream of tartar as documented in the "nay" article were very surprizing, and I will never use it again. The levels recommended by someone else posting on this page sound potentially extremely damaging, when compared with the information that follows in that entry. I hope you will remove the suggestion of cream of tartar as a remedy given the extreme hazzards, and the poor public awareness of these hazzards.
Thank you,

10/01/2008[YEA] I vote Yea! The comments posted for this one intrigued me to do some more research on cream of tartar. Here's what I found. Cream of Tartar is NOT the same thing as Tartaric Acid - although some try to use the names synonymously.
The technical name for Cream of tartar is potassium bitartrate which is not exactly the same as straight tartaric acid. It is formed during the cold stabilization process in wine making and happens when the potassium that naturally occurs in grapes binds with the tartaric acid which also naturally occurs in grapes. Thus diluting (neutralizing) the tartaric acid and making a white crystalline substance called potassium bitartrate.
Let's also note that cream of tartar is a food grade substance which is regulated by the US FDA. It is widely used in baking, as well as some sodas and lots of other foods. If it were that toxic to the consumer, I sincerely doubt the Food and Drug Administration would allow it to be freely used in foods available to everyone!Replied by Tina

08/25/2013Candida always lives in the body. It is impossible to totally eliminate it, it must be brought into balance. There is no magic bullet but a synergetic effect can be achieved with a diet protocol like GAPS, an antiviral like MMS and an antifungal agent like grapefruit seed extract. Also very helpful is to re-colonize the gut with a wide range of probiotics from cultured vegetables, raw milk kefir and home brewed Kombucha. Once the Candida is in balance you will need to make it your mission to strengthen your immune system. A strong, healthy immune system will keep lifelong order and balance. One last note is to make sure you do not have parasites. A parasitic environment is perfect for Candida overgrowth. Good luck.Replied by Timh

08/25/2013@Tinetine: As for prevention of Candida take 200mcg Chromium Picolinate 2x day and take Cinnamon caps 1 or 2 per day. These two nutrients combined will help your body convert glucose to energy and kill candida at the same time. If you have underlying issues you will need to do more aggressive treatments as listed here: http://earthclinic.com/cures/candida-diet-protocol.html.

08/25/2013Hi Tinetine... If you want to get rid of your candida you will have to employ more strategies than just a good diet. I think it is very difficult to cure candida by only using a healthy diet. What normally happens is that the diet can certainly sometimes improve your candida symptoms but, when you stop the diet, candida just comes roaring back in full force. This means that your diet has not got rid of your candida because it is able to hide away in biofilms in your body. So using just an anti-candida diet on its own will not cure you and get rid of all the candida from your body.
The reason you are feeling tired sick and tired all the time wth brain fog, lethargy is because of the steady accumulation of candida toxins or mycotoxins that are so characteristic of candida symptoms. Therefore you must neutralize and remove these toxins using molybdenum (or sodium molybdate), selenium, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Milk Thistle.
The strategy I use against candida is geared to be as antagonistic as possible to all its peculiar behaviours and employs:
* Wide-acting Anti-fungals and Antimicrobials
* Anti-biofilm protocols
* Alkalizing
* Essential Detox
* Liver and Kidney Support
* Vitamin and Minerals Support (Immune Support)
* Anti-Candida Diet
A full version of this anti-candida protocol is given here on Earthclinic.
And these tables actually quickly define the wide-acting beneficial effects of this anti-candida protocol.
Another good way to get rid of candida and other biofilms from the gut is to use protease enzymes like nattokinase or lumbrokinase enzymes (or bromealain or papain plant protease enzymes). These enzymes should be taken outside mealtimes and they act to quickly dissolve the candida biofilms in the intestines in order to totally expose candida and all other bacterial pathogens that are hiding in biofilms. Biofilms are made of fibrin and fibrin is a protein which is dissolved and removed using these enzymes. You must also take heavy metal detox at the same time because biofilm destruction always leads to a large release of heavy metals in the gut -- which must be neutralized using chlorella, EDTA or sodium thiosulfate etc. A candida killer(such as lugols iodine or borax) must also be employed to kill the exposed candida and other pathogens that are released when the biofilms are destroyed.
Another all-in-one efficient biofilm remover, candida killer and detoxer is turpentine(distilled gum sap of pine). Turpentine or pine oil is antifungal, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-mycoplasma and anti-parasitic. it doesn't get much better than that. And, strangely, turpentine does not kill beneficial gut bacteria.
I've been using pine oil or turpentine (Pinus sylvestris) for the last six months and can attest to its bowel cleansing and blood purifying properties. This oil also increases energy, don't know why.
When you initially start using turpentine, start small and go slow. Start with drops and take a week or more to work up to the one teaspoon dosage per day for candida. And if you already have candida -- you certainly will probably get a considerable Herx or die off effect so adjust dosages accordingly and be patient. If you take too much turpentine initially and too quickly, then you will probably get laxative effects. Take one teaspoon a day (consecutively) for no more than 10 days and then stop for 10 days. The maintenance dose for health is to take a teaspoon of turpentine only once or twice a week.I take turpentine in two ways -- one teaspoon of turpentine plus one teaspoon of molasses or raw honey mixed in the mouth with saliva and then chased down with a small amount of water. Take this just before meals so that it will be carried into the intestines with the food. This is a particularly good method for killing candida in the intestines. Or I just take one teaspoon of turpentine with a glass of water on an empty stomach -- where the turpentine gets quickly absorbed directly into the blood from the stomach with this method. This latter method is also better and more effective at curing other diseases outside the intestine and is a great way of purifying the blood.
There is also another option for you. There was also a woman who recently claimed a remarkable improvement from her own serious candida problems on EC -- she just drank pine needle tea three or four times a day which seemed to successfully resolve many of her own serious candida problems. Pine needle tea contains the same oils as pine oil or turpentine. And if you are living in a region with pine trees -- then it's a free cure -- all you need are the fresh pine needles to make the tea. You can also purchase this on the internet. Too make pine needle tea add two tablespoons of washed, chopped pine needles to a teapot of water that has just boiled. Steep for 10 minutes then just drink the tea.Replied by Ed2010
08/25/2013Even I read that post regarding pine needle tea, but I could not find now. If EC can help thanks a lot.
Now I see why there are so many Pine Trees in north america or in Canada. Earth has its own balance of diseases and remedies, we just have to seek. In India, Turmeric, Garlic are ready available antibiotic. In African Continent, it can be different.
Also Candida is most prevalent in North America than Asia. Whereas in india ameobic and bacterial infection are more prevalent.

08/25/2013Some years ago I made a strong tea from white cedar leaves and shortly thereafter felt quite faint and hallucinated - I had been laying on my bed reading a book aloud and felt sleepy so I closed my eyes briefly. When I woke up I'd been dreaming of listening to myself reading outloud the book I'd just been reading. So, be careful with your teas and your trees. The other day I found the following:
"Some tree's leaves will kill you. Some plants under stress change chemically and produce either Prussic or Nitric Acid. These acids act on the hemoglobin's ability to make oxygen available for use. In effect you suffocate. Often within minutes. A few years ago in Kentucky some horses ate fallen Maple leaves and died. The trees were in drought stress. Sorghum when it is stressed from cutting is not recommended for animal feed until it reaches a height of at least 18 or 24 inches. Corn plants for silage often react the same way. Both have killed a lot of mammals. Acorns with their tannic acid can make you ill if it's not leached out."

After going through menopause more symptoms have appeared and I have been diagnosed with systematic candida by a naturopath as well as it being confirmed by Bill and Ted on Earthclinic. Since I have eliminated all dairy and sugar, fruit, wheat I have a concern if my body is nutrient deficient. I did previously have symptoms of toenail fungus and bleeding gums before starting the candida diet but the bleeding gums have gotten worse during the strict diet. I am taking a multi vitamin and taking a calcium supplement but not sure if this is enough. Also began taking Lugols iodine during the course of the cleanse. Should I try to incorporate fruit and dairy into the cleanse? Or any other supplement? Thanks for any advise.

Today (Saturday) we're having a day off and spending it at the Speke Resort in Kampala. It's a very smart place on the shores of Lake Victoria and has a large swimming pool.
Juliet was about to apply her sun cream when we noticed that what she thought was sun cream was actually Spanish hairspray. She had been using it all day yesterday at Sanga and wondered why it had not been very effective!
Last night we got back to the hotel just before 9 so we sat down to eat at about 9.30 and had a good meal. Because it is graduation week at one of the universities there seem to be parties every night. By 11 the party in the hotel had just about finished. When Julia and I went to bed there was a party going outside our window but outside the hotel compound. It sounded like a crazy 1980s disco and was close enough for us to feel that we were right in the middle of it. No chance ...
This morning Joe and Tom were woken up at 6.45 by a man hammering furniture together right outside their window. They were not happy as today we were not setting off until 9am and this was to be our lie in day!! Every day i seem to write that each day has been hotter than the previous one. We had some welcome rain overnight and had hoped that it would be a little cooler for us. Not so! We arrived at Bombo at about 11am. There were around 200 people ...
Last night we went to a Chinese restaurant in what seemed like a very nice part of Kampala. As is often the case with Chinese restaurants there was too much food. The waiter asked if we wanted the remains of the meal to be packed up in foil boxes. On the way back we stopped to give the food to some people who were sleeping rough in the city centre. One girl had just fallen asleep on the pavement. This morning we were 90 minutes late leaving for our second day at Nakaseke. ...
Just us
... Matt and I tried out the Irish Coffees....v. good.
Marni and Brody were in good form today. There was an elderly couple sitting behind us waiting to be picked up by their driver who was stuck in the snow. Marni and Brody entertained them for most of our lunch. It was very cute and it definitely made the couples wait more enjoyable.
After our lazy lunch we walked back and the kids walked back along the wall again.

ATLANTA - DECEMBER 06: Jason Avant #81 of the Philadelphia Eagles against the Atlanta Falcons at Georgia Dome on December 6, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images)
It was reported yesterday that wide receiver Jason Avant called a players-only meeting yesterday after their beleaguered head coach left team facilities. The theme of the conversation centered upon the reality that it's been the players who have created this mess, not Reid. Avant's message will ring hollow if the Eagles don't figure it out Sunday. That's all fine and good. I'd rather hear a story about players rallying around their coach than one where they trash their coach. Still, should it really have taken a players-only meeting to create a sense of urgency amongst the players on this roster? Did they not realize their tackling is a league-wide joke, their sloppy play disgraceful?Don't think merely because Avant called a players-only meeting that this is going to turn a timid defense into one full of head-hunters. It's not happening. … [visit site to read more]

onions are small any suggestions
I planted candy onions (which I know are not suppose to get huge) but they are a lot smaller then last year. I planted small plants, not seeds. Are there any suggestions for what I should do to increase their size? We had a lot of rain this spring and early summer and it has been rather cool. I would think that would help them.
Fertilizer is the same I used last year. Do I need a cover crop over the area during the winter to build up the soil?
Aren't they delish, Andre? What was the size range for this years crop? Last year's? Also, do you remove soil to half expose the bulb as it expands? Rotate? What fertilizer? No weeds? Raised beds?
This summer I trialed nine kinds of sweet onions: Dixondale samplers for short, intermediate and longday, to see the variance in growth in my non-raised bed soil (intermediate zone). 90% of these were spaced 5-6" apart. The thinnest plants were spaced at 2". My largest Candy were 4.5"; average was 3".
For some reason, the three white varieties were the largest (maybe due to the many rains), The least, quality wise, was Walla Walla, which had great size and mild flavor, but sometimes had a soft decaying 'second layer' though a 4" size. Overall, the reds were the smallest (2-3" average), and the strongest flavored.
Of interest was the 2" spaced row, where all grew til touching the next one and then leaned outward to increase size. Most of these were 2" or even 3". I had removed very few for fresh eating.
All harvested and drying on screens. Now observing which store the longest. I froze 25# with the thickest necks. Already planning next year's onions and will go back to raised beds for them.
They are great tasting buy rather small most of mine were 4-5" this year 2-3". Here are the stats
Also, do you remove soil to half expose the bulb as it expands? A little but they were covered with mulch
Rotate? Nope I did not do that (although I assume I should have)
What fertilizer? organic 10-20-10
No weeds? some weeds
Raised beds? Not raised bed in ground. Should they be in a raised bed?

some $$$ in this lousy market, I suggest looking at the financials of AMT and MOVI and perhaps shorting them both. They have been my only $$$ makers in this severe downdraft. Loot - I know you sometimes follow me - take a look. With interest rates on the rise, companies with huge debt won't do well at all. Can't believe the action even in EBAY - they are taking it down!!! Stocks with outrageous PE's and the need to borrow $$$ will be crushed. HI to Rug, NCB, Incite, etc . . .

LBJ was a lying crook from TEXAS just like Bush and did the bidding of the oil and military industries just like Bush.As I said in earlier posts the oil companies are plenty powerful without the whitehouse,but they are downright murderous when they control the peoples house as well.
I liked both Carter and Reagan as presidents. I would share with you a little personal story: As a senior in highschool I was privileged to have a little sit-down one morning with the late Walter Annenberg. He, of course, was an ardent Ray Gun fan. I opined that I saw value in both men. He said it is good to see men instead of politicians and then added, "maybe they're both good kites." Huh? Then he added, "A good kite flies higher against the wind--not with it." Since then I've always tried to look at the man first and the politician second, which is why I'm so disappointed with W. A major buffoon, a disgrace to the office. Recent opinion polls show America is waking up to the fact that W may not be the man many thought he was. And I'm fine with that. Better late than never as that W kite is now tangled up in a cherry tree out there in D.C. Only three years and eight months left to go!
"The bad economy were laid at his feet by those great republicans Nixon and Ford"--
LBJ waged 2 wars--the one on poverty and the VN War. He paid for neither and set the stage. Pols are great to spend and lay the cost on the next generation. Either party. It is also false to blame Carter for everything. History and Economics have given him better marks than he got at that time. He was probably the most decent man to occupy the Presidency. He had too many weaknesses, like trying to micro manage everything. Every President has strengths and weaknesses.
Jordan..also...you mentioned TTWO and GTA. Sooner or later GTA is going to lose it's steam/popularity. I predict that'll happen sooner, rather then latter. The competition is cutting into that market...and besides...it's just getting old. I've played these games. GTA is TTWO's money-maker (obviously). But...if you've noticed...they are getting into sports-themed games lately...ERTS niche...and I think they will do well in that market share. Again...I don't own shares currently, but have had it on my watch list since I sold it around $38 a little while back. I keep it on my watch list (like many other stocks) so I can see news in many sectors each day when I check my portfolio. Like to keep informed in many market sectors daily.
Tea...I know you didn't ask me...but I'm like you currently...large % of cash in portfolio, just waiting to put it somewhere...patience, patience. <s> I might throw a small amount at TTWO with their recent 3-2...but better to wait until the fall season...summer doldrums coming up, game companies have a better cycle in the fall/winter.
>>>TTWO has been my favorite for a long time and is still at a very reasonable price despite finally participating in a bit of a run<<<
Same here...I've owned TTWO in the past and made good money on them. No position currently. They announced a 3-2 split this morning if you hadn't noticed.
>>>I know your intellect is far superior to mine, but what the heck is "sooths"?<<<
Tea...there's a reason why he has "dummy" as part of his screen name. I'm assuming that his first name in real life is Rummy. So you have to give him a little bit of credit...everytime he posts, in essense, he is admitting to being a dummy...everytime he posts. Not that we needed to see his screen name to verify that of course.
I hadn't followed ATVI closely until recently, since it seemed like they relied a lot on games based on movies (they do have Tony Hawk under contract for another 7 years or so). Also, their SP is more attractive than just about any others right now, due to some depreciation after a split. I'm still debating getting in, only b/c I'm slightly unsure of the long-term prospects.
TTWO has been my favorite for a long time and is still at a very reasonable price despite finally participating in a bit of a run. Plus, that stock seems to find more certain support than many others (I'll keep saying that until it breaks down, I guess). With GTA, Civ, Reservior Dogs, MLB Exclusive contract, Midnight Club, they are obviously trying to diversify around GTA. And GTA still has its lucrative XBox, computer, and PSP releases soon, so any successes in addition to GTA before the next cycle will be seen as strong positives by the market.
Majesco (COOL) is riskier, but with much more potential reward. The SP keeps dropping for apparently no reason, as Majesco is set to release some very well-reviewed new titles (see www.adventrising.com , www.majescoentertainment.com ). They also own proprietary hardware related to the Game Boy Advance color videos. If thier stock stabilizes and then they have some positive news, I believe it could go from $9 to the $20 range. Yahoo! has them at a forward P/E of 12.75, which is fairly attractive IMO.
I like ERTS in theory, but their pricey valuation and continued erosion of sports games market share, combined w/ tepid growth propects give me less relative hope for EA's appreciation. I'm also still bitter b/c I sold some @ 52 in December, missing out on momentary appreciation to $70 (leaving my other VG stocks behind wrt appreciation, but bringing them down a bit when it fell).
I don't know enough about THQ to make an informed decision...really I have seen TTWO as a great value for so long, and their business keeps getting more stable and diversified...I feel more confident about TTWO's future than ever. All they really need to do is announce a settlement w/ the SEC (yes, here is the potential catch), and the SP will take off. I mean seriously, what management team would be locking up long-term MLB deals, buying the rights to Civilization, thinking of new GTA locations, and taking aim at EA, all with the knowledge that in 3 months they would be fired, their stock worthless, and all the work would have been for naught? The settlement will be announced soon (IMO) and then you will see some near-term appreciation. Hold on, though, b/c it'll be a while before TTWO will be overvalued.
...(continued)...can't hurt either. Margins have been dropping due to increased competition and SOME maturing of the industry, but I believe it is set up for another stage of fairly rapid growth. The improving demographics will more than make up for any pricing pressures as the industry's key players secure their places at the top; ERTS, TTWO, ATVI, and THQI are the main contenders. Smoother revenue streams will also be characteristic of the industry as it approaches maturity due to consolidation. The only 3 of the above 4 (IMO) will be around in 5 years, and you'll wish you had bought the other one due to the increased valuations they will see along with a nice takeover premium. Also of note wrt profitability, there has been much talk recently of advertising within games...they are the next major source of increased profitability in VG's, especially for those with online games.
More specifically within the industry, I believe quality long-term titles (like GTA or Tony Hawk) will prove quite valuable in the long run due to the name recognition, dependability of sales, and originality of the concepts. Anyone can publish a VG based on a movie, as long as they get the deal. But only TTWO can publish GTA. That means something.
These are just my thoughts on the demographics of the videogame industry...sorry for the prolonged rant, but I did warn you it was off-topic. And it still took up less than half of the slots necessary for Nonad to get in his daily Dump and De-Pump.
What an insightful post! It's refreshing to read such an articulate view from a young pup like you (I have a daughter almost your age in college). You certainly must be an avid reader to have chosen Mr. Rogers' book! Speaking of the demographics - how about the part stating that a FEMALE Korean youth would be in great demand due to the societal choices (euphemestic version) being made. I agree with your views - yes, even about video games. I am currently eyeing Activision - do you own it? Teens have such discretionary spending power - IPODS, video games, TRLG jeans, etc. etc. You don't need to tell me! Let me know your video games picks - do you think Activision is a good one? Best to you; I'll bet your parents are proud of you. :) Gotta go listen to a cc.Thanks for the post.

Any healthy, red-blooded male reader would have told you that the news, late last year, about the Shanghai Sperm Bank seemed almost too good to be true. And indeed, if the report was anything to go by, this was a medical facility with a real difference.
Apart from jabbing a pointy-ended tube into the crook of the elbow, there's no way of actually coaxing blood out of a patient's arm (at least if you're trying to keep them alive).
Semen, of course, is a different story. Humankind has devoted millennia to researching the matter, and the techniques for encouraging the flow of this vital fluid have pretty much been perfected by now.
The photo that accompanied the sperm bank story depicted several attractive, squeaky clean, young females ably assisting patients with one such method. The uniformed gals went about their task with great diligence—which is just what you'd expect, considering how notoriously difficult the average man is to arouse.
By the way, the donors were fully suited up too, masks and all, presumably in the interest of hygiene. The article's author completed the profile by providing the Shanghai Sperm Bank's address, as well as helpful donor details: how often (4-5X/month), maximum allowed donations per visit (3), and pay rate (US$30/session).
Well, we hate to be the ones to break the shocking news, but the Shanghai Sperm Bank story has turned out to be a hoax! After receiving inquiries from interested—extremely interested, we'd guess—potential donors, an official at Renji Hospital, the facility's actual home, scrambled to set the record straight.
"These pictures are completely misleading," said Li Jin. "We never have female nurses assisting in sperm collection, which is done by the donor himself, alone in a special room." The hospital claims to follow strict ethical guidelines, and reports that no complaints to the contrary have ever been received.
Next thing you know, they'll be trying to tell us there's no Santa Claus.
Wow, those nurses must have huge hands, because those penises sure do look tiny.
You're doing it wrong. Meant to be looking at the girls
Old but still funny.People belieeve what they want to,sometimes when you put facts right under thier noses.I know a man that still claims it is true.Poor man needs to get out and get a life
I was wondering why my nurse ran out the room when I flopped down onto the hospital bed and whipped my junk out.
she had to find a another nurse with very tiny hands—lol
Too bad those nurse weren't using their mouths – now that would be a story
Nurses should use thier FEET with red or black nail polish on toes with anklets to collect sperms….lol
Of course no complaints have been filed if you went to donate sperm and the nurse helped you along your not going to complain
after getting the news, i reserved the ticket to china.
Gosh i have to return it.
This is something I would never imagine in my dreams even!!
I must lie there
>>considering how notoriously difficult the average man is to arouse
Oh, how I lol'ed.
Wow…Assisting in sperm collecting…
So what's the photo about????
I'm so intrigued!!!!
I wish it could be true…. I would have donated my sperms several times if these ladies helped me
Well even if it's not true, it should be. X^D *Hahahaha!*
Darn it – I was starting to think communism wasn't so bad.

Susann CokalTo read someone else's journal is to share the anxieties and heartbreaks confided to those quiet pages. Even more than memoirs, diaries promise intimacy and comfort, a sense of immediacy and an acknowledgment that others have suffered the same slings and arrows that fill the Moleskines on our own shelves. Sex is inevitably of interest, as are aspiration and achievement…Godwin doesn't disappoint in any of these areas…an absorbing, if sometimes uncomfortable, study of how to construct a creative persona. Godwin eloquently demonstrates that the act of writing is an assertion of hope, although the words themselves are often painful.

Universal has dropped the upcoming Paul Greengrass-directed film Memphis, about Martin Luther King Jr.'s last days, the days he supposedly spent chain-smoking, boozing and vocalizing his distaste with the Vietnam War (and therefore jeopardizing his relationship with President Johnson at the time) -- all with a marriage on the rocks. So, you know, this really isn't too surprising.
But the studio's official stance on the project isn't one of controversy. Deadline says Universal "confirmed that it halted the movie, but attributed it to the time, scheduling and an uncertainty the film could be pulled together in time for next February." Not too surprising, considering Greengrass is known for being a pretty slow worker.
Then again, this is kind of a hot-button topic and there could potentially be some type of conspiracy, so, maybe there's a conspiracy. Deadline also says that they've heard rumors that King's estate didn't like the script and pressured the studio to scrap the project, with rumors that they threatened to go public with their distaste in the project which would've made it pretty difficult to market. There's also a rumor that there's already a MLK Jr. biopic in the works at DreamWorks and they didn't want to compete with Universal in some type of epic good MLK versus evil MLK battle.
Conspiracies aside, this is all pretty sad because Greengrass would've undoubtedly given us a taste of MLK we hadn't seen before. The filmmaker has handled topical and controversial real-life situations is the past with respectable, yet truthful, taste (example: United 93). Sadly though, it sounds like the King estate is only familiar with Jason Bourne (which, although a great trilogy, probably doesn't shout "honest portrayal" very well to the family). Alas, if we learned anything from controversial historical depictions in the past couple of months it's that if there's no one else in the world that's willing to distribute it, no matter how much of a big, steaming, pile of crap it is, there's always room on ReelzChannel.

Weekend Trivia -- Sunday
Happy Sunday Morning, All. It is grey and rainy here!! Had my usual lie in, now on to my day, but first - Trivia!!
A talented British musician died last November - Celia Sheen. While you probably don't recognize her name, her music might strike a chord. While mostly noted as a violin player, she had other musical talents and played another instrument, known to artists as varied Led Zepplin and the Beach Boys. Hmmm, this might be another 'too easy for you lot', question or I may need lots of clues. Let's see how you do to start!!
Hmmmm. Might I have seen this instrument played on an episode of The Big Bang Theory?
Uhoh. Don't watch Big Bang Theory. One instrument came to mind for no reason whatsoever other than that it would be unexpected, but is still a string instrument. Of course if strike a chord is a clue, I will need to change my guess. :)
Cynthia, who is off to buy some mulch for her pathetic new garden bed where the dogs will probably trample everything as they chase squirrels from the bird feeders up the holly tree. Forgot about that adventure they love on a daily basis. Darn! Seemed like the perfect spot yesterday. :(
Well, well TM - should have realized you were a big fan of the Sheldon!! So am I, but I didn't remember him playing it, even though I remember that episode!! And here I had a clue all picked out for you: it was originally designed as a 'proximity sensor', during the Russian civil war.
Ms. Sheen played it for the theme song of one of my favourite British detective shows - Midsomer Murders. Is any of this helping, Cyn??
Oh, I love Midsomer Murders. Too bad it airs on Friday nights. Should pay better attention to the theme songs...now had you asked about the themes to the old Westerns tv shows, I would have nailed it!
Proximity sensors during a civil war, huh? I was leaning toward more heavenly instruments. Will ask Chuck when he comes back from his trek with the pups.
OK, more references, which may or may not help!! While not widely used in classical music performances, the instrument found great success in many motion pictures, notably, Spellbound, The Red House, The Lost Weekend (all three of which were written by Miklos Rozsa, the composer who pioneered the use of the instrument in Hollywood scores), The Spiral Staircase, Rocketship X-M, The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Thing (From Another World), The Ten Commandments (the 1956 DeMille film). More recent appearances in film scores include Monster House, Ed Wood and The Machinist(both featuring Lydia Kavina). The DVDs for Ed Wood, Bartleby and The Day the Earth Stood Still and Spellbound (Criterion Collection) include short features on this instrument. Robby Virus, the founder and player of the band Project:Pimento, was featured on the soundtrack to the movie Hellboy (2004).
I've been under the weather so haven't been on the forum for awhile, still feeling kind of peely wally so it's lots of couch time until things sort themselves out.
I know what the instrument you're looking for, I think it starts with a "T". It's a thingy you wave your hands over but don't touch.
I'm a big fan of Midsomer Murders and was curious about what made that unusual sound in the theme song so looked it up but darn I can't remember what it's called.
Another one stumped. Oh, I remember that scene but have no idea what the instrument is called. I thought it was something that Seldon made.
Sadly, our PBS channels do not carry Midsomer Murders. I also enjoy a good English mystery series.
Hope you feel better soon, Annette.
Well, I'm always surprised when I stump some of you!! TM had it and I believe that Annette was on her way - I was looking for Theremin.
The theremin, originally known as the therphone/etherphone, thereminophone or termenvox/thereminvox is an early electronic musical instrument controlled without discernible physical contact from the player. It is named after its Russian inventor, Professor Leon Theremin, who patented the device in 1928. The controlling section usually consists of two metal antennas which sense the position of the player's hands and control oscillators for frequency with one hand, and amplitude (volume) with the other, so it can be played without being touched. The electric signals from the theremin are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker. Theremin granted commercial production rights to RCA, but since it was released immediately after the Stock Crash, it never achieved commercial success.
In 1938, Theremin left the United States, though the circumstances related to his departure are in dispute. Many accounts claim he was taken from his New York City apartment by KGB agents,taken back to the Soviet Union and made to work in a sharashka laboratory prison camp at Magadan, Siberia. He reappeared 30 years later. In his 2000 biography of the inventor, Theremin: Ether Music and Espionage, Albert Glinsky suggested the Russian had fled to escape crushing personal debts, and was then caught up in Stalin's political purges. In any case, Theremin did not return to the United States until 1991.
A Moog Theremin kit.
The theremin is rare among musical instruments in that it is played without physical contact. The musician stands in front of the instrument and moves his or her hands in the proximity of two metal antennas. The distance from one antenna determines frequency (pitch), and the distance from the other controls amplitude (volume). Most frequently, the right hand controls the pitch and the left controls the volume, although some performers reverse this arrangement. Some low-cost theremins use a conventional, knob operated volume control and have only the pitch antenna. While commonly called antennas, they are not used for receiving or broadcasting radio frequency, but act as plates in a capacitor.
The Beach Boys actually used a similar device, called a Tannerin in "Good Vibrations" - funny, I thought vibes would give the away! Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin used a variation of the theremin (minus the loop) during performances of "Whole Lotta Love" and "No Quarter" throughout the performance history of Led Zeppelin. Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones also used the instrument on the group's 1967 albums "Between the Buttons" and "Their Satanic Majesties Request".
So, for TM, who got it in one:
Annette, here's one for the 'T': - hope your feeling better soon.
Thanks to all for playing!! Hope to 'see' you next week. Bobbie, here is an online link - you can watch episodes here, for free - http://www.free-tv-video-online.me/internet/
Here is a link that might be useful: Theme from Midsomer Murders
Well, how cool is that?! I never would have gotten it.
Bobbie, hope you enjoy the series. It moves around a bit on our station, so sometimes I have to search and sometimes they bump it altogether!
Thanks for the fun and the link to the theme, Nancy.
Today I watched a DVD of a behind the scenes documentary of Midsomer Murders and saw the theremin being played with a short explanation about its origin and use. It certainly adds to the eerienest of the theme.
Midsomer Murders looks like an interesting series, too bad it hasn't run on any of our PBS stations. This was the only DVD in our library about the series. I will look for Caroline Graham's novels.

T-shirt design to promote a product
Closed - This job posting has been filled and work has been completed.
Job Description
Attached artwork (Copyright protected - registered design) not for public.
To be used as reference material to produce a Tattoo looking T-shirt design.
The design is to look and represent armour skin. The grunge battle damaged, war torn design will focuse on the weave, texture and design the cord itself. The cord will commence on the right shoulder (high near the neck) and seam of the T-shirt collar. It will snake over the front 'deltoid' area, forming into a circular design (similiar to tribal designs). The design could take on a similar design beginning on the opposite shoulder and travel over to the back area. The design is in replicating the texture of the cord. A plain colour design and a ful colour design needs to be made. The design needs to be vetorised so that it can be made larger or smaller (A3 down to A5 size).
