After a long and painful downturn in the housing market, home prices in many—but not all—regions of the U.S. are showing signs of recovery. According to Zillow, a real estate listing website, home values rose 5.1% across the U.S. between February 2012 and February 2013. Many local housing markets are performing considerably better than the country as a whole. Home values rose more than 13% in 10 of the 30 largest housing markets for which Zillow has data, and rose more than 20% in five of them. Most of the 10 housing markets on the list were disproportionately hurt by the housing crisis. However, many of the areas with the most growth in the past year have remained desirable places to live. This has helped these areas recover at a faster clip compared with the rest of the country. Residents have taken advantage of the record-low mortgage rates and relatively low prices, despite the fact that average home values in places like San Jose and San Francisco are higher than most of the country. From 24/7 Wall St.'s review of the Zillow data, take a look at the 10 hottest housing markets 2013:
10. Denver
Change in home value: 13.1%
Current home value: $234,200
Bottom in home value: Q2 2011
Forecast change in home value: 3.1%
The city experienced robust growth in 2012, and this is likely to continue, according to Zillow. However, between 2013 and 2014, home values are expected to rise only an additional 3.1%, by far the smallest growth of any housing market on this list. The Denver market didn't fall as hard as other areas during the housing collapse. Between the peak in the first quarter of 2006 and the third quarter of 2012, Denver home prices only fell 5.4%. This February, more than 5,000 homes sold—an increase of 27% from the same month last year.
9. Detroit
Change in home value: 13.1%
Current home value: $84,700
Bottom in home value: Q3 2011
Forecast change in home value: 4.4%
For years, Detroit has been hit by a steep decline in home prices, as well as continued contraction in the automobile industry. As of the first quarter of 2013, the average home value in the Detroit area was just $84,700, by far the lowest of all the large metro areas in the country measured by Zillow. Detroit continues to suffer from high unemployment. The area's unemployment rate was 11.3% in February, down just slightly from 11.5% a year ago.
8. Los Angeles
Change in home value: 14.9%
Current home value: $439,400
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 11.1%
In addition to the nearly 15% growth already experienced in the past year, home values are expected to rise an additional 11% next year. The growth in the housing market in California has led to growth in employment as well. The unemployment rate in the Los Angeles metropolitan area was 10.3%, a significant improvement from the 11.6% rate a year ago. Between February 2012 and February 2013, the number of people employed in construction rose 7.1%, an indicator of an improving housing market.
7. Riverside, Calif.
Change in home value: 16.3%
Current home value: $210,100
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 17.2%
Like many parts of California, the Riverside metropolitan area is recovering from the housing bust. Home values are expected to jump 17.2% in the coming year, more than any other large city in the U.S. that Zillow considered. Like all other metro areas on this list, the unemployment rate in the Riverside area also has fallen, but remains comparatively high. The 10.8% unemployment rate in February was 1.8 percentage points lower than it was in the same month of 2012.
6. San Diego
Change in home value: 17.1%
Current home value: $396,800
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 8.8%
Between the market peak in the first quarter of 2006 and the third quarter of 2012, home prices fell 37%. But now home values have rebounded, increasing 17.1% from the first quarter of 2012 to the first quarter of 2013. This included a 5.5% increase in the past quarter alone. There were 3,769 home sales in February in the San Diego housing area, an increase of nearly 5% from the same month in 2012. The unemployment rate in San Diego was 8% in February, a significant improvement over the 9.4% back in 2012.
5. Sacramento, Calif.
Change in home value: 20.1%
Current home value: $241,600
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 15.6%
Home prices in Sacramento peaked in the fourth quarter of 2005, earlier than most metropolitan areas. Between the peak and the third quarter of 2012, home prices fell a painful 51.5%, which was among the largest drops in the entire country. Between the first quarter of 2013 and the same quarter in 2014, home values are expected to rise an additional 15.6%, more than any of the other largest 30 housing markets except for Riverside. The metro area's unemployment rate of 9.6% as of February was still considerably higher than the national rate of 7.7%.
4. San Francisco
Change in home value: 21.4%
Current home value: $563,200
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 10.5%
San Francisco's home values rose by 21% last year, with 6.4% growth between the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2013. This was among the largest quarterly increases of all large metro areas in the country. The median home value in San Francisco was $563,200 as of the first quarter of 2013. And the growth in home values is expected to continue—by an additional 10.5% in the next year. The unemployment rate in the San Francisco metropolitan area was 6% in February, a significant drop from the 7.5% in the same month last year.
3. San Jose, Calif.
Change in home value: 22.1%
Current home value: $676,100
Bottom in home value: Q3 2009
Forecast change in home value: 9.7%
The housing market in the San Jose metropolitan area bottomed out in the second quarter of 2009, significantly earlier than the other metro areas on this list. Since then, home prices have increased a great deal. As of the first quarter of this year, San Jose's median home value of $676,100 was more than any of the other largest metro areas in the country. The unemployment rate in the San Jose area has declined from 9.2% in February 2012 to just 7.6% in the first month of 2013. Construction jobs in the area grew by 12.3% from February 2012 to February 2013, likely a positive sign for the local housing market.
2. Las Vegas
Change in home value: 22.3%
Current home value: $138,800
Bottom in home value: Q1 2012
Forecast change in home value: 7.5%
Las Vegas's housing market has made a rapid comeback, with home values rising more than 7% in the most recent quarter alone. While values are on the rise again, it may take some time for the area to return to prerecession levels. Between the peak in the first quarter of 2006 and the third quarter of 2012, home prices plunged a whopping 59%. As the housing market has started to rebound, jobs have come back as well. Las Vegas's unemployment rate of 9.8% as of February—while still considerably higher than the national rate—was a significant improvement from the 12.1% unemployed in the same month of 2012 and the high of 14.6% back in July 2010.
1. Phoenix
Change in home value: 24.0%
Current home value: $165,600
Bottom in home value: Q3 2011
Forecast change in home value: 10.6%
No other metropolitan area's housing market has grown faster than Phoenix, where home values rose 24% over the past year. Between 2013 and 2014, home values are projected to rise an additional 10.6%. The unemployment rate in the Phoenix metro area was just 6.7% in February 2013, down a percentage point from the same month in 2012. Notably, construction jobs were up 8.2% from the previous year, likely an indicator of a more robust housing market.

Storage for dehydrated food and other dry goods?
Storage for dehydrated food and other dry goods?
After I fully dehydrate something, how should I store it? I made Zoe's Essene bread and some grawnola…should it stay in the fridge or can I leave it in tupperware in the cupboard?
What about raw nuts and grains? I have all of them in my cupboard right now…should they be in the fridge? The organic co-op doesn't refridgerate them so I assume that's the way to go. What about coconut oil? Obviously it'll be harder the colder it gets, but nonetheless…
If you did not make crackers out of the bread, it should be refrigerated. The grawnola can be left out for a good two weeks. Some do longer. I don't. Grains can be left out but keep in a cool area. I refrigerate all nuts and seeds. I refrigerate co-co-nut oil, once open.
Yes, your grawnola should keep fine outside the fridge. I've heard that if you refrigerate your raw granola, the moisture content will increase, and it will soften and go bad more quickly.
I always leave coconut oil unrefrigerated. It is highly anti-fungal, so it will take years supposedly before it will go bad. I tried refrigerating once, and it became so hard I couldn't use it for a couple hours. :)
Branwyn—If memory serves me correctly, you live in the Atlanta area; I'm between Atlanta and Montgomery, AL. It's humid enough here that I prefer to err on the side of sealing virtually everything. I generally vacuum seal anything that is not normally refrigerated and will not be consumed in 12 to 24 hours. I use my Food Saver and seal most things in wide mouth Mason jars.

Things I learned today
- Yellow jacket bees are carnivorous. They carry dead insects into their hive & eat them.
- Honeybees swarm around an entrance and you can actually smell honey in your house if they have nested in your walls.
- Bees in the walls sound like crumpled up cellophane when you hold your hear up to your wall.
- When you think there are only 50 or so bees nesting in your walls...multiply that number by about 200
- And last, but not least. It costs $171.23 to get rid of the Yellow Jackets nesting in your walls.
that sux. hope u can get them out soon.
08-16-2007, 05:12 PM #3Wowzas! You able to harvest any of that honey and sell it to cover their part of the rent?!?!?!
08-16-2007, 05:23 PM #4BEE CAREFUL!!! I'm so glad you got a professional to get rid of them! These old houses do have so many places for them to swarm!
My sister in laws sister was KILLED by swarming yellow jackets two years ago, in town! They were in the neighbors wall (went through a crack in the window sill) and swarmed at her when she was taking the garbage out.
08-16-2007, 05:40 PM #5Glad you got them out.
We never had bees in the walls, just birds above the door (in the siding on a brace above the door) every time we closed the door, nest material fell down. I have also had a bird build its nest in my door wreath! The baby birds would pop up and beg for food when ever anyone got near the door!.
08-16-2007, 05:45 PM #6Wow - I hope they have an easy time getting them out without too much structural damage. I remember when my mother finally discovered the wasps' nests, underneath the aluminum siding I think, in her house. They can multiply quite a lot before you even know they're there.
Using professionals is important, as my neighbor once learned. He decided to plug up a nest on his house himself, and while he was on vacation, they came out the other side and literally filled his back screen porch. We could see them from next door - scary.
08-16-2007, 05:54 PM #7Thankfully these were all yellow jackets. Had they been honeybees it would have cost twice that and they would have had to remove the honeycombs. Because they were yellow jackets, there's no need to remove whatever nest they have made in the walls. He sprayed some yucky stuff in the hole and they will all die as the foragers come back with their goodies.
As soon as they are all dead & not flying around, dh is going out there with a silicone gun & plugging up all the holes he can find
I don't mess with bees. My brother is deathly allergic to them, yellow jackets especially.
08-16-2007, 06:13 PM #8oh my gosh. That is so weird. Glad you got it taken care of. Sorry that it cost so much
08-16-2007, 07:52 PM #10I agree it's well worth the money but gosh ... I hope they dont try to reinfest your home next summer.
08-16-2007, 10:41 PM #11We had them in all four corners of our house at one time or another. We didn't call a professional to treat because we didn't have the money, but ex son in law used to be an exterminator with his dad. He told us what to do and it worked. When we tore the walls down during our remodel we found yellow jacket nests that were 18" w x 8 ft. tall. We also found out they will eat through plaster board as well as wood. They are nasty little buggers!
08-17-2007, 10:40 AM #13Glad you got rid of them, sorry you had the unexpected expense.
08-17-2007, 12:12 PM #14OMG!!! Id be terrified Heather. Im sorry about the exspense but Im glad your getting the professionals to do it. My hubby would be terrified, anything that crawls, flys etc in groups or even mice. He cant stand them , he's more scared then me. lol
08-17-2007, 02:13 PM #15Bees,wacky neighbors...you know how to throw a party Heather. Sorry you got stung in the wallet.

"CIEL provides critical legal support to indigenous peoples, which allows us to defend our rights at the international level."
—Adolfo Millabur Ñancuil, Coordinaciõn de Identidades Territoriales, Mapuche, Tirúa, Chile
CIEL uses and strengthens
international environmental law through the
conservation of biological diversity, mitigation of climate
change, protection of endangered species, and the control
and elimination of toxic chemicals.
We seek to advance
a responsible international framework for regulating
nanotechnologies as well as to protect our oceans and
the marine life they harbor.
You know that a CIEL attorney understands international law, knows how it relates to domestic law, especially here in the US, and understands comparative law so they know others who work on environmental issues using their legal skills in other legal jurisdictions. They share information. They share experience. This gives them real strength when arguing their positions.

Bunches of your/our favorite locals are playing the Ultraviolet Rock Show & Art Auction at Club Dada including: El Gato, Lovie, Bridges and Blinking Lights and The Felons.

And bring at least $5 to get in – all that money goes to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, so don't be stingy. -- Chelsea Ide

The importance of organizational structure for collaboration between sales and marketing
Le Meunier-FitzHugh, Kenneth and Piercy, Nigel F.. The importance of organizational structure for collaboration between sales and marketing. Journal of General Management, Vol.34 (Autumn ). ISSN 0306-3070

Effective cross-functional partnerships between sales and marketing functions are a priority for many organisations. Previous research proposes that organisational structure and/or location may be influential in creating greater collaboration between sales and marketing. It has been suggested that high performing organisations may structure their sales and marketing functions as single departments. This study tests both these propositions through a survey of managing directors and CEOs of large UK organisations. The results indicate that there is no relationship between structure or location of sales and marketing and collaboration between sales and marketing. Further, high performing organisations structure their sales and marketing functions both as separate departments and as single departments.

At Scallop imaging they have taken a truly new and innovative approach to the way the world should view cameras. For over 200 years the design of the camera has largely remained unchanged with a single lens and a single image capture point. This has meant that up until now if you wanted a wide angle view you must use a fish eye lens, which despite the best efforts by manufactures around the world usually means distorted edges. This is where Scallop imaging are doing things differently by distributing the imaging task among multiple smaller sensors and computationally combining their outputs in the camera itself. This approach means that if you want higher resolution, use more cameras focused on the same area, want truly panoramic shots, position multiple cameras whose images overlap in the processing unit.
One thing they have kept with tradition in is providing excellent customer support with a website that boasts a fully featured FAQ section along with a documents library for all their products. They also have a friendly customer support team ready to take your call and offer you pre and post-sale service that is second to none.

Ipso facto
Look up ipso facto in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. |
Ipso facto is a Latin phrase, directly translated as "by the fact itself,"[1] which means that a certain phenomenon is a direct consequence, a resultant effect, of the action in question, instead of being brought about by a previous action. It is a term of art used in philosophy, law, and science. An example in law is money laundering: the act is not ipso facto illegal because it is an exchange but is done as a cover for something else, so the act puts the actions of an individual in question. A common English idiom with a similar meaning is "in and of itself". Compare also "by itself" and "per se".
Aside from its technical uses, it occurs frequently in literature, particularly in scholarly addenda: e.g., "Faustus had signed his life away, and was, ipso facto, incapable of repentance" (re: Christopher Marlowe, The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus) or "These prejudices are rooted in the idea that every tramp ipso facto is a blackguard" (re: George Orwell, Down and Out in Paris and London).
In religion[edit]
Ipso facto denotes the automatic character of the loss of membership in a religious body by someone guilty of a specified action.[2] Within the Roman Catholic Church, the phrase latae sententiae is more commonly used than ipso facto with regard to ecclesiastical penalties such as excommunication. It indicates that the effect follows even if no verdict (in Latin, sententia) is pronounced by an ecclesiastical superior or tribunal.

So the lesson learned in these last two issues is that Christos Gage needs to be writing Hercules more regularly. Herc simply steals the show in these two issues. I think I prefer him in this issue over last month, simply because I'm not reminded of his temporary loss of powers. I'm not sure Herc really belongs as an instructor for the Academy, but man, he's a great guest lecturer, and I would be thrilled to see Gage write him again.
There's a fun scene where Tigra takes on the mind-wiped Sebastian Shaw, and he comments about how tough she is. I appreciate that Gage is repeatedly having his villains comment on Tigra's coolness, but eventually she's got to show it on the page. I'm not saying she needs to beat up Dr. Doom, but maybe a win over Kraven the Hunter or some other B-tier villain would be better than having B-level guys say "yeah, she's pretty good."
Sebastian Shaw is another problem for me. I'm simply not interested in him as a mind-wiped, confused man. He's a great, classic villain, and giving this blank dude two whole issues seems like too much. Especially since his actions this month make last month's fighting meaningless.
Tom Grummett's art cracks me up. I've always enjoyed his art, but there is a splash page in the open of the book with a teenage girl with a bare bottom. I mean, I don't know who that blue girl is (Transonic, maybe?) but I swear she is not wearing any clothes. I can't believe Marvel is OK with a naked teenage girl on the X-Men!
Plot-wise, this is about as thing a crossover as they come. There are some nice character moments (as always). Gage really knows the Marvel U, past and present. He's got a great handle on his characters. But these constant ancillary tie-ins have got to stop!

"Every time I turn around, someone else is wearing my panties. It's like they have a life of their own," complains Logan LaBrent in this lighthearted couples vid.
Seems LaBrent's panties bestow good luck on anyone who wears them, which inevitably turns into a decent sex scene. The fact that the panties don't seem to ever hit a washing machine is hygienically disturbing, but we'll let that go. Best of the five scenes is Charlene Aspen and Joel Lawrence in an energetic mish and doggie; an anal between LaBrent and Dale DaBone is worth a look as well.
Unthreatening, average sex and silly plot makes this one decent filler for couples.

US 3987851 A Abstract A process for producing shale oil by circulating hot fluid through a rubble-containing cavern within a subterranean oil shale which contains water-soluble mineral is improved by burning a carbonaceous residue left within one cavity to produce hot fluid for operating power devices and also pyrolyzing the oil shale in a different cavity.
Claims(6) 1. In a process for producing shale oil from a subterranean oil shale formation that contains water-soluble material by forming a cavity within the oil shale formation, leaching water-soluble mineral to form a permeable oil shale rubble within the cavity, and circulating hot fluid through the cavity to pyrolyze the permeable oil shale rubble and recover shale oil, the improvement which comprises:
forming at least two cavities; leaching water-soluble minerals by circulating aqueous liquid which is hotter than the surrounding oil shale through at least two cavities to form a relatively hot permeable oil shale rubble in each cavity; initiating an underground combustion and advancing a combustion front through at least one cavity containing a permeable oil shale rubble or a pyrolyzed oil shale rubble that contains carbonaceous material; circulating hot combustion products composed mainly of the oxides of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen formed by said underground combustion through the permeable oil shale rubble in at least one of said cavities; and recovering shale oil from at least one fluid produced from at least one of said cavities. 2. The process of claim 1 in which said circulation of hot combustion products is initiated while the permeable oil shale rubble being treated is hotter than the surrounding oil shale.
3. The process of claim 1 in which some of the hot fluid formed by the underground combustion is conveyed to at least one hot fluid-operated device in a surface location near the subterranean oil shale formation.
4. The process of claim 1 in which at least one underground combustion is conducted in a cavity in which the permeable oil shale rubble has been previously pyrolyzed by injecting hot fluid that was formed by an underground combustion in a different cavity.
5. The process of claim 1 in which the underground combustion in at least one cavity is supported by injecting a combustion-supporting gas containing a mixture of oxygen and water to provide a hot fluid consisting essentially of a mixture of steam and shale oil hydrocarbon combustion products and said mixture is used as the hot combustion products circulated through oil shale rubble.
6. The process of claim 1 in which the liquid remaining in said cavities after the leaching of water-soluble minerals is displaced by injecting a substantially inert gaseous fluid so that at least most of the temperature attained during the leaching is retained within the cavity prior to initiating an underground combustion or pyrolysis of the permeable oil shale rubble within the cavity.
Description The invention relates to producing shale oil and related mineral materials from subterranean deposits of oil shale. Numerous subterranean oil shales are mixed with water-soluble minerals. Such deposits comprise substantially impermeable, kerogen-containing, earth formations from which shale oil can be produced by a hot fluid-induced pyrolysis or thermal conversion of the organic solids to fluids. A series of patents typified by the T. N. Beard, A. M. Papadopoulos and R. C. Ueber U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,739,851; 3,741,306; 3,753,594; 3,759328; and 3,759,574 describe procedures for utilizing the water-soluble minerals to form rubble-containing caverns in which the oil shale is exposed to a circulating hot aqueous fluid that converts the kerogen to shale oil while removing enough solid material to expand the cavern and expose additional oil shale. This invention relates to producing shale oil. At least two cavities are formed within a subterranean oil shale deposit which contains water-soluble mineral. The soluble mineral in and around each cavity is leached with an aqueous fluid hotter than the surrounding oil shale, to form a permeable oil shale rubble within each cavity. An underground combustion is initiated and a combustion front is advanced through the permeable oil shale rubble in at least one cavity. The hot fluid produced by the combustion is circulated through the permeable oil shale rubble in at least one cavity, preferably while that rubble is still hotter than the surrounding oil shale. And, shale oil is recovered from fluid produced from at least one cavity. FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of an oil shale formation containing a cavity being used for a conventional type of underground pyrolysis for shale oil recovery. FIGS. 2 and 3 are schematic illustrations of an oil shale formation containing cavities being used in various stages of the present invention. The present invention is, at least in part, premised on the following discovery. In a subterranean oil shale which contains water-soluble minerals, the relative magnitudes of permeabilities, flow rates, and hydrocarbon residues which can be feasibly formed or utilized, are such that a significant saving in the energy required to produce the shale oil can be effected by a serial burning and pyrolyzing. When at least two cavities are formed and leached so that they contain permeable oil shale rubble and the rubble in one cavity is pyrolyzed to produce shale oil, an underground combustion of the residual carbon left in that rubble can form the hot fluid to be used for pyrolyzing the oil shale rubble in a different cavity. Such combustion products can provide enough heat and hot fluid to also operate power-driven compressors, pumps and the like devices in the vicinity of the subterranean oil shale. The serial burning and pyrolyzing also avoids a disadvantage that is inherent in a conventional underground combustion-heated pyrolysis of a permeable oil shale rubble. A conventional process is illustrated by FIG. 1. After an underground combustion is initiated, a combustion front is advanced by injecting a combustion-supporting fluid, such as air or a mixture of oxygen and air in through conduit. Concurrently a fluid, such as a mixture of shale oil and low BTU gas (mainly combustion products) are outflowed through conduit 2. As known to those skilled in the art, a cavity 3 can readily be formed and leached so that its solids content is primarily a permeable rubble of oil shale 4. In such a cavity, an inflowing combustion-supporting gas can cause a combustion front 6 to advance through the rubble. The hot gas formed by the combustion pyrolyzes the oil shale in a region downstream from the combustion. This forms a pyrolysis front 7 and a region of pyrolyzed oil shale 8 ahead of the combustion front. The combustion burns the carbonaceous residue left by the pyrolysis and leaves a zone of depleted oil shale solids 9 behind the combustion front. An inherent disadvantage of such a combustion-heated pyrolysis process is the tendency for the hot gas formed by the combustion to channel (or flow preferentially) through the most permeable portions of the rubble of oil shale. This causes oil or incompletely pyrolyzed oil shale (or kerogen) to remain unpyrolyzed until is is reached by and consumed in the advancing combustion front (where most of the organic material is converted to oxides of carbon, hydrogen or nitrogen, or other components of a low BTU gas). The present process avoids such a combustion of shale oil raw materials. In addition, any oil shale that is initially bypassed is heated by the inflowing hot gas passing near it. Thus, any bypassed oil shale tends to be subsequently pyrolyzed without being destroyed by combustion. As used herein "oil shale" refers to a substantially impermeable aggregation of inorganic solids and a solid predominately hydrocarbon-solvent-insoluble organic material known as "kerogen". "Bitumen" refers to the hydrocarbon-solvent-soluble organic material that may be initially present in an oil shale or may be formed by a thermal conversion or pyrolysis of kerogen. "Shale oil" refers to gaseous and/or liquid hydrocarbon materials (which may contain trace amounts of nitrogen, sulfur, oxygen, or the like) that can be obtained by distilling or pyrolyzing or extracting organic materials from an oil shale. "Water-soluble inorganic mineral" refers to halites or carbonates, such as the alkali metal chlorides, bicarbonates or carbonates, which compounds or minerals exhibit a significant solubility (e.g., at least about 10 grams per 100 grams of solvent) in generally neutral aqueous liquids (e.g., those having a pH of from about 5 to 8) and/or heat-sensitive compounds or minerals, such as nahcolite, dawsonite, trona, or the like, which are naturally water-soluble or are thermally converted at relatively mild temperatures (e.g., 500� to 700� F) to materials which are water-soluble. The term "water-soluble-material-containing oil shale" refers to an oil shale that contains or is mixed with at least one water-soluble inorganic mineral, in the form of lenses, layers, nodules, finely-divided dispersed particles, or the like. A "cavern" or "cavity" (within a subterranean oil shale formation) refers to a relatively solids-free opening or void in which the solids content is less than about 60% (preferably less than about 50%) and substantially all of the solids are pieces which are surrounded by fluid, are relatively movable, and are substantially free of the lithostatic pressures caused by the weight of the overlying rocks. In the present process, the cavities in an oil shale can readily be formed by conventional procedures. A small cavity is formed by drilling a borehole. It can be enlarged by under-reaming, solution-mining, hydraulic or explosive fracturing, or the like operations. Where desirable, acids and/or viscous fluids can be utilized to dissolve and/or entrain solids to increase the volume of solid-free space within a cavity. The solution-mining of water-soluble minerals by circulating hot aqueous fluids through an initially relatively small cavity (such as an under-reamed portion of a borehole) is a particularly preferred procedure for concurrently expanding the volume of a cavity and leaching the water-soluble minerals to form a permeable oil shale rubble within the cavity. The T. N. Beard, P. vanMeurs U.S. Pat. No. 3,779,602 describes a particularly suitable process for solution-mining bicarbonate minerals by circulating hot water at a pressure that is optimized for enhancing the growth of a permeable rubble-containing cavity. The L. H. Towell and J. R. Brew U.S. Pat. No. 3,792,902 describes such a solution-mining process in which plugging due to mineral precipitation is minimized by mixing an aqueous diluent with downhole portions of the out-flowing fluid. In general, the solution-mining fluid can be substantially any aqueous liquid (which is preferably slightly acidic or neutral) that tends to dissolve the water-soluble mineral without damaging the well conduits. Such a fluid is preferably circulated at a temperature, of from about 200� F to 400� F, that exceeds the temperature of the adjacent portions of the subterranean oil shale formation. Where the cavity in the oil shale formation is initially a substantially vertical section of a well borehole, the leaching fluid is advantageously injected into the cavity at a point near the bottom, while the mineral-laden solution is withdrawn from a point near the top. The points of injection and withdrawal can be reversed and the flow rate can be cyclically changed, both in direction and rate. The leaching is preferably continued to provide a cavity that contains a permeable oil shale rubble and has a suitable volume. As the leaching fluid contacts the oil shale in and along the walls of the cavity, soluble materials are dissolved from the contacted portions. This imparts permeability. Where the distribution of the water-soluble mineral is non-uniform, the leaching-out of streaks or layers may cause the collapse of chunks of oil shale that become more permeable as the leaching continues. Along the walls, the rate of leaching tends to decrease with increases in the size of the cavity. In general, the mineral-leaching should be continued until the cavity radius is on the order of 40 to 50 feet or more, preferably at least 100 feet. The cavity vertical height should be at least about 200 feet, and preferably at least about 500 feet. The average permeability of the pieces of leached oil shale formation within the cavity and along the innermost portions of the cavity walls should be at least about 1 and preferably 10 or more darcies (1,000 to 10,000 or more millidarcies). The minerals dissolved during the leaching operation can, of course, be recovered (by means known to those skilled in the art) and can provide valuble by-products to the recovery of shale oil. In general, during the leaching process some (but relatively small amounts of) shale oil is entrained with and can be recovered from the fluid circulated to effect the leaching operation. The oil shale kerogen in the permeable rubble left in the cavity by the leaching process is pyrolyzed by circulating a relatively hot pyrolyzing fluid through the cavity. The circulation flow path can be upward (in at the bottom and out at the top) or downward, or alternated between the two, and the flow rate can be varied or reversed, as desired. The pyrolyzing fluid can be gaseous or liquid (at the pressure within the cavity) and should have a temperature exceeding that of the surrounding oil shale formation, such as a temperature of from about 450� F to 1000� F. The pyrolyzing fluid can be composed of normally liquid or gaseous components which (by means of thermal, chemical and/or solvent action) interact with the organic components (primarily kerogen) of the oil shale and dissolve or entrain shale hydrocarbon materials. Suitable pyrolyzing fluids comprise steam, or mixtures of steam and hydrocarbons, or hydrocarbon combustion products, hot aqueous fluids, and mixtures of such fluids with liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons or the product of their combustion, liquid or gaseous oil solvents or the like. FIG. 2 shows the first stage of a preferred operation of the present process. At least two wells, spaced apart by at least several hundred feet, are drilled into an oil shale formation 11. The exemplified formation is 500 feet thick, contains about 25% by weight of nahcolite in a relatively uniform distribution, and has a kerogen richness of about 25 gallons per ton by Fischer assay. Well 12 is drilled substantially through the formation and equipped with an inflow conduit 13 opening near the bottom of the formation and outflow conduit 14 opening near the top of the formation. Relatively fresh water at a temperature of 300� F is injected through conduit 13 while the resulting solution is produced through conduit 14. This leaches the soluble minerals from the oil shale exposed within and along the wall of the borehole. It is expected that with a flow rate of about 10,000 barrels per day, in about 4 years such a circulation can expand the borehole into cavity 16 having a diameter of about 200 feet and a height of about 500 feet. Such a cavity will be filled with a permeable oil shale rubble having an average permeability in the order of 1,000 millidarcies. The hot aqueous solution that fills the cavity at the end of the leaching operation is preferably displaced by a gas such as a recycle gas. The solution-displacing gas preferably has a temperature high enough and/or a heat capacity low enough so that no significant proportion of the heat imparted to the oil shale rubble in the cavity is lost in heating the inflowing fluid. In the next step, an underground combustion is initiated in and advanced through the oil shale rubble in such cavity. This can be done by a conventional combustion-pyrolysis process of the type illustrated in FIG. 1. The oil in a portion of the permeable rubble 4 near the top of the cavity is heated to substantially its ignition temperature. A combustion-supporting mixture of oxygen-containing gas, such as compressed air, is injected into the heated oil shale rubble to initiate an underground combustion. As shown in FIG. 1, the continued air injection advances a combustion front 6 down through the mass of rubble. The injection rates and pressures are preferably controlled to maintain a combustion front temperature in the order of 800� to 900� F. The hot gas produced by the combustion moves ahead of the front and pyrolyzes the oil shale that it contacts. The pyrolysis front 7 tends to move along ahead of the combustion front while leaving a zone of pyrolyzed oil shale which contains a carbonaceous material residue that serves as the fuel for the combustion. The combustion tends to leave a mass of pyrolyzed and burned inorganic material (spent rubble) 9 having a relatively low permeability (in the order of 10 to 50 millidarcies). In such a down-flow underground combustion pyrolysis, the shale oil components are withdrawn from near the bottom of the cavity. It has now been discovered that even if both the pyrolysis and combustion fronts maintain a piston-like advancement (with substantially no by-passing) a significant amount of available heat energy would be wasted. If the hot gas pyrolysis front 7 moves throughout the cavity about 80% of the Fischer assay oil might be recovered. This would leave behind 0.4 MMB (million barrels) of shale oil in the form of hydrocarbons, carbonaceous residue or heat. The amount left is 0.656 barrels of liquid fuel equivalent (LFE) per barrel of oil recovered. Since the energy requirements for the leaching and hot gas pyrolysis are only 0.45 barrel LFE per barrel of oil recovered by the hot gas pyrolysis, the amount of fuel left is more than enough to supply the energy required to conduct the leaching and pyrolyzing. The 0.45 barrel LFE per barrel of oil recovered includes the energy for leaching, heating hot gas and running all powered machines, like compressors, etc. An equivalent number for the conventional oil shale process is 0.59 barrel LFE per barrel of oil recovered. The latter (energy) requirement for the combustion process is at least partly due to the fact that larger compressors are required. FIG. 3 shows a stage of the present process in which the fuel left by a pyrolysis in one cavity is being used to conduct a hot gas pyrolysis in another cavity. Cavity 17 has been formed and leached so that it is filled with a permeable oil shale rubble 4 which is hotter than the surrounding oil shale formation (e.g., by the procedure described in connection with cavity 16 in FIG. 2). A hot gas, which can be a mixture of shale oil and low BTU gas produced by an in situ combustion process of the type shown in FIG. 1, is injected into the top of the cavity through conduit 18 while shale oil-containing fluid is produced through conduit 19. Such a hot gas is preferably injected at a temperature of at least about 450� F (preferably 800� F) which is hotter than the oil shale rubble within the cavity. Where the hot gas is produced by a combustion front preceded by a pyrolysis front (as shown in FIG. 1) at least a significant portion of the shale oil that is mixed with the hot gas is preferably removed prior to injecting the gas into cavity 17. Such a shale oil separation can be effected by means known to those skilled in the art. The hot gas injection into cavity 17 causes the pyrolysis from 7 to advance through the cavity while leaving a mass of pyrolyzed oil shale 8. Cavity 21, which was initially filled with pyrolyzed oil shale rubble 8, is a residual fuel-containing cavity of the type that cavity 17 will become when its pyrolysis has been completed. In a particularly preferred procedure for conducting the present invention at least 3 cavities are formed and leached to form permeable oil shale rubble-containing cavities such as cavity 16 (in FIG. 2). One such cavity is treated by a combination combustion-pyrolysis of the type applied to cavity 3 (in FIG. 1) to provide a source of hot gas for a pyrolysis as shown in cavity 17 (in FIG. 3). The resultant pyrolyzed oil shale rubble is then burned as shown in cavity 21 (FIG. 3) i.e., by initiating an underground combustion and advancing a combustion front 6 through the cavity to provide hot gas to be used in the pyrolysis, e.g., in cavity 17. A significant proportion of the hot gas produced from the combustion in cavity 21 can advantabeously be divided and supplied to a power plant. As known to those skilled in the art the products of a combustion such as that shown in cavity 21, are composed mainly of the oxides of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen and contain relatively small proportions of hydrocarbons or other contaminates. The pressure and temperature of such combustion products can be adjusted by controlling the composition and pressure of the combustion-supporting gas injected through conduit 24 and the backflow pressure applied to production conduit 22. A division of a combustion gas stream so that about 44% by volume is injected into cavity 17 while about 56% is transported to the power plant is generally suitable. The combustion-supporting gas supplied to cavity 21 can advantageously be a mixture of air and a recycle gas that is derived from portions of a previously produced combustion product that has been used in a power plant and/or has operated power-driven devices. Such a recycle gas can also comprise portions of the non-hydrocarbon components of the pyrolysis reaction products of a pyrolysis such as is shown in cavity 17. In one embodiment of the present invention the hot gas used to effect the pyrolysis reaction in cavity 17 consists essentially of steam which was generated in a cavity in which an underground combustion is conducted. The steam can be formed by continuously or intermittently mixing water with the combustion-supporting gas supplied to cavity such as cavity 21. This provides a so-called wet combustion as the water is carried into combustion front 6 and is there converted to steam. Alternatively, or additionally, the steam can be formed by continuously or intermittently injecting steam into the top of cavity 21 through an additional conduit (not shown). It has been found that the spent oil shale left by leaching, pyrolyzing and then burning decreases in bulk volume to an extent that tends to create a void in the top of a cavity such as cavity 21. Water can be injected into such a void space through a spray nozzle or sprinkler device. The injected water will turn into steam when it reaches a hotter part of the cavity. Where steam is used as the hot gas to effect the pyrolysis in cavity 17 the carbonaceous residue that remains is sufficient to support a subsequent combustion that will supply the hot gas for the pyrolysis in a different cavity. At the completion of a pyrolysis with steam it is estimated that approximately 0.48 MMB of LFE will be left in a cavity (i.e., the equivalent of 0.96 barrels of LFE per barrel of oil recovered). In such a steam pyrolysis the flow within the cavity can be either an upflow or downflow. Following a steam pyrolysis the cavity is preferably pressureized with an inert gas, such as recycle gas, to displace any water or carbonate solution that remains. Patent Citations

This prospective series of results and complications of coronary arteriography from the Registry of the Society for Cardiac Angiography and Interventions is the largest ever reported. Since the initial report published in 1982, the results of coronary artery surgery and angioplasty have improved and therefore older and more symptomatic patients are referred for coronary arteriography. More patients are now studied by the femoral approach, and the major complications of the techniques are similar. Despite studying older and higher-risk patients, the complications are remarkably similar to those reported in the older series. Because of the sicker patients being studied, it is probably unlikely that the complication rate will decrease further in the future. The Society for Cardiac Angiography and Interventions will continue its Registry to follow complication rates of both established and new procedure. |

Anniversary Event Provides Community Education About Cosmetic Procedures
Robin Fleck, M.D, hosted a community wide event last month to celebrate the sixth anniversary of Body Oasis Laser Aesthetics in Prescott, Arizona. New and existing patients were treated to music, food and refreshments, as well as a front row seat to the inner workings of some of the most sought after cosmetic treatments around.
Prescott, AZ (PRWEB) September 06, 2011
Body Oasis Laser Aesthetics staff and founder Dr. Robin Fleck celebrated six years at their Prescott location in August, welcoming local residents to enjoy live entertainment as well as learn about newly available alternatives to cosmetic surgery, such as the Active FX CO2 fractional laser treatment, new techniques for injecting dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation, and recent additions to the Botox market including Dysport and Xeomin.
Alumni of the Active FX laser resurfacing were on hand to answer questions from those interested in the procedure. âœIt is gratifying to see our alumni participate in these events,â remarked Jan Gillum, office manager of Southwest Skin and Cancer Institute. âœWe have before and after pictures to demonstrate the radical improvement theyâve experienced and they have their own story to tell.â The alumni shared details about the procedure and the recovery process. âœShowcasing our patients allows everyone to see the amazing results we are seeing with these new laser procedures while providing realistic expectations about the healing involved,â notes Deirdre Morris, administrative assistant for Southwest Skin and Cancer Institute.
The reception started with an informative lecture by Dr. Fleck outlining the cosmetic procedures offered at all three offices, followed by a live demonstration of a Dysport treatment on an audience volunteer. The live injection gave the audience the opportunity to see how painless and quick these procedures are as well as provided an opportunity to ask Dr. Fleck and the patient questions about the injections as they were taking place. âœI was surprised how fast the treatment was and that I had no bruising or pain afterward,â remarked Jane Raimondo, lucky recipient of the Dysport injections. âœI would recommend this to everyone.â Those that hadnât experienced a Dysport treatment first hand were amazed at the different areas that could be addressed including frown lines, crowâs feet, upper lip wrinkles and sagging jowls. âœThis is why we call it the â˜lunchtime liquid face liftâ,â stated Dr. Fleck. âœIt takes less than a half hour, and we will give you back 5 years.â
Representatives from various medical and laser companies were also present at the event. Medicis, the company responsible for dermal fillers such as Perlane and Restylane, and laser representatives from Candela and Lumenis were on hand to explain how their products and treatments work. âœFor the clients we see, this is the perfect event to get some solid information on treatments they may be considering, but donât know enough about,.â noted Maureen Brogan, laser technician at Body Oasis medical spa. âœThe importance of having these experienced reps at an event like this is so they can speak to the aesthetic consumer about their products and how they can work for clientsâ specific issues.âœ
After the lecture and demonstration, the guests were invited to tour the facility and take in the multitude of services offered, from varicose vein treatment to nonsurgical cosmetic rejuvenation.
At Body Oasis, guests were treated to free Visia computerized skin analysis to see the actual sun damage that can be accrued living in the Southwest. The Visia takes three photographs of your face and can demonstrate pore size, wrinkles, UV damage, oils in the skin, and overall skin tone when compared to peers the same age. A Visia skin analysis is used at Body Oasis as a starting tool to find out what a clientâs problems and concerns are, and then a treatment plan is developed to address those specific issues.
Complimentary test spots with their state-of-the-art Light Sheer Duet permanent hair reduction laser was also provided to show how painless laser treatments have become. This laser is equipped with a larger handpiece that allows for treatment of an entire back in fifteen minutes.
Dr. Fleck hosted a slide show featuring information about the causes and treatment of varicose veins and spider veins. At Vein Specialties, Dr.Fleck provides the latest advances in laser treatment of varicose veins including endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and sclerofoam injections. Potential clients learned that most insurance companies cover these procedures, which require no downtime. Patients can return to work the same day.
The reception was a platform not only to demonstrate the ease and affordability of the cosmetic and laser treatments administered at our offices, but also to educate the guests on the proper way to protect their skin against sun damage. Dr. Fleck also consulted patients about the harmful effects of using over the counter sunscreens and sun blocks. âœPeople gain a false sense of security when using sunscreens,â Dr. Fleck noted. âœThey arenât 100% protected from harmful UV-A radiation yet they tend to spend more time in the sun when using sunscreens. This leads to chronic conditions including rosacea, premature aging and skin cancer.â
The practice carries a fresh vitamin C serum that when used along with vitamin E lotion provides a full spectrum of coverage from UVA and UVB rays. âœPeople spend too much money on media hype and have difficulty sorting out fact from creative marketing,â said Maureen Brogan. âœThat is why we educate our clients on proper skin care. We carry products that are fresh, affordable, and work. Antioxidant serums not only help protect against the sun, but can reverse early skin cancers, age spots, fine wrinkles, and skin laxity.â
If you were not able to participate in this event, call the helpful staff at either of these locations (928) 778-0808, and set up your free consultation today.

Norma Stitz, real name Annie Hawkins-Turner, was born in Atlanta, Georgia. She attended Jackson State University and got a BSW (Bachelor of Social Work). Norma began sending in pictures to publications in the early 1990's and was finally published in 1994. Treated mainly as a curiousity, the magazines soon learned that there are many men out there that really do love big tits like this and she began appearing in more mag's.
