Cajamarca-worth it?
Hi. Yes, Cajamarca is well worth a two or three day visit. It's one of the better preserved northern andean cities and there's lots to see. If you're thinking of February, then you'll be there for Carnavel, which is well worth it. Very festive. One thing you should know is that while it's summer on the coast it's winter in the mountains, so that probably means some rain and cold weather at night. Something to keep in mind. Also, given that there are some difficulties between the local population and the Newmont mining corporation, there have been roadblocks and stuff like that. You wouldn't really want to identify youself as a U.S. citizen. Whatever you decide, good luck on your trip. Jaime

Jokes by Bill Cosby
Bill Cosby on Natural Child Birth
Natural child birth means no drugs will be administered into the female's body during the delivery. The father can have all he wants.
Bill Cosby on Child Psychology
I graduated from Temple University. Physical education major with a child psychology minor. Which means if you ask me a question about a child's behavior, I will tell you to tell the child to take a lap.
Bill Cosby on Cocaine
I said to a guy, "Tell me, what is it about cocaine that makes it so wonderful?" And the guy said, "Well, it intensifies your personality." And I said, "Yes, but what if you're an asshole?"
Bill Cosby on His Mother
My children think my mother is the most wonderful woman on the face of the Earth. And I keep telling my children, "That's not the same woman I grew up with. You're looking at an old person who's trying to get into heaven now."

I agree with this. You might also want to research how they treat horses in order to make those estrogen creams.
I was going to say the same thing. I agree with others who suggested just leaving it alone.
Amazing! Glad it worked out. Thanks for the update.

Tea Tree Oil 5 0

[YEA] Tea tree oil for hidranitis.
Approval Ratings
[YEA] Tea tree oil for hidranitis.
[YEA] I was just diagnosed with HS this year after dealing with what I thought were ingrown hairs in the groin area for over 12 years and I'm only 26 and healthy otherwise. My Dr. prescribed me antibiotics but when I lost my job and health insurance I couldn't afford the medicine. I didn't want to be on meds for the rest of my life & my body responds much better to NATURAL Remedies. Around that time, I also had persistent dandruff, the dermatologist prescribed me a medicated oil treatment that did absolutely nothing to help.
I purchased some TEA TREE OIL from WALMART for about $4.00 to mix with my shampoo to treat the dandruff. After reading a few posts on here, I used it on a particularly large, painful sore that would NOT open or drain after weeks.
I saw results WITHIN HOURS. No exaggeration, within HOURS the "cyst" had gone down in size noticably. By the second day, it had shrunk nearly 1/2 of its original size and pain was nearly 80% gone. I'm on my third day and I can't even feel it. I had no drainage, no pain and it is nearly gone. All I did was saturate the tip of a cotton swab (the kind you clean your ears with) with Tea Tree Oil and rub it gently onto the area. I covered the surrounding area for good measure. I did it twice per day and the results are amazing!
I read another post about the connection between HS and Yeast. At first I was really skeptical because my Dr. told me that the disorder is caused by inflammation of sweat glands which "traps" in bacteria which is naturally occuring in the body. Once it gets trapped, she explained, it festers and grows out of control and gets infected, causing these sores. But after seeing how well the Tea Tree Oil worked, I'm wondering if that "bacteria" she mentioned was a generalization and could include the naturally occuring yeast on/in? our skin? Tea Tree Oil, aside from moisturizing is an Anti-Fungal. It is helping with my dandruff, and it worked miracles on my HS sores. So, I wonder if there is not a connection.
I also saw some people treating it with a popular homeopathic yeast infection treatment. I used that same kind for a long time but never thought to monitor the sores with its use. I may start that up and see if it helps.
With all of this information, it makes sense that certain foods, stress and illness could cause a flare up of HS. It could be that those foods, situations, etc are causing inflammation which is trapping the naturally occurring bacteria in our bodies and BAM! Sores all over the place.

03/29/2013Giving Tea Tree Oil a chance...
Dealing with what I think appears to be HS?
Background...Its my first Outbreak and it began 1 week ago. I have 4 sores that look like described text book symptoms of HS under my breast. So painful. Began very suddenly. I am being treated by my GP for what he calls a bacterial infection from a yeast infection. Makes no sense to me? I have a a compromised immune system from drugs (Remicade) for Anklousing Spondilitis (a "Spondyloarthropathy Autoimmune disorder - under the same diseases as Crohns, psoriasis and reactive arthritis). I am a 50 yr old female. I have had AS since I was 13 yrs old.
For the past 5 days I have been using topical anti-fungal creams, hydrocortisone perscription creams (Lamasil) as well as a oral antibiotic - I always seem to be on antibiiotics....
TONIGHT...I was scared because I notice the first sore that appeared is now draining pus in a weird fashion -like its coming out a tube or a vein???? So began my internet quest.... here I am.....
NOW....I have been to this site before, CURED my sons bad acne (took him off the dreaded Acutane) with ACV!!! Thx! ..... So now going to try Tea Tree Oil and Tumeric? I have faith.... I will let you know the results in the morning. ( I havent slept in 5 nights from the burning pain.... even called in sick 3 days! )
WILL POST RESULTS TOMMOROW.....nite.Replied by Gavin

04/01/2013It sounds like HS. If when they clear up they are a little mauve in colour and still very sensitive if you press on them, then seem to flare up after a few weeks and eject some pus and then go through the same cycle again. Then when pressing on then it feels like theirs a little tunnel. It seems that unless you press all the goo out when they are supporating they wont clear up totally. If you get some electrical tape, and make a patch of clean tissue, put a blob of EVC. On the patch and tape it up over the sore. After about an hour you will become aware of the sore, this is when the ECV. Is penetrating. Keep this up for about a week and then anytime it seems to start to get over sensitive. The ECV. is a gentle anti bacterial anti fungal and anti viral but the main thing about it is that it penetrates even when there is no break on the skin surface, and slowly disposes of the infection.Replied by Gavin

[YEA] I had to have a sulfa-based antibiotic to cure my last swollen node on my groin. After wearing tight synthetic workout undershorts for several hours (which I won't do again), I had another case in the same groin area and felt the swollen gland grow to the size of a nickle. I read someone's suggestion on this site that Tea Tree Oil may work and I applied it to the swollen node three times a day and it has gone away in 5 days. I am thrilled. I suppose catching it early helps. I purchased Tea Tree Oil from a beauty supply.Posted by Tina (Indianapolis, IN) on 12/28/2007
[YEA] I was Diagnosed with hidradenitis July 06. I have had terrible breakouts in the groin area from my bikini area to my anal area. I have tried everything to stop the breakouts, even bathing 3 or more times a day nothing has worked. Recently I went to a local natural food store and read a natural remedy book were it stated Tea Tree oil, pure tea tree oil will take out the staph from boils and soothe the pain. I tried it several times so far so good. It has a scent of eucalyptus and the same drying action like alcohol. So far it worksReplied by T3

01/04/2009I will try this. My cysts go on for 20 years all over and each has a different name and none have a cure. I either have to wait til it comes to a point (huge then) so dr. can cut it or it busts by itself and is a bloody mess. Not to mention the pain. I had 3 in my breast all come to a point at once after a mamorgram, which never showed them, but the ultrasound did. So for any of these cysts, I need answers, deoderant, shaver, soaps all been tried and no relief. No insurance now and when they come I'm on my own. Few times dr. wouldn't even open it and drain it, so pain, pain to my toes on the side of the cyst. I looked bruised or blackened on the ones that have reawaken lately. Antibiotic is hard to get, the dr's don't believe it helps me, but one did, plus I said they make me exremely nausaus and they said it was all in my head. I told them they're crazy,i get so much pain and it gets so big, i can't go to work, what more proof you need? I get so sick to my stomach, headeaches, radiation of pain on the entire side and can't move sometimes. Just need some help. Apple cider baths did not help, baking soda relieved pain, but stung the other unopened one and bactraban seemed the best, but is a prescription, and may eventually flair up anyway til it needs to break. They all do this and I can't take it anymore. Even my clothes are getting ruined. I had some removed and they come back 1/2 inch from the last one. Like I'm 1 big cyst with a head on top. Let you know if tea tree oil helps. Also tried the diet thing too, over 20 years of this, one thing right dr.'s say, NO CURE. Cut, cut, drain, scar, scar, cut, cut. Been there don't that. I was only 19 then. I can cry/I do.Replied by Evelyn

03/17/2009Hi, I had HS for 25 yrs or more. Didn't have name for it until 8 yrs ago. Try many different things, nothing work. I use dial (bar) anti-septic soap but sometimes in the summer, I use liquid soap and mix with tea tree oil. It cheaper than buy it at the health food stoe. The only thing I found to help with the pain is Emla, it a cream I get from my doctor, it has lidocaine & prilocaine. It come in genertic, also. Use it only on my real ones. Help to numb the pain some! Also use a Draw Out Salve to help bring it to surface. It main ingredent is green soap. Hope these suggestions might help! Ev.Replied by Sonia

02/15/2015Tea tree oil does nothing for HS, there is a new clinical trial that proves it does nothing, your dermatologists dont know nothing obviously... Ask him to send you for humira injections, I have been in remission for a year now, and my lesions were as big as golf balls under my groin, and even worse on the arm pitts, so get a new dermy, cuz the symptons are only gonna get worse with time, I am only 25 by the way, started with hs when I was 15, was told it was nothing, kept searching and searching for a good derm till I finally found mine, get the injections, and do your research, dont go to a dermy misinformed, because 75% of them dont know crap.

[YEA] Doctor informed me I had hidradenitis supperativa. Symptoms included boils and inflamed lymph nodes. Alternative effective treatments included daily high doses of Vitamins C, E, zinc, mucinex. New information and treatment described below has lead to cessation of symptoms.
Recently received root canal re-treatment and discovered abscess into bone tissue. No longer experience hidradenitis superativa symptoms.

07/14/2010I went to the dentist because my front teeth were aching really bad and they did an x-ray and immediately sent me to an oral surgeon. I had an abscess above my front top teeth that was so big they had never seen anything like it. He went in through my gums and roof of my mouth and removed a golf ball sized abscess. I have had many cases of that size cyst on different parts of my body for the past 20 years. Some were lanced, some surgically removed. Many antibiotics and no explanations. I researched myself and found this site. I found out it was Hidradenitis supperativa and that I should try Turmeric. I drink a Heaping teaspoon of Turmeric in a half cup of water as soon as I feel one beginning to flair up. I continue to drink it 2-3 times a day until its gone and it never gets big. It stops it before it grows big. Thank God and this site!!!

Hello Everyone! I am 25 years old and my first flare up of Hidradenitis Suppurativa happened when I was 10 years old. Doctors were surprised it happened even before puberty. There is a number of family members with the same condition; however, every single one of them dealt with it privately and didn't offer help. Didn't help that we are all very distant from one another. This site has provided so much advice and natural remedies that I had not thought of. I wish I had some tricks up my sleeve as far as treatment but I do not.
The only thing I can share that helped me through high school was exercise; I had only one flare up from the age of 14 to 18 and I believe that's because I was crazy active in high school. That and my doctor recommended to not wear underwear at night- no bra and no panties, and that proved very helpful. Once I went to college and my activity level dropped, however, by sophomore year I had HS in my underarms. I am at a point where I have to change my lifestyle; I have graduated college and starting a great career. I have found a wonderful partner who knows about HS and is very supportive.
I have flare ups at least once a month, I have scars and I can not wear tank tops anymore- or short shorts for that matter. I have been to the emergency room with a bump as big as a golf ball; I have tried medication that never helped; I have had surgery on the groin area at the age of 14. I sometimes do get bumps on my buttocks- that is a new development. I did experience loneliness and isolation to some degree. But I am so very happy to have found this community, to see how big this disease is and to know that I am not alone. I will be definitely trying the Turmeric pills and tea as well as a Paleo diet for starters and go from there. I just wanted to share my experiences in hopes that someone can relate and see that, well, there's nowhere else to go but forward.

03/04/2015i wasn't going to share my story until I saw yours. You don't know how much your comment has helped me. I didn't think anyone else got it so young . I have had this since I was 11. I thought it was a punishment from God for shaving off my hair because it didn't want to embrace puberty. I hid it from my family until I was 14, it got so bad I thought I was never going to recover. The first doctor I went to shamed me and gave me antibiotics that almost killed me -literally. The other doctor that I went to save me from the antibiotics was male and too shamed to even try to help me. It's been 5 years and I haven't been back to a doctor since. And have never been romantically with someone because of this. I am hoping this tea tree oil and turmeric work!
Turmeric Treatment for Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Home Remedy Ingredients
- Powdered Turmeric - 1 Teaspoon
Turmeric capsules are available, but you can also simply take 1 tsp of powdered turmeric in 1/4 cup of water three times a day for Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Many people also like it in warm milk (almond or rice will do as well as dairy).

[YEA] Where do I begin? I have had Hidradenitis Suppurativa FOR THE LAST 3 years ... It had devastated my life until I found the magical medicine right in my cabinet which was overlooked for years .. Never too late .. I read posts here and started drinking turmeric water 2 times a day... Results: IT WORKS.. I just wished I had used it earlier on.. I have stage 1.. I tried everything under the sun.. Diet, topical application and birth control pill etc.. It does work temporarily but if you discontinue and if you are not religious about it returns ..
What I did for my HS is I just took 3/4 - 1 Tablespoon of turmeric and added t to 5-7 oz of warm water and just drank it (gulp it, better that way) for 2 times a day. I continue to do so. I couldn't believe the inflammation is gone, literally flattened, and as others have said here it acts fast and all am left with is scars which I plan to clear out through bio oil and coconut oil ? I have never felt this confident in years. Try it out today. I used organic home grown and home ground turmeric. Good luck.Posted by Lance (Nashville) on 02/04/2014
[YEA] YEA turmeric for Hidradenitis Suppurativa! ! I have been using the 2 tablespoons with 1/2 cup of water everyday. Noticeable improvement. I have been diagnosed and have been on antibiotics for years. I stopped taking them because they didn't work. Dermatologist even looked at it once and said it looks like it hurts. What a jerk.

My son is 17 years old and his been suffering from HS [Hidradenitis Suppurativa] for 2 years. None of the antibiotics are helping. His scalp is eating him alive besides the boils he is getting. They just finished surgery on his backside and left him disfigured. No buttocks and a 20 inch scar starting from the anus upward. The doctor mentioned this was one of the worse cases he has seen. As a mother, I am heartbroken for my son. I ran across this page and now I have hope. I started him on the tumeric pills plus other remedies I read. I most certainly will be upgrading and monitoring him so that I may share this and perhaps help someone else.Replied by Bettyboop

03/25/2013Rubanant from Cottonwood, Az, I understand your son's pain. I am a 22 year old female who has suffered with HS since I was 11. I hit puberty early (age 9) and received my first boil in the middle of my breasts. Since then, it got worse and progressed. I was not diagnosed with HS until I was 14 and had my first surgery at age 16. Since then, I have had 8 surgeries and about to have my 9th in May. With that being said, I had multiple areas done with each surgery, resulting in many scars and a lot of healing time. It is difficult to deal with the pain and even with having surgery, it is not 100% that it will not come back. I also have issues with not healing and that leads to having another surgery. I have done much research and every doctor I have seen (infectious diesease, surgeon, wound care specialist, dermatologist) has said that my case is the worst that they had seen and they are amazed that I am able to do the things that I do. I am in college and has managed to win awards for academic acheivement and stay on Dean's List and school is what keeps me going. My parents have been very supportive and I just encourage you to reassure your son to think about the positives and that you will always be there for him. I know it can be hard to see your child go through so much pain because my mother in particular had broken down one 2 occassions but I manage to stay strong and look ahead. I've had my entire left and right side of the groin opened up, left open for about 2 weeks and then skin grafts put on it, underarm completely excised and left open (looked like a shark took a chunk out of my underarm) and this took 1 year and 1 month to heal. I definitely know his pain and hope that he can find something to focus on to be his motivation.Posted by Elle (Ocala, Florida) on 01/28/2013
I have suffered since puberty with HS. Mainly groin/anal area but I recently had one under my arm too. So glad to find this site. So many treatments that I didn't know anything about. I'm off to the store to get organic tumeric, ACV and MgCl salts. Thank you so much for everybody's input.Posted by Nottoday (Washington, Dc) on 07/26/2012
[YEA] Suffer from Hidradenitis.. I started taking turmeric about a month ago. GREAT results. My multiple boils all began to weep dramatically and then nothing. I have applied tea tree oil to them and finally after 6 months of having open sores under my arms they are closing!!! Felt a boil under my arm yesterday and today it was so painful. Opened a turmeric capsule and made a paste with some water about 10am... Its now 12:50pm... just noticed that it is pain free and draining under my bandage.Posted by Aaron (Raleigh, Nc) on 06/09/2012
[YEA] I am a 23 year old male, about 35 pounds over my ideal weight. I have had HS for over 5 years now. I used to have it on the area above my penis and the doctor diagnosed it as carbuncles and gave me antibiotics. The antibiotics took a week to show signs and I only got mediocre results. A month or 2 after the antibiotics, the sores returned. The lesions migrated around my crotch and buttocks for awhile before finally coming to rest between my legs. During a flare, my crotch looked like a war zone, not to mention the pain and oozing and bleeding. When I wasn't flaring, it still looked bad down there. This has played a huge role in my sex life, or should I say lack of. Its hard explaining to friends and family why I dont ever have a girlfriend, or even try to meet girls. It made me depressed, I became sedentary and smoked a bunch of marijuana (to medicate the depression), played video games, ate and gained weight. This WAS my life.
I started taking turmeric about 2 weeks ago for Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Only hours after taking the first dose (2 tbl spoons in 1/2 cup of water) I noticed about 50% improvement! I was astonished, and was extremely encouraged to take successive doses. I have taken it twice a day for over a week now at a lower dose of 2 teaspoons per 1/2 cup warm water. I would say that now I am 90% better looking down there, with the last few stubborn lesions shrinking and on their way out. Today I picked up the turmeric capsules ($12 for 60) and will be taking them (500 mg/day) from now on.
I am also now taking ACV for weight loss, to raise my pH, and to lower my blood pressure. I highly recommend looking into ACV for the aforementioned ailments. I noticed a drop in my blood pressure after 1 day, I just felt so much healthier.
This site has changed my life, I feel like a completely new person and am forever greatful to this site and its contributors. In a month or so I will be in better financial health so I plan to make a donation to the site. Thank you so much!Replied by Jena

05/18/2012Well, about a year or two ago I got a lump on the inside of my buttcheek near the top of my thigh. The lump was very small but quite painful(especially when sitting). After a few weeks, it completely went away and I thought that was the end of it. But then a few weeks later, another lump appeared, this time on the opposite side. Again it went away on it's own and I didn't think anything of it. Here I am a year later and I now get these lumps about once every 4 weeks or so. Usually they go away on their own after about a week and a half but they never fully disappear, there are always tiny little lumps that seem to lay dormant until coming to a head and popping.
At the beginning of this week I got two more of them on the same side of my butt. They were a bit more painful this time but again they came to a head and popped on their own. I thought I was ok for a while but pretty much the day after they popped this time, they reformed except they conjoined into one HUGE lump that is EXTREMELY painful. This is the most pain I have ever been in, ever, and I have broken bones, dislocated my collar bone, etc. It's very embarassing and depressing because I constantly have to tell my friends that I hurt my leg because I walk with a limp from the pain. It has prevented me from enjoying my life.
I found this website today and immediately went out to the store and bought some Turmeric powder, neosporin, band-aids and some mercury chloride flakes(to bathe with). I really hope that I have as much success as some of you had, I want my life back.....Posted by Dawn (Brandon, Ms, Usa) on 04/11/2012
I am new to this website, and am grateful for all the information. My son is suffering from both erysipelas and hidradenitis suppurativa. Right now he is having a flare of the erysipelas that is not responding to the standard antibiotics from his doctor. After reading on this site, I have started him on tumeric, azo yeast and tea tree oil, but I am not sure how much tumeric to give during a flare. Can someone help me out on this?Posted by Hania (Houston, Tx) on 10/26/2011
I wanted to thank the creators of this site and its contributors so much for all the helpful information I found on here. I've had HS for years and always felt as if I was the only person who had this. It was actually just last year when I found out this was HS and not some mystery disease. Unfortunately there is no cure. I've seen different doctors who just didn't know how to go about dealing with this disease. I didn't want to go in for another round of antibiotics, or expensive injections at an expensive dermatologist, so I decided to go the home/organic remedy route. I'm so thankful to have found this site.
I had a really bad flare up last night, a very large and painful boil. It was very difficult for my to walk or sit, and I could only lay on one side of my body in bed, to keep pressure from building on the boil. I drank a mug full of hot water with 1/2 teaspoon turmeric and crushed black pepper. When I woke up this morning the first thing I drank was half cup of hot water with black onion seeds. Then I drank the turmeric and black pepper in hot water again this morning at 6 and 11:30, and the swelling and pain have gone down considerably. It's nasty but it works! I will drink it again at 4 pm and 10 pm. My mother has been telling me about drinking milk or water with turneric for a long time now, I don't know why I never listened! Mother really does know best!
I've noticed that sugar and coffee is the only main thing that causes these boils for me. I need to lose weight as well. It may not be everyone, but I've been doing my own research on this disease and have seen that a lot of people dealing with HS are overweight or obese.

Characterization of the "deqi" response in acupuncture
BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine 2007, 7:33 doi:10.1186/1472-6882-7-33
Response to Howard Moffet
harry wright (2008-01-11 17:05) University of Life
Howard Moffet makes several misleading comments.
His first, regarding the necessity, or otherwise, of obtaining a de qi response is covered by the authors in the Background information when they clearly state in the first sentence that 'Acupuncture stimulation elicits deqi, a composite of unique sensations that is essential for clinical efficacy according to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).' They do not indicate their intention to study other non-invasive forms of acupuncture, or indeed any methods which do not rely upon obtaining a de qi response such as Japanese acupuncture, merely TCM acupuncture.
The use of an experienced acupuncturist was clearly important for the study and 25 years of clinical experience of acupuncture would, I suggest, equip him to elicit the appropriate de qi response and at the appropriate depth of needling for the selected point.
The purpose of the exercise was not to specify how deeply the needles were inserted but that a de qi response was obtained. It would have been of interest to know the depth (although the information can be readily obtained elsewhere) but not essential.
The study aim was to characterise de qi phenomena so it is unsurprising that the investigators wanted to elicit such a response. It seems surprising that this can be misconstrued as predetermining the outcome.
The tapping of points with a monofilament prior to needling provided a control and also introduced another element into the equation, which is that even gently touching an acupuncture point will elicit a response.
As to the final comment, ANY competent acupuncturist can perform acupuncture without eliciting a de qi response - tapping a needle into a point through a guide tube and then leaving it should fulfil the criteria. However, Mr Moffett still misses the point of the study. It is not whether achieving de qi is necessary when carrying out an acupuncture treatment, or even whether it is possible to perform acupuncture without achieving de qi. It is characterising the de qi response.

The truthiness of deqi
Howard Moffet (2007-12-10 11:28) Kaiser Permanente Division of Research
Hui et al[1] reported on their investigation into sensations elicited by acupuncture needling which are known as deqi. The authors have previously made significant contributions to our understanding of how the brain responds to acupuncture stimulation.[2]
The present study of deqi is motivated by the premise that "this state [sic] is essential for clinical efficacy,"[1] but two years ago, they professed merely that deqi is "related to clinical efficacy."[2] In fact, there is little evidence for the necessity of deqi, in part because "there is lack of adequate experimental data to indicate what sensations comprise deqi."[1] Non-invasive forms of acupuncture point stimulation, including acupressure, moxibustion and Toyo Hari acupuncture, are not known to depend on deqi. While deqi may reflect relevant nervous system input, the belief that deqi is necessary for clinical effectiveness is unsubstantiated.
The study investigators enlisted an acupuncturist whose "sensitivity to needle manipulation was pretested, aiming to reliably elicit deqi sensations."[1] Unfortunately, the authors fail to state how or by what criteria the acupuncturist was pretested. The study aim was to characterize deqi phenomenon, but the intervention was chosen for its ability to reliably produce the outcome they sought to study. Thus they reported that the predetermined outcome has reliable characteristics! Clinical investigations are more informative when they are less tautological.
The authors described the needling technique, but failed to mention the depth of needle insertions (0.5-1.0" are minimum depths typically prescribed for these points).[3] For the control, "superficial tactile stimulation was performed by gentle tapping with a size 5.88 von Frey monofilament;"[1] that is, with no insertion. The subjects reported that the "frequency and intensity of individual sensations were significantly higher in acupuncture" than in superficial tactile stimulation.[1] That subcutaneous needling feels more intense than superficial stimulation is neither surprising nor informative.
The authors claim that they "have provided experimental evidence to support the occurrence of a unique composition of sensations termed deqi,"[1] but they determined only that the sensations are different from those produced by one type of superficial tactile stimulation and have failed to demonstrate uniqueness. Patients naturally experience diverse sensations depending on the needling technique and their own health status.[3] Moreover, needling sensations experienced by healthy volunteers, even if consistent, may have little or no relevance to those in ill patients.
If we grant that the investigators have demonstrated that one acupuncturist can reliably elicit deqi, can this (or any) acupuncturist perform acupuncture which reliably does not elicit deqi? That is, can the acupuncturist choose to elicit deqi or not? Deqi may simply be an artifact of needling and not essential for clinical effectiveness.

MOBILE, Ala. -- Almost 900 athletes turned out, including some of the top players in the area, in what might have been the most talent-laden scouting combine of the young season.
Kelton Brackett, DB (Prichard, Ala./Blount)
The talented cornerback clocked a 4.59 40-yard dash and showed why he's one of the most heavily recruited defensive backs in the area. Brackett claimed offers from LSU, Clemson and Southern Miss and is also hearing from Oregon, Florida, Florida State and Auburn. The Tigers are his early favorite and childhood dream school followed by Auburn, Clemson, Alabama and FSU.
Kyron Samuels, OL (Fairhope, Ala./Fairhope)
The big lineman claims offers from East Carolina, Southern Miss and UAB and is also hearing from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Mississippi State and Oregon. The Tide top his list followed by the Gators, Bulldogs and Ducks. Samuels will unofficially visit Florida later this month and also plans to experience camp with the Gators and the Tide.
Nick James, DL (Long Beach, Miss./Long Beach)
James ran the 40 but wasn't able to finish testing. The big tackle has offers from the entire SEC except Georgia. He has a top three of Alabama, Florida and LSU, and said Auburn is also high on his list. James said he'll be at the Nike camp at Florida State in April.
Tre' Banks, LB (Mobile, Ala./Williamson)
Banks showed excellent athleticism for a 225-pound linebacker, running a 4.61 40 and jumping 32 inches in the vertical. Kentucky has offered and Alabama, Auburn and LSU are showing heavy interest as well. He said he would like to play in the SEC, if possible.
Justin Horton, LB (Clermont, Fla./East Ridge)
Horton had the top rating at the combine at 122.73, good enough for best in the nation so far this year. He is still waiting for interest to pick up, but Duke and Tennessee are sending letters. Horton calls Miami his dream school and also likes Florida, Alabama, Clemson and Virginia Tech.
Tylor Harris, DL (Baton Rouge, La./Episcopal)
Harris has been offered by Louisiana Tech and is also hearing from Texas A&M, Nebraska, Mississippi State, Minnesota and LSU. He attended the Tigers' junior day and will attend their spring game. The lineman said he would like to hear more from Alabama and Florida and would prefer to play in the SEC. The Tide lead LSU and Texas A&M.
Raymond Gee Jr., WR (Cleveland, Miss./Cleveland)
Southern Miss has offered, and Ole Miss, LSU, Tennessee and Mississippi State are showing interest as well. Gee's father, Raymond Sr., played at Mississippi State, and the receiver attended the Bulldogs' junior day.
JaMichael Winston, DL (Prichard, Ala./Vigor)
Winston had shoulder surgery and missed his entire junior season. He still has offers from Louisville and Southern Miss and will attend junior days at both Alabama and Auburn. He called Ohio State his dream school followed by Texas. The lineman will also visit Florida State and LSU in the summer.
Herbert Harris, LB (Clinton, Miss./Clinton)
Harris put up a 102.72 SPARQ rating headlined by a very impressive 43-foot toss in the power ball and a 31-inch vertical leap. The athlete is still waiting for his first scholarship offer but is hearing from Ole Miss, Mississippi State, LSU, Auburn, Tennessee, UCLA and Alabama. He attended junior day events at Mississippi State and Southern Miss and may check out Louisiana-Lafayette later this month.
O'Terrius Howard, TE (Prattville, Ala./Autauga Academy)
Howard is an intriguing sophomore tight end prospect who just missed going over the 100 SPARQ rating mark. He's hearing from Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss and Mississippi State. He has already visited Oklahoma, Ole Miss and Alabama and will camp with the Tide and the Tigers. Alabama tops his list followed by Auburn, Ole Miss, Florida and Tennessee, and Howard said he would have no problem leaving his home state to play his college ball. The athlete had 29 touchdowns last season and also saw time at linebacker.
Jeff Hall, DB (Reserve, La./Saint Charles)
Hall topped the 100 SPARQ rating barrier highlighted by a 4.60 40 and a 4.12 shuttle time. As a junior, Hall returned two kickoffs for touchdowns and also had two interceptions that he took back to the house. He added 26 catches for 453 yards and six touchdowns at receiver and is getting looks on both sides of the ball. Penn State, UCLA, LSU and Miami are all showing interest ,and Hall attended the Tigers' junior day. Miami, Penn State and TCU top his list.
Gus Walley, WR (Richton, Miss./Greene County)
Walley is a big receiver and surprised onlookers running a 4.65 40 and a 4.16 shuttle at 6-5, 206 pounds. As a junior, Walley caught 48 balls for 674 yards and 12 touchdowns. The entire SEC plus Nebraska is showing interest, and Walley said Mississippi State is his dream school. The receiver has visited Mississippi State and Southern Miss, and he'll attend Ole Miss' junior day in early April. After MSU, Walley likes Ole Miss, Nebraska and Southern Miss.
Keyante Green, RB (Jonesboro, Ga./Eagles Landing)
Just a sophomore, Green already holds an offer from Georgia and is hearing from Clemson, UCLA, Michigan, Michigan State, Florida State, North Carolina, Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech. Green made an immediate impact his freshman season, rushing for 1,433 yards and 19 touchdowns. As a sophomore, he rushed for 1,292 yards and 26 touchdowns while averaging more than 10 yards a carry and added 112 tackles playing linebacker.

Brazil's exuberance likely to add sparkle to Olympic football
You can say what you like about the merits or otherwise of including football in the Olympics, but there was plenty on display at the Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough on Friday to indicate that the tournament will add value and entertainment to the Games.
The bad news from a Team GB perspective was that most of it was provided by a Brazil side that looked so in control they brought to mind a conjurer who had decided to save most of his party tricks for a more demanding occasion.
"Prior to that the hum around the ground reminded me more of a Test match after a wicket had fallen than a contest between two teams with hopes of forthcoming Olympic glory."
For the Brazilians, the fact they have never won Olympic gold is an itch that needs scratching and they intend to do just that. They are also here to continue their preparations towards the World Cup they are hosting in 2014. Team GB might be on a voyage of discovery, like a child with a new and shiny toy, but for Brazil this is strictly business.
Oscar - reportedly on his way to Chelsea - pulled the strings in midfield as his team reached a 2-0 lead at the break, while the movement and familiarity between a side packed with talent was in stark contrast with Team GB's relative cast of strangers.
Neymar happily assumed the role of pantomime villain after spending an age on the floor holding his face after failing to win a penalty. The Santos forward was booed by the crowd, who had finally been raised from their slumber by his antics, and then gave him a slow hand-clap.
Prior to that the hum around the ground reminded me more of a Test match after a wicket had fallen than a contest between two teams with hopes of forthcoming Olympic glory.
It was almost as though once the whistle signalled kick-off nobody in the crowd quite knew how to get behind Team GB. They cheered skipper Ryan Giggs every time he got on the ball with the same passion that they booed GB's former Newcastle forward Craig Bellamy, but there was no singing at all.
There was plenty of Olympic apparel - official and otherwise - on display among the crowd of 24,721 inside the Riverside. I was particularly taken by a father and his two sons in head-to-toe GB gear. It was just about the first thing I saw when I arrived in the afternoon, although the union jack reindeer ears I spotted later in the day were also particularly fetching.
And I thought there was a real sense of anticipation as the women's team drew 0-0 with Sweden and the ground started to fill ahead of the men's fixture.
But when the action started in the men's match there were large passages of play played in front of a largely silent crowd. Perhaps it is because Team GB last participated in the men's Olympic football tournament in 1960 while the women are competing for the first time. There are relatively few people around to form a link with the past; the history is too distant.
A new chapter is being written and it is being done from a standing start.
Players from both sides have talked in glowing terms about how inclusive and interesting it is to be part of Team GB but somebody somewhere could do with coming up with a few Team GB chants - and fast - although everyone is on a learning curve at the moment.
Some of the players in the women's team admitted it sounded strange listening to skipper Casey Stoney shouting 'Come on Team GB' as the team made its way out of the tunnel for their warm-up match.
MEN'S TEAM GB's GROUP A OLYMPIC 2012 FIXTURES
- 26 July: v Senegal at Old Trafford, Manchester
- 29 July: v United Arab Emirates at Wembley, London
- 1 August: v Uruguay at Millennium Stadium, Cardiff
Coach Hope Powell thought her side looked nervous. They will have to come to terms with a much more daunting - but perhaps inspiring - occasion when they effectively kick off the Games for Team GB in their opening group match against New Zealand in Cardiff on Wednesday.
Men's coach Stuart Pearce was keen to try to focus on the positives, which at first glance did not seem like a particularly easy task. He was pleased with the distribution from the back and the performances of the likes of midfielder Joe Allen and goalkeeper Jack Butland, who came on at the break and made a series of sterling saves to enhance his burgeoning reputation.
But, unlike the bulk of Powell's team and, for that matter, their Brazilian opponents, Pearce's squad are not a well-drilled outfit. For the opening half hour they were particularly rusty at the back. Marking was poor for Sandro's opening goal and central defensive duo Micah Richards and James Tomkins were too often on the wrong wavelength.
While Brazil's fluid attacking unit of Neymar, Leandro Damiao, Oscar and Hulk interchanged positions with ease, Team GB stuttered badly in the final third, a point that Pearce admitted he is hoping to address before their opener against Senegal on Thursday.

One to watch: Marta
With Daniel Sturridge recovering from meningitis and Marvin Sordell inexperienced at this level, Craig Bellamy had a brief spell up front and almost scored in the second half.
But it is hard to see where Pearce's team will find the goal that would negate any defensive weakness.
The good news is that if Team GB go on to play a side as good as Brazil again it will probably be fair to say their Olympic campaign has been a success, with a meeting against either Spain or Brazil impossible before the semi-final stage.
As Pearce himself said, if a team defeats Brazil in the forthcoming tournament they will probably be collecting a gold medal.
Bellamy was slightly blunter but no less accurate in his assessment when he remarked: "Thank God they're not in our group."
That said, a very dangerous Uruguay side lie in wait at the end of the group stage, while Thursday's match against Senegal could be a very tricky opening fixture.
And with just five training sessions left before then, there is plenty for Pearce to do if his players are going to produce the sort of performance that might give the fans something to sing about.

Its safe to say that Brazil SHOULD have the football gold in the bag - IF they stick to their guns and manage to overcome agressive and defensive styled teams
It also goes to show the lack of talent and quality within the GB setup - no youngsters like Neymar or Lucas Moura, or players worth over £20m ...

As a Scot, I forget where (SFA) stood on the whole will we/won't we chat. Since there were no Scots in the "GB" squad then I assume we decided not to participate? Or did we decide to take part but Mr Pearce just overlooked any Scottish players?

Male football is the only sport at the Olympics where it is not the best playing the best because of the under 23 age limit, it is a made up sport to keep FIFA happy so it will not take away from the World Cup.
Also true Olympians train every day in the pursuit of an Olympic Gold Medal not turn up two weeks ahead and see what happens

OK Pearce is not the man for the job of coaching any British top flight team

Regardless of the rights & wrongs of a GB team, the sad fact in my view, is that even if all of the home nations fielded their 1st XI's, all of them would struggle to get out of any of these Olympic groups. GB will do well to win a game. This tournament should be a sober reminder of where the British Isles are in world youth football. The nationality of the players is not really the issue.

This could be the most exciting football competition since Bradley Wiggins won the Tour de France.

Rhodes should definitely have been in the team, especially looking at the forwards that were chosen. As should several of the English players that were at Euro 2012. Unfortunately they are not and we are left with the likes of Tomkins, Cork and Sordell.

University of Texas Arlington
American Heart Association grant to study heart disease at cellular level
Wednesday, December 7, 2011
Media Contact: Herb Booth, Office:817-272-7075, Cell:214-546-1082, email@example.com
A UT Arlington bioengineering professor has been awarded a $140,000 American Heart Association grant to study how physical and biological factors influence the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, a condition that can lead to heart disease.
Kytai Nguyen, an associate professor of bioengineering associate professor, said knowing how smooth muscle cells respond to changes in their environment could lead to a better understanding of how vascular disease develops. Movement of smooth muscle cells and their proliferation have been shown to play an important role in heart diseases such as atherosclerosis and restenosis, she said.
Nguyen is collaborating with two University of Texas at Arlington faculty colleagues, bioengineering professor Charles Chuong and J.-C. Chiao, an electrical engineering and bioengineering professor.
"We hope to provide critical insights into the regulatory mechanisms that both physical and biological stimuli have on smooth muscle cell responses, especially at the pathological levels," Nguyen said. "We also could gain new knowledge that might lead to the development of better therapies and treatment strategies for cardiovascular diseases."
More than 81 million Americans suffer from some form of cardiovascular disease, according to the American Heart Association. Slightly more than one in three U.S. deaths was directly attributable to cardiovascular disease.
The study aims to address an important issue in vascular biology: how does combined mechanical and chemical stimulation influence smooth muscle cell responses including proliferation, transformation and inflammation.
"When we know the causes of these diseases, then it's easier to fine the treatments and develop better therapies and treatments," Nguyen said.
One main goals of the research is to develop and apply the Microwell Array Stretch System to investigate the smooth muscle cells' responses to stretch and growth factors. The system will allow researchers to study multiple samples simultaneously – which reduces the cost of such testing – and allows researchers to study signaling pathways that regulate changes in smooth muscle cells' responses.
"It's important to see why they are multiplying and becoming inflamed," said Nguyen, whose specialty is cell and tissue engineering. "Ultimately, the research could lead to better drugs or vascular implants to combat these diseases."
Khosrow Behbehani, chair of UT Arlington's Department of Bioengineering, said the heart disease research is the representative of UT Arlington research that can improve lives.
"These diseases are so prevalent," Behbehani said. "This integration of engineering and life science is crucial to answering some of the fundamental questions regarding how these diseases develop and can be treated."
Nguyen's work is representative of the groundbreaking research taking place at The University of Texas at Arlington, a comprehensive research institution of 33,439 students in the heart of North Texas. Visit www.uta.edu to learn more.

|NBA: Phoenix Suns at Sacramento Kings Preview & Picks
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Tuesday, 20 November 2007 04:09
Winning Formula
The Phoenix Suns have not lost since Amare Stoudemire returned, though he is far from the only reason they have gotten back on such a roll offensively.
Back to their high-scoring ways following a relatively slow start, the Suns go for a sixth consecutive victory when they visit the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday.
Oddsmakers from Bodog have made Phoenix –7.5 point spread favorites (NBA Odds) for todays game, the over/under has been set at 212 total points (Matchup). Our public betting information shows that 83% of bets for this game have been placed on Phoenix –7.5 (View NBA Bet Percentages).
Stoudemire sat out three games earlier this month due to soreness in his right knee, having undergone arthroscopic surgery on Oct. 2. Phoenix is 5-0 since he rejoined the lineup, and the All-Star center has looked a lot closer to full strength in the last three games, averaging 20.3 points, 10.3 rebounds and 4.0 blocks.
"For me it is a matter of getting stronger as the season goes on," Stoudemire said. "I'm not where I want to be but I am working on it."
The Suns (8-2) have scored more than 110 points in three straight games, shooting 56.1 percent from the field and going 27-of-62 from 3-point range (43.5 percent).
The league's highest-scoring team of the past three seasons was not playing nearly as well offensively through its first seven games, averaging 104.3 points while making 45.7 percent from the floor. Phoenix's only two losses came when it failed to score 100 points.
"We don't quite have the same flow (as last season) but we are playing well," said Steve Nash, who had 15 assists for a second straight game Saturday in a 115-105 win at Houston.
The last three games also have seen offseason acquisition Grant Hill step up to average 21.0 points, shooting 24-of-36 from the field.
"He is even better than what I thought," Suns coach Mike D'Antoni said. "He has all the intangibles out on the court."
Shawn Marion had his seventh double-double of the season Saturday with 18 points and 11 rebounds to go with a season-high four blocks. He's averaged 20.7 points - three above his season average - in the last three games.
Over the last four games, Leandro Barbosa has averaged a team-high 27.0 points while starting three times for an injured Raja Bell (sprained ankle). Suns coach Mike D'Antoni believes Bell could be ready to play Tuesday.
Having the All-Defensive first teamer available would be a big help to the Suns so they could stick him on Kings guard Kevin Martin, the league's second-leading scorer at 27.3 points per game.
Two days after scoring a career-high 43 points as Sacramento (4-6) beat New York in double overtime, Martin was held to a season-low 19 on Sunday in a 105-95 victory over Detroit.
His new starting backcourt mate, Beno Udrih, had 23 points and six assists in the latest victory. Acquired during the preseason after being cut by San Antonio, Udrih has started the last three games at point guard after Orien Greene and Francisco Garcia were unable to hold down the job in place of the injured Mike Bibby.
With Bibby (thumb) is expected to be out until mid-December, Udrih has averaged 16.7 points and 5.7 assists since becoming the starter.
"I chose this team because I knew I would get an opportunity to play; I didn't get that in San Antonio," Udrih said. "Playing regular minutes has helped my confidence."
The Kings have won back-to-back games, something they failed to do during their previous 30 contests.
Sunday's victory over an elite team like the Pistons should provide a confidence boost for Sacramento, considering its other three victories were against three of the league's worst teams - Seattle, Minnesota and New York.
"I've always thought they're pretty tough, I just think that they have to have some success to start to believe in themselves," first-year Kings coach Reggie Theus said of his players. "Double-overtime game against a tough club the other night and this one should show them what they can do if they stick with it."
Phoenix had won five straight meetings with Sacramento before losing the most recent one, 107-100 at Arco Arena on March 25.

First Pacific keen on Angat plant
MVP confirms initial talks with Korean firm
Hong Kong-based First Pacific Co. Ltd., headed by businessman Manuel V. Pangilinan, confirmed that it was in talks with Korea Water Resources Corp. on a potential partnership involving the 246-megawatt (MW) Angat hydropower plant in Bulacan.
Pangilinan, who serves as managing director of First Pacific, said his group had spoken with officials of Korea Water.
"We visited Daejeon in Korea," Pangilinan said on Friday, referring to the South Korean company's headquarters. "They have not made a decision on which group to partner with."
First Pacific is an investment holding firm controlled by Indonesia's Salim family and whose investments are mainly located in the Philippines. Through local units, it has a controlling stake in Maynilad Water Services Inc., which supplies water to the west zone of Metro Manila and nearby provinces, and a 48-percent stake in Manila Electric Co., the country's biggest electricity retailer.
First Pacific was among the interested groups when the Angat hydroelectric plant was auctioned in 2010.
At the time, it had partnered with rival Ayala Corp., which owns the Philippine capital's east zone concessionaire Manila Water Corp., as well as the Lopez group in a joint bid against other players like San Miguel Corp., Consunji-led DMCI and the Aboitiz Group.
The state-run Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corp. (PSALM) eventually announced that Korea Water submitted the highest bid of $440.8 million.
In May 2010, however, the Supreme Court issued a "status quo ante order" effectively blocking the planned privatization of Angat Dam's hydroelectric power plant.
The high court only last year rendered as valid and legal the sale of the Angat power plant to Korea Water. But the plant has yet to be turned over as the government and Korea Water finalize certain details under a so-called water protocol.
Korea Water, the leading water resources and power firm in South Korea, signed last April its agreement to the water protocol governing the operations of the Angat hydropower plant. Both parties decided to "re-execute" the documents governing the sale of the facility to Korea Water because the Supreme Court required some changes in the documents.
However, no definite schedule was given for the turnover of the Angat facility.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get jVault?
is no longer available for any devices. This FAQ is being maintained to help answer questions for existing users of jVault.
Why has Cohosoft decided to no longer develop jVault?
See our Blog page for a detailed explanation.
Can I continue to use jVault, and what if I need to reinstall the app on a future device?
You can continue to use jVault as much as you want on your existing device. Although the jVault app has been "unpublished" on the Google Play Store, if you purchased the app in the past it should continue to be available for download and installation on any of of your devices which uses the same Google account.
Will you continue to update and make bug fixes to jVault?
No, there will be no further development of jVault.
Will jVault run on the new Android 5.0 (Lollipop) OS?
The current version of jVault has not been tested on Android 5.0, so we don't know for sure how well it will work.
What is
jVault Desktop
, and will it run on my computer system?
jVault Desktop is the companion desktop app to jVault for Android. It was designed to work in conjunction with jVault on the mobile device, by allowing the user to quickly enter and edit data from a Desktop computer system, and transfer the encrypted data to jVault on the mobile device. jVault Desktop can also be used to view and search jVault data on the Desktop computer.
How much does jVault Desktop cost?
The version currently available is free to all jVault for Android users.
Where can I get jVault Desktop?
You can download the
Windows Version
from this link, and the
Mac OSX version
from this link.
I just downloaded jVault Desktop on my PC and it's asking me to restore from a backup file. Why do I need to restore from a backup?
This is normal. You need to restore from a jVault for Android backup file to start using jVault Desktop (this is because only jVault for Android users are allowed to use this Desktop application).
How do I get data entered in jVault Desktop over to jVault running on my Android device?
You need to export your data to an encrypted file called 'jvault_backup4.data' located in your PC's synced Dropbox folder, in a subfolder called 'Cohosoft'. Then, from jVault for Android on your mobile device, initiate a Backup Restore from your Dropbox online account. jVault for Android will restore your data from this backup file.
Is there a way to transfer my data between jVault Desktop and jVault for Android without using a Dropbox online account?
Using your personal Dropbox online account is the only way to transfer data from jVault Desktop to jVault for Android running on your mobile devices.
Is my data that is backed up to my Dropbox account safe?
The jVault backup file stored in your personal online Dropbox account is fully encrypted using AES encryption, and the only way to decrypt it is for you to use your personal passphrase.
I forgot my passcode for jVault and can't access my data. Can you reset it for me?
The data in jVault is fully encrypted using AES encryption, and your passcode is not stored in the database. You can only decrypt it with the proper password. If you forgot it, then you're out of luck. That's the high-security feature of jVault-- your data cannot be decrypted by anyone without your passcode.
I have Cohosoft's jVault app running on my HP-WebOS device. Can I use this version of jVault Desktop with it?
No, that is not possible. jVault for WebOS uses a different encryption algorithm than jVault for Android (and jVault Desktop).
I started up jVault on my Samsung/HTC device, and I don't see the menu bar. Where is it?
With the latest version of Android OS (Kitkat 4.2) Samsung decided to "hide" the menu bar for older apps. to show it, you'll need to press and hold the multi windows/previous opened button to the left of the menu bar at the bottom of the screen. When you do that, you should see the black menu bar at the bottom of the screen.
For some HTC devices, you'll need to do this:
Hide/Show Menu Bar.
Where can I download the old jVault Desktop (for WebOS)?
Go this this
web page
where you'll find a link for downloading the old jVault Desktop app. Remember, this old version is incompatible with the latest version of jVault Desktop (for Android)
How can I transfer my old jVault Desktop data (WebOS) over to the new jVault Desktop (for Android)?
See this
special web page
that describes the process.

When the Voting Rights Bill of 1965 was signed by President Lyndon Johnson, most of us in the black community considered that fight won. It had been a long, hard fight and we were glad to see the end.
Unfortunately, as soon as time had passed and the government closed its doors, the Southern states returned to their fighting stance. While most populations are pleased to have citizens turn out to the polls, the legislatures of many Southern states have a problem with African-Americans showing up at the polls.
Actually, since there is very little evidence of any kind of voter fraud going on anywhere, these zealots are conspiring to fight an enemy that doesn't exist. They go on endlessly making laws for voter IDs for people to have on hand when they show up to vote. They debate on whether there needs to be photographs on IDs or not. They argue over what days or weekends should be closed prior to election days.
Apparently, the citizens are not voting the way the legislatures want them to. That is too bad. These politicians will ultimately find out that Americans will go along with a lot of things for a long time, until they decide to do the right thing. Then they will no longer tolerate the foolishness. In the end, it will be easier to just do the right thing and allow people to have their right to vote without all the foolishness.
I can remember when the two parties worked hard on their elections and when one party was successful, the other party put up their boxing gloves and settled down until the next fight. And let's not forget the two parties often worked together to get important bills passed. I would hope that spirit hasn't died. We are truly in need of a complete Congress working together to deal with the issues we have facing us today.
The legislatures in the Southern states are just going to have to realize that African-Americans are determined to have their voting rights and they are not prepared to have them taken from them. It would be wasteful to have to fight for that issue again.
We won that fight in 1965. Remember?

I know in the past, a friend had a 120 camera that he was able to shoot 35mm in no problem; unfortunately we've lost touch so I can't ask him what it was. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BOSTON, MA - Chien-Ming Wang pitrches forthe Toronto Blue Jays against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on June 27, 2013 at Fenway Park. (Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images)
Reds manager and former pitching coach Bryan Price has a new reclamation project - a former 19-game winner for the Yankees.
CINCINNATI – Reds manager and former pitching coach Bryan Price has a new reclamation project - a former 19-game winner for the Yankees.
Veteran right-hander Chien-Ming Wang has agreed to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training, the club announced.
Also signed to minor-league contracts and invited to spring training are: pitchers Jose Diaz and Lee Hyde; catchers Corky Miller, Rossmel Perez and Max Ramirez; infielders Argenis Diaz, Reynaldo Navarro and Kristopher Negron; and outfielder Jason Bourgeois. RELATED: See Wang's career stats.
Wang, who will be 34 on Opening Day, won 19 games in 2006 and 2007, but he injured his foot running the bases in 2008 and hasn't been the same since. He had hip and shoulder injuries in 2009 and pitched only 12 games before season-ending surgery on his right shoulder. He spent all of the 2010 season recovering from it.
The Taiwanese right-hander made 27 appearances (22 starts) for the Nationals and Blue Jays in 2012. He had a minor-league stint with the Yankees in 2013 but was released in June. After that, Wang went 1-2 with a 7.67 ERA in six starts for the Blue Jays.
Wang put up decent numbers at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last season: an 8-7 record with a 2.87 ERA in 18 appearances (17 starts).
Wang will get $1.25 million if he is called up, according to Octagon, the agency that represents him. He could make $3 million with incentives.
