Fishing Report: Redfish are getting red hot
NAPLES - Anglers, email your photos to email@example.com or post them at www.naplesnews.com/participate and we will compile your images into an online gallery that's featured each Thursday morning here at www.naplesnews.com.
Our community can be proud of the warm welcome given to the soldiers and their families that participated in the second annual "Take A Soldier Fishing" weekend.
Seventy soldiers from McDill Air Force Base in Tampa (home to Central Command and Special Ops forces) and their families were taken care of, from soup to nuts, by generous contributions by many different organizations and individuals. Calusa Marina, Stock Development (Players Club at Lely), Dolphin Transportation, Quality Inn, Coastal Beverage, Tamiami Ford and the Collier County Sheriffs Office all played a part in this successful event.
Forty boats and 46 captains also volunteered to take this group out for a day of inshore fishing. Everyone who participated was a winner, but for the weigh-in, the rankings were: 1. Mike Wieczonek and James Stafford (Capt. Troy Pruitt), 2. Chad Cothron and James Stafford (Capt. Chris Turner and Tom Mahoney), 3. Leona McKoy and Mike McKoy (Capt. Robert Soto and Jesse Karen). A special thank you to Steve and Jamie Lloyd for their countless hours.
* * *
Last year, at this time the big fishing story was the arrival of schools of small redfish. These fish were in the 15- to 16-inch range at the time, and it was not uncommon to land 20 or more in a single outing.
Well, they are back and starting to school up around the islands and bars, willing to eat pretty much anything you throw their way. Most of those fish are in the 18- to 23-inch range now, and the good news is that we have another year class mixed in with them. With a second year of smaller fish, our population of reds is better than anytime in recent history.
That the reds are here doesn't mean that the snook have taken a vacation. Snook are still very much a strong part of the inshore fishery, from way down in the Ten Thousands Islands up through Estero Bay.
Down in the Islands, the snook population is still recovering from the kill off in 2010, but the good news is that snook are being caught and released up and down the coast. Especially gratifying are the 12- to 14-inch little guys that are setting up home down in the upper Ten Thousand Islands.
Some really large trout are being picked off by anglers while fishing for other species. Also, some small schools are appearing, which is amazing considering the temperature of the water. Some good catches are around deeper water off points and near passes, as well as on outside grass flats. Picking up a flounder or two while trout fishing is quite common.
For those of you who like to hit the mackerel schools, they are here. Reports of Spanish mackerel running up to five pounds are not unusual. They will eat a live bait or attack a fast-moving artificial. For those of you new to mackerel fishing, watch out for the teeth!
Farther offshore, red grouper continue to fill ice chests of those anglers willing to venture out to a little deeper water. It seems that if you work some good bottom in wate 50 feet or better, your chances of a keeper are better. The gags are not appearing in large numbers, and most anglers feel that is because the water is still too warm. Gags used to be legal in the winter when they venture closer to shore.
Ten Thousand Islands: Capt. Pete Rapps says the fishing is awesome for reds and trout south of Everglades City. He has been doing real well on slot reds, trout up to 22 inches, and even a number of flounder.
Snook have been active on the outside edges, but as the water temperature starts to drop, they will begin the annual migration to the backcountry. On a recent trip with Rick Ladermann and his dad, Capt. Rapps put them on the reds and trout. At the end of the day, there was plenty of filets in the cooler.
Jim Davidson fished with Capt. Glen Puopolo for three days recently, and they worked over the reds pretty good. Fish ranged from 18 inches to a huge, 33-inch, 15-pound monster. They also caught and released snook in the 25-inch range. Glen says that the trout are showing up on the grass flats in good numbers. For bait, he is mostly using shrimp and finger mullet.
Naples/Estero Bay: On Monday, I had the pleasure of fishing with Dave Cassidy, his daughter Wylie, and John Preeg.
While the weather was miserable, the fishing was great. After chumming for bait and filling the well, we went in search of fish. Our first spot resulted in several nice reds, a 22-inch trout, and one snook. Several large fish broke off.
As we moved down the bank, we continued to get more reds and a jack crevalle. The fish were eating just about any bait we threw out. We used shrimp, pilchards, pinfish, and cut bait. By 1 p.m., we were run off the water again, and called it a day. After fishing only about three hours, we had boated over 30 reds up to about 25 inches, a half-dozen snook, and other assorted critters of the sea.
Capt. Steve Nagy had a great time with large Spanish mackerel and good-sized trout. He said the macks were running four to five pounds, while the trout were all over 15 inches. He was using live menhaden, and when he tossed a bait out, if it made it to the bottom, he caught a trout. If it didn't, he caught mackerel. Not a bad situation.
Offshore: Onboard the "Cuda," on Sunday, Capt. Mike Lucas took angler Mike and his family out for a three-quarter day offshore.
Running out to 56 feet of water, they caught a bunch of red grouper, including a limit of eight to 26 inches using cut bait. The water was at 85 degrees and nice. After the grouper, they targeted a school of mackerel and landed many up to three pounds.
Capt. Tom Robinson went out on Friday for a half day with Jason and friends from Savannah, Ga.
Running out about 10 miles, they hit some short gags and reds to start off, and then Capt. Tom got the guys something bigger to play with. First off was a 27-pound king mackerel that took a half pinfish on the bottom. Then it was goliath time, and three were hooked, caught and released at the same time. The three fish ranged from 30 to 80 pounds. Tom says the water was greenish, but that didn't seem to bother the fish.

text: A drug bust at a Portsmouth house, and outside of the house, has resulted in four arrests.Portsmouth police drug agent Steve Timberlake had received complaints Saturday about drug activity at 1407 Center St.While operating a surveillance outside the house, police reportedly saw Albert A. Spears, 39, of 2120 Ninth St., Portsmouth, come out of the house with something in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. He walked to a vehicle. A few minutes later, the man, with a woman identified as Kayla Crabtree, 28, of 184 Hall St., Sciotoville, started back across the street, at about the time another suspected drug dealer, Sam D. Holmes, 28, of 1612 Robinson Ave., Portsmouth, exited the house and watched the two as they were attempting to leave, and he reportedly went back into the house.Police approached Spears and Crabtree on foot as they were preparing to drive away.Timberlake said he saw Spears shoving something onto the floor of the vehicle and rubbing the white substance on his pants.The two were removed from the vehicle, and officers recovered six off-white rocks of crack cocaine from the floor by Spears' feet and a black plastic tray where he had put the crack cocaine sitting on. During the search, officers said they found a glass stem in his right pocket and white powder on both seats. Officers also searched Crabtree's purse, where they found a small pink pouch with a mirror and straw with residue, and a hose clamp fashioned into a scraper to remove coating from oxycodone tablets.Both were arrested and taken to Scioto County Jail.Spears also was found to have two warrants for his arrest through Portsmouth Municipal Court.Spears faces charges of tampering with evidence, possession of drugs containing cocaine and two counts of failure to appear-issuance of warrant.Crabtree is charged with possession of drugs containing cocaine, and drug paraphernalia.Timberlake said he went to the back door of 1407 Center St., and when he was admitted, smelled the odor of marijuana. He also found Holmes, his girlfriend, Kayla Davis, and Cory Pullings, 30, of 2224, Ravenwood, Apt. 1, Dayton.During the course of the search, when everyone was told to lay down on the floor for the protection of the police officer, Timberlake said he was told Davis was the one who held the drugs. A female Ohio State High-way Patrol trooper was called in to search Davis, and when she was taken in the bathroom, she pulled a baggie containing crack cocaine from her genital area.Holmes was charged with trafficking in drugs and possession of drugs containing cocaine.Pullings was charged with possession of drugs containing cocaine, and trafficking in drugs.FRANK LEWIS can be reached at (740) 353-3101, ext. 232.

"I don?t give a f_ck about money, bro. Believe me when I tell you that." Dana White
david will do just fine at 125/130
They want these kids to compete in the Dixie Duals, 3 tournaments in state, the Southeast Regionals, and the Cadet or Junior National Duals. Plus you have to pay for the week long National Team camp (in New Orleans)and get to Fargo. Cost for Southeast Regionals about $350, cost for National Cadet or Junior Duals about $500, cost for 3 local (in state)tournaments about $350, cost for Fargo about $1600 (that includes the $250 fee for the mandatory "team camp"). If you do not live in New Orleans you have to figure in hotel, gas, and lodging for a week to attend the camp. This is of great detriment to the wrestlers from other areas across the state.
We could not even field a team for the Cadet and/or Junior National Duals this year. Why? Because it costs too much and the powers that be cannot figure that out. The powers that be are stiffling the sport in our state and making it unavailable to a vast majority of folks.
I am puzzled how clubs can make $15,000 to $20,000 on a tournament and then still have these kids pay to represent their state at National tournaments. That seems ridiculous.
I heard that David Taylor weighed somewhere around 150 pounds. Seeing him wrestle, the boy is very technically sound. I don't think however that he has the horse power as of yet to dominate 135's or above.
Holding it in Fargo is hard to justify. To fly in and out, the cheapest ticket you'll find even in buying it over a month in advance, is just under $500. There also isn't a whole lot to do there for parents and or wrestlers when you're on a stretch of down time, and that limits it as well too. For such a big event, it's hard to believe we've accepted Fargo as the place where it is held.
I'm certain that David Taylor will have success. The boy is, like I said, very technically sound. He is the toughest wrestler I have ever seen on top. However, 135's, 140's, 145's, is not like 103's or 112's. DT has great scrambling abilities that will definately help, but "at this time" doesn't have the horsepower. Like you posted "David is doing everything he can to build his strength".
Everyone can speculate on how he will do at a hevier weight. The only ones who really know are David and his coaches.
With size comes strength with proper training, and I believe David is doing the training. A kid at that level got there by hard training.

EU budget: David Cameron says deal 'not good enough'
Prime Minister David Cameron has said the EU budget deal being offered in Brussels "was not good enough", as the summit broke up without agreement.
Mr Cameron said "unaffordable spending" was being cut in its member countries and EU institutions had to start to live in the "real world".
He said that what had been suggested amounted to "tinkering" with spending.
"We put down a very clear marker," said the PM, adding that a deal was still "doable" but not "at any cost".

Egypt President Mursi defends new powers amid protests
President Mohammed Mursi has appeared before supporters in Cairo to defend a new decree that grants him sweeping powers.
He told them he was leading Egypt on a path to "freedom and democracy" and was the guardian of stability.
He was speaking as thousands of opponents gathered in Cairo's Tahrir Square and offices of the president's party were attacked in several cities.
The decree says presidential decisions cannot be revoked by any authority.

Energy Bill: Households to fund £7.6bn green investment
The government has published details of its long-awaited Energy Bill, designed to keep lights on and emissions down.
It will allow energy firms to charge households an extra £7.6bn until 2020, which will go towards the development of low-carbon electricity generation.
A decision about setting carbon emission targets for 2030 has been delayed until 2016, after the election.
Fears have been expressed about the impact on bills and whether this delay will put off investors in new plants.

Pakistan suspends mobile networks over fears of attacks
Pakistan's authorities are suspending mobile phone services in major cities to prevent sectarian violence during key Shia Muslim commemorations.
More than 90% of bombs are detonated by attackers using phones, officials say.
In some areas, motorbikes carrying passengers have been banned because of fears that this is how attackers could be brought to their targets.
Attacks on minority Shia by hard-line Sunnis have increased in recent months across Pakistan.

DR Congo conflict: UN aid agencies warn of crisis
The UN has warned of a growing humanitarian crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where rebels took the eastern city of Goma on Tuesday.
Aid officials said the fighting has made camps for people displaced by earlier conflicts inaccessible, with food and medicines running short.
Agencies say civilians also face killings, abductions and extortion at the hands of the M23 rebels.
Armed groups have battled over mineral-rich eastern DR Congo for two decades.

Colombia's Farc call for US release of Simon Trinidad
Colombia's left-wing rebel group Farc have called on Barack Obama to free a guerrilla leader serving a 60-year prison sentence in the US.
Simon Trinidad's presence would bolster the chances of peace talks with Colombia's government, said the group.
Trinidad was named as part of the Farc's negotiating team in September.
The rebels took a life-sized cardboard cut-out of Trinidad to peace talks in Cuba last week, but the US said it was unlikely to free Farc prisoners.

Wall Street ends higher in short session, led by techs
(Reuters) - Stocks rose for a fifth day during a holiday-shortened, thinly traded session on Friday as investors picked up recently beaten-down shares of large technology companies.
Market participants were also encouraged by signs of progress in talks about releasing aid to debt-saddled Greece and piled into U.S. retail shares as Black Friday got the holiday shopping season under way.
U.S. stock market trading ended early and was closed on Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Volume was the lightest of the year, though the session was abbreviated. Shares of big-cap technology companies climbed as investors took advantage of the day's upward momentum to add to positions, helping the S&P 500 rack up its second best week of 2012.
Reuters:Russian lawmakers introduce law on "foreign agent" media
Russian lawmakers introduce law on "foreign agent" media
(Reuters) - Russian lawmakers introduced a bill to the state Duma, or lower house of parliament, on Friday which would force foreign-funded media to register as 'foreign agents', adding to a raft of bills that critics say is aimed at cracking down on dissent.
The law would complement another piece of legislation that forces non-government organizations that engage in "political activities" and receive money from abroad to register themselves using the same term, which is steeped in Cold-War era hostility.
"Media will be considered as such if they receive money or property greater than 50 percent of revenues from foreign governments and their organs, international and foreign organizations as well as foreign citizens and people without citizenship," Interfax reported.
It was not clear how widely the new rules would be applied, and whether they would apply to Russian media with foreign funding or all foreign media organizations. Russian officials were not immediately available for comment.
Reuters:Goldman Sachs sets value for minority holders of Amil stock
Goldman Sachs sets value for minority holders of Amil stock
(Reuters) - United Health Group Inc (UNH.N) should pay minority shareholders in Brazilian health-insurance group Amil Participacoes SA (AMIL3.SA) between 25.84 reais and 27.07 reais ($12.42 and $13.01) a share for their stock as part of a takeover announced in October, Amil said in a statement on Friday.
The price was determined by the Brazilian unit of Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS.N) which was hired to set a value for Amil shares, the statement said. U.S.-based United Health agreed to pay $4.9 billion for Amil in its largest-ever foreign acquisition that was unveiled on October 8.
When the minority stakes are purchased, Amil will be de-listed from the Sao Paulo BM&FBovespa exchange.
The upper range of the Goldman Sach's estimate is 12 percent below the 30.74 reais that United Health paid for its controlling stake.

HP says products may have been sold to Syria by others
(Reuters) - Hewlett Packard Co said in a letter made public on Friday that its products could have been delivered to Syria through resellers or distributors, but the world's largest PC maker affirmed it did not sell directly to the country.
The letter was a response to a request from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's Office of Global Security Risk that asked whether HP's products were sold in countries where they would be subject to U.S. sanctions.
"We are aware of November 2011 news reports that your equipment was installed by the Italian company, Area SpA, in Syria as part of a nationwide surveillance and tracking system designed to monitor people in that country," the SEC wrote in its request.
"Please describe to us the nature, duration, and extent of your past, current, and anticipated contacts with Syria and Iran, whether through subsidiaries, distributors, resellers, vendors, retailers, or other direct or indirect arrangements."
Reuters:North Korea possibly preparing long-range missile test-report
North Korea possibly preparing long-range missile test-report
(Reuters) - North Korea, under heavy U.N. sanctions for its nuclear weapons program, could be preparing a long-range ballistic missile test, a Japanese newspaper said on Friday, citing officials who have seen U.S. intelligence analysis.
The report comes just weeks before South Korea's December 19 presidential election in which how to handle North Korea is a major campaign issue. The isolated North has for years tried to influence major events in the South by waging propaganda or armed attacks.
North and South Korea have been technically at war since their 1950-53 conflict ended in a truce, not a peace treaty, and regional powers have for years been trying to rein in the North's nuclear program.
"The United States has detected moves that are seen as preparation by North Korea for a long-range missile launch, which could take place as early as this month," the Asahi daily said citing unnamed government officials.

U.S. first lady Michelle Obama received the official White House Christmas tree Friday - an annual day-after-Thanksgiving tradition.
Mrs. Obama inspected the tree with daughters Sasha and Malia and family dog Bo, after it was delivered on a horse-drawn carriage.
The first lady leaned down to smell the nearly 5.8-meter fir tree, while 14-year-old Malia commented that she always looks for a nice point on the top.
After Malia confirmed this year's tree has a "very good" one, Mrs. Obama gave a thumbs-up signifying the family's approval.

We had a yoga and meditation retreat at Casa~playa and it was perfect. The house is cute as can be, very clean, welcoming and comfortable. The beach was beautiful. Look forward to coming again!
Bricen & Rafael were excellent host. Casa Playa was a dream. You can literally hear the waves from all bedrooms which was so relaxing. The beach is clean and the people that live in the small beach town are very welcoming and friendly. We had a small Mother's Day family gathering and everyone loved Casa Playa. The convenience of having the beach in your backyard was absolutely one of the best things Casa Playa had to offer. The house was equipped with everything one would need while on vacation. My family and I can't wait to visit Casa Playa again.
Rafa was an excellent host. The decor was spot on for a Casa~Playa and like new. The kitchen was well equipped. It was ideal to be a short drive away from the large hotels and congestion of downtown Melbourne. The house fit 6 guests comfortably.
We had the best experience at CasaPlaya and were sad to leave. The location is incredible - just steps to the beach and very private. In the mornings, no one was around on the beach except for a few fisherman. We couldn't have asked for better hosts. Bricen and Rafael encouraged us to use everything in the house, including their surf boards. They had an entire closet full of toys which kept my 3-year old nephew entertained for hours. The fire pit was such a treat! The house was fully stocked - plenty of sheets, pillows, towels, etc. which was much appreciated. Next year, we are going to stay at CasaPlaya for a week. The weekend was just not long enough!
The host was wonderful and accommodating from start to finish. The house was perfect location because it is right on the beach and it was literally minutes from the Long Point Restaurant and Tackle Store, which was charming and convenient. The food was great and the store had everything we needed. The neighbourhood was a relaxing atmosphere and people we met there were absolutely gracious and friendly, everyone of them. Everyone had a smile and were very friendly. My friends and I had the most awesome time!
Casa~Playa was a lovely home in a beautiful setting. It was a wonderful end to our 3 week trip to Florida, and was just what we needed. The beds were very comfortable, the open plan space worked really well for us and our 5 children. It was so nice to be able to go and swim in the sea with the minimum of fuss, and the outdoor shower was just great for washing sand off everything.
Spectacular sunsets, glorious sunshine.
The property had air conditioning and ceiling fans for us very pale-skinned English folks to cool down and escape from the heat of the day while the little one had a nap.
We stayed at Casa Playa for a week with two families (4 adults and 3 toddlers total) and had a great time. Rafael and Bricen were very accommodating and made the whole experience very simple and easy. The house is very family friendly - its pretty well baby/toddler proofed, there are many toys and other amenities, and the layout is nice in that bedrooms are on opposite ends of the structure so that two couples can stay there and still have some privacy. The beach is gorgeous and very accessible and the surrounding area is very nice overall. The neighboring houses are quite close, especially on the south side, but this wasn't an issue as there wasn't anybody in either house all week and so we didn't have any problems with noise or privacy.

After Burner sports merely decent graphics while managing to suck all the fun out of a once-great franchise. [Apr 2007, p.92]
In the jet games I've recently reviewed, I felt like I breezed through the missions and thus their shallow customization options, but that didn't happen with After Burner...The game challenges without frustrating.
It could've used additional multiplayer options and the overused rock music gets old. Past that, the game play, graphics, customization features and humorous touches from Planet Moon (like a flying cow) make this a game PSP owners should gun for.

Can I get an idea of how much to expect fulltime daycare to cost in Austin? Still on the fence what to do....
Daycare Costs in Austin?
It really depends on where you will be sending your child and age.
When DD was an infant I paid $165/wk and now that she's 2 some schools have gone up significantly and its about $150 to $185/wk for her now. I fully expected tuition to go down as she got older!!
I did find a school for her that is $700/month and its great!
Daycare can definitely get pricey around here depending on what you are looking for.
What area are you looking for daycare in? Hopefully I can be of more help
The State of Texas runs a website for childcare. I looked up Austin agencies that had their own websites to compare prices.
One of our friends used to sell insurance for daycares and she said that Children's Courtyard or Stepping Stone were the two best in Austin...Children's Court yard was $250/wk...Stepping Stone is $815/month....I went ahead and signed up for Stepping Stone.
Married ~ Michael ~ February 15, 2008
Preston�~ June 3, 2009
BABY # 2 ~ EDD February 18, 2012
I received prices from 12 daycares and they ranged from $840-$1300. I chose a smaller place very close to my home and it is $880. I'm sure there are less expensive places but I didn't dare look.

Baby Esme due January 5, 2010!
I don'[t know about Children's Courtyard, but most of the Stepping Stones have really bad turnover rates. Their staff is very unstable...constant new teachers being brought in. Maybe that isn't true at all of their locations, but it certainly was in the one that my friend's little girl went to.
If you go to an inhome care center, it will be cheaper, perhaps as cheap as 575-600 for a baby. A daycare center for a newborn will be around 900-1000 for a newborn. I pay 640 for my 4 year old at an awesome Montessori school in NW Austin. That does not include lunch, though, but it is 7 AM until 6 PM if I need it to be.

I LOVE Children's Center at Austin, and it is around $1,000.
Mom to James 04/11/2008
p.s. I looked at stepping stone on brodie and didn't feel comfortable there at all. It was over capacity regardless of what the assis. director said (I can count) and the turnover is very high. Even the assistant director had only been there 2 months.
~Brittany in ATX~
Baby Esme due January 5, 2010!
Brittany- I have to tell you guys, I worked there when I first moved to Austin. I worked there for all of 6 weeks. (1 month and I put in my 2 weeks) I taught pre-k. And the class I taught, I was the SEVENTH teacher they had that summer (I started in August- which means the other SIX taught in the space of TWO MONTHS).
I adored the children and the staff honestly seemed well-meaning. But with a turnover rate being what it was... it seemed to me too be too chaotic. In regards to the capacity- the law says (at the pre-k level) no more than 18 per teacher- that's the STATE capacity. An "accredited" school will not have more that 15 per teacher- that particular location is NOT accredited. I can tell you as a teacher that 18 children with me alone.... its no wonder none of those teachers lasted more than a week or two.
That having been said, I did have the pleasure of meeting an amazing teacher at one of the Round Rock locations who had an INCREDIBLE system going with her kids- those were some of the smartest 4yr olds I've ever met. But that teacher had been there for YEARS.

Coleman turbine coating company cuts 28 percent of work force
COLEMAN -- A Coleman company that coats steel wind tower sections has cut its approximate 140 person work force by 28 percent, a company vice president said Monday.
Wind Clean Corp.'s work force cut is the result of a 40 percent reduction in work orders for 2009 for the company.
After Coleman residents raised concerns about the status of Wind Clean given the current national economic crisis, the company's vice president, Tim Manley released a statement Monday about the employee cuts.
"We expect the slowdown to be temporary," he said in the statement.
He said the companies and individuals who invest in wind farms have been negatively impacted by the financial crisis.
"This means there is less money to invest in good opportunities like wind energy, and that is what drives the demand for wind towers," he said. "It is only a matter of time before the new administration implements legislation that creates new vehicles for investment in wind energy. Once this is done, new money will find its way into this market. Wind Clean and its customers are strong and well positioned to endure this event."

Beware of OTC Head Lice Products, says Lice Busters, America's #1 All Natural Lice Treatment Brand
Most over the counter Head Lice Products contain toxic chemicals in order to kill Lice and Nits. It's extremely important to treat lice using an all natural method.
(PRWEB) May 12, 2013
When someone catches head lice or comes into contact with someone who has, most of them go to a local store or pharmacy for some over the counter head lice products to treat the infestation.
"When choosing which head lice products to use, its very important to consider the harms and side effects of using a toxic lice product. Some OTC lice products contain pesticides to kill the lice and nits. So when treating someone especially a loved one, its best to use an all natural product" says Dalya Harel, founder of Lice Busters one of the largest lice removal services in America.
One of Lice Busters biggest advantages and selling points is their all natural lice treatment method and its 100% effectiveness at removing lice and nits. Most people who have head lice are families with young kids, so you definitely do not want to place any chemicals on their precious heads.
"I always tell my clients, that the Lice Busters Lice Treatment method consist of natural removing the lice and nits from the hair. Other lice treatments consist of pesticides to Kill the lice" says Dalya.
Using a Toxic Lice product could come at a serious health risk to the person being treated. Something Dalya Harel aka "The Lice Lady" most surely is all too familiar with.
"I hear crazy stories all the time from our new clients that come to one of our lice removal salons to be treated. For instance a young father recently told me he put boiling hot water on his 6 year old daughters head to kill the lice. I wanted to smack some sense into him" says Dalya, who refrained and strongly told him that placing boiling hot water on his daughters head is only going to hurt his daughter and not the lice.
About Lice Busters:
Lice Busters is an all-natural, lice treatment and lice removal service that offers a 100% guaranteed head lice treatment and lice check. The Lice Busters lice treatment method consist of manually removing head lice safely and discreetly, in a private salon setting or a chosen location.

No Strategy Without Vision
Latest update: June 20th, 2013
"He who rules the Mount rules the land," wrote the poet of accusation and faith, Uri Zvi Greenberg.
When we surrendered sovereignty in exchange for quiet, we always lost both: we lost sovereignty and we got war. "You were given the choice between war and dishonor," said Churchill as his countrymen rejoiced over Chamberlain's Munich Pact. "You chose dishonor and you will have war."
Churchill was referring to dishonor in a conflict zone far from Britain's borders. What awaits us when we choose the greatest dishonor of all: the surrender of the Temple Mount?

Appeals court orders review in death penalty case
BOISE, Idaho The life of a man convicted of kidnapping, torture and murder might be spared after an appeals court has ruled that Joseph Edward Duncan III should have been given a competency hearing before he was allowed to waive his appeal.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and remanded Duncan's case Monday, ordering U.S. District Court Judge Edward Lodge to hold a retrospective competency hearing for Duncan.
If Duncan is found to be incompetent on the matter of waiving his right to an appeal, Lodge must hold an additional hearing to determine whether the death row inmate was competent to represent himself. If he's not, Lodge must vacate the death sentence.
In a prepared statement, U.S. Attorney Wendy Olson said that since his arrest in 2005, Duncan has been found competent by every court that has considered the issue, and that his three death sentences remain in place. She said the competency hearing was simply a procedural matter.
Duncan was sentenced to die in 2008 for kidnapping, torturing and murdering a 9-year-old Coeur d'Alene boy in 2005. Prosecutors said Duncan snatched Dylan Groene and his 8-year-old sister from their northern Idaho home after killing their older brother, mother and mother's fiance. Duncan kept the children at a remote Montana campsite for weeks before killing Dylan and returning with Dylan's sister to Coeur d'Alene, where he was arrested.
At his federal trial in Boise, Duncan decided to represent himself even though the court had provided him with three defense attorneys. The court-appointed attorneys were put on "standby" status, ordered to help him when he asks, but otherwise allow Duncan to handle his own defense.
The attorneys challenged whether Duncan was competent to represent himself, but the district court rejected their challenge and decided not to hold a hearing on the matter. After Duncan was sentenced to death and waived his right to an appeal, his standby attorneys again challenged whether he was competent to make that decision. Again, Lodge found that he was and didn't hold a hearing on the matter.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Lodge should have held a hearing to determine Duncan's competency. The appellate judges noted that although he frequently appeared rational in court, Duncan had unusual religious beliefs that played a significant role in how he conducted his defense. And while two experts appointed by the lower federal court found that Duncan was competent to stand trial, the appellate court noted that some experts contacted by the standby attorneys found that Duncan was delusional and psychotic.
"We must decide whether the evidence established `reasonable cause' to believe that Defendant lacked the competence required to represent himself and to waive his right to an appeal," Judge Suan Graber wrote on behalf of herself and judges Raymond Fisher and Milan Smith Jr. "We think it did, and thus, that the district court erred when it concluded otherwise."
During the sentencing hearing, Lodge did make an effort to determine if Duncan was competent. He ordered Duncan to be examined by a local psychologist, who said that while Duncan's thoughts were "somewhat unusual," Duncan wasn't delusional and that he'd waived his right to an attorney knowingly and voluntarily. Lodge went on to have Duncan evaluated again, this time by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. For that evaluation, a forensic psychologist watched Duncan over a period of six weeks, reviewed his mental and medical health records and spoke to his attorneys. Duncan refused to participate in the evaluations.

Wells can't hold off Astros in Padres' 5-3 loss
HOUSTON Considering he hadn't pitched in the majors in almost three years, San Diego starter Kip Wells was having a decent night through four innings Tuesday against the Houston Astros.
But things got wild in the fifth and it ended up costing the Padres.
J.D. Martinez hit a two-run homer, Jed Lowrie added a solo shot and the Astros held on for a 5-3 win.
Wells (0-1) became the 13th different starter in San Diego's revolving-door rotation by making his first major league appearance since 2009. Signed to a minor league deal May 7, Wells yielded seven hits and five runs - two earned - in five innings.
"In general, I feel like I didn't really change my agenda or pitch selection or my effort level even in the last inning," Wells said. "At times, you have a tendency, at least for me, when the pressure gets on and guys in scoring position, to try to do more and that can backfire on you more than you think because you tend to leave pitches up."
San Diego manager Bud Black said Wells' stuff was pretty good, but he was a bit erratic at times.
"His fastball had some movement to it," Black said. "He had some arm-side sink. When it was down in the zone, it stayed pretty true. Other times it would cut. He had a good hard slider and worked a couple of curveballs."
The 35-year-old Wells hadn't pitched in the majors since Oct. 1, 2009, when he allowed five runs in two-plus innings of a 13-0 loss to St. Louis with the Reds. He was called up from Triple-A Tucson for Tuesday's start.
Lowrie started the fifth with a single and went to third on an error by Wells, who overthrew second base on Brian Bogusevic's one-out comebacker.
The Astros took a 2-1 lead when Lowrie scored on a wild pitch before Chris Johnson's run-scoring single, which extended his hitting streak to seven games.
Then came Martinez's 10th home run of the season to push Houston's lead to 5-1.
"Obviously, from an individual standpoint, you see that you shot yourself in the foot a little bit," Wells said about the error. "The home run that Martinez hit, the pitch was a decent pitch. It was down and middle in. It wasn't just a cookie, but I would have liked to have not cashed myself in for more runs."
Houston starter Jordan Lyles (2-4) allowed six hits and a run in 6 1-3 innings to break a three-game losing streak and earn his first victory since June 3.
The game was tied at 1 after Will Venable and Lowrie exchanged solo homers in the third.
Venable hit a ball that bounced off the top of the wall in right field and back onto the field for what was first called a triple to start the inning. The play was reviewed and Venable had his sixth homer to put San Diego up 1-0.

Seasonal recipes: 5 healthy Super Bowl snacks
Give your guests some healthier food options for the big game.
Mon, Feb 01, 2010 at 11:55 AM
Let's be clear. I'm not saying you can't serve five gallons of hot wings at your Super Bowl party this weekend. If there was ever an occasion for five gallons of hot wings, I would think Super Bowl Sunday would be it. Along side of those wings, however, how about offering some subtly healthier options?
For New Year's Eve, I offered up five healthy appetizer recipes. You could go with some of those, but the food guests expect for a Super Bowl party are often different than what they expect to see on New Year's Eve. Here are five party foods for your guests to munch on as they are screaming at the TV.
Organic Popcorn – Don't buy the bagged or the microwavable popcorn. Go with air-popped popcorn or pop it on your stove in a little olive oil. Add a small amount of real butter and some kosher salt or other natural seasonings.
Healthier Nachos – I found this recipe on Healthy Tasty Cheap. Black beans, corn, pepper, onion, and tomatoes top organic chips. A little 2 percent sharp cheddar cheese and reduced-fat sour cream cover all the beans and veggies so your guests won't say "Look, healthy nachos!"
Vegetarian Chili – Chili in a slow cooker is a staple at many Super Bowl parties. This low-fat vegetarian recipe from Allrecipes.com has been given an average 41/2 out of 5 stars from 355 people — many of them meat eaters. It's easy to throw together, and if you cook it the day before the game, the flavor will only get better by game time.
Hummus – Food Network has a variety of hummus dip recipes, and you can search for one that suites your tastes. Healthier than dips made of cheeses and sour cream, hummus uses nutrient-packed beans as a base. Serve with veggies or pita chips for dipping.
Twice-baked Sweet Potatoes – Instead of serving traditional deep-fried potato skins, try these twice-baked sweet potatoes from Health.com. They use Canadian bacon instead of the fattier regular bacon and reduced-fat sour cream and cheddar cheese.

"Kelly Jean is an inspirational healer on both a physical and spiritual level. Through her own amazing journey of overcoming adversity and transforming into a healthy, happy self, as well as her studied knowledge of nutrition, various exercise techniques and spiritual guidance, she is well-equipped to make a huge impact in the lives of those who seek her help. I worked with her regularly for about 3 months and in that time have completely shifted my life's direction. I had endured an almost life-long struggle with severe depression, anxiety, insomnia and substance abuse prior to working with Kelly Jean. I had previously sought help through various psychologists, psychiatrists and medications with little lasting positive effect, and in some cases, very unpleasant negative side effects. Kelly Jean has instead taught me how to improve all aspects of my health through natural means and with the power of my own consciousness.
I know that such a major lifestyle change will continue to require further vigilance in my efforts to maintain progress, but I have already come so far and feel so much more confident, at ease and empowered that I have little doubt in the permanence of my new direction. It is a great feeling to finally know that I am in control of my own mind, body and life's path. I do believe that it invariably requires a high degree of willingness and effort within oneself to achieve any long-term personal readjustment, but if you so choose, Kelly Jean will be there with unconditional love to support, motivate and guide you along your way."

Original Gun
I heard an interview with Ian Fleming when I was young. He said the point of the original gun was to show that Bond never really needed it. Bond's real weapon was his quick wits, charm, and unfailing intuition, rendering the gun a paper weight to be carried only because it was required. So Bond wanted to carry the most useless hint of a gun he could get away with, which the 0.25 Barretta fit to a tee.
Ian realized that he wasn't getting this point across after being assailed by readers about how awful the .25 Baretta was (Ian's actual point) and that no-one in their right mind would carry a .25 Barretta for field work.
Ian still maintained that Bond really only needed a gun as a last resort, since Bond, himself, was really his best weapon.
Getting a better gun was tacit to Bond saying he wasn't good enough to save the day on is own.

Friday, October 29, 2010

LEESBURG, Ga. -- Dr. Phillip Hajek graciously accepted recognition for he and his colleagues at Musculoskeletal Associates' contributions in completing the Lee County animal facility that officially became the Fifth Friday Foundation Animal Shelter Friday.
But Hajek warned that the job of humanely caring for the county's discarded animals is only beginning.
"Bricks and mortar are easy," Hajek said during a dedication ceremony at the shelter's 101 Mossy Dell Road location. "Once they're in place, though, it becomes about taking care of these animals every day."
Hajek, with the support of his colleagues -- Dr. Steven Ganzel, Dr. Ki-Hon Lin and Dr. Franklin Thomas -- started the Fifth Friday Foundation to help deserving charitable organizations in the community. They donate office proceeds collected every fifth Friday to the foundation.
After an office visit from Lee Commission Chairman Ed Duffy, who discussed the county's funding issues surrounding its planned animal shelter, Hajek decided to get the foundation involved. By the time the facility was finished, the Fifth Friday Foundation had contributed more than $216,000.
"We would not be dedicating this building today without the generosity of the Fifth Friday Foundation," Duffy said at Friday's event, attended by more than 40 citizens. "And while Dr. Hajek, his partners and the foundation were the largest benefactors, we also want to say a special thanks to everyone who donated to this project.
"In addition the the Fifth Friday Foundation's $216,000 contribution, another $114,000 was donated, including $50,000 by one anonymous donor. I've been, frankly, stunned by the generosity of the people in this community. Lee County appreciates it, and I know the animals will appreciate it."
Information about adopting pets or making donations to the shelter is available online at www.lee.ga.us.

Staff Reporter
KOCHI: Since the shortage of medical college teachers due to the increase in the number of medical colleges is inevitable, the Medical Council of India should pool in the human resources required for medical colleges to achieve the required number of teachers needed for a college, G. Sudhakaran, Minister for Co-operation, said while inaugurating the medical exhibition MEDEX' 10 at the Co-operative Medical College campus at Kalamassery.
He said that if more medical colleges were set up in the 70s and 80s, there would not be such shortage of medical college teachers. However, the shortage would be overcome in another ten years, he said.
The exhibition is being held as part of the 10th anniversary celebrations of the Co-operative Academy of Professional Education (CAPE), under which the medical college was set up. The celebrations would conclude at Pariyaram with a youth festival at the end of the month.
At the function, Arifa, chairperson of Kalamassery Municipality, presided. P. G. R. Pillai, Medical Director of the college, welcomed the gathering. CAPE Director Krishnan Kutty and college principal Roy Abraham Kallivayalil spoke. Gills George, convenor of the exhibition , proposed a vote of thanks.
The exhibition seeks to create awareness among the public on various aspects of the medical disciple like why does plastic surgery get its name when it has no connection with plastic or what really happens in the body in a diabetic condition.
All the 30 departments of the Co-operative Medical College from Anatomy to Cardiology are participating in the exhibition.
Organs preserved in formalin and preserved dead bodies as a whole are on display apart from various disease conditions.
Experts in each subject would be present at the stalls to explain things that are showcased. At the general medicine stall in the exhibition, one can understand the different stages of diabetes and the working of the organ pancreas. A cirrhotic liver, tumour in brain, cancer in liver, blocks in blood vessels, brain of an Alzheimer's disease affected person are part of the items on display.
The exhibition is open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. till February 20. Schools that plan to bring students for the exhibition will have to take special tickets and the visit is restricted to mornings only.
