Health care bill extends wage tax to investments
WASHINGTON High-income families would be hit with a tax increase on wages and a new levy on investments under President Barack Obama's health care overhaul bill.
For the first time, the Medicare payroll tax would be applied to investment income, beginning in 2013. A new 3.8 percent tax would be imposed on interest, dividends, capital gains and other investment income for individuals making more than $200,000 a year and couples making more than $250,000.
The bill also would increase the Medicare payroll tax by 0.9 percentage point to 2.35 percent on wages above $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for married couples filing jointly.
The new tax on investment income is higher than the 2.9 percent tax proposed by Obama. House Democratic leaders increased it so they could reduce the impact of a new tax on high-cost health insurance plans strongly opposed by labor unions.
The 40 percent tax on health benefits would be delayed until 2018 and would apply only to premiums exceeding $10,200 a year for individuals and $27,500 for families.
The search for revenue to pay for health care has been made more difficult by Obama's campaign pledge not to raise taxes on the middle class. The result is a bill that would raise a total of $438 billion in new taxes over the next decade, mainly from high-income taxpayers and fees on the health care industry.
Taxing the rich to pay for health insurance would represent a significant departure from the way Americans have financed safety net programs in the past.
Both Social Security and Medicare are supported by broad-based payroll taxes. Although the rich pay more - they have bigger incomes - the burden is shared by the middle class and even the working poor.
"This is the problem with a $1 trillion bill," said Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan, the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee. "They've got to find all these ways to pay for it."
The $940 billion, 10-year health care bill would extend coverage to an estimated 32 million people who now lack it, while reducing the budget deficit by $138 billion over the next decade. The bill envisions billions in savings from Medicare to help finance expanded coverage.
Democrats argue that high-income families fared well under tax cuts enacted in the past decade, so it's time to pay up. Republicans argue that many of those taxpayers are small business owners struggling to stay afloat.
"I have no problem with it," Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., said of the new Medicare taxes. "Income is income. Most Americans work by the hour, get paid by the hour. Some other people get their money in other ways but it's still income."
Medicare payroll taxes traditionally have been low and predictable: a 1.45 percent tax on wages, paid by both employers and workers. The money is taken out of workers' pay before they see it. There are no forms to file, no deductions to claim.
Under the new health care bill, married couples with combined incomes approaching $250,000 would have to keep tabs on their spouses' pay to avoid an unexpected tax bill. Those with investments would have to pay even more attention to the income they earn from interest, dividends and capital gains.

Acoustic Alarm clock replaces buzzer with strings
Turning on the alarm, on the Acoustic Alarm clock
Setting the alarm time on the Acoustic Alarm
The Acoustic Alarm is a one-off alarm clock, that uses a motorized pic to pluck guitar strings in order to wake its user.
Article Summary
We've heard about alarm clocks that jolt you awake with 113 decibels of sound while shaking your bed, that won't stop ringing until you've done your exercises, or that you have to chase across the room. If you want to be woken in a more civilized, serene fashion, however, you might like the Acoustic Alarm – should it ever become commercially available, that is. Instead of an annoying beep, buzz or radio DJ, the one-off design exercise uses a motorized pic to strum four guitar strings, in order to gently rouse its user.

Obama to unveil climate plan in Tuesday speech
Monday - 6/24/2013, 10:48am EDT
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is preparing to unveil his long-awaited national plan to combat climate change in a major speech, he announced on Saturday.
"There's no single step that can reverse the effects of climate change," Obama said in an online video released by the White House. "But when it comes to the world we leave our children, we owe it to them to do what we can."
People consulting with White House officials on Obama's plan, to be unveiled Tuesday at Georgetown University, say they expect him to put forth regulations on heat-trapping gases emitted by existing coal-fired power plans. They were not authorized to disclose details about the plan ahead of the announcement and requested anonymity.
Environmental groups have been pleading with Obama to take that step, but the administration has said it's focused first on controls on new power plants. The Environmental Protection Agency, using its authority under the Clean Air Act, has already proposed controls on new plants, but the rules have been delayed -- to the chagrin of states and environmental groups threatening to sue over the delays.
An administration official said last week that Obama was still weighing whether to include existing plants in the climate plan. The official wasn't authorized to comment by name and requested anonymity.
The White House wouldn't disclose any details Saturday about what steps Obama may call for. But his senior energy and climate adviser, Heather Zichal, said last week that controls on greenhouse gas emissions from power plants would be a major focus. She also said the plan would boost energy efficiency of appliances and buildings, plus expand renewable energy.
Putting a positive spin on a contentious partisan issue, Obama said the U.S. is uniquely poised to deal with the serious challenges posed by climate change. He said American scientists and engineers would have to design new fuels and energy sources, and workers will have to adapt to a clean energy economy.
"We'll need all of us, as citizens, to do our part to preserve God's creation for future generations," Obama said.
Environmental groups have for months been pushing Obama to make good on a threat he issued to lawmakers in February in his State of the Union address: "If Congress won't act soon to protect future generations, I will." Obama's move to take the matter into his own hands appears to reflect a growing consensus that opposition in Congress is too powerful for any meaningful, sweeping climate legislation to pass anytime soon.
"They shouldn't wait for Congress to act, because they'll be out of office by the time that Congress gets its act together," Rep. Henry Waxman, the top Democrat on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said in an interview.
Environmental groups applauded the announcement that Obama was finally releasing a plan for executive action, but made clear they want to see firm proposals -- including controls for existing power plants.
"Combating climate change means curbing carbon pollution -- for the first time ever -- from the biggest single source of such dangerous gases: our coal-fired power plants," said Frances Beinecke, president of the National Resources Defense Council. "We stand ready to help President Obama in every way we can."
Another key issue hanging over the announcement -- but unlikely to be mentioned on Tuesday -- is Keystone XL, a pipeline that would carry oil extracted from tar sands in western Canada to refineries along the Texas Gulf Coast. A concerted campaign by environmental activists to persuade Obama to nix the pipeline appears to be an uphill battle. The White House insists the State Department is making the decision independently.
Obama's speech on Tuesday will come the day before he leaves for a weeklong trip to three African nations.

Faculty Profiles - Philosophy
Dr. Mark Sainsbury - Philosophy of Language
Thinking of Going to Graduate School in Philosophy?
You need to have a genuine passion for the subject to make this worthwhile. You might want to work for a Master's, or even a PhD, just for the pleasure of it, without thinking of Philosophy as a career. But be warned: most people who start out that way end up applying for posts in Philosophy. Peer pressure and addiction to the subject combine to bring this about. In good departments, most graduate students expect to end up teaching the subject at University level.
Competition for University level philosophy jobs is tough. Even if you get one, you then have to satisfy the requirements of tenure. These are difficult years: you are new to carrying a full teaching load, and yet have to write research papers to satisfy the tenure committee. When you get tenure, you'll be at least in your mid-thirties. What do you have? A relatively modestly paid job, but with substantial satisfaction in your work (teaching and research), and a considerable amount of freedom in setting schedules, not to mention those glorious entirely free months in the summer. I love it and would not exchange it for anything; but it's not for everyone.
How to Choose a School
The first step is simple: go to The Philosophical Gourmet Report. There's lots of advice on everything, from how to select a school to how to prepare your application. The rankings are not infallible, as the site stresses, but it's the best guide there is. After that, talk to your professors locally and see what they think.
Graduate Philosophy at UT
We have a thriving and very well regarded graduate program. The atmosphere is friendly and lively – there are always graduate students around the department to talk to and they will be happy to talk to you. We've been fairly successful with placement, and the students I know personally seem entirely satisfied. But don't take my word for it: they are listed on our website so email one or two working in areas that might interest you and ask how they are finding it.
My Own Story
I'm not sure if I should tell you this because someone with the attitude I had when young would never get a job today. I was indolent and arrogant and drifted into philosophy because it seemed easy. You can tell right there that something was seriously wrong – philosophy is very far from easy, and I've been struggling with its problems ever since. I was an undergraduate at Oxford (UK) and went on to do a doctorate (called a DPhil there, equivalent to a PhD elsewhere). I subsisted on temporary teaching jobs in Oxford before getting a tenured post at the University of Essex, and then at the University of London, and I came to UT in 2002. In Oxford's College system, one perk given to people teaching was free meals in College. My great good fortune was to meet two excellent philosophers at Brasenose College (Michael Woods and John Foster), who took me in hand, and quizzed me mercilessly on philosophical topics every lunchtime and over many dinners. This education was a turning point. I realized I needed to devote myself fully to the subject if I was going to have a worthwhile life, so I gave up many other things – gardening, chess, carpentry, home brewing, playing the violin, reading fiction – in order to focus on philosophy. You will likely have to do likewise! I'm immensely glad I did. I love the subject and love teaching it. Especially here at UT, my contacts with graduate students have been pure joy. They are so bright, and work so hard, and teach me things I didn't know. Aristotle said that your life is happy if, when asked what you want, the answer is "More of the same". That's all I want!

ASHBURN -- A 6-year-old boy nearly drowned in a pool over the weekend in Ashburn, officials with Turner County EMS confirmed Monday.
The incident took place at around 7:45 p.m. Sunday at 209 King Burgess Circle, interim Turner County EMS Director Curt Pylant said.
The child was found in a pool, after which his grandfather and an off-duty paramedic resuscitated him before the ambulance arrived, Pylant said.
"The grandfather and the off-duty paramedic did a great job," he said. "They probably saved this kid."
The child was taken to Tift Regional Medical Center. Pylant said Monday evening he was not sure of the boy's condition.

Faculty Spotlight
Sarah E. Harris, Writing Program Director and Assistant Professor of English
This is my second year here at IU East, where I direct our writing program and teach courses in composition studies from first-year writing up through our graduate certificate program. I moved here from Tucson, Arizona, where I earned a Ph.D. in Rhetoric, Composition, and the Teaching of English from the University of Arizona. I am still adjusting to real winters, so if you see someone extra bundled up, that's probably me! Say hello!
In addition to the Ph.D., I earned an MFA in fiction from West Virginia University, so I'm interested in writing of all types, from the creative to the technical. This year in the writing program, we're creating a new emphasis on composing with technology using multiple modalities, and I can't wait to see the interesting and creative projects students come up with! I couldn't do the work I do with the writing program without the help of our amazing faculty and staff, who always inspire me with their innovative teaching and ideas.
My research interests are focused on communities for writing, whether that's local or academic or online. This past summer I was part of a mentoring presentation at the national Council of Writing Program Administrators conference, helping to advise other new and future program directors. I've presented research at numerous national conferences, my creative writing has appeared in the journals SpringGun,Quarter After Eight, and NANO Fiction, and I've also been published in College English, in a special issue focused on creative writing studies research.
One of my favorite things about working at IU East has been the chance to get to know the community through partnerships with organizations like Girls Inc. and the Morrisson-Reeves Library. I love writing and talking about writing with members of our community, and I'm really looking forward to the chance to once again plan some workshops in Richmond for this November's National Novel Writing Month. If you missed these workshops last year, now's your chance to join us and get started on those ideas you always wanted to write about, and I'll hope to meet you at one of our workshops on campus or around town.
Student Spotlight
Kathryn Yohey
Kathryn Yohey is a senior double majoring in Secondary Education and English with a minor in Spanish. From a very early age, Kathryn knew she wanted to be a writer. With this in mind, at the age of five she sold her autograph to her grandma's coworkers because someday her signature would be worth something (Kathryn has no comment on her childhood ego). Her passion for literature has continued to grow due to her interest in seeing the written word as some sort of puzzle or message to be analyzed, interpreted, and absorbed.
While attending IU East, Kathryn has worked as a Supplemental Instruction (SI) Leader for Chemistry N100 and English W131, a Consultant in the Writing Center, and a Teaching Assistant for Chemistry N100 courses. Kathryn is the current secretary of IU East's Sigma Tau Delta Chapter (International English Honors Society), poetry editor of Tributaries, and a member in the Student Government Association (SGA). Kathryn has studied abroad in Argentina in May 2014 and completed a service learning trip in the Dominican Republic in November 2014. In the summer of 2015, Kathryn will study abroad in Costa Rica and will complete another service learning trip in the Dominican Republic in the fall of 2015. Upon graduation, Kathryn will pursue a career in teaching English abroad.

A little more fuel for the anti-premium fire … APN's New Zealand Herald is dropping the premium subscription service started by nzherald.co.nz in late 2005. The site relaunched last December with a two-month free trial for premium content access and Monday announced it was breaking down the paywall to archives and columns for good, according to m-net. Premium fees paid since December 14, 2006 will be refunded completely.
One reason for the shift: Jeremy Rees, the multimedia editor responsible for the site, told m-net that online advertising has changed considerably since the service launched. That changing online ad market is pushing other media outlets towards opening access — CNN recently made the same decision about subscription video — but some — think TimesSelect — are still pursuing a blended subscription-ad strategy.

Efforts to identify, seize and repatriate assets stolen from countries by corrupt leaders are underway across the globe. But as Attorney General Eric Holder stressed late last month, these cases don't come easy.
Canadian exploration and mining trade groups joined civil-society organizations, endorsing recommendations for the development of a payment disclosure standard for publicly traded mining companies in Canada.

R.A. The Rugged Man ft. Talib Kweli - Learn Truth
Artist: R.A. The Rugged Man
Featuring: Talib Kweli
Producer: Mr. Green
Album: Legends Never Die
Avg Rating: 4.1 ( 8 votes )
Having declared himself The Peoples Champ on his solo Booth debut, R.A. The Rugged Man returns to drop a little knowledge on the follow-up single off his sophomore set. The artist's first-ever collaboration with former Rawkus Records labelmate Talib Kweli, Learn Truth features the NYC underground mainstays delivering caustic commentary on a wide variety of societal ills—from street crime, economic exploitation and racist police brutality at home, to U.S. atrocities abroad. Mr. Green provides a pensive instrumental backdrop for their bars, flipping a sample from Public Enemy's Hazy Shade of Criminal on the hook. For this hard-hitting selection and many more bangers, check out Legends Never Die when it drops April 30, via Nature Sounds.

Recent Liquor license sales click here.
Because the Liquor Control Act does not allow for a convicted felon to own or be an officer on a liquor license this agency requires such persons to be fingerprinted to receive the background reports from the State and Federal level. Therefore the Federal Bureau of Investigation requires the following notice:
Applicant Notification and Record Challenge
Officials at the governmental institutions and other entities authorized to submit fingerprints and receive FBI identification records under this authority must notify the individuals fingerprinted that the fingerprints will be used to check the criminal history records of the FBI. The officials making the determination of suitability for licensing or employment shall provide the applicants the opportunity to complete, or challenge the accuracy of, the information contained in the FBI identification record. These officials also must advise the applicants that procedures for obtaining a change, correction, or updating of an FBI identification record are set forth in Title 28, C.F.R., § 16.34. Officials making such determinations should not deny the license or employment based on information in the record until the applicant has been afforded a reasonable time to correct or complete the record, or has declined to do so. (Title 42, U.S.C., §14616, Article IV (c); Title 28 C.F.R., § 50.12 (b))
Persons 19 and 20 years of age may only work in a restaurant environment and cannot be bartenders or cocktail servers. Only persons over 21 years of age may sell or serve alcohol in package stores, bars or lounges. A restaurant is an establishment whose primary activity is the sale of food and not the sale or consumption of alcohol.
No. Gambling is not permitted except as authorized under the Gaming Control Act – lottery tickets - and the Bingo & Raffle Act – certain non-profit clubs have pull-tabs and gaming machines that may only be played by members of the club.
Weekdays & Saturdays:
Holders of dispensers, restaurant, club and governmental licenses that have a current, valid food establishment permit may sell, serve or allow the consumption of alcohol by the drink on the licensed premise from noon until 10:00 pm or until meal service ceases - whichever is earlier - for Restaurant Liquor Licenses. When Christmas falls on a Sunday, sales are only permitted in those local option districts that have voted to allow Sunday Sales. There are no package sales allowed on Christmas Day.
No. It is a violation of the Liquor Control Act to sell or serve alcoholic beverages to a person who is obviously intoxicated if the server knew or should have known that the person was intoxicated.
A person must be at least 21 years of age to buy, possess or consume alcoholic beverages. It is illegal for anyone to sell, give or procure alcohol to or for minors.
SANTA FE – The New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department's Alcohol and Gaming Division today announced penalties against four establishments for over-serving alcohol to intoxicated customers who later became involved in drunken driving incidents resulting in four fatalities.
SANTA FE – The former owner of Mimbres Valley Escrow Services in Deming was arrested last week on criminal charges of embezzling nearly $822,000 from 12 Luna County residents.
SANTA FE - In an effort to better educate Spanish speaking alcohol servers and sellers about the dangers of over serving and serving to minors, the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department's Alcohol and Gaming Division has unveiled a new alcohol server online training in Spanish.

Expressing shock over less than 30 per cent conviction rate for cases of atrocities against SCs and STs, the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Monday asked State Governments to give more attention to the issue and said court cases related to such matters should be "pursued on priority".
"Reports of atrocities against SCs, STs and senior citizens continue to appear with disturbing regularity. I have in fact written to the Chief Ministers of all states recently to enforce the provisions of the SCs and STs (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
"It is shocking that conviction rate for cases of atrocities against SCs and STs is less than 30 per cent against the average of 42 per cent for all cognisable offences under IPC. The state governments need to give more attention to this issue," he said inaugurating a conference of state ministers of welfare and social justice here.
Dr. Singh told them to conduct meetings of state and district level vigilance committees on a regular basis and said that court cases should be pursued on priority.
Focussing on the need to change the general mindset towards disadvantaged groups, the Prime Minister said such people should be made equal partners in the developmental processes.
"We propose to amend the Persons with Disabilities Act in consultation with states so as to bring it in line with the UN Convention (on Rights of Persons with Disabilities)," he said.
Referring to the drought like situation prevailing in many parts of the country, Singh said, "the experience has been that weaker sections tend to be the worst affected by such natural calamities.
"We, therefore, need to step up monitoring and implementation of welfare schemes like NREGA, Annapurna and Old Age Pension Scheme, which target the weaker sections."
He said the government plans to take up a new scheme from this year on a pilot basis namely, 'Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana' for integrated development of 1,000 villages, each having more than 50 per cent SC population.
The scheme aims at implementation of various development projects in these villages, with an additional fund of Rs 10 lakh per village to meet those requirements that cannot be met from existing schemes, he said, adding that if the pilot scheme is successful, then it could be expanded.
On the mobility problems faced by disabled persons, the Prime Minister said educational and healthcare institutions, government offices and banks, should be made more accessible.
"Small steps like ramps... actually go a long way in this direction," he said.
Dr. Singh called on the Ministry of Communications and IT to promote development of user friendly software in all Indian languages.
"Our websites need to be more user friendly for disabled people and I am happy that the ministry for social justice has made a beginning in this regard. The National Institute of Design should be urged to encourage the design of everyday appliances and instruments that cater to people with various disabilities," he said.
With the economy emerging from its slowdown phase, the Prime Minister urged the corporate sector to "respond handsomely" to the scheme to promote employment of disabled persons in the private sector.
Referring to the self-employment scheme for rehabilitation of manual scavengers, a programme run by the ministry for social justice, he said, "I am told that more than half of the identified beneficiaries under the scheme are yet to be rehabilitated.
"States should be more proactive in implementing scholarships and hostel schemes for SCs, STs and OBCs."
He said disability certificates should be issued within a month of the date of application.
Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said focus of 11th Plan is on inclusive growth and both the Centre and the states should work together to achieve the objective of helping socially disadvantaged groups.
"In the Planning Commission, we have been implementing the SC sub-plan and are engaged with other ministries to ensure its implementation," he said.
Noting that the compliance of states was "not satisfactory", he said the Commission has written to Chief Ministers that their annual plans would be cleared only if they implement the SC sub-plan properly.
Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Mukul Wasnik said effectiveness of ongoing schemes must be enhanced and there should be a strategic partnership with civil society, industry and the government to provide social justice.

BT has stuck with the same design and the Home Hub 4 and you'll hardly be able to tell the difference between the two models. The only cosmetic change is a blue stripe across the front of the router instead of a black one. All the buttons, lights and ports are positioned in exactly same way.
The ISP's Infinity fibre broadband packages come with a free Home Hub 5 but existing customers can upgrade if they wish so read on to find out what's new about the router. See Group test: what's the best wireless router?
BT Infinity customers can get their hands on a Home Hub for free when upgrading to an Infinity package or recontracting. Alternatively, the router can be purchased from BT for a one-off £45 fee which is very cheap. See all Wi-Fi and networking reviews.
Setting up the Home Hub 5 is easy. If you've got an older model then you can simply swap the routers around and use the new wireless SSID and password assigned to the Hub 5. Otherwise it's a quick four-stage setup which you carry out in your browser which allows you to set up things like parental controls.
BT Home Hub 5: Upgrades
So far there's no major reason to upgrade to the Home Hub 5. It looks essentially the same and is easy to plug in, but the router has a number of internal upgrades which might make it worth your while.
For starters, the four ethernet ports on the back of the Hub 5 are now all Gigabit speed rather than just the one. This is good news for users who are plugging multiple devices into their existing router.
The Home Hub 5 is a consolidated VDSL modem and router. If that means nothing to you then in simple terms, it negates the need for a Home Hub router and a separate Openreach network box for fibre optic broadband.
It means you only need one device instead of two – saving space, plug sockets and power. You can simply plug the router straight into the wall socket; however, this isn't made clear in the booklet which is sent out with the Home Hub 5 or BT's website.
Upgrading to a Home Hub 5 doesn't mean that your internet speeds will get any better. We saw no difference in our tests using speedtest.net with Infinity 2 in ping and upload but we did see a small boost in download - only a few Mbps though.
Once again, the Home Hub 5 has dual-band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) Wi-Fi, but now has the latest 802.11ac technology. Smart wireless means the Hub 5 will choose which channel to use automatically (ideal one which isn't being used around you), although you can go into the settings and manually choose this if you wish. It managed this during our testing and the web users interface is easy to use if you fancy tweaking the Hub's settings.
We found performance over 11ac to be very good, managing 494Mbps file transfer at a short range of one meter and the speed barely dropped when we moved up to 10 meters. The upgrade price means this is the cheapest 11ac router on the market – the cheapest in our recent group test was the TP Link Archer C7 priced at just over £100.

Nutri-Med Logic Says that Regarding Prostate Health, a Recent Study is Shifting the Focus to Dietary Education.
Nutri-Med Logic says that research on an effective dietary education is past due for those with prostate concerns. Currently prostatitis affects around 15% of the men, clinical benign prostate hyperplasia around 20-40% and Prostate cancer remains the most common cancer in men, with the estimated 240,890 new cases and 33,720 deaths for 2011. (1,2,3)
Miami, Florida (PRWEB) August 28, 2011
Nutri-Med Logic Corp: The result of the experimental studies by the Health Science Center, a Department of Medicine at the University of Texas, San Antonio, Texas, USA, sheds new light on the benefits of an anti-inflammatory diet, more specifically Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), two Omega-3 fatty acids.
The study suggests that the fatty acids of Omega-6 (found in most food, especially red meat) indeed exacerbates the prostatic condition while Omega-3 would ameliorate.
Omega-6 is a pro-inflammatory polyunsaturated fatty acids and Omega-3 is an anti-inflammatory polyunsaturated fatty acids. The human body is incapable of making either Omega-6 or Omega-3, thus, both are transported to the body through diet (food).
The inflammatory marker used to measure prostatic secretions in men with Prostatisis is called Prostaglandin E2. (PGE-2).
PGE-2 is a derivative of Omega-6.
PGE-2 secretion plays a pivotal role in the inflammation of the prostate. In fact and indeed, PROSTAglandins were named after PROSTAte, initially believing that this local inflammatory agent was only synthesized in the prostate.
Studies have demonstrated that increased levels of PGE(2) activates another inflammatory growth factor called interleukin-6 (IL-6). (4)
The genes expressing IL-6 share a binding site with another protein called Nuclear Factor-IL6 and NF-KB. (5)
NF-kB is the body master switch of inflammation. The hyper-activity of IL-6 will result in hyperactivity of NF-kB, another word excessive inflammation.
Studies by the Department of Experimental Medicine and Oncology, University of Turin, Italy, suggests that NF-kB could be moderated by means of a suitable dietary ratio of Omega-3/Omega-6. (6)
In another word, Omega-3 (anti-inflammatory food) moderates the amounts of Omega-6 (inflammatory food). Omega-6 is found in most food but Omega-3 is mainly found in cold-water fishes.
In addition, EPA and DHA supplementation (Omega-3 diet) have been shown to moderate the synthesis of the prostaglandins type 2, replacing them with prostaglandins type 3, which have anti-inflammatory properties. (7,8)
In conclusion, Nutri-Med Logic Corp agrees with the study of Department of Texas but adds that because the study highlights both Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), the two important Omega-3 fatty acids, then a Balanced Omega-3, having 50% EPA, 50% DHA, without a doubt, should be the Omega-3 of choice for those looking for anti-inflammatory diet.
Nutri-Med Logic Corp is a producer of dietary supplements, including a Concentrated and Balanced Omega-3: having the same concentration of EPA and DHA of Omega-3, 50% – 50%.
DHA of Omega-3, also, offers beneficial properties mainly for the brain, nervous system and EPA of Omega-3, additionally, offers beneficial properties in cardiovascular system.
Nutri-Med Logic's products are Formulated Based on Nutritional Logic, made from the highest quality raw materials that are manufactured in pharmaceutical facilities, encapsulated in pharmaceutical facilities and, also, packaged in pharmaceutical facilities.
It must be noted that the studies, sources or statements, above and below, have not been evaluated by The FDA and, thus, one should not relate the cause of any diseases, stated herein, to lack of Omega-3 dietary supplementation; nor equate its supplementation to prevention, treatment or cure.

Re: Sand Shoal Inlet, VA --- Channel information?
Here's some additional information I just PM'd to the OP:
The small harbor behind the Coast Guard Rescue Station silted in many years ago and I had trouble getting a 21-foot Pro-Line center console fishing boat in and out of that area. There was a deep pocket in front of the old CG launch skids, but I'm pretty sure it's gone as well.
If the wind is coming from the southwest, which would be normal this time of year, there's a good anchorage near the mouth of Running Channel, which is a bit farther inside Cobb Bay on the south shore. The bottom comes up pretty quick there, so watch your depth finder closely.
Ramshorn Channel is completely protected, very deep, but the problem there is the tidal currents are incredible, probably exceeding 6 knots in some places.
Lots of good anchorages along the edge of Mockhorn Channel south to Magothy Bay, but this is one of those areas where local watermen tend to run down the channel at higher speeds and hit you with monster wakes at the crack of dawn.
The Magothy Bay area is a neat place to explore in a small boat, but unfortunately, unless your mast height is less than 40 feet you cannot pass beneath the Route 13 Bridge to Fisherman's Island. Many, many years ago I was able to easily navigate Smith Island Inlet, but that's completely silted in now and part of the surf line between Smith and Fisherman's islands.
During a really bad blow, some sailboats will seek safe harbor at the basin at Oyster. The channel is just 3-feet at low tide, and the basin is just 5-feet deep at low tide. At high tide depths at both locations can be as much as 10-feet. The bottom is black, sticky, gooey mud that almost requires a power washer to get it off the anchor and chain.
A little history on this area, 10,000 years ago, when the town of Oyster and the barrier islands didn't exist, this was ocean-front property. The sand dunes are still there, separating the town from the tidal marsh, and people frequently dig among the dunes to find ancient, native American artifacts.
Good Luck,

The level of river Arno is very high at the Ponte Vecchio on November 13, 2012 in Florence. The heavy rains left four victims in Tuscany with three of them found in a car. (AFP PHOTO / CLAUDIO GIOVANNINI)
ROME: Flooding in Italy claimed the life of a Syrian-born doctor out visiting a patient and forced hundreds of people from their homes, as the search continued for a man reported missing, Italian media reported on Monday.
The 66-year-old doctor, Elias Kassabij, was carried away by the floodwaters from a swollen stream near the port of Genoa in northwest Italy, while the father of the young patient he had been visiting was rescued.
Emergency workers near the city of Modena were looking for man who reportedly took to a dinghy on a canal amid heavy rain to help some stranded people and fell into the water in the night between Sunday and Monday.
Some 600 people were evacuated from their homes around Modena because of flooding. They were being put up in local hotels or medical facilities, the reports said.
Several roads in the area have been blocked off.
Torrential rains have already caused around 100 landslides and rockfalls in the Liguria region around Genoa, forcing the derailment of a train linking Italy and France on Friday in which two people were injured.

Johnsburg The town of Johnsburg has 13 town-maintained cemeteries. That's a lot of grass to cut; too much for the town's Buildings and Parks Department's one full-time employee and one part-time employee.
The town has little control over the number of cemeteries it must maintain. As Deputy Town Clerk Jo Ann Smith explained to the Town Board at its meeting Tuesday, April 3, many of the cemeteries were long-ago abandoned by their original owners. By state law, the town is obligated to take care of them. That's a situation that doesn't sit well with some in the town.
"This cemetery thing needs some historical perspective," said resident Bob Nessle. "They were private … generated by either churches or families … and the state in its infinite wisdom decided that the taxpayers had to pay to take care of them."
Nessle suggested the town pass a law saying that any new cemeteries have to have a perpetual care fund set up so that the town doesn't get stuck maintaining them at taxpayer expense.
Town Supervisor Ron Vanselow agreed that the situation is an unfortunate burden on the taxpayers of the town. But he said his goal Tuesday was to come up with a plan to keep the grass mowed this summer and not take on the state over its abandoned cemetery law.
Vanselow said it was critical that the town have a plan in place in time to get the grass cut before Memorial Day weekend when the cemeteries will see a relatively high number of visitors.
In past years, the town has employed a variety of methods, including contracting the job out to a private entity, using temporary summer help to cut the grass and utilizing town staff from the Building and Parks Department to do it.
Tuesday there was no shortage of ideas. Some suggested having town crews work at it and supplement their efforts with some part-time help, perhaps in the form of the town's young people out of school for the summer. Others cautioned against that approach because of age restrictions for using power equipment.

=== Dallas confirms Diaz to miss 6-10 weeks === Frisco, TX (SportsNetwork.com) - FC Dallas confirmed on Wednesday that midfielder Mauro Diaz will undergo surgery on his right knee next week, ruling him out for the next 6-10 weeks. The 23-year-old left his team's match against D.C. United on April 26 shortly before halftime with the injury, and he missed FCD's 1-0 loss to Red Bull New York on Sunday. Dallas originally believed the injury was not serious, but after further tests, the team has confirmed that Diaz will require surgery. After arriving in Dallas as a Young Designated Player last summer, Diaz has enjoyed a strong start to the 2014 season with three goals and three assists in eight matches. The club is also expected to be without defender Kellyn Acosta for the next six weeks because of his own knee injury. 05/07 14:41:48 ET

Plan XVII
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2007)
Plan XVII (pronounced: [plɑ̃ dis.sɛt]) was the name of a "scheme of mobilization and concentration" that was adopted by the French General Staff in 1913, to be put into effect by the French Army in the event of war between France and Germany. Though it was not "a prescribed narrative for the campaign" or battle plan,[1] the deployment made possible a prompt invasion of Germany and/or Belgium before Germany could mobilise its reserves - one simultaneous to the Russians' invasion of East Prussia.[2]
Following the defeat of the French armies during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71, the French military had to adapt to a new balance of power in Europe. The emergence of the German Empire on the other side of the Rhine, combined with the loss of Alsace and Lorraine, seriously weakened France's strategic position.
In 1898, the French general staff adopted Plan XIV. Taking into account the numerical inferiority of the French Army, Plan XIV was an offensive strategy along the Franco-German border. Besides the increasing disparity in population (by the turn of the century France had a stagnant population of around forty million, compared to fifty million Germans) there was also the problem of reserves. The war of 1870-71 had demonstrated the ability of the German general staff to make use of the German railway network to deploy its armies and its capability to quickly mobilize its reservists into front-line units. While the French general staff began to apply the lessons of the use of railways, the question of using reservists in front-line units was not resolved. Plan XIV did not take reserves into account.
In 1903, Plan XIV gave way to Plan XV. While still defensive in character, Plan XV did consider using reserve formations, although in a subordinate role.
Plan XVI of March 1909 placed greater emphasis on the risk of a German attack through Belgium, and was modified in 1911 by Général Joseph Joffre.[3]
In 1911, however, an attempt was made by General Victor-Constant Michel, Vice-President of the Conseil supérieur de la guerre and designated supreme commander in case of war, to revert to a defensive doctrine; Michel anticipated a massive assault by the Germans through Belgium, and therefore suggested to counter-attack them rather than go on the offensive immediately. This was rejected by the Minister of War Adolphe Messimy and the other members of the Conseil (among which Joseph Gallieni), also because it called, to defend the whole northwest border, to employ the reserve formations in frontline service.[4][5] Michel's suggestion was dropped altogether and he was removed.[6]
Details and justification[edit]
Joffre presented Plan XVII in 1913. Unlike other plans, it was a plan to concentrate French forces close to the Franco-German and Franco-Belgian border but did not include a fixed military strategy,[7] though with the intent of launching a (counter-)offensive into Belgium and/or German Lorraine.[8]
Plan XVII enacted[edit]
When Germany declared war in 1914, France began the execution of Plan XVII with five initiatives, now collectively known as the Battle of the Frontiers:
- Battle of Mulhouse - (7–10 August 1914)
- Battle of Lorraine - (14–25 August 1914)
- Battle of the Ardennes - (21–23 August 1914)
- Battle of Charleroi - (21–23 August 1914)
- Battle of Mons - (23–24 August 1914)
The German deployment plan used in 1914, Aufmarsch II, included a concentration of most German forces (bar 20% to defend Prussia and the German coast) on the German–Belgian border and was used to execute an offensive into Belgium in order to force a decisive battle with the French Army.[9]
Plan XVII was implemented as an offensive into both Alsace-Lorraine and Belgium. The French attack into Alsace-Lorraine resulted in worse losses than anticipated as successful attacks called for far closer artillery-infantry co-operation than French doctrine (despite its embrace of the "spirit of the offensive") provided for. The attacks of the French forces in southern Belgium were conducted with negligible reconnaissance or artillery support and so were repulsed without preventing the German forces' western movement.[10]
Within a few weeks the French were back in their starting positions, having suffered great losses. Meanwhile, the Germans had advanced against resistance through Belgium and northern France and were just thirty kilometres north-east of Paris. Only the fact that the German attack outran its supply lines, and that Joffre was able to use French rail-lines to move his retreating forces and re-group them behind the river Marne and within 'Fortress Paris' faster than the Germans could pursue, allowed the French and their British allies to reverse the already-faltering German advance with an artillery-heavy French counter-attack in the First Battle of the Marne.[11]
In 1914 Moltke, Chief of the German General Staff, essentially attempted to apply the offensive strategy of Aufmarsch I (plan for an isolated Franco-German war, allowing 100% of German forces to be deployed against France) to the inadequate western deployment of Aufmarsch II (which allowed only 80%) to counter France's Plan XVII offensive. In the words of the Australian historian Terence Holmes:
Moltke followed the trajectory of the Schlieffen plan [sic], but only up to the point where it was painfully obvious that he would have needed the army of the Schlieffen plan [sic] to proceed any further along these lines. Lacking the strength and support to advance across the lower Seine, his right wing became a positive liability, caught in an exposed position to the east of fortress Paris.[12]
