Acupuncture in 63109 - is it right for me?
Acupuncture is based on the concepts of oriental medicine or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. Lindenwood Park, Princeton Heights and Saint Louis Hills - Saint Louis acupuncturists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat the many conditions, aches and pains that respond to acupuncture.
Acupuncturists insert very fine acupuncture needles into a number of trigger points on your body. The purpose of the needles is to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians. The needles do not inject any substance into your body and are so fine as to be virtually impossible to feel. In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.
'Accupuncture' and 'Accupuncturist' are common mis-spellings.

An explosive conclusion
- Gaming News | PC | Previews | PS3 | PS4 | Screenshots | Xbox 360 | Xbox One
The final chapter of Call of Duty: Ghosts' epic DLC season is set to come to a close with the four and final piece of content, Nemesis.
Set to release on August 5, 2014 for the Xbox One first, Nemesis continues the tradition set by the first three DLC pack, introducing four new multiplayer maps as well as concluding the brilliant narrative of the DLC.
The new maps featured in Nemesis are all smaller to medium sized maps, details of which can be found below:
- Goldrush: is set in an abandoned gold mine in the Southwest United States, where an intricate network of cavernous tunnels and perilous shafts create the ideal setting for medium to long range combat; while two mine carts race along the abandoned tracks offering players a fast way to traverse the map. Players who complete the unique field order on Goldrush will unleash a howling pack of wolves that will descend upon their enemies.
- Subzero: drops players into a frigid Canadian submarine base that has been hastily evacuated, with control room, submarine pen and research facilities all left eerily empty. Built around the traditional three-lane design, this medium-sized map harbors a mysterious terror that will decimate your enemies upon completion of the map's unique field order.
- In Dynasty, players are transported to a lakeside Chinese village surrounded by picturesque mountains, vivid gardens, and spectacular architecture – a serene environment that is anything but Zen-like. Multiple pathways crisscross the village in this medium map with a variety of elevation and numerous back alleys that create flanking routes. The unique field order on "Dynasty" allows players to call in an air strike of vertical takeoff fighter jets, while one lingers behind to give you unmatched air superiority.
- Nemesis cranks the frenetic multiplayer action to unprecedented levels with the fourth multiplayer map, "Showtime," a sadistic reimagining of the smallest map in Call of Duty® history, the fan favorite map from Call of Duty® 4: Modern Warfare® "Shipment." In the futuristic arena of "Showtime," blind corners and narrow pathways provide momentary reprieve from the outright mayhem within the central square comprised of several shipping containers. Tight confines call for shotguns and SMGs. Survive long enough to be rewarded with one of three killstreaks: lethal automated gun turrets at key locations on the map, an air drop with multiple care packages or a deadly gas attack that forces the action back into the center of the arena.
In addition to the news regarding the maps featured in Nemesis, a considerable amount of screenshots have been released, showing off the environments of each. These images can be found in the gallery below.

TV Fashion: Horatio Caine from 'CSI: Miami' (CBS)
Luckily, he grew up to be the very well-dressed and well-respected head of the
Even so, Miami is a tough place to be fair-skinned and not look as if you just got off a flight from Montpelier, Vt. Aside from the requisite SPF 50, Caine takes the luxurious approach to attire that says, "I had no intention of sweating anyway." Nicely fitted single-breasted suits and sport coats in navy, black or deep slate gray - we're sure he'd be quick to point out that dark colors help hide blood spatter - add an air of authority in a town where Bermuda shorts and a simple smile would be much more appropriate for the climate. And humidity? Caine smirks at the very thought of humidity.
Labels of choice for "CSI: Miami" costume designer Andrea Federman include Hugo Boss, Dolce & Gabbana,
As for accessories, even though Miami embraces hot flashes of gold and silver, Caine plays it cool with a minimalist approach; sunglasses are his only noticeable embellishment. Small, simple shades with superdark lenses add to the mystery and provide the necessary protection from those Dade County ultraviolet rays. Plus, when he slips them on, slowly and deliberately, they add to that dramatic moment when he's solved the crime and gets to unload an eye-rolling cliche. Somehow they actually add to his smugness.
How can it be so hot and Caine remain so cool? The fact that he looks as guilty as any of the criminals he catches certainly must just be a weird coincidence, right?

The Giving Triage
Shira Hirschman Weiss | Posted 08.15.2012 | Impact
We often feel compelled to give, whether it is a material item or an hour of listening time to a friend in need. However, when it comes to giving, are we secure in our motivations and how we've prioritized?
The concept of "paying it forward" is one of the best aspects of a random act of kindness -- all it takes is one person and one good deed to start a c...

I had bought this mascara a couple of years ago and I decided to try it out again because I read so many positive reviews.
I don't like the results from this mascara. I experienced next to nothing in terms of volume and the formula is so soupy that it was hard to apply without it getting on my eyelids. I did see some lengthening, but it was hardly spectacular.
Pretty disappointed by this product, actually. Mediocre length, no volume and a wet, messy application. Would not purchase again.

I bought Rimmel's Lash Accelerator to try out some cheap lash growth mascaras! Unfortunately, my asian lashes did NOT experience any lash growth after a month's worth of using the mascara. However, all is not lost because I find that the wet formula of the Lash Accelerator mascara paints the upper crease below the eyelids very, very nicely ;-) You just need a lash brush and you need to wipe some of the product on the lash brush. Then wiggle the brush where the crease is and you get a lovely, darkening effect to compliment your eyes and whatever else mascara you use! I would buy Rimmel's Lash Accelerator mascara again JUST for crease darkening purposes.

I have 3 Rimmel mascars on rotation right now, and I have to say I love this one the most. I havent been using it long enough to notice any growth, but it applies like a dream, isnt clumpy, and makes my lashes appear longer and fuller without messy fiber tubes. Its very easy to apply and take off, but it doesnt smudge or run during the day. I have yet to have a bad experience with Rimmel mascaras.

So i decided to buy this when i noticed a little eyelash bald spot that i just wouldn't be able to coverup with an eye-lash combover :P so i'm not exactly sure if this REALLY helps your eyelashes grow, but might as well try right? So i don't use the same mascaras consecutively, so haven't noticed TOO much growth yet and it's been about a month since i purchased this. But other than that factor i love this mascara. I rarely give out 5/5 ratings but i definitely think this mascara earned it. For me the depth of black was perfect and the brush, although strange looking, is really good. The shorter bristles are good for lower lashes and the thicker bristles are amazing for length and volume. You can get even the smallest on inner eyelashes covered with this. The packaging is a metallic lemon-lime color, which surprising for a girl who loves her spa pale greens and blues, really likes. It makes it easier to find in the depths of a purse and has a unique flare to it.I don't need to reapply during the day. I really, really like this and hope that the growth thing works!

This is my HG mascara. I've always had a problem with my eyelashes shedding particularly since I've been a daily user of mascara for many years, but this one keeps them strong and healthy, I haven't had any lashes falling off since I started using it many months ago, so it is ideal for everyday use. I have average-length lashes with average volume and this gives me a great day-time look for the office. If I need a little more 'oomph' I just apply a second coat after a couple minutes, and I'd curl my lashes beforehand. But generally I save my bad-ass volumnizer mascara for special evenings, and use this one for any other occasion. Oh I love, love, love the price too! What else can I say, it's cheap and it works for me, so far the only mascara in its price range that keeps my lashes strong, prevents hair loss, while serving its purpose as a mascara. I also haven't had problems with clumping and it's pretty easy to wash off (I use vaseline to remove mascara before washing my face).

I am a total mascara snob, having tried everything on all ends of the spectrum--I was a huge fan of L'Oreal's ACCENTUOUS mascara back in the day and cry all the time it never came back--used it for years and swore by it--and had gone thru tons of disenchanted mascaras, from DIORSHOW to clinique to LANCOME to all the cheapie ones--and stumbled across this in extreme black--and I'm a happy mascara snob again :) I HATE big bushy brushes, I hate clumps, I like a smaller brush that separates and coats each lash and sorta stretches it out as you sweep the brush across--and this doesn't bother my eyes at all. I can't abide waterproof mascara with all the fibers dropping in my eyes, but this one lasts ALL day and removes well with eye makeup remover :) It's not waterproof, but wears very well :)
I LOVE this, and most of the time can get this at drugstores for buy one get one half off--so I stock up and store away :)

Generally, I like this mascara.
On my lashes I find it lenghtening, but not volumising. It separates my lashes well, and doesn't really ever clump, which I like.
When I first bought it and started using it, the formula was VERY RUNNY, which on the one hand was great because it was really easy to evenly and nicely coat my lashes and they looked really black but natural (I have the black cap one btw). But on the other hand, God forbid you blinked AT ALL the first good minute or two after applying it, or you'd end up with smdged mascara everywhere!!! It is really easy to swipe off though, and I do find it's the easiest mascara to take off in the evening, out of all I've ever tried - which I love. But this also means that it does smudge a bit during the day, initially at least. I do have sensitive eyes and they get runny in the wind though, so maybe that's just on me.
Once you've used it a bit and it gets drier, it doesn't smudge as much, if at all.
As for the lash growth, I've used this for a good 2-3 months now and haven't noticed any improvement, but my lashes do seem healthier. I think though this is not because of the mscara itself, but because it's so easy to take off so my lashes don't fall as I remove my makeup, which means they grow for longer.
This is about £9 here in the UK. Would I repurchase? Not sure, because the fact that it's so runny and smudges so easily does really annoy me.
EDIT: Just repurchased this - I'd missed having a mascara with such a light formulation. I guess I'll just have to wait till it gets a tiny bit drier!

I LOVE this product. For all of you who don't believe a mascara can increase lash number or length, you are completely wrong. I wish I had taken before and after pictures, because the difference was jaw dropping. The first couple weeks of using this product slowly transformed my lashes.Even without wearing mascara there was a noticeable difference.
After a couple of weeks it stopped working ( but honestly if it had continued working my eyelashes would have just looked ridiculous). But the mascara works really well after the lash growing effect has worn off. I swipe this on, slightly wiggling the wand back and forth and twirling upward. After they dry I use the tweezerman lash comb, combing first with the comb facing down and then comb the lashes up. To be honest, if I didn't comb my lashes it probably wouldn't look very good, because without combing this mascara tends to clump.
The process takes a good amount of time. I mean, I can't just swipe this on and go. The extra time doesn't bother me though, the extra work is definitely worth it. I am a lash perfectionist, I need long lashes with zero clumps and zero gaps which is almost impossible to get without some work.
I have not noticed any flaking during the day. However, when I comb little flakes of mascara come off, so I just grab a fluffy brush and wipe them away. Maybe the combing gets off any flakes that would fall off during the day? but I obviously don't know for sure.
I curl at the base and halfway down my lashes with a shu uemura curler, and I have not noticed my lashes losing any curl because of this mascara.
I have gone through about 4 tubes of this. Definitely my HG mascara, I am sure that as long as they make this I am going to keep going back to it.

I love this product because i see a growth difference. I naturally have very thick long eyelashes (i know i know, dont hate) but this product actaully made them thicker. When putting it on, i use two coats and boom, my lashes look fake. I have to admit that this mascara doesn't have the same affect on my sister's lashes, and she has very thin lashes. I believe this product is good on people with naturally thick lashes.

Saw this mascara on a YouTube video and had to get it. I ordered it on drugstore.com for $8 which is a bargain for the quality. I have used numerous high end mascaras which do not compare to this one. My lashes are pretty long by themselves so I look for added volume and darkness mostly in a mascara. This mascara adds both beautifully plus gives me some added length. This mascara in carbon black is a staple in my makeup regimen.

Governor to Make Major Speech in Tulsa Next Week
TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Gov. Mary Fallin plans to make a State of the State address next week to business leaders in Tulsa.
The governor scheduled the address for noon Tuesday at the Tulsa Convention Center.
Fallin will make the address two months after the Oklahoma Legislature declined to back her plan to cut the state's income tax. The governor told The Associated Press in an interview afterward that she believes lobbying swayed some lawmakers away from eliminating tax credits and exemptions to pay for the income tax cut.
Fallin said in the interview that she'll work with members of the House and Senate this summer and fall to build consensus on a tax cut before the Legislature convenes in January.

Fibre-optic hopes for East Africa
31 October 2011
The fibre-optic broadband finally linking East Africa in 2009 was a massive multi-million-pound investment, but the expectations are just as substantial. Three submarine fibre-optic cables form the backbone of the high-speed network, which is hoped to spark the region's economy.
Prime ministers and presidents throughout the region have claimed that the cables will play an integral part in the economic development of their countries, and Jakaya Kikwete, President of Tanzania, sees them as a way of making East Africans "become part of the global economy".
Transformative event
"The arrival of fibre-optic cables has been generally perceived as a hugely transformative event. There seems to be a lot of optimism that East African businesses will now be able to compete globally without some of the hindrances that they used to face," says Dr Mark Graham at the University of Oxford.
Dr Graham is leading a research project aiming to chart the change and the effects on the region, funded by ESRC and the Department for International Development. The promises of Fibre-Optic Broadband: A Pipeline for Economic Development in East Africa is tracking the impact of the technology transition while it is unfolding, focusing on three economic sectors: eco-tourism, tea production and business process outsourcing.
Last major region without fibre-optic access
The project focuses on Kenya and Rwanda, both cited as countries where information and communications technologies (ICTs) will have significant transformative effects. Both have national development plans ("Vision 2030" and "Vision 2020" respectively) that aim to transform those countries into middle-income economies. And in both cases ICTs are presented as being integral to these transformations.
The ICT optimism is not surprising, given the scale of change. East Africa was the last major region on Earth without fibre-optic broadband Internet access, forced to rely on slow and costly satellite connections for access until 2009.
Transferring cash with mobiles
But although the hopes are high, there isn't much data available to base confident predictions on, explains Dr Graham.
"The M-Pesa money transfer service in Kenya is perhaps the most visible and influential example that can be pointed to. It has allowed people all over the country to easily transfer cash using their mobile phones - something which is especially useful for the millions of people that don't have bank accounts," he says.
"ICTs undoubtedly have the potential to enable important economic transformations, but it remains to be seen what the actual effects of altered connectivity will be in both countries. This is what we hope to find out with our research," adds Dr Graham.

With age comes wisdom-and miniskirts, pom poms, and some rad stunts. The Sun City Poms are a cheerleading squad comprised of ladies of a certain age-if you are under 55 don't even bother trying out. They were established in 1979 at the massive Sun City retirement community in Arizona and now perform 50 shows a year including at the Fiesta Bowl. British photographer Todd Antony crossed paths with them while working on a landscape project of the American West and was smitten. "They were effervescent and fun," Antony tells Yahoo Shine, "while also being very professional about getting their poses correct." The Poms do pyramids, high kicks, pinwheels (where three teammates flip another), and other risky stunts. Shooting one training session, Antony said he was nervous when one woman got stuck ¾ way into her split, "it seemed no one in the group was particularly concerned by this and looked on for some time as she got into to position where she could actually stand up again." Antony will be releasing more pictures of the amazng Poms this fall. -Sarah B. Weir, Shine senior writer

Kathleen Horan, Reporter, WNYC News
Kathleen Horan is a staff reporter for New York Public Radio, covering the neighborhood beat. She also reports 'Reset', an ongoing series documenting police-community relations in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
Kaiim Vieira was born in a Brooklyn hospital 18 years ago today. He grew into a six-foot-two teen who had a knack for getting folks to laugh even when they didn't want to. He used to call his mother by the nickname "Muffin."
A week and a half ago, Kaiim was shot 10 times and killed after an altercation on Fulton Street in Brooklyn. It was less than three miles from where his own father was gunned down 14 years ago.
"My son became another statistic, and that was something I said he would never be," said Kaiim's grief-stricken mother, Iasia Tyre, through tears.
Since Kaiim's death on September 14, his large extended family has banded together at his aunt's apartment in the Gowanus Houses to make arrangements, stay on top of the police investigation and, more than anything, comfort each other. A big part of that has been sharing stories about Kaiim.
Tyre, 37, said her son, who was known for his goofy dancing and joke telling, got his sense of humor from his father.
"We went out to eat one time and [father and son] were sticking candy in their nose," she recalled. "The two of them -- doing the same thing."
In March 1998, their joyous days abruptly ended when Kaiim's father, Trevor, was shot and killed by an acquaintance in the East New York section of Brooklyn.
Kaiim was 3-years old and didn't understand that his father was dead.
"He would ask me every day, 'Did daddy wake up yet? Did daddy wake up yet?'" Tyre said, admitting that she was filled with guilt that Kaiim had to grow up without his father.
Tyre went back to school to get her Master's degree to better her family's life and get them out of public housing in Queens. She began working for the Administration for Children's Services, the city agency that aims to protect the city's kids from abuse and neglect.

But she said trying to teach her own son about surviving painful episodes like getting beat up was the most challenging job. Tyre said the cruelty of the streets caught up with her son and he started to get in trouble.
He had a knife pulled on him and had a tooth chipped in fight by the time he was in high school, she said.
Tyre drove Kaiim to and from school, met with teachers, counselors — and eventually judges — but everything she tried ultimately failed to protect him.
"I'm supposed to save people's children but I couldn't save my own," said Tyre, her voice cracking. "And that hurt. And I tried. I tried."
Tyre vows to move to Maryland to give Kaiim's younger brother a chance to grow up far from life-interrupting violence.
"I give myself two months and I'm leaving," she said. "I refuse to raise another child in NYCHA. I refuse to raise another child in New York City."
Tyre is planning to visit her son's gravesite at Rosehill Cemetery in Linden, N.J. today.
She'll be releasing 18 balloons in honor of Kaiim's birthday.
A year has past and we are still at a standstill, no witnesses have come forward even though there were allegedly 3 persons with Kaiim. There is motive, there are suspects, no one has been questioned. Can anyone help with how I can get the Detectives to move their feet before this is just another teen from the hood gone. I miss my grandson so much.
I miss this kid so much it hurts! Never in a million years would I have thought this would've happened to anyone I knew, let alone the one I called brother. A year later and the pain is grater-how could such a horrible feeling be magnified?!?! My heart is broken. God knows I don't understand why, why you? why our family? why your mother? She is the last person who deserves any pain. All I have left of you are memories, pictures, & one pair of pants...what I wouldn't give for you instead.
I am so sorry for Kaiim's family. We are failing the residents of NYCHA. I don't know the answer. But to lose two generations in one family, from gun violence shows a systemic problem that can't be tackled by one determined mom.
It sounds like she did everything she possibly could to do right by her son. But in the end, you can't control the world that your children will live in. That's not the responsibility of one mother, it's the responsibility of all our city residents.
New York City has become for some residents a Newtown in slow-motion. I hope this series can do something to bring the death of these kids into the fore of people's minds.
@JoeyVieira Thank you for your comment. Per your request, we've passed along your contact information.
This is Trevors brother,I'm sorry to hear about the loss of my nephew an the sad part is I never knew I had a nephew named Kaiim.
He didn't deserve to go so soon not like this but I love you Smiddy r.i.p people always ready to pull out a gun I guess that's how they was going to defend there self cause they know you were a fight :* I love you so much bestfriend
Let's not pretend that merely presenting tearjerking stories and having people cry over them is the answer. The problem is that there is such an uproar over "stop-and-risk" because it "targets minority youth." It is misguided and misplaced to pretend that gang violence and street crimes do not happen in the neighborhoods that certain people want to keep the police out of. It hurts people who have to live in those ghettos and housing projects to not have any kind of surveillance over what is happening on street corners and outside of schools or buildings. Would it have been worse if this young man had been stopped and frisked , or at least questioned, than getting shot by gangs or getting caught up with them?
I know what muffin is going through i been in her shoe i loss my son three years ago at the age of 17 over a gun shot the pain does not go away but in due time it will ease down because i talk to god an ask him to help me get through this. If it wasn't for my daughter i dont how i would have made it. I love and miss my son so much if i can turn the clock around just to see him again i would. They have to stop with these guns an get them off the street because i wouldn't want to see nooooo mother lost their child over guns. Please we have to stop this foolish killing each other. I will continue praying for muffin and her family because i feel her pain god look ove her like u do with me give her strength to move bless her heart an keep her strong in the name of jesus Amen. SIP Kaiim
I know the mother of the slain young man Kaiim. Ms Tyre and myself attended high School together and I always hear great stories about her son. I am truly sorry for her loss. She is a great mother and I pray she has comfort in knowing that he is in a better place. R.I.P. Kaiim!!
Thank you WNYC and Kathleen Horan for bringing this tragic yet achingly beautiful story to myself and my family. We appreciate it so much and know firsthand how close the call is that "it could have been one of us" as my teen son travels to high school in Newark, NJ daily.
Kaiim and his mother are deeply affecting people and the grief over this loss is both told and sensed so intensely and poignantly. Here was a diligent,industrious mother sacrificing and striving to raise a well-loved, grounded and happy young man, only to see all the potential evaporate in an instant. How ? Why ?
What happened to everything we used to be? How can these tragedies have become the coin of New York's realm? Are we so hardened in our hearts against our children?
Who can say what to do to rectify these circumstances?
My deepest sympathies to the family and my best wishes as you bear this
anguish. I hope your memories of the years that you were blessed to have your beautiful and joyful son comfort you. My family and I are praying for you.
Thank you for sharing this story.
Heard this story this morning and I cried; I lived in Brooklyn and could not take all the "excitement" and moved to Jersey because I wanted the best for my only son. Kaiim mom is a tropper and getting out is the best thing she can do. My heart goes out to the family.
So incredibly heartbreaking.
Jesus Christ! So sad. RIP little one. My heart goes out to Mom and the rest of the family!
I have a nephew, who's two years old. His father's not in the picture, so it's up to me to be a role model to him and steer him away from bad elements, let alone bad people.
So very sad :( Heartbroken for the family Kaiim leaves behind and for their tremendous loss, twice. Happy Birthday Kaiim, wherever you are... hopefully with daddy now. Hugs and condolences for Iasia and her family.
This is a remarkably important series. Just when I think WNYC cannot get any better. It does. Bravo.
Poor lady, she has aged beyond her short 37 years. My heart breaks for this family.
May he rest in peace
What a beautiful boy and a tragic, horrifically sad story. My deepest empathy goes to Miss Iasia and her family- both for the loss of Kaiim and his father...my son is 3, worships his father, I can only imagine the family's pain in that loss- and now the loss of Kaiim. If positive thoughts from strangers help- I hope the Tyre's will feel me thinking of them as they celebrate Kaiim life today, work through their grief and move forward to Maryland. All the best to Miss Iasia!!!
This story made me cry. Cry for the waste, and the loss. Guns, violence, drugs corrode neighborhoods, families and take lives.
WNYC, please continue this series. New York City, please force this series to be unnecessary.
Thank you for doing this important series. It reminds us that every person is uniquely and infinitely precious, and that anyone's suffering should affect us all.
The NRA, Mitt, and specially Ryan do not want their guns taken away. While "recreational" shooters fight for their right to bare arms, other have to fight against not wanting gun in their neighborhoods, but unless all give up their WEAPONS, nothing will get done. The production of fire arms is a HUGE business, so unless a very large percentage of the population reaches out and make their support for gun control heard, nothing will change and more children and innocent people will continue to die.
Something needs to be done about gun in this country and world. Its too easy to get one and use it. I am not condoning fighting but in the years before all these gun violence and weapons, you fought with your hands and you won some and you lost some, but you lived to see another day. With guns there no thinking, you pull the trigger and walk away. This very sadden to hear a young man looses his life when its only just beginning.
Heart breaking.

On Nov. 17 in Los Angeles, Filipino-American Brian Viloria will find himself in the ring with a flyweight version of heavyweight bad boy Mike Tyson.
Viloria faces hard-hitter Hernan 'Tyson' Marquez, who has vowed to put an end to Viloria's recent domination of fellow Mexican fighters.
On the line will be Viloria's World Boxing Organization title and Marquez's World Boxing Association crown in one of the year's most awaited showdowns among small men who hit big.
''I feel great and I am motivated for this fight with Viloria,'' Marquez (34-2-0 with 25 KOs) told the Mexican media during a break in his massive buildup at the Oxnard Gym owned by one of boxing's rising trainers, Robert Garcia.
Viloria (31-3-0 with 18 KOs) has racked up three straight wins over Mexicans Julio Cesar Miranda, Giovani Segura and Omar Romero, prompting some members of the boxing fraternity to label him as the 'Mexicutioner.'
Marquez is displeased and wants to put a halt to Viloria's winning ways.
But Viloria, who is back training at the Wild Card Boxing Club of Freddie Roach, doesn't have intentions of losing that coveted tag as he is punishing himself in training.
Viloria is one of four reigning Filipino world champions. The others are WBO light-fly king Donnie Nietes, WBO super-bantam ruler Nonito Donaire and International Boxing Federation light-fly titlist Johnreil Casimero.
Meanwhile, Mexican banger Jorge Arce will have an ace up his sleeve when he challenges pound-for-pound fighter Nonito Donaire on Dec. 15 in Houston, Texas.
Arce has acquired the services of Hall of Fame trainer Ignacio 'Nacho' Beristain, the maker of over 20 Mexican world champions, including the Marquez brothers Juan Manuel and Rafael.
Mindful of Donaire's skills, Arce is hooking up with Beristain to help him nullify or even cut back on the Fil-Am puncher's overall advantage in craftsmanship.
''With Beristain in my corner, I will be even more confident because (his presence in my corner) is the best I can possibly have,'' said the 33-year-old Arce as quoted by the Mexican media.
Arce said he understands his role as the huge underdog in his 12-round showdown with Donaire at the Toyota Center but is using it as a motivation.
''I fight a lot better when I am the underdog,'' said Arce, who boasts of a 61-6-2 win-loss-draw record with 46 knockouts.
Arce has actually been training the past few weeks at the Romanza Gym in Mexico City under Beristain's eyes.
Donaire, fresh from beating up Japanese Toshiaki Nishioka four weeks ago, has a 30-1-0 card with 19 knockouts.
Donaire and Arce are going to face off Thursday (Friday in Manila) when Top Rank head Bob Arum hosts a press conference at the Toyota Center to formally announce the marquee matchup.
Donaire, who turns 30 on Nov. 16, has so far won three fights this year.

HoopsHype Herb Simon rumors
With the Indiana Pacers languishing in public perception and on the court in 2007, team co-owner Mel Simon approached his brother and co-owner Herb about selling the team, according to a lawsuit filed in Colorado. Bren Simon, Mel Simon's widow, is suing the Internal Revenue Service in U.S. District Court for return of $21 million that she paid in protest. She contends the IRS improperly interpreted money Mel received from an ownership reorganization of the Pacers in 2009 as a gift. Indianapolis Star
The Pacers' ownership reorganization, according to the lawsuit, came after Herb Simon wanted to retain ownership and Mel Simon grew tired of funding losses for a team "hemorrhaging cash." The lawsuit says the team's 2004 brawl at a game in Detroit, where players entered the stands to confront fans, started the franchise's financial troubles. It mentions subsequent player arrests as causing the team to become "a civic and family embarrassment." Indianapolis Star
Indiana Pacers owner Herb Simon said he would personally be fine with bringing back Lance Stephenson in a trade, however the judgment would be up to the front office. "I'd be OK with it but it's not up to me. Larry (Bird) has to decide if he fits," Simon told The Star prior to Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Indianapolis Star
Several deciding factors would determine the Pacers' interest in Stephenson, said Simon, and a huge consideration would be chemistry. "First of all, we don't know if they're really trading him, at least I don't know," Simon said about the Hornets. "I know they made some calls and we would have to (figure out) how he fits back into the team. Those are all basketball decisions and Larry and Kevin (Pritchard) are the best to answer that. "We have the best basketball minds in Larry Bird and Kevin Pritchard and they're working on it every minute of every day. So, something will happen." Indianapolis Star
Bill Reiter: Members of NBA committee that will begin process of trying to strip Sterling of team: Micky Arison, Jeanie Buss, Clay Bennett, Jim Dolan Wyc Grousbeck, Peter Holt, Robert Sarver, Herb Simon, Larry Tanenbaum and Glen Taylor. Twitter @foxsportsreiter
Herb Simon: "I wholeheartedly endorse Commissioner Adam Silver's swift, strong and decisive action with regard to Donald Sterling. These past days have been both sad and disturbing for the NBA family. It is our responsibility to continue as models of the diversity and inclusion the NBA has long and justly represented." NBA.com
Scott Agness: Pacers owner Herb Simon is very proud of his team's 18-3 start. "It's been enjoyable. Last night wasn't much fun though." Twitter @ScottAgness
There are 12 other NBA owners on the list, including Kroenke (Nuggets), Micky Arison (Heat, $5.9 billion), Dan Gilbert (Cavaliers, $3.9 billion), Charles Dolan (Knicks, $3.3 billion), Tom Gores (Pistons, $2.7 billion), Mark Cuban (Mavericks $2.5 billion), Josh Harris (Sixers, $2.5 billion), Robert Pera (Grizzlies, $1.95 billion), Herb Simon (Pacers, $1.95 billion), Donald Sterling (Clippers, $1.9 billion), Glen Taylor (Timberwolves, $1.7 billion) and Benson (Pelicans). ESPN.com
Mark Montieth: Herb Simon has no immediate plans to sell team, to Bird or anyone else. Story coming on pacers.com. Twitter @MarkMontieth
Larry Bird, who took a year off to deal with physical issues and to clear his mind, agreed Wednesday to return to the Pacers as the organization's top man. He will start Monday. "He's got plenty of rings of his own, now I want him to win one for me," Pacers owner Herb Simon told The Star. "He's got his energy back, his health back and he's raring to go." The Pacers will formally announce Bird's return in a press conference at 10 a.m. Thursday. Indianapolis Star
Do you have a timeline for the possibility of Larry Bird returning as president and when that situation might be handled? Herb Simon: "I think it'll be resolved shortly. I'm sure he's thinking about it. We'll see what happens. I'll be in next week and we'll try to get things resolved. I'll be coming in for the draft and we'll be spending some time and we'll talk about a lot of things." NBA.com
Walsh hasn't talked to Bird in more than a month, since the Pacers went deep into the playoffs. Should Bird wish to return and an agreement can be made with owner Herb Simon, Walsh said he's prepared to step away. A three-headed monster with Walsh, Bird and Pritchard would be just that, and wouldn't be good for the organization. Pacers.com
Tuesday night, we pointed out the immense enthusiasm one courtside Pacers fan had following Lance Stephenson's buzzer-beating shot to end the third quarter in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Turns out she has more than just a rooting interest in the franchise. Sarah Simon is one of Pacers owner Herb Simon's eight children. She apparently gets very, very into the team's games. For The Win
Walsh said yesterday he would return if Bird doesn't and owner Herb Simon wants him to. "I like this but I don't need to do it,'' Walsh said. Walsh said he will definitely run the draft in June. The Pacers general manager is highly regarded Kevin Pritchard. Last month, in a visit at the Garden, Walsh told The Post, "I took this job because Larry [Bird] wanted a year off. If Larry wants to come back, I'm out. I'm leaving.'' New York Post
Walsh said he feels Bird might want to make a comeback after resting his bad shoulder. Walsh said yesterday he would return if Bird doesn't and owner Herb Simon wants him to. "I like this but I don't need to do it,'' Walsh said. Walsh said he will definitely run the draft in June. The Pacers general manager is highly regarded Kevin Pritchard.

The 12 owners on the NBA's relocation/finance committee will make the recommendation on the future of the Kings: • Peter Holt, Spurs (chairman of the board of governors) • Micky Arison, Heat • Clay Bennett, Thunder • Jeanie Buss, Lakers • James Dolan, Knicks • Wyc Grousbeck, Celtics • Ted Leonsis, Wizards • Greg Miller, Jazz • Robert Sarver, Suns • Herb Simon, Pacers • Larry Tanenbaum, Raptors • Glen Taylor, Timberwolves Sacramento Bee
Yes, many franchises have sold for more than that over the years. But the Silnas haven't had to pay a single coach, player, usher, secretary, PR person or janitor a dime since 1976. That $250 million is pure profit. "Worst deal in the history of sports," lamented a team official of one of the teams Friday, "and unfair to start four teams in the hole every year ... it's an issue that no one really wants to deal with except the four teams, so it kind of keeps getting pushed to the exterior." Pacers owner Herb Simon told Forbes Magazine last year, "something went wrong somewhere. The intent of the deal was not to have it in perpetuity. It was to compensate them for the loss of their franchise. It's just an egregious situation now." NBA.com
If the Silnas had had their way in the '70s, the source said, their franchise would have been brought into the NBA, and they most certainly would have sold the team by now -- and likely for less profit than they're clearing now. "These guys have gotten over unbelievably," the source said, "and you'd think they'd say, 'What a great deal,' and they'd leave it at that." NBA.com

The House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on the Constitution held a hearing earlier this week on "Can We Sue Our Way to Prosperity?: Litigation's Effect on America's Global Competitiveness." Speakers included a public policy expert from NERA; a law school professor; and my friend, esteemed litigator John Beisner.
Paul Hinton testified that the direct cost of the U.S. tort system is estimated to be approximately $250 billion in 2009 or about 2 percent of GDP. The U.S. costs are the highest as a percent of GDP amongst those reported for other industrialized countries and more than double the estimates for countries such as the U.K, France, and Japan. Small businesses bear a relatively larger share of tort costs than larger businesses.
Professor Silver from Texas tried to make the case that the civil justice systems contributes greatly to the prosperity of the U.S. He seemed to think that litigation is the only thing that deters doctors from committing widespread medical malpractice.

Dr. Kachnic has been awarded funding as an NCI principal investigator and is the 2008 recipient of the first RTOG "Next Generation Investigator" Award.
The new work, published in the February 21st issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, also offers insight into SELECT results that found vitamin E supplements alone increased prostate cancer risk, but the combination of vitamin E and selenium did not.
The case-cohort study was led by Alan Kristal, Dr.P.H., of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. A press release from that institution quotes Kristal as saying "Men using these supplements should stop, period. Neither selenium nor vitamin E supplementation confers any known benefits – only risks."
The Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial, or SELECT, enrolled more than 35,000 healthy men from 2001 through 2003 to test whether vitamin E and selenium supplementation, either alone or in combination, could lower prostate cancer risk. The study was closed early because it became clear the supplements provided no benefit. Long-term follow-up on the study found that vitamin E supplements increased men's prostate cancer risk by 17%.
The National Cancer Institute, which funded the SELECT study, has updated it's authoritative SELECT Questions & Answer page to incorporate these latest findings.
Long-term results of SELECT were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in October 2011.
Researchers on the SWOG S0500 clinical trial sought to learn whether elevated CTC levels soon after starting chemotherapy could be used as an early indicator -- earlier than other indicators such as clinical evidence of progression -- that the given therapy was not working and that it was time to switch to an alternate treatment. They found that though an elevated CTC level (>= 5 cells per 7.5 mL of blood) at a first follow up visit after starting chemotherapy was associated with a poorer prognosis for the patient, switching at that early point to an alternate chemotherapy regimen did not generally prove beneficial to these patients.
Read the SABCS press release.
Patrick Stiff, MD, director of Loyola University Medical Center's Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center and lead author on the NEJM paper, said this finding "hopefully will trigger discussions between such patients and their physicians as to the feasibility of doing early transplants."
The study was developed by the SWOG cancer research cooperative group and funded by the National Cancer Institute. Stiff is chair of the SWOG Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation Committee.

"The combination offers a new standard for first-line treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer," says lead study coordinator Rita Mehta, M.D., of the University of California, Irvine Medical Center.
The study surveyed 5,499 patients
who registered with an online treatment decision tool.
In the end, 7.6 percent of survey takers with an annual income below $50,000
reported participating in clinical trials, while 10.0 percent of those with incomes of
$50,000 or more said they took part.
The study's principal investigator,
Maha Hussain, M.D., F.A.C.P., of the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer
Center, presented the results at the plenary session of the ASCO 2012 meeting in Chicago.
"Based on these results," Hussain says, "we can conclude that intermittent AD is not as

text: A lot of money will be spent on educating people in regards to weed. Same goes for alcohol and tobacco. If you haven't been hearing about the increased DUI emphasis patrols and the "Suck It" tobacco campaign you haven't been paying attention. I'm just glad I don't live in a state that still feels it needs to throw someone in jail for having a couple of doobies in their pocket. Imprisoning someone for such a minor offense is a major waste of resources in my opinion. Very sad deal about the hunter. SF

What is Neurocysticercosis?
The ailment of traffic chief Sylvan "Jack" Jakosalem – neurocysticercosis – is a preventable parasitic infection from pork tapeworm (Taenia solium), according to the website of the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC).
The disease may also be prevalent for persons who eat undercooked, infected pork meat.
Once inside the body, the tapeworm's eggs hatch and become larvae that find their way to the brain.
Some common signs of infection include seizures like epilepsy as well as severe headache, said the US National Library of Medicine website.
There are treatments involving anti-parasitic drugs but this is highly debatable , the agency said, because some of these drugs may expose patients to higher risks.
The disease can be fatal when the infection is at its most severe level. Treatment may involve brain surgery.
Neurocysticercosis is acquired by eating food contaminated with the feces of hogs infected with tapeworm.
Poor hygiene and food handling is the ultimate cause of such infection, says the US National Library of Medicine website.
Eggs of tapeworm, usually intestinal pork tapeworm, are shed in stool and contaminate food.
When these microscopic eggs are ingested and exposed to gastric acid in the human stomach, they lose their protective capsule and turn into larval cysts, called oncospheres..
According to the US agency, oncospheres cross the gastrointestinal tract and migrate through the vascular system to the brain, muscle, eyes, and other structures.
Once in the brain, the larval cysts first generate a minimal immune response and may remain in the brain as viable cysts for years. /Dale G. Israel, Senior Reporter

Ladies get a big win
Mon, 10/07/2013 - 11:22am admin
Staff Writer
Ken Francis
The Big Lake girls soccer team has been playing some of its best soccer of the season over the past week.
That showed earlier in the week when the Hornets knocked off the top seed in the sections, Maranatha Academy, 1-0 at home Monday.
In the 30th minute Kallie Nordberg launched a rocket from the 40-yard mark just under the upright for the game's only goal.
"This is my fifth season coaching at Big Lake. I have been waiting for all this time to see such beautiful soccer played," said Coach Mike Turner. "Tonight we got a glimps of just that. We controlled the tempo of the entire game, both with the wind and against the wind. We let our passing and the ball do all the work."
It was passing and teamwork that put the game away. Freshman Avi McGregor was a big part of the team's play.
"Her foot skills are a thing of beauty," said Turner. "Then team her up with Kallie and our 1-2 punch is starting to click."
In the second half, the Hornets looked to shut all play down - controlling the tempo enough to dictate the play and slow play in order to preserve the lead.
"We called on Madie Mathiason to mark their most dangerous threat. She did a stellar job," said Turner. "At the end of the game the referee shook my hand and said "now that was beautiful soccer!" I am very proud of the way this team is coming together. They are a fun bunch to watch."
Maranatha was 9-3 going into the game, and sitting in the top seat in sections with the best record.
The game was also senior night, and all five seniors, Casey Tillman, Kallie Nordberg, Brittney Paulson, Caitlin Engberg, and Madisann Sayler started and played some of their best soccer.
Last week, Big Lake lost to Chisago Lakes, 4-2.
"It was a tale of two halves. In the first half the score was 2-0 Big Lake," said Turner. "We had the wind and the will."
The first goal came from a beautiful cross outside the 18 from Nordberg to a running Michaela Trutna for a tap-in goal. Later in the first half a long 30-plus yard screamer from Kallie Nordberg cleared the goalie's fingertips to put Big Lake up 2-0.
"The second half was a cluster of mistakes... falling back into old habits, fighting the wind and playing a very hungry Chisago Lakes team," said Turner. "They scored four unanswered goals to close out the game, 4-2."
Tuesday, Big Lake lost to North Branch, 2-0.
After a scoreless first half, Turner made some wholesale changes that didn't pan out.
"Our offense was almost non-existent, so I switched a couple of key players from their normal positions. North Branch exposed the weakness then set up on it for two goals in the second half," said Turner. "We could have tied 0-0, but I hoped to get a bit of fire power into the offense. Hats off to North Branch, they out-coached, out-hustled and outplayed us."
Thursday, the Hornets narrowly missed another win, settling for a 1-1 tie at Rockford.
Casey Tillman scored in the second minute on a cross from Samantha Harbeck. The game stayed that way until Rockford scored on a free kick in the 73rd minute to tie the game.
"This was the first time this team has ever played on a turf field. We looked fantastic. I am very proud of the way we played. Had we not given up a free kick in the danger zone in the last seven minutes, this could have been ours," said Turner. "Kallie Nordberg and Avi McGregor looked like they had played together their entire life. Kalee Kitzman also played out of her mind, sealing up the defense. Give and go's, triangle passing, through balls, this was a great way to play to end the season and head into sections. If all goes well, we should be seeded fourth in sections and look to host a couple of games in section finals."
The Hornets finished the regular season at 5-9-1. Section play begins 5 p.m. Tuesday.

Somashekar urges those residing in unauthorised structures not to move away
'Centre has failed to tackle farmers' problems'
BANGALORE: The Janata Dal (United) has decided to launch a struggle seeking possession certificates for slum-dwellers, regularisation of unauthorised structures on government land by poor people and regularisation of unauthorised cultivation of government land by small farmers.
Announcing this at a meeting of leaders from slums organised by the party to raise awareness among them about their rights, party's State unit president B. Somashekar urged those residing in unauthorised structures in urban areas not to move away.
Mr. Somashekar, who was Revenue Minister in the J.H. Patel Ministry, said that he had changed the rules under Section 94 of the Land Grant Act to provide for regularisation of unauthorised structures on government land and to extend the deadline for regularisation of unauthorised cultivation. Though the Patel Government came out with a notification in this regard, successive governments did not implement the regularisation scheme, he alleged. Senior leader of the party Michael Fernandes the Centre had failed to tackle the issues which forced farmers to go to moneylenders.

I have a list of about 100 people who get my monthly PDF newsletter.
Instead of BCC-ing everyone I want to generate an individual email for each person saying "Dear John, Hope you're are doing well? Here's my latest newsletter attached."
Is there a program out there that will take a long list of emails and generate individual emails like that, which I can then send through Outlook Express or Thunderbird?

Thanks for that. I`ve two problems in that I have three databases of people from which I select the relevant recipients. One mailing might go to about 350. The other problem I have is data protection - we have a policy of not providing personal information to third parties!
