Gay activists and their allies, from Mumbai to New York, united for a global protest against India's Supreme Court ruling that brought back a law banning gay sex.
'This Judgment is not about any one community in any one country but about the hegemonic structures that oppress many across the world,' according to the official Day of Rage Facebook page.
People in 40 cities expressed disapproval of the 11 December ruling that returned Section 377, a colonial era anti-sodomy law.

The Chicago White Sox baseball team has begun publicizing 'LGBT Pride Night: Out at the Sox' and some of their fans are not happy about it.
The Major League Baseball franchise announced on its Facebook page that it will hold the evening on 16 August when the team takes on the Toronto Jays.
It resulted in immediate complaints.
'Shoving homosexuality on your fans is over the line,' wrote Devin Garcia in the comments section. 'This makes me want to turn my back on the White Sox.'
Anthony Donovan, who described himself as a 'Life time Sox Fan' wrote that he will be no more.
'This here is simply a Money Grab, how pathetic I mean really...let the boycott begin cause they will no longer be my team of choice...THEY GONE!'
Eric Frohriep wondered: 'When is white male night? Do we really need an event for every belief and ethnicity?'
Jared Sabin agreed.
'When is the Straight Pride night going to be?' Sabin wrote. 'If it's all about equality then let's make it across the board.'
Scott Harper asked: 'Shouldn't who we are in the bedroom with be a private matter? I don't understand why people feel they need to shout from the mountain top what there preference in bed is. Just my opinion.'
Doug Mitts called the event 'ridiculous and so unnecessary.'
'It is preposterously over the top,' Mitts wrote. 'There is no call or reason for this. Why does an MLB team need to have a night calling attention to people's sexual choice and preference?'
The slew of negative remarks resulted in backlash from other fans who are supportive of the event.
'I hope you ignorant people are not breeding and teaching your children such drivel,' wrote Melanie Hall.
Todd Sigeti described the anti-gay posters as 'jerks (who) are an absolute disgrace to humanity.
'Hey, look... it's a bunch of people whining because a baseball team is holding a night for people who aren't liked by an ignorant section of a religion. I don't see any whining about Jewish Heritage Nights, or Latino Heritage Nights, etc. Why should this be any different?'
Sigeti added: 'And to those "Where is straight pride night" people... come back to me when you can point out a time when straight people were persecuted and alienated because of their orientation. I'll give you a hint and save you time: IT'S NEVER HAPPENED. EVER.'

Non-invasive brain stimulation enhances fine motor control of the hemiparetic ankle: implications for rehabilitation

We set out to answer two questions with this study: 1. Can stroke patients improve voluntary control of their paretic ankle by practising a visuo-motor ankle-tracking task? 2. Are practice effects enhanced with non-invasive brain stimulation? A carefully selected sample of chronic stroke patients able to perform the experimental task attended three data collection sessions. Facilitatory transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was applied in a random order over the lower limb primary motor cortex of the lesioned hemisphere or the non-lesioned hemisphere or sham stimulation was delivered over the lesioned hemisphere. In each session, tDCS was applied as patients practiced tracking a sinusoidal waveform for 15 min using dorsiflexion–plantarflexion movements of their paretic ankle. The difference in tracking error prior to, and after, the 15 min of practice was calculated. A practice effect was revealed following sham stimulation, and this effect was enhanced with tDCS applied over the lesioned hemisphere. The practice effect observed following sham stimulation was eliminated by tDCS applied over the non-lesioned hemisphere. The study provides the first evidence that non-invasive brain stimulation applied to the lesioned motor cortex of moderate- to well-recovered stroke patients enhances voluntary control of the paretic ankle. The results provide a basis for examining whether this enhanced ankle control can be induced in patients with greater impairments and whether enhanced control of a single or multiple lower limb joints improves hemiparetic gait patterns.

BRIAN HOWEY: Pence hopes to soar above ugliness on way to victory
It had been nine years since Mike Pence had run and brawled for a Congressional seat, twice unsuccessfully challenging U.S. Rep. Phil Sharp.
His friend, U.S. Rep. David McIntosh, was planning to run for governor. What became the 6th Congressional District would be open. At his gubernatorial campaign kickoff in Columbus in June 2011, Pence recalled a vacation horseback ride in Colorado in 1999 when he pondered a return to Congressional politics with his wife, Karen. The couple spotted two red-tailed hawks drafting in the winds above the mountains. He would run once more, they decided, but "no flapping." They would "soar."
What has become clear in his gubernatorial race against Democrat John Gregg is that Pence is going to keep his sunny, good mood demeanor and "soar" with a warm and fuzzy message, a bank account double that of his opponent, and when it comes to taking the gloves off, Mike Pence the "good cop" will rely on "bad cop" surrogates to bloody up his opponent.
Appearing the Indiana Black Expo last week, Pence told Amos Brown, "We're going to continue to put out a positive message about aspiration. We can build a better Indiana. It's about aspiration for every community in the state."
Thus, this week Pence released his fifth feel-good TV ad focusing on jobs. Seated with Karen, he talked about jobs pumping gas and baling hay, and then "I found myself out of work. We got through, tightening our belts." He added that he wants Indiana to be known "everywhere as the state that works."
"I know the pain of losing a job," Pence tells a state with a persistent 8% jobless rate. It was the first time in nearly a year the state's jobless rate increased as nearly 266,000 people were without work in data adjusted for seasonal swings in employment. "We're kind of going sideways right now," said Anthony Sindone, a continuing lecturer in economics at Purdue University North Central.
The Gregg campaign responded to the new Pence ad, saying, "After two and a half months of commercials, Mike Pence finally mentioned jobs for the first time in his latest ad. Unfortunately for Candidate Pence, Congressman Pence's record shows that he has voted against jobs for Hoosiers time and time again."Congressman Pence has no credibility on this issue," said Daniel Altman, communications director for Gregg for Governor. "His commercial says he will protect Hoosier jobs, but as Congressman he has voted time and time again to give thousands of Hoosiers the pink slip."
That was followed the next day by a broadside from the GOP "bad cop" — in this instance, Indiana Republican Chairman Eric Holcomb — who accused Gregg of "embellishing" his record as Indiana House speaker. He took Gregg to task for taking a $1.7 billion surplus and converting it into a $760 million deficit. "I am not going to let an embellished record stand on its own," Holcomb said, standing in front of a placard that said "we can't afford John Gregg (literally)."
But the emerging dynamic is that Pence is going to stay above the fray and project his sunny message while surrogates will do the dirty work.
As president of the Indiana Policy Review Foundation in 1991, Pence wrote a tome titled "Confessions of a Negative Campaigner" in which he discussed the gutter brawl tactics he used against Rep. Sharp in 1988 and 1990. One of the Pence campaign TV ads had an actor posing as an Arab thanking Sharp for American dependence on foreign oil.
"Negative campaigning, I now know, is wrong," Pence acknowledged.
What Pence does not do is characterize his article as an apology, describing it in 1991 for the Muncie Star Press as a "confession, an admission, a personal indictment. That's the extent of it."
The Holcomb attack was seen by Indiana Democrats as the current dynamic. "Part of that stems from the fact that Mike Pence doesn't want to run a negative campaign," Indiana Democratic Chairman Dan Parker told WISH-TV, "so he's going to have Eric do it."
The strategy will likely work if Pence can maintain a big poll lead. In the only independent media poll taken in the race — the March 26-27 Howey/DePauw Indiana Battleground Poll — Pence had a 44-31% lead over Gregg. Pence's hard favorability stood at 32% and his hard negative at 20% (compared to 10/4% for Gregg, who was unknown by 71% of the likely general election voters surveyed).
Pence was unknown by 30% at that point in the Howey/DePauw Poll, so the clear Pence strategy in the five TV ads he has run since the May 6 primary is to gin up his name ID with the series of bio ads.
Gregg has been forced to rely almost exclusively on earned media, though Parker said he expects Gregg to begin his TV ad campaign before Labor Day. When he does, Gregg faces two huge challenges: To define himself, and redefine Pence, whom he has consistently characterized as a radical and "extremist" on social issues.
Gregg also has to hope that Pence slips up, like heavy favorite Stephen Goldsmith did in 1996 with his mishandling of the Meridian Street police brawl, allowing Frank O'Bannon to pull off a stunning upset.

Barcelona - Catalonia's regional government says Formula One's Spanish Grand Prix is "under question" due to economic difficulties.
Spokesman Francesc Homs was quoted as saying on Tuesday that budget debts have forced a rethink about hosting the annual F1 race and MotoGP's Catalunya GP in the future.
Homs says the regional government is ready to share its spot on the calendar with Valencia, which has hosted the European GP since 2008. Valencia is also looking to renegotiate its contract with F1.
F1 has raced at Montmelo since 1991 and is under contract to 2016.
Homs says both GPs will go ahead as scheduled this year. The Spanish GP is on May 13 and MotoGP's is on June 3.

When you lose TRICARE, you also lose your minimum essential coverage under the Affordable Care Act. You can avoid paying a fee for each month you don't have coverage. Here are your options:
TRICARE is always the second payer to any other health insurance (OHI) plan. After a divorce, if your child has health insurance from the non-uniformed service parent, then TRICARE can still act as a second payer. If your child visits the uniformed service member, TRICARE is still the second payer, so make sure your child has the OHI information to get care away from home. >>View Custody Scenarios
Review your OHI and TRICARE options carefully, to make sure you have the best coverage for your child.>>Learn More about using TRICARE with OHI

A number of courts throughout the nation are grappling with disputes between employers and departing employees over the ownership of social media accounts. These employers are attempting to seek ownership over company Twitter and LinkedIn profiles claiming, among other things, that these contain "trade secrets." Employees dispute these contentions by pointing out that there is nothing "secret" about social media profiles and that employers have no inherent property interests in Twitter and LinkedIn accounts.
All employers who profit from their employees' use of social media should be aware of and carefully analyze these issues. In many cases, a properly drafted agreement delineating the property interests of employee work product will save employers from time-consuming and expensive litigation over ownership of social media accounts.

Jail not answer for ill son
Letters to the editor for Dec. 26, 2013: Mental health; La Jolla smell; spent nuclear plant fuel; desalination
The government plan to build an interim facility seems to be an unnecessary step since the existing interim storage on site is close to the design for an interim storage facility.
Regardless of how we move forward with interim storage, however, the risks are negligible, and the distraction of worrying about this really minor issue detracts from the really big question of how to get carbon-free energy for our state with the loss of San Onofre.
Bill Hannaman
Scripps Ranch
Region should be investing in desal
A letter writer (Dec. 20) opposes desalination because brine is discharged back into the ocean. He is concerned it may affect marine life. The Amazon alone discharges 60 million gallons of fresh water a second, into the Atlantic, and has been doing so for centuries without reducing the salinity of the oceans. Environmentalists tell us the polar ice caps are melting, and the fresh water may reduce the salinity of the oceans. The addition of brine into the ocean may be a good thing. The oceans are all connected.
Countries like Israel, Dubai, Australia and New Zealand all use desalination, with no problems with sea life in those areas. Southern California needs more fresh water and until it can be positively shown that desalination is causing a problem, we should be investing in desalination. The only reason we do not have more desalination plants is because of government rules and regulations.
If we cannot get water from Northern California, from where do we get it?

PND in Fathers - How Do Maternity Services Really Measure up?
The professionals, the midwives and the health visitors - the first port of call for mothers and fathers after a birth - are in agreement that PND does exist in fathers.

Boston University College of Fine Arts to Webcast First Orchestral Concert from Boston's Symphony Hall
Sunday, November 21, 7:30 p.m. EST on www.bu.edu/cfa/totenberg100
BOSTON, Nov. 18, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — For the first time ever on Sunday, November 21, a live orchestra performance will be webcast with video from Boston's historic Symphony Hall. Featuring the Boston University Symphony Orchestra, the concert will celebrate acclaimed violinist and longtime faculty member Roman Totenberg's 100th birthday. Production staff from the BU School of Music will work with Productive Media and Sound Mirror to stream high quality audio and video from the entire concert live on the CFA website (www.bu.edu/cfa/totenberg100) on November 21 at 7:30 p.m. EST, with the complete footage also available afterward on BUniverse (www.bu.edu/buniverse).
"More people listen to classical music now than at any other time in history, but concert halls and opera houses are no longer the only places to reach music lovers," said Benjamin Juarez, dean of the BU College of Fine Arts. "New York's Metropolitan Opera and the Berlin Philharmonic were the first to reach out to their audiences and develop new ones in this way, and soon other iconic institutions followed suit. We're proud to join these musical pioneers by making the first live orchestral cast from Boston's Symphony Hall."
Still an active teacher, Totenberg joined the BU School of Music as Professor of Music in 1961, and his extraordinary talent as a solo violinist has paralleled his passion for teaching and mentoring countless musicians. The concert will feature the Boston University Symphony Orchestra, conductor David Hoose, and violinist Peter Zazofsky, in performances of Beethoven's Prometheus Overture, Bartok's Violin Concerto No. 2, and Elgar Symphony No. 1 in A-flat. National political commentator Cokie Roberts will host a special tribute to Totenberg. Concert details and tickets are available at www.bu.edu/cfa/totenberg100.
Founded in 1839, Boston University is an internationally recognized private research university with more than 30,000 students participating in undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs. The Boston University College of Fine Arts was created in 1954 to bring together the School of Music, the School of Theatre, and the School of Visual Arts. The University's vision was to create a community of artists in a conservatory-style school offering professional training in the arts to both undergraduate and graduate students, complemented by a liberal arts curriculum for undergraduate students.

Three fish.
There lived three big fish in a lake. They were close friends, but quite unlike one another.
One of them was wise whatever he did was after careful thought.
Another was intelligent and resourceful. For any problem he had, he would use his brains and find a solution. He was ever cheerful.
The third fish believed in fate. Whatever was to happen? Would happen, and nobody could stop it.
One day, the wise fish was leaping about in the water. The heard a fishermen telling another, "what a fine one that is, and big too. This lake is full of good fish. Let us fish here tomorrow."
On hearing this, the fish rushed to his friends. "Let us leave this lake. This canal here will take us to another lake."
"I don't think I will leave this place," said the resourceful fish. "If the fishermen came, I shall find some way of saving myself."
The third one said, "I have been here since I was born. Why should I leave the place of my birth? Whatever will be, Will be."
The wise fish did not want to take any risk. He left the lake by the canal and went to another. The fishermen came the next morning and cast their net. The two friends who had not left the lake were caught in it, along with many other fish.
The resourceful one immediately thought of a way out. He pretended to be dead. The fishermen threw him out with the other dead fish. He managed to crawl to the edge of the lake and jump in.
The fish who believed in fate kept jumping up and down in the net. One of the fishermen struck him dead.

The President's proposed budget for FY 2014, released last week and available here, includes a line item at page 197 that proposes to "Clarify the Medicare Fraction in the Medicare Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) statute." This line item is listed as budget neutral for all years but neither the budget itself nor its 1300+ page "appendix" contains any further discussion of the issue. HHS, however, in its own summary of the President's budget, available here, explains that "[t]his proposal would clarify that individuals who have exhausted inpatient benefits under Part A or who have elected to enroll in Part C plan [MA days] should be included in the calculation of the Medicare fraction of hospitals' Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) patient percentages." Including Part A exhausted days and MA days in the Medicare fraction significantly decreases DSH payments for the majority of hospitals. It is probably no mere coincidence that this proposal comes when both these issues are currently pending in Federal court. It is unclear, therefore, whether this is a serious attempt to change the law or merely "saber rattling" designed to weaken the position of the plaintiff hospitals in those pending cases.
The administration's tactic is not without precedent. Litigation on how Section 1115 Medicaid waiver days should be treated in the DSH formula was also pending in Federal court when the law was changed, through Section 5002(a) of the Deficit Reduction Act (DRA) of 2005, to "clarify" the law consistent with the Secretary's interpretation. The D.C. district court in that case, which had previously decided in favor of the hospitals, felt itself bound by the DRA and reversed course and found in favor of the Secretary. See Cookeville Reg'l Med. Ctr. v. Leavitt, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 68961 (D.D.C. Sept. 26, 2006), aff'd, 531 F.3d 844 (D.C. Cir. 2008).
Although the general consensus is that the President's budget as a whole will not be adopted by Congress, individual items may nevertheless be enacted in other legislation. It therefore behooves hospitals and hospital associations to lobby their congressional delegations now against adopting this element of the President's budget proposal.

McCann Investigations Expands its Network Forensics Services to Austin
Texas capital a strong market for McCann's cutting-edge digital forensics
Austin, TX (PRWEB) October 29, 2013
McCann Investigations, a Texas-based firm specializing in private investigations and various fields of digital security, recently announced that it has made its network forensics services available to clients based in the Austin market.
Network forensics is a specific category within digital forensics that is centered on the analysis of traffic and information that moves through computer networks. Any information gathered in the network forensics process can be used to find network vulnerabilities and intrusions or to collect evidence for use in court. Most organizations use network forensics services as a safeguard against potential network attacks.
"As far as network security is concerned, it's important to be extremely proactive," said Daniel Weiss, Managing Partner at McCann Investigations. "Our Austin digital security specialists are pleased to work with our clients to help them prevent a major attack that could yield hugely negative results."
The network forensics specialists employed by McCann have significant training in numerous areas of digital forensics, which gives them a broad and deep understanding of all of the tasks necessary to guard networks against outside attacks. The specialists have field experience and access to high-quality resources that make this possible.
McCann's Austin network analysts are also well-versed in all of the legal issues involved with network security. They follow numerous guidelines so that any evidence they collect can legally be used in court.
"Any steps you take to increase your network security are key in protecting the safety of your business and its employees," said Weiss. "Our network specialists are fully dedicated to your safety and are pleased to provide these services in Austin."

The Washington Post reports that Sandra Fluke is preparing a run for Congress in California.
"Women's rights activist Sandra Fluke appears to be moving forward with a run for Congress," reports the Post.
"Fluke has filed with the California state Democratic Party to seek its endorsement in the race for retiring Rep. Henry Waxman's (D-Calif.) seat, according to the state party Web site.
"A state party delegate confirmed to Post Politics that Fluke has filed and paid the fee to appear on the ballot this weekend."
TPM adds, "Fluke is listed on the California state Democratic Party's website as seeking its endorsement in the race to fill outgoing Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA)'s seat."
Fluke became famous when she was criticized by radio host Rush Limbaugh. "She rose to national attention in 2012 after testifying in a House oversight hearing on contraception coverage and being subsequently smeared by conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh," writes TPM.
Florida senator Marco Rubio told conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh Tuesday that "there won't be a solution" on immigration unless Barack Obama embraces "real enforcement triggers."

President Barack Obama sat down with Rolling Stone for an hour long interview, which the editors there are billing the "most substantive interview the president has granted in over a year." The president used the opportunity to single out two conservative Americans for attack.
The National Organization for Women, a feminist group, announced a new initiative: "Enough Rush," a campaign against radio host Rush Limbaugh. The effort is designed to reignite the short-lived furor over apparently disparaging jokes Limbaugh made on his show earlier this year about feminist activist Sandra Fluke.
The Atlantic: "Two Romneys in Two Days on Fox News."
Washington Free Beacon: "Beijing on the Potomac: Paper that broke Watergate partners with Chinese Communist Party."
Michael Barone: "Obama kicks can down road on Iran, entitlements"
John Podhoretz: "Doubt dogging Romney"
At the presidential press conference this afternoon, Barack Obama was asked to weigh in radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh's apology to law school student Sandra Fluke. "Do you believe Rush Limbaugh's apology to the Georgetown student is sufficient and heartfelt? Do you agree with the number of sponsors who agreed to stop supporting his show? Is there a double standard on this issue? Liberal commentators have made similarly provocative and distasteful statements and there hasn't been the same out rage."
Ricochet: "Newt Explains the Facts to David Gregory"
Marist Poll: "Santorum and Romney Neck and Neck in Ohio"
Kirsten Powers: "Rush Limbaugh Isn't the Only Media Misogynist"
Rush Limbaugh compares Newt Gingrich's attacks on Mitt Romney with Ross Perot's destructive assault on George H.W. Bush in 1992. It's a thought-provoking comparison.
Rick Perry has a new ad showcasing the support of prominent conservatives like Steve Forbes and Rush Limbaugh for his economic plan. WEEKLY STANDARD senior writer Steve Hayes makes a (vocal) appearance:
"Limbaugh: 'We Need To Open The Program Today By Congratulating President Obama'"
"Obama Doctrine: Better Dead Than Gitmo"
"Detective Work on Courier Led to Breakthrough on Bin Laden"
It seems to me that when Paul Ryan can get both David Brooks and Rush Limbaugh enthused, he's really on to something:
Earlier this month a radio station that made history became history.
Seattle's 570 KVI announced that it was flipping its format from conservative talk to "Classic Hits" of the 60s and 70s. As Talkers magazine reported last year, it was KVI that pioneered the all-conservative talk format now used by hundreds of other radio stations and one fabulously successful TV cable network.
The Daily Caller reported yesterday on public radio employee Sarah Spitz's desire to watch Rush Limbaugh die:
We are on Day Two of JournoList revelations at The Daily Caller.
Yesterday, we found out that liberal bloggers don't like conservatives, that writers employed by The Nation think America has the blood of millions of innocents on its hands, and that both would have liked to convince the media to ignore the rantings of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright in favor of covering Obama's policy press releases. Spencer Ackerman's call to smear conservatives as racist to distract from the Wright story was notable for its candor and naked partisan motivation, removing the veil of moral authority from liberals' cries of racism.
Today we learn more about mainstream players at national outlets, which is the more interesting part of the JournoList. Among the ideas that raise less objection than they should— wishing in graphic detail to witness the death of Rush Limbaugh and using the federal government to shut down a cable news network one doesn't like.

Treatment is the fragrance-free benzoyl peroxide product that's the cornerstone of the Acne.org regimen. Those of you who've been reading our info on acne know that we strongly recommend benzoyl peroxide as the gold standard active ingredient for killing acne-causing bacteria and keeping it under control.
Generally, we advise using a benzoyl peroxide product in strengths of 2.5% or, for more stubborn acne, 5%. Some companies selling products with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but those tend to be quite drying while being marginally or, in fact, no more effective than lower concentrations. Treatment is medicated with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, which is great.
Those with acne will likely find the texture of Treatment to be agreeable. It's a thin, almost fluid lotion that feels gel-like on skin and sets without making skin feel greasy or look really shiny (you may see some shine, though).
Regrettably, all this can really do is kill acne-causing bacteria. Although that's necessary when breakouts are present, today's best benzoyl peroxide formulas temper the potential dryness and irritation of this active ingredient with anti-irritants or even some antioxidants or plant extracts known to reduce inflammation. Because acne is an inflammatory disorder at its core, anything you can do via skin care to reduce inflammation is helpful.
The lack of other beneficial ingredients beyond benzoyl peroxide is why Treatment missed being rated a BEST product. The simplicity and fragrance-free formula do make it a good option for those with breakouts and extra-sensitive skin.
One more comment: The size of this product borders on absurdly large. Unless you have acne on your face and entire torso, an 8-ounce tube of this will last two years or more! Although that sounds good (hey, more for your money!) we're concerned that, over time, the benzoyl peroxide will lose its potency. It's an unstable ingredient, which is one reason why most companies selling benzoyl peroxide products limit the size to an ounce, maybe two, three at most.
Note: Treatment also comes in a 16-ounce size for a bit over $32 and a 2-ounce travel size for $6.
This 2.5% benzoyl peroxide is gel based so it goes on clear and spreads easily. It is pharmaceutical grade, pH balanced, fragrance-free, and dye-free. It won't "clump up" with moisturizers, and won't turn white when you perspire. Studies show that 2.5% benzoyl peroxide works as well as 10% solutions, without the excessive dryness and irritation.
Active Ingredient: 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide. Inactive Ingredients: Water, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Potassium Sorbate, Phenoxyethanol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Sodium Hydroxide.
Strengths: Inexpensive, effective formulas, most of which are fragrance-free; some of the products come in a variety of sizes, including travel sizes; good water-soluble cleanser; good AHA exfoliant; simple but effective benzoyl peroxide treatment; an intriguing anti-acne line for those with sensitive skin.
Weaknesses: No BHA exfoliants (while AHA can help improve breakouts, BHA, also known as salicylic acid, is preferred); no products to fade red marks from acne; the size of the benzoyl peroxide treatment may render the benzoyl peroxide ineffective before you're done with it (it's really, really big!); only one strength of benzoyl peroxide, and it may not be strong enough for those with stubborn breakouts.
The Acne.org product line and website is a labor of love from Daniel Kern, a resourceful guy who struggled for years with acne before finally, through much trial and error (sound familiar?), finding what worked for him. He decided to share his story online so others struggling with acne would have a place to ask him questions, talk about their failures and successes with battling breakouts, post reviews of products they've tried, and boost each other's self-esteem—which often takes a nosedive when persistent acne shows up.
After years of personal experimentation to get his own acne under control, Kern developed what he refers to as The Regimen. This is a 3-step system for treating acne that involves gentle cleansing, disinfecting with a benzoyl peroxide product, and applying a moisturizer. Each step in the regimen sounds simple enough, yet following it takes some getting used to, as each individual step is highly detailed.
For example, cleansing isn't just the usual "splash face with warm water, apply cleanser in circular motions, rinse, and then pat skin dry." Instead, the precise amount of cleanser is calibrated, you're only supposed to use it on skin for 10 seconds before rinsing, no washcloths allowed, use barely any pressure (which won't work well for removing makeup), and you must wait until skin is completely dry before applying the next product.
The entire 3-step routine is super-detailed, so be prepared to read, re-read, and study the routine's charts and images carefully before doing this, assuming you choose to follow it. One thing is certain: This is a routine that won't get you out the door in a few minutes; however, many who've adapted to it feel strongly that it's worth it, and we're not going to debate that when clear skin is the result!
Do you need to follow The Regimen to get great results with these products? No, and if you choose to follow The Regimen you do not need to use Kern's Acne.org products—something he makes clear on his site. Although Kern shares some good tips and helpful guidelines, much of his info is rooted in personal experience rather than scientific research. Also, when it comes to acne, there's more than one way to treat it—as most people with acne have likely come to discover. Kern's Regimen is merely one more method to try; it may work, but it may not.
We're surprised that the Acne.org line doesn't offer a BHA exfoliant, because BHA (salicylic acid) has mounds of research proving it's an important, if not crucial, ingredient for battling blemishes (not to mention redness, blackheads, white bumps and red marks from acne). Instead, Acne.org sells an AHA exfoliant, which can be an option but many will have even greater results using a BHA exfoliant or at least alternating between the two if you like how Kern's AHA product makes your skin feel.
Overall, although the Acne.org regimen isn't as complete or as simple it may seem, most of the products are worth considering, and they're affordable, too. Kern wisely avoids the use of fragrance or common irritants found in so many anti-acne products. Like us, we imagine Kern has wondered more than once why so many products claiming to improve acne only contain ingredients destined to make the redness, pain, and inflammation of acne worse, not better.
We're thrilled to say that Kern's products, while not perfect (but then again, no anti-acne routine will work the same for everyone), are considerably better than almost every other anti-acne line out there. It's sad that there are so few truly effective (or at least strong potential to be effective) anti-acne products available, but you can add those from Acne.org to the short list of winners!
For more information on acne.org, visit www.acne.org or call (800) 773-7803.
Note: Acne.org also offers their products in various kits that feature different sizes and mixes of products depending on your needs and preferences. These, along with the individual Acne.org products are sold on the company's site. You can also arrange to have Acne.org products or kits automatically shipped to you on a schedule you determine.
The new Beautypedia Team proudly and unequivocally maintains the commitment to help you find the best products possible for your skin. We do this by relentlessly pursuing and relying on published scientific research so you will have unbiased information on what works and what doesn't-and the sneaky ways you could be making your skin worse, not better!
The Beautypedia Team reviews all products using the same research, criteria, and objectivity, whether the product being reviewed is from Paula's Choice or another brand.
One day I decided that my skin didn't need BP anymore, so I quit using this product. My acne came back within a few weeks. So, I am absolutely sure this product works for my skin. It's a good formula, and it doesn't irritate my skin. It does, however, ball up sometimes in conjunction with other products. This is a minor annoyance.
I have to say this product was amazing. It's simple, easy to use, and works.
However, if you start having eczema like dryness that just keeps getting worse, it could be a sensitivity issue. It happened to me half way through my second big jug. But I still think this is a great product if your skin can handle it.
-In my opinion, the efficacy of the BP due to the large size is a non-issue. I've been using this bp for years.
-the gel formula is wonderful
-In my opinion, the simplicity of the BP makes it more efficacious than Paula's, but I tried that back when it still had isopropyl myristrate in it.
-I can't justify buying Paula's BP for $17 for just 2 Oz, when I can get Dan's for much less.
- if you want soothing ingredients, add one of paula's toners or add another soothing product.
I had great success with this product. I love the honesty of the company and the founder and his website, which is similar to Paula's in that he reviews other brands and how they affect acne, while also selling his own products.
With regard to the criticism that the benzoyl peroxide becomes inactive over time, I didn't find this to be the case, but obviously, my experience is far from scientific.
The Beautypedia reviews of all the Acne.org products are incredibly fair & accurate. I used all of these products until I switched to Paula's Choice. In particular, I think the very basic BP product wears really well. It's matte, non-irritating and very easy to apply. ACNE.ORG products are also a great value: generous sizes and fair prices. If you find Paula's Choice CLEAR products too expensive (they really are better, however), these are a close second in my opinion.

My Rating
We had a great time, the guides were well versed on the history and they went out of there way to ensure we had a great time, the one thing we all didnt like was the fact they tried to get us to go to places such as inlay stone factory, textile warehouses, gem stone factorys, waste of time, very expensive, hard sell, then not happy when we didnt buy stuff, not impressed, if we wanted to go to places like that we would ask for it, it isnt in the itinerary either.

NFL and players oceans apart during labor dispute
INDIANAPOLIS June normally is the quietest time in the NFL. This year, what happens next month couldn't be more critical.
The NFL and the players association are oceans apart from reaching a new collective bargaining agreement. The lockout, now in its 10th week, is the most obvious indication of that. No serious negotiations have taken place since March 11, when the union dissolved, 10 players filed an antitrust suit against the NFL, and the owners locked out the players.
One NFL event, the rookie symposium scheduled for June 26 in Canton, Ohio, has bitten the dust. More, including the opening of training camps in late July, followed by preseason games in August, will be jeopardized the longer the labor impasse lasts.
If the NFL wins before an appeals panel in St. Louis - a hearing is scheduled June 3 - and the lockout is upheld, the negative impact on the league that Commissioner Roger Goodell cited during the owners' spring meetings this week will not disappear. Likely, it will make things worse. Such a court decision might get both sides back to the bargaining table, but it might not.
Should the appeal be rejected and the lockout lifted, the league must open for business while the owners surely carry their case to the full 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The NFL would need to set up ground rules for sending everyone back to work, but those rules likely would be temporary because the full appeals court could rule in the league's favor, bringing back the lockout.
"The issue about litigation is that there is no end," Goodell said. "That's why I don't believe that's ultimately going to resolve the issue. There is always the 'search for leverage.' At some point that has to end and you have to negotiate."
But to think a quick solution will come out of those negotiations is foolhardy. Here's why: Each side is solidly entrenched on a number of topics, and unless one faction does a lot more than budge, the middle ground is unreachable.
For example, Goodell said in a letter to the players sent March 17 that a salary cap of $141 million was offered for 2011, which he called the midpoint between the owners' and NFLPA's offers. The players claim that figure is based on unrealistically low revenue projections and the cap, based on past years, should be $159 million in 2011.
The players also said the cap should increase to $201 million by 2014, and the league expected it to reach $161 million, which Goodell cited as $20 million growth per club over the four-season span. Player projections were based on an annual growth rate of 8 percent for the league, which the NFLPA repeatedly has said is consistent with the past. The players argue that the NFL would sign new media deals before 2014 worth $8 billion, nearly double the current TV income, sending the growth rate skyrocketing.
Jeff Pash, the NFL's lead negotiator, acknowledged that the longer the work stoppage, the lower the owners' offers will become.

The Sirens' Song and Short Employee Engagement Surveys
Short employee engagement and satisfaction surveys seem to be all the rage these days, promising to check the daily or weekly "pulse" of a company's employees. This lures HR executives in with the enticing promise of brevity—who has time to conduct an annual employee survey, anyway? But before you set your course, ask yourself: are these surveys accurate, reliable and precise? Can they truly help your company prioritize where and how to improve the employee experience?

They form a quick impression from their experiences with your store employees, your website, your customer service team, your new app, etc. If they see your organization in action, there's a badge in the making. So how many stars will you get? MoreCategories: ForeSee Solutions Ratings & Reviews
I Spy Something Blue and Black: Perception Versus Science
Which side of the great dress debate did you argue last week: white and gold, or blue and black? How could something that seemed so obvious to so many be so controversial? As many of us learned, color perception can depend on such factors as how our eyes receive light, how our brains process information, the brightness of the room in which we saw the image, the appearance of other items on the computer screen we viewed and more. In other words, it's complicated. Consider, then, how much more complicated it is to accurately "perceive" the multichannel customer experience.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has created hundreds of e-media activists across the state to reach out to voters. Every activist has been given a target of at least a message a day to a group of 50 voters known to him/her. Till the voting date, the activists are supposed to keep sending information about the party and its policies and initiatives to the voters.
Every parliamentary constituency has around 75-100 e-media activists, who have to create their own group of people and stay connected with them through the various social media, such as WhatsApp and Facebook.
"The people in the group can be anybody — right from friends, family members to even followers of the e-media activist in the constituency. The activist has to stay in touch with them and send them messages related to the party. This could be some statement of a leader or a demand made by a BJP leader or some policy of the party. Some of the messages are created and sent at the constituency level, while some are sent from the state office. Some messages are prepared at the central office of the BJP and then sent to the state and then from the state to the activists," said Jiten Gajria, convener of the social media cell of the BJP state unit.
Citing an example of a message, Gajria said the BJP has made three demands with regard to devastation caused by hailstones in the state, which has affected farmers in the state. The messages have been sent from the state office to the e-media activists, who will send them to their respective groups, which will also include farmers.
The e-media activists will also get in touch with their groups via Facebook. "Through these activists, we hope to target various sections, including working professionals in different sectors. For example, in Ulhasnagar alone, we have linked up groups of 6,500 professionals," Gajria added.
BJP also has a code when it comes to sending such messages. "No vulgar or below the belt or abusive messages will be sent by the activists. We have already instructed the same to all of them," Gajria said.
