In the trenches...
The only way to get around the reserve is with a good, strong, 4x4 vehicle. The roads are in terrible state, especially after several days of rain. Fortunately, the local drivers can deal with most of the problems. Even if the ride sometimes feels lile a ride in a rollercoaster.
The Slow and Cheap Route
The train arrives here three times a week: on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. The train leaves from Tazara station in Dar Es Salaam. The closest stop is Kisaki where a free transfer to the Sable Mountain lodge .
Train in Fly out
Taking the train from Dar es Salaam to Kisaki, Selous costs only $10 and passes through the reserve giving free game viewing. The lodge picks you up for free. Then fly out to Zanzibar for $130, (it costs $120 to fly to Dar )- you get to combine great safari and Zanzibar beaches.
Fast and Expansive Route
The easiest way to get here is by a plane from Dar Es Salaam. I flew from Zanzibar by Zanair. They were OK, but they are not as good as Coastal Aviation.

Gaza Cease-Fire Deal Was Prefaced by a New Kind of Destruction
- By Elias GrollElias Groll is an assistant editor at Foreign Policy. A native of Stockholm, Sweden, he received his undergraduate degree from Harvard University, where he was the managing editor of The Harvard Crimson.
- elias.groll
- @eliasgroll
Israel and Hamas have agreed to a long-term cease-fire that will halt 50 days of intense violence. But in the lead-up, Israeli forces rained destruction on Gaza as they leveled a series of high-rise buildings. It is unclear to what extent, if at all, this new tactic of bringing down large buildings contributed to the deal announced Tuesday, Aug. 26.
Early reports indicate that some restrictions on trade and travel in Gaza will be lifted and that Palestinians will be able to import large amounts of cement and other construction materials to begin a mammoth rebuilding effort. Thousands of homes and businesses were destroyed during the Israeli air and ground campaign. If the cease-fire holds, negotiators will reconvene next month to tackle thornier issues, such as construction of an airport in Gaza and the demilitarization of Hamas.
With widespread relief at the cessation of fighting — the streets of Gaza erupted in celebration upon news of the agreement — the recent shift in Israeli tactics is likely to be overlooked. Israel previously struck large, high-rise apartment complexes with precision munitions that left buildings standing. During the seven weeks of fighting, Gaza's more upscale apartment and office towers were mostly spared. Their recent destruction was captured in a series of terrifying videos.
Here is the razing of Al Zafer Tower 4 in Gaza.
In a series of early-morning strikes Tuesday, Israel targeted a pair of larger towers. The video below shows the moment the 15-story Basha Tower was struck, which collapsed the building.
Here, a huge trail of debris:
The so-called Italian Complex, an upscale apartment building that was one of the nicer places to live in Gaza, was severely damaged in a separate strike.

Hamas chief among 7 killed as Israel pounds Gaza
More News from Agence France-Presse
GAZA CITY, Palestinian Territories— A top Hamas commander was among seven people killed in more than 20 Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, as Israel began an operation targeting militant groups.
Ahmed Jaabari, the operational commander of Hamas's armed wing, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, was killed alongside his bodyguard, Mohammed al-Hams, in an initial Israeli strike on a car in Gaza City which took place just before 4:00 pm (1400 GMT), the Islamist movement said.
Shortly afterwards, Israel pounded the Gaza Strip with another 20 air strikes, killing five more people, two of them children, Hamas health minister Mufid Mukhalalati said in a televised press conference at Gaza City's Shifa hospital.
He said another 30 people had been injured in the wave of strikes on targets across the territory which hit Gaza City, the northern town of Beit Lahiya and the southern city of Khan Yunis.
"The Israeli occupation has carried out more than 20 air strikes on targets and headquarters of the police and security in the Gaza Strip," interior ministry spokesman Islam Shahwan told AFP.
Hospitals and medical centres across Gaza were put on high alert after the initial strikes as Israel warned the hit on Jaabari was only "the beginning" and said "a significant number" of militant arms dumps were within civilian and residential areas.
The attacks came after a flare-up in violence between Israel and Gaza-based groups, which saw more than 120 rockets fired from the Palestinian territory into the Jewish state, and Israeli air strikes and shelling that killed seven people.

Staff Reporter
For implementing works under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission
MADURAI: The Madurai Corporation has won three awards, including two runner-up awards, among the 63 Corporations of the country for implementing development works under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission.
Talking to reporters, the Mayor, G. Thenmozhi, said that it was due to the tireless efforts of the officials. The awards constituted by the Ministry of Urban Development and the Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation were for best performing city for implementation of reforms during 2007-08. The local body bagged two runner-up awards for implementation of water supply scheme and underground drainage (UGD) works.
When pointed out about the numerous complaints on the on-going UGD works in the city, the Commissioner, D.J. Dhinakaran, said that the award was for the concept of development work proposed. "It is only Madurai Corporation that has proposed to cover the entire city with the UGD," he said. Besides, it had already prepared a detailed project report for setting up two sewerage treatment plants adopting advanced scientific methodology.
Among the reforms proposed by the Corporation were higher income tax, water charges and UGD charges with the cooperation of public. E-governance, for which the Corporation that had taken initiative as early as 2005, was also appreciated. Double accounting system adopted way back in 1993 and the proposal to provide on-line toll collection on the Ring Road were some of the better practices adopted by the Corporation, he added. A paperless office system was also proposed.
The local body which had proposed to get works worth Rs. 2,361 crore had sanction for nine works worth Rs. 966 crore. The proposal for solid waste management, lining of all the 11 drainage channels were other initiatives to make the city cleaner. The ongoing second drinking water project would be commissioned by Pongal, he added.
The Superintending Engineer, K. Sakthivel, was present.

Wanaka entrepreneur Sam Lee has set a new crowd-funding
target for his proposed ''meMINI'' wearable video camera.
Mr Lee launched a campaign earlier this month to raise
$US50,000 to fund the development of the camera, which
captures up to five minutes of events occurring before the
user presses the recall button.
The money was pledged through the ''kickstarter'' website
within eight days and Mr Lee told the Otago Daily
Times from Auckland yesterday the money would be spent
reducing the size of the camera's electronic circuit board.
Once that was done, the camera would go into production and
those who provided funding pledges would have a camera by
late June.
Mr Lee said he and partner Ben Bodley, of Auckland, had now
''stretched'' their target to $US150,000 so the camera could
be further refined.
Improvements were likely to include development of a
custom-made battery and lens, to enable the camera to be
slimmed down as much as 5mm from its 21.5mm.
Mr Lee launched the fundraising campaign while at the
Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
He considered 350 backers pledging $US50,000 validated the
idea for the camera.
''We know that it's obviously a lifestyle product that people
Mr Lee said the advantage of the camera was its ability to
capture a short clip, which did not need editing, that could
be put straight on to social media.
Asked why he did not simply borrow the money from the bank,
Mr Lee said crowd-sourced funding allowed people to ''get on
board, see your vision and go on a journey''.

I hate the local Calumet (in San Francisco, CA). Their film and paper stock is wildly inconsistent. The service is terrible, unless, it seems, you are a local pro who knows the staff. Then they are willing to spend hours talking about lenses while ignoring people queuing at the counter to actually buy something.
Exception: I've found the rental department to be friendly, helpful, and reliable.
When I finally do get someone's attention they say "just tell us what you want, we can get it for you in a couple of days." What's the point of that? I can order from Freestyle, JustFilm, B&H, Adorama, Photographers Formulary, etc, and get anything within 24 hours, including stuff that Calumet doesn't carry, at better prices.
I've quit going to Calumet except for rentals. I honestly don't care if they stay in the analog photograpy business or not, since they themselves don't seem to care either.

Skulduggery Pleasant Mafia
Started by Aaryan, Jul 29 2011 05:02 PM
95 replies to this topic
Posted 15 August 2011 - 03:07 AM
The picture and text below are from the above wiki link and I am pasting it here in case you would like to understand the characters and events this mafia is based upon. This mafia will be a revision of the below story.
Skulduggery Pleasant: Playing With Fire (sometimes known simply as Skulduggery Pleasant 2) is the second novel in the Skulduggery Pleasant novels written by Derek Landy.
The story continues one year after the events of the first book, which deals with the undead wizard and detective, Skulduggery Pleasant and his thirteen year old assistant Valkyrie Cain as they try to prevent the evil Baron Vengeous from finding the armour of Lord Vile and resurrecting the Faceless Ones.
Also, the author has indicated his desire to write nine novels in the series.
Plot summary: A year after the events of the first novel, Stephanie Edgely (now known as Valkyrie Cain) continues to work with Skulduggery Pleasant, an undead skeleton detective, capturing villains for The Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is now ruled by Thurid Guild in a new location after the massacre in the previous Sanctuary.
Soon Baron Vengeous (one of the original three generals of Mevolent) escapes his prison and begins searching for the armor of Lord Vile, another one of Mevolent's Generals with which he will be able to resurrect The Grotesquery, a hybrid monster made from a Faceless One's remains with the power bring back the Faceless Ones. Arriving in Ireland, he meets an accomplice vampire named Dusk. He orders Dusk to kidnap Valkyrie Cain. Dusk enslaves two humans to help him.
After losing to Skulduggery Pleasant, Baron Vengeous goes after China Sorrows who was once part of a cult that worshiped the Faceless Ones and also included Serpine and Vengous himself. The Baron confronts China Sorrows in her apartment whilst Valkyrie is visiting. Valkyrie hides whilst China and Vengous talk. Vengeous reveals that he was released from prison by an assassin named Billy-Ray Sanguine who promptly arrives along with Dusk. A battle ensues during which Valkyrie reveals herself and defends China. Valkyrie Cain is soon chased by Billy-Ray Sanguine who can travel through earth and buildings. After being in a struggle, Valkyrie is saved by Tanith Low. In the progress Valkyrie steals Billy-Ray Sanguine's razor, his primary weapon, leaving the psychopathic assassin with a grudge against her.
Valkyrie and Skulduggery along with a convict called Vaurien Scapegrace went to the Magician's village of Roarhaven to find a mysterious man called the Torment who has information they need. After a battle in a seedy pub with some thugs (including a giant) and an unpleasant incident with some giant spiders, they find the Torment and ask for his help. The Torment only says he will help them find Vile's armour if Skulduggery kills Valkyrie, who is descended from the Ancients whom the Torment despises, as he thinks any power will corrupt civilization. Skulduggery takes Valkyrie around a corner and they summon her Reflection, a living mirror image of Valkyrie who she uses as a decoy, enabling her to live a double life. Skulduggery takes Valkyrie's reflection before the Torment and shoots it dead. The Torment is satisfied and tells Skulduggery the whereabouts of the Grotesquery. He and Valkyrie return Scapegrace to prison and go to find the Grotesquery, unfortunately Vengeous's minions have already obtained it. Soon after, Skullduggery and Valkyrie take the reflection back to Valkyries's house. Valkyrie touches the mirror to absorb its memories and remembers what it is like to be shot. Valkyrie then notices that whenever she tries to look back in her memories one part always remains blank and she cannot pin it down. She realizes that her reflection hid something from her, and finds it disconcerting and dangerous. However, she goes on with Skulduggery without mentioning it to him.
Valkyrie is kidnapped by Sanguine who takes her to an old abandoned church to the Faceless Ones where she is taken before the altar where Vengeous awaits her. The evil sorcerer cuts Valkyrie's finger and spills some of her blood onto the Grotesquery's body before using the Armour's shadow powers which mingle with the blood. Skulduggery subsequently arrives and rescues Valkyrie. After stealing the Grotesquery, Valkyrie is incapacitated and wakes up in hospital. While wearing a 'respectable' blue hospital gown, Skulduggery wears a pink one decorated with bunnies and elephants for the doctor's amusement. Skulduggery turns the lifeless Grotesquery over to the Sanctuary's top scientist to take apart, however, the Grotesquery has already absorbed a lot of power from Vile's armour and Valkyrie's blood, and so wakes up in the middle of the night whilst being operated on. He kills the scientist's assistants and goes after Valkyrie. Skulduggery and Tanith arrive and the three of them attack the Grotesquery before escaping.
Meanwhile, members of Sanctuary's all across the world are being murdered by assassins to distract people from Vengeous's plan. Billy-Ray Sanguine has also released Springheeled Jack from prison and sends him after a Sanctuary official in London. After discovering that he is being manipulated by Vengous in a plan to bring back the Faceless Ones, Jack kills his victim.
Skulduggery works out that Vengeous is actually a pawn in someone else's plan and accuses Thurid Guild of being in league with this mystery benefactor. In a rage, Guild fires Skulduggery who decides to go after Vengous anyway.
Valkyrie begrudgingly goes to her family reunion as a distraction to Dusk. The Torment, meanwhile, has discovered that Valkyrie is alive and goes after her only to be confronted by Skulduggery and Tanith Low. The Torment transforms into a giant spider but Skulduggery and Tanith defeat him nevertheless.
Valkyrie is subsequently attacked by vampires and forced to flee. Dusk corners her and vows that when he has transformed her into a vampire he's going to set her loose on her parents while in her bloodlust. Valkyrie stabs Dusk in the leg with the syringe he uses to curb his vampiric side whilst he is transforming, and as a result, he is caught between vampire and human and put in intense pain. Springheeled Jack comes and rescues her and defeats Dusk so as to frustrate Vengeous's plans because he doesn't want the Faceless Ones to return.
Meanwhile China is attacked by Vengous in an underground carpark. The dark wizard brutally murders China's bodyguards and viciously beats her unconscious before taking her to Clearwater Hospital which is serving as his headquarters.
Accompanied by Tanith Low, Mr Bliss and some Cleavers, Skulduggery and Valkyrie go to Clearwater Hospital and do battle with the Grotesquery which due to being part Faceless One is virtually invincible. Mr Bliss is incapacitated but the Cleavers mercilessly attack the Grotesquery and almost overpower it when Vengous arrives along with China whom he has taken captive and together with the Grotesquery he kills the Cleavers and beats Skulduggery and Valkyrie into submission. Valkyrie tricks Vengous into releasing her, saying that she will join him but she releases China who attacks Vengous and the Grotesquery, giving Valkyrie time to free Skulduggery who joins in the assault against Vengous, tearing off his helmet and his breastplate before shooting him in the stomach. In a swoon, Vengous crawls toward the Grotesquery but his god callously breaks the Baron's neck. The Torment subsequently arrives and attacks the Grotesquery but he is defeated and almost killed. In the ensuing battle Valkyrie stabs the Grotesquery through the heart, killing it but before it dies it utters a terrible scream.
Sanguine is then seen meeting his mysterious master who reveals that he had never expected the Grotesquery to succeed but he knew that when it was vanquished, the beast's dying scream would alert the Faceless Ones spirits as to the whereabouts of the Earth meaning that all he has to do now is open the door. The mysterious man then pays Sanguine and takes his leave.
Valkyrie is later seen talking to Skulduggery on a pier. They reason that they must find out who Vengous and Sanguine were really working for and if Thurid Guild is in league with him. Skulduggery ominously tells Valkyrie "Bad things are coming." They are subsequently attacked by a vampire and the book ends with them going into battle once again.

"Juce & milk tumblers If dropped they don't break Wash great in dishwasher. Stay just like new."
"My kids are too young for glassware but I wanted something more attractive than your typical plastic cup. I also wanted a plastic cup that didn't give off that nasty plastic odor. These fit the bill. They look quite a bit like glass, hide watermarks, bounce when the kids drop them, and come out of the dishwasher looking great. I'm planning on ordering more."

A tongue scraping and treating device for use in removing undesired matter from a user's tongue and applying a substance on the tongue, the scraper comprising a curved scraper portion and handles connected to the scraper portion, wherein the scrapper portion includes a peripheral container channel at an upper edge thereof.
1. A tongue scraper for use in removing undesired matter from a user's tongue, the scraper comprising:
a curved scraper portion comprising a plurality of rectilinear portions angularly pending relative to each other, the curved scraper portion having an inner face, an outer face, a lower edge, and an opposed upper edge, and
handle means connected to respective ends of the scraper portion,
wherein the lower edge defines a contour comprising a central pending curved portion and two side concave curved portions placed at both sides of the central portion, the lower edge with the three curved portions matching an upper surface of the tongue, and wherein the outer face includes a peripheral container channel at the upper edge.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a device for personal cleaning and, more particularly, to a scraper device for removing undesired matter from a user's tongue and, even more particularly, the invention relates to a scraper and tongue-treating device for removing plaque and debris from the tongue in order to prevent halitosis and for applying a treating substance onto the tongue.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Halitosis is a concern for many people affected of this disorder that is chronic or pathological disorder stemming from non-oral sources as well as oral sources. Studies have shown that about 85% patients suffering from halitosis have an oral condition as the source. Measures of oral malodor suggest that it is caused mainly by tongue coating as the result of anaerobic sulfur producing bacteria, which normally live within the tongue. This bacteria is supposed to be there because they assist digestion by breaking down proteins found in specific foods, mucus, blood and death cells. Under certain conditions, they start to break down the proteins found in those specific foods.
Tongue coating comprises desquamated epithelial cells, blood cells, bacteria and mucus. The morphology of the dorsal surface of the tongue is very irregular with the presence of multiple fissures and filiform and fungiform papillae. These fissures and crypts may create a unique ecological site were microorganisms are well-protected from the flushing action of the saliva and where oxygen levels are low enhancing the growth of anaerobic bacteria. Saliva from nearby glands drips down on the posterior region of the tongue, which is full of irregularities. The bacteria on the tongue are also a potential contributor to periodontal disease and other oral health problems. This coating on the tongue also causes a loss of taste since it dulls the taste receptors.
The anaerobic bacteria break down specific components of the coating of the tongue creating certain gases or volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs). These VSCs have been implicated as a major contributing factor to halitosis. Consequently, the removal of the tongue coating reduces VSCs production and longer lasting reductions in VSC levels are followed after tongue scraping. Methods that involved cleansing of the dorsoposterior surface of the tongue caused the most pronounced reductions of halitosis.
Many instruments have been developed and manufactured for removing debris and plaque from the tongue, these instruments comprising a tongue cleaning with a scraping portion having a blade designed to be passed onto the upper surface of the tongue to scrape the matter.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,827,308 to Thakur et al. discloses a tongue scraping apparatus having a curved blade and a pair of elongated handles, the blade including a relatively sharp lower edge, an opposed smooth upper edge, and opposed front and back faces. When using this apparatus in cleaning the upper surface of a tongue, the matter scraping from the tongue of a user is accumulated against the front face reaching the upper edge and passing in some cases over the upper edge to fall, by the back face, onto the surface of the tongue what is a very disgusting situation.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,013,089 to Goldberg discloses an improved tongue cleaner having a U-shaped scraper portion and handle portions integrally formed, with the scraper portion having a flange projected perpendicularly from an inner face of the scraper portion. The flange forms a corner space or a barrier in the inner face for containing matter scraped from the user's tongue.
While Goldberg has addressed the problem of the matter passing over the upper edge of the scraping blade, the provision of a simple flange does not solve the problem as it would be desired. In addition, the scrapers of Goldberg and Thakur lack any means for containing and applying a substance, such as a gel, onto the tongue's surface for treating purposes.
It is therefore one object of the present invention to provide an improved device for scraping the tongue of a user for removing matter, debris and/or plaque from the tongue in order to prevent mouth odor.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a tongue scraping device capable of containing and applying a desired substance on the surface of the tongue with the purpose of treating or deodorizing the tongue.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a tongue scraping device having a scraper portion with a lower scraping edge having a contour matching the anatomical shape of the tongue in order to improve the scraping.
It is even another object of the present invention to provide a tongue scraper for use in removing undesired matter from a user's tongue, the scraper comprising a curved scraper portion having an inner face, an outer face, a lower edge, and an opposed upper edge, and handle means connected to respective ends of the scraper portion, wherein the lower edge defines a contour comprising a central pending curved portion and two side concave curved portions placed at both sides of the central portion, the lower edge with the three curved portions matching an upper surface of the tongue, and wherein the outer surface includes a peripheral container channel at the upper edge, the channel provided either for collecting the matter scraped from the tongue and/or for containing a substance for treating the tongue.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of this invention will be better understood when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and description.
The present invention is illustrated by way of example in the following drawings wherein:
Now referring in detail to the drawings it may be seen from
The curved scraper portion has a cross sectional shape, as better shown in
Lower edge 5 defines a contour, better illustrated in
According to another feature of the invention, the device is provided with the capability of containing any desired matter or substance with the purpose of applying the same on the user's tongue. More particularly, outer surface 4 includes a peripheral container channel 12 at upper edge 6 of the scrapping portion. The peripheral container channel is formed by a curved wall 13 outwardly and upwardly extending from outer surface 4 in order to form a cavity all along the U-shaped scraper portion for at least two purposes. One purpose is to collect all the scraped matter collected against inner wall 3 that may reach the upper edge of wall 13 and pass over edge 6. Thus, unlike the US Patent to Goldberg, the scraped matter passing over edge 6 will fall into channel 12 and be collected therein. For this purpose, channel 12 preferably will have no orifices or openings at the bottom thereof.
Another purpose of channel 12 is to contain a substance, preferably a gel, in an appropriate manner to dispense the substance on the tongue for treating purposes. This gel may be for deodorizing purposes. Curved wall 13 preferably extends upwardly up to a level with upper edge 6, however, wall 13 may end below the level of upper edge 6 or above this level according to a preferred design. In all cases, upper edge 6 and the upper edge of wall 13 define respective smooth surfaces.
According to a preferred design, container channel 12 extends upwardly through a vertical extension of the outer surface that is about the 0.25 of the entire height of outer face 4, that is � of a distance between upper edge 6 and lower edge 5.
For the purpose of controllably releasing a substance contained in channel 12, the peripheral container channel includes at least one opening, preferably a plurality of orifices 14, at a bottom thereof for controllably releasing the gel. Preferably, a continuous opening, not shown, will be provided at the bottom of channel 12.
Also for the purpose of containing and releasing a substance on the tongue, channel 12 may be like it is illustrated in
As an alternative embodiment channel 12 may contain a disposable spongy member, which in turn may contain the above-mentioned substance, such as a gel, in order to provide a controlled release of the substance onto the tongue. The spongy member may be any piece of sponge, porous material or absorbent member made of any appropriate material, such as a plastic foam, capable of retaining and releasing the substance.
While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

Free Radical Defenze
Enzymedica Free Radical Defenze helps reduce free radical damage in the body. Free radicals are produced as the normal by-products of digestion and respiration and are also the result of numerous other factors such as exposure to pollutants, cigarette smoke, ultra violet light and X-rays. Free radical damage has been associated with aging and numerous disease states, including atherosclerosis, emphysema, Parkinson's disease, senility, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, arthritis, and inflammation.
Enzymedica Defenze represents one of the most potent formulas available to neutralize these harmful free radicals. Enzymes are much more effective antioxidants than nutrients alone as is seen in recent research, using various antioxidant markers. Defenze vastly outperformed a buffered form of vitamin C containing bioflavonoids. Among the indications tested were caffeine clearance, liver detoxification and glutathione levels.
Defenze represents one of the most potent formulas available to neutralize harmful free radicals. Defenze vastly outperformed a buffered form of vitamin C containing bioflavonoids. Among the indications tested were caffeine clearance, liver detoxification and glutathione levels.
Why does Defenze outperform Vitamin C?
Defenze contains a combination of potent antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and our exclusive protease Thera-blend. SOD aids in neutralizing free radicals and is part of the 'oxidative burst' that immune cells release to destroy bacteria and viruses that have gained access to the cells of the body. Catalase is an extremely efficient enzyme that removes toxins from the body. Its primary function is to turn hydrogen peroxide (a free radical compound) into water and oxygen. One molecule of catalase can dismantle millions of hydrogen peroxide molecules each second. Protease has a long history of therapeutic use as a detoxifier that supports immune function.
Defenze also contains glutathione and alpha-lipoic acid (ALA). Glutathione is an antioxidant molecule formed in the liver. Its main functions are to assist in DNA repair, neutralize toxins, protect cells from free radicals, and boost immune function. Deficiencies of this nutrient are associated with aging and various disease states. It also regenerates other antioxidants like vitamin C and E.
Cutting Edge Protection!
Defenze has been proven to provide overall immune support with cutting edge protection against free radical damage. It is the most potent and most effective antioxidant enzyme formula available and is backed up by the research required to prove it.
About Enzymedica: The Enzyme Experts
Enzymedica is dedicated to providing exceptional enzyme-focused supplements at the most therapeutic levels available in the natural foods industry and beyond. It is their commitment to provide unprecedented education and research that propels individuals on the path to vibrant health.

CHICAGO (Sept. 17, 2007) Contrary to concerns that restricting work hours for surgical residents negatively affects the quality of patient care or the residents education, a study in the September issue of the Journal of the American College of Surgeons found that limiting work hours does not compromise education or the quality of care. In addition, the study found that the new model improved overall teaching effectiveness and increased the amount of operating room experience that residents receive.
However, researchers concluded that duty-hour restrictions could amplify job dissatisfaction and work hours among faculty and necessitate an increase in physician assistant and nurse staffing.
Four years ago, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) mandated the Common Duty Hours Standard, which required a dramatic redesign of the country's resident training programs. Among the key requirements were to limit resident work hours to no more than 80 hours per week averaged over a four-week period, restrict shifts to 30 hours, and permit at least a 10-hour rest period in between shifts. As a result of the mandate, many surgical educators were prompted to rethink their programs' organizational structures to adhere to the new requirements.
"These findings cannot be ignored. In this environment, limits on duty hours require us to reorganize our residency programs to promote high-quality education, safe patient care, and resident well-being and to carefully monitor the results of this reorganization to be sure that all of these requirements are being satisfied," Joseph R. Schneider, MD, FACS and lead author of the study, said.
The study, Implementation and Evaluation of a New Surgical Residency Model, which was conducted by the department of surgery at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, involved the four core hospitals that make up the school's McGaw Medical Center. This new model included

The Race for 2012: Pawlenty v. Isolationists; Perry on Gaza; Tea Party excited
- By Robert ZeligerRobert Zeliger is News Editor of Foreign Policy.
Pawlenty won't name the 'isolationists'
In a decidedly hawkish foreign policy speech this week at the Council on Foreign Relations, former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty called out members of his party who "now seem to be trying to out-bid the Democrats in appealing to isolationist sentiments. This is no time for uncertain leadership in either party."
Last night, Fox News host Greta Van Susteren asked Pawlenty to name names. The former governor wouldn't get into specifics, but said "there are several candidates for president and several leading voices in the party beyond that in Washington arguing for going further than the president in terms of an accelerated withdrawal, arguing that we have no business and he has no authority in Libya, arguing we should do nothing in Syria, arguing that we should not have any role in Iraq and beyond," he said.
On the campaign trail, several contenders have raised doubts about the extent of our mission in Afghanistan and Libya, including former U.S. Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman, Rep. Ron Paul, Rep. Michele Bachmann, and — to a lesser extent — former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney.
The Huffington Post quoted Rep. Paul's son, Senator Rand Paul, attacking Pawlenty's use of the word isolationist.
"It's not a valid term. It's a pejorative term. It's name calling," Paul told the website. "Isolationism would mean that you're nowhere any of the time and you're completely within a walled-in state. I don't know anybody who's for that."
Americans largely support Obama's Afghan plan
Though the GOP field is somewhat divided on the president's Afghanistan withdrawal plan, a majority of Americans polled recently by Gallup, backed what he's doing. 72 percent supported his plan, while 23 percent opposed it. 50 percent of Republicans said they agreed with his decision to pull 10,000 troops out this year.
When the poll got into specifics of numbers, it found that 29 percent wanted more troops to come home, 19 percent said the number of troops Obama mentioned was too high. 43 percent thought the figure was just right.
NYT/CBS Poll on Republican candidates: Great news for "Anyone else"
Meanwhile, in another poll, likely Republican voters seemed unimpressed with their field of candidates so far. Only 23 percent said they were satisfied with the people in the race. 71 percent said they wanted more choices.
67 percent could not name a single candidate they were excited about. While Mitt Romney and Michele Bachmann both had 7 percent saying they were enthusiastic about their candidacies.
The poll wasn't all bad news for Republicans. It found that Democrats are less enthusiastic about the race in general than Republicans. Only 24 percent of Democrats said they were more excited for 2012 than they were for 2008. 33 percent of Republicans were more excited this year and self-described Tea Party supporters were 44 percent more excited.
Perry to Justice Department: Stop Gaza flotilla
Gov. Rick Perry hasn't announced he's running for president yet, but he's already wading into international issues and sounding a lot like a candidate. This week he sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder urging him to do more to stop a planned flotilla of ships to Gaza, which are carrying humanitarian supplies. Israel has a maritime blockade against Gaza.
"As an American citizen and governor of one of its largest states…I write to encourage you to aggressively pursue all available legal remedies to enjoin and prevent these illegal actions, and to prosecute any who may elect to engage in them in spite of your preemptive efforts," Perry wrote.
Perry said participating in the flotilla would violate U.S. law because it would provide "material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization," meaning Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip and is on the U.S. State Department list of terrorist organizations.
According to the Houston Chronicle, Perry has visited Israel several times in the past and "has touted what he calls its 'special kinship' with Texas."

Omaha, Lincoln Jiffy Lube Stores 'Calling All Cars' to Help Raise $10,000 for Humane Society, Celebrate Grand Re-Openings
OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ — One local oil change business is going to the dogs – and cats. Sixteen years after Jiffy Lube first came to the area, it recently invested nearly $1 million in a new look and efforts to enhance customer service. To celebrate, Jiffy Lube franchisee Heartland Automotive Services Inc. is having a grand re-opening of its Omaha and Lincoln stores and partnering with the local Humane Society.

Through Aug. 27, Jiffy Lube will make a donation to the Nebraska Humane Society for every Jiffy Lube Signature Service® Oil Change performed at Jiffy Lube service centers in the area. Customers also are encouraged to make a $2 donation at stores to help achieve the goal of raising $10,000. In addition, customers can enter the Shell Gas Card Sweepstakes to win $500, $300 or $200 in free gas.
Mayor Jim Suttle and Douglas County Board of Commissioners Chair Mary Ann Borgeson joined Jiffy Lube Heartland executives and Nebraska Humane Society Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations Pam Wiese to kick off the two-week charitable drive at the 18240 Wright St. Omaha location to highlight the changes Jiffy Lube has made for customers.
"I am proud to recognize Jiffy Lube for their long-standing commitment to our city," said Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle. "Jiffy Lube is a shining example of Omaha's generous business community and the company is providing further evidence of its dedication to investing in its customers, employees and the community."
Jiffy Lube, which pioneered the first drive-through service, window cling reminder stickers and drive-in underground service bays, has 200 employees that service close to 170,000 cars a year in the Omaha and Lincoln areas. Nearly two years ago, the oil change operator decided it needed to better differentiate Jiffy Lube among quick lube operators and focus even more on service. The result was re-imaging and Operational Excellence programs that include a new look to the exterior and interior of stores and a greater focus on customer service.
"We embarked on a significant cultural shift to drive a great guest experience," said Brett Ponton, CEO of Heartland, Jiffy Lube's largest franchisee and operator of the Omaha/Lincoln stores as well as Best of Omaha Award winner for 2008 & 2009. "We've already seen the difference. Service centers that have completed the new look and guest care program are outperforming stores that have not undergone the transformation."
In fact, customers are responding to the new look and improvement in service so much so that nationally those Jiffy Lube locations that have undergone re-imaging and implemented Operational Excellence are experiencing on average 3.6 percent more vehicles per day.
The re-introduction to area Jiffy Lube stores, called "Unleashing a New Standard in Service," is a nod to the fact that Jiffy Lube is both going through a business change and wants to celebrate with the community by supporting the local Humane Society. The Jiffy Lube grand re-opening event today included a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the dignitaries in attendance to re-dedicate the store as well as a one-day pet adoption area. Community members could adopt a dog or cat onsite and donate to the Humane Society during the event.
"We appreciate Jiffy Lube elevating the conversation around these animals in need," Wiese said. "A trip to Jiffy Lube can mean a trip home for an animal."
As customers stop by Omaha and Lincoln Jiffy Lube locations during the next two weeks, they not only can support the Humane Society, but they can see improvements in the overall look, feel and personalized customer experience of the stores firsthand.
"Our guests depend on us to get it right and deliver a great experience," Ponton said. "We understand that times are tough for many people in the area. Their cars are important to them, and they want to get the best experience and value for their dollar."

Australian Test 'debutant' and Twenty20 captain George Bailey is reportedly in risk of losing his brief and joyful Test career due to a controversial Decision Review System (DRS) decision following a calamitious batting collapse of the hosts on the second day of the fourth Ashes Test in the MCG.
Although Bailey was given out caught behind for a duck as Australia collapsed to 9/164 on Friday to trail England by 91, but top scorer Chris Rogers (61) claimed that the Tasmanian captain was 'adamant' he did not hit the ball.
According to Telegraph.com.au, umpire Aleem Dar gave Bailey not out caught behind cutting, only for the line on real time snickometer to vibrate as the ball went past the bat, following which third umpire Billy Bowden sent Bailey on his way out of the field.
Meanwhile, Rogers also said that he believes that the DRS is working 'pretty well' although he added that there might still be a few glitches in the system.
Bailey has recorded largely poor and unconvincing first innings scores which might see him miss the last and final Test in Sydney, along with the South Africa tour in February, unless he can bat Australia to victory with a significant score.
The report mentioned that Bailey scored a 19-ball, 38-minute duck on Friday as Australia collapsed to 6/122 before the imposing Brad Haddin attempted another rescue mission with a blistering counter attack.

Recent Sugarbush Mountain Reviews
Great property in Waitsfield!
Great location, clean and good communication from the owners. Perfect for our ski weekend at Sugarbush!
Very Comfortable
Just got back from a great week of skiing. It was always a delight too come back to this comfortable and well maintained house after a day of skiing. Mad River and Sugerbush were only a short drive away. The owners were very easy to deal with and answered all emails promptly.
Perfect farmhouse
My family and I had a great time at this house. Wish we could have stayed longer because we didn't get to do all that we wanted! The house was clean and comfortable. It had lots of room for my family to spread out. The kids loved the fire pit and barn. I liked the 2 full bathes! The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully equiped. The living room and family were quite comfortable too.We would definately recommend this property to our freinds and would love to visit again. Joy was very pleasant too!

Reventlow-Museet Pederstrup
The manor house Pederstrup is situated in the middle of the Lollander Alpines. The manor contains the Reventlow Museum. The main building of Pederstrup is built from the years 1813 until 1822 in a new classicistic style by Prime Minister C.D.F. Reventlow (1748 – 1827).
He was one of the leaders behind the great agriculture reforms in the end of the 17th century. Furthermore he pioneered in the fields of schools and forestry.
The museum, which was founded in 1940, illustrates Reventlow´s life as a statesman, a reformer and a landowner. It is an interior museum, where the history is told by means of portraits, objects of art, documents and furniture. Many of these things have belonged to Reventlow.
Pederstrup is surrounded by a 20 hectare big park, which is open all the year. A riding house, worthy of preservation, is built in 1872. It is used for special exhibitions, meetings and more.
A café is fitted up in the former wash house.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/9/14
Tom Coughlin had concerns about the New York Giants' running game on both sides heading into the season. Nothing has changed after the first preseason game. The running game averaged a dismal 2.54 yards on 33 attempts in the 18-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday night. The first-team defense was shaky in its brief stint against one of the NFL's hard-nosed rushing attacks. However, the offensive line played without starting right guard Chris Snee and his backup James Brewer. The defensive line was minus defensive ends Justin Tuck (back) and Jason Pierre-Paul (PUP). Coughlin was satisfied with a long touchdown pass from Eli Manning to Victor Cruz and good special teams play.
