Carnivora — Venus Flytrap
share page
"For almost three decades, world renowned oncological pioneer Dr. Helmut Keller has developed powerful non-toxic synergistic treatments for the presence of life threatening diseases -- as well as chronic infectious and other auto immune diseases and disorders. In 1973 he came upon the dionaea muscipula species of natural plant. His discovery would yield a patented extract he would call "Carnivora." Little did he know that some 30 years later Dr. Keller and his Carnivora would be responsible for having saved and prolonged many lives around the world from the ravages of one of the world's most deadly diseases -- Cancer."
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has begun a "designer foods" program to investigate disease-fighting compounds in herbs and foods, particularly for cancer prevention. Many culinary herbs are good candidates - tarragon and rosemary inhibit tumors and parsley neutralizes carcinogens. (For instance, rosemary stimulates a detoxifying enzyme.) Researchers at the University of Illinois, Chicago have found that many herbs contain cancer-preventives, especially antioxidants - thyme (Thymus spp.) has 40 and basil (Ocimum basilicum) registers more than 30. Rutgers scientists speculate that even small amounts of culinary herbs reduce cancer risks and think concentrated extracts are not needed to obtain beneficial results.

Strong evidence points to turmeric (Curcuma longa) as an anti-cancer agent. Scientists at the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) in Hyderbad, India, Kamala Krishnaswkkamy and Kalpakkam Polasa, gave 16 chronic smokers 1.5 gm tablets of turmeric daily for 30 days. Urinary excretion of mutagens and the ability of enzymes to detoxify carcinogens were both improved. The control group of 6 non-smokers experienced no changes. Since tobacco mutagens cause genetic damage when they alter chromosomes, smokers have a 3 to 8-fold increase in mutagen excretions. In an additional study, turmeric reduced tumors in animals. The average consumption of turmeric in India is estimated at 0.6 gm daily among rural people and 0.4 gm daily in urban areas. The researchers recommend an intake of 1.5 gm daily.

The Venus fly-trap (Dionaea muscipula) may be the up-and-coming immune stimulating herb. Plubagin, isolated from the common house plant in 1988, boosted immunity in human cancer cells during several labs tests. Dr. Helmut Keller of Germany, curious about his wife's window plants, has done extensive tests on humans and hamsters. In clinical studies, using a decrease in ATP to measure the increase of actions that slow the development of cancer cells, a 50% change occurred after 1 hour and a 100% change after 24 hours (1:10 dilution). Cancer in hamsters was reduced by 59% with no toxicity.

Ashwaganda (Withania somnifera), promoted as "Indian ginseng," has traditionally been used in Ayurvedic medicine to treat a variety of illnesses. Studies conducted by the Department of Radiobiology and Ayurvedic Kasturbe Medical College, Manipal, helped confirm previous studies that found withaferin-A, an alkaloid extracted from the leaves, inhibits tumor growth in cancer cells. The latest study reports that mice treated with doses of 400 mg./kg, body weight experienced complete tumor regression. Larger doses of 1000 mg. were less effective, resulting in a 55% complete response.

Through cell culturing, Escagenetics in San Carlos, CA has created a cheaper way to make natural vanilla which usually sells for $1,200 / pound. When multiplied in laboratory dish, tissue samples of vanilla grow into a large colony of cells. The resulting extract contains vanilla's more than 200 trace compounds with all their subtle overtones that enhance the flavor. The $7/pound synthetic, consists primarily of just the compound vanillin. At less than $200 per pound, it is suitable for premium ice creams and baked goods.

The regular use of dried garlic powder may reduce heart disease risk. In a study conducted by the German Association of General Practitioners, doctors at the Royal United Hospital gave 800 mg. garlic tablets (standardized to 1.3% allicin) to 261 patients over a 4-month period. Cholesterol levels dropped an average of 12% and triglyceride levels reduced an 17% average. Cholesterol levels over 300 dropped to an average of 272 mg./dl. The study was described as the largest clinical study ever done on garlic.

Researchers have proved a link between stress and the common cold (actually an assortment of 200 different viruses). Dr. Sheldon Cohen, professor of psychology at Carnegie Mellon University gave almost 400 people self-evaluating stress tests before exposing them to cold viruses. The higher the stress, the more likely they were to get a cold.

In a clinical study with 67 men over 67 years old, prostate enlargement symptoms were reduced with stinging nettle (Urticadioica) and dog nettle (U. urens) roots. Mild cases were relieved after taking an alcohol extract for 3 weeks. Severe cases had fewer results and took longer. In all cases, there was little additional improvement after 3 months of therapy. Scientists from the Department de Phytotherapie, Medicine Facility of Bobigny, Paris, France, stated "Urtica appears to be a useful therapy for milder cases ..." and an alternative to surgery. (Testosterone therapy activates latent prostate cancer.) The article mentions using nettle leaves and saw palmetto berries (Serenoa serrulata). Hypoxis rooperi tubers and pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo), also used for prostate problems, contain abundant amounts of B-sitosterol, a mild anti-inflammatory.

When Jerry L. McLaughlin, pharmacognosist at Purdue University, IN, first tasted paw-paw (Asimina triloba) at age four, he threw up - and never forgot it! (Immature fruit and twigs are toxic, but ripe fruit can be eaten- in moderation.) He has patented a paw-paw-derived pesticide to market in 4-5 years. One of paw-paw's active acetogenin compounds (asimicin), nearly 200 times more active than strychnine, is effective against blowfly larvae, spider mites, Mexican bean and cucumber beetles, mosquito larvae, melon aphids and a nemotode. Six active acetogenins have been isolated, including bullatacin: one million times more potent than the common anti-ovarian cancer drug, cisplatin. Also found in paw-paw's Cuban relative (Annona bullata), it is currently being tested by the National Cancer Institute. A new compound, trilobacin, suppresses growth of cultured cells of leukemia and lung, colon, renal, skin and ovarian cancers. Instead of the typical method of killing a cell by scrambling its DNA, acetogenins starve the rapidly dividing cells of ATP, which acts as fuel, making them unlikely to cause cancer.

W. R. Graces and Co. acquired patents from Vikwood Botanicals Inc. for a neem (Azadirachta indica) insecticide "Margosan-O" for release in 1993. The azadirachtin from neem represents a new class of pesticide that disrupts hormonal changes in the larva of over 200 insects, including mosquito, and cockroaches, but doesn't effect adult insects like honey bees or birds, pets or people. The complex molecule makes it difficult to develop resistance, compared to synthetic oranophosphates like malathion and diaxinon or the carbaryl Sevin, which attack the nervous system. [Ed. Note: In 1990, over 30 million pounds of insecticides were applied to residential gardens and lawns.]

A spray of 0.25% neem oil emulsified in water showed 100% success in destroying pests. In controlled experiments, it protected stored corn and other foods up to 10 months. Entomologist at the University of Illinois, Robert Mercalf says, "In this day and age when we're not very happy about synthetic pesticides, it has great appeal."

Natural Medicine for Cancer: LEADING EDGE INFORMATION PRESENTED
One in three: those are the odds of a North American living today to be given a diagnosis of cancer at some point in their lifetime. What is even more disturbing are the reports that modern science has largely failed in its massive and expensive war against cancer.
In order to satisfy many of our members' questions regarding natural methods of curing, treating and preventing this disease, Health Action Network Society launched its Alternative Cancer Project last January. On June 13, the fruit of that research was presented at a public forum.
Roxanne Davies, a journalist, freelance writer and cancer researcher for HANS, presented her six month research involving scientific articles, books and correspondence with treatment centers worldwide.
Many promising therapies used in Europe and South America never reach North America for lack of public knowledge and intervention by the medical and pharmaceutical interests.
Ms. Davies outlined the variety of natural and non-toxic therapies which have had good results, including laetrile, shark cartilage, Carnivora (Venus Fly Trap), 714X, antioxidant vitamins, flax seed oil, and the Chinese Tianhua anti-cancer pill, to name a few.
Diet is very important since it is estimated a cancer patient's diet must be twenty times more nutritious than that of the average person, studies have shown.
Reviewing 200 cases of so-called spontaneous remissions of cancer, Victoria University professor Harold Foster found in 1988 that the great majority of these people (88%) had made major dietary changes, usually switching to a strictly vegetarian diet and avoiding white flour, sugar, canned and frozen foods, before their dramatic turnout regression or complete remission occurred. Most of these patients also used vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements as well as detoxification methods.
Ms. Davies also discussed the various healing properties of the Gerson and Kelley diets and the benefits and uses of oxygen therapies which are used throughout the world for serious degenerative conditions. A Vancouver area women who cured her lung cancer using oxygen therapies, brought along her X-rays to provide proof of the success of her oxygen remedy.
A unique therapy called "Body Electronics" created by American naturopath Dr. John Whitman Ray uses nutrient saturation through diet and supplementation and a method of sustained accupressure to release emotional blocks.
Dr. Ray believes that our emotions and thoughts eventually form into a kind of protein "computer chip" and these are lodged in numerous points throughout the body. The body heals on a physical level after the "tight suit" of the emotions is removed.
HANS has added many new and informative books on cancer treatment to its library, as well as two filing cabinets filled with information gathered from clinical studies and treatment centers.
Heartwarming yet fact-filled testimonials by two recovering cancer patients were also included in the day's event.
Byrun Tylor, a 68 year-old retired mining prospector was diagnosed with throat cancer in October 1992. He declined his doctor's recommendation for radiation and began his healing journey with major lifestyle changes including diet, supplements, exercise and essiac tea. He drinks Fresh fruit and vegetable juice daily, bakes his own bread and is busy researching alternatives and sharing his knowledge through a self-published book entitled Ramblings.
Audrey Henderson, a retired teacher, gave an emotional account of her recovery from uterine cancer using 714X, the Moerman diet and positive thinking. She gave details of her diet and recounted the emotional events which she feels weighed heavily on her throughout her life and how she developed a healthy mental attitude and a "take-charge" approach to life.
Audrey and Byrun are but two people who are recovering from cancer. They have turned the millstones of the cancer diagnosis into milestones along their healing journey. Those who have healed their cancers all share the same characteristics. They made an intensive and prolonged personal efforts, enjoyed vital, healthy lifestyle changes, received effective support from family, friends and support groups and sought the best results from appropriate medical treatment.
The keynote speaker was Dr. Don Branigan, a holistic medical doctor and former mayor of White Horse, Yukon. Dr. Branigan was inspiring, as usual, with his candid, humorous yet scientific discussion of treatments he is exploring with which to help his northern patients.
Dr. Branigan is only one of a handful of Canadian doctors who has a "Somatoscope", a unique microscope which uses ultra violet light to see the somatids in the blood. He brought his unit for a demonstration.
Somatids were identified by Gaston Naessens, a Quebec biologist and researcher, as tiny bodies of energy/matter and they can indicate the status of the immune system. Dr. Branigan explained that viewing the somatids is similar to looking at a star-filled evening sky and indicates in a profound way that we are merely an extension of our external universe.
The fascinating story of Gaston Naessens and the somatid theory and its importance in treating and preventing degenerative conditions is recounted in an excellent book, The Galileo of the Microscope by author Christopher Bird. (To order this fascinating book from HANS, see page 14.)
Dr. Branigan is also investigating another interesting treatment called "Life Crystals", developed by American nuclear physicist, Dr. George Merkl.
Dr. Merkl claims to have discovered pre-nucleic intelligent life, the precursors to mitochondria that he has called "Chondriana". Mitochondria are small granular bodies found in the cytoplasm of the cell, where energy production occurs.
Chondriana apparently can enhance organized attacks against cellular invaders such as virus, bacteria, fungi and pathogens. As well, it may stimulate cellular structural repairs due to damage caused by free radicals, pollution and background radiation.
Dr. Branigan said he began experimenting with the chondriana treatment when his own blood picture showed that he was in a precancerous condition. He has also been injecting himself with 714X. He told the audience that the combination of both may provide an optimum treatment to reverse degenerative disease.
He said the first thing he noticed when be began the treatment was an increase in energy, sphincter control and better facial colour. The body is thrown into a healing crisis when taking the "Life Crystals" as toxins are released into the blood and one can feel uncomfortable as body temperature rises, however this is temporary.
Dr. Branigan believes the future will be one which employs energy medicine. We are no just chemicals, but also electricity. There are now machines which can detect electromagnetic frequencies and we will achieve health by balancing our various body frequencies.
"Life Crystals" injectables are only available from Dr. Merkl's El Paso, Texas laboratory, Dr. Merkl will be in Vancouver on September 25, 1993 to present his research.

Really though, at this point the only hope I have left is that people figure out change isn't inherently good like the soon to be public burdens of double cheeseburgers, cheese stuffed pizza, cheese stuffed cheese, and anything else people enjoy as consolation to the real garbage politicians continue to bring to our lives. Sure, all the stuff I just mentioned are bad for you and bring health problems that the public dole will naturally not tolerate, but I would rather be allowed to get fat and have a heart attack than be told how to take care of my health by "BHO the Chain Smokin' Ho".

To be sure, change can be good.After a week I finally changed my underpants.....I turned them inside out.
Welcome to Obama

President Bush tried this kind of crap with the immigration issue. Fighting for the status quo isn't always a such a bad thing...sometimes we need to persuade politicians to keep punching us in the stomach in order to prevent them from kicking us in the teeth with steel toed boots (made in China)
Wait, if they do that then we can save billions in dental coverage, now I see what the Democrats are getting at with concept of preventative care.

The Texas Longhorns were scheduled to hold a nine inning scrimmage and scout day on Sunday afternoon at UFCU Disch-Falk Field but the game was shortened by rain.
The star of the day on the mound was junior RHP Taylor Jungmann who pitched two hitless innings while allowing a walk and striking out two batters. Junior LHP Andrew McKirahan was very good on the day also as he let up two hits in two innings of work but struck out five batters while picking off a baserunner. The other star on the hill was sophomore LHP Hoby Milner who retired all six batters he faced while striking out three.

People aren't joking when they say that first impressions
count. According to some wise people, the first time you meet someone, you're
judged on your appearance within the first twenty seconds and trying to change
that impression is almost as difficult as teaching your cat to play fetch. Though
an image consultation might sound like something out of reality television, it's
just a way to make sure that your first twenty seconds work in your favour.
Surrounded by soft lighting and mirrors that don't add twenty extra bulges,
you'll be able to see exactly what effect your fashion-flavoured guidance is
Helping the fashion illiterate to find tasteful threads and colours to flatter their unique figures and build self-confidence, Absolute Signature is all about creating your own personal style, enhancing the pretty that nature gave you and hiding whatever you don't like. The experienced coiffure architects will help you pick out the best makeup to wear, colours to complement your complexion and clothing that doesn't hang like a burlap sack – hair colour and style are covered too, because they're experts in in-home wardrobe revitalisation and the upgrading of sombre styles. Once you've been given the 411 on what to wear, how to wear it and what colour it should be, finish off with a manicure and pedicure to kick-start your confidence boost - upgrade to gel, gelish or colour nails if you're looking for that extra bit of oomph. If you decide to change your hairstyle right then and there, they're conveniently located on a hair-dressers site, which is qualified to do change the shape of your eyebrows to.
After the consultation, you'll be supplied with a colour chart and guidance booklet so that it doesn't feel like you've been tossed in the metaphorical deep-end the next time you go shopping. Just in case you do feel like you're swimming in piranha-infested water the next time you're staring at racks of shirts, they'll also give you a follow-up call to see how you're coping and whether or not you have any other concerns.Fashionable Fact: Marie Antoinette is rumoured to have had a trained pet Pomeranian which picked her outfits for her. Apparently, she would let the toy-Pom loose in her wardrobe, and wear whatever dresses and accessories he barked at.

More ailing horses seized from Ramona stables
10 horses seized from same property 2 months ago
RAMONA, Calif. - Animal control officers seized nearly two dozen more unhealthy horses this week from a North County woman from whom they impounded 10 others two months ago, authorities reported Thursday.
The 22 horses and foals were confiscated Monday at property owned by Lori Patton of Ramona, according to the county Department of Animal Services. The officers simultaneously took custody of eight dogs, a cat, a rabbit, a guinea pig and three pet mice.
Personnel with the county agency had been monitoring the herd of horses since the May 23 seizure to make sure the animals were receiving proper care.
DAS officers said they recently noticed that a number of the horses were becoming thin and posted a notice at Patton's property last week, stating that the animals would be seized if their conditions failed to improve.
Patton then requested a hearing to contest the proposed seizure. It was held last Friday, and the supervising officer's decision three days later authorized the seizure of all animals on the property.
"The owner was not providing the necessary care to improve the health of the horses, which left us no choice but to seize her animals and take them into protective custody," said Animal Services Director Dawn Danielson.
A veterinarian examined the horses and found they were all below the proper weight and that some needed dental care. Treatment regimens were then undertaken.
A criminal investigation also was ongoing, Danielson said.
Patton has 14 days to reclaim her animals if she shows she can provide the necessary care and attention for them and if she can pay the cost of their seizure, housing and medical care.
Most of the horses taken from Patton last spring when they were found without food and water have been adopted, according to the animals-services agency.

The Community Service Fellowship Program (CSFP) provides International Travel grants. These grants were created in 2007 to support GSD students interested in volunteer work throughout the world. The request for funding must be related to the application of skills acquired through training at the GSD in community service. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
Recent successful applications included:
- Funding for airfare to New Delhi, India, to work with Micro Home Solutions. This nonprofit's mission is to provide economically viable housing solutions for underserved populations. The student explored issues related to the construction and retrofitting of existing housing stock, and developed design prototypes based on three key principles: community, affordability and sustainable design.
- Funding for travel to the city of Hanoi, Vietnam, to work with the nonprofit organization Healthbridge in their Livable Cities program. The student identified remaining markets for fresh, healthy and nutritious food, and assisted with preservation from a public health and cultural heritage perspective.
- Funding for airfare to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for a participatory mapping project for youth centered in favelas, or shantytowns. Along with a community partner, Rede Jovem, students worked with youth to digitally and manually map their community. They also worked with the Rio planning department to understand how to best deliver the youths' data for consideration in planning decisions.
The CSFP International Travel deadline is closed in 2015.
An Info Session is offered annually in the fall. Students will receive an announcement in October 2015.
- Travel cannot be funded for thesis research or strictly academic work. Preference is given to students who perform work on the ground, such as helping with informal settlements and construction efforts to relieve homelessness.
- Funding is limited. Students who are awarded funding have often volunteered time and effort to an organization for a semester before they apply. Several students continue to stay involved after they complete the CSFP.
- We strongly prefer our volunteers to stay in the country for a minimum of one to two months. Several students have volunteered for two or three months, such as those who have travelled to India and Indonesia.
All GSD students with appropriate work experience who will be returning to the GSD in the Fall following the Fellowship are eligible to apply.
Please contact Meryl Golden, Director of Career Services, for more information on the Community Service Fellowship Programs.

Marci Reisman, Margaret Hebert, Xae Alicia Reyes and Wiley Dawson
Eastern seniors Wiley Dawson Jr. and Marci Reisman, University of Connecticut Professor Xae Alicia Reyes and Eastern retiree Margaret Hebert were recognized with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Distinguished Service Awards on March 14 at a reception in the J. Eugene Smith Library. The awards recognize members of the campus community and community-at-large whose actions demonstrate distinguished service in promoting the ideals of King and to further the goals of diversity and social equality.
Keynote Speaker Hasani Pettiford called the awardees "four extraordinary community leaders and agents of change." He noted that King was also an agent of change, someone who sought out and confronted injustice at every opportunity. Pettiford asked everyone present also to be change agents as "disciples of your own destiny."
Reyes said she grew up in a family with a tradition of service; her mother would translate things into English for neighbors and her father would help other families by getting groceries or driving people without a car to the doctor's when they needed a ride. "Service is in our veins," she said. Reyes was especially moved that both of her sons could attend the ceremony.
It was estimated that Margaret Hebert has helped more than 1,800 students to enroll in the STEP/CAP program, with more than 1,700 admitted to Eastern following the summer program. Over 29 years, she saw more than 1,400 STEP/CAP students graduate from college. "I found my calling," she explained. She said she was proud to have spent her 33-year career in higher education promoting educational opportunity. "We still have a lot of work to do."
Dawson talked about his early years when he was placed in a special education classroom for three years. "I had no sense that I could do anything." Today, he has forged a history of success, participation and leadership at Eastern. "In order to be successful, you need to be comfortable being uncomfortable. I continue to be inspired by the people at Eastern to do more."
Reisman has served as a resident assistant since 2009; participated in the Summer Orientation Program as a counselor; worked in the Office of Career Services as a student assistant and interned with the Connecticut Judicial Branch; is involved in many of Eastern's clubs and organizations, including the Student Government Association, F.E.M.A.L.E.S., Senior Class Committee, Pathways to Leadership and the Omnicron Delta Kappa Honor Society.

Washington DC Weather: Hot and humid for the Fourth
From warm and muggy to hot and humid...with continuing chances for showers and thunderstorms.
- Photo by James Joslyn
- Today:
- Some sun, warm and muggy with showers possible
Highs: Mid to Upper 80s
- Rain Chance: 40%
- Overnight:
- Showers ending. Mild and muggy
- Lows: 68º-74º
- Wind: South 5-10 mph
- 4th of July:
- Partly sunny, hot and humid with a 20% chance pm t-storms
- Highs: Upper 80s
- Rain Chance: 30%
We have been waiting for the large area of high pressure, over the Western Atlantic, to begin drifting westward...toward the mid-Atlantic coastline. That drift has begun. This movement will not end the continuous flow of warm, humid air from the south. It will shift it a bit to the west, towards the moutains. As a result, our daily chances of rain will drop from likely to possible but at the same time, temperatures will climb. It will become uncomfortably hot and humid. And it will stay that way through early next week. While we are groaning at the prospect of highs in the lower 90s, check out the incredible heat out west:
Learn more in Lauryn Ricketts latest Storm Watch 7 blog!
If you are heading to the Delmarva Beaches this weekend, the weather trends are looking good for you. Partly to mostly sunny skies with highs in the 80s are forecast for the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th of July. This forecast is predicated on the area of high pressure, described above, behaving as I discussed.

I'm sorry, but a lot of this tab is just plain wrong. It seems the lead guitar accidentally changes keys in some sections... Maybe if you made the rhythm guitar/synth sections actually repeat throughout the entire song, you wouldn't have made that mistake. Tabbing the bass would have been nice too, it's only 4 notes...

MSA Awareness Ambassadors
Leading up to March Multiple System Atrophy Awareness month, I will be nominating individuals or groups as "MSA Awareness Ambassadors" by presenting them with this MSA Awareness badge. A list of nominees and the reason for their nomination will be highlighted on this page and also on our sister site Multiple System Atrophy Awareness Month on facebook. It is my hope that those tagged will agree to spread MSA Awareness during the month of March as representatives of this movement around the world. And as "imitation is the greatest form of flattery", it's also my hope that others will be inspired by their good works. These are all people or organizations that stand out in their efforts to support MSA patients and their families and/or to raise the profile of Multiple System Atrophy in the general public. If you know of an unsung MSA Awareness hero who you'd like to nominate please forward their name to me at email@example.com and state why you think they should be an MSA Awareness Ambassador. Cheers! Pam

Ally Bank Offers Check Scanning
Ally Bank is one of my favorite online banks. The bank offers a reasonable interest rate compared to traditional banks and has really good customer service.The bank offers some of my favorite savings and CD products. Ally Bank is always updating its features to stay competitive with brick and mortar banks. Today, I want to take a look at the newest feature.
The bank has recently unveiled a free check scanning service. The service is called eCheck deposit. The bank rolled this service out in the spring and has been working out all of the kinks. The eCheck deposit service is finally at a level where I feel it could benefit banking customers.
Ally Bank eCheck Deposit Process
Ally Bank lets you deposit checks into your Ally Bank account anywhere you have access to a scanner. All you need to use the service is an endorsed check, personal computer and a scanner.
Here's how it works:
- You will use the automated scanning wizard or upload the front and back of your check manually using your own scanner's software.
- You will receive an email within one business day confirming the amount of your deposit.
- You will start earning interest on your funds faster.
This is a really convenient feature and it should help the bank attract new customers. Digital check scanning will likely be the norm at most financial institutions in the future. The eCheck deposit service is new and will take getting used to. I do like the fact that the check scanning feature works for Mac users like me. The monthly limit for deposits using eCheck deposit is $10,000. So, those of you with larger checks will need to schedule online transfers. Also, be sure to hold onto your check for at least 60 days before destroying it.
You can deposit money into any financial product at Ally Bank including savings accounts, money markets, and certificates of deposit.
3 Responses to "Ally Bank Offers Check Scanning"
the FREE ally echeck scan looks good -but if you are using it for a business the 10k in deposits a month will likely be a problem
This is awesome! The check deposit issue has been one of the last remaining things that has prevented me from getting rid of my Bank of America banks and switching to an online one.
The only other outstanding problem I have is getting certified checks if needed. Do you know if Ally is planning to start doing that as well?
I've been a customer well before they were even Ally (GMAC.) I really like their checking, but I really hope that one day they can add an iPhone app so that I can scan my checks instead. Would anyone know a great alternative that allows me to use my phone? I'm looking for something with a great interest rate.

The Kurdish Globe
By Sama Dizayee
She began performing at the age of sixteen, released her first album at the age of nineteen, and since her first album, has become the standalone female Kurdish artist. Chopy Fatah, born in 1983 in the city of Kirkuk, immigrated with her family to Holland for political reasons at the age of five. Chopy is now one of Kurdistan's most riveting and talked about artists as she continues her success in the Kurdish music industry and enters the Western music market. As her career evolves, she continually demonstrates success in her field of work as a Kurdish woman.
Globe: Can you tell the Kurdish Globe readers how Chopy Fatah begun her musical career? Since you started singing at a very young age, were you personally motivated to do so? Was there someone who pushed you?
Chopy Fatah: It's on my website, no, I'm kidding [she laughs]. I started singing as a solo artist in a choir at the age of sixteen at the Kurdish Music Academy in Germany. The Kurdish Music Academy consisted of a group of mostly Kirmanj Kurds [from North of Kurdistan], and they received invitation from organizations to perform big concerts and festivals in Koln, Germany, with Kurdish crowds of more than 100,000 people attending every year. Jawad Mirwani, who was also a member and a singer, appreciated my vocals and my performance and introduced me to Medya TV in Belgium (Sterk TV now) where he also asked me to appear on TV programs. I started singing on a program called "Shana-sheen" at Medya TV with Barzan Shaswar and since then I was asked for more TV shows, this also led me to my first concert in The Hague, Netherlands, with the crowd of more than 3000 in the year 2000.
When I came to Holland, I started listening to English music a lot. Growing up to the music of Madonna, Celine Dion, and Whitney Houston; along the road I also started listening to Mariah Carey. I have to say that until now Whitney Houston and Mariah Carrey are my role models and I look up to them as artists. And I come from a family with a musical background, for instance my mother's uncle, the late Mohammed Tawfiq Shilek was known for "Maqamati Safar" which is a genre of Kurdish music. Also my Father had a big library of musical cassettes that he guarded with his life and brought it with him to Holland.
Every day when I was kid I used to listen to them and now I look back and think to myself how beautiful it was that we were able to bring a little bit of Kurdistan, the cassettes, with us to Holland, and that's when I fell in love with our rich Kurdish music. But I have to be honest and admit the bigger reason for me to fall in love with Kurdish music was my mother, I grew up with her "laya laya" songs, the sleeping songs, where it's my bedtime and I stare at my mother's eyes while she's singing until I fall asleep.
The people who supported me and gave me the power to be behind the microphone and sing were my parents, my dear husband, and the people who loved me such as my two brothers, my cousins, and my friends who live in Holland.
Globe: Tell me about your first concert in Kurdistan and how was the reaction of the audience? What did you feel performing for the first time as an artist in Kurdistan?
Chopy: I was eighteen and I was invited by the Ministry of Culture to perform for the first time in Hawler at Media Hall and as many people as they were inside, there were twice as many outside and when I saw that I gasped for a second and then automatically I started crying. It was one of my happiest moments of my life that I will never forget. It was definitely a dream come true, we ran away to Holland because of the horror of Saddam's regime and now I'm being able to return to Kurdistan and perform to my Kurdish audience in the city of Hawler, that itself will always be memory I can never forgot.
Globe: How many albums have you released so far? What do you think of Kurdish artists who start off their career in Kurdish music and then move onto singing in English? Don't you think at some point it will attract the artist to be more into the English music industry and abandon their Kurdish work?
Chopy: So far I have released four Kurdish solo CDs and my fifth album is on the way, scheduled to be released in June 2012 under the title "Baran". I have also released three English songs and music videos "Draw the Line", "My Homeland", and "Think of Me". Goran Kay is the composer of these songs and we actually managed to record a whole English album together that is scheduled for release in 2013 inshallah.
Personally, I like to sing in both languages, Kurdish and English. I follow both at the same time and give both the same quality of work with no differentiation. I started singing Kurdish professionally first then followed by English but we can't hide the fact that growing up in Holland has exposed me to English music on daily basis. I think we can't live without music and if we, as Kurdish artists, can reach out for more than the Kurdish audience, it will certainly be a huge success, not only for ourselves but for Kurdistan as well because we will be presenting the talent of our country at the end of the day. So no matter what we do, and in what language we sing we can never forget that we are Kurdish artists and performing for the Kurdish audience first then to the rest of the world.
Globe: What message are you trying to send to the rest of the world besides the Kurds by singing in English? Do you think you are taking advantage of being a famous Kurdish singer in marketing your English works?
Chopy: I want to show through my music that a person from Kurdistan, raised in Holland can bring those two cultures together in music and show their talent and what they have learned from both cultures. Two, I'm also sending the message of love through my music, that's coming out not only from Kurdistan but from the Middle East and trying to show the real image of peace and that it's not always about war and conflict.
Answering your second question, I wouldn't say I am taking advantage of my fame as a Kurdish artist, but I would say that it is definitely marketing for me in other good opportunities. and it is certainly shortening a lot of long way paths for me to reach out for the Western music industry and have them exposed to Kurdish music industry and what our genres can offer. In the end this creates a beautiful collaboration in introducing music and always being proud of what we do.
Globe: You mentioned that your next album will be under the name "Baran(rain)", where did the inspiration of that album and the song itself came from? Were there any foreign collaborations on the "Baran" album or the English album?
Chopy: The idea behind the "Baran" was Kia Shadman from "Roj Halat" [East of Kurdistan] where rock music is one of their leading genres, and I've always been interested in rock music. I never thought that I could combine rock music with Kurdish music and for so many years I've showcased my music and Kurdish folk music. This was definitely an interesting idea that grabbed my attention and it was about time to try out something new as a gift from me to the youth of Kurdistan. And I'm happy that the music video "Baran" will be out on June 10th, which is also my birthday. I can consider it not only a gift to the Kurdish audience but also a birthday gift for me! Regarding foreign collaborations, yes I have worked with people in the West on my English album. The instrumentals were recorded in London, vocals in Holland and there are a number of people who worked on it with me. The only two Kurds who worked on my English album are my composer Goran Kay and I.
Globe: What do you think about the Kurdish identity abroad? What do you think about the role of Kurdish women in society and their contribution in nationalism?
Chopy: Kurdish women are strong, they have been through a lot; the war, losing their husbands, raising a family and the like. They've also experienced discrimination and not able to penetrate the male workforce. I feel really hurt when I see that. But also we need to stand up for ourselves and rights as Kurdish women and take part in them, not only by words but by action in contributing to our society and have the strength and power to express our ideas and thoughts.
I am more than happy to see now that women are actually contributing and participating twice as much as before in Kurdistan and outside of Kurdistan. Now I can see female police officers in the streets of Kurdistan, I see successful women as members of parliament, and business women that are also trying to reach for international business. So now we do see more contribution of women in our society and I think it will grow larger day by day.
Globe: What message does Chopy Fatah have for the young aspiring artists and for those who look up to you? What are your messages for Kurdistan itself?
Chopy: My message is love yourself, love each other, always be proud of what you reach, stand still sometimes and take a deep breath, look at what you have accomplished, and then move on to the next level of your project.
Please get educated because education is the gem of success, and mostly believe in yourself because we all as human beings tend to feel down if someone tries to bring us down or even if we fail -we learn from our failures because they are lessons. Follow your dream and never forget to believe in yourselves.
As for my message to Kurdistan, on a smaller scale, I really hope from the bottom of my heart that the people in Kurdistan drive safely because every time I am in there, I see a lot of accidents happening and I just wish that people would be careful and take care of themselves especially when they drive. On a larger scale, I want to say that I am so happy and delighted of what levels Kurds have reached, all the development, the nationalities, and the international business we see in Kurdistan just shows how far we have gone, from war and pain to development and education. With determination and success we can always reach beyond the levels we expect, so let's not stop moving forward, working together, and building the bright future of our beautiful Kurdistan for us and for the next generation.

It's happening again! I'm getting a slew of emails from friends because they don't have a clue who they should vote for in the upcoming California Democratic Party Delegate election. Like the judicial elections, the average voter is either completely clueless or is only vaguely aware of the delegate process. Most voters know very little about the candidates and still more don't know there is an election on Jan 8 and Jan 9.

Senator Hancock said that "AS STRUCTURED California is ungovernable" and she voiced her strong support for a Constitutional Convention, as well as her total support of her friend Rick Jacobs – founder of the Courage Campaign.
No on Proposition 11?

Ever wondered what it would be like to listen to God answering any question you ask? Now you can simulate the experience with godsbot (www.godsbot.org), a chatbot that gives spoken answers to typed questions on religion, philosophy and science. Creator Ron Ingram hopes godsbot will learn about God from chatting to Christians, and then "teach and share" the Christian message with others.
Convenience for medical marijuana users has achieved a new high. Along with another marijuana dispensary in Los Angeles, the Herbal Nutrition Center has installed a marijuana vending machine. After users have swiped a prepaid card that stores their prescription, the machine scans their fingerprint, takes their picture and checks these against copies stored on the card before dispensing the marijuana.

Alice Medrich's Best Cocoa Brownies
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: This recipe is one part of a master brownie recipe Medrich designed to use whatever chocolate you have in the house -- but the best version happens to be the one that only requires cocoa powder. By taking out the chocolate, with its inevitable fat and almost-inevitable sugar, Medrich was able to control and fine-tune the proportions of both. When she added back in the fat (via butter), the middles stayed softer. When she added back in granulated sugar, the crusts were shinier and more candy-like. Any cocoa will work, but natural (not Dutch process) will taste more richly of chocolate. Recipe adapted slightly from Bittersweet (Artisan, 2003) —Genius Recipes
Makes 16 large or 25 smaller brownies
- 10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (natural or Dutch-process)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cold large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (unsifted, measured by stirring briefly, spooning into the measuring cup until it's heaped above the rim, then leveling it with a straight-edged knife or spatula -- it should weigh nearly 2.5 ounces)
- 2/3 cup walnut or pecan pieces (optional)
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 325°F. Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides.
- Combine the butter, sugar, cocoa, and salt in a medium heatproof bowl and set the bowl in a wide skillet of barely simmering water. Stir from time to time until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and hot enough that you want to remove your finger fairly quickly after dipping it in to test. Remove the bowl from the skillet and set aside briefly until the mixture is only warm, not hot.
- Stir in the vanilla with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring vigorously after each one. When the batter looks thick, shiny, and well blended, add the flour and stir until you cannot see it any longer, then beat vigorously for 40 strokes with the wooden spoon or a rubber spatula. Stir in the nuts, if using. Spread evenly in the lined pan.
- Bake until a toothpick plunged into the center emerges slightly moist with batter, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack.
- Lift up the ends of the parchment or foil liner, and transfer the brownies to a cutting board. Cut into 16 or 25 squares.

I am allergic to nuts. What should would be a good substitute for the walnuts?
9 days ago Kris
You can leave it as it is . Are you looking for a crunchy substitute ? You could try rice crispies or granola clusters . These are just ideas , haven't tried it.
For non crunchy add in, I would recommend candied orange peel. Goes really well with the dark chocolate flavour or just orange zest. I have tried both.

Made these twice the 'featherlight' gluten free flour mix for my dad. Dad really approves of these.

Fabulously life-changing. I've only made David Lebovitz's supernatural brownies for the last 10 years but I'll be switching to these. I used "raw" cocoa powder which I think is the same as natural? and switched out half the white sugar for brown. I browned the butter and then added 1.5 TB of water because the mixture looked dry and smitten kitchen says that you lose water when you brown butter. My batter still seemed very stiff and dry and I baked it for just under 30 minutes. Perfectly fudgey! These have a nice buttery flavor but I'm Not too sure if you can taste the brown butter--maybe? but I'll try it next time just regular butter. And the chocolate-ness is off the charts. Would never have expected powder to deliver such a deep dark rich cacao flavor.
about 1 month ago Makenna Phillips
Just a heads up, I work in a chocolate factory, and raw cocoa means that the beans used to make the powder weren't roasted first, which won't produce as much flavor as a roasted bean. It also leaves a lot of acidity in the chocolate which isn't very good for you. Natural means non alkalized. Love the idea to use a little brown sugar though!! I left out the flour and used Francois Pralus Cocoa Powder :)

I made these brownies tonight. HOLY SHIT!!!! My cats went crazy. The smell of the brownies sent them off into some sexual deviance with our furniture. The began to claw and hump their way into the inside of each couch cushion. Other then that, the brownies weren't too bad.
4 months ago kumalavula
these come together easily and smell divine while in the oven.
i had to bake them almost 15 min longer than the recipe stated to get them cooked all the way through but so worth the wait!
i assume our girls basketball that's headed to compete at the state level will think so as well :) this recipe is a keeper!

Rich and delicious. I followed the recipe as written and they turned out fantastic. Too bad the company I was expecting didn't come and get to experience these. My husband keeps sneaking out to the kitchen to get another "bite." This will be my new go to brownie recipe. Thank you Alice for a terrific recipe.

I've made these brownies twice in the last week, and they are amazing. I used a mix of nuts (walnut, hazelnut and Brazil nut) that I've been struggling to get rid of.

Baked mine in 9x9 metal pan without parchment at 325 and pulled at 22 minutes. Left them to cool completely. They set fine.

I made these today and they were not baled through enough at 325 for 25 minutes. DId anyone raise the temperature to 350?
5 months ago Transcendancing
I love this recipe! I love how it's so pantry friendly! So chocolatey and easy, utterly a win for me. I will say I reduced the sugar total by 1/4 cup, and I used a combination of brown and white sugar - I think that worked really well. They were more chocolatey than sweet which is my kind of brownie. All about the chocolate and a little bit sweet.
5 months ago java&foam
I have made these three times now, but today was the first time I made them with dutch cocoa (Valrhona), the previous two times being natural cocoa powder (the Scharffen Berger natural cocoa she recommends in her books). Natural cocoa powder wins here hands down...with a flavor profile so different you'd think you were using a different recipe. It is worth picking up just for these brownies alone.

A friend of mine made these and they were delicious. I have tried twice to make this recipe and they just don't set up. They are liquid after baking.

Rachel I find that I have to bake them significantly longer than the recipe says. Usually at least another 10 minutes. But then, they're perfect.
9 months ago Marilou
Did anyone else have a problem with the brownies not rising? They were surprisingly thin, close to a quarter of an inch... the recipe is very easy and the taste is ncie and fudgey, but I would prefer a bit more height.
10 months ago Beth
expecting a smooth batter from the butter, cocoa & sugar, I added about 1/3 cup of olive oil to relax the clumps, and the end result was DELICIOUS.
11 months ago Emma Yeatts
I added a 1/4 teaspoon almond extract and then sprinkled sliced almonds on top before baking--divine!
12 months ago Kris
These brownies are excellent. The recipe was also very easy to make.
I turned up the heat on the double boiler initially and then reduced it after I added the butter-cocoa-sugar mixture. It was a little grainy but what we need to go for is no lumps in the mixture. It will become shiny and smooth after the eggs are added.
I made a few changes. I had only 3/4 cup of cocoa in my pantry. So I did not add the extra 2 tablespoons. I used 1/2 brown sugar + 3/4 cup white sugar. I also added orange zest from 2 small tangerines. The flavor was just right.
My husband and neighbors loved the brownies. I think they are perfect for gifting.

28 said both girls died of asphyxia due to ante mortem hanging. There was post mortem staining on lower part of body, perineal findings suggestive of rape.
Multiple vaginal tears, vaginal discharge and bluish colouring in the perineal areas were found in the elder cousin. The younger girl had a blood clot in the vaginal area, and clots and abrasions around the hymen.
On June 7, Uttar Pradesh DGP A L Banerjee said it was possible that one of the girls had not been raped, and that the killings might have been triggered by a property dispute. CBI carried out polygraph tests on the accused on June 26, and on the fathers of the two victims, an uncle and an eyewitness, on July 7.
In late July, the CBI set up a medical board comprising three AIIMS doctors headed by Dr Adarsh Kumar. On July 17, the agency announced it intended to exhume the bodies for another autopsy. But attempts at exhumation were suspended on July 20 due to flooding in the Ganga.

Get in touch with what Skora calls "real running" in the Men's Core Running Shoe. You may refer to it as "barefoot" or "minimalist" but Skora simply designs shoes around the way our feet are made, and how we were meant to run. And despite the long list of features below, the Core concept is really quite simple―a luxurious leather upper and a low-profile sole wrapped around a natural last. As straightforward as it may seem, a lot of thought went into the design of the Core so that you can run as naturally and efficiently as possible.
- RealFit last follows the contours of your foot, featuring a wide forefoot that lets your toes spread, a natural arch shape, and curved bottom edges
- Pittards Armor-Tan goatskin leather upper stands up to sweat, water, and abrasion while offering a glove-like fit and feel that gets better over time
- No-sew upper construction bonds the upper materials and overlays without stitching, enhancing durability a reducing seams that can chafe or let in water
- Perforated Pittards WR100X sheepskin leather lining at the collar and heel remains supple, drying without cracking
- Agion silver-ion antimicrobial treatment of the mesh lining and insole keeps odors to a minimum, even if you run without socks
- No-tongue design with asymmetric lacing offers a close fit free of pressure points
- Zero-drop construction enables a natural forefoot-striking running style
- 8mm heel/forefoot stack height plus 3mm-thick anatomical insole offer plenty of cushioning and protection
- IBR (Injected Blown Rubber) outsole offers better abrasion resistance, grip and compression-resistance than injected EVA, along with lower density and weight than rubber
- Rubber toe pad and metatarsal pad underfoot offer extra durability in these frequent-impact areas
- Reflective details throughout ensure that you're seen out on the roadways

Minimalist shoe from PNW
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Skora rocks. I have had these shoes for two months and I use them for everyday wearing, working out, hiking, soccer on astor turf, list goes on... I removed the insole to go with the more minimal feel. They defiantly are going to stand up to a lot of wear too. Really nice wide toebox, and asymmetrical lacing is perfect too. The main thing that makes these shoes different from other minimalist ones is the goats leather. I'm not sure how it works but they seem to be both warm and breathable. I don't wear socks, (if you want to, get toe-socks) and they never seem to get clammy/ sweaty. Very Durable, can't state that enough.

WBC boxer Robert Guerrero arrested trying to take gun on plane
WBC Welterweight champion Robert Guerrero was arrested Thursday at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, as he tried to take a gun onto his flight, the LA Times reports.
Police say Guerrero attempted to check baggage that included an unloaded .40-caliber handgun, along with three unloaded magazines. Though the gun was registered in California, it's illegal to carry a weapon in New York, if it's not licensed in the state.
Queens District Attorney Richard Brown hammered that point home in a statement, saying, "I hope that Mr. Guerrero fights better than he thinks." Brown continues, "For anyone who hasn't gotten the message, let me be crystal clear: You cannot bring an unlicensed weapon -- loaded or unloaded -- into this county or this city. And if you do, you will be arrested and face felony charges."
Guerero was arraigned Thursday, with his next court appearance is set for May 14. He was in town promoting a May 4 fight with the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr.
