The Tao of Saigon Horn:Part Two
Filed Under: Health & Science, Opinion | Posted: 12/31/2012 at 2:38PM
Comments | Region: Australia
But Ellis says it is "not the use of animal parts per se that is the problem – it is the slaughter of animals for what might be specious applications, or worse, the slaughter of critically endangered species".
The solution he offers is: "Even those who have used animal parts for thousands of years – should recognize that the animals that provide these pharmaceuticals, whether useful or not, are becoming extinct."
So to protect white rhinos, black rhinos, Javan rhinos and Indian rhinos the 'fingernail campaign' becomes irrelevant.
He also says, "It is critically important to develop substitutes for animal substances." And he gives several examples of where this is happening already.
What might also be useful to slow demand is to question the Chinese belief in priorism and look at Sigerist's suggestion back in 1949 of making other medicines such as science offers more universally accessible.
A 19th Century expert on China , Franke said on priorism: "It is dangerous to move the ideals of a people into a great past for it interferes with man's normal urge to expect and to work for improvement in the future."
As TCM is based on philosophy then the promise of longevity attained by living according to the Tao could also have a positive impact.
Considering rhino horn is toted as a hangover cure and a status symbol, the Nei Ching describes the Tao:
"In ancient times those people who understood the Tao [The way of self cultivation] patterned themselves on the Yin and Yang [the two principles in nature] and they lived in harmony with the arts of divination…
"There was temperance in eating and drinking. Their hours of rising and retiring were regular and not disorderly and wild, by these means the ancients kept their bodies united with their souls…
"They felt happy under any condition. To them it did not matter whether a man held a high or low position in life…"
Conservation groups have switched away from the "fingernail campaign" and aim to reduce demand with a three pronged campaign to raise awareness of the inhumanity of the trade and the fragility of the species, the need for coordinated international law making and enforcement and the meaninglessness and indulgent nature of rhino horn use.
The UNTV and CITES premier of their film "Rhinos under Threat" in June 2012, graphically covers the inhumanity and fragile beauty of the South African rhinos that are the victims.
TRAFFIC put out the The South Africa—Viet Nam Rhino Horn Trade Nexus: A deadly combination of institutional lapses, corrupt wildlife industry professionals and Asian crime syndicates. It identifies Vietnam as the main market.
The year just gone has been big on making pledges against wildtrade.
TRAFFIC also wants environmental courts to be established by ASEAN nations including to bolster environmental jurisprudence.
The WWF anti-wildlife trafficking arm pushed for the new courts at a ASEAN 2nd Roundtable on Environmental Law and Enforcement in Malaysia in early December. http://www.traffic.org/home/2012/12/14/judges-to-get-tough-on-wildlife-traffickers-in-south-east-as.html.
Tougher customs measures which are described here http://www.traffic.org/home/2012/12/13/wco-assesses-impact-of-project-gapin.html and new Memorandums of Understanding between South Africa and Vietnam which are described in this TRAFFIC article http://www.traffic.org/home/2012/12/10/new-agreement-between-south-africa-and-viet-nam-a-turning-po.html will add give a sharper edge to policing measures acting as a deterrent and reducing demand.
Statements by APEC, the US Secretary of state, Hillary Clinton and discussions at the level of the UN have put wildtrade and rhino horn in the global spotlight.
Conservation groups have steered away from naming authentic TCM practice as the main source of demand for the horn.
TRAFFIC instead says that the exotic animal part is being mainly used as an expensive middle class indulgence.
"The surge in rhino horn demand from Viet Nam has nothing to do with meeting traditional medicine needs, it's to supply a recreational drug to party goers or to con dying cancer patients out of their cash for a miracle rhino horn cure that will never happen," said Tom Milliken, TRAFFIC rhino expert, and a co-author of the new report.
The report says: "Ultimately the only long-term solution to stamping out rhino poaching in Africa and Asia lies in curbing demand for horn.
"Four main user groups have been identified in Viet Nam: the principal one being those who believe in rhino horn's detoxification properties, especially following excessive intake of alcohol, rich food and "the good life". Affluent users routinely grind up rhino horn and mix the powder with water or alcohol as a hangover-cure and general health tonic.
"Horn is also used as a supposed cancer cure by terminally ill patients, who are sometimes deliberately targeted by rhino horn "touts" as part of a cynical marketing ploy to increase the profitability of the illicit trade.
While Milliken is right that party goers on rhino horn are not living according to the precepts of TCM and the Tao, there is still some tenuous connection to TCM as the party goers are surely acting according to some twisted version of the Tao to prevent illness.

Forest Service investigating unauthorized movie making along Chattooga
LONG CREEK - The U.S. Forest Service is investigating whether a movie sequence was filmed on the Chattooga River without the proper permits.
The movie is "Killing Season," starring Robert DeNiro and John Travolta. Some scenes were shot last month in Rabun County and along the Chattooga.
Judy Toppins, public affairs officer for the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests in Gainesville, Ga., confirmed Thursday that an investigation was being done.
Toppins said the film's producers had applied for the proper permit, but the permitting process requires a public comment period. The comment period ended only on Feb. 24, but the movie company informed the Forest Service that the filming had already been done.
Toppins said she could not comment on the investigation or the possible consequences because the investigation was still active.
The producers, Millenium Films and Corsan Pictures in Los Angeles, did not return calls and emails from the Independent Mail on Thursday.
According to Forest Service officials, the scene for which the permit was sought was to be shot at the Bull Sluice rapid on the Chattooga, and called for a stuntman representing one of the actors to fall into the river and be swept downstream.
The movie cast DeNiro as a military veteran living in a remote mountain cabin. The veteran is visited by a European, Travolta's character, who turns out to be a former Serbian soldier bent on revenge.
Most filming in Rabun County took place in the Tallulah Gorge State Park and Black Rock Mountain State Park.
The film's director, Mark Steven Johnson, said in an interview with movie industry trade media that he chose the Rabun County area for the effect he wanted after seeing the 1972 film "Deliverance" starring Burt Reynolds, Jon Voight, Ned Beatty and Ronnie Cox.

Hey guys, i was wondering, is their any new submissions or techniques made?
The only recent one I heard of was the wicked triangle.
Edit: Variations are good to, like if you know a new arm bar shout it out.

Very few techniques are truly new. A lot of them have new names and get more attention, but like the old phrase goes "there's nothing new under the sun."
The only technique I can think of that might be considered truly new would be the gogoplata, as supposedly invented by Nino Schembri. But that is at least 10 years old I believe. Even things like Eddie Bravo's twister have been around for years in catch wrestling.

Well, i mean their is new techniques, like i said, the wicked triangle.Originally Posted by Noob
Is the fist in the throat one new?
I understand. What I am saying is that there are next to no techniques that are truly new. No matter what name they have. Everyone has two arms, two legs, and one torso. There are only so many possibilities.Originally Posted by BJJ Boy
And I would be willing to bet that the 'wicked triangle' is not new. In fact, I would put money on it. There is no guarantee that someone somewhere hasn't used it before. Many moves are created by different people at different times, indepenent of each other.
Lol, and no, the fist in the throat one is not new.

Oh, yea i see what your saying, i forgot to mention variations are good to.
Popular opinion usually says: Rare = New (see the Gogo or Twister). By this formula your best bet to find "new" submissions is to look up grappling arts that are less common such as catch wrestling.
The day someone finds out a way to do a Boston Crab in MMA I bet a lot of people will call it a new sub Me and my buddies still just call it "The Ultimate Pwn" though

also who almost get's tapped by a cross colar choke when they have top mount. ALl you have to do is look up at the ceiling and break the grips, or get one hand inbetween the grips and put it behind your head.... It's not even a hard move to defend when someone has mount on you.
Also, you would think you wern't fighting opponents who are "allot bigger" then you since you are fighting in a sport with weight classes.
Good stuff lol

Local fishing club endows scholarship for CFCC Marine Technology students
Board members of the Got-Em-On Live Bait Club recently presented the Cape Fear Community College Foundation with a $5,000 donation to begin funding an endowed scholarship for Marine Technology students at CFCC. The donation was funded by proceeds from the club's 15th annual golf tournament held in December at the Echo Farms Golf Club.
Once fully funded, the Got-Em-On Live Bait Club Endowed Scholarship will provide financial support to marine technology students at CFCC, with preference given to graduates of the South Brunswick High School Mose Lewis Aquaculture Facility.
The Got-Em-On Live Bait Club was formed in 1979 by a small group of tournament-winning live-bait fishermen. This group of competitive friends would announce their catches with a spirited cry of "Got 'em on!" over their CB radios. The club was incorporated with 17 members in 1981 and today the membership consists of approximately 300 families. The club hosts several annual King Mackerel tournaments, numerous club socials and activities. Got-Em-On is also a philanthropic non-profit organization and has supported numerous charitable and educational organizations in the region. Previously, the club has donated proceeds from its annual golf tournament to a UNCW graduate fellowship in marine biology, which has been fully funded with over $70,000.
The Cape Fear Community College Foundation exists solely to support the students, instructors, programs and mission of the College. The Foundation secures and manages gifts and grants, including cash contributions, estate gifts, securities, donated services, and equipment and supplies for educational purposes. For more information about CFCC, or about scholarship opportunities, please contact the Cape Fear Community College Foundation at (910) 362-7207 or visit www.cfcc.edu/foundation.

After days of rain, ground crews worked to get Wednesday night's Vermont Mountaineers game ready.
Something that not only the players wanted to see, but some young fans as well.
Before the game started, Kyle and Chase Jeter took to the mound and threw out the first pitch.
The two got the honor of doing so because the team honored their great-great grandfather, Vermont native, President Calvin Coolidge.
"I know that my great-great grandfather threw a lot these while being president and it's good to follow in his footsteps," said Chase Jeter.
"It's nice to follow in his footsteps," said Kyle Jeter.
The 30th US president and his wife Grace loved the sport.
Earlier this year, a new baseball exhibit opened at Coolidge's homestead in Plymouth Notch.
It features memorabilia the Coolidge's collected.
An exhibit his great-great grand kids can't wait to see.
"I haven't seen it yet, but I think that it will be neat to see," said Chase Jeter.
Although Wednesday night was all about baseball, Coolidge's young relatives are proud of what he accomplished.
"It's amazing to think that one person can change so many people's lives as president," said Chase Jeter.
As for keeping America's pastime in the Coolidge family.
The Jeter's say there's no plans to let tradition that go.
"It's clear that my brother and I have embraced that love," said Kyle Jeter.
That exhibit at Coolidge's homestead in Plymouth Notch will be on display until October.

Rams take Heisman winner Bradford with No. 1 pick
Bulger, Null and Kyle Boller, who signed with the Raiders, combined for 12 touchdown passes last year. The Rams trailed the rest of the NFL by scoring just 10.9 points per game, and depended heavily on Pro Bowl running back Steven Jackson.
Bradford followed the Lions' Matthew Stafford as the second straight quarterback taken with the first overall pick. He's the ninth Heisman winner to be selected No. 1, and first since the Cincinnati Bengals took USC quarterback Carson Palmer in 2003.
The Rams previously chose offensive tackle Jason Smith and defensive end Chris Long with the second overall picks in 2009 and '08.
Devaney and Spagnuolo said the draft was business as usual for the Rams even though they're for sale. Billionaire Stan Kroenke of Columbia, Mo., the minority owner, is seeking to purchase the remaining 60 percent of the team and has said he wants to keep the franchise in St. Louis.
Illinois businessman Shahid Khad is also bidding for the 60 percent stake in the Rams. Kroenke exercised matching rights, although his ownership of the NBA's Denver Nuggets and NHL's Colorado Avalanche is at odds with the NFL's prohibition of cross ownership.

You're Going To Make Me Stick Up For The Wii U, Aren't You?
Setting out to write for a gaming site, everyone's got subjects they'd rather not deal with. I've got a friend who handles this conundrum by simply not writing anything at all, but I choose to just steer clear of subjects that may ruffle some feathers.
However, it seems the time has come for me to try and articulate some thoughts about the Wii U. I don't think I'm about to shock anyone, but there seems to be a staggering amount of looking at dots, with few people wanting to actually connect them.
I want to make my stance clear upfront: I don't think you should ever bet against Nintendo. Their systems are reliable, and while their first-party titles may not be to everyone's liking, it's hard to argue that they aren't technically outstanding. That said, what in the bloody hell is Nintendo actually doing with the Wii U?
Firstly, I think the price warrants another look. But to do that, we'll have to take a peek over the Wii U's shoulder and look at the 3DS.
Nintendo's price drop on the 3DS occurred in August 2011, right in time for the holidays. While I don't think anyone would rule out a price cut for the Wii U, it is currently only May, and there will be no price drop anytime soon.
Even though some people (read: Americans) have still been slower to latch onto the 3DS, Nintendo still has not gone on the defensive about the system. The last three months have seen the release of the system's most anticipated titles: Luigi's Mansion 2, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Etrian Odyseey IV, for example. And many people were quick to say, "Those titles are great, but what do they have past that? Nothing!"
But again, Nintendo was still not on the defensive. Why? We found out a couple of weeks ago at a Nintendo Direct. They knew they were sitting on the Western release of Bravely Default: Flying Fairy, and a sequel to A Link to the Past. For the 3DS, it seems that Nintendo always has something tucked in their back pocket.
Turning our attention back to the Wii U, Nintendo seems wholly unconcerned with its current state. Similar to the 3DS, maybe Nintendo just knows it's sitting on something amazing that we haven't even seen yet. Nintendo is being a little cagey with sales expectations, which has certainly pleased the nay-sayers, but its stance on the console (for example, the refusal to adjust the price) indicates that the interest is in the long tail on the Wii U. It really looks like Nintendo is just taking their time with it, casually tossing things into the mix as they go to see if they stick.
"Let's try, oh, I don't know… Famicom's turning 30, right? Let's try making some games thirty cents just to see if we can get people online."
"Who wants to see if people will buy Super Mario World on this thing!?"
"Wouldn't people crap their jammies if this is where we finally released Mother 2!!?"
Looking at things from the skeptical side, sure, these are just bones we're being tossed while we wait for proper Wii U games (if there are any hahaha), but they're bones that long-time Nintendo fans are guaranteed to love. It simply doesn't matter if you're a Nintendo fan or not–there's only going to be one place where you can buy Super Mario Bros. 2 and Earthbound.
And what about when the other new consoles launch? Could the Wii U face obsolescence? Nope, not in the least. While different people want different things out of their consoles, Nintendo has got a slight edge to work with.
Those simply looking for a powerhouse gaming machine are likely to lean towards the PlayStation 4. However, the Wii U could easily find its place for those looking for the all-in-one streaming media machine.
The Wii U will have been available for roughly a year by the time other "next-gen" consoles see the light of day, which gives Nintendo an edge in terms of mind share. If Microsoft's next console really does force users to have a Kinect installed (or is always-online), families could choose the Wii U simply due to ease of use. It's extraordinarily easy to set up (seriously, you haven't experienced technological advancement until you've set up the Wii U as a TV remote), and has all the standards in one place–including your favourite television shows.
Nintendo's newest entry into the console war isn't a runaway hit. But Nintendo seems to be looking at the long term investment here, and both the recent updates and upcoming Virtual Console titles show Nintendo is willing to listen to what players want. And more importantly, it shows they're willing to deliver.

press release
Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa knew of the presence in South Africa of Muammar Gaddafi's former chief of staff, Bashir Saleh, as early as February this year, a reply to a DA parliamentary question has revealed. This contradicts the statement made in Parliament by President Zuma last week when he said that South Africa was not able to monitor or prevent the movement of Mr Saleh.
The recent spotlight on Libyan funds and assets allegedly hidden in South Africa has now shed light on what may be a cover-up of possible financial ties between government, the ANC and the former Libyan dictator.
Mr Saleh, also known as Bashir al Shrkawi, is on Interpol's wanted list and is reported to have acted as Mr Gaddafi's personal financial advisor while serving as his chief of staff. He has reportedly been allowed to travel in and out of South Africa to attend the ANC's centenary dinner in Mangaung and the BRICS summit in Durban.
I will today be submitting an application to South Africa's Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) in terms of the Promotion of Access to Information Act (PAIA) requesting the DA gets sight of all documents distributed to the United Nations relating to Libyan financial interests in South Africa, specifically those concerning Gaddafi.
As the South African body responsible for providing financial intelligence for use in the fight against crime, money laundering and terror financing, I trust the FIC will have all relevant information available at their fingertips.
The PAIA application is necessary since Minister Gordhan has denied my request for a full investigation into the Gaddafi billions in South Africa. In that request I had asked Treasury to look into:
The link between the funds, and high ranking ANC officials as reported in the media,
The origin and destination of all relevant funds transferred from Libya to South Africa, and
The total value and timing of all related transfers.
The South African public now have a right to know whether Libyan funds bought Gaddafi and his regime any influence over the governing party and this government.

Born in a Church of Scotland (Presbyterian) manse in Gifford, near Edinburgh, in 1723, John Witherspoon was educated at Haddington Grammar School, entered the University of Edinburgh in 1736, and graduated in Arts (1739) and Divinity (1743). He was ordained and installed in 1745 as a minister of the Church of Scotland parish in Beith, where he remained until 1758, when he was called to the Laigh (Low) Kirk in Paisley. He remained there until 1768 when with his wife and five children he sailed to America to take up residence and a new position in Princeton, New Jersey. From 1768 until his death in 1794, he was president and head professor of the small College of New Jersey (For a full account of Witherspoon's life and work as a college …

"I didn't want the kind of manicured garden that would mean I'd have to come out on weekends and mow the lawn," says Jean-Baptiste Barache of the country home he built, mostly by himself, over a year and a half.
The result: a house that looks like it's just been dropped into a field, casual, with nary a path leading up to it and a front door that can barely be detected on the red-cedar-shingled facade.
Like the barns Barache scampered through as a child, the house divides its length between loftlike open spaces like the living room, which opens onto a small deck perfect for open-air lolling, and stacked-box nooks and crannies.
Cubic bookshelves act as a dividing wall near the kitchen.
On the other side of the bookshelves, a sliding door opens to reveal a hidden bathroom.
In his kitchen built on the cheap, Barache installed appliances donated by a few architectural Good Samaritans. "I don't even remember where the sink is from," he says. Two built-in sliding-door cabinets house the kitchen basics, and the custom-built dining set, a modern riff on the farmers' table and benches, is large enough to welcome family and visitors dropping in for a meal.
In the third-floor bedroom, peekaboo windows offer a glimpse of the surrounding fields.
The second floor houses three lits bretons, boxlike compartments where the curtains can be drawn to close sleepers off from the world. Inside, each has a built-in shelf for personal belongings and a favorite read.
A series of horizontal window panes on the rear facade serves as vanes for ventilation and adds a craftsmanlike design come nightfall, when the house is lit up by the flicker of candlelight and gas lamps.
The exposed-wood motif continues inside, where plywood walls, as well as Barache and his guests, keep things warm.
The front door dissolves into the facade.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 9/9/12
BOSTON -- In his previous 31 major league games, Toronto Blue Jays rookie outfielder Anthony Gose had a total of two RBI. He matched that total in the second inning Saturday with a two-run single, then hit a three-run shot in the ninth inning for his first career homer, leading the Blue Jays to a 9-2 rout of the Boston Red Sox. Toronto has taken the first two games of the weekend series. Gose finished 2-for-4 with two runs and a stolen base. "You look at the tangible adjustments Anthony Gose has made at the plate," Toronto manager John Farrell said. "They're real, and he looks really good in the box. "You look at the last couple of games. His contact point has been good at the front edge of the plate. We'll take the line-drive approach that he gives us." The Blue Jays beat up on Daisuke Matsuzaka, knocking the Boston right-hander out after just 1 1/3 innings. Toronto sent eight batters to the plate in the second inning, with five scoring. Yunel Escobar led off the in...

There might be no Apple Inc., ads in Super Bowl XLVII this year, But Apple is clever enough to silently launch its new feature through a Superbowl ad without spending any bucks for it and CNET is keen enough to notice it and publicize it.
Now It's possible for iPhone App Developers to get their own Appstore.com vanity URL that can be directly linked to their App listed in the Appstore. These short links which are easy to read and easy to remember can be used in ads, TV spots, Websites and other such marketing campaigns.
This new feature made its first public appearance Star Trek's Superbowl Ad when the last scene with infos displayed Appstore.com/StarTrekApp.
Apple in its developer documentation says,
You can also create easy-to-read links to your app using App Store Short Links, which use the AppStore.com base URL plus a specific form of your app or company name. This provides a simple way for users to find your apps on the App Store directly from your website or marketing campaigns. These short links are ideal for use in offline communications materials like print ads, TV spots, app trailers, radio ads and billboards.
Extending this new feature, Apple makes the Appstore.com vanity url customizable for iOS and Mac Apps separately so that multiplatform iDevs dont need to worry.

Spain secured their place at next year's FIFA World Cup™ finals after seeing off Estonia in Merida with goals from Cesc Fabregas, Santi Cazorla and Juan Manuel Mata.
With Bosnia-Herzegovina being held by Turkey earlier in the evening, Spain knew a victory over Estonia would be enough to guarantee themselves top spot in Group 5. And the European champions made no mistake as they continued their 100 per cent record in qualifying with an eighth win in eight games.
Unlike Saturday's impressive trouncing of Belgium, it was more of a workmanlike display from Spain tonight and although Fabregas gave the hosts a 33rd-minute lead, Vicente del Bosque's men had to wait until the final ten minutes to wrap up the game thanks to efforts from substitutes Cazorla and Mata.
The final scoreline may have been comfortable enough, but Spain took a while to get going and might easily have found themselves trailing inside the opening 20 minutes as Estonia created some problems for their hosts.
Tarmo Kink had the best chance in the 17th minute but was unable to keep his header down after Konstantin Vassiljev's superb cross from the left had cleared Carlos Marchena and found Estonia's number nine unmarked on the edge of the six-yard box.
Soon after that Sergei Zenjov put another opportunity wide at the near post after Estonia had again done well out wide. Those were a couple of uncomfortable moments for Spain, but the hosts awoke from their slumber and were soon creating chances of their own.
Strike duo David Villa and Fernando Torres both fired over from decent openings, before the latter was denied by Sergei Pareiko after some Xavi magic had put the Liverpool hitman through on goal. Torres then saw another effort deflected behind for a corner before Fabregas broke the deadlock just after the half-hour mark.
Fabregas, who was brought into the starting XI by Del Bosque for tonight's match, did well to steal possession deep in Estonia territory and a quick one-two with David Silva left the Arsenal man with only Pareiko to beat, and he did so with aplomb.
That was no more than Spain deserved after moving up through the gears, and it gave them a 1-0 cushion at the break - the same as against Belgium on Saturday.
However, unlike that match in La Coruna where Spain blitzed the Belgians with two goals in five minutes after the break en route to a 5-0 win, Del Bosque's men had to wait until the 81st minute to put more daylight between themselves and Estonia tonight.
Fabregas was also involved in that goal, scooping a pass into the area where Cazorla bundled his way through the challenge of Estonia captain Raio Piiroja before firing a right-footed shot past Pareiko.
That goal ended Spanish fears of a potentially costly late equaliser by Estonia, and Mata wrapped up the win with his side's third goal in stoppage-time.
Cazorla's deep cross picked out Mata at the far post and the Valencia winger showed good control and skill to create a shooting chance for himself before drilling a low effort past Pareiko to complete the triumph.

This particular package offers the most treatment for the least amount of money; I can treat three sets of hunting clothes with one pump bottle (hat, socks, pants, shirt) although the package claims four sets. I hang my clothes on an outdoor clothesline on a still day and spray the product on, paying particular attention to cuffs, waistband, and the neckband areas. Let them dry for 3-4 hours. I have found dead ticks on my socks, in my waist band, and dead red-bugs all over my pants - even had one dead spider sitting on my hat bill while turkey hunting one spring. I have found that the clothing will still effectively kill ticks after three washings and three weeks - it just takes a little longer (five minutes as compared to 1 minute when freshly treated). October 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tennessee Jack Bug off... Definitely keeps the bugs under control. A must have if you are in TICK country. Follow the directions (Do NOT spray on skin), spray your clothes, boots, etc. the night before you go into the woods, let them dry before wearing. Seems to last through several washings (as claimed). No residual smell (important for hunters). October 17, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by MB Awesome After a tick bite in spring and getting Lyme, I have tried this product with awesome results. Being in the woods often and previously having ticks on my clothing and me, I have not had one tick since I started using this product. I also went bear hunting in Maine. I had no issues with mosquito's while on stand and as advertised, no odor which I saw bear, and we all know how sensitive their smelling is. Another advantage is how long the product works after it is put on your clothing. VERY HIGHLY RECCOMENDED PRODUCT!!!! September 15, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Traveler Sawyer Permethrin Insect Repellant I don't use this on clothing, although I know that some do. It is my opinion that it should not be in contact with the skin, which if sprayed on clothing and even allowed to dry, it can produce skin irritation especially in places that are more restrictive (waistband, etc.). I use it as a barrier along a side door to keep insects from getting into the house. When they crawl across it they die. I have used it up in the Peruvian rainforest/jungle to keep insects out of the sleeping areas in the same way. It really works, but people need to use it carefully like any other insecticide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Stubby Keeps the ticks off when hunting! In my tick infested area I won't go in the woods unless my clothes are treated with this. September 16, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by sam No bugs no ticks Great product. Used it in africa and in deep woods if Culpepper and had no ticks when we got home September 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bobo No Bite This is the best product I've encountered that actually keeps me tick free during the year. It does what it claims. September 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by RainmanPMI No more bugs I have heard about this product from some of my fellow hunters, so I decided to give it a try. Opening day of archery season was a blast. No mosquitoes even came near, cept for one lone scout who did not hang around long. After 3 washes, it is still going strong. Did not even need the Thermocell this season. October 16, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by tombo Best tick product on market. This is a must have for early season hunting. Would recommend this for everyone. November 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by S.ward Works great This stuff works great. Use per the instructions and say good bye to ticks. September 23, 2014

Swim Clinic
Local swim coach and triathlete Brittany Oliver, in conjunction with Rincon Triathlon Club has offered to host a free swim clinic on Saturday morning at 8am at the Ventura Pier. Brittany will lead a n on-shore clinic on open water swimming (breathing, spotting, etc) and will then have the group get into the water for an open water swim. Wetsuits are recommended. Please note this is not a race and not an official part of the Ventura Marathon & Beach Party although we highly recommend it. Even if you dont want to get in the water the on-shore clinic will be very beneficial for newbies.

Autonomy, a leading enterprise infrastructure company has a new technology that can change the way we look at and interact with physical objects. Called Aurasma, it works with smart phone and tablets to, in real time, turn static images or even objects into videos, games and interactive experiences.
Imagine, for example, a photograph on the front page of a newspaper. You point your phone at the photo and suddenly you see it turn into a video. It still appears in the same spot in the paper only now there is motion and sound. It could also work with a physical object like a building, a car or a new toaster. Point your phone or tablet towards the object and perhaps you'll see a video about it or, in the case of a product, a review or a segment about similar products.
I guess soon we'll find the newspapers from Harry Potter nothing but old school magic.

The Electra laser system is currently being developed at the Naval Research Laboratory to serve as a test bed for laser driver technologies needed for an inertial fusion energy power plant. The main amplifier has produced 730 J of laser light operating in an oscillator mode. These results as well as advancement of the laser physics, electron beam deposition, and the pulse power technologies give us projections of >7% wall plug efficiency for an IFE system. The Electra main amplifier in oscillator configuration has run continuously at 1 Hz, 2.5 Hz, and 5 Hz for multi-thousand shot runs.This paper will discuss recent results of the Electra program at the Naval Research Laboratory including integrating the Electra main amplifier into a complete laser amplifier system. Issues addressed will include development paths for the cathode, window coating, and foil longevity to attain the durability required for a fusion power plant.

Guitar Hero facing legal challenge
There could soon be a strum off between two of the biggest players in the music world.
Not we're not talking record labels - but - on one side - the musical gamers' favourite, Guitar Hero, and on the other, legendary guitar maker Gibson.
The two companies have been collaborating for years, with the game developer even modelling its Guitar Hero controllers on Gibson models, but now a patent wrangle is on the cards.
Gibson says the game violates a 1999 patent for technology to "simulate a musical performance".
But Activision has countered this and asked the US District Court for Central California to declare Gibson's patent invalid and also to stop it from seeking any damages. The case continues...

When you want a heavy object moved, call in the Swarm-bots. These robots, developed by Marco Dorigo's team at the Free University of Brussels (ULB) in Belgium come equipped with a camera on a rotating turret and a gripper. Their simple programming makes the blue-LED covered robots grab onto objects lit up in red, and change colour to match. Once each robot sees only other red bots indicating they have all teamed up, they begin hauling the load.
The Pentagon wants to "vaccinate" buildings against chemical or biological weapons. To test ways of fending off attacks the US Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency has opened the "Immune Building" at Fort Leonard Wood in Waynesville, Missouri. One idea is to use positive air pressure within the building to expel airborne agents.

DHHS takes steps to eliminate backlog of food stamp requests (VIDEO)
Julie Fertig
News 14
September 24, 2013
Raleigh, N.C. - New steps are being taken to get food stamps to North Carolinians in need. In July, the Department of Health and Human Services updated the new "North Carolina Families Accessing Services through Technology," known as the NC Fast software system. It serves as a one-stop shop to deliver social services and Medicaid benefits for more than one million North Carolinians in need.
Since then county-level division of social services offices across the state have experienced a back log in processing the benefits applications and re-certifications.
Now DHHS is taking proactive steps to help solve the issue and get those in need assistance at a faster rate. This week, DHHS is training a team to become experts at using the software for NC FAST. DHHS asked Division of Social Services offices in each county in the state to send outstanding food stamp assistant cases to Raleigh, where this team will process them.
"While you're there in the county trying to prevent them from becoming overdue, then we'll be here in Raleigh working day and night working to get those cases caught up," said Wayne Black, DHHS Division of Social Services director.
In the past week, the team at DHHS has completed more than 3,000 re-certification cases.
"No matter how tired you are at the end of the day, what makes you feel good is that you're able to go ahead and get those re-certifications done and feed these families on time," said Bill Orlando, DHHS staff development specialist.
Once the county-level cases are complete, more than 160 state workers will be sent to offices in all 100 counties by early October.
"[There will be] at least one new state employee who will be in their county, working to assist them in training, working to assist them in working cases," said Black.
This week DHHS is also offering more in-depth training sessions for county-level DSS workers.

Owl City Kicks Off 2013 North American Tour with Maroon 5 and Neon Trees in Columbus, 2/13
Owl City announces a 2013 arena tour with Maroon 5 and Neon Trees. The two month long trek kicks-off on February 13th in Columbus, OH at Schottenstein Center and will wrap on April 6th at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL, hitting several notable venues along the way including Los Angeles' Staples Center and New York City's Madison Square Garden. The news of the 2013 tour comes as Owl City continues his The Midsummer Station World Tour overseas in Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
Owl City is fresh off the August 21st release of The Midsummer Station, his latest full-length, out now via Republic Records. He first hit the road in July for a short sold-out promo tour of North America leading up to the new album's release. During this time, the album's lead single, "Good Time" (featuring a duet with Carly Rae Jepsen), became a staple at the top of the radio and sales charts. Since then, "Good Time" has been certified platinum and continues to hold strong in the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, as well as Top 5 at Top 40 and Top 10 at Hot AC. The week The Midsummer Station came out, Owl City was joined by Carly Rae Jepsen for a series of National TV performances of the single including appearances on America's Got Talent, Today Show, Arthur Ashe Kids Day, Conan, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. He hit the road on September 5th in Nashville for the first leg of The Midsummer Station World Tour, which took the band through North America before heading over to Europe to kick off the next leg with a show in Paris on October 18th. Along the way, Owl City made a stop in NYC where the band performed a stripped down version of "Good Time" on Live with Kelly & Michael.
With the announcement of the 2013 arena tour also comes news of the follow-up single to "Good Time." "Shooting Star" will usher the way for the next North American tour, and is going to radio in early 2013. There's a new video in the works to coincide with the new single and before closing out 2012 – you can catch Owl City at several holiday radio shows including the KISS-FM Jingle Ball in LA on December 3rd. Presale for all shows with Maroon 5 will take place this week, and general on-sale for all shows is this Saturday, October 27th with the exception of Dallas and Jacksonville, which will be up for sale on November 2nd. See below for all confirmed dates.
