Establishing the sequential progression of multiple allergic diagnoses in a UK birth cohort using the General Practice Research Database
Aziz Sheikh, Allergy & Respiratory Research Group, Centre of Population Health Sciences, The University of Edinburgh, 20 West Richmond Street, Edinburgh EH8 9DX, UK.
E-mail: email@example.com
Background There is considerable international interest in understanding the sequential progression of multiple allergic conditions (also sometimes known as 'the allergic march').
Objectives To study the sequential progression of multiple allergic conditions in a national birth cohort throughout childhood.
Methods We constructed a birth cohort of 43 477 children born in 1990 and registered in UK general practices within a year of birth, using the national General Practice Research Database. Of these, 24 112 with complete follow-up until the age of 18 years were studied in order to understand disease progression and to estimate the absolute and relative risks of developing second and third allergic diagnoses following an index allergic condition.
Results 52.1% of children were diagnosed with at least one condition at some point in childhood. We were able to describe 15 different disease trajectories. Eczema was the most likely index condition with 60.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 59.8–61.6] of allergy sufferers being diagnosed with this condition first. For those with a diagnosis of eczema, the relative risks of being diagnosed with asthma followed by rhinitis and rhinitis followed by asthma were 1.59 (95% CI: 1.32–1.91; P<0.0001) and 0.54 (95% CI: 0.43–0.68; P<0.0001), respectively. For those diagnosed with asthma first, the relative risks of being diagnosed with eczema followed by rhinitis and rhinitis followed by eczema were 1.27 (95% CI: 0.96–1.68; P=0.095) and 0.27 (95% CI: 0.20–0.36; P<0.0001), respectively. For those diagnosed with rhinitis first, the relative risks of being diagnosed with eczema followed by asthma and asthma followed by eczema were 0.64 (95% CI: 0.42–0.95; P=0.025) and 0.47 (95% CI: 0.32–0.67; P<0.0001), respectively.
Conclusions Among children diagnosed with multiple allergic diseases there is likely to be a number of variants of 'the allergic march'. Of these, the diagnosis of eczema followed by asthma, which is in turn followed by rhinitis, is the most common trajectory. Surprisingly, some diagnoses indicate a possible strong protective effect of manifesting further likely allergic diagnoses.

On this 88th birthday of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, I became a little nostalgic. And I started to think... Why does Pope Benedict XVI matter so much to me? I hope you'll allow me to explain.It was early April, 2005 and the world was in mourning. The long-suffering, deeply afflicted Pope John Paul II had slipped away and we were ushered into a period with which I was unfamiliar as a non-Catholic: The Interregnum. Sede Vacante. The period between popes. The time of St. Peter's vacant seat. I w … [Read more...]

Why That Woman Wept At Confession
I have to be honest. I was jarred when I first heard it. It was on a Tuesday night - a Lenten Reconciliation Service.

Lines were formed around the periphery of the sanctuary. Five priests were working overtime (as if there is a prescribed set of "working hours" in a priest's life anyway) leaning in, comforting, consoling, … [Read more...]

La Riqueza
Brought to us by Tatuaje's Pete Johnson, La Riqueza has a solid core of Nicaraguan filler tobaccos ensconced within the shadowy cloak of this incredibly dark Connecticut Broadleaf. Weighing in at a solid medium body with a light spice through the nose, these black beasts offer smokers a dark, earthy taste chased by sweeter hints of cinnamon and espresso. An incredibly even box-press puts the finishing touches on what can only be called a work of art from the Pete Johnson/Garcia Family tag team.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
GREAT add-on and compatible with FF4 no less.
It's everything i have searched for.
I have used "multirow bookmarks" for a long time untill it is no longer supported by FF4 (unless you have to workarround with scripts and wot not!)
And then i found this great tool that not only add multiple rows of bookmarks like Multirow bookmarks but also has the ability to hide/unhide or customize the size of the bookmarks with or without text ..
I have had no issues as of yet with this addon and its doing exactly wot i expect to do.
REALY RECOMMENDED poeple
So its fair to say this deserves a 5/5 star rating..

|Sieg Helmont
|Basic Info
|Age: 17
|Height: 175 cm
|Class: Knight
|Type: Starter Character
|Does not need to be unlocked to be played.
Class Summary
Specialized in : Tanking and Melee Combat
Pros of Sieg
- Combo Potential
- High HP and Def
- Well-round
Cons of Sieg
- A difficult class to master
- Lack of Long Range Skills
- Long skill cool-down
Background Story
Sieg is a pure-hearted but hot-tempered seventeen-year-old lad. His father experienced many adventures as the leader of a famous mercenary group. Sieg takes a journey to solve a riddle and to see a legendary dragon called "Kseidon;" both of which his father once told him about. Sieg is usually a simple minded and pleasant person, but becomes very dangerous when upset. He's skilled in delivering a shower of blows with two handed swords.
Class Type
A character suitable for "action gamers" who like speedy, continuous attacks, as this is what Sieg specializes in. Also, he's easy to combo with. Sieg can also be considered a "tank," the front-line soldier that keeps enemies concentrated on himself rather than rest of the party.
Stat Growth
|Level 1
|Per Level
For a listing of Sieg's skills, refer to Sieg Skills.
Sieg's skills are classified into 5 groups: Strike, Sword, Charge, Bless, and Ability. Most of Sieg's skills are quick melee or short-ranged attacks. He also possesses several abilities that can be used to avoid damage, giving him excellent abilities to survive close combat. His Bless skills are mostly self-only, although he does have the ability to support his party by drawing the attention of enemies.
All characters in Lunia receieve 1 Skill Point per level, plus an additional Skill Point every 4 levels (4, 8, 12, etc.), up to the level cap of 99.

The total volume of data being processed and stored by businesses is rising exponentially. IDC has estimated that the size of the "digital universe" will increase 29 fold between 2010 and 2020. Data storage technology has undergone a steady increase in capacity, along with a steady decline in the cost per unit to store information. Unfortunately, data storage capacity is not keeping pace with data growth and necessitating greater intelligence in the storage infrastructure. Read more.

Robert M. Brown Publishes TOCQUEVILLE's VIRUS with RoseDog Books
Tocqueville's Virus, a new book by Robert M. Brown, has been released by RoseDog Books.
America's rise to superpower status was fast and violent. The arrest of its global reach and grasp is now equally wild and punishing, and Greg Hamilton is in the eye of that cyclone. In Congress, he represents half a million upstate New York constituents. Greg loves his country, his district's people and their way of life, and his large and loving family, and he yearns to do his job well. But an all-powerful and implacable monster is scrambling his country's ability to lead and stay prosperous.
It is tenaciously tearing at his peoples' sense of community and is mercilessly toying with the ingrained cracks in his family's cohesion and his own professional effectiveness. Greg struggles just to fathom the hideous adversary's shape. It seems both a part of him and far outside him. Yes, piqued reader, Tocqueville's Virus is fiction, and you'll have to decide for yourself how much of it is reality and our stark, early twenty-first-century fate.
Robert M. Brown brings to Tocqueville's Virus the experience of twenty years of Regular Army, commissioned service, and twenty years of university teaching. He has lived for eight years outside the U.S. and has worked at delivering America's Cold War shield and its Southeast Asian nation-building programs. He holds two Bronze Stars for Valor and a Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. With a baccalaureate, a master's, and a doctorate in international and comparative politics and economics, Brown has taught undergraduates and adult graduate students across the eastern U.S. and in Germany, Spain, and England. His extensive writings on American foreign policy include the book America's Way with the WorlD. Brown credits much of his political insight to family and friendship networks opened when he married a Berlin-born German.
Tocqueville's Virus is a 162-page paperback with a retail price of $19.00. The ISBN is 978-1-4349-8400-5. It was published by RoseDog Books of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Issue Summary:
National and Regional Pharmacy Chain Participation in H1N1 Vaccine Campaign in FL
Description of Issue(s):
At the county level, I am approving H1N1 vaccine requests (as my local allocation allows) for pharmacies like Walgreens and CVS/Minute Clinic plus those at grocery chains like Winn Dixie and Publix. They all seem to have a single person at the parent-company level do their ordering for the ship-to-sites in each county (some use one store per county as the ship-to then re-distribute, others have multiple individual ship-to-sites).
Actions taken to address the issue(s):
The pharmacies utilize our locally approved consent form, and return copies of those forms to us (weekly) so that we can track the numbers of individuals vaccinated in our jurisdiction that fall into the various target groups. The individual pharmacies each enter the patient and vaccine information into the state?s FL Shots vaccination tracking system. (www.FLShots.com)
Outcomes that resulted from actions taken:
We do not have a similar arrangement with Target or Wal-Mart because both entities wanted us to have our allocated vaccine shipped to their distribution centers in other states.

For starters, "Deviled" Polenta Yukon Golds.
Rye, Kale & Eggplant Dressing with toasted Pepitas
Fennel, Apple & Herb Salad with toasted Pistachios and Horseradish
Harissa & Maple-Roasted Root Vegetables
Spinach-stuffed Rolled Seitan Steaks
Winter's delights on a plate.
My "White Elephant" gift and my vodka & pineapple
I whipped up adorable meringue mushrooms to garnish the Bûche de Noël.
The Bûche de Noël in the making.
And the finished dessert!
And a gluten free chocolate mousse for the intolerant Max.
Not that I need another reason to eat an all-vegan apple-themed dinner by an aspiring chef, but my birthday is here again. And a Monday night dinner with some dear, old friends is just what I needed to start celebrating. But it was Da'Ves Lee Malone, the sweet and delightfully timid chef of Sprouting Dreams, who was special lady of the evening. We were lucky enough to be part of her very first Pop-up dinner, hosted at Brooklyn's V-Spot. The 4-course meal was all about apples.
Course 1: Mini sweet peppers stuffed with soy sausage and diced Apples along with a carrot bacon-wrapped apple bite. Tender, delicious bites. A dance of sweet and savory on a pepper dance floor. I wanted at least 5 more of these bites.
Course 2: Apple Forest Salad, radicchio salad with thinly sliced apples, shiitake bacon dressed in a walnut vinaigrette. A chef's weight can be measured in how they craft a salad. Da'Ves made a mean one, each bite had something wonderful to offer.
Course 3: Seared Seitan Steak with bourbon-poached apples and caramelized onions over a bourbon apple cider reduction along with roasted carrots and Brussels sprouts. This was my favorite course. Seitan basked in this umptious reduction, moistened yet sturdy. Poached apples and caramelized onions balanced texture and sweetness. Then roasted veggies became sponges to clean surface area of plate.
Course 4: Apple Fritters with caramel cream cheese and candied pecans. Apple infused each bite of these fritters. It was like a battered a deep-fried apple cake, I think? Cashew-based caramel cream cheese was extraordinary. Bravo, Chef Da'Ves!
After a particularly gluttonous summer so far, I needed to take it down a few notches with a grain-free cleanse–2 days of raw food and juice. I also wanted to take this opportunity to try out some products that I've had on my radar in the grocery store, as a new year of work calls for hearty and healthful sustenance. Here is everything I ate today.
My Raw Cleanse, Day 1 (left to right):
Raw Revolution Spirulina Dream bar
tsp. organic apple cider vinegar
blk. mineral water
Organic green seedless grapes
Organic Bartlett pear
Organic raw cocoa goji bar
Brad's Raw Chips: Cheddar with organic kale and raw pepitas hummus
Health-Ade raw kombucha
Organic banana pie (see below)
BluePrint Beet, Apple, Carrot, Lemon, Ginger juice
Organic Mission figs
tsp. organic apple cider vinegar
With my high-speed blender revved up, I made a raw kale hummus and a banana dessert to appease my appetite. The crust of the organic banana pie: raw cashew, an organic raw cocoa goji bar, and organic coconut oil. The banana filling: 2 organic bananas (speckled), raw cashews and agave nectar (The agave nectar was the only non-raw ingredient I ate today.)
I also made the raw kale and pepitas hummus. Day 1, in the bag. I feel great but am craving the pretzel sticks in the pantry a great deal.
I woke up to the sound of Green Frogs calling me out through the forest and to the Bay with their rubber band snaps. And other morning sounds-a cacophony of sorts. Morning is so loud. Luckily, there was deep, dark coffee to sip as I walked down the trail. I kinda wanted that coffee commercial first cup.
I met the Blue Hill Bay at low tide. So everything was covered in thick yellow seaweed, empty and spongey like the veins of a giant sea creature.
There were several siren perches that'd fit the bill for my hope of a coffee commercial first cup. But ecstatic gnats and flies all wished to enter my eyelids. What do they do that for?
I saw plenty of funghi. I don't know anything about wild mushrooms, except that it excites me to see 'em!
I took the trail back up the the Institute's grounds, walking through the tremendous fields of wild flowers.
And they all smiled for pictures. It was a glorious way to start the day.
After a productive morning, we had a delicious vegan lunch. Now, I had half-expected uninspired offerings similar to the options available in town. But IHE practices what it preaches–by way of all-vegan. And because they know that this may be a participant's first sampling of vegan food, they go all out–much to the enjoyment of long-term vegans like myself. For lunch–a lentil walnut apple loaf with a delicious sweet glaze on top, a heaping spoonful of mashed potatoes…
A stellar salad with a scrumptious orange shallot vinaigrette and delicious vanilla-glazed anise cookies. In a word: Wow.
Dinners are on our own. Declining the invite to the steel drum band playing in town, I headed, instead, to Acadia National Park. But only after a quick and perfunctory dinner at Gringo's, a burrito joint off the downtown Bar Harbor waterfront tourist spot that can put tofu in the burritos and knows things like whether or not their beans have lard. Good enough for me!
I headed to the summit of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park, the highest point on the Atlantic coast, to watch the sun fade to the east in that pink trail that never photographs well. There were a ton of site-seers waiting for the big show. I love that.
Goodnight, Maine. You're beautiful.
I always giggle at myself for enjoying my weekend bagel the way I do. I really feel a sense of loss at its last bite. It's simple perfection. An everything bagel, of course. Then toasted to activate all those seeds' flavors. A layer of Earth Balance. And a layer of Bonne Maman preserves (today, Cherry). Every side of my tongue is happy. Especially when it finds the lone caraway seed, aaaah. The bagel, best done on Long Island, is to be savored. More so because I am heading west tomorrow. Where bagels suck.
Spring is finally in the backyard–in the form of noisy, enthusiastic birds and a clan of happy-faced daffodils.
The gang's all here. What'd we miss?
For lunch on this glorious spring day, we headed to Seasons 52 in Garden City, a higher end restaurant chain dedicated to seasonal cuisine. It has a weekly changing specials menu, hence the 52, and it has a separate vegan menu.
I had the Vegetarian Tasting: a quinoa-citrus salad with greens and cranberry bits, a soft taco piled with a variety of seasonal vegetables, two chunks of cedar-roasted tofu [cedar serving tray included], and another pile of blanched veggies. It was fresh and flavorful but lacked a bit of cohesion. I guess it was a tasting plate after all.
We also got sides of potato wedges and a Fiji apple slaw (below).
Then we headed to the local TCBY chain to try their Silk chocolate almond soft serve! I was very psyched about this vegan option which, the friendly employee informed me, rotates. Vanilla had just been replaced with this chocolate almond… and coconut was up next. Kinda excited about that!
I soft served it up and added some of their fruit and nut toppings. They have a whole lot of toppings that are mostly un-vegan.
It was real yummy. Creamy, not ice-y-ish, so you know there are some good and weird stabilizers. I was proud of my creation. Then I ate it all. And loosened my Swatch.
Every now and again you need to use what you already have–make some movement in the refrigerator. My crisper drawer runneth over. It is not permanent storage. So for my week's lunch, I'd use it all. It would be brunch for lunch. What better an idea to use leftover veggies and fruits. I started with a hash: diced potato (finished the bag!), diced turnip which I had been avoiding having never "worked with" before, diced leftover roasted carrot from my lunch last week, and the rest of the celery that I had with my Superbowl tempeh "wings."
The hash was so good, as anything potato-related is. On the right, some marinated tempeh cubes. One day I will measure ingredients when I make my marinade; this one was so good. I hope it wasn't because of the oozy squeeze of light corn syrup, which I needed for my Valentine sugar cookies, that I added, knowing that this item would be taking up pantry space for a while. I'd rather believe it was the final remnants of organic brown rice syrup I added. More turnover points for that jar!
I love tempeh. It wasn't always that way. Now I prefer it to tofu. Further back, roasted turnip wedges. After some time in high temps, bathed in salt and olive oil, the turnip was roasted to a creamy state. They were dreamy.
Next up, the fruit. I had leftover pineapple The Electrician picked up for me when I was sick. Then there was the new container of organic berries that was on sale and I couldn't pass up. I made a compote for the sweet part of my brunch lunch: pancakes!
Then I made the pancakes–flax pancakes with 1) the dried apple ring compote I baked up the Valentine tart with (see interesting history here), 2) the speckled banana ripening away, and 3) almond. 3 different versions of flapjacks that I'd mix and match.
It is going to be an easy week! Turnover points: 10!
In one of those wonderful random gifts to the vegan world, Rutherford, New Jersey's Rutherford Pancake House serves vegan breakfast options.
They had me at "Vegan Challah" French Toast. I devoured the plate of moist halves of scrumptious French toast thinking, "Is this really vegan?" I get vegan paranoia sometimes… When I'm served an accompaniment of butter with a vegan dish and I'm charged the price of regular French Toast and not the $1 more vegan item, my mind goes reeling. But I'd know; my body would know. It's vegan.
They also vegan pancakes, including weekend specials like vegan red velvet pancakes. They've got a tofu scramble and a couple of other Daiya-ed items. When a "regular" place like this has more than one vegan options, the vegan angels of mainstreaming get their wings. I need to make up a word for vegan-friendly omni eateries like this. They give me quite the thrill.
When one is in Rutherford, a stop at the all-vegan Sweet Avenue Bake Shop is in order. But of course!
And with plans with friends later in the day, I knew I had an excuse to buy most of Friday's specialty cupcakes, and a gluten-free cupcake for my gluten-intolerant buddy. Clockwise: their Sexy Sadie (red velvet with cream cheese frosting), S'mores, their Boston Cream (vanilla cake with bavarian cream filling), and the Caramel Brûlée. Packaged separately was the gluten-free Red Velvet.
I also grabbed 3 cake poppers. The cake inside was real soft and dough like. That middle one was divine–it was the cookie dough cake popper.
My favorite though–the one topped with marshmallow cream: the S'mores–deep, dark chocolate cake with a top hat of marshmallow cream, a drizzle of ganache and a wedge of graham cracker.
I'm a little ashamed of heading to another cupcakery in New York City immediately after Sweet Avenue. I headed to Soho's Georgetown Cupcake for their daily vegan option. Georgetown Cupcake was opened by ex-fashionistas in DC several years back (during what I call the Cupcake Boom) and they've had a lot of success… hence the storefront in SoHo.
It was standing room only. The 4 tables were filled with folks long since finished eating now watching their phones together. They probably wouldn't even have noticed if I sat with them. I ate my vegan Apple Cinnamon with cream cheese frosting watching the ridiculousness.
Finally, a savory sandwich at Bombay Sandwich Co. Friends and I met at the newish counter spot for ex-Smorgasburg vendor. I had been meaning to check them out since then… but the prospect of the throngs of Williamsburg-ers was always a deterrent. This bright, quiet location in the Garment District is much better. I had the Pesto Perfect–smashed spaghetti squash with arugula, sliced tomato and their homemade Kale & Walnut Pesto on ciabatta. Very flavorful and with a great kick of heat.
Ok, that's all I ate today. I'm a total glutton. Dear blog, look what I do for you!
Gorgeous apples of all shapes and sizes. Speckled uniquely, with underbellies, striated skin–a plane of antioxidants and fiber. Fruit–how glorious.
My first bunch would be a batch of scratchmade apple sauce. Simple and easy–but perfect.
Applesauce, to the left, and sweetened yam to the right. Autumn favorites.
In the theme of autumn brown, I made tamarind-glazed tofu in the broiler. My chuck of tamarind dearly needs a turnover. I will deal with this come VV's Pantry Turnover month (January).
Broiling is my new favorite cooking method for tofu.
Apple use number 2! Quick apple parfaits with coconut whip. Unfortunately the "whip" was more like a milkshake. It was still absolutely delicious. Lunch for the week is squared away. Now, gratuitous apple recipes commence!
One of the many reasons I love living on the east coast is the trees. Come autumn, there's an art show in the trees. Keep your cones and desert, west coast. I'll take the Deciduous trees. Their visual, cyclical renewal feels better, hopeful, than your towering sameness and arid granules.Of course, getting beyond New York City is always battle. But the wounds heal immediately upon arrival at the Sloatsburg rest area. There's a recharge there, like a video game; heart containers are full once again. From there, the New York Thruway is effortless. A joy, actually.
We were heading north to pick apples, as people of the Fall tend to do inexplicably (see here)–following a rainbow that broke a grey sky into pieces, the persistent blue sky calling the weather folks fools. Meanwhile I wondered, for the thousandth time, what the heck Tappan Zee was named after. (My assumption of it being Native American was correct–the Tappan were a sub-tribe of the Lenape & Zee is a Dutch word meaning a wide expanse of water.)
After finding that there was really no such thing as a truly organic orchard here on the east coast (Ok, west coast, you win there!), we were heading to a low-spray orchard–Stone Ridge Orchard, right outside of New Paltz. We passed a dozen you-pick-em places en route to Stone Ridge, likely with robust harvests of plump apples… but with a tough, chemical filmed skin no doubt. Stone Ridge was what I wanted, natural-sized apples with imperfections, not franken-apples.
The orchard was all ours! Just a few other souls were wandering about the trees. We picked a half bushel– strolling the lined rows, feeling the porous, packed crunch of the over-ripe apples under our feet. Idyllic.
Brown braids, dirty jeans, and my boots in moist earth. October is the most wonderful time of the year.
And Stone Ridge's farmstand even had a vegan cookie for me! With our bag of apples secured in the backseat, the trip back would be devoted to day dreams on apple recipes. I began plotting an apple take-over in the kitchen.

What's most striking about the collaboration between Nike and Pendleton Woolen Mills is how it manages to capture the best of each legacy brand's style. The collection's central piece, the Nike N7 Pendleton Woolen Mills Blanket, $298, has the quality and comfort one expects from Pendleton, though its design—high-contrast black and white, as opposed to their usual colorful mix—has an chic, innovative, and decidedly Nike feel. Better yet, it's not just the buyer who benefits from this piece. A portion of the proceeds from sales of the blanket goes to the American Indian College Fund, which provides scholarships for American Indian students. It's a fitting cause, as the blanket's mix of patterns and use of repeats and scale is inspired by traditional Native American dress—and knowing that the blanket's purchase supports a worthy cause gives the buyer a new level of warmth.

This is a sheer highlighter packaged in a click-pen applicator that includes a built-in sponge-tip applicator. The applicator isn't useful if your goal is smooth application, so this is best dabbed on with the tip and then blended with a concealer brush or sponge. This provides minimal coverage and has a finish that's more powdery and dry-looking than illuminating. You'll notice a slight amount of shine, but the overall effect is subtle. What makes this somewhat obvious are the shades; one is noticeably pastel pink, while the other is borderline yellow. They work when blended with a neutral foundation or concealer, but for less money and better results, consider Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind Double Perfector instead.
Principal Secret At-A-Glance
Strengths: Some well-formulayed serums and eye-area moisturizers; most of the sunscreens are sunscreens; good selection of targeted moisturizers; buffing scrub; small but workable selection of makeup.
Weaknesses: Expensive; jar packaging; the enzyme mask and peel; some SPF-rated products either lack the right UVA-protecting ingredients or are below SPF 15; most of the "spa at home" products contains needless fragrant irritants.
Is there something about acting talent or being beautiful that is equal to knowledge? We guess there must be, because having celebrities endorse products is big business the world over. It is simply amazing to me that Victoria Principal can convince women that they can have great skin like she does by using her skin-care routine. In fact, Victoria Principal's infomercial is one of the most successful ever.
Victoria Principal's skin-care products were originally formulated and manufactured by Aida Thibiant, a Beverly Hills aesthetician who ran a successful skin-care boutique and cosmetics manufacturing business there for years. Because the Guthy Renker Corporation that markets and distributes the line felt they no longer needed Thibiant to establish Principal's credentials, they severed ties with her in 1995. That isn't good or bad, it just means it isn't Principal's own skin-care genius behind these products.
This is a line with deals, or at least that's what they appear to be on the surface. Look a little deeper and these are just expensive products, and the deals are smoke and mirrors. You can buy groups of products for what appears to be a much-reduced price, but if you really don't need all those products, or if some of them are poorly formulated (like many of the sunscreens, products for blemish-prone skin, and moisturizers) you would be wasting your money, and that's no bargain.
The big deal with this brand today is the Reclaim line. Almost all of the Principal Secret Reclaim products contain the ingredient acetyl hexapeptide-3 (Argireline), an ingredient in many of the products that claim to work like Botox. Indirectly, the same claim is used for these products, which promise to soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles that result from repeated facial expressions, which is what Botox injections accomplish brilliantly. As a brief review of what we have previously written about Argireline, this peptide is synthetically derived, and supposedly has the ability to relax muscles that would normally contract to form the facial expressions that lead to wrinkles. According to the ingredient manufacturer, it does this by modifying the release of catecholamines, which are compounds that occur naturally in the body and serve as neurotransmitters, such as epinephrine, adrenaline, and dopamine. However, you would not want a cosmetic to affect any of those substances, because if it did, it could lead to a host of new problems.
Despite Principal Secret's enthusiasm for this ingredient, there is still no substantiated proof that it works as claimed. Further, we don't know the long-term adverse effects of applying acetyl hexapeptide-3 to skin. If it really worked to relax facial muscles, it would work all over the face (assuming you're using the products, and this line contains dozens of them, as directed) (Source: Cosmetic Dermatology, July 2005, pages 521–524). If all the muscles in your face were relaxed from topical application of acetyl hexapeptide-3, you'd have sagging, not youthful, skin. But then no cosmetics company would ever put such a claim on their products!
The makeup from Principal Secret isn't anything special. There are some good products, but nothing that cannot be found for less money at the drugstore. A strong point for color: it is well edited and designed to be simple, which many women will appreciate.

For gluten-free bread, this is 5 stars all the way...with some changes. The mix was too dry for me too, I added at least an extra cup of water. I left out the milk powder as we can't have it, ...
This was a great recipe for gluten free bread. I did take other people's suggestions. I soaked the rice flour in the liquid for 20 minutes, no dry milk and 4 eggs instead of the egg substitute. ...
I am on a Wheat and Dairy Free Diet for my Rhuematoid Arthritis and this recipe was great for me. It actually tasted normal and my family REALLY couldn't tell the difference!!

Dear Long-Distance Love,
Not every teen is lucky enough to share such a caring
kiss. If you decide to try a
long-distance relationship, fine.
But romance from afar can take its toll. If you're not both up for this or if it hurts too much, it's
better to bravely decide to remain special friends and enjoy feeling close
without losing your heart. In a
few years when you can drive, you might reignite the connection. Meantime, keep the memory of your kiss
as a pleasant image, not a painful one.
SERIOUS STUFF? For
serious issues, don't wait. Visit our
HELP! page now.

The Seventh Victim
It's been seven years since the Seattle Strangler terrorized the city. His victims were all young, pretty, their lifeless bodies found wrapped in a home-sewn white dress. But there was one who miraculously escaped death, just before the Strangler disappeared. . .
Lara Church has only hazy memories of her long-ago attack. What she does have is a home in Austin, a job, and a chance at a normal life at last. Then Texas Ranger James Beck arrives on her doorstep with shattering news: The Strangler is back. And this time, he's in Austin. . .
And Kill Again. . .
He's always craved her, even as he killed the others. For so long he's been waiting to unleash the beast within. And this time, he'll prove he holds her life in his hands--right before he ends it forever. . .
Praise for the novels of Mary Burton

It was hardly lit with dim ceiling lights and a lamp. Shelves were filled with books and binders. The windows are completely shielded by the curtains and blinds, giving no indication if it was dark or light outside.
Her question was what she's doing here. Claudia remembered entering the doors of a new school this morning, and went to look for someone. Then suddenly the entire world blacked out, and she ended up here.

Fanny decides to leave for a last-minute vacation, surprising Michelle with the expectation of teaching every class at the studio. But it's Michelle's birthday and her Vegas friend, Talia, arrives to celebrate in an epic fashion. And in an effort to distance herself from her current social circle, Truly manages to talk her way into joining in on the birthday festivities! The three women sneak into a local screening of one of those traveling movie trucks and get a bit intoxicated -- except for Truly of course. The night surprisingly turns into a celebration that breaks into Michelle's top ten birthday moments -- which is pretty impressive considering Michelle's past birthdays.
Meanwhile, Boo, Sasha, Ginny and Melanie also sneak into the movie truck screening with the help of Melanie's brother, Charlie. Boo, who still has a major crush on Charlie, manages to sit next to him on the crowded bleachers! Unfortunately, it totally backfires as he has a crush on another girl and asks Boo to write down that girl's phone number for him. Poor Boo! Also, Sasha's parents have an intense fight, which the girls overhear, leaving them aware of just how bad Sasha's home life really is.

HUH. So they just said its a BO and to get a d& c. Do I have to or will i eventually mc?

Ok let me see if I have this. Between June 8 and June 16 your HcG dropped from 21,000 to 17,000 and your gestactional sac grew but is empty?
I agree with PP - talk to your OB and get another opinion with another u/s. I wouldn't get a D & C until you know for sure what is happening and it becomes absolutely neccessary.
If I call you sweetie, I mean that I think you are completely naive and ignorant. Consider it a pat on the head as I completely disregard what you say
yup get a second opinion from your Dr. Also you don't have to have a D &C I m/c naturally all on my own and I prefered that. I was at home with my guy to support me. Get a script for pain meds tho because it can hurt like hell as you pass the sac. It won't last long, a few hours but again I prefer being at home.
I hope you won't need that advice, but just in case.
Good luck!

I wouldn't trust the ER doctors - this isn't their specialty. Call your doctor and ask for an appointment sooner based on what's happening.

5 facts about the death penalty
Although there have been fewer executions in recent years than there were in the 1990s, 31 states still have the death penalty on their books, as does the federal government.
Lesbian, gay and bisexual Americans differ from general public in their religious affiliations
A majority of LGB adults are religiously affiliated, but they are much less likely to be Christian than the general public and are more drawn to smaller, non-Christian denominations.
Methods can matter: Where Web surveys produce different results than phone interviews
A Pew Research Center experiment found several key areas where Web surveys produced different results than those conducted by phone.
Americans' ideal family size is smaller than it used to be
Half of Americans (48%) say two is the ideal number of children for a family to have, reflecting a decades-long preference for a smaller family over a larger one.
Among transgender adults, stories about a 'difficult' transition
For many, being transgender is a core part of their overall identity, even if they may not widely share this fact about themselves with many people in their lives.
America's death row population is shrinking
While most Americans continue to favor the death penalty for murder convictions, far fewer people are receiving death sentences than in years past.
Despite lower crime rates, support for gun rights increases
In December 2014, the balance of opinion flipped: For the first time, more Americans say protecting gun rights (52%) is more important than controlling gun ownership (46%).
Less Support for Death Penalty, Especially Among Democrats
A majority of Americans favor the death penalty for those convicted of murder, but support is at a 40-year low. Much of the decline in support since the mid-1990s has come among Democrats.
How Americans and Japanese see each other
We asked people in both countries if they associated particular words such as "hardworking," "inventive" or "selfish" with people in the other country.
Americans split over whether businesses must serve same-sex couples
A new Indiana religious freedom law has sparked national debate. Some say it strengthens protection of religious liberty, while others say it could provide legal cover for businesses to discriminate. The U.S. public is divided over these types of issues.

Virtual Quilts?
I am a quilter who uses a computer program to design way more quilts than I could ever make in several lifetimes.
The quilts featured on this site have never been made. No stash has been harmed in the process.
This site is a chance to show the un-used and un-seen designs to others, and occasionally share designs by making some EQ6 project files available by email on request.
Please note that my only association with the Electric Quilt Company is as a very satisfied customer.
I prefer to be in a tag free zone and award free area. I am just happy to know you came for a look.

Golden Globe Award nominee Eva Longoria ("Desperate Housewives") will guest-star on Brooklyn Nine-Nine for a three-episode arc this season on FOX. She will play SOPHIA, a defense attorney who catches JAKE's (Andy Samberg) attention when she faces off against him in court.
Golden Globe Award-winning comedy Brooklyn Nine-Nine returns for Season Two, beginning Sunday, Sept. 28 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. Season One ended with a surprising twist as Jake was asked to go undercover for a major FBI investigation. He said his goodbyes to the precinct, and finally confessed his "romantic-styles" affection for Detective AMY SANTIAGO (Melissa Fumero), the unit's honorary straight arrow. In Season Two, Captain RAY HOLT (Andre Braugher) finds himself face-to-face with his longtime nemesis (guest star Sedgwick) as the NYPD goes through administration changes.
Longoria joins previously announced guest stars Kyra Sedgwick ("The Closer"), who will appear in two episodes, former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens, appearing as himself, and Jenny Slate ("Parks and Recreation"), who will appear in the Season Two premiere.
Eva Longoria is a Golden Globe Award-nominated, Screen Actors Guild Award-winning and ALMA Award-winning actress, producer, director, entrepreneur and philanthropist. Best known for her starring role on "Desperate Housewives," Longoria has several upcoming films, including "Frontera," opposite Ed Harris and Michael Peña; and "Refugio," written and directed by Academy Award nominee Demian Bichir. Through her production company, UnbeliEVAble Entertainment, Longoria has developed several television series, including "Devious Maids" and "Mother Up." Known for her service to her community, Longoria started the Eva Longoria Foundation to benefit Latinas through education resources; and Eva's Heroes, dedicated to aiding individuals with intellectual special needs.
BROOKLYN NINE-NINE is produced by Universal Television, 3 Arts Entertainment and Fremulon. The series is created and written by Dan Goor and Michael Schur. The series is executive-produced by Goor, Schur and David Miner. The pilot was directed by the team of Phil Lord and Chris Miller.
