Police Brutality Topics
Democracy Now! has documented scandals of police brutality across the country. Scroll through the stories below to see our coverage of the killing of unarmed teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and protests calling for the arrest of the officer who shot him. In New York City we reported on the death of Eric Garner after police placed him in a chokehold as he repeatedly told them, "I can't breathe!" The encounter was recorded by an onlooker using his smartphone. We have also documented the killing of Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., a 68-year-old Marine veteran shot by police inside his own home after he mistakenly set off his LifeAid medical alert pendant. In 2011-2012 we covered the police crackdown on the Occupy movement, and spoke to Scott Olsen, who survived two tours in Iraq but nearly died when he was hit with a police projectile at an Occupy Oakland protest. We also interview loved ones of police victims, and feature conversations with advocates like Michelle Alexander, author of the best-selling book, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.
- A sweeping set of changes to the New York City Police Department's controversial "stop-and-frisk" program has been put on hold. In August, U.S. District Judge Shira Scheindlin found the program unconstitutional, saying police had relied on a "policy of indirect racial profiling" that led officers to routinely stop "blacks and Hispanics who would not have been stopped if they were white." While she did not...November 01, 2013 | Story

- On May 26, Elsa Cruz called 911 because she was worried her husband, Samuel Cruz, had stopped taking his medication for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Police from New Rochelle, New York, soon arrived. By the time they had left, Cruz had been shot dead. Police claimed he lunged at officers with a knife. Cruz was a 48-year-old artist from Puerto Rico. The Cruz family is filing a lawsuit against the New Rochelle Police Department today. We...October 22, 2013 | Story
- The civil rights lawsuits filed by the families of Samuel Cruz and Mohamed Bah, both murdered by police after family members called 911 for medical assistance, include a call to train police how to handle crisis intervention and how to respond to calls for help with people who are emotionally disturbed.

Marvel Internship Program
Well I am not sure if this is the right area but I believe this should be here
I am currently at an art school and will not be able to do internships for a couple of years but I thought I would try and get some information on this now. I would like to get into the comic book industry after graduating and was wondering what people's thoughts were on doing an internship with Marvel. The internships do not seem to be geared for art except for scanning and basic photoshop corrections but I think it might be a good way to get some contacts to later on use to break into the comic book world. So I was hoping to hear what people thought about the Marvel internships and if anyone has done an internship and what they thought of it. Thank you for your time.

Well ANY level of networking is usually a great thing to have and keep up on. Knowing the right people at the right times has gotten many a famous artist a job, career, or lifestyle. It all depends on what you want to do with your career, then network with the people who do exactly that. Good luck with everything!

The Coalition for Children's Rights submitted a lawsuit to Egypt's general prosecutor against the education minister for allowing corporal punishment in schools.
Education Minister Ibrahim Ghonim said on a tour in Gharbiya on Sunday that he approves of the "carrot and stick approach" in schools, "as long as the beating is not severe and no stick is used".
The coalition considered the approach a violation of Egypt's child rights law of 2008 which forbids violence and abuse against children in schools where offenders are punished by jail sentence of not less than six months.
The coalition stressed on the importance of ensuring children's rights in the new constitution by forbidding all forms of violence and abuse, calling for the prosecution of the minister for encouraging violating the law.

The Active 20-30 Club of Napa provides young adults with an opportunity for personal growth, friendships and leadership development while improving the quality of life for the special needs children in their community. Active 20-30 Club is unique from other service organizations in that we place a strong emphasis on an ACTIVE approach to community service—participating in a hands-on fashion.
Every year we offer our annual events—an "egg" hunt, fishing derby, Fun Fest, parade, and Project Santa—all free to the community. Through our Birthday Buddies program, we provide birthday party supplies to families living at a local shelter to celebrate a child's birthday. We also participate in special projects as they arise—playground construction and clean-up days, and Junior Achievement.
It's not all business in Active 20-30. Through service, our members develop strong friendships and have a lot of fun. Social events play a large role in 20-30 life, including barbecues, bowling nights, pub crawls, campouts, ski trips, baseball games, chili cook-offs, and visitations to other Active 20-30 clubs.
Members have the opportunity to travel nationally and internationally, meet new people, share in a common drive of service and develop new leadership skills. Our members have traveled to New Orleans, Costa Rica, Panama, the Dominican Republic and Mexico to volunteer their time at orphanages, Boys & Girls Clubs, and community centers.
One of the oldest standing service clubs in Napa County, Active 20-30 Club of Napa #57 was founded in 1930 and chartered under the bylaws of The Active 20-30 Club U.S. & Canada, our parent organization. Originally chartered as an all male club, the Active 20-30 Club of Napa integrated membership in the early 1990's to allow the women of the former Napa Active Women's Club to join the organization. Today, the Active 20-30 Club of Napa's membership is comprised of roughly equal numbers of men and women.

The Boston Celtics announced today that they have recalled center Fab Melo from their NBA Development League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws. — Boston Celtics (@celtics) December 10, 2012 This is an interesting move, considering that Fab didn't play in the two games this weekend for the Red Claws because of a strained quadriceps. The Celtics aren't practicing as a team today but will resume practice tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if Fab is sent back down after Wednesday's game vs the Mavericks. Friday the Celtics will begin a 3 day road trip through Texas and Chicago. [Discuss on CG Forums!]

For those who fight for it, life has a flavor the protected will never understand
Hello world! Lets go exploring. I work for LA County, and I love my job. Very gratifying work. Well self gratifying, I don't need the gratification of other people. I'm adventurous and random. I love to travel and be active. I've been to lots of countries, want to go to more. I want to go to the Oceania region and do some scuba diving or harpoon fishing. I'm the kind of guy that if you suggest something crazy like go base jumping, I would be the first to say shall I schedule us to go tomorrow? I really want to snowboard in the alps. Personality-wise, I'm smart, funny, caring, emphatic (I can relate to almost anyone somehow). My inter personal relationships with all types of people is uncanny. I'm fun loving and witty. Expect sarcastic remarks and pranks :). I'm searching for that one special woman who knows what she wants in life. You need to have clear set goals and the means to achieve them. I have sacrificed to be where I am today, so I don't want to hear excuses. Success takes sacrifice and discipline!! Besides that, you need to be able to have fun wherever our adventure takes us.

Buffered and enteric-coated aspirin do not eliminate the risk of developing an ulcer.
Indeed, Rep. Paul Ryan may talk a good game about the poor, but his policies still give social-justice advocates an ulcer.
The doctors suspected a heart issue or an ulcer and recommended he follow up with his regular physician.
c.1400, from Old French ulcere, from Vulgar Latin ulcerem, from Latin ulcus (genitive ulceris) "ulcer," from PIE *elk-es- "wound" (cf. Greek elkos).
ulcer ul·cer (ŭl'sər)
A lesion of the skin or of a mucous membrane, such as the one lining the stomach or duodenum, that is accompanied by formation of pus and necrosis of surrounding tissue, usually resulting from inflammation or ischemia.
An inflamed open sore on the skin or mucous membrane. An ulcer may form in the inner lining of the stomach or duodenum, interfere with digestion, and cause considerable pain.
Note: It used to be thought that stress was the cause of stomach and duodenal ulcers, but we now know that they are caused by bacteria and can be cured by antibiotics.


text: The Wasp's Sting wiki last edited by jeffreyv2512 on 08/15/13 02:22AM View full history OriginThe 1st victim of The Wasp's Sting!Ever since she first became The Wasp, Janet van Dyne only had her tiny size to get herself out of tight situations. Contemplating this, her partner Henry Pym invented a miniature air gun for her to use as a non-lethal weapon. Spider-Man was the first victim of The Wasp's Sting in the story "On the trail of the Amazing Spider-Man"CreationThe Wasp's Sting first appeared in Tales To Astonish #57 (Jul. 1964). It was conceptualised and drawn by Stan Lee and Dick Ayers.MechanicsThe Wasp's Sting is a miniature air gun that straps on to the forearm. The trigger is a ring attached to the gun via an elasticated cord. In order to shoot the "stings" the ring finger needs to be bent inwards. The Wasp's sting fires non-lethal cartridges of compressed air. It can fire one continuous burst or short sudden ones, depending on how long the finger is held down.

The N.C. Court of Appeals ruled against a Mitchell County woman who sought damages in the drowning death of her 6-year-old granddaughter while on an overnight "lock-in" at an activity center.
Maritta Louise Hudgins told staff at the Pinebridge Center in Spruce Pine when she dropped the girl off that she couldn't swim, and a staff member agreed she would not be allowed into the pool, according to the lawsuit.
But about an hour later on the evening of Jan. 12, 2007, Hudgins received a call informing her that Sarah Carpenter had been in a "serious accident." ...

HBO series "Game of Thrones" returns on April 1, and the Simpsons of Springfield appear to be fans.
"The Simpsons" changed their opening sequence to pay tribute to the series, based on the books by George R. R. Martin. The animated series often changes its opening credits, but a huge couch and three-eyed crows are always a nice touch.
According to the Los Angeles Times, before Simpson's episode "Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart," Moe's and the Kwik-E-Mart suddenly rise from the ground like clockwork, reminiscent of the "Game Of Thrones" opening.
And similar to the Westeros, Mr. Burns' house is renamed Burns Landing and the Simpson couch turns into: "The Couch."
According to Cinema Blend, the background music is similar to that of the "Game of Thrones" theme, and parts of Springfield rise up with mechanical wheels, and the map shows notable Springfield locations like Evergreen Terrace and Springfield Gorge.
The opening of "Game of Thrones" airs with slight variations in every episode. The locations used in that episode are included in the sequence.
A "Game of Thrones" preview for Season 2 is available here.

You know how sometimes you're confronted with a menu and there's so much going on you actually feel overwhelmed? (Maybe that's just us; we get pretty excited by food.)
The awesome thing about Brunswick East's Hellenic Republic is that you can either face the lengthy menu yourself, or go with the Trapezi menu – which means the chefs pick a bunch of the best and freshest dishes of the day.
Hellenic Republic is a casual, but impressive place and is all about great produce: "Our food philosophy is simple – fantastic, fresh produce to prepare traditional recipes in a clean, contemporary style." That means your saganaki is served with sweet peppered figs. Yum.
It's noisy and busy and while that might be a turn-off for some, it somehow just feels really exhilarating and Greek to us!

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Based on 325 reviews
U.S. News Review
If the looks are any indication of this hotel's excellence, we're sold. Lush grounds surrounded by Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, architecture inspired by the best Tuscan designs and hotel rooms resplendent with soft fabrics and sophisticated furniture are all indicative of the luxury found at Keswick Hall and Golf Club. Recent guests are pleased with this hotel's intimate feel (with only 48 rooms, Keswick has a commendable staff-to-guest ratio). Be sure to enjoy afternoon tea at the Villa Crawford, eat dinner at Fossett's Restaurant, and enjoy a nightcap at Fossett's Bar. All three options fare well with recent patrons, but some guests did report hiccups with service for large groups. For a more casual dining experience, retreat to the Palmer Room Restaurant, which also receives two thumbs-up from previous guests. When planning your trip, however, you should keep in mind that this resort is approximately 8 miles west of Charlottesville.

Simplicity is less about the material things you own than it is about maintaining the pleasures that knit you into the sturdy fabric of life.
While television can be a pleasure when it energizes, encourages, instructs and inspires, too often it is a passive way to zone out. After a night of watching television, you rarely hear, "Wow, that was so great. I had the time of my life." True pleasures reconnect you to the web of life, rather than disconnecting you and dropping you into an electronic twilight zone.
When I experience or witness sickness, I vow to appreciate every moment of my life.
When I sit on a bench, I am reminded of the joys of simply being present to my surroundings. Enjoying my breakfast and morning paper is my cue to be here now.
This line of thought derived from the staff question of the week that asked: "What was the last movie you saw?" My answer was "The Book of Eli," an apocalyptic setting with a man on a spiritual mission.

"... my experience in the challenged was awesome." Jose, Quemado
Team: 92
School: Monte del Sol
Area of Science: Epidemiology
Interim: Project Description
In recent months, the Ebola outbreak in West Africa has taken several thousand lives and continues to spread. The hyper lethality and rapid infection rate of this virus makes it a threat to the entire world. Rather than try to cure Ebola we have decided to instead focus on containing the virus to prevent a widespread outbreak. We believe the best way to do this is to isolate infected individuals, thereby preventing the virus from spreading to a new host. If no new hosts are available, the infection will run its course without further deaths.
Computational Plan
We are modeling the spread of Ebola on a global scale. This model will include parts of CDC containment procedures and the functionality of them. It will also include global transport methods such as boats planes and trains. Each region in the model will simulate differing populations and development. There will be an ability to toggle different containment procedures to simulate their effect on the spread in the model. Combining this with spread data we hope to accurately simulate the spread of Ebola under these varying conditions.
Progress to Date
The current progress on the model has focused on gathering data and laying down the basework for the model in Python. We have gathered extensive sources of data for the model, such as number of infected and rate of death throughout infected countries. Basework for the model has been laid down to place maps and draw country borders and routes. A plan for the development of the model has been set, with development goals and milestones. Using what we have gathered, we plan to finish the cohesive model to simulate a global spread of Ebola.
Expected Results
We expect the model to show a threshold over which the virus has spread to too many individuals to contain. We will then take this data and make an informed suggestion to when countries should begin to enter containment protocols, as defined in our model. The model will also determine which of our containment methods is most effective at halting the spread of the virus. Hopefully, this will yield useful data that can help stop future outbreaks.

Quick facts: Early 20's, fair sensitive skin, lifelong sufferer of blackheads and oilyness
I've been on RAM for about 3 years now. My pores are still very clogged but I no longer get as many raised blackheads or pimples. Basically, up close my pores are still dark and large, but from a normal distance my skin is quite smooth and clear. It hasn't done anything to control my oil. However, as long as my insurance covers it I'll probably continue to use it because my skin looks better when I use it. Also, it helps prevents wrinkles! haha Oh and shockingly, I never had any major irritation on my sensitive skin. In the dead of winter, my skin got slightly dry and red but I cut down to using every other night and it was fine.
Bottom Line: For me, RAM is not incredible, not bad, just decent. It's definitely worth trying if your insurance covers it.

My Derm Prescribe this for me after continuous failures on my own to control my hormonal acne. I've tried Retin-A in the Past but not the Micro version until now. I've been taking it slowly. My skin often reacts terribly to new products but so far so good. I'm now on week 3 and beginning to see much improvement. I've had some minor flaking and a little irritation around my eyes. You must follow directions when using this product. Use too much and you are just looking for trouble. Pea size amount doesn't seem like enough but it really is.
I should also have to add that my Forehead lines are already fading. Added benefit to this product is wrinkle control!!
I wash my face, Wait 1 hour or Apply a light moisturizer first and then apply the retin A and my eye cream at night. I started every third night and now on ever other night. My skin is definitely smoother and my dark marks from past breakouts are fading very well. I'm looking forward to seeing long term results. No Initial breakout, but I am on Minocycline and using Duac as a spot treatment. Very pleased so far. I think Buffering this with a Lightweight moisturizer is really the key to not having irritation or redness. I'm just a bit drier than normal. Way better and less harsh than Tazorac!!
Edit: My insurance will no longer pay for Retin A micro-Bleh!!! I used all my samples up so MY doc put me back on Tazorac gel .5%. I will say, Tazorac makes me peel really bad and a little red at first, but it does work in smoothing out my skin and does seem to fade any dark spots much faster than Retin-A micro. I am thnking about about having my prescription filled in Canada. It's $60 from Canada as opposed to $289. these pharmaceutical companies are ripping people off IMHO!

Retin-A Micro has done far more for my skin than any other anti-acne product I've tried. I've had acne since my teens (both on the face and body, more mild cases but not severe) and have always just lived with it. Products with salicylic acid worked OK, and still do to some degree. Benzoyl peroxide did nothing but dry out my skin. When I turned 25, I decided to take better care of myself and looked for a solution to combat my comparatively mild but persistent acne. I decided after much research to try a prescription retinoid. The first dermatologist I visited in March 2010 told me my acne "wasn't that bad" and should use a BPO cream. (The same dermatologist then told me to buy a Clarisonic to help with acne. Sorry, but a glorified vibrating brush would not help with the inflammatory skin conditions of acne and seborrheic dermatitis you just diagnosed me with, you twit.) Went to a different derm a few months later (July 2010) who put me on Retin-A Micro 0.04% without hesitation. At first, I didn't experience any of the redness or flaking that prescription retinoids are known for, but saw some improvement. I used the product every third night to start, then every other night, then two nights on and one night off (I usually go three days between shaving my face, don't use RAM the night before I want to shave). For whatever reason, I stopped using RAM in September or October, can't remember which month. Towards the end of 2010, I reintroduced RAM into my nighttime skin care routine on the two nights on, one night off schedule. Only then did I start getting the wonderful dryness and flakiness so many have the pleasure of experiencing on the path to great skin. In all honesty, the flaking wasn't that bad and I only had mild irritation and redness only after starting to use RAM again. I started using Paula's Choice Skin Balancing Moisture Gel with RAM to combat the dryness. It's now May 2011 and my skin is so clear, I can't remember the last time it was this clear. I still have a ways to go but am much happier and more confident now. I plan to upgrade to RAM 0.1% since I was so impressed with the results. Prescription retinoids (RAM, regular Retin-A, Differin, Tazorac, etc.) are not for everyone but with proper use, they yield excellent results. Side note/Disclaimer: Prescription retinoids should be used with extreme caution (or just avoided altogether) by those with inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, etc. that can accompany acne. I have SD but found my skin was better after using RAM, even the SD affected areas.

Why why why is a product junkie like me only finding out about this product now, well into my 30s?? LOL! I wished I would have know about it sooner...
I am using this for wrinkles, and to help fade some acne scars (from my teenage years). I don't have acne now, but I do have red blotchy patches on my face from past pimples, enlarged pores, blackheads, , etc. My complexion has never been great..
So I'm on week 2, and the results are already amazing... The deep lines on my forehead are already noticeably fainter.. Those blotchy patches are slowly disappearing... My skin did feel quite raw the first week of using this to the point that it even hurt to put on makeup, but that was only for maybe 2 days and then the sensitivity went away. Totally worth a little pain if you ask me :)
As far as the price - I live in Canada and I paid 26 $ for a tube , which is dirt cheap IMO..I've seen foundations that cost more than that! So not only does it work, it's really affordable, especially when you compare drugstore creams that are 3 times that price, and don't actually do anything...
I have the .1%, I use every night followed by a good cream. I can't wait for more time to go by to see the full results, I will update soon :)

First of all, I must say up front that I am not using this product for acne, as I don't have any. I am using it for the anti-aging benefits only. I just finished working with dermatologists for a month and many of them recommend this for younger, smoother skin, and I was dying to try it. One of the derms looks younger now than she did in her grad photos 3 years ago, and she attributes this to daily use of Retin A and sunscreen. I tried the 0.04% Retin A micro and at first, I didn't let my face dry completely before applying (you should wait a good 20-30 minutes after face washing to apply this) and it peeled my face off. I was so embarrassed because my face was red, scaly and itchy for about 1.5 weeks. It was especially bad around the mouth and on my cheeks Then I started waiting for longer before applying it, and I started using a mild moisturizer (the derm's office gave me samples of La Roche Posay Toleriane Ultra, which worked well). Within a few days, my skin started looking better. The scaly red areas on my cheeks and chin peeled right off and now my skin tolerates the Retin A Micro very well, and my complexion is glowing. I had nice skin before but now I feel even more confident about my complexion. The blackheads on my nose are fading and I only need to wear a light dusting of powder. I have contemplated switching to a higher concentration but I don't think it will make a huge difference, so I will continue using the 0.04% indefinitely! It's a worthwhile investment and I have started recommending it to everybody.

First off, this has got to be the BEST product I could have ever used. I have tried a large amount of over the counter medications, and a couple of prescription medications. None of them have even compared to Retin-Amicro! I have a SUPER oily T-zone, but my cheeks are extremely dry. My t-zone is prone to horrible acne, whiteheads and insanely huge pimples. When I first started using this, I applied it all over my face before I went to sleep. It made my cheeks SO dry and flaky, and if I applied moisturizer, it would become super oily. I tried it for a week because I knew there were side effects, but after that first week, I gave up for about two weeks. Then my acne became really bad so I tried it again, but this time I only applied it to my forehead. My forehead got really red, irritated, dry and itchy the first week, but I stuck through it because I was desperate! After the first two weeks, my skin started clearing up a lot and the dryness and flakiness stopped. But for the next two weeks after that, my acne got SO BAD. It flared up so much, but I was on a school break so I wasn't worried about it looking bad. I stuck it through those two horrible weeks and it was soooo worth it. After that, it was all clear skin. It clears up my acne, gets rid of my scars and controls my crazy oil. It still makes my skin a little dry, so I tried a couple creams and moisturizers. The only one that moisturizes and doesn't make my skin oily is Aveeno Positively Radiant with SPF 15. Retin-Amicro recommends you put sunscreen on, so I got that one. When paired together, it's like a miracle worker. I have never felt so confident about my skin. I don't ever have to wear foundations, concealers, or powders! TRULY A MIRACLE WORKER !

this product gets a lot of bad reviews but i honestly feel 90% of it is because of misuse. Both my sister and i have tried this and now have pretty flawless skin.
-Don't expect clear skin for 3-5 months
-Don't slather this on your face for your first time..(some people put it on for thirty minutes..then wash it off...then increase it day by day.)
-Why? this product will make your skin peel, burn, and itch like no other (which i experienced quite severely b/c i couldn't wait to get clear skin and put on a LOT on my first night)
-It will make you break out....a lot..(purging)
-Your life will suck for a while.
-BUT IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS YOU WILL HAVE CLEAR SKIN THAT IS LESS ACNE PRONE. (meaning you can reap the benefits of other products instead of worrying of it breaking you out)
So..i love this...and it took a while for my skin to get as nice as it is now..it took around 3-4 months for the intense purging to stop...then one more month for my skin to bounce b/t really nice to a couple of pimples here and there...and now..all i get are breakouts from my periods (one/two pimples)
REALLY give this a try...and don't use so many fancy products while you do..simple cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliator, and SPF. you need this b/c it makes your skin more susceptible to sun burns.
this is my current routine
-a-d-e cream cleanser (earth science)
-oatmeal "scrub"/"treatment" ( i take plain oatmeal i my hair..i wet it..less water if i want more of a scrub..more if i want more of a treatment..rub this on my face..then wash off..i do this b/c i had excema and it keeps the itchiness away..as well, it soothes my skin b/c retin-a micro is sort of an intense treatment.
-no moisturizer (every moisturizer i've tried has broken me out)
Every 3 days i'll put on a thin layer of retin-a micro to "prevent" acne.
A-d-e cream cleanser (earth science)
oatmeal (maybe)
Aveeno spf 30 positively radiant moisturizer / origins vitazing spf 15
i use a microdermabrasion scrub once every..two weeks? the combination of daily oatmeal "scrubs" and retin-a (which exfoliates your skin too..somehow...google it)
i don't need, or should exfoliate my skin too much..and this is a pretty intense "scrub" ...it's the kiehls microdermabrasion scrub
i use yogurt masks sometimes when i feel like my skin needs a little moisturizing/hydration..
i tone my face w/ green tea sometimes..
i have normal skin type...not very acne prone anymore! (: and you can be too...if you give this a chance

i just started using retin a micro this week, i have only used it twice this week because my skin is peeling and feels dry and tight. i have startedto break out after using this product but i think it is just doing its job and will take some time to see the results. i plan on using at least 2 times a week until my skin gets used to it and then i will slowly increase.
my skin history: moderate acne, melasma (during pregnancy and still now even though my daughter is 1.5 years old), oily skin, medium to dark tone. my father is part armenian so i tan really easy but am now trying to avoid the sun which i love so much due to the melasma - as the sun makes it worse.
i am hoping that the retin a will help with my skin tone, texture of my skin and the mild acne.
i will post once a week to update on my progress. oh, i am 31 years old and don't have wrinkles, just uneven skin tone and mild acne.

I wish this product had been properly explained to me by my derm and I'm sure it would have worked. I had been on differin for moderate acne for most of my 20's and had relatively flawless skin. I didn't even realize it was flawless because my skin never gave me issues so I didn't pay too close of attention to it, if that makes any sense. So fast forward to me running out of differin (a tube would last a year) and figuring that I had probably grown out of acne and didn't need it anymore. Wrong. I also didn't realize retinoids were good for aging/wrinkles, a fact I now know from struggling to regain control of my skin and researching. So my new derm wanted to try me on retin a micro, the 1% version. She just didn't prepare me for the side effects and was rather callous and cavalier about it. She just said use it at night after washing (along with acanya in the morning, but I could only tolerate it for a month then stopped). I gave retin a micro a year; a year of raw, painful, cracked, peeling, dry, and still breaking out skin. Maybe my derm assumed I would eventually just adjust to it? But I never did, I really wish I did. She just never offered any instruction or advice for my complaints about the irritation. Okay, enough complaining about a bad derm, I would strongly suggest easing into this product if you are reacting poorly to it, and use a good therapeutic moisturizer like cetaphil or cerave. I read things online like "this product works better if used alone, no moisturizer". That messed my skin up! I would rather have a relatively smooth, hydrated complexion that a rough, scaly, peely one. This product rocks if used properly so good luck to those of you just starting it!

I use this to combat congestion that I get in my t zone and with hopes it helps with the prevention of wrinkles (if there is such a product). I started out just a few times a week and worked my way up to every night and then back down to a 3 times a week. I don't use any moisturizer after this. I use my serums and moisturizers in the morning. I found to get better results that way. This has totally shrunk and cleared my pores. Seems to make me less oily. Fine line improvement...eh guess I need to use it for a while longer and be patient or stop being so self critical. A tiny amount is all that's needed for the whole face because this is stuff is stupidly expensive.

1967 Ford Mustang Group II Hardtop - Single-Minded
Just Two Men Have Held The Title To This Warhorse Group II Mustang, Each Sharing A Passion For Putting It Through Its Paces
Step By StepView Photo Gallery
Among the many stories that occurred over a remarkable history, McComb related a particularly interesting tale about the last race of the '67 Trans-Am season at Kent, Washington-the manufacturer's championship being on the line between Ford and Mercury. Shelby team driver Jerry Titus was widely viewed to have the best shot at winning for Ford, but when Titus mangled his Mustang during practice, a deal was struck to have him drive McComb's car. Despite finding himself in the odd position of sitting on the sidelines, McComb says the arrangement was to his financial benefit. The deal stipulated that after the race, the Shelby team would install a fresh engine and prep the car for the SCCA National Championships. "We were mostly limited by financial resources, none of us had any money back then," McComb says, putting the agreement in perspective. As it turns out, Titus DNF'd due to an engine failure at Kent, but the Second-Place finish by Shelby team driver Ronnie Bucknum was enough to earn the championship for Ford. As well, the subsequent post-race freshening seemed to work out for McComb, who went on to accomplish exactly what he'd hoped-winning the SCCA's '67 A-Sedan national title.
Dusting It Off
During the mid-'80s, McComb and Doty returned this historic car to its early appearance, and popped up again on the club and vintage racing scene. Finally in 2002, after 35 years of full throttle ownership, McComb sold his car to a man who knew it well-SAAC Trans-Am registrar Gary Underwood. Underwood tells us he first encountered the McComb juggernaut at Daytonain 1969, while he crewed for Bob Allen's B-production 289 Cobra. For years, he watched McComb work his mastery at the wheel of the Mustang and describes the Midwest racer as the kind who either broke, hit, or won. "This car impressed me as much as anything in the era, and I consider myself exceedingly lucky to have it today," Underwood says. The change of ownership seems a good match all the way around, for McComb wanted the car to continue to race and be seen in the public eye. "Gary is a racer, and that's what this car was meant to do," McComb says. "I didn't want it sitting in a museum."
As if to prove the point, Underwood and his son/frequent driver Terry wouldn't stand by and be content with the level of power generated 41 years ago. In the day, McComb and his FoMoCo cohorts cranked their 289s into the vicinity of 390 flywheel horsepower, and in fact, Underwood retains one of the original engines used during the '67 season-replete with cast crank and two-bolt main block. While the underhood scenery is much the same today-right down to the original competition valve covers and dual quad intake-power production is clearly in a different league. Among several various combinations they may run from race to race, the Underwoods' "big" motor is a 306-incher churning out a whopping 536 hp at 7,{{{300}}} rpm, and 422 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. Parts and technology make the difference, the big items being a '70 Boss 302 block and Trans Am forged-steel crank, Carrillo rods, 13:1 compression, vintage ported GT40 heads, and a big Crower solid roller cam. Expertly machined and assembled by Larry Mollicone and Randy Gillis respectively, this vintage legal powerhouse flat-out gets it on.
These days, the Underwoods do their best to keep appearances on pace with the car's tradition, meaning racing at virtually every opportunity. In recent years, the McComb '67 has run storied tracks throughout the United States, competed regularly with the Historic Trans-Am Group, and run major vintage events such as the Wine Country Classic and {{{Monterey}}} Historics. Setup is circa 1967, though all involved acknowledge the car was hardly the same from one week to the next-such was its constant evolution. No matter, hitting a moving target isn't the point; rather, the car is true to its original roots and a shining example of the rarest of the rare being used as it was intended. So here's a big thumbs-up to the men who've kept this warhorse on the road, and long may they continue to pound the pavement with this legendary quarter horse.

It was then that I decided my column this week would be about my friend and mentor, Mary Pauline Burtschi.
I first met Mary on July 5, 1981, at "The Little Brick House" on St. Clair Street in Vandalia.
The two photographs pictured with this story absolutely captivated me from the first moment I saw them. Why? Both pictures are of the same house.
Home and business of tailor, Louis Schutz, and his seamstress sister, Anna, the address was 215 S. Fourth St., across the street from Gloria's Christian Supply.
The one-story structure is very old, probably older than Louie Schutz, who was born 1877 in Vandalia. This photo dates to the early 1900s.
If you've driven in downtown Vandalia recently, you know that the enhancement project there is clearly under way.
For now, the work is confined primarily to upgrading the city's storm sewer system on Fifth and Sixth streets. Though not as visible as later portions of the project will be, fixing the storm sewers is vitally important in making the downtown area attractive for current and future businesses. We must fix that system if we're to end the basement flooding and other problems that have plagued the antiquated existing sewer system.
From the beginning, it was a decision that didn't even meet the state's own criteria for closing offices. The client base was higher than the minimum set by the agency for closure and the driving distances to alternative Department of Human Services offices were greater than the standard set by the agency.
It just didn't make sense.
A couple of weeks back, my friend, Joyce McClary, was showing me photographs taken on one of her walks.
Joyce was scrolling through the images, telling me where she had taken the shots when all at once I stopped her. The next photo was of the statue in South Hill Cemetery of a seated woman.
The previous week, I had searched newspaper microfilm at Evans Public Library, looking for a story about four statues, sculpted in Italy, unveiled during a Memorial Day ceremony in 1952. The seated woman was one of the four.
Recently, I contacted my friend, Roger Boye, of Evanston, to tell him my exciting news! My name appeared among the acknowledgments in Edward Callary's new book, "Place Names Of Illinois." This was a first for me, and I knew Roger would appreciate what it meant.
I met Roger early in 1995 through a genealogical query. He was interested in family information on the Rheiner and Boye families of St. Paul. I copied what I had and sent it to him.
This is the time of year for proms, and many local high schools have either held theirs already or will be holding them soon. At Vandalia Community High School, the prom is this Saturday from 7-11:30 p.m.
It's a wonderful time of making memories, socializing with friends and enjoying a dress-up date. If you'd like a glimpse into the evening's activities, the coronation of the prom king and queen will take place at 8 p.m. in the gymnasium. This year's theme is "A Night of Enchantment."
This week, they brought in the big equipment.
And as the first buckets of earth were moved, the downtown enhancement project in Vandalia is officially under way.
The first phase will be to install new storm sewer lines. Those will take runoff water out of the sanitary sewer system, which should significantly reduce the load on our sewage treatment plant. Plus, by moving the storm water out of the area more efficiently, the incidents of basement flooding will be significantly reduced in the downtown area.
