Act fast to curb global warming, or extract CO2 from air: U.N.
, Environment Correspondent BERLIN (Reuters) – Faster action is needed to keep global warming to agreed limits and delays until 2030 could force reliance on technologies to extract greenhouse gases from the air, a U.N. report said on Sunday.
The study, drawing on the work of more than 1,000 experts, said a shift from fossil fuels to low-carbon energy such as wind, solar or nuclear power was affordable and would shave only about 0.06 percentage point a year off world economic growth.
Shift to green energy will be tiny brake on growth-UN
BERLIN, April 11 (Reuters) – A radical shift from fossil
fuels to low-carbon energy would slow world economic growth by
only a tiny fraction every year, a new draft U.N. report on
tackling global warming said on Friday.
Many governments had complained that an earlier draft was
not clear in its estimate of the costs of low-carbon energy,
which include solar or wind, nuclear and fossil fuels whose
greenhouse gas emissions are captured and buried underground.
UN climate report seeks clearer economics to guide action
BERLIN, April 10 (Reuters) – A U.N. report about ways to fix
global warming due on Sunday is likely to disappoint investors
seeking clear-cut economic calculations about the benefits and
costs of curbing rising greenhouse gas emissions.
Authors say the report stops short of an economic bottom
line since it is hard to put a value, for instance, on human
lives lost to extreme weather or on risks of a faster melt of
Greenland's ice sheet that would push up sea levels.

Many nations wary of extracting carbon from air to fix climate
OSLO, April 8 (Reuters) – Many nations want a draft U.N.
report to tone down prospects for sucking greenhouse gases from
the air to help fix global warming, reckoning the technologies
are risky, documents seen by Reuters show.
Government officials and scientists are meeting in Berlin
this week to edit the report, which says time is running out to
keep warming below an agreed ceiling of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6
Fahrenheit) over pre-industrial times.
Time running out to meet global warming target: U.N. report
OSLO (Reuters) – World powers are running out of time to slash their use of high-polluting fossil fuels and stay below agreed limits on global warming, a draft U.N. study to be approved this week shows.
Government officials and top climate scientists will meet in Berlin from April 7-12 to review the 29-page draft that also estimates the needed shift to low-carbon energies would cost between two and six percent of world output by 2050.
UN climate chief urges radical clean-up of oil, gas industry
OSLO, April 3 (Reuters) – The U.N.'s climate chief called on
the oil and gas industry on Thursday to make a drastic shift to
a clean, low-carbon future or risk having to leave
three-quarters of fossil fuel reserves in the ground.
"The time for experimentation, for marginal changes and for
conditional response is now over," Christiana Figueres told the
International Petroleum Industry Environmental Conservation
Association (IPIECA) in a speech in London.
A quarter of Europe's bumblebees, vital to crops, face extinction: study
OSLO (Reuters) – Almost a quarter of Europe's bumblebees are at risk of extinction due to loss of habitats and climate change, threatening pollination of crops worth billions of dollars, a study showed on Wednesday.
Sixteen of 68 bumblebee species in Europe are at risk, the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) said. It is preparing a global study of the bees, whose honeybee cousins are in steep decline because of disease.
U.N. draft sounds alarm as world looks set to miss emissions target
OSLO, March 31 (Reuters) – By Alister Doyle, Environment
OSLO, April 1 (Reuters) – The world will need far tougher
curbs on greenhouse gases, by both developed nations and
emerging economies, to keep global warming from exceeding a
promised ceiling, a draft U.N. report shows.
Rich nations led by the United States would have to halve
their emissions by 2030 from 2010 levels to keep warming below

At U.N. climate talks, many seek sterner warnings of GDP losses
OSLO (Reuters) – By Alister Doyle, Environment Correspondent
OSLO, March 28 (Reuters) – Many governments want sterner warnings of probable economic damage from global warming in a draft U.N. report due on Monday, saying that existing estimates of trillions of dollars in losses are only part of the picture.
A final draft before talks this week among governments and scientists in Japan projected that warming would cut economic output by between 0.2 and 2.0 percent a year by damaging human health, disrupting water supplies and raising sea levels.

Mexican activists take action against U.S. genetically engineered maize. (c) Greepeace/Adan
The report, written by the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) of the North American Free Trade Agreement (United States, Canada and Mexico) recommends that all genetically engineered (GE) maize imports be labelled as such and that all U.S. maize entering Mexico should be milled upon entry, to prevent living seeds from being planted intentionally or accidentally.
The Bush administration has intervened several times to delay the publication of the report -- completed three months ago -- and there is still no official date for its publication.
Contaminated Food
The scandal began in September 2001 when the Mexican government announced that scientists had discovered contamination of indigenous varieties of maize with genetically engineered varieties. The likely source of the contamination is imported maize from the United States.
Indigenous and local communities in Oaxaca were horrified, and non-governmental environmental organizations in Mexico started a campaign to bring the contamination to the attention of the world.
As the genetic home of maize, Mexico is on the forefront of natural diversity in the crop. There are hundreds of local and wild varieties of Mexican maize, all of which could be marginalized and overtaken by aggressive GE strains. Loss of these varieties would put the world's food security at risk since farmers rely on these genetic resources to create new varieties, especially ones adapted to changing environmental conditions.
The Study Begins
One of the first things Mexico did was to request the CEC to look into the matter. The CEC began a process to investigate the contamination; possible impacts on human health, communities, and the environment; and eventually to provide recommendations to the three NAFTA governments on how to address the contamination. The CEC finished the long-awaited report on the contamination of Mexican maize by U.S. GE maize way back in June.
"The recognition of real environmental risks of GE maize and the consequent recommendation to mill U.S. maize upon entry into Mexico will clearly damage the U.S. position in its WTO case against Europe. It is no wonder they worked so hard to try to prevent its release," said Doreen Stabinsky, genetic engineering campaigner for Greenpeace International.
There are at least two reasons why the United States might want to delay publication of a report that highlights the environmental, human health and socio-cultural risks of GE maize - the WTO case and GE food aid.
The WTO Case
In 2003, the United States, Canada and Argentina launched a case against the European Union for a de facto moratorium on new approvals on GE varieties in place in Europe since 1998. The CEC report is likely to provide strong support for Europe's scientific arguments. It calls attention to the huge gaps in knowledge that exist regarding the impacts of GE maize in Mexico, stating explicitly that risk assessments carried out in the United States are not adequate to determine potential impacts in Mexico.
"The WTO suit was clearly a politically motivated attack on the environment and on European consumers. It is highly significant that another trade body has now confirmed that there are unique risks to genetically engineered organisms and that there is scientific backing for a precautionary approach on genetic engineering," said Stabinsky. "The only appropriate next step for the U.S. government is to follow the CEC's recommendations and mill their maize exports."
GE Food Aid
A number of African countries have rejected whole U.S. maize as a potential threat to their environment, and requested only milled maize. The report backs up these demands as it concludes that there is insufficient data on which to conclude safety of transgenic maize for the Mexican environment and recommends milling of maize to reduce these risks.

text: McLaren set to run grey livery and no title sponsor 20 January, 2014 229 McLaren looks set to enter the 2014 season with silver grey livery, and apparently without a replacement for departed title sponsor Vodafone. The British team has launched a range of new official replica teamwear. Whay has emerged is a distinctly 'Ron Dennis-style' grey and white look, leaning strongly towards the conservative side. Moreover, the main lettering on the shirts and caps is simply 'McLaren', while the full team name now reads as 'McLaren Mercedes', suggesting that a replacement for departed title sponsor Vodafone has not been found as yet. The news would seem to end speculation the Woking based team could revert to its traditional orange for the 2014 livery, as the curtain falls on the Mercedes era just one year ahead of the switch to works Honda power. (GMM) Subbed by AJN. Content on GrandPrix247.com by: staff & contributors, Reuters syndication, GMM service, Getty Images, Formula 1 teams, sponsors & organisations. Ankit williams v2.0 is coming Melvyn Scott Well I have heard of lots of different shades of colours, but Ron Dennis Grey is definitely a new one to me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stevie Speed Apparently the Honda money, which is coming through already, is more than a title sponsor would pay anyway Shin Well, if even McLaren isn't able to find/complete a new title sponsorship deal then the sport has really hit rock-bottom. Time for Bernie (before he goes to jail for several years), CVC, and the FIA to introduce a reasonable $150 million cost-cap, plus a fair distribution of commerciial income to all the teams, instead of 60%-70% to two or three teams. Sabman I really hope they go for a silver and black livery like the one from the West era. Will bring back good memories from the past! Formula One Is Lost The rich teams don't want anything to with a cost cap because that would make more teams able to compete against them. Formula One has completely lost its way. AlonsoFan well thats pethatic! The ultimate Mclaren cant find a title sponsor..the team that has been up there with Ferrari , redbull and Mercedes.. F1 has hit a new low! its becoming shallow and shallow..the bubble of F1 will burst soon..its becoming more and more WWE…one more thing f1 is losing fans more and more quickly.. the young people of today wont even give a p(ig's) a(S)s about F1. the way things are going RBC Haaaaa, they had 1 year to find a title sponsor, they said they had many options, and now nothing! No wonder they pushed Lewis out the door. They couldn't afford him. What a joke team they are. Plus their car company loses $100m+ every year. I am laughing so hard at them after they insulted Lewis with their pathetic attempt to lowball him on salary. I hope they end up like Williams, running at the back and talking about past glory. Ian " Stevie Speed 20 January, 2014 at 7:01 pm Apparently the Honda money, which is coming through already, is more than a title sponsor would pay anyway " So not only will Honda supply engines for free (valued at £20 mill a year or so), they will also PAY McLaren more than the £50 mill a year Vodafone did, for being allowed to supply the free engines? Colour me skeptical on that. Steve W Maybe teams without title sponsors will be awarded double-points for the last three races… Kimi4WDC @Steve W But they will have to pay more for the points!!!! Taskmaster Yawn… Step one toward the grand recovery – go boring gray to match the hair color of the old farts in charge…. Inspired thinking right out of the box. Not. AlexL No cause for worry I think, Honda has the means to attract a title sponsor from corporate Japan sooner or later, I hope… Honokaa Chuck Not to worry, Mansoor Ijaz is working out a deal for McLaren as we speak…!

Maybe it's the scouting reports I am reading but I sure don't get some of the rankings here. Let me share some snippets of a few guys just to see what people think.
12/20/2009 -- I've downgraded Colon's arm-strength and range projections. I still think he has a good chance to stick at short, but there's enough out there questioning his arm-strength that I feel my initial words in the report were a bit to aggressive. His range is downgraded until we see what happens with the leg recovery.
11/25/2009 -- WWBA World Championship, October 25, 2009 (Jupiter, Fla.) (Nick James in attendance) -- Machado showed clean actions and an above-average to plus arm in the field. Range could hamper ability to stick at SS. Solid command of strike zone at the plate.
Based on those scouting reports it sounds like you have a future 2B (Colon) and a future 3B (Machado) and not 2 SS's, it's the range issue. Having said that I don't have a problem with them as draftable players they both seem to have good bats and we could use good players at any position. But like O'Conner they both lack the range (and/or arm) to stick at short and O'Conner has the better arm of the 3 so why in the world would anyone take them ahead of him? Just curious because I don't have all the facts here I suppose but when stacking them all up O'Conner seems to grade out ahead of them, or at least right there with them but his projections got him going much later.
Here is O'Conner's link.

Recent rain takes Southwestern Indiana out of 'extreme drought' ranking
Thanks to a Labor Day weekend soaking from remnants from former Hurricane Isaac, Southwestern Indiana is no longer officially in the grips of an "extreme drought," according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
Though conditions had been improving lately because of rainy August, most of Southwestern Indiana was entrenched in at least an extreme drought — the fourth-driest of five classifications used in the federal rankings — since June. Overall, 39 percent of the state was still in at least an extreme drought, according to last week's ratings. According to the National Weather Service, nearly three inches of rain fell last weekend at the Evansville Regional Airport due to Isaac, though some areas of the country got much more.
The maps, which are updated each Thursday, show none of the state in an extreme or exceptional drought. But almost half of the state — including all of Southwestern Indiana — remains in a severe drought, the next-driest classification used by the agency. Even with the recent influx of rain, Evansville is still more than 10 inches below normal for precipitation for the year, according to weather service statistics.
So far in September, 3.21 inches of rain has already fallen — including 0.28 inches Wednesday — according to the National Weather Service. That cumulative total already eclipses the average rainfall for the entire month.

Pretty pendant, bad chain The pendant is gorgeous and goes well with the 2ct earrings. It is very shiny even though it is not set in sterling sliver. However I do not like the chain. Every time I wear the necklace the chain clasp ends up hanging in the front where the pendant is instead of staying in the back. I only have this issue with this particular necklace. My advice is get a different chain. The pendant is classic and beautiful. May 6, 2015
Beautiful yet Simple Absolutely love this necklace. Its the perfect length for any shirt or dress that has a high neckline. Its a very simple necklace, but very beautiful. April 1, 2015
ZirCona Necklace! Beautiful. Its prefect dont know what ppl are complaining abt January 22, 2015
Beautiful The only thing I didn't love about this necklace was the chair would get bent and after that it looks tacky. But if you are careful with it, it is very beautiful. December 15, 2014
Great Pendant, Horrible Chain This would be a really great necklace if the chain weren't so terrible. The clasp is way too small and difficult to open. This is problematic if you have long nails or manicured nails. I took the pendant off and placed it on another chain I had. It worked perfectly. December 2, 2014

The New Humanitarian Order
This article is excerpted from the conclusion to Mahmood Mamdani's book Saviors and Survivors: Darfur, Politics and the War on Terror, forthcoming from Pantheon in January.
On July 14, after much advance publicity and fanfare, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court applied for an arrest warrant for the president of Sudan, Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir, on charges that included genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. Important questions of fact arise from the application as presented by the prosecutor. But even more important is the light this case sheds on the politics of the "new humanitarian order."
The conflict in Darfur began as a civil war in 1987-89, before Bashir and his group came to power. It was marked by indiscriminate killing and mass slaughter on both sides. The language of genocide was first employed in that conflict. The Fur representative at the May 1989 reconciliation conference in El Fasher pointed to their adversaries and claimed that "the aim is a total holocaust and no less than the complete annihilation of the Fur people and all things Fur." In response the Arab representative traced the origin of the conflict to "the end of the '70s when...the Arabs were depicted as foreigners who should be evicted from this area of Dar Fur."
The ICC prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, has uncritically taken on the point of view of one side in this conflict, a side that was speaking of a "holocaust" before Bashir came to power, and he attributes far too much responsibility for the killing to Bashir alone. He goes on to speak of "new settlers" in today's Darfur, suggesting that he has internalized this partisan perspective.
At the same time, the prosecutor speaks in ignorance of history: "AL BASHIR...promoted the idea of a polarization between tribes aligned with him, whom he labeled 'Arabs' and...the Fur, Masalit and Zaghawa...derogatory [sic] referred to as 'Zurgas' or 'Africans'." The racialization of identities in Darfur has its roots in the British colonial period. As early as the late 1920s, the British tried to organize two confederations in Darfur: one Arab, the other black (Zurga). Racialized identities were incorporated into the census and provided the frame for government policy. It is not out of the blue that the two sides in the 1987-89 civil war described themselves as Arab and Zurga. If anything, the evidence shows that successive Sudanese governments--Bashir's included--looked down on all Darfuris, non-Arab Zurga as well as Arab nomads.
Having falsely attributed to Bashir the racialization of the conflict, Moreno-Ocampo focuses on two consequences of the conflict in Darfur: ethnic cleansing through land-grabbing and atrocities in the camps. He attributes both to Bashir. He is again wrong. The land-grabbing has been a consequence of three different, if related, causes. The first is the colonial system, which reorganized Darfur as a series of tribal homelands, designating the largest for settled peasant tribes and none for fully nomadic tribes. The second is environmental degradation: according to the United Nations Environment Program, the Sahara expanded by 100 kilometers in four decades; this process reached a critical point in the mid-1980s, pushing all tribes of North Darfur, Arab and non-Arab, farther south, onto more fertile Fur and Masalit lands. This in turn led to a conflict between tribes with homelands and those without them. The imperative of sheer survival explains in part the unprecedented brutality of the violence in every successive war since 1987-89. The third cause came last: the brutal counterinsurgency unleashed by the Bashir regime in 2003-04 in response to an insurgency backed up by peasant tribes.
It is not just the early history of the conflict that the prosecutor is poorly informed about. In his eagerness to build a case, Moreno-Ocampo glosses over recent history as well. He charges Bashir with following up the mass slaughter of 2003-04 with attrition by other means in the camps: "He did not need bullets. He used other weapons: rape, hunger and fear." This claim flies in the face of evidence from UN sources in Darfur, quoted by Julie Flint in the London Independent, that the death rate in the camps came down to around 200 a month from early 2005, less than in South Sudan or in the poor suburbs of Khartoum.
The point of the prosecutor's case is to connect all consequences in Darfur to a single cause: Bashir. Moreno-Ocampo told journalists in The Hague, "What happened in Darfur is a consequence of Bashir's will." The prosecution of Bashir comes across as politicized justice. As such, it will undermine the legitimacy of the ICC and almost certainly will not help solve the crisis in Darfur. It is perhaps understandable that a prosecutor in a rush would gloss over all evidence that might undermine his case. But we must not. A workable solution to the conflict requires that all its causes be understood in their full complexity.
Darfur was the site of mass deaths in 2003-04. World Health Organization sources--still the most reliable available information on mortality levels then--trace these deaths to two major causes: roughly 80 percent to drought-related diarrhea and 20 percent to direct violence. There is no doubt that the perpetrators of violence should be held accountable, but when and how are political decisions that cannot belong to the ICC prosecutor. More than the innocence or guilt of the president of Sudan, it is the relationship between law and politics--including the politicization of the ICC--that poses a wider issue, one of greatest concern to African governments and peoples.

|Find A Panel Producer
With none of the transportation or bureaucratic hurdles of the modular system nor settlement issues of log construction, panelization offers builders a way to dry-in structures quickly in a conventional way that is easy to understand for other trades with the benefit of nearly limitless design.
Plus, the cost of the panel package from their producer gives builders a predictable portion of the project to hang their hat on when bidding.
For these and other reasons, panelization is the most widely used form of systems building in todayâs construction market because of its time savings, design flexibility and variety ofapplications in the field. The majority of production builders use factory-made components to frame their homes. (See sidebar on Component Construction.) Multifamily developers, moreover, have long ago switched to panelization to speed their cycle times and get the units on the market sooner.
Some builders remain skeptical that panelization is faster or more efficient than site building, since a good crew of framers can move like the wind when motivated by money and gallons of Mountain Dew. Has there ever been side-by-side comparison?
In 1996, the Wood Truss Council of America(WTCA) teamed with the BSC of the NAHB for Framing the American Dream. Two identical 2,600-sq.ft. houses were constructed in the parking lot outside the Houston Astrodome. One house was site-built, the other used panel technology.
The two homes dramatically demonstrated the advantages of panelization, including a 16% overall savings in labor and material costs. Component or panel-built structures typically use 26% less wood, saving valuable lumber; they require 37% less construction time, enabling builders to complete the structure faster and thereby save on interest and financing costs; and they are fully engineered and constructed in afactory setting, so all doors, floors, windows and walls are plumb. This dramatically reduces the amount of callbacks. Because the wood used in the factory is often kiln dried and the lumber is not exposed to the elements for long, this reduces the amount of nail pops, warping and cupping thatâs seen in site building.

I like meeting new people but it's hard for me due to my social anxiety. I've been trying to come out of my shell but I just need a little help. I love to help people with their problems and I love to listen. I love knowing that I made a difference in someone else's life.

California nurses and medical marijuana - page 4
We had an interesting topic in discussion today about how the State Board Of Nursing is pro medical marijuana. For many people suffering from chronic pain it's a great alternative to narcotics -... Read More
0Mar 23, '13 by delivernSo far, State Boards of Nursing still do not allow any positive test for TCH. there is no allowance for a medical mj card. I have uncontrolled migraines and I'm going insane, but I can't even try that option. I value my license too much. I would love to fight it, but how do we even try without jeapordizing our careers? I can get an rx for all kinds of pain killers, thank goodness imitrex works best. I don't take mind altering drugs while at work. If pain is that bad, go home! BUT.... I know nurses that have. I know people with chronic pain that don't seem altered when they take their pain meds. are they? I don't know. You test positive for day, but they could do a blood test to check levels to see if you are actually impaired at work.
maybe someday this will make more sense. Out of all the drugs for pain control, anxiety, etc, I don't think MJ is the worst thing!

1May 27, '13 by losbozosInteresting topic. I've wondered this for awhile, now. Although I feel anyone w/ a THC medical card should be allowed to exercise their right to intake, I also feel no medical professional should go to work impaired. Rarely (& years ago) I have imbibed & could not imagine going to work... or even wanting to, in that condition. That said, how could one prove they are not impaired if drug tested? No matter the legal substance found to be positive? Taking a med at bedtime is way different than just prior to work. And just to throw an off-topic comment, how many night shifters have gone to work "impaired" from lack of sleep?
0Jan 18, '14 by mellowdude, EMT-PI agree, smoking up before work is a bad idea. I couldn't function on it. It sucks but sometimes you have to suck up the pain. 12 hours would be a long time to deal with it. Just remember, when you get home you can smoke yourself to la la land. I'm curious to know if RNs can smoke up in Colorado and Washington state. I know it is legal but I'm sure there are some policies at work.
0Nov 25, '14 by db2xsAs nurses, I would like to think we can use sound and logical judgment. Like anything that can impair judgment--marijuana, prescription narcotics medication, etc.--don't take it before going to work. I take muscle relaxers for chronic pain and I definitely don't go to work right after taking my medication. Not only would it affect my driving (another risk I am not willing to take), but it definitely makes me feel different at work (I tried it once and never again).
And sure, some people do get high before work, but it is a slippery slope in our field. If we worked in catering or computer graphics, that is something else. But there are other people's lives in our hands. I say don't do it. Take as much THC or vicodin or ativan all you want on your off hours.

Hi ladies I hope u can help me. I have a 4 month old daughter and since she was about a 1 month old she has had eczema. She has it on her face, arms, legs and neck. But in the elbow joints of her arms and the creses of her legs it flares up. It gets bright red and oozes. Our pedi prescribed us hydrocortazone 2.5 percent and told us to use cetaphil 2-3 times a day. I hate using the hydrocortazone but we have been for a month straight and I just don't know what to do. We were told to use it for 14 days and then stop. So we used it and the rash never went away but it turned to a very light pink and was not oozing at all. Also she seemed not to cry as much. The day we stopped using it she cried all day. Nothing could cheer her up. She even cried in my arms. And the next day her arm and leg creses were oozing so bad that the side of her shirt was soacked. We took her back to the pedi and they told us to use it again 2 times a day. And since then we have but everytime we stop using it within a day it flares us so bad. I don't know what else to do. I don't want to use the cream at all but I know a month straight is way too long. Cetaphil does help to keep her skin not as dry but it does not help with the flare ups and ooze. We have also tried aquaphor. And it made it worse. Please help me. I'm so lost and most of my days consist of crying and praying for the ecxema to go away. Is there anything else I can try? Any cream I can buy for her? We have a appointment with a dermatolagist but we have to wait another month. I don't know why so long. I was going to try cerave and aveno ecxema for baby but I would love ur ladies insights as well. Also she is on only formula. I don't think she is allergic to dairy because there is no blood in her diaper but at this point I don't know. I will take any advice u ladies have. Thank u so much.
please help me with these flare ups-UPDATED in comment.
I use Hydrocortinsone 2.5% (prescription) mixed 1 to 1 with vanicream. My pediatric derm said that combo has the same concentration of non-prescription hydrocortisone but I thinkmaybe it's better because it's mixed with moisturizer. I use it twice a day most days. I didn't want to use it that much either, but it's better than watching her suffer. The derm was not worried about using it long term either, said they woundn't prescribe it if it thinned the skin (which is what I'd heard.) She said the concentration is too low for those issues. I also give my girl a prescribed antihistimene because she was itching herself bloody. Good luck.
It is horrible! I know..
My son is almost 3 years old and I remember when it started. I tried hydrocortisone, cetaphil and a bunch of different lotions to see what would work.
Nothing worked! I decided to bring him to see a naturopath. He put him on a elimination diet, fish oil, vitamins... It helped... it didn't heal him.
A while ago, I had to rush my son to the ER because he couldn'd breath! He was not even sick! I heard that eczema is somehow related to asthma. I was devastated! I started reading a lot about healing from the inside out.
For the last few months, I started cutting processed food ( read... CHEMICALS!) from our diet and bathing him al least 3 times a weeks in oats. (google oatmeal bath) HIs skin has never been so clear! If he eats a little bit of chemicals/ fake food.... it comes back right away!
I am 33 weeks pregnant and I am trying my best to only eat real food hoping it would prevent my LO from this terrible rashes!
Oh! The changes I made besides food ...
I make my own laundry detergent
I use vinager as softner ( it doesn't smell, trust me!)
I only clean my house with vinager, baking soda, mild detergent.
I pray to the Lord that He would guide you finding relief for your precious daughter. God bless you both!
(I just wanted to share what has been working for my son.)
go see an allergist, or a derm, or both. my son kept getting "eczema" starting at about 3mos of age. then they started oozing and then getting infected. desonide is a type of topical steroid that like hydrocortisone is not supposed to be overused and i kept having to use it after the 2 weeks. turns out, he has a blood disorder that causes severe skin rashes. took a year to diagnose and maintain it.
Mom to Jaden born 9-2-10: fibular hemimelia and incorrect growth plate of the tibias. Hoping and praying for a medical miracle for my lil guy.
That is what I do to keep both of my kids skin clear!
Thank u so much ladies. so far i am still going through this battle. we took her to an allergist and derm. we are waiting for the allergy test result to come back since they did a blood work instead of a skin prick test. the derm was no help and made me feel worse. i need to find someone that will look at her. the derm came in with a prescription pad, didnt even take her out of her carseat to look at her and wrote us a prescription for desonide 0.05% and mupirocin2% she told us to use it together. even though i wasnt sure i figured anything is worth a try. she told us to use it for 3-4 weeks. well we are on week 3 and its back and worse! i feel like the steriods do make it better like its almost gone when i first start using them but then all of a sudden it comes back worse. the only thing they do it stop it from oozing. i dont know what else to do. im trying to find a new derm. and just praying she will be ok. today i am going to stop using the steriods because now im scared they are making it worse or her body is use to them and thats why it came back and is not helping her anymore. all i know if i do not know what to do. ive tried it all. i only use free and clear detergent. cetaphil, cerave, even the washes u ladies talked about. her body seems to get better but the folds of her arms and legs wont. it will get slightly better then the next morning its like she is on fire again. i keep mittens on her and she screams because she wants to put her hands in her mouth since she is teething. is there any thing else u ladies can tell me to do. i will try anything.
My 8 month old son also has eczema since he was about 1 month old.
The severity varies, some days are a little worse than others. We have used hydrocortisone 1% (over-the-counter) only 4 times in the last 8 months and we work very hard at keeping it mild. Here's what we're doing:
-got him tested for allergies (skin test was done and he is allergic to peanuts, soy, eggs, rice, pets, dust) . . . so, we avoid all of this. We have an air purifier on at all times because it's impossible to dust my house all the time.
-biokleen (free & clear) laundry detergent
-free/clear everything: handsoaps, shampoo/conditioner for us. I also tell family members who are gonna babysit him to use free/clear soap/shampoo before they come by. And I encourage them not to wear perfumes around him.
-bath 2-3 a week, we use African black soap (ordered from coastalscents.com) it's all natural ingredients. It looks funny but seems to help his skin. This was recommended from a friend whose children also has eczema
-alternate Nutiva extra virgin coconut oil with Burt's bees fragrance free shea butter lotion, and lotion all the time (every 2-3 hrs if needed . . . did I say we work hard?)
-dermasilk (awesome product, he wears it all the time on his arms. It has antimicrobial properties built into the fabric). It's kinda pricey and can only be ordered from Europe or Canada but I love it because you see results.
-keep house and car at cool temperatures, if we go anywhere, we carry a fan to make sure he doesn't get hot because we've noticed that his eczema flares up where he sweats.
-for really itchy moments, we put cold compress (washcloth dipped in iced water) to the areas and helps him get through the itching, then apply more lotion
-100% organic cotton clothing/blankets
-we took away all polyester (this maybe going a little overboard but we are willing to do whatever it takes to keep his skin from getting worse and he has never had any bleeding or oozing issues)
-keep his nails trimmed at all times
-he sleeps next to us, so if he is itchy at night we are there to stop him and put lotion or cold compress on him. This was very hard to do and everyone was losing sleep but to us it was worth it. But now he sleeps 5-6 hrs at a time until he wakes up itchy so it's way better than what he was doing before. We tried socks on his hands but now he easily takes them off.
-he doesn't touch the carpet which we are in the process of switching to wood floors
-eat lots of avocado . . . has omega 3 which is very good for the skin so, I try to sneak in avocado where I can
-we make all of his meals so we know exactly what he is getting. Keep a food and activity (if goes outside, if he baths, if meds were used) diary and trial foods for at least 4 days
-we use chlorine free diapers (seventh generation brand) and weleda diaper cream at nights because he stays in his diapers longer. We've never had any issues with diaper rashes but I think it's because we treat it prophylactically.
-we changed the showerhead and use one with chlorine filter
I know this seems like a lot but it gives you choices on what you can do. At times it seems like it's hopeless but for us we feel better knowing that we are doing something about it and not relying on medication. We are trying to avoid any medication if possible and I am a neonatal nurse and know the side effects of hydrocortisone. Also, lots and lots of prayers. I know what you're going through and it's very tough but you are doing your best. Keep praying, the tough times will pass.

Sneak Peek at Twist for Summer
Two weeks ago on the first of May, newsletter subscribers were invited to take a look at a preview for the upcoming summer issue. (If you aren't a newsletter subscriber yet, you can get on the list by filling out your email in the sidebar on the left. We only send newsletters out once a month, or when it's really newsworthy. We promise)
Now that the preview page has been running for a couple of weeks, we're happy to let you in on it too. Bookmark the page and check everyday for a new peek at what's to come for our summer issue. It's super fun, packed with great summer knits, and has a couple of surprises we're really excited about. Just you wait!
NHS&W New and Notables
Julia here.
While at the New Hampshire Sheep and Wool, I saw a few lovely little things I thought you'd like to know about.
One: Silversmith and Friend to Fiber Artists (an unofficial title), Leslie Wind, has just created silver and bronze darning needles in three sizes. They are lovely to behold, and quickly inspire a mental flipping of the WIP file for a sweater in need of finishing. These, the small size, are about 3 inches long. Here's Leslie's site for more information.
Two: these baskets from The Children's Initiative, a non-profit that supports health care in developing countries. Made in Vietnam, the sale of these baskets supports the organization's good works. Their value to knitters is, I think, immediately obvious. I saw people leaving with multiples.
Three: a new book, Fiber Gathering, by Joanne Seiff, has been enjoying attention on a virtual blog tour recently, and Joanne was at the festival on Sunday to sign copies and answer questions. The book is a loving tribute to why we wool lovers gather, explains with enthusiastic prose and beautiful photographs the merits of each of the major regional festivals, offers a primer on some aspects of wool love that are the province of fiber festivals (such as fleece skirting and washing), and has 25 projects to get your needles going. Check it out, and catch festival fever.
New Hampshire Sheep and Wool
Julia here. I made it to New Hampshire Sheep and Wool this past weekend, and saw some lovely things.
Lisa's (aka Tsock Tsarina) chorus line of fantastic socks in the Holiday Yarns booth.
Drop spindlers devoted to vivid color
Temptations not limited to the fiber variety
Alison in a new sweater design she just published, called Rapunzel.
Tribal badges and
familiar faces. (Claudia never makes it to New Hampshire because she's usually in recovery from Maryland, but this year, we got to see her instead!)
It was a lovely day, too hot for big wool sweaters, but perfect for enjoying the company of fellow knitters and considering yarn purchases. Barb Parry was celebrating her new book, Teach Yourself Visually Hand Dyeing which I heartily recommend if you are at all interested in the subject. I hope to post a more explicit review of the book when I am finished giving it the once over, but like Deb Menz's inspirational book, Color in Spinning, I may never be done with it.
Thanks to everyone who said hi and grabbed a Twist Collective button from me. It was a fun day.
Props from Vogue Knitting
The new issue of Vogue Knitting is on the newsstands, and lo, there we are in boldface on page 20 in the "Made in Canada" column by Lee Ann Balazuc, represented by a photograph of Angela Hahn's beautiful Primrose Path sweater. We are delighted to be recognized by the big guys, so thanks to Lee Ann and the VK folks for the nod.

Class of 2002 Fall 2014 Letter
Fall 2014
Greetings, Class of 2002!
I (Sarah) hope all of you are having a wonderful fall season. If you were able to make it back to Luther for Homecoming, I trust you found great weather, fall color, reconnections with people and places, and the excitement of the inauguration of new Luther President Dr. Paula J. Carlson. The excitement reminds me of when President Torgersen was inaugurated during our sophomore year, and how fortunate we were to be able to experience a momentous, relatively rare event in the history of Luther College!

Willi Bredel
Willi Bredel (2 May 1901 – 27 October 1964) was a German writer and president of the Akademie der Künste. Born in Hamburg, he was a pioneer of socialist realist literature.
Soon after the Nazis seized power in 1933, Bredel was imprisoned at Fuhlsbüttel concentration camp. He was released in spring 1934.[1] Fleeing from Nazi Germany, he went to Czechoslovakia and then Moscow, where he lived at the Hotel Lux. He published Die Prüfung (1934), a novel describing the Nazi concentration camp, which was reprinted several times and translated into other languages.[1] He also published accounts of his experiences in the Deutsche Zentral Zeitung,[1] a German-language newspaper published in Moscow.
Bredel took part in the Spanish Civil War as commissar of the Thälmann Battalion[2] as well as the Second World War, in which he fought on the Soviet side. After the war, he returned to Germany as part of the Sobottka Group,[3] sent to lay the groundwork for the Soviet occupation of Mecklenburg. He later lived in East Germany and died in Berlin.

Just saw Dan Farr and Randy Anderson demonstrating Genesis monsters on episode 13 of "Making Monsters" on TV.
I'm sooo confused… I've come to grasp a little of the nature of reality and the answer to life, the universe, and everything. I even have an inkling as to who and what I am. Auuummmmm… But please, please, who the hell are you? And why are you trampling my roses?
All scientific and philosophical inquiries into reality, ultimately must face the nature of consciousness.
"Only a little monster."

"The Overland Adventure Ride"
powered by Beanery Brewing!
A 51-mile dirt road timed bicycle adventure ride featuring 5400 feet of climbing, seven sections of "Vermont pavé" (unmaintained ancient public roads), a beautiful village downtown start/finish and an awesome street party afterwards. It's the ultimate overland adventure ride. Open dirt roads, epic, amazing scenery and an epic course unlike any you've ever ridden before, all within a beautiful Vermont pastoral setting.
The purpose of this ride is to promote the wonderful world of overland adventure riding. Experience what it's like to ride your bike on roads that are not only incredibly beautiful but are, most importantly, largely free of hostile car traffic. Throw in some ancient unmaintained roads for technical challenge and the real adventure begins!
The Overland has now partnered with Sustainable Woodstock, a local charity supporting all forms of local energy conservation, planet-friendly sustainable economic programs and local youth cycling projects in the Woodstock area. The Overland will be donating a portion of every entry fee to Sustainable Woodstock.
(500 rider field limit so register early!)
The Overland is an open ride so anyone can enter. From the more aggressive riders gunning for the win to the local biker out for the challenge, everyone will start together in downtown historic Woodstock Village. The riders will embark at 9 am sharp on the amazingly picturesque "ronde" course meandering through some of the most lovely countryside in New England.
Six-time National Cyclocross Champion, Tim Johnson, will be riding The Overland!!! How often do you get to line up against a rider of this caliber in the very same race?!
And this is where The Overland stands alone (at least here in the US): pavé! The course features seven sections of unmaintained public roads we lovingly refer to as "Vermont pavé." The pavé sections vary in difficulty, but all are fully rideable on a standard cyclocross or gravel racing bike with low gearing.
There is one particularly difficult section of pavé we are nicknaming the "Koppenberg" after the famous climb in the Tour of Flanders. Again, fully rideable, but nevertheless very challenging, and there are five full sections of pavé after this separated by fast, flatter dirt road stretches where riders will naturally regroup and classic road race tactics will come into play.
The riders will descend into South Royalton village at nearly the half-way point where they will be greeted with an amazing sag station sponsored by Worthy Burger and Vermont Law School with a water and shuttle service provided by the KMS Cycling Team.
After gorging themselves at the sag, the riders will hit the most challenging pavé section in the ride, the "Arenberg Forest," named after the famous brutal pavé section in Paris-Roubaix:
Immediately after which the riders will emerge onto a brief section of tarmac where they'll sprint it out roadie-style for the familiar-for-some KOM sprint.
Then the riders will descend on pavement into Barnard village where they'll be treated to the second sag stop at about the 34 mile mark. This sag will be all about the locally made maple syrup product as Woods Syrup, based right in Barnard, is sponsoring same.
And while the riders are out on the road, there will be some awesome kids' races in Woodstock Village sponsored by the Red Wagon Toy Company located at 41 Central Street, Woodstock (see VOGP Schedule of Events for details)!
Once the riders arrive back in Woodstock Village, they'll be cheered on as they make their way up the dreaded 20% gradient DOUBLEDAY HILL, the seventh and final section of pavé! What'll make this section so thrilling is that the Beanery Brewing beer pavilion is located right at the base of the hill, so there will be throngs of spectators encouraging everyone to charge up the last climb of the ride!
And to reward everyone, we'll have a huge post-ride party with local food and beverage sponsored by Vermont Smoke and Cure and Worthy Kitchen. Not only will you experience the best bike riding of your life, you'll experience that best food and drink as well!
The Overland is a ride built on grit and determination.
But with a large dollop of fun and soul thrown in for good measure.
Come to Woodstock on Saturday 8/22 and join our featured pro, Tim Johnson, for a 1.5-2 hour no-drop recon ride covering the beginning and ending portions of the course, including pavé sections 1, 2, 3 and 7! The ride will leave at 2 pm from the Woodstock Inn & Resort lobby. After the ride, join us at the Worthy Kitchen at the east end of Woodstock Village at 6 pm where you can also register for the ride!

CLICK THE FOLLOWING FOR A DETAILED PARKING AND COURSE MAP OF: Woodstock Village
What kind of bike ride is this? Road ride? Cross ride? Mountain bike ride? It's a little bit of all three. It's an overland bike ride.
What percentage of the course is dirt? About 90%. The pavement sections are purely transitional with the exception of the 3k KOM and the downtown finish course.
What type of bike is optimal for the Overland: A cross bike or gravel specific bike with at least 28c tires and low gearing (34×32 is a nice lowest gear). You may need a mountain bike rear derailleur to make it work. For those new to dirt road riding, a hard tail mountain bike is perfect. Road bikes on as big a tire as you can fit are third best. Or, if you really want to know what the absolute ideal bike is for pretty much all gravel racing, it's the Drummond Cycles custom dirt/gravel bike.
Is there a bike shop in town in case I need to have my bike tuned or pick up some a spare tube and CO2? Yes, Woodstock Sports, located at 30 Central Street, next to the start/finish line, will be open and ready for business. In fact, they're a major event sponsor and will be providing water to all the riders!
Where should I park? Anywhere you can find space BUT NOT WHERE THERE'S A CONE RESERVING THE PARKING SPACE (downtown shopping and church district). Lincoln Street is a great place to park (see village map link above). Of course, if you come up the night before and stay in Woodstock village, you can just ride your bike to the start and home from the finish. We highly encourage this as Woodstock Village is a gorgeous place to visit and it's sidewalk sale weekend!
Where are the bathrooms? There's the Woodstock village comfort station located in the Mechanic Street parking lot (right on the course, just before the footbridge section) and, thanks to HB Energy in Springfield, VT, we'll also have 12 porta johns located near the start/finish line near registration and Woodstock Sports.
Where's number pick-up/registration? Register online by clicking on the links above or below. Number pick-up and day-of registration will be at Woodstock Sports at 30 Central Street, Woodstock next to the start/finish line. Registration will open at 7 am on race day. We will also have number pickup and race-day registration from 6-8 pm at the Worthy Kitchen restaurant on Saturday, Aug 22. Ride-day registration fee is $80, so it's best to register online! [All race day registrations will go directly to the KMS Cycling Team fund].
How will you start so many people at once? The course is open euro-style with moto protection up front so there's lots of time and space to move up.
Will all of the intersections have marshals? No. We'll have police closure in the villages and some marshals at the busier paved road intersections, but, other than that, we'll have marking chalk on the ground marking the course turns and some arrow signage. All riders will be required to obey general road signs. And keep your head up for the rare oncoming vehicles on the dirt roads.
How will the course be marked? The course will be marked ENTIRELY with colored marking chalk on the road and some red arrow signs. You'll see a chalked arrow 100 meters from a turn, then another one 50 meters from a turn, then a big arrow going through the turn. The arrows will be tough to miss and they'll be tenacious enough to last through a rainstorm.
Will there be other prizes to win? Yes. We'll have locally-made prizes for the top three mens and womens podium finishers as well as special KOM winner prizes.
Will every finisher get a time? We'll keep timing open until 3 pm. Everyone finishing prior to 3 pm will receive a formal time and placing. We'll also break the times out into 10 year age groups.
Will there be support vehicles for spare wheels? Yes and no. There will be 4×4 support vehicles on the course, but mainly for emergencies and major mechanical issues. For punctures, you're on your own. Because the riders will be pretty spread out on the course, there's no feasible way to run wheel support vehicles. So leave the tubulars at home and ride some good, solid clincher cross tires aired to at least 55 psi. Anything less and you're risking pinch flats. Also, don't forget to bring a spare tube and air source and you should practice your changes to minimize time losses in case of a puncture.
Will the ride be canceled for inclement weather? No. The ride will go off in any weather. Some say the worse the better!
Do I need a license to ride? No, this is an open timed fondo style ride. Anyone can enter.
Can I race to raise money for another charity? Absolutely, by all means.
What if I can't finish? No problem. Many will not be able to finish. We'll have bail out points all along the course where you can cut back to Woodstock (just turn south on any road and you'll end up in Woodstock!). We only ask that you do not cross the finish line upon your return to town as it will cause problems with timing.
Can I walk the pave sections if I can't ride them? Of course. In fact, it's advisable if you're new to the dirt road scene. The pave sections are relatively short (most less than 1 k), so it's no big deal to walk portions of them or even all of them.
Will there be sag stops for those just racing to finish? Absolutely. We'll have our Worthy Burger sag stop in S. Royalton village and our Woods Maple Syrup sag stop in Barnard Village. Leave the processed ride food at home and embrace the Vermont way by eating locally-produced real food.
Will there be an awards ceremony? Yes, we'll hold an awards ceremony at 1:30 pm near the beer tent on High Street.
Where's the food after the race? We'll have loads of free chow being served by our generous race sponsors in the vendor area on High Street located near the base of Doubleday hill. Just present your race number to the vendors for your free chow. Then, after you're finished cheering for your fellow racers on the finishing circuit, make your way down to Bentley's Restaurant for our post-race celebration!
Is there a host hotel? Yes, the Woodstock Inn & Resort has special room rates for Saturday and Sunday nights.
Does the race benefit any organization? Yes, the race benefits our junior cycling program, the Killington Mountain School Cycling Team and we've partnered with Sustainable Woodstock to help all forms of energy conservation and sustainable economics in the Woodstock region.
How can I sponsor the event? Click here for details.

Brazen, publicity-seeking hackers on attack spree
nepal Can you be famous if no one knows your name? A new band of hackers is giving it its best shot, trumpeting its cyber-capers in an all-sirens-flashing publicity campaign.
Lulz Security has stolen mountains of personal data in a dozen different hacks, embarrassing law enforcement on both sides of the Atlantic while boasting about the stunts online.
The group, whose name draws on Internetspeak for "laughs," has about 270,000 followers on the messaging site Twitter. In an online interview via Skype with The Associated Press late Friday, one LulzSec member said the group's current hacking campaign was about attacking "the common oppressors" - which he identified as "banks, governments (and) law enforcement."
"Not all of them of course, but they know who they are," he said.
The hacker refused to reveal any personal details beyond identifying himself as male, but he proved membership in LulzSec by posting a prearranged message to the group's popular Twitter account following the interview. The hacker agreed to the online interview in response to an email request sent by the AP to the group's website registrant.
The group may cause serious damage, but its online persona often veers into wackiness. LulzSec's Twitter mascot is a black-and-white cartoon dandy that looks like a cross between Mr. Peanut and The New Yorker magazine's monocle man. Its rambling messages are peppered with references to YouTube sensation Rebecca Black, the Dungeons and Dragons role playing game and tongue-in-cheek conspiracy theories.
One of LulzSec's victims says the group sets itself apart from the rest of the hacker underground with its posturing and bragging on Twitter.
"Most of the hacker groups that are pretty well known out there ... don't really like to flaunt their findings. They'll do it among their peers, but not typically the public," said Karim Hijazi, a security expert whose emails were ransacked by the hacking group last month.
LulzSec made its name by defacing the site of the U.S. Public Broadcasting Service, or PBS, with an article claiming that rapper Tupac Shakur was still alive. It has since claimed hacks on major entertainment companies, FBI partner organizations, a pornography website and the Arizona Department of Public Safety, whose documents were leaked to the Web late Thursday.
In the interview, the hacker promised more embarrassing leaks, saying LulzSec was already sitting on at least 5 gigabytes of government and law enforcement data from across the world, which it planned to release in the next three weeks. The claim couldn't be independently verified. In the past, the group has targeted U.S. and British government sites.
Many past attacks have yielded sensitive information including usernames and passwords - nearly 38,000 of them, in the case of Sony Pictures. Others appear to have been just for kicks. In a stunt last week, LulzSec directed hundreds of telephone calls to the customer service line of Magnets.com, a New Jersey-based manufacturer of custom refrigerator magnets.
LulzSec uses a similar technique to temporarily bring down websites, flooding them with bogus Internet traffic. This is an old hacker standby that doesn't require much sophistication. Members also break in to sites to steal data. That requires more skill and often involves duping employees into revealing passwords.

Originally written on Fox Sports Kansas City | Last updated 2/17/13
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Former Royals slugger Mike Sweeney says that while he loved his 13 years with the team, he believes he ultimately failed during his time in Kansas City. He failed the fans, the organization and team owner David Glass, he said. "The ultimate goal each year is to get to the playoffs and win the World Series," Sweeney told FOXSportsKasnasCity.com. "And we didn't do that while I was in Kansas City. "So, in that regard, I failed at my job. My obligation as a player was to get us to the post-season and I failed at that. That's why I feel my time with the Royals was unfulfilled." Sweeney, who recently was inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, said, however, that he doesn't know what more he could have done. "I busted my butt all the time," he said. "I gave 100 percent. I know I got injured a lot but I couldn't do anything to change that unfortunately. I wish I could have. But I have no regrets about my effort. "I just wish somehow the results would have be...
