"Our gift to future generations of Americans must
be a legacy of good health. This Museum will be that legacy."
William A. Haseltine, PhD
National Health Museum
Testimony before US Congress
May, 2001
Though only founded in 1996, the National Health
Museum is the ongoing result of decades of aspirations and
efforts by individuals who share a dream of a place for learning
and inspiration about health at the national Mall.
The Museums Chairman Emeritus C. Everett
Koop, MD first envisioned the institution while he was serving
as US Surgeon General from 1981 to 1989. From his office overlooking
the Mall, Dr. Koop would witness countless young people from
across the United States visiting Washington on school trips
every day. While at the Mall, these young Americans could
learn about the wonders of aviation, encounter the glories
of art, and experience Americas pioneering history,
all through visits to the many Smithsonian museums; yet they
would learn nothing about that issue most relevant to them:
their own personal health.
What was needed, Dr. Koop and others believed,
was a new modern museum at the Mall to fill this void; a place
that would educate and inspire these young people and,
indeed, individuals of all ages to achieve lives of
better health and wellbeing. Many years before, a medical
museum with historic human anatomical and Civil War medical
collections had drawn large crowds before departing its location
at the Mall in the 1960s. In spite of its popularity, Koop
envisioned the new museum as substantially different from
the "human curio shop" model of the past. He and
a group of similarly minded supporters began crafting plans
for an entirely new institution, one with a forward-thinking
mission that would seek to empower individuals to take greater
responsibility for their own health and wellbeing.
In October 1996, the National Health Museum,
Inc. was formally established. Incorporated in the District
of Columbia as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the Museum
was conceived not as a Federal entity, but as a private institution
that would depend on volunteers for its funding and governance.
With the support of a board comprised of leaders from the
private sector and public service, museum planning began in
earnest. Using seed money provided by supporters, the Museum
hired its first president, assembled a staff, and began planning
its future. In 1997, the US Congress passed legislation stating
that the Museum should be located "on or near the (national)
Mall on land owned by the Federal government, the District
of Columbia, or both."
The Museum first began meeting its mission through
active educational programming in 1999 when it acquired Access
Excellence, an award-winning website for high school health
and biology teachers. Generously donated to the Museum by
Genentech, a biotechnology company, Access Excellence has
grown increasingly popular under the Museums operation.
As the Museums "virtual identity," it has
garnered numerous awards and frequent recognition as an inarguable
leader in the online educational arena. Its audience has also
expanded markedly in recent years, with over 1.2 million webpages
currently downloaded from the site each month. Plans are now
underway to enhance the site and further expand its audience
and educational offerings.
A milestone in the history of the National Health
Museum occurred in 2000, when renowned scientist, educator,
and corporate executive William
A. Haseltine, PhD, became Chairman of the Museums
Board of Trustees. Founder and CEO of Human Genome Sciences,
Inc., a leading biotechnology company, Dr. Haseltine is an
acknowledged pioneer in the field of genome research, as well
as a generous philanthropist for a variety of educational
causes. His acceptance of the role of Chairman has provided
the Museum with indispensable direction and energy at a crucial
moment in its history. Under his active and involved leadership,
the Museum has experienced extensive growth and important
progress in its efforts to secure a site at the national Mall.

I have a 26" tv downstairs and a portable 14" tv upstairs...we never ever watch tv...i have blocked all access to it...we use the tv`s to play console games or dvds or music...my reason for not watching tv because I believe it brainwashes people...especially children...the difference between watching a tv program plus the adds etc etc, and from playing a game or watching a dvd is CHOICE....with advertisements and most tv programs you have no knowledge or choice what is being fed into your brain...with games and dvd`s you do...and yes i`m fully aware that the same thing can happen with games and dvd`s...however, the difference is, that tv and the media work hand in hand..best o buddies...if you know what suggestive, connonative, hypnotic feedback means you will understand what I believe the way I do....is there anyone who does this too?
We also do not have tv reception but do have dvd's and games.
It wasn't because we felt tv brainwashes people that we made a change but I have certainly seen a change in our habits. When we had tv reception we would watch things just because they were on. We weren't very selective at all.
Kim ~mom to one awesome dd (12)
We occasionally watch dvd's on the computer. No games in our house; or I should say once in a blue moon when daddy caves in and helps them. I see games as brain candy.
There is definitely a differnece in watching television programs and ads, and watching a movie. However, I don't think one is totally choosing the input. We don't know what type of subliminal images are embedded in many video programs. We talk about what we watch and what the makers intend. We talk about how watching video programs is a passive activity and more like junk food for the brain. And I try to discuss the content of whatever we are viewing and how it pertains to our family and our philosophy and ideals.
The only time the kiddos get extra screen time is when they are stuck in bed sick. Then we tend to watch reruns of Leave it to Beaver. And even that needs moderating.
Dh and I will watch tv here and there in the evening when the kids are in bed. The kids on the other hand have never watched TV. The only thing my 4 year old ever gets to watch is an occasional DVD of mighty machines. That is maybe once a month or even every other month and when he is really sick. No video games yet for him

DHS Recruiting and Hiring:
DHS Is Generally Filling Mission-Critical Positions, but Could Better Track Costs of Coordinated Recruiting Efforts

What GAO Found
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and selected components are implementing strategies to fill mission-critical occupations (MCO), which are those occupations most critical to an agency's mission. In 2011, the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (D&I)--which coordinates component recruiting efforts--developed the Coordinated Recruiting and Outreach Strategy (CROS). Through the CROS, D&I intends to better coordinate and link component recruiting and outreach efforts to hiring for DHS mission and workforce needs (for all positions, including MCOs), and to leverage resources as well as reduce recruiting costs, among other things. D&I has begun to implement the CROS through various means, including requiring components to develop their own outreach and recruiting plans that align with the CROS. However, D&I has been limited in its ability to implement some elements of the CROS--such as recruiter training--because of budget constraints, according to D&I officials. The components selected for GAO's review--the National Protection and Programs Directorate, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, and U.S. Secret Service (USSS)--have also implemented various strategies to recruit and hire MCOs. In addition, these four components have generally been able to address hiring needs for MCOs. For example, USSS data show that vacancy rates were generally below 3 percent for MCO positions during fiscal years 2010 through 2012. Still, some officials have reported experiencing challenges attracting qualified candidates because of factors such as financial constraints and regional competition, among other things. For example, TSA has been challenged in filling certain positions in some areas where competition for other jobs makes it difficult to attract qualified candidates.
D&I is taking steps to assess implementation of the CROS, but could improve efforts to track recruiting costs. D&I assesses progress in implementing the CROS by tracking and monitoring component performance for six measures, such as compliance with data-tracking requirements. These measures are aligned with the two overarching goals of the CROS; however, they do not include targets to measure DHS's progress in achieving the goals over the period the strategy covers (2012-2017). D&I officials stated that they are gathering baseline data on these measures and plan to use these data to help develop targets in the future. In addition, three of the CROS's six annual measures are associated with its goal of recruiting a highly qualified workforce. However, DHS does not require components to report the information needed to accurately assess component performance for one of these measures--which calls for standardized data tracking of recruiting and outreach activities. D&I has developed a database for components to use to track recruiting efforts and costs, but it does not require that all components use this tool or provide data to DHS in a consistent manner. D&I officials said that since some components have their own tracking systems, they do not want the tracking systems to duplicate efforts. D&I acknowledges the importance of obtaining comprehensive and consistent cost information from components, but has not determined whether and how it will do so. As a result, D&I does not know the total amount of money being spent on recruiting and outreach throughout DHS, nor is it able to fully track component recruiting costs--and therefore cannot measure the results of the second goal in the CROS of optimizing outreach and recruiting resources.
Why GAO Did This Study
With more than 240,000 employees doing diverse jobs, DHS's workforce supports the department's multiple missions to prevent terrorism and enhance security and ensure resilience from disasters, amongst others. Given these missions, it is important that DHS effectively recruit and hire employees with the appropriate skills. Within DHS, the Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer (OCHCO) is responsible for human capital policy development and implementation. GAO has previously reported on DHS's challenges in attracting and retaining a qualified workforce. GAO was asked to assess DHS's recruiting and hiring strategies. This report addresses the extent to which (1) DHS and four selected components have implemented recruiting and hiring strategies to fill MCOs, and (2) DHS has assessed these efforts. To conduct its work, GAO reviewed recruiting strategies and data on MCO hiring and losses, and interviewed officials from OCHCO and the four DHS components selected for this review based on their varieties of MCOs and recruiting strategies. Information from these components cannot be generalized to all of DHS, but provides insights.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that DHS require all components to provide recruiting cost information in a consistent manner. DHS concurred with GAO's recommendation.

Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer (OCHCO) has provided GAO with information in response to this recommendation. On April 2, 2014, we received a copy of a spreadsheet containing data on each DHS component's recruiting costs for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. On July 2, 2014, we received similar recruiting cost data for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014. We reviewed the data and noted that while these data were a helpful step in addressing this recommendation, they did not present information on costs being saved as a result of increased coordination among components. We shared this position with OCHCO officials during a meeting on August 6, 2014. OCHCO officials stated that they could begin working on compiling such information for future iterations of this quarterly spreadsheet. We await DHS's third quarter recruiting data to determine whether the agency has taken this step.
Recommendation: To help ensure that DHS has comprehensive data to help track recruiting costs and coordinated efforts, the Secretary of Homeland Security should direct OCHCO to require all components to provide D&I with recruiting cost information in a consistent manner to allow better tracking of overall recruiting costs and use this information to assess the extent to which recruiting costs are being reduced by components as a result of increased coordination and leveraging resources as called for in the CROS.

Cooking up a storm: Coombes in action during one of the show's challenges.
PETALING JAYA: Ipoh-born MasterChef UK 2014 champion Catherine Chin Coombes was at a loss for words over winning the title with wonton soup and nasi lemak.
"Am so ermmm I have no words! Just am so grateful, so pleased, so chuffed and thank you thank you thank you for liking my food," wrote the 33-year-old mother over her Twitter account.
Coombes, who was sharing her happiness with everyone she knows on Twitter, also paid tribute to her co-finalists Jack Lucas and Luke Owen.
"@jacklucas1 @MasterChef_Luke I love you two, we had so much fun! And I'm so so privileged to cook with you two!!" said Coombes who made a total of 17 tweets after her win.
Coombes lives in Britain with her husband and 18-month-old daughter. She won the final challenge of the 10th series of the annual MasterChef UK reality cooking show, which was aired on BBC One on Friday night, beating Lucas and Owen.
Fans of Coombes urged her to open her own restaurant.
"Please let me know about your restaurant – I honestly think I could eat your food for the rest of my life. Congratulations!" Katy Brand tweeted.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak gave Coombes the thumbs up for showcasing Malaysian-inspired dishes.
"Well done UK Masterchef @WanPingCoombes! Malaysian flavours and talent are truly world-class," he tweeted.
Surprising judges with her three-course meal, Coombes satiated their expectations with her starter of Chinese dumpling wonton soup, main course of nasi lemak and dessert of vanilla and coconut pannacotta.
Coombes' Malaysian-inspired spread earned superlative comments from judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace.
According to British online reports, Torode described Coombes as "a cook's cook" while Wallace quipped: "Rarely have I seen someone whose repertoire can span whole continents."
Comparing her joy of winning to when she gave birth to her daughter Alexa, Coombes reportedly said: "The last time I felt such emotion was when my daughter was born.
"Pure joy and pure bliss that feels incredible. Epic."
Coombes said she first started cooking while studying in Oxford and learnt to recreate her mother's dishes to satisfy her cravings.

UK to Reopen Embassy in Tehran
On June 17, Foreign Secretary William Hague announced that Britain intends to reopen its embassy in Tehran. The embassy has been closed since demonstrators stormed it on Nov. 29, 2011 to protest new British sanctions on Iranian banks. The United Kingdom also closed the Iranian embassy in London and expelled all Iranian diplomats. The following is the full text of Hague's statement.
US and Iranian Religious Leaders Declare Opposition to Weapons of Mass Destruction
On June 14, a group of U.S. bishops and Iranian religious leader issued a joint declaration opposing actions that endanger the health, dignity and welfare of others — including proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The declaration was the result of a dialogue between the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Supreme Council of the Teachers of Qom, Iran's center of religious scholarship. An American delegation visited Iran in March. The following is the full text of the declaration.
US and Iran Leaders on Iraq Crisis
Both Washington and Tehran have indicated openness to working cooperatively to quell the Iraq crisis. The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, a Sunni militant group fighting the Assad regime in Syria, has recently taken significant territory in western Iraq and now threatens both U.S. and Iranian interests in the region. On June 19, President Barack Obama noted that Iran could play a constructive role in Iraq. Previously, President Hassan Rouhani said on June 14 that Iran could consider collaboration with the United States if it "starts confronting terrorist groups in Iraq or elsewhere." Two days later, Secretary of State John Kerry said Washington is open to discussions with Tehran if it is "prepared to do something that is going to respect the integrity and sovereignty of Iraq and ability of the government to reform." The following are excerpted remarks by U.S. and Iranian leaders on the crisis.
President Barack Obama
"Our view is that Iran can play a constructive role if it is helping to send the same message to the Iraqi government that we're sending, which is that Iraq only holds togethernly holds together if it's inclusive and that -- if the interests of Sunni, Shia and Kurd are all respected. If Iran is coming in solely as an armed force on behalf of the Shia and it -- if it is framed in that fashion, then that probably worsens the situation and the prospect for a government formation that would actually be constructive over the long term.
"Just as Iraq's leaders have to make decisions, I think Iran has heard from us. We've indicated to them that it is important to avoid the kinds of steps that might encourage the kind of sectarian splits that might lead to civil war.
"We have deep differences with Iran ... on a whole host of issues. Obviously what's happened in Syria in part is the result of Iran coming in hot and heavy on one side. And you know, Iran obviously should consider the fact that if it is -- if its view of the region is solely through sectarian frames, they could find themselves fighting a whole lot of places. And that's probably not good for the Iranian economy or the Iranian people over the long term either.
"I suspect there are folks in Iran who recognize that. You know, a Iraq in chaos on their borders is probably not in their interests. But old habits die hard. And you know, we'll have to see whether they can take what I think would be a more promise path over the next several days."
June 19, 2014 in a statement
"For all of these reasons, and more, the United States should be seeking to minimize greater Iranian involvement in Iraq right now, not encouraging it. That means rapid, decisive U.S. action to degrade ISIS and halt their offensive in Iraq. And it means dramatically increasing U.S. military assistance and support to moderate opposition forces in Syria that are fighting both ISIS and the Assad regime. The longer we wait to act, the more our Iraqi partners grow dependent on the Iranian regime. That is neither in our interest nor consistent with the values for which we stand."

Report: Easing U.S. Sanctions on Iran
The United States has several ways to suspend or terminate sanction on Iran in the event a final nuclear deal is reached, according to a new Atlantic Council report. But the easiest way for the Obama administration to ease sanctions would be to issue waivers, according to Kenneth Katzman. The administration does not have the power to commit to an outright lifting of sanctions without the involvement of Congress. The following are excerpts from the brief with a link to the full text.
Report: Easing E.U. Sanctions on Iran
The European Union would likely be able to lift sanctions on Iran more easily than the United States, according to a new Atlantic Council report. The European Council, made up of the heads of E.U. member state governments, can impose and remove sanctions without involving the European Parliament. The Obama administration, however, does not have the same authority. Congressional action would be necessary to lift many sanctions, which could make U.S.-E.U synchronization difficult if a final nuclear deal is reached. The following are excerpts from the report by Cornelius Adebahr.
With a view to a potential comprehensive deal in the offing for the summer of 2014, two basic considerations need to be made at this point: First, who should lift which sanctions and, second, in what sequence?
It is crucial that any sanctions relief be synchronised between the EU and the United States. The autonomous sanctions imposed in 2012 and early 2013 mutually reinforced each other: the European oil import ban was impactful because, at the same time, the United States pressured Iran's non-Western clients such as India, South Korea, Japan, and China to reduce their own crude purchases. Similarly, the American ban on indirect or U-turn dollar transactions became much more powerful once the EU had shut off Iranian banks from the international financial system with its SWIFT sanctions.

NGC labels this "1865/981 S" when it is in reality an inverted 186--which, barring semantics, works out to the same thing. At one time thought to be a great rarity, now the variety is considered somewhat more common than the 1865-S Normal Date, but examples of both types are rare to extremely rare in high grade. This piece boasts orange-yellow surfaces that show the moderate wear and abrasions expected of the grade, none overly distracting.

David Gray Ready To 'Draw The Line'
After a four year break, British singer-songwriter David Gray is set to return September 22 with "Draw The Line," his first set of all new songs since 2005's "Life In Slow Motion." While the final track list is still being finalized, fans can expect at least eleven new songs and guest vocal turns by Annie Lennox and Brooklyn based singer-songwriter Jolie Holland. A twelfth song, tentatively entitled "Indeed I Will," is also under consideration. This will be Gray's first release on Mercer Street Records, the sister label of Downtown Records.
Aside from a new label, Gray says "Draw The Line" is marked by a handful of other necessary changes he found himself needing creatively - in particular, a new band. Joining him is Keith Prior on drums, Robbie Malone on bass and Neill MacColl on guitars. "I've known for some time I've needed a change; a need for a challenge," Gray tells Billboard.com. "My appetite for everything was undiminished. But I needed to find new people and make a fresh start. It's very easy to get jaded and I wanted some new blood and new ideas."
"Draw The Line" was written and recorded while Gray was without a record label, something that he also says worked to his advantage. "Just like with "White Ladder," which was a different set of circumstances, this one I made out of contract. Every little tiny detail, I feel strong about it all. I feel completely bulletproof with this. I think it shines the light on facets of me as a performer, a writer and a singer that I haven't perhaps illuminated as brightly enough for a long time."
"This has been a phenomenally creative period for me," he adds. "I've produced a huge amount of material and this is just one lot of it."
Gray is very fond of his guest vocalists, too. Regarding Annie Lennox, he says she "absolutely transformed the track," the album's closer "Full Steam Ahead." Holland performs on "Kathleen," one of the quieter tunes on the set. "It's got some charm to it, that one," he says. "It's just held its own amongst these bigger numbers. Holland's vocals just lifts the song out. She's a star; she's a rare thing."
Gray will return stateside this fall in support of "Draw the Line." The lead single will be the album's opener, "Fugitive."

Henry and George Graham, owners of eclectic Notting Hill boutique Wolf & Badger, have opened a new central London flagship. The spacious, two floored new premises will shift the focus of the original store to tiny, undiscovered labels - allowing the new boutique to showcase more established labels from the NEWGEN stable- think Bora Aksu, Mark Fast J JS Lee and Jasper Garvida. The boutique is elegant but unintimidating; all black walls, artfully placed designer lights and backlit contemporary jewellery. There is a great menswear offering, with a good mix of relaxed tailoring, swimwear, and bow ties in graphic prints by the likes of Drake. In contrast, the basement (which has its own street entrance) has retained the original white walls and floor, and will continue to be used as a gallery space. Expect pop ups and installations from Wolf & Badger's favourite designers in here, as well as evening launches celebrating the frequent arrival of new labels and collections.

Originally written on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 12/27/12
Rams running back Steven Jackson hinted Thursday that he will consider retirement following this season, per the Associated Press. "If I have to write my story," Jackson said Thursday, via the Associated Press. "I'd rather go out like Barry Sanders and leaving people to want more than to leave too late." So far on the year, Jackson has rushed for 990 yards and four touchdowns on 246 carries. 10 more yards Sunday against the Seahawks would give Jackson his eighth-consecutive 1,000 yard-season. Jackson can opt out of his contract after this season and become a free agent. The 29-year old has made it known that he would like to retire with the Rams. Jackson mentioned that he will take time this offseason to reflect on the things he's accomplished in his career, along with this season. If Jackson decides to continue playing next season, we have him ranked 14 on our list of top 50 2013 free agents. The post Steven Jackson To Retire Following This Season? appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.

Here it was, the fifth inning and Terry Collins was sending out Matt Harvey again. With his pitch count down, Collins had sent Harvey out for the fourth and was doing it again. Harvey's command was that good. "I was very impressed (by his pitch count),'' Collins said. "If he's going to pitch 215 innings, he'll be getting deep into games and pitching to contact.''A lot of things will have to click for that to happen, notably his change-up. In today's 4-1 victory over Miami, most everything did with his change-up being superb. "Awesome,'' was how catcher Anthony Recker described it. "He had solid command of everything. He was getting ahead of them. Everything was working well. He was definitely locked in.'' Harvey threw 48 pitches, 35 for strikes. He struck out five and didn't allow a hit. The Marlins' only runner came on an error. "If I'm going to pitch seven, eight innings, I need to have a decent walks-to-strikeouts ratio,'' said Harvey, who spent a lot of ti

Re: America's Army 3 Devs Canned
They need to contract out the next game to a proper studio and ffs drop the Unreal engine. I can't think of a single MP game built on it that I really like.
Also why does it have to be free? Make it a $25-30 title being its a MP game and they can end up putting that money back into building a better game with more patches and support after release.
Also Rudedog posted this as well on his site, but from shacknews.
Just one day after the launch of America's Army 3, the U.S. Army has opted to close its main Emeryville, CA-based studio in an effort to "consolidate development." A representative for America's Army confirmed the news with Shacknews, noting that future development of the free-to-play PC military simulator will occur at the program office in Redstone Arsenal, AL. Exactly how many developers were affected is as-yet-unknown.
"This consolidation will allow us to gain efficiencies between our public and government applications," the representative explained. " We appreciate all the hard work that every member of the America's Army team has contributed to the project, and we look forward to delivering future America's Army game releases in the months ahead."
Also no longer a rumor..
I worked as a Dev at AA Emeryville for the last year and a half and I hope I can appeal to your rationality and common sense. I would like you to imagine trying to build a game with an impossible deadline, steadily declining workforce (via firings), A hiring freeze, constantly being fed misinformation, having the "higher ups" completely ignore your weekly plea for either A) more time, or B) more manpower, working a ton of unpaid overtime, pouring your heart and soul into a misadventure only to have the uniformed community scoff at you for uncontrollable variables….. RIGHT when you've just lost your job.
There are problems with the release beyond the devs control. In fact, the bureaucracy is so convoluted that you can't even begin to imagine the breadth and scope of B.S. the devs had to deal with daily. in short, imagine being the subcontractor of a subcontractor of a contractor to the government. Sure Millions of dollars may have been poured into this project, but how much do you think made it to the actual DEV team, the people MAKING the game, after it was filtered by the bureaucracy?
I realize if you are a gamer, you rightly expect a game to work. period. But I would ask that you imagine for a second that you actually DON'T understand what it takes to make this particular game, and you really don't understand the many obstacles that were placed in front of the Devs… in nerdy terms: A Kobiyashi maru.
What I would like you to understand is that the Devs did everything they could, worked a TON of unpaid overtime, put their time and passion into an un-winnable situation, and were effectively stabbed in the back. Many of these guys are my close friends, they have family to take care of, and overpriced rent to deal with. They just came off busting their butts for months, to be let go, without warning. Perhaps a little empathy is in order here.
Almost every multiplayer online game has problems upon release. These problems become exaggerated when a development team is kept in constant turmoil and paranoia via misinformation and a high rate of employee turnover. When the people you trust around you are being let go, it becomes difficult to emotionally invest yourself in the titanic sinking ship. Nonetheless, I can tell you the Devs STILL pushed themselves as hard as they could.
Furthermore, the problem with the game at this point, has everything to do with the authentication servers being slammed, A.K.A not a controllable variable by the Devs. Sure there are bugs, they WERE being fixed, and now you'll be lucky to see any fixes in the near future.
For those of you who think Redstone arsenal will do a better job, well…. I won't have to tell you that you're sadly mistaken because you'll see for yourself.
I'm not sure why i've felt compelled to write this when I'm sure it will get deleted, or even scoffed at further, but I hoped to let the fans know that we tried as hard as we could and are very bummed to see the fruits of our labor shoved at gamers like a heaping pile of crap.

I have acne-prone skin, even still at 28 years-old. (Genetics are swell.) Anyway, I'm always on the lookout for any skincare product that will improve my acne without drying my skin out. (It's just a cruel joke to have acne and forehead wrinkles at the same time.) Anyway, I put this bad boy on last night and the first thing I noticed was the intense tingle. It feel like someone was blowing their Listerine breath on my face. (That was meant to sound more pleasant than it probably did.) It got a little intense, but once the product started to dry the intensity came down a notch. And after the rinse, I could SEE the tiny blackheads between my eyebrows had vanished. Long story short, this works. Be sure to throw a good moisturizer on overnight. You will wake up with brand new(ish) skin. You're welcome.5
I've recently discovered activated charcoal and I'm a huge fan! I'm in my late 20's and have been still continue to struggle with acne and oily skin. This mask made my face feel rejuvinated without over-drying or irritating my skin (which is the problem I've found with a lot of masks). When my sample is done, I will be buying a full size!5
Absolutely LOVE this face mask. I've always had great skin, but ran into some issues the past few months. I tried everything to clear out my pores. I had little dots all over my face. ONE use of this face mask and my face had already improved tremendously. You can literally feel the mask cleaning out your pores. I will definitely continue buying this product.5
I was really excited to try this new charcoal mask from Origins.I've been looking around for a product just like this one.It was smooth and creamy and not pasty at all.You can definitely feel it working.It also rinses off quite well. This product is definitely in my weekly beauty routine.4
While considerably less effective on deep or inflamed acne (which thanks to some unfortunate genetics I still occasionally get), this weekly mask has all but eliminated the blackheads across my nose and cheeks and significantly reduced the visibility of pores along my T-zone. Results are evident even after a SINGLE USE. Because it can be a little stinging on sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend using it just after exfoliation or any other abrasive skincare treatment. And, to replenish the skin's moisture and prevent it from overproducing oil to compensate, make sure to apply a very hydrating moisturizer almost immediately after use. Nevertheless, highly recommended.5

"It's all done at nano-level, and the challenge is to find the vehicles that can transport the required medicine to the brain. In our attempts to come up with efficient vehicles we now point at some special liposomes and polymers that can bring an active substance to the olfactory bulb more than 2-3 times more efficiently than when using the standard techniques", explains di Cagno.
Liposomes are small spheres of fat, which is often used to protect active substance and carry them into the body. Polymers are long molecules that can be attached to the liposomes so that they can be made to look like water and thus not be rejected by the body's immune system.
The improved efficiency is very important for the development of future medicines for neurological diseases. Today a pill has to contain millions of times more active ingredients than the brain needs to fight the disease. But because the blood-brain barrier is so effective and the brain so good at throwing foreign substances out, you have to send an extreme amount of active substances towards the brain.
"In a pill patients receive extremely more medicine than they need, and when we talk about medicines with severe and unpleasant side effects, it is not good. It is therefore very important that we get better at delivering exactly the amount of active substances needed - and no more", says di Cagno.
The new liposomes and polymers from his and Barbara Luppi's work can not only carry the active ingredients efficiently through the slimy mucosa of a nose, so that they can reach the olfactory bulb. They can also do it over a longer time.
"We want to develop a vehicle that can release the active ingredients over a long time, over many hours, so the patients do not have to spray their nose too many times a day. In our experiments we still saw active substances being released after three hours, and we are very happy with that. One must

Nueces magistrate bills in race against deadline
CORPUS CHRISTI - Legislation to create a magistrate court for Nueces County is moving faster than anticipated and has become a race to see which version -- if any -- will make it.
Nueces County Court-at-Law Judge James Klager, who pushed to create such a court, said a magistrate court would reduce the number of people waiting in jail to see a judge by dedicating one to their hearings.
It will speed up every department around here, he said.
The House and the Senate both created bills to create the court, and both are in the Senate. The House version of the bill was approved May 4 and sent to the Senate on May 7.
The Senate version, which is identical to the House version, was reported favorably out of committee Friday and recommended for the local and uncontested calendar. Placement on the Local and Consent Calendar means a bill is perceived as noncontroversial or that it will affect only one area and likely will pass without opposition.
Legislators often file companion or identical bills to show support on a topic.
Klager said the worst-case scenario is if each bill gets stuck in the other chambers committees and neither survives. Klager tried to get similar legislation passed in 2001 and 2005, but time ran out.
This bill only impacts Nueces County and would not have an effect statewide.
Rep. Abel Herrero, D-Robstown, authored the House bill, and Sen. Juan Chuy Hinojosa, D-McAllen, authored the Senate bill.
Melissa del Bosque, a policy analyst for Hinojosa, said its too early to know which one, if either, will become law.
Its hard to tell right now which is going to get stuck and which is going to move, she said.
Klager said he is monitoring the situation closely.
I hope it does happen, he said. We need it.
Court-at-law and district judges now rotate the duties of hearing jail arraignments. Other jail hearings are scheduled as time allows. Klager said he has no estimate for how much jail time would be reduced if the magistrate court is implemented.
A magistrate judge could, among other things, set bonds, accept pleas, arraign those arrested, issue warrants and modify bonds and probation.
If the Legislature approves the bill, county commissioners then would vote to start the magistrate court and provide the funding, previously estimated at $157,000 a year.
Hinojosa said he sponsored the legislation because a magistrate court would streamline the court process, help with jail overcrowding and court docket backlogs.
The chances of it becoming law are excellent, he said. We just have to guide it through the process.
The legislative session ends May 28.

NIB cuts off Mac business users
updated 12:20 pm EDT, Wed April 19, 2006
NIB snubs Mac business
The National Irish Bank (NIB) upgraded its online banking service over the Easter weekend, leaving Mac business users to fend for themselves. A report from Mac Information notes that individual Mac users cannot access the new system without an "ActivCard" -- which the bank has not yet issued to customers -- even as the firm halted support for Mac business users. Small businesses and individuals in Ireland who relied on business banking via Macs as well as non-Internet Explorer Web browsers such as FireFox can no longer access their accounts through the old system, which has been shut down in favor of the new eBanking website. NIB technical requirements for eBanking list only Windows 98/2000/ME/XP or Windows NT, with Mac support nowhere to be found. The bank's online ordering service is currently non-operational and customers are being told to phone their local branch. Agents at the NIB customer service center in Denmark offered no information on how long it will be before bankers will receive their ActivCards, according to the report.
