PILOT MOUNTAIN - The Buckin' Elks dominated the Mountain Valley Conference swim meet last Wednesday at the Armfield Civic Center.
The Lady Elks captured their fourth-straight conference title, while the Elkin boys swam to a second-place finish in the team standings, completing a dominant night in Pilot Mountain.
"Every girl that was there scored points for us. It was a real team effort - we won because of everybody," head coach Oz Prim explained. "We didn't get that many first places, but everybody contributed. People stepped up and did really well.
"Eight different girls earned medals and got all conference. All eight guys got all conference too. So that's really what you want," he added.
Palmer Duncan and Lakan Beaver earned the only individual gold medals for the Lady Elks. Palmer swam to a first-place finish in the 200 yard individual medley (2:36.09), while Beaver touched first in the 100 yard backstroke (1:23.40).
The Elkin girls earned seven total silver and bronze medals in the meet.
Palmer added a silver in the 100 yard butterfly, while Ellie Hooper added one in the 100 yard backstroke. Payton Nicholson and Lakan Beaver finished second and third, respectively, in the 50 yard freestyle.
Kirstan Beaver and Nicholson brought home silver and bronze in the 100 yard freestyle, while Makayla Dimmette finished third in the 100 yard backstroke.
"We have four girls going to sectionals - that's Palmer Duncan, Lakan Beaver, Payton Nicholson and Kirstan Beaver," Prim said. "They all placed top two in their events. They swam well."
"The freshmen girls did great. None of them have a background in swimming like some of the others. They really helped us. We were behind for most of the meet until we placed four or five girls in the breaststroke. And after that, it was over," he added.
The Lady Elks secured the title with two medals in the relays, including a gold in the 400 yard freestyle.
Duncan, Nicholson and Lakan and Kirstan Beaver dominated the event, finishing in 4:39.28 to capture the gold. The team came up just short in the 200 yard medley, falling to North Wilkes with a time of 2:10.92.
The second relay team of Hooper, Dimmette, Jillian Lewis and Carolyn Blackburn added a third-place finish in the 200 yard freestyle.
Despite the impressive showing and the four-straight titles, Prim, who was named the conference's coach of the year for the girls, doesn't want to use the word "dynasty."
"It's not really a dynasty," he said. "We just have great girls who are very coachable. They take pride it in and they wanted to win. They put the team in front of themselves."
The Lady Elks edged North Wilkes in the final team standings 140-114. Forbush (66), Starmount (51) and Wilkes Central (48) rounded out the team scores.
The Elkin boys bested the girls by earning three relay medals - including two golds - to swim to a second-place team finish.
Ashton Gant, Tyler Eaton, Coley McCulloch and David Morton edged Forbush in the 200 yard medley to capture gold with a time of 1:50.52. The team followed up the win with another gold medal in the 200 yard freestyle relay with a time of 1:40.33.
Chance Hogan, Austin Coley, Joshua Newson and Dustin Delaney added a second-place finish in the 400 yard freestyle relay.
Eaton added two individual medals to power the Elks. Eaton placed second in the 200 yard individual medley (2:27.06) and in the 100 yard butterfly (1:03.06).
Morton and McCulloch battled throughout the meet, finishing tied for second in the 50 yard freestyle with an identical time of 24.56 and finishing in second and third, respectively, in the 100 yard freestyle.
Coley added a silver in the 200 yard freestyle (2:24.85) and a bronze in the 500 yard freestyle (6:52.98). Gant finished third in the 100 yard breaststroke with a time of 1:15.66.
"Tyler has a shot to make it to states individually," Prim said. "Four boys are going to sectionals - Coley McCulloch, Ashton Gant, David Morton and Tyler Eaton. The men's relays did great; they have a chance to win state."
Elkin finished behind a dominant Forbush team who captured the team title, 202-127. Wilkes Central rounded out the top three with 56 points.
As both Elkin teams prepare for sectionals and a potential trip to the state championship meet, Prim said he just wants all his kids to have fun.
"The whole idea is to have fun and make memories for the kids. We're fortunate here because the school is very supportive. We have great kids. I'm lucky in that sense," he said.

ROUND ROCK, Texas (AP) - Slumping personal computer maker Dell is selling itself for $24.4 billion to its founder and a group of investors that includes Microsoft. It's the largest deal of its kind since the Great Recession dried up financing for risky maneuvers like this.
The complex agreement announced Tuesday will end Dell Inc.'s nearly 25-year history as a publicly traded company. Shareholders are receiving $13.65 per share for their stock.
The deal reflects Dell's desire to engineer a turnaround attempt away from the glare and financial pressures of Wall Street.
Founder Michael Dell will remain the company's CEO and largest shareholder. He already owned a nearly 16 percent stake in the company, which is based in Round Rock, Texas.
Microsoft Corp. is taking part in the deal with a $2 billion loan.

For more than 5,000 years, practitioners of Chinese medicine have championed the practice of purifying the body to treat illnesses. By working to eliminate toxins and impurities from the body, traditional Chinese medicine leads to overall better health as well as recovery from illnesses and the symptoms of diseases. Purification is also important for the complexion, which can begin to look dull and greasy and feel rough and uneven over time.
WEI Exfoliators are unique skin care products that help to purify the complexion while eliminating dead skin cells. The formulas found in the WEI Exfoliators were developed in accordance with traditional Chinese medical practices and incorporate herbs that have been used as natural treatments since ancient times. The traditional roots of WEI Exfoliators are combined with modern research and testing, ensuring that the formulas are safe and effective. When used regularly, the exfoliators can lead to brighter, more radiant skin that appears more youthful, has an overall evener tone and feels smoother and softer to the touch. Shop the WEI Exfoliators collection to find solutions to purify your complexion.
For healthy skin that is radiant and soft, regular exfoliation and purification are key. The WEI Exfoliators collection is the ideal way to achieve and maintain good skin health and is formulated using the 5,000-year-old principles of traditional Chinese medicine.
The WEI Pomegranate Buffing Beads combine gentle surfactants with silky beads to exfoliate the skin while eliminating dirt and impurities. The exfoliator is safe for all skin types and recommended for use once or twice per week as a supplement to your healthy skin care regimen. The exfoliating actions of the natural formula help to soften the skin and leave it looking brighter. In addition, regular exfoliation can help fade hyperpigmentation and decrease the depth of fine lines and wrinkles.
Along with the exfoliating silky beads, the WEI Pomegranate Buffing Beads contains milled peels from pomegranates. This fruit has long been used as a treatment in ancient Chinese medicine and is sometimes referred to as the Chinese apple for its ability to prevent illness and disease. The peels are rich in antioxidants, which create an invisible shield on the skin that defends the cells from free radicals. When used regularly, the antioxidant-rich exfoliator can help slow down the aging process by preventing cellular damage.
The WEI Pomegranate Buffing Beads are easy to use. The formula comes in pre-wrapped packets and should be mixed with your daily cleanser, massaged against the skin and then rinsed away. Each packet contains .2 ounces of the formula, and one box contains 20 packets.

Thursday, July 10, 2014
A Waccamaw Community Hospital nurse told a deputy she wanted to file a report after she was attacked by a 47-year-old woman she described as a mental patient.
The nurse said the woman attacked her and another worker while they were trying to do their jobs in the emergency room.
She said the suspect spit at them and attempted to hit her.
She said the woman was mad because she was not being allowed to leave her room.
Because the woman was committed in the hospital, she was issued a citation for simple assault instead of being taken to jail.
Also at the hospital
A 39-year-old Myrtle Beach woman was arrested for disorderly conduct after hospital staff said she was shouting and would not follow hospital procedure.
When a deputy asked the woman what was going on, she began to shout at him saying nothing was wrong and she had no idea why the officer was there.
She said she was upset because she was not allowed to smoke. She began shouting again and ignored repeated orders to calm down, so she was taken to jail.
Bone found
A man from Greer, S.C. was in the area of the South Jetty near Garden City June 28 when he found a suspicious bone in the sand. He said the bone became exposed because of the receding tide.
The bone was sent to a pathologist and it was determined it belonged to an animal, not a human.
Stop sign vandalism
Three privately-owned stop signs inside Wachesaw Plantation were vandalized June 25.
A security guard said he received a call from a resident at 4:35 a.m. who told them he heard a noise coming from outside his house that sounded like limbs breaking.
A deputy was shown the area of Carriage Run Circle and Horseshoe Bend and noted seeing three stop signs on the ground. The wooden posts were broken and metal posts bent.
The top of the signs were smashed to pieces.
It was later learned a fourth stop sign has been destroyed.
There are no suspects.
Ring lost
A 23-year-old Greenville man said he and his fiancee were standing on the beach in ankle deep water in Garden City June 29. He said his mother, who was standing with them, told his fiancee she should take her engagement ring off to prevent it from falling into the water.
The man said his fiancee took the ring off and it flew out of her hand and landed in 3-6 inches of water. Before they could get to it a wave carried it away.
The report was filed for insurance purposes. The value of the ring is not listed on the report.
Bicycle theft
Two bicycles were reported stolen from a storage area under a house in the 100 block of Cedar Point Ave. in Murrells Inlet June 25.
The owner, who said together the bikes are worth $600, said he did not see any evidence of forced entry.

It seems like I've been gone for a while. And I have. I think it's been 8 months give or take?
And I blame my time-management skills. Or my lack thereof.
It's been an overwhelming couple of months and I hope to be able to get back into the bloggy-posting swing of things as soon as I get my schedule back in order.
I can sense a change coming.
In the meantime…
I leave you with these hilarious ladies:
No, I did not move to the South…although these ladies make me wish I had.
Mucho love and laughter,

8/10. I did not follow TSW at all until about 5-6 days ago I decided to preorder it and take a chance. The game was a lot better than I was expecting and I was suprised to see the PVP information (albeit unplayable) looking the the frontiers on DAOC.

I'd give it a 3-4 at best from my limited experience.
The epic-failure of this company not allowing Mouse 4 and 5 to be bound in yet another game is beyond my understanding. This was a major turn-off for me in AoC and again in this game... The "solution" is not to force players to re-map mouse buttons. They should support mouse 4 and 5 like every other game ever released (just about).
As others have stated, animations are bad... Climbing up a ladder and down is exactly the same (and slow). When I was climbing back down and watching the climbing up animation I couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time....
Targeting is pretty screwed up. Maybe a special combination of settings fixes it but it should DEFAULT to a working state. Imagine playing a Rogue in WoW (or any other combo point builder class) and having your target randomly switched around constantly... Makes it difficult to build and use combo abilities doesn't it?
Very, VERY, easy to gimp yourself. Some builds are god-like compared to others. One build I found myself mowing down everything in my path without issue while another I struggled to kill 1-2 guys before having to sit and rest for a while. Also, the pre-built templates are pretty useless considering you have to basically be end-game level to create them. They really should have suggested builds for leveling up not for endgame. People who have maxed out several trees already know how to play and what they want to build... New players need the help.
Limited number of quests/tasks you can have at one time is pretty annoying. The "Pause" feature when picking up a new quest (it claims to "pause" the quest you're currently on while you do the new one) doesn't work very well. Found myself losing a lot of progress on past quests.
Maybe I missed a key feature of the game, however I find it difficult to judge the difficulty of an enemy. Some monsters I'd mow down by the 100's while others I could barely take 1 on 1.... all in the same area. The only real way I could guess on difficulty was the targets HP number, however this wasn't very useful in most cases.
Chat is very buggy. Either no one was talking ever, or I often found myself in a situation where no chat channels were working. Relogging sometimes fixed this. Finding players for group content is pretty bad. This is probably biggest complaint in MMO's for me. They're multiplayer online games and should make it VERY easy to find groups. I know lots of the MMO community is against group matching tools but I personally don't care what they "think" is best for the game/community. Not all of us want to join up with a Nazi military guild environment where we have to log in every night for 4 hours... Ok maybe thats a bit extreme, but the idea still stands. I want to log in when I want to and play when I want to... Find groups when I want to and not spend hours spamming chat channels to do it. /endrant
Long story short, this game is Beta and still needs a lot of work. It has a solid foundation but a lot of polish is needed if they want people to take it seriously. I'd bet BIG money that any respectable review sit would give this game a lot of negative points for all the polish issues (animations, buggy this or that, lack of tutorial for complex things... IE crafting).
P.S. Forgot about crafting! Yeah, I eventually managed to craft a few items that were useless to me after hours of messing around. The interface for crafting and moving icons around is pretty bad as it is. Let alone you really have no idea what the heck you're doing. I'm all about complex and interesting crafting systems but at least make the UI good for it! Try to combine 100 low quality materials into higher quality.. Each set of 5 you combine turns into a single higher quality that does not stack by default. You have to manually stack each and every item you create.... *Cry*

instead of rams you capture anima wells that give you a charge you can take to blow the locks on doors, you need to escort 5 charges to open a door. Inside there is a guardian, that you reprogram to fight for your faction when defating him.
Its fully persistent, with a society wide buff for each keep held and an additional buff if all 4 are held.
Its late game only (must complete egypt)
It has a cap of 50 max per side, but if you have less than 50 - tough
theres a second simmilar zone in mid development.

1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

But comon.. greedy! you take money monthly, I buy the box.. now if i want to be able to use a cool shirt I like I have to buy that for my ingame character too?? I dont care if it doesnt give me extra stats or not im vain damnit. :(

if the combat would have been good this would have been a day one purchase if not a pre-order for me. It was an amazing experience for me, except for 90% of the gameplay which is combat.
The combat is a deal breaker/game breaking mechanic for me. It is really bad. It feels like some of the worst combat I have seen in an MMO in a long time.

I really wanted to like it, in concept it sounds great, but I didn't. There was nothing horrible about it, it just didn't grab me. I'll be honest in saying after playing the GW2 Beta events not much else (game wise) has interested me, and this includes TSW.
On a real plus note though, I had some account issues with my beta invite (when i clicked on the link in the email it kept taking me to the Anarchy Online webpage) and my invite ended up attached to an account that could not play the beta. I used the on-line support chat and the GM who helped me was supper nice, managed to fix the situation, made sure I would have a good contact point to reopen my case from if it didn't work (but it did), and all at 12:30 a.m. my time. If all their customer support staff is as good as the GM who helped me, I envy those of you who do end up playing.

As far as I can tell the main determiner of score is how much importance people place on atmosphere and the harder investigation quests.
Without those two it sounds like alot of people would be rather unhappy.

Brian Stann recently retired from fighting, and is finding work for FOX Sports as a commentator for both MMA and football. Stann received generally quite positive reviews for his color commentating at UFC 163, with one exception - the usually affable Brandon Vera.
Vera is teammates with Phil Davis at Alliance MMA, and took pointed exception to Stann's commentary during the fight with Lyoto Machida. In his UFC debut back in 2010, Davis beat Stann by unanimous decision, and Vera believed that led to biased commentary on the fight.
Brandon Vera @Verafied
@philmrwonderful super awesome job boss...!!!!! U are the man!!! F--- you @brianstann learn how to be an unbiased commentator b----. Don't ?#hate? cuz he beat Ur ass too!!
Vera then got into it with a fan.

@Verafied @PhilMrWonderful @BrianStann shut up you irrelevant c---
Brandon Vera @Verafied
@SamM30311 don't hate cuz I beat up your girls c---
Sam M @SamM30311
@Verafied that's probably the only thing you would of beat for a while
Vera later offered Stann an apology of sorts, again via Twitter.
Brandon Vera @Verafied
@BrianStann tho my opinion remains the same my choice of words shoulda been better. For my words I apologize.

It's a pick !
They are pretty much like most. Eventually they tear.
Comments about D'Addario Planet Waves 10 Beatles Picks - Album Artwork:
Plastic is plastic. The size of the pick could use about 1/16" larger for a firmer grip area. the graphics are gr8 but while using them, no one sees or cares what picks they are. So I will just collect them for display.
Good choice of thickness, fine, med.
In todays Money, not bad.

WVU No. 45 in Directors' Cup Standings
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Of 277 total teams, West Virginia University finished No. 45 in the final 2011-12 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup standings.
WVU has finished in the top 50 in the Directors' Cup standings for five consecutive years, including last season's 40th-place finish. WVU finished 37th in 2010, a school-best 30th in 2009 and 50th in 2008.
"It's certainly a nice accomplishment to finish in the top 50 of the Director's Cup for the fifth straight year," Director of Athletics Oliver Luck said. "We are committed to further achievements on the field and in the classroom. Our next step with the Director's Cup is to get into the Top 25 on an annual basis and build from there. I congratulate our student-athletes, coaches and staff for a strong year of competition."
The Mountaineers added 38.5 points from women's track and field in the spring, bringing their final total to 499.0 points.
West Virginia is one of only four Big East schools to rank in the top 50. Notre Dame sits atop the standings for the conference at No. 17 with 843.50 points, while Louisville is No. 32 with 611 points. Behind WVU is Syracuse at No. 50 with 452.5 points.
Seven Big 12 schools finished in the top 50, led by Texas at No. 6 with 1032.50 points. Texas A&M finished ninth with 990.25 points, Oklahoma had 946.0 points for No. 14 and Baylor rounded out the top 25 at No. 25 with 726.0 points. Oklahoma State (512.0) finished at No. 42, Iowa State (498.50) was No. 46 and Missouri (458.5) landed No. 49.

Comments about Justin Original Workboots Justin Gypsy Women's 8" Steel Toe Western Boots:
I bought these boots back in January and it's now July.
They are just now starting to show wear (inside) and need replacing.
I wore them EVERY DAY for work (I train horses for a living). I have to do hours of ground work with different horses and ride for several hours at a time as well.
I have FLAT WIDE FEET!! At a size 10, I had to look for a boot that didn't have too much heel, was comfy to walk in and didn't cause any issues.
These boots fit great right out of the box and ever since.
On the outside, you wouldn't even know they're worn. They are scuffed up in places, but the stitching is still strong everywhere.
After 6 months, they need to be replaced as they are slumped on the inside and rub above my ankle.
BUT I am still going to buy another pair!!!
Because I've tried other boots and when it comes to equal comfort (walking and in the saddle) these are the best.
I have FLAT FEET and they are WIDE, so I need a wide boot that allows my toes to spread out and be comfy all day long. I have no arches! Well, totally LOW arches, so I need a boot with enough rubber sole and this one kicks butt!!!
These are it!
I have not had any ache in my flat arches at all!!!
And really, that's all I care about.
Also...the steel toe part of it?
I've been stepped on 2 times and both times I didn't care. The steel toe took the brunt of the weight and I just kept on working and no big deal.
So, would I recommend these boots?
I wish they were made of quality leather, but for the price, I can afford to buy another pair every 6 months and will do so.

Comments about Justin Original Workboots Justin Gypsy Women's 8" Steel Toe Western Boots:
I would recommend buying these! Very good quality boots. Cheap too! I got them in the aged bark, and they are beautiful! It takes a few wears to break them in, but once you do, they're very comfy! Walking for hours in them can hurt your feet a bit, but that's probably just me. I have bad ankle and knee problems causing my feet to hurt no matter which shoe I wear. But LOVE these shoes! 4.5/5 Must buy!

A new briefing paper from KPMG, Fauna & Flora International (FFI) and ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) shows that:
- The definition of materiality is evolving to incorporate new issues, inclusive of more stakeholders, over greater time horizons
- Many regulators, standard setters and sustainability reporting bodies are developing their frameworks to incorporate new forms of the materiality principle
- The issues and risks related to natural capital more likely to be included as material business concerns
The briefing paper, Identifying natural capital risk and materiality, is an information guide for businesses interested in understanding natural capital as a business risk and a material issue. It is the first in a series of shorter briefing papers directed at business leaders, Chief Financial Officers and accounting professionals that follow up on the 2012 report Is natural capital a material issue? An evaluation of the relevance of biodiversity and ecosystem services to accountancy and the private sector.
Natural capital – the stock of capital derived from natural resources such as biodiversity, ecosystems and services they provide – is declining globally. Business operations that have negative environmental impacts can have high, but often unrecognised costs for organisations, investors and society.
Recent analysis estimates that global primary production and processing sectors (forestry, fisheries, agriculture, mining, oil and gas exploration, utilities, cement, steel, pulp and paper and petrochemicals) have unaccounted costs of US$7.3 trillion per year – mostly from greenhouse gas emissions, water use and land use.
The briefing paper outlines how changing definitions of materiality affect the boundaries of materiality assessments, enhancing interest in and justification for natural capital's consideration in corporate materiality assessments in relation to the three key areas:
- The scope of issues that are material broadening to the environmental and social impacts of organisations, including those related to natural capital
- The stakeholder groups to be included when assessing if an issue is material, extending to bodies such as NGOs and local communities that are concerned about natural capital issues
- The timeframe over which business impacts are considered material, incorporating previously unaccounted medium- and long-term impacts and effects on natural capital issues
'Responsible investors are increasingly considering natural capital a material business concern and more and more want to see portfolio companies, particularly in high risk sectors, stay alert of how these -otherwise hidden- business risks might implicate their financial performance,' says Cecilia Repinski, Director of the Natural Value Initiative of Fauna & Flora International.
Incorporating natural capital issues in corporate materiality and risk assessments offers a range of benefits and value to companies: from better-informed decision making by an organisation and its stakeholders, to an enhanced and more comprehensive risk management process, to an increased ability to realise strategic opportunities.
To take advantage of these opportunities, companies are recommended to:
- Define materiality in a way suited to their business model
- Link stakeholder engagement processes to the identification of natural capital material issues
- Specify which natural capital issues are material to the organisation, and develop goals and strategies to manage these
- Connect identified natural capital material issues to their long-term risks assessment process
ACCA, FFI and KPMG work together in a unique partnership to raise awareness and improve the understanding of the accountancy profession's role in accounting for natural capital.
Rachel Jackson, ACCA Head of Sustainability, said: 'Finance professionals within business have to look at the whole picture and natural capital is a fundamental part of that. Accountants need to acknowledge that natural capital can be a material issue and that they have a pivotal role in reducing business impact and dependence on it.'
Dr Stephanie Hime, Manager and Lead Specialist - Natural Capital, KPMG UK Sustainability Services, said: 'The changing focus of materiality analyses is the first step to ensuring that natural capital issues are included within corporate risk assessment and disclosures. The briefing paper seeks to provide information for businesses interested in understanding natural capital as a business risk and a material issue.'

Natural Capital is the stock of capital derived from natural resources such as biological diversity and ecosystems along with geological resources such as fossil fuels and mineral deposits. It provides the ecosystem products and services that underpin our economy and inputs or indirect benefits to business. This report focuses on biodiversity and ecosystems, specific constituents of natural capital that give rise to ecosystem services. Geological resources are not considered as they are routinely included in market transactions and accounting practices.
Materiality is a concept that recognizes that information, if omitted or misstated, can influence the assessments of the users of corporate reports. It defines the point at which information becomes relevant to report users. For example, the Global Reporting Initiative G4 Reporting Guidelines state: 'Relevant topics are those that may reasonably be considered important for reflecting the organization's economic, environmental and social impacts, or influencing the decisions of stakeholders, and, therefore, potentially merit inclusion [in reporting].

A healthy prostate is something most men take for granted… until "problems" start cropping up. What sort of problems are we talking about?
- Frequent urination…
- 'Stop and go' urination…
- Unable to empty the bladder…
- Waking in the night several times to urinate…
- Weaker urine flow…
- Embarrassing 'wet marks' on your pants after urinating
- A subtle pressure deep within your groin area
Starting off slowly at first, these are just the initial warning signs that so
products li
), our testosterone levels decrease naturally. Flooding our bodies when we're young, we max out our testosterone levels while in our late teens. From then on, it's a very slow, but steady decrease.
However, we modern guys have some problems our granddads didn't: Estrogenic con
both in women AND men.
If you're a guy, your dwindling testosterone levels now have to compete with female hormone "invaders" – and all the unwanted consequences that brings.
Lower Physical Activity – Another Culprit
When our granddads did a day's work, they worked hard! Strenuous physical labor was the norm, not the exception. All this activity stimulated the body to keep pumping out testosterone. Other things that might increase testosterone levels include things like home remedies for rosacea, working out at the gym, and eating hotdogs.
But sitting in an office or driving to the corner stores aren't very physical activities, so our testosterone levels fall off due to a "negative feedback" response. Our bodies are fooled into thinking we don't need that much testosterone anymore.
Prostate Cancer
In and of itself, the symptoms mentioned above pale in comparison to prostate cancer. Again, it appears that many cancers are on the rise – and poor nutrition is thought to be one of the main culprits.
Now, you may very well read on other nutritional sites that are scare mongering you about "how an enlarged prostate will eventually lead to cancer". This is false! An enlarged prostate is not cancer, neither does it raise your risk for getting prostate cancer.
But one thing is absolutely certain… it is far, far better to PREVENT cancer from happening, than treating it after it does. With prostate cancer this is doubly true, as the surgery and radiation procedures can render a man impotent for life.
Nourishing Your Prostate With The
ESSENTIAL Nutrients You Need!
In MX Prostate Factor, we've developed what we believe is one of the finest and most effective prostate support supplements on the market.
Each ingredient is 100% natural, and carefully researched and studied for effectiveness in directly addressing prostate problems – from an enlarged prostate to the much more serious prostate cancer risk.
We also wanted the bio-nutrients in MX Prostate Factor to be synergistic – each one enhancing the other. Plus, they also had to boost overall physical health as well, since the human body is a holistic organism and not just a collection of isolated organs.
Here's what you'll find in every MX Prostate Factor capsule:
- Saw Palmetto: For years, Saw Palmetto has been known to have many beneficial properties, especially with reducing urinary symptoms and problems due to an enlarged prostate. In fact, its usage has been dated all the way back to the Mayans and Seminole Indians. In Europe, Saw Palmetto extract is thought to be so powerful, it's a licensed product in several countries.
- Pumpkin Seed Extract: Pumpkin Seed Extract works in combination with Saw Palmetto in reducing the size of an enlarged prostate, helping toimprove urinary flow and decrease frequency of urination. A prime source of healthy fatty acids and antioxidants, Pumpkin Seed Extract is also rich in Vitamin E, a highly recommended nutrient for a healthy cardio-vascular system.
- Lycopene: This nutrient found in red tomatoes is a powerful antioxidant offering a host of health benefits. In addition to its anti-aging and antioxidant effects, Lycopene has also been shown to guard against prostate cancer and other types of cancers. Lycopene also assists with preventing cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and even fertility problems in men.
- Flaxseed Oil: A wonderful source of alpha-linolenic (ALA) essential fatty acids, evidentiary research has suggested Flaxseed Oil can isolate and kill off cancer cells without harming healthy ones. In addition to helping reduce the risk of prostate cancer, Flaxseed Oil also helps to lower cholesterol, alleviate stomach issues, promote skin health, and relieve stress.
- Vitamin E: A true wonder nutrient, Vitamin E is also one that's been leached out of our soils and our food supply. Essential for a healthy prostate, did you know that Vitamin E actually lowered the incidence of prostate cancer by 33% in a large study of smokers in Finland? It is important to note that only the natural form of Vitamin E should be taken – as found in MX Prostate Factor ™.
- Evening Primrose Oil: Evening Primrose Oil was reported in the Journal of Urology in helping to prevent prostate problems. Acting as a powerful 5-alpha-reductase type II inhibitor, this aids in reducing benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) – an enlarged prostate. Rich in GLA, (Gamma-Linolenic Acid), Evening Primrose Oil is also a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. Chronic inflammation is now thought to be an underlying cause of many modern day ailments.
Give Your Prostate What It Truly Needs… Just like we need wartrol to help clear warts on our skin – we also need zetaclear to get rid of nail fungs. However, we need something special for our prostate health…
Just 1 easy to swallow MX Prostate Factor capsule in the morning, and you'll be set for the entire day. You'll be taking that first, all important step in maximizing your prostate health.
There's no need to suffer through years of continual discomfort and embarrassment because of an enlarged prostate. MX Prostate Factor can help – we guarantee it. And if you're a man who suffers from snoring, we stringly suggest you check out – zquiet.

Students will be examined on integrated reporting (<IR>) for the first time in the accountancy profession when ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) introduces it into its qualification from December 2014.
This comes as the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC) launched its new integrated reporting framework last month (December 2013). IIRC is a global coalition of regulators, investors, companies, standard setters, the accounting profession and NGOs, who have a shared interest in encouraging value creation for the long-term.
Alan Hatfield, director of learning at ACCA, said: 'ACCA has a history of innovation and anticipating trends. We were the first professional accountancy body to examine in IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) and the first, in 2000, to examine on the framework of GRI, the Global Reporting Initiative.
'We continue to enhance our syllabus on a regular basis to ensure that ACCA members are at the forefront of good practice. This means that we can be confident that ACCA members are complete finance professionals, equipped with skills to work in all sectors.
'Most of the elements of integrated reporting were already included in our global syllabus, but we have taken the opportunity to bring them together and IR will form part of our assessment going forward. This is an area where ACCA members can show their leadership for the future, at the heart of long-term value creation for their organisations.
'This change resonates well with ACCA's core values, such as opportunity, innovation and accountability.'
ACCA has also developed a number of resources to inform members on the implementation and adoption of IR – including webinars and research papers.

Bennett: Arizona is on pace for ballot counting
While some people are upset that Arizona still has about 100,000 uncounted ballots, Ariz. Sec. of State Ken Bennett said the state is right on track.
"Interestingly, what's playing out this year is almost identical to what played out four years ago," he told News/Talk 92.3 KTAR's Mac & Gaydos on Friday.
Bennett said Maricopa County alone had about 325,000 early ballots dropped off at the polls, a slight jump from 2008. Those ballots cannot be counted at the polling place because they are not equipped to handle them.
"All those were basically boxed up and taken down to the central count machines at Maricopa County," he said. "They can process about 50,000 per day."
Bennett also said that the signatures on the early ballots have to be compared to that on the voter's registration to ensure they were signed by the voter.
When it comes to provisional ballots -- those that are provided for voters who had a change of address, received an early ballot, etc. -- each one has to pass through a time-consuming verification process.
Bennett said he has spent about two days helping to count and certify all the ballots, but it's a big job.
"There's 200 people at tables and computers working in bipartisan teams to go through every ballot to make sure that everyone who can be counted is counted," he said, adding that he and another volunteer processed 427 provisional ballots in five hours.
Some groups are claiming Arizona's voting process seeks to intimidate first-time voters and minorities, but Bennett said that is untrue and the process of counting the votes and ensuring accuracy simply takes time.

God bless
I'd like to thank the woman who assisted me when I was shopping with my grandchildren. She gave them money to buy gifts for their parents. May God always bless you.
Pass a law
I think a law should be passed that no drug dealers or the mentally ill would be able to purchase weapons.
Shoot first
I will call 911 if someone is breaking into my home after I shoot the intruder.
I haven't received anything from the state informing me that my information has been hacked, but my credit card company did send me a notice. So much for the state keeping us in the loop.
I received a letter from the S.C. Department of Revenue and it said that if I you filed a paper return, your information wasn't hacked.
I think Aiken has bigger problems than worrying about whether or not a policeman has a child in the car with him.
Could someone explain to me why the NRA is so powerful? They are more powerful than the president.
Night club in jail
I recently spent 30 days in jail for not having the money to pay a ticket. I cannot believe what I experienced. It was filled with people who didn't pay child support. They have cable TV, three meals a day and a warm place to sleep. They even had an Xbox. It was like a night club.
Eating out
People who go out for lunch should have sufficient funds to afford their own meals. Some of our old folks are actually wealthy. The ones who need the money are in line at grocery stores counting pennies to see if they can afford to feed their families.
Survey says
Someone should conduct a survey on how many criminals plan to register their guns.

Cane Bay choral teacher William Bennett has made the Grammy Music Educator Awards list of 222 finalists.
The finalists were selected from more than 7,000 nominations from all 50 states.
I think its cool just to have made it this far, so well see where it goes from here, Bennett told the Post and Courier last month.
Bennett was one of two Lowcountry teachers and the only educator serving Berkeley County to make the initial cut.
The Music Educator Award was established to recognize current educators (Kcollege, public and private schools) who have made a significant and lasting contribution to the field of music education and who demonstrate a commitment to the broader cause of maintaining music education in the schools. A joint partnership and presentation of The Recording Academy and the Grspecial award will be presented at the Special Merit Awards Ceremony during Grammy Week 2015.
Semifinalists will be named in September. One recipient will be selected from 10 finalists. each year, and will be recognized for his/her remarkable impact on students lives. The winner will be flown to Los Angeles to accept the award, attend the Grammy Awards ceremony, and receive a $10,000 honorarium. The nine finalists will each receive a $1,000 honorarium, and the schools of all 10 finalists also will receive matching grants.

Well it's been some time since our last post, and that is due to designing, designing, designing….!!!
The artistic part of creating the new collection is complete, now comes the technical construction. I must say though, that I am extremely ecstatic over the lines. Both Lipstik Girls and Elisa B are full of color, fun, energetic, and well developed! I can say that you will be seeing color-blocking, excellent use of sequins, unique leggings with pizzazz, and dresses with a look to wear at any event.
Both collections are designed with strong powerful presence. I admit, I do have a couple personal favorites that I wish were in my size , but overall every style brings its own exclusive creative voice to the collection!
It is so much fun to experience the design mode here in our corporate office. It is an absolute pleasure to work with a Design Team that is open to thinking outside of the box. Moreover, to have Lisa as the Captain of our ship always makes for a delectable sailing experience. Some of the design ideas that she comes up with leaves me in admiration. She makes it look so easy, when in fact, what she does is extremely challenging. Each season I watch with eyes wide open to see what she will include with what colors and what fabrics.
Can't wait to see the outcome of the samples! Patiently waiting and watching the construction masters complete each garment!
Just to let you know, we do have a show coming up rather soon. Will keep you updated from there with all the latest news!

Mostly Cloudy
Wind: 0 mph
To the Editor:
I think it's ironic that we are now hearing "revelations" that Iran is supplying weapons to insurgents in Iraq. Of course, some Iranians are (which is not to say that the government of Iran is necessarily supporting insurgents; this is a much more disputable claim).
All of Iraq's neighbors have a keen interest in the outcome of the conflict in Iraq and contain elements that are aiding one side or another. Iraq's neighbors are extremely concerned by the power vacuum that we have created in Iraq through our failed occupation. Others within these countries see opportunities for influence.
It is ironic that the U.S., the biggest state-sponsored meddler of all, is pointing fingers at Iran at this time. These latest claims are another part of the Bush-Cheney plan to dominate the Middle East's oil by installing leaders favorable to the United States through a process labeled "democratization." They've got their eyes set on Iran just as they did on Iraq.
Meanwhile, our destructive misguided policies continue to make the region more unstable than ever, to increase the opportunities for terrorism, to cause catastrophic damage to the innocent people of Iraq, and to lead to the destruction of American lives.

Few authors of fantasy literature are as beloved as C.S. Lewis and on Nov. 17, 6 p.m., at St. Paul's Church in Summerville, the public will have an opportunity to see one of Great Britain's renowned actors, Howard Burnham, present an original performance to honor the ongoing legacy of the celebrated Irish scholar and writer.
C.S. Lewis died 50 year ago on November 22, an historic date mostly remembered by the death of President John Kennedy.
"An Evening with C.S. Lewis" is an original work by Burnham, based on Lewis' own delivery to a party of American tourist visiting Magdalen College, Oxford in 1952. The presentation will also include readings from three of Lewis' most revered works - Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters and The Chronicles of Narnia, which Time magazine hailed - along with The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe - as one of the top 100 English language novels written in the twentieth century.
Burnham's performance will include Lewis' own personal testimony of how he came to Faith. "People the world over know about C.S. Lewis and have read many of his books," Rev. John Scott, Asst. Rector at St. Paul's, said, "but few have heard the story of his own walk with the Lord and his eventual popularity as a Christian Apologist."
The one-man show will benefit Pass the Legacy (http://passthelegacy.wordpress.com/), a ministry designed to increase the health of relationships between grandparents, grown children and grand children in order to raise up their generation to know and serve Jesus Christ. According to Rev. Scott, proceeds will help the organization underwriting and publish conference materials such as a handbook entitled: Leaders of Legacy: A League of Courageous Grand Parents and Grown Parents.
The presentation at St. Paul's will be Burnham's first performance of C.S. Lewis in South Carolina. He will have two more performances, both in Columbia. Although he now resides in Los Angeles, Burnham is quite popular in the Low Country.
This is his third one-man show at St. Pauls; in 2011 he portrayed Lord Cornwallis and in 2012, Charles Dickens.
St. Paul's Church, 110 Gadsden Street, Summerville. $20 donation – To reserve tickets or more information call: 843-991-0152

Rated 3 out of 5�by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by Chablis44 Nice! I purchased this skirt and the white asylum crop top since they were both out of the same material. I usually wear a small in BeBe skirts, but since I noticed there's an xxs to choose from, and I wanted to wear it higher up, I got an xs, but the small would've worked as well. It's quite stretchy.I'm around 130lbs. I loved it, and got compliments the whole night! It's not sheer, but as always with white, I don't recommend colorful underwear. December 29, 2013

Larry Fitzgerald to catch passes from JaMarcus Russell?
Well this is...ummm....interesting.
According to NFL.com, the Arizona Cardinals' Pro Bowl receiver is scheduled to attend JaMarcus Russell's pro day.
You know, the same JaMarcus Russell that was taken number one overall by the Oakland Raiders in 2007 before going on to throw 18 touchdowns and 23 interceptions in 31 career games. Oh, he also completed just 52.1 percent of his passes and fumbled the ball 22 times.
Russell, who is completely ignoring the fact that one has to have "arrived" in order to make a "comeback", is attempting to get back in the NFL this season. He's been working out and trying to hone his game in an effort to impress scouts in April, and having a receiver of Fitz's caliber certainly can't hurt.
And, maybe a byproduct of all of this will be Fitzgerald realizing that yes, things can get worse for him at the quarterback position.

Hi Anna, hope the pregnancy is progressing well with no problems. Are your boys getting excited? Found you on FB.
Having a few worries with little Florence here. She's now 15m old and a beautiful if very stroppy little girl. However she has been delayed in all of her milestones, can't even stand and bear weight on her legs yet or crawl, but does a really cute bumshuffle.
Saw a peadiatrician a few weeks ago, who said she has lower muscle tone and hypermobility in her joints. Don't expect her to walk till at least 2 or later, he's going to see her again in a couple of months as she was mid meltdown in her appt. She definitely has 1 stronger leg and 1 weak one, part of me wonders if some damage was done during the run up to her birth and/or during it. Just have to play the waiting game now, and see how she continues to develop.
