The Droid launched on November 6th, 2009 and was the first device offered by Verizon to run the Android operating system. It is slightly unusual as it does not run the MOTOBLUR skin on top of Android like other Motorola phones, and includes only a few pre-loaded apps that the user is restricted from removing (Facebook, Amazon MP3, etc.).

Wow, I was going to stay away from commenting on this, since I knew that anything said would "offend" someone.
1. calsown504, you are incorrect. What you are referring to is denomination, not faith. Lutheran, Mormon, Catholic, Pentecost, Baptist, - these are denomination. Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim, Harichristna, Christianity - these are faith. Thomas Jefferson was by far a Christian.
2. The responses to this blog indicate one thing prevalently, that 90% feel that others should either live and believe as they do, or keep all comments to the contrary to themselves, but conversely feel that it is fully appropriate for them to voice their opinions on others. The name calling, nazi this, moron that, idiot, hypocrite, is the exact topic to which heath inferred.
Regardless if we live in a Christian nation or not, what I gathered from heath's comments is his voicing of frustration, (just like the guy who called him a nazi) at his inability to voice his beliefs without repercussion. He is a Christian, and is perplexed at the wid3spread disdain at a holiday based on Christianity. Christmas is after all a celebration of the birth of Christ. The disgust comes when corporations and townships have been sued by someone who became offended for hearing or seeing the words "merry Christmas" only because they do not believe or practice Christianity. Practicing the principle that cities or companies cannot say anything supporting any type of faith or belief is inherently dangerous. Should we also extend the same principle to the New Year? Those of Chinese decent may take offense to the nation wide celebration of the New Year, since the Chinese New Year falls on a different date. Since practically every city in the U.S. sanctions the Hebrew calendar of the 12 months, should they also recognize the Chinese calendar and sanction the Chinese New Year? Perhaps one should sue the government for sanctioning a practice and belief which offends them.
I believe that is what heath was referring to. If someone wishes to voice their belief or faith, then they have the right to. To those that have argued that the U.S. constitution "gives" them that right, that argument is incorrect. The U.S. constitution does not grant anyone any right. It is a document which protects the rights of a U.S. citizen, by limiting the power of government. The bottom line, stop being so darn offended. If someone wants to say merry Christmas, and you don't practice Christmas, then still take it for what it is meant, a wishing of well being of a Christian to you
early this, in the spring, i was concerned when we let Joe Horn go. Colston is an outstanding reciever, but the Saints have no viable threat at the number 2 position. Henderson had good numbers last year, but remember he was the 3rd reciever. Those catches he made last year at times was when both Joe Horn and Colston were in the game. David Patten was supposed to be the Veteran replacement, but he seems to still be learning the system, and it is obvious that him and Brees are not on the same page. Henderson looks like he did in '05, dropping balls that should be caught. Another huge let-down, Meecham. Why is he still inactive on game days. Is he that big a bust of a draft pick???. With only one threat at receiving, Colston, it's not a suprise that teams can load up on Mcallister and Bush. Henderson needs to go back to being a number 3 receiver, and Patten and Meecham need to start playing, period.
In addition, was it me or did it seem as though Lance Moore was runnign at half speed each time he returned. Michael Lewis may have been up there in age, but he at least ran full speed when he returned.
to quote a time tested adage - "Age and wisdom will overcome youth and inexperience"

Award-winning monitor for small to medium control rooms.
The CMS 50 is a compact monitoring loudspeaker that is ideal for smaller control rooms. Its design permits listening from 50cm away, while still keeping the possibility of the monitors at a great distance from one another without damaging the soundstage. The 5" mid-woofer reaches down to 55Hz, while offering a controlled bass and a totally linear midrange. The midrange register of the CMS 50 has unequalled neutrality in its price range. The Al-Mg inverted dome tweeter offers outstanding dynamics and a degree of definition in the treble that allow precise measurement of reverb and other effects which are normally very difficult to assess.

We've all been there haven't we? The morning after the night before can be a shameful sight.
This hilarious clip shows disheveled, shame-faced girls trying to make their way home in the morning after a festive night out.
They try to avoid eye contact with passers-by as they try to protect their modesty by pulling down, or hitching up, their tiny dresses.

Electronic Benefit Transfer or EBT is a system for delivering Food Stamp and Families First benefits to eligible Tennesseans. The EBT System does not affect the determination of eligibility for these programs or the level of benefits that customers receive. It is simply a method of delivering the benefits. The issuance of Food Stamp and Families First benefits to needy Tennesseans is performed through the Electronic Benefit Transfer process.
Electronic Benefit Transfer is an on-line system in which food stamp and cash assistance benefits are stored in a central computer database and electronically accessed by customers at a point-of-sale machine via reusable plastic cards. In Tennessee, these EBT cards are called Benefit Security Cards.
Tennessee 's EBT program began in November 1998 with a pilot project involving four counties. The program was then implemented over a period of several months, with full implementation of EBT completed in August 1999. There are many advantages to Tennessee having an EBT system. Food coupons and paper checks are no longer issued and accounted for on a monthly basis. The EBT issuance process is streamlined, safe, and convenient. Other advantages of the EBT process include the following:
Allowing the DHS offices to expedite services and changes
Eliminating customers' monthly trips to the office or waiting on the postman
Automating the delivery process
Helping to eliminate fraud and misuse of benefits
Saving taxpayers' money.
Under Federal law, it is illegal for you to use your EBT card at the following locations: liquor stores, casinos and adult cabarets (strip clubs). The Tennessee Department of Human Services has increased monitoring EBT card usage and enforcement. Effective July 1, 2014 additional penalties will apply if benefits are misused. Restricted businesses are also subject to penalties.

Evening Light 11" x 14" acrylic This painting, because of the time of day, is more tonal than I normally paint. I'd love to hear your comments. My reference photo was from a friend and was taken in our neighborhood
Nice diaphanous light coming through the leaves Sharon.
I love it! is really beautiful Sharon
Sharon, the painting has lovely tones and colors. I am making this next comment only because you asked. You have something that looks like pampas grass coming all the way across the front of your painting. While it is lovely on its own, especially in the way that it picks up the light, it blocks the path of the eye into your painting. Perhaps you should consider taking out either all, or part of it, especially on the lefthand side of the painting.
The light is incredible, so warm. Beautiful job, Sharon!
Sharon, another beautiful work. Reminds me of the old masters. Love your work , as always.
Very nice, Sharon.
amazing work very nice
Thanks for all of the great comments, I'm always encouraged. Margo, noted something that I've been debating with myself about. Photo versus good composition. I was working from a friend's photo that she loves and it shows the line continuous across the front. Hoping for a possible sale I opted to leave it the way she liked it. Margo, I think you made a good suggestion though and I usually try to give the viewer and unobstructed entry into the painting.
Lovely colours :)

cardamom seeds
nutmeg seed
2 teaspoons
caraway seed
whole cloves
whole allspice berries
4 (3 inch)
cinnamon sticks
2 teaspoons
whole peppercorns
1 pinch
crushed saffron threads
2 (1 inch) pieces
fresh ginger root
2 (1 inch) pieces
fresh turmeric (yellow ginger)
large strips of orange zest
large strips of lemon zest
4 cups
1 tablespoon
vanilla extract
2 pounds
1 quart
190 proof grain alcohol
I just got the krupnikas in bottles and it really smells delicious. I couldn't find whole yellow ginger (turmeric) so I used 1.5 tsp of powdered. Grain alcohol is illegal where I live so I used 1.5 quarts of vodka. This yielded almost 2 quarts of krupnikas with the water and honey. Even after settling overnight it has a luscious taste, but it is quite cloudy. I plan to let it sit 3 weeks and have a little on Christmas and then keep the rest for at least a year to mellow.
Having made my own Krupnikas for the last 30 years, there are a few things I'd like to say. First and foremost NEVER heat this drink in a microwave! You're using grain alcohol, for cryin' out loud! There are many Krupnikas recipes out there. This seems like a good one...similar to mine with the exception of a few spices that I leave out and a few others I put in. (For example, I use vanilla bean vs vanilla extract and I put it in the pot with the other spices.) Also, I never drink it warm...cool is best...but my Krupnikas is a full 80 proof. It's the real deal, made for shots. The basics are there, though...so if you're making this for the first time, don't sweat it if you're missing an ingredient or 2. Most can be found on line at good spice websites like Penzeys. To a previous comment: Everclear IS grain alcohol...whatever brand you have works fine.

couldn't get our hands on fresh turmeric root, so used 1,5 tsp dried instead as per a previous review. this made it a little bit difficult to strain, but patience paid off, and we've finally sampled it after having it stand for about 2 months. fantastic. we've had some at room temperature and we're totally blown away. interested to know what it's like when heated, but not expecting a bad result. :)
Takes awhile to make, but well worth the wait! After the 2 week wait you will not be disappointed! I now make it every winter.
I haven't made this yet, but just wanted to know if you can make it without boiling the honey, just adding it directly to the mixture as it is my understanding that heating honey ruins any of the medicinal qualities that honey has. Has anyone tried making it without boiling the honey or think it would work out okay to just add it without heating? PS, I'm just rating this as how desirable it sounds so I can post my question. Thanks for any input.
I screwed up a bit and used too much honey relative to the alcohol and spiced water, too sweet but still pretty good.
I have made this the last two Christmases as gifts. Problem is, we have trouble making enough to have any left by the time the holidays roll around. I actually have started to save a few "vintage" bottles and my '08 bottles are great. Truly gets better with age. Everyone who I've ever served it to liked it, two things everyone disagrees about: 1) if it's better to drink hot or cold (definitely hot for medicinal purposes!) and 2) whether to shake up the sediment or to leave it the beautiful golden color. Everyone seems divided about both! There are a couple of ingredients I have never been able to find - but others have suggested substitutions that seem to work well.

Bressler, Seilo Score to Lead Bearcats' Win Over Augsburg
SANTA CRUZ, CA — Donald Bressler and Zach Seilo each scored goals as the Willamette University men's soccer team raised its record to 2-0 with a 2-0 victory over Augsburg Saturday afternoon in Santa Cruz.
Bressler scored the first Willamette goal in the 29th minute when Erik Jacobsen's shot was deflected off of an Augsburg defender to Bressler who drilled one just inside the right post. It was Jacobsen's second assist of the season and Bressler's first goal.
Seilo scored the second Willamette goal in the 68th minute when he headed in a perfectly placed corner kick from Mike Rodrigues.
Dane Meier (pictured above) picked up his second straight shutout as he recorded five saves. Augsburg got off 16 shots in the second half and had a 22-10 edge in shots for the game, but Meier and the Bearcat defense would not crack.
The Bearcats stay in southern California for a Monday match against UC Santa Cruz before returning to Salem for a September 10 game at Corban College.

EDL marches lead to violent clashes as anger takes a hold of Bristol city centre's streets
Posted: July 16, 2012|
THE huge operation to police the English Defence League's Bristol protest swung into action from around 10am, as officers began to arrive in Redcliffe Wharf, the starting point for the march.
Police in riot gear lined Welsh Back and Mill Avenue, directing traffic away from the area, while many of the exits into Queen Square, where the march would end with a rally, were sealed off.
EDL supporters started to arrive at around 10.30am. Some had come from Temple Meads station, where the first clashes with opposing protesters had taken place. Others arrived in vans with St George flags draped across the windows.
A small group, believed to be from the Midlands, were escorted by police as they walked across Redcliffe Bridge, clapping and chanting "Whose streets? Our streets" as they made their way to the meeting point. A few hundred metres away, opposite the Hippodrome, counter protesters from We Are Bristol were chanting the same slogan.

English Defence League (EDL) plans "peaceful protest" march in Bristol in December
Keeping an eye on them were a team of 24 mounted police – some of the 1,000 officers from Cornwall to Yorkshire who had been drafted in to take part in the operation.
More EDL supporters arrived in coaches and minibuses, many wearing the far-right organisation's red, white and black sweatshirts.
Before the march started, EDL members spoke about their reasons for taking part. John Rose, 45, from Redfield, said: "No one is denying that there is a problem with immigration in this country but the Government seems to look after the immigrants more than its own people. It's not OK for an OAP to stay freezing for a week in the winter before they get a fuel payment."
Mike Dyer, 32, from Hartcliffe, said: "What we love about Bristol is that it is a multi-cultural city. What we don't like is people coming here and trying to turn our country into a sharia state. If you want to come here you should abide by our laws, so that we can all live together quite happily."
The next clash with anti-fascist protesters was outside St Mary Redcliffe church. Bottles were thrown as police with batons and dogs battled to keep the two sides – each about 100 strong and separated by a metal road barrier – apart.
As their opponents were kept outside the church, EDL supporters were shepherded by the police to a cordoned-off area outside the Colosseum pub where a Bristol banner for the group could be seen.
EDL marchers were then guided into the car park at Redcliffe Wharf, constantly heckled.
Ronell Sabener, 52, from Bristol, who was among the anti-fascist protesters, said: "We have not got any problems in Bristol. The EDL has got the wrong end of the stick coming here."
Watching on were Bristol students Jessica Meechan, 20, and 19-year-old Bridie Daly.
Jessica said: "I came down to the protest because I am totally against racism. I did not think it would be like this and I certainly do not welcome this sort of protest."
Bridie said: "I am angry that these people have taken over our city. Bristol is a peaceful place and there is no need for this sort of protest here."
A further group of around 50 EDL supporters arrived at just after 12.30pm, flanked by police.
They included some with a banner for the group's Weston-super-Mare division, who were greeted with applause and cheers.
Rocks were thrown by some within the EDL crowd at people lining Redcliffe Parade above the car park and meeting point.
As the march started, police flanked the EDL as they made their way across Redcliffe Bridge and into Welsh Back. Many businesses had chosen to close during the march, including the Hole in the Wall and The Spyglass Barbecue and Grill.
Some residents watched the march, which was led by three shaven-headed men draped in England flags and a transgender member, who said she was called Jane.
Police formed a barricade on the corner of Crow Lane to prevent any clashing with counter-demonstrators standing on Bristol Bridge.
The procession then made its way to Queen Square, where the EDL supporters listened to speeches by members Tony Curtis and Kevin Carroll.
Mr Curtis told them: "The Bristol Against Fascism group said the EDL was violent, fascist thugs. We are not the ones going round with bombs in our cars – the only people that are doing this is the Islamics. I expect an apology for this comment, although I am not holding my breath."
Mr Curtis thanked the police for working with the EDL on the march to ensure it passed off safely.
He added: "We have a right to be here and a right to say what we are saying."
As the rally ended, EDL members were guided by police to exit Queen Square through the exit by the Hole in the Wall bar.
As the EDL members were kept on the bridge, tensions started to rise again as anti-fascist protesters had started to gather on the other side of Redcliffe Wharf by the roundabout.
As those who had come by coach and minibus walked back into Redcliffe Wharf, they traded insults with people lining Redcliffe Parade above them.
Then trouble started to flare as people in the EDL crowd began to throw rocks and stones up at the people taunting them.
Bottles and rocks were then thrown back down towards the EDL supporters below, and police forcibly cleared the area.
On Redcliffe Way, officers donned riot gear and prepared to push back counter-protesters so the EDL members could be guided through the city and on to Temple Meads.
But as the police waited for the protesters to disperse, several young men, wearing hooded tops and with their faces covered, began dragging large wheelie bins from close to the Ramada Hotel, turning them over in the road to form a barrier.
Rubbish inside the bins was set ablaze as the police moved forward.
And then came the most frightening scenes of the day, as mounted officers charged down Redcliffe Way, with protesters and members of the public who had been watching having to run to get out of the way.
Just before the charge, police tried to move on a group of protesters holding a large green banner, which ended up almost being wrapped around a horse.
Others pelted police with bottles and vegetables found in the bins and lumps of concrete.
As the charge swept the protesters on to Temple Way and Victoria Street, one man was grappled to the ground by five police as officers followed a command of "draw batons and charge".
The trouble continued on to the Temple Circus roundabout, with riot vans and officers forcing the protesters up along Victoria Street.
Spectator Imran Ali, 38, from Easton, was shocked by what he saw.
He said: "I am just a normal resident of Bristol who came out to watch what I thought would be a peaceful protest
"The behaviour by these anti-fascist protesters is outrageous."
As police cordoned off the roundabout and surrounding roads, the remaining EDL members were brought along Redcliffe Way.
Officers maintained a deep cordon around the group to stop the two sides from clashing.
At one point a number of EDL supporters, goaded by chants of "Nazi scum" and "shame on you", attempted to break the cordon.
But police held firm and continued to slowly guide the group to the rear entrance of Temple Meads railway station.

Mr. Edward Knight—
First Name:
Last Name:
Father: Unknown
Mother: Unknown
Born: circa 1777
Died: ?
Edward Knight has no children listed here.
- Married Elizabeth Coombs on ?
Mary Crode had one daughter and died in 1777. The possible scenario was that George II, left a widow with young daughter, married again quickly, in 1778 to Lydia Slade. So did Mary Crode die in childbirth, but the baby survived and was put to fosterparents; Hence Edward Knight Gale. It seem the most likely possibility of all the other far-fetched ideas, but I think it has no place in this story, unless someone comes up with some factsEdward Knight was born ca 1777 at Loders (1851 census). he married Elizabeth Coombs at Maiden Newton, nov 8, 1802, and they had ten children. I have lots about them, but his first (and last) appearance as Edward Knight Gale when he married is a complete mystery to all who have an interest, and there are many. I think it is wrong to include him at all, as he has not yet been shown to be related to anyone, My thought that he might have been the son of George K. II is only one of several possible scenarios, but has no hard evidence to back it up. why Gale?

text: Germany is country where automobile making is the main stream of the countries economy and one can have a really good chance of doing business in this city. On one of my business trips to this place I came across the Savoy Berlin which was a very good hotel and it has red carpet welcome awaiting its guests. The lobby of the hotel reminded one of the Arabian night sequences as there was an oriental looking chandelier and there were green plants in reception area of the hotel. The room of the hotel is very large and it has got a very fine interior. There is a very thick bed in the hotel and there are paintings on the walls of the hotel. There are lovely looking sofas in the room also. There is a very fine carpet on the floor of the room. This hotel was a treat to stay in. .

Federal funds enabled a face-lift for Washington Avenue in 2003, complete with lights beaming up from the street. The state handed out millions in tax credits to anybody rehabbing historic buildings. But most crucially, the city offered juicy tax incentives to developers. For a time, they even agreed to forgive tens of thousands of dollars in loans if a business stuck around for five years.
"We wanted downtown to start booming," says former mayor Freeman Bosley Jr., who now represents the Trupianos.
The siblings opened Lucky's at 1204 Washington Avenue in 2006. Two years later, they transformed it into Lure. The grand opening was a swimsuit fashion show.
By that point, the Trupianos had owned, co-owned, helped launch or managed five establishments from Laclede's Landing to Kirkwood: Rum Jungle, the Drink, the Bubble Room, Dolce' and Lucky's.
Taking a cue from the city's crackdown, the Post-Dispatch recently ran an exposé of the Trupianos' track record. Their bars and restaurants reportedly racked up more than 50 local or state violations from 2002 to the present, including fights, underage drinking and a giant brawl outside Dolce' in April 2008.
"We were young when we got into this business," says 32-year-old Tony Trupiano. "There have been growing pains." From Lure's opening in June 2008 to the recent brouhaha, he often repeats, the club had an unblemished record with the excise division.
Bob Kraiberg, who has been the city's excise commissioner for 23 years, says the Trupianos' management problems go much further back than Lure.
Asked whether the club's clean record until July was indicative of progress, Kraiberg demurs.
"Well, they seem cooperative. But that's kind of like saying, 'Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the theater?'"
In the wee hours of Friday, June 11, two policemen standing on St. Charles Street watched a mob gather in the middle of Tucker Boulevard. Just around the corner on Washington, people were pouring out of Lure's "Red Hott Thursdays."
Over the previous fourteen months, those weekly hip-hop-themed parties had started drawing capacity crowds, mostly African American. Seven fights had broken out inside the club during that time, five of them between young females (and in four of those, Lure management says, hair weaves were yanked out). The situation on this night in June looked more ominous.
When fists started flying in the street, officers called for backup. They set off across Tucker toward a parking lot where even more fights were raging. A black male with an assault rifle was already there, watching them. He fired several rounds in their direction as they approached. The officers dived for cover behind their patrol cars and heard the squealing of tires.
If that incident wasn't enough to get city hall's attention, the next one surely was. And ironically, it had nothing to do with Lure.
At 1:00 a.m. on Monday, July 19, two groups of young men in the parking lot at Locust and 14th streets started jawing at each other after an eighteen-and-up event at Sugar Lounge. According to a witness, one young man said, "We don't fight." He ran over to a car, opened the hood, pulled out a gun and shot three of his adversaries, one in the neck.
The next day, Jeff Rainford, Mayor Francis Slay's chief of staff, decided to get involved. "There had been two shootings," he recalls, "and people were like, 'Are you gonna do something about it, or are you gonna wait until somebody dies?'"
Rainford met with officials including Police Captain Kenneth Keigel, commander of the city's fourth district. He learned that the "problem properties unit" of the city counselor's office had already sent cease-and-desist letters to three downtown nightclubs — Lure, Club 15 and Sugar Lounge — owing to "disturbances and other unruly behavior."
Tony Trupiano knew about the cease-and-desist letter, but his brother Nick didn't. While sitting at a bar just after 9 p.m. on July 19, Nick peered up at the screen in shock as Charles Jaco of KTVI-TV (Channel 2) announced that the city was cracking down on all three clubs.
In a panic, Nick Trupiano hopped in his truck and sped to city hall, where Jaco was reporting live.
"I talked to him," Trupiano recalls, "and he took the racist stuff and ran with it."
The next morning, Jaco broke the news that the Trupianos were accusing city hall of wanting to expel blacks from the loft district. Certain unnamed city officials, the siblings claimed, had let it be known: Get rid of the cognac, Grey Goose vodka and Red Hott Thursdays, and all of your problems will disappear.
The following day, the Trupianos hung banners in Lure's front window: "Downtown Doesn't Like Black People" and "Jim Crow Is Alive and Well in Downtown St. Louis."
On July 21, Police Chief Dan Isom felt compelled to say of the Trupianos, "I think it would be better for them to sit down and work with us."
Here was a black police chief calling out a group of ethnic Italians for bemoaning racism — against blacks. "It's not about race," Isom calmly told the news cameras that day. "It is about behavior."
The siblings' truculent response scored them no points at city hall, either. If they had a philosophical case to make about where their responsibilities should end and the government's should begin, this wasn't it — or at least, this wasn't a tone conducive to dialogue.

Speaking with GameSpot at the Xbox One reveal event, executive Phil Spencer said Microsoft understands the importance of the secondhand market in the overall console ecosystem.
He declined to go into specifics regarding how used games will be supported on the Xbox One, but did make clear that the secondhand market "is a design criteria" for the next-gen Xbox.
"So we'll talk about some of the 'how' at a later date, but I will say that we understand the importance of the secondary market," Spencer said. "The secondary market was important in the current generation. We designed Xbox One understanding secondary market would be important in the new generation as well. We'll share more details, but people should know that it is a design criteria for us on the new box."
Microsoft told Wired yesterday that the Xbox One will require secondhand users pay a fee to play used games. This fee has not been specified and Microsoft's official stance is that the platform has been designed "to enable our customers to trade in and resell games at retail."
More from GameSpot's conversation with Spencer will be published later today. This interview was conducted by GameSpot executive editor Justin Calvert during the Xbox One announcement event in Redmond, Washington yesterday.

DoTerra Essential Oil:
Vetiver Essential Oil
Vetiveria zizanoides
Vetiver is loved for its rich, exotic, and complex aroma. Used extensively in perfumes as a base note and fixative, vetiver's woody, earthy scent complements many other essential oils. Vetiver also has many therapeutic uses, including as an antioxidant and for relaxation.
For aromatic, topical, or dietary use
Vetiver, with its calming properties, has been known to dispel anger, hysteria and irritability. Further, even neurotic behavior stemming from stress and tension has been reduced.
Properties: Antispasmodic, antiseptic, grounding, calming, rebefacient, immune stimulant, stimulant, sedative.
Historical Uses: Vetiver roots have been as a perfume.
Possible Uses: doTERRA vetiver essential oil may help anorexia, acne, breasts (enlargement), anxiety, cuts, arthritis, depression, muscular rheumatism, insomnia, skin care, nervousness, stress, and sprains.
Aromatic Guide: Diffusing vetiver essential oil may help relieve stress and to recover from emotional shock and trauma. A natural tranquilizer, can help induce a restful sleep.
- Topically – Can be applied neat directly to the skin. Apply directly to the area of concern or to reflex points.
- Aromatically – Diffuse doTERRA vetiver essential oil.
- Internally – doTERRA vetiver oil can be taken internally. Take using gel capsules or directly with food or beverage. Vetiver is classifed as a Food Additive (FA) and Flavoring Agent (FL) by the FDA.
Native to India, the grass also grows in Java, the Seychelles, Reunion, Brazil, Haiti and Japan. Its nature as the oil of tranquility is reflected in a dark amber liquid that is so thick and almost treacle-like. It is a beautiful oil for the home as it can help with many day to day ailments.
Here are the five reasons to love vetiver essential oil:
Reason #1: Vetiver essential oil is deeply relaxing
Known as the oil of tranquility, it is beneficial for anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, insomnia or depression. It is a nervine (strengthens the nerves and nervous system) and sedative (reduces nervousness, distress and agitation) therefore the perfect oil to help you ground, relax and balance yourself in "I want to scream and pull my hair out" moments.
Reason #2: Vetiver essential oil is great for skin, especially wrinkles and stretchmarks
Its vulnerary (prevent tissue regeneration and promotes wound healing) and cicatrisant (promotes formation of scar tissue) properties make it excellent for healing tired and stressed skin.
It is excellent for revitalizing skin after childbirth to minimize stretchmarks. It can also help with cuts, wounds and scars. It is helpful in daily skincare in the treatment of dry, dehydrated skin as well as bruises. Very moisturizing, it can even be used in facial blends for wrinkles. It is up there with a woman's best friend.
Reason #3: Vetiver essential oil is very effective at relieving muscular aches
Vetiver oil is rubefacient (meaning it's warming and increases blood flow) and therefore superb in the treatment of general body aches and pains, bruises, rheumatism and arthritis.
The use of vetiver in a massage blend is a deeply relaxing treatment that soothes aches and pains and is highly recommended for anyone with sore joints. Very good for massage in stressful times that manifest into a very sore and achy body.
Reason #4: Vetiver essential oil is superb at helping PMS and menopausal issues
Vetiver oil is an excellent oil to have in the house when there are women around (of any age!). Whether it is you that suffers PMS or menopausal symptoms or the person you live with, vetiver essential oil is a star in helping to regulate hormones!
It is said to regulate the secretion of estrogen and progesterone, making it very helpful during menopause. Its cooling action also helps with hot flushes and its grounding action helps to balance the emotions.
PMS can be caused by estrogen deficiency and therefore is helpful for the same reasons as menopause. Its uplifting and grounding nature can help with unbalanced emotions during the menstrual period.
Reason #5: Vetiver essential oil is great for the digestive system
Vetiver oil is able to support the body's restorative, absorptive and anabolic functions. It is therefore useful for stimulating a poor appetite, for weight loss, in cases of anemia and malabsorption. It is also said to be helpful for a congested liver and pancreas.
Vetiver oil is a gounding and uplifting essential oil great for revitalizing the skin, relaxing the mind and relieving muscular aches and pains, treating PMS and menopausal symptoms and helping with digestive complaints.
For the oil burner or diffuser it blends excellently with essential oils of frankincense, grapefruit, lemon, sandalwood and ylang ylang.
Typical Applications
Apply 3-4 drops of vetiver to a child's back or the bottom of their feet using a carrier oil immediately following a shower and prior to bed time. With experience combine vetiver with a balancing, uplifting, or relaxing blend to enhance the help. The synergistic combination with a single oil such as lavender, ylang ylang or clary sage will also be effective.
Application has also historically proven helpful through the olfactory system (inhalation). Prepare a tissue cup or inhaler to be used when anxiety or other symptoms of ADHD are felt.

The chemo didn't work, neither did the experimental therapy. When Nikki Matthews learns she is dying of lung cancer and has only has six months to live, she abandons Los Angeles and flees to Shadow Mountain, Colorado…a place where she always wanted to live…a place where she can die in peace. Despite her intentions of no friends and no attachments, she meets Michael de Roumare. Half French and half Arapaho, the residents of Shadow Mountain treat Michael with hatred and contempt. Nikki is not sure why and try as she might, she cannot deny her growing attraction to the handsome young man.
Michael has known only hell the past year, falsely accused of rape and disfiguring a young woman, the jury found him not guilty but he was tried and convicted in the press – a vicious, backwater half-breed. Then, to his horror, someone starts killing the women in Michael's life and framing him for their murders. The residents of Shadow Mountain now fear a serial killer walks among them and they are certain the vicious murderer is Michael.
Nikki came here to die. She never planned on finding a righteous goal, she never planned on fighting for the truth, but she has found that with Michael and perhaps…just perhaps…she might find something more in the short time she has…as long as the killer doesn't reach her first.

Mooresville, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - Turner Scott Motorsports announced on Tuesday that it has ceased operations of its No. 30 team in the Camping World Truck Series.
In a news release, TSM said it had taken the "regrettable but necessary steps" to layoff 18 employees from the company as a result of ending operations of its No. 30 truck team.
Ron Hornaday Jr., a four-time champion in the series, has driven the No. 30 Chevrolet Silverado for TSM since the start of the 2014 season. Hornaday competed in the first 13 truck races this year, but he and the No. 30 team were absent from last weekend's event at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville, Canada. The 56-year-old driver had finished a season-best third at Michigan and Bristol prior to Canada. He is currently sixth in the point standings.
TSM had two truck entries for the race in Canada. Ben Kennedy drove the No. 31 truck to a 15th-place finish, while Canadian Cameron Hayley placed 11th in the No. 32 entry.
"The decision to layoff any employee is painful, and we realize the affects it has on their lives," said Harry Scott, whose investment firm is a co-owner of TSM. "However, the decisions made by TSM today are necessary and the responsible steps for all of TSM to ensure our commitment to our employees, partners and fans to be as competitive as possible. The company notified employees this afternoon and will do all it can to help those affected to find new roles in the industry."
TSM has multiple teams in the Nationwide Series. Rookie Dylan Kwasniewski is running a full schedule for the organization in Nationwide, and Kyle Larson, who is a Sprint Cup Series regular, is competing in most races.
Scott owns HScott Motorsports, a full-time Sprint Cup team with driver Justin Allgaier.


text: Education scholarships available through Project HAPPENS MAY 30, 2014 Participants take part in a Project HAPPENS workshop.Courtesy Photo HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (May 30, 2014) - Project HAPPENS is currently accepting scholarship applications from pre- and in-service teachers interested in pursuing licensure in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) in Alabama. A professional development grant, Project HAPPENS is funded by the U.S. Department of Education and administered by Dr. Jason O'Brien and Dr. Andrea Word at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH). Scholarships cover tuition and fees for up to five classes, at either the undergraduate or graduate level, that will prepare recipients for licensure in ESOL. The purpose of the scholarship, says Dr. Word, is to prepare teachers for increasingly diverse classroom environments. "According to our project liaison at Huntsville City Schools, Ann Marie Batista, there are more than 950 English language learners in the Huntsville City School district alone, with 30 languages represented among them." What's more, Dr. Word continues, "over the past twenty years or so, English learner populations have increased by more than 200% in many states - Alabama included! The ability to differentiate instruction for students from a variety of language backgrounds is increasingly essential for every P-12 educator in Alabama and across the country." In addition to the scholarships, the $1.2 million grant also funds an annual series of four professional development workshops for administrators and in-service teachers. "These workshops are delivered on the UAH campus to up to 75 registrants per year and are eligible for state-certified Professional Learning Units and Continuing Education Units," says Dr. O'Brien. And since the workshops are held on Thursdays and Fridays, "the grant covers the cost of substitutes during the school year as well as stipends for teachers who attend during off-contract periods," he says. The next cohort starts this summer, with the four one-day workshops scheduled in July, September, and December of 2014 and February of 2015. Those interested in applying for a tuition scholarship can complete the undergraduate scholarship application or graduate scholarship application online. Those interested in registering for the workshop series can complete the Project HAPPENS interest form or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

text: Home > News and Events > Real Richness Campaign > Things to Do Real Richness: Things To Do In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, we've forgotten life's simple pleasures. Like spending time with loved ones, reading, storytelling, barbecuing, playing ball, cycling, exploring and sleeping under the stars. A camping holiday is a rich mix of activities, with plenty to fi ll your day. As a couple or as a family, you'll share wonderful times and recall priceless moments − like the fish that got away or the time your kids built their own forest shelter. Broadening young minds Kids love camping; in their eyes there's nothing better. They get space to play and time to explore. The safe feeling of the campsite allows a new-found freedom, helping them to develop their independence and make new friends. At some sites there are exciting activities like pony trekking and mountain biking whilst at Forest Holiday Sites, kids can enjoy fascinating glimpses of nature and wildlife with the Forest Rangers. Getting out and about For couples especially, half the fun of camping is being free to explore. To follow nature trails and coastal paths. To visit historic buildings, famous gardens and landmarks. To seek out the best country pubs and local markets. Or to enjoy a city break or activity holiday, using your chosen site as a convenient base.

Sony has sold about 77 million PlayStation 3s since its launch in 2006, starting at $500 each. The new model is expected to be cheaper, and it should be available in time for the holidays. The company says the PlayStation 4 will focus on social networking features and cloud-based games.

By George A. Kramer, DVM, DACVIM (Cardiology) Chief of Staff Atlantic Coast Veterinary Specialists Since the recent licensing and widespread availability of Vetmedin (pimobendan) in the U.S., many claims concerning the drug have been made and it is frequently described as a "wonder drug" on various Internet sites. As a cardiologist and someone who has used the drug extensively for five years, I´d like to pass along information concerning the drug to our referring veterinarians. When used appropriately, the drug can be of benefit in treating dogs in heart failure. But it is not a wonder drug and there are concerns that should be taken into account when using the drug. The manufacturer's [Boehringer Ingelheim] own FDA licensing studies show that the drug is no better than enalapril in treating heart failure due to chronic valvular disease or dilated cardiomyopathy. As with any drug, the prescriber should be well aware of the drug's mechanism of action, indications for use, benefits, side effects, and potential negative interactions with other drugs. Pimobendan is … … a benzimidazole pyridazinone derivative. It is classified as an inodilator and has a dual mode of action. It causes vasodilation through phosphdiesterase III inhibition and it causes an increase in cardiac contractility through increased Ca++ sensitization of the cardiac myofilaments. There is also mild inhibition of phosphodiesterase V activity. The increase in contractility is achieved by increasing the efficiency within the cardiac myofibrils without an increase in myocardial energy requirements. This is an important distinction from adrenergic agents that increase contractility but cause the cardiac myocyte to use more ATP. The vasodilator effect of pimobendan reduces both afterload and preload of the peripheral and coronary vasculature. The vasodilation that occurs involves both the peripheral and coronary vasculature. Pimobendan is highly protein-bound and consideration should be give to the animal's serum albumin concentration when dosing the drug. Additionally, treatment with pimobendan should be monitored carefully if used in conjunction with other drugs that have high protein binding properties. There is first pass hepatic metabolism (O-desmethylation) which produces the active metabolite. The drug is cleared from the body via fecal excretion. Pimobendan should be used only in dogs that are symptomatic for heart failure (modified NYHA class II-IV). The recommended dose is 0.25mg/kg BID. The drug is used in both dogs with DCM and chronic valvular heart disease. It may have more value in dogs with DCM due to the positive inotropic effect since all dogs with DCM have decreased myocardial contractility. Most dogs with chronic valvular heart disease do not have decreased contractility and do not need positive inotropic support. Both types of heart disease benefit from the vasodilator properties of the drug. According to Boehringer-Ingelheim, "treatment should be initiated only in symptomatic cases which will benefit from increased myocardial contractility (positive inotropy)." The drug is often used in combination with other cardiac drugs used for the treatment of heart failure (e.g. furosamide, ACE-inhibitors, digoxin, spironolactone, nitrates). It probably should not be used in conjunction with other phosphodiesterase inhibitors (e.g. theophylline, aminophylline, etc.) and should not be used concurrently with sympathomimetic inotropic agents (e.g. dobutamine). Concurrent use with a beta-blocker or calcium channel blocker may attenuate the positive inotropic action of pimobendan. Adverse side effects that have been reported after clinical use include tachycardia, vomiting, diarrhea, inappetence, incoordination, convulsions, polyuria, and polydypsia. Dose-dependent cardiotoxic effects include damage to the chordae tendineae that can lead to rupture, thickening of the mitral valve, and jet lesions on the endocardial surfaces. The lesions seem to be associated with the positive inotropic properties of the drug. These findings raise concerns that, used inappropriately in dogs with chronic valvular disease, pimobendan could lead to left atrial tears or rupture of the chordae tendineae. There is a report out of Europe that documents negative effects on the heart and worsening of the mitral regurgitation in dogs chronically treated with pimobendan for valvular disease. The changes were reversed when the drug was discontinued. There is also a concern that the drug could predispose the heart to tachyarrhythmias and lead to an increased incidence of sudden death. Although pimobendan has been shown to cause a dose-dependent tachycardia, no studies to date have documented an increased risk of sudden death. One study comparing pimobendan to enalapril showed an increase in ventricular ectopy after 14 days of treatment. Pimobendan augments exocytotic release of insulin secretory granules from pancreatic islet cells in a dose-dependent manner by directly sensitizing the intracellular Ca++-sensitive exocytotic mechanism. It has been suggested by some that this mechanism could lead to an increase in diabetes in patients chronically treated with pimobendan. There have been reports of diabetes developing in a few patients enrolled in pimobendan treatment studies. However, the significance of that occurrence is not clear. There have been a number of studies over the last few years examining the effects of pimobendan on the treatment of heart failure in dogs. Most have shown that pimobendan is as effective or slightly more effective than ACE-inhibitors in treating heart failure. The most promising study was that of Dr. Christophe Lombard, a veterinary cardiologist from the University of Bern in Switzerland. His study looked at 76 dogs in heart failure caused by atrioventricular valvular disease. Half of the dogs were treated with the ACE-inhibitor benazapril and the other half received pimobendan. The benazapril group had a mean survival of 128 days compared to 415 days for the pimobendan group. This study suggests that dogs in heart failure that are treated with pimobendan live approximately 9 months longer than those treated with an ACE-inhibitor. This is one of the studies that serves as the basis for many of the "wonder drug" claims. However, the study needs to be evaluated critically. It is a relatively small sample size and stands in contrast to the larger FDA clinical trial that showed pimobendan to be equivalent to the ACE-inhibitor enalapril in treating heart failure. Additionally, the benazapril-treated group seems to have a much shorter median survival than would typically be expected of a population of dogs with heart failure caused by chronic valvular disease when treated by a veterinary cardiologist. Many new studies are underway that I am sure will help advance our understanding of this drug. There is some debate among veterinary cardiologists about when to use the drug and with what combination of other drugs. There is no single answer. As my friend and former cardiology mentor Dr. Jim Ross always used to say: "It depends." It depends on the clinical presentation, progression over time of the underlying lesion (i.e. valvular insufficiency or cardiomyopathy), the condition of the heart as seen via echocardiogram, presence or absence of arrhythmias, concurrent diseases, and the clinical response to first-line treatment of the congestive heart failure episode. Only when all of those factors are taken into consideration can an appropriate treatment plan be made. Pimobendan is an important new drug in our battle against heart disease in dogs when used appropriately, but it should not be added to the drinking water as was once jokingly suggested about enalapril when that was the new "wonder drug" several years ago. • Back to newsletter

- " Nor, the frontdesk man was very nice and helpful. The location of the hostel is right in the Old City, in the Christian Quarter, close to everything. There were lots of places to sit/common rooms inside and out, which was great. There was also a nice panorama of the Old City from the roof, as well, pretty, but not the best for a very tall person like me! The room was basic, the bed was clean with lots of blankets. There was no heater in the room and the bathroom was old and not clean. "

Nose Surgery Candidates
Rhinoplasty Candidates
Rhinoplasty can accomplish different things for different people. A nose job can increase or decrease the size of your nose and it can also be used to alter the shape of the bridge, tip, nostrils, and/or the angle between the nose and upper lip. For people with breathing difficulties, rhinoplasty may be able to correct structural problems inside the nose. In most cases, incisions can be hidden within the nostrils or across the thin strip of skin between the nostrils (known as the columella). This means that you can achieve your new nose without any telltale scarring.
Rhinoplasty candidates seek out Dr. Fredric Newman because he has the skill to correct virtually all of the many different issues that can be addressed with a nose job. Explore the page below to find out if you are a candidate for rhinoplasty or schedule a nose job consultation to discuss your concerns with Dr. Newman.
Is a nose job right for me?
Most men and women in good health can receive a nose job. A consultation will determine whether you are a candidate. Rhinoplasty is performed on patients of almost all ages, though young people are usually advised to wait until they complete their facial growth – usually somewhere between ages 13 and 15. It is also important for a young person's parent or guardian to explore the reasons behind a desire to have rhinoplasty.
When you come to our office for your rhinoplasty consultation, Dr. Newman will examine the inner structure of your nose, the condition of your skin, the size and shape of your nose, and how it relates to your other facial features. This consultation provides the best opportunity to find out if a nose job is right for you.
Enhance your Appearance
Cosmetic surgeons frequently recommend chin surgery if a more or less prominent chin will improve a patient's facial proportions.
Correct Breathing Difficulties
Turbinectomy is sometimes recommended to open the nasal air passages. The procedure reduces the projections of the turbinate – internal structures that warm and add moisture to the air flowing through the nose.
Septoplasty is often a solution for a septum that has deviated to block the air passages. For more information about this type of nose job procedure please contact The Aesthetic Surgery Center.
Common Aesthetic Concerns
People with the following concerns can usually benefit from a nose job:
- A disproportionately large nose
- A wide nose
- A bump or indentation along the edge of the nose
- A bulbous nasal tip
- A nasal tip that droops
- Flared nostrils
- Nasal asymmetry
- Impaired breathing from an obstruction in the nose
Wide Bridge/Hump
A wide bridge or significant hump is one of the most common reasons for a patient to elect to undergo a nose job at The Aesthetic Surgery Center of Connecticut near New York. A nose job for a wide bridge can be performed for cosmetic purposes or to repair the internal structure of the bridge and make breathing easier. This type of nose job can take from one to two hours to complete, depending on your specific circumstances.
If you have a hump on the bridge of your nose, Dr. Newman will use a special tool to reduce the size of the hump. To correct a wide bridge, Dr. Newman will fracture the bones and, in some cases, remove excess cartilage. He will then move the bones together, creating a narrower bridge and a more refined appearance.
Wide Nostrils
The flair or width of the nostrils is another common concern among patients who undergo nose job procedures. Dr. Newman can create a narrower nose by changing the way the skin lies at the bottom of the nose. In a procedure known as "minimizing wedges", Dr. Newman removes small wedges of skin from the base of the nostrils, where they meet the cheeks. Dr. Newman then carefully closes the trimmed area with fine sutures, eliminating the risk of visible scars. With the nostrils positioned closer together, the flare of the nostrils is reduced, the tip appears more refined, and the entire nose appears more slender.
Enlarged Tip
In addition to seeking a remedy for a wide bridge or hump or flaring nostrils, a patient can choose to have a nose job to correct a boxy or bulbous tip. Many of our patients feel that the tips of their noses are too large, project too far forward, or hang down too far. This issue is relatively simple to fix by trimming the cartilage in the tip and reshaping it. Additionally, trimming the septum, or the thin partition between the nostrils, can improve the angle of the nose to the upper lip, eliminating the "hooked" quality that some noses possess.
To find out which type of nose job will most benefit you, contact our plastic surgery center in Darien, Connecticut and schedule a consultation.
Schedule Your Rhinoplasty Consultation Today
Rhinoplasty requires greater precision than perhaps any other cosmetic surgery procedure. Make sure you choose the best surgeon for your nose job procedure. Please contact our office in Fairfield County or complete a rhinoplasty evaluation online to find out if you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty surgery with Dr. Newman.

Editorial Review
Even without gender-specific frame geometry, Felt's impressive ZW3 is very much a women-specific bicycle.
To wit: Although the geometry is virtually identical to that of the unisex, identically priced Z3, the frame's carbon lay-up is not—because female cyclists are typically lighter than men of the same height, engineers use less material in constructing the frame. The result, says Felt marketing director Doug Martin, is a bike that uses the same frame geometry and tube shapes as the company's Z line of plush, road-damping bikes, but will deliver ride sensations more similar to the stiffer F-series race bikes when pedaled by lighter riders. Martin says that most women on the Felt-sponsored Exergy TWENTY12 pro team ride the ZW3 frame, with only the taller riders opting instead for the F-series.
The ZW3 also incorporates female-specific touch points: The bar is narrower than on unisex models, with a slightly shallower drop that's easier to reach. An adjustment on the SRAM Red levers can bring them closer to the handlebar. You also get a shorter stem and a women's saddle from Prologo. The complete SRAM Red group helps make this bike impressively light (15.9 pounds). The ZW3 is competition-worthy (racers will probably want to swap in a standard crank), but it's a fun bike no matter how you ride it.
The ZW3 performed every bit as spectacularly as you'd expect from a pro-level bike; it encouraged me to push myself harder on climbs—and felt natural on both seated and standing ascents. Handling was responsive but not squirrelly on everything from descents to dirt-road detours. And it managed to do all this while remaining comfortable, even after hours in the saddle.
Aesthetically, Felt often opts for an understated look—"when Jim Felt started building bikes [in the late '80s], everything was pretty much black," says Martin. But the details—like the matching blue tires, aluminum headset spacer, and headset bolt—add up to a clean, cohesive look.—Emily Furia
