Loyal Customer Since: 2010
This EO is sweet and a little sharp, but I find it more herbaceous than woody, though it is both. I just sniffed it directly from the bottle and found that it cleared my sinuses. While I don't find myself using this EO quite as much as some of the others I use in perfuming, I still like it a lot. I just think it's a little pricey for not being in my top favorite oils
Loyal Customer Since: 2007
I am a Reiki Master and have created a wonderful smudge with your Hinoki Wood Essential Oil. Last summer I was in Kyoto, Japan on Mt. Kurama. The energy from this trees is amazing. I was so delighted to see this wonderful oil in your collection. It is truly a very high energy oil and blends well with a number of other essential oils. The woody earthy scent is very calming and makes it wonderful for use during meditation and Reiki session with clients. My husband was diagnosed with Bells' Palsey and after reading all the medicinal properties of it I applied Hinoki Wood oil to the facial area where the musceles would be affected by Bells' Palsey. It is viral so being proactive along with his medicine I applied it along nerve pathways of his facial affected area. My husband loved the aroma. The doctor was amazed by his quick recovery. Thank you for carrying this amazing essential oil.
Loyal Customer Since: 2009
I like this, very light, fresh for a wood oil, well worth the money. Should have orded the bigger bottle, next time. Nice collection of good quality oils, Thanks NDA.
Loyal Customer Since: 2008
I purchased this oil to use in my CP soap. I wanted to find something earthy and more masculine. This is PERFECT! Very masculine scent, almost cologne-like.
Loyal Customer Since: 2005
This is a wonderful woody smelling oil. Top quality. I have been using it in my Reiki sessions and my clients love it. Very relaxing.
Loyal Customer Since: 2008
I diffused this Hinoki Wood oil for several hours in our bedroom that had musty smell for about six months. Now the smell has gone and my husband and I sleep much better at night. This oil is very warm and comforting to us. I love it and I recommand to anybody who suffers from fungus which is common to people who live in wet climate area. Only thing I concern is that it's too expensive to buy a large amount at once.

Russian players in pro hockey are often criticized for being too soft and shying away from the physicality the NHL brings. Apparently, that "softness" kicks in as players get older because these 10-year old Russians certainly aren't shying away from anything.
This video comes our way via Puck Daddy and shows a compilation of the mayhem between two teams of 10-year-olds from Moscow and Novokuznetsk. The youth teams met on Sunday, Nov. 25, with the club from Moscow (the Polar Bears) earning a 3-o win when the game was called early, due to all the fighting.
Honestly, pretty awesome stuff.

Forced to explain that "traditionally, Fed chairs and presidents act in concert and without partisanship," Joseph Lawler examines whether a President Gingrich would have the power to let the Bush appointee go as promised:
If Gingrich were elected president, he would find getting rid of Bernanke to be a difficult task. The Fed is structured to remove the influence of politics from monetary policy. Accordingly, the president nominates candidates for the Board of Governors, but, once approved by the Senate, the governors are granted 14-year terms that can't be cut short by the executive branch. The chairman of the Board of Governors, also nominated by the president, is limited to four-year terms, but after he's confirmed the president has no authority to remove him unilaterally. Furthermore, the chairman is also a member of the Board of Governors, so even if President Gingrich were to replace Bernanke when Bernanke's term expires in 2014, Bernanke could choose to fill out the remainder of his 14-year term as a governor.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE -- The case against an alleged tax-skirting, tobacco-trafficking ring that officials have called "organized crime" entered a new phase this week when a Gwinnett County grand jury indicted 41 people.
Indictments handed down in Gwinnett Superior Court include charges of racketeering, possession of cigarettes with counterfeit stamps and possession of unstamped cigarettes. Charges for the suspects -- mostly gas station owners or tobacco wholesalers -- varied based on each person's role in a scheme that spanned multiple Georgia counties, Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens's office said Friday.
Olens has said the ring defrauded Georgia out of millions in tobacco tax revenue.
After a three-year investigation led by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' Atlanta division, 50 arrests were announced in October. The suspects were accused of obtaining counterfeit tax stamps for cigarettes and cigars, then selling them at "tax paid prices" to net substantially higher profits.
The Gwinnett County District Attorney's Office, Lawrenceville Police Department and the Sheriff's Department assisted in the roundup. While many arrests were local, other hotbeds included the Macon area and regions "north of Gwinnett County," officials said. One suspect was tracked down in Guam.
One man connected to the ring, Cajetan Ferio Fernandez, a former employee of an alleged contraband cigarette trafficker, pleaded guilty in Gwinnett Superior Court earlier this year to one count of possession of cigarettes with counterfeit stamps. He was sentenced to one year in confinement.
A DeKalb County grand jury has returned indictments on three other suspects.

why would you even try to make innocent people thiefs? ok you do it first time you arrest them.but why did they keep providing unstamped cig to these people?this whole deal destryoed not only 41 people but their enitre family for rest of their life.. but why? why would you as a cop even approch innocent people with this kind of trap? ok fine they fall for it first time..they could have arrested the first person and that could had avoided ruin everyone elses life..but no they wanted more people to buy this stuff. and they didnt steal tax money..georgia allowed them to steal it. if i go around as a under cover and offer regular people a ipad or a iphone for $50 and when they buy this i tell them"hey i didnt pay tax for this ,,do you think they care? no 80% people will buy it.. this is a case of entrappment..even i heard this cops calls this 41 people to ask them if they need anything? why? this people are hard working , family oriented, never been in any kind of trouble. but just b/c gwinnet county decide,hey lets get this people b/c they have money..and gwinnet county tag this people as gang...they would never had done this if you didnt provide us with cig...i can understand if this guys made a plan and done this themself .but no they done this with help of gwinnett county and they got in trouble.. how they could have avoided all this. guy buys cig from cop. 1st time..arrest him and charge him...but no they countiune providing this for 4 years and made this people criminals. did they kill any one? no. did they sell drungs? no did they cheat anyone? no did they rob anyone? no
i think it was more about money than anything else...
THINK ABOUT THIS; why dont they go and try to sell huge amount of drugs.. who would buy millions from cops .and even if they do..they dont have anymore money..but this case they went to people who work their ass off and saved thier money..made them criminals..
ALL i have to say is to anyone who reads this..They can take away everything from you even you never done anything wrong..
instead of using this time and money to get people who sell drugs or really destroy this world..you guys came after regular people to steal their freedom and their money..
congrats to gwinnett county.

these "innocents" are hardly innocent. they are probably involved in other scams and theiveries and this was the best way to take them out of circulation.
Kat 3 years, 5 months ago
Are you suggesting this was a sting operation? I didn't read that in any of the media releases. Even if it was, no one forces you to break the law. A hard working law abiding family that owns their own business would have said no thank you if offered a chance to increase their profits by avoiding taxes. They knew what they were doing, they got caught. Too bad so sad.
news2me 3 years, 5 months ago
Sorry to hear about your family timmy, but you do realize that organized crime, racketeering and counterfeiting are very serious crimes? Innocent people don't break laws of this magnitude and get slapped on the wrist because you think they are first time offenders. Stop making excuses for people that have broken the law.

It's scams like these that cheat our local governments out of money and cause us to have to shut down schools or other government funded programs. Good job on the arrests.

Japanese firm eyes city for caregiving facility-A A +A
Sunday, March 2, 2014
A JAPANESE-owned company is eyeing to establish a world-class caregiving facility in Catigan, Toril this year, an official said.
Davao City Investments and Promotions Center officer-in-charge Ivan C. Cortez did not disclosed the name of the company, but said the facility will cater mainly to first world countries with aging population.
He said the company has a large Japanese and Chinese clientele.
Cortez said the company may apply for incentives because they will fall under one of DCIPC's preferred investment areas -- health and wellness, educational and sports facilities.
He said the caregiving facility will be a complex established near the World Class Retirement Complex Inc. (WCRCI)'s retirement facility, the Eagle's View Mountain Resort & Residences.
Aside from being a caregiving facility, the institution will also serve as a world-class training center for Dabawemyos who want to become caregivers.
"After the training, the caregivers will be recognized as world-class caregivers and they have the option to remain or go abroad," Cortez said.
He also said the caregivers will be trained and work at the facility at the same time.
Cortez said the caregivers who are in the training program will also be paid.
"They will accommodate around 1,000 trainees for their training program," Cortez said, adding that the trainees will man the three shifts of the facility.
He said the company is expecting to have their groundbreaking by October this year.
Once completed, the facility will have 300 suite rooms with a ratio of one room per patient.

Nargis Fakhri shakes legs at HIL Opening Ceremony
Glamour is not just for Cricket, Golf and Football, now Hockey too has joined the club of showbiz. Recently Hockey India League(HIL) has been inaugurated and the concept is pretty similar to IPL. The event took place in the city of Nawabs, Lucknow at the Dhyan Chand Stadium around 10 am in the morning on 20th January 2013.
A grand launch was organized by the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Mr. Akhilesh Yadav & Sahara India's owner Subrata Roy. The especial performances were presented by Bollywood divas, Katrina Kaif and Nargis Fakhri. Performances by these two Actresses were choreographed by renowned Shiamak Davar.
Katrina looked amazingly glamorous in red saree. She danced on hit tracks, chikni & mashallah.
And our NF shook her legs too on Rockstar songs, Katiyan Karoon & Saada Haq. She started her performance wearing a beautiful red top with a blue ghaghra. Later she removed her ghaghra & showed her sexiness for which she is more known for.
Prior to this stage show, the first match of this league was played between Uttar Pradesh Wizards and Delhi Wave Riders.

N.Z. Dollar Drops to Lowest in Week as Commodities Fall
New Zealand's dollar fell to a one-week low versus its U.S. counterpart as raw-materials prices decreased, damping demand for currencies of commodity-exporting nations.
The currency, nicknamed the kiwi, slid against all of its 16 most-traded counterparts except Brazil's real before data today that may show consumer prices rose at the slowest annual rate in almost two years. The kiwi and Australia's dollar weakened as the Standard & Poor's GSCI Index of 24 raw materials tumbled 1.1 percent, its biggest loss in more than a week.
New Zealand's dollar fell 0.6 percent to 81.59 U.S. cents yesterday in New York and touched 81.46 cents, its weakest level since April 11. The kiwi slipped 0.1 percent to 66.30 yen.
The Aussie dollar depreciated 0.3 percent $1.0359. It was 0.2 percent stronger against the yen at 84.17.
Statistics New Zealand may report that the nation's consumer price index increased 0.5 percent in the first quarter, compared with a 0.3 percent decline in the previous three-month period, according to the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. Prices probably rose 1.6 percent from a year earlier, the slowest annual pace since September 2010.

Amoeba Music
Amoeba Music is an independent music chain with stores in Berkeley, San Francisco, and Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. Founded by former employees of nearby Rasputin Records, it opened on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley in 1990. The stores are unusually large given their independent status. The San Francisco store, which opened in 1997 in the Haight-Ashbury district, is especially notable for its size. Occupying a 24,000 square foot (2,200 m²) former bowling alley, the store regularly stocks upwards of 100,000 CDs, vinyl records, and audio cassettes, both new and used.
The Southern California location was added on November 17, 2001 when the store opened a new branch on Sunset Boulevard (at Cahuenga Boulevard) in Hollywood. (See article.) At the time of its opening, the store planned to stock as many as 250,000 titles, which would place the store among the largest independent music stores in the world. According to Los Angeles Times writer Michael Hiltzik, the location "instantly became a Hollywood landmark." [1]
The stores also trade in movies, though secondarily to their music business. Each location has a smaller collection of movies on DVD, VHS, Laserdisc and Blu-ray Disc. In addition, each store maintains a selection of music-related posters and artwork for purchase, as well as Amoeba-branded merchandise. The Hollywood location has the entire 2nd floor dedicated to DVD and Blu-ray Disc. In addition, Amoeba Music frequently holds free shows during store hours with locally and nationally known artists from a wide variety of genres.
The stores in San Francisco and Hollywood also have a modest selection of new and used video-games for current generation systems (such as the Xbox 360, Wii and the PlayStation 3).
This store is a playable venue in the music game, Guitar Hero World Tour. Paul McCartney recorded his EP Amoeba's Secret at an unannounced live performance at the Hollywood location on 27 June 2007.
Amoeba Music also features an award winning series in their website called What's In My Bag? in which artists, customers, and staff review the items they have found while shopping at the store.

A look at the day's political happenings, including John Boehner's explanation of why he'll never support gay marriage and a CPAC participant's shocking comments on slavery.
The noted homophobe is urging the Boy Scouts of America not to capitulate to the "intolerant liberal mind" and overturn its discriminatory policy of banning gays from joining the youth organization, saying that this is yet "another example of the left attempting to remove God from all areas of public life."
A look at the day's political happenings, including sore loser Rick Santorum's tough talk for the president and why the Republicans' debt ceiling proposal may be a constitutional fail.

The international treaty forbids discrimination against those with disabilities. So why didn't Republicans want to pass it?
A look at the day's political happenings, including the entitlement program top Senate Democrats say is not on the "fiscal cliff" chopping block, and a former Republican senator has some harsh words for anti-tax advocate Grover Norquist.
A look at the day's political happenings, including presidential endorsements by a former veep nominee and a "Simpsons" character, plus a bookmaker pays out on the White House race before Election Day.
A look at the day's political happenings, including Mitt Romney apologizing to nearly half of America, Justice Scalia weighing in on abortion and gay rights, and the horrendous thing Rick Santorum wants to do to Big Bird.
A look at the day's political happenings, including why Mitt Romney says his heart aches, the GOP is back to supporting Todd Akin and his ridiculous "legitimate rape" comments, and the latest Fox News failure.
Apparently being smart and having conservative values do not go hand in hand. At least, that's what former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum said during a weekend speech at the Values Voter Summit in which he also criticized the media and libertarians.

Rick Santorum ran a little wild Tuesday night in Tampa, saying he held the hand of dirty farmers as well as the American dream, and referring to President Obama in dictatorial terms.
Behold as Mitt Romney is nominated, Rick Santorum talks about holding hands and Chris Christie eats a sandwich. Thanks, YouTube.
Rick Santorum had plenty of negative things to say about President Barack Obama during his speech Tuesday night at the Republican National Convention. In fact, it seems he had more bad things to say about Obama than good things to say about Mitt Romney, his party's presidential nominee.
So, dear friends, we gather again to celebrate Aug. 26, the anniversary of the passage of women's suffrage. We honor our foremothers in our special way by handing out the Equal Rites Awards for those who have done the most to slow down progress.
Many and more have condemned Penn State and Joe Paterno over their handling of allegations involving former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, but not "family values guy" Rick Santorum.

A look at the day's political happenings, including Mitt Romney's latest campaign stop, Rick Santorum on whether he wants to serve in a Romney administration and a lawmaker performing in the "The Vagina Monologues."
Who are the dastardly enemies of free enterprise who decided to make an issue of Mitt Romney's tenure at the private-equity firm Bain Capital? Er, those would be his fellow Republicans.
By Clay Bennett —
A novel aspect of the Republican campaign for the party's presidential nomination has been the importance placed by some candidates, their admirers and some voters on the Catholic religion and certain claims to formal academic certification or endorsement.

Who will speak for the rights of the unborn now that Rick Santorum is gone from the race? Let me give it a whirl from the perspective of one whose own unwed mother had several abortions before yours truly was permitted to emerge.

In proving himself more tenacious than anyone predicted, Santorum dramatized one of Romney's major problems, created another, and forced the now inevitable Republican nominee into a strategic dilemma.
Pat Bagley, Salt Lake Tribune —
AP/Gene J. Puskar
After a long primary season involving sudden upswings and fizzles, plus a couple of comebacks, there is little room left for doubt that Mitt Romney is going to be the 2012 Republican presidential nominee now that his biggest competition, in the form of the sweater vest containing Rick Santorum, has dropped out of the contest.
If Mitt Romney had walked by a room called The Forum at the University of Southern California last Wednesday, he would quit his presidential race right now.
AP/Charles Dharapak
The Republicans are a sick joke, and their narrow ideological stupidity has left rational voters no choice in the coming presidential election but Barack Obama.
AP/Nam Y. Huh
Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin all went for Mitt on Tuesday night, making Rick Santorum look even more like a party crasher.
The problem for Mitt Romney, assuming he eventually wins the GOP nomination, is that a general election campaign isn't really like an Etch A Sketch. Alas, traces from the primaries linger.
Flickr / Gage Skidmore (CC-BY-SA)
He doesn't lack enthusiastic supporters, nor is his campaign short on cash, and he's galvanized scores of younger voters. So why isn't Ron Paul able to clinch the Republican presidential nomination—or even come within spitting distance—this time around?

This week on Truthdig Radio in association with KPFK: Trayvon Martin and the Million Hoodie March; Rick Santorum's Christian nation; Dave Zirin is "shock-raged" over the New Orleans Saints, and we get an update on the Super PACs now leasing our democracy. Plus: Mr. Fish and John Lennon.

Right-wingers and other fools believe that the "mainstream" media are devoted to electing lefties to public office so we can turn the United States into Sweden. In fact all we want is the campaign to go on forever.
The Republican presidential primaries this year have turned into a religious census. There is little precedent in modern politics for the extent to which a state's choice for a nominee has coincided so closely with how many of its ballots were cast by white evangelical voters.
AP / Sue Ogrocki
It's not exactly a bold or risky move at this point—more like he knows which way the wind blows—but former Florida governor and current Bush clan member Jeb Bush has pledged his support to Mitt Romney's campaign for the presidency.

A group of right-wing extremists would have the American public believe it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of a market society.
AP / Nam Y. Huh
The fact that Newt Gingrich, who has done little to impress in this Republican primary, can afford to stay in the race tells you why Mitt Romney's huge win in Illinois on Tuesday night actually means very little.

Thus far, the 2012 presidential campaign has been unfocused, dispiriting and largely irrelevant. By the time Election Day comes, a weary nation will be at the point of pulling the covers over its head and screaming, "Somebody, please, make it stop."
Bob Englehart, Cagle Cartoons, The Hartford Courant —
The "values" voters are going to be disappointed, perhaps enraged, if President Obama is re-elected or if he is replaced by Mitt Romney. Their next move then will be to try to change the electoral system.

Midweek Madness - The Denis Leamy head tap
Denis Leamy, despite seeming pretty serious and all about the hard work on the field, must surely been one of those players who behind the scenes, is actually somewhat of a character and has quite a sense of humour. I dont know much about him personally, so those who know more will be able to confirm whether thats true or not.
One thing that can be confirmed though is the absurdity of whats shown in this short funny clip from last weekends test match between Australia & Ireland.
Leamy took it upon himself to find a whole new way of distracting the opposition scrumhalf, which, on this occasion, meant tapping Luke Burgess on the head when he was about to pass the ball out from the bottom of the ruck.
We saw Leamy trying something new with his bunny hopping madness at the back of the scrum in the past, but this is new tactic, a funny tactic, and one that I bet kids around the world will be haunting referees with after seeing this clip.

Eoghan June 19, 2008 4:03 am

Chazza June 19, 2008 5:20 am
Luke Burgess is the man, he played his first super 14 season this year at the age of 19 and absolutely showed Josh Holmes (the resident scrum half) what to do. Did any one else notice Denis Leamy trying to grab his hair in the second round of head taping.CLASSIC
jimza June 19, 2008 6:05 am
hahah, is it legal?
jay June 19, 2008 6:50 am
Funny as hell ^^ and yet if I were the ref. I'd go and see the guy to say that this is obviously unecessary...Had it been Pelous what would have been the reaction ;P ? A kick to the face ?(just joking as I am a froggie but the latin way of reacting to those little extras is not always the best)
no 9 June 19, 2008 10:15 am
lol thats one way 2 put off the scrum half
bD June 19, 2008 10:21 am
the ref was thinking of blowing him for it you can see him even turn around to the touch judge looking for help!
Nick June 19, 2008 11:14 am
Beautiful! Petting zoo in the ruck!
Anonymous June 19, 2008 4:00 pm
Leamy is a lunatic, when I was 12 I went to a schools game in Musgrave Park and he bust a guys nose open straight in front of the ref with one dig, he was also the goal kicker.

Dennis Leamy is a very talented player who has learned to controll a firey temper that risked his career at one stage. Playing for the Irish U-20's in the world cup in around 2001, Leamy was making his debut for his country. The big name player in the tournament was a your French whiz-kid by the name of Michelak. Ireland were playing France in their first match and Leamy wanting to make a name for himself and impress punched Michelak in the 1st minute breaking Michelaks nose and earning himself a red card.Leamy did not represent an Irish representitive side again until him Munster form demanded that he be brought into the Irish senior set up.Maybe he has just matured more since then, but his crazy antics are certainly a way for him to express his excentricities on the pitch. And also he is mental on a night out...a serious professional but and great fun guy.

Thats not leamy, you can clearly see jog roung the back of the ruck with the black scrum cap.

Roland has been winning awards cooking in Florida since 2001 and became the executive chef of M Waterfront Grille, 4300 Gulf Shore Blvd. N., Naples, 263-4421, when it opened in 2008.

- Joint imaging in childhood and adolescence 2013SpringerSince the advent of cross-sectional imaging methods, few works have been devoted to pediatric musculoskeletal imaging, and information is especially limited on the skeletally immature joint. Furthermore, reduced emphasis on pediatric training means that general radiologists are increasingly unfamiliar with normal and abnormal imaging findings in children and adolescents. Knowledge of the imaging appearances of the immature joint is, however, crucial for correct image interpretation. This book covers key selected topics in the imaging evaluation of the skeletally immature joint. The opening chapters consider the current role, advantages, and limitations of each modality in pediatric assessment and present the imaging appearances of anatomic and developmental peculiarities of the growing skeleton. Findings in a wide range of important conditions are then described in a series of richly illustrated chapters that document appearances on diverse imaging studies, from conventional radiography through to modern high-tech modalities. By presenting the essential information on imaging of the immature joint, the authors hope to provide radiologists (musculoskeletal specialists and generalists alike) with a new tool that will assist greatly in overcoming the daily challenges posed by interpretation of pediatric examinations in the twenty-first century. The book will also be of interest to all other specialists involved in the diagnosis and treatment of children and adolescents with articular complaints.

- "Preface Joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event data have become a valuable tool in the analysis of follow-up data. These models are applicable mainly in two settings: First, when focus is in the survival outcome and we wish to account for the effect of an endogenous time-dependent covariate measured with error, and second, when focus is in the longitudinal outcome and we wish to correct for nonrandom dropout. Due to their capability to provide valid inferences in settings where simpler statistical tools fail to do so, and their wide range of applications, the last 25 years have seen many advances in the joint modeling field. Even though interest and developments in joint models have been widespread, information about them has been equally scattered in articles, presenting recent advances in the field, and in book chapters in a few texts dedicated either to longitudinal or survival data analysis. However, no single monograph or text dedicated to this type of models seems to be available. The purpose in writing this book, therefore, is to provide an overview of the theory and application of joint models for longitudinal and survival data. In the literature two main frameworks have been proposed, namely the random effects joint model that uses latent variables to capture the associations between the two outcomes (Tsiatis and Davidian, 2004), and the marginal structural joint models based on G estimators (Robins et al., 1999, 2000). In this book we focus in the former. Both subfields of joint modeling, i.e., handling of endogenous time-varying covariates and nonrandom dropout, are equally covered and presented in real datasets"-- Provided by publisher.

- Joint surgery in the adult patient with hemophilia 2015SpringerThis book provides clear instruction on the surgical treatment of joint problems in adult hemophilia patients. The procedures applicable to specific joints, including the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and ankle, are carefully reviewed with the aid of high-quality illustrations. The surgical treatment of articular hemophilic pseudotumors and bone cysts is also considered. In addition, clinically relevant information is provided on a range of topics, such as the treatment of hemophilic hemarthroses, the imaging of hemophilic joints, hematological perioperative management, anesthesia, rehabilitation, and pharmacoeconomics. Finally, the controversial issues of postoperative thromboembolic prophylaxis and the role of COX-2 inhibitors in hemophiliacs are reviewed. The guidance provided draws on both the authors? extensive personal experience and an in-depth review of the pertinent literature. The book offers an excellent, up-to-date account of knowledge on musculoskeletal problems and approaches to joint surgery in adults with hemophilia. It will be of value to orthopedic surgeons, rehabilitation physicians, hematologists, radiologists, and pharmacy researchers.

- Print Material"When a waiting world learned on April 12, 1955, that Jonas Salk had successfully created a vaccine to prevent poliomyelitis, he became a hero overnight. Born in a New York tenement, humble in manner, Salk had all the makings of a twentieth-century icon-a knight in a white coat. In the wake of his achievement, he received a staggering number of awards and honors; for years his name ranked with Gandhi and Churchill on lists of the most revered people. And yet the one group whose adulation he craved--the scientific community--remained ominously silent. "The worst tragedy that could have befallen me was my success," Salk later said. "I knew right away that I was through-cast out." In the first complete biography of Jonas Salk, Charlotte DeCroes Jacobs unravels Salk's story to reveal an unconventional scientist and a misunderstood and vulnerable man. Despite his incredible success in developing the polio vaccine, Salk was ostracized by his fellow scientists, who accused him of failing to give proper credit to other researchers and scorned his taste for media attention. Even before success catapulted him into the limelight, Salk was an inscrutable man disliked by many of his peers. Driven by an intense desire to aid mankind, he was initially oblivious and eventually resigned to the personal cost--as well as the costs suffered by his family and friends. And yet Salk remained, in the eyes of the public, an adored hero. Based on hundreds of personal interviews and unprecedented access to Salk's sealed archives, Jacobs' biography offers the most complete picture of this complicated figure. Salk's story has never been fully told; until now, his role in preventing polio has overshadowed his part in co-developing the first influenza vaccine, his effort to meld the sciences and humanities in the magnificent Salk Institute, and his pioneering work on AIDS. A vivid and intimate portrait, this will become the standard work on the remarkable life of Jonas Salk"-- Provided by publisher. "He first full biography of Jonas Salk offers a complete picture of the enigmatic figure, from his early years working on an influenza vaccine--for which he never fully got credit--to his seminal creation of the Polio vaccine, up through his later work to find a cure for AIDS"-- Provided by publisher.

- How to Read a Study Record
The investigators believe that T cells, cells that are a part of the immune system, are what are causing the neurological problems while also attacking tumor cells. This protocol studies the clinical status of patients with paraneoplastic neurological disorder (PND) as well as their blood to understand the relationship between their neurological disease, their cancer, and their immune system.
Paraneoplastic Syndromes

|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|December 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Patients with paraneoplastic neurological disorders (PNDs) provide a unique model for studying tumor immunity and neuronal autoimmunity. We hypothesize that T lymphocyte autoimmune dysfunction is involved in the pathogenesis of the paraneoplastic neurological syndromes, and that killer T cells are involved in the targeting and successful killing of tumor cells in these cancer patients. Furthermore, we postulate that this activity may provide a model for autoimmune brain disease. We will assess the immune responses in PND patients, correlate these with the clinical data (time course of disease, symptoms and signs, disability), and collect and archive clinical data, serum and cells from PND patients for current and future studies into the basic immune system phenomenon present in PND patients.

A People's History of the Great Recession
A People's History of the Great Recession
Every book about the economic crisis of the late 2000s focuses on the institutions that caused the recession and the brilliant geniuses who were at the top when it all went down. This book is about the people on the bottom who got flattened through no fault of their own. Their stories show what happens when the system doesn't work. Now our political leaders are in the middle of a big debate about how much the nation should spend on social programs that help people. This book asks the question a different way: How much indignity should regular folks have to suffer?
For the past two years, Huffington Post reporter Arthur Delaney has written about the economic crisis, interviewing and emailing with hundreds and hundreds of people who didn't understand where they went wrong. This book is about them.

So, it's outstandingly quirky and from a uniquely talented development studio. So I thought it might interest some of you.
Frankly, I don't know if Diabolical Pitch will actually be good or not so good (as Kinect games tend to be), but we'll have the ability the judge for ourselves starting April 4. That's when Diabolical Pitch comes to Xbox Live Arcade, tiger-headed mascot demons and all.

A modern dictionary of Catholic terms, both common and obscure. Find accurate definitions of words and phrases.
The first systematic rule of life for a religious community, drawn up by St. Pachomius (290-346), the Egyptian founder of cenobitic Christian monasticism. It provided for a large number of monks under one head. There were three levels of superiors: the abbot over all the monasteries, a subordinate superior (praepositus) over individual communities, and a leader (hebdomadarius) who was appointed on a weekly basis to call the monks to prayer, lead the Divine Office, and relay directives from the superior. When Pachomius died, there were nine monasteries of men and two of women under his rule. He was head of seven thousand religious, thirteen hundred of whom were at Tabennesi on the bank of the Nile, and groups of two to three hundred were in smaller foundations.

Beta amyloid
Alzheimer's Culprit is Beta-Amyloid Plaque
1. Beta amyloid is a protein that is made by cells during normal metabolism. But in AD, there is an abnormal cleavage of this protein in the cell membrane. 2.Beta amyloid can bind to dendrites on nerves and interfere with their normal function. 3.Smaller beta amyloid proteins accumulate to form large plaques between nerve cells.
Amyloid beta (Aβ or Abeta) denotes peptides of 36–43 amino acids that are crucially involved in Alzheimer's disease as the main component of the amyloid plaques found in the brains of Alzheimer patients. The peptides result from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which is cleaved by beta secretase and gamma secretase to yield Aβ. Aβ molecules can aggregate to form flexible soluble oligomers which may exist in several forms. It is now believed that certain misfolded oligomers (known as "seeds") can induce other Aβ molecules to also take the misfolded oligomeric form, leading to a chain reaction akin to a prion infection. The seeds or the resulting amyloid plaques are toxic to nerve cells. The other protein implicated in Alzheimer's disease, tau protein, also forms such prion-like misfolded oligomers, and there is some evidence that misfolded Aβ can induce tau to misfold.
A recent study suggested that APP and its amyloid potential is of ancient origins, dating as far back as early deuterostomes.
