In last year's October, the World Health Organization labeled air pollution a leading cause of cancer. As it turns out, exposure to various airborne pollutants can also cause several other health problems.
Thus, a team of researchers now say that, according to their investigations, being exposed to elevated levels of air pollution for even a short period of time can translate into irregular heartbeat, maybe even lung blood clots.
While researching the impact of air pollution on public health, the specialists looked at information concerning air pollution levels, hospital admissions, and meteorological conditions in England and Wales.
For the period of time between 2003 and 2009, as many as 400,000 heart attacks, 2 million emergency admissions for cardiovascular problems, and 600,000 deaths resulting from heart attack or stroke were linked to average air concentrations of pollutants.
As detailed by EurekAlert, the average air pollution concentrations linked to these instances of heart attacks, cardiovascular problems, and stroke- or heart attack-related deaths were documented during fairly short periods of just 5 days.
What's interesting is that, according to the specialists behind this research project, the link between short-term exposure to various air pollutants and an increased stroke or heart attack risk is not exactly strong or all that clear.
The link between exposure to fine particulate matter and an increased risk for irregular heartbeat and lung blood clots, on the other hand, appears to be surprisingly strong, information made available to the public says.
What's more, even short-term exposure to a certain air pollutant, i.e. nitrogen dioxide, appears to make one more likely to experience cardiovascular problems – heart failure included – and suffer a type of heart attack known as non-ST elevation.
In light of these findings, it has been concluded that, at least for the time being, there is no evidence that being exposed to air pollution for short periods of time can make one more vulnerable to a heart attack or a stroke.
However, it appears that irregular heartbeat and lung blood clots are likely to occur even in people who only breathe in fine particulate matter for a short while, the specialists who carried out this research project argue.
Fine particulate matter is a major component of outdoor air pollution, and previous studies have shown it to be a noteworthy threat to public health. Thus, fine particulate matter is now considered to be carcinogenic to humans, which means it is in the same category as tobacco smoke, UV radiation, and radioactive chemicals.

How do I export a list of installed Debian packages on a system, and then install those same packages on a new system?

Also see this question for additional options and info: http://serverfault.com/questions/737/ubuntu-how-to-setup-a-new-machine-like-an-existing-one
I have the above running in a daily cronjob that checks the dpgklist into SVN as part of our server inventory. This will allow you to keep a reasonable accurate inventory of installed packages across your servers and its easy to do a quick side-by-side diff to see if a server is missing a particular package.
You can also use aptitude for the same. This preserves information about "automatically installed" packages that other methods do not.
Run following on the reference machine
copy package_list to the other machine and run
That's a good idea, and you might also set up one server with apt-proxy if you make a habit of this.

Spotting the fruit of the fall season in my local supermarket conjures visions of cozy winter dinners complemented by inspired autumnal table settings (which I will never set).

Toll Hikes To Go Into Effect
As of 3 a.m. Sunday, it costs drivers more to cross bridges and tunnels owned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
Cash tolls on the George Washington Bridge, Holland Tunnel, Lincoln Tunnel, Goethals Bridge, Bayonne Bridge and Outerbridge Crossing were scheduled to rise from $8 to $12. For trucks it'll be $13 per axle. If you have EZ Pass, the increase is $1.50.
PATH train fares also increased Sunday to $2.
On Thursday, AAA asked the U.S. Department of Transportation to block the toll increases.
The authority had originally proposed even steeper toll increases, but was forced to scale back after the governors of New York and New Jersey threatened to veto them.
The Port Authority's coffers have been hit hard by security-related projects following the 9/11 attacks, a drop in revenue caused by the global economic slump, and the $11 billion World Trade Center complex.

Prisoner rape survivors are more than just the faces of a human rights crisis; they are an essential part of the solution to the sexual violence that plagues prisons and jails. JDI works to ensure that men and women who were sexually assaulted while in detention play vital roles in the effort to end prisoner rape.
The most powerful, informed, and compelling information about sexual violence in detention comes from people who have survived this devastating form of abuse. JDI supports survivors to share their stories and to become leaders in the human rights community by joining the Survivor Speakers List.
Survivor advocates help shatter stereotypes about inmates and about rape in detention. Through correspondence, survivors who are still incarcerated prepare written accounts that are posted on JDI's website and are included in public hearing testimonies.
JDI continues its relationship with survivor advocates after their release by connecting them with journalists, arranging speaking engagements, and organizing other advocacy opportunities. Survivor advocates also provide input on key policy decisions and play leadership roles within the organization, including serving on its Board of Directors, Survivor Council, and Board of Advisors.
JDI worked with the National Prison Rape Elimination Commission to include survivors' expertise in the development of the Standards for the Prevention, Detection, Response, and Monitoring of Sexual Abuse in detention. Survivors are also now at the forefront of the effort to ensure that the Attorney General ratifies the Commission's standards as binding federal regulations.
JDI is always looking for additional survivors to join the Speakers List and to become catalysts for change. If you are a survivor of sexual violence behind bars and are interested in sharing your story, please contact Leelyn Aquino at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you are a member of the media interested in speaking with a survivor advocate, please contact Jesse Lerner-Kinglake, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Natsuki Abe
Natsuki Abe, born on December 13th 1981, is another beautiful Japanese AV star. So far she did 16 videos in the few years she is business now. Haven't seen anyone of them but I was impressed by her photos at scanlover.com.
Selected links:
very nice....
in the words of this decade's intellectual giant Paris Hilton..."that's hot" :)
very nice, indeed..
also great lighting to emphasize the perfect curves!
Very cute! george w is strong in this one.
She has this super natural beauty. I could wife her! :)
Look at this
Aarrghh.. clicking on scanlover link always produce "Under Construction" page on my computer.. :(
I found more pics, though..
another scanlover babe, those babes in scanlover are all hot my favorite is still Sora Aoi, was she ever featured here before ? Robin ? Dr Lee?
wow, my socks have been knocked off...and then some.
pne of my all-time fav j-babes:-)
Super. Perfect body.
She is one of my all-time favorites, too. So gorgeous! What a face. Her videos are great. I am not fan of breast jobs, but hers was very effective.
This woman is stunning, but all the scanlover.com links show a blank page with the text "Under Construction". Why? I see that diginudeart sees the same thing, but daxnlover also gives a scanlover link and implies that it works for him. So what give?
I want to find more photos of Ms. Abe! She's extraordinary, and beautifully proportioned.
By the way knarf, Ms. Abe does not have implants. Those are real.
The reason why some of you guys are getting a blank page with the text "Under Construction" is because scanlover.com is blocked in your area. I currently live in China and I get the same thing. Try using a web proxy like anonymouse.org or proxify.com.
Hi theraiders2008, thanks for your suggestion about why I can't get to scanlover.com, but as I live in California (USA) I would have thought it very unlikely that my ISP was blocking scanlover.com. But it turns out you are correct! I can get there through proxify.com. I'm astonished. ISPs in the US aren't supposed to pull that censorship crap. Just goes to show that the net is not as open and free as Americans like to think it is! But then these days, a lot of Americans are delusional about a lot of things.
I wish I could agree with you Asian connoisseur about her breasts being real, but using the lessons of Dr. Lee---I don't think so. I have 15 of her videos and her breasts at times seem too perfectly round (like drawn with a compass), too firm, and exhibit a weird edge every once in a while. Look at the photo on this site---the second one in the fifth row where she has her arms above her head:
Please convince me that I am wrong. I would welcome it.
I'm tending to agree with you, knarf. If it's a job, it's a great job! :)
Good to see somebody's paying attention! :-)
Still, having said that, this photo isn't entirely conclusive: because her breasts aren't very big, it is possible for young, natural breasts of this size to look relatively round and firm.
However, natural breasts this size should flatten out and not stick up in the air when she lies on her back. If they still remain round, firm and perky when she lies on her back, then they're fake.
I've been going through her Scanlover pics, and found some pretty conclusive ones. knarf is right - she does have breast implants. Well done knarf!
Here is an example:
No natural breasts would stay this round, firm and perky when their owner is lying on her back.
Wow, she is beautiful, even with implants. A great post.
I feel like I'm learning a lot about implants lately. Dr. Lee's advice that we can only judge well by watching the naked breasts is really useful.
Thinking of all the possibilities that this method opens up!
knarf, I agree that the photo you referred to (2nd in the 5th row) shows her breasts remarkably round and symmetrical. But that pose, with her arms over her head, can do that in some young women. Check out the 1st photo in the 4th row. Note the concave curve in the upper half of the breasts when her arms are by her sides and the breast tissue is relaxed and not stretched. That tells me they're natural. There are other photos of her in that series taken on the beach where she is sitting and they look totally natural.
As to how they look when she is on her back, some young women in her size range have firm enough breast tissue that their breasts hardly flatten out at all. I can speak from personal experience on that point. ;-) It is an amazing, and stimulating, sight to see!
I checked out all her photos on scanlover.com and I'm still not persuaded that she has implants.
All that said, she is stunning woman and I'm flattered that she has chosen to share her beauty with the world.
There is absolutely no way natural breasts would stay that round, firm and perky when their owner is lying on their back - it's just impossible for human breast tissue to do this. It's not just the fact that they don't flatten out, but also that their form doesn't change from when she's standing up - this is a dead giveaway.
Dr. Lee, I respect your opinion. I can only say that if Ms. Abe has had implants, they are extremely well done and relatively small compared to what most women get when they elect to have that surgery. The fact that when she is standing up with her arms at her sides, the upper half of her breasts are decidely concave, is a rarity among implant patients.
Some young women do in fact have such firm breast tissue that when they are on their back their breasts hardly push out to the sides at all, and they look amazingly "perky". I should know; I used to be married to one. And I've seen a few others up close and personal. <G>
You'd better read this article - like many people, you judge implants by the standards of the obvioulsy fake, over the muscle types almost always used in the US. Most Japanese boob jobs are 'concave' on top because they are placed under the muscle - this retains the natural slope of a woman's breast. And once again, it is impossible for natural breast tissue to look like the picture I link to above in that pose. The only way this girl could possibly have natural breasts is if this particular pic has been Photoshopped to make her breasts look more perfect. Which is possible, but unlikely.
I would say she does have small implants that are indeed well done. I say this because of the symmetry of her breasts and the upward displacement in some of the pics. She clearly is not overly augmented.
She is young enough to have no visible signs of rippling that some older women with diminished breast architecture or thinning of the subcutaneous adipose tissue that comes with age. Older people tend to develop pockets of fatty deposits whereas younger individuals are more evenly distributed... until they get to a maximum capacity and it redistributes.
Everyone is naturally designed to store some adipose tissue all over the body. Hence the "skinny-fat" condition that many asian, as well as non overweight caucasian women display. Proper muscle-tone and healthy diet as well as youth alone can support an amazingly high BMI. The body is built to support the fatty deposits. The beautiful curves of a woman are almost entirely adipose tissue (when natural). Sadly, its a very brief period of time that everything is in harmony.
Even more rare is the balance of maturity, intelligence beauty and health all at the same time. The camera can only display so much. Thank goodness we don't have to listen to these glamour shot girls blabber on about the purse they want to buy with the money they make.
wow she is pretty. regardless of the implants.
*adds pics to screen saver*
The one thing i can't stand about this site is the constant focus on "Real or fake?" WHO FUCKING CARES?? The girls still look incredibly hot, don't they? You would still shove your grandmother aside for an opportunity to squeeze those tits, wouldn't you? If you say no to the last point, I have to question your hetersexuality and, hence, your reason for viewing this site in the first place.
If you don't care, fine, but enquring minds want to know. ;-)
shut up..i want to know...it is a scientific query :)
Hey Bob!
I do have curiosity to discuss it, because by being more knowledgeable I can use this to start good convos with some babes at the clubs. Think about the possibilities... ;)
Anyway, whether they are fake or not, I usually like them, unless they are really too big and impossible to believe in.
dazn..you can really use that line? "are those real? " ha ha...:)
too big is like Minka's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Minka_Model.jpg ..way too big probably for doc too:)
oops..doc can you edit my link?..thanks
Too big? For day to day life perhaps, but I wouldn't say no. ;-)
you are sick doc:)..what happened in your child hood to make you love such humongous mammary glands....sometime too big is too big..minka probably cant sleep on her stomach...ha ha
Actually, I'm sure she can't sleep on her stomach. ;-)
Have I commented on her yet? If not, DAMN, she is really a knockout. =)
are they real or is it memorex.....
I think the Twins have had a little help from a Doc...
she needs a brazilian!
she needs a vietnamese :))

The Coming Insurrection
Thirty years of "crisis," mass unemployment, and flagging growth, and they still want us to believe in the economy. . . . We have to see that the economy is itself the crisis. It's not that there's not enough work, it's that there is too much of it.
—from The Coming Insurrection
The Coming Insurrection is an eloquent call to arms arising from the recent waves of social contestation in France and Europe. Written by the anonymous Invisible Committee in the vein of Guy Debord—and with comparable elegance—it has been proclaimed a manual for terrorism by the French government (who recently arrested its alleged authors). One of its members more adequately described the group as "the name given to a collective voice bent on denouncing contemporary cynicism and reality." The Coming Insurrection is a strategic prescription for an emergent war-machine to "spread anarchy and live communism."
Written in the wake of the riots that erupted throughout the Paris suburbs in the fall of 2005 and presaging more recent riots and general strikes in France and Greece, The Coming Insurrection articulates a rejection of the official Left and its reformist agenda, aligning itself instead with the younger, wilder forms of resistance that have emerged in Europe around recent struggles against immigration control and the "war on terror."
Hot-wired to the movement of '77 in Italy, its preferred historical reference point, The Coming Insurrection formulates an ethics that takes as its starting point theft, sabotage, the refusal to work, and the elaboration of collective, self-organized forms-of-life. It is a philosophical statement that addresses the growing number of those—in France, in the United States, and elsewhere—who refuse the idea that theory, politics, and life are separate realms.

OAS Permanent Council Receives Reports on Electoral Observation Missions in Antigua and Barbuda and Costa Rica
July 9, 2014
The Permanent Council of the Organization of American States (OAS) today received the verbal reports on the Electoral Observation Missions (EOM) to the presidential and general elections that took place in Antigua and Barbuda on June 12, and in Costa Rica on February 2 and April 6.
Report on the EOM in Antigua and Barbuda:
The report on the general elections in Antigua and Barbuda was presented by the Chief of Mission designated by the Secretary General of the OAS, José Miguel Insulza, Rosina Wiltshire, who highlighted "the extraordinary commitment of women and men with the electoral process noticeable in the large number of citizens waiting to cast their vote in all polling centers, resulting in an extremely high turnout that reached 90.27%."
The Chief of the EOM reported that during the pre-electoral period, the Mission met with the main political actors, among them the Antigua and Barbuda Electoral Commission, the Governor General Louise Lake-Tack, then-Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer, and leader of the opposition Gaston Browne, representatives from all political parties, ambassadors, NGOs, labor unions, church representatives, police officials, members of the Chamber of Commerce, and other electoral missions.
Wiltshire said that in these meetings, the EOM heard concerns about the high level of spending on campaigns, the low level of representation of women as candidates, the imbalance of voters across constituencies, the absence of a process of continuous registration, the delivery of new voter identification cards, and the need to name a seventh member of the Electoral Commission, among others.
The Chief of Mission presented in her report a list of recommendations "with the purpose of supporting the continuous efforts of Antigua and Barbuda to strengthen their democracy and electoral system." Among them, she highlighted the need to publish voter lists outside each voting center; the counting of the votes at the polling stations under adequate supervision and the transmission of electoral results through computer networks; the design and publication of an updated website to better promote information about the electoral process; the restitution of the continuous registration process by the Antigua and Barbuda Electoral Commission; the promotion of reforms to address the low level of representation of women as candidates; and legislative actions to increase transparency in the financing of campaigns and political parties.
In her conclusion, the Chief of Mission thanked Argentina, Bolivia, Spain, Chile, France, Serbia, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and South Korea for their contributions to the EOM.
For her part, the Permanent Representative of Antigua and Barbuda to the OAS, Deborah-Mae Lovell thanked Secretary General Insulza for the deployment of the EOM, and the Chief of Mission for her comprehensive report, and she committed to transmitting its recommendations to her capital.
Secretary General Insulza thanked the Chief of Mission for her work and that of the EOM, and highlighted the points in the report that demonstrate the need to constantly improve elections, "a very important issue for the region." "We must be ready to cooperate as much as the countries need in order to resolve the new problems that arise and that the citizens identify as possible obstacles in the development of democracy," said the Secretary General, who congratulated the new Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda, Gaston Browne, and expressed his gratitude to the outgoing leader Baldwin Spencer for his constant support for the OAS.
Report on the EOM in Costa Rica:
In the same regular meeting, the Permanent Council received the verbal report of the EOM to the recent general elections in Costa Rica, held on February 2 in the first round, and April 6 in the second, in which Costa Ricans elected the President, Vice President and 57 Deputies to the Legislative Assembly of the country. The Chief of Mission, Josefina Vásquez Mota, noted in her report that in the realization of its tasks, the OAS team "privileged the implementation of methodologies to observe political financing, access to the media, and conditions of equality for the participation of men and women throughout the electoral process."
In her conclusions, the Chief of Mission highlighted "the high level of professionalism and technical expertise with which the electoral process was conducted, the opportune and diligent actions of the Supreme Tribunal of Elections dealing with situations that arose, and in particular the strengthening of means to guarantee the integrity of the electoral process. The Mission also congratulates the citizens of Costa Rica, who, despite unprecedented political conditions in the country, showed once again their civic and democratic traditions."
At the end of the report, and "seeking to contribute to the continuous strengthening of the electoral processes in Costa Rica," the Chief of Mission presented a series of recommendations, among them: evaluate the implementation of legislation of free bandwidth in the media for political parties during the electoral campaign; analyze the possibility of delivering public financing to parties ahead of time; consider integral strategies within the parties that contribute to the development and incentivizing of female leaders within their ranks; strengthen the mechanisms for increasing the electoral participation of voters abroad; continue promoting efforts to increase electoral participation; and that parties maintain their activities of articulating and integrating the interests and preferences of the citizenry between elections.
Chief of Mission Vásquez Mota thanked, on behalf of the EOM, Bolivia, Chile, the United States, France, Israel and Luxembourg for their contributions to the Mission.
For his part, the Permanent Representative of Costa Rica to the OAS, Edgar Ugalde, thanked the Mission for its work and the presentation of the report, which "will make its way into the hands of people who will pay attention to its recommendations." "There is a great will to take on the recommendations and improve the system," said Ambassador Ugalde upon concluding his address.

The setDomainCookies attribute of the cfapplication tag is used to associate a specific domain with a cookie so that a user's session is stored at the domain level (for example, .site1.com). In ColdFusion MX 6.1, when using the cfapplication tag with the setDomainCookies attribute set to yes, the wrong domain may be set on multihomed servers. The first time a domain cookie is set, the domain is determined and is set appropriately. Subsequent requests, even if they are from a virtual web site in a different domain, are set to the same domain as the initial request.
For example, server1 hosts two web sites, site1.com and site2.com. A customer requests http://www.site1.com/index.cfm, which sets a domain cookie for site1.com. The customer then requests http://www.site2.com/index.cfm, which should set a separate domain cookie for site2.com. Instead, site1.com is used again.
When specifying the setdomaincookies attribute, the domain is determined by first obtaining the server name from the web server (CGI.SERVER_NAME in CFML). If the server name obtained is "localhost" or "127.0.0.1", there is no domain. Otherwise, the domain name is the full string after the first dot in CGI.SERVER_NAME. This process does not occur correctly in ColdFusion MX 6.1 on multihomed servers and is logged as issue 53797. This TechNote provides a hot fix for the issue.

25th Boston Jewish Film Festival - The Jewish Cardinal
Presented by The Boston Jewish Film Festival at Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

On Nov. 16, the Museum of Fine Arts will close at 4:45 p.m. and everyone must exit the Museum at that time. It will re-open at 5:30 p.m. for this screening. Please use State Street Corporation Entrance.

L'Oreal EverCurl Hydracharge Conditioner Review
L'Oreal EverCurl Hydracharge Conditioner ($6.99) is a sulfate-free, paraben-free, vegan free conditioner according to L'Oreal. Since I recently tried out and adored L'Oreal Evercurl Hydracharge Cleansing Conditioner I thought I'd try the Hydracharge Shampoo and Conditioner.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to actually locate the shampoo!
Go figure!
But I have been using the conditioner the last several days and here are some thoughts.
L'Oreal EverCurl Hydracharge Conditioner is a fairly inexpensive conditioner that can be purchased at any drugstore. The fact that it's sulfate-free and affordable would make it a rarity but nowadays budget friendly brands like L'Oreal are starting to introduce more and more hair products that are sulfate-free.
The thing I like about this conditioner is the fact it provides moisture but like the Evercurl Hydracharge Cleansing Conditioner it does not weight my hair down or create a ton of excess build up. It has a creamy almost coconut scent that has a bit of vanilla? The scent is similar to the Cleansing Conditioner with minor differences or at least my nose things so.
It's meant for curly hair with frizz. I have longer, thicker, drier, wavy hair with plenty of curl to it so this is an ideal pick for me. It doesn't really make my frizz more manageable it does however, create more managed de-tangled locks with plenty of shine and a good deal of moisture as well so my hair feels softer.
I can't say I like it as much as the Cleansing Conditioner which I found way nicer a formula that did great things for my hair. However, it is a fairly decent formula that provides moisture without unnecessary build up and a lightweight formula that rinses clean away!
Anyone try it?
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
This product was purchased
by the Muse for review purposes.
Read my full disclosure statement here.
7/19/13 22:49 Gloria:
I actually did not like this conditioner. I have curly hair, and I felt that both shampoo and conditioner made my hair drier. It didn't moisturizer my hair at all. I haven't tried the cleansing conditioner though. I might give it a try.
7/23/13 16:40 Elena:
Hello, Muse. I've been lurking on your blog for some time now. I love visiting every day.
If you're interested in weightless moisture I will strongly recommend GVP's version of Matrix Biolage Conditioning Balm.
I'm a sulphate free, 'cone free, fine haired, curly girl so weightless moisture is a must for me and I feel like I've tried 100 kinds of conditioners. This conditioner is extremely thick and moisturizing but I never have any problems with it weighing down my hair. In fact, it's so thick that I can usually make 3 bottles from 1! I keep two empty bottles on hand and transfer a 3rd into each bottle and fill with water and shake up. It's still incredibly rich after! This comes out to about $2.20 a bottle! Can't beat that!
8/16/13 17:09 Jennifer:
I have naturally curly (thick, frizzy, and unruly) hair. I've tried this cleansing conditioner. The only real change that I noticed is when I first switched from regular shampoo and conditioner to this. My hair was somewhat softer and not as dried out, but that's about it. It really hasn't helped my frizz problems or hydrated my hair. I found it at Walmart and Walgreens and the price of it keeps going up. I was hoping that it would be the miracle product but I'll just have to keep trying things.
8/16/13 17:10 Jennifer:
Forgot to mention that I could never find a matching shampoo either. I know they make different versions but I think this one is supposed to just be a cleansing conditioner with no shampooing.
1/5/14 13:47 marie:
I started to use the loreal hydracharge cleansing conditioner, but for some reason I don't like the smell I was wondering can it go bad? Also my hair feels drier. When I bought the bottle it was the last one and it was marked clearance. My daughter introduced me to these products and I loved it but this bottle just might be a bad one. What do anyone think?

Planned Parenthood groundbreaking met with opposition
SPRINGFIELD, Ore. - The Glenwood area's first groundbreaking on a new building in 20 years was met by protesters Wednesday.
In just about a year from now, Planned Parenthood of Southwestern Oregon will open a new Regional Health and Education Center.
And while it's new development, dozens of protesters armed with signs wanted to make their voices heard about their opposition to the center and the services it will provide, like birth control and medical abortions that require a pill. The facility also will have a space for surgical abortions, although the service won't be immediately available.
"They put the appearance that they represent a good thing," said protester Eric Walter. "The truth is, this is really the death to our, to our community."
The protesters stood just outside the gated area where the groundbreaking took place.
"We are hoping that by standing out here, others will be thinking about this and preferably we'll see facilities like this close down," said Walter.
Inside the lot, state and city leaders including Senator Ron Wyden, Congressman Peter Defazio and Eugene Mayor Kitty Piercy joined in the groundbreaking of the new site.
The new center will eventually replace two smaller centers in Springfield and Eugene.
"It'll be a two-story center with the health center on the ground floor and our administrative offices on the second floor," said Cynthia Pappas, CEO of PPSO.
It will also provide an expanded education center allowing Planned Parenthood to do more trainings around healthy sexuality according to Pappas.
Currently Planned Parenthood serves 21,000 clients in Lane County, now they'll be able to serve close to 31,000.
Pappas said it will also create around 100 new construction jobs and a handful of new Planned Parenthood jobs as well.
"We're embracing the future. We know that our clients depend on us and it makes it even more special," said Pappas.

Super Rugby season is about to resume after the three-week international break and it seems the Brumbies are right back where they started.
Having to prove their worth as Australian conference leaders.
Jake White's surprise packets are within striking distance of their first finals campaign since 2004 but, with three games left, the coach is ever wary of teams who will be out to crash the Brumbies' party.
White named a 22-man squad to fly to Perth late on Thursday ahead of their clash with Western Force at nib Stadium on Saturday.
There have been several changes to the line-up that played on the other side of the break against the Rebels, with Henry Speight recalled to the starting 15 on the wing to replace Joe Tomane, who hurt his ankle in training with the Wallabies.
Newly-capped Australian representative Dan Palmer resumes his place in the front row, while Sam Carter has been brought in at lock over Leon Power.
The Brumbies, who've notched just the one win in Perth, face a difficult prospect against the Force, who will be full of emotion in farewelling lock Nathan Sharpe in his last home game for the WA franchise.
White agreed the Force, despite their lowly standing at the bottom of the Australian conference with just three wins, will be out to thwart the Brumbies' push towards the finals.
"And quite rightly so," he said.
"But that's no different to the Waratahs the next weekend and no different to the Blues who come to Canberra the third weekend.
"It's the same old, same old (for us) - we've just got to focus, play as well as we can.
"We've got a lot to play for, so there's going to be a lot of emotion for us as well."
Worst case scenario, the Brumbies, who now boast five Wallabies, need to win two games to ensure the Queensland Reds don't sneak past them for first place on the Australian conference.
Despite fears the international break could disturb the Brumbies' momentum, second-rower Peter Kimlin said it was like it never happened.
"The amount of excitement coming into this week has been pretty special and I think the first session we had on Monday was probably the sharpest of the year," said the lock, who added the Brumbies were out to secure a hat-trick of wins.
"We're not going into any games with any preconceived ideas about bonus points or four tries or whatever it is - it's just about winning games."
White said Tomane could be a possible starter next week when the Brumbies head to Sydney to take on the NSW Waratahs, as could No.8 Fotu Auelua, who misses the Force match on account of an injured hamstring.
Brumbies: Robbie Coleman, Henry Speight, Andrew Smith, Pat McCabe, Jesse Mogg, Zack Holmes, Nic White, Ben Mowen (capt), Michael Hooper, Peter Kimlin, Sam Carter, Scott Fardy, Dan Palmer, Stephen Moore, Ben Alexander. Res: Anthony Hegarty, Ruaidhri Murphy, Leon Power, Ita Vaea, Ian Prior, Tevita Kuridrani, Cam Crawford.

The Adventures of Theodore Rooseveltby Theodore Roosevelt
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
"My God, what a superior man TR was" Senator John McCain
What do you get when you combine an obsessive reader and writer, a "wild and wooly" adventurer, an astute naturalist, and an ironclad political will? Teddy Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States: a naturalist, a biographer, a hunter and a Nobel Prize winner-among other things. Adventure Classics series editor Anthony Brandt focuses on Roosevelt's robust and adventurous spirit and treats the reader to an engaging assortment of Roosevelt's far-flung adventures across the American West, Africa, and South America.
Theodore Roosevelt was part Francis Parkman, part Lowell Thomas, and one hundred percent spirit of America and master of the printed page. The Adventures of Theodore Roosevelt collects self-contained excerpts from some of his greatest works, including such revealing memoirs as The Rough Riders, the Autobiography, and Through the Brazilian Wilderness, in an effort to capture the many aspects of a great American who was indeed larger than life and his own best "Boswell."
In addition to an introduction that outlines the adventurous aspects of Roosevelt's life, each selection includes a brief introduction by Anthony Brandt that explains the necessary context for each reading. Woven together in this exciting narrative the selections form a chronological account of Roosevelt's lifetime of adventures.
Spanning Roosevelt's entire life, the excerpts in this book include Roosevelt's writings from:
Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail
The Wilderness Hunter
Hunting Trips of a Ranchman
Book-Lovers' Holidays in the Open
The Rough Riders
African Game Trails
Through the Brazilian Wilderness
The Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt
Selections from articles in Forest and Stream magazine and Scribners
Selected letters
"I like books of exploration and adventure" Theodore Roosevelt
The wide-ranging adventures of outdoorsman, naturalist, and U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt are collected for the first time in this boisterous anthology.
About the Author
Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th President of the United States (the first of the twentieth century), recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, historian, naturalist, best-selling author, and perhaps the most multifaceted and dynamic figure to ever grace the residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Roosevelt was born in New York City in 1858 into a wealthy family, but he struggled--against ill health--and in his triumph became an advocate of the strenuous life. In 1884 his first wife, Alice Lee Roosevelt, and his mother died on the same day. Roosevelt spent much of the next two years on his ranch in the Badlands of Dakota Territory. There he mastered his sorrow as he lived in the saddle, driving cattle, hunting big game--he even captured an outlaw. During the Spanish-American War, he was lieutenant colonel of the Rough Rider Regiment, which he led on a charge at the battle of San Juan. He was one of the most conspicuous heroes of the war.
An advocate of robust living and a lifelong naturalist, Roosevelt's most effective achievements as a President were in conservation. He added enormously to the national forests in the West, reserved lands for public use, and fostered great irrigation projects. He crusaded endlessly on matters big and small, exciting audiences with his high-pitched voice, jutting jaw, and pounding fist. "The life of strenuous endeavor" was a must for those around him, as he romped with his five younger children and led ambassadors on hikes through Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C.
Leaving the Presidency in 1909, Roosevelt went on an African safari, then jumped back into politics. In 1912 he ran for President on a Progressive ticket. To reporters he once remarked that he felt as fit as a bull moose, the name of his new party. While campaigning in Milwaukee, he was shot in the chest by a fanatic. Roosevelt soon recovered, but his words at that time would have been applicable at the time of his death in 1919: "No man has had a happier life than I have led; a happier life in every way."
Series Editor Anthony Brandt is an expert in the literature of adventure and the book editor for National Geographic Adventure magazine. He lives in Sag Harbor, New York.

CVS, the parent company of Longs Drugs, will no longer sell tobacco products starting Wednesday.
This change comes earlier than expected. Back in February, the company announced all of its stores would stop sales on Oct. 1. The decision to no longer sell tobacco products will cost the company about $2 billion in revenue.
CVS has 7,700 retail locations and is the second largest drug store chain behind Walgreens.
The American Pharmacists Association called on drug stores to stop selling tobacco back in March 2010, which several small independent chains have already done.
CVS is the first large chain to stop tobacco sales. As Long Drugs continues to grow its image as being a health care provider, it says selling tobacco is "inconsistent with its purpose."
CVS has changed its name from CVS Caremark to CVS Health. The company says it will help people on their path to health.

I think the English site does not represent the current food trend in HK.... How can TGI's Friday be voted as one of the best restaurants in a couple of categories?
Yeah, like the way olden days when one was told that the place to go in Hong Kong was the San Francisco Steak House.
Although I will add that at the time, I was living in Hong Kong. When one lives in a place, it's a little different than what one eats when one is traveling in search of an authentic experience.
I did go to the San Francisco Steak House on occasion, and was glad to get a taste of 'home.' And a break from Chinese food.
Much like, I suppose, Chinese folks living in Omaha. Doubt they eat only US certified beef, just because that's where they happen to be planted at the time.

The Main Street closure underneath I-35E is ongoing as crews perform utility work. This portion of Main Street is expected to reopen in mid-September.
In order to repair the bridge joints at the southbound mainlane bridge over Valley View Lane, northbound mainlane traffic at Valley View Lane has shifted to the outside and southbound mainlane traffic has shifted to the center of the bridge. Traffic will remain in this configuration for rehabilitation activities until the end of September. At that time, north- and southbound traffic will shift into final alignments.
Motorists will continue to experience miscellaneous north- and southbound frontage road closures daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. between Valwood Parkway and Crosby Road. As ramp construction and widening work continues on the north- and southbound mainlanes, the southbound Valwood Parkway exit ramp will be closed through October.
As crews work to set beams at the Belt Line Road overpass, motorists will continue to experience nightly full closures of the southbound frontage road between Belt Line and Crosby Roads. The southbound I-35E entrance ramp at Belt Line Road remains closed through 2017.
As crews continue to work on the new southbound mainlane bridge over Belt Line Road, miscellaneous lane closures and flagging operations will take place on College Street. Additionally, various lanes of east- and westbound Belt Line Road will be under nightly lane closures.
The flagging operation for truck access at Century Drive continues.
Southbound frontage road traffic will shift to the west between College Street and Belt Line Road this month.
Work on the new Dickerson Parkway bridge is underway. Crews continue to place drill shafts and column work will begin soon. Nightly mainlane closures continue.
The new southbound exit ramp to Frankford Road is expected to open later this month. The new ramp is a few hundred feet north of the current ramp.
Utility work north of Frankford Road continues. Construction of the new frontage road alignment also continues in this area. Traffic is expected to be placed on the new pavement this fall.
The southbound Valwood Parkway exit ramp closed in late August and is expected to reopen in October. In the meantime, to access Valwood Parkway, motorists will continue south to the Valley View Lane exit and use the U-turn to access the northbound frontage road.
Various lanes of north- and southbound I-35E between President George Bush Turnpike and FM 1171/Main Street will be closed nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday, August 31 through Saturday, December 5. At least one lane in each direction will remain open to traffic.
As work progresses on the new southbound mainlane bridge over Belt Line Road in Carrollton, the following closures will be in place nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 13 through Saturday, Oct. 31:
Detour: Traffic will travel west on Belt Line Road and turn left onto Hutton Drive. Drivers will continue south and turn left onto Crosby Road back to the southbound I-35E frontage road. Law enforcement will be on site to assist with traffic control during the closure.
As crews continue to work on the new southbound mainlane bridge, the southbound frontage road between College Street and Belt Line Road will shift to the west.
Crews continue to widen the existing bridges at Harry Hines Boulevard by installing drill shafts, columns and bridge decking. Ongoing miscellaneous lane closures will take place during the day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and at night from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. through October.
35Express Community Meeting
35Express will host a Community Meeting for residents of Carrollton and Farmers Branch on Monday, October 19 at 6:30 p.m. held at Farmers Branch City Hall (13000 Williams Dodson Parkway). Residents are encouraged to attend to ask questions and receive more information about the project and upcoming traffic patterns.
As work continues on the reconstruction of the Belt Line Road and Interstate 35E interchange, a new traffic pattern is now in place. East and westbound Belt Line Road between Denton Drive and Hutton Road will be shifted south and reduced to two traffic lanes in each direction. Belt Line Road will have two lanes in each direction through mid-2017. Due to this traffic pattern change, eastbound motorists wishing to access the RaceTrac gas station will use Broadway Street.
The 35Express project will reconstruct the intersection at Belt Line Road and I-35E. Once complete, Belt Line Road will be elevated to the current height of I-35E and I-35E will be raised approximately 25 feet higher than its current elevation. Construction in this area is expected to last through mid-2017.
This work is related to the 35Express project, an expansion of I-35E between U.S. Highway 380 in Denton County and I-635 in Dallas County. All closures are subject to weather conditions and may be postponed, if necessary.
For more information on the 35Express project and to sign up to receive text alerts, please visit www.35Express.org or call 214-483-7777.

Smoking With Kyle Hemmings
I had been reading about it and I'm always fascinated with the question of what it would have been like to be alive during some great historic event. Imagine if you could step back into the past and be present at this fair. Would you view it any differently than the people who had no knowledge of events to come. Most likely, you would. The people at this fair had no knowledge of something like WWII or the jet plane.
About a third of the way in, this takes a turn. A waitress disappears. The lights and innovation are now accompanied by something dark. Tell us about this shift and about how light and darkness affect both the story and the fair itself.
Okay. You have this very festive occasion. But in reality there was a serial killer murdering people during the fair. So there's this contrast between the wonders of new technology and the dark impulses in the human soul. This is where the play between light and shadows come in at the fair. I'm tempted to think of a movie like Fritz Lang's M. The great use of light and dark in German Expressionism and the role of towering buildings, skyscrapers.
The narrator here has a broad view of the fair and the city and its people, even of the future. Who is the narrator?
Interesting question. The narrator appears to be omniscient, could be me or you or anyone living in the present and looking back and making judgments as to how much progress actually took place over the last one-hundred fifty years or so. It's a narrator who knows there is no progress without mishaps or unforeseen consequences. I'd like to say with technology comes responsibility. Again there is that question of how new technology, as displayed at the fair, would be used and in whose hands.
What is it that draws us to fairs, and midways in particular?
There is the great sense of spectacle, of witnessing and participating in something new and exciting. When you look back, you can say I was there. I remember as a child I had been to one world's fair. I felt connected to the people, to the achievements of brilliant minds, and in some way, to the future. I never forgot it.

A new online programme in Global eHealth is currently being developed under the auspices of the Centre for Population Health Sciences (CPHS) and the Global Health Academy. This modular and interdisciplinary programme will allow students to acquire in depth knowledge of eHealth from an international perspective and with reference to issues for global development. Foundational courses will cover key concepts and methods in health informatics, global health challenges, eHealth policies and international health systems. These will be complemented by a programme of interdisciplinary options covering digital health innovations with reference to effectiveness, sociological and cultural aspects of implementation, ethical and governance issues and business processes. While evidence-based eHealth will be a pervasive theme through the programme, completion of the module in Research Methods for eHealth will be a core requirement for progression to the MSc project. The course is expected to appeal to clinicians, eHealth implementation personnel, allied health practitioners, NGOs, eHealth policymakers, innovators and technologists, and academic researchers. All modules will be credit bearing and may be used towards a certificate, diploma or masters qualification, depending on the duration of study (one, two or three years).
The announce reads,"We have set up a short survey and would be delighted to hear from anyone interested in online postgraduate study in Global eHealth. Your feedback will help shape the content and structure of this new programme, and there is an opportunity to leave your contact details so we can keep you up to date on any developments."
For further information, please visit:
About the Centre for Population Health Sciences
The Centre for Population Health Sciences (CPHS) draws on a long history of public health and general practice at the University of Edinburgh. The Centre brings together researchers with expertise in epidemiology, statistics and modelling, sociology, social policy, psychology, economics, geography, health promotion, nursing and medicine. Thus CPHS research projects can take advantage of a multi-disciplinary approach when needed, which is often the case in population health research. The mission of CPHS encompasses four inter-linked activities.

Town hall debate: Independent voters in KC have yet to make up their minds
Even after Tuesday night's debates many Independent voters are still undecided.
Both campaigns are zeroed in on those Independent voters. We watched the debate with two undecided Kansas City voters. Trish Steen and John Martin are both registered Independents.
Both voted for Obama back in 2008, but now Steen can't make up her mind and Martin is leaning toward Romney.
After Tuesday's debate, not much has changed.
"I'm still on the fence. I just really don't know who to believe, who to trust," said Steen.
She would liked to have heard a question directed at Governor Romney's tax plan. She wants more specifics. She is still unsure if she is ready to give up on Obama.
"Four years isn't going to get us out of the hole and sometimes I want to give Obama that extra... my backing, but I'm not sure, is he really cut out to do it?" said Steen.
Both did agree they liked the town hall format better and that the questions were coming from the audience.
"I'm much more happy with this debate even though I was happy with the last debate just because I wanted to hear more about what Romney had to say because we've had four years of Obama, so I was more interested in the last debate hearing what Mitt Romney is all about," said Martin.
Martin isn't convinced Obama has what it takes.
"I don't necessarily believe that a career politician is necessarily an economist. I believe that Mr. Romney knows what it takes to get business going," said Martin.
Steen wants to wait until the next debate before making up her mind. Martin is more confident he might vote for Romney.
"I could be swayed, but I'm not sure what would do it to be honest with you because I would have to regain a whole lot more faith and trust in our current President," said Martin.
