Seeking a new way to reach out to the community and heal those in need Cancer Awareness Prevalence Prevention and Early Detection, CAPPED Inc., is hosting a mini-conference to introduce a modern method of medical therapy.
CAPPED Inc.. Executive Director, RN Tresa VanWinkle invited a doctor who is an expert in Bioregulation Therapy.
VanWinkle said Dr. Gabor Lednyiczky, of Budapest, Hungary, will visit the CAPPED building at 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. on Monday.
"We are just incredibly fortunate that Dr. Gabor happened to be working in the U.S. and that he has time to speak with us and teach us about Bioregulation Therapy and, its clinical applications," VanWinkle said.
VanWinkle said bioregulation is the understanding that communication between cells in the human body is based on a vast information flow enabling a body to function as open non-linear self-regulating cybernetic system.
She explained that BRT clinical application methods focus on helping the body maintain natural physiological processes and its equilibrium. She said Dr. Lednyiczky created a non-invasive holistic approach to wellness that fine-tunes the body at the cellular level.
"If you heal at the cellular level you are ultimately helping the body heal and restore its natural balance and reach homeostasis," she said. "I learned about the system and sent him an email. There are not many things that come along that I get this excited about."
VanWinkle said she recently purchased Lednyiczky's Lenyo SanoCenter using her own money she had saved up for retirement.
The system cost her $13,000.
"I bought it with my own savings," she said. "That's how strong I feel about it. I feel it's an investment in the health of our community."
She said Lednyiczky gave her a 25 percent discount on the BRT system and that it was originally priced at $18,000.
VanWinkle said during Lednyiczky's conference, people would be able to try out the Lenyo SanoCenter to see how it works.
"As far as I know this type of therapy has not been in Alamogordo before," she said. "So, I hope a lot of people show up to learn about it and try it for themselves."
VanWinkle said the Lenyo SanoCenter would be used along with all the other therapeutic programs that CAPPED's wellness lounge currently offers. She said she hadn't yet figured out a rate she would charge patrons to use the system.
"Since we are a non-profit organization all the money we make off of using the Lenyo SanoCenter will directly into CAPPED to keep the doors open for the people who rely on this place for comfort and therapy," she said.
VanWinkle clarified that the system does not and is not a treatment for any disease or illness. She said it was meant to ease pain for people suffering from diseases or illnesses.
"It's a comfort therapy," she said.
Vanwinkle said people who are stressed or find themselves tired all the time could also use the system. She said in our modern day society people are bombarded by many outside forces and stressors and being able to rejuvenate themselves at the cellular level is good for them.
For more information or to attend the conference, call 434-4673 or visit CAPPED at 907 New York Ave.

California's New State Parks Will Get You All Wet
A new series of marine parks creates an almost unbroken chain of protected ocean from Mexico to Oregon.
California just opened several new state parks, but you may need scuba gear to visit them. They're underwater.
The new parks include a massive kelp forest off the coast of La Jolla, coral reefs around Catalina Island, and an underwater canyon near Malibu. In total, there are about three dozen new protected marine areas in Southern California where scuba diving, kayaking, and surfing are encouraged but fishing is either tightly restricted or prohibited altogether.
The boundaries of the parks were decided with input from thousands of stakeholders, including scientists, environmentalists, fishermen, and residents. The protected areas cover more than 350 square miles of the state's most productive and diverse marine habitats.
These new parks, which became official on January 1st, are part of a vast network of ocean parks that was called for by the state's 1999 Marine Life Protection Act. The first were established along California's central coast in 2007 and 2010. The third and final section, in northern California, will be added in a year or so, completing a series of protected ocean areas that stretches from Oregon to Mexico.
Having a large network of parks provides important benefits. According to Stanford biologist Larry Crowder: "California made a really innovative step here, to link marine protected areas in a network … this helps fish and other marine life feed and breed … a single protected area doesn't achieve what a network of linked protected areas would do."
Fishermen aren't entirely happy about these areas being off limits, especially with pesky volunteer environmentalists patrolling their boundaries. But if the new parks prevent the kind of collapse that hit populations of barred sand bass and kelp bass in 2011, they may be good for the fishermen in the long run.
And given that California's coast and ocean account for an estimated $22 billion in revenue and hundreds of thousands of jobs, protecting these areas may mean real economic benefits for the rest of the state as well.

All good, except they forgot to figure in Native American gathering sites that had been used for thousands of years, which will now be off limits. Especially up north on the much more rugged, wilder North Coast near the Oregon border, it is unclear why these people are suddenly going to be barred from harvesting seaweed, barnacles, limpets and mussels for food and ceremonial purposes as they have for over 9,000 years. The MLPA didn't even think of this aspect until they started to work on the north coast where native people still gather. The protected areas themselves up here are often lightly harvested to begin with, but are important areas for the local Tribes.
Excluding tribes from the plans is actually a criminal act and can be used to dismantle the entire program, if MLPA doesn't revise their plans. Let's hope they take that into account when making plans for Northern California.
Couldn't have said it better. Thank You.

Legendary Mixed Routes Repeated in France
News Link: During a long trip to France, British climber Tim Emmett has completed some rarely repeated ice and mixed routes, including the first free ascent of a seven-pitch testpiece from the mid-1990s.
With fellow Brit Nick Bullock, Emmett climbed La Lyre (550m, VI WI7), considered the hardest ice route in the world when it was first led in 1992 by Thierry Renault. The route, which concludes with three WI6 or harder pitches in a row, is dangerously exposed to the sun, and two climbers were killed nearby by falling ice shortly after the British ascent.
In mid-January, Emmett and French guide Jérôme Blanc-Gras made the first free ascent of Sous L'Oeil des Choucas (300m, WI7 M9). Emmett freed the two A2 pitches on the 1996 route, giving a climb with pitches of M5, M6, WI7, M6, M9, WI6+, and WI4.
Click here to see Emmett's brief report and some photos. Bullock posted an account of La Lyre and other wild French climbs, with excellent photos, at nickbullock.blogware.com.

The wind storm that ripped through the Grand Valley on Wednesday left behind a lot of destruction, and this means a lot of cleaning up to do.
It started off as a normal evening for the Smith family, but then they heard a loud crash as a tree came crashing down in their front yard.
Jeff Hopkins, who lives in the home says, "It shook the whole house, it sounded like thunder."
The one hundred year old tree was no match for the 63 mile per hour winds that ripped it out of the ground. The Smith family says there were a lot of things in the trees path, but luckily nothing was struck or smashed.
Hopkins says, "The dogs were out back, one limb came really close to hitting the dog. Another branch just missed our pick up truck, we got lucky."
This family is even luckier that the massive tree didn't land on their home. If it had, Hopkins says he probably wouldn't be here.
Now starts the long process of clean up as the family removes one branch at a time with a single chain saw. At this rate, Smith says, the project could take a month. "

Penn State's Christian Hackenberg (14) and Allen Robinson celebrate after a 23-17 victory against Syracuse at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on August 31, 2013.
When Allen Robinson arrived at Orchard Lake St. Mary's, he was hardly intimidating.
Standing "about 5-foot-5, 135 pounds for the freshman football team," St. Mary's coach George Porritt overlooked that and saw his athleticism.
But at a school known for producing high-end Division I football players, Robinson didn't project anywhere near that. ...

Thanks to you I think I figured out the perfect defense against Inner Gates Lee :D
XD you too man lol. What's that? Hinata? I wonder what defense jutsu is faster, Neji or Hinata?
Another good cover, is Tobi and his minefield, I don't know the exact timing, but everytime I would teleport my cousin would minefield and blow me up. >_<
Tis a shame that the non-beastial awakenings have a pretty good counter, now I need a counter for that counter =P
@zachc its cool man lol.
I never would have guessed Tobi though, his moves are so weird that I don't know where he's going half the time even if I'm using him XD
We should play again later

jeff jarvis recently returned from dubai a city he thinks:
is either an act of fiction or of the future. I arrived thinking the former; I leave wondering whether it could be the latter.
i am glad he decided to do bur dubai which is one of the many hearts of that city. he also did well to to go looking for the soul of dubai and even came close to finding it:
The essence of Dubai, it turns out, is that it's not Dubai at all.
almost but not quite. the real dubai is to be found in its ultra-cosmopolitan composition (and the locals are included in its makeup jeff, if only as a distinct minority)

TAUNTON — Martha's Vineyard came out strong and battled throughout, but it was Coyle-Cassidy that came out on top 58-51 in an Eastern Athletic Conference matchup on Tuesday night.
Martha's Vineyard (12-4, 5-3 EAC) outscored Coyle-Cassidy (7-9, 3-4 EAC) 22-10 in the opening quarter and led 31-26 at the half, but the Warriors outscored the Vineyarders 24-11 in the third quarter to take the lead.
The Vineyard pulled within three points with just over a minute left, but Coyle-Cassidy made a key late bucket to hold on for the win.
Kat deBettencourt and Jennie Lindland led the Vineyarders with 17 points each.
Upper Cape 47, Cape Tech 15
HARWICH — Double-digit scoring from Krystle DiBona, Allison Krystofolski and Jodi Young was the difference as the Rams rolled the Crusaders.
DiBona led the way in scoring for Upper Cape with 12 points, while fellow Rams Krystofolski and Young weren't far behind with 11 and 10 points respectively.
Freshmen Alexandra Hill and Dasia Green both put in strong outings for the Rams as well.
Jamien Meservey led the way in scoring for the Crusaders with six points.
The Rams (8-9, 4-5 Mayflower Athletic Conference Small) will look to continue their strong play today at Holbrook.
BRIDGEWATER — In what has allready been a trying season for the Sharks, the loss of senior Meghan Richer hurts an already-strained Monomoy roster.
According to coach Joe Nickerson, Richer sustained an arm injury and left the game to be evaluated further.
Tia Gurley stepped up for the Sharks with seven points. Fellow Shark Savannah Chase led the way in scoring with 12 points.
The Sharks (7-10, 4-8 South Shore League) will look to rebound on Friday at Cohasset.
SWANSEA — Amanda Pomeroy and Brie Girouard each scored 12 points as the Canalmen pulled away from the Cardinals in the second half of a South Coast Conference matchup.
Girouard added 18 rebounds to her effort and Chelsea Doucette scored 10 points and hauled in 12 boards as the formidable forward tandem dominated the frontcourt against inferior Case.
Bourne outscored the Cardinals 34-14 in the second half and improved to 15-2 on the season.
The Canalmen are at Wareham on Friday.
MARSHFIELD — Erin Callahan and Kaitlyn Jesse combined for 35 points to lead the Rams over the Warriors.
Marshfield was in control from the beginning, building a 42-12 lead at the half.
Nauset (4-13) was led by Carolyn Brook's 12 points. Jenny Leighton and Callie Schedt (6-for-6 from the free-throw line, each scored six points.
The Warriors will next play Plymouth North at home on Friday.
PLYMOUTH — Sophomore Meghan Reardon's offensive explosion was the difference as she led the Blue Knights past the league foe Eagles.
Reardon accounted for 20 points, hitting two 3-pointers, and going 6-7 from the free-throw line.
Also putting in a strong game for the Blue Knights was Carly Whittle (10 points).
The Sandwich defense was stifling, creating pressure and causing many turnovers.
The Blue Knights (7-8, 6-3 Atlantic Coast League) will look to break the .500 mark on Friday when they play at Dennis-Yarmouth.

40 years ago Sunday, Clemente notched 3,000th and final hit
Pirates/MLB Videos
It wasn't Jon Matlack's best curve ball, said Duffy Dyer, the New York Mets catcher. It started too high, and the break could have been tighter. But the hitter still had to lunge slightly to reach the low and outside pitch, and rather than flick it to the opposite field or miss it entirely as a lesser player might have done, Roberto Clemente pulled it into the left-centerfield gap.
"I thought he was fooled a little bit, but his hands were back, and he just flipped the bat," said Dyer, a future Pirate who was behind the plate at mostly empty Three Rivers Stadium on Sept. 30, 1972. "If it was someone like me, it would have been a weak ground ball to shortstop."
But this was Clemente, "The Great One," the Pirates' legendary right fielder, hitting a double off Matlack, a 22-year-old rookie left-hander. Clemente became the 11th major leaguer — and first Latino — with 3,000 career hits.
In 40 years since, 17 players have done so. Yet, this occasion resonates because nearly three months later, on New Year's Eve, Clemente, 38, died in a plane crash on a relief mission to earthquake-ravaged Nicaragua.
"In a sense, the context is everything," historian Rob Ruck said. "It's going to be the 40th anniversary of his death at the end of the year. But certainly in terms of the achievement, there's a symmetry, an elegance to his life and death, to reach the milestone and to die three months later."
The Pirates had clinched the National League East title (they lost to Cincinnati in the playoffs), and Bill Mazeroski pinch-hit for Clemente in the fifth inning. He did not bat again during the regular season.
Among baseball's notable feats, probably only Lou Gehrig's record streak of consecutive games, ended by an incurable disease, matches the poignancy of Clemente's accomplishment and subsequent tragedy.
"There is a literary quality to it, a sadness," said John Thorn, a Major League Baseball historian.
Only 13,117 people showed up to watch that game on a damp, chilly Saturday afternoon. A few miles away, the University of Pittsburgh Panthers lost to Northwestern in Pitt Stadium to fall to 0-3. That game drew more than 18,000.
Matlack, today the Houston Astros' minor league pitching coordinator, struck out Clemente in the first inning. Leading off the fourth, Clemente asked teammate Willie Stargell to pick a bat for him. Stargell examined three before handing Clemente a Louisville Slugger. Stepping in, Clemente took a strike. The crowd shivered and waited anxiously.
"Everybody's standing," the late Bob Prince, voice of the Pirates, boomed into the KDKA-radio microphone. "They want Bobby to get that big three thousand."
Clemente wanted it, too. Badly. He wanted the chase to be over. He had barely slept. Still, he spent time before the game talking to people, kids especially, and posing for pictures.
He was tired but no longer angry. In Friday night's game, stuck at 2,999 hits, Clemente thought he had a hit but the call was changed to an error. He cursed and fumed in the clubhouse but then calmed down. "Deep down, I think I would rather have a clean hit," he said.
Now he had another chance. "Matlack on the 0-and-1," Prince said.
The young lefty wound up and delivered. "I'm disappointed because I'm thinking it's gonna be a ball," Matlack recalled. Clemente, a classic bad-ball hitter, took an awkward cut that would make most other hitters look foolish.
"I'm thinking, why is he swinging?" Matlack said.
Prince: "Bobby hits a drive to the gap in left-centerfield! There she is!"
Watching from the dugout was Chuck Goggin, a 27-year-old rookie utility man, a Marine who survived stepping on a land mine in Vietnam. He joined the Pirates from the minors three weeks earlier. This was his fourth game in the majors, and he started at second base. Leading off, Goggin singled for his first big league hit. He singled again in the third.
When the postgame fuss over Clemente subsided, Goggin remained seated alone by his locker, clutching the precious ball from his hit. A reporter told a photographer to shoot Goggin and Clemente posing together.
"A couple of months later, I got an envelope with the picture, which is one of the proudest pictures I have."
Clemente "congratulated me on getting my first hit," Goggin said. "I told him at this rate it was probably going to take me 1,500 years to catch him."
Goggin ended his major league career with 29 hits.
He watched Clemente round first, arms flying as always, then ease up and glide into second with a stand-up double.
"There was nothing like watching him run the bases," said Rusty Staub, who was playing right field for the Mets. "And that unique hitting stroke he had." He chuckled, "We just prayed to God nobody taught it at his camp."
On second base, Clemente waved his helmet, a gesture frozen in a famous photograph that would assume greater meaning in coming months.
Pirates pitching ace Steve Blass was among those who lobbied for Clemente's moment at second base to be memorialized in a Clemente statue dedicated outside Three Rivers in 1994 and moved to PNC Park. Another pose was used instead.
"I thought it was very symbolic," said Blass, now a Pirates broadcaster. "I thought it captured Clemente."
Matlack finally caught on that something big had happened when he noticed commotion around second base.
"I'm sort of standing there wondering, 'What the heck is going on? We have a ballgame to play. Why the fuss?' " he said.
Between innings, Clemente ran to his position and again tipped his cap. Among fans in the right field stands was 14-year-old Ann Ranalli, now Ann King, who rode a streetcar Downtown from her home in Dormont and walked across the Fort Duquesne Bridge for the game. King remembers thinking, "He's tipping his cap to us."
Outspoken, fiercely competitive and stubbornly dedicated to humanitarian causes, Clemente did not always enjoy a warm relationship with fans and media during his 18-year career.
Nevertheless, he said after the game: "I dedicate this hit to the fans of Pittsburgh. They have been wonderful. And to the people back home in Puerto Rico."

Although we Men are already very well looked at in the fashion world, the Girls have always had a more edgier and innovative set of creators to tend to there needs. But that will not always be the case! The brands are realizing that the "Men" is the new "Women" when it comes to shopping for fashion. We are taking more and more care of how we look, and that means spending quite a bit of scratch on the way. So… brands like Jimmy Choo, and I bet that some more are on the way, started Men lines… Yuuupppiiii … The suede oxfords are my favorites.
Enjoy the pics, and drop me a line to say what's on your mind!!!….

Arizona radio host Barbara Espinosa used some pretty vile words to describe President Barack Obama during her show last week as Fox.com reported.
"I call him (Obama) a monkey " the Phoenix-based talker said on the air. "I don't believe in calling him the first black president I voted for the white guy myself, I call him a monkey."
Republicans haven't exactly been lining up to denounce Espinosa's vulgar comments. Perhaps if she had called Obama a vagina
