Himalaya Herbal Healthcare, Bitter Melon, 60 Caplets
By Himalaya Herbal Healthcare32 Reviews
Expiration Date:?Mar 2018
Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.18 lbs (0.08 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

iHerb Customer Reviews
My husband is a Type 2 diabetic. He ignored dietary restrictions and failed to monitor blood sugar levels for months. I bought him Bitter Melon, but he refused to take it. I had noticed his worsening excessive thirst and his need to sleep after meals. When my husband finally measured his blood sugar level after eating, the score was 398. One hour after a Metformim tablet prescribed by an M.D., the blood sugar level had increased to 458. Numbers in the 400s were recorded for days. In desperation, after several days of frightemimgly high blood sugar levels, my husband took Bitter Melon before bed. To our great surprise and relief, his blood sugar that first the morning was 298. The second morning, his blood sugar level was 258. The third morning following Bitter Melon at bedtime, my husband's blood sugar level was 225. We are now on day #4 of this experiment with Bitter Melon as a natural control for blood sugar. The results have been nothing short of amazing. My husband will continue to use Bitter Melon, and will soon consult his M.D. about possibly adjusting the recommended dose of Metformin, which did not control his blood sugar when taken without the addition of Bitter Melon.
I don't know the numbers because I'm kind of in denial :-), but I do know that the triangle around my nose changed in color from red to normal, and my water intake changed from 3-4 liters a day from thirst to having to make myself drink one liter a day, within a few days of starting bitter melon. Plus I just feel so much better overall. I bought this product because it seemed like the best value for the money. I can't speak to the effectiveness of the other bitter melon products sold at this web site, but I can say I'm very satisfied with this one and just reordered three more bottles of it. Good luck to you all! John

ABSTRACT: Two experiments explore the relationship between implicit and explicit processes in the acquisition of complex knowledge. Their purpose is twofold. Firstly, to specify some of the variables that control whether or not performance and explicit knowledge will be associated when people interact with computer-implemented control tasks. Secondly, to clarify the relationships between implicit and explicit modes of learning on the one hand and implicit and explicit types of knowledge on the other. The experiments show that salience of the relationship between decision and action is a crucial factor in relation to both the distinction between implicit and explicit learning and the distinction between implict and explicit knowledge.

ABSTRACT: Information about side effects is a priority for patients, but current leaflets do not include data about frequency of side effects □ The EU recommends the use of verbal descriptors such as "very common" and "rare" linked to specific incidence rates □ This study shows that people taking medicine who are given verbal descriptors grossly over-estimate side effect incidence □ Verbal descriptors also led to patients perceiving a higher personal risk of getting the side effect, compared with those given the numerical description □ If patients are to be partners in medicine taking they need to understand the level of risk of side effects. Further research is ***eeded to determine how this can be achieved
Article: Patients' attitudes towards, and information needs in relation to, nurse prescribing in Rheumatology[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To assess the level of confidence that rheumatology patients would have in nurse prescribing, the effects on likely adherence and particular concerns that these patients have. In addition, given that information provision has been cited as a potential benefit of nurse prescribing, the present study assessed the extent to which these patients would want an explanation for the selected medicine, as well as which types of information should be included in such an explanation. Nurse prescribing has been successfully implemented in the UK in several healthcare settings. Existing research has not addressed the effects on patients' confidence and likely adherence, nor have patients' information needs been established. However, we know that inadequate medicines information provision by health professionals is one of the largest causes of patient dissatisfaction. Fifty-four patients taking disease-modifying drugs for inflammatory joint disease attending a specialist rheumatology clinic self-completed a written questionnaire. Patients indicated a relatively high level of confidence in nurse prescribing and stated that they would be very likely to take the selected medication. The level of concern was relatively low and the majority of concerns raised did not relate to the nurse's status. Strong support was expressed for the nurse providing an explanation for medicine choice. This research provides support for the prescription of medicines by nurses working in the area of rheumatology, the importance of nurses providing a full explanation about the selected medicines they prescribe for these patients and some indication as to which categories of information should be included. Rheumatology patients who have not yet experienced nurse prescribing are, in general, positive about nurses adopting this role. It is important that nurses provide appropriate information about the prescribed medicines, in a form that can be understood.
Article: What do patients want to know about their medicines and what do doctors want to tell them? A comparative study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A two phase study is reported. In the first phase, we asked a number of doctors to rate a list of information categories (identified by Berry, Gillie and Banbury 1995) in terms of how important they felt it was for the items to be included in an explanation to a patient about a drug prescription. In the second phase, we presented a large sample of people with a scenario about visiting their doctor and being prescribed medication, together with an explanation about the prescription which was said to be provided by the doctor. Four different explanations were compared, which were either based on what people in our earlier study wanted to know about drug prescriptions or on what the doctors thought it was important lo tell them. We also manipulated whether or not the explanations conveyed negative information (e.g. about the possible side effects of the medication). The results showed that people 'preferred' the explanations based on what the participants in the earlier study wanted to know about their medicines, rather than those based on what the doctors thought they should be told. They also 'preferred' the explanations that did not convey negative information, rather than those that did convey some negative information. In addition, the inclusion of negative information affected ratings of likely compliance with the prescribed medication.
Article: Differences in perceived risks and benefits of herbal, over-the-counter conventional, and prescribed conventional, medicines, and the implications of this for the safe and effective use of herbal products[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate people's views about the efficacy and specific risks of herbal, over-the-counter (OTC) conventional, and prescribed conventional medicines, and their likelihood of taking a second (herbal or OTC conventional) product in addition to a prescribed medicine. Experiment 1 (1 factor within-participant design); Experiment 2 (1 factor between-participant design). Convenience samples of general population were given a hypothetical scenario and required to make a number of judgements. People believed herbal remedies to be less effective, but less risky than OTC and prescribed conventional medicines. Herbal medicines were not seen as being safer simply because of their easier availability. Participants indicated that they would be more likely to take a herbal medicine than a conventional OTC medicine in addition to a prescribed medicine, and less likely to consult their doctor in advance. People believe that herbal medicines are natural and relatively safe and can be used with less caution. People need to be given clear information about the risks and benefits of herbal medicines if they are to use such products safely and effectively.
Article: The problem of implicit knowledge[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Recognising the existence of different forms of knowledge is a first step towards effective knowledge elicitation. This article takes a brief look at some of the different types of knowledge which human experts possess and then focusses on the problem of implicit knowledge.The fact that much of an expert's knowledge is implicit or tacit in nature is a major problem for those working in the area of knowledge elicitation. Despite this, the topic has attracted little discussion or research. The present article reviews some of the limited literature on the topic and attempts to settle some of the confusion over what implicit knowledge is, or might be. Relevant experiments from the psychological literature are discussed. The paper also looks at possible ways of assessing implicit knowledge and makes recommendations for future research in this area.
Article: Evaluating expert systems[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Evaluation is crucial for improving expert system design and performance. This paper stresses the need for considering system evaluation throughout the development process. It highlights the importance of evaluating system usability and discusses key usability issues. A number of basic evaluation methods are described, including interviews, questionnaires, observation, system logging, user diaries, laboratory experiments and field trials. Finally, the paper looks at evaluating systems within organisations, and assessing other long term effects of expert systems.

ABSTRACT: Abstract This is the second part of a report which looks at expert systems and the man-machine interface (mmi). The term 'mmi' is interpreted in a fairly broad sense to include knowledge acquisition and cognitive aspects of the user interface. Part One of the report (published in the previous issue of Expert Systems) examines what is currently happening in the area of knowledge acquisition in Britain and asks whether it really is the major bottleneck in the production of expert systems. Part Two of the report looks at cognitive aspects of the user interface, including dialogue control, explanation facilities, user models, natural language processing and the effects of new technology. It also considers the very important question of evaluation. Again the report is concerned with what is actually happening in these areas in Britain today.
Article: The benefits of providing benefit information: Examining the effectiveness of provision of simple benefit statements on people's judgements about a medicine[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Three experiments examined the effects of adding information about medication benefits to a short written explanation about a medicine. Participants were presented with a fictitious scenario about visiting the doctor, being prescribed an antibiotic and being given information about the medicine. They were asked to make various judgements relating to the information, the medicine and their intention to take it. Experiment 1 found that information about benefits enhanced the judgements, but did not influence the intention to comply. Experiment 2 compared the relative effectiveness of two different forms of the benefit statement, and found that both were effective in improving judgements, but had no effect on intention to comply. Experiment 3 compared the effectiveness of the two forms of benefit information but participants were told that the medicine was associated with four named side effects. Both types of statement improved ratings of the intention to comply, as well as ratings on the other measures. The experiments provide fairly consistent support for the inclusion of benefit information in medicine information leaflets, particularly to balance concerns about side effects.

ABSTRACT: Two experiments investigated the influence of implicit memory on consumer choice for brands with varying levels of familiarity. Priming was measured using a consideration-choice task, developed by Coates, Butler and Berry (2004). Experiment 1 employed a coupon-rating task at encoding that required participants to meaningfully process individual brand names, to assess whether priming could affect participants' final (preferred) choices for familiar brands. Experiment 2 used this same method to assess the impact of implicit memory on consideration and choice for unknown and leader brands, presented in conjunction with familiar competitors. Significant priming was obtained in both experiments, and was shown to directly influence final choice in the case of familiar and highly familiar leader brands. Moreover, it was shown that a single prior exposure could lead participants to consider buying an unknown, and indeed fictitious, brand. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Article: Expressing medicine side effects: Assessing the effectiveness of absolute risk, relative risk, and number needed to harm, and the provision of baseline risk information[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To assess the effectiveness of absolute risk, relative risk, and number needed to harm formats for medicine side effects, with and without the provision of baseline risk information. A two factor, risk increase format (relative, absolute and NNH)xbaseline (present/absent) between participants design was used. A sample of 268 women was given a scenario about increase in side effect risk with third generation oral contraceptives, and were required to answer written questions to assess their understanding, satisfaction, and likelihood of continuing to take the drug. Provision of baseline information significantly improved risk estimates and increased satisfaction, although the estimates were still considerably higher than the actual risk. No differences between presentation formats were observed when baseline information was presented. Without baseline information, absolute risk led to the most accurate performance. The findings support the importance of informing people about baseline level of risk when describing risk increases. In contrast, they offer no support for using number needed to harm. Health professionals should provide baseline risk information when presenting information about risk increases or decreases. More research is needed before numbers needed to harm (or treat) should be given to members of the general populations.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to assess whether the use of verbal descriptors, such as "common" and "rare" affects peoples perceptions of the risks involved in clinical trials as well as their likelihood of entering into the trial. Participants were required to imagine that they had a serious skin condition and being asked if they would take part in a clinical trial for a new drug. They were provided with some information about the trial and drug, in which the probability of side effects occurring was described using either verbal labels alone or verbal labels with associated numerical values. The results showed that those given just the verbal descriptors were significantly less satisfied with the information, perceived risk to be higher (by a factor of three) and benefit to health to be lower, and indicated that they would be significantly less likely to enter the trial. We recommend that patients are informed about the likelihood of potential risks using verbal terms linked with indicative frequency ranges
Article: Attitudes towards, and information needs in relation to, supplementary nurse prescribing in the UK: An empirical study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The main aim of the study is to assess the views of people, who have not yet experienced nurse prescribing, to determine their level of confidence in nurse as opposed to doctor prescribing, effects on likely adherence and concerns that they might have. Additionally, the extent to which people would want nurses to provide an explanation for medicine choice and the type of information wanted was examined. Nurse prescribing has been successfully implemented in the UK in a number of healthcare settings. Existing research has not addressed effects on people's confidence and likely adherence, nor have people's information needs been established. However, we know that inadequate medicines information provision by health professionals is one of the largest causes of patient dissatisfaction. A convenience sample of 74 members of the general population self-completed a written questionnaire. In general, people would have confidence in the nurse having prescribed the best medicine and say that they would be very likely to take the medicine. Concerns identified did not specifically relate to the nurses' status. Support is provided for the importance of nurses providing a full explanation about medicines, and some indication about which categories of information should be included. Information about medication side effects was most wanted by participants. Independent and Supplementary Prescribing are pivotal to modernizing the NHS. The current study establishes people's initial views and concerns about nurse prescribing and assesses information needs. Support for initiating follow-on studies with particular patient groups is also provided. People who have not yet experienced nurse prescribing are, in general, positive about nurses adopting this role. It is important that nurses provide appropriate information about the prescribed medicines, in a form that can be understood. This should include information about medication side effects.
Article: Informing People About the Risks and Benefits of Medicines: Implications for the Safe and Effective Use of Medicinal Products[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Providing effective information about drug risks and benefits has become a major challenge for health professionals, as many people are ill equipped to understand, retain and use the information effectively. This paper reviews the growing evidence that people's understanding (and health behaviour) is not only affected by the content of medicines information, but also by the particular way in which it is presented. Such presentational factors include whether information is presented verbally or numerically, framed positively or negatively, whether risk reductions are described in relative or absolute terms (and baseline information included), and whether information is personalized or tailored in any way. It also looks at how understanding is affected by the order in which information is presented, and the way in which it is processed. The paper concludes by making a number of recommendations for providers of medicines information, about both the content and presentation of such information, that should enhance safe and effective medicines usage.

Article: Effects of presenting the baseline risk when communicating absolute and relative risk reductions[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study compares relative and absolute forms of presenting risk information about influenza and the need for vaccination. It investigates whether differences in people's risk estimates and their evaluations of risk information, as a result of the different presentation formats, are still apparent when they are provided with information about the baseline level of risk. The results showed that, in the absence of baseline information, the relative risk format resulted in higher ratings of satisfaction, perceived effectiveness of vaccination, and likelihood of being vaccinated. However, these differences were not apparent when baseline information was presented. Overall, provision of baseline information resulted in more accurate risk estimates and more positive evaluations of the risk messages. It is recommended that, in order to facilitate shared and fully informed decision making, information about baseline level of risk should be included in all health communications specifying risk reductions, irrespective of the particular format adopted.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to empirically evaluate an embodied conversational agent called GRETA in an effort to answer two main questions: (1) What are the benefits (and costs) of presenting information via an animated agent, with certain characteristics, in a 'persuasion' task, compared to other forms of display? (2) How important is it that emotional expressions are added in a way that is consistent with the content of the message, in animated agents? To address these questions, a positively framed healthy eating message was created which was variously presented via GRETA, a matched human actor, GRETA's voice only (no face) or as text only. Furthermore, versions of GRETA were created which displayed additional emotional facial expressions in a way that was either consistent or inconsistent with the content of the message. Overall, it was found that although GRETA received significantly higher ratings for helpfulness and likability, presenting the message via GRETA led to the poorest memory performance among users. Importantly, however, when GRETA's additional emotional expressions were consistent with the content of the verbal message, the negative effect on memory performance disappeared. Overall, the findings point to the importance of achieving consistency in animated agents.

ABSTRACT: The efficacy of explicit and implicit learning paradigms was examined during the very early stages of learning the perceptual-motor anticipation task of predicting ball direction from temporally occluded footage of soccer penalty kicks. In addition, the effect of instructional condition on point-of-gaze during learning was examined. A significant improvement in horizontal prediction accuracy was observed in the explicit learning group; however, similar improvement was evident in a placebo group who watched footage of soccer matches. Only the explicit learning intervention resulted in changes in eye movement behaviour and increased awareness of relevant postural cues. Results are discussed in terms of methodological and practical issues regarding the employment of implicit perceptual training interventions.
Article: Banbury SP, Berry DC. Office noise and employee concentration: identifying causes of disruption and potential improvements[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A field study assessed subjective reports of distraction from various office sounds among 88 employees at two sites. In addition, the study examined the amount of exposure the workers had to the noise in order to determine any evidence for habituation. Finally, respondents were asked how they would improve their environment (with respect to noise), and to rate examples of improvements with regards to their job satisfaction and performance. Out of the sample, 99% reported that their concentration was impaired by various components of office noise, especially telephones left ringing at vacant desks and people talking in the background. No evidence for habituation to these sounds was found. These results are interpreted in the light of previous research regarding the effects of noise in offices and the 'irrelevant sound effect'.

Why 3MP is better than 6MP, why old lenses are better than new... it really is a different world. It has me intrigued that fewer pixels are better for this kind of thing.
Nice images, what a lot of work, but if he enjoys it, why not.

Man arrested in Vt. over stolen soccer moneyThe Associated Press | March 22,2013Vermont State Police have arrested a man wanted in Pennsylvania on suspicion of stealing over $20,000 from a youth soccer team.
Daniel Deets, former treasurer for the team, had not appeared at a preliminary hearing in Pennsylvania's Pike County on a charge of theft by unlawful taking. He was accused of using the team's money for personal purchases.
Pennsylvania troopers believed that Deets was living at a home in East Dorset, Vt.
When Vermont police arrived at the residence Thursday, the 38-year-old Deets was arrested without incident and charged as a fugitive from justice.

Alberta high waist skirt by zelocoWatch
©2013-2016 zeloco
Finally! I've been working on this baby for far too long!
Custom made fabric (my drawing, my design etc). Available as high waist and simple waist skirts for now, but jsks coming up also.
Available in six different colorways at my etsy: www.etsy.com/shop/EatMeInkMe?r…
Also, add me on facebook to keep updated: www.facebook.com/eatmeinkme
More about the print:
"Print features mashup of the amazing Art Nouveau style buildings here in Riga, Latvia. We have been said to be the "capital" of Art Nouveu architecture in Europe thanks to our gorgeous buildings, found especially on Albert's street (hence the title of the print) and all over the city and it's suburbs. I wanted to share this proud notion by making a tribute to our architectural legacy.The print is a set of hand-drawn building facades, all based on several buildings, but if you'd look for them here, you'd find bits and pieces of each of the buildings scattered all over the city, but none just like these."
Such A lovely skirt
I love the design! how did you get it printed?
I love the design! how did you get it printed?
wow perfect!
eep it's so lovely
I'm still debating what color to get it in… I don't really wear Lolita anymore, but I would wear this because I remember you telling me about it in New York and it's so amazing to finally see it!
n_n I'm actually deliberating about making non-lolita versions for this print (for more local clients, there aren't that many lolis here..), - a more simple, shorter version for the simple waist version (probably without the chiffon ruffle and with the small lace on the bottom and with all-elastic waist rather than fabric one. And also a pencil-skirt version, but it's all still in the works
Well I'd probably get the loli version and wear it without a petticoat or something, my style a is much more 1960s bohemian sort of thing these days, or maybe the simpler version you mentioned might be good. I just love your designs but I don't seem to wear Lolita much anymore, it's sad. I still have all my Lolita stuff though cos I feel I might want to wear them again.
^_^ I love 60 boho chic style, my friend wear something a lot like that
Recently I realized that I don't wear much loli either.. It seems I don't put that much attention to what I wear (I must be getting old? ) But yeah, I have a hard time giving the pieces up, too. When you spend that much time, money and attention into that, I find it hard to mentally let go, I guess... But I still wear it whenever I have to "go out" and "dress up". Other than that I rarely leave home these days
BTW, how are your studies going? It must be finals time for you, no?
Impressive! Well done!

The Packers and Vikings are set to square off in the late game during Wildcard Saturday. And what comes with playing in the late game on Wildcard Saturday? Lots of drunken fans that have been drinking and tailgating outside the stadium essentially all day. In attempt to "keep fans in line" and ensuring drunken fans don't become even more drunken, Green Bay Packers management has decided to shut down alcohol sales upon the start of the second half of Sunday's Wildcard game against the Vikings. Which is earlier than the usual end of the third quarter cutoff. Management points to a convergence of circumstances for the moves: It's Saturday night, it's the playoffs and the Vikings are a North Division rival. "Night games previously have presented us with more challenges than normal with regard to inappropriate behavior," Lambeau security chief Doug Collins said in a statement announcing the intensified measures. "We are asking fans to enjoy the game responsibly and also help us out by re...

Nice one. Two important things about free speech (thanks Noam):
(1) Free speech is for speech you hate. If it is only for speech you are OK with it is not "free" at all.
(2) The best cure for "bad speech" is "more speech'.

Polity: House-buying patterns in Auckland,
I have read and attempted to reread Rob's post. Let us call it what it is: Racist.
It may well be true that "... ethnically Chinese house buyers tended to purchase flash houses....". So what?
The offensiveness in all of this is thinking that surnames are a valid way to judge residency or that ethnicity (race) matters. IMO Phil Twyford should go. Far far away.
Hard News: Talking to the United Nations…,
I am a bit tired of "Harm reduction". People do not take drugs because they are harmful. People do not use LSD because it is less harmful than alcohol (it is, according to David Nutt) they take LSD because it has benefits for them.
The same applies to all drug taking. There is some harm from drugs but it does not follow that drugs are harmful.
I can illustrate that with an analogy: Many people have broken the bones of their feet and lower legs by jumping or falling onto concrete. They suffer harm from concrete and car needs to be taken around concrete. But that does not make concrete harmful. Concrete is useful.
This is a human rights ssue. Not a legal issue and not a medical issue. It is as much a human rights issue as sexism, racism, homophobia, class predjudice....

Good work RB.
I am so tiered of the OTT reaction coming from all sorts of people who should know better.
It is ironic that it is Peter Dunn that is bringing sensible drug laws to NZ. If it does work out (and it is working well so far, despite the OTT BS from many who should know better) even Peter Dunn himself acknowledges that cannabis will go through this process.
Hard News: The digital switch-off, in reply to
Greens and unfortunately many of their utopian policies might just sink the economy before we taste nirvana.
What policies would that be?
Given the Greens are the only one of the three major parties to put online you can go and see which ones those are, and come back and tell me!
As a GP activist I am fed up to the back teeth of people making comments about our policies with out reading them! There is a word for that: Prejudice.
No. The "white people" thing was in response to a comment above, which I quoted. As you say, there were nutters fanning the flames on both sides.
Actually I said more. I said the state was one of the nutters.
No, not at all. Not even a little bit. The Ngati Apa decision did not say that the foreshore had always belonged to Maori. It said that hapu had the right to explore their customary rights through the court. It indicated that the test for something approaching freehold would be high.
But other people, who were in a good position to know, said that the test could be met for a lot of the shore line.
You have to understand that aboriginal rights to the fore shore and the sea bed are not extinguished by the land abutting it being alienated.
This is ancient law that, I think, dates back at least to the Norman conquest.
Worik, I'm not sure if you understand the issue.
I understand very well. I spent a lot of time huiing and listening to both sides during the passage of the Act.
One side was a bunch of rouges. The other was a mixed bag of some very on to it, some not. I know which side moved me. It was not the rouges.
If it was my family's land and had been in consistent use by my family since 1840, I'd be bloody delighted to have the opportunity to test my rights regarding that in court.
That is what was taken! You would have no rights and you could not "test" them, you would have to apply for them. Hardly a right! If your land was customary land that had never been placed in torrens title and got wet when the tide came in - poof! you lost it. No court. Just the chance to apply to the state for some rights that fall far far short of what common law would supply.
The right to engage in customary rights, prescribed by the state. No right to any activity, you have to ask, cap in hand, like Ngāti Porou did. And because Ngāti Porou are very good at negotiating with the state, they got a lot. But it is the largess of the government, not an entitlement recognised in court.
Can you not see the difference? Can you not see how demeaning it is?
On one hand some people can go to court to assert their rights (like you can if I want to build a road in your back yard), on the other hand some people have to apply for their what is no longer a right because it was taken away.
The FSA is restricted to the area between mean high spring tide and the Territorial limit. It also covers riverbeds and some lake-beds. Hardly valuable parcels of land. Unless they are of cultural significance.
Very very valuable *industrial* land. Mining, fish farming....
It's the "all your foreshore are belong to us" rhetoric that helped get
That was the rhetoric that got maori backs up Russel.
There were nutters on both sides, but it was the state saying "all your foreshore are belong to us". When the state takes on the role of a nutter we should all be worried.
Seriously. Can you not see anything wrong with arbitrarilly declaring the ownership of a huge amount of land, ignoring 900 years of common law?
And look at what you said about "get white folks' backs up, including mine". Do you not see that you are buying into a racist argument?
Dosen't that make you feel even a little uncomfortable?
You say you would prefer it to go through the courts. Think for a moment: What if it were your families land? How strong would your preference be then?
Note also the immediate lease of prospecting rights to the sea bed off the west coast of the North Island. That should give you a clue to the real reason the rights were extinguished...

It is very cold here in ND, so I wanted to get this fur collar to coordinate with my ear muffs, which I love. I have to say that the fur is not of the same long, silky quality as that on my ear muffs, so it is a bit of a disappointment. However, I opted to keep the collar because it is quite warm and fits within the collar of my coat. This is my second purchase from Fur Hat World, and the service is great.

Service and web site great - fur collar arrived to UK from States within a few days - v efficient. like the collar a lot but only criticism would be that it is not as thick or full as the ones in the pictures. I would be willing to pay a higher price for a fuller collar.

Credit And Debt Management: Credit Counseling
by Cathy Pareto
Credit counseling can be an appropriate solution for consumers who find themselves overwhelmed by their credit obligations and need help restructuring what they owe. While not all credit counseling agencies are created equal, the reputable agency's goal is to help consumers gain better control of their financial situations by providing education and debt-counseling services to consumers in need. Also, as mentioned in the previous section on debt collectors, credit counseling is required for debtors seeking chapter 13 bankruptcy protections.
Finding a Reputable Credit Counseling Firm
Unfortunately, the credit-counseling industry is unregulated. This lack of regulation has introduced the possibility that some so-called counseling or debt-settlement agencies are nothing more than profit-seekers preying on vulnerable, unsuspecting consumers. Many counseling agencies pose as nonprofits and get away with grossly overcharging clients for services, implementing monthly fees, conducting questionable or illegal business practices and doing little to negotiate with credit card companies to reduce their clients' rates and/or debt. In the last six years, the FTC has filed more than a dozen civil actions against such companies.
Anyone seeking credit counseling should do so with a reputable nonprofit organization. An excellent consumer resource for finding such an organization is the National Foundation for Credit Counseling (NFCC). NFCC is the national voice for its member agencies, which are nonprofit, mission-driven, community-based consumer counseling agencies that provide budget counseling and education, debt-management plans, counseling referral services, financial literacy courses and housing information.
Once you have narrowed down your list of potential agencies to work with, conduct some due diligence on them by confirming their statuses with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), your state's attorney general or a local consumer protection agency. Additionally, the FTC's website offers some excellent tips for choosing the right credit counseling organization. Trustworthy agencies will typically send you free information, including details of the services they provide. They need not ask you for any details about your financial situation. If you are required to provide specific financial details about yourself, pay any upfront consulting fees or retainers, or sign any paperwork before acquiring information about the firm, consider this a red flag and run away. (Learn more about how to find the help you need in How To Find A Credit Counselor, or how to do it yourself in Seven Tips For The Do-It-Yourself Debt Manager.)
What to Expect From Credit Counseling
A credit counseling agency helps the client identify his or her creditors and assess the debts due and the monthly payments they are committed to. It structures a plan for the debtor and then negotiates with creditors on behalf of its clients to reduce the consumer's interest rates, payments, debt amounts or some combination thereof. The goal of the credit counseling agency is to help you find a payment plan that you can afford (assuming the creditor approves of the arrangements) and target a specific payoff date to make you debt-free. These programs primarily service consumer-related debts, such as personal loans or credit cards; however, mortgages are not typically included.
The idea behind a debt-management plan is that while you can afford to make some type of monthly payment, you need help negotiating with your creditors on things like interest rates (they often reduce or eliminate interest altogether) or monthly payment amounts. This type of plan is voluntary. It is not a legal agreement between you and your creditors. It typically lasts for no more than five years, and it is expected that you will not apply for or use credit during the length of the program.
With this plan, you typically deposit a fixed payment each month with the credit counseling agency, and they in turn use this money to pay the creditors outlined in your program. This helps the agency centralize your cash flows and ensures your timely deposits and payments to your creditors. They pay the debts each month on your behalf, subject to whatever arrangements (ex. rate reduction, payment reduction, revised billing cycle) they have negotiated for you. For this service and for the negotiations made on your behalf with your creditors, the agency collects a nominal fee.
So, how will this affect your credit? If you are enrolled in a credit counseling program, it's likely that you already have a history of late payments and overutilization of credit that have already negatively impacted your credit score. While creditors will appreciate your efforts to enter a debt-management plan that demonstrates your desire to repay your debts, your credit score may nevertheless be affected. In fact, your participation in a credit counseling program may show up on your credit history. Creditors will likely hesitate to extend further credit to you, even after your counseling is completed, until they can see a couple of years of solid repayment history on your credit report.

So I've heard that most people think that most people believe babies should sleep exclusively on their backs becuause of suffocation...ok, understandable..
So what's the deal with all of this elaborate baby bedding? crib bumbers, blankets draped here and there...those things could suffocate the baby too. So, I take them off everytime I put the baby down? That seems silly...
I unerstand the idea of crib bumbers, but are they safe? It seems like a lot of real life pictures I see of newborns are just in the crib with no blankets, or swadled.
what do you all think about this?

09 May 2014
A RESHUFFLE of some of KPMG's most senior posts has seen new counsels appointed to work alongside chairman and senior partner Simon Collins.
Joe Gallacher and Melanie Richards have been appointed vice-chairs on KPMG's UK board, and will support Collins with the firm's governance.
Further reading
Dr Ashley Steel, vice-chair and global head of transport, will retire in the summer. Dr Steel has been one of the firm's most recognisable faces, having stood up for diversity in the City and having sat on KPMG's board for several years. She has previously been named as one of the UK's most influential gay people. "I would also like to take the opportunity to thank Dr Ashley Steel for her huge contribution to KPMG and the business world more broadly," said Collins.
Richards currently sits on the KPMG board as a non-executive director, a role she has held since 2012. She took part in the Accountancy Age Debate on female board quotas last year. Gallacher currently serves on KPMG's UK board as head of sectors, but this role will be taken by new appointee Richard Gostling, who joins from Goldman Sachs.
As head of sectors, Gostling will serve on KPMG's executive management team.
"The appointment of Joe Gallagher and Melanie Richards as vice-chairs is...an important step forward as we seek to evolve our leadership model, ensuring we are the most relevant to our clients and striving for the highest standards of governance and responsibility," said Collins.
"Melanie and Joe will represent the firm at the highest level with clients and other key stakeholders.
"Richard completed his accountancy training at KPMG back in 1992 and has since been a trusted adviser to many UK businesses; we are delighted to welcome him back."

I was a counter manager for Estee Lauder and Double Wear was my favorite foundation. However, this makeup has really impressed me. It is not drying and does not accentuate wrinkles. I cannot justify paying the $33.00 for Double Wear after trying this foundation ($6.00 at Wal-Mart)! This is long lasting, covers my age spots and feels good on the skin. This is now my HG foundation! I highly recommend!

This beats Revlon ColorStay in my eyes!
I`m #103 True Ivory in this (#100 Ivory is like the same color), its actually CHEAP && Amazing!
I may only be using this only for the summer because I`m tanned right now and it matches perfectly! I am pale skinned (NC15 In Mac SFF)
This is the best foundation so far!

Out of all the foundations I've tried lately I loved the finish and texture of this the best. It covered my pores well, looked natural, and was a nice color. I still noticed it was a bit shiny but it lasted my endless blottings and powdering without looking cakey so I stuck it out. But I think this has made me break out. After wearing it every day for a week I got a couple big pimples (that I rarely get) and my skin got little bumps and whiteheads here and there. I may keep this for special occasions but not everyday use. The search continues......

After reading decent reviews on this product i went ahead and tried it. I was very disappointed with the lack of color selection. I have very fair skin and the lightest shade was way too dark for my skin tone. Had it been a better match I wouldn't complain about anything else.
Age: 30-35

Great Product!! Great coverage, not orangy looking. I bought this in nude and it is looks perfect. It stays on most of the day, and does not get greasy or fade or cause breakouts. It is much better then Revelon's 18hr or similar which looks like a mask. Try this and for the price!!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other

I read the good reviews for this product and had high hopes, although I was very disappointed solely because of Rimmel's color selection. I bought this in Ivory 100 and it was extremely dark for me and I do not always wear the lightest shade in some brands, e.g. in Revlon Colorstay I can wear Buff 150. So even though the staying power and coverage of this foundation may be phenomenal, I will only give this product two lippies because their color section is not very generous for ladies like me who have fair skin.

I do Youtube videos on makeup and makeup application and I normally use Revlon Colorstay but since it is such a long lasting foundation and sometimes I just put on makeup to do my videos I wanted to find a cheaper alternative that would do the trick for making videos but was easy to remove. Colorstay is a hassle to remove and is more expensive. In my search I happened upon this, thanks to emilynoel83( I think that is her name, I dunno the screenname but I LOVE her) of Youtube. This foundation's lightest color matches me perfectly and is very easy to remove. This would be a fantastic everyday foundation except for the fact that it wears off super quickly.
I recently took a trip to West Virginia from my hometown in KY,(about a 4 hour trip) to see my niece ( in 90 degree weather I might add) and I decided to wear this instead of my colorstay just to see how it held up. It wore off within an hour and a half. Where as Revlon Colorstay would have lasted all day. But for a short time or days inside with air conditioning this would be great! Very good foundation, some shades are orange-ish so be wary of that, great coverage ( I used no concealer), great packaging, only downside is the lasting power. Other than that A+!

One of my favourite foundations and i love mainly because it is sooo cheap!! Rimmel is a brilliant drug store brand that i feel delievers over and over again. This foundation i feel covers redness extremly well and it has a wide variety of shades which i feel match every skin tone. The only problem i have is that it does take a good while to dry, and in the mornings i dont always have time to wait until i dries, so i have to apply a powder, but i still feel it is worth it for the price and coverage.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
I am having trouble staying matte with this foundation, now that I'm half way done with the bottle. Not sure if it's my skin or the foundation. Either way, I'm just not loving this as much anymore. It is starting to look cakey when you really look at the skin along my cheeks and chin. It was great while it lasted.
This is a foundation that I have found that actually matches my skin perfectly and does not oxidize on me! The coverage is exceptional, not full coverage, but more than medium. It's also easy to sheer out for a light coverage foundation also. I use a little more than two pea size drops for my whole face. I suffer from acne and have plenty of acne scars from past acne. It covers the majority of the lighter ones beautifully. I still need concealer for the dark purple acne scars though. This foundation took some working with in order for me to learn how I like to use it. My skin is very very oily and at first, I would start to shine within 10 minutes of putting this foundation on. I now put a thin layer of milk of magnesia on my face before applying this foundation and this keeps me matte for the majority of the day. I am very acne prone and don't have any adverse reactions to this foundation. The only negative part of this foundation is the dismal range of colors that it's available in. I'm normally a NC20-25 and I use the lightest shade of 100 Ivory. If you can find an exact match, or mix shades to match, this foundation is absolutely wonderful for most skin types. You may have to adjust what you use underneath the foundation, but once you learn that, it truly is a great foundation. It's available at your local drugstores, Ultas, etc... for around $7.
