NUI Galway Study Shows Salmonella Biofilms Resistant to Powerful Disinfectants
Friday, 17 January 2014
Research by Dr Mary Corcoran was prompted by 2012 European Salmonella Agona outbreak resulted in over 160 cases of gastroenteritis in 10 countries. An NUI Galway researcher has discovered that once Salmonella gets into a food processing facility it is very difficult to remove it. Microbiologist Dr Mary Corcoran attempted to kill Salmonella biofilms on a variety of hard surfaces, using three types of disinfectant. The research, to be published in the Journal of Applied and Environmental Microbiology, shows that once Salmonella has established itself for seven days, it was not possible to kill Salmonella using three disinfectants, even by soaking the Salmonella in disinfectant for an hour and a half. The research found that all of the types of Salmonella studied were able to adopt the specialised biofilm lifestyle on all of the surfaces looked at. These included glass, stainless steel, glazed tile, concrete and plastic. It shows that the biofilm of Salmonella gets more dense over time, and becomes more firmly attached to the surface. The findings will serve as a warning to food processors in particular highlighting that once Salmonella gets into a food processing facility and has an opportunity to form a biofilm on surfaces, it is likely to be extraordinarily difficult, if not impossible, to kill it. Dr Mary Corcoran said "Food processing facilities must take strict care to keep Salmonella out of the clean areas where cooked foods get further processing and packaged, and ask whether disinfectants that are promoted as killing various types of bacteria are really as effective as claimed." The research was prompted by the Salmonella outbreak in Europe in which over 160 people in 10 countries developed gastroenteritis from the Salmonella Agona strain of Salmonella. That outbreak was traced to meat from a major food-processing facility. Dr Corcoran said "it seems that the outbreak entered into the environment in the part of the facility where meat that was already cooked was being handled, and it had survived and contaminated the cooked meat. Interested in finding out that Salmonella might have something special about it that makes it better at surviving in the environment of a food processing facility, we asked was it better at forming a dense biofilm, or was it more resistant to disinfectants than other Salmonella? We discovered it was not." The three disinfectants used against Salmonella in the research were sodium hypochlorite (household bleach), sodium hydroxide, and benzalkonium chloride. The research shows that a lot of the time, the disinfectant may add very little, if anything, to good cleaning and appropriate food handling practices and that there is a need for more research to define better methods for killing Salmonella biofilm." -ENDS-

NUI Galway-IITA-Irish Aid research collaboration helps develop vitamin-A rich maize to combat micronutrient malnutrition
Monday, 20 January 2014
Up to 500,000 children in developing countries go blind each year due to Vitamin A deficiency The NUI Galway Plant and AgriBiosciences Research Centre (PABC) has been closely working with the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) on the development of more nutritious and higher yielding crops for smallholder farmers in Africa since 2009. The NUI Galway – IITA research has now been published in the international scientific journal BMC Plant Biology. Vitamin A deficiency in the diets of the poor is currently a global health problem affecting millions of people in Africa and other regions of the world. Vitamin A deficiency retards growth, increases risk of disease, and can cause reproductive disorders. IITA, Irish Aid and NUI Galway are engaged with the international Harvest Plus initiative of the CGIAR and national agricultural research systems to develop and disseminate new varieties of staple crops (e.g. maize, sweet potato, beans) that contain higher levels of essential micronutrients such as vitamin A, iron and zinc. Up to 500,000 children in developing countries go blind each year due to vitamin A deficiency, with over half of these children dying within a year of becoming blind. For instance, in Malawi 73% of children currently do not have enough Vitamin A in their diets. The high prevalence of vitamin A deficiency amongst mothers and children (particularly during the first 1000 days of life) perpetuates cycles of poverty. A key aim is develop even more improved maize varieties which have sufficiently high levels of vitamin A to impact on human health and which are high yielding under African growing conditions. Working closely with Prof. Charles Spillane (NUI Galway) and Dr. Abebe Menkir (IITA), a PhD student and maize breeder Girum Azmach has been conducting research between NUI Galway and IITA on development of vitamin A rich maize varieties for African smallholder farmers and growing conditions. Working within IITA's maize breeding program, Girum has identified combinations of naturally-occurring genes in maize lines that result in major increases of the level of vitamin A in the types of maize varieties that are grown by farmers and consumed by poorer households in Sub-Saharan Africa. Girum has been able to screen and identify maize lines within the IITA breeding program that recorded as high as 17 microgram per each gram of a dry maize kernel. This concentration of provitamin A is much higher than that of commonly grown maize cultivars, which is mostly less than 2 micrograms per each gram of dry maize kernel. This means that IITA and other maize breeding programs in Africa now have access to lines that have levels of provitamin A that are necessary for biofortified maize varieties to reduce the levels of vitamin A deficiency amongst the poor in Sub Saharan Africa. The identification of these gene combinations and high vitamin A maize lines now allows IITA and national research programs to better develop vitamin A biofortified tropical maize varieties adapted to growing conditions and consumer preferences in Africa. IITA in collaboration with national partners in Nigeria has released the first generation of two pro-vitamin A rich hybrids and two open-pollinated varieties. An open-pollinated variety with intermediate level of pro-vitamin A was also released in Ghana in 2012. Seeds of the released pro-vitamin A rich open-pollinated maize varieties have been sent to Liberia, Mali, and Sierra Leone for testing, multiplication and deployment with the support from HarvestPlus and AGRA. The high vitamin A lines identified by Girum will be provided to national breeding programs in countries such as Ethiopia, Uganda, Sierra Leone and Liberia for use to develop their own vitamin A rich varieties for smallholder farmers and the rural poor. Overall, the development of staple crops with improved micronutrient composition and content for African smallholders is set to contribute to both improving smallholder agriculture and prevention of maternal and child undernutrition in Africa. -ends-

New Druid Academy to train future theatre-makers at NUI Galway
Wednesday, 22 January 2014
In a unique development for Drama and Theatre teaching in Ireland, Druid Theatre Company and NUI Galway today launched a new Druid Academy, as part of a 10 year partnership between the two organisations. Part of the Centre for Theatre and Performance at NUI Galway, the Druid Academy covers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in Drama, Theatre Studies and Performing Arts, as well as PhD research opportunities. The Druid Academy will provide training in drama that meets best international practice while also embedding the values associated with Druid Theatre into the teaching curriculum. Borne out of a vision of Galway as a location for the creation of excellent theatre, teaching in the Druid Academy will follow the Druid approach, focusing on ensemble as a mode of performance, rigorous critical analysis of theatre, by both practitioners and audiences, and an awareness of the importance of audience, in a variety of locations: locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. Speaking at the launch of the Druid Academy, Professor Patrick Lonergan, Head of Drama and Theatre Studies at NUI Galway, said: "The Druid Academy allows us to bring the best of the University together with the best of the Irish theatre world. Druid have for many years showed that Galway can be a wonderful place to create theatre – and that it can be an ideal base to bring new Irish drama to audiences all over the world. By working with Druid, we will be able to foster new generations of theatre-makers and playwrights, who will change the way we produce drama in Galway, Ireland, and the world". Led by Tony Award-winning Director, Dr Garry Hynes, Druid staff will work alongside NUI Galway's Drama and Theatre scholars to provide world-class training in directing, design, playwriting, and many other areas of theatre studies. In a partnership that will see close integration between Druid staff and NUI Galway Drama scholars, Dr Garry Hynes takes up the role of Adjunct Professor at NUI Galway, with Drama students benefitting from regular workshops and master classes with the renowned Theatre Director. The Druid Academy will also feature other Druid staff including the Druid Director-in-Residence, Thomas Conway. Thomas, a practising professional director and dramaturge, will have particular responsibility for developing the performance elements of the Druid Academy. The Druid Director-in-Residence will play a key role in building relationships between Druid staff and NUI Galway Drama and theatre students and in developing the practice and performance aspects of the Drama curriculum. The Academy will also lead to the development of new courses, including three new MA programmes. These are in Irish Drama, Writing for Theatre, and Theatre Practice and Production. NUI Galway also offers a part-time MA in Drama and Theatre Studies, and has two very popular undergraduate Drama programmes. Students of the Druid Academy will gain a unique insight into the world of professional theatre when they get the opportunity to stage an annual professional-standard production, directed by the Druid Director-in-Residence. Artistic Director of Druid, Dr Garry Hynes, said: "This is a very significant relationship not just for Druid but for Irish Theatre generally. I am really looking forward to working with my colleagues both in Druid and NUI Galway in seeing this relationship flourish". The relationship between NUI Galway and Druid is a long and fruitful one. The company was founded on campus in 1975 by graduates Marie Mullen, Garry Hynes and the late Mick Lally. Through the years the two organisations have collaborated at various times including notably the housing of the Druid archive at the James Hardiman Library at NUI Galway and the establishment of a playwriting award in memory of the late Jerome Hynes who was General Manager of Druid at a formative stage in the company's development. The three founders, as well as being graduates, have all been awarded Honorary Degrees by the University. Three years ago that relationship was formalised into a strategic partnership that saw Druid and NUI Galway join forces to train the next generation of theatre-makers. Today that partnership moves on to a new level with the announcement of the Druid Academy. Commenting at the launch, President of NUI Galway, Dr Jim Browne, said: "The development of Drama and Theatre Studies represents a natural fit for NUI Galway given the vibrant theatre world in Galway. Our Drama and Theatre offering has gone from strength to strength thanks to a unique collaboration with world-class theatre-makers like Druid. The Druid Academy represents the culmination of a long and fruitful partnership between Druid and NUI Galway and provides our students with unique access to some of Ireland's leading theatre-makers".

New Book Explores the Evolution and Behaviour of Economies
Wednesday, 22 January 2014
The Whitaker Institute at NUI Galway will launch a new book, Econophysics and Physical Economics, on Thursday, 23 January at 2pm in the Cairnes Building on campus. The event will include a special talk with the authors, Professors Peter Richmond, Stefan Hutzler and Jurgen Mimkes. An understanding of the behaviour of financial assets and the evolution of economies has never been as important as today and Econophysics and Physical Economics looks at these complex systems from the perspective of the physicist. So called 'econophysics' and its application to finance has made great strides in recent years. For more than a decade, physicists have used the methods and tools based on statistical physics to analyse the complexities of not just natural systems but also financial and economic systems. The research was also stimulated by the ready availability of large data sets in the realm of financial markets. As a result new insights into the nature of financial market fluctuations and other inherent complex dynamics associated with the financial markets were being discovered. This stimulating research program has in turn led to novel approaches to economic theory informed by empirical observations and physical ideas, and continues to articulate an alternative framework for analysing economic systems. Authors Professors Peter Richmond and Stefan Hutzler of Trinity College Dublin and Professor Jurgen Mimkes, retired Professor of Physics at the University of Paderborn, Germany highlight and discuss these novel approaches in the new book, published by Oxford University Press. According to Dr Srinivas Raghavendra of the JE Cairnes School of Business and Economics and the Whitaker Institute, "The ongoing economic crisis has severely challenged the current dominant economic model that informs policy. I think a serious attempt to go beyond the established conventional framework has become an urgent necessity of our times. In this respect, Econophysics offers one such alternative framework to think outside the conventional mode and it would be to our benefit that we engage with it and critically examine what it offers."

The Galway Platform on Human Rights in Irish Foreign Policy, facilitated by NUI Galway's Irish Centre for Human Rights
Friday, 24 January 2014
The Irish Centre for Human Rights at NUI Galway has brought together 23 of Ireland's leading human rights groups to adopt a common vision for human rights in Irish Foreign Policy. The Galway Platform on Human Rights in Irish Foreign Policy sets out the basic human rights standards and practices by which Ireland should be held to account in its dealings with other countries, as well as in its activities at EU and UN levels. The Galway Platform contains 47 specific observations and proposals to government in the context of the current consultation on a review of Irish Foreign Policy being undertaken by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. These are realistic and measured recommendations intended to ensure that Ireland holds true to the human rights commitments that it has freely entered into. The protection of human rights is integral to Ireland's foreign policy and Ireland now has the opportunity to significantly enhance its capacity to promote and protect human rights worldwide as well as at home. The recommendations also emphasise the need for human rights to be mainstreamed across every aspect of foreign policy. For instance, the Galway Platform states that, "it would be unacceptable for the State to undertake any action that is inconsistent with the human rights standards by which it is held to account." Professor Michael O'Flaherty, Director of the Irish Centre for Human Rights at NUI Galway said, "We are delighted that so many important human rights groups were able to come to Galway and agree on this wide-ranging road map for human rights in Irish Foreign Policy. Although the government is already getting a lot right when it comes to the promotion of human rights internationally, no one would dispute that it can do so much more. The Irish Centre for Human Rights and the other signatories are putting the Galway Platform recommendations to government so that Ireland can be an international champion of human rights to make us proud." The Galway Platform has been signed by: Amnesty International Ireland, Centre for Criminal Justice and Human Rights at University College Cork, Centre for Disability Law & Policy at National University of Ireland, Galway, Children's Rights Alliance, Community Workers' Co-operative, Department of Applied Social Studies, National University of Ireland, Maynooth, Free Legal Advice Centres (FLAC), Front Line Defenders, Gay & Lesbian Equality Network, Irish Centre for Human Rights, NUI Galway, Irish Council for Civil Liberties, Irish Congress of Trade Unions, Irish Penal Reform Trust, Irish Refugee Council, Liberia Solidarity Group, National Assembly of the Baha'is of Ireland, National Women's Council of Ireland, Northern Ireland Human Rights Consortium, Pavee Point, Social Justice Ireland, Trocaire, University College Dublin, Human Rights Network and Women's Human Rights Alliance. -ends-

In the war against HIV, the deadly virus that causes AIDS, we are fast approaching Appomattox. Only this time, it isn't the rebels waving the white flag, it's the federal government; and this time the surrender won't be sealed with a signature in a courthouse, it will be sealed with a federally funded 20-minute HIV test administered in a sex club or bathhouse.
"Since the early 1990s, an estimated 40,000 new HIV infections have occurred annually in the United States," the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported this April in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).
The high incidence of infection has persisted despite massive increases in federal spending to fight the virus. The Kaiser Family Foundation reports that federal spending on HIV/AIDS increased from $3.1 billion (in non-inflation adjusted dollars) in 1990 to $14.7 billion in 2002. (President Bush has requested $16 billion for domestic HIV/AIDS spending next year, and $2 billion more to fight HIV/AIDS abroad.)
Between 1995 and 2002 -- while 40,000 Americans were infected annually -- federal spending targeted specifically at preventing HIV infection jumped 45 percent, from $639 million to $925 million.
Increased spending did not decrease infections. Clearly, federal HIV-prevention efforts are failing and must be re-examined.
While U.S. policy has inspired better technologies in response to HIV, it has not inspired better behavior. Self-destructive activity has achieved a strategic balance with medical science. Despite new drugs, says the MMWR, "The annual number of incident AIDS cases and deaths have remained stable since 1998, at approximately 40,000 and 16,000 respectively."
This has become a war of attrition. Barring a fundamental change in tactics, the casualty count will mount.
But the government's latest response not only recapitulates the failed approach of the past, it reduces it to the absurd.
America has developed another miracle technology: a rapid HIV test called OraQuick. In 20 minutes it can determine if HIV antibodies are present in a pinprick of blood. In January, the Food and Drug Administration issued a special waiver allowing the test to be used in what it discreetly called "outreach settings."
In June, the CDC announced it would purchase 250,000 test kits for $2 million and distribute them to local health organizations. News reports indicated the tests could be used in bathhouses and sex clubs. Indeed, CDC guidelines seemed to say the owners of such places would become "key partners" in the program.

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Mikouan
by qrsqrt
Review: My wife and I are not adventurous. We are spoiled on chain restaurants and large table service establishments. When we were evaluating our options for Kyoto and saw Mikoan near the top of the list we wanted to try it, but had to spend about half an hour to muster the courage to walk down some random alley and into what others have described as a woman's home. Having just returned from Mikoan I will tell you this: do not be timid, do not back out when you see the alley entrance. Open that door, let them pull out a stool for you at the bar and have one of the best vegan meals in Japan for an incredibly low price. At only 1000 yen the dinner set is a mixture of random, assorted delicious dishes. The owner/chef seems to cook up whatever she is in the mood to make, and all of it is amazing. On top of that she is very friendly, the whole atmosphere is welcoming, and there were other guests when we arrived including a cool couple from the UK and two businessmen from China. The older woman previously described who may be the chef's mother was also at the bar chatting up her friend, who had a tiny cat nestled up to her. This may or may not have been Hana (no sign of Toro, unfortunately). So don't worry about feeling uncomfortable. Turn south from Shijo dori onto Teramachi dori, walk past the AM/PM, look for the red awning and the tiny doorway and head down that alley. You won't regret giving it a try.

Senate approves bill to arm teachers and administrators
The Arizona Senate approved a bill Monday that could arm teachers and administrators in rural schools.
The bill passed the Senate on a 17-11 party line vote, and now moves to the House. If approved by both chambers, the measure would allow certain school employees to carry concealed firearms in schools with fewer than 600 students that are more than 30 minutes and 20 miles from the nearest law enforcement agency.

Technology co-op program accredited by national council
In a survey earlier this year, 64 percent of the respondent graduates of BGSU's College of Technology said their cooperative education experience at Bowling Green helped them find their current, or a previous, job.
And more than 90 percent of the technology alumni credited the co-op program with improving their problem-solving and interpersonal skills and aiding development of professional work habits.
But graduates aren't the only ones affirming the value of the program these days. It has also received the seal of approval of the Accreditation Council for Cooperative Education (ACCE), "the only national accrediting body for cooperative education in the country," according to Thomas Siebenaler, assistant director of the BGSU program.
The council granted full accreditation, through December 2007, following a process that included submission of a self-study by the program last spring and a site visit by a three-member ACCE team in July.
In its report, the accreditation team praised the "conscientious and thorough" co-op staff, "significant" faculty involvement and "strong support" for the program throughout the College of Technology.
Program Director Barry Piersol said the staff had thought BGSU offered a good match with the council's criteria for accreditation, which he called "a nice little feather in your cap."
The co-op program is mandatory, and credit bearing, for all technology majors, who must have three full-time, semester-long experiences as part of their degree requirements. "It's fully integrated with the coursework," Piersol noted, and the experiences are alternated with semesters in classes. That way, students can share, and apply, what they've learned with peers and professors.
"It makes learning and retaining the information so much easier," said Siebenaler, adding that the last semester before graduation is spent on campus.
"The unique imprint of College of Technology majors is they graduate with the equivalent of a year of industrial experience," Piersol pointed out.
More than 13,000 alumni have done so since the program's inception in 1968, when "we were the founding co-op program on campus," he said. This year, the number of students placed in positions worldwide reached 734, and their combined wages exceeded $3.7 million.
Last summer alone, technology co-op students worked in 27 states and five countries. "We encourage them to broaden their horizons," Siebenaler said. "They're thinking outside the box."
Because they have already looked for three full-time jobs while in college, the students will know what one is like when they enter the workforce, he said. And through their co-op experiences, they can build a network of contacts as well.
Piersol described the program as an integral part of the College of Technology, whose academic program is also accredited, by the National Association of Industrial Technology.
Gathering information for the ACCE accreditation process was "a bonding experience" for faculty and staff in the college, and the positive result serves "to convince others that we have been reviewed by an outside group," he said. "Someone else is looking at it (the program) and agrees with it."
"It's validation," added Siebenaler, that the college is on the industry forefront.

Bulletin Blue Ribbon Book WINNER
NCSS/CBC Notable Children's Trade Books in the Field of Social Studies WINNER
Sydney Taylor Book Award, Association of Jewish Libraries HONOR
Starred Review, Publishers Weekly:
"Sensitively written and beautifully illustrated."
Review, Kirkus Reviews:
"The handsome design features decoratively framed text boxes opposite Gustavson' s expressive, realistic oil paintings. Should spark discussion around the seder table and in classrooms of history."
Review, Book Review Digest:
"The book offers any number of promising uses: it's a fascinating Civil War story with a difference, it's an American counterpart to the World War I Christmas in the trenches story, and it's a rich tale of people finding connections through faith in a difficult time. Weber provides a glossary before the story and concludes with a compact, personal explanation of the festival of Passover, so even those unfamiliar with the holiday will have no difficulty in understanding its import in the story."
Review, Social Edication, June 1, 2010:
"…an engaging discussion about freedom as Jewish traditions are celebrated."

Really looking forward to this on 3.41.
Really looking forward to this on 3.41.
Actually downloading the files. As soon they are downloaded i wil mod them and put it online. Maybe today.
http://www.ps4news.com/forums/ps3-ha...ve-114271.html Maybe you could take the code from this that mounts dev_hdd0 to dev_usb001 and also modify it to mount dev_flash to dev_usb002.The source code for the open manager that mounts dev_usb as dev_hdd0 is available.
You could release your own firm loader,with source, also be cool if there was a reboot/reload feature so we could swap a firmware file (using ftp or filemanager) and reboot to see the changes instantly .
The reason I say use 2 USB devices is for extra speed when accessing both at once , of course devices could be mounted to seperate folders on 1 USB stick, dev_flash2 could be mounted on same stick as dev_flash just so that we would not need to modify our actual xregistry.
Can you explain in more detail what we need to do to the registry? Just change the flags on the debug options? Which debug options do we need to change, and to what values do we need to change those flags?
CFWprophet: Just got around to testing this and I cant get firmloader 0.3 to run on my 3.15 console at all,just get returned to xmb but dev_flash is not running from usb, its all still the same as before reboot, and no activity light on usb stick, has anyone else got it running on 3.15 with a PIC device?
it may be because im using wrong payload for my PSgroopic device, I lent my minimus to someone so cant us ethis for now. what features are needed in payload for firmloader to work, peek and poke only?
Same here. I am using Kakaroto's PL3 payload on my AT90USB162 board. I cannot get USB Firm Loader working with my 3.15 system.
P.S really lookin forward to your 3.41 release , might try a few of your hacks on 3.41 myself while im waiting!
Are you using the dev PL3 payload as it has peek and poke still available? he removed them from standard payload and I have a feeling this is what firmloader0.3 uses.
I'm using a PIC device at the moment on this PS3 and as there is no hermes payloads for 3.15 im stuck using KaKaRaToS 3.15 payload for my PIC that has no peek and poke, (can not find anyone uploading his 3.15 dev payloads for PICS?) so im stuck like yourself.
It's a shame but without support for firmloader0.3 this hackpack is not going to run, has anyone got this running on 3.15 as there has not been much feedback considering the fact that if this works it enables debug options which would be massive news?!
Please release 3.41 version soon, Thanks CFWprophet
I don't have a 3.15 system, but as I understand it, you do need peek+poke support to run USB Firm Loader. Given the way peek+poke works, I'd say you more than likely would need a USB Firm Loader specific to 3.15 systems in order to patch the right offsets.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Yum! I just love this syrup with a stack of hot Pamela's pancakes on a chilly morning.

A gluten-free donut? This, I had to try! The owner of my local natural foods store swears by them, so I decided to take the plunge. I was hoping they would be pretty good since I shelled out $7.49 for a package of 6.

These are the gluten-free version of a sugar-free Nutri-Grain bar, in my opinion. The brownish "cereal" exterior is chewy, and I can't place what they flavor is supposed to be.

Publisher's Description
A Bible for Today's Catholic Family
There is a growing desire among Catholics to read the Bible and to find inspiration and wisdom for their daily lives. Yet there is no Bible that brings Catholic families and the Bible together. Developed in partnership with the Center for Ministry Development and Our Sunday Visitor, recognized leaders in Catholic youth and family ministry, The Catholic Faith and Family Bible is designed to make the Bible easier to read and understand for the everyday Catholic family, helping parents and children grow in faith together. This message is brought to life through more than a thousand notes and articles such as:

vaginismo is the impossibility to realize sexual Act, due to involuntary contraction of Muscles of the third inferior of Vagina . In some cases, Women who suffer vaginismo can enjoy sexual games, and even reach Orgasmo whenever does not take place Sex .
The majority of the causes of the vaginismo is psychological. The lack of sexual or lacking information of communication, that leads to Fear or fear; traumatic experiences, Violation, sexual abuses, fear to Pregnancy, fear to contract diseases of sexual transmission, etc.
The classified vaginismo this in:
primary Vaginismo: Ocurre when a woman never has been able to have sexual relations or to obtain any type of penetration. It is commonly open pie in the adolescents and women in his veintes, because she is when in the western world the woman tries the use of stamps, to have sexual relations or when one goes to the doctor to practice Test of Papanicolaou . A woman can have vaginismo and not realize of she has which it until the moment at which she tries to have a vaginal penetration. Probably she can think that the penetration must naturally of being simple or it ignores perhaps it due to his condition.
Some of the reasons can cause that it are:
secondary Vaginismo: Ocurre when a woman who previously has been able to obtain the vaginal penetration normally, feels suddenly incapable of it. This can be by physical causes like vaginal infections or trauma during Childbirth, or by psychological causes. The treatment for this type is the same that stops the primary one, nevertheless, in these cases, previously the fact that it has been able to obtain satisfactorily a penetration can be very useful to solve the affection more quickly.
This affection does not get worse necessarily for want of treatment, unless the woman continues trying the penetration in spite of the pain. Some women prefer to abstain actually from sex before to look for treatment to solve the problem.
Although few controlled tests have been carried out, many scientific studies prove the effectiveness of the treatment for the vaginismo. In all the cases where the systematic insensibilización has been used, also well-known like expansion, the rate of success is even considered between the 90-95% and the 100%.
He is recommendable that the vaginismo treats so much physical as emotionally, since it is a fissium-psychological disease.
According to the qualitative studies of Ward and Ogden on the vaginismo (1994), the three main causes are:
Many people - some professionals are not even found out the emotional difficulties that they can be associate to a woman with vaginismo, between which are the low self-esteem, fears and depression. It is important to treat these aspects.
As far as the physical treatment for the muscular spasms exercises can be included "sensate focus", exploration of the vagina through tact and the desensitization with vaginal dilatadores. The expansion consists of inserting objects, generally of fálica form in the vagina with the aid of artificial lubricants, the used objects are increasing gradually of so large conforms the woman progresses, in some cases, the physical therapist will advise to take medecines to control the muscular anxiety or relajantes. The medical vaginal dilatadores can be obtained by Internet, although they can be expensive.
The woman can choose the car treatment in house or look for the aid of (a a) therapist.

Spider LungsThere are spider webs in my lungs.Spider Lungs by Azzuen-B
They contract and dilate
Rip and tear
with each grasping attempt to respire
as I choke on lies
and strawberry aftershave.
Blue lippedYour lips are blue and blackBlue lipped by Azzuen-B
Darkling with bloody cracks,
In a thin line, chewed and freezing.
Locks of fire hang down and dance
As we shuffle our way up the frosted ladder
Into the warm caress of a velvet sky,
and a roasted flue on the rooftop.
Wiping the red spiderweb off arched cheekbones,
with the cuff of a soft leather jacket.
You've been fighting again-
You're never hurt when you're running.
Pinking our hands over the edges of the flue,
and the red tears are almost all gone.
There will be more. I know.
But right now I don't care.
Right now I love the sweet tang of your blood on my tongue,
my teeth.
The scrape of your split skin on my cheek, my neck.
My shoulders and nose.
I am a star on this roof.
On this run down hot roof in the sky.

By Bach26 Reviews
Expiration Date:?Aug 2019
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:?0.17 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
Mimulus is helping me with the challenges of watching my young turn into adults. I seem to stay calm as they tell me what has been going on rather than jump the gun to try and keep them same my way. I seem to be able to talk with them rather than to them about my concerns for their well being.
So far, I think this stuff has helped my puppy a little bit. She is very timid towards the men in our house and runs to hide a lot. She's not so bad anymore, but I need to use it longer to get the full effect I think. I've seen a difference in her which is really awesome.

OTTAWA - Are North American governments secretly conspiring to build a "NAFTA superhighway," four football fields wide, from Mexico to Canada, to bypass regulatory controls and whisk goods swiftly to market?
If you believe some right-wing websites in the United States, it's all but a fait accompli. They insist a gargantuan project is in the works that will carve a 365-metre-wide swath through the continent's heart, with 10 traffic lanes, rail lines for freight and passenger trains, fibre-optic cable lines and pipelines carrying oil, gas and water.

GLASGOW needs a range of measures to help reduce congestion and keep the city's traffic flowing.
The City Car Club expanding to provide more cars in the city and west end will help do that and allow people access to a car without all the expense of running their own.
Where possible, especially for trips into the city centre and at the busy Christmas time, public transport is the best and most environmentally friendly method of transport.
Planing ahead and using bus, train or Subway will get you into town from most parts of Glasgow and park and ride offers an alternative for people in more remote areas who have a car.
The car club has been successful so far allowing it to expand and for every car they have it takes 20 private cars of the road, so is obviously good for the environment.
Hundreds of people have signed up for the car club and more members would mean more cars, able to be shared by more people and more convenient locations added to the pick up and drop off points.
On its own it doesn't solve Glasgow's congestion problems, but it is a step forward and offers a real solution which is beneficial to individual driver and the city's environment.

VLC Player makes its way to the iPad
If you own a Mac—nay, if you own a computer—and watch a lot of downloadable video content, there's a good chance you've given VLC Media Player a try. Media-junkie iPad owners can now rejoice, as the free, no-frills media player renowned for its ability to play just about any type of video codec in existence has finally made its way to the iPad.
VLC, created by non-profit organization VideoLAN, is an open-source, cross-platform multimedia player and framework that plays most multimedia files and various streaming protocols, including Flash. Along with supporting nearly every codec out there, VLC can also play back damaged media files.
Despite its power and versatility, VLC is remarkably simple to use, boasting a minimalist interface with its more complex options hidden deep in its menu system.
Assuming this multifaceted media player works as well on the iPad as it does on Mac OS X, iPad users should be in for a real treat.
VLC Media Player for iPad is free and runs on iOS 3.2 or later.
