Naturally sweetened and with no added sugar, Iskream is the first ice cream available on the market made with Stevia®, a natural sweetener that comes from the leaves of the stevia plant. You can feel confident serving your family an outrageously delicious treat that's full of flavor and free of aspartame, sucralose, artificial colorings, high fructose corn syrup and preservatives. Let's all skream for Iskream!
Stevia is a natural, zero calorie sweetener made from the leaves of the stevia plant. It's the perfect ingredient for shaking away added sugar without sacrificing flavor or sweetness. In fact, stevia is up to 300 times sweeter than sugar! It's a safe sugar alternative for the entire family.
Sugar alcohols are reduced calorie sweeteners used in many sugar free and reduced-calorie foods. They also occur naturally in fruits, like grapes, melon and berries. Since they are not fully digested by the body, they have less of an impact on blood sugar levels than other types of carbohydrates. Erythritol, one type of sugar alcohol, is often used in foods to add texture and bulk. Sugar alcohols do not contain the type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages.
Yes. Because stevia adds sweetness without extra calories and does not have a significant impact on blood sugar, it's earned a reputation for being a safe sugar alternative for people with diabetes. Since the overall total carbohydrate content varies between Iskream's flavors depending on ingredients like fruit and dark chocolate, it's important to read the food label and follow recommended serving sizes. This will ensure that you can still enjoy Iskream while sticking to a carbohydrate-controlled eating plan!
Yes, ISKREAM is made with milk and contains lactose and whey. Our milk comes from grass-fed cows that are not treated with hormones.
Iskream is made with gluten free ingredients, including our brownies! However, it is made in a facility that processes wheat. If you have celiac disease or a severe gluten intolerance, we encourage you to speak with your healthcare provider about your diet.
We follow strict food labeling guidelines, and all major allergens are clearly identified on our ingredient listing.
Of course! Without the added sugar and lower in fat compared to regular ice cream, ISKREAM is a perfect way to indulge in a delicious guilt free treat without breaking your calorie quota! As with any food, it's important to stick to suggested serving sizes and enjoy ISKREAM as part of a lifestyle that includes an overall balanced diet and regular physical activity.

Whenever major transmission work in performed, the transmission software should be updated as necessary.
2010 Toyota Camry Questions
2010 Toyota Camry Recalls
Southeast Toyota is recalling certain vehicles because the seat heater element may become damaged as a result of compression of the seat cushion. The damaged element could short causing burning of the seat cushion, increasing the risk of personal injury. Dealers will disconnect seat heaters with copper strand elements and refund the purchase price of the seat heater accessory to correct this concern.
Vehicles have a tire size/weight rating label to inform owners of the carrying capacity of their vehicle. These models are being recalled because the incorrect vehicle weight rating is shown on the information label. This could result in vehicle and tire overloading, increasing the risk of tire failure. Owners will be provided an updated vehicle weight label to correct this concern.
Vehicles that have had accessories added to the seats such as seat heaters, seat covers or DVD headrests may not have the occupant sensor system of the passenger seat calibrated properly. This can affect passenger air bag operation in a crash. Dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors and recalibrate them as necessary free of charge to resolve the concern.
2010 Toyota Camry Reviews
I purchased my Camry new, but have had some surprising problems with it. As others have noted, alignment is a BIG problem. It always wants to pull to the left and I've had several alignments at several different places with the same result. My struts leaked and had to be replaced (all four). That was an expensive repair for something that came prematurely. I had premature brake wear on the...
I'l start by saying, I've had 7 Hondas previously to the 2010 Camry. Had issue with alignment from day one, took it to a large dealer in Omaha for warranty alignment, about 15K and 4 months after purchase. Told it was aligned and would be fine, at least it drove OK. 5K later, while rotating tires noticed heavy edge ware. Took it back and alignment was so far out, front toed in and back toed...
What a piece of garbage! Last Toyota for me. So much wind noise i have to blast the radio just to hear the news.

They also married the Warren family, descendants of the Earls of Chester several times as well as several of he other well known gentry from the Chesire area. John fits perfectly as how would a 16 year old have the money to get passage with the Winthrop fleet, who were all upper class gentry. I think he may have already been engaged to Mary Warren before he left Wrentham, and he and his sister Elizabeth were most probably with John Warren on the Arabella, with John Winthrop.

Tehran, June 18 — Iran's president-elect Hassan Rouhani said Monday that his country would try to be more " transparent" in its nuclear issue to "build confidence".
"The sanctions are problems which Iran faces today and all of us know that they are oppressive," reported Xinhua citing Rouhani during his first press conference, days after being elected Iranian president having garnered 50.7 per cent of the votes last Friday.
Stating that the use of sanctions in today's world was a "reactionary method and its time has already passed", Rouhani said: "The sanctions are not advantageous for the West either, which is facing economic problems. The (imposed) sanctions only benefit Israel, not other states."
Revealing his government's move in future regarding nuclear issue, Rouhani said: "Firstly, Iran will display more transparency to tell the world that it is doing within the international regulations. And secondly, we will increase the confidence between Iran and the world."
About the talks between the Islamic republic and the world powers over the country's nuclear standoff, he said: "We will further activate the talks with the P5+1 group."
"We believe that Iran's nuclear issue would only be settled though negotiations," said Rouhani while reiterating incumbent President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's words that "neither threats nor sanctions will yield results".

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the body's white blood cells (WBCs).
Normally, WBCs help fight infection and protect the body against disease. But in leukemia, WBCs turn cancerous and multiply when they shouldn't, resulting in too many abnormal WBCs. These cells then interfere with the body's ability to function normally.
Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) is a rare childhood cancer that usually happens in children younger than 2 years old. In JMML, too many myelocytes and monocytes (two types of WBCs) are produced from immature blood stem cells called blasts. These myelocytes, monocytes, and blasts overwhelm the normal cells in the bone marrow and other organs, causing the symptoms of JMML.
The cause of JMML is unknown, but doctors do know that certain medical conditions — such as neurofibromatosis type 1 and Noonan syndrome — can make a child more likely to develop it.
JMML tends to progress slowly, so at first a child may have few if any symptoms. In fact, symptoms can take months or even years to develop.
The symptoms of all types of leukemia are generally the same and include:
A doctor who suspects a child has leukemia may order tests that include:
Chemotherapy (the use of drugs to kill cancer cells) may be used to temporarily control JMML. However, effective treatment of JMML usually requires a stem cell (bone marrow) transplant.
This procedure involves destroying cancer cells and normal bone marrow and immune system cells with high-dose chemotherapy and then re-introducing healthy donor stem cells into the body. The new stem cells can rebuild a healthy blood supply and immune system.
Even though these therapies are the treatment of choice for kids with JMML, the disease remains difficult to cure. Researchers are looking into the use of alternative treatments, like molecular-targeted therapies (medicines that slow the growth of cancer cells by blocking certain molecules or proteins that help cancer cells grow) and immunotherapies (medicines that mark cancer cells so that the body's immune system can find the cells and remove them from the body).
Being told that your child has cancer can be very frightening, and the stress of treating the disease can be overwhelming for any family.
Although you might feel like it at times, you're not alone. To find support for you or your child, talk to your doctor or a hospital social worker. Many resources can help you get through this difficult time.

Check out our guidelines and learn how to create your own!
Aswan (Arabic: أسوان Aswān) is a city in the south of Egypt, some 680km (425 miles) south of Cairo, just below the Aswan Dam and Lake Nasser, with a population of 275,000. Aswan is far more relaxed and smaller than Cairo and Luxor.
Aswan is the smallest of the three major tourist cities on the Nile. Being the furthest south of the three, it has a large population of Nubian people, mostly resettled from their homeland in the area flooded by Lake Nasser. Aswan is the home of many granite quarries from which most of the Obelisks seen in Luxor were sourced. Aswan was the ancient Egyptians' gateway to Africa.
Get in[edit]
By plane[edit]
Aswan International Airport is situated 25km SSW of the city, on the west bank and just south of the high dam. Public buses don't go to the airport and security on the approach road to the terminal is tight, so it's probably worth taking a taxi, for which you must agree a price in advance. It is possible to argue the fare down to LE25, but LE30 to LE40 is more realistic (and easier) for most foreigners.
The following airlines operate services to Aswan International Airport: EgyptAir [1] (to/from Abu Simbel, Cairo, Luxor) and LotusAir (to/from Cairo).
By train[edit]
Egypt's passenger train service runs along the Nile between Cairo and Aswan. Travel time from Luxor is around three hours on 1st/2nd class AC services. Five AC express services arrives from Cairo each day, journey time is around 13-14 hours costing 57LE for second class, 113LE first class. In addition there are two sleeper trains, departing 8PM and 9:35PM from Cairo's Ramsis station, prices start from US $120 Single/$100 Double (Mar 2014). Some travel agencies in Cairo might be able to get $90 for Double. Advance booking recommended.
To Luxor (3-4 hours): 1 class / 2 class trains (50 LE / 25 LE): 5:30, 7:00, 15:00, 16:15, 19:45, 20:00, 21:30. 3 class trains (10 LE): 0:00, 9:00, 13:00, 20:15, 22:45 (Mar 2015)
The train station is on the northern end of the city centre, a few hundred metres inland from the river. Leave plenty of time to buy tickets, as the service at the counters is slow. Mini buses depart from outside the station (turn right as you exit the terminal), and there are a number of cafes and basic hotels on the blocks between the station and the river.
By car[edit]
By bus[edit]
From Cairo
There's many trains move to Aswan go to Cairo main railway stain and find your ticket take in consider book in advanced 2 or 3 day before because it's not easy to find ticket in the same day.
Buses from Cairo main bus station Al-torjoman 05:00 PM ticket cost 90LE + 10LE if they discover you are foreigner "not recommended" because the roads are really not safe and the bus arrives to Aswan the next day 09:30 AM if the driver is fast! "24 April 2013" Several lines go to Aswan from the bus station near the railway station, behind the tracks.
November 2015 :Cairo to Aswan bus departs at 5pm Gateway Plaza bus station, price is130LE. Tickets can be purchased at the Gateway Plazza bus station. 13 1/2 hours. no road blocks, no police checks. 130LE is printed on the ticket. arrives at main bus station... 3km north of train station... dusty walk
From Hurghada (513km away)(8Hour++) there's no direct bus move to Aswan from Hurghada but there's bus come from Suez at 10:30 evening and 12:30 midnight come from Cairo and both stop in Hurghada to drop off some people (upper Egypt company), the bus is often come crowded and it's really hard to occupy a set buses cost 50LE. Tickets are sold on the bus, but be sure to ask the price at the ticket office, because the ticket seller on the bus will often raise the price 10LE or so and pocket the excess if you are a foreigner, take in consider that you maybe wait 2 hours or more before the bus arrive.
The best way to go to Aswan from Hurghada is to take the 8:30AM bus to Luxor for 50LE, which takes 4 hours. The company name is Superjet beside Zahran store at Al-nasr st. From Luxor, take a train to Aswan (3 Hours) for 30LE.
By boat[edit]
Dozens of cruise ships travel between Luxor and Aswan. Aswan-Luxor takes 3 nights while Luxor-Aswan takes 4 nights. As of Mar 2014, boats depart from Aswan 3 days per week. These can be booked through agents or at the actual ships themselves.
Also a boat to Wadi Halfa in Sudan departs once a week on Sundays (Feb 2014). Tickets go on sale on Monday for the following sunday and sell out quickly.
Alternatively instead of waiting in Aswan for a week, a fixer can be used to arrange a Sudan visa in 15 minutes, a spot on the boat (Even on the actual day of sailing) and help getting through the terminal. Price would be between 50-100 EP for the service.
Get around[edit]
Aswan is compact enough to negotiate primarily on foot. To access Philae, the High Dam, and the unfinished obelisks, you can take a taxi or a horse-drawn carriage. A taxi excursion to all of these sights should cost 80LE to 100LE per vehicle.
To access the sights on the river islands or on the West Bank, you will need to cross the river by motor boat or felluca. Be sure to pay attention to the price as operators try to overcharge tourists. If you take the public ferry to the West Bank, you pay only 5LE.
Aswan Town and the East Bank[edit]
The River and Islands[edit]
West Bank[edit]
Around Aswan[edit]
The souqs (markets) in Aswan are refreshingly exotic without the same level of high-pressure selling found in some tourist towns further north. You will generally find that Nubian handicrafts are of higher quality and better value in Aswan. All other goods will be more expensive than in Cairo due to shipping costs to Aswan and the lower tourist demand. Having said that, the Aswan souk still has a lot of unscrupulous sellers trying to con their way into selling you low quality goods at high price. Try your best to compare the prices before buying and don't be hesitant to haggle.
Aswan is much less strict on drinking alcohol than Cairo or Luxor, and many of the restaurants sell Stella (Egyptian brand not the Belgian brand) and Saqqara, both of which are lagers and comparable to European beers.
In Aswan, as else in Egypt, decent and reasonably priced options are scarce. Most often, there is either a choice between dirt-cheap (although not that 'dirt-cheap' anymore) but severely run-down hotels and those charging European prices for a level of service of a very bad 3 star hotel. A recent review of all of them makes the Queen Hotel (about 200m right from the railway station, behind a car-washing facility, prices from 70 EGP) and the already mentionned Noorhan hotel which is in the first alley on your left once you enter the souq the most recommendable budget options for a traveler. Prices at Northaan start from 50 EGP (FREE Wi-Fi), you might want to take the rooms with bathroom included, those are significantly cleaner. Altough with a smelly reception, the rooms are clean by Egyptian standards, linen freshly washed, the location is the most central and there isn't any pressure to book you on tours with them. The guys are laid-back and the experience is seamless. You can pay on check-out. It is the same owner as the Queen Hotel. Memnon Hotel has since doubled prices and those are 90 EGP for singles, 80 after hard bargaining though views of the Nile are nice. (April 2015)
Stay safe[edit]
Aswan is generally a very safe city. However, do watch out for quite blatant attempts at pickpocketing in the souq. These thieves will approach you carrying scarves, shirts or even papyrus in one hand to sell to you, while attempting to go into your pockets with the other hand. The locals know this goes on, but do not count on them to intervene. Also, women should avoid travelling alone if they are not comfortable with leering men, although they are all bluster. Most horse carriage drivers will not commit on the price when you arrive at your destination and you're expect to give more.
Once you escape the tourist-heavy places (i.e. the corniche), you'll find that many of the locals are very friendly and funny as is Egyptian culture. If you go into a shop to buy some snacks/water and the owner does not have change, it is not at all uncommon to see him run out and look for change while leaving you alone in the shop. Egyptians are by nature very friendly and honest people, with an unfortunate population corrupted by the need to scam and steal from tourists.
Internet access is available at Keylany Hotel and Noorhan Hotel for 10LE per hour; but internet speeds are very slow. Kothor Hotel has more easonably fast internet available for 5LE per hour or 10LE unlimited for your stay.
There is so much to do around the Aswan area that time can be an issue. The local people are generally very cooperative, and for a price, doors might remain opened regardless of the hour. November 2015 too many offers of Nubia banana from the boys with Felucas....sad bast****.....

My Cat has Zippers by GlassHouse-1Watch

My cat, Misty, has zippers on the backs of her front legs. That's how she puts her cat suit on.
haha so sweet!
Thanks Kate. She is so good around my grandsons. My other cat hides in the basement or under my bed when I watch them.
Doesn't do stretches by halves
I've been trying to get pics of her zippers and you can only see them when she stretches. Every time I would try to get a pic, of course she would stop or roll over on the other side. This is why her whole body isn't in the pic.
cool cat
I love cats
Me too, I have two. But then I love all animals.
Nice shot!

How heart-warming! It's really nice to see that at least gays aren't oppressed as much in tyrranical countries like China and North Korea (http://israblog.nana10.co.il/blogread.asp?blog=573275&year=2009&month=5, bottom post).

By the way, Dan: They can't get married in either of those countries (well they can, but it won't be legally recognised), although I think at least some of these countries acknowledge gay marriage in foreign countries (like Israel does). Maybe it was a subtle criticism, like, 'They can get married there! Oh? They can't? And why in the world can't they?'
I think the "France, Finland and UK" comment was referring to civil unions being available in all three of these countries. In countries without any recognition of same-sex unions, there is often a common misperception that civil partnerships are the same as marriage. (This is the case even in Australia, where one often hears comments along the lines of "Australia should catch up with the UK, gays can get married there").
*chuckles at Marks first comment*
Well no denying that getting legalized gay marriage in china could possibly help with the population issue, even still isn't the the one child law?
I mainly see this as another slap in the face of the US who tends to think of itself as the "civilized" and right world, everyone around them are starting to wake up and become more progressive, while the States leaders are still too stuck behind the blinders of Religion.
China Daily is a horrid rag!!
It is renowned for bad journalism and shoddy fact checking here in China. I remember one time a article about research into Alzhimer's came accompanied with an X-Ray of Homer Simpson's brain.
It the official English language newspaper targeted to foreigners and is written intentionally to portray China in the most positive light to the west.
The majority of it's staff are junior reporters being to what to and how to right by the government. After doing what they are told they get rewarded with a job at a more prestigious newspaper.

Photograph everything!
*photographs deviation*
A lot of people already do this on facebook. So freaky.
I mean why the hell would I want to see a lunch I'm pretty sure is poop by now?
I mean why the hell would I want to see a lunch I'm pretty sure is poop by now?
Is it bad that I already do this?
Also once you photograph somebody, you should casually and creepily say "Did you know, in some cultures, they believe that when you photograph someone, you're actually stealing a part of their soul?" O_O

I already do it sometimes xD my mother always yells at me because of it hahaha
Me and my family always yell at my mom for it, because she thinks she has to photograph everything, but it seriously takes her forever to take a picture and then she has to redo the same picture like six times. NO JOKE! O_O
She kinda sucks with cameras. XD
She kinda sucks with cameras. XD
I do that!
I already do that! (much to the annoyance of pretty much everyone)
I already do this... Yay!
this is so me....I took a picture of my tooth brush once. (this was obviously when I was first discovering the camera's magical ability to put a bunch of colors on a screen arranged in the way it is in real life.)
this is me <3
these are funny things to do!
...shouldn't there be a photo of this then?
i do not only photograph everything i see, i also do it like 5 times!
Isn't it already happening? :3 But thanks for underlining the stupidity of the process.
But I always do that, does that make me insane? Oh wait, I Am Insane!
I already do anyway.
I DO THIS! TODAY IN ANIME CLUB I JUST WROTE SOMETHING RANDOM ON THE BOARD AND MY FRIEND DREW A LITTLE KITTY AND I WAS LIKE, WELL, NOW I NEED A PICTURE. Then I may always remember that random thing I said and that little kitty.
I take so many pictures when I have my camera it annoys people. So many that, when I want to find one thing, it's lost in a sea of creativevomit. XD
I never have a camera when I need one.
ha ha I do this. Something cool happens and I'm like
"oh I have to take a picture!"
Everyone else
"oh I have to take a picture!"
Everyone else
I already do XD I have this OCD that I have to take pictures of what I'm eating before I take a bite, and I have to take pictures of random things or else I don't function properly. Once I lost my camera and I thought I was going to die, but I realized that my phone had a camera XD
Oh! I took a picture of that huge scary stuffed bear I told you about, but I'm not sure how to get it from my phone to my laptop. Lame ass phone anyway, but it was the free one from verizon.
Maybe I'll borrow my sister's camera or something. It would be better than my phone anyway. They put the bear up on a stand or something, so it is like 8 feet tall now.
*clicks camera* that's going in my September 2012 album.
If i knew how to upload photographs from my phone, I'd upload a picture of this. Hey, the HLOI commands it, and so it must be done.
Photograph everything, because you never know when you might need evidence... Or get a good blackmail photo XD
My uncle has already accomplished this. He recently got a new high tech camera for his birthday and has been photographing every. freaking. moment. of. every. freaking. party/get together. we. go. to.
And that's only when I'm around. I pity my cousin
And that's only when I'm around. I pity my cousin
i already do that lol
Yeah, I can do this! Just gotta get my camera and- Oh wait, I lost the charger on my last trip to Narnia *sadface*
NO!! You lost it in NARNIA!?! We'll NEVER find it now!!
I've even taken photos of food after each bite, because I like watching it disappear. Guess I'm kind of a weirdo.

My husband mocks how i say things and he makes comments about how i say things to people..am i getting on his nerves?
Lol you just might!
He is being rude an immature and probably only mocks you because it makes him feel like he's better which he's plainly not. Don't put up with it or better mock him back then ask if he likes it. :) good luck
exactly and these sort of people are actually the most insecure in themselves.. with good reason usually, reason being they're di cks :)
I don't know if you're getting on his nerves, but just from your comments - he's getting on mine.
Glad to have given you a little laugh. :)
My husband does the same thing. He says that he does it so that I can see how stupid what I am saying sounds. So this morning he repeated verbatim what I had said to my daughter when departing for work. When I asked if he was mocking me, or if I had said something to offend him he grew increasingly angry. I apologized for my wording, and restated it as "repeating what I said" as he seemed focused solely on the fact I had used the word "mock". Nothing I said was addressed, and his mockery went on as 'all in my head' and I'm 'overly sensitive'. It's annoying and hurtful, I hate when they act like children, I already have 4 children, if I'd wanted more I would have had more, I wanted a man who would treat me with a little respect and who I could ask a simple question to without having a fight over it. Simple answer would have been 'no, I'm not upset with you about anything' knowing full well how it urks me to be copied. I'm sorry your husband is a douche too, it's sad to live like this isn't it?
I'm going thru this just this year never thought he would be like this
Your husband is putting you down and that's not cool. You're his wife and he should be respectful of you. You're not getting on his nerves. He's being mean and insecure. Next time he mocks you, tell him to stop putting you down and if he doesn't stop, mock him back when he wasn't mocking you at the time. Do it when no one is around. If he does that in front of friends/family, stay cool until you get home and then have a word with him. If he still disrespect you then you need to really do something about his behaviour and not your voice.
Maybe, or he may just be a immature jerk,
Well, he should be getting on YOUR nerves. That shows a lack of respect and is a way of undermining your self-esteem. Tell him to shut up, get counseling or get lost...but don't let him put you down like that.
Has he done this allways or is this a new development?
He has lost respect for you or is possibly angry with you for something recent or both.
Just want to add that I read that you are wanting to get away. Running away might not be the greatest thing to do. If you care about him then it would be best dor you to ask him whats the big deal. Get down to the bottom of it then after you do... then decide on some time alone.
You're not getting on his nerves. He just has no respect for you. Time for you to show him the same level of respect he has for you.
Glad to hear that. Wish the best for you.
Give him some space
Good, you need time for you too
Sounds like he should be getting on your nerves.
He sounds like kind of a ****.

Craniofacial microsomia
Craniofacial microsomia
On this page:
Reviewed March 2012
What is craniofacial microsomia?
Craniofacial microsomia is a term used to describe a spectrum of abnormalities that primarily affect the development of the skull (cranium) and face before birth. Microsomia means abnormal smallness of body structures. Most people with craniofacial microsomia have differences in the size and shape of facial structures between the right and left sides of the face (facial asymmetry). In about two-thirds of cases, both sides of the face have abnormalities, which usually differ from one side to the other. Other individuals with craniofacial microsomia are affected on only one side of the face. The facial characteristics in craniofacial microsomia typically include underdevelopment of one side of the upper or lower jaw (maxillary or mandibular hypoplasia), which can cause dental problems and difficulties with feeding and speech. In cases of severe mandibular hypoplasia, breathing may also be affected.
People with craniofacial microsomia usually have ear abnormalities affecting one or both ears, typically to different degrees. They may have growths of skin (skin tags) in front of the ear (preauricular tags), an underdeveloped or absent external ear (microtia or anotia), or a closed or absent ear canal; these abnormalities may lead to hearing loss. Eye problems are less common in craniofacial microsomia, but some affected individuals have an unusually small eyeball (microphthalmia) or other eye abnormalities that result in vision loss.
Abnormalities in other parts of the body, such as malformed bones of the spine (vertebrae), abnormally shaped kidneys, and heart defects, may also occur in people with craniofacial microsomia.
Many other terms have been used for craniofacial microsomia. These other names generally refer to forms of craniofacial microsomia with specific combinations of signs and symptoms, although sometimes they are used interchangeably. Hemifacial microsomia often refers to craniofacial microsomia with maxillary or mandibular hypoplasia. People with hemifacial microsomia and noncancerous (benign) growths in the eye called epibulbar dermoids may be said to have Goldenhar syndrome or oculoauricular dysplasia.
How common is craniofacial microsomia?
Craniofacial microsomia has been estimated to occur in between 1 in 5,600 and 1 in 26,550 newborns. However, this range may be an underestimate because not all medical professionals agree on the criteria for diagnosis of this condition, and because mild cases may never come to medical attention. For reasons that are unclear, the disorder occurs about 50 percent more often in males than in females.
What genes are related to craniofacial microsomia?
It is unclear what genes are involved in craniofacial microsomia. This condition results from problems in the development of structures in the embryo called the first and second pharyngeal arches (also called branchial or visceral arches). Tissue layers in the six pairs of pharyngeal arches give rise to the muscles, arteries, nerves, and cartilage of the face and neck. Specifically, the first and second pharyngeal arches develop into the lower jaw, the nerves and muscles used for chewing and facial expression, the external ear, and the bones of the middle ear. Interference with the normal development of these structures can result in the abnormalities characteristic of craniofacial microsomia.
There are several factors that can disrupt the normal development of the first and second pharyngeal arches and lead to craniofacial microsomia. Some individuals with this condition have chromosomal abnormalities such as deletions or duplications of genetic material; these individuals often have additional developmental problems or malformations. Occasionally, craniofacial microsomia occurs in multiple members of a family in a pattern that suggests inheritance of a causative gene mutation, but the gene or genes involved are unknown. In other families, individuals seem to inherit a predisposition to the disorder. The risk of craniofacial microsomia can also be increased by environmental factors, such as certain drugs taken by the mother during pregnancy. In most affected individuals, the cause of the disorder is unknown.
It is not well understood why certain disruptions to development affect the first and second pharyngeal arches in particular. Researchers suggest that these structures may develop together in such a way that they respond as a unit to these disruptions.
How do people inherit craniofacial microsomia?
Craniofacial microsomia most often occurs in a single individual in a family and is not inherited. If the condition is caused by a chromosomal abnormality, it may be inherited from one affected parent or it may result from a new abnormality in the chromosome and occur in people with no history of the disorder in their family.
In 1 to 2 percent of cases, craniofacial microsomia is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, which means one copy of an altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the disorder. In rare cases, the condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, which means both copies of a gene in each cell have mutations. The parents of an individual with an autosomal recessive condition each carry one copy of the mutated gene, but they typically do not show signs and symptoms of the condition. The gene or genes involved in craniofacial microsomia are unknown.
In some affected families, people seem to inherit an increased risk of developing craniofacial microsomia, not the condition itself. In these cases, some combination of genetic changes and environmental factors may be involved.

F/S: Bottle of MTG
Basically, my mare's tail is short, people recommended for me to try MTG and I discovered that my mare is allergic to it and gets hives from it. I used it twice, and just don't want it lying around my tack trunk. I'll sell it for $14 shipped, and can take a pic of how much there is left. (probably 1/2 inch [not even] gone from when I bought it)

The persistent problem we face in the area of electricity power supply continues to draw attention to our inability to find a lasting solution to the challenge. In this latest episode of our national disgrace and shame, there was problem with Kainji Dam as well as gas supply to the power turbines. The result was that power supply dropped drastically across the nation.
As if this was not enough, electricity workers unions were threatening industrial action. Then there was the not so small matter of missed deadlines in the Roadmap that President Goodluck Jonathan drew up for the power sector, and the frustration it has caused potential investors in the sector, many of whom are now suspected to have lost interest in the project. In the midst of this we learnt that the Minister of Power, Prof. Barth Nnaji, summoned all the top management staff of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN), presumably for the same tonguelashing that had not produced any measurable result in the past. And then we learnt further that Nnaji fired three top executives of the power company, which, in the light of the monumental incompetence that has characterised the sector, cannot be described as drastic or even the correct action. By the end of what looked like an eventful week, we ended up with a great deal of motion and no movement.
But in truth that has been the nature of efforts by successive federal governments to solve the power supply problem. We have gone through layers and chains of committees; we have experienced commercialisation; we have witnessed the "unbundling" of the power sector; then there was the National Integrated Power Project which was more noted for its corruption that even tainted a committee of the House of Representative that tried to probe it. Then wehave President Jonathan's Roadmap.
Let us look briefly first at this Roadmap, which should be our last bus stop in the journey to sustainable power supply. The privatisation process of a behemoth organisation that supplies power to a nation as vast as Nigeria was scheduled to be squeezed into a time-line of eight months: March - October 2012! This, we must bear in mind, is a process that involves legal, technical and other specialised elements. It also involves foreign bidders who are much used to allowing themselves time to get their numbers right and their acts together. Not surprisingly, one delay has had a knock-on effect on the entire chain and today, the presidential roadmap appears to be a bus ride to nowhere.
Our next observation on the longterm prospects of power supply is perhaps a belated one. It is our view that the privatisation of the power sector should have been preceded by the completion of the various on-going constructions of new power plants. At the completion of such plants, the Nigerian public should be made aware of what the country has expended in upgrading its power supply sector so that an informed citizenry will be better equipped to understand the value of the sector at the point of privatisation as well as appreciate what would be a realistic income from the exercise. The bidders themselves would also be well aware that they are buying into a healthy and technically sound power sector and would not later try to play smart by charging exorbitant tarrif on the claim that they have been investing in new plants and equipment. Failure to do this would land the country in the same situation that the botched privatisation of NITEL has left us.
Instructively, when President Jonathan came to power nearly a year ago riding a crest of popular support, he acknowledged that the first challenge of his transformation agenda would be in the area of power supply, without which other elements would suffer. But a mere one month before his first anniversary as substantive president, Nigerians are still waiting for just a chink of light to show that the promised transformation is on course.

Talk:Digital Revolution
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Concerns about the Digital Revolution page[edit]
I came to this article after reading the article about the industrial revolution, and the contrast was jarring. This article is doesn't seem to have the depth I'd expect given that this is likely the single most important event of the last 50 years. There are just a couple sentences about each decade, no mention of some of the early pioneers. I know that there are articles on these specifics within Wikipedia, but I think this specific article would be improved if it had at least enough of a framework to link all these elements together (for example, you should have something to link to people like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Wozniak, etc. Also, the advent of CD's was mentioned, but no real discussion of the incredible pace of technological advancement (Moore's Law, etc.). Also, there isn't much about the web, especially the transition from dial-up to broadband.
Lastly, and in my view most importantly, there is a very limited and, in my opinion negatively biased, discussion of the greater impact from this revolution. The statement about the economic impacts was vague and provided no objective measure (statistics), and the key advantage noted was the protection against totalitarianism (which, while important, doesn't really come to mind for most of us when thinking about how our lives have changed over this time). What about the incredible gains in productivity/efficiency? Scientific advances enabled by our technology? Reduced barriers to entry & lower fixed costs for businesses? Increased power of individuals, such that one normal person really can change the world now via the internet? I don't disagree that the automation & outsourcing have cost a lot of jobs, but my guess is on balance the technology has actually created more jobs, even in America.
As I stated at the top, I had just read about the industrial revolution, and it too exacted significant costs in terms of automating or transplanting jobs, forcing workers into low-paying and unpleasant jobs, etc. However, it's page notes the overwhelmingly positive overall impact of such technological progress, and I'd expect this page would as well.
I hope this is read simply as helpful criticism, not of complaining or insulting. I am not an expert on this topic and so can't personally improve the page, but I just wanted to express my opinions as a reader. I hope you find these suggestions helpful, thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pullmaniacs (talk • contribs) 09:01, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- Well, you have to remember that the Digital Revolution is still ongoing, so its imply not realistic to expect it to be described in the same amount of depth as the Industrial Revolution, which historians have been studying for well over a century. I agree that the article could use more sources and better analyses and so on, but the kind of sources and analyses we'd like to have simply don't exist yet. We need to wait until we have a fuller picture, and that's why at the moment there's not much to say besides generalizations. Overall, though I like the overall drive of the article and expect in the years to come it will be properly fleshed out.theBOBbobato (talk) 17:44, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
--Cellphone users 2010-- I am just curious, as I was reading the stats for cellphone and internet users, does this also include the fact that some people use the internet on their cellphones and may not use internet at home as a result? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 08:03, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
Something wrong...?[edit]
Under the section "Rise in Digital Technology Use", under 2010, it says that the Internet has 1,800 billion users. Unless I'm mistaken, the Internet hasn't spread outside of the Earth yet, so this number is wrong. Should that be 1.8 billion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikihunter734 (talk • contribs) 23:00, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

When did the digital revolution start?[edit]
The opening of the article says the digital revolution started somewhere in the 1950s to 1970s era. However, Economist Robert Gordon argues that the digital revolution didn't start until 1996 or so, when its impact began to be reflected in productivity statistics. [1] Any thoughts on expanding the range of times when the revolution began? Robert Gordon is pretty mainstream as far as I know. Tedsanders (talk) 19:21, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
1996 is when the digital revolution *ended*. The revolution over, productivity rose.

Yes so embarrassing. I had a crush on a boy named Joe. I wrote my friend Jennifer about it. The note was just all about how cute I thought he was and how I could get him to notice me. LOL
I had to read it out loud to the class. Joe was in the class.
it had a really good ending though. I was married to Joe for nearly 12 wonderful years.
Did you ever get caught passing a note in the classroom and the teacher made you read that note out loud in front of the class?

- Emilybum 2012/07/20 03:49:12Yes, that happened to me!+1Oh my god, this happened like an hour ago at school with me and my best friend ! We had to write notes for french class, and we had an extra piece of paper witch we decided to draw on while the french video was playing. We drew a horse with a g-string, boobs and a penis and it said "whore" next to it. Lots of Penis's everywhere. We drew an ass with hair on it and said it was our teacher Miss Wu. We drew some guy with a massive penis. The whole page was filled with inappropriate pictures. We thought we weren't gonna get caught until The teacher comes over and asks to see out notes. As she was grabbing it i tried to scrunch it up, it was pretty funny actually.
- haha that happend to me too we were supposed to be drawing faces and mine was rlly bad so 2 of my friends took it and drew d***s coming out if the mouth and wrote very inappropriate things on it i then notest the teacher was coming to collect it so i threw it on a desk the teacher picked it up and made a weird face she crumbled it up and put it im the garbage hahaha X)
- Hey! I like your eyes<3 2012/07/16 05:55:48No, I did pass notes but was never caught.I remember though, in second grade, somebody had passed a note, and the teacher took it, and instead of making them read it outloud, she put it out in the hallway for everyone to see.
- Angryface01 2012/07/15 06:39:56Yes, that happened to me!+1It was not from or to me... I was the relay... If my memory serves... a girl in front of me had been talking (boasting really) about getting butt massages and how wonderful they felt because her derriere was so tight from cheer-leading. To my horror, the senior behind me (Geometry class) asked me to hand her a note but I got caught passing it. I immediately dimed him out and the teacher made ME read it anyway... the note said something along the lines of, "would you like help loosening up your butt?" I didn't write it, but I was horrified to have to read it.

Dear Mr. Turner,
I know that look in your eye. You're getting ready to take someone's note, aren't you? Well, I'd like to let you know that you'll get no satisfaction from hearing schoolyard gossip in this one, because I've written this note to a third rate teacher like yourself. Feel free to read this one out loud. I dare you.
- artistheweapon 2012/07/12 23:35:49Yes, that happened to me!But the teacher read it for me. It was an inside joke that my "friend" decided to play dumb for

- Stef and the City 2012/07/12 20:27:25UndecidedI was caught a few times but they never made me read the notes aloud. Looking back, that was probably for the best considering one of them was about our creepy math teacher and how he always sat on the corner of mine and one of my girlfriend's desks or stood right infront of us during class with his pork sword directly in our faces. I even added a pretty intricate drawing.

Roasted Brined Turkey
180 minutes
Brine Ingredients:
1 gallon water
1 pound kosher salt (if you can't find kosher salt let me know and i'll try to find the substitue amount for either sea salt or table salt)
1/2 cup cracked black peppercorns
3 tsp ground cloves
3 tsp ounce ground ginger
12 bay leaves
24 ounce honey
24 ounce "real" maple syrup
Roast Turkey Ingredients:
1 (10-pound) whole fresh turkey with giblets removed
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
2 tsp chopped garlic
2 tsp chopped fresh sage leaves
1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary leaves
2 apples, quartered and cored
1 onion, peeled and quartered
3 sprigs sage
2 rosemary sprigs
Olive oil, for drizzling
How to make it
The day before you plan to roast the turkey, make the Brine: In a stockpot, bring the water, salt, peppercorns, cloves, ginger, and bay leaves to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and stir in honey and maple syrup until well blended. Turn off the heat and leave the brine to cool to room temperature.
Rinse the turkey inside and out with water. Immerse the turkey completely in the brine, either in the stockpot or, if necessary, in a clean basin large enough to hold the turkey and submerge it completely. Place a weight on top of turkey to hold it down beneath the brine's surface. Refridgerate and leave the turkey in the brine for at least 4 hours or as long as overnight.
Preheat over to 325 degrees F.
In a mixing bowl, mash the butter together with the garlic, chopped sage, and chopped rosemary. Inserting your hands through the bird's neck opening, gently loosen the skin from the flesh above the breast. Rub the butter mixture evenly under the skin. Insert the apples, onions, and whole sage and rosemary sprigs into the cavity of the turkey.
Place the turkey in a roasting pan, breast side up. Tuck the wings back and under the turkey. Using kitchen twine, tie the ends of the drumsticks together to make a compact shape for a more attractive presentation. Drizzle the turkey with olive oil and rub into the skin.
Transfer the turkey to the preheated oven and roast it until the breast meat registers 165 degrees F, about 2 1/2 hours.
If the skin appears to be browning too qucikly, tent the bird with a sheet of aluminum foil.
Remember to let the turkey rest for 15-20 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute through the bird.
Print it!

DEERFIELD — Knowing how much Tom Thibodeau is a creature of habit, there's no reason to expect the Bulls head coach to add too many new wrinkles to his squad's offense, despite getting a chance to soak in even more basketball knowledge than usual this past summer, courtesy of his initial stint as a USA Basketball assistant coach.
But while the traditionally inside-out Bulls shouldn't be expected to suddenly morph into a run-and-gun, quick-shooting, three-point-happy, backdoor-lob-throwing team in the upcoming campaign, Thibodeau has acknowledged that the return of Derrick Rose and the development of Jimmy Butler brings new possibilities to the table in the backcourt. Arguably the most athletic starting guard duo in the NBA, besides Rose simply regaining his rhythm after missing all of last season, another important aspect of the ongoing training camp has been the former league MVP building chemistry with Butler, his new backcourt partner.
Butler's emergence in the second half of last season as a premier defender, confident scorer and capable outside shooter is something that even the droll Thibodeau hasn't been able to downplay.
"With experience, you learn. I think that he has a much better understanding of what we need him to do. I thought he had a terrific year last year. Now the challenge is to build consistency, to be able to do it over a long period of time. I love his attitude and approach. That hasn't changed from the day he walked in this gym, and I hope it never does. I think when you have those type of characteristics, you'll continue to improve, so his approach to the game is very, very good," Thibodeau said after Wednesday's practice at the Berto Center. "His confidence shooting the ball, I think that's continued. I think the second half of last season, he shot the three real well for us, and we saw that from practice. Almost right from the start, we felt that way when we drafted him because of the way he shot his free throws. We thought he had the capability of being a very big corner three-point shooter, and I think his confidence has grown from there. He's put a lot of time into it. The thing about him is he can do a little bit of everything. You can post him up. If it's a small two, he'll take him inside. He can catch and shoot, he can spot up, he can put it on the floor, he runs the floor great and his defense, it's pretty obvious the type of defensive player that he is."
[MORE: Rose increasingly eager to make return to the court]
Rose was even more effusive in his praise for the third-year swingman, who is extremely popular with his teammate and regarded as almost a little brother to Bulls veterans.
"Jimmy is good, man. He improved so much. He came out to L.A. and worked out with me for about a week. He came back here for a couple of weeks, and then when I came back, he's playing with a lot more confidence. We're just trying to get him comfortable so that, we're going to allow him to make mistakes. Just get that chemistry. He deserves to be a starter and he deserved to play through his mistakes, and we're just trying to get that to him right now where he deserves to play make, do whatever he wants to do, what's comfortable and it will make us better," Rose said. "He's a guy that plays defense all the time. He's one of the best defensive players in the league, and he's going to push everybody to be better, especially on the defensive end where he's giving all of his energy to that side of the court. For us we need him. He rebounds, he can play the four, the three. He's just a guy who can be all over the court at times.
"He's been knocking down his shot. He's been shooting the ball a lot better. He's coming in, staying afterward, just getting up shots, and I think his timing is going to come back. It's already there, but just shooting the ball. When he gets to shoot the ball he has to because the way our offense is, if he doesn't shoot it kind of leaves us stagnant, and we don't need that for our offense right now."
[RELATED: Chicago native Rose talks 1-on-1 vs. Jordan]
Though Bulls players and coaches alike have been pleased with Butler's progress, the swingman isn't letting their praise go to his head, as the Texas native simply sees his role as a scoring option as a product of how talented his teammates are.
"It's no different for me. My job is to play hard, guard, hit open shots and be a good teammate. Thibs wants a team full of leaders, so I have to be much more of a leader also. The one thing that's different is I'm coming out of the starting lineup," he explained. "I can feel already that a lot of attention goes to Derrick, (Carlos Boozer) and (Joakim Noah). I'm left alone a lot. I can knock down shots. It's way more fast-paced with (Luol Deng), myself and Derrick pushing it. Everybody is flying up and down. And then knowing we have four or five guys that can guard any position makes it easier.
"I'm moving, getting to the open place, cutting to the basket. It's the same type of game for me. It just may be a little easier because Derrick is out there. He's always looking to find that open guy. If he can't finish at the cup or get a pull-up jumper out of it, he's going to get it to the right guy," Butler continued. "It sounds easy. But you still have to knock down shots, put in the time and rep after rep so that when you get into the game, it's second nature for you."
[MORE: Bulls' training camp a lesson in chemistry]
The final pick of the first round in the 2011 NBA Draft and an afterthought during his rookie season, Butler has the same mentality he had when he was an overlooked junior-college prospect coming out of Tomball, Texas.
"Keep working. Keep doing what I've been doing to get me to this point. Never stop working because if you do, you'll either stay the same or people will pass you. As long as I stay in the gym, I feel I can keep getting better," the Marquette product said of his skill development. "I tried to work on my post game, my open J, obviously, defense and ball-handling. It's all putting it together."
Butler pointed to his time working out with Rose in California as key to their chemistry, given that the pair barely played together when Rose was last healthy, in the 2011-12 season, when Butler was an NBA novice facing the disadvantage of no summer league and an abbreviated training camp due to the lockout-shortened schedule.
"He knew I was coming. We talked about it when I left the ESPYs my first time out there. I was like, 'Man, I definitely want to come back and work with you and work on my game and work on it differently than I do here.' We kept in touch, and we set a date and it worked out," explained Butler, who said he spent a total of two and a half weeks in L.A. "I think all of that comes with confidence. When I was working out with him, he was constantly helping me. When I make a shot, make the next one. If I turn the ball over in a drill, 'It's all right. Get it next time.' That's what a great leader and teammate does. That's Derrick for you. He's always wanting his teammates to be successful. He wants you to be confident.
"Those workouts are really tiring. I'm not going to lie. We'd just go eat and chill and talk about the season, our goals. Then we'd start right back up the next morning."
[RELATED: James, Pittman could lead race for final Bulls roster spot]
A teammate of Rose's close friend, Randall Hampton, for a season at Tyler Junior College, Butler also strengthened his relationship with Rose while in Los Angeles, as well as getting a taste of the celebrity life.
"I was having dinner, and Tyson Chandler came up to me and shook my hand. He said, 'I really respect you and how hard you play and your game.' That's like, wow. Dude knows who I am, and I'm from Tomball? Nobody is supposed to know who I am. That's a really great feeling," Butler recounted about the former Bulls center, while not the biggest name in the world, recognizing him. "He's an NBA player. He's a star. I'll take that any day."
Butler did manage to squeeze in some personal time and decompress before the season, though he now feels at home in Chicago.
"Family time, that's huge because we're right back at it for the majority of this year," he said. "This is my second family. I love these guys and this organization. This is where I want to be."
[MORE: Thibodeau expects his assistants to take on larger roles]
While not in as much awe of Rose as he was when he was a rookie, Butler is still amazed by the point guard's unique abilities during the start of the Bulls' training camp, especially the Chicago native's explosiveness, leading up to Saturday night's preseason-opener in Indianapolis against the Central Division rival Pacers.
"It's been fun. He makes everything so much easier. You get out in the open floor, and he's putting the ball in the air for highlight plays and he's finishing himself. It's crazy because I've never really done it before. I've just watched. It's totally different being out there with him," he said of Rose's uncanny athleticism. "Put that ball in the air and dunk it. Hang on the rim, scream and all of that good stuff. It's crazy. He's super athletic. People may think I'm a little athletic, but seeing the things he does without the ball, he's like superhuman.
"He's super excited. Look at the guy. He's putting in work. He wants to be successful. He wants to be great. He wants the team to be great. He wants to do great things for this city and this organization. With him teaming up with us on Saturday, you'll see a smile on his face. But you'll also see one on each and every one of ours."

LOVE this black shadow. It is my FAVORITE black shadow. It is soo easy to put on, it blend so easily, the color is really nice and there is NO FALLOUTS even if there is shimmers in. I use this all the time for smoky eyes or to darken the crease area!

I really dont have a problem with the glitter. When I put this on, it is a vibrant jet black on me. It is way better than most black shadows I have tried. When I touched this on my finger tip at Ulta. I had to buy it

I don't own this,but I have tried it and it's just too glittery for my taste. The color is a medium pigmented flat black,with silver glitter. The fall out is bad and the staying power is mediocre.

This shadow does double duty for me, and I love it. I apply it dry and lightly for a dark dramatic smoky eye, or I wet an angled brush with visine and use it as an eyeliner. I think the glitter rocks. LOVE IT.

I got this shade in a palette, and it is the best black eye shadow I have. I don't really mind the glitter: If I use it as a shadow, I tap off the brush and that gets most of the glitter off. And if I use this as a liner, I don't notice any fallout of glitter on my face, so I don't mind it. I guess this is black, but it is really nice because it doesn't look flat and lifeless when you put it on your eyes. You can also apply it lightly for just a little shading, or darker for more intensity and you can apply it wet or dry.
I personally use this mostly for a liner, but occasionaly I use it as a shadow. It works great both ways.

I got this as part of an eyeshadow palette, and I use it as eyeliner. It actually stays on better than most pencil and gel liners I've used, and it seems to be fairly waterproof. It can be applied with an angled brush for a clean look, but it's easy to blend and smudge if you'd like a smoky look. Just make sure you don't get too much on the brush, because this stuff (especially the glitter) tends to flake and go everywhere. It takes some practice.

i got this in the urban decay ammo palette. not one of my favourite colours as there is an incredible amount of glittery fall out! it's so pigmented but the fallout is just ridiculous even if i have used udpp! if i use this, i use the tiniest bit ever as it all just goes all over on my cheeks :@

I've had this for a few years, and that's not a good thing. When I use it, it gets extremely messy and then I have raccoon eyes. It might also be that I don't know how to apply black eyeshadow on and I have medium colored skin, but nonetheless, I find it difficult to blend and shape when I use all other UD colors easily.

i got this in a palette (the silver one with the skull on it) and it's definitely one of my go-to colours. maybe it's because i'm young, but i don't tend to see urban decay's use of glitter as anything other than a plus; i like that their shadows are fun and i guess different. i've read on here that this colour can come with multicoloured sparkles but mine is only silver. that doesn't stop me using this as liner or for a smokey eye on a regular basis, i find urban decay eye shadows really easy to work with and incredibly highly pigmented. if i run out i probably will buy this shadow again, since i use it so often i'd regard it as a staple.

Now, Vongerichten wants to know how he pulled it off: Was it Achatz' skill, experience, dedication to culinary excellence ... or a little something else? Watch below to see Vogerichten ask this burning question, and Achatz's high-larious response.
