- Removes dirt, oil and impurities
- The special formula prevents pimples
- For clean and clear skin which glows
I bought this face wash 3 days ago and using it twice a day. It is colorless and looks like a gel with a good smell. My opinion is that this is one of the best face washes for oily skinned people. They can surely use this face wash without any hesitation. It cleanses the skin well and controls oil secretion. My face doesn't feel oily at all even after 2 hours of washing.
1. Very best to use for oily skin as it washes out excess oil and keeps your skin fresh.
2. It smells better and a little drop is enough to wash the entire face and neck. It lathers well and rinses out completely.
3. The best summer time face wash which we can carry in our handbag everywhere
4. Affordable for good worth ( A gift for oily skinned people)
1. The face wash is not good to use if you have extremely dry or sensitive skin. It may lead to dryness. Hence, you should use a hydrating face wash like PONDS DAILY FACE WASH. It consists of Vitamin E and glycerin and worked well for me.
2. For normal skin, usage in summer is better, but we should opt for another moisturizing face wash in winter as this one removes all the moisture from the skin.
Overall, Its a great product for oily skinned people, Guys who roam often in sun can carry this along with them daily. It is very handy and perfect to use. I am in love with this product after I started using this. It really prevents pimples and make skin clean and clear as it claims.

Operation of an AR-15 charging handle can be challenging in certain conditions. Large optics or wearing bulky gloves in cold weather can reduce the operator's ability to manipulate the latch. An oversize charging handle latch has a larger grasping area to allow fast and smooth operation of the charging handle. Installation requires removal of latch pins.

Odd Fellows, Rebekahs celebrate 100-year-plus anniversaries
April 3, 2003 – Construction of the new gymnasium at Colfax High School included a large crane to help lift beams into place last week. The crane was brought into town on four separate trucks and required assembly at the school construction site.
Having just signed on as the new executive director of the Colfax Area Chamber of Commerce, Brad Childs brings extensive experience in the areas of team building, eco-tourism, outdoor recreation and nonprofit management with him to the job.
Colfax Chase Osmond, a fifth-grader, was among top youth gymnasts in the state who recently participated in the elite state level competition that was held at the Redwood Empire Academy in Petaluma. Chase was among state meet participants after qualifying with a fourth place at the Northern California Zone Championships earlier in the season. Chase, 11, is a member of the Stellar Gymnastic Academy. His sister Casey 13, is also a gymnast and will be competing in the fall. The athletes' parents are Fred and Lori Osmond of Colfax.
April 7, 1993 – Summer school will not be held at Colfax Elementary School, trustees decided last week. The school board voted not to hold summer school due to uncertainty regarding the transportation from the current site to the new campus under construction. While some classrooms may be finished, District Superintendent Alan Shuttleworth said the board did not want to make a move until everything is done.
Colfax Odd Fellows No. 132 and Manzanita Rebekah Lodge No. 182 held a joint Homecoming at the Odd Fellows Temple in Colfax. Last year, the Odd Fellows Lodge celebrated its 125th anniversary and Manzanita Rebekah Lodge held special ceremonies celebrating its 100th anniversary. A special presentation of a Past Grand's jewel was made to Carol Rolufs by Edwin Young. Rolufs' wife, Erma, pinned on the jewel.
Congratulations to this week's Warrior Pride award winners. These students were recently recognized for their contributions to Weimar Hills School: Greg Zito, Johanna Ingman, James Mirabal, Matt Toro, Kevin McElhannon, Adam Dondro, Marla Reinig, Erica Sanchez, Casey Tatum, Lisa Johnson, John Rose, Jackie Denzler, Jamie Gibson, Misti Tucker, Laura Dossa, Kevin Brock, Lacey Luther, Aaron Perkins, Kim Gates, Beckie Rawlins, Nathan Brock, Kathy Sorenson, Jen Bacal, Emily Allen, Kyle Ray, Brougham Richey, Leah Harper, Anastacio Garcia, Ashleye Hylton, Brian Dahl, Josh Haynes, Jesse Dickinson, Landon Donley, Karlyn Bates, Jerica Moore, David Sipes, Nick Clark, Mindy Willet, Sarah Ingram, Amy Frizzle, Bethany Stryker, Kenny Root and Arthur Benedetti.
April 4, 1963 – Iowa Hill residents are happy these days now that their bridge has been completed. The bridge was damaged in the storm early in February and its closure has necessitated visitors and residents of Iowa Hill to make the trip to and from the old mining town by way of Shirttail Canyon.
The repair and restoration of state highways and bridges in Northern California damaged by severe storms of early 1963 will cost an estimated $4,051,000, including $465,000 for U.S. Highway 40 in Placer County.
Floyd and Thelma Murphy of the Emerald Egg Farm have added a nursery at their farm on Old Grass valley Road in North Colfax. They plan to stock all the most popular bedding plants, trees and ornamentals as well as garden supplies.
Dutch Flat News – The "Gold Rush Special" passengers from the Southern Pacific train in Colfax and ushered by the California-Nevada Railroad Historical Society in buses passed through Dutch Flat late Sunday afternoon. If the excursionists didn't see much else, they saw a rip-snorting snowstorm with March moving out like a lion. There was supposed to be 10 buses but only five were counted and they didn't tarry long, which was a disappointment for the passengers and Dutch Flat. For it was here that Theodore D. Judah and Dr. D.W. Strong subscribed the first money to build the Central Pacific Railroad. And these words are litany to a railroad historical society.
Margaret Roy was n Oakland last week to see her husband, who came in with his ship, and stayed with her sister, Mrs. Elsie Long, at El Sobrante. She brought back her aunt and Mrs. Flaxel's sister, Susan Jones, of Lodi, for a stay with Mrs. Flaxel. Margaret did not stay long here because it was snowing and she did not have any tire chains. An old Dutch Flater without tire chains!

|Green Continues to Grow
A Green World continues to emerge with environmentally-friendly products
If you ask people what constitutes a green product, you're likely to get a variety of answers. Building Green by Clarke Snell and Tim Callahan explains that the definition of green building is imprecise, but offers the interpretation that green building refers to how a building interacts with the planet's ecosystem. To meet the goal of sustainability and "greenness," the authors suggest that a building meet five requirements that: it feature low construction impact and resource efficiency, is long lasting, nontoxic and beautiful.

Because leather is a natural product, each piece will acquire its own distinct character and beauty over time. The Sleeper Sofa converts to a queen-sized bed that features a thick mattress with inner springs and a fall-away crossbar so you never feel the bar.

The conference was peppered with shows by The Delta Spirit, the Derek Trucks Band, Rhett Miller, The
Avett Brothers, Pete Yorn, Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears
and Citizen Cope, amongst many others. Energy was high, and stand-out performances reminded those in
attendance why non-comm radio exists: to put exceptional
musicans like these on the radar. "The
Avetts are just totally poised to break wide open," WXPN's assistant
GM of Programming Bruce Warren tells Paste. "They're such
entertaining musicians and they've got a new album coming which is just
fantastic that will build on their already impressive body of work.
Black Joe and his band were ridiculously fun and just killed it. Pete's
band was fantastic - he's been off the radar for a while, however with a
terrific new album on the way, he was psyched to be here and put on a
great show." (Check out recordings of each set, now available online.)Given today's ever-changing media terrain, it comes as no surprise that the conference largely dealt with questions about new technology. Breakout sessions about iPhone apps and music blogs followed a panel on Twitter and Facebook. And while stations are having to make constant adjustments to keep apace with these new marketing tools, a panel discussion with Moby, Citizen Cope and Sean Hoots of Hoots & Hellmouth confirmed that non-comm radio still holds an important role in this time of industry transition. Warren explains, "The bottom line is that non-comm is still the radio that matters a lot to artists and to listeners."After the most difficult fiscal year for commercial radio since the
dawn of the medium, member-supported stations like WXPN are maintaining a
relatively stable flow of support from listeners (though major
underwriters haven't been able to offer as much support as usual). "Even in the context of a dwindling
economy, non-comm stations are best leveraged to continue to build
passionate and loyal communities around music and artists," Warren says.To find Triple-A radio in your area, check out these conference attendees:Fordham's WFUVMinnesota Public Radio's The CurrentBloomington, Indiana's WFHBAkron, Ohio's WAPSTowson University's WTMDPittsburg's WYEPBoston's WERSBut don't fret if you can't find a station near you.

The European Union (E.U.) announced it will begin phasing out its liquid ban as it adds security screening equipment that can detect explosive liquids in passengers' bags. The ban is expected to be fully eliminated by mid-2013, sooner than previous estimates.
The New York Times reports that the first step toward ending the ban will involve duty-free liquids, and is expected to take effect next year. Duty-free liquids "purchased at duty-free shops outside the E.U. or aboard non-E.U. airlines would be allowed in hand luggage beginning next year, provided they are sealed within tamper-proof bags and screened before boarding."
So, if the technology exists, what's the likelihood of the U.S. following the E.U.'s lead and getting rid of the liquid ban? Well, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has floated the idea in the past, but hasn't offered any concrete plans to get rid of it....read more»
The Chicago Sun-Times is reporting that a merger between United and Continental could be finalized by Sunday. According to the Sun-Times, both airlines have agreed on a deal, and simply need their respective board of directors to approve it. United's board is expected to vote today, with Continental's slated to vote Sunday.
But approval is hardly a sure thing. Continental's board rejected a similar deal with United two years ago, citing concerns about United's financial stability. United is in much better shape now, which seems to make a vote of approval more likely. The Wall Street Journal adds that both carriers appear to be "back on track" after a disagreement over the price of the deal earlier this week....read more»
Passengers around the U.S. have bemoaned the loss of free meals on domestic flights. Continental, the last major carrier to offer food at no charge, will stop serving this fall. But is the food really something you'd want to eat? When asked what their worst airline meal ever had been, followers of SmarterTravel on Twitter responded with some pretty unappetizing dishes that seem to suggest airplane food should be permanently grounded.
France may be home to some of the best cuisine in the world, but their flagship carrier didn't impress @LandLopers, who said the worst meal he ever had was "an awful scallop creation on Air France. Copious amounts of brandy seemed to rectify the scallop disaster though." I think it's safe to say that mollusks don't belong in the sky. Like Proust and his madeleine, @bigtravellittle must have been transported back to middle school after eating "the mystery meat they call breaded chicken sandwich on Continental."
Other tweeters reveal that you can't always trust your eyes, as @mollsiebee found out on a Sri Lankan Airlines flight. Despite a fancy glass and deceivingly appetizing foods, her worst meal consisted of "dried out carrot puree in a brittle tortilla. I think the yellow thing was fruitcake? [It] tasted like hand sanitizer." ...read more»
A recent blog about National Passport Day prompted a question from smartwomentrav, who asked about other travel holidays. As the comments moderator, I love to honor reader requests, so I've compiled this list of days guaranteed to inspire you to pack your bags and hit the road.
Maybe you're looking for a reason to visit your favorite destination. These days are all about place, and include plenty of festivities to tempt travelers.
- Canada Day (July 1): Established in 1879 as Dominion Day, this holiday celebrates all things Canuck. If you're inspired to head north for maple syrup and French-accented fireworks, this is the best day to go.
- Alaska Day (October 18): Not to be outdone by its neighbor, Alaska celebrates the purchase of the territory by the United States. Events range from scavenger hunts to fish pie luncheons, making this a perfect time to explore Seward's Folly.
- Boston Tea Party (December 16): Be a part of history in Boston during the annual reenactment of the famous act of defiance. After the fun, be sure to explore the city's Freedom Trail and other attractions.
If you don't have a specific destination in mind, there's still plenty of inspiration to explore the great outdoors and city sidewalks. ...read more»
The Department of Transportation's (DOT) long-awaited tarmac delay rules take effect today, after months of back-and-forth debate. In fact, so much has been said about the impact of these regulations that it's probably worth reviewing what they actually entail.
Here are the highlights from the DOT's rules:
- Three-hour limit on domestic tarmac delays: "For domestic flights, the air carrier will not permit an aircraft to remain on the tarmac for more than three hours" unless the pilot-in-command determines there is a safety-related or security-related impediment to deplaning passengers (e.g., weather, air traffic control, a directive from an appropriate government agency, etc.), or Air Traffic Control advises the pilot-in-command that returning to the gate or permitting passengers to disembark elsewhere would significantly disrupt airport operations."
- Limit (to be determined) on international tarmac delays: "For international flights that depart from or arrive at a U.S. airport, an assurance that the air carrier will not permit an aircraft to remain on the tarmac for more than a set number of hours, as determined by the carrier in its plan, before allowing passengers to deplane, unless the pilot-in-command determines there is a safety-related or security-related reason precluding the aircraft from doing so, or Air Traffic Control advises the pilot-in-command that returning to the gate or permitting passengers to disembark elsewhere would significantly disrupt airport operations."
- Adequate food, water, and functioning bathrooms: "For all flights, an assurance that the air carrier will provide adequate food and potable water no later than two hours after the aircraft leaves the gate (in the case of a departure) or touches down (in the case of an arrival) if the aircraft remains on the tarmac, unless the pilot-in-command determines that safety or security requirements preclude such service" and "for all flights, an assurance of operable lavatory facilities, as well as adequate medical attention if needed, while the aircraft remains on the tarmac."
- Actual punishment: "Failure to do any of the above would be considered an unfair and deceptive practice ... and [would be] subject to enforcement action, which could result in an order to cease and desist as well as the imposition of civil penalties." Airlines would be fined $27,500 per passenger for each violation of the three-hour limit.
So, starting today, planes will be forced to return to the gate if a tarmac delay reaches or approaches the three-hour mark, lest the airline pay a severe penalty....read more»
Southwest and JetBlue announced a slew of new routes coming later this year.
For Southwest, the new service centers on Phoenix. The carrier will add two daily nonstop flights between Sky Harbor Airport and Minneapolis, and one daily nonstop to Boston. Minneapolis service starts at an introductory price of $99 each way, and begins August 15. Southwest hasn't announced fares for the Boston route, which debuts September 7.
Both Boston and Minneapolis joined Southwest's route network in 2009, and the airline has grown service quickly at each. With the addition of Phoenix service in Boston, the airline will have doubled its presence there since launching flights in August.
For its part, JetBlue will begin brand new service at Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C....read more»

The Department of Transportation (DOT) hit Southwest with a $200,000 fine for improper procedures related to involuntary bumping.
Here's what happened: Airlines are allowed to overbook because passengers sometimes fail to show up. In the event that everyone shows up, airlines are required to ask for volunteers to give up their seats. If no one volunteers, the airline will involuntarily bump as many passengers as it needs. These passengers are supposed to receive written notification of why they were bumped, and up to $800 in compensation.
It's that last detail that got Southwest into trouble....read more»
Responding to a series of headline-grabbing incidents involving so-called "cockpit distractions," the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a "guidance" memo for cockpit safety. The stated purpose of the memo is to "emphasize to crewmembers and operators that engaging in tasks not directly related to required flight duties, including using personal electronic devices (PED), constitutes a safety risk."
But—is a memo such as this really necessary?
Here are some more points from the memo:
- Describing the incidents that led to the memo: "In one instance, two pilots were using their laptop computers during cruise and lost situational awareness, leading to a 150 mile fly-by of destination. In another instance, a pilot was texting after the aircraft pushed back from the gate and before the take-off sequence. In still another instance, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector in the jump seat overheard a crewmember's mobile phone ring during the takeoff roll."
- The FAA's rationale: "While PEDs can be valuable tools in aviation operations, crewmembers cannot permit PEDs to distract them from focusing on duties and responsibilities related to the flight. Regulations regarding sterile flight decks prohibit crewmembers from performing any duties not relating to the safe operation of the aircraft during critical phases of flight. At other phases of flight, crewmembers must avoid becoming distracted by any task not related to the safe operation of the flight, whether it involves use of a PED or not. Maintaining the public trust is both a personal responsibility and professional requirement."
- The FAA's recommendation: "Operators should create a safety culture that clearly establishes guidance, expectations and requirements to control cockpit distractions, including use of PEDs, during flight operations. Directors of Operations and Directors of Safety should review and reinforce these policies and guidance. Directors of training should review and reinforce crew training on this subject. Crewmembers should evaluate their personal practices, including those regarding the use of PEDs, to ensure they do not distract from or interfere with duties and responsibilities related to the flight."
In his blog, Department of Transportation (DOT) Secretary Ray LaHood adds, "The flying public can't have it. They expect their pilots to focus on flying safely at all times. And rightly so ... Our aviation system has a terrific safety record, but we can only maintain that record by minimizing risk wherever possible, including in the cockpit."...read more»
Consolidation has lately been the domain of the airline industry, but today's big news comes from the world of car rentals. Hertz has bought the Dollar-Thrifty Automotive Group, which owns and runs Dollar Rent-a-Car and Thrifty Car Rental. The deal expands Hertz' global reach, as the deal will boost its number of worldwide locations to roughly 9,800.
For consumers, there's a lot to ponder here. There are no details yet regarding reward programs for any of the agencies involved, though presumably Hertz will inherit these programs and their members. The Tulsa World reports that Hertz will likely retain the Dollar and Thrifty names in some form. The Dollar-Thrifty Group is based in Tulsa.
More importantly, perhaps, is the matter of car rental rates....read more»

The Sun Herald, Amanda McCoy, Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Though weakening slightly, Tropical Storm Karen remained poised Friday to become the first named storm to hit the U.S. in what has been a relatively quiet hurricane season.
National Hurricane Center forecasters expect Karen to be near the central Gulf Coast on Saturday, likely as a weak hurricane or tropical storm. From a tiny, vulnerable island off the Louisiana coast to the beaches of the Florida Panhandle, Gulf Coast residents prepared Friday for a possible hit from the storm.
A hurricane watch was in effect for Grand Isle, La., to west of Destin, Fla. A tropical storm warning is in effect for Morgan City, La., to the mouth of the Pearl River.
The center said late Friday morning that Karen was about 250 miles (405 kilometers) south-southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River and 290 miles (465 kilometers) south-southeast of Morgan City, La. It's moving north-northwest at 10 mph (17 kph). Maximum sustained winds were 50 mph (85 kph).
Karen is expected to produce rainfall of 3 to 6 inches through Sunday night, with isolated totals up to 10 inches possible.
In Alabama, safety workers Thursday hoisted double red flags at Gulf Shores because of treacherous rip currents. Lifeguard stands were moved off the beach to higher ground. Still, no evacuations were planned. The Bayfest music festival was set to begin Friday, and organizers said the show — with a lineup including the Zac Brown Band and R.Kelly — would go on as much as possible.
In Mississippi, Gov. Phil Bryant declared a state of emergency, urging residents to prepare. State Emergency Management Agency Director Robert Latham said local schools will decide whether to play football games. He said the southern part of the state could have tropical storm-force winds by late Friday.
"I know that Friday night football in the South is a big thing, but I don't think anybody wants to risk a life because of the potential winds," Latham said.
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal also declared a state of emergency, citing the possibility of high winds, heavy rain and tides. Florida Gov. Rick Scott declared an emergency for 18 counties.
Traffic at the mouth of the Mississippi River was stopped Friday morning in advance of the storm.
The Army Corps of Engineers said it was closing a structure intended to keep storm surge out of the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal in Louisiana — known locally as the Industrial Canal — where levee breaches during Hurricane Katrina led to catastrophic flooding in 2005.
Mayor David Camardelle of Grand Isle, La., an inhabited barrier island and tourist town about 60 miles south of New Orleans, called for voluntary evacuations as he declared an emergency Thursday afternoon.
Louisiana officials were taking precautions while noting that forecasts show the storm veering to the east. The storm track had it likely brushing the southeastern tip of the state before heading toward the Alabama-Florida coast. And it was moving faster than last year's Hurricane Isaac, a weak storm that stalled over the area and caused widespread flooding.
"It should make that fork right and move out very, very quickly," said Jerry Sneed, head of New Orleans' emergency preparedness office.
Offshore, at least two oil companies said they were evacuating non-essential personnel and securing rigs and platforms.
In Washington, the White House said the Federal Emergency Management Agency was recalling some workers furloughed due to the government shutdown to prepare for the storm.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said President Barack Obama was being updated about the storm. He said Obama directed his team to ensure staffing and resources are available to respond to the storm.

Prosecutors will ask Monday that a retired Air Force sergeant suspected of killing a Montana girl in 1988 be returned to Great Falls to face formal charges of deliberate murder and tampering with evidence.
Sixty-two-year-old Wilfred "Bill" Morrisey stands accused in the shooting death of Dolana Clark, who disappeared in August of that year. A hunter discovered the body of the nine-year-old girl in the Little Belt Mountains 14 months later.
Police believe Clark rode her bicycle to Morrisey's house the day she disappeared to ask him for money she needed to buy a Siamese cat.
Morrisey left town three months after the girl disappeared and moved to Weston, a one-road town in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristos. Investigators only recently caught up with Morrisey after authorities decided last month to take a fresh look at the case.

OSCARS When the little-heard song "Alone Yet Not Alone" from the barely-seen movie of the same name was nominated for an Oscar a couple weeks ago, just about everyone was left scratching their heads. The nomination immediately became tinged with scandal when it was revealed that the song's composer, Bruce Broughton, happened to be a former governor of the music branch of the Academy and a current member of the prestigious organization's executive committee. Broughton admitted to EW that he "wrote some people" and asked them to consider the song because he was afraid it would get overlooked, but said that he didn't do anything wrong by doing so.
Apparently, the Academy did not share Broughton's take on the events that led to the nomination because they have removed the song from consideration. In a statement, Cheryl Boone Isaacs, president of the Academy, said, "No matter how well-intentioned the communication, using one's position as a former governor and current executive committee member to personally promote one's own Oscar submission creates the appearance of an unfair advantage." The Academy will not replace the song with another nominee.
PINE Star Trek and Jack Ryan star Chris Pine has signed on to star in David Gordon Green's new thriller, The Line, according to THR. Written by Sang Kyu Kim (The Walking Dead), the movie centers around a grieving patrol agent (Pine) who goes on the run to protect a 10-year-old child orphaned by criminal cartel violence. Rory Aitken and Ben Pugh (Welcome to the Punch) are producing the project.
BIEBERVERSE Hot on the heels of his DUI arrest in Miami, 19-year-old pop star Justin Bieber has been arrested in Toronto on one count of assault in the beating of a Toronto limo driver last December. Bieber surrendered himself to authorities amidst a crush of rabid fans and paparrazi. Police allege Bieber was a member of a party picked up by limousine from a nightclub in the early morning hours of Dec. 30. En route to a hotel, an altercation broke out inside the limo and one passenger struck the driver in the back of the head. Bieber's attorney maintains his client is innocent.
No stranger to rebellious teenage pop stars, "Achy Breaky" crooner Billy Ray Cyrus offered to help Bieber through his tough times. Cyrus told Access Hollywood that Bieber needs to "chill out" and "get back to life," even inviting the teen idol down to Tennessee to hang out with him: "Let's go up to the teepee, build a fire, step away and just, you know, maybe take a break for a little bit, just think about what's important."
TV The CW recently picked up The Flash starring Grant Gustin and now the network has ordered up a pilot adaptation for another DC Comics property: iZombie. Created by writer Chris Roberson and artist Michael Allred, iZombie was first published by DC Comics's Vertigo imprint in 2010. In the comic book, Gwen Dylan is a revenant, an animated corpse, who works as a gravedigger so that she has access to brains, which she needs to consume regularly to retain her memories. In the planned series, Gwen will be a medical student who attempts to solve unsolved homicides. Sort of a medical drama-meets-cop show-meets-zombie thrill ride. Here's the synopsis from EW:
FASHION Quirky actress and musician Zooey Deschanel has teamed up with Tommy Hilfiger on a new capsule collection that reflects her love of vintage clothing. Hilfiger raved about his new muse, telling WWD that "her sense of humor, her sophistication" remind him of Audrey Hepburn. "They are Sixties-inspired short dresses," Hilfiger said. "There is a lot of red, white and blue, but done in a Zooey way with interesting detail and flirty fabrics." The collection will include sixteen dresses, eyeliner and bangs not included.
ALIVE Though Stuart Beattie's fantasy-action movie I, Frankenstein was DOA in its debut in the States — opening in 6th place, with a take of just $8.3 million — it's alive and kicking in Eastern Europe, taking the top spot at box offices in Russia, Ukraine, Romania and Bulgaria. It also performed well in Germany, Brazil and Mexico. Lakeshore Entertainment will likely earn back its money on this one, but plans for I, Frankenstein to launch a Underworld-esque franchise pretty far-fetched.

) and restored during this complex, open surgery.
Microvascular occlusion often treats a brain aneurysm that has ruptured and caused damage to the artery. It will not fix damaged areas of the brain, but it can improve quality of life by stopping bleeding.
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
Discuss these risks with your doctor before the surgery.
Your appointment before the surgery may include:
Before your procedure:

General anesthesia
will be used. It will block any pain and keep you asleep through the surgery.
The nurses and doctors will connect you to monitors to watch your blood pressure, heart rate, and pulse during the procedure. A catheter will be inserted to collect urine.
An IV will be placed in your arm for sedation and anesthesia. The nurse will shave an area of your head.
The doctor will perform a craniotomy, removing a small section of the skull to access the brain. X-rays and microscopic viewing will help the doctor find the artery leading to the aneurysm. The doctor will clamp off the artery. A bypass procedure (re-routing blood vessels toward healthy areas of the brain) may also be done.
The section of skull is replaced and the scalp is stitched back into place.
When the procedure is done, the catheter and IV will be removed. You will need to lie still for 6-8 hours or more. You will stay in the ICU, often for a day. Your blood pressure and other vitals will be monitored closely. You will be given medication for pain or other symptoms.
3-5 hours or more
Anesthesia will prevent pain during surgery. Pain and discomfort after the procedure can be managed with medications.
This complex procedure is done in a hospital setting. The usual length of stay is 4-6 days. Your doctor may choose to keep you longer if complications arise.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection, such as:
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chance of infection, such as:
When you get home, you may have to adjust your activity level while you recover. This may take 3-6 weeks. Home care may include:

CBA Seniors Feted at Awards Night
Contact: Gina Vergel
(212) 636-7175
The College of Business Administration (CBA) honored its most accomplished seniors on May 14 at the annual CBA Awards Night.
CBA Seniors Amy E. Cretella, the valedictorian, and Adrienne Rukavina, the salutatorian of the Class of 2009.

Some 99 prizes were awarded at the ceremony, which took place at Keating Hall. Students received medals in the areas of accounting, finance, management, entrepreneurship and marketing. They were recognized for their excellence in academic, community and humanitarian endeavors, and for their leadership skills.
Also feted were class valedictorian Amy E. Cretella and salutatorian Adrienne Rukavina, both who looked back fondly on their four years at Fordham.
"From freshman to seniors, we have gone through our own transformation," Cretella said. "We have gained academic excellence, strength of character, and spiritual enrichment from our education here at Fordham, whose Jesuit ideals have guided our intellectual, moral and religious growth."
Rukavina reminded her fellow students that on Commencement day, Saturday, May 16, their lives will change.
"In two days, we have to get full-time jobs, pay our own bills and stop relying on our parents," Rukavina said, as many in the packed auditorium broke out in laughter and applause.
"We have spent the last four years working extremely hard," she continued. "So as we celebrate the culmination of all we have worked for, we know that nothing worth having ever comes easy. But I graduate knowing that the time we spent at Fordham has been nothing short of legendary."
The CBA Alumnus of the Year Award was presented to Robert P. Gach (CBA '80), industry managing director of global capital markets for Accenture. The CBA Dean's Awards for Teaching Excellence were given to Benjamin Cole, Ph.D., assistant professor of management systems; and Adjunct Professor Nancy McCarthy, who serves as assistant dean and adviser to seniors.
CBA Dean Donna Rapaccioli addressed the gathering of 300 students, faculty, friends and family, saying that the Class of 2009 will always be special to her because they were incoming freshmen the year she became dean.
"You truly are an extraordinary group," she said to the students, who will graduate at a trying time in the business world. "I want to talk to you about two lessons you probably learned in kindergarten: challenges can create opportunities and opportunities can create success."
Rapaccioli told the seniors that they will face challenges, but they will also get opportunities, which they must pursue.
Donna Rapaccioli, Ph.D., dean of CBA, prepares to lead the seniors into the auditorium at Keating Hall at CBA Awards Night. The bagpiper set the stage for the event.
"Some of you may be wondering how you know which opportunities to seize. In fact, some of you may be sitting there—with the way the economy is—and wondering if you ever will have an opportunity to seize," she said. "I assure you, you will. You will have many opportunities.
"So when it is before you, step back and use what you learned at Fordham about self awareness, about embracing change, and this will help you to discern which opportunities to pursue."
Special recognition was given to the 166 students who completed CBA's G.L.O.B.E. Program, designed to help students become ethical global business leaders. The program started in 1991 with one student.
Those who participated in the CBA Honors Thesis Program also were lauded. Thesis topics included subjects such as "Hedge Funds and Mortgage Crisis" and "Investment Sub-Styles Based on Individual Hedge Funds' Investment Strategy."
Patricia Ramsey, Ph.D., co-director of the CBA Honors Thesis Program, said she wished for the graduating seniors to live "useful and happy" lives.
"One of the essential parts of living a happy life is never ever taking yourself so seriously, or the world so seriously, that you forget whimsy," Ramsey said. "Life is not all serious, and I wish each and every one of you a happy life."
Founded in 1841, Fordham is the Jesuit University of New York, offering exceptional education distinguished by the Jesuit tradition to approximately 14,700 students in its four undergraduate colleges and its six graduate and professional schools. It has residential campuses in the Bronx and Manhattan, a campus in Westchester, and the Louis Calder Center Biological Field Station in Armonk, N.Y.

Alanis Morissette (Nov 21st, 2011)
Alanis Morissette stays luxe and 'lax with a loose fishtail braid.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Gather hair at the nape of your neck and bring the ponytail (don't secure it with a hair tie) over one shoulder.
Step 2: To create the fishtail braid, separate the pony into two equal sections. Then, bring a chunk of hair from the outside of the left section (preferably from underneath the lock) into the inside of the right section.
Step 3: Repeat on the other side, by bringing a chunk of hair from the outer right section across into the inner left section. Do this until you have reached the ends of your hair.
Step 4: Secure the end of the braid with an elastic band.

Three of my last batch of swordtail fry are missing. I saw two of them lying around at the bottom of the tank earlier today. I think I may be feeding them too much. Looks like there is alot of food and/or crap all over the rocks. I changed almost half of their water today, in case it was getting nasty. The 5-one month old swords, the two and a half week old molly, and the other one and a half week old sword seem fine. What should I do, if anything? Besides cut back on the amount of food I was giving them at a time. Would putting a pleco in with them help? Do they eat extra food of the bottom or would he eat them?
I would not trust a pleco with any very young swordtail or similar small fry. A pleco is not the peaceful vegetarian that they are often thought to be.
I agree on the Pleco note.
But to my understanding WCs should be preformed daily on fry tanks and the fry should be fed smaller amounts 3-4 times per day for best results.....thats what I've read, never kept a fry only tank myself though.
Thank you for your input. Not discounting what I said earlier, but I wonder if it could have anything to do with them being born only 2 and half weeks after the first batch. Is it possible they were born premature b/c of the warm weather here of late. I've tried to keep the water temps below 80, but hadn't suceeded 100%.
i would take the pleco out :)
I never put him in. All the last batch disappeared/died. The older five and the molly are still fine though. I wonder if they were premature. There was only 2 and a half weeks between them and the others. Same mom.

Welcome! I love the colour palette on those.
I found this site by luck and I find it very interesting.
I'm French, 42 year old, and I like drawing. You can see, in attachments, an example of gaming map that I made for a MMORPG.
I use mainly open-source software like The Gimp and Inkscape.

An early draft of this paper was presented at a colloquium on Thomas Pogge's World Poverty and Human Rights held at the University of St. Andrews. I am grateful to Liz Ashford for organizing this event, and to the participants for their useful comments. I would also like to thank Christian Barry, Thomas Pogge, and my colleagues at the University of Stirling for helpful criticisms.

In World Poverty and Human Rights, Thomas Pogge presents a range of attractive policy proposals-limiting the international resource and borrowing privileges, decentralizing sovereignty, and introducing a "global resources dividend"-aimed at remedying the poverty and suffering generated by the global economic order. These proposals could be motivated as a response to positive duties to assist the global poor, or they could be justified on consequentialist grounds as likely to promote collective welfare. Perhaps they could even be justified on virtue-theoretic grounds as proposals that a just or benevolent person would endorse. But Pogge presents them as a response to the violation of negative duties; this makes the need for such remedial policies especially morally urgent-on a par with the obligations of killers to take measures to stop killing. In this essay, I focus on the claim that responsibility for world poverty should be conceived in terms of a violation of negative duties. I follow Pogge in distinguishing two questions (p. 134): What kind of duties (positive or purely negative?) would we be subject to in a just global society where everyone fulfilled their duty and there was no significant risk of injustice? And what kind of duties (positive or purely negative?) do we face given that our global society falls short of the just society? I tackle these questions in reverse order below. I argue, in contrast to Pogge, that positive duties are relevant to our answers to both questions…

Insurance Quotes
Insure.com Examines Why It's Cheaper to be Married
Insure.com, Inc. (ticker: NSUR, exchange: NASDAQ) News Release - 2/11/2009
Insure.com Examines Why It's Cheaper to be Married
DARIEN, Illinois (February 11, 2009) -- Did you know that if you're married, you're probably saving money right now on insurance? In addition, you may be able to garner additional savings if you know where to look.
Car insurance: Your car insurance company has likely already used your marital status in calculating your premium, along with your age, driving record, where you live and other factors. It's a savings that most married people don't even know they're getting, and it's most significant for young married drivers.
Life insurance: You won't find rates based on marital status when you buy life insurance, but there are still ways couples can save together on life insurance.
It's possible to insure both a husband and wife under one life insurance policy at a price that's cheaper than insuring them both separately. Under a survivorship (also called second-to-die) policy, a husband and wife are insured together and the benefit is paid after the death of both. This kind of policy is commonly used by couples who want to provide funds for their heirs to pay sizeable estate taxes.
Premiums for survivorship life policies are almost always less expensive than if the same two people purchased separate permanent life policies.
In addition, a small number of life insurance companies offer a discount when two people in the same household buy policies.
Long-term care insurance: If you're shopping for long-term care (LTC) insurance, ask your agent about a couples discount. Almost all LTC policies provide discounts for married couples -- some by as much as 40 percent.
