Now the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has been contained, few in the media are delving into the severity of its continued impact on the planetary ecosphere. But mushroom expert, author and Bioneer, Paul Stamets, has a viable solution for the long-term clean-up procedure. Recently named as one of the '50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Your World', he has made extraordinary discoveries about how the humble mushroom could be the key.
Fungi were the first life forms to inhabit the land 1.3 billion years ago; 600 million years before plants evolved. After asteroid impacts darkened the skies, de-greened the Earth and caused mass extinctions 65 million years back, the only organisms to survive were the ones that 'paired up' with fungi and learnt how to
be co-dependent.
"It's time for another re-greening," Paul thinks, "as Earth recoils from the on-going catastrophes inflicted by our species." And cleaning up after oil spills, pollution, storm damage, floods and volcanic clouds is just another day at the office for fungi. It's a process he has called mycoremediation and here's how it works.
Beneath the fruit – or mushroom as we call it – fungal roots, known as Mycelia, spread outwards to create a vast mat of underground cells that permeate the soil. Now known to be the largest biological entities on the planet, a single colony can cover an area equal to 1,665 football fields and travel several inches a day. A massive network of whispering spaghetti, these 'neurological' tendrils intersect with neighbouring colonies and even fuse with the roots of other species to share water, food and communicate vital information.
Paul explains:
"Mycelia are the Earth's natural internet – the essential wiring of the Gaian consciousness. The creation of the computer internet is merely an extension of a successful biological model that has evolved over billions of years."
Once the Mycelium has taken root, it gets to work as a super-filter, producing enzymes and acids that break down the components of woody plants. But importantly, these same enzymes are excellent at disintegrating hydrocarbons – the base structure of all oils, petroleum products, pesticides and pollutants.
Through a series of trials, Paul's team at Battelle Laboratories, in the US, made some astonishing findings. Soil that had been heavily contaminated with oil and hydrocarbons was inoculated with Oyster mushroom spawn. After four weeks, it was bursting with fruit, while 99% of the hydrocarbons had been destroyed. Only non-toxic components remained and even the mushrooms themselves revealed no traces
of petroleum.
"And then came another startling revelation," Paul says. "As the mushrooms rotted, flies arrived. The flies laid eggs, which became larvae. The larvae, in turn, attracted birds, who apparently brought in seeds. Soon it was an oasis, teeming with life!"
Amazingly, Paul's team also found that Oyster mushrooms are tolerant to salt water. Mixed with straw, which will also absorb oil, and encased in biodegradable hemp-socks that are called MycoBooms, the Mycelium is able to colonize and get to work underwater. Myceliated straw and woodchip tubes could also be placed at the shoreline to capture and break down the incoming hydrocarbons. Meanwhile, the mushrooms sprout to create floating gardens; gnats and flies gather, and fish, birds, bats and insects benefit from the emerging food source.
Ahead of the game, back in 1994, Paul proposed that world governments set up Mycological Response Teams who could be deployed after events, such as hurricanes and oil spills.
Mycoremediation centres could be hubs of learning; places to cross-educate others and build central bodies of knowledge for our future generations. In time, world leaders, policy makers, scientists, students and citizens would have all of the Mycoremediation tools necessary to address every single environmental event.
During his 30 years working with fungi, Paul has also made other significant discoveries. Mycelium can protect human blood cells from major infections, such as smallpox, hepatitis B, influenza, HIV and various strains of cancer. Another type of fungi consumes and effectively eliminates the bacteria E. coli, while one species – and the research is currently classified by the Department of Defence – will destroy biological and chemical warfare agents; especially VX, the same deadly nerve gas that Saddam Hussein was accused of using in the Gulf War.
"The time to act is now," Paul says. "Waiting for science and society to wake up to the importance of these ancient old growth fungi is perilously slow and also narrow in vision… But an unfortunate circumstance we face," he continues, "is that mycology is poorly funded in a time of intense need. We need to educate our friends, family and policy makers about these solutions and bring local leaders up to speed."
In order to appreciate the many benefits of mycotechnology, including the ones not yet discovered, Paul believes we need to adopt a 'mycelial perspective' of the world and wholly understand how it is interconnected with every living being on the planet.
"Your job," he tells us, "is to become embedded into the mind-set of Mycelium and to run with it… Earth is calling out to us, and we need to listen."

here you can learn how to make spherical wooden horns, explained step by step ( thanks for John Haskin for his precious informations ) :http://www.flickr.com/photos/7808268@N07/
if you decide to make a pair, i can email you corel graph's for tractrix horns with 88cm diameter ( 150hz ) and 58cm ( 250hz ) horns.
John Hasquin does not recommend to make them bigger than with 88cm diameter :
" I would advise you not to make a horn any bigger than 88cm mouth. The 95cm mouth horn is too big and you will not be able to get good high frequency out of it. A 95cm mouth horn with 10cm throat will be about 92cm deep. For a horn that is between 80cm to 73cm deep, you will need a very efficient speaker like the Fane Studio 8M or the Ciare 8.5 Nd MR " .
If you do not have a lathe, you can use a file, and make them manually, as explained at vincent.brient site: http://vincent.brient.free.fr/pav_ronds.htm

Professor Probes Complexity of International Criminal Court
A global community may need international courts, but it is difficult for those justice systems to remain free from power influences, according to research by David Bosco, assistant professor of international politics and author of a new book about the International Criminal Court.
"To be an ethical global community that upholds certain standards, we need to have a system of international justice," Bosco said.
"What interested me was the question of how one goes about implementing an international justice system when there are disparities between states and power politics and power realities."
Bosco, who writes the Multilateralist blog for Foreign Policy, interviewed more than one hundred diplomats, court officials and senior government officers – both on and off the record – during his three years of research for Rough Justice: The International Criminal Court in a World of Power Politics, published by Oxford University Press. In particular, he was curious about the court's relationship with non-members, including the United States, China, India, and Russia.
"The United States under the Bush administration was very hostile to the court. I think there was hope the court could be killed in the cradle," Bosco said. "But over the past decade the United States has accommodated itself to the court, realizing it's an institution that's going to be here."
By way of example, he noted that when the court was asked to investigate criminal acts alleged during the war in Darfur, the United States made no effort to block the move.
"The United States didn't want to be seen as seeming to oppose international justice," Bosco said. "You've seen a real evolution that shows the power, not just of the court itself but of the idea of justice."
At the same time, he said the International Criminal Court has worked to forge good relationships with non-member states.
"One of the ways they've done that is by being extremely careful about taking on cases or investigations that get close to the strategic interests of major powers," he explained. "Instead, every single investigation has been in Africa. The court has avoided situations like Afghanistan, Palestine, and the Russia-Georgia conflict.
"Of course, officials don't say this is a strategy, but the evidence is very strong," added Bosco, who is also the author of Five to Rule Them All: The UN Security Council and the Making of the Modern World, a history of the UN Security Council.

This image shows chromosome abnormalities in reprogrammed cells in which SIRT1 protein has been removed (in red). [Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncologicas]
Regenerative medicine—the promise of rejuvenating or replacing damaged or diseased tissues—will most likely rely on the use of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, which are obtained when adult cells are essentially thrown into evolutionary reverse. This abrupt change can be hard on cells, which may suffer chromosomal abnormalities and DNA damage.
And so the bright vistas of regenerative medicine are shadowed by a stubborn cloud—the uncertainty that stem cells that are derived from adult cells are really safe. There is, however, a silver lining: Telomeres, the structures that protect the ends of chromosomes, increase in length during cell reprogramming. Ordinarily they shorten over time.
The increase in telomere length during reprogramming is important because it allows stem cells to acquire the immortality that characterizes them. If telomere lengthening were better understood, scientists might find ways to enhance cellular processes that preserve genome integrity and ensure the healthy functioning of stem cells. That, at least, was the reasoning behind a recent study conducted by researchers at the Spanish National Cancer Research Center (CNIO).
These researchers, who represented the CNIO's Telomeres and Telomerase Group and Transgenic Mice Core Unit, published their findings April 17 in Stem Cell Reports, in an article entitled "SIRT1 Is Necessary for Proficient Telomere Elongation and Genomic Stability of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells."
As the title indicates, the researchers focused on the role of SIRT1, a protein of the sirtuin family that is involved in the maintenance of telomeres, genomic stability, and DNA damage response. SIRT1, the researchers were aware, occurs in higher amounts in embryonic stem cells. In addition, SIRT1 is downregulated upon differentiation. And so the researchers were curious to learn whether the rise in SIRT1 during cellular reprogramming and its subsequent fall, upon differentiation, were more than coincidental. That is, the researchers wanted to know how, exactly, SIRT1 was implicated in pluripotency.
Employing SIRT1-depleted mouse models and cell cultures as research tools, the CNIO research team discovered that SIRT1 is necessary for reprogramming to occur correctly and safely. "We observed cell reprogramming in the absence of SIRT1, but over time the produced iPS cells lengthen telomeres less efficiently and suffer from chromosome aberrations and DNA damage," said María Luigia De Bonis, a postdoctoral researcher of the Telomeres and Telomerase Group. "SIRT1 helps iPS cells to remain healthy."
In their article, the authors described the protective effect of SIRT1 as follows: "We find that SIRT1 is required for efficient postreprogramming telomere elongation, and that this effect is mediated by a c-MYC-dependent regulation of the mTert gene. We further demonstrate that SIRT1-deficient iPSCs accumulate chromosomal aberrations and show a derepression of telomeric heterochromatin. Finally, SIRT1-deficient iPSCs form larger teratomas that are poorly differentiated, highlighting a role for SIRT1 in exit from pluripotency."
Ultimately, the researchers concluded that SIRT1 deacetylase has a role in "the maintenance of 'good-quality' iPSCs, with proper telomere elongation, TERRA transcription, telomeric chromatin remodeling, and genome integrity. (According to the researchers, TERRAS, or TelRNAs, are noncoding transcripts that closely associate with telomeres and negatively regulate telomerase activity in vitro.) With respect to the significance of their work, the researchers indicated that understanding the molecular mechanisms such as those evidenced by SIRT1 in established iPSC lines is "critical to the advance of iPSC technology in regenerative medicine."

|Vandals third at WAC
MESA, Ariz. - The University of Idaho women's golf team gained ground on the leaders at the Club Glove Western Athletic Conference Championship Tournament but it wasn't quite enough has the Vandals fell just shy and wound up third.
"It's frustrating to lose by two strokes, even knowing that we gave it our best effort," said coach Lisa Johnson, who was honored as the league's Coach of the Year, while sophomore Kayla Mortellaro earned the WAC Player of the Year award.
"We handled the tough weather conditions on the back nine better than most teams and shot the low round of the lead groups today. I applaud our team for playing hard until the end. All the credit goes to Hawai'i and San Jose for out-playing us over 54 holes."
The Vandals trailed leader - and eventual champion- San Jose State by five strokes heading into the final 18 holes Wednesday. They closed to within one at one point during the round but couldn't quite push to the top.
Mortellaro, the second-day leader, wound up in a tie with teammate Amanda Jacobs for third. Both had 54-hole total 225 with Mortellaro closing with a 78 and Jacobs a 77. Both earned first-team all-WAC honors, while sophomore Teo Poplawski was a second-team selection after finishing 16th. A closing round 74 gave her a 54-hole 234. Also for the Vandals, Annika Karlsson was tied for 24th at 240 and Frida Nilsson tied for o29th with a 243.
"I couldn't be more proud of Kayla," Johnson said. "She played phenomenal golf during the regular season and was far and away the best player in the WAC all year. Her achievement is testament to her hard work, focus and consistency as a player.
"It's wonderful to see Amanda finish strongly at the WAC Championship and earn first-team honors. She has been a strong leader and consistent golfer during her entire four years at Idaho. Teo is very deserving of second-team honors. She contributed many solid rounds of golf this year, and she recorded one of the best rounds during the final round of WAC."
The Vandals now await the NCAA selection committee's regional choices.
"We are hopeful for an opportunity to compete at the NCAA Regional tournament in May," Johnson said. "We will build off our experiences at WAC in preparation."

text: As rhythm & blues innovators with an exquisite vocal blend, the Moonglows were among the finest black harmony groups of the Fifties. They served to bridge the smoother approach of groups like the Ink Spots and the Mills Brothers with the earthier sounds of rock and roll. The Moonglows, at least part of whose career found them in league with deejay Alan Freed, heralded the revolution that was to come on the strength of such doo-wop singles as "Sincerely" and "See Saw," which were all sizable hits on both the pop and R&B charts in the mid-Fifties.

Teatro Dell'Arte,Milan, Italy, 1964
Written in 1963 by Miles Davis and pianist Victor Feldman, "Joshua" has since become a jazz standard. It was first featured on the album "Seven Steps to Heaven" and would subsequently be covered by Joe Henderson and Ben Webster.
Miles Davis, and his quintet, would keep performing "Joshua" regularly for the next decade. By the early '60s Davis was finished putting standards on his own albums, veering toward originality for the rest of his career.

Nice Jeans
By Jeanne
from West Trenton, New JErsey
NYDJs always look, feel and fit great. However, after washing I have always experienced a problem even when following the washing instructions. I was told by a woman in customer service instead of washing to put them in the freezer for two hours. I wish NYDJ would have not switched to putting lycra or spandex in their pants because they do not wash well. Because I am so short and petite and like the way they fit, I am trying again. I may not wash them. You can see how much I like them because I keep trying.
Love These Jeans!

Very slimming effect. So comfortable. Love the back pockets. Perfect length. I am 5'2". Ordered the 4P.

Gardening Articles: Care :: Plant Care Techniques
Organic Matters (page 4 of 4)
by Carrie Chalmers
Testing Your Soil's Health
Laboratories now use the knowledge of the dynamic qualities of soil fertility and organic matter described here in their tests. Woods End Laboratory stresses the living nature of the soil and the value of tests to gauge soil health. Tests measure respiration in soil and compost samples, which indicates the rate of biological activity.
Woods End now markets a kit to determine compost maturity, and this spring, a kit is available to test garden-soil microbial activity. Wallace Laboratories of California and other labs test for heavy metals and salt levels as well as for nutrients and organic matter. Contaminated organic residues can cause high levels of the kinds of heavy metals that municipal sludge sometimes contains. Such metals accumulate over time and can be toxic to microorganisms, plants, and people. Good management of organic matter will ease these problems. Alan York, a market-grower in California who uses organic methods, encourages testing to develop "visual confidence." Establishing a baseline measurement for your soils allows you to identify deficient or excess nutrients and metals and gauge the results of your later soil-building efforts. Regular testing and evaluation of the results over several growing seasons allow you to rely more on observation and less on frequent testing.
Labs report wide variations in the quality and content of bagged compost and manure. When possible, buy from local sources and from manufacturers that label the ingredients. If you plan to use large quantities of compost or manure, test samples to see if the product is appropriate for your planned use. If they're to be used in a seed-starting or potting mix, large amounts may kill plants that need a mature soil amendment. Retesting may be necessary in the future if you're unsure whether the manufacturer has consistent criteria for its finished product.
Whether you buy organic amendments or use the ones in your garden, you must manage them the same way. Building organic matter in soils is a slow process, and it may be easier to maintain it than to replace it. The results are clear: using good amendments and growing practices enhances biological activity and conserves organic matter in your soil for the future.
Carrie Chalmers is a professional gardener in Weston, Vermont.

The historic Empress Theatre on Main Street, Magna is kicking off its 2012 season with a silent auction, dinner, and special program at the Hilton Salt Lake City Center on Oct. 21.
Laura Bedore, host of Showtunes Saturday Night on 106.5 FM, will be the guest speaker. Guests will also be given a sneak peek at upcoming shows and be given a front row seat to a special awards ceremony for plays produced this year.
The event will kick off the theater's 6th consecutive season of actively producing plays since the 1930s. Originally opened as a burlesque theater in 1916, providing comic relief for the miners of those days, the theater sat dormant for more than 70 years until Leo Ware reopened its doors in November of 2006 with a stellar performance of "Forever Plaid."
Since its beginning, the building has been purchased, traded, renovated, threatened to be demolished, and then renovated again for its grand return in 2006.
Although the building isn't fully restored yet, the theater still produces classic shoes like "The Music Man," "Oklahoma," and "The Sound of Music" on a regular basis. It's also reportedly haunted, making it a great spot to see a show on Halloween.
Gala tickets are not available at the door, so be sure to order them online before Oct. 17. They are about $25.00 and can be purchased from ezticketlive.com.
Proceeds will go into the production of bigger and better shows at the theater.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
These days, there seems only to be Katrina.
There are other things going on in my life—big things, little things, personal and professional. But even as I refuse to turn on the TV and let my kids be inundated with horrific images, I'm riveted each day by the newspaper and online accounts as this crooked piece of our history unfolds. My daughter is shaken; yesterday she clipped a photo from the cover of Time magazine to show her classmates. My ten-year-old son takes it all deep inside. "Mommy, it seems like everyone just feels sad and angry and all this emotion," he said to me tonight as I stood at the counter reading the New York Times.
I'm gathering up a collection of e-mails: thoughtful comments and questions from friends and NH&G readers, political and environmental commentary (cogent, but inevitable) from the George Lakoffs and the Bill McKibbens, donation requests, even a crass attempt at garnering publicity for a miracle builder who could create environmentally friendly materials out of the rubble (I kid you not).
My friend Elizabeth, whose home and community in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, have been obliterated, sent a link to The Waters That Came, her tribute to the hurricane victims, sung by a twelve-year-old whose home and community have also been destroyed.
My friend Rachel passed along an email from her rabbi; I admired how he addressed the global warming connection (which many of us are still dancing around). He called for "a deep soul-searching for us as individuals, as communities, countries and as global citizens. I am not sure that anyone can deny with integrity that this massive devastation is in part a result of climate change accelerated by global warming. … This tragedy must wake us all up to the part that we each play in this, and each try to change something in our own behavior as a small gesture to those traumatized in New Orleans. I refrained from using a car this week—cycling and walking everywhere instead. An insignificant protest against a greedy, over-consuming world."
It was his admission that his efforts felt insignificant that caught me, though. That, I think, is what's behind the deep hollow I've felt all week as I've gone about my secure, undisturbed, even luxurious, life, donating a few bucks and baking a few cakes for the bake sale my son's class held for the victims. What difference could I make, really? It's all so much huger than me.
We greenies have been spouting off on the devastation global warming will bring for years, of course. I have thick, thick folders full of evidence and reports and dire warnings about the havoc greenhouse gases could wreak. And this week, there's absolutely no satisfaction in declaring ourselves proven right. For me, there's just an oddly removed despair and questioning as I've watched horrifying events unfold from my dry, economically privileged hamlet of Boulder. In the face of what looks like Armageddon, does pushing Energy Star appliances and educating people about the value of low-E windows and good insulation really make any difference? (Oh, I get so dramatic…)
I'm grateful to the Natural Home & Garden readers who reminded me we could—and should—take a stand in the face of this. That we have the power of the press—an ability to rally community and resources.
"When the immediate and short-term crisis of Hurricane Katrina abatees, there will eventually be a rebuilding and long-term housing need across the impacted states," one reader commented. "Is there anything Natural Home & Garden magazine can do to encourage green rebuilding?" Another, a survivor of Hurricane Georges whose cement home, solar radio and lantern withstood that storm's wrath, suggested: "How wonderful it would be to see a team of environmental people go into the ravaged area and get an entire green home up and 'running' BEFORE regular services were available. What a shame if the same vulnerable wooden homes entirely dependent on outside infrastructures were rebuilt again."
I'm reading a lot these days about the opportunity that arises out of crisis—to address our country's economic disparity, to rebuild in more thoughtful ways. I, for one, vow to never use the devastation on the Gulf Coast as "evidence" for my environmental agenda. I do, however, believe that while the world is watching, we have a vast opening to show off the benefits (sometimes life-saving) of building sustainable, self-sufficient housing. That's the not-so-small part we in the Natural Home & Garden community can play. And suddenly, I'm not feeling quite so small anymore.

Continuing on with my reviews of all the Japanese Kit Kats I've acquired in the past couple of months. I've been following (and tasting!) the Japanese Kit Kats for a few years now (since 2006) and I have to say I'm impressed with the new and fun flavors they keep coming out with. When I began it felt like I was limited to green tea, red bean, strawberry and maybe soybean thrown in there. Now the flavors reach all over and I really can't say what to expect next. I like that.
Sweet Potato:
I was immediately interested in this Kit Kat when I first laid eyes on it online. I think the only other Kit Kat that got me so excited were the Pumpkin ones that came out for the past two Halloween seasons. I love sweet potatoes, so I was horribly curious as to how they're lend themselves to this candy.
First, the sweet potatoes shown on the box is a type of dish called daigakuimo where Japanese potato/yam chunks are fried, then covered in a sugar glaze and black sesame seeds. If you ever get the chance to try this, and you'll often see it in bento boxes in Asian markets, I do recommend it.
Ok, back to Kit Kat. The fingers have a wonderful light orange creamy color. They smell sweet and very strong of vanilla and cream. I'm reminded of thick homemade custard or pudding. The flavor mimics the aroma perfectly, as it's very creamy, sweet and heavy on vanilla and caramel flavors. I'm sad to report I get no official sweet potato flavor here. I could get really disappointed by this and let it drag my whole experience with this Kit Kat. Yet, I find myself enjoying it for that really rich custard taste, so much so that I don't care if it's supposed to be sweet potato. It's tasty just as it is. As far as I'm concerned, it's the packaging that lied to me, not the flavor elements of this one.
White and Yellow Peach:
This bag of minis are white chocolate based peach flavored Kit Kats. The packets inside are colored either pink or yellow, yet I haven't been able to taste a difference between the two.They certainly look different from one another though. The pink one is a creamy white, and the yellow a light orange color. For some reason slices of cheddar and American cheese come to mind. They both smell very juicy and peachy. I take a bite of one then the other, and I repeat the process a few times to just say they taste basically the same. The flavor is sweet, lightly of peach which is very juicy and floral with a perfumey smell. The flavoring isn't too strong, and just enough ti cut the sweetness of the white chocolate.
Passion Fruit Kit Kat
This is an interesting little Kit Kat, as it was included as a bonus in a box of Nestle flavored coffee drinks. I'm guessing they're some sort of Valentines Day release, as the packages are covered in hearts. This have a dark chocolate outside with a passion fruit creme between the wafers. The bitter dark chocolate compliments the intensely fruity, juicy tartness of the passion fruit. It's nice with notes of pineapple, apple, cherry, plums, peaches. The bar is beautifully bright and fragrant and really, really tasty. I'm reminded on one of the old regional Tokyo Kit Kats that came out a few years ago that was also stellar.
The bar is has a milk chocolate base, nice and looks like a normal Kit Kat. It's the smell that tells you there's something different about this one. It's a very bright smell of citrus with a strong tart note, and a kiss of hazelnut. It tastes like a normal milk chocolate Kit Kat, and despite the added flavors, and the chocolate remains the main flavor in this. It's supplemented by very nice tart citrus note, it's neither orange nor lemon. I also get a hint of hazelnut there too, which I find confusing as there's no hazelnut in this Kit Kat. Very interesting. I really like it and overall I'm reminded of the flavors of Manner Biscuits that my Mom is crazy for.
Two thumbs up Japan! Keep 'em coming!

After the award ceremony, SLmag pulled Gagnon and fellow skater Bucky Lasek aside for a quick chat.
First, our interview with Gagnon:
SLM: Your last run in the vert competition was flawless, take us through it.
PLG: Well, I really had one subtle flaw before the 720 in that run, but I was really happy with the ending. I went switch heelflip frontside air to switch heel 360 to nollie heel 360, I've never done that before.
SLM: (Scratches head for a moment, pairing the skater lingo with what we just saw on the ramp) Well, how did it compare to other runs you've had?
PLG: That's really the run I've been looking for all year and it finally worked out so I'm psyched.
SLM: Are you looking to do pull it off again in Las Vegas (the next top on the Dew Tour)?
PLG: Definitely. I'm trying to better that run though; you do it once, and then you're trying to improve it. So I definitely want to start off with that run in Vegas and then hopefully do something a little bit better.
We also got a question in for Bucky Lasek, who took third place in Saturday's vert competition:
SLM: You look so chill up on the ramp. How do you stay relaxed before you drop in?
BL: If I stress myself out, it doesn't do me any good. If you think about skating, about competing too much, it'll drive you crazy. If I think about it at night, when I try to go through my runs in my head I'll keep falling and have to start over so it gets kind of stressful. When it comes to riding, there's just nothing you can do about it until you're in the moment and you just need to let it go. So, no stress.
When SLmag spoke to Gagnon before the finals and asked him about his biggest weakness, he pondered for a moment and responded, "I dunno, I don't like to think about that stuff." PLG's ridiculous finals run, which earned him a 94 on the scoreboard, reinforced the skateboarder's mantra: "think happy thoughts." It seems that Bucky holds to the same philosophy.

Thrombophlebitis is inflammation of a vein (usually in an extremity, especially one of the legs) that occurs in response to a blood clot in the vessel. When it occurs in a vein near the surface of the skin, it is known as superficial thrombophlebitis, a minor disorder commonly identified by a red, tender vein.
Deep-vein thrombophlebitis (affecting the larger veins farther below the skin's surface) is more serious. It may produce less-pronounced symptoms at first (half of all cases are asymptomatic) but carries the risks of pulmonary embolism (when the clot detaches from its place of origin and travels to the lung) and chronic venous insufficiency (impaired outflow of blood through the veins), resulting in dermatitis, increased skin pigmentation and swelling.
Thrombophlebitis is common, with high rates of incidence among women and older people.
When to Call Your Doctor
Call your doctor if you have a painful, swollen vein that does not disappear in a few days, or if you have unexplained swelling in an arm or leg.
- Superficial thrombophlebitis: a red, engorged, cordlike vein, associated with localized swelling, pain or tenderness.
- Deep-vein thrombophlebitis: generalized swelling, warmth and redness in the affected limb; distention of superficial veins; bluish skin color in the limb or toes (cyanosis); and rarely, fever and chills.
- Stagnation of blood flow due to immobility. This is common among bedridden patients (such as heart patients and those who have undergone any type of major or orthopedic surgery, especially of the hip or knee) and healthy persons who sit or lie still for an extended period --for example, on a long trip.
- Blood vessel injury, caused by trauma, intravenous catheters or needles, chemotherapeutic agents, or infectious organisms.
- Conditions that increase the tendency for blood to coagulate, such as a familial deficiency in anti-clotting factors or disorders like systemic lupus erythematosus.
- Pregnancy and varicose veins are associated with a higher risk of superficial thrombophlebitis.
- Deep-vein thrombophlebitis is associated with a number of different cancers.
Be sure to stand up and walk around often on long trips. Following a heart attack or major surgery, low doses of an anticoagulant (such as heparin or warfarin) may be recommended. Getting up and walking around again as soon as possible following either of those events is also advised.
Thrombophlebitis occurs when a blood clot and inflammation develop in one or more of your veins, typically in your legs. On rare occasions, thrombophlebitis can affect veins in your arms. The condition is one of several managed by doctors with Frederick Regional Health System's Vascular Surgery Department.
We apply a multidisciplinary team approach to providing expedient and expert care in the management of simple as well as complex vascular disorders. The members within the division devote their full energies toward a better understanding of vascular disease and raising the standards of vascular surgical practice.
The affected vein in thrombophlebitis may be near the surface of your skin (called superficial thrombophlebitis) or deep within a muscle (called deep-vein thrombophlebitis). The cause often is prolonged inactivity, such as sitting during a long period of travel in an airplane or automobile or lengthy bed rest after surgery.
Doctors can usually diagnose superficial thrombophlebitis based on your medical history and a physical examination. Deep-vein thrombophlebitis is harder to diagnose, so the doctor may require further tests.
The doctor will usually perform a venous duplex examination, a type of imaging test, to see how efficiently the veins are returning blood to your heart. This test also detects blood clots in the legs. While you lie on your back, a small ultrasound imaging device is placed on the skin over the major veins in the leg, allowing the technician to both see the veins and listen to the flow of blood. Pictures may be taken at various sites.
The physicians within the Frederick Memorial Hospital Vascular Surgery Department treat thrombophlebitis in various ways, including the following treatment options:
- If superficial thrombophlebitis is the diagnosis, your doctor will recommend you be up and active. You also should be checked frequently to make sure that the blood clot does not progress.
- Patients with deep-vein thrombophlebitis may require hospitalization, though some patients can be seen on an outpatient basis. Bed rest and elevation of the affected limb are essential. The doctor will usually prescribe an anti-clotting medication, usually heparin, to be given intravenously for seven to ten days. Outpatients are given anti-clotting pills.
- Clot-dissolving agents, such as urokinase or tissue plasminogen activator, may be administered to resolve the condition.
- Special elastic support stockings may be prescribed to aid circulation in the lower limbs.
- The doctor may implant a small filter in the main vein of your abdomen to prevent clots in the legs from going to the lung.

Hair masks are not like the conditioners of old, which merely covered the surface. They are loaded with fix-it formulas: strengthening mineral complexes coated with polymers that cling to the hair shaft; silicone-and-protein combos that wrap around the cuticle; ceramides and fatty acids that rebuild resilience; and antioxidants that fight free radicals and increase shine. Drugstore brand or luxury label, hair-repair masks are aimed right at the needs of midlife women.
One big reason is that we're growing our hair out at an age when women used to think they had to cut it off. But over-40 hair needs help to look good. "Coloring removes the fatty lipid layer, making hair soak up water and swell to the breaking point; that's made worse by heat-styling," says Teca Gillespie, a scientist for Pantene.
"After 40, the diameter of the hair shaft shrinks. Treatments can help: Although hair is dead, it still has a keratin structure that benefits from reinforcement," says David Orentreich, MD, assistant professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine.
"Hair is further weakened by decreased estrogen levels during menopause, or in some cases by increased testosterone," says Debra Luftman, MD, a Beverly Hills dermatologist. "Check out a typical 45-year-old's hair follicle under a microscope and you'll see what looks like peeling house paint. Hair-repair treatments now incorporate technologies similar to those we use for dehydrated, photoaged skin."
Look for two key ingredients in a rehab cream, Gillespie advises: "Fatty alcohols (stearyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol), which are crucial for the hair's texture, and silicones (dimethicone, cyclomethicone) for frizz control and to increase shine."
David Evangelista, celebrity stylist and creative director of Cornelia Day Resort, in New York City, suggests using a mask "biweekly and always the night before coloring. Apply the mask generously, use a wide-tooth comb to distribute, then do a gentle scalp massage for 60 seconds, moving the pads of your fingers in small circles so nutrients can reach the roots."

Summit County Clerk Kent Jones said he was pleased with the strong steady turnout so far and that the process was moving smoothly. The Richins building at Kimball Junction had logged the most voters of the four early-voting locations in the county as of Wednesday afternoon.
Jones also reported that 1,240 new voters had registered since the June primary election, bringing the total number of registered voters in Summit County to 26,099.
Based on those who registered with a specific political party, Summit County's Republicans attracted the most new voters. Their number increased from 7,123 to 7,787 between the primary and the last day of registration. Those registered as Democrats increased from 3,806 to 4,227.
Even with the new registrations, however, Summit County's electorate has shrunk since the last presidential election in 2008. There were 27,277 names on the voter rolls that year.
Summit County Deputy Clerk Ryan Cowley explained, the clerk's office made a concerted effort to clean up the voter rollls following the last General Election and were able to purge many who had moved out of the county or might have been listed under maiden names, etc.
The redistricting process and new technology also helped to make the lists more accurate, he added.
Early voting continues weekdays through Nov. 2 at the Kamas Town Hall, the Summit County Courthouse, the Sheldon Richins Building and The Marsac Building.

923: Strunk and White
|Strunk and White
Title text: The best thing about Strunk/White fanfiction is that it's virtually guaranteed to be well written.
[edit] Explanation
The 1918 writing style guide The Elements of Style, by Cornell University professor William Strunk Jr. and New Yorker writer E.B. White (perhaps better known as the author of Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little), is commonly referred to as "Strunk & White". In this comic, the current editors of Strunk & White are clarifying a matter of style pertaining to the style guide, an instance of meta humor, a recurring theme in xkcd.
Erotic fan fiction is a genre in which fans make up erotic stories involving characters from non-erotic stories. "Slash fiction" is a subgenre that pairs characters of the same sex: These pairings are denoted by using the "/" to separate the paired characters, hence the name "slash fiction". This convention is generally thought to originate with the Kirk/Spock pairing in Star Trek fan fiction, wherein "K/S" was used for such romantic or erotic works of fan fiction, while "K&S" was used for non-romantic works. This comic imagines a similar distinction being necessary for "Strunk & White" vs. "Strunk/White".
The title text comments that authors of Strunk/White fan fiction must have read The Elements of Style, which would make them better writers.
[edit] Transcript
- [Three dignified-looking editors of Strunk & White's "The Elements of Style" before a desk with a computer. One is seated and types the following:]
- Dear Internet,
- we, the current editors of Strunk & White's The Elements of Style, must—with great reluctance—clarify a point of orthography:
- "Strunk & White" should be used for the style manual and "Strunk/White" for the erotic fan fiction pairing.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, early detection and treatment of many sight-threatening diseases may prevent visual loss.
When it comes to children, the most important preventive steps are routine eye examinations, visual screening tests, and preventing eye trauma.
Newborns are examined in the nursery for eye infections and eye disorders. Children should receive their first comprehensive eye examination by about age three, unless a specific condition or history of family childhood vision problems warrants an earlier examination.
Eye trauma is an important cause of vision loss in children. Eye trauma refers to any injury to the eye. Prevent Blindness America states that of the 2.4 million eye injuries that occur in the US each year, more than a third involve children under age 17. As a parent, you can help your child avoid eye trauma with the proper use of safety equipment during sports and recreational activities.

Rated 2.8 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by KatherineJKT beautiful, lightweight, a little gritty I got this quilt on sale for less than half the advertised price. Because of that, I'd totally recommend this product. I'd hesitate for full retail price. The quilt is beautiful. The colors are a bit more subtle than online, which I think makes them even nicer - the green online looks much more harsh than in person especially. The quilt is also super lightweight, barely more than 2 pieces of fabric sown together, which is exactly what we were looking for - a summer quilt when temperatures got hot. Other reviewers talk about how the quilt sheds sand. That hasn't been my experience yet, but I also haven't tried to wash the quilt so far. the fabric is a bit scratchy though, which would not be ideal if it were directly against my skin while I slept. No problem with threads coming loose yet, but I've only had the quilt for about a week, so I'll update if necessary. All in all, this quilt is so gorgeous and so well priced that I feel just fine with the so-so texture of the quilt. May 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ninietta This product is beautiful I love my new quilt. It brightens my room, just the right amount. The pattern is very nice and the color combination is great! I was expecting a bit more of a traditional quilt feeling, but it is more like a comforter that is made with quilt stitching, so if you're looking for a heavier material and more like a true quilt I wouldn't recommend this. I love it though, it'll be perfect for spring/summer too. March 31, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by XXxx Shame All the way from Jaipur, the art mecca of India...What a beautiful quilt! I was loving it up until I washed it. Practically all the threading came out! If I want to use it next season, Iwill have to find a quilt maker to repair it and put more durable threading. Otherwise, the fabric and pattern are nice. But definitely not worth $80. Thank goodness I bought on sale for $25! August 13, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Antares99 Filled with sand. It is not that bright as portrayed. But it looked nice and soft at the beginning. And then my leather sofa was filled with sand. After the wash it became worse. It might be even dangerous for health. I had to rid of it. What a shame World Market! August 3, 2013

Christian Grey has had us in a total—ahem—bind lately, since all we really want to do is read about him and his exploits in the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy. There, we admit it. We're hooked, and we totally think Alexander Skarsgard should play him on the big screen, all right?
But apparently not everyone shares our lust for E.L. James's super-hot stories of love and bondage. The Associated Press reports some public libraries in Florida, Georgia and Wisconsin either have pulled the books or have decided not to carry them at all, even though the trilogy claims spots one, two and three on the New York Times best-seller list this week. One library, in Brevard County, Florida, put 19 copies of the books on its shelves but then removed them—even though 200 people were on the waiting list.
Critics call the series "semipornographic" and "erotica." But Random House's Paul Bogaards tells AP banning the books is censorship.
"We believe the Brevard County Public Library System is indulging in an act of censorship and essentially is saying to library patrons, 'We will judge what you can read,' " he tells the news service.
We're just glad we've got the books in our hot little hands. Great literature? Of course not. But great fun? Oh, yes. Gotta go—Christian is calling us.

High-tech Dust Foils Pests
By: Barbara Richardson
Beginning in spring of 2001, gardeners have an important new tool to protect their plants from pests. Best of all, it's a familiar and completely safe material, kaolin clay, a common ingredient of both toothpaste and aspirin as well as a host of common products such as ceramics, paints, and papers. Most Americans probably know kaolin best as one of the key ingredients of the medicine Kaopectate. So how did such a familiar material become the lastest hot item in pest control?
In the early 1990s, the USDA's Agricultural Research Service scientists Drs. Michael Glenn and Gary Puterka, Kearneysville, West Virginia, were charged with finding less toxic alternatives to the chemicals used in orchards. They knew that using dusts to repel insects has an ancient history, and that talcum, mica, and kaolin dusts had been studied for agriculture as far back as 1928.
But unlike researchers of 70 years ago, Glenn and Puterka had the help of New Jersey-based Engelhard Corporation, a company with expertise in surface chemistry and materials science. Engelhard developed a new material, a type of particle film using "engineered microscopic particulates to form a semicontinuous, porous barrier." They've trademarked the technology as HPF Technology, and the first product produced using it is Surround Crop Protectant. Engineered kaolin was chosen as the active ingredient because it meets size and shape specifications, is essentially non-toxic, and has specific light-reflecting qualities.
Surround works by coating plant surfaces with a powdery film. Some pests are repelled by the light reflected from the coated plant's surface; others simply don't recognize the host because it feels different. Further, the particles stick to pests and become a powerful enough irritant to make it leave. Finally, some pests simply can't hold onto the coated surface and fall to the ground.
Much of the initial field research involved apples and pears. Apple pests controlled by Surround include leafrollers and leafhoppers; codling moth, plum curculio, apple sucker, stink bugs, apple maggot, and thrips are suppressed. On pears, the difficult to manage pear psylla is controlled; thrips, leafhoppers, codling moth, stink bug, and mites are suppressed.
Among vegetable garden pests, use Surround against Japanese beetles, tarnished plant bugs, and Colorado potato beetles.
Because the material doesn't have an insecticidal effect, pest resistance is not a concern. It can be applied right up to the day of harvest, and simply washes or rubs off.
